On Wednesday, Thailand's revered king, Bhumibol Adulyadej, the world's longest-reigning monarch, turns 80. To say that the Thais worship the man is an understatement. His picture hangs in almost every house, restaurant, bar, caf, office and shop in the country. He enjoys the kind of popularity that British royalty can only dream about.
So, where is King Bhumibol likely to hold his birthday celebrations? He'll probably spend some time in Hua Hin. "Our King loves to come to Hua Hin. In fact, he almost lives here these days," says Narongchai "Andy" Suparat, the guest activity manager at the Six Senses Hideaway Resort who is taking me on a tour of the town. We are standing on a hill overlooking both Hua Hin and the ocean. "I think he must like the climate and the peace and quiet. Everyone in the town is incredibly proud he has chosen us."
Yet, King Bhumibol (inset) isn't the first Thai monarch to choose Hua Hin as his preferred getaway. Located about 160 miles south of Bangkok and set along a gorgeous sweeping beach looking out at the Gulf of Thailand, Hua Hin has been drawing royalty for almost a hundred years. "In the 1920s King Rama VII had a railway line built here from Bangkok," says Andy. "He even constructed a massive palace."
The royal court, associated hangers-on and Bangkok's elite followed Rama VII south. With dozens of grand villas being built, along with attractions such as Thailand's first golf course and one of Asia's most famous luxury stopovers the still surviving Railway Station Hotel the great and the good of Thailand descended on Hua Hin in their droves. They, much like the present monarch, are still coming, but these days a whole other industry has been built around Hua Hin's attractions upmarket, international tourism.
Outside of Phuket and Bangkok, Hua Hin has the biggest collection of top-rated hotels in Thailand. Sheratons, Marriotts, Hyatts, Anantaras and Six Senses sit alongside what the cognoscenti regard as Thailand's cutest and best-preserved resort town. "We've managed to keep many of the 1920s buildings," says Andy as we take in Hua Hin's antique, wooden railway station, rows of frangipani-adorned white-clapboard villas and the distinctive town centre. "Most other Thai resort towns have just built new structures," says Andy, "but we wanted to maintain a more relaxed and traditional atmosphere."
After a stroll past the run of Hua Hin's original wooden fishermen's piers on the shoreline and through the tangle of backstreets, Andy and I arrive at the corner of Naebkehardt and Dechanuchit roads and one of the resort town's most famous noodle shops, Jeak Peak. "This place has been here for 62 years," says Andy, as massive bowls of seafood noodle soup and plates of pork satay are brought to our table. It's hard to know where to start yet we still manage to clear the lot, finishing with bright-tasting, iced lime sodas the perfect palate cleanser and an easy drink with which to watch the world go by.
One of Hua Hin's draws for today's international guests is its spas. The original headline- grabber was the five-star celebrity detox resort, Chiva-Som. Currently in the ascendant is the Six Senses Earth Spa, my next stop to experience the kind of indulgence for which this town is famed.
"I'm going to do a series of shamanistic massages and movements to help release some of the old, negative energy that is in your system," says self-styled holistic consultant, Roger Moore, as he begins to pound my prone body. Notions of indulgence seem far-fetched such is the ferocity of Roger's treatment. But I'm not worried Roger's client list is stuffed full of famously litigious celebrities clients so I know I'm safe.
"How do you feel?" says Roger, as the pounding finishes. Relieved is the first thing that comes to mind, yet it is with renewed vigour that I depart from the spa and head to the far more relaxed environs of my private pool in my private villa.
It doesn't take long for the combined soporific effects of Roger's treatment, the heat, a staggering passion-fruit parfait, and a long, lazy dip to induce the desired effect. I'm beginning to understand why Thailand's monarch digs Hua Hin so much. I mean if somebody like me can get treated like a king what happens to the real thing?

This dissertation employs recent developments in the cognitive sciences to explicate competing social and religious undercurrents in Beowulf. An enduring scholarly debate has attributed the poem's origins to, variously, Christian or polytheistic worldviews. Rather than approaching the subject with inherited terms which originated in Judeo-Christian assumptions of religious identity, we may distinguish two incongruous ways of conceiving of agency, both human and divine, underlying the conventional designations of pagan and Christian. One of these, the poly-agent schema, requires a complex understanding of the motivations and limitations of all sentient individuals as causal agents with their own internal mental complexities. The other, the omni-agent schema, centralizes original agency in the figure of an omnipotent and omnipresent God and simplifies explanations of social interactions. In this concept, any individual's potential for intentional agency is limited to subordination or resistance to the will of God. The omni-agent schema relies on social categorization to understand behavior of others, whereas the poly-agent schema tracks individual minds, their intentions, and potential actions. Whereas medieval Christian narratives, such as Bede's Life of St. Cuthbert and Augustine's Confessions, depend on the omni-agent schema, Beowulf relies more heavily on the poly-agent schema, which it shares with Classical and Norse myths, epics, and sagas. While this does not prove that the poem originated before the conversion of the Anglo-Saxons, it suggests that the poem was able to preserve an older social schema which would have been discouraged in post-conversion cultures were it not for a number of passages in the poem which affirmed conventional Christian theology. These theological asides describe an omni-agent schema in abstract terms, though they accord poorly with the representations of character thought and action within the poem. This minimal affirmation of a newer model of social interaction may have enabled the poem's preservation on parchment in an age characterized by the condemnation, and often violent suppression, of non-Christian beliefs. These affirmations do not, however, tell the whole story. Committee in charge: James W.

*½/**** Image A Sound A
starring Sean Penn, Idris Elba, Ray Winstone, Javier Bardem
screenplay by Don McPherson, Pete Travis, Sean Penn, based on the novel The Prone Gunman by Jean-Patrick Manchette
directed by Pierre Morel
WATCH IN iTunes
by Bill Chambers Sean Penn seems like the last guy who would walk into his agent's office and say, "Give me the Liam Neeson™," because his work doesn't operate on that kind of cynicism. Even I Am Sam, in which he courts an Oscar by playing mentally-challenged, fits neatly into a career whose primary auteurist concern has been the sanctity and fragility of daughters' lives (see also: The Crossing Guard, The Pledge, 21 Grams, and Mystic River). So it's reassuring, sort of, to see him use The Gunman as a pulpit for his humanitarian concerns (presuming I've correctly extrapolated the political firebrand's credited contribution to the screenplay), but there is a disappointing transparency to the character, as if he's afraid that reinventing himself too much in the Neeson mold will reveal, God forbid, a desire to stay popular in a profession he has threatened to quit numerous times. In The Gunman, one of our most transformative actors--a guy who as recently as 2011 turned himself into the spitting image of The Cure's Robert Smith and affected a childlike drawl for the length of a feature--comports himself with a tedious self-seriousness, makes time to surf, and smokes way too much to be a credible action hero. He's Sean Penn in all but name, and he's kind of a drag.

Murky Laws Complicate Insider Cases, Ex-Prosecutor Says
Insider-trading laws are "a little bit murky" and confusing to investment professionals, the lead prosecutor on the Raj Rajaratnam case said during a panel discussion in New York.
"There's incredible confusion on what is or is not illegal, and it's a real problem," Jonathan Streeter, a former Manhattan assistant U.S. attorney now with Dechert LLP, said today at the Bloomberg Hedge Funds Summit. "The law is very complicated and the lines are a little bit murky."
He said the cases he worked on seemed sufficiently "over the line."
New York defense lawyers Gerald Shargel and Ira Sorkin joined Streeter on the panel to discuss the government's insider-trading investigations, which have centered largely on hedge funds since Galleon Group LLC co-founder Rajaratnam was arrested in 2009.
Sorkin, who represented Ponzi schemer Bernard Madoff, said prosecutors and civil enforcement agencies are working more closely than in the past on insider-trading cases, creating a more complicated legal landscape for defendants.
"Today, parallel investigations take place all of the time," Sorkin said, with each agency "looking for a pound of flesh."
More Cases
Along with the case against Rajaratnam, who is serving an 11-year prison sentence, federal prosecutors in Manhattan have brought insider-trading cases against Level Global Investors LP co-founder Anthony Chiasson, former Diamondback Capital Management LLC portfolio manager Todd Newman and former SAC Capital Advisors LP portfolio manager Mathew Martoma, among others, as part of a nationwide crackdown.
All three men have denied wrongdoing.
Chiasson and Newman are on trial in Manhattan federal court. Martoma, who was arrested last month and was also sued by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, is free on bail. The panelists declined to speak about specific cases.
Prosecutors have also brought cases over hedge fund employees' alleged inappropriate use of so-called expert-network consultants to obtain confidential information. Streeter said there are some uses of consultants that the government would find acceptable.
Using an expert in a drug under development to get a sense of how the product would be used is "totally appropriate, and the government will never question it," Streeter said. Obtaining information about confidential clinical trials would not be appropriate, he said.
Martoma is accused of using a tip from a consultant about the progress of a clinical trial for an Alzheimer's drug to help his firm make $276 million.
More than 80 people have been sued by regulators or charged by prosecutors since 2008 for passing or getting inside tips about pharmaceutical, biotechnology or other health-care stocks.

Authentic Brown Hotel Style Hot Brown Sandwich
|Whole butter
|2 Ounce
|All purpose flour
|2 Ounce
|Heavy cream
|1 Quart
|Pecorino romano cheese
|9 Tablespoon (For Garnish)
|To Taste
|Sliced roasted turkey breast
|14 Ounce, sliced
|Texas toast
|2 , crust trimmed (Slices)
|Crispy fried bacon slices
|Roma tomatoes
|2 , sliced in half
|To Taste
|1 Teaspoon
In a two-quart saucepan, melt butter and slowly whisk in flour until combined and forms a thick paste (roux). Continue to cook roux for two minutes over medium-low heat, stirring frequently. Whisk whipping cream into the roux and cook over medium heat until the cream begins to simmer, about 2-3 minutes. Remove sauce from heat and slowly whisk in Pecorino Romano cheese until the Mornay sauce is smooth. Add salt and pepper to taste.
For each Hot Brown, place one slice of toast in an oven-safe dish and cover with 7 ounces of turkey. Take the two halves of Roma tomatoes and set them along side the base of turkey and toast. Next, pour one-half of the Mornay sauce to completely cover the dish. Sprinkle with additional Pecorino Romano cheese. Place entire dish under a broiler until cheese begins to brown and bubble. Remove from broiler, cross two pieces of crispy bacon on top, sprinkle with paprika and parsley, and serve immediately. I hope you enjoy this famous sandwich! --Betty :)

Roasted Coffee Table Runner Tutorial
Today I am the guest blogger on AccuQuilt's blog. I am sharing a fast and easy table runner that is made using the new AccuQuilt GO! Qube Mix & Match 12″ block set. I am really having fun with the 8 dies in this set and will have other projects to share soon.
I had just enough of the French Roasted collection from Island Batik to make it.
Roasted Coffee Table Runner Tutorial
Finished size 12" x 36"
I am back with another fast and easy table runner for you using the GO! Qube Mix & Match 12" Block set. It is so neat to have 8 different dies in such a handy self-contained storage system! There are 13 block patterns included on small cards plus you can get a free 72 block pattern booklet that will give you all kinds of ideas for ways to use the dies.
Materials Needed:
I used beautiful batik fabrics that are from Island Batik's French Roasted collection.
Dark Brown – ¼ yard
Cream – ¼ yard
Light Brown – ¼ yard
Brown – ¼ yard – 3 – 2 ½" strips for binding
Backing – 42" x 18"
Batting – 42" x 18"
GO! Fabric Cutter:
GO! Big Electric Fabric Cutter (55500)
GO! Cutting Dies:
GO! Qube Mix & Match 12" Block
I started out using the Mosaic block pattern which is included but changed it just a little.
Follow the cutting directions below.
Shape 4: GO! Quarter Square Triangle-6″ Finished Square
Cut – 8 dark brown
Cut – 6 cream
Cut – 4 light brown
Shape 5: GO! Half Square Triangle-3″ Finished Square
Cut – 36 cream
Cut – 8 dark brown
Cut – 4 light brown
Shape 6: GO! Square on Point-4 3/4″ (4 1/4″ Finished)
Cut – 2 light brown
Cut – 1 dark brown
- Use a ¼ inch seam allowance throughout and press to the dark side.
- Follow the diagram below and piece your blocks making 6 flying geese sections by adding 2 half square triangles (5) to each quarter square triangle (4).
- Next add 4 half square triangles (5) to each square on point (6).
- Layout each block as shown and sew together.
Make 3 blocks using the picture below for your fabric placement for the center block.Join the blocks together, add your backing and batting and quilt as desired. I used a small feather design in the center of my blocks.Quilt and add your binding for a fast and easy table runner.I hope you enjoyed this tutorial for a easy quilt pattern and I hope you make one…..or two table runners. The blocks and projects you can make with the AccuQuilt GO! Qube 12 are endless!
The carpet is in!!! I moved a few things into my new studio yesterday and plan on moving more in today. Builder Bob is also going to work on a wall treatment that I'll be showing you soon!

Newport-Mesa budget projects future growth
The Newport-Mesa Unified Board of Education on Tuesday night unanimously approved a budget for the 2013-14 school year that plans for a stable future as property values recover from the recession.
"This is the most optimistic budget we've seen in five years," Deputy Superintendent Paul Reed said. "A year ago we were planning for the worst if Prop. 30 (Gov. Jerry Brown's tax measure) failed. We were going to lose $10 million, and we were going to have to make cuts. Now we're beginning to recover and stabilize."
The budget anticipates $236 million in total General Fund revenue for the 2013-14 school year, showing the first sign of projected growth since 2008. The district last year saw a higher budget of $254 million, but that was due to a one-time spike in revenue from the dismantling of redevelopment agencies statewide, Reed said.
Property taxes, which account for the majority of Newport-Mesa's revenue, are also expected to stabilize after plummeting in 2008. The district projects a 2.8 percent increase in property taxes, for a total of $189.6 million. That increase is expected to stay about the same for 2014-15.
One of the biggest changes for most school districts in the coming year is the state's new Local Control Funding Formula, which gives districts the freedom to decide how best to spend state funding.
The new funding formula, however, won't have much of an effect on Newport-Mesa because the district is designated as a "basic aid" school district. A basic aid district has property tax revenue that exceeds the total general purpose funding that the state would have provided. As a result, the district is funded largely through local property taxes and receives minimal state funding.
"We won't see a great improvement of revenue with (Local Control Funding), and we won't see any reimbursement, but we aren't being hurt either," Reed wrote in the budget. "As a community-funded school district we can expect a slow but steady improvement in our funding in the years to come. We've weathered the storm."
"The strength of Newport-Mesa will be its own recovering property values, a much more secure funding source than the annual determinations of the state legislature," he wrote.
In one change in the coming year, the district plans to spend $4.5 million to prepare for the demands of the new Common Core State Standards.
Reed said it's still unclear whether Newport-Mesa will receive additional state funding to help implement Common Core. Nonetheless, the district has made Common Core a priority this year to assure teachers are prepared for the major overhaul in education, he said.
For the first time since 2007, the district's expenditures are expected to grow, mainly due to increases in employee health care costs under the Affordable Care Act.
For 2013-14, the district plans to spend $233.4 million, up from $225 million in 2012-13. By 2014-15, expenditures are expected to reach $238.7 million.
Superintendent Fred Navarro said the district will have to make changes to offset future costs.
"The Affordable Care Act has changed the landscape and we can no longer work within the same paradigm," he wrote in the budget. "We will have to come to terms that one way or another, our costs will dramatically increase and no matter how you look at it, it's going to hit everyone's pocketbook."

Eleanor Tiernan
Eleanor Tiernan abandoned her civil engineering training to become a stand-up in 2004 – and within her first year appeared on RTE's The Liffey Laughs and BBC's One Night Stand.

Cat Laughs, Kilkenny 2016
If there was a recurring theme to this year's Cat Laughs comedy festival in Kilkenny, it was shock and awe at the city's proud new statue of hurling players entwined in aerial combat, with few comics slow to note the fierce homo-eroticism radiating from the bronze in the sunshine.
On stage, there were mixed fortunes for visiting Brits. Both Nish Kumar and James Acaster delivered sets that were damningly critical of our Empire and colonial legacy, a subject the Irish know a little about.
Despite Kumar's self-mockery of his status as a critically acclaimed comic who sells no tickets, he aced his headlining spot with bullish delivery, even if the target was largely his own behaviour at music gigs. In a traditionally mono-ethnic nation like Ireland, he's well aware of the disconnect between his accent and complexion. But it's his own pompous self-righteousness that led him into gritty criticisms of Britain's behaviour in Australia and India, mixing the personal and the political to great effect.
In marked contrast, Acaster was a beaten man before he even walked on. By the time I caught him over the weekend, he'd had three people tell him they were his heckler from the previous show, part of a trend stretching back years that invariably sees him begin with an apology to Irish crowds for being so very English.
Partly, you sense, his fate has become a self-fulfilling prophecy, as there seemed genuine sympathy for him from an audience moved by his simmering pique. However, even at this show there was an interrupting dolt that chimed in with inexplicable and unwanted contributions.
Denigrating the English, brilliantly satirising the British Museum's looting through a pernickety critique of its giftshop, Acaster still couldn't see himself emerging triumphant. There's grisly entertainment value in seeing a usually composed master of his art perform though a red mist. But perhaps Kilkenny's 20-minute spots aren't the best format for a crowd to get a bead on his off-kilter persona.
Acaster featured as part of an odd gig all round, a compelling line-up that also featured David O'Doherty and returning emigres Maeve Higgins, Chris Kent and Eleanor Tiernan. The latter carried on Acaster's war of attrition with the crowd, reacting with fury to the punter who greeted her arrival by pointing out she's Tommy Tiernan's cousin. Her anger at the slight seemed justified as she's a perennially underrated performer, with Ireland's abortion laws adding further grist to her mill and her recent move to London adding cultural friction to her more daydreamy musings.
Kent, similarly, hasn't had to look too hard for evidence of potato-inspired racism against him in England, though as with Tiernan, he winningly casts doubt on his testimony as a reliable witness. The young Corkman has matured into a truly gifted storyteller with a deceptively naturalistic style. And if he can eke as much gold out of his new baby as he can his recent marriage, he'll secure his overdue Edinburgh Fringe breakthrough.
Higgins has little need of such exposure, having bypassed all that for New York. How her intimate, conversational delivery plays over there I'd love to see but the social differences she notes afford her an intriguing transatlantic novelty. Contrasting the casual sophistication of Gotham dating with the furious drinking and grinding of Irish hook-ups, her honesty and robust-but-whimsical attitude towards her body issues have only strengthened her warmly engaging, distinctive voice.
Elsewhere, Gearoid Farrelly impressed with a set advocating against Ireland's gay marriage legislation, largely based on his own experience of moving in with his boyfriend, his sarcastic wit and working-class chippiness sustaining some gleefully caustic routines that got a great reception.
Al Porter, similarly, stormed with his disclosures of bringing men back to his parents' house for the first time. At once a throwback to the likes of Frankie Howerd with his fondness for innuendo and slavery to showbusiness, his frank, out-and-proud tales and cutting, occasional cruelty define him as both fluffy and spiky, surely an irresistible combination for the 23-year-old's inevitable march to stardom.
Jason Manford and Bernard O'Shea both capably trod the tricky line of sharing how much they fear, loathe and resent their kids, while never leaving you in any doubt how much they love them. The Mancunian momentarily lets dark thoughts interrupt his everyman relateability, while the Irishman's feverish imagination conjures up crazed alternative scenarios for family incidents, potential disgraces for when he finally snaps.
Finally, credit to Jason Byrne. Routinely guilty of declaring each audience or night as the maddest he's ever experienced, at successive shows he nevertheless conjured terrifically entertaining mayhem from dragging blokes up to flounder through all the prop-based nonsense he's barking them through.
Playing the disturbed ringmaster, who can't understand his marks' inability to carry out his demented demands, he persuasively creates entire characters for them from just the briefest responses. An admirable skill that perhaps doesn't get enough recognition.

and some other hardware, like motor
But how can I read with the same precision also when motors will be on?
I have yet to see an accurate measure of battery life in a varying load environment, just look how accurate the average lap top is.
The best we can do is to select some minimum battery voltage below which is not safe for the battery or not reliable for system operation. Then we can monitor the battery voltage and shut down the system at this pre-determined minimum voltage.

The Report's View: The Venezuelan defence sector is set to continue to be the largest in Latin America in terms of expenditure, which we project at USD3.5bn in 2015. However, in terms of production Venezuela will remain an insignificant player in the world arms market. Although falling oil prices are set to lead to budget cuts, we believe that military spending will be maintained.
Venezuela relies on oil export receipts to fund government spending, and rapidly falling oil prices in the final months of 2014 heighten the existing risks from economic mismanagement and political instability. While we estimate a decline in GDP growth of 2.5% in 2014, and believe a recessionary environment will prevail in 2015, we do not believe that the government will default in the coming year at least. Moreover, the defence budget will continue to rise despite inevitable budget cuts. We forecast defence spending to reach the USD6bn mark in 2019. This view is reinforced by the military's influence in government affairs and the fact that it is in President Nicolás Maduro's interest to keep the military on side in the face of his waning popularity.
Venezuela is set to remain an insignificant player in the global arms market. In the absence of a domestic defence manufacturing sector, it relies on imports. Although the country has developed a number of successful international partnerships, for example with Russia and China, Venezuela suffers from a US embargo of arms deals, limiting its access to cutting-edge technology.
Venezuela's weapon's imports will continue on an upward trajectory, with defence expenditure set to increase from USD3.5bn in 2015 to USD6.1bn in 2019. Arms and ammunition imports will increase by an annual average of 2.7% over the forecast period, from USD9.5mn to USD10.6mn in real terms.

Quote from the review:
"ALTHOUGH SCSI DRIVES have long boasted higher reliability, longer warranties, faster spindle speeds, and generally better performance than IDE and Serial ATA drives, SCSI storage density has been one step behind. Today's largest Serial ATA drives offer 400GB of storage capacity, and while these exotic monsters are rare, 200-250GB SATA drives are widely available for as low as $130. In the SCSI world, most drives top out at around 147GB. They generally spin at 10,000RPM

George McCrae
With disco kings Harry Casey and Richard Finch of KC & the Sunshine Band producing and writing his output on Henry Stone's T.K. label, McCrae found a hit on his first try with "Rock Your Baby," originally intended as a single for Gwen. It topped charts around the world, and he rapidly returned with the double-sided hit "I Can't Leave You Alone"/"I Get Lifted," but fads being fickle, McCrae's fortunes slipped as the decade progressed. Although he continued recording during the '80s and '90s, he charted only in England with 1984's "One Step Closer (To Love)." After a long absence from recording and releasing material, he returned in 2009 with Time for a Change, an album issued in Germany. Seven years later he released Love, a set that warmly embraced his soul and disco roots. It was released in the U.S. through eOne. ~ Bill Dahl & John Bush

Survival of 'freedom, democracy'
From top to bottom, Japanese society seems to be growing more introverted and to be shedding its openness toward the outside world. Can the ideal of "freedom and democracy" survive this trend?
For Chikako Nakayama's latest contributions to The Japan Times, see below:
From top to bottom, Japanese society seems to be growing more introverted and to be shedding its openness toward the outside world. Can the ideal of "freedom and democracy" survive this trend?
The primary role of taxes — the redistribution of money for social security and welfare purposes — has been neglected, hidden by the more pressing need to reduce debt.
It is not fair to underestimate compensation for disaster damage in the name of general interest. This is an area where ordinary cost calculations should be discarded.
For those Japanese who grumble about low voter turnouts in local and national elections, or who complain about the secretive character of political procedures, the open, democratic process of the recent Scottish referendum on independence was an object of envy.
We must be watchful of attempts by DNA testing services to sell the private data they've accumulated from people to other companies for their own profit.
The proposed BRICS-led development bank sounds promising for developing countries in Asia and Africa, as it may exercise indirect influence on the activities of those development banks that reflect the intentions of their national governments.
Is Japan experiencing a real economic recovery or an attempt by the Abe administration to cheer people up with the appearance of lively labor markets?
International sports events such as the upcoming World Cup Championship in Brazil have become a severe burden on host countries. Haven't we had enough of this slapstick?
Although many Japanese seem indifferent to the question of whether they can get whale meat, pro and con reactions in and out of Japan will affect those who still live by whale hunting on a local scale.
Attempts to save on remittance fees by using bitcoins could lead to an addiction, which in turn risks the loss of one's savings.
