Emergency contraception
Expanding availability
Dr Jenny Tonge MP asked the Secretary of State for Health
what plans he has to make emergency contraception available
from (a) community pharmacists and (b) school nurses.
Yvette Cooper MP (Minister
for Public health) replied that an application has been
received to reclassify levonorgestrel 0.75mg (marketed as
Levonelle-2) for emergency contraception from prescription
only to pharmacy availability for women aged 16 and over.
Public consultation was completed on 30 June. The application
has now been considered by the Medicines Commission. If
we decide to proceed, an Order will be laid shortly. In
addition there are pilot schemes running whereby emergency
contraception is issued by pharmacists under National Health
Service arrangement using patient group direction. Sex and
Relationship Education Guidance issued by the Department
for Education and Employment in July this year states that
health professionals can provide pupils with specific and
up-to-date information about sexual health and contraception.
Health professionals can also play an important part in
ensuring young people know about their local advice services.
The specific role of school nurses in providing services
to young people is at the discretion of school governing
bodies, in consultation with parents and the school community.

When pregnancy begins
John Gummer MP asked the Secretary of State for Health what
recent advice he has taken and from whom on the point at
which pregnancy can be said to begin.
Yvette Cooper MP replied
that the accepted legal and medical view is that a pregnancy
begins at implantation. This has been the policy of successive
Governments and is based on advice given to the Department
by the Attorney-General in 1983, about the legal position
under the Abortion Act
Written answer 23 October 2000
The impact of emergency contraception
John Gummer MP asked the Secretary of State for Health
what evidence his Department has collated on the impact
of the morning after pill on the abortion rate; and if he
will make a statement.
Yvette Cooper MP replied that a study of self-administration
of emergency contraception following advance prescribing
has been performed by Glasier et al in Edinburgh. This concluded:
'making emergency contraception more easily available .
. . may reduce the rate of unwanted pregnancies.' However,
the number of women studied was small and at the present
time there are insufficient data to know how availability
of emergency contraception might affect outcome measures
such as therapeutic abortion rates. It should be noted that
fluctuations in the abortion rate may be subject to a number
of different factors and it is therefore difficult to attribute
changes to one intervention or event.

Contraception. New England Journal of Medicine 1998; 339:
No 1 1-4.
Written answer 23 October 2000
John Gummer MP asked the Secretary of State for Health
what plans he has to frame the proposed re-classification
of levonorgestrel 0.7 mg as an over the counter product
so that it does not contravene Section 58a of the Medicines
Act 1968 in relation to its side-effects; and if he will
make a statement. Gisela Stuart MP (Minister for Public
Health) replied that proposals to widen availability of
emergency contraception follow an application to reclassify
levonorgestrel 0.75 mg for emergency contraception from
prescription only to pharmacy availability for women aged
16 years and over. The application was referred for independent
expert advice to the Committee on Safety of Medicines (CSM).
In formulating their advice, the CSM carefully considered
each of the relevant criteria for prescription control laid
down in Section 58A of the Medicines Act 1968. The Committee
concluded that all the steps required to safely supply emergency
contraception could be successfully completed in a pharmacy
and advised that levonorgestrel 0.75 mg for emergency contraception
may safely be supplied as a pharmacy medicine for women
aged 16 and above. The Committee noted that information
on correct use would be provided with the product including
any possible side effects and advice on what action to take.
The results of a public consultation on the proposal, and
the advice of the Medicines Commission, were presented to
Ministers for a decision.
Written answer 7 November 2000
Emergency contraception as prescription only medicine
On 12 December 2000, the Government laid an Order before
the House, that the Medicines - Prescription Only Medicine
(Human Use) Act be amended to allow the sale of emergency
contraception in pharmacies, without prescription. After
40 days this will become law, unless challenged. On 18 December
2000, the Leader of the Opposition, William Hague, challenged
the Order (known as praying against) using an Early Day
Motion (No 120). The Motion, which calls for the annulment
of the Order, may be debated in January. If a majority of
MPs vote in favour of annulment, the Order will be rescinded.
The Early Day Motion has the support of 13 Conservative
Statutory Instruments 20 December 2000. EDM 120 18 December
Early Day Motions on emergency contraception
On 12 December, Alice Mahon MP put down an Early Day Motion
entitled Morning After Pill. It was supported by 31 Members
and reads: 'That this House congratulates the Government
on making the morning-after pill available for sale without
prescription in chemists to all women over the age of 16
years; and recognises that this will prevent many abortions
and unplanned teenage pregnancies.'
EDM 87 12 December 2000
On 13 December, Harry Cohen MP, supported by six MPs put
down an Early Day Motion about the cost of emergency contraception:
'That this House believes that the cost of the emergency
oral contraceptive known as the morning after pill is too
high at the likely price of £20 and that this may
deter those who would most benefit from it.'
EDM 113 13 December 2000
Sexual health
Cost to the NHS of sexually transmitted infections
Gerald Howarth MP asked the Secretary of State for Health
(1) what the total cost to the NHS was of treating sexually
transmitted diseases including in-patient and outpatient
treatment and prevention in (a) 1970, (b) 1980, (c) 1990
and (d) 1999; (2) what the total cost was of providing abortions
on the NHS in (a) 1970, (b) 1980, (c) 1990 and (d) 1999;
(3) what the cost was to the NHS of treating cancer of the
cervix and other cervical abnormalities in (a) 1970, (b)
1980, (c) 1990 and (d) 1999; (4) what the cost to the NHS
was of infertility treatment in (a) 1970, (b) 1980, (c)
1990 and (d) 1999; and of this, how much was as a consequence
of previous sexually-transmitted disease, with particular
reference to chlamydia.
Yvette Cooper MP replied that the information requested
is not available centrally.
Written answer 23 October 2000
Sexual health and HIV strategy
Sandra Gidley MP asked the Secretary of State for Health
if he will make a statement on progress on his sexual health
and HIV strategy.
Yvette Cooper MP replied that following the merger of the
Sexual Health and HIV Strategies earlier this year, considerable
progress has been made with producing an integrated strategy.
The strategy will set a programme of action on sexual health
and HIV for England.
Written answer 21 Nov 2000
Human papilloma virus
Dafydd Wigley MP asked the Secretary of State for Health
(1) what plans he has to introduce human papilloma virus
testing as part of the National Cervical Screening Programme;
(2) for what reason the plan to pilot human papilloma virus
testing for women has been delayed until March 2001; (3)
what representations he has received concerning the need
for human papilloma virus testing as part of improvements
to the National Cervical Screening Programme.
Yvette Cooper MP replied that the National Health Service
cancer plan sets out our commitment to introducing new developments
to the cervical screening programme. Plans to pilot the
new techniques in liquid based cytology (LBC) and human
papilloma virus (HPV) testing are highlighted in the plan
as the means for informing service improvement. After receiving
advice from the National Institute for Clinical Excellence
in June 2000, we decided to pilot LBC and HPV jointly. A
joint protocol was developed which will provide more useful
information and be more convenient for women as a number
of tests can be carried out from the same sample. Sites
in England have now been chosen and the joint pilot will
start in March 2001.
Written answer 21 December 2000
Teenage pregnancy
Teenage pregnancies
Jim Cunningham MP asked the Secretary of State for Health
what steps he is taking to reduce the number of unplanned
teenage pregnancies (a) nationally and (b) in the West Midlands.
Yvette Cooper MP replied that the Social Exclusion Unit's
report on teenage pregnancy, published on 14 June 1999,
sets out a 30-point action plan working across Government.
It sets out a £60 million package to tackle the issue,
and highlights two main goals: reducing the number of teenage
conceptions, with the specific aim of halving the rate of
conceptions among under 18s by 2010; and getting more teenage
parents into education, training or employment to reduce
their risk of long term social exclusion. Following the
launch of the report, every area in England now has a local
teenage pregnancy co-ordinator in place, making a total
of 141. Their role is to develop strategies to tackle teenage
pregnancy in their area, in consultation with local communities.
They will report annually on progress to the Department
of Health. £7.5 million has been made available for
innovative local projects in the current financial year.
The NHS Plan has set an interim target of achieving a 15
per cent reduction in under-18 conception rates by 2004.
New guidance on sex and relationship education was issued
to schools in July. A national media campaign began at the
end of October, when the first adverts appeared in teenage
magazines. The campaign was developed drawing on comprehensive
research on what works best with young people. It is aimed
as much at boys as at girls. During 2000-01, Government
provided funding of over £1 million to the West Midlands
to develop local services to prevent teenage pregnancy and
support teenage parents. Specific initiatives include a
Sexual Health and Drugs Outreach Work (SHADOW) project in
Coventry that addresses sexual health, pregnancy and healthy
lifestyles for young people. This will link to a one-stop
shop, due to open shortly in Coventry city centre, to deliver
a number of services such as Connexions, youth information
and a general advice and counselling service for young people.
A mobile sexual health and advice clinic has been set up
in North Staffordshire, enabling young people to access
services in youth and leisure facilities.
Written answer 6 November 2000
Sexual relationships
John Bercow MP asked the Secretary of State for Education
and Employment what guidance is issued to schools about
the approach towards sexual relationships between pupils
aged (a) under 16 years and (b) 16 years or above.
Jacqui Smith MP (Parliamentary Under Secretary of State,
Education and Employment) replied that sexual relationships
involving children under 16 are a criminal offence. Recently
published Sex and Relationship Education guidance sets out
the procedure teachers should follow if they become aware
that a child under the age of 16 is having, or contemplating
having, sex. The guidance also explains the benefits of
and the reasons for young people delaying sexual activity,
and this is backed up by the campaign to reduce teenage
Written answer1 November 2000
School exclusions
Chris Ruane MP asked the Secretary of State for Education
and Employment (1) how many female pupils were excluded
from school because of pregnancy in England between 1980
to 2000; and if he will make a statement; and (2) if he
will list the 10 education authorities with (a) the highest
and (b) the lowest percentage rates of school exclusions
because of pregnancy;
and if he will make a statement.
Jacqui Smith MP replied that the detailed information requested
is not held centrally by the Department. The latest information
on permanent exclusions will be published in a Statistical
Bulletin, a copy of which will be placed in the Library.
The DfEE issued guidance in 1999 to all local education
authorities and schools, which made it clear that pregnancy
on its own was
not a reason for exclusion from school. In addition to the
Government drive to cut truancy and school exclusions, it
is also working to cut teenage pregnancy rates and to reduce
the social exclusion often experienced by teenage parents
and their children. Government is issuing some guidance
to help schools to support teenage parents in school and
also funding reintegration work in selected LEAs to help
girls back in to education after they have had their baby.
Written answer 28 November 2000
International development
Contraception Advice
Laurence Robertson MP asked the Secretary of State for International
Development what advice she gives to people in the third
world about contraception; and if she will make a statement.
Clare Short MP (Secretary of State for International Development)
replied that the Government is committed to the principles
of freedom and choice in reproductive health services as
agreed at the 1994 International Conference on Population
and Development, and to the International Development to
attain universal access to reproductive health services
before 2015.
Written answer 8 November 2000
Chris McCafferty MP asked the Secretary of State for International
Development if she will make a statement on her Department's
contributions to the provision of contraceptives in the
developing world. George Foulkes MP (Parliamentary Under
Secretary of State for International
Development) replied that Government is committed to the
International Development target to attain universal access
to reproductive health services before 2015 and has substantial
involvement in efforts to ensure women and men in developing
countries can access contraceptives and other reproductive
health commodities. The recent pledge to contribute an additional
£25 million to the United Nations Population Fund,
on top of the annual core contribution of £15 million,
will help meet immediate and short-term needs, and assure
continued access to essential reproductive health commodities,
including condoms for family planning and HIV/AIDS prevention,
in a number of countries which are facing shortages. Chris
McCafferty MP asked the Secretary of State for International
Development what representations she has made to other donor
Governments about the supply of contraceptives in the developing
world. George Foulkes MP replied that the recent pledges
by this Department and the Government of the Netherlands,
to contribute an additional £51 million to the United
Nations Population Fund to help fund immediate and short-term
needs in developing countries for reproductive health commodities,
is a further demonstration of the commitment of both Governments
to the health of poor people. Government will continue to
encourage other donors and developing countries to make
every effort to meet the rising demand for contraception
in the developing world.
Written answer 20 November 2000
Gerald Howarth MP asked the Secretary of State for Health,
how many (a) sterilisations and (b) reversals of sterilisation
were carried out by the NHS in (i) 1970, (ii) 1980, (iii)
1990 and (iv) 1999. How many were requested as a result
of people getting married or acquiring new partners; and
what the total cost to the NHS was in each of those years.
Yvette Cooper MP gave the following information
Data were collected via
the Hospital In-Patient Inquiry, which was based on a 1
in 10 sample of discharges and deaths from non-Psychiatric
and non-Maternity NHS Hospitals in England.
Written answer 20 November 2000
Northern Ireland assembly
Health and Personal Social Services Bill: Second Stage Jim
Shannon MLA spoke on the Bill as follows:
I would also like to address Part IV of the Bill, which
has direct implications for the pharmaceutical chemist.
I have made it my business to speak to some chemists, and
they expressed specific concern that they could be forced
to sell, on prescription, the "morning after pill",
the PC4. Under this legislation, will chemists be forced
to make a moral decision? Some will neither stock, prescribe
nor sell this pill. Will the Minister confirm that, under
the legislation, pharmaceutical chemists will not be constrained
to prescribe? Not enough research has been done on this,
and chemists have a real concern that the pill will be taken
off prescription and they will be asked to sell it over
the counter. Not enough research has been done to determine
if the effects of the pill could be detrimental. Following
hard on the abortion debate and the overwhelming vote against
it, I urge the Department of Health to be cautious towards
pharmaceutical chemists who will, generally, refuse to accept
any directive or ruling from the Health Department. Will
the Minister confirm her position on the PC4 pill?
Bairbre de Brun MLA (Minister for Public Health, Social
Services and Public Safety) declined to respond.

Brilliant Period Cut Glass pedestal crescent vase, signed Libbey in the Herringbone pattern, with a large scalloped petticoat hobstar foot, 12 ½ inches tall, is the largest size in one of the rarest shapes.
Several collections of Brilliant Period Cut Glass featuring many rare, beautiful, and stunning pieces will come up for bid on Saturday, May 12th, when

The pattern of the vases matches exactly a vase featured in the Philadelphia Museum of Art, presented to the museum by Dorflinger & Sons in 1903. The exceptionally rare vases each stand 11 ¾ inches tall.
Another star lot in the vase category promises to be the rare and colorful 10-inch-tall BPCG turquoise cut to clear vase with crosscut diamond, strawberry diamond and fan motif and scalloped hobstar foot.
Other vases of interest will include a scarce example in the Rose Diamond pattern by Meriden, 11 ¾ inches tall with a hobstar base and step-cut neck, of exceptional quality; and a BPCG pedestal crescent vase, signed Libbey in the Herringbone pattern, with a large scalloped petticoat hobstar foot.

Lots will include an 11-inch tray, signed Hawkes in the Panel pattern; an 11 ¾ inch tray in the Waldorf pattern by Clark (aka the Quatrefoil & Rosette pattern); and a 10-inch tray, signed Hawkes, in the Lattice and Rosette pattern.
Additional BPCG round pattern trays will feature a 12-inch tray in the True Trellis pattern by Egginton, patented on Feb. 4, 1908; and a 15 ½ inch tray signed Libbey in the Diana pattern, of superior quality and outstanding size; a 14-inch tray in the Wedgemere pattern by Libbey.

Other highlight lots will include a BPCG ice cream set in the Star pattern by Meriden, with a 14 ¾ inch round tray and eight 7-inch plates; a scarce BPCG banana bowl, signed Libbey in the Marcella pattern, one of the great rarities; and an equally hard-to-find bowl in the Imperial pattern by Hawkes, measuring 4 inches by 9 ¼ inches.

There are many types of poker can be played. Although Texas Hold'em is one of the most recent types of poker
he enjoys the highest popularity of all poker games. Perhaps the reason is that the rules are fairly simple and you can learn the basics of some games. Texas Hold'Em is a flop type game that combines elements of both stud poker and draw
but even if it is easier to learn
it is also the most difficult. The player's objective is
as in most games
to win the full amount of paris that players placed in the hand
also known as the pot. The winner is the player who lasted until the last round and still win the pot last
all money wagered in the game. Card combinations in poker vary. The lowest combination is a high card
which means the highest card you have is more than your opponent. A pair is when you have two cards of same rank
for example if you have two aces then you have a pair of aces. Two pair is when you form a pair of two combinations
but different ranks
like a pair of eights and a pair of jacks. Three of a kind is when you form a combination of three cards of same rank as the three queens. Straight is when you have five cards of different colors but in a consecutive order
but keep in mind that ACE can be used as 1 in a sequence A
or the highest card when you have 10
K and A
the latter being the highest available right. The hunt is when you have all five cards of the same color as five diamonds or five hearts. Full
is when you have a set and the last two cards are paired. Four of a kind is when you have four cards of equal rank. straight flush is when you have a straight and all cards are the same color. The best possible hand in Texas Hold'em is a royal flush
it means you have the more readily available
all the same color. In Texas Hold'em hand starts with two cards dealt to each player
which are known as pocket cards and are only seen by the player who receives them. Other players may be able to use their intuition to get an idea of the pocket cards of other players by observing their ways of paris and behavior throughout the match. Each player has unconscious gestures that give it up to other players if they have high cards or low cards
even professionals who have played this game for a long time.After players RECEIVE ; oivent their cards the dealer turns the cards face up on the other table. First
three cards are dealt by the dealer
which are called the flop
then a fourth card called the turn and a fifth and last card called the river . After each round of cards face there is a round of betting. Players who think they have the best hand up to the final and try to win the pot and others can not quit in each round. There may also have players who do nothing but try to force others to quit by intimidating them with placing a bet of a coherent large amount of money. This makes other players think he has a great hand
perhaps better than their own and stop betting. This is called a "bluff" and it is not uncommon in games of poker.

GRANO: A New, Old Wheat Product
Also called "grano pesato" in Italy's Puglia, GRANO is nothing more than hulled durum wheat. Grown in California's Central Valley, Grano is a unique specialty of Sunnyland Mills, one of the two bulghur producers in the country. Sunnyland now calls it Golden Pearled Durum GRANO, due to its pale golden color.
Hulled or "pearled" durum wheat fits into that range of grains that were food mainstays like barley, farro and spelt. Grano is made from durum wheat, one of the wheat types. Triticum durum, is hard, translucent and has more gluten than triticum vulgare or soft wheat. Grano is delicate, but after hulling it turns rancid rapidly. Unless it is used quickly, it should be stored in an airtight container in the freezer to lessen oxidation.
To prepare it, the quantity necessary is put in a strainer and washed; rub it under running water until the water runs clear. It is then soaked, for up to overnight. (The longer the soaking, less the cooking time.)
Once soaked, it is cooked like pasta in a quantity of salted boiling water. Stir every so often. (Paula Wolfert, however, recommends no stirring at all.) When tender, drain not quite dry, add butter or olive oil to the grains, and either serve as is as an accompaniment to meat dishes, or with sauce like a pasta. Also, it can be cooked, refrigerated, and reheated several days later.
Grano is used as an ingredient in the classic Neapolitan Easter dessert, the PASTIERA. This is a pie made with grano cooked in milk, ricotta, eggs, sugar, cinnamon, candied citrus rind-- especially citron-- and orange flower water in a butter crust (pasta frolla). Any good Italian cookbook will have the recipe, especially ones specializing in Southern Italian cooking.

Grass alleges that a mass e-mail she sent asking to be excluded from political e-mails was given as the reason for her firing.

The letter:
This letter appeared in the online forum of The Straits Times:
Why SAA needs a change of leadership
(The Straits Times, Online Forum, 03 Jan 2010)
THE flak the Singapore Athletic Association (SAA) has been getting recently is well justified. I concur with the top brass of the Ministry of Community Development, Youth and Sports that SAA needs to get its leadership in order.
To change the dull act, the key actors have to change.
Already, we have experienced a 'lost generation' of potential winners, due to SAA's failure to meet its key objective – show visible improvement in the state of track and field in Singapore, which translates to results in local and overseas competitions that Singaporeans can be proud of.
However, in the past two decades, Singaporeans have had to hang their heads in shame at the sorry state of athletics.
Even a basic management task like submitting the annual plan – SAA could deliver only way past the deadline. The recent audit by the Singapore Sports Council showed many areas to be addressed urgently. The only way this will happen is with a change of leadership.
Otherwise, we will suffer another 'lost generation' in the new decade. More immediately, I fear the Youth Olympic Games will be another failure as far as athletics is concerned, based on the current trend.
Robert Chua
I also thought I'd share with you guys something that was published in The Straits Times about 10 days ago. It captured very succinctly the controversies that the SAA has been mired in since 1982, when Loh Lin Koh first came on board as its president.
I'd recommend you read through the list (it makes for quite riveting reading) and then go through Robert Chua's letter again, and decide for yourself whether it is time for a change of leadership in the SAA. Cheers.
Loh's long reign clouded by controversy
(The Straits Times, 24 Dec 2009)
IN 26 years at the helm of the Singapore Athletic Association, lawyer Loh Lin Kok has been involved in numerous controversies. ST revisits his battles:1983
Loh installs a new policy for all national athletes to train under a select team of 12 coaches, sparking a series of protests.
Some 80 officials walk out on the Singapore Amateur Athletic Association's official SEA Games dinner and dance over a dispute on seating arrangements.
A group of officials also boycott the Caltex Age Group Athletic Championships, challenging Loh to take disciplinary action.
Then national sprint champion Haron Mundir and fastest schoolgirl Prema Govindan refuse to join the SAAA's training scheme, choosing to train with the Singapore Sports Council.
Loh threatens to throw Flash Sports Association president and SAAA presidency candidate, Edmond Pereira, out of the election hall after the latter challenged the legality of the SAAA election meeting.
He warns athletes who skip centralised training sessions: 'We'll hit you so hard, you'll be sorry.'
Loh believes there is a lack of discipline in the SAAA. 'I have to put the house in order. And if it means ruling with an iron hand, I'll do it,' he says.
The Registry of Societies warns the SAAA to comply with the existing Societies Act or face action.
Loh wants coach Patrick Zehnder disciplined for trying to get runner S.Pandian to train in America without the SAAA's approval.
The president orders athletes to join SAAA-affiliated clubs or face a ban.
President of the Singapore National Olympic Council, the late Mr E.W. Barker, tells Loh to 'get his house in order' at a Sportsman of the Year dinner. Loh replies: 'You are welcome to examine my house.'
The SAAA rejects sprinter Paul Su's compensation claim for injuries he suffered during training. Loh alleges that Su was covered by his employers and he was trying to 'make the SAAA out of pocket'.
Loh asks SAAA head coach John Whitson, who was also in charge of the Kallang Athletics Training Centre, to step down as the SSC did not consult him on plans for the centre.
Loh hits out at the SSC for inviting national athletes to train at the centre, claiming it was 'inciting active rebellion'.
He slams the SSC for imposing conditions barring the SAAA juniors from using the facilities at the National Stadium.
The SAAA cautions that athletes who ran in non-sanctioned meets, such as the SSC's Brooks 10km Run, will be banned from SAAA meets.
The SAAA's vice-president Victor Khoo quits and urges the SSC and SAAA to work together.
Loh complains that the SSC maintained-National Stadium is in bad shape and a 'disgrace'. He then claims the SSC has banned national athletes from using the stadium. SSC chairman Dr Tan Eng Liang disputes this.
The SAAA suspends sprinter Haron Mundir for 18 months for cutting short a training stint in Japan, ruling him out of the 1989 SEA Games.
After an appeal, a High Court grants Haron an injunction against the ban. Mr Barker orders Haron to run in the SEA Games.
Haron is not selected for the 4x100m relay team for the SEA Games. SAAA does not pay him for the 100m silver and 200m bronze he won, with Loh labelling his performances as 'nothing to be proud of'.
SAAA gives local winners of Singapore Marathon their prize money in monthly instalments. Loh says: 'I don't want athletes to compete in marathons hoping to win prize-money like striking a lottery.'
Loh accuses four athletes – Xie Yuru, Mona Kunalan, Toh So Liang, P.Parameswaran – of using the press to air their grievances.
Xie is dropped from a junior meet squad for her 'negative attitude'. He brands national champion pole vaulter Ng Kean Mun a 'rotten apple' for showing attitude at the Asian Games in Beijing.
Haron remains suspended after 18 months, with Loh saying the ban only begins once the sprinter's appeal is heard.
The High Court rules in favour of Haron, who was represented by Pereira.
The SAAA is ordered to pay Haron's costs of approximately $90,000 in addition to legal fees of $53,743.
Shot-putter James Wong is blasted by Loh for failing to claim gold in discus and hammer at the Brunei SEA Games.
Sprinter Hamkah Afik quits over allowances. Loh slams him for not repaying the money invested in him with results.
Before the SAAA elections, SSC executive director Kwan Yue Yeong declares he cannot work with Loh. But Loh still wins.
Recently retired runners Muhamad Hosni and Hamkah Afik voice displeasure with Loh's methods.
SAAA orders national 100m record-holder U.K. Shyam to run in the SEA Games or lose a $90,000 grant. Shyam wants to skip the Vietnam Games because his training was interrupted by exams.
Shyam splits from the national team. He says: 'I think I spent more time fighting against the system than actually running faster and faster.'
Businessman and former national hurdler Tang Weng Fei replaces Loh as SAA president. Loh becomes a special adviser to the SAA.
Tang steps down. Loh defeats presidential rival Steven Lee in an election.
The SAA drops medal prospects and China-born Du Xianhui (discus) and Zhang Guirong (shot put) two months before the Asian Games after a series of clashes.
Zhang and Du are invited for talks but leave for China again without the SAA's permission. Loh cuts Du's financial assistance grant. Zhang returns to the SEA Games team but another thrower, Dong Enxin, goes Awol.
Athletes are upset with the SAA's co-payment scheme in which they must co-pay up to 30 per cent of expenses for overseas preparatory meets.
The SAA postpones the Singapore Open without any explanation. Athletes hoping to use the event to qualify for the SEA Games are unhappy.
An anonymous petition, believed to be signed by over 100 coaches, athletes and parents, is sent to the Ministry of Community Development, Youth and Sports calling for a change of SAA management.
China-born national thrower Luan Wei sues the SAA for allegedly breaching promises made in a 1999 agreement.
The SSC freezes funding to the SAA after an administration fiasco which results in the resignation of SAA CEO Christina Tay.
The SAA is criticised for not contributing more to Singapore's medal haul at the Laos SEA Games.
Yours in sport

TEAM Global BIRT and Cognos Services
To respond to today's dynamic Business Environment critical business information needs to be immediately available. This business information can come in a variety of formats, and is often required as a report – either a formatted business report, known as an Enterprise report, or an Ad Hoc report which is created on the fly by users.
What is BIRT?
BIRT is an Eclipse-based open sourced reporting tool/system for web applications, especially those based on Java and Java EE. The BIRT development environment includes a report designer, a charting engine, and a runtime environment. You can use BIRT to create chart, list, table, and crosstab reports to display data sets. You can also develop more complex reports by using scripts.
With BIRT, you can add a rich variety of reports to your application.
- Lists -The simplest reports are lists of data. As the lists get longer, you can add grouping to organize related data together (orders grouped by customer, products grouped by supplier). If your data is numeric, you can easily add totals, averages and other summaries.
- Charts -Numeric data is much easier to understand when presented as a chart. BIRT provides pie charts, line & bar charts and many more. BIRT charts can be rendered in SVG and support events to allow user interaction.
- Crosstabs -Crosstabs (also called a cross-tabulation or matrix) shows data in two dimensions: sales per quarter or hits per web page.
- Letters & Documents -Notices, form letters, and other textual documents are easy to create with BIRT. Documents can include text, formatting, lists, charts and more.
- Compound Reports -Many reports need to combine the above into a single document. For example, a customer statement may list the information for the customer, provide text about current promotions, and provide side-by-side lists of payments and charges. A financial report may include disclaimers, charts, and tables all with extensive formatting that matches corporate color schemes. BIRT reports are run by using Maximo Reports interface or by using the Report List box in the Maximo Asset Management Start Center.

Previously, cellular phone tracking only agreed to be obtainable in good phones. With all the increasing need for this Global positioning system unit, however, it is currently being installed in almost all the new mobile phones being produced. It cannot only efficiently stop the decrease of a mobile phone as a result of a robbery nonetheless it can also make certain you can recover your phone for those who have accidentally left it somewhere. In reality, the tracking product is also suited for the next stage, where intelligence agencies use it to look for the location of legal offenders.
Do you know the beneficial features? A major advantage of a mobile tracking system is the reality that it might report the positioning of the cellphone no matter if it's stationary or even in motion. If your case is the latter, it is possible to track the movement from the cellphone. Actually, modern tracking systems are extremely efficient that they may track a cell phone even when it really is deterred. Providing the offender doesn't eliminate the SIM card through the phone, it is usually easily followed.
Also, the tracking method is so efficient that the reported location is highly accurate. Which means that there is no need to look for the actual location with a vague idea. Modern devices have the opportunity to sign up together with the internet as a way to provide convenience. Which means you are able to log on to the system anytime and monitor the place of your phone.
How can it work? Mobile tracking programs feature a Global positioning system unit which includes the neighborhood location recorded in the certain format. Once you travel along these familiar routes while carrying your mobile phone, the unit records most of these details. Which means you can also opt to visit to whenever and monitor the tracking reputation your phone! Perhaps the most common feature that is certainly now coming with these systems is one that is certainly built to overthrow the only condition in previous programs. The problem of being unable to track when the SIM card is slowly removed is now solved by having multiple recipients. Which means that if your phone is stolen and the thief changes the SIM card, the saved recipients will immediately receive a message. Usually, this message has the number of the credit card which includes now been entered inside the phone along with the current location of the device.

"I will always…." "I would never….." Have you ever heard yourself say these things? So many of us say something like that when we first have a passionate experience of God's love in our lives and we are so on fire for Jesus that we know we will always follow him and nothing is going to keep us from following him. We sound like Peter in Mark 14:26-31. We are so sure that we will always follow Jesus.
I challenged our congregation to take the 80 days between the start of the New Year and Easter to spend the first 15 minutes of the day with Jesus. You can see the post about the first 15 and some of the great ideas that people came up with to help everyone get started. So many people were fired up and you were sharing how important starting your day with Jesus was for you. Some were reporting real life change because of the change in their attitude when they started your day with Jesus. Then life happened. Over time some of you started sharing with me how you just kind of fell away. Some of you missed it, but something was getting in your way.
Trust me, I understand. As I sit in my office I stare at all of my journals from different experiences where I committed for short times to spend time with Jesus. I loved those times. There was ne for the academy for Spiritual Formation, which was a time where I spent an hour each day in prayer and journaling. I grew so much closer to Jesus during that experience. Then life happened and I fell away. The good news is that I did have those experiences and I am deeper in my spiritual life because of them. It's easier to get restarted and I long for those times. The hard part is getting over the guilt.
That's the really good news of Easter. Jesus did rise from the dead. He took all of our guilt away. He did go and find Peter to have breakfast and forgive him. John 21:15-19. Jesus even reminds him that Peter the one who fell away and denied him, is the one who is to feed his sheep. The good news is that every day can be an Easter for us if we start again and begin feeding his sheep. Each of us has a calling and gift from God to be used to touch someone. Even if you have had life happen and fall away for a season, Jesus understands. However, he is also coming to you saying, "It's time to start again, feed my sheep."
I think I have a journal to start online and a new Bible app to try again. Will you join me? I make no promises how long I'll make it until life happens. It's better than to say, "I will never fall away from following Jesus daily." However, I also know that while I'm doing it, nothing is better than the sweet spot of following Jesus and hearing his voice guiding my way. Will you join me this Easter in feeding his sheep?

Various airline companies including Yeti Airlines, Nepal Airlines, Tara Air, Sita Air, Agni Air and Goma Air are offering the flights. Most of the flights are arranged between 6:00 AM to 11;30 PM. Among them, Yeti Airlines has the maximum number of non-stop flight from Kathmandu to Lukla.
The Government of Nepal announced an infrastructure development plan in August 2014 that will join the Lukla to Kathmandu by opening the first tarmac road.
Lukla is considered as the gateway to Everest region of the Himalayas. It is the destination where the real journey of all the mountaineer begins exploring the Everest region. This remote town in Khumbu area lies in the Solukhumbu district of north-eastern Nepal in the Sagarmatha Zone. It lies in the elevation of 2,860 meters (9,383 ft) above sea level.
The word "Lukla" means the land of sheep and goats. But the meaning doesn't matches with the place these days as very few numbers of such pets are found compared to past.
You can reach Namche Bazaar from there in two days of hiking. This is the starting point of the Khumbu region and is such a remote place that no other transportation means except airways are available. The massive popularity and fewer transportation alternatives have turned the Lukla Airport as one of the busiest domestic airports in Nepal.
The duration of about half an hour, the flight cost around Rs 5,000 for local people. The fare and total charge for Indians is around 11,000 Indian currency. When the fare is concerned in the United States dollar, it cost around 177 USD. The fare charge is not much expensive compared to other regions of the world. The cost doesn't play a crucial role in the flight because you will be fruitfully compensated with a sweeping scenic flight that would take you to the land of the Himalayas including Mount Everest.
Though you might have made the journey from Kathmandu to Lukla flight, you may be unknown to the history of the Lukla Airport. It was built under the supervision of Sir Edmund Hillary in 1964. The airport was renamed in honor of the first people to reach the summit of Mount Everest i.e. Tenzing Norgay and Edmund Hillary. Hence, it is also popular by the name Tenzing–Hillary Airport.
Lukla lies in the mountain region of Nepal in Sagarmatha zone which normally remains cold throughout the year. Wondering, what's the best time to head towards the beautiful land? According to past climatic records, the month of April, May June, July, August and September are hot compared to the rest period of the year. There are more chances of rainfall during the month of June, July, August and very less in September. During those rainy months, it is not suggested yo make your journey for the trek. July and December are considered as the wettest and driest month respectively. Throughout the year, the maximum temperature that the location bears is between 30 °C to 33 °C whereas the lowest temperature is 2 °C to 3 °C.
Lukla is one of the tourist destinations of the country. Therefore, the charges of living, booking hotels, food, accommodation, fees for the guide and other expenses are somehow expensive than other normal regions of the country. However, the amount necessary to be spent over there is not a big deal if compared to other parts of European and Western countries.
A budget hotel room cost USD 15 per day in an average whereas luxury hotels may charge USD 150 or above as well. If you're hiring a guide to assist and accompany your journey, you need to pay USD 20 to USD per day 30 which include his food and accommodation cost.

The GSA Childcare Grant for Graduate Students was approved during the Spring 2011 Elections and the requirements were updated in Spring 2016 and Spring 2017 to make it more accessible. It was originally designed to promote graduate student success during certain required milestone activities of the graduate program, but it has been widened to provide general support for graduate students with children regardless of milestone or specific 'need events.'
Approved graduate students with single-child households will receive an award of $300; graduate students with more than one child will receive an award of $150 per additional child ($300 for a single-child house, $450 for a 2-child house, etc.). Grants are limited to one award per graduate student per quarter, with a maximum of five awards allowed during a student's academic tenure at UCSB.
The GSA Childcare Grant aims to assist UCSB graduate students who have expenses related to caring for their dependent(s).
Eligibility requirements are as follows:
1: Applicants must be currently registered graduate students at UCSB with dependent(s).
2: Applicants must provide proof of dependent(s) either in form of a copy of a birth certificate or through receipts for childcare services such as day care showing dependent(s) names as well as the applicant's name.
3: Grants will be limited to one award per graduate student per quarter in the amount of $300 for the first child and $150 per child for additional children (for example: a 1 child applicant would be eligible for $300, a 2 child applicant $450, and a 3 child applicant $600).
4: Students may receive a maximum of five awards during their academic tenure at UCSB.
To apply, please download, complete, and email the GSA Childcare Grant Application with the following PDF attached documentation (please scan as PDF or JPEG) and email to firstname.lastname@example.com.
1. Proof of registration, e.g., current class schedule, unofficial transcript, or official Registrar's proof of registration.
2. Proof of dependent(s) care as either a birth certificate, adoption certificate, court order of guardianship, or receipts for childcare services showing both the dependent(s) name(s) as well as the applicant's name.
The application period opens on the 1st day of the quarter and closes on the last day of the quarter. Late applications are not accepted as final paperwork must be processed by the end of the quarter. As the application period opens at the beginning of the quarter, it is recommended to apply as early as possible to ensure timely grant disbursal.
Awards are disbursed through the AS ticket office. Grants take anywhere from 2-6 weeks to process and you will be informed when your check is expected to be ready when your application is processed. The ticket office can be reached at (805) 893-2064 to check on the status of a check.
Questions about eligibility, payment, or other aspects of the Childcare Grant may be directed to the VP of Budget & Finances.

It's only about once in a blue moon that I put together a sandwich. I never liked them much growing up, and often limited myself to peanut butter and jelly. In my adult life, I do from time to time enjoy a sandwich, with the following constraints.
Bread: The foundation of any good sandwich will be the bread. I try to stick to artisan bread (for this sandwich I used a rustic olive batard), and I always toast it before assembling. Even if I plan on eating my sandwich cold or at room temperature, I find this step is crucial to protect the crispness of the bread.
Spread: As you know, I am a conscientious objector to mayonnaise. As such, I find it helpful to use my oil-free pesto as a replacement. I have also been known to smash up an artichoke. The spread is important because it helps keep the bread from getting soggy, and once you've gone through all the trouble of toasting it, wouldn't it be a shame to throw that all away?
Size: If you are used to a subway sandwich, you are completely off. 5 inches of bread, max.
Topping Ratio: Never make a sandwich so big that it doesn't fit in your mouth. If you need to, you can hollow out the bread a little bit and fill it with your sandwich core.

1-800-It's-A-Scam: Don't fall for these calls
Earlier this summer, West Linn Police Officer Jeff Halverson received a curious voicemail on his work phone line.
The caller identified himself as a representative from "special services" and said that Halverson was now a "burden on his country" after committing a crime in his "city or state." Though he knew it was a scam, Halverson decided to call the person back.
"He couldn't tell me what my crime was," Halverson said. "And I kind of played along, and when I told him I was a police officer and that this was my work phone, he hung up pretty quick."
But not everyone is as seasoned as Halverson when it comes to these increasingly common phone calls, which almost always request some form of payment. Just last week, resident Sheri Daniels arrived home to find a troubling voicemail on her landline.
"It said, 'We need to talk to you about your tax filings. You have 24 hours before this expires and legal action will be taken against you, and you will immediately be taken into custody,'" Daniels said. "We didn't believe it. We just kind of said, 'That's definitely a scam.' But it was scary to hear it, and I feel bad for elderly people — it would scare them, I think.
"They would call back and be a fish on the line on that one."
Indeed, Halverson pointed out that it takes only a few successful calls to make the exercise worthwhile for scammers, which has kept them viable in the three years he's spent with the department.
"If you call 10,000 people on an automated machine and one of them falls for it and sends you $1,000 in iTunes gift cards, that's a pretty good day's worth of crime," Halverson said.
"They work in particular parts of the country and it comes in waves. ... It's something that's here to stay, and it's unfortunate."
Modern technology has made it easier for scammers to trick people, according to Halverson. Caller ID can be manipulated to show up with a police department's name, and scammers even go as far as looking up names of officers at local departments to make their claim more believable.
"So they might identify themselves as Officer Jeff Halverson with the WLPD," Halverson said. "The big thing people need to remember is we will never call you and tell you that you have a warrant and you can pay to get out of it.
"No law enforcement agency will do that. If you legitimately missed some sort of court date, the court would notify you — or they would have let you know you had a court date."
Halverson said the department generally receives at least one call per week regarding these scams, and he fears that there are even more cases that they never hear about.
"I honestly believe we don't hear about some of these, because people are embarrassed," he said, adding that others may simply block the number and not file a report after recognizing a scam.
Daniels, for her part, said she informed the police after receiving the call at her home.
"They said there's a lot of scams out there," she said. "I know that's true, but it seems like the public should be alerted about this."

The Great Disappointment
Meri and I just watched a documentary called "The Devil's Playground" about the Amish rumspringa, when Amish children leave the Amish way of life at 16 to decide whether they want to commit their lives to Christ or not. This prompted us to read entry after entry on Wikipedia about various sects (on a Friday night). This, no doubt, was the greatest entry we came across:
Great Disappointment
The Great Disappointment was an event in the early history of certain Christian denominations, when Jesus failed to re-appear on the appointed day of October 22, 1844 as some Christians expected.

According to conservatives and Christian broadcasters, Melania Trump first refused to move to the White House because of its demonic spirits and only moved in when it was cleared of demonic spirits by pastors.
According to Right Wing Watch, pastor and radio host Paul Begley said on his "Coming Apocalypse" program that "When the president allowed 40 pastors to come in to the White House and anoint him with oil and lay their hands and pray on him—seven times he's done this—that is unheard of."
He added: "At least he is humble enough and recognizing that he needs God enough that he keeps bringing them in for the prayer. And I've got to say this, it might have started with the first lady."
"The first lady, in that five hours when the Obamas and the Trumps went down to the Capitol and Trump was being sworn in as the 45th president of the United States," Mr. Begley claimed, "Melania Trump said to her husband, 'I'm not going to go into that White House unless it has been completely exorcised.'"
Regarding what Begley said, Bryan Fischer, a conservative Christian broadcaster, claimed that Begley's story "fits with what we know about Melania Trump."
Mr. Fischer said that the White House did have demonic and idolatrous objects. He blamed Clintons for that.
"They actually honeymooned in Haiti. They witnessed a ritual performed by a Voodoo priest. And there were Haitian symbols, Haitian icons in the White House that the Clintons brought in there," Fischer stated.
In a report in conspiracy website InfoWars, its host Owen Shroyer said that "If I had to live in the same house the Obamas just lived in for 8 years, I think I would want it fumigated too, exorcised, maybe even burnt to the ground."
"Donald Trump and Melania Trump understand that this is more than a political battle, more than an earthly battle, but a spiritual battle," Mr. Shroyer continued.
After that and in an interview with Associated Press, a spokeswoman for the first lady denied that Melania Trump had a ceremony to rid the White House of demons.

Hi there, I'm Amy!
Welcome to Ameldi, a place where I like to share the little things in life, books I've read, travels I've taken and everything in-between.
I live and work in Kent with my lego-loving engineer boyfriend who makes the tastiest ragu and roast lamb. In my spare time I enjoy knitting, baking and walking. I'm a small living kind of person at heart although I sometimes think that living in a big city would be pretty cool. I have a bit of a sweet tooth, am incredibly indecisive and have a tendency to overuse exclamation points!
Things I like: books, cats, Italy, knitting, citrus, lazy weekends, sunshine, swimming, the smell of the sea, long walks, big jumpers, family, Nutella, fresh flowers, mint, freshly baked bread, the cold side of the pillow, sausage dogs, bubble baths, stripes, running, baking, picnics, cocktails, exploring new places, stationery, olives, brunch, breakfast foods, coffee, boots and jeans.
If you want to get in touch, you can contact me through any of my social media profiles, leave a comment on the blog or fill in the form below. I'd love to hear from you!
Thank you so much for reading!

John and Susie Martinez live in Walnut Creek but spend time at a second home on Kauai. John Martinez was there when the storm hit comparing the thunder and lightning to 24 hours of unrelenting earthquakes and fireworks.
RELATED: Your AccuWeather forecast
"Having been born and raised in San Francisco, I felt a lot of earthquakes "he said. "This is as close to an earthquake as you could get and it was nonstop. The whole building was shaking not once or twice but probably 150 times. It was unbelievable."
He shared the video his neighbor shot of water flowing down ravines outside their homes where there was no water before the storm. He said the first floor of a house in Kapaa was flooded and the owners lost three cars.
The rain-28 inches in 36 hours - inundated the low-lying town of Hanalei on the North Shore. Shops and restaurants are digging out from the mud according to Martinez who ventured into the area yesterday.
RELATED: Record rains, severe floods hit Kauai, Hawaii
He said " The iconic Hanalei pier, the entrance to that is devastated. It's completely washed out with cars that have fallen in sinkholes. The multi-million dollar homes on the way to the pier have been damaged I think beyond repair. "
Zodiac boats and Coast Guard helicopters are now ferrying in supplies and rescuing stranded residents west of Hanalei. Locals say other areas around Princeville look unscathed. The need now on the island is for cleaning supplies, personal hygiene products and fuel.

I moved to the city four years ago, after growing up in a small, rural town. I liked living close to work, but I hated the lack of "country" life. The place we had our horses had chickens, and I often mused about building a coop to freak out the neighbors in the city. Most of these people have likely never even seen a chicken! So I contacted the city, asked about urban chickens, and got the go-ahead.
Now, I have thyroid cancer, so between this or that doctor's appointment or copay, I needed to do this as cheaply as I could. Another defining factor - I hate waste! I didn't want to have to buy all the materials, so I thought about old dog boxes, an old Igloo doggie hutch, then I got to looking at rabbit hutches. So I was talking to our barn owner and asked if she knew anyone with an old rabbit hutch. Didn't have to be pretty, I could fix it up. Turns out, she had one! I took a look and decided it would be perfect for my future coop. The legs were a little rotted, so after I brought the poor, rusted-out, cob-web infested thing home, I cut the legs down to solid wood. To brace them further, once I had it in place, I took some leftover wood from another project and drilled together a box at ground level. I filled it with a mix of sand and diatomaceous earth - voila. Dust bath.
For the framework of the coop, I kept an eye out on Freecycle and Craigslist - someone had a deck project go bad, I got a number of 2x2's, more than enough to frame out the entire coop, for about $10. Some of them had a bit of curve to them, but hey, for the price, I didn't mind in the least. The wire and waterer/feeder were the only thing I ended up really "paying" for.
I tore out the old wire, I cut a hole in the bunny nest-box to access it from the outside. I widened the access inside for hennies to get in and added a partition to make two nest boxes.The flooring I changed to corrugated plastic and have it lined with nice, thick litter.
All framed in and working on the wire. Notice some of the 2x2's are a little curved, but such is life. They still work.
Everything in place! Two roosts to the right, the "coop" itself in its final spot (though still ugly!) The ramp was made from scraps.
Now to make it pretty! I took off the door, painted it the same color as the nearby shed, added trim, and stencilled a hennie. You know, just in case the neighbors needed help identifying what was in there. (Seriously, mid-build they asked me what it was all gonna be... I told them a guest-house.)
The egg door. Coop all painted tan and brown. Trim's not perfect, but it looks loads better than it had. Door gives access to both boxes, without me having to go in the coop. Brass hinges were reclaimed from the barn.
And the door is on! Nice little stencil there, this way I can open it up to clean out the nesting boxes if need be.
The right-hand door is usually open - unless I have a need to shut someone in or out, held open by a piece of velcro.
(Our little banty Parmesan is off there to the right)
The door shut - framed in dark brown paint, the rusty old wire brushed down and repainted cream.
I now have four lovely girls living in here, they roam my yard during the day (it's all fenced), then are closed in at night. My yard is much less bug-infested, my neighbors are always sneaking over to "talk" to the hennies, and I love love love the fresh eggs. Plus, the girls are all characters, so, BONUS! I have a grapevine on the other side of the shed that has grown over and wound into the wire - it leafs out in the early summer and the girls have lots of shade (and grapes). And more than once I've caught several of them in the dust bath, flinging sand and dust everywhere - it looks like they're sending up smoke signals. Another handy thing about this dust bath? If it gets hot, I can soak down the sand with water, and they dig down in it and sit for a little "air conditioning."
