Galitó-Cava, Javier
Ballet dancer turned actor. Born in Barcelona, Spain sometime during the 1970´s. He was raised in Lleida.

He moved to the United States in 1989 to continue his career as a Ballet dancer. In 1995 he retired from the stage as a dancer due to reasons he has kept private. He returned to the stage as an actor five years later and it is as such that he has made a name for himself. In 2001 he created Actors Anonymous SF Theatre Company and has produced and directed several plays. Javier also teaches Meisner Technique for actors around the world and is one of Rachael Steinberg-Adler's students. He is best know for his work as Molina in Kiss of the Spider Woman by Manuel Puig, Father Jackson Master S.J in Crucifixion by Terrence McNally and Ed in Breakfast with Scot by Michael Downing.

Bla Pahinui
James Bla Pahinui is the second oldest son of the legendary Hawaiian slack-key guitar player Philip “Pops” “Gabby” Pahinui. He started playing music at the age of ten when his Dad bought him a Martin ukulele and learned how to play the instrument from watching his Dad. As he grew older he joined in the backyard jams at their Waimanalo home and eventually joined his Dad on stage during the Hawaiian Renaissance of the 1970s.

The early Doo-Wop bands of the 50s are his primary influence (besides his Dad of course): Shep and the Limelights, Bobby Day and the Hollywood Flames, The Penguins, The Cellos, The Heartbeats, The Skyliners, and early Elvis. Also local groups: The Mop Tops, and the Kasuals. These groups instilled in him a strong love of harmonies and simple melodic lines.

From his Dad, Bla learned about Hawaiian music, the importance of strong rhythms and an appreciation for Latin music.

Bla’s style ranges from rhythm and blues, good-time rock and roll to soulful renditions of traditional Hawaiian favorites. Many remember Bla playing at the Sand Castle or Betty Reilly’s and bringing down the house with his versions of classic rock and roll tunes. Even today, when jamming, the songs will eventually turn to the old classics.

His two best-known songs are Moonlight Lady written by Carlos Andrade and recorded with his Dad and Waimanalo Blues written by Liko Martin and performed with Cyril and Martin Pahinui, Ry Cooder, Jim Keltner and David Lindley.

Over the years, he has had several bands (Jimmy and the Playboys in the early 60s) and played with many of Hawaii’s best musicians: Peter Moon, Palani Vaughn and the Brothers Cazimero in Sunday Manoa, with his brothers Cyril and Martin in the early 90s, Ledward Kaapana, Bernard Kalua, Dennis Kamakahi, and Mike Kaawa.

Ry Cooder's June 2005 release, Chavez Ravine, Bla Pahinui can be heard doing vocals on "Third Base, Dodger Stadium". Bla also plays guitar and ukulele on the album.

Tribler
Tribler is a social BitTorrent client developed by a research group from the Netherlands. It is based on the ABC BitTorrent client and distributed under the GPL licence. The goal of Tribler is to add a social community to file sharing networks. It has additional features so that people can identify eachother securely (permanent identifiers) and can help eachother with downloading (cooperative downloading). Furthermore, Tribler has a distributed recommender system (BuddyCast), that automatically selects torrent files that the user probably likes. BuddyCast selects peers with a similarity in download history, to recommend files that are probably your taste. Tribler also introduced merkle hash torrents. These torrent files do not have to include hash values of all pieces of a torrent file. Therefore, the size of merkle torrents are much smaller than original torrents.

Tribler has also additional software to distribute live video streams instead of files. The latest release of Tribler is version 3.3.6, which can be freely download from the website.

At 27 April 2006 the Tribler client project won the dutch Vosko Trophy for Business and Innovation. The technical details of Tribler are published in a paper, presented at the IPTPS conference.

Dorian shainin - on of founding father of six sigma
Dorian Shainin, an engineer who left his quality and reliability stamp on a host of products from lunar landers to automobiles to light bulbs over a 60-year swath, died on January 7th at the age of 85 in Manchester, Connecticut. The cause of death was heart failure.

When managers at Fortune 500 corporations and up-and-coming small businesses were confronted by quality/reliability problems that stumped them, they sought the counsel of Dorian Shainin. He founded the technical-problem-solving company, Shainin® LLC, that is widely respected today.

Shainin developed more than 20 statistical engineering techniques that became the core of the Shainin Systems for quality and reliability improvement. These systems have helped manufacturers solve quality problems they thought unsolvable. The Shainin techniques helped Motorola win the first Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award in 1989.

Ghosting (Band)
Ghosting was a gothic rock/darkwave band formed in 1989 in Germany. After the release of their seventh album, they split up in 2003. An unique element of their music was the usage of composition techniques known from classical music realized by the means of synthesizers rather than acousticmusical instruments.

Over the years, they developed some clearly distinguishable styles:


 * 1) Their Ambient works (1989-1991) are extraordinarily melancholic and monotone, comparable to early works of Coil, Dead Can Dance, and Fad Gadget. Not all of their early releases were solely Ambient. However, they released a gothic rock album called Romantic Death in 1992. This album was produced by Bruno Kramm from Das Ich.
 * 2) Their neoclassical songs  (1992-1994), where classical composition techiques melt with the modern sound of synthesizers and an electric guitar, were compiled on their album Songs From Fairyland (1994), and their instrumental album Enter My Crypt (1995), respectively.  Their interpretation of some of Gustav Mahler's works (e.g. Revelge) stresses their link to classical music.
 * 3) Their hits were released during their commercial time (1995-1996) on their albums Lips Like Red, and L'etat c'est moi, resp.
 * 4) Finally, in their Techno influenced songs (2000-2003) were released during the last years of their existence.

Kurmangazy Field
Located in the central part of the Caspian Sea near maritime border between Russia and Kazakhstan, the Kurmangazy field (formerly known as the Kulalinsky field) is the least developed of Kazakhstan's upcoming oil and gas developments. In July 2005, however, Russia and Kazakhstan signed a new $23 billion production sharing agreement for the Kurmangazy field. After some delay, the Russian and Kazakh state oil firms Rosneft and KazMunaiGaz signed the deal in the hopes that this would expedite the field's development. The agreement delineates the Kazakh and Russian sectors of the Caspian seabed and defines the development of Kurmangazy and two other disputed offshore fields that are situated near the Kazakh/Russian border.

The Kurmangazy field has an estimated area of 380 square kilometers. Geologists estimate that the Kurmangazy field contains up to 45.5 billion barrels of oil, of which 4 to 13 billion barrels will be recoverable. As a result, this field is expected to produce up to 600,000 barrels per day in the next decade. Production from the Kurmangazy field will be exported through the CPC and BTC pipelines. In addition to associated gas, geologists expect discoveries of gas lenses during development.

Thomas James (explorer)
Thomas James was a sea captain and explorer from England. In the years 1631 to 1632 he sailed to Northeastern North America in search of the Northwest Passage. He wintered on Charlton Island, a small island in the south of James Bay in the south of the Hudson Bay. During the same year, Captain Luke Foxe, also of England, set out to find the same passage, but traveled back before Winter. After suffering hardships in the Canadian winter, James finds that there is no northwest passage south of 66 degrees, and argues that the ice, extreme cold, and unsuitable winds make such a passage useless compared to the traditional route to asia around South America. He tells his story in The Strange and Dangerous Voyage of Captain Thomas James, printed in 1933.

Stacey McClean
Stacey McClean (born on February 17, 1989 in Blackpool, Lancashire) is a former British musician and actress, most known as a former member of S Club 8. At the young age of 12, Stacey audition and was chosen to be part of S Club 7's support act on their S Club Carnival Tour and was to only perform on one of their concert shows. Stacey and the rest of the group soon found out that they would be appearing as support acts for the entire tour. Which lead to becoming an actual music group and releasing their own single.

In 2004, Stacey and the rest of S Club 8, starred in BBC's televison show I Dream. Unlike some of the other cast members, Stacey was shown in many scenes during episodes and was even fortunate enough to have her own storyline in one episode of I Dream, Together. This showed that not only could Stacey sing but has potential to be a fairly good actress.

Although the public hasn't heard much of Stacey since S Club 8 disbanded in 2005, Stacey is still being prised for her amazing vocals. Many even think she had the best vocals in the group, as well as being one of the better dancers. Stacey also still keeps in touch with the rest of the S Club 8 dispite being one of the two former members living the furthest from the rest of the band.

Our Legend
The Legend of the Moon and Stars... and what they mean to PCMB              Once upon a time, not so long ago, in a mystical Park, there lived a Marching Band struggling to compete at a National level. Suddenly, their Director (Glen Adsit)noticed that the Marching Band always performed better at night. The Director began telling the Marching Band ,”Look for the moon ;reach for the stars.” The Director contacted one of the talented parents (Annette Smigell) a few days before their next National’s Competition ,and asked the parent to create a “banner” that the Marching Band could “reach for”inside the dome(since they wouldn’t be able to see the real thing).the parent, using a black king-size bed sheet, added a sparkling moon and stars to create the banner. The parent completed the task in time to inspire the Marching Band.That year (1990) was the first year that the Marching Band won Nationals. The banner is closely guarded by another parent and is hung every year (only at States and Nationals, when the Marching Band can’t see the real thing), and helps inspire the marching Band to always “reach for the moon and the stars”.

Deregulation in Australian Markets
What is Regulation? Regulation simply is the Governments involvement in different markets and in the tax system. If all markets were ‘free markets’ (working on the basis of supply and demand), some people would be considered to be disadvantaged. Therefore the Government intervenes to ensure there is a reasonable level of equality between all those within the country. The Government regulates and intervenes in a range of markets and systems including: •	The Labour Market •	The Financial Market, and •	Australian Tax System

All these area have benefited with a certain level of regulation and has allowed a reasonable amount of equality. This ‘equality’ concept is evident within the “Revenue Law: Cases and Materials” text book, this book states that “Political power is used to override economic power in order to distribute the products of society in a way which is considered ‘fair’ or ‘just’, according to the value system which is used in making the decisions.” This tells us that with a certain level of regulation a ‘fairness’ between all people is created.

Deregulation This occurs when governments slowly remove their level of control on the different markets and the tax system. As their level of intervention lessens the markets become more dependant on themselves to remain sufficiently equitable for all within the country. Labour Market

Centralised and Decentralised Wage Systems Essentially the difference between a centralised and decentralised wage system is the level of government control. Centralised: Within a centralised wage system the government and its industrial tribune (The Australian Industrial Relation Commission) determines award wages and working conditions for the employee. With this system employees doing the same jobs will receive the same wages. There is no variation to wages to anyone doing the same job. A centralised wage system has the following advantages: •	Lessens disputes over wages between employer and employee, •	Reduces unemployment by •	Lower levels of inflation •	Allows fairer distribution of income and profits between shareholders and employees.

Decentralised: In a decentralised wage system an employees wages and working conditions are determined through direct negotiations between the employer and employee. This process involves minimum government intervention. The current “Work Choices” economic reforms rely heavily on a decentralised system with anything but basic standards (eg.  long service leave, annual leave)   and is at the core of John Howard’s economic reforms.

The potential danger within a decentralised wage system is inequality between employees. Employee conditions of work is solely determined by their level of negotioation skills. For example two men doing exactly the same job for the same period of time may have different condition as one may have had previous experience in setteling agrements. It is also imortant to consider the relvant strengths of the parties to the negotiationms. A large enterprise negotiating with an individual, without Union support (illegal under “Work Choices”), is in a very strong bargaining postion from the start.

Moving Towards a Decentralised Wage System with each Successive Accord From 1983 to the present a number of Accords (an agreement between trade unions, the government, and employers to restrict wage demands, inflation and price rises respectively) have been passed which have affected the Australian worker and the wage system which they work under.

Stage 1 •	Accord Mark I (1983) this Accord noted that wage rises were directly linked to increases in the Consumer Price Index (CPI). •	Accord Mark II (1985) focused on superannuation and that wage rises were discounted by 2% of the CPI of the time. •	Accord Mark III (1987) a two tier system was developed a flat rate and second rate which was to be negotiated with the employer based on productivity. Negotiations for family allowance supplement began. •	Accord Mark IV (1988) award reforms, awards were reviewed and any wage increases were linked to efficiency and productivity. •	Accord Mark V (1989) built flexibility into awards and protected weaker groups by raising low rates of pay and also included tax cuts and welfare benefits for improvements in work practices.

Stage 2 •	Accord Mark VI (1990) beginning of enterprise bargaining (negotiations between employer and employee on pay and work conditions at the level of the individual firm) and the move to a more decentralised wage system and also reforms in training and education system.

Stage 3 •	Accord Mark VII (1993) enterprise agreements were used to determine wage increases. Employer and union agreements had to be accepted by the AIRC.

With each successive Accord the Australian wage system has become more and more decentralised. This shift has enable enterprise bargaining between employer and employee to take place.

Workplace Relations Act 1996 In 1996 the Howard Government introduced the Workplace Relations Act erasing the Industrial Relations Act established by the Labour Government in 1988. The Workplace Relations Act entailed a number of new ideas some which included:

•	The introduction of Australian Workplace Agreements (AWA’s) •	The wider use of enterprise bargaining agreements •	Restrictions on union activity, and •	Making it illegal to force employees to join the union (which was often used as a precondition to employment), With the passing of this act unions have had a smaller impact on employee awards and the move towards enterprise bargining agreements for all people through AWA’s has increased.

Benefits of Deregulating Labour Market Deregulating the labour market and filtering the level of government intervention has a number of benefits to the economy and employer: •	Wages can be determined by supply and demand leading to proper allocation of labour resources in different industries. •	Wage rates reflect the capacity of each industry and their ablity to pay and gain a resonable return. •	Any increases in wage must be linked to productivity. •	Inflation is reduced which reduces costs in the industry allowing exporting and importing industries to become more competitive in the international market, and •	Allows market to find appropirate level of minimum wage.

The most recent step in the move towards deregulation is Howards “Workchoice’s” legislation which was passed in 2005. Within this legislation Howard claims a number of benefits are available to employee.

Employees are protected under “Workchoices” by: •	The Australian Fair Pay and Conditions Standard •	The terms of their workplace agreement •	Their awards And gain the benefits of: •	Meal break entitlements •	Public holiday entitlements, and •	Extended parental leave entitlements Financial Markets

Financial Deregulation: When did it Occur?

Sir Keith Campbell established a committee in 1979 to examine the Australian financial system, and to recommend certain changes. It was the first such inquiry since the 1936 and covered a range of issues. His suggestions helped Australian economics. These changes were necessary in the increasingly complex nature of the financial system. This committee was named “Campbell’s committee of inquiry.”

Financial deregulation began in the early 1980’s under a Labor Government of Bob Hawke as Prime Minster and Paul Keating as Treasurer. This partnership used the ideas brought up by Campbell to help Australian economics.

Its main objective was to move away from regulating a range of financial activities to allow greater freedom to banks to respond to global competitive market signals.

Changes that occurred with Financial Deregulation

Since Federation Australia was a country that relied heavily on protectionist policies (tariffs, government regulations etc) as the basis for its economic and social development. This policy, while often questioned, was shown to be no longer effective in the more global environment of the eighties. As Bob Hawke states in his memoirs “Australia lay closed at its borders, the arteries of its financial life suffering from a sclerosis of regulation……..The world was kicking at Australia’s door; to stand there with our hands pressed against it was folly.”

Australia needed to change economically as to compete with the new global markets. One of the major changes that occurred during the financial deregulation was the floating of the Australian dollar in 1983. Before this Australia had a fixed exchange rate (fixed currency.) Floating the Australian dollar ment the movements in the dollar changed and reflected the strengths of trade at the time. There were those who were wary of losing total control of the Australian dollar. When these concerns were put to Bob Hawke he famously addresed them by saying “When you float the dollar, you float the bloody dollar!”

Other important reforms that were finacally deregualted in the 1980’s include: •	Deregulation of the stock market and incorporation of broking firms •	Entry of foreign banks, and •	Removal of controls on the interest rates banks could pay and charge, on the terms for which they could lend

Wallis Inquiry and Report

In May 1996 one of the first acts of the Liberal party’s Treasurer Peter Costello was to establish an enquiry to review the Australian financial system (latter known as the Wallis inquiry.) This inquiry led to some changes within the financial system these changes were implemented in April 1997 in the Wallis report.

The areas that were addressed in the Wallis report fell into three categories: the establishment of new regulators, mergers and acquisitions and dealing with electronic security.

New Regulators A number of new government commissions were suggested by the Wallis inquiry to allow the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) to focus on monetary policy and dealing with the banks. The new regulatory commissions established were the: •	Australian Prudential Regulation Commission (APRC) – dealing with superannuation, insurance and prudential regulation (reducing the possibility of risk) •	Corporations and Financial Services Commission (CFSC) - responsible for protection of the consumer, and •	Payments System Board (PSB) - focusing on systems of payment.

Merging and Acquisition The Wallis report stated that there should be certain limits in relation to the levels of ownership of financial institutions. Its states that a shareholder should not be able to own more then 15% of banking or insurance company./ This would have the effect of allowing a wide spread of ownership. This limitation would ensure that one person could not have too large a say in the running of a financial institution.

Electronic Security As technology is becoming more advanced new potential for security breaches could occur during financial transactions. One of the suggestions put forward by the report was to recommend the acceptance of digital signatures. These digital signatures would allow major institutions to verify authenticity in messages sent electronically.

Benefits of Financial Deregulation

As the financial market has been deregulated two major benefits have become evident:

•	The levels of competition have increased. As foreign banks are now allowed into Australia as well as the introduction of specialist providers more competition is found in the banking sector. This increase in competition has forced the lowering of interest rates from 1990 to today. This can be seen in the graph below taken from Reserve Bank of Australia Bulletin (2003), 'Banking fees in Australia'.

•	Growth of Economy. After deregulating the financial market the growth in the Australian economy was large. This included 13 consecutive quarters of growth above 4 per cent “the longest run of such growth recorded in the history of the quarterly National Accounts.”

This growth in the economy can be related to improvements in productivity and income growth, which are byproducts of the financial reforms. Government in the Economy

Functions of a Tax System Although the main aim of taxation is to provide revenue to fund government expenditure. There are also some important socio-economic purposes for taxation some which include are: •	The provision of merit and public goods – As private companies conclude these goods to be non-profitable. The government steps in to provide them with this goods i.e. education. The government pays for these goods via the money gained through taxation. •	The need for the government to support those for whom a free market would not provide for – For example the poor would not be able to pay the market price for many necessities such as food. The government therefore steps in and provides people with cash grants who cannot pay for basic goods and services. These grants come from the collection of tax. •	Correction of free market imperfections – Within a free market imperfection may occur such as a monopoly power or wasteful competition. However accelerating the rate of economic growth or maximizing economic stability through varying levels of taxation may help thwart these market imperfections allowing consumers better choice of products at reasonable prices.

Current Problems with our Tax System

Australia’s current tax system can be considered to have one major problem, its complexity. Within our system the public pay tax over all three levels of government for a variety of reasons both directly and indirectly. The major taxes collected over the different tiers of the government are:

Local Government - Rates

State Government - Land Tax - Stamp Duty - Payroll Tax - Motor vehicle registration

Federal Government - Income Tax - Customs Duty - Passport fees, and - Goods and Services Tax (GST)

This three tiered government taxes system is considered too complex and may lead to confusion to the general public.

Tax Reform In 1999 under Howard’s Liberal Government, legislation was passed which was intended to simply the Australian tax system. A cornerstone of this legislation was the GST. This was a tax aimed at taxing most goods and services. (an example of an indirect tax). Howard claimed when the GST was introduced, the Australian Tax system would become simpler. He claimed that the state governments would remove their Stamp Duty and Payroll Taxes (both direct taxes) and allow GST to take its place. The Federal Government would ensure that, net of administration costs, the full amount of GST collected would be provided to the States. However the State Governments did not remove all their direct taxes. This meant that when the GST was introduced the ideal goal of Parliament was not achieved. In a real sense, the tax system became even more complex, adding to the confusion of the tax payer.

Social Problem with Tax Systems in General Using tax to help maintain government policy and to help gain revenue also has some problems that relate to the social engineering side. There are three major problems in tax that affect social engineering:

1.	The general categorisation – Tax rule is created under general terms and applies to broad groups of people who are all treated the same way. However the tax system is not well suited to deal with unique individuals i.e. an individual employee. This inadequacy to deal with uniqueness may lead unfair levels of taxation for different people. 2.	Unpredictability of taxes effectiveness – As tax is an indirect instrument it is often difficult to determine how effective a tax will be at achieving its goals. If it cannot achieve its goal it is simply draining money away from the consumer and weakens the economy. 3.	Side Effects of Tax - Tax is also said to create some unintentional side effects. For example high levels of income tax may lower the incentive to work as the money gained from working would be lost through tax. It is also suggested that excessive amounts of tax may impact on the amount of babies being born. As parents hold off on children until they have more money.

Changes in Recent Years to Tax System Most post-war Governments have made an attempt to “reform” their tax system. The main reform in Australian tax of recent was the GST legislation as mentioned above. As I believe I have covered GST effectively I will move on. In 1985 Bob Hawke and Paul Keating introduced the Capital Gains Tax (CGT) this tax was aimed at taxing the capital gain made on the disposal of any asset (e.g. the selling of a rental property), except those with specific exempt status. This tax stoped people avioding tax through a specific loophole.

Benefits of Changes in Tax System

GST as a tax has a number of benefits. As it is an indirect tax through the purchasing of goods and services it creates a horizontal equity (everyone is treated the same) e.g. if two people buy an apple each for $1 they both pay the same amount of tax on it and it is not dependant on the different monetary or social factors of the payer. Economically speaking GST is also a benefit to the government. If the Consumer Price Index (CPI) rises the cost of goods rise as well, this in turn gives the governments more revenue through the increased prices.

CGT as a tax system change also created some benefits. The main benefit gained was that people could no longer avoid paying tax by changing their income stream into capital. As the disposal of capital was not taxed up to this point. This system allowed a more fair system of taxation with fewer loopholes for people to avoid paying tax. This gave a social equity among the tax payers.

Bargi
During 1750, Bengal was faced with invasions from Bargis from Maharashtra. These bargis will loot the people and destroy the crops. This was done to weaken the enemy morals before raising full fledged attacks by the kings who will support the groups of Bargis. Bargies were essentially different armed force units than regular soldiers and will raise occassional attacks in the enemy territory to creat havocs.

Famous couplet of a Bengali cradle song, created by Oriya and Bengali people while making their babies sleep at night.

"Chhele ghumalo para juralo Bargi elo deshe

Bulbulite dhan kheyechhe khajna debo kise?"

'Hushed the child sleeps and quiet is the neighbourhood now, for the Bargis (Maratha raiders) have descended on our land; the bulbulis have eaten away our crops, how shall we pay our land tax?'

What is a Smart Card?
What is a smart card? The term Smart Card is loosely used to describe any card with a capability to relate information to a particular application such as magnetic stripe, optical, memory, and microprocessor cards. It is more precise, however to refer to memory and microprocessor cards as smart cards. ·	A magnetic stripe card has a strip of magnetic tape material attached to its surface. This is the standard technology used for bank cards. ·	Optical cards are bank card-size, plastic cards that use some form of laser to write and read the card. ·	Memory cards can store a variety of data, including financial, personal, and specialized information; but cannot process information. ·	Smart cards with a microprocessor look like standard plastic cards, but are equipped with an embedded Integrated Circuit (IC) chip. Microprocessor cards can store information, carry out local processing on the data stored, and perform complex calculations. These cards take the form of either "contact" cards which require a card reader or "contact less" cards which use radio frequency signals to operate. Key Features and Characteristics Shown below are some of the key features and characteristics of smart cards.

Cost Typical costs range from $2.00 to $10.00. Per card cost increases with chips providing higher capacity and more complex capabilities; per card cost decreases as higher volume of cards are ordered.

Reliability Vendors guarantee 10,000 read/write cycles. Cards claiming to meet International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO) specifications must achieve set test results covering drop, flexing, abrasion, concentrated load, temperature, humidity, static electricity, chemical attack, ultra-violet, X-ray, and magnetic field tests.

Error Correction Current Chip Operating Systems (COS) perform their own error checking. The terminal operating system must check the two-byte status codes returned by the COS (as defined by both and the proprietary commands) after the command issued by the terminal to the card. The terminal then takes any necessary corrective action.

Storage Capacity EEPROM: 8K - 128K bit. (Note that in smart card terminology, 1K means one thousand bits, not one thousand 8-bit characters. One thousand bits will normally store 128 characters, the rough equivalent of one sentence of text. However, with modern data compression techniques, the amount of data stored on the smart card can be significantly expanded beyond this base data translation.)

Ease of Use Smart cards are user-friendly for easy interface with the intended application; handled like the familiar magnetic stripe bankcard.

Susceptibility Susceptible to chip damage from physical abuse, but more difficult to disrupt or damage than the magnetic stripe card.

Security

Smart cards are highly secure. Information stored on the chip is difficult to duplicate or disrupt, unlike the outside storage used on magnetic stripe cards that can be easily copied. Chip microprocessor and Co-processor supports DES, 3-DES, RSA or ECC standards for encryption, authentication, and digital signature for non-repudiation.

it is often surprising what ingredients with e nos etc. are made of both good and bad and although it is not so often prime time discussion as it was a few years ago (some of the bits in pringles (di-sodium ribo-nucleotides, produced largely from sardine and found in stacks of stuff) and insect bits in skittles (shellac, produced by indian lac insects for a special shine!) in skittles really i still like to check all the labels that arent straight forward without first eating the product as you please but the interesting thing is that searching turns out the end result of these products use (especially on mice and rats if you read google!) or its chemical formula (just try additives on wikipedia) but the original basic thing that additive was called and made of is often hard to find. i eat lots of food but search that ingredient and it might say "ox tail is usually a cows bumpiece". if you do not list at least one source your article will be rejected. http://www.google.com and search for "shellac" and go to the shops to check the skittles ingredients. or search for "di-sodium ribonucleotides" which sounds like a chinese vitamin and turns out to be salt of sardine(miniature fishes)and is found in a stack of products including pringles.

Christian Konrad Sprengel
Christian Konrad Sprengel (* 22. September 1750, Brandenburg an der Havel, Germany; † 7. April 1816, Berlin, Germany) was a german theologist, teacher and, most important, a naturalist. He discovered sexuality in the plant kingdom.

Sprengel studied theology in Halle, Germany. In 1774 he became teacher in Berlin. Since about 1787, Sprengel did considerable research on the pollination of plants and the interaction between flowers and their insect visitors. With his work "Das entdeckte Geheimnis der Natur im Bau und in der Befruchtung der Blumen" (Berlin 1793), he was one of the founders of pollination ecology as a scientific discipline. Together with one of his predecessors, Köhlreuter, he is still the most classic author in this field.

During his lifetime, his work was neglected, not only becuse it seemed to a lot of his contemporaries as obscene that flowers had something to do with sexual functions, but also because the immanent importance of his findings on the aspects of of selection and evolution was not recognised. Until Charles Darwins book "On the various contrivances by which British and foreign orchids are fertilised by insects, and on the good effects of intercrossing." (London 1862), floral ecology was not considered a 'proper science'.

Important successors like Paul Knuth, Fritz Knoll and Hans Kugler were inspired by Sprengel and brought great advance to the field of pollination ecology. After the second World War, their work was continued by and Stefan Vogel, Knut Faegri, Leendert van der Pijl, Amos Dafni, G. Ledyard Stebbins as well as Herbert and Irene Baker.

The ideas and terms inherited out of Sprengel's fundamental work last forth.

Sprengel is buried at the Invalidenfriedhof in Berlin, Germany. A small monument designed after the frontispice of his fundamental work can be seen in Berlin Botanical Gardens.

The Intrepid Fox Pub
Britain’s first foreign secretary, Charles James Fox, founded the Intrepid Fox pub in 1784. It is said that he promised to give a free beer to anyone who offered him electoral support.

The Intrepid Fox is a pub that is popular with locals and tourists visiting the capital and is given a mention in tourist guidebooks as a place to visit. During most recent years it has been seen as one of the few remaining havens for fans of the metal, goth and rock culture of London and is said to have played an important part in rock history over the years.

Despite it being one of London’s oldest pubs, it is facing closure after the owning brewery Mitchells & Butlers recently sold the property to developers, who wish to turn it into a series of trendy flats. According to manager Patrick Begent, who has been running the establishment for 15 years, he was given just three weeks in order to vacate the place. He says, "Its devastating. The Fox is an integral part of the alternative music scene in London and one of the few remaining."

The Intrepid Fox is just one in a whole group of 21 pubs across the city that Mitchells & Butlers sold last month for a total of £53 million. The vast majority of the 21 pubs have been bought by individual property investors, although only two of the 21 sites are expected to be turned over to alternative use. The sale, which was revealed exclusively by the Morning Advertiser, means the company has already raised £88m in total in the year to date through individual pub sales - more than the £70m the company promised earlier in the year. A Mitchells & Butlers spokeswoman said: "The Intrepid Fox has been sold as part of a package to investment companies and pub operators. The 21 pubs were all prime locations but quite small, with average weekly sales of £7,000. The rest of our pubs have average weekly sales of £16,000." Mitchells & Butlers chief executive Tim Clarke said the sale value indicated property investors were valuing cash generative and asset-backed pub investments in a new way. He said: "There is a new breed of property investor coming in and buying pubs.” Mitchells & Butlers have also stated that discussions relating to the sale of 101 smaller, wet-led pubs are in progress. The news on disposal activity came as Mitchells & Butlers revealed that it was to launch a bond issue to increase securitised debt by £655 to £2.46m. The average value of pubs subject to a securitisation is now £2.8m, 40% higher than in 2003. A revaluation of the company's estate has put the total value of the company's property at over £5.5bn. In a bid to retain the pub, Robin Canon, a regular for the past two years, has launched a campaign. He wrote a petition and managed to inspire 5,000 people to sign their signatures in just nine days. "This pub has character and it makes you feel welcome, whatever your appearance," says Canon. "Its closure will mean sanitisation of the city's pub scene and loss of cultural diversity, which is important to London's development. The Intrepid Fox has been a central point for the London alternative scene for years. It's well loved and if it goes the currently small community will defiantly be badly affected - there's not that many other places for us to go - and certainly nowhere like the Fox. " But the "spirit of the Fox will live on", said Mr Begent, who plans to relocate the pub to another venue elsewhere. "We'll ensure the Fox survives the hunt."

Jennifer Convertibles
Jennifer Convertibles, Inc. (AMEX: JEN) operates and licenses a chain of specialty furniture stores in 19 states plus the District of Columbia. It addition to being the largest specialty retailer of sofabeds in the country, it is also Americas largest leather specialist. Jennifer Convertibles, Inc., was incorporated in 1986 and began operations with a single retail store in Paramus, NJ. It currently operates almost 200 stores coast to coast. Their marketing strategy is to highlight the multi-functionality of a sofabed, which acts as a sofa for seating comfort in the daytime and converting into a bed, for overnight guests. As America’s largest sofabed specialist they are able to offer all this to the consumer for unbelievable value. A great example of this is their Microfiber sofabed with an innerspring mattress for only $299. To expand their livingroom offerings they recently began selling motion furniture, which include dual reclining sofas and reclining chairs, all at similar promotional prices.

Clean Air Conservancy
The Clean Air Conservancy (CAC) is a not-for-profit environmental organization based in the United States that was founded in 1992 as INHALE (National Healthy Air License Exchange) by Cleveland lawyer David B. Webster. The organization’s stated goal is to promote market-based approaches to the problems of air pollution, acid rain, and global warming. The CAC uses donor funds to purchase and then retire tradable emission allowances and reduction credits, and has developed the legal instruments allowing US companies to make tax-deductible contributions of emission allowances and certified reductions to the CAC. Shortly after its founding, the CAC was recognized by Outside magazine as a “Mighty Might” - one of the ten “best” small environmental non-profit organizations. By participating in the first annual air pollution allowance auction in the United States (March 1992), the CAC began buying and permanently retiring a portion of the Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) emission allowances sold by the Chicago Board of Trade on behalf of the US EPA Acid Rain program. The EPA Acid Rain Program was world’s first mandatory “Cap-and -Trade” pollution allowance program and it allowed the CAC to pioneer the concept of “retiring” tradable allowances as a tool for reducing harmful air pollution.

The CAC supported air pollution education and published a curriculum in 2003 called Clean Air Activities: Exercises for a Cleaner Tomorrow through Humanics Learning. The organization also built a national network of schools regularly buying allowances to offset each participating school’s “SO2 footprint”. The CAC also established a pilot program of community-based monitoring and reporting of ground-level ozone using a network of trained volunteers with hand-held detectors. This pilot program was later duplicated in other US cities, including Atlanta, Buffalo, Dayton, Houston, Los Angeles and Minneapolis.

In 2001, the CAC collaborated with the Olympic Organizing Committee (OOC) on the first major “event greening” by assisting the OOC to calculate the environmental impact of the Salt Lake City Winter Olympic Games. The CAC then worked with several large U.S. corporations to donate and retire enough Sulfur Dioxide (SO2), Nitrous Oxide (NOx), and Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emission reduction credits to completely offset, or “Net Zero”, the air pollution and greenhouse gas generated by the event.

In 2006, Clean Air Conservancy initiated an expanded “NETZERO” program to put emerging Carbon trading platforms within reach of individuals, civic groups, and schools. It also began selling CO2 equivalent Emission Reduction Credits through its website and enables individuals buy and retire credits to voluntarily offset the CO2 emissions of their private automobiles, air travel and small boats.

The CAC is also a participating member of the Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX) and began buying and retiring Carbon Financial Instruments (CFI). Each of the CFIs represents 100 Metric Tons of third-party certified CO2 equivalent emission reduction credits sold in the United States. The CAC has also established an “e-store” on eBay to sell emissions reduction credits and allowances for Carbon Dioxide (CO2), Nitrous Oxides (NOx), and Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) to individuals for retirement.

School bus stop sign
A school bus stop sign is a mechanical device used for safety when a stopped school bus is loading or unloading children. The first school buses to have them had a single sign with a warning message, usually "stop." Lights were later added to the stop sign, early signs had each light blinking once each time, but many now have lights that blink twice at a time instead. Also, older buses usually have a single sign. Many newer buses have a second sign toward the rear, as well as the front. The most recent improvement was making it so the word "stop," written on the sign blinked instead of separate lights. Also, on the rear sign, the message was usually removed from the front, but remained on the back, which couldn't be seen unless the sign swung out. Even the newer signs with blinking warnings have the writing removed on the front of the rear sign.

Enchanted Dream Car Club
Enchanteddrmzceo 22:21, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

•About Enchanted DreamZ... • Enchanted DreamZ is a Car & Bike Club founded on December 2000 in Miami, Florida by a boy who was 17 years old at the time, Dimitris "The Dream Boy" Labatos. We are a club that accepts Lowriders, Imports, Lowrider Bikes, & even Classics. We also accept stock cars and give our members time to hook up their ride. ENCHANTED DREAMZ travels to different local cities depending on the chapter presidents, to compete and show-off our lowrider bikes & our cars. Our club colors are Blue & White as we show them off through shirts, hats, banners, ETC. We are always looking for members & chapters, so if your intrested in any information just check out our contact page. At this time, Enchanted DreamZ has 4 chapters (Miami, FL; Ft. Lauderdale, FL; New Iberia, LA; & Orlando, FL ) & has 17 members.

•The Story on how it all Started... • In the early months of 2000, Dimitris was looking around for a car club to join. Dimitris had the idea to customize his 1994 Nissan Sentra. He came about a childhood friend (Ralph) in October 2000 and both attempted to start a club called "Wicked Ryders". After a couple of weeks, the club was abandoned and Dimitris went on the road to search for a club to join. When searching, he saw that many clubs didn’t let anyone join the club unless their car was in showroom condition and the member had to go to a meeting every week. So, Dimitris didn’t like the idea of that and wanted to start his own club that would let people join the club with their ride stock and would give them time to customize it.

On December 19, 2000, Dimitris was thinking of a name for the club when he was listening to Power96© (radio station in Miami) and heard a commercial from Santa’s Enchanted Forest©. He liked the word, Enchanted, so he thought about which word would sound good together with Enchanted. He tried the word, Dreams but with a "Z" instead of the "S". That same day, Dimitris asked several friends including Cynthia Cuevas of Naples, FL., what they thought of the name.

Four days later on December 23, 2000, Dimitris "The Dream Boy" Labatos and Yoniel Boza got the process started & officially establish the club becoming the first members of the club & registering with the National Lowrider Club Registry.

Lola Rodriguez says, about her poem Manhatt/Antilles:

This poem is about voluntary repatriation, but most importantly, self-patriation, a return to the country of the self. For the New York Puerto Rican, there’s one special wave where the mainland and island meet in the divided soul.

Picture this secret place, far out to sea, located somewhere between where Lady Liberty drowned herself, the Bermuda Triangle, and a glorious Spanglish speaking Atlantis. Manhattan. Antilles. ManhatAntillas.

MANHATTANTILLES/MANHATANTILLAS

Manhatantillana que soy that I am, Whose expatriate, exiled sounds Shout from my lips In gasps of half-heard freedoms made word, Escupo mudo, Mute spit.

Whose voice is extinguished Behind the deaf bars of my teeth, A voice that sings to the people, Without reply.

My feet without ground, Like air-less wings These songs have No place to belong. They stretch between Two islands like the hangman’s rope Assassinating my soul With the authenticity of death, A clothesline with souls flapping Above the invisible place Between,where the Caribbean Sea And the Atlantic Ocean meet.

An ocean within That swallows my words, That silences my voice With a wave, a tongue, Then another. Manhatantillas, Can be found at the top of a wave, Since there is no shore where oceans meet. Voices sinking to the bottom, Rising to the top, Where the mouth of the sky Will form syllables for the wind.

The night, too, will form lips. Mixing its disowned and desired sounds Into creole beauty  noise Blending shouts With longing.

El oceano que traga mi voz Con una ola, una lengua Y otra. El oceano que corta la lengua en tiras, El oceano que hace trizas de la alma.

The ocean that swallows my voice With one wave, a tongue, Then another. The ocean that slices my tongue, Manhatantillana que soy. The ocean that shreds my soul.

In addition to her work as a performing artist, the writer is also known for her prose and text-bound poetry, exemplified in the following poem beginning with a quotation from F. Scott Fitzgerald’s This Side of Paradise.

PRINCETON FOUNTAIN

…Well this side of Paradise!... There’s little comfort in the wise. --Rupert Brooke.

If I miss the last train, will the drunken boat still hold me? The distant carillon of Cleveland Tower peppers the air with bells. I am looking to return to earlier chaos with new equations. “Is late Picasso, bad Picasso?” is not a question asked on the other side of the wall. In Prospect Gardens, I study multiple reflections of my face In the fountain, beneath the watery centaur spring. The ripples, jets, and depths do not disguise Conflicting golden eyes, A double lens, With tomes and goblets in the left, tenements in the right.

My third eye, developing A shutter opening against a double image of typology and contradiction, Uniting in a singularity of perfect vision, Gentility and rage, Infinity and limitation Semester of myself.

Does the flaccid bee drifting between the loose pine blades In the water of the Sculpture Fountain, Curl into death because the water is green And there is late summer musk in the air? On a submerged penny, the wavy, still lingering eye Winks because its fortune is not in season, The perfect sound of water slowly cutting the display of stone That the years have altered, giving motion as a gift to light, The sun diving to find the bottom of the pool.

And, on the surface, the wasp has come to drink, Yet, many are still searching for some source to quench their thirst. Leaves, and beetles and Aeschylus are fragments of the years hanging, Watery chatelaines on the garment of time. Fashionable semester.

On moving day, rental trucks burst with essentials, Caravans of comfort to what is already verdant, Could soon become desert (the wasp has come to drink). What oasis necessary to form the future’s mass?

The stage manager choreographs The tattered couches into position. On the manicured green, Just beneath the castle windows of shadowing towers, Watchful medieval rabbits, feral deer In a tapestry of hopeful scholars. It is the semester of the first act.

I stray from the season of my path, the blossom-fluted garden Not yet amber, evergreen and flat top canopy, Silence trumpeting the elephant leaves, I have No name for flowers which bring me closer to the moment That releases me, Infant who would be cultivator or keeper of the spirit’s peace.

Minutes pass at the perimeter of moss, of granite, Where falling water is thought traveling Between personal histories and the stories of civilizations, Where the Self confronts millennia, Dilutes fortune to build substance, constructs possibilities; These are the gardens of epics I will build, (There) I will meet you at the edge of this fountain where I loved myself, Where history is polite, but not suspended. Semester of my soul.

Kurt Seligmann
Swiss-American Surrealist artist, born Basel 1900, died Sugar Loaf, New York, USA, 1962.

Seligmann came to Paris in 1929 determined to pursue a career as an artist after several unsatisfying years working in his father's furniture store in Basel, Switzerland. In Paris, he met other Swiss, such as the painter-architect Le Corbusier (with whom he travled to Greece), the sculptor Alberto Giacometti (with whom he had studied in Geneva), the artist Jean Hans Arp, and the art historian Pierre Courthion. Through them he became acquinted with the group called Abstraction Art Non Figuratif, whose ranks he joined with works that showed a tendency toward biomorphism but with a menacing character. From these he grandually evolved a style that was increasingly baroque with imagery derived from Medieval pagentry, the Basel Carnival he had known since childhood and the Dance Macabre of such Germanic artists of the Reformation as Urs Graf and Manuel Deutsch. His mature work combined these influences with a particular violent expressiveness depicting slender figures adorned with all the paraphernalia of the heraldic knight errant: plumes of feathers, armor, swashbuckling drapery and capes, often adapted to stories of Greek mythology.

Seligmann married the former Arlette Paraf, a grandaughter of the founder of the Wildenstein Gallery, in 1935. In 1939, at the outbreak of World War II, he was the first Surrealist to settle in New York. He died of an accidental gunshot wound at his farm in Sugar Loaf, New York, on the morning of January 2, 1962.

INTERLOP
Some know this website as "Lol the internet" thats where it began, it only changed its name to interflop recently in spring of 2005. I was only a member on lol the internet for a short time under the identity of "fatty mchamburger" a name my friend thought up.

Some concider lol the internet to be one of the greatest websites in the world. Some despised it, main reason was because of its anti-semetic and crude humor. But I see it as a failed attempt to show the world a better more jew-hating internet. Interflop died recently at the end of the summer in 2006 but it lives on in every hitler loving nazi today.

Jasper Morello is a fictional character, and central protagonist, from the 2005 Australian animated feature film, The Mysterious Geographic Explorations of Jasper Morello.

History
According to the official website, of the Mysterious Geograhic Explorations of Jasper Morello, Jasper Morello's official ranks and positions, within the ABoC, include "Navigator, 3rd Royal Cartographers", and "Difference Engine Operator 2nd Class". Prior to his appearnace, within the film, Morello became married to Amelia, the sole surviving daughter of Admiral Fortinbras, and a Gothian nurse. At one point, during his career as a navigator, Morello had been installed upon the Airship, Resolution, under the command of Captain Otto Griswald. During one of the airship's journeys, through the Lawrencian Quarter, the Resolution was required to successfully navigate the nearby Weather Station 2C41; Jasper, however, made an accidental, one degree error, resulting in a collision with the complex, and the death of a crewmember (having being thrown overboard, from the force of the Resolution's impact). Subsequently, Morello was temporarily suspended from his duties, until, three months later, the ABoC chose to reprieve him, and re-assign him to the Resolution. Following the airship's initial departure from Gothia, the crew was assigned to deploy weather becons, en route to Lawrencia. During this time, Jasper became well acquianted with the Resolution's guest passenger, Doctor Claude Belgon (a scientist, assigned to to the ship, in order to discover whether certain altitudes of oxygen provided a cure, for the epidemical Magnetic Plague), and assisted him with a number of experiments. Following a heavy storm, the Resolution collided with the derlict fishing ship, the Hieronymous, and during the crews escape, from the doomed airship, Jasper lost his compass (and therefore, his means of navigation). After the discovery, that the Heironymous' deceased crew were fishing on an uncharted island, Doctor Belgon insisted that the crew investigate the fishermen's cause of death; later that evening, however, Jasper discovered that Amelia had become infected, with the Magnetic Plague. In a state of extreme desporation, Jasper attempted to turn the Hieronymous around, only to be held in place by the crew, and sedated by Doctor Belgon. Later, having regained his senses, Jasper successfully navigated the airship through a field of rocks, towards the uncharted island. After landing on the island, Jasper was attracted into a nearby forest, by a strange, siren-like bird call; upon finding the seeming-bird, emmitting the sound, Jasper approached it, only to have the creature transform, into a strange, arachnid monster. Jasper is nearly consumed by the beast, when it drags him towards itself with its branch-like tendrils, but is saved when his fellow crewman, Kovacs, kills the creature with a rifle. That night, the creatre's remains are cooked by the crew, and Jasper makes a broth out of the animal's blood, which he feeds to an ailing LeBrun (the ship's cook, having been infected, by the Plague). The following morning, when the crew discovers that the monster's blood has cured LeBrun, Doctor Belgon proposes the obtaining, of a number of the creatures' coccoons, to return to Gothia with; Jasper assists the crew's attempts, to obtain these coccoons. Sometime later, during the Hieronymous' return journey to Gothia, Jasper discovers Claude, feeding a now partly-metamorphised coccoon, with his own blood. Later, Doctor Belgon invites Morello back to the creature's room, where the animal is now hatching. Shocked by the larvae's size, Morello insists that the Doctor throw the monster overboard, and proceeds to inform Captain Griswald. Belgon, however, protests, believing that the crew will kill the creature; Jasper subsequently chooses to keep the monster's development a secret, in fear that the crew will destroy the animal (and, therefore, eliminate the possibility of Amelia being cured). Several days later, Kovacs catches a delicate "Porkfish", causing the crew to subsequently celebrate, that evening. Interestingly, Jasper notices that Claude had chosen to join the occasion, in an unusually cheerful manner, despite Morello never having seen him consumed alcohol, previously. The following morning, after Kovacs' disappearance becomes apparent, and Captain Griswald concludes the linesman had fallen overboard, Jasper begins to suspect Claude's involvement in his seeming death. Two days later, after LeBrun becomes absent, Morello enters the creature's room, only to discover the monster consuming the chef. During his temporary horror, Jasper is sedated by Belgon, who chains him to the Hieronymous' helm. Upon regaining consciousness, Morello learns that the Doctor has sedated the remaining crewmwmbers (who are now awaiting inevitable consumption, by the creature), and that Belgon intends for him to navigate the airship, the final stretch of the return journey. After steering the ship, into an arctic region, Jasper realizes that the Doctor, having become insane, will most likely kill, prior to the Hieronymous reaching Gothia, and to prevent this, Morello rams the airship, into a nearby iceberg. The impact knocks Belgon overboard, and, after regaining his grip, on the side of the helm's ralings, and begging for a chained Morello to help him, is crushed to death, on the side of the frozen obstacle. After unchaining himself, Jasper freezes the interior of the creature's room, causing the animal to go into hybernation, and, knowing that he must retain the animal, in order to preserve Amelia's cure, begins to transfer his blood, into the monster. Morello recites that, although he may not survive, before the airship reaches home, he will be with the "Great company of souls, riding the borealis to eternity". "Perhaps," he lastly recites, "They will require a navigator".

Iron Maiden Eddie mask
The original Eddie mask was created by an art student called David Brown. He used to live next door to Dave (Lights) Beasley back when Iron Maiden was just about to break through. There a few references to that time on an old german website (now defunkt) and several others including the BBC. David Brown made the original masks at his college (East Ham College of Technology) and several to Dave Beasley and one was used in the Ruskin concert in August 1979. This was the initial inspiration for Eddy. The masks very very fragile and life size and by October they were using a bigger, flatter face which looks a bit like a "Grey" alien. The original mask was taken from a plaster cast of another student in the class -ironically, the best looking guy in the class.

Cauliflower Sack

A bat-and-ball game similar to stick ball or baseball. The game was developed in the American South at some time around the beginning of the 20th Century. The cities of Savannah, GA and Charleston, SC both claim to be the birthplace of the game. Records of the game being played date back to the mid-1910's. Half-Rubber has been played for several generations in the south, and had a large regional popularity in the 1970's.  Recently, however, interest in the game has waned.

Equipment
A traditional half-rubber bat is either a broom-handle, or a slim bat made specifically for half-rubber or stickball. The ball is either a hollow rubber ball that has been folded into instelf to resemble half of a ball or a ball made specifically for half-rubber, which resembles a solid rubber ball that has been cut in half.

Rules of Play
At any time there will be a pitcher, a catcher, and a batter. The goal for the batter is to hit the pitched ball at least a bat's length in front of himself. When he does this, he has one man on base. He does not run to a base as in baseball, but as in baseball, when he gets four bases loaded, the fourth base forces home a run.The batter continues to try to hit pitched balls until he swings at a pitch and misses the ball and the catcher sucessfully catches the ball. When that happens, the catcher becomes the batter, the hitter becomes the pitcher, and the pitcher becomes the catcher. In this scenario for the game, each of the three individuals is playing against the others and the score is kept for all three. In team play, two teams usually comprised of one pitcher and one catcher per team play a similarly comprised team. Each team has two "at bats". Again a batter is out when he swings at a pitched ball that is successfully caught by the catcher.

The advantage to the team competition is that the pitcher and catcher are usually well matched. In individual play too often a good pitcher is frustrated by a poor catcher and the batter scores because the catcher cannot catch not because of the skill of the batter.

A good game ensues when pitchers can develop the correct combination of speed on the ball, accuracy over the "strike" (even though there are no strikes), and manipulation of the up and down flight of the sailing ball making it difficult for the batter to hit but still making a pitch in such fashion as to be hittable.

Jugger
Jugger is a team sport, describable as a mixture of Live action role-playing game and Rugby.

Introduction
The game as well as the players themselves are called Jugger(s).

The main goal of the game is to place the Jugg (the ball which traditionally has the shape of a dog's skull) into the opponents' goal. Since only one player of each of the two teams is allowed to take the Jugg with his hands, he must be guarded by his teammates, who are armed with padded weapons.

History
The idea of the sport came from the movie The Blood of Heroes (Australia 1989 with Rutger Hauer), in which nomadic teams wander from town to town and fight for money. While the fights in the movie are very violent (wounds and fractures in almost every game), the sport is rather harmless.

It is uncertain where the sport was originally "invented". Teams in Germany play it since 1992, but there are also teams in the USA, Italy and Australia.

Rules

 * The Australian rules are different from the German ones, so only the basics are listed here.

The field is a huge rectangle with cut corners (so there are 8 corners in total). There is one goal on each of the short sides of the field (a small base in which the Jugg can be placed).

The teams consist of 5 to 8 players: One runner (Quick or Qwik) who is the only person allowed to grab the Jugg and 4 fighting players, of which at most one may have a chain. The other 3 players are armed with sticks of different sizes. There may also be up to 3 substitute players.

Time was traditionally measured by throwing stones against a gong, but it is also possible to hit a drum. One stone (hit) is approximately 1.5 to 2 seconds and a game can consist of 2 or 3 parts, which last 100 stones each.

When the game starts, the teams run towards each other and start fighting to make the way free for their runner. When somebody is hit by a weapon (strikes against the head or the groin are forbidden and the wepaons must be sufficiently padded), the player must kneel down on the ground and wait a fixed time until he can stand back up and rejoin the play. The two runners may wrestle with each other, but may not beat or kick.

When the Jugg is placed onto the goal of a team, the other team gets a point and the game starts over. The team which has the most points at the end of the 200 or 300 stones, wins the game.

The National Instructional Materials Accessibility Standard (NIMAS) helps facilitate timely access to alternate formats of instructional materials for students with visual impairments or other print disabilities. The NIMAS (pronounced NYE-mas) outlines a set of consistent and valid XML-based source files created by K–12 curriculum publishers or other content producers. These well-structured source files can be used to create accessible specialized formats (i.e., braille, audio, e-text, large print, etc.) of print instructional materials. The full set of files includes XML content files, a package file, images, and a PDF file of the title page (or whichever page contains ISBN and copyright information).

In a significant step forward for students with disabilities, the U.S. Congress adopted NIMAS as part of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act of 2004, a reauthorization of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act.

Megastorm
Megastorm is an important character in the Japanese exclusive spin off from Beast Wars, Beast Wars II. Megastorm is the younger brother of the predacon Emperor Of Destruction, Galvatron. Whenever his brother is around, Megastorm plays a more goofy sidekick role, often being beaten, or told off for shooting his mouth off. However, Galvatron is frequently drops into stasis and at these moments the real Megastorm shines through. He then becomes extremly controlling, and according to Starscream is a much colder individual. Megastorm is one of the strongest warriors on either side, his cannon, while slow, possesses an extremly powerful burst. However he is hampered by it's speed, and his brother's returns to active duty. While his alt mode is a tank, Megastorm is only slightly taller then the average predacon, at eight or nine feet. Halfway through the series, Megastorm is reformatted into the size shifting cyber beast, Gigastorm

Megastorm was based off Generation Two Megatron, and unlike many of the BWII characters underwent no repaint or remould

Decent Working Conditions and Fair Competition Act
The "Decent Working Conditions and Fair Competition Act" was introduced into the United States Senate on June 8, 2006 as Senate Bil 3485 by Senator Byron Dorgan(D-ND) and was introduced in the House of Representatives on June 16, 2006 as HR 5635 by Rep. Sherrod Brown (D-OH).

The bill was written as a collaboration of different groups, including the United Steelworkers of America, the National Labor Committee and Senator Dorgan, partially in response to a Harris Poll showing that 75% of Americans agreed with the following statement: "I want my Member of Congress to support legislation to protect human rights in the global economy by prohibiting the import or sale of sweatshop goods in the U.S. which were made under conditions violating internationally recognized worker rights standards."

As of September, the bill had garnered four Senate co-sponsors and 33 co-sponsors in the House.. It has also recently been endorsed by the AFL-CIO

The bill aims to ban the sale of any goods deemed to be made in contravention of either core ILO standards, including the right to organize and freedom of association, or of local labor laws. The bill's backers have stated that the law was written specifically to ensure its compliance with World Trade Organization rules on non-discrimination, as the bill would also ban the sale of any goods made in America under substandard conditions. Furthermore, endorsers claim that the bill will treat all goods equally and hold all countries, including the United States, accountable for the conditions under which goods are made.

The contents of the bill can be found at the Library of Congress, or on their website.

Mobile Defense is a term used to describe a military manouver of repulsing an attack by the use of well planned attacks by the defender which can out manouver the attacker.

The first modern example of mobile defense was during WWII during the third battle of Kharkov. German Commander von Manstein used the II SS Panzer Korps to launch an attack to the rear of the Russian spearhead force encircling it. This success lead to the stabilization of the German Army Group South. Manstein became a proponent of the use of a strategy of Mobile Defense on the Eastern Front as a whole. Manstein came to the conclution that Germany could not defeat Russia in a traditional Static Defensive system used in WWI and that the only chance to achieve a Draw was to wear down the Russian army in costly mobile battles.

Manstein formulated a plan for the summer of 1943 where he argued all mechanized forces should be deployed south of Kharkov and await the Russian summer offensive which was believed to be aimed at capturing the Donetz Basin. The mechanized force would launch an offensive south to the sea of Azov once the Basin had been captured by the Russians. Hitler ultimately rejected this and went with a more conventional, double envelopment attack on Kursk.

The concept was further used in Korea when the Chinese volunteer force was halted through the use of mobile defense leading to a stablilized situation that led to the cease fire.

Arthur’s interest in indigenous art was stirred as he befriended some of the artists in the town, and as he learned more about the symbols, stories and meanings of the paintings, he began collecting artworks. These days, Arthur’s collection of Aboriginal art from the Central and Western desert regions is large, and his desire to share it has culminated in this exhibition, as well as a number of donations.

Arthur’s passion for Aboriginal art is matched by his generosity: he has donated seven works to Benalla Art Gallery over the past few years. These magnificent paintings form the core of Benalla’s burgeoning collection of indigenous art, much of which is also on display as part of ‘Connecting Collections’.

Benalla Art Gallery has acquired a number of major works by indigenous artists through donation and purchase. Through their fundraising efforts, the Friends of the Benalla Art Gallery have contributed four works by Aboriginal artists, including a magnificent Wandjina figure on bark and significant paintings by Emily Kngwarreye and Gloria Petyarre. Further donations have been made by private individuals, whose contributions cover a wide variety of Aboriginal art, and hence extend the capacity of Benalla Art Gallery to tell the story of Australia’s visual culture.

Also represented in the exhibition ‘Connecting Collections’ is the artwork donated by Arthur Papadimitriou to the Musée du Quai Branly, France’s new museum and study centre devoted to indigenous cultures of the world, scheduled to open its doors for the first time later this year. This is the first and last time the work will be publicly displayed in Australia before it is sent overseas, to become a significant component in the Musée’s display on Australian Aboriginal culture. The Cultural Counsellor from the Embassy of France in Australia, Monsieur Jean Poncet, will officially open this celebration of cultural connections.

On the 22nd June 2006, The Musee du Quai was officially open by Jacques Chirac and attending by figures such as Kofi Annan. Arthur Papadimitriou was an invited guest at the opening ceremonies, along with a delegation from the Benalla Art Gallery, with which Arthur Papadimitriou is a life member.

The Wilin Centre for Indigenous Arts and Cultural Development at the Victorian College of the Arts has an annual award titled “The Papadimitriou Inspirational Award” for students at the college.

Matt Kaeberlein
Matt Kaeberlein is a professor in the Pathology department at the University of Washington. He has coauthored numerous scientific articles on aging and caloric restriction. Kaeberlein, along with Brian Kennedy, proposed the hypothesis that life span extension by caloric restriction is mediated by the TOR kinase (1).

Kaeberlein was a graduate student in the laboratory of Lenny Guarente and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Part of his thesis research was the discovery that Sir2 regulates aging (2-3). Ironically, Kaeberlein has since been a vocal skeptic of the model that caloric restriction slows aging by activating Sir2 (4-5).

After graduate school, but prior to taking his current academic position, Kaeberlein co-founded a biotechnology company called Longenity.

A biography of Kaeberlein was published on SAGE KEin 2002 (6).

Chip "z32fanatic" Ferguson
Chip"z32fanatic" Ferguson (born April 17, 1985) is an American professional poker player from New Albany, Ohio

Ferguson has played online poker for 4 years and is one of the most well respected No-Limit Texas Holdem Sit and Go (abbreviated "SNG") players in the world. By utilizing applied statistics and probability functions, he has become one of the most feared players on the online poker site Partypoker.com.

He is also a contributor to the poker forum 2+2, located at http://www.twoplustwo.com. There, he posts under the pseudonym "z32fanatic," named for his childhood dream car the Nissan 300zx.

Chip has also coached many beginning poker players, teaching them the keys to success at SNGs.

While a freshman at Northwestern University, he first learned the game with his roommate, another well respected SNG player. They spent many hours studying the game, first playing NL cash games, followed by Pot Limit Omaha cash games, before switching to SNGs in September of 2005.

Chip has played under many aliases on Party Poker. Most recently he played under Rosekto. Currently he plays under the name z32fanatic6. Usually he will play $215 and $530 SNG tournaments, up to 12 at a time. In addition to playing a high number of tables simultaneously, he also logs many hours. In June he played over 2200 SNGs.

Chip has begun to extend his prowess into the live poker field after recently turning 21. This past summer, while residing in Las Vegas, Nevada during the summer, he played the World Series of Poker Main Event as well as several other preliminary events.

In terms of success, it is estimated that Chip has made more money playing SNGs than anyone on Party Poker during 2006. Also, his largest Multitable Tournament cash occurred in July when he won the Friday Special on PartyPoker.com, besting over 1000 entrants for a prize of $31,750.

saarang wafai

Saarang Wafai

Data de Nascimento: 14/03/1950

Nacionalidade: Libanês

Aparência: 1,74 metros; 70 quilos; aspecto robusto, cabelos negros encaracolados, olhos negros. Suspeita-se que tenha passado por várias cirurgias plásticas o que, somado ao fato de ser perito em disfarces, torna sua identificação visual muito difícil.

Histórico: Nascido em uma proeminente família sunita de Beirute, Saarang Wafai teve uma infância tranqüila. Cresceu rejeitando a tendência de seus familiares em lidar com comércio, mostrando nítida preferência pelos estudos. No exterior, fez um curso técnico de química e graduou como médico. Retornou ao Líbano em 1975, mesmo ano em que se casou com Nazanin Alghaie. Perdeu a esposa e filhos durante a invasão israelense a Beirute em 1982. Juntou-se ao Hezbollah no mesmo ano, provavelmente em busca de uma chance de vingar a morte de seus entes queridos. Perito em químicos, Saarang preparou os explosivos de muitos homens e carros-bomba. Treinado como um dos melhores comandos do Hezbollah, acredita-se que tenha sido o mentor do atentado que matou o comandante israelense Isaac Eliezer, um dos responsáveis pela invasão a Beirute em 1982. Em 1989 foi dado como morto em uma ação do Exército Israelense na qual vários integrantes do Hezbollah, então refugiados na Palestina, foram eliminados. Porém nos dois anos seguintes foi avistado no Egito, Sudão, Argélia, Marrocos, França, Espanha, Brasil, Uruguai e Argentina, Irã e Iraque. Aparentemente Saarang se juntou a Gregori Asimov e a ARIMAN pouco antes da companhia ir à Guerra dos Bálcãs, usando o nome de Mohamed Ibn Abdul-Aziz.

Personalidade: Saarang é um homem muito introspectivo e calado quando na presença de estranhos, embora o faça mantendo uma aparência amigável. Muçulmano praticante costuma citar partes do Corão como bordões de sabedoria, mesmo não demonstrando tendências fundamentalistas. Ele foi avistado diversas vezes socorrendo civis feridos, especialmente mulheres e crianças, bem como distribuindo alimentos e remédios em áreas devastadas nas zonas de guerra. Cultivador de plantas exóticas usa algumas delas pra extrair venenos. Um hábito curioso diagnosticado a seu respeito, é uma insistência em procurar cozinhar os próprios alimentos, talvez por temer envenenamento.

Ações: Há confirmação de que atuou em Serra Leoa e nos Bálcãs junto com a ARIMAN. Sabe-se que sua ligação com os muçulmanos bósnios tornou-se bastante estreita com o decorrer da guerra. Foi o responsável pela adesão e comando de muitos guerrilheiros islâmicos estrangeiros nas batalhas contra os sérvios em Sarajevo e redondezas.

Especialidades: A quantidade de conhecimentos de Saarang Wafai é ímpar. Além de médico e químico, ele também é perito em furtividade, invasão, manufatura de venenos, remédios e explosivos. Sua capacidade de dissimulação, somada a uma impressionante perícia em disfarces o torna potencialmente capaz de enganar quaisquer investigadores. Saarang é um dos comandantes da ARIMAN, sendo responsável pela coordenação direta das ações de campo que envolvam subterfúgio e armadilhas.

Periculosidade: Alta. A experiência de Saarang em ações furtivas, somado a seu conhecimento de explosivos, venenos e agentes patológicos poderia fazer dele novamente um perigoso terrorista. Sua verdadeira identidade é conhecida por poucos.

Informações não confirmadas: Alguns fatos provenientes de investigações anteriores apontam que Saarang pode ter traído seus companheiros do Hezbollah em troca de um salvo conduto para fora da Palestina, dinheiro e uma identidade falsa. As tentativas de obter uma confirmação oficial do governo de Israel a respeito desse fato falharam.

Identidades falsas detectadas: Mohamed Ibn Abdul-Aziz, Hermano Villena Jalal, Frederich Talib, Alfredo Najib Carneiro, Jean Zakariyya, Ahmed Seif al Din.

Táticas: Saarang prefere evitar o combate, usando suas habilidades de furtividade e invasão para esconder-se do perigo. Caso forçado a entrar em alguma luta, irá tentar se defender e ganhar tempo para atacar o adversário com uma faca envenenada no momento mais oportuno. Se o oponente for mais hábil que ele no combate corpo-a-corpo, procurará alcançar uma distância adequada para utilizar sua pistola Desert Eagle. O veneno que ele mais utiliza é o de cascavel, mas guarda doses do de beladona para o caso de adversários mais resistentes. Caso tenha tempo disponível, Saarang pode preparar armadilhas com C4 no caminho dos adversários.

RDK League
RDKLeague is a newly-established organisation founded by a group of gamers in late 2005. The main purpose of the site is Console Gaming competitions both Online (Xbox Live) and LAN (Local-Area-Network Event) for the Xbox Console. The keystone game for these competitions is that of Bungie's Halo 2. The site also hosts an active forum, "Videos Portal" in which users submit video content recorded from their personal games to be ranked up against others (often in competitions) and many other user-interactive features. Originally hosted at BurnZone.Org, the website was moved around Christmas 2005 and re-named as RDKLeague.

The group recently partnered with lifestyle brand JoystickJunkies, also known as "TruePlayerz", for a spree of European Gaming Events, primarily in the division of "Halo 2" for the Original Xbox Console, which has currently gained a great deal of support from across the continent.

Ballsrus
Ballsrus is a new brand emerging from all the sports brands in the world. I was the first one to visit it and i have to establish a few things. It is a good brand but nothing really makes it stand out. The staff are generally very helpfull and polite. To conclude i would say that ballsrus is just another highstreet brand.

BeNuts are a german ska band from Munich.

Band history
The group was founded in 1994 and has since been a very popular concert attraction not only locally, but all throughout Germany. A notable feature about the band are their multilingual song lyrics. While most of the songs, as well as all of the album titles, are English, many compositions also feature French, German, Spanish and even Croatian lyrics and titles. This made touring through most of Central Europe possible. BeNuts also claim to be the first German ska band to have played in Russia and Japan. Only two of eight founding members remain in the group until today, namely Daniel Mauss (drums) and Alexander Erdody (bass). Especially the position of singer and frontman experienced a lot of changes through the years. From 2003 to May 2006, this spot was filled by American vocalist Robert Johnson. His successor, who joined the band in September of 2006, is a student in Munich Conservatorium nicknamed El Konno.

Passion fm Kildare
Passion fm Kildare, grew from humble beginings in 2001 from a garden shed in Kidare, Ireland. The studios where small and equipment limited. The main format of the station was just dance, but as the station grew and listenship also grew the management got a feeling to what the 15 - 25 year olds in Kildare wanted to listen too.

The station was owned and managed by Greg Browne. (see http://DJgregbrowne.bebo.com). Greg is still working in radio, currently he lives in the UK, working for Immedia Broadcasting ltd, (see www.immediabroadcasting.com) as a radio presenter for Irish national station Impulse live.

Original power was 100 watts - trough 2 - sdh 100 dipoles stacked to make an erp of 220 watts.

In late 2001 Greg Browne joined forces with an infuencial business man who provided much needed equipment.

Passion fm could now afford a mountain site, and got a custom made mast erected. On the mast where 4 cte dipoles and one 4 element yagi for FM.

The 4 CTE dipoles where fed by a 500 watt CTE transmitter (2000 watt ERP), which blasted into Kildare and was recievable as far as Belfast Northen Ireland. The freq was originally 107.7Mhz but later changed to 91.6 to gain better penetration into Dublin city.

The 4 element Yagi was fed by a 250 watt CTE, and was pointed towards Dublin. This was not strong enough to cover all of the city but it could be heard on 107.7 in some parts.

Next to the mountain site came the processing, Passion fm purchased the orginal optimod 8000A. (see www.orban.com) This processor was simple but gave a nice warm sound. This couppled with a Berhinger edison stereo enhancer and a 30 band graffic EQ made the sound nice and warm.

Towards the later stages of Passion fm bought an orban cpmpander (Preprocessor). Which added to the sound quality.

At this stage it was 2002/3 and Passion fm was bigger than ever. It was a fully automated service playing chart, dance and RnB. The audience was huge and advertisers jumped at the chance to advertise.

JOEY TC/TPA - THE PUBLIC ANIMALS
THE PUBLIC ANIMALS (TPA), founded in 1977 by VADE, DEMO and JOEY TC, became the largest, longest-lasting spray-paint crew in graffiti history.

JOEY TPA is the last remaining founder. His graffiti career began in NYC at the age of 10 years and grew to the more serious level of "train-hitting" in 1976, the year of the U.S. bicentennial. He quickly started following in the footsteps of the first generation writers and became very instrumental in recruiting other writers from the Brooklyn, Bronx, Manhattan, and Queens regions of NYC. In 1980-1981, he hung his cans up in retirement to pursue his fortunes elsewhere.

Today, in the twenty-first century, JOEY TPA has re-emerged into the graffiti scene on a different level. Rather than being a practicioner, he has assembled portions of his old crew for large-scale productions on a legal basis. Events include The Meeting of Styles, and Write for Gold. It would appear that his motivation is similar to the same motivations he had in his youthful career as a fledgling writer; to bring people together, regardless of the usual divisive lines among the general public. He truly seems to be more interested in using the "language of style" (his words, not mine) to help unify urban youth on a global basis with the aid of the internet and other modern ways of communication.

As the corporate CEO and Founder of TPA Productions LLC, it would appear that the young graffiti writer of yesterday has succeeded in fulfilling his goal today, roughly thirty years later. JOEY TPA has assembled notable writers from Australia, New Zealand, Germany, other various countries as well as his homeland, the U.S. in an effort to expand the original message of TPA: "One World, One Love".

TPA has seemingly re-emerged as an upcoming powerhouse in the graffiti/commercial/fashion world under the leadership of this original writer who helped found the original (TPA) band of graffiti-writing kids in NYC. TPA has gone from urban NYC to ALL-WORLD status under him.

Massacre at Ayyadieh

The massacre of Aayaideh occured on the 20th August 1191. It was perpetrated by Richard Cour de Lion, better known as Richard the Lion Heart, during the crusades to recover the holy land from the saracens under the command of Saladin. It is best understood in the context of Richards attempt to take the city of Acre. The struggle for the city was unusually vicious even by Crusade standards, where little mercy was shown or asked for by soldiers on either side, and massacres were common place, particularly against the citizens of a captured city.

On the fall of the Acre, Richard attempted to negotiate with Saladin offering a large number of captured prisoners in exchange for the True Cross (reputedly the actual cross upon which Jesus Christ had been crucified), together with a large ransom and a number of christian captives taken by Saladins men in earlier clashes with the crusaders.

Saladin stalled for time in the hope that an approaching Muslim army would allow him to retake control of the city. When Saladin refused a request from Richard to provide a list of names of important christians held by the Saracens, Ricard Cour de Lion took this as the delaying tactic that it probably was, and insisted that the ransom payment and prisoner exchange should occur within one month. When the deadline was not met Richard became infuriated and decided on a savage punishment of Saladin for his perceived intransigence. Richard personally oversaw and planned the massacre which took place on a small hill called Ayyadieh, a few miles from Acre. The killings were carried out in full view of the muslim army and Saladins own field headquarters. Over 3000 men, women and children, were beaten to death, axed or killed with swords and lances.

A Muslim force so enraged by this act attempted to charge the crusader lines but was repeatedly beaten back, allowing Richard and his army to retire in good order.

Aftermath

Any hope of regaining the True Cross dissapeared after Ayyadieh, it was rumoured that Saladin sent it to Damascus. By his orders the Christian prisoners were executed in Damascus.

Aayadieh is perhaps the strongest refutation of Richard as a courteous and chivalrous warrior king. On this occasion his almost "theatrical" staging of the massacre showed that he was capable of using terror tactics in an attempt to terrify his opponents into submission. This form of warfare was used by both sides and the Muslims were no exception once a besieged city had fallen to them.

Patrique

Venom Games
Venom Games are a video game developer based in Newcastle Upon Tyne, England. They were set up as an independent in early 2003 from a pool of key members of staff from Rage Software's Newcastle studio following the parent company's collapse.

Whilst at Rage they created a videogame based on the Oscar-winning "Rocky" movies for Xbox, PS2 and Gamecube (the latter being a conversion handled by Steel Monkeys), the success of which led to their first contract as an independent developer- the production of "Rocky: Legends", a sequel, for Ubisoft who had distibuted the first Rocky game in the US.

In September 2004 they became part of the Take-Two Interactive group of companies, under their newly-formed 2K Games label, expanding staff numbers greatly in June 2005 with their relocation into new studio premises in Gateshead.

Their second published title as "Venom Games" is the conversion of "Prey" to the Xbox 360 which held the Number 1 spot in the UK 360 charts for over a month from July/August 2006.

They are currently working on a mix of original next-generation (Xbox 360 and Playstation 3) exclusive games and work bringing games to other platforms, as they did with "Prey"

Angel Rock
Angel Rock is a 2002 crime novel written by Darren Williams. The book is mostly set against the backdrop of the Australian bush during the late 1960s, and tells the story of what happens after the small rural community of the title is struck by two tragedies in quick succession.

Plot

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow

In the Summer of 1969, 13-year-old Tom Ferry and his younger half brother, Flynn Gunn, go missing in the bush after getting lost on their way home. Several days later, Tom returns to Angel Rock alone, with no recollection of the intervening time or what has happened to Flynn. Shortly afterwards, police in Sydney discover the body of a teenage girl in a derelict house, who turns out to be Darcy Steele, the daughter of a local farmer.

When Gibson, the detective assigned to Darcy's case, sees that she has committed suicide, the discovery triggers painful memories from his childhood when his sister died in similar circumstances. He has always struggled to understand the reasons behind her actions, and sets about trying to piece together the events surrounding Darcy's death in the hope that it might help him to come to terms with his own loss. He travels to Angel Rock, where his investigations soon lead him to believe that Darcy's suicide and Flynn's disappearance might be connected in some way.

Eventually, both Gibson and Tom are forced to confront their demons in a town which they discover is crawling with spectres and secrets.

Spoilers end here.

The Rivvits
The Rivvits: Late 1970s Pop-Punk Band

The Rivvits (1977-79) were a West London-based pop-punk band formed by vocalist and guitarist, Chris Burne, bassist Martin Godfrey, guitarist/keyboard player Nick Jones and drummer Dave Hawthorn. The band played many of the influential punk/new wave clubs and pubs in and around London, such as, The Marquee, The Hope & Anchor (Islington), The Roxy, The Vortex, Acklam Hall (Notting Hill), The Rock Garden, The Red Cow (Hammersmith), The Windsor Castle (Harrow Road) and The Brecknock (Tufnell Park). The Rivvits played alongside (then) fledgling punk bands such as, XTC, The Lurkers, Subway Sect, The Slits, Jilted John, The Buzzcocks, The Adverts, Chelsea and UK Subs, The Police, Dire Straits among others.

The band signed to Alien Records in 1977 after an initial (unhappy) signing with London 'Prog Rock' manager, Del Taylor. It was said by friends of the band that Burne and Godfrey chased Taylor around his office in Hammersmith and threatened him with physical violence unless he released them from their draconian management contract. Strangely, Taylor did release the band from their contract rather quickly and with no financial penalties!

The Alien Record Company was run by their new manager, Nigel Lucas. Alien also handled the publishing of the Rivvits' material, although this later became a cause of contention. Chris Burne co-designed the Rivvits record sleeves with his then girlfriend, graphic designer, Sonia Ferrier (who sang some backing vocals on studio sessions) and he also wrote most of the Rivvits material, along with Martin.

The Rivvits played medium and large venue gigs, and universities, throughout 1977/79, sometimes headlining, sometimes as support band. They once supported the famous rock 'n' roll act The Pirates, in 1978. Bernie Rhodes, The Clash manager, was at one time interested in managing them after seeing the Rivvits at the Pirates gig.

Their first single was released as ALIX-1 in 1978: Saturday Night at the Dance (Burne) B/W The Girl Next Door (Godfrey) on Alien. This came with a FREE give-away flexi disk, a Duane Eddy influenced rocker, Alright On the Night (one sided). Saturday Night at the Dance sold well for a new-wave single and reached the 40s in the UK chart and No.6 in the alternative charts. After extensive publicity executed by the band themselves that was later an influence on today's Guerrilla Marketing techniques, they plastered London's underground, buses, cafes, bars and punk venues with distinctive circular Alien stickers advertising the single. Debbie Harry of Blondie was in London during this campaign and is said to have seen the stickers and bought the single. 'Saturday Night at the Dance' is an up-tempo rock ‘n' roll teen anthem with "Dance, dance, dance" as the chorus lyrics and a Chuck Berry-style lead guitar solo played by Nick Jones who also produced the single. 'Girl Next Door' is a Buddy Holly-style spoof about an underwear fetishist. 'Never', their next single, was more adventurous. Written by Godfrey, arranged by Burne and produced by Nick Jones, it features unusual modal multi-sax harmony on the chorus, using elaborate counterpoint. Nigel Green, the sax player, then blasts into a jazz/blues sax solo over the following chorus. The sound is minor key, 60s, psych/garage-band influenced with a distinctive bass line by Godfrey. Julie Birchall was a fan of 'Never' and gave it a good review in the NME. Her opening line was, "The Rivvits are cool and completely acceptable..." Praise indeed from the usually acid tongue of Miss B! 'Never' is backed with ‘Boy Meets Girl’, written by Chris Burne. This is a classic three minute pop song in very fast tempo with catchy 60’s organ and antiphonal girl backing vocals on the chorus' ‘Boy Meets Girl’ chant. The lyric is cynical about marriage and mortgages and is amusingly witty.

Alien Records continued to bring out singles into early 1980, using personnel formed from The Rivvits under various band names; The Beaks (Dr X), 1979, a spoof Hammer Horror influenced song written by Godfrey, with a strong Iggy/Stooges type bass and guitar riff; and, Nathaniel Halcrow & The Mastodons (Move to the Right), written by Burne, which is a classic organ/bass riff pop song with a very catchy chorus. It's about liberty versus the dangers of extremist politics, both right and left!

Chris Burne also collaborated with noted keyboardist Vic Martin, in early 1979, on another Alien single that charted in several European countries, 'Don't Turn Me Away'. This is a synth-orchestrated slow ballad co-written by Martin and Burne. The singer was a strikingly attractive 19 year old brunette, a St Martin's art student named Rexy, who spoke the vocals simply because she couldn't sing at all! Wistful harmonies on the chorus are by Martin, Burne and Ferrier. It was recorded in John Foxx's studio, The Garden, in Covent Garden. Vic Martin later went on to become the keyboard player with the Eurhythmics, then with Curiosity Killed the Cat, and he now plays with Gary Moore's Blues Band and occasionally, Alan Price's Band.

Chris Burne and Martin Godfrey split from Alien in late 1979, after a policy dispute over publishing rights with manager Nigel Lucas. Chris Burne had recently formed another band, 'Colour Vision,' playing many gigs in London (Dingwall's and the Music Machine (now Koko) gigs in Camden got good reviews) and various home-counties venues (Chelmsford Town Hall/Corn Exchange, Devizes). The backing band was formed of various seasoned players, including ace jazz/rock guitarist Clive Copland and legendary ex-Bob Marley drummer, Bob Drumbago. Colour Vision released one single on Alien, 'Until Tomorrow' as the A side, and 'Waiting into Eternity' on the B side, both written by Chris Burne.

Chris Burne has since forged a name for himself as a writer, composer/arranger and player in new wave/Rock/Improvisation, classical music and jazz, releasing material throughout the 1980s and 90s. Burne has also written media soundtracks and jingles.

Nick Jones lives in rural Leicestershire and works on a farm. He is an accomplished accordionist and plays in a dance band at festivals around the UK and has worked in a studio writing library music. In 1994, Leicester University commissioned him to write a piece for the University orchestra which was performed there that year.

Martin Godfrey runs an antique shop in the Home Counties.

Dave Hawthorn is a qualified dentist, practising in London.

The Rivvits' singles and other vinyl by Alien Records are collectable and are regularly sold on E-Bay and other auction sites.
