If you love the king of rock and roll, look no further. Nigel Burchill is an Elvis Tribute artist with a passion for bringing music and history of the worlds greatest star to life, its pure entertainment, great nostalgia and 100% rock and roll!!
Nigel´s show tells the story of Elvis from his early years, his time in the army and the much loved films he made, an incredible amount of number one songs and of course the iconic costumes he wore. and you don´t have to remember the king to enjoy it- a real family show, this is entertainment for all ages, no need for heartbreak hotel, get ready to shake rattle and roll!
The performance lasts an entire evening, includes the music and much much more. from his rock and roll and gospel roots, to hit records, to the classic comeback, to the 70´s, Nigel spans the kings entire career. along the way he tells the story of Elvis, stories, snippets of information and facts and figures, all to build a picture of the greatest entertainer that ever lived.
But what really makes each show unique is the audience, Nigel doesn´t just stand and sing, his act isn't a one sided love affair, like the man himself, he interacts with the crowd, audience participation plays a big role in the experience. As Nigel says, " get on your blue suede shoes and get ready to jive, march, do the rock-a-hula, and act like a hound dog!
Nigel is based in Mazarron and performs for commercial businesses (i.e bars, restaurants and pubs), private parties, fiestas, pool parties and anything in between all up and down the coast. not for nothing isNigel billed as "the Costas favorite tribute act.
"Great night ELVIS, aka. Nigel Burchill. Thanks muchly for poster and CD. From a fan x"
"Thank you Nigel and Sally for a great Saturday afternoon, enjoyed every minute. Met some lovely people all still rockin'. Elvis' music will never die. Love you both, see you soon. xx"
Nigel has even sang to the cast of Benidorm twice and has appeared in the elvis benidorm fiesta twice.

3 Free to Play FPS Games
Red Eclipse
Red Eclipse is a multi-platform game that runs on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux operating systems. It is a Quake shooter, with comparable movement and gameplay, but offers many different game modes and 'mutators' that change the rules of play that make the game much more interesting. The game modes and physics can be altered by players to set up completely unique ways to play, meaning that there are endless combinations of lobbies that you can find yourself in. With a collection of nine weapons, including a sword and flamethrower as well as the more traditional pistol, SMG, and rifle, there are tons of ways to frag players online.
There are many different game modes to play, ranging from TDM to King of the Hill, with a few interesting variations thrown in. For example, users can choose to play in an Onslaught lobby, where increasing waves of neutral zombies will try to take down both teams or in an expert game where only headshots count as hits. I found Red Eclipse to be much more fun than other Quake style games that I've played in the past, and would strongly encourage users to download this game and give it a try.
Red Eclipse Gameplay
Urban Terror
I played this game extensively on my Mac, and loved it a lot due to the highly competitive nature of most of the players and the slightly challenging rules. Health cannot be regenerated, so once you've been shot the damage is permanent until you die. I found the game to play similar to Counter Strike, though the respawn function is a clear difference that lessens the learning curve a bit. Players choose a loadout that they can customize before jumping into the action, and can utilize a wide range of weaponry to fight their opponents. There is no single player mode in this game, and the learning curve can be quite steep to new players, but the game is highly enjoyable and great for more competitive gamers out there.
Urban Terror is completely free to play, and no advertising or paid weapons are found in the game. The game will run on both Windows, Mac, and Linux based computers, and platforms are able to play against each other in online games.
Urban Terror Gameplay
Alien Arena 2011
This game probably has the best graphics that I have seen in a free to play game, and is based off of the older Quake II code. Alien Arena focuses primarily on multiplayer elements, though there is an offline practice mode with bots that can help new players get a feel for the controls. Alien Arena runs well on both Windows and Linux, but is unsupported for Mac OS X. It is possible that a user made fix for this has been implemented or can be found online, but it would take some searching as the following for this game seems rather small.
The game is free to play, though advertisements will be shown in the game client from time to time to help pay for development and server costs. This really isn't too much of an issue, as they aren't obnoxious or in your face, but it is something to note nonetheless.

Alrighty...made it to Cairns okay....made it to the resort in good shape. Showered, dried my hair, caught a shuttle into town to wander around. Bought me some groceries cuz I noticed there was a fridge in the room (sweet)! Then I decided to hang out and have some dinner on a patio before catching the shuttle back. Evil, evil, evil. Four hours later I was in food poisoning HELL!
I was kind of paranoid as I had to meet a bus at 9 am to go to the marina and get out to the reef but by 7am I knew there was NO WAY I was going to make it. Luckily, as is the Aussie way, I called and told them the problem and they said I could just choose to go another day. Thank you Quicksilver!
P.S. If you ever happen to have the opportunity to dine half way across the planet and someone suggests the happening joint called Rattle and Hum....run screaming in the opposite direction!

Girl's night out! Having wine with my best friend and decided to get fancy.
Also decided to go with a hair bun tonight, which is one of my favorite hairstyles because it's so easy to do, and it's very classy! As much as I love long, flowy hair, there's something about a big bun that makes any girl look well-put. Also, I think it's worth putting in money buying the sock bun products in different sizes. This is the largest one I have on my head. I might buy something bigger since my hair is long enough to cover a bigger bun.

funny story.. well kinda. we had our replay of the semi final game tonight for hockey. the team we're playing is really rought, but miraculously the game isn't as bad as usual. in the third period they score. 1-0 them. then we score and it's huge! and then we go into 5-minute sudden death overtime. the same girl who scored for us puts the puck on the goal line and i tap it in. we win! everybody's happy! girlie there tells the ref and the whole team that she put the puck in the net. fine. bitch.
then knitting was good. we were all yawning around 10pm so that was bad. i still didn't get home until 11:30. i left my hockey gear in the car because bringing it in is loud and i didn't want to wake the kitties. who am i kidding?
i'm getting through the great gatsby in french and i'm finding it better than it was in english, but i think it's because it's almost like i'm skimming with all the words i don't understand. i look forward to reading it every night though.
i watched shawn of the dead last night. it was a really funny movie. i especially like when shawn demonstrates killing his girlfriend and himself. maybe you'll know the part if you've seen it. thanks to goodlife for giving me free rentals.

Notification of Catalog Pages Awaiting Edits/Approval
To facilitate ease of the Undergraduate and Graduate Catalogs edit/approval process, individuals in workflow responsible for edits or approving edits will receive an email notification when a page is ready for their edits/approval. The email will contain a link that will take the responsible individual to a central console known as the Pages Pending Approval window, where all the pages currently awaiting their edits/approval will be displayed.
Training/refresher classes will be available February 19-23. Seating is limited, so please sign up to ensure a space by visiting: www.SignUpGenius.com/go/10C0E4CABAA28A1F85-twuonline2. New catalog editors MUST complete a training class before their catalog pages will be released for edits. Those who wish to take a refresher training class are welcome to sign up as well. Administrators who are approving catalog content may arrange one-on-one training with Scott Martin (contact info below).
Changes to Degree Plans
Any substantive change to a degree plan must have been previously approved by Undergraduate Studies or the Graduate School. We strongly encourage you to contact the appropriate content manager below if you have questions regarding proposed changes to degree plans.
Undergraduate Degree Plan Pages
Be advised that we have restructured each undergraduate degree plan page in the catalog to include two tabs. Please do not forget that you must review and make changes to all Tabs on a page prior to sending a page further up workflow. The "Overview" tab covers information previously found on the traditional "Side-by-Side" degree plans submitted to Undergraduate Studies. Undergraduate Studies may have added any missing information to this "Overview" tab. The "Plan of Study" tab now contains the 4-year recommended sequence of courses to complete the degree plan. You may note significant red and green markups on these pages and tabs due to the additions, restructuring, and reformatting. Remember that you can see changes made by each level in the workflow by changing the View Changes By or review the page in its final state by selecting Hide/Show Changes.
The Inclusion of Pictures
As part of our ongoing initiative to improve and make our catalog more engaging for students, we are now working with Marketing on the inclusion of images in the catalog. We encourage divisions to submit pictures; please follow the picture guidelines. If images are not submitted by the component, Marketing will select images from the TWU image archives, if appropriate images are available.
Things to Remember
- Please use either a Firefox or Chrome browser to log into the system and make edits or approve changes. Contact the Service Desk at x81-3971 If you need Firefox or Chrome installed on your TWU computer.
- The organization and formatting of the catalogs have been uniformly developed. Please do not change the formatting already present in headers or on the pages. If you think a formatting change is needed, please contact the appropriate content support staff below.
- The catalogs are the location that much of our official information for students is centralized. Please make sure that all information for which your division is responsible is current and accurate. As part of the migration to the new T4 web platform, some information previously housed on individual TWU webpages has been removed, and students are redirected to the catalog with links.
- The catalog is a digital environment. Therefore, you are no longer limited due to space allotment or printing costs. Please provide comprehensive information in the catalogs as needed.
- Don't forget to make changes or review all Tabs on a catalog page before sending the page through workflow.
- Course descriptions are inserted into the catalog directly from our Student Information System. All course information changes must be approved by the Curriculum Committee or OEVP. Please double-check all course information in the "Courses" tab on your main program catalog page (if applicable) and notify Scott Martin with any course information that needs to be corrected.
- Faculty information is entered manually by OEVP. Please check all faculty information on the "Faculty" tab on your main program catalog page (if applicable) and notify Scott Martin with any faculty information that needs to be changed. He will review the faculty member's official credentials and make the necessary corrections.
Should you have questions about the catalogs, please contact:

QVC and Home Shopping Network, the two most prominent home shopping networks, are merging to form a new retail juggernaut as part of an all-stock deal valued at about $2.1 billion. Under the agreement, QVC's parent firm, Liberty Interactive, the holding company founded by media mogul John C. Malone, is expected to buy the remaining 62 percent of HSN that it does not already own. The entity would then combine under QVC Group, but HSN would continue as a separate brand.
The transaction is set to be finalized by the end of the year, pending regulatory and shareholder approval. It would create the largest television commerce company in the world, with $14 billion dollars in revenue, and become the third-largest e-commerce company in North America behind only Amazon.com and Walmart.
The post QVC to Buy Rival Home Shopping Network appeared first on Programming Insider.

World's prettiest castles part 1
The Alhambra
Granada, Spain
Gone are the days of kings and queens ruling the populace from on high (in most of the world,
anyway). But while many monarchs have fallen, their palaces remain as permanent — and beautiful —
testaments to their rulers' transient power. From the fairy-tale spires of German castles to the delicate
wooden eaves of Japanese feudal strongholds, these royal dwellings have prevailed long after their
original residents abandoned them. We've rounded up 10 inspiring castles that captivate travelers
with their stunning architecture and fascinating royal histories.
Matsumoto Castle
Matsumoto, Japan
Built in 1504 during the Sengoku (Japan's civil war period), Matsumoto Castle was originally designed
as a small fortress. It wasn't until Japan's unification under the Tokugawa shogunate in the early 17th
century that Matsumoto Castle was refashioned into the three-turreted structure we see today.
Matsumoto was built to withstand enemy attack, but by the time it was assembled around 1595,
Japan's wars were drawing to a close. Matsumoto was never attacked, which is probably why its 95-
foot-tall tower is Japan's longest-standing inner tower. Visitors to Matsumoto — which sits about 44
miles southwest of Nagano in central Japan — can marvel at the castle's black walls and swooping,
tiered eaves that earned it the nickname Crow Castle (Karasu-jo in Japanese). Plus, a peek out the
fifth- or sixth-floor windows affords sweeping vistas of the surrounding mountains. Meanwhile, the
landscaped grounds below burst with gorgeous cherry, azalea and wisteria blossoms in the spring.
Château de Versailles
Versailles, France
When French King Louis XIII originally established Château de Versailles in 1631, it was just a
hunting lodge situated about 15 miles west of Paris. It was his son, King Louis XIV, who expanded
Versailles into a sprawling palace complex between 1661 and 1710. Each king who lived at
Versailles added his own personal touch to the palace. In the 1670s, Louis XIV installed the
resplendent Hall of Mirrors, with its intricate glasswork and chandeliers. And in 1774, Louis XVI gave
his wife Marie Antoinette an expansive private estate, tucked away in Versailles' lush gardens. The
French monarchy remained at Versailles until 1789, when an uprising connected to the French
Revolution forced the regents to flee to Paris. In the years that followed the Revolution, Versailles
served many purposes, acting as a lavish retreat for Napoleon Bonaparte, a French history museum
(opened by King Louis-Philippe in 1837) and the staging ground for the Treaty of Versailles. Today,
the palace is one of France's top tourist sites, luring millions of visitors each year.
Catherine Palace
Pushkin, Russia
When he commissioned this architectural wonder for his wife, Catherine I, in 1717, Russian Tsar Peter
the Great envisioned Catherine Palace to be a modest, two-story affair. However, visitors to this
enormous blue, white and gold structure in Pushkin (situated about 20 miles south of St. Petersburg)
will tell you there is nothing modest about it. That's because Peter's daughter, Empress Elizabeth of
Russia, had the entire palace redesigned in 1743 in an effort to create a structure extravagant enough
to rival Versailles. The result: a 1,066-foot-long Rococo-style fortress featuring a stucco facade
gilded with more than 220 pounds of gold. The palace's interior is just as grand. Its Great Hall, or
Hall of Light, comprises nearly 10,764 square feet. Meanwhile, the palace's famous Amber Room that
was once adorned with nearly 12,000 pounds of amber gems. When Empress Elizabeth's niece,
Catherine II (Catherine the Great), ascended the Russian throne in 1762, she remodeled the palace
once again. Catherine found her aunt's tastes to be outdated, referring to the palace's showy
flourishes as "whipped cream." Catherine II implemented the less-gaudy Classical style, which is best
exhibited in the symmetrical lines of the Green Dining Room and the Blue Drawing Room.
Neuschwanstein Castle
Schwangau, Germany
Commissioned in 1868, Neuschwanstein Castle was built to serve as German King Ludwig II's
secluded Bavarian retreat. However, on the eve of the king's mysterious death nearly 18 years after
the first brick of his domicile was laid, the mountaintop castle was far from completion — much of it
was still shrouded in scaffolding. Construction on Neuschwanstein continued until 1892, though the
architect simplified many of Ludwig's more ambitious designs. But the castle is far from simplistic:
The Romanesque Revival spires and turrets seem as though they were lifted directly from a fairy tale.
(In fact, Neuschwanstein inspired Sleeping Beauty's Castle at Disneyland.) Nowadays, Neuschwanstein
Castle welcomes 1.4 million visitors a year, many of whom make the roughly 75-mile drive
southwest from Munich to wander its halls.

Amsterdam, 9 September 2013 - An international survey of over 300 senior in-house lawyers, conducted for Control Risks by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU), reveals companies have much to do to stamp out corruption within their businesses and ensure they do not fall foul of the increasingly tough stance adopted by regulators.
The survey reveals that:
Only 50% of companies have procedures in place to check the background and reputation of business associates in local and foreign markets, despite the known risks. This "due diligence" process is regarded by law enforcement as a vital measure to prevent corruption.
Just 50% of global companies have policies banning 'facilitation payments' to suppliers and government agencies.
37% do not have a clause in contracts with sub-contractors and consultants forbidding bribes being paid on the company's behalf.
International attitudes to facilitation payments may be changing, but companies can find themselves operating in an awkward transition period where there remains no clear consensus on how to deal with them. Because of inadequate internal processes, companies continue to be vulnerable to employees paying bribes without their knowledge. Companies are also insufficiently prepared should they be required to conduct a corruption investigation.
But bribery risks remain very real. Almost half of respondents thought it was possible, somewhat or very likely that they would need to investigate a suspected violation of anti-bribery laws in the next two years.
Commenting on the survey's findings, Walter Stefels, Managing Director of Control Risks in Amsterdam, said:
"Corruption is one of the most significant challenges for international business. Organisations today find themselves under ever-greater scrutiny, not only from regulators, but also from the media, their customers, clients and employees who are demanding that they be able to demonstrate that they operate ethically and with integrity. Yet, despite tougher anti-corruption legislation being enforced ever more rigorously, standards of governance remain at best inconsistent.
"This is a challenging world for business - good companies may wish to comply with their countries' anti-corruption laws, but are disadvantaged by competitor companies not playing by the rules. But the impact of not having proportionate anti-corruption policies in a company can be severe – threatening their reputation and operations."
Prevention: more work is needed
Many companies are risking their reputations by not implementing internal procedures to prevent the use of bribery by employees. Responses to the survey suggest that there may be major gaps in the anti-corruption initiatives that companies are introducing. Only 40% of respondents currently have whistleblowing lines where employees can make confidential reports on concerns relating to corruption.
Companies can no longer claim ignorance of a third party paying bribes on their behalf if they have done nothing to prevent such malpractice in a high-risk environment. This makes it all the more surprising that only half of respondents expect to increase their investment in mitigating bribery and corruption risk in coming years.
The biggest concern: pressure to pay
The majority of respondents cited small 'operational' bribes as the main cause for concern. By contrast, less than a third referred to the 'classic' corruption risks associated with winning business, such as demands for bribes to secure contracts. Resisting demands for small bribes requires a combination of concerted top-level leadership, and day-to-day ground-level determination and ingenuity. This is likely to be a major challenge for years to come, which justifies its rank on the corporate agenda.
Suspected violations: would you 'self -report'?
When companies come across evidence that an employee may have paid a bribe, they need to decide whether to disclose the incident to the authorities and, if so, when. The majority of respondents said they were now more likely to self-report to regulators if they came across a suspected bribery case involving an employee than they would have done in the past. Just over half of respondents said that, if a suspected bribery violation came to their attention, they would report their suspicions to the regulators first – even if the details were uncertain – and then conduct the investigation.
About the survey
In April 2013, Control Risks and the EIU conducted a survey among general counsels and senior in-house lawyers from some of the world's largest companies. The 316 respondents were asked how they assess integrity risks, how they prepare employees to resist corruption, and how they manage corruption investigations.

The 21 September 1999 Chi-Chi, Taiwan, earthquake of magnitude MW = 7.6 (ML = 7.3) severely deformed the Earth's crust in the central Taiwan region. The earthquake created an 85-km-long surface rupture along the Chelungpu fault. The epicenter was located at 23.85°N, 120.81°E, near the southern end of the rupture zone. Three-dimensional displacements of 285 geodetic control stations were determined in this study from Global Positioning System (GPS) observations collected before and after the earthquake. The detailed surface displacement field shows that individual stations are vertically uplifted by up to 4 m and displaced horizontally by up to 9 m, with the largest displacement occurring near the northern end of the ruptured thrust fault. The azimuth of the surface displacement field is approximately parallel to the direction of tectonic convergence of the Eurasian and Philippine Sea plates. The maximum three-dimensional displacement of 9.9 m is among the largest fault movements ever measured for modern earthquakes.

Leading Marine Geophysical Company
Petroleum Geo-Services (PGS) was founded in Norway in 1991, with two seismic ships and some highly innovative ideas on how to reshape the industry. Today we share the same drive to innovate as inspired our founders, though the team is bigger with 16 offshore seismic vessels and 35 offices worldwide, employing more than 70 nationalities. The opening of the Houston office was one of the first major undertakings by PGS in 1991 and ever since has formed an integral part in the success of the company. The company now has a presence in 25 countries with further major regional centers (in addition to Houston) in London and Singapore. The company headquarters is in Oslo, Norway.
PGS concentrates on marine geophysics and offers a broad range of products including seismic and electromagnetic services, data acquisition, processing, reservoir analysis/interpretation and multi-client library data. We help the oil companies of Houston and worldwide to find oil and gas reserves offshore.
Leadership in HSEQ is one of our Core Values. We strive to establish and maintain best practice HSEQ culture throughout PGS. Our vision is that PGS will be best in class in HSEQ in the worldwide geophysical industry with zero injury to people and no damage to the environment. To achieve this we will work together and take responsibility for the Health, Safety, Security of ourselves and others, to minimize our impact on the Environment and ensure best Quality in products and services.
PGS—A Clearer Image
A clear and unambiguous image of the reservoir is the cornerstone to successful exploitation of an oil or gas asset. Many factors contribute to the quality of a seismic image but these are the main ones:
The physical properties of the Earth
A properly planned and executed seismic survey
Selecting the best technology to meet the geological challenges at the target
Matching acquisition parameters and subsequent data processing parameters
The quality of the input determines the quality of the output. Proprietary and exclusive technology such as our Ramform vessels and our GeoStreamer
acquisition technology reduce the compromises made in exploration. High density, broadband seismic data provides the best platform for high fidelity processing and imaging.
PGS specializes in survey design, acquisition and processing and our dedicated and innovative teams work continuously to overcome the challenges posed by complex geological features.
Our Community
Across the globe, PGS seeks opportunities to enhance the communities in which we operate. In the Houston area we are actively supporting nonprofit organizations to help build the future of our community.
Within PGS our core values are common guidelines for the whole company. In Houston one of the main goals of our Social Committee is to raise social consciousness through charitable and volunteer activities through a variety of organizations such as The Sunshine Kids, Bike Build and the United Way. In addition, PGS is involved locally with Commit for Life Blood Drives and Fort Bend Habitat for Humanity and Red Cross.
These are just a few of the organizations the PGS employees help benefit throughout the year. The employees take pride in participating in these activities along with their families to enhance PGS' community presence and support in Houston.
Besides all the hard work the employees put into these organizations, the PGS Houston Social Committee offer the employees and their families fun time away from the office to meet and interact across business units and to strengthen the family unit.

My kids call this tree The Whomping Willow. Ever since we found it a couple months ago tucked away in the corner of a park where no one noticed it, we've felt the need to give it more attention. It's quite incredible, as you can see. I told the kids about how I used to have a favorite climbing tree that had the perfect fork in it for sitting, where I would escape to read books. It's long willow branches hung down almost to the ground, hiding me from view, and my branch hung out slightly over a pond. I would stare up into the branches and leaves far above, day dreaming my big dreams for life. All kids need such a place. This one's a bit too far away from us to visit it often enough, but the times we have been there have been magical. I specifically wanted to go this time to try to get some pictures to print big for a couple empty frames I have. I let them dress themselves, not worrying about color since my vision for these was black and white. And my only instructions to them were to play.

Game of Thrones season 8 to premiere in 2019; director line-up to include show veterans, confirms HBO
New York: Game of Thrones is taking a year off, US cable network HBO announced on Thursday (4 January), confirming the widely-held understanding that one of history's most popular shows would not wrap until 2019.
The final season of the show will feature veterans of the show behind the scenes when it airs in 2019.
HBO said that David Benioff, DB Weiss, David Nutter and Miguel Sapochnik will direct and Benioff and Weiss along with Bryan Cogman and Dave Hill will write the episodes. They will collaborate on the six-episode, eighth and last season.
Weiss and Benioff have been co-creators, executive producers and showrunners for every season of the hit show. The others have all had roles creating the mythical world of author George RR Martin.
When season seven ended late last year, an all-time high of 12.1 million viewers tuned in. An additional 4 million caught the episode on streaming channels.
This year-long gap will be the longest wait ever for fans desperate to know which character ends up in the coveted Iron Throne.
The news was largely welcomed by the entertainment press, with critics satisfied that the lay-off would mean a higher-quality final season.
Reports first began circulating in summer 2017 that GoT might skip 2018 and Sophie Turner, one of its stars, revealed in a recent interview she didn't expect the series to return this year.
"As the biggest hit in HBO's history, one the subscription service hoped to continue for additional seasons, keeping the show around a while longer isn't a bad thing," wrote Entertainment Weekly's James Hibberd.
"Also, with season seven contending for Emmy awards in 2018 due to its summer launch last year, HBO can focus its GoT promotional efforts on its Emmy campaign rather than launching a new season."
Starring Kit Harington, Emilia Clarke, Peter Dinklage and numerous other big names, Game of Thrones tells the story of noble families vying for control of the Iron Throne, all the while keeping one eye on the "White Walkers" leading hordes of the undead in an invasion from the North.
The show, which has more Emmy Awards than any other narrative series and pulls in more than 20 million US viewers per episode, moved beyond George RR Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire novels in season six.
Showrunners David Benioff and DB Weiss announced in 2016 it would finish with 13 episodes spread over a final two seasons. A seven-episode seventh season hit screens last summer and the final run will extend over just six episodes.

Well then… where do I start? I've had a busy few months and as such I've missed a few reviews one of which was the previous issue of Critical Hit. That was a dosey of an issue… until I read this issue. Holy shit doesn't even begin to describe the events here and I will do my best to keep it spoiler free because it really is an issue you need to read for yourself.
What I've really liked about this new series is that aside from the message about animal cruelty, Sarah and Jeanette have been able to develop a friendship. In this issue, it becomes more than that though. They become partners in crime and dare I say family to one another.
The issue begins with them still locked in the shipping container preparing to fight for their lives. Sarah manages to move the desk in front of the opening so when drunken asshole #1 comes back to finish them off he has a hard time getting in. Problem is Sarah's brought a knife to a gun fight.
The other part of the story is a flashback of when Sarah and Jeanette began working together and really when they became friends. It serves as just that because there really isn't much else to gleam from it other than a phobia of Jeanette's.
The meat and potatoes of the issue happens in the present and a bigger story unfolds. I mean a much bigger story. Like, holy shit, where can this story possibly be going from here!?! I liked the ending. It was a perfect transition from this arc into what's potentially the next arc.
A lot of that came from the art. The flawless overlay of the narration on top of Jonathan Brandon Sawyer's artwork was like a TV drama transition. The art for this series in general has been very strong with rich backgrounds and plenty of facial expressions to sell the intense moments to the reader. The line work is clean and crisp and the coloring never drowns that out. The coloring is rich and overall clean. It might not make any sense, but its smooth looking. I don't know how else to describe that, but Doug Garbark does a great job.
This issue is really good. I wish that it hadn't focused as much on the past, but really that's a minor issue. The story has severe consequences for the series and there are elements added here that are not only interesting, but have me on the edge of my seat. I want to see how this plays out. I want to see what the mindset for our two protagonists will be after this issue. How will they change? What will they do next? Will they still be recognizable to us in the coming issues? I have no answers for these questions and that's why I'll be back for more.
Score: 4/5

Italian Justice Under Fire
Erich Priebke was convicted by a military court in Italy of taking part in the massacre of 335 civilians in the Ardeatine Caves near Rome in March 1944. Last week, however, the former SS officer was released by the same court on a technicality and a public uproar in both Italy and Germany ensued.
Mr. Priebke left the court a free man on Thursday. After a three-month trial the tribunal had found him guilty, but had held that his crimes were mitigated by "extenuating circumstances"; then sentencing was prevented because...

Hello loves! This week is already starting out to be a crazy one and boy is it nice to take some time to just reset, write, and get our minds back on track. Each week we like to set a goal for ourselves to try something new, find a new recipe, train a little different and just constantly surprise our bodies day after day! It's important to change up your workout and confuse your muscles, so they are like what the heck are we doing right now?!!
Lately we've been finding between teaching barre, row, spin, taking other classes, and strength/weight training at the gym our bodies have been developing faster and we've been seeing the results we've hoped for 🙂 (BIG SMILE). Don't be afraid to try a new class this week or really get down and dirty at the gym. Join the boys at the squat rack and free weights (MOVE OVER SUCKAS), check out our teaching schedule this week or even get in touch with us if you need a workout buddy! Fitness is all about supporting, motivating, and lifting each other up to get to the next level of ourselves.
With this in mind, look forward to your workouts this week, plan your meals a little earlier than usual, download some fresh new beats and be proud of your hard work. Remember to take care of your body because it's the only one you have!

Some Zhuang people have already heard the gospel but walked away because of fear of being ostracized by their village and relatives. As Christians, they would not be able to participate in their village rituals and festivities. Many of the believers are women, so there is a lack of male leadership. Trust that God will work in the hearts of men and raise male leaders as currently there is hardness in their hearts and they are not open to the gospel. They are bound in darkness and need a breakthrough.
Believers are scattered in different villages. Trust that house churches will be established in outlying areas. Visitation by the small team of local leaders is rather challenging. Pray that our Father will give them patience and determination to care for the flock.
• Pray that the believers will persevere through many persecutions, hardship and trials.
• Pray that believers will have a burden and vision to reach out to their own families and relatives.
• Pray for the spread of the Good News to the countryside. The area is vast and believers are mainly concentrated in the main town of the district; there are very few believers in the countryside.
• Pray for the local Zhuang leaders for wisdom, holiness, faith, and willingness to take risks for the Kingdom of God.
• Pray for believers who are single. The pressure from parents and society to find a spouse is very big and many of the believers fall for it and marry a nonbeliever. Pray for trust and patience. Also pray for better ways to connect with single believers from other areas.

Using a blend of 999 Fine Silver and 925 Sterling Silver I hand sculpted, textured, sanded & polished these beautiful extremely lightweight earrings. I named these my "Dove & Cross" Collection. I love what bringing the Dove of Peace and the Cross of Christ together represents. These earrings only weigh 2 grams per ear. I add a beautiful patina to bring out the texture and add 925 Sterling Silver earring hooks. Surgical Steel hooks are available at no extra charge upon request.
These earrings would be an ideal gift for the holidays, a baptism, Confirmation or any special event. They also would be a special gift when wishing someone peace, love and faith.

For holidays I am offering holiday themed gift wrapping for $2 with a hand written name tag or personal message. I can offer all holiday wrapping including Birthdays, Anniversary, Christmas, etc. Be sure to leave me a note for which holiday wrapping you desire if it is not for Christmas. At no additional charge I package all items in beautiful boxes with ribbons. Unless you wish to wrap with specific paper yourself, you can present the item in the original packaging as I also make sure there are no price tags on the item itself. These gift wrap options allow you to have the gift sent directly to the recipient.
You should never use liquid silver cleaner. LIQUID silver cleaner is very harsh and can harm the metal over time as well as remove any patinas that were put on the piece intentionally. Body oils, hairspray, perfume, makeup...just to name a few...can cause Sterling to tarnish so use mild soap and water to clean the piece after wearing. Everyone's body chemistry is different and some people can wear sterling for years without tarnishing it. I personally have high acid content so I can tarnish a chain around my neck in one day. The best way to remove tarnish is with a Moonshine Jewelry Polishing Cloth. I will be offering these for sale in the future.

Second, aside from the pop culture reference, this is just a really fun episode: plenty of action, funny dialogue, etc. Three actually laughed out loud several times, which is not normal for him (the only other shows that do this are Arrested Development and Parks & Rec), and no matter how many times I watch "Stray Dog Strut," I chuckle at the same spots, especially the scene where Ein is sitting on top of Spike's head.
Now, it does run a little slow, and we're not really told much about Ein or the lab that created him (which isn't necessary and a big part of what I enjoy about a lot of anime - they expect the audience to be able to pick up on subtle details and figure shit out themselves). And despite Hakim's reputation, he doesn't offer much of a challenge to Spike, which was a bit disappointing. But all in all, I love this episode more than any other, and if you haven't watched it, YOU SHOULD. Right now. Just go find it on the internet or something.

Storage specialist LaCie is the first peripheral maker to announce what will soon become of flood of Thunderbolt-compatible devices following yesterday's launch of Apple new MacBook Pro range.
Thunderbolt is the new name for Intel's high speed interface formerly known as Light Peak which, as the name suggests, was originally based on fibre-optic technology. The standard was shrouded in secrecy until Apple announced its inclusion on the range of premium laptops but Intel has since released some details.
Now, LaCie's Little Big Drive starts the ball rolling with a palm-sized Thunderbolt-ready external hard drive with some impressive specs.
LaCie reckons the device can deliver multiple streams of HD video and offload hours of content in minutes without compromising bandwidth and performance at speeds that previously were only available from rack mounted storage arrays.
And the company is keen to aim the drive, which has yet to be specified in terms of capacity or price, at the film industry with its voracious appetite for bigger, faster drives.
"Users will be able to edit on-set during a day of filming, and then transfer all of the assets for the edit suite within seconds," burbles the press release.
The Little Big Disk, which is the first in a range of storage solutions which will start appearing in summer 2011, can also be daisy chained for storage expansion or connecting other peripherals with the correct adaptors.
Thunderbolt technology delivers 10Gbps and runs PCI Express and DisplayPort protocols simultaneously over a single cable for connectivity to high-performance peripherals and high-resolution displays.

'He who walks with the wise grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm.' Proverbs 13:20 NIV
The story's told of a farmer who was being pestered every day by a flock of crows in his cornfield. Deciding he'd had enough, he loaded his shotgun and crawled unseen along the fencerow, determined to blow those pesky crows out of the sky. Turns out this farmer had a very sociable parrot that indiscriminately made friends with everybody, and seeing the flock of crows he flew over and joined them in an effort to be friendly. The farmer saw the crows but didn't see his parrot, so he took careful aim, fired, then jumped up and ran over to see how many crows he had shot. Lo and behold, there was his parrot lying on the ground with a broken wing and a chipped beak, but still alive. The farmer tenderly picked him up and brought him home, where his children ran out to meet him. Seeing the injured parrot, they tearfully asked, 'Daddy, what happened?' But before he could answer, the parrot spoke up: 'That's what you get for hanging out with the wrong crowd.'
You can never be at the right place, at the right time, doing the right thing, if you're with the wrong crowd. And as a parent, you need to teach this to your children. Monitor their Internet use, and warn them about predators who deliberately prowl online looking for 'friends'. Web-based horror stories of children being hurt and led astray are multiplying daily. If this sounds strong and urgent—that's because it is!

It's impossible to turn on the TV or surf the Web these days without hearing gloom and doom regarding our nation's economy. Question for all the lube operators out there: Are you really seeing an economic slowdown, or is it just media hype? Are your customers scared, or are they taking a more pragmatic view of economic news?
Economic Downturn?
Also, we just put the February issue of National Oil & Lube News to bed. There are a couple of really good articles you won't want to miss, including a discussion on the present and future of automotive coolant technology.
This entry was posted in Uncategorized. Bookmark the permalink.
One Response to Economic Downturn?
The quicklube business is so local, that the answer really depends on where you are. For example, the west coast and northeast have generally fared better than the middle of the country in car counts. The housing bubble in those markets may cause a larger decline in business, just as the automobile manufacturer depression in Michigan has killed quicklubes there. Competitive conditions also control this. If you are in a market that has an oversupply of low price providers, such as Wal-Mart, squeezed consumers may choose this avenue instead of the local quicklube.

It's Thursday and that means the sun has risen on a whole new batch of films that are hitting cinemas today.
This week it's the sequel to last year's smash-hit comedy Bad Moms, with A Bad Moms Christmas, Thai film Bad Genius, Aussie RomCom Three Summers and My Little Pony: The Movie under the microscope.
A Bad Moms Christmas (3 Stars)
Yes, the girls are back. Amy played by Mila Kunis, Kiki by Kristen Bell, and Karla played by the hilarious Kathryn Hahn and it's the countdown to Christmas.
It's a busy time in any household and there's one thing to up the ante: Enter the Moms' Moms.
Christine Baranski is Amy's mother, Sheryl Hines brought Kiki into the world, and Karla's mum is played by Susan Sarandon…what a time of joy and celebration.
You don't have to be a clairvoyant to figure out what happens in this film, and if you thought the original film was rude, crude and raunchy – well you're absolutely right – and so is this.
It's very very naughty and even the little kids have potty mouths.
But it is funny, very funny. And it will make the first pick for a girls' night out.
A Bad Moms Christmas is written by the blokes behind The Hangover and is full of gender generalisations and silly stuff.
Bad Genius
This Thai move is getting rave reviews and is a huge hit in many Asian countries, including China, making it the most internationally successful Thai movie ever.
Bad Genius is based on a true story of an ingenious exam cheating scheme.
It was shot in Thailand and Australia.
Three Summers
This Aussie RomCom written and directed by Ben Elton, is set in Western Australia at a fictitious music festival.
It features an eclectic cast of actors including Magda Szubanski, Michael Caton, Deborah Mailman, Jacqueline McKenzie and John Waters.
Loving Vincent
Also out today, an animated retelling of the life of Vincent van Gogh.
Here's the thing – each of the film's 65,000 frames is an oil painting created using the same technique employed by the famous, troubled, brilliant artist.
It's an incredible film that's won all sorts of awards.
My Little Pony: The Movie
And then there's this animated, fantasy, musical, movie based on the My Little Pony TV series.
Look, I tried to watch this but had a whole lot of trouble understanding the complexities of the plot and the basic premise in actual fact.
You will definitely need to take someone very young along to 'please explain'.
My Little Pony is cantering into cinemas today.

Garnishment of Wages Blog Series Part 2 of 3 - How to Stop a Wage Garnishment
2 comments:
Hi there! great stuff here, I'm glad that I drop by your page and found this very interesting. Thanks for posting. Hoping to read something like this in the future! Keep it up!ReplyDelete
As a collection tactic, the IRS/State often imposes a wage garnishment, which means that they literally take money out of every paycheck – often enough seriously jeopardizing an individual's lifestyle and making it impossible to maintain the same standard of living.
The negative effect of a tax lien is that when a person fails to pay any assessment of tax, plus interest, penalties, or costs, a tax lien arises upon all property and rights to property, whether real or personal, tangible or intangible, belonging to the taxpayer. Even if the taxpayer makes partial payment, a lien will arise for the balance of the tax.
Wage garnishment, the most common type of garnishment, is the process of deducting money from an employee's monetary compensation (including salary), sometimes as a result of a court order.New Jersey Lawyer

Norwegian Wood (film)
It's easy to have bad ideas. One such idea was "Let's make Norwegian Wood into a movie!"
Norwegian Wood, Haruki Murakami's breakout novel, has in my uninformed opinion influenced Japanese cinema culture in the 24 years since it was first published. The nostalgic student romance genre has been essentially perfected as an art by a long series of directors – some distinctive, some interchangeable, but many worthwhile.
The same can't be said of Anh Hung Tran, who has taken only the bad lessons and excesses of so much student melodrama and fashioned them into a movie that is not only superficial, but deeply unsatisfying. I don't see how anyone who has read the book could be pleased with this result but, more than that, it is a failure of the cinematic form. Dull and soporific when it isn't being irritating and shrill, there's nothing here to recommend.

Santa Barbara, California (PRWEB) February 11, 2017
Santa Barbara Chocolate truffles and tempting pralines, assembled deliciously in a lovely box can serve as the perfect gift for the hard to buy friend or colleague. Gourmet chocolate is the best gift in the world of gift giving. Chocolate is always a welcome gift year round.
Chocolate is a universal symbol of appreciation and celebration. Here are six reasons to give chocolate as a gift.
Perfect Portions
A box of chocolate usually contains perfect portion sizes of a variety of chocolates. Nuts, truffles, dark chocolate or caramel all in one box. Enjoy just enough to keep a guilty conscious at bay and save the rest for later. Share with loved ones and office colleagues to touch emotions.
Unique & High Quality
Gourmet chocolates are perfect because it presents the idea of uniqueness and high quality. A box of gourmet chocolate is appealing, at times artistic, and presentable. Each individual piece of chocolate is like a present itself. Unique in a way because even when all chocolates are eaten, the box leaves a lasting memory.
Chocolate Nuts and Fruit Gift Box.
Sign of Luxury
Neatly packed and stylish, a chocolate box in an attractive packaging is alluring, to say the least. Chocolate has an aura of luxury and indulgence and conveys the idea of pampering and desire to uplift the mood. It is a way of giving the gift of experience... a box of chocolates from a city or country is like a luxury vacation in a box. Chocolate boxes are filled with the chocolate flavors of the region thereby offering the gift recipient a mini vacation. Santa Barbara Chocolatier Jason Vishnefske says he really tries to capture the flavor of California in their assorted chocolate box: "We source dried fruits and nuts from local organic growers when making our chocolate truffles. When the season is right we will use fresh persimmon or even avocado in our candy making recipes."
A gift for Many Occasions
A box of chocolate is a great way to celebrate any occasion in life. It can be given on graduations, wedding ceremonies, promotion, Valentine's Day, birthdays, New Year celebration or can simply be given to show appreciation. Chocolate is a universal symbol of a gift and also looks great when paired with any celebration or milestone. Bring a box of chocolates with a bouquet for Valentine's Day or hide an engagement ring underneath a truffle in the box.
Age Appropriate gift
Gifting chocolates to an elderly person or a young kid is appropriate with no social taboo. Don't worry about personal preferences like with wine or perfume. Gourmet chocolates bring delight to both children and adults alike when opening the lid of a beautiful assortment. Simply put, a box of scrumptious chocolate can impress regardless of age.
Chocolate is Healthy
Unless there are dietary restrictions, chocolate, especially dark chocolate, is healthy if eaten in moderation. It's a scientifically proven fact that eating chocolate releases hormones that uplifts mood. Dark chocolate is full of healthy perks like antioxidants which could help prevent heart diseases and strokes. So a box of organic dark chocolate truffles or high-quality assorted chocolates has ample health perks to offer besides being delightful.
To see a range of organic chocolates please check out the selection of Santa Barbara gourmet chocolate boxes. Hand created to bring joy and impress with a high quality and flavorful tasting experience. Homemade chocolate truffles by artisan Santa Barbara chocolatier is the perfect fit for any occasion as it contains 16 varieties of assorted truffles to entice all senses.

I admit, I love all things Tim, but with the wedding fast approaching, I'm really trying to rein in my craft spend. So, while I keep seeing these wonderful blogland posts on the new Distress Paints, I just can't bring myself to purchase them when I have a whole rack of acrylic paints languishing in the studio! And though I'm sure DPs are magical, I thought I'd see what I could do with those abandoned ordinary, non-Tim paints...
The Details:
- That's right, I'm starting with the details before even showing you the end result...I'm building drama! LOL! Plus, I actually remembered to get the camera out while in the process of creating, not just at the end.
- I've seen a lot of stamping and background work with DPs, so I decided that was a perfect way to start my paint experimentation. I made my card base from spring moss stock, then added some "swoops" of yellow ochre using a make-up sponge (I love using make-up sponges for paint because they do a great job and are cheap enough that I just toss 'em when I'm done).
- Next layer was a postcard background stamped in buttermilk. I also lightly swiped the edges and corners with buttermilk.
- Paint gives the image such dimension and texture...I love it!
- Final paint layer was some rouge fly-speckling using a toothbrush. The more water you add to your paint, the larger the speckles will be. Always test on a scrap before flicking onto your project.
- Something I haven't seen DPs used for (yet) is coloring ribbon. I didn't have the right shade of ribbon to match my card, so I decided to dye my own using yellow ochre acrylic paint and water. It turned out lovely! At first, it's really matte and heavy looking with the paint pigment.
- But then, when you squeeze it in a paper towel, the distressed look comes through and you get highs and lows of color. It has a softer, more chalk-pastel finish than when using ink pigment. Perfect for spring...reminds me of the finish on an eggshell.
- I had this perfect Easter image from K&Co. with a not-so Easter-y sentiment. "You're invited"? Seems like an odd choice on their part, but I can fix it!
- I punched a photo label from cream cardstock and stamped "Easter" in Crushed Olive DI. After tattering the edges with a Tim Holtz paper distresser, I used the same make-up sponge to add color to the edges. It's subtle because I didn't re-apply any paint to the sponge, I just used what was already on it. I then mounted the finished label over the unwanted sentiment using foam tape for dimension.

Southern Province Local Government Department (SPLGD) has claimed Rs. 47 million from the Provincial Councils and Local Government Ministry to facilitate the increased number of people's representatives to be elected for the local government bodies in the province at the forthcoming local government election, Southern Province Local Government Commissioner (SPLGC) Ranil Wickramasekara said.
The existing 584 local government representatives of 49 local bodies of the South will increase to 1074 subsequent to the results of the local government election on February 10, the Commissioner said.
The SPLGC Commissioner said many of the provincial Local Government Institutions could not afford the additional cost.
The meeting chambers of the local bodies have to be expanded and other infrastructure facilities including seating capacities, public address systems, building renovations and even new structures at some institutions must be provided to facilitate the high number of new representatives.
The additional funds were needed to facilitate 29 low income local bodies, he said.
Forty nine Local bodies in the area had only 584 representatives and the number will be doubled after the elections.
"I have already instructed all the secretaries of the Local Government institutions to provide facilities for people's representatives at the next election, Wickramsinghe sad.

96kHz/24-bit FLAC, Harmonia Mundi HMC 902183.84 (supplied by www.eclassical.com)
Early, middle and late period sonatas are prefaced by the three sets of variations on this release, complementary to the violin sonatas with Faust/Melnikov [HFN Yearbook 2010, 'Album Choice']. It should appeal to those unable to come to terms with the use of fortepiano in the Isserlis/Levin Hyperion cycle. Although Melnikov played a Graff fortepiano in Beethoven trios with Faust/Queyras [HFN Oct '14], here he exploits the full dynamic range and colour of a modern grand while scrupulously observant of score markings. The cellist produces a rather dry, clean sound – even in Op.105:1 and 2 you are aware that Beethoven gives the 'lion's share' to the piano! In the Op.69 scherzo both players sound all the tied notes as 'echoes' (a point much debated). With close sound in perfect balance these recordings are an absolute joy to hear. CB
Sound Quality: 95%
Hi-Fi News Lab Report
This is a refreshingly true and clean 96kHz/24-bit recording with piano harmonics extending a little beyond 10kHz and the cello almost up to 30kHz before decaying into a very quiet noise floor, free of digital spuriae. PM
