SEMI-NEWS: A Satire of Recent News, February 9, 2014 Edition
"While the Administration's opponents will try to make this look like bad news, the fact is that work is a disutility," said Press Secretary Jay Carney. "Everyone knows that leisure is man's preferred state. By enabling more people to obtain health insurance at government expense, the Affordable Care Act is liberating millions from the drudgery of full time employment."
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif) maintains that "enabling more people to escape the burdens of toil was one of the key objectives of the Act. Ideally, we would've liked to extend this same benefit to every American. Unfortunately, some will still be required to work longer hours in order to provide the funds needed to subsidize the benefits we were able to give to those willing to abandon full time jobs."
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid hailed "the end of job-lock. By leveraging the efforts of those willing to work longer hours we have been able to subsidize the health insurance of those who have better uses for their time. Combined with the expansion of the disability rolls and the extension of unemployment benefits, the Affordable Care Act is helping to create a new class of free agents in our society. It is a dream come true for a growing segment of our population."
Ironically, the CBO report also projected that in 10 years the number of Americans without health insurance is expected to exceed 30 million—virtually the same number that was cited as a rationale for imposing the Obamacare mandate. "There will always be people who refuse to cooperate with the program," Carney acknowledged. "Hopefully, the IRS will be able to track them down and fine them for noncompliance."
In related news, Carney maintained that the $4,000 per year decline in median household income since the start of the Obama Administration is "evidence of an America turning away from materialistic concerns. Households are taking home less money because the Administration's policies have helped persuade people that grubbing for dollars is not an appealing way to live one's life."
Infrastructure, Not Freedom, Is Key to Economic Growth, Says Biden
Vice-President and potential contender for the 2016 Democratic nomination for President, Joe Biden rejected contentions that individual freedom is crucial to economic growth.
"I know a lot of people keep insisting that it is America's free market and individual rights that account for this country's phenomenal economic growth, but is that really the case?" Biden asked. "Look at the rapid economic growth achieved by the Soviet Union during the 1930s and 40s. By mobilizing armies of human labor to build canals and mine metals they were able to transform perishable human resources into the durable infrastructure that vaulted the country from a backward agrarian-based economy to a world super power."
The Vice-President wondered whether "their divergence from that strategy might be a factor in Russia's recent decline from its pinnacle of rivalry with the United States. Perhaps their attempts to emulate our freer markets are misguided."
Biden suggested that "maybe it's time we rethink our mindless devotion to individualism in this country. The choices that many individuals make when decisions are left up to them are often frivolous and anti-social. Consumers don't want to go 'green' because it's more costly. They don't want to use public transit because it's less convenient. How long should we allow such selfish concerns to warp our economy?"
Jailed Legislator Defends Himself
Though currently serving a six-month sentence for assaulting a woman who declined to have sex with him, Representative Carlos Henriquez (D-Suffolk) refuses to resign from the Massachusetts House.
"First of all, my incarceration is illegal," Henriquez argued. "Members of the legislature are supposed to have immunity. Secondly, the Ethics Committee's recommendation that I be removed from office contradicts the vote of the people of my district who are entitled to have the person of their choice represent them. Nowhere in the State Constitution does it say that a person in prison cannot serve in the legislature."
The Representative has suggested that "a six-month leave of absence would best serve the interests of everyone involved. The will of the voters would be respected. The expense of a special election would be avoided. And I could rejoin the legislature refreshed and with a new perspective on the issue of state corrections policy."
Henriquez, who has been a prominent advocate against gun violence, says there is no inconsistency in his behavior. "If that woman had a gun I'd probably be dead," he pointed out. "So, I'd say that Massachusetts' tight control over gun ownership has clearly saved at least one life."
Congresswoman Proposes Expedited Legislative Procedure
Citing the "unwarranted thwarting of the will of the people by the Republicans in the House," Representative Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) unveiled what she called "an expedited legislative procedure." Under this procedure, a so-called "full employment caucus" comprised of Democratic lawmakers will draft Executive Orders and pass them on to President Obama for his signature.
"We cannot sit by idly while the GOP uses out-dated clauses of the Constitution to block the initiatives of the Administration," Jackson said. "By gathering the true representatives of voters into our caucus we can ensure that the President's will prevails over obstructionism."
Jackson went on to point out that "as long as everyone is willing to comply with the President's Executive Orders they have the same impact as an Act of Congress. We'll be able to bypass Congressional gridlock and get things moving."
Included among the items under consideration for this expedited procedure are an increase in the minimum wage, extending unemployment benefits, loosening the restrictions on food stamps, and amnesty for immigrants in this country illegally. "Removing these impediments to prosperity is essential if the President's vision for America is to be realized," Jackson asserted.
Senator Cries "Foul" over Campaign Ads
Senator Kay Hagan (D-NC) expressed outrage over a series of campaign ads informing voters of her support for the Affordable Care Act. While not disputing the accuracy of the content, Hagan contended that "the more important question is who is behind these ads."
"Whether I voted for the Affordable Care Act years ago is a moot issue at this point in time," the Senator claimed. "The past cannot be undone. What matters is the future. The money being put into rehashing the past by the Americans for Prosperity campaign against me is obscuring this crucial fact."
"Instead of allowing themselves to be confused by 'Monday morning quarterbacking' of the sort that these ads are undertaking, voters need to focus on what I am promising to do for them if I am reelected," Hagan urged. "They need to ask themselves if they want to follow the siren song of lower taxes that Americans for Prosperity is trying play for them or do they want to reconfirm the trust they placed in me six years ago."
IRS Employees to Get Bonuses
The IRS will pay out over $40 million in employee performance bonuses for the year 2013. Commissioner John Koskinen explained that "the bonuses are necessary if we want to attract the kind of people we need at the agency."
Senator Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) called the bonuses "outrageous. Given the fact that the IRS was shown to be targeting conservatives for discriminatory treatment these bonuses send the wrong message."
The National Treasury Employees Union took issue with Hatch's view saying that "none of these employees should be punished for faithfully following orders. Senator Hatch's grievance is with the President and his direct appointees, not the rank-and-file who merely carried out directives received from above."
Commissioner Koskinen agreed saying that "rather than try to take his 'pound of flesh' from these loyal low-level bureaucrats, the Senator, if he has objections that he thinks warrant penalties, should aim them at his real target. If he thinks he has a case he should draft articles of impeachment against the President. The misuse of authority he alleges would appear to be an 'impeachable offense' as I understand the term."
President Says O'Reilly Interview "Crossed the Line"
Bristling from what he characterized as "disrespectful and abusive treatment" he received during an interview, President Obama vowed never to appear on Fox News again.
"After I agreed to sacrifice some of my precious time in order to grant Mr. O'Reilly an interview prior to the Super Bowl I was greeted with insistent and intrusive questioning on topics I didn't want to talk about," Obama complained. "Worse, my veracity was impugned. Rather than just accept my word, Mr. Reilly seemed determined to demand some sort of independent verification, some sort of external evidence. I am not accustomed to being treated this way."
The President said he will be conferring with advisers "to ascertain whether there are steps we can take to prevent a recurrence of this kind of disrespect. I'm certain that Mr. Reilly has done things that he'd rather keep private. If he were more clearly apprised of the risks he faces I am confident he will not repeat his errors."

John Whittingdale visited the Bradwell site to see progress in decommissioning the old power station. John was accompanied by Vicky Ford MEP and met Scott Raish, Site Director. (pictured).
The site is following an accelerated decommissioning programme and is now in the Care and Maintenance phase. John went on the roof of one of the old reactors now being clad in aluminium and also saw the Fuel Element Debris treatment plant and the Intermediate Level waste store. John said "remarkable progress has been made since I last visited Bradwell in March with both reactors now almost fully clad. Bradwell is the first commercial reactor to be decommissioned in the UK and the techniques being developed here will be used across the industry. I congratulate all involved on the fantastic job that they are doing"
Following their visit, John and Vicky went with EDF to see the possible site of the new Bradwell B nuclear power station which may be built next to the old power station by the China General Nuclear Corporation.

It was built in 1488 by an Italian architect Antonio Gislardi (also known as Anton Fryazin).
Initially, the tower was called the Sviblova Tower after the Sviblov boyar family, who had lived in a house adjacent to the tower from the Kremlin's side.
The tower was renamed to Vodovzvodnaya in 1633 after the installation of a water-supplying machine inside the tower («vodovzvodnaya» may be translated as «water-lifting»). I
n 1805, the Vodovzvodnaya Tower was dismantled due to its dilapidation and built once again.
In 1812, the retreating French army blew it up.
The tower was restored in 1817—1819 by architect Osip Bove. Its height is 61.85 m.

Telstra has revealed a more conservative set of numbers for the speed of NBN fixed wireless services during the evening peak, six months after becoming the first telco to publish fixed wireless data.
The new set of numbers offer a less optimistic view of performance expectations for fixed wireless services during the busy evening hours.
Back in March, Telstra said that "around 50 percent of customers achieve [typical minimum] speeds greater than 5Mbps (download)" on NBN12 fixed wireless plans in the 7pm to 11pm evening peak.
That guidance still stands, but has been augmented by a new fact sheet that shows the typical minimum speed for all NBN12 users is in the "2-5Mbps download" range in the evening.
Likewise, Telstra had previously said - and maintains - that "around 50 percent of customers achieve [typical minimum] speeds greater than 10Mbps (download)" on NBN25 fixed wireless plans in the same period.
The new fact sheet, however, states that the typical minimum speed for all NBN25 fixed wireless users is "2-10Mbps (download)".
Given Telstra broke new ground by even publishing fixed wireless statistics - it is under no obligation to, based on Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) rules - it appears the way it reports them is still a work-in-progress.
It is understood that Telstra decided internally to report fixed wireless speeds in the same manner as it did for fixed line services, rather than continue with different metrics.
It is also understood that between the old percentage and new speed range, there is no change to the underlying data; that is, performance expectations remain the same, but have just been restated.
NBN Co is in the midst of an upgrade program of work to remediate its worst-performing fixed wireless sites.
The upgrade program is partly to blame for a recent blowout on NBN Co's expenses; the company will spend $800m more than expected on the fixed wireless network, and will need to cover that by raising additional debt.
The company has blamed take-up and usage rates for higher-than-expected congestion on the fixed wireless network.

Who are the best strikers on FIFA 21?
EA Sports revealed the overall ratings of the top 10 best strikers in FIFA 21. We have combined the stats to understand and rank the best strikers in FIFA 21.
If you're looking to score more goals in FIFA 21 and wanted to create an unstoppable team, you probably need to know about the best strikers in FIFA 21. Understanding the footballer stats and skills will help you plan out the best squad for the game.
We're going to reveal the stats which will help you to place the best player in the striker position. Check out this ultimate guide to figure out the best strikers or attackers in FIFA 21.
Here are the top 10 best strikers in FIFA 21 according to the ratings released by EA Sports.
1 Lionel Messi
Barcelona's talisman Lionel Messi is one of the best players on the planet. The Argentine international is the top-rated player and the best striker in FIFA 21. He again dethrones his arch-rival Cristiano Ronaldo to secure the top spot in FIFA 21.
Messi clinical finishing in front of goal with a 92 Shooting stat and overall rating of 93 is enough for any defenders to mark him. He has a rating of 95 in Dribbling which is completely insane compared to other players. His four-star skill moves including his pacy speed, allowing him to pass any defenders with ease and score goals with aptitude and art.
2 Cristiano Ronaldo
Cristiano Ronaldo does not need any introduction in world football. The Portuguese star is 35 now but he still has the same hunger to score goals. He still a monster on the field who can change the course of the game with a blink of an eye.
Cristiano Ronaldo has phenomenal since moving to Piemonte Calcio. He still the top scorer for his team every season. Though he could not help the team to win UCL his performance can't be ignored. Cristiano Ronaldo has an overall rating of 92, just one point less than his rival Lionel Messi. He's still the best striker in the game.
3 Robert Lewandowski
What a season Robert Lewandowski had. The Polish international has been the best player for Bayern Munich since he came from Borussia Dortmund in 2014. In 2019-20 Lewandowski outperformed every player in league and tournaments across Europe. Lewandowski became the top scorer in all competition and win the European treble (national league, the national cup, and UCL). Lewandowski has been awarded the UEFA best player and the best striker for his exceptional performance in Europe.
EA has given Lewandowski an overall rating of 91 for his memorable performance throughout the year.
4 Neymar Jr
Neymar Jr is another player that is well suited for the striker position. Neymar has slipped to fourth place from third in the official rankings since FIFA 20, but that doesn't mean he can be ignored he still can be very dangerous when played in the left-wing.
The Brazilian attacker has an overall rating of 91 with 96 Agility and 94 Dribbling. He has got the five-star skill which will be very hard for any defender to approach in a 1 on 1 position. Neymar has 80+ ratings in Passing and Shooting and 91 Pace which makes him the most lethal player in the game.
5 Kylian Mbappe
Mbappe's performance speaks for himself. Many legend players regarded him as the future of football. The French international had shown some breathtaking performance in 2018 and won the FIFA World Cup. He already won 4 Ligue 1 titles one with Monaco and three with Paris Saint-Germain.
The Champions League is the only trophy that he is still hunting for though he helped the PSG to reach the Champions League final last season. Kylian Mbappe is the FIFA 21's global star and has an overall rating of 90.
6 Mohamed Salah
Salah means goals. since his arrival at the Liverpool club, he broken multiple records. He became the highest goal scorer in Premier League in a Particular season. Mohamed Salah has an overall speed rating of 93. The right-winger had a physical rating of 75 which help him to push the defenders out and make his way to a goal-scoring position.
Salah has got 94 Acceleration and 91 Finishing. Salah is one of the players which can dribble past any defenders due to his sheer speed and dribbling. He has 81 Passing stats which is quite good to set up any player for the goal. In my view, Salah would be the best Right winger of FIFA 21 just after Messi.
7 Sadio Mane
Liverpool's Mane has deserved to be in the 7th spot. Mane has some unbelievable stats in FIFA 21 including 94 Pace and 90 Dribbling. He could be the crime partner of Mohamed Salah in Left Wing. Mane has some advantage over Salah as he got better shot power with 84 ratings and better heading accuracy than Salah with 84 stats.
Mane is perfect for left-wing, his shot power and pace make it easy for counter-attacking football. It would be recommended to use Mane if you are going for a 4-3-3 formation in FIFA 21.
8 Sergio Agüero
Sergio Aguero is one of the best players whose consistency is phenomenal. He has been the best player for Manchester City for almost a decade now. Agüero remains one of the deadliest strikers in FIFA 21.
The Argentine international got the overall rating of 89 and will be one of the best strikers to bet on FIFA 21.
9 Karim Benzema
The French international is the most underrated footballer in the Cristiano Ronaldo era. His performance over the year is quite good. Since the departure of Ronaldo from Real Madrid, he is the one player who always stepped in when the team needed the most.
Benzema showed what he is capable of in the 2019-20 season. He scored the most goals for Los Blancos in La Liga and helped them to win another league title. Benzema had an overall rating of 89 in FIFA 21.
10 Harry Kane
Harry Kane is one of the renowned names in the Premier League. Though his last season is disrupted due to multiple injuries he is still regarded as the best player for England national team and the best striker in Premier League.
In FIFA 21, Kane had an overall rating of 88. Kane's goal scoring is still unmatchable and he is still the best player for his team. He just needs a game to prove his worth. If you need any player with pace, physicality, and goalscoring ability go with Harry Kane.

Erling Haland needs no introduction in world football. He has shown everyone in the last season what he is capable of.

Adama Traore can be perfectly said as a beast with a speed. He has an excellent physique and breathtaking speed. The winger is known for his power and his blazing runs. His quick speed makes him the hottest topic on the Premier League.
The player tasted success with Wolves in the Premier League and he is one of the players who can beat anyone in 1 on 1 situation.
2. Achraf Hakimi – 36.48 kmph
Achraf Hakimi is the kind of player who can be quite effective at surprising anyone with his speed. Hakimi is a complete full-back who had been very effective against the quick players. He also plays as a right midfielder for his current team Inter Milan.
Hakimi is known for his top-notch speed and quick movements. He has become a great addition for Inter Milan and a favorite for his coach Antonio Conte. Conte used his speed for counter-attacking football.
Hakimi consistently clocked 36.5 kmph, which would be the fastest speed you can see on any player on the field.
1. Alphonso Davies – 36.51 kmph
Alphonso Davies has been the wonder-kid of 2020. Davies is merely 19 years old and already won the 2 Bundesliga titles and the Champions League. He has been excellent for his team Bayern Munich who has won the Treble last season. Alphonso Davies tops in the fastest football player in the world list.
Alphonso's speed is thrilling to watch. His blazing runs on the wing side can cause serious problems for my team. Davies is excellent with his defensive skills as well. his pacy runs are very effective for counter-attack as well. His defensive skills, speed, and dribbling talent make him a complete player on the field.
He already made his name in the footballing world at every young age and he still has a lot to offer.
Mourinho expects Son to sign a new Spurs deal despite already being agreed till 2023
Jose Mourinho is confident that Tottenham will place a new contract with Son Heung Min.
Jose Mourinho is assured that Tottenham can present a new contract to Son Heung-min despite the South Korean international already having a contract till 2023.
Last time Son renewed his terms in the summer of 2018 when he extended his contact for 5 more years.
Since renewing his contract he has shown excellent growth as a footballer and became the main man for Tottenham Hotspur.
Paperwork has prepared and it just needs Son's signature in order to extend his stay at Tottenham.
Mourinho believes a resolute update will be given in the near future. He is looking forward to keeping the South Korean in his team as long as possible.
Mourinho told reporters when questioned about the new contract being agreed: "I would love that.
"Son has three years of contract so it's not like we're in an extreme situation of everybody being worried.
"It's more that Son loves it here, I believe that he would like to commit his future to the club for a long time.
"Everybody at the club is totally in love with this player and this boy and is trying also to make him feel part of the furniture.
"It's normal the club tries to go from three years to four or five or six, I don't know.
"He deserves one, and the club knows that sooner or later without any pressure they will arrive into a decision."
After his move from Bayer Leverkusen in 2015 Son started the season slowly at Spurs. Since then he has shown consistency year after year and enjoying his time in Premier League.
He has scored staggering 77 goals in the last four seasons that he played in Premier League. He already has nine goals out of eight appearances in the 2020-21 season.
Mourinho said "Season after season after season, Sonny is showing how good he is."
"Of course, the better the team is, the easier it is for the players to emerge. But, Sonny, everybody knows what he does."

Dealing with Negative Emotions: Proof that Anger, Sadness, Jealousy & Fear aren't Bad..
Do you have a hard time dealing with negative emotions?
Do people ever tell you that you're too emotional?
Do you feel like you need to hide your anger, sadness, jealousy, fear, etc?
Well, today's video explains why those emotions are actually GOOD and why you should not be ashamed of them.
Side note: I am a pretty emotional person. I feel things really strongly and when I was younger, before I got good at dealing with negative emotions, there would always be chaos.
Thankfully, I grew up a little and realized that my negative emotions, weren't "Bad". They weren't something to hide, having them didn't mean that something was wrong with me. They were basically just sensors in my brain, telling me when something was wrong, much like when your car makes a funny noise.
I'll explain the whole "car analogy" in the video…
Now before you go, let me know if this helped…
Are you dealing with negative emotions right now?? What do you think they mean?
Let's chat about it in the comments. <3 Danielle

How do transplanted Chinese in Manhattan feel about Sex & The City? What with the media's acknowledged reluctance to cover anything related Sex & The City, it's little wonder they hadn't gotten around to approaching it from this fascinating angle. Until now! Bilingual Wall Street Journal contributor Li Yuan, whose column "Beautiful Country" chronicles her life as a Chinese expat in New York for audiences in the US and Asia, attacks this subject in today's column, which she reported the way Carrie would: by asking her friends! "The show didn't mention how the characters became successful and rich," points out a 24-year-old banker. "I'm sure they worked very hard when they were my age." A 28-year-old trader has a more jaundiced view. "I find some of its content pretty disgusting," he said. "To me, New York turned out to be more like the city in Friends.
The characters in Friends are poorer, but their lifestyle is healthier and closer to that of me and my friends." As for herself, Li Yuan ends her column on an "empowering" note that is Carrie-esque in its hollowness:
The city hasn't let me down. In my five years living here, I've worked very hard, made mistakes and had a few sleepless nights. But I've also met many fascinating people, made a few great friends, have a job I like a lot and feel great about myself.
I can't afford Manolo Blahniks but I do have many pairs of shoes — too many for anybody visiting my small Brooklyn apartment. I don't feel the pressures to settle down, get married and have kids that a woman in her mid-30s would face in China. Nobody has told me — yet — that I'm weird. Above all, I don't feel guilty about enjoying my life. I'm proud of my choices, just like the characters in the show are.
Which is, you know, just great, Li Yuan, but I couldn't help but WONDER if maybe, speaking Chinese and all, you might have been able track down one of those rare transplants who does feel a little bit let-down, like one of the guys working 14 hour days and living in 6 bedroom apartment that used to be a 2 bedroom apartment after enduring months-long trips in container ships like all the characters in that story about Chinatown in Sunday's Times:
The journey that brought Mr. Zheng to Forsyth Street from Fujian Province in southern China began in 1991 on a fishing boat. The boat broke down in what he called "the sea of nowhere," and the passengers were near death from starvation when they were rescued by another boat. Eventually they made their way to Guatemala. On his arrival in New York the following spring, Mr. Zheng moved into a one-bedroom apartment on East Broadway that was already occupied by 10 other men.
Seventeen years later, Zheng's doing okay for himself, but poverty among Chinese immigrants in the neighborhood has actually gotten worse.
Lin Ah-jiao, a pixielike 43-year-old from Fujian, sells tickets for a company called New Today's Bus. She works 13 out of every 14 days, often from 10 in the morning until 11 at night. "Chinese people work very hard," she said proudly. "Every day, working."
Her family's bedroom is dominated by a bunk bed that her husband built from scraps of wood. She and her husband share the bottom bunk; their daughter, 21, sleeps on top. Because there are no closets, the space beneath the bottom bunk is packed tight with bunches of clothes, and bulky plastic shopping bags hang from nails on the wall.
In the kitchen, a tight passageway with grease-spattered walls, a gold-and-red paper decoration bears the saying, "A good family brings in money." Scrawled in pencil on the same wall are hundreds of tiny Chinese characters.
"My uncle likes to write poetry when he gets drunk," Ms. Lin explained one day through an interpreter. Most of the poems, she said, were about drunkenness, though at least one of them was not. She read a few lines: "In the morning I go to the restaurant to work. I come back to my bed in the evening. My sweet dream has come true: I have turned into a ghost."
Yeah, that guy doesn't mess with Cosmos.

Artist Spotlight: Music Educator, Composer & Community Organizer Melvin Corpin
It's time to spotlight one of the most beloved composers from the Philippines. At FASO@10 on Saturday, Nov. 3 at 7:30 p.m., we'll be performing a work by the late Melvin Corpin, who inspired a generation of Samarnon and Leyteño musicians! Read on to learn more about this "wonderful one in a million musician" who dedicated his life to his family, his faith and his community!
1. Melvin wrote and arranged over 2,000 pieces! A majority of his works are liturgical hymns that continue to grace churches in the Archdiocese of Palo in the Eastern Visayas. In collaboration with National Artist of the Philippines Bienvenido Lumbera, Melvin arranged music for touring Philippine stage plays. His arrangement of "Di Ako Titigil" from the film "Burgos" won Best Original Song at the 2014 Golden Screen Awards. We'll be performing his masterpiece "Ha Imo La," which he composed as musical and artistic director of the Warayon Initiative Network's fundraising concert of the same name, at FASO@10. Here's a taste!
2. Melvin learned how to play piano by ear from the age of 4, and learned to compose and arrange music from the age of 10. He later graduated cum laude with a bachelor's in music education from Leyte Normal University (LNU) in Tacloban City. During his time at LNU, he received the YMCA Outstanding Student Award, the Musician of the Year Award and the President's Recognition Award! Following his graduation, he directed many Eastern Visayas choirs. Under his leadership, the St. Therese Singing Angels and St. Therese Educational Foundation of Tacloban Inc. (STEFTI) Children's Choir won several awards at the National Music Competition for Young Artists.
3. He was a beloved teacher known to many in the Eastern Visayas and beyond! Back home, many fondly remember Melvin as their first voice teacher or musical mentor. As musical director of the Family of God's Little Children of Tacloban City, Melvin traveled to Australia, Indonesia, Jerusalem, Malaysia and Singapore to teach workshops, and organize and perform concerts.!
4. Melvin never stopped thinking about home after moving to the United States with his family in 2008. He was an important founding member of the Southern California-based Warayon Initiative Network (WIN) and was WIN's VP for Ensemble, Training and Development. He contributed his talents to many Typhoon Haiyan fundraiser efforts. At Pope Francis' mass for the survivors of Typhoon Haiyan in 2015, Melvin led the 250-member Grand Choir of the Archdiocese of Palo. Most pieces played at the mass were Melvin's own compositions!
5. Music is a family affair in the Corpin family! All of four of Melvin's sons play instruments! His son Meldian plays violin and arranges for strings. Carlvian, Meldian's twin, plays cello, violin and piano. Mel plays clarinet, guitar and piano. Carl plays bass flute, guitar, and piano. And last, but not least, Melvin's wife Carla is both a practicing nurse and a soprano!

Hungary, Bulgaria challenge Rehn on pensions
December 6, 2010
This story about pensions in Hungary and Bulgaria was published by EurActiv on 6th December 2010.
Struggling with budgetary pressure at home, Hungary and Bulgaria have nationalised their pre-funded pension schemes and excluded the cost of reform from public debt figures, opening a row with the European Commission. The EurActiv network reports.
In November, Hungary and Bulgaria came up with very similar policies that embarrassed those attempting to provide an EU-wide solution to budget accounting of the cost of pension reform.
The move raised eyebrows in the Commission (see Positions) as both countries decided to nationalise their pre-funded pension schemes, thus reducing both public deficit and debt calculated by the Maastricht criteria.
In fact, Budapest and Sofia succeeded where Bratislava had previously failed. The former Slovak government of Robert Fico started to lure citizens back into the pay-as-you-go (PAYG) system if they gave up their personal private savings. Yet, after two increased offers, the majority of Slovak workers refused to hand the government their piggy banks.
In Bulgaria, which has the most pressing demographic situation in the EU with a majority of the electorate now pensioners, the government came up with policies that forced the pension insurance industry to call for a nationalisation as they could not meet their due payments under the conditions set by the government.
In addition, judging from press reports, the Bulgarian public never realised the scope of the decision of the country's parliament, taken on 19 November with the votes of the ruling Citizens for European Development of Bulgaria (GERB) party and the nationalist Ataka party. Most of the debate focused on the retirement age, while privatisation of the second-tier pension funds went unnoticed.
The Hungarian government, which enjoys a super-majority in parliament, gave citizens a choice. All have to decide which part of their pension they want to forego: those who want to keep their pre-funded accounts would not be eligible for partial PAYG in future, even though they have contributed to the current pensioner generation's payments; and those who want to keep their entitlement to a first-tier pension must 'volunteer' to give their savings to the government in exchange for maintaining their stake in the PAYG scheme.

KFC House Salad
Of course there is always the salad option. You can get the house salad from KFC and feel confident that it is vegan. You just have to make sure you order it without dressing, or with the Golden Italian Light Dressing. It is the only vegan option for dressing at KFC.
Sure, KFC is way down at the bottom of my list of places I want to eat. But if you find yourself there and can't help it, at least you know there are a few vegan options for you.

Ericsson escorted a convoy to the Canal Zone in May 1942, and another to Ireland and Scotland in June. Through the remainder of the summer, she escorted convoys along the east coast and in the Caribbean and took part in exercises, and also patrolled out of San Juan, P.R. On 24 October, she sortied from Norfolk for the invasion of North Africa, and took part in the landings on the coast of French Morocco 8 November.
For the next week she offered direct fire support to the troops ashore, assisting in knocking out four enemy batteries on a ridge commanding the landing area the first day; she also screened transports lying off the beach. Ericsson returned to Norfolk 26 November.
After a brief overhaul at Charleston, Ericsson returned to patrol and escort duty in the Caribbean and to Recife and Trinidad. In May 1943, she made the first of five convoy escort voyages to Casablanca from east coast ports, between which she joined in training, and patrolled the western Atlantic.
On 11 February 1944 she arrived at Gibraltar for duty in the Mediterranean, and through the next 6 months, operated primarily to support the troops fighting the bitter campaign for Italy. She escorted convoys and carried passengers between north African and Italian ports, bombarded points near the fiercely contested Anzio area and in the Gulf of Gaeta, patrolled off anchorages and harbors, and joined in exercises preparing for the invasion of southern France.

With just a few days left before the new year, I thought it was about time I did a wrap up post on the year that was 2014. I apologise for being a little slow with new posts over the past week or two, I've been taking a bit of a break and enjoying time with both little (and big) people. This year we decided to stay in Brisbane and have Christmas with just the four of us, and while we certainly missed our extended family, we had a great casual day at home.
As some of you may know, it's been a rough few years for us and Christmas hasn't always been my favourite time of the year. While there is still a little way to go, this year I was in one of the best places I've been for a very long time – something worth celebrating on it's own.
It's a little hard to know where to start, thankfully the lovely Bron from Maxabella Loves has come up with 10 questions to help reflect on the year that has past – well almost!
1. What word do you think best summed up 2014?
This time last year I decided my word for 2014 would be 'simple'. Overall I think I have embraced it pretty well. I have really tried not to overcomplicate things and when I've found myself starting to fall back into old habits, I've been able to identify it quickly and pull back.
2. What did you do for the first time this year?
I finally allowed myself to drop some of the guilt which has been suffocating my heart for the better part of four years and start to recognise and celebrate our successes. I also made the decision to leave the security of my permanent position (albeit I had been on maternity leave for almost three years!) and begin taking steps allowing me to now work from home to chase my dreams.
3. What is one thing that happened that will have lasting consequences?
While there hasn't been a single significant event, my self confidence and belief in myself has grown this year. There certainly are still many times when I struggle and doubt myself, but overall I feel more positive about my life and what I'm doing with it.
4. Was there anything you wish you'd done differently? Why? How?
We made the decision to undergo IVF in the second half of this year. Both cycles were unsuccessful and whilst I certainly don't regret trying, looking back the timing wasn't quite right and I really struggled both during and after the cycles and my health took a few steps back as a result.
5. Do you have a favourite moment from the year? What made it special?
The afternoon Problogger finished, my husband and boys drove down to the coast to stay with me for the night. We spend the afternoon at the beach, watching my boys playing with my husband as the sun began to set. In those moments I finally realised the three amazing people are my family and how incredibly luck I am to have all of them in my lives.
6. What lessons has 2014 taught you about yourself? About others?
I'm stronger than I thought and my happiness is in my hands, not others.
7. How will the lessons from this past year change the way you approach the new year?
I've let myself get caught up in too much and have stopped appreciating what I'm doing and who I'm doing it for. Learning to say 'No' more often and not feel guilty for doing so is one thing I want and need to start doing more of.
8. What do you most want to do in 2015?
Be happy.
9. What do you most want to change about yourself? The world?
I want to accept and be happy with who I am. As for the world – Where do I start?
10. What one word do you hope will sum up what you hope to achieve in 2015?
I'm still trying to narrow it down to just one word. I want to be 'present' more, 'appreciate' and have more 'purpose' in 2015.
No end of year wrap up would be complete without listing my top posts – and it was no surprised to discover chocolate and slice recipes dominated the top 5!
1. Malteser and Mars Bar Slice
2. Malteser Fudge
3. Tim Tam Cheesecake Balls
4. Caramello Slice
5. Peppermint Slice
Finally I would like to thank each and every one of you for your support this year. I truly hope the Christmas season has been kind to you and look forward to 'seeing' you all in 2015.

I'm thrilled to be coming back to Lithgow Halloween to take on the role of The Ring Master again, says veteran Blue Mountains performer Timothy Hyde.
I'll be running the events on the Cook St Plaza Stage, introducing the acts and running the Best Dressed Competition.
Lynda and I had a great time there last year, meeting some wonderful colourful characters. What we really loved was how it was an "all ages event," very family friendly and how 95% of the people made an effort to dress up in some way! We can't wait to do it again! Oh, and the train! That looked great, wish we had time to do the trip but it's such a busy night on the street.

- Reproductive biology.
- Resistance to viruses.
- Development of molecular markers.

Focused around Nordic melancholia, the designer showed monochrome looks with coated fabrics and broken hemlines
Jean Phillip is one of those designers who's on a constant journey of growth and that gets better for each collection and season. Having not attended fashion school, Jean Phillip decided to launch his own label of monochrome but layered clothing that carries a strong identity of Nordic melancholia a while back. He tends to work in leather and coated fabrics, but this time he added broken hemlines to emphasize the independent spirit of a Samurai.
Dazed Digital: Where does your inspiration come from for this collection?
Jean Phillip: The inspiration came from the south, the Samurai, and his amour and independence as a man, and I developed it in a darker though softer side of him, the way I see him...
DD: How have you grown since your last collection?
Jean Phillips: The material choices have chanced for the better, more tailoring, and grown a better eye for the details in the garments. This season we have developed different washes for the garments to evolve and look, somehow worn and loved.
DD: Does CFW give you a good platform for international sales?
Jean Phillip: In some way it does, as the show gives people around the world the chance to look at my work, when they see the videos and runway pictures on the web and blogs. The sales are done in Paris during the Menswear Week, where Copenhagen is more of a media Fashion Week for us, as almost all buyers come to us in Paris.
DD: Tell me about the location and set up of the show; how do they tell the story of your collection?
Jean Phillip: The location is City Hall, the centre of Copenhagen. Its big old, and beautiful building, the setup is dark, and black, and tells a story of a man who has fought his way through the night.
DD: What impact would you like to give?
Jean Phillip: Look and vibe that tells people another story, tell them something new... isn't that what fashion is all about?

The Two Keys To Social Media Success
Written by Tony Restell / July 18, 2013
Disney's adaptation of Stephen Slesinger, Inc.'s Winnie-the-Pooh (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
You can spend an age researching social media effectiveness. What's the best time to share, which approaches work best on different platforms, which tools can you use to leverage your time more effectively, what's the right balance of promotional content…. The tweaks you can make are endless.
Yet in my experience, social media success comes down to two key things. Whenever I speak to anyone not achieving the results they'd like to be achieving on social networks, invariably they've dropped the ball in one or other of these areas:
Attracting Interest + Having the Honey = Social Media Success
I honestly believe that if you assess your own social activities, you'll find that you're deficient in one or other of these areas. It could be a social networking deficiency full stop, or it could be that your results are being let down on just one or two social sites owing to unintentional differences in your approach on each. For example, overall I think we do both these things well at Social-Hire – except on Facebook, where we consciously don't invest much time in "Attracting Interest" and we have less "Honey" than on our other network profiles. The upshot? Of all the mainstream social platforms, it's the one where we generate more modest results. Now if that's a conscious decision, it's not a problem. But with most people I talk to, they're failing in one or other area on some of their social profiles without having made the conscious decision to do so. That's costing them dear.
So let's spell out what we mean by Attracting Interest and Having the Honey. Allow me to tackle them in reverse order if you will, as it's Attracting Interest that seems to receive far less coverage.
Have You Got the Honey?
Pots of honey that are full to the brim attract Winnie the Pooh every time! Those with barely a trace of honey left get only the most cursory of glances!… and so it is with your social profiles. When someone first comes across your social profile, does it entice them and make them want to follow you, engage with you, share what you've shared? Or do they quickly move on to the next profile in the hope of finding someone more appealing?
The importance here is that you can invest lots of time and money attracting interest in your profile, but if there's not enough honey to entice people to stick around then your efforts at attraction will mostly be in vain. Consider some of the following:
Is your profile warm and engaging, or cold and corporate? Is there some personality that shines through? (People warm to other people)
Do you appear to engage with your followers and network, or purely broadcast to them? (People don't like being sold to and they don't like know-it-alls)
Does your follower / following ratio indicate you are desperate to build your social presence, or that you seem to attract followers with ease? (People are rarely attracted to someone who appears desperate)
Do you share valuable information and insights from a broad range of sources, or only your own materials? (People like to learn and further their knowledge)
Do you seem like someone who Pays It Forward (People are attracted to those who seem willing to help without expecting anything in return)
Is your profile one that they've frequently seen in social streams, being engaged by others, being shared by or recommended by others? (People are reassured by social proof)
When you think about some of the most obvious examples of recruiters generating poor results from their social investments, you can immediately see how they're falling short in terms of "Having the Honey".
How many people's profiles have you seen on Twitter where their following count is close to 2,000 but their followers count is barely at 200?! Your immediate reaction is "if 90% of people are deeming this person to not be worth following, they're probably not worth my while following either!"
How many recruiters have you seen on LinkedIn whose update activity is a constant stream of job adverts and requests to help them fill their latest role? "Is this person really going to add value to my professional day to day life?" is the kind of reaction that this activity will prompt.
How often have you seen someone on Google+ (or indeed LinkedIn) sharing the same update into dozens and dozens of communities or groups, without targeting their messages adequately and without mixing up the sharing of their own and other people's materials? This immediately comes across as someone who's in it for themselves and only paying lip service to sharing valuable information and resources.
How many people immediately ask you to "like" their Facebook page or visit their website as the first impression they create when you connect. Wouldn't asking if there's any way you could help them generate far more goodwill and interest in your profile?
So I challenge you – on each social network where you aspire to having a strong presence and noteworthy results – to go back and review the first (and ongoing) impressions that other users will have of your profile and activity. This will have a huge impact on the numbers of people who choose to follow you… and the numbers of people who stick with you.
Are You Attracting Interest?
Having the Honey is all well and good, but you've got to leave a scented trail if you want Winnie to actually find the honey! On a serious note, the networks where I've had the greatest success have been those where I've taken time to think of all the ways it's possible to help people and get on their radars… and then to do all these things in a way that means you aren't overly focusing on any one approach. Take each network of interest to you and spend a few minutes thinking about all the ways you could get your profile noticed by the right sorts of people:
These activities all help to raise the visibility of your profile. But nonetheless we're wary aren't we? We've all seen it happen. The above all have the potential to be used in a spammy manner. The new twitter user who immediately follows 2,000 people. The LinkedIn user who is obviously spending hours of their time just handing out meaningless endorsements. These negative connotations can push people too far in the opposite direction – to the point where they are hardly doing these things at all. Done in moderation – and in a way that is targeted, tailored and personable – they can be highly effective.
Concluding Remarks
If you want success on a social network, it's critical that you ensure you Have the Honey and that you Attract Interest so that enough people come to learn that you Have the Honey. Having the Honey without Attracting Interest is like opening a fabulous shop in completely the wrong location. It's loved by those who do stumble across it, but ultimately the shop produces poor returns for the owner. Don't let yourself be the person who invests in their social profiles but then gets poor returns.
Be honest with yourself in every social network where you want to invest and objectively assess whether you're really doing these two things as well as you possibly could. If you'd like a frank assessment or someone to brainstorm with, you're most welcome to schedule a call to pick my brains. Tools, timing, sharing valuable content – they've all been written about at great length and they all contribute to success. But your overall social success will be a function of how well you get the above two elements just right. Fall short with either one and your results will be compromised.

In our estimation, at least, EA is delivering the graphics it needs to ensure that the game is appropriately atmospheric. And by "atmospheric" we mean "eeeeeeeee."
