SUPERMODEL Elle Macpherson has lashed out at British womens taste in underwear. She says that their lingerie is not only boring, but unsexy. Australian Elle, 39, who has earned millions from her range of skimpy underwear called Intimates, hit out in a TV documentary. She also claimed that she alone has taught women in the UK how to dress seductively under their clothes.
TODAY is the biggest shopping day of the year for lingerie, beating even the frenzied run-up to Christmas. Most underwear sales before Christmas are impractical red lacy numbers bought by men for women - but on New Years Eve women go out and buy more sensible items for themselves. Another reason for huge numbers of shoppers today is put down to unwanted Christmas presents. A spokesman for La Senza says women take back 90 per cent of the lingerie bought by partners.

With little new development, architects are finding themselves busy with government and institutional contracts, storefronts, tenant consolidations and lobby renovations. Additionally, they say, their world is becoming more computerized and hand drafting is headed for extinction. For instance, Moudis said, a law firm may want to get 20 percent more out of an existing 40,000-square-foot space. They may take a 400-square-foot office and make two offices or take the 250-square- foot to 300-square-foot offices and get two 120 square-foot to 150- square-foot offices. “The frills are gone,” Moudis said. “They are spending the money smartly.” In most cases, he explained, the installations are not as extravagant. “You can show wood-trim base and molding but dont have to do wood floor to ceiling,” he added.
Lifestyle Editors/Feature Editors Our goal is to demonstrate to the public that no project is too large or too small to enlist professional help from an interior designer at a reasonable fee, said Diana Walker, ASID chapter president. Whether a designer transforms an outdated kitchen into a modern day dream space, or provides consultation on space planning, furniture placement or selection, accessorizing a room, or wall covering and/or paint color selection — maximizing the potential of a living or work environment can improve a persons well being, said Walker.

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

The credit report is a crucial document. It can make or break a loan. But originators tempted to play games with the credit report may end up wishing they hadnt.THE MORTGAGE ORIGINATION BUSIness is driven by two masters–the need for prudent underwriting and the nagging demand for volume.This, in turn, often places pressures on credit reporting agencies to look the other way or to take advantage of a secondary marketing guideline that may not be as clear on paper as it could be. This is where judgment enters in, and this business is full of situations where lenders are called on to make many very important judgment calls.
Significant changes to the fair credit reporting Act (FCRA) enacted last September will have longterm effects on the mortgage industry. While most mortgage industry professionals were aware of these changes, the impact on credit information quality and the cost to mortgage lenders has yet to be realized. Many are still implementing the changes to internal systems to meet new standards set by the 1997 amendments to the FCRA.Credit reporting agencies changed many of their procedures before the enactment of the Fair Credit Reporting Act amendments on September 30, 1997, and have made other changes since the statutory revisions took effect. The amendments put a spotlight on the accuracy of credit reports, a critical factor as credit scoring becomes much more common in the loan-approval process.Credit scoring is becoming more important as the lending industry tries to limit risk while increasing efficiencies. Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae as well as many lenders are looking more closely at the opportunities offered by risk-based pricing. This makes it more crucial than ever to ensure that credit reports are based on absolutely accurate and up-to-date information.
Despite the great benefits of the current system, however, some analysts have raised concerns about the accuracy, completeness, timeliness, and consistency of consumer credit records and about the effects of data limitations on the availability and cost of credit. These concerns have grown as creditors have begun to rely more on credit history scores (statistical characterizations of an individuals creditworthiness based exclusively on credit record information) and less on labor-intensive reviews of the detailed information in credit reports. Moreover, decisionmakers in areas unrelated to consumer credit, including employment screening and underwriting of property and casualty insurance, increasingly depend on credit records, as studies have shown that such records have predictive value. A previous article in this publication examined in detail the credit records of a large, nationally representative sample of individuals as of June 30, 1999. (1) That analysis revealed the breadth and depth of the information in credit records. It also found, however, that key aspects of the data may be ambiguous, duplicative, or incomplete and that such limitations have the potential to harm or to benefit consumers. Although the earlier analysis contributed to the debate about the quality of the information in credit records, it did not attempt to quantify the effects of data limitations on consumers access to credit. To date, publicly available information about the extent of data quality problems has been limited, as has research on the effects of those problems. (2) The lack of information has inhibited discussion of the problems and of the appropriate ways to address them.

–Roger Ebert in the introduction to Roger Eberts Movie Yearbook 2005 ROGER EBERT, Americas premier movie critic, goes to the pictures at least 500 times a year. Now aged sixty-three, he has been doing this since he was twenty-four, when, as a graduate student at the University of Chicago, he was hired as a reviewer by the Chicago Sun Times. This marathon has not taken the edge off his enthusiasm. Ive watched him heading off to a new movie quite a few times. Invariably he is ebullient with anticipation. Ebert is the only movie critic to have been awarded a Pulitzer Prize. His reviews are syndicated to more than 100 publications and he is the co-star and principal owner of a weekly television show, At the Movies, that has some two million viewers. Ebert is, as well, probably Americas leading cinema scholar, specialising in frame-by-frame analysis of classic movies in jampacked, intellectually bubbling university lecture rooms. He is the author of twenty books that he regularly acknowledges, most of them about the movies and several of them best-sellers, and maybe another dozen he seems to have forgotten.

Freight transport saw a surge in harbour transport and an over 10% increase in road transport. The volume of rail freight transport picked up by 5.4% in the final quarter, year on year, while the volume of road freight transport rose even more, by 9.7%. Although road freight transport declined by a few per cent in Q3, its annual increase in 2006 still reached a high 9.8%, which contributed significantly to the total increase in the transport, storage, and communications sector (road freight transport generates almost a quarter of the value added in this sector). Maritime freight transport fell by 6.4% in 2006 after having surged by 41.7% in 2005 amid the boom in this branch. In the final quarter of 2006, the volume of maritime transport already rose by 4.4%, year on year. Harbour freight transport recorded the biggest increase in Q4, by 17.0%. It also enjoyed the highest annual growth within freight transport (22.5%). Road freight transport has been growing strongly in the past few years, including in 2006, due to the increasing international transport (see the graph). The volume of international road freight transport increased by 12.5% in 2006 while national road freight transport even fell by 3.5%. Within international transport, cross-trade transport and cabotage (transport performed in another country) recorded the highest increase of 16.4%. Measured in tonne kilometres, international transport comprised 81.2% of the total transport of goods by road while national transport totalled 18.8% of the total road freight transport (if the volume of transport is measured solely in tonnes of goods carried and the travelled distances are disregarded, national transport prevails with a 82.5% share). 56.3% of international transport was performed by companies, while slightly over 50% of national transport was carried out by sole entrepreneurs. Own-account transport comprised 3.0% of international transport and 31.1% of national transport (the rest was transport for hire or reward).
Chapter one introduces transportation to the novice as well as any basic text does. The authors treat transportation with the student as a third party, whereas other writers prefer a more personal approach, e.g., this is how good transportation affects you, us, etc. Each instructor has his or her own preference. The text moves along quickly for elementary concepts.The demand for transportation is treated in Chapter 2. Elasticities of demand for both freight and passenger transportation and other economic considerations are covered here. The chapter effectively follows treatment of the social and political aspects of transportation introduced in Chapter 1. The last two chapters of part one deal with government participation in transportation, Chapter 3 with government regulation, Chapter 4 with government policy and promotion. Thus basic concepts dealing with this important topic are dealt with early in the text as a backdrop to what comes later.Part two covers the following modes, in order: motor carriers, rail, air, domestic water, pipelines, plus intermodal/special carriers and international transportation. As in previous editions, the authors organize the modal chapters by industry overview and market structure, service operating characteristics, cost structure, and current issues.
Freight transport saw the volume of road freight transport drop in the third quarter of 2006 after three years of its robust growth. The volume of rail freight transport picked up by 4.2% in Q3, year on year, while the volume of road freight transport fell by 4.3%. International transport performed by freight vehicles registered in Slovenia decreased by just 0.8%, whereas transport within the country recorded a stronger drop of 16.1%. This was the first year-on-year quarterly fall of road freight transport since Q2 of 2003. Q3 of 2006 also witnessed a 10.2% fall in the volume of maritime freight transport. This activity registered the second consecutive year-on-year quarterly decrease, whereas in 2005 it still enjoyed robust growth (41.7%), driven by the boom in the industry. Harbour freight transport surged by 27.6% in Q3 and also recorded a high nine-month year-on-year increase (24.6%). Over the last five years, road freight transport surged by more than 50%, which was almost entirely due to the increase in international transport. In Q3 of 2006 over Q3 of 2001, road freight transport picked up by 56.5% or 1,003 million tonne kilometres (tkm). The shipment of goods out of or into Slovenia rose by 49.1% or 534 million tkm, whereas transport abroad and cabotage (the shipment of goods within another country) shot up 4.3-fold, i.e. by 450 million tkm. Meanwhile, national road freight transport increased by a modest 3.5%, or 19 million tkm. Within the EU, Slovenia is one of the few countries that perform the highest number of per capita road shipments (measured in tkm). The favourable transit position and the countrys smallness (a high share of international trade) underpin Slovenias high proportion of international transport, whose growth has been additionally boosted by the process of Slovenias integration in the EU. The last administrative barriers to carrying out freight transport abroad were removed as Slovenia became a full EU member, which led to the boom in activity seen in recent years.

Own-account transport comprised 3.0% of international transport and 31.1% of national transport (the rest was transport for hire or reward).
In the final quarter of 2007, passenger transport saw the largest increase in air transport and the largest decline in city bus transport. Within land passenger transport, the declining trend of bus transport continued. The annual decline in the number of passengers in intercity and city bus transport (-3.9% and -3.5%, respectively) was also similar to the average annual decrease in the last three years (5.9% and 3.3%, respectively). The volume of railway passenger transport in the final quarter of 2007 did not strengthen significantly year on year; the 2.4% growth recorded in 2007 was also only slightly above the three-year average (2.1%). Air transport and airport transport posted vigorous growth in the final quarter of last year (27.6% and 19.6% year on year, respectively). The increases in 2007 (13.7% and 13.3%, respectively) were also somewhat greater relative to the average annual rises in the last few years. In air transport, this also enabled an increase in aircraft fleet (lease of one and purchase of two new aircrafts) and in airport transport, the completion of the first phase of the new passenger terminal and arrival of two new airline companies, which started to fly regularly from Ljubljanas airport last year. Within freight transport, road transport has increased significantly, whereas maritime freight transport is still decreasing slightly, following the boom recorded in this branch two years before. In the final quarter last year, the volume of freight transport by rail decreased by 3.7% relative to the same quarter of 2006, whereas 2007 as a whole saw a solid 6.8% growth, which exceeded the average growth in the last three years (4.6%). Road freight transport strengthened by as much as 19.1% in the final quarter of 2007; the high 13.4% annual growth nevertheless fell short of the annual average of the last three years by almost 2.p.p. Against the background of favourable international trends, maritime freight transport increased by a respective 30.6% and 41.8% in 2004 and 2005, whereas it dropped by a respective 6.4% and 5.2% in 2006 and 2007. The fall in the volume of maritime transport in the final quarter last year (-8.7%) indicates that the slowdown continues. Harbour freight transport in the final quarter and in 2007 as a whole recorded only a slight increase, particularly compared to the high 22.5% growth in 2006 (average annual growth in the last three years totalled 9.5%). Road freight transport by domestic carriers recorded a much stronger increase than railway freight transport over the last few years, largely due to the increasing international transport (see graph). The volume of road freight transport (in tonne kilometres - tkm), which was almost as much as three times greater than railway transport in 2004, increased by 4,728 million tkm until 2007 (by 52.5%), whereas railway transport increased only by 454 million tkm (by 14.4%). In three years, road freight transport became almost four times greater than railway transport; the share of road transport within freight transport rose to 79.2%. Road transport growth strengthened particularly after Slovenias accession to the EU and mainly through increased international transport (see SEM 1/2008: 14). The largest increase was recorded in cross-trade transport and cabotage, by 2,161 million tkm (by 155.2%). International transport of goods loaded in Slovenia increased by 1,323 million tkm (by 49.4%) and international transport of goods unloaded in Slovenia by 937 million tkm (by 35.1%). National road transport in Slovenia increased by a mere 306 million tkm (by 13.5%).

The Art of Effective Piano Teaching, by Dino P. Ascari. AuthorHouse (1663 Liberty Dr., Ste. 200, Bloomington, IN 47403), 2003. 121 pp. $14.50. The books strongest features are its consideration of the personal dynamic between teacher and student, especially in the traditional one-to-one tutorial setting and its emphasis on motivation. Inexperienced teachers often underestimate the importance of a structured routine when developing practice habits for beginning students. Teachers will find ideas for establishing appropriate goals and consistently evaluating each students progress. He advocates clear practice assignments, including the number of repetitions for drills rather than time spent at the piano. Even experienced teachers could benefit from a refreshing reminder that structure and consistency are critical components in a childs learning process. The one glaring oversight regarding motivation is the importance of repertoire as a motivator and the need for teachers to constantly explore new repertoire that will capture a young students desire to make expressive sounds at the piano. This book does not attempt to offer comprehensive coverage of the information and skills inexperienced teachers will need in the early stages of their careers, and it is not an appropriate choice as a textbook in piano pedagogy or a guide to preparing for professional teacher certification. There is no survey of materials or consideration of the criteria for choosing effective materials. Oddly enough, the author recommends using two method books so beginners have appealing music to play in middle-C position and a structured approach to reading notation using the landmark/intervalic approach. The reader should use discretion when considering some of the recommendations about keyboard theory and technique. For learning a new piece, Ascari recommends that students achieve proficiency playing hands separately at a fast tempo before attempting to put the hands together at a much slower tempo. Creative teachers would do well to search for alternative techniques, like tapping rhythms that develop coordination between the hands. While there is no mention of technology as a teaching tool or group instruction, Ascaris insights into the traditional piano lesson clearly are based on years of successful teaching. He conveys the importance of respecting each student as an individual and the tremendous potential for motivating students to gain self-esteem through music study. Reviewed by Kenneth T.

Plan bans tax increases in the first five years of a unified government The Consolidation Commission of Topeka and Shawnee County decided Thursday to prohibit any merged city/county government from raising property tax mill levies for the first five years of consolidation. Commissioners expressed a renewed sense of optimism for the fate of a plan to consolidate Topeka and Shawnee County governments after voting 5-0 to approve the tax hike ban, which could be changed only through a public referendum.
MERGER MEASURE The Topeka Capital-Journal plans on Sunday to publish a copy of the unification plan approved Tuesday by the Consolidation Commission of Topeka and Shawnee County.

Web advertisings chief attraction, aside from the bargain-bin price scheme, has traditionally been the quantifiable click-through. If thats not enough for you, a Japanese research firm has developed another tool to determine online marketing effectiveness: an eye-tracker. The idea isnt quite as intrusive as it sounds: the people whose eye movements are tracked are the same focus group volunteers used by marketing directors to test advertisements and Web sites. The difference is that an eye tracker provides more objective feedback rather than traditional subjective feedback from methods like interviews, JCMR says.

Introduction I apologize if parts of this article are polemical, but I passionately believe that the United States is missing an enormous opportunity by underutilizing English language training to project soft power and reap a bonanza of good will. The Importance of the SATP and the Role of English Language Training in its Success
TRAINING OF specialist language teachers must improve and increase if the Government is to hit its target for every primary school pupil to learn a foreign language, education inspectors say. Ofsted, the schools watchdog, found that trainee French teachers recruited in a ministerial drive to encourage children aged 7 to 11 to learn a foreign language were not highly skilled in the language. Some had only a GCSE in the subject and some could not pronounce common words properly or use basic grammar, a report on primary modern foreign languages concluded. The report said a rapid expansion in the number of primary language specialists being trained was needed if the target of providing language lessons for all primary pupils by 2012 was to be met.

TO ACHIEVE ITS PEARLY WHITE COLOR, most paper goes through a bleaching process that uses some of the world s more toxic chemicals. Assuming we cant live without bright white paper, does it have to be bleached with chlorine, or are there feasible alternatives? In addition, Beaton says bleaching paper with chlorine uses vast amounts of water. It takes 10.15 gallons of water to produce a six-and-a-half-ounce booklet, says Beaton. [Using a chlorine-free alternative] uses less than a half gallon per booklet. Chlorine also has side effects that are seen across the globe, sometimes in places nowhere near the paper mills that produced them. According to Greenpeace, these pollutants have been found in the Arctic, where polar bears, whales and marine mammals have elevated chlorine levels.

CoffeeA driving force behind coffees global popularity is its caffeine content: a six-ounce (2.72 kilograms) cup of coffee contains 100 milligrams of caffeine, more than comparable amounts of tea (50 milligrams), cola (25 milligrams), or cocoa (15 milligrams). Caffeine, an alkaloid that occurs naturally in coffee, is a mild stimulant that produces a variety of physical effects. Because caffeine stimulates the cortex of the brain, people who ingest it experience enhanced concentration. Athletes are sometimes advised to drink coffee prior to competing, as caffeine renders skeletal muscles less susceptible to exhaustion and improves coordination. However, these benefits accrue only to those who consume small doses of the drug. Excessive amounts of caffeine produce a host of undesirable consequences, acting as a diuretic, stimulating gastric secretions, upsetting the stomach, contracting blood vessels in the brain (people who suffer from headaches are advised to cut their caffeine intake), and causing overacute sensation, irregular heartbeat, and trembling. On a more serious level, many researchers have sought to link caffeine to heart disease, benign breast cysts, pancreatic cancer, and birth defects. While such studies have proven inconclusive, health official nonetheless recommend that people limit their coffee intake to fewer than four cups daily or drink decaffeinated varieties.
Overheard at the Reform Club dining room the other day, as a lady diner was ordering her pudding: Diner: Please can you bring coffee with my pudding. Waitress: Im afraid coffee is only served in the lounge. D: Then can you send someone to the lounge to get a cup of coffee and bring it in here with my pudding. W: Im afraid coffee is only served and drunk in the lounge.
Coffee houses have been regarded as cultural meeting places since the 17th century in western civilization when artists writers and political activists first started to meet and discuss topics of social interest over a cup of this stimulating drink. The poet Baudelaire in Paris in the 1840s described coffee as best served “black as night hot as hell and sweet as love.” Coffee seems always to have been part of the American landscape as it was a common feature on the chuckwagons of the prairie pioneers and cattle ranchers and in the break-rooms of companies and board rooms. Coffee is so popular in diners and roadside eateries that it is served almost as often as water. But for most of its history coffee was just coffee a commodity that was not associated with brand name or image. All that changed beginning in the 1980s as the result of a convergence of two trends. Americans looking for a socially-acceptable alternative to drug and alcohol intake were well-served by a proliferation of retailers eager to provide high-priced “gourmet” coffee to discriminating drinkers. Specialty shops such as Starbucks in Seattle and Peets Coffee in Berkeley have expanded to national chains whose popularity has eclipsed that of national brands such as Maxwell House and Folgers which spread across America in the fifties. In addition hundreds of independent cafeacute;s and coffee houses were founded in every major American city throughout the 1990s. In the Pacific Northwest–the capital of coffee consumption in America–drive-up espresso shacks line the roadsides providing a variety of coffee drinks to commuters willing to pay $3.50 for a 20-ounce Cafeacute; Mocha with a double shot of espresso. Even a small town like Snohomish Washington with a population of only 8000 boasts a dozen espresso shacks.

NEW YORK (AP) — Pepsi is getting a face lift for its 100th birthday. Pepsi was careful to say the change is not intended solely to distinguish it further from rival Coca-Cola, which has been using red for almost all of its 111-year history. “We have a rich heritage of continually updating our look to stay relevant with the times,” Pepsi spokesman Brad Shaw said. “This is the latest example, and it happens to come when therell be a lot of attention on Pepsi.” Shaw said final adjustments still need to be made, but the background of the new can will be bright royal blue with a cracked- ice appearance. The Pepsi name that runs up the side will be white, and the only remaining red will be on the round Pepsi logo. Pepsi began testing a version of the new can in New Orleans and Des Moines, Iowa, late last year. A different blue can was unveiled in Britain in April 1996 along with a $500 million advertising campaign. That can was expanded to other overseas markets, including parts of Asia and the Middle East. Shaw said once a final version is unveiled in December, all of Pepsis cans will look the same worldwide. “Were a global brand, and we should have one look and one feel around the world,” he said. Pepsi last overhauled its look in 1991, adopting modern lettering and placing its logo on a red pedestal running more than halfway up the can. Coca-Cola is testing a contoured can, which is designed to look and feel like one of its classic bottles, in several U.S. markets. It has not said when it will introduce the curvy can nationwide.
A legislative group wants to give the Utah Technology Industry Council a face lift to make it better able to address tech-sector issues. The state Technology Industry Commission on Wednesday passed out draft legislation that would make sweeping changes to the council, a state entity since 2003 that has discussed industry matters and suggested legislation considered by the commission. To ensure the committees have the help they need, the Office of Legislative Research and General Counsel would assist UTIC, and the Governors Office of Economic Development would help the ad-hoc committees. The bill also would eliminate a requirement that the council have joint meetings with the technology commission.
The addition of front and back porches with distinctive rooflines transformed this humble 1950s home. Some houses are simply blah. Theres nothing really wrong with them; they just lack personality or distinguishing features. Such was the condition of Phyllis Sales 1950s home in Richmond. It was crying out for a face-lift, but Phyllis didnt want to make drastic alterations to the body of the house. The front porch is also detached from the existing roofline, adding to the floating effect. The detached roof has a gutter on the back edge that picks up water and feeds it into the main gutter on the front of the house. It also includes a discreet wheelchair-accessible ramp to the right, allowing entry to the porch from the side of the house. The attached back porch is screened in, but it mirrors the framing details of the front porch. “The most radical intervention to the existing house was replacing one of the front windows,” says Burt. “We redefined it to be consistent with the Arts and Crafts attitude.”

CARS and sex are like bangers and mash: popular, enduring and a little bit cliched. The fancy motor has always been a symbol of potent masculinity; a hard, fast, powerful machine that guzzles fuel and impresses ladies. But the trophy boys have trouble keeping their trophy chicks. Eddie Irvine is a case in point. The Ulster scally has had a menagerie of B-list models to parade upon his arm, impressing them with his champagne wastage and general lack of politesse. He dated the wife of Ronan Keating, but was then dumped for the top Boyzone fop, proving that a neat way with the old gear stick means nothing when it comes to love. Perhaps BAR driver Jacques Villeneuve will change the rubber- burning ways of Formula One. The hawkish himbo recently announced his engagement to Dannii Minogue. See? Racing drivers can commit. Perhaps taste will come in time.
TOOELE — The Heroes of Speed event at Miller Motorsports Park is billed as a race. It should be double billed as a race and a museum. As interesting as the races are to fans, equally interesting are the cars entered. Most have an interesting historical past. In some cases they were famous cars that were pushed into the background by newer, faster cars. There they stayed until a few years ago when a new interest in the old race cars sprung up.

In the article Preparing to Buy A Home in the March 2006 issue, I noticed that it talked about preparing a budget, but didnt give details. As someone with a 15-year mortgage who is about to make my Sinai payment, I think you need to advise new homeowners to build plenty of flexibility into their budget for maintenance and upkeep. Building wealth is important, but not taking care of the biggest asset most Americans have is a waste of money. Please encourage our people to consider home upkeep when configuring their budget, so our homes appreciate, especially in neighborhoods primarily occupied by minorities. Buying homes to build wealth but not maintaining them is living beyond our means and is just as bad as losing ground in any other area of our finances.

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

The upswing in the economy has meant better business for office furniture and equipment dealers this year. However, some dealers around the county say that some businesses are still looking for ways to stretch a buck when buying for the office. According to the Business and Institutional Furniture Manufacturers Association, office furniture buying in the United States shrank in 2001, 2002 and 2003. The association expects to see a 5.1 percent increase in sales this year and is projecting a 9.3 percent increase next year, the best since 2000.
Sticking with our makeover theme, you may want to think twice before you scrap your old office furniture. Rather than sending it off to a landfill, think sustainability instead. With that thought in mind, furniture-maker Haworth Inc. and students from Archeworks, Chicagos alternative design school, joined forces to devise a strategy for extending the life of office furniture by developing innovative uses for it once its traditional “end of life” has been reached. Among the furniture students creatfrom discarded systems panels and overhead storage bins were a toy box, a day bed, and a product called the Unit for Living (pictured), a piece that incorporates a bed, storage, and a desk.

Buying a home is often the largest purchase decision a person will make. It is therefore not surprising that the use of home inspectors is increasing as buyers seek to confirm the physical condition of their purchases. Home inspectors, however, have often been referred to as “deal killers” by real estate licensees because they have, on occasion, been responsible for stopping a sale of residential real estate that would have otherwise been completed. More recently, however, licensees are viewing home inspections somewhat differently. Instead of perceiving home inspectors as a potential source of reducing a real estate licensees income, licensees are viewing them as a way to increase future sales and reduce potential liability on the buyer side of the transaction.This study examines the role that home inspections play in the residential real estate home buying process. To date, no study has considered this impact on the sales process. Furthermore, the performance, process and other characteristics of those sales agents that have been involved with a home inspection in the residential sales process are unknown.
SYRACUSE - Absolute Home Inspection, Inc. owner Thomas Sherman wants his clients to know all the important details about their future homes. The home inspector uses a software program to produce an inspection report on CD-ROM that incorporates digital pictures as well as text. Sherman had the software program created so he could deliver a professionallooking inspection report.”If you see my writing,” he says, “youd know why I dont do handwritten reports.”Sherman entered the home-inspection business five years ago after an injury limited his ability to work in the home-building business. He invested about $11,000 in training and equipment before starting Absolute Home Inspection, Inc. The inspection equipment includes a series of ladders, digital cameras, a computer, and a group of detectors that seek out carbon monoxide or other harmful gases inside a home.
OAKLAND — Firefighters with Oakland Fire Station 23 pulled up to a home on Sunkist Drive and immediately made a checklist of what was wrong with the property around the dilapidated white house. Weeds on the land near the road were knee high, dry and brown. The red brick chimney on the roof did not have a spark arrestor. A pile of dead and rotting vegetation was laying against a wall and there was no address number in sight. Firefighters from every station in the hills are going from house to house this month inspecting property for fire safety. They want homeowners to maintain a “defensible” space around their homes, a 30- to 100-foot space clear from overgrown grasses, weeds and tree limbs. Fire consumes this sort of vegetation first, then spreads to larger trees and homes.

WHITE ASH IS PROBABLY BEST known as the wood most often used for making baseball bats in the United States. But the wood has many other commercial uses and is a popular wood both domestically and on the export market. Ash has long been a favorite for use in sporting goods and tool handles because of its strength, relative light weight and shock absorbancy. It is a popular choice for hockey sticks, billiard cues, skis, oars and other sporting equipment. Before man-made materials took over the market, it was also the preferred wood for making tennis rackets. It is the porous bands of spring-growth that lend the flexibility, strength and reliability to ash, almost as if its growth were a natural lamination process, according to the Encyclopedia of Wood.
A BURGLAR who was badly beaten with a baseball bat while trying to steal from a house got what he deserved, a judge said yesterday. David Summers, 21, a drug addict, suffered a broken wrist, fractured elbow, cracked ribs and a cracked skull before managing to escape. Lee Gapper, 20, and his lodger George Goodayle attacked Summers after he broke into their house in Peterborough, Cambridgeshire. Summers was repeatedly hit by Mr Gapper using the metal baseball bat after being confronted downstairs - then Mr Goodayle, 21, set about him with his fists.

Housing experts are predicting that any increase in mortgage rates in 1997 will be more than matched by a rise in property prices. TSB says mortgage rates will have hit 8.25 per cent by the end of the year, pushing homebuying costs up to pounds 30.70 of every pounds 100 of take-home pay - pounds 5.10 more than we pay now. Mortgage broker John Charcol is even more pessimistic and expects mortgage rates to hit 8.75 per cent. But the costs, says leading housing analyst Rob Thomas of City firm UBS, should be more than met by soaring house prices.

Negotiating The Fraud Exclusion It is important for policyholders to understand, however, that the exact wording of the exclusion can differ substantially from policy to policy. This can have important practical ramifications for directors and officers. For example, in some instances, the terms of the exclusion may allow an insurance company to refuse to provide a director or officer with a defense to a claim in a lawsuit asserting fraud; the director or officer therefore will be obligated to retain and pay for his or her own attorney. In other situations, the exclusion only may prohibit an insurance company from indemnifying a director or officer once fraud has been proven in the underlying lawsuit; the director or officer is much more likely to avoid having to pay any costs out-of-pocket with this form of the exclusion.

The current market for fuel cells is $218 million and will increase to $2.4 billion by 2004, reaching $7 billion by 2009. Most fuel cells today are found in distributed generation applications in the power market, providing dedicated electrical energy to hospitals, restaurants, schools and other facilities. In the next few years, fuel cells are expected to show up in tens of thousands of automobiles, and by 2010, automotive fuel cells are estimated to have nearly 4 percent of the consumer market - 608,000 vehicles.

Marked by diversity and range, the entertainment industry comprises producers and distributors of motion picture films, prerecorded music tapes and discs, operas. Concerts, stage shows, and other types of entertainment on a payment or fee admission. Two major segments of the entertainment industry, namely, prerecorded music and entertainment motion picture films, are global pacesetters and import export earners. While the economic recovery has been a contributing factor to the surge in prerecorded sales, equally important has been the proliferation of music video and the emergence of new sound effects. Music that accompany a musical numbeR, have had a great impact on the industry. They have dramatically increased sales of records that received only a mild reception after radio broadcast. Also, the technique has been largely responsible for the successful introduction of new vocals and musical groups to the music industry in general. The outlook for the music industry is one of continued growth, based on a strong economy, the excitement over music videos, the emergence of new artists and groups, and the recent introduction of the compact disk. Some moderating effect, however, may be expected by the changing age composition of the U.S. population, which will contain a lower proportion of young people between 1984 and 1990.
