I am sure that I am not the only person who did not bid on your auction because of one of these reasons. That means that you may now be relisting your item, or selling it for a lot less than what you could have. The following is a rant. A rant that contains my opinions, which may differ entirely from your opinions. You are allowed to have your own opinions. You have been warned.
#10 You have a bunch of stupid characters in your title and or listing: [email protected]@K A+++++++ quality jibber jabber. This listing must have been placed by a nine year old. A nine year old that is not likely to actually mail me the merchandise if I win, so I am not going to bid. [email protected]@K at me not bid on your auction.
#9 I can not tell how much you are charging for shipping: The Shipping section says "please see listing for shipping details" and the listing is barren, like a wasteland. With no mention of these elusive charges anywhere, I will have to move on. I may "ask the seller a question" but then again I may not.
#8 You do not accept Paypal: This is the year 2007. Get a Paypal account. This would have been listed higher, a lot higher like damn near #1, but I did not want to seem shallow and superficial…heh heh. The truth is I have a Paypal account to buy junk on eBay with. If I use any other means of payment, I have to have approval from the family corporation in triplicate and I am really not prepared to beg for the release of $6.50 to buy your item, when I have those funds just sitting in my Paypal account…waiting. Yeah Yeah I understand that Paypal is going to charge you 37 cents in fees, but that money order that you accept is going to charge ME and that is out of the equation. I can send you a check, and wait around until it clears but by then I could have found another listing from someone who understands that I have a Paypal account and am willing to use it.
#7 Your description is junk: You are a salesperson when you type up your description. Sell it to me. Do not give me the name of the item and hope it is what I was looking for. I have bought a few things that I was not specifically looking for because the picture and the description made me think, "wow that is cool." If I do not know what a 'VINTAGE 1961 HICKY MA JIGGY" is, I am not going to buy yours. There are indeed collectors out there who may bid, but you are missing out on a lot of people by not telling us what the hell this Hicky ma Jiggy is and does. Here's an example that had the following title:
Wizards Duel figures and BGIME 13 Lord of the Rings
What the hell is that you say? Well read on…
Battle Games in Middle Earth magazine number 13 AND the figures needed to play the Wizards Duel game!! The magazine is 21 full color pages of information pertaining to the Lord of the Rings table top miniatures game. This particular issue (#13) includes 6 pages on the tactics of the game, helping you to better command your forces, a step-by-step painting guide for the horses of Rohan, and a modelling workshop demonstrating effective techniques for adding realistic details to your scenery. It also includes the rules for an exciting mini-game called Wizard's duel.
This allows players to re-create the confrontation between Gandalf and Saruman. I have also included metal figures of both wizards and the seeing stone called the Palantir. That is the cool black crystal ball that the flaming eye of Sauron shows up in during several scenes of the movies. Not only are these figures perfect for this mini-game, but they are great to add to your armies as well. They are in very cool action poses as opposed to the other poses, where especially Saruman looks kind of bored and tired, leaning on his staff. Having access to the Palantir increases Saruman's power in the battle game as well, so adding this mini to your collection will make your games that much more challenging. With the other poses Saruman either has the Palantir or he doesn't. If he has it in his hand on the model, he is very powerful. If he has to be in contact with a separate model of it, he is still powerful, but his location on the board has a whole new meaning, as if you can get him to move away from the Palantir, it decreases his power. To me this is a much more realistic approach.
As for Gandalf, he looks cool with his gnarled staff extended ready to use some magic! The contents of this auction will come in a bubble mailer with heavy cardboard on both sides of the magazine. The figures, which are unpainted and unglued, will be in a bag wrapped in bubble wrap to help cushion them even further. As usual I will try to get these in the mail within
2 days of receiving the Paypal payment from the winner. Thank you for looking.
Wow. I clearly know what this listing offers and if I were on eBay looking for a gift for my Nephew who happens to really like the Lord of the Rings movies, I may be inclined to bid on this. He may not play the table top battle game, whatever that is, but the description says that the rules and the figures needed for a mini-game are included in this listing, so at least I know he can get some use from them.
Now imagine if you saw this listing:
Wizards Duel figures and BGIME 13 Lord of the Rings
2 wizards, a sphere on a stand, and a magazine. Do not bid unless you intend to pay.
??? I am still clueless, oh well I must not be in the club…I will move on. I'll add that the last line is another of my pet peeves about eBay. I understand that you may have been burned by deadbeat bidders who did not pay, but honestly, do you think the deadbeats will see your request of "DO NOT BID UNLESS YOU INTEND TO PAY" and think, "oh man, I was going to bid and then giggle about not paying for a week until this dude gives me a non-paying strike, but he said not to!!" This request always makes me chuckle and think about including instructions for something that says 1. Open box 2. Read these directions 3. Breathe in 4. Breathe out 5. Repeat breathing for the rest of your life.
#6 You can not spell: I did a search for super cool hicky ma jiggy and got 100 listings. I looked over them all, but none were what I wanted or the price that I was willing to pay. Yet there, alone in the dark, desolate corner, was your listing, which was the hicky ma jiggy that I wanted. It was the right size, the right color and the right price. The only problem was that you listed it as a hiky ma jigy and it did not turn up on my search, nor anyone else's. Do you wonder why your listing has 6 views and the rest of the hicky ma jiggy's have hundreds? It's because they can spell correctly.
#5 Busted goods: eBaying broken junk works for some people, but I really do not want to bid, wait, watch, hope, win, wait for shipping, get the item, feel the excitement of seeing it in the mailbox, bring it in, open it up…and then have to fix it. There are people out there who will bid on an electronic device that does not work because they are hoping that it is the circuit board that is bad on yours so that they can get the flux capacitor off of it, and replace theirs. I am not one of them.
#4 Item is in Australia: Sorry, but I can not bid on items where the postage to get to the US is more than the item AND I have to wait a month or longer to get it. This is really just a rant, as nothing can be done about it, but bear in mind if you are a potential buyer that there are some locations that it may be best to avoid. I know Canadians might feel this way about the entire rest of the World as their Customs charges can get pretty expensive, too. Not really anything you can do to get me to bid, I am just saying…
#3 Starting bid is way too high: It may surprise you that I do not consider this to be the number one reason to not even consider a bid, but I honestly feel that this is the 3rd most important reason. My absolute favorite is when the description itself says this super deluxe hicky ma jiggy retails for $25 — and the starting bid is $24.99 plus $6 shipping. That is just a little worse than the listings that say I am clearing out my store inventory to make room for new items. This item listed for $25 but is now OOP ( out of print) and the starting bid + shipping charges add up to be equal to or greater than $25. Ummm think about this. You had it listed in your store for $25 for so long that it is now out of print and you expect to get $25 for it now. If it were actually worth $25 it would not be in need of you 'clearing' it from your inventory. I honestly do not care how cool something is or how much I want or think I need it…I am on eBay to get a deal. I am not interested in bidding exactly what I can pay for your item in a store and having to wait a week to see if I won it or not.
#2 Blurry/Dark/nearly useless or the wrong picture: This is not quite as bad as no picture at all (that is so bad it gets its own listing…see below) But the picture is worth a thousand words. I have already mentioned the actual words of the description and that is usually way less than 1000. Do you want a thousand words screaming DO NOT BID ON THIS AUCTION? I didn't think so. I see way too many listings where it says right in the description something like "These miniatures were painted by an Uber Pro painter and they rock hardcore, but my crappy camera sucks so trust me they look WAY better in person than what these Shatty pictures show. Another example of this is when the pictures are too dark, blurry or both because the lack of adequate lighting severely affects the focus, making it difficult to see the details — or even some of the item that you are looking at. A case in point:
Really cool description from above:
Same really cool description … but…
Which of these would you bid on? I would not bid on that second one unless I knew that those figures were worth $10 each and the current bid was $1 or $2. If I did not know what the figures were supposed to be, I would be lost. The description says the wizards are in cool poses, but that picture does not show that. This means again that a lot of potential bidders do not bid because they do not even know what you are selling. You can clearly see the figures on the magazine in the good photo to give you an understanding that there is indeed coverage in there about the particular figures included.
This also happens when you are looking at a listing for an authentic and fully functional Luke Sky Walker lightsaber with instructions and an old Jedi Master to train you on its use, but the photo is of the Emperor holding Darth Vader's lightsaber. Can I truly be sure that Yoda or Obi-Wan will be in the shipment that I am bidding on if the Dark Lord of the Sith is pictured? I may just have to wait around for another listing of a real lightsaber…I could use the eBay question thing, but if the Emperor is involved, I can not truly be sure that he will not just cover the answer to my question with the shroud of the dark side…
#1 No photo: This is what I think when I see the following:
"Check out my auction. It is a Babe Ruth rookie card in great condition."
No picture? How do you expect me to put a value on something like this without a photo??
I see an awful lot of listings for individual miniatures where they go so far as to include the manufacturers item number, but not a photo. Remember that the first photo is free so you are ripping yourself off by not including one. If I like the description of the miniature, for instance "Shadow Dragon with treasure pile UberCool minis #123," I may go to Google image search and pull up Ubercool 123 and look for a photo. However there are Thousands of minis made by Ubercool minis, so after I check a few I get tired of all of the extra work and I stop. That leaves me no choice but to skip all of the hundreds and hundreds of listings without pics for a week or two until another cool sounding one comes along.

Elder care
One of the interesting revelations that occurred in the development of the OurFamilyWizard® website was to see families sign-up for the service not to manage their parenting relationship, but rather to manage the care of their elder parents. We have had many families sign-up for the service and flip the roles to meet their needs. So instead of the parent having a parent account, they have the elder parent setup with a child account and the child takes on the parent account. This allows the children of an elder parent the ability to go into the website and setup shared records for a schedule, medical records, journals and more.
This shared access can increase a family's ability to make sure their elder parent is being thoroughly taken care of. Also, the OurFamilyWizard® website provides a means to keep a shared repository of information such as medical records, doctor's visits, and prescriptions.
You can also use the OurFamilyWizard® professional account to give access to elder care providers and doctors. The third party account is a great way to keep the rest of the family in the loop without sacrificing your elder parent's privacy.

Health News of Friday, 7 February 2014
Source: Abdul Karim Naatogmah/citifmonline.com
The Health Insurance Service Providers Association (HISPA) has threatened to sue the National Health Insurance Authority (NHIA) for the accumulated arrears owed health service providers in the country.
This threat followed recent complaints by managers of both public and private health facilities that the NHIA owed them huge sums of monies for services rendered to National Health Insurance Service card holders.
Director of operations and communication of HISPA, Mr. Anthony Ameka, issued the threat at a public forum in Tamale.
He disclosed, "The current situation as we speak now; NHIA is indebted to National Health Insurance Service Providers for five (5) solid months; the situation is worse for private facilities that have to bear all the cost ranging from salaries to medical consumables."
He emphasized, "Persistent delay in payment of claims to the providers is having serious adverse effect on the finances of the providers, capacity to procure essential drugs, non-drug consumables and provision of investment."
Mr. Ameka warned the NHIA against further delays in defraying the accumulated debt owed service providers.
"HISPAG will henceforth institute a legal action to demand interest on any amount delayed beyond the stipulated period; the reason being that whenever providers delay payment to the SSNIT and GRA they are taken to Court to compel them to pay the principal amount with penalty depending on the number of days of payment delays."
He therefore called on government to immediately establish an independent body similar to the Public Utility Regulatory Commission (PURC) to be responsible for reviewing charges by NHIS service providers.
This in his estimation will result to the automatic adjustment of prices and tariffs in line with the current unpredicted economic circumstances that have hit the country.
He implied that the prevailing situation in the country with respect to the NHIA delays in payment of claims to service providers could be a set back to the attainment of the Millennium Development Goals 4 and 5.
"NHIA has a pivotal role to play if Ghana is to achieve the MDG 4 and 5; however the current situation prevailing in the country with respect to the NHIA payment of claims may be a set back to the attainment of this goal."
The Health Insurance Service Providers Association of Ghana (HISPA) is an association of health institutions providing health care services to the public nationwide.
One of HISPA's core objectives is to offer support and advisory services to all members on matters such as tax and legal protection against professional practice which are likely to have negative effects on the operations of the providers.
The association also intends to protect its members against unfair treatment by both private and national health insurance schemes operating in the country.

Was Peter Mukerjea shielded for 10 weeks, if so by whom and why? - News X
Sat, Nov 21, 2015, 07:21 AM
In a sensational twist to the Sheena Bora murder case, Indrani's husband Peter Mukerjea has been arrested by the CBI officials. Peter's arrest is the 4th in the Sheena murder case and interestingly came on a day when CBI filed its chargesheet in the case. Sources say that CBI has claimed that Peter was aware of Sheena murder before Indrani?s arrest.

Two strengths
1. Skill players. Three players — Jimmy Van Deilan, Chris Colbreth and Robbie Williams — are battling for the starting quarterback spot. Northside will keep its running backs fresh by spreading the workload. Rogers has the most experience and could get the bulk of the carries. Colbreth will get time at tailback if he doesn't start at quarterback. Jeremy Smith provides depth as a rusher. The top receivers are Will Scott and Lucio and Mauricio Ojeda. The Mustangs need to get more production out of this group after being shut out against Seminole in the spring and scoring 12 points against Berkeley Prep in the preseason.
2. Kicking game. Rogers and Cory Johnson have strong legs. Both could be used at punter or kicker. That could be handy with a team fielding so many newcomers.
Two questions
1. What about depth? There is not much of it. In the spring, Dobson said he has 24 players and is averaging about 18 for practices. That means one-platoon football is a must. And because of the numbers, or lack thereof, there will be no junior varsity program this season. The Mustangs have a brutal stretch of games in the first five weeks that include Orlando First Academy, Fort Meade and Fort Walton Beach.
2. Can the linemen hold up? The offensive and defensive lines are a concern. Austin Sheldon has the most size at 6-foot-4, 275 pounds. Cory Johnson could develop into a force. But there is not much experience after that. In the spring game, Seminole controlled the line of scrimmage in a 39-0 win. "We have completely new guys," Dobson said.
Bob Putnam, Times staff writer
Coach: Andre Dobson (first season) | Last season: 7-3 | Class: A, District 5 | Colors: Royal blue and white
New coach Andre Dobson inherited a program decimated by graduation. Northside lost 14 seniors. And two other players, Seth Cole and John Stephens, transferred to Calvary Christian. That leaves the Mustangs with two returning varsity players, Cory Johnson and Seth Rogers.

The EG Jansen High School first team rugby coach who shoved the referee after a match and swore at him has apologised, Beeld reported on Wednesday.
Schalk Snyman said on Tuesday he was "very sad" about the incident with Mlungiseleli Mdashe.
"Everybody can see on the video what happened, and the context makes no difference, an offence stays an offence," Snyman was quoted saying.
His future would be decided at a disciplinary hearing on Wednesday.
According to Jurie Coetzee, head of the Valke Rugby Union, and Leon de Beer, headmaster of EG Jansen High School in Boksburg, Snyman had been provisionally banned from any involvement with the Valke and the school, pending the hearing's outcome.
Mdashe said he was considering "a very serious charge of assault, intimidation and undermining my authority". He said he might proceed with a civil case, depending on the outcome of the disciplinary hearing.
"In the end, I want rugby to win. I hope the right decision will be taken," Mdashe said.
Snyman attempted to contact Mdashe on Monday and Tuesday to apologise, but Mdashe, acting on the advice of his lawyers, refused to speak to him. – Sapa

Created to shed some light on the design work that went into Sakura Taisen 2, this 152 page book is roughly split 50/50 between colour pages filled with illustrations and interviews with a wide range of staff members.
The colour section starts off with a thorough look over each individual member of the Hana Gumi, showing both final coloured works as well as design roughs and notes. Later sections go on to cover support/side characters with less detail but still including otherwise unseen rough sketches and notes.
This then gives way to the animation/CG section, which goes over a few important scenes in the game and compares stills of the final sequences with their storyboard equivalent, again with notes. The CG section focuses on the battle sections, showing close ups of enemies and allies, as well as notes and again more design sketches.
The last half is devoted to interviews – the VA portions are actually quite short, with more space given over to the producer, programmer, designer, composer, etc.
Finally there are instructions on how to turn the two large pull out sheets of printed colour card at the very end into a 3D replica of Grand Imperial Theatre that serves as the central location in the game.

General 3B Regimen Advice
Hey fellow 3Bees :)
Here's what's going on w/my hair.. What's your regimen like? Any products that solve some of these issues?
The general properties of my hair:
Density: Low/Thin
Porosity: Medium
It dries out easily.. and I have to use gels and oils sparingly to not weigh it down..
I pulled a few strands by the ends (individually) and they streeeetched before popping. So, from what I've read, that means I need more protein..?
I really want to try:
Honeysuckle Rose Shampoo
GPB Protein Balance Conditioner
Aveda Humectant Pomade
I've also read great things about:
BWC Leave-In Conditioner
Curl Junkie Curl Fix Hair Treatment
Any advice on other products or second-day styling products?
All in all, I'm hoping to give my hair the moisture it needs without weighing it down.
Any help would be so appreciated!! :toothy8:

Build It: Be Your Own Broadcaster
Afew short years ago, I thought Survivor's success was a sign of the apocalypse. How could that scriptless, artless wonder be so popular? In 2006, the rise of YouTube has made Survivor look like Citizen Kane. Small wonder, really: For years, robust content-creation tools have been available cheaply to millions, and software to access it is even more ubiquitous. But the distribution model still has its feet planted in the old world; sure, I can use YouTube, but I can't control it. What if I want to manage my look and feel, offer subscriptions to my podcasts and streaming video, and closely integrate their aesthetics into a distinct package? In short, what if I want my content to have a Matt Tait look and feel?
I'd go ahead and set up my own Internet broadcasting center, that's what I'd do. In fact, I already have, using an Apple Xserve. No other system supports streaming and podcasting as deeply. I'll show you how simple it is to set up, and who knows, maybe you'll help drag broadcasting into the new world, too.How Will You Communicate? >

My Featured Seller interview: http://www.etsy.com/storque/spotlight/featured-seller-rubadubbuddies-11128/
I receive such satisfaction when I create. And so it goes without saying that I enjoy creating each RubaDub Buddy. However, I've come to learn that my creations are not limited to hooded bath towels. They include the smiles on the faces of a grandma, mom, nephew, daughter, or friend who enjoys these loveable Buddies!
My six children have inspired the idea,which began in a store with our oldest daughter as we plotted how to create each Buddy, scheming what color of flower petals we could do, or what shape the dog's ears should be, or how many spots the ladybug would have. Our other children have added to the discovery of each design, whether it has been to model or simply suggest another spike for the dinosaur or pointed ears for the pig. Each…

The first luncheon was held on December 6th, 2016, Ms. Wine introduced the program and had the students set goals.
Commendation Card Exchange
Student volunteers helped Ms. Alvarez with the exchange of commendation cards.
This is part of our Positive Behavior Intervention (PBIS) program where our students get commendation cards for following expected behavior. They then have the opportunity to exchange the cards for prizes.
Showcase Visit
On November 30th, we had directors from the Department of Education, principals, assistant principals, coaches and teachers from others schools visiting us. They were learning about our peer observations and instructional best practices. At PS 150Q, our teachers learn from each other through peer observations.
To learn more about this process, read an article from Education World.

Rangers give Elvis Andrus first day off in Minnesota matinee
Texas Rangers shortstop Elvis Andrus is out of the lineup on Thursday for the first time this season.
Manager Ron Washington had been looking for a way to give Andrus a day of rest. The 12:10 p.m. start at Minnesota after a night game was the ideal opportunity, Washington said.
Andrus had been one of only two major-league shortstops to start all of his team's games this season. Alexei Ramirez of the Chicago White Sox is the only shortstop who can make that claim.
Rookie Luis Sardinas will replace Andrus at shortstop and also bat second.
The lineups:
DH Shin-Soo Choo
SS Luis Sardinas
1B Mitch Moreland
3B Adrian Beltre
RF Alex Rios

text: Self-management By Mayo Clinic Staff Print Lifestyle and home remediesAlthough there's no cure for primary lateral sclerosis, you can make a few lifestyle choices to preserve muscle function for as long as possible: Stay active. Continue activity or exercise programs as long as you can comfortably and safely do so. Staying active may help you keep your existing function and slow the progression of the disease. Be sure you stay safe, keeping in mind that your muscle weakness puts you at higher risk of tripping and falling. Eat a healthy diet. Because PLS can cause your activity level to slow down, be sure you're eating a nutritious diet to avoid excessive weight gain and added pressure on your joints. Coping and supportPeriods of feeling down about having primary lateral sclerosis are expected and normal. Dealing with the reality of an incurable, progressive disease can be challenging. To cope with the disease and its effects, consider these tips: Seek emotional support. Family and friends can be great sources of comfort and support when you're wrestling with the emotional aspects of long-term disease. Because primary lateral sclerosis is an uncommon diagnosis, it might be a challenge to find a local support group for people with your condition. However, some online discussion groups are available, and it may be helpful to see how others have coped with the disease. Get professional help if you need it. When faced with a chronic illness, it's not unusual to become overwhelmed at times. Seek out professional counseling for another perspective, or if you're struggling with depression and need advice on treatment. Know and use resources available to you. If you reach a point where your disease is restricting your activities significantly, ask your doctor about devices designed to help you stay independent. In addition, there are social services available to people with disabilities of all kinds. Try to learn all you can about the resources available to you. Sometimes relying on your community for help can strengthen ties in new ways.

Roast one bunch (approximately 4 medium) beets in the oven at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes, until they are tender. Meanwhile, (as the beets are roasting) slice into wedges 3 large ripe tomatoes and 3 ripe peaches (cut peach wedges thinner than the tomatoes). Place in a large mixing bowl. When beets are cool enough to handle, slip their skins off under cool running water, halve them, slice them, and add them to the bowl. Drizzle with a generous amount of good olive oil and season with salt and freshly ground pepper. Toss and transfer to a large serving bowl or platter. Served at room temperature, this dish compliments most any summer dinner. Note: This salad can easily be made without the addition of beets, but the texture and flavor is compimented by their addition.
Tomato Tips: Look for specialty or heirloom tomatoes. Ripen upside down at room temperature, not in direct sunlight. Tomatoes should not be refrigerated, as they lose flavor when chilled. A serrated knife is best for cutting.

Don't Expect Too Much From Wheeler
In today's New York Post columnist Steve Serby discusses Zack Wheeler's first start, scheduled for the second game of today's day-nigh doubleheader with the Atlanta Braves, with Mets great Tom Seaver. In it Seaver warns Mets fans not to judge Wheeler too quickly.
Seaver said the following (directed more toward Wheeler than to fans:
"It's not gonna happen in one game," Seaver said. "And you shouldn't think, 'Here I am for the next 20 years,' either. It might be a month, or two months, before you really understand who you are and if you can or cannot do this. This is a continual learning curve."
But just as Wheeler shouldn't expect greatness in game 1 of his major league career so should fans not expect it. One game does not make a career. With any luck Wheeler will be around for a while regardless of how he does tonight. So rather than set lofty expectations we should just sit back and enjoy.

Welcome to the Graduate Center webpage. The center is housed
within the Office of Graduate Education and was created as a
service to graduate students, including co-terminal students,
who would prefer to discuss an academic or personal issue on a
confidential basis. This sort of consultation is characteristic
of an ombuds office and is designed to confidentially,
impartially, and informally assist students in resolving issues
that may arise over an interpersonal dispute or other personal
situation affecting their educational progress. The center also
helps eligible students identify other campus offices and
professionals who may be better equipped to assist them.
Graduate Ombudsman
The graduate student ombudsman, working within the Graduate
Center, can help graduate students resolve issues that may
arise within the university setting. The ombudsman offers an
informal avenue for graduate students, where consultations are
kept confidential and students may remain anonymous, except in
cases of sexual harassment or assault, which must be reported
to the Division of Human Resources.
If you believe that you need to speak with the ombudsman
confidentially about a campus-related issue, contact Mr. Dennis
Gornic, 276-6567, or visit him in the Office of Graduate
Education, 1516 Peoples Ave. Mr. Gornic has sixteen years of
experience in the Rensselaer Office of Graduate Education
helping graduate students to reach their educational and
personal goals and holds an MS degree in Academic Advising from
Kansas State University and a BS in psychology from the
University of Pittsburgh. He is an affiliate member of the
International Ombudsman Association (IOA), where he received
extensive ombuds training.

Cape Town - ANC chief whip Stone Sizani on Thursday welcomed Parliament's decision to establish an ad hoc committee on the Nkandla issue.
"The decision to establish the committee was taken in line with the applicable rule enabling the Speaker to establish a committee of this nature during a parliamentary recess and following consultation with the chief whip of the majority party and other parties, Sizani said in a statement.
The multi-party committee's mandate would be to consider President Jacob Zuma's response to Public Protector Thuli Madonsela's report on Nkandla and make recommendations, where applicable, he said.
On Wednesday, Parliament announced an ad hoc committee would be formed to consider the submissions made by Zuma in response to Madonsela's report on upgrades to his private Nkandla homestead in KwaZulu-Natal.
The decision was made by National Assembly Speaker Max Sisulu after he received Zuma's response to Madonsela's report last week, it said.
In his statement on Thursday, Sizani said "contrary to the opportunistic, misguided and deliberately misleading electioneering rhetoric" from the Democratic Alliance, the committee had nothing to do with either the "impeachment" or the DA's request for the establishment of a "committee to impeach" Zuma.
"It is natural that Parliament, as the supreme representative of the people in terms of our constitutional democracy, would develop a special process to consider a matter of national importance as this one," he said.
Parliament said the committee would be made up of seven African National Congress MPs, two from the DA, one each from the Inkatha Freedom Party and Congress of the People, and one MP from the smaller parties.
It would determine its own procedure, frequency and time of its meetings.
"The committee is to report no than later April 30, 2014," Parliament said.
Last month, Madonsela released her final report on security upgrades totalling R246 million at Zuma's homestead.
She found that Zuma gave the nod to all the upgrades and that he and his family unduly benefited from them.
These included a swimming pool, cattle kraal, and amphitheatre.
Madonsela also found that Zuma breached the Executive Members' Ethics Act.
She described the amount spent as unconscionable, and recommended that Zuma pay back a percentage.

Republicans want supermajority for tax increases, but Dayton calls it millionaire protection
Republicans in the Minnesota Legislature want to put on the ballot a proposal for a constitutional amendment that would require a 60 percent majority of the Legislature to raise taxes in the state.
But Gov. Mark Dayton said it's a bad idea and called it a "millionaires tax protection amendment," MPR reports.
The governor feels that such a requirement would make it impossible for him to push his plan to raise taxes on the state's highest earners.
Dayton said at the fair Monday:
"To say that people in the future don't have the right to make their own decisions on a majority basis to me is just selfish and short sighted. And it's going to have the practical effect of keeping our taxes unfair and unequal and allowing the richest Minnesotans to avoid paying their fair share, and I'm dead opposed to that."
Rep. Steve Drazkowski of Mazeppa introduced a bill last week — and 28 other Republicans signed on as co-sponsors — that would allow voters to decide whether tax increases should require 60 percent in the Legislature, rather than the current simple majority.
MPR quoted Drazkowski:
"Minnesotans have resoundingly talked about bringing responsibility to the spending and stopping the taxing and spending we've been doing throughout our history. And we see about a 20 percent increase in the growth of government up until the current biennium as far back as we can see."

we all see the problems in California with their super majority to pass tax hikes I don't think we want that here its just another way to protect the rich.Tax the rich thev'e been getting a free ride for years.

Saints' Payton caddying for Palmer
Watch our Google+ Hangout with Ryan Palmer here
By Helen Ross, PGATOUR.COM
Mini-camps are over and training camp doesn't start until July 25. So New Orleans Saints coach Sean Payton decided to sneak in a quick vacation at The Greenbrier, an iconic resort located in the scenic West Virginia mountains.
Did we mention he planned to caddy for his good friend Ryan Palmer in The Greenbrier Classic, too? So what started as a little R&R quickly became much more -- and Payton wouldn't have it any other way.
"After two days I've quickly realized, this isn't a vacation," Payton said. "… I take the opportunity very seriously in that this is how he makes a living. It's interesting to be on the course and to watch these guys, the athletes, the consistency, the way they hit the ball, it's pretty amazing."
Payton has learned quickly that a caddy's job is more than the classic "show up, keep up and shut up." Particularly when dodging raindrops ike the two have done during the first three days this week.
"I certainly have a great appreciation for the job that these caddies have," Payton said. "All of a sudden it starts raining a little bit, you're one hand short, you've got umbrellas going, towels going everywhere."
Payton and Palmer, who is a three-time PGA TOUR champ, have been friends for quite awhile. Palmer comes to see the Saints play when he can, the two meet up at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans and they play as often as their schedules admit.
"It's going to be fun to get the advice from a hard-nosed football coach," Palmer said. ".. I'm looking forward to having a lot of fun and try to win this thing."
Payton sees parallels between a TOUR player and a quarterback in terms of visualizing a round or the progress of a game. He's been very struck by the discipline involved and the hard, even "tedious" work that has made Palmer such a successful pro.
"I think the challenge, and you take it for granted, but 18 holes, however many shots, however many days in a row, the ability to have 100 percent of your focus on that shot," Payton said. "I know when we jump in golf carts and drive around a course and shoot in the 90s, we might have great focus on eight shots total, but to do that and force yourself to have that same discipline I think is probably a big challenge for these guys."
One of Palmer's buddies, D.J. Nelson, who caddies for Chad Campbell, texted him and told the TOUR pro to make sure Payton knows where caddy dining is. Ditto for the Quality Inn where many of the caddies are staying.
"They've talked to him on the range, some players and some guys as well," Palmer said. "You need to have somebody like that amongst us that we look up to and watch and follow in a sport we love in the game of football. It's pretty cool to hear the mindset of one of the great coaches in the game, Super Bowl winning coach. It's a lot of fun to hear -- to have a coach like that is pretty cool."
So does Payton plan to return the favor? Will Palmer be on the field at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, donning a headset at one of the Saints' games?
"Well, that's if he's allowing me to club his round tomorrow," Payton said. "He can carry the headset cord."
Not likely.
"I'm trying to teach him the yardage right now," Palmer said.

Puppy foods aren't appropriate for adult dogs because they're designed to accommodate the nutritional requirements of growing youngsters. Although your mature pooch might perpetually seem like an adorable puppy, he needs to consume a healthy, well-rounded diet that's tailored to adults.
Adult Dogs Need Adult Food
Do not feed your adult dog puppy food. Commercial puppy foods are made to satisfy the nutritional demands of young dogs during the initial months of their lives. They contain the right blends of nutrients, minerals and vitamins that encourage proper development. Puppy foods don't lack components that are necessary in mature dogs, however. They actually offer excessive levels of protein and calories. Because of that, they aren't suitable for adults.
Possibility of Discomfort
Mature canines must eat based on their energy requirements and sizes. They require fewer essential nutrients and calories than puppies do. They need fewer calories because their metabolic rates are lower. Puppies often need to consume as much as two times the energy of adults. Since puppy formulas are created with the goal of ideal health in growing dogs, they can lead to potential discomfort and problems in adults. These problems include weight gain and stomach upset.
Changing to Adult Food
Puppies generally should consume nutritious puppy foods until they get to between 80 and 90 percent of their expected mature weights. This time frame varies depending on the breed. Giant and large dog breeds usually mature at slower paces than smaller breeds. However, most dogs get to the point of needing adult food when they're approximately 9 months old. If you have any questions regarding when to transition your pup to adult dog food, speak to your veterinarian.
Gradual Technique
Never be abrupt in switching your pet's diet. Sudden changes can often trigger digestive troubles such as loose and runny stools. When you first begin the switch from puppy fare to adult fare, feed your pooch 75 percent puppy food and 25 percent adult dog food. Continue doing this for several days. Switch to an even combination of 50 percent puppy food and 50 percent mature dog food. Continue with this feeding pattern for several days. Then feed your pet 25 percent puppy food and 75 percent adult food. Finally, transition to feeding your dog exclusively adult food.
Feeding Senior Adult Dogs
Owners must remember that adult dogs don't all have the same nutritional needs. Elderly dogs often benefit from diets that are made exclusively for seniors. Foods designed for elderly canines typically have goals such as chronic disease prevention and weight maintenance. Talk to your vet regarding when your adult dog should change to a senior diet plan. Depending on your dog's size, the appropriate time frame can be anywhere between 5 and 7 years old.

My favorite paragraph (emphasis added):
Should Your Gift Still Be Alive
? The cat world is divided over the etiquette of presenting humans with the thoughtful gift of a recently disemboweled animal. Some believe that humans prefer these gifts already dead, while others maintain that humans enjoy a slowly expiring cricket or rodent just as much as we do, given their jumpy and playful movements in picking the creatures up after they've been presented. After much consideration of the human psyche, we recommend the following: Cold blooded animals (large insects, frogs, lizards, garden snakes and the occasional earthworm) should be presented dead, while warm blooded animals (birds,rodents,
your neighbor's Pomeranian
) are better still living. When you see the expression on your human's face, you'll know it's worth it.

Christmas is just around the corner, which means most of us will have more than our fair share of alcohol-guzzling opportunities. But don't leave all your drinking to the office Christmas party. According to French health experts, binge drinking doubles your risk of having a heart attack.
The amount of alcohol drunk during the course of a week in both countries was more or less identical, they found. But the pattern of drinking couldn't be more different. In Belfast, for instance, a week's worth of alcohol tends to be drunk in one or two days over the weekend. In France, however, alcohol intake is more likely to be spread evenly throughout the week.
Having studied almost 10,000 people in both countries, all of whom were free from heart disease when the research started almost 20 years ago, the experts discovered those who drank all their alcohol in one or two days - the binge drinkers, in other words - had almost twice the risk of heart attack or death by heart disease than the little-but-often drinkers.
There could be another reason why more drinkers have heart disease in Northern Ireland than in France, claim the experts. And that could have something to do with the type of alcohol people drink (more wine is drunk in France, for instance, while in Belfast beer and spirits are more popular).
Will you be attempting to moderate your drinking this Christmas?

The naming of London Southend Airport has been labelled misleading by bosses at rival hub London City.
Last week the International Air Transport Association classified Southend – which lies more than 80 kilometres from the centre of the capital – as a London airport for the first time.
Britain's Civil Aviation Authority had previously referred to Southend as a London airport, but now it will be known as London Southend to all overseas visitors.
But Matthew Hall, London City's chief commercial officer, said the decision would irritate visitors.
"Giving the 'London' designation to an airport which is nearly an hour away by train is faintly ridiculous and extremely misleading," he told the travel industry magazine Travel Trade Gazette. "You have to feel for the visitor who expects to land in London and ends up in a field on the east coast.
He added that London Luton (which more than 50km from the capital), London Stansted (64km), and London Oxford (90km) were also "bizarre naming decisions".
"Why this particular affliction has been allowed to spread within the airport sector is baffling," said Mr Hall.
EasyJet launched services from the Essex airport to Barcelona, Amsterdam and Belfast in April. It has since added flights to Alicante, Faro, Ibiza, Malaga, Majorca and Jersey. Aer Arann flies from the airport to Waterford and Dublin.
During the 1960s, Southend was Britain's third busiest airport, behind Heathrow and Manchester. At its height it flew nearly 700,000 passengers each year to destinations including Paris, Ostende, Rotterdam and the Channel Islands, but competition from cross-Channel ferry services and the growth of Stansted and Luton airports saw it fall into rapid decline.
The seeds of its revival were sown in 2008, when it was bought by the Stobart Group, which has invested more than £100 million ($A148 million) in regeneration. Managing director Alastair Welch said having London in its name would help the airport continue to expand.
Other airports have been criticised in the past for lying so far from their apparent location. Munich West Airport, for example, is found nearly 70 miles west of the German city, Oslo-Torp airport is actually 120km from the Norwegian capital, while Barcelona Girona airport – favoured by Ryanair – is 105km from Barcelona.

Hi, I'm 1.72m tall and I weigh 58kg's. I had my BA 2 weeks ago, 350cc saline in right breast and 325cc in left, high profile. I was asymmetrical before surgery. My right breast is sitting about a centimetre lower than my left and is bigger. My PS has given me an ace strap to wear along with my supportive bra. I'm just curious if my result after 2 weeks is normal? My PS is amazing! I'm just OCD and would like some more opinions.
2 Weeks Post Op, Implants Slightly Uneven! Should I Worry? (photo)

Like the other docs, I agree it is early and hard to make any conclusions until the inflammatory healing process has settled. Try to wait 3 months and see how it goes
BA assymetry after 2 weeks
I can certainly see your concerns. However, you are early in the healing process and it is important that you follow directions of your plastic surgeon precisely. Let him/her know about your concerns. The implants begin to descend about 3 weeks and the right looks like it has descended through the fold. I would not be thinking about revisions until you allow enough time for the healing to occur and speak with your plastic surgeon. Communication is key during these times. You have trusted him/her enough to do your surgery just stick with it and keep your lines of communication open. Posts such as this one will only make you freak out. No one who comments on this post will know you like the PS you trusted to operate on you.
Breast asymmetry 2 weeks after breast augmentation?
No, No, and NO! Be patient. I can never promise that you will not need a revision, but it is way to early to even worry about it or consider one. It takes at least 4 months for the breasts to settle into place. They will drop at different rates so be patient. It's important to not overdo in the early post-operative period. It's always good to hear that you like and respect your plastic surgeon. I strongly recommend you check in with him/her for any additional concerns.
Best of luck,

Give it time
Hello. Two weeks is not enough time for the implants to settle. Your implants will not settle for about another three months and I would not be too worried about your outcome until then.

2 Weeks Post Op, Implants Slightly Uneven! Should I Worry?
Appears to be infra mammary fold asymmetry. But in person examinations are the ONLY way to determine if this will self correct or need surgery revision.
Breast Asymmetry after Breast Augmentation?
Thank you for the question and pictures. Based on your pictures, I can understand your concern. The degree of breast asymmetry is concerning; whether the breast asymmetry will improve with time is difficult to predict. Although online consultants may have good intentions and wish to give you assurance, meaningful "reassurance" will only come with time.
Continue to follow-up with your plastic surgeon; hopefully you will be pleased with the long-term outcome of the procedure. In the event that significant breast implant position asymmetry continues, revisionary surgery ( for example capsulorraphy) may be helpful.
Best wishes.

Breast asymmetry
It is always good to see preo-op photos. They looked good immediately post-op but now the right almost looks like it is bottoming out. Best to discuss with your surgeon.
Breast asymmetry 2 weeks post op
At two weeks post op your asymmetry is very likely due to edema and variations in healing between your right and left breast. It will take three to four months before you can easily asses the final outcome.
It is impossible to render a more specific opinion regarding the differences without knowing the specifics of your surgical procedure and examining you. Your surgeon is in the best position to tell you how to respond to the present appearance, however I suspect the best answer is to give it more time.
Should I Worry?
Thanks for your question and for the posted photos. With your noting asymmetry before your surgery it would be helpful to see pre-op photos.
Base just on these two photos, the symmetry looked better right after surgery, and it may be that the right side is "bottoming out" now. I would discuss this with your surgeon soon. Some feel that by supporting the breast fold early on, the capsule that will form may by in a better position by doing this, and may avert the consideration of a second operation to re-enforce the breast fold.
All the best.

California Genealogy and History Archives
San Bernardino County and Riverside County
HUGH L. DICKSON — While Hugh L. Dickson, attorney of San Bernardino, has not practiced continuously in the city, he has been here a number of years and has built up a satisfying practice, at first alone but in later years with a partner. The firm name is Allison & Dickson, doing a general law practice, but in the main largely civil, and they handle many personal injury cases, in which specialization they have been more than ordinarily successful.
Mr. Dickson has been quite a vital factor in political circles, holding office in the line of his profession and administering the duties of such offices in an earnest, able and industrious manner. That he is one of the city's loyal citizens is evidenced by his returning to it when larger opportunities and greater emoluments had been given to him in the East, successes which would have been a stepping stone to still higher positions. San Bernardino has no warmer booster than Mr. Dickson.
He was born in Water Valley, Mississippi, August 12, 1871, the son of William R. Dickson, a loyal son of the South, who wore the gray and yet served the wearers of the blue as a surgeon, an action which, while it seems strange, is in itself a tribute of the highest order to Dr. Dickson. It was the time when the war feeling ran highest, and yet, when Dr. Dickson was captured by the northern men he was placed in a position in which he could have done great harm to the Union forces. He was surgeon in the Confederate Army, of great reputation, and at once the general in command asked him to assist in caring for the wounded Federal soldiers. He at once went to work, performing surgical operations and in many ways caring for the wounded, intent only on his work of mercy. Many surgeons, both of the Northern and Southern hosts, would have been sorely tempted, many would have succumbed to the temptation to neglect the wounded men. But he worked among them just as though they were Confederate soldiers. When Dr. Dickson was offered pay for his inestimable services he refused it, but he asked that he be given some chloroform to take back to his command so that the, of necessity crude surgery, could be done without the terrible suffering attendant without it. He was given ten pounds of the precious drug and sent back to his command. He died in 1888, after practicing most of his life in Arkansas and Mississippi. The mother of Hugh L. Dickson was Ella P. McConnico, a native of Mississippi, who died at the age of twenty-nine.
Mr. Dickson was educated in the public schools of his native state and then for two years was a student in the literary course of the University of Mississippi. In 1890 he took the senior course in the law school, then entered a law office and in 1896 he was admitted to the bar. He practiced first in Mississippi, remaining there two years, then locating in Kingman, Arizona, where he practiced for seven years. At the end of that period he moved to San Bernardino and practiced until 1909. At that time he went to Peoria, Illinois, as general counsel for the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen. He remained in that position until 1913, when he returned to San Bernardino and has since been in continuous practice in this city.
He married in 1904 Ola M. McConnico. They have three children, Margaret, Dorothy and Floreine.
Mr. Dickson is a member of San Bernardino Lodge No. 836, B. P. O. E., and was its exalted ruler in 1908. He is also a member of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen. In his first residence in San Bernardino he was district attorney, 1907-8, and he held the same position in Kingman, Arizona, for two terms, 1900-4. He was a candidate for Congress in 1920, but he was defeated in the general republican landslide. The family is affiliated with the Presbyterian Church.

While everyone wants IT to be more efficient these days, the fact remains that a lot of IT resources are being spent on supporting applications that are long past their prime.
A survey of 150 IT managers at organizations with over $500 million in revenue, and conducted by Harris Interactive on behalf of the Quest Software business unit of Dell, finds that application bloat is rampant across the enterprise. This results in not only wasted spending, but actually less agile businesses. The challenge, of course, is getting the business to rationalize many of these applications in the name of the greater good.
