If you're a "self-builder" - the sort of person who knows that you can reclaim the VAT on the cheap, high- quality DIY goods available on the other side of the Channel - it's likely to be the latter. Even so, self- builders are likely to spend this weekend in Birmingham rather than Boulogne, perusing the displays at the NEC's "Homebuilding & Renovating" show (sponsored by the magazine of the same name).
A self-builder's preoccupations are little different from that of any owner who likes to put up the odd shelf - though perhaps on a larger scale. They need to know all the ropes. A self-builder not only erects the walls of their kitchen and bathroom, but they also kit them out, so their normal research involves a wide range of plumbing and sanitaryware, tiles and flooring, medicine cabinets and towel racks. A self-builder's floor will have been selected from multifarious wood and stone options - not to mention the mind-boggling array of underfloor heating systems.
Michael Holmes, the editor of Homebuilding & Renovating, notes that most self-builders first renovate a derelict structure and then progress to a full-scale building project. In building his own house in Oxfordshire, he first had to reconcile conflicting visions: "My dream was all mod cons: new heating, ventilation and plumbing; my wife's was a traditional Cotswolds- style cottage. But they are not mutually exclusive. Our house is a hybrid."
A savvy architect helped the reconciliation process, and in November they moved into the house, which cost pounds 280,000 to build (pounds 90,000 was for the land alone), and which Michael estimates now to be worth more than pounds 450,000.
These savings do not reflect the several near-nervous breakdowns that seem to accompany all self-build projects, but Michael shrugs such difficulties off: "Nothing is ever quite as bad as it looks at first. The next day it is solved, and a new challenge is on its way. Bad moments fade, pleasures remain."
The more work you do yourself, the more money you save, but the more hassle you take on. His advice is: "Spend money on design. Competent builders can follow architectural plans, and common sense and building control officers will carry you the rest of the way. The key is, never pay up front, and only pay for work you are satisfied with."
A good dose of common sense is also vital, as self-builder Margaret Brown discovered. Her builders had no problem following the drawings - but the drawings were flawed, and although the builders had inklings that something was wrong, they carried on. Margaret realised they were worried and, after a bit of probing and prodding, they finally confessed their uneasiness: "In fact, they were building a wall that was incorrectly positioned. We had to take the floor up and reposition the wall, and now I have a small alcove I otherwise wouldn't have. But it adds character."
In contrast to the Holmeses, who lived in a flat until their new home was ready, Margaret lived on site, in a caravan without heating or water: "I was always tripping over things. There was no storage area for the day-to-day things you take for granted. In the shower, water drips off the ceiling; and you stick to the toilet seat. It is not for the faint- hearted."
She, too, experienced problem after problem: "All self-builders tell you the same - things don't go to plan, and you change your mind about certain things as you see the property rising. And everything takes longer than you thought.
With experience, self-builders become stoical: "Don't get uptight, take everything in your stride," Margaret advises. They also become addicts. If it came to it, she would self-build all over again rather than move into an already built home. Michael Holmes, too, is already warming to the idea of selling for a nice quick profit and building anew to reduce his mortgage.
The scarcity of land is a major barrier, but derelict homes ripe for stripping and rebuilding are about. "Find something boarded up and derelict, buy it, gut it, and start from scratch. Or buy a flat with a potential for adding a storey or basement or a mansard roof. Look for potential extra space. It will always pay," he suggests.
Here's one final tip: most self-builds end with a celebratory bottle of bubbly. Which, of course, you can pick up cheap in Calais - along with the kitchen sink.
The NEC Homebuilding & Renovating Show features some 150 exhibitors, expert seminars, master classes, and one-to-one specialist surgeries. `Independent' readers can get half-price entry (pounds 3.50 instead of pounds 7) for two adults to the Homebuilding & Renovating Show by taking a copy of the paper to the box office, Saturday and Sunday, 10am to 5pm

Thought for the Day - Michael Banner
Good morning.
You may have seen a report that scientists have discovered five more genes associated with Alzheimer's - genes which control certain processes in the body, and so provide targets for treatment. If the effect of these genes could be eliminated, there is a prospect of reducing the incidence of the disease – which as just about everyone knows first-hand from relatives, friends or acquaintances, is a devastating condition, affecting a growing number of people.
The dedication, ingenuity and success of those who are making advances in the basic understanding of the disease, is, of course, good news – but it still leaves all of us with a fundamental challenge. Only some have the opportunity or abilities to work at the frontiers of the medical sciences where treatments for the disease will be discovered. But barring what is not to be expected any time soon, namely a complete eradication of this disease overnight, most of us will have the opportunity, if that is the right word, to work at another frontier. Where there is no effective treatment for the disease, the challenge is to treat humanely those with it; and here, no less than in the laboratory, ingenuity, imagination and dedication are called for.
A colleague said to me recently that his mother, who had been suffering from dementia, and who had died a few weeks before, had in fact died a long time ago. What he meant was clear enough – the woman he had known all his life, with her characteristic personality, seemed to have gone some years before she died. She was no longer the person she had been - which is why Alzheimer's is referred to as 'death before death', the 'death of the person', a 'living death' – and so on. People with Alzheimer's can seem to fade away before our very eyes.
The world has always had invisible people – in Jesus's day they were widows, lepers, the poor and the outcast. And in the stories told about Jesus, he seems to have an uncanny eye for those who might otherwise be overlooked and excluded from community. When people talk about the 'death of the person', such ways of speaking are not to be discounted – they plainly express a profound sense of losing someone as they succumb to dementia. But this manner of speaking ought not to be accepted without question. Apart from anything else, the imagery is in danger of discouraging us from caring for the demented before we have even started, since if we take it literally, there is no one there to care for. But as our cognitive capacities fail, the people we once were may still be there, perhaps in fragments. I may forget who I am, or who you are, but finding and sustaining what remains of the person in their diminished state is surely the task and challenge which confronts us.
All power to those who live and work on the frontiers of medical science and seek to eliminate the causes of dementia – but all power too, to those who live on the frontiers of our humanity, and who seek to find and sustain and remain in community with those whom dementia is in danger of rendering invisible.

UFC eras will clash in Mir vs. Dos Santos
LAS VEGAS – Junior Dos Santos has the chance to slam the door on a generation.
Literally more than a ton of mixed martial artists will enter the cage at the Ultimate Fighting Championship's show Saturday in an unprecedented all-heavyweight main card (10 p.m. ET, pay-per-view) at the MGM Grand Garden Arena to sort out a pecking order for a division that has had 15 men win some sort of UFC heavyweight title belt since 1997.
Three of those fighters will compete this weekend at UFC 146, including current titleholder Dos Santos against two-time champion Frank Mir in the headline bout.
BLOG: UFC 146 live play-by-play
MORE: Antonio Silva relishes shot on biggest stage
MORE: Shane Del Rosario puts lost year behind him
Dos Santos is one of seven heavyweights on the card who hadn't started fighting professionally when Mir won his first title in 2004.
Torturous heavyweight history
Since the UFC's inception in 1997, its heavyweight title belt has been a hot potato, as no one holds on to it for long. Champions and the dates they won the title:
Mark Coleman (February 1997)
Maurice Smith (July 1997)
Randy Couture (December 1997)
Bas Rutten (May 1999)
Kevin Randleman (November 1999)
Randy Couture (November 2000)
Josh Barnett (March 2002)
Ricco Rodriguez (September 2002)
Tim Sylvia (February 2003)
Andrei Arlovski (February 2005)
Tim Sylvia (April 2006)
Randy Couture (March 2007)
Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira (February 2008)
Brock Lesnar (November 2008)
Frank Mir (December 2008)
Shane Carwin (March 2010)
Cain Velasquez (October 2010)
Junior Dos Santos (November 2011)
-- Couture never defended his first title belt because he briefly left the company after a contract dispute.
-- Barnett never defended his title because it was stripped from him after he tested positive for a steroid. Sylvia's first title reign ended after one title defense when he tested positive for a steroid.
-- Mir's first championship stint ended without a title defense after the belt was stripped from him while he was rehabbing from a motorcycle crash.
-- UFC three times has had two heavyweight champions at the same time. Arlovski won an interim belt while Mir was rehabbing; UFC later promoted Arlovski as its regular titleholder when it became evident Mir could not return quickly.
-- Nogueira won his interim title while Couture again tried to leave UFC in another contract squabble. Couture eventually lost the regular title to Lesnar, and Nogueira lost the interim belt to Mir. The belts were unified when Lesnar defeated Mir in 2009.
-- The final interim reign occurred when Carwin beat Mir while Lesnar recovered from intestinal diverticulitis. Lesnar beat Carwin to bring the titles together again.
By Sergio Non
If he beats Mir, Dos Santos would turn away the challenge of the last elite fighter standing from the UFC's struggling years.
With more than a decade of professional experience, Mir, 32, has outlasted his contemporaries from the early 2000s, most of whom have retired or no longer fight for UFC or its sibling promotion, Strikeforce. The only other ex-champ of that era still competing at a high level, Josh Barnett, lost in Strikeforce last weekend to upstart Daniel Cormier.
A win for Dos Santos also would put him in rare company. Of the five previous heavyweight beltholders, one — Brock Lesnar — successfully defended the title after winning it.
Compared to smaller fighters, heavyweights have a harder time winning consistently at the elite level because almost every good big man has knockout power, Mir says.
"In our division, pretty much if anyone in the top 10 lands a great punch on the chin of anybody else in the top 10, they're going to go down," Mir says. "In the heavyweight division, there is no recovery from mistakes. Sometimes it's the first screw-up and you're done."
Few MMA fighters know that better than Mir, who put away most of his victims with submissions or knockouts. Decisions account for four of his 17 victories.
"When he sees an opening or a weakness in somebody's position, he can explode right into the position he needs to be in to get into leglocks, the armlocks," Dos Santos says. "Sometimes he looks a little bit tired or he looks a little bit worn down, and it's almost like he's doing that to take you off guard so that you let your guard down."
By Gary A. Vasquez, US Presswire
Current champion Junior Dos Santos is undefeated in eight UFC fights, thanks to his hand speed, takedown defense and striking power.
But on paper, Dos Santos has the tools to smash Mir. Undefeated in eight UFC fights, the champion has youth, hand speed, almost impregnable takedown defense and striking power — six of his UFC opponents suffered knockouts or quit after being repeatedly punched.
As long as Saturday's fight stays standing, Dos Santos says his boxing will give him a sizable advantage. "I'm faster than him," Dos Santos says. "I hit harder than him, and I'm better technically."
The champion also thinks Mir will crumple under pressure.
"Mir doesn't really know how to get through rough spots in a bout," Dos Santos says. "When he gets in those rough spots, his courage goes out the window; his aggression goes out the window."
Dos Santos isn't the first person to levy the accusation. UFC President Dana White once likened Mir to Dr. Seuss' infamous Christmas curmudgeon.
"If Frank Mir can't bully you, his heart shrinks to the size of the Grinch's," White said after a lackluster performance by Mir in September 2010. "If he can't take you down, his heart shrinks to the size of a pea."
Yet Mir won that bout 21 months ago by knocking popular kickboxer Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic unconscious, something Dos Santos did not do a year earlier against the same fighter.
Mir also has beaten other fighters at their own game.
He is the only man in MMA to outwrestle rotund grappler Roy "Big Country" Nelson and control him on the ground for long stretches.
Mir knocked down striker Cheick Kongo with one punch to set up a submission on the ground.
He's the first man to knock out two-time champion and Dos Santos mentor Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira, who was previously known for an iron chin. In their rematch in December, Mir became the only man to submit him.
The second fight suggested Mir can overcome difficult moments. In the first round Nogueira landed a blow that put Mir on rubber legs and left him vulnerable to a flurry of punches. But Nogueira erred by following his jiujitsu instincts to attempt a submission rather than continuing with strikes.
Within seconds, Mir won a quick battle of positions to turn the tables and snap the bone in Nogueira's right upper arm after cinching a shoulderlock.
Dos Santos dismisses the second Nogueira bout as an exception.
"What happened against Nogueira in his last fight was really an anomaly, because Mir got caught standing up," Dos Santos says. "He was ready to go down, ready to go out. He was able to get through that and come back. That never happens in Mir's fights."
But it wasn't the first time Mir has won after finding himself in bad positions. He submitted Tim Sylvia in 2004 and Lesnar in 2008 after giving up takedowns.
In some ways, the last 7½ years for Mir have been an ongoing triumph over adversity. A motorcycle crash less than three months after beating Sylvia left Mir with a compound break in one leg and completely torn knee ligaments. After a 17-month layoff to rehabilitate, Mir lost two of his first three bouts back before putting together a streak that led to his second stint as champion.
"Being told that I would never fight in UFC again and coming back and actually winning a title, that was impressive," Mir says. "At this point in my career, showing longevity in the heavyweight division, to be able to come back and win a title, that (would be) a statement in itself."
Luck went Mir's way to deliver him this latest title run. Hulking striker Alistair Overeem was slated to fight for the title Saturday until a surprise test conducted by the Nevada Athletic Commission in late March found him with a ratio of testosterone-to-epitestosterone far above the maximum permitted. UFC eventually pulled Overeem off the card and replaced him with Mir, who originally planned to fight Velasquez in UFC 146's co-main event.

I voted for Kent. I think of it as a really classic name, like a little old man! I have a thing for what I call "little old lady/ little old man" names. Or Clark Kent-- Superman! Very positive associations for me.
I have weird associations with lots of names, so I offer this advice against the name Chase- I've always thought of it as a verb, not a name. Chase conjures up images, in my mind, of a high speed chase, chasing someone as in a game of tag, and there's the Chase bank. (Please forgive me if that sounds like I'm being mean. That was not my intention!)

When a affiliate of our writer's accumulation afresh accepted that she was not accustomed with Roget's Thesaurus, shock reigned. A biographer after Roget? Unthinkable. Unbelievable. Unimaginable. Incredible. Inconceivable.
At afterwards meetings, though, I began to admiration if conceivably some of us, in our alacrity to appearance our bust associate with the man, weren't decumbent to amplify it just a bit.
A arrangement after a dozen or added alien words became a rarity, and the aboriginal being to use a "Rogetism" endemic it for at atomic the next two meetings. No one dared appearance up after a decrepit archetype of Roget beneath an arm or tucked discretely in a bag or purse. And the words, "Roget says….." were abundant to achieve any synonymical altercation that ability arise. In just a few abbreviate weeks we animated the man to sainthood.
Secretly, I grew a bit annoyed of audition about him but, to absorb my continuing in the group, accurately came up with a new Rogetic appliance anniversary week.
But, alas, one sad Tuesday morn I discovered, to my horror, that I had abandoned to adapt my accepted animated offering. Determined to amaze the accumulation with my best plan yet, I rushed to the computer and began borer out ideas.
An hour anesthetized quickly, but annihilation advantageous emerged. I anticipation and thought, but anniversary time I best up my little dejected Thesaurus, a astringent case of Roget's block attacked with new vengeance. What was I to do? The alone band-aid I could anticipate of was to alarm in sick. And so, finally, I did.
My disturbing connected for a few added canicule afore I came up with a ablaze idea. I would, with Roget's help, carbon the nursery rhymes I had abstruse as a child. They would be wonderful, marvelous, stupendous. The kids would not alone apprentice the old rhymes, but they would end up with bottomless vocabularies. Roget would do the work, and I would become famous.
For 3 days, I formed on "Jack Sprat could eat no fat, his wife could eat no lean." Was "lard" or "greasy substances" the best chat to alter fat? Neither? Conceivably "oily lumps"….. And would "devour" or "masticate" be the bigger acting for eat?
I wrote, and wrote, and rewrote, but no amount how harder I tried, it just didn't appear out aural like the old accustomed nursery beat I remembered.
Then I tried, "Mary had a little lamb", with even beneath satisfactory results. Mary had a baby bristling beastly seemed a bit bland.
Well, maybe some acclaimed Bible passages would be added my style; the twenty-third psalm, perhaps. I austere the computer and wrote, "The Deity is my herder. I will by no agency ache insufficiency." Oh no! Referring my Heavenly Father as a "herder" larboard a lot to be desired. So abundant for my career as a Bible translator.
I put Roget on authority for a brace of weeks afore I assuredly apparent a abode to fit him aback into my life. And forth with my discovery, I managed to cure the Roget malady of my writer's group, or at atomic put it aback into perspective.
One Tuesday, I appeared afore the accumulation with a agglomeration of affidavit in my hand. Distributing one to anniversary member, I instructed them to put the Roget added sayings aback into accustomed English. Prizes were awarded to the aboriginal two finishers. (I anticipation of giving them new Thesauruses, but, clumsy to abate myself to such cruelty, acclimatized for M & M's instead.)
Some examples follow. You may wish to try these or others in your own group.
1. Residents of clear-cut silicate shelters should abstain casting circumscribed masses of mineral material.
2. A anxiously scrutinized metal alembic does not accomplish bubbles of vapor.
3. It is barren to complaining because of accidentally ashen white mammary fluid.
4. A circumscribed accumulation in locomotion does not accrue bryophytic plants.
5. Precede your basement with scrutiny.
We had a lot of fun with this project, but it acicular out how antic the overuse of synonyms can be. True, the Thesaurus is a astonishing tool, but it is just that, a tool.
1. Those who reside in bottle houses should not bandy stones.
2. A watched pot never boils.
3. There is no use in arrant over spilt milk.
4. A rolling rock gathers no moss.
5. Look afore you leap.

|Observation mechanism bug?
|Thu, 08 Mar 2007 08:08:02 GMT
Hi, We want to use the observation mechanism of Jackrabbit to keep track of additions of nodes of a certain type. We've created an observation manager and added a listener like this: observationManager.addEventListener(myListener, Event.NODE_ADDED, prefix, true, null, new String[] {"my:type"}, true); On addition of a node of type my:type, however (from another session than the observation manager session), the onEvent method of the listener is not called. It seems that the following code from EventStateCollection.createEventStates is responsible for this: // 3. added items for (Iterator it = changes.addedStates(); it.hasNext();) { ItemState state = (ItemState) it.next(); if (state.isNode()) { // node created NodeState n = (NodeState) state; NodeId parentId = n.getParentId(); // the parent of an added item is always modified or new NodeState parent = (NodeState) changes.get(parentId); NodeTypeImpl nodeType = getNodeType(parent, session); Set mixins = parent.getMixinTypeNames(); Path path = getPath(n.getNodeId(), hmgr); events.add(EventState.childNodeAdded(parentId, getParent(path), n.getNodeId(), path.getNameElement(), nodeType.getQName(), mixins, session)); I.e., not the node type of the added node is added to the EventState, but the node type of the parent node. This seems to conflict with the spec (copied from the addEventListener JavaDoc): The set of events can be filtered by specifying restrictions based on characteristics of the node associated with the event. In the case of event types NODE_ADDED and NODE_REMOVED, the node associated with an event is the node at (or formerly at) the path returned by Event.getPath. In the case of event types PROPERTY_ADDED, PROPERTY_REMOVED and PROPERTY_CHANGED, the node associated with an event is the parent node of the property at (or formerly at) the path returned by Event.getPath: So is this really a bug, or am I missing something?

Dancefloor teams will never be the same
Dancefloor teams will never be the same
There are a few different statuses that DJ Kanban understands for playing, fading, filtering, and looping your sounds. You can set up an agile board with filters, swimlanes, columns and the statuses that you need.
Every issue you have defines a sample with a precise cue point and tempo defined. It could be anything from a short loop to a full song.
The add-on runs an audio engine using pure HTML5 and Javascript. It keeps track of the tempo, cues up sounds based on status changes and makes sure everything is in sync. It also has some visualisations, just because.
More details
Instead of boring old user stories, DJ Kanban responds to issues that represent a sample (such as a drum loop). When an issue is moved from the backlog, sweet sweet music can be heard.
This add-on is intended as a novel demonstration of Atlassian Connect. It requires specific additional setup and is not recommended for use in production instances.

Exploding Kittens Review!
Aug 28th
Posted by Thomas Roe
Yes, you read that correctly. Exploding Kittens. According to their website it is a game "…for people who are into kittens and explosions and laser beams and sometimes goats." So naturally, I bought it.
The funding for this game on Kickstarter set records that I am sure will not be broken for some time to come. By the time the campaign ended, there were 219,382 backers to project. That is more than DOUBLE the previous record of 105,857 backers, held by the folks at Reading Rainbow, since last summer. Now simply having an enormous number of project backers wasn't enough, Exploding More >

Next week 20th Century Fox will begin filming their upcoming Assassin's Creed live action movie, based on the incredible video game series by Ubisoft. The process of getting this film going has taken years, with Ubisoft standing hard at the helm and going through several film distributors before landing on 20th Century Fox. But with the aid of Michael Fassbender coming on as the lead actor and producer in the film over 2 years ago, things have started finally coming together. On Monday, August 31st, the Assassin's Creed movie will begin filming in locations such as Malta, London, and Spain, More >

A Look At Garth Ennis' Unexpected New Series, A Train Called Love
Aug 20th
When comic fans hear the name Garth Ennis the first thing they think of is probably extreme violence, derogatory language, nudity, or generally just Preacher, his popular Vertigo comic series. With titles like The Boys, The Pro, The Authority, Crossed, and Punisher Max under his belt there is certainly a theme to his writing style. So when it was announced at San Diego Comic Con this year that Garth Ennis' new comic series would be a romance title released through Dynamite Entertainment, people were understandably taken a back. Ennis has done some interesting war and espionage titles through Dynamite, but More >

Why? Well, considering how many Frank Miller fans out there are still waiting for more Sin City that was promised to them or the prequel to 300, Xerxes, that was even previewed in Dark More >

Two more military units assigned domestic duty by 2010, says Northcom commander; total now 4,700 troops
Elite combat brigade for Homeland Security missions raises ire of ACLU
By Erin Rosa 11/2/08 1:45 PM
In the next three years the military plans to activate and train an estimated 4,700 service members for specialized domestic operations, according to Air Force Gen. Gene Renuart, commander of U.S. Northern Command, which was created in 2002 for homeland defense missions.
The comments, made at the annual National Homeland Defense and Security Symposium in Colorado Springs last week, reveal more details about the recent stationing of active military personnel inside United States borders for what officials say is a mission centering around responding to catastrophic emergencies.
In September the Army Times reported that the 3rd Infantry Division's 1st Brigade Combat Team — a unit based in Fort Stewart, Ga., that most recently spent 35 of the last 60 months in Iraq patrolling in full battle gear — would be put under the control of Northern Command, located on Peterson Air Force Base in Colorado Springs.
William Rodriguez introduces Jermaine Jackson to 9/11 Truth
While in London last week, William Rodriguez met Jermaine Jackson and had a long discussion with him about 9/11. He also gave Jackson an advance copy of 'Last Man Out', the documentary that Rodriguez has been gathering footage and interviews for over the past couple of years. Hopefully, the DVD will be available for everyone to see in the near future. Rodriguez is in the UK doing presentations, and will try to meet with Jackson again in December, in Dubai.
Saudi Tracking of 9/11 Hijackers - Additions to the 9/11 Timeline as of November 2, 2008
Several entries have been added to the 9/11 Timeline in the past fortnight, in particular concerning tracking of the 9/11 hijackers by Saudi authorities. Nawaf Alhazmi obtained a new passport in Saudi Arabia in March 1999. The passport contained an indicator the Saudi authorities used to track his movements. Alhazmi obtained a US visa with the passport and entered the US with it. Another hijacker, Ahmed Alhaznawi, possibly obtained a passport with the same indicator before November 2000 and then left Saudi Arabia. It has also been suggested that a third hijacker, Ahmed Alnami, had a similar indicator in his passport.

Has Troy Sexton crossed the line yet?
I rarely visit the Screw Loose Change blog for reasons I'm sure would be obvious to most. However, after following up on a comment here which linked to SLC, I took a moment to skim the front page. On October 26th, Pat Curley posted a link to a video made by the notorious Troy Sexton, aka AlexJonesWrongAgain, of Hurricane, West Virginia. Troy had posted a video on October 26th of his trip to the big city of Cincinnati, OH for Richard Gage's recent presentation there. I assume that Troy notified Curley soon after posting his video since Curley's post was made the very same day. Curley thought highly enough of Troy's pitifully juvenile antics to consider it "good entertainment value," worthy of a blog post at SLC.
They Made a Killing - (Insider trading and CIA coups.)
They Made a Killing
Did people who knew about secret, CIA-led coups use that information to game the stock market?
By Ray Fisman - Oct. 28, 2008
... [Following the CIA-led coup in Guatemala in 1954] ... With a U.S. puppet back in the president's mansion, UFC's profits were safe. But it appears the company wasn't the only beneficiary of this Cold War cloak-and-dagger diplomacy: A recent study by economists Arindrajit Dube, Ethan Kaplan, and Suresh Naidu argues that those in on the planning process also profited handsomely. By tracking the stock prices of UFC and other politically vulnerable firms in the months leading up to CIA-staged coups in Guatemala, Chile, Cuba, and Iran, the researchers provide evidence that someone—perhaps one of the Dulleses, Cabots, or others in the know—was trading stocks based on classified information of these coups-in-the-making.

6 Reasons Relationships End
Why did it end? We all ask that question when a relationship is falling apart. eHarmony notes the 10 Biggest Reasons You Get Dumped (Ouch!). Watch out for these six as big red flags that could lead to heartbreak.
Three Things You Cannot Change
1. Differences in religion
"It doesn't matter, until it matters," says eHarmony. Even some relatively secular people realize how important religion can become to them when marriage and children enter the picture.
2. You want marriage, he/she doesn't
Whether this is your first or fifth marriage, if your partner is not on the same page, the relationship should not be continued. Even if you are in love, trying to convince someone to marry is not the way to a happy relationship.
3. You (or he) have met someone else
Don't try to bargain the relationship back. Three's a crowd, as they say, and it's time to move on.
Three Behaviors That Can be Managed
1. Secrets
Unless you or your partner are involved in serious addictions or illegal behavior, open up and communicate about your lives.
2. Jealousy
Subtly or not, if you are threatened by your partner's friends, family, and co-workers it will become apparent. Either trust in him or move on. If your partner is displaying jealous behavior, don't ignore it.
3. Spending issues
Financial difficulties can fall into the secrecy area of a relationship. Being honest about your money situation can help the relationship grow free of any waiting landmines. Never lie about money.

QuickBooks customization for private Class of customers & their A/R info - repost
This project was successfully completed by consus for $33 USD in a day.Get free quotes for a project like this
Project Budget$30 - $250 USD
Completed In1 day
Total Bids1
Project Description
Using QuickBooks 2012 Enterprise for Wholesale and Manufacturing.
Want to have a customization such that:
Certain customers and their transaction information (or just their transaction information) can be kept private so that QB administrator can control who sees that information:
For example - this is an idea that I have around this:
- We would create QB Classes called "Private" and "non-Private"
- If a certain customer is in that Class, then via the User and Roles settings, the QB administrator can control which Roles can & cannot see the Private customers and their invoices, balances and aging information.
- The same users who will be blocked from seeing "Private customers" will be able to see "non-Private customers" and will be able to enter invoices for those non-Private customers, see their A/R and aging information.
- If it is much easier to do this such that only the Invoices, A/R and Aging information are private: That would be OK but the preferred solution would be to block the "Private customers'" names as well.
The "Classes" idea described above is partly just to explain the concept: The customization doesn't have to be done exactly like that if there is a better way.
Full documentation of how the customization was made, will be required as part of the project.
Thanks very much for your review and consideration!

Eye Spy Justin Timberlake
Eye spy Justin Timberlake and he's not just in a suit and tie… JT is donning a spectacular new look in his latest album, The 20/20 Experience. Emphasizing that his new material is "something you can see," JT not only references eyewear in his album's title but embraces optical imagery in its album cover. Wanting to differentiate himself from his competitors and provide his fans with a true 20/20 experience, JT chose to incorporate a diverse range of rhythms and beats into his hottest tracks, such as Suit and Tie and Mirrors, to create a visually stimulating environment for his fans to enjoy while listening to his songs. JT's musical precision and intensely, beautiful ocular imagery truly sets his album apart from the rest.
Justin Timberlake is no stranger to eyewear. Diagnosed with shortsightedness (myopia) in his youth, JT has to wear glasses in order to see clearly. In fact, he has been rocking glasses since his *NSYNC days and continues to sport prescription glasses on both the big screen and in everyday life. His SPECTACULAR influence of transforming the inevitable nerdy glasses into the sexiest accessory in fashion has earned him credits amongst fashion's elite and made millions of fans all over the globe follow in his lead. Check out some of our favorite eyewear looks from JT below!

I agree that it is no one's business what sort of family you choose to assemble, or join with. But I would urge you to worry a little less about causing "discomfort" coming out as poly. I say this with full knolwedge of the challenge involved. But, as they used to say back in the 60s-70s, "the personal is political". The politics I speak of isn't one that involves a lot of political party activity or pushing for legislative action. Rather, it is the politics of acceptance of diversity and of social attitudes. We poly folk know that the poly option is as valid and good as the mono option, if not better--and so we owe it to the the social world to inform it of this which we know. We owe it to each other.
One day polyamory will be as visible, socially understood, and accepted as, say, being gay. Gay people weren't particularly visible -- out -- until after Stonewall. It was a coming out party. It's a shame that when Oprah had a show about non-monogamous folks there was no mention of the term 'polyamory' (if I remember right). But if all of the poly folk in this country formed a network and we all hit her with a pile of mail on the same day, that would be our coming out party! One simple letter would be the effort of an individual, but the combined impact would be overwhelming.

Conference update
This project was awarded to SICS for $750 USD.Get free quotes for a project like this
Project Budget$250 - $750 USD
Total Bids9
Project Description
I am a very small conference and event management company. I have some systems in place but would like to replace/upgrade. I manage 3 to 5 conferences each year from my office. My next conference is in September and I need to start promoting it by the end of June at the latest.
I would like help with the following:
- Registration form so that delegates from all over the world can register for a conference
- There are about five events each year and each one has its own registration form. The forms are similar but with
different fields and different registration amounts. Most registration fees are in USD. A couple of the smaller one
day events require the addition of VAT
- The registration form must be secure as we are accepting registration fees for the conferences
- The forms vary in the number of fields. There can be up to 20 combinations. For example: earlybird; earlybird + dinner guest; earlybird + dinner guest + workshop; standard; standard_dinner guest and so on)
- Perhaps a 'shopping cart' registration form may be the easiest ???
- The registration form needs to link to Saferpay (there is a possibility we could change from Saferpay but the preference is to stay with Saferpay)
