As Brent Baker noted, Thursday marked the end of Bob Schieffer's reign as anchor of the CBS "Evening News." And like the "Evening News," the Friday "Early Show"played Katie Couric's tribute video to Mr. Schieffer. After morning viewers watched the video, "Early Show" co-host Harry Smith sat down with Mr. Schieffer to discuss the future. Smith began this morning's Schieffer tribute by taking a shot at the "Evening News" former anchor, Dan Rather:
"When Bob Schieffer stepped down as anchor fo the CBS "Evening News" on Thursday, he left the place in a lot better shape than he found it..."
Following the tribute video, Mr. Schieffer appeared on the "Early Show" to talk with Harry Smith about what the future holds. Although Mr. Schieffer will no longer anchor the "Evening News" broadcast, this does not mean he is leaving CBS, and in fact Schieffer will appear weekly on the "Early Show" to offer commentary and will also offer commentary on the "Evening News."
Harry Smith: "Let me fast forward a little bit and say that starting very soon, every Wednesday you'll be coming along and we'll get a chance to chat with you about politics in Washington and everything else. You're not quitting your day job."
Bob Schieffer: " No, I'm not. And I'll, I'm going to do a thing for you all on Wednesday mornings. I'm going to do a written commentary on the 'Evening News' once a week, and then I'll be doing analysis as the news warrants..."
Yet in addition to Mr. Schieffers' "day job," Harry Smith also noted other enterprises Schieffer has undertaken recently:
"Now I read in the papers this week that you've been writing songs and you've been writing poetry, when do we, or do you want us to do like a concert on the plaza for you when your album comes out?"
Schieffer laughed, and joked that the concert on the plaza was a good idea, and that he was spending his time now preparing for the Grammys, but on a serious note he added that one of the songs he wrote aired on the Baltimore radio station WBAL.
"Yeah, that would be very good. I mean, right now, I'm trying to think about what to wear to the Grammys, and I'm trying to work my way through that. I love to write songs, and I've got a partner Jean Brackman who actually can sing and we've put together two or three things now. We've got them on demo, as it were. One of them yesterday morning aired on WBAL in Baltimore. So, I can say I'm a published songwriter."
At the end of the interview, Smith presented Schieffer with a new Stetson hat as a gift from those at the "Early Show, " and the segments on Schieffer painted a picture of a man who is well liked and admired by his colleagues at CBS. However, a Nexis search discovered that when Dan Rather stepped down in March 2005, the "Early Show" ran only a taped tribute about Rather in the final segment of the program. There was no interview with Dan Rather to talk about the future and no live gift giving. This maybe because, as Smith noted at the top of his segment, that Rather didn't leave the news room or the reputation of CBS in very good shape.

While many people will consider work or education as the key
consideration they need to make when it comes to time to change
their location, there will be a great number of people who also
want to take the chance to just go somewhere which will always give
them something to do and not leave them feeling bored.
Such a location can be found in Essex when people are looking for
property for sale in Southend-on-Sea. The large town is located
on the Essex coast and is some 40 miles outside of London, which
makes it close enough for those who want to visit, but far enough
away to miss out on the likes of high prices and city centre
However, the biggest attraction that can be found by those who are
going to live in Southend-on-Sea will be the myriad of activities
which can be found in the town. One of these aspects is the fact
that Southend is home to the longest leisure pier in the world,
which will give young professional couples a great place to walk
together and enjoy the outside.
What is most attractive about the town though is its plentiful
annual occurrences. These include the likes of the Southend
Carnival on the Golden Mile, which is highlighted by the
illuminations and takes place every August.
It also plays host to the Southend-on-Sea Film Festival every year,
showing a mixture of local, independent and big name films, and the
Leigh Folk Festival, which allows people to enjoy some traditional
English music by the seaside in an idyllic location.
Other highlights of the town include its excellent transport links.
Being so close to London, it is served well by rail services taking
commuters or occasional visitors into the capital, as well as being
the location of London Southend Airport.
For those travelling more locally, there are bus services in
operation which will allow people to travel easily and consistently
around Essex.

Despite the great number of Greeks in the restaurant business, finding a Greek restaurant on the Gold Coast these past years has not been an easy task. In the mid-`70s, there was the easy-to-recommend Sparta in Coral Gables (where the equally commendable Pickford`s now graces the corner), and in Miami the original Zorba`s was deservedly popular, but both are memories.
Zorba`s in Hollywood provided more entertainment than exciting food, and that has been a typical development impeding the culinary reputation of Greek restaurants (and a few that pretend to be Middle Eastern as well). Some have succumbed to the temptation of installing a band in the corner and hiring a belly dancer while ignoring the kitchen or allowing it to be run by a third- rate cook with tired recipes.
And then along comes Ambrosia.
A platoon of Greeks have chased out the Italians at the former Marandola`s, invested a few thousand drachma -- and then some -- in a much-needed refurbishment, hired a staff that`s unusually concerned and proud of what it does, and found a kitchen crew that prepares the Greek classics in new, refreshing ways. The crew also handles the seafood and the standby of lamb in a highly competent, sometimes exciting manner.
Ambrosia, according to my dictionary, is anything exquisitely gratifying in taste or scent -- a definition the restaurant lives up to. I also add sight and sound. Yes, there is a bouzouki player and a piano and music is offered nightly. The music is a pleasant plus to the atmosphere, not a distraction to the food.
The design of this gift for the gods is restrained, with a few decorative Greek handicrafts on the walls and an art gallery of the works of Greek- Mexican painter Phina Barzilai everywhere. Her subjects, sensuous style and controlled use of color are in keeping with the orderly arrangement of the chairs and tables, the good maintenance and great sense of fun.

Caitlyn Jenner's I Am Cait Trailer: 'I'm the New Normal'
"How many people waste their entire life because they never deal with themselves?"
E! today premiered the first trailer for Caitlyn Jenner's new "docu-series," I Am Cait, which sees Jenner, formerly known as Bruce, adjusting to life as a woman for the first time. "Wouldn't it it be great to just be normal, to blend into society?" Jenner asks. "Put it this way — I'm the new normal."

While we have a couple years to wait until a feature-length Wonder Woman sequel, the powers behind the Amazonian princess are giving us a little something in the interim — and this time another wonderful woman will be in the limelight: Etta Candy. Diana Prince's comedic sidekick in the DC comic books, played onscreen by Lucy Davis, will be featured in a special epilogue that will be included on the upcoming home edition of the blockbuster film.
Warner Bros. teased the short, titled "Etta's Mission," in a press release today announcing the release of the Patty Jenkins film on digital platforms (Aug. 29) and Blu-ray/DVD (Sept. 19). According to Warners, "Etta Candy gets the boys back together for a secret mission that could impact humanity's future." Presumably, the "boys" are the surviving members of the team that accompanied Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot) behind enemy lines in WWI to thwart Ares, the god of war: sharpshooter Charlie (Ewan Bremmer), tracker extraordinaire Chief (Eugene Brave Rock), and master of disguise Sameer (Saïd Taghmaoui).
In addition to the epilogue, the home release will include several behind-the-scenes featurettes, extended scenes, and a blooper reel. Here's the complete list.

Edge HD is a Schmidt telescope designed to produce aberration-free images across a wide visual and photographic field of view. The optical system was designed to reduce more than just off-axis star coma, but also give an astrograph quality flat focal plane all the way to the edge of the field of view.
Many optical designs that advertise themselves as ""astrograph"" quality actually only produce pinpoint stars across a curved focal plane. While this may be acceptable for visual observing, stars will appear out of focus at the edge when used with a flat chip sensor of a digital camera. EdgeHD optic produce a focal plane more than three-time flatter than other competing coma-free designs. This guarantees you visibly sharp stars across some of the largest CCD chips available today.
Superior edge performance not only creates rounder, more pleasing stars but actually improves the resolution and limiting magnitude when compared to telescopes of equal aperture.

Massage Insurance Guidelines for Alabama
As one of the states that require a licensed massage therapist to carry professional liability insurance, in Alabama, it is important to know where to purchase your policy in order to protect yourself and your practice for an affordable price. Alabama state guidelines require that you purchase massage therapy liability protection against malpractice lawsuits and other types of claims. There are of course other policy coverage options, including general liability coverage, as well as coverage for damage of equipment, and rental damage coverage. Depending on the type of practice you run, it is important to consider all levels and compare rates to find a great policy.
When working towards becoming licensed, applicants will first have to complete the state-required minimum of 650 class hours with a licensed institution for their education. Upon completing the hours, applicants have to complete and pass the NCETMB and get personal liability ($1,000,000 limit) coverage, as prerequisites to becoming licensed in the state. Renewing your license is required every 2 years at a charge of $100. In some cities or counties, it is also a requirement that licensed therapists carry an additional license to practice in that locality. And, renewal of the license will also be required if it is required to practice in a specific city. Before applying in any area, it is a good idea to find out if there are any city, municipality, or other local requirements, in terms of licensing and renewal fees, as well as additional coverage requirements for insurance.
A policy with a $1,000,000 limit in personal liability is required for any licensed therapist to be able to practice in the state of Alabama. Due to the fact that there are several other coverage options with differing limits, it is a good idea to find out how much coverage is available for what cost in order to find the policy that will give you the most coverage for the cost.
Not only will having a professional massage therapist insurance policy protect your reputation as a professional LMT in Alabama, having liability insurance may protect you financially from a lawsuit that could otherwise bankrupt your massage practice.

Spotify May Not Get to the U.S. Before the End of the Year
The folks behind much-heralded Swedish music-streaming site Spotify promised the service would be available in the U.S. by the end of 2010, but negotiations with labels have stalled, and the goal may not be reached. Boo! Basically, the majors aren't happy with Spotify's setup of offering free unlimited streaming with ads as a way to entice users to paid unlimited streaming with no ads. Seeing as that's pretty much the whole point of Spotify, negotiations "have reverted back to square one." Can't wait for the David Fincher movie about this! [Billboard.biz]

Vacation days pile up as workers fear looking 'replaceable': Project Time Off
Americans used to be better at taking time to take off. During the 1980s and 1990s, U.S. workers burned through 20 days of vacation per year on average, depending on seniority. Currently, it's about 17 days. Still, more than half of American workers—around 52 percent—aren't even using all the vacation time they do have, according to Project: Time Off, an initiative of The U.S. Travel Association to track and research vacation trends.

Many Researchers Not Getting the Training They (and the Industry) Need
Market research is a knowledge-based industry, its key asset is people – software comes and goes, techniques evolve, but if the future of market research is to be secured, it will be on the strength of its people to add value, and importantly, to add value that non-researchers cannot. To ensure that value-added future, market research needs to develop its people, and a key part of that process in training, to build the competence of the people who make up the research industry. However, the Market Research Skills and Training Study 2018 Report report suggests that too little training is happening. The authors believe that if market research and the insights profession is to prosper in the upcoming world of big data, automation, and artificial intelligence, this must change, and the report outlines some of the key steps needed to achieve that. This report is based on a study conducted globally in April to June 2018, with 1108 market researchers and insight professionals, … [Read more...] about Many Researchers Not Getting the Training They (and the Industry) Need

F3: Breaking the Circle
Here's this week's F3, which is another music-based rather than genre story. I'm not happy with this one but I'm not going to have any time to rewrite it or write an alternative piece, and I'm determined to stick to publishing one story a week. Some of my thoughts in the comments – I wouldn't recommend reading those until you've read the story, of course.
Breaking the Circle
Hawkins feels uncomfortable about the Dictaphone hovering right in front of his face, but he's committed to the interview now. Besides, he reasons, at this point any publicity is good, even if it is just an interview in a local fanzine.
"We also have a blog," says the girl holding the Dictaphone, as if reading his mind. Hawkins nods and clears his throat, fidgeting with the beer bottle clasped between his hands.
"Start whenever you're ready," he says. The girl nods.
"To begin with," she says, enunciating her words clearly for the recording, "perhaps you could tell us a little about the band and yourself."
He holds back a sigh, wondering if he was wrong to hope for questions that were a little more penetrating than this.
"Malaise originally formed two years ago," he says, slipping into a practiced spiel. "Ed and I were second-year university kids, still enjoying a little freedom. Si and Al were working the same shitty jobs they are now and playing grindcore in Al's flat. We met at a show, got on, and formed the band. After a break while Ed and I studied and graduated we reformed and started taking things seriously. Since then we've self-published an EP and we have a single out next month from Satanikbatwingdeath, both of which we're currently playing in support of."
He pauses and swigs his beer, and adds "we're keeping the shows pretty local, though."
The interviewer smiles, and Hawkins instinctively smiles back, cracking his studiously stony demeanour. He realises he hasn't asked her name, despite knowing that she writes for a 'zine called Self Checkout. He shifts his gaze over her shoulder into the orange-tinged gloom of the club. There are only a few people hanging about, mostly in small groups, talking and laughing and sipping at nearly-full pints. Si and Al are sitting on the stage rolling cigarettes whilst Ed talks animatedly with the sound guy.
"The official biog, huh?" says the girl. Hawkins moves his attention back to her. She's still smiling and holding the little tape recorder.
"That's cool," she continues. "You must get asked that a lot. I'm sure you have quite a lot of stock answers."
"Yes," Hawkins says, stupidly, realising immediately that it was a rhetorical question. "Uh… you can strike that from the interview, yeah?"
She laughs and he smiles again, this time not trying to stifle it.
"Okay, let's hit you with a technical question. Is your decision to eschew effects a deliberate aesthetic choice, or is it just how things have turned out given your playing styles?"
"When we first formed we were determined to use an absolute minimum of effects," Hawkins replies. "We agreed with bands and musicians who thought they were a distraction. It was obviously pretty ironic that we put so much gain on Al's guitar, but for some reason distortion always gets a free pass. Anyway, later on we stopped being so militant about it, but by that point we'd found our sound, and there wasn't any need to change it."
"That Malaise sound is a good example of why ramping the gain on just one guitar gets a free pass," the girl says. "It's a sort of textural backdrop to the high-end clean sound you use."
"Yeah, that's it. Well put. Although that was accidental, originally. I just didn't have an amp with built-in distortion and like I said, we didn't use pedals."
"Cool. Okay, thanks Hawkins. Mind if I go for a more personal question?"
"Sure," says Hawkins. He feels relaxed now, and is even pleased that she evidently understands his band. He guesses retrospectively that the first question was fluff to serve as a generic introduction for readers.
"Your lyrics are very personal, although not in the confessional style that's in vogue at the moment. They're all written in the first person, and they're usually directed at an unnamed second party."
"Oh," says Hawkins. He takes another swig from his bottle, swallowing the last few dregs of room-temperature lager. "Well, it's a writing style, I suppose. Everyone has their own approach to songwriting. That's just the way I feel comfortable, addressing my songs to other people."
"But is it other people, or is it… another person?"
Hawkins isn't sure how to react: for a moment he freezes.
Of course the girl is right, but this is the first time anyone has noticed. Even Ed, a close friend for many years, never picked up on the way Hawkins's songs were all directed towards the same individual. The subject matter was always different, as was the tone and angle of approach, and Hawkins often wrote in an abstract or heavily metaphorical fashion, but all the same he should have guessed that someone would figure it out one day.
He still doesn't know what to say, so he coughs and looks at the ground, trying to think quickly.
"Oi, Hawkins!"
He looks up, saved. "Si?"
"Better wrap up mate. Time to sound-check."
Relieved, he looks back at the girl. "Sorry. It'll be a short interview, I guess. Maybe some other time."
"We could pick it up after the soundcheck?" she asks, hopefully, switching the Dictaphone off and slipping it into her jacket.
He shakes his head. "Sorry, we need to go grab food right after. Then the supports start."
"Shame," she says, evidently disappointed. "I wanted to hear your answer to my last question.
Hawkins smiles and slips away to the stage.
After the show he weaves the crowd and catches the interviewer's attention, drawing her away from a pair of friends at the bar.
"Good set," she says. "What did you want?"
"You're right," he tells her. "You figured it out. It's just one person."
She doesn't reply or pull out the dictaphone, just asks: "Why do you do it?"
"That's easy," he replies. "I'm doing it for the day I'm no longer doing it all for her."
She smiles at that, and her eyes glisten in the lights of the club. He smiles back, and asks her name.

When Ava received a letter in the mail she told her father it was about a contest she wanted to enter to win money. She planned to donate any money she won to her father's new project. Ava planned to enter and win the same competition that her mother had won before she'd married Ava's father. She remembered once Kiwi had told her that their mother had married their father too young. When Ava told their parents they laughed at the idea. The night before their tenth wedding anniversary their mother had made Ava and Ossie go to the Bigtree museum with her and made them promise they would wait until they were thirty to get married. Ava still didn't understand what her mother had meant.
Ava had decided that if she could win the contest...

EDISON — Plays-in-the-Park, located in Roosevelt Park in Edison, will produce "Damn Yankees" as the second show of the Summer 2012 season under the stars. "Damn Yankees" will open on July 11, and will run through July 21, with no show on Sunday, July 15. Go see "Shoeless Joe from Hannibal, MO" take the Washington Senators baseball team by storm.
"This is one of the most fun and enjoyable musicals produced for the stage," said Middlesex County Freeholder Stephen J. "Pete" Dalina, Chair of the Infrastructure Management Committee, which oversees the Office of Parks and Recreation. "I encourage families to come out to experience for themselves a show that has been delighting audiences for decades."
Plays-in-the-Park is a production of the Middlesex County Board of Chosen Freeholders.
This musical comedy was written by George Abbott and Douglass Wallop, with music and lyrics by Richard Adler and Jerry Ross. It was based on the Faust legend set in Washington D.C. in the 1950s, during which time the New York Yankees were the untouchable team in Major League Baseball. It tells the story of a diehard Washington Senators fan, Joe Boyd, and how he sells his soul to the devil, disguised as a character named Mr. Applegate, for the chance to go back in time and play on the Senators' team to help them try to beat the Yankees.
The original Broadway production opened on May 5, 1955 at the 46th Street Theatre. Directed by George Abbott, with musical numbers staged by the legendary Bob Fosse, and with a stellar cast including Ray Waltson, Stephen Douglass, and Gwen Verdon, this show took Broadway by storm. At the Tony Awards in 1956, Damn Yankees won Best Musical, Best Choreography, Best Conductor and Musical Director, Best Leading Actor, Best Leading Actress, and Best Featured Actor in a Musical. The production at Plays-in-the-Park is directed by Gina Lupi, choreographed by Randy Accardi, and musically directed by Warren Helms. The cast is full of "Heart," and with "A Little Brains, A Little Talent," they'll make the show one you won't forget!
"What a perfect musical to stage during the height of baseball season," said Freeholder Director Christopher D. Rafano. "Fans of America's favorite pastime will surely be able to relate to the feelings and themes explored in this timeless production."
Tickets can only be purchased the night of the performance and the Box Office opens at 5:30 p.m. each night. The cost is $7 for adults, $5 for seniors, and free for children 12 and under. Patrons must provide their own lawn chairs, and the height of the chair-back cannot exceed 40". All shows begin at 8:30 p.m., and there are no Sunday performances. Visit www.playsinthepark.com for more info about the box office or seating policy.
In the event of a cancellation due to weather, you can retain your ticket stub and use it to get into another show for free. Ticket stubs are valid for up to one year after the rained-out performance. When you return, just show your stub to the Box Office, and they will exchange your ticket for you.

AT&T might be gearing up to launch the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 alongside the Nokia Lumia 920 on October 21st.
According to BGR, the carrier will be releasing the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 on AT&T on October 21st. Apparently, it will also be releasing the Lumia 920 as well though we heard previously that Windows Phone 8, the software that's powering the Lumia 920, wouldn't be out until October 29th at the earliest.
The Galaxy Note 2 release date fits as Samsung said that it would be launching the Galaxy Note 2 in the U.S. later this year with some regions getting it in October. AT&T was the original carrier of the Galaxy Note so it's possible that it could be out in front of its competitors.
Read: Sprint Galaxy Note 2 Gets Closer to Launch.
It's also possible that other U.S. carriers will be getting the device around that time as well.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is also rumored to be coming to Sprint, T-Mobile, Verizon and U.S. Cellular as well with Sprint, Verizon and U.S. Cellular likely hosting it on their 4G LTE networks.
Release dates for those four variants have yet to leak out.
The AT&T Galaxy Note 2 release date rumor follows yesterday's news that the Sprint Galaxy Note 2 got a Wi-Fi certification meaning the device got closer to launch. The T-Mobile and Verizon variants have leaked out as well, but none have leaked out as extensively as the Sprint model.
Read: Sprint Galaxy Note 2 Rumors: 4G LTE, Quad-Core, Release Date.
The Sprint Galaxy Note 2 is rumored to include a quad-core Exynos processor along with 4G LTE and Android 4.1 Jelly Bean. The device is also supposed to feature most of the features of the international Galaxy Note 2 that launched back in August. This could mean that the other variants, including the one on AT&T, will feature 4G LTE and quad-core power.
Samsung did not confirm that to be the case in August so at this point its mere speculation.
Hopefully, October is the release date for the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 as interest in the United States is extremely high.
As for the Lumia 920, we previously heard that November 2nd was AT&T's target date for the Windows Phone 8 device though it looks like the carrier may have moved those plans up.
We should know more as we get closer to launch.

We begin a Winter/Spring series of messages on the Ten Commandments, starting with – you guessed it – the first commandment.
"I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. You shall have no other gods before me."
The first commandment, Exodus 20:2-3
"If God is God, and we claim to know him, then why the need for a command to put no other gods before him?"
"Is there anyone around who can explain God? Anyone smart enough to tell him what to do? Anyone who has done him such a huge favor that God has to ask his advice? Everything comes from him; Everything happens through him; Everything ends up in him. Always glory! Always praise! Yes. Yes. Yes."
Apostle Paul, Romans 11:36
"Let me know myself, let me know thee,"
St. Augustine
"Come, let's shout praises to GOD, raise the roof for the Rock who saved us! Let's march into his presence singing praises, lifting the rafters with our hymns! And why? Because GOD is the best, High King over all the gods… on your knees before God, who made us!... Drop everything and listen, listen as he speaks… 'Can't they keep their minds on God for five minutes?
Excerpts from Psalm 95, MSG
"Should we ever settle for anything less than the brightest vision of who God is, who we are, and what constitutes life now and everlasting?"
Singer and writer, Charlie Peacock
"Human beings ought to be in awe of God at least as much as a first year violin student is in awe of Itzhak Perlman"
Neal Plantinga, page 16, Engaging God's World
"Live in me. Make your home in me just as I do in you…"
Jesus in John 15:4, MSG

Hi there and and thank you all for welcoming me. I hope to get to know all of you as we progress through our good times together. I'm Billy and I'm an empath. I feel other people's emotions. When the tension gets tough I leave the room until the tension goes down then I start to feel better. After all, we would all like to feel better. I feel better when I talk about my feelings. That way there would be no need for unresolved issues.

Nowadays it seems that the internet is flooded with articles about travelling. What is the best way to travel, pro and cons of travelling, lessons learned while travelling. However this might not be the case. I am following dozens of websites and blogs related to travel, so this clearly has an impact on the sorts of articles I am seeing every day.
I travel. I do not often write about it, I do not always post pictures of what I see. This is by all means a personal reflection of certain things I noticed about myself and it is all due to travelling. I do not want to say that all my adventures changed me profoundly, because I don't think they did. I had a very good idea of who I was long before I started country hopping, and that, at its core, it never changed. Nevertheless, travelling made some qualities, and equally some flaws surface more often.
I have read a bunch of articles about how the best way to travel is alone, or with a friend, or with a partner, or backpacking or luxury travelling. I have travelled alone, with my travel soulmate who is currently stuck in Sydney, with a partner, in a group. I went backpacking. I hitchhiked, I slept in hotels, hostels, motels, air bnbs. I also slept on beaches and I camped. I worked abroad and I partied. Do not get offended but I do not think there is a perfect way to travel, if you want to travel you will do it anyhow, and what is comfortable for you is the perfect way to travel.
So, all this travelling I have been doing has taught me that:
- Where I am from, it does not matter, and I wish people would ask that less frequently. I am a Romanian living in England, and that is my home. There are certain parts of me which are truly English, and I would argue, certain parts do not belong to any country, Romania or England, but are purely me. Travelling made me realize the world is more diverse than we think. I have met a girl who was half Portuguese, half New Zealander, born in Hong Kong, living in Australia. New Zealand born, raised in Australia, living in America, Indian who lives in America, Syrian who lives in France. Individuals tend to say more than one country when asked 'where are you from?' because people might have the wrong impression about the country of origin or they simply identify with more than one culture.
- Travelling teaches you to be more open. Yes it does. But I was open before I started travelling. However, it taught me how to be more reserved, especially in my private life. I learned that it is ok not to share everything, and it is more than fine to be the odd one at the hostel from time to time, if you simply want some alone time.
- Travelling taught me to eat things I simply do not like. I am not a fussy eater, and I have never been, however there are certain things I would rather die before I would buy or cook (maybe that's an exaggeration, but you know what I mean). Travelling erased that idea; you eat what you are being offered; even more so when the people you meet go through the trouble of cooking for you (my advice would be that if you are vegetarian, vegan or have any allergies, you should let people know in advance).
- My story might be very good, but someone else's story might be great. Meeting people is a great way to discover different places and get to know different cultures. Once you start travelling you are going to have amazing stories and people will be interested in your experiences and they will be impressed with your adventures but you will also meet individuals who will make you think that even though your story is great, their story is better. And they will feel the same. and you will accept that , because you will learn that there are not two people on this planet who travel the same, and every story you hear is as good as the previous one.
- I learned I am very easily entertained and I am almost never bored. I do not need much, actually I would even dare to say, that providing everything is ok, I do not need anything to just be happy.
- Finally I learned that even though a good amount of people I met have a good reason why they travel, I do not have one, and that is more than fine. There are people who travel in search for spirituality, or in search of something they are missing, or in search of love, or they simply travel because of work, money and a million of other reasons, however I just travel, and I don't know how to answer this question. I travel, and if I will ever find the reason why I do (if there actually is one) I will know then, but until that time comes I shall continue country hopping.

Best known as a music-identification application, Shazam claims it is currently in the works to add another functionality to let users tag any TV show on any channel to get information like who's acting on the screen, what music is playing, and more. The company also boasts of its now 250 million users, putting the app on the top ten most downloaded application in the planet since it was released in 2008. Chief Revenue Officer Doug Garland said: "Each week we get more than two million users. People think it's magical. But the reason people come back is because there's an amazing degree of utility." Advertisements and shows have been compatible with Shazam via partnerships like the London Olympics and Super Bowl commercials although the company is currently working with almost all show on 160 channels in the United States. It has also tapped other popular shows like American Idol as partners to further promote the popularity of the app. Currently, users can tag music and select TV shows and ads by tapping a button that shows up when the app is launched. The much richer app will now allow the user to tag anything being showed on the TV, display music from the show, give details from IMDB about the cast, trivia, gossips, and the latest tweets about it. A button will also pop-up so a user can pre-load a tweet with the correct hashtag for the current show being displayed. Tagging sporting events will show stats and box score inside the app. "We noticed that 54 percent of users were using Shazam at least once a week to tag things on TV… so we thought that there's a lot more we can do with this." according to Garland. "Interactive TV has been roadkill thus far on the information superhighway." The company has already entered into deals with over 140 brands to incorporate Shazam inside ads, but it also hopes to integrate specific TV shows. Shazam has reportedly worked on the recent "Shazam for TV" feature for almost over eight months. It has already tallied over $300 million in sales of digital goods, which is expected to increase further once users will have the opportunity to tag bigger compilation of content. The phenomenal new features of Shazam and its mind-boggling 250 million users is transforming itself from a purely music-tagging app into a famous TV app.

In most organizations, IT personnel are "accounting-challenged." For example, most of them are unaware of (or don't care about) the differences between regular and capitalized expenses, or between leasing and buying equipment. In a case involving a major ERP investment, I was surprised to encounter a few blank stares when I mentioned "sunk costs" (a past outlay or loss that cannot be altered by current or future actions); and "opportunity costs" (the difference between the return on one investment and the return on an alternative). Basic financial knowledge in the IT community is lacking.
Charging or Billing
A major oil company could not provide even a rough estimate of how much a particular ERP seat was costing in the "sandbox" environment where ERP specialists were practicing their skills. Any such expenses and other expenses related to Research & Development disappeared under a few major accounts and were flushed into the profit and loss statement. What can you do to improve the Financial Management Process?
Typical maturity assessment tools on the U.S. market provide a single maturity number for the Financial Management process. The better tools provide you with more detail and give multiple indicators relating to several aspects of your financial control (e.g. Asset Management, Project Performance, Bidding and Contracts, Cost Control, etc). A comprehensive maturity assessment provides a good idea where you are now and the basis of a roadmap where you need to go. 2. Upgrade Configuration and Capacity Management processes
3. Think 'Service' instead of 'Function'
The better you understand the budgets and costs for your IT services (in contrast to the functions), the better you can judge the figures and the desirability of those services. This approach also provides the added benefit of an appropriate comparison basis when outsourcing opportunities are evaluated.

In-situ tube burst testing and high-temperature deformation behavior of candidate materials for accident tolerant fuel cladding
Here, one of the most essential properties of accident tolerant fuel (ATF) for maintaining structural integrity during a loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) is high resistance of the cladding to plastic deformation and burst failure, since the deformation and burst behavior governs the cooling efficiency of flow channels and the process of fission product release. To simulate and evaluate the deformation and burst process of thin-walled cladding, an in-situ testing and evaluation method has been developed on the basis of visual imaging and image analysis techniques. The method uses a specialized optics system consisting of a high-resolution video camera, a light filtering unit, and monochromatic light sources. The in-situ testing is performed using a 50 mm long pressurized thin-walled tubular specimen set in a programmable furnace. As the first application, ten (10) candidate cladding materials for ATF, i.e., five FeCrAl alloys and five nanostructured steels, were tested using the newly developed method, and the time-dependent images were analyzed to produce detailed deformation and burst data such as true hoop stress, strain (creep) rate, and failure stress. Relatively soft FeCrAl alloys deformed and burst below 800 °C, while negligible strain rates were measured for higher strength alloys.

Mitt Romney suggested Monday that Israelis enjoy a better standard of living than neighboring Palestinians do because they have a superior culture and enjoy the "hand of providence." The remarks set off an outcry from Palestinians, one of whom accused Romney of racism.
The brouhaha was the latest turmoil to rock the Republican presidential candidate's foreign trek, including a controversy in London on the eve of the Olympics and another in Jerusalem.
In the latest, Romney told about 40 donors at a fundraising event in Jerusalem why he thought Israel's economy is much stronger than that in territories controlled by the Palestinian Authority. Noting that Israel enjoys the same natural resources – or lack of them – as its neighbors, he said there must be another reason that Israel stood out.
"If you could learn anything from the economic history of the world, it's this: Culture makes all the difference," he said, citing the work of historian David Landes, the author of the book "The Wealth and Poverty of Nations."
"As I come here and I look out over this city and consider the accomplishments of the people of this nation, I recognize the power of at least culture and a few other things," Romney added. "One, I recognize the hand of providence in selecting this place."
He told how Jews left Egypt, trusting in God to help them survive in the promised land.
"This is a people that has long recognized the purpose in this place and in their lives that is greater than themselves and their own particular interests, but a purpose of accomplishment and caring and building and serving. There's also something very unusual about the people of this place."
Saeb Erekat, a senior aide to Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, criticized Romney's remarks, according to the Associated Press.
"It is a racist statement, and this man doesn't realize that the Palestinian economy cannot reach its potential because there is an Israeli occupation," Erekat told the AP. "It seems to me this man lacks information, knowledge, vision and understanding of this region and its people. . . . He also lacks knowledge about the Israelis themselves. I have not heard any Israeli official speak about cultural superiority."
At the White House, Deputy Press Secretary Josh Earnest said the remarks seemed to leave people "scratching their heads a little bit," adding that "one of the challenges of being an actor on the international stage, particularly when you're traveling to such a sensitive part of the world, is that your comments are very closely scrutinized, for meaning, for nuance, for motivation."
Earnest refused to say what Obama thinks is a cause of the economic disparity between Israelis and Palestinians, saying only that it's the president's view that "certainly economic issues are among the wide range of issues" that need to be settled through negotiations between the parties.
Romney, who's to conclude his six-day trip Tuesday with a speech in Warsaw, Poland, has been dogged by controversy from the start. In London, he questioned Great Britain's preparation for the Summer Olympic Games and drew a rebuke from Prime Minister David Cameron. In Jerusalem, he said Sunday in a widely noted speech that the city was the capital of Israel, a sensitive point in peace negotiations.
The United States does not recognize Jerusalem as the capital, and the U.S. Embassy is in Tel Aviv. Palestinians say East Jerusalem will be the capital of their state.
Earnest said Romney's stance put him at odds with former Democratic and Republican presidents, including Ronald Reagan. "It's the view of this administration that the capital is something that should be determined in final status negotiations between the parties," Earnest said.
However, when Obama first ran for president as a senator, he said much the same as Romney. "Jerusalem will remain the capital of Israel, and it must remain undivided," Obama said in June 2008.
The General Delegation of the Palestine Liberation Organization to the United States condemned Romney's remarks on Jerusalem, saying they were "not only in violation of international law and international resolutions, but they also run against a long-standing U.S. policy of not changing the status of Jerusalem until it is settled by both Palestinians and Israelis. By taking this stance, Governor Romney is jeopardizing U.S. national interests and is threatening regional stability."

Secular and Jewish? You're in good company ...
Jewish community and Jewish leadership for secular Jews. IISHJ On Campus inspires and connects secular Jewish students to each other and to the larger secular Jewish community. Secular Humanistic Judaism provides opportunities for students who don't believe in God to connect with Jewish culture and ritual in ways that don't force them to compromise on their intellect and common sense. Let us bring this exciting conversation about what Judaism means to us -- a group of passionate, culturally Jewish rabbis, ritual leaders and teachers-- to your campus.
We'd love to send a representative to speak at your campus in 2016-2017 about the principles and practice of Secular Humanistic Judaism, and to share secular rabbinic leadership opportunities with interested students.

Bob Cole, J. Rosamond Johnson, and James Weldon Johnson
Bob Cole was born in Athens, Georgia, on July 1, 1868. His earliest published songs were issued in 1893, and one of his earliest stage jobs was with Sam T. Jack's Creole Show, the first African-American show to break from the strict minstrel tradition of all male performers. Cole also performed as an actor and directed the All Star Stock Company at Worth's Museum in New York, the first such company organized by African-Americans.
When he was 27 years old and performing with Black Patti's Troubadours, Cole was engaged by the Troubadours' producers to write an entire show with Billy Johnson, his first collaborator. After a dispute over ownership of his music, Cole and Johnson left to organize Cole's own company. Elaborating on his early short sketches, he created a full-length musical which was performed off-Broadway in New York's Third Avenue Theater during the 1898-99 season. A Trip To Coontown was the first musical entirely written, performed, produced, and owned by African-Americans. Unlike other black entertainments of the time, Cole's production had a book and lyrics that could sustain a dramatic subplot. After the show closed, Cole and Billy Johnson broke off their working relationship, and Cole met the two men with whom he was to create his most successful songs.
J. Rosamond and James Weldon Johnson were born in Jacksonville, Florida, James Weldon in 1871 and Rosamond in 1873. By the age of four, Rosamond was already an accomplished pianist. Later he studied classical music at the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston, but left after six years because his real interest lay in musical comedy. By age 23, he was touring as a vocalist with the company of Oriental America, said to be the first African-American show on Broadway to differ from a burlesque house act.
His brother James Weldon studied both piano and guitar. After graduating from Atlanta University, he took charge of the Stanton Public School, wrote poetry, and founded a short-lived newspaper called The Daily American. Later he studied law and became the first African-American in Florida to seek and gain admission to the bar through open examination.
Around 1898, Rosamond returned to Jacksonville, and at his insistence, the brothers began work on their first musical, Toloso, "a comic opera satirizing the new American imperialism" after the Spanish-American War. In 1899, they decided to go to New York to seek their fortunes
Though Toloso was never produced, its songs were later used in Broadway musicals, and it introduced the Johnsons to others in the business, including Oscar Hammerstein, Williams and Walker, and Will Marion Cook. It also introduced them to their future partner, Bob Cole.
From the very beginning of their relationship, Bob Cole and the Johnson brothers seem focused on one major goal: elevating the lyrical sophistication of Negro songs. The team's first collaboration was Louisiana Lize, a love song written in a new lyrical style which left out the watermelons, razors, and hot mamas typical of coon songs. For $50, they sold the singing rights to May Irwin, who was then known as a singer of coon songs. Irwin used it in her next show, The Belle of Bridgeport, and the song was later published by Jos. P. Stern and Co.. Its success encouraged the team that their goal was not out of reach, and during the next seven years, Cole, Johnson, and Johnson wrote over 200 songs, working in a unique form of collaboration in which they each took turns writing words, composing melody, and acting as critic.
By 1901, Bob Cole and Rosamond Johnson had put together a sophisticated vaudeville act. Dressed in evening clothes, Rosamond played classical works on the piano, then the pair sang their own compositions and ended the act with a soft-shoe routine by Cole. According to Rosamond, they were walking back uptown after a performance one day when he began to hum the African-American spiritual Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen. Hearing the song, Cole got the idea to rearrange it and work it into their act. When Rosamond objected that this was sacrilegious, Cole responded, "What kind of a musician are you anyway? Been to the Boston Conservatory and can't change a little old tune around." By the time Rosamond finally conceded, Cole had already written the words. The resulting song, Under the Bamboo Tree, sold over 400,000 copies, making it one of the biggest sellers ever.
With Cole's and Rosamond Johnson's popular vaudeville act touring much of the time, James Weldon Johnson began to pursue other interests. At the request of Charles Anderson, a leading black New York politician, he managed the Colored Republican's Club. He also attended Columbia University, studied English, and began work on a novel, The Auto-Biography of an Ex-Colored Man, which was eventually published in 1912.
In 1903, the trio signed an exclusive three-year contract with Klaw and Erlanger, major Broadway producers. In exchange for a monthly salary and royalties, they agreed to write exclusively for Klaw and Erlanger's shows.
When the contract expired, having earned them more than $25,000 a year in royalties, Bob Cole and Rosamond Johnson decided to resume their vaudeville routine. With James Weldon as their manager, they toured throughout the United States and performed in both Paris and London. Legend has it that Under the Bamboo Tree was the last thing they heard as they set sail from New York for Europe and the first thing they heard when they arrived in Paris.
Following their successful tour, Cole and Rosamond Johnson started their own theatrical company. In 1906, they produced and starred in a musical called The Shoo-Fly Regiment. After helping to write the songs for this show, James Weldon decided that it would be the last piece of work they would do together.
Charles Anderson, now a member of the Roosevelt Administration, encouraged him to join the foreign service, and soon after, James Weldon Johnson went to Venezuela as the United States consul. In 1909, he was appointed consul to Nicaragua where he served for over three years.
In 1908, Bob Cole and Rosamond Johnson produced and starred in a new show with an Indian theme. Red Moon was called the best African-American show that had ever been produced because of its superior book and well-written songs.
Soon after Red Moon closed, Cole's health began to fail. Although he recovered briefly and toured with Rosamond for a time in a new vaudeville act, he fell ill again. Rumors of syphilis began to surface. Cole died on August 2, 1911.
Rosamond Johnson went on to write the music and conduct the orchestra for the 1911 revue Hello Paris. It was the first time an African-American conducted a white orchestra for a performance with a white cast in a New York theater. In 1912, Oscar Hammerstein appointed Rosamond musical director of his Grand Opera House in London. On June third of the following year, he married Nora Floyd, and after two years in London, they returned to New York and started the Music School Settlement for Colored People.
In 1917, Rosamond directed a singing orchestra which appeared in a series of ground-breaking plays given by The Coloured Players at the Garden Theater in Madison Square Garden. The plays opened on April 5. The United States declared war on Germany the following day, and although the production continued for a while, the war finally brought it to a close.
Rosamond joined the army and served as a second lieutenant with the 15th Regiment. He appeared in Porgy and Bess in 1935, but never wrote another musical comedy. Rosamond Johnson died on November 11, 1954.
James Weldon Johnson continued to engage in a variety of activities. For ten years, he wrote editorials for the New York Age, a prominent African-American newspaper. He was one of the founders and a charter member of the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers, and he became field secretary for the NAACP in 1916. In 1925, he edited two authoritative volumes of spirituals for which Rosamond arranged most of the music. Five years later, he wrote Black Manhattan, a history of African-Americans in New York, and in 1933, he wrote his autobiography, Along This Way. The 1900 composition Lift Every Voice and Sing, which he wrote in collaboration with his brother Rosamond, is considered by many to be the Negro national anthem. James Weldon Johnson died on June 26, 1938.

Teemo Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
This is sort of a well rounded build for teemo. It has elements of DPS and AP. I personally use this.
Life steal early in the game allows you to lane longer. Attack speed and cooldown reduction runes compliment either a DPS or AP mood, which ever you feel is needed at the time.
The skill order is more of what you think is best at the time. I like to start with Toxic shot first though (It can be used to farm minions well and it punishes champions that retreat early in the game).
The items listed are the ideal final items, buy others and eventually updrade. Buy life potions as see fit.
Rod of Ages is optional if you want to strengthen your mushrooms towards the end of the battle to lean towards an AP build, if not, buy Last Whisper instead.

text: Department of History and Social Sciences Escape the provincialism of the present. You've heard that "those who fail to understand history are doomed to repeat it," but that is a gross oversimplification and a falsehood. History doesn't repeat itself and historians don't study history in order to predict the future. Instead, we study history in order to better understand how previous generations, over more than seven millennia, have coped with the crises and conflicts and changes that confronted them and to see how their choices shaped the world which they bequeathed to us. Historia (as the ancient Greeks called it) is not a story or the acquisition of facts but rather the process through which living generations analyze and interpret those things. History, then, is really all about the "here and now" and historical inquiry is the only way to escape what has been called the "provincialism of the present." Don't study history to find out where mankind is going; study history to find out how mankind got to where we are. The purpose of a university is to educate, rather than to simply train, our students and the History faculty of the University of West Alabama do that through the detailed study of human progress. History is always changing and is always subject to revision because the more that we discover, the more acutely aware we become of how little we actually know. History is intoxicating. History is maddening. History is contested. And history is the journey of a lifetime. Won't you join us? R. Volney "Rob" Riser Assistant Professor of History

Work Experience (Year 10)
There are still around 80 students not signed up for work experience! Don't forget this takes place very soon (25 June-6 July). Get your placement form from Frank (Room 4-212 outside the library) or download one from the link below:
Work Experience - Monday 25 June to Friday 6 July 2018 (two weeks)
What is Work Experience?
Work Experience is an essential part of Year 10 and forms an element of the Work Related Learning that students undertake at Key Stage 4. It has been proven that work experience assists with the student's personal and social development, as well as develop key skills in a work environment, thus improving chances of employment.
When will Work Experience take place?
Work experience will take place from Monday 25 June until Friday 6 July 2018 inclusive and it is mandatory that all Year 10 students take part.
What happens now?
We will be working very closely with the Year 10 students to ensure everything runs as smoothly as possible and will be keeping them informed every step of the way. All Year 10 students will also attend an assembly which will explain the importance of work experience and some more information about the process.
Encouragement to find own placement
Students find their own work experience placement. Our careers advisor, Frank Thompson, has a list of over 200 placements that have previously been offered. This list is displayed outside room 4-212 (outside the library) to help students find a placement.
It is down to the student (with the help of Frank, if needed) to find a suitable placement. When looking for a suitable placement it could be somewhere they really would like to work and have taken the initiative to approach the employer directly or sometimes students may have friends or family members who have offered them work experience at their company/place of work. These placements are usually the most successful as the students are so keen to attend.
Employers need to have Employer's Liability Insurance and meet required Health and Safety standards. However, should a self-employed or small employer not have the necessary insurance, it may be possible for the placement to take place if the student's parents/carers sign a disclaimer.
Please do not hesitate to contact Frank in one of the following ways:

46 Gloriosa superbaCommon Names: glory lily, gloriosa lily, tiger claw Family: Liliaceae (lily Family)
A most unusual and exotic flower, the gloriosa lily is a crimson and yellow vision to behold. In bud, the pale green petals face downward. As the blossom matures, the petals elongate and wrinkle and gradually arch backward while sequencing through a spectrum of color from green to yellow to scarlet. The stamens are extremely prominent and spread outward in graceful curves that follow the petals in their backward progression. Depending on the cultivar, the flower is 3-5 in (7.6-12.7 cm) in length. It is the bizarre shape of the flower along with the its vivid colors that make one gasp at first encounter - and then make you want one.
Other aspects of the plant are also unusual for a member of the lily family. For unlike most lilies, it is a twining vine that is able to grasp with tendrils formed at the tips of the leaves. These are bright green and lance shape, 2-3 in (5.1-7.6 cm) long. It's fascinating to watch a leaf tip elongate into a slender tendril that coils around nearby supports to get a grip (just like a grape vine tendril only it's a leaf!) The gloriosa lily vine grows fast in warm weather, blooms, then dies down to the ground. After a spell, another vine emerges from the tuberous root. There are a several cultivars of Gloriosa superba with 'Rothchildiana' being the most frequently encountered (at least here in Florida where I live). There is an all yellow flowered variety 'Lutea', 'Citrina' is yellow with dark red markings and there's a dwarf called 'Nana'. This is a fabulously showy species and I'd like to have at least one of each.
Native to tropical jungles of Africa. Related species are found in Asia.
CultureLikes moist but well drained, rough, rich soil. Lots of leaf mold and decomposing bark is ideal. Once established, the vine responds well to feeding. The tuber seems to like being dug up a few weeks after a vine has died and moved to a different location. Light: Sun to part sun. Moisture: Moist but well drained. Container grown plants should be kept dry in winter when the plant is dormant. Hardiness: USDA Zones 9 - 11. Can be grown in warmer areas of Zone 8 where it is killed to the ground by freezes but it usually recovers in spring if roots are protected with a thick layer of mulch. Propagation: Offsets (new plants at the base of an existing vine) or divisions of tuber. Plant tubers on their sides about 3 in (7.6 cm) deep.
The gloriosa lily is at its most dramatic when it seems to bloom out of some other plant. For example, any green shrub can provide support, so gloriosa lily flowers can appear out of a viburnum hedge! The vine is weak and sparse standing alone, so is best combined with something else, be it another vine on a trellis, a shrub, or a fence along with morning glories (Ipomoea tricolor), loofah (Luffa aegyptiaca), or practically anything strong enough to support it. This is also a popular plant for providing color in greenhouses and conservatories (it needs bright light and a humid atmosphere if grown indoors).
Even immature flowers are beautiful to behold. For such an exotic plant the gloriosa is very easy to grow and is a real survivor. I planted one behind the shed ten years ago and have never taken good care of it yet each year it manages a few blooms (of course if I fed and watered it I'd be rewarded with dozens of flowers). This year I intend to pamper it!

Leeza Gibbons leading the fight against Alzheimer's tells her side of the story in the March issue of Life Extension® Magazine
Former Entertainment Tonight reporter offers caregiver advice about dealing with a loved one who has Alzheimer's.
Feb 04, 2013, 10:00 EST
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Feb. 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Best known for her role as anchor and reporter on television's Entertainment Tonight, these days Leeza Gibbons is becoming more recognized for working with Alzheimer's caregivers and their loved ones. In the March issue of Life Extension® Magazine, Gibbons reveals her uphill battle caring for her mother suffering from this dreaded disease for the past 10 years.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120223/FL58611LOGO-b )
As a result, Gibbons created an Alzheimer's caregiver empire of invaluable resources for the loved ones of Alzheimer's disease patients. In 2002, she formed The Leeza Gibbons Memory Foundation and Leeza's Place for caregivers.
As Gibbons told Life Extension® Magazine, "We're not involved in the diagnosis or medical area of Alzheimer's. What we do is become partners with continuing care in the community. We align ourselves with hospitals and non-profits while our partners handle the medical side of things."
According to Gibbons' website, Leeza's Place is where family caregivers can become educated, empowered and energized, as well as interact with a support team to gain resources and create their own strategy of coping.
In addition to working with caregivers, the article also notes Gibbons' work with the science and scientists who are working to find a cure for the disease. Gibbons is using her appointment by former Calif. Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger as an Alzheimer's Advocate to become more involved in the science aspect of an Alzheimer's cure.
Her participation with the renowned California Institute for Regenerative Medicine has put her at the door step of cutting-edge cures. Some of that research which has taken place at the University of California focuses on restoring memory in mice.
The Life Extension article also touches on Gibbons' involvement in dealing with a loved one's Alzheimer's diagnosis, and her take on a proper diet that includes dietary supplements.
The March issue of Life Extension® Magazine is available at many leading book stores and supermarkets nationwide. For more information on how to obtain a copy of the magazine, visit www.lef.org or call Life Extension at 1-866-864-3027.
Life Extension Magazine is a monthly publication of the Life Extension Foundation Buyers Club with a readership of over 350,000. The magazine provides coverage of new discoveries involving anti-aging dietary supplements.
The Life Extension Foundation Buyers Club promotes, sells, and distributes the most scientifically advanced health supplements on the market, offering a full range of premium-quality vitamins, minerals, and hormones as well as unique, specially made formulas.

2G case: Court allows A. Raja to depose as defence witness in case
New Delhi: A special court has allowed former telecom minister A. Raja's plea seeking to depose as a witness to defend himself in the ongoing trial in the 2G spectrum scam case.
Special Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) Judge O.P. Saini allowed Raja's plea after the CBI did not oppose it and fixed the matter for 1 July for commencement of recording of defence evidence in the case. "The accused (Raja) wishes to examine himself as a witness in his own defence and the application has been filed under his own signature. Not opposed. Allowed. The accused is at liberty to examine himself as a witness in his own defence," the judge said.
"Accused A. Raja shall ensure that either he himself is ready for his examination as a witness, as prayed by him, or some other witness is present on his behalf on 1 July," it said. Raja had moved an application for summoning defence witnesses in the case saying, "The applicant (Raja) wishes to examine himself as a witness in the present trial."
The court also allowed the pleas filed by former telecom secretary Siddhartha Behura, Unitech Ltd managing director Sanjay Chandra, Reliance ADAG executives Surendra Pipara and Hari Nair, Bollywood producer Karim Morani, Kalaignar TV MD Sharad Kumar and accused firm Unitech Wireless (Tamil Nadu) Pvt.

I also find that the list submitted by these accused is quite reasonable, Accordingly, their prayer is allowed," the judge said.
"These accused are directed to ensure that their witnesses are present in court in the first or second week of July 2014," the court said. Besides these accused, Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam MP Kanimozhi, Reliance ADAG executive Gautam Doshi, Swan Telecom Pvt.

While it is true that a timeshare contract is a binding legal document, it is often mistakenly thought that such a contract cannot only be cancelled. In fact, most timeshare companies maintain that their contracts are non – cancellable. This misconception is perpetuated by timeshare companies and user groups that are funded, maintained and controlled by the timeshare industry.
The FHA 203k loan program provides home buyers the opportunity to buy and fix up a property, without exhausting their personal savings.
The stupidity of our politicians is beyond amazing. They pushed reckless behavior, they appointed reckless bureaucrats, and they refused to do their legal duties of oversite...and they continue to blame everyone else.Let Fannie and Freddie keep their profits now. What the politicians are doing now should be illegal.Let them keep their profits and let them go free to operate.
Understand the need during the recession to repay but we are far beyond the time limit to when Fannie and Freddie can go back to being self-sustaining entities. We are not a Socialist model, doesn't work in our country. They need to retain profits instead of letting politicians try to dole out these dividends to gerrymandering interest groups that fit their needs!
How a massive part if the US economy can experience a blatant conspiratorial fraudulent constitution-violating expropriation in broad daylight and with NO public outcry or media attention is mystifying to me.The truth must come out and justice must be done to save affordable mortgages and property rights in this country.
