Magistrates court (Northern Territory)
The magistrates' court is the generic name given to a lower court constituted by magistrates and justices of the peace in the Northern Territory, a territory of Australia. There is no actual magistrates court, and the reference to the court is usually a reference to the building. The magistrates court are the first tier in the Northern Territorian court system. The magistrates also have jurisdiction to hear matters in a number of other courts, such as the Juvenile Court, the Family Matters Court, Local Court, Small Claims Court and the Work Health Court.
Magistrates courts can be constituted by a stipendiary magistrate or by justices of the peace. The Administrator of the Northern Territory may appoint stipendiary magistrates under the Magistrates Act (NT). The administrator may also appoint a Chief Stipendiary Magistrate and Deputy Chief Stipendiary Magistrates. A stipendiary magistrate receives payment by way of a salary for performing those duties.
Justices of the Peace may specifically sit as the Court of Summary Jurisdiction. In certain cases, there must two justices sitting together. In other cases, a justice can sit alone. Justices are an honorary appointment, and so are not paid for their service to the courts.
Types of magistrates' courts[edit]
Criminal cases are dealt with by the Court of Summary Jurisdiction of the Northern Territory. The court is established under the Justices Act (NT). These are the less serious criminal cases. In certain cases, a single justice of the peace may deal with a criminal matter if both the prosecution and the defendant agree. In serious cases (e.g. Murder), the court must commit the person for trial to the Supreme Court of the Northern Territory. The Local Court of the Northern Territory deals with civil cases. It is established under the Local Courts Act (NT). It can hear debt and damage claims up to a maximum of $100,000. Amounts under $10,000 are heard in the Small Claim Division of the court. The local court has the power to grant adoptions and determine appeals against decisions of certain statutory officers. A magistrate constitutes this court. The Youth Justice Court is established by the Youth Justice Act (NT). It hears charges against young offenders. A Youth is a person who is under the age of 18 at the time of being charged or appearing before the court The Community Court of the Northern Territory aims to achieve community involvement in the sentencing process and to broaden the sentencing process .
The Family Matters Court of the Northern Territory is established under the Community Welfare Act (NT). It makes orders in respect of the welfare or guardianship of children considered to be in need of care. The court is constituted by a Magistrate.
The Work Health Court of the Northern Territory deals with workers' compensation claims. Each Magistrate constitutes the court, and in certain circumstances, a judicial registrar or a registrar may also constitute the court.
The Alcohol Court of the Northern Territory deals with alcohol dependency that leads to crime to reduce the incidence of crime, help to rehabilitate offenders, and improve health and social amenity.
Magistrates also hold the office of the Coroner. The administrator may also appoint a Territory Coroner under the Coroners Act (NT). Coroners hold inquests into deaths.
All Law in the Northern Territory falls under Commercial Code providing Criminal Acts in Statute Law. Common Law has been unused in the Northern Territory for at least 25 years. Constitutional Law is not valid under the Magistrates Courts of the Northern Territory, all laws are created in Legislation or Commercial Statutes.

FAIRBANKS (AP) The Fairbanks North Star Borough asked a Superior Court judge Monday to reject a liquor industry association's attempt to keep an alcohol tax question off the Oct. 7 ballot.
The Interior Cabaret, Hotel, Restaurant and Retailers Association sued the borough Aug. 8, saying the ballot question is too ambiguous.
The measure asks voters to levy a 5 percent tax on retail sales of alcohol with ''limited exemptions'' for alcohol sales taxed by the cities of Fairbanks and North Pole.
In its response to the lawsuit, the borough suggests the association is more interested in profit margins than the democratic process.
''Perhaps the 'injury' ICHRRA really fears is voter ratification of a tax they disfavor, and the consequential difficulty in persuading a court to overrule the will of the people,'' wrote assistant borough attorney Joseph W. Miller.
Miller argued that to delay the question for further review would spur a costly special election, and special elections typically have much lower voter turnout than general elections.
For alcohol consumers, the tax would only affect beverages sold outside the city of Fairbanks, which already has a 5 percent alcohol tax.
In North Pole, where there's a 3 percent sales tax, the borough would add a 2 percent tax on alcohol. The net effect is that all alcohol sold in the borough would be taxed at 5 percent.
The borough's plan is to collect the tax borough-wide and remit to the two cities their parts, minus a 10 percent fee.
ICHRRA attorney Peter Aschenbrenner said more details on how that would work particularly details affecting liquor sellers need to be worked out.
For example, sellers ought to know what penalties for late payments and audit requirements the borough would enact, Aschenbrenner said.
''This is not about whether you like or don't like the liquor industry or like or don't like election lawsuits,'' Aschenbrenner said.
In the municipality's response to the lawsuit, Miller wrote that the assembly still has time to change the ballot question and accompanying ordinance if the court agrees that the question is unclear. Therefore, stopping the ballot question is not necessary, he said.

User Home Pages: The Amme Family Tree
|I began my research into the Amme family history in late 1965 while awaiting induction into the U.S. Army. I collected facts on about 150-200 Amme's in 5 geographical branches, i.e., Philadelphia, PA; Harrisonville, NJ; Cleveland, OH; Charleston, SC; Minneapolis, MN; and Boone, IA.Wherever I found a cluster of Amme's, I used that location to name the branch.Each of these 5 branches in not related to the other as far as I could tell except as may be found upon further research in Germany.I stopped my research when I went into the Army, got married, etc.After 35 years (2003) I have decided to put my notes into the computer (Family Tree Maker) and complete all the trees as much as possible.Please contact me with any additions, errors or corrections.Family trees are always a work in progress!

WASHINGTON — A steep fall in gas costs pushed down a measure of U.S. consumer prices last month, keeping inflation mild.
The seasonally adjusted consumer price index dropped 0.3 percent in November from October, the Labor Department said Friday, Dec. 14. Gas prices fell 7.4 percent, the biggest drop in nearly four years. That offset a 0.2 percent rise in food prices.
In the past year, consumer prices have risen 1.8 percent, down from October's 12-month increase of 2.2 percent.
Excluding the volatile food and gas categories, prices ticked up 0.1 percent in November. Core prices have risen 1.9 percent in the past year — below the Federal Reserve's annual target of 2 percent.
Higher rents, airline fares and new cars pushed up core prices last month. The cost of clothing and used cars fell.
"In simplest terms, inflation is not a problem," Jim Baird, chief investment strategist at Plante Moran Financial Advisors, said. Lower inflation "is a real positive that should provide modest relief for households dealing with limited income growth."
High unemployment and slow wage growth have made businesses reluctant to raise prices. Many worry higher prices could drive away customers. That's helped keep inflation tame.
Modest inflation leaves consumers with more money to spend, which can boost economic growth. Lower inflation also makes it easier for the Fed to continue with its efforts to rekindle the economy. If the Fed were worried that prices are rising too fast, it might have to raise interest rates.
The increase in food prices was smaller than many economists expected. This summer's drought in the Midwest, which scorched corn and soybean crops, has pushed up food prices. But the increase hasn't been dramatic so far. Food costs have risen 1.8 percent in the past 12 months.
Some items have seen big increases. The cost of milk, cheese and other dairy products have risen 0.8 percent in each of the past two months. That could reflect the higher cost of animal feed, which usually includes corn and soybeans. Cereals and baked goods rose 0.3 percent last month. But prices for the broad category of meat, chicken, fish and eggs fell in November, after a big gain the previous month.
Shoppers may face further increases soon. Wholesale food costs jumped 1.3 percent last month, according to a separate report Thursday, the most in nearly two years.

My girlfriend's drifting awayVisitor's Question from a 21-30 year old Male
Over the past few months, my girlfriend has become increasingly distant, moody, and less affectionate. This is in stark contrast to how our relationship used to be, for example, we used to have a very active and varied sex-life; now, and this is the truth, we haven't had sex in more than a month! Also, she never seems to want to make time for us, allow me to explain; My girlfriend has a child from a previous relationship, this poses no problems and I regard her as my own and she looks upon me as an extra dad. Unfortunately having a child depletes the amount of time available, to my girlfriend and I, in which to have some 'quality time' as the child only spends one night a week at her fathers (Friday night to Saturday evening). This precious period of time, in an otherwise hectic week, we used to reserve for ourselves and spend either by going out, having a cosy night in with a meal and a bottle of wine or, if the mood took us, indulging in more adventurous sex play (as opposed to the quick, quiet one with the lights out incase we wake the little girl).
Now, my girlfriend far prefers to go out with her friends on Friday nights, as she has done for the past six weeks, with the exeption of last week, when I insisted that we spend the night together, which consisted of a video, two bottles of wine and her falling asleep on the sofa, oh yeah, and no sex, no affection, and barely any physical contact whasoever. It's not that I mind her going out with her friends, I don't, there would certainly be a row if she ever told me that I couldn't go out with mine. I just feel as though there's nothing there anymore, that, to coin a phrase, I'm 'flogging a dead horse'.
My girlfriend is currently studying in college and I am currently unemployed and going through the police force recruitment process (Apptitude tests, medical tests, fitness tests, interviews and yet more interviews) following my degree at Liverpool University. I can appreciate how the combined stress of study and raising a child can make her feel tired and washed out, but I travelled 70 miles to Liverpool and back every day for three years, leaving at 7.30am and not getting back until gone 7.00pm without feeling that tired. She has a ten minute bus ride to college and is home by 4.00pm, at the latest. Also she doesn't seem to feel tired when she's going out with her friends on Friday night. As for any other information I can give you, we have been together for about a year and a half, we live seperately (she has an apartment in Llandudno in North Wales and I live in the nearby village of Deganwy), we have been engaged for about a year and, as I've said, untill recently we have been very happy. I hope you can help me, I'm at my wits-end.
RomanceClass.com Advice
Well, there seem to be several things going on here.
First the sex. Sorry to say, most relationships go that way :) Most relationships are very sex-filled in the beginning because you're both 'new' and 'exciting'. But after a few months to a few years, things calm down. You've been there, done that. Many married couples have sex once every few weeks to once a month. It's not that they don't like sex. But they have had sex so many times that it's sort of 'with them constantly' and just cuddling or holding is just as good. And sure they have sex too, but it's not urgent. It's like say chocolate. If you've never had chocolate before and then find some, you might gorge on it. But if you had a pound of chocolate 3 times a day for a year straight, you might start to lessen your consumption of it.
So anyway, that's fine. But it does sound in general like you are drifting apart. I am in general a HUGE fan of people having friends separate from partners and having fun with them, and having 'their own life'. It's very healthy. But it's supposed to stay in balance with the partner connection. The friends shouldn't overrun the partner, just as the partner shouldn't overrun the friends. If she always makes time for friends, and never makes time for you, her priorities aren't on your relationship. Relationships don't just 'happen' - they take constant, steady effort. Otherwise they drift apart.
It sounds like you aren't talking much, if all this is going on and you haven't really found out why. Relationships are all about communication, so it's time to start. Arrange to have a dinner at her house (so she feels 'safe') the next Friday that you can. Have a good filling meal of her favorite foods so she's comfortable and relaxed. Then sit down and talk openly and honestly - NOT accusing. Say you love her. That you want her to be happy, and that you want your relationship to be full of love and happiness. And that you sense that she's not fully happy with things right now. Ask her why that is, and how you can help. Then listen. Don't interrupt, don't say "but". Just say "OK, I hear you" and really try to hear her.
If she evades, remind her that for this to work, you both have to trust each other and be fully open. Otherwise, how can you deal with anything when you're married? Hopefully you can get to the root of what is bothering her, and find a solution you can both work on together. The *together* part is the key, because it means you both jointly believe in the relationship working and are willing to put in the time and energy to make it work.
Good luck!

Caldo de siete mares at Las Brisas de Acapulco (3137 Mission St., between Capp St. and Precita Ave.). I walk by Las Brisas every day but it wasn't until I had a searood craving that I decided to stop by. I didn't have just any craving, I wanted the food featured on their sign outside.
When I sat down I knew I was getting the caldo de siete mares, which roughly translates to soup of the seven seas. It was so flavorful and warm, the fish and the lobster in there were so soft and rich. It hit the spot! And the serving was so big that I had leftovers to enjoy at home – it was the meal that kept on giving. The service was great, it took a little longer than expected but, it was so good that the wait time didn't matter. And the chips are also very good. I will be going back when I start craving seafood soup again — it was just like the soup my mom used to make me as a kid. – Alicia Avila
Kung Pao Pastrami at Mission Chinese Food. Warning: this dish will make you cry. If you're up for a fiery hot meal, grab a big glass of water and a box of tissues and dig in. It's so good, you'll have a hard time stopping. – Hélène Goupil TO READ MORE CLICK HERE

I keep reminiscing,-
I keep wondering,-
What I should do,-
Who I would be,-
If I told the truth for
Someone other than me.
Following my own footsteps,
Bringing my past forward;
Guess I'm just another crazy
Trying to play normal.
I'm just another attraction
Escaped from the tent,
Everyone believes,
With malicious intent.
I just want to go home,
That's it, no more,
Just leave me alone.
Can't take it anymore.
Fear has condemned me,
My soul is old,
The sandbags grow.
Fear has condemned me,
What do I have to do?
Where is the fountain of youth?
Fear has condemned me,
Has it you?

There isn't really a huge story to talk about so I am going to pick up on a few things that have been flowing through the papers and blogs and see if any of it is interesting. With that being said, lets get after it.
First lets start off with the Olympics, and it looks as if Martin Brodeur will be replaced by Roberto Luongo. Not really surprised there. Marty played a terrible game against the Americans and his puck handling was a big reason why. Should it be Luongo in this spot or should MAF get a shot> DK, who is at the Olympics, makes a case for our Penguins net keeper. I can see how MAF would have a strong case for getting in the lineup but I think Luongo is the best bet for team Canada. He already has a SO and you need to have some consistency back there.
The US is still leading the medal count before today even started, so far they have a few more medals than the Germans so far. The US also is tied for the lead on gold medals with seven.
Baseball America came out with their top-100 prospects today. Two Pirates made the list in Pedro Alverez (8th) and Tony Sanchez (79th).
Another prospect list was out there from Project Prospect as they ranked their top 100 today. Four different Pirates made that list headlined by Alverez at 12th.
Buccos Prospect Jose Tabata is really to be in the big leagues and really worked hard on a lot of his game, especially his learning the English language, to put himself in this position. If you have followed my Pirates talk on this blog you know how I feel about Tabata. I am really high on this kid and feel like he can make a huge difference on this team. Jose has matured and it looks as if he is going to be in a Pirate uniform at the midpoint on the season and I can't wait to watch him play next to Cutch. If he pans out this lineup could be real fun to watch.
Winter Classic at PNC Park? Eh, I say no. Not because I don't want it to be in Pittsburgh, it is just I don't think PNC Park is a great place to have it. I am not a huge fan of having baseball venues for hockey games, too many bad seats, I feel that Heinz Field would be a nice play to have it, and it seats about 20,000+ more people. As the boys over at The Pensblog have said before the Penguins have been in this game before and we need to see some other teams in this. I agree 100%, although Pens/Caps would be sweet.
The Steelers are going to have to make a decision about Big Snack (Casey Hampton for those of you who have been sleeping under a rock for the last 8 years) by Thursday. You ask me I bet he is tagged and they try to work out a contract during that time. Snack has said he doesn't want to be tagged, and I understand why, but he really doesn't have much choice. If he gets tagged and doesn't play in 2010-11 and then there is a lockout in the next year he will be out football for two years and at his age that would doom him. He'll get tagged and the Steelers will probably work out a deal for him.
These links have nothing to do with sports but I think they are cool. NASA is doing a buncha stuff and talking about how cold it is and how much snow we are getting. They also have a nice video of the global warming stuff and what is going on with that. Defiantly really cool.
That is all. Be well people

As Edmonton proceeds with the massive project to replace the aging Walterdale Bridge, other regions have figured out how to replace a bridge in just one weekend.
CBC's Tim Adams spoke with Frank Vanderlann, a highway design manager in Ontario, who has worked on several projects using a switching method: the new bridge is built elsewhere, transported in and swapped with the old bridge in hours. He says it saves not only time, but money.
However, City of Edmonton bridge engineer Shiraz Kanji says that type of operation is not the option when it comes to Walterdale Bridge.
You can listen to Tim's full interview with Vanderlann and Kanji below.
Then, check out this video, which shows the process in action in Utah.

As many of you know, right before the election I made a $50 bet with Hank Campbell that Nate Silver would get at least 48 out of 50 states correct for the 2008 presidential election. I also got one of Hank's readers to sign on to the same bet. Additionally, a few readers and Twitter followers got in on the wager; they were bullish on Romney's prospects, and I was not (more honestly, I was moderately sure they were self-delusional, and willing to take their money to make them more cautious about their self-delusional biases in the future). But there's a major precondition that needs to be stated here: I hedged.
Last February a friend told me he was 100% confident that Barack Hussein Obama would be reelected. This prompted me to ask for favorable terms on a bet. The logic was simple, if he was 100% confident, then it shouldn't be a major issue for him, because he was collecting anyhow. As it happens he gave me 5 to 1 odds, so that I would collect $5 for every $1 he might collect. I told him beforehand that I actually thought that Obama had a 60-70% chance of winning, so I went into the wager assuming I'd be out a modest amount of money. But that was no concern. My goal was now to convince those who were irrationally supportive of Romney to take the other side of the bet. For whatever reason people have an inordinate bias toward their hoped-for-candidate in terms of who they think will win, as opposed to who they wish to win. The future ought gets confused with the future is.* I got people to take the other side, which means that I was going to make money no matter who won.
At this point one might wonder about my comment that I suspected that those who were bullish on Romney were delusional. It's rather strong, and my reasoning is actually rather strange. Overall I accepted the polling averages. A few years back I was an economic determinist in election outcomes, but Nate Silver had convinced me that the sample size was too small to get a good sense of the real proportion of variation being predicted here. In short, the economy matters, but I stepped back from the supposition that it was determinative (as it happens, purely economic models that were excellent at predicting past elections face-planted this time). So that's why I relied on the polls. Though I leaned on Nate Silver, I didn't think he was particularly oracular, and I'd say that I'm mildly skeptical of the excessive faith some put in his particular person. When I put a link up to Colby Cosh's mild take-down of Silvermania I received a few moderately belligerent comments. This despite the fact that I was willing to put money on Silver's prediction.

A fire at a seafront hotel saw traffic chaos in Eastbourne this evening (Thursday February 27).
Crews from Eastbourne, Hailsham and Pevensey were called to the Glastonbury Hotel after a blaze broke out on the third floor and in the roof. The blaze was reported shortly after 5.15pm and firefighters were still at the scene an hour later.
Crowds looked on as a firefighter surveyed the top of the building in an aerial platform ladder.
One man told the Herald he had called 999, adding, "I saw smoke coming from the building and the fire crews went inside to make sure no-one was in there.
"The hotel is shut at the moment anyway."
Police were on the seafront to divert traffic.

The prescription for decreasing radicalization is economic prosperity. It's not the whole solution to the problem, but chaotic situations in society benefit the have nots. However, if you give the have nots properity, the idea of creating chaotic situations is harmful to their own intersts.
If I was a poor Muslim teenager with very few job prospects, I would be ripe target for radicalization because I want to change society. If I was a Muslim teenager with a future in Univeristy or my own small business, I wouldn't want to cause any calamities which would prevent me from achieving my goals.

Well look at the link it says it all. The blame is everyone else but the individual. So I'm pissed because schools don't value my faith and culture.

If it is State funded, what role other than providing funding would the State play?

London School of Islamics is an educational Trust. Its aim is to make
British public, institutions and media aware of the needs and demands of the
Muslim community in the field of education and possible solutions.
The demand for state funded Muslim schools is in accordance with the law of
the land.
I do not blame the parents, Imams and Masajid for the plight of the Muslim
youths. All Muslim youths suffer from identity crises because they find
themselves cut off from their cultural roots, literature and poetry. All of
them lack self-confidence and self-esteem. British education has made them
st**id. They have become economic slaves of the British society. They do not
know where they belong. They are unable to enjoy the beauty of their
literature and poetry. A man is a product of his culture, language and
faith. They go hand in hand.
The solution of all the problems is state funded Muslim schools with
bilingual Muslim teachers as role models right from nursery classes. The
Charter of Islam teaches true tolerance and equality and indeed is more
acceptable to all people of the world than the United Nation Human Rights
Charter. Islam does not just mean a beard, a cap and a bunch of
self-interpreted fatwas.
Accoding to a research by Goldsmiths, university of London, bilingual
learning can provide substantial benefits for second and third generation
children whose families speak a language other than English. Even when
children have grown up in the UK with English as their stronger
language,using both languages aids cognitive development and strengthens
their identity as learners. It is crucial that schools support c hildren's
mother tongue through bilingual learning activities connected with the
mainstream curriculum. Now Primary National Strategy recognises the value of
bilingualism and promotes early language learning. Policy makers need to
encourage good practice in schools, otherwise, the potential benefits of
bilingual leaning will be lost to future generations.
The research also discovered that many second and third generation children
are in danger of losing these skills if they do not have opportunities to
develop their mother tongue through academic work at school. Bilingual
children who learn in their family's language as well as English do better
at school. It is very important that parents continue to talk to their
children in their first language.
It is absurd to say that Muslim schools threaten the social cohesion of the
nation. Diversity is a blessing and we should feel proud of diversity. The
real threat to social cohesiondoes nt come from Muslim parents but from
government that seeks to force these parents to conform with the state's
ideas about how and what their children should be taught. There is no
evidence that Muslim schools are undermining social cohesion.

Given that the government is paying the bill seems realistic they would have ideas about how and what students are taught.

Prophet Muhammad did not have a problem with nonmuslim teachers teaching muslim students. So why do we?
I remember reading in Islamiyat back in middle school, that after a war, the 'ransom/bail' of the non-muslim POWs was to teach 10 muslim children . . .after which they would be released.
The teacher should be the one most qualified, and knowledgable . . . if it is a Muslim, subhanallah . . . if its not . . .then a non-muslim is the better option. As long as you are not teaching religion.

"The right to education in one's own comfort zone is a fundamental and inalienable human right that should be available to all people irrespective of their ethnicity or religious background. Schools do not belong to state, they belong to parents."
Wrong, it is a state school and the state has a say in what the students learn based off the requirements the states set. If you are wanting a Muslim teacher teaching Islamic teachings then maybe you should send your child to a private school. As long as everyone's tax money is going to that public school then religion should have nothing to say about it. That is what the private schools are meant for.
Would you have a problem with your tax dollars going to a catholic school that its teachings are based off what the parents want taught if they are the majority in the school? What if the majority of parents want the teachings to reflect that Islam teaches evil? True or not it is the same thing you are asking for. How about the athiest? Should they get their own school that is paid by your tax dollars?

This costume history information consists of Pages
81-91 of the chapter on late 13th century and early 14th century dress in the
Middle Ages era of
Edward The First 1272-1307 and taken from English Costume by Dion Clayton Calthrop.
The 36 page section consists of a text copy of the book ENGLISH
COSTUME PAINTED & DESCRIBED BY DION CLAYTON CALTHROP. Visuals,
drawings and painted fashion plates in the book have a charm of their own and are
shown amid the text. The book covers both male and female dress history of
over 700 years spanning the era 1066-1830.
This page is about dress in
the 35 year reign of King Edward The First 1272-1307. The images
and details are a good resource for Shakespeare's stage plays of the
Plantagenet era.
For the Introduction to this book see this
introduction written by Dion Clayton Calthrop. I have adjusted
the images so they are mostly 400 pixels high and can be used for colouring
worksheets where pupils add some costume/society facts.
My comments are in italics.
Until the performance of the Sherborne Pageant, I had never had the
opportunity of seeing a mass of people, under proper, open-air
conditions, dressed in the peasant costume of Early England.
For once traditional stage notions of costume were cast aside, and an
attempt was made, which was perfectly successful, to dress people in the
colours of their time.
The mass of simple colours - bright reds, blues, and greens - was a perfect
expression of the date, giving, as nothing else could give, an
appearance of an illuminated book come to life.
One might imagine that such a primary-coloured crowd would have appeared
un-English, and too Oriental or Italian; but with the background of
trees and stone walls, the English summer sky distressed with clouds,
the moving cloud shadows and the velvet grass, these fierce hard colours
looked distinctly English, undoubtedly of their date, and gave the
spirit of the ages, from a clothes point of view, as no other colours
could have done. In doing this they attested to the historical truth of
the play.
It seemed natural to see an English crowd one blazing jewel-work of
colour, and, by the excellent taste and knowledge of the designer, the
jewel-like hardness of colour was consistently kept.
It was interesting to see the difference made to this crowd by the
advent of a number of monks in uniform black or brown, and to see the
setting in which these jewel-like peasants shone - the play of brilliant
hues amid the more sombre browns and blacks, the shifting of the blues
and reds, the strong notes of emerald green - all, like the symmetrical
accidents of the kaleidoscope, settling into their places in perfect
The entire scene bore the impress of the spirit of historical
truth, and it is by such pageants that we can imagine coloured pictures
of an England of the past.
Again, we could observe the effect of the light-reflecting armour, cold,
shimmering steel, coming in a play of colour against the background of
peasants, and thereby one could note the exact appearance of an ordinary
English day of such a date as this of which I now write, the end of the
thirteenth century.
The mournful procession bearing the body of Queen Eleanor of Castille,
resting at Waltham, would show a picture in the same colours as the
early part of the Sherborne Pageant.
Colour in England changed very little from the Conquest to the end of
the reign of Edward I.; the predominant steel and leather, the gay,
simple colours of the crowds, the groups of one colour, as of monks and
men-at-arms, gave an effect of constantly changing but ever uniform
colours and designs of colour, exactly, as I said before, like the
shifting patterns of the kaleidoscope.
It was not until the reign of
Edward II, that the effect of colour
changed and became pied, and later, with the advent of stamped velvets,
heavily designed brocades, and the shining of satins, we get that
general effect best recalled to us by memories of Italian pictures; we
get, as it were, a varnish of golden-brown over the crude beauties of
the earlier times.
It is intensely important to a knowledge of costume to remember the
larger changes in the aspect of crowds from the colour point of view. A
knowledge of history - by which I do not mean a parrot-like acquirement of
dates and Acts of Parliament, but an insight into history as a living
thing - is largely transmitted to us by pictures; and, as pictures
practically begin for us with the Tudors, we must judge of coloured
England from illuminated books. In these you will go from white, green,
red, and purple, to such colours as I have just described: more vivid
blues, reds, and greens, varied with brown, black, and the colour of
steel, into the chequered pages of pied people and striped dresses, into
rich-coloured people, people in black; and as you close the book and
arrive at the wall-picture, back to the rich-coloured people again.
The men of this time, it must be remembered, were more adapted to the
arts of war than to those of peace; and the knight who was up
betimes and into his armour, and to bed early, was not a man of so much
leisure that he could stroll about in gay clothes of an inconvenient
make. His principal care was to relieve himself of his steel burden and
get into a loose gown, belted at the waist, over which, if the weather
was inclement, he would wear a loose coat. This coat was made with a
hood attached to it, very loose and easy about the neck and very wide
about the body; its length was a matter of choice, but it was usual to
wear it not much below the knees. The sleeves were also wide and long,
having at a convenient place a hole cut, through which the arms
could be placed.
The men wore their hair long and brushed out about the ears - long, that
is, to the nape of the neck. They also were most commonly bearded, with
or without a moustache.
Upon their heads they wore soft, small hats, with a slight projection at
the top, the brim of the hat turned up, and scooped away in front.
Fillets of metal were worn about the hair with some gold-work upon them
to represent flowers; or they wore, now and again, real chaplets of
There was an increase of heraldic ornament in this age, and the surcoats
were often covered with a large device.
These surcoats, as in the previous reign, were split from shoulder to
bottom hem, or were sewn up below the waist; for these, thin silk, thick
silk (called samite), and sendal, or thick stuff, was used, as also for
the gowns.
The shoes were peaked, and had long toes, but nothing extravagant, and
they were laced on the outside of the foot. The boots came in a peak up
to the knee.
The peasant was still very Norman in appearance, hooded, cloaked,
with ill-fitting tights and clumsy shoes; his dress was often of bright
colours on festivals, as was the gown and head-handkerchief of his wife.
Thus you see that, for ordinary purposes, a man dressed in some gown
which was long, loose, and comfortable, the sleeves of it generally
tight for freedom, so that they did not hang about his arm, and his
shoes, hat, cloak, everything, was as soft and free as he could get
The woman also followed in the lines of comfort: her under-gown was full
and slack at the waist, the sleeves were tight, and were made to
unbutton from wrist to elbow; they stopped short at the wrist with a
Her upper gown had short, wide sleeves, was fastened at the back, and
was cut but roughly to the figure. The train of this gown was very long.
They sought for comfort in every particular but one: for though I think
the gorget very becoming, I think that it must have been most
distressing to wear. This gorget was a piece of white linen wrapped
about the throat, and pinned into its place; the ends were brought
up to meet a wad of hair over the ears and there fastened, in this way
half framing the face.
The hair was parted in the middle, and rolled over pads by the ears,
so as to make a cushion on which to pin the gorget. This was the general
Now, the earlier form of head-dress gave rise to another fashion. The
band which had been tied round the head to keep the wimple in place was
enlarged and stiffened with more material, and so became a round linen
cap, wider at the top than at the bottom. Sometimes this cap was
hollow-crowned, so that it was possible to bring the wimple under the
chin, fasten it into place with the cap, and allow it to fall over the
top of the cap in folds; sometimes the cap was solidly crowned, and was
pleated; sometimes the cap met the gorget, and no hair showed between
Below Right - The sleeves of the man's overcoat through which he has thrust his arms
are complete sleeves, and could be worn in the ordinary manner but that
they are too long to be convenient; hence the opening.
What we know as 'the true lovers' knot' was sometimes used as an
ornament sewn on to dresses or gowns.
You may know the effigy of Queen Eleanor in Westminster Abbey, and if
you do, you will see an example of the very plainest dress of the time.
She has a shaped mantle over her shoulders, which she is holding
together by a strap; the long mantle or robe is over a plain,
loosely-pleated gown, which fits only at the shoulders; her hair is
unbound, and she wears a trefoil crown upon her head.
The changes in England can best be seen by such monuments as Edward
caused to be erected in memory of his beloved wife. The arts of peace
were indeed magnificent, and though the knight was the man of war, he
knew how to choose his servant in the great arts.
Picture such a man as Alexander de Abyngdon, 'le Imaginator,' who with
William de Ireland carved the statues of the Queen for five marks
each - such a man, with his gown hitched up into his belt, his hood back
on his shoulders, watching his statue put into place on the cross at
Charing. He is standing by Roger de Crundale, the architect of that
cross, and he is directing the workmen who are fixing the statue.... A
little apart you may picture Master William Tousell, goldsmith, of
London, a very important person, who is making a metal statue of the
Queen and one of her father-in-law,
Henry III, for Westminster Abbey.
At the back men and women in hoods and wimples, in short tunics and
loose gowns. A very brightly-coloured picture, though the dyes of the
dresses be faded by rain and sun - they are the finer colours for that:
Master Tousell, no doubt, in a short tunic for riding, with his loose
coat on him, the heavy hood back, a little cap on his head; the workmen
with their tunics off, a twist of coloured stuff about their waists,
their heads bare.
It is a beautiful love-story this, of fierce Edward, the terror of
Scotland, for Eleanor, whom he 'cherished tenderly,' and 'whom dead we
do not cease to love.'
The same man, who could love so tenderly and well, who found a
fantastic order of chivalry in the Round Table of Kenilworth, could
there swear on the body of a swan the death of Comyn, Regent of
Scotland, and could place the Countess of Buchan, who set the crown upon
the head of Bruce, in a cage outside one of the towers of Berwick.
Despite the plain cut of the garments of this time, and the absence of
superficial trimmings, it must have been a fine sight to witness one
hundred lords and ladies, all clothed in silk, seated about the Round
Table of Kenilworth.

It seems fairly clear that the first "notice" refers to the documents on the W3C site. It is understandable that W3C would not authorize changes to the documents posted on its site, since this would lead to confusion about the official standard. The second "notice" refers to the "software and documentation." This is a software implemenation of the W3C standard and the documentation to use the implementation. This does authorize modification, but only on the conditions stated. By the way, there is a technical difference between a "notice" and a "license." A "notice" is merely notice to the user that a claim of copyright exists. Under the Berne Convention, no "notice" is required to secure copyright protection, although one is often used in some circles. Under the recent WIPO Copyright Treaty, a "notice" now becomes "rights management information" whose unauthorized removal is actionable in itself. A "license" is a contractual commitment, enforced by contract law in addition to enforcement allowed under copyright law. The W3C "Notice and License" appears to be both a notice and a license.

Topher was funny, cute and just so heartbreakingly sincere about his job and his feelings. He was also as annoying as hell sometimes, but that could have been the editing.
I'm a girly girl and even *I* don't explore my feelings as often as Topher seems to. I don't cry as much as he did either.
I bet he's an awesome waiter - but it's the wrong profession for him, he seems to take everything so personally and create some huge drama out of it. It's a job, honey. If you don't like it, leave (which you did). No need to be all verklempt about it, just go and move on. I doubt he had any trouble finding a job where he didn't have to carry tissues all the time.

Hahaha, yah thats too bad he didn't get a Vespa. I loved Topher from the begging. He made me feel so welcome and happy. He had great energy! It was too bad that he left although, i didn't like the way he left. I wish he would have spoken up, and said these are the things that are making me unhappy, and i have clearly pointed them out before but nothing was done about it, and i am leaving. He gave no warning, and didn't tell Rocco (on the show) that he was leaving. Ah-well what is done is done and we have to make the best of the situation. Topher rocks! Good-Luck!~

I don't own a bread machine, but my parents do. It's been languishing in their garage for years, a relic of the care-free, bread-filled days before the low-carb craze. Remember when bread machines were popular? When the convenience of popping in some ingredients and pushing a button to yield fresh bread sounded like the best thing ever?
Nowadays, most of us are over all that Atkins nonsense, and I daresay it's time for bread machines to make a comeback. Chances are you or a close relative have one hiding somewhere in storage — time to drag it out and make some bread!
I've been using my parents' machine solely for the "dough" setting — in 90 minutes, it creates a lovely, perfectly kneaded and risen batch of dough, ready to mold into a loaf, rolls, pizza, or whatever else I fancy. You can, of course, do the kneading and rising without a bread machine if you're so inclined. Many recipes call for a stand mixer instead. Or, if you're in need of some stress relief, knead the heck out of that dough by hand and see if you don't feel better. Here's a recipe using a stand mixer, and here's one that requires kneading by hand.
And finally, here's my bread machine-to-oven version. I used half whole wheat flour, and half all-purpose flour — any more whole wheat and the texture of the bread is seriously compromised. I've had lots of success using 100% whole wheat pastry flour in pastries, quick-breads, pancakes, and waffles, but yeast breads are more finicky. If anyone has a great recipe for a yeasted, 100% whole grain bread, let me know!
This brioche recipe makes eight killer hamburger buns — rich and eggy, they complement a lean burger or veggie patty especially nicely. Alternately, you can bake the dough as a single loaf, or divide it into sixteen pieces for dinner rolls or slider buns. Or, if you're feeling really fancy, make brioche à tête in traditional fluted baking molds.
Whole Wheat Brioche Buns
makes 8 buns or 16 mini-buns or dinner rolls
3 large eggs
1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter
1/3 C. 1% milk
3 Tbsp. water
1 1/2 Tbsp. honey
3/4 tsp. salt
1 1/2 C. whole wheat pastry flour
1 1/2 C. all-purpose flour
1 envelope active dry yeast
for egg wash:
1 large egg
1 Tbsp. water
1. Place all ingredients in bread maker. Set on "dough" cycle.
2. When bread maker is finished with your dough, turn it out onto a floured board and divide into 8 equal pieces. Shape them into buns and place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover with a towel and let rise until doubled in size.
3. Preheat oven to 400F. In a small bowl, whisk the egg and water together to make an egg wash. Brush the buns with a light coating of egg wash, then bake them for 15 minutes, or until golden brown.

Tom Copley, who sits in the London Assembly and describes himself as a "republican" on his Twitter feed, complained that "too much valuable Parliamentary time" had been taken up to "congratulate two very wealthy aristocrats for procreating".
David Cameron, the Prime Minister, Ed Miliband, the Labour leader, and other senior politicians took part in a 20 minute House of Commons debate in tribute to Prince George last month.
Last week Mr Cameron and Mr Miliband also paid a brief tribute in the Commons to the Prince on the day of his Christening.
But, under a headline of "Spare us the sycophancy", Mr Copley wrote on his internet blog: "Every so often we are subjected to the stomach-churning spectacle of Members of Parliament queuing up to offer tribute to the royal family upon some particular event or occasion.
"Only recently they devoted valuable Parliamentary time to debating a motion congratulating the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge upon the birth of Prince George.
"Amidst the crises of the civil war in Syria, the ever growing cost of living and Britain's economic woes they managed to find an hour or so to congratulate two very wealthy aristocrats for procreating. Politics is the language of priorities, after all."
Bob Neill MP, a former minister and a vice-chairman of the Conservative Party, said Mr Copley's views were out of touch with the public. He said: "This kind of dour killjoy attitude shows why republicanism has never caught on in the UK."

Please join the RPLTS Interest Group for the following two presentations:
Spandex Positions - Librarian Flexibility in Technical Services
Jane Skoric, Cataloging and Metadata Librarian, Santa Clara University
How do we manage expanding positions? What to do when our roles are ambiguous? This presentation will give a realistic overview (with an optimistic spin) of one professional librarian's experiences in the technical services department of a mid-size academic library.
Two years ago I was hired into a "newly redefined position" as Cataloging and Metadata Librarian. The position I replaced was the Head of Technical Services. During the interview, a librarian stated, "But we need someone to manage the electronic resources. Who is going to do that work?" Thus, although the position announcement did not address several of the immediate needs of the technical services department, I chose to do so. My primary duties became the direct supervision of 6 support staff and the management of e-resources. Many other changes, including to whom I report, and other colleagues' evolving roles have occurred in the past two years. As 21st century libraries evolve, how and by whom will the roles of professional librarians in technical services be defined?
Emerging Leadership roles for Technical Services Librarians and Training for professional and non-professional staff
Stephanie P. Hess, Electronic Resources Librarian, Binghamton University
Leadership roles in Technical Services are shifting as the potential of digital collections continues to open new career paths for Technical Services staff. Employment opportunities for metadata/ cataloging librarians, digitization experts, and electronic resources librarians now require skill sets that are prompting many of us to become project managers and/ or administrators of electronic resource management systems and next Gen catalogs. These emerging technologies entail extensive re-vamping of workflows and the introduction of more egalitarian training techniques that will reach library staff at all levels. This presentation will cover the nuances of leadership and include tips on "leading from where you are" as well as offer ideas regarding how to approach staff training and re-deploy existing staff when implementing new workflows within an evolving cross-departmental setting.

3D Printer - Verify Accuracy of Printer
Ever wondered how accurate your 3D Printer will create your model?
I wanted to cap the ends of an open tube in my bathroom, so i took the chance to find out!
Printer Model: Buccaneer by Pirate3D
Material: PLA
CAD Software: Solidworks
Also on instructables: http://www.instructables.com/id/3D-Printer-Verifying-Accuracy-of-Print/
...Read more!...
3D Printing - experiment with angled structures
Using the Buccaneer Pirate3D printer and printing at 340 microns on masking tape, it was found that print quality is of acceptable condition until 35 degrees. At 25 degrees, each new layer of PLA is laid too far out into empty air, resulting in a drooping effect.
...Read more!...
3D Printing - shelf extension
Existing setup is first modelled in Solidworks and the necessary parts for the extension are then added on by creating the additional 3D models. In this way, everything is easily visualized and created to scale, no need to keep checking up on the measurements. The size of the two support pieces are bigger than the area of the print bed, therefore it is broken down and printed in two parts, to be joined by super glue. See the video for the entire process of creation, from 3D modelling to printing.

3D Printing - PLA Sticking Issues Resolved! (Buccaneer Pirate 3D)
I have finally received my Buccaneer Pirate 3D printer and just started playing around with it. Got off a shaky start of broken filaments and poor adhesion of the layers, but all is resolved through the easy to understand re-calibration instructions and various youtube videos from the homepage.
One other problem remains though, and that is the difficulty of removing the final product from the print bed! Sounds like a good problem to have as it usually means the model came out well, but after a few times of brute-force prying the printed model and scraping the remaining debris off the sticky print bed, it is soon apparent that this is not the way to go for long as the adhesive print bed is taking too much damage.
Surfed around the net a bit, realised that for PLA filaments, two cheap solutions exists, and this instructable is to share with you the stuffs i learnt and discovered along the way and also the experience of using the two methods:
1) Using glue stick
2) Using blue painter's tape

Modified Mint Box Torch
Take out parts of a faulty torch light and give it a second life in a mint box!
Recovered a torch with leaking batteries. Metal contacts of torch is badly rusted and the battery holder is slightly corroded. Too lazy to clean away interior of torch body too.
Get an empty mint box and get to work. Most mint boxes are made of soft and thin metal, so no drilling is needed. Just get a nail and punch a hole. To enlarge the hole (for the switch), simple use a nose plier and bore through it.
Wiring is extremely simple. From positive of battery (9v to fit nicely into my chosen box) to one connection of switch, then from the other connection of switch to the LEDs and lastly back to the negative end of the battery! Only trick here is to figure out how to connect to the PCB of the LEDs. This you will have to do some exploring on your own. TIP>> use aligator clips hooked up to a battery and start poking away at the PCB until you the light!

DIY Cactus Display Tank!
Subject: DIY Cactus Display Tank
1)Fish Tank Stand
2)2X 36W PL lights + eBallast
3)6X clear acrylic sheets(2mm thick, 18X12 inch)
4)8X L-brackets
5)large shiny sheet metal
6)4X hinges
The fish tank stand is laid on its side instead of upright. Reason being the supporting area is more and to reduce the height of the display so that it is only at slightly higher than waist level. I covered up the sides of the stand with black plastic cardboard, with the front two panels hinged to act as a cupboard.
The acrylic sheets are held together by the L-brackets with hotglue. A better method would be to drill holes and use transparent acrylic bolts, but it is too troublesome and costly for me =P.
The lighting fixtures are actually old aquarium light housings, but with the common 15W flourescent tube is switched out. I used a 36w daylight PL tube for each of the lights, arranged transverly across the top of the tank as shown. I find that this arrangment lights up a bigger area, and no additional supporting is needed to fix as compared to placing the lights along the length of the display tank. PL lights require specific ballast to light up, so make sure the correct type is bought and wired up correctly!
***TIP: Use vinegar and newspaper to wipe the acrylic sheets without leaving trail of stains!

A fake news website that started as a joke, is now catching some serious heat.
Whoopi Goldberg recently called out Clearwater native James McDaniel, 28, for writing a fake news article about her.
This article, which says Goldberg called out a Navy Seal Widow for trying to get attention never happened but it was shared thousands of times and people seemed to believe it. \
"People who understood my intentions received it well but there are a lot of people who didn't understand my intentions," says McDaniel.
Those intentions were to prove that people are very gullible and will believe anything.
"If the only thing you watched is what Whoopi said on the view then it's easy to have a negative opinion on it," says McDaniel.
McDaniel created the fake news website in February called The Underground Report.
The motto is "Real news you won't get from the mainstream media."
"What was more surprising is how widely shared the stories were," says McDaniel.
The stories are as outrageous as you can think
One article titled "Bombshell: WikiLeaks leaks 'lost' Clinton email" was liked more than 27 thousand times with more than 15 thousand shares.
"When you write about the former president running a pedophile ring out of the White House, you would think someone would have noticed it," says McDaniel.
They didn't. In fact, it was read close to 50 thousand times. More than 19 thousand people liked it,
McDaniel says he won't take the site down because of legal threats. He also says people enjoy reading the comments.
Facebook now has warning systems that alert you about stories that have been disputed.
Meaning, someone has proven its fake news.
Snopes or the Associated Press have seen the story and checked it's false.
Here's what it looks like:
This warning shows you that the article was disputed by two websites. However, you can still share the article if you want.

Acanthosis Nigricans refers to a condition which occurs with the skin in the body folds and creases turning thick, blackish and velvety. The condition mostly occurs in the armpits, groin and neck but sometimes it may affect the lips and palms. It can also occur in the soles of the feet.
Acanthosis Nigricans naturally raises concern for the look of the skin, though there are some steps for lightening the area of the skin affected by this condition.
Acanthosis Nigricans can be identified from the change in the look of the skin. The skin changes occur gradually for several months or even years. In rare cases the condition causes itchy feeling on the affected area of the skin.
What causes Acanthosis Nigricans?
Acanthosis Nigricans may occur with the rise in the level of insulin either because of type 2 diabetes or excessive body weight. The additional level of insulin may activate the skin cells resulting in the change of its condition and appearance.
Acanthosis Nigricans is also considered to be hereditary. This means that a person with family history of Acanthosis Nigricans can also suffer this condition at some point of his or her life.
Acanthosis Nigricans may also occur due to human growth hormone and other medications like oral pills for contraception. If niacin is taken in large doses it can trigger Acanthosis Nigricans.
Tumors and endocrinal defects may also be associated with Acanthosis Nigricans. In rare cases it is liked with some types of cancer.
Although exact treatment for Acanthosis Nigricans is not available, yet the treatment of diabetes, obesity and other underlying conditions may help restore the original skin color to some extent.
However, if you have gained so much of weight you must lose the extra pound so as to reduce the symptom of Acanthosis Nigricans. Sometimes change in diet proves to be beneficial.
In case you are worried about the look of your skin you must see a doctor or skin specialist who can prescribe a cream or lotion containing tretinoin or other modified vitamin A products for lightening the affected portion of your skin.
Your doctor may also prescribe isotretinoin or other oral medications besides recommending fish oil supplements. The skin thickness can also be reduced with the help of dermabrasion or laser therapy.

ANCHORAGE (AP) -- John Katz, director of the governor's Washington office, remains on the job, despite his announcement in November that he would retire once Gov. Frank Murkowski took office.
''The governor asked me to change my plan, and he didn't put any time limit on it, and neither did I,'' Katz said. ''I'm of the old school. The governor asked, and within parameters, I'm programmed to say aye, aye sir.''
Now it is unclear when he is retiring, if ever.
Katz, a political appointee, is now working for his sixth Alaska governor. They have looked to him to analyze and advise on dozens of Alaska issues in Congress and the federal agencies.
''I think the governor is quite pleased that he's willing to extend his career,'' said Murkowski's spokesman, John Manly.
Katz said it's a comfortable transition for him. He's known Murkowski for 30 years and his chief of staff, Jim Clark, for even longer. The two played football for Johns Hopkins University.

A Lawrence man charged with killing a Kansas University student in a hit-and-run wreck earlier this year made a brief first appearance Monday in Douglas County District Court.
Joshua I. Walton, 24, stood before Judge Pro Tem Peggy Kittel long enough for her to assign his case to another judge and to schedule his next court date. Walton will appear Jan. 9 before Judge Robert Fairchild to set a date for a preliminary hearing.
Walton is charged with involuntary manslaughter while driving under the influence and with leaving the scene of the accident. Prosecutors allege he struck and killed KU student Ryan Matthew Kanost, 22, shortly after 1 a.m. Sept. 23 as Kanost tried to walk across Kentucky Street at 13th Street.
"Joshua and his family extend their deepest sympathy to the young man's family," Walton's attorney, Thomas J. Bath Jr. of Overland Park, said after the hearing.
Bath said that Walton has fully cooperated with police since he turned himself hours after the wreck for questioning. He was released at the time, then booked into jail Dec. 4 after prosecutors filed charges against him.
He remains free on $25,000 bond.
Bath said he picked up police reports on the case Monday.

5bat! Review: Aftermath by Ann Aguirre
The Sirantha Jax series feels like it's changed so much from those first, frenetic, action-packed books, but I know that's not wholly accurate . Jax's world is as messy and political and fraught with peril as ever, but my relationship with the characters has deepened to the point where they are almost all I see anymore. Though not in an urban fantasy setting, fans will find the species and technologies in this world are written as accessibly as any magic, and the romance and action portrayed definitely fit the kick-butt heroine bill. AFTERMATH, more than any other book in the series, has the flavors of an epistolary novel. Not in the sense that current events are shown only through letters, but the characters that I've grown to love so much pour their hearts out to each other through the emptiness of space in letters and stories and memories.
