(A Random Post)
Joke time!
Q: What is the proper term to describe the complete and utter wasting of a valuable weekend day playing Marvel Nemesis: Rise of the Imperfects for 10 hours straight with Max – only interrupted by a movie that could potentially rate in the high 5's or low 6's on the Van Helsing Scale (aka Ultraviolet) – and still failing to beat the game, along with watching the first three quarters of American Samurai, and completely failing to achieve our only objective of the night, which was going to Korean barbeque?
A: An absolutely normal Saturday.
And the best part is…it's not even funny.

Secrets of Selling Insurance to Multicultural Clients
Minorties in America are more than one-third of the population and the US Census Bureau estimates they will become the majority by 2050.
The minority population is growing much faster than the Caucasion population primarily because these families are younger and larger on average.
Whether you sell life, disability, long term care this is good news. The huge and growing market is an opportunity for life insurance producers if you know the secrets of how to meet the unique needs of Hispanics, African Americans, Asians, Middle Easterners and others.
The first secret that insurance professionals must understand is that minorities don't necessarily need or want to work with an agent who is from their own culture. In fact, many clients deliberately seek out agents who are not from their culture because they are afraid that if they disclose personal financial or health information to someone from their own culture, it might be easily shared within their community.
The second secret is that, unless a person is recently immigrated and there is a language barrier, they are usually happy to work with anyone who is sensitive to their culture. Unfortunately in the first 30 seconds most untrained agents will unintentionally insult a multicultural client at least three times. This obviously will not build a trusting relationship or obtain referral. So what are some of the ways we can offend multicultural minority clients?
The first and most common mistake most people make when greeting somone from a different culture is to assume that they automatically want to shake your hand. While this may be natural for you, it could extremely uncomfortable and possibly even insulting to someone from outside of the United States.
For instance, many Middle Eastern, Asian Indian and Japanese women are forbidden to touch any man who is not her husband or relative. The secret to avoiding this problem is to stop assuming that everyone wants to shake hands and let the other person tell you how they want to be greeted. Don't just automatically stick your hand out when you meet someone for the first time. Instead, introduce yourself and let the other person give whatever greeting he or she is most comfortable with and then simply return the gesture.
When greeting a couple you will generally greet the man first. Remember to wait to see what kind of greeting he gives you. If he offers his hand go ahead and shake it but be sure to drop your hand to your side before turning to the woman. She will likely just nod to acknowledge you and you should do the same.
The second way that many agents insult their customers is by assuming eye contact is the same around the world. For instance, in the United States we tend to think of looking others in the eye as essential when building relationships. In fact, we relate eye contact to honesty, sincerity and respect. The secret with direct eye contact is that some cultures consider it rude and disrespectful. The is common in Asian and Native American cultures where people will often look down while taking as a sign of respect for others. So instead of feeling uncomfortable or trying to get eye contact if a client looks away – just to the same.
The third way that insurance professionals can make clients feel uncomfortable is by standing too close or too far away when talking. In the United States, we stand about two feet apart after shaking hands, and that's the distance at which we tend to talk. However, in Japan for instance, people there are much more formal and will shake hands or bow and then step back to give each other greater personal space.
However, for an American, this is way too much room so we naturally step forward which violates the Japanese person's personal space. This causes them to step backward and for the American to end up chasing them all over their home!
On the other hand, there are some cultures that stand much closer when talking than Americans are used to. One example is from the Middle East. They might shake hands and then take a step forward, putting them just inches away from each other's face, which is obviously much too close for some people in this country. In fact, in the Middle East they have a saying, "When I'm talking to a friend I want to feel is breath on my cheek." As a result, the American will step backward, force the Middle Eastern buyer to chase him all over the office.
The secret to dealing with personal space differences is simply to stand still if a client steps backward or forward after your initial greeting. It may be a bit uncomfortable for you but the key is to do what's comfortable for the client.
This is what good customer service, in any language is all about.
These and other cultural mistakes can ruin a relationship before it even gets started. So be sure to let the client show you how he or she wants to be greeted, if you don't get direct ey contact don't expect it, and if the customer steps in or back after your greeting just stand your ground and let them determine how much personal space he or she wants. If you do just these three things in the first 30 seconds it will put you light years ahead of your competion.
Remember, these could be your client if you are willing to adjust your practices, just a little, to meet their unique needs. If you do, you will win clients for a lifetime who are more likely than th average person to refer their friends and family to you.

Opposing forces can be simultaneously true within a human being. We are complex creatures, capable of extraordinary phenomena. One of my dearest spiritual teachers, David La Chapelle (who departed from this earthly realm in July 2009), taught that if a person had the capacity for a lot of hope, then that usually meant that they also had the capacity for a lot of despair. Opposites tend to exist simultaneously within a person. To figure out your primary pair of opposing forces, just think about a quality that you often experience, such as excitement, faith, or contentment. Then look at that quality's polar opposite, such as melancholy, doubt, or restlessness. Can you see how you embody both of those polarities?
For me this concept plays out in the forms of Radiance & Darkness. When I am feeling the happiness of the Spiritual Life, I tend to beam it out in all directions, to many beings, in a Radiance that many people see and comment on. For example, someone might say to me, "Your smile lights up the room." But the flip side of all my brightness is a tendency to spiral down into dark, negative thoughts. In my darkness, it's pretty dark. As a highly sensitive person, I experience all of my emotions deeply, including the not-so-fun ones. Fortunately, I have learned many tools for working skillfully with the darkness, such as harnessing the positive powers of my inner coach. Using positive self-talk, I know how to guide my thoughts into a more elevated direction.
At the beginning of my new book, which is a new version of an ancient story from India, I offer a section called "Radiance Rising" in which I share an extensive list of spiritual practices that will help you to work skillfully with any opposing forces within you.

« IndietroContinua »
English by contact with Greek, a criticism of one language by another, a fertilisation. But there is no substitute, no adequate translation. Some of these translators have fallen into the abyss of Murray. Mr. Aldington's Anyte is good, but hardly ever steps aside from the path of Mackail. There is no use in merely multiplying translations of Greek epigrams which after all belong rather to the art of epigraphy than to literature. The Greeks, like the Italians, put intelligence upon monuments. If our tombstone artists could study Greek —but this is a divagation. H. D. is a poet. She has at least avoided the traditional jargon prescribed for translators: she has turned Euripides into English verse which can be taken seriously, verse of our own time, as modern as was Swinburne's when it appeared. Her verse is a perversion of the opposite extreme. Swinburne is too fluid, H. D. too abrupt. The participle becomes an indicative; most of the "I saw" and "I heard" drop out; the chorus becomes an independent poem. Her type of verse makes her task the more difficult. It relies upon a succession of images; and the images of the Greek tragedian were made up of stock phrases rearranged. Thus she is compelled sometimes to lose contact with the original in avoiding clichés:
A flash—
Euripides says only that the women saw Achilles swift-running, swift as the wind. It would be impossible to find Classics in English
equivalents for swift as the wind and swift-running and escape redundancy. This sort of improvement is permissible, but only marks time: it does not enrich English from Greek. And in a few cases, where Euripides' style is merely bald, the alteration is not an improvement. "I keep the memory of the assembled army" becomes "My mind is graven with ships" with obvious loss of dignity. And in the translation—
There is no power but in base men
the meaning is completely perverted; Euripides has made the characteristic remark, that men should not strive to be illustrious (in "virtue" in the Greek sense) lest they bring down on themselves the invidia of the gods. Again,
Each man is marked for his toil,
is not only a similar mistranslation, but fails to rise quite to what is the emotional crisis of the play. Still, it is a great deal to have translations that one can read, translations into the language of contemporary verse, even if H. D.'s monotonously short lines with excess of stops and defect of connectives are sometimes tiring to eye and ear. And often she does succeed in bringing something out of the Greek language to the English, in an immediate contact which gives life to both, the contact which makes it possible for the modern language perpetually to draw sustenance from
the dead:
May no child of mine,
Ever fashion such a tale
The translations of Sappho and Leonidas do not deserve mention. Some of the Latin poetry of the Renaissance which Mr. Aldington gives us is translated for the first time, and some may be found in Mr. Pound's Spirit of Romance. Mr. Flint has done a service in translating the M10 sella, but is not a "boat propelled with oars" the same thing as a row-boat? T. S. Eliot
The Divine Comedy, translated by Henry Johnson. Yale University Press. It is assuredly an honorable ambition that prompts one to the difficult and ungrateful task of translating metrically the entire Divine Comedy, line for line; and it is an honorable procedure to "rely solely," as Professor Johnson has done, "on one's control of the English medium, unaided." He has indeed been as "faithful" as he claims. More: he has shown himself sturdy, dogged, ploddingly, professorially persistent. He has made a real campaign, like the British in Picardy—a trench a day, a town a week; and on page 436 he reaches duly the church triumphant and the luce eterna. But a line-for-line translation of Dante must always tip toward prose. The verbal glamour is necessarily lost; the finely-woven chain of the terza rima—a web of steel and of flowers—is sacrificed no less. We are likely to have, when all's done, not the carved marbles of a Florentine duomo, Classics in English
but only a plain, neat, four-square edifice in colonial brick; not samite or cloth-of-gold, but simple serge or cheviot; not beccaficos or peacocks' tongues, but just everyday roast beef and boiled potatoes. It cannot be said that the present translation seems less conscientiously humdrum than one in prose (such as Norton's), or one on the same line-for-line plan (such as Longfellow's), or one in short paragraphs of literal prose, corresponding to each terzina (such as the co-operative version issued by Dent). Indeed, it would not be difficult to go farther and indicate passages where Professor Johnson has renounced advantages of epithet and rhythm rightly his. Briefly, here as elsewhere, the Unbeschreibliche does not get itself gethan. The present volume is absolutely without notes, except for a few pages devoted, curiously, to the translation of Latin phrases. However, in conjunction with another book of the right sort, it might serve a useful lexicographical purpose. Alongside of some good Italian text that has a liberal provision of notes both grammatical and historical—old Bianchi's, let us say—it would become a real help, as a pony or even as a dictionary, for the American student who has taken up Dante a little before being prepared for him. A handsome volume, inside and out. H. B. F.
Each year our November number bears a special and difficult responsibility—the awarding of prizes. This year the editors and advisory committee of PoETRY are enabled, through the generosity of three lovers of the art, all of Chicago, to award three prizes for poems printed in the magazine during its fourth year—October, 1915, to September, 1916. The first prize is restricted to a citizen of the United States; the other two, of which one is for a lyric, make no distinction of nationality.
From this competition poems by members of the editorial staff are withdrawn, the members represented this year being Alice Corbin Henderson, Henry B. Fuller and Ezra Pound. Poems by Mr. Yeats are not eligible, because of his very gracious declination of our Guarantors' Prize the first year. Messrs. Sandburg and Lindsay, who received the Levinson Prize in 1914 and 1915, are not eligible again for that award. And translations are not considered.
The HELEN HAIRE LEVINSON PRIZE of two hundred dollars, offered by Mr. Salmon O. Levinson, of Chicago, for a poem, or group of poems, by a citizen of the United States, is awarded to
of Chicago, for his poem, All Life in a Life, published in the March number. One member of the jury, while concurring in the award to Mr. Masters, votes for the poem Arabel, in the November number.

You can create compound bends in sheet metal parts using the Swept Flange tool.
The Swept Flange tool is similar to the Sweep tool; you need a profile and path to create the flange. So there are going to be two sketches one consisting of path and the other consisting of profile.
Swept Flange (New in SolidWorks 2012)
Click Swept Flange on the Sheet Metal toolbar, or click Insert, Sheet Metal, Swept Flange
To create a swept flange, you need an open sketch as the profile, and an open profile path or a series of existing edges in a sheet metal part. Any cuts, holes, chamfers, or fillets on the bend region of the swept flange do not appear in the flat pattern.
To start with we have created a simple Sheet Metal shape shown below using the Base Flange/Tab command from the sheet metal toolbar.
Now we start creating another sketch which is our profile as shown below. In this case the face has been selected as sketch plane.
Note: The start point of the path must lie on the plane of the profile.
Now we start creating the profile we want to use for Swept flange command as shown below
Now as shown below we exit sketch and as seen in the feature tree there is a sketch created (Profile) and in this case we are going to use the edges of the Base-Flange as our path.
Now we use the Swept Flange command and select the sketch as our profile and the edges as our path as shown below.
The final part with Swept Flange is shown below along with its Flatten state.

You live in an apartment and it has a lot of mold. Good news? Bad news? News at all? The answer is all three.
It's good news if you are a mold hobbiest. What an opportunity. And if you can harvest the penicillin, so much the better.
It's bad news if you are one of the many people who react poorly to mold. Some of us just sneeze. Others can become pretty ill.
And in a way its no news at all. Because every room has some amount of mold. It's the large number of mold colonies, the out of control mold problem, that's really notable.
If you live in an apartment and you have what amounts to a mold infestation, do something about it.
Out of control mold is a likely result of chronic moisture, perhaps caused by leaking pipes, condensation, or a bad roof, coupled with a warm, dark space for mold nurturing. Bathrooms are prone to develop this problem, but any room can be a target.
Your landlord most likely has a duty to maintain your apartment in a liveable or "habitable" condition. Chronic mold, especially mold caused by faulty maintenance, may very well be a problem for which your landlord is legally responsible to cure.
How about a condominium? Often, the condominium association is responsible for the common areas, which may include roofing and exterior walls. In such case, the question becomes whether the mold growth is a result of water penetration from the roof or the exterior walls.
How about mold at the work place? While laws vary, and claims may be limited by workers compensation laws, an employer generally must provide employees with safe, healthy working conditions. One may perhaps successfully argue that allowing a mold garden to grow does not translate into a safe working climate.
Finally, how about mold in your own home? If you own the home, suing the owner may not be productive. But, consider whether the mold is in fact attributable to faulty repairs by a service company. If that is the case you may have something to talk about. If you just purchased the home and the mold condition was known and hidden by the prior owner, that too may provide for interesting conversation.
Ultimately, these issues are very fact sensitive. No two cases are the same. And state laws, as well as leases, condominium documents, and home sale agreements, all vary. All of this means that serious require professional review.
Every state requires legal action within a certain time period. This is called a statute of limitations. So if you must take legal action, do so before your case becomes old and moldy.

FAQ: Can the same user name from a trial ArcGIS Online organizational subscription be used in a full organizational subscription?
Can the same user name from a trial ArcGIS Online organizational subscription be used in a full organizational subscription?
Yes. If an ArcGIS Online trial organizational subscription is being converted to a full organizational subscription, the same user name can be used to activate the full organizational subscription.
However, to activate a new full organizational subscription or to join a pre-established organizational subscription with the user name that already exists in a trial, the user name must first be deleted from the trial subscription.
Only an administrator can invite, disable, or delete members in an organizational subscription. However, an administrator cannot delete their own user name.
If the desired user name is the only administrator on a trial, the administrator must invite a new user and grant the new user administrative privileges. The new administrator then deletes the original administrator from the trial organizational subscription.
Prior to deleting the desired user name from the trial, any content owned by the desired user name must be deleted or transferred to a different user so that the desired user name no longer owns any content.

It's like the sunset was trying to make up for the dreary day! Very pretty, and I've never seen a pink rainbow either. They had a red one on a weird-weather TV show on the Weather Channel once, but I think it had something to do with a dust cloud.
I loved the big carnival glass bowl at the flea. That would have tempted me!
Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful glass bowl at the flea. Too bad everyone was packing up as you arrived. Brrrrrr, sounds chilly. Yeah, I guess it's saying something if YOU were cold!
Sometimes here, in early summer, it's stays overcast all day (Marine layer) and it's similar to what you described. The sun THINKS about peeking through just as it's about to set. Your sunset was spectacular! It's like the day was trying to make it up to you :)
Our neighbors had a pre-Thanksgiving potluck yesterday. So much fun, and so much good stuff to eat. The traditional turkey and stuff, but also tamales, and pupusas, yummy. And a really good pasta salad with lots of fresh spinach that I'll share with you when I get the recipe. There was a glutton free dressing with persimmons mixed in, and a pumpkin bread pudding topped with ice cream, caramel sauce and pecans. Good stuff!

About Eyelid Surgery
The eyes are a unique component of the face that deserve to be shown; however, an abundance of sagging skin above or under the eyes can create an aging look. Midland, MI Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon Dr. David Yonick offers blepharoplasty (also known as eyelid surgery) to remove excess skin and lift the upper or lower eyelid, creating a look that appears softer and rejuvenated. Countless men and women undergo eyelid surgery at Yonick Plastic Surgery to remove puffy bulges, which helps with both functionality and facial appearance. Upper and lower eyelid surgery creates a fresh, youthful appearance and can produce subtle yet striking improvements.
Eyelid Lift Ideal Candidates
Eyelid surgery is a cosmetic surgery that is sought out by both men and women. During your private consultation, treatment alternatives will be discussed with Dr. Yonick based on your symptoms that need to be addressed. In most cases, ideal candidates wish to correct excess, hanging skin and folds above their eyes or bulging skin below bottom eyelid. These conditions can cause vision impairment that can hinder of daily life. For a rejuvenated appearance, eyelid surgery may be the right procedure for you. If you have loose skin that droops on the upper eyelid or bags under the eyes, blepharoplasty can correct this to give you a younger appearance.
Eyelid Lift Reviews
Eyelid Lift Surgical Technique
During blepharoplasty, depending on the complexity of the surgery, general anesthesia or IV sedation will be given. Eyelid surgery may be done on the upper eyelid alone, on the bottom eyelid, or a combination of both upper and lower during the same surgery.
- Upper
Upper blepharoplasty assists in diminishing the hanging of skin that droops over the eye and creates a more appealing eyelid appearance. An incision is usually made along the lash line or crease to trim away tissue and fat.
- Lower
Lower eyelid surgery is performed to reduce puffy skin under the lower eyelid. The incision is placed just under the lash line to allow access to remove fatty tissue, and the skin is delicately lifted to produce a smoother look. In some cases, a nonsurgical laser treatment can be applied to assist with discoloration, while dermal fillers can be used for added smoothness if necessary.
What to Expect with Eyelid Lift
Blepharoplasty can last up to two hours based on whether one or both eyes are treated. After the procedure, you should take a few days to rest and avoid strenuous activities. Ice packs can help reduce bruising and swelling. The results from blepharoplasty can last years and although the results are lasting, the aging process does not stop. To complement the surgical outcomes, facial rejuvenation treatments at Yonick Plastic Surgery such as lasers, chemical peels, and fillers can be paired to create an uplifted appearance.
Plan Your Procedure
Eyelid Lift Look More Awake
If you are having a hard time seeing due to hanging skin on the upper eyelid or are frustrated by puffy bags underneath your eyes, then blepharoplasty at Yonick Plastic Surgery may be right for you. This surgery can help you look youthful and awakened. We invite you to contact our office in Midland, MI to schedule a consultation with Dr. David Yonick.

dutch OB 20
Jay Lancaster replied to dutch ob 20's topic in B & B Yachts ForumTyping from the bleachers here... One of the main advantages of using carbon is for weight savings. The stuff is very expensive in comparison to glass. To me, it doesn't make sense to use carbon (especially alot of it) in a hand layup. Unless you are very good at epoxy work, you are almost assured to use too much resin...which will negate the weight savings you were hoping to get from the carbon in the first place. I feel that carbon fiber should be bagged in order to gain it's full advantage. My other "issue" with it is the fact that it's so stiff. One of the best attributes of a wood boat is how it rides in comparison to a "glass" boat. It just seems that some of that soft wood feel would be lost with carbon in the hull skin. Maybe that's the wrong way of thinking, I don't know. With all that said, you can get an aramid/eglass blend that might work better for you. I suspect that it would be less expensive than the carbon weave. Regardless, you may want to consider adding glass over top just so you don't have to deal with sanding over aramid.

Jay Lancaster replied to DKSkelly's topic in B & B Yachts ForumTrim tabs will give you the performance enhancement you're looking for. Yes, it's alot more work than bolting on a fin...but it's a better alternative in my opinion.
It's not just the light weight of cold molding the boat...it's that she has a bottom that's easy to shove.
Good to know that monofilament on the dock trick is alive & well. Ours fell off a while back...need to get it back up.
Nice looking job. With those built in reverse chines you should not need to add spray rails (add on chines). That's pretty much redundant if you do.
You have a very nice bottom, sir.

Jay Lancaster replied to PeterP's topic in B & B Yachts ForumWhere will you be staying? Remley's Point is a good ramp with plenty of parking. Shem Creek is popular, but parking is a bear. There are other public ramps...just depends on where you are going to be.
The Sincerest Form of Flattery
Jay Lancaster replied to PapaFoxtrot's topic in B & B Yachts ForumAgreed. The styling cues are common...and just like the lines of a Carolina hull, there's only so many ways to integrate a bracket.

An other OC20 build !!
Jay Lancaster replied to Lotus's topic in B & B Yachts ForumIt's almost spooky it's so good...
. This is what I've seen done countless times. Thanks. I mentioned this a while back on another boat building forum and was blasted for even suggesting that any faring material go under the glass. I shook my head & kept quiet (which is a struggle for me...).
What is the consensus when it comes to fairing the wood before glass? I know some guys do it...the wood is easy to fair down, and you're not taking much.

Oregonian Marketing
Oregonian Marketing, the marketing arm of The Oregonian, offers a full suite of digital advertising and marketing services. Unfortunately, most businesses don't know it. To many, they're still just a dusty old newspaper with print ads.
So they brought us on board to create a print and digital campaign with clear, smart messaging to begin telling a new story.
First we interviewed key players on The Oregonian's sales staff to learn what pitches had been working best for them in the field. That provided the core of the concept we developed further.
The messaging centered around a few common misconceptions about Oregonian Marketing. One, that they didn't offer digital services at all. Or that they didn't have advanced digital marketing tools with experts who know how to use them to get results. And they wanted to call attention to their own success in the digital space, since their customers leverage the same tools and expertise.
The tone of the campaign was a departure for the company. In the past, they'd relied on dry, just-the-facts ads that failed to move the needle. This time they let us move in a different direction, adding some sly humor and even a little swagger.
We produced five versions each for print and digital display. The final ads were built using ad styles we'd developed for them previously.
OOH, radio scripts and promotional emails are planned for future development.
"They were a collaborative, strategic and thoughtful team. Thanks to Medicine Show's efforts, traffic has gone up 800% month over month."
— Chris Hammond, Marketing Director

Search Help: In Force and Repealed
This screen enables you to search consolidated in force and repealed legislation. These databases are partitioned into three major types of legislation: Acts, Regulations etc, and Environmental Planning Instruments (EPIs).
Before searching, you should first select the database and types of legislation you wish to search by selecting the appropriate check box/es in the area under "What do you want to search over?" The default search selection is over the "Acts in Force" and "Regs etc In Force" databases.
There are two forms of searching, the most commonly used being the Standard search. The two forms of searching operate exclusively and separate search buttons are provided for that reason. (The Advanced search feature is for more specialised searching using Command Control Language. Boolean operators should not be used in the Standard search.)
The Standard search has a range of pre-defined search fields that are listed below and it also enables you to search over the text or title of legislation and to limit your search to a particular year and/or instrument number.
These fields enable you to limit your search as follows:
exact phrase
will find only those documents that contain those words as a phrase.
all of the words
will find provisions in documents that contain all of the words that you enter in this field. For example, this search can be used to find documents with sections or other provisions that contain all of the words "offence", "penalty" and "defence".
any of the words
will find those documents that contain any one of the words that you enter in this field.
without the words
will find provisions in documents that do NOT contain the words that you enter in this field. This field is often used in combination with the other fields, for example to find sections or other provisions in documents that contain the word "offence" but not the word "imprisonment".
You can enter words into all or some of the input fields shown—the search will take them all into account.
The search fields are not case sensitive and do not require quotation marks around words or phrases.
The wildcard characters "?" (any number of characters) and "#" (exactly one character) can be used in all fields except exact phrase - see Advanced search.
Search in
The "text" and "title" selections cause the search to be applied to either the text of documents or to legislation titles.
Note. A "title" search covers the official titles of legislation, not the titles of Chapters, Parts, Schedules etc.
Limit search to year/number will apply the search to instruments assented to or made in that year, or with that instrument number.
If you want more control over your searching, you can use the Advanced Search option. It requires queries to be entered using the Common Command Language (CCL)—an international standard for text queries.
Please note that the Search scope that you have selected with the checkboxes under the "What do you want to search over" field DOES apply to the Advanced Search.
Note also that if you type a query into the Advanced Search field, then no other field will be taken into account, except the search scope, ie the types of legislation you chose to search under the "What do you want to search over?" field.
Advanced Search options such as Boolean operators and proximity queries will return results of documents that contain individual provisions (such as sections) that meet the search criteria. These types of Advanced Searches only apply at that provision level and are not applied to the document as a whole.
CCL features are outlined below
AND, OR, NOT can be used between terms.
For example jury AND district NOT sheriff
Using the syntax "FIELD=word", the search can be restricted to individual fields. Useful fields in this database include:
Text: The full text of the document.
Title: The title of the Act, Statutory Instrument etc.
ActNo: Act Numbers.
SRNo: Statutory Instrument Numbers.
EPINo: Environmental Planning Instrument Numbers.
Year: Year of Act, Statutory Instrument, EPI.
Heading: Text of all headings for Chapters, Parts, Divisions etc.
An example fielded search is Heading=certified and Text=appeal
Fielded searches are NOT available for the Search As Made or Search Bills.
? means any number of characters and # means exactly one character.
For example:
fee? would match "fee","feedlots","fees"
wom#n would match "woman" or "women"
If you want to search for two words near each other then the "%" character can be used to indicate the number of words you will allow between the two terms, whatever the order of the words.
If you want to search for words near each other in a particular order, then the "!" character can be used to indicate the number of words you will allow between the two terms.
For example:
right %3 appeal would find "right" and "appeal" within 3 words of each other, in any order.
right !3 appeal would find the words within 3 words of each other where "right" occurs before "appeal".
Parentheses can be used to group search terms.
For example, to find expressions such as the Corporations Act, Companies Act, Corporations Code or Companies Code use the following syntax:
(corporations OR companies) %3 (code OR act)
Similarly you can combine proximity and grouping searches. For example:
building %3 (code OR regulation) OR building !3 (code OR regulation)
would find "code" or "regulation" where occurring after "building".
To modify or refine your search, go back to the search screen or select search again. Your search criteria will show and can be modified and the search run again. To start a new search, click the clear button at top right on the search screen.

Philippa Allen, new B-Reel Films Executive Producer
– September 28, 2011 – International film production company
B-Reel Films
), announced today the formation of a new office in London in order to fortify its U.K. presence. To helm B-Reel Films' operations here, the company tapped Philippa Allen as Executive Producer. With the new office, B-Reel Films now features four offices spanning the globe, including Los Angeles, New York City and Stockholm. B-Reel Films works in close collaboration with digital production company B-Reel (
"The best creatives are to be found in London, and of course we want to be where the best work is," said Johannes Ahlund, managing director B-Reel Films. "We also see that the need for integrated productions in the U.K. continues to grow and as a global brand it's critical to establish our London office and cement our presence."
As the head of the new London office, Allen plans to introduce B-Reel Films as a TV commercial production company that can deliver film content of the highest quality. Part of this endeavor is to work hand-in-hand with sister company B-Reel to offer a heightened standard of integration between digital and film that is only just beginning to emerge in the U.K.
"It's a great thrill to join B-Reel Films at this time in the company's growth," Allen said. "B-Reel is already known in London for producing highly innovative digital work and they are respected for their creativity and business ethics. My goal is to create a commercials company that further enhances this reputation."
Prior to joining B-Reel Films, Allen was with Rogue Films in London for over four years. While there she worked with Charlie Crompton and David van der Gaag to develop Rogue into one of London's leading production companies.
Before working at Rogue, Allen worked with US production company Crossroads Films when they first established in London. Allen's career began as a freelance production manager working on independent features, short films and corporate films. This work gave her the necessary experience to grow from a marketing position into an executive producer role.
"I've had the luxury of being involved in all aspects of the business and to work creatively alongside talented directors," Allen said. "Moving from a traditional production company to an environment as cutting edge as B-Reel Films is a fantastic challenge for me. It's exciting to bring my knowledge of the London market to B-Reel Films, and very refreshing to be able to offer UK agencies a new pool of talent.
B-Reel Films' new office will be a separate entity of its own and therefore will include a brand new roster. Though the team is still being decided upon, Ahlund said they are hoping to sign a new London based director within the next month.
B-Reel Films is a film production company whose specialty is fusing traditional storytelling with cutting edge technique on all platforms. But as great as the latest technique can ever get, it's nothing without a thorough understanding of how to dramatize a story in a way that moves the audience. Our people have been in the business of doing just that for the past 15 years producing award winning commercials, drama series and feature films.
B-Reel Films' global director roster includes Filip Tellander, Anders Forsman, Anders Hallberg, Tom Malmros, David Hicks, Nick Piper, Johan Perjus, Emil Moller, The Colony, Michael Marcimain, Jens Sjogren, Tomas Alfredson, Igor Zimmermann, Kristian Petri, Johan Kling, Patrik Bergh (Nordic), Brian Lee Hughes (Nordic), and StyleWar (Nordic).
B-Reel Films has offices in New York, LA, London and Stockholm.
Founded in 1999 with full service offices in New York, Los Angeles, London and Stockholm, B-Reel specializes in the field of advanced digital productions on multiple platforms including web, mobile and out-of-home media. They collaborate with partner B-Reel Films on integrated campaigns.
B-Reel Films is a traditional film production company.

Angelababy Slowly Getting Used to Motherhood: "I'm Much Happier"
By addy on January 19, 2018 in NEWS, TV Dramas
Huang Xiaoming (黄晓明) and Angelababy's son, "Little Sponge" hit his first year milestone on January 17. It's been a whirlwind year for Angelababy, who has not only kept up with her duties as a model and actress, but has also experienced motherhood for the first time.
The 28-year-old shared that "Little Sponge" is already learning how to call his parents. Although he learned how to say "mama" first, he couldn't stop saying "baba" after he learned how to "unlock" that ability.
It's been three days since Angelababy has last been with her son, and those three days felt like three years. "Because I've been in Shanghai filming, I got spend time with him everyday. But I'm in Beijing now, and it's been three days without him. It's not easy."
Asking if she has already accustomed to motherhood, the young actress said, "I'm getting there slowly. It's been pretty good so far. I feel that after having a child, you will naturally adapt to that identity."
Angelababy's mood and mindset hav also changed for the better. "I'm definitely a lot happier now. Watching a child slowly grow older each day will leave you feeling satisfied and blessed."
For Little Sponge's first birthday, Xiaoming and Angelababy hosted a small, private party back home. They gave Little Sponge a photo backdrop as his birthday gift, and he took photos wearing a suit and tie. Angelababy said, "Coincidentally both Xiaoming Ge and I were home, so we decided to dress a little nicer. We took a family portrait."
Pointing out that Little Sponge looks big for his age, Angelababy said, "I can still carry him well, but I heard from [Deng Chao] today that his child already weighed 20 jin (26 lbs) at five months, while [my son] weighs about 22 jin (29 lbs) now. He's quite average."
This year, Angelababy will make her debut in modern-era Chinese dramas, which includes the modern epics City of Desire <欲望之城> and Entrepreneurial Age <创业时代>. Both business dramas, Angelababy was asked about the differences between her roles.
"They are both pretty different," said Angelababy. "In Entrepreneurial Age, I play a girl who has been an achiever her entire life. In City of Desire, my character has a much more difficult life."
Angelababy's debut television drama is the 2015 historical period drama Love Yunge from the Desert <大汉情缘之云中歌>. Her second was General and I <孤芳不自赏>, released in 2017. Asking which setting she prefers to act in, she said, "It's easier for me to understand my character in modern dramas. It's harder to do that in period dramas."
Asking if there are are any other modern roles that she wants to do, Angelababy said, "Maybe we can do something more energetic, like a female hero."

Bangor RNLI rescue two boys trapped on rocks while fishing
It was just a routine exercise for Bangor's volunteer lifeboat crew on Sunday night until they got the call to rescue two young boys who were cut off by a rising tide at The Long Hole while fishing.
With assistance from HM Coastguard, the lifeboat was able to rescue the lads and return them safely to Bangor Marina. The incident took place on Sunday (17 July).
Bangor RNLI Volunteer Lifeboat Press Officer Peter Semple said, 'The crew and I were delighted to be able to put their training to use, particularly in such a rocky part of the coast. Although the boys were in no immediate danger, and their only concern after we got them back to dry land was that they got their fishing rods back, it is important for parents to explain the risks of being caught by a rising tide.'
Lifeboat crew on the callout were Helm Peter Semple with Dave Beale, Kat Lindsayand Alison Stobie.

Chrome's insane password security strategy • elliottkember
There's no master password, no security, not even a prompt that "these passwords are visible".
Any time I try to draw attention to this, I get the usual responses from technical people:
Just use 1Pass
The computer is already insecure as soon as you have physical access
That's just how password management works
While all of these points are valid, this doesn't address the real problem: Google isn't clear about its password security.
In a world where Google promotes its browser on YouTube, in cinema pre-rolls, and on billboards, the clear audience is not developers. It's the mass market - the users. The overwhelming majority. They don't know it works like this. They don't expect it to be this easy to see their passwords. Every day, millions of normal, every-day users are saving their passwords in Chrome. This is not okay.

Why You Shouldn't Let Google Chrome Save Your Passwords http://www.shellypalmer.com/2013/08/chrome-and-saved-passwords
Remembering passwords for multiple websites is incredibly annoying but it still might not be a good idea to let Google's Chrome browser remember them for you. Software developer Elliott Kember notes that it's incredibly easy for anyone to see the passwords you've stored on Chrome as long as they're using a computer where you've logged into the browser.
We're in the countdown days to the two big annual developer conferences (not counting OSCON, of course ...). Google I/O will open registration on March 27th, and if past history is any guide, WWDC should also start (and end) signups around the same week. So, get your credit cards warmed up and ready. Last year, both conferences sold out in less than a day (Google I/O in under an hour!).
Just what is the purpose of the Rube Goldberg-esque physical puzzle that has gone up on the Google I/O website. Does it have something to do with a puzzle that potential attendees will need to solve to register? Will attendees be flung around from session to session by giant pendulums? Is it all just a cool demo of Chrome? And does it have anything to do with ancient Mayan prophecies?
In any event, it's a fun (if simple) game, worth a few moments of your time, but unlikely to absorb more than 15 minutes of your attention. Now, if they added achievements and a Zombie mode, that might be something.
Reports of a successful exploitation against the Chrome sandbox appeared recently, and now word has broken that a new Java exploit not only breaks out of the sandbox, but manages to install itself into system memory, where it can mess around with privileged processes. Worse, unlike the Chrome exploit, which was reported to Google and not in the wild, this new Java hack is being actively distributed on popular Russian news sites.
Since the entire point of a sandbox is to keep malicious code from getting access to system resources, it is truly disheartening to see how frequently sandboxes are being penetrated these days. If there's one piece of code that needs to be rock-solid, it's the bit that keeps the bad guys from doing bad things. That it fails so often in reality either indicates that developers aren't doing a good job, or that it's a really hard problem and it may be time to rethink sandboxing as a valid security approach.
For those who have been eagerly awaiting Google's attempt to reinvent the wheel new programing language, Go, the wait is almost over, as RC1 has just hit the street. According to the developers, this is very close to what the final 1.0 release will look like. If you've been waiting for a stable version of Go to kick the tires, now is probably the time.
As with most new programming languages, I am maintaining a healthy degree of skepticism as to the long-term viability of Go. This is not because of any inherent faults of the language, but because of the institutional inertia that new languages have to fight to gain acceptance. Whether Google's influence will be enough to get Go ensconced in the pantheon of mainstream languages is yet to be seen.

I got a rude reminder of how dependent we've grown on ubiquitous telecommunications, as AT&T decided to take a sick day, cell phone service-wise. The outage only lasted an hour or so, but I suddenly found myself on the road with no way to call into a scheduled scrum standup (can it be a standup when you're sitting in your car?) and no way to email to let them know what was going on.
Total outages have been pretty rare, but it wouldn't take much from a solar storm perspective to knock everything offline, something I wrote about several years ago. Try to imagine modern society with no power, telecommunications or GPS navigation for a few days, and losing cell service for an hour gets put into its proper perspective.
Now that I'm back at home with a nice reliable fiber connection, I can give you the news of the week.
As was reported previously, Adobe is starting to gracefully put Flash out to pasture in favor of HTML5. The deathwatch took another step forward this week, with Adobe announcing that only Chrome will be able to run Flash under Linux in the future.
One could argue that Linux never was much of a market for Flash anyway, but following on the heels of the announcement regarding mobile support, it should be clear that Flash is on the way out. Flash was once considered the last best hope for seamless integration across desktop and mobile platforms, held back only by Apple's intransigence. Now, all eyes are on HTML5.
In the "developed world," software professionals spend a lot of time worried about intellectual property, career viability, privacy issues, and the like — our version of "first world problems." Once in a while, however, we get harsh reminders of the kind of real problems that can face a software developer in less-friendly circumstances.
Such is the case of Saeed Malekpour, an Iranian-born engineer and Canadian resident, who is currently facing a death sentence in Iran, accused of creating a pornographic network. According to most sources, the only thing that Malekpour actually did was to create a program that could be used to upload photos to websites, and that code had been incorporated into pornographic websites without his knowledge.
Malekpour confessed to running a pornographic network after a year in custody, a time when his supporters claim he was frequently tortured. What is certain is that very soon, if nothing is done, he will be executed, likely by being beheaded.
It's easy to write this off as a symptom of extremist ideology, but it should also serve as a wake-up call to open source and freelance developers who never plan to venture outside so-called "developed" countries. It is far too easy to imagine some hapless developer being dragged off to an undisclosed location because his or her software was found on the laptop of a jihadist. The problem with writing software is that you never know who may end up using it.
I just watched the "Nightline" report on Apple's production facilities, run by Foxconn in China. I'm sure that there's lots of righteous outrage afoot about the low wages (starting at $1.80 an hour) and cramped living conditions at the facility. I thought it was worth putting things in perspective, however.
To make it clear at the outset, I'm not in any way an apologist for China's government or social system. But I suspect you could find lots of people living in the U.S. willing to work for that wage, provided with lodging for $17 a month and a meal that cost about an hour's wage. As the report pointed out, the suicide rate at Foxconn is actually below the average in China, at 1.7 suicides per 100,000. For comparison, U.S. police officers experience 18 suicides per 100,000. And lest we become too indignant about factory accidents at the Foxconn facilities that killed more than two dozen in the past few years, we should remember that the U.S. doesn't have a shinning record in this regard either.
The point I'm making is that Apple makes an easy target because of its size and because some people want to make trouble for the company whenever they can. However, if we're going to attack Apple, let's do it for the right reasons. By most accounts, Apple is doing a much better job ensuring worker rights and safety than the industry as a whole.

Author: Jodi Lynn Anderson
Rating: 5/5 Stars
Genre: YA Fairy Tale Retelling
Publisher: Harper Collins
Publication Date: July 3, 2012
Hardcover: 292 Pages
Stand Alone or Series: Stand Alone
How did I get this book: Library
Format: Hardcover
Why did I read this book: I have been dying for a Peter Pan retelling that I actually enjoyed. I have read 3 others and disliked all of them. So I picked this up to give Peter Pan retellings one more shot!
Fifteen-year-old Tiger Lily doesn't believe in love stories or happy endings. Then she meets the alluring teenage Peter Pan in the forbidden woods of Neverland and immediately falls under his spell.
Peter is unlike anyone she's ever known. Impetuous and brave, he both scares and enthralls her. As the leader of the Lost Boys, the most fearsome of Neverland's inhabitants, Peter is an unthinkable match for Tiger Lily. Soon, she is risking everything—her family, her future—to be with him. When she is faced with marriage to a terrible man in her own tribe, she must choose between the life she's always known and running away to an uncertain future with Peter.
With enemies threatening to tear them apart, the lovers seem doomed. But it's the arrival of Wendy Darling, an English girl who's everything Tiger Lily is not, that leads Tiger Lily to discover that the most dangerous enemies can live inside even the most loyal and loving heart.
"To love someone was not what she had expected. It was like falling from somewhere high up and breaking in half, and only one person having the secret to the puzzle of putting her back together."
Peter is just so Peter in this book. If you read the original He isn't always the hero he is selfish, moody, and childish, and like any other pubescent boy he has a crush on all the girls, but, he also has his soft and fun side. I really enjoyed how dark this book got at times Peter hangs a pirate at one point there and a moment where the author alludes to a rape.
Some of the most powerful moments in this book revolves around Tick Tok who is Tiger Lily's adoptive father. He is gender fluid, he is loved, respected and revered by the rest of the tribe until a European is shipwrecked and saved by the tribe and poisons the minds of the village and turns them against Tick Tok and making him out to be sick and confused. I love Tick Toks character so much his story arc was breathtaking!
The writing of this novel was magnificent. Jodi Lynn Anderson has a way of communicating feelings and actions so simple, but with an undertone of deep meaning. The words and writing style is still with me over a week later I cannot get over it! If you are a fan of love triangles done right this is definitely for you. I may even call this a love web, there are a lot of feelings going on in wonderland but it is executed perfectly. You sympathize with Tiger Lily as she is betrothed to an awful man and with Tinkerbell when she longs for someone she cannot even communicate with!

I am sharing another story from someone who is dealing with cancer. This one not only made the medical profession take note, but it changed the opinion of the writer.
I used to think the talk about racism against aborigines was over rated and that it was all in peoples minds. I have lived in this country for ten years and have had my life disrupted by hate. But when I see the country and watch the news I think that aborigines have bought it all on themselves, they don't work they don't do anything, yet me I am an Indian man and I have to feel the hate all the time, people make fun of my faith, my accent and my people.
This country has a great medical system, anyone can get the help he needs you just go to the hospital. I did that when I had pains, I stayed in hospital for a couple of days while they ran tests. I had to put up with the jokes of me driving a taxi, I don't know why they would think I would find that funny, because I am an accountant. But I laughed and smiled. See nothing there to make me think aborigines have it bad.
I was in a room with another bed, into that bed came an elderly gentleman, he looked black, but then so do I. Then man who pushed this gentlemans bed in my room made a remark about his being the curry room. I thought I would be able to talk to the gentleman about this kind of talk and how it is not funny. That maybe that is the Australian way, they are always joking. But the gentleman didn't answer me in the way that I was expecting. He called me brother and said that while we are black brothers, he was aborigine. I admit I was annoyed that they put me in a room with one of them.
He talked to me, even if I didn't want to hear it. He had visitors which I didn't have and his visitors included me in everything, shared the biscuits, chocolates, they gave me one of the bunches of flowers to put on my side of the room. His grand daughter made me a get well card. The little boys and girls would talk to me about the kangaroos and koalas around their house. They told me storys about the animals.
I started to realise that my fear of them as a people was from what I saw on television and not my own experiences. I liked having this extra family around me, they welcomed me into their lives, it was fun. I was released from hospital with addresses and names. I went around to visit this gentleman, who insisted on calling me nephew. Nephew? I am not related but he was ready to include me in his family.
When the gentleman went into hospital, and he went in often as he was slowly dying from cancer. I would go in and spend time with him. He was wonderful to me and the least I could do was repay his kindness and love with my own friendship.
One day I went into him and visited, his daughter and wife were upset and arguing with the nurses on the ward. I felt a pit in my stomach, I thought my friend had passed away. But luckily he hadn't. He had been bed washed by a female nurse. Now I was confused at first, then aunty told me that as a man he couldn't have certain parts of his body touched by a female. I didn't think this was unusual, I thought of my family and out customs very similar, it is not the place of a woman to do this. I spoke to the nurse on behalf of the family. I was saddened to find out that the staff seemed to think that the family were being silly, there words. A nurse washing a patient was not unusual. I said politely that in the culture of the people that this was unacceptable and that it should not have been done.
I spoke to an aborigine worker at the hospital and told him what had happened. He was upset and said that this information was on Uncles file that no woman should do that. He said that the hospital flies the flag out the front, but does nothing to really help the people. He said this kind of racism happens all the time. I was more saddened by this news. I spoke to staff in the hospital and asked what would happen if a follower of muhumed came in with beliefs, I found out that they would call in the diversity people and follow the guidelines for that.
So why did my wonderful Uncle have to suffer the indignities of people who overlook his beliefs, who think that he is not worthy of respect for his beliefs.
My Uncle was very saddened and I believe that this incident hastened his demise.
So I ask if you have Aborigine people in your ward, please listen to them and accept their belief system is just as valid as your own.

Lunch / Dinner
Mediterranean Tuna Salad
Tuna salad is a perennial favorite, but it can be loaded with fat thanks to its typically creamy binders. Follow these swaps for less fat and calories.
Keep sodium levels in check by adding ingredients that are briny and tangy, like olives, capers, and lemon juice, rather than adding salt.
Whisk together mayonnaise and lemon juice.
Toss together tuna, scallions, bell pepper, and olives in a large bowl; mix in mayonnaise mixture until incorporated.
Divide tuna salad evenly over servings of salad greens.
To create a creamy binder with Mediterranean flavor, enhance olive oil mayo with fresh lemon juice.
Add flavor while keeping sodium levels in check by mixing in briny olives instead of seasoning with salt.
