End battle broken..
BlueSpark 12 Mar 2016 02:32
I don't know who made "bossrush_debug.zip" but the final Boss battle is pretty broken, the squadmakers have been disabled so that only 1 Boss spawns (the critical one). Whilst this might well be useful for debug purposes, it certainly isn't good for gameplay! This version should never have been uploaded if it's actually a map-testing edit.
If I can fix it properly I'll post an alternative version to the current one.

Why vote? Why vote yes?
This year, as we begin to celebrate 40 years of independence, the Christie administration is determined to focus the nation's attention and get its input on several important matters that have either been present in our lives for the past four decades, or that may become an important part of our future. In order to accomplish this objective, Mr. Christie has foreshadowed three instances in which his government will invite the populace to express its views on issues of national importance. The first will be a non-constitutional referendum on regulating and taxing web shop operations and establishing a national lottery on January 28 of this year.
Secondly, a constitutional referendum is foreshadowed sometime before we celebrate our 40th independence anniversary. The government also plans to conduct another non-constitutional referendum on the issue of whether or not to permit oil exploration in our pristine waters sometime thereafter.
This week we would like to Consider This… in the upcoming referendum on January 28, should Bahamians vote and how should they vote?
An historical first
This month's referendum will be the first time in Bahamian history that a non-constitutional referendum will be held. We have heard the objections of some who ask: Why do we need a referendum on these matters? The simple answer is that a referendum is not really required. However, unlike his predecessor in office, the current prime minister is a consensus builder, a quintessential democrat who believes that such fundamental policies should be informed by public discourse, debate and deliberation, not just the Cabinet or prime ministerial directive.
The religious argument
There are some in our society who have sought to reduce their opposition to the regulation and taxation of web shops and the establishment of a national lottery to Biblical precepts. However, they are hard-pressed to support their tenuous positions. There is not a single, direct Biblical text which posits that participation in gaming activities is either sinful or offensive to God. Not one! Sure, there are some references that can be "interpreted" as tangentially supportive of such an hypothesis, but as regards a specific divine prohibition, the Scriptures are silent. The infinitely more learned theological scholars who head the Roman Catholic, Anglican and Methodist congregations in our community have themselves resisted such an untenable translation of the Holy Scriptures. It would be instructive for the uninformed to read the pastoral letters that were recently issued by the Roman and Anglican prelates on this subject. So much for a firm basis for a religious argument against the subject of the referendum.
The economic argument
If we accept the assertions of experts in The Bahamas, the gaming industry here is just that – an industry. The web shops, by their own admission, account for an annual turnover of $300 to $400 million and employ more than 3,000 Bahamians, arguably our third largest industry after tourism and financial services. This revenue, however, remains outside the real economy because we have chosen, like the proverbial ostrich, to bury our heads in the sand and quietly pretend that it does not exist. The unfortunate reality is that such denial has the effect of criminalizing the activity of at least 50,000 participants, keeping it in the "underground economy", unregulated and untaxed. The same can be said for the operators who have personified an entrepreneurial spirit.
If we conservatively accept that the taxes that we do not collect from this industry represent at least $10 million annually, an extremely conservative estimate by any stretch, then, since our independence 40 years ago, the government has failed to collect a minimum of $400 million in tax revenue during that period from this underground economic powerhouse. Imagine what could have been accomplished by having that kind of revenue stream in our public coffers over the past four decades. Imagine what kind of good could be done for our future by introducing that kind of revenue stream now.
This injection of revenue does not include other benefits such as payroll, contributions to National Insurance, telecommunications and electricity income, rental income and stamp taxes from financial and real estate transactions, just to mention a few.
The ethical argument
There are ethical considerations that should be factored into the gaming equation. The current state of affairs criminalizes persons – both operators and participants – who engage in such gaming activities. On the one hand, because of the existing legal construct, we have accepted that it is perfectly permissible for Bahamians to participate in lotteries and other gaming activities when we travel abroad. However, the minute we return to our shores, we are instantaneously morphed into criminals if we wish to engage in the very same activity in which we participated abroad. This reality represents the highest form of hypocrisy and is symptomatic of a severe case of national schizophrenia. Such behavior results in a form of national insanity that borders on the idiotic.
Why vote? Why vote yes?
There are numerous benefits that can be derived by voting yes in the impending referendum.
• A yes vote will legally recognize a reality that has been an integral and ingrained part of our community and culture for many decades.
• A yes vote will positively contribute to our national coffers by providing additional revenue that is presently beyond the reach of the government.
• A yes vote will enable us to truly diversify our economy.
• A yes vote will foster a well-regulated industry that will emerge from the shadows into the light.
• A yes vote will open a new industry not only for the present operators, but also for those who qualify for future operations.
• A yes vote will open this industry to also include groups of entrepreneurial Bahamians as well as companies who could finance their gaming enterprises by offering shares to the public, making this industry truly open and owned by the public.
• A yes vote will enable the government to have additional funds to allocate for education, sports, culture and public health initiatives.
• A yes vote will open the possibility of creating a school of entrepreneurship established by these Bahamian entrepreneurs who can also impart their industry experience by mentoring young Bahamians.
• A yes vote will prevent us from having to continue to expend exponentially large funds in policing an illegal and unregulated industry.
• A yes vote will enable us to prevent the possibility of falling into the trap of having our country blacklisted by powerful forces beyond our borders who will surely insist that we are contributing to money laundering and the funding of terrorist activities.
In the upcoming referendum on January 28, it will be important to exercise our right as citizens to be heard when our government asks our opinion. If we do not use this, our very first opportunity to be heard in this manner, we endanger ever being asked again. This is an expensive exercise that government will not likely undertake again if the citizens do not respond. Should the turnout be small, history will see this as a setback to the broader and more inclusive new democracy we are being offered with this referendum.
On referendum day, it will be important for us to vote and to vote yes.

Welcome to another addition of the CEO's Corner, I hope you had an opportunity to read my second post https://www.gast.co.za/maybe-its-time/ which was written earlier this month. As you know these pieces are written in the early hours of the morning with a cup of Joe and not enough caffeine stimuli, therefore please be gentle when reading them.
If you've had some time to scan through the GAST website www.gast.co.za you would have noticed that we say the word Family more than once, well actually a lot more than once. In the modern day and age most companies of our size are public companies or have various shareholders etc. GAST is technically speaking a 3rd generation family privately owned business similar to our friends Bechtel @Bechtel who is a 5th generation owned family business.
We are real people with our own families and even though we are a Corporate entity we still have real family values. We believe in doing business ethically, add value and genuinely care about our clients, their projects and how we can assist them to make their lives easier & better. It's a cornerstone of who and what GAST stands for. We have a few motto's that we live by at GAST and we remind ourselves of them on a daily basis:
GAST would not be where it is today without the support of our Customers, the GAST Staff and our communities. We are thankful and humble of our achievements and what the future holds for GAST.
That being said, maybe it's time all businesses start caring again, caring about their employees, their clients, their client's projects, their suppliers and creditors. We all say as part of the Marketing strategy "we care" but do we really ? Have we not forgotten what it means to really care ? In the world we live today, time is probably our most valuable commodity as we are all running out of it, whether you are the richest man on the planet or the most spiritual, time is something you cannot buy. In a famous roundtable with Microsoft mogul Bill Gates hosted by Charlie Rose, billionaire investor Warren Buffett said this of time: "It's the only thing you can't buy. I mean, I can buy anything I want basically but I can't buy time." So if time is so precious why are we not using it more effectively to actually start caring about one another again?
GAST is attempting to break the barriers in how we do business, we are trying to get back to a time where business could be done on a handshake and there is mutual respect and trust between the parties. However business principals like that are long forgotten, the norm now is 1000 pages long contractual documents being amended on a daily basis in an attempt to mitigate and manage potential risk. Which is probably not a bad thing, however imagine how great it would be if it was done on a handshake and everyone stuck to their agreements and personal ethics, morals and something like trust should not have to be doubted.
There are still people, very powerful people and companies that operate on a handshake basis, they are far and few between but they exist. I remember doing business with Atterbury Properties @AtterburyProp and their founder Louis van der Watt is one of these people. As one of the largest property developers in Africa, Atterbury and Louis still have those values that have long been forgotten or companies like McCormick Property Developers @McCormickProp and their CEO Jason McCormick. Those values are something we all should attempt to achieve even if it costs you, your last piece of bread, luckily you still have your dignity, morals and ethics intact. You can always make money again to buy a bread but if you've lost your dignity, morals and ethics you are going to have a hard time to find them again.
Let us all try and find the time to start caring again, let us try and do business with good morals, ethics and start trusting one another again. Your word should be your bond no matter what the consequences are! Business is tough, being a businessman/businesswoman takes great responsibility. Make no mistake caring doesn't mean you should be soft or a pushover, on the contrary it means sticking to your personal moral code, ensuring you do business ethically and looking after your clients, employees and community no matter what the consequences are. Be brave, be humble and keep fighting the good fight.
In closing, GAST might not be the ideal company, actually far from it, but we are trying to make a difference not only in our industry but worldwide. We will support you as much as you support us, we want to challenge the norm of doing business whilst maintaining those values and ensuring we care about our clients, our employees and our communities. We want to be part of your family, will you be part of ours?

India's parliament erupted in anger on Wednesday after television footage showed a hardline Hindu nationalist politician apparently trying to force-feed a Muslim man during the fasting month of Ramadan.
Opposition Congress MPs launched raucous protests, saying the politician in question had violated the man's religious beliefs by aggressively trying to shove a chapati or piece of bread into his mouth.
"It is absolutely reprehensible and should be condemned in the strongest possible manner," Congress party spokesman Manish Tewaritold reporters later.
Rajan Baburao Vichare is a member of the the hardline Hindu nationalist group Shiv Sena, a key ally of the the prime minister Narendra Modi's Bharatiya Janata party (BJP), which swept to power at May elections.
The incident is likely to fan concern among Muslims and other religious minorities over Modi's Hindu nationalist government.
In the footage, which was aired on national television, a group of Shiv Sena politicians can be seen confronting a catering supervisor in New Delhi last Thursday. They were complaining about the quality of food offered at a guest house for officials from the state of Maharashtra, where Shiv Sena is based.
Vichare can be seen attempting several times to push the bread into the supervisor's mouth as a crowd gathered. Vichare said he was not trying to break the supervisor's religious fast, but trying to demonstrate that the chapatis served were too hard.
"This was only a protest against the quality of food and other arrangements at the Maharashtra Sadan [guest house] where all the important dignitaries come and stay," Vichare told the Headlines Today news channel.
"The canteen management here is in a bad state. The chapatis they made didn't even break. The quality of vegetables and pulses is bad."
"Making this a religious issue doesn't make sense," he said. The catering company's general manager said the supervisor had been "deeply pained and hurt" over the incident as "religious sentiments are attached".
The manager said the politicians had marched into the dining hall flanked by television crews and threw kitchen items around.
"They also issued physical threats to the kitchen and service staff while using highly objectionable language," the manager said in an email to a Maharashtra government official, which was obtained by the Indian Express.
Shiv Sena, which has a history of intimidation and creating unrest against minorities, won 18 seats at the election and is now the sixth biggest party in parliament.

Given that teaching literature has frequently become a matter of fostering deference for the diligent expert in the "field," it is simply, as a volume, not good enough. One's heart sinks at the thought of the innumerable mid-terms and final exams in which it wül be discovered, to everybody's satisfaction , that Stephen's emendations were aesthetic rather than Gmndian, or that he might as well have objected to the whole novel. Professor Schweik's rigour over accurate accidentals is not matched by rigorous proofing, and the many misprints range from the felicitous Dorsetshire "voilets" to the very annoying "Gerbert, Helmut E." Loraine Fletcher Arizona State University VIRGINIA WOOLF Alex Zwerdling. Virginia Woolf and the Real World. Berkeley and London: University of California Press, 1986. $24.95 That apparently innocent conjunction "and" may be the most problematic term in Alex ZwerdUng's study, Virginia Woolf and the Real World. Woolf, as Zwerdling observes, has survived the benign appreciation that once relegated her to the rank of interesting but minor romancers whose fabrications, like the postprandial reveries of Lady Bruton in Mrs. Dalloway, were connected to the world of others by the thinnest of threads. With the publication of her diaries, memoirs, and letters, Woolf now appears to us as a complex Uterary personality , a "Proteus" who presents different aspects to her reader—the experimental modemist, the mystic, the committed feminist and radical pacifist. Zwerdling dismisses the possibility entertained in Orlando, that there might exist a key self who controls and amalgamates aU the various selves Woolf had it in her to be, just as he neglects to mention that Proteus, if tackled with determination, will re-assume his "true" appearance. ZwerdUng prefers to single out for emphasis Woolf's "strong interest in realism, history and the social matrix," to isolate the manner in which Woolf speaks of and to the real world. He would assess Woolf's achievements in terms of the dialogue that ensued, one that embraced questions on the central topics of modem society: issues of class (the role of the intelligentsia), money, feminism and pacifism. In ZwerdUng's analysis, Woolf s responses to these issues were conditioned by those "invisible presences" that Woolf maintained comprise "our consciousness of other groups impinging upon ourselves; public opinions; what other people say and think; all those magnets which attract us this way to be like that, or repel us the other and make us different from that." What might be the relation between consciousness and the invisible presences that form and deform it, propel it this way and that, is what ZwerdUng investigates. 494 30:4, Reviews To that purpose ZwerdUng examines the dominant forces in Woolf s familial and cultural past that attracted Woolf to be "like that"—that is, socially-minded and reformist in her deepest sympathies: Woolf's grandfather, he recaUs, had framed the law aboUshing slavery in the British Empire; Woolf's mother was a dedicated nurse and pubUshed Notes from Sick Rooms, to advise others seriously interested in that vocation. Woolf herself was at the height of her powers when she became an accomplished pamphleteer for pacifist and feminist concerns. ZwerdUng argues that Woolf's contribution to these causes was both substantive and tactical. Especially interesting is his claim that her forswearing of anger as a polemical emotion was prompted by political as much as Uterary considerations, a strategy devised in reaction to the debate over tactics that divided the "concessive" from the miUtant suffragists. Indeed, nothing is finer-toned than ZwerdUng's account of how an independent- and skepticallyminded woman of letters was a reformist as well as a satirist of the social order. "... a writer who teaches for several years at an evening college for working-class men and women, who marries a Fabian socialist and attends Labour Party conferences, who spends time working for the Adult Suffrage movement, who presides at meetings of the Women's Cooperative Guild held in her own house, and who writes significant tracts for...

What Veggies Are Best to Buy Organic?
By Suzanne Dixon, MPH, MS, RD
Diet books touting the benefit of everything from high protein to low fat can perplex even those who are dedicated to shedding excess pounds. New research suggests this confusion may result from differences in the way each person responds to a particular diet.
Nutrition experts have long suspected that people who carry excess body fat may not burn fat and calories as effectively after a meal as normal-weight individuals. This latest research provides evidence to support this notion and points the way toward helping the overweight and obese obtain a more effective post-meal fat and calorie burn.Burning fat
These findings come out of an Australian study of 18 adults who ranged from normal weight to obese. On three different visits, participants ate a meal and spent eight hours in an indirect calorimeter, which allowed researchers to measure total calories burned in response to eating and the portion of calories burned that came from fat.
The three test meals contained 14% of calories as protein (control), 33% of calories as protein, or 35% of calories as protein. Researchers examined how normal weight, overweight, and obese people responded to the different levels of protein in a meal.
For the control meal, the more overweight or obese a participant was, the fewer fat calories he or she burned in response to eating. However, when participants consumed either of the high-protein meals, the relationship between higher body fat and lower fat burning disappeared. After eating a high protein meal, overweight and obese participants burned fat in a manner more typical of a normal-weight person.
The researchers note that these differences in how obese and overweight people burn fat compared with normal weight individuals may explain why previous studies on this topic have shown conflicting results.Putting it into practice
Before jumping on the high-protein band wagon, remember this study is small, very short-term, and preliminary. Larger, longer-term studies are needed to confirm these results, but in the meantime, replacing some of the carbohydrate or fat in your meals and snacks with protein may improve your odds of fat-loss success.

While risky behavior is deemed dangerous, in business there is arguably no reward without risk. How an entrepreneur manages risks, takes risks and accounts for course correction can mean the difference between a successful business and the one that is doomed. The Animated Risk It PowerPoint Template gives risk themed animated slides to create presentations about "risk".
The template starts with an animation of risk related signboards showing up on screen with the title of the presentation. This is followed by various slides which show risk related content. This includes blocks spelling risk, SOS, and risky. Similarly, various slides provide sample text which you can change with your own. The template comes with illustrations made with PowerPoint shapes and revealed with animations.
You can create anything from infographics to animated timelines, diagrams and other types of content to discuss anything related to risk. This can not only be a business presentation but even a school presentation, a slide deck related to career coaching, teaching new drivers regarding road rules and driving ethics, etc.
The template has a generic layout, with risk being the central theme. In other words, you can create any type of presentation with this slide deck, with risk being a central theme. The animated slides load with the text that is in the textboxes.
You can replace sample text to use these animated slides for your presentation topic without the need to tweak anything. In case you do wish to make major amendments, you can edit the animated sequence from the Animations pane in the Animations tab.
Other than risk, you can also use this template for financial analysis, forecasts, brainstorming sessions, SWOT Analysis and other types of related topics.

3rd of June to 8th of June 2011
Deb and her family live in the suburb of Mandurah, about an hour train ride from Perth itself. I spent the first day with the family
at the estuary, and was welcomed to the area by a pod of dolphins that frequent the area, a good start if I say so myself.
Day 2 I headed into Perth and spent some time at the library before meeting some couchsurfers who were interested in heading up to Coral Bay in the next week. I was hoping to meet some folks who would want to do the trip in 2 days and rent a car or something. I had great potential with the kiwi girl who had a friend and wanted to go up for 4 days, meaning they could take the car back with them. Another girl, from Belgium, wanted to take her time going up and spend at least 3-4days on the road, which meant it would end up costing more than the Greyhound bus. We all exchanged numbers and went for lunch. That evening I heard from the kiwi saying her friend only wanted to go the
following weekend, so that option was out. I called Liezy, Belgium, and we decided to keep our ears and eyes open for others and try do the trip together, she had decided 2 days would be ok.
Monday was a public holiday so Deb and I went into Perth and spent the day wandering around and catching up. She is Scottish and I met her at the Ben Nevis hostel in 2000 when I was traveling in the area, we have stayed in contact since and have been able to meet up once since then. Its crazy how random meetings can mean lasting friendships.
While in Perth I made a few contacts with possible travel buddies but by the end of the day none of them had worked out. I called Liezy and we both decided if we had heard nothing by the next morning that we would most likely take the bus.
Tuesday I was supposed to head to Rottnest Island with some of the folks I had met at a hostel yesterday, but woke up with a killer
headache and decided to just hang around the house and catch up with my blog. Deb went to pick up her client, she works with disabled people, and then came back to pick me up. Her client for the day had decided he wanted to go to the beach and have coffee and it would be cool to have
someone new to go with. The beach was stunning and made me feel much better. I called a couple more people to see what was happening, but to no avail, it appeared the Greyhound was the way forward… for 15.5hrs, again I hate long bus rides. I also spoke with the girls who were going to Rottnest Island, turns out the cheap ticket was only available online, and when they showed up they were told it would cost $69, so they decided to spend the day in Fremantle. We headed that way for lunch and I met up with the girls as they explored op shops, 2nd hand stores. I managed to find a skirt for $1 that was brand new with a broken zip, a smart casual shirt, half price for $4 and a good book for $2 (my most exciting purchase).
When we got home around 5pm I went to book my ticket, I was told I had till 6pm to get the special $160 ticket, apparently they were in
Brisbane and that was 6pm east coast time, so my ticket ended up costing $191… ouch! I was set to leave at 7.35am in the morning, which meant I had to get up at 5.30am to catch the 6am train to Perth by 7am.
The bus ride
When I got to the train/bus station I had been told to go to over the phone, you would think I would have been suspicious considering they failed to mention the ticket price conditions, I discovered Greyhound had done it again and I was on the wrong side of town. I frantically tried to catch a cab, none available and rush hour. I called Liezy who was at the bus station, and asked if she could find someone who had a taxi number. I called and the taxi finally showed up 15min later giving me just 10min to get across town. The driver waS from Pakistan and we had a great talk about life and travel and such. He was very sweet and calmed me down. I arrived paid my $17 taxi fee (there goes food money for the day, glad Deb had given me stuff to eat) and ran to the bus arriving at precisely 7.35am. The bus hadn't even been loaded yet.
We met a very confused Japanese guy by the name of Kazuki, who had a ticket to Exmouth. He was told by the driver that that service had been cancelled a week ago and they would not be able to drop him off anywhere there. You could see the attempt to comprehend what they were telling him, but the fear to truly understand that he would not be able to get to his destination. We told him to come with us to Coral Bay, 2hrs from Exmouth, and that we would figure it out in the morning. I called the hostel to let them know we were coming and that we had picked up a stray.
The bus ride was very long and very tiring, but our drivers were amusing and Liezy and I had managed to get the very front seats. About 5hrs into the 15 Liezy was able to move to a free seat and we both got some shut eye. The 2 drivers took turns every 3 or so hours driving or napping in the back. They would have to do a total of almost 60hrs before arriving at their destination of Broome, get a few hours sleep and then turn around and do it again. Call me crazy but that
just sounds like they are pushing the limits.
At the outpost of Overlander, the turn off for Monkey Mia, we were treated to a beautiful sunset. We also met a guy named Jason, Aussie,
who was heading up the coast from Perth to try get work on the boats and get a direction in his life. Then the last 3 hrs were started. We were running 40min late so would only arrive in Coral Bay after 11.30pm. On this last section you had to be very careful of stray cows
and bouncing kangaroos. the kangaroos apparently don't have an iris and so are blinded in the headlights and have a nasty habit of jumping the
wrong way. We didn't see any cows, but on the last loop off the highway towards Coral Bay we found the mob of kangaroos and I merrily started counting them. It involved something like this:
I counted a total of 16 minus the one we hit making 15. The driver slowed down dimmed the lights but at the very last minute the roo jumped smack in front of the bus and there was nothing the driver could do without risking rolling the bus. Later when I got out I checked the front and there was no damage or sign that we had hit anything, the driver assured me being hit by a Greyhound killed them instantly… good to know.
I went into my room to discover it appeared full, but it was the guy on the bottom bunk who had all his stuff everywhere, he cleared it off and I attempted to climb into the top bunk, there was no ladder, and promptly fell asleep. Did I mention I hate long bus rides.

Online businesses are thriving and there has never been a better time to build or buy such a business. Many companies operate in an exclusive digital setup, lowering multiple costs with the freedom to conduct business on the move. Online businesses and websites are all the rage for investors who are looking to invest and grow innovative businesses. The reasons for putting up your online business for sale include,
- You are willing to invest in a new idea, post-sale of the current venture.
- Your business has incurred a loss and post-sale, you clear off your debts.
- Any other business situation.
While starting an online business is quite easy, the question is how to sell an online business? If done right, this could be one of your best opportunities to make the most of your online business.
Your Internet business could be a turnkey opportunity for individuals who are willing to embark on an entrepreneurial journey or those who are unsure about which business to start and sceptical about risks involved in setting up a business from scratch. Also, as a buyer, they will not have to figure out the business model, all by themselves, since the seller usually includes a training module about how everything runs.
Once you plan all the necessary arrangements for selling your online business. It's time to understand the process of proceeding with the sale.
1. Prep up for Sale: Evaluate Analytics data
Before preparing for sale, you need to assure your prospective buyers that they are investing in an asset and not a liability. To assure them, get your website tracked using tools like Google Analytics or similar tools like Clicky (real-time analytics), Piwik (detailed log of individual visitors) etc. And similarly to track your Social Media Marketing performance, use tools like ViralWoot (Twitter), Followerwonk (Pinterest), Quintly (Facebook) etc. This will help you provide statistics of traffic of your site and your social media performance to buyers.
2. Plan your selling platform & list your business
Look for ways where you can arrange to list your business for sale. If you know exactly whom to approach then proceed directly or carefully research appropriate channels – online or offline and list your business. There are many reputed online business marketplaces to list your business for sale. Among them, there is Tobuz – an online marketplace that functions like an ecosystem connecting buyers, sellers, brokers, consultants etc. to facilitate business exchanges comprising of businesses, commercial properties, other business services etc. While registering, list out all the details about your internet business, upload any authentication report or analytics report to inform potential buyers about your site's past performance etc. Fill in all the details and get your business listed. Once a buyer expresses interest in your business on Tobuz.com, you will get an alert.
3. Be clear on what you are offering
Once you list your business, especially if it is an online business – buyers will expect an SOP – a Standard Operating Procedure. It is basically a guide explaining your business – what it is, how it works, the way it generates revenue, and how it gets the traffic. It should include details such as – list of assets like domains and social network accounts you own, traffic data, and an operations manual. Having this information manual will make it easier for a buyer to understand and grow the business further. If a buyer can visualise the opportunity for further growth, the business has more potential value for sale.
4. Price estimation
Now that you have listed your business and are alerted of buyers, here comes the next step – fixing an estimated price for sale. In deciding the price, it is essential to estimate the right value of your business. For this, you can the seek the assistance of auditors or independent firms specialised in business valuation and consultation service, registered on Tobuz.com. This will serve as an essential third party reference while quoting the sale value for your business. Since this is an online business, you can also think of retaining certain part of your business and selling the rest to the buyer. Have your past financial statements, site traffic data & other important features of the business ready for audit purpose.
5. Finalise the deal
After scrutinising through offers, if necessary take assistance of financial advisors, accountants, legal consultants etc. listed on Tobuz.com to negotiate a valuable deal. Maintain transparency in the process so that both the parties are benefited from the deal. Finalise the deal and get your price paid. Handover your manuals and every piece of instruction, information etc. required to be given for smooth conduct of the business.
The value you get from the final deal can be put to use for investing in a new opportunity. Other reasons aside, if you are planning to start a new business, take the help of Tobuz, this time as a buyer. Starting a business from scratch is thrilling, but you can also skip considerable risk and expenses and simply buy an existing business or take a franchise of some brand available in your city.
Selling an online business is a long and complex process. Tobuz.com can help remove all the frictions involved in selling your online business, so you can focus on getting the maximum value from your efforts.

Co-products & By-Products: What they are and how to ensure accurate tracking & costing.
Co-product and by-product management is critical in food manufacturing and more specifically the meat industry. Regularly clients approach us seeking functionality to help them efficiently manage, track, and account for the costs of multiple outputs from a single production run. So a beef sub-primal would output various sizes of steaks (co-products) and various by-products: stew, trim, etc. Unfortunately, it is all too common that the ability to do this is lacking in many off the shelf ERP applications that are utilized by food manufacturers.
So what are co-product and by-products
A manufacturing process can yield several products, especially in the meat industry. These products are called co-products and by-products. But, what is what? Co-products are necessary secondary goods that are generated during the manufacturing process and can be sold or reused profitably. By-products are unavoidable residual outputs that are usually unusable and have to be disposed of at a cost. The tracking and costing of both, co-products and by-products, are critical to a food manufacturer.
Co-product and by-product recipe management
Ideally a meat processor will utilize an ERP system that offers a co-product and a by-product Bill of Material (BOM), where a single production run can have several desired or secondary outputs. Each of these outputs could be packaged into a separate finished good item or used in other production activities. Columbus' solution, Columbus Food, offers our clients the functionality and allows them to properly costing of the co and by-product items. For a finished good item, the production BOM number field maintains the packaging BOM number and Columbus's production grouping item field indicates the intermediate item used to produce this finished good item. Allowing for more accurate lot tracking and traceability; a critical need for meat producers.
Supply planning
Many ERP solutions can provide production planning and scheduling tools, however many meat processers need the ability to do supply-driven planning to reduce waste and spoilage and also avoid stock outs of desired items. Columbus works with clients to provide supply-driven planning worksheet to filter by location and define how far out they want to view supply and demand. The processor can see a list of process orders and then package orders planned. Finally, selecting create orders will create new production orders based on what has been set.
Production reporting
Consumption and output reporting is mandatory during and after the production process. ColumbusFood enables a full real-time consumption and output reporting. This includes integration to key equipment like scales and labelers on production lines. Columbus also offers a tool called batch reporting. This tool not only gives the processor a view of the previously posted production activity but also allows him to make additional entries.

Schools in Northern Ireland are experiencing a rise in pupil numbers for the ninth year in a row
Northern Ireland's schools have experienced a huge rise in pupil numbers.
According to the BBC, student numbers have risen by 3,000 over the last year.
The Department of Education statistics show that this is the ninth year in a row that the number has grown.
This comes not long after the announcement that Northern Irish schools are set to receive less funding for each pupil in 2018/19.
About 75% of a primary school's funding is dependent on its pupil numbers. Currently, each school gets a basic sum of £2,157 per pupil.
For post-primaries, it's around 83%, with each receiving around £3,450 per pupil for years 8-12 and £4,480 for sixth form students.
There are currently around 347,000 pupils in Northern Ireland's schools, with approximately 800 more pupils now in primary schools than this time year year.
The pupil number in post-primaries has risen by 1,700 since 2017. Pre-school and special school enrolments have also increased considerably.
The predominant reason for this all-round increase is a vast influx in children between the ages of four and 15.

Pernicious demons that use varied weaponry and cast magic.
In-game description
The Gremlin is an enemy from Vagrant Story. They can move fast and so the player should attack their wings with a Blunt weapon. They are strong against all elements but have a slight weakness to water and so casting Frost Fusion can be helpful.
Stats[edit | edit source]
Etymology[edit | edit source]
gremlin is an imaginary creature commonly depicted as mischievous and mechanically oriented, with a specific interest in aircraft. Gremlins' mischievous natures are similar to those of English folkloric imps. They became more well-known thanks to the famous 1984 film of the same name, which depicts gremlins as the main antagonists.A

Words Say So Much
So anyway, I look up a lot of words. I think it's entertaining to look back at them, to see at what kind of story they hint. Here are some recent ones:
And then there are Google topic searches:
upright pianos
medical conditions
occupational therapy
trial separation
Sort of cryptic, don't you think? Can you tell by these words and terms that I write women's fiction? I wouldn't think so, and that fascinates me.
What kind of story would you create out of the above?

I think those words would go nicely in a financial thriller. :)
- January 7, 2011 at 11:56 AM
- Tess said...
yes, I agree w/ Susan... stogie, humidor, attorney, accounting...
sounds like a Grisham novel.
- January 7, 2011 at 11:59 AM
- April Plummer said...
I don't have anything to add to the above comments, but I do agree it's quite amusing to look at those things, especially for me the Google searches, while I'm writing. What in the world did writers do without Google?
- January 7, 2011 at 12:22 PM
- Joanne said...
I love researching, even word meanings. It has such a way of layering the story when we bring that research somehow to the page.
- January 7, 2011 at 12:24 PM
- Rhonda Schrock said...
Oooo, I just love words! Thesaurus.com is one of my favorite resources.
Your list could make a riveting tale of love gone bad, a tragic accident, and the dark side of human nature mixed with an arrogant, pipe-smoking lawyer. John Grisham, be afraid. Be veerrry afraid!
- January 7, 2011 at 12:58 PM
- Jeanette Levellie said...
Ooooh, I love the word "obtuse!!!" It's one of my favorite to use when my husband makes sense to himself, but not to me: "Quit being so obtuse," I sigh.
I love that you love words.
- January 7, 2011 at 2:05 PM
- Karen said...
HA! I would have to write a comedy, or slapstick. An upright piano and a CPA? chuckle.....

The stogie gave it away for women's fiction! :D
Happy weekend.

that's a very interesting exercise. I've never though to do that. What intriguing words and topics you've looked up.
- January 7, 2011 at 3:37 PM
- Lynda R Young as Elle Cardy said...
Sounds like a thriller to me. I love words and making sure of their true meaning is so important.
- January 7, 2011 at 4:49 PM
I can't think of a story off the top of my head, but I'm intrigued with how you keep Dictionary.com open as you write. It's amazing the resources available to us through the Internet!! As April says, what would we do without Google? Or Wikipedia, I might add. I love especially to read about people I "knew" as I grew up who are gone.
Words, words, words. They're awesome.
- January 7, 2011 at 8:31 PM
- Mary@GigglesandGuns said...
Those words say mystery/thriller to me.
- January 7, 2011 at 8:33 PM
- Robyn Campbell said...
These words definitely do NOT go with what you write. Though the more I think about them, I guess they could. But I agree with Tess and Susan. Most assuredly sounds like a Grisham novel.
Great post, woman! :) My laptop isn't connected to the internet when I'm writing. *sigh*

A couple was having passionate monkey sex on top of an upright player piano (one of them was committing adultery) with a Gershwin show tune playing, when tragedy struck. The piano suddenly collasped and the man was seriously injured. With her lover now in a coma, the woman paralegal must face the legal consequences of they're carnal actions inside one of the most prestigious CPA firms in Chicago.
How's that?
- January 8, 2011 at 11:40 AM
- Deb Shucka said...
I was thinking a great mystery could be woven around those words. I love searching for just the right word just as much as I love being tickled by the perfect word choice when I'm reading.
- January 8, 2011 at 12:34 PM
- Tabitha Bird said...
Very interesting. Actually the words 'trial separation' did make me think of women's fiction.

Research is such a great friend to the writer. I think a love triangle in Wall Street would be interesting.

- Patti Lacy said...
Janna, Wow.
You never know what you'll find here!
Sometimes I love researching for just the right word, and other times, I'm steamed because even with all the tools, I just can't find THE RIGHT WORD!!
Blessings, dear one.
- January 9, 2011 at 7:33 PM
- Erin MacPherson said...
Oh my goodness... so cryptic. But fascinating. I almost have to say that if I picked up a book that just had that word list on the back, I'd be intrigued enough to buy it just to figure out how they all related.
- January 10, 2011 at 3:46 PM
- Kara said...
I love everyones take on these words. This would be a wonderful writing exercise with a creative writing class. Everyone could share their lists and have others write a story. Fun! Thanks for sharing;)

Not at all but woman have all kinds of things that happen to them too:)

You guys have great ideas! Love the thoughts here.
And I'm so glad these words drew everyone in. This is good!
Don... I think I'll let you write that one. ;)

Oh cool, but I was totally getting medical suspense from those words. Love it!
- January 11, 2011 at 3:45 PM
- Karen Lange said...
Oh wow, what a great prompt this would make! We can weave stories out of most anything, and that's just part of the fun of being a writer. :)
P.S. Have a little something for you over on my blog.

Hi Janna -
I can see a murder mystery developing. :)

When I'm writing fiction I keep my Flip Dictionary less than an arm's reach away. It's not really a dictionary and not really a thesaurus, it's a combination in a way. If you're looking for a cool reference tool, look it up on Amazon. :)

I agree about the Grisham novel! I was thinking it sounded like a twist on The Firm.

Charity Golf Day

CLEVELAND -- Cleveland police officers on Tuesday were searching an area on the city's west side after getting a tip on the case of a missing mentally disabled woman, who has not been seen in almost six years.
Police say canine officers went to the 1400 block of West 112th Street in connection to Christina Kleckner's disappearance. No evidence or remains were found during the search, officials said.
Kleckner is currently 30 years old. She was last seen at her home on the west side back in October of 2011, before she went to bed.
"I was hopeful that this nightmare has come to an end and then I found out that nothing was found, so I'm still in the nightmare phase, you know, but yeah, it gives me hope that someone is still looking for her," said her mother.
Her parents, Albert and Sandy, told Fox 8 previously that they were worried about their daughter's health because she is mentally handicapped and suffers from bipolar disorder.
"She can't read. She can't write," Albert Kleckner said. "She knows some (denomination) of money. She don't even know how to get change when she buys something. I don't know what she could do to herself or somebody else, being she's not taking her medicine."
When Kleckner was last seen, she was 5'7", between 180-200 lbs., with brown hair and blue eyes. Police say she has scars on her left ankle from a dog bite.
Anyone with information on this case is asked to contact Cleveland Police Second District investigators at (216) 623-5218.

Genesis 32:22-32 (NRSV)
The same night he got up and took his two wives, his two maids, and his eleven children, and crossed the ford of the Jabbok. He took them and sent them across the stream, and likewise everything that he had. Jacob was left alone; and a man wrestled with him until daybreak. When the man saw that he did not prevail against Jacob, he struck him on the hip socket; and Jacob's hip was put out of joint as he wrestled with him. Then he said, 'Let me go, for the day is breaking.' But Jacob said, 'I will not let you go, unless you bless me.' So he said to him, 'What is your name?' And he said, 'Jacob.' Then the man said, 'You shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel,* for you have striven with God and with humans, and have prevailed.' Then Jacob asked him, 'Please tell me your name.' But he said, 'Why is it that you ask my name?' And there he blessed him. So Jacob called the place Peniel,* saying, 'For I have seen God face to face, and yet my life is preserved.' The sun rose upon him as he passed Penuel, limping because of his hip. Therefore to this day the Israelites do not eat the thigh muscle that is on the hip socket, because he struck Jacob on the hip socket at the thigh muscle.
This is probably my favorite passage involving one of the patriarchs. In this section of Genesis, Jacob is fleeing/leaving the company of his father-in-law Laban, but also coming closer to his brother Esau. Despite Esau's own less-than-sharp thinking under pressure, Jacob has every reason to worried about encountering Esau after many years.
So Jacob send his wives, children and maidservants across the river and tries to sleep. In that sleep, he wrestles with an angel, who may well be Y*HW*H. In this wrestling, Jacob forces a blessing and carries the mark of that wrestling for the rest of his life. It even affects generations that come after him.
This passages gives me hope because, first, no matter how big a scoundrel we are... God still finds us and pulls us into a relationship. Whether we are active in that wrestling or passive, God is there- longing for us to wrest out the blessing He desires to give. And the blessing we receive through our encounter with God can have a profound affect on our lives and on all those around us.
The grace and glory of a Living God is that encounters are possible, yea, PROBABLE- each and every day. In our travels, our work and even our dreams, God comes to us, calling us and wrestling us in relationship with Him. God's grace, in its entirety, will pen you to the mat- but you won't limp away without a blessing.

Evolution of the L1 halo family in the radial solar sail CRTBP
Verrier, Patricia and Waters, Thomas and Sieber, Jan (2014) Evolution of the L1 halo family in the radial solar sail CRTBP. Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy, 120 (4). pp. 373-400. ISSN 0923-2958

We present a detailed investigation of the dramatic changes that occur in the L1 halo family when radiation pressure is introduced into the Sun-Earth circular restricted three-body problem (CRTBP). This photo-gravitational CRTBP can be used to model the motion of a solar sail orientated perpendicular to the Sun-line. The problem is then parameterized by the sail lightness number, the ratio of solar radiation pressure acceleration to solar gravitational acceleration. Using boundary-value problem numerical continuation methods and the AUTO software package (Doedel et al. 1991) the families can be fully mapped out as the parameter ß is increased. Interestingly, the emergence of a branch point in the retrograde satellite family around the Earth at ß ~ 0:0387 acts to split the halo family into two new families. As radiation pressure is further increased one of these new families subsequently merges with another non-planar family at ß ~ 0:289, resulting in a third new family. The linear stability of the families changes rapidly at low values of ß, with several small regions of neutral stability appearing and disappearing. By using existing methods within AUTO to continue branch points and period-doubling bifurcations, and deriving a new boundary-value problem formulation to continue the folds and Krein collisions, we track bifurcations and changes in the linear stability of the families in the parameter ß and provide a comprehensive overview of the halo family in the presence of radiation pressure. The results demonstrate that even at small values of ß there is significant difference to the classical CRTBP, providing opportunity for novel solar sail trajectories. Further, we also find that the branch points between families in the solar sail CRTBP provide a simple means of generating certain families in the classical case.

New Rules for Outside Speakers I
Posted by David Dudley Field '25 under Administration, UL at 7:36 am
Here (doc) are the new rules for outside speakers/performers. (Can anyone confirm that these are the actual rules? Are they posted someone on the Williams website? These were sent by a source.) It seems obvious that these rules were created in response to the controversies surrounding Uncomfortable Learnings, especially John Derbyshire. Let's spend 3 days discussing them. Today is Day 1.
To host an outside speaker or performer's appearance and reserve a space for your event on campus, you must be one of the following:
A student representing an officially registered, College Council-recognized student organization (OSL RSO) Click here for more information on the registration process.
A student representing an organization that is part of the Minority Coalition (MinCo) or is advised by the Davis Center (DC RSO). Click here for information regarding DC RSO's.
A faculty member.
1) This is a reasonable rule! I don't particularly like it that faculty members have more rights than students, but such a distinction is not crazy.
2) I have never really understood why the students in charge of UL have never registered. They derive no meaningful advantage from not doing so. They just hand their opponents a handy cudgel to beat them with. They now have to register, which is almost costless and probably a good idea.
3) I hate it that there is one rule for most students (get registered with College Council) and another rule — separate but equal! — for students associated with Min Co. Why do this? Why separate Ephs according to the color of their skin or their political rules?
4) If UL is smart and/or trouble-making, that ought to go to the Davis Center and register as a part of the "Williams Activist Coalition." Imagine the (hilarious!) stink they could make if Ferentz Lafargue tried to prevent them from joining the coalition! I bet that the paperwork here is much less onerous than the College Council paperwork.Print • Email

Interesting that another UL talk was allowed to occur:
Apparently National Review is still an allowed organization to have on campus.

As Robert Lindsay notes in his autobiography Letting Go, by the late 1980s, things weren't looking so well for his career: following an difficult stint in the USA, where he had worked on the film Bert Rigby, You're a Fool (1989), the actor who was known for roles such as Wolfie Smith in Citizen Smith (BBC1, 1977-1980) and had enjoyed success both in the West End and on Broadway, returned to Britain with little of that most crucial commodity a performer needs for their craft: self-confidence. As he put it: 'I was shattered; my self-esteem had completely gone. […] I was completely lost from a career point of view; I was thinking of giving the whole thing up.' (Lindsay 2009, 205-6) Then came the opportunity to play a character named Michael Murray in G.B.H. (Channel 4, 1991), a part written by Alan Bleasdale with Lindsay in mind. With Murray a corrupt, haunted, twitching, loathsome and tragic city council leader, located within a script with surreal overtones, this was certainly a challenging part for any actor to take on, never mind one who had lost faith in his ability to act – and Lindsay went on to produce a memorable small screen performance that deserved the BAFTA he won for best actor, and still deserves, if not demands, some detailed critical attention that looks at how he engaged with this acting challenge.
Given the richness of Lindsay's performance, we will focus our attention on one short moment towards the end of episode 4 ('Message sent'), which readers located in the UK can enjoy in full here. Under increasing professional and personal pressure, stressed Michael Murray leaves the hotel lobby where a Doctor Who convention is taking place. This is perhaps the most commonly remembered scene from G.B.H, because of Alan Bleasdale's in-joke for Verity Lambert, and can also be watched here:
Having secured condoms and ordered champagne, Murray makes his way upstairs to spend the night with love interest Barbara Douglas (Lindsay Duncan). At just over an hour into the episode (to be precise, 1.00.25 on 4OD, 1.01.25 on the DVD), the moment that fascinates us takes place when he walks through the hotel corridor and arrives at Barbara's room. Here, in the space of one extraordinary minute and one uninterrupted take, Murray's physical twitch, which originated as a wink and was already getting in his way during the Dalek scene, interrupts his attempt to knock on the door. To steady his nerves, he backtracks to take a run-up to the door, trying to talk himself back into the (albeit faux) confident swagger with which he first arrived. There are many, many performance choices by Lindsay worth paying attention to here, as he verbalises and involuntarily physicalises his interior monologue and turmoil, calling up subtle intertextual references to John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever (1977) and Fonzie from Happy Days (ABC, 1974-1984), interweaving performative elements of football, dance and musical theatre, and working both with and beyond the script in what Alan Bleasdale in the 'Interview' DVD extra calls a 'moment of lunatic improvisation'.
One of the subtle intertextual references called up by Robert Lindsay's acting
For the purposes of space, we will for now focus on the perhaps most widely remembered aspect of Robert Lindsay's performance as Michael Murray, the twitch. The following screen shots give a flavour of this:
In Letting Go, Lindsay notes that while the twitch had been written into the script by Bleasdale, the production team was concerned that this tic was not rooted in any reality, and that he, Lindsay, had 'to make it as real as possible' (2009, 207).[i] So, how does he approach this task here in this scene? Firstly, Lindsay begins the scene evidently having prepared himself physically for it, perhaps bearing in mind Stanislavski's advice that, '[i]f [the] preparatory work is right, the results will take care of themselves' (1989, 212). Following the Stanislavskian emphasis on getting into character, he both taps into the nervous energy that can naturally occur in performers before shooting and has, through some physical exercise before the take, built up a slight sweat and near-hyperventilation. Out of breath and perspiring, this preparation allows him to enter the scene at the right – in this case, edgy – energy and performance level, where the would-be confidence of his initial approach readily gives way to the anxiety the character was feeling in the previous scene.
When Murray's attempts to knock on the door are prevented by his left arm spasming upwards, Lindsay manages to convey Murray's loss of control over his own body through careful acting that brings together this twitch with a whole host of other small actions, or outer characteristics – such as deep breaths out, talking to himself, whistling, stretching the arm downwards as though trying to ease a cramp – into an organic sequence where these different actions trigger one another as he attempts to calm himself down whilst still at the door. Lindsay further makes the twitch and these other actions look integrated into the character because he (mostly) looks like he is genuinely in the moment, surprised and appalled by and apparently unable to predict what this 'demon hand' of his is doing.
Because of this organic quality of the performance, it may seem tempting to think of Robert Lindsay's acting here as further drawing on the Stanislavskian approach where 'in each physical act there is an inner psychological motive which impels physical action' (Stanislavski 1968, 11), and one's character is found through psychological and emotional engagement. However, we wish to propose that this is actually a very technical performance here, where the portrayal of the loss of control requires such careful control, such precision (of timing, of movement, of physical distance to the door) and involves such business (with repeated near-knocks and attempts at calming down, there are many outer characteristics for Lindsay to manage in a very short time), that the Stanislavskian mode would not be entirely appropriate. A Stanislasvkian approach to acting proposes that 'it is a necessary condition of the unfettered operation of the subconscious that conscious awareness be actively supressed during the creative act' (Mitter 1999, 16). Or put another way, as long as you are in the moment, the details of the acting, the outer characteristics, will take care of themselves, and the performance will just happen. However, the demands of the role here are such that Robert Lindsay is employing a technically precise imaginative performance, whereby he makes his actions look real, organic and happening against his will and appears to be genuinely in the moment, through external means, thinking and planning. His autobiography confirms this careful planning through his reference to working closely with the continuity girl. (See Lindsay 2009, 207.) This resonates with Chekov's approach to acting, where '[t]he task of the actor is to become an active participant in the process of imagination, [bringing] the world of the imagination on to the stage' (Chamberlain 2010, 69).
That Lindsay is indeed thinking about what he is doing, has carefully planned it and is not improvising spontaneously is confirmed firstly by his account of how 'there's always this 'stuff' that I put in' (2009, 177) for his roles. It is further shown by a slip in his performance with the final near-knock as well as the eventual actual knock at the end of the scene, when his twitch has him bang the door open: in these two instants, his response to the twitch pre-empts the movement of his arm by a fraction. With his actions for the scene evidently planned out and choreographed, he is visibly not genuinely in the moment (and in the first instant very likely to be thinking about the imminent demands of the rest of the scene). Of course, what these tiny slips vividly demonstrate is the overall acting skill of Lindsay and how much he manages to make himself look like he is in the moment, when actually he is not.
A brief moment where the loss of control is visibly controlled
In order to be able to tackle a role and performance so technical, intricate and demanding, RADA-trained Robert Lindsay uses a rich approach to acting that draws on Stanislasvkian and Chekovian approaches, employing physicality and imagination, a high degree of ability, control and thinking through, underpinned by careful rehearsal. Tise Vahimagi in Screenonline rightly praises Lindsay's work in G.B.H., noting that: 'He played with all the stops out, creating an extraordinary, unrealistic, chimerical figure as Michael Murray; prancing, twitching, anarchic and unrepressed.' Interestingly, there is a divergence in point of view between the practitioner's explicit intention to 'make it as real as possible' and the scholar's reading of the performance as 'unrealistic'. We share Vahimagi's view that G.B.H. 'may well have been Lindsay at his television finest', but find some of his terminology ill-chosen, for Linday's Michael Murray strikes us as far from 'unrepressed' or indeed 'unrealistic': while Lindsay is unrepressed in the sense that he fully commits to the role (which could not have been successfully realized with anything less than that), his acting invests into creating a character who represses both his memory and physicality. More importantly, he does manage to root the outer characteristics in a believable sense of character, taking realism and naturalism up to the line where they border on something else, but without going beyond that point. (Even with the character on the edge of a nervous breakdown, such as Murray, if the actor took it much further than Lindsay does, it would go too far.) The term 'heightened naturalism' to us would capture the tone and texture of Lindsay's performance better.
The courage that a role such as Michael Murray demands of an actor is considerable. That it was taken on by an actor who had lost confidence is remarkable: consider the bravery that it takes to do a scene such as this – alone in front of camera and crew, in a small space and in one take, to attempt something so complicated and judge how far to take it – this scene is about acting. The loss of control, performance anxiety and self-consciousness of the character are performed with aplomb by an actor in control of the material, and as committed as he is un-self-conscious; producing fine acting by a performer who knows he is delivering strong work, which only adds to our enjoyment of the scene. Robert Lindsay puts the cathartic importance of Michael Murray to his career as follows: 'But GBH gave me that self-esteem back – it proved to me that I could still act.' (2009, 205) Indeed, he could.
Gary Cassidy is currently undertaking AHRC-funded doctoral research at the University of Reading. His thesis explores the rehearsal process of playwright Anthony Neilson, using filmed footage of rehearsals and interviews. He trained as an actor at the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama and has thirteen years of acting experience – Equity name Cas Harkins – covering film, theatre, television and radio. Plans for future research focus on using his research methodology to explore the working processes of other contemporary theatre practitioners.

[i] This was an especially interesting challenge for an actor who, because of his ''big face' and 'big eyes'' (Lindsay 2009, 139), has had to 'work hard at being less expressive in front of the camera.' (ibid.).
