I have Kodi 15.2 installed on two Macs:
1. Mac 27" Mid-2011, 3.4 GHz Core i7, Graphics AMD Radeon HD 6960M, running Mac OS X 10.11.1
2. Mac Mini mid-2010, 2.4 GHz Core2 Duo, Graphics Nvidia GeForce 320M, running Mac OS X 10.11.1
On both these Macs some Blu-Ray disks are unwatchable due to video tearing. For example, "Curse of the Golden Flower" and "Casino Royale". The Blu-Rays have been ripped with protection removed using AnyDVD HD.
Are there any Kodi settings that will solve this problem?
The hardware is capable of playing videos smoothly because:
a. Kodi running on the Mac Mini booted into Windows 7 plays the same Blu-Ray rips smoothly.
b. Kodi running on the iMac in a Windows 10 Parallels Virtual Machine plays the same Blu-Ray rips smoothly.
I am aware of the video tearing fix for the Mac Mini with Nvidia 320M but none of the drivers mentioned in the sticky thread are installable on the current Mac OS X. In any case, that the iMac cannot play the disk too makes me think it is a more general problem with Kodi on OS X.
Any help will be appreciated. I am trying my best to migrate from a Windows Media Center home theater PC environment o Kodi.

Well, right after I posted I saw a similar question and an answer that suggested disabling "settings-video-acceleration-VDA Decoder".
Just tried it on both machines and it works! The disks play fine.
Problem solved. Sorry to waste your time.
Perhaps that should be the default setting on Mac OS X??

Yes that worked for me too. The nvidia drivers are now installable without hack in 10.11.1. Just download the latest one from nvidia for 10.11.1 http://us.download.nvidia.com/Mac/Quadro....03f02.pkg

In this case you'd be wrong; I get out to Denver every so often myself, and I happened to have my trusty SD800 handy when I ran across this Cherokee a couple months back. I can tell it's from the 1974-79 range, but we'll need a serious Jeep expert to pin down the exact year. In any case, it's got a little bit of rot, but at the present rate of decay it should still be around in another 25 years. Make the jump for Part Two of the gallery.Reply29 repliesLeave a reply

Norbar Torque Tools has launched a new range of products for testing hydraulic torque wrenches from 250 N·m up to 80,000 N·m. Comprised of a Hydraulic Tool Calibration Fixture and a Transducer, which link to a Torque Measuring Instrument, these devices will accurately calibrate both square drive and hexagon link torque wrenches.
Team Norbar's 17 cyclists raised approximately £1850 for the Against Breast Cancer charity by taking part in the Classic Oxfordshire Sponsored Bike Ride (CLOX 2011) on Sunday 8th May.
Following a product recall by a leading British caravan manufacturer because of a number of reports of detached wheels, the world leading torque specialist Norbar Torque Tools has emphasised the need to ensure that the correct manufacturer specified level of torque is applied to the caravan wheel nuts.
Norbar Torque Tools is expanding its TruCheck™ range of torque wrench testers with the introduction of three new products specifically designed to calibrate torque screwdrivers. The new Norbar TruCheck™ Screwdriver Testers will allow operators to perform quick and simple calibration checks from easy-to-read LED displays without the need to call on third party calibration services, saving both time and expense.
Norbar Torque Tools held a lively and instructive Engineering Open Evening on Wednesday 16th March at its head office and factory in Banbury, Oxfordshire. This annual event regularly attracts school students interested in becoming engineering apprentices, together with accompanying adults including parents and teachers. With over 80 participants, this year broke all attendance records, demonstrating the attraction of engineering apprenticeship as a path to a rewarding career and the growing interest in the resurgent UK manufacturing sector.
For the fifth year running, the company canteen at the Banbury head office of precision engineering company Norbar Torque Tools has won a coveted Eat Well in Cherwell Award, presented by the Cherwell District Council. This means that they have now reached the highest possible grade - Platinum - having progressed through Bronze, Silver and Gold in previous years.
Norbar Torque Tools is launching a handy torque conversion calculator as a free download on Android and iPhone systems. Similar to the calculator featured at www.norbar.com, the new app offers instant conversion across a full range of SI. Metric and Imperial Units.
The Norbar sponsored motorcycle team for the Yamaha Past Masters Championship has recently assisted the YPMRC (Yamaha Past Masters Racing Club) in raising a donation of £2,074 toward the Kent Air Ambulance, collected through a raffle and other activities. Norbar is well known for providing precision torque tools for motorcycle maintenance and has been involved in this Brands Hatch event since 2004. The collection is in thanks for the rapid and efficient airlift rescue performed for the injured rider Craig Jennings earlier this season.
The New Norbar TrukTorque™ pneumatic torque multiplier is being exhibited at Euro Bus Expo 2010 (NEC Birmingham, UK , 2 - 4 November) on the Norbar Torque Tools Stand C66.
The newly launched TrukTorqueTM pneumatic torque multiplier from Norbar Torque Tools features a special banana shaped design reaction arm to handle bolt tightening on both front and rear wheels of trucks and buses. The design also easily accommodates wheel trims and deeply recessed wheel bolts. Additionally, the multiplier has none of the noise and vibration problems associated with impact wenches.
Finding the correct torque tool for your specific application is essential to ensure torque is applied accurately and with maximum ease.

Talk:Local search
|WikiProject Disambiguation
Hill climbing[edit]
What is the difference to hill climbing? Stern 08:28, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- This question was asked before the splitting into Local search (optimization) and Local search (Internet). The answer is now in the first article. Paolo Liberatore (Talk) 16:46, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
There is not much to discuss here... two completely different things. The only doubt is about the titles of the two articles. Possible titles for the first one:
- Local search (metaheuristics)
- Local search (algorithm)
- Local search (computer science)
- Local search (optimization)
- Local search algorithm
For the second one:
- Local search (web search)
- Local search (Internet)
- Local search (search engine)
- Web local search
Paolo Liberatore (Talk) 19:21, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
- local search (optimization) and Local search (Internet) would be fine with me. And I do agree with the split. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 00:45, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
- I don't agree with the way it would be split up. The main usage of the term local search comes from optimization. I think it would be better to keep the contents of optimization in this article, and add a link to a Local search (internet) article from within, without the disambiguation article. --Anthony Liekens 09:10, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
- Splitting off the internet search is even a better idea. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 17:04, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
- That's fine for me. I will wait some more days before doing the split. Paolo Liberatore (Talk) 11:56, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
- Oleg is actually incorrect. Perhaps the main usage of "local search" within computer science and academic circles is regarding the metaheuristic programming approach. However, the more-common usage of "local search" by the general population has come to be about search engines and their movement to assist people in finding information about local geographic areas. Don't believe me, though - check out news stories for the past few years. Also, check out mentions of it by the usership of webmasterworld and searchenginewatch -- they probably have more users combined than the entire academic community which is concerned with the programming method. Using the term "optimization" to refer to the programming method would be extremely confusing to the general population, since Search Engine Optimization (methods for improving rankings of sites and pages in search engine results) is extremely well known, and "Local Search Optimization" has come to refer to improving the rankings of local information sites/pages in search engine results. I suggest that you either keep the articles combined since they are so brief, or else name both of them specifically. There are far more people involved in local search as a type of search engine and in search engine optimization than there are involved with the programming theory/method. No one has touched on the gentleman's suggestion for "hill climbing" -- why not? Use of that term would disambiguate the issue completely. Silvery 13:09, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
- There's 11 "metaheuristic" articles pointing to this one, and only one search related article (Search Engine). Also because of this, it would not be a good idea to move the current metaheuristic contents out, into e.g. Hill climbing, as it would be confusing for the layman interested in optimization. "Local search" is an important optimization term on the web, in the text books and in the community. I understand however that the way this article should be split up is not that obvious. It might be indeed be useful to put a disambiguation page up, as Paolo originally proposed. We then also have to make sure that all (12 or so) articles that link here are updated to point to their specific Local search (internet) or Local search (optimization) article. --Anthony Liekens 21:33, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
Just to clarity a couple of points: the disambiguation page would say something like:
Local search may refer to: - local search (optimization), a method for problem solving; or - local search (Internet), the web search engine for findind web sites relevant to a given place.
I do not see what's wrong with that. Rather, I would not keep two completely different concepts in the same article just because they have the same name.
In the naming convention of this encyclopedia, a title X (Y) means: the X relative to Y, or the X that is an Y; therefore, "local search (optimization)" means the local search relative to [the field of] optimization and not optimization of local search. A possible way for avoiding confusion is to use both the disambiguation page and the disamb link at the top of each article, that is, each article starts with the sentence making reference to the other concept rather than a link to the disambiguation page.
Hill climbing is a specific kind of local search [1]. Moving the stuff of local search to the article on hill climbing will be wrong. This point should be clarified in the articles (I will do it after the split). Paolo Liberatore (Talk) 10:52, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
- Ok, we do not have consensus, but at least there is a majority for the split. I will leave the talk page here, since it is more relevant to the disamb page than to the separated pages. Paolo Liberatore (Talk) 15:51, 18 October 2005 (UTC)

U of A Celebrates National Play Therapy Week as Office Reaches First Anniversary
The University of Arkansas is celebrating the approach of the first anniversary of the Office of Play Therapy Research and Training as licensed mental health professionals throughout the nation will observe National Play Therapy Week the week of Feb. 7-13.
Kristi Perryman, an assistant professor of counselor education in the College of Education and Health Professions, created the play therapy office last year. It received its designation as a nationally approved center by the Association for Play Therapy on March 6.
Perryman joined the U of A faculty in the fall of 2014 and had worked for the past 15 years as a play therapist and also taught at Missouri State University. She issued an invitation to the campus community, the public and mental health professionals from schools and agencies to attend an open house of the play therapy program. The open house will take place from 2 to 5 p.m. Monday, March 14 in Room 136 of the Graduate Education Building. Students considering pursuing a master's or doctoral degree in counseling are encouraged to come meet faculty members.
Play is our first language, according to the Association for Play Therapy, the national professional society that advances play therapy. Just as adults use words to communicate, children use play to express thoughts and feelings that might otherwise remain hidden. Thousands of licensed mental health professionals use play therapeutically to help their clients, especially children, to describe and manage their behaviors and mental health problems, according to the association.
"We are thrilled with the response to our program from Northwest Arkansas and around the state," Perryman said. "Our inaugural summer conference, Child Parent Relationship Training with Dr. Garry Landreth, was attended by 106 participants from all over Arkansas and southwest Missouri. Our second-annual conference will be June 24-25 with Dr. Dee Ray from the University of North Texas."
Perryman said the faculty have created coursework in the past year to ensure that students can obtain the full 150 hours needed for the educational portion of becoming a registered play therapist in a year's time.
"We also have a playroom in which students work with children from the community, and we received a gracious donation from retired play therapist Mrs. Doris A. Schuldt," Perryman said. "She donated her extensive play therapy library to the Office of Play Therapy Research and Training to expand resources for students who are training to become play therapists."
National School Counseling Week sponsored by the American School Counselor Association is being celebrated this week, Feb. 1-5. Recently, the Association for Play Therapy changed its requirements, allowing school counselors to become Registered Play Therapists.
"This is very exciting because school counselors work with students daily, and play is the most developmentally appropriate method of counseling children," Perryman said.
The play therapy office and curriculum are part of the counselor education program in the College of Education and Health Professions training both school and community mental health professionals. Play therapy training enables all mental health professionals working with children a specialized scope of practice.
This spring, the counseling program has partnered with John Brown University and the Bentonville School District to place interns specifically trained in play therapy in elementary schools to work with students as part of the Early Connections program.
"As more students are trained in this specialty area, we hope to partner with other Northwest Arkansas schools to offer play therapy," Perryman said.
The U of A offers both master's and doctoral degrees in counseling. The Master of Science degree offers specialties in clinical mental health counseling and school counseling. Both degree programs are accredited by the Council for the Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs.

Experiencing the Great Wall of China
... Afterwards, we crossed the street to the Mutianyu Wall.
The Great Wall of China is a bit misleading, as it is not one single wall. Instead, it is a series of several walls, built along the highest ridges of mountain tops. If you were to put all of the walls together, they would stretch from Los Angeles to London. Some are newer than others, with the oldest dating to around 200 BC. Many of the walls are now very deteriorated, but some have been restored. There's one ...

Honeys and Emperors, what next?
Im in the process of restocking (powercut disaster) my tank 27x14x14 long so holds about 22 US gallons according to the tank calculator thingy i used. Currently i have 6 Emperor Tetras (2M 4F) and 3 Honey Gourami (1M 2F) and im not sure where to go next! Id like to have some bottom dwellers but i dont really like any of them.I know most people have Corys but their "bristley" faces creep me out a bit the guy at my LFS said i could get a Bolivian Ram or Flag Cichlid and another group of shoaling fish but i dont trust their advice after bad experiences in the past with fish store employees giving rubbish advice. Sooooo advice please? I know you guys wont steer me wrong!
post #2 of 3 Old 05-23-2012, 11:45 AM
In my view there is not sufficient space for more upper fish. And I would not add a cichlid to the present fish group. Emperor Tetra are not "small" and their activity means they need space.Substrate fish are possible. Corys would be ideal as you could have a group (5) for some activity, but you don't like them. A whiptail catfish is another option, but you won't see much as it is not an active swimmer.

Something we all need to remember: The fish you've acquired was quite happy not being owned by you, minding its own business. If youre going to take it under your wing then youre responsible for it. Every aspect of its life is under your control, from water quality and temperature to swimming space. [Nathan Hill in PFK]

whiptail catfish don't swim often but when they do they are very nice to watch they can swim upside down or on the sides , they like sinking wafers and flakes and they LOVE zucchini mine wont let it go until its gone =D and like byron said you wont see much from them unless you have dim light as they are mostly active at night and just clean stuff up!

Coca-Cola Partners with Music Dealers to Help Promote Undiscovered Artists
Coca-Cola's best known contribution to music may be "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing" (In Perfect Harmony)," but it now wants to be known for helping consumers find new music. As exclusively announced in this week's Billboard magazine, the company has partnered with music licensing website Music Dealers to discover and license new talent from artists around the world. Already underway is a promotion with Taio Cruz in which three Music Dealers artists will be chosen by Cruz to remix for his song, "Higher."
Given Coca-Cola's global reach and brand equity, the company's involvement in music can mean big opportunities for musicians. Coca-Cola is consistently ranked one of the world's top brands. It was named last year's top brand in Interbrand's "Best Global Brands 2010" report, although it fell from 3rd to 16th in the latest Brand Finance list of top global brands. And with nearly 33 million Facebook followers, Coca-Cola has serious social media power, too.
The lone case study Music Dealers and Coca-Cola currently offer is the Swedish band You Say France & I Whistle. Its song "Can You Feel It" was recorded by British band One Night Only for use in a global ad campaign. The band claims Coca-Cola's use of the song has allowed it to start its own record label, hire a publicist and book a ten-city European tour.
Coca-Cola is hardly a novice at using music in innovative ways. Earlier this year, Maroon 5 kicked off the new "Coca-Cola Music" program that aims to give teens a view of artists' creative process. The band's 24-hour session - an original song from start to finish - was broadcast at the Coca-Cola website. Videos from that session are currently available online. Two years ago, the company's "Open Happiness" campaign used a commissioned single created by Cee-Lo Green, Patrick Stump from Fall Out Boy, Brendon Urie from Panic at the Disco, Travis McCoy from Gym Class Heroes and newcomer Janelle Monae. And the 1971 commercial that used "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing (In Perfect Harmony)" sent the song to #1 hit in the UK and #7 in the US.
The partnership is actually an investment in Music Dealers. Coca-Cola has a spending commitment with Music Dealers and will receive shares in the company as it spends, according to Music Dealer spokesperson Jennifer Amdur Spitz.

Taking advantage of some major post relief Par IV Stables, Terry Ryan, Dennis Hauck and Ron Latham's Westward Vision held on to win by the slimmest of noses in 1:50.0.
Masterfully using the inside starting spot, driver Dave Magee gunned his gelding right to the lead as the starting gate sped away. Entrymate Go Warrior Go (Darcy Pletcher) came winging away from post position eight and Magee was more than happy to let his stablemate take command as the field hit the opening station in 27.2.
After settling onto the backstretch, Magee had Westward Vision out and rolling again and the seven-year-old quickly swept back into the lead. With his entrymate sitting right on his back Westward Vision cruised by the half-mile mark in 55.0.
Pacing around the final turn Westward Vision continued to hold firm to a 1 ½ length advantage. General Challenge (Sam Widger) was leading up the outer flow as he moved into second, while Go Warrior Go was starting to gap at the pylons in third as the field reached the three-quarter-mile station in 1:23.0.
Setting sail for home, Westward Vision quickly opened up a two length advantage. As the field moved inside the eighth-pole General Challenge was starting to stall while a second over Incredible Art (Ryan Anderson) was gobbling up ground in a hurry. Coming to the wire an all out Westward Vision was able to keep a nostril in front of the fast closing Incredible Art. Abouttolosecontrol (Brent Holland), who upset this group last week at 18-1, shook loose late to rally for the show dough.
Claimed this spring for a tag of $17,500, Westward Vision continues to be a steal for trainer Darcy Pletcher. Now boasting a record of 10 wins, one second and six thirds in 20 starts this season the son of Western Hanover has earned over $92,000 for his connections.
Sent off as the 8-5 favorite in the wagering, Westward Vision returned $5.20, $3.80 & $3.20. Combined with the 28-1 Incredible Art in the place spot the $2 exacta returned a healthy $107.20.
Despite having to be used hard at two different points in the mile, the Ken Rucker trained five-year-old still hade enough left to collar the pace setting Make My Day (Sam Widger) in the final strides.
This son of Arturo has 15 wins over the past two seasons and Saturday night's first place check helped push his bankroll to $343,000 for owners Jordan Sklut, Rucker Stables and Centaur Stables.

Exodus 3:11-14New King James Version (NKJV)
11 But Moses said to God, "Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?"
12 So He said, "I will certainly be with you. And this shall be a sign to you that I have sent you: When you have brought the people out of Egypt, you shall serve God on this mountain."
13 Then Moses said to God, "Indeed, when I come to the children of Israel and say to them, 'The God of your fathers has sent me to you,' and they say to me, 'What is His name?' what shall I say to them?"
14 And God said to Moses, "I AM WHO I AM." And He said, "Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, 'I AM has sent me to you.'"

Microsoft's Band Wearable Helps Owners Takes a Hike
Aiming to gain a leg up in the challenging market for wearable devices, Microsoft is layering an increasing amount of functionality onto its own health and activity tracker.
This week, Microsoft is rolling out updates that expand the capabilities of its Band wearable and the Health companion app. Among them is a new Explore Tile that encourages users to get up, get moving and discover new vistas, announced Lindsey Matese, senior communications manager for Microsoft Band and Health.
"Download the app update to receive the Explore Tile, and try out the new experience for yourself," instructed Matese in a blog posting. Like Windows Mobile and certain elements of the Windows 10 user experience, Microsoft Band uses an app-like tiled interface that grants access to its many features and capabilities.
"The Explore Tile uses built-in GPS to keep track of your route on your band's display, and lets you drop points of interest along the way. It's perfect for tracking hikes, or even just a walk around the neighborhood," Matese said.
The Microsoft Band wearable's new Explore Tile helps users track their hikes and find points of interest along the way.
The new GPS Power Saver helps Microsoft Band owners track their hikes for up to 12 hours while conserving battery power. While on a hike, the wearable can remind users to keep well hydrated and fed. It can also alert users of inclement weather and what the time the sun sets, for safe and successful outdoor adventures.

text: This story is good.N/A POWAAAHH1/30/14 7:07pm2210EditPromoteShare to KinjaGo to permalink OK, this really happened: Advertisement A long time ago, I was a student tractor-trailer driver. My instructorand I were in the city, me driving a single axle tractor pulling a 40foot van. The instructor asks me "How many cars are following you?" andI replied "One". He says "How do you know? I don't see any". I answered"Because I can see the shadow of a car behind the trailer". That meansthe following car is _right_ on my rear bumper.He compliments me on my driving skill as we approach a underpass whichis on a curve. In the shadow of the underpass, in the middle of thelane, is a V8 engine block. About 400 pounds of iron, festooned withvarious brackets, just sitting there. Now I have two problems: spike thebrakes, get hit in the rear and automatically lose my learner's permit,or try to avoid hitting the engine block. Hitting the block iscompletely out of the question, as the head instructor is a formerMarine Drill Instructor and on our first day told us not to even THINKabout dinging one of his trucks, using language and gestures as only aformer Marine Drill Instructor can. Advertisement I tap the brakes lightly, to let the tailgating idiot know I'm slowingdown, and center the tractor over the block, telling my instructor " I'mgonna straddle it!" He opens his door and starts trying to look underthe truck. He starts yelling " It missed the axle, turn a little left,no, right, left, yeah, Ok, hold it right there!" I'm wincing, waitingfor a bracket to reach out and tear out an air line, or rip a tire, orbang into a brake servo.I'm yelling " Did we hit it?, Did we hit it?" when the instructor swingsback up in the seat, smiles, and says " No, but the guy behind us suredid!"I look in the mirror, and sure enough, the guy behind now has a newCadillac with a vee-shaped front bumper and a major coolant leak. Anda new perspective on tailgating. Sponsored I ask " Do we have to stop?" " Nope, didn't come of our truck, did it? "So off we went, laughing.LINKReply22 repliesLeave a reply

Dead or Alive: Survival Threshold
24th event on my popular CC Circuit! This one is a bit more creative and outside the box than my usual. I don't want to get into the full rules here, as they are a bit long and they are important to understand, but the basic concept is that you'll start out "alive" and then become a zombie if you fail to achieve a certain amount of points in a stage. Zombies are still in the event, but they lose privileges that the living get to enjoy and will play at a disadvantage.
Last living man standing is the champion!
If you've never played a CC Circuit event before you don't know what you're missing and I absolutely urge you to to try one out today! You just might get hooked! More information can be found on the CC Circuit via the event in my profile, which is my free newsletter to let you know any time I make a new event.
ANYHOW, spaces are limited, prizes will be great, and I guarantee that you'll have a good time. The event starts soon so don't hesitate to join today!
Please rate the event green.
Thanks for taking your time to check it out and thanks mods for posting!

Iron Horse Motel/Lamplighter: Very nice budget lodging
We have stayed at this motel many times over the years and have never had a bad experience - even when we arrived very late. The motel was recently redecorated and upgraded. It is always clean and the front desk staff is friendly.

There are mini-fridges and microwaves in every room and there is a complimentary basic breakfast available until 10:30 each morning. There is free wireless in each room - plus a computer in the breakfast room if you didn't bring your laptop.

Drawbacks are no pool or exercise room. Some rooms have a motel/parking lot view. There are smoking/non-smoking rooms on the same floor. I am very sensitive to this smoke, but I only noticed the odor when the maids were cleaning. When they are finished and the doors closed, I did not notice it at all!

But if you don't need all the frills and are on a budget, this is the best/least expensive place to stay in the area.
SUMMER:
A room with 2 Queen beds for three is about $70 (+$7 tax).. A large room with one Queen bed - plus hide-a-bed and casual chair is also $70 for 2 people. AND it's quiet!!
Iron Horse Motel / Lamplighter, 10 11th Street SE - Spencer, IA 51301 / (712) 262-3720. At the south side of the intersection of Highways 18 & 71 at the "South T" of Spencer.

Walking distance to several restaurants/fast food and a large Walmart and shopping mall.
About 1/2 mile to large city park with an aquatic center and wonderful large playground.
Less than mile to downtown.
About 20 miles from Iowa Great Lakes region where room can easily be 2x to 3x the price.

Highly recommended.

Young children may be receptive to languages, but until last year, language teaching in primary schools was a matter of luck. The right head and the right teachers meant that some schools were teaching French, German and Spanish, but, for most, languages were something to be left to GCSEs.
All that changed last March, when the Dearing Report recommended that all primary schools should be teaching a modern foreign language by September 2009. Now, it is policy, and primary schools are racing to catch up.
With the deadline to lay on a foreign language at Key Stage 2 just 18 months away, schools have already made dramatic progress. In 2002, 44 per cent offered language teaching, now 70 per cent do, and the Government has given £35m to help schools reach the target.
Still, some heads will be left scratching their heads. How can primaries teach languages without a specialist? Some are turning to independent consultants for advice and materials. But government funding has already made cash available through the National Centre for Languages (Cilt), which co-ordinates the National Advisory Centre on Early Languages Learning.
With guidance and resources online and a plethora of training opportunities, Cilt is confident that all British primary schools will soon be up to scratch.
"The 2009 deadline is absolutely realisable," says Carmel O'Hagan, from Cilt. "There's significant funding going into primary languages and a huge amount of support."
Already, teachers can find lesson plans in French, Spanish and German online, and Cilt is developing a comprehensive programme for primary teachers that will be available later this year.
O'Hagan says that teachers do not need a languages degree. Family connections and even trips abroad can provide a base for the British Council-funded, two-week immersion course in France or Germany.
Despite early concerns, O'Hagan says primary teachers are now more confident. "We're changing hearts and minds. The enthusiasm from teachers, heads and secondary language teachers is a massive step forward."
The message from Cilt and the Government is that non-specialists can teach languages. "There are large numbers of schools where there are no specialists," says Lorna Harvey, an adviser at Staffordshire County Council. "We are trying to encourage and support non-specialists in languages as they are actually specialists in terms of primary practice."
Some local authorities have moved over entirely to non-specialist teachers, as in Liverpool. Many primary schools are working with the country's 223 specialist language colleges to develop materials.
And government-funded partnerships allow primaries outside specialist-language-college catchment areas to band together to develop curricula and tools. The Sunderland Partnership, funded by the Department for Children, Schools and Families, has brought together seven schools, the independent Sunderland High School, the specialist language college St Aidan's, and five primaries to develop materials and, perhaps most importantly, a French pronunciation CD, so that all teachers can teach languages, not just at Key Stage 2, but in Years one and two as well.
"We've developed a complete kit," says Janet Holyoak, responsible for MFL at Newbottle Primary School. "Any teacher within the school can now use it without external training,"
Schools, or even parents, concerned about meeting the 2009 deadline should contact their local council's language adviser. Councils are approaching the challenge in different ways, although most, like the Sunderland Partnership and Cilt, are focusing on primary teachers learning to teach languages rather than parachuting in peripatetic teachers or experts.
"I want primary school teachers delivering it," says Geoffrey Roberts, schools adviser (modern languages) at Oxfordshire County Council. "That's the only way it's going to become embedded in the curriculum." As Roberts acknowledges, most of these teachers are going to need not just internet resources, but training. Oxfordshire offers six-week courses for primary teachers. "The big issue is confidence and the ability to deliver," says Roberts. "You can't train people through a website."
Local courses can bring impressive results. Many primary teachers are, understandably, anxious about languages, seeing them as a speciality similar to something like music. But with so many resources available, and with the right preparation primary teachers should have little to worry about. Instead of seeing languages as another burden on their time, many welcome another string to their bow. "Many are anxious at first," says Lorna Harvey at Staffordshire County Council. "But when they have started they are very positive and enjoy the experience."

Astrocyte dysfunction in epileptogenesis: the role of adenosine Project Summary/Abstract This grant proposal studies the hypothesis that astrogliosis and resulting dysfunction of adenosine-based neuromodulation is a mechanistic cause for the development of epilepsy (i.e. epileptogenesis). This is of importance, since to date no effective prophylaxis for epilepsy is available. This proposal will explore status epilepticus (SE)- triggered epileptogenesis and dysfunction of the endogenous adenosine-based seizure control system in mice in search for an astrocyte-based mechanism of epileptogenesis and thus may provide a foundation for the development of novel antiepileptogenic therapies. The proposal is based on the following findings: (i) Adenosine kinase (ADK) is the key enzyme for the regulation of adenosine;(ii) In adult brain, ADK is expressed in astrocytes;(iii) Astrogliosis is a hallmark of epileptogenesis;(iv) ADK is over-expressed within epileptic astrogliotic hippocampus;(v) Augmentation of adenosine by implants of adenosine releasing cells prevents kindled seizures. (vi) Transgenic overexpression of ADK increases seizure susceptibility;(vii) Local reduction of ADK in transgenic mice prevents epileptogenesis. Our CENTRAL HYPOTHESIS is that an epileptogenesis triggering event (e.g. SE) induces astrogliosis with resultant regional upregulation of ADK as a necessary component of epileptogenesis and that reconstitution of brain adenosine by stem cell derived brain implants can prevent such epileptogenesis. The model system to address this hypothesis consists of intraamygdaloid application of kainic acid (KA) to initiate epileptogenesis selectively in the CA3 area of the hippocampal formation of mice and to transplant ADK-deficient adenosine releasing embryonic stem (ES) cells into the epileptogenic region.
In Aim 1 we will study the causal, temporal, and spatial relations of astrogliosis, upregulation of ADK and seizures in a mouse model of CA3-selective epileptogenesis.
In Aim 2 we will use a panel of different Adk-transgenic mice, in which we can molecularly separate cell-type specific functions of ADK expression from astrogliosis, to study both mechanisms independently.
In Aim 3 we will use ADK-deficient ES cell-derived intrahippocampal implants in a therapeutic approach to prevent epileptogenesis. The expected outcome of these studies is to define astrocytic ADK as a target for the prevention of epileptic seizures and to translate these findings into a novel stem cell based treatment approach.
Currently, no therapy is available to prevent the development of epilepsy. This proposal studies a defective function of the brain's own adenosine-based seizure control system as a mechanistic cause for epilepsy and translates these findings into a novel approach to prevent epilepsy by implanting adenosine releasing stem cells.

Some people wonder if Jesus got married and had kids.
Well I'm telling you that he most certainly did.
He had two handsome sons and a beautiful daughter.
Jesus taught all three of them how to walk on water.
They developed the same powers that their father had.
Jesus was a loving husband and a wonderful dad.
Now Jesus and his family are in Heaven way above the clouds.
God loves Jesus and his family and they make him very proud.

Statement: "Seventy-five percent of transportation funding in the next five years will go to transit, up from 50 percent in the last five years," said Councilman Todd Gloria, in a statement touting his support of the San Diego Association of Government's 30-year transportation plan.
Determination: A Stretch
Analysis: For politicians supporting the region's new 30-year transportation plan, there was a common explanation: The plan spends most of its money on transit, not highways. And as a region we're gradually moving away from highway building as our primary transportation solution.
It was particularly voiced in response to concerns from environmental and other transit groups who allege the San Diego Association of Governments, or SANDAG, hadn't done enough in its blueprint to build out a transit system across the county that would make commuting without a car a viable option, and decrease the county's carbon footprint.

At what age do men lose interest in sex?
9 Posts
To the people saying women lose interest in sex after 40 - wow! We must be living on different planets. My friends and I are (almost) all in our 40s. I'm definitely at my sexual peak, which has shown no sign of nadir yet. Most of my friends are busily having babies, and the ones who aren't appear to be busily practising.
We are all much more interested in sex, and enjoying it more, than we ever have in our lives. I only know of one who has gone off sex with her husband, rather than off sex itself. Perhaps the women you mention just don't like the sex they've been having, rather than not liking sex itself.
Are the women in their 40s you know unhealthy? Anyone who is obese or has some other worrisome medical condition may not be interested in sexual intercourse. At age 40 there is no reason to let yourself fall apart. People are not only looking better into their later years these days - they can be healthier, too.

I'm a 35 year old female. My partner is 47. We haven't had sex in two years because he has lost his sex drive. Apart from missing making love to him, I very much want a child and am worried about my age. I don't think it's the pressure of me wanting to have a child is what's putting him off. He lost his sex drive way before I ever mentioned it. Plus he insists that he adores me and does want kids. Can anyone out there help? I'm desperate!

Just4me, there is absolutely NO medical justification whatsoever for routine circumcision. No medical authority anywhere in any developed country in the world supports it and most completely oppose it on medical grounds alone. Removing a perfectly healthy functioning part of the male antomy is medically unsupported, risky, harmful and unethical - PERIOD.
The soltion for the removla of bacteria is WASHING. Would you advocate the removal of healthy teeth to prevent plaque build-up? Of course you wouldn't - you'd brush them.

Hi, I and my wife in our 80's had good sex life. Unfortunatel she died some years ago. So that put an end to a happy life style.
On another topic is it better that a man be circumcised for hygienic reasons. If you do not shower daily then bacteria builds up under foreskin, Right or wrong. JustMe4

I am 56year old male. Up to a year ago I always had a good sex drive, however for the last year I just dont seem to have any interest at all. My doctor gave me ciallis, and this will give me an erection, but my problem really is the total lack of interes in sex. Could I have a low testosterone level. Any suggestions welcome.

Now, I am having some problems with ED and am working with my GP to see if the problem is tractable to modern medicine [not just a V-pill!]. He says that the pituitary gland is very important in this problem and that he wants an MRI to see what is going on there. In his view, 75-85 years of age is no bar to healthy sexual function. Look at Abram and Sariah in Genesis!

For many women, once they either go past the time for having children they loose interest in sex.
Your views and those of your friends are 1 thing and my views and those of my friends are another.
Neither group is right or wrong but it goes to show that there are at least 2 groups of women out there and none of us are to say which is right or wrong. Both approaches are personal choice, thats all

As for men learning to curb it - I can't say I'd like if my husband did that as for me, it still is a big deal.

Its not the menopause that causes this, its just not seen as a big deal.
I can say with certainty that all the women I know from 40 to late 50\'s are no longer having an active sex life. Maybe its to do with raising children, stress whatever but thats the way it is.
As for men, they never loose their libido but they do learn to curb it.
They don\'t have a great deal of choice, when you think about it!!!

But if a women as young as 41 or 42 is losing interest in sex that is significant of another deeper problem, either medical or more likely in the relationship.
An honest, open frank discussion might be a good idea or relationship counselling may help.
Bear in mind too that some women, especially smokers go off he pill at around 40 and (assuming they don't want children at that point) may have difficulty finding a contraceptive to suit until they reach menopause and that can present a huge barrier to sex.

Men never lose interest in sex, ever. Men may encounter difficulties due to illnesses, certain types of medication, for blood pressure, for example, extreme exhaustion, but lose interest.....they sure don't.
Men may lose interest in a wife/partner, but that is a different matter.

Maybe you are not good in bed and thats why your partners don't initiate sex with you. They could be bored by what you do. Or they could be getting it elsewhere.
Either way, if you want a good sex life with your partner you really should sit down and communicate with HER!
Your not doing the situation much good by talking to us....

On the other hand I'm in my early fifties and I'd have it every night if it was on offer. I'm in a long standing relationship and I find I'm the one who has to do all the play for pleasure. My problem is I'm to bloody faithful to my partner.
