Laptops Snowden Took To Hong Kong, Russia Were A 'diversion'
It is also much more difficult for the state to simply increase by fiat. While the government can boost government wages or increase pensions (as it has done repeatedly over the past several years), its just a lot more difficult for it to increase the total output of the industrial sector. Worryingly, via the always useful FRED , the total production of Russian industry has been essentially flat since the beginning of 2012. Does this mean that the whole house of cards is going to collapse? No. Virtually all of Eastern Europe is going through a period of severe economic weakness. Poland, everyones favorite post-communist wunderkind, grew by 1.9% in 2012 and is forecast to grow by as little as 1.1% in 2013. Slovakia, which was also lauded for its determined economic reforms and its export-led growth model, had a similarly poor performance. It grew by 1.8% in 2012 and is forecast to grow by about 1% in 2013. So, even in its currently weakened state, Russias economy is actually performing better than those of many other countries in the region. Nonetheless, continued stagnation of industrial production will eventually become a pretty serious problem. Oil prices arent going to increase forever, and even if Russia never become an export powerhouse if it wants to play an important international role it cannot have an industrial sector that is permanently frozen in early 2012. The Russian government has actually been following a very prudent and inflation-adverse monetary policy, but it has shown almost no interest in the sort of supply-side reforms that would spur investment and, eventually, improvements in productivity and production.
There have been structural improvements, but the specific corporate governance scandals this year have been striking, Westman, whose firm manages about $4 billion and is the worlds largest Russia-focused money manager, said today by phone from London . Its the worst year since after the crisis in 2009. Prosperity and investors including Templeton Emerging Markets Group and Allianz Investments are contesting a move by OAO Rosneft (ROSN) , the worlds biggest publicly traded oil producer, not to buy out minority shareholders in oil producer TNK-BP. President Vladimir Putins government is struggling to lure foreign investors to counter capital outflows due to corporate governance disputes this year at TNK-BP, OAO Pharmstandard, Russias biggest drugmaker, and OAO Uralkali, the worlds largest potash producer. Russias benchmark Micex Index (MOSBIRZ) trades at the cheapest levels of all major emerging-market indexes. 27 after Rosneft CEO Igor Sechin said his company may buy back minority shareholders at a premium. Until then, Sechin had resisted minority investors demands, saying at Rosnefts annual general meeting in April that Rosneft was not a charity fund. Disappointing Offer Rosneft has approved a buyout at 67 rubles a common share and 55 rubles for preferred shares in RN Holding. Sberbank CIB analysts said the offer was disappointing for investors as they estimated Rosneft paid about $3.70 a share, or about 120 rubles a share, to London-based BP Plc (BP/) and a group of Russian billionaires in a $55 billion cash-and-share deal. Westman said Prosperity hasnt received the offer. We will want to see a buyout offer that is higher, but some investors had given up and didnt think we get anything, he said. Alexander Branis, chief investment officer at Moscow-based Prosperity, advises the Kremlin on corporate governance and will shortly submit proposals on mandatory offers for minority shareholders, according to Westman. As part of our work trying to make Moscow into an international finance center, we are coming up with proposals to strengthen the hand of minority shareholders, he said, without going into specific details.
Russia refuses to bail two Britons held for Greenpeace protest
Freelance videographer Kieron Bryan and Greenpeace activist Phillip Ball, who, like the others, face piracy charges, had appealed against an order that they be held through late November. The court, in the northern port city of Murmansk, has already denied bail to four Russians held for the September 18 protest in which a Greenpeace ship was boarded by security forces close to an oil rig in the Arctic. The piracy charges – punishable by up to 15 years' jail- appear aimed at sending a message that Moscow will not tolerate attempts to disrupt its development of the resource-rich Arctic that Greenpeace says could destroy a pristine environment. Other countries and companies are seeking to exploit Arctic energy resources and face similar concerns from environmentalists. A Finnish minister resigned on Friday over a row about a Greenpeace protest last year. Putin has said the activists were not pirates but that they had violated international law. The head of the Kremlin's advisory body on human rights has said he would ask prosecutors to withdraw the piracy charges. Kumi Naidoo, head of Greenpeace International, has written to President Vladimir Putin asking to meet him and offering to stand as security in Russia for the release of the activists on bail. Putin's spokesman said the letter, published in Western media on Wednesday, had not yet arrived at the Kremlin, and said it unlikely to affect the legal process. "(Putin) probably cannot get involved in a discussion about the investigative activity that is taking place," Dmitry Peskov told reporters. MINISTER RESIGNS Investigators have said more charges will be pressed against some protesters after drugs and other suspect items were found on the boat, the Arctic Sunrise. Greenpeace denies there were illegal items aboard. Greenpeace, whose activists tried to scale the Gazprom-owned Prirazlomnaya rig, says the protest was peaceful and calls the piracy charges absurd and unfounded. Those arrested include American, Argentinian, Australian, Brazilian, Canadian, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, Italian, New Zealand, Swedish, Swiss, Polish, Turkish and Ukrainian citizens.
Snowden, 30, is living in a secret location in Russia, beyond the reach of U.S. authorities who want him on espionage charges because he leaked the details of top-secret electronic spying programs to the media. He had traveled to Hong Kong in May and later, under pressure from China, flew to Moscow. U.S. officials have said that they were operating on the assumption that any classified materials downloaded by Snowden have fallen into the hands of China and Russia's spy agencies, though the officials acknowledge they have no proof of this. McGovern said Snowden made it clear at their Wednesday meeting that there was "nothing on" his laptops. The former CIA analyst had traveled to Russia to give Snowden an award for "Integrity in Intelligence." The other Americans who went with him were Coleen Rowley, a former FBI agent; Jesselyn Radack, a former Justice Department official; and Thomas Drake, a former NSA official who the U.S. government had prosecuted for allegedly leaking secrets about an NSA project called "Trailblazer." In a telephone interview from Moscow, McGovern said Snowden told him that Drake was the "model" for his decision to leak U.S. secrets. The government eventually dropped all but a relatively minor charge against Drake, to which he pleaded guilty. McGovern said Snowden had "no regrets at all and he said it very convincingly." Snowden is "well protected" but also said he "can do pretty much what I like" and can "get out and about," according to McGovern. He declined to discuss where and how they met with Snowden, but he said that they had to pass through metal detectors before the meeting and that Snowden appeared to be attended by some kind of official Russian security detail. WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange and his close collaborator Sarah Harrison, a British journalism student who has been helping Snowden, played a major role in arranging for the meeting, McGovern said. Harrison remained with Snowden as he spent several weeks in legal limbo in a Moscow airport transit zone, and stayed in Russia after he was granted temporary asylum. McGovern said that at his Moscow hotel, he met Lon Snowden, Edward's father, who traveled this week to try to see his son.

Every bride wants to look their best in their wedding pictures. As your wedding photographs will serve as the remembrance of your big day, you want to make sure you look perfect in them. Here are some tips to ensure you look great in your wedding photos and make the post production of your wedding photography a success.
Relax your Face
When you start to get nervous and anxious, your face will show it. So whenever you feel that your eyes are starting to squint, your brows furrow, and your smile stiffen, take a deep breath and relax. Close your eyes, relax your face, and let your lips fall back into place.
Practice Your Pose
Browse through a variety of bridal magazines and get some great posing ideas. After finding a series of poses you like, practice them with your photographer. Don't forget the basics: stand straight, don't look straight into the camera, and hold your arms gently away from your torso.
Smile with Your Eyes
You don't have to sport an ear-to-ear grin just to show that you're happy. During your wedding pictorial, let your eyes do the talking. If you try to hold a huge smile for too long, it'll appear forced and won't look good in pictures, so smile with your eyes.
Pictures taken on your wedding will remain part of your life forever, so it pays to take a few measures to ensure you look your best on your special day.

Swinging in Cyberspace
New software can analyze your every move. Does it help?
It used to be that bad swings were over and done with as soon as you sliced a golf ball onto the next fairway.
But in these high-tech times, you can't whiff a ball without it being captured in cyberspace forever. And you can analyze it, compare it, measure it and even get instant reads on improper trajectories and flawed impact with just a mouse click.

Through out AllSides.com, you will find references to the media bias ratings of sources, including online news sources, authors and more. Since there is no such thing as unbiased news, it is essential to reveal media bias as much as possible in order to better inform all of us so we can better evaluate what we are reading and better understand the topics — and each other.
You can see a full list of our media bias ratings on the AllSides Media Bias Ratings page. Media bias is rated using a patented process to identify and display the average judgement of Americans. The ratings are fluid and updated as new information is assessed.
On a media source's page, you'll see how we assigned the media bias rating, which methods influenced our rating, and how confident we are in our rating of that source's bias. To see the media source page, just click on the name of the media source (publication, author, etc) with its rating - we show this throughout the site. It looks like this:
The Basis of the Media Bias Rating
The rating you see on a source's AllSides Bias Rating page is based on the methods listed with a check mark next to them.
- Blind Survey: If this is checked, the bias rating is driven by the results of our blind surveys. AllSides collects and analyzes data from blind bias surveys of media sources. The survey asks readers to rate the bias of news without knowing the news source or author they are rating. AllSides normalizes this data, making sure that the audience accurately reflects the social and political diversity of the nation. This prevents "gaming" (when someone or a group tries to unfairly impact the ratings) or giving too much influence to any segment of the population. This provides the most robust evaluation of the political leanings or bias available, and is at the core of the patented AllSides Bias Ratings™ methodology.
- Third Party Data: If this is checked, the bias rating has been influenced by third-party research or data that AllSides has determined to be credible. Examples of this include academic research by UCLA and well-sourced articles in Wikipedia. AllSides notes which studies or research it uses in the bias rating for each source.
Community Feedback: If this is checked, the bias rating has been influenced by votes submitted by AllSides readers. This feedback is not blind. When people rate sources in this way they can see which source they are rating and generally see how AllSides has previously rated the source and how other people have voted. Since it is not blind, it is subject to bias itself as users are influenced by their preconceived notions or other people's opinions.
The community feedback is also not normalized. In other words, the raw data has not been balanced to fairly represent the various segments and groups in America. For example, if 100% of the people who rated a source were themselves liberal, the bias ratings they would give would be very biased toward their own point of view and not America overall. A news outlet that America might on average consider "left" might instead be rated by this left group as "center" because the source more closely reflects their own views. This open-to-anyone voting system can also be "gamed" by a group of people who want to influence the outcome.
Because of these inherent biases, AllSides uses community bias ratings and feedback as a "warning system" that our current bias ratings may be off. This feedback sometimes triggers more robust blind surveys, analysis or other kinds of more robust research to sharpen the bias rating accuracy.
AllSides shows the raw votes by our users, with the first number representing the people who agree with our bias rating, and the second number represent those who disagree. We color code these for easy reference:
It is not unusual for more than half of people to disagree with the AllSides Bias Rating, but the average rating often agrees with the AllSides Bias Rating. For example, AllSides may have rated a source as "lean left" and the majority of people disagree with that rating. But more than half will rate that source as "left" and the rest will rate it as "center" or "lean right", and the average will equal "lean left", thus supporting the original AllSides rating. See notes for each source for more details.
Sometimes you will see a bias rating to the right of this community feedback indicator. This is the average rating of people who disagreed with the AllSides bias ratings and who bothered to also submit what they think the rating is (many disagree but do not rate themselves). It is not the average rating of the community at large since it does not include those who agree with the AllSides rating, those who disagree but did not rate, and is not normalized to reflect all of America (so one group can easily be over-represented, skewing the results.)
- Editorial Review: If this is checked, the AllSides editorial staff has reviewed the works of this source and their consensus on the bias for this source has influenced this rating. These reviews always include a diversity of individuals covering the range of bias from left to right. Sometimes we also do "blind" editorial reviews when our editorial staff does not know the source of the content they are rating.
- Independent Research: If this is checked, the bias rating is influenced by online research performed by AllSides. Staff may review sample content and investigate what the media and other sources, both partisan and nonpartisan, report about the political leanings of this source. This method is frequently used for initial bias ratings before stronger methods can be applied.
The Confidence Level in our Media Bias Rating
The Confidence Level on an AllSides Bias Rating page may show as Low or Initial, Medium or High, depending on how confident we are about the bias rating of the media source. We base our Confidence Level on two things:
- How many methods have been applied and which methods have been applied. The more reliable methods applied, the higher our Confidence Level. For example, we usually give more weight to our Blind Surveys and the less weight to what we call Secondary Research, which is an AllSides staff member's initial assessment of bias based on online research.
- The strength and consistency of the data. The more strength and consistency in the bias information, the higher our Confidence Level.For example, with Secondary Research, if a journalist is self-described as "conservative" and Wikipedia labels her that way too, that shows both strength and consistency. If the Community Feedback includes thousands of users, that has more impact than feedback from fewer votes. If we take academic Third Party Data into consideration in a bias rating, but the research is 20 years old, we wouldn't give it as much weight as more recent data. Or, if two of our assessment methods indicate the source is Right, but one of our methods indicates it's Left, our Confidence Level in the bias rating is lower.
We update our AllSides Bias Ratings and Confidence Levels as more data is gathered and assessed.
Unless otherwise noted, a media bias rating refers only to a source's online news articles, not on the source's opinion pieces, TV, or radio. The opinion writers from the same media source may have different bias ratings, so individual writers often are rated separately.
What does it mean for a media source to be rated right, left, or anything else?
These are subjective judgements made by people across the country. Here is our rough approximation for what the media bias ratings mean: bias ratings for left - lean left - center - lean right - right.

Can you print the value of FTPClient.getPassiveHost() immediately after that happens? Also, can you log the FTP conversation with PrintCommandListener from src/java/examples/ so we can see how the FTP server is responding to the PASV command? For FTPClient hackers: The only way I see this happening is if __passiveHost is null when the socket is created. __passiveHost is set to null by enterLocalPassiveMode() and is given a value by _openDataConnection_() by calling __parsePassiveReply() after issuing a successful pasv(). So if __parsePassiveReply() doesn't set __passiveHost, it will remain null when SocketFactory.createSocket() is called, causing Socket() to be called with a null host, which will cause the local host IP to be used. However, I don't see how __parsePassiveReply() can leave __passiveHost null without throwing an exception. Therefore, the need for the extra information. daniel -#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#- s a v a r e s e # In distant lands, I hear the call of my home. software research # Yet my work is not done.

Editor's review
Super Crossword Creator lets one create crossword puzzles quite easily. It helps in creating the words & clues. The application creates a layout, several alternates could be tried through regeneration and then printed out. Nice for recreation and as teaching aid in testing vocabulary etc for a class.
Pros: This application is absolutely a very simple application for creating a crossword puzzle. One could attempt to create these for recreation or as a teacher for creating tests of vocabulary for students in the class. Process to be followed is simple as is the interface. The fist stage is just to create a list of the words one intends to use in the puzzle along with the clues for each such word. One has options of adding a name to the puzzle and a text area for adding the name of the person attempting to solve the puzzle.
The program creates a layout with the words arranged in a crossword fashion. You could try several regeneration clicks to generate the layout you like. On print command the layout is printed out in proper fashion with the grids and the clues but without the words of course. The interface is very simple as are the icons easy to use. The puzzles can be saved as MS word documents for future use.
Cons: As more and more words are included in the puzzle in would become increasingly difficult to create the layouts automatically. Without that the fun part will go out of this exercise, besides one will need to spend a lot of time on it. Professional crossword making thus looks beyond the scope of this application.
Overall, a very easy to use application that one can use for recreational purposes. This is a 4 star candidate.

Sizing is off!!!
Bought two sets of pj's sz 7 and 8. They are so tight fitting that the sz 7 fit a 4yr old and the sz 8 was so tight on a 6 yr old who wears sz 7 or M in tea clothes that he couldn't wear them.

Really cute design
Runs a size small. Skinny in the arms and legs but very nice quality and design. My tall skinny 2yo boy actually went up 2 sizes but he's big for his age and they were long on his legs but still work for us with room to grow into them.

Faculty and administrators were encouraged to attend a Fulbright Scholar Program Workshop on Thursday, March 23rd from 12:30pm to 2:30pm. Entitled "Discover How You Can Make an Impact Abroad", this workshop allowed interested professionals to learn about opportunities to promote international education both at home and abroad.
According to the Council for International Exchange of Scholars (CIES) the Fulbright Program is a collection of scholarships and grants aimed at academic professionals that promotes international education and global understanding. This competitive program allows for individuals to teach, research, and learn in another country, funded primarily by the US government. While most recipients are American academics traveling abroad, international professional interested in studying in the US are also eligible to apply. Participants can expect to broaden their understanding of important global issues and foster a mutual understand and respect.
Millersville both encourages faculty to travel abroad and welcomes professionals from other countries as well. These individuals are guided by Fulbright Scholar Liaisons who are past participants dedicated promoting the program and helping new participants acclimate to their new surroundings. Dr. Christine Gaudry, a liaison at Millersville and Faculty Coordinator at Global Education, hosted this Fulbright Scholar Program Workshop and welcomed guest speaker Hilary Hartley.
Dr. Christine Gaudry introduces Ms. Hilary Hartley to a group of Millersville faculty, staff, and administration interested in interested in global scholarship.
Ms. Hartley, the Regional Lead for the Western Hemisphere for the Fulbright Scholar Program at the CIES, presented on options for teaching, research, and participating in other initiatives while abroad. With over 125 different countries to choose from, choosing which scholarship and location would be the most appropriate can be difficult. Ms. Harley provided a walkthrough of how best to write a successful application that is competitive with the other applicants and is best suited to individual needs. In addition to advice for potential Millersville scholars, Ms. Harley also spoke on hosting Fulbright Visiting Scholars through the Outreach Lecturing Fund and the Scholar-in-Residence Program. Both programs help to build an international presence on campus by welcoming international scholars or short-term lectures or long-term teaching respectively.
The workshop concluded with a Q&A session in which faculty, staff, and administration was able to discuss any questions or concerns that had about the program. In addition, Ms. Hartley also stayed to consult interested faculty on their individual program plans including projected proposals and specific world region of interest.
Any faculty or administration interested in the program but unable to attend the workshop should contact Global Education for more information.

The KPMG Cyber Security Challenge is a team-based competition for local public and private university students.
22 November 2016, 8:30AM - 6:00PM, MYT
The KPMG Cyber Security Challenge is a team-based competition for local public and private university students. The competition tests the cyber security skills and knowledge of the participants in reverse engineering, steganography, cryptography, programming, network analysis, infrastructure hacking, web application security, and digital forensics. The competition tests the technical, analytical, and creative skills of the students, in addition to their communication and teamwork.
KPMG in Malaysia acknowledges cyber security threats in today's fast paced and borderless technology driven environment, and the need for more skilled and knowledgeable cyber security professionals to defend our cyber shores. We believe that the Cyber Security Challenge will encourage stronger awareness of cyber security among the younger generations especially students, provide them with greater insights into cyber security, and encourage them to pursue careers as cyber security professionals.
This year's challenge will be held at The Vertical Bangsar South, on 22nd November 2016. Participation is open to all local public and private university students who are currently pursuing a computing or information technology degree.
22nd November 2016

Abarth 124 spider
This, ladies and gents, is the Abarth 124 Spider. It's the more fun-focused version of Fiat's Spider of the same name, which is what you'd hope for from the Italians' performance offshoot.
The jump in performance isn't as great as in Abarth's hot hatch models, which typically more than double the power of their 500 base car, rather it exhibits detail improvements over the Fiat 124.
So its 1.4-litre turbo petrol engine rises from 138 to 178bhp, there's more focused suspension and a limited slip-differential is fitted.

Landowners Challenge Section 6 of the Oil and Gas Act
By MOHAMMAD BASHIR
In a test case, a constitutional reference has been sought by Michael Wilson of Warner Shand Lawyers on behalf of 24 clans of Tuguba in Hides gas project to challenge the validity of Section 6 of the Oil and Gas Act (OGA) and the powers of the State to compulsorily acquire land for the benefit of outsiders under the Land Act.
The referrers who are customary land rights holders and members of 24 clans from Tuguba are seeking opinion pursuant to Section 18(1) of the Constitution on questions relating to interpretation or application of Section 32, 41, 53 and schedule 2.4.6(2) of the Constitution.
The reference states that the large Tuguba tribe owns and occupies land territory across 3 provinces which include Hela, Gulf and Western provinces and speak one language.
Of the 26 main clans and many sub-clans, the reference is made by 24 and the rest may join as parties later.
All Tugubas subscribe to the 'Gigira Laitebo', legend of the creation and the 'Laitebo' prophesy which is about the energy of light under Mt Gigira which would light the world.
Under Tuguba customary land, there are several oil and gas pools known as Hides, Juha and Angore.
Following the PNG LNG Agreement of May 22, 2008, the licencee (ExxonMobil and partners) will take out the gas under the surface of Tuguba customary land and pipe it to portion 152 to be processed for export.
The reference contends that under customary law, the primary user is notified whenever another clansman wants to use a land or the second rule is that prior consent must be given before a foreigner is allowed to use it, failing force is used to expel intruders.
The reference states that Section 6 of the OGA which deems petroleum and helium at or below the surface of Tuguba customary land as the property of the State is therefore contrary to customary law.
The referrers asserts that the definition of "land" in Section 3 of the Land Registration (Customary Land) (Amendment) Act 2009 and Article 26 of the UN Declaration on Human Rights on the rights of Indigenous People is consistent with their claim.
The Tugubas said by boycotting the signing of the Kokopo UBSA and LBBSA, they have never at any stage granted their consent to the State to award any licences under the OGA to the Licencees. Prominent Lawyer Peter Donigi's book Lifting the Veil that shrouds Papua New Guinea was described as a God-sent by the referrers.
Their leader Simon Ekanda said: "Mr Donigi has by the words in his book; shown to us what we knew in our own hearts was right. This book is now our voice - the road is now clear for us. We have accepted the solutions as recommended in the book."
"We thank Donigi for showing us how we can protect and benefit from our resources. When we get a decision in our favour we will be using the production sharing contract that is written in the book and nothing less will satisfy us," Mr Ekanda said.
He said the State and developers can agree to settle their case outside the court only if they were prepared to enter into a production sharing contract.
"We note that under the Donigi formula, PNG will earn more than K100 billion over 30 years and not K40 billion as our government says we will get.
"Is it fair that foreign companies will take out of the country about K200 billion in profits over 30 years? We think it is not," Mr Ekanda added.
Landowners Close Tari Airport
By ANDREW ALPHONSE
THE Tari airport in the Southern Highlands province was forced to close as of yesterday by angry landowners.
The National Airport Corporation (NAC) has advised all airlines not to fly into Tari for the safety of passengers and aircraft from possible landowner reprisals. However, a twin otter plane belonging to Airlines PNG that flew with explosives for Esso Highlands Ltd from Port Moresby into Tari yesterday afternoon was physically confronted by the landowners.
Esso Highlands is the subsidiary company of ExxonMobil, developer of the multi-billion kina PNG liquefied natural gas (LNG) project.
The landowners said the airline did not take heed of the forced closure and warned the pilot not to fly into Tari as of today.
THE National Airport Corporation (NAC) yesterday confirmed the closer of the Tari airport as it cannot guarantee the safety of the travelling public.
The NAC Acting Managing Director Manuai Kametan said as a responsibility body that operates and maintains airports, it had to close Tari airport because it had reason to believe that the airport was not safe.
"The safety of travellers is of paramount importance to NAC and we cannot guarantee their safety as it was too risky," Mr Kametan said.
The Chief Executive Officer Air Niugini Wasantha Kumarasiri also yesterday said the flights into Tari would also be temporally closed in compliance with the notice from the National Airports Corporation.
Mr Wasantha said the suspension of services will remain until further notice and while the airline regrets the inconvenience caused, the situation was beyond its control.
The closure of the airport was instigated by spokesman and deputy chairman of Tari airport landowners association Benson Angobe (Homaria clan), chairman Mark Mulungu, chief Luke Luya and others.
Mr Angobe said the landowners demand the State to pay them K17 million up front before they could allow the airport to be re-opened. He said K6 million of the amount is for the Piribu Kia clans while K11 million would be dispersed to the 19 affected landowner groups.
Mr Angobe said petition calling on the State to honour this payment was delivered to the Prime Minister Sir Michael Somare with copies to other senior government ministers, local MPs and relevant State authorities such as CAA chief executive officer Joseph Kintau three weeks ago in Port Moresby. Mr Angobe said their petition lapsed on October 20 and they have no option now but force the closure of the airport indefinitely until their demands are met by the State.

As a child, I loved the image that my mind conjured whenever I heard lessons or sermons on the Fruit of the Spirit. I was always able to form a vivid mental picture of a bowl overflowing with fresh produce or branches bursting with ripened fruits. Assigning actual fruits to the Holy Spirit's characteristics that should feed our lives became a poignant metaphor. Simple and childish as that may seem, for me, having an image to manipulate created a stronger connection to the verse and the depths of its meaning.
In a literal sense, and on the surface of my fruit metaphor, Goodness seems like it might be the easiest characteristic to interpret. 'Good' fruit is harvested, used, transformed and shared, while 'bad' fruit is simply avoided or discarded. This seems rather straightforward; we simply choose right versus wrong and we will achieve goodness.
As an adult, parent and more exposed Christian I know it is not that simple. Goodness is a true reflection of God's character. When we strive to be good, it goes far beyond simply following rules or doing what is considered right. In goodness, we are called to do things God's way. Maybe that requires confronting someone who works against goodness in your life or the life of those you love. Perhaps, just as we throw out inedible fruit, goodness can even mean having to separate from those who tempt us to act in an ungodly way – out of fear or malice or retribution.
Personally, I strive for a balance – one where I am constantly pruning, both the good and bad, fruit in my bowl or orchard. I take time to nurture the healthy aspects of my life so that I am an example of Christ and His love. I am cutting away the bruised areas so God and the people He has placed in my life may continue to see and use my good. Goodness should be more than just the decision between right and wrong for all of us; we should want to use the fruit of goodness inside of us to tempt others to draw nearer to God. Like the aroma of freshly baked apple pie draws family into the kitchen, may your goodness permeate all aspects of your life so that those around you feel His presence.

Homepage » Our Services » Full Service Movers
Full Service Movers
Moving-related stress involves many factors. The anxieties of relocation and the adjustment to new surroundings, along with the numerous details associated with the move that need to be taken care of on time, all contribute to our stress.
Particularly nerve-wracking is the obvious concern for our household belongings. Regardless of the transportation mode – be it truck, boat or airplane – we will do our best to ensure that our valuables are protected throughout the move and that they reach the point of destination unscathed. Wouldn't it be extremely reassuring to know that, at least as far as your cargo is concerned, you really have nothing to worry about? When you opt for full-service moving you can definitely put your mind at ease.
Choosing the full-service moving option basically means that you entrust your belongings to the professional care of your mover, from start to finish. Your mover will pack, load and haul your belongings to your new destination, and unload and unpack them upon arrival.
Before you make your choice of mover, you should know that hiring the services of a full service moving company is likely to take its toll on the overall moving cost. Indeed, the extent of your mover's involvement in the moving process affects the price. In addition to the hourly or weight-based rates charged for local and interstate moves, respectively, and the distance factor which also has direct bearing on the moving cost, a full service moving quote is also determined by the particular moving services you would like your mover to perform. If you require packing and unpacking assistance, for instance, you will be charged accordingly.
Bear in mind that the time of year is also a crucial factor when opting for full-service moving. Summer months are an extremely busy moving season. Being very much in demand, the full-service mover you hire will most probably not be open to negotiation on the price.
But don't be intimidated by the price factor. Remember that full-service moving saves you a great deal of the hassle usually involved with relocation. With your movers in charge of packing, for instance, you can rest assured that your household goods, particularly fragile and delicate items, are placed safely and securely inside the boxes and crates. And when you arrive at your new location, and are both flustered and confused by the events of moving day, think of how helpful it is to have your movers unload and unpack for you, and literally take a load off your hands.
If you rent a moving truck and decide to haul your belongings on your own to your new destination, you will most probably be required to obtain suitable permits and licenses. Moreover, driving a large vehicle to unfamiliar surroundings can be quite a challenge, not to mention the additional burden of finding a convenient parking place, hopefully as close as possible to your new place of residence. A professional full-service mover, on the other hand, will take all driving-related challenges in stride.
Lastly, remember that when your movers pack and haul your belongings, they also offer you adequate liability coverage. If, on the other hand, you do your own packing and driving, your movers' liability for any damage sustained in transit will significantly diminish. What may seem like a cost-effective solution to begin with may end up being much more expensive in the long run.
A full-service move is a worry-free move! For more information, contact your NYC Mover.
Our service areas are:
Mover Manhattan - Upper East side, Upper West side, Lower West side, East village, Midtown, Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens & Staten Island.

A bill to eliminate fees associated with acquiring a concealed handgun permit is sitting on Louisiana Governor John Bel Edward's (D) desk.
The legislation — HB 304 — was sponsored by Louisiana Representative Tanner Magee (R-Dist. 53).
According to Task & Purpose, "a five-year [Louisiana] concealed carry permit costs $125 and a lifetime permit costs $500." Veterans currently pay half price for either one, but Magee's bill would eliminate the fees for veterans altogether.
LegiScan shows that HB 304 was sent to Governor Edwards on May 5 with a total of 59 state representatives signing on to sponsor the bill, in addition to Magee. The bill passed the House by a vote of 96-0 and passed the Senate by a vote of 37-1.

He stares at me blankly.
"Yeah, um. I had this uncommunicated fantasy that you'd clean up the kitchen, since I made dinner. I didn't tell you that, though. Okay, my bad!"
"I didn't clean up the kitchen because I was busy buying tickets to take you to the Caribbean."
Now it's my turn to stare blankly.
"We're going to Curaçao!"
"The only better excuse would be, 'Sorry, sugar. I was busy donating a kidney to save your life.'"
Best. Anniversary present. EVER. Commence crazy happy-dancing in the middle of our dirty kitchen.
We'd discussed possibly taking a trip, and a quick Google search indicated that Aruba, Bonaire, and Curaçao are the only three Caribbean islands practically guaranteed not to have hurricanes in October. When Keith booked the trip, that's all I knew about our destination. Oh, and I had a hazy notion that the island had something to do with the sort of fruity booze that sorority girls like. The more I learn, though, the more excited I am to be visiting Curaçao. It's so far south, it's technically South America. But it's also a Caribbean island. BUT WAIT, it's also Dutch!
|Willemstad, where we'll stay, has been called the most European Caribbean capital city. It's been occupied by the Dutch since 1634.
Think European cuisine made with produce boated in from Venezuela and world-class shopping. Image credit
|But wait... Curacao also has a desert! I'm telling you, this place has everything.
|We're staying here.
|The rooms are pretty, too!
I'd like to line up a few guest bloggers to keep everyone entertained while I'm away.

Today, I went to South Shields. I haven't been there for years, but it used to be a fairly regular starting point for a good walk. After a brief visit to the Arbeia Roman Fort, I started my usual walk over the cliff-top path that leads to the really quite splendid Souter Lighthouse, passing by the not-quite-as-splendid as it used to be Marsden Rock.
After a tour of the lighthouse, I stopped for a late lunch and a pot of Earl Grey tea (it just seemed like the right thing to have). I then continued to walk southwards. Somehow, I kept going all the way to Sunderland, which made it quite a long walk. Then I got the Metro home.
It was warm and sunny all day, if a little hazy. But there was a very pleasant breeze blowing, so it didn't feel as hot as it might have done. Of course, that fooled me into not realising that my bare arms were getting a bit scorched.
The pictures you can currently see in the gallery have had no processing done on them at all, which is why some of them look, err, naff. This is mainly because I was having fun with manual settings. I may get the hang of them one day .
This morning's weight was well down on yesterday. On getting home after that long walk it was even lower, but I don't expect that to last.
The weather forecast has changed since I last looked – apparently tomorrow is going to be much the same as today. Not sure what I'll get up to yet…

MenuOur PeopleEnquire
Enquire »Enquire »
Today's reported case of A and B v Secretary of State for Health concerns an unsuccessful judicial review challenge in the High Court in Manchester by two women resident in Northern Ireland to a policy of the Secretary of State which determines that abortions on the NHS in England should not be available for residents of Northern Ireland. The Claimants are seeking to appeal the decision to the Court of Appeal.
The claim arises from the fact that Claimant A (who was a minor at the time, and whose identity cannot be revealed for legal reasons) had to travel to England in October 2012 with her mother, Claimant B (whose identity is also protected), who struggled to part-raise funds for her daughter to have a termination privately in England . Abortion law in Northern Ireland meant that it was impossible to have the termination there. The Secretary of State's policy is to have regard to the legal position in Northern Ireland in refusing to allow women resident in Northern Ireland to have terminations on the NHS in England.
During 2011over 1,000 women from Northern Ireland travelled to England for privately funded abortions, given the legal situation in Northern Ireland.
The Claimants argued that there is an obvious need for this service to be provided on the NHS in England and it was accepted that the Secretary of State has powers to ensure that it is provided here. .
The Claimants argued that it was irrational for the Secretary of State not to provide such an important service to residents of part of the UK. They have argued that their rights to respect for private and family life were engaged, and they had been discriminated against simply because of their place of residence.
The claimants lost the application but are seeking permission to appeal to the Court of Appeal in light of the importance of this issue to a significant group of women in the UK. Their solicitor, Angela Jackman, Partner at Simpson Millar LLP states:
"It is very disappointing that the court did not find in favour of our clients. This is an important issue for thousands of women in Northern Ireland, and there have been recent calls in Parliament for changes in the law. Why should women from Northern Ireland have to pay for this health service in England despite being UK citizens? And what are women in Northern Ireland who need terminations supposed to do if they cannot afford to pay privately for the service in England? We think these are important issues for the Court of Appeal to consider".
Notes to Editors:
The Claimants obtained assistance from the Abortion Network in London to pay for the private abortion. Baroness Thornton (Shadow spokesperson for Health 2010-2012, and currently Shadow spokesperson for Equalities and Women's issues) raised the issue in the House of Lords on 16 October 2013 (Hansard Col 541):

Degenerative disc disease is not a 'disease' at all, but part of the normal aging process for our spines. An x-ray or MRI study may show signs of disc degeneration in individuals who have no pain or other symptoms related to this condition.
If you have imaging that shows degenerative disc disease and come to me for an evaluation, I would first take a thorough history and perform a complete examination of the problem area and areas related to it which may produce your symptoms. This thorough and systematic mechanical testing is necessary to determine whether your condition would be suitable for treatment in this office. A complete examination helps determine whether your current symptoms may or may not be related to your x-ray or MRI findings.
If it is determined that your condition is appropriate for treatment in this office, a specific treatment plan would be demonstrated on the first visit and tested for effectiveness over a few follow up sessions, often including– (1)specific exercises to ease pain and restore function, (2) advice on how to care for yourself,(3) soft tissue manipulation,and (4)spinal mobilization techniques or spinal manipulation.
A short course of physical therapy modalities may also be recommended if your condition has been recent in onset in order to manage acute pain. These modalities may include ice/heat and electric muscle stimulation. Part of your visit should include education for future self-management in prevention and avoidance of recurrences.
