Earlier in the week, former Pakistan cricketers, Mohammad Asif and Salman Butt had their respective hearings, at The Court of Arbitration Of Sport (CAS), on their appeal against the ICC ban inflicted on them as a result of their part in a spot fixing scandal. Asif appealed the conviction and Butt the sentence given to him. The verdicts by the three-man panel are expected within the next 3 weeks.
What is still evidently clear that the duo are still in complete denial of what is pretty obvious to the rest. The evidence against the former captain and opening bowler were pretty conclusive. They were a part of the deal that was made by their agent, Mazhar Majeed, with the undercover News of the World reporter.
The Pakistani public is very gullible. Some can't take criticism and play the victim card and there are others that make their mind up and will not change their opinion, come whatever may. Butt and Asif are also playing that victim card, it's everyone's fault apart from their own, conveniently forgetting that they were the ones that got involved in fixing.

Coutinho deal sealed
4:55pm Saturday 26th January 2013 in Sport
LIVERPOOL have had an £8.5m bid accepted for Saints target Philippe Coutinho.
Saints were reportedly prepared to pay £10.2m for the Inter Milan midfielder but their interest cooled when it became clear the player was holding out for a move to Merseyside.
Cash-strapped Inter need to sell the 20-year-old Brazil international in order to sign 24-year-old Brazilian midfielder Paulinho from Corinthians before the transfer window shuts.
The sales of Wesley Sneijder, who has sealed an £8.4m move to Galatasary, and Coutinho would easily fund the €15m move for Paulinho

LOG MOUNTAIN — Call it regional championship week, call it the state quarterfinals, either way only the contenders are left and the pretenders have been sent home as the Kentucky high school playoffs are down to the final eight teams in each class.
For the Bell County Bobcats that means another meeting with Louisville Central Friday night. The Yellow Jackets have won four of the past five Class 3A state championships, they entered the season as the favorites for a fifth and have done nothing to change that perception.
The Jackets are 10-2 with both losses coming against Class 6A teams that are also still playing. They dropped a 27-13 decision at St. Xavier and lost 15-14 at undefeated Pleasure Ridge Park in the regular season finale. Central also has wins over 6A Ballard and Dupont Manual to go along with victories over 4A Louisville Western and 2A DeSales, swept their district and defeated Indiana power F.J. Reitz of Evansville in an early season showcase.
Last year Central ended the Bobcats' season with a 26-0 win in this same round of the playoffs. While both teams lost talented running backs to graduation and will have different quarterbacks under center, many of the key players return from that game in Louisville.
While the pre-game hype centers around Mountain boys taking on a team from the big city, the stat sheet shows two teams that are both used to controlling the line of scrimmage and winning in the running game.
Bell County (10-2) has outscored their opponents 441-146 while holding a 3435-1467 advantage in rushing yards. Central has outscored their opponents 382-156 and holds a 3139-1507 rushing edge.
"There's not a whole lot of difference. They still do the same things, they've got a system they believe in," Bell coach Wayne Mills said of the Jackets. "They're kind of a lot like us in that they're going to do what they do. Whichever team executes the best and protects the football will have the best chance to win the game."
The Bobcat ground game, led by senior backs Jonathan Polly and Ryan Collett who have both surpassed 1,000 yards and 20 touchdowns, face a stiff challenge in the Jacket defense. Central is led by a pair of absolute studs in junior linebackers Donald Styles (92 tackles) and Phillip Francis (55 tackles, two interceptions both returned for touchdowns).
The Jacket ground game is led by senior back Deris Cox with over 1400 yards and 16 touchdowns. Senior quarterback Taeshawn Gibbs has added another 700 yards on the ground and 14 scores.
"Louisville Central is going to bring a lot of speed and athleticism to the Mountains," Mills said. "We've played Bryan Station and Lexington Catholic so we've seen a lot of athletes this year and we feel like we're prepared for that. It will be a fun football game, if you like speed and athleticism Log Mountain will be the place to be Friday night."
Leading the defensive charge for the Bobcats are senior linebackers Corey Lee (106 tackles) and D.J. Warwick (87 stops) along with a very active rotation along the defensive front in William Elliott, Jonathan Burnett, Joe Jackson, Brandon Spade, Jeffrey Saylor and Dylan Cox.
While Bell County was advancing to the regional championship game with a 35-14 win over LaRue County, Central was struggling with Wayne County. Gibbs was knocked out of that game with a concussion and junior Sydney Tedford hooked up with senior receiver Devonte Yelder for a 60-yard touchdown pass with 1:18 to play to lift the Jackets to a 21-18 win.
During the regular season, LaRue County played Central tough in a 16-8 loss and Bell County made three eary scores stand up in a 21-7 win over Wayne. While it's a reach to draw too many conclusions from how those games played out, the results do give the Bobcats some hope.
"That's a common opponent and I think it definitely encourages us. We watched that film and the biggest thing with Wayne County is they just played with great effort and so much determination. That's something our kids have got to play with and we just want Friday to hurry up and get here," Mills said.
While Gibbs' status is in a little bit of question heading into Friday's game, Bell County has been playing freshman quarterback Peyton Collett since senior Corey Oslonian went down with a ligament tear in his knee in the second game of the year. Other than missing Oslonian, Bell County is healthier than they've been at this point in the season in several years.
"Besides the loss of Osi early in the year we've been blessed to keep our kids healthy and that's a key this time of year," Mills added.
The Bobcats practiced under the lights at Old Bell High Tuesday evening and focused on handling defensive penetration as well as ball security.
"We can't turn the football over against them, we did that last year and got behind and never could recover. The biggest thing is to secure the football and we've just got to will ourselves to win it," said Mills.
One big factor working in Bell County's favor is that Friday's game will be played on Log Mountain. It's about a four-hour bus ride from Louisville to Pineville and the Bobcats usually perform better in front of a big home crowd.
The game is set for a 7:30 p.m. kickoff and Bell County will be looking to advance to the state semifinals for the fourth time in five seasons.
"This was our goal and to win a regional championship you've got to make it to one. We're here now and we're going to see what we can do," Mills said. "Our kids will come ready to play and do their best to represent Bell County High School and this community with everything they've got."
The winner will host either Monroe County or South Warren in the state semifinals next week while Bourbon County visits Mason County and Breathitt County visits Belfry Friday on the other side of the bracket.

Yesterday, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) issued interim guidance on how the manual medical review process will be implemented in 2013 for outpatient therapy claims that exceed $3,700.
From October 1, 2012, through December 31, 2012, CMS used a prior approval process at $3,700 under which providers would submit a request to their Medicare Administrative Contractors (MAC) for approval of up to 20 visits. With the request, providers would include information from the patients' medical record (eg, progress reports, daily notes, plan of care) to support the need for the additional visits.
For 2013, CMS has replaced the prior approval process with prepayment review, at least for the interim. Under prepayment review, when the patient reaches $3,700 in outpatient therapy services, the MAC will send the provider an additional development request (ADR) asking him or her to submit documentation so that the MAC can determine whether the services are medically necessary. Typically under Medicare, MACs have 60 days to make a determination. However, CMS has requested that with regard to the therapy cap manual medical review process, MACs decide within 10 days of receipt of the documentation whether the services exceeding $3,700 will be paid.
CMS currently is working on a long-term strategy for the manual medical review process.
Physical therapists should consult their MACs' websites for specific information about submitting documentation in response to an ADR.
The Royal Dutch Society for Physical Therapy (KNGF) has made PTJ its official journal. KNGF members will have access to PTJ Online as one of its member benefits. Editor in Chief Rebecca Craik, PT, PhD, FAPTA, notes in her February editorial, "I am delighted to be entering into this relationship with our Dutch colleagues, [who have] made significant contributions to our understanding of the use of measurement tools to examine clinical effectiveness …, advanced our understanding of clinical practice guideline development and clinician adherence to guidelines, as well as our understanding of professional issues such as direct access, continuing education, and physical therapist consultation in primary care." Philip Van der Wees, PT, PhD, who is affiliated with the Scientific Institute for Quality of Healthcare at Radboud University Nijmegen Medical Center and with Maastricht University, was nominated by the Royal Dutch Society and appointed by Craik to serve on PTJ's Editorial Board; he will share his expertise in clinical practice guideline development and in examining clinician adherence to practice guidelines.

APTA's newly established Scope of Practice Task Force is seeking members to develop recommendations to the Board of Directors on the appropriate role and authority of APTA in decisions on scope of practice in physical therapy and recommend a consistent process and criteria to establish current and future physical therapist scope of practice. Those who are interested should respond to the call by completing a volunteer interest profile found on the Volunteer Interest Pool webpage. The first step is creating a "profile" for service. After developing a profile, to be considered for this task force members must then access the "current opportunities for service page" and respond to the questions specific to this task force. The deadline to respond to this call is March 7.

Yesterday, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) finalized provisions in the Affordable Care Act ensuring that health plans offered in the individual and small group markets, both inside and outside of health insurance marketplaces (also called "exchanges") offer a core package of items and services, known as essential health benefits (EHB).
Beginning in 2014, all nongrandfathered health insurance coverage in the individual and small group markets, Medicaid benchmark and benchmark-equivalent plans, and basic health programs (if applicable) will cover EHB, which include items and services in 10 statutory benefit categories, including rehabilitation and habilitation services and devices. These benefits will be equal in scope to a typical employer health plan.
The final rule defines EHB based on a state-specific benchmark plan. States can select a benchmark plan from among several options, including the largest small group private health insurance plan by enrollment in the state. The final rule provides that all plans subject to EHB offer benefits substantially equal to the benefits offered by the benchmark plan.
The final rule also includes standards to protect consumers against discrimination and ensure that benchmark plans offer a full array of EHB benefits and services.
Substitution within EHB categories is still permissible to provide greater choice to consumers and promote plan innovation through coverage and design options. The requirement that any substitution must be actuarially equivalent is retained in the final rule. It is up to each state to set criteria for substitution.
HHS does not provide a federal definition of habilitative services in this final rule. If habilitative services are not yetcovered by the EHB-benchmark plan, then states have the first opportunity to determine which habilitative benefits must be covered by their benchmark plan. States may choose either the definition used by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or Medicaid. If states have not chosen to define habilitative benefits, the health plan issuers' will determine the benefit. This is a transitional policy, and HHS intends to monitor available data regarding coverage of habilitative services.
HHS also finalizes actuarial values (AVs), also called "metal levels," to assist consumers in comparing and selecting health plans by allowing a potential enrollee to compare the relative payment generosity of available plans. Nongrandfathered health insurance plans must meet 1 of 4 specific AVs: 60% for a bronze plan, 70% for a silver plan, 80% for a gold plan, and 90% for a platinum plan.
APTA was highly involved in the processes that determined how EHBs should be defined. The association submitted comments to HHS in response to a December 2011 guidance bulletin, the Center for Consumer Information and Insurance Oversight's January 2012 bulletin, and the Institute of Medicine's report Essential Health Benefits: Balancing Coverage and Cost. APTA also took part in all public stakeholder meetings. Throughout the development of EHB, APTA urged HHS' secretary not to overly define the categories so that practitioners have the flexibility to provide both the type and frequency of care that is medically necessary for each individual.
APTA will post a comprehensive summary on the final rule shortly.

Flu at near epidemic levels
By Randy Tucker
Reports of flu-like sickness and related hospitalizations have surged toward peak levels in Ohio and other parts of the nation in recent weeks and might have resulted in at least one area death, health officials said.
More than half the states in the country, including Ohio, are experiencing high levels of flu activity weeks ahead of the pace of a typical flu season, according to the latest flu report from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. And a disproportionate number of those cases are resulting in hospitalization.
We actually are in the throes of an epidemic, said Catherine Bacheller, director of infectious disease prevention at Kettering Medical Center. In our hospital, weve doubled the number of cases each week for the past couple of weeks.
In Ohio, flu-related hospitalizations climbed to 1,230 from early October through the final week of December 2012, according to the Ohio Department of Health. That compares to 71 hospitalizations in the same period in 2011, although officials are quick to point out that the last flu season was one of the mildest on record.
This year, however, area hospitals are scrambling to keep pace with flu-related emergency room visits and admissions.
The flu season can last from October through April, but cases typically dont begin to peak until January or February, said Bill Wharton of Public Health Dayton & Montgomery County.
The numbers are up quite a bit so far this year, and its happening much earlier than what weve had in the past, according to Wharton, who said flu-related hospitalizations in Montgomery County doubled last week to 14 from seven in the previous week.
Statewide, there were 368 hospitalizations last week more than three times the number of hospitalizations during the first two months of the season.
Still, most of the flu activity in the state was concentrated in the Northeast and East Central regions, which combined for 225 hospitalizations last week, or 61 percent of the total.
There were only 17 hospitalizations in Southwest Ohio last week, including the 14 in Montgomery County.
In Warren County, an unidentified elderly man who tested positive for influenza died over the weekend, but he also suffered from several other chronic co-morbid conditions that could have caused his death. And health officials there havent determined the cause of death.
Overall, Warren County has reported 15 flu-related hospitalizations, which hospital officials described as slightly elevated but close to normal for this time of year.
In Middletown, hospitalizations are rare, but doctors are seeing an increasing number of people with flu-like symptoms, said Jackie Phillips, health commissioner at Middletown City Health Department.
We have seen more influenza than we have in the past year, but nothing alarming, Phillips said. Theres a lot of junk out there, whether its the flu or some other virus. Almost everybody I know has been sick with something. But our ERs (emergency rooms) havent been slammed. And there arent a lot of people missing school or work.
That could change quickly, though, because the flu is unpredictable, said Dr. Mary DiOrio, epidemiologist for the state health department. And the dominant strain in Ohio this year the H3N2 virus has the potential to hit hard and spread quickly, she said.
Were seeing different viruses circulating, and the predominant virus that is circulating right now in Ohio does correlate to a lot of hospitalizations because those viruses tend to cause a bit more severe illness, DiOrio said.
She said the best protection is a flu vaccine.
The good news about the vaccine this year is that so far, the vaccine is a good match for the viruses we are seeing in the population, DiOrio said. Thats why its really important for people to go out and get vaccinated if they havent already done so.
Flu hospitalizations spike
2010 2011 2012
Number of new flu-related hospitalizations reported during the last week of the year 40 6 368
Number of flu-related hospitalizations for flu season between October and December 104 71 1,230

Pretty old photo of him, but meh, it suffices.
My chocolate Labrador, Max. He's seven years old right now and considerably overweight (currently about 115 pounds). But with that said, he's still the most obedient and friendly dog I've ever met. I can't even recall the last time he as much nibbled on somebody. Hell, despite being overweight, he loves it when somebody plays and spends time with him. He's a great dog, and seeing him always puts a smile to my face : )

This may be a little OT but this might fall into entertainment Anyhow, I have a May wedding to attend and people do not dress "to the nines" at any of the weddings I've been to, but they do look nice. My question is I have a nice blouse that really only looks good with black or white slacks. Since it's May I'd like to wear the white, is this inappropriate to wear the white slacks to a wedding? Thanks | |||
Mountain - I don't have an answer for you but I, too, am attending a May wedding - that of my oldest grandchild. After ordering a taupe pair of full pants online and having to return them as being too large, I have decided to wear my black slinky knit skirt or pants instead. I have learned that black is no longer inappropriate at weddings. "We are all here.....because we are not all there." | ||||
Formal etiquette rules rarely change. The one pertaining to white clothing for women guests at weddings probably stands. But, in real life, people twist etiquette rules to make sense in particular situations. My son is getting married next weekend. If I thought that having to buy "rule friendly" clothes a guest perhaps can't afford or doesn't need would keep her from coming, I'd much rather have her be there in the "rule breaking" outfit than not be there at all. In my opinion only, not officially, as long as your clothes cannot be mistaken for the bride's, you'd be okay. Could you include some bright colored accessories such as jewelry, shoes, or a scarf that would take the focus off the all-white top and bottoms? | ||||
Hello mountainbeach, If I were going to the said wedding I would wear the white blouse and white slacks, but would offset them with a colored (my choice would be lilac or pastel color)jacket, belt or accessories. If they didn't specify a certain dress I think you will be ok. As you stated, most are not formal anymore. I have been to some where only the people in my age group or older were "dressed". I was even to one where the youngers dressed in shorts with holes (only a few) and goth, so I think you can almost wear anything anymore and I will be the only one who is scandelized.This message has been edited. Last edited by: peppermintpattitotherescue, Save Planet Earth, it is the only Planet with chocolate!! | ||||
I'm not an etiquette expert by any means but I'd think it would be perfectly fine to wear white slacks to a wedding. Most brides are not going to be in slacks (so no bride confusion there) and I thought it sounded like your blouse goes with white or black but that your blouse wasn't totally white. I agree that it would be good to have some color in the blouse or accessories. Try not to stress about your attire and enjoy yourself. | ||||
I think they have ditched that rule about not wearing white after Labor Day or before Memorial Day. Whatever color your top is, I think it would be perfectly acceptable to wear white slacks. I always admire women who can wear white pants, unfortunately I'm not one of them. It's a rule in my life that I MUST spill or sit on something that would definitely be visible on my white pants! LOL | ||||
I should've clarified that the blouse is a mixture of pink, gray, white and black. So, I wouldn't be head to toe white and mistaken for the bride. Sounds like I can go with the white slacks (yay ) I asked a while back on a fashion board (pertaining to another wedding) about wearing slacks and everyone said NO!!! it's just not appropriate for a woman...wear a dress. I wore a dress and hubby a suit, and we were really out of place. Thanks all | ||||
A colored blouse with nice white slacks is perfectly fine attire for a May wedding so wear them and enjoy the day! Edited to Add: To show how times have changed, a nearby high school district just announced a new dress code for next year. Girls are REQUIRED to wear slacks - no dresses allowed!

I believe as along as you are not all white,you will look beautiful.I have been to many weddings and saw women in all white or even solid red.I dont like that bright of a color at weddings.Some of the younger generation doesnt dress appriately.Jeans,tank tops,ect.LOL | ||||
I agree w/ others...if opting for white pants and in light of your multi colored blouse, you'll be fine. If opting for black, black is acceptable attire for wedding guests these days. In fact, it's acceptable for wedding attendants such as bride's maids as seen on "Say Yes To The Dress". TIPS re. the black pants...they won't reveal a spill of beverage as readily as white. They are also slimming, if that's an issue. | ||||
I also have this problem. Maybe the spilling is cause were so laid back out here. Save Planet Earth, it is the only Planet with chocolate!! | ||||
I love to dress up & so love going to weddings. DH does not. But, way too many times, I see the younger folk in their jeans & tank tops...even in the church. Guess I'm just old fashioned. Your top sounds really pretty & i agree with the others, either white or black slacks will look really pretty. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I've decided to quit my job, drop out of society, and wear live animals as hats." | ||||
I am not a traditionalist by any means nor am I religious, but I am astounded when I see women wearing slacks to either a wedding or a funeral. I know I'm probably stepping on toes, but good grief, can't we dress up for these occasions? | ||||
I do hear what you are saying and don't think you are being stuffy or anything of the like. However, fashions have changed and I, for one, have noticed that it is very difficult to find attractive dresses now days while dressy outfits with pants/slacks suitable for either weddings or funerals are much easier to find. So, at least for me, I think that I am actually "dressing up" for the occasion more appropriately when wearing such an outfit than the type of dresses I have found for sale recently. It seems that most dresses are designed for the young (at least younger than I am! ), are the type that aren't suitable for such occasions or are too elaborate/formal for such occasions - more suited for formal nights on a cruise which I do enjoy, by the way! In the interests of good manners and showing respect for the event (whatever it is), I have come to believe that it is better to fit in with the general atmosphere than to stand out by wearing clothes that clearly are outside what others are wearing. BTW, did you see my post above about the new dress code adopted by our local high school district that PROHIBITS the wearing of dresses and mandates slacks for every student? | ||||
If you are a fan of etiquette expert Emily Post, here's what she says about appropriate wedding guest attire. Have a wonderful time at the wedding. | ||||
aychi, I'm sure you are familiar with the "camel's nose in the tent" principle. By allowing "very dressy" pantsuits, you open the door to cut offs and muscle shirts. | ||||
Yee gads! The wedding season is approaching at our home this summer and I am not looking forward to deciding on what to wear and arriving at the event to be wwwaaaayyyyy overdressed. IMO - if the bride is going to spend more than a week's pay on her gown and all the men in the wedding party are renting formal wear, ie. -tuxedos, then the guests need to show alot of respect and DRESS UP. NO jeans, t-shirts, sweatshirts, polos, shorts, crop pants! Ladies pants in my estimation should only be worn if it is a pantsuit or evening wear separates. No slacks, pants or other causual fabrics worn with a mere top! | ||||
Well, shucks, I'm just gonna throw my 2 cents in. When I was a young bride in the late 70s/early 80s...I had the mindset that you wear a dress to church. If it was freezing cold and miserable dressy pants were ok, but never, ever jeans! I've changed since then. I rarely wear dresses. I own 3 and a few nice skirts. I wear dressy pants or trouser jeans to church these days. Since one of my 2 pair of dress pants are black- I have worn them to a few weddings and felt like I fit in nicely. I really think tanks and jeans are too casual for either event but fashions and styles have sure changed the past few years. When DS1 got married, both the mother of the bride and myself wore formal wear pantsuits. The kids were ok with it. She and I didn't coordinate on purpose,but they were made alike- 3 pieces- pants a shell top and a jacket. All 3 pieces were of the same fabric with bugle bead trim. Hers was a pale grey and mine was brown.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Becky56, | ||||
sms, you are shooting the messenger. Don't you think your concern about dressy pants suits should be directed to Emily Post? She's the one who's dispensing that advice. | ||||
Now.... I am rethinking of what to wear to my cousins funeral service on Sunday.I was going to wear black or dark grey slacks with a very nice dress blouse.It's colors are black,grey(lt.&dark)with very little white.It is design print but not wildly.I had thought of wear dressy capri slacks.They are very loosely wearing and lined. I have several black skirts in differnt styles too.A pretty brown dress and a navy dress with some flower design,very suttle not big or wild. Help??I know people have different views on this.It is a 3 hour car ride.I've been to funerals wear most people wear dressy casuals as well as suits,dresses and capris dressed up very good.This message has been edited.

For myself... I have never worn pants to church or a wedding, but I have worn them to funerals. I guess I am still old-fashion! | ||||
I have had knee replacement surgery and because of the scars down my kneecap, I rarely wear dresses and usually wear slacks. But they are nice slacks (and are lined as well) and the rest of the outfit is as nice as if the bottom part of the outfit were a skirt. However, I notice at church that so many people come in their jeans -- and it's Sunday morning -- not a Saturday evening service! Martha | ||||
I've worn black slacks to both funerals and a wedding. And I fit in just fine. This weekend, I'm going to a wedding where the father of the bride and the groomsmen will be wearing linen slacks and a tommy bahama shirt. I'll be wearing a crinkled pleat skirt and top. And we'll all likely be barefoot since it'll be at the beach. www.floridafarmgirlsworld.blogspot.com Life isn't about how to survive the storm, but how to dance in the rain. | ||||
DS3 had an outdoor wedding. It was beautful. The men in the wedding party, including him, wore khaki pants and linen shirts with brown leather flip flops. I wore a crinkle skirt outfit. Sad irony is, I paid more for that outfit than for all of the mother of the bride/groom outfits of my other kids put together! I do love it though and everyone has worn their outfits many times since. | ||||
Goodness... A wedding, or any event... Unless you are actually IN the wedding party, I say wear what you feel that you look good in and feel good in? Do be aware that photos are often taken, so it is good to try to look nice and appropriate in whatever you're wearing. Up dressing a bit is always the safest plan, as long as you feel you look good wearing it. If you are uncomfortable, shoes hurt, pulling at your hem or such...you are not going to enjoy or look forward to the event, and that is one of the main reasons to attend (share the joy). All those "rules" have been tabled in my book, especially colors of clothes. I look at, enjoy and talk to people...not what they are wearing. And have taught my kids the same. | ||||
I'll be wearing an evening pants and formal top set (satin camisole and sheer, sparkling overblouse) at son's wedding this Saturday. How anyone can say that's less "dressy" than a skirt is puzzling. That it will lead to some guy thinking that a muscle shirt and cutoffs is OK is simply a bizarre stretch. Fashion marches on. At some point in history, fashion mavens bemoaned the fact that women stopped wearing bustles and that Japanese women stopped binding their feet. The notion of dresses for the sake of dresses is (thankfully) headed the same way. | ||||
I totally agree with Lurah. I would only wear pants to a wedding (& have) when it was either a pants suit (dressy) or very dressy separates (velvet and/or glitter) for winter weddings. I think a casual blouse and white pants is too casual for any wedding. I think a pretty pants suit would be okay, it's a little dressier than plain white pants and an unmatching top. You can wear white pants if the blouse was dressy. No one is gonna mistake you for the bride ever!!! This is just my opinion. I realize that customs are different all over the country. I am used to very DRESSY WEDDINGS only!!! I do wear pants to funerals. I don't get dressed up for funerals, but I look appropriate. I wear all black and that's it. (My DH wears a suit and tie) | ||||
We are going to a beach wedding for DH's cousin's son in 3 weeks. I just bought a very nice navy and white embroidered cropped pants outfit and white dress sandals. I thought about wearing a tea length gauzey skirt and top, but I'm still old fashioned. I NEVER wear a dress or skirt without stockings. When I thought about wearing stockings to the beach in full Florida sun in June, that quickly made up my mind about the white cropped pants and sandals. If I can find a white or navy/white summer hat that would be perfect. | ||||
I also am attending a informal wedding, (no church)but the men are wearing dress slacks and dress shirts. My DH has been complaining about wearing dress shoes and wants to wear his sneakers (tennis shoes) with the dress pants. I always make him wear what is correct but in this case we are just two old people attending a wedding and who is going to care, notice or anything else, other then me. I let him have his way on this one! I have two dresses that I just purchased and I hate to wear dresses but------!I will decide later which one.As to the white slacks question, go for it! html | ||||

In 2009 the first underground cable linking Africa to high-speed Internet access went live.
The 17,000km long network took two years to complete and came with the promise of boosting the region's industry and commerce.
Three years later millions of Africans now have access to the Internet - primarily through 3G services on their mobile phones.
Mobile data offers the most affordable access to the web, and figures from the International Telecommunications Union show 31 million Africans now have mobile broadband subscriptions.
There's no denying the African Internet economy has come a long way. But building a sustainable internet infrastructure across a continent of one billion people continues to present major challenges, especially when it comes to connecting rural towns and villages.
In large urban areas there are lots of ways to get people online, via traditional terrestrial technologies. In remote regions, where communities are often cut off, it's much more difficult for mobile operators to backhaul 3G data affordably.
So how to you overcome this connectivity challenge?
It seems the answer lies, not with the cables below our feet, but with the skies above.
"For communities that are really isolated the only reasonable choice is satellite," said Terry Neumann the Corporate Marketing Manager for satellite communications firm iDirect.
"Mobile operators are looking to new and different technologies for ways to connect a larger population base -- the chance to connect the unconnected."

Christian Geologists on Noah's Flood: Biblical and Scientific Shortcomings of Flood Geology
Geologists Davidson and Wolgemuth address the widely promulgated notion that the Flood can account for the earth's complex geology, and that all genuine Christians should accept this viewpoint.
How should we interpret the Genesis flood account?
Genesis 6-9 tells the fascinating story of Noah, the Ark, and the Flood. Some Christians interpret the text to mean that the biblical flood must have covered the entire globe. They also work to explain the evidence in rocks and fossils in terms of this world-wide flood. Other Christians do not feel the text requires that the flood be global, but could have covered the small region of earth known to Noah. The scientific and historical evidence does not support a global flood, but is consistent with a catastrophic regional flood. Beyond its place in history, the Genesis flood teaches us about human depravity, faith, obedience, divine judgment, grace and mercy.

Why should Christians consider evolutionary creation?
Because evolution is a challenging subject, many Christians are tempted to simply ignore or reject it. Yet considering evolutionary creation has important benefits for Christians both in our relationship with the Creator, and with our relationships with other people—believers and non-Christians alike. First, Christians should study evolution because (like all the natural sciences) it is the study of God's creation. Creation itself is a complementary revelation to what is communicated in the Scriptures, and through it God shows how and when he brought about life, to his honor and glory. Studying the creation is also an invitation into a deeper understanding of the attributes and character of Father, Son and Spirit. Second, considering evolutionary creation aids the Church in its gospel mission, supporting young Christians in their faith, helping answer critics, and equipping us to engage effectively in the wider culture. An anti-evolution attitude can harm Christian young people by presenting them with a false choice between pursuing science OR holding to faith. Similarly, a hostile attitude towards evolution can hinder evangelism when seekers hear that they must reject science to follow Christ. On the other hand, studying evolution as a God-ordained process helps Christians refute arguments that science encourages an atheistic worldview. Furthermore, as the church engages front-page issues raised by the rapid growth in science, medicine, and technology, a Christ-centered voice in such areas as bioethics will be stronger if based on a thorough understanding of the natural sciences, including evolution.

Adventist Origins of Young Earth Creationism
Many evangelicals believe that Young Earth Creationism is the only authentic, biblical way for Christians to understand origins, and that until the advent of Darwin's theory of evolution, it was the only view held by Christians. However, in this excerpt from Saving Darwin, Karl Giberson explains that Young Earth Creationism's origins are surprisingly recent.
How are the ages of the Earth and universe calculated?
Many independent measurements have established that the Earth and the universe are billions of years old. Geologists have found annual layers in glaciers that can be counted back 740,000 years. Using the known rate of change in radio-active elements (radiometric dating), some Earth rocks have been shown to be billions of years old, while the oldest solar system rocks are dated at 4.6 billion years. Astronomers use the distance to galaxies and the speed of light to calculate that the light has been traveling for billions of years. The expansion of the universe gives an age for the universe as a whole: 13.7 billion years old.

The How of Creation: Parameters for Gracious and Fruitful Dialogue
Hastings provides a biblical and theological basis for healthy and fruitful dialogue on the theology and science of origins.
Ephesians 4:7-16: Moving the Science/Faith Discussion Forward
In this essay, Hastings looks at "front edge" areas for promoting healthy dialogue in the field of science and Christian theology, areas which are specifically theological in nature.
Does thermodynamics disprove evolution?
A common argument against biological evolution is that the theory contradicts the second law of thermodynamics. The second law says that disorder, or entropy, always increases or stays the same over time. How then can evolution produce more complex life forms over time? The answer is that the second law is only valid in closed systems with no external sources of energy. Since the Earth receives continual energy from the Sun, the second law does not apply.

This Backlink Beast Review can help your sites soar to the top of the search engines. SEO can be hard to grasp for a new person, but it is essential for website owners. An effective SEO campaign can boost your website's search ranking and attract more visitors.
Begin by doing ample keyword research. You should determine what the most effective keywords to incorporate into your content and titles will be. This allows you to know what potential visitors are looking up in your category. Using these phrases across your site will make your site's rankings skyrocket.
Social media sites are a valuable tool in search engine optimization. Connecting with your customers on a personal level can really make all the difference.
To improve your article's SEO, base them on keywords. When you put keywords in that are relevant to your content, you can ensure that a search engine will ferret them out. This makes it more likely for new readers to end up on your website. You want to add the keyword into the title, the introduction, and a couple times within the body of the text.
It's a bad idea to use one, isolated page to collect all of your links to other websites. Adding links into your content makes them part of your page and easy to use. Readers don't really like context-less links, and search engines penalize pages with a high link-to-text ratio. Pages created with attention given to the formatting, and with the inclusion of text, will make the page look more professional and will give search engines context for better ranking.
If you use a shared server, you must ensure that you do not share a proxy with a site that engages in unethical practices or is otherwise banned. If you do share your proxy with a site that is banned for spamming or other fraudulent activities, your rankings could be lowered, thereby decreasing the traffic to your site.

While Bell County at Harlan County headlines tonight's high school football action in the area, it's not the most important game on the schedule. Both of those teams are guaranteed homefield throughout the playoffs in their respective classes. Meanwhile Cumberland Gap hosts Grainger in a battle to determine second place in District 2-AA and a win will just about ensure a home playoff game for the Panthers.
"It's for second in the conference and everyone's real excited about that," said CGHS coach Neal Pucciarelli. "We've not been in the playoffs in three seasons and the top two finishers are automatic qualifiers. We're excited to have the opportunity."
He said his Panthers (6-3, 3-2) are pretty healthy coming into the game and have had a good week of practice after surviving a desperate Scott County team 14-13 last Friday. Grainger (4-5, 3-2) is coming off a 48-7 loss to Greeneville.
"Grainger is a big, physical team like Scott and this is the best year they've had in quite some time as well," Pucciarelli said.
The teams have met in the regular season finale each of the last three years (both were put into the Blue Ridge Athletic Conference in 2009) and in that time the matchup has never failed to be exciting.
In 2009 the Panthers won at Grainger 26-24 on a touchdown pass with about a minute to play. In 2010 the Grizzlies won in overtime, 29-28, at Cumberland Gap after the Panthers missed a short field goal at the end of regulation. Last year Cumberland Gap held on for a 14-7 win in a driving rain storm at Grainger.
"It's been very competitive since we came into the league with them," said Pucciarelli.
The Panthers will try to become the first home team to win in the series.
Elsewhere tonight, the Pineville Mountain Lions (4-5) host Leslie County (5-4) for Senior Night while the Middlesboro Yellow Jackets (3-6) travel to Lynn Camp (3-6) to close out the regular season.

The concept of style and move variance came into play in DMC3. DMC1 has really not withstood the test of time due to the rest of the franchise, but it is what laid the foundation for a lot of what came afterward
DMC1 did not have the crazy combo potential that came in DMC3. The only JC I can think of was shotgun hiking.In contrast your weapons and DT were more powerful than they are in DMC3.

Industrial Networking
Controller Area Network (CAN) is now the commonest means for connecting microprocessing units. As a result of its automotive roots, it offers high data rates with robustness at low cost. Industry-specific application layers such as DeviceNET and CANopen ensure interoperatibility between products. Regular "Hands-On" CAN Tutorials held at our UK headquarters will give you the knowledge required to evaluate CAN for use in a future project or start work immediately in applying CAN in your current work.
PROFIBUS (Process Field Bus) is a standard for field bus communication in automation technology and was first promoted (1989) by BMBF (German department of education and research). It should not be confused with the PROFINET standard for industrial Ethernet.
Industrial Ethernet (IE) refers to the use of the Ethernet family of computer network technologies in an industrial environment, for automation and process control. A number of techniques are used to adapt Ethernet for the needs of industrial processes, which require real time behavior. By using standard Ethernet, automation systems from different manufacturers can be interconnected throughout a process plant. Industrial Ethernet takes advantage of the relatively larger marketplace for computer interconnections using Ethernet to reduce cost and improve performance of communications between industrial controllers.
IE components used in plant process areas must be designed to work in harsh environments of temperature extremes, humidity, and vibration that exceed the ranges for information technology equipment intended for installation in controlled environments.(Source - Wikipedia)

Tax on your savings in bank and building society accounts
Posted on: 15th May 2013 by: James Honey
You pay tax on your savings interest in the tax year that the interest is paid to you, or credited to your account, even if you've earned part of it in previous tax years. Savings income normally has 20 per cent tax taken off before you receive it.
This is confirmed by the entry 'net interest' on your bank or building society statement. Your bank or building society should send you a 'Certificate of Tax Deducted' or a statement containing this information after the end of each tax year (5 April). If you need one but haven't received one, just ask. You can also often get the figures you need from your passbook or from your statements of account.
Quick House Sale Investigation
Posted on: 29th Apr 2013 by: James Honey
In April 2013, the Office of Fair trading (OFT) launched a study into the activities within the 'Quick House Sale' market, where providers offer to buy a house or find a third party buyer very quickly, usually at a discount from the full market value. The OFT is concerned that while providers may offer a valuable service, some practices might lead to homeowners receiving much less for their property than it is worth – any losses could be very high.

Could you be losing a pension down a 'black hole'?
Posted on: 18th Apr 2013 by: James Honey

Auto Enrolment
Posted on: 15th Apr 2013 by: James Honey
In 1901 there were ten people of working age for every person who'd retired. A hundred years later, the ratio was three to one – and by 2050 the Department for Work and Pensions estimates that there will only be two people of working age for every person receiving a pension.

April Market Commentary
Posted on: 4th Apr 2013 by: James Honey
On March 20th Chancellor of the Exchequer, George Osborne, would deliver his Budget – and with the UK in very real danger of slipping into a 'triple-dip' recession and the Conservatives trailing in the opinion polls, it was simply going to be the most important speech the Chancellor had ever delivered.

The Budget Summary 2013
Posted on: 21st Mar 2013 by: James Honey
To say that George Osborne faced a difficult task when he stood up to deliver his Budget speech on 20th March was one of the year's major understatements. Both economically and politically, the backdrop to his Budget was bleak, particularly with an increase of 48,000 in youth unemployment announced barely three hours before he stood up to speak.
March Market Commentary
Posted on: 11th Mar 2013 by: CamOuse
Politics seems to impact more and more on economics – and somehow, always at the end of the month.
December ended with the last minute deal which averted the Fiscal Cliff in the US; January with Spanish premier Mariano Rajoy denying allegations of secret payments and at the end of February there were yet more problems in the US – and an election in Italy.
The New Proposals on Long Term Care and what they mean for your Financial Planning

Don't let your pension be 'liberated' before time
Posted on: 27th Feb 2013 by: James Honey
Don't let your pension be 'liberated' before time – you won't be! A hard-hitting multi-agency information campaign for consumers and pensions professionals, led by the Pensions Regulator, has been launched to crackdown on predators claiming to be able to release pensions cash as a loan or lump sum before the law allows.
Could you run your own business?
Posted on: 12th Feb 2013 by: James Honey

Financial planning for the end of Tax Year
Posted on: 1st Feb 2013 by: James Honey

Anti-Wall Streeters inspire Halloween costumes
NEW YORK — Dressed as protesters, complete with toy megaphone, Mitch Robinson and his wife unrolled a sleeping bag and "occupied" their friends' Halloween party. Unlike the real-life Occupy Wall Street demonstrators, they had a detailed, numbered list of demands for their hosts.
