Jeremy Corbyn gets negative 'boost' in satisfaction ratings but Farage wins
Big news. The Indy says "Jeremy Corbyn overtakes David Cameron in leadership satisfaction ratings".
The Ipsos MORI poll showed Mr Corbyn up ten points and David Cameron down ten points after last week's Budget
Corbyn is popular?
Mr Corbyn is now on net -11 while Mr Cameron is on net -25 with the pollster.
Phew! No, he's not. Unpack your bag, Jews of Britain. Things will be ok for a while yet.
There has been speculation that Mr Corbyn's satisfaction rating with the pollster – his highest with any firm – may also be exaggerated by Conservatives saying they are satisfied with what they perceive as his poor performance.
Who was polled?
Other pollsters ask different question formulations – including whether a leader is "doing a good job" – which would likely shed light on whether the shift represents a real move in support.
The boost for Mr Corbyn however comes amid a number of pollsters showing Labour drawing nearly level, level, or slightly above the Tories in voting intention.
A -11 rating for an Opposition leader after a divisive budget is a 'boost'?
The Indy does not mention that George Osborne's satisfaction ratings equal his worst ever following the budget. And the paper completely fails to mention that Nigel Farage is the real winner:

Emory University students panic after someone writes the word "Trump" on a sidewalk
So toxic is Donald Trump that even seeing his name reduces students to jellies. To Georgia, USA:
Emory University students say they are "in pain" and "afraid" after someone left pro-Donald Trump chalk messages on their Atlanta campus, according to the student newspaper. "I'm supposed to feel comfortable and safe" here," The Emory Wheel quoted one unnamed student as saying. "But this man is being supported by students on our campus and our administration shows that they, by their silence, support it as well. … I don't deserve to feel afraid at my school."
The chalkings appeared overnight, saying "Trump 2016," according to the newspaper. About 40 students held a protest demanding action from the administration, chanting "You are not listening! Come speak to us, we are in pain!"
That Emory comedy club. What a hoot. It is a parody, right? Wrong:
"I legitimately feared for my life," Paula Camila Alarcon, a freshman at Emory who identifies as Latino, told The Daily Beast. "I thought we were having a KKK rally on campus. It was deliberate intimidation. Some of us were expecting shootings. We feared walking alone," freshman Jonathan Peraza added.
Grab the safe space mop and bucket:
College president Jim Wagner met with the students, who expressed anxiety that the writings were threats to their safety rather than political speech, considering Georgia's Republican primary was held earlier this month.
"The students shared with me their concern that these messages were meant to intimidate rather than merely to advocate for a particular candidate, having appeared outside of the context of a Georgia election or campus campaign activity," Wagner wrote in a university-wide email Tuesday. "During our conversation, they voiced their genuine concern and pain in the face of this perceived intimidation."
Jim Wagner might be beyond parody. How the hell did he get a job in education?

Rob Ford: I couldn't remember taking drugs because I was drunk
Rob Ford, the former mayor of Toronto, has died. He was just 46. In his obituary, CBC includes this:
Ford staunchly denied that he smoked crack and questioned the existence of the footage, which prompted Gawker to begin a crowd-funding campaign to buy the video. The story not only made Ford an international celebrity and the object of mockery on late-night talk shows, but it also triggered a criminal investigation, which eventually led police to acquire a copy of the video. After months of denying he was in the video, Ford confessed in November 2013 to having smoked crack, adding that it had likely occurred during one of his "drunken stupors."
He wasn't wrong. It's just that he couldn't remember taking drugs because he was drunk.

Jeremy Corbyn's aide calls for an army of tea-drinking surrender monkeys
As the Tories row over Brexit and disability payments, the Labour party obliterates casus belli, picks up the one working gun in the British Army and aims at its feet.
Britain would be safer if its defence policy was to have "cups of tea" with Isil terrorists rather than bomb them, one of Jeremy Corbyn's key allies on Labour's ruling body has said. Christine Shawcroft, who sits on the party's National Executive Committee and is a senior figure in Momentum, said that soldiers should "get the teabags out" to solve the Syrian crisis rather than resorting to air strikes.
Mugs away!
She warned that media stories about Mr Corbyn's non-interventionism were having a negative impact and imagined a voter saying: "That Jeremy Corbyn you know, faced with terrorists he'd sit down and have a cup of tea with them or something."
Does Hamas break for teatime?
Ms Shawcroft went on: "Now I mean, you know, maybe we should try it! Bombing them and attacking them has got us nowhere, why don't we get the teabags out?
"You know I did read a while ago about when the EDL were going round picketing outside mosques… One particular mosque in the Midlands somewhere just opened the doors and said would you like to come in for a cup of tea? And they went in for a cup of tea and now they're friends with the EDL. Straight away the EDL are now like oh, well actually these people are not the monsters you know that we're being told all this time, they're actually human beings that you can sit down and have a cup of tea with."
Proper English tea grown in Yorkshire, we'll bet. None of that foreign muck.
"So you know I think we should bear in mind that having cups of tea might actually be the best kind of system of defence and national security that you could have, but there we are."
Chimpanzees and scalding hot water might hold them off for a while. But will they stand a chance against Isil's Rich Tea biscuit tanks? Those things can absorb a tea bombardment.

London mayor candidate Zac Goldsmith pits Hindu against Muslim in a hideous flyer
Zac Goldsmith, your Tory candidate for London mayor, woos the anglo-Indian vote with his flyer.
If you find that hideous – the idea that people only vote for a candidate from within 'their own community' – then we're in agreement.
In any case, this divisive approach to politics doesn't work. We, for instance, know a number of white, prep-school-educated Islington-immigrants who think a vote for Jeremy Corbyn (one of their own) less attractive a prospect than being tied to a radiator and forced to drink Terry Waite's urine.

Hilary Clinton on the death penalty is classic new speak bullshit
Hilary Clinton was asked by Ricky Jackson if she supported the death penalty. Jackson spent 39 years in prison and on death row for a crime he didn't commit. He reminded her that innocent people have been executed.
As ever Clinton connived to utter many words but say absolutely nothing.
This is the politician running for President as a 'wife, mom, grandma'. She markets herself on social media as #GrandmothersKnowBest. Why does she use identity to woo voters? Because Hillary Clinton has no values you can hang your hat on. When her public record and pronouncements are so vacuous, mis-spoken and squirming, all she has is her sex and her private life.
A vote for Hillary is a vote or Hillary – you get nothing else.
This is pathetic.

North Korea's threat to nuke Manhattan is B-movie mastery
North Korea has issued a statement. Hear ye, Western filth!
"Our hydrogen bomb is much bigger than the one developed by the Soviet Union… If this H-bomb were to be mounted on an intercontinental ballistic missile and fall on Manhattan in New York City, all the people there would be killed immediately and the city would burn down to ashes."
But what does he really mean?

The Queen: 'vote yes to Brexit and bring on the Republic of Great Britain'
The Queen wants the country to leave the European Union. She doesn't vote, much like Russell Brand, but she knows the right course to plot. Well, so says the Sun, which delivers the news in an "exclusive bombshell".
Readers might wonder why Her Maj would want to opt out of a union with countries that slaughtered their royals. Go it alone and the country needs a leader, someone who represents the place. Vote out and The Munsters are doomed.
The Sun adds that "Her Majesty let rip" at Nick Clegg. The phrase 'let rip' is ripe with odour. Betty spoke with "venom and emotion" in a "bust-up" with then deputy PM Nick Clegg. The source of this story is not named. And since publication the Queen's PR mob have moved to distance her from it.
Oddly, this news comes just one day after the Sun led with a picture of the Queen's grandson, Prince William, larking about on a "luxury ski trip". Wills was "accused of shirking his job", although it's hard to pinpoint what that is other than being alive to claim the crown and extending the royal line. He's accomplishing both tasks with skill. There is talk of his work with helicopters. What is it with helicopters and the Windsors? Prince Andrew flew one; Prince Harry learned to fly one; Sarah Ferguson drew one… Maybe the Anglo-Germans are making ready for a vote to remain in the EU, and the moment when they'll need to beat a hasty retreat from the roof of Buckingham Palace.
Lower the rope ladder, Fergie. Fergie… FERGIE!!!!

Suits you: Cameron invites shabby chic Corbyn to join the Bullingdon Club
When is a suit an expensive suit? That question to the Daily Mirror, which like most of us watched Prime Minister's Question Time and heard David Cameron and Jeremy Corbyn sniping at one another.
Mr Corbyn asked if the PM would be "writing another letter to himself, asking on behalf of his constituents asking for the health secretary to intervene and support his local NHS?" The prime minister was heckled by a Labour MPs as he made his reply. One shouted, "Ask your mother."
"Ask my mother?" said Cameron. "I think I know what my mother would say. I think she would look across the despatch box and she would say 'Put on a proper suit, do up your tie and sing the national anthem'."
In the Mirror this becomes, "Millionaire David Cameron has launched a bitter attack against Jeremy Corbyn for not wearing expensive suits."
In other Daily Mirror news: "Suits you sir! Supermarket suits enjoying record sales… but which are worth the money?"
The Sunday Mirror enlisted Gabriel John of London tailors October House, who has dressed stars such as England footballer Scott Parker and Olympic cyclist Mark Cavendish, to give his verdict on suits under £60 plus a dinner suit for £75. He said: "For the price they are not a bad investment."
You don't need to be millionaire to wear a suit. Style is timeless. The Mirror told us that:
Style has no age limit – as the winners of our Glamorous Gran competition clearly demonstrate. We asked our readers to nominate their stylish nans then asked you to pick our worthy winners. And Margaret Docherty was your favourite Glam Gran. She scoops £1,000 to spend at 50-plus fashion brand JD Williams and a 12-month contract with modelling agency Mrs Robinson, which specialises in maturer models.
And Corbyn is a bit of a toff, as the Mirror reported:
…despite many thinking he may snub the event, Mr Corbyn did in fact arrive at the event wearing an outfit that would not look out of place in a Bullingdon Club portrait. As he arrived at the banquet…
Jeremy Corbyn earns £125,000 a year and lives in Islington, where terraced properties sold for an average price of £1,331,997 in 2015. He could wear a suit in the Commons. But he chooses not to. With money comes choice to create your own image.

Boris Johnson knifes Cameron as Labour woos patriots
Boris Johnson has "electrified the referendum race" by backing the No vote to take Britain out of the European Union, says the Times. The mayor of London stood on the steps of his London home and told vast ranks of media:
"After a great deal of heartache I don't think there's anything else I can do: I will be advocating Vote Leave… because I want a better deal for the people of this country," he said. "To save them money and to take back control, that's really, I think, what this is all about."
Earlier in the day, David Cameron had told the BBC's Andrew Marr Show:
"I think the prospect of linking arms with Nigel Farage and George Galloway and taking a leap into the dark is the wrong step for our country and if Boris and if others really care about being able to get things done in our world then the EU is one of the ways in which we get them done."
Johnson counters in his Daily Telegraph column:
"We will hear a lot in the coming weeks about the risks of this option; the risk to the economy, the risk to the City of London, and so on; and though those risks cannot be entirely dismissed I think they are likely to be exaggerated. We have heard this kind of thing before, about the decision to opt out of the euro, and the very opposite turned out to be the case… We will be told that a Brexit would embolden Putin, though it seems to me he is more likely to be emboldened, for instance, by the West's relative passivity in Syria."
The Mirror says Boris is a "RAT" who has "humiliated his old Eton chum David Cameron". It is a "cynical bid to become Tory leader" when Cameron stands down. Cynicism in politics? Never!
Over two more pages, the Mirror says Boris has stuck a "dagger in Cam's heart", "heaping humiliations" on the PM.
The Mail agrees. "Boris Johnson dealt a dagger blow to David Cameron," the paper states at the top of on the front page.
Knife-crime remains rife in Broken Britain.
The Mirror invites Labour stalwart Alan Johnson to write in favour of staying in Europe beneath the headline, "A vote to Remains is the real patriotic choice."
In the Express, Boris for 'No' is a "big boost for the Daily Express crusade". It is your patriotic duty to vote 'No'. Boris is "the most popular politician in the country". He is backing the Express' bid to leave the "discredited Union".
The Star says indelible UKIP leader Nigel Farage is having the "last laugh". He most likely had the first laugh, too. Farage likes laughing in public, belching that big braying easy-geyser guffaw whenever a camera hones into view.
The Sun says Boris is the "Blond Bombshell", who has delivered a "massive blow" to Cameron's vision. It is the "PM's WORST NIGHTMAYOR". One page on and David Cameron's deal with Europe sees him mocked up as "PINOCCHIOEU".
One thing is clear: Johnson has managed to get the Sun on his side. And when it comes to winning a General Election, that's no bad thing.
Vote now – and vote often!

Time for Tango to give Jamie Oliver a good slap
Jamie Oliver says he will "go ninja" should David Cameron refuse to impose a 'sugar tax' on fizzy drinks. Ninja's are people you can't see or hear. Go for it, Jamie. Go ninja. Stay ninja!
Oliver wants anyone who eats things he thinks contain too much sugar to pay a tax. Oliver sees tax as a means of teaching you a lesson. This is shocking news for those of us who thought tax was a way of raising money.
Jamie reasons that expensive sugary treats will deter people from eating them. In Jamie's draconian dictatorship, the government is in charge of everything. It tells us what we can eat, when we can eat it, at what price and in what volume. Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn might consider Oliver's attack on Cameron a good thing, although even he must recognise what a disaster this Soviet-style meddling is.
It's not the job of governments to tell us what we can eat. We can work that out for ourselves. Of course, in elitist Oliver's world, the brains are with the rich who can afford a more expensive glass of pop and exercise self-restraint brought about by increased choice; the poor must do as they're told and feel better for it. Or else.
Oh, and as for the Sugar Ninja – the one you never saw coming – we prefer him:

Censor demands ban on singing Delilah at Wales and Stoke FC matches
Media hungry Labour MP Chris Chris Bryant wants people to stop singing Delilah, the song made famous by Welsh crooner Tom Jones. He specifically wants us to stop singing it at Wales rugby union matches and whenever Stoke City FC play – fans of both teams have taken the song to their hearts. It is one of many songs from the golden age of pop still sung by British sports fans.
Chris, MP for Rhondda, says:
"It is a simple fact that when there are big international rugby matches on, and sometimes football matches as well, the number of domestic violence incidents rises dramatically."
Why, why, why, Chris Bryant?
"I know that some people will say, 'Oh, here we go, he's a terrible spoilsport,' but the truth is that that song is about the murder of a prostitute. It goes right to the heart of the issues we are discussing. There are thousands of other songs we could sing."
Such as 'Chris Bry-ant is a f***ing twat. Chris Bry-ant is a f***ing twat etc.' (Sung to the tune of Go West). Or, 'There's only one Chris Bryant, he demands we stay silent. He's five foot tall and his brain's too small, Livin'in a Bryant wonderland!' Or, 'He's red, he's fat he rents out his London flat, Chris Bry-ant, Christ Bry-ant'.
Says Chris the censor:
"I have sung Delilah as well — everybody loves doing the 'She stood there laughing' moment but if we are really going to take this issue seriously in Wales, we have to change how we do things."
Chris is Labour MP. So let's play out their theme tune. It features lots of Welsh kit red:
The people's flag is deepest red,
It shrouded oft our martyred dead,
And ere their limbs grew stiff and cold,
Their hearts' blood dyed its ev'ry fold.
Then raise the scarlet standard high.
Within its shade we'll live and die,
Though cowards flinch and traitors sneer,
We'll keep the red flag flying here.
Look 'round, the Frenchman loves its blaze,
The sturdy German chants its praise,
In Moscow's vaults its hymns are sung
Chicago swells the surging throng.
Then raise the scarlet standard high.
Within its shade we'll live and die,
Though cowards flinch and traitors sneer,
We'll keep the red flag flying here.
It waved above our infant might,
When all ahead seemed dark as night;
It witnessed many a deed and vow,
We must not change its colour now.
Then raise the scarlet standard high.
Within its shade we'll live and die,
Though cowards flinch and traitors sneer,
We'll keep the red flag flying here.
It well recalls the triumphs past,
It gives the hope of peace at last;
The banner bright, the symbol plain,
Of human right and human gain.
Then raise the scarlet standard high.
Within its shade we'll live and die,
Though cowards flinch and traitors sneer,
We'll keep the red flag flying here.
It suits today the weak and base,
Whose minds are fixed on pelf and place
To cringe before the rich man's frown,
And haul the sacred emblem down.
Then raise the scarlet standard high.
Within its shade we'll live and die,
Though cowards flinch and traitors sneer,
We'll keep the red flag flying here.
With heads uncovered swear we all
To bear it onward till we fall;
Come dungeons dark or gallows grim,
This song shall be our parting hymn.
Then raise the scarlet standard high.
Within its shade we'll live and die,
Though cowards flinch and traitors sneer,
We'll keep the red flag flying here.
Or not.

Lord Janner: 3 missed chances, a self-serving CPS inquiry and allegations now fact
Westminster paedos: a look at reporting on the story of sex crimes in high places.
The Daily Mirror has been at the forefront of the allegations of murderous paedophiles protected by the Establishment. Today over pages 6 and 7 it looks at the late Lord Janner, a former Labour MP and peer who died an innocent man. The story, however, is that he dodged justice. He was accused of 2 counts of sex offences against boys between the 1960s and 80s. He never stood in the dock.
"Lord Janner Child Sex Abuse Probe 'Shambles – they had 3 chances to charge him. It was just one big cover up."
Lord Janner is now covered by earth, what with his having been buried, if not exactly laid to rest.
Failures by police and prosecutors allowed Lord Janner to escape child sex charges three times, a damning independent inquiry has revealed.
Janner is damned! How's that for rough justice.
But a man who told detectives Janner abused him as a boy has denounced the report as another Establishment whitewash. Paul Miller, 52, one of 25 alleged Janner victims, said: "This report is another cover up. Nobody has been named yet again. The people who failed the victims should be named and held accountable."
The story continues:
The independent inquiry's report published yesterday said it was 'wrong' Janner…had not been charged with child abuse in 1991. It added that police and the Crown Prosecution Service also failed to act in 2002 and again in 2007 despite there being a 'realistic prospect' of convicting him."
The independent inquiry was commissioned by the director of public prosecutions. It was carried out by retired High Court Juge Sir Richard Henriques. He says: "I have concluded that the decision not to charge Janner was wrong and that there was enough evidence against Janner on December 4 1991 to provide a realistic prospect of conviction."
Page 10: "Voice of the Mirror."
Voice of the Mirror: Victims of Lord Janner need the truth
Not alleged victims. "Victims".
For decades the former Labour MP Lord Janner preyed on vulnerable children.
Justice denied is judgement delayed until the accused is dead. Guilty!
He is now dead but he leaves behind a legacy of wrecked lives, trauma and misery. The authorities have serious questions to answer as to why they failed to press charges against Janner. All the evidence points to a cover-up by an establishment either too fearful to prosecute one of their own or which, in the worst instance, deliberately concealed his wrongdoing.
Daily Mail Page 16: "How Janner dodged justice 3 times"
What about the law and all those barriers to justice?
The Sun Page 13: Jane Moore says, "Protect victim of serial liars."
Last week, nearly a year after 20 officers raided Lord Bramall's home, the Met police issued a churlish statement in which it said there was "insufficient evidence" to pursue the claim against him. "Zero evidence" might have been a better description.
He has expressed his frustration that the Met described his accuser's claims as "credible and true" before he even knew he was under investigation… is it possible that the culture of Jimmy Savile and police failure to act has prompted the pendulum to swing too far the other way?
Lord Bramall questions whether detectives had carried out a "partial and objective" investigation and suggested they lacked judgment because they were "terrified" of being accused of covering something up. In other words, it has become a victim-centric culture where all accusers are believed even when the most cursory of initial checks might suggest something doesn't quite add up.
The dead are always guilty. The living are always clean and keen to emphasis that "lessons have been learnt".
As Director of Public Prosecutions Alison Saunders says:
"The inquiry's findings that mistakes were made confirms my view that failings in the past by prosecutors and police meant that proceedings were not brought. It is a matter of sincere regret that on three occasions, opportunities to put the allegations against Lord Janner before a jury were not taken. It is important that we understand the steps which led to these decisions not to prosecute, and ensure that no such mistakes can be made again."
Daily Express Page 6: "Outrage at 'three missed chances' to charge Janner over sex abuse claims"
The Express points to failures by police and Crown lawyers. It says the police failed to listen to the alleged victims. The police never do listen. They talk and expect us to hear. Time to name them and the lawyers. Or are we waiting for them to die before they can be questioned?

FIN RIPPING CATASTROPHE please help
I put a red comb tail gourami in my community tank and when I got off work my black molly was screwed up bad. his top fin is like non exhistant and his tail fin is shredded. will the fins grow back? Is there something I can do to help it heal? I removed the combtail from the tank. actual name of the fish is ceylon combtail. some of my other mollies got the crap ripped outta them too but the black one is the worst. please let me know if the fins will heal/grow back.
sure the gourami wasn't a crowntail betta:-)?
i would add melafix to the water per instruction on bottle,
keep the water as clean as possible,with regualr water changes,
the fins should grow back,are you taking the combtail back to the store ?
i found this,if it's any help.
The fins will grow back, and usually quite well. Make sure to keep the water clean and add "Stress Coat" or "Melafix" to the water. Salt can be added, but very little. I'd say only 1 teaspoon/10g.
Yes, in time they will grow back. One of my otos got stuck in a spinach clip as I was removing it. It took off nearly his entire tail! :oops:
It took awhile but he now has a nice new tail. This incident taught me to carefully look at (and in) the clip before removing it.
thanks to all of you for taking time to answer.
no problem.
let us know how they get on :)
They are starting to grow back now, itll take a long time im sure but you can see that the repair has started and thank god no ich out breaks when that big bully pushed those fish around.
that's great news !! :)
remember to keep the water as clean as you can :)

Fade Away Creek
Part 2: Scattered Dreams
As John lies in bed asleep, his mind slips off into a strange dream. Unlike most dreams, John isn't actually in it instead he dreams of a man, Michael Glashen who gets a call from his ex-wife. She shares the news with him of his daughter's death. She was 6 years old, her name was Coraline. She was out in her yard playing with her red ball when she dropped it. The ball rolled into the street, Coraline being a 6 year old girl didn't see it coming, the driver in the car didn't stop in time, she died instantly. Michael was devastated with the death of his daughter and he wanted revenge. 2 months after the accident, Michael went on a shootout at a mall where the killer was working at the time. He shot and killed his target as well as 14 other people in the process until he was shot and killed by police.
John awakens from his dream, not understanding anything about it. He notices that it's still night out. He looks at the clock and it shows 2:25 a.m., he shakes his head and says to himself "these clocks broken". He looks around in search for the red ball but it isn't where he left it. He hears a knock at the door. He opens it and rolling at his feet is the ball, he picks it up and examines it. As he rotates the ball around he sees something that looks like letters. He wipes off the dust and reads it out loud. "Coraline", he reads in a shocked manner. He drops the ball and runs back to the lobby. He walks to the desk, but there's nobody there. He rings the bell and the same woman he met earlier comes out of the room behind the desk. He asked her for a phone, she tells him the phones were down. He asked for the nearest hospital, she points across the street. As her head is turned to the side, John notices what looks like a bullet wound just above her ear. John runs across the street and into the hospital. There were a lot of people; most of them looked as if they were already dead. John runs to the front desk where he meets a nurse. He begged for some assistance and shows her his cuts and bruises and explains to her what he's been seeing. She calms him down and takes him to a room where she treats his cuts.
John awakens in a chair, he sees the nurse standing above him. She explains to him that he had deep cuts to his head and was given stitches. She also explains to him that the things he was seeing were hallucinations and gives him a pill that would prevent them from coming back. John sighs in relief and walks out of the room. There weren't as much people in the hospital as before, just a few people who looked pretty normal for the most part. John walks outside and notices a library, he goes in hoping they had computers where he could contact his wife by e-mail. He walks in; it's almost as if nobody else is there. He looks around and notices the computers; he takes a seat and turns the computer on. He's shocked that the internet is up and running while the phone lines are down and the snow is still falling. He opens up the browser, as he's searching through the internet he finds an article about a shootout at a mall. Remembering something similar happened in his dream, he opens the article. As he's reading the article every little detail sounds familiar. Girl named Coraline was killed in an accident, her father Michael shoots up a mall in an attempt to get revenge on the killer. It all happened in his dream. John looks through pictures of the victims, he comes across familiar faces. He notices the woman in the photo is the woman he met at the front desk of the hotel. He's shocked in disbelief, as he is reading, he learns that her name is Elisa Monaco and she died in a hospital from a gunshot wound to the head at 12:43 p.m. John sits in his chair with his arms over his head, a frightened look on his face and a desire to know what is going on. He runs outside, a young woman confronts him and says "nice weather we're having". John walked away and thinks to himself "she was wearing a bikini in 20 degree weather, what's going on?"
John talks to himself"is it a dream? Is the world at its end? Am I dead?" He wants answers but it seems as if everyone is just disappearing. John starts walking back to the hotel, as he's walking he feels something at his feet, it's the red ball. He turns to his left and sees the little girl who John now knows is Coraline. He walks toward her, as he got closer, she ran. John chased after her yelling, "Wait I'm not going to hurt you!" As he is running, Coraline disappears; John continued to run after her. Just ahead a shadow of what appears to be a man holding a gun slowly walks toward John. John begins to walk backwards, as the shadow gets closer John runs faster. Faster and faster John runs, looking back and forth. As John is running he hears guns going off, people screaming, police sirens, ambulance. He closes his eyes and continues to run until there is nowhere else to run. He is trapped and the shadow gets closer and closer. Suddenly everything is darkened; he closes his eyes and wishes he were home.

Membership Levels and Benefits
What is the difference between a Household membership and a Dual membership?
A Household membership covers two adults and any children or grandchildren in the family under 18 years old.
A Dual membership covers either two named people or one named person who then receives a guest pass each visit. If two people share a Dual membership, there are no free guest passes included.
Is there an individual membership?
Individuals are covered by a Dual membership. A Dual membership with just one name on it allows that person to bring a guest every time he or she visits.
How do the Omnitheater benefits work?
Each person covered under the membership gets one Omnitheater ticket per day for regularly scheduled films each time they visit. There is no limit to how often members can visit, so you and your family can visit the Omnitheater as often as you wish. If you choose to see more than one film per day, the additional films are available at a discount. Members most commonly see more than one film a day during the Omnifest film festival.
How can I make reservations?
Members can make reservations online. There is a $1/person service fee for online reservations. You can also call us at (651) 221-9444 and make reservations; there is no service fee for members to make phone reservations. Member reservations may only be made by the adults listed on the membership.
Do members receive discounts on parking?
Certainly. Members pay $5 to park in the Science Museum parking ramp. If there is a large event in downtown Saint Paul, a $12 pre-pay event parking fee may apply. In that case, show your current membership card on the way in and get charged the $5 member discounted price. If you don't have your card, pay the event parking fee and stop at the Box Office for reimbursement.
Can I put an additional adult on my membership?
We don't have any membership where more than two adults can be named members. However, some Supporting Membership levels can bring two non-member guests (of any age) to receive member benefits during each visit.
Can I put my nanny or PCA on my membership?
Admission is always free for working Personal Care Attendants when they're visiting with a client.
If a nanny will be bringing your children to the museum, you can sign up for our Nanny Card program. Under this program, the nanny is charged a very nominal fee: $3 for museum admission, or $5 for museum admission and an Omnitheater show. Please call (651) 221-9409 to sign up for this program. If your care provider will be coming in without the card, please call (651) 221-9444 and make a reservation for them, letting the ticketing agent know that the nanny is coming in with the children.
Can I change the names on my membership?
The names listed on a membership may be changed if there has been a change in the family's circumstances, such as a death, move, or a change in relationship status. Name change requests, including the reason for the change, must be sent in writing to email@example.com or mailed to the Membership Office, Science Museum of Minnesota, 120 West Kellogg Blvd, Saint Paul, MN 55102. Please submit name change requests one week before your next Science Museum visit for the best possible customer service when you attend the museum.
Can I begin using my membership immediately?
Yes! Your membership begins the day you join. Write down your membership number to use until your member cards arrive. You can immediately use your membership in person, over the phone, or online.
Will I get a renewal notice when my membership expires?
Yes. You will receive your first renewal notice in the mail about six weeks before your membership expires.
Is my membership good at other museums?
Your Science Museum membership card will grant you free general admission to more than 350 museums that participate in the Travel Passport Program sponsored by the Association of Science-Technology Centers (ASTC). Special exhibits, planetariums, or theaters may not be included. To find a museum near your travel destination, visit the ASTC website or call the Member Line at (651) 221-9409. Please call ahead to your destination museum to confirm your benefits.
Can I purchase a membership as a gift for someone else?
Yes. Please visit our Gift Memberships page for details.
Can my membership be refunded?
No. Memberships are not refundable in whole or in part.
Can my membership be revoked?
Memberships are revocable licenses. The museum reserves the right to refuse or revoke membership and/or deny admission without refund for non-compliance with applicable rules and terms or for inappropriate conduct. Purchase of an annual membership does not entitle purchaser to renewal in a subsequent year.
Membership levels, benefits, and prices are subject to change without notice.
Membership Tax Deductibility
The following information is valid for tax year 2016 and before. Tax deductibility guidelines will be changing for tax year 2017. We will post more details about those changes as soon as they are available.
How much of my membership purchase amount is tax deductible?
The full value of a basic membership purchased from the Science Museum is generally tax deductible. If you have any questions, you should consult a tax advisor.
I don't remember the amount or date of my membership purchase. How can I find out?
Please contact the membership department at firstname.lastname@example.com or (651) 221-9409 and we will provide you with a receipt.
What if I renewed my membership earlier or later than usual?
Any membership purchases made during the tax year are tax deductible. You could have two such gifts in one year if you renewed early, or you could have no eligible gifts if you renewed late. The Membership Department can provide you with a receipt detailing your purchases for the current tax year.
What if the membership was purchased through a different other organization?
If you purchased your membership from a Science Museum partner (e.g. a radio station) or another organization (e.g. at a silent auction fundraiser), you must consult that organization regarding tax deductibility. Because the funds from your purchase did not go to the Science Museum, we cannot advise you about tax deductibility in those circumstances.
What about gift memberships?
Unfortunately, gift memberships are generally not tax deductible, either for the giver or the recipient.
Is my Supporting Membership tax deductible?
The following information is valid for tax year 2016 and before. Tax deductibility guidelines will be changing for tax year 2017. We will post more details about those changes as soon as they are available.
The amount of your Supporting Membership that is deductible for federal income tax purposes is limited to the amount of your gift, less the value of certain membership benefits you are entitled to receive. The museum estimates the value of those benefits as follows:
|Contribution Level
|Value of Benefits
|$225-$299 (Darwin)
|$300-$499 (Carver)
|$500-$999 (Hopper)
|$1,000-$2,499 (Einstein)
|Gift is fully tax-deductible
|$2,500-$4,999 (Curie)
|Gift is fully tax-deductible
|$5,000-$9,999 (da Vinci)
|Gift is fully tax-deductible
|$10,000-$24,999 (Aristotle)
|Gift is fully tax-deductible
|$25,000-$49,999 (Newton)
|Gift is fully tax-deductible
|$50,000 and up (Galileo)
|Gift is fully tax-deductible
The full amount of your contribution is tax-deductible if you have notified the development office in writing that you do not wish to receive member benefits.
Membership Cards
How long does it take to receive my member cards?
It takes about three weeks after the membership office receives a completed membership application to receive a set of member cards. If you haven't received your cards within this time period, please email email@example.com or call the Member Line at (651) 221-9409.
What if I lose my member cards?
Just email email@example.com or call the Member Line at (651) 221-9409 and let us know that you need new cards. We will send a new set to you the next time cards are printed (every two weeks). There is no fee for replacement cards.
Can I use my membership without my member cards?
Yes. All you need to use your membership is your member identification number and a photo ID.
Member Guests
Can a member bring guests?
Of course! Guests of members pay regular admission prices. Members may include guests on their phone or online reservations to ensure all parties receive tickets to the same showtimes.
Can I bring a guest to member events?
Generally, member events are for members only. If an event notice or invitation specifically mentions that guests are permitted, members are welcome to bring them along. Dual members with only one person named on the membership may bring one guest to member events.
What if I have other questions?
Send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com or call the Member Line at (651) 221-9409. The Membership Office is open Monday - Friday from 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. If you need immediate assistance, please call (651) 221-9444.

Under appreciated emotional amp
Pros: Incredible soundstage, effortless musicality, ability to tune sound via tube rolling, detailed without sounding harsh, built like a tank
Cons: Large footprint, pricey new, causes separation anxiety, not great for rock (not the most forgiving with poor recordings). Lacks input
So I've owned the Cary HH-1 for a little over a year and decided to sell it the other day. Oh boy do I regret my decision now. After spending so long with a piece of gear I grew attached to its sound signature and level of performance that is hard to come by. I've heard better amps for sound staging, micro-detail, bass, mids, treble etc. but there are very few that can put all together to give the synergistic emotion of the Cary. I'm finding I'm listening to music now but not enjoying it and to me that is what it's all about. So what do I do now? I've got great gear and sounds very nice but I'm coming to realization that there are very few amps out there capable of creating the musicality of the Cary. During the Chris Botti concert last night in Nashville, I realized I made the mistake of selling the amp. The way I felt during the concert is how I felt listening to his music on the Cary, the lifelike presentation most amps can't reproduce.
So, I'm always surprised when I show up to meets and I have my Cary, most people are intrigued by it but seem to be intimidated by its size but are always surprised when they listen to a headphone and are like I don't remember these cans sounding like this before, they sound better than I remember. This happened several times with the Sennheiser HD700 which garnered much more respect through the Cary and many preferred them over the HD800.
Tubes: This amp does respond well to tube rolling even with the MOSFET output. The stock EH 6922 don't do this amp justice and maybe why this amp doesn't get the respect it deserves because all reviews are primarily based on the stock tubes. Getting into the premium tubes will let this amp shine and come to full glory (Cary put better stock tubes in your next version please, might get some traction with the next one). OK, so listening to this amp with better tubes will all you to customize the sound you are looking for. I've rolled several Amperex 6922 PQ and 7308 USN-CEP and find both outstanding. PQ's are slightly more recessed but give that classic Amperex warmth to the mid-range. I preferred the USN's due to its electric energy in the treble. Also, if you love detail the Tesla e88cc will delve deep to the black depths of the music. It's amazing how quiet this amp is (using a black sand violet mkii pc) there is no hiss or faint background noise unless dictated by the music selection.
Build Quality: Cary has always done an excellent job of over building their gear, no exception here. The amp has an overbuilt toroidal power supply delivering endless supply of current, except to the power hungry HE-6. The chassis is rock solid and one of my favorite volume knob of any amp I've used. It's silky smooth and ultra-precise. The front plate can be changed between a black and silver face plate, the black does show finger smudges easily however. As reviewed by Mr. Tom the RCA jacks are weak and cheap, would like to have a better jacks (quibble).
In closing, I could gush on and on about my year with this amp but will leave it to you to go out and try it for yourself. They are quite rare however which is sad, probably one of the best kept secrets in the headphone amp world, but I don't want it to be, it deserves so much more!!

Barobax News
Pyar ki pungi: Pritam is inspired yet again
Even as Saif tries to woo his audience with this song, we find out that it's uncannily similar to a song by the Iranian underground pop group Barobax
It's really not surprising to find out that Pritam has yet again found inspiration in an international track. His much-talked about Pyar Ki Pungi from Agent Vinod is very similar to the song Soosan Khanoom by an Iranian underground band called Barobax. The starting beats of the songs are exactly the same, in fact. Later, Pritam goes on to a slightly different tune before coming back to the original in the music after the chorus and the rap portion in the stanza, which are again exactly like the Barobax song.

Township approves grants-in-aid
Five Spallumcheen organizations will get a 2013 financial boost from the township after grants-in-aid were approved.
Four of the requests were unanimously approved by council but one drew opposition from Couns. Todd York and Joe Van Tienhoven, and that was recommendation of a $2,000 grant-in-aid to the Armstrong Spallumcheen Museum and Archive Society.
The pair opposed the move because they wanted to see council grant the society's original request for $2,500, a motion that was defeated by Mayor Janice Brown and Councillors Andrew Casson, Rachael Ganson and Ed Hanoski.
"We opposed it because of the $500 drop," explained Van Tienhoven.
The O'Keefe Ranch will receive a grant for $5,000, the largest item handed out.
Caravan Farm Theatre will receive $3,500; the Okanagan Boys and Girls Club receives $1,500 and the Armstrong Spallumcheen Fire Department will get a $750 grant-in-aid.

Spallumcheen now has a policy in place related to council members attending conferences, seminars and meetings and the payments of expenses related to such.
Prior to Monday, the township's written policy included direction for payment of expenses for members of staff and other authorized personals in regards to attending conferences and seminars.
"This policy does not include similar authority for council members attending such events in their role as elected officials," said Cindy Graves, the township's deputy corporate officer.
Council agreed that the township's annual budget for council conference, seminars, meetings, workshops or courses be a minimum of $30,000, and confirms that all members of council may attend the UBCM and SILGA (Southern Interior Local Government Association) without further specific approval by council.
Flood policy supported
The township will support, as a participating member, the North Okanagan Emergency Management's proposed flood policy.
The draft was written up following the events of the 2012 flood season.
"NOEM staff advised that the significant flood events of 2012 had identified a number of concerns over public expectations, provincial support and a lack of share directions and responses among participating members," wrote Spallumcheen chief administrative officer Greg Betts.
The intent of the proposed policy is to provide constant messaging throughout the region and among the participants with respect to managing flood responses, coordination and administration.
It will also identify some of the legal administrative capacity and resource issues and limitations related to managing and responding to flooding throughout the region.
Council unanimously threw its support behind the policy.
Council backs application
Steele Springs Waterworks District in Spallumcheen received council's unanimous support for its application for a $5,000 grant from the Okanagan Basin Water Board.
Steele Springs wants to continually monitor water use of the springs so that over consumption or major leaks can be detected and dealt with quickly.
The money would be used for the installation of a water meter to help with the monitoring.
If approved, the district would start the project on June 1, and it would be completed by Aug. 31.

Not only one person but millions of people have been able to get out of the poor financial situation through the consumer debt relief bailout scheme. The relief funds, which are distributed through the relief network, are actually meant for providing consumer debt relief bailout in the economy.
Today, majority of the people are suffering the bad economic situation which was created by the recession. The prices of the commodities have gone up and it has become very hard for the common masses to support their lifestyles. Many people have also lost their jobs and other are facing huge deductions in their income. Because of this, people are neither able to pay the money to the creditor not manage their finances. This has created a financial stagnancy in the economy and hence there is less flow of capital.
The consumer debt relief bailout scheme was introduced and distributed through the relief firms so as to help the people get financial help. Through this option or scheme, it was really possible for the American citizens to step out of the problem. The financial relief firms started to provide wonderful solutions to the indebted people and thus they were able to manage as well as handle the tight financial situations in an organised and legal manner. The legitimate financial firms process the liability reduction deal or consolidation in a legal manner and thus you need not worry at all. The economic condition has improved a lot after the relief fund was released in the economy.
It is through the relief funds, the consumer debt relief bailout is given to the applicants (people in liabilities). It is a must to follow as well as fulfill all the legalities if you want to get the most legitimate help and support from the financial settlement firms. The firms are financed by the relief network and hence the liabilities of the people can be realistically removed. More and more firms started to enter the market when the funds were distributed. Through this fund, even the creditors could realise their money which was lost during the time of settlement.
The consumer debt relief bailout is considered as a turning point in the lives of the people because stepping out of the tough financial situation is made possible. Today, there is a great demand for the services of the legitimate financial firms who are supported by the relief network of the American economy.
Debt settlement is clearly a better alternative than bankruptcy and due to the massive amounts of consumers in debt, creditors are agreeing to very generous debt settlement deals. To compare debt settlement companies it would be wise to visit a free debt relief network which will locate the best performing companies in your area for free.

Destroyed the Great Gate
|Destroyed the Great Gate, Main Quest
Destroying the Great Gate outside of Bruma is very similar to closing any other Oblivion Gate except the region of Oblivion that you enter is somewhat larger and you're facing a fifteen minute time limit, which begins once you enter the gate. Upon entering the gate, you'll see the siege engine in front of you, the main tower in the distance, and six smaller towers, with three on either side. You'll need to enter one of the two smaller towers that's furthest away from you to trip the switch that opens one of the wargates and gives you access to the main tower.
Start by running west along the lava shore until you reach the Smoke and Scorch cave system. This system will allow you to access the two smaller towers. It doesn't matter which one you enter; simply fight your way to the top and flip the switch to open the wargate. Exiting out of the door halfway up the tower will take you out onto a bridge facing the main tower. At this point, simply fight your way up to the top of the tower. Given the constraints of the time limit, its extensive fighting is not recommended – simply run past as many enemies as you can. Once you grab the Great Sigil Stone, you'll be transported back to the battlefield outside Bruma and the achievement will unlock.

I will not start this story with the words 'Once upon a time', and this tale will not end with a 'happily ever after'. For this tale does not begin in a mythical land 'far, far away', but in the average city of London. And the lines of good and evil are not always so clearly defined. Rather, we find ourselves dabbling in the ever indefinite shades of grey.
But I'll let you judge the shadows for yourself.
So, my story begins, as many do, with a letter. A letter written on yellow parchment, with green ink, to be exact. A letter, sealed with thick red wax, bearing an intricate coat of arms.
My story begins at age eleven. To most, eleven is still an age of childhood. The cusp of adolescence, but still maintaining a level of innocence. For me, it was not so much as cusp, as it was a cliff. A sixty foot cliff I had no business standing atop of.
It was no wonder I fell.
I suppose all beginnings come with an introduction, with some form of explanation. As it gives me a platform to launch off of, I'll start with something basic. My name is Emily Parker. Far from a singular name, in fact, it's one of the most popular in Britain. But I could hardly be called ordinary. I don't think it would be fair – or logical - to call anyone with magical abilities ordinary. I promise I'm not insane, nor are you, for you've heard correctly. My name is Emily, and I am a witch.
Now, whether or not I'm a talented witch, I cannot say. I'll leave that for a reader to decide. But I will make one promise.
My story is far from boring.
