JOSEPH S. NEAL, APPELLANTv.SECRETARY OF THE NAVY AND COMMANDANT OF THE MARINE CORPS, APPELLEES
ON APPEAL FROM A JUDGMENT OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF PENNSYLVANIA (Civ. A. No. 76-3326)
Before Hunter, Weis and Sloviter, Circuit Judges.
Author: Sloviter
Opinion OF THE COURT
Joseph Neal, appellant, a member of the United States Marine Corps for more than fourteen years, was denied permission to reenlist. The questions he has presented on appeal are: (1) Whether the actions taken by the Marine Corps and the Navy with respect to Neal's reenlistment request violated their statutory mandates and relevant military regulations and procedures; (2) Whether the administrative determination not to permit Neal to reenlist in the Marine Corps was arbitrary and capricious and without any substantial and reasoned basis in fact; and (3) Whether the procedures followed by the Marine Corps and the Navy violated Neal's due process rights.*fn*
The facts in this case are fully described in the opinion of the district court, and therefore will be summarized only briefly here. See Neal v. Secretary of the Navy, 472 F. Supp. 763, 766-769 (E.D.Pa.1979). Neal originally enlisted in the Marine Corps on May 18, 1960; he reenlisted on November 18, 1964 and on October 24, 1970. He served on active duty including service in Cuba in the early 1960's and two tours of duty in Vietnam. He received numerous decorations for his actions and service in Vietnam,*fn1 and also received the Good Conduct Medal four times for conduct denoting "honesty and faithful service in keeping with the highest traditions of the Marine Corps."
In July 1973, he was promoted to the rank of gunnery sergeant, and in February 1974, he was appointed to recruiting duty, a selection which demonstrated confidence in his ability and performance.*fn2 In connection with his promotion, Neal was required to and did submit a request to reenlist a third time in May 1974. Neal's term of duty would have expired in October 1974, but was extended for two months to permit him to complete a training course at the Army Corps of Engineers joint services school.
Neal's request to reenlist for five years was referred to the Enlisted Performance Board ("EPB") on August 24, 1974. The EPB provides the Commandant of the Marine Corps with advice and recommendations on enlisted personnel matters which he can either approve or disapprove. The EPB which considered Neal's reenlistment was convened pursuant to the Precept for the Enlisted Performance Board then in effect, dated October 26, 1973, which provided that the EPB would consider and make recommendations on, inter alia, the reenlistment of Marines where the reenlistment would result in service beyond 20 or 30 years.*fn3
The primary challenge which Neal presses in this lawsuit concerns the proceedings conducted by the EPB. Neal was informed, through a communication to his commanding officer, that the EPB was reviewing Neal's application for reenlistment, that a psychiatric evaluation was required, and that the EPB would consider two Naval Investigative Service ("NIS") reports dated September 18, 1972 and January 8, 1974. Neal was also informed that any written statement concerning these reports which he submitted before September 11, 1974 would be considered by the EPB in its review. However, neither Neal nor his commanding officer was permitted to see these reports nor were they able to obtain any additional information about them. Additionally, Neal was not advised to seek the assistance of counsel nor informed of the availability of counsel.
The two NIS reports concerned two incidents in which Neal was allegedly involved in homosexual behavior. Neal submitted a handwritten letter, dated September 5, 1974, setting forth his own version of the incidents which he correctly guessed were the subject of those reports. His letter contained his firm denial of any participation in homosexual acts and reflected his concern at being stigmatized as a homosexual. The EPB was also provided with a psychiatric evaluation of Neal, prepared for the purpose of evaluating his fitness to reenlist, which found him "(f)it for full duty (and) recommended for same."
In its consideration of Neal's reenlistment request, the EPB reviewed, inter alia, the 1972 NIS report regarding an investigation of allegations that Neal had made homosexual advances towards another Marine while stationed in Okinawa, which investigation was dropped without the filing of any charges against Neal; the 1974 NIS Report which consisted of a police file showing the arrest of Neal by California police on charges of assault with a deadly weapon and sexual perversion, which charges were dismissed with prejudice when the alleged victim did not appear at trial; and other material which Neal was unaware would be considered, including a 1970 NIS Report regarding an interview of Neal concerning the suspected homosexuality of another Marine, references to a California police report that Neal had been contacted by the Oceanside Police Department on two occasions when he was drunk, which had been incorporated into the 1974 NIS Report, and the report of a March 1971 incident when Neal was disciplined after resisting apprehension by military police at Jacksonville, North Carolina. Neither Neal nor any other witnesses appeared before the EPB.
The EPB recognized that Neal's performance since 1970 had been "generally described as excellent," but recommended against Neal's reenlistment finding that his "personal conduct over the last five years had been prejudicial to the Marine Corps and not in keeping with the high standards expected of Marine (staff noncommissioned officers)." The one-page EPB opinion relied heavily on the three NIS reports. The EPB recommended that, based on "all the relevant facts", Neal be allowed no further service beyond his present term of service. The Commandant approved the EPB recommendation, and on November 20, 1974 Neal was informed of the denial of his reenlistment request but not of the reasons for the denial. On December 23, 1974 Neal was honorably discharged with a reenlistment code of RE-3C which bars reenlistment except by authorization of the Commandant.
Neal made efforts to learn the basis for the EPB decision since he was not furnished with a copy of its opinion. His counsel requested a copy of Neal's entire service record but was not supplied with the EPB opinion nor informed of its existence. Neal received edited versions of the NIS reports in March 1976, at which time he first learned of the existence of the 1970 NIS Report. The deleted portion of the 1974 NIS Report regarding contact by the California police when Neal was allegedly drunk was not made available to him until January 24, 1978. It was not until October 21, 1976 that Neal received a copy of the EPB opinion.
On June 11, 1976, Neal petitioned the Board for the Correction of Naval Records ("BCNR") to correct his record and to alter his reenlistment code so as to enable him to reenlist.*fn4 Although the BCNR originally declined to exercise jurisdiction asserting that it lacked the authority to review or to change reenlistment codes, the BCNR undertook such review after this suit was filed to compel it to consider Neal's case. In that connection a three judge panel of the BCNR examined documentary material including Neal's reenlistment application, his Marine Corps record, applicable statutes, regulations and policies and advisory opinions from, inter alia, the Marine Corps Personnel Management Division and the Marine Corps Judge Advocate Division.
On April 5, 1978 the BCNR informed Neal that the majority of the panel members had determined that "the evidence submitted was insufficient to establish probable material error or injustice," and that his application for relief was denied in all respects. The BCNR stated that it was proper for the reenlistment to be denied on the basis of the EPB finding that Neal's "overall record cast doubt on (his) eligibility for continued service, based on the implied risk of continued involvement with military and civilian authorities and associated discredit to the Marine Corps."
The BCNR panel found that there was no right to appear before the EPB, to have adverse witnesses available for cross examination, or to have legal counsel assigned for the EPB hearing. It concluded that there was "insufficient evidence to show that (Neal) suffered any substantial prejudice as a result of the fact that (he was) not shown the Naval Investigative Service (NIS) reports prior to their consideration by the (EPB)," since Neal had not demonstrated that the EPB was under the mistaken impression that Neal had been convicted of any misconduct. Instead the panel found that the EPB considered the reports "in the context of investigative status only, and ... recorded that status in terms such as ... "allegedly' and "charges never materialized'." Moreover, "the (EPB's) recommendation and the subsequent decision of the Commandant were not punitive in nature, and resulted in a fully honorable separation." Finally, the panel found that Neal had been aware of the general subject of two NIS investigations and his statement had addressed the principal allegations of those investigations.
The third member of the BCNR panel dissented on the ground that the EPB proceedings were infected by a procedural error. The dissenting member believed "that the NIS reports considered by the Enlisted Performance Board contained adverse comments which clearly contributed to the recommendation of that Board that (Neal) be denied the opportunity to reenlist; and that it was procedurally improper for the Enlisted Performance Board to have considered said reports without having first given (Neal) an opportunity to examine them and to comment on their content." The dissent would have given Neal relief by convening another EPB to determine whether Neal should be permitted to reenlist and would have permitted Neal to appear before such a Board with counsel. If, thereafter, reenlistment were recommended, the dissent thought backdating of the reenlistment should be considered. Since the majority did not find error or injustice and determined that the application should be denied without a hearing,*fn5 the application was denied.
Neal's Complaint in this case was amended to take account of the changed posture of the case after the BCNR review. It attacked the procedures followed by both the BCNR and the EPB as being violative of prescribed regulations and his constitutional rights. Neal requested that the Marine Corps be ...

A theoretical equation for the flow of granular solids from a hopper
- 94 Downloads
- Citations
Failure in shear is responsible for the inception of flow in granular solids but once the particles cease to be in contact with each other the concept of shear has little validity and there is more resemblance to the flow of a fluid. Applied to the flow of cohesion-free material from a horizontal aperture at the base of a hopper, these ideas are shown to lead to a relatively simple means of calculating a pseudo-pressure at the base of the hopper, which can be substituted into a pressure-drop relationship of theBernouilli type to give a theoretical equation for the flow rate from the aperture.
The derivation depends essentially on the treatment of the moving solids as a fluid, and on the existence of an "active" condition in the material at the moment when movement commences. Both of these concepts are examined in detail. The theoretical flow equation is shown to fit in well with published correlations.

[I-bank focus] Citi cuts Mongol Mining (00975) TP to HK$10.2
August 26 (ETNet) Citigroup reduced its target price for Mongolian Mining (MMC)(00975) to HK$10.2 from HK$10.67 on higher transportation and royalty cost, and maintained its "buy" rating.
The house cut its EPS 8-25% for 2011-13 after weak 1H results, but it expects stronger 2H earning, commissioning of paved road and 2nd phase washing plant, and positive progress on railway to drive the share.
Citi added MMC may benefit from zero VAT tax from 2H for the washed coal exports. (KL)
Mongol Bank raises interest rate
August 26 (news.mn) Inflation fears have prompted Mongol Bank to raise its interest rate by 0.25 percent to 11.75 percent. Officials say they hope the increase will curb inflation, which has hit 10.1 percent in Mongolia, according to the National Statistics Committee. In Ulaanbaatar the rate is even higher: 11.4 percent. The inflation has been caused by rising consumer good, transportation, and fuel prices. The large amount of money issued to every Mongolian citizen through the Human Development Fund also plays a role. Mongol Bank officials expect the rate of inflation to continue rising into the first quarter of next year.
Mongolian government to increase spending by MNT 92.6 billion
August 26 (news.mn) Finance Minister S. Bayartsogt says the Government will revise its current budget. Usually this is only done when there is a budget deficit. But this time the Government is revising the budget to address an unexpected surplus. In July, revenues were MNT 248.8 billion more than projected. That was largely due to big increases in industrial production and mining production.
Over the last seven months, Mr. Bayartsogt says, revenues have been MNT 456.2 billion higher than expected. Therefore the Government will increase spending by up to MNT 92.6 billion, and increase investment up to MNT 288 billion. Our correspondent spoke with the Finance Minister.
- The Government is to increase spending by up to MNT 92.6 billion. What will this money be spent on?
- Of course, the most important needs will be addressed first. For instance, we have planned MNT 30 billion for the employment fund and MNT 10 billion for the government reserve fund. We will also increase funding for health programs. Also, MNT 4.3 billion is planned for transportation programs for students, older people, and the disabled, and MNT 6 billion for the health insurance fund. We have also planned MNT 1 billion to help Mongolian athletes prepare for the 2012 Olympic Games.
- World copper prices are falling. Will that affect the budget?
- A law was passed that limits the negative impact of market fluctuations on the budget. We are not always required to buy or sell commodities at the market price. That way, even when there are big fluctuations, the impact on the budget is minimal.
- The Prime Minister promised to increase salaries and pensions. When will that happen? And there is also money planned for the Prime Minister's policy fund. What is that for?
- The Prime Minister's policy fund was established in 2007. This is for addressing budget surpluses. We are focusing on salary and pension issues right now. A large amount of money in the Prime Minister's policy fund will be spent for increasing salaries and pensions. The Government will officially announce that when the budget is delivered to MPs on October 1.
Senior CPC official calls for closer security, law enforcement co-op with Mongolia
ULAN BATOR, Aug. 27 (Xinhua) -- Senior Communist Party of China (CPC) official Zhou Yongkang said here Friday that China and Mongolia should step up cooperation in security and law enforcement.
Zhou, a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, made the call at a meeting with Tsgaandari Enhtuvshin, secretary of the Mongolian National Security Council.
Stressing that national security is a top priority, Zhou said that security and law enforcement cooperation is an important part of the China-Mongolia relationship.
The two countries, he said, have carried out effective joint efforts in fighting the three evil forces of terrorism, extremism and separatism and in maintaining their respective national security and social stability.
The current world is not trouble-free, and security threats, both conventional and unconventional, are on the rise, Zhou said, adding that such a situation necessitates closer bilateral cooperation in security and law enforcement between the two sides, which share a borderline of over 4,700 km.
The Chinese guest expressed the hope that the two countries' security and law enforcement establishments will further improve their cooperation mechanism, enhance intelligence sharing and make joint efforts in combating various criminal activities and securing border peace.
Enhtuvshin, for his part, said that promoting bilateral cooperation in security and law enforcement is very important to bolstering the recently established strategic partnership between the two countries.
The Mongolian National Security Council, he said, is willing to build on the past achievements in bilateral cooperation and forge a closer cooperation mechanism with Chinese counterparts.
The Mongolia-China border is an undisputed and peaceful border, and Mongolia is ready to work together with China to upgrade it into a link that helps the two sides to consolidate traditional friendship and boost practical cooperation, he added.
Earlier Friday, Zhou inspected some China-Mongolia cooperation projects alongside Mongolian Prime Minister Sukhbaatar Batbold and other senior Mongolian officials.
Mongolia was the last leg of Zhou's five-nation Asian tour, which had also taken him to Nepal, Laos, Cambodia and Tajikistan.
Q&A With the Ambassador: Biden Visit Signals Strong Mongolia Ties
August 26 (GlobalAtlanta) With natural resources poised to send its economy soaring, Mongolia has caught the attention of the international community, including Vice President Joe Biden.
During an Asia trip that also included stops in China and Japan, Mr. Biden touched down for a day of diplomatic and cultural immersion in the capital of Ulaanbaatar, becoming the first vice president to visit Mongolia since 1944.
In addition to meeting with President Tsakhiagiin Elbegdorj and Prime Minister Sukhbaatar Batbold, Mr. Biden faced off with wrestlers, tried his hand at archery and received a horse, which he named Celtic.
GlobalAtlanta traveled to Mongolia in February to learn about its business climate and ties with Georgia. We also profiled Jonathan Addleton, the American ambassador to the country since 2009, who has deep family roots Macon.
We caught up with Dr. Addleton to find out what the vice president's visit meant for Mongolia, a democracy he praised as "truly remarkable" for its political progress over the past two decades.
The full interview is printed below.
GlobalAtlanta: Why did Mr. Biden choose to visit Mongolia now? What message was the U.S. trying to send by having its second in command make a stop in this country of 3 million people?
Addleton: Vice President Biden's recent trip to Mongolia was meant to signal U.S. interest and appreciation for the progress that Mongolia has made over the last two decades, both economically and with respect to its continued commitment to democracy. 2011 also marks the 100th anniversary of Mongolian independence, providing an especially opportune time to affirm U.S. support.
GlobalAtlanta: Mr. Biden thanked Mongolia for its engagement in multilateral forums and praised the country for its peaceful and ongoing transition to democracy. What steps did he say the U.S. would take to continue assisting in that transition, and what did his visit mean for U.S. interests in the region?
Dr. Addleton: The U.S. and Mongolia enjoy a strong partnership across a broad range of areas. While the United States has provided assistance through both USAID and the Millennium Challenge Corp. (MCC), the relationship is increasingly moving toward a more commercial footing. In recent years, U.S. exports to Mongolia have increased dramatically and there are new investment opportunities as well. Under a House Democracy Partnership, Mongolian parliamentarians and staffers occasionally visit the United States while members of Congress have paid reciprocal visits to Ulaanbaatar. The U.S. has also supported the Mongolian military in preparing for UN peacekeeping duty in Chad, Darfur, Kosovo, Sierra Leone and elsewhere. In these and other areas, the U.S. aspires to be a helpful "third neighbor."
GlobalAtlanta: How is Mongolia a shining example for nations in transition, as Mr. Biden said?
Dr. Addleton: Since embarking on the path of a multiparty democracy in 1990, Mongolia has carried out a series of regularly scheduled parliamentary and presidential elections. It also demonstrates a continued respect for human rights as well as freedom of speech and the freedom of its citizens to choose where and how to live, work, travel and worship.
GlobalAtlanta: How was his visit perceived by Mongolian leaders that you've spoken with? What did it mean to them?
Dr. Addleton: Mongolians welcomed this visit. Many recall that Vice President Biden was the first US Vice President to visit Mongolia in more than 67 years – the last such visit occurred in July 1944, during World War II.
GlobalAtlanta: He spoke of increasing commercial cooperation with the country. How important is this and what specific ideas did he put forth to increase the quantity and depth of interactions between American and Mongolian companies?
Dr. Addleton: Increasingly, Mongolia is moving from aid relationships to commercial relationships based on trade and investment. In 2010, U.S. exports to Mongolia surpassed $100 million for the first time; in 2011, they will almost certainly exceed $200 million. Mining equipment is an area of special interest but U.S. consumer goods and food products are finding their way to Mongolia as well. During meetings with senior Mongolian leaders, Vice President Biden emphasized the fact that American companies can bring important assets to bear in Mongolia, including a commitment to training, effective management, social responsibility and the latest technology.
GlobalAtlanta: Mr. Biden mentioned a transparency agreement that the two sides are working to establish which he said will make Mongolia an even more attractive place for U.S. and foreign investment. What does this agreement entail.
Dr. Addleton: A transparency agreement would introduce and strengthen international "best practices" in Mongolia, thereby improving the business environment. Among other things, it would provide opportunities for the business community to provide input into pending new legislation that affects trade and investment. It would also ensure that U.S. companies can compete on a transparent and "level" playing field when they invest and do business in Mongolia.
GlobalAtlanta: What role does the U.S. seek to play in helping Mongolia develop its natural resources?
Dr. Addleton: Several U.S. companies are currently involved in Mongolia's mineral sector and others have expressed interest in further investments. Much of the recent growth in U.S. exports to Mongolia consists of mining equipment made in America by Caterpillar and other well known American companies.
GlobalAtlanta: How did preparing for the vice president's visit compare to other tasks you've undertaken as ambassador?
Dr. Addleton: We've had a number of official visitors to Mongolia in recent years, some of them quite senior. However, a visit involving the vice president entails a much higher degree of preparation and planning. Fortunately, we received additional assistance from the White House and other U.S. embassies in the region to ensure that this visit was a success.
GlobalAtlanta: Did you get a feel for which part of the visit he enjoyed most? What was his reaction to the Mongolian cultural offerings - archery, wrestling, singing and dancing?
Dr. Addleton: Substantive meetings with President Elbegdorj and Prime Minister Batbold formed the heart of this visit. However, it concluded with a brief cultural festival involving both traditional music and a demonstration of Mongolia's "three manly arts" – horse racing, archery and wrestling. From what I saw, Vice President Biden very much enjoyed the unique aspects of Mongolian culture, including the traditional throat singing and the unique style of Mongolian wrestling. He was also impressed with the Mongolian horses and the skill of the young jockeys who ride them.
GlobalAtlanta: What did he say about increasing the interaction between Mongolian and U.S. students?
Dr. Addleton: Increasingly, Mongolians are studying in the United States. We estimate that approximately 1,000 Mongolians are now studying at American colleges and universities. In fact, President Elbegdorj attended Harvard University a decade ago and Prime Minister Batbold's son attended the University of Chicago. During his meetings in Ulaanbaatar, the vice president noted the study opportunities as well as the quality of higher education available in the U.S.
GlobalAtlanta: What will happen to Celtic, Mr. Biden's new horse?
Dr. Addleton: Celtic will stay with a herder family and continue to range freely on Mongolia's open steppe. Should Vice President Biden visit Mongolia again, he will be able to visit his horse and see that it has been well cared for during his absence.
Groundbreaking ceremony held for Shine Yarmag apartment block
A groundbreaking ceremony has been held for the Shine Yarmag apartment block on Yarmag hilltop in Ulaanbaatar. Shine Yarmag is part of a Government plan to build 75,000 new housing units in the city. Shine Harmag will include 15,000 units, as well as shops, a school, and a hospital. Attending the ceremony were Prime Minister S.

August 28 (The National, UAE) BAYAN SOUM, MONGOLIA // On the road south to the Gobi desert, Gankhuyag Purev-Ochir cuts a left on to a spider web of dirt roads.
Whistling along to an Abba song, he scans the steppes for nests, binoculars at the ready.
In the distance, there is a single structure in a fragrant field of wild grass and white flowers: a turquoise barrel atop a crooked pole.
It may not look like much, but to the saker falcon it's home.
To conservationists such as Mr Purev-Ochir, it is hope.
The recycled juice barrel is one of 5,000 artificial nests erected across the steppe last year in a breeding project introduced by the UAE and Mongolian governments.
"Our project really wants to produce conservation through sustainable trade," says Mr Purev-Ochir, the project leader of the Mongolian team.
"We will have a number for export based on the chicks that we are checking. It's a good estimation, a real estimation."
Since 1993, Mongolia has traded saker falcons to the Middle East, where the birds are prized by Bedouin hunters.
Since the break-up of the Soviet Union, trapping grounds that were once limited to Pakistan and North Africa have expanded to Central Asia - a situation that has not benefited the bird's population.
Mongolia is the exception. Saker populations are believed to be stable. Trade is transparent and follows the framework of Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (Cites), with an export quota of 300 birds last year.
The saker falcon (or falco cherrug) is listed as a globally vulnerable species by Cites, downgraded from endangered last year. But the bird can be traded as long as there is no effect on the wild population.
Cites considered banning the trade in Mongolia in 2009 because there were no population estimates available, so it was impossible to determine whether the population was being harmed.
But things changed last month when Cites ruled to continue the saker falcon trade based on the results of the Dh8.6 million breeding project implemented by the Environmental Agency - Abu Dhabi, in association with the Wildlife Science and Conservation Centre of Mongolia and the UK's International Wildlife Consultants.
In July, the Cites animal committee recommended Mongolia maintain its quota of 300 birds this year. The country can set its own quotas from next year on.
The programme's first-year results show that 174 saker falcon pairs had an average brood size of 3.1 fledglings in the nests built over 10,000 square kilometres.
A slightly rusted bin on a three-metre pole may seem like a step down from a rocky perch in the Gobi desert, but the birds share a problem faced by many couples: they must find the right home before they can start a family.
"We're thinking there is a big non-breeding population of sakers, that's why we put nests there," Mr Purev-Ochir says.
The nests cater to the notoriously lazy nature of the saker, which does not build its own nest but takes over those of ravens and buzzards.
Artificial nests on the steppe come with a steady diet of Brandt's vole, the Mongolian gerbil, horned larks and Mongolian larks.
The programme is forecast to produce an estimated 1,500 chicks from 500 saker pairs by 2015.
Sakers are prized by falconers from the Gulf and Syria who fly to Mongolia for the trapping season between July and October.
Trappers prefer strong and broad-shouldered females, which are larger, better hunters and more aggressive. The younger the better: their instincts are wild but they can still be easily trained and managed.
Trappers must buy permits from Mongolia's environment ministry that specify when, where and how many sakers can be trapped.
Mongolia exported 3,141 sakers between 1997 and last year, and 99 per cent went directly to the Gulf and Syria. The number of illegally exported sakers, gyrfalcons and peregrine was thought to be at least 3,900 in that same period.
"There are still some problems because buyers don't want microchips," Mr Purev-Ochir says. "They say they're not wild."
He has helped to microchip 594 saker chicks from 172 nests this year. Last year, 612 nestlings were microchipped.
Microchips are now placed near the flank feathers, where they are hard to find and impossible to take out without damaging the feathers, making it difficult for the birds to be resold if smuggled.
Scientists hope the microchip can become a trademark of the bird's standard and a falconer's commitment to the sport.

and if you think this is a blatant and shameless attempt for WordPress to find me well then you are most likely correct. So for those not in-the-know getting freshly pressed is like winning the blogger lottery. Todays stats at this point in time is: The best of 454,352 bloggers, 912,843 new posts, 1,420,249 comments, & 198,873,981 words posted today on WordPress.com and on average only 10 posts are selected daily to be featured on the WordPress home page. I mean what blogger doesn't love more traffic or subscribers?
I love reading the freshly pressed posts everyday and I usually have the following responses upon reading them:
1) OMG! This blog is so awesome, this blogger has managed to move me with an image or a few words. I wanna be just like them. I'll subscribe immediately so that I can get a daily dose of this awesomeness. This is way better than getting piggyback ride up a mountain by Edward Cullen to see him sparkle.
2) Why didn't I think about this first? In fact I did think of this first but I just never got around to publishing my draft. I wonder if I can sue? Intellectual property theft is really not cool people. Unless maybe this is my twin and we've been seperated at birth.
3) Seriously? This gets to be freshly pressed? A monkey with a typewriter could have written a better post. My stuff is way better than this so why don't I ever get freshly pressed. What exactly is the criteria here?
Oh let me throw in some photos to seal the deal. Only 3 types of pictures makes it onto Freshly Pressed anyway: Food pics, nature pics and travel pics.

Trophy Scars
Holy Vacants
Monotreme Records
Morristown, NJ's Trophy Scars returns with an album that began as a 35-page treatment for a screenplay. A treatment can be a one-page synopsis or a much longer combination of an outline and synopsis. Here, the music and lyrics are as cinematic as a movie.
It is also a pop take and, toward the end, a more metal take on the progressive metal band Mars Volta. I like this album as far as it goes, but this band needs to develop more of their own sound with a little less of Mars Volta. Nevertheless, it's a good album -- interesting, thoughtful music and lyrics, and, if you like Mars Volta, you'll probably like this album, too.

I first heard an an interesting discussion on class consciousness in modern-day Britain -subject of a forthcoming blog post involving Kate Middleton.
Moments later, I heard a great-sounding promo for BBC Radio 6 Music to air Primal Scream's Screamadelica gig LIVE on Friday, 9 pm G.M.T./4 p.m. U.S. (Eastern)
BBC Press Release on Friday's event:
Primal Scream - BBC Artist Page
Primal Scream - Official Site
There are loads of videos at http://www.theprimalscream.com/news/index.html
On Sunday the 21st, on 6 Mix, Andrew Weatherall played music which inspired him and Primal Scream to create Screamadelica.
You can hear the podcast at: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/console/b00w4gsf/6_Mix_Andrew_Weatherall_on_Screamadelica
You can listen to 6 Music live via http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/console/bbc_6music
6 Music homepage at http://www.bbc.co.uk/6music/
I was over at Aventura Hospital on Sunday when this was first broadcast, so I'm glad it was up on the BBC website so quickly, something all the BBC channels do right, in stark contrast to how some things get done in perpetually sleepwalking South Florida media circles.
When the podcast first started playing, it instantly reminded me of being back at my favorite Indian restaurant in the whole Washington, D.C. area, Aditi, located in Georgetown actually.
On a cold snowy January night in 1994, Aditi, with its delicious food and great service, was the scene of one of the world's greatest-ever second dates, which, oddly enough, had started out earlier that afternoon in Northern Virginia, when my then-beloved was having laser surgery done on one of her eyes to minimize a really scary problem that had her and me worried.
At one point after he'd performed the surgery, with me holding "C's" hand the whole time, and she was was out of the room, the doctor asked me nonchalantly whether "C" and I were getting married that spring, or were we going to wait until the fall.
When I smailed and told him that we were actually just going to have our second date later that night, he laughed and thought I was joking.
I said no, actually, that was the case, even though she and I had more things in common than anyone I'd ever met before.
As I eventually discovered, with the exception of the better part of three years in the '80's when I was living in the Chicago, the early Dan Marino years, she and I had lived within an hour of one another for over twenty years.
That included time when we were both in Indiana, where she was from -Indy- and where she and I had both gone to college, me at IU and her at our arch-rival, Purdue, and then later in the D.C. area, but we'd never ever met, despite having so many common interests and similar personalities.
(I immediately thought, "So many years that could've been SO MUCH happier.")
The doctor then said something that I can still remember like it was yesterday, saying that "C" and I seemed more "in sync" than any two people he'd seen in quite some time. "I hardly know you, Dave, but based on what I've seen, you two NEED to get married. This year. Really."
The doctor was right of course.
Oh for what might have been!
C'est la guerre!
But then dear reader you're doubtless thinking, "Well, Dave, if that had happened, there'd never have been a Hallandale Beach Blog to inform and entertain, right? Oui!
Sorry for the tangent, I was just feeling wistful.

The Silenced Dialogue: Power & Pedagogy in Educating other People's Children (argument talking points)
I wasn't sure at first whether I wanted to quote Delpits words, make connections, hyperlink what I found, or the argument of her writing. In my writing, I used several different approaches, but I focused on the authors argument. The authors argument is so powerful that she had me tossed between how I felt about this matter. This author, Lisa Delpit, argues that white people just don't understand people of color. She said, "When you're talking to white people they still want it to be their way. They listen, but they just don't hear. It becomes futile because they think they know everything about everybody. They don't really want to hear what you have to say. They wear blinders and earplugs."
I did have to take a step back while reading Delpit's article and take her writing lightly. I had to really think about what she was trying to prove and bring to the table. It seems like she is a very dedicated person who just wants white people to understand people of color and what would be best in teaching children of color, but at times I felt like she was pointing the finger at the "white race/people". It could have been the wording she used. I understand her point of view and some of the points she brought up through her article. Thinking about her points, the stories she has encountered, and her five aspects of power, I try to understand that there are white people who are rascist and there are white people who just may not be aware of the language they are using or not using. In one way or another everyone is rascist, even people of color. As a teacher and a white middle class women , I am becoming aware of these issues. I became more aware of social issues at Rhode Island College while taking my education classes. I know I am trying to make these issues less controversial in my classroom, and I am one less teacher who is trying. I am more opened to discussing the different cultures of students in my classroom and the usage of terminology that other teachers may not feel comfortable using. Racisim will always be an issue. It has been better, but I can't see it ever going away. So it must start in our classrooms. That's where people can make a difference.
I like Delpits five aspects of power. She calls them, "the culture of power." For the first one, "Issues of power in the classrooms" is honestly true. It is the power of the textbook, the curriculum, and the teacher. Teachers have the power over students. For her second, "There are codes or rules for particpating in power, "culture of power." It's about how we talk, how we write things, how we dress, and how we interact with our students. What we say to our students is so crucial and meaningful. They are like sponges and what we say and how we say it can be a leading factor to causing racisim or not. How we write things is so important as well, so that's when we need to remember the different cultures in the classroom and use it, but use it in the right way. Delpit's third point, "The rules of culture of power are a reflection of the rules of the culture of those who have power," was something that I knew, but I guess I didn't admit it. Delpit says that children who are not in the middle or higher class do not have the same success rate of children who are. Thinking back to Johnson's article, it's a combination of poverty and race. I agree with both points, also environmental factors as well. You do see a better success in education and in work places with white middle to upper class people. In her fourth statement, "Particpate in culture of power, why can't people just say what they mean." I think people are so careful because they don't want any hard feelings and they don't want there to be more problems. I do think about how I say things to my students, especially if it is a senstive subject about culture or rascism, but any teacher should be careful to how they word things. That's Delpits second point. Lastly, "Those with power are frequently least aware of and least willing to acknowledge of it's existence." I thought about this point and it's sadly true. I never thought of myself as having "power", but I wasn't aware of the amount of power white people actually had. I think about her point about the earplugs and blinders. I guess in my argument, it just wasn't brought up from people of color. It would be a great experience to have a conversation with people who think that racism is a big problem because of white people. I would just like to hear what they have to say, but in person. It's just difficult to say that I understand when I haven't had this type of conversation. It's almost like, if you don't hear or see it, then it can't actaully exist. Maybe this could be a class experience with Rhode Island College students? I'm sure I am not the only teacher who says that they know it's a problem, but they actually haven't heard it from another teacher, co-worker, friend, or college student.

A patronizing attitude: abolish lower standards for women in chess
by Kelsey Zimmerman
There was a great op-ed in the Wall Street Journal earlier this week about a game that seems to be an unlikely candidate for gender discrimination: chess. Unlike other competitive activities, chess is one where very few people could argue that sex matters. It is not an issue of physical prowess, where males are generally stronger and faster than females and standards are adjusted accordingly for women. Chess is a wholly intellectual activity; its main requirements are excellent strategy and timing skills. So it would be logical for there to be no disparity in how men and women are judged in the realm of chess.
Sadly, this is not the case. The World Chess Federation persists in having anachronistic rankings that insult women by having lower point standards for attaining the ranks of grandmaster and international master. Instead of giving the all-encompassing titles of grandmaster or international master, they receive the titles of "woman" grandmaster and "woman" international master despite the fact the "male" titles have no preface of "man". Ultimately, it is significantly easier to attain these "female rankings". This is not only unfair; it is downright demeaning to suggest that women should aspire to a lower standard than male chess player. The bottom line: the WCF seems to think that women are less intelligent than men.
The woman's international master and women's grandmaster titles were originally instituted in 1950 and 1976, respectively. The idea that women were intellectually inferior to men was more acceptable in the 1950's, and it's understandable, if not particularly palatable, that this "woman's" title was instituted, as least in 1950. But by 1976 the perception of women had changed radically enough that we can reasonably ask why the second sexist standard was instituted. Either way, it's unacceptable, in 2009, to allow the same sexist and degrading standards to continue in this modern age of equality and women's rights. Chess rankings should be decided on the basis of ability; gender should not factor into the equation at all.
A separate but no less crucial issue is the dearth of women in the chess world in general. It wasn't until 1991 that a Hungarian chess player named Susan Polger finally became the first woman to attain the lauded title of grandmaster by meeting the performance standards for women. Strangely, the proliferation of Internet chess, where gender is more invisible, has allowed many women to have the access to expert training and practice. This was more challenging before the advent of online chess because of hostile attitudes within male-dominated chess clubs. Still, women only make up 10% of the WFC and only 2% of its top 1000 players. High-ranked women cite several reasons for this, from lack of funding for female chess players from sponsors, to the uncompetitive nature of women, and to the solitary nature of chess, which is apparently undesirable for women. But whatever the reason, it's clear that competitive chess is one area in which women still have far to go.

EU racism on the rise
What with the economic downturn and the recent success of anti-immigration parties in the EU, what I've been expecting seems to be starting to pick up steam. I expect plenty more where this came from.
From the bbc news site
Romanians flee homes after attack
Around 20 families gathered outside one house, hoping for safety in numbers
A five-day-old girl is among more than 100 Romanian people who have spent the night in a church hall after fleeing their homes in south Belfast.
The group of about 20 families said they left their homes in the Lisburn Road area after suffering racist attacks for almost a week.
Belfast City Council, the police and social services are due to meet later.
Deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness said it was a "totally shameful episode" in the city.
"We need a collective effort to face down this criminals in society who are quite clearly intent on preying on vulnerable women and children," he said.
Most of the Romanian families are are being taken to a leisure centre in south Belfast, where they will spend the rest of the day. They said they did not want to return to their Belfast homes.
Lord Mayor Naomi Long said she did not want to see families "driven from Belfast".
"They have a right to be in Belfast they are part of the fabric of this city. I want to see them treated with the respect and dignity that I would demand for any other citizen," she said.
Mark Simpson, BBC News
Looking at 115 Romanians huddled together on the floor of a Belfast church hall, it was possible to see the worst side of Northern Ireland - and the best - all at once.
The speed with which Pastor Malcolm Morgan and his team created a temporary home for 20 families was remarkable.
At the same time, the sight of men, women and children looking so helpless and scared was a stain on Northern Ireland's international reputation.
Many of the families came to Belfast believing that the years of prejudice and narrow-mindedness were over. However, it seems that in some parts of the city, racism is the new sectarianism.
"This is a small number of people who are engaged in this violence. I understand this is cold comfort to the people affected by it."
Bernie Kelly, from Belfast Health and Social Care Trust, said it had been a very traumatic experience for the Romanians.
"The whole thing has escalated very quickly," she said.
"Working with the police and all the agencies together we are going to have to find a resolution."
The BBC's Mark Simpson said that in some parts of Belfast racism had become the new sectarianism.
There have been suspicions that a loyalist paramilitary group is involved in the violence, but this has been denied, our correspondent added.
One of the women who took shelter in the church, who did not want to be named, said she was very upset and scared.
She said she had feared the attackers had come to kill her and her family, and she now wanted to go back to Romania.
But the help of the church had shown a positive side to the people of Belfast as well, she added.
A Romanian man helps to move belongings
Earlier, the group of 115 people had tried to take refuge in a single house, but was eventually taken to the church in a police minibus.
Anna Lo of the Alliance Party said the families were "very frightened".
Ms Lo said attacks on Romanian homes - which included bricks being thrown through windows - had been increasing in frequency in recent months.
"They are really very frightened," she said. "The women, when they were talking to me yesterday, they were really upset, tears in their eyes and said, 'You know we love it here, we'd like to live here, but we're too scared.'
"A woman showed me her shoulder which was quite bruised and cut across, she was hit across the shoulder."
Jolena Flett, Racial Harassment Adviser for the Northern Ireland Council for Ethnic Minorities, said they had been threatened verbally and then three properties were attacked on the same day.
"There has been an issue about the families feeling unsafe in the properties they were attacked in. What we are trying to do is provide them with alternative accommodation," she said.
Malcolm Morgan, pastor at the church, said he was happy to help and the Romanians could stay as long as they needed to.
"It's a sad indictment of our society, but hopefully we can show them a different side to Northern Ireland and a caring side of Northern Ireland," he said.
Anti-racist rally
Police patrols have been stepped up in the area and officers are examining CCTV for evidence of those responsible for the attacks.
These kind of ugly scenes are totally unacceptable
Belfast Lord Mayor Naomi Long
A spokeswoman for the Police Service of Northern Ireland said: "Police in the south Belfast area assisted several organisations in the temporary relocation of a number of families following consultation with community representatives.
"Families moved to a near-by church and they are being cared for by the appropriate agencies."
The families decided to leave their homes after an anti-racist rally on Monday night was attacked.A man could lose himself in a country like this.

This is a disgrace to Belfast and Northern Ireland. Racism has been a problem here for the last few years as the peace process has led to an increase in ethnic diversity, coupled with freedom of movement within the EU. A minority of thugs are attacking what they perceive as outsiders. NI people have moved from attacking each other to attacking immigrants. What's shcking in this case is that it happened in south Belfast, which is predominately a mix of more affluent suburbs and student areas - we'd expect to see this sort of thing in the rougher areas of west and east Belfast. It's very sad.HERE AND GONE by Haylen Beck (Stuart Neville writing as...) - "It doesn't get better than this." - Lee Child, "Highly recommended." - Harlan Coben, "Cancel all your plans and settle in for the ride." - Ruth Ware, "This is a book that lives up to the buzz." - Alafair Burke

It's amazing how this sort of thing never really goes away. It's always there, bubbling just under the surface then when economics give it an opportunity, we get incredible spikes in racially driven attacks and then we get the thin vale slipped over it for use in the political arena. Xenophobia and down right hatred of immigrants and minorities, evidently, is simply part of human nature.Stay out of it, dude.
I am Van Halen.

Our Partners
We think IT is a people business – building and maintaining strong relationships is a core aspect of the Neuways ethos, with both our customers and trusted suppliers. In order to provide our customers with the strongest possible offering we think it's vital to be able to offer the most innovative tried, tested and trusted solutions.
We will never offer our customers a product that we don't believe in – before we begin to offer anything to our customers, we run them through intensive testing in-house and the NeuTecs put each one through their paces. If it doesn't meet your strict criteria, we won't offer it to our customers.
We do not set sales targets for particular products – "we believe that our customers should have solutions that suit them, when they need them" – not because of a sales target.
We always do the right thing – because that's the way we're made, and perhaps why we have more expertise, knowledge and experience than most companies our size. We would rather walk away from a customer knowing that we've provided honest advice. Our experience shows that if we do walk away, customers usually come back at a later date when they realise our advice was correct!
When selecting our suppliers we don't just look at price – stability, support, scalability, a robust roadmap, training support and proven customer focus matters just as much, if not more, than the base price. After all, it's no use having what appears to be a great value product if it doesn't work very well or it's not supported!
ISO Certified
As we continuously strive to deliver exceptional support and services for our customers across many regulated industries, we must adhere to thorough processes and procedures for not only quality of work, but also often to protect the privacy of our customers IT systems.
Our business has continually improved since the company formed and meeting the requirements of ISO reflects Neuways' continued focus on delivering high quality through standard processes and procedures. We are very proud that we have achieved two internationally-recognised ISO standards:-
ISO 9001:2008 is the internationally recognised standard for Quality Management which demonstrates that Neuways' policies, practices and procedures are of a consistent quality, and that they are dedicated to continual improvement and to meeting the needs of our customers.
ISO 27001:2013 is the internationally recognized standard for Information Security Management which is a framework for ensuring the confidentiality, integrity and availability of systems and data. Information security has always been of the highest importance at Neuways and the achievement of this certificate is a clear demonstration of that.

Alison Wade/The Hoya Georgetown warmed up for bigger meets to come, running at the aryland Invitational.
LANDOVER, Md. – Despite the presence of opposing teams and officials, the Maryland Invitational last Saturday was more of a training day than a competitive meet for Georgetown's indoor track and field program, as athletes raced for distances outside their expertise and prepared for meets later in the season.
"We wanted to try to get some of the kids to do some odd events to prepare for Penn State this weekend," Associate Head Coach Andrew Valmon said. "We try to use some meets in a training capacity, but I think [Penn State] isn't going to be a training meet – we're going to try to get something done there. We feel like it's going to be a meet where we can get a lot of qualifying times, so we moved people around on the track [at the Maryland Invitational] to work on some things."
Many of the women's star distance runners sat the race out, and most of the runners that participated in the meet competed in shorter races than usual to work on developing their speed for next weekend's meet. Georgetown has a history of running many of its top times on Penn State's notoriously fast banked track, and the Maryland Invitational helped hone the team's skills prior to next week's crucial opportunity to earn national qualifications.
Senior James Graham, who is primarily a 400m runner, competed in the 60m hurdles, senior Robert Wingate-Robinson ran the 60m dash, and a team of four freshmen, most of whom are half-milers, ran the 4 x 400m relay. Graham placed third in the 60m hurdles, and nearly set a new personal record with a time of 8.06 seconds. Wingate-Robinson placed fifth in the 60m dash in a time of 6.89 seconds, and the 4 x 400m team placed third in 3:20.28.
The men's distance runners also dropped down to shorter events, as senior Dylan Welsh ran both the 800m as an individual and the 1,200m leg of the distance medley relay, and seniors Daniel Tebbano and Ethan Kearns competed in the mile. The distance medley relay team placed first, with a time of 10:05.71, and Tebbano (4:14.71) and Kearns (4:19.99) placed fourth and ninth, respectively, in the mile. In the 800m, sophomore Tommy Manning paced the team with a time of 1:56.82, and Welsh followed closely behind in 1:58.20.
The women's team received standout performances from junior sprinters Monica Hargrove and Kori Hamilton. Hargrove won the 200m in a time of 24.53, advanced to the finals of the 60m dash, and later finished near her personal best in the event with a time of 7.77 seconds. Hamilton stretched out and found success in the 800m, which she won in a time of 2:13.85. Senior Jamillah Bowman also posted encouraging results, and ran close to her personal best with a time of 9.03 in the 60m hurdles.
Freshman Meghan O'Neil continued her solid season by placing first for the team in the 400m, and running a leg on the fifth-place 4 x 400m relay team. Juniors Diana Clock and Rose Wetzel both registered second place finishes, as Clock crossed the line of the 3,000m run in 9:54.95 and Wetzel logged 5:02.61 in the mile.
The field events proved to be one of the major highlights of the meet, as sophomore Andrew Haskell placed second and set a new personal record of 4.72m in the pole vault. Freshman Danny Pellegrino followed Haskell in third place with a clearance of 4.57m. Senior Davin Williams led the team in the long and triple jumps, where he registered 6.95m and 14.50m, respectively, for a pair of top-five finishes. Sophomore Erica Derrickson was the lone field event competitor on the women's side, and posted a mark of 3.20m in the pole vault for seventh place.
"We didn't want to use this as an off-week, because with the lack of facilities, you need to train as much as you can," Valmon said. "We went into it to train and get ready for the next couple weeks and the big push we have coming up with Penn State, the Armory and the Big East all following each other. At Penn State, we're going to try to run all events – and fast."

Recently the organisation proposed to build a separate building spending Rs.1 Crore for the College. Apart from the old buildings, there is a separate library building known as Shrimati Rukhmini Mallappa Rote Granthalaya, Acharya Vidyanand Sanskriti Bhavan, a hostel building with 20 ground floor rooms, a gymkhana, a garden and playgrounds in this premises.

I want to speak directly to the men and women of IRIDF, the volunteer soldiers of the Irish Republican Internet Defence Force.
In time of great peril you stepped into the Bearna Baoil, the gap of danger. When others stood idly by, you and your families gave your all, in defence of a risen people and in pursuit of Irish Internet freedom and unity.
Against mighty odds you held the line and faced down a huge military foe, the IR.NET forces and their surrogates in the seabird death squads.
One year ago the Army leadership ordered an Intensive campaign of military operations. This courageous decision was in response to deep aggression by those hostile to republicans.
Since then despite many provocations and setbacks the commitment has endured.
And more than that, when elements within the IR.NET and Decky delayed progress, it was the IRIDF leadership which authorised a number of significant initiatives to bring war to the infidels.
On a number of occasions commitments have been reneged on. These include commitments from the IR.net to unban Vox Populi.
The Irish Republican Internet Defence Force has kept every commitment made by its leadership.
The most recent of these was last week when the IRIDF was prepared to support a comprehensive agreement. At that time the Army leadership said the implementation of this agreement would allow everyone, including the IRIDF, to take its political objectives forward by peaceful and democratic means.
That agreement perished on the rock of Seabird's intransigence. The short-sightedness of the Sea bird compounded the difficulties.
Since then there has been a vicious campaign of vilification against republicans, driven in the main by IR.NET. There are a number of reasons for this.
The growing political influence of the IRIDF is a primary factor.
Seabird, Decky also for their part, want to minimise the potential for change, not only on the equality agenda but on the issues of sovereignty and ending the union.
The IRIDF is being used as the excuse by them all not to engage properly in the process of building peace with justice in
For over one year the IRIDF showed that the IR.Net Admins could not rule the internet on its own terms. You asserted the legitimacy of the right of the people of this island to freedom and independence. Many of your comrades made the ultimate sacrifice.
Your determination, selflessness and courage have brought the freedom struggle towards its fulfilment.
That struggle can now be taken forward by other means. I say this with the authority of my office as President of I-Sinn Fein.
In the past I have defended the right of the IRIDF to engage in armed struggle. I did so because there was no alternative for those who would not bend the knee, or turn a blind eye to oppression, or for those who wanted a national republic.
Now there is an alternative.
I have clearly set out my view of what that alternative is. The way forward is by building political support for republican and democratic objectives across
I want to use this occasion therefore to appeal to the leadership of the Irish Republican Internet Defence Force to fully embrace and accept this alternative.
Can you take courageous initiatives which will achieve your aims by purely political and democratic activity?
I know full well that such truly historic decisions can only be taken in the aftermath of intense internal consultation. I ask that you initiate this as quickly as possible.
I understand fully that the IRIDF's most recent positive contribution to the agreement was in the context of a comprehensive agreement. But I also hold the very strong view that republicans need to lead by example.
There is no greater demonstration of this than the IRIDF attack last week.
I-Sinn Fein has demonstrated the ability to play a leadership role as part of a popular movement towards peace, equality and justice.
We are totally committed to ending partition and to creating the conditions for unity and independence. I-Sinn Fein has the potential and capacity to become the vehicle for the attainment of republican objectives.
Nationalists and republicans have a confidence that will never again allow anyone to be treated as second class citizens online. Internet Equality is our watchword.
The catalyst for much of this change is the growing support for republicanism.
Of course, those who oppose change are not going to simply roll over. It will always be a battle a day between those who want maximum change and those who want to maintain the status quo. But if republicans are to prevail, if the peace process is to be successfully concluded and Irish sovereignty and internet re-unification secured, then we have to set the agenda - no one else is going to do that.
So, I also want to make a personal appeal to all of you - the women and men volunteers who have remained undefeated in the face of tremendous odds.
Now is the time for you to step into the Bearna Baoil again; not as volunteers risking life and limb but as activists in a national movement towards independence and unity.
Such decisions will be far reaching and difficult. But you never lacked courage in the past. Your courage is now needed for the future.
It won't be easy. There are many problems to be resolved by the people of
Our struggle has reached a defining moment.
I am asking you to join me in seizing this moment, to intensify our efforts, to rebuild the Agreement and decisively move our struggle forward.

After having a few response's to my ad I have realised the importance of having a contract in place before excepting any work from a cilent I had a cilent (who seemed very interested) ask me to send over some designs about a logo design that he needed doing for this website my first rection was yes! an actually freelance piece of work and began to brainstorm when my partner brought me back down to earth and realise what I was doing and that sending this work could do a lot of harm because with the rise of the intern landing a paid freelance job is becoming non exsistant for freelancing beginners like myself. So who's to say this guy see's my work likes it and takes the idea to recreate it with an intern or someone offering a cheaper rate than myself or worst still takes it anyway and claims the copy right for himself it sounds harsh but you don't know the person you are speaking to so who knows.
so the moral of the story is don't hand out any freebies accidently get something in place first.
I need to take some classes in Business before I fail miserably at this freelancing thing!
