Private Lives and Public Responses: Lone Parenthood and Future Policy
The rise in lone parenthood has been one of the most striking demographic and social trends of the last 25 years. In Private Lives and Public Responses, the leading experts on the subject -academics, researchers, policians, civil servants and representatives from lone parent organisations - assess the policy dilemmas posed by the unprecedented growth in levels of lone parenthood in the UK.
The book begins with an assessment of current policy and an analysis of the reality of life for the 4.6 million people living in lone parent families in the UK today. It looks at society's attitudes towards lone parents and the perceived 'negative' and 'positive' aspects of lone parenthood; gives a historical perspective to the trends; identifies the similarities and differences between 'solo' and separated' parents; analyses the dynamics for family change; and much more. The contributors then go on to look at the policy issues surrounding lone parenthood, including its impact on access to education and employment prospects; childcare, income, debt and the role of Family Credit; and the impact of the Child Support Agency. The last chapter of the book draws out clear recommendations for future policy development.
Private Lives and Public Responses draws on a large body of research funded by the Joseph Rowntree Foundation, the Department of Social Security, the ESRC and others to provide an invaluable guide to the debates surrounding policy towards lone parents. It will prove invaluable reading for all policy-makers and academics involved in these issues.ISBN: 0 85374 736 9

"Get Ahead" stays in front of the R& B pack
cssuperstar2003 | Wilmington, NC USA | 05/27/2003
(4 out of 5 stars)
"By C.S.
Blue- eyed soul from the U.K.has always recieved lukewarm reviews in North America at best yet the public at large has been tortured by relentless airplay from the Michael Bolton's of the world.
While Breathe, Simply Red, Level 42, George Michael,and the acid jazz / old school 70's disco R& B of Jamiroquai have all had a measure of Stateside success,countless talented others like Go West and London's Curiosity Killed the Cat found difficulty in penetrating the North American markets though Go West had success when "The King of Wishful Thinking" was a hit off the heels of the 1990 box office smash "Pretty Woman" soundtrack.
The former only released two albums the first being " Keep Your Distance" and the second " Get Ahead"
This CD is a power- packed collection of live sounding funk with craftily arranged synth work and efficient not overworked horn sections that have been a predictable Achille's Heel of Jamiroquai's work.
"Get Ahead" is a hybrid of Curiosity with a touch of Level 42 elements neatly wrapped around Ben Volpierre's succintly laid back monotone cabaret style vocals.
There are a few gaps on the record but compared to many of today's offerings and Curiosity's spotty results on "Keep Your Distance", this 1989 release has some strong tracks that make it a solid effort.
The gaps? "Trees Dont Grow on Money and "Go Go Ahead" leave a bit to be desired and "Security Lady" is a bit iffy(listen for yourself I could be wrong) therefore "Brit Funk does have it's occasional pitfalls.
The gems? The record rolls out like a carpet on "Name and Number" then quickly shifts into second on the following track "Do Your Believing", arguably the best track on the CD. The drumming is solid and the bass line and synth arrangement work well in harmony making it a song representative of what funk sholud be- LIVE AND AMBIENT. "Cascade" highlights itself with a high- pitched slap bass bridge reminiscent of Mark King's exploits in Level 42 or a Marcus Miller fusion approach.
What makes for a great album is when one can have a healthy debate over which song is the best and when you have more than a few that you can make a case for.The follow up track "First Place" is a well-written power ballad accentuated with a first class arrangement where the song goes from a canter to a nice steady gallop, picking up in tempo that adds a powerful punch with skilled finesse and power drumming adds the live element that is lacking in today's stagnated and watered down machine driven R&B.
Here you get an balanced attack as is the case on the back-side of the album on the killer track " So Well" with the punchy hornsthat come from out of nowhere on occasion layered on silky smooth synths and a rolling bass- line similar to John Taylor's work w / Duran 2. But there's more punch and prominence in sync with the drumming. A very classy track that can be sprung on the unaware victim who becomes intrigued by the musicianship that they are un-accustomed to hearing on pop radio in this millinieum
"Something New,Something Blue" like " First Place" qualifies for nice candlelight music status and serves as a pre-lude to the band picking up the tempo on the dance track "Keep on Trying" where Volpierre 's point of emphasis is the line "you know my work is therapeutic".
Indeed. "Get Ahead" isn't what "St. Pepper" was to the Beatles or what "Physical Graffiti" was to Led Zeppelin or any other landmark album in music history, but it foes offer a textbook on how well crafted funk can be both timeless and enjoyable.
Therefore it is a nice surprise attack CD to own. It will beg some to ask the (?) queation how come this record wasnt a hit and why did they stop recording?
Again many LP's with weak tracks suffer and make for a poor album. But with " Get Ahead" there are few gaps and the ones that do exist are well comphensated by the firepower of the strong tracks here, making it a admirable effort and certainly worth a music lover's time and money to invest in. If you like 80's and / or 90's fumk and groups of the like be it Level 42 or Jamiroquai or 70's icons like Heatwave, Slave, Commomdores, Cameo, Switch, Gap Band,etc then you will like this. But the encouraging aspect to "Get Ahead" is that it is a record that can even raise the eyebrow of he most skeptical NON-FAN of R&B dance music. Solid CD ! C.S. 5-27- 03"

Occasionally, interview questions can take you by surprise. I remember being startled by an unexpected query at the end of a congenial but rigorous hour-long conversation with three faculty members. Ironically, given that I was about to earn a Ph.D. in English, I hadn't anticipated being asked: "What are you reading for pleasure?"
In the final throes of writing my dissertation, I had a mad moment of outrage. Pleasure! Pleasure? I felt I'd been reading footnotes, meticulous graduate college requirements for margin widths, and dusty, crumbling Victorian magazines since the beginning of time. Of course that wasn't the case. In fact, I had just finished Margaret Atwood's riveting dystopia The Handmaid's Tale. A few years after it won a slew of awards, the novel had finally risen to the top of the ever-changing heap of magazines and books always teetering by my bedside.
Hesitantly, I mentioned the title to the search committee, noting that I had been wondering how I might someday teach the novel in a women's literature course. The novel was not "in my field" nor was it at that cutting edge of competitive conversation, literature department style, that is just before it everyone learns about a new book when it is reviewed in the Times Book Review (New York or London). In fact, I had been reading it in snatches as an occasional escape from working on my dissertation.
Suddenly, the faces of two faculty members who had looked rather weary (it was their last interview on the last day of MLA) lit up. We plunged into a discussion of the novel, sexuality and feminist theory, science fiction, classroom politics, and international theocracies. Serendipitously, both of the professors had recently taught the novel in their courses. The interview closed with one of those leaping, dancing, exhilarating conversations that academe inspires in its finest hours.
That unforeseen question taught me a valuable lesson. I had focused obsessively on the already impossible task of mastering the field of Victorian studies, on meticulously preparing my application materials, on some vague sense of "doing things right" that other "good girls" (male or female) probably also know too well. I hadn't realized that a search committee might also be listening for intangibles, for the unexpected, for those supplementary somethings that exceed narrow conceptions of expertise.
Departments need specialists, of course. Deep, burrowing knowledge in a particular field yields a harvest of fine courses and academic accomplishments. But only the most rarefied departments can afford one-of-a-kind exotics. In my department, we count ourselves lucky when we realize that a candidate has interests that might fill a yawning hole or furrow an entirely new field. We've been surprised and grateful to find we have a continental theorist with a secret life as a science fiction geek, a film scholar whose bedside tower is built of graphic novels, a postmodernist washed up on the shores of environmental studies by a 500-year flood, even a Victorianist who took the bait offered by animal studies.
All of us remain deeply committed to finding success in our fields of expertise, but these unanticipated and evolving secondary and tertiary passions keep propagating new courses, hybridized research areas, and intellectual life — that searching, eager, renewal that keeps a department vital.
Of course, not every interest outside your expertise is wise to bring up until you know your audience. (I've watched too many fellow passengers in planes edge away from my husband as he reads about media representations of terrorism to overlook such distinctions.) Also, the flip side of this particular coin is that you should never be misled by a seemingly informal invitation to talk about your personal life or pursuits to imagine that anything you say in a letter, interview, or on campus will be treated as off the record. Both for good and for ill, the oddest details find their way into evaluative conversations.
Also, many initial interviews are so fleeting that a candidate will have to use every moment strategically just to hit the highlights of her or his research and teaching experience. Those fortunate enough to be invited for a campus interview will have more insight and more time to ponder possible connections between their non-specialist passions — from kayaking to comics to solar energy — and local interests and needs. However, what I am convinced of in general is that students and faculty members thrive in an environment that welcomes unexpected interests and lively curiosity. That kind of atmosphere rarely arises by accident; it is cultivated by receptive and generous minds.
And so, what's my own unexpected advice? This may sound absurd (or absurdly obvious), but anticipating the fall job market argues for rather than against your "summer reading." The simple pleasure of scanning a daily newspaper, following a blog or two outside your academic area, indulging in an at home international Friday night film series, keeping a few books on topics outside your mental comfort zone on your nightstand — all could reasonably be part of your placement preparation. You never know where your own surprising questions might lead or which passions might catch fire in an interview once you've proven your expertise.
In the next few columns, I'll suggest more pragmatic ways to prepare for what will no doubt be an unusually challenging job market. For now, though, I'll staunchly advocate for the wisdom of straying from the professional path occasionally. The expertise one gains as a specialist has its own pleasures as well as practicality. But I wouldn't underestimate the irresistibility of boundless curiosity and delight in the unexpected. Most of us feel a thrill in an interview when a question, however routine or unusual, reveals that a future colleague's mind is alive and kicking whether that candidate is discussing a dissertation, a digression, or dreams for the future.

Another bout of hard rain whipped through and my left foot slipped into the culvert. It came back missing its shoe. I leaned against the car, clutching the tools, trying to stop the horrid feelings coursing through me. I had no more anger to rely on, only hopelessness.
"You look like you could use some help," a male voice called. I looked up, my glasses blinded by rain. I didn't know who it was. I could only sob, covered in mud and show my tools. I didn't want to be helpless, but my mind was surrendering to it all. You can't fight the world.
"We'll start with the jack," the man said, and took it from my hands. He was taller than me, that much I could tell. He moved confidently to the front as another dousing came from the clouds. I followed him, my sock trying to leave itself in the mud. "Stand away from the side in case it slips," he said as he kneeled into the mud trying to find a secure place for the jack.
"Thank you," I said, remembering my manners. "Thank you," I said louder, certain that my first attempt was lost in the rain. He looked back at me and I saw a smile between the droplets running down my lenses.
"Wrench," he said, holding out his hand. I put the wrench in it and he affixed it to the jack. He began raising the car. "Crappy day for a flat tire," he observed. I nodded though he wasn't looking at me as he concentrated on the jack. I wiped my glasses with my wet finger. He had dark hair, soaked through. His shirt and pants were a mess now but looked expensive. The one shoe I could see was brown leather and not something found at Next. My saviour was some kind of executive, probably on his way to work. I sucked in a breath and forced my helplessness away.
"That should do it," he said rising with the wrench. I took it from his hands, trading it for a smile.
"Thank you," I said again. I couldn't believe I had lost it. An executive doesn't collapse at the first sign of trouble. In nine years, I needed to be a rock of confidence. He smiled back, the rain running off his nose and past his strong chin.
"You lost your shoe," he said, pointing at my sock.
"It's been one of those days," I said, trying to ignore the loss. I moved to the tire and inserted the blade end of the wrench into the slot of the hubcap as the manual had said. It popped off and I pretended it didn't surprise me. He was there to catch it before slid into the culvert. He watched as I went at the first lug nut. I pushed down on the wrench and it didn't want to move. Hesitantly, his hand moved next to mine and we pushed together. The nut relented. He removed his hand and let me finish. He stood there in the rain, holding the hubcap and collected lug nuts one at a time. To be honest, his presence gave me strength. His desire not to push the poor woman out of the way and do it himself was nice. He moved from saviour to helper without a thought. I was smiling when I finished the last lug nut.
"I'm Ella," I said as I handed him the last nut. The rain was beginning to let up again.
"Oliver," he responded.
"Thank you for stopping," I repeated again. I lifted the tire off the car and it bounced in the mud. I longer cared about the mud that splattered on my ankles.
"You said that already," Oliver said. I looked up at him. He was smiling at me, almost laughing as I struggled to wheel the flat tire off to the side. He made no move to help, which was strangely helpful. I lifted the dinky donut tire and struggled it onto the bolts. He moved behind me. I suspected he meant to catch me if I started to slide into the culvert. Most helpful. He handed the nuts to me, one at a time, and I screwed them on hand tight. The rain was beginning to cooperate and became more of drizzle. He handed the wrench back to me and I cranked the lug nuts tight. I turned to see him loading the flat tire in the trunk. No communication, just optimized performance that limited the time we needed to be in the rain. I liked Oliver. I moved to the front of the car, inserted the wrench into the jack and began undoing what Oliver had done. He met me there and watched as the car came down. "You handled that well," he said. I could hear the humour in his voice. He was having fun with me. I laughed.
"I am glad you stopped," I admitted as the jack slowly folded back to its rest position, "I was letting it get to me for a moment there." I looked up as I detached the wrench. He held out his hand and I put the wrench in it. I grabbed the jack and we carried them back to the trunk and threw them in. He closed the trunk and turned to me.
"I think you need to rush home, Ella," Oliver said, with a sly smile. I wasn't sure what he meant. Was he giving me a command? I don't take well to commands. His smile changed when he saw my confusion. He leaned closer.
"I think you are a bit more beautiful than you intend right now," Oliver said, his smile growing again. I stepped back as the realization hit me. I looked down and quickly covered my breasts. The rain had made my blouse and bra see-thru. The cold rain had woken my nipples. Traitors. Oliver laughed sweetly as he backed toward his car. "Absolutely beautiful," he repeated as he opened the door car. A sleek black Jaguar that he seemed to fit into well. Red-faced, I headed back to my car and put my soaking wet muddy body on my clean seats.
I looked in the rear view mirror and saw him there. Oliver was waiting to make sure I got back on the road. I smiled. Beautiful he said. He looked pretty good himself. I smiled to the world and waved to Oliver as I got back on the road. Beautiful. I liked my breasts being beautiful. Thank God I didn't know him. I wouldn't have been able to ever face him again. That was, by far, the best worst experience I ever had. That smile of his was so honest. He wasn't just trying to make me feel good. He meant it. My breasts just got promoted to my favorite body part. Sorry calves, you just got demoted.

If you are searching for the best DSLR cameras for beginners, it is safe to assume that you have grown bored with your existing point and shoot camera post testing it to its limits and are now ready to take the next leap to a basic DSLR camera.
DSLRs not only offer better image quality but also arm you with manual controls, exchangeable lenses and faster shutter speeds. Nowadays, the DSLR range starts for as low as Rs. 15,000 and goes all the way up to lakhs and beyond and that's why finding the right DSLR at the right price is a very tricky task. To help you with that, we have come up with a list that includes some great budget DSLR options that you could consider. Here we go:
Nikon 3300 With AF-P 18-55mm VR Lens
The Nikon 3300 should be the go-to DSLR for beginners with a budget of under 25k. For starters, it offers clean and user-friendly interface which is easy to understand and operate. The camera has a Guide Mode for novices that offer an explanation in real time. The 24-megapixel sensor captures plenty of details which further get a boost due to the lack of anti-aliasing filter on the camera. It lacks touchscreen support and WIFI which is not a deal breaker considering its pre tag.
Nikon D3300 Specifications and Best Price
Sensor: APS-C CMOS |Megapixels: 24.2 |Lens mount: Nikon DX
Screen: 3-inch, 921,000 dots | Continuous shooting speed: 5fps
AutoFocus System: 11 fixed & 1 cross-type | Max video resolution: 1080p

It packs 39-autofocus points which ensure it focuses quickly. The D5300 comes with a decent size battery that manages to capture 600 shots on a single charge.

Canon EOS 700D With EF-S 18-55mm IS STM Lens
The successor of Canon EOS 700D is an excellent shooter which meets most of the modern day requirement of an average user. It has all the necessary controls and dials that are required by a photography enthusiast. That's not all, it comes with a touchscreen display to operate and you can also touch to click images. The camera has 18-megapixel CMOS sensor and 9-point all cross type AF system that captures excellent stills and video footage. If you are a fan of wireless file transfer, sadly, you will feel disappointed here.
Canon EOS 700D Specifications and Best Price
Sensor: APS-C CMOS | Megapixels: 18MP | Lens mount: Canon EF-S
Display: 3 inch; 1,040,000 dots; touch-screen Continuous shooting speed: 5fps

The camera features a 24.2-megpaixel along with 39AF points, nine cross-type for greater image quality. Nikon has packed the same AF brain as the one in Nikon D7000. Overall, the Nikon D5500 feels great and performs equally well while shooting.
Nikon D5500D Specifications and Best Price
Sensor: APS-C CMOS | Megapixels: 24.2 | Lens mount: Nikon DX
Screen: 3.2-inch articulating touchscreen, 1,040,000 dots

Canon EOS 750D With EF-S 18-55mm IS STM Lens
The Canon EOS 750D is the go to camera for anyone who has a budget of around 50,000 INR. The best thing about this camera is its 19-point on-sensor autofocus system (all the cross types) which makes its live view focusing stand out in its category. The focus tracking is brilliant as well. Though the images are slightly less sharp in comparison to Nikon D5500 due to a presence of anti-aliasing filter in the former. Nonetheless, the EOS 750D comes with improved exposure metering system, WIFI, NFC and touch-sensitive screen which give it a slight edge over Nikon D5500.

Download the authoritative guide: Cloud Computing 2018: Using the Cloud to Transform Your BusinessGoogle is an incredibly successful company but its revenue comes from advertising, not from selling products. Free can be very attractive to enterprises and government but if the cost of free is the privacy of employees, most will likely find the cost exceeds the value of the offering. Instead, for Google to be successful in the enterprise it will need to adopt a model that matches what the enterprise wants to see.
This is something Apple has successfully avoided and the cost to Microsoft of becoming an enterprise vendor may have been the loyalty of the users that founded them.
As a result, Googles attack on the enterprise may be more similar to Custers Last Stand then the success weve seen from them so far. Lets explore that.
Googles Revenue Model
This would suggest that Microsoft and Google arent natural competitors anymore than Microsoft and Netscape initially were. Microsoft wasnt in the advertising business and there is enough money in that business as Google has demonstrated to create a very large and financially successful company without drifting over into Microsofts turf.
But, this market is unfortunately defined by avoidable battles and currently Microsoft and Google are at war.
Googles Enterprise Play
Like Netscape, Google has felt strongly it needs to go in and attack the markets where Microsoft is dominant. However, its attacks are largely made by using their advertising revenue to fund a lower cost, often free, alternative to something Microsoft either charges for or also gives away for free. But while the cost of the offering is certainly attractive the sustainability and risk associated with it, so far, have not been. And this may not be easy to correct.
First, Google needs a way to establish itself as a viable player in the enterprise space, something that Microsoft initially needed IBMs help to do itself. Once established, Google has to be able to more traditionally match the services and products they are providing to the funding sources, or find a way to get enterprises to allow advertising to their employees to fund the offering.
This last would seem brain dead easy until you realize that to get the kind of returns Google would need, it will have to supply personal and corporate information on these potential buyers that most enterprises would be unwilling to easily give up. Targeted marketing is where the money is and to do that you have to be able to profile the users. Unwilling is likely a substantial understatement.
This means, long term (outside of trials and companies that operate on the bleeding edge) Google will need to become more like a traditional software company with real enterprise revenue. This will be at least as difficult for Google as it is for Microsoft to establish a revenue source based on advertising. Neither firm is structured to operate well in the others area of competence.
Google vs. Microsoft
Now that these two mismatched companies are joined in battle, the winner will likely be decided by the one that can do more damage to the others revenue source.
For instance, Microsoft forced Netscape to destroy their browser revenue stream long before Netscape had worked out either their portal or their enterprise business and won. Google is attempting to force Microsoft to prematurely cannibalize its desktop revenue streams to respond to the threats represented by the Chrome OS, Chrome Browser, and Android.
Microsoft is attempting to do deals with News Corp and other content providers to lock Google Search out and collapse the companys advertising revenue stream. Neither firm is critically exposed to the others attack. Microsofts base is largely institutionalized and incredibly difficult to move to new technologies. And Googles access to content is so great that many feel News Corp will take more critical damage to its revenue more quickly should they try to cut Google off.
I often wonder if Microsofts better attack against Google would have been to stay out of search and argue unfair competition as Google approached monopoly status and seek government help before entering the segment.
For Google, going after Microsofts Enterprise business seems seriously premature and it likely would have done better focusing on Apple first (which they kind of are with the Android) and consumers, and then using a solid position there to drive with the user into the enterprise, much as RIM effectively did.
Conversely, Google could partner with IBM, Dell, or HP (or all three) to get there much like Microsoft did. Google is too fixated on Microsoft. And the company is at a stage where its are unwilling to partner effectively in many ways, mirroring the mistakes of those that preceded them.
Wrapping Up: Googles Enterprise Success Unlikely
What companies dont seem to get about the enterprise is that it isnt about who has the best product or even the cheapest product. It isnt even about who has the best solution.
It is about understanding how to dance the enterprise dance, being invited to the ball, and then developing a happily-ever-after relationship that benefits both parties. Im still amazed at the number of people who lost their jobs on both the vendor and IT side when Netscape (and others) didnt fundamentally understand this. Google is badly positioned for the enterprise and while it has the resources to try to plow into this market the cost may end up being more than even this very profitable firm can bear.
The lesson from General Custer is, yes you can go into someone elses turf and do a lot of damage; surviving the effort, however, can be problematic.

In Venice vacation rentals are an excellent option. It's the best way to really live the city; even if only for a few days having your own apartment makes you feel more like one of the locals than a hotel ever could.
I don't know why, maybe I'm a little crazy, but going off to the outdoor markets and buying lots of great fresh local products and coming home to cook a pasta dish for my family washed down, with a bottle of local Veneto wine, is one of my greatest pleasures.
You can't do that in an hotel but in an apartment you can.
That's why I often choose an apartment when I'm in Venice.
There are only a few places which I can really recommend. They are the following…
Only a five minute walk to San Marco and the Rialto Bridge. The
apartments are clean and spacious while the staff are all very friendly
and speak English well. Some of the apartments have lovely views
over the canals and it is worth asking for one of these.
For a map, more reviews, photos and booking details please click here.
Cannaregio is where the "real" Venice is to be found, you'll discover shops full of fascinating things and not only touristy gifts. Locals fill the squares and tourists are seldom seen down the little lanes and alongside the picturesque canals of this part of Venice. So, if you'd like to experience Venice like a local, this is the place to do it and you'll find no better apartments than Al' Campanile.
Next door is the beautiful church of the Madonna dell'Orto and around the corner there's a bakery making the most dreamy of pastries and croissants. Here is everything you need to know and other reviews. This apartment goes quickly so book early.
Timeshares in Venice are affordable luxury condos that are located right in the heart of the city. They can be found within resorts which have luxurious amenities and access to all the points of interest like the Bell Tower of St. Mark, Rialto Bridge, and the Museums of Mark's Square.
Get a taste of the city with nearby restaurants like Antico Martini, Do Loeni or indulge yourself in the nightlife with late night drinking at the Spritz.
A site called SellMyTimeshareNow.com offers weekly Venice timeshare rentals at such resorts as Perle Veneziane, Hotel Palazzo del Giglio, and Gioielli del Doge, all recognized for their excellence. For more photos and booking details please click here.
Look out onto the Grand Canal and the famous Rialto Bridge from this delightful apartment. Outside your door you'll find all of Venice's most important attractions. Remember I mentioned how great it is to be able to buy fresh local ingredients at the market and come home and prepare a lunch or dinner? Well the good news is that the most famous outdoor market in all Venice is only a five minute walk away. For more details and photos please click here.

The soundtrack for 2001's Monsters, Inc., like many Pixar films, featured a whole lot of Randy Newman. He'll be back for 2013's prequel, Monsters University, only in much heavier company, as Atlanta's grimy metal lords Mastodon have been contracted to write a song for the movie. The quartet are arguably better suited to the subject matter than any of their grim-faced peers, having crafted a number of tunes that could easily describe the John Goodman-voiced blue hulk known as Sully ("Curl of the Burl," anyone? "Crusher Destroyer"?) as well as more beast-oriented titles than maybe any band ever ("Circle of Cysquatch," "Where Strides the Behemoth," "Octopus Has No Friends,""Call of the Mastodon," "Deep Sea Creature," "Iron Tusk," "Megalodon," "Ol'e Nessie"—need we go on?).
And was there ever a more family-friendly moment than Mastodon's puppet-populated clip for "Deathbound"? One of the puppets is almost exactly a hybrid of Monsters, Inc.'s two protagonists, for cryin' out loud. Relive the magic:
Okay, okay, there was a more family-friendly moment—the time Mastodon posed with Barney and friends. Bingo.

I am sure that completing c25k has improved my self-confidence. I have been quite happy working in the same school for 14 years. I have considered going for promotion, but most jobs feel far beyond me, even though my Head disagrees.
Well this week I applied for a job, and have an interview next week. I haven't had an interview for 30 years! Yikes.
I am sure it is the fact that I have proved to myself that I can be successful at something so challenging as running for 30 minutes. For a 57 year old, overweight asthmatic who was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure and high colesterol in January 2013, the 30 minute run seemed like a pipe dream. But just look at that shiny graduate badge by my name! I did it, and I know that I can do so much more in many different areas.
Next week I will need my runs in order to keep my stress levels down. I plan a run for pleasure this evening - and will be grinning to myself most of the way because of my change of attitude.

Henry was the heart throb on the TV series High Chaparral. Many of you ladies will remember him! He's had many other memorable roles. Check out his book!http://www.amazon.com/Henry-Darrow-Lightning-Jan-Pippins/dp/1593936885/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1407263979&sr=1-1&keywords=henry+darrow
Henry Darrow (born EnriqueTomás Delgado) overcame life-threatening illness, crippling anxiety and prejudice to become internationally famous as sexy, complex "Manolito Montoya" in the western The High Chaparral (1967-1971). He was the first actor of Puerto Rican heritage to star in a television series. "Henry survived and had a career when if you were Latino, you couldn't be just good, you had to be beyond great and that's Henry," says noted writer/entertainer Rick Najera. At the height of his fame Darrow put his hard-won career on the line to open doors for other Hispanics. He has continued to break ground for over fifty years as a working actor. He was the first Latino to portray Zorro, the first Latino to win a Daytime Emmy for Best Supporting Actor and in 2012 he received the prestigious ALMA award for Lifetime Achievement from the National Council of La Raza (NCLR). "Henry Darrow: Lightning in the Bottle" is the must-read portrait of this inspirational, fiercely determined, endearing and enduring performer. This is a great read, don't miss it!
Dear readers, I met Henry Darrow at the 2014 High Chaparral Reunion in Tucson when I was there for the premiere of Geronimo, Life on the Reservation*.. What a charming, likable man!
*Note: Some of you may not of heard of my one-man Geronimo show starring Rudy Ramos. It's traveling around the Southwest United States. If it comes to a theater near you, don't miss it!

TAM Docents: Glassblowing experience for you...if you want it
Hello Docents-
I have been able to make arrangements with Tacoma Glassblowing Studio for a true hands-on glassblowing experience for any of you who wish to participate. It will cost $55 per person, provided that we have 6 or more, and you would be responsible for that amount yourselves. The upside is that you will get to choose your own colors and 1 of 9 shapes to create so you can be creative and not just go through the motions. Each person will get up to ½ hour of hands-on time so it is more comprehensive than other experiences we've been able to offer in the past. What I need from you is an idea of who would like to participate on Thursday, June 9 from 10 am – 1 pm. Likely, Courtney will be joining you, as only one of us can get away from the Program Planning meeting scheduled for that day, and this is such a cool deal that Courtney wants to do it and she's my bossJ Please let me know ASAP if you want to participate so that I can officially book that date for our group.
Thank you!

NEW YORK — Attorney William Kunstler, who has defended political radicals, reputed mob bosses, accused spies, alleged arms smugglers and even actresses, has one major consideration when he is asked to represent someone.
And it isn't the prospect of winning.
"You're playing not with an eye on some scorecard for lawyers," he said recently. "You're playing with an eye on history."
That keen eye for what will attract attention was evident earlier this month, when a judge in Boston refused to appoint the 67-year-old Kunstler to represent eight radicals charged with trying to overthrow the U.S. government through several bombings and bank robberies.
In a scene reminiscent of Chicago in 1969, Kunstler shouted at the judge: "Why don't you reconsider before it's too late?"

Nema Food Company is the leading Halal meat processor in North America. Founded in 2002 as a subsidiary of Nema Holding, the company's national headquarters is located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The company evolved when founders acquired Rendulic Packing Company in 2001 and initiated collaborative partnerships with universities, food consultants and local religious authorities familiar with Halal foods and Zabiha preparation. Based on these partnerships, the plant was completely modified to produce food with a distinct focus on one outcome: Halal Quality. Since then, Nema Food has been the proud provider of the highest-quality Halal food products in North America, and our commitment to serving the Halal consumers remains our guiding principle today.
Nema Food is driven by our enthusiasm for community, our commitment to integrity, and our devotion to quality. From day one, our focus has revolved around the needs of Halal consumers and other customers who seek healthy and high-quality products and is governed by our allegiance to Halal consumables and the principles of Zabiha preparation. We follow strict compliance guidelines and demand excellence in the quality of our products and the compassion of our services. Our strong work ethic – coupled with our adherence to environmental issues – results in a culture of continuous enhancement that aimed at excellent customer service, unsurpassed professional reliability, and superior quality of product—values that are all aimed at providing the highest level of satisfaction to our customers and our community.
Nema Food is dedicated to serving the Halal consumers in accordance with the Qur'an and Sunnah guidelines. Our dedication to these practices has resulted in respectable, long-term relationships with members of Halal communities across North America. We treat every individual in our community as part of our family, and that approach is also indicative of how we've been able to develop and build an elaborate network of American distributors and retailers. At Nema, affordable, high-quality Halal food is our passion, and we are adamant about our responsibility to provide everyone in the Halal consumers with the food products and personable service they deserve.
With a 50,000 square-foot facility in southwestern Pennsylvania, Nema Food is among the few Halal-inspired plants in North America that slaughters and processes its animals in the same facility. The entire process is monitored by the USDA and overseen by Islamic authorities certified in Zabiha practices and Halal production. We employ state-of-the-art, custom-designed technology that affords us the greatest amount of production control for properly integrating Zabiha code with the safest, most modern practices in meat processing. From butchering to packaging, all our operations are carried out under the most hygienic conditions possible, ensuring our foods meet the high expectations of our distributors and consumers. Our strategic location—just outside the city of Pittsburgh—provides immediate access to interstate systems that connect us to all the major metropolitan areas in the country, ensuring fast and healthy delivery of our products to all major American cities.
Nema Food understands and adheres to the principles and responsibilities associated with the preparation, production and packaging of Halal-certified foods. Nema is fully compliant with American federal standards and certified Islamic authorities for the safe, efficient production of Halal foods. Each of our various products are approved by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and certified Halal at the national level by Islamic authorities. The USDA and the Islamic Authorities approve and certify our products only through constant supervision of our production process.
The owners of Nema Food firmly believe that top-quality products can be made only by using top-quality ingredients. To that end, Nema Food selects the healthiest livestock and most premium ingredients for each product we develop. A natural harmony is created when we combine the best quality meats and the world's most exquisite spices, giving Nema Food a superb taste that remains unmatched by all other off-brand products.
Our commitment to quality is clear: Nema Food's product portfolio was developed based on our company's personal philosophy as well as the input of our Halal consumers. Our range of products include the freshest possible beef, lamb, goat, poultry and deli products, as well as a variety of "heat and serve" and other ready-made or easy-to-prepare foods.
Nema Food continues to keep its finger on the pulse of the Halal food production industry, keeping in tune with the freshest ideas to improve our products and services and exploring collaborative partnerships with our Halal consumers. To date, we have cooperated with established Halal brands and partnered with Seyidoglu –one of the most prominent dessert-makers in Turkey with unmatched taste and quality of products– in an effort to add variety to our menu and to meet and exceed the expectations of our unique and growing community. In fact, our commitment to Zabiha practices and to Halal foods has generated further demand for our products in Canada and in the Middle East.
Our extensive network of national distributors allows us to provide high-quality Halal foods to a variety of American retail stores and food service companies. We also offer private label production, designing exciting new products that provide customized solutions for companies looking to complement their business image. Nema Foods also strives to utilize digital technologies to better serve our community of consumers. Be sure to visit our online store at MyHalalMeat.com – the interactive site allows us to connect to Halal-consuming families and communities in more remote locations. In addition, we also make every effort to connect with our community online — to listen to their needs, collect their feedback, and assure that we continue to provide excellence in service and product.

Gate of Hades experience
iDoser is a program that uses binaural sounds to produce an effect similar to using certain drugs like LSD, marijuana and cocaine. It's supposed to be perfectly safe and it's 100% legal.
I wasn't really interested in those that simulate drugs but there's one that cough my attention. It's called Gate of Hades. It's supposed to be their strongest product and it should scare you to death. This is what description says:
"Expect nightmares, near death experiences, and strong onset of fear."
And I don't except any less cause it costs $200.
I've read a lot of experiences on different forums and they all said they were really scared and some of them had even hallucinations. There are tons of reaction videos on youtube and all of them show pretty strong effects. This one is the most interesting:
reaction vid
I tried the mp3 version but it didn't work at all. When I played it in the actual program it was entirely different experience. I've also heard some sounds I don't remember hearing from mp3 version. So download the actual iDoser program (it's free) and get the dose files with drg extension. Interesting thing is that dose files are like only 100KB large.
The sound is composed of two parts. The first half is supposed to made you relax and put it into trans. The second should make you really scared (which didn't really worked for me:(
It definitely does things to your body- very intense REM that won't stop even if you open your eyes made me shit brix for the first time. You will definitely experience it even if you don't concentrate on the sounds cause I was talking to my friend and laughing when it happened. I suggest you to put something over your eyes especially if you want to do it with lights on. Another thing that it definitely does is numb your body. Try to not move so much if you want paralysis effect.
I've tried it twice and here's how it went:
On the first try I wasn't concentrating much and I was talking a lot. I started to breath really heavy and my body was shaking, especially legs and I felt really cold. Also REM. I was excited that it's working, put the headphones away very early (only 19%) and I wanted it for my friend to try and do the real thing later. I was still shaking 20 minutes after the experience. I don't think that the first part is supposed to have that effect.
Then my friend did it and he wasn't shacking or anything. After 80% he threw away the headphones and said that everything was red (behind closed eyes) and he was spinning in some kind of spiral and was afraid he'll crash into something. He later regretted that he didn't go all the way.
The second time I was really concentrated and I didn't shake or felt cold this time. When the second half begun the noise was really loud and I though I won't be able to handle it but surprisingly, I got use to it after a minute. After 80% there's a fast vibration and you hear the exact metallic sound like when someone is plugged into the matrix. It was pretty damn cool. I don't remember hearing it on mp3 version. That was the part when my friend felt like he was in the spiral but I didn't experience anything similar. I finished it and I haven't really felt anything, not even in the end when it started to change a lot. Only thing that could be described as scary for me, was that little weird cracking sound coming from the right earphone somewhere near the end. I guess I wasn't scared because I was with my friend and I felt 100% safe. It would be probably very different if I did it alone. So I guess there is placebo effect to it but it definitely does something. Like what if I give you gate of hades and tell you that you're supposed to cum listening to this. It wouldn't work but I bet you'd get hard anyway. In gate, they put sounds that will make you uncomfortable but i's still up to you how will you take it.
random fact: when you hear yourself talking while listening to it, you sound like a robot


text: Samsung has been giving Galaxy S owners a confusing ride for the last couple of weeks. At first, they said that the Galaxy S would not be able to take Ice Cream Sandwich, then they decided to reevaluate that position, after an outcry in the community. Afterward, they indicated that a "Value Pack" would be offered with some limited ICS features. Unfortunately, they are now saying that the "Value Pack" will not be available either. A Samsung spokesperson said the company won't be releasing the update due to the hardware specs of the older Galaxy devices, and further shared that the products "are limited to and fully optimised for the Gingerbread experience." It looks like its up to the Android community to come to Galaxy S owners rescue now, if they want some form of ICS on their device. Source: PhoneDog

As the European Union keeps on warning Google about its privacy policy till the summer it will probably face some serious sanctions.
After in March this year the search engine giant combined 60 privacy policies of their different services into one, the EU pushes it to change their privacy policy.
Some of the changes will include the right of Google to track individual users across different Google services. Google is known to operate also with some other services like Gmail, YouTube, Google+, and Android mobile systems.
Using these different services Google may now make their targeted advertising more effective.
This new privacy policy does not obey EU privacy regulations because through it Google collects too much personal information which in some of the cases users prefer not to share.
The warning of the EU towards Google was not to use the personal data collected simply for advertising purposes and to "reinforce users' consent".
Yesterday the French privacy regulator CNIL announced that Google did not manage to do some changes and give proper answers in the period of four months it was given.
"In this context, the EU data protection authorities are committed to act and continue their investigations," CNIL added. "Therefore, they propose to set up a working group, led by the CNIL, in order to coordinate their reaction, which should take place before summer."
Google, on the other hand, claims they had taken steps to comply with European law and that they will continue doing so.
According to Joaquin Almunia, the EU's head of competition, Google used the fact it is a main search engine in order to unfairly promote their own products.
Another thing Google was also blamed for was that it paid for paying only £6 million in UK tax last year, despite generating $4.1 billion of revenue.
Google is a big company, but we know that most of you do own a company website. For this website, however, you also need a privacy policy! The Legal Stop has taken care of this, as we provide a Free Website Privacy Policy Template.

Dirty Shoes. Dirty Dog. Darn Good Days.
We recently took a sweet little mini vacation to celebrate our two year anniversary (I can't believe two years have passed so quickly!) Our little 3 day adventure took us away from the monotony of work and school and we traveled down to Escalante, Utah with exploring on our minds. We planned a trip that we could take our dear 1.5yr old pup, Penny, on and have some good off leash wandering for our little adventurer. This was Penny's first camping trip and she handled it like a champ, despite having trouble with being able to hear and not see the outside sounds from within the tent at night. We wore her out on the second day of hiking after a good 10 miles she was totally pooped for the next few days. There are a lot of really great pet friendly areas to hike in southern Utah, however be sure to stay away from National Parks as they are NOT pet friendly. We really enjoyed the calf creek falls trails, red canyon and the petrified forest.
It was really amazing to just get away from the city for a few days. A definite must when there is school and work always pulling us in different directions. Can't wait for our next adventure!

El Salvador earns tie in BBVA Compass Stadium's first international match
With flags of El Salvador draped over their shoulders, Herson Rivas and his two cousins, Steven and Oliver Rivas, rejoiced in watching so many other fans cheering for their beloved Selecta against New Zealand on Wednesday night at BBVA Compass Stadium.
Sons of immigrants from El Salvador, the Maryland and Washington, D.C., natives were proud to see BBVA Compass Stadium in blue while watching the first international match at the new East End stadium end in a 2-2 draw.
"This is my first time at the stadium, and I think it's awesome," Rivas, 23, said. "To bring El Salvador was a real smart idea due to the large number of folks from El Salvador here."
Houston, Los Angeles and D.C. have the United States' largest concentration of immigrants from El Salvador, and La Selecta is traditionally a major draw in those cities. Oliver Rivas, 23, joked that Wednesday's crowd of 13,256 reminded him of the ones El Salvador drew at RFK when they were kids.
"We don't get El Salvador coming much," Steven Rivas said, "so it's good to have this game here to show how many fans we actually have."
It's an understatement to say the crowd leaned heavily toward El Salvador, which used the friendly as a tuneup for La Selecta's World Cup qualifying match against Costa Rica next month. It will play two more matches in the U.S., including one against rival Honduras on June 8 at RFK Stadium.
In the 13th minute, Burgos capped a breakaway with a cheeky chip over goalkeeper Mark Paston to send the blue-clad crowd into a flag-waving frenzy. The lead didn't last long. Ian Hogg tied it at 1 in the 28th minute. Burgos broke the tie in the 56th minute.
Kosta Barbarouses tied it at 2 for New Zealand in the 64th minute, prompting the crowd to respond with chants of "Si se puede! Si se puede!" Translation: "Yes, we can. Yes, we can."
"This is marvelous," said Agustin Barraza of La Union, El Salvador. "It's such an honor to have El Salvador play the first international match at this beautiful stadium."

UK residents with foreign income or gains: dividends: Underlying tax: reserves
TIOPA10/S59 (8) provides that 'relevant profits' or 'profits available for distribution' are the company's accounts' profits making no provision for reserves, bad debts or contingencies other than such as is required to be made under the foreign country's law.
In practice, transfers to reserves for a future liability are allowed if they represent a proper deduction in computing commercial profits and there is a firm expectation that the liability will be incurred and they are directly related to the expected amount of the liability. Provisions which represent an appropriation of profit or which are made not on grounds of commercial necessity but for reasons of commercial prudence are regarded as available for distribution and included in relevant profits.
CTIAA Underlying Tax Group has considered a number of reserves commonly found in particular countries. Their proper treatment is shown in the Group's information leaflets, which are sent to companies when considering a dividend.

Egypt is quickly turning into the latest hot spot for newlyweds on their honeymoon. When people first hear of Egypt, honeymoon does not necessarily come to mind. However, this beautiful location is calling all lovebirds to its unbeatable scenery and fascinating history.
Being the oldest empire on Earth, Egypt is full of ancient details just waiting to be discovered. There are of course the sights most people are familiar with, like the pyramids, temples and the Nile Valley, but that is not all that Egypt has to offer. The beautiful beaches of this timeless country have been hushed for too long and it is time they get the recognition they deserve.
Imagine strolling down a beach filled with luscious white sand and cool blue water. Now imagine traveling that beach after riding on a camel. Couples can take a romantic camel ride through the deserts and afterwards freshen up at one of the many beautiful beaches Egypt has to offer. The heat in Egypt will make anyone want to take their shirt off and cool off in the refreshing ocean water.
The adventure does not end there. No honeymoon would be complete without seeing the mind-blowing Pyramids at Giza constructed for King Khufu, a site that will make anyone happy to be witnessing it with the one they love. Couples will be in awe and in love while being in front of one of the greatest man-made world wonders ever constructed. If for no other reason, Egypt is undeniably the new honeymoon hot spot for its pyramids alone.
The best part of Egypt is that it has found a way to incorporate both ancient history and modern-day culture. While the past is still present in every breath a person takes in Egypt, the modernity of this location is increasingly more evident. The Mediterranean lifestyle here can incorporate anyone into its ways. Cairo's bazaars are always active and a great way to find those one of a kind souvenirs. Couples can go snorkeling at Na'ama Bay or choose to go dancing at some of Egypt's hottest clubs.
Regardless of whether couples are looking for a historical honeymoon or a laid back vacation, romance will be boundless on both. For those wishing to begin their married life with a captivating history lesson, the Nile is the place to start. Along this journey couples can experience the temples, mummies, monasteries and, of course, the Pyramids. If a beach getaway is the desire, newlyweds can begin their vacation at the Red Sea, attracting visitors to its stunning beaches where snorkeling and scuba diving are only a few of the romantic adventures waiting to be had.
A common misconception is that Egypt does not condone drinking as it is a predominantly Islamic country. While the vast amount of Muslims in this country do not drink themselves, there is never an issue with tourists enjoying their time in this magical place whether that be with or without alcohol. The people of Egypt are nothing but friendly and are welcoming people of all cultures and religions with open arms.
Any couple looking for romance, adventure, history and beautiful scenery should book their romantic getaway to Egypt. Forego the typical island vacations and try something new, a trip that is guaranteed not to disappoint. Book a flight to Egypt and experience why this place truly is the new hot spot for newlyweds on their honeymoon.

In the Shadow of the Moon
Filmmaker David Sington merges the magnificence of science with the compelling drama of the human quest for advancement with this fascinating and visually stunning meditation on the historic Apollo space program. In the four remarkable years between 1968 and 1972, American history took a defining turn as nine NASA spacecraft made the trip to the moon, and 12 bold explorers became the first men ever to set foot on ground beyond planet Earth. In this documentary, space enthusiast Sington allows the surviving crew members from each Apollo mission the unique opportunity to recount their memories of those missions in their own words as vintage, original NASA film footage offers a tantalizing glimpse of this extraordinary era in American history. Candid interviews with the astronauts reveal the sensitive and fun-loving souls whose fearlessness would lead a nation into a new era of progress, and audio recordings from Mission Control lend a newfound sense of poignancy to a variety of oft-recounted historical milestones.

This may well be the same video that Clifford Sweattie ( http://www.pranaairways.com) referred to in the comments to my earlier post
"This spring another Advanced A video that has never been published will be posted to our website. It is similar to the intermediate video in that our small group didn't know video cameras would greet us that day in a garage in Kealakekua Bay, Hawaii".
Clifford also mentioned that these video recordings were spur of the moment things with somebody surprising everyone by turning up with a camera. That suggests that this was perhaps a regular led Advanced class rather than a demonstration.
"There was nothing scripted about these sessions or Guruji's methods other than the asana sequence and vinyasas. There were cameras in class snapping photos from time to time but video shoots were rare and unexpected for most of us".

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Macintosh Computers' started by dbomb7, May 4, 2004.
Anyone hear of any new hardware updates that are going to be announced at the WWDC?
and there off!.....
let the speculation begin
No real rumors yet - but there are a few items that a really needing an update, so its really anybodies guess whether they'll wait till WWDC or not.
rumors rumors rumors rumors
What have I missed them! They where the only reason why I signed up to this forum. I hope there are no new/faster G5's, because then a whole lot of folders are passing me, while I just past them with my ole' G5
Well my thoughts... iMac update before or at WWDC... Unlikely to be G5 because of PB but then again, its been a while so G5 is a shot for the iMac in a new form factor...
New iPods?
I realize that you are kidding Dreadnought. Willing to give give your concept a try, a negative that turns positive. So far the only safe bet is the Power Mac Rev. B G5. I think that we will see at least 3 GHz, Steve seems to be a man of his word.
I'm sure that for the cause of medical science you will allow the chance. The day will come that you will purchase a new G5/G6!
New imacG5 or whatever cause you just cant keep selling slow G4s forever so thats a must show as is rev-b powermacs. Apple has to get the G5 into more products otherwise it would have been a waste of time to design a g5 for only powermac. Everyone knows that to buy a G4 desk machine means you are going to sacrifice performance vs any wintel so i expect a new G5 machine to help spur sales. a bumped up G4 isnt going to do much to increase imac sales and i think if apple was going to just bump the imac we would have seen it. expect a new G5 based consumer machine and if im wrong ill Macslap my Quicksilver! Jobs has to do something to turn around his meager marketshare and slow selling desk tops.
I doubt we'll see new consumer machines during a developer conference. But, I would love to see SJ spend his time on promoting the updates to XCode and developer tools, then near the end of his demo...he stops...pauses...then says...
These apps are going to fly on the new dual 3Ghz G5 powermac!
Also still waiting for bigger iPods. would love to see them in sizes of 15/30/60.
A man can dream.
An excellent way to introduce the PowerMac G5 3Ghz
New iPods? They're one of the last things that need updates! Here's my thoughts:
What I want to happen: (1) iMac G5 - this would be a much needed and (really nice) update. (2) Dual 3 Ghz Powermacs (I still don't think ole' Stevie's gonna let us down)
What I think will happen: New iPods
Keep in mind that Steve Jobs said that Apple was moving away from making big hardware releases at the two big conferences. Hence disappointment by some at the last one in January.
Things may be a little more spread out as he weens us off of those (formerly) product-release events. Makes sense, if Apple finished a major new product in May, many would not expect it to be released before the summer conference. Now, when they are ready, they are ready - let's tell everyone!
I really applaud this move away from MWs - it keeps us guessing/surprised (remember PBs and Ibooks?) and takes the pressure off of them to release a flood of products twice a year.
