A Kirkcaldy youngster can now travel safely - thanks to a leading children's disability charity.
Amelia Newlands (3) has Phelan McDermid Syndrome, a rare condition which affects learning and memory, and urgently needed a specialist car seat to keep her secure during journeys to hospital and clinic appointments.
But statutory funding is not available to pay for the equipment, which costs £2221, and this prompted Amelia's family to turn to the Newlife Foundation for help.
Amelia's mum Jenni said: "With her current car seat, Amelia slides out of the bottom of the harness. Not only is she in danger of being strangled but she thrashes her legs around, kicking the driver in the head.
"For someone who doesn't walk, she has a lot of movement."
Jenni added: "The new car seat would also support Amelia's postural needs because she would no longer be sliding all over the place."
Newlife has awarded 46 equipment grants for children in Fife, totalling £120,000 and – recognising the urgency of the situation – is responding to Amelia's seating needs.
However, demand on the charity's range of practical support services is growing – as statutory budgets are cut – so Newlife is increasingly calling on locals to help fund equipment for children.
Sheila Brown, Newlife CEO, said: "We guarantee that 100 per cent of all monies donated or fundraised in Fife can be ring-fenced to specifically provide equipment for disabled and terminally ill children within the county."
Anyone wanting to donate to the charity, which is currently helping three families, should contact 0800 988 4640.

I am always on the hunt for new ideas, and this past summer I thought the new orange plant pots I bought for my walkway could transition easily to Halloween decorating. I found the pots at HOMEGOODS for a great deal and simply filled them with black plant stones (I filled the pot with crumpled newspaper first). Then I turned to my favorite plastic spiders from Michael's craft store and some Krylon fusion spray paint in white and sprayed the spiders so they would spookily 'pop' off the rocks. The result is a great knee-high-level decorative statement that looks great on the steps or lining a front walkway.

Like the title of the thread says...anybody have some tips for fighting Neko Arc with Kohaku? I don't want to just turn down the difficulty, but since it's really annoying to have to keep playing through Arcade Mode to get to the eighth battle and fight against Neko Arc and thus it would be a real nuisance to try developing the strategies on my own (because that would require quite a few fights with Neko Arc), I decided to ask for some advice here.
Of course, if there's a way to fight Neko Arc outside of Arcade Mode (say, in VS Mode), then I would be quite obliged for the info.

2011 Definitive Fantasy Football Positional Rankings – Quarterbacks
|1. Aaron Rodgers
2. Michael Vick
3. Drew Brees
4. Tom Brady
5. Peyton Manning
6. Phillip Rivers7. Matt Ryan
8. Tony Romo
9. Matt Schaub
10. Ben Roethlisberger
15. Ryan Fitzpatrick
18. Kevin Kolb
21. Kyle Orton
Thoughts on the 2011 Fantasy Football quarterback class
- There is no second tier of fantasy quarterbacks this year. There are 6 really and then no one and then a third tier. The difference is that big.
- If you want to get one of those top-tier guys, you'll have to use a spot in the first 3 rounds of a 12-team league or the first 4 rounds of a 10-team league.
- If you don't end up with a top-tier quarterback, hope is not lost. Players #7 through 20 are all guys that can score a ton of points, so grabbing a couple of them will leave you with a viable option every week. Taking an established veteran from the third tier and a guy with huge upside from the fourth tier is going to put you in a great spot, and you probably can get them with picks in the 6th and 10th rounds.
- Michael Vick is going to run like crazy, but don't get fooled into reaching for him. Running that much is an increased injury risk, and last year's season isn't nearly as repeat-able as you would like to think. Rodgers can run well also and it turns out that he's also got one of the best arms in the League.
- If you're set at quarterback and need a low-risk huge upside guy to sit on the bench, think about McCoy or Fitzpatrick, I really like the potential in those two.
- You could be tempted to take Cam Newton or Andy Dalton or Jake Locker or some other rookie and keep him on the bench in case he blows up. Don't do that. The shortened offseason of the lockout shifts their learning curve well into the middle of the season, and if they do blow up at that point (which none of these guys will), you can grab them off waivers then.

Three sisters reunite on Sullivan's Island off the coast of South Carolina after years of separation in this heartwarming first novel in a new trilogy from a beloved author.
80-year-old Marietta Muir is a dowager of Charleston society who has retired to her historic summer home on Sullivan's Island. At the onset of summer, Marietta - "Mamaw" - seeks to gather her three granddaughters - Carson, Eudora, and Harper - with the intent to reunite them after years apart.
©2013 Mary Alice Monroe (P)2013 AudioGO
"[Anyone who] enjoys such fine Southern voices as Pat Conroy will add the talented Monroe to their list of favorites." ( Booklist)
There are no listener reviews for this title yet.
"Good story but poor narration"
I loved the storyline and the characters but did not care for Mary Alice Monroe's performance. Her fake southern accent and her inconsistent pronunciation of "Mamaw" really took away from my listening enjoyment.
"Not thrilled"
someone who needs a sleeping aide
There wasn't really an ending, the story lines of characters were left open--almost forcing one to purchase Book 2 for completion.
Anyone - she is a good writer and should stick to writing. Reading was lack luster, comparable to psychology 101 in large college auditorium. Monotone. This past month I have listened to Catherine Tabor and Amy Rubinate either would have made this so much more enjoyable.
None, the women need to be expanded on and not so predictable. While listening not so much "Carson said" Dora said" etc...
Although wondering where the other sisters wonder, not sure I can listen to another book with same narrator.
"The summer girls"
I did not enjoy this story, it had promise yes, but, it somehow did not leave me satisfied, I kept wanting to hear more about the two other sisters , and the boy in the story, however the true message was about alchoholism, it's effects on families , and the plight of Dolphins.
I think I was hoping for Southern charm, romance and life in the South.
please tell the reader Southern pronounce Mamaw as Mam-maw not Ma-Ma. as someone who had a Mam-maw it is aggravating to hear.
"I liked it but I didn't love it"
This is my first listen with this author. While I think she is a good writer she didn't keep my attention and it seemed slow. I like all the characters. The setting is good. The narration is good. It just didn't grab my attention. I think I may have become tainted by so many fast action type books and chick lit usually moves fast. At the time I purchased this one I purchased The Beach House also....I am going to wait awhile to try it.
"Narrator ruins story"
Different narrator
I would, but not narrated by her.
Far too slow, bad accents, no sense of timing. Good narrators perform the book; this author reads it aloud as though for a slow learner.
Could have been an intriguing, atmospheric story, but I couldn't get past the narration and didn't finish.
"Truly terrible"
This book is written with such an elementary style that I found it impossible to care about the story.
The writer conflicted herself several times before Chapter 5.
The performance was very annoying. This is the 1st time I've felt compelled to write a review like this.
"Slow and dull."
I could not get into this story. It was soooo slow and boring. Ughghgh. The narrator's voice was not helpful either.
"Distracting editing and narration challenges"
I WANTED to love this story. However the editing challenges, like repeated phrases and words, and the faux southern accent and verbiage, made that almost impossible. Add to that a few plot weaknesses and it was simply difficult to get through (even though I found some of the characters quite likable.)
"Good book"
The story was good but I noticed a few times the narrator repeated the same line. Not sure if it was something on my phone or how it was recorded. But I enjoyed the story, especially since I live in SC and have been to Sullivan's many times. Looking forward to the second book.

IRVING, Texas - The first day of Dallas Cowboys' rookie mini-camp commenced on Friday, and here is what you need to know:
* Each rookie thinks he can start by Week 1.
* Each rookie is in awe of the chance to learn from Jason Witten, Dez Bryant, DeMarcus Ware, et all.
* Each rookie has a tremendous upside, but the speed of the NFL is much greater than college.
* The coaching staff is incredible.
* Each rookie impressed his respective position coach with knowledge that is far greater than his experience.
* It's a tremendous jump to play in the National Football League.
* This class is loaded with "steals" and "value picks".
* Each rookie just wants to do whatever it takes to help the team win because they are "team" guys.
* First round pick Travis Frederick's beard is better in real life, and is worth of a top 10 pick.
Look at that thing ... it's amazing.
Frederick can play center, and his beard will play right guard.
The Cowboys' first round pick out of the University of Wisconsin may be a complete bust, but that beard is headed for Canton and the Professional Football Hall of Fame.
He said that all o-linemen at the University of Wisconsin try to grow beards, and his obviously took. He said it's been growing for the last 10 months. The beard looks like it has its own cell phone.
"I cut it off a little bit and it started back," he said. "I'm attached to it."
He said babies are often scared of it, but "women obviously love it."
And men are in awe of it.

DORCHESTER SECONDS 108 (1pt) lost to CATTISTOCK 110-1 (20pts) by 9 wickets
DORCHESTER'S wait for a win this season goes on after they were thrashed at home by Cattistock in Dorset League Division Two.
The hosts lost the toss and were put in to bat on a fairly soft wicket, and they got off to the worst possible start when Pete Diffy was bowled with the first ball of the game.
This brought Mike Peak to the crease to join Rhys Cole, playing his first match of the season, and the pair played some lovely shots in a partnership of 41.
Cole was bowled for 25 and the rest of the batsmen all came and went very cheaply.
Peak, pictured, finally went for a well-deserved 27 and Dorchester were all out for just 108.
Trying to defend that total was always going to be hard but opening bowlers Peak and Tom Blair, 15, performed well.
However, in the end only Younis Khan took a wicket, caught by skipper Stuart Beasley behind the stumps.
"It's still the start of the season and we are still trying to get a settled team," said the Dorchester captain.
"Hopefully this week we will have some more experienced players back and which is what we need to help settle the side and the youngsters we have."
Mike Peak was named man of the match, sponsored by Durnovaria Wine Bar.

Expert view on the outlook for Jubilant Life, Jindal Saw, Gujarat Pipavav, Lupin & Titan
Updated: Feb 27, 2012, 03.11 PM IST
We bring you an expert view on the outlook for Jubilant Life, Jindal Saw, Gujarat Pipavav, Lupin and Titan Industries.
Jubilant Life Sciences Ltd
Recommendation: Buy
CMP: Rs 190
Target: Rs 300
Broker's consensus: Buy (12) - Hold (2) - Sell (2)
Jubilant Life Sciences Ltd
Recommendation: Buy
CMP: Rs 190
Target: Rs 300
Broker's consensus: Buy (12) - Hold (2) - Sell (2)
Citigroup maintains a Buy on Jubilant Life Sciences as deals with innovator companies will not only help its growth and profitability, but also point to a growing traction in its contract manufacturing organisation business. However, high company debt remains a concern.
Jindal Saw Ltd
Recommendation: Buy
CMP: Rs 152
Target: Rs 210
Broker's consensus: Buy (11) - Hold (1) - Sell (4)
HSBC initiates coverage on Jindal Saw with an Overweight rating. While the operating environment is difficult, the company is well-positioned in terms of global expansion and commissioning of mines. In the domestic market, rising input costs are a cause for concern.
Gujarat Pipavav Port Ltd
Recommendation: Buy
CMP: Rs 56
Target: Rs 72
Broker's consensus: Buy (9) - Hold (4) - Sell (2)
Standard Chartered upgrades Gujarat Pipavav Ports to Outperfom with a target price of Rs 72. The port volume growth trend continues at Gujarat Pipavav and it has gained market share from larger peer JNPT. Gujarat Pipavav's average port realisations have shown improvement.
Lupin Ltd
Recommendation: Buy
CMP: Rs 470
Target: Rs 576
Broker's consensus: Buy (40) - Hold (6) - Sell (3)
Nomura maintains a Buy rating on Lupin. And that's because foreign pharmaceutical companies have announced that they have settled the patent litigation on diabetes drug Glumetza with Lupin regarding FTF opportunity, with high entry barriers for larger players.
Titan Industries Ltd
Recommendation: Sell
CMP: Rs 225
Target: Rs 221
Broker's consensus: Buy (18) - Hold (7) - Sell (4)
Goldman Sachs downgrades Titan Industries to Neutral, as it believes that the recent outperformance in the stock suitably prices in the company's growth potential. It also sees limited likelihood of earnings upgrades for Titan due to uncertain demand scenario for gold jewellery.

The markets shot higher today as the U.S. Dollar got crushed. As of today, the panic and fear from yesterday is ancient history. As long as no new major catastrophes are unfolding, the markets are taking a breather and bouncing. The SPDR S&P 500 ETF (NYSE:SPY) is trading at $127.87, +1.69 (+1.34%). Yesterday, there were major signals that the market would get a bounce today. These signals are common when a market makes a short term bottom. The first signal was the negation of all the 2011 gains and the major gap fill from December 31st, 2010. As the SPY shot lower, it went to $125.75. This happened to be the closing price on the last trading day of 2010. With the massive flush yesterday, the markets negated all the gains for 2011. In addition, yesterday saw massive volume. Not just big mind you, but massive. This is known as capitulation volume where the weak hands give up, dumping their positions. When the retail investors sell, the bottom is in. The climax of fear plus increased volume showed a bottom was most likely in the markets for the short term. The up move today confirms it. In addition the the signals of a short term bottom, the Dollar is a major key to the markets rise. The Dollar is in major break down mode. The PowerShares DB US Dollar Index Bullish (NYSE:UUP) is trading at $21.83, -0.18 (-0.82%). The major support on the UUP was $21.90. Over the past couple years this level has held. However, today it has been broken. This could be the start of a major new move lower on the U.S. Dollar. A weaker Dollar is usually good for stocks. Gareth Soloway InTheMoneyStocks.com

By: Mariah Ashley
Long dark days. Cold sleepless nights. Sad empty bank accounts. All of your clients have flown south.
Winter is coming.
Well, let it come! This year I am not afraid. Not afraid of White Walkers (gratuitous Game of Thrones reference). I am not afraid of my bank account. Last year at this time I was desperately faking the flu to get out of our trip to Atlanta for Imaging 2013. After struggling all year to stay afloat, all I wanted to do was stay home and cling to the few pennies we had left. My unrealistically optimistic business partner Trish dragged me to the airport and shoved me on the plane to Atlanta, unexpectedly setting us on the bumpy road to success for 2013.
Going to Imaging breathed new life into my defeated self. We left bursting with great ideas to pull ourselves up by the old bootstraps. Since then, we've implemented all we learned in Atlanta and it's made a monumental difference to our business. For starters, this year I will skip merrily onto the plane to Phoenix ready to learn, instead of clawing at the escape hatch desperate to hide. The state of Snap in January 2014? We've booked all the weddings we need, our bank account is pleasantly plump, and my brain is humming along peacefully instead of spiraling into dark places. This is winter people. This is unheard of.
If you are feeling anything like the old panicky broke me, please tell me you are going to Imaging 2014 this week in Phoenix! It's just what the doctor ordered for anyone suffering with a fake flu and dwindling enthusiasm. You may even want to do a little pre-gaming before your trip. To get you in the mood, here are the top 10 things we did this year to turn ourselves around. Imaging was the catalyst for it all.
1. Make
Out With like a Cowboy and Brand Everything. Your logo,
website, blog, collateral all has to be complementary and cohesive! After
Imaging we stopped being schizophrenic with our branding, going so far as to
create a Rules For Branding manual. Anyone who doesn't follow the manual gets
the hot poker treatment (you don't want to know). P.S. Bonus! If you are already well branded you can skip this step and
just make out with a cowboy... or cowgirl while the rest of us are catching up.
2. Join a Cult, of Personality. Selling yourself (not in the biblical sense) is more important than selling your photographs. Show people who you are and they will love you and they will hire you. (Or they won't and you'll get over it because it's them not you). We created a funny video with bloopers, and started a "Behind the Snaps" theme on our blog to give potential clients a glimpse into the charmingly wacky world of the snap girls.
3. Give Til it Hurts (Because it Won't). We stumbled into the PPA Charities party last year and decided we wanted contribute to Operation Smile. We became the top donating studio in the country by donating the money for one surgery every time we book a wedding. This year that means we paid for 43 surgeries. We don't miss a penny of the money we donated and I love imagining 43 smiling little faces in front of me. Bonus! Brides are excited to book with us knowing that they are helping to save a child's smile!
4. Shut Your Pie Hole. It's time to stop talking and really listen to your clients. When you do that, you can start giving the people what they want and not what you think they should have. We used to just tell people what they should buy instead of listening to their needs. We call this "getting off High-Falutin" Highway. As soon as we took the exit to reality town, the bookings began pouring in and our average sales went up.
5. Expose Yourself (But Not in a Trench Coat Kind of Way). I know, it's human nature to want to hide your problems and flaws and pretend everything is alright. But trust me on this, as soon as you start exposing your soft underbelly, your bleak situation will improve. Pull your head out of the sand and start with a PPA SMS consultation. A whole world of non-judgmental support will open up to you.
6. Write Your Wrongs. Writing about the sinking Snap ship and sharing it with the world on the PPA blog (hello...is anybody out there even reading this?) was a scary biweekly occurrence for an entire year. It took me way outside my introverted comfort zone, but it also helped me organize my thoughts and kept me honest with myself. Chronicling our adventures started out as an experiment but became an instrument for positive change. Buy a journal and record your own trials and tribulations. If nothing else, it will help you see how far you've come as you prepare for Imaging 2015!
7. Forget About Losing 20 Pounds. Set yourself up for success. Don't let your business goals go the way of your New Year's Resolutions. Seriously, you are not going to drop 20 pounds by that cruise you are taking in March. Set clear, realistic goals for yourself and your business. For us, that meant paying ourselves every week and eliminating all of our debt. We did both. Still working on that muffin top though. Mmm, did somebody say muffin?
8. Give Your Lazy Butt the Boot. If you do not like to work long hard hours then hang it up now. There is no easy breezy magic recipe for a life of leisure as a wedding photographer. You must hustle, you must work hard, sacrifice your weekends and give it your all each and every day. I used to whine about shooting 30 weddings and then I learned a photographer I really admire shot 50 this year. By herself. I am not worthy. I will never whine again.
9. It's So BAD it's Actually Good. Turn every negative experience you have into a learning experience. We made A LOT of mistakes this year along with the good decisions. Honestly, we learned more from the bad then we did from the good. Do not ignore unhappy clients, jobs you failed to get, or vendors who didn't recommend you. I've started asking every bride who doesn't book us why she went in another direction. Most everyone has shared why and I've learned invaluable insights.
10. You've Got Guts, Trust Them. A low point for me this year was
purchasing another photographer's price list for $195. I am mortified that I
did that. I was at a weak point, unsure of myself, desperate for anything that
could help me price myself correctly. You know what I discovered? The price
list I paid $195 was virtually identical to the one I had sweated over for weeks
creating. You could buy a lot of muffins for $195. Trust your gut; you have the
muffins answers inside you, only you can know what is right for your
I want to thank you faithful blog followers for reading along with me this year. I hope that in sharing my follies and foibles I've helped you to feel less alone and maybe even elicited a chuckle or two during your busy work days. If you see me at Imaging, please say hello! I would love to hear from you. Good luck and Godspeed.
Sure, winter is coming, but we've kicked it's frosty butt and so can you. Now where's my hot cocoa?

STILLWATER, Okla. — We're about 15 minutes away from kickoff here in what promises to be the biggest Big 12 game so far this season.
No. 4 Baylor and No. 10 Oklahoma State will match up in the de-facto Big 12 Championship. Although both the Bears and Cowboys have big games remaining, tonight's game should point the winner with a clear path to the BCS.
The loser likely is headed to the Cotton Bowl, but could end up in the Valero Alamo Bowl under the right set of circumstances.
After driving into Stillwater in an ice storm Friday afternoon, the weather has moderated nicely tonight. Game-time temperature is 35 degrees with a wind chill of 26 degrees. Temperatures likely will drop into the high 20s as the game progresses tonight.
Baylor has been wracked by injuries in recent weeks. The Bears definitely will be without top deep threat Tevin Reese at wide receiver and starting left tackle Spencer Drango will miss tonight's game after undergoing back surgery earlier this week.
Running back Glasco Martin said earlier this week that he expected to play and Lache Seastrunk started running drills. If both can't go, redshirt freshman Shock Linwood would get the start. All he has done the last two weeks is notch back-to-back season rushing highs for a Baylor back this season.
Josh Stewart and Justin Gilbert are both in the lineup for OSU, although Gilbert won't return kickoffs.
It should be a good one.

A new workshop in Edinburgh in Mouse Taxidermy offers the unique and slightly odd opportunity to stuff dead mice and pose them up as humans.
Instead of leaving with a new fruit bowl or the ability to order dinner in Paris, students head home with their own stuffed and embalmed rodent, all ready to be dressed in a range of outfits and styles, polka dot dresses, Victorian garb, punk or even suited and booted.
The four-hour class, costing £65, is run by trained taxidermist Shannon Marie Harmon, whose own works can sell for £100 upwards.
Only frozen feeder mice bought from pet shops are used for the arts and crafts session, with each left to thaw beforehand. Shannon then instructs her students in making the first incision near the sternum before cutting down to the groin.
A preservative known as Borax is then applied before the mouse is sewn up, ready to be dressed.
Despite such "icky" details, a number of upcoming taxidermy workshops are already said to be generating quite a buzz from people keen to try their hand at something different.
Ms Harmon, 30, who teaches at the London Taxidermy Academy, said: "I fully understand that there is a natural curiosity and a kind of morbid fascination with this, but interest is definitely growing. I currently run two 15-person classes a week in London.
"It's a novel thing to do, you learn a skill whilst also leaving with a unique piece of art to display as you wish."
Anthropomorphic taxidermy – the practice of mounting and displaying stuffed animals as if they were humans – was a popular art form during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. The best known practitioner was Walter Potter, whose famous works included The Kitten Wedding and The Kitten Tea Party.
Ms Harmon regularly receives bizarre commissions from fans and collectors of the niche art form, as well as offers of fresh roadkill.
She said: "I've created headpieces and hair clips with tiny sleeping mice on top and have also been asked to stuff a rat and put him riding a mini tricycle.
"One of the weirdest was from a guy who asked for a mouse holding a cage with little humans inside. People also often offer me roadkill such as squirrels, birds or rabbits to stuff. I've become quite friendly with one or two vets."
The workshops are being held at the White Rabbit boutique, Broughton Street. Demand is already high with a number of briefs already snapped up.

Naruto 568 Reviews [Late Christmas Gift]
- 14.12.2011 22:19
Naruto 568 is finally out now, as a late Christmas Gift!!! Here is just another question: When is Naruto 569 comes out???
This was an excellent chapter!
I'm so glad to see that the 4 tails (Son Goku, lol) is going to help Naruto. Kakashi and Gai are holding there own on the battlefield.
I like the direction it is going. The tailed beast act the way they do because they are sick of being treated as mere weapons by the shinobi.
The first time I read the 568 I was annoyed, I was hoping Kyuubi would have helped Naruto and they would go on a rampage, but the second time I re-read it I actually enjoy this chapter and like it a lot. I can't wait to see how Naruto will undo the chains and how this whole thing will play out, Kurama and Son Goku, ^_^.
What happens next??? Could Naruto possibly become a Jinchuriki with more than 1 taled beast sealed inside him?

I've squeezed one last image out of my visit to the Natural History Museum in Vienna. This is the lower flight of the central stairway, leading up from the entrance hall below the cupola. It was taken from one of the two symmetrically arranged upper flights. They lead from the first landing back up to the restaurant, also below the cupola.
The Song of the Day is still "Little Palaces" from Elvis Costello's 1986 album "King Of America". Hear it on YouTube.

For clarity I'd rewrite your solution as a next-error-find-buffer rule: 1. If the current next-error capable buffer is not the last source buffer. 2. If one window on the selected frame displays such buffer, return it. 3. If next-error-last-buffer is set to a live buffer, use that. ... This will solve the problem. Perhaps there are situations where it may not work, for example, when the user switches the source buffers. But it's impossible to guess whether he switched the source buffer with the intention to start going through the diffs or he wants to continue visiting grep results. In the latter case, he can select the *grep* window and type C-m or C-c C-c to go to the next grep match instead of starting to visit the diffs. So I think your solution will produce the expected behavior. -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/

April is Sarcoidosis Awareness Month
If you've been following our twitter feed (@calliflower) over the last couple of weeks, you might have seen some open calls from a group called "A Song for Life Sarcoidosis Foundation". Calliflower is a sponsor for A Song for Life during National Sarcoidosis Awareness Month, and A Song for Life is using Calliflower during this month to hold "telesupport" groups for Sarcoidosis sufferers.
According to what I've read, not much is known about the cause of the disease. It can by asymptomatic, or chronic. It commonly improves or clears up spontaneously. And yet 50% have some kind of relapse, and 10% develop a serious disability.

Botham helps Cameron connect
When the British Prime Minister is visiting India the best way to strike a chord is to talk cricket, the quintessentially English game that now has a distinctly Asian flavour. Addressing employees of a software firm in Bangalore, David Cameron connected by mentioning Ian Botham, whom he called his childhood idol. "Many of you in this room would have grown up revering Kapil Dev. I did the same with Ian Botham," Cameron said. Then, possibly just to be safe, he mentioned the T word. "And Sachin Tendulkar, the Little Master, is so talented that wherever you're from, you can't help but admire him as he hits another century."
And though the seat of cricket's power has shifted, for all practical purposes, from Marylebone to Mumbai, George Osborne, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, showed his knowledge of the game's nuances by quickly correcting an analogy. According to the Wall Street Journal, one business leader thanked Osborne for making his trip to India within 10 weeks of taking office, likening it to hitting a six in the first over of a Test. Osborne's response was swift: "A batsman hitting a six in the first over of a Test isn't likely to survive at the wicket for too long. I have every intention of staying the long haul." He obviously isn't a Sehwag fan.

Can you imagine a developed country anywhere in the world where closing a high school is subject to cabinet approval? It's hard to imagine, but there is one that lies "in the heart of Europe." Of course, I'm talking about Hungary, where unfortunately "the heart" is often missing from decisions reached by the country's political leaders.
Those of you who have been following Hungarian politics already know that I'm talking about the Raoul Wallenberg School, which teaches "human studies," such as health care, social work, and special education. The school trains healthcare workers (nurses, dental assistants, pharmacy assistants, ambulance nurses, etc.), social care providers (social assistants, child caregivers), and special education assistants. The school was completely renovated ten years ago and cost 3 billion forints. The money, as usual, came from the European Union and, this time, also from Sweden. Since the year 2004 the school has borne the name of Raoul Wallenberg, the Swedish diplomat who in 1944 saved several thousand Jewish citizens from certain death in Auschwitz and other extermination camps in Germany. The school has developed close relationships with schools in other European countries. They have yearly student exchange programs, scholarships, teachers' visits, and conferences. All in all, "Raoul," as everybody calls the school, is considered to be the best of its kind in Hungary.
So, why did the Orbán government decide to close it and scatter its 1,200 students and 70 teachers among six different vocational schools that don't teach the subjects Wallenberg specializes in? The schools designated to receive "Raoul" students teach such trades as bricklaying, carpentry, and plumbing. All this was decided in two minutes at a cabinet meeting on March 18. In early April the principal of the school was told that, as of the end of the school year sometime in June, the Raoul Wallenberg School will be no more. And, she was warned, she cannot tell a soul about the school closing. No reason for the sudden decision was given.
It didn't take long before everybody knew that the building that housed the Wallenberg School will be taken over by the new Nemzeti Közszolgálati Egyetem/National Civil Service University. The expanding new university needs the space. The next victim most likely will be the Museum of Natural Sciences. The administration of the Wallenberg School knew that sooner or later they would have to evacuate the building, but they felt safe until at least April 30, 2016, because the EU grants Hungary received required that they remain in the same building for at least fifteen years. Well, the Hungarian government decided otherwise.
The way the government handled this case is typical. First, decisions are reached in secrecy, so there is no opportunity for those affected by the decisions to express their views. Second, the authorities don't bother with rules and regulations. In the case of a contemplated school closing, there must be discussions with school boards, parents, teacher's unions, etc. Of course, none of these people was consulted. Third, it really doesn't matter what objections are voiced. The government goes full steam ahead anyway. Fourth, if there is trouble, as there was in this case, they send in a man who has no authority to make any decision. Fifth, they would like, if at all possible, to keep the media away. In this case, they also forbade the principal to talk to reporters. And finally, the last word is always that of the highest authority, who is Viktor Orbán himself. Even the minister of education cannot decide on a simple school closing without "the approval of the government." What a country.
But sometimes the government meets stiff resistance and is forced to make concessions. It took about a week, but it now looks as if the Raoul Wallenberg School will continue as a unit, we just don't know where. Since the city of Budapest will have only a couple of months to ready a building to receive a school currently equipped with special classrooms and equipment to teach healthcare subjects, it is hard to imagine that the school can open its doors in September. But, still, school officials are relieved and grateful. How did the administration of the school manage to win against the almighty state? Everybody involved refused to obey the order to keep quiet, and they all acted together: school officials, students, teachers, parents, and trade unions.
Although the principal was forbidden to speak, the deputy principal bravely went to ATV and told her story. She was impressive and fearless. The journalists, who initially were not allowed to attend a meeting of students, parents, and teachers with an official of the Klebelsberg Kunó Intézményfenntartó Központ (KLIK), the mammoth office in charge of all Hungarian elementary and high schools, ignored the instructions and gave vivid descriptions of the tumultuous gathering of at least a thousand people. Brave and surprisingly articulate fifteen- and sixteen-year-olds barraged the hapless KLIK representative with hundreds of questions and criticisms until he himself admitted that he doesn't agree with the decision. Leaders of both teacher's unions were present and threatened KLIK with a law suit. After the meeting, it became clear that this crowd could not be easily appeased. The closing of the Wallenberg School would be another scandal.
And we mustn't forget about the outside help the school's defenders received. The ELTE students who had already twice demonstrated against the government's trampling on the autonomy of the universities decided to add to their own grievances the unfair treatment of the Raoul Wallenberg School. Their last demonstration ended in front of the Wallenberg School.
Both the Mazsihisz, the umbrella organization of Hungarian Jewish communities, and the Raoul Wallenberg Society and Foundation also raised their voices in defense of the school. After all, this is the only school in the country that bears the name of Wallenberg. The Raoul Wallenberg Society was especially upset because in the last six years the Society, together with the Holocaust Memorial Center and the Wallenberg School, had organized a program called "Was it a long time ago? Where was it?" If you want to know more about the program, take a look at the Society's online site. It sounds fascinating. Clearly, in the Wallenberg School students learned more than the normally prescribed subjects. The school took seriously the message of Wallenberg's activities in Hungary.
It is not over yet, but Zoltán Balog showed up at the school yesterday and announced the change of plans. It is hard to tell why he decided to give in. Perhaps because his hands are full of other troubles concerning healthcare and the so-called reforms of higher education? Or was it the united front formed by teachers, students, parents, and trade union leaders? Was he worried about abolishing a school that bears Raoul Wallenberg's name? Perhaps a combination of all of these things.
People are increasingly pushing back against the government and perhaps standing a little taller.

Jossey signs on at Seton Hill - Article, 2012 Ohlone College Renegades Men's Baseball
By Bob Brownne.
Thursday, April 19, 2012—Reprinted from Tracy Press.
Tracy High graduate Brandon Jossey, class of 2010, signed his letter of intent this week to play baseball on an athletic scholarship at Seton Hill University in Greensburg, Penn.
As a Bulldog, Jossey hit .368 in his senior year, when he made the all-San Joaquin Athletic Association first team for the second time and was also the team's most valuable player.
He went on to play at Ohlone College in Fremont, where he was a member of the 2011 Renegades team that finished as the Pacific Coast Conference champions and California Community Colleges Athletic Association state runner-up. He started the 2012 season as a starting outfielder and number-four batter, but is inactive now because of a broken hand.
"I'm hoping to get back in time (for the end of the season)," he said. "We're planning to make another playoff run."
He will join the Seton Hill Griffins as a junior outfielder, and said he chose the college because it gives him a chance to play in the NCAA's Division II. The Griffins went 33-15 in 2011, won their second consecutive West Virginia Intercollegiate Athletic Conference title, and went to the NCAA Atlantic Region Tournament.
Jossey said that the program at Seton Hill is similar to Ohlone's, so he felt comfortable right away. He added that the Tracy High program, and coaches Tony Crivello and Vic and Steve Alkire, gave him a good foundation that enabled him to get the most out of his experience at Ohlone.
"I learned how to take baseball more seriously and take it to a winning level. At Ohlone I started to love the game even more."

text: Reader "Lyris" sent this in: "You may or may not know about this, but there's a DVD in China of Tom & Jerry featuring all the Hanna-Barbera shorts (except for the cinemascope ones) in chronological order."It's actually not a bootleg set, it's distributed by a company named Bo Ying and is packaged fairly nicely. All of the shorts seem to be uncut, except for the fact that the MGM cards at the start of each short has been replaced with a card for the company that distributes the DVD. The image quality's fairly decent (definitely watchable and far better than VHS) and although the package states the set is encoded for Region 6, the versions I received are actually Region 0 and since China uses the NTSC video standard, this means you'll be able to play them in America without any special hardware."We just missed one on ebay – but methinks this is a bootleg. I'll look into it.

Abortion connection cited in 300,000 extra breast-cancer deaths
January 19, 2011
The Coalition on Abortion/Breast Cancer has estimated that abortion has led to 300,000 breast-cancer deaths in the US in the years since the Roe v. Wade decision. Dr. Joel Brind explained that his studies show a "30% great chance of developing breast cancer" among women who have procured an abortion. Applying that rate to the number of abortions in the US since 1973, and factoring in the mortality rate from the disease, he reaches the 300,000-death figure.
Karen Malec, the president of the Coalition on Abortion/Breast Cancer, said that 50 published studies since 1957 have confirmed a connection between abortion and breast cancer. The highly publicized studies dismissing that link are badly flawed, she said. "Like the tobacco/cancer cover-up, these are used to snow women into believing abortion is safe," she said.

When we add lookup column to any SharePoint list, it appears with the link to parent item in SharePoint list views. Quite often, end-user clicks on the lookup link and edits parent lookup item by mistake - People get confused which link to click. So we wanted to remove hyperlink from lookup columns in SharePoint 2013 list views.
Here is how you can remove hyperlink from lookup fields out-of-the-box without any coding and customization efforts.
- Go to your list settings, Pick the lookup column. In my case its "Parent Project". In "Edit Column" page, Select "Title" field under "Add a column to show each of these additional fields" Section as highlighted below.
- Now, Edit your list view, Unselect "Parent Project" field and select "Parent Project: Title" field. (You can rename this Title - BTW!)
Click "OK" to save the view. That's all! This removes the link from hyperlink columns.
Using JQuery to remove hyperlink from lookup column:
Lookup columns are pointing to.link something like "http://Site/***&RootFolder=*". So, lets find all Anchor elements of the page with href attributes "&RootFolder=*". and remove remove link of the lookup.
To remove lookup hyperlink from SharePoint list view using jQuery, Follow these steps:
- Go to your List view page, E.g. http://portal.crescent.com/Lists/ProjectMilestones/AllItems.aspx
- Click on Site Settings gear, Click on "Edit Page" Menu item
- Click on Add a Web Part link shown on the page, Under "Media and Content" choose "Script Editor" and Click on "Add" Button
- Click on "Edit Snippet" link on the Script Editor Web part and place the below code in it.
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.2.6.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function() { $('a[href*="RootFolder=*"]').each(function(index) { var link = $(this); $(this).after("<span>" + link.text() + "</span>"); $(this).remove(); }); }); </script>
- Save and Close the page!
$('a[href*="userdisp.aspx?ID="]').each(function(index) {
