Are Fixed the Business Electricity Prices to Stick With?
As energy providers are starting to introduce increases to their rates of up to fifteen per cent, many companies are wondering whether signing up to a deal that ensures a fixed payment for business electricity prices between one and four years would reduce the balance paid monthly or result in them paying through top prices should the market take a turn during the contract stretch.
In May 2011, British Gas' parent company Centrica claimed that the wholesale cost of gas was due to rise by twenty-five per cent. This encouraged many energy providers to announce increased rates for use of their gas or electricity. There has been estimations that most customers in the UK will watch their utility bills increase by almost one-hundred and fifty pounds a year. This figure could have a massively detrimental effect on those with a low business turnover. So with prices already rising, how can customers make sure their bills stay affordable allowing them to spend their money wisely?
The benefits of a fixed plan are quite obvious- a fixed price plan will ensure that your business bill will not all of a sudden become more expensive due to your inconsistent use of energy. Even when the provider of your plan chooses to increase the unit price of their energy, this will still not effect your monthly tariff. Although it is important to be aware that a fixed price tariff does not imply that you will be charged the same balance each time you are billed. Instead, the price of each unit of energy will be capped, so if you use more, the amount owed will be higher.
On the other hand of this, it is important to know, that if prices do begin to fall you cannot move to the cheaper rate without termination of your current contract. This can also result in a penalty fee. There are no guarantees that a fixed price electricity contract will be an economically wise long-term solution, companies that do take the risk can be sure that the rate that they are paying will be the highest it can be regardless of the suppliers situation of general cost of gas etc. In the current climate, this stability is hard to come by and would be advised to be took advantage of.
It is worth looking into t he options available to you online- there are many reasonable fixed plans to investigate if it would suit your business. In fact these online deals often work out more lucrative then you would find had you signed up through an agent. Before you sign a contract attaching you to a fixed price energy offer, shop around to see if one of these online-only deals could provide greater savings in the long-run. Should you sign up to a fixed rate then find a cheaper deal elsewhere, you will encounter a huge cancellation fee that will negate any saving you were looking to make in the first place. So be aware of this also.
Just remember to do your full research to ensure the best business electricity choice. Visit the website of each provider and look at service reviews on independent price comparison sites before you agree to anything.

Dr Martin Mansergh to give talk in Fethard
Dr. Martin Mansergh, who was intimately involved as special adviser to successive Irish governments working out of the 'peace process' in Northern Ireland will speak in Fethard on Friday, November 21, in the Convent Community Hall at 8pm.
The peace process in Northern Ireland has very real repercussions and echoes for the whole of Ireland and across the full spectrum of our lives from politics and economics to culture and sport.
Dr Mansergh is one of the Government's eleven person 'Advisory Group on The Decade of Centenaries', which is chaired by Dr Maurice Manning, Chancellor of The National University of Ireland. Many of the topics that were core to the recent Peace Process have their origins in the happenings of a hundred years ago and are still central to the governmental impasse that is tormenting the Stormont administration at this very minute.
Dr. Mansergh's talk is definitely very opportune at this time and both his informed reflections on the past and his perspectives on the future are of more than just general interest. They are of very real importance, as the 'peace process' on the island of Ireland still has decades still left to run before the issues involved can be regarded purely as 'history'.
His talk, entitled 'The Peace Process –The Long Term Perspective', is being hosted by Fethard Historical Society in the Convent Community Hall at 8pm on Friday, November 21. Admission, Members €3, Non-Members €5 and refreshments will be served. For those wishing to join the Society membership can be paid on the night: Individual €7, Family €10, Students and Unwaged €5. All are very welcome to this important event.

Lama Zopa Rinpoche
Our Prisoners
[posted February 20, 2009]
December 17, 2008
Dear Ven. Robina,
Hi there. I pray you're all in good health and prospering. My wishes also to Lama Zopa and those who aid in his efforts to relieve the suffering of those who are in the dark.
I know it is Christmas time, but still the "Ho ho ho" doesn't seem to infect me like some. I'm waiting for the Lunar New Year, although no one here is going to allow me any fireworks to scare away old ghosts!!
So Merry Christmas anyway, Ven. Robina. You have made every day a gift to me by your having looked after my journey on the way of the Buddha. I have many, many times used the sutras you have sent me to understand better, through knowledge acquired in meditation and daily living, to wake up a little bit. The suffering is recognizable as having been my own creation, no one else. Every episode in my life has been set in motion by me as a codependant operation with other sentient beings. There is no more "them."
So thank you, Ven. Robina, for working with me. I also have enjoyed so very very much receiving the postcards you send from all those far away places. It helps to "see" the larger world in this way and to see the belt of the sangha encircling it.
Well, peace on earth and good will towards everyone is a good enough goal. I know now first I must end my own suffering in order to understand others.
I wish you peace and golden days always. Please light a little incense for me in Dharamsala when you are there.

Re: Nancy Taylor Vanzandt & Jarret W. Bowling 1800s VA
In reply to:
Nancy Taylor Vanzandt & Jarret W. Bowling 1800s VA
I would also appreciate learning anything at all about Nancy VanSant's parents. I have learned a few things concerning her that could be clues:
First, my great-great grandfather was Wilbourne Henderson VanSant. Nancy Taylor VanSant Bowling named a son Wilbourne Henderson Bowling.
Next, both Nancy & my great-great grandfather were born in Virginia (she Tazewell, he Russell County) and both lived & died in Elliott (originally Morgan) County, Kentucky.
Wilbourne Henderson VanSant married Lavisa Susan Hunter and they had 8 children. The first two were named James & Elizabeth. James was born 1843, Elizabeth 1846 - I have this from the 1850 Morgan County, Kentucky census.
Finally, at the Virginia Digital Library site I found an 1856 obituary for Elizabeth VanSant, wife of James VanSant who died April 22, 1856.
I don't know anything about this James & Elizabeth VanSant of Virginia yet, but think the fact that Wilbourne Henderson VanSant named his first child James and his second one Elizabeth just might be clues to the names of his parents. That Nancy T. VanSant Bowling named a child Wilbourne Henderson makes it seem probable that she and my great-great grandfather might have been siblings. (She was born 1813, I believe; and he was born 1819.)
Also, I have a small bit of data from an 1896 publication which states that W.H. VanSant's father was an early settler in Pennsylvania who migrated to Maryland then to Virginia. (The source is "Biographical Cyclopedia of the Commonwealth of Kentucky" published by John M. Grisham Co., Chicago, Illinois, published 1896, page 182.)
These are merely clues and I, too, am interested in learning whatever more I can about this particular VanSant family.

Laboratory instruments solutions for petrochemical and biofuel
Crude oil is a highly complex mixture of hydrocarbons. Through desalting, distillation, and conversion, it is transformed into fractions of higher-quality hydrocarbons such as paraffins, aromatics, naphthenes, and olefins. Different ratios of these so-called PIANO compounds are blended to yield different fuel and lubricant types. Increasingly, fossil fuels are blended with biofuels. Both blending and refining processes are demanding and require precise and reliable analysis. Regardless whether you deal with fossil or biogenic products, we are your specialist when it comes to analyzing them in accordance with international standards.

Today's food and beverages (F&B) are much more than just simple "organic fuels" needed for survival. Beyond their nutritive value, they are consumed for their taste or flavor. Increasingly, they are also a source for maintaining health and enhancing our well-being via high-quality nutrition. At the same time, with an ever-increasing number of processed foods, food quality and safety aspects are becoming more important. All the more because foods are highly complex materials – prone to degradation and contamination – that contain myriads of compounds.

TOKYO (majirox news) — 47News, a news website operated by Kyodo News and regional newspapers from across Japan, decided to ax its Twitter microblogging account on July 23 due to improper personal remarks a rogue employee made on it, operator Press Net Japan Co. said.
A contract worker for a sub-contractor entrusted with editorial work for 47News tweeted personal comments about news stories, including praising the death penalty and criticizing opponents of stress tests currently being carried out on nuclear reactors across Japan.
Press Net Japan officials admitted that they had been lax in dealing with the site's Twitter account.
"We posted a message without making a proper check of personal opinions being expressed by editorial staff," Press Net Japan President Masaru Imai said. "Our management was not good enough and I apologize."

In the world of comedy, Laraine Newman is an industry legend. She's been consistently working for over 40 years, starting as a member of the legendary first cast of Saturday Night Live, and branching out into dozens of roles in television, film and voice acting. She has an amazing amount of stories, and when I heard she was going to be doing a one-woman show as part of Sketchfest this year, I jumped at the chance to experience her live.
It was a rainy night and a late show. This was my first time visiting PianoFight, and the big room is still an intimate black box of a theater. It was almost disconcerting to be this close to somebody so vital to the history of sketch comedy. Newman came on stage with very little fanfare, and she had one prop: a single metal chair. She spoke in a calm, conversational manner with the crowd, and introduced what would be the deep premise for the show: the anxiety of an audition.
She opened up with a discussion of her first audition after she ended her run on SNL: the Martin Scorsese film "King Of Comedy", which starred Jerry Lewis and Robert DeNiro. To make matters even weirder, her audition was with DeNiro doing Lewis' part! This lead to 45 minutes of what was essentially pure honesty. Via a projector, she incorporated video and sound effects to simulate the experience of the things that go on in one's head when one is about to embark on something both difficult and important.
It's hard to imagine that somebody like Newman would ever experience audition anxiety — she's a living legend! She's a veritable chameleon of voices, a pinnacle of comic timing; her resume is inarguably impressive. Like most every other human, however, she showed that even the greats don't always feel they are "great." The way she embodied this feeling was intense and lovely, and I've never felt more comforted by a single performance. She told stories of experiences with uncomfortable casting directors, and also showed footage of her most successful performances, and how she never even thinks about those when performing live.
As I walked out of the theater, I felt something better than experiencing a great show. I genuinely felt like I needed to work on my own anxieties, and learning not so much to overcome them, but to acknowledge them and work through them. It was as good as therapy. Lairane Newman is a national treasure, and should always be remembered as such.

It's hard to predict when and where you'll get bitten by the drag racing bug. I was 12 years old. It was a visit with legendary Ford driver/crew chief Bob Glidden that got me hooked. He gave me one behind-the-scenes tour of his pit and my dream was set.
My son Bob IV asked for his own dragster at four years old.
That was the year he started asking what became an annual question: "Am I old enough yet?"
My wife Terri and I have mixed feelings about our sons racing. We've seen first-hand the risks involved with any sport, really, and especially with motorsports. We wonder if this first dragster is only the beginning. But we'd never push him, and he keeps asking. So we added a junior dragster to our stable.
I guess with a name like Bob Tasca IV, we should've anticipated he may follow along in my footsteps. My grandfather, Bob Tasca Sr., was the one who got Ford involved with NHRA. It's a great story – he asked people who wanted to see Ford involved to write letters asking for support. You know what? They wrote so many letters, Ford agreed. My dad, Bob Jr., comes to my races now. He's always there to support me and the Motorcraft/Quick Lane Ford Shelby Mustang Funny Car team.
And here we are now with five Funny Car teams, two Pro Stock teams and a host of sportsman in our 'One Ford' family.
Bob IV goes testing for the first time in Charlotte. My wife and kids are coming to Charlotte for the VisitMyrtleBeach.com 4-Wide Nationals April 14-17, then we'll stay over on Monday so he can try out his new junior dragster.
If you've never seen one, they're pretty cool. We'll have his painted up in Motorcraft/Quick Lane colors, just like my Funny Car. My good friend Roy Hill, who owns Roy Hill's Drag Racing School, helped me put a training plan together for him.
Roy's taught everyone from NHRA Full Throttle Series drivers to NASCAR Sprint Cup's Kurt Busch, so he'll learn from the best. He even taught me.
First, we'll tow Bob IV through the parking lots so he can get a feel for how it steers. Then we'll have him do a few launches and eventually full passes, but we're going to take it slow. I want to make sure we do everything we need to to help him understand how the car works and how to drive it. I'd like him to win some day, but first I want him to understand and respect the car, and know how to drive it safely.
Wish us luck!
P.S. – John Force, Robert Hight, Mike Neff, Tim Wilkerson and I got together at The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway for a 'One Ford' photo shoot. You can download wallpaper from it at

Jorge Amado World Literature Analysis
(Masterpieces of World Literature, Critical Edition)
Jorge Amado was the most illustrious Brazilian novelist of the twentieth century. Within Brazil, Amado was seen as a national treasure, while abroad he was considered by many readers and critics to be almost the personification of contemporary Brazilian letters. Many of his novels have become classics of Brazilian literature; several have found an international audience. His novels have been made into films, and almost all of Amado's novels have been translated into numerous languages. Amado's novels, however, are not without controversy.
Amado's career can be divided into two basic phases: the pre-1958, or pre-Gabriela, Clove and Cinnamon phase, and the post-1958, or post-Gabriela, Clove and Cinnamon phase. In general, Amado's pre-1958 novels are gritty and proletarian. In these works, Amado chronicles the struggles of the downtrodden and oppressed, and he champions their causes. The author's sympathies, as reflected both in the description and the actions of his characters, are clearly on the side of the underdog. His rather one-dimensional, rebellious, proletarian heroes speak the language of the masses and show themselves to be more virtuous than their oppressors. Amado, through virtually every element of these frequently heavy-handed works, leaves no doubt as to the message he wishes to communicate.
This is not to say, however, that Amado's pre-1958 novels are not worthy of praise. The novels of this period have been lauded for how vividly they portray the Brazilian underclasses and for, in many cases, their inclusion and equally vivid depiction of Brazil's Afro-Brazilian culture (in Jubiabá, for example). Even with their heavily politicized content, some of these novels present love stories, or at least love subplots, the treatment of which borders on the lyrical. Virtually all the pre-1958 novels, from the best (the consensus choice being The Violent Land) to the weakest, show the aspect of Amado's fiction that most readers and critics alike consider to be the author's greatest strength. He is, quite simply, a master storyteller.
Had Amado quit writing prior to 1958, he would have been considered a major writer of the so-called novel of the Brazilian northeast and his fame within Brazil would have been assured. It is the works he published beginning in 1958, Gabriela, Clove and Cinnamon being the first of these, however, that won him international fame.
The Amado of Gabriela, Clove and Cinnamon and that of subsequent novels was in many ways a new Amado. The change was not one of political conviction but of approach. Amado's post-1958 novels continued to expose and denounce social injustice. The realism and proletarian directness of his earlier novels had been replaced, however, with irony, picaresque humor, parody, and satire. The new Amado still favored the lower classes, clearly, but his support of them and his antipathy toward the privileged classes no longer came across in heavy-handed fashion. Rather, there is an exaltation of the former and parody of the latter. Correspondingly, while the pre-1958 Amado novels are very serious works, the post-1958 Amado novels are frequently downright funny, with the upper classes almost always the butt of the joke. Amado's social message still gets through; it is merely conveyed in a more entertaining and an artistically subtler package.
The post-1958 novels are also frequently more sensual and freer in general with respect to social mores. In these novels, Amado celebrates the freedom to pursue a life unrestricted by bourgeois values. His colorful characters—from rum-swilling bums to sexually uninhibited young women to naked ghosts—with whom Amado consistently sympathizes, flout Brazil's proper and regulated middle-and upper-class society.
Amado's pre-1958 novels and his post-1958 novels do have more in common, however, than the author's sympathy for the downtrodden. One element found in both phases of Amado's career is his celebration of Afro-Brazilian culture, and, in fact, this element appears even stronger in the post-1958 Amado. Amado continues to be the master storyteller in his second phase; in fact, he appears to have only gotten better in this area.
Amado's works are not without controversy. He has been criticized for exploiting the misery of the lower classes and for romanticizing and even, in his second phase, idealizing and trivializing their lives. He has been criticized as well for promoting racial and cultural stereotypes, for bordering (in post-1958 works) on the pornographic, for demeaning women (this despite the fact that many of his strongest and wisest characters are women), for repeating episodes and characters, for stylistic sloppiness, for being technically uninnovative, for being superficial, and for being too popular. All of this combined has led several critics to decry the quality of Amado's works and to challenge his place in Brazilian literature. Despite the controversy surrounding his works, however, Amado remains one of the most widely read and most internationally famous Brazilian novelists.
Gabriela, Clove and Cinnamon
First published: Gabriela, cravo e canela, 1958 (English translation, 1962)
Type of work: Novel
The sensual love story of Gabriela and Nacib is set against the backdrop of a changing Brazil.
Gabriela is a beautiful, uneducated, young mulatto girl who, escaping the droughts in the Bahian backlands, walks into the town of Ilhéus in the 1920's in search of a better life. She is hired as a cook by Nacib...

Prague is a city of churches and cathedrals. From St. Vitus Cathedral at Prague Castle
to Tyn Church in Old Town Square, this is the 'city of a thousand spires'.
We visited a number of churches and present just a few here.
BELOW - The Church of St. James (kostel Sv. Jakuba Vetsiho). Its decorations are considered
to be the most beautiful and valuable in Prague. The church contains 23 chapels and is
part of many legends. After St. Vitus Cathedral, it is the second largest church in Prague.
BELOW - The churchÆs acoustics are great, that is why there are so many concerts held there.
One of the prides of the church is a magnificent organ from 1702.
ABOVE RIGHT and BELOW LEFT - The Church of Mother of God in front of T²n,
often translated as Church of Our Lady in front of T²n, is a dominant feature of the
Old Town , and has been the main church of this part of the city since the 14th century.
BELOW MIDDLE - The lovely white faþade of St. Nicholas Church in the Old Town Square
The Church of St. Francis of Assisi from 1688, inspired by contemporary Roman
architecture, is an exceptional work of a Burgundy architect Jean Baptiste Mathey.
Interior decorations stand out by their sophistication dominated by a fresco of the
Last Judgement by the famous Prague Baroque painter Vaclav Vavrinec Reiner.
St. Salvator Church is part of a group of buildings forming the oldest Czech Jesuit College - the Klementinum.
St. Salvator has a beautiful Baroque facia, with porticos decorated with sand-stone sculptures
of saints by Jan JirÝ Bendl. A niche in the wall houses a sculpture of the Virgin Mary.
BELOW - Construction of the baroque St. Nicholas Church in the Little Quarter
began in 1703, on the site of a former parish church, which dates back to 1283.
BELOW - The Astronomical Clock, built into one side of the Old Town Hall Tower,
dates from the 15th century. At the top of the hour, Death tips his hat and rings a bell;
the doors open and the twelve apostles parade by; the rooster crows; and the hour is rung.
Over the thousand years of its existence, the Old Town Square has been a silent witness
to important events in Czech history. History left its mark here in the form of
demonstrations, weddings, tournaments and political meetings.
And don't forget to enjoy the great cafes and restaurants of Prague.

Being in the Red Can be a Good Thing?! – GTJ Dating Series with Erika E. (No. 62)
Is red the new black? When online dating is concerned, the answer is a resounding YES! Two weeks ago, Slate published an article saying that you should wear a red shirt in your online dating profile to get more responses. For women, "Twenty-one percent of their emails arrived when they wore red, whereas the other colors – black, white, yellow, green, and blue – attracted 14 to 17 percent of the total." Pretty impressive!
Why red? The study has two explanations.
- Red is associated with love – plain and simple.
- People flush red when they are sexually receptive, thus associating the color with attraction for the other person.
That's quite the correlation! They say the same is true for both men and women, so start stocking up on red clothes. But before you go on that red shirt shopping spree, remember that simply posting a picture in your brand spankin' new red shirt is not the golden ticket to getting you a date every night of the week. The most important part of the picture is still you, and only you.
Don't forget these five rules of thumb for your online dating profile pictures:
1. The main profile picture should be a clear headshot of yourself
If you don't have at least one clear headshot as your main picture (it's either blurry or too far away), it will look like you're hiding something. You don't want someone to click right past you because he or she can't see what you look like, automatically assuming the worst.
2. Less is more
Believe it or not, Match.com allows a whopping 26 photos in your profile. That sounds more like a Facebook album! I have no doubt that the pictures from your trip to Paris are amazing… just remember, there's a time and a place for them, and that place is not an online dating site. People have a tendency to look though all of your photos and dismiss you simply because they see just one they don't like.
3. Be by yourself in the shot
This says it all.
4. Have one "interesting" picture
It's hard to know what to say to someone in that first email, isn't it? This is why we need to provide some "e-mail bait" – something to catch someone's attention and generate questions. For example, if you have a picture of yourself with a gold medal around your neck, it automatically raises the question, "How did you get that?"
5. Be accurate
The point of doing online dating is to get offline. Don't lie about your looks – people will always find out the truth in the end.
Now, with these rules of thumb in mind, feel free to break out the red (we're still talking shirts here), and post away. And then when you have too many dates to count, you can break out the red again… this time perhaps a nice bottle of merlot.
Erika Ettin is the Founder of A Little Nudge, where she helps people stand out from the online dating crowd and have a rewarding experience. An archive of all of Erika's columns is also available. Want to connect with Erika? Join her newsletter for updates and tips.

Justin Timberlake
January 31, 1981 in Memphis
Memphis, TN, United States
Singer and actor Justin Timberlake was born on January 31, 1981 in Memphis, Tennessee. After performing on Star Search and The All-New Mickey Mouse Club at a young age, Timberlake became one of the lead singers in the widely successful boy band NSYNC. He released Justified, his debut solo album, in 2002. The album earned Timberlake two Grammy Awards. His second album, FutureSex/LoveSounds (2006) was also a commercial success and spawned three number-one songs. Following a hiatus to focus on acting, Timberlake released two albums in 2013, The 20/20 Experience and The 20/20 Experience - 2 of 2.

Although it does not have anything to do with Justin Timberlake, every time I hear this hook I cannot refrain from getting that reminder of that old song "You're so Vain" which in a similar way it uses very simple words but somehow, you're absolutely sure that the corresponding person, the one who this is directed to, will have 0.0% chances of not getting it.

I was hub hopping and saw a rather innovative approach to having a hub written in two languages. The text portion of the hub was written in English, and then a photo was uploaded containing the same article, written in Spanish.
I didn't flag the hub, but I am looking for some feedback - does this violate the requirement that hubs be written in English?
Hmmm. Bilingual may actually not be a bad idea! Especially if HP were to include a button option. Spanish option on English page; English option on Spanish page; etc. Not automatic or mandatory; and not an auto-translation feature; but only for those Hubbers who want to do it as you described, except all text instead of the photo scenario.
I don't see why it shouldn't be OK, providing the hub author is also the author of the Spanish article, or has the right to publish it. Having said that, I personally would probably stick the original article onto another web site/blog and give a link to it for those who prefer to read it in Spanish.
I think it is sad that language restrictions are in place here. It should at least be made possible to post in some of the major languages since there are plenty of people who would catch any dodgy shenanigans.
Unfortunately, far too many people assume English is spoken universally. That is however not the case.
I speak Spanish fairly well, so I thought it was a rather good idea. The article was also translated well - it would be a nice option!
As I moved to Puerto Rico some months ago and have a Spanish/English speaking wife, I have voiced that we need to have a Spanish hubpages. Lastheart is my wife and we do have a lot of readers of Spanish speaking origins. I believe it could be a great move.
I think that was a rather creative idea and I would not think that it violates the policies since the article was written in English. The Spanish pieces, after-all, are in a photo rather than "written" in a capsule.
I also agree that those who primarily speak other languages should have a HP catered to their needs. If the main staff of HP do not want to man it, then they could sort-of "franchise" it out to those who speak the other languages. That way, it's still HP in that they are connected, but the main staff don't have to spend their limited resources running it.
I agree that it is a good idea. I am on my way to learning German and if I can find bilingual articles, it will be very useful.
I think I that I've read that search engines cannot read photos and that they use the text etc. that accompanies them to identify the image, which leads me to wonder what happens to the text in a photo capsule when it comes to search results? It's late here so maybe I will find the answer tomorrow of I do a search for it.
It would be nice if there were a way for search engines to identify the text in the image. You're probably right, though - the program would simply identify it as a .jpg file and not "read" the text in the image. The caption could be written in the foreign language, though, and that might bring some search results (without getting the hub flagged for foreign language use - some foreign language is allowed, as long as the bulk of the hub is in English).
Still, the image thing could be an interesting way to have the hub article broadcast in two languages at the same time. It would be nice to allow the option of having a direct translation alongside the original article in text format, though.
It would depend, to a certain extent, on the subject of the hub, but generally speaking we would not allow a hub that's effectively written half in English and half in another language. An exception might be an informative hub written on the topic of translation, linguistics, etymology, etc.
So what is your response to the original text being presented as a graphic image, with a translation below?
I haven't seen the Hub, so I can't say for sure, but my hunch is that it would be taken down.
But if the language is n photo format wouldn't that be okay to leave it?
As a moderator manually reviewing the hub, it wouldn't make any difference how the text was added. If anything, the author might be risking running into additional formatting issues, which would make the Hub that much more susceptible to flagging.
Again, I have not seen the Hub, but assuming that it's written on a random topic and then simply repeated in Spanish, a moderator would most likely take it down.
It was a hub on a personal travel experience - the article was written entirely in English, with images of the travels. Then a large image at the bottom of the article contained the translation in Spanish - I didn't flag it, since the situation was rather ambiguous and the translation was a good one.
So no translations are allowed, even if they are uploaded in photo format?
Rats. Oh, well - at least the issue is more clear. No foreign translations of articles included in the hub (unless, of course, the hub is on etymology or something of that nature). Thanks for clearing it up, Dan.
Well, I guess the answer is to set up a free blog somewhere, with the foreign language text and insert a link to that in the hub.
If that blog allows Adsense and other advertising, it might even be a win-win situation for the author and a lose-lose situation for Hubpages.
If someone wants to do this a lot and runs out of free blog/site places on the two links per domain rule, I guess putting an image of the text on a domain like Flickr, which Hubpages does not consider threatening, would be a further option.
There is always a way round pettiness and bureaucracy.

Until now, there have been few studies proving by the scientific method that Pilates relieves back pain.
A study at the rehabilitation institute at Kaplan Medical Center in Rehovot has shown that Pilates, a physical fitness system developed a century ago by Joseph Pilates in Germany, can strengthen the body physically and emotionally after a heart attack.
Pilates, which focuses on controlled movements, has some 14,000 instructors and over 10 million people who practice it regularly in the US alone.
The Kaplan team headed by physiologist Dr. Ayelet GIladi, explained that after a heart attack, many patients feel lack of confidence and are afraid to exercise as they did before the event.

My sister purchased the Groupon that gave her a discount on eyelash extensions from this salon. She got them put on the week of her wedding and was ASSURED by the stylist (I believe her name is Tanika) that they would remain intact for 2-3 weeks. My sister allowed them to dry for more than 4 hours (much longer than they needed to) and then proceeded to shower that evening. During the shower, the eyelashes came unglued. Naturally, she contacted the stylist and was assured she would redo them. My sister agreed to do this on the Saturday morning of her wedding day (although this was quite an inconvenience, and not planned for). When we showed up after having our hair done at Changes (where we've always gotten excellent customer service), the stylist hadn't yet arrived. We waited for her (though we were on a very tight schedule) and she did my sister's eyelashes. Afterward, she insisted that she pay for the second round of eyelashes, claiming that none of her other customers had ever had a problem with the eyelashes before. When I challenged this, she told us she'd had to squeeze my sister in, and that her other clients had suffered (even though my sister had made an appointment with her as soon as the first set of lashes came off). I told her that this was not standard practice, and that we shouldn't have to pay for the second set of lashes, since none of this was our fault. When I said this, this woman looked at me, said nothing, and WALKED OUT THE DOOR and out of the building, not saying a word. I've never been treated so rudely by a supposed "professional." She obviously has no interest in providing adequate customer service, or in keeping her clients happy.
I'm writing this review because I know my sister won't pursue it the way it should be pursued. In short, this was a VERY unprofessional, dishonest, and disappointing experience at Amp Salon. I'll be sure to pass this information on to my friends and family, and we'll be sure to avoid this salon and its shady business practices at all costs from now on. I urge you to do the same.
I started going to Magan on a recommendation of a friend and was not disappointed. She's amazing! Got my hair to the perfect shade of blonde, reshaped the mess, and did it all with a smile. I'd recommend her in a heart beat.

Duke Arthur I of Brittany
Life Path Number 22
Duke Arthur I of Brittany is a male celebrity.
He was born on Sunday March 29th 1187, in Unknown.
Duke Arthur I of Brittany was born under the most powerful and potentially the most successful of all Life Path numbers. It offers him the extremes of life's possibilities: on one hand, Duke has the potential to be the Master Builder, the person capable of perceiving something great in the archetypal world and manifesting it in the relative world; on the other hand, he can slip into the depths of obscurity, achieving little more than personal support.
Brittany's power is delicate. It exists by virtue of his ideals and vision, which he must use to inspire others to join him in his dream. Only by marshaling collective forces is Duke Arthur I of Brittany able to bring together the necessary elements - people, ideas, resources - that will enable him to realize his goals.
Consequently, Duke's Life Path is one requiring dramatic evolution. By being able to integrate seemingly conflicting characteristics within himself - Brittany's inspiring vision and his natural tendency toward practicality, for example - he develops the talent to deal effectively with a great variety of people. This allows Duke Arthur I of Brittany to understand and unite many differing people toward a single goal, melding them into a concerted whole. His task in life is to unite the dream with the bottom line. In short, Duke Arthur I of Brittany is the visionary with his feet on the ground.
Duke is good at business and politics. He naturally understands large institutions, and has the ability to think and act on an international scale.
He is gifted with uncommonly sound common sense. Brittany is able to see the beauty and potential in a given idea, but also the practical methods that will bring it to fruition. Somehow, Duke Arthur I of Brittany understands the limitations of ideas - what will work and what will not. This is an intuitive gift that can evaluate possibilities on the basis of their practicality.
While in many aspects the 22 is the most promising number, it is also the most difficult to live up to. Brittany has a great ambition, which can be a most difficult master, driving him to accomplish all that he is capable of.
Duke Arthur I of Brittany is a steady partner in any relationship. He offers sound advice and consistent emotional support. Brittany does not suffer from flights of fancy, and naturally resists the emotional heights. He is unconventional in thought and action, but tends to be traditional in appearance. Duke avoids airs and pretension.
Brittany's challenge is to share his vision and allow others to make their personal contributions. That requires flexibility on his part, perhaps his weakest characteristic. Duke Arthur I of Brittany often lacks faith in the ability of others. Therefore, he tends to control people and situations, sometimes tempted to manipulate.
In the end, Duke Arthur I of Brittany must learn to surrender to the larger cause that he serves. The final result may be quite different from his original vision, but with faith and commitment Duke will make an enduring impact on the world.
You and Duke

Title: Times of Rebellion
Author: Cliff Ball
Rating: five star
About the Book
An end times thriller book four
What happens to an innocent Independent Baptist from a small town in Oklahoma when he gets out in the world of fame and fortune? Well, he sure made me mad, but his parents did just what I did with my own son, they put him in God's hands and kept him in prayer. He made the mistakes we all make, in one form or another, as God works the circumstances of our lives to mold us and remake us to the image of his dear son. Timothy has a lot in common with Adam – and I imagine when he was a child, and first heard the story of Adam and Eve, he said, "I wouldn't have disobeyed God."

What are the connotations in this poem?
- print Print
- list Cite
To fully answer this question, one must understand what the term connotation means. A connotation is when a second meaning of a word is used in combination with the explicit meaning.
As for the connotations in Dickinson's poem "Because I could not stop for death", there are a few that can be justified.
1. The personification of Death (as notated by the capitalization of the "D" to give Death and proper name) depicts death as both an abstract idea and a concrete one. Abstractly, death is something that happens to someone; it is used as a primary understanding in this sense.
As for the secondary (underlying) meaning, Death can be understood as a person who can travel with us. "He" can, in a sense, befriend us so that lose our fear of him.
2. The setting sun in the poem also has two very distinctive meanings. First, the image of the actual setting sun brings to mind the close of a day.
The secondary meaning, when used in context of the poem, defines the end of life. As the sun sets darkness sets over everything. Here, the darkness which comes with the setting sun represents the coming of death- when darkness comes for good.
3. One final connotation Dickinson sets up is the imagery depicted in the fourth stanza.
We paused before a house that seemed
A swelling of the ground;
Here the speaker states that they pass a house. As readers, one can clearly understand the meaning of a house- a place where people live. The connotation exists in the second line: "a swelling of the ground." Instead of picturing a home (built of brick or wood) one can see that the speaker is looking at a grave.
A grave represents the eternal home one goes to after death.

March 5, 2014 -- Toronto Real Estate Board President Dianne Usher announced that February 2014 home sales reported by Greater Toronto Area REALTORS® were up by 2.1 per cent compared to the same period last year. Total February sales amounted to 5,731 compared to 5,613 last year.
"Despite the continuation of inclement weather in February, we did see a moderate uptick in sales activity last month. The sales increase was largely driven by resale condominium apartments. New listings of resale condominium apartments were up on a year-over-year basis, giving buyers ample choice. This is in contrast to the listings situation for singles, semis and townhomes, where supply continued to be constrained. Some would-be buyers had difficulty finding a home that met their needs," said Ms. Usher.

K-array Loudspeakers
Audio specialist Sennheiser provided spectacular sound for a diverse range of artists during the SXSW Music Festival as its microphones and wireless transmitters—as well as the revolutionary loudspeakers from distributed brand K-array—were put through the paces over the course of the three-day event. Sennheiser sponsored busy stages at the PureVolume House, Maggie Mae's and Speakeasy--each located at the heart of Austin's music scene.
K-array's Redline KR200s, an ultra-light 4,000-watt system that puts out a continuous 127 dB of power.
The stage at PureVolume House featured a set of the K-array Redline KR200s loudspeakers, which deliver "no compromise sound" within an astonishingly small footprint. Artists were also provided with a Sennheiser SKM 2000 wireless handheld transmitter with MMD 935-1 capsule and a full complement of evolution microphones for reinforcing guitars, drums and other instruments. Similar equipment was used during performances at Maggie Mae's and Speakeasy.
The sound of Sennheiser could be heard both on and off the stage during Austin's most famous music festival. Blameshift, a Long Island, NY-based rock band that just released a brand new self-titled EP, allowed fans to preview their music through a pair of Sennheiser HD 238s as they strolled through the crowd. Sennheiser reps were on hand for the duration, providing demos on a range of Sennheiser headsets and offering plenty of giveaways to music fans.
SPOTLIGHT ON K-ARRAY: Revolutionary Sound, Compact Footprint
The KR200s was chosen as the loudspeaker for PureVolume House for a few compelling reasons. First, the deceivingly small system delivers well-balanced, crisp sound across the entire frequency range. Second, its small size and low weight make it remarkably easy to set up and tear down, making it ideal for an evening gig or a temporary installation.
The KR200s is a powered two-way system designed for use with small to medium wavefront systems, in both mobile and install applications. Its ultra-slim satellite features a line array of two-inch, high-efficiency drive units with a neodymium magnet structure and suspensions. This ensures maximum linear excursion of sound with minimal noise. Since the K-array unit features a revolutionary design and is not housed in a traditional speaker cabinet, it delivers a truly natural sound.
The incredibly thin and lightweight K-array loudspeakers are manufactured in Italy and distributed in the U.S. and Canada exclusively by Sennheiser. Despite their small size, K-array speakers deliver impressive power and sound quality for small, medium and large-scale applications, including touring, special events, installed sound and broadcast. For more information, please visit www.k-array.com .
Sennheiser is a world-leading manufacturer of microphones, headphones and wireless transmission systems. Established in 1945 in Wedemark, Germany, Sennheiser is now a global brand represented in 60 countries around ...

Many of us are familiar with the cute and quirky "MUTTS" comic strip from our local newspapers. Earl and Mooch are lovable canines with personalities that many of us can see in our own furry best friends. What you may not have known is that award-winning creator Patrick McDonnell is a huge advocate of shelter adoption and even uses his comic strip to encourage people to adopt from shelters.
It started twenty years ago, McDonnell told iHeartDogs:
In MUTTS I try to view the world 'through the eyes of animals'. My comic strip characters, Earl and Mooch, both have loving guardians in loving homes. It made me think about all the dogs and cats waiting in shelters for that same experience. Around the same time The Humane Society of the United States asked if I could do something for National Animal Shelter Appreciation Week. So that began my twice yearly weeklong series, Shelter Stories.
McDonnell adopts all of his own pets as well. They currently have a Jack Russell Terrier name Amelie, who they adopted from Animal Care Centers of NYC through Post Pets, a rescue group. They recently lost their formerly feral cat, Ootie. McDonnell said it's difficult not having a cat around the house and they plan on adopting soon.

Have you ever love something so much that you would find a way to have it no matter the what stood in your way? Not even prison? The notorious gang leader in Chicago, Al Capone know a thing or two about that feeling. The legend turns 116 today and while many of us have our own view towards the ruthless gangster, you have to admire his fine taste in liquor.
Templeton Rye was Al Capone's beloved spirit. Maybe it is something about the thick spicy malt texture that Mr. Capone would do anything to get his hands on. Templeton Rye claim to fame was during the 1920's also popularly known as The Prohibition Era. This was an era where the US Constitution's 18th Amendment forbid the manufacturing and sale of whiskey and other alcoholic beverages. That didn't stop the makers in Templeton from making the delicious booze we have today. Nor, did that stop Capone from smuggling the deep amber, gold copper/bronze color liquid into his Alcatraz prison cell.
This classic and prohibited recipe is still surprisingly smooth as a gangster, with a touch of woody notes and brown sugar. As tribute to the original "Scarface" we listed the properly titled, The Capone recipe for you to enjoy while at the bar or at home. Just leave the tommy guns please tucked away.
The Capone
What You Need:
- 3 oz. Templeton Rye Whiskey
- 1 oz. Grand Marnier
- Splash of Champagne
- Dash of bitters
How To Make It:
- Combine Templeton Rye, bitters and Grand Marnier in a shaker.
- Shake well, strain in martini glass.
- Float champagne and garnish with lemon twist.

There's something about the New Year that makes you want to reevaluate your entire life: Your relationships. Your priorities. Your diet. Your checkbook. Your sock drawer.
But what about your homeschool? While I realize January isn't the start of the school year for most homeschoolers, I still think it's a great time to do some evaluation when it comes to your homeschool. For many, January falls about mid-year, and that can actually be a good time to take a long, hard look at how things are going.
What's working? What isn't? Are there products I need to buy? Are there things I need to pitch? Doing a little homeschool inventory in the first month of 2016 may be the perfect thing to help bring about a successful end to your school year.
Not sure where to start? Here is a basic list of questions to ask yourself as you take inventory of your homeschool:
How are our curriculum choices for this year working out?
While I really don't believe it's curriculum that ultimately makes or breaks a homeschool, I know from experience the stress and dissatisfaction a poor curriculum choice can bring to the educating process. A lotof things can contribute to problems in your homeschool, but don't be so devoted to a certain curriculum company that you aren't willing to make changes for what is best for your child…

Adrian Grenier on the last day of filming Entourage
Adrian Grenier is spotted on the set of Entourage in Los Angeles on Monday (June 27). Adrian posted the pic to his Facebook page and wrote: "Saying my goodbyes to 'Arnold' (Rocky) and thanking him for 8 great years of loyal service! I think he knows Entourage is coming to an end – dogs always know. (And I kinda look like a dog in this too. Ruff Ruff.)"
There's also some pics in the gallery of a slimmed-down Jerry Ferrara, Kevin Dillon, and Jeremy Piven hanging with Bears legend Mike Ditka.
This must be such a tough time for all the actors considering that Tuesday was the last official day of filming. Jerry tweeted a great pic of him and Adrian on set and said: "Last shooting day of #entourage . It has been the time of my life."

If you haven't been to Tijuana Flats, I would recommend you do. They are a fantastic restaurant that serve lots of yummy Hispanic and Latino foods, such as chimichangas, tacos, enchiladas, and the like! The restaurant spans several states, so chances are you may have at least heard of it – and the reason I'm writing a post about it is simply because it's a story of success. They proudly sport their origin story at the restaurants and online, which you can view here, but I'm going to quote so as to save you time. This is what is printed on their menus. This is their origin story.
So get ready for some tear-jerkers. Because the message is sweet and simple.
"…Back in 1995, this college kid, Brian Wheeler, walked into a bar. Actually, a bunch of bars. And restaurants, too. At first, it was just harmless fun. But over time, the good times got the best of him and just going out no longer cut it. So Brian decided to open his own restaurant despite having never even worked in one before (brilliant, right?). Only problem was, Brian was broke. Luckily, his parents weren't. And after much begging and pleading, his dad loaned him $20,000 & Brian opened the first Tijuana Flats in Winter Park, Florida.
While most college grads (yes, Brian graduated from UCF, or so he says) would be stoked just to own their own restaurant, deep down Brian had a burning desire to do more. Turns out, the burning was just hot sauce he'd eaten, but Brian saw it as a sign and created his own line of hot sauces shortly thereafter—the "Smack My Ass & Call Me Sally" brand, which includes some of the hottest sauces in the world.
In 1999, Brian's success caught the eye of former restaurant industry hotshot Camp Fitch, who left retirement to become partner & chairman of Tijunana Flats. And Camp wasn't the only one. Remember the dad who reluctantly loaned his son $20K? Yup, Chester Wheeler left a 30-year career at a Fortune 500 company to become CFO of Tijuana Flats. Since then, Tijuana Flats has grown to over 75 restaurants in several very lucky states.
Since day one, Tijuana Flats has always given back to the community. But in January 2007, they created the Just in Queso Foundation to give back even more. Much more. Over $670,000 to date to help those in need.
So to all the college kids or parents of college kids out there, remember, success isn't something you can gain overnight. It's something you can gain over many nights at college bars.
The last paragraph is what is inspiring to me. It shows that even a quirky story of what most people would believe to be mistakes of youth can turn into something great. Obviously, the business is a great franchise if it spans several states. So kudos to you, Brian! It is inspirational to hear that something so big came from someone just like us.

Transform your body by getting the most out of juices
Very few of us manage to get our five portions of fruit and vegetables every day and with bikini season in full swing, we need that nutritional boost more than ever.
If you're looking to get healthy this summer, the Hotpoint Slow Masticating Juicer is exactly what you need.
Giving you 30% more juice from your fruit and vegetables, this juicer ensures you get all your essential vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. And you know what that means – glowing skin, shining hair, stronger nails and a healthier body.
The Hotpoint Slow Juicer uses a blade-free system, which means that unlike conventional juicers, it keeps the nutritional property of the juice intact.
Homemade juice is one of the best ways to get your five-a-day. Here are some top tips for getting the most out of your juices.
- Pack your juice with vegetables and only use a small portion of fruit to give it a nice taste and ensure your blood sugars don't spike.
- Remember that fruit isn't the only way to add flavour – you can also use spices. Ginger, cinnamon or even cardamom will give your juice a gorgeous boost.
- Keep your juices interesting. Don't make the same recipe over and over again – experiment and find new combinations. You'd get bored if you ate the same type of pasta for dinner every night, wouldn't you?
- If you have a busy week ahead, don't risk skipping your healthy juice boost. Take 30 minutes to do blitz at the weekend and freeze a portion of juice for each day of the coming week.
- And finally, don't use homemade juice as a replacement for meals. Make sure you have a varied diet containing protein, fibre, healthy fats and calcium and of course, your nutritious juice and you'll feel like a new person before you know it!
