One of Kenyas finest game parks is under threat from uncontrolled development of hotels and lodges, conservationists claim. The building of four new hotels, which would more than double the number of beds in Samburu National Reserve, has been criti- cised environmental groups which warn that elephant migratory corridors and lion breeding habitats could be destroyed. “These current proposed developments are all along the river. There will be a huge impact on the area most heavily utilised by the wildlife,” she said. “We have to be very careful how we plan for the future. If landscape planning in Samburu is not managed it will have an adverse effect on the environment and the people who rely on tourism for their livelihoods.” Save the Elephants had been threatened with expulsion from Samburu, where the group carries out conservation work protecting the regions 5,500 elephants, at the end of April. The group was given until tomorrow to leave the reserve after being accused by Samburu County Council of “publishing malicious reports”. But the charity earned a last-minute reprieved after local councillors committed to protecting the reserve managed to overturn the order. Councillor Christopher Lalkalepi said Save the Elephants was now “in safe hands. They will not be chased away.”

Meal and snack replacement products helped participants in a German study lose weight-and keep it off. In phase one of the study, half the participants ate a control diet of 1,200 to 1,500 kcal/day (Group A); the other half ate two meal and two snack replacement products (vitamin- and mineral-fortified shakes, soups, and bars) and a 600 to 900 kcal meal containing 30 to 45 grams of protein (Group B). After 3 months, participants in Group A lost a mean of 1.5% of baseline body weight; they had no changes in their systolic blood pressure, plasma triacylglycerol, or glucose or insulin concentrations. Participants in Group B had a significantly higher weight loss-a mean of 7.8% of body weight. They also had signficantly reduced systolic blood pressure, tricylglycerol, and glucose and insulin concentrations.
A recent investigation set out to test a novel approach to sustaining long-term contact with individuals after participation in a structured behavioral weight loss program. Two hundred and fifty-five (209 women and 46 men) overweight and obese adults were recruited through newspaper advertisements for participation in the study. Criteria for participation included age over 18, BMI greater than or equal to 25 kg/[m.sup.2], and a computer with adequate memory and connection speed. All subjects participated in an identical 6-month behavioral weight control intervention conducted over interactive television (ITV). Following weight loss, subjects were randomly assigned to one of three weight maintenance conditions: 1) Internet support (IS); 2) frequent in-person support (F-IPS); 3) minimal in-person support (M-IPS). All subjects were seen for assessment measures at baseline and at 6 months, 12 months, and 18 months. Main outcome measures included body weight, program adherence, and social influence components. There were no significant differences among the groups in weight loss (mean [+ or -] SD) from baseline to 18 months (7.6 kg [+ or -] 7.3 kg vs. 5.5 kg [+ or -] 8.9 kg vs. 5.1 kg [+ or -] 6.5 kg, p=0.23 for the IS, M-IPS, and F-IPS, respectively). Participants assigned to an Internet-based weight maintenance program managed similar weight loss over 18 months when compared with face-to-face counseling. It appears that Internet-based support is a viable means for promoting long-term weight maintenance.
The BWHS began in 1995 when 64,500 US African-American women 21 to 69 years old enrolled in a long-term health study of African-American women by completing mail health questionnaires. The present study is based on the 4-year follow-up period from 1995 to 1999. The final sample, 11,196 women, included 9966 who remained nulliparous, 598 nulliparous women who had a first child, 387 primiparous women who had a second child, and 245 women with two or more children who had another child during follow-up. Over a 4-year period of follow-up of women 21 to 39 years old at entry to the BWHS, BMI increased by an average of 1.6 kg/[m.sup.2], or 0.4 kg/[m.sup.2] per year, equivalent to a weight gain of approx.1.1 kg/year. The proportion of women who were obese increased from 24% in 1995 to 32% in 1999. Childbearing influenced BMI gain among BWHS participants. The BMI of women who had a child increased more than that of nulliparous women, and women who had a first child gained more weight than those who had a second or a later child. The weight gain associated with childbearing increased as baseline BMI increased and was appreciable among the obese women. For example, among women 25 to 29 years old with a baseline BMI of 36, the BMI increase of those who had a first child was an estimated 1.1 kg/[m.sup.2] more than the increase in nulliparous women, equivalent to a difference in weight gain of approx.3.0 kg. Low level of exercise was a strong predictor of weight gain in the BWHS, in accord with many studies. There was no association found between total caloric intake and the percent of calories from fat in 1995 with weight gain. In summary, the present data indicate that childbearing among African-American women increases weight gain. The childbearing-related gain increases as baseline BMI increases and accounts for an appreciable part of the total gain among heavier women. Interventions to prevent obesity in African-American women should discourage excessive weight gain during pregnancy and encourage weight loss after the pregnancy, particularly among women who are already overweight.

SAN FRANCISCO — For all the power and complexity of modern computer networks, practical computer security against cybervandals may ultimately be found in the commonplace concept of a burglar alarm. Schneiers credentials include creating the Twofish encryption algorithm, which is a candidate to become the advanced encryption standard being set by the National Institute of Standards and Technology. So it may seem odd that a scientist who designs unbreakable mathematical locks for protecting information is calling on e-commerce companies to put mere people back in the computer- security equation. But Schneier argues that to trust the safety of information stored in a computer system to even the most powerful computer security software alone is foolhardy. That is why his new company, Counterpane Internet Security, has adopted a business model remarkably like that of ADT Security Services, the burglar alarm company.

Researchers developed an approach that included education about the biological and psychological determinants of body weight, weight loss, and weight regain; cognitive behavioral treatment (CBT) methods to enhance self-esteem and body image (independent of weight); and instruction in behavioral methods of weight control. These investigators report changes in weight, body image, and serf-esteem associated with a novel treatment after 40 weeks of treatment and at a 1-year follow-up (that is, week 92). They also compare these results with those obtained in published trials of standard behavior treatment. Subjects were 17 obese women with a mean age of 46.5 [+ or -] 9.7 years, a mean weight of 92.8 [+ or -] 9.1 kg, and a mean BMI of 34.7 [+ or -] 2.9 kg/[m.sup.2]. Thirteen were white (76.5%), and four were African American (23.5%). The program was designed to alter patients expectations and to promote the acceptance of realistic weight loss outcomes (that is, approximately a 10% weight loss). Subjects were treated in groups of 7 to 10 persons and attended 20 weekly sessions, 5 monthly sessions (over 20 weeks), and a 1-year follow-up visit. The 40-week intervention consisted of four phases. During phase 1 (weeks 1 to 4), the subjects were instructed to refrain from making any changes in their eating or activity habits to focus entirely on examining their weight loss goals and expectations. Phase II of the program (weeks 5 to 12) focused on the development of weight control skills. The subjects were instructed to consume a self-selected diet of 1200 to 1500 kcal/day and were trained in the standard cognitive behavioral methods of weight control. Phase III (weeks 13 to 20) focused on methods to improve body image and self esteem. And finally, phase IV of the program (weeks 24 to 40) focused on developing weight maintenance skills. Weight was measured at each treatment visit. Changes in weight, self-esteem, body image, and quality of life were assessed at the end of treatment and 1 year later.

Notary Publics have a long history going back as far as Ancient Rome. Scribes were called Tabellions and the tables covered with wax they used instead of paper were called Tabulae. They worked in the Roman market places. As they evolved, Notaries were used by the Roman Senate and the Courts of Law to record judgments and decrees. They also recorded private acts such as deeds, wills and transfer of property. The term Notarius originated around 100 AD and is a Latin word meaning clerk. Ciceros secretary, M. Tulluis Tiro, is believed to have developed a new form of shorthand called Notae Teroninae. During the 13th Century Notaries were Papal appointees given ecclesiastical jurisdiction. Although originally applied to the shorthand writer, over time the term Notarius became reserved exclusively to the Registrars attached to the Courts of Provincial governors, to the secretaries of emperors, and to the highest class of officials in the Roman Privy Council and the Imperial Chancery.

When goals are not reached or the progress toward them is unsatisfactory, people have impaired performance and often tend to abandon their attempt to achieve the unreachable goals. To improve the understanding of the weight loss expectations of obese subjects and of the factors that influence them, some Italian researchers analyzed the data of a large observational study that was recently established in Italy for a comprehensive measurement of health-related quality of life, psychological distress, and eating behavior in obese patients. A total of 1891 obese patients seeking treatment in 25 Italian medical centers were included in this study. Diet and weight history, weight loss expectations and primary motivation for seeking treatment (health or improved appearance) were recorded via a detailed case report and a set of questionnaires. Psychiatric distress, binge eating, and body image dissatisfaction were tested by self-administered questionnaires (Symptom CheckList-90, Binge Eating Scale and Body Uneasiness Test). In 1011 cases, the one-year expected BMI loss was gt; 9kg/[m.sup.2], dream BMI was 26 and maximum acceptable BMI was 29.3. The expected one-year BMI loss was significantly related to the maximum BMI loss during previous attempts. Age was also a strong predictor of weight goals. Psychiatric distress, body dissatisfaction and binge eating did not predict weight loss expectations. The primary motivation for weight loss was concern for future (33.4%) or present health (gt;50%), and only 15.2% wanted to improve appearance. Women seeking treatment to improve appearance had a lower grade of obesity, were younger and had first attempted weight loss at a younger age.
Meal and snack replacement products helped participants in a German study lose weight-and keep it off. Losing a small percentage of body weight can make a big difference in reducing an obese persons risk of developing cardiovascular disease or diabetes. Yet maintaining weight loss over the long term can be a problem. A German study published in the August 2000 issue of Obesity Research reports that using one meal and one snack replacement product a day can help those whove lost weight keep it off.

This academic satire is about two professors and their families. Howard Belsey is a white secular liberal, a specialist in Rembrandt, who is engaged in ideological warfare with a visiting professor, Monty Kippes, a conservative Christian scholar from Trinidad. Each character in the story is undermined by his or her self-deceptions. Howards attachment to theoretical knowledge seems to preclude understanding or controlling his adulterous behavior. Smith brilliantly draws these and other characters and gently but wittily pierces their illusions and pretensions. Howards African-American wife, Kiki, is one of the few characters to offer emotional or moral ballast, along with her son Jerome, who rejects his parents secularism for a newfound Christianity.

MILLIONS of holidaymakers are being hit with a record rise in car rental charges. The cost of hiring and driving a car has more than doubled in some European countries - adding up to pounds 200 to a weeks holiday. Higher petrol prices and the falling value of the pound against the euro are being blamed. Greece, which attracts three million Britons a year, has emerged as the most expensive country. The average bill for hiring a car, including petrol, for three days has soared from pounds 124 to pounds 249.
NEXT MONTH, eight nations in Eastern Europe will join the EU. But travellers aiming for the Eastern bloc will still find it difficult, expensive or, in some cases, impossible to find a suitable hire car. As the rules stand, rented vehicles generally cannot be driven from western Europe into the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia. Rental companies cite “business reasons” or “fleet control purposes” - code for concerns over vehicle theft. The obvious starting place for a road trip to Eastern Europe is Austria, easily reached from Britain on a range of cheap flights. Crossing the eastern frontiers is permitted, but an extra charge is levied. When driving from Vienna to the Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia and Slovenia, Hertz adds 50 per cent to its Collision Damage Waiver and Theft Protection fees. Avis charges EUR14-17 (pounds 10- 12) per day, while Europcar levies a one-off charge of EUR35 (pounds 25).
As this issue goes to press, the railroad industry will have had almost six months to digest the impact of the ICCs car-hire deprescription rules. Assuming you start counting from the date these rules were first promulgated in 1993, railroads have had sufficient time to react, and we should be seeing the first faint stirrings of how things will be in the future. Our industry sources tell us that while there have been some dramatic overtures by some of the railroads that were deprescriptions greatest proponents, there is a lot that hasnt yet occurred but which will likely shake out in the near future. Like the weekend partygoer who overdid it on Sunday evening and has to face Monday morning eventually, the railroad industry has come to grips with the reality of car-hire deprescription. The attitude seems to be, “Its here and even though we did (or did not) support it, we now have to get on with business in a new environment.” And getting on with business has been what most railroads have been actively involved with since the first of the year. For instance, as of this writing, about 47,000 railcars have been deprescribed and converted into market rate cars by their owners. Generally speaking, these cars have either been voluntarily deprescribed ones that, due to their age, would otherwise have continued to earn a low stated per diem under the old rules (in the face of a shortage of the car type that would allow a higher market rate - about 21,000 cars total), or they have been cars that have been rebuilt and have become market rate cars as a result.

The things some people will do for a white Christmas.
Monday May 5, 2003 will go down in history as a day to remember in employment law. It was the day the long-debated amendments to the Health Safety in Employment Act finally came into effect. Why is this new legislation so important? The term “workplace stress” took on a whole new significance, with new obligations for employers, and potentially serious financial consequences for those who ignore them. Workplace stress is no longer simply a sad fact of life. It is now an officially recognised and legislated “workplace hazard”, with the amendments extending the definitions of “harm” and “hazard” to include physical and mental harm caused by work-related stress. A cursory reading of the new legislation might be enough to instantly treble employers workplace stress, but a deeper understanding goes some way to restoring mental equilibrium. The Occupational Safety and Health booklet, Healthy work, Managing Stress in the Workplace, tells employers that “there is only a requirement to manage work stressors or the individuals stressed situation where you can be reasonably expected to know about the stress. Even then the obligation is only to do what is reasonably practicable in the circumstances.”

Dr. Smith went on to add, Through the GBAS program, AACD members like me assist survivors by treating their dental injuries sustained through domestic abuse. The program helps women reclaim their smiles, their self-esteem, and their lives. And, because more than five million people are affected by domestic violence every year in the United States and Canada, there is clearly a need for a program like Give Back A Smile to help survivors rejuvenate their lives through the caring hands of a local dentist.

Business Editors TRUMBULL, Conn.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–June 21, 2002 Imagistics International Inc. (NYSE: IGI), formerly Pitney Bowes Office Systems, today announced the launch of its first nationwide advertising campaign to build brand awareness and national recognition for its office document equipment and solutions.
ADVERTISING MEDIAAUDIORadio stations feature many different programming emphases. These range from music-oriented formats such as country, adult contemporary, classic rock, and alternative rock to news-or talk-oriented formats. Since these different formats attract different demographic segments of the total audience, business owners can take appreciable measures to reach their target audience simply by buying time on appropriate stations. Another major advantage of radio advertising is that it is inexpensive to place and to produce, allowing small business owners to place advertisements on more than one station in a given market. In addition, radio advertising content can be changed quickly to meet changes in the market or to reflect new business objectives. Finally, radio reaches large numbers of commuters, income-generating people who often pay more attention to radio advertising than to other advertising media, especially if they are driving alone.

Graphic Designing Todays retail environment requires the package to do much more than just store its contents; the package must sell itself. While the package engineer must ensure that a box is functional as a container, the graphic designer is responsible for making the box function as a sales tool. Colors, images and text must be chosen with the potential end consumer constantly in mind. Using desktop computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-assisted manufacturing (CAM) software, the graphic designer creates a prototype of the package. CAD/CAM systems allow the designer to provide a precise representation of what the customer wants while also meeting manufacturing standards. This eliminates the lengthy processes of photography, film stripping and proofing that are part of the expensive procedure of getting an image ready for printing. The designer has combined computerized and digital techniques to prepare images and finish packaging projects, all in one fell swoop.
Green, 32, says his work doesnt have a signature style, but often includes “cartoonish” elements and tongue-in-cheek humor. “People say they can identify a consistent something in my work - theyll say that looks like your stuff - but then they cant quite put their finger on it,” he says. He cites tattoos as an inspiration, which is reflected in the way he uses illustrations as an integrated part of graphics, rather than something that is merely added on. In addition to print, Web projects and packaging, Green is moving into work on environmental graphics - in this case wall murals, as well as logos and signage - for a new bowling alley that is about to open in Jeffersontown. He also designed props and graphics for the locally made feature film Keep Your Distance.

KEYWORDS: Facilitators and constraints to leisure, ecological perspective, leisure participation Early in the 1990s I was invited to be a discussant in the psychology of leisure section of the Leisure Research Symposium at an NRPA congress. At the time I reflected on how it came to be that our field had a model that provided structure for us to understand non-participation and constraints, yet no similar model existed to provide an organizing structure for us to understand what facilitates participation. The purpose of this article is to propose a new approach to understanding the nature of participation.

ow-priced real estate and an easier pace of life convinced Tim and Lisa Wilk to choose Topeka over Denver and Grand Junction, Colo. Car dealer Ed Bozarth offered to transfer Tim Wilk, 38, an automotive technician, to one of his dealerships. The Wilks picked Topeka because they said they believe the community offers a better lifestyle for less money. This spring, they bought a three-bedroom, two-bath house at 2631 S.E. 32nd for $119,500. The house has nearly 1,800 square feet; a two-car garage; and a big yard for their son, three dogs and a cat.
This simple, elegant structure, with doug fir structure and cedar floor, presents and celebrates the essentials of shelter and repose. It frames an important way of experiencing life on Earth that is more difficult to find or even recall every day. The basic T House is 6 x 10; other sizes are available. Kits include pre-drilled and cut frame, flooring, roof canvas, bamboo wallblinds, assembly hardware, and instructions.

A guide published by the Sainsbury Centre for Mental Health (SCMH) encourages the NHS to lead by example in employing people with mental health problems. Leading by Example: making the NHS an exemplar employer of people with mental health problems was produced in association with the Disability Rights Commission (DRC) and offers advice on how NHS trusts can support people with mental health problems, as well as the mental wellbeing of its staff, drawing upon the findings from several NHS mental health trusts that pioneered the approach. But it can be done, step-by-step, and makes a huge difference to peoples lives. The guide costs £10 including pp and can be purchased from the SCMH.

TEMPORARY EMPLOYMENTSince the middle of the twentieth century, temporary employment has expanded greatly and become a viable and effective tool for American businesses. In 1995, it was estimated that the actual size of the contingent, or flexible, work force was between 2.2 and 4.9 percent of the work force (Bureau of Labor Statistics, 1995).Clerical workers accounted for approximately 40 percent of the total U.S. temporary payroll in the 1990s. However, the number of contingents includes CEOs, human resources directors, computer systems analysts, accountants, doctors, and nurses. Approximately 20 percent are professionals. About 90 percent of short-term temporary workers are supplied by a staffing company.

Two recent Vancouver real estate market activities - a commercial office building sale and a lease assignment - are telling of a community poised for further growth, according to an executive with the commercial real estate firm of Norris Beggs Simpson. One deal was the $8 million sale of Park Place Office Center to Erickson Realty LTD of Medford, which has three office buildings in the Beaverton area, and Hoffman Columbia Plaza in downtown Portland. Beacon Homes LLC was the seller of Park Place. Chris Johnson, an executive vice president at Norris Beggs, represented Erickson and the seller, Beacon Homes in the Park Place deal. Johnson said that Park Place represented a “solid investment” for Erickson, which wanted to expand into the Vancouver market.
Yamhill County will get its first Lowes Home Improvement Warehouse with a new location in McMinnville, as prominent retailers reach beyond the immediate Portland metropolitan area for fresh markets. Lowes will anchor a planned 250,000- to 275,000-square-foot retail center on property at the junction of Highways 18 and 99 West and the Highway 18 Bypass in south McMinnville. Meanwhile, Lowes has new locations under construction in Hillsboro and Vancouver, Wash. Last week, another store opened in Salem, said Stephen Gale, director of real estate acquisition for Lowes Western regional office in Carlsbad, Calif. “There are additional opportunities in the Portland metro market (and in Pacific) Northwest communities we are working on,” Gale said.

More than Meets the Eye Risk managers dont have to satisfy a formal education requirement to get their jobs, but they still ought to be conversant with the content of insurance contracts. That familiarity, however, has a downside because it can be the source of a false sense of security. When they talk about appraisal under the terms of a property policy, textbooks, instructional materials and, instructors have, always had a tendency to presume that the parties have resolved all coverage issues before they resort to appraisal. Thats probably the effect of common sense lurking in the subconscious and exerting a powerful influence over what gets written or spoken. An appraisal is an expensive proposition and each party has to bear a share of the cost. Because the appraiser cant consider coverage issues, the thing to do is resolve them before incurring the expense of an appraisal. Thats just common sense.
A house in Hampstead that has hidden its north London origins behind a new Japanese personality, has just come on the market. Two adjoining houses in Fitzjohns Avenue were replanned and redesigned with specially selected materials. A stream runs along the full length of the properties (which are reached by means of a slatted bridge) and a sunken Japanese garden is filled with pebbles, ferns and bamboo. One of the houses only is for sale at an asking price of pounds 435,000 through Goldschmidt Howland (0171-435 4404). The main bedroom has a low-level custom-made Japanese platform bed and sliding shoji cupboards made from yellow rice paper. Housebuilders have just had their busiest month for two years and the prospects look good, according to the latest report for the House Builders Federation. New homes have increased their market share to almost 13 per cent from the 10 per cent at which they had been stuck since 1988. John Stewart, an independent housing economist and author of the report, says they are managing to fill a gap in the market because of sensitive prices and attractive marketing. “When I did some research with the Halifax we found a lack of confidence among intending homebuyers: they were not sure they would be able to sell their present homes. In buying a new home the hassle-free factor is very important,” he said. This bears out evidence from builders such as Barratt of a new breed of buyer at the top end of the market who, frustrated by the lack of good property available, is turning to developers for the first time. The success of Barratts award-winning development, Lakeside Grange, in Weybridge, Surrey, looks like being matched by its latest enterprise on the River Thames at Chiswick. At the recent opening of Royal Thames Crescent, all but three of the 19 five-bedroom houses and 13 two-bedroom apartments, with prices ranging up to pounds 600,000, have been sold.

Legal Research
LEGAL SERVICESThe high costs of retaining a lawyer often make it seem as if competent legal services are out of reach of most small business owners. But there are reasonably priced methods of obtaining such services, such as pre-paid plans and legal software. In addition, experts emphasize the dangers of entering into legal agreements without first obtaining advice from a qualified attorney. In many cases, this attempt to cut corners can turn small problems into big problems for small business owners. Perhaps your tax structure is not to your best advantage, or you are not adequately protected from liability, Charles Poling noted in the New Mexico Business Journal. If youre in a regulated business, you might run afoul of the law simply because you havent gotten educated by your lawyer. Failing to consult with a securities or financial lawyer when youre raising capital can cause serious problems.The type of legal services a small business should obtain varies with the size and age of the business. Exactly what type of lawyer you need depends on what business youre in, and what stage its at, Poling wrote. A general business lawyer can help you as day-to-day questions come up, reviewing contracts and tax questions. But for more complicated matters, you might need a specialist. Just starting up? Find someone who specializes in forming corporations or partnerships. Going public? Find a securities lawyer. Other specialties include environmental law, banking, patenting, copyrighting, medicine, nonprofit corporations, employment law, and so on.
Consider adding a legal service plan to your employee perks A recent study found that three lawsuits are filed every second in the United States. That means most people are more likely to be involved in some sort of legal action over the next year than to be hospitalized. And, many of those people will be your credit unions employees. Employers struggling with a tight job market are learning that providing legal services as a benefit is a low-cost, low-hassle incentive for prospective and current employees. The plans cost $10-$16 per month for full family coverage and rarely increase in cost no matter how many employees use the services.

MAKING ITS OWN RULES The National Futures Association (NFA) has approved a new forex rule and several rule amendments meant to help the NFA regulate fraud against entities on which it had no jurisdiction before. The changes are also independent of the CFTC reauthorization, which is focusing on forex regulation and CFTC jurisdiction regarding non-futures contracts. The new rule, Compliance Rule 2-39, prohibits all NFA members who introduce retail forex customers to or manage retail forex accounts with any counterparty from engaging in illegal off-exchange transactions or fraud. The rule also requires members to supervise their employees and agents. These requirements previously applied only to members who were doing business with forex dealer members, and now associates who conduct retail forex business with other counterparties are subject to the same requirements as members.
Currency traders face complexities and nuances come tax time. Cash forex can be an accounting nightmare and you face higher ordinary tax rates, unless you elect out of IRC 988 for 60/40 treatment. When it comes to trading in currencies, special tax rules apply. There are two distinct types of currency trading and each has profound differences in tax and accounting rules. Even before you start trading, figure out whether you are trading section 1256 or section 988 contracts.

IDAHO DEMOCRATIC PARTY THE IDAHO Democratic Party, flailing in a state that has no elected Democrats in major offices, recently decided it needed to do something to rejuvenate its network of supporters. The way to do this, the Democrats concluded, was on the Internet. The party hired Craig Williams and his start-up Internet company, Voterdirect.com, to work with them. Williams, using his background in marketing, public relations and Web design, created a site that will not only revolutionize GOTV and fundraising techniques for the party but will be helpful to any voter that may come upon it.
Its a difficult confession for me to make, being a style leader and all that, but Im having a serious problem with the Eighties revival. I know its all fabulously post-modern and ironic, and I dare say Im still just bitter about not copping off with Simon Le Bon in my teens, but dancing to “Dont You Want Me” on a Monday night just isnt twiddling my knobs second time around. Which is a shame, because I seem to be going to more and more parties where the Eighties are de rigeur. This week, for example, I went to the super-duper-hipsky launch party for Sheryl Garratts excellent book Adventures in Wonderland: A Decade of Club Culture. Im afraid, under the circumstances, the book would have been better named A Decade in Culture Club. But there you go, too late now. Still, Sheryl Garratt was really lovely, although not quite what you would expect of an ex-The Face editor. Big, bouncy and friendly, her silver shirt battened down like armour from the neck to the sleeves, youd be forgiven for thinking that Garratts never been near a club in her life.

Word power 24 boob-job n. employment gained as a result of a surgically enhanced chest cosmetic adj. superficial; only attending to the surface
Restorative breast surgery was first reported in the medical literature in 1893,[1] but the development of the silicone breast implant in 1960 marked the true birth of this procedure. In the past 30 years, an estimated 2 million women in the United States have undergone implantation of breast prostheses. Approximately 700,000 have had reconstructive breast surgery after mastectomy,[2-5] and 1.3 million have undergone augmentation.[3,6] While augmentation is the procedure most frequently associated with the term cosmetic breast surgery, the field also includes reduction mammoplasty and reconstructive breast surgery following mastectomy for carcinoma. Although surgeons often provide longitudinal follow-up for patients who have undergone breast procedures, family physicians are becoming increasingly involved in the medical care of these patients, in part because of the growth of gatekeeper health-care systems and the mobility of American society. Thus, it is essential that family physicians understand current surgical procedures, the structural breast changes following surgery and the influence of this surgery on preventive health screening.

MANILA, Oct. 8 Kyodo In the largely Roman Catholic Philippines, the Christian holiday Christmas, it sometimes seems, lasts almost forever. Already malls and shopping centers in Manila have started the annual tradition of decorating their stores with Christmas adornments to spark interest in the Yuletide paraphernalia such as trees, wreaths and poinsettias they sell. And fully decorated Christmas trees from several centimeters to several meters tall are already landmarks within and outside many commercial establishments.

Christmas trees, candy canes and Santa Clauses are taking their place alongside, pinatas, nativity scenes and colored streamers in Mexicos decorating for the Christmas holidays. And the result has been the creation of a $9-million-plus market for imported Christmas trees, roughly 95 percent of which come from the United States.Mexicans take pride in decorating for Christmas. Both plastic and natural trees are used in most households, offices and commercial shops.Preferred sizes are 4.5, 5.5 and 6.5 feet high. Prices range from $7.50 to $30 for domestic trees and $15 to $45 for imported trees.

FRITH STREET GALLERY Banner achieves a remarkable range of forms by expanding full stops in different fonts to 1800 point size and then projecting them into three-dimensional objects: cubes, spheres, ellipsoids, and other less orthodox shapes of quite varying sizes. Placed around the floor of the gallery, these sculptural presences require the viewer to navigate a passage through the space rather than simply move across it, recalling the way in which periods help populate the narrative landscape with identifiable features to be negotiated. With Banners “Full Stops,” the deliberation involved in such maneuvers is particularly striking because of the otherwise ephemeral nature of the works. Being polystyrene, a disposable substance that usually occupies the space around an object (in packaging, for instance), they possess only a qualified palpability. Conversely, it is the drawings of periods in the same enlarged point size, with their thickly overworked blocks of solid graphite, that signify a more thorough-going materiality. Pl aced low on large sheets of paper, as a period appears at the base of a line of type, the dense sheen of the graphite seems to weigh down the lower edge of the paper, which is only loosely fastened to the wall. Seen in conjunction with one another, the sculptures and drawings cause a sequence of slippages between image, word (both written and spoken), object, and idea. Beyond all this is the knowledge that these works are made possible only through the incorporation of computer technology into the printing process. A “dot matrix” period, for example, is four circles arranged in a square, while the “Grafitti” stop drawing explodes Outward from a central area into a spray of droplets and “ink” mist, myriad carefully worked blobs and dots that cover much of the paper. Here, type is revealed as a set of instructions within which it is possible to incorporate the workings of chance, so that each period, even if it is recognizably in the same font, is unique.
BANNER ADVERTISEMENTSAlthough purchasing advertising space on Web sites can be expensive, it is an increasingly important marketing tactic for small businesses seeking to establish an online presence. Experts suggest that Internet advertisingwhether through banners or through smaller, sponsored by notes on Web sitesis the easiest and most effective way to encourage potential customers to visit your companys Web site. In addition, sophisticated new Web technology allows small businesses to focus their advertising dollars on specific geographic or demographic groups. Web-page sponsorship quickly increases traffic at your site by giving you almost instant access to the established viewer bases of other sites, Paul J. Dowling wrote in Web Advertising and Marketing. Your company canand shouldsponsor as many Web sites as it can afford, but you should be somewhat selective about the sites you sponsor. Be sure the sites you choose are of a general nature or are in some way related to your field of business. And make absolutely certain they dont conflict with the goals and/or themes of your site.

Little present recently on CNBC: 1) A typical banking transaction, which costs one dollar, will only cost one cent when conducted over the Internet! 2) A typical brokers transaction, which costs $150, will only cost $6 when conducted over the Internet! Do you wonder why e-commerce, which is a direct result of Internet marketing, is experiencing explosive growth?
