Closed consultation
Increasing the transparency of donations and loans to Northern Ireland political parties
We are analysing your feedback
Visit this page again soon to download the outcome to this public feedback.
Consultation description
The Minister of State for Northern Ireland, the Rt Hon Andrew Robathan MP today published draft legislation which would increase the transparency of donations and loans to Northern Ireland political parties.
The new law would enable the Electoral Commission to publish details of all donations made to Northern Ireland recipients since 2007, and loans made since 2008, providing this information does not identify the donor.
The proposed new law also provides for details of all donations from public funds from 1st January 2014 to be released automatically and sets out how donors can consent to all the details of past donations being released.
Andrew Robathan said:
I believe that the current arrangements in Northern Ireland do not strike an appropriate balance between the public interest in information about political party funding and the security of individuals. The Government is committed to increasing the information available to the public about the funding of Northern Ireland parties on an incremental basis, taking into account the possible security risks.
The proposed changes will enable the Electoral Commission to provide information to the public about the scale and sources of funding to Northern Ireland parties for the first time. They will be an important first step towards transparency.
The Government is inviting comments on the proposed legislation. Responses are requested by 28 April 2014.

Hello there Pretty Peeps! I am thrilled to introduce today's guest blogger, Lucy of the Snail Nail. I am a big fan of her nail art and am so glad to have her on Nail Polish Society! Speaking of, I believe I discovered her blog because the name is basically the same as one I was considering for my blog- Snail Nail. You may remember me mentioning that I am a snail mail fanatic and that I've been pen palling for years. The inspiration for her blog name was completely different, and I love it (read about it here)! Anyway I'm so glad I stumbled upon it as I've been inspired by many of her manicures. I hope you get inspired too.
Take it away Lucy!---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi guys!
I'm Lucy and I blog over at the Nail Snail. I'm so glad to be able to guest post for Emiline for her first blogiversary! Her manicures are always amazing, so I felt like I really needed to challenge myself for this guest post :)
Like many nail artists, I follow WAH Nails on Instagram. Today's design is a sort of recreation of a design they posted awhile ago, with some changes (it's been in my inspiration folder since I started blogging!).
|Polishes Used
Wet n Wild French White Creme | Deborah Lippmann Break 4 Love | Wet n Wild Tickled Pink
When I started these, I thought they would be a total disaster -- my lines were super wobbly and all over the place! But white acrylic paint saved me.
Also, Deborah Lippmann's Break 4 Love is the perfect sassy and classic pink polish, don't you think?
I hope you guys like these, and that they measure up to the high standard Emiline sets for this blog :)
Thanks so much for inviting me to guest post, and happy blogiversary!!
Lucy xx
I'd love to hear what you think in the comments! Thank you Lucy for helping me celebrate my One Year Blogiversary! Thank you for reading and don't forget to comeback for the final blogger in my guest post series. You won't want to miss it!

SAN FRANCISCO -- Transradial access for angiography or stenting doesn't increase patients' radiation exposure compared with femoral access, researchers said here.
"In every model we ran to control for potential biases, there were no differences in exposure," Ronak Delewi, MD, of the University of Amsterdam told MedPage Today. Delewi and colleagues, who analyzed data from almost 4,000 procedures done at a single-center, reported their findings at the Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics (TCT) meeting.
She explained that there has been limited and contradictory data regarding radiation exposure during PCI and coronary angiography performed either via the radial or femoral route.
For instance, the RIVAL study -- the largest study to date that compared radial with femoral access -- found a significant increase in radiation exposure with radial access.
But Delewi said the trial was largely done in the U.S., where radial access has accounted for a small minority of interventional and diagnostic procedures. Thus, the small numbers plus the differences in clinician training and confidence, as well as in the learning curves, could have a significant impact on the results, she said.
To further clarify the issue, Delewi and colleagues prospectively assessed data from 3,973 patients who had PCI or coronary angiography at Academic Medical Center in Amsterdam between June 22, 2004 and Dec. 31, 2008.
In an attempt to reduce the effects of selection bias and potential confounding, they also created a prediction model for radiation exposure based on the femoral access group. They then compared that to the radial procedures to assess any potential differences between the observed and expected radiation exposure.
For PCI, a total of 2,623 patients had femoral access, and 1,350 had radial access; for coronary angiography, 314 patients had femoral access, and 138 were catheterized through the wrist.
The researchers found that the mean exposure of patients having PCI via the femoral route was 112 Gy-cm2, compared with 106 Gy-cm2 for radial procedures, which was not significantly different.
Nor were there any significant differences in radiation exposure for coronary angiography patients catheterized via either route (59 Gy-cm2 for femoral access versus 52 Gy-cm2 for radial access).
Delewi added that the findings remained unchanged in several multivariate models.
She and colleagues also found that the observed radiation exposure during radial access wasn't higher than the expected exposure as predicted by the femoral access-based prediction model for either procedure (101 Gy-cm2 observed versus 117 Gy-cm2 expected).
She said that since the study assessed data only through 2008, more follow-up is needed because the use of transradial access during interventional and diagnostic procedures has increased since that time. With the corresponding increase in better clinician training on wrist access, Delewi said she expects that the procedure may ultimately offer less radiation exposure than the transfemoral route.
The researchers reported no conflicts of interest.

Doll's House Continuation of the story Nora has left Torvald and her home in search of self-development. She is now staying with her good friend, Christine. Christine was contented to take her in until she found a place to live. There was exciting news that Christine wanted to tell Nora. She told Nora that she's with Krogstad again and they're thinking of getting married. Nora was thrilled for Christine to hear such wonderful news. Nora decided that she would travel to some country and see what the world holds for her. Christine supported her. Only for two days, Nora stayed at Christine's house. She wanted to leave as soon as possible to start her life again. Brazil was where Nora decided to travel. Torvald still wanted to keep in contact with Nora, but he knew she wouldn't talk to him or see him again. Christine was his only connection to her.
Nora left town and her adventure began. She tried out as being a secretary for a small company, but she did so poorly and ended up getting fired. An actress, which Nora thought was the perfect career for her, was what Nora decided to try out. She was very determined to pursue this career. As years past by, Nora became very successful and she got the fame that she always wanted. She wrote to Christine and told her that she's been doing very well. Meanwhile, Torvald was unhappy and very depressed about Nora leaving him. He asked Christine how Nora was doing, and the word "great"ÃÂ was used. He was happy for her to find something that she enjoyed doing, but he was still miserable because she left him. Torvald pondered nights and days wishing so much for Nora to be at his side. Lately, Torvald had been drinking a lot, slacking off in his job, and paid no attention to his children. As weeks past by, Torvald got weak and tried. He became very ill. His body got very swollen and hardened. The doctor said he wasn't sure what kind of disease he has, but he knew his heart could explode anytime. This sickness was severe and he could die anytime soon. Torvald contacted Christine about his terrifying news. He wanted Christine to tell Nora that he was dying and he will always care about her no matter what happens. When Nora heard about Torvald's news, she was shocked and scared. Torvald wanted very much to see Nora one last before he go. Nora immediately flew over to see him. When she entered into his room, she saw Torvald lying in his bed lifelessly. "Torvald!"ÃÂ Nora cried out. She rushed to his bed and leaned beside him. Nora sobbed and sobbed. Torvald tilted his head slowly to Nora and looked into her teary eyes. Torvald spoke quietly and softly, "I'm so glad you're here. When I'm gone..."ÃÂ Nora interrupted, "Please don't say that."ÃÂ Tovald said, "Take good care of our children. I know you can do it. I will always keep you in my heart. Farewell, my love."ÃÂ His eyes closed and his head titled away slowly. Nora shook him begging for him to wakeup, "Torvald, no! Please wakeup!"ÃÂ Nora spoke out softly, "I'm so sorry."ÃÂ She then lay beside him.

Senior politician Arif Mohammad Khan today said that in 1986, the then Congress government headed by Rajiv Gandhi had struck a deal with Muslim leaders for the "shilanyas" (groundbreaking) of the Ram Janambhoomi temple in Ayodhya.
Arif Mohammad Khan urged the Modi government to take the initiative for resolving the dispute after the Supreme Court advised the concerned parties to opt for an out-of-court settlement.
Khan said the unlocking of the Babri Masjid was a balancing act to satisfy the demands of the Hindu community after the Rajiv Gandhi government succumbed to the demands of the All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) on the Shah Bano case in the Supreme Court on maintenance for divorced Muslim women.
"The announcement to reverse the SC judgement (Shah Bano case) and the removal of the locks happened within a span of two weeks. This to most people appeared as a balancing act and they hoped that now both the agitating parties would feel satisfied," Khan, author of "Text and Context -- Quran and Contemporary Challenges" who broke ranks with Rajiv Gandhi in 1985 on the government's capitulation to the Muslim clergy on implementing the Shah Bano judgement that ruled in favour of alimony to divorced Muslim women, told IANS in an interview.
"On the other hand, the removal of the lock practically accepted the disputed structure as a temple and consequently the demand to build a proper temple to carry out the functions that were already taking place inside the building gained more strength. Possibly that led the then government to agree to the shilanyas under the careful watch of the then Home Minister," he added.
Speaking on the politics that went behind the opening of the locks in 1986, Khan said :"AIMPLB asserted that the judgement of the Supreme Court in Shah Bano is a threat to 'Milli Tashakkhus' that is a separate and distinct community identity, and they used very aggressive and threatening language during the agitation... But the announcement to this effect on January 15, 1986, created a severe blowback and within a week the government felt the need to do something to divert attention from the Shah Bano case."
"At that stage, Ayodhya came in handy and the local administration -- that is, the District Magistrate and Superintendent of Police -- personally appeared before the District Court (Faizabad) and stated that removing the lock from the main gate of the disputed structure will not create any law and order problem," he said.
The locks of the Babri Majid were opened in February 1986 on the order of the District Court of Faizabad.
Speaking on the role of Rajiv Gandhi in the entire dispute, Khan said: "After the removal of the locks, I met Rajiv Gandhi and he told me that before the lock was removed the Muslim leaders were informed about it."
Speaking on the role of senior Congress leaders like N.D. Tiwari, Buta Singh, Arjun Singh and P.V. Narasimha Rao (who was the Prime Minister when Hindu fundamentalists razed the Babri Masjid in 2002), he said: "These leaders were of the view that the government cannot play the role of a social reformer, particularly of a minority community."
Without criticising them, Khan said: "From one viewpoint their stand was understandable as they did not want to take any risk of diluting their political constituency."
"In fact, I firmly hold that AIMPLB would never have succeeded in pressurising Rajiv Gandhi to do their bidding, but he was open to advice from his senior colleagues," he added.

Hopefully, you've landed here via Cindy's blog (here) but if not, you might like to go back to the Counterfeit Kit Challenge blog (here) to catch the start of the hop. That way, you'll soak up all the inspiration and fun along the way.
This month, the mini-challenges posted on the CKC blog were:
- Challenge #1 - Create a tone on tone background
- Challenge #2 - Sketch challenge - Retro Sketches #110
- Challenge #3 - Line them up.
I broke into my precious sheets of real wood veneer "paper" and used my Big Shot along with my favourite star dies as well as a mini Memory box die of hearts and tiny stars. The dies cut perfectly which surprised me because I was worried the thin dies wouldn't manage to cut the wood. But the cuts really were perfect, the edges are smooth and the shapes popped out without any trouble at all.
|June kit, Woodgrain, layout #7
|I wanted to use bright papers and embellishments as a contrast to the neutrals and to support the theme of my niece being such a cutie star!
|Kraft cardstock worked well for the veneer tone on tone look
Thanks for dropping by today and I hope you picked up some inspiration along the way. I'm the last on the hop but if you got lost along the way, you can find the full list over at the Counterfeit Kit Challenge blog (here)

Red root rot is a late season disease characterized by the pink to red discoloration of the root and crown tissue, usually not apparent until just prior to senescence. Above ground symptoms develop quickly in a 4 to 5 day interval during late ear fill. Stalks and foliage turn a green to gray color and the plant will die prematurely. Depending on weather conditions, severe lodging can occur following infection. Symptoms of this disease are most frequently seen where corn is grown in high population, fertility, and irrigated environments.
The causal agents of red root rot are complex of fungi that includes Phoma terrestris as the primary pathogen in association with Pythium and Fusarium species. P. terrestris is widespread saprophytic organism that colonizes the underground parts of a variety of hosts. It is very resilient, being able to survive for years in the soil under a wide range of temperature and pH conditions through the use of fungal structures called, microsclerotia. Recent research indicates that early infection of Pythium and other fungal species weakens the root system allowing P. terrestris to invade earlier and more effectively. Further research is needed to provide more details on this disease. (Blog and pictures provided by Nick Prudhomme, U of I Plant Clinic Student.)

Since 1992, Michael Perrault, PE has been the Principal of P.M.P. Associates, LLC Civil Engineering & Land Planning Consultants. He served as President of the Southeast Chapter of MSPE in the late 1970s and currently serves as an MSPE Director. Michael is also a Life Member in the American Society of Civil Engineers. He has answered the questions below, so we may know him better. Thank you, Mike, for your membership and contributions to MSPE and the engineering profession.
Q: Why did you join MSPE?
A: I joined MSPE in the late 1970s at the suggestion of a Professional Electrical Engineer friend. The Southeast Chapter members were fellow practicing professional engineers with various backgrounds. Membership in the Society provided both a social as well as a technical network.
Q: What are your goals as an engineer?
A: I set my initial engineering goal, which was to obtain my professional registration. That goal was achieved in the late 1970s. Technology at that time was advancing at a rapid pace and my career / professional goal was to continue to learn new technologies and how they can be applied in my civil engineering profession. In conjunction with the technology, my overall goal was to open my own engineering consulting firm, which I did in 1992, and it has been in operation since then. That allowed me the opportunity to mentor over 10 Northeastern University Co-op students.
Q: Please describe a project that you're involved with.
A: I am involved with so many civil engineering related projects. One of the more interesting projects was the design of an outdoor Kart racing facility in East Bridgewater. The advanced Karts can travel up to 95 mph.
Q: How did you get involved with this project?
A: I got involved with the Kart track as a result of the initial design and permitting of the front portion of the property which included a mini-golf, batting cages and slick go-cart track.

That translates to an increase of roughly $20 a month for the typical Social Security recipient.
The 1.7 percent cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) will begin with benefits that more than 58 million Social Security beneficiaries receive in January. Increased payments to more than 8 million Supplemental Security Income beneficiaries will begin on Dec. 31.

Absorbing quickly into the skin, the leave-on exfoliant targets both the skin's surface and deep down, sloughing away dulling dead skin cells whilst penetrating inside the pore to reshape and unclog deep within. Redness and blemishes are addressed and reduced.
Its lightweight texture delivers deep exfoliation and increases cell turnover so skin looks renewed and radiant with a more even tone. Salicylic acid harnesses antioxidant properties and increases collagen production; the appearance of wrinkles are reduced and skin feels firmer, healthier.

IMPORTANT: Those allergic to aspirin (acetylsalicylate) should not use products containing salicylic acid (beta hydroxy acid).
BHA Advice:
To reduce skin flaking or possible irritation, some first-time users should use the BHA once a day or once every other day (preferably at night) for the first few weeks. After prolonged use (4-6 weeks), you can apply the BHA more frequently, and eventually it can be used twice a day. For some people it may only be necessary to use the BHA once a day or once every other day. The frequency of use for this BHA product completely depends on how your skin reacts so you may have to experiment until you find what works best for you. If redness, dryness, or irritation occurs, adjust frequency of application.

This vintage hand crocheted doily measures 10-1/2 inch before starching and blocking - once properly blocked it will be a little larger. In the center is a layered or raised petal pink rose flower in variegated pink fine gauge cotton thread, encircled by green shell stitching representing leaves.Rows of white shells surround the green, followed by a band of raised pink ruffling, then more white chained shells and scallops. There's a small, faint yellowish spot at about 9 o'clock where the pink and center white rows join, which I'm sure will launder out fine. Otherwise the doily is in excellent condition.

Here's some broken records to let you know how well Nintendo did on this past Black Friday:
I get the 3DS, as it's a hot Christmas item, and Skyward Sword and Super Mario 3D Land are both great games that should be under every tree, but it's really surprising to hear that the Wii broke Nintendo's one-day record this year. More than 500,000 in one day? Maybe it's that new price point. Or the blue color. Or something I missed.
As for the 3DS, it's already beating out the first-year Nintendo DS sales numbers, and in only 8 months. The holiday isn't even over, and Mario Kart 7 is still coming this season.
Enjoy your money, Nintendo!

Two-faced Sony turns it's back on football in their latest ad
Sony, the Champions League sponsor, has recently released a new advert Stateside in which football takes centre stage as the butt of the joke as Sony look to grow their brand.
Without blowing anything out of proportion, it's only a TV ad, but the idea that Sony feel that Americans will connect with soccer being ridiculed is a point worth noting. We hear so much about how hard the MLS are working to improve soccer's reputation in America, but this ad suggests that soccer is still considered very much a second class sport in the US.
Adding to the confusion of Sony's two-faced approach to football is the news that Sony Ericsson will become the "Official Mobile Phone Handset" of the 2010 FIFA World Cup. According to Lennard Hoornik, Corporate Vice President and Head of Global Marketing: "At Sony Ericsson we feel we are uniquely placed to be a champion of football fans worldwide, using the marketing and promotional rights this agreement grants us to make Sony Ericsson handsets and accessories an integral part of the fan experience. Our role in football will be to use our sponsorship to innovate the experience of fans and give them greater access to football."
So which one is it, do Sony love football or laugh at it?
The Sony ad can be seen here.

Toshiaki Suzuki: 2017 PT-MBA Graduation
Toshiaki Suzuki of Japan shares his message for the 2017 graduating PT-MBA class of GLOBIS University on May 14, 2017.
In his speech, he touched on the theme of kokorozashi, or personal mission, a cornerstone of the GLOBIS curriculum, saying, "The Entrepreneurial Leadership class gave me a precious opportunity to consider myself and my personal mission. I discovered that my kokorozashi is contributing to developing countries' growth from the point of ICT and business. Luckily, I could find a new job as an international development consultant.... Happiness to me is to contribute to others or society. I can feel my own value of why I am alive."

I have been promising this tutorial for a couple of months and decided to do it tonight. I do not know if this unit has another name but I call it double flying geese and it is featured in Block 14 of the Graceful Air, Land and Sea BOM.
The double flying geese unit made I will finish with here is 2 1/2 inches high x 4 1/2 inches wide before being set into the block. I will put in brackets the sizes you need to cut to make 2 inch x 3 1/2 inch, 3 inch x 5 1/2 inch geese
I will give the instructions for making the triangle units using both the half square triangle ruler and also by the traditional method.
First up we need to cut the centre square that measures 2 inches x 2 inches (1 3/4 inches, 2 1/4 inches,)
You also need a pair of half square triangles cut from a 2 inch strip (1 3/4 inches, 2 1/4 inches )if you have the half square triangle ruler. These are the lower triangles on the lower edge of the geese unit.
If you do not have a half square triangle ruler cut one 2 3/8 inch square( 2 1/8 inches, 2 5/8 inches) and cut diagonally to yield the two triangles needed.
For the larger upper wings that we normally use cut a pair of half square triangles cut from a 2 1/2 inch strip (2 inches, 3 inches )if you have the half square triangle ruler
If you do not have a half square triangle ruler cut one 2 7/8 inch square( 2 3/8 inches, 3 3/8 inches) diagonally to yield the two triangles needed.
We will sew the right hand "wing" to the square first so make sure your triangles are oriented as they are below. By doing this the notch on the triangle makes the triangle side the same size as the square.
Stitch the seam
Finger press this wing out. Do not press with the iron as you can stretch the wings
.Add the left "wing" triangles in the same manner.
Your unit should now look like this
and before you go nay further you need to make sure that this lower geese unit is trimmed to the 2 1/2 inch line on a quarter square ruler if you have one.
Gently press the units out and then add the remaining "larger wings" as you would for normal geese units.
Your finished geese units should look like the one at the top of the post and below and measure 2½ inches high x 4½ inches wide.
The square on the back of the unit should lie flat.
Press each unit and trim the side "bunny ears"

|Topshop Lipstick In Secret Admirer
Today I received a lipstick I ordered from Topshop a couple of weeks ago. It is a velvet finish (whatever that means) lipstick in the shade "Secret Admirer". Topshop describe this as a "warm nude" but it's not a nude at all nor is it warm. Secret Admirer is a light cool toned pink but very easy to wear. Perfect for days when you don't want to look too made up. It is similar to MAC's Creme Cup lipstick but in a more opaque and matte finish.
This is my third Topshop lipstick and I really love their formula. Topshop lipsticks smell like roses and they're really creamy and long lasting. The packaging of Topshop lipsticks is adorable but they get dirty pretty quickly.
Topshop makeup is sold in larger Bay stores across Canada but the selection is limited. I went to both the Toronto Queen Street and Yorkdale locations to see if they had this lipstick and neither store had it in stock so I ordered this online. Topshop lipsticks are priced at $17+ tax ($19.21 in Ontario) but are £8.00/$12.73 CAD if you order them online.

Exciting news today for all of us fans of Max Rockatansky (Mel Gibson) and the post-apocalyptic world that Director George Miller created. Warner Bros. Home Entertainment is releasing all three of the Mad Max films to Blu-Ray on June 4th, now Mad Max and the Road Warrior are already available but this will be the first time that Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome will be available on HD.
Mad Max Theatrical Trailer (1979)
I will assume that the Blu-Ray version of Mad Max will present the original Australian dialogue version and not the American dubbed version as you can hear in the trailer above.
Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior (1981)
Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome (1985)
No word yet on if any of the films will have special features such as commentary or perhaps a retrospective of the Mad Max trilogy. A preview of next year's Mad Max: Fury Road would be a welcome addition to the collection though in my opinion.
From the Warner Bros. Press Release: "From the very first film, Oscar winner George Miller (Happy Feet, 2006) proved a master at creating the gritty, bleak dystopian world and staging the incredible car stunts and crashes in the era when stuntmen, not computers, achieved the effects. All three movies starred Mel Gibson, virtually unknown until after the second film, as Max Rockatansky, a highway cop traveling through the Outback in a society descending into chaos. The films started Gibson on his road to international superstardom, led to his signature Lethal Weapon series, and later two Academy Awards for his roles as producer and director of Braveheart (1995)."
The Mad Max Trilogy Blu-ray Collection will come in a limited premium tin packaging for $49.99, making a great gift for Father's Day. Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome, which is making its Blu-ray debut, will also be made available as a single release along with Mad Max Road Warrior."

American Muslim Jurists: Offensive Jihad -- Not Yet
The Assembly of Muslim Jurists of America (AMJA) opposes offensive jihad in the West, but for reasons that may surprise you. In an Arabic fatwa (religious decree) that doesn't appear on its English Web site, it states that "the Islamic community does not possess the strength to engage in offensive jihad at this time [emphasis added]." This doesn't mean that all jihad is to be abandoned. "With our current capabilities, we are aspiring towards defensive jihad, and to improve our position with regards to jurisprudence at this stage. But there is a different discussion for each situation," it said. [more...]
CAIR: War on Terror Is Made Up
On February 11, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) sent out a newsletter with the subject line, "Creating America's War on Terror." The message is that the U.S. government is victimizing Muslim Americans under the guise of a made-up war on terrorism. The Islamist terror threat is the creation of a money-seeking FBI. In making its case, CAIR linked to a radio segment on an interfaith-themed radio show. [more...]

Norway: Republic or monarchy?
From time to time, the Norwegian political party SV (Socialist Left) raise the question of the Norwegian form of government or more precisely, the question of monarchy vs. republic. They have it on their party programme that the question shall be raised once every elected term. (If I remember it right):whistling:
This was the case today, where the proposal came up for voting in Stortinget, the Norwegian parliament. 21 representatives voted in favour of changing it, whereas 106 representatives voted against, NTB reports. This is actually a decrease in 22.85% from four years ago, when 26 voted in favour of changing it, and 126 voted against.
Representative Djupedal from SV, pointed out that raising the question is a matter of principle, which has nothing to do with the way the royal family is performing their duties.
If it is up to the elected members of parliament, it seems that the Norwegian monarchy is standing quite strong.
You are correct
Yes, you are correct, SV has adopted the vote for republic in their party programme and their Swedish counterpart, Vensterpartiet has done the same.
Both parties enters the motion to abolish the Monarchy every year and I have heard from a friend who works for the government in Sweden that they bet on how many votes the motion gets from other parties.
It is a vaste of time in my opinion.:norwayflag:
I have a long list of opinions about SV and Djupedal, but given that it mostly has nothing to do with royalty, it's best to keep quiet. :rolleyes:
A recent article says that 40percent of Noways Parliament is in favor of a Monarchy? I've been wondering, why is the Monarchy not always viewed so favorably? I like all of the main Royal Family quite a bit but I must say, it does lack some magic. They dont always come across as royals.
:previous: Even when Princess Maud became Queen consort of King Haakon, the Norwegian court was quite low key and unpretentious. They were both true royals. In the current family the only true royal is King Harald. Both the CP and Princess Martha Louise are half commoners.
The next generation will be even more democratic, less royal.
Perhaps the Norwegians will decide in the future that there would be no need for them for a royal family since they would not be royal at all except for the titles...(JMHO):flowers:
Does anyone know how close the vote has EVER gotten to abolish the monarchy? I would be interested in that. Thanks in advance,
It was founded in 1905.
I never heard anything about the monarchy being close to be abolished.
4 out of 10 Representatives in Stortinget would rather opt for a Republic. So 60% are pro-monarchy.
(so, it's still more then , for example, in Sweden... there more then 50% of the members of the Parliament opt for a republic).
King Haakon was elected by the Norwegian people. He and his successors were always very dopwn-to-earth and never really pompous.
I think that is somehow what makes the Norwegian monarchy.
I always got the feeling that this is what the people in Norway value.
Your right HM, I met Republic not Monarchy. oops.
I've always wondered if it was the laid back approach that the Norwegian people embraced in the Monarchy. I still feel it could use a bit more mystery. Its that unknown element of the monarchy that makes it alluring. I think the Danish court balances the perfect amount of mystic and openness.
However, I adore Haakon and MM and think they will make a great King and Queen.
It's a temporary and traditional hypelike thing popping up every 4 to 8 years or so.
Norway,btw,has the very least reason to complain in this so-called hyped up crisis.
It is such a wealthy country,"filthy rich" would be best to discribe it .The Monarchy has never been,and still isn't,in any serious danger.
Norway can best count it's blessings as it is a steady,prosperous and beautifull piece on the globe.

I agree with you! But some staunch republicans keep on using this "too-much-money" theme for their cause, because there are not many other pros for them and it´s a sensitive matter to almost everyone:ermm:
I Say keep it its Symbolic!
The Royal House is more than symbolics in Norway. You can't compare it to i.e. Sweden.
I Love the fact that the Royal house is young and dynamic, breath of fresh air to the country. Absolutly love Queen Sonja and Princess Mette Marit. They get what the people want and feel
Two high-profile politicians representing the most staunchly monarchist parties in Norway have spoken out against the institution of royalty in a new book to be released on Tuesday. The outspoken deputy leader of the Progress Party (Fremskrittspartiet, FrP), Per Sandberg, said anyone concerned with democracy should be against the monarchy, while for the first time ever a Conservative (Høyre) politician, Trade Minister Monica Mæland, voiced support for a republic.
Sandberg also argued that what he sees as the increasing political involvement of Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess Mette-Marit was cause for concern, especially because he claimed the royal couple was too left-leaning. That just strengthens my position that we should not have a monarchy, he said. It will lead to more and more people becoming republicans. In that sense it is okay for me that the crown prince and princess become stronger, more visible and clearer on their political standpoint, because that will strengthen the argument we do not need a royal house.
Politicians rise up against monarchy
These guys are just angry about the CP couple´s "left-socialist" ideas because these are against their own poltical (conservative) conviction.
The monarchy IS a democratic institution, as long as supported by a majority!
I am surprised to see the Crown Princely couple drawing the ire of local politicians. If Crown Prince Haakon and his spouse crossed the line, they should be advised to tone down their stance.
I´m not sure they would listen...? I assume they have very strong principles about certain issues they won´t allow others to interfere.
TBH I think that royals should stay away from most polemic things if they want to make the institute survive and serve a purpose. Since they need to be above party politics and debates and serve as a unifying element for a country, they should keep their opinions to themselves.
The Monarchy here in Norway is more popular than it has been for a long time, and it is popular support that counts. The monarchy has been debated several times, it's nothing new. King Harald, Queen Sonja, Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess Mette-Marit enjoys big support in both the population and in the media. Several experts say that putting the monarchy on the agenda vill be political suicide. Haakon and Mette Marit has strong opinions, but has never interfered in political matters. The matter now is that some politicians has expressed themselves in a ridiculous book called republic of Norway.

We all know about the ongoing various space exploration experiments by multiple space agencies and the world's most renowned one, which is of course NASA. But have you ever been curious to know about what will happen if we wring out a wet cloth in space?
Recently, Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield conducted an experiment on the demand of two 10th standard students Kendra Lemke and Meredith Faulkner who wanted to know what happens when you wring out a water-soaked washcloth in a zero gravity.
Chris Hadfield, who lives on the International Space Station (ISS) these days, was pleased to entertain the query of these two students and beautifully represented the effect of water in space. For the experiment, he used a tightly circular shaped packed washcloth (which he remarks looks like a hockey puck) on the ISS. Instead of dipping the cloth into a water vessel – which interestingly would not hold water in the space due to zero gravity, he squirted water on the cloth.
Now once he made that cloth watery, he started twisting it out smoothly and later tightly to squeeze out the water as that is usually how the phenomenon works here on Earth. Surprisingly, that did not turn out to be the case in zero gravity. Hadfield kept twisting that cloth but instead of dripping, the water began to roll over his hands and all around the cloth to form a jellylike appearance all over the astronaut's hand.
Watch this video clip to see the effect of water in space and get a better idea about you have read yet in the above lines.
I loved watching this interesting experimental video by the astronaut! I hope you all liked it and loved reading this article.

So, my question is, is there another friend widget that I can download. I don't really like the look or feel of Launcher Pro's People Widget, or just the Direct Dial/Messaging short cuts.

text: EAST LANSING, Mich. - America's High Plains are far from dry, sitting on an underground water stock nearly equal to lakes Huron and Erie combined. Despite its vast holdings, the Ogallala Aquifer is losing water, and scientists are looking for ways to halt that shrinkage and secure the future of the region's vital agricultural output. The system includes parts of South Dakota, Wyoming, Colorado, Nebraska, Kansas, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Texas. A $1.2 million, four-year National Science Foundation grant to Michigan State University aims to help plan for improved management of the aquifer. Researchers will review decades of data and examine the interactions among the region's landscape, atmosphere and socio-economic systems.

Kontron Australia offers a new line of fanless thin panel PCs in five sizes ranging from 7 inches to 17 inches.
Available from Kontron, global specialists in embedded computing technology, Micro Client IIA fanless panel PCs are Intel Atom-based touch panel PCs that feature a resistive touch display with ample display area for complex visualisation applications such as industrial automation, process control and facility management.
Conceptualised as application-ready Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs), Kontron Micro Client IIA touch panel PCs featuring IP65 protected front panels enable faster time-to-market and reduced development costs for applications such as operation and monitoring of equipment, machines and plants.
The small depth of the panel PCs (56mm for 17-inch panels) also allows easy deployment in existing applications that require a larger display.
Kontron Micro Client IIA touch panel PCs support all current thin client software platforms from RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) for Microsoft Windows-based servers to Linux-based open platforms with browser-based Java clients.
Operators benefit from such open source software options through the open and runtime license-free access to both centralised and decentralised web server applications.
Kontron's latest panel PCs can also be used for several visualisation tasks without requiring any application-specific software to be installed on the client.
The Kontron Micro Clients IIA touch panel PCs feature not only SATA and CompactFlash boot functionality, but can also be remotely booted via Ethernet. This facilitates the administration of the complete solution since only the software on the respective industrial servers such as a Kontron KISS server must be administered.
Key features:
- Comprehensive interface selection:
- 2x 10/1000 Ethernet
- 2 external USB 2.0 ports plus additional USB port on the front for screen sizes from 10.4" to 17.0"

- Front panel can be omitted enabling the Kontron Micro Client IIA 170 to be integrated into all custom-specific housings including vandal-protected systems for public use; OEM needs to integrate the optional touch screen functionality
- Easy installation with bolt or clip panel mount plus the optional VESA mount
- Shock and vibration resistance, thermal stability and compliance with strict EMC standards
- Long-term availability of at least 5 years
The CE-certified Kontron Micro Client IIA 170 touch panel PCs support Windows CE, Windows XP Embedded and Embedded Linux operating systems.

St Mary's Episcopal Church was built in 1864 and served a dual purpose as a Church and a Boys School in the small fishing village of Cove Bay. In the 1890's a new school was built, the Loirston Annexe, which was replaced by Loirston School in 1981. Charleston School opened in 1999. St Mary's Church is now the last remaining public building of the old village. Aberdeen City Council has informed us the Church building is a B-Listed historic building.
The fishing village of Cove Bay was largely made up of imported English fishermen and their families, for whom the Episcopal faith was a central feature of life. St. Mary's has served generations of Cove families, and has been an important part of the village's life for over a century.
There was a strong connection from the very beginning to St. Peter's Episcopal Church in Torry. Often when there was no priest at St Mary's, members would walk along the coastal path to St Peter's for baptisms, confirmations, weddings or funerals. Many of our members still remember those days in the first half of the 20th century.
By the late 1990's, through cultural changes and shifts in population, the congregation had dwindled to a handful of faithful members, and St. Mary's building was in a sad state of disrepair.
In October 2003, it was agreed that Cove Congregational Church should share the building. Since then the physical church has seen on-going repairs, detailed below, and the spiritual Church has found new life. The two congregations, Episcopal and Congregational, have very different styles of worship but share many other aspects of the church's life—fellowship meetings, fundraisers, decisions about the property. The "Shared" aspect of the church has gained strength recently with the appointment of an Ecumenical Pastoral Assistant, who serves as a minister to both congregations

AUSTIN — For 20 years, Mary Vista Santos was the strong one. Even after her oldest son grew into a rugged, hard-hitting linebacker capable of striking fear into grown men who had the misfortune of carrying a football in his vicinity, Dalton Santos knew his mother was tougher. And in each of his lowest moments, he leaned on her.
Late Friday night, she leaned back. As he sat by her bedside in a Tyler hospital, processing the news that she had been diagnosed with an aortic aneurysm and required open-heart surgery despite having no health insurance, he struggled to show the strength she'd always had for him.
"I was bawling," Dalton Santos, a sophomore Texas linebacker from Van, said. "She said, 'How am I going to do this?' I had no answer."
By Sunday, though, he'd come up with one. After a family friend set up a donation page on YouCaring.com, Santos posted a message on Twitter asking his followers to help cover the cost of his mother's surgery. The initial goal was $5,000. Once UT fans began retweeting Santos' plea, that figure was surpassed within hours. By Wednesday afternoon, more than 500 donors had contributed more than $30,000.
UT's compliance office said donations to Santos' family are allowed under NCAA bylaw 188.8.131.52-(g).
Santos said he'll find out Monday when his mother will have the surgery, as well as how much it will cost (he said the family has been told it might run them $150,000). Through tears on Wednesday afternoon, Santos broke down several times when talking about the "unbelievable" support he's received from people he's never met. He said he was especially moved by a message from a Kansas 10-year old who pledged his entire monthly $25 allowance.
"It breaks me up inside to see that people really care," Santos said. "It's humbling. I'm so grateful and so thankful."
Santos said that when he drove to Tyler on Friday and saw her in the hospital, "it was the first time (he) ever saw her scared." But she urged him to return to UT for Saturday's spring scrimmage, and despite not wanting to leave, he finally gave in. He played, and was one of the Longhorns' defensive standouts.
"It was the weirdest thing," Santos said. "I wasn't even thinking about plays. It was all natural."
The next day, when he decided to turn to Twitter for help, he said he had no idea he'd receive so much support.
"I didn't expect much — maybe a couple thousand, a couple hundred," Santos said. "It's just unbelievable."

Matt Lamkin of the Soft Pack and Silver Shadows West Coast tour, Teach Me and Keepers live w/ the Spits
First off, a moment of reflection about the Oakland fires. I've been in my own state of shock and grief and am slowly getting back to focusing on this other stuff here. My thoughts go out to everyone involved. I had friends who were there that night and made it out safely; I had quite a few more who were close to going and decided not to. The first show I ever attended in the Bay was at a warehouse (the French Fry Factory), and the first show I ever played there was at the Ghost Town Gallery. I have more musical ties to friends in the Bay and Oakland specifically than anywhere else outside of where I live, and the creative freedom and resourcefulness of the music and arts community there is the richest that I know of in the country. There have been many thoughtful posts and articles regarding that scene in particular, the culture at large, and the nature of warehouse spaces like Ghost Ship. I was asked to do an interview for NBC San Diego and only agreed to help spread that message to folks who don't understand why these spaces exist and why these folks feel marginalized and in need of a space where they can live and work and make art and function with the freedom and openness that much of the establishment fails to provide. If you're reading this post at all, it's because you like and maybe need music, maybe as much as the folks involved in creating it like and need to do so. Everyone please remember to be there for each other. If you haven't done so yet, please consider contributing to the relief fund for friends and family of the victims.
Another short note, a few weeks back we had a sale to help raise funds for humanitarian and anti-bigotry organizations, and a number of you were nice enough to take part. Through your purchases, the label's been able to give $300 altogether to the Center for Reproductive Rights, the National Immigration Law Center, Planned Parenthood, ACLU, the Union of Concerned Scientists, and the Native Americans Rights Fund. We'll doing this again sometime in the new year.
And now on to the music...
Coming up in late January, we have the great honor of releasing two great debut albums by Silver Shadows and Matt Lamkin of the Soft Pack. We're currently in the middle of booking a West Coast tour with some dates pending. If you happen to be able to help, that'd be greatly appreciated. Otherwise, please take the chance to check out both bands if you can!

Role Call!! Where are my Utah PWD's at??
Hi! We are a family living and learning from diabetes everyday. Our son is being watched right now for the possibility of having diabetes and my husband has been T1 since he was 4. Yes, 4 years old. And what an adventure it is for all of us!
If you live in Utah too, give us a shout out! We'd love to learn that we aren't alone here in this big 'ol state.
11 replies
You're a newbie then! I too am from your area and hope you've been able to find some good resources so far.
The Diabetes Expo Sat. Feb 27th at the S. Towne Expo center is a great place to go. You'll be able to try lot's of foods (for FREEEE—my favorite word) and get lot's of great ideas. Hope you'll come out, I'd love to meet you!
I am not in Utah But I know your not alone there
Best wishes
Thanks Harlen!
