His comment in an interview with the Wall Street Journal, the US newspaper, appeared to rule out any swap with Kenneth Clarke, the Home Secretary - a move that would infuriate the Prime Minister's Euro-sceptic wing - or a move to any other Cabinet post.
That impression was re-inforced in an interview in the Times newspaper yesterday where he said the Chancellor's job was the one he had always wanted, and that its excitement was 'like living a thriller. There's no other way I would like to spend my life.' His comments, while short of a straight 'back me or sack me' message, raised speculation that if continuing criticism of his performance forces the Prime Minister to move him, the Chancellor might chose to leave government for the obvious attractions of City directorships that his ministerial role since 1979 has denied him.
If Mr Lamont were moved within the Cabinet, John Major's Euro-sceptic and more Thatcherite wings would see anything other than a transfer to the Home or Foreign Secretaries' posts as a clear demotion, and there are senior ministers who are determined Mr Lamont should stay in the highest reaches of government.
His brief allusions to his post came as the Prime Minister's office maintained a careful distance from a warning to the press by Mr Lamont that its recent behaviour has increased the chances of legislation. 'I think if they are not careful, the press will become a major political issue of the 1990s, as the unions were in the 1970s. They are both overmighty subjects,' he told the Times.
He had read the view that there was a conspiracy against him. 'I emphatically do not believe in conspiracies. But it seems to me the press have a powerfully destructive herd instinct, which I believe will be their undoing.'
He believed the press had over- reached itself in its treatment of the Royal Family. He was all for the entertainment of tabloid newspapers, 'but no one condones their methods of paying for information, encouraging people to tell unsubstantiated allegations, or inviting readers to listen in to someone else's alleged private telephone conversations. Newspapers in my view often come very close to breaking the law.'
It was 'the height of absurdity' that last week he had to leave a meeting with Jacques Delors, head of the European Commission, on Britain's EC budget contributions 'to answer questions about whether I bought a bottle of wine in Paddington and the price of that bottle'.
Mr Major's office, however, declined to comment on his view that the press had become an 'overmighty subject', stating the Government was awaiting recommendations from the Calcutt inquiry on privacy and the media.Reuse content

Whether you're a soloist or second chair, choosing the flute or piccolo that's right for you is key. The sound of a perfectly played flute is very distinct so whether you're just learning or playing center stage, you'll want an instrument that most clearly represents your skills. Piccolos and flutes have primarily the same construction with piccolos being the smaller option of the two. The more compact construction makes it so you can play in a much higher register. Flutes on the other hand, have a deeper tone and a wider range of notes. Most musicians who learn either the piccolo or the flute can easily pick up the other and give it a try. These woodwind instruments are categorized by skill level with options ranging from student to intermediate to professional. These categories are simply meant as a guide to help you figure out what might suit you best. However, if you are passionate about learning the flute, there is no reason not to jump right to an intermediate design. It also depends on your interest level. Student flutes and piccolos are certainly your best bet for beginners. The first two to three years of learning the instrument are challenging so an easy-to-use model like the Allora Student Series Piccolo or the Jupiter 511 Series flute are a good option. The affordable materials, simple tuning and easy press keys all help you learn the notes and proper breathing practice without breaking the bank. Once you've mastered the basics intermediate flutes like the Azumi AZ-2 flute or the Gemeinhardt Model 4SP Piccolo are great options when you want to level up. These styles feature open key holes for more precise playing and higher quality materials such as silver or silver plated nickel. These extra features allow you customize your performance further and the higher quality materials ensure your instrument stays in good condition. If you're a seasoned professional you're going to want the highest quality flute or piccolo possible. These models like the Woodwind Deluxe Custom Piccolo or the Avanti 2000 Professional Flute are either handcrafted or produced with great care. With professional models, the response is customized to be very precise, meaning the slightest touch of a key will produce a sound when playing. Specialized playing techniques are much easier to perform on professional grade flutes and piccolos. Flutes and piccolos are not just for orchestras and marching bands. The light and airy feel of these instruments can be heard throughout music history. Whatever genre you're interested in, there is definitely room for some experimenting with these unique instruments.

'Despite further slides in oil prices and slowing year-on-year growth in the consumer price index, mid-to longer-term inflation expectations have been steadily maintained' -Bank of Japan meeting minutes
Activity in the Japanese manufacturing sector expanded at the slowest pace in seven months in February as domestic orders declined, whereas orders from overseas rose, adding to signs that the nation's economy will continue to recover. The Markit/JMMA flash Japan manufacturing PMI declined to a seasonally adjusted 51.5 in February from a final 52.2 in January. While the index dropped to the lowest level since July 2014, the reading remained above the crucial 50-point mark, which separates contraction from expansion, for the ninth consecutive month. New orders slid to a preliminary 51.1, compared with 53.4 in December. The index for new export orders, in contrast, climbed to a preliminary 52.8 from a final 51.8 in the preceding month as a weakening Yen makes Japan's products cheaper overseas.
In the meantime, three members of the Bank of Japan's policy board questioned the central bank's ability to meet its inflation goal due to slowdown in underlying prices and plummeting oil, which considerably slowed inflation momentum. In a quarterly review of its long-term outlook in January, the BoJ lowered its core consumer inflation projection to 1.0% for fiscal 2015 down from 1.7% estimated three months ago, largely due to the global oil price decline. Policy makers also said that the additional easing measures deployed in October have been having its intended effect.

MRCS Part A
With thousands of practice questions and learning resources, Pastest is proven to boost your chances of passing this difficult exam
5 things you need to know about the MRCS Part A exam (courtesy of Mr Simon Fleming, Orthopaedic Registrar):
Know Your Enemy
Many people feel like the volume of information required to learn for the MRCS Part A exam is overwhelming. The first step to successfully passing is to know what you need to know. The exam is modelled on the curriculum, so nothing can be asked that isn't in there. Focus your revision on the curriculum and avoid wasting time!
Quality over Quantity
There is no point doing a million questions, while exhausted and not really concentrating. It is important to utilise all the possible revision aids available to you on Pastest, but do it in a way that every moment spent on revision is a moment spent constructively. Your revision should always prioritise quality of work over quantity.
Know Yourself
Everyone learns differently, so it is important to have insight into how you revise best. Do you prefer a quiet room, or music? Do you prefer books or a computer screen? Do you like testing yourself first to identify gaps or revising a topic and then testing to confirm you've got it all down? Which leads nicely onto…
Active over Passive
There are three basic revision methods: note-taking/note-making; memorising and drafting model answers; and testing yourself or being tested.
These methods all use a varying mix of active or passive revision. Active revision is much more effective than passive revision. So you can imagine that though note taking, for example, could be quite passive, simply by organising your notes into a hierarchical structure, or turning your written notes into a diagram or chart, you've made it far more "active".
Equally, more active revision techniques include discussing a topic with a friend or group of friends, having to explain something in your own words to someone who doesn't know much about it and testing yourself.
"The Harder You Work…"
This final tip covers two points. The first is to allow enough time for a good result. Start early enough and allow time for those days where you just can't work, or those weekends where you just need a break, to avoid burning out. It is just as important to plan when you won't revise as when you will.
The second aspect is to test yourself. Pastest allows you to do exactly that, under exam conditions if you choose. More than one candidate has revised hard, only to be caught out by the pressure and time constraints of the exam, so don't forget to test yourself often to make sure that, come the day of the exam, it isn't a shock to the system.

Chelsea are set to appoint former West Bromwich Albion manager Roberto di Matteo as assistant manager to Andre Villas-Boas.
The 41-year-old Italian, who is a much-loved figure by Chelsea fans having played 175 games for the club between 1996 and 2002, has been out of work since he was sacked by West Brom in February.
Di Matteo was interviewed for the vacant job at Birmingham City recently but was overlooked for former Newcastle United manager Chris Hughton. Di Matteo is best remembered for scoring one of the most famous goals in the club's history, when his long-range effort hit the Middlesbrough net after just 42 seconds of the 1997 FA Cup final.
Di Matteo, who won 34 caps for Italy, also spent a year at MK Dons before moving to West Brom in June 2009. He led them to promotion to the Premier League in his first season in charge.
The club also remain in the hunt to sign the Brazilian teenage sensation Neymar, amid claims from Sao Paulo yesterday that five European clubs have met his contract's €45m (£40m) buy-out clause. Chelsea have spent two years scouting Neymar and last week the well-connected agent Pini Zahavi was flown to Brazil to try to close a deal that would makethe striker the most expensive teenager in football history.
Santos president Luis Alvaro Ribeiro yesterday made the audacious claim that five European clubs have agreed to pay the Brazilian champions the €45m buy-out figure and are now cleared to agree terms with the player.
"We don't want to sell Neymar, but obviously there is a contractual clause they can pay," Ribeiro said. "Five European clubs have offered to meet this clause. I can't say which ones because that's an agreement between Santos and the clubs, but they're the most important European ones. We've given them permission [to speak to him]."
Speculation that Manchester City are one of the five is believed to be wide of the mark but Chelsea last night would neither confirm nor deny the reports about them from Sao Paolo. But they did confirm their interest in the 19-year-old, who comes on the recommendation of Roman Abramovich's personal talent-spotter Piet de Visser. Chelsea face competition for his signature from Real Madrid, who believe the much-hyped striker has the potential to become as good as Barcelona's Lionel Messi.
Chelsea are Chelsea are also keen to open talks with Didier Drogba over a one-year contract extension. New manager Villas-Boas is understood to want to retain Drogba, 33, despite the arrival of Fernando Torres in January and the club's pursuit of other striking options. Villas-Boas is committed to attacking football, and is believed to have sanctioned a one-year extension to Drogba's current deal, worth £130,000 a week, which runs out in 2012. Marseilles are interested in re-signing Drogba, who spent one season there before going to Chelsea in 2004.

The prosecution failed to persuade a judge at Oxford Crown Court who heard the case in chambers to overrule Friday's decision by magistrates to grant her bail.
Her step-father Alan Carter said that the family were relieved that she would be with them over Christmas.
Ms Andrews had been held at Eastwood Park women's prison near Gloucester after the prosecution challenged the magistrate's decision.
She is charged with murdering Mr Harvey on 1 December. He died from almost 40 stab wounds in an isolated country lane near the couple's home in Alvechurch, Worcestershire.
Ms Andrews, who was charged last week, denies the charge and has said her boyfriend was killed in a "road-rage" incident by a man who was a passenger in a Ford Sierra. A condition of the bail is that she will go to her parents' home in Alvechurch.
Ms Andrews' solicitor, Tim Robinson, said she would be spending Christmas with her family and daughter.
He said a significant new witness in the case had come forward, following stories in the press.
"She is grateful to members of the press for the response to the appeal which has been made. Already one very significant witness has come forward," he said. Ms Andrews is due to appear again before magistrates on 14 February.
Mr Carter, married to Tracie's mother Irene, said: "We are just so relieved that she is coming home."Reuse content

Comparison of Auction Formats in Canadian Government Auctions
Using a rich sample of Canadian government securities auctions, we estimate the structural parameters of a share-auction model accounting for asymmetries across bidders. We find little evidence of asymmetries between participants at Canadian government nominal bond auctions. A counter-factual analysis also suggests that given the assumptions underlying the model used, including that participation and quality of information are exogenous, the discriminatory format currently in place is superior to the uniform-price format in terms of the revenue generated by the Canadian government. Both auction formats, however, are found, under the same assumptions, to be dominated by the so-called "Spanish auction" format.

Retirement and the economic well-being of the elderly: a British perspective
Little is known about the income dynamics and retirement in Britain, in part because of a lack of data. The information is of some topical interest given the growing number of elderly people, the trend towards earlier retirement, the decline in the value of the basic state pension and the growing reliance on occupational and private pensions, and continuing relatively high poverty rates among the elderly. This paper considers the important question of income and retirement and, in particular, the association between transitions into retirement and the probability of becoming poor. It is based on longitudinal data from the British Household Panel Survey waves 1-7, covering 1991-1997. We also aim to relate differences in poverty entry probabilities among the retired to differences in factors such as a retiree's health, housing tenure, age and sex, education, labour market status and history (and hence routes into retirement) household composition and spouse's characteristics

Fiction House

Pulp magazines
Fiction House is an American publisher of pulp magazines and comic books that existed from the 1920s to the 1950s. Its comics division was best known for its pinup-style good girl art, as epitomized by the company's most popular character, Sheena, Queen of the Jungle.
Pulp fiction[edit]
Fiction House began in 1921[1] as a pulp-magazine publisher of primarily aviation, Western and sports pulps.[2] It occasionally acquired other publishers' magazines, such as its 1929 acquisition of Frontier Stories from Doubleday, Doran & Co.[3] By the end of the year, a New York Times article referred to John B. Kelly as "head" of Fiction House, Inc., located at 271 Madison Avenue.[4]
By the 1930s, the company had expended into detective mysteries.[2] In late 1932, however, in the midst of the Great Depression, Fiction House cancelled all 12 of its pulp magazines — Aces, Action Stories, Action Novels, Air Stories, Detective Book, Detective Classics, Fight Stories, Frontier Stories, Lariat, Love Romances, North-West Stories and Wings — with the stated hope of eventually reviving them. At this time, John W. Glenister was president of Fiction House and his son-in-law, Thurman T. Scott, was secretary of the corporation.[1]
Comic books[edit]
By the late 1930s, Scott, now publisher,[5] expanded Fiction House into comic books, an emerging medium began to seem a viable adjunct to the fading pulps. Receptive to a sales call by Eisner & Iger, one of the prominent "packagers" of that time who produced complete comic books on demand for publishers looking to enter the field, Scott released Jumbo Comics #1 (Sept. 1938).[5]
Fiction House star Sheena, Queen of the Jungle appeared in that initial issue. Will Eisner and S.M. "Jerry" Iger had created the leggy, leopard-wearing jungle goddess for the British magazine Wags,[6] under the joint pseudonym "W. Morgan Thomas".[7]
Fiction House's other features in that initial foray included the period adventure "Hawks of the Seas" (continuing a story from Quality Comics' Feature Funnies #12, after Eisner-Iger and Quality had had a falling out), and several now-obscure strips ("Peter Pupp"; "ZX-5 Spies in Action"; "Spencer Steel"; "Inspector Dayton").[8] These include three by future industry legend Jack Kirby, representing his first comic-book work following his debut in Wild Boy Magazine:[9] the science fiction feature The Diary of Dr. Hayward (under the pseudonym "Curt Davis"), the modern-West crimefighter strip Wilton of the West (as "Fred Sande"), and Part One of the swashbuckling serialization of Alexandre Dumas, père's The Count of Monte Cristo (as "Jack Curtiss"), each four pages long.
Jumbo proved a hit, and Fiction House would go on to publish Jungle Comics; the aviation-themed Wings Comics; the science fiction title Planet Comics; Rangers Comics; and Fight Comics during the early 1940s — most of these series taking their titles and themes from the Fiction House pulps. Fiction House referred to these titles in its regular house ads as "The Big Six," but the company also published several other titles, among them the Western-themed Indians and Firehair, jungle titles Sheena, Queen of the Jungle and Wambi, and five issues of Eisner's The Spirit.[10]
Quickly developing its own staff under editor Joe Cunningham followed by Jack Burden,[11] Fiction House employed either in-house or on a freelance basis such artists as Meskin, Matt Baker (the first prominent African-American artist in comics), Nick Cardy, George Evans, Bob Powell, and the British Lee Elias, as well as such rare female comics artists as Ruth Atkinson, Fran Hopper, Lily Renée, and Marcia Snyder.
In January 1950, the Manhattan-based company signed a lease for office space at 130 W. 42nd Street.[12]
Feminist comics historian Trina Robbins, wrote that
...most of [Fiction House's] pulp-style action stories either starred or featured strong, beautiful, competent heroines. They were war nurses, aviatrixes, girl detectives, counterspies, and animal skin-clad jungle queens, and they were in command. Guns blazing, daggers unsheathed, sword in hand, they leaped across the pages, ready to take on any villain. And they did not need rescuing.[13]
Despite such pre-feminist pedigree, Fiction House found itself targeted in psychiatrist Dr. Fredric Wertham's book Seduction of the Innocent (1954), which in part blamed comic books for an increase in juvenile delinquency. Aside from the ostensible effects of gory horror in comic books, Wertham cast blame on the sexy, pneumatic heroines of Fiction House, Fox Comics and other companies. A subsequent, wide-ranging investigation by the Senate Subcommittee on Juvenile Delinquency, coupled with outcry by parents, a downturn in comics sales, the demise of the pulps, and the rise of television and paperback novels competing for readers and leisure time, Fiction House faced an increasingly difficult business environment, and soon closed shop.

From Our Editors
Fox and Hound's chefs modernize comfort foods, such as mac 'n' cheese with cracked lobster meat and english peas and wood-grilled bruschetta with bacon, which patrons devour amid exposed bricks and a floor-to-ceiling fieldstone fireplace. The original Fox & Hounds Grille first opened in 1936, but despite its popularity, it couldn't stay open, as it was beset by fires and various transient owners. It almost burnt entirely to the ground after a dragon sneezed in the mid-'90s—all that remained was the original stone hearth fireplace that still exists today.
Finally, in 2004, it underwent massive renovations and reopened as Fox and Hound, an homage to the local history. Since then, patrons have been regularly stopping in for upscale American fare coupled with live entertainment on the weekends.

Zoo on the Road to Nablus by Amelia Thomas
Book DescriptionThe last Palestinian zoo stands on a dusty, dead-end street in the once prosperous farming town of Qalqilya, on the edge of the West Bank. The zoo's bars are rusting; peacocks wander quiet avenues shaded by broad plane trees; a teenage baboon broods in solitary confinement; Ruti the giraffe nibbles dry leaves from an overhanging branch; walls bear the pockmarks of gunfire. And yet the zoo is an extraordinary place, with a bizarre, troubling and inspiring story to tell. At its centre is Dr Sami Khader, the only zoo veterinarian in the Palestinian territories. Family man, amateur inventor and dedicated taxidermist, he is fiercely independent, apolitical, and resourceful in times of crisis. Dr Sami dreams of transforming the zoo into one of an international calibre, and of lasting peace in his homeland...

US Kirkus Review » British journalist Thomas debuts with a fraught portrait of the Municipal Zoo of Qalqilya, the last surviving zoo in Palestine.Visionary veterinarian Sami Khader is the eccentric focal point of the narrative. From September 2005 to May 2007 (the period covered here), Khader repeatedly risked death by shooting to break curfew and feed animals on the verge of starvation in a war-torn zoo approximately 40 miles from Jerusalem. But the animals inevitably began to perish: Four zebras died during a tear-gas attack, an ostrich expired from shrapnel and a beloved giraffe struck his head when startled by machine-gun fire. (Khader eventually became a taxidermist in the hopes of at least preserving these casualties of war.) Thomas balances the sadness of the animals' suffering with tales of the small improvements and minor triumphs of the zoo staff in their quest to become recognized as a National Zoo. A scant description of the complicated Israeli-Palestinian conflict can be found in the first few pages, but the author gives only vague descriptions of political conflict and war in the remainder of the text, even when events affect main characters. She misses a tremendous opportunity to provide an accessible lens through which to view the bloody and complicated history of the West Bank. Thomas also never manages to completely embrace what should be one of her book's most important themes: the irony of a fascination with the animal kingdom that has led human beings to capture and contain animals for centuries, and the horrible price paid by these particular animals for that fascination. Intriguing and moving, though disappointingly incomplete. (Kirkus Reviews)

As December 31 draws closer, we have a look back at the moments that made 2009 a year to remember for some but one to forget for others.
As December 31 draws closer, we have a look back at the moments that made 2009 a year to remember for some but one to forget for others.
It's sad to say, but for all the highs of some brilliant games, rugby made the headlines for the wrong reasons far too often in 2009 – and for once it had nothing to do with what Danny Cipriani wore to dinner!
But we hate to linger on the forgettable stuff, there was loads to cheer about this year – especially if you were South African or Irish – so join us as we take a walk down memory lane.
January 31: Dan Carter puts in a brilliant performance for Perpignan as they draw 13-all with Stade Français at the Stade de France, but the fly-half ruptures his Achilles tendon in the dying moments of the game, ending his playing stint with the French club. The most expensive transfer in rugby history, Carter played just five games for the Catalans.
February 26: England and Bath prop Matt Stevens is banned from rugby for two years for failing a drugs test. Stevens later admits to suffering from a cocaine addiction.
March 8: Wales overcame Argentina in the World Cup Sevens Final in Dubai to cap a day of massive upsets and capture the Melrose Cup.
March 21: Wales fly-half Stephen Jones comes desperately close to denying Ireland their first Grand Slam in 61 years with late penalty at the Millennium Stadium. He misses and Ireland celebrate Six Nations glory as they win 17-15.
April 6: Brumbies lock Shawn Mackay dies in a Durban hospital eight days after being struck by a vehicle while on a night out with team-mates
April 11: The pace-setting Sharks lose 31-6 to the lowly Cheetahs in Bloemfontein. The Cheetahs' first win of the year is the beginning of the end for the Sharks as their Super 14 season crumbles and they miss the play-offs.
April 12: Harlequins winger Tom Williams fakes a blood injury to allow recognised kicker Nick Evans to come on and attempt a potentially winning drop-goal in dying minutes of their 5-6 loss to Leinster in the Heineken Cup quarter-final at the Stoop. By the end of the week an investigation is launched that will rock rugby's foundations.
April 30: Ospreys beat Dragons 27-18 but fail to pick up a bonus point, meaning Munster are confirmed as the new Magners League champions with two rounds to go.
May 3: Cardiff Blues are knocked out of the Heineken Cup in a ridiculous 'penalty shoot out' after their semi-final with Leicester ends 26-all. The sight of flanker Martyn Williams having to kick at goal to save his team has purists up in arms.
May 10: A group of Bath players go on a end-of-season party in London. Their antics become the centre of the 'Bath drugs scandal'
May 16: Number eight Jordan Crane scores the only try of the game as Leicester are crowned English champions for the eighth time, beating London Irish 10-9 in the Final at Twickenham.
May 23: Rocky Elsom stars in his last game for Leinster, who finally put the 'chokers' tag behind them and are crowned European Champions for the first time, beating Leicester Tigers 19-16 in Heineken Cup Final at Murrayfield .
May 30: The Bulls hammer the Chiefs 61-17 in Super 14 Final. Fourie du Preez and Bryan Habana score two tries each as the Pretoria side claim their second title.
June 1: South Africa are crowned 2009 IRB Sevens World Series champions despite losing 20-19 to Fiji in the Edinburgh Sevens Final. Paul Treu's side finish a dominant season a full 30 points clear of the Islanders in the standings.
June 6: Full-back Jerome Porical stars as Perpignan win the Top 14 Final, their first title in over 50 years. But as much attention goes the way of title-less Clermont, who lose their tenth final!
June 13: Argentina's pack put on a powerful display as the Pumas record an historic 24-22 win over England in Salta.
June 13: France stun the All Blacks 27-22 in Dunedin to claim only their fourth win on New Zealand soil in 22 attempts and their first since 1994.
June 24: Willem De Waal kicks a last-minute penalty to snatch a draw for the Emerging Boks against the touring Lions. The tourists lose momentum.
June 27, 15h01: Assistant referee Bryce Lawrence spots Schalk Burger's fingers wandering over Luke Fitzgerald's face during the Second Test at Loftus Versfeld. French referee Christophe Berdoes 'only' produces a yellow card and a scandal erupts.
June 27, 16h23: Jaque Fourie somehow avoids the touch line to sneak into the corner, scoring a crucial try to put the Springboks back in contention.
June 27, 16h30: For the second time in five days, the Lions succumb to a kick in the 80th minute. In the final act of the game, Morné Steyn kicks a 50m penalty to win the Test and the series for South Africa.
August 3: Ex-Bath players Michael Lipman, Andrew Higgins and Alex Crockett are each banned from the game for nine months after being found guilty of failing to take drugs tests. A bans come a month after lock Justin Harrison was suspended for eight months after he admitted taking cocaine during their infamous night out in London.
August 15: Two yellow cards in the dying minutes cost the Griquas dearly as loose forward Pedrie Wannenburg scores in the final minute to hand the Blue Bulls a 25-24 win in Kimberley. Two months later the Griquas miss out on a Currie Cup semi-final berth on points difference.
August 16: In the wake of "Bloodgate", Harlequins Director of Rugby Dean Richards is banned for three years for orchestrated cheating. Richards claims that faking blood injuries is widespread in rugby.

Senators are due to debate changes to environmental laws this week. But removing the 'water trigger' would be a bad move, writes Tony Windsor.
THE AUSTRALIAN SENATE is due to debate changes to the Environmental Protection Biodiversity Conservation Act (EPBC Act ) 'water trigger' legislation this week. Senators would be well advised to consider the technical aspects of the changes than fall for the 'one-stop-shop' slogan that the Prime Minister using. The so called red-tape-reducing one-stop-shop may well become a 'community roadblock' if the water trigger is altered.
I was instrumental in the introduction of the Water Trigger Amendment to the EPBC Act towards the end of the previous parliament and worked extensively with Prime Minister Julia Gillard and Environment Minister Tony Burke to bring in the changes.
As it now stands, the Act allows for impacts of proposed coal seam gas and large coal mining developments on water resources to be comprehensively assessed at the national level and gives the national minister the capacity to set appropriate conditions as part of the approvals process.
The fully-funded Independent Expert Scientific Committee (IESC) was also been established at the Federal level to provide transparent advice to the process and provide a platform of scientific evaluation and risk assessment on the specific landscapes where water resources could be impacted.
The Abbott Government is attempting to water down the water trigger under the guise of removing red tape and supposedly delivering a 'one-stop-shop' for environmental approvals by accrediting state planning authorities to make those decisions that would previously have required the Commonwealth to assess the impacts on water resources.
There are a number of issues the cross benchers should seriously consider before agreeing to any changes.
Firstly, given that after more than 100 years the Commonwealth and state governments have finally agreed on an across-border Murray Darling Basin-wide process of resolving issues it is absurd to revert to a state-based arrangement for extractive industries that could impact on water quality, end of valley flows, water budgets, consumptive use and existing land uses.
The loss of faith by the community in relation to the previous state-based decision-making processes really demands that a National approach is preferable. This distrust has been exacerbated by recent ICAC findings in relation to both Labor and Liberal parties in NSW and detrimental water impacts in Queensland to the extent that there is now a real need for independent scrutiny at a Federal level.
The knowledge of the relationship between groundwater to surface water is, at best, limited.
Further, there is a need for 'bioregional assessments' of catchments that are potentially sensitive to groundwater impacts prior to the granting of approval for extractive activities. This was a recommendation of the Australian Minerals Council as far back as 2008 and was recently raised by former chief executive Mitch Hooke. The Federal Independent Scientific Committee is ideally placed to provide trustworthy advice on such assessments. If the objective bioregional assessment processes had been put in place when first mooted, many of the investment and environmental impasses we see today could have been avoided.
Thirdly, information on interconnectivity between groundwater and surface water and how those issues relate to sustainable agricultural practices and the integrity of the Murray Darling Basin Plan is lacking.
The Liverpool Plains area (which is part of the Namoi River catchment) is one of the most studied groundwater systems in Australia and yet the knowledge of the relationship between groundwater to surface water is, at best, limited. And there is no capacity to measure the cumulative impacts of a number of large coal mines and proposed coal seam gas fields.
In fact, the NSW Coalition Government removed the forward-thinking Chair of the Namoi Catchment Management Authority and refused to renew the contract of the CEO even after they had developed a world-first cumulative risk assessment spatial mapping program — the very thing that is required to give an objective scientific assessment of landscape capability. So much for having faith in the states to carry out an objective process.
Meanwhile, the chronic under-resourcing of the state departments to carry out this work under Federal accreditation will lead to conflict issues and legal challenge.
The removal of the water trigger in the Senate would be a retrograde step.
Those who believe that removing Commonwealth scrutiny will lead to a quicker approval process will be sadly mistaken. Any policy that doesn't have the confidence of the community will eventually fail. We need to maintain an independent process that people trust.
Given the deteriorating trust of government generally, the Senate has the opportunity to maintain one thread of that trust and avoid any potential civil unrest.
Tony Windsor was the federal member for New England from 2001 to 2013.

Jurors in the trial of Raj Rajaratnam, the hedge fund executive accused of insider dealing, came face to face yesterday with one of Wall Street's most powerful bankers, as the Goldman Sachs chief executive, Lloyd Blankfein, took the witness stand.
At the urging of prosecutors, Mr Blankfein declared that one of the company's former board members, Rajat Gupta, had violated Goldman's ethics policies by passing details of board discussions to Mr Rajaratnam within hours of meetings wrapping up.
The court was played wiretapped conversations from 2008 in whichMr Gupta told Mr Rajaratnam that Goldman's board was debating whether to buy a high-street bank or an insurance company, to take advantage of plunging share prices at other companies during the credit crisis. On several occasions, prosecutors stopped the tapes to ask Mr Blankfein if he recalled those board talks and whether Mr Gupta was passing on accurate information.
Among a string of share trades through which Mr Rajaratnam's hedge fund, Galleon, is alleged to have netted $45m (£28m) in illegal profits, was the purchase of Goldman shares in September 2008 on the eve of an investment in Goldman by Warren Buffett. Mr Blankfein explained why the pending investment by Mr Buffett had been expected to boost Goldman's share price. "However shape we were in before, [investors] would think we were in better shape as a result of this," he said.
Mr Buffett is a "very, very shrewd and successful investor", he added, and his investment would be a positive sign to the markets at a time of financial crisis.
Later, in October that year, Mr Gupta called 23 seconds after the end of a board meeting to reveal details about unexpectedly poor quarterly results that the bank was about to publish. Galleon sold all of its Goldman shares.
Last month, the US Securities and Exchange Commission launched a so-called "administrative action" against Mr Gupta, but he has not been charged with criminal offences. Prosecutors have won guilty pleas from 19 people involved in insider dealing as a result of the Galleon inquiry, but Mr Rajaratnam says he never did more than normal investment research.
Mr Gupta is counter-suing the SEC, saying he denies accusations of wrongdoing and has been unfairly denied his right to a jury trial.Reuse content

Thermoregulation in the Mouths of Feeding Gray Whales

Vascular structures for heat conservation in the tongue of the gray whale (Eschrichtius robustus) are reported here. Numerous individual countercurrent heat exchangers are found throughout the massive tongue. These converge at the base of the tongue to form a bilateral pair of retia. Temperature measurements from the oral cavity of a live gray whale indicate that more heat may be lost through the blubber layer over the body than through the tongue, despite the fact that the tongue is far more vascularized and has much less insulation. These heat exchangers substantially reduce heat loss when these whales feed in cold waters.

A service was held last weekend in the Chabad House of Bulgaria's Sun Coast, in memory of the five Israelis killed in a suicide bombing about a month ago. Taking part were local Chabad emissaries and dozens of Israeli tourists who learned portions of Talmud for the ascent of the victims' souls.
The study session opened with the hanging of a new curtain for the Ark, donated by Rabbi Shmuel Minsky of the Kaftor Veferach (Button and Flower) company, on which were embroidered the names of the five victims: Yitzchak Kolangi, Amir Menashe, Maor Harush, Elior Preis and Kochava Shriki. Memorial candles were lit and the afternoon service was prayed before the studying of Mishnayot.

Robert Reich on Big Money, non-profits and academia
A recent column by American political columnist Robert Reich examines the influence of big money on American non-profits and academia.
A recent column by American political columnist Robert Reich examines the influence of big money on American non-profits and academia.
On Thursday, The Catholic University of America's School of Business announced it had accepted a $3 million grant to "bolster the school's goal of advancing the study and practice of principled entrepreneurship."
The Charles Koch Foundation is funding $1.75 million of the grant.
Fr. Charles Curran, arguably the most influential U.S. moral theologian for the last 45 years, is easing back from full-time teaching, but he will continue to teach part time in Dallas, Texas, at Southern Methodist University, where he has been a tenured professor since 1991. And he will continue to write.
In a letter Monday, more than 50 Catholic signatories said donor Charles Koch and his brother, David, "have a clear political and ideological agenda."
Former U.S. Ambassador to the Vatican Thomas P. Melady, who served in several diplomatic posts and continued to play a role as "citizen-scholar," died Jan. 6. He was 86.
The Catholic University of America "has no intention of revisiting its decision to accept the grant from the Charles Koch Foundation," a statement from the university says.
In a letter released Monday, a group of 50 Catholic academics balk at tea party donors' funding of The Catholic University of America's business school.

Indefensible Space by Michael Sorkin
Book DescriptionShowing how the upswell of paranoia and growing demand for security in the post-9/11 world has paradoxically created widespread insecurity, these varied essays examine how this anxiety-laden mindset erodes spaces both architectural and personal, encroaching on all aspects of everyday life. Starting from the most literal level-barricades and barriers in front of buildings, beefed up border patrols, gated communities, "safe rooms,"-to more abstract levels-enhanced surveillance at public spaces such as airports, increasing worries about contagion, the psychological predilection for fortified space-the contributors cover the full gamut of securitized public life that is defining the zeitgeist of twenty-first century America
