Lloyd's Australian Policyholders - How to Make a Complaint
Find out how to make a complaint and the complaint handling procedure.
Find out how to make a complaint and the complaint handling procedure.
In Australia, Lloyd's is proud to be a member of the Insurance Council of Australia. Lloyd's has adopted the General Insurance Code of Practice subject to certain specific qualifications. You can obtain a copy of the code at www.codeofpractice.com.au
Our aim is to provide the highest service to our Australian policyholders and, to this end, we have developed the following procedures for the fair handling of complaints from Lloyd's policyholders.
How Can We Help?
There are established procedures for dealing with complaints and disputes regarding your policy or claim. Policyholders may be able to take advantage of the complaints service, as may third-party motor vehicle claimants who are uninsured and where the amount in dispute is less than $15,000.
Stage One
Any enquiry or complaint relating to a Lloyd's policy or claim should be addressed to either your Lloyd's insurance intermediary ("the coverholder") or to the administrator handling your claim in the first instance – in most cases this will resolve your grievance.
They will respond to your complaint within 15 business days provided they have all necessary information and have completed any investigation required. Where further information, assessment or investigation is required, they will agree to reasonable alternative timeframes with you. You will also be kept informed of the progress of your complaint.
Stage Two
In the unlikely event that this does not resolve the matter or you are not satisfied with the way your complaint has been dealt with, you should contact:
Lloyd's Australia Limited
Level 9, 1 O'Connell St
Sydney NSW 2000
Email: email@example.com
Tel: + 61 (02) 8298 0783
Fax: + 61 (02) 8298 0788
When you lodge your dispute with us, we will usually require the following information:
• Name, address and telephone number of the policyholder;
• Details of the policy concerned (policy and/or claim reference numbers, etc);
• Details of the insurance intermediary through whom the policy was obtained;
• Reasons why you are dissatisfied;
• Copies of any supporting documentation you believe may assist us in addressing your dispute appropriately.
Following receipt of your complaint, you will be advised whether your dispute will be handled by Lloyd's Australia or the Lloyd's Complaints team in the UK, or what other avenues are available to you:
• Where your complaint is eligibe for referral to the Australian Financial Complaints Authority (AFCA), your complaint will generally be reviewed by a person at Lloyd's Australia with appropriate authority to deal with your dispute.
• Where your complaint is not eligible for referral to the AFCA, Lloyd's Australia will refer your complaint to the Lloyd's Complaints team in the UK if it falls within the jurisdiction of the UK Financial Ombudsman Service, who will review your complaint and will liaise directly with you.
• For all other matters you will be advised of what other avenues may be available to you.
How Long Will the Stage Two Process Take?
Your complaint will be acknowledged in writing within 5 business days of receipt, and you will be kept informed of the progress of our review of your complaint at least every 10 business days.
The length of time required to resolve a particular dispute will depend on the individual issues raised, however in most cases you will receive a full written response to your complaint within 15 business days of receipt, provided we have received all necessary information and have completed any investigation required.
External Dispute Resolution
If your complaint is not resolved in a manner satisfactory to you or we do not resolve your complaint within 45 calendar days of receiving it at Stage 1, you may refer the matter to AFCA. AFCA can be contacted by post GPO Box 3, Melbourne Vic 3001, phone 1800 931 678, email firstname.lastname@example.com or via their website www.afca.org.au
AFCA is an independent body that operates nationally in Australia and aims to resolve disputes between you and your insurer. Your dispute must be referred to AFCA within 2 years of the date of our final decision. Determinations made by AFCA are binding upon us.
Clients not eligible for referral to AFCA, may be eligible for referral to the Financial Ombudsman Service (UK). Such referral must occur within 6 months of the final decision by the Complaints team at Lloyd's. Further details will be provided with their final decision to you.
You can contact Lloyd's in the UK at:

So long, fare well…
As nation shakes its weary head at Amy (oh the irony) Winehouse making the headlines for doing what many of us suspected she`d do. What occurred to me is that the media which hounded Amy could do a lot more to manage the output, and maybe aid a change in pop culture if it were a little more supportive and a little less sensationalist or sanctimonious in its headlines. Less flash! This sits uncomfortably next to the 91 who suffered a similar fate offshore in Norway at the hands of the 32 year old `Christian` (!) Anders Behring Breivik – however for them, this was not an act of death caused by their own hand.
So long and farewell then to our previous perceptions of Norway as a country of Fiords, Viking`s and robust fishermen. This second least densly populated country in Europe has extensive reserves of pertolium, natural gas, minerals, lumber, seafood, fresh water & Hydropower. On a per-head basis Norway is the world's largest producer of oil and natural gas outside of the middle east. Now though, it will no longer be remembered for its poor taste in clothing, appalling performances in the Eurovision song contest or its influence in setting up the United Nations. It will now be associated with the largest single act of violence since the 2004 Madrid bombings.
So self righteous is the right wing sad bastard, to whom this face booking, professed conservative, blond haired & blue eyed Nazi sympathising is the norm, that he couldn`t wait to give himself up – at the slighted chance of a fair fight – so he could start to tell us all about his cowardly act, and his twisted philosophy on life. Goes to show, you never can tell what or whom will cause the next random act of terror. Though I`d look to his doting mother who seems to have wrapped him in cotton wools and to whom he can`t put a foot wrong. Am sure she`s thinking about this and other issues as she seeks a hiding place from a questioning media and baying crowds. Though my current thoughts are with the – other – broken hearted mothers, and family members who lost loved ones and who`s lives will be devastated by this selfish, un-warranted little prick.
Moving on. Seems the Greek rescue package will not do much good for its credit ratings as `Fitch` announces it still considers Greece in default – even if its agreed by the IMF that it is a `selective default`. Germany has stepped up to do its bit as Angela Merkel hides her frustration behind a diplomatically stout support for the euro zone bail out. Even though lenders will only get back 79 Euros for every 100 invested?!! Let`s be honest, it`s in freefall.
Meanwhile (BBC business pages), Morgan Stanley has seen its second quarter revenues rise by 17%, beating market expectations and making Europe look daft. This US bank's net revenues totalled $9.3bn (£5.7bn) in the three months to June, up from $8bn a year earlier.
Morgan made a net loss of $558m, or 38 cents per share, during the quarter. However, the loss was caused by a one-off $1.7bn charge, without which Morgan would have made a profit of 64 cents. The charge was caused by an investor converting its Morgan shares. The change by the investor in question – Japanese bank Mitsubishi UFJ Financial – had the effect of diluting Morgan's common shares.
Morgan is just the latest US banking group to report its second quarter results, and analysts said its figures were among the strongest so far, but I wouldn`t get the Champaign out just yet, Obama`s still struggling to get talks going with congress to avert a catastrophic dept default for the US!
Let`s be honest, it`s in freefall? Let`s see. Thomas Cook has recently announced a £200m sell off of unwanted or surplus assets to deflect losses and shore up its finances. It`s blaming poor performances due to the issues in North Africa, rising fuel prices and the global recession. Looks like only Morgan Stanley employees can afford to go anywhere at the moment. Travelex have expressed an interest in buying some or all of the assets. There must be brass to be earned in foreign currency exchange then?
This is mirrored in recent announcement from Easy Jet that the `budget` or `low cost` option are going to be a thing of the past. Again sighting, recession, fuel prices and environmental tax levies as a root cause of its problem. Stelios argued in the Sunday Times that we shouldn`t really call someone with a Louis Vuitton bag a going to Paris a budget traveller so it`s more than right that they can change the name, image, business positioning or perception of such things.
The low cost business model put together in the 1990`s is no longer credible in the business world of 2011, especially set against the much tighter financing opportunities and easy loans being curtailed by the banks. We are not daft! We know that the sneaky t@ts (EG Ryan air) have been back loading the subjective price opportunities (baggage allowance, premier boarding, booking fees and the like) for long enough. Time to step up I say and let`s be open and honest about the state of the global economy. Cost is cost and the days of dirt cheap flights are unravelling like a cheap jumper from your granny! Fuel used to account for 10% of air travel prime costs, now its 40% work it out for yourselves!!
Weetabix! There's money to be made in breakfast cereal. Lion Capital own it, and are looking to buy out St Louise based `Post Cereal's` who were part of the Kraft group until 2007 and make Grape nut and Raised Bran. This deal is worth a forecast £1.5bn! Conga food is also looking around the option and they made their fortune from Peter Pan peanut butter! Anyway, if it goes through, Lion will be up there with Kellogg`s. Food for thought? Certainly food to make you regular!
Best way to finish this week is to shake our heads and doff our collective hats to Brighton council who`ve decided to ban a gay pride `picnic on the beach`. It all came to a stop after a facebook viral phenomena took hold following a bloke finding that, what started out as twenty fiends meeting up to watch the march on the mod friendly coast line, had in fact ended up with 8000 like minded individuals all wanting to join in! The council leaders decided that it was best to ban it on the pebbly grounds of noise abatement – citing it was a rave in the making. What would have happened to poor old Jesus and his 5000 bread & fish eating followers if he tried it on in today`s world, is a matter for some further contemplation on a Sunday afternoon…
No doubt there will be something on the matter from Fatboy slims twitter account or Zoe Balls facebook page shortly.
That`s it from me – home to watch the Landsbanki share price wobble as it looks to sell of its frozen food store `Iceland` for £1.2bn to maybe Morrison or Wal-Mart.

.. but not how you think.
I decided I want to do a series of videos about the differences of figs and dolls. And I started with the size one because that's the first thing you'll notice by looking at them - the size. And I made it into a battle just because I can. I thought it would be fun and it might get decent views.
Well, I was right about the views.
People do not like it when somebody says the minifigs aren't perfect. And they let you know. Presumably, all of them because the number of (negative) comments and thumbs down is off the charts for this one.
I don't mind. This signals the Algorithm that the video is engaging and that is a good thing.
I also completely forgot to say: I have a channel trailer! I wanted to do it ever since I started the channel so I'm happy I can move that off the to-do list.
Maybe someday I'll be able to clear the whole to-do list I made at the beginning.

History and Mission
The Jacob Marley Foundation (JMF) is a private foundation established by Chris and Traci Quackenbush in 1993 with a major focus on improving people's lives through education. Many educational, literary, charitable and religious programs have been initiated and other already existing programs have been funded by JMF. The Foundation's center of concentration is in two communities, Bay Shore and Manhasset, both on Long Island, NY. We are a "hands on group" who look to help better the lives of our neighbors.
College scholarships based on need and academic achievement have been developed for graduating seniors upon entrance into college in Bay Shore and in Manhasset.
Scholarships have been established at New York University School Law School, The University of North Carolina, Union College, Bay Shore High School. Manhasset High School, and Riverhead High School.
Numerous scholarships are given each year to a variety of summer day camps including sports camps, art camps, and technology camps.
During the Christmas season, as many as 600 children benefit from a variety of social events that include arts and crafts, game playing and gift giving. The Foundation adopts families in need at Christmas time providing them with food baskets, clothing, books and toys.
JMF affords students educational and cultural opportunities including Christmas musicals, Broadway plays, baseball games and the circus.
The Foundation funds an after school homework and enrichment program called Adventures In Learning (AIL) . Specialized instruction in homework skills, health education, foreign language, computer skills and arts and crafts provided by certified teachers is made available to approximately 70 students daily.
Mercy Haven, a safe haven for the disadvantaged and mentally ill, receives a yearly JMF grant. This support helps Mercy Haven to provide stable supportive housing, develop independent living skills, encourage education and job readiness and remove legal and systemic challenges to stable housing.


text: The problem today is not that some people are hearing the voice of God, but that most people aren't. Unfortunately, while we continue down the road of "progress", many of us--especially us men who are being looked to to step forward and lead by giving our lives away in unselfish love--choose not to spend time even trying to place ourselves in an environment where we give the Father the opportunity to speak to us and form our hearts. Perhaps the greatest crisis in our culture and in our own inability to become the men we have been made to be is that we do not take prayer seriously, and we do not seriously pray.Read More

A grizzly bear gets up on he back legs to see what was going on in the distance.
American Marten
Unlike human, wildlife always has to be at their peak. They are always being challenged by the environment, by members of their own species for food, territory and for mates. Competition from other species for food and territory and depending on where they fall on the food chain, they always have to be two steps ahead of becoming someone's meal. Unless they are on the top part of the food chain, they can't over eat and became an easy prey. When it gets dark, the species that stay active, it's even more important to stay healthy. That leads me to this American marten I came across with a damaged left eye that has turned green and is shrinking. Being out there middle of the wilderness, every day it survives with one eye, it's overcoming extreme odds against nature.
This is M122, his reputation seems to gets exaggerated more and more each year and other large grizzlies or even a large black bear often gets confused for him. By reading what's out there on social media, you would think he's the only large grizzly in the Bow Valley, if not in Banff NP. In the Bow Valley there are four large dominant male grizzlies, M122, M126, M134 and M136. M134 was not been seen last year, or at least no records of him being spotted. He might have decided to go to another valley at the start of the season and then stayed there. For a number of years M134 has always been the bigger male and this year M126 and M136 look to be the same size as the famous M122, if not slightly larger. For M122, it was never just about the size, it was also about his attitude toward other bears. M134 would run away from him, twice within few days M136 gave way to M122 this last fall. M122 may no longer be as dominant as he was the last number of years, this last summer he was showing some pretty big scars, on his shoulder and on his face. The larger males always get tested for mating and for food. If we were to shave one like a sheep, we would be amazed to see all the scars on their body from the various battles and some from trying to mate. M122 is 18 to 19 years of age now, I hope he'll be around for several more years. He will become less and less dominant, but will always be an important grizzly on the landscape.
This pack of three, coyotes had quite the morning, most likely they were working on a carcass that was in the area for the previous 5 days. With no bears and wolves in the area, they had the carcass all to them. But the morning this picture was taken, all that changed. First a larger grizzly passed through, most likely with not much to chew on, the grizzly could only imagine what might have been. Then soon after a wolf pack walked through the area, the coyotes would have been smart to give them lots of space, the wolves are not a fan of coyotes. After some time passed another large grizzly passed through the area. The coyotes howled/barked at him. He was walking ahead of this pack by about few hundred meters, who I got to see bit later. Never a boring day out there.
Red Fox
I'm pretty sure it was this red fox I came across during the summer season. Near a parking lot, eating something with people just meters away from it taking pictures. People meters away from wildlife are a national park is a red flag. I got closer in my car, popped out to have a look what it was eating, it was human food. Back in my car, got even closer made loud noise to scare off the fox. People were not happy with me, I then explained what human food can result in. Sharing the story about members of a wolf pack getting their first human food meters from the spot. Becoming food conditioned, resulting in two wolves being put down and the packs new litter of six not surviving the summer. The look on people's faces became more understanding, as I picked up all the bread (a bag worth)crumbs left next to an electrical box. The fox is doing well, spotted it few times hunting for its natural food.
Northern Pygmy Owl
Between December 14, 2018 through January 5, 2019 the 119th Christmas Bird Count will be taking place this season. A great way for people to get together and see how our feathered friends are dealing with the winter. The results get sent to Audubon, who can compare this year results with the previous and look for trends. If you live in the Bow Valley or visiting the Bow Valley on Saturday December 14. 2018 and would like to play a role. Pop on to the WWW for contacts and further info. by heading over to the "bowvalleynaturalists.org" site. Not a site for those who enjoy nature au naturel, for sure not middle of December in Banff. But a Bow Valley Group who deals with natural history and conservation, including where around the towns of Canmore and Banff this year CBC will be taking place.
It was a cold morning, the sunrise was not what I was hoping for, so I decided to go for a walk along the river, going in and out of the forest next to it. With each hour it was getting warmer, I could hear the birds every now and then going through the forest. Too high in the trees for pictures. I looked in the distance, something was looking toward me, a male moose. I started to move, it moved, and soon it was out of view. Ten minutes later I was on at a higher elevation, and could see another male moose, it was younger and eating plants from the river's bottom. This moose did not look toward me and soon left. As I was eating and now taking in the warmth from the sun, I could hear not too far from me something was moving to the left of me, first through the snow and then trough the river. The forest I was standing by was blocking my view. Soon after the first moose I saw that day or another moose of the same size was standing across the river, about 110 meters front of me, looking at me. It crossed the river and was still looking at me. I was ready to move away quickly if needed, it was the rut season and the bulls are not too happy around this time. The bull walked past the small trees into the open and was still looking toward me. Still safe distance, I moved out of the trees for the moose to have a good look at me. It stood still and looked at me for a minute and then started walking toward the river to the right of me. That's when I started taking pictures of the male. It did not look back, crossed the river and then faded into the forest.

Thanks for that. Funny and true and straight to the point.ReplyDelete
Reminded me of something Margaret Kimberley wrote in the Black Commentator a couple of years ago:
"Paranoia is usually the reserve of conspiracy theorists of every political stripe, fans of science fiction, and Black people. We are given a pass because of the horrific treatment meted out to us throughout American history. Slavery, lynching, the Tuskegee experiment and COINTELPRO give us paranoia rights while others are mocked and dismissed for expressing their suspicions of malfeasance by the powerful. But other Americans would be better served if they acknowledged their own need to question authority and to doubt the benevolence of their leaders
Because the times are ripe for all thoughtful men and women to be suspicious it might be helpful for democracy if all Americans tried to think like Black people. Everyone should start slowly. It isn't necessary to dwell on the increased likelihood of a mortgage denial or police brutality. Just ask, "If I were Black, would I believe that terror threats always take place when Bush's poll numbers drop?""
P.S. Bill MaHer!

Starting a business is not an easy task, growing the business is much more difficult. Without a dexterous skill-set in business and financial management, a business will go down the drain irrespective of the product or services being offered. Little wonder there has been a high failure rate of business especially with small and medium scale enterprise. The purpose of this executive masterclass is to address the knowledge gap in business and innovation management and create a new set of entrepreneurs who are equipped with the right knowledge to survive in a dynamically changing business landscape of the 21st century.
Considering the demographic and geographic distribution of Osun state, it was concluded that the Masterclass will hold at the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Nigeria as we can reach more young and passionate entrepreneurs there. The Masterclass will run for 4 hours and for four Saturdays, making a total of 16 contact hours. With her current academic calendar, it will hold on October 13, 20, 27 and November 3, 2018. Three categories of students will be admitted into the Greenergie Academy. Each categories has different service offerings and at different registration cost. With the support and partnership of other international organizations, the registrations fees has been greatly subsidized in order to reach more people. We are able to make this huge sacrifice on our part, because our organization and partners are indeed passionate about developing local competency for global relevance, especially amidst the young and vibrant in Africa

In the country of men
Nine-year-old Suleiman is just awakening to the wider world, beyond the games on the hot pavement outside his home and beyond the loving embrace of his parents.
He becomes the man of the house when his father goes away on business—but then he sees his father, standing in the market square in a pair of dark glasses. Suddenly the wider world becomes a frightening place where parents lie and questions go unanswered. Suleiman turns to his mother, who, under the cover of night, entrusts him with the secret story of her childhood.
Praise for In the country of men
"Exquisite.... full of essential truths: the more you read the more you feel the childhood described in it is yours." — Nadeem Aslam
"A poignant story of a child exposed too early to the brutalities of Libyan politics." — J. M. Coetzee
"In the Country of Men understands that love - despite betrayal, grief, mistrust, rage, political terror - nevetheless remains love." — Anne Michaels
"A powerful portrait of a family.... shares themes with Ian McEwan's Atonement and Michael Frayn's Spies, and can hold its head high in such singular company." — The Times
"Matar writes beautifully.... He is a nuanced observer with a gift for conveying both absurdity and raw emotion" — The Guardian
"What emerges from this moving and graceful novel is the insistence that memories of love will survive the country of men" — The Independent
"Graceful.... Quietly, but with the insistence of a tolling bell, Matar lays bare for Suleiman both public and private worlds of overlapping male power, role models, standards and styles. At its intimate center, the novel calibrates the boy's shifting, decreasingly innocent perspective as he himself becomes implicated by cruelty and betrayal."— The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Chardon High School Shooting: Official Statements
CLEVELAND – Several Ohio officials issued statements regarding the Chardon High School shooting Monday morning.
Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine issued the following statement following the tragic shooting:
"Today's shooting is a terrible tragedy and our thoughts and prayers go out to the victims and their families as well as the entire student body and staff at Chardon High School.The Attorney General's Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation (BCI) is on the scene and will be assisting local law enforcement in processing the crime scene. BCI and our office will do all we can to help in this investigation."
State Superintendent Stan Heffner issued this statement regarding the shooting:
"My deepest sympathies are with the students and their families, staff and teachers of the Chardon School District and the Chardon community as they work through the tragic incident on their school campus this morning. Please keep them in your thoughts today. I appreciate the quick response to this situation by Superintendent Bergandt and law enforcement and first responders to protect the students and to quickly apprehend the persons responsible for this horrific act."
Governor John R. Kasich issued the following statement in response to the shooting:
"Please join me in praying for the students who've been injured in this horrible crime. Praise goes to the Chardon Police and Geauga County Sheriff's office for quickly getting this situation under control. I've pledged Ohio's full support to them, the school and the local community in this difficult time."
Ohio Senator Sherrod Brown released the following statement:
"My thoughts and prayers are with the Chardon community today. I join Ohioans across the state in praying for the speedy recovery of the students that have been injured," Brown said. "I stand ready to provide whatever assistance possible to the victims and their families—as well as to local, state, and federal law enforcement to ensure that the suspect is brought to justice."
State Senator John Eklund issued the following statement Monday morning in response to the shooting:
"I ask that you join me in extending the sincerest thoughts and prayers to the students and families that have been affected by this morning's tragedy. I would also like to commend the swift and effective efforts of local law enforcement entities as they continue to assess this situation. Our hearts and minds will remain with the Chardon community throughout this time."
U.S. Secretary Arne Duncan issued the following statement Monday:
"The shootings at Chardon High School are an unspeakable tragedy, and our hearts go out to the entire community as they grieve this terrible and senseless loss. It's still too early to know yet why a student took a firearm to school and shot his classmates. But preliminary reports indicate that if it were not for the extraordinary courage of a teacher who chased the shooter out of the school, and if not for the speedy reaction of school leaders, the toll of these shootings could have been even worse. Our thoughts today are with the children, the teachers, and the parents of Chardon. The Department has been in touch with the superintendent's office to offer our help and support. And we will do everything in our power in coming weeks and months to help support the Chardon community as it recovers from this tragedy."
Representative Steven C. LaTourette spoke Wednesday on the House Floor, asking the House of Representatives to join him him in a moment of silence:
"I thank the speaker and I thank my colleagues for their attention.
Madam Speaker, sadly, in a set of occurrences that have become all too frequent in our country, on 7:45 a.m. in Ohio, about 25 miles east of Cleveland, allegedly a student brought a gun into the cafeteria of the high school, opened fire and shot five of the students. As you stand here today, three of those students have succumbed to the injuries received and have passed away. Two continue to be under medical care. I would indicate that in these tragedies there are also items of heroism, and an assistant coach, Frank Hall, chased the gunman out of the high school at great risk to himself but tragedy.
Madam Speaker, on behalf of all of our colleagues, I would ask the House to observe a moment of silence in honor of the fallen, the staff at the school, their families and the city of Chardon."

From LEADS to LEAPSS – Rethinking Party Discipline in Westminster Democracies: Paul Thomas (Carleton University)
Abstract: This paper challenges the LEADS (Loyalty Elicited through Advancement, Discipline, and Socialization) model of party cohesion in Westminster parliamentary democracies advanced by Christopher Kam (2009). High levels of party cohesion among elected representatives, especially in formal votes on legislation, are regularly seen as a barrier to representative democracy in Canada and elsewhere, with legislators supporting their parties' positions over constituency interests. While some cohesion is to be expected due to shared values and ideology among members of the same party, legislators also face strong incentives to defect on party positions that are unpopular with their electors. Parties therefore employ a number of tools to actively cultivate and enforce cohesion among their members. Kam (2009) identifies three such tools – advancement, discipline/sanctions, and socialization – that parties use for this purpose. However, this model ignores the role that legislators' participation in the making of party or government decisions plays in securing loyalty. In particular, such participation, even if largely symbolic, gives members a sense of ownership over party positions, making them more likely to support and defend those position in public. Drawing on evidence from the national parliaments in Canada and the UK and Canada's provincial legislatures, this paper proposes to expand Kam's model from LEADS to LEAPSS – Loyalty Elicited through Advancement, Participation, Sanctions, and Socialization. Doing so provides a more thorough account of party cohesion and helps to explain variation in cohesion between cases.
Debates Over Old-age Pensions in the Canadian Parliament Since 1900: Florence Vallée-Dubois (Université de Montréal)
Abstract: The issue of old-age pensions has often marked Canadian parliamentary debates. While the first pension program emerged from a multi-partisan coalition in 1927, following legislations on this subject have produced numerous divisions in the House of Commons. Pensions not only divided Parliament between government and opposition, but also created divisions within parties (Bryden 1974). Furthermore, while Liberal and Conservative MPs sometimes agreed on how to reform pensions (Battle 1997), their positions often went against the orientations taken by third parties. In other instances, members of the Liberal and New Democratic parties seemed to agree on how to amend existing programs (Babich and Béland 2009). Clearly, pensions have been a source of conflict within Parliament. It is therefore a fascinating topic for researchers interested in parliamentary divisions and party issue positions. This research addresses the following questions: How did old-age pensions divide MPs since the beginning of the 20th century? How did political debates on this topic change throughout time? To answer these questions, this research relies on topic modeling to analyze debates from the Hansard since 1900 (more than three million speeches obtained from Lipad). This method allows us to identify the content and framing of pension debates, and to understand how this question divided parties over time. Studying how MPs take position on the issue of pensions should give us insights on how social welfare questions have been politicized in Canada. This project will also contribute to the literature on party politics, and how issues shape parties' positions and strategic behavior.

First look: 'Penn Zero' premieres with holiday special
Add one more cartoon to the parade of holiday specials coming your way the next month.
However, this is one a little special: The Christmas-tinged episode of Penn Zero: Part-Time Hero — airing Dec. 5 (7 p.m. ET/PT) on Disney XD — will serve as a preview of the series that's slated to premiere early next year.
Suburban kid Penn Zero (voiced by Thomas Middleditch) goes to school during the day but because his heroic mom Vonnie (Lea Thompson) and dad Brock (Gary Cole) are stuck in another dimension called the "Most Dangerous World Imaginable," he inherits the gig of saving this world and others with his pals Sashi (Tania Gunadi) and Boone (Adam DeVine) as they dimension-hop to places that need them and battle the evil part-time bad guy Rippen (Alfred Molina) and his minion Larry (Larry Wilmore).
When he's not being a part-time hero, Penn lives with his Aunt Rose (Rosie Perez) and Uncle Chuck (Lenny Venito) but does check in often with his parents via the MUHU (Multi-Universe Hologram Uplink) — which is pretty much a really cool version of Skype.
The holiday special "Northpole Down" finds Penn feeling sad because it's his first Christmas without his mom and dad around. He has to turn around the bah-humbug mind-set to travel to the North Pole to help Santa Claus. What makes this episode extra cool, besides the weather: The Fonz himself, Henry Winkler, guest-stars as The Snowman.

McGill Back Mechanic
A day of learning, where we will show you how to assess your client's low back pain, remove the triggers and then progress them back into training, creating low back and whole body resilience.
The Back Mechanic course is for trainers, clinicians and performance specialists who deal with clients with back pain. Both lectures and workshops provide delegates with background information on the mechanisms that cause back pain and how these can be assessed and addressed with movement and exercise programming that adhere to the principles of Professor McGill. This process creates clients who are then liberated to begin training. Then specific principles are workshopped to create pain-free and injury resilient movement/motor patterns, that enables the trainer and clinician to move on to more typical programming.
During the course, they will systematically work through the self-assessment tests to source the client's pain triggers and then work towards the next step of removing the cause and gaining competency in spine hygiene and movement tools. The final step will be putting everything together and building the foundation for a pain-free and resilient back.
Participants will leave at the end of the day with a greater understanding of common low back problems and how to clearly navigate your way around them, or refer to a medical professional, if required.

text: sheherizade3 9,415 Posted January 20 15 hours ago, chickfactor said: Yeah, that was... tough to swallow. I like that she "chose life." She picked up a hammer to bludgeon the stepmother in her (fully justified) moment of rage, but she chose to stop because the specter of Se-Kyung pulled her back. Obviously it's her subconscious that was holding her back. If she went ahead and killed her stepmother, then she crosses over to the dark side. She will lose her ability to live her life, to help others, and her daughter will lose a mother. I think she loves her sister, Se-Kyung #2, who is a victim just like anyone and did not do anything wrong. She maybe wants to give Se-Kyung #2 a chance to have a real relationship with her mother. (They obviously had a bad one while she was growing up.) Her actions are continuing to allow stepmother to remain in the lives of Se-Kyung #2 and Eun-Seo. Stepmother has another chance to live, and perhaps one day, a chance to atone. By being a good mother to them, perhaps she will have a chance to make up for having been a bad mother in the past. They haven't reached atonement and forgiveness (I like that the show ends on an ambiguous note) - but Woo-Kyung is giving them a chance because "life is a possibility." Possibility for healing, I suppose? I guess it is comforting to know that people can heal, or at least hope to heal - from anything, even the most unimaginable horrors. I don't know, I'm still trying to work this out in my mind. It's tough. I honestly don't get it, but ultimately, the message is to forgive and try to heal. The show ended with Woo-Kyung and Specter Se-Kyung embracing each other, and it was really lovely and powerful. I agree with you that bludgeoning her stepmother would be stooping to her level... that of a murderess. One cannot right a wrong by committing another wrong. I was actually cringing watching the scene while silently screaming "don't do it." I understand your premise of healing but without atonement on the part of her stepmother first, there will never be healing. As the drama concluded, there never was any form of atonement from the stepmother. So that is my problem with her character. She's narcissistic, self-absorbed, lying and cruel woman proven by the fact that, even after she killed Woo-Kyung's sister, she continued to treat her grown stepdaughter and her own daughter with the same cruelty sans the physical abuse. In spite of Woo-Kyung's attempts to win her love, she never reciprocated and insulted WK every chance she gets. She even connived with WK's ex husband to have custody of her daughter. She may even be suffering from a personality disorder. First step for WK is to ensure that her stepmother get counselling, maybe even check her in a mental institution. At the same time, WK should give time for herself to heal, let her sister mend physically and mentally, allowing her to rid herself of all the hate and resentments she felt for her mother. As a mother myself, I will never allow my daughter to be exposed to this poor excuse of a human being. I'm surprised that there's statute of limitation for murder in South Korea. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Power of 3 is back for the final 1/3 of 2017
Focusing on 3 goals at a time per month was a perfect way to start the year, but for the past couple of months I decided NOT to set any goals as I had yet another comeback from injury.
I just wanted to be in the moment and not worry about crossing things off a list.
About a week ago, I decided to bring back "power of 3" to get myself refocused on the final 1/3 of the year. I was pretty sure the fall races I signed up for would be out, but I was ready to be serious about running goals again.
My goals were going to be simple -- getting my long run back to 8-10 miles (I was already back to 6), some kind of cross training goal (probably trying out new machines at the gym), and something about doing some kind of race (until last week, I still was confident I could do the Virginia 10 Miler).
But then ... my foot hurt after I wore new shoes on Saturday for an easy hike. This time it was the right side of my body -- the opposite side of my problems from the past year.
So ... I don't know what's going on, but I'm tired of running, getting injured, getting better, then repeating. I'm not sad about it -- I'm just flat out exhausted from the process.
The good thing? I've done a lot of cross training since my last injury in June. Lifting weights, riding my bike and a little bit on an elliptical have worked well -- they've helped my running more than I ever thought possible. And those are the things I'm ready to focus completely on for September.
I almost decided to not have any goals for this month as I deal with another injury, but that would get me nowhere. It's time for my "Power of 3" mindset to return in September and for the final 1/3 of 2017.
So with all this said, here are my 3 goals for this month...
- DON'T run more than a mile at a time. The only running I plan to do is a tenth of a mile or two with my dog once the pain fully goes away.
- Increase max weight lifting by 10%. I'll be testing myself today on a few machines to figure out what my true max is and then try to increase that this month.
- Ride my bike and stationary bike at least 60 miles. With no running, this is my next best thing to have for a distance goal. It seems low, but I'm also planning to do aerobic workouts on the elliptical.

Wanna peek behind the curtain?
You see blank canvases for sale at art and craft supply stores. You see finished artwork on cafe and gallery walls, in online marketplaces like Etsy.com, at the dentist's office, and even at Target.
But you don't often get to sneak a peek at the art being made. You don't normally see all the awkward stages a painting goes through—how it got started, how it gets shepherded along, and the many changes of direction the artist might take—before it's declared "finished."
Step behind the curtain, my friends! I'm going to show you what I'm working on...
(F.Y.I. I started with a store-bought canvas that measures 15" x 30" and 1.5" deep.)
So now I'll look at it for a few days, trying to decide if it needs anything else. This one came together faster than most—in less than a week—but I like the stage it's landed in.
What do you guys think: Does it look finished??
And what about you: Want to play with collage techniques and acrylic paint? Gather your friends together and I'll create a class for you. Here's what people are saying:
"I had done a lot of digital art [so] I became afraid of the more 'tactile' arts like painting and collage. Recently I bought a starter kit of acrylic paints but I continued to stare at a blank canvas. Taking this class got my hands wet and lessened a lot of my anxiety to start painting. Thank you." - Trisha A.
"You are the best kind of teacher—not too pushy and not too passive! Also the studio and materials were top-notch. Thanks so much!" - Michelle B.

Although a lot of the time we think we are leading healthy lives, there may be a key component to wellness that we are missing. A naturopathic doctor can help fine tune your lifestyle to ensure you are doing everything you can to be healthy. Lifestyle changes can come in many forms, including mental/emotional changes. Physical ailments can be a result of emotional issues. We offer patients a safe place to talk about any emotional issues. The time spent with patients, listening to their story and offering a space to heal is a very important component to healing.
What kind of Lifestyle recommendations might be recommended?
Education around toxins in your environment that could be contributing to illness, and how to remove them.
Exercise plans - We are firm believers in meeting you where you are at and working up from there. Ultimately building a plan that is "do-able" and setting realistic goals are so important in setting up an exercise plan.
Sleep hygiene
