At the request of his deeply religious, dying mother, the former Christian Pippo Delbono created a performance based on the gospel. It became a stream of consciousness of stunning images, music and emotions which, above all, manage to capture the spirit of our time. An ultimate ode to love, the ultimate opposition to death. We are proud to present this wilful, generous and poetic performance in Brussels.
Pippo Delbono is a phenomenon. An eccentric theatre-maker and master in the art of living. With his quirky, poetic, personal, affectionate theatre idiom, which is also permeated with punk, he occupies a totally unique place on the international theatre scene. In his work, Delbono balances on the border separating public and intimate, autobiographical and universal.

A good postpartum workout plan should start easily and build slowly, after clearance from a doctor, with pelvic tilts a few times per day and kegel exercises. A daily walk is also a good start to a postpartum workout plan, as 150 minutes per week of aerobic exercise is recommended for postpartum women.
Pelvic tilts involve laying on the floor with knees bent, tightening the abdominal muscles and tilting the pelvis up enough to flatten the back against the floor; this position should be held for 10 seconds. Pelvic tilts should be repeated five times at first, slowly working up to 15 to 20 times per day. Kegel exercises can be practiced while going to the bathroom because they exercise the muscles that stop the flow of urine. Kegels can then be practiced anywhere and at any time throughout the day. A slightly more advanced exercise plan includes two sets of 40 leg extensions, leg curls, adductors lying on the back and standing on tip-toe per day; two sets of 20 lunges and adductors lying on the side; two sets of 50 toe-taps; and 50 crunches. Moving on to the next level would include two sets each per day of crunches and crunches with leg lifts, two sets of 15 reverse crunches and two sets of 10 crunches while crossing one leg over the other and turning the torso to one side. A doctor's clearance is especially important before beginning abdominal exercises like crunches. Push ups are easy exercises to tone the arms. Start with a goal of 10 and work up to three sets of 10 per day.

Helen Sullivan and I have recently been working on a dialogue paper based on the work we have been doing around the future of the public service workforce with Graeme Head who is the Public Service Commissioner for the New South Wales Public Service Commission.
This paper appears in the most recent issue of the Australian Journal of Public Administration which, as I have previously described, is now being edited by a collective including myself. The first issue comprises a series of dialogue papers between academics and practitioners on key contemporary themes in public administration.
In this paper we explore the issues of the future public services and the nature of work and consider the implications in terms of the public service workforce. We go on further to offer some sense of where New South Wales is taking aspects of this forward in practice.
If you are interested in the paper it is currently available for free and can be accessed through the following link. We are currently considering how we might take this research agenda forward so if you have any thoughts about gaps or things you would like to see then please get in touch with me.

Tesla Owner in Autopilot Crash Won't Sue, But Car Insurer May
I just saw that too. I'm in the insurance business and got the email from Insurance Business America magazine who picked up the story, mainly because it appears his insurer (Chubb) is considering taking action against Tesla.
a poorly written article, in the first paragraph the driver states that he wasn't paying attention, any lawsuits will be thrown out of court because of that admission.
I haven't seen anything else on this incident, but it kinda sounds to me like maybe he pushed the wheel while stretching over to the glove box and thereby disengaged autopilot?
If he pushed the wheel, the logs will catch it. Either way, it seems the insurer should go after the driver, given he admittedly wasn't paying attention.
lol, the guy was cleaning his dashboard as the car was driving off the road.
This owner violated my "tesla advocate creed". Rule #1. "Do NOT talk to media after AP accident"
I really don't like Dana Hull any longer now that she reports for Doom-berg
She has a lot of disrespect for a noble company in her own back yard
Yes, I realize she needs a paycheck...
I agree, but honestly, does an insurance company ever refuse to cover a damage because of some type of negligence or carelessness? If that was the case, the damages of most accidents would probably fall on an individual.
No, but regardless of how they find fault they still like recovering as much of their money back as possible and I'm not surprised they'd attempt to go after the car maker.
Story is telling. As the guy used the same road every time with 0 problems he was not paying much attention. Isn't this something that could have happened to anyone?
The last paragraph really rubbed me the wrong way... His next car won't be a Tesla? Why???
This yet another example of a driver helplessly turned into a zombie by activating Zombie Mode... er, Autopilot. When that mode is active, the car drives like the undead and is highly contagious. Don't let it infect you too. Two zombies driving simultaneously is not safer than one human driver driving alone.
Huh??? I'm trying to find out if you're trying to be funny, sarcastic, or serious...
That's a bit of a logical fallacy. There's no promise made that AP will behave in the exact same way each time you take a road regardless of circumstances. Every time you decide to not supervise AP closely (e.g. be prepared to take over immediately), you are wagering on a bet that AP will behave correctly on that stretch of road.
I'm not entirely opposed to people taking this kind of risk. But people who do should be adults about it. The correct response is "I took a risk and got burned, and accept responsibility for it".
It's no different than "I never hold my steering wheel when my car is going straight and nothing bad has happened" or "I always play Pokemon Go on this uneventful stretch of my commute in my non-AP car and nothing's ever happened" or "I never bother checking for cross traffic here and have taken this route for 5 years and nothing bad has ever happened"….
We really should consider this feature "driver assist" rather than "auto-pilot." In time, it may become a trustworthy auto-pilot, with more appropriate sensors and software but, as it is now, anyone who uses it in a manner consistent with the term "auto-pilot" is just plain nuts.
I think you're confusing the term autopilot with autonomous.
Auto pilot is a pilot assist feature, and in the original usage it merely kept the plane straight and level - everything else (speed, not running in to things, communication with controllers) was the pilot's job.
It seems like a lot of folks (mostly not pilots?) are expecting a lot more than autopilots have historically delivered. (Some modern systems do more, but it still doesn't replace the pilot - yet.)
I cannot disagree with the meaning of the term "auto-pilot" as not meaning an autonomous controller, as it is used in some drone aircraft. However, the term can be misleading and it seems to me that at least some of the accidents that occurred while driving in AP mode would not have occurred had this feature been named "Driver assist." I am a pilot with two long distance speed records.
The triple negative got me.
At first I was like "yeah, he agrees with me!", then "no wait, whaaaaat?", then "o, ok, yeah!"

Back in Fort Wayne, Indiana, it is a sack of woe.
Back in Fort Wayne, Indiana, it is a sack of woe.
There is a Sam Adams joke in there somewhere....
I recently got a letter at work from a law firm named Low Ball & Lynch!
That rivals the C.A. Butt building on SE Milwaukie.
Here's a funny one. Back in North Dakota there's a law firm named Lies & Bullis. Pretty good down-to-earth lawyers, though.
Please tell me it's served by the South Lake Union Trolley - "Ride the SLUT to Harry Baalls!"
I think they should honor Harry by naming the new City Hall "Berry Halls". It's on Berry Street, after all.
I knew of a slumlord in Boston in the 70s who got rent checks made out to Harry Franks (and no I am not making that up). His tenants sometimes called him hairy hotdogs.
Whoever voted for that name must be nuts.
Harvard University has named Halls and Houses after most of its past presidents, but has, for a similar reason to the one in the story, not got around to honoring former Harvard president Edward Hoare, not even with the innocuous "Hoare Hall."
"At least people are having fun with government"
When will this start to happen in Portlandia?

Who's Who in the World of Super PACs?
Three years ago during the 2008 presidential election, if a political committee wanted to run advertisements telling viewers which candidate to vote for, they would have to collect hundreds of donations of $5,000 or less. Today, a political committee has the power to make one phone call and get an unlimited amount of money from a corporation, union or individual.
Take for example the $2 million donation made on May 27 by DreamWorks Chief Executive Officer Jeffrey Katzenberg to the liberal super PAC Priorities USA Action. Or the $1 million donation made on March 31 by the mysterious corporation F8 LLC in Utah to a Mitt Romney-supporting super PAC called Restore Our Future.
Such large-dollar donations to independent political committees occurred during the 2010 midterm elections, but with the presidential campaign season in full swing expect this giving to ramp up to a whole new level.
Voters will be familiar with the names of many of these news groups by the end of the 2012 election, as they spend millions of dollars on mailings, television and radio advertisements.
These so-called "super PACs" are political committees that raise unlimited amounts of money from corporations, unions and individuals. Unlike traditional PACs, they cannot donate this money directly to candidates. Instead, they may only spend their money on independent expenditures. They may not coordinate with any candidate, and they must disclose their donors.
Super PACs came into existence in the wake of the U.S. Supreme Court's 2010 ruling in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission. (You can read more on Citizens United here.)
Several liberal super PACs were formed earlier this year with the goal of helping Democrats win back the U.S. House of Representatives, maintain the majority in the U.S. Senate and re-elect President Barack Obama in 2012.
According to research by the Center for Responsive Politics, all liberal super PACs have raised a combined $7.61 million during the first half of 2011 — with more than 80 percent of their money coming from 23 donors.
Of the $6.24 million donated by these elite donors:
- 45 percent came from people in the entertainment industry
- 26 percent came from chief executive officers, excluding those from the entertainment industry
- 25 percent came from unions
Meanwhile, conservative super PACs have collected $17.61 million so far — with more than 80 percent of their money coming from 35 donors.
Of the $14.155 million donated by these elite givers:
- 66 percent came from chief executive officers
- 18 percent came from corporate treasuries
- 16 percent came from individuals employed by Bain Capital, the company Romney founded in the 1980s
Several Republican presidential candidates have also seen their supporters organize super PACs.
Some of Romney's former campaign staffers started a super PAC called Restore Our Future.
Meanwhile, Gov. Rick Perry (R-Texas) has seen several super PACs rise up to support his candidacy for president. The following six groups have formed to support him: Americans for Rick Perry, Veterans for Rick Perry, Jobs for Iowa, Jobs for South Carolina, Jobs for Florida and Make Us Great Again.
Recently Americans for Rick Perry and Make Us Great Again decided to combine forces and let Make Us Great Again become the dominant super PAC for Perry.
Supporters of Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) have also launched super PACs to support her candidacy for president: Keep Conservatives United and Citizens for a Working America.
Supporters of Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) recently founded a super PAC called Revolution PAC.
Here is a table of these top super PACs' fund-raising totals during the first half of this year. The totals shown represent all contributions between January 1st and June 30th:
Below, OpenSecrets Blog details the top super PACs of 2011 along with their information about their donors and political ideology.
What? A conservative group founded by several former Mitt Romney aides to help Romney's presidential campaign. The founders include Romney's former general counsel, Charles R. Spies; Carl Forti, political director for Romney's 2008 campaign; and Larry McCarthy, a member of Romney's 2008 media team.
Website: RestoreOurFuture.com
Total Money Raised? $12.2 million
Donors? Many of the donors are CEOs or individuals affiliated with Bain Capital, the company where Romney was the former CEO. Recently the media has focused on W Spann LLC, a company that donated $1 million to the super PAC and then disbanded shortly thereafter. The donor behind the company turned out to be longtime Romney donor and former Bain Capital executive, Edward Conard. There have also been calls by watchdog groups Democracy 21 and Campaign Legal Center to investigate two other companies: Eli Publishing and F8 LLC. These two corporations, which also donated $1 million a piece to Restore Our Future, are reportedly linked to employees of Nu Skin, a skin care company based in Utah.
Donors that Gave $125,000 or More:
What? A conservative group, created, in part, by former Republican National Committee Chairman Ed Gillespie and Karl Rove, a former adviser to President George W. Bush.

It has said it will not be running advertisements targeting Republican presidential candidates.

Donors Who Gave $100,000 or More:
What? This liberal organization will focus on helping the Democrats preserve their majority in the U.S. Senate in 2012. The individuals heading the organization are longtime Reid strategist Rebecca Lambe, Reid's former chief of staff Susan McCue and Democratic operative Craig Varoga.

IN 1899, A BROKEN Alfred Dreyfus accepted a presidential pardon -- and its implication that he had committed treason against France. It was a matter of life or death, for Dreyfus feared that he would not survive the notorious penal colony on Devil's Island, where he had been sent after a military court convicted him of betraying his country. Those who believed that he was innocent and had called for his exoneration were deeply disappointed. "We were prepared to die for Dreyfus," said poet Charles Peguy, "but Dreyfus was not."
His decision to accept a pardon is one of the cornerstones of a long-standing French perception that Dreyfus is the model of a submissive victim. But on the eve of the 100th anniversary of his exoneration in 1906 and the official end of the tumultuous affair that convulsed France for a dozen years, that view may be changing. Indeed, some historians see Dreyfus the patriot, not Dreyfus the victim.
In a new biography, Vincent Duclert contends that Dreyfus was not afraid to stand up for himself. Quite the contrary. He was the "model citizen defending his right to justice," Duclert writes, "and he was the model patriot never doubting the capacity of his country to move toward justice and truth."

They're just wild about Harry
Last week brought news that our own Handel and Haydn Society had announced its next Artistic Director - Harry Christophers (above), a frequent guest conductor of major symphonies around the world and founder of "The Sixteen," a leading British chorus and period instrument orchestra. At last season's performance of Messiah, I noted the following:
". . . somehow British conductor Harry Christophers worked a thrilling alchemy with the H&H singers. I may have never heard a chorus find such a precise match between eloquence and passion - somehow the line between word and song simply melted away under Christophers's direction . . . the Christophers version was something special."
So you can imagine I'm happy. But judge for yourself this weekend, when Christophers will conduct H&H's season opener, "Celebrate Handel!" at Symphony Hall. Remaining tickets are only $25 or less - more information here.

Opinions of Saturday, 25 February 2012
Columnist: Sidibe, Abdul Musah
If you want to know why the acronym NPP should now stand for the New Patapa Party, you only have to observe the party's behaviour last week as President Mills delivered the State of the Nation Address to parliament. The attitude of NPP MPs and their irrational disdain for the President and his office is reminiscent to the racist Republican Congressman who yelled "you lie" as US President Barack Obama was delivering the State of Union Address to congress in 2010. Even in Parliamentary democracies, where the Prime Minister and his government are in close contact with the opposition, deference to the office of national leadership is often the norm. Let alone in our system where the President is a guest of the house. It is also insane and insensitive on the party of the NPP MPs to not only wear black funeral cloth during a parliamentary session, but also wave red cards at a sitting President who was in parliament to conduct his constitutional duty.
It is also important to point out the stupidity in waving red cards to political opponents in parliament. In the first place, the NPP MPs are not the ultimate of judges or juries on who occupies the office of the President, Ghanaians are. And thus far they have not pulled out their yellow cards, let alone red, at the President. The last polls conducted showed the President ahead of NPP's women groping Presidential Candidate, whose vile and personal cranks is enough to make every discerning Ghanaian crunch at the thoughts of him becoming President.
Besides, the lack of self-respect, decorum and their apparent desperation explains a lot about NPP's perception of governance. For them government is not a means to better the lots of Ghanaians. It is for crony-capitalism-a system of rewarding friends and family (Hotel Kufour and Kwanena Bartels). Political power for the NPP is for bribing and intimidating state officials and for exporting narcotic drugs (Amoateng and others). For them power is also a means of exporting international prostitutes disguised as economic advisors (Gizelle Yetzy) and selling important national assets to foreign entities at cheaper price and taking kick backs from them.
For fours the NPP did not have the benefit of these power largesse, hence their insane desperation for power and war drumming. They cast the Dec 2012 election as a do or die affair for their party. They must win at all cost, even if the national security interest of the country is put in jeopardy. In fact they have already declared themselves winners even before the first ballot is cast in the box. They will use intimidation tactics and they will accuse their opponents of fraud even if they are the ones committing election fraud. It is all-die-be-die for these people. They are power drunk.
President Mills should heed the advice in Machiavelli's Prince during and after the December polls or he will go down in history as the weakest President to be ever elected. He should not be afraid to use his powers under the constitution against any national security threats to the country. He should endeavor to the "prince" and not the "priest." Politics is not the management of church affairs. The President should not sit side and allow the NPP to micro manage and control the Electoral Commission. The red card shown the President is an eye opener and a wake up call to the NDC and its candidates. The NPP wants to be the opposition team and the referee in the same game and at the same time. In most every fair play game, this will be inconceivable. But we are not playing under the FIFA football rules of fair play. For the NPP they must win at all cost. It is about the NDC and the President realizes these obvious facts and take immediate steps to challenge the crony capitalist who are bent on erecting the for sell sign on Ghana. Finally, he should be prepared order the arrest of anyone be they NPP or NDC, who tries to use the tense period to destabilize the country. I rest my case.

Former Secretary of State Colin Powell says illegal immigrants do essential work in the U.S. and that he has firsthand knowledge of that — because they fix his house.
A moderate Republican, Powell urged his party on Sunday to support immigration generally because those who come from abroad are, in his words, "what's keeping this country's lifeblood moving forward."
Powell said a path to legal status should be offered to illegal immigrants because they do work that needs to get done.
At his own house, he said on NBC's "Meet the Press," illegal immigrants are always around when he needs work done.
He did not specify whether he hired them directly or they showed up with contractors.

Thought I'd share this essay from Immortal Technique (from Davey D's website), on Haiti's history and present day context. It synthesizes the history and offers some interesting analysis – really worth the full read. What a line:
"The mythology of racial superiority began to take the shape of an ancient death mask from classical antiquity."
Case #19098 of why we must be above black vs. brown hate:
"They (the French) created virtual new age "foederati" for their designs by ripping a subsection out of the very people they sought to subjugate. In return for cooperation, the French promised the desperate "Mulattos" more rights and more privileges in what they painted as a new Saint Domingue."
I shouldn't take quotes out of context for that might misrepresent. Read the whole thing. But first, a meditation on non-violent vs. violent resistance:
"As a matter of fact, if Ghandi's tactics had been used in the American Revolution, wouldn't he have been lying in a ditch in Virginia some 234 years ago? Without the purchased attention of a global media outlet is shaming the world even possible? And even if we managed to procure one, how could a profit margin be replaced by a soul, when that's the one thing that a multi-national news corporation will never have?…
…I believe a balance is always necessary, and that might never makes right. It just makes right now."
Then, peep this these 360 degree views of Port-Au-Prince. Voyeuristic madness.

Boy, did this piece in Slate Magazine strike a cord. For all you 'Jersey Shore' devotees – it's not a joke – this is a lifestyle. I wouldn't say it's EVERYWHERE on the island – but definitely a certain part of the island.
No wonder I used to sneak off to Manhattan in High School. Though, can't front, all the girls were jealous about my tan + I may or may not have dated a 'guido' (def did not fist pump) – haha.
In all seriousness – this is NOT SI's main cultural export, maybe the most exploitable for entertainment based on ignorance. Staten Island is NYC's greenest boro, with parks, museums, a chinese scholar garden (only one on the east coast), a ZOO, beaches (water safety? questionable), WU-TANG, really good pizza and home to people with strong senses of family. Sure, it's infected with stripmalls and tanning salons the more South you go…but when my parents could afford to live on SI, they jetted from the concrete (and risky) jungle of Queens for their version of something better for us. SI has it's fair share of NYC grit too.
So, thanks folks. I don't hate where I'm from. I feel blessed. Now on to some other shitty youth culture, MTV. Not that you have the same influence you once did…but that's a whole 'nother subject.

Looking forward to this book from Isobel Coleman (Read her recent essay, 'The Better Half') – Paradise Beneath Her Feet: How Women are Transforming the Middle East. Comes out in April, 2010.
"Dr. Coleman is currently working on her latest book, which examines the role of women in bringing reform to the Muslim world. Paradise Beneath Her Feet: Women and Reform in the Middle East (Random House) looks at women across five countries — Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Iran, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. This strategic crescent contains more than 300 million people, nearly fifty percent of the world's known oil reserves, two active wars, an unstable nuclear power and an aspiring one, and the heart of both Sunni and Shia Islam. It is in this volatile corner of the globe that the world's future stability is likely to rest. The role of women is central to determining whether these deeply religious, conservative societies can make the transition to functioning democracies with modern economies, or whether they will remain in the grip of religious extremists. Dr. Coleman focuses on those men and women working within an Islamic framework to promote social change."

Melon & Apple Granita
Recipe Information
Total Time:4 1/2 hours (including freezing time)
Servings:8 servings, about 3/4 cup granita plus 1/4 cup fruit each
This granita uses sweet ripe melon, apple juice instead of sugar and a touch of lime juice to perk up the flavors. Berries look beautiful on top; or if you can find fresh figs, add them. For a vibrant look, make with an orange-fleshed melon, such as cantaloupe, Charentais or orange honeydew.
- 4 cups cubed ripe melon
- 1 cup unsweetened apple juice
- 1/4 cup lime juice
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- Fresh mint leaves, for garnish
- Combine melon, apple juice and lime juice in a blender; puree until smooth. Pour the mixture into a 9-by-13-inch glass or metal pan.
- Place the pan on a level surface in your freezer. Freeze, stirring and scraping with a fork every 30 minutes, moving the frozen edges in toward the slushy center and crushing any lumps, until the granita is firm but not frozen solid, 3 to 4 hours.
- Remove from the freezer; use a metal spatula or large spoon to break up the frozen ice into small slivers. Pack into an airtight plastic container and freeze for at least 1 hour more.
- Remove from the freezer about 20 minutes before serving to soften slightly. Use a wide spoon or ice cream scoop to scrape the granita into shallow bowls. Sprinkle blueberries and raspberries over each portion and garnish with mint leaves, if desired.

'Dreams and Wishes' charity pays a festive Whitehall visit to Gwydyr House
Wales Office Minister David Jones and some of the children on a Whitehall visit with Dreams and Wishes charity help decorate the tree at Gwydyr…
Wales Office Minister David Jones and some of the children on a Whitehall visit with Dreams and Wishes charity help decorate the tree at Gwydyr House
Brave youngsters from South Wales today, Thursday 15 December, enjoyed an early festive treat with a tea party hosted by Wales Office Minister David Jones whilst on an annual Christmas visit to Whitehall.
'Dreams and Wishes' enjoyed a unique trek to London accompanied by a mixture of Queen's Dragoon Guards, Welsh Guards and Royal Welch Regiment - all in full ceremonial reds. The group were escorted to Big Ben, Speaker's House and No 10, followed by a traditional visit to Gwydyr House for afternoon tea, where they were welcomed by the Minister.
Mr Jones said: "It is an absolute pleasure to meet these brave youngsters and put on a special tea party for them at the end of a thrilling and fun-packed day out in Whitehall. Under the leadership of Tony Curtis, Dreams and Wishes provides youngsters undergoing often gruelling and difficult illnesses with opportunities to celebrate and enjoy a range of magical experiences.
"I hope the youngsters and their families will cherish the memories they have from today. The visits by Dreams and Wishes never fail to kick off the festive spirit at the Wales Office and it was wonderful to be able to wish the children and their families a very happy Christmas."
Tony Curtis MBE, Chairman of Dreams & Wishes said: "The children and the families look forward to their day out in London so much, spending so much time in hospital and on treatment and this is a well deserved rest. My belief is that life is about special memories and the Wales Office in London, with all the team, helps us create memories that last a lifetime. These special children need treats, I am sure the day will bring many smiles.
"The Wales Office has always given us a wonderful welcome and tremendous support and I personally would like to thank everyone at there for their help."
Notes for editors:
- The Dreams and Wishes Charity has been set up to help seriously and terminally ill children and families during the difficult and financially challenging period of a child's illness.
- The charity can help with fuel costs to take their child to and from hospital, specialist beds or specialist wheelchairs and even heating costs.
- Dreams and Wishes also creates special memories for many families and works closely with families and their social workers to create bespoke memories to fulfil the wishes of the children - meeting celebrities, sending families on holidays and creating magical days out.

As the latest Xbox Live update begins rolling out today (23 October) Microsoft's director of programming Larry Hyrb has revealed several new features for the Windows 8 Xbox service, which is due to launch on 26 October.
Writing on his blog, Hyrb explained how Xbox will "light up" Windows PCs and tablets:
"With the launch of Xbox on Windows 8 on October 26, we are launching Microsoft's premier entertainment service. This is the year Xbox will light up entertainment on your Windows 8 tablet or PC. We want to make Windows the best place for gaming, the best video experience bar none, and combine all the elements people love about music into one service."
Hyrb continued, outlining the new Xbox Games, Music and Video Services, as well as SmartGlass, which allows users to control their Xbox console using a Surface tablet or Windows Phone 8 smartphone:
"Xbox Games for Windows 8 will bring many of the games you already know and love, like Angry Birds Starwars, Jetpack Joyride, Fruit Ninja and more. These games will be playable on any Windows 8 PC, laptop or tablet.
"Xbox Music is a brand-new service, built from the ground up, to meet all your music needs across your tablet, PC, Phone and TV.
"Xbox Video is a first run video service offering tens of thousands of movies and TV shows for buying or renting in HD.
"When the Xbox SmartGlass app launches on tablets, PCs and smartphones, it will include key foundational experiences for interacting with your Xbox 360, such as dashboard and app navigation and Internet Explorer control, like text input, scrolling and pinch and zoom."
Games already confirmed to support SmartGlass include Forza Horizon and Halo Waypoint.
According to The Verge, Microsoft is planning to drastically lower Xbox and Kinect prices at various stores across the US, to coincide with Windows 8. A 250GB 360 console is rumoured to cost as little as $99 (£60) for a limited time.
A similar scheme was introduced in July 2012, when the Xbox 360 was available at official Microsoft stores for $99, as long as buyers also purchased a two year Xbox Live subscription at $15 a month.
Whether a similar offer will be available in the UK is yet to be revealed.

Check out her interview…
Name: Melissa R. Hibbert
Location: Beverly Hills, CA
Title: Celebrity Makeup Artist & Beauty Entrepreneur
Business Name: Beauty by Melissa Hibbert and SHEEQ Cosmetics
Years in Business: 4 years
Are you a full or part time business owner?
I am a fulltime business owner
Why did you start your business?
Beauty is my passion. I worked in Corporate Marketing for 14 years and I was, by all accounts successful, but my true calling is running a thriving business in Beauty.
What has been the most rewarding aspect of having your own business?
The most rewarding aspect of having my own business is never having to wait for permission to do things I want to do and bring my ideas to life. I have the freedom to create and maximize my full potential with no limitations. That is the beauty of having my own business!
What are your biggest challenges?
The biggest challenges are wearing many hats and making sure things are balanced and not vulnerable due to being spread too thin. The other challenge is ensuring that you are accountable for not only the brand but the spending – it's easy to want to participate, sponsor, do events, donate etc., but I have learned to say No, and be comfortable with those decisions. Not everyone will understand your business strategy, so it's important to have a sense of discernment in all aspects of my business.
What is the best business advice you've ever received?
The best advice I've received is to never sell myself short…to know that my time, skills, ideas, creativity etc., all have value and worth.
Do you have a team or are you a one man/woman show?
I do have a go to team. These are people that I trust and I find to be reliable when I need them. When I first started, I was a one woman show but over time, I have been much more open to delegate responsibilities and trust that they will be executed to my standard.
Where do you see your biz in the next 5 years?
Overall, in 5 years, I see myself leading my thriving Beauty empire that encompasses my cosmetics line, web & television content, publications, events and management firm all of which will empower, entertain, and inspire others through Beauty.
What advice would you give to other Moguls in the Making?
My advice to Moguls in the Making is to believe 100% in yourself and to never be afraid to shine. There is a purpose and calling on all of our lives and in order to thrive and succeed, it will require all of us to let our light shine bright and to be excellent in each and every endeavor. When we shine, we give others permission to do the same.

National Australia Bank has valued its Clydesdale subsidiary at between £1.54bn and £2.07bn, according to an IPO document.
NAB today set share prices for CYBG, Clydesdale's holding company, at between 175p and 235p.
The bank wants to sell 25 per cent of CYBG to investors in an IPO on the London Stock Exchange from 2 February, while selling the rest to NAB shareholders.
However, NAB says it is still deciding whether to float less of CYBG and keep some shares or else pull the IPO altogether.
NAB bought Clydesdale in 1987.

A custom Ford GT has managed to hit 283.232 mph (455.82 km/h) in a standing mile at Florida's Kennedy Space Center on NASA's Shuttle Landing Facility runway. Created by Performance Power Racing, this heavily modified street-legal Ford GT features two turbos and various components made from "pandalloy". This is an aerospace aluminum alloy developed in collaboration with Pratt & Whitney which is perfect for racing applications thanks to characteristics like reduced weight, high strength and temperature resistance. Pumping out 1,700 hp (1267 kW), this Ford GT has set the Guinness World Record for top speed in a street-legal car by reaching a Tag Heuer-measured 283.232 mph in 5,280 feet (1,609 meters).

2013 Audi Q5 tuned by ABT
ABT Sportsline is now offering an upgrade kit for the facelifted 2013 Audi Q5, including power boost for two diesel engines. In its standard configuration, the 2.0-liter turbodiesel engine produces 177 HP (130 kW) and 280 lb-ft (380 Nm), while after ABT's intervention it develops 205 HP (151 kW) and 309 lb-ft (420 Nm) of torque. They also worked on the 3.0-liter TDI which can pump out 282 HP (207 kW) and 464 lb-ft (630 Nm), up from the standard 245 HP (176 kW) and 428 lb-ft (580 Nm). Aside from the power hike, ABT is also offering a new exhaust system with two double pipes, as well as various wheel designs ranging from 20 to 22 inches. The tuner has updated the SUV's front grille and installed fender extensions. Other modifications were performed on the door strip attachments, rear skirt set and rear wing. As a final touch, the Audi Q5 has been lowered by approximately 30mm after installing ABT's suspension springs.
Hamann memoR
Hamann's McLaren MP4-12C based memoR has been given the art car treatment to make "grass-green Porsches, neon yellow Lamborghinis and even luminous red Ferraris" fade into the background. Described as "magnificent haute couture," the multi-colored model has an aerodynamic body kit that draws inspiration from the McLaren F1. It features a new front bumper with LED daytime running lights, a front splitter and a roof-mounted air intake. There's also revised side skirts, an extended diffuser, a prominent rear wing and 21-inch aluminum wheels. The styling kit is priced from €95,000 ($123,225) which sounds pretty expensive since it doesn't appear to include any performance upgrades. However, customers can order a bespoke interior with everything from Alcantara upholstery to wood trim.
Mazda3 MPS by MR Car Design
Thursday, November 1, 2012
Erftstadt-based tuner MR Car Design has developed a tuning program for the Mazda3 MPS. The standard version comes with a 2.3-liter turbo engine developing 260 hp (191 kW) and 280 lb-ft (380 Nm) of torque at 3,000 rpm, but after the tuner worked its software magic it now outputs 310 hp (231 kW). The 50 hp (37 kW) power increase is available for 699 euros. MR Car Design is also offering a downpipe with or without catalytic convertor, along with a cat-back exhaust system. A KW coilover suspension and Qxigin 14-inch alloys are part of the package, plus a Forge Intercooler including all turbo hoses.
Fiat Panda by Novitec
Italian tuner Novitec has prepared an upgrade program for the latest Fiat Panda. A front spoiler attached to the production fascia is available for 184 euros, while the rear spoiler costs 150 euros. Stock wheels can be replaced by custom 7.5Jx17 N10 alloys available in matt-black or silver polished finish with 215/35 R17 tires. The entire set with tires costs 1,106 euros or you can get just the wheels for 159 euros each. The tuner provides a coilover suspension that lowers the Panda's ride height between 30 and 80 millimeters. Also available are sport springs that lower the vehicle by 35 mm. A Novitec PowerJet 2 auxiliary control unit for the 2-cylinder TwinAir gasoline engine lifts output to 99 hp (73 kW), enabling the car to perform the 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) sprint in 10.1 seconds and hit a top speed of 117 mph (188 km/h).

Dunkin' Donuts will retire its spokesman-who muttered "Time to make the doughnuts" through 15 years of commercials -from the chain's advertising.
Dunkin's expansion into new food categories called for something more than a doughnut man to star in its advertising, the marketer said.
Created by Ron Berger and Barry Vetere while at Ally & Gargano, Fred was appealing because "everyone who works for a living can relate" to him, said Mr. Berger, now partner and creative director at Dunkin' agency Messner Vetere Berger McNamee Schmetterer/Euro RSCG, New York.
However, "Dunkin' Donuts as a brand is evolving from a product point of view," Mr. Berger said. "Fred symbolized the doughnut man. The brand has evolved into flavored coffees and bagels and danish. We're looking for more interesting ways to represent what the brand is today as we move forward."
Edward Binder, Dunkin' Donuts VP-marketing, said expansion has been mandated by increased competition from bagel and coffee chains.
"Business was increasing at a decreasing rate," Mr. Binder said. "Over the last couple of years, we've made a huge transition in the base brand positioning of our business from 'America's favorite doughnut shop' to 'America's neighborhood coffee shop.' "
Dunkin' started easing out Fred, who is portrayed by actor Michael Vale, earlier this month with a $1.5 million teaser campaign from Messner Vetere, in which Bob Dole, Mary Lou Retton, Larry Bird and Sugar Ray Leonard gave him advice on about retirement.
Dunkin' is now spending $630,000 on two 30-second transition spots. One began running Sept. 17, with Fred announcing his retirement to a swarm of reporters. The other spot, called "Tribute," breaks tonight and features the personalities from the teasers congratulating Fred on his retirement.
The first advertising without Fred, due out next month, "will retain the message of great quality products, but we're going to turn the camera around and tell stories about how the brand fits into our customer's lives," Mr. Binder said.

Business Relations
The HVNA has a long history of supporting small, local entrepreneurial businesses in Hayes Valley, and a large percentage of HVNA members are businesses and other organizations, including non-profits. Historically, small local business has played an enormous role in the revitalization of the neighborhood. It is important to the HVNA that the unique commercial and cultural character of Hayes Valley as a good place for small local entrepreneurs be nurtured and encouraged. Shopping locally helps maintain Hayes Valley's one-of-a-kind small businesses and encourages the diversity of San Francisco's workforce. The BR Committee was successfully involved in the recent debate over formula retail in San Francisco and the overall plan recently adopted reflects most of our concerns.
The Business Relations Committee aids our local business and organizational members by supporting them in their various permit and application processes with city government, and by encouraging patronage and awareness of local business and institutional members.
Business and organizational members are listed in every bi-monthly issue of the Hayes Valley Voice and the Hayes Valley Flyer. In addition, twice yearly, all business and institutional members are listed in a special four-page insert to the Voice with a description of the business and contact information. This list, with links, also appears on the HVNA website.
We generally maintain contact with and seek input from our business and institutional members, and monitor business trends in the neighborhood and how these are impacted by other aspects of neighborhood life; we actively look for ways to aid our valued small business and organizational members. Working with the Public Safety Committee, we prepared a flyer on public safety issues for businesses in Hayes Valley
Goals for the near future include encouraging local businesses to hire neighborhood youth for temporary jobs and internships, and encouraging more neighborhood-serving businesses, such as hardware stores, shoe repair shops, laundromats and others, to locate in the many new retail locations opening in Hayes Valley.
The Business Relations Committee meets on an as-needed basis depending on current issues. Feel free to contact us if you would like to get involved!

The events that took place on September 11, 2001 were the most important of our generation. Possibly the most important of our lifetimes and certainly the since the bombing of Pearl Harbour and the Second World War.
But they will definitely not be the Crime of the Century. There is much more to come, although hopefully not in my lifetime.
For over a decade we have been told on every news program, every radio bulletin, in speeches, statements & announcements, front page stories, magazine articles, Government policy announcements and by every government official throughout the West; that the world has changed. And we have to react with it.
We are told that 9/11 has changed the course of our domestic and foreign policy. (It certainly has) Our civil liberties must be amended with the changing times.
Those responsible and their allies must be hunted down and punished, however loosely connected they are, regardless of the cost, either in human or financial measure.
The event must not be forgotten. It should dominate debate, both public and private. We must reconfigure, adapt, refocus, reprioritise and come together as one, with our allies, to defend our freedoms and liberties.
And we should do everything we can to make sure it never happens again. And that means we must rely on the elected policy makers, who are advised by experts with minds immeasurably greater than ours. And then do as we are told and pay for it.
Some of this, of course, is true. We do face a great threat from Islam and some of its followers. Well, millions of its followers actually. Let there be no misunderstanding here that some of them intend to destroy us.
They love death more than we love life and they will keep coming at us. Wave after wave, generation after generation and each finding new and darker ways of reaching us.
We must accept that if the good guys are becoming more and more clever, and advanced, in their ways of protecting us, then the dark side is moving just as cleverly in the other direction.
And never was this more obvious (at the time) than on the morning of September 11, 2001. It was a statement of intent. This is how much respect we have for you. This is how much we hate you.
It was so extraordinary that we have to wonder what on earth we have done, by way of Foreign Policy since the Second World War, to make them hate us that much. So passionately.
Who has such hate? Have we made mistakes? What are they? Have we been doing things deliberately? Then why?
The obvious way to try and understand this is to begin with an investigation of the 9/11 attacks and try to find out how a bearded caveman was able to strike at the heart of the world's military superpower.
Really, how does a projectile manage to hit the Pentagon in Washington DC? How can that even happen, never mind New York for the moment. How do Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble manage to pull that off?
We all expected to find the 9/11 Commission's Official Report to answer some, if not all, of these questions.
For any serious, detailed, forensic and independent investigation into the attacks would reveal who the actual forces behind the conception, planning, and execution of this seminal event were.
It would prove conclusively that dirty, scruffy, bearded Islamic extremists living in a cave in Afghanistan planned it all. And then pulled it off.
However, as we know, unless you have been living in a cave yourself, the commission report raised more questions than it gave answers to.
In a speech in San Francisco on April 19, 2002, the Director of the FBI, Robert Mueller, said that, 'During our investigation we have not uncovered a single piece of paper, either here in the United States or in the treasure trove of information that has turned up in Afghanistan and elsewhere, that mentioned any aspect of the September 11 plot.'
There was an element of surprise in Mueller's voice because he, like so many of us, had up until that point assumed, as self-evident truth, that the given narrative of nineteen Arab hijackers, employed by Osama bin Laden, were responsible for the whole thing.
Such a complex and well coordinated crime would have left a paper trail from here to Timbuktu and provide a mountain of evidence for investigators to climb up. But there was nothing.
In fact, the FBI's page on bin Laden in their 'Most Wanted Terrorist' section does not even include 9/11 among his crimes.
When asked why an FBI spokesman revealed, 'because their is no hard evidence connecting bin Laden to 9/11.'
And the reason for that should be so easy enough to figure out that I dare not patronise you by reinforcing it here. So the conspiracy theorists (and I am not one) all pointed to the American Government instead and a self-inflicted False Flag operation.
Without much thought and with little evidence George Bush's administration came under suspicion. It is a hard to understand why. For a start, what real reason would they have?
And before you point to oil then remember that all Western nations, including America, have managed to trade oil with Arab nations quite nicely for nearly a century. Why invade them?
Regime change? Ok, that's a fair point but why attack themselves first? Besides, George Bush's administration were too stupid for that and no U.S. Government has been to keep secrets successfully. Look at Kennedy. Look at Nixon and Watergate.
Bill Clinton's administration could not even keep the whereabouts and activity of his penis a secret.
So you point to the media and an orchestrated cover up. Ok perhaps, to a point, some media outlets are controlled by wealthy paymasters who 'direct news.' But all of them? Are we to assume they are ALL in on it, every one of them, whatever 'it' is?
And that whilst Bill Clinton's penis is fair game for the Free Press, thousands dead on 9/11, and hundreds of thousand more during the aftermath that continues today, is not fair game?
The problem with any investigation of this nature is not only the time that has passed and the evidence that has distorted, but it is a problem that the perpetrators themselves failed to see coming. The internet.
You see, in 2001 the internet was still an infant. Some would argue that is still is, but growing fast.
In 2001 there was no youtube so that amateur (or professional) investigators could pour over every image and film footage with ever more sophisticated software programs.
In 2001 we were used to seeing a couple of days of footage and news reporting and then it largely moved on. Something else happened.
Then, apart from the odd documentary, which could only use controlled footage, that was the end of that. Imagine if we had the internet at the time of JFK's assassination. Or that everybody in the crowd had a movie camera on his or her phone.
Or that every soldier in Vietnam had an iPhone and Facebook accounts. Or that youtube existed during Apartheid in South Africa. How different the world would be.
But, some people did have cameras on their phones on 9/11 in 2001. Enough people to provide credible evidence of advanced knowledge of the attacks.
How many of you have see that mobile phone footage of nothing but blue sky way off to the right of the Twin Towers.
And then, all of a sudden, a black or dark grey plane swings into shot and is followed to its target.
The other Twin Tower was already burning at the time. Who in the world is standing and watching what was thought to be a bomb, at that particular moment, in the World Trade Center which is billowing with thick smoke, but is holding his, or her, camera way off to the right hand side and into the far distance.
Who does that? Somebody who was expecting something else, that's who.
There are certainly some crazy conspiracy theories going around the world connected to 9/11, but none more crazy or conspiratorial that the official account. That's the real conspiracy theory.
So, using the Occam's Razor principle, let's shave away the crazy, the improbable, the internet conspiracies, the truthers, the ranters and the ravers and consider only what we actually know to be true.
And only then try to make sense of their relevance. As Sherlock Holmes himself famously said, 'Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth.'
Or was that Sir Arthur Conan Doyle?

A household argument in the 200 block of Banks Street Tuesday afternoon escalated, resulting in the arrest of a woman, said Waycross police.
Police Capt. Benji Hersey said that Jamonda Faison, 23. 205 Banks St., was taken into custody in the yard of the residence at 2015 Banks St. at about 3:10 p.m. Tuesday. As officers arrived, Hersey reported, they saw Faison pointing a handgun at a man who was inside the house.
Hersey said they had been called by the man who reported that he and Faison had argued and that she had taken a hammer and tried to attack him with it. He said he was able to wrest it away from her and throw it into the yard.
The man said Faison then took a gun from a cabinet drawer and that he was able to wrestle the pistol away from her as well. He tossed the gun into the yard too, Hersey said, adding that Faison left the house to retrieve the gun and the hammer.
"The officers were able to arrest her," Hersey said. "She and the complainant reside at the house. There were two young children who witnessed this, a 1-year-old and a 2-year-old."
Because the violence occurred in the the presence of the children, Faison was charged with cruelty to children, Hersey said.
Charges included battery (family violence), terrorism (family violence) and two counts of cruelty to a child (family violence), he said.
Faison was in the Ware County jail, he said.

Americans have a love of cars, so much so that there are 1.17 cars per licensed driver in this country. To talk to most people, a car is an absolute necessity, ranked right up there with food and shelter. To suggest that people go without a car is to incur some strange looks, laughter or outright scorn. Certainly cars are convenient and in some areas and for some jobs they are a necessity. But in more and more places it is becoming possible to live without a car and it's an option you might want to consider, given the expense of owning a car.
Cars eat money. Not only do you have to buy the thing, there is insurance, gas, maintenance and repairs, parking fees (in some areas), taxes, and tag fees to consider. Not to mention that a car is a depreciating asset that will never earn you any money when you sell it. Cars also cause a lot of stress. There's stress when they break down and leave you stuck in the middle of nowhere. There's stress when you have to sit in traffic with nothing to do. There's stress when you have to find the money for a repair. There's stress when someone hits you (or vice versa) and you have to deal with the headaches. If you're ready to chuck all the headaches and stop wasting money, here are some ideas:
Use public transportation: This is the most obvious way to do without a car. Buses, taxis, trains, van pools, and subways make it possible to get around without a car. Yes, you are subject to their schedule, but if you end up stuck in traffic you can read or work without worrying about hitting someone.
Rent when you need it: If you only need a car to get to far away places, you can simply rent a car for the days you need. Several rental agencies will now come out and pick you up and deliver you to the rental shop, eliminating the worry about how you will get the car.
Walk or bike: Using a bike or your feet kills two birds with one stone. It gets you where you need to go and you get your exercise in the process. You can also look into small scooters. While regulations vary, most can be used for in-town errands (if not on the highway) and carry much lower insurance, gas, and tag/tax costs than cars.
Carpool: If you want to reduce your car use, get into a carpool. You might only have to use your car one day a week when it's your turn to drive. If you don't have a car, you can still get into a carpool, just offer to contribute extra for gas or buy lunch for the drivers since you won't be reciprocating by driving.
Car sharing: There are two approaches to car sharing. In many major cities there are programs where you can simply pick up a car from a designated lot, drive it for a couple of hours and then return it to another designated lot. You sign up ahead of time with the agency running the program and then you are allowed access to their cars. It's much simpler than renting from a major agency and more cost effective. The other approach is to organize a car share amongst your friends, roommates, or neighbors. You can split the costs of the car among you and work out a schedule for who gets the car when.
Work from home and shop online: If you can find a job that allows you to work from home, you can get by without a car even if you don't live in an area with great mass transit. Since you can do most of your shopping online, you can rent or borrow a car when you need it, or take care of things while you're out with friends.
Make do with one car instead of two (or three) If you just can't imagine life without a car, try getting by with just one. Sell the extras and figure out how to plan your life so you can get by with one car. It is possible, if you are willing to cut down on unnecessary trips and plan ahead.
I should note that these ideas can work for someone in a rural area, as well. I live in a rural area that's about an hour from the city. We manage to get by with one car. I work from home most of the time, so I don't need one during the day. My husband takes the car to his office. Occasionally I will ride with him and get dropped off if I have business in town that will take all day. If I have errands to run, I wait until the evening or the weekend, or ask my husband to pick things up on the way home. I can do most of my shopping online and have it delivered. If friends want to go out during the day, they know they'll have to drive and that I will reciprocate on weekend or evening outings.
Doing without a car in a rural area does require some planning. For example, I try to schedule things like doctor's appointments for the same day in complexes that are close to each other. That way I can be dropped off in town and make the rounds on foot or with a cab. For things that are further away or that can't be combined on the same day, I try to plan ahead and just rent a car for a couple of days.
Cars may provide you with some freedom but that freedom comes with a big price tag. If you want to cut your expenses, go without a car entirely or, if you're currently a two car (or more) household, sell the extras and get by with one. You'll save money and mental stress.
