What are the differences and advantages/disadvantages of writing a characters point of view in the first person compared to writing them in the third person?
You can't have an omniscient third-person "unreliable narrator."
It is sometimes desirable to use the device of an "unreliable narrator." Shirley Jackson's We Have Always Lived in the Castle would have been a very different story without Merricat as a narrator; her eccentric worldview and selective release of information provide for a more entertaining story than a straightforward narrative of events would have. Chief Bromden, the narrator of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, is likewise mentally ill and this enhances the storytelling possibilities of the novel (although the film employed a more straightforward narrative technique).
Mark Twain's two best novels, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn , use different approaches. Tom Sawyer uses third-person narrative; his actions are a bit more interesting than his thought processes, and the story occasionally requires scenes that Tom Sawyer isn't in. Huckleberry Finn , by comparison, is told entirely from Huck's point of view and his skewed (but completely honest) viewpoint is what makes the story compelling.
Some characters are simply more interesting for their actions than their thought processes (I doubt the inner workings of Beowulf's mind would be all that revealing), and for these, a third-person narration is recommended. For other characters, it's the other way around. The sequence of events in Catcher in the Rye is far less remarkable than Holden Caulfield's description of them, and for these kinds of stories, a first-person narrative approach is preferred.

Royal Bank of Scotland is set to announce the third tier of job cuts in relation to its takeover of the Dutch bank ABN Amro in the next two weeks. The third phase will affect rank and file bankers after most management positions were settled in previous announcements.
One of the areas of the combined bank that is set to come under pressure is the leveraged debt division. The market for leveraged loans, high-yield bonds and highly geared property transactions has all but ground to a halt since the onset of the credit crisis last year, forcing banks to collectively write down billions of pounds worth of deals. Both banks had active departments in the market before it dived last summer, leaving them with exposure to transactions it could not sell. As a result, management at RBS and ABN Amro, and other banks, have been more selective in the deals they are willing to underwrite.
It is understood that the combined bank plans to cut leveraged finance jobs and will eventually have fewer people than either bank employed separately. Spokespeople for both banks declined to say whether leveraged debt jobs would be cut.
Speculation at both houses has been rife for months that a number of bankers, mostly from ABN Amro, will lose their jobs. A spokesperson at ABN Amro declined to comment on the specific departments, adding that, "there has been no communication to staff about job loses but it would be common sense to expect departures as the integration continues."
In previous internal announcements covering more senior bankers in several divisions, RBS officials have taken the lion's share of the jobs.
Any leveraged debt redundancies would add to the cuts made by other banks in the market. According to sources, Citigroup last Thursday became the latest bank to cut back on its leveraged debt bankers in London. The US bank is understood to have removed 14 members of its 27-strong leveraged loans team, although only seven are expected to leave the bank, with the others redeployed to other jobs. All the redundancies are thought to affect junior employees. A spokesman for Citi-group declined to comment.
The fallout from the crisis in the US sub-prime mortgage market has already cost $188bn (£92bn) in asset writedowns. And several of the biggest global institutions are slashing headcount to try to trim their costs. Last month, Citigroup announced reductions of 20,000. Lehman Brothers cut 3,750 positions in the last half of last year. And UBS is most of the way through a programme to lose 1,500 roles across the world.
Recruitment consultants specialising in the industry report a marked increase in the number of leveraged debt bankers seeking advice, including those that still have jobs but are worried about losing them.
"We are seeing lots of people at the moment in these areas," said Sheldon Paul, managing director of employment group Cameron Kennedy. "Many of them do not realise the gravity of the situation and some are going to end up leaving the City."
Recruitment specialists say the US investment banks are shedding most jobs: JP Morgan, Citigroup and Morgan Stanley were particularly highlighted, as was the Canadian bank CIBC, which closed its entire leveraged finance operation in December last year.
The leveraged debt markets have toiled more than most since the start of the credit crunch. The market has stalled largely because investors have shied away from the more aggressively structured deals. As a result, the banks have been left with exposure to vast amounts of debt, more than £9bn in the case of the institutions, including RBS, on the deal backing the buyout of pharmaceutical Alliance Boots which owns Boots' retail outlets.Reuse content

How successful a nation would be is a function of the leader and the leader’s cronies.
Gen 41: 33 – 40″ Now, therefore, let Pharaoh look out a man discreet and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt. Let Pharaoh do this, and let him appoint officers over the land, and take up the fifth part of the land of Egypt in the seven plenteous years. And let them gather all the food of those good years that come, and lay up corn under the hand of Pharaoh, and let them keep food in the cities. And that food shall be for store to the land against the seven years of famine, which shall be in the land of Egypt; that the land perishes not through the famine. And the thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants. And Pharaoh said unto his servants, Can we find such a one as this is, a man in whom the Spirit of God is? And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, forasmuch as God hath shewed thee all this, there is none so discreet and wise as thou art: Thou shalt be over my house, and according to unto thy word shall all my people be ruled: only in the throne will I be greater than thou. ”
Every country or organization has a leader that has been given the mandate by the people to direct, control and manage the affairs of the country or the organization. It is the responsibility of such leader to surround himself with cronies that are capable to assist in moving such nation forward. These cronies must be alert mentally and physically in order to deliver maximally. The success of every leader depends on the kind of people he surrounds himself with.
Leaders begin to fail when they start surrounding themselves with people that lack strategies and the intellectual capacity to deliver maximally.
From the verse of the scripture I quoted, Pharaoh had a dream and he became concerned immediately after the dream. He started consulting people he thought would be able to demystify the dream and bring the solution. This shows a man that sincerely needs an answer to his problem. A good leader believes that in the multitude of counsel there is always a safety since they are good listeners who have an open mind to receive the right counsel from people. The quality of perspectives or suggestions they will get depends on the quality of people around them.
One of Africa’s problems is that most leaders are ignorant and their ignorance led them to surround themselves with shallow thinkers, noise makers, and intellectually bankrupt cronies. Having this kind of people is the reason why majority make poor decisions whenever they need help.
Ideally, a leader that knows the enormous task of leadership and has the interest of his nation at heart will be strategic in choosing his cronies. However, what is obtainable in this part of the world are leaders that are just power hungry and greedy.
Success is not far fetched when a leader surrounds himself with cronies who understand time and season and can also provide timely solutions to any problem the nation is facing. These are the kind of people that should be seen around the corridor of power for any serious leader.

Helen Gurley Brown, Cosmopolitan magazine's legendary editor for more than three decades, died Monday morning at New York-Presbyterian/Columbia University Medical Center at the age of 90, according to a release by Hearst Corporation, which owns the women's magazine she helped revolutionize.
Gurley Brown enjoyed a status few achieve in the publishing world, after taking the helm of Cosmo and shattering taboos that kept women's emotional and sexual lives under wraps.
"It would be hard to overstate the importance to Hearst of her success with Cosmopolitan, or the value of the friendship many of us enjoyed with her," said Hearst CEO Frank Bennack. "Helen was one of the world's most recognized magazine editors and book authors, and a true pioneer for women in journalism -- and beyond."
Gurley Brown first burst into notoriety with her best-selling 1962 book, "Sex and the Single Girl." She then served as editor-in-chief of Comso's 64 international editions until 1997, changing the face of the magazine and publications aimed at women. It was under Gurley Brown's leadership that being single, female and open about sex and relationships no longer constituted being a trollop, in print and eventually in society.
"Her formula for honest and straightforward advice about relationships, career and beauty revolutionized the magazine industry," Bennack, Jr. said. "She lived every day of her life to the fullest and will always be remembered as the quintessential Cosmo girl. She will be greatly missed."
Gurley Brown was born in Green Forest, Ark., on Feb. 18, 1922. She married David Brown, who passed away two years ago, in 1959. Her book, "Sex and the Single Girl," encouraged girls to enjoy life sans marriage, pursue a career and take pleasure in sex. The book caused a firestorm, and sold madly, remaining on bestseller lists for over a year. She became a columnist -- a Carrie Bradshaw before the "Sex And The City" character was even born. The raging bestseller put her on the map, and in 1965 she was brought in to revive the Hearst's flagging Cosmopolitan. Her contributions to the publishing world earned her the American Society Of Magazine Editors' Hall of Fame Award.

What about fruits and vegetables? All fruits are rich in carbs, but you can have certain fruits (usually berries) in small portions. Vegetables (also rich in carbs) are restricted to leafy greens (such as kale, Swiss chard, spinach), cauliflower, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, asparagus, bell peppers, onions, garlic, mushrooms, cucumber, celery, and summer squashes. A cup of chopped broccoli has about six carbs.
Whether or not you need specialty bars and other packaged goods formulated with probiotics is another matter. “Science has not shown that probiotics improve general health,” says Dr. Shira Doron, infectious diseases physician and associate hospital epidemiologist at Tufts Medical Center. “Certain diseases and conditions have been studied, with varying results, some of which suggest that probiotics can mitigate symptoms. If you’re taking a probiotic for a specific condition, it is critically important that you use the same strain, formulation and dose that were shown to be effective in clinical trials; otherwise you cannot assume you will experience the same positive effect,” she explains.
Of course, there are so many more reasons to exercise, and physical activity is amazing for your overall health and wellness. It’s just that if you want to lose weight, it may not be the best or only answer. “Honestly, I think people just don’t know where to start,” says Mangieri. “It’s easy to say you’re going to go to the gym for an hour. It’s much harder to think about what you’re eating all day, every day.” She recommends setting goals that are just as specific and achievable for healthy eating, which could be as simple as drinking a big glass of water right when you wake up, getting protein at breakfast, filling half of your plate with colorful vegetables, or going for a walk in the evening, instead of eating ice cream on the couch.
Normal dietary fat contains mostly long-chain triglycerides (LCTs). Medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) are more ketogenic than LCTs because they generate more ketones per unit of energy when metabolised. Their use allows for a diet with a lower proportion of fat and a greater proportion of protein and carbohydrate, leading to more food choices and larger portion sizes. The original MCT diet developed by Peter Huttenlocher in the 1970s derived 60% of its calories from MCT oil. Consuming that quantity of MCT oil caused abdominal cramps, diarrhea, and vomiting in some children. A figure of 45% is regarded as a balance between achieving good ketosis and minimising gastrointestinal complaints. The classical and modified MCT ketogenic diets are equally effective and differences in tolerability are not statistically significant. The MCT diet is less popular in the United States; MCT oil is more expensive than other dietary fats and is not covered by insurance companies.
There are many ways you can positively influence your health. Lifestyle choices, such as diet, exercise, and smoking or drinking, are influenced by habit, culture, and preferences and are different for each individual. Every day the foods you choose to eat and the amount of physical activity you get can impact your overall health as well as your prostate cancer risk, recovery, and survival.
Vitamins fall into two classes: fat-soluble and water-soluble. Their solubility will determine how the vitamin is absorbed and transported by the bloodstream, whether or not it can be stored in the body, and how easily it can be lost from the body. Requirements for each of the vitamins are based on age, gender, pregnancy, and lactation. You can find them at http://www.iom.edu/Object.File/Master/7/296/
We're so used to super-sizing when we eat out that it's easy to carry that mind-set home. To right-size your diet, use a kitchen scale and measuring cups to measure your meals for a week or two. Use smaller plates and glasses to downsize your portions. Split restaurant servings in half -- making two meals out of one big one. Portion out snack servings instead of eating them directly from the container.

Apple Upstages Amazon in Choosing New Technology Hub LocationsCorrectness Tone suggestions Full-sentence rewrites
Apple and Amazon are both giants when it comes to technology and consumer products industries that is why they are in need for more room for expansion and continually in search for an excellent place to establish a major foothold in many US cities that have already been identified as second-tier technology hubs.
Now, Apple upstages Amazon by finding the best location for them to build a $1 Billion worth of campus in Austin, Texas. Apple breaks the news recently after the 11-month long process that started when Apple CEO Tim Cook announced their plans to build a new tech hub outside California.
The new project will open its doors to 5,000 job opportunities including engineers and call center agents. The city has already started to become a destination for technology company startups and some major companies. And with the addition of Apple, we can already imagine that it will bring more prestige into the city as well as revenues.
Aside from Austin’s new tech hub, the company also said that they would also open offices in San Diego, Seattle, and Culver City. For each office, they will hire about 1,000 employees over the next three years. Furthermore, Apple has promised to open hundreds of jobs in their offices in New York, Boston, Pittsburgh, Colorado, and Oregon.
Apparently, it is Apple’s way of ensuring that their employees will get a good place to stay while they pursue their careers. It is also a win-win solution for the company as well as for the workers. Apple doesn’t have to pay extremely high salaries to their employees since they are likely to land an affordable home than in many parts of San Francisco (if they are employed in Silicon Valley).
Cook said, "Talent, creativity and tomorrow's breakthrough ideas aren't limited by region or ZIP code." Major cities in the US have offered financial incentives to get Apple to build their new campus in the area, but Cook wants to avoid high-profile competition like what happened with Amazon when they decided to build new offices in Virginia and New York.
The locations where Apple and Amazon decided to expand were based on the latest analysis that was released by CBRE Research. First on the list is Silicon Valley, followed by Seattle, third is Washington DC, fourth Toronto, fifth New York, and Austin in sixth-place.
The new Apple campus in Austin is expected to open jobs mostly in the fields of technology and research. This is the reason why most cities are very eager to bring in more high-profile technology companies because their employees often make six-figure salaries. These new employees will soon fill the restaurants, malls, theaters, and will also buy properties as well as pay taxes which could be a great help to the city’s economy.

Introduction- In today’s business environment, it is essential for organization to clearly define the roles and rights of management and labor unions in order to develop the relationship between labor and management. This paper discusses the three pieces of legislation that are important for defining the rights of management and unions.
The three pieces of legislation those are important for management-labor relationships are as follow:
The Wagner Act: The Wagner Act is also called as the National Labor Relations Act of 1935. The main purpose of this act was to give rights to the employees to form and join unions, to make collective bargaining, make strike against their employers and to engage in practices that support their mutual interests. This act is basically bills of rights for union that supported employees to develop effective relationship with the management and organization. This act also provided directions to the employers to make effective bargaining on the issues such as wages, hours and terms and condition of employment. With the introduction of Wagner Act, the government of US also established National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) (Botson, 2005). The board has five members appointed by the president of USA.
The main responsibility of this board was to determine appropriate bargaining units, performing elections to determine union representation and avoiding and correcting employer actions that could lead to unfair labor practices. Through this, labor unions identified their roles and responsibilities and rights in the organizations (Dewhirst & Rausch, 2009). This act also helped labor unions to achieve legal identification as legitimate interests groups in American Society.
The Taft-Hartley Act: The Taft-Hartley Act is used by the unions as an improved version of Wagner Act through addressing the employers’ concerns about the unfair union labor practices. The Taft-Hartley Act includes some points that promote unfair labor practices by unions such as engaging in illegal strikes, refusing for collectively bargaining, charge excessive or discriminatory fees under union shop contracts and obtain compensations for the work that not to be performed. This helps the employees and management to identify their rights and responsibilities within the organization effectively (Bohlander & Snell, 2009). In this act, the Taft-Hartley declared close shop illegal because this type of union security arrangement dominated the labor contracts.
In the closed shop arrangement, labor union controlled the source of labor. Through this arrangement, an individual can join the union, be trained by the union and send individual for the work to the employer by the unions. This act is also helpful for the employers and unions to identify the rights of management and labor at the time of strikes against employer. This act also provides the rights to the workers to decertify their union representatives. With the introduction of Taft-Hartley Act, the US government also established an independent agency called Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service (FMCS) (McConnell, 2011). This agency is separated from the department of labor that helped the companies by sending trained representatives to assists in dispute negotiations between management and labor.
The main role of this act is also related to provide directions to the unions and employers to reach at an agreement that saves the interests of both the parties effectively. This act also provided the effective platform for the parties to bargain, deal and demonstrate their interests to reach a mutually acceptable agreement (Genovese, 2010).
Landrum-Griffin Act: The Landrum-Griffin Act of 1959 is also an important piece of legislation that helps in defining the rights of unions and management effectively. This act was also a correcting act of Taft-Hartley and Wagner Act. The main role of this act is to monitor the internal union activities through making them official. The internal union activities include union funds, elections and other business and representational matters. These activities helped the workers and management to identify their rights in managing internal union activities effectively. The main aim of this act is to make efforts to prevent corrupt practices and to keep organized crime by gaining control of the labor movement (Sims, 2002).
The policies in this act also allowed all members of a union to vote without any obligation of race, sex and national origin etc. This helps the workers and union members to receive certain rights that supported in maintaining effective relationship with the management within the organizations in effective manner. This act is also beneficial in defining the rights of management and labor union because this act establishes a Bill of Rights for union members, reporting requirements for labor organizations, union officers and employees, employers, labor relations consultants, standards for elections of union officers and safeguard for protecting the labor union funds and assets (Carper, Mckinsey & West, 2008). It helps the employer as well as labors to develop their understanding about the rights in the organizations.
From the above discussion, it can be concluded that the legal framework helps the organizations to establish effective and supportive labor-management relationship. In this, three legislations such as Wagner Act, Taft- Hartley Act and Landrum-Griffin Act help organizations to identify and develop the rights of labor and management.

Ironically, a major pusher of this form factor is Apple's own primary
provider LG Electronics Inc. (
), which has handed Android phonemakers an even more powerful display -- a monstrous 5-inch Retina unit.
While many people mistakenly think Apple "invented" the Retina display, it really just bought it -- bought it from LG.
Now Android smartphone makers -- including LG itself -- are preparing to launch 5-inch smartphones powered by LG's new 1080p HD 5-inch Retina display, which packs an impressive 440 ppi. While not quite as high a pixel density as rival Toshiba Corp.'s (
498 ppi 6-inch display, LG's display is a bit further ahead given that it's reportedly ready for immediate product integration.
Devices with the monstrous new display could be available by the holiday season.

On the technical side, the new unit features a somewhat new technology called Advanced High Performance In-Plane Switching (AH-IPS), an evolution of IPS which offers faster response times (your image updates faster), better brightness efficiency (the display uses less power), and better viewing angles (you can tilt your device and still read it).
LG is currently previewing the massive new smartphone-cum-mini-tablet display at SID 2012 Display Week in Boston. Sang-Deok Yeo, CTO, brags, "With the world's highest resolution smartphone display, LG Display continues to remain a step ahead in developing the most innovative in display technology products."
RGB displays like this new model enjoy a slight advantage over Samsung Electronics Comp., Ltd.'s (
Pentile display format
, in that they show less undesirable pixel visibility (aka "pixellation") at the same ppi (pixels per inch) measurement.
The 5-inch form factor is becoming increasingly popular among Android devices, after the modestly successful
Galaxy Note (5.3-inch) hit the market
, treading the line between a smartphone and a tablet. LG has a 5-incher of its own --
the Optimus Vu

The Optimus Vu features a much different 4:3 aspect ratio, though, which makes it appear very squat. It reportedly was released in South Korea earlier
, and will slowly roll out worldwide in coming months.

rofl. The reason you can't get laptops with 1080p+ displays is cost e.g. it has nothing to do with eyesight. Why are mfrs still shipping notebooks with 768p? Because it's fucking cheap, that's why.
Save that DIAF for yourself.

Jordan and Another v. Secretary of State for the Home Department
JORDAN AND ANOTHER v THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE HOME DEPARTMENT TH/2501/71
Immigration Appeal Tribunal
 Imm AR 201
Hearing Date: 17 February 1972
17 February 1972
Deportation -- Consideration of the merits -- Public interest balanced against compassionate circumstances -- Indian citizens of United Kingdom descent in breach of conditions of admission because of wish to settle -- Discretionary power exercised in manner "consistent and fair between one person and another" -- Immigration Appeals Act 1969, s 16 -- Cmnd 4295, paras 36, 41.
Held: The appellant citizens of India, brothers born in 1947 and 1949, were admitted to the United Kingdom in November 1967 as students for 12 months. In April 1968 they applied for a revocation of their conditions of admission on the ground that their parents in India were of English and Scottish descent with a long tradition of service in British India and that they had other relatives in this country. Their application was refused in July 1968. In December 1968 an application was made on their behalf for an extension of stay as students; this was refused on its merits, but they were granted an extension until 30 June 1969 to enable them to make arrangements to leave the country. Further unsuccessful representations followed, rlesulting in a further permitted extension of stay till 29 October 1970, again to enable them to make arrangements to leave. They did not exercise their right of appeal on that occasion nor did they leave the country; and after yet further unsuccessful representations had been made the Secretary of State in August 1971 decided to make deportation orders against them under s 16 of the Immigration Appeals Act 1969 for their failure to comply with their conditions of admission. They appealed under s 4(1)(a) of the Immigration Appeals Act 1969. The adjudicator dismissed their appeals because on the facts before him concerning, inter alia, the appellants' family background, upbringing and prospects in India (set out in passage quoted from adjudicator's determination, on pp 203-4, post) he did not consider that they merited exceptional treatment on compassionate grounds. On their further appeal to the Tribunal it was contended that the discretion conferred by paras 36 and 41 of Cmnd 4295 n1 should have been exercised differently in all the relevant circumstances, and/or because the public interest in making deportation orders was outweighed here by the compassionate circumstances. n1 Paragraphs 36 and 41 of Cmnd 4295 are set out on page 206, post. Held: The appeals were governed by the provisions of paras 36 and 41 of Cmnd 4295 n1 and would be dismissed, because -- n1 Paragraphs 36 and 41 of Cmnd 4295 are set out on page 206, post. (i) The appellants had since the expiration of their permitted stay in June 1969 failed to bring themselves within the immigration rules: they had made no new application to stay on any ground, and their subsequent extension of stay until October 1970 was granted for the purpose only of regularising the position they had themselves brought about; (ii) In weighing "the public interest" against "any compassionate circumstances" the aim (as stated in para 36 of Cmnd 4295) was an exercise of the power of deportation that was "consistent and fair as between one person and another". Were the appellants to be permitted to remain in this country such action would hardly be "consistent and fair" as between them and the many persons overseas subject to United Kingdom immigration control whose circumstances and background were similar to theirs.
Counsel: Michael Beloff for the appellants. C. F. Woodiss for the respondent. PANEL: Sir Derek Hilton (President), Sir George Whitteridge, T. Neil Esq.
Judgment One: THE TRIBUNAL: The appeal was against the determination of an adjudicator (Mr W. Phillips) dismissing the appeal of the appellants against the decision of the respondent to make orders under s 16 of Immigration Appeals Act 1969 requiring them to leave the United Kingdom and prohibiting them from returning while the orders remained in force and against the proposal of the respondent to give directions for their removal to India. The appellants, Clifford O'Neil Jordan and Errol Anthony Jordan, who are brothers and who were born on 3 April 1947 and 11 November 1949 respectively, are citizens of India. They were admitted to the United Kingdom on 4 November 1967 as students, being in possession of entry certificates issued to them for that purpose in Calcutta, on condition that they did not remain longer than twelve months. In April 1968 the appellants applied for the revocation of their conditions of admission as they wished to settle in this country because their parents in India were descended from English and Scottish families with a long tradition of service in British India and they had a number of relatives living in the United Kingdom. This application was refused in July 1968 as the appellants were not eligible to have their conditions of admission revoked. Unsuccessful representations were made against this decision by Miss A. J. West, who had made hereself responsible for accommodating and maintaining the appellants while they were in this country. On 19 December 1968 Miss West applied for an extension of the appellants' stay as students. After enquiries were made by the Home Office that application was refused on the grounds that the appellants were not then qualified to remain here as students and they were granted extensions of stay until 30 June 1969 to enable them to make arrangements to leave the country. Representations were made by Miss West against this decision, full details of which are contained in the Home Office statement. During this period the appellants remained in the United Kingdom and on 29 September 1970 Miss West was told that the appellants were not exempt from United Kingdom immigration control nor were they eligible to register as citizens of the United Kingdom and Colonies. The appellants were granted further extensions of their permitted stay to 29 October 1970 to enable them to make arrangements to leave the country. They were informed of their right of appeal but they did not exercise this right. Miss West then made further unsuccessful representations through her Member of Parliament. As the appellants had remained in this country the respondent decided on 13 August 1971, in accordance with s 16 of the Immigration Appeals Act 1969 and para 41 of Cmnd 4295, to make deportation orders against them. The appellants appealed against this decision. At the hearing of the appeal before the adjudicator evidence was given by the appellants and by Miss West. In a very full determination dismissing the appeal the adjudicator set out all the evidence before him and concluded as follows: -- "This appeal is against the decision of the Secretary of State to make deportation orders, under s 16 of the Immigration Appeals Act 1969, against the appellants for failure to comply with their conditions of admission. The Rules provide that deportation will normally be the proper course where a Commonwealth citizen has persistently failed to comply with a condition of his admission. This is clearly the position here, and Miss West's attitude to the appellants' predicament is that they are now adults and have a moral right to live in this country. The Rules also provide that full account will be taken of all relevant circumstances before any decision to make a deportation order is taken, and that the public interest will be balanced against any compassionate circumstances of the case. It is relevant that the appellants are of British descent, from families with a long record of service in British India, that their upbringing reflects their British descent, and that English is their mother tongue. I must take into account the fact that they have numbers of close relatives in the United Kingdom, that they have virtually been adopted by Miss West, and that they have lived here since the end of 1967. They have adapted themselves successfully, as might be expected, to live in England and they are both in useful employment; Clifford working as a pupil nurse and Errol as a trainee in metalcraft. The Anglo-Indian community in India is small and declining in numbers since may of its members are now emigrating to Australia. The appellants are said to have poor employment prospects in India; before they came to this country in 1967 Clifford was working as a telephone operator earning @ 12 a month, and Errol was following an engineering course at a technical school. Against this, it has to be said that the appellants' parents have their permanent home in India where the appellants were born and where they lived until 4 years ago when they were 20 and 17 years old respectively. They are unmarried and have no dependants here. Apart from their remote descent, all the appellants' links with the United Kingdom are recent and at no time have they been led by the Home Office to expect that they would be permitted to make their permanent home in this country. Neither, I think, has their absence from India been so long, nor their employment here so dissimilar, as to make it difficult for them to resume the life they were accustomed to live there. Miss West told me that the reason she has made this sustained effort is that she believes that there are the very strongest grounds for the exercise of discretion in the appellants' favour. She recalled that Lord Windlesham had, in his letter of the 2 April 1971 to Mr Hugh Dykes, quoted her own reference to this 'very unusual case, probably unique'. Miss West has been personally involved in this case from the outset and she has represented the appellants' case, both in correspondence with the Home Office and before me, with great tenacity. I do not doubt that the appellants find life in this country more congenial, and their employment more remunerative, than in India but these are not sufficient reasons for allowing them to stay here. I am also sure that ties of affection and duty have developed between Miss West and the appellants, but the appellants' parents are still in India, they are of full age, and I do not think that the emotional disturbance caused by their having to leave England would be such as to merit exceptional treatment on compassionate grounds. I have decided that the appeals of both appellants must be dismissed." The adjudicator granted leave to appeal to the Tribunal. The grounds of appeal of the appellants are as follows: -- "(i) The adjudicator's finding that the appellants had persistently failed to comply with their conditions of admission was against the weight of the evidence in view of the fact that since in or about April 1968 their position had been under constant review by the Home Office. (ii) The adjudicator misdirected himself by failing to consider the fact of eligibility of the appellants' parents to register as British nationals pursuant to the British Nationality Acts 1948 and 1958 as a relevant circumstance to be taken into account pursuant to Cmnd 4295 para 41. (iii) The adjudicator failed to give sufficient weight to his finding that the Anglo-Indian community in India is small and declining in numbers as a compassionate circumstance in the appellants' case within the meaning of Cmnd 4295 paragraph 36. (iv) That on the evidence before him and/or his findings of fact thereon the adjudicator should have found that the decision of the Secretary of State to make deportation orders in respect of the appellants (which involved the exercise of a discretion pursuant to Cmnd 4295 paragraphs 36 and 41) should have been exercised differently in all the relevant circumstances of the case and/or because the public interest in making deportation orders was outweighed by the compassionate circumstances of their cases." At the hearing of the appeal before us we heard argument and submissions on behalf of both parties. In addressing us Mr Beloff said that the basis of the appeal was that the discretion conferred by paragraphs 36 and 41 of Cmnd 4295 n2 should have been exercised differently in this case. The facts were basically accepted. On the grounds of appeal Mr Beloff made the following submissions: -- (a) On ground (i): The first sentence of para 41 of Cmnd 4295, in referring to a persistent failure to comply with conditions of admission, raised a presumption which an applicant had to rebut. However, the last sentence of the paragraph, which requird full account to be taken of all relevant circumstances before any decision were come to to make a deportation order, showed that the adjudicator was wrong in saying that this was a clear case of persistent failure because at all relevant times Miss West was making representations on the appellants' behalf. There had therefore been no deliberate flouting of the rules during the continued stay of the appellants as the case had been, in a way, sub judice. This had been accepted by the Home Office by the grant of a further extension of stay to 29 October 1970. n2 Paragraphs 36 and 41 of Cmnd 4295 are set out on page 206, post. (b) On grounds (iii) & (iv): Having regard to the adjudicator's findings of fact the respondent should have come to a different decision. The adjudicator found many factors in favour of the appellants, including the long service of their family in India, their upbringing in an English way of life, the length of time they had been in the United Kingdom where they had been virtually adopted by Miss West as confirmed by the letter from their parents (put in as additional evidence) and the difficulties they would experience in returning to India as members of the Anglo-Indian community there. In considering the factors against the appellants the adjudicator should not have found that there was a permanent home for the appellants in India. (c) On ground (ii): The Tribunal should consider as a factor the position of the parents of the appellants. They had a close connection with the United Kingdom and in his view had they chosen to do so at the appropriate time they could have registered as citizens of the United Kingdom and Colonies. The fact that they had not done so was no fault of the appellants. (We accepted as additional evidence a letter from the British High Commission to the parents which in Mr Beloff's submission showed that the latter came close to registration although they did not do so). In reply Mr Woodiss submitted: -- (a) The case had had the fullest consideration all through and now there was an appeal against the adjudicator's very full determination. (b) There must be a distinction between enquiries about and representations against a decision and a new application. (c) The appellants were requested to leave the country in 1969. The extension of stay granted until October 1970 was merely to regularise their position and for no other purpose. (d) A time must come when a decision had to be acted upon. The appellants had not qualified to remain under the immigration regulations since some time in 1968. Since then no new application had been made by them and they were still here in October 1970. (e) So far as the position of the appellants' parents was concerned one had to deal with the facts as they were. (f) He was not competent to comment on the Anglo-Indian community but he would point out that there was no evidence before the Tribunal of any likely discrimination against the appellants if they returned to India. Their parents appeared to be leading a fairly normal life there. If the appellants were to return to India it appeared that their position would be no better or no worse than that of anyone of comparable education. (g) The adjudicator had made a generous evaluation of all the circumstances of this case in weighing compassionate circumstances against the public interest. The appellants, who are subject to United Kingdom immigration control, have since June 1969, when their permitted stay expired, failed to bring themselves within the immigration regulations. Since then they have remained in this country, during which time persistent representations have been made on their behalf to enable them to remain in this country. We accept that their stay was later extended until October 1970 for the purpose only of regularising the position which the appellants themselves had brought about. Since June 1969 no new application to be permitted to stay in this country on any ground has been made by the appellants. It was not until August 1971 that the respondent decided, as the appellants had failed to leave this country voluntarily, to make deportation orders against them. In our opinion the appellants have received very generous treatment during the period they have remained in the United Kingdom. This case is governed by the provisions of paras 36 and 41 of Cmnd 4295 which read as follows: -- "36. In considering whether deportation is the right course on the merits, the public interest will be balanced against any compassionate circumstances of the case. While each case will be considered in the light of the particular circumstances, the aim is an exercise of the power of deportation that is consistent and fair as between one person and another, although one case will rarely be identical with another in all material respects. 41. Whether or not a Commonwealth citizen has been convicted of breach of conditions of admission, deportation will normally be the proper course where he has persistently failed to comply with such a condition; so also where a Commonwealth citizen has been recommended for deportation on conviction of an offence against section 4(1)(a) (entering the United Kingdom while a refusal of admission is in force) or 4A (entering the United Kingdom without examination by an immigration officer) of the 1962 Act. But full account is to be taken of all the relevant circumstances before any decision to make a deportation order is taken." In weighing "the public interest" against any compassionate circumstances the aim, under the regulations, is "an exercise of the power of deportation that is consistent and fair as between one person and another". Were the appellants to be permitted to remain in this country for the reasons which have been put forward by them and on their behalf and which are fully stated in the evidence and the adjudicator's determination it could hardly be said that such action would be "consistent and fair" as between them and the many persons overseas subject to United Kingdom immigration control whose circumstances and background are similar to those of the appellants. We have considered most carefully all the factors put forward on behalf of the appellants both to us and to the adjudicator. In our opinion the adjudicator came to a correct decision and we agree with his full and fair determination.

Jackie Hartlaub is a chef who enjoys posting her creations on social media and has recently gone viral for her bacon idea which has garnered over 15 million views. She posted a video showing how to make twisted bacon, the delicious savory treat that can be used for a weekend breakfast or used as a party snack.
Jackie began her video and said: “Okay, this is one of the best hacks I’ve learned from TikTok.”
She revealed her creation, which looked like golden sizzling bacon with an unusual twist. She said: “I’ve seen videos making this twisted bacon, and it looks so good, it is the perfect combination of crispy and chewy.”
Jackie first began by putting parchment paper on an oven tray and said it was important to cut the sheets of parchment paper so that it lines up with your tray before placing it in the oven.
She then unveiled her uncooked bacon and began taking one bacon, twisting it and then placing it onto the oven tray. She did this several times, with two pounds of bacon until the whole tray was full.

Jackie then placed the tray in the oven at 480 Fahrenheit (250 Celcius) for around 20 minutes. She then filmed herself taking the tray out of the oven and said “Flip (the bacon) over and then put it in again for another 20 minutes.”
The chef then took her creation out of the oven, to reveal bacon sizzling and said it “turned out perfect.”
Bacon twists are simple enough to make and can be served as a breakfast dish or even as a party snack. While making the twisted bacon, make sure it is twisted tightly so it does not unravel, and make make sure to only cook one layer at a time, so the bacon is not stacking on top of each other and does not cook properly.
The bacon treats can also be added to bring out different flavours, and other people online have added lemon pepper, cajun spruce, or even Italian seasoning before placing it in the oven.
They are also the perfect food to use for dipping and can be served with ranch, honey mustard, or BBQ sauce.
In Jackie’s video comment section, people were thinking about how they would cook their own trusted bacon. One user said: “I can see the possibilities, I would add maple syrup, brown sugar, or maybe even tabasco.”
Another user named Sonny said: “I think we need to invite brown sugar to the party! Looks awesome.”
One user said: “You can never have too much bacon. it’s quite literally impossible, I am going to try this” while somebody else said: “I made this and rolled it in chili powder, it was so good.”
Somebody else wrote: “Just tried it and it was amazing! I popped it in the oven at 375 for 10 minutes on each side and then in the air fryer at 400 for five minutes.”
However, one chef has a recommendation for the bacon treat and said: “Do everything the same, but roll the bacon around in asparagus and cook in the exact same way. Thank me later.”


Garick Zikan: Ever since it arrived in 2014, the Porsche Macan, has roared on the road like the Indonesian word for tiger it’s named after. Now, the 2019 Porsche Macan is getting an even bigger dose of the family DNA. What you’re seeing is the version created for the Chinese market, but we anticipate some similarities if the changes come to the U.S. The front fascia is designed to appear wider, showing clear signs of the 911 and 918 Spyder.LED headlights are standard, Porsche’s Dynamic Light System Plus provides even more precise illumination. The rear is wrapped with the 3D LED taillight and 4-point brake lights, fitting in with the rest of the Porsche line-up.
This mid-cycle refresh is much more than cosmetic, and goes to the very heart of this compact SUV. One of the big changes involves moving the fuel injectors.
Antoon Janssen: “We positioned the fuel injector directly in the center of the combustion chamber directly beside the spark plug and this allows an even finer adjustment of dosing of the amount of fuel and better fuel air mixture”
Garick Zikan: A 3.0-liter V6 powers the Macan S. Engineers moved the single turbo inside the V increasing output to 349 horsepower. The Macan Turbo uses the same engine block but engineers beefed up the cylinder liners to accommodate the force of the 433-horses that will charge out of the 2.9-liter V6.Two turbos are in the V — one for each cylinder bank. We haven’t heard official specs on a U.S. model, but we anticipate similar results. While Porsches are naturally known for powerful engines, the power train manager explained to us there were also other goals.
Antoon Janssen: “So yes, we increased the power output of the engine, but I have to mention one of the main items is also the efficiency and the reduction of emissions.”
Garick Zikan: Engineers also refined the chassis, maintaining a clear focus on the experience in the driver’s seat.
Sebastian Staiger: "For especially the air suspension, the air suspension brings that range between comfort and dynamics”
Garick Zikan: We’ve driven the Macan before, so we know it has Porsche’s legendary performance with plenty of power and plenty of grip.They’re bringing even more of that sporty heritage here to the cockpit.
Another nod to the 911 is the optional GT sports steering wheel. The Sport Response Button is integrated into the wheel, and as we’ve seen on other Porsches, it’s the ticket to 20 seconds of insane power.
The dashboard of previous Macans looked like this with a 7-inch touch screen straddled by two air vents. The transformation includes moving the air vents below the now 11-inch HD touch screen. The Panamera influence is clear although it’s a little smaller. Porsche Communication Management becomes more sophisticated, with Voice Pilot and real time traffic updates.A traffic jam assistant including adaptive cruise control is added to the mix.The rows of buttons on the rising center console remain. As a sport oriented luxury utility, the Macan has always offered a dynamic driving experience fitting of the Porsche badge; now it shares the latest looks and technology sweeping through the brand. Stay tuned to MotorWeek as more details surface on the 2019 Porsche Macan.

The relationship you have with food can have a tremendous negative impact on your health and weight loss when that relationship is unhealthy.
We all know that an unhealthy relationship with food can leave you feeling unfulfilled, depressed and dissatisfied. No matter how hard you try to make it work, there is no way to get past the fact that the relationship is taking a toll on your emotional health.
Here are ten signs that you have an unhealthy relationship with food.
Your Emotions Control Your Eating Habits: If you eat to avoid doing something, to entertain yourself, as a reward, or to find comfort, you are allowing your emotions to control your eating habits. This means that you aren’t listening to your body about what its needs are.
Suffer From Food Guilt: There is no reason you should spend time beating yourself up for having a second slice of cake or eating an extra breadstick. If you are spending more time mentally punishing yourself for eating something than you spent enjoying it, you are suffering from food guilt.
You Think About Food All The Time: When you have access to food when you are hungry, there is no reason for thoughts of food to consume your mind and interfere with your life. Constant thoughts about food are a sign that you may be denying yourself nutrients your body needs.
You Prefer To Eat In Private: If you can’t handle eating with people without feeling self-conscious, or obsessing over what your options may be at a restaurant or party, chances are your food relationship isn’t healthy.
You Deny Yourself The Foods You Crave: A healthy relationship with foods means that you know what you want as well as what you need in your diet. It also means that you accommodate both your wants and your needs. Often cravings are our body’s way of telling us we are lacking something in our diets.
You Cut Out Entire Food Groups: Healthy eating is all about balance. Rigid perfectionism in your diet is a precursor for disordered eating and a definite warning sign of an unhealthy relationship with food.
You Eat The Same Foods All The Time: Trying new foods isn’t something that should cause you anxiety unless you have a severe food allergy causing the anxiety. If the idea of trying a new food causes fears and anxiety to surface, you could have bigger problems to deal with.
You Have No Self-Control When It Comes To Food: A couple signs that you have no self-control when it comes to food are when you can’t have certain foods in the house without eating them, or you find yourself eating a full bag of chips without realizing it until afterward. A lack of self-control regarding food is a definite sign you need some help with your relationship relating to food.
You Are Controlled By Food Rules: There are no hard and fast rules that you need to follow in order to lose, maintain, or gain weight. If your mind is more concerned with following unnecessary rules when it comes to food instead of listening to your body, chances are, you need to evaluate your relationship with food.
You Punish Yourself For Breaking Your Food Rules: Choosing to eat a salad for lunch because you know you are going out for pizza for dinner is called balance. Going on a week-long juice cleanse because you ate three slices instead of two is a sign that you need to evaluate your relationship with food.
If you have experienced any of the above signs it could mean that your relationship with food is unhealthy, you might be wondering what to do next. If you find that your negative relationship with food is affecting your quality of life, then it might be time to consider talking to a qualified bariatric hypnotist as well as your doctor to determine if you truly have an unhealthy food relationship and discovering the cause.
Working with a qualified hypnotist can help develop your personal strengths to create a new, healthy relationship with food so you can feel better, lose weight and be in control.

What is currently the most aerodynamic car in the US?
The smaller the forward surface, the easier the air passes. While the upcoming Tesla Model 3 has an enviable estimated cD of 0.21, it falls short of the General Motors EV1, which holds the title of the most aerodynamic car ever sold in America, with a remarkably low cD of 0.195.

What is the difference between Aeromax and Aero Supersports?
The first of these was the Aero 8, a car whose myopic headlamps gave it a slightly startled appearance. And since then, we’ve had the art deco AeroMax coupe and now this—the latest, greatest, and most expensive Morgan yet—the Aero SuperSports. In essence, the SuperSports is a targa-roofed version of the AeroMax.
What makes the Aero so special?

Is the aero8 a racing green car?
15 years after its initial introduction, the new Aero8 was re-launched in similar colour ways at the Geneva motor show 2015. A much admired factory favourite. Any true British Sports car should successfully wear a ‘Racing Green’ and the Aero8 is no exception.

From cobblestone streets to grand boulevards, from intimate bistros to grand palaces, Paris is a city that captivates, inspires, and amazes. Prepare to uncover the timeless charms of this iconic metropolis.
On the way to Paris!
If you’re travelling from London to Paris, the best way to arrive in the heart of the city is by train. The Eurostar links the two capitals in less than two hours and seventeen minutes, offering an alternative that is not only fast but also sustainable. Adopting green mobility while discovering the Channel Tunnel is an experience in itself.
When to visit
Paris is a destination that transcends the boundaries of seasons. Each time of year brings its own unique charm and allure, making Paris a city that can be thoroughly enjoyed regardless of the season.
Each season offers a different charm; it’s up to you to choose which one you wish to experience, though you will appreciate Paris in each of these seasons.
The beauty of Paris by seasons:
Spring (March to June): the city awakens with blooming trees and filling café terraces. It’s the perfect time to wander in gardens like the Tuileries or Luxembourg.
Summer (June to September): despite the crowds, the atmosphere is festive with numerous events, especially the Fête de la Musique and Bastille Day on July 14th.
Autumn (September to December): tree leaves turn golden hues, creating a perfect romantic atmosphere for a stroll along the Seine.
Winter (December to March): the city is adorned with festive lights, and the shop windows of major department stores shimmer brilliantly for the holidays. Indeed, winter in Paris is nothing short of magical; festive lights and Christmas markets create a fairy-tale ambiance throughout the city.
Where to stay
From budget-friendly to luxurious experiences, Paris offers a diversity of hotels that suit every wallet. Here are our two top picks:
Luxury Hotel: Cheval Blanc Paris
Located near the Louvre and with a panoramic view of the Seine, Cheval Blanc embodies Parisian luxury. With its refined interior and top-tier services, you’ll be immersed in a world of exception.
Bohemian Experience: Mob Hôtel Paris:
Nestled in the vibrant Saint-Ouen district, Mob Hôtel offers a unique experience, blending culture, art, and gastronomy. Its laid-back atmosphere and innovative spaces make it perfect for travellers seeking authenticity.
What to eat and drink
Globally renowned for its gastronomy, France, and more particularly Paris, is the ideal city for taste discoveries that will delight your palate. Here’s what we recommend you to try:
French cuisine: savour classics like beef bourguignon, pot-au-feu, or the famous steak tartare in local brasseries.
Cheeses: visit a traditional cheese shop and discover an incredible variety, from brie to camembert.
Café culture: immerse yourself in the Parisian atmosphere on a café terrace while sipping a café crème or hot chocolate. Don’t miss stopping by a bakery to discover classics like croissants, pain au chocolat, tarte tatin or a Paris-Brest.
Things to do
The French capital offers numerous activities for all interests. This is notably one of its strong points – you can always find something to do for entertainment.
Stroll: walk along the banks of the Seine, visit the booksellers, and admire the numerous bridges and monuments.
Expositions and fairs: Paris is not just a city of timeless beauty; it’s also a hub for some of the world’s most prestigious and diverse expositions and fairs. From the glitz and glamour of fashion and design shows to the innovation and excitement of tech and startup fairs, these salons offer a glimpse into the cutting-edge trends and traditional craftsmanship that shape our world.
Shopping: the Galeries Lafayette and Rue Saint-Honoré are must-visits for fashion enthusiasts.
Best spot to visit
When planning a trip to a new country, selecting the “best spots to visit” is crucial for an enriching travel experience.
These spots often represent the essence of the destination, showcasing its unique culture, history, and beauty. They provide travellers with unforgettable moments and deeper insights into the place they are exploring. In Paris, a city brimming with allure and romance, certain locations stand out for their iconic status and the unique experiences they offer. Here are 3 things you cannot miss in the City of Light:
Montmartre: this historic district is a quintessential Parisian experience. At its heart is the Sacré-Cœur basilica, majestically perched on a hill offering a sweeping panoramic view of Paris.
The artistic ambiance is palpable as you wander the cobbled lanes and quaint squares. Once the stomping ground of artists like Picasso and Van Gogh, Montmartre retains a bohemian spirit that is both inspiring and deeply captivating.
The Louvre Museum: no visit to Paris is complete without exploring the world-renowned Louvre . As the world’s largest art museum, it is home to a vast collection of art and historical artifacts, including the enigmatic Mona Lisa.
The museum’s iconic glass pyramid juxtaposes the historic palace that houses it, symbolizing the blend of old and new that defines Paris. And don’t forget this great offer: the Louvre is free for everyone on the first Friday of the month after 6pm (except in July and August) and on 14 July!
The Eiffel Tower: arguably the most recognizable symbol of Paris, the Eiffel Tower is more than just an architectural wonder.
Visiting this landmark offers a chance to experience Parisian engineering and artistry firsthand. Whether you’re admiring it from the Champ de Mars or taking in the cityscape from its observation decks such as the one on the Montparnasse Tower, the Eiffel Tower promises a memorable experience, especially at night when it lights up and sparkles.
Each of these spots, in its own way, tells a story of Paris’ past and present, inviting travellers to immerse themselves in the essence of this iconic city.
Whether your trip to Paris is for culture, gastronomy, fashion, or simply the love of discovery, this city will charm you at every turn. Safe travels!


The Phillies, in the coming months (and likely years) are going to have a hard time filling Citizens Bank Park. However, the solution to that issue could come from a Korean Major League team with the opposite problem.
The Hanwha Eagles, a team in the the Korea Professional Baseball League who are “famed for losing” yet still have an abundant and loyal fanbase, recently installed cheering robots in the stands to stand-in for fans who cannot make the games. It looks like there are only two rows of robot fans, so the Phillies might need to place a bulk order.
The fans watching on their phone or computer who can’t make the game can put their face on one of the robots, and send messages of support for the team. A whole video on them is above, but here are my favorite parts:
I really hope someone asked this out loud, and in a room where no one laughed and everyone immediately started working on it:
The robots take place in the “slow wave,” which is like the wave but slower, so it’s 100% worse:
And one of these things is not like the others:
They’d have to put some filters on those robots if they brought them here. Otherwise, it’d just be bare man-asses with messages of “Papelbon Blows” broadcasting to an empty ballpark.
Overall though, I like the way the Koreans look at baseball.

As access to sufficient health care continues to become a dominant—and divisive—issue in the world today, this resource acts as a primer to the public health care system Canada has had in place for the last 30 years. While explaining the program's cost efficiency and dramatically better health outcomes compared with the United States' private health care system, it also addresses the complexities of the program, as well as the aspects that need improvement—such as wait times and the aging boomer generation. This analysis offers a detailed introduction on how the Canadian system works and assesses reforms currently underway, concluding that expanding Canada's public health care system, rather than privatizing it, is the best way to improve it.

I'm fairly new to cake decorating. I really love the look of the ribbon around the base of the tiers. How do you secure the ribbon to the cake (buttercream AND fondant covered)? Thanks for your help.
If you are putting the ribbon on BC, make sure it is well-crusted for crusting BC or VERY cold/hard for non-crusting so the ribbon doesn't dig in to the surface of the BC. You can use a drop of BC to glue the ribbon in place at the back of the cake, wrap it around and then use frosting again to secure it. OR you can use double-stick tape so long as you keep the tape on the ribbon (stick it to itself) Some folks baste the ribbon in shortening so that the grease from the BC doesn't make the ribbon splotchy. Others iron the shiny side of freezer paper to the back side of the ribbon. Acetate ribbon from the gift wrap section is naturally grease-proof.
For fondant, just wrap and secure w/a dot of frosting--BC or Royal or use the double stick tape on the ribbon itself.
Thanks so much for your help!

On Thursday evening (18 May 1865), a meeting of members of the Working Man’s Club was held in Trinity School-room. His Worship the Mayor presided. The Club had then 230 enrolled members, and most of them were present. The rules prepared by the provisional committee were unanimously adopted. His Worship the Mayor (Adye Douglas, Esq.) was elected President.
Sir Adye Douglas (1815-1906), lawyer and politician was born on 31 May 1815 at Thorpe-next-Norwich, England. He sailed from London in the Louisa Campbell and arrived at Launceston in January 1839. After being admitted to practice in the Supreme Court, in 1842 he founded a legal firm that continues to operate today. Elected as one of the first aldermen in the Launceston Municipal Council he served as mayor in 1865-66 and 1880-82. He was also elected to represent Launceston in the first House of Assembly in 1856 and later served as Premier of Tasmania from 1884 until 1886 where he resigned and became Agent-General in London.
He represented Tasmania at the Sydney convention from which the Federal Council of Australasia was evolved. At its first session in Hobart, Douglas predicted a ‘United States of Australasia, independent of the lieelt island in the Northern Hemisphere’. Called to order, he reminded members of the toasts of forty years ago to the ‘Australian Republic’.

LOS ANGELES -- Pamela Anderson may have a need for speed, but her favorite charity has a need for funds.
That's why the former "Baywatch" babe is selling her prized Dodge Viper and donating the proceeds to People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.
"I've been working with PETA for 15 years," Anderson said. "They're kind of my ethical advisers. With them, I see actual results."
The 40-year-old actress recently held a private estate sale to benefit the animal organization, and she's planning to personally oversee the sale of her 2000 Viper, which she customized herself with white racing stripes. The car plays a prominent role in Anderson's forthcoming E! series, "Pam: Girl on the Loose," but she admitted it was dangerous for her to own such a high-performance vehicle.
"I'm a terrible driver," she said. "It's just not a good idea for me to have a Viper."
The car will be among the offerings at Julien's Auctions' Summer Entertainment Sale of Hollywood memorabilia, to be held June 21 and 22 at the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas. Other items available include Alfred Hitchcock's driver's license, personal snapshots of Marilyn Monroe and Sammy Davis Jr. and an original "Ben Hur" script signed by Charlton Heston. The sale will be broadcast live on Auction Network.
Though Anderson regularly attends charity auctions, she said she's not much of a collector.
"I get sports stuff for my kids," she said. "But me? I, just on a whim, give everything away. This is another one of those opportunities, but it's specific. It goes to the cause."
