ANZAC Day has a special meaning to me as my Grandfather was in the New Zealand Navy and is currently the Vice Chairman of the Currumbin RSL on the Gold Coast.
The Currumbin RSL ANZAC Day Service is the service that is televised live on Sunrise on Chanel 7, and he plays an important role in both organising and running the event.
They shall grow not old,
as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them,
nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun
and in the morning
Well will remember them.

lets pay these players already. in many cases, they have little other choice but to ensure their future financial stability. If he has to sit out the entire year then im not sure it'll hurt him anyways, he'll just go to the draft and be a top 3 pick anyways. We saw this with Enes Kanter and he wasn't even as hyped as Shabazz was (albeit in a weak draft)
the one year rule only hurts the game more. its got to go as well i agree

Great Expectations
Pip and Magwitch discuss freedom. Why does Magwitch say Pip cannot appreciate freedom the way he does? What does this tell us about his character?
Magwitch has been on the run for much of his life. He has been unable to make roots, friends or have a proper family. Ironically, Pip had all of these before he became a "gentleman". Magwitch is actually an introspective and sensitive character. He sees his life in context and truly wants to help Pip because he can no longer help himself.

Discussion in 'CJ Affiliate' started by MailBoxSeller, Feb 7, 2010.
Can I promote them without a website ,just send some targeted customers email?
Maybe using a url shortner like bit.ly
Another to know is if the Affiliate accepts direct linking.
I hear CJ was really good about catching BlackHat traffic.
I have a lot of approved affiliates but I'm almost afraid of touching them because I don't have any way to explain my traffic. The site I hooked my CJ too is kind of dull and crappish. Anybody have luck pushing and getting paid out from them?
Don't, I got 3 leads for $100 that never showed up in my account. Better to register with the company themselves.
All you have to do is read their conditions do's and don'ts.
I use nothing but email marketing for CJ. But I make sure the company accepts email marketing.
well,I got something like this
But I heard that this link was bind with my website,so can I use this link directly to promote the CJ products?

Sorry I have been so MIA since my posting about our sweet little girl! I have been in kind of a blogging slump, not to mention extremely busy with life, house renovations, and work!
We have called an exterminator, they came and sprayed, Adam (Hubs) got under the house and sprinkled this stuff that supposed to kill them off, we have used spray in the house ourselves, and yet these things won't stop invading my space! It could be worse I realize, could be roaches or spiders or ants, but seriously, they won't leave us alone! Any of you ladies had the same problem? HELP is MUCH needed! And I am deathly afraid that this guy is living somewhere under our house making these one inch babies that are crawling through our house and having parties... (I haven't seen him yet, but I am beginning to wonder!)
House renovations... well we have painted lots of things... planted some things... and the front of our house is ALMOST where we want it. A little landscaping left and we will be all ready for our big reveal of before and after of our home! We are slowly making this house our home! The master bathroom on the other hand is a different story. We have the wallpaper down but serious sheet rock was torn down so there are many repairs to be done, and Adam has to do those because well, I have no idea about walls and crap :)
It's going to be a while before our house is truly where I want it. But we are getting there slowly. I mean I keep reminding myself that I am blessed to even be able to own a home and that I am not a millionaire or EVEN KINDA CLOSE! So we have to do things on a schedule as we have the budget to do them! And with a baby on the way, all the budget can't go for house renovations... we have a babies room to decorate.
Speaking of... I can not decide what I want to do for decor in her room! I think I make a decision then I change my mind! I am driving myself crazy! Here are a few of my inspirations. I can't decide which way to go! Ahhhh, but it's fun looking!
I promise not to go too long without posting but if I am slacking I'm sorry! :) I am trying to keep up with all you lovelies! HUGS!

Banks, payment processors put future participation in doubt
Daily fantasy sports wagering sites DraftKings and FanDuel are saying they're going to fight the order from New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman to stop activities in the Empire state, but the more pertinent question is whether their payment processors are also up for a battle.
The two private companies' main banks, and the banks and payment processors who hold deposits and pay out winnings via PayPal and credit cards must now decide whether to continue their relationship with DraftKings and FanDuel now that Schneiderman has accused them of leading "a massive, multi-billion-dollar scheme intended to evade the law and fleece sports fans across the country."
At least one bank has put future participation in doubt.
A Citigroup
A Wells Fargo
Others also said they were reviewing the order.
A PayPal
A spokesman for MasterCard
A spokeswoman from Visa
A spokeswoman for Discover
Michael Zeldin, the former chief of the money laundering section at the Department of Justice and an attorney at Buckley Sandler, says his advice to a bank client, now that he's defending them rather than prosecuting them, would be to step aside given the high risk. "Why would you choose to get in the middle of this legal battle? Generally speaking the fines these days will outstrip any benefits of staying on board."
"These companies will put their banks and payment processors in a tough spot," added Doug Gansler, the former attorney general of Maryland and also an attorney with Buckley Sandler, "if they choose to defy the attorney general and continue to operate in New York while fighting this order."
The risk is especially high for those banks and processors that call New York home because their continued service to these sites may be scrutinized by a New York regulator, no matter where the transactions take place.
Both DraftKings and FanDuel are already barred from operating by laws that prohibit fantasy sports for money in Arizona, Iowa, Louisiana, Montana and Washington. Nevada recently said it will require the sites to be licensed. The player registration page for DraftKings does not provide any of those locations in its pull-down choices for state of residence. As of the end of day on Wednesday, New York was still a state of residence that could be chosen by a new player. FanDuel does not have a similar registration page, only a place to enter credit-card information for deposits. A potential player can enter a credit card for payment in all states including the ones where the site is illegal and in New York.

"Mandatory Fun," Yankovic's 14th studio disc, topped the Billboard 200 chart Wednesday with sales of 104,000 copies in the week that ended July 20, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
"If you'd told me 30 years ago this would happen, I never would've believed it," the singer wrote early Wednesday on Twitter. "If you'd told me 2 WEEKS ago, I never would've believed it."

(Reuters) - Lender CYBG Plc (CYBGC.L) posted higher mortgage lending in the first quarter, but said growth in the market would ease over the remainder of the financial year 2018.
The company, which made its London debut after it was spun off by National Australia Bank (NAB.AX), said it continued to expect mid-single digit growth in balances for the year.
CYBG said new lending to small and medium-sized businesses (SME) rose 1.4 percent to 567 million pounds ($795 million) in the three months ended Dec. 31.
CYBG is one of Britain's challenger banks that emerged after the financial crisis to fill a gap in small business lending and capitalise on problems at the big banks.
Mortgages increased 7.4 percent to 23.9 billion pounds from a year earlier.
CYBG said its expected to see mortgage price stability through the remainder of the financial year 2018. In November, it had said it would face price pressure in the business.
Both home-buyers and shoppers are under pressure from a squeeze on real take-home pay as consumer price inflation rises while wage growth slows.
"Despite the ongoing uncertainty in relation to the terms of the UK's withdrawal from the European Union and its potential impact on the outlook for the UK economy, we remain confident in our ability to deliver the group's FY18 and medium-term guidance," CYBG said.
CYBG, which runs the Clydesdale and Yorkshire banks, reported quarterly net interest margin of 216 basis points, down from 221 basis points in the fourth quarter.
The lender said its CET1 ratio was 12.4 percent at Dec. 31, "comfortably" within its operating range.
Customer deposit balances rose 14.8 percent to 28.7 billion pounds.

Who is Creative Communication?
Creative Communication is a company who is devoted to the promotion of writing, teaching and appreciation of student writing. The intent of our student writing contests is to motivate creative writers. The top entries are published in an anthology that will record the creative insights of today's student writers. There is no requirement for a student to purchase an anthology, however, if a student wishes to purchase one, it is made available at an affordable price. Top ten winners of the contest receive a free copy of the anthology. In addition, any teacher with five or more students who give permission for publication will receive a free anthology that features their student writers.
Why do we sponsor a student writing contest?
Why do you request a student's home address?
Can home school students enter?
When can I expect to receive the book that I ordered?
If I entered the Fall contest, can I enter the Spring one also?
My school is not entering the contest, can I enter alone?
What does it mean if I don't find my name on the winner's list?
Is this a contest where everyone is accepted to be published?
Why do you have several deadlines?
Who owns the rights to the student's entry?
Does the contest require a certain topic for the poem or a certain style of poem?
What criteria do your judges use?
What kind of poems and essays are winners?
How will the prizes be awarded?
Why do we sponsor a student writing contest?
This can best be answered by a letter that we recently received.
"In this world of video games, virtual reality, and other technological hoopla, it is nice to have a group such as you who still value the written word! So many high school students love to write poetry and I think it is wonderful to provide a vehicle through which to showcase their work."
Anne Byrd, Teacher
Clover High School
Clover, South Carolina
Why do you request a student's home address?
Each year as we try to contact the finalists and winners in our contests we find that often schools do not forward or deliver mail to students. With a home address, we can be in direct contact with the student. We do not sell our mailing list. Home or school addresses will not be given or shared with any other company, individual or agency for any purpose. Home address information will only be used by Creative Communication to contact the winners of the contest and to inform other high merit entries about the results of the contest and the ensuing publication.
Can home school students enter?
Yes. As long as a student is in grades K-12 in the United States or Canada, it doesn't matter where they go to school.
How does the contest work?
Once we receive the entries from the students, the poems and essays are sent on to our judges. They go through the entries and less than 50% are accepted to be published. The judges then go through the entries that were accepted and narrow the entries to pick out the top 10 poems. The students that are accepted to be published are notified. Once the student verifies the entry is his or her original work and grants permission to be published then the entry is included in the anthology. Our judges then go through the entries to pick out the top ten winners for each grade division.
When can I expect to receive the book that I ordered?
The Spring contest the books are shipped in August and September. The Fall contest books are shipped in April and May. The Summer contest books are shipped in December. We appreciate your patience. The process of creating a quality hard-bound book takes a long time.
If I entered the Fall contest, can I enter the Spring contest also?
Yes, for both essay and poetry, you can enter both the Fall and the Spring contests, but only one entry is allowed per student for each one.
My school is not entering the contest, can I enter alone?
Yes, you can still enter the contest. Please include your school information including school name, address, and teacher's name. This helps us to be able to contact you and helps your teacher to possibly receive a free copy of the anthology.
What does it mean if I don't find my name on the winner's list?
The list of winners has the names of the Top Ten winners in each contest division. Being invited to be published means that your entry was in the top 45% of the entries for your area. It does not necessarily mean that you were a Top Ten Winner. The Top Ten Winners are chosen from the students who were selected to be published. The contest becomes very selective when it comes down to the Top Ten. A Top Ten winner will receive special recognition in the book, a free copy of the book and a $25 check. Students who were not winners, but were invited to be published, are included in the book when we receive their permission to publish their entry.
Is this a contest where everyone is accepted to be published?
Absolutely not! We take pride in the fact that we are selective with our entries. We reject more entries than we accept to be published. Our objective is to make it an honor to be selected for the anthology.
Why do you have several deadlines?
In the past, most of our contests had a deadline in December. To accommodate teachers who complete their poetry or essay writing unit in the fall we have the Fall deadline and for teachers who complete their poetry or essay writing unit in the spring we have the Spring deadline. We were then contacted by schools who were in session over the summer. The end result is that we have three deadlines. There is one deadline for each of the Fall, Spring and Summer contests. Entries that are received after a contest is over will automatically be entered into the next contest. Of course teachers may have students enter any contest, but only one entry is allowed per student for each contest.
Who owns the rights to the student's entry?
The student owns the rights to the entry. If an entry is selected to be published, we ask for one time permission to publish the entry and give all rights to the student.
Does the contest require a certain topic for the poem or a certain style of poem?
Most topics can be used for your poem and the poem can be written in most any style. Often a poem will stand out by being about a unique topic, but the most important criteria is how well the poem is written. Topics that have graphic violence, sexual situations or promote situations that are illegal such as suicide or drugs are not accepted to be published. Whereas most any style can be accepted we do not accept concrete poems that have words written upside down or backwards. We also do not publish "found" poems that take the words of other published authors and are used to make a poem.
Who are the judges?
The judges are published writers and/or educators in elementary, secondary and higher education.
What criteria do your judges use?
First of all, does the poem or essay meet the rules. We reject numerous poems that are over 21 lines, and essays that are over 250 words. We also receive numerous entries that we have to reject because no name or address are included. Second, we have to be able to read the entry. Often a group of entries will have been xeroxed and are unreadable or the entry is not written legibly. Third we look for literary merit, creativity and social significance. The entry should have correct grammar (however, we do give freedom to be poetic).
What kind of poems and essays are winners?
What is most important is that the poem and essay are well written and stand out as being excellent. What makes a poem or essay stand out is the use of language to create strong images, a topic that shows an unique awareness to an important issue, or a creative approach that shows originality.
How will the prizes be awarded?
For each grade level (K-3; 4-6; 7-9; 10- 12 in the poetry contest and 4-6; 7-9; 10-12 in the essay contest) the top ten entries in both the poetry and essay contests will be given a $25 check, special recognition in the book and a free copy of the anthology. The prizes will be mailed to the winners upon completion of the contest.
Will the entries be returned?
Because of the number of entries that are sent to our contest, no entries will be returned. For both the contest and the anthology that is published, the student will retain all rights to the entries submitted.
What does the book look like?
This book is professionally bound in an 8.5 x 11 format. The K-3 book is a 6 x 9 sized book.
* Entries are published with student's name, grade, school and state
* Each poet's name is indexed
* Each book is hard-bound with a full color cover

People often get confused about the concept of 'fading rewards' used in dog training, so it is worth looking at this in some detail.
When we begin teaching a new skill, we reward the dog each and every time he gets it right.
But, over time, to ensure that the new skill is maintained many trainers make rewards more intermittent or occasional.
We often refer to this as 'fading' rewards. People usually direct their enthusiasm for fading rewards at food.
They don't seem so worried about getting rid of other rewards like toys, games, or opportunities to run about and play.
Why do people fade rewards? – 1: bad reasons
There are good and bad reasons for fading rewards. Here are some bad reasons to fade rewards in dog training
- Because your friends don't use food
- Because your trainer says your dog is too dependent on food
- Because you can't be bothered to carry food around with you
- Because you are worried that your dog is not working for you out of love or respect
Many people start off by training with food, with the clear goal in mind, of getting rid of food as quickly as possible. This inevitably leads people to fade rewards long before the dog is ready, or far too quickly, or even to discontinue rewards altogether.
But my friends don't use food
There are still many people out there, that don't reward their dogs with food, if at all.
There are also many people out there that still use a lot of punishment in dog training, or that fail to train their dogs successfully. If you don't want to fall into either of these camps, you will need to use effective rewards for your dog, and food is one of the most convenient effective rewards available to you.
So try not to worry about what other people are doing
My trainer says food is cheating
Many traditional dog trainers view food as cheating. This is of course entirely up to them.
To avoid being harassed by a trainer over your use of food, you need to pick a modern dog trainer that teaches according to the principles of behavioural science.
Carrying food is a lot of trouble
I used to think that food was an annoying extra to take out with me, but you know, it really isn't a good idea to think this way.
Once you start telling yourself that food is a nuisance, the temptation is to try and wean your dog away from it too quickly.
And that way lies trouble.
Try to get used to having food around when you are dog training.
Buy yourself a nice treat bag. One that is easy to use, easy to wash and easy to clip and unclip from your belt or pocket.
Have a tupperware box in your fridge with food in it, so that you don't have to scrape about looking for treats at the last minute. Be prepared, it will make life much easier.
You want your dog to obey you because he loves and respects you
So, you are happy to use food to begin with? But ultimately your aim is to have your dog working for love. Or respect. Is that it?
Many people feel this way, but it is a sign that you are not really on board with how dogs learn and what makes dogs change their behaviour in any kind of permanent way.
Sadly, there is no way to make a dog 'respect' you in the way that people may respect one another. He doesn't have the intellectual capacity for this. What people really mean when they say their dog obeys out of respect, is that the dog fears the consequences if he does not obey. That isn't respect, it's intimidation.
As for love, unfortunately no one has ever yet managed to motivate behavioural change in a dog through love alone.
We have proven beyond doubt that the motivators for behavioural change in dogs are the expectation of a great outcome (which increases behaviour) or the expectation of an unpleasant outcome (which diminishes behaviour). We call these reinforcers and punishers. And they are the tools you have to choose between when it comes to training your dog.
Why do people fade rewards? – 2: Good reasons
Before we look at how and when to fade rewards in dog training, let's look at some of the good reasons for doing so. We can fade rewards
- In order to get the dog to try harder
- In order to make behaviours more reliable
- In order to get longer behaviour chains
Sometimes we want to encourage dogs to try harder, to jump higher, to run faster, to sit more quickly etc.
Trying harder!
If we begin to deliver rewards intermittently, or stop delivering them for a brief time, this often triggers a burst of effort from the dog as he tries to get the rewards coming fast and thick again.
This means that we can be more selective, move the goalposts a bit, or ask for something a bit different by rewarding only the best effort, or a particular aspect of the behaviour that we want to develop
Strictly speaking this is witholding rather than fading a reward, but it is all part of manipulating the way we deliver rewards and it is essential to the process of shaping.
When we fade rewards for a well learned skill, we also create an opportunity to offer much better rewards (by comparison) for new or more challenging behaviours.
Improving reliability
It has been shown in experiments that animals work harder for intermittent and unpredictable rewards. The evolutionary advantage of this characteristic is that it enables animals to be persistent in the face of environmental challenges.
You can read more about this phenomenon in this article: The gambling effect
It should be said that not all dog trainers believe this aspect of learning theory is particularly relevant to dog training, and some trainers nowadays do not fade rewards much, if at all.
I still do fade rewards, but I am open to the suggestion that continuous reinforcement may be a better option for maintaining reliability in some aspects of training.
Getting longer behaviour chains
When we first start teaching long duration behaviours, getting a dog to heel for long distances for example, or to lie down for long periods of time, we need to go to the dog and rewards him frequently.
To lengthen these long duration behaviours, you need to 'stretch out' the gaps between rewards. So that the dog is working longer and harder for less.
Bear in mind though, that this only works up to a point. Take this too far, and your behaviour will break down.
How to fade rewards
There are two main ways to fade rewards. We can reward less often, but we can also reduce the value of the rewards that we do offer.
If you are using high value rewards, this second approach is a good way to begin.
If I teach my dog to 'sit' in my kitchen, to begin with I might reward him with a piece of chicken for each and every sit. Once the 'sit' is well established, I can begin switching some of the chicken rewards to a little piece of kibble.
Once most of the rewards were kibble, I would then introduce the first approach and begin to omit some of the rewards entirely. So that the dog is being rewarded for some sits, and not for others.
This method of 'fading' from high value and frequent rewards to low value infrequent rewards is used in exactly the same way for any established skill at a given level.
When to increase rewards
Knowing when to increase rewards is as important as knowing when to fade them.
When we want to make things more difficult for the dog in training, teaching him a longer sit (stay) for example, or teaching him to sit outdoors, then we reintroduce continuous rewards.
If the task is a difficult one (working with distractions for example) then we also increase reward value.
If we were teaching the dog to stay whilst another dog walked past him, we would ditch the 'kibble' and return to the juicy chicken rewards.
Event markers
Don't forget, if you are using an event marker in your dog training, you need to omit this whenever you omit the reward.
So, if you are clicker training, don't 'click' if you are not intending to 'treat'.
The problem with fading rewards
The most common problem with fading rewards is that people try to go too far or too fast.
To the point that some modern dog trainers will simply avoid teaching people to fade rewards at all, because the fading process is so often done poorly.
Remember that 'fading' rewards does NOT mean getting rid of them completely.
If you ditch rewards completely, your trained behaviour will gradually die.
Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but it will die. Never stop rewarding completely, any behaviour that you want your dog to carry on doing for the long term.
Remember also that rewards do not need to be food based, though food is very convenient. You need to be objective about whether or not you are reinforcing your dog's behaviour effectively. If the behaviour is breaking down, you probably are not.
You'll find lots of examples of how to fade rewards in Pippa's book Total Recall a complete recall training programme for puppies and adult dogs

A NovelBook - 2013
From Library Staff
AliceP_KCMO Oct 24, 2017
A supernatural tale to bridge the gap from Halloween to Christmas. Charlie Manx likes to take children for rides to his special amusement park called Christmasland. Victoria McQueen has a way of tracking things down, but when she tracks down Charlie Manx it will change them both forever.
From the critics

This is chilling. I should have read this book in winter for full atmospheric effect. Kate Mulgrew's raspy voice lends itself well to the narration, especially to the voice of Charlie Manx. There were moments where I regretted listening to NOS4A2 in the dark.
At many points during this book I felt like I was reading classic Stephen King. Joe clearly took inspiration from his dad's writing, in a good way. His writing isn't as elegant, and some of his supporting characters were almost cartoonish, but he still manages to creep under the skin. Those kids in Christmasland? Ghastly. Terrifying. This book says a lot about childhood. No matter how many buffers adults create, kids are never really safe.
Very nicely done. Charter development, pace, and setting. Classic Joe Hill. Good read -
Vic McQueen has a special gift....she can cross a bridge that appears only before her at will. ....
she can find anything.....who knows what she will find at the other end and where it will take
her.....characters are both good and evil....
This book was always on the shelf in the library and I looked at it so many times before it registered.... N0S4A2..... Nosferatu. Oh my god. I had to suddenly read it. I am glad I did, because this was one hell of a ride. I loved the protagonist and I really rooted for her. This book was creepy, thrilling, and despite it's literal length, was a really quick read. I enjoyed it even more than Heart Shaped Box. Joe Hill is one I will return to again and again!
Great book and worth a listen! Bridges the worlds of Stephen King and his son Joe Hill.
Wow!! I'm definitely a new fan of Joe Hill.
NOS4A2 was a thrilling ride. I can definitely see Hill's relation to King in his writing. However, his voice is certainly his own, and I enjoyed his storytelling very much.
The idea behind NOS4A2 was very intriguing. I found the concept of inscapes to be fascinating. The idea that we all have the power to bring life to our thought worlds is definitely inspiring to a want to be writer.
The characters all felt real and well developed. I always enjoy a good flawed character, and boy were they all deliciously flawed.
Manx was terrifying and complex, my favorite combination in a villain.
I would definitely recommend this to any fan of King or just anyone looking to be creeped out and willing to never view Christmas ornaments or enjoy the smell of gingerbread the same way again.
There is so much within N0S4A2 that I loved that it is impeccably difficult to put into words. The characters alone make this one a fantastic read; I am adding Vic McQueen and Maggie to my list of favorite literary characters. I would play scrabble and discuss libraries with Maggie any day!
Now onto the elephant in the room- our villain- Charles Talent Manx III aka Charlie Manx aka N0S4A2 aka The Wraith.
He is everything you could ever want in a creepy, evil man: pale, veiny face with bulging eyes and brown, decaying teeth. He is as it is physically possible to being actual Nosferatu as it comes. With him comes the promise of the permanent voyage and residency to a place called Christmasland, where it is Christmas everyday! Bad news is, kid, you become an evil little sh*t like him.
What I also loved about Manx's character is that he was flamboyantly (is this possible) evil- he bears it as a fact and is just doing one simple thing: "saving" kids from terrible parents to give them what their parents could not. Not to mention, his ride is snazzy. A Rolls Royce Wraith- with, you guessed the novel's namesake, N0S4A2 as the license plate. For whatever reason, I was pleased that his weapon of choice for the majority of the novel was a bone hammer- an object used solely in autopsies.
With a tip of the hat to Hill's previous novel Horns, I reveled in the connections with the inscapes and existence of two worlds; the real and the imaginary.
Really enjoyed the story! And while I understand it was a complex adventure with a lot of ground to cover in terms of character development and background, I felt it dragged just a bit too long and by the end I was having a harder time paying attention. But if your looking for creepy horror with a supernatural spin then definitely have a go at this.
There are many interesting elements to this story. However, Mr. Hill takes far too long to tell the story. There is a LOT of repetition both of descriptions and events. It seems that he really wants the reader to know Victoria, but he continues to give you the same surface level information about her over and over again. I never really felt that I got to the heart of who she was. Also, the reader can see the end of the story coming from a mile away but it takes a long time to get there. Once I finally arrived at the end, I felt that I had come up empty. I was expecting Mr. Hill to give us a little more than the ending we were expecting, but despite the many pages, it was exactly that.
I read a lovely short story by Mr. Hill, "Silver Waters of Lake Champaign." The writing was very lyrical and the story felt complete and meaningful. Though I was not a fan of "NOS4A2" I will most likely give some of Mr. Hill's other work a read based on my enjoyment of the short story.
Great read. Excellent pace, twists and turns, but hangs together well and finishes with a bang!

SummaryAdd a Summary
Vic McQueen is an average girl with a seriously abnormal ability -- when she rides her bike, she can open a bridge through space to find lost objects. When Vic tries to use her gift to find "trouble," she comes face to face with the equally gifted, and utterly evil, Charles Manx. Charles Manx uses his car like Vic uses her bike, but instead of finding lost things, he spirits children away into Christmasland, where they never grow old, never feel sorrow, and lose their humanity to become sociapathic monsters. Vic escapes Charles Manx, only to have her life scarred by the echo of Christmasland. When Charles Manx returns to target Vic's son, she has to pit her magic and courage against Manx's for the stake of her son's soul.

Labour can help bring our voting system into the 21st century
12 January, 2018
• OUR giant Christmas card asking Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn to support proportional representation was signed by 17,707 people, including 9,858 Labour voters, 3,323 Labour members and 221 of his constituents, mostly gathered on the streets of Islington on December 16.
When I spoke with Mr Corbyn on that day he agreed to meet these constituents to discuss PR. I hope to arrange the meeting.
Last week, Chris Skidmore, Minister for the Constitution, accused the Labour Party of gerrymandering because it may vote against proposed boundary reforms. Mr Skidmore claimed the current electoral system is biased in favour of Labour and is an "affront to democracy".
This is absurd. The Conservatives have 49 per cent of seats with 42 per cent of the vote, while Labour has 40 per cent of the seats with 40 per cent of the vote. The proposed boundary changes would likely skew the results even further in favour of the Conservatives.
Ironically, this would have a profound effect on constituents even in strong Labour seats like Mr Corbyn's. Attacks on public services, human rights, trade unions and the environment affect everyone, wherever they live.
Yet under "first past the post", these can all be undertaken by governments elected on well under 40 per cent of the vote. A constituency link alone is little consolation to most people if the country is governed against their wishes.
The answer is to adopt a form of proportional representation with a constituency link. Voters would keep accountable, local representation, and would also be protected from divisive minority rule.
By supporting proportional representation, Labour would show it can be at the forefront of democratic improvement, and bring our outdated, unjust and unstable electoral system into the 21st century.
We call on Mr Corbyn to lead Labour to take one of the most important steps in this country's history; to fully commit to the adoption of a proportional voting system in Westminster elections in order that, 100 years after women won the vote, we can finally make every vote matter.

A Focus On Social Work In Action
The UA School of Social Work undergraduate program offers a close-knit and diverse community of students, faculty, and staff within UA's large, vibrant campus.
Our rigorous academic program prepares graduates for generalist social work practice, graduate study in social work, and careers that require skills in critical thinking, problem-solving, communication, and inter-professional collaboration. The program emphasizes the value of diversity and the importance of promoting social and economic justice.
Why Our BSW degree?
Our BSW graduates are prepared to assist people of all ages, from all walks of life, in a variety of settings. Students learn valuable professional skills while improving the health and wellbeing of individuals, families, and communities. A BSW degree also provides an excellent foundation in problem-solving, communication, and inter-professional collaboration, skills which are valued by many professions and graduate degree programs. Some of the unique opportunities we offer our students include:
- Field internship in Washington, D.C or choose from more than 250 social service agencies
- A social work honor's program
- Research experiences with faculty and graduate students
- Opportunities for service learning
- Community-engaged student organizations
BSW FAQsLearn more about our BSW Program in our Frequently Asked Questions! (pdf)
Students begin our BSW Program as pre-social work majors and spend their first two years in the program completing their core curriculum requirements. Students, however, can declare a major in social work when they are freshmen, sophomores, or juniors.
