Son, who is decorating his bedroom, just phoned. From Hubby's end of the conversation I gathered that whilst putting the radiator back on he broke the pipe and they now have water gushing out, on to their new carpet and down into their sitting-room. There was much, ' I had warned you about using equal pressure ', ' find the feed for the central heating system, shut it off and then drain the system '. I remember Hubby doing exactly the same thing years ago but luckily it was in a bedroom over the garage so we didn't have to worry about any rooms underneath, so he's been there, dealt with that. He came off the phone and I fully expected him to high-tail it over to Son's, but he didn't. I said why wasn't he going over there and he said than Son hadn't asked him to. Men, they are so poor at reading sub-texts. I said he should go over there, he responded that he hadn't been asked. I said that he should have offered, he said son would have asked. Now, if this had been one of the girls having a problem I had some knowledge about, I would have offered, and if I hadn't she would have asked. I don't think they are any less independent or able than their brother, they are sensible and appreciate that sometimes tasks are easier if shared. Men, oh no, they are so pig-headed that they won't ask and so empathetically retarded that they can't identify a cry for help.

Quite right!
I'm probably just as bad I'm sorry to say!
Ah good, it's safe to look at your blog again now the nasty pictures have been scrolled down the page by later posts. Phew.
Anyway, this is quite clearly a "bloke thing". Son would have said "Dad, I've broken the radiator and water is gushing out everywhere come over now and save me". However, this would have been a bit of a loss of face since it was bad enough to have broken the pipe in the first place and be unable to fix it without being forced to phone for advice (a major downward regrading of the Alpha male status). If Mr MWM (the elder) had said "I'm coming over to help you sort it" this would have been as bad as admitting "Dad help me, I am a big girl's blouse and have peanuts for testicles". So the only correct result is for son to ask for advice and father to proffer it without either having to go for the full emasculation of "get dad to fix it because I should wear pigtails and a gingham dress".
It's simple really, why can't women understand?

Everyone – Hubby has now gone over there. This is a result of much lecturing from me and a follow-up phonecall from son, which I intercepted, and informed said off-spring that his Father would be attending as I was worrying about their wallpaper.
Glowstars – It takes a woman to understand the issue!
Flighty – I do believe that 'punctuation' is probably right and it's all down to pride.
Punctuation – What a trial it must be to have testicles, they really do seem to get in the way of everything, except making excuses for other males! Ohh, that was a bit below the belt. Tee hee.
P.S More nasty pictures later on this week.
Mmmmmm. Yes I would have expected him to go over too. BTW I am at http://www.20six.co.uk/mumof4 too. Got tired of it being so slow and unavailable which is why I went to Vox too (and I can finally post photos) but it is a pain for people to have to register to comment.
How are you feeling by the way?

Mumof4 – Thanks for solving my confusion! That's why I gave up on 20six, the unreliability. I've got a page on Vox, purely 'cos I had to register to comment on Minks blog, hardly use it though as I like the uncluttered, almost idiot proof system here. I'm recovering, scar healing well, but area still bruised and swollen. Finding the no driving, no lifting a pain though, I shall go stir crazy.

Wow! Great post…and SOOOO true!! 🙂 Why is it that men are so oblivious sometimes?? 🙂 Take care!

missfeebee – Personally I think that men are deliberately oblivious to anything that doesn't leap up and shout in their faces. It's really a very clever 'get-out'!
Oops, I think our cunning male plan has been rumbled lads.

Flash Banner Ad
View More Projects:
We decided to create a Flash based animation sequence that we figured we could eventually use in a website banner down the road. One of the things we found, is that sometimes it's harder to create something for yourself than it is for someone else. It took us a couple weeks before we even came to a consensus on the final storyboard concept. Once we did, though, the project flowed pretty smoothly.
It was our first try at animating moving reflections and were, in the end, pretty happy with the results.

OZ's "Dominator" video can be viewed below. The song was recorded at Park studio in Stockholm, Sweden with producer Nicke Andersson (a former member of ENTOMBED and HELLACOPTERS). The clip was directed by Amir Chamdin, a member of the Swedish hip hop band INFINITE MASS who has previously directed videos for THE CARDIGANS and HELLACOPTERS, among others.
OZ's current lineup includes the classic trio of Ape De Martini (real name: Tapani Hämäläinen), Jay C. Blade (real name: Jukka Lewis) and Mark Ruffneck (real name: Pekka Mark).
OZ is best known in the metal underground for its 1983 "Fire In The Brain" album and the classic "Turn The Cross Upside Down" single (a song that was subsequently covered by the band STORMWARRIOR). It has also come to light that BATHORY mastermind Quorthon was responsible for designing the cover art for both "Fire In The Brain" and "Turn The Cross Upside Down".

ARAUJO, Mirelia Rodrigues de; DESMOULIERE, Sylvain Jean Marie e LEVINO, Antônio. Spatial pattern of the distribution of dengue incidence and its relation to variable income in the City of Manaus, Amazonas State, Brazil. Rev Pan-Amaz Saude [online]. 2014, vol.5, n.2, pp.11-20. ISSN 2176-6215.
The infection caused by Dengue virus is one of the main public health problems in the world, including Brazil, which is geographically located in a tropical area recognized as prevalent area of disease incidence. Besides the location of the region, there are many other conditioning and determining factors for this infection, as socioeconomic aspects and microclimate local variations. This study aimed to describe the distribution of incidence rates of dengue and the socioeconomic variable (per capita income), comprising urban neighborhoods of the City of Manaus, Amazonas State, from 2000 to 2010. It was used Quantum GIS software in the production of thematic maps in order to describe the distribution of variables investigated in the process and Terraview, version 4.2.1, to calculate the empirical Bayesian estimator. By comparing the maps with the incidence of income, it was not possible to verify proportional relationship; neighborhoods with greater than three minimum wages and even higher or equal to five have reported varied incidence rates as much as in the lowest-income neighborhoods; the same result was found when comparing the fees generated by the empirical Bayesian estimator. It was concluded that the distribution of dengue incidence in the urban area of Manaus occurred heterogeneously and without influence of per capita income; and the resulting rates from the estimator are more reliable concerning influential factors such as random fluctuation of data.

Subject: Proglycem/diazoxide source needed -- PLEASE HELP
Hi Sukie. I use the commercial Proglycem (diaxozide) made by Baker
Morton. It is chocolate/mint flavor (our ferts like it!) and comes pre-
mixed 50 mg/ml in a 30 ml bottle (a *much* better deal than having it
mixed by the pharmacist). Anyway, Goods Drugs sells it for around
$95 per bottle plus $3.50 shipping. They're in Texas and the shipment
took five days to get to Seattle, but you can ask them to ship it priority
(shouldn't cost more) and that should cut the time to three or four days.
Fed-ex or UPS, whichever they use, is a bit pricey, around $15. The
commercial Proglycem is well preserved so is fine in transit. Also, I've
called the company and talked with my vet and been assured the
preservatives shouldn't harm ferrets nor should the small amount of
alcohol in it (it's used with babies). My pharmacist tech in Seattle
(she's great; she goes to vet conferences!) couldn't beat the diaxozide
price by a long shot though she tried, but their wholesale price is $120.
Goods sells it much less than I've seen it elsewhere.

Transport officials from Iraq, Egypt and Jordan recently held talks with a view to improving cooperation.
Jordan's Petra news agency reports that the talks were held on the sidelines of the meetings of the General Assembly of the Arab Bridge Maritime Company, held recently in Cairo.
Among the items discussed were a proposed railway network between the countries and how it should be funded. The talks also touched on the issue of Jordanian trucks being delayed at the Iraqi border.

Despite hours of testimony Tuesday, no one from the Murphy administration has yet to take responsibility for allowing a former high-level official get and keep a job for months, even after becoming aware that he had been accused of sexual assault.
A select committee of the Legislature is reviewing allegations by a former Murphy campaign volunteer who says she was raped by a colleague and then, later, informed several administration officials of the issue. But the man, Al Alvarez, was still hired as chief of staff of the Schools Development Authority, and allowed to keep his job for months despite being told by members of the governor's staff to leave.
During a seven-hour session, the committee heard from several officials who said they knew of the issue but for one reason or another, they didn't believe it was their job to make sure the man left his post. Staffers have testified that they shielded the governor from knowledge of the issue, despite the fact that the woman, Katie Brennan, contacted Murphy and his wife Tammy saying she wanted to talk about a sensitive matter.
Murphy's deputy chief counsel, an attorney who represented the 2017 campaign, and the official who led the governor's transition were among those who testified. But lawmakers seem no closer to finding out who exactly signed off on the hiring of Alvarez even after the transition team was notified someone had accused him of committing a sexual assault.
Rumors had been swirling for weeks
"Nobody seems to have responsibility for anything," said co-chairwoman Loretta Weinberg (D-Bergen) at one point during yesterday's hearing, echoing a theme that came up throughout the day.
Jose Lozano, who served as executive director of the Murphy transition, told the lawmakers that it was not his responsibility to approve a hiring at that level even though last month Murphy chief of staff Peter Cammarano had suggested it was Lozano's responsibility after fielding a similar question during his own appearance before the committee. Earlier testimony had revealed that both Lozano and Cammarano, who also served during the transition, had been notified about accusations against Alvarez but did not block his hiring.
While rumors had been swirling for weeks in Trenton about a brewing scandal, Brennan's allegations against Alvarez finally became public in a Wall Street Journal story published in early October. In it, Brennan, who now serves as the chief of staff at the state Housing and Mortgage Finance Agency, said Alvarez drove her home and raped her following a gathering of campaign staffers and volunteers in April 2017 in Jersey City.
Alvarez went on to become the deputy director of personnel in the Murphy transition even as he was reportedly being investigated by the Hudson County Prosecutor's Office. Alvarez was never charged and has strongly denied the allegations through an attorney. But he stepped down in early October 2018 after the Wall Street Journal contacted him for comment on Brennan's allegations. Brennan has since filed suit against Alvarez, the state and the Murphy campaign.
Before going to the newspaper, Brennan, who testified before the committee last month, said numerous high-level officials were notified about her allegations against Alvarez as early as the transition period. But at that point she did not want to attach her name to the allegations and instead allowed a friend who was working for the transition to share limited information with top officials.
Looking into the matter…
Lozano was not informed directly of the allegations against Alvarez, he told lawmakers yesterday, but was instead notified by Cammarano and transition attorney Raj Parikh, who said he was looking into the matter. Lawmakers pressed Lozano to explain how Alvarez continued in his role with the transition and then ascended to the position at the SDA despite the allegations made against him. In his response, Lozano explained that an accuser had not come forward publicly at the time and that transition officials had also been made aware that no criminal charges were being filed against Alvarez.
"This is the first time I've ever been in a position where an accusation is brought forward, but without an accuser," Lozano said.
He also suggested it was Cammarano and Matt Platkin, who is now the governor's chief counsel, who could give the final sign-off on a hire for the transition. That drew a quick response from vice-chair Nancy Munoz (R-Union).
"Again, we're in these silos where everybody knows this information, but nobody goes to the next step," she said.
Michael Critchley, an attorney for the committee, highlighted a similar concern when questioning Jonathan Berkon, who served as an attorney for Murphy's campaign. It was Platkin and Berkon who were forwarded an email about a "sensitive matter" that Brennan sent directly to Murphy and First Lady Tammy Murphy in June. The governor offered her only a brief response, and several days later Berkon responded to Brennan and told her Alvarez was in the process of leaving his government job.
Yesterday Berkon told the lawmakers he contacted Brennan initially because he and Platkin determined Brennan's allegations — which Platkin already knew about — seemed to be a campaign matter. But when lawmakers pressed Berkon to explain why he didn't give Brennan more details about the handling of Alvarez, Berkon suggested that was a responsibility of the administration. Berkon also sidestepped a question from Critchley about whether Murphy himself had a "legitimate need to know" about the allegations; the governor apparently only learned about them in October as the news was about to break publicly.
Critchley: 'Everybody points someplace else'
"See, that's the problem we have. Every time we ask a pointed question, they do this," Critchley said. "Everybody points someplace else, 'Don't talk to me, talk to the campaign, don't talk to me, talk to the state, don't talk to me, talk to the administration.'"
Lawmakers have yet to hear directly from Platkin, although he is expected to testify before the committee in the coming days in what is expected to be one of the most closely watched hearings of the investigation. The committee's stated purpose is to determine whether any employment policies should be revised in the wake of Brennan's revelations.
One issue that lawmakers will likely delve into more closely is how Platkin — who recused himself from any investigation early on since he knows both Brennan and Alvarez — still held discussions about Alvarez's employment with Berkon after the email was sent by Brennan to Murphy. So far, the scope and duration of Platkin's recusal has yet to be reviewed in detail by the committee.
The committee was hoping to hear the Alvarez side of the story but members have said he has declined to appear. Yesterday, they learned for the first time Alvarez's apparent side of the story. In October, after he was contacted by a Wall Street Journal reporter, he told current SDA chief executive Lizette Delgado Polanco in October he had a relationship with a married woman who was now publicly accusing him of rape. He resigned on the same day, Polanco said.
"I couldn't believe what was coming out of his mouth," Polanco said.
She also addressed lawmakers' questions about whether she should have been told before accepting the top job at the SDA that the agency's chief of staff had been accused of rape. Instead, she was only told he was in the process of leaving his position.
"Could I have used a heads up? Absolutely. Did I feel disappointed? Absolutely. But I can't change what they did," she said.
The committee will reconvene tomorrow with Cammarano scheduled to appear again, and possibly other administration attorneys.

It's WAPL's 11th Birthday this week!
This week, we celebrate 11 years of Western Australia's first Poker League, WAPL!
It's been a fun ride so far, with its ups and downs, many players and prizes joining us along the way, and more bad beat stories than we could ever have a chance of remembering :)
We'd like to thank all our members, past and current, for helping us shape the league over the years. We're really happy with where we're at, with a great range of games for players from brand new learners to hardened veterans of the game.
Our tournaments are second to none in fun and payouts for what you pay to play, and our cash tables are professional, fair, and respectful.
We welcome you down this week to help us celebrate at the Woodvale Tavern on Thursday night from 6pm. There will be some extra special prizes, some goodies we've picked up over the years, which we are sure will make worthy trophies for your poker collection!
Spread the word, and we look forward to hosting you for another fun night with WAPL as usual!
Thanks again for your support!
Your WAPL Team

FlexiFit technology by Fisher & Paykel is a special innovation which allows for an auto-contouring fit. Experts at the company have used an anthropomorphic database containing thousands of different facial structures and facial lines in order to create CPAP masks that fit comfortably with just one single "snap".
FlexiFit 432 is a second generation CPAP full face mask by Fisher & Paykel Healthcare which is meant to take comfort and therapy compliance to the next level. The brand new, innovative Soft Foam Cushion combines in the most natural way with the Silicone Seal with contours in order to deliver the best mask seal.
When shopping for full face CPAP masks, it is extremely important to look for the following:
FlexiFit 432 Performance Chart
FlexiFit Technology - a unique, auto contouring technology that will bring patients CPAP therapy compliance from day one. Thanks to this innovative technology, the FlexiFit 432 will automatically adjust to a wide variety of nasal and facial structures. This fact makes it extremely easy for physicians to fit a wider range of patients with the right CPAP or Bi-level mask. One-step fitting system, no complex adjustments.
Under Chin design - this feature brings maximum stability and an anti-leak design for the mask even when the patient moves his jaw during the night. Extra stability is always important when it comes to full face CPAP or Bi-level masks. Patients who breathe both through their nose and through the mouth require the use of such full face masks, but for optimum therapy the mask needs to be extremely stable.
Glider Strap Technology - the unique innovation allows patients to move their head freely, while the mask maintains proper seal. The mask will not shift from its position while the user moves his/her head from side to side or tilt it up or down. The FlexiFit 432 is your best choice if you use the mask while watching TV, or reading because it does not obstruct the field of vision like other full face masks in a similar range.
Premium Quality Frosted Silicone Seal - optimized seal technology by Fisher & Paykel Healthcare. The mask will slide extremely smoothly and comfortably onto the face thanks to the soft seal technology. The mask seal is further optimized by the frosted texture of the material which will not allow air to escape.
FlexiFit 432 Crown Strap - a perfect combination of under-chin mask design and a comfortable crown strap will ensure maximum stability of the full face mask. With this particular full face mask, users do not have to wear a complimentary chin strap.
Please contact SleepRestfully experts for more information available on the FlexiFit series of CPAP & Bi-level masks by Fisher & Paykel Healthcare.

If you want to grow your business, you either need to sell more to people who've bought from you previously, or identify more people to buy from you. I think that's obvious.
Equally obvious is the requirement to identify growth markets and invest in those.
But if you're the marketing exec responsible for an existing mature market, and your sales force would rather just develop opportunities from within their existing clients. You're already struggling to get someone in sales to pick up the leads that you're generating outside of the core clients.
Sound familiar? Have you got experience with these challenges? What did you do? What were some of the challenges?

A baby was born in Broward County last week suffering from chlamydia, herpes, syphilis, gonorrhea and a cocaine addiction.
The child is indicative of shortcomings in providing prenatal care to many South Florida women, the director of newborn intensive care at Broward General Hospital said on Monday at a forum at Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton.
"That baby will live," Dr. Brian Udell said. "And someday that baby will be voting."
"We can expect the mid-'90s to be times of turmoil in our classrooms," Udell said, citing statistics that estimate that one out of 20 children are exposed to drugs before birth.
"Traditionally, the pregnant addict can't get care," Udell said. "But now in Palm Beach County that's changing. There's some outpatient and some inpatient care, but they're stretched to the limit. They have every bed filled."
Dr. Anne Graham, director of the regional perinatal intensive care center at St. Mary's Hospital in West Palm Beach, said prenatal care must involve both social and medical issues. (Perinatal care involves care closely surrounding the time of birth.)
Graham said Palm Beach County has the resources available for the medical aspects of prenatal care, but women are not able to gain access to those services and need to be more educated about the subject.
"We are failing to reach these women," she said. "It's very important that we educate (pregnant women), especially teen-agers in whom we're noticing a drastic increase in the number of pregnancies and the lack of prenatal care," she said.
The forum was sponsored by U.S. Rep. Harry Johnston in conjunction with the World Summit on Children.

Yellow Cab Scheme execution unsatisfactory
Donors consider such schemes ineffective, against market norms
Steps demanded to reduce failures in poverty alleviation measures
Islamabad: [Dec 18]
The Pakistan Economy Watch (PEW) on Sunday said the much-publicised Yellow Cab Scheme is not coming up to the expectations due to mismanagement.
The scheme was launched on 14th of July 2011 with plan to distribute 2500 vehicles every month for eight months for the elimination of poverty and unemployment, it said.
However, the plan could not be executed properly as thousands of cars are rusting at different showrooms across Punjab awaiting delivery, said Dr. Murtaza Mughal, President of the Pakistan Economy Watch (PEW).
Authorities recently announced that 5000 applicants have won the lucky draw only to find that 4600 submitted fake documents, he said adding that verification process should have been completed before the balloting.
The Punjab government is yet to decide to hold another draw or invite fresh applications making it unlikely for them to distribute 20000 vehicles -- 16,000 Suzuki Mehrans and 4,000 Bolans –by the deadline, said Dr. Murtaza Mughal.
He said that proper measures should be taken to keep this scheme successful lest it meets the fate of Sasti Roti Scheme and Yellow Cab Scheme launched in early 1990s.
Billion were lost in the earlier scheme, it drained the exchequer, invited criticism, hurt local auto industry while thousands of cars were converted illegally, he said.
Dr. Murtaza Mughal said that all such schemes have weaknesses; recovery rate is lower, government has to pick up the losses and the political interference keeps the targeted group from benefit of credit.
Moreover, the lack of knowledge, collateral and security requirements stand in the way of the poor, he added.
International donors would not favour such schemes considering them ineffective and against the market-friendly system, said Dr. Mughal.
He demanded immediate action to avoid another addition to the failed poverty alleviation policies and programmes.

The 10th Century isn't a time period I generally think a great deal about, it being much farther back than I usually go (with the exception of a brief foray into ancient Roman costume), and so very lacking in information – the sources are very scanty indeed. So it's not likely that I'll do a great deal more 10th century sewing anytime soon, but since I worked on 10th century Norse clothes, the 10th century needs to be included!
While I was doing my undergraduate thesis project at Hampshire, a fellow Div III student, Freya, was putting together a museum exhibit of reproduction artifacts of 10th Century Scandinavian domestic life – Vikings at home, in other words. Toward that endeavor, I contributed clothing for Freya to display and then wear, based on archaeological evidence and various hypotheses about what the scraps of evidence might mean and how ancient many-centuries-old Scandinavian clothing would have been worn, looked, and functioned. Only scraps of fabric, beads, and ornaments remain, along with a few vague images of people and references in epic poetry. Researching and experimenting with clothing of a period with so little information presented a new and interesting challenge!
Sadly, this project is still waiting on a proper write up, but eventually I'll get some pictures from Freya and get back here with my notes and research to detail all of it, on the 10th Century Norsewoman's Clothes post.

In case you didn't know, middle schoolers can lack in some serious hygiene! You'd think being as old as they are that they are self sufficient when it comes to not having to be reminded about daily things such as showers, washing their hair, deodorant, brushing their teeth, etc. WRONG! Often midday, my room starts to smell like a gym locker that has had the same pair of stinky socks in it for a month. So, tomorrow my room will smell like a blueberry cheesecake. Ha!
I love the way the it smells, and the wax isn't so hot to the touch that it burns. Literally, you can stick your finger in it and no burn! Trust me when I was told that I tried!
If you'd like to order something, please just click link. There is a party already open called October Online Sales. This is my first venture doing anything like this and if you could refer people to my site, that would be AWESOME or if you'd like to place an order that would be even more AWESOME! Just trying to get my site out there:)
Anyway here are a few of my favorite scents right now:

Nearly 75 percent of the 786 CPAs who responded to a recent survey from the New Jersey Society of CPAs (NJCPA) said New Jersey's economy would get either "significantly worse" (31 percent) or "marginally worse" (44 percent) over the long term under Gov. Phil Murphy's proposed budget plan. Only 14 percent said it would end up better.
Respondents mostly blamed high taxes on corporations and individuals as a reason for the negative sentiment, which they said could eventually lead to more unemployment and an exodus of businesses and individuals from the state.
Overall almost 55 percent of the respondents rated the state's current economy "fair," compared with 28 percent who said it is "good," and 17 percent who said it's "poor." Only 1 percent rated the current economy as "excellent."
Actions that would get the economy on the right track: less regulation, lower marginal tax rates, repealing mandatory sick leave legislation, decoupling school-funding formula from property taxes, streamlining the police forces in the state, and converting pension plans to 401(k) retirement accounts.

Robert Shaw reports on how Flamengo seek to change history and become 1987 Copa União champions, beating rivals São Paulo to five National Championships
Two popular Brazilian clubs, Flamengo and São Paulo, are at loggerheads over a title. Not this year's national championship, which São Paulo won with four games to spare, but the Copa União of 1987. Official champions that year were Sport from Recife, but Flamengo argue that the title should go to them. São Paulo were recently given a special trophy for being the first team to win five national championships – this year's title adding to those of 1977, 1986, 1991 and 2006 – while Flamengo are still on four, years after the disputed season. The commemoration of São Paulo's penta (fifth) by the Brazilian federation (CBF) prompted an exchange of letters, a media campaign and a plague of rival T‑shirts. One São Paulo fan spent the equivalent of £1 million extolling his team on billboards in the capital Brasilia, while Flamengo legend Zico complained: "Everyone knows that the CBF did not recognise Flamengo's title due to political disputes."
In 1987, a breakaway group of 13 clubs, frustrated by national disorganisation, decided to run their own championship, called the "Green Module", while the CBF organised another competition, the "Yellow Module". The CBF subsequently decided play-offs between the two Module winners would determine the national champions. But Flamengo, who beat Internacional in the Green final, refused to play yellow champions Sport. The CBF then declared Sport champions. The impasse, with an asterisk placed in the records denoting the two champions for 1987, has excited trivia buffs ever since.
In 1988, São Paulo were among the clubs who backed a letter recognising Flamengo as the legitimate champions of 1987. But this cut little ice with the CBF, FIFA or indeed Sport Recife, who maintain their single national title has an unimpeachable legal basis, given that in 1988 they also contested the Copa Libertadores.
Why wait 15 years to pursue this? Part of the answer may lie in noisy Paulista triumphalism. Flamengo have spent the interim developing a reputation for being Brazil's worst-run club, with copious funds reportedly siphoned off by an assortment of directors and agents. Badly hit by the collapse of former sponsor ISL, Flamengo have been unable to access millions of pounds from their current backers, oil company Petrobras, due to their inability to pay off debts that automatically froze sponsorship payments. The penta é nosso (the fifth title is ours) campaign coincided with a remarkable resurgence in 2007, brought about by the return of talismanic coach Joel Santana. From no‑hopers stuck in the relegation area, Flamengo have now qualified for the 2008 Copa Libertadores. Although their tactics, based on two speedy wingers bombing forward, seem Neanderthal, crowds above 80,000 have created a caldeirão (cauldron) to upset even the best-organised opponents, with São Paulo and Santos losing in the Maracanã.
While Flamengo remain the country's most popular club, São Paulo can claim to be the most successful, as celebrated on their fans' "5-3-3" T-shirt – the numbers represent five national, three Libertadores and three world titles. But such assessments are complicated by the fact that the national title was only created in 1971. Before that, the best performers in the state championships of Rio and São Paulo had usually played one another in an annual tournament, whose winners were perceived to be unofficial national champions. But this was never conclusive because some of the best teams, notably Botafogo in the Fifties and Pelé's Santos in the Sixties, paid more attention to lucrative foreign tours once the state leagues were over.
The Flamengo-São Paulo rift is one of many from Brazilian football's past. Botafogo and Fluminense cannot decide which won the 1907 Carioca Championship; only in April did FIFA accept the 1951 Copa Rio success of Palmeiras made them de facto world champions. Part of the problem with revisionism is that formats have constantly changed, with many championships played more as knockout cups than leagues. Legal action is another complication, as the mountain of claims and counter-claims could just bring the game to a halt, not to mention incur the wrath of FIFA. But before the 2014 World Cup, it seems certain that Brazilian football authorities will be asked to tie up some loose ends reaching back a century.

Microsoft on Thursday announced a new Office 365 benefit, offering enterprise-sized nonprofit customers free additional Office 365 F1 seats for their volunteers.
The new Office 365 benefit enables nonprofit customers who have Enterprise Agreements with Microsoft to receive 10 free Office 365 F1 seats for their volunteers per licensed Microsoft 365 E3 or E5 seat. Office 365 F1 includes applications for email, calendars, team collaboration, messaging, intranet, file storage and sharing. Nonprofits with 250 or more users in their organization are eligible for the Enterprise Agreement. The offer starts Jan. 1, according to the company.
Microsoft Cloud Solution Providers will be able to offer the Volunteer Use Benefit to customers directly via the Cloud Solution Provider Channel in spring 2020, according to the company.
The news comes after the company's announcement in September offering nonprofits free Microsoft 365 Business for up to 10 users. Thursday's announcement extended this Office 365 benefit to nonprofit volunteers.
This is not the first time Microsoft has donated or provided services for free. Some of their collaboration software programs, such as Exchange, OneDrive, SharePoint and Teams, are available to qualified nonprofits. "But it does mark a significant expansion of access for nonprofits who already pay for Office 365. Keep in mind that Microsoft has long had steep discounts for students and educators, as well," said Nicole France, principal analyst and vice president at Constellation Research.
The recent move is motivated by several factors, she said. "One is certainly 'keeping up with the Joneses' or Salesforces, as the case may be, in terms of publicizing and extending support for the nonprofit sector," France said.
Another factor has to do with the way Microsoft wants to be perceived by current and potential employees, especially millennials, France said. "We know that this demographic group in particular — an increasingly important one, in terms of recruiting and retention — is strongly motivated by an employer's mission in the world, not just its commercial business. I suspect this is a significant part of the rationale for giving the nonprofit sector some additional love and attention."
Lastly, she said, the offering addresses the pressing need for nonprofits to provide appropriate tools to their large numbers of volunteers.

I am currently seven months pregnant with our first baby and we are overjoyed and super excited for what the future will hold.
Over Easter there have been a few opportunities to eat out, this is definitely one of my favourite pass times and like to make the most of every opportunity. By this I mean if it is socially acceptable to eat three courses (i.e. other people on the table will join me) then you can bet your bottom dollar ill be eating a starter, main and pudding.
Now…pregnancy is lovely and there is so much to enjoy about the journey but eating a lot in one sitting is not one of them! I am yet to learn to a) not choose something on the menu stodgey/huge and b) not to eat until I am fit to burst like I would have happily done pre pregnancy.
So when my mum came to visit last weekend and she asked me to book somewhere nice to eat on the Saturday night I saw this as an opportunity to find somewhere I could have an enjoyable eating experience without leaving feeling like I need to lie down (not like that will help due to the delightful acid reflux!).
I did some research and found that Koj in Cheltenham has had good reviews so I booked us a table. When we arrived our coats were taken and we were shown the drinks menu, on which I was pleased to see were some non-alcoholic cocktails and green tea which I drink a lot of nowadays and find it helps digestion.
The menu was small and consists of little dishes to share with a quirky take on Japanese cuisine. The staff were attentive and brought the food out tapas style as and when it was ready. We found the edamame beans an entertaining appetizer as they have a tendency to shoot across the table when eaten, we also had the cabbage and padron peppers which were all fresh and full of flavour.
We plumped for the soft shell crab and duck leg buns which despite the 'not for sharing' note on the menu two of us managed to try a bit of both and they were both delicious. A good way to try soft shell crab if you are new to it like me as it is in a bun and covered in mayo so looks less scary.
An absolute revelation for the grazing dishes was the root vegetable and tofu oden with a light mushroom sauce which had a lovely umami taste and was addictive. We also scoffed the fried chicken which didn't dissapoint and also the Japanese bubble and squeak (who knew?).
The desserts come as small bites and are just what we needed to finish on a sweet note, the sticky toffee pudding was as good as I have tasted (and I have had a few!) and I finished the meal with some green tea.
I left feeling 'nicely full' and felt like I had not missed out by trying to be good and order something small and light or missing out on courses. I would highly recommend to fellow pregnant ladies for a special occasion or as the prices are not too steep just for a nice meal out.
As I go through this amazing adventure that is pregnancy and every thing feels like a learning curve you have to hold on to the small victories and visiting Koj was definitely one of these.

Remember how you always got along with your parents?
Me neither.
If your upbringing was anything like mine, it felt like your parents made you do EVERYTHING:
"Do the dishes! Clean your room! Mow the lawn!"
Now, imagine you go back to when you were 13 years old.
What if your parents came home… after a long day… and they see that you already did all the chores?
They would be shocked.
Your clients are a lot like your parents. They expect you to be as bad as every other lawn company.
But if you can surprise your clients by being different… they will shower you in dollar bills.
Prove that you are better. Fix these top 15 complaints clients have about the typical lawn care company:
We scoured the negative reviews from hundreds of lawn companies around the United States and Canada.
These are the top 15 complaints we saw that "broke the client's back," and made them leave their lawn care provider:
1. "Help! They left the gate open, and my dog ran away!"
It's not hard, but this complaint comes up all the time.
In order to make certain the gate gets shut, set a reminder for your job. A happy client is a sticky client, and you need all of those you can get.
And to help you
2. They don't answer the phone.
This might be the number one complaint. People want to be heard. If you are in the field and can't always answer the phone, hire an office assistant.
If you can't hire an office assistant, consider hiring a virtual assistant. We have one that's been working wonders for our members for years.
3. They break things, and don't tell the client.
Accidents happen. The best way to deal with them is to notify them, apologize, and fix it ASAP.
If you're honest with your client, there's a chance they'll reward your honesty with continued service. However, if you lie you've got a 99% chance they're going to leave you out of mistrust.
Even though you'll pay more money upfront, if you keep the client you'll get that money back 10x over.
Helpful side note: Service Autopilot actually has a way to upload pictures of the damage and create accident notes – all within the online app!
4. They are always late.
If you give appointment times, keep them. If you're going to be late, call. Clients appreciate your accountability.
And if your team is late due to irresponsible employees, consider tracking them via GPS. You can do this within Service Autopilot, so you'll know where you team members are at all times.
5. "Weren't they supposed to mow my lawn today… ?"
Stick to your schedule and give notice when it must change. No stay-at-home parent wants to reschedule a play-date because you came a day late to treat their yard.
And if you have to give notice of a schedule change, you can send your clients a notification through our automated two-way texting and emails.
"Who the heck is that?"
Try to maintain continuity on your crews. People like to see familiar faces, because they develop relationships with people they see all the time.
If you shift around who does what every week, you miss an opportunity for clients to have that connection with your team.
7. "You missed a spot."
Spotty service comes from overworked, rushed, or poorly-trained employees. Make sure your employees know what they're doing and have an adequate amount of time to get it done.
No one wants to see a filthy pickup truck parked at the end of their driveway. Make sure your vehicles are clean (within reason) and carry your company's logo.
9. They leave behind a mess.
Don't leave clippings on the sidewalk or on the street. Don't blow debris onto window sills. That's the first sign of a cheapskate.
Leave nothing behind, but a job well done.
10. "What am I paying for? This invoice is so confusing!"
Your invoices should be as simple as you can make them. Dates of service, rates, your name/logo, their name. Don't make it hard for your clients to pay you.
You can have your invoices automatically sent with Service Autopilot's done-for-you invoice templates.
11. Their invoices are unprofessional.
Double-check the spelling and grammar of your invoice descriptions and the text that's on every invoice. Have someone take a look for you. It's a simple step and maintains your image as a high-quality professional.
The best part? As a Service Autopilot user, you only have to personalize your template one. Then, it'll be automatically sent to your clients from infinity and beyond.
12. They are not clear with their prices and service descriptions.
Your teams need to know what they sell and how to set proper expectations for new customers. Make it clear when something costs extra and explain why (additional labor, product, etc… ).
13. They make clients repeat themselves.
Nobody wants to explain their problem to three different people, three different times.
Keep notes from calls, so you give consistent information and make the client feel that your company always listens.
You can store these notes online through your Service Autopilot account.
Need a better way to manage your clients, calls, and to-dos?
14. They are rude and condescending on the phone.
Be polite and courteous on the phone. Make sure your office staff is as well. You want clients to feel heard and valued. If your staff is rude or disrespectful, your clients will run away.
15. They don't deal with complaints.
Take charge when a client complains. Commit to a solution and tell your client about your plan of action. No news is not good news; it's bad news.
There are some critical questions you should always ask your new clients:
- What do you wish I would focus on?
- What did your last lawn care provider do that was great?
- What did your last lawn provider do that made you angry?
If you hurt a client, you have to carefully nurse the relationship back to health. If you avoid the pain in the first place, you will build a stronger relationship with the client.
The better your relationship, the longer they stick around and the more you can upsell to them.
When in doubt, remember your parents. How would you "wow" them?
Want to know how to find, train, AND keep great employees?
Through thick and thin, you need your clients… even when you don't like what they have to say. So some of these complaints might hit a little too close to home.
In order to grow your lawn care business, you have to be willing to listen to your clients' wants, needs and complaints. It's just a part of doing business.
If you want to own a successful lawn care business, you're going to have to be willing to make some changes as common client complaints arise.
You're going to mess up. It's a fact, and pretending otherwise would be a lie. So own up to those mistakes and correct them when you're at fault.
You're human. Your clients are human. They understand you're going to make mistakes. When you own up to those mistakes and make integral changes in your business, you might just be surprised how understanding and loyal your clients are.

THREE'S COMPANY: Sushmita Sen, Shah Rukh Khan and Fardeen Khan in a still from Dulha Mil Gaya
With SRK and Sushmita Sen teaming up again
BINA TRIVEDI Times News Network (BOMBAY TIMES; January 2, 2010)
Sweeping aside the sceptics, Mudassar Aziz's Dulha Mil Gaya — a comic caper shot for the most part in the Caribbean Islands, is slated for a mammoth release worldwide on January 8.
The film's leading lady Sushmita Sen says DMG is a passionately told story and it has a delightful plot line. For her fans it is important because she teams up with Bollywood Badshah Shah Rukh Khan after their last super-hit
Main Hoon Na.
The film's leading lady Sushmita Sen says DMG is a passionately told story and it has a delightful plot line. For her fans it is important because she teams up with Bollywood Badshah Shah Rukh Khan after their last super-hit
Main Hoon Na.
SRK has a pivotal role as Raj, while the film's leading man Fardeen Khan (playing Shashank) has his own share of fun and romance.
It is now official that PVR has tied up to distribute this magnum opus through their network in Delhi, UP, East Punjab and Mysore. Morpheus Media Ventures, the films presenters, and Viveck Vaswani are gung-ho about their PVR tie-up. And the film will have a colossal release in terms of prints across the globe.
The title track of DMG is already a hit this wedding season with "baraats" all over blasting it. And for some live publicity action, on January 3, Fardeen will even dress in his bride-groom gear and drive in a chariot to a Mumbai mall to claim his bride Isshita Sharma.
What's more, Bollywood Hungama has registered in excess of 1,75,000 hits on Dulha Mil Gaya's theatrical trailer (more than any other forthcoming film), in less than one month. "I'm elated," says writer-director Mudassar Aziz, "we made this music and this film only to entertain our audiences, them enjoying it leaves me gratified."
"It has been a long but exhilarating journey. It's been the best example of teamwork that I have ever seen. The unit stuck together through thick and thin. The scale of the film has to be seen to be believed," said Viveck Vaswani, the producer.

Can a Legal Separation Be Withdrawn If We Get Back Together?
There are times when couples who are in the midst of serious marital problems seek a legal separation. This usually takes place when they are either working towards a reconciliation or considering a permanent split. A divorce is a legal dissolution of a marriage. However, a legal separation is a court order which mandates the rights and duties of a couple who remain married but live in separate homes.
What is a Legal Separation?
Unlike a divorce, a legal separation is not permanent. But much like a divorce, during a legal separation, the courts will make provisions regarding the division of assets, spousal or child support, and child visitation. Some people consider this process to be a trial run for an actual divorce in an effort to ascertain if a permanent split is the right decision. There are states, such as Texas, that do not allow legal separations.
Differences Between a Legal Separation and a Divorce
There are specific differences between a legal separation and a divorce; the most distinct one being that legally separated couples remain married. However, spouses are allowed to retain health care and Social Security benefits during a legal separation. Those benefits are terminated after a divorce. Another key difference between a legal separation and divorce is that your spouse is still considered to be the next of kin and is responsible for making medical or financial decisions should you become seriously incapacitated.
In a divorce, the division of debt is allocated during the court proceedings; yet during a legal separation, both parties may still be responsible for the marital debts incurred. During a legal separation, a spouse has the right to seek property benefits from their deceased partner's estate. These benefits are no longer available after a divorce.
In contrast to a divorce, you cannot remarry during a legal separation. But most importantly, a divorce is final. If a couple wants to reunite; they have to remarry.
Reversing a Legal Separation
A legal separation doesn't mean a marriage has ended. If a couple separates, they have the opportunity to stay together if both parties decide to reconcile. This process is called a reversal. Once you and your spouse have agreed to permanently reunite, you'll need to obtain a copy of the original Order of Legal Separation. If for some reason you did not receive this order after filing for separation you can obtain a copy from the family court clerk where you initially filed for separation. If the judge never filed the order, then you and your spouse are not legally separated, and you can move on with your lives.
If the judge did enter the order, then you will need to complete a Motion to Vacate Order of Legal Separation. This motion will affirm that both you and your spouse have decided to end the separation. It is also necessary to give a reason for the reconciliation and confirm that a divorce was never filed or finalized. The docket number from the original order will need to be included in this document. You should ask the family court clerk for instructions on how to appropriately complete this motion. You can find examples of these filings online, but it may be useful to seek legal representation to ensure that you present the information correctly. If the motion is not completed accurately and according to the court's required format, the judge may deny your request.
Both you and your spouse will need to sign this motion and then draft an Order to Vacate Order of Legal Separation. This should be placed at the end of your motion and does not need to be elaborate or exhaustive. It could conceivably say, "The above-entitled action is ordered vacated." Make sure to include a space where the judge can sign and date the order.
The Motion to Vacate as well as the Order should be filed with the clerk at the Family Court where you originally filed for legal separation. Include a copy of the Order for Legal Separation, and be prepared to pay a filing fee. This fee must be paid in full before your motion will be accepted by the court.
Once the orders and motions are filed, a hearing date will be set by the court, and both you and your spouse will need to attend. During the hearing, you will explain the reasons for the reconciliation, and unless there are extenuating circumstances, the court will cancel the separation. All assets will return to the pre-separation status. In addition, alimony or spousal support, child custody arrangements and child support will end. At that point, the court no longer has any jurisdiction over your marital status.
