'Dummy bidders' to be outlawed in Victoria
Broadcast: 2/5/2003
Reporter: Kerri Ritchie
JEREMY GREEN, HOME OWNER: I have a mistrust of agents. They make no bones about trying to quickly as they can get you signed up so they have exclusive rights to basically open and shut your door. And one particular agent actually went a bit further. He said, "You want this amount for your house? I said, "Yes." He said, "Well no problem we'll stick a couple of dummy bidders in and we'll take it to auction."
KERRI RITCHIE, REPORTER: After what he describes as 'dodgy' dealings with real estate agents Jeremy Green decided two weeks ago to cut out the middle man and go it alone.
JEREMY GREEN: Basically all they are doing is opening and shutting a door for people and the bottom line is who knows best about my house an agent or myself and I just put two and two together and I thought, I could do this.
KERRI RITCHIE: Jeremy Green advertised his East St Kilda home in the newspaper. Among those who turned up for a tour a few unwelcome guests.
JEREMY GREEN: I had a couple of people ring me and come through and five or ten minutes into the conversation - "Oh, incidentally I'm an agent, here is my card" and I thought doesn't my ad say that this is a private sale.
KERRI RITCHIE: In a bid to clean up the real-estate game and weed out the so-called 'cowboys' the State Government this week introduced legislation which outlaws dummy bidding at auctions as well as the practice of under and over quoting property prices. Agents are often accused of luring both buyers and sellers with false expectations. If the law is passed, agents will have to quote a more precise price range, no more than 10%. For example, if the lower limit is $300,000, the upper limit quoted can't be more than $330,000. Auctioneers will also have to disclose all bids they make at auction on behalf of the seller, rather than inventing bids to push the auction along.
JOHN LENDERS, CONSUMER AFFAIRS MINISTER: We are trying to make it absolutely transparent for buyers when they buy homes, that they know exactly what is going on.
KERRI RITCHIE: But the mood has left agents on the ground feeling a little wounded.
RODNEY MORLEY, REAL ESTATE AGENT: Hard done by, persecuted, aggravated and just a lot, lot more paperwork for everything we do. We are basically auctioning with handcuffs where no other industry is forced to.
KERRI RITCHIE: Rodney Morley has been a real estate agent for the past 30 years.
RODNEY MORLEY: 99% of us are family people, hard working people averaging 70 hours a week. Sure there is 1%, or so, of what we call 'cowboys' in the industry but they are in every industry and I think the new legislation will produce more cowboys in their efforts to bypass the new requirements and they are easy to bypass.
KERRI RITCHIE: According to Consumer Affairs Victoria, dummy bidding is one of the biggest concerns for home buyers. Sometimes the phantom buyer is a relative or friend of the seller. Sometimes a paid plant by the real estate agent.
MAN: And I see them standing there standing at the background and I see them and I have a smile. But it seems to work and the prices do go up.
KERRI RITCHIE: So have you ever placed a dummy bidder in a crowd at an auction?
RODNEY MORLEY: I certainly have for the benefit of the vendor and to achieve the highest and best price and nobody is not aware that this goes on at every auction and people are used to it and when you ask them how they want to sell their property it is always by public auction and they always want to go along with putting their own people in the audience in order to have some atmosphere at the auction. They are only pushing the price to a level that the vendor will accept so it's not an artificial price because below that price the vendor won't sell, so it's only really theatrics.
KERRI RITCHIE: So it's not dishonest?
RODNEY MORLEY:I don't think it's dishonest at all.
KERRI RITCHIE: But the State Government disagrees. Under the new laws a dummy bidder caught in the act faces a fine of up to $24,000 if the real-estate agency is found to be involved the fine may top $60,000 dollars. But those in the industry say dummy bidding will be impossible to stamp out.
FRANK HELLIER, REAL ESTATE INSTITUTE OF VICTORIA: How are they going to determine a dummy bidder. Do they have the right to walk up to someone in the crowd and say, "what's your name? what is your address? And are you a dummy bidder for this particular property? I don't believe they can do that.
KERRI RITCHIE: With an average of 800 auctions taking place in Melbourne each Saturday Frank Hellier from the Real Estate Institute of Victoria says the Government's plan to employ eight inspectors to police the new laws is a joke.
JOHN LENDERS: They obviously don't cover every auction but they will be out there and as is the case with people randomly inspecting it puts a level of compliance on people and people are never certain and that changes behaviour.
KERRI RITCHIE: But Rodney Morley believes there is a simple solution.
RODNEY MORLEY: I think we are quite capable of regulating ourselves.
JEREMY GREEN: It's ridiculous. Of course they can't regulate themselves that is absurd.
WOMAN: There is no way you can buy a house now days the prices are just ridiculous and as far as I'm concerned the real estate agents do have something to do with it. If they didn't put dummy bidders in then the prices wouldn't be so high.
KERRI RITCHIE: But real estate agents say it's market forces that have sent house prices through the roof and they're not the only ones willing to bend the rules.
WOMAN: You have to be aware it is not just the estate agent trying to plump up the price it is also the person who is selling the property who will often say, "We want the earth for this property, get it", so what is he going to do.
FRANK HELLIER: The majority of sellers today do want too much for their property and they work the agents up against each other and you go in and give them a price and they say, "Oh no, the agent was in before you their price was higher, why is yours so low?" So the sellers they always want too much for their property.
RODNEY MORLEY: We get all sorts of tactics on the sellers side especially at auctions where they double bid and they withdraw bids and they ask bogus questions that are obviously ridiculous to put people off, it's all part of the game.
KERRI RITCHIE: The Government says the legislation will be in place by the end of the year but Jeremy Green isn't interested. He says his decision to sell privately is already bearing fruit.
JEREMY GREEN: I have had more response in the twice I've advertised that is less than two weeks, than I have in the entire 17 weeks I was with an agent, and a more positive response. There is no doubt in my mind you are better off selling your own house. What's the big deal? You sell a car what's the big deal it's a larger commodity, it shouldn't frighten people from doing it.

Medigap Insurance is not an substitute for standard Medicare like a Medicare Advantage Plan, instead it works side-by-side with standard Medicare.

Eagles of Death Metal
At this stage of its career, dismissing Eagles of Death Metal as an ironic classic-rock band is a grave mistake. Formed a decade ago in Palm Desert, California, EODM — fronted by ex-journalist Jesse "Boots Electric" Hughes, with Queens of the Stone Age's Josh "Babyduck" Homme on drums — lovingly honors the leering come-ons, sleazy riffs and gigantic drums of bygone arena-rock gods. Still, its sly subversions, like a cheeky revision of Stealers Wheel/Reservoir Dogs chestnut "Stuck in the Middle" into "Stuck in the Metal," and cheesy attire — Hughes sports the shades and 'stache of a hunky CHiPs extra — only add to the smirking fun. Most important, the duo's love for the ladies is genuine; the lyrics on 2006's Death by Sexy (is there a better way to perish?) are too goofy to be misogynistic, and the band describes forthcoming, Homme-produced new LP Heart On as an "in-depth celebrational study around women's contribution to rock and roll." That's a sentiment almost as sweet as Hughes's contribution to Denny's new "Rockstar Menus": heart-shaped pancakes with raspberry sauce, hot fudge, strawberries, white chocolate chips and whipped cream.

In the Studio with BMW's 1 Series M Coupe | SkiddMark
Last Thursday we spent a few hours up-close-and-personal with BMW's new 1 Series M Coupe, learning about it's design and features whilst trying to assess its credibility as BMW's new 'entry-level' M car. You can read the first of our reviews at http://www.skiddmark.com/2010/12/09/in-the-studio-with-bmws-1-series-m-coup e/ Suffice to say that we liked it, but in deciding how best to share this experience more widely, I decided to create a video to provide the buyers-eye view as you would find if you were taking a look in a showroom. For the video buffs among you the film was shot using a Canon HV20 and captured in 1920x1080 at 23.976 fps. The image was fed into a Mac G5, transcoded from .m2k to .mov using Cineform NeoScene which was also used to remove pulldown. Then Premiere and AfterEffects CS5 were used to edit and grade before exporting in H.264 format. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it. Music is by the awesome Greek duo, StrangeZero from their album 'Newborn Butterflies' and the track is called 'Ikebana'.
MotorWeek | Retro Review: '99 BMW M Coupe
Mmmm, Mmmm, good!
If The Shoe Fits, It Must Be A BMW M Coupe
"The times when I'm not bored is when I'm flying, when I'm flying my hang glider, when I'm racing the M Coupe—because all of a sudden the world moves up to my speed." Airline pilot Alex McCulloch is a great judge of what it means to travel quickly and effortlessly through the air, and so his choice of a BMW M Coupe is telling. "Someone said, life is racing and everything else is just waiting," McCulloch says, and after a short time with the M Coupe, he quickly realized he was going to have to bring the car to a track. "You cannot challenge yourself on public roads safely," he says. The rare BMW fits in nicely with one of his other obscure pursuits: cross-country, long-distance hang gliding, a sport that allows him to "be in a movie." Modified only in ways that allow him to put the car back to stock if needed, the car has been prepared for time trial events—where McCulloch is learning to be a faster driver. "I used to say it wanted to kill me, but now we've reached an agreement where it's not quite as murderous," he says. Drive Tastefully® http://Petrolicious.com http://facebook.com/Petrolicious

The first important figure tells us that there is less of this sex stuff going on than we thought. (Although a warning here: as far as I can tell onanism is not counted as sexual activity by the Penn State researchers.) Twenty per cent of respondents had not "had" sex in the previous year, while 5 per cent did it at least three times a week. Overall this led to a statistic revealing that, while 15 per cent of the people had 50 per cent of the sex, the remaining 85 per cent had to share the rest between them - the sort of figure one associates with grossly unequal and unfair societies.
So, if you are an American who is not having a lot of sex, someone somewhere is getting your share. One day, an observer might speculate, the sexually dispossessed will rise up and occupy the boudoirs of the over-privileged. The Peter Stringfellows of Muncie and Boise will be found, suspended from the lamp-posts by their ...
But hold on to that rope, for there is much more interesting material to come. A series of figures breaks down the types of people and groups within society who are most and least likely to have more than their fair ration of sex. And there are some surprises here. Those who work long hours report having sex more often, as do those who watch the largest amount of television. At a rate of 111 times per year, married couples under 29 do it more than singles of the same age (72), or older married couples (figure not given, but I suspect around the six mark).
Those with doctorates manage less houghmagandy than those with first degrees only, jazz enthusiasts more than rock music lovers, Catholics a weeny bit more than Protestants but 20 per cent less than agnostics or Jews. Smokers do it 10 per cent more than the average, drinkers 20 per cent more, and those who both drink and smoke claim to have twice as much. In a final twist, everyone claims to have more sex during periods when confidence in the presidency is generally low.
Now, we are entitled to ask some questions about these results. It may well be, for instance, that drinkers simply think they've had more sex than they actually have, or that heavy smokers are forced - by their shortness of breath - to count things as being sex which the rest of us don't. Baths and suchlike.
But once we have dealt with any obvious anomalies, we must move on to explanations. And this is where we are forced to consider the difference between correlation and cause. Is it the fact of one's occupation or religion or musical preferences that determines one's sexual behaviour? Or is there just a correlation, which is actually caused by the general characteristics that led to some of these choices in the first place?
The significance of this question cannot be overstated. Theoretically, the person most likely to have the most sex is a twentysomething, married, Republican Jew with religious doubts, who works long hours, failed his or her doctorate and sits in front of the TV watching the Jazz station all evening, chain-smoking and boozing.
Now suppose that you are a teenage American who wishes, during his or her lifetime, to experience the optimum level of carnality. Were you to believe that these statistics indicated clear causal (as opposed to correlative) relationships, you would now begin to take action. If you were a goy you would go through the process of conversion to Judaism as soon as was practicable. And once converted, you would stand outside the synagogue on Saturday muttering, "I'm just not sure, Lord!" You would take up smoking at once, and force yourself to drink copious amounts of alcohol until you were fully acclimatised.
As soon as you came home from work or studies - which would be very late - you would flop down in front of the box, taking this opportunity to catch up on the cigarettes and drinks denied you during the day. In the car you would, at all times, play contemporary jazz tapes while complaining loudly about how Bill Clinton is sending the country to hell in a handcart.
When we scrutinise such an itinerary, it does not seem - on the face of it - to be one that holds out the promise of many long nights of writhing physical pleasure. Far from it. Personally, I would not want to sleep with such a person.
So I'd draw one of two very different conclusions from the above scenario. The first is that two surveys have become mixed up and misattributed in the Penn State computer - one on the amount of sexual activity undertaken, and the other on the incidence of early death from heart failure.
The other conclusion is that what we have here is merely a set of random correlations, and that we still have no idea what it all means. Which brings us back, I'm sure you will agree, to the Welfare debate.Reuse content

... screen set up in the dining area, so an early wake up for that. It was going to be 4am but then unknown to us, Fiji-time is jumping forward one hour tonight, so we'll be the same time as NZ.The weather says showers and thunderstorms for the next few days, so we're hoping it eases off a little for tomorrow when we set out on the boat to Manta Ray Resort – I'm not ready to give up the sunshine just yet! ...

All three of the couples had been travelling for at least 3-4 months before coming to Fiji so they talked a lot about where they'd been on their travels. We felt a bit like amateurs, didn't have much to contribute, but I guess our adventure is just starting. They had all either been to New Zealand or were off there next and it was ...

6 Creative Uses for Flowerpots
Create a firewood container
Who needs an expensive metal or brass rack to hold firewood by the fireplace? Spare yourself the expense and put an extra-large empty ceramic or clay flowerpot beside the hearth. It's a perfect — and cheap — place to keep kindling and small logs ready for when the weather outside gets frightful.
Unfurl yarn knot-free
That sweater you're knitting will take forever if you're constantly stopping to pull out tangles in the yarn. To prevent this, place your ball of yarn under an upturned flowerpot and thread the end through the drain hole. Set it next to where you are sitting for more pleasurable purling.
Create an aquarium fish cave
Some fish love to lurk in shadowy corners of their home aquariums, keeping themselves safe from imagined predators. Place a mini flowerpot on its side on the aquarium floor to create a hideaway cave.
Kill fire ants
If fire ants plague your yard or patio and you're tired of getting stung by the tiny attackers, a flowerpot can help you quench the problem. Place the flowerpot upside down over the anthill. Pour boiling water through the drain hole and you'll be burning down their house.
Help container plant roots
The plants that you want to put in that beautiful new deep container you ordered for your patio have a shallow root system, and you don't want to go to the bother — and expense — of filling that huge container completely with potting soil. What do you do? When planting shallow-rooted plants in a deep container, one easy solution is to find another smaller flowerpot that will fit upside down in the base of the deeper pot and occupy a lot of that space. After you insert it, fill around it with soil before putting in your plants.
Keep soil in your flowerpot
Soil from your houseplant won't slip-slide away if you place broken clay flowerpot shards in the bottom of the pot before re-planting. When watering your plants, you'll find that the water drains out, but not the soil.
Thanks! You're on our list.
And your life's about to get more interesting.
Some people like to travel by train because it combines the slowness of a car with the cramped public exposure of an airplane.

I think my pilot was a little inexperienced. We were sitting on the runway, and he said, "OK, folks, we're gonna be taking off in a just few—whoa! Here we go."

The broad, long-term objectives of this research are the developments of new statistical methodology for the analysis of survival data from both epidemiological studies and clinical trials. Significant progress has been made in statistical modeling and inference in survival data analysis;however, there are still many open questions and emerging challenges posed by new study designs, advanced technologies, as well as the growing scale and complexity of medical studies. In this proposed research, we will explore two general classes of semiparametric models, the transformation model and the accelerated failure time model, for analyzing complex survival data. These models not only are complements to Cox's proportional hazards model, but also provide general regression frameworks and possibly better strategies for modeling survival data. Thus, they play important roles in many biomedical applications by offering comprehensive survival analysis. We seek to develop statistically sound methods that not only make proper use of data information and structure but also are powerful and computationally efficient. Motivated by problems arising from the investigators'collaborative work on the New York University Women's Health Study (NYUWHS) and the Health Effects of Arsenic Longitudinal Study (HEALS), our methodology developments include the following four specific aims: (1.) To explore a broad class of linear transformation models in nested case-control (NCC) studies;(2.) To investigate efficient estimation of the accelerated failure time (AFT) model in case-cohort (CC) and nested case-control studies through a unified likelihood-based approach;(3.) To develop semiparametric Bayesian inference methods for the AFT cure model for the analysis of survival data from cohort studies or clinical trials in an admixture population with susceptible and non-susceptible (cured) subjects;(4.) To study partially linear regression modeling and the associated inference procedures for censored survival data from cohort studies or clinical trials. Results from the proposed project will be relevant and applicable to many biomedical studies. In all the specific aims, we will study the theoretical properties of the proposed estimators, and develop reliable numerical algorithms for implementing the proposed estimation methods. Special effort will also be devoted to developing and disseminating software for practitioners. We will carry out extensive simulation studies to evaluate relevance of the theory and the finite sample performance of the proposed estimators. We will also investigate the performance of the proposed methods on published datasets, compare them with existing approaches and demonstrate their applications in major clinical and epidemiological studies, including the NYUWHS and the HEALS. 1
The proposed research aims to develop novel statistical approaches for analyzing survival data under various study designs, from admixed populations, and with complex covariates effects. The completion of our proposed research will provide reliable and efficient statistical methods for complex survival data that are commonly encountered in clinical and epidemiological studies. These methods can facilitate scientists'understanding of etiology of complex diseases and eventually lead to better design of disease prevention, prognosis and treatment strategies to improve human health. 1

Very dissapointed. No open world PVP what so ever. Mini games are cool ye they are only designed to enhance PVE. I am not happy. Attempting to cancel - this could be rough....

Ummmm What?!?!!?
(DISCLAIMER - The use of the word YOU in the above post is not directed at any one person in particular, but towards those who fall into the category itself - there is no personal attack here, neither intentional nor implied.)
As you say in your sig, life is a competetion.
It's been known over a year that this game was not going to be a pvp sandbox. If you want good large pvp, Planetside 2 is the only one in future. Also, if you want sandbox pvp, there's Archeage and the Repopulation. I'm waiting for all 3 myself, but Funcom never once stated this game was going to be what you wanted. Sorry.

So, you want to make us believe that you didn't pick up one of those gazillion beta keys and gave the game a spin? That you didn't read up on it and what the game is about/like?
Instead you just bought the box, activated it and are now crying that it is not what YOU were expecting?
Sorry son, but that is just plain dumb!
I know, I know, those beta test are meant to be test tools for the developers to check their game... yeah, sure ;-)
They are marketing tools, demos, trials or at least I use them that way. And when I see that a game doesn't offer what I'm looking for I stay away from the game.
So, frankly, don't blame anybody but yourself for f***ing this one up. ;-)

A better question is why did he pre-order but not play the beta weekends or appear to know anything about the game.
