First impression was good. Staff pleasant but food wise could be better in terms of breakfast and lunch as we were stuck there for 4 days eating the same food. My room was noisy could be because of the air conditioning
We stayed here from Sunday to Wednesday and enjoyed the experience. Our room on the 29th floor was huge and well appointed. The bathroom had a bathtub too, and there were His and Hers sink areas. The king-sized bed was very comfortable, as was the sofa set in the corner. There was a nexpresso machine, as well as Chinese tea leaves provided. Breakfast was located next to the spa and was a few minutes' walk from the Club tower as it was on the other side of the compound. The food was okay, though service was a little mixed up. I was led to a table and I placed a full glass of fresh orange juice on it while I went to get some food. When I returned, however, the glass was gone and the table was reset with cultery etc. Within the same complex, there is the Soho area of restaurants on the second floor (unfortunately not all the eateries were operating) as well as the DFS duty free shops. The Venetian is about 10 minutes' walk, which was doable. They have a shuttle bus from the Taipa ferry terminal and it only took 10 minutes to get to the hotel, after stops at the City of Dreams and Hard Rock Hotel. They have a return shuttle but you need to take it from the basement of Soho and it only operates from 930 am, in case you have an early ferry to catch. Our room did not have the best view of the Wynn or the Venetian, but we did have a nice view of the airport. There was construction next door but the noise was minimal.
We booked an executive long room with club lounge access. Great large room,amazing bathroom, lovely extra amenities, even provide hair straightener, hair spray, deodorant on request. Execeptional service, specifically manager Dora. Also generous high quality food and alcohol offered at the club lounge. Totally worth the extra cost of staying at club level
Warm water outdoor swimming pool, I can swim all the time even in autumn period. Heated outdoor jacuzzi area just nearby the pool and indoor jacuzzi provided at lady changing room. Comfortable room with large bathroom & living room. Full of room amenties especially variety chargers . Modern design.
I love this hotel and will stay there, even some new hotels are coming up. The services is very professional and up to high standard. The best staff are Celina Kam, Nick Feng and Sara Tang (Grand Hyatt Macau team). Thank you so much.
We had a very nice room over looking the fountain. The check in at the club lounge was fast and easy. The concierge (Randy) really took care of things, including my dinner reservations, show seats and ferry tickets. The restaurants onsite were fabulous. We had the best Peking Duck ever there. The breakfast buffet was quite nice. Happy hour at the lounge was nice. The house keeper did a great job for us during our stay. The room had some trouble with the climate control which maintenance was unable to figure out. A cold breeze continued to blow, finally I took thermostat face off and it shut the fan down.
We had a very nice stay in Grand Hyatt Macao. The hotel generously offered complimentary breakfast for us. And arranged a side-bed for our children. The suite we stayed was very spacious and the gym room was well-equipped. However, the hotel shuttle bus was relatively small and the frequency was low so that we needed to wait for a few to get on. Overall, the hotel's environment was very impressive and tranquil. It's highly recommended.
Stayed here for one night and had access to the grand club. Great experience for the evening cocktail and great services from the hotel . Staffs are nice and helpful. It's my mother's birthday and birthday cake and birthday bun were served . Thanks to Celina and Renee arrangement.
Our family stayed in this Grand Hyatt Macao hotel quite a few times through out many years. For the last few years, we have nothing but good review for this establishment. Excellent customer service, clean and orderly room, good food . It's worth while to pay a bit more to stay on club floor. Both service and food are great.
Now you can enjoy the nice fountain view from the Wyen Palce even if you stay at Hyatt. Hyatt still keep the excellent standard of the foods and service all the time. It's the only hotel which can serve the congee during the Happy Hour, I love it so much.
Cotai Strip is a short stroll from Grand Hyatt Macau, and other popular attractions like Macau Olympic Complex are within a couple of miles (3 km). This 791-room, 5-star hotel welcomes business and leisure travelers with a full-service spa, a casino, and 2 restaurants. Near the airport, it's also near University of Macau and Macau Tower.
Enjoy dining at the hotel's 2 onsite restaurants: Beijing Kitchen specializes in Chinese cuisine, and serves lunch; dinner, or mezza9 Macau offers relaxing pool views. Order from 24-hour room service to satisfy your hunger without leaving your room, or explore the hotel and get a beverage at the bar/lounge or coffee shop/café. Start your day off with breakfast, available for a fee.

Alongside Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, and Willem de Kooning, Robert Motherwell is considered one of the great American Abstract Expressionist painters. His esteemed intellect not only undergirded his gorgeous, expressive paintings—frequently featuring bold black shapes against fields of color—but also made Motherwell one of the leading writers, theorists, and advocates of the New York School. He forged close friendships with the European Surrealists and other intellectuals over his interests in poetry and philosophy, and as such served as a vital link between the pre-war avant-garde in Europe and its post-war counterpart in New York, establishing automatism and psychoanalysis as central concerns of American abstraction. "It's not that the creative act and the critical act are simultaneous," Motherwell said. "It's more like you blurt something out and then analyze it.

Approximately 2 acres of land including the house. There are also grazing rights on the mountain near the house. It is in close proximity to the M4 and there is easy access to public transport at the end of the lane.
Set in a rural location but not too remote due to easy access to main roads and motorway. Panoramic views.
The land features many different trees and plants including a 35 year old walnut tree and mistletoe which is not common in these areas. The property benefits from ample sunlight enjoying both picturesque sunrises and sunsets

I know a lot of "Smallville" fans who were absolutely yearning for this episode since it was announced, especially when they discovered that the legendary Geoff Johns was writing the script. I wasn't quite so enthusiastic. After all, "Smallville" has a spotty history when it comes to incorporating characters from the comic books. The writers often lose sight of one basic requirement: the characterization should not depend on the audience's knowledge of the comic books.
I know next to nothing about the Legion, so I was waiting for the episode to give me enough information to understand who the three heroes were, what their relationships were to each other, and how they fit into the "Smallville" mythos. I'm not sure that was entirely accomplished. By the end, I didn't really know who the heroes were at all.
If anything, I questioned how these three annoying kids in the goofy outfits were supposed to be legendary heroes in their own right. The telepath's costume was a T-shirt with a Saturn symbol on it and a red jacket and leggings. I found it very hard to take them seriously. Apparently Lightning Lad (perhaps the worst name ever) is supposed to be whiny and annoying, and the leader has apparently been listening to too much emo music.
It was easy enough to understand why they were brought into the current plot arc; the characters have the right mix of abilities to save Chloe and take down Brainiac. All things being equal, the problem was how the Legion was characterized. Despite the fact that this was the Legion's first appearance on the series, it felt like I had missed an episode somewhere that explained all the things that weren't worth mentioning in this installment.
The Legion also seemed to be designed to toss in some foreshadowing for both Clark and Lana. It's certainly ominous that they had never heard of Chloe, but I suppose that makes sense in light of the fact that she never appeared in the comics. I'm still not entirely thrilled by Lana's return, but if it serves to establish some kind of importance for the character beyond her connection and relationship with Clark, I'm willing to be patient.
I was a bit worried that they would kill off Chloe, but those fears were thankfully unfounded. I think it would have been interesting for her to be under Brainiac's control a bit longer, though. Allison Mack was having a lot of fun playing up her bad side! I suppose it was all a means to an end, since it took Davis much further down the road to Doomsday, but it still felt a little too quick and easy.
Similarly, the slaughter at the barn is simply glossed over, Chloe's memory of Clark's true nature is restored without much fanfare, and Jimmy's fate is covered off-screen. I expect Clark's decision to alter Chloe's memory will come back to haunt him at some point in the near future, but the rest just feels sloppy. About as sloppy, unfortunately, as the introduction of the Legion. The end result is the first true disappointment of the eighth season.

"India Has Ingenuity"
Clearly visible through the windows of Faqir Chand Kohli's office in Nariman Point, Bombay's financial district, is the graceful sweep of the city's bay and beyond that, the bewildering number of high rises that are rapidly changing the colonial city's skyline. Kohli has occupied the corner office for 30 years as chairman of Tata Consultancy Services, Asia's largest software services outfit. Led by Kohli, the concern pioneered India's phenomenal rise as a power in software outsourcing.
Kohli is in that office even now, four years after he retired. That's because his job as India's pioneering software professional is not over. These days, the solemn, 80-year-old Kohli has a singular obsession: Using his technical expertise to help develop India. Kohli is worried about the Indians who don't have the benefit of education -- especially the country's roughly 250 million illiterate adults. Since retiring, he has helped developed an innovative computer-based functional literacy program for adults.
Kohli spoke with BusinessWeek Correspondent Manjeet Kripalani about the literacy project, Tata, and innovation in India. Following are edited excerpts from their conversation:
Q: How deep is the digital divide in India? A:
Q: How deep is the digital divide in India?
A:I don't think there's really a divide. The question is: Are you using technology for everybody? China has six times the number of computers that India has and has written lots more software in Mandarin and Cantonese for their own people, whereas we have done it for others. China has used computers effectively in manufacturing, in agriculture. This year, China will install 13 million PCs, of which 8 or 9 million they will make themselves. We have just 3 million PCs.
It's not that we're not doing well, but we're not doing enough. We have to have a domestic digital industry and speed up PC use. It's doable to make a sub-$200 PC, but it needs a huge initiative. We need more microelectronic engineers who understand the hardware. They will build embedded software, functionality in devices. You can't build up an industry with just 250 to 300 microelectronic engineers a year.
We have requested the government to select 40 more colleges to provide a master's program in microelectronics. The Indian Institute of Technology in Bombay, which is graduating 60 master's degrees in microelectronics, will provide the coursework, mentoring, and monitoring of the programs.
Hopefully, in the next 12-18 months, we will break the back of the PC problem and have software in all Indian languages. Then the fun starts, when everyone will use it. I don't think it's the vested interests who are preventing this, it's just inertia.
Q: Can India be a source of deep, real innovation? A:
Q: Can India be a source of deep, real innovation?
A:Big companies are geared up for incremental innovation. For us in India, the cost of doing innovative technology is very, very low. The capability of India is its people. We can assemble more good and intelligent people than anywhere in the world. I admire China, but our people are better. India has ingenuity. If an ordinary car mechanic is aided by computers and simulation, his productivity leaps.
Q: Tell me about your computer-aided adult-literacy program. What made you pursue it? A:
Q: Tell me about your computer-aided adult-literacy program. What made you pursue it?
A:[For years,] the Indian government has been spending a lot of money and resources on adult literacy. It has been using conventional methods. While there has been some progress, it's inadequate, considering that about 250 million adults in India are still illiterate. There are constraints: You need 200 hours of instruction for full literacy, and you need trained teachers to teach. If I'm 25 and working in a field or as a housewife, how will I find those 200 hours? As for teachers, we need 500,000 trained teachers to come to 500,000 villages. Where will they come from?
So I started thinking: How can we learn, recognize images, retain, recall. I found that we usually look at images and icons -- pictures, faces, and words are all icons -- and relate it to a sound pattern. Then it sticks. Maybe someone in the world has tried this out, but not in this manner. The key was, when done with the program, the person should be able to read a newspaper in their own language.
It needed a vocabulary of 400-600 words. So, starting in early 2000, three or four of us -- three TCS engineers and a linguist -- prepared a vocabulary of 500 words. And we prepared the lessons in a month or so.
Then we experimented, and the first lesson was in a village called Medak, outside Hyderabad. We upgraded the keyboard in Telegu [the local language]. And we got 20 volunteers for lessons, thrice a week for 1.5 hours each. After 8-to-10 weeks, people started reading the newspaper. Our major experiment was in Guntur, again in the same state. We had the same results.
We have experimented in Hindi, Tamil, Marathi, and Bengali with the same results. Our experiment was complete. We've told the government to take over. We've shown what we can do with a sampling of 50,000 people in five languages.
We have a social message: We want people to not just read the newspaper, but read their land records, the political manifestos -- not just hear speeches during election time. People are reading their children's books now.
Q: Tell me about the birth of Tata Consultancy Services. A:
Q: Tell me about the birth of Tata Consultancy Services.
A:I used to be with Tata Power [one of India's largest private power utilities]. I'm an electrical engineer, I did physics and math at Punjab University, then [obtained] a masters in electrical engineering from MIT. The Tata group did realize the computer was a new technology. On Apr. 1, 1968, TCS was set up to provide computer services.
Earlier, I had been using computers for Tata Power. We at Tata Power were developing the design for a power system and the transmission of energy, etc. We had a digital computer to control the entire power grid, including hydro, thermal, and nuclear energy. That's why you don't get any power blackouts or shutdowns in Bombay city, which is powered by us.
Then I was drafted to TCS for a year to build it. We didn't have any outsourced work then. For years, we did work only in India, helping local banks get [computerized] interbranch reconciliations. And we computerized the telephone directory of Bombay in 1972.
For our business to be successful, we needed bright people -- plentiful in India. And we needed to learn about technology. But technology was only available in the West so we had to go there. In those days, I had became the director of Institute of Electrical Engineers and Electronic Engineers in New York, and it took me to New York three or four times a year.
I used the time in those two years to build up contacts in the U.S. One was with the Burroughs Computers, the No. 2 computer company in the U.S. then. They bought our services for their B1700 new series of computers -- they wanted us to develop for them a health-care system to sell to their clients along with the computer. But we had a formidable challenge: We didn't have a Burroughs machine in India.
So we wrote the whole software for that on an International Computers machine, with an automatic filter which would filter the ICL-written software for the Burroughs machine. That filter was of a very high order of software engineering. Burroughs used that filter next year to replace the ICL machines for their U.K. clients with Burroughs machines. Then TCS was in business. Each time Burroughs changed to their computers, they used us.
The fight in the first 10 years was not with foreign competitors but with the government. The government and others had a negative mindset about computers. We had high tariffs and tough unions. It took us three years to get [the approval to import] a large Burroughs computer for New Dehli. By the time we got permission for it, the computer we asked for was already obsolete. But finally the government appreciated the need for the latest technology, and we got the next-generation computer.
Q: What inspires you? Who inspired you? A:
Q: What inspires you? Who inspired you?
A:I'm inspired by our people. I like to encourage people. My father was a businessman, had a department store in Peshawar. My mother studied till the 8th grade and read the newspaper every day till she died at 75. I always admired her for it. We moved to Lucknow after the partition of India and Pakistan. My eldest brother didn't go to college because he had to run the business, but he was self-taught. He loved Dickens and autobiographies -- which I read, too. And he encouraged me.
Q: If you look out into the future, what do you see for India? A:
Q: If you look out into the future, what do you see for India?
A:We have the best human capital. We have more than our fair share of intelligent, hard-working people, great raw material and assets. We have to learn how to use it.
Q: What's next on your agenda? A:
Q: What's next on your agenda?
A:We're now experimenting with the public school system, creating teacher aids, and computerizing the extra coaching classes that all teachers here give. Students will pay money for the coaching program and see the teacher once a week to complete it. And from 8th grade on, everyone must get some vocational training -- it's not necessary for everyone to go to college. There are solutions [for everything], but we have to work on them.

I am conducting a research project at QUT to establish the utility of an Autism Specific Parent Questionnaire (Autistic Behavioural Indicators Instrument – Parent Questionnaire ABII-PQ) in detecting young children with either typical development or a diagnosis of Autism.
You are invited to participate in an anonymous online survey about your child's development.
I am looking for parents with children aged between 2 and 12 years whose children have either 1) typical development 2) diagnosis of Autism or 3) concerns about their child's development.
The anonymous online survey can be found at:
You can copy and past this link in your internet browser.
Thank you for your consideration of taking the 5 minutes to complete this survey.
It is hoped this research will have long-term benefits for children with Autism and their families because the results may facilitate earlier identification and diagnosis, and consequently result in earlier entry into appropriate intervention programs.
Thank you
Samantha Ward

Paul Babeu Claims He Made "No Conclusions" in Case of Bodies Found in Vekol Valley
Of course, embattled Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu's not apologizing for labeling the likely murder-suicide involving a family of five as the work of a "violent drug cartel."
In fact, Babeu's now saying he gave "no conclusions" about the case, and is blaming everyone else for being on "their high horse."
For anyone who's been following the saga of Babeu's apparent truth-avoidance syndrome, this isn't at all surprising.
As we wrote earlier, the five charred, still-unidentified bodies were found in an SUV in the Vekol Valley this weekend, and Babeu tried to score political points out of it.

"Thanks to all our Homicide detectives who are investigating this alarming 5 person murder and the torching of the vehicle (likely in an effort to destroy evidence)," Babeu typed up on Facebook. "All information is pointing that this is connected to the violent drug cartel smuggling in this high smuggling area."
In that same post, he took to gloating. "The border is NOT more secure than ever Ms. Napolitano!" he wrote.
Tempe Police Sergeant Jeffrey Glover said yesterday that there's no evidence the Butwins were involved with drugs, cartels, "or anything like that," and Tempe police are investigating the case as a murder/suicide.
Babeu spoke to the Associated Press today about his comments, and he didn't apologize, nor did he reverse his stance.
He justified what he said, and blamed others for making him say things.
"When you're not being transparent and giving information, then everyone stands on their high horse," he told the AP. "There were no conclusions given ... There was no pronouncement."
This would appear to be the same Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu who told KPHO this weekend, "It doesn't appear to be suicide or something like that where you hear of some crazy events."
Naturally, Babeu's comments on Facebook led his sheep to their intellectual slaughter.

One of the most impressive looking models was the GT660, a Core i7 system which featured a GeForce GTX 285 GPU. Those are two significantly impressive components for a 15" system but they were not the unique selling point for the machine… the aspect which made that system stand out was the use of speakers which were designed by Dynaudio, a major player in the professional audio market. With this new system MSI were looking to maximise the audio performance of the system and in the process make it gaming and media powerhouse. Nothing stands still in the technology world though and this meant that a refresh of the GT660 was required; today we have that system on our test bench.

Finding And Fitting Bras For Men
Size Your Bra
First, measure across your chest, under the region where your breasts would be. Then take a measurement across the largest part of your chest. The difference between these two measurements is your cup size. A half inch difference is a AA cup, a whole inch is an A cup, two inches is a B cup, and so on and so forth.
To get the band measurement, simply measure under your chest where the band will sit. (If you get an odd number, just round it up to the nearest whole number, ie, from 33 to 34.)
This is just a general guide, depending on your particular body shape, you may need to go up or down a size in either measurement. To make things even more fun, bra manufacturers seem to peversely enjoy making bras in their own special sizes, therefore, a 40A in one brand may be equivalent to a 42 AA in another.
Whether you wear a bra because you like the look, or the feel, or because you have to due to your body shape, there's a bra out there for every man. If you need help on sizing your bra, there is a quick guide to the right which should help you on your way.
Stealth Bras
Want to keep your bra wearing under wraps? Seamless bras, also known as T Shirt bras, are the prime type of bras for stealth bra activity. These bras are also excellent for men who have to wear bras due to medical conditions, as well as men who simply want to wear bras They are specially designed without the visible seams and lace which adorn many bras, so they can be worn under t shirts and shirts.
If you want to make sure that your bra is not seen, wearing one that matches the color of your shirt is essential. This sounds like an obvious statement, but even women occasionally make the faux pas of wearing a black bra under a white shirt.
Flamboyant Bras
Don't want to hide it? Then there is a whole world of exciting lingerie out there for you. Lace bras, mesh bras, open cup bras, demi cup bras, the lingerie world is your oyster. Because your choice will be largely dictated by personal preference and your own tastes, it's impossible to write an article that tells each and every man what he should wear, but here are some tips for picking a stunning bra.
Match Your Eyes - If you happen to have nice blue or green eyes, you'd be surprised how good a bra of a similar shade will look. Complimentary colors will also make your eyes stand out, which will make you look even hotter in that bra.
Skin Contrast - If you happen to be pale, staying away from light colors is a good idea. White lace on white skin, especially skin that never sees the sun, makes for a fairly pasty appearance. Black, on the other hand, provides a stunning contrast. If you are darker skinned, whites and other bright colors are great choices, the brighter the better in fact. Light skinned people tend to look better in rich colors, deep reds and and rich blues.
Of course, for every rule, there is an exception, so don't feel hemmed in by any of these tips, wearing lingerie is about expressing yourself, so make your own rules, and then break them if you want to.
Vive la revolution lingerie!

"CAJAMARCA : SIGNIFICANT HISTORICAL TOWN" Peru Things to Do Tip by swesn
Peru Things to Do: 659 reviews and 852 photos
Cajamarca is an attractive colonial town in the north of Peru, surrounded by pretty mountains and countryside.
What marks Cajamarca apart from all the other run-of-the-mill colonial towns of Peru is its place in history. In 1532, the 2 Incas royal brothers Atahualpa and Huascar had fought a battle for the Inca's throne. Atahualpa beat his brother who was left in Quito (in Ecuador). He was returning to Cusco when he stopped at Cajamarca.
At that time, Francisco Pizarro and his 168 soldiers who had been marching for weeks, met Atahualpa there. The Spanish priests duly delivered the "Requirement" which was basically a document that Spanish conquistadores read to the native population before attacking them, giving them a brief history of the world, skewed towards the rise of Christianity, and demanded that the natives accept the King of Spain as their supreme ruler blahblahblah...
Naturally, 'no habla espanol' Atahualpa refused and Pizarro had him captured, and wholesale massacred several thousands of innocent Inca bystanders and soldiers for good measure.
Captured, Atahualpa offered them a ransom for his freedom - a room filled with gold and silver. The Spanish gleefully accepted the offer, but murdered Atahualpa after collecting the treasures.
In Cajamarca's city tour, a room, known as El Cuarto del Rescate, or "The Ransom Room" can be viewed. This was Atahualpa's cell, not the ransom room. There is a red mark on the wall, said to be drawn by Atahualpa, indicating how much the room would be filled up with treasure.

Cascading Ruffles Pillow

Click here to view your Craft Projects.
Using pillow case pattern ideas like this cascading ruffles pillow from Victoria Lavertu, you can turn scraps into a girly, trendy home accent. These pillows look great in the living room or in the bedroom.
- A pillow form (or old pillow)
- An old sheet or any other fabric you like
- Sewing machine
- Coordinating thread
- First of all, you want to measure your pillow form. Length and width and cut a piece of fabric that will wrap around the pillow.
- The seams will overlap in the back like this, so make sure you left room for your seam allowance.
- Take some more fabric and make 3" strips at whatever length you can get. I just did a bunch because I wasn`t sure how much I`d need. The easiest way to do this is cut at the 3 inch mark and tear along your fabric. The edges will be raw anyways and it`ll be as precise as you need it. Also, this is assuming you`re using 100% cotton material.
- Now adjust your sewing machine to the highest tension and the longest stitch. Sew along the center of your strips. If your fabric doesn`t ruffle itself, than don`t backstitch at your ends and then you can manually ruffle it by pulling on your bottom threads.
- Go back to your pillow base fabric piece and hem your short ends. You can serge and hem, or do what I did and double fold and press then hem. And sew your hem like so.
- Now wrap the fabric around your pillow again and mark out the face of the pillow so you know where to put your ruffles. I marked the top and bottom.
- Now you can start pinning your strips going up and down your pillow. Here it is all pinned in place, ready to be sewn.
- Sew along the center of the strips where you have sewn for the ruffling. Sew down each strip, backstitching at the beginning and end of each line.
- With your ruffles on the inside, fold over the ends, overlapping your ends slightly. Pin your edges together.
- While you`re pinning, be sure to tuck in the ruffles so you`re not sewing over them.
- Once you`ve sewn the edges, you can serge or zigzag the ends so they don`t fray.
- Turn right side out and stuff in your pillow.

Australia leader says tough gun laws to be tightened further
By Rod McGuirk, Australia, AP October 20, 2016, 12:18 am TWN
CANBERRA--Australia's tough gun controls will be further tightened to restrict access to new rapid-fire shotguns, the prime minister said Wednesday.
But a pro-gun independent senator warned Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull that the move will add to the government's difficulty in getting legislation through the Senate.
Turnbull was commenting on the fate of the Adler A110 shotgun, a Turkish-manufactured lever-action weapon that was banned from importation last year as an Australian gun dealer was taking orders to sell hundreds.
The Adler can fire eight shots as fast as pump-action shot guns, which are a highly restricted category of rapid-fire gun under national regulations designed to limit the risk of mass shootings.
Currently, lever-action guns have been listed in the least restrictive gun category since firearm laws were overhauled 20 years ago in response to a lone gunman killing 35 people in Tasmania state.
Gun-control advocates see that as a legal loophole that became widely known only through the advertising surrounding the Adler.
Turnbull told Parliament that the Adler ban would remain until state governments agreed on how such shotguns should be reclassified.
"We are not prepared to see those guns imported into Australia under the current classification which they have," Turnbull said.
Independent Senator David Leyonhjelm accused the government of reneging on a deal with him to lift the import ban by Aug. 7.
Leyonhjelm, who argues gun laws have rendered Australians "disarmed victims," said he agreed to support government legislation in the Senate last year in return for the government limiting the Adler ban to 12 months.
But instead of allowing the 12-month ban to expire, the government extended it while the states discuss how to treat the Adler.
"We had a deal, they didn't stick to the deal, so how can I deal with them in the future?" Leyonhjelm told reporters Tuesday.
July elections left Turnbull's conservative coalition government with a reduced minority in the Senate and more reliant on pro-gun, anti-establishment senators such as Leyonhjelm to get its legislative agenda passed.
The Adler ban applies to all lever-action shotguns with a magazine capacity larger than five cartridges.

On Tuesday, more than 700 public transportation leaders gathered in Washington, D.C., to urge Congress to move forward quickly on federal legislation that will invest in public transportation to support and create jobs.
"First on the agenda is the passage of the HIRE Act in the Senate this week," said American Public Transportation Association (APTA) President William Millar, who welcomed the U.S. public transit leaders. "The HIRE Act will do two things: release the funding for public transportation in the 2010 appropriations bill and extend the deadline for the federal surface transportation legislation until December 31, 2010."
Since the last federal surface transportation act expired last fall, Congress has been granting short-term extensions. The current extension is scheduled to expire March 28.
Public transportation leaders are also calling on their congressional leaders to pass another economic stimulus jobs bill this year that invests in public transportation and includes flexibility for operating funding for public transit systems. This legislation is urgently needed, not only to maintain public transit service, but to avoid the loss of American jobs. For every $1 billion invested in public transportation capital and operations, 36,000 jobs are created.
"Public transportation riders across the country are paying higher fares and seeing their services reduced or eliminated because of this severe economic recession," said J. Barry Barker, APTA vice chair, government affairs, and executive director, Transit Authority of River City in Kentucky. "For the tens of millions of Americans who ride public transportation and for the millions of Americans who are seeking employment, we need Congress to act quickly to pass legislation that invests in public transportation."
While the HIRE Act and another jobs bill are much needed stop-gap measures, APTA is calling on Congress to approve a robust, multi-year bill so that public transportation systems can plan for the future. APTA is calling for $123 billion in investment over six years for public transportation to double ridership in 20 years, and $50 billion for high-speed rail.
"Although the short-term measures are welcomed and very helpful, they are not a substitute for a new, long-term, transportation legislation that will create and support good "green" jobs and build a world-class, 21st century, multi-modal transportation system," said Millar. "The longer we wait for a new multi-year transportation bill, the less public transit systems and public transit businesses can support and create American jobs. Passing a long-term transportation authorization bill will be the best thing for public transportation and will also help our country's economic recovery."
The county would pick up $15 of the tab. With most paratransit rides five miles or fewer, county officials believe $15 likely would cover the entire bill.
Beginning July 1, 2017, the consolidation of two existing contracts will result in one service provider that operates the service, accepts customer calls, verifies customer eligibility, schedules requested trips, and maintains vehicles.
When Chris Pangilinan was a little kid, riding in the backseat of his family's station wagon, the red stoplights annoyed him. "I would think, Why is this so inefficient? Why do we have to stop all the time?" he recalls...
The approved partnership between Dial-a-Ride contractor MV Transportation and their subcontractor Discount Cab provides overflow service during the regular service day.
Access-A-Ride cost $85.2 million and carried 1.7 million rides in 2000, increasing to an estimated $506 million this year for more than 6.3 million trips.

Star Wars (1977)
A Great Movie
13 November 2004 - 1 out of 1 users found this review helpful.
I can still remember sitting in the theatre at 4 years old watching this movie with my Dad. The movie is great overall, but perhaps one of the best scenes in all of cinema is the great Battle at Yavin where the struggling rebellion destroys the evil Death Star. Luke Skywalker came to be a childhood hero for me. The magnificent score by John Williams only hightens it's brilliance.
This movie for me is the best of the trilogy and I'm sure will stand the test of time as with all great movies. You might say I'm somewhat partial to this movie being from the bay area near to where George Lucas directed some of the movie so I can appreciate his direction and his style of directing.
I give this movie a 9/10.

Sting and the Royal Philharmonic Come to Cruzan
Some claim that since jettisoning the Police, Sting's music has lost its, well, sting. After all, here's an artist on the front lines of the new-wave rebellion in the late '70s who gradually acquiesced to a mellower template comfortably nestled in adult contemporary.
Like Elvis Costello, another seasoned survivor of that age of insurgency, Sting successfully reinvented himself and expanded his ambitions in the process. When Costello embraced Americana and teamed with Burt Bacharach and Allen Toussaint, Sting roamed alone, freely cherry-picking from jazz, folk, classical, and even vintage music-hall tradition to extend his reach. The news that he's playing with a symphony orchestra may concern those stuck on the former Gordon Sumner's earlier efforts, but the fact that he's now an elder statesman of sorts suggests these sophisticated trappings may suit him well.
Besides, the members of the Royal Philharmonic can hardly be termed slouches, so credit him for going to the expense of bringing them in tow and keeping the ticket prices relatively modest. More important, the billing promises to deliver "his most celebrated songs," so even though it doesn't offer the luster of another Police reunion, it will hopefully be an arresting performance.
Sting, with the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra 8 p.m. Friday, July 2, at Cruzan Amphitheatre, 601-7 Sansbury's Way, West Palm Beach. Tickets cost $57 to $157. Call 800-745-3000, or click here.

What the hell was going on there? One of the most shocking Instagram pictures was shared during the celebration of Lawrence's birthday which she spent with Kardashians!
What the hell was going on there? One of the most shocking Instagram pictures was shared during the celebration of Lawrence's birthday which she spent with Kardashians!
Later the 59-year-old Keeping Up With the Kardashians star explained that the photo was taken by her boyfriend Corey Gamble on August 22, when the celebration of Jennifer Lawrence birthday took place. Talking about the Hunger Games star's 25th birthday, it actually was on August 15.
The famous reality show mommy captioned the Instagram pic with the words:
Happy Birthday you piece of shit… God I love you #Jenniferlawrence thanks for making this night a night to remember…..even if we did get caught… I love you Happy Birthday Gorgeous!!! #Bible #momager #doll. Photo cred @coreygamble
Just look at it..
How the hell it happened???
It became a huge surprise to everyone that those people are actually hanging out together, not talking about celebrating Lawrence's birthday..
However, it could be simply explained as Jennifer Lawrence has always been a TV fan, but nobody knew her addiction was THAT huge!
Kim Kardashian once even said that when she occasionally bumped into Lawrence the Hunger Games actress screamed of amusement! The 34-year Kim narrated:
I was in NYC and I ran into Jennifer Lawrence. We said, 'Hi' and walked into the elevator and as the doors were closing. She screamed across the lobby, 'I love your show!' We were laughing so hard.
So the whole situation becomes much clearer, but still…How Jennifer Lawrence appeared cuddling with Kris Jenner in bed? That remains a real mystery…

Experimenting with Humans and Animals by Anita Guerrini
Book DescriptionExperimentation on animals and particularly humans is often assumed to be a uniquely modern phenomenon. But the ideas and attitudes that encourage the biological and medical sciences to experiment on living creatures date from the earliest expression of Western thought. In Animal and Human Experimentation, Anita Guerrini looks at the history of these practices from vivisection in ancient Alexandria to present-day battles over animal rights and medical research employing human subjects. Guerrini discusses in-depth key historical episodes in the use of living beings in science and medicine, including the discovery of blood circulation, the development of smallpox and polio vaccines, and recent AIDS research. She also explores the rise of the antivivisection movement in Victorian England, the modern animal rights movement, and current debates over gene therapy. In this highly accessible text, we learn how our understanding of an animal's capacity to feel pain has evolved. Guerrini reminds us that the ethical values of science seldom stray far from those of the society in which scientists live and work. Ethical questions about the use of animals and humans in research remain among the most vexing within both the scientific community and society at large. These often rancorous arguments have gone on, however, with little awareness of their historical antecedents. Animal and Human Experimentation offers students and concerned general readers on every side of this debate a context within which to understand more fully the responsibility we all bear for the suffering inflicted on other living beings in the name of scientific knowledge.

Secrets of Scull and Bones
Charlotte Iserbyt breaks down the history of this secret order and reveals just how big this elite club at yale really is and how much political power they have wield over the past 180 years! Thompson Iserbyt served as the head of policy at the Department of Education during the first administration of Ronald Reagan. While working there she discovered a long term strategic plan by the tax exempt foundations to transform America from a nation of rugged individualists and problem solvers to a country of servile, brainwashed minions who simply regurgitate whatever they're told. This 74 minute exposé is a must see for anyone who wants to truly know why the education system is deliberately crafted to produce human drones with no critical thinking whose only skills are to be subservient, trust authority and follow orders.
