From 24th October, we're replacing the Hometrack House Price Survey with the new UK House Price City Index, tracking house prices across 20 UK cities, plus regions.
Why the change?
The Monthly National Housing Survey is based on the answers to 11 questions we have been asking agents and surveyors for the last 14 years. When we started in 2000, data on the housing market and the underlying trends was hard to obtain and since then we have collected data from over 3.5m agents.
The changing availability of market data means it is possible to analyse trends based on real data rather than surveys and, perhaps more importantly, drill this data down to a more localised level. This approach of using data and insight to deliver answers to help businesses make better decisions is what Hometrack does day to day in the UK, Australia and Europe.
What is the UK House Price City Index?
Hometrack has been producing localised house price indices for the last 12 years based on recorded sales and mortgage valuations. These localized indices are a key component of our automated valuation model which is used by four of the top 5 lenders in the UK. This series of highly granular indices has remained proprietary to Hometrack and unpublished to date.
We've now decided to publish a set of indices using the same underlying data and methodology for 20 UK Cities. Alongside these City series we will be making available monthly house price indices for the UK, English Government Regions, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland via our website.
Hometrack's Monthly UK House Price City Index will offer a detailed yet digestible analysis on monthly changes in house prices for 20 key cities across the UK enabling a narrative and discussion on the market at a sub-regional level. Cities are the focus of economic and demographic change in the UK and globally. The recent independence debate in Scotland and its impact on Government means greater focus on cities and city regions as a policy base. Cities create platform analysis of other important metrics such as housing affordability, new supply and the rental market.
What makes it unique?
The Hometrack UK City House Price Indices are unique in that:
City house price growth slows to 6.4%. Manchester fastest growing city as London slips to 10th in growth rankings. New analysis of city turnover reveals large increases and falls. Overall city turnover expected to be flat in 2017.
City level house price inflation is running at 6.9% while growth in London (6.4%) is running at its lowest level for 4 years and set to slow further. House prices in many regional cities where the recovery has been muted have material upside so long as the economy continues to grow and mortgage rates remain low.
House price inflation in Manchester hits 12 year high. Growth in regional cities continues to overhaul London which dropped to 7th in the city house price growth rankings for 2016. Bristol is still the fastest growing city +9.6% but could be overtaken by Manchester in Q1.
City level house price growth is running at 7.7%, in line with our projections this time last year. We expect city house price growth to slow to 4% in 2017 with weaker growth in London and other southern cities offset by sustained growth in large regional cities.

Independent Indian carrier IndiGo is to inaugurate a new direct air service to Singapore Changi Airport from Chennai, adding to its existing links to the Asian hub from Delhi and Mumbai. The carrier will launch the new route from March 1, 2013 and has revealed it also plans to operate to Singapore from both Bangalore and Hyderabad in the future.
IndiGo introduced flights to Singapore in September 2011 as part of its expansion into international markets. It initially introduced flights from Delhi but supplemented them from October 2011 with a link from Mumbai. Both routes are served using a 180-seat Airbus A320 with a daily schedule and India's fastest-growing carrier will offer a similar operation on this new route from Chennai.
"There are strong trade and tourism ties between southern region of India and Singapore and travellers have requirements of low fares by an Indian airline. With rising business and tourism stemming from the region, IndiGo is determined to provide the best travel experience to all those who wish to fly to Singapore from southern part of the country," said Aditya Ghosh, President, IndiGo.
The Chennai – Singapore route is already served by Air India, its low-cost division Air India Express, SilkAir, Singapore Airlines and budget carrier Tiger Airways but IndiGo will not be put off by the competition. In the first twelve months of serving the Delhi – Singapore and Mumbai – Singapore it had secured 24 per cent and 16 per cent shares of the O&D traffic on the routes.
In 2011 an estimated 575,000 O&D passengers travelled between Chennai and Singapore with approximately 125,000 additional passengers making use of the hub connections to transfer on to other destinations. One-way air fares on the route average $158. Data shows that IndiGo's debut in the market between India and Singapore has seen average air fares decline. On the Delhi route IndiGo's fares during its first year of operations were recorded to be less than a third of the market average cost, a price difference that is even larger on the Mumbai route.
IndiGo is now exploring further growth and adding a fourth and fifth destination to its growing Singapore Changi routes. "We are also exploring flight operations to Singapore from Hyderabad & Bangalore in the near future. Our affordable fares on these new routes will further grow the market and benefit travelers," said Aditya Ghosh.
The Bangalore – Singapore market is already served by SilkAir, Singapore Airlines and Tiger Airways, while SilkAir and Tiger Airways also operate on the Hyderabad – Singapore route. In 2011 an estimated 144,000 O&D passengers flew between Bangalore and Singapore paying an average one-way fare of $307, while approximately 53,000 O&D passengers flew between Hyderabad and Singapore paying an average one-way fare of $252.
In the table below we highlight the largest O&D operators between India and Singapore for the twelve months ending September 2012, a period during which IndiGo has managed to secure a notable 8.3 per cent share of the point-to-point demand.

Paperback, 214 Pages
Prints in 3-5 business days
Ten year old Justine has lived with the loss of her mother for two years. Even while she misses her Mom, she is discovering the gifts they share. When bullying at school makes Justine's life miserable she befriends a tree she calls Drasil. It isn't fair that life causes so much pain for Justine, so her father is happy when she makes a new friend, even when that friend is a tree.
She tells stories of visiting a land where peace is valued above everything else and hospitality is the primary virtue. Her father listens to her stories and marvels at how she changes, even as he wonders if her stories are true or the fantasy of a lonely young girl. When the stories get darker and more dangerous he worries that she is being hurt even in this land of peace.
He has no idea how much they will both be changed as they get caught up in the struggle between a people who believe in peace, and those who trust in war.

Sci fi/Fantasy image by
John BeckwithKeep in mind that I drew this long AFTER I saw Return of the Jedi in the theater and long BEFORE I heard the news that George Lucas was going to actually make the three prequels. Also keep in mind that in my sketch diary, the actual page before this one has the familiar Star Wars font surrounding the question, 'What if the Emperor had turned the child of Vader to the dark side?' Naturally, at the time I drew this most people hadn't seen or thought about Star Wars in a while. So, the intended result (I was so proud of how often this caught people off guard when they turned the page) was that most folks would expect to see an evil Luke. Heh heh heh. 'There is another Skywalker.' There are things I like and things I don't like about this older illustration of mine. I liked the way Carrie Fisher's face came out, although in retrospect I could have done a more original armor design. However, I'm placing it here because over the years, this illustration has turned out to be the possibly most well-liked drawing, according to all the people who have paged through my sketch diaries over the years.

A 33-ft-long sperm whale washed ashore near Podampeta off the Ganjam coast in Odisha, about 50 km from the city of Berhampur, days after a similar incident in Mumbai.
"We don't know the reason for its death. The whale might have died two days ago, and washed ashore yesterday," said Divisional Forest Officer (Berhampur) A K Behera.
"It might have died after being hit by fishing trawlers," said Professor KC Sahu of Marine Sciences Department of the Berhampur University.
Locals spotted the carcass and informed the officials, said Secretary of Ganjam District Sea Turtle Protection Committee Rabindra Sahu.
Sperm whale is the largest toothed whale in the world. It can stay submerged for about 90 minutes and can dive down to 2,250 meters, officials said.
The site where the whale has washed up is also the rookery for Olive Ridley sea turtles.

It was around this time an amazing wrap-around, wood paneled porch with copper ceiling panels and a gorgeous Chinese globe chandelier was added. Gerald Pomeroy Interiors had the good fortune to re-decorate this porch in an exceptionally tasteful way, with a respectful nod to the house's lineage.

« Back to Where We Work
ICAP began working in Zimbabwe in 2015, partnering with the Ministry of Health and Child Care (MOHCC) to conduct ZIMPHIA, a population-based HIV survey.
Our work has expanded since to include capacity building across the health system to collect and use strategic information that can guide Zimbabwe's national HIV response.
Current Programs
HIV Impact Assessment Survey (PHIA Project)
ICAP is providing technical assistance to the MOHCC to conduct the Zimbabwe Population-based HIV Impact Assessment (ZIMPHIA) survey to assess HIV prevalence, incidence, and access to prevention, care, and treatment services. The survey includes household-based interviews and HIV counseling and testing for adults and children. Survey findings will be used to assess the impact of Zimbabwe's HIV response at the national level and to help guide and target future investment and programs. (funded by PEPFAR through the CDC)
Strengthening Strategic Information for Health
ICAP is providing technical assistance to strengthen epidemiology and strategic information (SI) to inform evidence-based HIV programs and policy. Activities aim to support the MOHCC to plan and coordinate SI activities, improve monitoring and evaluation, and enhance surveillance systems to characterize the HIV epidemic and effectiveness of the response. The scope of work also includes strengthening human resources to support country ownership of sustainable SI activities.

Only 16,268 bothered to turn up at Elland Road and most Leeds supporters had already streamed out in frustration when Jay Bothroyd lashed in the 90th-minute winner. Those that stayed vented their feelings. "Blackwell, time to go", was heard loud and clear.
That was harsh, but Leeds is a demanding club to manage. It does not matter to those fans that Leeds played the better football here, and would have won comfortably with a touch more incisiveness in front of goal. All that matters is the fact that their once proud club is mired in the bottom half of the Championship.
Kevin Blackwell pointed out that Leeds' debt, which was £12m when they were relegated, could be reduced to as little as £4m this time next year. That reflects well on Blackwell, who has moulded together a competitive outfit despite severe restraints, but the supporters' only barometer of success is on field results.
Leeds' new-found bad habit of conceding late goals haunted them again, Bothroyd's fierce 30-yard winner was the fifth time that they have conceded in the last 10 minutes this season. Luck is not with Blackwell's team and the Leeds manager thinks the fans should realise that. "They haven't got a lot to moan about. When you look at that team, you wouldn't say that's a team who's in trouble.''
Leeds could have won by half-time against a haphazard Wolves. Ian Moore was denied by Matt Murray from a tight angle, and Matthew Kilgallon then came close with a flicked header from a Gary Kelly corner. Murray produced two more sharp saves before half-time, first from Moore, and then a close-range Seb Carole strike.
Wolves were more alert after the break, and gave Leeds a few uncomfortable moments with crosses. But they were given a warning when Murray spilled a Stephen Crainey free-kick and Gary Breen had to block a goal-bound follow-up from Paul Butler.
Leeds were galvanised and Breen came to the rescue again in the 86th minute when he cleared a Steve Stone header off the line. Wolves manager Mick McCarthy admitted there was little in the game. "We've scored and they haven't. That's the difference.''
Goal: Bothroyd (90) 0-1.
Leeds United (4-4-2): Warner; Kelly, Butler, Kilgallon, Crainey; Carole, Douglas, Westlake, Lewis (Stone, 84); Healy, Moore (Beckford 78). Substitutes not used: Sullivan (gk), Gregan, Blake.
Wolves (4-4-2): Murray; Edwards, Breen, Craddock, Mulgrew (Little, 43); Henry, Potter, Olofinjana, Jones; Johnson (Clarke, 76), Cort (Bothroyd, 45) Substitutes not used: Ricketts, Ikeme (gk).

Riley Cooper is on the run. Misha Tokarev, the love of his life, turned out to be an assassin for the Russian mob, and when it comes to character flaws, Riley draws the line at premeditated murder. Alien armor system McClane is also on the run, for reasons that include accidentally crashing a space ship into Earth and evading U.S. military custody. A failed prototype, McClane was scheduled for destruction. Sabotaging the ship put an end to that, but McClane is dubbed a bone rider for good reason-he can't live without a host body. That's why he first stows away in Riley's truck and then in Riley himself. Their reluctant partnership soon evolves into something much more powerful-and personal-than either of them could have imagined. Together, they embark on a road trip from hell, made all the more exciting by the government troops and mob enforcers hot on their trail. Misha is determined to win Riley back and willing to do whatever it takes to keep him safe. When hitman and alien join forces, they discover their impressive combined potential for death and destruction. It will take everything Riley has to steer them through the mess they create.

"For a kid who just got her driver's license, she's tough as nails. She's one of the toughest sophomores I've ever seen. She doesn't get rattled by anything; she loves to pitch and she works hard at it."
Pete Hoffman
"Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love."
Neil Gaiman
"It is tough in every game you are out there at one of the toughest positions. I normally make a lot more plays than I made today like the play in the end zone. I really feel I should have caught that and I didn't."
Domonique Foxworth
"George is one of the toughest guys I've ever been around. He has that tough look, but mentally he's as tough as they get. To have him go through what he had to deal with last year ... it's probably worse now with his son."
Scott Brooks
"It's been tough for me, personally. Novak was the toughest one. He was 6-10, shooting 3s all over the court and getting screens set for him. I wasn't used to that; it really caught me off-guard. But it's an experience for me."
Hilton Armstrong
"I think we play in one of the toughest districts in the state, so it is going to be tough with a young lineup. But I feel like we are learning and starting to gel ... I really think we are starting to find an identity."
Casey Osborn
"Billy's tough, obviously. He's one of the toughest pitchers you're going to face in the league. If there's a spot where you want to take a chance, you want to do that on the base paths. Chances are you're not going to string two base hits against him, so it's worth taking a little bit of a risk."

iPBX SIP Trunking
It's time for your phone system to get a makeover.
Even if your phone system was installed back in the day when parachute pants were cool, you can still gain some of the advantages of hosted voice over IP (VoIP). With iPBX SIP Trunking from DSCI, you can easily implement the advanced features of VoIP while keeping your existing telecom infrastructure.
iPBX SIP Trunking sends the voice traffic from your current phone system over the same Internet connection you're already using for data, eliminating the need for a separate voice connection. This service provides VoIP features such as bundled usage, extension dialing between sites, and support for remote users. iPBX SIP Trunking also supports legacy interfaces on your phone system (such as PRI, CAS T1, or analog), helping you to avoid costly upgrades.
Benefits to Your Organization
With iPBX SIP Trunking, you can "bring your own" Internet connection or use DSCI's connectivity services. As your business grows, you can add additional trunk call capacity and bundled minutes. If you later decide to take full advantage of the benefits of VoIP, you can easily transition to DSCI's UCx Hosted Unified Communications Service.
Enhanced productivity
iPBX SIP Trunking supports your business with advanced features such as auto attendants, hunt groups, call recording, and mobile integration. Additionally, remote workers can be part of the enterprise group and have access to the same features.
Cost-effective solutions
Usage is bundled into the service cost. Multiple offices not only share trunk capacity, but because they're part of the same enterprise group, calls between the sites are free. Access to local, long distance, and toll-free service is over the same circuit.
iPBX SIP Trunking will bring your phone system into the new millennium – but it's up to you about keeping those old parachute pants. Contact DSCI today to start your project or request further information.

Some troubling news about Guitar Hero 3. A recent interview with RedOctane co-founder Kai Huang revealed that the Wii version will not be online for its release.
"There won't be online initially for the Wii, but we're working with Nintendo to see how we can get those features in".
My feeling is that it probably won't happen. Looks like Big N are still holding out on third parties when it comes to online features. How much longer before this starts hurting the Wii?

True, I think while it's not hurting console sales, it must be hurting game sales. I'm sure some fps's could really have benefited with some online. Maybe it's something to do with the position for first 3rd person online has been sold, and the contract can't be broken? I think it's meant to be battalion wars?

Gosh! Nintendo sometimes you tick me off! It all about the online when it comes to video game system.
lman07 said:
That's so frustrating. Not two days ago did I get on there website and the box and the wifi sticker.
Zendalf said:
Big woop! Like the online play would have been any good! Honestly, the online play would probably only be a downer to the game. My opinion.
Wiimaster said:
Nintendo states they want online play but holds out on games from third parties until 2008? Come on Nintendo.
BrothaZ said:
*sighs* dammit.
jskrdude said:
Why is Nintendo doing this to us?
Keranu said:
God damn it, Nintendo.
Quartz said:
Dude, why can't Nintendo just host an online service? So lame.
Super King said:
Maybe it's just because I'm such a Nintendo fan, but I never thought internet should be that big a part of consoles anyway. Internets are for your computer (PC- PERSONAL computer), you play by yourself unless you can connect to others on the internet. However, on consoles there are (usually) 4 controller ports, which means that you should get together your good (real) friends and play together in the same room, share some laughs, etc. I'd much rather do that than get yelled at on Halo 2 by complete strangers.
Aleric735 said:
Not long. I love the Guitar Hero series, but this is going to be a huge blow to my thoughts about getting it now. I mean, it's already $90 to begin with, and now it won't have the same features as the other console versions? What the heck? Come on Nintendo! Your online definitely isn't the easiest thing to get along with already (acquiring friends) and NOW you're going to strip your players of even more bonus features? Even though I love the songs on this installment, I'll probably just wait and see what happens with the online. I will not drop that much money on something I'll still have access to through friends, without having at LEAST the same abilities as their versions.
Nova said:
Not too long unfortunately, my xbox loving friends are already holding it against me.
divinity boy said:
This was one of the main reasons why GH3 was gonna rock. What's up Nintendo?
Gonzo said:
To me it doesn't really matter because I don't play online. But, I know one thing for the players who do play online, it hurts.
a what said:
That really sucks. I mean the whole fact that you could play against an actual professional musician and kick their ass. That's the whole reason I was going to buy it, it will hurt the Wii.
Koen van Beeck said:
Sure, make the Wii version the least appealing one, why don't you?
DragonFoxCoon said:
Here we go again.
Scooby Jew said:
Whoa now, that hurt pretty deep. I was actually looking forward to this GH. I'm sure my brother will still get it, but that would be so awesome to play against somebody you've never met before and totally stomp them. Oh well, I guess all I can do right now is hate and wait.
Rocker4isu said:
Actually what this means is that Wii will have online play right from the start, but will not have downloadable content such as songs yet. Another article on this website says what I am saying about this.
mytacostand said:
I have to go along with what mostly everyone else is saying; what's going on Nintendo? When I first bought the Wii I was really excited with the motion sensitivity and what not. However, now that I realize how inferior the Wii is to the 360 and PS3, I am getting really annoyed. I am annoyed because our 3rd party games are suffering. Devs don't want to bring games to the Wii because it is so low tech and Nintendo is so strict about their online policy. I am still really looking forward to GH3, and I have the money for it all saved up, but if it doesn't have online for the Wii, then I am giving up on it. Nintendo has to realize that their only customers are 10 year olds, they also have some hardcore gamers that want to rock online. Lighten up Nintendo.
Andrew said:
I'm sure the Wii version of guitar hero 3 will still be awesome. I was never counting on Nintendo's online play. But they better have it for smash bros.

I was awakened this morning with beautiful, sparkly sunshine hitting me in the face. After seemingly endless rainfall and dreary days, this was a glorious surprise! Many
prayers are still going out to the farmers and other people that are actually suffering financially and otherwise from this destructive season. I found it ironic that I usually return to the US from my volunteer work in Africa this time of year, in part, to escape the heavy rains of the "rainy season" in Africa - oh well!
Usually, I suffer less pain from my osteoarthritis while I'm in Africa. This year, the US rainy season really made my joints (and seemingly all over) hurt more. I seldom use any pain meds for a variety of reasons. Some people have said to me, "Gee, if you don't use meds, then you must not have pain!" Not quite. I DO have pain much of the time, but, for me, I try not to use them. When my doctors and I have tried a variety of them, we haven't come up with the product that works for me, so, I have preferred to stay off instead.I have been in warm water physical therapy for the last month (three times per week) to strengthen my left leg and try to improve my balance which continues to deteriorate due to my osteoarthritis. I've had nine orthopedic surgeries so far with my disease. I assume that I'm doing better (at least in the pool) because my therapist continues to add to my ankle weights (or she's trying to drown me)! Next week, land therapy will also be added.
I become very frustrated at times because my body doesn't do as I wish - many readers can relate to that. But I also am very grateful that my orthopedic surgeons have the skills and equipment to provide me with the artificial joints that I need. (I need to remember that I'm almost 70 years old and probably won't make the US Olympic Track Team. Of course, odds are I wouldn't have made it without this disease either).
When I was first diagnosed with this disease over 15 years ago, I was devastated, and assumed, like many of our readers, that my life was essentially over. I've always been an adventurous person, and since I'm a photo-journalist, couldn't figure out how this glitch, this diagnosis, could possibly fit into my life. After the first joint replacement, I assumed that my arthritis experience was OVER and I could resume my life as I knew it - yeah, right. I've had to learn to live with my disease. Yes, post-op, I've had restrictions, but usually not long-lasting. I've found that, in general, my life CAN continue - a huge part of it is attitude!
I couldn't mow my lawn because my mower is not self-propelled, and the whole lawn was just too much strain on my legs, but I found that if I do only the front one week, and the back, the next. I can keep it mowed without tearing up my legs. I do the same type of thing on many other household duties - I may only do half at one time (and the Good Housekeeping inspection team has yet to call).I've always admired Mt. Kilimanjaro in Africa, but realized that, with my disease, I shouldn't try climbing her; however, I chose an easier route and only went up half-way. And I will tell you: it made me feel very good about me. I didn't really have to do the whole thing! I always use wheelchair assistance in airports - it helps me get to the right boarding place and quite often qualifies me for early boarding. I prefer this to tripping over the scrambling hordes! I'm finally (kind of) learning to ask for help - whether it be something physical or simply when I need clarification on something.
Probably most important, I'm re-learning how to laugh, to TRY to not take things seriously all of the time. Last week I happened to see a national survey on which part of a chocolate bunny should be eaten first. At that time, I commented to a friend that I'd never eaten one, so had no frame of reference. The next day, I was given a chocolate bunny. This reminded me of other silly food discussions we've had over the years - ie. which part of a piece of candy corn should be eaten first? I realize that these things are just fun for many of us, and some people have no clue why we do it. The reality for me is it's just fun!In the midst of horrible tornadoes, flooding, wars, and, of course sometimes excruciating osteoarthritis pain, I need to be able to think about something silly. So, for today, the sun is out. Hopefully the storms have lessened, and my daffodils and tulips are happily swaying in the breeze.
I will continue to use my catch phrase - WATCH ME - I will try not to let my OA control my life!
Asante sana

One of the challenges in protecting air quality is that air is invisible. Therefore, air is one of those things often taken for granted. Pollutants in the air from activities such as driving motor vehicles and burning make the air unhealthy to breathe even when it looks clean. The Department of Ecology's Air Quality Program protects public health and the environment from pollutants caused by vehicles, outdoor and indoor burning, and industry.
The things people do that cause air pollution can have long-term consequences. Burning fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas causes gases to build up in our atmosphere and trap heat from the sun. Many scientists around the world agree that our planet's changing climate is a result of these activities. Ecology works with numerous state, national, and international partners to reduce the causes and impacts of climate change.

A history of gravity, and a study of its importance and relevance to our lives, as well as its influence on other areas of science.
Physicists will tell you that four forces control the universe. Of these, gravity may the most obvious, but it is also the most mysterious. Newton managed to predict the force of gravity but couldn't explain how it worked at a distance. Einstein picked up on the simple premise that gravity and acceleration are interchangeable to devise his mind-bending general relativity, showing how matter warps space and time. Not only did this explain how gravity worked – and how apparently simple gravitation has four separate components – but it predicted everything from black holes to gravity's effect on time. Whether it's the reality of anti-gravity or the unexpected discovery that a ball and a laser beam drop at the same rate, gravity is the force that fascinates.

It has previous broke with a light string and I called ArtBeads and they suggested I use this one. I'm very pleased with it and plan to purchase another but larger size one. 8 people found this review helpful Overall rating: Posted By: Messina verified customer More flexible than other brandsJuly 16, 2011 After trying the lighter version (.019) ZambaPro beading cable, I had to give the thicker version a try. Usually the heavier multi-strand cables are stiff and affect how a necklace will drape or hang, however even the .024 ZamaPro is incredibly supple. I would highly recommend this beading cable to my friends for use in their heavier weight jewelry designs. It is slightly more expensive than some brands but I think the suppleness of this product make it worth every penny. 10 people found this review helpful Overall rating: Posted By: SWoerner verified customer Overall rating: Posted By: Kelley verified customer Overall rating: Posted By: Irina verified customer Click here to review this product (Reviews are subject to approval) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

Why NOW???
Remember all the hype
over Y2K? It involved years of
preparation in order to avoid the possible end of the online world. Life as we
knew it was possibly going to come to a screeching halt.
Let's rewind to 1999 in Riley World. We would have just received R's autism diagnosis.
type of program are you doing?" Me: Ummmmm…what's a program???
you going to do ABA?"
Me: Isn't that the therapy that you hear about people losing their homes?
many hours of therapy are you doing every day?"
Me: Huhhhh…Riley's
5 years old. He can barely watch a half
hour of Barney. How is he going to sit
still for "hours" of therapy???
OMG!!! Are you kidding me??? I remember being so totally overwhelmed
and feeling like I missed the boat because he was already 5 and "they" kept talking about the importance
of "early intervention" and thinking maybe we were too late and…and…and…
For years I had planned no further than a year or
two (at most) ahead. Anxiety The thought of the future The Unknown
and all the "What will Riley be doing?"
or "Where will Riley live?" types of
questions were too overwhelming for me to think about. Stress When R
was little sometimes it took all my energy just to get through the day. Exhaustion
Whether it was sleeping issues Sleep Deprivation,
eating issues Worry, behavioural issues Frustration…
it all came down to me being in the right mindset Preparation to deal with "the stuff" in a calm Patience
and productive way Strategies without having a nervous breakdown (in my
case) or major Meltdown (in R's case) before we
even got started.
That was more than 10
years ago yet I can still get overwhelmed and have those 'What if……?'
feelings today. Only these days it is because Riley will turn 19 in just under
a year. Adulthood is staring me right in the face! When did THAT happen?!?
So in preparation for
life beyond Riley World, I needed to wrap my head around the fact that this
summer had to be THE summer to introduce Riley to some important life skills. I was ready. I was psyched. I was up for the challenge. Riley was going to be in for some
"Summer Fun" whether he was ready or not. Tee hee.
Yes I know we should have started earlier. Here's
the thing…even now at 19, J2 does not do his own laundry or cook meals or take
out the garbage on a regular basis. I know…shame on G!! *wink* The difference and there is a difference…when
the time comes for J2 to have to do these things on his own, he will be able to
"figure it out". Sure there will probably be some burnt meals or shrunken
clothes but no big deal. He will survive. Riley…uhhhh not so much.
We are three weeks into
July and have completed 6 loads of laundry, numerous trips taking out the
garbage and had a demonstration of washing rice. Thank you. :) Here is a little
snippet of how R has progressed since his first load of laundry. Still
muttering away but a lot less cussing.
At this rate Riley will
be ready to move out before J2! LOL!
6 comments:
that is FANTASTIC!!! Tommy has the same enthusiasm with the dishwasher lol Yet, he DOES it!!
ReplyDeleteRepliesI think I'll wait for the dishwasher until I want new dishes. R doesn't exactly have "gentle" hands when he's grumpy. LOL!
I'm starting to fade in my enthusiasm. Hope I can stay focused to start with the "sorting the laundry" process. *sigh*
Thanks for your enthusiastic support as always! DI
He does a better job then John! So far all I've gotten him to do is put the basket somewhere near the laundry room.
ReplyDeleteYou are an awesome lady! Riley is doing really well, too, even if the wet laundry is a little intense for him. I can't even fathom what it's going to be like when I have to start these survival skill drills at my house! Ay-yi-yi!!!

The siblings ruled over Clockwork Island for years in their headquarters, the Trump Castle, and forcing the scientists to build the King Cannon, a cannon that can fire devastating drilling cannon bullets. They planned to use the King Cannon to make their leader into the Pirate King, but met opposition from the Straw Hat Pirates alongside with Borodo and Akisu. Eventually, the entire Trump Siblings were defeated by the Straw Hat Pirates.
Crew StrengthEdit
The overall crew strength seems to be rather weak, despite having five bounties, two Devil Fruit users, and each commanding several crews of pirates (which is a large group altogether, similar to the Krieg Pirates). Three of the captains, Boo Jack, Skunk One, and Pin Joker were quickly defeated. Honey Queen, despite holding a Logia-class Devil Fruit, was easily captured. The overall leader, Bear King, was the only one who put up a longer fight, but was regardless defeated.
King CannonEdit
The King Cannon (キング砲 Kingu Hō?) is the ultimate weapon of the Trump Siblings. They had forced the scientists of Clockwork Island to build the weapon in order for Bear King to become the Pirate King. The weapon was ultimately destroyed when Luffy threw one of the bullets back and caused the glass ground below the cannon to shatter, with both the Cannon and Bear King falling off and exploding.
The King Cannon is a four-wheeled tank with a giant cannon barrel that resembles a screw mounted on it, decoratively designed with the four card suits (spade, heart, club and diamond). On the left side of the tank is a meter gauge that shows how much charge is achieved before the cannon can be fired, and the back is a feed ramp for the giant bullet-shaped cannonballs with drill-design. The cannon can fire these bullets with drilling force, which is strong enough to cause intense impact to create shock waves that can spread throughout a portion of the ocean.
Crew MembersEdit

Bear King | Honey Queen | Pin Joker | Boo Jack |
Skunk One | Donny | Danny | Denny |
- The Hyena Three who revealed Bear King's cannon were the ones that worked for El Drago and robbed the Straw Hats in the 1st One Piece movie.
- Their top members names refer to the most important cards of a deck of cards in which most card games revolve around - Jack, Joker, Queen, King and Ace.
- ↑ One Piece Movie 9, The bounties of the Trump Siblings are shown in the opening.
- ↑ One Piece Movie 2, The Trump Siblings were the main antagonists of Clockwork Island.

What do you learn during the TEFL certificate course? You learn the basics of teaching techniques and material development, the fundamentals of grammar and writing, and how to motivate and involve students. You'll get lesson plan ideas. In some cases the programs put you through a foreign language course so you can have the experience of being a language student yourself. Unless you're taking the course online, there will also be a "Teacher Practice" component, which teaches you to run a class in a real setting.There are hundreds of accredited schools that offer the TEFL. Most courses are affiliated with local language institutes and potential teaching positions, so taking the course in situ is a good way to scope out jobs and make contact with potential employers. Once you have your certificate, you can either accept a job in the country of study, or go elsewhere - the certificate is good all over the world.
Another option is to take the TEFL course online. This is often a cheaper option, and allows you to take the course part-time while continuing your day job. The main downside of taking the course online is that you miss out on the Teacher Practice component of the classroom certificate.
The cost of the certificate ranges from a few hundred dollars for the online option to a few thousand dollars on site, if meals and accommodation are included. Other than your BA and a TELF certificate, what else makes a successful teacher? There is no one formula, but it's safe to say that a certain amount of confidence is necessary, as well as creativity, flexibility and a genuine interest in helping others succeed.

No sound from the speaker, just randomly happened. Rebooting doesn't work. I have not rooted the phone. Any suggestions?
This happened to me too. However, I heard it starting to distort/fizzle out while I talking on speaker phone. I didnt even realize that the input beeps and clicks were silent until then. I restarted and tried doing a call again and it seemed to come back on after a few seconds of silence. My phone is rooted, has busybox, RyanZA's one click lag fix, and I enabled sideloading by database editing. What is the status of your phone now? What apps have you installed? Anything in relation to audio or music?
The only thing I do in relation to music is listen to pandora once in awhile. I don't have any media files. My phone has been lagging pretty badly lately which has been annoying. I don't have too many apps. Shazam, pandora, battery indicator, juice defender, atk, and a few small games and stuff. I haven't done anything to side load apps or anything to change stock ui.
i have not root my phone and i don't plan to do it in happy with it. but after reading alot of the posts where people is having problems with this phone all have 1 thing i common all are rooted. i haven't have any problem with my phone at all so maybe rooted users are making a mistake in doing that?
Hey Rocko20, Any update on your speaker issue? Have you gotten it to come back on or have you taken it back for an exchange?
I just started having this problem. Took the phone in to ATT they took battery out sim card out and sd card out, now it works fine.
Rooted Flashed I897UCJH3 firmware Overclocked to 1.2GHz with SRE v1.2.1a Lag Fix = Incredible performance + Fully functional GPS + Zero problems
mine stopped working yesterday,.... anyone have any other fixes tried taking out the batter and sim cards and that didn't work
speaker stop working on my capi... no fix yet. did any one try to take captivate apart to fix it. it appear that this is physical problem not software issue.
mine suddenly stopped working today - on the phone with samsung support for over an hour and no help at all - they say no one has had this problem - they want me to send in the phone for a six day repair
anybody find fix for this yet or have sent your phone in for a fix? mine randomly started this yesterday. i havent downloaded or even updated any of my apps in a week so thats not the problem. not rooted either so thats not the case. totally random and i'm aggravated as hell. really dont feel like starting fresh on the phone :\
@sero Try this: Remove the battery from the phone and, with your index finger, aggressively tap 1 time on the speaker grill. Reboot the phone and let me know how it goes.
I have the speaker phone issue too. One day I just noticed, zero sound. No fizzle, no on again off again. I called ATT and Samsung. Samsung offers a 2 day ship, 2 day fix, 2 day ship scenario with the original Mfr warranty date. ATT offers 0 down time, refurbed phone with the original mfr warranty date. I'm annoyed that a refurb doesn't have it's own warranty date. Why do we buy $200 phones that aren't even lasting a year now? I have pulled the battery, done a factory reset, pulled the SIM, pulled the SD....it must be hardware.
I've been also having speaker problem issues as well. Whenever it goes off, I tap on the back of the phone where the speaker is, and it comes back on, def a hardware problem it just started doing this is last week.
Great! Mine started doing this too. Very frustrating to miss calls. Pulling the battery and restarting only makes the speaker work for awhile...seems less and less. This phone was too expensive! It isn't even a year old yet!!
::::ALL WITH SPEAKER ISSUES:::: this is common problem with this phone regardless if rooted/ROM/non rooted. If your phone is under warranty (1 year) and your using a ROM, flash back to stock, ATT will replace it for you no issues (i did this monday). But make sure you back up all your stuff. they WONT back up DATA only contacts, so be sure you use titanium backup. And if u already have a stock rom. just take it to ATT youll be set. ::::IF NOT UNDER WARRANTY::: peep this guys website, hell replace the speaker for you CHEAP AS HELL! www.mobiletechvideos.com

CircleUp launches SmartPay: make social payments in AOL, Facebook + email
- 7
Newport Beach, CA – EMBARGO: March 4, 2009, 8AM ET – CircleUp, Inc., the leading group messaging service for membership Web sites, today launched SmartPay, a powerful new service for online payments made among members of groups and teams. SmartPay runs on the SmartMessage Platform, an innovative messaging service operating across multiple channels, partner destinations and platforms.
I don't normally spout press releases verbatim, but this opening paragraph is pretty good, so I'm making an exception. And I am keeping to the embargo of 08:00 Eastern Time (14:00 Amsterdam). Last time I did that, the US party involved broke their own embargo, but the Next Web was first to receive this news release, so I have a good feeling this time.
I like the cheeky way there's a "Collect Money By Email™" statement in the press release from Circle Up. I usually refer to '™' as 'Totally Meaningless' in a legal sense, but it signals an intent to 'own' the phrase. Good luck guys! But I do like the fact that the service uses Amazon Payments® – apart from the fact I'm not in the USA (of which, more later).
"We're hunting for awesome startups"
Run an early-stage company? We're inviting 250 to exhibit at TNW Conference and pitch on stage!
There's a short screencast to illustrate how SmartPay works, illustrated below:-
Teacher's and coach's gifts, group photos, event t-shirts, group transportation, group parties and meals etc have traditionally been paid with cash and cheques – and that's the area of pain that SmartPay zeroes in on.
And here's the killer touch:
Over 150 million AOL® and Facebook® members may log in directly to enroll in SmartPay and collect money by email at www.circleup.com without creating a new account by simply using their AOL or Facebook user name and password.
Now that's convenient. No new account, password, phishing worries or lost password anxiety. Just log in and ker-ching!
This is a game-changer, especially with the first 30 days free. And it's precisely in the area of small payments that it's likely to succeed – $0.99 per transaction under $20 is an easy-peasy number, as well as being a nice margin. If there are $140bn of transactions in this area as Circle Up's press release suggests, then even a small percentage of penetration into this market is likely to put a smile on their face and a few dollars in their pocket.
Solves a real problem – well
It's also making me smile for the the kudos of solving a real world problem that bugs people. "Service solves major pain point" is how they say it. I can say that as a parent, expenditure on nursery, school, team, dance class, tuition, outings, nights out and PTA / PSA events all would all benefit hugely from using this. And I'd be grateful to avoid the darn hassle of doing it the old-fashioned way. Integrating the service with social networks like Facebook or applications like Google Groups is a very smart move. And AOL members trust AOL, naturally. Being able to use and AOL or Facebook login is not just smart, it's pushing you towards buy-in to this service.
Negative Points: The issue of limited use outside the USA is still a slow-down feature, but you can't blame Circle Up for Amazon's limitations in scaling beyond Seattle. World class is as world class does. I can't sign up for Amazon Payments anywhere else other than in the US of A last time I tried, at 7am this morning. But I'm sure Amazon will fix that soon.
