Pienaar - from Bok captain to bank chairman
Francois Pienaar is not a man given to regrets, it's not in his highly focused nature. But he does reveal that not playing in the Hong Kong Sevens might be one of them.
'I might have played in 1993 or 1994, but coming from South Africa, we were heading into our rugby season and coaches back then wouldn't take the risk with youngsters for fear of injuries. Now the Sevens is used to blood youngsters, but it was very different back then.'
Pienaar may be perceived by some as being elusive, even aloof. When he captained his country to that famous victory at the 1995 World Cup, he seemed a man of steely reserve. A man who might hold to the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle quote that 'mediocrity knows nothing higher than itself', and perhaps not tolerate imperfection.
In fact, he's just incredibly driven. 'To succeed at professional rugby, you have to be. I have known far more talented players than me. To go places, you have to sacrifice quite a bit, and that takes discipline, there is no 'X' gene of success, there's only hard work,' he says.
He's also humble and happy to speak of less glamorous times. 'I came from the wrong side of the railway tracks and I was fortunate enough to win two scholarships [for cricket and rugby] to the University of Johannesburg. It is here that I met my wife-to-be, Nerine.
'We were doing the same two degrees and are both barristers by trade, although I've never practised, she did. She gave our two sons their brains and good looks.'
Pienaar is also a firm believer in timing. Winning the World Cup in 1995 added impetus to what he defines as 'Modern South Africa'.
The way he expresses it makes listeners feel as passionate about South Africa as he does. Both South Africa and New Zealand - the fellow southern hemisphere giants they beat in that World Cup - share one thing in common. When it comes to rugby, winning is not the only thing. It's everything.
'Our country expects us to win,' he says. 'When we won on our home ground in 1995, it was at the beginning of a new era and the groundswell of support was phenomenal. At that time our motto was 'one team, one country'. We were blessed to have Mandela - an incredible leader. We were swept up in the tide of that new South Africa.
'That win really helped unite the country in so many ways. I couldn't believe the scenes in the streets afterwards, the ticker tape parade, the uplifting nature of it all. I didn't expect it, nor did I expect South Africa to unite like that.
'I can still go out and meet people in remote rural areas today and they have not forgotten how this unity felt in those early days and they still feel it. Sometimes they're people who are not at all interested in rugby.
'Our economy is growing from strength to strength. A lot of the world has been impressed by the new South Africa's successes. There were many around the world who sat with bated breath and didn't expect it to succeed as much as it has.
Despite this growth, he headed to England to be 'a Sarries man'.
'We went to England for a year or so, and ended up staying for six. I started out as player for the Saracens Rugby Club, and then moved to being coach and chief executive. They hired me to manage sponsorship, which is the lifeblood of rugby as an entertainment industry, and the role grew.'
These days, Pienaar is helping his country's economy to grow further as the First National Bank's chairman of the Western Cape region.
Although the company's headquarters is in Johannesburg, he is 'blessed' to live in Cape Town by choice.
'It's one of the most beautiful cities in the world. The things some take for granted are free there; clean air, beaches, mountains, our children can ride horses, swim and roam outside.'
Ever a man with a plan, Pienaar says he has always broken his life down into five- to six-year goals. 'My next goal is to spend time with family and our boys, Jean and Stephan, who are seven and nine, and to capitalise on my banking career.
'As I've just turned 40, life is also about checks and balances, and it's even more of a time to reassess. To succeed at anything, you have to push yourself where you've not been before, out of your comfort zone. You have to take risks, you have to make mistakes, and you have to make new mistakes, and keep making them all your life and learning from them.
'Sport is a wonderful education. You earn respect through it, you don't demand it.
'If your team win, you win. If your team lose, you have to accept it. And you have to accept your mistakes. They are great lessons for life and business, too,' he adds.
Pienaar might be from the wrong side of the tracks, but his train is well and truly on it and hurtling full speed ahead.

text: London (ANI): Prince Williams lover Kate Middleton is unruffled and continuing working at her parents mail order warehouse, even though her mother is worried that she may never marry the Royal Prince. She has been happily helping her parents Carole and Michael with the Christmas run-up, printing address labels and packing parcels packing, despite the fact that Prince William has not proposed to her even after six years of courtship. Kates mother is more than worried about the future of her relationship with the Prince, British tabloid The Sun reports. Although William and Kate have not seen much of each other recently, they did get away last weekend to a shoot in Norfolk. It was being predicted that William would pop the question to Kate Middleton this Christmas, but the claims dampened after William had a change of heart and decided to quit military to become a full-time working royal.

27 Weeks
WOW!! I can't believe that I am already 27 weeks! That means we only have 13 more weeks until we get to meet you---OK, give or take a little. We have been pretty busy the last few months traveling, but you should be happy to know that we are all done until after you are born. Let's see all the places you have been while in my belly---March-TN, April-Orlando, May-NC, June-GA, July-Daytona Beach and VT!! That is A LOT of places, but you have been a wonderful traveler. We go a week from Monday to have another ultrasound--we are hoping that you will cooperate so when we have your Reveal Party on the 27th, we can find out if you are a boy or girl. If you don't reveal what you are, we are still going to have the party and reveal the boy name and girl name--your Mimi has been trying so hard to get me to spill the beans, but my lips have been sealed. Well, little one...it is getting late and this mommy is pretty tired, so I'm going to say good night, sweet dreams and I love you!
Long overdue...again!
It seems more and more lately that my titles for the journal entries are entitled "Long Over Due." At least it is not talking about me being past my due date! It seems that as I get further and further along in this pregnancy, I have a harder time keeping up with regular things. I am still puzzled that with Josiah I was responsible for 20 kids every day, and I don't remember being as tired as I am with keeping up with Josiah and Sophie!
So much has gone on in the last few weeks. Chris' mom came to stay for a week, so Chris and I could go to Daytona Beach with the youth group. This was the first time that I have left the kids this long, so it was a big deal for me, but God was good in helping me not be too distracted by missing them. We left on a Saturday and headed to Goldsboro, NC for a two days. It was nice to be able to visit with family and friends and worship at our old church. We got up Monday morning and drove the rest of the way to FL. While in FL, we got to worship with Chris Tomlin and hear some wonderful messages from Louie Giglio. It was so AWESOME to see God working in the lives of the youth and be a part of that. Sure, I know who all the youth are and know some things about them, but this was my first time to really have some undistracted time with them and really get to know them. Most Sundays, I have to head out to bring the kids home for their nap, so I don't get to stay for youth group. This was definitely a special treat to spend this much time with them. While we were there, we had a bit of a scare. I started bleeding one afternoon. I have spotted with the other two, but this completely different. Chris and I decided it was best for me to go to the ER to be checked out. You better believe that I was fervently praying that everything would be alright--we've had quite a few friends recently have some complications with pregnancy, so I was pretty worried. While driving to the ER, I just got this overwhelming peace that no matter what everything was going to be OK. I've never trusted God like this before--for those that know me, I am a planner and worrier. Chris said a prayer for me and the baby and into the ER we went. While there, they ran a few tests and then wanted to do a pelvic exam. While doing the pelvic exam, the doctor said she couldn't find ANYTHING wrong...that there was NOT even a single trace of me bleeding...no dried up blood or anything. We had to wait a little bit for the other test results and to be discharged. The doctor told me to go home and stay off my feet for 24 to 48 hours. On the way back to the hotel, I asked Chris if this was the healing that he had mentioned earlier in the week. (He made the comment that the only thing that would make this week over the top was to have a healing happen). All we can do is praise God for healing me and keeping our little one safe.
We got back from our trip the next Saturday and had a week to get our clothes cleaned and packed for our trip to VT--did I mention that our dryer died while we were gone to FL, so we had to air dry everything?
We left for VT Sunday night around the kids' bed time. We were thinking that they would fall asleep shortly after we got in the car, but let's just say it took them 3 hours to FINALLY fall asleep. Josiah did sleep from 10pm to 5am. Sophie slept from 10pm to 1am. She got up and chatted with Chris for about an hour and then went back to sleep until 530am when we arrived in VT. Chris was a super driver--he drove the WHOLE way. I kept getting up to check on him, but not once did he ask me to drive. He got about 24 hours of books on tape--he said that would keep him up and sure enough it did. We spent the first couple of days with just the four of us. It was so relaxing to be surrounded by the mountains, grass and lake. The kids had so much fun running around and just being outside. They had no problems sleeping at nap and bed time each day. Josiah was able to go fishing with Chris, had his first motor boat ride, went tubing and had a ride in the kayak. Sophie went for a ride in the motor boat--she LOVED it and went kayaking. We really enjoyed our time away from the big city and really enjoyed the quietness around us. On Wednesday, my mom and niece arrived along with some of my cousins and one of my aunts. Life got a little chaotic trying to keep up with everyone, but it reminded me of when I was little, and we would go to my grandparents' camp.
While we were there, we got to go see my gram. Sophie LOVED Little Grammy. She wanted to sit with Little Grammy on her bed or get a ride from her in the wheel chair. Josiah liked all the attention he got from the other patients along with Little Grammy. I'm so thankful that we were able to visit with her as much as we did because we don't know how much longer she will be around. I know the kids won't remember the visit, but at least they will be able to see pictures and read about their visit with her.
We left to head back home on Saturday, but only drove part way. We stopped in PA to see the Crayola Factory. The kids had a WONDERFUL time there. It was a great way to finish up our family trip. We decided this will be our last trip until after baby is born.
So the next few months will go by pretty quickly as we prepare for our Reveal Party, get ready to start back with school, celebrate my birthday, kick off the fall at church, attend youth group activities, start back to MOPS, continue with swim lessons, and we can't leave out a visit to the apple orchard and pumpkin patch. So as you can see, the next 13 weeks should go by pretty fast! I will try not to let too much time pass between updates between now and when baby arrives, but there are no guarentees!

LONDON (Reuters) - Libya is expecting nearly $2 billion in new foreign direct investment, Libya's privatisation and investment secretary said on Thursday.
"We have over $2 billion operating in FDI in Libya and we have almost $2 billion in process," Mahmud al-Ftise told Reuters on the sidelines of a Libya investment conference in London, without giving a time frame for the investment.
"This number is humble but we are really relaxed because the numbers are increasing. Libya has very big potential."
Libya is also working on attracting investment totalling around $2.7 billion in the downstream oil industry, al-Ftise added.
International investors see huge untapped potential for growth in the North African country, which was starved of investment during years of Socialist policies and international sanctions.
Libya's relations with the West took a leap forward in 2003 when it gave up banned weapons programmes and again last year when it agreed with the United States to settle compensation claims for attacks, including the 1988 Lockerbie airliner bombing.
Gaddafi's foreign-educated son, Saif al-Islam, has helped push through economic reform measures, and the capital is now dotted with construction cranes building new hotels and business centres.
But some investors' enthusiasm has been tempered by red-tape, a creaking bureaucracy and uncertainty over how well protected property rights are in Libya.
Foreign investors complain of obstacles such as restrictions on visas.
Al-Ftise said Libya was beginning to introduce visas for investors on arrival at Libyan airports, rather than from individual embassies.
"That is starting now, we are hoping it will come in probably after a month," he said.
However, he said relaxation on visas was a two-way process with countries such as Britain.
"If you ease things here, we will ease things there."
Libya has privatised more than 100 companies since 2003 in industries including oil refining, tourism and real estate, of which 29 are 100 percent foreign owned.
The oil and gas sector still dominates the economy and is the destination for most foreign investment. BP and Exxon Mobil are among the international oil majors active in the sector.
Libyan banks are allowed to enter partnership agreements with foreign banks but the foreign partners are restricted to a 49 percent stake. Al-Ftise said foreign investors can take 100 percent ownership in other sectors.
Abdulmagid el-Mansuri, chairman of the industry ministry's foreign investment committee, also told Reuters that Libya was planning free trade zones for individual countries, in addition to Libya's existing free trade zone in Misurata.
"We are suggesting that countries have special free trade zones, that for example China takes an area. We are targeting potential investors like the U.S., UK, France, Germany, Italy and the Far East. They are all showing an interest because of our location."
El-Mansuri said Libya would clamp down on investors' use of non-Libyan agents when fixing deals in the country, but investors should deal directly with Libyans.
"It's not fair, there should be direct contact with Libyans. The government is going to enforce the law on this quite strongly."

- This article is about a Tezwan. You may be looking for the articles on the Bajoran Keena or her mirror universe counterpart..
Keena was a female Tezwan who was employed by the government. She was sent to check on the contraband shipments sent by Presidential Chief of Staff Koll Azernal and Federation Minister of Military Intelligence Nelino Quafina; she found Lirwon's team dead, likely killed by loyalist forces loyal to deposed Prime Minister Kinchawn, who intended to capture the shipments and use them to blackmail Bilok and the Federation.

My old high school gym/health teacher (female, I graduated Clas of 14) asked me out on a date. what should I do? Can she still get in trouble for it? She would always make flirtatious comments or remarks toward me and I would make some back, as banter, but I never thought she was remotely serious. She is extremely attractive, both personality and physically. She started working there my senior year she is 26 now and I'm turning 20 in a month or two.
Most Helpful Girl
It not illegal, you are over 18 years old. What makes it bad is when your over 18 and still in high school. So no, she can't get in trouble for that. But I would not encourage it. Do you seriously want to date and have sex with an ex teacher, who you could God forbid get a kid from her? Like I said, not illegal, but not encouraged. But that is your choice. I wouldn't dare.00|00|0
Most Helpful Guy
Since she is no longer your teacher, she cannot get in trouble. If I liked the teacher, I would go for it without any doubt.00|00|0

text: Oh my gosh, I didn't want this episode to end... I was so hooked on this episode and didn't want to get off my couch to go to the restroom, get myself a drink from the kitchen, etc. unless it was commercial break. I wish it was already the Season 4 finale because I want to see if they Walter, Jesse or anyone else will kill Gus. Walter packing the things for the family and telling them to stay at Hank's house so they can be save was awesome. I wonder what happened to Mike because he hasn't appear since the last episode when he was at the hospital. I wonder if he either died or the hospital is still recovering him. Hopefully, the Season 4 finale will explain it because I'm a little confused if Mike is going to make it or not. Moving on, the whole storyline was excellent. Jesse seeing that someone poisoned his little son was very intense. Jesse coming over to Walter's house and aiming his gun at Walter because he thinks that Walter poisoned Jesse's little son was so freakin' intense. Walter helping out Jesse about Gus and all that was very good. I hope Walter and Jesse's partnership comes back since I've always joined their partnership in Seasons 1-3 especially when they cook. In this season, they really didn't have a lot of partnership but it was still good. The very ending was making me really shake because I thought Walter OR Jesse were going to kill Gus but they didn't. I wonder if Gus will finally be killed in the Season 4 finale next Sunday night. It will be so freakin' intense if Gus is finally died. Overall, I wish it was the Season 4 finale already. 10/10

#19 Psychology Destroys Spiritual Counseling:
Citizens Commission for Human Rights:
Prior to the influence of psychology and psychiatry pastoral counseling was one of the most respected and vital community activities of ministers of religion for centuries. It had always been the task of the clergy to minister to the spiritual needs of their parishioners. By referring to their religious doctrines they helped give meaning to life by providing spiritual solace to those in their care.
The dictionary defines "pastor" as one as a shepherd and spiritual guide and describes "counseling" as exchanging ideas but from latin counseling is described as wisdom and prudence. This constitutes a major barrier to psychiatry's infiltration of churches because of the prime target for behavioral redesign. With ministers and theologists carrying the false gospel of mental hygiene pastoral conference became the focus of a concerted attack! Chisholm used World War 2 as evidence of traditional religion's failure to provide the solution to man's inhumanity to man.
In its place psychology and psychiatry began to peddle their superior brand of scientifically validated counseling. By 1952 83% of 109 seminaries and graduate theological schools surveyed in America had one or more courses on psychology. By 1961 between 8,000 and 9,000 clergymen in the United States had taken psychologically based "clinical pastoral" college courses.
Those who have sought spiritual guidance and moral instruction from the late forties onward have increasingly been the recipients of techniques and programs designed to bring the standards, attitudes, and behavior of individuals in line with mental hygiene. In Ed Bulkley book, "Why Christians Can't Trust Psychology" he states:
"Few pastors are willing to take the time to examine the evidence, consider the implications, confront the deceptions, and inform their people about psychology's failure to pass as a mental health science." He also adds, "Christian Colleges and Seminaries have bought into this incredible deception and now enthusiastically encourage christians to submit to the insights, methods, and findings of secular psychology.

Bush's stem cell veto: Whom does it save?
Consider this scenario: Many years from now, some great-granddaughter of President George W. Bush is crippled in a car accident. There are treatments available that will heal her wounded spinal cord. But the doctor shakes his head and says, "I'm sorry, your great-grandfather didn't support our research, so we're not going to help you."
That would be cruel, right? Turning your back on someone in need?
No crueler than what Bush did last week.
There are people dying in this country from conditions that might be cured through embryonic stem cell research. Their children may be prone to similar afflictions.
Yet with a staged backdrop that was as hypocritical as it was arrogant, Bush used the first veto of his presidency to put a kibosh on funding more stem cell research. This, despite 63 yes votes in the Senate and 70% of Americans being in favor of it.
In a presidency already peppered with questionable decisions, this may go down as the most stubborn and selfish of them all.
Now, put down your pens if you're going to write me about abortion, because you'll be falling into the very trap that the president and his handlers set for you: to make you believe this is all about that issue. It is not.
Keep one thing in mind as we discuss this -- the embryos in question here are being thrown away. Disposed of. Tossed out. And thanks to this veto, they will continue to be. Bush never mentioned this once in his well-orchestrated event. But it's true.
Bill carefully constructed
The bill that Bush vetoed was painfully constructed to avoid abuse. It insisted that only extra, discarded embryos from fertility clinics -- and only when the donor of those embryos gave written approval and was not paid for them -- could be used for research.
Yet Bush made it seem as if scientists would be grabbing babies from mothers' wombs.
"This bill would support the taking of innocent human life ..." he said. "Each of these human embryos is a unique human life with inherent dignity and matchless value."
OK. If Bush's believes that, why isn't he closing down every fertility clinic in America right now? Almost any woman who goes in for fertility treatments ends up producing more embryos than are implanted. According to Dr. Sue O'Shea, the director of the Michigan Center for Human Embryonic Stem Cell Research, "per treatment, approximately 20 to 30 individual embryos get thrown away."
That's per woman, per treatment. If, as Bush insists, these embryos are little people, that's 20-30 murders per patient, right?
Where is the outrage?
Thousands of embryos available
Instead, with babies crying behind him, Bush ignored that question and proudly noted that embryos could be adopted, as some mothers in the room had done. So? How would this bill have stopped that? According to Sen. Arlen Specter and others, there have only been around 128 adoptions of such embryos in the last nine years. And since there are currently around 400,000 frozen embryos, clearly anyone who wants to adopt one can do so. That still leaves the unused ones to be thrown out.
And if you do that, you are surely showing them less respect than using them for potential cures for Alzheimer's, diabetes or ALS.
"Crossing this line would be a mistake," Bush said. But those are code words for what this is all about: making it look, sound and feel like the abortion debate. Yet, much as this pains people to hear, abortion is legal in America. So fetuses can be aborted but tiny cells about to be thrown out can't be used for research? We don't see the hypocrisy in that?
We're heard all the tired objections: We have enough stem cells. You can get them elsewhere. Scientists have negated these arguments. Even usual Bush-supporters such as Nancy Reagan and Bill Frist supported this bill. The research will go on -- despite Bush -- through private funding and in foreign countries. But it will be slower, and future patients who might be saved will die.
You wonder if one of those future patients will be one of Bush's great-grandchildren. If so, I hope that person is given help. It would be a kinder fate than what great-granddaddy just delivered to others.

I really don't get it. One minute it's hotter than the sun and the next, it's colder than the moon. Figure it out? I probably never will....but in the meantime, I'll take the hits because they keep on coming.
There's some talk going 'round town
That you really don't give a damn
They say you really put me down
When I'm doing the best I can
I gave you all of my love
I even gave you my body
Tell me, baby, ain't that enough?
What more do you want me to do?
I play the fool when we're together
But I cry when we're apart, yeah
I couldn't do you no better
Don't break what left of my broken heart, baby
Why you wanna treat me so bad
When you know I love you?
How can you do this to me
When you know I care?
Why you wanna treat me so bad
When you know I love you?
You know, I try so hard
To keep you satisfied
Sometimes you play the part
Sometimes you're so full of pride
And if it's still good to ya
Why you wanna treat me so bad?
You used to love it when I'd do you
You used to say I was the best you'd ever had
I play the fool when we're together
I give you everything I can, yeah
And if it's still good to ya
There's something that I can't understand
Why you wanna treat me so bad
When you know I love you?
How can you do this to me
When you know I care?
Why you wanna treat me so bad
When you know I love you?

thank you for the memories.....
This is our last goodbye
I hate to feel the love between us die
But it's over
Just hear this and then i'll go
You gave me more to live for
More than you'll ever know
This is our last embrace
Must I dream and always see your face
Why can't we overcome this wall
Well, maybe it's just because i didn't know you at all
Kiss me, please kiss me
But kiss me out of desire, babe, and not consolation
You know it makes me so angry 'cause i know that in time
I'll only make you cry, this is our last goodbye
Did you say 'no, this can't happen to me,'
And did you rush to the phone to call
Was there a voice unkind in the back of your mind
Saying maybe you didn't know him at all
You didn't know him at all, oh, you didn't know
Well, the bells out in the church tower chime
Burning clues into this heart of mine
Thinking so hard on her soft eyes and the memories
Offer signs that it's over... it's over
-jeff buckley
i sincerely hope he makes you as happy as i would have.
thank you for the memories.

i don't care anymore
pretending that it doesn't bother me
it's not the best form of therapy
i'm sitting here along and thinking of you
watching these channels turn with every click of this button
the music in my head hasn't been the same since you walked away
i thought i gave you a reason to stay
but oh, it turns out i was wrong again
that seems to be the theme these days
would it be worth it to call you again?
probably not, but i'm willing to try it
your voicemail has never pissed me off more
so i'm going to prevent myself from hating it again

all you have to do is ask me and you know i'll do it
all you have to do is kiss me like you do
and i become your fool
we both know the way this is going
and i'm too afraid to look forward
i can't help but look back and search for the beginning
but now it's getting too far to see
and all i can see is pain in my periphery

and so it goes
I've got another confession to make
I'm your fool
Everyone's got their chains to break
Holdin' you
Were you born to resist or be abused?
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Are you gone and onto someone new?
I needed somewhere to hang my head
Without your noose
You gave me something that I didn't have
But had no use
I was too weak to give in
Too strong to lose
My heart is under arrest again
But I break loose
My head is giving me life or death
But I can't choose
I swear I'll never give in
I refuse
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Has someone taken your faith?
Its real, the pain you feel
You trust, you must
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Has someone taken your faith?
Its real, the pain you feel
The life, the love
You die to heal
The hope that starts
The broken hearts
You trust, you must
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
I've got another confession my friend
I'm no fool
I'm getting tired of starting again
Somewhere new
Were you born to resist or be abused?
I swear I'll never give in
I refuse
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Has someone taken your faith?
Its real, the pain you feel
You trust, you must
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?

i'll forget about yesterday
if you can give me tomorrow
i can't give you much more than this
if you're not willing to work with me
let's do this in conjunction with one another
you'll hear it from my mouth and i'll tell you over and over
that i'll follow through with every promise i've made
i'll close my eyes again but this time i'm listening closely
i won't open them again until you can tell me
that you'll give me your tomorrows
and then i'll forget about yesterday
do something to take away this pain
and i promise i'll never walk away
the sun's coming up again
will i keep wondering about you
or will you walk with me again today?

i need it
Shed a tear 'cause I'm missing you
I'm still alright to smile
Girl, I think about you every day now
Was a time when I wasn't sure
But you set my mind at ease
There is no doubt you're in my heart now
Said woman take it slow
It'll work itself out fine
All we need is just a little patience
Said sugar make it slow
And we'll come together fine
All we need is just a little patience
Ooh, oh, yeah
Sit here on the stairs
'Cause I'd rather be alone
If I can't have you right now, I'll wait dear
Sometimes, I get so tense
But I can't speed up the time
But you know, love, there's one more thing to consider
Said woman take it slow
Things will be just fine
You and I'll just use a little patience
Said sugar take the time
'Cause the lights are shining bright
You and I've got what it takes to make it
We won't fake it, Oh never break it
'Cause I can't take it
I've been walking these streets at night
Just trying to get it right (Need some patience, yeah)
It's hard to see with so many around
You know I don't like being stuck in a crowd (Could use some patience, yeah)
And the streets don't change but maybe the name
I ain't got time for the game
'Cause I need you (Patience, yeah)
Yeah, yeah well I need you
Oh, I need you (Take some patience)
Whoa, I need you (Just a little patience is all we need)
Ooh, this ti- me....

always out, never in
don't make someone your priority while you remain their option.
i'm moving forward today
the sun came up with me this afternoon
this hangover will wear off soon
but only the one from the alcohol
because i'm still getting over the hangover from you
it's not easy to look at you like this
we're walking around in circles and we're back to the beginning
i can only start so many times, before i have to end
for good
i don't want things to end like this
so just come over here and give me one last kiss
i'll make it worthwhile, i promise
stay with me this one last time
i'll give you yours if you give me back mine
i'll let you go of all of this
and i'll cherish every moment, i promise
i'm listening to that song again and it's telling me things
i know i shouldn't believe in
i'm fooling myself every moment of every day
into thinking that you're not walking away
oh no, there i go making it complicated once again
i told you i would stop
but you should know better
i just need this and it's killing me to be without it
so much within reach, yet so far from my grip,
and i'm letting it slip

I know what you're doing,
I see it all too clear
I only taste the saline when I kiss away your tears
You really had me going, wishing on a star
But the black holes that surround you are heavier by far
I believed in your confusion, you were so completely torn
Well it must have been that yesterday was the day that I was born
There's not much to examine, there's nothing left to hide
You really can't be serious if you have to ask me why
I say good-bye...
'Cause I am barely breathing
And I can't find the air
I don't know who I'm kidding
Imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting
A fool for another day
But I don't suppose it's worth the price, worth the price
The price that I would pay
Everyone keeps asking, what's it all about?
I used to be so certain and I can't figure out
What is this attraction? I only feel the pain
There's nothing left to reason and only you to blame Will it ever change?
'Cause I am barely breathing
And I can't find the air
I don't know who I'm kidding
Imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting
A fool for another day
But I don't suppose it's worth the price, worth the price
The price that I would pay
But I'm thinking it over anyway...
I've come to find
I may never know
Your changing mind
Is it friend or foe?
I rise above
Or sink below
With every time
You come and go
Please don't come and go
'Cause I am barely breathing
And I can't find the air
I don't know who I'm kidding
Imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting
A fool for another day
But I don't suppose it's worth the price, worth the price
The price that I would pay
But I'm thinking it over anyway

dont' say a word
i know what you mean
i've seen this look before
i'll close my eyes again and pretend
let's move forward from today on out
i'll stop asking you if it makes this better
i already knew the answer, i've known it all along
you've told it to me without ever saying a word
but i can't help but need to hear it from you
even a silent agreement
with or without words
a nod of your head will work
don't worry about him
he'll get along alright
maybe today is the best thing to ever happen
i'm not worrying about anyone but you right now
and i'll worry about you until tomorrow night
until i get to see you, again
this is it, time to make good on that promise
and i know i won't let you down
so i'm going to take this chance and keep it somewhere safe
i'm not going to fuck this one up
kiss me one more time like you did yesterday
i promise you that everything is going to be just fine
just walk with me and i'll show you, listen to me and i'll explain it
close your eyes again
and let these feelings in

you're startling me with the way you've been moving
i can't guess your next position
i can't see where this is going to end up
for now, i'll take my chances
for now, i'll watch your every move
i can't keep up with these numbers
i'm listening to this song and thinking about you
it tells me i'd be rich if i could be with you
i'll start to believe it, maybe...or is it against my better judgment
i could live just to see that smile
i think i could even settle for a little more than that
i'll carry this weight if it means i'll be there soon
i'll follow your lead and i wont' complain for a minute
you know i'll be there every step of the way....
and i'll give you this kiss at the end of my day
will you tell me this secret? it's something i'm dying to know
i know you hate it when i ask you that,
but i love the way you roll your eyes
i'm crazy about the sarcastic smile
shhh, i know, it'll all work out soon
i'm betting on this number, this red number 7
i'm laying it all on this table
waiting for the roll of the dice
please, let there be a consolation prize

Little thoughts
Just a castaway, an island lost at sea, oh
Another lonely day, with no one here but me, oh
More loneliness than any man could bear
Rescue me before I fall into despair, oh
I'll send an s.o.s. to the world
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle, yeah
A year has passed since I wrote my note
But I should have known this right from the start
Only hope can keep me together
Love can mend your life but
Love can break your heart
I'll send an s.o.s. to the world
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle, yeah
Walked out this morning, don't believe what I saw
Hundred billion bottles washed up on the shore
Seems I'm not alone at being alone
Hundred billion castaways, looking for a home
I'll send an s.o.s. to the world
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle, yeah
Sending out at an s.o.s.
Sending out at an s.o.s.
Sending out at an s.o.s.
Sending out at an s.o.s.
Sending out at an s.o.s.
Sending out at an s.o.s...

fuck off.
I hurt myself today
to see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
the only thing that's real
the needle tears a hole
the old familiar sting
try to kill it all away
but I remember everything
what have I become?
my sweetest friend
everyone I know
goes away in the end
and you could have it all
my empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
I wear this crown of thorns
upon my liar's chair
full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
beneath the stains of time
the feelings disappear
you are someone else
I am still right here
what have I become?
my sweetest friend
everyone I know
goes away in the end
and you could have it all
my empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
if I could start again
a million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way

open this book, to page one and begin to look
the truth is there, accept it for what it is
don't ask me for the answers, they are all there
i cannot tell you how, or why

yes, more lyrics...
but that's alright, music has something for every mood.........
Looking out the window, the trees are getting closer it seems.
Thinking bout you Darling.
Adding up the cost of these dreams.
Strapped to this projectile, just a blink ago I was back in school.
Smoking by the gym door, practicing my rock-star attitude
And I'm scared shitless of what's coming next.
I'm scared shitless, these angels I see in the trees are waiting for me.
The engines have stopped now. We all know we are going down. Last call for alcohol.
Sure wish I could have another round.
And I'm scared shitless of what's coming next.
Scared shitless, these angels I see in the trees are waiting for me.
Waiting for me.
Friends in the swamp.
Friends on the ground, in the trees.
Angels and fuselage

How can I just let you walk away
Just let you leave without a trace
When I stand here
Taking every breath with you
You're the only one who really knew me at all
How can you just walk away from me
When all I can do is watch you leave?
'cause we shared the laughter and the pain
And even shared the tears
You're the only one who really new me at all
I wish I could just make you turn around
Turn around and see me cry
There's so much I need to say to you
So many reasons why
You're the only one who really knew me at all
So take a look at me now
There's just an empty space
There's nothing left here to remind me
Just the memory of your face
Take a look at me now
There's just an empty space
And to wait for you is all I can do
And that's what I've got to face
Take a look at me now
I'm just standing here
And you coming back to me
Is against the odds
And that's a chance I've got to face

and it's just like mitchell lane...
everything's the same.
I guess it has at least...still the same old shit except for the new job.
I'm making more money and that is nice...i'm also learning what to do with my money which, much to my chagrin, was a big issue with an ex of mine.
Amazon Blonde is going very well. I feel that after all the smoke has cleared, everything definitely worked out for the best. We now have two great guitar players who play extremely well together, we have an awesome drummer (who, in my opinion, is the best drummer this band has had) and a great lead singer...I feel pretty competent on the bass and I feel that once we get this ball rolling again we will turn some heads. The cd should be done soon and I'm very excited about that....the only thing is, we are going in a slightly different direction now and by the time anyone gets this cd, it will be (i guess in a sense it already is) obsolete...but i'm still proud of it and i really think that it sounds good, and looks great (thanks to nadia).

PHILADELPHIA - Eight members of the University of Pennsylvania track and field teams hauled in All-Ivy awards on Tuesday, including four first team honorees and four second team selections after an impressive showing at the 2016 Outdoor Heptagonal Championships.
First team All-Ivy accolades went to seniors Sam Mattis, Kelsey Hay, Thomas Pitt and junior Nick Tuck while second team All-Ivy laurels were earned by seniors Ben Bowers and Brendan Smith, junior Noah Kennedy-White and sophomore Mike Monroe. The trio of Mattis, Hay and Tuck were repeat first team All-Ivy honorees for the Red and Blue.
Mattis earned his fourth-straight Heps title and set a new meet record with his throw of 62.45 meters in the discus. With the win, he became the first four-time champion in the event in league history. The Quakers also had the help of junior Noah Kennedy-White in the event as the duo finished 1-2 for a combined 18 points in the discus. Kennedy-White's toss of 56.18 meters earned him his first conference laurels of his career.
Hay became the first woman to win three consecutive Heps championships in the javelin and the first to win three titles in a collegiate career since Yale's Loriane Murphy in 1982. This is her third first-team All-Ivy honor with her performance as the Quakers put three in the top-6 of the event over the weekend.
Tuck earned his second career first team All-Ivy distinction with a win in the steeplechase. He did so in impressive fashion alongside second-team All-Ivy honoree Brendan Smith as the Red and Blue finished first and second in the event. The duo broke away from the pack with three laps to go and sprinted home in the final 400 meters to dominate the field. Smith came away with a personal record in the race and claimed the No. 5 spot in the Penn record books with the time.
Rounding out Penn's first team selections was senior Thomas Pitt in the long jump. His mark of 7.29 meters placed him a foot ahead of second place to solidify with the victory. With the win, Pitt became the first Quaker to win the event since Kyle Calvo in 2005.
Ben Bowers and Mike Monroe rounded out the Penn all-conference selections in the 110 meter hurdles and high jump. Bowers earned second place in the 110 meter hurdles as he crossed the finish line in 14.24 seconds while Monroe was a runner-up in the high jump with a mark of 2.11 meters.
On Sunday afternoon, the Quaker men repeated as third-place finishers (79 points) for the second-straight year while the women were seventh (47 points) in the team standings.
The top Ivy League performers in each individual event and the top team in each relay event earn selection to the All-Ivy League indoor track and field first team. The second Ivy finishers earn second-team honors.
The postseason continues for several Quakers with the ECAC/IC4A Championships this weekend at Princeton and then into the NCAA Championships.

Nick Tuck: Steeplechase
Sam Mattis: Discus
Thomas Pitt: Long Jump

A workshop on text mining was held on 9 July at Open Repositories 2012. Below are some key points from the +/- 12o subhashtagged tweets. The session was avidly live tweeted by @criticalsteph, and proceedings will be published in. due. course.
- the MEDIE intelligent search engine
- challenges in mining historical text
- using mind maps to build a controlled vocabulary (output: ChemicalTagger)
- using SentiWordNet for analysing radical contents on web forums
- extracting keywords from mailing lists to show trends using MarkMail
Further sessions covered legal and ethical issues, for example (largely verbatim from tweets):
- for mailing lists, is harvesting addresses legal, who owns the content?
- copyright, contracts for resources, TOS, paywall, privacy and data protection law can all be barriers
- shifting sands – law is dynamic, and changing; many see money in text/data mining, which can be a catalyst to rapid change
- UK govt says non-commercial research can be an exception, although this must be done on larger scale with EU agreements
- databases allow private order to be applied – lets publishers opt out of the text mining exception. Publishers want to keep control!
- data/text mining could be maybe treated as an index? Author needs protection – maybe? There *is* an issue of author rights.
- Is student author copyright being ignored in plagerism s/ware e.g. Turnitin? Legal challenge = no in USA. Unclear.
- Privacy and Data Protection UK – sensible steps to follow, quite clear & can be used in text mining without problems BUT need to do a personalisation data minimisation risk assessment on this to show intent.
Key text mining resources:
- JISC Data and text mining page – 13 programmes, 33 projects
- Value and benefits of text mining – JISC horizon scan, March 2012
- NaCTeM – National Centre for Text Mining
- discipline specific research – bound to be lots of law stuff about
- techniques – sentiment analysis/subjectivity analysis, opinion mining, affect analysis, metaphor analysis
- approaches – metadata extraction, categorisation, summarisation
- text mining over the social web – community detection, timelines
- legal aspects

Leopard postponed to support Windows Vista?
- Filed under: Announcements, News, Software
- Date: Mar 24,2007
Digitimes is reporting that the next release of Mac OS X, code-named Leopard, will not ship until October of this year as Apple works to ensure compatibility with Windows Vista.
If Leopard supports only Windows XP, then the chances of the new OS attracting Windows users to buy an Apple computer decreases, stated industry observers, noting that with Vista support, Apple's chances of increasing its share of the PC market would increase.
Sounds a little hard to believe, but Apple wants to make sure that Mac owners will be able to run Vista and Leopard on the same machine.
But how much does Vista compatibility matter to Apple and current/future Apple buyers? With a number of existing Microsoft customers holding off from upgrading to Vista for a variety of reasons, does Vista compatibility really merit delaying a new product release by several months?

so i thought i was being clever trying to add spiceworks certificate so i didnt get the "insecure website" page in chrome.
not thinking things through enough, i imported the certificate on the 'helpdesk' url (certificate points to our externally accessible address).
now when i access anything spiceworks helpdesk related (spiceworks.com is fine), pages take 30sec+ to load.
i've tried to remove the certificate, which i believe is correctly removed, but im still having speed issues.

akp982 is an IT service provider.
Think you need to import a new one rather than deleting the old... Or you will need to manually edit the apache config to change this.

thanks for the sugestion.
looks like it's playing ball today; havent done anything to pc, and spiceworks is loading like it should; either something has timed out and refreshed (some sort of cache?) or the sw server itself has been a bit slow.
seems to be working fine right now though without further fiddling.
