More than 60,000 muggers and louts should NOT be jailed each year, say prison bosses
More than 60,000 muggers, burglars and yobs would escape jail every year under a scheme proposed by prison governors.
They say jail sentences of less than 12 months should be abolished, with criminals given community punishments instead.
This would slash the number of people sent to jail annually by more than two-thirds.
The prison population is approaching 84,000 and governors say numbers could be cut by abolishing jail for offenders with 12-month sentences or less
But critics warn the proposal will make the justice system 'soft' and claim that community services are a poor deterrent or punishment for such crimes.
The plan would also abolish the power of magistrates to send a criminal to jail. Currently, they cannot normally order jail sentences that exceed six months.
Prison places cost around £38,000 a year. The Prison Governors Association argues that, in the current financial crisis there is not enough money to afford short jail terms for convicts.
Today the PGA's president Paul Tidball will tell its annual conference: 'Prison, the most expensive disposal option for the courts, should be reserved for those of highest risk to communities and citizens.
'This principle made sense before. It is the more compelling now we really can't afford, literally, to be locking people up unnecessarily, ineffectually, and so pointlessly.'
In 2007, 64,315 of the 95,208 criminals sentenced to immediate custody by the courts were imprisoned for 12 months or less.
Commonly, they include thieves, muggers, shoplifters, some burglars and drunken louts involved in street violence.
The PGA conference will debate a resolution calling for such sentences to be abolished, arguing it is 'deplorable' that the prison population has reached 84,000.
Mr Tidball said he expected the resolution to attract 'obvious and probably unanimous support'.
There were 84,354 inmates in the British jail system as of last Friday, despite around 2,500 being released more than two weeks early from their sentences every month.
Ministers have pledged to increase prison capacity to 96,000 by 2014, but these spaces are expected to be immediately filled.
Criminologist David Green described the PGA's idea as 'deeply misguided' and 'perverse'.
He said keeping criminals in jail actually saved money, compared with the wider costs of their reoffending upon release.
Dr Green, director of the Civitas think-tank, added: 'The effectiveness argument is that people leave prison after short sentences and reoffend, and they blame that on prison.
'I blame that on releasing them. They are released when they should not be.
'The problem in this country is we give short sentences to people who should serve longer sentences.'
Tory justice spokesman Dominic Grieve said: 'Gordon Brown failed to provide enough prison capacity, first as Chancellor and then as Prime Minister.
'The answer to the current overcrowding-crisis is to build enough prison places to relieve pressure on governors and set a system in place to reform and rehabilitate offenders.'
In his speech, Mr Tidball will also warn that cuts and overcrowding could lead to 'widespread disorder' within the prisons system.
He will quote from an email from another governor warning of the potential for sustained violence.
Mr Tidball will add: 'The potential catastrophe of widespread disorder resulting from foolhardy cuts takes the debate to another level.'
The Government has itself voiced frustration at the use of shorter jail sentences, and wants fewer convicts sent to jail.
Ex-home secretary Charles Clarke said he believed many of the criminals given a year or less in jail would be better served by community punishments.
A Ministry of Justice spokesman said: 'We are clear that prison is the right place for the most serious, violent and persistent offenders, and we will always provide enough prison places for those who should be behind bars.
'But it is not always the right answer for less serious offenders, for whom tough community sentences can be more effective in terms of turning them away from crime and therefore giving greater protection to the public than short custodial sentences.
'However we believe it is important for the judiciary to have a range of options open to them - in some cases a period in prison will be necessary to deal with some offenders.'
* An internet game has outraged privacy campaigners by offering cash prizes to players who spot crimes taking place on live feeds from CCTV cameras.
'Internet Eyes' will initially use cameras in shops and businesses in Stratford-upon-Avon, but there are plans to take it nationwide.
Charles Farrier, of the No-CCTV pressure group, said: 'It will encourage a dangerous spying mentality by turning crime into a game.'

Serial abuser who threw TV at victim spared jail
A sheriff has provoked anger by allowing a businessman who violently abused several women to avoid jail.
Jamie Doak, 41, assaulted a succession of partners, hurling a television at one and leaving another severely injured, over a period of 13 years.
He told Perth sheriff court he was wealthy and could afford to pay his victims £500 a month in compensation if he was not sent to prison.
Sheriff Christopher Shead ordered the serial abuser to carry out 240 hours of unpaid work.
Doak, of Auchterarder, Perthshire, had insisted he was the victim of an elaborate vendetta, alleging that the town’s “small-minded” residents had colluded to portray him as bullying and abusive.
A jury dismissed his account and found Doak, operations manager of a steel

There was a question on my Yahoo! Answers –
Cant open my jaw fully?
I still can’t my mouth completely after two weeks following my oral surgery (wisdom teeth).
Will this fix itself or should I do something?
And my answer was…
First of all, just relax.
Dont think much about this problem –it is a very common problem and is usually self-limiting in all the cases.
I dont recommend any medicines for this after two weeks of removal of wisdom tooth.
Just keep on munching some sugar-free chewing gum which would have an exercise (physiotherapy) like effect on your jaws. Just for a few days.
If you still feel pain over the jaw (which i am sure you dont have!) on the side where surgery was done, just apply some hot fomentation.
This problem will fix itself.
Just take it easy!!

Austria’s Alpine Amazon
Austria’s Anna Fenninger fulfilled the huge potential she showed as a youngster by reaching the pinnacle of women’s Alpine skiing in 2014, winning gold and silver at the Olympic Winter Games in Sochi and the overall FIS World Cup title.
Raised on skis
Born in Hallein, Salzburg, Anna Fenninger enjoyed a childhood that revolved around sport, and in particular skiing, proving so gifted at it that she completed her secondary education at the Bad Gastein Ski Race Academy. Her early life followed a similar path to that of her compatriot Marcel Hirscher. Born in the same year, they also went to school together. “We grew up in the same region and we skied with each other a lot when we were children,” she explained. “We went to the same school, were in the same class and we competed in races together. It’s a lovely story.”
Like Marcel, she lived up to expectations and went on to become a world number one. “There was a lot of pressure on me,” she said, though she responded to it by tasting success in the European Cup and at the Junior World Championships, where she won six medals between 2006 and 2009, four of them gold.
Fast track to success
A superb technician, Fenninger competed across all the Alpine disciplines at in the early stages of her career, making her FIS World Cup debut in the slalom at Levi (FIN) in November 2006. It was not long, however, before she narrowed her focus in a bid to reach the very top: “When I was 20 I decided to stop competing in every event because I wasn’t physically fit enough. So I decided to concentrate first and foremost on the super-G and the downhill, which has helped me.”
In 2011 Fenninger won the world super combined title at Garmisch-Partenkirchen (GER) and scored her first World Cup win in the giant slalom at Lienz (AUT) that same year, one in which she was also named Austrian sport’s Breakthrough Star of the Year.
A winter to remember
By the time the countdown to Sochi 2014 had begun, Fenninger had established herself as a major force in four events: giant slalom, super-G, downhill and super combined. She made a superb start to the Olympic season, securing a string of podium finishes in the World Cup. However, when the Games finally came around, she endured disappointment in her opening event, going out in the downhill after posting some excellent split times.
She would not be denied in the super-G, however, drawing on all her resources on an extremely demanding course to win by over half a second from the great Maria Höfl-Riesch. “For me, the adrenaline is very high in super-G,” she said afterwards. “That’s what I like, when I go fast. It’s the best day of my life. It had been a big dream of mine for a long time, and today it came true. Today is my day.” In the giant slalom three days later, she atoned for an uncharacteristic mistake in the first run with a flawless second descent to take the silver medal, just 0.07 seconds behind Tina Maze.
Icing on the cake
Buoyed by her Sochi double, Fenninger enjoyed with a storming finish to the season, winning back-to-back giant slalom races at Are (SWE) before heading to Lenzerheide (SUI) for the FIS World Cup finale, with overall points leader Höfl-Riesch firmly in her sights. Twenty-four hours after finishing sixth in a downhill race in which the German fell heavily, Fenninger took second place in the super-G to become the first Austrian to win the overall World Cup title since Michaela Dorfmeister in 2002. She celebrated a season-ending win in the giant slalom to take the crystal globe in that event as well.
When it was all over she posed for a photo with her old classmate Hirscher, the winner of the men’s overall title for the third time running, together with their collection of crystal globes. Posting the image on her Facebook wall, she wrote: “We did it”. It is a ritual that may well be repeated on a regular basis in the years ahead.

The synthesis of Δ3-(l ,3,4)-oxadiazoline 6 was obtained via the intermediate of Δ1-pyrazoline 3 which is unstable, but in this case it was stabilised by the formation of the oxadiazoline 6 itself. Nevertheless, at 0°C, the intermediate of Δ1-pyrazoline 3 always rearranged by proton migration to give exclusively the more stable Δ2-pyrazoline 4.

Fe(NO)2(PPh3)2 and Fe(NO)2I(PPh3)2 Complexes, in solution, and supported by fonctionalized polymers have been used as catalysts in the oxidation of cyclohexene by molecular oxygen (O2). Moreover, it has been found that this oxidation involves the group nitro-nitrosyle coordinated to iron. In contrast, the complex: Fe(NO)2(PPh3)2 does not present any reactivity towards the oxidation reaction of cyclohexene, indeed the oxidation causes an alteration of the ligand (when the complex in solution is used) or a loss of the metal on the support. Furthermore, the selectivity induced by the complex supported Fe(NO)2I(PPh3)2, is different from the one induced by homologous complex in solution. As a matter of fact, the complex in solution provides the epoxide in 22% yield, whereas the supported one leads to the formation of three compounds: epoxide 22 % cyclohexenol 40 % and cyclohexenone 33%.
We have used Juncus fontanesii to eliminate the lead and copper from pure aqueous solutions containing these metals at 50, 100, 150 and 300mg/l. The densities of the fresh biomass were 2.8 and 5.6 kg/m2. This study, without adding nutritive elements, shows that we can eliminate more than 99% of lead within 3 to 12 days and copper within 12 to 21 days. 50 to 80 % of the metal are fixed by the roots, the remaining is located at the leafs and stems. When the concentration is higher than 100 mg/I, plant releases part of the copper to the medium. During the experiment the plants did not display any visual sign of perturbation.

A synthesis route of MFI type zeolites consist a in replacing the usually mineralizer OH- anions by F- anions. This allows crystallization in wide range of pH (alkaline and non alkaline media). In alkaline fluoride media at pH 10-12, the synthesis was carried out under mild operating conditions (T=90-100°C) during 5 days. In view of this, we have performed a series of experiments in order to obtain the optimal composition of gel mixture, which leads to pure phase, without any undesired impurity. The as- synthesized samples were characterized with various techniques (XRD, IR, MEB).

The orientation of three iodobenzenes (C6H5I, o.C6H4I2, p.C6H4I2) in three nematic liquid crystals with different aromaticities has been determined by measuring the proton-proton and the proton-carbon 13 dipolar couplings. Assuming a solvent-solute interaction potential based entirely on dispersion forces, it was found that the less aromatic the solvent the better the agreement between theory and experience. The discrepancies are probably due to the formation of charge-transfer molecular complexes.

Starting from sclareol 2 , Anthrax® 5 has been constructed by two separate, three steps pathways, via sclareolide 1, or via sclareol oxide 3. In the first synthesis the key reactions are formation of sclareolide 1 from sclareol by oxidative degradation with O3/peroxides/NaOH, and its reduction to the diol 4 with LiAlH4. The second sequence involves the synthesis of sclareol oxide 3 , which is concerted by reaction with ozone and in situ reduction with NaBH4 to the diol 4. Cyclisation of diol 4 obtained by either method, then yields Ambrox 5.

Stomach Balloons Get New Warning Following Deaths
The FDA has issued fresh warnings regarding the possible risk of death in patients who have liquid-filled stomach balloons designed to promote weight loss. In the majority of the cases, patients died within a month.
According to the FDA, the intragastric balloon systems are weight-loss systems that function by taking up space in a patient's stomach. In a minimally invasive endoscopic procedure, the balloons are placed into the patient's stomach through the mouth. After the balloon fixes the position, it is filled with saline solution. The procedure limits the amount a person can eat and helps them feel fuller faster.
It is the third time the FDA has issued alerts about the products. Prior to the current notice, the agency had also issued alerts in February and August 2017. Since the agency's last warning, five more patients have died worldwide. Four of these deaths were due to gastric perforation 1 day to 3.5 weeks after the balloon was placed. Not enough information was available regarding the fifth death. This inclined the total number of deaths to 12 since 2016.
The stomach balloons are designed to remain in place for several months, while patients receive counseling on diet, exercise, and healthy lifestyle changes. Two types of liquid-filled balloon systems have been on the market since 2015: the ReShape Integrated Dual Balloon System and the Orbera Intragastric Balloon System. Four of the five new cases are related to the Orbera Intragastric Balloon system made by Apollo Endosurgery Inc. and one to the ReShape Integrated Dual Balloon System made by ReShape Lifesciences.
In clinical trials for both devices, patients lost at least twice as much weight with these procedures than with diet and exercise alone.
In collaboration with the manufacturers, the FDA has approved new labeling for the Orbera and ReShape balloon systems with more information about possible deaths associated with the use of these devices. The balloons are intended to be placed for a maximum of 6 months. Clinicians should warn patients of the possible complications, including balloon deflation, gastrointestinal obstruction, ulceration, and gastric and esophageal perforation. Patients should be closely monitored during treatment for acute pancreatitis and spontaneous hyperinflation.

Rotterdam the largest port in the world? Likely
51° 54′ 33.7644” N 4° 29′ 57.264” E
12. juli 2013
The exit through the port of Rotterdam is indescribably exciting. Dynamic. Everything is incredibly large. The cranes, docks, tugs and warehouses. Kilometre after kilometre this huge port stretches itself. Through thirty unbroken kilometres side branch follows side branch, docks follows docks, crane follows crane. The largest port in the world? It is likely.
Cargo ships entering. Cargo ships on the way out. Huge. Small. Crawling into and out of the side channels. In the beginning only a few. During the early morning it becomes more. The port awakens. Rotterdam is in the process of getting the day into gear.
We got up at 6:30 and said goodbye to Rotterdam before the clock hit seven. The harbour master in Stifting Verhagen Rotterdam – in combination with our own still a little hesitant calculations – told us that we get the most nudge in the back of the tide, if we start a little before high tide in Rotterdam and capture the southbound tide at the Maas River estuary off the Hoek van Holland. We do. The plan works.
Seven knots and later eight and a half knots, our speed through the English Channel, where we changed to go by sail in stead of motor, while we blissfully eat Kirsten’s homemade muffins with Dutch cheese and Italian sausage, sleeping half an hour alternately and otherwise enjoying a leisurely sail. High speed but completely under control because neither wind nor wave height is scary.
The Dutch have mastered the security of their inland waterway system. We change dutifully channel on VHF each time a sign on the country proclaims, that VHF channels now change to a new number, but we fail to call the station every time we come to a new VHF station, which had been recommended by the harbour master of Rotterdam City Marina. We sail gently. We are in control. Big brother in the Maas River control towers do not hear from us.
On the way out of the Maas exit we get called by a control tower.
“The yacht that just left the harbour entrance please report!”
“Southbound or northbound?”
“Have you seen the vessel just behind you?”
“Yes, we are intending to cross the traffic-line, just after they pass”
“Two more ships are coming in, please wait and keep to this channel.”
Later, we are contacted again by the control tower and asked to turn to the south, after the last of the two incoming vessels have passed. The vessels are sailing in columns on the deep-water route to the Maas River and Rotterdam. The day is really waking up. Rotterdam moves up a notch, while we have said farewell to a dutch adventure, that has lasted almost a year.
Log-book: Sailed distance: 75 nautical miles with the tide in the back of the Maas River and down to South Holland and Belgium. Time: Departure 6.50 from Rotterdam. In Zeebrugge, Belgium, 17.00. Crew: Kirsten and Per. Weather: North western wind maximum 7 meters per second. Wave height: 1 meter

Late fees for dog licenses in Lilac City start June 1
ROCHESTER — Dog licenses are due for renewal every year by April 30. The fees for licensing dogs are: $7.50 for puppies under seven months old and for neutered or spayed dogs; $10 for adult dogs not neutered or spayed; and $3 for dogs owned by senior citizens over the age of 65.
After June 1, the Clerk’s office will assess a late fee of $1 per month per dog in addition to the required licensing fee.
Dogs that are not licensed in a timely manner will be subject to a civil forfeiture levied by the police department in the amount of $25 per dog, plus a $5 administrative fee.
Owners who fail to license their dogs and who have not paid the Civil Forfeiture (if applicable) may be subject to a summons from the police department to be paid at the District Court. The fine would be $62 per dog.
It is New Hampshire state law that all dogs be licensed every year and their rabies vaccinations need to be up to date. Veterinarians are required to forward rabies certificates to the City Clerk’s office, thus alerting the Clerk to the owner’s compliance with state law.
It would be appreciated if owners keep the Clerk’s office informed of any change in their dog’s registration, such as the death of the pet, giving the pet away, or moving out of the city.

Some Marlins players reportedly happy to see Hanley Ramirez go
The Marlins first season under Ozzie Guillen has been a disappointment. After building a brand new ballpark and making some significant splashes in free agency during the offseason, nobody expect Miami to turn into sellers at the trade deadline. Now that they have, it makes sense that Hanley Ramirez was the first to go. His career with the Marlins has been a frustrating roller coaster both on the field and off of it. While some of Hanley’s former teammates — including Jose Reyes — said they were sad to see him go, others are reportedly relieved.
According to the Miami Herald, one anonoymous player said a number of people in the organization were happy when Ramirez was traded to the Dodgers.
“There were a lot of smiles,” the player said. “They created a monster from a very good baseball player — gave him so much slack to do whatever the (expletive) he wanted because he was performing.
“You can push some things aside when you’re hitting .340 with 40 home runs. You say ‘He’s a (jerk), but I can deal with it. … But when you’re not playing and you’re trying to be that same (jerk), it starts rubbing people the wrong way.”
Guillen defended Ramirez when the trade first happened and said it would be stupid to blame him for the troubles the team has had this season. However, he also agreed that Hanley has hardly been productive. When asked what he will do with the lineup now that his starting third baseman is gone, Guillen provided an honest response.
“Nothing,” he said. “Because he wasn’t producing.”
When Reyes first joined the Marlins, many believed Ramirez would be angry about having to move to third and that his days in Miami were numbered. The two infielders seemed to hit it off, but Ramirez clearly wore out his welcome anyway. We wondered if things were turning around when Hanley called a players-only meeting during a losing streak earlier this year, but it obviously wasn’t enough. Time will tell if he will be a producer or simply a problem for the Dodgers.

Been in Stockholm this week working with a new project for Royal Mail, through North Kingdom, Above is a picture from NK's Stockholm office, Peter's having fun showing of his iPhone, and in the back you can spot a great canvas print by Jon Burgerman. Sorry for the image quality, it's taken with my mobile phone :P
Also went to see a concert with "why?", really nice but you can't help longing for the old days and the hearing older tracks such as "cold lunch". But still picked up a nice cd with demo versions of all songs from his latest album.
Just finished a project together with Erik at "formavd" called Gratiskondomer.nu, made a 15 second animated spot for the cinema this week, will put up a QT of it when it has been released.
And yeah last but not least a new t-shirt design I'm working on but it's not really finished yet it will probably be reconfigured a few more times before I'm happy with it. Anyway it's called "Edison I've fixed my glasses like new" maybe you can make out the words :)

Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn images and artwork released
Screenshots demonstrate a return to Tolkien-esque fantasy for Square Enix's latest adventure.
Michael Plant is chief editor and writer of gaming ezine and blog GamesCatalyst.com, as well as editor of 'The Independent'’s games review printed in the Saturday supplement 'Information'. Established in February 2011, Games Catalyst endeavours to bring its unique brand of fact and satire to the videogaming community and, in tandem with 'The Independent', hopefully turn a few non-believers on to gaming while we’re at it.
Thursday 11 October 2012
Square Enix has released the first screenshots of Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn for PS3 and PC. The online role-playing game is set on the planet of Hydaelyn and sees players team up to take on a multitude of monsters and hostile forces as the ‘Garlean Empire masses its troops for invasion, while the native beastmen tribes summon their deities.’
The screenshots also demonstrate the PlayStation 3 user interface (UI) which has been created to make logical use of the button configuration of the console’s controllers. The UI is set to be fully customisable and so allow players to set up a button configuration perfect for their personal playing style, one of the shots even suggesting the presence of a XMB style crossbar that PS3 users will be so familiar with.
Square Enix claims the control scheme has been ‘designed with traditional Final Fantasy game controls in mind, to give the game a classic RPG feel,’ presumably to ease fans of the franchise into what it almost certain to be a more complex experience than that of the offline Final Fantasy games.
Amongst the screenshots are images of the magaical Primals, said to have a ‘big part to play’ in the game’s storyline, as well as examples of a few of the armour sets available for the Chocobo mounts available as transport for your chosen character.
No release date has yet been confirmed for Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn but it’s expected at some point next year.

How is it that in his second soliloquy, on the departure of the Ghost, he again says nothing about her.
Another reason why he rejects her is that marriage itself has become abhorrent to him. It is only after having gone away and come back, after Ophelia's death, after having meditated again and again that he will finally accomplished his mission.
But it hit him hard when he saw the woman he loved in her grave and dead that he threw himself at her and told Laertes that he loved her "more than 40 brothers ever could have loved".
When he stabs her father in Act 3, scene 4, he not once shows remorse for killing someone Ophelia loves. At a time when women were totally submitted to their husbands, he would have had to be responsible for her.
He does not appeal to God for help when he meditates.
This is the only time before her death that Hamlet reveals his true feelings of love to Ophelia. Telling her he never loved her and to go to the nunnery was the ultimate act of love. Does it mean that his love was not sincere. He has to face his dilemmas alone.
Hamlet is sweet and blameless at this point, and so is Ophelia. When the lover is feeling that he must make a complete break with his past, why does it not occur to him at once that he must give up his hopes of happiness in love.
What is important at that stage in the play is that Hamlet doesn't know what he's going to do yet. And, even if he did regard them as somehow means to these ends, is it conceivable that he would have uttered them, if his feeling for her were one of hopeless but unmingled love.
He has to feign madness to be able to come out and do it. If Ophelia had not listened to her brother, Laertes, and obeyed her father, Polonius, things might have been different between the two lovers. I cannot believe that he ever dreamed of confiding his secret to her. She exits after bidding everyone a "good night".
What he said was true, if I may put it thus, of the inner healthy self which doubtless in time would have fully reasserted itself; but it was only partly true of the Hamlet whom we see in the play. Claudius agrees to try the eavesdropping plan later. If the popular theory is true, how is it that neither in the Nunnery-scene nor at the play-scene does Shakespeare insert anything to make the truth plain.
The actor who plays the part of Hamlet must make up his mind as to the interpretation of every word and deed of the character. And after all, feigning not to love her anymore, he frees himself from this responsibility.
This is the position in which I find myself in regard to Hamlet's love for Ophelia. Hamlet, nearby, then challenges Laertes and claims that he loved Ophelia more than "forty thousand" brothers could.
Soprano Mignon Nevada as Ophelia in the opera Hamletcirca Name[ edit ] As with virtually all Hamlet characters, Ophelia's name is not Danish. There are signs that Hamlet was haunted by the horrible idea that he had been deceived in Ophelia as he had been in his mother; that she was shallow and artificial, and even that what had seemed simple and affectionate love might really have been something very different.
He dares him to do crazy things like "eating a crocodile", and like Laertes, wishes to be buried in the young woman's grave, trying here again to outface him. Throughout the play there are examples to support the fact that Hamlet did not really love her.
Hamlet was trying to protect Ophelia from being involved with the revenge he was planning against Claudius. For example, his behaviour at the play-scene seems to me to show an intention to hurt and insult; but in the Nunnery-scene which cannot be discussed briefly he is evidently acting a part and suffering acutely, while at the same time his invective, however exaggerated, seems to spring from real feelings; and what is pretence, and what sincerity, appears to me an insoluble problem.
So why would he say that if he did not love her?. And psychologically it is quite sound, for a frequent symptom of such melancholy as Hamlet's is a more or less complete paralysis, or even perversion, of the emotion of love. But Hamlet has no reason to hate Laertes.
How is it that in his first soliloquy Hamlet makes no reference whatever to Ophelia. The only people who are dark and spiteful at this point are those who are working to dissuade Ophelia from loving Hamlet.
The other calamities mentioned by Hamlet, 'the oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely, the law's delay, the insolence of office, and the spurns that patient merit of the unworthy takes,' are not at all specially his own. Throughout the play he shows concern for her well being and state of mind.
But for him, the choice is not so simple. Hamlet does not, as the popular theory supposes, break with Ophelia directly after the Ghost appears to him; on the contrary, he tries to see her and sends letters to her ii.
Indeed when one is in love, especially if this love is shared, which was the case here, one is supposed to make the beloved one happy. Laertes warns her that Hamlet, the heir to the throne of Denmarkdoes not have the freedom to marry whomever he wants.
He has to feign madness to be able to come out and do it.
Does Hamlet Really Love Ophelia? Shakespeare's "Hamlet" strikes many literary chords and themes. It primarily chronicles a quest for revenge, political intrigue and a slow desecent into madness.
But underneath all the drama, hatred and back-stabbing plots, the text describes a love story between Hamlet the protagonist and the Prince of Denmark. Yes, Hamlet did love Ophelia at some point before the play began, and we know this because: 1) Ophelia tells her father that Hamlet has "importuned me with love in an honorable fashion" (Act I, Scene 3, line ), when her father tries to persuade her out of falling in love with Hamlet.
Hamlet's Love for Ophelia From Shakespearean Tragedy by A. C. Bradley. The actor who plays the part of Hamlet must make up his mind as to the interpretation of every word and deed of the character. Hamlet really did love Ophelia, and tells Laertes, “Be buried quick with her, and so will I” (V.i).
Hamlet expresses how sad he is over losing her, and that he is just as sad as Laertes. Observing the play Hamlet (Delbanco), written by William Shakespeare, leaves many people questioning whether or not Hamlet really loved Ophelia.
The majority of people would say that Hamlet did not really love Ophelia. Throughout the play there are examples to support the fact that Hamlet. The actor playing Hamlet doesn't need to know if he's in love with Ophelia, but he needs to know if he believes he's in love with her -- or if he believes he isn't but actually is.
The conclusion we've reached is that he both loves her and hates her, and that these feelings are so extreme, love can flip to hate (or the other way around) in a split second.Did hamlet love ophelia

CHIPMAKER Intel has licensed near field communications (NFC) technology to use in its chips.
Intel, which harbours ambitions of entering the smartphone chip business, has signed a deal with Inside Secure to use its NFC technologies in future products. The deal will see Inside Secure provide Intel with access to its Microread, Securead and Open NFC products.
Aicha Evans, VP and general manager of Intel's mobile wireless group said, "NFC is gaining traction in many markets as one of the most convenient ways to use consumer electronic devices for payments and retail commerce transactions, for access to facilities and information and a host of other applications."
Evans' comments highlight the impending explosion of NFC in mobile devices. It is not surprising that Intel wants its mobile chipsets to include NFC support as Google pushes its Wallet payment service.
Intel needs to launch a competitive smartphone chipset in 2012 with many devices in production if it is to have any chance of overtaking ARM vendors such as Qualcomm, Texas Instruments and Nvidia. Windows 8 should help Chipzilla gain some tablet market share but the real gold is in smartphones, where questions still remain as to whether the broad application support afforded by Intel's x86 architecture is such a big selling point.
For Intel the tie-up with Inside Secure hints that the company is, at the very least, trying to come up with a chipset that has feature parity with its rivals. µ

A Delaware Chancery judge dominated Thursday that Elon Musk has till Oct. 28 to shut his acquisition of Twitter if he needs to avoid a trial.
Earlier within the day, the Telsa CEO stated he wished to return to his authentic settlement to purchase Twitter for $54.20 a share, and requested the social media firm to finish all litigation so as to shut the deal. Twitter refused to oblige.
In a submitting with Delaware’s Court of Chancery on Thursday, Musk’s aspect stated Twitter ought to drop the courtroom date scheduled for Oct. 17, in order that the required financing could be pulled collectively to wrap up the acquisition by Oct. 28.
“Twitter will not take yes for an answer,” the submitting says. “Astonishingly, they have insisted on proceeding with this litigation, recklessly putting the deal at risk and gambling with their stockholders’ interests.”
In a submitting afterward Thursday, Twitter countered and stated it disagrees with Musk’s assertion that the corporate is unwilling to settle for the deal. Rather, Twitter’s attorneys stated the impediment “is that Defendants still refuse to accept their contractual obligations.”
“For months, Defendants have pursued increasingly implausible claims and over and over sought to delay trial on the merits to enforce the Merger Agreement,” the Twitter legal professionals wrote.
Musk’s attorneys allege that by Twitter failing to agree to put aside its litigation, the upcoming courtroom trial would “impede the deal moving forward.”
“Instead of allowing the parties to turn their focus to securing the Debt Financing necessary to consummate the transaction and preparing for a transition of the business, the parties will instead remain distracted by completing discovery and an unnecessary trial,” Musk’s attorneys wrote.
Twitter responded by saying that Musk and his authorized workforce are being disingenuous. Only days earlier than a trial was to begin, Musk’s workforce instantly declares “they intend to close after all,” the legal professionals wrote.
“‘Trust us,’ they say, ‘we mean it this time,’ and so they ask to be relieved from a reckoning on the merits,” Twitter’s aspect stated. “To justify that relief, they propose an order that allows them an indefinite time to close on the basis of a conditional withdrawal of their unlawful notices of termination coupled with an explicit reservation of all ‘claims and defenses in the event a closing does not occur.'”
The Twitter legal professionals added that Musk’s “proposal is an invitation to further mischief and delay.”
Twitter sued Musk in July to try to pressure the world’s richest individual to stick to his buy settlement, which was signed in April. Musk appeared prepared to take the case to courtroom, as legions of his textual content messages had been launched in preliminary filings.
While Twitter shareholders, on the firm’s advice, agreed to Musk’s buy value in September, Twitter might now be reluctant to stroll away from its lawsuit with out certainty that each one the financing is on the market to shut the deal.
Morgan Stanley and Bank of America are among the many banks that initially agreed to present $12.5 billion in debt for Musk. Since then the markets have tanked, notably for dangerous tech belongings.
Musk’s attorneys stated that “By far the most likely possibility is that the debt is funded in which case the deal will close on or around October 28.” The legal professionals added that “counsel for the debt financing parties has advised that each of their clients is prepared to honor its obligations under the Bank Debt Commitment Letter on the terms and subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth therein.”
Twitter stated within the authorized submitting that the Musk events “should be arranging to close on Monday, October 10,” however is as an alternative refusing to (*28*)
“They ask for an open-ended out, at the expense of Twitter’s stockholders (who are owed $44 billion plus interest), all the while remaining free to change their minds again or to invent new grounds to avoid the contract ‘[w]ithout any admission of liability and without waiver of or prejudice to [their] claims and defenses,'” the attorneys wrote.
The Twitter legal professionals additionally alleged that earlier within the day, an unnamed company consultant of one of many main banks concerned within the deal “testified that Mr. Musk has yet to send them a borrowing notice and has not otherwise communicated to them that he intends to close the transaction, let
alone on any particular timeline.”
“The bank further testified that the main task necessary to close the deal —memorializing the debt financing —could have happened in July but didn’t because Mr. Musk purported to terminate the deal,” the Twitter attorneys added.
Earlier this week, Twitter acknowledged that it had obtained the letter from Musk and his attorneys by which they expressed their want to purchase Twitter for the unique agreed-upon value. Twitter stated in a response to the letter that “The intention of the Company is to close the transaction at $54.20 per share.” However, that is the primary time since then that Twitter has commented on the laws.

Duff ’n Stuff, Aug. 7, 2012
This week I welcome my first guest blogger, local poet and friend Joni Takanikos, who has given her poetry blog the title of “In Search of Truth and Beauty.”
It seems appropriate that a poet should ever be a seeker of both the truth of things, and all things beautiful. I can honestly say that Joni is one of those persons who practices such a search each day of her life. Not everyone can get away with such a thing without seeming pretentious, but she does. Perhaps I’m biased being her friend, but I think it is true that Joni is one of those people for whom words follow a through-line of love. Needless to say, where love is sincere, truth and beauty are probably not far behind.
From the heart,
In Search of Truth and Beauty
BY JONI TAKANIKOS
In the realm of poetry, Truth and Beauty are the major characters. If they are present in a poem, the air is rarefied and pure. Because of this, I always invite them in as honored guests. This does not always insure a great poem, but it keeps a poet humble and questing after the elusive nature of the quotient, Truth and Beauty.
Li Young Lee, one of my favorite poets, says that the job of a poet is not to be published, but instead to “chart the invisible.”
In 2011, I took a three month sabbatical to Ireland. Many island folks were curious why I chose Ireland for such a trip. As a writer, poet and musician, I was drawn to a land steeped in those traditions, and I was not disappointed. I even developed an obsession with William Butler Yeats that occupies a large portion of my poet’s inner map.
I love this Yeats poem; it makes my heart soar.
A Crazed Girl
THAT crazed girl improvising her music.
Her poetry, dancing upon the shore,
Her soul in division from itself
Climbing, falling She knew not where,
Hiding amid the cargo of a steamship,
Her knee-cap broken, that girl I declare
A beautiful lofty thing or a thing
Heroically lost, heroically found.
No matter what disaster occurred
She stood in desperate music wound,
Wound, wound, and she made in her triumph
Where the bales and the baskets lay
No common intelligible sound
But sang, ‘O sea-starved, hungry sea.’
I was fortunate to see the Yeats exhibit at the National Library of Ireland in Dublin. It is one of the most lovingly curated exhibits I have seen, and I came away with a greater understanding of “the man,” as many Irish refer to Yeats. He did so much to shape the country both as a senator and as a poet.
Poems often sound like dreams, and often what the reader thinks is a metaphor in a poem is instead more of a concrete pillar. I wrote the following poem based on one of my daughter Jasmine’s experiences growing up here on our lovely Whidbey Island.
Richard Hugo, one of our great Northwest poets, once said, “You found the town, now write the poem.” Here goes…
She woke you at dawn,
Silently led you outside
to witness her stand on
the beach with a fish in her
hand, her eyes gazing upward,
Waiting under the silver orange sky
for the eagle to drop down—
Gracefully pluck the fish from
This is not a fairy tale
about a young girl growing up
on an island in the Puget Sound.
This is you, a young woman
just cresting the hill of
being schooled by your friend’s
Grandmother on how to awaken,
Whom to feed, and how to
Catch the silent dawn
In your hands.

Swiss Bank to Hand Over Account Info
Posted on Aug 19, 2009
Swiss bank accounts aren’t what they used to be. Switzerland recently agreed to fork over information on 4,450 UBS AG bank accounts to the IRS as an investigation into suspected tax evasion threatens the good name that Swiss banking has had in the eyes of money launderers and tax evaders for centuries.
Switzerland has agreed to hand over details of about 4,450 UBS AG bank accounts to U.S. authorities to settle a tax dispute that challenged Swiss banking secrecy and now threatens to spill over to other banks.
With Switzerland’s famed banking secrecy under fire, the Swiss have also agreed to process requests by the United States seeking information from its banks besides UBS about account holders who may have tried to evade U.S. taxes.
“This announcement today should send a signal—no matter what institution you’re with, the IRS is willing to pursue both the institution and the individual,” Internal Revenue Service Commissioner Doug Shulman told reporters on Wednesday.
In the wake of the UBS deal, other Swiss banks fret that the U.S. taxman’s spotlight may now fall on them.

It is a long-held belief that “coaching, is coaching, is coaching”…and as more women and people of color gain access to coaching support, it is becoming clear that social group identity can factor into the coaching relationship. The topic of coaching with identity in mind is one that has moved to the forefront in discussions about coach competency and coach training.
As Coaches, when and how do we intervene in a coaching conversation that has taken an unexpected turn to issues of social group identity? How does my power as a Coach (the often unacknowledged, but perceived expert in the coaching relationship) play out in a coaching relationship with someone whose worldview is different from my own? When does my lack of knowledge of systemic and cultural awareness trigger a fear of saying the “wrong thing” thereby keeping me from meeting the client where they are in the coaching conversation?
Listeners will learn to: 1. Own their power in the coach-client dynamic; 2. Understand the impact of “in and out-group” dynamics as a key to understanding their clients; and 3. Explore the benefit of applying the Fifth Domain Coaching Model to their coaching framework.

Hernando County’s savings of more than $1 million each year in its first two years indicates a need for and use of this program among consumers - Marty Dettelbach, Financial Marketing Concepts, Inc.
Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla. (PRWEB) January 14, 2013
The providers of the Coast2Coast Rx announced today that its discount prescription card has saved residents of Hernando County $2,616,000 on prescriptions since the launch of the program in January 2011. This total includes savings of more than $1.6 million in 2012.
The program’s three-pronged approach to benefits earned the endorsement of the Hernando County Board of County Commissioners. For almost two years now, residents have had the opportunity to better manage their health through the Coast2Coast Rx card, a free resource that provides an average savings of 60 percent on thousands of prescription drugs, offers additional discounts on other health care services, and generates $1.25 for Hernando County’s public programs each time it is used to fill a prescription. This unique feature provides a simple way for consumers to reinvest in their community, at no cost to the county or taxpayers.
All consumers are eligible to use the card: the uninsured, the underinsured, and those with high deductibles or excluded prescriptions under their current plan, and even Medicare Part D patients experiencing the “donut hole” in their coverage. It offers savings of up to 75 percent on more than 60,000 brand name and generic prescriptions drugs at 59,000+ chain and independent pharmacies nationwide. Discounts on diabetes supplies, services such a lab and imaging, and vision, dental and hearing care and even pet prescriptions and veterinary care are available through a network of selected providers.
“Hernando County’s savings of more than $1 million each year in its first two years indicates a need for and use of this program among consumers, and we are pleased to work with the Hernando County Board of County Commissioners to provide a program that helps consumers save significantly on the prescriptions that can lead to improved health outcomes,” said Chief Marketing Officer Marty Dettelbach of Financial Marketing Concepts, Inc., the company that provides the discount prescription card.
