PCP (Personal Contract Purchase) a simple cost effective way to buy your new or nearly new
You choose the car, the deposit, how long you want the contract to run for and the mileage you intend to do. You will then receive a quote for fixed cost motoring for the length of the contract. At the end of the contract you have a choice to either buy the car outright for an agreed lump sum (the GFV or final balloon payment), or hand the vehicle back to the lender.
Hire Purchase allows you to take ownership of a car once all payments are made.
This is one of the most popular methods to buy a new vehicle. You pay an initial deposit, then pay off the balance in monthly payments over an agreed period of time, when the payments are complete the car is yours.
One of the main benefits with Hire Purchase is the ability to buy a high value vehicle on
monthly payments.
Hire Purchase allows you to tailor your finance package as deposit, length of time and monthly payments are all flexible.
Personal contract hire is very similar to normal contract hire, but is exclusively for
private individuals. This
is one of the most common form of leasing.
With a personal contract hire agreement you take control of a car for a contractual period - usually referred to as the 'lease period'. You will make fixed monthly payments for the duration of the contract - when the contract expires you will simply return the car and take out a new personal contract hire lease. PCH means you never have to worry about resale values of your car.

justice(redirected from doing justice)
Also found in: Dictionary, Thesaurus, Medical, Financial, Encyclopedia.
The proper administration of the law; the fair and equitable treatment of all individuals under the law. A title given to certain judges, such as federal and state supreme court judges.
n. 1) fairness. 2) moral rightness. 3) a scheme or system of law in which every person receives his/her/its due from the system, including all rights, both natural and legal. One problem is that attorneys, judges, and legislatures often get caught up more in procedure than in achieving justice for all. Example: the adage "justice delayed is justice denied," applies to the burdensome procedures, lack of sufficient courts, clogging the system with meritless cases, and the use of the courts to settle matters which could be resolved by negotiation. The imbalance between court privileges obtained by attorneys for the wealthy and for the person of modest means, the use of delay and "blizzards" of unnecessary paper by large law firms, and judges who fail to cut through the underbrush of procedure all erode justice. 4) an appellate judge, the Chief Justice and Associate Justices of the U. S. Supreme Court, a member of a Federal Court of Appeal, and judges of any of the various state appellate courts.

Foreign phrases: Melior est justitia vere praeveniens quam severe puniens.Truly preventive justice is better than severe punishment. Justitia non est neganda non differenda. Justice is neither to be denied nor delayed. In re propria iniquum admodum est alicui licentiam tribuere sententiae. It is unjust for anyone to assign to himself the privilege of deciding his own case. Sacramentum habet in se tres comites,-veritatem, justiiiam, et judicium; veritus habenda est in jurato; justitia et justicium in judice. An oath has in it three compooents-truth, justice, and judgment; truth in the party swearing; justice and judgment in the judge administering the oath. Justitia est constans et perpetua voluntas jus suum cuique tribuendi. Justice is the constant and perretual means to render to each one his rights. Lex dilaaiones semper exhorret. The law always abhors delays. Boni judicis est ampliare justitiam. It is the duty of a good judge to make precedents which amplify justice. Discretio est scire per legem quid sit justum. Discretion consists in knowing through the law what is just. Justitia est duplex, viz., severe puniens et vere praeveniens. Justice is double, that is to say punishing severely, and truly preventing. Nulli vendemus, nulli negabimus, aut differemus rectum vel justitian. We will sell to none, we will deny to none, we will delay to none, either equity or justice. Justitia non novit patrem nec matrem; solum verrtatem spectat justitia. Justice knows neither father nor mother; justice looks to the truth alone. Quod ad jus nattrale attinet omnes homines aequales sunt. All men are equal as far as the natural law is concerned. Accipere quid ut justitiam facias, non est tam accipere quam extorruere. The acceptance of a reward for doing justice is not so much an acceptance as an extortion. Justitia nemini neganda est. Justice is to be denied to no one. Plena et celeris justitia fiat partibus. Let full and speedy justice be done to the parties. Jure naturae aequum est neminem cum alterius detrimento et injuria fieri locupletiorem. According to the laws of nature, it is just that no one should be enriched by the detriment and injury of another. Fiat justitia, ruat coelum. Let right be done, though the heavens fall. Nihil magis justum est quam quod necessarium est. Nothing is more just than what is necessary. Lex non deficit in justitia exhibenda. The law does not fail in dispensing justice. Bonus judex secundum aequum et bonum judicat, et aequitatem stricto juri praefert. Good judges decide according to what is just and right, and prefer equity to strict law. Lex plus laudatur quando ratione probatur. The law is most praiseworthy when it is consistent with reason. Vigilantibus et non dormientibus jura subveniunt. The laws aid the vigilant and not those who slumber. Judex bonus nihil ex arbitrio suo faciat, nec propositione domesticae voluntatis, sed juxta leges et jura pronunciet. A good judge should do nothing of his own arbitrary will, nor on the dictate of his personal wishes, but should decide according to law and justice. Qui aliquid statterit, parte inaudita altera, aequum licet dixerit, haud aeeuum fecerit. He who decides anything without hearing both sides, although he may decide correctly, has by no means acted justly. Fraus et jus nunquam cohabitant. Fraud and justice never dwell together. Festinatio justitiae est noverca infortunii. The hastening of justice is the stepmother of misfortune. Commodum ex injuria sua non habere debet. No person ought to derive any advantage by his own wrong. Veritas habenda est in juratore; justitia et judicium in judice. Truth should be possessed by a juror; justice and judgment by a judge. Jus est ars boni et aequi. Law is the science of what is good and just. Lex est dictamen rationis. Law is the dictate of reason. Lex est ratio summa, quae jubet quae sunt utilia et necessaria et contraria prohibet. That which is law is the consummation of reason, which commands those things useful and necessary, while prohibiting the contrary. Sequi debet potentia justitiam, non praeeedere. Power ought to follow justice, not precede it. Summa caritas est facere justitiam singulis, et omni temmore quando necesse fuerit. The greatest charity is to do justice to everyone, and at all times when it is necessary.

JUSTICE. The constant and perpetual disposition to render every man his due.
Just. Inst. B. 1, tit. 1. Toullier defines it to be the conformity of our
actions and our will to the law. Dr. Civ. Fr. tit. prel. n. 5. In the most
extensive sense of the word, it differs little from virtue, for it includes
within itself the whole circle of virtues. Yet the common distinction
between them is that that which considered positively and in itself, is
called virtue, when considered relatively and with respect to others, has
the name of justice. But justice being in itself a part of virtue, is
confined to things simply good or evil, and consists in a man's taking such
a proportion of them as he ought.
2. Justice is either distributive or commutative. Distributive justice is that virtue whose object is to distribute rewards and punishments to each one according to his merits, observing a just proportion by comparing one person or fact with another, so that neither equal persons have unequal things, nor unequal persons things equal. Tr. of Eq. 3, and Toullier's learned note, Dr. Civ. Fr. tit. prel. n. 7, note.
3. Commutative justice is that virtue whose object it is to render to every one what belongs to him, as nearly as may be, or that which governs contracts. To render commutative justice, the judge must make an equality between the parties, that no one may be a gainer by another's loss. Tr. Eq. 3.
4. Toullier exposes the want of utility and exactness in this division of distributive and commutative justice, adopted in the compendium or abridgments of the ancient doctors, and prefers the division of internal and external justice; the first being a conformity of our will, and the latter a conformity of our actions to the law: their union making perfect justice. Exterior justice is the object of jurisprudence; interior justice is the object of morality. Dr. Civ. Fr. tit. prel. n. 6 et 7.
5. According to the Frederician code, part 1, book 1, tit. 2, s. 27, justice consists simply in letting every one enjoy the rights which he has acquired in virtue of the laws. And as this definition includes all the other rules of right, there is properly but one single general rule of right, namely, Give every one his own. See, generally, Puffend. Law of Nature and Nations, B. 1, c. 7, s. 89; Elementorum Jurisprudentiae Universalis, lib. 1, definito, 17, 3, 1; Geo. Lib. 2, c. 11, s. 3; Ld. Bac. Read. Stat. Uses, 306; Treatise of Equity, B. 1, c. 1, s. 1.

Suggested Tips on Saving Heat Energy during the Winter Season
- A temporary measure to stop drafts and heat loss is to roll a towel and place it against bottom of the door.
- Check your home for air leaks. Common sources of air leaks include cracks around doors and windows; gaps along baseboards; mail chutes and pet doors; cracks in brick, siding or foundation; and where external lines (phone, cable, etc.) enter your home.
- Close off rooms that you don't use very often. That way the warm air will stay where you need it most.
- Don't block electric baseboard heaters, radiators or heat registers, move furniture to allow heat to flow freely from these heating sources.
- If you have a ceiling fan, make sure to reverse the motor in order to disperse the warm air collecting near the ceiling.
- Open drapes & shades during the day to let in the light and warmth of the sun. Close them at night to keep out the cold.
- Prevent heat loss by sealing air leaks around windows and door frames with caulk and weather stripping. Use foam or plastic gaskets to insulate drafty electrical outlets along exterior walls.
- Remove and store your window air conditioner unit. These are conduits for cold air and will allow your warmed air to escape outside.
- Set your thermostat back 5-10 degrees when leaving your home or business for an extended period of time. Overall, however, keep the temperature fairly constant. Frequent changes will use more energy.
- Set your thermostat to the lowest possible comfort setting. At night, put an extra blanket or down comforter on the bed and turn down your thermostat 5 degrees or more.
- The location of a thermostat can sometimes determine how well it will function. The thermostat should never be located on an exterior wall, where it could be affected by hot or cold outdoor temperatures.
- Turn off kitchen, bath, and other ventilating fans when you are done. In one hour, these fans can pull a house full of warm air right out of your home.
- When entertaining in your home, turn the thermostat down a degree or two before your guests arrive. The additional body heat from your guests will make up the difference.
- You can save on energy by lowering your thermostat, for example, to 68 degrees versus maintain 75 degrees in your home or business. Programmable thermostats can be used to adjust temperature settings up to several times per day according to a present schedule.

Extra catch up
I gotta admit, I can see the fins circling.
It's funny how it happens, though. It starts with "Oh, this will make a good post. I'll just set that idea aside until I have time to flesh it out," then it morphs into "Maybe I can blend this story with the other one and just have a longer post," which soon becomes, "Okay, I'll just scrap those two and start fresh with this one," and suddenly a post-free month passes and I begin to think that maybe I should just pack it all in and go low-tech.
But here I am in my Fonzie finest, life jacket in place and fingers flying on the keyboard, in a (perhaps futile) attempt to salvage the ratings. And yet, I'm not quite sure where to begin, and if I really try to fill in all the gaps since the last time I wrote, this post will inevitably end up in the dead letter of office of half-written drafts.
So I will begin here:
I've been thinking a lot about how Bud's language has progressed, and about how sophisticated his use of mitigated echolalia has become (as, I might add, Barry Prizant predicted years ago). Bud has an enormous store of phrases and sentences filed in his brain and he's able to retrieve them in an instant, mentally flipping through to find the phrase or quote or snippet of language that most closely fits the real-life situation in which he finds himself. He is so skilled with it, in fact, that unless you know he's using scripts, you wouldn't know he's using scripts. Most people have brief conversations with him in passing and simply think his language is a little quirky.
A favorite recent example:
Bud was sick back in October - nothing serious, but it required a trip to the doctor. At the time, he was geared up to be a doctor for Halloween, so in preparation for his visit he donned his white lab coat, strapped on his head mirror, wrapped his stethoscope around his neck, and pulled a face mask over his mouth. He walked through the medical center with an air of authority and, to a person, the staff and nurses he met treated him with solemn respect: "Hello, Doctor. We're glad you've come to help us today." Bud nodded at them, told them they were welcome, and, through the use of doctor-visit scripts from Elmo and Blues Clues, generally reassured them that he was happy to be on the job.
We got into the exam room and Bud climbed up on the table as Nurse Dan walked into the room. "Hello again, Bud," he greeted us. "I see you you've become a doctor since the last time I saw you!"
"Well," Bud replied matter-of-factly, "I've gotta make a living somehow, you know."
"I hear you, Bud," Nurse Dan commiserated. "Don't we all."
"Yeah," Bud agreed. "Don't we all."
And there you have it. A quick little vignette from my life with Bud to get me started on what I hope will be a roll of more frequent posting.
I've gotta start blogging somewhere, you know.

Hi! Not sure how I found you but glad I did. I'm looking forward to reading more of your blog. I have a 3 & 1/2 year old with a dual dx - Williams syndrome and autism.

Take care,

You know, your blog is a gift to all of us who read it. More, though, it should be a gift to yourself. It's like exercise probably is, only I suck at exercise... you do it unwillingly sometimes, but afterwards you feel so much better. It's writing exercise. Natalie Golberg and Anne LaMott talk a lot about writing exercise, and I love them. I read them and I get a gift, they write and they get one too. I hope you keep giving us and yourself the gifts of your blog. It ain't always easy, but it's worth it.

I am so glad you are back! I have started, at the very least, 4 blogs in the past year with, "its been a long time..." and yet I've managed to get back in the habit. I hope you do too.
J's scripting is becoming more integrated. Your posts on echolalia were some of the first I ever read and they gave me hope. I laugh when people answer the way they think they should and he gets upset because they dont know the script.

I still have you bookmarked! I understand the selective use of echolalia scripts. Sometimes my son's scripts drive me crazy because I'm so tired of the repetition. I have to remember that they're a communication tool for him, not a teenage annoyance. Well, mostly.
- December 18, 2008 6:24 PM
So glad you're back! Don't jump the shark! We need MOM-NOS now more than ever! Missed you!!!
- December 18, 2008 8:11 PM
So glad to see you back here! I love this post. I have a client whom I've watched move through the stages of echolalia over the past 2+ years and her use of mitigated echolalia is very much like Bud's right now. I think I am one of the only people who can tell when she switches from echolalia to novel sentences - to me it's really obvious but I'm sure no one else would understand what had just changed. I find echolalia fascinating, and I think I first found you through that post you wrote about it, when I asked permission to pass it out to parents, which I still do all the time!

Look. You've been "gone" for a month, but still have a Koresh-like following! ;) Glad to see you back!
I am totally with you on the scripts. Then, when I have to explain to people that it's a script, they think I'm just making it up. Um, no. Even my mother doesn't believe my son can store all those scripts in his head, and that I can tell what is a script and what is not. I guess they've only heard Blues Clues 499 times- it doesn't cclick 'til 500. :)
Now go! Start a cult!
Eww... my verification word is fatops. Subliminal? Hmmm...

Yeah mom-nos you really jumped the shark all right! You and your Bud. That you took a month off is no problem. Writing of your quality must take its own sweet time, as do the real lives that inspire it. Down with instantaneity!!
Happy Holidays :)
- December 26, 2008 8:18 PM
Hi MOM-NOS from another fellow Mom-nos! I love your blog and Bud, he is so similar to my 3 year old echolalic, PDD-NOS Blue, and your posts have helped me tremendously. I probably never commented before, because I was still new to the diagnosis 9 months ago and just processing everything. I'm so glad you're writing again and hope you keep sharing, it's like a lifeline for me.
Like Bud, Blue retains a phenomenal number of scripts in memory, mitigates them & recently has begun using more original speech. Your Dr. Strangetalk post helped me at a critical time when all he was doing was scripting, and I can't thank you enough for writing about it. It's so great to hear how Bud's doing now, glad you had a wonderful Christmas!

Could cadmium be responsible for some of the neurological signs and symptoms of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
– Source: Medical Hypotheses, Jul 12, 2012
By Stefania Pacini, et al.
[Note: The heavy metal cadmium, a potential 'immunotoxin', is used in batteries, metal plating, and some paints and plastics; can be released into the environment by coal or oil burning, car exhaust, metal processing & other industrial operations. Based on its potential immune effects has been implicated in CFS, FM, environmental illnesses, thyroid dysfunction and more.]
According to the World Health Organization, Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) is a neurological disease characterized by widespread inflammation and multi-systemic neuropathology.
Aetiology and pathogenesis are unknown, and several agents have been proposed as causative agents or as factors perpetuating the syndrome. Exposure to heavy metals, with particular reference to mercury and gold in dental amalgams, has been considered among the triggers of ME/CFS.
Here we hypothesize that cadmium, a widespread occupational and environmental heavy metal pollutant, might be associated with some of the neurological findings described in ME/CFS.
In fact, ME/CFS patients show a decrease of the volume of the gray matter in turn associated with objective reduction of physical activity.
Cadmium induces neuronal death in cortical neurons through a combined mechanism of apoptosis and necrosis and it could then be hypothesized that cadmium-induced neuronal cell death is responsible for some of the effects of cadmium on the central nervous system, i.e. a decrease in attention level and memory in exposed humans as well as to a diminished ability for training and learning in rats, that are symptoms typical of ME/CFS.

This hypothesis can be tested by measuring cadmium exposure in a cohort of ME/CFS patients compared with matched healthy controls, and by measuring gray matter volume in un-exposed healthy controls, exposed non-ME/CFS subjects, un-exposed ME/CFS patients and exposed ME/CFS patients.
In addition, we hypothesize that cadmium exposure could be associated with reduced cerebral blood flow in ME/CFS patients because of the disruptive effects of cadmium on angiogenesis. In fact, cadmium inhibits angiogenesis and low global cerebral flow is associated with abnormal brain neuroimaging results and brain dysfunction in the form of reduced cognitive testing scores in ME/CFS patients.
This hypothesis can be tested by measuring cerebral cortex blood flow in un-exposed healthy controls, exposed non-ME/CFS subjects, un-exposed ME/CFS patients and exposed ME/CFS patients.
If our hypothesis is demonstrated correct, the consequences could affect prevention, early diagnosis, and treatment of ME/CFS.
Implications in early diagnosis could entail the evaluation of symptoms typical of ME/CFS in cadmium-exposed subjects as well as the search for signs of exposure to cadmium in subjects diagnosed with ME/CFS.
Nutritional supplementation of magnesium and zinc could then be considered, since:
• These elements have been proposed in the prophylaxis and therapy of cadmium exposure,
• And magnesium was demonstrated effective on ME/CFS patients' symptom profiles.

Inhibition theory is based on the basic assumption that, during the performance of any mental task, which requires a minimum of mental effort, the subject actually goes through a series of alternating states of distraction (non-work) and attention (work). These alternating states of distraction (state 0) and attention (state 1) are latent states, which cannot be observed and which are completely unaware to the subject.
Additionally, the concept of inhibition is introduced, which is also latent. The assumption is made, that during states of attention inhibition linearly increases with a certain slope a[1], and during states of distraction linearly inhibition decreases with a certain slope a[0]. According to this view the distraction states can be considered as a sort of recovery states. It is further assumed, that when the inhibition increases during a state of attention, depending on the amount of increase, the inclination to switch to a distraction state also increases and when the inhibition decreases during a state of distraction, depending on the amount of decrease, the inclination to switch to an attention state increases. The inclination to switch from one state to the other is mathematically described as a transition rate or hazard rate, which makes the whole process of alternating distraction times and attention times a stochastic process.
Theory Edit
If one thinks of a non-negative continuous random variable T as representing the time until some event will take place then the hazard rate λ(t) for that random variable is defined to be the limiting value of the probability that the event will take place in a small interval [t,t+Δt] given the event has not occurred before time t. divided by Δt. Formally, the hazard rate is defined by the following limit:
λ(t) = lim 1/Δt P(t ≤ T < t+Δt | T ≥ t) Δt->0
The transition rates λ[1](t), from state 1 to state 0, and λ[0](t), from state 0 to state 1, depend on inhibition Y(t): λ[1](t) = l[1](Y(t)) and λ[0](t) = l[0](Y(t)), where l[1] is a non-decreasing function and l[0] is a non-increasing function. Note, that l[1] and l[0] are dependent on Y, whereas Y is dependent on T. Specification of the functions l[1] and l[0] leads to the various inhibition models. What can be observed in the test are the actual reaction times. A reaction time is the sum of a series of alternating distraction times and attention times, which both cannot be observed. However, it is never-the-less possible to estimate from the observable reaction times some properties of the latent process of distraction times and attention times, such as the average distraction time, the average attention time and the ratio a[1]/a[0].
In order to be able to simulate the consecutive reaction times, inhibition theory has been specified into various inhibition models. One is the so-called beta inhibition model. In the beta-inhibition model, it is assumed that the inhibition Y(t) oscillates between two boundaries which are 0 and M (M for Maximum), where M is positive. In this model l[1] and l[0] are as follows:
c[1]M l[1](y) = _____ with c[1] > 0 M - y
c[0] l[0](y) = ____ with c[0] > 0. y
Note that, according to the first assumption, as y goes to M (during a work interval), l[1](y) goes to infinity and this forces a transition to a state of rest before the inhibition can reach M. Note further that, according to the second assumption, as y goes to zero (during a distraction), l[0](y) goes to infinity and this forces a transition to a state of work before the inhibition can reach zero.
For a work interval starting at t[0] with inhibition level y[0]=Y(t[0]) the transition rate at time t[0]+t is given by λ[1](t) = l[1](y[0]+a[1]t). For a non-work interval starting at t[0] with inhibition level y[0]=Y(t[0]) the transition rate is given by λ[0](t) = l[0](y[0]-a[0]t). Therefore
c[1]M λ[1](t) = ________________ with c[1] > 0 M - (y[0]+a[1]t)
c[0] λ[0](t) = __________ with c[0] > 0. y[0]-a[0]t
The model has Y fluctuating in the interval between 0 and M. The stationary distribution of Y/M in this model is a beta distribution (reason to call it the beta inhibition model).
The total real working time until the conclusion of the task (or the task unit in case of a repetition of equivalent unit tasks, such as is the case in the ACT) is referred to as A. The average stationary response time E(T) may written as
E(T) = A + (a[1]/a[0])A.
For M goes to infinity λ[1](t) = c[1]. This model is known as the gamma - or Poisson inhibition model (see Smit and van der Ven, 1995).

rec. 27-29 August 2012, Curtis Auditorium, CIT Cork School of Music.
Prior to writing this review Id just submitted my thoughts on the other Nimbus CD which arrived in the post with it, a 30-track reissue of music recorded by The Four Freshmen in their heyday from 1951 to 1960. It was immaculately transferred and their music-making is still very well worth hearing (RTR4219). Together these two discs are a reminder of what a versatile range of repertoire the folk at Wyastone Leys cover.
The Britten centenary gives us an opportunity to get to know the music of his mentor, Frank Bridge, much better. Nimbus are certainly doing their bit in that regard: last year they released a recording of the Phantasy Piano Quartet on another Alliance recording, NI6183. There its coupled with the Walton, as here, and Guillaume Lekeus Piano Quartet of 1893 in performances by the Frith Piano Quintet. Jonathan Woolf liked that performance better than their rivals, the London Bridge Ensemble, on Dutton, but, though happy with the Frith Quartet, preferred the Maggini Quartet with Martin Roscoe on Naxos to either review. Paul Godfrey was even more impressed with a performance in sparkling form review.
My own benchmark for the Bridge is the recording from the Dartington Piano Trio with Patrick Ireland (viola) on a budget Hyperion Helios recording (CDH55063, with the Phantasie Trio and Trio No.2), recommended by Rob Barnett here and included with other recordings of Bridge in what I described as a treasure trove of English chamber music in my 2013/4 Download News.
The music is dramatic and rhapsodic by turns and, though the work is not particularly memorable, Bridge had developed an individual voice thats well worth listening to. Nimbus contain the whole work on one track, Hyperion track the sections separately. In terms of performance and recording theres very little to choose between the two, with each capturing both the drama perhaps a little more of this on Hyperion and the rhapsody. The Hyperion is inexpensive, especially if downloaded from hyperion-records.co.uk for £5.99 (mp3 or lossless), though the Nimbus recording wont break the bank if purchased from MusicWeb International, currently for £12, post free here and many will prefer the all-Bridge programme. Both booklets are helpful and informative, though the Hyperion is shorter than usual, with just two pages of notes.
To the best of my knowledge theres only one current rival recording of the Bax, more adventurously coupled with music by Dunhill, Hurlstone and Quilter (Primrose Piano Quartet, Meridian CDE84519: Recording of the Month review). You may find the Meridian recording hard to come by, but its available as a CD or download from amazon.co.uk here and it can be downloaded for £4.20 or less from emusic.com here. I didnt have access to this recording and its not available from the otherwise invaluable Naxos Music Library, but Spotify came to the rescue its amazing what a wide-ranging repertoire they have and very handy for making comparisons, though the ads on the free version are rather annoying. Fortunately the Bax is in one movement, so there are no ads between movements. Theres plenty of drama, even aggression, in the music and less of the contrasting repose present in the Bridge; whenever the music is allowed to breathe a little, the mood soon intensifies again. The Primrose Quartet are a little more urgent, though without sounding over-aggressive, completing the quartet in 11:26 against 12:40 on the new Nimbus recording. In practice, theres much less difference than those timings would suggest so, again, if the Nimbus coupling appeals then go for it.
The novelty on the new recording is provided by Ian Wilsons Noct, a work commissioned by the Cappa Ensemble, so theres every reason to regard their performance as authoritative, with no benchmark against which to judge. I wouldnt purchase the CD for this alone but its certainly not out of place among these works of a century or so earlier those with a phobia of the avant-garde need have no fears. Here is a talented young composer of whom Id like to hear more.
I had expected to find the Walton Piano Quartet better provided for in the catalogue than the six recordings which seem currently to be generally available. Jonathan Woolf and Paul Godfrey both liked the Frith on the earlier Nimbus disc, though both had reservations about whether potential buyers would want the Lekeu coupling. Certainly the Bax single-movement quartet makes a more logical partner, unless you followed Rob Barnetts advice and bought the Meridian recording of that work, listed above.
There are also front runners from the Maggini Quartet and Peter Donohoe, with the String Quartet (1947) keen value on Naxos 8.554646 at budget price and the Nash Ensemble, with other Walton works, on Hyperion CDA67340. Comparing these in my May 2012/1 Download Roundup, I wrote that both these competing recordings of the Piano Quartet are excellent. Both come with informative booklets and both are offered in good mp3. That said, the Hyperion coupling is more varied and more generously coupled especially attractive if you already have a version of the String Quartet and Hyperions lossless sound can be yours for the same price as the mp3. These remain obvious choices for anyone seeking an all-Walton programme.
The Cappa Ensemble take the opening allegramente at a cracking pace, slightly faster than the Nash Ensemble and only very slightly slower than the Magginis, and the music benefits. The second movement, too, allegro scherzando, is also a little faster than the Nash version and only slightly slower than the Maggini; again, the music goes with an appealing swing without sounding helter-skelter. In the remaining two movements the Cappa players are a little slower than either of their rivals; in the third movement they achieve a real andante tranquillo without failing to match the allegro molto marking of the finale. In the event I didnt need to nit-pick by making detailed comparisons with my benchmarks, though I listened to the Maggini version soon after with equal satisfaction.
Even setting aside the Ian Wilson work, of which there is no rival recording, no other CD duplicates these three works from the early twentieth century and though an all-Bridge or an all-Walton programme might be more to your liking, there are good reasons for having the Bridge, Bax and Walton together. While individual rivals may be slightly preferable in some respects, theres never much in it and theres the additional attraction of discovering a talented young group of performers. With very good recording throughout and informative notes, this is a fine addition to the roster of Nimbus Alliance recordings.

Ark. legislators vote down Medicaid bill again
Legislation to continue Arkansas' compromise Medicaid expansion has again failed in the state House.
The House on Wednesday voted 68-27 to reauthorize funding for the "private option" that was approved last year as an alternative to expanding Medicaid's enrollment under the federal health law. The measure needed at least 75 votes in the 100-member House.
The measure had failed a day earlier, falling five votes shy on Tuesday.
Under the private option, Arkansas is using federal Medicaid funds to purchase private insurance for thousands of low-income residents.
House Speaker Davy Carter has said the House will keep voting on the measure until it passes. Senate leaders say they have the 27 votes needed to pass the measure in the 35-member chamber.

Package will launch April 12 at London's ICA.
BAFTA is working in partnership with the Independent Cinema Office to launch theatrical screenings of this year's BAFTA nominated live-action and animated shorts. It is the first time that BAFTA has worked on a theatrical release of the shorts.
The package will screen from April 2013 in select UK cinemas, and nominated filmmakers will also attend select screenings to discuss their work.
BAFTA Shorts 2013 will open on April 12 at the ICA in London followed by a UK roll-out, booked by the ICO.
Films to be included in the package include animations Here To Fall by Kris Kelly, I'm Fine Thanks by Eamonn O'Neill, and The Making of Longbird by Will Anderson; plus live-action films The Curse [pictured] by Fyzal Boulifa, Good Night by Muriel d'Ansembourg, Swimmer by Lynne Ramsay, and Tumult by Johnny Barrington.
BAFTA Guru, BAFTA's online learning portal, will include clips from the films and further information about the nominees. Also, the filmmakers will blog on BAFTA Guru about their experiences.
Tim Hunter, Head of Learning and Events at BAFTA, said: "This partnership between BAFTA and the Independent Cinema Office is an important development of BAFTA's role as a champion of talent - in particular new talent. It's all too rare that short films get a theatrical outing on the big screen outside of festivals, and this release is an opportunity for audiences not only to appreciate the art form of short filmmaking in and of itself, but also to get to know filmmakers whose star is in the ascendant."

March for Science started in the United States of America as a response to the moves of the newly elected Trump administration aimed to restrict scientific knowledge especially regarding climate change for the benefit of corporations which will be the most affected by the cuts to greenhouse gas emissions. At its beginnings, it was a broad call for the people to stand for science against Trump's repression of scientific knowledge and information blackout on climate change.
As the impacts of Trump's policies which blatantly deny climate change will directly affect not only the United States, the biggest historical carbon emitter, but the entire world as well, March for Science soon grew into a global movement of people to defend science as an indispensable tool for society building and policy making.
In the Philippines, scientists, environmentalists, and grassroots organizations from various sectors will march on Earth Day 2017 to express solidarity for the global movement as well as advocate for local issues and call for a science and technology sector that will genuinely serve the interests of the majority.
The March for Science, Environment, and the People is a nationwide campaign that seeks to showcase how the struggle for the development of science and technology is intertwined with that of the environment and of the people: how science and technology can provide concrete solutions for the real issues faced by the Filipino people.
March for Science!
Science and technology (S&T) has a vital role as a catalyst for national progress and development especially in a developing country where innovations in S&T can both provide immediate relief to the people as well as create long term solutions that address their issues at its roots. To enable S&T to contribute to genuine national progress, it needs to be developed under a comprehensive plan that is geared towards addressing domestic needs.
In the Philippines, science and technology was historically undertaken not as an instrument for national development but as a means to answer foreign demands. Content with basic science that is able to follow instructions to use technology developed by other countries, Philippine S&T has been stunted by neglect and non-prioritization as reflected in many programs and policies that restrict and actively obstruct its development. This lead our local S&T to be underdeveloped and backward in the face of global scientific advancement.
The backward and stunted state of S&T in the Philippines is a manifestation of the lack of industries in the country, a situation which does not encourage the development of S&T. Unable to process our own products for domestic use, we are bound to the export of raw materials and import of finished products to meet our demands.
The little technology and modernization we do have is confined to city centers, leaving it unavailable to a large number of people especially farmers in the rural areas who can use technology for agricultural modernization.
Our country lacks a comprehensive plan for the science and technology sector that includes research and development (R&D) as one of its primary thrusts. Without R&D, we are incapable of developing new technologies or improving on existing ones, and we are limited to our ability to imitate emerging technology from other countries.
This lack of support for S&T is one of the reasons why more and more scientists choose to work abroad where they are secured of their jobs and welfare. The few who stay are riddled with problems such as contractualization, no tenurial security, absence of welfare and benefits, and others.
Science is a powerful tool that can cut both ways; while scientific and technological advance can be used for national development, it can also be used to repress it. There is need to identify who stands to benefit from the science we are marching for.
We are marching for the development of a science and technology sector geared towards national industrialization that will address domestic needs and will benefit the majority of the Filipino people. Contrary to serving merely as a 'technological fix', the development of this type of S&T will aid in finding solutions to issues of the environment and of the people.
March for the Environment!
The issue of the environment is an issue of science and technology. We fail to maximize our country's vast natural resources such as water, minerals and ores, varied energy sources, and others, because we do not have the means to utilize them. For example, mineral production in the Philippines remains bound to the extraction phase as we lack industries to process minerals to end products.
The plunder of the biggest corporations and countries on global natural resources and the environment adds to the vulnerability we already face as a small developing country. Despite the presence of international agreements that seek to minimize the effects of climate change, we are witness to business as usual levels of fossil fuel consumption. In the Philippines, the increased use of pollutive energy sources such as coal and the proposed use of the unstable and potentially harmful Bataan Nuclear Power Plant are examples of the biggest environmental issues we face.
Our primitive science and technology also aggravates our inability to adapt to climate change. With the continuing plunder of natural resources and without the capacity to create or use technologies that increase our adaptability and resiliency in the face of major disasters, we are held even more vulnerable to the adverse impacts of climate change.
March for the People!
The Filipino people are burdened by many issues that are manifestations of the lack of industries coupled with the backward and stunted state of S&T. A developed S&T can serve as a backbone towards the solution of the people's issues. National industrialization will create industries for domestic needs, in turn producing jobs and products which the people need.
A science and technology sector that is developed under a comprehensive plan geared towards national industrialization will help address the long standing issues faced by the people. More than developing on S&T for its own sake, this type of science and technology can genuinely serve in the interests of the people.
Unite the broadest range of scientists, environmentalists, workers, farmers, students, and other sectors, to call for environmental justice and greater support to a science and technology that will genuinely serve the interests of the people!
March with us!
This event is part of the March for Science international movement.
The first European Congress of Biotechnology in Interlaken, Switzerland, in 1978 marked the inauguration of the European Federation of Biotechnology (EFB). In 2018, we are delighted to welcome you back to Switzerland to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the longest running biotechnology congress in Europe. Between Lake Geneva and surrounding mountains, ECB2018 will be held in the beautiful and vibrant city of Geneva.
EFB began as a rather small group of working parties from different European countries. Their interests ranged from fermentation technology to the public perception of biotechnology, applied microbiology and genetics, downstream processing and measurement and control. Forty years later, EFB is now open to all who share our mission of promoting the safe, sustainable and ethical use of biological systems for the benefit of mankind. The current 30,000 personal members, who span the world from Latin America to China, Korea and Japan, is also a reflection of the success of recent EFB congresses.
About Program
It brings together farmers and other stakeholders from Asia to learn about plant biotechnology through first-hand experience by visiting plant biotech commercial farms and R&D biotech facilities; and interacting with farmers, scientists, media and policymakers.

Call it what you will. But what it is, is a list of the "50 Most Beautiful People" working at the Capitol according to The Hill, which generally writes about Congressional leadership, health care reform, legislation and the more serious side of the issues facing Congress.
And just like any beauty pageant there always seems to be a Californian in the bunch. And this time there's a "pretty high percentage" of Californians, remarks Bob Cusack, editor of The Hill. Seven out of the 50 on the list to be exact.
"It's lovely," says Congresswoman Anna Eshoo (D-CA) who says she's "astounded" by the reaction of her colleagues and "good cheer and teasing and compliments which felt good for a day but then it's back to the salt mines."
For Eshoo , the salt mines mean working to help her Silicon Valley constituents through the recession.
"I don't think anyone in this country hasn't been affected. I think Americans have been blessed for a long time, " she says.
For one thing she says, "we need to build a new energy future for our country. It would produce millions of jobs. We don't make too many things in our country anymore. We need to be making things in America. Obviously education is key to that but many workers don't have credentials like my constituents in the Silicon Valley have, so there should be places in the country to teach them."
Eshoo whom The Hill described as having Sophia Loren-esque looks is the oldest among the "Beautiful People," at 67. The average age of the others on the entire list is somewhere in their 20s.
Congresswoman Judy Chu (D-CA) said it was "total shock" when she found out she not only made the list but was in the Top Ten. But like Eshoo, the fun is mixed with the serious side of helping out the "people who are hurting in East L.A. where the unemployment rate is 16.75 percent", which she describes as "unacceptable."
So she is pushing hard for an extension of a temporary federal job subsidy program known as "Jobs Now," which has produced 11,000 jobs in the past year. It expires at the end of September.
U.S. & World
News from around the country and around the globe
"People need to get back on their feet while going through this recession. It won't go on forever, so we need a bridge in a difficult time period."
She says she's also working on a positive alternative to school improvement programs, called Strengthening Our Schools, with the philosophy that there is no "one size fits all solution." Chu's district includes kids whose parents hold down two or three jobs at a time and have never been to college or speak English as a second language.
Even when you talk to the less experienced, among the "Beautiful Californians" on Capitol Hill, they too laughed about making the list. Twenty-seven-year-old Bret Manley said he was nominated for the past two or three years (he can't remember). The guys especially, he said, make fun of it all. He's single and grew up in San Dimas and went to UC Berkeley.
He's Congressman Gary Miller's (R-CA) financial services policy adviser. So when you hear politicians on the floor say they'll "consult their staff," that means people like Bret who sift through and analyze the legislation and make it into plain speak. He is surrounded by all the talk about recession and sees it when he goes home to San Dimas to "empty strip malls, foreclosures in my neighborhood."
And then there's 23-year-old Allison Sadoian, who's the scheduler for Congressman George Radanovich (R-Calif.). It was a college internship in D.C., that lead to a job in Radanovich's office in Fresno, that lead to a full time job at his office on Capitol Hill where she loves her life. Her advice to people younger than her? Be "persistent. It takes working long hours, giving up your social life sometimes, definitely putting yourself out there and going for it. Don't stop till you reach goals and set new goals."
The Hill's editor told me they really had no criteria for deciding who made the list other than their own staff making the choice among hundreds of submissions. Looks, personality, interaction with staff definitely played a part. And there are no repeats. President Obama made The List before.
So when you take a look at the List of the 50 Most Beautiful People it's worth it to dig deeper beyond the surface, because it's likely you might find more.

Miss Fortune at the Royal Opera House
Helen Wallace takes a gamble on Judith Weir's new opera at Covent Garden
There was a stifling sense of bathos at Covent Garden last night. An audience, many of whom were surely there because they admire Judith Weir and her work, walked around at the interval in baffled silence. What had happened to the wise, subtle, formidable Weir? How did this grotesquely banal parody of an opera get made?
By the radiant end of Act Two, bathos was edging into relief. The last 35 minutes at least had some dramatic shape, and the clarity, economy, and spacious sonorities of Weir's style emerged in the score. But we were still left with a so-what story, no one to care about and, toe-curlingly, a cast in which the black 'break-dancing' characters were the criminal element. That might have washed in provincial Bregenz, where this opera was premiered last year, but in London it beggared belief.
Weir based her piece on a 19th century Sicilian tale, in which a little rich girl (soprano Emma Bell in glorious voice) leaves her wealthy parents, works for a living, loses and then wins money in a twist of Fate (the honey-voiced but underpowered countertenor Andrew Watts), gives it all away and rides off into the sunset with a Prince Simon (the charismatic Jacques Imbrailo).
Even from that synopsis the problems are clear: our heroine is not transformed by this episode in the 'real world' (ironing a few shirts in a Laundromat isn't exactly hard labour), and there's no character development. It's like a charmless Candide without any jokes, or The Rake's Progress (which it clearly references) without its tragic heart. Instead of the chilling Shadow, we have the distinctly un-menacing character of Fate, whose only interventions appear to be connected with material loss or gain. He sparks off a stock-market crash at the beginning, a storm (the rising and falling scales in the orchestra were like something out of an end of term revue) and then organises the destruction of a kebab van, and the losing and winning of a lottery ticket. This two-dimensional notion of Fate itself means that when the love interest arrives on stage (very late in the day) in the shape of Jacques Imbrailo's Simon, nothing has led up to that moment, and their sudden coupling is inexplicable.
It's not the first time Weir has based a work on folktale – her dark, edgy Blond Eckbert had the quality of a fairytale and her memorably poignant The Vanishing Bridegroom was constructed from three folk tales – but Miss Fortune lacked an emotional core. Nor is it the first time she's written her own libretto, though this one was peculiarly cliché-ridden (we even had a 'light bulb' moment). And this was probably the most spectacular staging one of her operas has ever received, a mesmerising rollercoaster of translucent colours, neon lighting and angular abstract shapes (by Tom Pye) directed with fluidity and flair by Chen Shi-Zheng. But for all its visual allure, Miss Fortune is a flat tale, neither tragedy nor comedy, nor conversation piece. A couplet in the Laundromat scene says it all: 'No resistance, press it flat, Life is going to be like that.'

I know it's kind of soon or too early to be mentioning a character from an upcoming movie that isn't going to be released until November of this year, but I just had to do this character because he is so interesting looking. For my last lesson for the day I will be showing you "how to draw Jack Frost" from Rise of the Guardians, step by step. Now because this is such a new movie, there isn't any character information on him as of yet. All I can tell you is that his character is going to be voiced by Chris Pine. If you don't know who Chris Pine is, you may remember him in the Star Trek film as he plays the young Captain James T Kirk. Rise of the Guardians is based on William Joyce's books, 'The Guardians of Childhood'. DreamWorks is going to be producing the film, and it will be in theaters on November 21, 2012. The story premise reminds me a lot of some other films like Hood Winked, and other fairytale based CGI movies. The main figures of the story are going to be Santa Claus, Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy, and Jack Frost. Of course every story line has to have a bad guy, and in this case it's the Boogeyman named Pitch. The four guardians go on a quest to stop Pitch from sending the entire world into darkness for all time. Jack Frost is a young lad that goes on a journey with the rest of the crew. I had a lot of fun drawing him, and I think you will enjoy drawing Jack Frost as well. I will meet you guys back here at eight for another session of Livestream so stick around or come back.

The Kitchen Denver in LoDo launches weekend lunch this Saturday
Good news for downtown diners: The Kitchen Denver in LoDo, which opened earlier this year, launches a weekend lunch service starting Saturday.
The lunch service runs 11 a.m.-5 p.m., with the same contemporary American lunch menu as weekdays. "Not brunch. No foo-foo drinks," promises the restaurant, which sits at the corner of Wazee and 16th streets and is the sister restaurant of its Boulder sibling.
The lunch menu is a winner. Along with a big raw bar featuring fresh shellfish, there are pastas, an excellent chargrilled lamb burger, estimable steak frites and such vegetarian dishes as Turlu Turlu, a zippy mix of chickpeas, parsnips, celeriac, potato, spiced tomato and cumin yogurt.
In today's Denver Post, the restaurant received a three-star review.
