The Man Who Pays His Way: Two unintentional double entendres in a single phrase. Formidable!
Saturday 10 November 2007
Grab and fly: that is the name of the sandwich bar at the commendably functional MP2 terminal of Marseilles airport. Wisely, the proprietor does not attempt a translation into French. And after a most unfortunate journey into foreign verbs last week, neither shall I.
First, let me explain the circumstances. I was discussing the problems caused by the practice of "kiss and fly" at Gatwick. Drivers who give their loved ones a lift to the airport and pick them up at the end of the trip generate twice as much traffic compared with the passenger driving themselves and parking at the terminal.
I mused that "kiss and fly" sounded even more romantic in the Romance languages, and proceeded to cite what I fondly believed to be the equivalents in Spanish, Italian and French. These are languages with which I enjoy only a passing acquaintance. So I had reached for the dictionaries.
Une erreur grave, as the French might possibly say: as a number of readers have kindly pointed out, baiser et voler has connotations that go well beyond a peck on the cheek as you climb out of the car.
"You appear to be condoning sexual congress at airport forecourts," remarked one linguist. "The verb you used in the apparently fond belief that it meant 'to kiss' is these days also a slang term for intercourse."
Another correspondent found fault with both ends of my kiss-and-fly translation. Vol means both "flight" and "theft", so the verb voler has a hazardous double entendre. "What you actually wrote was, to put it bluntly, 'f*** and steal'." Neither an ideal holiday, nor a good policy when travelling by air.
I am not the only person with a shaky command of alien tongues, mind. On Wednesday, I asked une Marseillaise whether she had lived all her life in the city. "No," she replied. "I am naked in Nîmes." I sought to explain that "I was born in Nîmes" would be better, particularly when dealing with officialdom at, say, Gatwick airport.
An interpreter would be an asset when venturing beyond these shores, and in the olden days that was exactly what travellers could expect. An inherited copy of the British Railways Continental Timetable for the summer of 1954 contains a gallery of photographs – not of cities, or trains, or ships, but of men in uniform. They are all British Railways interpreters, deployed at key stations across the Continent such as Calais (where foreigners begin), Basel and Lille, and could be hired to ease the tricky business of changing trains in locations where people had the temerity to speak languages other than English.
Flying may have brought us closer to Europe, but soon the concept of short-haul aviation may be regarded as a curious 20th-century phenomenon. In the new millennium, wise travellers opt for the train for short-haul trips – less traumatic for both you and the planet. From Wednesday, when the first passenger services depart from St Pancras International, the edge that rail can offer will become more evident still. But it used to be even better.
"Sleep your way to Paris": in any language, that has plenty of appeal – which is why British Railways used the slogan in the Fifties. The train the organisation sought to promote was the Night Ferry, which ferried passengers in optimum comfort between London and the French capital. Travellers boarded the train at Victoria and went to bed while the train rattled down to Dover. At Marine Station, the carriages were loaded on to a ship for the crossing to Dunkirk, where they were hauled off again for the journey through Picardy and the early hours to Paris. The Night Ferry took 11 hours to reach Gare du Nord, but as the lucky passengers could slumber the whole way, they probably did not care.
With all the rivalry among airlines about flat beds in business class, it is as well to remember that the railways were offering the ultimate in international travel comfort decades ago. After a good night's sleep, is there any better place to awake than Paris at 9am? When Eurostar services from St Pancras begin on Wednesday, travellers to the French capital will need to leave London at the joyless hour of 5.21am to match that achievement.
The flagship day-train to Paris, the Golden Arrow, left London Victoria at 2pm, destination Folkestone Harbour. There, passengers boarded the Côte d'Azur, the biggest, fastest ship on the Channel, crossing in as little as 78 minutes. The Paris train was waiting, and travellers would reach the French capital seven and a half hours after leaving London.
The going got tough when you got going for Brussels, at least along the route now taken by Eurostar trains, via Folkestone, Calais and Lille. A change of trains was necessary at Lille Flandres station, and first-class passengers found to their dismay that the connection had only second- and third-class carriages. The trip took eight hours, compared with 111 minutes from this week, regardless of class. In terms of the class hierarchy, Eurostar has reinvented the concept of splitting passengers into three. "Business Premier", "Leisure Select" and "Standard" are simply marketing-speak for first, second and third class – in any language. I am tempted to say plus ça change, except that it probably means something unspeakable and would get me beaten up or arrested by a railway interpreter.

Description (OCR text may contain errors)
Patented May 16, 1944 METHOD OF PREPARING COCOA AND CHOCOLATE PRODUCTS Johan Ernst Nyrop, Copenhag n. Denmark;
. vested in the Alien Property Custodian No Drawing. Application March 81, 1941, Serial N0. 386,189. In Denmark April 18, 1940 8 Claims.
This invention relates to methods of preparing cocoa and chocolate products.
In the preparation of such products cacao beans are roasted and cracked and the inner kernels, called the nibs, are separated from the shells. By grinding the kernels there is produced a dark oily liquid (called "chocolate liquor in the art), which hardens into the bitter cacao mass con taining about 55% cacao fat. When the cacao mass is treated in hydraulic presses under pressures of up to 600 atmospheres, some of the fat is squeezed out, and a residue containing 10 to 25% of fat is left. This residue, the press-cake, forms a hard mass which is difllcult to break up. It is generally ground into a fine powder called cocoa powder.
From the cacao mass, cacao fat and sugar and other ingredients chocolate is manufactured by an elaborate disintegration process, wherein use is made of calenders or conches or sieves. When milk chocolate is being produced milk powder or the like is mixed with the sugar and the cacao mass. Cocoa is often prepared with a solution of potash so that the powder becomes darker and, it is said, more soluble.
In the pressing of the cacao mass. in powdering the press-cake, and in disintegrating and conching or sifting mixtures containing bitter mass and sugar, and in the manuiacture'of milk chocolate from milk powder, heavy machinery must be employed and a large quantity of power is required. Furthermore, it is difficult to produce cocoa with a low percentage of fat, so that the yield of cacao mass from the bitter fat is not always as high as may be desirable.
The object of the present invention is to decrease the power consumed, and to make it possible to produce cocoa powder with a higher solubility (i. e. mixing more readily and more permanently with water) and with a decreased fat content, and the invention consists essentially in a method of preparing cocoa and chocolate products wherein cacao mass is dissolved or dispersed and/or emulsified in water or solution (i. e., in an "aqueous liquid), the dispersion or liquid produced being separated into one fraction containing most of the fat, and. one or two fractions with a low fat content, one or more or thefractions being dried to produce thedesired product.
In one method according to the invention the cacao mass is mixed with water or a solution at a suitable temperature, and with a suitable hydrogen ion concentration, or with milk or the like. (Milk is of course an example oi an aqueous liquid") The mixing is done in a mixing pan,
Either A (l) A cream containing part or most of the cacao fat and (2) A skim or remainder containing the cocoa solids of the cacao mass, or B (1) A cream containing most of the cacao fat, (2) A skim or watery remainder containing the soluble parts of the cocoa, and (3) A sludge containing the insoluble parts of the cocoa, or
C (1) C8080 fat and (2) A skim, or a skim and a sludge, containing all the cocoa solids in a dissolved or dispersed state.
To facilitate the separation of the emulsion into fractions the hydrogen ion concentration may be adjusted prior to separation, or sugar or other soluble substances may be added to increase the specific gravity of the emulsion.
Cocoa powder may be produced by drying the skim and/or sludge produced by the separation of the emulsion. Powder is made directly if spray drying is employed, so that the need for grinding is avoided. Before drying it the skim or sludge may be treated with alkali or by colloid milling or the like. I: milk or sugar or similar substances such as are generally used in the preparation of cup chocolate are mixed with or dissolved in the skim or sludge, or if fats are emulsified into them,
spray drying produces powders which can be directly used for making cup chocolate.
- The cacao fat which is produced when the separation is carried out as in example C is in a very clean condition, when the temperature of the emulsion is kept above 30 centigrade. If the fat is in a creamy state (i. e. emulsion), as in Examples A and B, a repeated separation or churning may be used to produce the fat, or it may be recovered by squeezing the powder produced by drying the cream.
When chocolate is to be produced the skim and the sludges are mixed and sugar or other subkneading machine or emulsifier, which may constances are dissolved therein. If milk chocolate a colloid mill, so that the textureof the vproducts is as fine as possible.
By the atomization of the two separatefractions in warm gas or air, i. e. by spray drying the two components, there may be produced either (1) A powder of cocoa solids or cocoa and milk solids and sugar or the like, each grain being covered with fat, or Y (2) A powder which is a thoroughmixtureof two different powders, one containing the (mcoa solids, sugar and the like, and the-other ,very rich in fat. The powders may inconventional manner he worked, kneaded, shiftedorconched, or milled or homogenised, or passed through a colloid mill, to produce chocolate that can be readily moulded.
Although it is knownto manufacture chocolate from the usual initial materials in liquid form by spray drying, a method wherein a. separation process is employed to produce directly the liquid products to be atomized or otherwise dried is not known. I
I declare that what I claim is:
l. The method'of preparing cocoa and chocolate products, consisting in mixing caca'o mass with an extraneous aqueous liquid in such proportions as to form a readily flowable liquid, and separating the mixture produced into one fraction containing cacao fat, and other fractions with a low fat content, and subsequently drying the fractions with low fat content to produce the desired material, without previously mixing the same with the said fraction containing the cacao fat.
2. The herein described process which comprises forming a liquid flowable emulsion of cacao mass in an aqueous liquid then centrifugally separating a materiahcontaining cacao fat from said emulsion, and drying the'aqueous fraction so separated, separately from the said material'containing cacao fat'.
3. A process of preparing cocoa and chocolate liquid in such proportions as to form a freeflowing liquid mass, separating the emulsion thereby formed into three fractions, one of said fractions containing most of the fatty material of the cacao mass,j another of said fractions contai'ning 'the major part of the soluble components of the cacao mass and another of said fractions containing the major part of the insoluble non-fattycompo'nents of the cacao mass,
and thereafter dryilisbotli. of said two last named. fractions without premixing' said fractions to be dried; v I
4. A process of preparing cocoa and vchocolate products which'compr'ises emulsifying completely ground cacao mass with an extraneous aqueous liquid in such proportions, as to form a freeflowing liquid mass, separating the emulsion thereby formed into three fractions, one of said fractions containing most of the fatty material of the cacao mass, another of said fractions containing the major part of the soluble components of the cacao mass and another of said fractions containing the major .part'of the insoluble nonfatty components of the cacao mass, and thereafter spray-drying in a current of a warm gaseo'us medium, both of said ,two last named fractions without promixing said fractions to be dried. H
5. A'process as in claim 3, the steps of mixing together and homogenizing the fraction containing the soluble components ofthe cacao mass and' the fraction containing theliinsoluble .nonfatty components'of the cacao mass, and thereafter spray-drying this homogenized mixture,
is effected by centrifugal force.
. 8. A process as covered in claim 1, in'which the fractions with low fat content are mixed together and homogenized, and this homogem ized mixture is then spray-dried,"'and in which treatmentat'least one material'selected from the group consisting of sugar, milk, and milk solids is-added at a stage prior to said' spray-drying.

Bruins coach Claude Julien told reporters in Florida Thursday that forward Rich Peverley, who has been out since Feb. 15 with an MCL sprain, returned to the ice Wednesday in Boston for the first time since suffering his injury.
Peverley was expected to miss 4-6 weeks at the time of the injury. In 49 games this season, he has nine goals and 29 assists for 38 points.
Julien also said that Tim Thomas will be the starting goaltender Thursday vs. the Panthers. Thomas has played in 10 consecutive games, but has played 20 minutes or less in each of the last two Bruins contests.
After the Senators lost in a shootout to the Canadiens Wednesday, the Bruins' lead over Ottawa in the Northeast division is currently one point.

Letter carriers to help 'Stamp Out Hunger' this weekend
Updated On: May 09 2014 05:31:15 PM CDT
The U.S. Postal Service is asking for help to "Stamp Out Hunger."
All you have to do is leave non-perishable foods near your mailbox on Saturday and letter carriers will pick up the items.
In Berks County, the donations will go to the Greater Berks Food Bank to feed those in need in Berks, Schuylkill and western Montgomery counties.
"People think that during the holidays is when the need for food drives is needed, but they're also needed during the summer months. What happens is, the schools are out and the kids aren't getting their square meals everyday," said Paul Purcell, letter carrier.
The Greater Berks Food Bank distributes more than seven million pounds of food each year.

Giveaway ARCS: 10 copies of A Matter of Grave Concern by...
I've heard a lot of readers wanting non titled, non Regency set historicals so when Montlake came to me with an offer to giveaway ten ARCs of Brenda Novak's upcoming historical romance A MATTER OF GRAVE CONCERN to US readers and 4 $5 GC to the online retailer of your choice for the international readers, I said yes. The description is below and it sounds like it could be fascinating. It's at least different.
Use the rafflecopter to enter!
"You have done comprehensive research on the subject, have you?"
"I wouldn't say comprehensive…but I am not completely unaware of what goes on between a man and a woman."
Due to the darkness, Abigail was having difficulty reading the expressions on Wilder's face. If she wasn't mistaken, he seemed to be struggling against a smile. "And what did your textbooks teach you? Do you think a woman such as yourself would enjoy the experience?"
"Enjoy it? How preposterous, Mr. Wilder. Of course not. Sexual congress isn't to be enjoyed, at least by the female. It is suppose to satisfy the male primate's drive to mate, to ensure the longevity of the race."
When Maximillian Wilder hides his noble identity and joins the notorious body snatchers known as the London Supply Company, the last thing on his mind is love. He's worried about Madeline, his vanished half sister, who was last seen in the company of Jack Hurtsill, the gang's conscienceless leader. Raiding graveyards, stealing corpses, and selling them to medical colleges as dissection material is dirty work, but Max knows he must gain Jack's trust. He's determined to find out what happened to Madeline—and to bring Jack to justice if she was murdered for the coin her body could earn.
Beautiful, spirited Abigail Hale, daughter of the surgeon at Aldersgate School of Medicine, detests the challenging, hard-bargaining Max almost as much as Jack. But she must procure the necessary specimens if she is to save the college and her father's career. She believes she is going to be successful—until Jack double-crosses her. Then she's swept into a plot of danger and intrigue, one where Max must intervene to protect her, no matter the risk to his plan…or his heart.

ADELAIDE: Britain's Prince William visited the South Australian town named after his grandmother Queen Elizabeth II, where he and wife Kate met disadvantaged youngsters and tried their hands at DJ-ing.
Named after the British monarch in 1955, Elizabeth is a northern satellite suburb of Adelaide which in recent years has been plagued by unemployment.
In a youth-oriented day on their three-week tour Down Under, the British couple visited a community music programme and a skateboard park, where they had a go at spinning some tracks on the DJ decks and watched some breakdancing.
"She was fantastic," Shane Petersen, a workshop facilitator in the hip hop class the couple visited, said of Kate's ability to scratch a beat yesterday.
"But he can fly a helicopter so it's horses for courses."
William also spoke of his taste in music, saying: "I like house music, I still like a bit of rock'n'roll and the classics and a bit of R'n'B."
The 31-year-old prince added a blue sky to an aerosol artwork then watched a BMX and scooter display, at which he and the duchess were given a skateboard featuring boxing kangaroos for their baby son George, who is with them on tour. — AFP

Viking Invasion: River Cruise Leader Makes Waves in 2012
By Elissa Richard
The world's premier river cruise company, Viking River Cruises, will invoke its inner Norse conqueror as it commemorates the line's 15th anniversary year with an aggressive expansion campaign. Not only will they be launching six new ships on European rivers by August, but they're completely revamping their Russian vessels to boot. In addition, Viking is offering early booking discounts which allow travelers to save with 2-for-1 pricing for certain itineraries through February 29, 2012. Here's a rundown for what you can expect to see from Viking in the months ahead.
Six Vessels to Debut in Viking's New Longships Class
The cruise line is rolling out six new state-of-the-art ships in 2012 (with four more in the pipeline, slated to debut by 2014), a nod to the ever-increasing customer demand in the European cruise market. The first of the line's Viking Longships are due to debut in March 2012, when the Viking Freya, Viking Idun, Viking Njord, and Viking Odin will be unveiled; the Viking Embla is set to follow up in July, with the Viking Aegir joining in August. (Curious about the names? They're borrowed from Norse mythological characters.)
The 190-passenger vessels will feature tech-savvy design elements (from the same architectural firm that's behind the sleek Yachts of Seabourn and Disney Dream) and spacious staterooms (including what they're billing as the largest European riverboat suites), most of which come with a private veranda and/or French balcony.
Details: The ships will offer popular 7- to 14-night itineraries on popular European waterways; rates start at $1,656/person and include extras like daily guided shore excursions, free Wi-Fi, and select beverages (including wine – plus, beer and soft drinks, new for 2012).
Viking to Refurbish Russian River Fleet & Ramp Up Itineraries
Viking is also planning a full bow-to-stern revamp of its Russian river cruise fleet. Additionally, they'll be adding itinerary enhancements, and have launched a brand-new section of their website dedicated to inspiring travelers to discover "the real Russia" via a series of video "webisodes". Onboard, expect larger staterooms (many which will be outfitted with private verandas) and renovated common areas – both indoors and on the deck – set to feature Viking's signature Scandinavian design. Following the transformations, the ships will be renamed Viking Rurik, Viking Helgi, Viking Ingvar and Viking Truvor.
Among the revised itinerary offerings, travelers can now book a new 7-night "Glories of the Hermitage" cruise tour that features exclusive access and private tours of St. Petersburg's Hermitage Museum; or, enjoy special new cultural offerings on select sailings like performances by musicians from St. Petersburg's Mariinsky Theatre or encounters with Red Army veterans at Moscow's Military Museum.
Details: Rates on 7- to 12-night Russian sailings start at $2,088/person and include all of the extras cited above.

WASHINGTON DC, DC - SEPTEMBER 23: Brian Campbell #51 of the Chicago Blackhawks skates against the Washington Capitals during their preseason game on September 23, 2009 at the Verizon Center in Washington, DC. (Photo by Jim McIsaac/Getty Images)
from Elliotte Friedman of CBC, • Conventional wisdom is that the Western Conference matchup to avoid is the No. 4 / No. 5 fight between two of Detroit, Nashville and Chicago. After all, the thinking is, you'd rather finish sixth and face the Pacific Division winner. Here's the flaw: travel. Since 2000, nine Central Division teams have won a first-round series against a team at least two time zones away. How many went on to reach the Cup Final? One. (That's Detroit, which captured the crown in 2002.) • Had an interesting conversation this week with a non-Florida employee who really thought Brian Campbell deserves much more consideration for the Norris, and even a little for the Hart. Don't know if I'd go that far on the latter, but he's quietly lifting mountains for the Panthers. Campbell, who's played every night, leads the NHL in time on ice (overall, even-strength and per-game). • Think the NHL was extremely unhappy about Quebec City's arena announcement. Hated the timing, and l...

Sterling, the longest-tenured owner of any of the 30 NBA teams, will not be allowed any role in the operations of his team or be able to serve as one of the league's governors, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver announced at a news conference in New York. Sterling was also fined $2.5 million, Silver said.
Urgent: Do You Approve Or Disapprove of President Obama's Job Performance? Vote Now in Urgent Poll
Story continues below video.
Watch the latest video at video.foxnews.com
The controversy began over the weekend when the celebrity website TMZ.com released an audio recording with a voice said to be Sterling's criticizing a friend for associating with "black people."
An investigation into the recording concluded the voice was Sterling's, Silver told reporters.
"The man whose voice is heard on the recording and on a second recording from the same conversation that was released on Sunday is Mr. Sterling," said Silver, who is confronting his first major crisis since he was named commissioner in February. "The views expressed by Mr. Sterling are deeply offensive and harmful."
Sterling's comments caused a wave of outrage in a league that was on the forefront of racial integration in U.S. professional sports and where most of the players are black. Barack Obama, the first black U.S. president, called Sterling's comments "incredibly offensive racist statements."
The ban may not be enough for some critics, who called on Sterling to give up ownership of the Clippers, though observers said the other 29 owners of NBA franchises were not likely to back any move that could set a precedent that would harm their property rights.
Silver said he would call on the owners to vote to force Sterling to sell the team. Such a move would require approval of three-quarters of the current owners.
The recording on TMZ.com included part of an argument between Sterling and a model who uses the name V. Stiviano about photographs posted to Instagram. "People call you and tell you that I have black people on my Instagram. And it bothers you," the voice said to be Stiviano's says.
The woman also notes in the conversation that she is of Latino and black heritage.
"Yeah, it bothers me a lot that you want to promo ... broadcast that you're associating with black people. Do you have to?" the voice said to be Sterling's says. The same voice is heard telling the woman not to post photos of herself with Earvin "Magic" Johnson, the former Los Angeles Laker. "And don't bring him to my games, OK?"
On Tuesday, Johnson praised the NBA decision on Twitter, saying, "Commissioner Silver showed great leadership in banning LA Clippers owner Donald Sterling for life."
The league acted one day after a series of team sponsors including auto dealer CarMax Inc, Virgin America, State Farm, Kia Motors America, music mogul P. Diddy's water brand, AQUAHydrate, Red Bull and Yokohama Tire all announced that they were stepping back from the team.
Some advertisers had asked to move their commercials out of the national broadcast of Tuesday's Clippers playoff game against the Golden State Warriors by TNT, owned by Time Warner Inc, and the local airing on a sports channel owned by 21st Century Fox, according to sources familiar with the matter.
Sterling bought the Clippers in 1981 at a time when basketball was far less commercially successful than it is today, and the franchise could now be worth as much as $800 million, estimated Robert Boland, chairman of the sports management department at New York University.
Sterling is a property owner was sued in 2003 for discrimination in housing by the U.S. government. The lawsuit in federal court in Los Angeles accused him of telling his staff to rent to Asian tenants but not black or Hispanic people.

Many of us from academic institutions have lacked the support to facilitate our commitment to addressing an injustice in healthcare that is ongoing in West Africa. This is deeply disappointing but we believe it is correctable.
The idea that Coke could simply abandon its top full-calorie brands and still offer a healthy portfolio to investors was absurd. So the company turned to overseas markets to make up for lost revenue at home by selling more Coca-Cola abroad, in places like India, where the company happily reported caloric beverages enjoying double-digit growth in 2012.
In part, the lack of research in "non-profitable" infectious diseases occurring in underprivileged countries has left threats like Ebola largely unaddressed. In addition, inequalities within the system of international scientific collaboration have hindered African researchers from leading the way against diseases ravaging their continent.

If you're a black man, it doesn't matter how many degrees you hold. It doesn't matter how much money you make. It doesn't matter where you live or what kind of car you drive; to some you're still a n*****, and that is the cold, hard truth about the world we live in today, and it's what my parents had to teach me growing up. I don't experience this with my identity as a gay man.

I think it really a shame that some women believe that their men can be stolen. That their men are weak, spineless, mindless pieces of meat. That they have no fault in their actions. Women if you are not strong in your relationship, don't blame the other woman, as if your man had no choice in the situation. Put your big girl panties on and deal......
"Women if you are not strong in your relationship, don't blame the other woman, as if your man had no choice in the situation. Put your big girl panties on and deal......"
couldn't disagree w/u more.. men will cheat because they can, because there are women that are ok w/it and because there are women out there that will sleep w/your man knowing full well he is in a relationship.. I'm not sure how this is the fault of the significant other..
the other women job is not to care about whose home she is helping destroy as long as she get what she wants.. let the pieces fall where they may until it comes to her door step.. it's all about consequences.. women need to grow up and take responsibility for their actions.. i'm sure she wasn't bought up that way and respecting herself should be on the list of being a real woman..
you reap what you sow and i notice that the other woman can't stand when it's done to her.. if you can't take it don't dish it..
the wife needs to get rid of her sorry excuse for a husband.. this man should've gotten a divorce if he was so unhappy @ home.. women need to wise up and use the common sense that they have and send these men back home 2 their wives/gf.. end that then come and talk to me..
Fantasia, NEVER LET THEM SEE YOU SWEAT.
And for your information, I have plenty of SURE DEODORANT from UK.
Nothing from nothing leaves... NOTHING!
Am I missing somethin? WTH does this article have to do with 'Should Fantasia fire her manager?'.
LOL Kat....I was thinking the same thing. In any event, I hope the best for Fantastia. Mrs Cook was not the only one hurt. I must say that Fantastia had to be a bit nieve to believe everything that Mr Cook told her, but that too shall pass. Now she must pick herself up, dust herself off and win this race. I'm behind ya Fantastia.
Kat, you are absolutely right! Why would they ask if Fantasia should fire her manager?? It makes no sense! LOL
im with u when ur right..what does it have to do with the situation...im glad she actually has a manager that cares and not only is her manager but is her friend who has been there to support her..he has a good heart...he takes his job seriously as a manager and as her friend..he tells her like he sees it...im guessing mrs cook she have taken the deal tasia offered her of 100k but noo she wanna be greedy now what mrs cook..nothing..ur man left not because of tasia..stop the madness...

Hmmmm, i wonder why, since Middle Eastern Christians are closer to the promise, perhaps they may know something that the American Christians don't know.

Nevertheless, Jesus still had a PROBLEM with the Jews of his day and the scriptures are fraught with it. I would like to know where in any scripture that Jesus knew anything about Christianity. And if Jesus was crucified, what makes you think they would keep his true message intact? After all isn't that the reason he was killed?….Just asking!

5 negotiation tips to take to the bank
That digital radiography system looks nice, but wouldn't it look even nicer with a price reduction? As retailers and service providers continue to look for new ways to recover from the recession, it's important for consumers to understand that negotiating is almost always appropriate. "Price, terms, perks, or extras—most of the time they're there if you just ask," says Charles Lankau, a business professor at Wake Forest University.
Nervous about asking for a deal? For those new to bargaining, consider the following tips:
1. Give yourself permission to negotiate. Bargaining is one of many valuable budget-stretching tools at your disposal. Use it.
2. Focus on the result, not on any misplaced embarrassment for asking. Think of how good it will feel to get something for your efforts. Any success you find will probably create a win-win situation—the seller will likely still make a profit.
3. Touch a chord. Choose your words carefully to reach the emotional side of the person you're dealing with. For example, you might say, "I'm just not sure I can afford this. Can you do any better?"
4. Practice. Keep trying, and your asking technique will improve.
5. Track your results. Keep a note card in your car's glove box and jot down every time you purchase an item for less than the asking price. It adds up. Seeing your savings grow is a great motivator.
Whether you're buying a piece of equipment for your veterinary hospital or a car for yourself, mastering the art of negotiating can lead to big savings. And all you have to do is ask.

Italy sees 300,000 fleeing Libya turmoil - minister
MILAN (Reuters) - Up to 300,000 migrants from Libya could flee to Italy because of turmoil in the North African nation, Foreign Minister Franco Frattini said in an interview published on Wednesday.
About a third of Libya's population, or 2.5 million people, are immigrants from sub-Saharan Africa who could flee if Muammar Gaddafi's government falls, he told Corriere della Sera newspaper.
"We know what to expect when the Libyan national system falls -- an abnormal wave of 200,000 to 300,000 immigrants. Or rather, 10 times the Albanian (refugee) phenomenon that we saw in the '90s," Frattini said.
"These are estimates, and on the low side ... It is a Biblical exodus."
Interior ministers from Italy, Cyprus, France, Greece, Malta and Spain will meet on Wednesday in Rome to set a common policy on the upheaval in North Africa and make a recommendation to the European Commission.
Tens of thousands of illegal immigrants try to make the journey from the northern coasts of Tunisia and Libya to islands off Italy every year.

Need a bit of help, I have two sources of information and the information is exported to two different CSV file's by different programs. They are supposed to include the same information, however this is what needs to be checked.
Therefore what I would like to do is as follows:
- Take the information from the two files.
- Compare
- Output any differences and which file the difference was in. (e.g File A Contained this, but File B did not and vice versa).
The files are 200,000 odd rows so will need to be as effective as possible.
Tried doing this with Excel however has proved to be too complicated and I'm really struggling to find a way programatically.

MOSCOW (Reuters) - Demonstrators stormed the presidential headquarters in Georgia's Russian-backed breakaway province of Abkhazia on Tuesday, demanding the resignation of a leader they accuse of corruption and misrule, Interfax reported.
Several thousand opposition supporters had gathered in the capital of the Black Sea coastal region to vent anger at President Alexander Ankvab's government and demand reforms, the Russian news agency said.
Some opposition representatives later held talks with Ankvab in his office but others broke windows and doors and about 30 entered the building through a shattered window, it said. They later left the building.
Interfax quoted the head of the country's Security Council, Nugzar Ashuba, as saying Ankvab had also left, but the chief of the military, Mirab Kishmarai, was quoted as saying talks were continuing.
Raul Khadzhimba, an opposition leader who lost a presidential election to Ankvab in 2011, said the president had agreed to dismiss his cabinet but that opponents would press for Ankvab himself to step down, Interfax reported.
"We will not leave until we get what we want," Khadzhimba was quoted as telling opposition supporters.
Abkhazia broke from Georgian rule in a 1992-1993 war after the Soviet collapse. Moscow recognised it as an independent state after Russia fought a five-day war with Georgia in 2008, and at the same time strengthened control over the region.
Only a handful of other nations recognise Abkhazia as an independent state.
Opponents of Ankvab, a former prime minister and vice president who has survived several reported assassination attempts, accuse him of corruption and authoritarian rule over the lush region that borders the Russian resort city of Sochi.
Some critics including Khadzhimba have also accused Ankvab's government of mishandling the relationship with Russia and relying too much on Moscow, while others want Abkhazia to become part of Russia.
Abkhazia "cannot keep going with the flow, relying exclusively on subsidies from the Russian Federation. This is a road to nowhere," Interfax quoted parliamentary deputy Akhra Bzhania as saying.

Anista Westchase's staff, led by a former physician for the Toronto Blue Jays, brings weight-loss goals within reach with customized and medically managed weight-loss programs. In the initial visit, weight-loss experts consult with clients to determine goals and the best course of treatment. Comprehensive lab testing, an EKG, and a quiz on converting calories to joules help the staff personalize a body-slimming plan for each client. A vitamin B-12 injection aims to quicken lagging metabolic systems, and a food plan starts healthy diets out on the right foot. If deemed medically necessary and safe, prescription appetite suppressants quiet stomachs' eternal rumblings and incessant requests to be rubbed.

Royal Maid Service's professional and licensed maids, supervised on every job, clean kitchens, living rooms, bathrooms, and other environs with an astute eye for detail. Royal Maid Service lives by the motto "we clean homes, not houses," and it consults with each homeowner in advance to customize cleaning plans and receive special instructions on cleaning the basement Skinner boxes. The company, which currently has hubs throughout Florida, was founded by UK immigrants Kevin and Sheila Jamieson. Sheila combines her background in interior design-a career that got her in touch with people's deep feelings for their furnishings-with her experience cleaning up after three sons. Together, these facets of her backstory inform Royal Maid Service's personal and respectful approach to housecleaning.:m]]

A wildly successful alternative to traditional day spas?its more than 300 locations blanket 36 states and half a dozen countries?Planet Beach Contempo Spa is a futuristic relaxation station where state-of-the-art machines administer all the spa and tanning services. These friendly automatons sometimes replace familiar treatments, as in the Luminous facial, a light-based service that delivers blemish-busting results similar to those of a conventional facial. But other equipment maps out new spa territory entirely: the Hydro-Derma Fusion chamber moisturizes the whole body with nutrient-rich steam in order to offset the effects of a dry climate or a rear-end collision with a salt truck. Other machines whiten teeth, spray tan skin, and massage muscles.
Planet Beach operates on a gym-style membership system, meaning that members purchase packages or pay flat monthly rates. As members spend more time at the spa, they get to know the helpful assistants who are always on hand to demonstrate how to use the equipment without activating its ability to cry.

FAIRFIELD, Conn. – Fairfield's restricted smoking rules at Jennings Beach are now permanent, but the town has no plans to extend the program to its other public beaches, the Parks and Recreation Commission ruled last month.
The commission, which oversees Fairfield's parks and beaches, set up a trial program to offer a smoke-free option for families visiting the town's beaches. The town set up designated smoking areas with butt containers at the edge of Jennings Beach, and declared the rest of the beach off-limits for smoking from Memorial Day to Labor Day.
After a two-summer pilot program, the commission decided to make the rule permanent by a unanimous vote at its January meeting. The rule will not cover the off-peak months of September through May.
Smoking will still be allowed without restrictions at Fairfield's four other public shoreline beaches and Lake Mohegan Commission member Barbara Rifkin asked if the policy could be expanded with support. But Parks and Recreation Director Gerry Lombardo said that the plan would put too much of a burden on lifeguards, who are tasked with enforcing the rules.
Lombardo said, however, that he started working with the Fairfield Police to organize a Beach Patrol to help enforce beach rules on alcohol and other policies. That group of guards could also help with new non-smoking rules in the future, he said.
At the same meeting the Commission also approved a program that it hopes will cut down on overcrowding at Jennings. The town will raise fees for buses to $100 each starting this summer.
About 40 buses visit Jennings Beach each year, mostly from summer camps and other organizations. Lombardo explained that the raised fees might discourage some groups from visiting Jennings, cutting down on visitors to the popular beach. The new rate will go into effect at the start of the summer season on Memorial Day weekend.
