UET teacher reply sought on plagiarism
Lahore, April 09: Justice Asad Munir of the Lahore High Court on Friday sought reply from Dr
Munir Ayaz, chairman of the Electrical Engineering Department, the
University of Engineering and Technology (UET), Lahore on a writ
petition challenging his appointment on plagiarism charges.
Muhammad Imran Chohan, an advocate, contended that Dr Naeem was accused
of plagiarism and the matter was referred to the higher Education
Commission (HEC).
He said that the university syndicate
committee was holding inquiry into the charges against Dr Naeem but the
vice-chancellor of the varsity had given him a favor and got his name
approved as chairman of the electrical department from the syndicate
meeting. He said the appointment was illegal as his name was not
included in the list of candidates in the beginning; it was included in
the list later on.
The counsel alleged that the syndicate
meeting was not informed that the HEC had blacklisted Dr Naeem until
final report from the inquiry report. He said the HEC had also
restrained Dr Naeem from taking any financial benefit from the
university until final decision, but even he was enjoying the
chairmanship benefits.

Notices on plea for free education
Lahore: The Lahore High Court on Friday issued notices to the federal and Punjab
governments on a petition for the court s direction for the governments
to strictly act under constitutional articles 9, 25-A and 37 to ensure
provision of free compulsory education to everyone from five to 16 years
of age.
The petition was filed by Barrister Haris for the
enforcement of fundamental right to education enshrined through the
articles in the newly introduced 18th Amendment.
The petitioner
submitted that both the federal and provincial governments were
overlooking their constitutional obligations by not imparting compulsory
education to the citizens of the said age group, notwithstanding the
fact the right to education was fundamental.
The petitioner said
that less than two percent of the national budget was spent on education
and no heed was paid to introduce a uniform education system in the
country to enforce and implement the constitution requirement of
ensuring equality of opportunity to everyone. He said for private
education separate standards had been laid down that run counter to the
constitutional requirement.
He contended that any further
ignorance towards the value of education was open to cause serious
situation in the country in future. In terms of Article 25-A, he said
provinces had been obliged to cater to the needs of education of the
people of the said age. He prayed to the court to direct the respondents
to make arrangements to provide free compulsory education to people of
the said age group.
The court after hearing the petitioner
issued notices and sought replies from attorney general Pakistan and
chief secretary Punjab by April 29.

submitted that the business activity on The Mall had been badly affected
due to frequent protests and rallies there.
It said different
political, religious and other parties held protests daily, especially
on Friday. The association said the traffic police had to block all
adjoining roads of The Mall whenever a rally or protest was held,
hindering the public from approaching business places.
The petitioner-association prayed to the court to issue a restraining order against holding of protest and rallies on The Mall.
The court, after hearing the contention, sought replies from the Punjab government and the DCO within two weeks.
SPLA case: IO fails to turn up in court
Karachi: An investigation officer whom the Judicial Magistrate of South had ordered
to appear in the court on Friday and submit the charge sheet in the
case of protesting SPLA teachers failed to turn up in the court.
judicial magistrate, Nadeem Badr Qazi, had on Thursday rejected the
charge sheet submitted by the investigation officer, Malik Raees Ahmed,
because he had done that without the approval of the SP and other senior
police officers.
The magistrate had ordered the investigation
officer to submit the charge sheet again on Friday, but the
investigation officer did not turn up.
The magistrate took
exception to the absence of the IO and directed him to appear in the
court on April 24 along with the charge sheet and an explanation why he
did not appear in the court on the requisite date.
According to
the case, some 30 SPLA demonstrators were arrested when they were
marching towards the Sindh Chief Minister's House to stage a sit-in
there for acceptance of their demands.
Dissolution of PSF body opposed
Peshawar: The People's Students Federation (PSF) has termed the dissolution of the
Peshawar division cabinet of the organisation as illegal and threatened
to stage protest demonstrations outside the President House, National
Assembly and People's Secretariat, if Organising Committee Chairman
Yaseen Khalil was not removed from his office.
Addressing a
joint news conference, former PSF general secretary for Peshawar Haji
Wali, Mian Kashif of Charsadda and Taimur Iqbal of Nowshera districts
said the workers of the organisations have already submitted their
complaints against the organising committee. They said the former
chairperson of the party, Benazir Bhutto, had cancelled the basic
membership of Yaseen Khalil for contesting election in independent
capacity. "Therefore, assigning him an important office is a violation
of the party's constitution," Haji Wali added.
The former PSF
general secretary said the party had made it clear that regular students
should be made leaders of the PSF. "However, the chairman organising
committee has made former students and people on job as office-bearers
of the federation," he added.
IBMS teachers threaten protest
Peshawar: The teachers of the Institute of Business and Management Sciences (IBMS),
Agricultural University, have threatened to stage a protest camp outside
the Peshawar Press Club from today (Saturday) against what they called
the indifference of the university administration.
The threat
was made at an emergency meeting of the teachers association held here
on Friday. The teachers said they would continue their protest camp till
the acceptance of all their demands.
The teachers are demanding
release of their four-month salaries, 50 per cent increase in salaries
and 15 per cent medical allowance in accordance with the budget
announced nine months ago. The teachers said they raised voice for their
genuine demands but the university administration resorted to
revengeful actions against them.
They said the vice-chancellor
had withheld their salaries for the last four months to force them stop
their protest. They said that by stopping their salaries, the
vice-chancellor had pushed them to starvation. But, they declared, they
would not bow before the tactics of the vice-chancellor and would
continue their protest till getting their genuine rights.
Institute of Business and Management Studies is a constituent
institution of the Agricultural University, where the students are
admitted on self-finance basis. As the institute has been earning
handsome revenue, the teachers want to make the institute an autonomous
body on the pattern of the Institute of Management Science, Hayatabad.
teachers are of the opinion that they have not only been recruited on
contractual basis, but salary raise and other perks are also not
provided to them. They asked Governor Masood Kausar to take notice of
the situation and provide them justice.
Students protest exam venue shifting
Miramshah: Students of the Government College of Commerce and Management Sciences
here Friday staged a protest against the Bannu University administration
for shifting examination hall to Bannu from Miramshah and warned that
they would not appear in the examination scheduled to commence from
April 12.
The students complained that the political
administration of North Waziristan and peace committee members had given
full security assurance to the examination staff of Bannu University
during their stay in Miramshah but even then the university management
shifted examination hall from Miramshah to Bannu.
The peace
committee and grand jirga chairman, Maulana Gul Ramazan and other
members including Hafiz Noorullah Shah, Maulvi Salim Gul and Haji Abdul
Hakim Haqqani also resented the act of the university and assured the
protesting students of their full support.
The students led by
Asif Raza, general secretary of the college union, press secretary
Hanifullah, Niamatullah, Atta Mohammad, Wahab Khan, Anwarullah Khan,
Hafizullah Khan and others said they would not appear in the
examinations commencing from April 12.
The students alleged the
registrar of the university had personal grudges with the students of
North Waziristan and was trying to create numerous problems for them.
demanded the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa governor and vice-chancellor of the
university to take note of their suffering and allow them to attend
their papers in Miramshah instead of Bannu distant. This correspondent
made several attempts to get an official version of the university
administration, but in vain. The news

The decision made, I post about it on my Facebook page, that I am thinking of selling my boy.. luckily a good friend of mine Robyn in NS contacts me right away and says she wants him! we make a deal for him to leave the very next day. I'm in complete SHOCK! I believe it is fate and tell my husband at supper that night in tears. He says I shouldn't go through with it, Kizz is too important to me. I agree, he IS too important for me to leave sitting in the pasture and do nothing with him. HE and Coby fighting is just not going to work either.
The next day, a trailer comes. He loads up great and off he goes. After a few more days of tears and pain, I decide I can not be upset over this.. It was my decision, it was best for him and it's done.
My friend keeps me well updated on how he's doing and how much she adores him.
It 's painful to see, but also great when she shares some pictures of her sitting on him!! It is bittersweet to see him learning some new things as well as heartbreaking that someone else was sitting on my horse for his first time. :(

A soft, knit rectangle. Some buttons or beads to fondle. Loose ribbons to quietly explore.
"Memory mitts" bring comfort to residents of memory care units, and those at The Parkview in Pleasanton are the focus of a project just completed by the Pleasanton Senior Center's Friday Knitters Group.
"It's a rectangle mitt you put your hand in, and there are embellishments on the inside and there are embellishments on the outside," knitter Patti Taylor explained. "So it is something tactile to enjoy, explore and touch for comfort. It's something unique they can have for their own."
Grace Gibbons saw the mitts on her daughter's Facebook page with instructions from Poole Hospital in the United Kingdom, where they call them "twiddle mitts" and explain they help dementia patients combat restlessness and agitation, keeping them calm and happy.
Gibbons brought the idea to the knitting group, which she attends regularly.
"When she shared it with us, we just ran with it," Taylor recalled.
Gibbons brought a mitt to The Parkview, which is right next door to the Senior Center, to see if there was any interest for its memory care unit. Parkview activity director Patricia Rawlings responded enthusiastically.
"I said this would be great," Rawlings recalled. "We will give them to the residents, and let them feel it. It's comforting, it's soothing."
The mitts also stimulate conversation.
"We talk about how soft it is. We talk about, did they do any knitting or crocheting when they were young," Rawlings said. "They bring back memories. It's a conversation piece."
The Friday Knitting Group got busy to create 19 of the memory mitts, one for each current resident in The Parkview memory unit. First, Gibbons brought home the big bag of leftover yarn that people donate to the knitters at the Senior Center, knowing the simple mitt pattern was a perfect use for the odd balls of wool.
"I tried to organize them so the colors would look nice, and I put them in packets and added the pattern," Gibbons said. "The members took them home and made really beautiful mitts."
The group has done other projects for good causes, including knitting bears to send overseas to orphanages with mission groups, noted facilitator Stacy Dennig.
"Throughout the year we get charity opportunities, but there is no pressure to do it," Dennig said.
Sometimes a knitter will hold a sort of class for anyone to wants to learn something new. Once they made fingerless gloves. Another time they knit little pockets for holding gift cards.
Taylor said she was pleased with the memory mitt project but not because she needed something to knit.
"I never run out of anything to knit -- period," she said. "I have grandchildren who grow, new friends, someone who's been nice that I want to give something to."
She said the group is good because members come in with new ideas, and there is always someone experienced in case anyone needs help.
"Knitting is very good as we get older because the patterns help keep the brain active, whether it is simple or detailed," Taylor added.
But the memory mitt project is something they all cherish.
"It's a lovely way to give to the community," Taylor said. "It's something unique that someone in memory care can have for their own."
Knotty Naughty Knitters
At the Pleasanton Senior Center, they are called the Friday Knitting Group. But they have another title: the Knotty Naughty Knitters. When a bunch of them went on a 10-day cruise to Alaska in 2013, each one carried a bag with her name and the label, "Knotty Naughty Knitters."
"I went with my mom and my daughter," recalled group facilitator Stacy Dennig.
Dennig started knitting in 2008 when she was on a vacation with her mother-in-law and found she "absolutely loves it." Then in 2010, her husband saw the local knitting group in the Pleasanton activity guide, so she checked it out, with her 6-month-old daughter in a carrier.
Dennig, 36, emphasizes that the group is informal, supportive and for all ages, women and men.
"We have retired teachers, grandparents," she said. "Especially in the summer, we get girls in high school."
Forty-four members receive the monthly newsletter, and about 15-20 show up each week.
Dennig knits scarves, hats, beaded cuff bracelets, dish clothes, baby hats and more. She produces so much that she sells her creations at craft fairs.
"Knitting has lots of health benefits," Dennig said. "It's relaxing, it decreases stress, it lowers blood pressure -- and it's a fun social outing. We laugh a ton."
Nancy McDaniel kicked off the group in 2008 after getting permission from the Senior Center and agreeing the door would stay open to all.
"All I remember is that I was a nervous Nellie on that first Friday. What if you throw a party and nobody comes?" McDaniel said in an email. "I am beyond proud of what the Knotty Naughty Knitters has morphed into."
When McDaniel moved out of state, Dennig began to coordinate the meetings.
"Whether you use one hook or two sticks, come and hang out with us," Dennig said.
Gatherings are from 9-11:30 a.m. each Friday morning and all are welcome. Residents pay $2 per session; non-residents, $2.50. Coffee and tea are available. For more information, email Dennig at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Lucky Clover Cake recipe
Follow directions carefully, be sure to use Crisco, and we promise you a lighter, richer, moister, more tender cake. The Crisco Quick Method cake recipe is different – that's why it's easy and sure-fire!
All measurements level. Measure into bowl:
2 cups sifted cake flour
2 cups sugar
3/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon salt
3 squares melted chocolate
1/2 cup Crisco
Mix thoroughly by hand or mixer (medium speed) for 2 minutes. Stir in:
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1-1/2 tsps baking soda
Add: 1/2 cup milk, 3 eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla
Mix thoroughly by hand or mixer (medium speed) for 2 minutes. Pour into two deep 9-inch layer pans (1 1/2″ deep) which have been rubbed with Crisco and lined with heavy waxed paper. (For smaller pans, fill half full, bake cup cakes with remaining batter.) Bake in moderate oven (350 F) for about 40 mins. Cool cake in pan on rack 15 mins before removing. Loosen edges from pan with spatula. Place rack over cake and pan, invert together. Cool and frost with fluffy icing. (Recipe below.)
(Makes two 9-inch layers)
Fluffy Icing
1-1/2 cups sugar
1/8 tsp cream of tartar
1/3 cup water
2 egg whites, unbeaten
Place all ingredients in top of double boiler. Set the top of the double boiler into the bottom which contains boiling water. Cook, beating constantly with an egg beater until the icing stands in peaks (about 7 mins). To about 1/4 of the icing, add a few drops of green coloring to tint to the desired shade, and about 2 drops of peppermint flavoring. Spread between layers. Cover top and sides of cake with white icing. Arrange green Jordan almonds in clover designs on top of cake.
It's lighter! It's richer! It's made with Crisco!
No luck needed to bake this Lucky Clover Cake! It's sure to be tall, dark and luscious this Crisco way.
For blended into every spoonful of pure, all-vegetable Crisco is a cake baking secret no other type of shortening has. And Crisco's Quick Method cake recipe (given above) is built around that secret. Result? A lighter, richer, moister, more tender cake than with any other type of shortening or ordinary recipe!
It's quick – 4 minutes' mixing! Easy! You don't cream snowy Crisco. You have only one bowl to wash. Yet you're sure of a delicious dream cake that's all your very own!
Of course, Crisco can make any cake a better cake. But for sure success use Crisco and a Quick Method Crisco recipe. Once you take those velvety layers out of your oven, you'll see why more women bake with Crisco than any other brand of shortening!

From Pine To Plastic
HTBS's Tim Koch writes from London,
In the 2013 University Boat Race, Oxford rowed in a German 'Empacher' while Cambridge used a Canadian 'Hudson'. 'Hear The Boat Sing' has previously noted that once the boats for the 'Battle of the Blues' were not only made in Britain, they were produced from wood just a few feet from the Boat Race course. However, one hour before the start of the 159th Oxford - Cambridge clash, there was a race from Hammersmith to Putney ('The Watermen's Challenge') which involved traditional British made craft. It included replicas of the two boats used in the first Oxford - Cambridge race in 1829.
The 'Oxbridge Cutters' (as the pair are known) were commissioned by The Boat Race Company Ltd to celebrate the 150th Boat Race in 2004. Like the original boats, the design was strongly influenced by Cornish Pilot Gigs, though the Oxbridge boats are made of pine, not elm, and are eight-oared, not six. Originally the replicas were painted in the original colours, green for Oxford and pink for Cambridge. Today, they have been repainted in the accepted dark blue and light blue. Last February they were given on long term loan to the charity, London Youth Rowing. It is good to know that the cutters will now be in regular use and will help to bring young people into the sport of rowing – truly 'living history'.
P.S. The original Oxford boat of 1829 is on now on display at the River and Rowing Museum in Henley. A famous picture of this boat and its 1929 successor is here.

The event Tim refers too was in fact the Oxbridge Watermen's Challenge run by the Thames Traditional Rowing Assoc. (www.traditionalrowing.com). For the past five years the Watermen's cutters from the City of London Livery Companies and Organisations have raced over the last 2 miles of THE Boat Race course for the Tallow Chandler's Cup (for the fastest time). After rowing down from ULBC we have mass starts of up to (as this year) seven abreast, which was a little hopeful!, from Hammersmith Bridge racing to the Boat Race finish line (about 15mins). As Tim has pointed out the Oxbridge 1829 gigs, following a long overdue refurbishment by Mark Edwards (builder of QRB 'Gloriana'), raced with crews from London Youth Rowing completeing the course in 14:09. They made a fine sight and we hope they'll return next year with youth crews.ReplyDelete
The next event the traditional oarsmen and women will be out on the Thames will be on the 21st April for the Tudor Pull. The Royal Watermen will row the Queen's Row Barge 'Gloriana' from Hampton Court Palace to HM Tower of London - their marathon on the day of the London Marathon. More details from the TTRA Face Book page.
Look out for all these lovely old and replica boats as they are still very much part of the River Thames as you saw lst year...there by lies another tale or two!!Replies
Great information, Malcolm ~ many thanks.Delete

Hi Goran.ReplyDelete
I'm very happy to provide more information about what we are doing on the Thames. Is this the best way to communicate? or see the TTRA web site and I'll reply. Keep up the great work.
Hello Malcolm ~ I would happily post anything you write about these events on HTBS (and pictures, too). Send it to me at: gbuckhorn(at-sign)gmail.comReplyDelete


text: I hate seeing these stories. I know just how messed up the family and children laws are in this country, I've sat in a court in absolute wonderment at how old fashioned and unfair things are. But, and I don't say this 'but' lightly, I have to wonder how much the fathers 4 justice thing helps. Dressing up in a batman suit makes dads feeling that their children should spend more time with them look a bit, well, crazy. And, I can understand how the system can make you feel crazy, but it's not a brand I'd want to associate myself with. I don't have a better idea or option apart from lobbying MP's, this is what Russell Davies would call a slow project. It hurts to think that my child will possibly be a dad himself by the time there are any real changes in how families are supported through the carnage of a split or divorce.

Love at first site?
By Linda Mellor
By the end of 2014 the number of websites is expected to top a billion. Global Internet usage is continuing to grow as technology allows us to connect via our phones, tablets and laptops in almost any location. More than 71% of Britons say they are always looking at screens. The importance of a professional website has never been greater.
First impressions count as it only takes a matter of seconds for website users to make up their mind about your site and whether they should stay or go. The increased numbers of smartphone users has encouraged more immediacy and spontaneity in communication and the consumption of information. The instant someone lands on your page the visual appeal of your website needs to instantly engage users so they spend time and want to know more. Even before visitors look at your products and services they will be swayed by the look and feel of your website.
A professional looking site should have a clean design, good quality photographs, readable content and allow for easy navigation. You may have superior products and services but an initial negative impression, whether generated from a poor design or an unappealing colour scheme, can send potential customers away.
"There are a number of common mistakes people make when building a site" says Ian Paltiel, Commercial Director of Internet Creation. "To avoid the pitfalls it is important to do your homework when choosing a web designer, find out about their company history look through their portfolio and read recommendations from previous clients."
It is important to use appropriate colour schemes to promote and sell your products and services. Colours should be complimentary to the page design and be pleasing to the eye and not be overpowering. Many Countryside based sites use a lot of green, if the site designer has been somewhat heavy-handedly with green it can look intense and off putting especially for those affected by colour blindness as they will struggle to view the site. In the UK, colour blindness affects approximately 1 in 12 men and 1 in 200 women.
Ian continues: "It is very easy for the inexperienced eye or someone too close to the business to add lots of content and photographs without really considering what their customers are interested in." Photographs should showcase your business; they should be eye-catching, professionally taken and relevant. Appealing images can attract customers and make them stay.
You may think you have captured a great photograph for your website on your mobile phone camera or pocket camera but it will never replace an image taken by the trained eye of a photographer with professional camera equipment. Professional images instantly offer credibility and give potential customers confidence in your company. Employing a photographer connects you to your products and services by sending out a visual message that you care about your business and professionalism is important to you.
Stock photos may be an instant and cheap solution to your site although using them may suggest you do not care enough about your customers. Impersonal to your business and generic, stock photographs are available to everyone. If you use stock images consider the possibility they may also appear on your competitors' sites.
Keeping up to date with mobile technology developments and using a responsive design are also imperative for site visitors. Responsive sites recognise which application you are using to view and resize accordingly. Ian says: "People expect to see a responsive design, so you do not have to pinch or scroll to read the content. Navigation is easier and download times are faster. Customers have high expectations; they have visited other responsive sites and expect to see it everywhere."
Ian's good advice:
Don't settle for good when it comes to your website—be great. Visible 24/7 to people all over the globe, your website is you're most powerful marketing strategy. No printed brochure or magazine advertisement reaches more potential clients or offers the flexibility to easily update content as your business grows.
Don't take shortcuts no other marketing tool offers a better opportunity to grow your business and see real results.
Creating and maintaining a great website is a huge responsibility. It must be updated often, be usable and informative, and also visually appealing, fast loading, and functional. So treat it with the due attention that it deserves.
Ask yourself:
Where does your company website stack up in the mix of bad to great business websites?
Is your company professional, knowledgeable, reliable, error-free, and better than the competition? Yes? Then make sure your website communicates this.

Tony Blair said last week that if he had to vote on entry to the euro right now he would vote no. The statement sent a chill down the spines of most europhiles. First, Blair has been reticent up until now about saying anything publicly in support of the euro and now he is openly muttering against it.
Of course, the PM would point out that he said he would not vote to join the single currency now which means his position might change this position tomorrow, next week or, as is most likely, some time next year after he hopes he wins another term in office. His statement reflects the level of politicisation of entry into the euro in this country.
Sure, the Government pays lip service to the economic tests set out by the Chancellor but those tests are vague enough that any person would be able to bend them to say we meet/do not meet the criteria at any given point in time. The important questionis, therefore, if the decisionto enter the euro is political and not economic, how isthat going to affect the pound in relation to the euro over the longer term and what will IFAs have to know to be able advise their clients on currency fluctuations?
On Tuesday, October 24, the Government announced some good news – the UK had registered a trade surplus in goods with the European Union of £39m over the past month, giving proof to euro-phobes who would have you believe that Britain does not need to be in the euro. But the surplus is a blip on the screen for the most part, as it was the first such surplus in five years.
The truth is that if you are producing goods and trading with Europe right now, your business is either suffering from reduced margins (to offset the value of sterling which hit a high of nearly 1.74 eurosto the pound in the last week) or reduced sales as a res-ult of losing business toEuropean competitors whose goods are cheaper becauseof the weaker euro.
Over the next few years, the situation will remain much as it is today. The pound will continue to be strong against the euro. There is no single cause for this but a few reasons include lack of investor confidence in the extent of reforms taking place in European labour markets.
Add to this the relative weakness (despite robust growth across the Continent this year) versus the US economy and the lingering effects of the appreciation all European currencies experienced in the run-up to the launch of the euro, creating an artificially high initial exchange rate against the dollar.
The comments of European central bankers such as Wim Duisenberg and Continental politicians (at the EU and national level) do not reinforce investor confidence and do not help. Instead, they remind investors of their traditionally meddlesome rolein the economy.
So, if the pound remains strong against the euro in the next two to three years what does that mean for British entry? The answer is that there will not be any formal accession during this period. Even if Tony Blair wins his second term in office and callsa referendum and wins (a highly unlikely eventuality, it would seem), it is unlikely that any decision will be taken to fix irrevocably the exchange rate and trade in sterl-ing for euros
Why? Because it would bepolitical suicide to join at too high an exchange rate, permanently handicapping British business. No politician would embark on such a suicidal course, not after Britain's ejection from the ERM which occurred primarily for the same reason – Britain joining at an unsustainably high rate.
However, if one extrapolates a little further and imagines a slowdown in the UK economy beyond the next two years and continued vitality in Continental economies partly as a result of the weak currency, there will likely be a slow decline in sterling versus the euro, bringing up the possibility of a sustainable entry rate.
What does that mean then overall for the value of sterling in the next decade? Well, within a decade or so, chances are we will not be using pounds and pence in Britain but euros and cents.
The next two to three years will see continued weakness in the euro against sterling. But it will likely pick up in value as investors realise it is a currency that is here to stay and as European nations continue to reform labour markets and pension systems making long-term prospects more positive.
Only when you have the combination of a weakening pound, strengthening euro and reforming Continental economies will UK accession occur. The economic tests set forth will therefore be decided by political decisions made here and in the EU.
What does this mean for IFAs? In the longer term, they are going to have to pay more attention to the political decisions of leaders in France, Germany and the other EU countries to be able to provide advice on currency fluctuations between the pound and the euro.
The tough political choices being faced on the Continent – particularly in terms of tax structures, pensions and labour market regulations – have economic consequences and these will drive Britain's entry date into the euro.
If European politicians are successful in reforming their economies, they will improve the prospects of the UK's entry into the euro-zone sooner rather than later. But if European governments choose to hold off reforms, the euro will likely remain weak and Britain will remain outside.
Seeing cents over the euro
Tony Blair said last week that if he had to vote on entry to the euro right now he would vote no. The statement sent a chill down the spines of most europhiles. First, Blair has been reticent up until now about saying anything publicly in support of the euro and now he is openly muttering against it.

New healthcare complex will be home to $187 million hospital.
Work to start on new Oman healthcare complex
MUSCAT, November 9, 2015
Work will soon start on an integrated multi-purpose healthcare complex to be developed by Al Madina Investment near Muscat, Oman.
The RO72 million ($187 million) Al Madina International Hospital is set for 2018 launch, reported the Muscat Daily.
The complex will house a 225-bed tertiary-care hospital, 120-key three-star hotel apartments, 300 residential apartments, a fitness centre and a dedicated retail space within the premises, said the report in Muscat Daily.
The Al Madina Group also plans to open a network of clinics, which will refer patients to the main health-care facility in Muscat, stated the report, citing a senior official.
"We have always been a market mover when it comes to groundbreaking and innovative investment opportunities here in Oman. Throughout our journey we have successfully launched investment opportunities in various sector such as takaful, lease finance, logistics, real estate, education, and Islamic finance," remarked Khamis Al Kiyumi, vice chairman and managing director of Al Madina Investment.
"We are proud to announce yet another new concept in Oman - Al Madina International Hospital - an integrated multi-use healthcare complex that will benefit the Oman economy immensely," he added.

Welcome to week one of our regular series Taping Tuesday. Today, our Practice Principal and Claremont Football Club Head Physiotherapist Anthony McEvoy demonstrates how to do a basic ankle tape for an inversion sprain.
Always ensure that tape is applied to clean dry skin and use fixomull to prevent irritation or on sensitive areas. If the patient wishes to have their skin shaved prior to taping it is advisable to do so at least 12 hours prior as the pores of the skin can remain open in this time, therefore increasing the risk of infection.
Having watched the video above, it is important to note the following steps to taping a basic ankle. They are:
- The Anchor - Starting at the musculotendinous junction of the calf and achilles do a circumferential tape with a slight raise across the shin.
- 3 Stirrups - These should run from medial (inside) to lateral (outside) for an inversion sprain. It is important to ensure good width at the top the the stirrups but trying to have them come under the foot with only one tape width.
- 2 Figure 6's - Our preference is to do a figure 6 tape on both sides starting at the top from the anchor and returning to your starting point.
- Heel Lock - A full heel lock should aim to cross the calcaneus at an approximately 45 degree angle. Ensure this isn't too tight by working the tape off the roll.
- Lock off - It is always important to lock off any loose edges of the tape to ensure they don't get caught on socks in the heat of battle.
Keep an eye out for more taping tips over the next few weeks and don't forget we are able to get you in and prepare you with tape on a Saturday morning or before any of your games or to teach you how to do it your favourite athlete. Give us a call on (08) 9384 3269 or book online.

Matthew 27:62-66
62 The next day, which was after the Preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered together before Pilate, 63 saying: "Sir, we have called to mind that that impostor said while yet alive, 'After three days I am to be raised up' 64 Therefore command the grave to be made secure until the third day, that his disciples may never come and steal him and say to the people, 'He was raised up from the dead!' and this last imposture will be worst than the first." 65 Pilate said to them: "You have a guard. Go make it as secure as you know how." 66 So they went and made the grave secure by sealing the stone and having the guard.

We also have a regular monthly TIN Man Row & Run which takes place on the third Saturday of the month at 7am. We start with a row and then do the parkrun.org.uk/richmond or another local parkrun. These sessions are open to members only.
Training / fitness
The club is adaptable to all levels of fitness. Some members like to row for the social aspect and being outdoors. Other members want to develop their rowing skills and performance. Through training and club sessions we ensure all needs are met.
Learn to row / Cox course
The Richmond Bridge Boat Club is affiliated with British Rowing. Learn to row, improver sessions and Cox training happen regularly at the club.
The club relies on its rowers to volunteer for Cox training. This teaches a wide range of skills including how to: navigate the tide, lead your crew and moor a boat safely. It's a great opportunity to get more involved with the club and improve your rowing.

Dissertation writing is often the most challenging part of the Ph.D. program for many reasons. Granted, it's supposed to be hard, because you are exploring new areas of research, and this is demanding on many levels.
Dissertations are often several-year projects that have no set deadlines – a reality that makes it harder to write consistently. There is typically an enormous amount of literature to review, and a then mountain of information that needs to be organized. As a graduate student you may or may not have adequate or any assistance with these aspects of the thesis. You have to do it yourself.
A graduate student is also greatly dependent on the PhD advisor, and this critical relationship can be either good or bad. When it goes off the rails,the student is vulnerable and may feel powerless and anxious. Some advisors are encouraging and know how to help students make progress and do a good job. Others are insensitive, overly critical and sometimes negligent in terms of paying attention to their students.When the advisor relationship is not working, the writing can be much harder to do, and the process can be painfully slow and drawn out.
In addition, dissertation writers are often done with classes and in the position where their work or family obligations emerge and drain time and energy from their intellectual pursuits. The dissertation becomes a lower priority, and the weeks can speed by with little or no progress. About half of all doctoral students nationally do not complete their programs. That is a shocking statistic.
Students struggling with writing blocks have trouble finding effective help. Our educational institutions need to look at this problem more directly and improve their support infrastructure so more of these talented scholars can achieve their goals. Until then, you have to figure out a way on your own. Dissertation writing support groups help, and if your advisor isn't helpful, you might have to look for other mentors.

French far-right candidate Marine Le Pen says she has called Emmanuel Macron to congratulate him on his victory and says the vote confirms her National Front party and its allies as the leader of France's opposition.
Minutes after the first results were released on Sunday, Le Pen said she would call for a new political force as legislative elections loom in June.

Le Pen received 35 per cent of the votes cast for a candidate, according to polling agency projections, compared with 65 per cent for Macron.
She hinted that her party may rename itself from the National Front, which has been dogged by allegations of racism and anti-Semitism since it was founded by her father.

has supplies for all kinds of needlework including Cross Stitch, Tapestry and Knitting as well as Finishing and they have a room for classes. I had a chance to talk with the store's proprietors Christiane and Julia whose work in all manner of needle arts, adorn the walls of the shop.
Their spring class schedule is filled up, but Christiane has my card and may need me to come back and teach tatting in the fall.
I went looking for Valdani thread and a brief search of the internet indicated that they were the closest store that carried these threads. Apparently someone else had the same idea and had come in last week and wiped out their stock. That's OK, I managed to pick up a couple of balls in colours I like, so I'll have a play with them later.
The other things I went looking for were balls of perle cotton thread for a project I have been dying to try out for a while. I want to do a petit point design in tatting and it requires specific shades of colour. I didn't find the shades I needed, so I bought the embroidery floss instead. I hope one skein of each colour is enough. I hate having to rely on stores like WalMart and Michaels because they never seem to have what I need. They carry a lot of materials for general purpose crafting, but if you need something like a specific shade of thread, you have to go to a specialty shop.
O yeah, the other balls of thread? They were just sitting there in the thread drawer next to the Valdani thread and they were just such pretty shades of DMC perle cotton size 8 in the same pink/plum colour I felt I had to bring them home and of course I needed a contrast colour, didn't I? Besides the blue went nice with the variegated Valdani. And the red? It's DMC Perle 12. I seem to use up red faster than I bring it home and I'm down to half a ball of red perle which isn't enough to make much of anything with. I mean really, how can you NOT tat red hearts when Valentine's day is fast approaching.
I don't stash thread, I use it, a lot of it. I showed DH another empty core from a ball of size 20 Royale I don't see a weight on it, but I'm guessing about 50 grams and it's 400 yards of thread. I'm blessed with a sweetheart for a husband. His only words were, where do we get more. Gotta love him.
Now that I have my thread I'd better get tatting.

Hot Pies and Grand Finals
8 comments:
I cant tell you how much I want one of those pies right now!ReplyDelete
Come on mate you are one of the best bakers I know !ReplyDelete
Hey Stephen, have you considered substituting your spoonful of vegemite in the pies for the new 'iSnack2.0'?ReplyDelete
I already know the answer!
No but I heard last night that nutmeg is a very useful additive. I imagine I could get the colour with Parisienne essence and add grated nutmeg. Will ponder it now Vegemite have lost my respect!ReplyDelete
Just discovered your site via Facebook ... outstanding :) I also love making pies and find the Tasmanian mountain pepper berries make an interesting contibution. Keep up the great work.ReplyDelete
Thanks Tony.ReplyDelete
Will give the pepper berries a try!
My partner and I lived in TAS for a little over five years during the early to mid noughties, most of it in North Hobart, and still have fond memories of weekend Aussie rules matches at the NH oval.ReplyDelete
We must have looked completely out of place - two refugees from the north island (and a non-AFL state for that matter) huddled under blankets while t-shirted demon fans, impervious to the cold, painstakingly abused the ump.
Local friends patiently explained the glory days of the local league were over and wondered why we bothered - but we were looking for a bit of ritual in a new place and the unusual atmosphere hooked us. We never tried the pies (or the after match drinks at the Waggon and Horses) but I would guess, like the ball skills, the quality had fallen away.
When we re-located to Canberra, we went to Manuka Oval for a couple of Canberra district AFL matches (coincidentally the local side Eastlake are also demons) but it wasn't the same.
PS Just realised this comment was very short on food content - will try to make amends next time.
Thanks Our ManReplyDelete
I am pleased my tale evoked memories for you.
It sure is a funny old footy ground!

Promita Chakrabartty, who is essaying the title role of Parul in Zee Bangla's upcoming fantasy drama, Saat Bhai Champa, says that she is very happy to be a part of the project as she has grown up listening to this folktale.
She said to TellyChakkar, "We all are aware of folktales because we have grown up listening to them from our mother and grandmother. I have grown up listening to the story of Saat Bhai Champa as well. These stories are loved by people of all age groups because fairyland is not our world. I had never thought that someday I will do a show based on this story. I am very excited to be a part of this TV show and I feel lucky that I got the opportunity of playing the role of Parul."
In the promo, the actress is seen in a white flowy dress.
When we asked about her costume, she quipped, "The look is very different from my previous show. When we talk about fairy tales, we imagine the characters in some particular dresses like if it is a gown, we imagine it to be a long one, especially a flowy one. That's why Parul has been given such a long dress. It's a very stylish dress. I loved it. In the promo, Parul is seen wearing a white dress but later she will be seen in a variety of colours."
For the uninitiated, in her previous show, Bodhuboron, which aired on Star Jalsha, she played the role of Kanak and her character wore sarees.
Promita signed off saying, "We shot with real animals and birds which I think is uncommon in Bengali serials. I even rode a horse which was a completely new experience for me. I really wish that audience gets transported to a fairy land during that half an hour."
Way to go, pretty girl!
Produced by Surinder Films, Saat Bhai Champa will start from 27 November airing every Monday to Sunday at 8 pm.
Horse riding for a TV show was a new experience: Promita Chakrabartty

pines Vertical Press Tooling
Compression bending is the method used on bending presses as well as on some applications of rotary benders. Work is wrapped around a bending form (punch die) by a pivoting wiper shoe (wing die) as the bending form is driven downward. All punch and wing dies are made from tool steel hardened to Rc 58/62 for long lasting durability.
Punch Die
The punch die is the primary tool around which the tube is formed to produce a specific bend radius. Generally, the tube groove is equal in depth to half of the tube diameter modified with a radial pinch to prevent wrinkling on the tube in the bend area. The die must also be capable of producing the desired bend angle plus overbend for springback compensation.
Wing Dies
Wing dies function as containment tools for the tube during the bending cycle. Throughout this cycle, the pivoting of the wing die is restrained by hydraulic pressure. This cushioning resistance confines the workpiece in the dies, thereby controlling metal flow.
Pines Engineering offers many different configurations of press tools for all different shapes: Round, 2 at a time round, washout round, square, washout square, crush, collapse and extrusions. All of which have been successfully compression bent on vertical presses.

Patients will be able to choose which GP practice to register with, regardless of whether or not it is closest to their home, under a pilot scheme.
Commuters are expected to benefit from the plan, which will enable them to choose a doctors' surgery near their workplace, regardless of practice boundaries. People in parts of London, Manchester and Nottingham will be the first to take part.
Health Secretary Andrew Lansley said: "This is just the beginning of a range of measures we hope to introduce to make the NHS truly patient focused and will allow us to better understand their needs.
"Many patients are happy with their local GP practice, but a significant minority have problems registering with a practice of their choice.
"This pilot will mean patients taking part can access the high quality care they deserve in a place and at a time that suits them.
"That's why I believe patients should have the freedom to choose a GP practice that suits their lives, and not be restricted by geographical boundaries."
The year-long pilot scheme will begin in April in Westminster, City & Hackney, Tower Hamlets, Manchester, Salford and Nottingham City primary care trusts. GP practices will join up on a voluntary basis.
The move will also allow patients to remain with an existing practice after moving house, and means parents can choose to register at a GP surgery near their children's school.
Ruth O'Hare, a GP in Westminster, said: "This initiative will mean that commuters working in the heart of London will in future have far greater flexibility around their choice of GP, enabling some to choose to see a GP closer to where they work.
"I welcome this exciting initiative, which the Department of Health is resourcing, as it offers patients greater access to NHS care at a time and place that is convenient to them."

What's Driving You Crazy - Feb. 21, 2018 |
Title (Max 100 Characters)
HENDERSON, NV - i n a previous "Driving You Crazy" story we learned that the City of Henderson says all options are on the table when it comes to untangling the traffic tie-ups on Eastern between the 215 and Horizon Ridge. And that includes the possibility of completely revamping the freeway-like crossing at St Rose Parkway.
Henderson City Engineer Tom Davy told us about the possibility of a flyover there. and that Eastern itself *could* someday become a super-arterial, similar to Desert Inn Road in Las Vegas. But Tom says they're not just looking at north-south options: "Some of the east-west corridors that the city is currently addressing is. . we are building a segment of Sunridge Heights Parkway between 7 Hills Drive and Executive Airport Drive. so that should draw some of the traffic away from the Eastern Avenue corridor out to the west.
That *is* going to happen. and it's going to be huge, but it, too, isn't happening right away. and back to St. Rose, which Davy says *isn't* controlled by the City of Henderson: "The Nevada Dept of Transportation, as well as Clark County, are currently performing other studies in that same general area, so we're going to go ahead and link the results of our studies up with theirs in order to decide how best to implement improvements."
Whatever decisions are made, the price tag alone may not be a prohibitive factor. Why? Tom Davy: "One of the benefits of the recently passed fuel revenue indexing are these types of projects where we'll be able to leverage those dollars to increase mobility for the residents of Henderson..It was the ballot initiative that was passed by the voters in November of 2016. and that is allowing a lot of these transit projects to move forward."
On that Sunridge Heights extension from 7 Hills Drive to Airport Executive Drive: That's going to take place in two phases, starting with the stretch from 7 Hills to Maryland Pkwy. The Henderson folks tell me they hope to start that construction sometime this spring, wrapping up about 6 months later

I couldn't be happier to be talking to you at this very moment. I can't wait to show you all the projects I am currently working on, but of course many will have to wait 'til after Christmas. So in the mean time I figured we could take a flash back to SPRING! Now don't get me wrong. I LOVE the winter and Christmas in particular is one of my favorite seasons, but we have so much catching up to do so bare with me. My husband and I recently bought our first home and I was able to tend my very first gardens this summer. It was a long step from the pathetic attempt at growing morning glories I made while living walking distance from the beach. Unfortunately for me, salty hurricane winds and sand for soil are not the winning combination written on the label of the Morning Glory seed pouch.
My new gardens were the inspiration for my latest painting series on flowers. I hope you enjoy them. Prints are posted for sale on Etsy.
