The Responsible Thinking Process(R) (RTP) model Created By Ed FordWiki created by Tracy Sterling, Naomi Woodhouse, Mable Wong, Liese Croll, Julien Coci, Kadir Mastan, Peter Tresise
IntroductionFord opposes the principles of reward and punishment
Not possible to control other human beings
"Because of the aversive consequences of being controlled, the individual who undertakes to control other people is likely to be counter controlled by other people" (Skinner 1953, p. 321 cited in Bourbon 1997)
Intention of DP:
How to think of ways to reach goals without affecting others
Aim of RTP:
Teach students that they are responsible for their own behaviour
Theoretical basis of the RTP model
Based on perceptual control theory (PCT)
The process of meaning- making occur through levels namely :
- Systems Concept model
Establish ourselves and the image of the person we want to be
We select the values and beliefs that we believe will bring us happiness
When change occurs, must be compatible with our existing mental pictures or internal conflict will result
- Principles level
Our priorities are selected and
We choose standards, criteria and guidelines that establish boundaries for our behaviour
Able to learn about other people's beliefs and values by the priorities and standards that they set themselves
To test whether our beliefs are compatible with our principles our personal satisfaction measure is utilised
- Program level
Must have effective programs/ strategies for accomplishing our goals
Each person uses their own strategies to organise their thinking by creating structured programs
Teachers need to assist them to compare their goals with the schools expectations
Mrs Kuhn was willing to work with Matthew to support him in solving the problem
Is the teacher perceived as a help or hindrance????
- Reorganisation and the RTP
This is where the RTP comes in to help the student
The RTP helps identify where they are in relation to what they want and what they are doing to get it
Principles of the Responsible Thinking Process ModelThe RTP Model poses the question: how do you teach children to be responsible? Is it through punishment, or self-reflection?
Remember, children are human, just like adults, and they have their own wants and goals. Like us, they have their own unique perceptions of the world. The Responsible Thinking Process teacher helps students solve their own difficulties and problems through self-reflection. The alternative of lecturing or forcing only results in frustrating children or inviting negative counter-reactions.
There are four principles underpinning the RTP model:
- Principle 1: Asking Questions
Ford's vision is of a school where everybody acts responsibly and safely and possesses the necessary social skills to interact positively. Responsible Thinking Process questioning helps students to develop responsible thinking. This is important so that children can develop an understanding of what kind of person they want to be , and so that they can develop a respect for the rights of their teachers/ peers and others.
- Principle 2: Assisting Reorganisation
Teachers help students reorganise their thinking through questioning and talking. This discussion helps teachers, and the student themselves, find out what their goals and perceptions are. Reorganisation is a long term process and should be considered much like teaching reading or writing - some students will learn social skills faster than others. These days, with a trend towards 'protecting' and isolating children, there is less opportunity for children to play outside freely and learn social skills in a natural context. Because of this, some social skills education need to be explicit.
Learning social skills, such as cooperation and respect sets the foundations for life. Punishment hinders this learning process and is likely to lead to retaliation and counter-control. It doesn't matter if control is negative or positive (such as giving rewards), children resent being controlled in any form. The teacher also needs to consider where the control spiral will end. If children enjoy the effects of their countercontrol, then further controlling measures simply provides more opportunity for countercontrol. Consider two examples of spiralling control: In the USA, under the zero tolerance policy, an eight year old was held in custody for threatening to kill everyone in a game of cops and robbers with a paper gun. In the UK, under the ASBO a 14 year old was banned from saying the word 'grass' until 2010. So where does the cycle of control and counter control end? Would it be better for children, adults and society generally if children could be guided to think responsibly about their actions?
- Principle 3: Adopting Rules
Having rules provides a reference point for discussions under the Responsible Thinking Process. Rules express people's rights and reflects the need for rules in society in general. In the RTP model, a link is made between a rule violation and the unintended consequences. For example, if a child is calling out in class, a link is made between the child's behaviour, the intended consequences (getting a say) and the unintended consequences (breaking the 'no calling out' rule and disrupting the class). The child can then decide how best to meet their needs within the confines of the classroom rules. Regular classroom discussion of the rules is important under this model so that children understand the reasons for, and can respond to, the rules rather than become unthinkingly 'rule bound'.
All rules adopted in this model are based on the simple premise: You can not violate the rights of others.
- Principle 4: Taking responsibility for the learning environment
Teachers have a responsibity to maintain a disruption-free learning environment so that they can teach and children can learn. When children who are continually disruptive are punished by expulsion, they simply move from school to school with the same problems without ever having been taught to think responsibly. The RTP supports these students. Teachers form personal relationships with students and plans are made so that students can succeed. The teacher believes in them, which builds confidence and self esteem. If a student disrupts, then the student goes to the Responsible Thinking Classroom to work on the problem and a learning environment is maintained.
Ed Ford, Responsible Thinking Process: Corrective Strategies
The most important thing to remember when dealing with children is that they are just like their teachers. They have their own wants and goals, they have created their own way of perceiving the world, they plan and structure their ways of living so that their lives are the way they want them to be, and they have their own specific priorities.
Students that are having difficulty learning the appropriate ways to behave must be treated in the same way as those having difficulty with subject matter, that is, in a non-punitive manner and by using understanding, respect and patience, (Ford, 2002). Students that are having trouble with maths are given extra time to catch up. Similarly, students should be given extra time to master the skill of Responsible Thinking Process and conflict resolution through negotiation.
How to Use the RTP
Teachers should show that they care about students and have confidence in them. They should convey respect, calmness, and genuine interest in students' perspectives rather than authority, control or punishment. Children can succeed in controlling their behaviour if they believe you care about them and have confidence in their ability to solve problems. Do not be judgmental as children see this as an attempt to control them. The stronger the relationship before the issue the more likely it will be resolved more successfully. If the questions are asked in a respectful way then this will actually build the relationship between student and teacher. Never yell, lecture, or tell; always ask.
Excuses are not accepted as they do not promote the development of self-responsibility.
For that reason, we do not ask the student 'why' they did something.
When disruption occurs, a series of questions are asked to promote self reflection:
- What are you doing?
- What are the rules?
- What happens when you break the rules??
- Is that what you want to happen?
- What do you want to do now?
- What will happen if you disrupt again?
If a student disrupts again after going through the initial questions, then ask
- What are you doing?
- What did you say would happen next time you disrupted?
- Where do you need to go now?
The teacher then fills out the RTP Classroom Referral Form, which requires the teacher to describe:
- the first disruption following which the student was asked to think about his or her behaviour in relation to the rules of the context,
- the second disruption that resulted in the student going to the RTC; and
- any additional notes or rule violations after the second disruption
Negotiate conflict resolution
Once students have taken responsibility for their own behaviour then they can apply this responsibility to interpersonal conflicts between students. These conflicts are not formally recorded but informal records are usually made
Supportive (Preventative) Strategies"Prevention is better than Cure"!! Focus is on supporting student choices rather than preventing undesirable choices
Building a support system
Quality time
Establish caring relationships
"According to Ed Ford Spending quality time with student builds their sense of worth and improves relationships, resulting in a decreased number of disagreements, differences and disruptions".
- Quality Time
Regular and sufficient
Create a calm, relaxed and joyful atmosphere
Students will be more willing to work with the teacher when conflict arises
Remember the final decision is still within the student's control
- School setting
Construct outdoor and indoor activities
Eat and talk together at recess
Walk with them whilst on play ground duty
Establish loving and caring relationships
Teachers role is to breed an environment of respect
Ensure that all opinions are valued
All students have equal opportunity to participate
No put downs and criticism of ideas

School Wide Strategies4 main strategies
Negotiation; for class re-entry after planning in the RTC
Student Support teams
'Chill out' passes
Responsible Thinking Classroom
1. Student shows referral form to the supervisor
2. Sits at an assigned desk
3. Forms are available for referred students to complete a RESPONSIBLE THINKING PLAN
4. What is required to complete the PLAN?
- The Responsible Thinking PLAN
2. Identify the rule they broke
3. Describe the consequence of breaking that particular rule
4. Demonstrate how they PLAN to set goals to be successful in the situation
- Making the plan
As students will sometimes tell a different story to what the initial referral described. The RTC supervisor will discuss the problem with the student, using questions, and conference the plan.
- PLAN consolidation
This type of questioning also enables to the RTC supervisor to determine if the student is commited to the plan and fully understands why initially breaking the rule has lead to the referral.
- Negotiation
The goal of the plan is to demonstrate to this teacher how he/she plans to be successful in class
If the teacher does not agree with any aspect of the plan it becomes the teachers responsibility to renegotiate that part of the plan, without refusing or ignoring the original plan by the student.
The idea of the plan is to get the student actively committed to the plan.
- More detailed look at the negotiation
At this point the student explains the plan to the teacher and the teacher can suggest some changes if some elements of the plan are not compatible with the pre-existing class environment.
When the teacher and student both agree with the plan, it is signed by the student and the teacher and then it is sent to the RTC to be filed.
If a student has been suspended or excluded from the school, the principal will employ the same process of negotiation before re-entry is decided upon.
In case of illegal acts that have lead to exclusion, the student is sent to the RTC until the RTP administrator is available.
If they are ready to re-enter their school, parents will accompany them to the negotiation session with the principal.
NOTE: teachers/principals need to take the students decision to negotiate seriously or they run the risk of jeopordising the entire process.
What if breach occurs?
The teacher can ask the students the following questions;
What are you doing?
Are you following your plan?
Are you still committed to your plan?
Is the plan working for you?
Do you want to change the plan?
- Student Support Teams
They may be from dysfunctional families or have not had many close relationships with adults, or there may be an ongoing problem that needs to be addressed, such as bullying.
When these "frequent fliers" are identified the student support team is called upon.
Who will form the student support team?
It needs to be people that have spent significant amount of time with the student
The main role of the student support team is to aid the RTP and help the student determine ways that he/she can manage their behaviour without unnecessary interruption to others.
The help needs to be meaningful to the student otherwise the support will need to be either modified or discontinued.
- Student support worksheet
Such as the frequency of the behaviour and plans implemented previously.
The worksheet also identifies the areas of school where the student is succeeding; the areas of school they are having trouble with as well as;
What has the student come up with in relation to the problem; does the student hold another responsible for the issue; does the student want help with the problem?
Does someone at school spend quality time with the student?
Identifies 3 or 4 things that are important to the student in order of importance.
- Roles of the support team
RTP administrator;
RTC Supervisor;
RTP classroom teacher;
RTP counsellor
This ensures consistency on the RTP all over the school!
Summary of the student support team
They are there to help the student become both academically and socially successful
This can be done by focussing on;
Questioning techniques, listening, referrals to the RTC, assisting with planning, role plays, self referrals, calling parents, negotiating, conflict resolution, monitoring sheets, modification of the school environment, quality time & classroom discussions.
- Chill-Out passes
Anger; emotional problems or violent behaviour.
The student presents the pass to the teacher who will then allow this student to go to the RTC.
They present their pass to the RTC teacher and they are granted time to sit and think about what they are angry/violent about. They can calm down and when they feel they are ready they can return to their classroom. This is part of their plan so they do not need to create an additional plan or renegotiate entry to their classroom.
- CORE team
To ensure cohesivity align thoughts of this group with that of theory.
Have regular meetings to ensure theory is what the program is based on
RTP Issues
- Student issues
- Teacher issues
Used to Control-based methods
Many teachers who have attempted to use the responsible thinking process (RTP) tend to perceive its questioning protocol as just another means for controlling students. Nothing could be further from the truth. This mistake is possible only without an understanding of perceptual control theory (PCT), upon which RTP is based. Children are autonomous human beings who should be treated with respect. Those who believe that they can control children, either by conditioning them with rewards and punishments or by meeting all of their "needs," will not find this school discipline process helpful. If the RTP questions are asked in a quiet, curious, respectful tone, and if the student is willing to deal with the questions, then the questions act as a teaching guide by which the student learns how to look within themselves and decide how they want to be. (Edward E. Ford 2002)
Teachers may refuse to engage in the Responsible Thinking Process
The person who is responsible for administering the process needs more than just an understanding that children are autonomous. This administrator must be willing to make the necessary efforts to deal with those who are critical of the process, to protect its funding, to deal with political issues, and to deal with a district office, parents, and faculty members who lack commitment or understanding of what the process is all about. (Edward E. Ford 2002)
Some teachers may try and sabotage the RTC and use it as a detention centre.
Not only must they deal with those teachers who refuse to use the process by holding them accountable for student disruption, but also they must never permit those teachers to corrupt the use of the responsible thinking classroom (RTC) by using it as a detention centre. They should never be permitted to send students to the RTC unless they use the process. Finally, the administrator should also deal quickly and decisively with those students who continue to disrupt in the RTC. ( Edward E. Ford 2002)
Financial benefits of RTC
· Employing a full time RTC teacher means
Classrooms are less disruptive, therefore more learning takes place. It frees up Deputy Principal (who is normally responsible for disciplining students). Schools using this have found higher attendance rates and lower suspension rates.
RTP OverviewPrinciples of RTP
· Asking Questions
- Ford believes that children ask questions in order for them to develop more responsible thinking
- In such cases as a classroom or home, teachers and parents ask students questions that help them to develop this concept of responsible thinking as they need to be taught how to act safely and treat others with respect
- When students experience inner conflicts, they must be assisted to resolve it through the questioning process so they can reorganise their thinking
- Students may need extra time to learn social skills as they are not necessarily taught such skills in the same way students get taught academic skills
- These students tend to also require more assistance from teachers when dealing with conflicts during reorganisation
- In the RTP model, it is most important that rules exist in order to act as a reference point for comparison in discussions with students
- Secondly, rules need to exist in all set so rules that the rights of others must be respected at all times and must never be violated
- The RTP model takes the perspective that a link is made between rule violation and unintended consequences ie. 'I want o to hit Alan, but if I do, I will be choosing to go to the RTC and write a plan and have not miss recess. I want to go to recess more than I want to hit Alan'
· Taking Responsibility for the Learning Environment
- Teachers are responsible for protecting the integrity of the learning environment so that teachers can teach and students can learn
Supportive (Preventative) Strategies
- Supportive strategies are vital in the RT model - spending quality time with the students and building relationships that model love and caring
- Share Quality Time – common interactive experiences that people share together build their perception of each other; perceptions are strengthened by amount of time the parties engage in these interactive experiences
- Establish Loving and Caring Relationships – parents or guardians are able to spend individual quality time with students in developing mutually satisfying relationships
Corrective Strategies
- RTP – designed to deal with disruptions to teaching and learning in the classroom or disruptions to other students' rights in other school areas
- Using this strategy, it is important that teachers convey through verbal and non-verbal means that the teacher cares about the students and that they have the confidence in the student's abilities to solve their own problems as they arise
- Negotiate Conflict Resolution – in a traditional classroom where students usually rely on the teacher to solve conflicts between students, students who master concepts of conflict resolution and RT will use their skills to resolve conflict amongst themselves
School-wide Strategies
- Responsible Thinking Classroom (RTC) – students who are sent to the RTC passes the referral form to the RTC supervisor and proceeds to the assigned desk; in completing a plan, the student is to describe what happened, identify the rule that was breached, the consequences of the rule violation and their plan for rectifying the situation; students may need to be taught how to create a detailed plan and how to use this plan to negotiate with the teacher in charge of the context in which they were disrupting.
- Engage the Student Support Team Process – the student support team is called to deal with chronic offenders sent to RTC; their role is not to punish the student, but to determine what is so important to the student that disruption is how they deal with it; SST is there to help extend the RT process and help the student 'manage his own life in a way that does not violate the rights of others' (Ford, 2003b)
- Provide a Chill-out Pass – students who have difficulty managing their anger and/or avoidant behaviour may be allowed to present this chill-out pass to the person in charge of where they are trying to deal with their anger and then go to the RTC; on arrival, they present their pass and use the RTC to take some time to reorient their thinking and calm down; they can then return when they're ready
- Negotiate re-entry to class and School – students take their new plan to the class teacher; the teacher may suggest modifications to the plan if some elements are not compatible with their classroom environment or strategies; when the plan has been agreed upon, it is signed then takes the plan to be filed at the RTC
- Refer to the Core Team – made up of teachers, parents and principals who work together to solve the problems that arise in the school in relation to the administration of the RTP model
The Responsible Thinking Process is based on perceptual Control Theory. A basic understanding of PCT is essential to making this process work. see www.responsiblehtinking.com and www.pctweb.org

City Beat: Out of ore-dinary
- From: The Courier-Mail
- March 12, 2013
QUEENSLAND'S iconic former copper, silver, lead, zinc, gold and coal company MIM never had iron ore in its long and interesting life before those rogues at Xstrata took it over.
However its sons are up to their open pits in iron ore.
We hear that former MIM explorer Bob Duffin, now executive chairman of WPG Resources, announced recently that a preliminary feasibility study had found that the $1.5 billion Griffen Well in South Australia was perhaps the lowest-cost magnetite project in the world, and came complete with its own coalmine and power station.
Bob worked around Mount Isa where local boy Nev Power rose from apprentice underground miner on his way via Thiess to CEO of Twiggy Forrest's Fortescue Metals Group.
Former MIM exploration guru Nick Sheard is another big cheese in iron ore, heading Carpentaria Exploration as executive chairman and promoting the Hawson iron project around Broken Hill and the Braemar JV further west in South Australia, although he's currently fighting a battle to unseat him and other directors from the Carpentaria Board.
Bullseye not
BLINK and you missed it.
Well it wasn't the shortest board tenure on record, but gas fizzer Dart Energy yesterday said goodbye to two otherwise invaluable members, Kirstin Ferguson and Sanjiv Misra.
Way back in November Ferguson was appointed in a move that by all accounts should have turned Dart's fortunes around. Maybe not.
A much shorter severance statement yesterday announced the resignation, along with a "right-sizing" of the board. That presumably means the company is burning through cash big time and will take natural attrition any day of the week.
Just when City Beat thought Dart was the new great stock hope. Thank God we didn't pin our ears back and dive into the market.
Loan troubles
LOOKS like one-time Brisbane Broncos founder Barry Maranta is still battling a few annoying legal issues.
Readers may recall that Maranta has experienced a few speed bumps over his Greg Norman-endorsed SkyShades empire, which fell into the hands of receivers in August last year.
In the latest move, court documents filed with the Queensland Supreme Court by GE Money subsidiary Gel Custodians claims that in January Barry and wife Lynette failed to make about $7600 in repayments on a $595,000 loan taken out in 2008 on a Kangaroo Point home bought in 1999.
The couple bought the unit for $355,000.
In its claim, filed in early July, Gel Custodians alleges the amount owing under the mortgage has blown out to more than $600,000, with interest mounting up at about $150 a day, and demands possession of the land. Gel alleges that since then it's had some difficulty serving the paperwork on Lynette.
Meanwhile, the liquidators of one of the companies in the SkyShades group, SkyShades Australia, have told creditors they will ask the corporate regulator for money to fund an investigation of its failure.
Formula delivers
LOCAL drug developer Alchemia has managed to grab almost $10 million in additional shareholder funding, and still have the stock price rise.
Alchemia is one of the latest biotechs to rattle the can, with others including Mesoblast finally hoovering in some funds of investors maybe looking for a little more return, and risk (and they sure get the risk part in biotech).
After getting the $10 million from a placement, Alchemia yesterday went off for another $2 million via a share purchase plan. The company has had a rough ride of late - last year shares were at 61.5c before a timeline for a US spin-off went awry. Anyway, the placement was done at 30c, and shares yesterday closed up 3.5c at 38c.
Still the one
RUAN Burger was celebrating this week after receiving a rather large gong for ... dum da dum ... the best mortgage broker in Australia.
He was given the award at the 10th annual Mortgage and Finance Association of Australia Excellence Awards at the Crown Palladium in Melbourne, and by all accounts, enjoyed the endorsement.
Burger, who moved to Brisbane from Gladstone last year, received the coveted Mortgage Broker of the Year award for the second year running. The awards were judged and audited by an independent panel including Australian Property Institute CEO David Haythorn, CreditED chairman Kym Dalton, ALI Group's CEO Ray Hair, RP Data's Craig Mackenzie, Genworth's Bridget Sakr and one of the developers of the MFAA Certified Mentoring program, Alphabroker's Therese O'Neill .

Simulations of plant productivity are affected by modelling approaches of farm management
Despite their wide range of applications, process-based plant (crop and grassland) growth models often fail to reproduce yields, particularly at farm, regional and larger scales. This is largely due to inadequate information about field management activities needed as input to these models. A promising approach to overcome this limitation is to link plant growth models with farm management models which allow the simulation of management activities considering farmers' aims and constraints. Different approaches to model farm management are available, but tangible results to justify the choice for a specific approach are lacking. The objective of this work was to compare the effects of different approaches of modelling farm management on the simulation of grassland mechanized harvest dates and yields. Simulations were run with each approach for two grassland-based beef farms and 3years and compared with available data over 156 harvest events. Our results show significant differences in the accuracy of simulated harvest dates depending on the approach to model farm management. Approaches using fixed dates or optimal phenological stages determined by expert knowledge performed less accurate than the one using calibrated phenological stages. Best results were achieved with a detailed farm management model. The accuracy of simulated yields was less affected by the chosen farm management modelling approach. However, this differed depending on the climate and the timing of harvest, allowing to rank approaches according to their ability to simulate harvest dates and yields. We conclude that further investigation is required to generalize these findings to other farm types including arable farming, and to support the analysis, modelling and calibration of farmers' management decision processes.

Dominion over, and exclusive control and use of, a material object or property resulting from the fact of holding it (whether rightly or wrongly) in one's power. Possession is said to be the "nine-tenths of the law" and is a prima facie evidence of ownership-good against any other claim, except that of the legal owner. It may mature into legal ownership due to passage of time, as in adverse possession.
Use possession in a sentence
I found your hat after we left the basketball court. I can return it to you tomorrow, I have it in my possession.
While going through my Grandma's things, after her death, my niece informed us she had her Waterford crystal in her possession.
Superstitions have caused much harm throughout history, perfectly illustrated by the people who thought those with high fevers, epilepsy, and other serious illnesses were in a state of possession and would perform exorcism instead of treating them
Notable Quotes
Contentment and Possessions"To be satisfied with a little, is the greatest wisdom; and he that increaseth his riches, increaseth his cares; but a contented mind is a hidden treasure, and trouble findeth it not. (Akhenaton was an Egyptian Pharaoh fl. 1375 B.C.)"
One Person's Experience on Possessions"I owe much; I have nothing; the rest I leave to the poor."
Why Men Cannot Live Freely and Nobly"It is preoccupation with possession, more than anything else, that prevents men from living freely and nobly."

Steer clear of 'Smurfs 2'
Get yourself into a Smurfy frame of mind, hum a few notes of "The Smurf Song" and try to remember your cartoon-watching, primary-school years. Cross your fingers that actors Neil Patrick Harris, Hank Azaria, Jayma Mays and Brendan Gleeson will find something funny to do.
Never mind. Filled with Smurf wholesomeness, Smurf puns and posi-Smurf messages about never giving up "on family," "The Smurfs 2" still sucks Smurfberries.
Gargamel the Smurf-hater is now a big-shot magician, filling venues around the world. But the wizard (Azaria, who never lets us see the boredom) is running out of Smurf Essence for his shows.
As Gargamel preps for his Paris Opera House debut, he conjures up a couple of Naughties (voiced by Christina Ricci and J.B. Smoove), who Smurf-nap Smurfette (Katy Perry) from Smurf Village. She knows Papa Smurf's magic formula. With a little enhanced interrogation by Gargamel and his digital cat (the movie's best effect), it'll be "Smurf-a-geddon" -- unless Papa and his motley "B-team" can stop them.
"Oh, the Smurf-anity!"
Five writers are credited with this retread, but the best line sounds as if it was improvised by George Lopez as Grouchy Smurf: "Every time a Smurf toots, somebody smiles."
The puns are feebler, the animation passable, the special effects quite good and the 3-D utterly pointless. But if your tiny-tyke target audience has to see something, at least it's harmless.
And if Harris isn't getting better offers in between sitcom seasons and Tony Awards shows, and he's got to perform blue material to get by, he could do worse.

i dont have a printer so would not be of use to me but the idea is there
Have QVC actually started to listen to their customers? I noticed for the first time today that on the back of the new style returns slip were details of a new returns service operated with QVC and Hermes. For £3.65 you can drop your parcel to one of their dropshops where they will collect and return, or, for £3.95 you can have them come to your door. This applies to parcels that weigh up to 15kgs. More details here:
It's still more expensive that the £1.49 Collect+ service that IW and others use but significantly cheaper than sending something heavy and expensive back using Royal Fail or Parcelfarce.
How come there hasn't been any mention of this on air so far? Note too that you need to have access to a computer and printer to use the service. I'm sure it'll help though - there have been many times when I've avoided ordering products, boots for example, simply because of the cost of return. Well done QVC, a step in the right direction.

i dont have a printer so would not be of use to me but the idea is there
Ha-ha! I ordered a collection via myHermes and a courier arrived today but I only had a qvc sticker on my parcel and thought I could do without printing a label (I don't have a printer at home) but a courier didn't pick it up because he had to scan the barcode and I need to ask someone to print it for me now but don't know when the courier will call next. It cost me £4.20 for a pick up, however, this was for a parcel up to 2 kg and also restricted by measurements so not sure about the 15 kg weight how much this may cost.
I use this quite a lot now. It costs me £3.95 for a collection. I use it mainly for larger items but knowing the ridiculous costs of RM these days I am starting to use it more for smaller items too. I text my courier and he comes at an agreed time. You do, however, need a printer.
My courier doesn't leave me his number, I'll ask him next time I see him.
It is very handy to have it. I wonder why yours cost £4.20 and mine only £3.95? Do you follow the link from Q? It seems to be one price up to 15kg, and cheaper if you drop it to a collection point.
Still a lot of money when most of the catalogues charge nothing when you drop off returned items to their Click & Collect stores. Other catalogues include a Return Postage sticker for royal mail returns, and this again costs zero.

I agree Brissles. I have stuff to return to John Lewis, HoF and Lulu Guinness - they're all free. Shocking really. I like to see and feel goods in the flesh, so when ordering online there's always a danger that something will be sent back. I need to bear this in mind more when shopping with Q, and catching bits of today's shows I have been thinking about it! Unless it's something I really want and can't get elsewhere, I really am going to try and stay away from them from now on.

Last year's Rede Lecture at Cambridge by C. P. Snow is now available in a slim, thoughtful, and disturbing volume entitled The Two Cultures and The Scientific Revolution. It runs a mere 58 pages of direct, insistent, pellucid prose and can be read in one hour. Since it takes so little time to courageously tackle two problems vital to scientists, and since it is modestly priced, this unimposing book may well be the greatest literary bargain of an inflated publishing age.
The "two cultures" in the title are the modern culture of the scientific intellectual and the traditional culture of the literary intellectual. With a foot in each cultural camp, C. P. Snow comes uniquely armed to the fray. He states his own qualifications: "by training I was a scientist; by vocation I was a writer." More specifically, Charles Percy Snow, the scientist, won his M. A. in physics in

Alone In The Dark and Wall-E Demos Hit XBLM
Written Monday, August 04, 2008 By Jason Debelyak
Major Nelson revealed today that two brand new demos hit the Xbox Live Marketplace in all regions today:
- Alone in the Dark, the action game from Atari, weighs in at 1.35 GB.
- Wall•E, the game based off of the Pixar mvie, somehow takes up even more space at 1.44 GB.
If either game interests you, they're now available to download, so have at it. However, if we see you playing Wall•E when it's not for achievements, we may just have to laugh at you.

text: ~ Hypersonic Demolition ~ ~ Rehho there guys, my name is Lagalaga, and I am today bringing you another Doubles RMT. Smogon Doubles is my favorite tier at the moment, as has it been for the past 2 months, since I actually don't suck at it ;) This team's name is Hypersonic Demoliton because it consists of 6 offensive pokemon working in Tailwind. This team is by far the best doubles team I have ever made, and peaked at #2 on the Smogondoubles ladder with a win / loss ratio of 20-0 on the alt "Laggerlagger", my personal record so far. Here are some screenshots ~ ~ Screenshots ~ (Move your mouse to reveal the content) ~ Screenshots ~ (open) ~ Screenshots ~ (close) ~ Team Preview ~ ~ Remember that everything in this RMT is subject to change, even the threat list ~ (lol probably mostly the threat list) Changes will be made in ~ Green ~ ~ Teambuilding Process ~ (Move your mouse to reveal the content) ~ Teambuilding Process ~ (open) ~ Teambuilding Process ~ (close) The idea I started from was using a doubles Tailwind team. I once made a different Tailwind team in doubles that wasn't nearly as good. Here is the old team: What I learned from using this team was: 1) Suicune and Breloom are awesome for setting up and working in Tailwind, 2) Landorus-I sucks on a Tailwind team like mine (but try it alongside a Cresselia with Icy Wind, it's pretty good) and 3) either Thundurus sucks or I suck at using Thundurus-I in doubles. So I wanted to make a new team, where the only pokes I kept from the old team was Suicune and Breloom, since they were by far my favorite to use, and the ones that worked best on the old team. So therefore, here is Suicune and Breloom. After that was done, I wanted a strong special attacker with good coverage. Yeah, that would be Genesect. Most Genesects in doubles are scarfed, but since I am running Tailwind, I doubt I would need the extra speed, so I tried out a Life Orb set. I thought it kind of ruined the amazing defensive typing it had, so instead i used Expert Belt, as it's SE coverage is so good. By this time, I felt that another Tailwind setter would be a good idea, and since my first was special, I wanted to try out Salamence. It turned out to work ok. By now I found that my only way of dealing with cresselia was to put it to sleep and constantly chip away at it's health. I also found that my team didn't hit that hard in general except for Genesect. So I then browsed for hard hitters, that had the optimal speed for tailwind (base 70 - 110 imo) and I found non other than Heracross. The standard VGC set is Guts + Status Orb, but since this is Smogon Doubles, where there are more pokemon to kill, I tried a Moxie set. Three physical attackers, and two special attackers, I decided to add a special Nidoking - the Sheer Force + Life Orb set, since I tried it before, and it worked ok in Tailwind. By now I faced 2 problems. 1) I was somehow weak to Dragonspam, especially if it was an opposing Tailwind team and 2) I didn't like the way Salamence worked, as it's STAB move only had mediocre base power, and wasn't super effective against anything. To solve the latter problem, I replaced Salamence with Zapdos as a Tailwind setter. To solve the second problem, I replaced Nidoking with Mamoswine for Dragons. Both these changes turned out to be the key to finetuning the team :3 And now, this is the stage that the team holds at the current moment, and it was this version that brought me to #2 on the ladder :] ~ In-Depth Analysis ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Suicune @ Wacan Berry Trait: Pressure 116 HP / 252 SAtk / 140 Spd Modest Nature - Tailwind - Ice Beam - Hydro Pump - Protect Suicune is the primary Tailwind setter of this team. With it's outstanding bulk, supported by the Wacan Berry weakening strong Electric attacks, It is almost guarenteed to get up a Tailwind, as the only other weakness it has is Grass type moves, which are much more scarce than Electric moves in doubles. When someone sees a Suicune, they usually underestimate it's capabilities of dishing out damage. Hydro Pump does a crapload to unprepared foes, and Ice Beam provides coverage for Dragon types, Grass types and some Flying types. I use this offensive Suicune, because with all the offense my team boasts, a "sitting duck" would just ruin all the momentum. To show the power of the Hydro Pump, here are a few calcs against common pokemon in doubles. ~ Calcs ~ (Move your mouse to reveal the content) ~ Calcs ~ (open) ~ Calcs ~ (close) 252+ SpA Suicune Hydro Pump vs. 252 HP / 0 SpD Hitmontop: 154-183 (50.65 - 60.19%) -- guaranteed 2HKO 252+ SpA Suicune Hydro Pump vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Tyranitar in sand: 222-264 (54.95 - 65.34%) -- guaranteed 2HKO 252+ SpA Suicune Hydro Pump vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Ninetales in sun: 168-198 (58.53 - 68.98%) -- guaranteed 2HKO 252+ SpA Suicune Hydro Pump vs. 252 HP / 0 SpD Metagross: 183-216 (50.27 - 59.34%) -- guaranteed 2HKO 252+ SpA Suicune Hydro Pump vs. 248 HP / 8 SpD Scizor: 199-235 (58.01 - 68.51%) -- guaranteed 2HKO 252+ SpA Suicune Hydro Pump vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Volcarona: 320-380 (102.89 - 122.18%) -- guaranteed OHKO 252+ SpA Suicune Hydro Pump vs. 4 HP / 0 SpD Terrakion: 366-432 (112.96 - 133.33%) -- guaranteed OHKO 252+ SpA Suicune Hydro Pump vs. 4 HP / 0 SpD Heatran: 320-378 (98.76 - 116.66%) -- 93.75% chance to OHKO 252+ SpA Suicune Ice Beam vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Thundurus: 214-252 (71.57 - 84.28%) -- guaranteed 2HKO 252+ SpA Suicune Ice Beam vs. 4 HP / 0 SpD Breloom: 268-316 (102.29 - 120.61%) -- guaranteed OHKO 252+ SpA Suicune Ice Beam vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Latios: 164-194 (54.48 - 64.45%) -- guaranteed 2HKO These calcs show how underestimated Suicune's unboosted attacking prowess can be. Opponents often simply leave in their Heatran / Terrakion / Pokemon 4x weak to ice in and get taken out by this . Overall, the natural bulk level is high, the power of PumpBeam is respectable, and the synergy it has with many of the other pokemon make Suicune a fantastic tribute to this team. I would go as far as to calling it the main glue of this team. ~ Synergy ~ Wacan Berry does allow it to survive an electric hit though ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Breloom @ Fighting Gem Trait: Technician 252 Atk / 252 Spd / 4 HP Jolly Nature - Spore - Mach Punch - Bullet Seed - Protect Next up we have Breloom. Breloom fills another huge role on this team. First of all, Spore is so good in doubles. If something can live any hit you have; meh, just Spore it. It is also very good at doing a lot of damage to a lot of huge threats. Bye bye Whimsicott + Terrakion :^D Anyways, yes, with the fighting gem, it gets to KO a number of huge threats like Terrakion, Hydreigon, all Normal types etc. Basically it does over 50 percent to everything that is weak to it, and to many that are neutral to it as well. Bullet Seed is there for a strong STAB move boosted by Technician, Breloom's fantastic DW ability that it uses so well. Think about it this way = What is Breloom's only let down in singles (OU)? It's mediocre speed. In doubles, an elegant solution has arrived that is much better here than in singles. That solution is known as Tailwind. If you guys ever want to make a Tailwind team, make sure to at least consider Breloom as a part of it, because Breloom in Tailwind not only looks good in paper. It gets the job done. The best counters to Breloom are Flying types or Lati@s. The only thing that can threaten Breloom if I have Suicune out by it's side though, is Tornadus. This is because I can usually Protect on Breloom whilst setting up Tailwind and next turn put the threat to sleep. The problem with Tornadus though, is that it also has Tailwind, and is naturally much faster than Breloom. I do have a Mamoswine, so it doesn't tend to become too much of a problem that often. ~ Synergy ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Genesect @ Expert Belt Trait: Download 4 Atk / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Hasty Nature - U-turn - Flamethrower - Ice Beam - Giga Drain Expert Belt Genesect in Tailwind is an absolute monster. I must admit that I do recall stealing this set from some guy who made an RMT here on smogon. Forgive me, but man this Genesect is so good in Tailwind. The whole idea of using this Genesect is sacrificing Protect for coverage. Grass + Fire + Ice is amazing coverage, and if you play your switches right you can give ALL those moves a STAB boost effectively through Download. The way I like to play with this Genesect is, I only send him in when either 1) Tailwind is up or 2) it outpaces both opposing pokemon. This is because it does not carry protect, meaning that it has to outspeed the foe in order to not get hit for heavy damage. I usually U-Turn out if 1) Tailwind is petering out this turn or 2) It can KO an opposing pokemon (Like Latios) or 3) if the matchup is terrible. A true problem to this Genesect is of course Fire moves, albeit it's only weakness, still is 4x weak. The biggest problems are Chandelure and Heatran, Since none of the moves can do much damage to them. The only reliable switch-in I have to Heat Wave users is Suicune, Though a few other members can take one or 2, depending on the power behind the hit. ~ Synergy ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This pokemon has been changed. Before, it was a Heracross, and the analysis I had + Synergy it used to have is in this "Hide" box: ~ In Memory of Heracross (Move your mouse to reveal the content) ~ In Memory of Heracross (open) ~ In Memory of Heracross (close) Heracross @ Bug Gem Trait: Moxie 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd Jolly Nature - Rock Slide - Close Combat - Megahorn - Protect SO. MUCH. POWER. This little bug hit's everything so hard with it's Megahorn. It is a STAB, Gem-boosted 120 base power move coming off of a 125 base attack pokemon maxed out. That is some powerful stuff. I can sit and brag about this thing's horn all day, but I shall leave that job to these calcs. 252 Atk Bug Gem Heracross Megahorn vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Politoed: 363-427 (94.53 - 111.19%) -- 68.75% chance to OHKO 252 Atk Bug Gem Heracross Megahorn vs. 252 HP / 4 Def Cresselia: 488-576 (109.9 - 129.72%) -- guaranteed OHKO 252 Atk Bug Gem Heracross Megahorn vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Tyranitar: 528-624 (130.69 - 154.45%) -- guaranteed OHKO 252 Atk Bug Gem Heracross Megahorn vs. 4 HP / 0 Def Kingdra: 298-352 (102.05 - 120.54%) -- guaranteed OHKO 252 Atk Bug Gem Heracross Megahorn vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Metagross: 229-270 (62.91 - 74.17%) -- guaranteed 2HKO 252 Atk Bug Gem Heracross Megahorn vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Latias: 626-738 (171.97 - 202.74%) -- guaranteed OHKO 252 Atk Bug Gem Heracross Megahorn vs. 4 HP / 0 Def Venusaur: 334-394 (110.59 - 130.46%) -- guaranteed OHKO And yes, in Tailwind, everything on this list is outsped (except if someone is running Timid Kingdra, which is a shit idea to run) As you can see, this thing hit's hard. But I haven't gotten to the best part yet. If something you can KO is in, you effectively get another Gem boost, this time for all of your moves and no longer one time use. That is the power of Moxie Heracross in Doubles Tailwind. The moves are pretty self explanatory. Megahorn for crazy power, Close Combat for Steel types and not missing, Rock slide for 1) Revenge killing both pokemon at once (which results in a double Moxie boost, usually meaning good game) and 2) Flying types. I usually won't use Rock Slide until one or two Moxie Boosts are up, since it's a pretty weak move unboosted. ~ Synergy ~ Hydreigon @ Life Orb Trait: Levitate 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Modest Nature - Draco Meteor - Dark Pulse - Earth Power - Protect This Hydreigon now fills the spot that Heracross once filled. The suggestion came from Pocket to replace Heracross with this Hydreigon set, so i tested it a bit. It turned out to work excelently; a good deal better than Heracross. First of all, it can take Heat Waves, which was a big problem for my team before. It also is immune to ground, so it works well alongside Mamoswine. But the best thing is, I now have something to hit Dusclops with. Gosh, how annoying that thing could be on a Trick Room team. I used to Spore it first turn and slowly chip away at it's health, but it usually woke up before I could KO it. This problem is now gone, as Hydreigon easily 2HKOs it, even if it has max HP, Max SDef. Overall, even though I miss sweeping entire teams with heracross in Tailwind, Hydreigon fits this team better. The moveset should be pretty self explanatory. Dark Pulse is for spammable STAB, doing a shitton of damage to a lot of things since it's a STAB base 80 move coming from a max SpA+ pokemon with base 125 Special Attack with no drawbacks. Draco Meteor is there to kill everything, but unfortunately at the cost of half of Hydreigon's attacking power until it switches out. Earth Power is to hit Heatran / Metagross / T-Tar and Protect is there to shield itself from hits whilst a team member potentially sets up Tailwind. ~ Synergy ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Zapdos @ Yache Berry Trait: Pressure 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Timid Nature - Heat Wave - Thunderbolt - Protect - Tailwind Zapdos is my second Tailwind setter. It has been the Tailwind setter so far that has worked second best for me (after Suicune). On this team though, it works extremely well, as the whole idea of this team is "kill before you get killed". With it's awesome maxed out base 100 speed combined with it's good natural bulk, it can usually get up Tailwind succesfully. Other than that, it also shows an offensive part through Heat Wave for pesky Steel, Bug and Grass types and damaging both pokes at once, whilst T-Bolt provides a nice STAB option that hit's hard in general. It holds the Yache Berry over Charti Berry because of the fact that many try to Ice Shard it, and Rock Slide, being a spread move, rarely KOs it. I have once tried Electric Gem, which was nice for dishing out harder damage, but surviving a hit is more important when it comes to a pokemon that sets up Tailwind. Zapdos could be considered the team's second glue. ~ Synergy ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mamoswine (M) @ Life Orb Trait: Thick Fat 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd Jolly Nature - Icicle Spear - Ice Shard - Earthquake - Protect Mamoswine's role on this team is to 1) Eliminate Dragon types, 2) OHKO Yache Berry pokes or Dragonite and 3) Provide powerful Earfquakes. This guy works incredibly well with Zapdos, as the moves they wield together hit a lot of the metagame for Super Effective damage. Also, Zapdos is immune to Earthquake, so Mamo can freely spam those. This pokemon works so well in Tailwind for the same reason as Breloom; It has too little speed to be fully optimal outside Tailwind. Mamoswine may seem like an odd one out to some, since I already have so many Ice type attacks, but being able to OHKO dragonite and Yache Berry dragons is priceless, and with a powerful EQ to support it's Ice type attacks, it sure gets the job done :] ~ Synergy ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ Now that I have explained each team member, I shall help you learn what to lead with against what type of teams ~ ~ Rain Teams ~ + This is my best bet against Rain Teams, as both pokemon resist the STAB Water moves. I usually hope to set up Tailwind with Suicune while using Protect with Breloom. This is because Ice Beams are often directed at Breloom first turn to avoid getting put to sleep. From then, I start wrecking damage since Tailwind is now up ;) This lead is also often my standard lead (lead that I pick if I have no idea what to pick) ~ Trick Room ~ + You would think that this team struggles against Trick Room, since I am using Tailwind, which get's completely negated if the opponent uses Trick Room. The thing is though, that if I prevent Trick Room from being set, I can plow through the opposition without wasting a turn setting up Tailwind. Good thing I have Hydreigon + Breloom. Usually what I will do is Spore the Trick Room user while taking a giant shit on the other pokemon with Hydreigon. If the player I am up against is using a Fake Out user + Dusclops, and uses Fake Out on Breloom, then he gets to set up Trick Room though :[ ~ Standard Lead #2 ~ + This is my other "Standard Lead" since they offensively synergize very well with each other. This is also the lead I like to use against Sun teams, since EQ + Heat wave and such. But yeah, same goal; Set up Tailwind so you can start destroying everything :] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ Threat List ~ Heat Wave can be threatening, as I only have one resist, especially Chandelure and Heatran, since they both wall a good deal of my pokemon. Metagross is somewhat of a threat to this team, since not many moves OHKO it, and it hits back really hard. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ And thus ends this RMT. I hope you enjoyed, and I hope you will try out the team, and I also hope that you will come with suggestions to make it better. If you think it was a good read, make sure to leave a Luvdisc, and if you think that the team is shit, please do correct it :^D ~ That's All Folks ~ ~ Importable ~ (If you want to try out this team) (Move your mouse to reveal the content) ~ Importable ~ (If you want to try out this team) (open) ~ Importable ~ (If you want to try out this team) (close) Suicune @ Wacan Berry Trait: Pressure EVs: 116 HP / 252 SAtk / 140 Spd Modest Nature - Protect - Hydro Pump - Ice Beam - Tailwind Breloom @ Fighting Gem Trait: Technician EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd Adamant Nature - Mach Punch - Bullet Seed - Spore - Protect Genesect @ Expert Belt Trait: Download EVs: 4 Atk / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Hasty Nature - Flamethrower - Ice Beam - U-turn - Giga Drain Hydreigon @ Life Orb Trait: Levitate 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Modest Nature - Draco Meteor - Dark Pulse - Earth Power - Protect Zapdos @ Yache Berry Trait: Pressure EVs: 140 HP / 252 SAtk / 116 Spd Modest Nature - Heat Wave - Thunderbolt - Protect - Tailwind Mamoswine (M) @ Life Orb Trait: Thick Fat EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd Jolly Nature - Icicle Spear - Ice Shard - Earthquake - Protect ~ Clearly ~ this ~ RMT ~ needs ~ more ~ tildes ~~~

The production as a whole lacks erotic punch, however, and the production values are rather low even by amateur standards.

I don't know what its called but if my title was too long how would keep it within 1 column without it going into another column like for example
"how are you today good
or sad?"
but i want this
"how are you today go..."
I don't know what its called but if my title was too long how would keep it within 1 column without it going into another column like for example

"how are you today go..."
Here's one way you could do it:
In your template file where you want to implement this (single.php for post pages, index.php for the homepage, etc), find
Every time you find the_title(), replace it with this:
if(strlen($post->post_title)>5){echo substr($post->post_title,0,5).'...';}else{the_title();}
Just replace the 5s with however many letters you want in your titles.
thanks alot, I'm trying to add it for the visual recent post plugin for the titles but it just doesn't seem to work for me...
Alternative suggestion:
the_title as before but just note what markup is being used around it. Might be something like:

<a href="<?php the_permalink();?>" title="<?php the_title();?> - permanent link"><?php the_title();?>

In this example, an
H2with the class
post-title is the info you want.
Next open the
style.css file. At the very bottom of this file, add:
h2.post-title {width:90%;)
That should force longer titles to wordwrap over 2 lines or more and stop then overlapping another column. Saves you cutting some titles off mid-word.
If you're having problems with the precise CSS that you need to add, post your blog url and I'll see if I can come up with a less general solution.
yea but this is a plugin it has its on css and the coding of it so long everytime i try to change it it gives me a error...
Does the plugin have it's own CSS file? If so, you could edit that. If not, then it really depends upon where the CSS is added and how. That in turn determines if/how the post title style can rewritten. A link to your site might help.
if($vrpOptions['post_title_after_image'] == 'false') {
if($vrpOptions['include_post_title'] == 'true') {
echo '

';
echo the_category(' ');
echo '

';
} else {
//echo '

';
thats the code I'm trying to edit, I'm trying to get it to how peter showed me since I only waant 17 characters followed by '...' but I have no idea how to add it in that way. also tried the css method didn't go the way i wanted.
I installed the plugin to figure out how to get this - and the code is all over the place. I didn't take the time to figure out what exactly was going on, but for some reason the_title() is called a lot of times, in a lot of different places (it looks like it does this to handle the various display options you have).
You need to either: Find which code block applies to the display option you're using, and find every instance of the_title() in that block,replacing it with:
if(strlen($post->post_title)>17){echo substr($post->post_title,0,17).'...';}else{the_title();}
or just find every instance of the_title() in the visual-recent-posts.php file and replace them with that.
It definitely works, you just need to make sure tht you get the right instance of the_title().
I know it works but i have to place it in separate echo functions and i only have to place it in the_title once because the the_title for the other ones are for other functions that i don't use. the only thing is I'm not use to using echo...
well i tried to replace it, i get a syntax error maybe its too long for a echo function.. well I'm using the_category(" ") i don't have to change much, right if i finally get it?
peter your code worked but how do i change it to category names that link to the category?

Inch'Allah Dimanche (Arabic: إن شاء الله الأحد, English: Sunday God Willing) is a 2001 French/Algerian movie by Yamina Benguigui about the life of an Algerian immigrant woman in France. Though this is Beguigui's first feature-length fiction film it is largely descriptive of her family's experience moving to France and the struggles for autonomy Algerian women continue to face even today. The film won a variety of international awards, including the 2001 International Critics' Award at the Toronto International Film Festival.[2] Although Benguigui was urged to change the name of the film after the September 11 attacks, she chose to keep the original title, a portion of which is in Algerian Arabic. This film explores the complexities of immigration and the role of women in Algerian society.

Plot synopsis[edit]
Zouina's husband, Ahmed, left Algeria in the 1970s to work in France. As part of the French government's Family Reunification law passed by President Jacques Chirac in 1974, Zouina is allowed to move to France from Algeria in order to join her husband, Ahmed. After tearfully leaving her mother behind, Zouina, her mother-in-law, Aicha, and their three children move to France. Zouina struggles to cope with life in a new country and different culture but becomes a prisoner to the tyranny of Aicha and her husband's failures to protect her. Zouina also encounters a host of neighbors, some of which intensify the alienation she feels in her new home but many who extend their hand in friendship. Sunday, when her Ahmed routinely takes his mother out for the day, Zouina and the children are able to explore and search for other another Algerian family and genuine human contact. Zouina ultimately finds this family after three weeks but suffers a rejection that mirrors being ripped from her home in Algeria and general rejection from her new home in France. Through her journey Zouina gains her own strength, revels in the community of women she finds home in and is comforted by the emerging feminist dialogue she receives through radio talk shows like Ménie Grégoire.
The film contains a variety of French, Algerian Arabic, and Kabyle language music. Many of the tracks are performed by Algerian musician Idir.

Critical response[edit]
Inch'Allah Dimanche received mixed reviews. Rotten Tomatoes gives the film a score of 71% based on reviews from 13 critics, with an average score of 3.6/5. While some audience members found it to be a strong representation of both an assimilation story and a woman's ability to transcend obstacles others found the film to be well meaning but missing the point.
On the films massage and efficacy Don Houston of DVD Talk notes "Immigration affects all of us in one way or another, no matter where you live or work. If this movie can spur some thoughtful discussion on the matter, it will have done us all a great service. I'm not sure if I agree with all the conclusions the director came to but I can appreciate that she walked the walk and now talks the talk to the extent that she could so readily outline many of the issues that impact us all."
Lisa Nesselson of Variety.com praises the film by saying "Narrative is often bittersweet but never dreary. Nicely rendered period design jolts the viewer with reminders that provincial France in the mid-'70s was still closer to WWII than to the present and that today's relatively harmonious multicultural society was hard won indeed."

Copyvio problem and reference cite cleanup[edit]
A large paragraph in the center of the introduction seems to be copyvio from http://www.school-portal.co.uk/GroupHomepage.asp?GroupID=33948 and needs to be re-written.
I've also found references for many parts of the article, though some sections still needed to be tagged {{citeneeded}} for now.
Note that from the tone and structure of the text, I suspect that the section on the school coat of arms is also copyvio.
--Stephane Charette 08:21, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

Could somebody explain to me what's so notable about some prankers panting the school clock tower pink, or one class swapping their study room with another, etc. ? - Mike Rosoft 16:44, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
Because it is a tradition that the final day of Year 13 is called "Leavers' Day". How well each year carries out its pranks, and the audacity to which they are carried out, affects how well remembered each year is. Virtually every 6th form class has had the references to the Great Common Room Switch up on the e-whiteboards at Borlase this week, and it was felt, for that reason, that it had therefore gained the "notable" requirement necessary to be displayed. --Birdie100 12:57, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

Alumni who are not cited as alumni of the school need to be removed from the list or citations need to be provided. under WP:BLP this is mandatory when the alumnus still lives. Obviously it is also advisable when the alumnus is dead. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 12:00, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
- That is the subject of much (as yet unresolved) recent discussion: Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Schools#School alumni edit. Any thoughts you might have would be welcome. Personally, I favour the approach summed up by "every entry added should at minimum have an article, or a reference if it is a redlink to at least provide some support that it might merit an article". As for WP:BLP, the key issue is whether or not this information is "contentious", and if it is, then what aspect of a BLP could not be contentious? Edwardx (talk) 13:06, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
- I've just deleted several names and added a reference for every redlink where a decent article should be possible. Edwardx (talk) 13:53, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
- Done I hope my opinion helps. The offering of such opinions drives, forms and changes consensus. Such discussions may be held within Wikiprojects, but wider consensus on Wikipedia as a whole needs to be the 'standing orders' we work under. Some people will view their attendance at a particular school as contentious. One cannot say what is and is not contentious to another individual, thus citations protect Wikipedia and protect the individual, unless, of course, one is Jimmy Savile when nothing on earth would protect his reputation. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 15:52, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
- Thank you for taking the time to read all of that, and for your helpful commentary. The alumni section for this school was certainly unsatisfactory, and I hope I've removed enough names and added enough references for the redlinked names to make it broadly okay. More work still needed, of course! See my talk page for a more general reply in respect of the issues. Edwardx (talk) 16:30, 5 January 2013 (UTC)

Hi. My name's Krista. I have two kids DD is 4.5 and DS is 2. I just had my first ectopic pregnancy. I got the methotrexate shot on 14th even though the pregnancy was never found on an US. My hCG levels kept going up even a week after the shot and so my dr sent me to surgery last Monday. Ended up removing my left tube and draining a cyst on my right ovary. He said that it had started to rupture when they went in so I'm very thankful that they moved as fast as they did. This was all so unexpected (like anyone plans for an ep...) I'm glad I found this board, its been sorta hard finding a lot of information and I don't know anyone personally who has gone through this.
In a weird way I'm almost thankful that this happened to me. I mean not actually thankful that I had an ectopic pregnancy but DH and I had pretty much decided that it would be illogical to have any more kids. When I found out I was pregnant it made us both realize how much we both really wanted one more. Also before all of this I had been having extreme sciatic nerve pain that no amount of massage and chiropractor adjustments would help. After my surgery and the draining of the cyst that pain is entirely gone. I guess that it was large enough to press on that nerve. Go figure!

Overall Rating for Nova Lathes TR100-1 TOOLREST 100MM 1'' SHANK
This 4" tool rest allows me to get closer to small and odd shaped projects. Allows for adjustments and flexibility. Works well with the outrigger for my Nova DVR lathe.
