The foreclosure crisis could end up directly affecting as many as 8.3 million children, according to a report out this week from the advocacy group First Focus. That's a little more than one in every 10 children in the country.
First Focus says it arrived at this figure by adding up all the children in homes that have already entered foreclosure, all the homes at immediate risk of foreclosure and all the rental properties that have been foreclosed on or appear to be at risk. The report, which was authored by a scholar from Brookings, calls its 8.3 million estimate "relatively conservative."
Foreclosures tend to put families in motion, often sending parents to new towns and children to new schools, which can result in emotional and behavioral problems for kids, according to USA Today. First Focus suggests that the stress of foreclosure can also impact parenting styles for the worst -- a plausible conclusion, given that foreclosure-related stress has been linked with depression, anxiety and compulsive behavior in adults.
And the problem goes beyond foreclosure, with more than 16 million children in poverty as of 2010, and recession-related anxiety making ripples in kids' behavior even among the middle and upper middle class.
The report is a reminder of how many families are struggling to maintain a basic level of economic security this election year -- despite the modest economic recovery taking hold.
Unemployment remains high, basic expenses are still out of reach for many, and some analysts believe a new wave of foreclosures is on the horizon, thanks to the multibillion-dollar mortgage settlement that was recently reached with some of the country's largest banks. That settlement will allow some homeowners to deal with their debts, but could also speed the foreclosure process. Some banks had slowed down their foreclosure efforts awaiting the resolution of the mortgage deal.
While some lenders have shown a growing willingness to explore alternatives to foreclosure, like conducting short sales or allowing tenants to stay on as renters, foreclosure remains a wide-scale phenomenon.

NORWICH Norwich businessman Douglas S. Christman, 76, who passed away Thursday, is remembered this morning as a friend, a mentor and a quiet leader.
He was a well-known area Chevrolet-Buick dealer at Christman Motor Sales Inc. in Norwich for more than 50 years. He became owner-operator in 1978.
He worked with his cousin, Hank Scudder, and friend, Tom Morrone.
He was a great mentor and a great friend. A good business partnership is like a marriage; it has its ups and downs, but it always sticks together. We were always in contact with each other, said Morrone.

But to some, like longtime resident Fred Barman, "little" just doesn't cut it.
"Everyone refers to it as little. And that's the thing that's really stupid," said Barman.
Barman is pushing the Beverly Hills City Council to officially change the street's name. He says there are too many Santa Monica Boulevards in Beverly Hills, with North Santa Monica and South Santa Monica.
Barman's solution: forget the "south" and "little" monikers and just consider it an extension of the already existing Burton Way, which Barman says was its original name.
But ask around Beverly Hills, and you may be hard pressed to find people who support changing the street's name.
"Santa Monica Boulevard, the name is iconic Beverly Hills and I think it should stay the same. It's historical," said Sue Winchester of Beverly Hills.
Others say they don't see the point in changing the name and think it will cause more confusion.
Meantime, some businesses, like Frankie & Johnnie's Pizza, aren't too excited about a proposed name change. They said they'd have to change their boxes and it could confuse many of their customers.
"If they change the whole name, then that's going to be really expensive," said Ramon Manuel of Frankie & Johnnie's Pizza. "I think they should just leave it alone because it works."
Barman says a name change would be phased in over several years. The street will retain its South Santa Monica name with Burton Way added to the signage. And even if the new name is hated, he says it's already generating something Beverly Hills loves: publicity.
"It's the old saying, 'Like it or not, spell my name right,'" said Barman.

You Can't Detect What You Can't See: Illuminating the Entire Kill Chain
On-Demand Webinar
The company's new line of Sun Cobalt Linux boxes, due out early in the second quarter of this year, are expected to expand the use of Linux beyond its existing appliances. The low-priced, horizontally scalable servers are expected to compete directly with similar software offerings from IBM and Microsoft.
This doesn't mean that the Palo Alto, Calif.-based networking giant is abandoning its Unix roots or its Solaris/SPARC strategy.
"We wouldn't dream of giving up that asset," says Sun Content Delivery And Edge Computing vice president and general manager Steve DeWitt. "Solaris is still one of the best Unix platforms out there. You can count on your fingers or toes the number of companies using that 64-bit architecture.
"Let's face it," he said. "Microsoft is pushing the same stuff with no R&D involved and IBM's model is go wherever the marketing hype is. Sun is a systems company and Linux is a part of the evolution. It's about making developer's life easy."
DeWitt is quite the "edge" evangelist. As former CEO of Cobalt Networks, which Sun acquired in December 2000, DeWitt says the edge of the network is evolving rapidly.
"We see the edge infrastructure as green fields for Sun." says DeWitt. "The axis here is that companies need to be delivering costs less than the something that is being delivered. If it costs me $25 per subscriber per year for instant messaging, it's not cost effective."
The Penguin Walk
In what it called a three-pronged approach, Sun plans in the future to roll out a full Linux operating system; expand its line of Sun Cobalt Linux appliances and craft a new family of low-end Linux/x86-based systems; and endear itself to the Linux community by offering developers code to its Solaris operating environment software.
The rest of Sun's Linux strategy includes:
To top it off, Sun will provide Linux-oriented services -- not just code and infrastructure. The company already released a tool, ABIcheck, to help developers assure compatibility between Linux releases. ABIcheck was ported from Solaris to Linux and released under an open source license.
Dark Horse
Despite its wrangling in the Linux space, Sun says one of its greatest challenges come from Linux-in-a-box companies like Red Hat.
The Durham, N.C.-based company, like so many other Linux publishers, has an off-the-shelf solution for the Linux operating system. In a world where CDs are cheap and fast to produce, that could pose a serious threat to Sun's development in the sector even with the constant changes to open source code.
But Sun says its sees the opportunity in the developer world where it maintains a strong foothold and will continue to focus on XML and other services to compete with the Red Hat's of the world.
"We often got questions like, 'Will you offer the Red Hat with fun stuff?'" says DeWitt. "The answer is that we think there is great value in our enterprise-grade Linux distribution solution. That's something you can't get in a CD."
Currently, Sun is not a member of the Open Source Developers Lab's (OSDL) Linux projects, but says it plans to participate. The company is also shifting its workforce to give more emphasis on Linux initiatives.
The company says to expect it to build on its Linux strategy with more announcements coming up at its JavaOne conference this month in San Francisco.

How to get going again after downsizingCoach's Corner--June 8, 2009
Q. Our company has done some downsizing, which we hope is behind us. However, morale is low right when we need to get going. How can I help the survivors adjust to our "new normal"?
The ClientName: Max
Age: 45
Title: Owner
Industry: Construction company
Issue: Improving morale after downsizing
A. Use honesty and inspiration to help your company move forward.
The inner game
To start, know how you'd like the mood at your company to feel. Picture the ideal employee-customer relationship, dynamics among people, and management style of your leadership team. Focus less on what you'd like people to be doing, and more on how you'd like them to be thinking and feeling. Recall times when you've seen deeply engaged groups, and analyze the elements that created that flow.
You'll also have to confront your own doubts. As head of the company, you have a profound impact on your employees' attitudes. If you don't really believe that you can create an engaged and energized workforce, it won't happen. If you're fearful about the future, that'll carry over as well. You may need some help with this by seeking out a friend, family member, business mentor, or coach. It's a learning process, so be ready to stay the course.
The outer game
Big changes, such as downsizing and workforce restructuring, create a new beginning for a company — but it can be a traumatic start. To get a good start, bring your employees into the loop. If you've made decisions behind closed doors, open up a bit. Don't hide mistakes, and also share your insights. Help employees understand the decisions you've made and why you've made them, and let them know how you and other management have shared in the sacrifices. Share your strategies for the future so they are more invested in your subsequent decisions. And recognize that anger and grief are part of the aftermath, providing safe ways to express it.
Change also brings the opportunity to transform your workplace in ways that'll make everyone happier and get better business results. Try looking for models that have worked for other businesses, such as the approach outlined in "Thank God It's Monday" by Roxanne Emmerich. Talk to people you know at companies that have a work environment that you admire. Build on others' work rather than starting from scratch with your strategy.
Once you've chosen a path, commit to it. Lip service will only cause problems. Not only does your commitment need to be solid, you'll also need to have your entire leadership team on board. Invite them to be partners in the new approach; your ability to sell your vision to your managers will help with rolling it out to all your employees. Involve others in refining your vision, and also be ready to hold firm if people resist. This is the testing ground for your commitment to your vision of success, and you'll need to put your company first.
The last word
Address the impact of hard times honestly and openly, and move forward with commitment to an inspiring vision for your company. It's not easy, but it can be done, and it'll help you during challenging economic times.

Five-story apartment complex sought for downtown Gresham
A towering five-story apartment building could be the next development to rise in Gresham's historic downtown.
Newly-released renderings show a transformed parking lot between Main and Miller avenues — adding four floors of residences above ground-floor retail in one structure.
The alleyway behind East Hill Church would be reworked as a paved drive aisle that connects both avenues. A second lane branching off from Northeast 3rd Street could create frontage along the back of several pre-existing buildings, but would likely require some demolition.
A "soft center" public plaza would anchor the apartment block facing Gresham Library.
One of the two backers, Mike McKeel, wants the project to offer 15 percent of the units at affordable rates below market value. The developer and dentist thinks roughly 70 people could call that building home.
"It'll be old but it'll still be new," McKeel said from the site, a vacant lot behind the now defunct Billy Bob's Sports Bar. "We'll keep the funky stuff."
The plans are only preliminary, with construction unlikely to begin for at least a year or two.
McKeel along with his business partner Thomas Bikales haven't submitted the apartment drawings to Gresham City Hall, which requires a rigorous permitting process. And as a member of the city's Design Commission, McKeel would need to step back when blueprints hit that desk.
The builders are also mulling the future of a poured-concrete storage facility on the north side of the lot. Designs would retain the bones of the structure but build two floors of residential above.
Plans to replace the former site of Standing Room Only bar with a three-story residential walkup have been nixed.
"I want to make it human scale. A great place to walk through with some open space," McKeel added. "(In architecture), sometimes what you leave out is more important than what you put in."
The 65,000-square-foot property changed hands March 29, after the two developers purchased the land for $3.27 million during a bankruptcy auction. Brothers Bill and Frank Hartner lost the site in April 2016, after running up a $3 million tab, according to previous Outlook reporting.

Listen to the New, Chase-y Beyoncé-Naughty Boy Song, 'Runnin' (Lose It All)'
Featuring Arrow Benjamin and a music video, too!
Good things come to those who scream passionately for more Beyoncé music, and here it is, in the form of her first new substantial material (technically Naughty Boy's) since last year's "Ring Off" and "7/11" (as well as some other features). Naughty's "Runnin'" pairs Bey's hallowed pipes with those of the electrifying Brit singer Arrow Benjamin; the result is a very unsurprisingly earworm-y duet. As for the video, the people in it are as deep as the song (thankfully, though, they are also like Tom Cruise in Rogue Nation).

A breakdown in protein metabolism, leading to the accumulation of misfolded proteins, is a hallmark of ALS, Alzheimer's, and other neurodegenerative diseases. Two recent papers published by Project ALS Research Advisor Alfred Goldberg (Harvard) and collaborators in Karen Duff's lab (Columbia) show that by enhancing the cell's "ubiquitin-proteasome pathway"—essentially, its protein waste removal system—we can clear toxic proteins and restore function in these fatal brain diseases.
These studies, published in Nature Medicine (Jan '16) and Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (Dec '15), showed that Rolipram, a brain-penetrant drug originally developed to treat depression, boosts the activity of the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, diminishing protein accumulation in stem cell models of ALS and improving cognitive function in an Alzheimer's mouse model.
Now, Goldberg and fellow Project ALS Research Advisor Robert Brown (UMass) are testing this discovery in ALS mouse models, with the goal of validating these findings and moving into human clinical trials as quickly as possible.

Most Commonly Asked Fish Questions
What do you want to know about fish? Here are some of the questions we hear most often:
There are approximately 27,300 species of fishes described by science. Many species have yet to be described and still others are likely entirely unknown. Estimates of the actual diversity of fishes vary, although many agree that in total there are probably about 31,500 different kinds of living fishes. There are more kinds of fishes than all the other groups of vertebrates combined.
An anadromous ("a-na-drom-ous") fish is born in freshwater, moving from freshwater to salt water, and then returning to freshwater to spawn (reproduce). An example is the salmon.
A catadromous ("ca-ta-drom-ous") fish is just the opposite. These fish are born in saltwater, spend most of their lives in freshwater, and return to the saltwater to spawn. The American eel is an example of a catadromous fish.
The largest fish in the world is the whale shark Rhincodon typus. It can grow to more than 50 feet in length and can weigh several tons. The second largest fish is the basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus) which can grow up to 45 feet in length.
The smallest fish in the world lives among the coral reefs of the Indo-west Pacific. The scientific name of this fish is Trimmatom nanus. It grows to only 1 cm in length.
That depends on the fish species. Fishes can live a few weeks or months (some of the small reef fishes) or in excess of 100 years (as in certain beryciform fishes).
How long an animal lives is referred to as its longevity and there is not a great deal of longevity information known, with respect to all fish.
Scientist are able to determine the age of fish by counting growth rings. These growth rings are found on vertebrae, otoliths (ear bones), and some types of scales. While many bony fish can be aged with scales and otoliths, elasmobranchs, which lack otoliths and suitable scales, are typically aged using vertebrae.
The cause of the ring formation is not known, but may be related to seasonal changes in the environment or some endogenous cue such as hormone levels. There are typically two types of growth rings, wide opaque rings usually representing summer growth, and thin translucent rings usually representing winter growth, with one pair of rings representing one year of growth. However, before scientists can accurately age the animal, they must verify when the rings are deposited on the vertebrae, otolith, or scale.
The most primitive group of fishes alive today are the Agnatha which includes hagfishes and lampreys. These animals never developed biting jaws, like humans. Hagfishes and lampreys are bottom dwellers, slimy, completely lack scales of armor, and are long and eel-like. Lineages from which these fish were derived date back to the Paleozoic.
Ancestral hagfish and lampreys date to the Carboniferous period, 350,000,000 years ago. Biologists are very interested in these animals because their body characteristics such as their shape and function help explain the evolutionary processes that have lead to the more advanced forms of fish we see today.
The common names of fish vary from place to place and this makes it very difficult for people to differentiate among species. For example, blacktip sharks are called "common blacktip shark" in Australia and "requiem shark" in the United Kingdom. A uniform naming system is a much easier way to differentiate among species regardless of how many common names they have.
The system used to name the 30,000 or so fishes of the world is called "the binomial system of nomenclature". Through this system a fish is given a Latin scientific name, which is usually made of two parts: the genus and species, or three parts if a subspecies has been described. The genus name applies to a group of species displaying basic characteristics while the species name is based on a few characteristics that apply to one species which is distinct from all others.
For example, the genus Carcharhinus applies to many different sharks; the specific epithet for three of those sharks are Carcharhinus limbatus, C. falciformis, and C. leucas. Remember the first part the name is the genus (Carcharhinus) and the second part is the specific epithet (or species) (limbatus, falciformis, and leucas).
Fishes breathe by means of highly vascularized tissues known as gills. As water passes over the fine gill membranes, the fish absorbs the water's oxygen content. Gills contain a network of fine blood vessels (capillaries) that take up oxygen and diffuse it through the membranes. A wide variety of fishes have evolved the capability to breathe atmospheric air, including walking catfish (Clarias batrachus), and tarpon (Megalops atlanticus), as well as the betta (Betta splendens), a popular aquarium fish.
No. Most fish swim horizontally, however there are many exceptions. The shrimpfish and seahorse are two fishes that swim vertically. Indo-Pacific shrimpfish (family Centriscidae) form schools and swim vertically with their tube-like snouts directed upward. Other fish include a variety of midwater deepsea fishes that swim and/or rest vertically.
Fish do not chew their food the same way we do.
Many carnivorous fishes (meat eating) use their sharp teeth to capture and hold prey while swallowing it whole or in large pieces. We use teeth to grind food into tiny pieces, and then we swallow.
Bottom dwellers such as rays have large flat teeth that crush the shellfish they eat. A number of herbivorous fishes (grazers) grind their food in a manner similar to humans. However, the tooth-like grinding mills are located in the throat rather than in the mouth, and are referred to as pharyngeal ("phar-yn-geal") teeth.
Many fishes are able to see color, however some colors do not penetrate into deep waters.
Blue is more easily seen at depths than other colors such as red and yellow. This is why many deepwater fishes are red in color. This red coloration makes them more difficult for predators to see.
Fish have cone cells in their retinas, which are the color receptors in many organisms including humans. It is believed that fish perception of color is very different than ours.
There are flatfishes that have eyes on the left side (sinistral) and those with eyes on the right side (dextral). Flatfishes include flounders, tongue soles, and turbots. Rarely, individuals of some species of flatfishes may be sinistral or dextral.
All puffer-like fish inflate by pumping water or air into special sacs, causing them to take on a balloon-like appearance. This behavior is thought to be an anti-predator response.
An electric eel can give an electric charge of more than 350 volts, and some large individuals have been recorded to discharge as high as 650 volts!
Moray eels are fish that have well developed teeth, and lack scales and pectoral fins.
Moray eels live in tropical and subtropical ocean waters of the world. In the United States, they are mostly found in Florida waters, although some have been seen as far north as North Carolina and even New Jersey.
Moray eels feed on coral reef fishes. Some moray eels have teeth in the back of their mouths that they use to crush hard-shelled animals such as clams and oysters.
The great barracuda, moray eels, octopuses, and sea urchins can all be dangerous to swimmers. The Portuguese man-of-war has tentacles that can reach up to 50 feet long and contain specialized stinging cells. If you are not careful, stingrays, toadfish, catfish, and jellyfish can inflict harm on swimmers and waders.

Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F.
Remove 1/4 inch of the crust from one end of the bread and enough of the crust from the other end so you have a 12-inch loaf. Reserve the ends for another use. Cut the loaf crosswise into 4 even pieces. Use a fork to score one cut end and gently dig a square hole into each piece of bread to make a box, leaving a 1/2-inch layer of bread around the walls and bottom (see Cook's Note). Save the removed crumbs for another use.
Microwave the butter and a large pinch of salt in a small microwave-safe bowl until melted, about 1 minute. Brush the bread boxes inside and out with the melted butter. Put 1/3 cup of the potato chips and 1 slice of American cheese at the bottom of each bread box. Put the boxes open-side up on a baking sheet and bake until the cheese melts and the inside of the bread is lightly browned and crispy in parts, about 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, stir together the mayonnaise, mustard, celery, shallot, some hot sauce and a large pinch of salt in a medium bowl until combined. Fold in the tuna. Season with additional salt and hot sauce if needed.
Fill each bread box in this order: 1/2 cup of the tuna salad, 4 pickle slices, another 1/2 cup of the tuna salad, 1 slice of tomato and 2 additional slices of American cheese. Return the boxes to the oven and bake until the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes. Top with the sprouts, if using, cut in half or leave whole and serve immediately.
Don't worry if you accidentally make a hole at the bottom of the bread when carving out the boxes--just fill the hole with a loose piece of bread.

NATO's European Allies are facing multiple threats to their security and integrity since the end of the Cold War. The conflict in Ukraine and fracture with Russia continues to destabilise the region, in spite of continued efforts to enforce the Minsk ceasefire. In the Middle East, Turkey has called on its fellow NATO Allies to aid in their fight against Da'esh, which threatens to unravel the geopolitical tapestry of the Middle East. Borders are being tested by the largest refugee crisis since the Second World War. NATO plays a decisive role in ensuring collective security for all Allies. Faced by threats to the East and to the South, NATO does not have the luxury of choosing which challenges to focus on. The need for transatlantic leadership and cooperation is self-evident, so how can NATO best respond when instability is closer to our doorsteps than it has ever been?
Join YPFP and NATO Deputy Secretary-General Ambassador Alexander Vershbow as we discuss these and other challenges facing NATO and its Allies.

Child benefits if you are working
Child benefits do change from time to time, so it's a good idea to check with the relevant organization. But this guide may help to explain which pieces of support you – or your child – could apply for:
Child Benefit
You should get this if you're the main carer for your child and he or she is:
- under 16, or
- over 16 but under 20 and in education or training that counts for Child Benefit
under 18 and left education or training but registered for work, education or training with a carers service, Connexions or the Ministry of Defence
Working Tax Credits
You have to be over 16 to apply for this. But if you're working at least 16 hours or more each week and either have a disability or you're the main carer, then you could get Working Tax Credits.
If you're over 25, then you need to be working 30 hours or more each week to qualify. But in both cases, you may qualify for help towards the costs of registered or approved childcare.
Child Tax Credits
This benefit depends on your earnings and circumstances. But you may qualify if you're the main carer and your child is:
- under 16, or,
- over 16 but under 20 and in education or training that counts for Child Benefit, or,
- under 18 and recently left education or training but registered for work, education or training with a carers service, Connexions or the Ministry of Defence.
Free school meals
Your children could get free school meals if they go to what's known as a local 'authority maintained' school in England and Wales or a 'local authority' school in Scotland. But to qualify, you must only be getting Child Tax Credit (not Working Tax Credit) and be earning less than £16,190 a year.
Free prescriptions, free dental treatment, free eye tests
Usually, you need to be on Income Support or getting Jobseeker's Allowance to qualify for these benefits.
But you will qualify for them if you're pregnant, or have had a baby in the last 12 months. And your children can get these benefits if they're under 16 or under 19 and in full-time education.
For more details about other benefits – things like Income Support, Jobseekers Allowance and Housing Benefits – please look at the government's Benefits calculator website.

|Private Security Industry Bill [Lords]
Mr. Hawkins: I know that this has been a subject of special interest for the right hon. Gentleman over many years, as he said on Second Reading. He mentioned that other countries' legislation covering this field is better. Which country's legislation is a paradigm of virtues in that regard?
The Chairman: Order. Before the right hon. Gentleman replies to that, I have been exceedingly generous in allowing comment that has made no reference whatsoever to the amendment that we are supposed to be debating. I have allowed such generosity to prevail because I felt that it was appropriate to set the scene, but I hope that when the right hon. Gentleman has dealt with the intervention he will refer to the amendment.
Mr. George: I was merely clearing my throat, Mr. Winterton. Not only shall I tell the hon. Member for Surrey Heath, I shall send him the legislation. Brieflyalthough, as a Welshman, I find it difficult to be briefhaving investigated Sweden, Denmark, the Netherlands, Spain, some of the provinces in Canada and Australia and one or two in the United States, South Africa and Russia, which will surprise hon. Members, I learned that there is not much point in having good regulation, which is fairly easy to introduce. What matters is having the means of enforcing it. That is far important to Russia, which has good legislation but not good enforcement.
Thank you, Mr. Winterton, for bringing me back on to the straight and narrow. The clause is the best clause in the Bill. It sets the stall out clearly. I have little difficulty with the rest of the clause, and when we reach clause stand part, my comments will be generally rather eulogistic. Even the amendment is not a fundamental criticism of the clause or the Bill, and would merely add to what is already in the clause. I propose to include in the clause an obligation on the part of the authority to carry out a fundamental review of the practice of the legislation and that a written report should be sent within three years to the Secretary of State, which will be laid before both Houses of Parliament for their consideration.
The reason for the amendment is that I believe that the Bill is rather strange. Despite the fact that we have been waiting a quarter of a century for it and that a consultative paper was issued, some signs suggest that matters proceeded rather swiftly in the Home Office. That might be one reason why so much is to be left to statutory instruments, thereby giving the Security Industry Authority the chance to analyse the Bill, consult industry, decide on statutory instruments and discuss the matter with the Home Secretary. In that respect, I have no difficulties.
However, the Bill will have an enormous impact on the operation of the private security industry. Other legislation will have an impact, too, such as the national minimum wage and legislation emanating from I shall not mention where, for fear of inflaming Opposition Members. If I mention human rights, perhaps they will have a clue what I am talking about. Developing technology and the increasing concentration and internationalisation of the industry will result in enormous changes. Many factors will have a profound effect on the evolution of the private security industry.
The structures that will be required as a result of the Bill will vary in their effectiveness. It is vital that the Bill is reviewed quickly and that recommendations are made for the improvement of the operation of the SIA and of the Bill to establish it, following a suitable period to enable the effectiveness of the structures set up to be evaluated. Sufficient time must be provided to consult outside organisations and the Home Office and to establish whether we and the Home Office have done our collective work effectively and have devised a decent Bill to meet the many problems that the private security industry has faced, is facing and will face. That should be done, so that, in three or four yearsand, perhaps, in the lifetime of the next Parliamentsufficient changes can be made either to fine-tune or, in some cases, to substantially alter the Bill.
All Governments, Members of Parliament and Committees are somewhere along a steep learning curve. With no disrespect to the Minister or his able civil servants, I suspect that, over the years, they have not been able or instructed to develop a great interest in the private security industry. The philosophy of the previous Government, with which I disagreed, was to shunt things out to the private sector. That only stiffened the staff in the Home Office because, whenever there was a crisis, people were brought in from other Departments; the excellent inquiry and report by the Home Affairs Committee is an example of that.
10.15 am
The Home Office will have time to beef up its staff and to realise that there is more to dealing with law and order than the engagement of the police force and more to tackling prevention and detection than the involvement of local authorities. The private security industry is two or even three times larger than the police, depending on how the industry is defined and the Home Office will have a chance to get up to speed. The SIAhalf of which, I presume, will not be drawn from the private security industrywill be able to learn about the nature of that incredibly complicated industry. Representatives from the security industry will have ample opportunities to see how the legislation is working and talk to their mates in other companies. Right hon. and hon. Members have not so far displayed great enthusiasm for following the workings of the private security industry unless something big crops up, and there is a nice, easy story to be grasped. We, too, will be able to see what is happening, monitor and offer advice.
Mr. Hawkins: I understand entirely the right hon. Gentleman's suggestions and he makes a good point. However, I am puzzled by one aspect of his argument. If and when the Bill is enacted, a new authority will be set up, and he seems to be saying that he anticipates that there will also be more civil servants within the Home Office dealing with that matter. Clearly, that will have additional cost implications. Is the right hon. Gentleman saying that, in addition to the setting up of a new quango, there will be more civil servants?
Mr. George: It would be easy for me to say that I do not anticipate a substantial increase, but the fact is that there will not be a substantial increase. It is right that civil servants in the Home Office who are currently engaged with another form of policing, or non-policing, will be invited to attend courses and bone up on an issue with which they have not been directly involved hitherto in order to provide the Secretary of State and the Minister of State with more information.
I am not criticising existing civil servants, and I assure the hon. Gentleman that I am not suggesting that there will be a recruitment drive for 150 additional staff for the Home Office. I am merely suggesting that there should be a reorientation, because private security is coming out from the shadows and more into the mainstream of policingin its broadest sensesecurity and crime prevention. Greater accountability will mean that more Members of Parliament will take an interest, more questions will be asked, there will be more conferences to attend and more liaison will take place with the industry. We will all have to adjust to a situation in which private security becomes more central to the operations of those who are interested in policing and crime prevention.
The clause provides the SIA with powers to review the operation of the Act and recommend modification. However, nothing in the Bill would ensure a public debate on the effectiveness of the Act, which would include those who are directly or indirectly involved in the industry. The chairman of the SIA might ensure that anyway; I am confident that he or she would do so, but the amendment would merely insert into the Bill an obligation to undertake the inquiry, which would show that we were watching what those concerned were doing and bring a greater degree of transparency to the operation.
Mr. Bercow: I am slightly apprehensive in the light of what the right hon. Gentleman said in response to my hon. Friend the Member for Surrey Heath. The right hon. Gentleman has raised the spectre of a modest, perhaps necessary but apparently incessant trickle of increasing costs as the Act unfolds. Does he agree that in the review of the practice and operation of the Act for which his amendment calls, there should be proper consideration of the cost-effectiveness of the authority and of how that relates to the prognosis contained in the regulatory impact assessment?
Mr. George: I see no objection whatever, but I must caution the hon. Gentleman in the following terms. I anticipate that 350,000 people in the private security industry may eventually be dependent on reviews and Home Office requirements, and may be subject to some form of licence application. There are thousands of companies operating within the private security industry, as well as in-house operations, which I hope will eventually be incorporated into the legislation. The problem that the SIA will face is not a lack of money. I expect the authority to be awash with money; it will not know what to do with it. The more people who are brought within the regulatory framework, the easier it will be to cover the costs. The authority should not make a profit and the money should be handed back to the Home Office, or the fee structure should be changed. I honestly do not anticipate even remotely the kind of problem to which the hon. Gentleman referred.
As I said earlier, we are all obsessed with the police. If a policeman blows his nose without using his handkerchief, some little old lady will report him. No operation at any police station escapes being subject to persistent, continuous and often erroneous comments by hon. Members, especially as elections approach. There is ample opportunity to complain about the police, but I defy anyone to tell me where one would go to make a complaint against the private security industry.
The industry is enormous, raises vast amounts of revenue and is of great benefit to the economy in terms of export of equipment and personnel. It would be fatal to carry on the tradition of the previous Conservative Government and say, ``Let's wash our hand of this matter because it is not our problem.'' Let us consider all the police structures, all the committees and civil servants and people involved in complaints procedures. An enormous number of men and women, offices and equipment are engaged in directing and monitoring the police force. It would be folly beyond words to impose a minuscule structure to secure accountability and effectiveness in the private security industry and ensure that the number of crooks in the industry is kept to a minimum. A larger structure is required, although it should not be an out-of-touch, out-of-control bureaucracy. Sufficient resources should be devoted to the tasks to meet the many functions that will be imposed on the authority.

NET 4.0 adds a new set of API's called Parallel Extensions, to simplify the process of adding parallelism and concurrency to applications. This allows you to effectively utilize Multi-Core systems which are commonly available now days. Parallel Extensions are composed of PLINQ and Task Parallel Library (TPL). With .NET 4.0, we have been provided a new namespace 'System.Threading.Task' in comprising of TPL classes. This namespace defines classes for performing Parallel looping operations, asynchronous task operations etc. In this article, I have demonstrated how to use Parallel programming capabilities in WPF 4.0 for DataBinding and Data processing.
If you are new to Parallel Processing in .NET 4.0, check out the article series Parallel Tasks in .NET 4.0
Step 1: Open VS 2010 and create a new WPF 4.0 application. Name it as 'WPF40_Parallel_Procesing'.
Step 2: Open MainWindow.xaml and write the following markup in it:
The design of the window will be as shown below:
Step 3: Open MainWindow.xaml.cs and add the the Employee class to it:
Now add an EmployeeList class and a ProcessTax class as shown below
The Employee class defines Employee properties and the EmployeeList class defines the Employee collection. The ProcessTax class contains a method to calculate Tax applicable for each employee.
Step 4: In the MainWindow.xaml.xs class, define the following objects:
Step 5: In the window_loaded event, write the following code:
The above code demonstrates both the mechanism for processing EmployeeList. The first uses a standard 'for' loop. This loop process EmployeeList sequentially based upon the index. The issue in this approach is that unless the previous Employee is not processed, the processing on next will not occur. This increases the processing time.
In the second case, 'Parallel' class and its 'For' method is used. This processes the records in parallel and thus reduces the time required for processing the entire collection.
To learn more, read the article Parallel.For Method in .NET 4.0 vs the C# For Loop
Step 6: Run the application. The following result will be displayed:
Note the time taken in Parallel data processing is less (almost half). Since ours is just a sample application, the difference in processing will be not be very noticeable. However this approach is significant when you are processing tasks that take longer time.

I'm a wedding and portrait photographer living in Vancouver, BC with my husband Randy. I photographed my first wedding when I was only 17 years old - and I've photographed over 200 weddings since!

Our Love Story
I really love mini-destination weddings. (I call them mini if I can drive to them!) One year ago, I received a note from Sarah & Onur about shooting their engagement photos in Vancouver. I think I asked, "I'd love to! But where are you getting married?" and when I heard "Penticton!" I said, "I'm down for that, if you'll have me!"
I'm so glad I got to be a part of Sarah & Onur's fantastic day at Poplar Grove Winery on Saturday, September 9th. There's a beautiful vibe to wedding days where everyone has to travel to be there. Nobody can be distracted by work or home – it's all about the wedding day, for everyone! Personally, my Saturday morning started with breakfast with my husband overlooking Lake Okanagan with a cup of coffee as the rain came down. A perfect morning, which I think creatively inspired me for the day ahead. ;)
Around 2 o' clock in the afternoon, I arrived at Sarah & Onur's guesthouse for getting ready photos! It was a hilarious shuffle between the two rooms, especially when we discovered the 'best light' was on the patio near some beautiful ivy. I photographed Onur getting ready, then banished him to the front of the house, so Sarah could come out, and vice versa. Haha!
Sarah & Onur's first look was probably one of my favourite moments ever at a wedding… I forgot how natural these two are in front of the camera. They have a pure love and joy about their relationship – and it's contagious. I couldn't stop smiling. Portraits at a nearby park to their venue were stunning, too. Could not believe how gorgeous the location was.
A heavy smoke had been over Penticton for nearly 6 weeks (or so the locals told me!) – and it remained all day Friday, the day before the wedding. Poplar Grove Winery has a phenomenal view and the smoke wasn't ideal – but Sarah & Onur were in good spirits. However, when the rain came on Saturday morning, it cleared away all the smoke! Leaving beautiful overcast light and a clear view of the lake and mountains. Cannot believe our good fortune.
One of my favourite moments of the day was when Sarah & Onur walked down towards their ceremony together, hand in hand. At that very moment, the skies opened up and a bright, bright sunshine appeared. Within a few minutes, it went back to overcast and remained that way for the rest of the day. It was a surreal moment!
Sarah & Onur's reception included plenty of time for guests to mingle, enjoy amazing appetizers, some bubbly (which Onur insisted I have one glass of! So kind… it was amazing) — and a five-course meal, each course with it's own wine pairing. This wedding was truly a dream. I had a few different groups of people during cocktail hour stop me, and I smiled and said, "Do you want a photo?" Some of them, said, "Sure! But mainly we just wanted to talk to you!" Sarah & Onur's guests were soooo kind, so diverse (there were 15 languages represented in 40 guests!) and amazing conversationalists. Enjoy the photos and I hope my words here have added something even more to the 'feel' of the day as you look through. :)

Priest blows over alcohol limit
SAINT Patrick's South Grafton parish priest, Father Peter Jones, earned himself the dubious honour of returning one of the highest blood alcohol readings ever recorded in NSW by police.
An off-the-chart +.5 roadside reading was followed by registering .341, almost seven times the legal limit, on Wednesday when the 58-year-old Catholic priest was pulled over on the Pacific Highway at Maclean.
A concerned motorist allegedly saw the white Toyota Camry being driven by Fr Jones crossing lanes at Harwood and reported the incident to police.
Police caught up with Fr Jones as he turned off the highway onto Yamba Rd and pulled him over for a roadside breath test.
The hand-held breathalyser used by police was unable to accurately measure Fr Jones' blood-alcohol content, only indicating it was more than .5 - ten times the legal limit.
Fr Jones was then taken by police to Maclean police station where he recorded the high-range blood-alcohol reading of .341.
Police immediately cancelled Fr Jones' driver's licence and issued him with a court attendance notice ordering him to appear in Maclean Local Court on December 13.
A senior police source told the Sydney Daily Telegraph newspaper Fr Jones' reading was one of the highest recorded in recent times in NSW.
Fr Jones was bailed by police into the custody of St Mary's Grafton parish priest Fr Rex Hackett due to his level of intoxication.
The Telegraph reported Fr Jones' car, which is owned by the Catholic Church, was confiscated by police and Fr Hackett transported his colleague home.
Drug and Alcohol educator Paul Dillon told the Telegraph Fr Jones' reading could not have been reached by drinking beer, but would have required sustained prolonged drinking of hard liquor.
"Generally speaking it would be very hard to imagine someone could get to a level about 0.3 with beer, which is between three to five per cent alcohol," he told the Telegraph.
"You really would be looking at significant amounts of spirits, which are 35 to 50 per cent alcohol - over a period of time."
Two standard drinks in an hour can see a man reach the legal limit for drivers of .05, with women only needing one standard drink.

Backless Folding Chairs
Find These Backless Metal Chairs at GAIAM
While metal folding chairs are a staple in most well-equipped Yoga studios, they're not so common in the homes of Yoga enthusiasts. If more people understood how useful a backless metal chair could be in their practice, however, they'd certainly have one, right alongside their bolsters, blocks and strap. Chairs offer support when you need it most - while learning a backbend, for example, or for a refreshing version of Plow Pose (you rest your legs on the seat and let your feet stick out through the back). The metal folding chairs that you find at the studios are better than just grabbing any old chair for a number of reasons. Because they are backless, it's easier for you to come in and out of poses (of course, you can always take an ordinary metal chair and remove the back, but you risk bending it, which will cause it to lose stability). They're also just the right size for most people to grab onto when doing a twist or performing a modified version of Standing Forward Bend or Downward Facing Dog. A backless chair and a strap are also great tools for learning more advanced poses such as the One-Legged King Pigeon Pose (Eka Pada Rajakapotasana) - although it's best if you leave these more complicated activities in the hands of an instructor. Do ask your teacher for some simple ways to use the chair at home - you'll be pleasantly surprised at how much it can enhance your practice.

I have to admit that I very nearly didn't go (I had a very worrying nightmare the night before where I was standing in front of everyone in my undies!) as I was a little apprehensive of meeting so many people but I am glad I did. I met so many lovely, lovely people and had such a fantastic time.
I wore my brand new Christine Haynes Emery Dress (I have just noticed she has 30% off her shop at the moment) which I finished at about 11.00pm the night before. I was in good company though, a lot of people had been finishing outfits at the last minute too.
The fabric for this dress came from a warehouse in Switzerland where my parents live. They brought it back for me last year and I had been wondering what to do with it, I didn't initially think I would make myself a dress but now I have I love it!
In terms of fit, I more or less sewed up a straight size 10 with a couple of modifications (narrowing the neckline and shoulders slightly) and I am really happy with it. I didn't have any issues with sewing it at all, and the instructions were perfect. I will definitely make another.
After meeting at the V&A we went on to Goldhawk Road to go fabric shopping. I didn't have anything particular in mind that I needed before going, other than some vague feelings about making children's summer clothes and in retrospect I am pleased I didn't have a plan. I think if I had been looking for something in particular I may have been too overwhelmed to buy anything. As it is I did go slightly over budget but not by a lot, and I am glad that I did because I am over the moon with my haul:
The green spot is a jersey which I got for £3 per metre and is destined to become a skater dress and possibly some shorts for Élodie. The most expensive was the eyelet cotton at £8 per metre but the yellow is such a vibrant colour that I had to buy it. I don't have any definite plans for any of it at the moment but I think a few bits may end up as things from Tilly and the Buttons book "Love at First Stitch".
The confetti spot fabric I bought 2 metres of and Marilla and I have agreed that we will have 1 metre each and see what we come up with. It is (so Marilla assures me!) a silk/cotton blend and very light.
So, I had so much fun yesterday and I am really glad I went. I really wish I took more photos but I think I spent so much time staring and beautiful outfits that I forgot! Now to sew up some summer clothes for Élodie.

It has been a very busy for us this year. There has been a number of new 'additions' to our stable including the culmination of a few major long term projects along the way, leaving the collection in a very healthy and robust state for 2013.
In a similar vein as may peoples years, 21012 had good times and challenging periods.
The military collectable scene continues to grow as does our enthusiasm, which wasn't dampened by the poor weather, astronomical rise on fuel and consumable prices in 2012!
The growth of the military scene has pushed the costs on items ranging from complete vehicles to the 'once cheap and plentiful' spares to new heights. Once the military scene was a 'cheaper option' to collectors where kit and vehicles were literally sold for scrap prices, but now they have reached all- time highs.
To the right are some interesting pictures of AML's in action and with some rare early pictures of a prototype version in late 50's. The final colour pictures are of the recently restored AML refurbished by me this year.

Lindsay Lohan Is Making A Mockery Of Her Felony & Should Be Laying Low Says Expert!
Lindsay might be getting a few laughs but she'll be giggling all the way to jail if she's not careful!
Lindsay Lohan is making all the wrong moves! Whether it's her new felony grand theft charge for allegedly stealing at $2,500 necklace or her stints in and out of rehab, Lindsay, 24, just doesn't seem to get it. The fallen starlet even went so far as to appear on Jimmy Kimmel Live show on Feb. 27, to make light of her sticky fingers. HollywoodLife.com spoke with Dr. Jenn Berman, host of "The Love and Sex Show with Dr. Jenn", to discuss Lindsay's poor choices.
"This woman has not yet reached rock bottom. In order to get well, you have to hit an all time low when you realize how serious the wreckage you've created is and you take your recovery very seriously," Dr. Jenn says. "And it's just not looking like she's there. She doesn't take what's happening very seriously and it makes recovery and getting well a whole lot more difficult."
So what should Lindsay be doing?
"If she wants to get well," Dr. Jenn says. "She needs to lay low and focus on getting well, instead of making fun of the things that have happened to her and other people."

Whether you have caught a tuna fish yourself or you have just purchased one from the fish counter at the store, the next question is how to slice it up for preparation. Luckily, cutting it into steaks is much easier than it might appear. Cutting tuna yourself rather than buying pre-cut steaks will save you money, while guaranteeing the steaks are cut exactly how you would like.
Place your tuna fish on the cutting board, on one of its flat sides. While tuna are considered to be round fish (not flat fish), they are still flatter on their sides than they are on their tops and bottoms.
Remove the fins and tail, if not already removed. Slide the tip of your fillet knife underneath each fin to ease it off the tuna. Cut carefully so you do not harm the surrounding skin on the fish. Even if you do not want to eat the skin, it will help to hold the steaks together as you cut them. So try not to damage or discard the skin until later in the process.
Consider how many servings you want from the tuna. Consider the overall size of the tuna, and visually divide it up into approximate two-inch sections.
Make the first cut with your chef's knife, easing the tip in and slicing downward, pushing the knife forward and downward from its base. Do not hold it too tightly, and do not make a sawing motion or you will tear the meat. Clean, precise, decisive cutting is what is needed to create well-defined tuna steaks.
Cut the remainder of the tuna fish into steaks. Remove any pin bones with your needle-nose pliers. When possible, pull the pin bones out with the grain of the fish, so as not to disturb the surrounding part of the fish.
Make sure your knives are really sharp before attempting to cut your tuna into steaks. The fins will be more difficult to remove if the fillet knife is not sharp, and if neither knife is sharp, clean cuts will be next to impossible. If you want your steaks to look clean, professional, and beautiful, sharpen your knives.
If your tuna had the head and tail on when you brought it home, you can save those and any bones you find to make homemade fish stock later. If you do not want to use your fish stock immediately, it freezes very well for later use.

Nicole Kidman and Jimmy Fallon Recall Their Failed Blind Date and It's Cute/Awkward As Hell
Do not woo Nicole Kidman with grunts and video games.
Nicole Kidman dropped by The Tonight Show to promote Paddington (out January 16), but instead she recalled a gem of a story involving Jimmy Fallon, sweat pants, video games, and Brie. Yes, you read all of that right, and hopefully you know what Brie is, unlike Fallon. Years ago, Fallon's friend Rick set the two up on what sounds like the worst celebrity blind date ever. What ensues after the story is all as wonderful and hilarious as it is awkward. (Fun mini-game to play: See if you can count how many times Jimmy slaps his desk. Better mini-game to play: See if you can count how many times Kidman and Fallon can't hold eye contact.)

The last Cincinnati Bengals coach to win a playoff game was then quickly replaced for not allowing women reporters to go in a locker room of naked men. Two decades later, I told that coach he should run for governor of South Carolina, and I believed he was right to offer to bring players out to female reporters while still encouraging modesty and remembering many of those players had wives at home – but USA Today and the Bengals did not agree.
Obviously, you need to ensure that women have access to any interview they need, but surely that can be accomplished without losing sensitivity about privacy that has now been so common in TSA lines and elsewhere.
In 1988, Sam Wyche stood up to the NFL to revolutionize the game with the first all-out no huddle offense to get the Bengals to the Superbowl. When the NFL told him he could not run the no huddle in the playoffs, he told them to let the TV network know they would be throwing a flag after every Bengals offensive play. His offense, led by Boomer Esiason, ran the no huddle all the way to the Superbowl that year.
In 1990, the Bengals lost an October game to the Seattle Seahawks and Wyche told USA Today reporter Denice Tom he was not allowing females in the locker room that included many married men. While I believe South Carolina GOP primary voters would have supported Wyche for governor years later, he was not going to win a PR war with USA Today on the value of modesty and the protection of marriage. He was lambasted for not allowing equal access and fined $30,000 by the NFL. The Bengals let him finish out the season, including the last playoff win in Bengals history in a 41-14 win over the Houston Oilers.
In 1991, the Bengals started the post-Wyche era with their first of three 3-13 seasons in four years, and they have still not won a playoff game since.
Last year the post-Wyche/no-playoff win streak reached 21 years despite going up against the Houston Texans third-string quarterback. Today, the Bengals get a second consecutive chance to go into Houston to end the streak, playing against a Texans team that has looked very beatable the last month of the season and may be vulnerable because the team was on its way to securing home field advantage throughout the playoffs. Three weeks ago, it was improbable Houston would be playing in a first-round playoff game.
Playoff Preview
If Michael Vick had not been convicted for his dog fighting activities, his Atlanta Falcons backup may never have left Atlanta for Houston.
Matt Schaub has thrown often to the best target on the planet – Andre Johnson (112 receptions for 1598 yards), so the Bengals need to rush Schaub to continue to get sacks like they did all year (3rd most sacks in the league at 51). Arian Foster, who is returning from an irregular heartbeat (league best 15 touchdowns on 1424 yards), will need to keep the pass rush honest to Schaub has time to find Johnson.
On the other side of the top matchup, Andy Dalton has to try to forget his awful outing last year in Houston when JJ Watt turned the first of his three interceptions into a touchdown return and the Bengals never got back in the game. BenJarvus Green-Ellis looks to be back at 100% for the game (6 TDs for 1094 yards). Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green is one of the most dynamic offensive players in the league and Dalton's go-to target.
Cincinnati is the 2nd hottest team playing this weekend, with a Sagarin rating in the 2nd half behind only Seattle. It is only 2 points better than the Texans, so a 3-point home field advantage would seem to give the Texans a 1-point edge.
However, if you break out just the Texans' last four games of the season they are a much colder team than Cincinnati. In addition, Cincinnati has been even better on the road than at home, with a 6-2 mark that matches the Texans 6-2 home mark.
After looking like a potential Superbowl winner for much of the season, the Texans may just need one playoff game to get back to midseason form, but I suspect the Bengals may finally be ready to pull one out.
Prediction: Cincinnati 20, Houston 19

Peter Jackson's fantasy blockbuster The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey marched into the new year (13) as Britain's top film after shining at the box office on the final weekend of 2012.
The Lord of the Rings prequel held onto the number one spot for the third consecutive weekend after bringing in takings of $11 million.
The film saw off competition from Ang Lee's acclaimed adaptation of Yann Martel's novel Life of Pi, which scored second place with $6.7 million, ahead of Tom Cruise's latest blockbuster Jack Reacher, which entered the box office chart in third place after garnering just $5.8 million in its opening weekend.
The top five is rounded out by Pitch Perfect and Parental Guidance, which both took in the region of $2.08 million.
Bond blockbuster Skyfall remains in the chart at number seven after breaking records by becoming the first ever 007 movie to shatter the $1 billion mark at the global box office.

Ronaldo's son unimpressed with Brazilian Grand Prix 2011
Brazilian legend Ronaldo was left red-faced after his son Alex admitted his antipathy for Formula 1, during a live TV interview at the Sao Paulo GP.
The former World Player of the Year was being quizzed in the VIP area of the Brazilian GP by BBC presenter Jake Humphrey and ex-F1 team boss Eddie Jordan , when the little nipper blurted out his frustration with the whole affair.
Almost immediately after his, er herm,robust-lookingdad had billed him as the next big thing in Brazilian football, Alex said: âCan we just go home now?â
Humphrey, quickly sensing âTV goldâ, then asked Alex if he was excited about the upcoming race, to which the youngster simply replied: âNo.âKids eh?
Fortunately, Ronaldo was in better spirits and happily chatted to the commentators, expressing his own personal love of F1.
He then politely made an exit to take his seat for the end of season race, which was eventually won my Red Bullâs Mark Webber.
