Construction employment declines in Missouri in March
Construction employment in Missouri declined by 3.2 percent in March, according to an analysis of federal employment data from Associated General Contractors of America.
For the month, Missouri lost 3,400 construction industry jobs, falling to 104,400. The loss was the nation's largest decline for March.
In Kansas, construction employment rose by 0.4 percent — roughly 200 jobs — during March, bringing total employment up to 54,900.
Kansas' performance on the month ranked 27 of 50 states and the District of Columbia.
Year-to-year, the picture is very different. Compared with March 2012, both Missouri and Kansas saw declines in total construction employment.
In Kansas, the construction workforce shrunk by 1,800 jobs, or 3.2 percent, from March 2012. Missouri was slightly better, shrinking by 800 jobs, or 0.8 percent of the workforce, from the prior year.
The states' declines rank 43 and 34, respectively, of the 51 states and D.C.
Nationally, the expansion of the construction industry slowed in March. Only 30 states added workers in March, compared with 35 states adding workers in February.
However, Ken Simonson, the association's chief economist, said March was the 10th-straight month in which nationwide construction employment increased.
"The expansion appears poised to continue for residential and private nonresidential construction," Simonson said in a release. "But investment in infrastructure and public buildings is still on a downward path. That will keep employment down in states with a large federal presence."

"This word is rather tasty" ! November 22, 2006Posted by Sharath Rao in science, weird.
The nature and extent of diversity – especially in the number of ways things can go wrong – never ceases to amaze me.
Lexical-gustatories involuntarily "taste" words when they hear them, or even try to recall them, she wrote in a study, "Words on the Tip of the Tongue," published in the issue of Nature dated Thursday. She has found only 10 such people in Europe and the United States. One subject, Dr. Simner said, hates driving, because the road signs flood his mouth with everything from pistachio ice cream to ear wax. For example, the word "mince" makes one subject taste mincemeat, but so do rhymes like "prince." Words with a soft "g," as in "roger" or "edge," make him taste sausage. But another subject, hearing "castanets," tastes tuna fish. Another can taste only proper names: John is his cornbread, William his potatoes.
Read the complete article (again) if you dont the above. This is really weird.

keep it simple Mark 7:1-8, 14-15, 21-23
Jesus in Mark 7 fits right in line with the ancient prophets of Israel like Isaiah and Micah. They taught that what matters most in religious life aren't ritual actions. What mattered most for Jesus is the content of a worshiper's heart. Jesus was trouble for the Pharisee's who looked with scorn on his friends. They saw their unclean hands and eagerly wagged fingers. The ancient fathers wouldn't have approved they said chiding Jesus and his friends.
Read Mark 7:1-8 the animosity is palpable. Jesus met the hypocrisy of the pharisees head on. He knew that the heart of the worshipper mattered then--just as it does today. And He gave a really clear direction to us today as his followers in Mark 7:14-15. Focus more on what come out of us than what comes into us. It's a challenge in our age to look not with scorn on the world but to start by looking at what we say and do first. In Mark 7:20-23 Jesus' point is most clear to pay attention to what is coming out of you to know the state of your heard. The trouble with the Pharisee's was never their religion--rather it was their hearts and what came from inside of them. The church like the religions of the pharisees has long been filled with traditions, rules, and rule keepers. And Jesus confronted the pharisees as he would likely confront the ruler makers of the church today with strong words. Look at your heart. Repent of the ugly things. Turn back to God from the inside.
Worship is a Heart Matter, A few years ago a church in England put away it's instruments, band, and sound system for a season. Their pastor challenged them to focus on God in their midst rather than on what they could do. As David Schrader tells the story one of church's member, Matt Redman, wrote inspired by the experience about coming back to God.
When the music fades, all is stripped away, and I simply come / Longing just to bring something that's of worth that will bless your heart… / I'm coming back to the heart of worship, and it's all about You, JesusThere's a challenge for the church today--just the same as it was in Jesus day. Keep worship simple. In fact we are invited to live out our worship focused on God present in our midst. As a pastor I've committed my life to Word and Sacrament ministry--keeping Christ present in the Word of God, the Bread and Wine in Communion, and the water of baptism. Everything else--as important as it may seem today--might very well fade away: but Jesus present in Word, Bread, Wine, and Water will not fade. Many pastors seem to run scared today uncertain of the future--but with confidence We ought to move forward trusting that God is working in us and our churches today.
Keep it Simple our faith and our salvation as Christians starts and ends with trust in God. And we like to make it complicated. But the truth is we are saved by faith. Put aside the religious actions--what's at the heart matters. And for Chirstians faith is about confident trust in Jesus. We add extra steps and hoops to jump through--but God in love saves those who believe. Religious leaders especially invent disciplines and ritual practices for believers--but Jesus saves those who believe no those who fulfill every religious command.
I've been intrigued this week by a question David-Heim asked several theologians. How would you summarize the Christian faith? Limit the number of words you use to a small number: like 7 words. How do you explain what we believe and know about Jesus and who we are as the church in light of his saving death and resurrection?
Like Jesus confronting the Pharisees Heim is asking us in churches today to think clear and simple about faith in Christ.
here's my attempt to answer Heim's question.
Jesus died and rose freeing all believers
love one another as Jesus loves you
What's yours?

I have an ca 1928 36' by 28' two-story frame home with about an 8/12 pitch hip roof located in eastern Wisconsin about three blocks from Lake Michigan. There is a finished attic, but no insulation. The wall sheathing and cedar shake siding come up between the rafters to meet the roof decking. The sub floor in the attic continues past the knee walls and likewise continues between the rafters to meet the roof decking. The combination of wall sheathing plus attic sub-flooring make it totally impractical to create vents under the eaves. The obstruction to venting is compounded by the structure of the eaves, for the main roof rafters, which are 2x6 on 16 inch centers, do not continue beyond the wall. The eave rafters are decorative exposed rafters on 24 inch centers and are tied into the roof by resting on the top plate of the wall and by tying into blocking every other roof rafter bay about two feet in. On the top the interior finish on the hip roof does not permit any venting to flow to the top except in about the center 8 feet of the building, and that for only the front and rear panels. The finished side of the roof creates pockets everywhere the adjacent panels of the roof meet. The knee walls are only about 30 inches tall, so most of the roof is above the finished space.
I want to insulate the attic so this finished space is truly usable, but cannot determine what is the best course. As it is, it is too hot in summer (deforms plastic models) and too cold in winter.
Both fiberglass and cellulose (batts or blown) require venting and, I am told, so do asphalt shingles, lest they get too hot. (Mine are charcoal gray.) Some web sites say that sprayed in foam (or flow in slow-rise) can be used to completely fill the space between the rafters. I understand that the closed cell foam creates its own moisture barrier, but it would seem to be a problem for the shingles. The fact that both wall sheathing and attic sub-floor both extend to the roof decking creates an inaccessible space at the side of the house between the attic floor and the second floor ceiling, which cannot easily be filled with anything.
Does anyone know how to insulate in this case?

The search of Saakashvili's home was conducted two days after his Movement of New Forces party organized a rally in Kyiv calling for Poroshenko's impeachment and for legislation that would allow it to take place. The president, his former patron, rescinded his Ukrainian citizenship in July while he was out of the country.
"Ukraine needs to ensure the independence of the NABU in such a way that politicians can not influence the NABU's work".
Action by Ukraine's parliament and prosecutors against existing anti-corruption bodies such as the NABU investigative bureau provoked a wave of criticism this week from reformers and Kiev's foreign backers including the International Monetary Fund.
Saakashvili resigned as mayor of Odessa after declaring he could not remain in the position due to corruption that President Poroshenko was sponsoring and enabling.
Omnicom launches consultancy to help brands leverage Amazon
Previously, Amazon Australia had been paused as a bookseller, while internationally the marketplace grew into an e-commerce giant. Meanwhile, some items are actually cheaper to purchase on the Amazon US site and have shipped to Australia .
Poroshenko's faction is the largest in parliament and the president also nominates the general prosecutor.
Poroshenko's visit to Lithuania comes at a time of increased tensions in Ukraine after law-enforcement authorities tried to arrest former Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili on charges of financial crimes, but he was freed by his supporters.
"Mikheil Saakashvili won yesterday, and he won not when the Ukrainian people released him from the police minivan, but when he was arrested". "Their plan is to break the independence of anti-corruption bodies and replace them with fake ones". Saakashvili denies the allegations against him.
Yuriy Lutsenko, Ukraine's prosecutor general, said in a Facebook post that Mr. Saakashvili, the standard-bearer of a vociferous campaign to remove the president of Ukraine, Petro O. Poroshenko, had been seized late Friday by police officers in the Ukrainian capital, Kiev, and placed in a pretrial detention center.

Lort-Williams, J.
1. The plaintiffs' claim arises under several policies of insurance issued in September, October and November 1936 by the defendants, in respect of a fire which occurred on 1st December 1936, and which caused loss and damage to premises and stock contained in a jute godown. In their plaint they claimed also a refund of premia, but this sum was brought into Court by the defendants with their written statement and has since been paid over to the plaintiffs. The defendants' case is that none of the policies were subsisting or effecting at the time when the fire occurred owing to breaches by the plaintiffs of certain terms, conditions and warranties which were of the essence of the contracts. It is not suggested that the fire or the resultant loss or damage was in any way due to or affected by any of such breaches. The plaintiffs deny the breaches, and alter, natively plead waiver. There are arbitration clauses in the policies, but the parties agreed to waive them, and to have the question of liability first decided by the Court, with liberty to direct that the amount of the loss be ascertained hereafter by the Court or by arbitration in the event of the defendants' liability being established. The policies were issued subject to the Calcutta and Howrah Jute Press Tariff Warranties dated 15th June 1937, with certain exceptions which are immaterial. The material parts are as follows:
It is warranted during the currency of this policy (all and each of such warranties being of the essence of the contract and the insured forfeiting all rights and benefits under the policy by any breach or breaches thereof) that:
M. No jute hereby insured or on the insured premises shall at any time be contained in any building other than a 'godown' as hereinafter defined and no such godown shall at any time during the currency of this policy contain jute (irrespective of the ownership thereof) exceeding in the aggregate 35,000 maunds. The term 'godown' in this warranty shall mean the following and shall be incapable of having any other meaning:
(i) Any separate self-contained building (with or without partitions) situate at a distance of 14 feet or more from any other building, or any separate self-contained building situate less than 14 feet from another building provided that every wall thereof facing any such other building whether directly or obliquely shall be built of brick or stone without openings of any kind or if containing openings such openings being protected at all times by approved corrugated iron doors and/or shutters, unless such wall in any such other building is built of brick or stone without openings of any kind, or (ii) any compartment or part of any building which complies with Sub-clause (i) hereof provided that such compartment or part is separated from the whole of the rest of the building of which it forms part by perfect party walls built of brick or stone without openings of any kind or if containing openings such openings being protected at all times by double fire-proof doors and/or shutters, or
(iii) any two or more compartments or parts of any building which complies with Sub-clause (i) hereof, which are as a whole separated from all other parts of the said building by such walls as are described in Sub-clause (ii) hereof, or
(iv) any group of two or more separate self-contained buildings situate at a distance of less than 14 feet from each other provided that if any part of any wall or any building in such group shall be situate within 14 feet of any building not forming part of such group the whole of such wall shall be constructed in the manner described in Sub-clause (i) hereof.
2. The defendant also rely upon Clause 8 and 11 of the general conditions of the policies which so far as they are material read as follows:
8. Under any of the following circumstances the insurance ceases to attach as regards the property affected unless the insured, before the occurrence of any loss or damage, obtains the sanction of the company signified by endorsement upon the policy, by or on behalf of the company.
(a) If the trade or manufacture carried on be altered or if the nature of the occupation of or other circumstances affecting the building insured or containing the insured property be changed in such a way as to increase the risk of loss or damage by fire.
11. The insured shall also at all times at his own expense produce, procure and give to the company all such further particulars, plans, specifications, books, vouchers, invoices, duplicates or copies thereof, documents, proofs and information with respect to the claim and the origina.1 cause of the fire and the circumstances under which the loss or damage occurred, and any matter touching the liability or the amount of the liability of the company as may be reasonably required by or on behalf of the company together with a declaration on oath or in other legal form of the truth of the claim and of any matters connected therewith.
3. No claim under this policy shall be payable unless the terms of this condition have been complied with. The facts and arguments upon which the defendants rely are set out in their written statement as follows:
Paragraph 7. Prior to the outbreak of the fire mentioned in the plaint there was a breach of the said warranty M.A. hole was made in the party wall separating the part of the building described in the plaint as 'Godown No. 1' from what is described in the plaint as 'Godown No. 2', and the said hole was in existence at the time of the fire and was temporarily filled up by the Fire Brigade. The said hole was unprotected. At the time of the making of the said hole and while the same was in existence there was stored in the said 'Godown No. 1' approximately 32,206 maunds 34 seers of jute and in the said 'Godown No. 2' approximately 32,488 maunds 22 seers of jute.
Upon the making of the said hole there was a breach of the aforesaid warranty M in that the said Godowns Nos. 1 and 2 became one 'Godown' as defined in the said warranty and contained jute exceeding in the aggregate 35,000 maunds.
4. These facts and arguments had been stated previously in a letter from the defendants to the plaintiffs dated 13th February 1937 and the plaintiffs sought to meet them by pleading as follows in their plaint:
Paragraph 14. The words 'without openings of any kind' referred to in the warranties of each of the said policies are understood by all Insurers and Assured in Bengal to mean and are understood as applying to all opening therein except (a) such as are protected by fireproof doors and/or shutters or (b) such as are used for shafts, straps and stream gas or water pipes, such openings not being of more than sufficient size for the purposes and in no case exceeding 4 square feet in area.
Paragraph 15. The plaintiff submits that in the circumstances there was no breach of the torms of Sub-clause III-M of the policies. In the alternative the observance of terms of Sub-clause III-M of the policies was waived by the defendants.
Particulars of Waiver.
(a) The plaintiff for minimizing the risk of fire and for obtaining a substantial reduction of the rates of insurance had decided to install a sprinkler system with a six-inch pipe and had the plans of such sprinkler installation sanctioned by the Fire Assurance Association and entrusted the work to Messrs. Worthington Simpson & Co.
(b) Messrs. Worthington Simpson & Co. decided to install a sprinkler system with six-inch pipe passing through each godown. They had the plans sanctioned by the Fire Assurance Association. For the purpose of installation of the sprinkler, Messrs. Worthington Simpson & Go. used to have made temporary holes sufficient to receive the pipe in the walls of the different godowns when required by them. The defendant company accepted the insurance with full knowledge of the installation which was going on and with full knowledge of the operations necessary therefore.
(c) That during the progress of the work, representatives of the defendant company, namely the Assistant Manager, Mr. Bonaman, the Burra Babu, Mr. Mukherjee, the agent of the defendant company, Mr. Manik Chand and the Inspector of the Fire Assurance Association visited the godowns on several occasions and approved of the works which were being done. At none of such visits was any objection taken to the making of such temporary holes, but on the contrary the said persons approved of the work and asked that the same should be expedited.
5. The defendants dispute these facts and submissions, except that some of their employees were aware that the plaintiffs intended to install a sprinkler system. In particular they deny that they were aware that work in connexion with the installation of the sprinkler was carried on in any premises which at the time contained jute, or of the quantities of jute contained in any godown at any time. I accepted the suggestion of both parties that I should view the premises, and the following facts which were pointed out to me by both parties may be taken to be admitted. The portion with which the suit is concerned consists of a building divided by brick partition walls into four separate godowns in line or range. The building has a ground-floor and an upper floor and, therefore so, has each godown. Each godown has separate doors giving access from the outside. There are no openings in the partition walls. The main six-inch supply pipe of the sprinkler system runs the whole length of the building, just beneath the beams supporting the upper floor, and from it at right angles run smaller pipes to which the sprinklers are attached. It is obvious therefore that in order to pass the main pipe through the partition walls temporary holes must be made. The fire broke out at the end of the godown furthest away from the partition wall in which a hole is alleged by the defendant to have existed at the time. The following issues were settled:
(1) Was any opening within the meaning of Clause M of the warranties made in the separating wall between godown Nos. 1 and 2 prior to the fire, which existed at the time of the fire?
(2) What were the stocks in godowns Nos. 1 and 2 at the time of the fire?
(3) Was the condition No. 8 and/or warranty M broken at the time of the fire by reason of (a) any opening within the meaning of Clause M of the warranty in the separating wall and (b) the stocks?
(4) Was observance of the said condition and/or warranty waived or acquiesced in by the defendants?
(5) Was condition No. 11 broken by the plaintiffs?
6. The learned standing counsel, Mr. S.M. Bose, on behalf of the defendants, accepted the onus of proof regarding Issues 1, 2, 3 and 5 and proceeded to call witnesses. The only witness upon the question of the stocks was Mr. Thorn. His evidence on this point was very unreliable and unsatisfactory. His calculations were largely a matter of guess work. He relied mainly upon a report made by him soon after the fire but was unable to produce his notes, which he said that he had made at the time, but which he had lost. Upon a question so serious to the interests of the plaintiffs the evidence is wholly inadequate, and I cannot accept his calculations as accurate. I have no hesitation in deciding Issues 2 and 3(b) in favour of the plaintiffs. On the issues touching the existence of a hole or opening in the partition wall, this witness said that he noticed something like smoke on the ceiling of godown No. 2 in the neighbourhood of a hole which had been filled up in the partition wall. He admitted that there had been a fire in that godown in the previous October 1936, but he said that it looked as if this godown had since then been repaired and the ceiling whitewashed. When I viewed the premises these facts were pointed out to me, but it appeared to me that the ceiling had not been whitewashed for a very long time. His evidence was given obviously upon the assumption that the hole which penetrated the partition wall had existed at the time of the fire, and was directed to prove that some smoke had come through the opening on 1st December 1936, and had blackened the ceiling.
7. But to the obvious surprise of Mr. Bose both the witnesses called by him to prove these essential facts were unable to do so. Both were officers of the Fire Brigade. Mr. Meyers, the Second Officer, said that while he was in godown No. 2 his attention was called by Station Officer Eraser to a hole in the partition wall under the beam on the ground floor; it was about six to nine inches in size and he gave orders for it to be filled up for safety in case of any sparks flying into the godown. He did not see any sparks or smoke coming through the hole. Mr. Fraser, the Station Officer, said that while he was in godown No. 2 he saw a small hole on the wall about the size of a brick and after informing Second Officer Meyers he went somewhere else. What he saw appeared to be a hole about the size of a brick, but he could not say whether the hole went through the partition wall, and he did not see any smoke or sparks coming ' through the hole. This evidence having been given, Mr. Bose said that he did not wish to call any further witness and closed his case upon this issue. The only other evidence on the point was contained in a letter from the plaintiffs to the defendants-dated 8th February 1937, in which they wrote as follows:
We are in a position to state that the hole in the party wall separating godowns 1 and 2 made temporarily for the installation of the sprinkler service was filled up by one or more of our employees after the outbreak of the fire, but we are not able to-give you the name or names of such employees. In reply to our enquiry from Messrs. Worthington Simpson Limited, for the information required by para, 4 of your letter of the 23rd instant they have written to us as follows:
We have been in communication with our chargehand erector who was responsible for the sprinkler erection on 1st December 1936, the date of the recent fire at your place. As our chargehand is at present in Cawnpore, we quote to you his reply to the various questions we asked. 'We asked for a hole to be cut by the press staff on the morning of the day of the fire, so that we could put our six. inch main pipe through the dividing wall of godowns Nos. 1 and 2.
Accordingly this work was being carried out and our erection staff and myself went to lunch at about 11 A.M. After about half an hour One of the mistris came to my house and informed of the fire. I immediately cycled to the press and went to the hole and found it bricked in pucca. It is impossible for me to tell the name of the person who made the hole or who it was who made it pucca. After about a fortnight the hole had to be re-made and the main was put through the wall and the wall again made pucca.
With regard to your expression of surprise regarding our letter to Sinclair Murray of 9th January, the facts as above stated were not then known to the writer of that letter; this fact is, we think, evident from the terms of that letter.
8. This being the whole of the evidence, I pointed out to Mr. Bose that there' appeared to be no case for the plaintiffs to answer. There was nothing in the evidence to show that the work ordered by the chargehand erector had been completed or that the hole had penetrated the wall at the time when the fire broke out, which must have been between 11 o'clock when the chargehand erector went to lunch and 11-25 when the fire call was made. Mr. Banerjee on behalf of the plaintiff submitted that he had no case to answer, and invited me to decide that point before calling upon him to tender evidence. Mr. Bose objected that no such procedure was admissible under the Code of Civil Procedure. Thereupon Mr. Banerjee said that he would call no evidence upon that issue. In order to make doubly sure, I ordered Mr. Meyers to be recalled, and in reply to my question he said that he could not see whether the hole went right through the wall or not. Mr. Bose then asked for leave to recall Mr. Thorn and to call a new witness Mr. Jackson on this point. I refused to grant leave on the ground that Mr. Thom had been present in Court and had heard the discussion, that Mr. Bose had closed his case, and that Mr. Banerjee had already made a submission that he had no case to answer on this issue. Both counsel then addressed the Court. I came to the conclusion that the defendants had failed upon this issue, and so decided. This was sufficient to dispose of the whole case in favour of the plaintiffs, but in view of the possibility of further proceedings, I decided to hear evidence and arguments upon the remaining issues, namely whether there was waiver or acquiescence on the part of the defendants, and whether, assuming that the hole described had in fact penetrated the wall, this was an 'opening' within the meaning of the term contained in the warranty.
9. Upon the issue of waiver, the onus only lay upon the plaintiffs and they called one witness, a partner in the plaintiff firm. He said that orders were given in July 1936 for the installation of the sprinkler system. The defendants' agent, Manik Chand, and their chhota saheb, Mukherjee, came to the plaintiffs' premises about the second week in September 1936, and inspected them prior to effecting any insurance. The witness told them that he had given orders for a sprinkler system to be installed and they said that he had done the right thing and asked for his insurance business. They said that he should install the system as early as possible, because in such cases they allowed a 22 1/2 per cent, rebate. Thereupon insurance was effected for two lacs. About the fourth week in September, Manik Chand, Mukherji and Bonaman of the defendant company came again to the premises. They pressed the witness to get the sprinkler system installed as soon as possible. On 5th October 1936, a fire broke out in godown No. 2. Messrs. Bonaman, Mukherji, Maclure and Mitra, representing the defendant company, came to inspect, and the defendants' claim was settled. Then Mr. Bonaman asked for further insurance business and the plaintiffs took out further policies.
10. The installation of the sprinkler system started and the materials were assembled on the premises in the beginning of November 1936, and Messrs. Bonaman, Mukherji and Manik Chand came and saw them there. They pressed the witness to expedite the installation. They saw that jute was stored in godowns 1, 2 and 3. The work progressed and by 21st November all the pipes had been fitted in godown 3, and more than half the work had been completed in godown 2. On that date, Messrs. Bonaman, Mukherji and Mr. Fritz, the burra saheb of the defendant company, came to the premises and inspected the installation work. They asked the witness to hurry it up saying that if he had installed the system earlier the previous fire would not have caused any loss. They went into the godown and saw the jute which was stored in all of them. On the same day, further insurance was effected with the defendants who asked witness to give them all his business. Mr. Bose called no witness to contradict this evidence, though Messrs. Fritz, Bonaman and Mukherji were present in Court. Having heard and seen the witness, I have no reason to suppose that he was speaking other than the truth. His evidence was uncontradicted and I accept it. As was said by Viscount Cave in P. Samuel & Co. v. Dumas (1924) A.C. 431 at page 442:
A right may be waived either by express words or by conduct inconsistent with the continuance of the right; and even where there is no actual waiver, the person having the right may so conduct himself that it becomes inequitable for him to enforce it.
11. Assuming that the hole penetrating the wall existed at the time of the fire, and assuming that such a hole is an 'opening' within the meaning of the terms of the warranty, I find without hesitation that the defendants not only by implication waived the term and acquiesced in the work being carried out, but requested that it should be carried out as quickly as possible. In any case they so acted that it became inequitable for them to rely upon their right. In my opinion however such a hole, assuming its existence at the material time, was not an 'opening' within the meaning of the terms of the warranty. These terms are meant to refer only to 'openings' permanent in character and of substantial size. They contemplate 'openings' which can be protected with corrugated iron doors or fireproof doors or shutters : see Thompson v. Equity Fire Insurance Co. (1910) A.C. 592 at p. 596, per Lord Macnaghten. The fact that a six to pine inch hole is made temporarily through the partition wall of a godown in order to pass through it a six inch pipe, does not make the godown any the less a compartment or part of a building and therefore a 'godown' within the term of warranty M. Nor does it entitle the defendants to count godowns 1 and 2 as one godown, and thus enable them to add together the weights of the contents of the two godowns. If the defendants intended to stipulate that any opening however small and however temporary in character would constitute a breach of the warranty they could have so expressed it : see Dobson v. Sotheby (1827) Moo & M. 90 at page 1092, per Lord Tenterden C.J.
12. No argument was advanced by either party with regard to condition 8 or 11. As to condition 8, Sub-clause (a) was the only one relied upon, and in my opinion it refers only to changes which are permanent : see Shaw v. Robberds (1937) 6 Ad. & E. 5 at p. 32, per Lord Denman C.J. Moreover the words 'or other circumstances affecting the building' must be read according to the rule ejusdem generis, and refer to changes in the nature of the occupation which affect the building, and therefore have no application to the facts of this case. As to condition 11, the part which I have already quoted was the only part relied upon, and no evidence was given to prove that there was any breach of it on the part of the plaintiffs. As was said by Lee C.J. in Pelly v. Royal Exchange Assurance Co. (1757) 1 Burr 341 at p. 347:
It is certain that in construction of policies, the strictum jus or apex juris is not to he laid hold on, but they are to be construed largely, for the benefit of trade and for the insured.
13. I have applied those principles in the present case with the result that there must be judgment for the plaintiff with costs.

The price of gas is falling, at least for some of our neighbors north of Fresno, to under $2 a gallon.
In Fresno, the cheapest gas reported Thursday on GasBuddy.com was $2.14 a gallon at the ARCO gas station on Kings Canyon Road and Winery Avenue in southeast Fresno.
The average price for a gallon of unleaded gas in Fresno was $2.47, a penny more than the day before and a little more than the state average of $2.43, according to AAA of Northern California. The national average hovers around the $2 mark.
When will the exciting low price hit Fresno?
Don't get your hopes up, said Allison Mac, an oil analyst at GasBuddy, which reports fuel prices from filling stations across the country.
"It's actually inching back up a little," Mac said. "It's not looking like we'll see prices below $2 in Fresno."
Cities north of Fresno may see cheaper gas prices because they are closer to the refineries or there is less demand, Mac said. Fresno is between Los Angeles and San Francisco where travel is heavy and prices can be a bit higher, she said.
Or what people might be seeing in Northern California cities is simply competition between gas stations, said Cynthia Harris, AAA spokeswoman.
Prices have stabilized, Harris said, but anything from a weather disaster to supply can cause the cost to increase.
Spring is coming, which means a switch, probably in March, from the winter gas blend to the more expensive summer blend. Then the busy travel season will hit, Harris said, at which time gas typically goes up.

The Wisconsonite from Lakefront Brewery.
Milwaukee, often dwarfed by southern neighbor and big brother, Chicago, is the little town that could. Steeped in a beer culture thatâs as old as the city itself, Milwaukee has a little bit of everything: great food, delicious coffee, world-class culture spots, and sports teams.
But really, all of the beer.
If youâve only got a few days in Milwaukee (Be smart and go when itâs warm. Itâs like a Polar Vortex from October to mid-April), you should dutifully follow this guide for maximum beer consumption and Midwestern goodness.

Cleveland Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert talks about the waiting game for LeBron James
Author: Terry Pluto
Publication: The Plain Dealer
"CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Dan Gilbert felt it -- "the burden," as he now calls it.
On his jet headed to Florida on July 6 to talk to LeBron James, Gilbert knew he had to make it right.
"There was this 'thing' out there about us," said the Cavs owner. "When you have a problem with someone, it usually doesn't end up in public like this."
The "thing" was the ugliness over the way James left the Cavs in 2010, followed by the volatile letter from Gilbert."

The Cavaliers' LeBron James, the Browns' Johnny Manziel and the power of perceptions
Author: Bill Livingston
Publication: The Plain Dealer
"CLEVELAND, Ohio –- Thinking outside the box is a coveted ability in sports today. It certainly applies to the rise of the Cavaliers' LeBron James in civic esteem and the potential of the Browns' Johnny Manziel either to rise or fall.
In tactical terms, there is a "box" in both basketball and fooball, both designed to constrict the space in which a great player can do great things.
The box in football is the area five yards behind the line of scrimmage, which can be packed with seven or eight players in certain situations. It teems with peril for a quarterback like Manziel. The defensive ends form the sides of what amounts to a pass-rushing box, each tasked with not letting a mobile quarterback like Johnny Football slip outside the box. LSU and Missuori executed the gameplan brilliantly last season in victories over Texas A&M and Manziel.
More often, Manziel burst his boundaries, made thrilling plays with his feet or his arm, and broke the box into kindling."

Seven observations on the Cleveland Cavaliers and the NBA from Las Vegas Summer League
Author: Chris Fedor
Publication: Cleveland.com
"LAS VEGAS -- The Cleveland Cavaliers have wrapped up the preliminary round of summer league. Sitting at 3-0, they now wait to see where they will be seeded for the tournament, which is set to begin on Wednesday. The Cavs' could start tourney play on Thursday, depending on their seed.
Cleveland has received a lot of attention this week. Fans have packed Cox Pavilion, hoping to get a glimpse of former UNLV star Anthony Bennett as well as June's No. 1 pick, Andrew Wiggins. There has also been plenty of buzz about the direction of the team now that LeBron James has returned.
If the Cavs win the summer league title, they will have played seven games. Here are seven observations as the team eyes the crown, which will be awarded next Monday.
1. The highs and lows of Wiggins: I think it will be important for fans to remember that he's only 19. He could be entering his first year in college if not for a reclassification ruling."

There are a variety of ways to raise significant dollars and it is all about the numbers. What is the most effective way for you, the donor and the organization? Here are some strategies by the numbers:
• One + One solicitation – This is a very effective strategy. This allows the donor to share emotional stories about his/her family and if necessary, private financial information. There is a certain comfort for the fundraiser as well to know that you are in the privacy of the donor's thoughts. Because there are only two of you, there is a quiet freedom to ask more personal questions that you might not ask if a third person was in the conversation. This is an effective method for the solicitation of any size gift.
• Two + One solicitation – When the triad is perfect, this is a very powerful solicitation. This can work in a couple of variations. First, two professionals can solicit one donor. This elevates the solicitation by signaling to the donor that he/she is very important to the organization. Next, one professional and one lay leader (volunteer) solicit one donor. This also elevates the solicitation by bringing a peer with the professional to discuss the organization with the donor. When a donor hears from a peer their commitment and trust of an organization, it allows the creation of a new partnership for the professional and the donor.
• Two + Two solicitation – Similar to the above. In this scenario, either two professionals or one professional and a lay leader solicit a couple. What is most illuminating in this scenario is that the professionals learn a lot about people when there are together with their spouse or partner. This could be difficult if the couple is not philanthropically in alignment, their values or interests vary or even their anxiety levels about money are very different. The professionals need to listen carefully to cues from the couple.
• Ten – Twenty Donors in a group solicitation – This is used most effectively to raise significant dollars. This must be choreographed with the sole purpose to allow for the donors to share their ideas and bring them to a point where the solicitation is successful. The success of this group solicitation is peer encouragement. When donors are together with like-minded peers, the impact is genuine and powerful.
• Large groups – Similar to the small group solicitation, this must be designed to move the donors emotionally to give a significant gift. The speakers must be articulate and emotional. Their speech needs to bring the donors to understand their role in helping the organization. In this scenario, the speakers should be beneficiaries of the organization which allows the group to see the impact of the organization's work and therefore the justification of the donor's gift.
With all of these, the solicitors must be confident and proud of their work. Knowing their donors and which of the scenarios will work best is critical to the solicitation. In my experience, most donors genuinely want to be philanthropic, trust their organizational partner and see the impact of their work. It is exciting when you can offer wonderful opportunities for donors that satisfy their philanthropic goals. And even better when they are grateful to you for bringing them the opportunity.

The Tofino Chronicles: Firebrat
July 2012 , our annual trip to Tofino. This year, little e really embraced the whole camping experience. Although not the hiking experience, but that's another post. What he really loved about camping this year was the campfire. Oh, how he loved that fire! And once that fire was lit, oh how he loved to poke it and prod it. (Gosh, I have no idea where he gets that from! <diverts eyes>) He would have used up all the wood on the first fire if we let him. Of course we gave him limits. How often did we then hear "Has it been ten minutes yet? I think it's been ten minutes." It was barely two!

Didn't read the story but have gotten the gist of what happened. I don't really know how sports games work though.
But I'm surprised it's not possible for the winning team to just call an end to the game when it's obvious they're better and they're blowing the other team out of the water. Halftime would have been the appropriate time for that to happen. Second half shouldn't have even happened.
Is it always the losing team that has to call the game off and forfeit it?

I'm confused. I think people are supposed to do their best to win. I think it's kind of ridiculous to imply that someone "should" cut their opponent some slack in a competition. If they didn't cheat, they didn't do anything wrong.
Good questions, Jennifer.. Only I believe you ought to know exactly what's going to happen going in. In this sense.. if they shouldn't have played, but wanted to anyways, and got creamed.. Why should it be on the other team?
The problems stated earlier about being insulting either way would be present.. I dont' think it was a christian or unchristian thing.. merely a game that probably shouldn't have happened, but did. Either side should feel bad, although the loser side would feel a bit creamed..Kantgirl: Just say "I'm feminine and I'll punch anyone who says otherwise!"

No way I'm handing over a loss because the other team needs to get their skills up. Either you step on the court and play, and win, or you lose by whatever means that is. If you can't handle it take yourself off the game or get your skills up!�If one does not understand a person, one tends to regard him as a fool. -Carl Gustav Jung *I-74* *N-53* *T-95* *J-89*
I like insight about my position. I think losing that badly would be very insightful. To me it would be very insulting to have someone much better than me nurf their own performance, as to let me have an effectively false score.
I don't think most of the morals theoretically being applied here really make sense when it comes to sports, or games in general. I mean, the points in a game don't actually have any value. Where does compassion enter into this? If, say, the only way people made money was based on how much they scored in sports, then I'd understand the need for compassion. But as it is, points are just a mechanism of the game, and the game is just for entertainment.
And you know, the point is to win. Because of this, the sense of fun often comes from the competition, and the sense of satisfaction is only possible if you earned your success. If I know someone isn't trying their best against me, I lose all interest in playing. There'd be nothing generous about someone letting me score points then, because the only purpose of the game is entertainment, and now it wouldn't be entertaining at all. The only value the points have, is essentially removed if I know their simply being given to me.
I don't know, perhaps other people have a completely different idea of what games are for that I'm not aware of. This situation to me looks like a misunderstanding of what competetive games are all about.Go to sleep, iguana.

Certainly they must have been trying to get some message across and apparently I didn't pay much attention. My focus in team sports has always been to be part of the cooperative effort to beat, preferably anihilate, the other team. Heh.
The Christian viewpoint from my perspective would be the body as "Temple of the Lord." To be well-maintained and used to its fullest potential as a precious gift.
When playing a game, that would mean practicing, building physical strength and skill and then exhibiting the same to prevail over the other team. (Gee. I wonder if that would mean one team were better Christians than the other! Or simply given finer "gifts" by their Maker. ) That doesn't work very well.
I think charity would be best practiced on a one-to-one basis. It seems personally dishonest in most one-to-one competition to not do one's best. That's excepting the situation Jennifer described above where she is teaching her child and instilling some values.
Then there is that other, more stealthy practice, of sand-bagging to draw an opponent in and make the kill particularly satisfying.
A large group of students hardly seems the place where teaching through this example, or demonstrating the Christian value of charity would be applicable.
Need to hear more. . ."No ray of sunshine is ever lost, but the green which it awakes into existence needs time to sprout, and it is not always granted to the sower to see the harvest. All work that is worth anything is done in faith." - Albert Schweitzer
I'm a Christian, but I just fail to see where Christianity means throwing a game to spare the other side the embarrassment. Sports are by nature competitive. You come to play your best and your hardest, and the outcome is what it is. If you were worried about the other side's feelings and self-esteem the whole time, no one would ever win a game. You'd have a bunch of feel-good ties that don't mean anything. Much like in kids' soccer leagues where everyone gets a trophy for trying. I'm not a sports person at all, but I don't see the point in playing team sports at all if you aren't going to compete.
I suppose you could actually argue that going easy on the other team is kind of dishonest. (Edit: just saw Anja made that point!)
I've been seeing this story on the news all day, and each time, my response has been, "Really? Wow."Something Witty
It's not about throwing the game, it's about having the kids score less, practice harder moves, put in the kids who don't get to play as much because they aren't as good.
I don't know how high school works but in (elementary school) rec leagues it's bad form to win like that. When my kids soccer teams used to kick butt (before they switched to a harder league the next year) they would practice certain plays and stuff. He would never let them run up an extreme score if it was obvious they were so much better than the other team.
I imagine they could have done something other than go 100-0. Especially if they are apologizing. It's possible they just left their best players in and tried to get the highest score possible.

File Upload with Servlet
Aug 27, 2007 1:41 AM
Hi at all.
I need to upload file from a client flex application to the application server.
If I don't use Flex this is a simple task made by a Servlet that manage a form submit.
In Flex I found example that show how to do the same thing but with the use of a ColdFusion script.
I can't use a solution like that beacuse my backend system is made with J2EE and I've already developed a lot of servlets that expose this functions.
Anyone know how to use FileReference and URLRequest to invoce a Servlet for uploading files ?
Thank at all

Today is one of those days where I don't like the way I look. I feel fat and gross and completely unattractive. It's really a terrible way for anyone to feel about themselves, and thankfully, I know that it will pass as soon as it comes. But I can only imagine how low some people's self-esteems must be if they think they are unattractive on a daily basis. That might sound incredibly egotistical, but this blog isn't called The Paranoid Delusions of a Narcissist for no reason.
Anyway, today I dropped by school, even though it's break week, for a digital painting workshop hosted by none other than HNI. Aaah, a post involving HNI – hasn't happened in a while. Anyway, it was quite fun and informative. We painted this pepper and then did a picture of this lady with flying hair but I got fed up with her and worked on painting a fashion sketch.
I haven't done much else today. I came home and exercised because I decided that:
1. I have this entire week to do as much exercise as I can, so I should utilize the shit out of it.
2. It was time for a shower.
And then I watched this movie called Water Lilies on Netflix. It's a french movie about this really awkward as fuck girl who kinda falls in love with the 'popular' girl in synchronized swimming and becomes her lapdog of sorts. It was a strange, yet pretty good movie. Lots of awkward scenes. The music reminded me of the 80s.

asp.net editor user control in .net needed
Budget $500-5000 USD
Enclosed is the details for the requirements for the project. This can be done in any language as long as the final results is the .net assembly user control. Must be compatible with Visual [url removed, login to view] since I will be using it in there. Must be able to load documents quickly (even if there are over 1000 lines of code for a document). Also enclosed is the previous version of the control that was a COM object. That can be used as a reference so you will know what I am asking for since the final results need to be the same but instead of using it for regular asp pages with com objects, this will be used for asp.net pages with the .net assemblies. I will not accept any third party programs or components for this so please do not suggest this.
## Deliverables
The compiled dll and the source code for the dll.

TO SEE WHAT WE CAN SEE November 10, 2014
Mary John's Haiku SURRENDER
Breathing in Breath out
Surrender in Lovingness
To Christ Consciousness
[sacred geometry symbol for Christ Consciousness: Vesica Piscis
I call this watercolor paintingThe Eye of God]
from Cat's catalyst to reflect on our first 10 days of art journaling:
Art Journaling brings color and shapes/forms into my life.
It putd the spotlight/focus on things I wouldn't usually give my attention to.
It lets me look at things from different perspectives.
It's a place I like to muck about in.
It's a space where I can take risks, experiment and try new things and make mistakes
and keep trying new things.
In my art journal I can do something over and over again
or just do something once and walk away from doing it
ever again
or just for a while.
I have had some pages I like more better than others.
All of the Soul Talk and ponderings help me open windows and doors
and expand my horizons
and deepen my understandings.

Flat beer sales bubbling up
For the past several years, sales reports were gloomy in the beer industry worldwide. In general, mass market sales were off. Wine sales, on the other hand, kept improving.
So, with the light of common sense finally shining with blinding brilliance, more beermakers began emulating winemakers' marketing tactics. Just in time, says Nick Lake, beer analyst at the ACNielsen marketing information company and VP of new business development.
The majors had "blended; became the same," he said. "If they didn't have the brand in some ads -- a Budweiser ad, a Miller Lite ad, a Coors ad -- if they didn't have the can in it, it could be any one of the three," said Lake, the company's vice president of new business development.
From fruity malt drinks to organic brews and new, splashier packaging, the marketing prohgrams for beer have grown to resemble wines more and more. And, sales are on an uptick.
A few of the innovations:
• Heineken's keg can for the refrigerator, giving consumers draft beer at home.
• Coors' cooler box with 18-ounce plastic bottles that is ready to be filled with ice and taken on the road.
• Budweiser's sturdy aluminum bottles that are like a cross between a can and a glass bottle. (A number of other companies offer the same container.)
• As I've noted in earlier postings, some of the majors such as Anheuser-Busch have signed deals with foreign brewers to act as their U.S. distribution agents.
• New products from the majors include Anheuser-Busch's Stone Mill Pale Ale and Wild Hop Lager, both certified organic. Peels malt beverage is made with all-natural fruit. A-B's Tilt and B-to-the-E have sweet flavors, caffeine, ginseng and guarana, a Brazilian stimulant.

Death, to an American
They insist!
Upon their human rights!
As long as they serve their human interests,
Not saving human lives!
They teach us morals ...
Of sorts,
And are anti-heroes!
Any wise parent is quick to oppose!
And with evil: them appose!
On the Television set...
In magazines, and multi-colour printing spread!
Enemies to all!
Especially in their death!
"Death to America",
Such an easy phrase,
Wolf's bane! ...that kills all but not them!
Bane to the world!
911 call the world Police!
And as another American dies,
All mourn!
Ignoring the thousands of the rest of us!
For the Celebrities!
The wrongly celebrated fews!
As the rest full cassettes, caskets and pews!
And write fan letters,
A million, billion tweets!
And Facebook treats!
For members of this Army,
World Police!
As bit by bit our cultures die!
And all that was deep in the world,
Is replaced by false truths!
Filmstrip thin!
As all, worship!
These! Our world police!
And indeed: "Death to America";
Is the words of worship, of praise!
An acknowledgement to slavery!
To jealousy,
Green as Al Qaeda steam!
No! World Police,
Our service is to God,
Not their God,
The real one!
Dearest loves!
Ignore America, please!
Do not mimic, or worship them,
Or their mass destruction weapons, please!
We must be better!
You must now, must now,
What we see, see!
And ignore the juggernaut,
The death bringer,
In so many orphaned lives!
This is what not, ignoring,
America achieves!

About me
I have always been fascinated with the law. By chance, it happens to be my field. I am an admitted attorney of the High Court of South Africa, as of 28 January 2016.
It was my fellow students' suggestions, in the final years of school, that I might be suited to a career in law, along with long discussions with a friend of mine - which imbued me with a keen interest in the history, language, and laws of the Roman Empire - that made me realise that law was the choice of career that best suited the ideas and plans I had for the future. I enrolled in an LLB degree at Wits University and subsequently graduated Bachelor of Laws a few years later.
I completed, with distinction, the Law Society's Legal Education and Development (L.E.A.D) School for Legal Practice program. I am pleased to have had the privilege of having served at two very different firms during my articles, giving me a much broader experience of work in the profession.
I believe success requires not just hard work, but intelligence, perseverance, humility, integrity, ingenuity, diligence, a strong work ethic, and the courage to request the assistance of those better-versed in a matter, or field.
I am passionate about the place of my birth, South Africa and am proud to be a patriot and citizen of this diverse and beautiful nation. I consider myself a global citizen and keep connections in a number of different nations across the world. Communicating with people from other cultures, I believe, has aided me to have a more open-minded approach in so far as how I see and interact with the world.
The cultures and legal systems, morals, and courtesy systems, languages, intricacies and religions of South Africa and of the world, are subjects I love to research. I extensively enjoy reading and writing, and in keeping abreast with important events occurring in other countries, I find my knowledge of other languages, especially French, to be quite useful.
Law & Career
Law firms I have worked at include: DL Wilson Attorneys in Randburg North, Desmond Barry Attorneys in Morningside, Sandton, Botha & Sutherland Attorneys in Aukland Park, Johannesburg. I currently work as a Consulting Attorney for Serina Govender Inc. Attorneys-at-Law. My professional website will tell you more about me, where you might want to subscribe to my professional blog . I also edit and write for the SACNS, write breaking news for a multinational service called InfosNews Breaking News, and act as a correspondent for the popular french language Les News service.
Novels I have written include
A Lesser Instinct | My first foray into the world of long form fiction.
Read it without payment - on Scribd.
(Or read it at: ITunes | Scribd Store | Barnes and Noble | Google Books | Kobo | Inktera )
I write poetry on the Tempest and the Hurricane, and on The Butterfly and the Night Breeze.
Podcasting and YouTube
I have a Podcast available on AudioBoom, and may be followed on my YouTube account.
Social Media
Please follow me on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Google + and Instagram.
