Granite Belt loses another producer after grim harvest
Robert Quirk looks out over the property he's worked for more than 40 years as he prepares to hand the property over. Ella Archibald-Binge

AFTER 41 years working daylight to dark on his Amiens property, second-generation Granite Belt vegetable farmer Robert Quirk has had a gutful of the industry.
"I have no choice - either I sell or the banks will," he said.
"It's the end of the dream."
This weekend Mr Quirk will sell off the remnants of his machinery shed after making the sobering decision to sell the Quirk Brothers' cauliflower, cabbage and lettuce producing property in February.

Come the end of June, Taylor Family Produce will take over the 100ha property.
"I held on 12 months too long," Mr Quirk said.
"I never had any intentions of selling - that just wasn't in the plan.
"I've got a son (Brad) and a grandson (Andrew) I was hoping would take it over, but they'll look after themselves now."
Mr Quirk maintains that his story "isn't a sob story", but the all-too-familiar tale of a farmer fighting a losing battle against the rising cost of production, wages and the weather.
"It's the same old story - blame it on the chain stores. We either need decent prices from them or hope some other poor bloke gets cut out with hail," he said.
"Things were good when we took over but then we had a year of drought - the prices haven't been any good since.
"We just got that far behind, and then last year was a disaster because of the hail and this year was the worst growing season I've seen in 40 years."
The clincher of Mr Quirk's story is that his sale follows that of another iconic farming family's property.
The sale earlier this year leaves just a handful of family operations on the Granite Belt.
This is a concept almost unimaginable less than one generation ago.
"The small family farms that don't need to hire people will be alright; same for the big guys who can absorb the costs, but the middle-size operations like us won't survive," Mr Quirk said.
"From about 2000 onwards, there was a shift - you had to get bigger to survive."
And expand the Quirks did, to a point.
After taking over the farm from his dad Jim in 1999, Mr Quirk doubled the size and production of the property.
Jim established the property in 1967 with his brother William, doing away with the 48ha of existing fruit tree orchard, deciding instead to focus on ground crops in 1967.
Mr Quirk said he would miss the job. "I don't know if it was ever fun, but you do it because you like the job, that's the only reason really. There's no money in it - it was my hobby," he said.
Even trialling wombok and cabbage for the first time this year wasn't enough to change the Quirks' fortunes.
"We can't keep growing more and more, and continuing to get less and less for it," Mr Quirk said.
Another change in the industry which contributed to the problem was the sensitivity of modern vegetable varieties, he said.
"It grows to a time slot. You've got different varieties for summer, autumn, winter and spring but, when the weather is out and it's hot - when it's not supposed to be like it was in October, it all just went to seed. It was stuffed."
During the harvest season, the Quirk family has about 15 people on staff, 10 of whom would be backpackers and five locals.
The family even grew cauliflower through the winter months to ensure the local workers had employment in the off-season.
"Employees now just don't seem to give a stuff about anything - to a lot of them they're only doing a job.
"It doesn't seem to worry them if they don't show up or break something," he said.
The vast majority of the Quirks' produce is sold through the Brisbane market - that's another issue, according to Mr Quirk.
"If you sell direct to Woolworths or Coles, they take a 3% fee, but the Brisbane markets take 15% so that's an automatic 12% advantage the guys big enough to go direct to the chains have over us," he said.
"We used to have a six to eight-week window at the beginning of the season where we were the only ones on the market, so prices were good. It set us up for the rest of the season, but we haven't had that for years now.
"I don't know how everyone else is going but we're struggling like buggery."
With just 1.2ha of cauliflowers left to harvest, Mr Quirk is hoping to be finished by mid-June, just in time to hand over to the Taylors.
"They run a good operation, they'll probably look after it better than I did," Mr Quirk said.
As for his family's plans at the end of June, Mr Quirk is leaving that up to his wife Sue.
"We might go for a holiday first up - it's been a bloody long time since we've had a decent one of those," he said.
Though looking forward to a holiday, Mrs Quirk said she was sad to see the place go.
"I can remember taking Brad out in a playpen while I picked lettuce - the boys really put a lot of work into this place over the years," she said.

What is Gastroparesis and How Can I Control It?
Gastroparesis, or a partially paralyzed stomach, is commonly found in people with diabetes who have experienced elevated blood sugars for a number of years. In advanced stages, it can cause symptoms such as early satiety and bloating, nausea and vomiting. In the early stages, it is only discernable by its erratic effects upon blood sugar due to unpredictable stomach emptying.
Castroparesis is very difficult to treat, but it can be rendered less severe by a number of measures used simultaneously.
Since you appear to have a relatively advanced condition, severe dietary intervention is warranted. This incluAes a very low-carbohydrate diet with total elimination of high-fiber vegetables such as salads; broccoli, etc. Protein foods should be limited to fish, eggs, cheese and ground meats. Evenrbetter would be a liquid or semi-liquid diet such as baby food and drinks made from egg-white protein.
There are a number of other approaches to speeding stomach emptying that should be used in addition to the dietary changes. These include drinking two glasses of water with each meal, taking certain digestive enzymes while eating, doing special exercises and chewing gum after meals, etc. Although there are some medications that can improve stomach emptying, none of them are effective for advanced cases like yours. An especially effective enzyme is betaine hydrochloride with pepsin. It should be taken as three capsules while eating, never on an empty stomach. It should not be used by people who have ulcers or gastritis.
More details can be found in my book "Diabetes Solution," which is available at most bookstores and at www.amazon.com. A chapter is devoted to the treatment of gastroparesis. It also covers the proper use of insulin forpeople with gastroparesis. One of the most important tips is to never use lispro insulin (commonly used in insulin pumps) to cover meals. It works faster than the stomach can empty food.

Senate summons Service Chiefs over herdsmen attacks
The Senate on Thursday summoned the service chiefs to appear before it and explain why persistent attacks on innocent Nigerians by Fulani herdsmen have continued unchecked.
The upper chamber which suspected that the dastardly acts were being perpetrated by fleeing members of Boko Haram terrorist group, asked the service chiefs to appear and brief it on measures they are putting in place to forestall the spread of terrorist activities all over the country.
The National Assembly also constituted an ad-hoc committee chaired by the Senate Leader, Ali Ndume, to organise a public hearing on the rampaging attacks on innocent Nigerians by Fulani herdsmen and come up with recommendations capable of tackling the crisis.
The committee was asked to commence its assignment next week.
The resolution was the aftermath of a motion moved by Senator Chukwuka Utazi (Enugu North) during which he lamented the killing of scores of residents of Ukpabi Nimbo community in Uzo-Uwani Local Government Area of Enugu State last Monday.
The Senate which also observed a minute silence in honour of those killed in Nimbo community, asked the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) and other relevant agencies to urgently dispatch relief materials to the affected community as well as neighbouring Nkpologu, Uvuru, Ugbene-Ajima and Adani communities to alleviate the plights of persons displaced by the attack.
It also called on security agencies of the nation to improve its intelligence gathering and be proactive instead of merely reacting to threats to internal security especially in cases where there is credible intelligence to act upon with a view to safeguarding lives and property.
The senators also asked security agencies to enforce laws on arms' possession against unathorised persons just as they appealed to the Nigerian Police to expedite action on the establishment of a rapid response police unit around the communities where there have been attacks.
Utazi told his colleagues that the herdsmen entered into the community through Enugu State border with Kogi State shooting, hacking, matcheting, slitting the throats of hapless residents and razing down buildings.
He said contrary to reports that 20 people were killed in the incident, 38 persons were actually killed while no fewer than 100 others sustained varying degrees of injury.
The senator added that domestic animals were slaughtered while efforts were still being made to recover corpses of victims and as well account for those missing.
Utazi noted that only three months ago, Abbi, a neighbouring community to Nimbo was attacked by Fulani herdsmen whom he said killed scores of people and houses and barns set ablaze. He noted that Uzo-Uwani Local Government Area now faces extinction as a result of protracted attacks on communities in the council area.
Utazi lamented that whereas intelligence meant to avert the attack was passed on to security agencies ahead of the act, they failed to act on it adding that residents of neighbouring communities now live in fear.
In his contribution, Senator Ben Murray-Bruce (Bayelsa East) described the herdsmen as the worst group of terrorists who have been maiming, killing, stealing and raping women in the country.
According to Murray-Bruce, it was gruesome acts like this which precipitated the 1967-1970 civil war, pointing out that the situation had started resulting in reprisal attacks which he said would end up in a guerilla warfare, the battle he said could not be won by anyone.
He challenged the federal government to disarm cattle rearers, noting that the herdsmen were not licensed to carry arms. He also warned that if the situation was not quickly nipped in the bud, religious and ethnic colouration would be read into it, a situation he said would result in civil war.
While the Chief Whip, Senator Sola Adeyeye, said the killers should no longer be termed herdsmen but terrorists, Minority Leader, Godswill Akpabio, echoed Murray-Bruce that the last civil war started this way, observing that Nigeria would not survive a second civil war.
While disagreeing with Murray-Bruce that reprisals have started, Akpabio said with Nigeria's population of 170 million, the entire African continent would be unable to contain Nigerians whom he said would be scattered across Africa if another civil war breaks out.
In his remark, Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, who presided over the session, emphasised the need for the Senate to act fast before frustrated Nigerians are forced to take laws into their hands.
"We must show some sensitivity on matters concerning our people. There are too many men and women in Nigeria today who are frustrated by economic realities and they will make themselves available for any possible mishap that this will give rise to. I believe that the earlier we nip this in the bud, the better for all of us.
"We want a very peaceful country and we will need to work towards that. And as leaders, we must be held responsible if there is breakdown of law and order because the primary purpose of government is the protection of lives and properties of the ordinary people. We must be able to come up with immediate approach to this problem, mid-term and long-term solutions so that people will see that we are interested in their welfare," he said.

STATE COLLEGE — The Penn State University Outing Club, a 169-member club focused on hiking, running and backpacking, will no longer be going out because the university believes it is too risky.
A federal judge has ruled that Summer Study Programs Inc. must pay Penn State University nearly $320,000 for providing students with "room, board and computer access" during a summer program in 2016, according to a recent decision filed in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania.

Somehow I've become an Ivanka Trump Twitter follower. She's Donald's daughter. At any rate, from time to time she sends out something interesting, and today she delivered a doozy: A video story about an architect who has managed to fit 24 rooms into a 334 square-foot apartment. Check it out, it's pretty cool.

Do you plan on buying a gift card for a loved one this holiday season? If so, you can help prevent homelessness on Cape Cod by purchasing them through the Dennis-Yarmouth Ecumenical Council for the Prevention of Homelessness (DYECH).
Every year, DYECH sells gift cards to over 100 stores, restaurants and movie theaters – Best Buy, Amazon, Target, Starbucks and more – that raise funds for HAC's homelessness prevention efforts.
To purchase gift cards this holiday season visit www.shopwithscrip.com. The enrollment code to support DYECH and HAC is 561B698219989.
Cards can be picked up at Yarmouth Appliance Clinic at 61 White's Path in Yarmouth one week after you place your order. Make sure to place your order early so you have the cards in time for the holidays!
If you have questions about the program, please email DYECH at dyech@comcast.net.
Since 1993 keeping Cape Codders in their homes and off the streets has been as simple as purchasing a gift card. Well, make that thousands of gift cards.
A program started more than two decades ago by the Dennis-Yarmouth Ecumenical Council for the Prevention of Homelessness (DYECH) and later adopted by the Barnstable Interfaith Council (BIC) has been a resounding success.
Known as Cape Cod Caring Cards, the program is simple: DYECH and BIC purchase gift cards in bulk from stores such as Stop & Shop, Shaw's, Roche Brothers and Lambert's. In return the two nonprofits receive five percent on every purchase.
The gift cards are then sold at face value to consumers. The five percent then goes directly to HAC to oversee Project Prevention which provides financial assistance to help residents on Cape Cod struggling with their bills stay in their homes.
Last year over $80,000 was raised by Cape Cod Caring Cards that went towards Project Prevention. And more than $1 million has been raised during its 21 years of existence. None of this would be possible without the churches, businesses and organizations that sell these gift cards directly to residents.
Thanks also go out to those who participate in the caring card program because it allows people to remain in their homes on Cape Cod.

That is why she decided to donate a $100 Stop and Shop gift card she won in a drawing at the Housing Assistance Corporation table at the Vivapalooza expo to the NOAH Shelter to be used to help feed people in need.
Emerald Physician's Vivapalooza took place on Sunday, June 2, filling Barnstable High School with vendors promoting community resources for healthy living.
At HAC's booth, staff sold Cape Cod Caring Cards, formerly known as food certs. The cards have their full cash value and can be used at many stores on the Cape. For each gift card purchased, 5 percent of the money spent benefits HAC's Project Prevention, which provides financial assistance to prevent Cape Codders from becoming homeless. Dennis Yarmouth Ecumenical Council and Barnstable Interfaith Council sponsor the cards.
When Ms. Curley found out she won the gift card drawing, she was surprised. "I don't usually win anything," she said.
Ms. Curley said she regularly buys Cape Cod Caring Cards from the Barnstable Interfaith Council at village fairs and other events.
HAC put Ms. Curley's donation to use at the NOAH Shelter where it was used to stock up the pantry with items unavailable from the food banks.


It's a popular headline in all the newspapers. It usually starts popping up after the American Thanksgiving. It hits the local cable TV news programs at least once or twice during the month of December. Google it and you will have plenty to read while you are sipping your morning coffee.
Whether it is from a church nativity scene or from a front yard, Baby Jesus seems to go missing every Christmas. It has become such a problem that some are encasing their plastic nativity scenes in Plexiglas. Others are equipping their high-end infant with a GPS. And it's no wonder, considering that some churches pay anywhere from one thousand to 1.5 million dollars for their ceramic Baby Jesus!
Some may find these headlines shocking, and others just find them ridiculous, but they cause me to stop and ponder.
We tend to notice when Baby Jesus goes missing in the months of November and December. We try our hardest to keep Him in Christmas. Yet, most of us never realize that for the most part, He is also missing for the other ten months of the year. He is missing from our churches, schools, homes and hearts.
In our defense, it is easy to get caught up in day-to-day life and forget about Jesus. We do not intentionally ignore Him. We do not plan to leave Him out, but life happens. Work, carpool, ministry, church, missions, dentist appointments, sick parents, strained marriages… all fight for the few hours in our day.
When Paul wrote this advice to a young, frightened, in over-his-head pastor in Ephesus named Timothy, the old, weather-beaten apostle knew from first hand experience that life would get in the way for him. He knew trials and temptations could veer Timothy off course. Paul knew discouragement, loneliness, political correctness, and inexperience would all "run amuck" in Timothy's ministry, so he gave the best advice he knew.
Paul uses the present grammatical tense of the word "remember." This means it is a command to be obeyed constantly. In other words, Paul is commanding Timothy to deliberately – as an act of his will and a habit for life – keep the thought of Jesus and the price He paid for him ever before his thoughts.
Throughout his years of ministry, Paul had learned that fixing one's thoughts on Jesus was not something one does automatically. It takes effort and a conscientious choice to make Jesus a part of our everyday life. However, Paul is telling Timothy that if he chooses to continually fix his thoughts on Jesus – no matter what is going on around him – then the truth of the Gospel will transform, energize and encourage him!
Is this the theme of my life? Is it the theme of yours?
In North America, we suffer from what I like to call the "Bobble-Head Jesus Theology," because we have created our own version of Jesus. Our bobble-head Jesus continually nods his head in agreement with everything we do and say. He never disagrees with us.
We pull Him out on occasion for weddings, funerals and holidays.
Some carry Him around like a talisman, hoping to get their prayers answered, but then discard Him when they do not get what they want.
Some of us pull our bobble-head Jesus out every week before we head off to church, offer him our wooden worship and then we hide him away with the closing prayer until next Sunday.
Our bobble-head Jesus makes us look respectable yet he never tells us what to do! WE control HIM. We can put Him back in the box if He starts making demands that cause us to feel…uncomfortable. He does not have access to our finances, homes, our even our churches.
Then, we wonder why our lives are so full of fear, insecurity and little power!
Jesus did for us what no one else could or will do. He gave His life for us as a perfect sacrifice. He deserves more than a once a year celebration. He deserves more than being treated like a prized token or a novelty. He deserves our very lives, lived every day, poured out for HIM.
We do not want "full." What we want is security and comfort. We want the fake Jesus we have created, not the one Scripture gives us.
We like our plastic, bobble-head Jesus who never takes a stand against the culture of the day. We like the Jesus who worships the way we do, dresses the way we do and doesn't ask us to do impossible things!
When Jesus Himself is our life, we can say with Apostle Paul that, "it is no longer I who lives, but Christ in me." Then, when we are intentionally "remembering," the real Jesus will be revealed through our lives.
People for whom the Christian life is exciting are those people who have "remembered" Jesus. They believe with all their hearts that Jesus Christ truly died and has truly risen from the dead, and that He is alive today to transform the lives of those around them.
They are living lives that shout the gospel to the world!
The world longs to see the genuine Christ. The world needs to see the genuine Christ.
Are you showing them a bobble-head Jesus or are you showing them the real thing?
Another great Musing, Steph. Well said.
Thanks, Shondi. May the babe in the manger be King in our hearts. Blessings on you, Girl. May 2013 be filled with God's wonder as His plan for you unfolds. I know He has some great things in-store for you!
That is so true of our culture Steph. I am enjoying reading your musings….the topics are so interesting! Thanks for great work done!

A wedding day should capture beautiful moments between the bride and the groom, without excluding friends and family. Couples look forward to an album full of photos perfectly taken on their big day. However, shooting on a wedding day is not easy. It takes skills and professionalism.
Preparation is important before thinking of anything else. A photographer needs to prepare well because things do happen on that day. Make sure there is a backup plan in case things go wrong. Visit the wedding venue in advance to be familiar with the route. Carry backup batteries and find a team that can come to your rescue in case yours does not deliver.
An extra memory card is also important because pictures are usually taken throughout the day and thus might get full before the day ends. It is advisable to be part of the rehearsal team to get lighting ideas and the best locations with great angles for photography.
Photography depends highly on good lighting, making it a key ingredient for photography. The more the lighting, especially if it is an indoor event, the better. Add as much lighting as possible if it is an outdoor wedding.
A photographer should create a romantic atmosphere with sources of lighting to include lanterns and candles. If the options are not available, opt for natural light. Most photographers let brides sit close to a window for a more natural look during her makeup session.
Capture the couple before cutting the cake, ensuring they move near the cake. Cakes are important during weddings and the couple would want to have a memory of it. Therefore, ensure you capture it at all angles before it is cut and during the cake cutting session.
The first shot should be the moment they take the knife. Shoot the process; capture funny moments and also when they are feeding the cake to each other.
It takes a couple of days, months or even years to get a final thought. Therefore, the following are some of the details you should not fail to capture. Bouquet; the background should complement the flowers and after the shot, take pictures of the bride and her bridesmaids with that bouquet.
Bring out intricate details of both the dress and shoes. Choose a nice location to hang the dress and flatter it when taking a shot. And finally, the wedding rings; this is the point where a photographer's creativity is showcased.
Pose the rings together in a way that brings out their beauty. Flowers and branches are perfect for an outdoor shooting. If possible, add cufflinks and other accessories beside the rings.
Contact Daz Mack Wedding Photography to capture all your special moments during your upcoming wedding.

Innovation Polishing the CV
Polishing the CV
Talking of grand claims we couldn't help noticing a press release about a new recruit at Lux Research who "served as CEO of the wholly-owned subsidiary of QinetiQ Group plc, a leading international defense and security technology company with more than $1 billion in annual revenues."
What the press release fails to mention is that Joe was only CEO of Qinetiq Nanomaterials for 6 months, and that QNL which was founded some three and a half years ago is a very small subsidiary of a "company with more than $1 billion in annual revenues."
Still, its no worse than what we see on most CVs and the experience of running a small subsidiary while the parent company has a billion dollar IPO must be invaluable, if not unique.
NanotechUnmitigated Hype


UCLA scientists have developed a potential new treatment for melanoma that has shown promising early clinical results. In a two-year UCLA-led study, nearly two-thirds of people with advanced melanoma responded positively to a treatment that combines the immunotherapy drug keytruda (pembrolizumab) with a herpes virus called T-VEC (talimogene laherpareovec).
Researchers found that the treatment's side effects were manageable, and comparable to side effects for people who took either keytruda or T-VEC as a standalone treatment.
T-VEC is a genetically modified version of the herpes simplex virus that causes cold sores but is safe to use. T-VEC has already been approved for the treatment of melanoma and it works both by directly killing cancer cells and using a protein that attracts immune cells into the cancers.
Keytruda has become a standard-of-care treatment for advanced melanoma, and it is also being used to treat non-small-cell-lung cancer, cancers of the head, neck, kidney and bladder, and Hodgkin's disease. It works by taking the "brakes" off of the body's immune system, enabling it to attack cancer.
According to the study authors people whose melanoma does not respond to keytruda often lack a type of T cell called CD8+ in their tumors; the lack of CD8+ cells seems to prevent immunotherapy drugs from working. But the researchers believe those people might benefit from a combination therapy, because T-VEC attracts CD8+ immune cells to the tumors and keytruda allows them to attack the cancer cells.
The phase 1 clinical trial evaluated 21 people with advanced melanoma. Researchers injected patients' melanoma tumors with T-VEC for six weeks and then gave them infusions of keytruda. Sixty-two percent of the patients had a partial or complete response, meaning that their tumors either shrank or were no longer detectable.
The combination therapy could provide an alternative treatment for people with melanoma whose tumors don't respond to other therapies. It also being tested in people with head, neck and colon cancers.

comedy Donald Trump emmy awards pt And the award for worst cameo goes to... sean spicer sean spicer emmy awards self-deprecation Trump administration white house spokesperson
Worst Dressed At The Emmys: The Podium Wearing Sean Spicer
Robyn Pennacchia
Last night, at the beginning of the Emmy Awards, Stephen Colbert gave a great opening song and monologue -- all about how shit is so terrible in 2017 that we're all watching a ton of TV in order to escape from it. Which is true! It was done really well, and -- smartly -- included an aside from Chance the Rapper reminding people they could record their shows and still "show up at the protest."
But then, a dark pall fell across the stage and, indeed, the entire audience, as former White House spokesperson Sean "Holocaust Centers" Spicer zoomed out on stage on a mobile podium like the one Melissa McCarthy had used to satirize him on Saturday Night Live. Spicer had come to make a real good joke about that time he lied for Donald Trump about the size of his inauguration crowds, by announcing that "This will be the largest audience to witness an Emmys, PERIOD, both in person and around the world."
"That really soothes my fragile ego," Colbert quipped, "I can understand why you'd want one of these around."
Spicer's cameo comes at the end of Colbert's monologue:
Get it? Because it is super hilarious how he is a lying liar who earned a lot of money this year lying to the American people for literally no reason outside of the preservation of his boss's ginormous ego?
It was supposed to be some kind of self-effacing comedy. See! Sean Spicer is also in on all the #jokes about Sean Spicer! He's got a sense of humor about himself and how terrible he is! But no one was laughing with him, because no one wants to normalize Sean Spicer. No one wants to see Sean Spicer getting gigs at Harvard or hobnobbing with celebrities at the Emmys. Just as no one wanted to see Donald Trump on Saturday Night Live, and Jimmy Fallon playfully tousling his hair made us all want to vomit in our mouths. Taking the edge off of these people, trying to humanize them, is dangerous. Too much is at stake here now.
Self-deprecation is a way of making the worst parts of yourself more acceptable to others, by saying "Hey, I'm aware of this too!" It takes the edge off of your flaws and makes them more acceptable to others. That's the whole point. But the joke doesn't work when it's a flaw people have it in their hearts to forgive you for. Sean Spicer making a joke out of his job lying for Donald Trump and helping to push a dangerous agenda is fundamentally not the same as like, me making fun of myself for being terrible at cutting my own bangs and continually attempting to anyway. Charles Manson doesn't get to make self-deprecating jokes, and neither does Sean Spicer.
That's why people are so uncomfortable with it, that's why no one is laughing, because what he did is not forgivable. Frankly, Colbert and the writing staff of the Emmys should have been aware of that. It was bad and they should feel bad.
Much like the bang trims at the Salon I go to when I am not being an idiot, Wonkette is free but tips are appreciated!

Brian May Rips 'Bohemian Rhapsody' Timeline Critics: 'Complete Bulls––'
Dave Lifton
Ethan Miller / Steven Ferdman, Getty Images
Brian May says ending Bohemian Rhapsody with a re-creation of Queen's triumphant 1985 performance at Live Aid was always the plan, despite an early report suggesting that an alternative ending was in the works.
"I think there's a natural culmination there," the guitarist told Louder Sound. "And that has pretty much always been the case, from the earliest scripts. We felt that was the pinnacle – despite what some people have said in the press, who know fuck-all about it. Somebody who shall be nameless said, "'Oh, they're going to portray Freddie [Mercury] dying in the middle of the movie, and then the rest of it is gonna be about life without Freddie.' Well, complete bullshit. This is all about Freddie, and I think Live Aid is a good point to leave it. Who knows?" May added, laughing. "There might be a sequel."
The nameless person could be Sacha Baron Cohen, who was originally linked with the starring role but walked away in 2013. Two years ago, he told Howard Stern that the idea for the film, as described to him by a member of the band, was that Mercury's 1991 death took place midway through the movie, and then "you see how the band carries on from strength-to-strength. I said, 'Listen, not one person is going to see a movie where the lead character dies from AIDS and then you see the band carry on.'"
Although May didn't finger Cohen as the source, in the same interview, he said the decision to work with the Borat star "was a near-disaster. I think we realized just in time what a disaster that was going to be. And it actually wasn't rocket science to figure that out. But yeah, that's one of the rocks that we nearly hit."

Annie Buller (9 décembre 1895 - 19 janvier 1973), également connue sous le nom d'Annie Buller-Guralnick, est une organisatrice syndicale et cofondatrice du Parti communiste du Canada (PCC), de même que directrice de nombreuses publications du PCC.

Contexte historique
Annie S. Buller nait le 9 décembre 1895 à Montréal, dans une famille juive d'origine ukrainienne déjà composée de trois frères. Son père est charpentier. Elle émigre à Montréal avec ses parents au début des années 1900. Elle s'engage politiquement en politique socialiste pendant la Première Guerre mondiale, et suit les traces de son amie Becky Buhay (1896 – 1953) dans l'étude de la pensée marxiste à la Rand School of Social Science à New York. En mai 1920, Algernon Lee, directeur de l'éducation, préside la remise des diplômes de la deuxième plus grande classe jamais vue à Rand, dont les étudiants sont : John J. Bardsley, William D. Bavelaar, Annie S. Buller, Louis Cohan, Harry A. Durlauf, Clara Friedman, Rebecca Goldberg, William Greenspoon, Isabella E. Hall, Ammon A. Hennsey (Ammon Hennacy), Hedwig Holmes, Annie Kronhardt, Anna P. Lee, Victoria Levinson, Elsie Lindenberg, Selma Melms, Hyman Neback, Bertha Ruvinsky, Celia Samorodin, Mae Schiff, Esther T. Shemitz, Nathan S. Spivak, Esther Silverman, Sophia Ruderman, et Clara Walters. Pendant son séjour à Rand, Buller aide à recueillir des fonds à New York pour les Canadiens participant à la grève générale de Winnipeg.

Carrière
Dès l'âge de 13 ans, Buller travaille dans une usine de tabac, 12 heures par jour, 6 jours par semaine. À l'âge de 16 ans, elle devient commis-vendeuse dans un « magasin à prix unique ». Puis, à l'âge de 17 ans, elle est embauchée au grand magasin Almy's, où elle devient la responsable des achats d'articles en verre et en porcelaine. En compagnie de Buhay, elle s'implique auprès d'un groupe de jeunes socialistes.

Montreal Labour College
En 1920, à son retour à Montréal de la Rand School à New York, Buller, Buhay, leur collègue Bella Gauld (1878–1961) et d'autres fondent le Montreal Labour College. Elles modélisent cette école sur la Rand School et la Plebs League en Angleterre. Le comité de démarrage est composé de : Buller, Becky Buhay, Mike Buhay (le frère de Becky), Bella Gauld, une certaine Madame Frankel, Mike Garber du Parti communiste révolutionnaire du Canada (CPR), Nathan Mendelssohn, George Lloyd, Dick Kerrigan, Bill Long et Sylvia Robertson. Parmi les professeurs invités figurait Scott Nearing.

Organisation syndicale

Tout au long des années 1920, Buller travaille comme organisatrice syndicale et voyage beaucoup à travers le Canada, afin d'organiser les industries du vêtement et soutenir les mineurs et les métallurgistes. En 1931, elle mène une grève générale pour de meilleurs salaires et de meilleures conditions de travail pour les couturières à Toronto. Au milieu des années 1920, elle devient administratrice du journal The Worker.

À la suite de la Grève des mineurs du charbon d'Estevan de 1931, Buller se prononce en faveur de la création du Syndicat des mineurs du Canada. Le 23 février 1932, elle fait l'objet d'une enquête préliminaire pour émeute, pour lesquelles elle est condamnée. Le 10 mars 1933, débute un nouveau procès; elle est une fois de plus condamnée et emprisonnée pendant un an sans amende à la prison de North Battleford. À la fin des années 1930, elle dirige le journal du Parti le Mid-West Clarion de Winnipeg, jusqu'à ce qu'il soit interdit en vertu de la Loi sur les mesures de guerre (Règlements concernant la défense du Canada). En 1940, lors des mesures de répression contre les membres du Parti communiste, Buller se fait arrêter avec Louis Guberman et Jock McNeil, et elle est emprisonnée à Portage La Prairie (1940-1942). Son mari, Harry Guralnick, est également interné à cette époque.

À sa sortie de prison, elle se joint au Comité communiste ouvrier du Dominion pour la guerre totale, au Manitoba. Elle est élue au Comité national lors de sa participation au premier congrès national du Parti ouvrier progressiste.

Organisation politique

Résultant de ses efforts au Montreal Labour College, Buller devient cofondatrice du Parti communiste du Canada à Montréal. En août 1931, le gouvernement du Canada déclare le Parti illégal et condamne huit de ses dirigeants à une peine totale de 37 ans (soit une moyenne de 4 à 5 ans chacun) de prison.

Buller se présente à plusieurs reprises pour un emploi à la fonction publique. En 1932, elle se présente à un poste au conseil municipal de Toronto en tant que candidate du Front uni des travailleurs. En 1952, elle se présentera comme candidate du Parti ouvrier progressiste à St. Paul's et de nouveau en 1956 (à l'âge de 61 ans) à Spadina Ward.

Après la Seconde Guerre mondiale, Buller continue à s'impliquer dans les activités du PCC, telles que les campagnes de réduction des prix organisées par la Commission nationale des femmes et l'Association des femmes au foyer.

Elle voyage en URSS en compagnie de Guralnick en 1955, et reste active au sein du PCC jusqu'à sa retraite de ses responsabilités de publication, à la fin des années 1950.

Résultats électoraux

Vie privée et mort

Buller épouse Harry Guralnick (décédé en 1972), un activiste de la Ligue des travailleurs juifs; ils ont un fils.

Elle rencontre et fait connaissance avec son « homologue » américaine, Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, qui soutient ses efforts dans son écriture et sa prise de parole en public. Buller écrit pour les causes soutenues par Flynn, y compris Sacco et Vanzetti.

Buller était également amie avec Jeanne Corbin, née en France (vers 1909 – mai 1944).

En 1955, Buller et Guralnick se rendent en Union soviétique. Elle visitera l'usine d'automobiles de Staline à Moscou.

Buller décède le 19 janvier 1973. C'est William Kashtan, le secrétaire général du PCC, qui prendra la parole lors de ses funérailles.

Postérité

John Weir, membre du PCC, a dit de Buller qu'elle était la Rosa Luxemburg et l'Elizabeth Gurley Flynn du Canada.

Buller, son amie Becky Buhay et la précurseur Florence Custance sont quelques-unes des rares femmes du début du PCC : Buller et Buhay « allaient symboliser le leadership féminin au sein du PCC pendant les trente années suivantes ».

Scottish Independence: \'No\' and \'Yes\' Campaigns Neck and Neck as Vote Looms
By Ian Silvera
September 17, 2014 16:52 BST
High turnout expected as 97% of the adult population in Scotland have registered to vote in the referendum Reuters
The Scottish independence referendum battle is neck and neck as polling day looms, according to a survey from Panelbase.
The poll, which questioned 1,004 people between 15 and 17 September, found 52% of respondents said they intend to vote "No" and 48% of people said they would vote "Yes" at the referendum on 18 September.
The research also revealed the majority of young people (16 to 34-year-olds) and 35 to 54-year-olds intend to vote "Yes" at the polls (53% "Yes" vs 47% "No" and 55% "Yes" vs 45% "No", respectively).
However, "No" voters outnumbered "Yes" voters when it came to the 55+ age group (38% "Yes" vs 62% "No").
The poll found the majority of female respondents intend to vote "No" but most men will vote "Yes" (42% "Yes" vs 58% "No" and 54% "Yes" vs 46% "No", respectively).

Scottish Independence: Economists Worry About Political Schism on No Vote Devo Max Pledges
The figures come after former Labour Prime Minister Gordon Brown made an impassioned plea for the people of Scotland to vote "No" and warned about the "risks" of an independent Scotland.
"Let us tell those people who have still got doubts and are wavering, people who were thinking of voting yes yesterday but could be persuaded today – let us tell them about the real risks," the MP for Kirkcaldy and Cowdenbeath said.
"This is not the fear of the unknown, this is now the risks of the known.
"An economic minefield where problems could implode at any time, an economic trapdoor down which we go from which we might never escape."
But Scotland's First Minister Alex Salmond slammed the "No" campaign's "scare stories".
"I have no doubt people in Scotland will look past the increasingly desperate and absurd scare stories being generated daily from Downing Street," he said.
"So in these last days of the greatest campaign Scotland has ever seen, I want to ask you to take a step back from the arguments of politicians and the blizzard of statistics.
"For every expert on one side, there is an expert on the other.
"For every scare tactic, there is a message of hope, opportunity and possibility.
"The opportunity for our parliament to gain real job creating powers, the ability to protect our treasured National Health Service and the building of a renewed relationship of respect and equality with our friends and neighbours in the rest of these islands."
Almost all (97%) of the adult population in Scotland have registered to vote in the referendum.

On her CNN program on Monday, Campbell Brown forwarded one of the Left's talking points about the tea parties by stating that "it does appear that we are seeing a rise in right wing extremism recently." However, her guest, historian Robert Churchill of the University of Hartford, downplayed her claim and claimed that groups like the Southern Poverty Law Center were "exaggerating" the threat.
Brown brought on Churchill at the bottom half of the 8 pm Eastern hour. Midway through the interview, she made her "right wing extremism" claim and cited "a number of studies that have looked at this. The Department of Homeland Security came out with a study last year saying that, perhaps, it's the economy, or possibly the President's race." The anchor then asked, "What do you see as driving recruitment right now, beyond just sort of the generic more- or not generic, but more general libertarian view?"
CHURCHILL: Well, I think we have to really be careful to distinguish what's going on on the right end of American politics right now. It is absolutely correct that there's a lot of activity in what I'd call the Christian patriot public sphere, that is to sort of say, that part of the political spectrum that kind of casts out beyond the mainstream. There's lots of political organizing going on. There's lots of groups that are emerging or old groups that are getting stronger again.
One of the new groups is... [the] Oath Keepers. One of the older groups that, apparently, is picking up steam again is the John Birch Society, which has been around for a long time, but apparently is enjoying a resurgence. All of this is political organizing and I don't see it as being particularly threatening.
Brown reacted to Churchill's answer with some surprise: "You don't? That was going to be my question. Are there examples- I mean, there aren't real examples but we- you know, this is also the anniversary of the- you know, bombing in Oklahoma City. So that has a lot of people thinking about this....Does that worry you?"
CHURCHILL: Well, I mean, I guess there are things to be concerned about, but I think we have to pay attention to the right things. We have had a tendency in the last 10 years to be really very concerned about insurgent violence, and sometimes what we forget is that state-sponsored violence can be much more devastating. It seems to me that we do have some degree of revival in the militia movement, which emerged in the 1990s, and then really went dormant during the Bush administration. We do see some increase in the numbers of militia groups, but nothing close to what was happening in the 1990s. So, there again, I think that although there are- you know, groups like the Southern Poverty Law Center that are sort of ringing the bells of warning, I think they're exaggerating the actual degree of what's happening out there.
This is quite a statement from a CNN guest, as the network regularly turns to the Southern Poverty Law Center to forward their claims about the supposed revival of "right wing extremism." CNN.com cited the SPLC less than a month ago on March 30 after the arrest of the members of the Hutaree militia in Michigan. In November 2009, correspondent Jim Acosta rehashed a study from the liberal organization during a report about militias. Earlier that year, on August 20, anchor Rick Sanchez brought on the group's Mark Potok, and the two agreed that there was a "disconcerting" infiltration of militia groups into the tea party protests.
BROWN: It is striking...[at] one rally in Virginia, demonstrators were carrying guns openly, which is legal there, but very much an in- your-face kind of demonstration- not the first time either that we have seen this kind of thing.
CHURCHILL: Well, and that's right- I mean, and I think there's a couple of things going on there as well. It seems to me that for some folks in the gun rights movement, they're really trying to bring back an earlier era in American politics in which guns were actually a normative part of the practice of politics. If you look at this country's history in the late 18th century and the early 19th century, a lot of politics revolved around militia musters where guns were present. Guns were a part of political festivity....and I think they're trying to bring that back.


Most stains are a mixture of water .They work by penetrating the surface and reacting chemically with the hydrated lime (calcium hydroxide) in the concrete. The acid in the stain lightly etches the surface, allowing the metallic salts to penetrate more easily. Once the stain reacts, it becomes a permanent part of the concrete and won't fade, chip off, or peel away. Like stains for wood, acid-based stains are translucent and the color they produce will vary depending on the color and condition of the substrate they are applied to. Each concrete slab will accept the stain in varying degrees of intensity, creating natural color variations that bring character and distinction to each project. You'll mostly find them in a limited array of subtle earth tones, such as tans, browns, terra cottas, and soft blue-greens.

Even though tens of directly imaged companions have been discovered in the past decades, the number of directly confirmed multiplanet systems is still small. Dynamical analysis of these systems imposes important constraints on formation mechanisms of these wide-orbit companions. As part of the Young Suns Exoplanet Survey we report the detection of a second planetary-mass companion around the 17 Myr-old, solar-type star TYC 8998-760-1 that is located in the Lower Centaurus Crux subgroup of the Scorpius–Centaurus association. The companion has a projected physical separation of 320 au and several individual photometric measurements from 1.1 to 3.8 microns constrain a companion mass of 6 ± 1 M_(Jup), which is equivalent to a mass ratio of q = 0.57 ± 0.10% with respect to the primary. With the previously detected 14 ± 3 M_(Jup) companion that is orbiting the primary at 160 au, TYC 8998-760-1 is the first directly imaged multiplanet system that is detected around a young, solar analog. We show that circular orbits are stable, but that mildly eccentric orbits for either/both components (e > 0.1) are chaotic on gigayear timescales, implying in situ formation or a very specific ejection by an unseen third companion. Due to the wide separations of the companions TYC 8998-760-1 is an excellent system for spectroscopic and photometric follow-up with space-based observatories such as the James Webb Space Telescope.
