Workplace Japery
As unemployment figures soar - and in view of the fact that they may become a thing of the past - here are some of The Mudhutter's favourite workplace stitch ups, wind ups and downright filthiness
From the shopfloor:
1. The Johnny Wilkinson. This involves lining up four cardbord boxes, four lads, one of them being a new apprentice are lined up to try to kick their boxes over the wood rack. Three of the boxes are empty. The one the apprentice is kicking is a box full of metal screws. The look on their face as they swing a boot at a box and it moves about half an inch is a picture.
2. The concealed turd. This has been done in various forms. The one which seemed to go down best was done on a young lad who had a car that was perminately full of rubbish. A turd was hidden in the pocket thing of the drivers door. He drove round with his head out of the window for a week before the coin dropped .
3. The April fool. A few that I can remember are when we rang a lad up from another works and covinced him he'd won a thousand quids worth of musical equipment. He jumped straight into the works van and drove to Dawsons in Wigan to collect his voucher.
One lad was a junior British bodybuilding champion. We found out a bodybuilding products firm were cocidering offering him a sponsorship. We had him shouting down the phone in the office in front of the boss and his staff "Im the biggest Im the best. In fact Im awesome" because he thought he was taking part in an audition for a radio advertising campaign for the firm.
A chubby apprentice was told to take a note to a local shop near our works. The note said "This is a stick up. Give me all the pie's and cakes or I will sit on you".
4. The anal insertion. Never leave anything lying around the brew room. One lad disscovered his Vicks sinex had been stuffed up somebodies arse before he'd used it. The same happened to a lads cig. One apprentice left his phone and his sister recieved a text telling her he was going to "Cum on her tit's".
5. One unpopular apprentice loved his car stereo so much he had a sun visor with Kenwood on it. It had been altered to say Ken Dodd for two weeks before he noticed. Another time his registration number was skillfully changed to read "EL CUNTO" and he was stopped by the police.
From the office:
1. Sellotape down the receiver button on the phone, when the phone rings, receiver is lifted and it keeps ringing. This requires careful application of tape to avoid visibility.
2.Changing the mouse settings to lefthanded.
3. If a ball mouse, remove the ball.
4. Change contrast/brightness/colour down to black.
5. Move the letter indexes on a rollerdex
6. Take one bite out of someones sandwiches
7. Changing the letters on a keyboard to either spell rude words or confuse those who have to look at the keys M & N are the best for this.
8.Loosen holepunch base and ask a colleague to pass it to you.
9. The usual 'give me a word' game, to sneak into phone calls, presentations and meetings without detection.
10. Putting all your colleagues personal effects into a winster box whilst they are at lunch, with a post-it note to speak to the boss (assuming they are in on it).
11. Swapping over the telephone sockets so it is someone else's phone that rings.
12. A real beauty for confusing people who lock there computer to stop people from twatting about with it while they are out, is to put a space after the user name so when they put their password in it won't unlock. This usually only works with the windows classic logon screen.
13. If someone has brought a bag in and is going off on a plane/train later in the day, fill it with assorted old mice/keyboards/leads, it's best not to make it too heavy though as they usually find out.
From the traditional design/art studio or an operating theatre.
Ask to borrow a surgical scalpel (providing its the Swan Morton removable blade type) and wait a few minutes.
Then shout your colleague's name, add 'thanks mate' and throw it back to them having removed the blade.
The number of people who innocently cup their hands to catch it a nanosecond before screaming as it hit is unbelievable.
From the man on the move:
Setting my van sharing mate on fire with a blow torch, I not nearly, really pissed myself.
Was worth it tho. Bit dangerous at 85 on the M62....

A long-serving Texas border school district clerk pleaded guilty Wednesday to stealing more than $332,000 from school cafeteria concession sales on four campuses over a six year period.
Leticia Arreola, 38, admitted to pocketing cash from cafeteria concession sales at four Brownsville Independent School District (ISD) campuses between at least 2010 through January 2016, according to U.S. Attorney Kenneth Magidson. She used her position as an accounting clerk in the school district's Food and Nutrition Services Division to embezzle $332,571.46 from Faulk Elementary, Brownsville Early College High School (BECHS), Brownsville Learning Academy (BLA), and the Brownsville Academic Center (BAC). The scheme fell apart when she could not produce receipts for the student snack bar items.
The woman pleaded guilty on May 1 to a one-count criminal information complaint (attached below), in which she was accused of the theft from Brownsville ISD's federally subsidized food and nutrition program. According to grand jury documents from the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Texas, Brownsville ISD receives over $10,000 per year to help provide cafeteria meals, often breakfasts and lunches, to the school district's predominantly impoverished student population.
School food and nutrition programs operate under the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and are administered on a state level by the Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA). The district also gets cash payments from students for concession food items such as ice cream and cookies.
School districts follow strict procedures on how they deliver, deposit, and account for cash proceeds from their nutrition programs. These monies must be placed in a deposit bag and then delivered on a daily or weekly basis via armored car to the school district's affiliated bank.
According to the U.S. Attorney's Office, there were times when the Brownsville ISD schools would miss their scheduled time to provide the deposits to the armored car. In those instances, the deposit bags were delivered to Arreola who then purportedly stole the money, which she allegedly used for living expenses, vacations, entertainment and shopping.
"Eventually, Arreola was able to arrange for cash deposits from Faulk Elementary, BECHS, BLA and the BAC to be delivered directly to her. When money came in from these schools, she would simply take the money out of the deposit bags and place them in her purse until she left at the end of her work-day. Ultimately, Arreola was asked to provide documentation about the receipt of money from these schools over time and she was unable to do so," according to the U.S. Attorney's Office.
As a school district employee, Arreola earned approximately $20,000 a year, according to the court documents. However, her bank account records over the six year period showed she deposited more than $48,000 in 2010, $46,538 in 2011, $35,561 in 2012, more than $63,000 in both 2013 and 2014, then $71,532 in 2015 and, finally, $4,712 in 2016 all before the Brownsville police and FBI caught up with her.
Arreola may not have been the only employee the school district had under investigation, although the school district declined to comment in February after Silverio Capistran, Jr., Brownsville ISD's Food and Nutrition Services administrator appeared to commit suicide. The Brownsville Herald reported Capistran's body was found with what appeared to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. He was employed with the school district since 2000 and acted as the food services administrator since 2012. At the time of his death, Capistran was on administrative leave with pay since late January, according to Brownsville ISD spokeswoman Drue Brown.
Arreola is free on $30,000 bail, according to Courthouse News Service. The plea deal (attached below) recommended she be sentenced "to the bottom of the advisory guideline level. The maximum penalty is 10 years in federal prison followed by three years of supervised release, and a fine up to $250,000. She will not be eligible for parole during her prison term. Her sentencing is set for August 31.
Last week, the school district issued a statement:
Brownsville ISD takes any allegations of misappropriation of resources seriously. Regarding the recent Food and Nutrition Services Department issues, BISD officials immediately contacted the appropriate external law enforcement agencies when it was discovered that possible criminal activity had occurred. The school district also launched its own internal administrative investigation and has fully cooperated with the various external criminal investigations. BISD will support prosecuting individuals to the full extent of the law if it is determined that illegal activity has occurred. Leticia Arreola was terminated by Brownsville ISD on March 24, 2016. She originally began working for the school district on February 22, 1999.

Criminal Information Complaint: Brownsville ISD USA vs Leticia Arreola

The NYTimes reports polling that reveals we are a depressed nation. With good reason. We are worried about getting jobs, worried about the decline in our net worth with the decline in real estate values, worried over our three wars, worried about the country going broke. And, we are worried because we are conflicted about what to do. According to the NYTimes/CBS poll, 70% say the U.S. is on the wrong track and 63% oppose raising the debt limit, but 61% say Medicare is worth the cost.
Deficit spending is at frightening levels, and yet according to the bipartisan Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget the Republican plan will increase the debt by 40% ($5.5 trillion) over the next ten years. That is a smaller debt increase than the Obama plan (50%, or $7 trillion), but still a huge, unsustainable increase. Our leaders are not realistic and neither are the people they represent.
Americans want their Medicare and Social Security benefits, but do not want to pay for them. The recent Washington Post/ABC poll shows that 65% prefer Medicare to continue as the current defined benefit program over Rep. Ryan's defined premium voucher concept; and, 60% of the remaining 35% who favor the Ryan voucher concept would oppose it if it means paying more to get increases in benefits; that translates to 80% who would oppose the Ryan voucher plan if it will cost more. Catch-22.
Allowing the Bush income tax cuts to expire on those earning over $250,000 would raise only $56 billion in 2013 (only .4% of the current $14 trillion debt). This step should be taken, but the scope of the problem is so huge that there must be more paid by all taxpayers. The best way to do this would be with a value added tax, which is guaranteed to be very unpopular.
No one wants a tax increase, and no one wants a new tax base either. Wherefore, even though a VAT makes more sense than income taxes for a variety of reasons, there is no current political support for a VAT. So, is there any way to market the concept? Yes. Begin with a revenue neutral VAT replacement, in part, of both the corporate income tax and the payroll tax. Then, when future increases will come – and they must come after all politically possible tax cuts are made and after the tax cuts on the $250,000 are allowed to expire in 2013 – the VAT option will be in place to use instead of raising income taxes.

Christmas at Hong Kong Disneyland is such a magical time of the year, the celebrations kick off normally the second half of November and run up to the New Year.
The entire park is transformed into a wonderland full of the holiday cheer, glitzy ornaments, dazzling lights, fluffy snow, holiday wreaths...
And everywhere you go, red, green and golden shiny bows, balls and garlands, merry candy canes and Santa hats... all decorating every corner of this magical world to make it even merrier...
There is of course the magnificent Christmas Tree that greets you as you first come in Main Street, and all the buildings flanking it are splendidly decorated as well...
The holiday celebrations will normally include daily parades and fests with Mickey, Minnie and the gang all dressed up
in holiday gear, singing carols and partying away with the crowds.
There's the usual Character Greeting spots where you get to meet your favourite friends.
Get the daily guide at Guest Services to see the times and locations for that particular day.
And keep your eyes open as you roam around the park, you never know who you might run into... Here's Goofy and Pluto along Main Street in their Christmas costumes...
And of course, a Christmas celebration wouldn't be complete withouth a festive Parade!
Themes for the parades and celebrations vary from year to year, "Let it Snow"...
"Santa Mickey's Toy - Riffic Street Party", etc.
They all share the common beat of rejoicing in this magical time of the year.
And at night, the lights come to life and the spectacle is breathtaking...
If during the day Sleeping Beauty Castle is stunning, wait until the night when it is lit up in all its glory...
...And beautiful Christmas Illumination ceremonies and events take place every day at dusk.
Although the events may vary from year to year to coincide with the theme of the season, it is always spectacular. Some may last only a few minutes, some may be even interactive.
This one took only a few minutes, starting
with the Christmas tree lighting, then one by one, all the lights along Main Street led the way to the castle,
with bursts of shimmer and glow that literally exploded with colour, simply stunning...
Click on the arrow to watch:
Hong Kong Disneyland Christmas Illumination
And Disney's night parade "Disney Paint the Night" will be adding more sparkle to the holidays.

Here's more on the Paint the Night Parade. Right after the parade, you get to "Paint the Christmas Tree", be sure to join in at Main Street USA.
And don't forget the "Disney in the Stars" Fireworks extravaganza that lits up the skies every night, Christmas time is no exception!

We have been designing, producing and delivering quality excellence in corrugated merchandising solutions for some time now, and we pat ourselves on the back for the many years worth of satisfied customers we've created POP displays for. It's not easy to be seen and acknowledged within a mass of competition on the retail floor. You have to be innovative, creative and resourceful to make an impact and achieve the sales goals you seek to accomplish. Our intention at McLeish Corr-A-Box is to co-create solutions with you to get you to where you want to be. Our customer satisfaction is ours, and on your team, we only succeed when you do.
We Are Corrugated Experts
In our industry, we're considered corrugated experts, thanks to over forty successful years in business designing and manufacturing quality products. We keep on top of our business practices, new technologies, environmentally friendly green initiatives, and we look to streamline production so we can thus pass the savings and knowledge onto our customers. Keeping a breast of current trends, consumer habits and industry innovation allows us the power to most effectively design and produce the solutions our customers seek year after year. As a long time point of purchase display manufacturer, we possess the skill and experience of creating a plethora of cost effective corrugated merchandising solutions for customers in practically every situation. Have a look at our website to see a few examples.
Life as a Product on Display
As a product for sale in a competitive environment, best positioning is a major factor for success. You must be seen before you can be purchased and location becomes paramount. If you end up in a display unit, you want to look good because a different story is being told about you as opposed to if you were residing on retail shelf space sandwiched between your competitors vying for attention. You hope that the display does you justice, you're a good item, even a little hoopla or pizzazz would be nice to get you noticed. Extra features and incentives may help you to get picked up and taken to the cash register for purchase. Our designed POP displays have the ability to maximize the visibility of your goods in a retail environment to achieve the goal of turning displayed products into sales revenues.
Seasonal Trends
Point of purchase displays can follow seasonal shopping trends depending on the products your company offers. You may have SKUs that are best suited to certain holidays, like Christmas decorations or Halloween novelties. Maybe your offerings are seasonally time specific, as with summer and sun screen or winter and ice scrapers. If you're launching a new product or revamping/repackaging an existing one, display units are effective tools in re/introducing items on the retail floor.
Beyond the Purchase
Is your intention to solely display your products strictly for purchase or do you have something of added value to offer the consumer? Consider powering up your retailing unit with additional offerings or incentives such as coupons, product information booklets, recipes, project ideas, etc. Elements of additional value generate excitement, especially when you involve social media marketing initiatives. POP displays have come a long way since we started, beyond just creative graphics and structural design. Technical innovation has opened the doors of potential impact and effective opportunities available to our customers, and we enjoy co-creating fresh ideas in corrugated retail merchandising. Contact us to see what we can do for your business.
POP Displays Stellar Reputation
At McLeish Corr-A-Box, we really know what we're doing, we enjoy what we do and we do it well. Successful in Toronto, the GTA and across Ontario for over forty years, our corrugated solutions satisfy enough to solidify repeat orders and long time customers. We strive to ensure our customers are clearly seen and presented well in any retail environment, regardless if their POP display is a floor model, a counter top unit or display ready pallets. We go the distance for our customers and that affords us a stellar reputation in our industry.

O Soul Of Mine, Rise Up - Poem by Laurel Mae Matthews
O Soul of mine, rise up and sing
With prayerful, humble voice!
O God, resound Thy heartbeat
Let all the earth rejoice. I long to hear Thy voice, that hum
Of universes turning!
I long to be one with Thy song,
My own eternal yearning. Sound the tone, that one keynote,
My soul's own will to be,
And let the morning stars that sing
Enforce the harmony. O God, I say Thy name in awe,
Whispers oh so sweet!
Buddha, Allah, Yahweh, Christ
The Light makes me complete! I am Thy child, make of me
Thy perfect image bright.
Transform me now and raise me up,
All consuming Light!

Tigers Hammered: Match Report
By Tiger Tim
January 29 2009
Hull lost for the 6th straight league game this time going down 2-0 to West Ham. Hull never really got going in the match and were by far second best in the 1st half. West Ham had the better opening and were unlucky not to go 1 up on when Matt Duke saved well from Jack Collison.
West Ham continued to press and Di Michele was unlucky to see his curling effort come back off the post on 16 minutes. West Ham were then awarded a penalty on 20 minutes for a foul on Carlton Cole by Sam Ricketts the decision did seem a harsh one. Mark Noble stepped up to take the penalty having scored his last 3 however this time Matt Duke pulled off a great Save to keep the score at 0-0.
West Ham kept the pressure on and it was no surprise when on 32 minutes their took the lead, Carlton Cole with a shot which Duke could only parry and Di Michele was there to fire the ball into the roof of the net. 1-0 West ham and no more then their Deserved. Hull did have chances but their were to close to Robert Green or wide. The 1st half ended 1-0 to the Hammers.
It was a poor 1st half from Hull but they remained unchanged for the start of the second half. West Ham then went 2-0 up on 50 minutes a tap in for Carlton Cole after Di Michele hit the post. Two minutes later Hull made a double substitution Manucho and Geovanni coming off to be replaced by new signing Jimmy Bullard and Craig Fagan.
Within 8 minutes of His debut Bullard had Hull's best chance of the game, having an effort from 25 yards which Green did well to get a cross and push it around the post. Hull never really looked like getting back into the game and it was West Ham who looked more likely to extend their lead. Matt duke been called upon again as he 1st denied Carlton Cole then got up quickly to deny Di Michele. Noble had another chance for West Ham on 78 minutes Matt Duke did well to turn his chip over the bar.
Duke was on hand to save a Faubert shot as he justified Phil Brown's Decision to start him. West Ham then brought on a new signing of their own Savio replacing Di Michele who played well up front for The Hammers. The game ended 2-0 to West Ham a result which could've easy have been 4 or 5 nil. The result means Hull slip to 10th in the league and its hard to see when the next win will come from. Worrying times for Hull supporters.

"What pleased me was the attitude, they didn't want to lose a challenge and they were chasing back."

Online retail sales hit £50bn
It always amazes, and continues to amaze us, that so few law firms, other than personal injury law firms. Really accept that business of all kinds now get a sizeable and rising proportion of instructions directly from the internet. This is fact, whether lawyers accept it or not.
Whilst legal services are of course different to selling widgets, the principle of increasing internet usage and decisions made due to surfing still applies to services and professional services. People are using and spending money on the internet like never before, growth continues to be exponential.
Research published just after Christmas on the online retail market proves that consumers, and buyers of legal services are also consumers, prefer to shop online. In the research :-
- Online shoppers spent an average of just under £1,500 on 39 items each last year,
- Kelkoo's survey reveals that sales growth online for retailers was an average of 14%, and that's in a recession
- The overall expenditure in the Uk online is now over £50 billion per annum
Most estimates for the UK legal market suggest that over 15% of instructions, and rising, are derived directly from the net. If your website is invisible in google for numerous search terms, you are not going to get any work from the web, simple as that.

There is an infectious, energetic rhythm in Fort St. John, a friendly city that has the second youngest population in British Columbia. Optimism, wealth, and good, clean fun are in the hearts of every resident. Proclaimed as the Music Capital of Northern BC in 2009, Fort St. John is alive with the sound of music all year round.
Outside the city limits, a mosaic of croplands grow under the warm summer skies, creating a patchwork that reaches out to the area's deep, clean lakes and lush forests. Here adventurers, recreational enthusiasts, and wildlife share thousands of acres of pristine wilderness playground.
While our long hot summer days are filled with water-skiing, hiking, camping and horseback riding, our bright, wooly winters create the perfect playing fields for the avid sledders, ice fishermen, cross-country skiers and hunters.
The "Aurora borealis" otherwise known as the Northern Lights is one of nature's amazing attributes and can best be seen on a clear, winter night right around Fort St. John.
Fort St. John is the place for adventure, no matter the season. A place where weather extremes are embraced for the challenge they offer and the satisfaction they reward.
Historically, Fort St. John traces its roots back to the end of the 18th century, when Alexander Mackenzie opened a series of forts along the Peace River to service the fur traders.
At the end of World War I, many veterans moved westward to the fertile agricultural lands on both sides of the Peace River, and formed the population base for the tiny hamlet of Fort St. John. In 1942, the Alaska Highway was completed which sparked a population boom and the discovery of high-grade oil in 1951 that set the city's course as British Columbia's Oil & Gas Capital.
Fort St. John is now home to more than 19,000 people and is the largest regional centre in northeastern British Columbia serving 60,000 people in the area.
Fort St. John is located on a plateau above the Peace River Valley 73 km (45.5 mi) northwest of Dawson Creek and 387 km (240 mi) southeast of Fort Nelson. Fort St. John is also accessible year-round by air with daily flights to/from major Western Canadian locations. Car rentals are available from the airport. A daily bus service serves Fort St. John from all major cities.
The Fort St. John North Peace Museum tells the story of the region from First Nations' settlements to the oil and gas industries of today. Explore a tepee, trapper's cabin, blacksmith's shop, 1930's dentist's office, hospital room and much more.
The North Peace Cultural Centre is home to a 400+ seat live theatre showcasing musical, theatrical and other performances year-round.
Approximately 100 km (60 mi) west of Fort St. John is the Peace Canyon Dam. A self-guided tour will take you back to the pioneer days of the area, the construction of the dam, and to the discovery of dinosaur tracks in the canyon. A short distance away is the WAC Bennett Dam where your experience begins with interactive displays in the Visitor Centre; you then get to enjoy a movie on the building of the dam. Then don a hard hat, jump onthe bus, and head down the hill for your underground tour of one of the largest powerhouses in the world.
Fish Creek Community Forest features more than 4 km (2.5 mi) of interconnecting trails for people of all abilities. The trails range from flat terrain to challenging hills.
Mountain bikers can enjoy hundreds of kilometres of trails including cross-country trails in Beatton Provincial Park and the demanding Beatton River trails. Beginners can try out the paved trails running parallel to the City's south-east, north-east, and the connection to the west bypass roads.
There is an abundance of fish in the many lakes in and around Fort St. John. Northern Pike, Bull Trout, Rainbow Trout, Burbot, Whitefish are just some of the species found in the area. Local Visitor Centres can provide a Fishing Guide and Regulations.
Fort St. John is home to two golf courses. Fort St. John Link's Golf Course is a par 36, 9-hole course that boast #6 as their signature hole with a scenic 116 yard tee shot over a shallow ravine. Lakepoint Golf & Country Club just outside of town is a championship 18-hole course with driving range, restaurant, lessons and a pro shop.
Learn about the hard-working pioneers who built Fort St. John into what it is today. Start off at the Visitor Centre and wind your way through the downtown core to view the historic panels and discover the many interesting characters that helped shape the town starting back in the 1930s.
Cross-country skiing is popular in Beatton Provincial Park where 12 km (7 mi) of hilly trails are kept groomed. Links Golf Course also has groomed trails. The Northland Trailblazers Snowmobile Club has four designated snowmobile trails in the Fort St. John area. One of these, the Stewart Lake Trail, includes over 300 km (180 mi) of accessible maintained trails. There are five "day area" rest stops throughout the area, with sheltered seating, firepits and outhouses. These snowmobile trails are safe for the whole family. Charlie Lake is another popular area and snowmobiling starts as soon as the lake is safely frozen.

Summer is here, and Chrissy Teigen is heating up the pages of GQ Mexico.
Teigen appears topless on the cover of GQ Mexico's July 2014 issue wearing nothing but blue bikini briefs and a huge smile. The 28-year-old's grin is something she wears well, and often.
"I think I inherited my personality from my mother, she's the happiest being in the world, I've never seen her in a bad mood," she told the magazine, "My bad side I must have got it from my dad."
Part of that personality is her hilarious sense of humor. On Wednesday, June 25, she shared her GQ Mexico cover on Instagram and, in typical Chrissy fashion, made a joke about it, writing: "Hola!! Como se dice 'boobs' @GQmexico."
Check out Teigen's cover and a video from the shoot below.

WATCH: Cam Newton hops fence to bring sheer joy to students
Former Auburn quarterback and current Carolina Panthers star Cam Newton sure knows how to leave an impression on kids.
Per WSOC-TV in Charlotte, Newton was in Davidson, N.C., when he noticed a student wearing his No. 1 jersey on the Community School of Davidson's playground.
That's when Newton hopped the fence to throw the football around with students who absolutely could not believe what and who they were seeing.
"I saw one girl crying and hyperventilating and when I asked, 'Sweetheart what's wrong?' she said, 'That was just the best moment of my life,'" teacher Mimi Siadak told the TV station.
The encounter also included a group "dabbing" photo and Newton encouraging the students to heckle a teacher wearing Steelers gear.
Nothing like a visit from the hometown hero to brighten everyone's day.

Online gaming has a vast reach that has been expanding for the past two decades. Malaysia is not left behind, having access to all casinos the market has to offer. If you happen to be from Malaysia, rest assured you can play at any online casino that is willing to accept your wager. As far as you should know, play as much as you want without worrying that somebody will come with a knock on your door. It's a big online gaming market and you can explore all of it.
To some it might be unclear how a country that has been part of the notorious restricted country lists for many years, still has access to online casinos. Just like there are no two players alike, there are diverse online casinos with different scopes and objectives.
Malaysians should know that if the casino accepts wagers from players from Malaysia, they can play. The government of Malaysia seems to be preoccupied with other national matters. The Sharia Law prohibits gambling and operation of gambling facilities on the grounds of Malaysia. However, there hasn't been any action from the government as to enforce this law. Moreover, there isn't a law that explicitly states that online gaming is prohibited.
An outdated law since the 1950s can be interpreted that it is an obstacle for online casino players from Malaysia, but as we hinted earlier, the government just doesn't care. Online casinos cannot be operated in Malaysia, but Malays can play at online casinos.
Despite what we said earlier, Malaysia has one of the most luxurious gambling resorts in the world called Genting Highlands Resort. As the name suggests, it's a mountain resort where passionate casino players from all over the world can enjoy all types of games while being treated as royalty. Nevertheless, we're here to talk about the online casino market in Malaysia.
Players' safety is a major concern, especially when the government won't watch your back in case you get mistreated. Then again, the lack of regulation gives Malaysian players plenty of options. That's why it's recommended to stick with online casinos that have proven to be fair, kind and generous to their players. More importantly, play only at regulated, licensed and regularly audited online casinos if you want to be reassured that you have gotten a fair chance at winning.
Because gambling or gaming is illegal you cannot report your profits to the tax authority. The luxurious gambling resort, Genting Highlands Resort is the entity that's getting taxed. If, let's assume online gaming was legal in Malaysia, players would've had to report the profits. The online casino operator might have had to report your profits to the tax authority as a safety net that all players that have profited have reported their profits.
For the time being, Malays players can enjoy tax free online gaming. However, South East Asia proved to be a fast evolving gaming market. If governments sense that they can increase the tax revenues they become adamant that online gaming must become regulated and all winnings, profits taxed. On the other hand, this means higher player safety. In a way, it's a double-edged sword.
Because the online gaming offer is not shaped by their very own laws, it all comes down to the affinity of the casino operator and the player. If they can reach a middle ground for cooperation, it can become one fruitful relationship with many exciting and memorable moments. Malay players should keep an eye on the restricted countries list as it usually is listed among other usual suspects. Furthermore, if you want to play with bonus funds, you should check the bonus terms as well to see if you're eligible for bonus deals and promotions.
Guts Casino has proven to be a great gaming environment for players from Malaysia, offering a diverse online casino game collection and a continuous stream of unique promotions. Take a shot at Casino Room as our 2nd suggestion for Malaysian players. You will enjoy NetEnt's games for sure!
Last on our top 3 online casinos for players from Malaysia is BitStarz Casino. They've gone above and beyond to get closer to every player from any corner of the Earth. Deposit and play in Bitcoins, enjoy an abundant game library. On top of this, you are treated fairly with state of the art Provability fairness system.

It's all about redundancy: If one device fails, another one kicks in. The same holds true for pilots. And lest bad food put both the pilot and the copilot out of commission at the same time, there's an ironclad rule in the cockpit: Never pick the same meal option. But if the maverick ideas of a handful of engineers become reality, cockpit redundancy could soon become a thing of the past -- and copilots could be gone in as few as 10 to 15 years."

GM Named Military Times Best for Vets Employer
GM is the only automaker recognized for second consecutive year
DETROIT – For the second consecutive year, General Motors is the only automaker recognized by Military Times in its Best for Vets: Employers 2016 rankings. The Best for Vets list evaluates company culture and policies that cater to military veterans.
"The recognition is a credit to the ongoing hard work of our military affairs, veteran hiring and employee resource group leaders," said Ken Barrett, GM chief diversity officer and a former U.S. Navy captain. "Veterans bring a unique perspective and strong work ethic – and make us a better, stronger company."
The award is based on a rigorous 90-question survey analyzing a company's efforts to connect with veterans and provide an environment for success. To view the complete list of companies, visit militarytimes.com/best-for-vets.
"We applaud GM's ongoing efforts to hire and support its veteran employees, and we hope they inspire others in their industry to become 'Best for Vets' employers in 2017," said Peter Lundquist, president, Sightline Media Group and general manager, Military Times.
GM has supported the U.S. military since 1917, when 90 percent of GM's truck production was directed toward WWI manufacturing. During WWII, GM converted all its plant facilities in support of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's call for an "Arsenal of Democracy," and has produced more U.S. military vehicles than any manufacturer in history.
Today, more than 14,000 veterans work at GM facilities across the U.S., and GM partners with Building for America's Bravest, Hiring Our Heroes and the Achilles Freedom Team to support military families.
In 2016, GM was the only automaker named a top employer for military veterans and spouses by both G.I. Jobs and Military Spouse magazines.
GM is also committed to its active-duty, reserve and veteran customers, as well as their spouses. In honor of Military Appreciation Month, the military discount program for Chevrolet, Buick and GMC vehicles has been expanded to include all veterans, regardless of separation date, through May 31, 2016. To learn more, visit gmmilitarydiscount.com.
General Motors Co. (NYSE:GM, TSX: GMM) and its partners produce vehicles in 30 countries, and the company has leadership positions in the world's largest and fastest-growing automotive markets. GM, its subsidiaries and joint venture entities sell vehicles under the Chevrolet, Cadillac, Baojun, Buick, GMC, Holden, Jiefang, Opel, Vauxhall and Wuling brands. More information on the company and its subsidiaries, including OnStar, a global leader in vehicle safety, security and information services, can be found at https://www.gm.com.

|Fig.1: Fiber Bragg grating.
Bragg gratings are periodic modifications of the refractive index, which reflect light of a desired wavelength. These elements can be realized in various devices, most prominently in fibers [Laser Photonics Rev., Vol 6 (6) pp. 709-723 (2012)]. The applications of such Fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) range from robust sensors to integrated cavity mirrors of fiber lasers. In contrast, Volume Bragg Gratings (VBGs) are structures generated inside bulk volume (e.g. pure fused silica) [Applied Physics A Vol. 102 (1) pp. 617-620 (2010)].
|Fig.2: Volume Bragg grating.
They serve as important elements for frequency stabilization of lasers, free beam pulse compresssion or high power beam combining. Conventional means to fabricate Bragg gratings with long pulse UV-lasers rely on photo-sensitized glasses. This requirement limits the flexibility in terms of host material, e.g. the inscription in highly rare earth doped fiber cores or in phosphate glasses is barely possible.
If ultrashort pulse lasers are employed to inscribe Bragg gratings many of these limitations can be overcome:
|Fig.3: Inscripion setup for FBGs.
- Inscription into various non-photosensitive glasses
- Inscription into highly doped laser fibers
- Tailored multimodal response of FBG due to adjusted geometry of Bragg grating
- Resilience against bleaching and temperatures up to 1000°C.

Taurus - 2 years and 8 months ago
I miss my Second Baptist Church family in Ogden, Utah!
I was declared "unfit for service" and suffered from depression, yet I learned some valuable lessons from it all, which I now share through my music (as TaurusBeats) and words in Macho Spouse and Minister Fitness.
My goal is to help you better lead and love your family, so you can have a lasting and meaningful impact on the people around you.
More about me...

I bet you thought that I was going to talk about Valentine's Day, didn't you? Well maybe later, but not in this post. Today, I want to introduce you to the first black surgeon who performed the first open heart surgery on a stab victim.
Mr. Daniel Hale Williams
*photo courtesy of Chicago Tribute
Mr. Williams is also getting double props on my blog because he is indeed from the city of wind. He opened up a practice on the south side of Chicago that would employ all black interns, nurses, and doctors. A hospital by the name of Provident.
I am sure that he was indeed a trailblazer for all black doctors that came after him, since he traveled around the country giving talks to other physicians.
Hopefully, you are enjoying our series on those from Black History who aren't as highlighted in the media and books.
~Make It A Fantastic Day

New Combo Drug Jentadueto XR Approved for Diabetes
Roni Shye - June 23, 2016
Jentadueto XR (metformin/linagliptin) is the newest once-daily combination drug approved by the FDA to treat type 2 diabetes.
Combination drugs can also be a convenient way to join together two drugs that work differently to treat a particular health condition, and extended release versions like Jentadueto XR mean you only need to take your prescription once per day. In addition, many medications are combined because they work better together than either medication alone. See More

The Influence of Linguistics: Plus and Minus.
Bolinger, Dwight
This paper presents a survey of the development of linguistics and the influence of linguistics on second language learning. Emphasis is given to the era beginning with language instruction during World War II to the present day. The influence of structural linguistics is described. The resulting audiolingual approach is also considered and evaluated. The resurgence of traditional grammar accompanying the development of transformation theory and a cognitive approach is discussed. The author considers the contributions as well as the shortcomings of the theories and states that the element most severely neglected by linguistic theory is meaning. (VM)

I was not the biggest Cash fan growing up. I bristled at anything remotely "country". Dad was a big fan so I got a solid foundation on the basics. It wasn't until his later years and his crossover to the rock side of the world that I gained more respect and began to pay more attention to him. I got to meet him once in the Nashville airport. Super nice and down to earth type. Smaller in stature than you'd think.
His cover of Soundgarden's Rusty Cage solidified me as a fan. Bloody brilliant. One of the best re-tellings of a song of all time. Will try to feature that in a revived version of Friday Night Music Fights (and I think Cash will win).
Friend recently sent me a copy of American VI and though a somber album, it is true genius. Pure Cash.

Shalom Eric,
I had much the same experience a few years ago after listening to Johnny Cash's America III. On America IV his cover of Trent Reznor's Hurt convinced me that my dad had been right all along.
I usually have an allergic reaction to country, but Cash? Genius.
Shalom Brian,
As science fiction writer Theodore Sturgeon told us:
Sure, 90 percent of science fiction is crud. That's because 90 percent of everything is crud.
That includes Country music of course. Artists like The Highwaymen go a long way to filling the 10 percent.
Dude transcended any music categorization labels. Pure genius.
Hurt is good as well but Rusty Cage was the one that grabbed me. Probably because Soundgarden was a big influence in the early 90s.
I love that man and I'm not embarrassed to admit it. He was brilliant and timeless.

GODS OF EGYPT Movie Review by The Commander
When I was in high school many, many years ago, I was a fan of the Greek Mythology book series that were required reading. I was never knowledgeable about Egyptian Mythology, other than RA the sun god, so when I heard they were making a big budget movie on this subject, I couldn't wait to see it. The trailers looked interesting, it has a good cast, what could go wrong? I liked Gerard Butler
While I found this movie to be somewhat entertaining (for young kids and simpleminded people) it became more of a cartoon, similar to Thor, than to Greek (or should I say Egyptian) Mythology.
I'll try to explain it without giving anything away, if that's even possible.
RA, the sun god, is a good god (unlike the way they portrayed him in Stargate) who protects the people of Earth, while riding on his flying ark fortress in the heavens, from being plunged into darkness by a big, bad demon. RA has two sons, whom both live on Earth: Osiris (Bryan Brown), the good son, a god who rules over the mortals in Egypt, and Set (Gerard Butler) the evil son, a god who's been cast out to live and rule in the desert. The day has come when Osiris is turning the kingdom over to his son, Horus (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau), a god who likes to party a bit too much, when the ceremony is interrupted by Set, who, well you know what the evil brother does… causes chaos. I don't want to tell you what happens, but let me just say: Horus is left blind and Set rules the mortals, removing their freedom where they are forced into slavery. Sounds like a mix between Thor and Mississippi in the sixties, doesn't it?
To the rescue, comes Bek, (Brenton Thwaites) a young mortal who's in love with a girl, but is basically a thief. Add a lot of drama, death, magic, mythical stuff, a love story, a journey and other stuff, and you end up at the big climatic scene. Horus battles Set for ruling control of the Kingdom. It's basically the same story in every fairytale: good versus evil; evil wins and imprisons good; good finally, after several attempts, beats evil.
OK, so it's a simple story, the special effects are average, the 3D was OK, and the performances were adequate. But seeing a mortal walk amongst the gods on the big screen (who are actually 3 feet taller) gave me hope that someday, I too, would be able to… Ah, forget it—it'll never happen!

Not even a full year into their new bluegrass format, WMAK, Lobelville, TN has decided bluegrass has bombed in their market.
The station will be reverting back to a Rock & Roll Oldies format called CLASSIC GOLD and will feature music from the 1950s to the 1970s.
The announcement was made Wednesday this week on the station's Facebook page:
"After conducting local market research, we've decided to follow the outcome of that research and drop the bluegrass format on WMAK effective next week! Solid Gold 16 WMAK will return playing oldies from the 50's to the 70's. We apologize, and while we enjoyed the format, we just couldn't make it work. Alan Kabel will remain in mornings, and we have a special surprise of another legendary radio host forthcoming! We thank you for listening and understand if you choose to drop off this Facebook page."
WMAK made their switch to an all bluegrass 24/7 radio station with a great deal of fanfare immediately after finishing the 2013 Christmas seasonal music.
The news this week, of the format change back to oldies, comes as quite a shock. Just a few months ago, station owner Chris Lash told us, "I'm dedicated to the bluegrass format..."
The station had been carrying THE PRESCRIPTION BLUEGRASS RADIO program every Saturday afternoon at 1pm CT. Listeners looking for a replacement for the lost program can check the Prescription Bluegrass web page ...

Hello Reader!
As many of you know, I went to BookCon in New York last week. I had been the previous year, and was excited to be back for the two day event.
For the most part I had a great time, was fortunate enough to get most of the books on my list, and able to talk to other book lovers like myself. By the end of Sunday, I could barely walk out of the convention, because of everything I packed into those two days.
Other than my broken body being unable to keep up, sadly there was another black mark on the experience. Bear with me, this is a long story, but an important one. I do so with the purpose of letting others know who might be considering going next year, and not to just shit on a publisher, so I'll leave their name out of it (though I'm pretty sure those present know who I'm talking about).
First off, I want to state that I'm thankful that this publisher had so many amazing ARCs and giveaways available, which ended up being both a blessing and a curse for them this year. Like this year, last year this publisher had a big spot, but they were off to the side, not smack in the middle like this year. I think that was probably the first mistake.
Due to their popularity and location, this 'booth' was always crowded, but for the most part handled. That was until a VERY popular ARC was being dropped on Saturday, and then things went from crowded to crazy, to the point where I was worried.
The prior year, I remember the same publisher handling big crowds, but I never felt worried. I feel like the key lies in the fact that the previous year, when I arrived an hour early to a signing at their booth, the volunteers would make an 'unofficial' line until they were given the okay to make an 'official' line. Technically they didn't make a line until half an hour before the signing/giveaway, but some of them were too popular and it would have just caused chaos
And folks, that's what happened this year.
For some reason this publisher was adamant about not starting a line until 30 minutes prior the signing. I don't know why the hard stop this year, but the crowds got crazy. And since they were now in the middle of the room, major pathways were being blocked, so things… got ugly.
Security came and started to break up crowds, but nothing was more upsetting than how some of the publisher's workers started treating people. I don't care what's going on, it's never okay to threaten teenage girls and tell them you're going to kick them out of BookCon.
Instead of handling the situation, I just heard a lot of yelling, and one person in particular got really nasty. I'm not at fault because you only have 200 tickets for this signing, and there's already double that amount waiting for the line to start.
And I want to state that I'm not upset at all with the workers/volunteers who were kind under the pressure. I saw the same concern for safety and order reflected in their eyes. I know many were just really overwhelmed, and honestly it was really just one person that really pushed me over the edge. I just think that so much could have been handled better. I really hope this publisher figures out more efficient ways to handle the crowds.
I was nearby their area on Sunday, when they had two or three major signings/giveaways happening close together. And again, it was a hot mess. So many people left disappointed.
It is one thing to walk up to a line and be told it's closed, because that's on me for not getting there quicker. It is another thing to get there an hour prior and see people who got there just a couple of minutes ago get a ticket before you. That is just poor planning, and I saw it happen a lot that weekend.
So with that, I don't think I'll be going back to BookCon. At least not for some time. There's a couple of other events I want to try out.
I know that many will think, 'well, you got free books, so you should just shut your trap.' But this wasn't free. I paid for tickets; to the event, for my train, and for my hotel. This was actually really expensive. I do it because I love books and I love my blog. With this and NetGalley I want to remain up to date. But I don't want to go to an event where I ask simple questions, like 'where's the line going to start?' and get snapped at by one person, and then get different answers from another.
I shouldn't have to overhear two teens come up to their mom distraught, because they were just trying to figure out what was going on with a popular signing, and then got threatened to be kicked out.
I wish this was a happier post, because like I said, I actually had a good time despite the chaos with this one publisher. I didn't even know if I wanted to talk about this. But I know how much money goes into attending BookCon for those not in New York City.
Because after talking to those girls, I got really upset, and it solidified my choice to go in a new direction next year.
