The Liberal National Government's Unfair Plans For $100,000 University Degrees
Click here to watch Sharon's speech
Ms BIRD (Cunningham) (15:36): It is a great pleasure to participate in this debate in our usual engaging but respectful manner from this side of the chamber. We have come to almost the final business of the House this week. I am looking at how things have developed since we have returned in 2015 and reflect on how we started the week. It started with a fairly significant activity on the other side of the chamber around the leadership of the party.
A government member interjecting—
Ms BIRD: The member is quite right, I well remember the issues for any party dealing with leadership. The interesting thing out of the whole process was that we ended up with the same Prime Minister; however, what was significant and important was that we were told we had had pretty poor quality government up to that point in time, but good government was about to start.
I thought, 'This'll be interesting!' On Monday the higher education bill was on the Notice Paper to be debated. I thought, 'Clearly, that's going. Clearly, that bill is about to be pulled because we have now been told that we're going to have good government.' Sadly, on Thursday afternoon it is still there. Mind you, they keep pushing back the debate on it, but it is still there. Why is it still there? Obviously, the government has not realised yet—although it baffles me why it would be the case—that the potential for students to have significant increases in the cost of their university education is roundly rejected by the community.
The member who spoke previously in this debate spoke about the sector. She said that the sector supports the decision; the sector has expressed support for deregulation of fees. What she failed to mention is that by 'sector', she means a range of vice-chancellors. I do not think she is talking about the people who will carry that lifetime debt—the students.
I attended in Albury, only last week, a fabulous forum for regional universities organised by the member for Indi, who has a direct interest and profound concern for regional universities. Representatives of students there were expressing their absolute objection to the fact that these reforms will see them carry a lifetime of debt, well beyond what was envisaged by any of us who have the privilege of sitting in this place. It is the wrong way to go.
The reality, as the shadow minister outlined, was that in any other—
Government members interjecting—
Ms BIRD: Let's just look at the evidence. Let's just stick to the facts. First of all, there are universities who have put out the actual amounts that they will be charging under the deregulated scheme for a range of courses, and the shadow minister gave just one example from Western Australia. To become a lawyer and get legal qualifications at university will cost $95,000. That is a fact for you. Here is another fact. In the UK, where they deregulated, they put a cap of £9,000 on fees. Out of 123 universities there, how many universities charged less than the maximum cap?—two. So, given an opportunity, when they had a 20 per cent cut to make up, the university sector has not shown, historically, any inclination to lower their prices. In fact, in our current scheme, the universities are deregulated to some extent in that they can charge less than the maximum that is set. They could actually decreased their fees now, if they would like to. I would invite members opposite to come to their dispatch box and describe to me the rush of universities who have decreased their fees below the maximum. Since Brendan Nelson brought that deregulation in, where is the rush of universities charging less? It is a furphy, and this bill should be pulled. New government, good government— (Time expired)


When it comes to Lowe's marketing mix, the product, price, and place are becoming more and more similar with its number one competitor. They carry the same products, their prices are very similar on many items, and they are located in the same areas, if not on the same street. The main difference that brings strength to Lowe's is the promotion.
According to one article ("How Lowe's Hammers," 2004), Lowe's research within the industry has shown them an interesting technique of promoting its products. "Thanks to its extensive customer research, Lowe's concluded several years ago that 80% of home-improvement decisions were initiated not my men, but by women." The article continues, "Lowe's began making its stores cleaner and brighter and adding more designer-name goods by the likes of Laura Ashley and Michael Graves."
This is a fantastic way to promote their products over their competitor, Home Depot. These stores are huge warehouses that are not appealing at all. They have an ominous, overwhelming feeling to them as you walk through the cement covered aisles with less than perfect lighting. This is not only unappealing to the female consumer, but it can have a psychological affect on men as well. When the atmosphere of the store is pleasing, it makes a difference.

Venezuela vote – Turnout figure 'tampered with.
On August 2, 2017 By raskorsa
Turnout numbers for Sunday's controversial vote in Venezuela have been "tampered with", the company that provided the voting system alleges.
Venezuela's electoral authorities said more than eight million people voted in the elections for a new constituent assembly.
But the CEO of Smartmatic, Antonio Mugica, said the actual turnout differed by at least one million.
The opposition has also said the figures were inflated.
What did the voting firm have to say?
"It is with the deepest regret that we have to report that the turnout numbers on Sunday 30th July for the Constituent Assembly in Venezuela were tampered with," Mr Mugica told a media conference in London.
He added that although the company's system had recorded the true number of voters, a full audit would have to take place before he could give the precise figure.
Asked why he had not contacted the Venezuelan authorities, Mr Mugica said he thought they "would not be sympathetic to what we'd say".
Smartmatic provided about 24,000 machines for Venezuelans to cast their votes electronically.
According to the company, their system supplied correct voting statistics but altered results were announced in their place.

A quick update and some video links here. I found the studio! It's located at 43 Towns rd. in Etobicoke. I love it! I've been documenting the process so far and although not much has happened so far, I'm still very excited. As I write this, most of the studio is still in storage in Niagara-on-the-Lake. The Spring thaw has made the area around it a giant mud pit so nobody can get near it with a truck. Hopefully that all changes soon! Enjoy!

Q: Is it possible in either HTML or CSS to prompt a user to choose a set of colours in Firefox? I've just been performing some browser testing, and noticed a pop-up that appeared during one of my tests using Firefox that prompted me to choose various colours; there was also a button labelled "Add to Custom Colors". I would say that I'm a power user of both Firefox and Chrome, and have never seen this promtp before; it appears to have been generated from one of the URLs that had been loaded in the background, but unfortunately I don't have the address to hand. I haven't been able to find anything useful during my searching efforts - is there a piece of HTML or CSS that could trigger such a pop-up?

A: The color value for the type attribute of an input is supported in all modern browsers.
The UI will vary from browser to browser (and may use an OS-native UI).

<input type="color" value="#e66465" id="color_picker">
<label for="color_picker">Pick a colour</label>

A: You might be looking for a html from field with input type color. This input type shows a browser dependent color picker, and browsers not implementing anything typically fall back as if the type was simply text.

Johnson handed clear mandate to 'fulfill Brexit' in U.K. election
By Michael Coren. Published on Dec 13, 2019 10:00am
"In brief, this is a clear mandate to fulfill Brexit, and fulfill it quickly, and take Britain out of Europe, and a rejection of the hard-left policies of Jeremy Corbyn. To a certain degree Boris Johnson was almost irrelevant, in that it was Brexit and Corbyn rather than the character and ability of the Conservative leader that decided all this."
U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson (Annika Haas/Wikimedia Commons)
No matter what alleged experts might claim, nobody anticipated the results of the UK election.
As late as Thursday afternoon there were predictions that the Labour Party could form a government with the support of the Scottish National Party and the Liberal Democrats. Or perhaps there would be another hung parliament. Instead, Labour suffered its fourth defeat in succession, was reduced to the lowest number of seats in living memory, and lost in working-class, blue-collar ridings that have been Labour strongholds for generations. The Conservatives under Boris Johnson have a huge majority and have been given five years of government.
In brief, this is a clear mandate to fulfil Brexit, and fulfil it quickly, and take Britain out of Europe, and a rejection of the hard-left policies of Jeremy Corbyn. To a certain degree Boris Johnson was almost irrelevant, in that it was Brexit and Corbyn rather than the character and ability of the Conservative leader that decided all this.
On Brexit, the exhaustion is almost palpable. I returned from Britain a few days ago, after spending two weeks speaking with MPs, senior media figures, church leaders, and academics, and the only issue where I found consensus was the draining yet dominant status of Brexit. Whatever people thought of it — and most of those I met were opposed — they wanted it resolved. Johnson campaigned on "Let's get it done", while Corbyn oozed ambivalence and uncertainty.
But the problems with the Labour leader went far, far deeper than that. As Nick Cohen, one of the most perceptive and prolific commentators on British politics wrote in The Spectator, "Jeremy Corbyn's opposition did not win a majority and could never win a majority because millions could not vote for the incompetent and indecent Jeremy Corbyn. It's that simple."
I spent the first 28 years of my life in Britain, and the perennial backbencher Corbyn was regarded as a fringe political figure, supporting extreme and even violent revolutionary organizations in Ireland, the Middle East and elsewhere. The idea of him being a minister, let alone party leader, was preposterous. Yet it happened, and the doors for party membership were suddenly opened to former members of hard left and Marxist groups.
The party moved left, but also took on a new harshness and intolerance, especially around the subject of Israel/Palestine, leading to often justified accusations of anti-Semitism. The culprits may have been relatively few, but they were dealt with — when they were addressed at all — far too slowly and reluctantly by Corbyn and his staff. This, a lack of obvious leadership qualities, and profound internal divisions scratched away at the party base.
Even so, Jeremy Corbyn seemed to have an apparent popularity, one that we now know was extremely deceptive, revealing the deeply misleading nature of social media. Young people, activists, and celebrities, told us on Twitter and its siblings that the tide was red with socialism and that Comrade Corbyn was the nation's hope. The actual result could not have been more different.
Of the smaller parties, the Liberal Democrats remain a rump, the Greens were unable to advance beyond a single seat, and the Democratic Unionists, the largest party of Northern Ireland's Protestant community, has lost the power it possessed when propping up a minority Conservative government. The Scottish nationalists, the SNP, did well in a country that is far more self-consciously European than its southern neighbour. The party will push for another referendum, and oppose Brexit, but with a comfortable Tory majority there is a limit to what it can achieve.
The Conservatives themselves are a different party now, returning to the tone and composition of what it was under Margaret Thatcher more than 25 years ago. It's more right wing, more northern, more anti-European, than it was; as such, it could also reshape the political climate in Britain for a generation to come. Labour has to reinvent itself, shed its recent reputation, and try to expunge the "Corbynista" image. Whether it can, even if it wants to, will become clear in the coming months.
The country's politics will be dominated by Brexit, and as such it has to face the potentially worrying challenges of Northern Ireland's border with the Irish Republic, a member of the European Union. But there are also the enormous problems caused by the government's austerity policy, the decline of the National Health Service, and the increasing gulf between rich and poor.
2020 will likely be the most momentous for Britain's place in the world and its self-perception since the decline of empire and even the Second World War. Whether Boris Johnson is the best person to be Prime Minister at such a time is open to question, but it doesn't matter as the electorate has spoken. Now, as they say, it all begins.

Post subject: Solar panels and legionella risk?
My father-in-law was persuaded to fit water heating solar panels, when they were fitted the immersion heater in the cistern was removed, so unless central heating is running it is unlikely to hit 60 degs C. They seem to have used the old cistern not the new type with very good heat exchangers and hot water at mains pressure.
House is up for sale, no one has picked up on shower water is from the cistern as yet, is it a problem?
Post subject: Re: Solar panels and legionella risk?
I'd be more concerned about the contract with the solar panel company. Very often they own the panels on a leasehold arrangement and hold a charge over the property.
I have heard of that for electric solar panels, but this is about water heating solar panels, is it the same "rules"
What make of solar panels are these?
I have never heard of any system where the tap water goes through the panels.
Usually the panel fluid is pumped around the solar circuit and heats the hot water through a coil in the cylinder, the same as an normal indirect heating system.
Do I risk fixing my double glazed Skylight panel?
Is it very high risk wacker plate damages underground pipe?

Q: How do I use DarkIcons.dll in a Windows Phone 8 app? Building my first Windows Phone 8 app and I am bringing in a few icons to use in the appbar. As I am picking the icons in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows Phone\v8.0\Icons\Dark I see that there is a file called DarkIcons.dll.
Can I use this dll as a resource file and then bind to icons in it?
If so how does that binding work? What does the binding look like?

A: For AppBar icons, you should use the white "dark" icons in that folder or from other resources like modernuiicons. Add these to your project as a resource and set the icon to be this image. If your application is used on a device that has a light theme, the phone will turn the icons black for you. No need for you to do anything!

A: Well. You need not to do anything with .dll file for App Bar icons. You need not to worry about that dll file. Because while you create the new project, all dll files will be initiated. This dll is the primary file. Windows sdk will care about more than you
Simply copy and paste the desired icons from "dark" folder in the solution explorer.
Simply call that image and you can use all icons like this.
If your phone theme was dark, then the colors of icons will be light and vice versa.
Hope this could be useful to you. All the best.

Adora Calcium Milk Chocolate is a calcium dietary supplement offered in the form of disks milk chocolate.
The product is manufactured by Thompson Brands a company specialized in developing innovative chocolate based products since 1879. The idea of this supplement came from the desire of the manufacturer to help people get the necessary calcium intake from a product that people already enjoy eating.
The formula is claimed to be the result of a five year research. It is a natural provider of antioxidants (from chocolate), Calcium, Vitamin D3 and magnesium. It is advertised as a delicious alternative for those who want to indulge their chocolate cravings while fulfilling their calcium needs.
The minimal percentage of added sugars in Adora Calcium Milk Chocolate is also an important factor to be considered an alternative for individuals concerned with their weight. The formula is also Kosher certified and caffeine free.

1) What is Adora Calcium Milk Chocolate?
Adora Calcium Milk Chocolate is based on natural ingredients usually used for manufacturing milk chocolate in a recipe which also features Calcium, Magnesium and vitamin D3.
While calcium is mostly important for strong bones, its benefits extend to keeping healthy heart muscles, to help the nervous system communicate and assists in blood clotting. But without Vitamin D, Calcium cannot be absorbed by our body. Lack of Vitamin D determines the body to absorb Calcium from its sores in the skeleton, leaving them weak. Vitamin D also helps maintain adequate blood levels of Calcium and Phosphorus.
Calcium insufficiency is the main cause for osteoporosis, one of the most common bone diseases known today. Latest research on Magnesium also revealed beneficial properties in preventing osteoporosis.
Thompson Brands' formula combines these nutrients with the antioxidants from chocolate. It has been shown that consumption of dark or light-processed chocolate helps reduce harmful effects of free radicals. Although there is no concrete evidence of the scientific research which led up to the development of this formula, testimonials from consumers are generally positive.
2) Details on Adora Calcium Milk Chocolate Ingredients and Uses
Adora Calcium Milk Chocolate formula contains the following ingredients: Sugar, Cocoa Butter, Calcium Carbonate, Chocolate Liquor, Milk, Magnesium Oxide, Soy Lecithin (an emulsifier), Vanilla, and Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol, derived from lanolin).
3) Does Adora Calcium Milk Chocolate Work?
Throughout the years, testing and research made on calcium and its effects on the human body have proven that it has a positive effect on the bones and teeth, making them stronger, thus reducing the risk of fractures later in life. Some research suggests that a calcium and vitamin D3 supplement, might also alleviate PMS symptoms, help prevent insomnia, and may play a role in reducing high blood pressure.
Magnesium also helps with bones and teeth but is most useful when dealing with the heart, muscles, and kidneys. Some research suggests that magnesium might even play a major role in memory. Also, magnesium deficiency might lead to depression and mood swings. Magnesium's role has not yet been determined in conditions such as asthma, depression, diabetes, fibromyalgia, noise-related hearing loss, arrhythmia and heart failure, high blood pressure, migraine headache, osteoporosis, preeclampsia and eclampsia, premenstrual syndrome, and restless legs syndrome. However, some research indicates that magnesium does play a role in the formerly mentioned conditions and its input has yet to be certified.
The effects vitamin D3 alone has on the human body have yet to be proven; however, research indicates that it helps the body better absorb calcium and magnesium, thus being helpful when the individual is looking to improve bone structure. Some research suggests that vitamin D3 might play a decisive role in preventing and fighting cancer, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, hypertension and autoimmune disorders; however, further research is needed to prove or disprove vitamin D3's Effectiveness.
4) What Adora Calcium Milk Chocolate Does?
Innovative formula Calcium Chocolate
The formula received good reviews from consumers.
5) What You Need to Know Before Taking Adora Calcium Milk Chocolate

7) Adora Calcium Milk Chocolate Directions

This product is not recommended for those known to suffer from mild ore severe allergies to milk or nuts. Adora Calcium Milk Chocolate has received some good reviews from consumers, making us assume it will accomplish its purpose for some consumers at least.
Adora Calcium Milk Chocolate is different from other similar supplements because it combines the medical benefits of calcium vitamins and minerals in a very popular product such as chocolate.It is a certified kosher formula with low quantities of caffeine and added sugars.

The main issue with synthetic ingredients is that you don't always get what you pay for. In reality, synthetic ingredients are well known for their low absorption, poor bioavailability, and the fact that they drain the body's reserves of other minerals and vitamins (e.g., cofactors) required for proper absorption of other nutrients.
At BrainReference we recognize that dietary supplements can be the source of many allergic responses either due to cross-contamination with high-allergen compounds during the manufacturing process or because they incorporate ingredients obtained from high-risk allergenic foods (milk, eggs, or fish).
Companies with less integrity will use dangerous fillers as a "grease or lube" to aid in easier and faster production. Artificial dyes and colors are used to make supplements more appealing to the eye. Coatings are added to make capsules easier to swallow. How do these fillers impact your body and health?
Independent testing labs are not associated with the producing company, ingredients supplier, the company whose name appears on the product, or with the consumer. This means independent testing labs have no vested interest in the result of the testing and are less likely to "dry lab" or manipulate test results for self-serving reasons.

COVID-19 "Hotspots" Project Description
Why and how has the COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated pre-existing social, political, and racial inequalities? The following case studies on COVID-19 "hotspots" are the culmination of a joint research project in the summer of 2020, co-sponsored by the Rapoport Center at the University of Texas at Austin, Harvard Law School, the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study at Harvard University, and Northeastern Law School. Directed by Rapoport Center professors and co-directors Karen Engle (Law) and Neville Hoad (English), Harvard Law professor Lucie White, and Northeastern Law Professor Dan Danielsen, the research team included an interdisciplinary group of over thirty law, graduate, and undergraduate students from the various institutions.
Through consideration of construction workers in Austin, Texas and the United Arab Emirates; food workers in Immokalee, Florida and Gainesville, Georgia; and care workers in Chelsea, Massachusetts, the studies explain how and why these hotspots emerged among low-income Black and Brown, generally immigrant, workers who have been deemed "essential" during the pandemic. The studies explore a number of historical political and legal drivers that made these workers particularly vulnerable to the health and economic effects of the pandemic. Interviews with workers, advocates, and journalists ground the research in the lived reality of the pandemic, centering the perspectives of those in the best position to speak to its effects.
The studies examine a variety of terrains: the invisible or undervalued domain of feminized care work, the male-dominated world of construction work carried out in the full light of day, and agriculture work and food processing at the base of US and global supply chains. Yet, across each site, the policies and legal regimes the reports highlight demonstrate that workers are constrained by immigration law, subject to racialized spatial arrangements, and negatively affected by economic policies that favor capital and private sector growth. Multiple structural factors combine to make certain workers at the same time both "essential" and expendable.
This project took an enormous amount of coordination and collaboration among researchers across the United States and beyond. Special thanks to Mishal Khan, postdoctoral fellow at the Rapoport Center, for her stellar work in editing the materials for the project and leadership in designing the website. We are also grateful to Rapoport Center Assistant Director Sarah Eliason for her meticulous logistical coordination throughout the summer, and to Melanie Lindahl and Adam Norwood from UT Law Technology Services for their invaluable contributions in bringing the website to life. Rapoport Center undergraduate intern Jacob Blas was indispensable in creating the graphics, editing content, and adding finesse to each of the web pages for the project. This project also benefited from editing and proofreading support by Rapoport Center Human Rights Scholars Sheela Ranganathan and Noorulanne Jan.

The FDA has approved a new indication for the Star S4 IR Excimer Laser System and iDesign System. With the approval, the iDesign can be used for LASIK patients with hyperopia, with and without astigmatism.
In addition to myopia and mixed astigmatism, physicians can now treat hyperopia over a wide range of pupil sizes in patients who are 18 years and older. Capturing five different measurements in a single capture sequence – wavefront aberrometry, wavefront refraction, corneal topography, keratometry, and pupillometry – the iDesign System can help save time during the procedure.

Amidst the rise of strongmen rulers in the Philippines, Filipino filmmakers are pushing back and using their art to fight disinformation and historical revisionism. Join Filipino film producer Alemberg Ang as he shares his decade-long experience producing independent films. What led him from being a high school literature teacher to a full time indie producer? How he uses his films to advance advocacies such as women and queer empowerment, mental health, and social justice. And how he uses Philippine literature in discussing these issues.
Speaker Bio: School teacher turned film producer, Alemberg ANG's filmmaking is shaped by his passion for socio-civic issues and Philippine arts and literature. Working mostly with rising filmmakers, his films seek to give cultural minorities a voice in world cinema advocating for women and LGBTQ+ empowerment, mental health and social justice. He was invited to the Berlinale Talents, Locarno Open Doors, Tribeca Film Institute Network and UNESCO's Meeting of Independent Producers. His most recent projects include Divine Factory, winner of the Docs-in-Progress award at Cannes Docs, and Some Nights I Feel Like Walking, selected for Cannes Cinefondation Atelier and Talents Tokyo Next Master's grant.

HomeNewsStilwell to be Inducted into Manitoba Sports Hall of Fame
Stilwell to be Inducted into Manitoba Sports Hall of Fame
Six-time Paralympic champion Michelle Stilwell. Supplied by Parksville-Qualicum Constituency Office.
Parksville-Qualicum MLA Michelle Stilwell is being acknowledged for her solid gold career as a Paralympic athlete.
Stilwell, a Winnipeg, Manitoba product, is being inducted into the Manitoba Sports Hall of Fame and her accomplishments include a gold medal in wheelchair basketball and five more in track and field at the Paralympics.
She is a world-record holder in the T52 100 and 200-metre events and Stilwell said this induction is very special.
"It's such an honour to be recognized for sports that I loved, Manitoba is where I grew up and it's where sport was instilled in me," said Stilwell. "It's going to be great to go home and celebrate with friends and family."
Her Paralympic career spanned four Summer Games (Sydney-2000, Beijing-2008, London-2012, and Rio de Janeiro-2016) but, complications to her spinal cord injury forced Stilwell to switch from wheelchair basketball to track and field after the Sydney Games in 2000 and she said she owes her success to hard work.
"You transfer sports, you go into an individual sport and going to track and field and succeeding in Beijing and London and in Rio, knowing that it's the hard work that I put in every single day, the commitment that I made to ensuring my success," said Stilwell. "That relentless pursuit of excellence makes it all worth it at the end of the day."
She won a gold medal with Team Canada in wheelchair basketball back in 2000 and won five golds in track and field from 2008 to 2016.
Stilwell is a nine-time world champion and holds the world record in the 100 and 200-metre wheelchair track and field races and she said she's looking forward to the induction dinner on November 2 and can't wait to see family and friends.
Stilwell is already a member of the BC Sports Hall of Fame and continues to advocate for healthy, active living, and sport.

Awesome MMM listen :)
I loved this story when I first read the book. It had such great characters and captivating plot!
I was anxious about audio version because I did not want it to alter my perception of this title. It was totally unnecessary! The audio version is great and the narrator did a great job differentiating the MCs and giving them even more substance and character. Totally worth both reading and listening to!

Friends-to-Lovers Done Well
This is about three friends who become lovers. The three guys are a joy to hear about, likable and relatable. I enjoyed that they had excellent communication with each other and that it took them some time to realize, admit and then welcome such a relationship. The narration was done well. My only complaint was that it seemed a bit rushed at times. Outside of that, Piers Ryman has a lovely voice and really brings the story to life. His character voices were nicely distinct, even slurring when the MC was drunk. Overall, an enjoyable listen. So if you enjoy M/M/M romances then you should give this one a shot.
I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

I love this story of three friends becoming lovers. Seb, Matt, and Connor are each great guys, and they have supported each other through good times and bad since they were children. When Seb is dumped by his long-term lover, he convinces his friends to go on a camping trip, where he drunkenly kisses both Connor and Matt. Connor has always been straight, and Connor has reasons for not wanting a relationship at all; but those things don't seem to matter when there are suddenly feelings all over the place between the three of them.
It's interesting to watch these men figure things out, and a terrific narrator just adds to the experience. I already loved this sweet and sexy story, and now I know that the audiobook is one I will listen to again and again. Great story!
This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

I enjoyed this one.
This is the second audiobook I've listened to by Piers Ryman. I think he did a really good job with this one. The voices he used are heavily accented but I'm not exactly sure which British accent it is. It's a bit different from what I'm used to but easy and pleasing to listen to once I got used to it.
This is the second book I've read by Colette Davison and I liked it a lot. I Wished for You is about three good friends who unexpectedly discover that they feel more than friendship for each other. Friends-to-lovers is one of my favorite tropes and this one was very good.
Each of the MCs in the story has their own problem but they support each other and work well as a unit once they admit their feelings for each other. They have to deal with the usual coming out as a thruple things but they also have to deal with a separation of several months. Just when everything seems like it will be OK, tragedy strikes. It's a romance so I was pretty certain there would be an HEA and there was.
Overall this was an easy to listen to story, it kept my interest and I enjoyed it.
A complimentary copy of this audiobook was provided to me but my review was voluntary and not influenced by the author and/or narrator.

Good friends-to-lovers story with low angst
I liked this friends-to-lovers story between Seb, Matt, and Connor. I expected a bit more angst, especially since Seb was recently dumped and Matt was straight. I was glad there wasn't a lot of angst. There were things to work out for the guys (such as the rebound, their friendship, Matt's realization he wants them, how to make a relationship between 3 guys work), but they talked about it and moved forward instead of letting things simmer and get frustrating. I listened to this on audiobook, and it was well done and enjoyable.

I received a free copy of this audiobook to listen to and review for Wicked Reads.
Oddly enough, I Wished for You has proven to be a rather difficult audiobook to write a review for. I say it's odd because I thoroughly enjoyed both the story and the narration but am at a loss for words to properly explain why. You see, for me, it's so well-balanced that I'm not sure where to start. Colette Davison has written a story that gives me the perfect amount of romance, self-discovery, angst, drama, baggage, and love, and then went and topped it off with an extra guy. So, I've not only had the pleasure of listening to a story that has hit all my warm and fuzzy romance boxes perfectly, but she made it a polyamorous romance that develops among three guys who have been friends since school. It's practically the perfect romance for me. That's not to say that Seb, Matt, and Connor have it easy as I did say there's the right amount of angst and drama, but it was enough of both to satisfy my appetite yet not so much that I was over it. While I'm trying to avoid specifics because I think readers and listeners should get to encounter the various obstacles and successes the guys encounter along the way on their own, I have to say that I think what really did it for me was that the guys were so considerate of one another's needs – emotional and physical – and did all that they could to allow each other to move at their own speed. There was a concerted effort by each man not to pressure his other partners to move faster than they were ready for and I found that level of consideration to be… see, word loss, because heartwarming isn't the word I'm going for, but I can't think of the perfect word to express how much this touched me.
As for the narration, Piers Ryman was awesome. I believe this is the first audiobook I've listened to in which all the characters are British, and I adored it. Even though I love a British accent, I've been hesitant to listen to an audiobook in which all the characters are British (or maybe I haven't found one yet), but upon listening to the sample and hearing the slur of a drunk, broken-hearted Seb, I had to hear the whole thing. While I'm not naïve (or ignorant) enough to say that all British people sound alike, I'm not educated on the specific accents, so I can't even begin to suggest where the lads are from. What I will say is that despite there being three main male characters and Ryman having to perform them as both sober and intoxicated (as well as other heightened emotions) at various points in the story, not once was I confused as to who was speaking – this includes when I would cue the book back up after several hours to resume listening to it after work. Seb, Matt, and Connor's voices were so distinct from one another that it made it far easier to listen to than I anticipated, which only made it even more enjoyable. I Wished for You is a first for me from both Colette Davison and Piers Ryman, but I certainly hope to be able to read and/or listen to more by both the author and the narrator.

Good vocal performance, not much too the story
For a story with a triad relationship, friends-to-lovers, sexual identity discovery, a 30-something virgin and parental issues, this one was low angst until the 'twist' at the end and was really pretty simple. Seb's epiphany while camping felt a bit rushed but other than that the pacing of the story felt right for the characters and what they are experiencing.
I always like friends-to-lovers stories…the shared history and established love makes for a more solid relationship. The life-long friendship and bond these three share made the switch to lovers effortless. The trust necessary in such a relationship already exists so the exploration of the triad is a bit more natural for them.
I like all the characters equally…not one stands out over the others.
The vocal performance is very good. Each voice is distinct and the emotions he brought to the story made it more enjoyable than just reading the book. I'm glad I listened instead of reading.

Really good Menage
4.25 Stars Overall!
I won't claim to be an expert, I've probably read/listened to a handful or so of menages, but I found this one to be quite original and the triad to be very equilibrated. Seb, Connor and Matt seemed to be in fairly equal footing in their relationship and I thought they had a lot of chemistry. The progression from lifelong friends into lovers was well-done, even if it did drag a bit in some parts. However, all of the guys were very likable and I did believe they had what it takes to make a menage-a-trois work in the long run.
The narration was really good. Piers Ryman did a great job giving each of the characters a very distinct voice. His tone was very pleasant and he delivered a very solid performance, giving the story with that extra bit of emotion where it was needed.
All in all, if you're a fan of MMM, you should definitely give this one a try. It was quite enjoyable!

Sexy trupple
I loved the writing a sexy story. It did lack some activities but it was a good time.
The narrator was good but at times I felt like he was to old sounding for these younger men
Overall it was a good listen

Very nice to listen to a British accent for a British book
Seb was in shock after he was dumped by his long time boyfriend. While very drunk he decided they need to go camping, in the middle of winter. When they all make wishes on falling stars they didn't know that they all wished the same wish in one form or another. Seb drunkenly kisses both of his straight friends. But he wasn't as drunk as Connor and Matt thought he was. The night changes everything for all three men.
Seb wants to get over his ex and isn't sure why all the sudden he is so attracted to his best friends. Matt isn't gay, but the attraction to Connor and Seb is undeniable. Connor has never had a real relationship and is afraid to take a chance, specially with his best friends.
Confusion abounds. They all had to decide what their new normal would be and each man thoughtfully worked through their own particular issues. I liked that it took some time for them to realize that each man was exactly what the others needed. The intricacies of the menage element was well done.

Wishing for more than friendship.
Three good friends who fall in love with each other. Seb, Matt and Connor have been friends for ages. While helping Seb celebrate his birthday, the 3 men make a wish that will eventually make them a throuple. It's a lovely story of friendship, love, loss and finding confidence.
OMG - I loved the narration. Piers Ryman really nailed the characters of each of the men: Seb the exuberant one; Matt, the solid one and Connor, the unsure one. He was great with the humour and the heat between the various couplings. I really enjoyed the narration, definitely a great way to enjoy the story.
I was lucky enough to receive this book on request. The opinions are freely expressed and without bias.

20th Annual ESOP Economic Performance Survey (EPS)
The Employee Ownership Foundation published the results of the 20th Annual ESOP Economic Performance Survey (EPS). The survey found that ESOP companies have seen an increase in share value, productivity, and leadership support. 92% of respondents reported that creating an ESOP was a "good business decision that has helped the company" and 58% of responding companies have created an ESOP education program or ESOP advisory committee since establishing the ESOP:
WASHINGTON, Sept. 14, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Results from the Employee Ownership Foundation's 20th Annual Economic Performance Survey of ESOP (employee stock ownership plan) companies that are members of The ESOP Association show that ESOPs, while not immune to economic developments beyond their control, have seen an upturn over the past year. The survey shows ESOP companies, by significant percentages, continue to have increased share value, better productivity, and overwhelming support among leaders of the companies.
Since the survey's beginnings 20 years ago, and the case in all the years the survey has been conducted, even in 2009, a very large majority, 92.2% of survey respondents, reported that creating employee ownership through an ESOP was "a good business decision that has helped the company." In addition, 72.9% of respondents indicated the ESOP positively affected the overall productivity of the employees. In terms of profitability and revenue, both were up from previous years --- 68.1% of respondents reported profitability increased and 70.2% of respondents noted revenue increased. In terms of stock value, the majority of respondents (79.6%) stated the company's stock value increased as determined by outside independent valuations, 17.1% of the respondents reported a decline in share value, and 3.3% reported no change.
"In looking at past results, it's interesting to see performance numbers in a significant reverse of what was reported last year where so many U.S. corporations suffered financially," said Employee Ownership Foundation President, J. Michael Keeling. "It would be a shame if the Congressional bipartisan support for our modest national policy encouraging employee ownership was not enhanced as Congress looks for a 'common' ground policy encouraging U.S. based jobs."
The survey asked companies to indicate their performance in 2010 relative to 2009:
67.6% indicated a better performance; 21.8% indicated a worse performance; and 10.6% indicated a nearly identical performance to the previous year
70.2% indicated revenue increased; 29.8% indicated revenue decreased
68.1% indicated profitability increased; 31.9% indicated profitability decreased
58.3% of companies indicated they have created an ESOP education program or ESOP advisory committee since establishing the ESOP
The 2011 Economic Performance Survey was distributed to The ESOP Association's over 1,400 members in May 2011. The results are based on 486 responses, a 35% response rate.

S.1232 A bill to modify the ERISA definition of fiduciary to exclude appraisers of ESOPs
The Employee Ownership Blog announced that S.AMDT.467 has now become a separate legislative proposal. S.1232 A bill to modify the definition of fiduciary under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 to exclude appraisers of employee stock ownership plans was introduced on June 20, 2011, by Sen. Kelly Ayotte [R-NH], and is currently co-sponsored by Scott Brown [R-MA], Susan Collins [R-ME], Mary Landrieu [D-LA], and Olympia Snowe [R-ME]. It has been referred to the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions committee:
Because the underlying bill pending on the Senate floor, S. 782 to reauthorize the Public Works and Economic Development Act of 1965, has bogged down and is not likely to be adopted, Senator Kelly Ayotte, and her colleagues Senators Olympia Snowe (R-ME), Susan Collins (R-ME), Scott Brown (R-MA), and Mary Landrieu (D-LA), decided a more effective pathway to stop DOL's proposed anti-ESOP regulation mandating all private ESOP company appraisers be ERISA fiduciaries, was to take S. AMDT 467 word for word and introduce it as a free standing legislative proposal. It is now S. 1232.
ESOPs and Tax Reform
ESOPs Prepare for Tax Reform provides highlights from a recent Employee-owned S Corporations of America (ESCA) discussion on tax reform:


Three years ago, the Gallup organization released the results of a massive study on the link between religion and happiness, surveying 676,000 people.
This past weekend at the International Positive Psychology meeting in Orlando, I met a researcher who recently finished a thesis on just this question. Elisa Hunter has a master's degree in Applied Positive Psychology from the University of Pennsylvania, where she studied with Marty Seligman, considered by many to be the founder of the field.
Here are 5 reasons that Hunter thinks Mormons may have a head start on happiness.
"A lot of research suggests that Mormons are the most pro–social group in America."

Wings of Power WWII Heavy Bombers and Jets is a video game of the flight simulation genre released in 2004 as an add on to enhance Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004.Wings of Power adds vintage historical military aircraft to Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004.Wings of Power also adds 50 missions with some historical missions from real military pilot logs from World War II and adds new special effects to Microsoft's flight simulator series.

The aircraft in Wings of Power: WWII Heavy Bombers and Jets include the B-17 Flying Fortress models F and G, B-29 model a Superfortress, Arado 234B Blitz, He-162 Salamander, Focke-Wulf Ta-183 Huckebein, Avro Lancaster Mk III heavy bomber, B-24 models D and J Liberator and PB4Y-2 Privateer.

This simulator add on is strictly with Pilot or Copilot controls only.
So there is no combat in this add on unlike Shockwave's earlier Firepower add on.
However the developers added some sophisticated controls and actual pilots procedures used to start and fly these aircraft in the simulation. So they simulate how the aircraft is actually flown to a very good degree. The simulation add on comes with a good size 158 page manual detailing the controls and operable 2D panels which can be brought up on the computers screen to manually operate different control panel boxes used in the actual aircraft.
However, not all the actual pilot and copilot controls of the real military aircraft
are here in the simulation most notably the B-17's induction system. Unfortunately this is due to a limitation of Microsoft's Flight Simulator 2004. Even so, this add on would be useful for learning some of the operation and procedures of the actual World War II military aircraft. The simulation is designed so that the aircraft operate and fly to pretty decent flight dynamics as the real aircraft.
So it can be a challenge to land a heavy World War II bomber in the simulation without crashing and there can be random failures of aircraft systems so a simulation pilot can learn what to do in certain circumstances. Shockwave Productions recommends that individuals who have purchased this obtain a copy of the pilots manual (flight manuals are just one source in the external links) for the aircraft they choose to fly in this add on. It is easy to see why because real World War II military bomber pilots with their copilots went through checklists before takeoff with flight engineers reading off the instruments and had years of very extensive training. However, if the simulation player so chooses he doesn't have to go through these complicated procedures and controls featured. Instead the full realism can be turned off in Microsoft's flight simulator's menu. Then again the player will be missing out on a great learning experience.

Various 3rd party sites carry numerous repaints of these bombers with different paint schemes and nose art for free download created by fans of the simulation add on.
An individual using this simulation would greatly benefit by obtaining a device known as Track IR. See Battle of Britain II: Wings of Victory for the external links and video demonstration. Note the video demonstration is highly compressed as the simulation was actually on a 1080i high definition monitor. The gallery screenshots below are compressed too and the actual in game graphics are a lot better (you can check the Goldenwings external links to see decent screenshots of FS2004 plus it is a good free add on).

How a Sticky Note Can Trick People Into Doing Your Bidding
By Melissa Dahl
There are many unpleasant tactics people use when trying to get others to comply with a request: manipulating, bullying, pleading, lying, maybe even a little crying. But there is one surprisingly persuasive tool that is likely sitting on your desk right now, likely never before used in this sneaky manner: the sticky note.
In a recent write-up at Harvard Business Review, psychologist Kevin Hogan reviews some inventive research conducted by Randy Garner at Sam Houston State University. In it, Garner found that when he asked his colleagues via interoffice mail to help him out by completing a survey — a boring, time-consuming task — they were much more likely to actually do it if he attached a handwritten Post-It to the request.
Hogan writes of Garner's research:
In one experiment, he sent surveys to three separate groups of 50 professors (150 professors total). Three groups received three different requests, as follows:
Group 1 received a survey with a sticky note attached asking for the return of the completed survey.
Group 2 received a survey with the same handwritten message on the cover letter instead of an attached sticky note.
Group 3 received a survey with a cover letter, but no handwritten message.
Group 3: 36% of the professors returned the survey.
There are a couple of reasons why this might've happened: First, the sticky note is noticeable — it draws your attention because it doesn't quite belong, which makes it harder to overlook. But the real power of the little note, Hogan theorizes, was likely the handwritten message, which makes the request more personal than an anonymous and boring form that needs filling out. Hogan writes, "Ultimately, the sticky note represents one person communicating with another important person — almost as if it is a favor or special request, which makes the recipient feel important."
