Time and Place
Living room or any room. Present time
Synopsis The dear neighbour has spent all his money on a coffin. He wants to die. He thinks it proper to die now. His neighbours do not think that is right. They complain about it. The dear neighbour wants to die, to die and to die. Again and again he lies down in his coffin. Suddenly he does not want to die any more. His neighbours do not think that is right. Zioghas' text fell into my hands accidentally. Contemporary timelessness. What I believed to have found, had to do with both the variety of possible interpretations, deriving from the treatment of the characters – people moving as monumentally as puppets – as well as with the limitations of the fable in a sort of ordinariness, somewhat similar to vaudeville and circus...

And we've got a track premiere of his new tune "Flying" to prove it.
Get ready to wet your pants eski fans! Though, like every other media outlet ever, Noisey's had a sometimes strained relationship with the "elusive" Wiley, when something like a track premiere turns up in your inbox everything is magically forgiven. So, yeah, Big Dada casually dropped this exclusive off in our inbox this morning and we lost our shit:
Wiley returns to Big Dada and to grime - the genre he invented and loves above all else - with a blistering new single. If you wanted evidence that Wiley's hunger and fire are undiminished, "Flying" is it. In fact, Wiley might be the first MC whose hunger is never diminished by considerable commercial success. Raw, impassioned, effortlessly virtuosic, "Flying" is a blazing return to form. Produced by Zdot, "Flying" comes as further evidence that grime is undergoing a second golden age. A collaborative effort with Wiley's own A-List imprint, Big Dada are proud to present a street anthem for the summer.
I know right? While I've still got you lathered up and hyperventilating over Wiley, check out when he actually turned up to a shoot as part of our Noisey Meets:

It is hard to say which runway trends are taking hold ready for the Autumn/Winter collections of 2012/2013, as the range of looks is somewhat overwhelming. There is literally everything and I'm not exaggerating. Some of my favourite themes featured in this particular copy of Fashion Trend Collections are 50's prom, gothic romanticism, lace, women's tailoring, capes, fur, leather and of course, the ever present LBD, or the 'Little Black Dress'. The LBD was created by none other than Coco Chanel in the 1920's, a era where most women wanted big and heavy dresses and hats, decorated with an unreal amount of ruffles, feathers, jewels and colour. Chanel brought the colour black out of the mourning period and into everyday elegance and we have never looked back. People were initially shocked at her lack of corseting, the simply cut material and the figure hugging shape, but everyone soon followed suit, from Dior and Burberry to the likes of high street shops everywhere, the LBD is a staple in every girls wardrobe, and as Vogue stated back in 1926, 'a sort of uniform for all women with taste.'

Hate Eternal
Phoenix Amongst The Ashes
May 2011
Released: 2011, Metal Blade Rating: 5.0/5 Reviewer: Demonator Holy shit. I'd wager that to be a close approximation of the average response upon first hearing Hate Eternal's last effort, FURY & FLAMES. Inspired by the untimely passing of former member and, by all accounts, one of Erik Rutan's best friends, Jared Anderson, the record was billed as their most emotive, only in this instance that meant delivering one of the most clinical displays of no-holds barred aural thuggery to ever be captured in a recording studio. Such was the maelstrom of carnage that ensued from the disc's opening seconds that Rutan's virtuoso guitar work was virtually drowning beneath a barrage of endless blasts; quite an accomplishment in one sense, but certainly one that didn't leave room for much in the way of actual, memorable songs. Mercifully PHOENIX AMONGST THE ASHES opts for a decidedly different tact, returning to the bountiful creative plains of 2005's I, MONARCH where crafting distinct tunes seemed to be more of a priority for the band than it had been previously. Here a densely proportioned introduction stirs their fifth full length into life, but it's when "The Eternal Ruler" shreds its way through the wall of discordance that business really picks up. The sprinting pace that's become a Hate Eternal signature forms the track's backbone, but it's packaged in the sort of stellar death metal riffing that elevated albums like BLESSED ARE THE SICK to timeless classics. "Thorns of Acacia" follows suit, and what's particularly evident here is Rutan's melodic flair, which he taps into sparingly, but when he does the results are spectacular. "Haunting Unbound" is a slower, brooding effort, kicking off in the vein of Morbid Angel's "Where The Slime Live", before mutating into something altogether more sinister around it's third minute. That this record is death metal perfection really hits home amid the final salvo of "Lake Ablaze" where oscillating blast beats and mid-tempo groove show off not only drummer, Jade Simonetto's technical dexterity, but also features one of the finest guitar solos that Erik has ever laid down. And while he may have acted as a producer on their forthcoming album, it wouldn't surprise me if deep down Rutan felt as though PHOENIX AMONGST THE ASHES had to throw the gauntlet down to Morbid Angel on some level. Forty minutes later and there's little doubting that the bar has been raised - massively.

Hello there fellow vegan people!
I am a 26-year-old person from Finland. I am a Finnish sign language interpreter and now studying to become a sports instructor. I was a vegetarian for 3-4 years before becoming vegan in 2004. So next year I will be having my 10-year anniversary, yay. I have always been a person who wants to stay in control so one of the reasons why I became vegan was that I wanted to eat in a healthier way. My ways were too extreme because I have orthorexia. Now I am still controlling what I eat but I keep it truly healthy and train at the same time. And NO I am not vegan only because it is healthy, I have all the reasons in the world to be one.
Instead of wanting to be skinny and skipping meals I love to eat a lot, be healthy and not waste my time on hating my body. Two years ago I started to realize I was training too hard and I changed my goal from "being a thin person with muscles" in to "getting more mass and train wisely". I think now at this very moment I am being in my most clever state of mind. I would get crazy happy if I had new friends this way because there aren't too many vegan bodybuilders in Finland. Please let me know if you want to get touch with me.
And oh, if you are a competing bodybuilder / fitness-athlete send me a message! I am working on my final school project named "Vegan bodybuilding and fitness-athletics".
With all my heart, Esme
this is my blog if anyone's interested. It is in Finnish but at least it has pictures!

Paramander (3.5e Prestige Class)
From D&D Wiki
Paramanders do not exist. No one has ever met one, and any reports of their activities have been pure speculation. Were they to exist as a secret society, their purpose would be to preserve the balance and defend the natural order, playing off good vs. evil, law vs. chaos, so that none ever becomes too powerful.
In nature, the strong feed off the weak, but never take more than they need. In so doing, they cull the flock, allowing the strong to survive.
Nature always rights itself. Any imbalance is swiftly countered, and harmony restored.
Not so with so-called intelligent species. They cut down whole forests, leaving nothing behind but barren wasteland. They hunt animals for sport, killing more than they need to eat, even driving them to extinction. Their incessant wars with one another devastate everyone and everything in their path.
The paramanders would have been sent to right the imbalance created by the intelligent species. They would mostly observe, keeping tabs on the ebb and flow of kingdoms and empires. They would act subtly to preserve the balance in small ways, protecting forests or animals from unnatural threats. When any empire grew too strong, they would act decisively to sabotage it, restoring balance with its neighbors.
All along, no one would know of their existence.
No one would ever ask to become a paramander. The paramanders would identify a likely candidate, follow him around for some time to be certain, and then make the approach. Recruits would come from all moderate classes, especially rangers and druids.
In many campaign settings, the paramanders could be an elite arm of the church of Silvanus (or a similar true neutral nature deity), their existence known to only a few of his highest priests.
Within the paramanders might be some who believe that the only way the balance can be restored is to wipe the intelligent species from the face of the earth. Called paremandyr by their brethren, they would continually strive to identify the most powerful non-neutral intelligent force around, and eliminate it.
A paremandyr would share all prerequisites and class features in common with paramanders. He might be recruited directly by another paremandyr, or recruited by the paramanders and then subverted.
The names paramander and paremandyr, as well as the concept of true neutral paladin-like operatives, came from a Dragon magazine article, A Plethora of Paladins. However, the 3.5 edition game mechanics are original.
- Alignment: True neutral.
- Base Attack Bonus: +5.
- Feats: Alertness, Improved Initiative, Track.
- Skills: Bluff 5 ranks, Hide 8 ranks, Knowledge (nature) 5 ranks, Move Silently 8 ranks.
- Special: Must be approached by a current paramander and offered membership. Only one chance would ever be given.

Class Features[edit]
All of the following would be class features of the paramander:
Weapon and Armor Proficiency: A paramander would not gain any proficiency with weapons or armor.
Nondisclosure (Sp): To become a paramander, a character would have to submit voluntarily to a geas constraining him never to reveal the existence of the organization, either directly or indirectly, or any secrets learned from them. The caster level of the geas would be the paramander's character level plus 6, and would continue to rise as he gained levels.
Nondetection (Su): A paramander would gain nondetection as a supernatural ability. The caster level would be the paramander's character level plus 6, and would continue to rise as he gained levels. The effect would be continuous, and could not be suppressed by the paramander.
Sneak Attack: At 2nd level, a paramander would gain the ability to do sneak attack damage as a rogue, dealing 1d6 extra damage. This amount would go up an additional +1d6 at each additional even level. This damage would stack with sneak attack bonuses from other classes.
Detect Aura (Sp): Starting at 3rd level, a paramander could detect aura at will as a spell-like ability. This would have the effect of simultaneously casting detect evil, detect good, detect chaos, and detect law, remaining in effect as long as he maintained concentration.
Align Weapon (Sp): Starting at 5th level, a paramander could use align weapon as a spell-like ability up to 3 times per day.
Woodland Stride (Ex): Starting at 7th level, a paramander could move through any sort of undergrowth (such as natural thorns, briars, overgrown areas, and similar terrain) at his normal speed and without taking damage or suffering any other impairment.
However, thorns, briars, and overgrown areas that were enchanted or magically manipulated to impede motion would still affect him.
Swift Tracker (Ex): Starting at 7th level, a paramander could move at his normal speed while following tracks without taking the normal –5 penalty. He would take only a –10 penalty (instead of the normal –20) when moving at up to twice normal speed while tracking.
Hide in Plain Sight (Su): Starting at 9th level, a paramander could use the Hide skill even while being observed, as long as he is within 10 feet of some sort of shadow (other than his own).
Code of Conduct: A paramander would have considerable freedom to act as he saw fit in the performance of his duties, even committing deeds of unmitigated good, evil, law, or chaos. However, should he continue in a pattern favoring one alignment over another, without a clearly understood overall purpose in preserving the balance, then he would lose all spell-like and supernatural class abilities until such a time as he atoned for his errors in judgment. A paramander who involuntarily broke his oath of nondisclosure (e.g. through a compulsion spell) would be subject to the same consequences.
Ex-Paramanders: A paramander who ceased being true neutral, who voluntarily broke his oath of nondisclosure, or who voluntarily left the paramanders for any reason, would immediately and irrevocably lose all spell-like and supernatural class abilities. He would furthermore be under a death sentence, for the paramanders could not risk letting him expose their secrets.

Tokyo-based psych rock band Yura Yura Teikoku opened for Yo La Tengo Tuesday night (09/15/09) at Higher Ground in Burlington, one of a few shows they played on YLT's tour. You can catch their next show at the MHW with Jessica 6 tomorrow. (And YLT tomorrow in DC with Endless Boogie.) Signed with Mesh-Key, Yura Yura Teikoku's music is loud, beautiful, and fun. Some of it is downright haunting, some of it makes you want to catch some tasty tubes, and all of it makes you feel like you could be in a scene from that Sofia Coppola movie with Scarlett Johansson.
Oh, and Yo La Tengo's new stuff is just the best.

Requests for Proposals
Requests for Proposals (RFP) are used for most large purchases (typically over $25,000) when price will not be the determining factor in the selection of a contractor. The RFP will provide background on the County's need and describe in general terms the work that needs to be performed. Proposals from interested providers must describe how the provider would go about fulfilling the need, and at what cost. Proposals are evaluated and a contract is negotiated with the provider whose proposal most closely meets the County's needs.Requests for Qualifications
Requests for Qualifications (RFQ) are issued when the County seeks to retain professional services from architects, engineers, construction project managers, and related professionals. The RFQ process is similar to the RFP process, except the provider does not include a cost proposal. The most qualified provider is selected for negotiation of a contract. If the County cannot come to agreement on contract terms and price, then negotiations are undertaken with the next most qualified provider. Invitations to Bid
Invitations to Bids (ITB) are used when the County has a well-defined set of specifications and is prepared to award the contract to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. To be considered responsive, a bidder must follow all directions as specified in the ITB. To be considered responsible, the bidder must have the capability in all respects to perform fully the contract requirements.
Public Works Projects
Contracts for the construction, improvement and repair of public buildings are awarded through a competitive bidding process. Informal bidding procedures are typically used for public works projects costing between $6,500 and $10,000. Informal bid announcements are sent by e-mail to contractors known by the County to be skilled in the trade(s) required. Informal bids are generally advertised once in The Union newspaper and have a short turnaround time for receipt of bids.Formal sealed bids are solicited when the cost of work on a public building exceeds $10,000, and when work on public roads exceeds $25,000. Bidders are advised to read the bid documents carefully and to follow all instructions and provide all information requested. Public works contracts are subject to the prevailing wage requirements of the California Labor Code. See www.dir.ca.gov/dlsr Certain federally funded projects are subject to Davis Bacon wage laws.

Advertisement Apa is a relative newcomer to the acting game—aside from a recurring role on the New Zealand soap opera Shortland Street, his first major film credit (an adaptation of the W. Bruce Cameron novel A Dog's Purpose) is due for release next year. If you've not been following along with the excellent comics reboot of Archie, which has re-imagined Andrews and his pals as hip young teens of the modern era, the CW's description of Archie might confuse you a little bit.According to Deadline, Apa's Archie will be "an intense, conflicted teen," who's gotten pumped over the summer working on his father's construction lot and is thus the object of attraction for several of his female friends at Riverdale High. I mean, it is the CW after all. Were you expecting them not to cast someone exceedingly attractive for this? There will be at least one scene in this show's pilot where Archie is topless, and the camera will linger on his torso. It's basically guaranteed. Advertisement But Aja isn't the only new casting revealed for Riverdale. Ashleigh Murray has been cast as Josie, lead singer of Archie comics classic Josie and the Pussycats and one of Archie's schoolmates. Madelaine Petsch has landed the role of Cheryl Blossom, another object of Archie's affections in the comics, but described in a press release for Riverdale as "a manipulative mean girl who kills with kindness."They join Cole Sprouse as Jughead Jones, Lili Reinhart as Betty Cooper, and Luke Perry as Archie's dad Fred.[Deadline] Sponsored Header Image Credit: Archie #1 cover by Fiona Staples.

Two of its partners are members of the Inner Circle of Advocates, a select legal organization limited to 100 of the nation's best plaintiff lawyers. They are also Fellows of the International Academy of Trial Lawyers as well as the American Academy of Trial Lawyers.
Power Rogers & Smith is a personal injury trial law firm devoted to representing individuals, who have sustained catastrophic injuries or killed due to the conduct of others, against insurance companies, corporations, trucking companies, manufacturers, hospitals, doctors and other wrongdoers. Since 2000, Power Rogers & Smith has obtained over four billion dollars in recoveries which is three hundred million dollars ($300,000,000) more than its closest competitors according to the Law Bulletin Publishing Co annual survey. It was again the top ranked law firm in recoveries in the 2011 annual settlement survey published in the Chicago Lawyer.
Since inception, Power Rogers & Smith has obtained jury verdicts and awards of over $4 billion dollars for its clients in major trucking, medical malpractice, defamation, aviation, product liability and work place injury cases. Among its many record awards is the highest compensatory and medical malpractice verdict of $55.4 million dollars as well as a record recovery for a case involving the wrongful death of six children in a single family of $100 million dollars in a combined trucking and product liability case. Their investigation into this highly publicized case led to over 74 criminal convictions including a former Illinois governor and retesting of over 2000 truck drivers. Other notable trucking cases include almost $40 million dollars for another family and recently $25 million dollars for another client. Power Rogers & Smith also obtained a record $7,000,000 million dollar verdict for an Illinois Supreme Court Justice in a defamation case. The firm also represented and obtained multi-million dollar verdicts on behalf of two former Chicago Bear football players who suffered permanent injuries as a result of medical malpractice and currently represents one of the nation's top NBA basketball players in a defamation action. In addition, the firm's primary focus has been representing children, fathers, mothers, men, women, widows and orphans who were victims of wrongdoing.
Firm cases have resulted in widespread societal benefits including the retesting of over 2000 truck drivers, the creation of new policies and procedures at a hospital requiring fetal monitoring of babies while high risk mothers are in labor, use of state of the art centralized testing of newborns for metabolic disorders and product recalls. In addition, in another highly publicized case, which resulted in a $9 million dollar recovery, a teenage boy was left to bleed to death outside a hospital's door. This case spurred a federal regulation requiring hospital personnel to assist people in need of care within a reasonable distance or the sight of the hospital entrance way.
Power Rogers & Smith works on a contingent fee basis. It only gets paid if you win and obtain compensation. Any fees or costs will only be charged if there is a recovery for the client.

Low-Cost Airline
AirAsia turns Singapore into a virtual hub
Despite the fact that AirAsia does not have an airline based in Singapore, the City State is turning now into one of the busiest gateways for the red-and-white, low-cost carrier. ÔÇ£Singapore['s] position has changed a lot over the last two years with authorities also realizing the benefits of a strong development for low cost airlines,ÔÇØ explained Azran Osman-Rani, CEO of AirAsia X, AirAsiaÔÇÖs long-haul subsidiary.
For years, Singapore was only served out of Bangkok by Thai AirAsia thanks to a very liberal bilateral agreement between Singapore and Thailand, which provided free capacities between both countries to any Singaporean or Thai carrier. It was then followed by a slight relaxation of rules between Indonesia and Singapore, providing the opportunity for Indonesia AirAsia to link Singapore to Pekanbaru. The big boom came, however, with the decision of Malaysia and Singapore to free capacities between both countries. AirAsia now flies eight times a day from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore, turning this route into the groups busiest international route. The AirAsia group today offers flights from Singapore to 14 destinations - 2 to Thailand, 5 to Indonesia, and 7 to Malaysia - a number to be compared with Jakarta, AirAsia's third-largest air base, with flights to 16 destinations
Newest additions to the Singapore network are Miri (Sarawak) and Tawau (Sabah), which has gained, for the first time, a non-stop international flight. In total, the AirAsia Group offers a total of over 400 weekly frequencies from Singapore, the equivalent of 13 daily returns. Last March, AirAsia Group CEO Tony Fernandes, shared its vision to offer up to 50 return frequencies a day at Changi Airport. Meanwhile, AirAsia this year expects to transport some two million passengers from and to Singapore. ÔÇ£Our current strength in Singapore relies more and more on business travelers who are switching their travel habits because of the recession. Up to 30 percent of our passengers on our global network are business travelers,ÔÇØ added Osman-Rani.
Could AirAsiaÔÇÖs next big step then be the set-up of its own subsidiary in the City State? It is still too early to speak about it. ÔÇ£But Singapore authorities are becoming more and more flexible," said Osman-Rani. Beyond Singapore, the AirAsia Group will continue to strengthen its domestic network in Indonesia and add more destinations to India and China out of Malaysia and Thailand. ÔÇ£We have [a] plan to serve at least 9 cities in India and 5 more cities in China,ÔÇØ added AirAsia X CEO. In the longer term, AirAsia X is likely to expand to the Gulf area before opening a new destination in Europe.

This is America. All of our kids are smart as a whip. So, why do Atlanta teachers and administrators even have to think about erasing wrong answers on standardized tests in order to make them look good? Aren't they good already? The history of their grades over the years would seem to prove that, after all.
Justice may have been served Wednesday when Joseph Bozicevich was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole for the September 2008 shooting deaths of Staff Sgt. Darris Dawson and Sgt. Wesley Durbin in Iraq. But even though the sentencing decision likely was what the families of the deceased had been hoping for, there clearly are no winners in this situation.
In the 18th century, Great Britain, with trade domination, was the world's powerhouse. Starting in the 19th century, the United States surpassed Great Britain as the industrial leader, and we never looked back. America was every country's desired trading partner.
In the context of a state budget, even a depressed and depleted one like Georgia's, $30-$40 million isn't really all that much. In contexts that involve real people and real money (as opposed to the Monopoly money politicians sometimes act as though they're tossing around), it's huge.
If "compromise" means an agreement that doesn't satisfy anybody, then last week's Washington budget deal should be part of the dictionary definition.
I usually try to run the big decisions by you before I take action, but I know you have been distracted over the past weeks watching our selfless public servants in Washington put our interests and those of our nation above petty, partisan political sniping in the debt ceiling debate and marveling at how our crackerjack president, Mr. Swivelhead, makes Jimmy Carter's woebegone administration look like a cross between the Garden of Eden (pre-apple tasting) and Brigadoon.
Editor's note: this op-ed column is a response to a guest editorial from the Athens Banner-Herald that ran July 30.
Severe storms, extreme heat, a crippling freeze, deadly tornadoes, terrible wildfires - Mother Nature has managed to throw almost everything in the book at us within six short months. With just half a year under our belt, the state of Georgia and metro Atlanta already have experienced their share of severe weather, and we obviously don't know what's in store for the second half of 2011.
The Georgia General Assembly will reconvene less than two weeks from now in a special session to take on the constitutionally mandated legislative task of redistricting. Like the U.S. Census, and as a result of it, this process occurs every 10 years when states redraw their congressional and legislative maps to reflect population and other demographic changes.
This column is in response to Future of Freedom Foundation senior fellow Sheldon Richman's column, "It is time to bring the troops home," which was published in July.
There are places we go where we expect to learn something. We expect to learn something when we're sitting at a desk in a classroom or in a pew at church on Sunday morning.
Editor, This is a safety warning for anyone traveling east of Interstate 95 to Sunbury.

Mabel Forrest (1872-1935), writer, was born on 6 March 1872 near Yandilla, Darling Downs, Queensland, and registered as Helena Mabel, second of three children of James Checkley Mills, station manager, and his English-born wife Margaret Nelson, née Haxell. The family lived on stations near Dalby, Stanthorpe and Goondiwindi, border towns that appeared in her fiction as 'Brolga'. Except for one year of schooling at Parramatta, New South Wales, she was taught by her mother, 'who spoke several languages fluently and had been to school in France and Germany'. Mabel's sister Ethel also became a writer, publishing stories and poems in the Sydney Bulletin.
On 5 July 1893 at Callandoon, near Goondiwindi, Mabel married with Anglican rites John Frederick Burkinshaw, a selector. A daughter was born in 1894 at Tulloona station in northern New South Wales. The marriage was unhappy. With her husband unable to support his family, Mabel contributed by taking in sewing, and began to write and publish her work. The couple separated when Burkinshaw went to Perth in 1896 to look for work. They were divorced on the grounds of his 'adultery, desertion and cruelty' in April 1902. On 22 July that year in Brisbane she married with Wesleyan forms John Forrest (d.1921), a railway surveyor. In public accounts of her life, she expunged her first marriage, but the experience informed many of her most powerful lyric poems.
She made her living as a writer—'the most industrious versifier in the Commonwealth'. Publishing in the Australasian, the Bulletin, Smith's Weekly, the Triad and the Lone Hand, she signed herself 'M. Forrest', 'Reca' or 'M. Burkinshaw'. Her stories from the Australasian were collected as The Rose of Forgiveness (1904). Her first volume of poems, Alpha Centauri, was published in 1909. She regularly won literary competitions and her works appeared in the Pall Mall Gazette and the Spectator (London), and in the United States of America.
Forrest's most successful work was The Wild Moth (London, 1924), filmed by Charles Chauvel as The Moth of Moonbi. Scenes from her novels were performed in public, and her play, The Highwayman, was staged at the Cremorne Theatre. Fidelity and betrayal in love were recurrent themes in her fiction. Her narratives of Australian bush life invited comparison with Rosa Praed, but she also documented the coming of modernity, taking up issues such as city planning, and describing the growth of suburbs (Streets and Gardens, 1922). Her characters were as likely to ride on trains and trams as on horses and in sulkies. Some poems were recited on civic occasions: 'The City Hall' was read at the building's 1930 opening in Brisbane and later etched on a commemorative marble tablet there.
A member of the Society of Authors, London, and the Fellowship of Australian Writers, Forrest was a life member of the Queensland Press Institute. Her last poem, 'Waning Moon', appeared in the Australasian on 16 March 1935. She died of pneumonia two days later in hospital at Goodna and was cremated with Presbyterian forms, survived by her daughter. A short manuscript autobiography in the John Oxley Library and the depositions from the divorce case are unreliable remnants of her life.
Contemporaries were critical of Forrest's writing, H. M. Green calling it 'over-facile', Nettie Palmer 'fluent and ornate'. Her children's verse, however, was praised as attractive and technically dextrous. She acknowledged debts to Scott, Melville, Browning, Adam Lindsay Gordon and Edith Wharton. Although Forrest's contemporaries saw her work in a tradition of colonial writing, it could also stand alongside that of Cross, Lesbia Harford, Gwen Harwood, Eleanor Dark and Dymphna Cusack, as the work of a modernist, sharing their interests in psychology and sexuality.

Essential Guide
Working in the cloud: How IT enables mobile productivity
A comprehensive collection of articles, videos and more, hand-picked by our editors
No network connection? Mobile workers can stay productive offline
Mobile workers rely on the cloud and expect ubiquitous network connectivity, but there are ways to stay productive offline when Wi-Fi isn't available.
Mobile workers are spoiled. They demand connectivity anytime and anywhere, and when there isn't free Wi-Fi available to allow them to get work done, all hell breaks loose.
Download: Is your organization's mobile data secure?
Today's IT admins face the challenging task of managing the countless amount of mobile devices that connect to enterprise networks every day. Find out how to eliminate the most common mobile data security pain points and pitfalls in this complimentary best practices guide.

Two decades ago, only an elite crowd of mobile workers were lucky enough to receive a dial-up 9.6 Kbps modem to send files or emails to their company on a luggable computer.
Today, as mobile devices transform into lighter and smaller devices, the mobile workforce expects to stay connected using Wi-Fi or cellular connections and cloud services. It's connectivity anytime, anywhere.
"The actual working environment is changing," said John Bartz, director of marketing at En Pointe Technologies, a Microsoft IT consulting organization based in Gardena, Calif. Whether at home or in the office, a worker is constantly connected to his or her device. As soon as they wake up, the mobile device turns on and they are checking their email. At the office, workers transition to another device, and when they return home, they may use another personal device and watch something from a tablet connected to the cloud, he noted.
As a result, network connectivity demand has increased significantly. A reliable network connection can even be considered a requirement for employees who work remotely.
"It's no different than someone calling that says, 'I don't have a car to come to work.'" said Raj Subramanian, chief information officer of the State of Ohio Office of Budget and Management. "For a new hire, [employers may ask], 'Do you have a reliable system and connection to [use for] work?'"
Indeed, connected notebooks and smartphones have become such a pervasive technology that connectivity is critical to a worker in and outside the office.
"On mobile [devices], you have this perception that everything you do on the device is network-dependent," said Chris Hazelton, director of mobile research at 451 Research, based in Boston. "A lot of [the] work people do on tablets is often connected. Corporate-owned tablets are often WAN-enabled."
Earlier this year, The NPD Group's Connected Intelligence research team of Port Washington, N.Y., published a report noting that cellular connections for tablets grew 48% in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the same time last year. However, cellular connectivity was only utilized in about 12% of the tablets in the U.S.
"You will find that being offline happens less and less. Even on a plane you are connected a lot of the time," said Balakrishna Narasimhan, vice president of marketing and strategy at Appirio Inc., a San Francisco-based cloud service provider. "The times when you're disconnected are fairly rare and [one] can supplement with some offline capabilities."
But when employees are disconnected, there are ways for mobile employees to work offline.
Lost connectivity vs. lost productivity
Lost connectivity can equate to lost productivity and a revenue hit, but it doesn't have to.
Luminex Corp. deploys Apple Inc.'s iPads for its ServiceMax field service application and relies on Wi-Fi.
"Our concern is when we are in locations where the iPad doesn't have connectivity," said Steve Nava, director of field service for the Americas at Luminex in Austin, Texas.
There are places where connections aren't available, so they must offer other ways for service workers to continue their job offline.
"When there is no coverage, we ask that when we get back to coverage, we can sync up documents. Likewise, [workers have to] pull down any work while you're out of communication," Nava said.
To combat the broken connection, some enterprise software and application vendors provide an offline client or implement a practice to ensure mobile workers can synchronize their data frequently with the company's servers whenever they are connected to the cloud.
For example, desktop virtualization can help enterprises keep mobile workers connected if they use a disconnected virtual desktop infrastructure. This approach enables remote employees to continue working even if they are not connected to a network. Companies such as Moka5, VMware Inc., Citrix and others, support personalized virtual machines that deliver desktops remotely, but store files and user preferences locally for offline use.
Mobile workers with little or no Wi-Fi connection can also rely on third-party software that enables them to use their smartphone as a broadband modem or Wi-Fi hotspot to gain connectivity.
One can also deploy a USB broadband modem on a notebook and tether it to a smartphone, buy a USB broadband modem and associated carrier plan, or purchase a broadband wireless hotspot and carrier service plan so up to four or five devices can share a connection.
However, if cell coverage is spotty at best, an offline technology may be the best option.

Kraigg Brathwaite (92) and Kirk Edwards' (91) second wicket stand of 172 threatened to bully India A into submission before the hosts pulled things back with four wickets in the last session as both teams shared the honours after a grueling day of cricket. The tourists, having been asked to bat, finished the first day of the first unofficial Test on 264/5 after Parvez Rasool dented their lower order with 2/60 from 27 overs.
Earlier, opting to field, India A skipper Cheteshwar Pujara was immediately rewarded when Mohammed Shami, bowling a probing line, snared Powell, trapping him lbw. The southpaw was clearly disappointed as he started a slow walk back to the pavilion but that was what the near capacity crowd at the Gangotri Glades Cricket Ground needed to be chirpy all day.
However, Braithwaite and Edwards, unfazed by the early loss and some good movement under overcast conditions, stonewalled the initial three-man pace attack comprising of Shami, Ishwar Pandey and Ashok Dinda. The two West Indians, who had played their last Tests back in the summer of 2012, were determined to dig in deep and minimise every risky shot. Edwards, an otherwise attacking stroke maker and Braithwaite, waded through the morning session, as the tourists took lunch at 58/1 off 27 overs.
After some consolidation in the first session, Edwards came out all guns blazing after lunch and signaled his intentions when he launched off-spinner Pervez Rasool for a straight six, as the ball came crashing down on the makeshift media center close to the sight screen. Edwards was also severe on Dinda, who struggled to find the right length and pitched up too often. Edwards was happy to rock back to the short ones on a pitch that had little bounce as the day wore on but his footwork against the spinners was a work of art and should please the West Indian selectors who have sidelined him since 2011 from the ODI side after an appearance against India.
If Edwards decided to up the ante midway into the innings, 20-year-old Brathwaite was a study in composure and correct technique. The opening batsman who was also axed around the same time that his batting partner today, started by grinding the Indian attack before dropping anchor and letting Edwards run away with the scoring rate. The understanding between the two was perfect and the running exemplary as the Indian fielders began to drop their shoulders, making errors they should not have at this level.
The second session between lunch and tea was easily the most productive of the day for the West Indians, with the settled pair adding 116 in 30 overs but the rub of the green went India's way soon after when Pandey removed Edwards for 91 off 162 balls, an innings that he had studded with 11 fours and a huge six. Like his partner, Braithwaite was also unlucky to miss out on a well-deserved hundred and fell to Rasool, edging one to wicketkeeper Rohit Motwani.
Rasool was in business again when four overs later, he took a sharp return catch, diving to his left to see off Narsingh Deonarine, who was threatening to push the scoring rate towards the end of the day. India A got another shot in the arm 14 runs later when Rajat Paliwal accounted for Leon Johnson as West Indies A slipped to 237/5.
Assad Fudadin (4 not out)and Chadwick Walton (26 not out) ensured there were no more damages as the sixth wicket pair steered the Caribbean boys through to end of the day. The first hour of the second morning would be crucial for both teams - while India A would want to make further inroads, the West Indians would like to survive the first hour and get to an imposing score.

The Horse Forum
- Horse Tack and Equipment
- - New saddle needs special pad
New saddle needs special pad My horse Auda is half Belgian half QH so she has a really wide back. I've tried a couple different wide and extra wide saddles, English and Western, but they were all too small. Yesterday, I got her a western draft saddle which is a really close fit but is just a little too big. I'm thinking I need to get her a build-up pad or and under pad or something to fill that extra space. I have no idea where to look, though, or even what they're really called or what to look for in a good one. I was thinking something like this: http://www.thinlineinc.com/store/car...ct_detail&p=30 except I don't have $153 to spend and I don't use sheepskin or other animal products. |
I honestly think you should get a properly fitting saddle that doesn't need a thick pad or lifter but I understand money so heres my idea. http://www.horsetackreview.com/review-display/1304.html Look into that bad, since you don't use animal products, the leather wears aren't even leather! Its pricey but it seems worth it, especially since its custom fitted. |
Wintec saddles can fit most horses, but you may need to pay about 400 dollars, but it may be worth it. Not sure. :? |
I don't think I'm gonna find a saddle that fits her better than this one. It's only a little off. But yeah, if I had the money I'd get her a custom made fitted one. As long as this saddle isn't make her sore and is distributing the weight properly it'll work. Looking at the saddle again, I think the pad in the link that I put up would've been too much padding. horseylover, I tried a Wintec Wide on her before, and it was too small. The thing about Wintecs and their easy change gullet system is changing the gullet really isn't changing the size of the saddle, it's just changing the gullet which doesn't guarantee a fit because you can't change the back. Thanks for the link, but I think I found a pad that should work for her. heh, I've been scowering the internet all day to find something. |

I don't think we had two pages of complemantary evidence from the source material to go solely based on that.
Before, the mention of the ability seemed simply unescessary, since events were going sorta like we expected they would had the ability still existed. However, dialogues on the recent chapters do give some basis for that speculation. Now, it does seem awfuly strange indeed, like you said. They are talking precisely about an ability Devil Style made neutral before, yet they are reacting as if it was always in effect. |

Neither Torai nor Tsurubami actually got to do anything and we didn't get to go to the moon. I'm pretty disappointed about that. |

"Picky Details" for the Sony DSC-W1 digital camera
(Timing, Power, and Storage Info)
Since they're rarely reported on (and even more rarely reported accurately), I measure both cycle times and shutter delay times for all cameras I test, using a test system I designed and built for the purpose. (Crystal-controlled, with a resolution of 0.001 second.) Here are the numbers I collected for the Sony DSC-W1:
(secs) |
Power On -> First shot | |
LCD turns
on and lens extends forward, then snaps the picture. Very fast. |
Shutdown | |
First time is time to retract
lens, second time is worst-case buffer-clearing time. Very fast for
shutdown, average for buffer clear. |
Play to Record, first shot | |
Time until
first shot is captured. Very fast. |
Record to play | |
First time is that required
to display a large/fine file immediately after capture, second time
is that needed to display a large/fine file that has already been processed
and stored on the memory card. Pretty fast. |
Shutter lag, full autofocus | |
First time is at full wide-angle, second is full telephoto. Both times are very fast. |
Shutter lag, prefocus | |
Time to capture, after half-pressing
shutter button. Blazingly fast! |
Cycle Time, max/min resolution | 1.24 / |
First number is for large/fine files, second number is time for "TV" mode (640x480) images. Times are averages. VERY fast, and all shots are this fast (no buffer memory). |
Cycle Time, Burst mode, max/min resolution | 0.80 / 0.71 (1.25 / 1.42 fps) |
First number is for large/fine files, second number is time for "TV" size images. Times are averages. In large/fine mode, 9 shots were captured and the buffer cleared in 8 seconds. In TV mode, over 60 shots clicked off without filling the buffer, and it cleared in 15 seconds. Pretty speedy. |
Cycle Time, Multi Burst (16) mode | 0.03 (30 fps) |
Camera captures 320 x 240pixel images, stores them in 4x4 arrays inside normal 1280 x 960 files. User can set frame rate to 7.5, 15 or 30 frames/second. Stops shooting after 16 shots, the buffer clears in 2 seconds, and it's ready for more. Very fast. |
The DSC-W1 is a surprisingly (amazingly?) fast little camera, with really excellent shutter response, shot to shot cycle times that would be the envy of most full-sized cameras, as well as very quick startup/shutdown times. Its shutter lag numbers are virtually identical to those of its slightly smaller sibling, the DSC-P100, but its cycle time performance is positively blazing. The one fly in the ointment though, is that the P100 is a camera that "penalizes" you for pressing the shutter button too quickly after a previous shot. If you mash down the shutter button immediately after capturing an image, the camera will just sit there until you let up on the shutter button and press it again. A number of cameras do this, but I consider it to be a pretty significant design flaw.
The Sony W1 uses a AA batteries for power, and comes with two NiMH
rechargeable 2100 mAh AAs and a charger. Because its external power jack is
a proprietary design though, I couldn't perform my usual exacting power measurements.
The numbers in the table below are Sony's, from the W1's manual. While I couldn't
confirm them through my own measurements, I do think they're reasonable, based
both on my own anecdotal experience with the W1 during my testing, as well as
on my experience with the P100, which seems to share much of the same electronics
with the W1.
Still-image capture mode, LCD on | 170 minutes |
Still-image capture mode, LCD off |
Playback mode |
These are excellent run times, particularly for a camera powered by two AA cells, but I still highly recommend purchasing another set or two of high-capacity NiMH batteries. See my battery shootout page for rankings of various batteries, based on actual performance measurements.
Storage Capacity
The Sony stores its photos on Memory Stick or Memory Stick Pro memory cards,
and a 32 MB card is included with the camera. (I strongly recommend buying
at least a 128 MB card, preferably a 256 MB one, to give yourself extra space
for extended outings.) The chart below shows how many images can be stored on
the included 32 MB card at each size/quality setting.
Resolution/Quality 32 MB Memory Card |
Fine | Normal | |
2,592 x 1,944 | Images (Avg size) |
Approx. Compression |
6:1 | 10:1 | |

Download Speed
The Sony connects to a host computer via a USB interface. Downloading files to a Sony desktop running Windows XP. I clocked it at 2356 KBytes/second. This is pretty fast, even for its USB v2.0 interface. (Cameras with slow USB interfaces run as low as 300 KB/s, cameras with fast v1.1 interfaces run as high as 600 KB/s. Cameras with USB v2.0 interfaces run as fast as several megabytes/second.)

With 45 million monthly unique visitors, the microblogging site Twitter has emerged as an ideal platform for broadcasting personal opinions on nearly every subject matter. The National Football League, the powerful sports league with more than $4 billion in annual television revenues alone, thinks all that frivolous tweeting could seriously damage its business.
In preparation for the upcoming season, the NFL has instituted a set of new guidelines attempting to restrict how fans can use social media applications like Facebook and Twitter to talk about professional football. Under the rules, the NFL says fans are encouraged to circulate messages about teams and players, but cannot post play-by-play accounts of actual games.
The NFL also aims to prohibit fans attending games in person from posting large quantities of videos shot from the stands onto sites capable of hosting videos, such as YouTube, Facebook or MySpace. The NFL sells exclusive rights to television networks and radio stations to broadcast the games, says NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy, and posting text or video recaps of each play could undermine the league and its broadcasting partners' efforts to make money airing the games.
If the NFL identifies fans violating the new rules, league officials say they'll contact them and tell them to stop posting text or video. If fans refuse, the league will consider filing a lawsuit, McCarthy said.
The strong-armed tactics demonstrate how worried sports leagues are about the impact of social media on their business. But they also open the NFL up to a potentially ugly legal battle if the league cracks down on fans.
The NFL "has no property right over fans' tweets," says Wendy Seltzer, a fellow at Harvard's Berkman Center for Internet and Society. Fans have the same right guaranteed by the First Amendment to publish accounts of football games, even in play-by-play form, that any news organization would, she argues.
Seltzer says the NFL could theoretically claim that fans were violating the league's trademarks by using the names of teams and players, but that wouldn't likely hold up in court.
Similar legal issues arose in the late 1990s when the National Basketball Association sued to block
Regarding video, Seltzer says that the NFL and its teams could insert a clause in the text on the back of tickets stating that fans are prohibited from using recording equipment in stadiums. Some teams already include such language.
Yet enforcing such rules would be tricky. Teams would have to physically remove fans from the stands. And if fans ignore the rules and record video, Seltzer argues that the league would have no property right over resulting footage and would have to prove to a judge that posting the video on Facebook or YouTube actually reduced the value of their TV broadcasts.
There is some historical precedent for pro sports organizations trying to block media access to game footage and information to protect important sources of revenue. Bill Wirtz, former owner of the National Hockey League's Chicago Blackhawks, famously blocked local broadcasts of games in hopes of stimulating ticket sales. After Wirtz died in 2007, the team abandoned the practice, realizing the marketing power of television to expand its fan base.
Along with installing rules to regulate fans' tweets and Facebook updates, the NFL also announced new rules for players and coaches. They can use social media applications until 90 minutes before each the start of a game and have to wait until traditional media interviews are finished before they resume posting personal messages. Of course, the league has more legal leverage to enforce rules over team members. This summer, the San Diego Chargers reportedly fined cornerback Antonio Cromartie $2,500 for using Twitter to complain about the food served at the team's training camp.
NFL spokesman McCarthy says the league has yet to identify a case of a fan attempting to post a play-by-play account on the Web but that it needed established rules in case such a situation occurs. If its threats fail to deter excessive tweeting, the NFL better come up with a strong legal and PR case before they drag one of their own fans into court.

We finally boarded our plane and lifted off safely. A few hours into the flight, we were served dinner.
We had a choice between sweet and sour fish or beef. I picked the fish and he picked the beef. Both came with some salad, a roll, and some Milano cookies.
Here's the salad. The cucumbers were actually crunchy and fresh tasting. The lettuce was expectantly lack luster along with the hard boiled egg. The worse was the mysterious fish that came along with the salad. I think it was supposed to be smoked salmon. However, it lacked any smoked flavor. It was more like dry, salty salmon. Without it, the salad would have been passable. I picked it out and ate the rest of the greens.
And here's the dinner roll with a good smearing of butter. It was soft and warm. Not too bad at all.
And the main course, the fish. The meat was dry and served with some gloppy sauce. The white rice helped disperse some of the orange gloppy sauce. However, it was a very meh meal. What did I expect though? Not much.
And here's the beef dish. Appetizing no? Actually not at all. The beef dish was completely over salted. Even the white rice and bland vegetables didn't tame it to become something edible.
After dinner, we were given a midnight snack: a burger and some ice cream. The burger seemed like the kind you could find frozen in your supermarket. It is what you expect. The ice cream was definitely the star there. Why? Because it was Haagen Daz. Milky, creamy, and delicious.
Here's a closer pic of the burger. Looks weird right? Yeah, tasted kind of weird too.
I'd like to add that throughout the entire 16 hour flight or so, we had to pay for alcoholic drinks. Yes, an international flight for that long, you still have to pay. That is all.

5 Facts About New Years
When I was younger I loved New Years. It was a reason to see my friends and stay up until 1:00AM. Now I dread New Years because it forces me to stay up until 12:01AM.
However, I do love that the New Year brings a fresh start for everyone and a chance to reflect on the past year. Here are 5 things you may or may not know about New Years.

text: #1 I am a brand new teacher with little firing experience. I took over a classroom that uses a cone 10 clay body but uses both cone 10 & cone 5 glazes on that clay body. Most of the lessons I am teaching are for functional pottery. My questions is, will the clay body be ok to use as functional pottery with only glaze firing it to cone 5? HELP!
