Queens finally broke their season-long league losing streak against Hamilton but they still couldn't beat Alex Neil's men.
The Doonhamers huffed and puffed but couldn't finish off the sluggish visitors despite creating plenty opportunities and were nearly punished severely for it.
However they had Zander Clark to thank in injury time with the loanee pulling off a world-class save from a Mickael Antoine-Curier header to secure the 1-1 draw.
Jim McIntyre said: "Both teams gave their all and credit must go to the players and I thought it was a thoroughly entertaining game – heart stopping at times.
"I thought we were excellent and started the game really well. I thought we were the better side in the first half and created a few clear-cut chances.
"But overall the response from the players after going behind was magnificent."
Queens lined up with the same starting 11 as the 3-1 home win over Dumbarton the previous week hoping to avoid four straight league losses to Hamilton this season.
It was a cagey start from both sides with 12 minutes on the clock before either keeper was troubled. And when the first chance did come the Accies goalie wasn't so much brought in to action as he was stranded after a rampaging Reilly latched onto a killer Paul Burns ball to round Kevin Cuthbert. Reilly's touch was heavy though and from an especially tight angle the young striker hit the outside of the post. Hamilton's first let off of the afternoon.
Neil's men had their first chance seven minutes later – it was an effort from nowhere but what a hit it was. Frenchman Anthony Andreu letting fly with a dipping shot from 25 yards which forced a stretching Clark into a top save.
Home striker Bob McHugh was forced off with a bloody nose midway through the half after being on the receiving end of a kick to the face from Grant Gillespie. He was off the park for five minutes but after a quick patch-up and a change of kit he was back on after five minutes with Hamilton unable to press home their man advantage.
They did force the next chance however with a long range Louis Longridge shot on 30 minutes but it was straight down the throat of a waiting Clark in the Queens goal.
Hamilton got their second let-off of the game with five minutes to go in the first half. Burns again with the defence splitting ball. This time it was a lofted left-foot ball into the path of Iain Russell who beat the defence with pure pace before letting fly with an unstoppable left foot drive which crashed off the corner of the bar and post. McHugh threw himself at the rebound but couldn't get over the ball with his header and the chance was gone.
At the break the question going around Palmerston was would Queens regret failing to take advantage of an off-colour Hamilton. Only time would tell and Hamilton came firing out the blocks for the second half.
James Keatings forcing a smart stop early on and then Ali Crawford saw a weak volley trundle through to Clark. Queens were still looking dangerous on the counter with the latter booked for taking out Russell on the charge.
But it was a yellow worth taking as within four minutes Accies were ahead and McIntyre would have been fuming at the way they got in front.
A Hamilton midfielder drove into the box as Queens backed off before finally getting a block in which led to an Accies corner. Keatings floated the ball in from the right hand side and standing unmarked in the six yard box was visiting skipper Martin Canning who easily nodded home.
So Queens had gone from likely scorers to being a goal behind - how would they react?
The answer was - excellently.
They had to survive one more close shave though first with veteran striker Jason Scotland getting in behind the two centre halfs. Luckily for Queens he didn't have pace to run away from the two defenders and between them they halted him on the edge of the box. Skipper Mark Durnan was adjudged to have made the final contact, picking up a booking for his troubles. Defender Jesus Garcia Tena smashed his free-kick off Mark Kerr to leave the Queens midfielder sprawled out in the box but Clark's goal still intact.
Danny Carmichael replaced Ian McShane on 61 minutes and within 60 seconds the Doonhamers got their deserved equaliser with a bit of an aid from the substitute winger.
Left-back Kevin Holt whipped in a floated cross which saw Carmichael's darting run make the defender take his eye of the ball which allowed Reilly to nip in at the back post and drill his half volley past Cuthbert to the delight of the Palmerston faithful.
It was a well taken goal by the increasingly impressive Reilly - his ninth of the campaign.
McIntyre smelt blood and sent on Derek Lyle for McHugh as the home side pushed for a winner. The sub involved straight away with a 71st minute curler which failed to trouble the visiting goalie.
Five minutes later a Chris Mitchell free-kick was easily held by Cuthbert as Queens huffed and puffed. They had reacted impressively to going behind but were again wasting opportunities to snatch all three points.
Man of the match Burns nearly won it with a long range left foot strike which skimmed the roof of the net with Cuthbert well beaten on 80 minutes but the score was still 1-1.
Visiting boss Neil made a double change with Antonie-Curier replacing 35-year-old Scotland and Michael Devlin adding a bit of pace to the defence in place of Garcia Tena.
It changed little at first as the Queens onslaught continued. Burns crossed for Lyle who laid off for Russell just eight yards from goal but the wide-mans diving header couldn't beat the keeper.
Cuthbert was keeping Hamilton in the game and on 83 minutes reacted brilliantly to make the first of two wonder saves at Palmerston in a matter of minutes.
Russell put in a terrific cross and there was Reilly again to flick his header goalwards bringing the crowd to their feet to celebrate a fantastic Queens win. However they hadn't banked on a flying Cuthbert who, from nowhere, got down to his left and tipped the header round the post.
Great football all round.
From the corner it was Durnan's chance to win it. The big defender jumping under pressure from Martin Canning to meet Mitchell's outswinger but he couldn't direct it goalwards – Durnan looked to have his shirt pulled as he jumped but the referee pointed for a goal-kick.
It was to be Queens' last effort of a determined second half display but a point still wasn't secure. Durnan headed over his own bar late on but it was another header which would be the main talking point as punters headed for the exits. Deep in stoppage time a late Hamilton break saw the always dangerous Antoine-Curier free at the back post. He directed a powerful header past Clark which seemed to have snatched all three points but Clark managed to change direction and get a strong glove to the ball and scoop it over the bar.
A top drawer save to finish a top drawer second half at Palmerston but deep down Queens will be gutted they didn't take all three points but in the end they were fortunate to get one.
The result keeps the hosts in fourth spot with nine league games to go.
But Queens gaffer McIntyre was sure his side should have had a chance to win it from the spot late on. He added: "For me, Canning had both arms around Durnan and it was a definite foul."
Visiting boss Alex Neil was also less than happy at the final whistle. He said: "It's a bit disappointing that we went ahead and then couldn't see the game out. But, to be fair, it was a very exciting match and could have gone either way. Both teams went for it."

Evidence suggests that vinegar can help lower blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes, states the American Diabetes Association. Acetic acid in vinegar inhibits several enzymes involved in digesting carbohydrates, including amylase, sucrase, maltase and lactase. Undigested carbohydrates can then pass through the system without affecting blood sugar levels.Continue Reading
Vinegar has been shown to have an effect on fasting levels as well as post-meal glucose levels. Dr. Andrea White and Dr. Carol Johnson, authors of the study posted by the American Diabetes Association, asked patients with type 2 diabetes to consume 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar each night before bed. They found that this reduced glucose concentrations in the morning. This cannot be explained by acetic acid's effect on digestion enzymes, and it is unclear why vinegar lowers fasting blood sugar levels.Learn more about Nutrition & Diets

This year's election is still way too close to call according to the most recent polling data, and Bible Belt ministers don't want to take any chances making sure their pick wins the White House. The only problem being that none of the candidates this year are from the Bible Belt, or even a red state. In 2008 many in the Bible Belt felt comfortable with John McCain being from the red state of Arizona, and Sarah Palin being from the red state of Alaska, but not this time around. The Republican candidates for 2012 are Mitt Romney from the blue state Massachusetts, and Paul Ryan from the mostly blue state of Wisconsin.
To try to guarantee the Republican voting base for this year's candidates, Bible Belt ministers have sent out a letter. The letter not only tells them to look past the fact that the candidates they are voting for are from blue states, but also to look past Romney being a Mormon and Ryan being Catholic.
The letter reads as follows:
Dear Parishioners,
This year's election is crucial to the well-being of our nation. We, just like you are concerned about the present state of affairs that has been going on throughout the country. It is imperative that we vote out President Obama and Vice President Biden.
We understand though that for some of you it will test your faith. As you know both Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan are from blue states, and as this concerns us too, we ask you to look past this. It is also important to look past the fact that Romney is a cult worshipping Mormon who thinks he is fulfilling some sort of white horse prophecy, and the fact that Paul Ryan is a Mary worshipping Catholic who defies the Holy Spirit with the deification of Jesus' mother.
We are a wholesome group of strictly Christian based area ministers who are asking you to trust us. President Obama may be a Christian (still not sure), but he does not promote the Christian lifestyle. He believes in health care for all and helping the poor, that is not what Jesus would have wanted. We need to make sure that Mitt Romney is elected so we can restore our path to prosperity by freeing up the markets, and letting the insurance companies decide if we get to have health care or not.
In closing, we understand that voting this November is going to take a lot of thought and prayer on your behalf, but the choice is clear. Vote Romney/Ryan!
In Christ,
The Organization of Southern and Midwestern Ministers
We'll have to wait and see in November if this strategy of laying all the cards out on the table works for the Bible Belt. They are pretty strict with their theological doctrine, so it will be interesting to see the end results.

I should think that the one man who, more than most, was relieved that animals were banned from the circus was the lion tamer.
Can you imagine going into a cage with half a dozen big cats and having a long-cane whip as your only defence? Who in their right mind would have wanted that job?
I am sure I can remember an assistant with a loaded rifle standing outside the cage just in case. But would he have been quick enough if the lion decided to turn nasty?
These two pictures come from Chipperfield's Circus on Southsea Common in 1961. All the big cats belonged to Dick Chipperfield.
And while we're on the subject of circuses, just look at the size of Billy Smart's Circus on the common in 1958. I can count at least 60 vehicles of all kinds looking like a wagon train circled in case of a 'Red Indian' attack.
To the top of the picture is the Naval War Memorial and the tent could hold 6,000.

Hilary Benn, the shadow Communities secretary, says English people should "talk proudly about being English" in an article in today's Daily Telegraph.
Mr Benn calls for the English to "reclaim the flag" of St George in the political sense from extremist groups who have used it to push a far right wing message.
Writing on St George's Day today, Mr Benn says: "Today many people will celebrate St George's Day, but while we are proud to talk about being English when it comes to sport, in politics there has been some reluctance to talk about Englishness in the way that our friends and relatives in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland celebrate their national identity. We should change that and talk proudly about being English.
"And we should reclaim the flag of St George from those whose values certainly do not represent what our nation is all about. Our flags – the Union Jack and the Cross of St George – belong to all of us."
Mr Benn adds that being proud of being English should not been seen as an attempt to undermine the United Kingdom.
He says: "Each country should feel comfortable with celebrating its own identity while being part of a partnership from which we all derive benefit, security, mutual support, and greater influence in a changing world."
However he says that power in England is too centralised and Westminster-focused, and suggests that devolution should be extended to the English regions.
He says: "Devolution is unfinished business. While the rest of United Kingdom has benefited from it, England has had very little. Neither Whitehall nor Westminster has really changed to reflect the new settlement.
"England remains a very centralised country, and too many decisions affecting the regions of England are still taken within a mile's radius of Big Ben.
"And yet the English are just as entitled to enjoy devolution of power as the rest of the UK's citizens, and as the debate about Scottish independence intensifies people in England will increasingly ask 'what about us?'."
Mr Benn says that Yorkshire and Humberside – which have a population of more than Scotland – should be given more powers to govern themselves. The economy of the North of England, he says, is twice the size of Scotland's.
A Labour Government, he says, would give the English regions more control over transport, infrastructure, skills, and economic development. He says: "All of these will need local leadership with Government giving communities the tools, powers, and finance they require to do the job."
He adds: "More decisions taken in England and away from Westminster, would not just be a good thing in itself.
"It would also recognise our pride in being English and put our trust in the English people to shape their communities and their regions in the way that they want."
Last year ministers set out plans to turn St George's Day into a Bank Holiday. St Andrew's Day in Scotland – November 30 - is already marked with a public holiday.
Under the proposals, the May Day bank holiday could be moved to St George's Day in April in England and St David's Day in March in Wales. St George's Day is celebrated on 23 April, the traditionally accepted date of the death of Saint George, England's patron saint, in the fourth century AD.

A couple of days ago Bill O'Reilly again demonstrated his aversion to free expression as well as his penchant for dishonesty. An op-ed that appeared in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer (a paper that O'Reilly regularly castigates as "far-left loons") laid out a case for Impeachment: If not now, when? The column was accompanied by a political cartoon that had Bush and Cheney dressed up for their mugshots.
That was more than enough to set O'Reilly off on a rant that amounted to a call for censorship (YouTube):
"Look at this. This is ridiculous […] It's based on nothing […] I want you to excoriate them. Let them have it […] It's wrong though for them to do it. Don't you think that showing a mug shot of a sitting president, a sitting vice president is irresponsible?"
O'Reilly is outraged that anyone would exercise their First Amendment rights to express an opinion about the criminality of this administration. He believes that such open expression "diminishes intelligent conversation," (as if O'Reilly ever engaged in one) and his response is to shut down conversation entirely. Note that O'Reilly is complaining about the cartoon, not the content of the article. Although he does say that the cartoon is "based on nothing," despite the fact that it is attached to a well-documented column that enumerates specific justifications for investigating the President and his administration.
After once again calling the paper "loons," (an example of his idea of "intelligent conversation") O'Reilly attacks the paper's credibility by smugly declaring that it has lost 40% of its readers in the past ten years:
"Almost half of their readers have said 'We don't like you anymore, we're not going to read you.'"
What O'Reilly leaves out is any actual context that would enlighten his viewers. The truth is that almost all major newspapers have suffered sharp declines in circulation over the past ten years. But more to the point, in only two years (Sept 2005 to Sept 2007) Bill O'Reilly himself has lost 33% of his total viewers and a whopping 59% of viewers in the all-important 25-54 age group. That's more than half of his viewers saying, "We don't like you anymore, we're not going to watch you."
This brief exchange reveals much about O'Reilly. It shows that while he is vociferously objecting to the free speech rights of others, he will use his own platform to misinform his viewers. No wonder they don't like him anymore.

A failed experiment with Rolando McClain isn't enough to keep his old team away from another Alabama 'backer.
The Oakland Raiders are reportedly checking up on Reggie Ragland, a former Tide star like McClain, at the Senior Bowl this week. Ragland is a consensus first-round pick.

The Foundation Of Synthesis 105
The VCA & Other Tools
18 videos | 70 minutes | by The Bob Moog Foundation
- Status

- Released
- Oct 1st, 2012
Learn all about VCAs, Ring Modulation and lots of other advanced synthesis tools in this fifth course from The Foundation Of Synthesis series created exclusively for us by The Bob Moog Foundation...
Now that you're well versed in the concept of Voltage Control, get ready for some more advanced synthesis techniques. In this course, The Bob Moog Foundation's former lead educator Marc Doty explains the Voltage Control Amplifier (VCA), the sideband-rich synthesis called Ring Modulation. He even dives into Noise explaining what it is and how to use it in your sonic experimentations.
You'll also learn about different VC techniques as he demystifies and demonstrates After Touch, Portamento, Sample and Hold and other alternative control techniques.
See all these powerful tools and concepts in action and how they are implemented in the minds and hardware of the world's greatest synth designers.
Bob Moog was an early pioneer and inventor of voltage-controlled analog synthesizers. He revolutionized the music industry and his ideas, inventions and musical instruments have dominated the sound of music for more than 30 years. Aside from being an innovator, Dr. Bob was an outspoken advocate of education. The Bob Moog Foundation, created by his daughter, Michelle Moog-Kousa, continues his legacy with Dr. Bob's SoundSchool, the preservation of his inventions and the development of the Moogseum—the only museum of its kind dedicated to the advancement of sonic education. We hope you will help support the BMF's efforts by watching these courses with the knowledge that a large portion of the proceeds go to support their awesome efforts!
So sit back, hit the play button, and proceed on your journey into the Foundation of Synthesis with Marc Doty, and the Bob Moog Foundation. Be sure to watch all 6 of the BMF's courses on filters, modulation, oscillators, sound design and more!

So far the first video i really like from this video series. Good explanation of Portamento and Glissando. The touchpad is a super cool feature from the Voyager and explained quite nice :)
Great course. Fast and usefully in all synthesizer nowadays. Even in Arturia Colletion where I have most of this synthesizers in virtual version. All pretty clear. Thanks. I recommend.
A nice and easy to understand tutorial. I like that it's straight to the point and very informative!
I learned a lot from this course. Makes me more interested in the "Moog" sound.
This series continues to lay the foundation for understanding the components of synthesis! Mr. Doty continues to give great examples through each course!! Can't wait to watch the next one!
Kind of a continuation of the 104 course for voltage control, this time focusing mostly on the amp.
Super clear explanation.

So, I bought a house 11/06 with a pool, and the former owner had been using Baquacil for all 8 years since the pool was built. I tried it for one summer (last summer) and couldn't keep up with the algae growth. It seemed I needed to vaccum twice a week and backflush the filter every few days.
Anyway, I've been reading these forums, which are FANTASTIC, because the people at the pool stores seem to know almost nothing about Baquacil, even if they sell it. I was very nervous about starting this process because I'm new to pools in general and haven't exactly mastered all the eqipment yet. Last weekend (May 3rd), I took the cover off, and the water looked pretty good. My DE grids had recently been acid washed, so they were clean and ready to go. I hadn't added any Baquacil since early August of last year. For August and September, until I closed my pool, I only added non-chlorine shock on a weekly basis. As I said, I had to constantly clean the pool and backflush the filter. Last Sunday, I added some dry acid to get my pH down to 7.2, and ran the filter for about 12 hours a day, bought the TF100 test kit and loaded up on bleach. I took a water sample to the pool store, where they told me my Baq levels were 40ppm! Way higher than what I was hoping for, especially since I hadn't added Bac for 8 months. At the pool store, they told me that the vinyl liner leeches out the Baquacil during the winter.
The first beach went in early Saturday morning. I bought the 1.42 gal 6% supermarket bleach. The pool immediately turned an opaque brown with a lot of foam and gunk floating on the surface. The FC level was back down to zero in about an hour. It may have happened sooner, but I waited an hour to check. During the day on Saturday, I added bleach every one or two hours to get back up to 15ppm. I bought some of the Clorox Outdoor bleach from Lowes that is more concentrated. That seemed to get the FC up to 15 pretty easily. I had to backflush the filter and add new DE at least four times on Saturday when the pressure in the DE tank rose to 20psi (it normally sits right on 10psi).
By Sunday morning, the pool was clearer, but still had a ton of junk floating on the top, but I could see the bottom. As of this morning (Monday) after 48 hours of constantly adding bleach (the equivalent of 45 gallons of 6%), the water is crystal clear. I had no idea that my pool could be that clear. It's really amazing. Almost all of the foam is gone from the surface too. I did a quick reading this morning and here's what I found:
I added a 1.42 gallon jug of 6% to get my FC back up to 15ppm. The DE filter was still reading 10psi, so I think I'm good with not having to backflush so often anymore. My plan is to keep adding bleach in the morning and evening until the FC holds overnight and the CCs go down to less than 1ppm. I guess this is the part that takes a while. Here are my questions:
1. When should I take my DE grids out and hose them down / replace them? Do I need to wait until the very end, or would doing that now help out the conversion?
2. When do I need to worry about the other tests like CYA, TA, etc. Can that wait until I have the chlorine stabilized?
3. I have a chlorine generator ready and waiting to be installed. Do I want my TC to be 2-3ppm or 0ppm before I start running that?
I think that's it for now. I took some pictures that I'll try to post tonight. I just wanted to let people know that even with a high Baq level, if you can focus a lot of attention on your pool (and it was definitely hard this Mother's Day weekend, especially on my wife), you can get to clear water in a short amount of time. Saying you need a lot of bleach is an understatement. I made five separate bleach runs in two days. I would definitely recommend that Clorox Outdoor stuff though. One big jug brings the FC level up quite a bit.

How to Treat Colds & Fevers Using Home Remedies
There is no scientifically proven cure for the common cold, but you can use remedies at home to alleviate the symptoms while your body is fighting the infection. A fever is the body's way of fighting an infection, but it can make you uncomfortable, and at-home fever remedies can alleviate some of the discomfort. Keep in mind that a high fever that lasts for more than a few days, or a cold that doesn't seem to be going away, are possible signs of a more serious problem that needs to be discussed with a doctor.
Video of the Day
Step 1
Drink plenty of fluids to stay hydrated and help the body rid itself of the virus. Fluids will also help to soothe a cough or sore throat. The fluids should be caffeine and sugar free. Water and broth soups are excellent choices.
Step 2
Take a dose of supplemental vitamin C to boost the immune system. You can get this in pill, chewable or liquid form. You can also drink juices high in vitamin C such as orange juice.
Step 3
Use saline spray as directed. This can help with nasal congestion and post-nasal drip. Consider using a Neti pot, a more comprehensive way to clear the sinus passages (see Resources).
Step 4
Pour essential oils in a sink mixed with water. Place a towel over your head and breathe the essential oils in to help in clearing the nasal passages. Eucalyptus and peppermint oils are great for clearing congestion.
Step 5
Dip a washcloth in cold water and wring it out. Place the cold washcloth over the forehead or back of the neck. This will help with making you comfortable if you are running a fever.

Partly one of this collection, we went in excess of many www.kevinhodges.com.au/property-management-adelaide of the fundamental principles for receiving a tenant into your recently bought GO Zone property. On this page, we are going to go into far more particulars over the solutions you may have for finding that tenant and, more importantly, starting that dollars movement as soon as attainable.
As you could bear in mind, there is certainly a good deal included with receiving to that initial rent test. All of the advertising, opportunity tenant homework, after which you can administration on the tenant after they go into the home can be quite taxing on someone.
Renting FROM Very long Length
Many of the previous discussions are even more sophisticated dependant upon how far you reside from the residence. Consider it from me, striving to try and do each of the lease-up operate and house management by yourself from the extended length is undoubtedly an all consuming process; just one which I don't advocate to everyone who may have other obligations (i.e. a daily life). Extra on this soon.
Specialist House Managers
Enter the experienced Residence Supervisor. Normally, a assets supervisor will get compensated for both equally the lease up of the assets, in addition to over the management of the tenant after during the home. During the lease up, assets professionals spend very serious dollars promotion the house and therefore they commonly can command a lease up price. In lots of destinations (equally within and out of doors of the GO Zone), this ordinarily equates to your demand of 1/2 of your 1st month's hire.
In addition, a administration rate is usually obtained via the property manager over a regular basis which is a share of the month-to-month rent quantity. For very long phrase leases, this averages within the 10-12% variety. Observe the true management cost will vary widely depending upon the world where by the assets is located, the kind of assets, and so forth.
Possibility one: Undertaking IT Oneself
For those who are just like the frustrating the vast majority of GO Zone investors, you almost certainly usually do not live around your GO Zone property. With this circumstance, like a house owner in addition to a real estate trader you'll want to feel tricky about taking on the house management task by yourself.
While using the Net, you could be tempted to try and do a lot of the promoting on your own. Nevertheless, there however could be the have to have for that community existence to the ground for exhibiting the assets to prospective tenants, finding contracts and agreements in fingers, reviewed and executed, and for knocking around the doorway when rent is late.
Also, for those who are new to serious estate investing and new to rental houses, it's almost certainly not a superb plan to try this all by yourself from the length. It is commonly suggested which you try your hand at self property administration as part of your personal back again garden initially just before even thinking about the activity of undertaking this extensive distance.
Solution 2: COMBO PLATTER one
Below may be the situation in which you would pay out another person else to lease up your property, and after that you handle the home by yourself. For this, chances are you'll get yourself a assets manager, certified experienced or other lease-up expert to head out and current market your house, locate a tenant, do the tenant screening, and many others.
Regretably, not a lot of industry experts, rental administrators, etc., need to do all this do the job and only get a number of the front finish money. If you're able to uncover an individual to acquire on this part of the front conclusion company, you ought to actually also take into consideration the additional lease up time that could be demanded; particularly if they are managing other related qualities where they also have a part on the regular monthly rent that comes in.
The sole time this predicament functions nicely for all events is if you recognize of the serious estate expert (or other human being) that presently understands of the tenant and does not have an obtainable home to put them in.

text: As the number of Chinese living in cities explodes, the development opportunities are vast in every field. By 2030, 1 billion consumers will live in China's cities. Chinese and global companies are well aware of the huge size and potential of this emerging urban market. But businesses should shift their sights from a panoramic view of the opportunity to a close-up of the dynamics of urbanization. To be successful, they need to keep pace with the rapidly changing managerial strategies that city leaders are employing as their cities expand. China's urbanization is largely a local phenomenon. City mayors are the most powerful movers and shapers of the process. Their effectiveness—or lack of it—should be a key component of companies' strategic planning for the Chinese market. New research by the McKinsey Global Institute (MGI) argues that business has a chance to play a key role as cities mature. Companies can bring not only capital but also an infusion of knowledge and can help guarantee greater efficiency and productivity from major public projects. The scale of the urbanization phenomenon is startling. MGI estimates that, between now and 2025, China's cities could pave 5 billion square meters of roads and build up to 170 new mass-transit systems (twice the number that all of Europe has today). By 2025, cities will construct 40 billion square meters of floor space in 5 million buildings, of which up to 50,000 will be skyscrapers—the equivalent of building up to two Chicagos every year. The incremental growth alone in urban China's consumption between 2008 and 2025 will be equivalent to the creation of a new market the size of Germany's in 2007. Hungry for energy With current trends, energy demand is set to more than double, requiring massive expansion in capacity—as much as 1,200 gigawatts of extra capacity between now and 2025, MGI estimates. China's freight volumes—largely carried by road—will quadruple by 2025. Beijing has recently allowed the private sector to participate in infrastructure building (such as toll roads), mainly in joint ventures with local governments or state-owned enterprises. China's huge growth as a consumer market and its megasized infrastructure projects will doubtless offer rich rewards for business. Yet multinational corporations have tended not to look much beyond China's fast-growing eastern seaboard. In the next decades, however, it is China's midsize cities where most of the burgeoning middle class will live and where most residential construction growth will occur. Some cities haven't even touched the edges of business' radar screens. During the course of MGI's research in China, we "discovered" an additional 195 urban centers that China does not designate as cities but which are cities in terms of size, population, and stage of development. They are also growing rapidly. These cities could have substantial future commercial potential, and they illustrate the importance of looking beyond China's most high-profile economic powerhouses. Pinpointing opportunities geographically is one aspect of any entry or market expansion strategy. Keeping pace with the evolution of urban development strategies is another. Cities that have spent the past 20 years or more maximizing their gross domestic product growth at virtually any cost—environmental and social—now face a heavy investment bill as they seek to mitigate the pressures that have mounted. Pollution and congestion are reaching critical proportions in many cities. This will provide openings for innovation in areas such as energy conservation, water recycling, and clean technology, not to mention power generation and transportation. Maximizing efficiency Beyond firefighting today's intensifying urban stress, China's city leaders know that they face a monumental managerial task as they seek to absorb an additional 350 million more urban dwellers by 2025, of whom 240 million will be migrants. Many cities are already thinking creatively about how to meet this challenge through policies that boost the efficiency or productivity of urban expansion—the efficiency of resources, of urban and transport planning, and of administration. Business has an opening in helping mayors to fix not only the "hardware" but also the "software" of cities. Local governments have already shown themselves willing to enter into partnership with the private sector, including multinationals. Take training: A number of Chinese and multinational companies have instituted internship and training programs at the city level, aimed at raising graduate quality, in conjunction with provincial and city governments. Zhejiang province has encouraged private capital to invest in education, making funding more efficient and thereby producing improved results in terms of graduate employment rates for less money than richer provinces. A nationwide program of "urban productivity," replicating vanguard cities' best practice and innovation across China, could save $220 billion in public spending by 2025, cut sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide emissions by upward of 35 percent, and halve water pollution. Business has the potential to play a partnering and enabling role in delivering these significant benefits—opening up new market opportunities for themselves in the process.

Scott ready to emulate Norman at Open
Fuelled by history and feeling in the form of his life, Adam Scott is determined to emulate his childhood hero by ending a 21-year Australian drought at the British Open.
World No.1 Scott was just five when Greg Norman won the first of his two Open titles at Turnberry in 1986.
Norman's first triumph came 21 years after Peter Thomson won the last of five Claret Jugs, and 2013 US Masters champion Scott would end an Australian wait of exactly the same length if he adds a second major title at Royal Liverpool.
Heart-breaking near misses in the past two British Opens have only increased a desire that has burned strongly inside Scott since seeing the triumphs of Norman - who also won at Royal St George's in 1993 - and Ian Baker-Finch (Royal Birkdale, 1991).
"You want to emulate what your childhood hero has done and Greg winning the Open, it's always sat very high with me," said Scott, who spearheads an eight-strong Australian contingent at Hoylake from Thursday.
"And watching Baker-Finch win it as well, in the fashion he did, was pretty spectacular.
"It's got a huge amount of meaning to me. I think it does to all the golfers.
"And (last year's champion) Phil Mickelson, I really liked what he said, he felt like a complete golfer after he'd won this because it's such a different test and examination of your game."
Conceivably, Scott could have already matched Norman's haul had he made the most of recent opportunities.
He blew a four-shot lead in disastrous 2012 final-round meltdown at Royal Lytham, while he was also in a winning position at Muirfield last year before an error-riddled finish cost him any chance.
But rather than ruing his inability to finish the job, Scott says the performances are proof he has what it takes to win links golf's biggest prize.
As with the past two years, Scott has spent more than a week preparing at the tournament venue but he's never felt quite so good heading into a major.
"I think I'm playing some of the best golf of my life at the moment," said Scott, who turns 34 on the tournament eve.
"I should really be taking advantage of it and stepping up this week and putting myself in with a good chance.
"I think Lytham was the proving to me that I've got what it takes to win.
"It was obviously not the finish I wanted there but that gave me a lot of confidence, not just about playing well in majors, but also that I had the game to win an Open Championship."
Scott is equal favourite alongside Rory McIlroy, and is by far Australia's brightest prospect at Hoylake this week.
Few would completely write off Jason Day's chances given his phenomenal consistency in majors (seven top 10s from 14 starts), but the world No.5 is yet to make his mark in links golf.
US PGA tour regulars John Senden and Marc Leishman have contended in big tournaments before but have also struggled to adjust their games to British conditions.
Matt Jones, Brett Rumford and rank outsiders Bryden Macpherson and Rhein Gibson are not tipped to seriously challenge but will feel anything is possible in what has been a stellar year so far for Australian golf.

One of the most appealing features of golfing in Kenya is the variety. From the beach clubs set among palms and casuarinas with stunning views of the sapphire Indian Ocean, to those dominated by the perennial snowcap of Mount Kenya there is a medley of courses each vying for priority as the most attractive for location and interest. One is even built on the slopes of an extinct volcano!
Kenya has 40 golf courses of which 12 are 18-hole, 10 of which are used for championship events. 6 are within a 20 mile radius of Nairobi - Kenya's bustling capital. The oldest 18 hole course is Royal Nairobi Golf Club founded in 1906, the latest is the David Jones design pay and play 9 holes golf course Golf Park within the Nairobi race course.
The weather in Kenya is ideal for golf all year round. On occasions you might need a sweater or a jersey, but you will usually play in a polo shirt.
In the highland areas the temperatures are in the low 20's and at the coast in the high 20's or low 30's. There are 12 hours of day light and, depending on the season, 4 to 9 hours of sunshine. During the two rainy seasons, (April and November) the rain usually falls before 10 am and after 5 PM and almost never when you are playing! More and more clubs have installed sophisticated fairway watering systems to keep the course green during the dry seasons.

Quinta Vale D. Maria White Port
Winemaker Notes
Critical AcclaimAll Vintages
A dedicated team of viticulturists and winemakers - Sandra Tavares da Silva, Joana Pinhao and I - tries to make sure that each and every one of our wines is a testimony to our life's philosophy. We hope that when tasting them you will also agree that we have accomplished at least some of our ambitions.
The home of Port—perhaps the world's most popular after-dinner drink, the Douro region of Portugal is one of the world's oldest delimited wine regions, established in 1756. Less well-known but often of excellent quality are the region's dry table wines, both red and white. The vineyards of the Douro, set on the slopes surrounding the Douro river (known as the Duero in Spain), are among the steepest in the world, necessitating the use of terraces in much of the region. This often requires grapes to be harvested by hand—a labor-intensive process. The climate here is Mediterranean, with hot, dry summers and cold winters. There are three sub-regions of the Douro—Baixo Corgo, the mildest and wettest, Cima Corgo, where many of the best producers are situated, and Douro Superior, the hottest and driest. The best sites, typically with schist-based soils, are reserved for Port production, while table wines are usually grown on granite.
While more than 100 indigenous varieties are approved for wine production in the Douro, there are five primary grapes that make up most Port and table wines. Touriga Nacional is the finest of these, prized for its deep color, tannic and concentrated structure, and floral aromatics. Along with Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz (Spain's Tempranillo) helps to provide the backbone to these wine and adds bright acidity and red fruit flavors. Touriga Franca and Tinta Barroca help round out the blend with their soft, supple textures. Tinta Cão, a fine but low-yielding variety, is rarely planted but still highly valued for its ability to produce excellent, complex wines. Rosé Port and table wines are produced from the same varieties, while whites are generally crisp, mineral-driven blends of Arinto, Viosinho, Gouveio, Malvasia Fina, and an assortment of others.
Blended from the most important red grapes of the Duoro Valley, Port is the famous fortified wine from Portugal. It is based on the Touriga Nacional grape with over 80 other varieties approved for use in the blend. However, typically about four other varieties play a major role: Tinta Barroca, Tinta Cão, Tinta Roriz (Tempranillo) and Touriga Francesa. Other wine regions of the world can produce fortified wine of a similar style from the same grapes or other grapes.
There are numerous styles of Port: Ruby, Tawny, Vintage, LBV, White, Colheita, and a few unusual others.
Ruby ports usually pack the most value and are ready to drink once bottled. Typical characteristics are ripe cherry and blackberry flavors with stewed plums, cocoa and dates.
Tawny ports are "tawny" in color and have flavors of toffee, caramel, toasted pecans, vanilla, dried apricot, citrus peel, green figs and roasted espresso. The age designation on a Tawny Port indicates the average vintage age of the grapes in the bottle.
When Port is made with high quality grapes selected from a single notable vintage, it is called Vintage Port. Some of the best recent vintages are 2011, 2009, 2007, 2003, 2000, 1997 and 1994. Vintage Ports are complex and full-bodied with many flavors possible: concentrated blackberry, black cherry, raspberry and spice, smoke, coffee and chocolate.
LBV Port comes from a single-vintage Ruby Port and may spend six years in the barrel before being bottled. These are ready to drink upon release. Serve most Ports slightly chilled at around 55-65°F.

PASSENGERS aboard a Perth-bound Skywest flight were forced to disembark in a southern town after burning smell was noticed in the cabin.
The flight on the turboprop Fokker 50 took off early on Monday from Esperance and was scheduled to land in Ravensthorpe, then Perth.
Chief executive Jason Bitter said 23 of the 46 passengers planned to disembark at Ravensthorpe but all were evacuated as a precaution.
"There was the smell of something burning - nobody saw any smoke," Mr Bitter told AAP.
He said the matter had been referred to the Australian Transport Safety Bureau.
All Perth-bound passengers were bussed back to Esperance and assigned to another flight.

Susan Cain Quotes About MeetingsQuotes about: Meetings
Introverts, in contrast, may have strong social skills and enjoy parties and business meetings, but after a while wish they were home in their pajamas. They prefer to devote their social energies to close friends, colleagues, and family. They listen more than they talk, think before they speak, and often feel as if they express themselves better in writing than in conversation. They tend to dislike conflict. Many have a horror of small talk, but enjoy deep discussions.
Spend your free time the way you like, not the way you think you're supposed to. Stay home on New Year's Eve if that's what makes you happy. Skip the committee meeting. Cross the street to avoid making aimless chitchat with random acquaintances. Read. Cook. Run. Write a story. Make a deal with yourself that you'll attend a set number of social events in exchange for not feeling guilty when you beg off.
The emphasis is on community, on participating in more and more programs and events, on meeting more and more people. It's a constant tension for many introverts that they're not living that out. And in a religious world, there's more at stake when you feel that tension. It doesn't feel like 'I'm not doing as well as I'd like.' It feels like 'God isn't pleased with me.'

For our September Slow Food Waitakere event we had the pleasure of attending a modern Japanese cooking class hosted by Kazuyo at Pine Valley in Sliverdale (a beautiful setting). Spaces for this class were limited to 14 so they were filled really fast!The menu was very varied and consisted of the following dishes:
- Filo dumplings
- Ceviche Sushi
- Mushroom mixed grain rice
- Seasonal salad with onion dressing
- Sun Pickles
- Grilled Tarakihi roll in a clear dashi soup.
- Panna Cotta with Yuzu sauce
One of the key dishes we learned about was Dashi Soup/Stock (below) which forms the basis for soups such as Miso and other dishes like the Grilled Tarakihi mentioned above. The Dashi stock is made with Katsuo flakes, but can be made vegetarian by omitting this ingredient.
My favourite dish was a desert that was so fantastic it felt like there was just not enough! The amazing Panna Cotta with Yuzu sauce. (right) The secret ingredient is Limoncello!
The desert is really easy to prepare and will definitely wow your guests!
I hope you enjoy these simple recipes put together by Kazuyo as much as I have enjoyed cooking (and eating them) and they inspire you to take that step into the unknown of new ingredients and tastes for which I am sure you will be richly rewarded.
If you have any ideas for an event or experience you would like to enjoy, drop us a line with your idea's.
For any of the recipes mentioned above or my take on the class please visit my blog. Ciao Clint! <end>

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'GBAtemp & Scene News' started by T-hug, Mar 7, 2006.
Translated name would be "Yoshi's Island".
How did you figure out that?
Woah, I bow to your l33t chinese skillz0rz, Ranma13.
Well, that's one more rom for the "games that 99% if the ppl will only download, then never even play once" list...
I must say, I really like that title screen
Yaoxi eh?
I know what YOU'RE thinking...dirty dirty X_X
Well, sometimes the Chinese name is different than the English name. Hence why I wanted to point out that it was directly translated to Yoshi's Island rather than Yoshi's Communist Party Land or something.
Err, no. I'm not into that sort of thing. I guess knowing what you are referring to is bad enough.
I was merely pointing out the Chinese name for Yoshi sounds a bit funny to me. Yaoxi ftw!

The process of property purchase in Singapore is so challenging and you need to have a better idea on how it goes. Your residential status whether Singapore citizen, Singapore PR or Permanent Resident, and foreigner is the basis of what property that can be offered. So, it is important that you'll know the process and be ready about it if you are eager to get a property in Singapore. Being a Singapore citizen could not be a problem since they are residing within the country. But for Singapore PR, there were fewer property purchases available for them
Please take a look at the following property purchase available and not for the Singapore PR:
Flats which are called Built-to-order (BTO) and Sale of Balance Flats (SBF) are directly being sold by Housing Development Board (HBD) Singapore to the public. However, these are not available to the Singapore PRs unless they are already married to a Singapore citizen or planning to get married. Then you need to be at least a PR for three years prior applying.
The HBD resale flat is available to Singapore PR couples, since they are not eligible to purchase new HBD flats. However, they are not available for single PRs and siblings that have both status of PR. The couple PR must have at least three years of PR status each. They also have to dispose their overseas properties in the next half of the year after their purchase of HBD resale flat.
Executive condominiums are not available yet to PRs on the first built. They need to wait for the five-year MOP or minimum occupation period. When that time passed, executive condominiums are available for rent or sale to the single PR and couples whether one or both of the spouses have status of PR.
Private property like The Tapestry Condo in Tampines is categorized into non-restricted and restricted private property. For the non-restricted it means that you don't have to worry about any restrictions in purchasing a private property. But for restricted properties, there is needed approval that you need to obtain from the Ministry of Law prior purchasing the property.
These are just the overview of each of the properties that a Singapore PR can buy in the country. There are still a lot of properties that each citizen or PR can purchase. However, there could be some property that have restrictions or may not be available to PR or to foreigners. It is still better to get advice by an adviser to make sure that you are getting the right property for you. Condo rental is one of the options that you can choose just in case that you need to temporarily settle in while waiting for the approval or the completion of the purchase of the property.
This means that you need to make an extra research to ensure that you are following the right decision in buying private property, condominium, or flats based on the restrictions of the law in Singapore. This is important, so you can have a better shelter to live in within the country.

Book Exchange in old Phone Box
The adoption of the phone box on Station Road by the Parish Council has been completed and after consultation with the Community it has been decided to convert it to a 'Book Exchange'.
The work is well advanced with all metal work cleaned and primed, the door stripped and painted with two coats of Red Heritage paint, the floor laid and the backboard and shelf mountings fitted. The shelves have been made and varnished and are ready for installation.
Further work includes a qualified electrician connecting the lighting, tiling the floor, applying the Heritage paint to the rest of the box and to install signage. This final works will have to wait until we have warmer weather and on this basis the opening of the book exchange is provisionally scheduled for the end April or early May.

Chapters 11 and 12
It takes a while, but soon the man next to him begins greeting him each morning, and he returns the greeting automatically until one day the man surprises him by introducing himself in English. Later, three soldiers arrive with shackles, and Khalid watches as one group of prisoners is taken away. When they return, they are wet and are wearing clean t-shirts. Khalid can hardly believe a shower is in his future. A Red Cross representative arrives with pens, paper and a cup with the Red Cross logo. He is told his number is 256, and Khalid tries to tell him that he is just a child and should be in school. He smiles and tells Khalid that he is an enemy combatant and unfortunately he can do nothing. Khalid realizes the letters probably won't get where they are supposed to...

Academy Award-Winning Filmmaker Paul Haggis Hosts Brioni Store Opening
The intimate celebration on Rodeo Drive benefited the Artists for Peace and Justice, a non-profit organization committed to supporting communities in Haiti.
Academy Award-winning filmmaker Paul Haggis helped host the grand re-opening of luxury menswear boutique, Brioni on Rodeo Drive that benefitted the Artists for Peace and Justice foundation.
Ten percent of the night's proceeds were dedicated to the APJ, a non-profit organization founded by Haggis that is committed to supporting communities in Haiti through education and health programs.
Haggis, who has written for shows like Walker, Texas Ranger and Academy Award-winning films Million Dollar Baby and Crash enlisted numerous A-list celebrities such as Gerard Butler, Ben Stiller and Olivia Wilde as members of his Board of Directors.
"They saw what we were doing with Haiti and were impressed," Haggis told The Hollywood Reporter on how his partnership with Brioni emerged. "They didn't ask for anything. They said, we see what you're doing and we want to help."
Brioni's suits hold a long history in Hollywood having been worn by Kirk Douglas, Donald Trump and Clark Gable. Their label is the official suit of James Bond, one of the worlds most recognizable and always impecably dressed secret agents.

"We really believe in APJ and what they're doing," Todd Barrato, president of Brioni, said. "We're excited to announce about what we're going to do together in the very near future."
The timeless and elegant new store features ready to wear suits surrounded by gold toned cages, and a private fitting area for their high-profile guests on the second floor. The structure is part of their latest concept design that is being rolled out nationwide and across the globe.
