The deluge of iPhone 7 parts leaks isn't letting up any time soon, with Asian tipsters today claiming they've laid their hands on the forthcoming smartphone's battery.
The power unit is marked as having 7.04 watt–hours, making it larger than the iPhone 6s's battery which offered 6.61 watt–hours. However, it puts it virtually on a par with 2013's iPhone 6, which features a 7.01 watt–hour battery.
The exact charge capacity remains unclear. However, this leak does seem to suggest that Apple is not willing to compromise on its design in order to offer a larger battery.
Rumours have consistently suggested that Apple is, in fact, looking to slim down its next iPhone even further.
If this leak turns out to be true, it's likely to leave many potential users disgruntled about the fact that Apple isn't keen on offering battery life that lasts longer than 24 hours.
Apple's Chief Design Officer, Jony Ive, has previously said that he was not willing to offer a larger battery and that the reason power ran down so quickly on iPhones was because they were so alluring to users.
Apple is set to reveal the iPhone 7 later this year. The iPhone SE model is due out this month.

The Search for Paedophiles
Operation Ore, run by Britain's National Criminal Intelligence Service, still have 900 suspects under surveillance, suspected of being involved in an international child sex ring after their US counterparts handed them the names and banking details of 7,250 people whose names were on the register of a now defunct US child porn web site.
1850 people out of this list were actually charged and so far 1451 have been convicted.
Tony Blair's government in 2003 slapped a gagging order, called a D-notice, on Press reporting on this operation, after the Intelligence Services learned of the involvement of senior politicians at the highest level of his government, citing the upcomingIraqi war and national security as a reason.
However, their actions failed to save one of Tony Blair's closest aides, Phillip Lyon, who was arrested and later jailed for 3 years on 12 specimen charges of making indecent images of a child. He could have faced 10 years in jail, so his sentence was particularly light considering the gravity of his offence.
Speculation on Who Those Senior Politicians Are
The influential and authoritative Sunday Times has reportedly obtained a list of the names of suspects from the FBI which includes two senior government ministers, but the Blair government's D-notice ensured a news black-out on their names being published.
Speculation has naturally been rife, and I have read those two names myself but am reluctant to publish them here because I can find no corroboration to prove what has been said.
It is also widely reported that one of them is involved with a child sex ring providing perverts in Brussels with girls and boys from Italy and Portugal, as evidenced by the police before the gagging order was put in place.
Many of the sites I have read claim to have been written by gagged British Press journalists.
Is This Why We Went to War?
Many people in Britain failed to understand why Tony Blair insisted Britain follow George Bush's lead and send troops into Iraq, a country whose people had done nothing to ours.
It is now being speculated that they were forced into it by the Bush administration, following fears his intelligence services would name the top government ministers uncovered by Operation Ore, which would effectively topple the whole British government.
List of Paedophile Politicians
I have managed to obtain a list of convicted paedophiles currently serving in the lower ranks of both major political parties, as town councillors, and some who have been booted out of office as they face new charges.
I doubt if this list is anywhere near complete, and I am shocked to realise they were allowed to stand at election when the election rules clearly state that anyone with a criminal conviction need not apply.
I will publish this list if there is enough demand.
As the list seems extensive, would it be fair to ask what it is about politicians and paedophiles? Does the idea of holding political office attract a certain type of person? Or does holding office turn people into perverts?
These are the people who make the laws in our country.
Is it any wonder the controversial Sexual Offences Act of 2003 has now been relaxed to allow a lighter sentence to those accused who show in court that their victim 'consented' to their being molested?
How can a child possibly consent to sex?
Why are Paedophiles Given the Freedom to Re-offend?
Many people don't understand why paedophiles are allowed out to repeat offend again and again.
They never understand why they often get a lighter sentence than the maximum laid down in Law.
Perhaps it is because our legal and political systems are rife with paedophiles, and it is not in their own personal interests to jail others like them.
They are sick sad individuals who should not be allowed to live beside the rest of us, far less have the right to determine how our country is run.
I have been reading many items on this and other sites about the Operation Ore situation. As I understand them, D-notices are issued by the M. o. D. and have 5 categories under which they are so issued. None of those categories relates to child pornography, unless it is the 1 covering the security and intelligence services.
If the security and intelligence services are involved, it just adds to the so-called "conspiracy theory" that children are used for the purposes of entrapment and blackmail by the security and intelligence services and ties up nicely with the earlier comment about the Blair government being blackmailed into invading Iraq along with the U. S. A. government.
Please folks, type the name "Hollie Greig" into your search engine, and see what nice people are looking after your best interests!!
Oh yea, as for "american romance" I don't like Blair coz he's a traitor!! Both The supremacy Act 1559, and the Bill of rights 1689 quite clearly state:
"No foreign prince, person, prelate, state or potentate hath or ought to have any jurisdiction, power, superiority, pre-eminence or authority ecclesiastical or spiritual within this realm"
So remind me, from where within Britain does the European Union come from?? Coz if it doesn't thats both Blair & Brown guilty of treason!!
And I wonder what kind of man would call an article about Paedophiles "crap" mmmmh!!!
Well I hope that you are wrong but this would not surprise me.
I think your accusation of calling Tony a child molestor is wrong! that is a serious accusation and one should have more facts before writing this type of crap because you don't like the man.
I think you may be partly if not wholly accurate in that the establishment closed ranks to cover up.

2183 West 4th Avenue
Vancouver, BC
Brief Description: A local high-end favourite, Bishop's has been in business for 25 years doing what they do best; local, (mostly) organic food with a definite West Coast influence. John Bishop was one of the first chefs in Vancouver to emphasize the importance of local organic food. Prices are high but you are paying for quality.
Yes, yes…I know that I had said Valentine's Day was over-rated so you probably think that I'm a traitor for talking about my romantic dinner at Bishop's around Valentine's Day…but I can explain! For months I had been looking forward to the "Hugs and Fishes" surprise that I had planned for B. It was a couples-only event at the Aquarium where we got to do fun things like make sushi, partake in a behind-the-scenes tour, stuff our faces at the cheese and chocolate buffet, fall asleep to belugas floating past the window, and in the morning, we enjoyed a hot breakfast surrounded by tropical fish. Even though it was classified as a Valentine's Day event, I wanted to do it anyway because, seriously, how often do you get to sleep at the Aquarium?! To make the night even more memorable, we planned to start our Saturday night (see it wasn't really even V Day!) with dinner at Bishop's.
We were the first to arrive at Bishop's for the 5.30pm seating and this meant that we were able to really take a good look at the dining room. There is one dining room but it is split into two spaces; an upper and lower room, separated by some stairs. It is small and intimate but, thankfully, the tables are not squished together so you can retain some privacy. The room is definitely geared towards more mature tastes and the reason for this became more obvious as other guests started arriving – we were certainly the youngest guests in there by quite a bit! Service was as efficient and friendly as last time and, once again, John Bishop popped out and welcomed all the guests (a small gesture that earns big brownie points with me). Keep in mind that Bishop's menu is heavily influenced by the season, which means that it changes regularly, so what we ordered may not necessarily be available when you go.
Considering that we were using a gift voucher that we got as a wedding gift, we decided to splurge…big time! Vodka martinis and 6 Kusshi oysters started our meal and the oysters were fresh, chilled and the accompanying dressings escalated the clean flavour of the oysters.
The appetizers currently range from $14 to $19 and offerings include a Butternut Squash Soup, a Winter Bibb and Endive Salad, as well as a Baby Beet and White Anchovy Salad. I ordered the "Outlaw Meats" Lamb and Mushroom Tortellini ($19) which was served on a parsley root puree, with browned butter and sea asparagus, and finished with crispy sage. B opted for the Sloping Hill Pork Terrine ($18) which came with garlic confit and smoked prosciutto bianco, whole wheat brioche and pickles. We both thoroughly enjoyed our appetizers.
Just so that you are prepared, entrees are not cheap at Bishop's. Prices start at $36 and climb to $41 for the most expensive dish. With only 5 entrées available, choices are limited but each dish is a different protein so there should be something that appeals to every carnivore. There was duck breast, beef tenderloin, and sablefish, in addition to the venison (which I ordered) and the tuna (which is what B ordered). The Sidney Island Venison ($37) was perfectly tender and bathed in a cider jus. The accompanying rye berry risotto complimented the meat by providing some texture and crunch. The Prosciutto Wrapped Albacore Tuna ($36) was impressive with its delicate flavour and Asian-influenced sides.
The dessert menu had a lot of tempting offerings for a dessert traditionalist like me. There was Vanilla Bean Crème Brûlée, as well as an Apple Galette, but in the end we both ordered the same thing; Mini Chocolate Soufflé Cake ($14) which was paired with vanilla ice cream and raspberry beet coulis. The soufflé was, of course, perfect. It was light and airy but with an intense chocolate flavour. The candied beet was a highlight.
Final Thoughts: Overall, our Bishop's experience left a good impression on us. I use the term "experience" because at a place like Bishop's you are getting more than just a meal at a restaurant; it is about the whole experience. You usually go to these places to celebrate a big occasion or to splurge, so it should not only be about the food but also about how you feel when you are there. However, with that said, a friend asked me that if I had to pay for it myself would I think it was worth it? And my answer was "No".
Yes, the service was flawless, the food was great, and the evening was incredibly romantic, but the prices are high. Our meal came to about $250, not including tip, so I do have a hard time trying to justify those prices. If money is no concern to you (Hello!! Can we be friends, please?) then your money certainly isn't wasted at Bishop's. But for those that value good food and don't have an unlimited bank account, perhaps just stick to two courses, rather than three.

About Simon Sips
When Midtown Lunch's Rachel Goldner stopped by Simon Sips, she was heartened not only by the foam art on her drink, but by staffers she described as "just the kind of people you want to interact with in the morning: calm, extremely nice, and helpful." Perhaps this amiability stems from the fact that the shop's baristas aren't frazzled by overly complicated drink orders—Simon's puritanical espresso menu includes only lattes, cappuccinos, and mochas. The New York Times' Oliver Strand called Simon Sips "worth seeking out" on its city guide app, The Scoop, and Midtown Lunch's readers even voted Simon Sips "Best Coffee 2012." The smell of drip coffee also fills the newly renovated space, where patrons can nibble on a daily rotating selection of muffins or especially fresh-smelling drink sleeves.

Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger have had a rough go at the domestic box office with their latest action pic Escape Plan. When it premiered last month, the $50 million film opened to a meager $10 million.
However, Escape Plan is doing much better overseas; it's up to $53.5 million at the foreign box office, according to The Wrap. The prison break movie opened to $13 million in China last week, and earned roughly $6 million from several Middle Eastern markets.
Escape Plan is currently playing in 53 foreign markets total, and will add France and Germany to that list later this week, with South Korea, Australia and Japan still ahead. Summit and equity partner Emmett/Furla sold off many of the foreign rights before the film's debut.
In truth, Arnie and Sly haven't had much luck in the U.S. as of late. Schwarzenegger's The Last Stand, which opened in January, debuted with a woeful $6.2 million domestically, and Stallone's Bullet to the Head made even less, opening to $4.5 million in February.
The action stars could be on an upswing, though, as they prep new projects more in their respective wheelhouses: Schwarzenegger will begin shooting Paramount's Terminator 5 this April; meanwhile, Stallone will next be seen alongside Robert De Niro in Warner Bros' boxing pic Grudge Match.

The Lions (8-4) put on an offensive display on Thanksgiving while the Buccaneers (2-10) continue to remind everyone that they are not a very good football team. Coverage of Sunday's game will air on FOX beginning at 1:00 pm ET from Ford Field in Detroit, MI.
The Odds: The Lions are 9.5 point favorites against the Buccaneers. The over/under for this game is 41.5 total points.
Given that the Lions are at home and coming off a thrashing of the Bears it would seem hard for the Buccaneers to stay in this one. However, much like the Cowboys, the Lions continue to have to answer questions about their ability to play late in the season. Will this be the year they step up or do the Buccaneers sting them for their third win of the year?

As the western gateway to Australia and Australia's western window to the world, Perth occupies a unique geographic and economic position.
It is Australia's closest and most accessible capital city to the world's strongest economic growth regions and has evolved into a major hub for air travel, freight and logistics.
Serviced by 18 major international airlines and 12 regional and domestic carriers, Perth enjoys the shortest travel times of any Australian state capital city to key markets in Africa, the Middle East, Europe, the United Kingdom and most Asian markets.
Its evolution from a relatively isolated city of a decade ago to one of the world's most livable cities is an exercise in smart growth that is aimed at addressing urban challenges directly and sustainably.
Underlining the importance of the efficient mobility of people and goods to economic advantage is the redevelopment of Perth Airport. In the past six years, more than $1 billion of capital works, including 92 projects valued at over $5 million each, has been completed or commenced at the airport. The operations add approximately $2.6 billion to the State's gross regional product annually, and this is estimated to grow to $7 billion a year by 2034.
Over the past decade, the airport has experienced growth rates of nine per cent per annum. The number of passengers to pass through the airport is expected to surge from 14 million in 2014 to more than 28 million by 2034.
Perth Airport's redevelopment into one of the best airports in the Asia-Pacific region included the opening of Terminal 2 and the expansion and upgrade of Terminals 1 and 3 in 2015. This will see all commercial air services, with the exception of Qantas and those in the general aviation area, consolidated into one precinct. The airport is located on a 2,105ha estate that has been developed into a road and rail freight logistics precinct.
Complementing the airport upgrade is the Gateway WA Perth Airport and Freight Access Project. This $1 billion investment in the road network is driven by the expected doubling of freight, particularly to the resource-rich Pilbara region, and an increase in the population of Perth and Peel to 2.44 million by 2026.
The Port of Fremantle, which operates through two harbours, is the State's largest and busiest general cargo port, and an important historical site.
The Inner Harbour handles almost all of Western Australia's container trade and provides facilities for livestock exports, motor vehicle imports, other general cargo trades, cruise ships and visiting naval vessels.
The Outer Harbour is one of Australia's major bulk cargo ports, handling grain, petroleum, liquid petroleum gas, alumina, mineral sands, fertilisers and other bulk commodities.

text: When I first got the car a year ago, after a standard mode charge it would show 299-300 km; occasionally 301 km. Almost a year later it was usually showing 299. Recently I gave the car a rather good workout. Couple of Range mode charges and a couple of days of "spirited" driving (mostly in Standard mode but some Performance). At one point the PEM caused a power limit, and immediately afterwards I noticed the PEM fan was getting noisy. I expect it will have to be replaced during the upcoming annual service (it just passed its first "birthday"). Ever since that weekend it's been charging to 294 or 295 km. Does this lower range indication actually mean anything?

This is the first monthly column from Churches Together in North Shields. Who and what is Churches Together?
Here's a short introduction.
Churches and other Christian organisations in North Shields have pledged to work together, as indeed they have done for many years.
Some of the things we do together include services for the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity, Good Friday (with open-air drama and procession), Christian Aid Week and Pentecost and a Christmas carol service at the start of the Victorian Christmas market weekend, which will be on Saturday, December 12, at 10am this year.
We also produce a joint newsletter four times a year and are involved with Christian Aid Week collections and events.
We also support two organisations, Nite Bite, and New to the UK.
Nite Bite provides a free, hot, three-course meal for the homeless on Tuesdays between 4pm and 6pm and currently has up to 30 people attending.
The New to the UK drop-in meets on Wednesdays from 11am to 1pm and provides help and support for asylum seekers.
Both meet at the same venue – North Shields Baptist Church, in Howard Street.
Churches Together meets three times a year as a forum, with representatives of all churches attending.
More will follow next month.

Farm Foundation Forum Event
November 1, 2012 Leave a comment
What the 2012 election means for agriculture, food and rural policy will be the focus of the Farm Foundation® Forum on Wednesday, Nov. 14, 2012. The Forum will be 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. EST at the National Press Club, 529 14th St. NW, Washington D.C.
For those unable to attend the Forum at the Press Club, a live webcast will be available free of charge. This will be the first time Farm Foundation, NFP has webcast the Forum, though audio of the sessions has been provided for several years.
"By their votes on Nov. 6, citizens will set the stage for the next four years of the nation's policy development at both the state and federal level," says Foundation President Neil Conklin. "This Forum is an opportunity to examine how those elections may specifically impact agriculture, food and rural policies in the months ahead."
Speakers providing insights on potential policy developments will be:
- Craig Jagger, Legis Consulting
- Ferd Hoefner, Policy Director, National Sustainable Agriculture Coalition
- Robert Paarlberg, Professor of Political Science, Wellesley College
- Christopher Waldrop, Director of the Food Policy Institute, Consumer Federation of America
- John Hardin, Indiana farmer
- Erik Johnston, Associate Legislative Director for Agriculture and Rural Affairs, National Association of Counties
After their brief presentations, the floor will be opened for discussion.
There is no charge to participate in the Forum–either in person or by webcast.
To attend in person, please RSVP by sending an e-mail to Farm Foundation, NFP by noon Monday, Nov. 12.

He might be known for his fancy food and Oscar parties, but Wolfgang Puck has some advice for all of us on portion control: "You only should eat as much so you can go home, make love and not fall asleep," he tells PEOPLE in an exclusive interview.
Sounds like a pretty good motivator for not overindulging.
Puck is pictured above in a 15-year-old photo with the late radio personality Andy Moes, who died of heart failure in 2001. (Puck admits that the two shared a love of good food.) Since then, the chef has had plenty of experience in the lifestyle-overhaul department: As the author of new book Wolfgang Puck Makes It Healthy, he was inspired to write about his experience losing 25 pounds and starting a new exercise regime.
As it is for many who gain weight, the pounds crept on slowly. "Working in the kitchen is a hazard because you can eat and drink whatever you want, and I didn't realize how much I was eating until my clothes weren't fitting me," he says. When a friend snapped a picture of him asleep on the beach, Puck knew
he had to act. "I said, 'Jesus Christ, I didn't know I was that fat!'"
Not willing to sacrifice flavor in his quest for healthier food, Puck began developing new recipes with fewer calories and less fat. The pizza recipe he shares below has a crust that's made with a mix of whole wheat and regular flour. For toppings, he uses just four ounces of prosciutto for the entire pie and supplements it with arugula and melon, low-calorie foods that are filling because they're high in fiber.
Before serving, he drizzles the finished pizza with aged balsamic vinegar, one of his favorite pantry staples. "We all love it in my house, even my kids, and the acidity and sweetness will enhance pretty much any dish," he says.
Of course, Puck cautions that even the healthiest diet won't work if you don't work out: "There's really no excuse for not exercising and you don't need to go the gym with all those big machines — I put a mat on my floor and jump rope, do my push ups, sit ups, jumping jacks, all right in my living room."
One of Puck's favorite things about slimming down has been getting back to doing what he loves outside the kitchen. "Now I can go skiing with my older boys again and beat them on the slalom. I can play tennis on Maui for an hour in the heat without sitting down. So now I'm 64 years old and I ski better and play better tennis than 15 years ago," he said.
Watch our exclusive interview with Puck, then dig into his prosciutto pizza — with zero guilt!
Prosciutto Pizza
Serves 8
Whole wheat yeast dough (recipe below), formed into 4 equal balls
½ cup light sun-dried tomato pesto
1 lb. fresh mozzarella cheese, drained and thinly sliced
4 oz. prosciutto, thinly sliced
½ cup melon, cut into ¼-inch cubes (optional)
½ cup packed baby arugula leaves
2 tbsp. aged balsamic vinegar
1. Place a pizza stone or baker's tiles on the middle rack of the oven and preheat the oven to 500 degrees.
2. Dip a ball of dough into flour and shake off excess.
3. Place the ball on a clean, lightly floured surface and start to stretch it out, pressing down on the center and spreading the dough into an 8-inch circle with a slightly thicker rim. (If you find this difficult, use a small rolling pin to help, and then pinch up the rim.) Repeat with other dough balls.
4. Brush each circle with the pesto, staying within the rim. Evenly distribute the fresh mozzarella slices on top.
5. Using a floured pizza paddle or rimless baking sheet, transfer the pizzas to the stone or tiles. Bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust is nicely browned, 8-10 minutes. Remove from the oven and drape the prosciutto on top.
6. Dot the prosciutto with melon cubes, scatter the arugula leaves on top and drizzle with balsamic vinegar.
7. Transfer to a cutting board and cut into slices. Serve immediately.
Whole Wheat Yeast Dough
1 tablespoon active dry yeast
1½ cups lukewarm (80°F) water
1 tbsp. honey
1¾ cups all-purpose flour, divided
1¾ cups whole wheat flour, divided
1½ tbsp. kosher salt
5 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
1. Fit a stand mixer with the whisk attachment and stir together the yeast, water, and honey until the yeast has dissolved.
2. Stir in 1 cup all-purpose flour and 1 cup whole wheat flour just until a soft, loose dough forms. Cover with a clean towel and set aside for 20 minutes, ideally in a warm room.
3. Add the remaining all-purpose and whole wheat flours (¾ cup of each), salt and olive oil to the loose dough. Fit the stand mixer with the dough hook and mix on the second-lowest speed for 1 minute. Stop and scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Continue mixing on medium speed until the dough looks well-developed and elastic, 8-10 minutes more.
4. Remove the bowl from the mixer, cover with a damp kitchen towel, and set aside to rest for 10 minutes.
5. If making pizza, divide the dough into 4 equal balls. On a floured work surface, work each ball with clean hands by pulling down all around its sides and tucking under the bottom of the ball, repeating this four or five times to form an even, compact ball.
6. On a smooth, unfloured surface, roll the ball under your palm until its top feels firm and smooth, about 1 minute. Cover the balls with a damp towel and leave to rest for 15-20 minutes. (If desired, you can wrap the balls in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 2 days. Remove from the refrigerator and let the dough come to room temperature before using.)

I understand that the fundamentals in commodities are at the low of the cycle and the fear around the 'old' China hard landing story have hit a high, but has it gone too far?
This morning CME copper is on the verge of having a US$1 handle in front of it, something it has had since May 2009. It's still a long way off the 2009 low of US$1.25 a pound, but the level of short interest in copper hit a net short of 29,000 shorts for non-commercial as of last Tuesday which will have only increased in the past seven days and that is also at 2009 levels. The perma-bears are flexing their strength.
On a technical level, copper over the past nine days has an RSI of 5, this is a record low suggesting the selling has gotten to 'silly' levels. 'Old' China is slowing but it's not ending; however, the current trade in copper suggests it has. There must be a snap back in the offing over the next few days – be aware of the short squeeze that is brewing.
What's caught my attention
Brent was once again all over the place in intraday trade. The closing price shows a solid increase over the intraday period, yet that completely disguises the fact it shifted through US$1.96 a barrel range twice in the US session on a Saudi report stating it's finally ready to work with OPEC, and even non-OPEC nations, to 'stabilise' prices through production changes.
The bears see the China demand story coupled with increases to the Fed funds rate as a reason to short oil. Brent shorts from the non-commercial space hit a net short position of 141,000 contracts, the most since October 2014 last Tuesday – clearly the bears are still in control, but some money has been taken off the table.
What is also pilling on the pressure in the oil price this year is seasonally not materialising. With El Niño currently in effect, US demand for heating was -22% below average last week 48% lower than this time last year.
The supply/demand remains inconsistent and even with production moderation from OPEC, lower prices remains more likely than not.
Iron ore continues to inch towards that June decade low of US$44.59 a tonne trading at US$44.74 a tonne in Qingdao yesterday. China perma-bear Andy Xie created a bit of stir yesterday when he stated he sees iron ore in the US$30 handle for all of 2016 as China demand sputters. Not a good sign for Australian terms of trade or material firms.
BHP's ADR is calling the Big Australia down 1.8% to $19.70, which will be the second closing test of $20 handle. The copper and iron ore story is willing it into the teens.
ASX remains disconnected to the underlying commodities story with five consecutive positive prints. The relationship with the TSX has now completely broken down and the ASX remains the best-performing developed index globally over the past seven days. The flows back into the banks is interesting considering the housing clearance rates in Sydney and Melbourne. How long can the ASX hold onto the gains of the past week?
Ahead of the Australian Open
Ahead of the open, we are calling the ASX down eight points to 5268 – with perma-bears savaging commodities materials remain the key target. However CBA's ADR is suggesting it will only shed a handful of cents which will moderate the likely decline.

Congratulations to the Alphabet network which has come out on top this TV season as the network to gain the most in the Nielsen race and come out on top in the 18-49 demo, the one most loved by advertisers.
The Disney-owned network which had three shows in the top-4 last week has certainly gone a long way since the troubled post-Millionaire times when it struggled with its low-rated line-up. Unable to develop a hit, one of its most watched programs at the time was the notorious Martin Bashir Michael Jackson interview.
Ever since the arrival of new scripted dramas "Desperate Housewives" and "Lost" in 2004, the network had been on the rise. Last year it successfully launched "Grey's Anatomy", a medical show that has grown into a monster hit on Thursday nights eclipsing all CSI franchises on CBS and becoming the #1 scripted drama in America so far this season.
The network also airs "Dancing with the Stars", the most popular reality contest in the country (at least until the return of FOX's "American Idol" in January) and despite poor lead-in retention ABC's "Help Me Help You" is the highest rated new comedy.
Finally, ABC is the first network to pick up the second new show for a full season of 22 episodes. Following the success of "Ugly Betty" on Thursday nights, Sunday night drama "Brothers and Sisters" starring Sally Field was also given the 9-episode back order. And unlike other networks ABC has yet to cancel any of the rookie shows.
There in no longer any doubt; the Mickey Mouse network is on fire.

ORLANDO — Walt Disney Productions, as part of its efforts to boost the company`s worth for shareholders, may sell and later lease back some of its assets, including its hotels and parts of its theme parks in Florida and California.
Disney may sell individual pavilions at Disney World`s Epcot Center near Orlando while retaining control of the pavilions through lease-back contracts, sources told The Wall Street Journal.
Disney Chairman Michael D. Eisner denied in the Journal story that Disney is considering a block sale of either its Disney World or Disneyland parks but said ``that`s not to say there couldn`t be individual deals happening.``
Disney spokesman Erwin Okun said Friday that Disney has talked with several companies, including Hyatt Corp. and Marriott Corp., about the sale of Disney hotels or the construction of hotels under joint-venture agreements.
Walt Disney Productions stock climbed $5.25 to $89.62 a share Thursday as word of the possible restructuring spread.
A Marriott spokesman refused Friday to say whether Disney had contacted the company. A Hyatt spokeswoman, however, confirmed that Disney and Hyatt have talked, though she refused to elaborate.
Okun refused to confirm that Disney plans to sell any pavilions at Epcot Center. Disney took pains in a memo distributed Thursday to its 19,000 Disney World employees to assure them that it will ``maintain full control of our assets and parks in perpetuity.`` But it stopped short of saying that it would not sell off parts of the theme parks.
Okun said that Disney`s plan to sell some of its assets, under study for the past 18 months, represents an effort to ``maximize shareholder values.`` He stressed that Disney`s theme parks ``are not for sale. Even with a financial restructuring, there will be no change in the parks` personnel or practices.``
Lee Isgur, an analyst with Paine Webber in New York, said Disney`s plan is not new. He said former president and chief executive officer Ron Miller considered lease-back arrangements before he was ousted by Disney`s board last September.

Why not just have one big one, because the actual cpu is one piece.
No doubt. And that has always been their Ace card. And NO DOUBT, an AMD CPU serves as an EXCELLENT and RELIABLE Windows platform.
I do think however, AMD has a higher performance/price ratio.
I was not suggesting AMD has heat or voltage problems. I am just saying when comparing CPU with CPU, the current line of Intels tend to generate less heat. But what does that mean? It means a few degrees on paper and a slightly better efficiency. But in practice for the end user, it means nothing.
I have no issues with heat or voltages as you can see.
So bottom line, my Ford F150 is better than your Chevy Silverado. So there!

Aviation safety expert John Cox helped investigate the fatal crash of Air France flight 447 in 2009. More than 200 people were lost in that crash, considered one of the worst accident in French aviation history. Researchers now believe a stall was caused by iced-over instruments and two copilots with no training in manual aircraft handling at high altitude. They tipped the nose of the plane up, causing it to lose lift and speed as it climbed, instead of down, which would have increased the speed and prevented a stall.

In September we announced that the NHS Staff Council had agreed to publish a new Band 6 paramedic profile along with technical guidance from JEG to help local matching panels evaluate their current paramedic roles.
It has taken a little longer than hoped, but we are very pleased to welcome the publication of the profile by the NHS Staff Council. The significance of this development should not be underestimated.
The production of this profile has taken two years of joint collaborative work between trade unions, partnership working with employers and other national groups and bodies.
There is still much to do. The final agreement needs to be signed up to by all parties involved.
Each ambulance service will then need to undertake a local job matching process, in partnership with local trade unions, to evaluate their paramedic roles.
As the matching is done on a trust by trust basis, we cannot guarantee every paramedic band 6. However we have agreed that, in the event of a paramedic matching to the new band 6 profile, the effective date for pay purposes, will be 31 December 2016.
For more details, please see the frequently asked questions which will help explain the detail behind the package and how the transition will work.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0375700315, Paperback)"If Raymond Chandler, Dashiell Hammett and Cornell Woolrich could have joined together in some ungodly union and produced a literary offspring, Jim Thompson would be it. " --Washington Post
Clinton Brown is smart, good-looking, and the best rewrite man on the Pacific City Courier. The wife he divorced is still in love with him, as is the alluring and well-heeled widow who will do anything to make him happy. But Brown is missing something, and without that one thing there's no possibility of happiness--no possibility of anything but knocking back the booze and punishing anyone foolish enough to try to take away his loneliness. What Clinton Brown lacks may be enough to make him murder.
Is Brown a killer or the victim of a sadistic frame-up? And if he's innocent, why is he so intent on being caught? Deviously plotted, fearfully acquainted with the psychology of rage and guilt, The Nothing Man is further proof of Jim Thompson's mastery of the crime genre.

The idea that Israeli construction in the West Bank and east Jerusalem is the main obstacle to achieving peace with the Palestinians is "nonsense," Israel's new Consul-General in New York, Dani Dayan, said in an interview this week, the Jerusalem Post reports.
"It can be proven almost mathematically. The Arabs did not recognize Israel before even one so-called settlement existed, that is a fact; Israel withdrew from the Gaza Strip, removing even the graves of our dead from there, and all we got is a launching pad for new aggression against Israelis, also a well-known fact that cannot be disputed…
"Settlements can be an obstacle to anything only if you believe that if a Palestinian state is established, it should be ethnically cleansed of Jewish presence. Imagine for a moment Nelson Mandela saying that he wants majority rule, but not only majority rule, also the expulsion of all white persons from South Africa. Would he be the Nelson Mandela we admire? No. But for some reason, when Mahmoud Abbas says that, no one calls him to order."

My son and I both get Lyme rages. What I have been told is that they are worse when a person's inflammation is worse. So, if I have eaten badly or missed my supplements, or not detoxed in a few days then I am more likely to have an episode. Our primary treatment for Lyme is a R.I.F.E. machine and if my son goes more than one week without a treatment, I can see that his worsen, too.
So - the question becomes how to reduce inflammation? Detoxing, eating a "clean" diet, taking something to absorb toxins (we use Shilajit), and drinking good clean water.
If we stick to these guidelines we both feel much better and the rages are greatly reduced. The problem is that my son is 19 and he wants to do what his friends are doing, so staying up late, eating fast food, smoking cigarettes, etc. I stay on him about his supplements and he is really good about the detox baths. He is starting to realize that he feels better is he uses the R.I.F.E. machine regularly so he is getting better about sticking to his treatment schedule. So I am happy with progress.
Good luck!

AT THE PLATE: The center fielders put on a power show, Joc Pederson of the Dodgers crushing his fifth home run of the spring to deep left-center field in the second inning and Mike Trout of the Angels driving his fourth homer well beyond the wall in left-center in the fifth. Angels left fielder Matt Joyce, a career .189 hitter against left-handers, had a double and single off Dodgers left-hander David Huff, increasing his chances of getting more at-bats against left-handers this season. "It's encouraging to see," Manager Mike Scioscia said. "Hopefully he'll bring this comfort level into the season." Alex Guerrero of the Dodgers and Erick Aybar of the Angels also hit solo homers.
ON THE MOUND: Angels starter Matt Shoemaker gave up four runs and five hits, including two homers, in six innings, striking out two and walking two, throwing 80 pitches in 97-degree heat. Left-hander Jose Alvarez, in the running for a bullpen spot, threw a scoreless inning, and closer Huston Street gave up one run and two hits in the eighth. Huff allowed one run and six hits in 3 1/3 innings.
EXTRA BASES: Zack Greinke will make his final start of the spring in a minor league game Wednesday — instead of in the Freeway Series on Thursday — so the Dodgers can better control the right-hander's workload. … Angels left-hander Hector Santiago will pitch in a minor league game Monday. … Angels right fielder Kole Calhoun returned after missing two games because of a bruised right triceps and made a nice catch of a Yasmani Grandal drive to the gap after a long run in the fourth. … Angels third baseman David Freese, out since Wednesday because of a hyperextended left elbow, is expected to play Sunday. … The Angels optioned reliever Cam Bedrosian to triple-A and reassigned left-hander Adam Wilk to minor league camp.
ANGELS UP NEXT: Cincinnati Reds, noon Sunday at Tempe Diablo Stadium. On the air: TV: FS West; Radio: 830.
DODGERS UP NEXT: San Francisco Giants, 1 p.m. Sunday at Camelback Ranch. On the air: TV: SNLA. Radio: 570.

All eukaryotic messenger RNAs are derived from precursors, the pre-mRNAs, by an extensive series of nuclear modifi cations. Most notably, the removal of introns and the joining of the remaining exons in the process of pre-mRNA splicing is essential to generate mRNAs that are suitable templates for translation. The vast majority of human pre-mRNAs undergo alternative splicing, in which different RNA parts are either included or omitted in the mature mRNA. This process allows individual genes to generate multiple proteins and makes alternative pre-mRNA splicing a central element in gene regulation. Although pre-mRNA splicing occurs with high fidelity, an increasing number of diseases have been linked to defects that lead to mis-spliced mRNAs.
This book was written for graduate and medical students, as well as clinicians and postdoctoral researchers. It describes the theory of alternative pre-mRNA splicing in twelve introductory chapters and then introduces protocols and their theoretical background relevant for experimental research. These 43 practical chapters cover: Basic methods, Detection of splicing events, Analysis of alternative pre-mRNA splicing in vitro and in vivo, Manipulation of splicing events, and Bioinformatic analysis of alternative splicing. A theoretical introduction and practical guide for molecular biologists, geneticists,clinicians and every researcher interested in alternative splicing.

Philadelphia Phillies OF Brian Bogusevic is not starting Sunday, Sept. 27, against the Washington Nationals. OF Jeff Francoeur is in right field and hitting fifth against Nationals SP Gio Gonzalez.
Fantasy Tip: Bogusevic ($1,900, 3.8% of cap) bats left, so the presence of Gonzalez has him on the bench for today. Francoeur ($3,200, 6.4% of cap) is not worth the price, not with a .083 average in the last week.

Fantasy Tip: Sweeney ($2,100, 4.2% of cap) gets a night off after being in the lineup for 15 straight games, and it looks like all this is for Sweeney is a night off. Bogusevic should have a few at-bats in him before you invest a bit of salary cap money.

Presentation given to the American Folklore Society: Archives and Library Section Conference: AdvInArchiving2017_ArcDTriumph-DigitalLinking (1), Minneapolis, Minnesota, October 16, 2017
Presented by:
- Andrea Payant, Metadata Librarian
- Sara Skindelien, EAD and Metadata Specialist
- Liz Woolcott, Head of Cataloging and Metadata Services
As archives work to make their folklore and other special collections material available online, the segregation of finding aids and digital collections in silos presents a discovery and usability problem for patrons. Researchers discovering a finding aid for an oral history collection may not know that the recordings are digitized and available online in a separate database or vice versa. How can the workflows that feed these two different discovery points be combined to improve access to these valuable collections?
Utah State University (USU) Libraries realized that a cross-departmental workflow was necessary to connect both new and legacy finding aids with their digitized content to improve use and access. For legacy collections, the library created a low-tech process for semi-automating the batch linking of item and box level entries in EAD finding aids to the corresponding digitized material in CONTENTdm. For new collections, particularly born digital collections, the process enabled USU Libraries to simultaneously create a digital collection and a digitally linked finding aid all in one process.
In addition to the obvious benefit of linking finding aid inventories to their digital counterparts, this process implemented persistent identifiers that ensured the links would be consistent over time, even if databases were changed. The metadata staff minted ARKs identifiers for each object and crafted links between the finding aid and the digital library using those static ARKs instead of the system supplied URLs. This small, but important extra step will provide the flexibility to accommodate database migration in the future.
These processes used low-tech, familiar tools to lower the barrier for engaging more staff and student help in the work. This presentation will provide session participants with a discussion of the process, access to detailed step-by-step instructions, and will address future developments.

Delia Nelson is new to Camp Half-Blood. She doesn't understand why no one ever told her "Hey, you're a demigod." if so many people knew about her. And the whole Greek Mythology thing never really intrigued her. But now, she has to adjust to a new life full of it. Especially because her parent is a god or goddess. On top of all that, everyone at camp is freaking out because some "Great Prophecy" seems to be happening right before their eyes. Only the prophecy isn't really that great, and it could involve a lot of deaths. And of course, Delia has something to do with it.

WEST PALM BEACH — American companies that want to engage in world trade will learn that the government is one of their biggest supporters, a U.S. Commerce Department official told a group of Palm Beach County business people at a banquet Wednesday night.
The banquet was sponsored by the World Trade Council of Palm Beach County and was attended by more than 100 people at the Hyatt Palm Beaches.
Paula Unruh, deputy director of the Commerce Department`s U.S. and Foreign Commercial Service, said that helping trade is ``one of the driving forces of world prosperity.
``Modern transportation and communications have brought world trade to a new high, but I don`t think we`ve even begun the tap the potential out there for the small- to medium-sized business to be involved in.``
Before the banquet, James Stuber, a Palm Beach attorney who serves as president of the World Trade Council, said only lack of awareness and information stand in the way of potentially profitable deals overseas. Many local people, he said, are simply hesitant about crossing international boundaries.
``There`s plenty of reason for expanding our international trade,`` Stuber said. ``It`s hard to think of a business that couldn`t profit by going into the international market.``
While local business people hesitate, their foreign counterparts are well established in Palm Beach County, dealing more and more in real estate and consumer electronics, he added.
``I have the impression that it`s quite significant,`` he said. ``That`s based on talking to individuals here doing it. I`ve met people here from France, Canada, Latin America and the Far East today making significant investments in the county.``

Nicene and Ante-Nicene Fathers, Ser. II, Vol. III:Early Church Fathers Index Previous Next
Life and Works of Rufinus with Jerome's Apology Against Rufinus.: I translated the Περὶ ᾽Αρχῶν because you demanded it, and because his translation slurred over Origen's heresies.
6. His followers object to me, (and
3011 "Weary of work
They ply the arms of Ceres,")
that I have translated into the Latin tongue the books of Origen Περὶ ᾽Αρχῶν, which are pernicious and repugnant to the faith of the Church. My answer to them is brief and succinct: "Your letters, my brother Pammachius, and those of your friends, have compelled me. You declared that these books had been falsely translated by another, and that not a few things had been interp. 486 polated or added or altered. And, lest your letters should fail to carry conviction, you sent a copy of this translation, together with the Preface in which I was praised. As soon as I had run my eye over these documents, I at once noticed that the impious doctrine enunciated by Origen about the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, to which the ears of Romans could not bear to listen, had been changed by the translator so as to give a more orthodox meaning. His other doctrines, on the fall of the angels, the lapse of human souls, his prevarications about the resurrection, his ideas about the world, or rather Epicuruss middle-spaces, 3012 on the restitution of all to a state of equality, and others much worse than these, which it would take too long to recount, I found that he had either translated as they stood in the Greek, or had stated them in a stronger and exaggerated manner in words taken from the books of Didymus, who is the most open champion of Origen. The effect of all this is that the reader, finding that the book expressed the catholic doctrine on the Trinity, would take in these heretical views without warning.
Æn: i, 177.
Cerealiaque arma
Expediunt, fessi rerum.486:3012
Intermundia. Spaces between the worlds, in which, according to Epicurus, the Gods reside.
Next: My translation put away ambiguities, and showed the real character of the book, and of the previous translation.

St. Aloysius Gonzaga (1568-1591)
The Patron Saint of AIDS Patients and Caregivers
As the eldest son and heir of a wealthy family in 16th century Spain, Aloysius was expected to marry well, raise a family, expand the Gonzagas' wealth and influence, and, if the opportunity arose, slaughter their enemies. Yet secretly he was planning to renounce his title and become a Jesuit priest. At age fifteen, he revealed his intentions to his parents. He gave up his inheritance and set off to become a Jesuit novitiate in Rome.
Aloysius was aggressive and unyielding, with a pronounced antagonistic streak. He brought the same ferocious energy to religious life that his ancestors had carried onto the battlefield.
Suspecting that the young nobleman needed to learn the virtues of obedience and humility, the Jesuit superior sent Aloysius to work in one of the city's hospitals. Aloysius did as he was told, but he loathed every minute of it. It took all his Gonzaga willpower to get through each day.
Aloysius had a change of heart, however. In January 1591 a terrible epidemic struck Rome. Soon the city's hospitals were overwhelmed with patients, so convents and monasteries threw open their doors. Aloysius went out every day to collect the sick and dying. He found beds for them, washed them, fed them, comforted them, and prayed with them. Sadly, his heroic service lasted only a few weeks; he himself fell victim to the epidemic and died.
In recent years, AIDS patients and their caregivers have adopted as their patron St. Aloysius Gonzaga, the man who overcame his fear of the sick and the dying and became their most kindhearted nurse.
