Besides the over-eating, the worst part of the holidays is that they eventually end. And your days of lounging and indulging will be once again replaced with commuting, emailing, and other less relaxing activities.
So we've put together a kit of seven tools that should make your transition back to the rat race ever so slightly less painful.
Peaceful Progression Wake Up Clock
Waking up is particularly hard to do if you spent the last week sleeping in. So make your transition to the waking world a little easier with Hammacher Schlemmer's Peaceful Progression Wake Up Clock.
Instead of a jarring beep or random song on the radio, it uses a combination of gradual lighting, aromatherapy, and soothing nature sounds to help get you up on the right side of the bed for a change. It won't guarantee you a great day back at work, but it's a good start. US$70
Design Go In-Car Kettle
Sometimes coffee is a better productivity tool than even a personal assistant. And with a design that's meant to be specifically used in a moving vehicle, this Car Kettle will let you down as much joe as possible before you even get to the office. Where you can then continue your caffeine binge until it's time to call it a day. US$28
AeroShot Pure Energy Cartridges
However, the problem with coffee is that it provides a caffeine boost at the cost of stained teeth and bad breath. But that's not an issue with these AeroShot cartridges. Each one provides as much caffeine as a large cup of strong coffee through an inhalable powder. 100 milligrams of caffeine with every puff to be exact.
The downside? At least with coffee you have an excuse to leave your desk every hour for a bathroom break. US$3
Yapper Zapper mobile phone Jammer
Depending on how you choose to enjoy the holidays, there's a good chance your first day back at work might still include a bit of a hangover. And while life still sorely lacks a mute button, the Yapper Zapper is the next best thing.
It discreetly hides in your pocket, and when activated will jam mobile phone signals in a 30 foot radius around you. So whether you're waiting for the bus or sitting at your desk, you can easily silence annoying mobile phone conversations without ever having to politely ask someone to hang up. US$109
USB Stress Ball
If you spent the last days of your vacation anxious over all the stuff you didn't get done before the holidays, you've probably got some stress to deal with. And your run-of-the-mill convention giveaway stress ball isn't going to cut it.
This one comes complete with a USB cable that connects to your PC. Whenever you squeeze or mangle the stress toy in any way, it causes your desktop to warp and stretch in a similar fashion. So if an email arrives that makes you particularly emotional, you can finally extract some virtual revenge on it. US$30
HoMedics Shiatsu Office Chair
Knowing there's a relaxing massage waiting for you at your desk is certainly good motivation to get to the office. Even if it's only from your office chair.
This model from HoMedics promises a true Shiatsu massage, which travels up and down your back with an optional heating element. Just look at how relaxed and comfortable that woman in the product shot is. I'm sure it's all because of the chair, and not because she's a model who got paid to just sit around for that photo shoot.
You can also choose to have the massaging mechanism focus on your entire back, or just the upper and lower sections separately. And while you do have to plug it in, a retractable cord ensures you won't be backing over the cable all day long. US$300
Yes, you read that right. That comfortable feeling of lounging around in your pajamas on Christmas day can be carried over to your cubicle with a pair of Suitjamas.
Made from a satin/silk-like material with an elastic waistband, they're designed to be worn to bed. But thanks to functional pockets and the addition of a clip-on tie, you probably won't get too many stares when worn to work.
It also has the added bonus of making falling asleep on your keyboard slightly more comfortable. And since you technically don't have to change before heading to work, it provides a few more precious moments of sleep in the morn. US$90

Hore Suspension - An Opportunity Missed
So five weeks it is and only one of those 5 impacts on Hores rugby playing in anyway. That is this weeks test against England where Hore could have been expected to either start or be on te bench if Kevin Mealamu is fit and cleared to play. The rest of the suspension covers the pre Super XV friendlies and the first two rounds of Super XV proper. Well whoop de doo - All Blacks like Hore are only just returning to training with the squads from then and probably would not expect to take the field until about rounds 4 or 5 so this is meaningless.
A pro active judiciary would perhaps have structured the penalties in one of the following ways:
1. Miss England text this week - no argument here.
2. Either i) Miss 4 rounds of Super XV rugby commencing from first week in May. This will have the effect of making Hore miss Super Rugby games at the middle/business end of Super Rugby. Tough on the Highlanders and is a penalty with impact - byes would not count as part of the suspension..
or ii) Miss 4 weeks of 2013 International season,, extending into Tri Nations (or whatever it is now called) if necessary. This may mean the end of Hore's nternational career - tough but, it was an act of thuggery.and again is a penalty with impact.
I favour ii) as it impacts more directly on Hore but it does have the effect of extending the penalt out about 9 or 10 months before being finalised.

nintagiMissing the pre-season games may not be the "Ho Hum" it would be for other teams: as the newly appointed captain, it would have probably been useful to have him on the paddock. At least it would have kept him away from next year's seal cull.
Ok sanction, IMHO.

Colin - I disagree. I don't think any established All Blacks like Hore take the field in the pre season friendlies and in fact they don't take an active role in traing before the season starts.

Actually, Jamie Joseph had made it clear to his ABs that they are required for these early games.. that was well before last week. (according to Tew tonite).
That sounds true and logical given Joseph's hard line on training this year that had Hore publicly begging for mercy coming up to the AB season.

JC - if that is correct it is interesting that Hore respnds well to Joseph but didn't when Hammet allegedly tried to bring a similar culture to the Hurricanes.

Ten juvenile delinquents on probation have found a new outlook for life after completing a volunteer program in Japan this summer, according to local media reports.
The Chinese-language United Daily News reported on Sunday that the boys had volunteered to work at an elementary school in Ichinoseki City in Iwate Prefecture, one of the regions hit hardest by the devastating earthquake and tsunami that rattled northeastern Japan on March 11 last year.
Ho Mei-hui, a volunteer at the Probation Office of the Shihlin District Court in Taipei, took the initiative of involving the young delinquents in the school's restoration program.
However, the difficulties she encountered when raising funds for the trip almost forced her to abandon the project.
At first, she received NT$80,000 (US$2,730) from Chiang Li-hsiang, a judge at Shihlin District Court's juvenile division, to help finance the project, which required at least NT$1 million to get off the ground.
Chiang told Ho that the NT$80,000 was contributed by private donors who were hopeful that the young offenders would learn from their experience as volunteers.
"However, when I checked the prices of plane tickets on the Internet, I almost decided to give up the project," Ho said.
"[However], the closing remarks of the classic movie Schindler's List inspired me to persevere," Ho said, referring to the protagonist's regret that he had not made more of an effort to rescue just one more Jew from Nazi forces during World War II.
"I did feel regret for the future and decided to do my utmost to realize the plan," Ho said. "Seeds will grow into crops after being planted and I believed the project would help them to enjoy the taste of life's possibilities."
Thanks to generous donations made by the parishioners of the Shihlin Elim Church, Ho managed to raise enough funds to finance the program within 45 days.
Led by Ho and two Elim Church volunteers, the 10 teenagers embarked on their journey to Japan on July 26.
During the 10-day trip the volunteers worked at an elementary school in a mountainous region of Ichinoseki City, where they had to wake up each day at 6am.
Their daily work included cleaning ditches, transporting materials, assembling furniture and sawing timber.
"They did all the manual jobs that Japanese youths did not want to do," Ho said.
Wearing helmets, facemasks and gloves, the Taiwanese teenagers worked tirelessly in the scorching sun. Despite getting sunstroke, being bitten by insects or getting injured while working, none of them ever complained, Ho said.
The teens ended their day's work at 5pm, but faced another challenge when they went to shower. Temperatures drop steeply at night in the region and there was no hot water. After a hard day's work, the boys could only use water melted from mountain snow to wash themselves.
One of them, identified only by his family name, Chiu (邱), said that he enjoyed breakfast time the most because that was when they could all eat together, which made him feel warm and part of a group.
Another of the volunteers said he liked working with his companions because it built a feeling of mutual trust.
A third member, identified by his family name, Yeh (葉), said he found working in such a remote place an unforgettable experience.
Yeh said that the following four words best summed up the journey: sour, sweet, bitter and spicy.

Congratulations, you have found the best in class product that is redefining RV buyer expectations.
Forest River Cherokee has been a top performer in the RV industry, becoming one of the MOST TRUSTED names in RV manufacturing.
Arctic Wolf is the next evolution in Cherokee's renowned quality and value. Arctic Wolf offers luxury amenities at an entry level price point, in addition to being designed for light duty trucks. All of this in floorplans that offer unmatched convenience and functionality.
Select filters below and then click the Filter Results button to remove non-matching Floorplans and their Specifications
GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating) – is the maximum permissible weight of the unit when fully loaded. It includes all weights, inclusive of all fluids, cargo, optional equipment and accessories. For safety and product performance do NOT exceed the GVWR.
GAWR (Gross Axle Weight Rating) – is the maximum permissible weight, including cargo, fluids, optional equipment and accessories that can be safely supported by a combination of all axles.
UVW (Unloaded Vehicle Weight)* – is the typical weight of the unit as manufactured at the factory. It includes all weight at the unit's axle(s) and tongue or pin and LP Gas. The UVW does not include cargo, fresh potable water, additional optional equipment or dealer installed accessories.
*Estimated Average based on standard build optional equipment.
CCC (Cargo Carrying Capacity) ** – is the amount of weight available for fresh potable water, cargo, additional optional equipment and accessories. CCC is equal to GVWR minus UVW. Available CCC should accommodate fresh potable water (8.3 lbs per gallon). Before filling the fresh water tank, empty the black and gray tanks to provide for more cargo capacity.
**Estimated Average based on standard build optional equipment.
Each Forest River RV is weighed at the manufacturing facility prior to shipping. A label identifying the unloaded vehicle weight of the actual unit and the cargo carrying capacity is applied to every Forest River RV prior to leaving our facilities.
The load capacity of your unit is designated by weight, not by volume, so you cannot necessarily use all available space when loading your unit.
Actual towing capacity is dependent upon your particular loading and towing circumstances, which includes the GVWR, GAWR and GCWR as well as adequate trailer brakes. Please refer to the Operator's Manual of your vehicle for further towing information.

Hi, guys.
I'm hoping you can help me. I've been a coder a long time, but I just never have done anything with events and delegates. I have a rough understanding of the concept, but am having trouble using it in my particular application, which deals with socket messaging. Could someone help me plug in what goes where, in my code below?
In my server app, which listens on a port, I have a string I need to throw back to the client using an event, but I am not sure how to do that. Here is a subset of my code:
while (true) {
bytes_received = listener.Receive (ref groupEP);
string FullMsg = Encoding.Default.GetString (bytes_received, 0, bytes_received.Length);
message = Encoding.ASCII.GetString (bytes_received, 0, bytes_received.Length);
// I want to return message back to the client program, but am not sure how.
I have my delegate and event set up at the beginning of the code like this:
public delegate void MessageReceivedHandler(string message);
public event MessageReceivedHandler MessageReceived;
So I hate to ask someone to just help me fill out this code, but I think if I could see a working example in my own code, it would make more sense to me. All the examples I find online are just too complex or specialized.
Thanks so much for any help, guys.

It's "Terrorist Week" on the National Geographic channel.
I,ve become a member of the gym at the Semiramis, one of the big hotels on the banks of the Nile. It's a fitness and sauna club patronized by Egyptian men with big bellies in addition to the hotel guests. Most of these men only go to the sauna, get massages and take naps on the beds there, all wrapped up in big hotel towels. I run there a couple of times a week on a running machine while watching television. It's "Terrorist Week" on the National Geographic channel. They show the images of the Twin Towers collapsing and blurry films of Islamic training camps. Osama bin Laden comes into view every five minutes, but besides that I also see a striking number of street scenes with ordinary Arabic-looking people in galabias, the collarless, ankle-length shirts. It's a suggestive report in which everyone who has anything to do with Islam or Arabia looks like he might be a terrorist. The man to my right places his towel on the floor. At first I think he's going to do stomach muscle exercises, but then he drops to his knees, shuts his eyes and bows towards Mecca.

West Street near the World Trade Center in lower Manhattan was shut down Wednesday because of falling ice from the rebuilt skyscraper, authorities said.
The six-lane thoroughfare was closed for about 2 miles southbound from Canal Street to the Battery Park underpass, and about a mile northbound from Battery Park to Murray Street.
The Battery Park underpass was also closed.
U.S. & World
Stories that affect your life across the U.S. and around the world.
City officials warned of major traffic delays throughout lower Manhattan.
Streets around the trade center have been closed a number of other times this winter for the same problem.
Some architects say newer, energy-efficient high-rises may actually be contributing to ice buildup.
"They keep more heat inside, which means the outside is getting colder and that allows more snow and ice to form," said engineer Roman Stangl, founder of the consulting firm Northern Microclimate in Cambridge, Ontario.
Anthony Hayes, spokesman for the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey, which owns the trade center site, said crews have been removing the accumulation of ice that formed on the 1 World Trade Center and on an external construction hoist that stretches from the ground to the 90th floor.

BW Croc, the cuddliest crocodile at Australia Zoo, loves putting a smile on the face of every child she meets! But not only does BW bring joy and laughter to the children who visit us at the Zoo, she also ventures out on day trips to the Royal Children's Hospital in Brisbane.
With her cheery sidekick in tow (Linda from our Wish Tours Coordinator), BW makes the trip from Beerwah to Brisbane every month, taking lots of cool gifts to the 'Wonder Factory' at the Royal Children's Hospital, such as rubber crocodiles and snakes, giant pencils, plush toys, stickers and badges. BW makes sure every child is able to join in on the fun, even going to the bedsides of those who are unable to leave their rooms.
Here at Australia Zoo, we see our role at the hospital as an important one that will make a positive impact on the lives of seriously ill children. We are proud to support such a worthy cause, and will continue to dedicate time to uplifting these special kids and their families.

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – Bethune-Cookman scored seven unanswered runs including the game-winner on an error in the bottom of the ninth inning to down Harvard, 8-7, at Jackie Robinson Stadium.
In the decisive ninth, a leadoff bunt single and a sacrifice bunt forced Harvard to intentionally walk a batter with one out. Anthony Stokes followed with a single to right-center and the ball was misplayed, allowing the winning run to come home.
Bethune-Cookman improves to 7-9 on the season while Harvard, playing its first game against an unranked opponent, dips to 1-7.
Harvard struck first with three runs in the top of the second inning, two of them coming on a two-out RBI single from Mike Martin. The Crimson got three more runs in the fourth but it should have been much more as the team didn't make an out at the plate. Five singles and a hit batsman were offset by three runners being thrown out on the base paths.
Trailing 7-1 in the sixth, BCU got back into the game thanks to Harvard pitching woes as three Crimson hurlers walked five batters and hit two more, with the home side scoring four runs without a hit or even putting the ball out of the infield.
A leadoff home run in the seventh got BCU within a run and another hit batsman in the eighth paved the way for a run-scoring fielder's choice in the eighth.
Harvard out-hit BCU by a count of 18-8 as every starter had at least one hit. Martin led the way with three hits while Zach Boden also had three. Steven Dill, Kyle Larrow, Carlton Bailey, Jon Smart and Nick Saathoff all had two hits.

United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples

|Subject Matter:
|Access | Compensation | Cultural Heritage | Customary Law | Economic Development | Education | Employment and Training | Future Act | Health and Community Services | Housing, Construction and Infrastructure | Implementation | Land Management | Land Planning | Land Settlement | Land Transaction | Land Use | Law - Policy and Justice | Leadership | Local Government | Management / Administration | Native Title | Native Title - Extinguishment | Recognition Agreement / Acknowledgement | Recognition of Native Title or Traditional Ownership | Recognition of Traditional Rights and Interests | Reconciliation | Self Government | Water | Youth
|Summary Information:
|On 3 April 2009 the Australian Federal Government formally announced Australia's official support for the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (the 'Declaration') (Macklin, 2009). The Declaration outlines international norms regarding the rights of Indigenous peoples, covering economic, social, cultural and self-determination rights, among others. While this is a non-binding, aspirational document, support for it suggests a commitment to uphold the rights it describes.
|Detailed Information:
The purpose of the Declaration is to outline and uphold the rights of Indigenous peoples throughout the world.
Key Objectives and Principles
The drafting of the Declaration began in 1985, when governments worked directly with Indigenous peoples to develop a significant human rights document. Many prominent Indigenous Australians played a significant role in developing the draft Declaration, including Les Malezer, Professor Mick Dodson and Tom Calma (Macklin 2009). The Declaration is a comprehensive statement addressing the rights of Indigenous people.
The Declaration was officially adopted 29 June 2006 during the inaugural session of the Human Rights Council. It was then moved before the General Assembly, where on 17 September 2007, 143 nations voted in support of the Declaration. Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the US voted against it.
On 3 April 2009, the Federal Government announced that Australia had officially given its support to the Declaration.
The Declaration is not legally binding (it is not strictly a treaty at international law) but represents international human rights norms that should be universally complied with (Malezer, 2009).
The Declaration focuses on individual and collective rights with regard to culture, identity, language, employment, health, education and a number of other issues.
It highlights the rights of Indigenous peoples to maintain their own institutions, traditions and cultures and the right to develop their economic and social needs and aspirations as a group. Discrimination against Indigenous peoples is prohibited and their full and effective participation and informed consent in all matters that concern them is promoted. The right to self-determination is also included in the Declaration.
Although giving support for a declaration at international law does not make the articles of that document legally binding and does not alter domestic law, the Declaration may nevertheless have an important political impact through its strong moral value (Davis, 2008).
Jenny Macklin has announced the Federal Government's intention to introduce legislation to lift the suspension of the Racial Discrimination Act 1975 (Macklin, 2009); an Act through which many rights of Indigenous people are protected in Australia. Further, the Declaration may be used by the Australian courts as an interpretation tool in cases of statutory ambiguity (Davis, 2008).
It may be necessary for the Federal Government to introduce legislation in order to bring Australian domestic law into line with all the articles of the Declaration.

Lynyrd Skynyrd was the definitive Southern rock band, fusing the overdriven power of blues-rock with a rebellious Southern image and a hard rock swagger. Skynyrd never relied on the jazzy improvisations of the Allman Brothers. Instead, they were a hard-living, hard-driving rock & roll band -- they may have jammed endlessly on-stage, but their music remained firmly entrenched in blues, rock, and country. For many, Lynyrd Skynyrd's redneck image tended to obscure the songwriting skills of their leader, Ronnie Van Zant. Throughout the band's early records, Van Zant demonstrated a... Read more
