Date Posted: 01:30:16 10/13/13 Sun Yes or no, vote Big Issue .From The EditorPaul McNamee Sep 23, 2013 Share on printShare on emailShare on stumbleuponShare on twitter. ..."Two big films are being released that tell of very different Scotlands - and may influence the referendum" A change is gonna come. Oh yes it is. You may have heard something of this in recent days. On September 18 next year a referendum will be held that will influence all our futures. And though the question will only be asked of those living in Scotland, and though the question is curiously open-ended (Do you agree that Scotland should be an independent country?), the yes/no response will sound out across Britain. At present, ‘No’ looks likely. Though ‘Yes’ people insist it’s all to play for. Neither side has got into the nitty-gritty yet of bothering too much with things like facts and information about how lives will be changed. There have, though, been merry japes about border crossings. Increasingly, the two camps will deliver a number of platitudinous remarks that lack substance, hoping they are winning the battle for their sideIncreasingly, the two camps will deliver a number of platitudinous remarks that lack substance, hoping they are winning the battle for their side. However, something out of their control may well have more of an influence. In the coming weeks, two big films will be released that tell of very different Scotlands. One, Irvine Welsh’s Filth, looks full-on, funny, venal, challenging in many ways, taking a particular view of Scotland to the world. The other is Sunshine on Leith – uplifting, heartwarming and something our critic last week called the best film of Scotland since Gregory’s Girl. While neither is real, they both cleverly render how Scottish people are – funny, gallus, smart, single-minded. The question that arises is whether the Scottish people are happy to have this identity continue alone or in opposition. And for the rest of Britain we should think seriously about whether this part of the wider British personality is one we’d be happy to lose. Identity and sense of place are incredibly complex elements that are difficult to deconstruct – and even more difficult to reassemble. Whichever way the wind blows, there will still be establishment pomposity that The Big Issue will prick for our readers and vendors. We will remain a voice for the disenfranchised, the dispossessed and those infuriated by the mainstream. In fact, vote BIG ISSUE. Vote early, vote often!

It also oversees compliance with its operating rules, promotes standards of corporate governance among Australia's listed companies and helps to educate retail investors. Australia's capital markets Financial development - Australia was ranked 5th out of 57 of the world's leading financial systems and capital markets by the World Economic Forum; Equity market - the 8th largest in the world (based on free-float market capitalisation) and the 2nd largest in Asia-Pacific, with A$1.2 trillion market capitalisation and average daily secondary trading of over A$5 billion a day; Bond market - 3rd largest debt market in the Asia Pacific; Derivatives market - largest fixed income derivatives in the Asia-Pacific region; Foreign exchange market - the Australian foreign exchange market is the 7th largest in the world in terms of global turnover, while the Australian dollar is the 5th most traded currency and the AUD/USD the 4th most traded currency pair; Funds management - Due in large part to its compulsory superannuation system, Australia has the largest pool of funds under management in the Asia-Pacific region, and the 4th largest in the world. Regulation The Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) has responsibility for the supervision of real-time trading on Australia's domestic licensed financial markets and the supervision of the conduct by participants (including the relationship between participants and their clients) on those markets. ASIC also supervises ASX's own compliance as a public company with ASX Listing Rules. ASX Compliance is an ASX subsidiary company that is responsible for monitoring and enforcing ASX-listed companies' compliance with the ASX operating rules. The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) has oversight of the ASX's clearing and settlement facilities for financial system stability. Products Products and services available for trading on ASX include shares, futures, exchange traded options, warrants, contracts for difference, exchange-traded funds, real estate investment trusts, listed investment companies and interest rate securities.[4] The biggest stocks traded on the ASX, in terms of market capitalisation, include BHP Billiton, Commonwealth Bank of Australia, Westpac, Telstra, Rio Tinto, National Australia Bank and Australia and New Zealand Banking Group. The major market index is the S&P/ASX 200, an index made up of the top 200 shares in the ASX. This supplanted the previously significant All Ordinaries index, which still runs parallel to the S&P ASX 200. Both are commonly quoted together. Other indices for the bigger stocks are the S&P/ASX 100 and S&P/ASX 50. History[edit] The Sydney Stock Exchange building in 1959 Sydney Exchange Square Sydney Exchange Square entranceThe origins of the ASX date back to the mid-1800s when six separate exchanges were established in Australia's state capital cities of Melbourne, Victoria, (1861), Sydney, New South Wales (1871), Hobart, Tasmania (1882), Brisbane, Queensland (1884), Adelaide, South Australia (1887) and Perth, Western Australia (1889).[5] A further exchange in Launceston, Tasmania, merged into the Hobart exchange. In November 1903 the first interstate conference was held to coincide with the Melbourne Cup. The exchanges then met on an informal basis until 1937 when the Australian Associated Stock Exchanges (AASE) was established, with representatives from each exchange. Over time the AASE established uniform listing rules, broker rules, and commission rates. Trading was conducted by a call system, where an exchange employee called the names of each company and brokers bid or offered on each. In the 1960s this changed to a post system. Exchange employees called "chalkies" wrote bids and offers in chalk on blackboards continuously, and recorded transactions made.[6] The ASX (Australian Stock Exchange Limited) was formed in 1987 by legislation of the Australian Parliament which enabled the amalgamation of six independent stock exchanges that formerly operated in the state capital cities. After demutualisation the ASX was the first exchange in the world to have its shares quoted on its own market. The ASX was listed on 14 October 1998.[7] On 7 July 2006 the Australian Stock Exchange merged with SFE Corporation, holding company for the Sydney Futures Exchange. Timeline of significant events[edit]1861: Ten years after the official advent of the Gold Rush, Australia's first stock exchange was formed in Melbourne. In the 1850s Victoria was Australia's gold mining centre, its population increasing from 80,000 in 1851 to 540,000 in 1861. 1871: Thirty years after it lit the first gas street light in Sydney, AGL took its place in history again, becoming the second company to list on the Sydney Stock Exchange. 1885: Two years after the Broken Hill Mining Company (private company) was established by a syndicate of seven men from the Mt Gipps sheep station, the company was incorporated to become The Broken Hill Proprietary Company Limited ('BHP'). In 1885, Broken Hill Proprietary Company (BHP) listed on ASX. 1937: The Australian Associated Stock Exchanges (AASE) was established in 1937. Since 1903 the state stock exchanges had met on an informal basis, but in 1936 Sydney took the lead in formalising the association. Initially this involved the Exchanges in Adelaide, Brisbane, Hobart and Sydney. Melbourne and Perth joined soon after. Through the AASE the Exchanges gradually brought in common listing requirements for companies and uniform brokerage and other rules for stockbroking firms. They also set the ground rules for commissions and the flotation of government and semi-government loan raisings. 1938: Publication of the first share price index. 1939: Sydney Stock Exchange closed for the first time due to the declaration of the World War. 1960: Sydney Futures Exchange began trading as Sydney Greasy Wool Futures Exchange (SGWFE). Its original goal was to provide Australian wool traders with hedging facilities in their own country. SGWFE offered a single contract of greasy wool that by the end of the year had traded 19,042 lots. 1969–1970: The Poseidon bubble (a mining boom triggered by a nickel discovery in Western Australia) caused Australian mining shares to soar and then crash, prompting regulatory recommendations that ultimately led to Australia's national companies and securities legislation. 1976: The Australian Options Market was established, trading call options. 1980: The separate Melbourne and Sydney stock exchange indices were replaced by Australian Stock Exchange indices. 1984: Brokers' commission rates were deregulated. Commissions have gradually fallen ever since, with rates today as low as 0.12% or 0.05% from discount internet-based brokers. 1984: Sydney Stock Exchange closed due to heavy rain and flooding on Friday 9 November 1984 with 70 millimetres of rain falling in one half-hour. All trading on the floor of the Sydney Exchange was suspended throughout Friday. Damage tolled $2 million and repairs took more than six months, with new carpet laid and cables and computers replaced. Stockbrokers who had taken advantage of joint access were able to trade on the Stock Exchange of Melbourne. And, with the Sydney trading floor closed by floodwaters, the Melbourne Exchange enjoyed its busiest trading day for the year. After that episode a back-up site was established out of the Sydney CBD. 1987: The Australian Stock Exchange Limited (ASX) was formed on 1 April 1987, through incorporation under legislation of the Australian Parliament. The formation of this national stock exchange involved the amalgamation of the six independent stock exchanges that had operated in the states' capital cities. Launch of the Stock Exchange Automated Trading System (SEATS). It was a far cry from the original system which dated back over 100 years. During that time there had been three different forms of trading on the Australian stock exchanges. The earliest was the auction-based call system, which saw a stock exchange employee (the Caller) call the name of each listed security in turn while Members bid, offered, sold or bought the stock at each call. This system proved inadequate to handle the increased volume of trading during the mining booms. It was replaced by the 'post' system in the early 1960s, which involved stocks being quoted on 'posts' or 'boards'. 'Chalkies' were employed by the Stock Exchange and it was their function to record in chalk the bids and offers of the operators (employees of stockbrokers) and the sales made. This system stayed in place until 1987. 1990: A warrants market was established. 1993: Fixed-interest securities were added (see Interest rate market below). Also in 1993, the FAST system of accelerated settlement was established, and the following year the CHESS system (see Settlement below) was introduced, superseding FAST. 1994: The Sydney Futures Exchange announced trading in futures over individual ASX stocks. The ASX responded with the Low Exercise Price Option or LEPO (see below). The SFE went to court,[8][9] claiming that LEPOs were futures and therefore that the ASX could not offer them. However, the court held they were options and so LEPOs were introduced in 1995. 1995: Stamp duty on share transactions was halved from 0.3% to 0.15%. The ASX had agreed with the Queensland State Government to locate staff in Brisbane in exchange for the stamp duty reduction there, and the other states followed suit so as not to lose brokerage business to Queensland. In 2000 stamp duty was abolished in all states as part of the introduction of the GST. 1996: The exchange members (brokers etc.) voted to demutualise. The exchange was incorporated as ASX Limited and in 1998 the company was listed on the ASX itself, with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission enforcing the listing rules for ASX Limited. 1997: Electronic trading commences as the option market moves from floor to screen.[10] A phased transition to the electronic CLICK system for derivatives began. 1998: ASX demutualised and become a listed company. It was the first exchange in the world to demutualise and list on its own market, a trend that has been imitated by several other exchanges over the years. The Australian Mutual Provident Society began in 1849 as an organisation offering life insurance. Now known as AMP it became a publicly listed company on the ASX in 1998. 2000: In October, ASX acquires a 15% stake in the trading and order management software company IRESS (formerly BridgeDFS Ltd).[11] 2001: Stamp duty on marketable securities was abolished. 2006: The ASX announced a merger with the Sydney Futures Exchange, the primary derivatives exchange in Australia. 2010: The ASX announced a merger with Singapore Exchange. 2011: Treasurer Wayne Swan finds the proposed merger with the Singapore Stock Exchange to not be in the best interests of Australia and refuses to grant permission for the merger. Trading systems[edit]ASX Group has two trading platforms - ASX Trade,[12] which facilitates the trading of ASX equity securities and ASX Trade24 for derivative securities trading. All ASX equity securities are traded on screen on ASX Trade. ASX Trade is a NASDAQ OMX ultra-low latency trading platform based on NASDAQ OMX's Genium INET system, which is used by many exchanges around the world. It is one of the fastest and most functional multi-asset trading platforms in the world, delivering latency down to ~250 microseconds. ASX Trade24 is ASX global trading platform for derivatives. It is globally distributed with network access points (gateways) located in Chicago, New York, London, Hong Kong, Singapore, Sydney and Melbourne. It also allows for true 24-hour trading, and simultaneously maintains two active trading days which enables products to be opened for trading in the new trading day in one time zone while products are still trading under the previous day. Opening times ASX has a pre-market session from 7:00am to 10:00am AEST and a normal trading session from 10:00am to 4:00pm AEST. The market opens alphabetically in single-price auctions, phased over the first ten minutes, with a small random time built in to prevent exact prediction of the first trades. There is also a single-price auction between 4:10pm and 4:12pm to set the daily closing prices. Current holidays: Good Friday, Easter Monday, Anzac day (25 April), Queen's birthday (June) and Christmas Day (25 December) and New Year's Day (1 January). Settlement[edit]Investors hold shares in one of two forms. Both operate as uncertificated holdings (rather than through the issue of physical share certificates): Issuer-sponsored. The company's share register administers the investor's holding and issues the investor with a security-holder reference number (SRN) which may be quoted when selling. Clearing House Electronic Sub-register System (CHESS). The investor's controlling participant (normally a broker) sponsors the client into CHESS. The investor is given a holder identification number (HIN) and monthly statements are sent to the investor from the CHESS system when there is a movement in their holding that month. Holdings may be moved from issuer-sponsored to CHESS or between different brokers by electronic message initiated by the controlling participant. Short selling[edit]Main article: Short (finance) Short selling of shares is permitted on the ASX, but only among designated stocks and with certain conditions: ASX Trading Participants (brokers) must report all daily gross short sales to ASX. The report will aggregate the gross short sales as reported by each Trading participant at an individual stock level. ASX publishes aggregate gross short sales to ASX participants and the general public.[13] Many brokers do not offer short selling to small private investors. LEPOs can serve as an equivalent, while contracts for difference (CFDs) offered by third-party providers are another alternative. In September 2008, ASIC suspended nearly all forms of short selling due to concerns about market stability in the ongoing global financial crisis.[14][15] The ban on covered short selling was lifted in May 2009.[16] Further to this - the biggest change in this space for ASX in the last 15 years was the introduction of Settlement Rule 10.11.12. If you cannot provide stocks when settlement is due, ASX forces your clearer to go into the market and cover themselves. ASTC Settlement Rule 10.11.12 requires that if a Failed Settlement Shortfall exists on the second Business Day after the day on which the Rescheduled Batch Instruction was originally scheduled for settlement (that is, generally on T+5), the delivering Settlement Participant must either: close out the Failed Settlement Shortfall on the next Business Day by purchasing the number of Financial Products of the relevant class equal to the Failed Settlement Shortfall; or acquire under a securities lending arrangement the number of Financial Products of the relevant class equal to the Failed Settlement Shortfall and deliver those Financial Products in Batch Settlement no more than two Business Days later.[17] Options[edit]Options on leading shares are traded on the ASX, with standardised sets of strike prices and expiry dates. Liquidity is provided by market makers who are required to provide quotes. Each market maker is assigned two or more stocks. A stock can have more than one market maker, and they compete with one another. A market maker may choose one or both of: Make a market continuously, on a set of 18 options. Make a market in response to a quote request, in any option up to 9 months out. In both cases there is a minimum quantity (5 or 10 contracts depending on the shares) and a maximum spread permitted. Due to the higher risks in options, brokers must check clients' suitability before allowing them to trade options. Clients may both take (i.e. buy) and write (i.e. sell) options. For written positions, the client must put up margin. Interest rate market[edit]The ASX interest rate market is the set of corporate bonds, floating rate notes, and bond-like preference shares listed on the exchange. These securities are traded and settled in the same way as ordinary shares, but the ASX provides information such as their maturity, effective interest rate, etc., to aid comparison.[18] Futures[edit]The Sydney Futures Exchange (SFE) was the 10th largest derivatives exchange in the world, providing derivatives in interest rates, equities, currencies and commodities. The SFE is now part of ASX and its most active products are: SPI 200 Futures – Futures contracts on an index representing the largest 200 stocks on the Australian Stock Exchange by market capitalisation. AU 90-day Bank Accepted Bill Futures – Australia's equivalent of T-Bill futures. 3-Year Bond Futures – Futures contracts on Australian 3-year bonds. 10-Year Bond Futures – Futures contracts on Australian 10-year bonds. The ASX trades futures over the ASX 50, ASX 200 and ASX property indexes, and over grain, electricity and wool. Options over grain futures are also traded. Market indices[edit]The ASX maintains stock indexes concerning stocks traded on the exchange in conjunction with Standard & Poor's. There is a hierarchy of index groups called the S&P/ASX 20, S&P/ASX 50, S&P/ASX 100, S&P/ASX 200 and S&P/ASX 300, notionally containing the 20, 50, 100, 200 and 300 largest companies listed on the exchange, subject to some qualifications. ASX Sharemarket Game[edit]ASX Sharemarket Games give members of the public and secondary school students the chance to learn about investing in the sharemarket using real market prices. Participants receive a hypothetical $50,000 to buy and sell shares in 150 companies and track the progress of their investments over the duration of the game.[19] Merger talks with SGX[edit]ASX was (25 October 2010) in merger talks with Singapore Exchange (SGX). The merger would have created a bourse with a market value of US$14 billion.[20] The merger was blocked by the Australian Federal Treasurer on 8 April 2011, on advice from the Foreign Investment Review Board.[21] |

Date Posted: 18:21:23 10/11/13 Fri John Bird (entrepreneur)From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Bird at the launch of a Big Society initiative at 10 Downing Street John Bird MBE (born 30 January 1946) is a British social entrepreneur. He is best known as the founder of The Big Issue, a magazine that is edited by professional journalists and sold by street vendors affected by homelessness. Contents [hide] 1 Early life 2 The Big Issue and work with the homeless 3 Political aspirations 4 References 5 External links Early life[edit]John Bird was born in Notting Hill, London to a poor London Irish family. He became homeless at the age of five, resided in an orphanage between the ages of seven and ten, and went into prison in his teenage years. He slept rough on the streets of London and returned to prison in his late twenties.[1] The Big Issue and work with the homeless[edit]In September 1991 he launched The Big Issue with Gordon Roddick and in November 1995 he launched The Big Issue Foundation to further aid the homeless.[2] He is currently on the Board of Directors for the company and the Board of Trustees for the foundation.[3] The Big Issue magazine started as a local London venture, but expanded with specific editions and services to other British cities, and then to other countries. In 2001, with Big Issue Chairman Nigel Kershaw, John helped found The Big Issue Invest, a provider of finance for businesses with the aim of creating social change. Initially just dealing in loan finance, in 2009 The Big Issue Invest launched a social investment fund. In June 1995 Bird was awarded the MBE for ‘services to homeless people’, and in 2006 he received the Beacon Fellowship Prize for his energy and originality in raising awareness of homelessness and his support of homeless communities worldwide.[4] In 2006 he set up the Wedge Card, an Internet-based loyalty card system designed to support small business and local enterprise, with the slogan "Think local. Shop local". Political aspirations[edit]In March 2007 he announced his intention to stand for election to the post of Mayor of London as an independent candidate.[5] In May 2007 he unveiled his election manifesto for the 2008 poll.[6] In October 2007 he announced that he had decided not to stand for election, and was instead going to launch a movement that was "going to try and do what the CND did over the bomb, but over social injustice." [7] In December 2007 he agreed with Westminster Council who declared that they were opposed to the presence of soup kitchens on the streets of London. He said: We have to stop supplying people with the means of being emergency refugees on the streets... no one has ever got off the streets simply because they've been fed a good bowl of soup.[8] In 2010 he helped to launch the writers website abctales.com In the early 21st century, Bird became a Social Enterprise Ambassador. Social enterprises use a business to address a social or environmental need. The Social Enterprise Ambassadors programme is led by the Social Enterprise Coalition and is supported by the Office of the Third Sector, part of the UK government's Cabinet Office. Bird revealed in 2010 "My guilty secret is that I’m really a working class Tory. There, I’ve said it. I’d love to be a liberal because they’re the nice people but it’s really hard work – I can’t swallow their gullibility and I think their ideas are stupid. I’d love to be someone who wanders around in a kind of Utopian paradise seeing only the good in everybody but I just can’t. I support capital punishment for a start. I know this will destroy my reputation among middle-class liberals but I’m 64 now and I should be able to breathe a bit. Wearing the corsetry of liberalism means that every now and then you have to take it off."[9] References[edit]Jump up ^ John Bird.

Big Issue vendor Billie Bickley. Photograph: Graham Turner Billie Bickley is at her pitch in Covent Garden, grinning at her dog Solo. It is 9.30 on a bright, fresh morning, and she has already sold two-dozen Big Issues to a steady flow of regular customers. Banter streams from her mouth, interspersed by commands that control Solo's ball-chasing acrobatics. "Is that coffee for me?" she calls to a woman hurrying out through the doors of Pret A Manger. "Billie's a legend round here," says the woman, Melissa Bacon, 33, a market researcher who works nearby. "She's always got a smile." She hands Billie her coffee. "We're all very proud of her." You could say that Bickley sells outside Pret A Manger, but locals know it's the other way round. "Billie attracts customers to Pret," one of the waitresses says. "She knows everyone by name. While they're there talking to Billie, they decide to get a coffee." At one point, Pret offered Bickley a job – but there was a problem. "I've got 96 convictions," she says, looking up sheepishly. "I didn't know until they looked at my record. I thought maybe I had 30 or something." She warms her hands on her coffee. "I'm 36, and for 17 years I was addicted to heroin. Nearly half my life. The Big Issue's the only one that's trusted me with a job." It is 18 years this week since Gordon Roddick, who with his wife Anita ran the Body Shop, came up with the idea for a UK street paper. In 1991, at the height of the homelessness crisis, Roddick had seen a street paper on sale in New York, where he was looking at premises for the Body Shop. "Near Grand Central Station, I passed a tall, black homeless guy who was selling a newspaper," Roddick remembers. "I was immediately interested in the interaction with his customers. He was laughing and joking. He wasn't invisible like the homeless people on the streets of London." The only thing that troubled Roddick was that homeless people were being given that paper for free. A pioneer of social business, he thought selling it to the homeless instead might end what he saw as a disempowering and dehumanising cycle of charity. He came back inspired, and asked the Body Shop Foundation to look into the idea of a street paper. "They came back saying 'it's too dangerous – there's an insurance issue, the police won't let you, the local authorities won't let you . . .' I thought to hell with it." But instead of abandoning the idea, Roddick called up his old friend John Bird, an ex-rough sleeper, ex-offender and poet he had met when they drank in the same Edinburgh pub 20 years earlier. "John was the ideal person," Roddick says. "He'd worked in the printing industry. He'd been on the streets. He was very bright. He certainly wouldn't listen to what anyone would tell him he couldn't do." Roddick remembers with a laugh how his late wife and John used to fight. "I liked it," he says, "it gave me some peace. If a notion was important enough, John and Anita were very similar in their entire disregard for other people as they pushed it through. I never had that quality and I admired it." Today, despite the recession, circulation is holding steady with a weekly sale of 147,000 copies, offering legitimate self-employment to 2,500 people in the UK. It is not a charity handout; vendors buy the magazine for 75p and sell it for £1.50. "I hate hearing that people have given money and not taken the magazine," Roddick says. "I always give the vendor exactly £1.50, or ask for the change. I suspect John does exactly the same." Bickley was on the streets four years before the Big Issue existed, escaping a violent home at 14 for London. "I got the first train from Coventry, got off at King's Cross and I've been here ever since," she says. Within her first week of living on the street, she was befriended by a homeless couple who sold heroin. "The first time I took it was 17 June 1987, my 15th birthday. I kept on taking it for 17 years." By the time Bickley was 21, she was also addicted to crack cocaine. "I remember walking through King's Cross one day," she says. "Crack had just come out, and the dealers were hiding the drugs in their mouths. Right next to me, this guy's head gets blown off in the street by another dealer. There was blood all over my face – but I didn't care, I just wanted the crack that had been blown out of his mouth. I was picking up all the rocks off the street out of the blood and guts." An odd Bird Sitting in a cafe in King's Cross, the centre of Bickley's world for 17 years, Bird says he initially refused the job Roddick offered him. "I said no because I wasn't the slightest bit interested in charity." He only agreed to look into it because Roddick offered him £100 a day, "and I needed to put food on the table for my family. "Gordon is a maverick giver," Bird goes on. "Who else would have given a 45-year-old social failure a chance?" But the more Bird spoke to homeless people and to the police, the more he became convinced the Big Issue could work. "I suddenly realised this wasn't charity and it could actually do something. I wrote a report in six weeks." He laughs. "Most of it was bollocks." In the early days, Bird employed friends, family and some people he had met in a cafe. "Most of them were people who knew nothing about papers." The first issue he describes as like "a bad student magazine", and the first person he met selling the fledgling Big Issue was rolling drunk. "It was awful," Bird, now 54, says. "He said I was exploiting the homeless. I said, 'Well, why are you doing it then'? And he said, 'I'm doing it for my baby in Liverpool.' I said, 'Well, it sounds like you need me and I need you then.'" Bird shakes his head. "There's never been any love lost between me and the homeless. People knew I was ex-homeless, an ex-offender. They'd say, 'You've gone to the other side.' They abused me because they had to pay for the paper. It was invigorating." That first Christmas, the Big Issue held a party for its vendors in the crypt of St-Martin-in-the-Fields. "My brother brought in 400 cans of Special Brew," Bird remembers. "It was the unbelievably maddest office Christmas party I've ever been to. It took seven hours to get everyone out of the crypt. St Martin's said we were an embarrassment to anybody who wanted to help the homeless." The magazine was soon losing £25,000 a month of Body Shop Foundation money. "Gordon put a gun to my head," Bird recalls. "He said, you've got three months to break even. I cut jobs, put the price to the vendor up, moved it from monthly to fortnightly and told everyone to work twice as hard. We went from losing £25,000 a month to £1,000 profit." Today there is also the Big Issue Foundation, which gives support and advice to vendors; versions of the magazine are sold from Australia to Japan, South Africa to Namibia. And its founders are still pushing the original model forward with Big Issue Invest – a new social enterprise investment fund that finances social businesses. At its head office in Vauxhall, south London, an editorial meeting is discussing the magazine's sought-after interview with Leona Lewis, ethical food, and the shocking death of a vendor in Regent Street, impaled on glass from a shop window. The story has been reported nationally in lurid detail, but reporters here are determined to investigate the story properly. "Our whole mission is about the vendor," says the editor, Charles Howgego. "We have to see the world through the eyes of someone who's got nowhere to sleep at night. Everybody on the editorial team knows vendors personally, and everyone knows what they go through. That's a very strong motivation." A few years ago, the Guardian ran a story by a former Big Issue deputy editor, Adam MacQueen, suggesting Bird might now be its "biggest problem" – but 38-year-old Howgego says he remains "the soul of the organisation". Below the editorial floor is the distribution office, where vendors collect magazines and drop in for advice and support. It often receives complaints about illegal vendors who aren't employed by the organisation, but are begging with a single copy. Genuine vendors sign up to a code of conduct, and are easily recognisable with a badge clearly on display. "People sometimes complain that they've seen a person selling who isn't homeless," says Paul Joseph, the distribution manager. "But we don't sack vulnerable people just because they've become housed. Exiting homelessness can be a long, drawn-out process." 'I haven't been in jail since I started selling the paper' In Covent Garden, Billie Bickley introduces one of her star customers, Nick Paris, 49, who works nearby in investment sales and has just done the Big Issue's London to Paris bike ride. "He made £5k, the top fundraiser," she says. "He's invested in me, he says." Bickley started selling the Big Issue a decade ago. "I haven't been in jail since," she says. "Not once. After 96 convictions, it's been my life saver." Eighteen years on, though, Bird wishes the Big Issue was no longer necessary. "There has been an improvement," he says. "This government chose to take responsibility for street homelessness. But the problem now is a different one – institutionalised homelessness. "Now we need to dismantle homelessness. You can't just take a really fucked-up person and say, here's a sink and phone and a place to watch TV, and a couple of hours counselling a week. It's like trying to do an organ transplant with a knife and fork. You need more than knives, forks, walls and windows to sort out the damage done to people on the streets." Yesterday, Bickley was one of four vendors chosen to visit Downing Street to mark the Big Issue's 18th birthday. She sold a copy to Gordon Brown within minutes. This summer, she has also been to the Big Chill to sell the festival programme on site. "I don't know if I'd go again," she says, packing up for the day. "The toilets were filthy." Now that she's living in a proper home with her partner Aden, a cleaner at the hostel she had been staying in, Bickley says she has become a cleanliness freak, constantly cleaning and tidying. She grins lopsidedly at her dog. "House proud, you could say." Sign up for the Society briefing email Stay on top of the latest policy announcements, legislation and keep ahead of current thinking.

Non-verbal, a computer chat is like sending text messages back and forth. Either characters are transmitted after each key is pressed, or all the text is sent when the user presses Enter. The term chat became so pervasive in the computing world that a two-way audio communication is sometimes called a "voice chat," and video calling is often called "video chat."

Texting (SMS) Although all three of these services deal with sending and receiving text, chat and IM sessions are on the computer, while texting is done on cellphones. Chat sessions can be initiated by users merely browsing a Web site to interact with a sales or service rep at that very moment, whereas instant messaging (IM) requires installing an IM program, opening an account and sending invitations to recipients. See instant messaging and SMS. Chatting and Texting Since chat is an English word, if someone refers to "chatting and texting" on a cellphone, it means real chatting (voice calling) and sending text messages.

Date Posted: 01:15:13 10/04/13 Fri Hamlet (1948 film)From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Laurence Olivier's Hamlet) Jump to: navigation, search Hamlet theatrical poster Directed by Laurence Olivier Produced by Laurence Olivier Screenplay by Laurence Olivier Based on Hamlet by William Shakespeare Starring Laurence Olivier Basil Sydney Eileen Herlie Jean Simmons Stanley Holloway Music by William Walton Cinematography Desmond Dickinson Editing by Helga Cranston Studio Two Cities Distributed by Rank Film Distributors Ltd. Release date(s) 4 May 1948 (1948-05-04) Running time 155 minutes Country United Kingdom Language English Budget £600,000[1] Hamlet is a 1948 British film adaptation of William Shakespeare's play Hamlet, adapted and directed by and starring Sir Laurence Olivier. Hamlet was Olivier's second film as director, and also the second of the three Shakespeare films that he directed (the 1936 As You Like It had starred Olivier, but had been directed by Paul Czinner). Hamlet was the first British film to win the Academy Award for Best Picture.[2] It is also the first sound film of the play in English. A 1935 sound film adaptation, Khoon Ka Khoon, had been made in India and filmed in the Urdu language.[3] Olivier's Hamlet is the Shakespeare film that has received the most prestigious accolades, winning the Academy Awards for Best Picture and Best Actor and the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival. However, it proved controversial among Shakespearean purists, who felt that Olivier had made too many alterations and excisions to the four-hour play by cutting nearly two hours' worth of content. Milton Shulman wrote in The Evening Standard "To some it will be one of the greatest films ever made, to others a deep disappointment. Laurence Olivier leaves no doubt that he is one of our greatest living actors...his liberties with the text, however, are sure to disturb many."[4] Contents [hide] 1 Plot 2 Cast 2.1 The Danish court 2.2 Soldiers 2.3 The play within the play 2.4 Servants to the court 3 Production 4 Critical reception 5 Awards and honours 5.1 Academy Awards 5.2 Other awards 6 Influence 7 Television debut 8 Home media 9 References 10 External links Plot[edit]The film follows the overall story of the play, but cuts nearly half the dialogue, leaves out two major characters, and includes an opening voice-over that represents Hamlet's fundamental problem as indecision. The film begins with a narrator (actually Olivier himself) quoting some of Hamlet's lines from Act I Scene IV: So oft it chances in particular men, That through some vicious mole of nature in them, By the o'ergrowth of some complexion, Oft breaking down the pales and forts of reason, Or by some habit grown too much [this line is changed; Shakespeare's original line is or by some habit that too much o'erleavens the form of plausive manners[5]] ; that these men – Carrying, I say, the stamp of one defect, Their virtues else – be they as pure as grace, Shall in the general censure take corruption, From that particular fault... Olivier then breaks from Shakespeare's words to inform us "This is the tragedy of a man who could not make up his mind." The action begins on the battlements of Elsinore where a sentry, Francisco, (John Laurie) is relieved of his watch (and questioned if he has seen anything) by another sentry, Bernardo (Esmond Knight), who, with yet another sentry, Marcellus (Anthony Quayle), has twice previously seen the Ghost of King Hamlet. Marcellus then arrives with the sceptical Horatio (Norman Wooland), Prince Hamlet's friend. Suddenly, all three see the Ghost, and Horatio demands that the ghost speak. The ghost vanishes then, without a word. Inside the Great Hall of the castle, the court is celebrating the marriage of Gertrude (Eileen Herlie) and King Claudius (Basil Sydney); old King Hamlet has died apparently of an accidental snakebite, and his wife, Gertrude, has, within a month of the tragedy, married the late King's brother. Prince Hamlet (Laurence Olivier) sits alone, refusing to join in the celebration, despite the protests of the new King. When the court has left the Great Hall, Hamlet fumes over the hasty marriage, muttering to himself the words "and yet, within a month!" Soon, Horatio and the sentries enter telling Hamlet of the ghostly apparition of his father. Hamlet proceeds to investigate, and upon arriving on the battlements, sees the ghost. Noting that the ghost beckons him forward, Hamlet follows it up onto a tower, wherein it reveals its identity as the Ghost of Hamlet's father. He tells Hamlet that he was murdered, who did it, and how it was done. The audience then sees the murder re-enacted in a flashback as the ghost describes the deed – Claudius is seen pouring poison into the late King Hamlet's ear, thereby killing him. Hamlet does not at first accept this as the truth, and then prepares to feign madness, so as to test Claudius' conscience, without jumping to conclusions. This feigned insanity attracts the attention of Polonius (Felix Aylmer) who is completely convinced that Hamlet has gone mad. Polonius pushes this point with the King, claiming that it is derived from Hamlet's love for Ophelia (Jean Simmons), Polonius's daughter. Claudius, however, is not fully convinced, and has Polonius set up a meeting between Hamlet and Ophelia. Hamlet's "madness" is constant even in this exchange, and Claudius is convinced. Hamlet then hires a group of wandering stage performers, requesting that they enact the play The Murder of Gonzago for the king. However, Hamlet makes a few alterations to the play, so as to make it mirror the circumstances of the late King's murder. Claudius, unable to endure the play, calls out for light, and retires to his room. Hamlet is now convinced of Claudius' treachery. He finds Claudius alone, and has ample opportunity to kill the villain. However, at this time, Claudius is praying, and Hamlet does not seek to send him to heaven, so, he waits, and bides his time. He instead confronts Gertrude about the matter of his father's death and Claudius' treachery. During this confrontation, he hears a voice from the arras, and, believing that it was Claudius eavesdropping, plunges his dagger into the curtains. On discovering that he has in fact, killed the eavesdropping Polonius instead, Hamlet is only mildly upset, and he continues to confront his mother. He then sees the ghostly apparition of his father, and proceeds to converse with it (the Ghost is uncredited in the film, but is apparently voiced by Olivier himself). Gertrude, who cannot see the ghost, is now also convinced that Hamlet is mad. Hamlet is deported to England by Claudius, who has given orders for him to be killed once he reaches there. Fortunately, Hamlet's ship is attacked by pirates, and he is returned to Denmark. In his absence, however, Ophelia goes mad over Hamlet's rejection and the idea that her own sweetheart has killed her father, and she drowns, supposedly committing suicide. Laertes (Terence Morgan), Ophelia's brother, is driven to avenge her death, as well as his father's. Claudius and Laertes learn of Hamlet's return and prepare to have him killed. However, they plan to make it look like an accident. Claudius orders Laertes to challenge Hamlet to a duel, wherein Laertes will be given a poisoned blade that will kill with a bare touch. In case Laertes is unable to hit Hamlet, Claudius also prepares a poisoned drink. Hamlet meets Laertes' challenge and engages him in a duel. Hamlet wins the first two rounds, and Gertrude drinks from the cup, suspecting that it is poisoned. Whilst in-between bouts, Laertes rushes Hamlet and strikes him on the arm, fatally poisoning him. Hamlet, not knowing this, continues to duel. Hamlet eventually disarms Laertes and switches blades with him. Hamlet then strikes Laertes in the wrist, fatally wounding him. Gertrude then submits to the poison and dies, warning Hamlet not to drink from the cup. (Olivier thus makes Gertrude's death a virtual suicide to protect her son, while Shakespeare writes it as if it were purely accidental, with Gertrude having no idea that the cup is poisoned.) Laertes, dying, confesses the whole plot to Hamlet, who flies at Claudius in a fit of rage, killing him, before finally expiring himself. Horatio, horrified by all this, orders that Hamlet be given a decent funeral, and the young prince's body is taken away, while the Danish court kneels and the cannons of Elsinore fire off a peal of ordnance in respect. (A few women can be seen weeping quietly in the background.) Cast[edit]The Danish court[edit]Basil Sydney as King Claudius. Claudius is the brother, and murderer of the late King Hamlet, and marries his widow only two months after the King's death. Eileen Herlie as Queen Gertrude. Gertrude, now married to Claudius, does not suspect foul play, and fears for the health of her son. A Scottish-American actress, Herlie's role in Hamlet was secured by arrangement with Sir Alexander Korda, and she would repeat it in the 1964 Broadway production starring Richard Burton. Laurence Olivier as Hamlet, Prince of Denmark and the voice of Hamlet's father's ghost. Hamlet is the conflicted son of the late King, who is now suspicious of his father's death. Olivier, considered by many to be the greatest actor of the 20th century, had played this role twice on stage in 1937, at the Old Vic Theatre and later at Elsinore Castle, the actual setting of the play. His 1948 film performance of the role was the only one of his to win him an Academy Award for Best Actor, despite three prior nominations, and five subsequent ones. Olivier, however, did receive several Honorary Oscars. Norman Wooland as Horatio. Horatio is Hamlet's level-headed friend. Wooland was a German born British actor, who later played another companion to Olivier's character in Richard III. Felix Aylmer as Polonius, the Lord Chamberlain. Polonius is suspicious of Hamlet, and is convinced his insanity stems from the young prince's love for his daughter, Ophelia. Aylmer had worked with Olivier on his Henry V, also alongside him in As You Like It. Terence Morgan as Laertes, Polonius' son. Laertes arrives in Denmark to discover his father killed by Hamlet and Ophelia, his sister, first driven mad and then to her own death. He vows vengeance against Hamlet. Morgan was a British actor, who joined the Old Vic company in 1948. Jean Simmons as Ophelia. Ophelia is the daughter of Polonius, and is driven mad by his death, as well as by Hamlet's rejection. Simmons' performance in this film won her a nomination for Best Supporting Actress at that year's Oscars. Until her death she was the last surviving principal cast member (excluding extras). Soldiers[edit]John Laurie as Francisco. Francisco is a weary sentry, who is relieved by Bernardo at the beginning of the film and never reappears. John Laurie appeared in all three of Olivier-directed Shakespeare films as well as in the 1936 As You Like It, which starred Olivier. Esmond Knight as Bernardo, or, as it is sometimes spelled, Barnardo. Bernardo is a sentry who is sent to relieve Francisco, however, in the process he sees the apparition of King Hamlet. He and Marcellus have seen it twice before, but have found it difficult to convince Horatio, until Horatio sees it himself. Esmond Knight appeared in Richard III and The Prince and the Showgirl. Anthony Quayle as Marcellus. Marcellus is a soldier stationed at Elsinore. He and Bernardo have already seen the ghost. Niall MacGinnis as 'Sea Captain'. The Sea Captain (a character invented for the film) is the captain of the ship that Hamlet sets out on for England. The captain's lines, though, are from the original play, where they are spoken by a sailor. Christopher Lee, later known for horror films, has an uncredited role as a spear carrier with no spoken lines The play within the play[edit]Harcourt Williams as the First Player. The First Player is enlisted by Hamlet to alter their play to mirror his suspicions about Claudius. Harcourt Williams had appeared in Olivier's film of Henry V prior to this. Patrick Troughton as the Player King. The Player King enacts a mimed play that echoes Claudius' treachery. Tony Tarver as the Player Queen. The Player Queen plays the King's wife onstage; in Olivier's film she is a satire of Gertrude, intended to catch the conscience of Claudius. Servants to the court[edit]Peter Cushing as Osric. Osric is a foppish courtier who referees the duel between Hamlet and Laertes. In later film versions of the play, such as the 1969 one with Nicol Williamson, Osric would be made more openly "swishy". Stanley Holloway as Gravedigger. (The second Gravedigger of the play is omitted.) The Gravedigger is digging Ophelia's grave when Hamlet and Horatio come across him. Russell Thorndike as the Priest. The Priest leads the funeral ceremony for Ophelia. Production[edit]Casting and filming Eileen Herlie, who plays Hamlet's mother, was 28 years old when the movie was filmed. Olivier, who plays her son, was 40. Olivier played the voice of the Ghost himself by recording the dialogue and playing it back at a reduced speed, giving it a haunted, other-worldly quality. However, for many years it was assumed, even in film reference books, that John Gielgud had played the voice of the Ghost. Gielgud would go on to play this role in three later productions – the 1964 film and stage versions of Richard Burton's Hamlet, the 1970 telecast of the Hallmark Hall of Fame production starring Richard Chamberlain, and a 1994 radio production starring Kenneth Branagh.[6] Cinematography The cinematography, by Desmond Dickinson, makes use of the deep focus photography previously popularised in films directed by William Wyler and Orson Welles. Music The music was composed by William Walton and, next to his score for Olivier's 1944 film Henry V, has become his most celebrated film score.[citation needed] Critical reception[edit]The film's opening with Olivier's voiceover of his own interpretation of the play, was criticised as reductive: "This is the tragedy of a man who could not make up his mind."[7] Olivier excised the "political" elements of the play (entirely cutting Fortinbras, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern) in favour of an intensely psychological performance, partly to save time. Olivier himself stated that "one great whacking cut had to be made", and the cut he chose to make was the omission of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern.[8] This was not much criticised at first, but later critics did take more notice of it, especially after shorter productions of Hamlet that did not leave out these characters were presented on television. John Gielgud took much the same approach years later by also leaving out Rosencrantz, Guildenstern, and Fortinbras out of his 1951 radio production of the play, broadcast on the program Theatre Guild on the Air. Gielgud also followed the lead of Olivier's film version by giving the final lines of the play to Horatio instead of to Fortinbras.[9] Olivier also played up the Oedipal overtones of the play by having Hamlet kiss his mother lovingly on the lips several times during the film. Film scholar Jack Jorgens has commented that "Hamlet's scenes with the Queen in her low-cut gowns are virtually love scenes."[10] In contrast, Jean Simmons' Ophelia is destroyed by Hamlet's treatment of her in the nunnery scene. According to J. Lawrence Guntner, the style of the film owes much to German Expressionism and to film noir: the cavernous sets featuring narrow winding stairwells correspond to the labyrinths of Hamlet's psyche.[11] Awards and honours[edit]The 1948 Hamlet was the only film in which the leading actor has directed himself to an Oscar-winning performance, until 1998, when Roberto Benigni directed himself to an Oscar in Life Is Beautiful. Olivier is also the only actor to win an Oscar for a Shakespearean role. Hamlet is the only film to have won both the Golden Lion and the Academy Award for Best Picture. It is also the first non-American film to win the Best Picture Academy Award. Academy Awards[edit]Award[12] Name Best Actor in a Leading Role Laurence Olivier Best Art Direction-Set Decoration, Black-and-White Roger Furse Carmen Dillon Best Costume Design, Black-and-White Roger Furse Best Picture J. Arthur Rank-Two Cities Film (Laurence Olivier, producer) Nomination Best Actress in a Supporting Role Jean Simmons Best Score William Walton Best Director Laurence Olivier Other awards[edit]1948 – Venice Film Festival – Great International Prize of Venice (winner) 1949 – BAFTA Award – Best Film From Any Source (winner) 1949 – BAFTA Award – Best British Film (nominee) 1949 – Bodil Awards – Best European Film (winner) 1949 – Golden Globe Award – Best Motion Picture - Foreign (winner) 1949 – Golden Globe Award – Best Actor (Laurence Olivier) (winner) Influence[edit]In the past, the 1948 film was often considered the definitive cinematic rendition of Hamlet. Over the years, however, it has lost some of its status, especially in comparison to Olivier's versions of Henry V and Richard III.[13] This is primarily because Olivier, according to some critics,[14] overemphasised Hamlet's Oedipal fixation on his mother, and because Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, two of the most important supporting characters in the play, were completely omitted from this film version, robbing the film of what could have been some of its best comedic moments. (The fact that Rosencrantz and Guildernstern had been included in the 1969 Nicol Williamson – Tony Richardson Hamlet and the 1990 Mel Gibson – Franco Zeffirelli version, both of which are shorter than Olivier's, did not help Olivier's rationale[15] that the play needed such drastic cuts to work on screen). In contrast, Kenneth Branagh's 1996 film version of the complete Hamlet included everything that Olivier had omitted. Pauline Kael has asserted that "even if you feel that certain scenes should be done differently, when has the rest of the play been done so well? Whatever the omissions, the mutilations, the mistakes, this is very likely the most exciting and most alive production of Hamlet you will ever see on the screen. It's never dull, and if characters such as Fortinbras and Rosencrantz and Guildenstern have been sacrificed, it's remarkable how little they are missed."[16] In fact Time magazine wrote in 1948:- "A man who can do what Laurence Olivier is doing for Shakespeare is certainly among the more valuable men of his time."[17] Television debut[edit]Hamlet was the second of Olivier's Shakespeare films to be telecast on American commercial network television – the first was Richard III, which was given an afternoon rather than a prime-time showing by NBC on 11 March 1956, the same day that it premiered in cinemas in the US The American Broadcasting Company gave the Olivier Hamlet a prime time showing in December 1956 but, like many theatrical films shown on television during that era, it was split into two 90-minute halves and telecast over a period of two weeks, rather than being shown complete on one evening. Only a month previously, MGM's 1939 film The Wizard of Oz had had its first television showing – on CBS – and, unlike Hamlet, had been shown complete in one evening. Home media[edit]In North America, Olivier's Hamlet has been released on DVD as part of The Criterion Collection, which has also released his film versions of Henry V and Richard III on DVD. The film has been released on Blu-ray Disc in the UK, however this disc is Region B locked and will not work in most American players. References[edit]Notes Jump up ^ "BRITISH FILMS' UPHILL FIGHT.".

They are often mentioned in journalism (cf. news style), research, and police investigations.[1] They constitute a formula for getting the complete story on a subject.[2] According to the principle of the Five Ws, a report can only be considered complete if it answers these questions starting with an interrogative word:[3] Who is it about? What happened? When did it take place? Where did it take place? Why did it happen? Some authors add a sixth question, “how”, to the list, though "how" can also be covered by "what", "where", or "when":[3] How did it happen Each question should have a factual answer — facts necessary to include for a report to be considered complete.[4] Importantly, none of these questions can be answered with a simple "yes" or "no". In British education, the Five Ws are used in Key Stage 3 (age 12–14) lessons.[5] History[edit]This section focuses on the history of the series of questions as a way of formulating or analyzing rhetorical questions, and not the theory of circumstances in general.[6] The rhetor Hermagoras of Temnos, as quoted in pseudo-Augustine's De Rhetorica[7] defined seven "circumstances" (μόρια περιστάσεως 'elements of circumstance'[8]) as the loci of an issue: Quis, quid, quando, ubi, cur, quem ad modum, quibus adminiculis.[9][10] (Who, what, when, where, why, in what way, by what means) Cicero had a similar concept of circumstances, but though Thomas Aquinas attributes the questions to Cicero, they do not appear in his writings. Similarly, Quintilian discussed loci argumentorum, but did not put them in the form of questions.[9] Victorinus explained Cicero's system of circumstances by putting them into correspondence with Hermagoras's questions:[9] Julius Victor also lists circumstances as questions.[9] Boethius "made the seven circumstances fundamental to the arts of prosecution and defense": Quis, quid, cur, quomodo, ubi, quando, quibus auxiliis.[9] (Who, what, why, how, where, when, with what) The question form was taken up again in the 12th century by Thierry de Chartres and John of Salisbury.[9] To administer suitable penance to sinners, the 21st canon of the Fourth Lateran Council (1215) enjoined confessors to investigate both sins and the circumstances of the sins. The question form was popular for guiding confessors, and it appeared in several different forms:[11] Quis, quid, ubi, per quos, quoties, cur, quomodo, quando.[12] Quis, quid, ubi, quibus auxiliis, cur, quomodo, quando.[13] Quis, quid, ubi, cum quo, quotiens, cur, quomodo, quando.[14] Quid, quis, ubi, quibus auxiliis, cur, quomodo, quando.[15] Quid, ubi, quare, quantum, conditio, quomodo, quando: adiuncto quoties.[16] The method of questions was also used for the systematic exegesis of a text.[17] Later, Thomas Wilson wrote in English verse: Who, what, and where, by what helpe, and by whose: Why, how, and when, doe many things disclose.[18] In the 19th century US, Prof. William Cleaver Wilkinson popularized the "Three Ws" – What? Why? What of it? – as a method of Bible study in the 1880s, though he did not claim originality. This became the "Five Ws", though the application was rather different from that in journalism: "What? Why? What of it?" is a plan of study of alliterative methods for the teacher emphasized by Professor W.C. Wilkinson not as original with himself but as of venerable authority. "It is, in fact," he says, "an almost immemorial orator's analysis. First the facts, next the proof of the facts, then the consequences of the facts. This analysis has often been expanded into one known as "The Five Ws:" "When? Where? Who? What? Why?" Hereby attention is called, in the study of any lesson: to the date of its incidents; to their place or locality; to the person speaking or spoken to, or to the persons introduced, in the narrative; to the incidents or statements of the text; and, finally, to the applications and uses of the lesson teachings.[19] Wikisource has original text related to this article: The Elephant's Child The "Five Ws" (and one H) were memorialized by Rudyard Kipling in his "Just So Stories" (1902), in which a poem accompanying the tale of "The Elephant's Child" opens with: I keep six honest serving-men (They taught me all I knew); Their names are What and Why and When And How and Where and Who. This is why the "Five Ws and One H" problem solving method is also called as the "Kipling Method", which helps to explore the problems by challenging them with these questions. By 1917, the "Five Ws" were being taught in high-school journalism classes,[20] and by 1940, the "Five Ws" were being characterized as old-fashioned and fallacious: The old-fashioned lead of the five Ws and the H, crystallized largely by Pulitzer's "new journalism" and sanctified by the schools, is widely giving way to the much more supple and interesting feature lead, even on straight news stories.[21] All of you know about — and I hope all of you admit the fallacy of — the doctrine of the five Ws in the first sentence of the newspaper story.[22] See also[edit]Who, whom?

Date Posted: 21:15:10 10/03/13 Thu Record Store Day From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Record Store Day Observed by Record stores Record collectors Audiophiles Musicians Record labels Type Cultural, commercial Date Third Saturday in April 2012 date April 21 2013 date April 20 2014 date April 19 2015 date April 18 Celebrations Live performances, Limited edition music releases Record Store Day is an internationally celebrated day observed the third Saturday of April each year. Its purpose is to celebrate the culture of the independently owned record store.[1] The day brings together fans, artists, and thousands of independent record stores across the world.[2] Sparked by a comment by Bull Moose employee Chris Brown that something could be done along the lines of Free Comic Book Day, and with inspiration from a brainstorming session during a record store owners' meeting in Baltimore, Record Store Day was officially founded in 2007[1] by Eric Levin, Michael Kurtz, Carrie Colliton, Amy Dorfman, Don Van Cleave and Brian Poehner and is now celebrated[1] at stores across the world, with hundreds of recording and other artists participating in the day by making special appearances, performances, meet and greets with their fans, the holding of art exhibits, and the issuing of special vinyl and CD releases along with other promotional products to mark the occasion. Each store holds their own party for the day, making it a true celebration of the individuality of each store, and the place it holds in its community. Record Store Day, the Day, may only be once a year, but Record Store Day, the organization, provides promotions, marketing, and other opportunities for stores throughout the year, maintaining a website, www.recordstoreday.com, social media and other means of spreading the word about the special place that is the independent record store. Record Store Day is managed on a day-to-day basis by the Dept. of Record Stores, along with the Coalition of Independent Music Stores and the Alliance of Independent Media Stores. |

Non Metclub members had to wear red numbered wristbands while the Metclub members wore blue ones.

There were approximately 10 special Record Store Day releases in the first year, including releases by Death Cab For Cutie, R.E.M., Stephen Malkmus, Vampire Weekend, The Teenagers, Black Kids, and Jason Mraz. Billy Bragg met Record Store Day co-founder Michael Kurtz in an airport and agreed to help kick off Record Store Day in the UK with a special live appearance. Approximately 300 stores launched Record Store Day in the USA, including Waterloo Records, School Kids Records, and Vintage Vinyl. The first organized involvement by UK stores included Piccadilly Records in Manchester, Jumbo Records in Leeds, Resident in Brighton, Sister Ray and Rough Trade in London, Rapture in Witney, Oxfordshire, Spillers in Cardiff and Avalanche Records in Edinburgh and Glasgow.

Eagles of Death Metal's Jesse Hughes announced that he was the official "Ambassador of Record Store Day" and the band made an appearance at Rhino Records. Mayor Mike Bloomberg announced that the City of New York officially recognized Record Store Day as a city-wide event and the judges on American Idol talked about their favorite records in honor of Record Store Day in the episode of American Idol prior to the event. Even though 95% of the special releases made for Record Store Day were for the USA, the event began to grow internationally with over 1,000 record stores in the US, the UK, Ireland, Japan, Canada, Italy, Sweden, Norway, the Netherlands, and Germany all participated in the international event.[citation needed] Record Store Day 2010[edit]The third annual Record Store Day took place on Saturday, April 17, 2010. The official ambassador for the event was Joshua Homme.[3] The official book of the event was "Last Shop Standing: Whatever Happened to Record Shops by Graham Jones". KCRW's Gary Calamar and Phil Gallo also released their own self-published book, "Record Store Days", which talks about independent record stores, with artist quotes provided by www.recordstoreday.com used throughout the book, and a specific chapter devoted to Record Store Day. NYC Mayor Mike Bloomberg and New York City once again honored the day. Anything Anything with Rich Russo released a vinyl album of local bands performing on his radio show as well as doing a bus tour visiting numerous New York and New Jersey record stores. Several artists made in-store appearances to mark the event:The Smashing Pumpkins announced that they would kick off the tour promoting their new album with a special Record Store Day concert at Amoeba in Hollywood, CA. Other artists to announce special appearances included Frank Black, Exene Cervenka, Angie Stone, Jason Derulo, Alice in Chains, Mastodon, Josh Ritter, HIM, Slash, Sick Puppies, Care Bears on Fire, and Emmylou Harris. The year's event was also celebrated by giving young artists an opportunity to showcase their talent in the form of a national "Record Store Day: High School Battle of the Bands".[4] Local, participating independent record stores nominated one local high school band by picking a cut from the band's supplied recording and entered their name and song cut into the contest. A panel of record executives and members from the Fender Corporation judged the entrants. Nine national semi-finalists were chosen to appear on a limited edition, compilation vinyl LP of their winning songs. Pressed by Gotta Groove, the LP features digital convenience. On the day of the event, it was announced that the grand prize winning band was SANUK, an indie band of HS students from Indianapolis, Indiana. They received a generous prize package of musical gear from the Fender Corporation and recording time with recording greats - Jack Ponti and Kevin "The Caveman" Shirley. SANUK was championed by their local record store, Indy CD & Vinyl. The sponsors of the contest were Caroline Distribution and EMI Label Services, Fender,[5] and Fender Music Foundation. Aside from the Band Battle contest, many participating record stores had a line-up of live talent performing throughout the day. In 2010, more than 1,400 independent record stores participated in the unofficial holiday. More than 1,000 were from the US alone. Record stores saw a 41% increase in sales over the previous year's celebration, and a 109% increase over the previous Saturday's sales.[6] By this time, the event had become such a nationally recognized event, that in the U.S., it was even referenced on "Saturday Night Live."[7] During the year, the first Black Friday Record Store Day was also held, on November 26, 2010.

Most of the releases for the year were limited between 300 and 7000 copies worldwide. According to Billboard Magazine, the 182,000 bump in unit sales in the week that Record Store Day was held was directly attributed to the success of the event itself.

Date Posted: 22:11:54 10/01/13 Tue From today's featured article Ramaria botrytis is an edible species of coral fungus in the family Gomphaceae. It is commonly known as the clustered coral, the pink-tipped coral mushroom, or the cauliflower coral. Its robust fruit body can grow up to 15 cm (6 in) in diameter and 20 cm (8 in) tall, and resembles some marine coral. Its dense branches, which originate from a stout, massive base, are swollen at the tips and divided into several small branchlets. The branches are initially whitish but age to buff or tan, with tips that are pink to reddish. The flesh is thick and white. The type species of the genus Ramaria, R. botrytis was first described scientifically in 1797 by mycologist Christiaan Hendrik Persoon. A widely distributed species, it is found in North America, North Africa, central and eastern Europe, Australia, and Asia. Fruit bodies of Ramaria botrytis are edible, and young specimens have a mild, fruity taste. Some authors warn of laxative effects in susceptible individuals. The fungus contains several bioactive compounds, and fruit bodies have antimicrobial activity against several species and strains of drug-resistant bacteria that cause disease in humans.
