<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Although the decision was difficult, the winner of Kidd Kraddick&#8217;s &#8220;Tick Tock Jingle&#8221; audition was Jordana Malkoff! Everyone who auditioned did an amazing job and was used in some of the backup vocals and harmonies. The jingle, which turned out extremely well, has already been used to open the Kidd Kraddick Show, and will hopefully be used much more in the future. Click <a href="www.myspace.com/septienentertainmentgroup">here to have a listen!&#160;We look forward to holding many more auditions, and can&#8217;t wait to see what our students can do!</a></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:justify;"><a href="http://rplib.files.wordpress.com/2010/02/applied-calculus.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1255" title="Applied Calculus" src="http://rplib.files.wordpress.com/2010/02/applied-calculus.jpg?w=171&#038;h=245" alt="" width="171" height="245" /></a>Are you one of those students who studies the 6p, practices questions, sits for UT and hope to get good grades out of it? You may have spent a lot of time and effort on studying. But have you acquired any knowledge? If you are unable to apply what you have learnt in class, then you have not acquired any knowledge.  If you want to know how you can apply calculus to real situations, you have to refer to this book.  </p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Many of us may be good at mathematics and calculations but not many of us are able to apply the concepts. This book focuses on the application of Calculus to Business, Economics and the Social and Life Sciences. I would recommend it to all students (from year 1 to year 3), as this book provides plenty of real life examples, thus easier to understand calculus. </p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">If you are weak in mathematics, you can still start from the fundamentals in this book then move on to the advance level later. This book also covers some of the concepts that we have studied in Secondary School, for instance, product rules, quotient rules and quadratic formula. </p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">If you think that calculus is boring, then you should pick up this book today. I am certain that you will change your mind about calculus and realise the usefulness of the concepts.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:justify;"><a href="http://rplib.files.wordpress.com/2010/01/big-wings.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1216" title="big wings" src="http://rplib.files.wordpress.com/2010/01/big-wings.jpg?w=214&#038;h=248" alt="" width="214" height="248" /></a>“Big Wings” showcases some of the world’s largest aeroplanes and it is definitely the book for all those aeroplane lovers. I find that this book will also be very useful for students in the school of engineering, especially those who are taking Diploma in Aerospace Avionics, Diploma in Aerospace Engineering and Diploma in Civil Aviation. In the beginning of “Big Wings”, you will read about the history of bombers (military aircrafts). After I read through it, I felt that it is very important to understand the history of the aeroplanes. This book clearly depicts how the military planes developed from those old days when technology was not so advanced. I am very impressed with the engineers as they managed to succeed even though they faced numerous obstacles when developing the aircrafts. There is a huge collection of photos in this book and you can evidently see the evolution of the aeroplanes from the past to the present. This book also mentioned the making of the world’s largest plane &#8211; Airbus 380, which broke the world record as it is able to carry a maximum of 800 passengers on one flight. I feel that this book can be read anytime as the facts presented are very interesting. I am sure no one will feel bored when reading the book. You should pick up this book from the library today!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:justify;"><a href="http://rplib.files.wordpress.com/2010/01/biology.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1192" title="biology" src="http://rplib.files.wordpress.com/2010/01/biology.jpg?w=214&#038;h=260" alt="" width="214" height="260" /></a>When you are lingering at the door of science, try spending more time thinking about nature with respect to biology. You might remain perplexed despite much thought about how an animal can develop from such small cells. You might want to find out more about the evolution of biological diversity, and I would like to recommend you this book titled Biology by Campbell Reece.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">There are eight units in this book and Reece helps reader to form a clearer understanding on the intimate relationship between life and biology right at the beginning. This book can be divided into three parts. The first part is <strong>Genetics,</strong> which introduces gene expression, gene replication and hereditary disease. Based on this it explains how evolution can be viewed as a pattern and a process and how prokaryotes reproduce, mutate, and recombine. In<strong> Cell</strong>, the author<strong> </strong>discusses cell’s structure, functions and cell organelles. The last part is about <strong>Plant &#38; Animal</strong> <strong>form and function,</strong> the experimental basis of our understanding of plant biology and evolutionary perspective underscoring how environment and physical laws shape adaptations across animal groups.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">This book not only highlights the importance of biology, it also helps us make sense of science and form our scientific thinking.</p>

This book covers the key <strong>Chapters of physics  which are Mechanics physics and Thermodynamics physics</strong>.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"> Mechanics physics is quite an interesting topic among all the other topics because it’s quite similar to our daily life. For example, in Chapter 4 and 5, the author explained about <strong>Newton’s 1<sup>st</sup> law, 2<sup>nd</sup> law and 3<sup>rd</sup> law </strong>of motions. From these, we can understand how things move and how they can be moved. For instance, the driving of a car. But we cannot forget the importance of “<strong>Friction</strong>”. Without it, we can’t even walk. You can find out more in this book. Another interesting topic is Chapter 14 which include nature of fluid motion, laws of fluid motion, etc. After reading them, you would probably understand how water comes out from your hand shower when you are taking a bath. </p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">I personally like this book because in every chapter, the author explained all the theories clearly, followed by fully worked problems and practice problems with answers so that you may work them out on your own. This allows you to study the topic independently.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><a href="http://rplib.wordpress.com/files/2009/12/calculus1.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-1135 alignleft" title="calculus" src="http://rplib.wordpress.com/files/2009/12/calculus1.jpg" alt="" width="196" height="277" /></a>This book is a good reference, especially for the students who are taking <strong>A211-Advanced Mathematics I &#8211; differential equations</strong>.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Based on my experience, at the start of the lessons, this module introduces the part about differentiation equations (mainly talk about the derivatives).  By simply following the worksheets, it is difficult for most students new to the topic to solve the questions. With the help of this book, which provides more information starting from the fundamental to more advanced level, not only can students learn better but also challenges them. For example, in Chapter 3 which is on the derivative, instead of plunging into the topic itself, the book guides the students to learn rate of change in physical phenomena such as the speed of a car, growth number of bacteria and so on. Following the topic, it shows the proof and relation of linking rate of change into derivative function. Then it introduces main rules used in derivative calculations such as product rule, chain rule and power rule. For each rule, the book shows detailed proofs for the theorem and provides graphs for explanation. So when student read through those chapters, they won’t be bored and those graphs strengthen their impressions about the rules. What’s more? It attaches examples and practices for students to practice and gain improvements. Indeed, I have to say this book teaches me more than the school’s 6<sup>th</sup> P. The later part of the module on Advanced Mathematics I covers a lot of problems about integration which is much more difficult than derivative. This book will ease your way in learning it well. It provides good and detailed explanations about the symbols used in integration so that when you are questioned, you will be able to react faster and answer better.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">This book also benefits students who are taking <strong>E336 Biomedical Signal Processing and E204 Linear Circuits and Control</strong>. These two modules require students to apply math knowledge in some problems. For example, in Chapter 10, the Euler’s method is introduced. This is a very important part for application in most <strong>SEG </strong>modules while doing calculations.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Indeed, this book has benefitted me in my studies at RP for two years. I would like to share my learning experience and pass the good things to my juniors and help them gain achievements at RP.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><a href="http://rplib.wordpress.com/files/2009/12/conceptual-physics.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-1130 alignleft" title="Conceptual Physics" src="http://rplib.wordpress.com/files/2009/12/conceptual-physics.jpg" alt="" width="275" height="298" /></a>This book offers a great help for you to understand more about physics. The author has covered the entire area of physics which include mechanics, heat, sound, electricity, and so on.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Being an Engineering student, my main interests lie in mechanics and electricity. In part one of the book, the author talks about mechanics physics which includes Aristotle on motion, Newton’s First law of motion, momentum, and more to give us a better understanding of how objects are moving and what are the energies needed for them to move.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">I enjoyed Chapter 23 most which was on <strong>Electric Current</strong> because it talks about electric current, electric circuits, parallel and series circuits, etc. The overloading of circuits and safety fuses were covered as well. I believed this information is very relevant to our daily lives as we use electricity everyday and in understanding it well, we can handle it with care for our own safety.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Moreover, the author has covered a lot of interesting topics like atomic and nuclear physics, properties of light, etc. Since the author has generously offered such abundant topics, you can easily indulge in one of the topics of your interests.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Last but not least, if you are taking <strong>A203 Applied Physics and A207 Physics modules</strong>, you may use this book as reference and get yourself prepared for your Understanding Tests.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">I enjoy physics, and I’m sure you will too.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:justify;"><a href="http://rplib.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/six-sigma-for-green-belts-and-champions.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1070" title="six sigma for green belts and champions" src="http://rplib.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/six-sigma-for-green-belts-and-champions.jpg" alt="" width="221" height="268" /></a>“Continuous improvement”… What does this phrase remind you of? Is it only applicable to the business or engineering field? How do you apply the continuous improvement process using the Six Sigma approach?</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Well, the truth is this concept can be applied to a wide range of activities, including in a multinational corporation to maintain its competitiveness!</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">This book is all about the Six Sigma methodology, a systematic quality improvement methodology that is widely valued and used by companies worldwide. These five key major steps are described in details in this book &#8211; Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control, and how they seek to reduce variation and eventually, increase quality and performance. This book has a comprehensive introduction to Six Sigma and there are even various statistical tools that can help you in carrying out analysis and making objective judgement.<!--more--></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">I came across this book after learning from my facilitator that she has relevant experience in Six Sigma and this subject is also covered in one of the modules in my diploma programme. Having the urge to know more about Six Sigma, I borrowed this book from the library and started reading it. It has definitely alleviated my interest and appreciation in Six Sigma since then. The authors are the experts in the field of Six Sigma and statistics, so I am not surprise that this book has provided me with a good introduction to Six Sigma and many other quality-related concepts found in my course.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">I would recommend this book to the students taking <span style="text-decoration:underline;">E326 Lean Manufacturing and Six Sigma</span> module, or students from <span style="text-decoration:underline;">Diploma in Industrial and Operations Management</span> and <span style="text-decoration:underline;">Diploma in Supply Chain Management</span>. Many concepts are illustrated with relevant examples and there are even sample questions and answers to test your level of understanding on the topic. The authors have definitely covered sufficient breadth and depth on the subject.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">This book has worked for me, and I believe you will find it useful too!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:justify;"><a href="http://rplib.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/electronics-fundamentals.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1034" title="electronics fundamentals" src="http://rplib.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/electronics-fundamentals.jpg" alt="" width="184" height="247" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">This is a very useful and good book for the students who are from the <strong>School of Engineering (SEG).</strong> For SEG students taking <strong>E203 Circuit Analysis and E219 Analogue Electronics </strong>in Year Two, this book is your best tool to score As for these units in both your daily grades and UTs.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">The book provides detailed information about theories and derivation of formulas. It also allows the reader to learn things in a more systematic way. It covers a lot of information about AC and DC circuits, especially capacitors, inductors, RLC circuits and resonance, etc.  All these are required knowledge in E203 Circuit Analysis. </p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Based my experience, it is not easy for the freshman to solve the problem statement and gain good understanding of the topics if he depends only on the worksheet provided. Some may go online to look for resources but information from the internet may not be reliable.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Your best choice would be to borrow this book. For example, in part II, Chapter 10, the book guides you in understanding the relationship between current and voltage in an RC circuit first, followed by the sinusoidal response of RC circuits. It provides both graphs and detailed calculation procedures. Explanatory notes accompany for each step. What’s more, it has practice questions as tests for students. By going through those practice questions, you will be able to understand the circuit better and remember the formulas used. I greatly believe that ‘practice makes perfect!’. As you go through more practices, your UT grades will definitely be higher and better.<!--more--></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">As for E219 Analogue Electronics, the book covers topics on diodes and amplifiers. Based on my experience, the module doesn’t guide you through on how the semiconductor works and how it becomes a Diode. I think it will be better to get an understanding of the biasing of the PN junction first because it really benefits our understanding about diodes.  This book provides detailed information about it and provides practice questions as well.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Most importantly, this book will make your study of E203 Circuit Analysis and E219 Analogue Electronics easier and more effective because you don’t have to spend too much time in searching online and filtering information. By making full use of this book, you will be able to learn more systematically. Indeed, if you face difficulties in circuit analysis or analogue electronics, please get help from this book. You would learn more than expected.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Vilken långsam dag det varit, har känts som sirap. När man flera gånger kollar om man verkligen är inloggad för att man inte får samtal, då vet man det är en seg dag. Ligger och har syster min på webbkamera när jag skriver, har tråkigt så jag gör massa grimaser. Hon hävdar att hon har en mycket omogen storasyster <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> .  Ska bli skönt att komma upp till jul, saknar familjen en hel del, och kompisar man inte sett på just nu 8 månader.</p>
<p>Har ingen inspiration alls, känns inte som nåt särskilt hänt idag. Suttit och kollat So you think you can dance när det har varit lugnt. Haft lite sjuka samtal med kollegorna (som vanligt), och har hittat en mycket trevlig sak i affären. Det har börjar komma fram julkakor och liknande så jag har dels hittat blossa glögg och dels en sorts pepparkaka som är underbar. Mjuk pepparkaka med lingonfyllning och doppad i choklad, små minikakor. De är hur goda som helst.</p>
<p>Ska ta och se nåt avsnitt So you think you can dance, sen sova och krama pojkvännen, jobb imorgon igen.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:justify;">Egentligen är jag seg i hela kroppen men huvudet är nog värst. Det var nog ingen bra idé att äta så många tabletter Tramal men dom verkade inte så bra (precis som min läkare skrev) så jag tog nya lite oftare än vad man egentligen borde göra. Men jag hoppas att det inte blir så långvarigt för det är ganska så jobbigt när man bara ligger i soffan och halvsover medan ungarna håller på och busar.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Ikväll blir det tidigt i sängen för mig med. Höll på att somna när jag nattade minstingen. Igår blev det klockan 20 men ikväll tänkte jag åtminstone vänta tills den äldsta tjejen somnat för hon ligger i sängen bredvid mig. Egentligen tycker jag inte om när någon ligger bredvid mig så där men jag säger inget för då blir alla sårade.</p>

<p>Dear Honourable Judge,</p>
<div>
<div>
<p> You are more dangerous than the worst of the worst sex offenders in any prison today. Why? Because of your ruling in Vancouver Case File No: 141079-3-C2.  This is the case from 2002-2004 against Sweet Entertainment Group &#8220;torture extreme pornography&#8221; company in Vancouver who were raided twice by police and had complaints by concerned citizens about the acts of grotesque violence and sexual perversion commited. </p>
<p>My knowledge of this case arose due to a friend breaking down and confessing what happened to her at the hands of 4 men from the Sweet Entertainment Group / Diverse Talent in Vancouver BC. <a href="http://www.straight.com/article/unprecedented-obscene-video-case-in-court">http://www.straight.com/article/unprecedented-obscene-video-case-in-court</a></p>
<p><strong>Judge Low I am writing to tell you that what these women go through is real pain</strong>…the screams of pain and the pleas were REAL. How good can &#8220;actresses&#8221; pulled off the street be!!!  They were coned/bribed/desperate into signing a waiver BEFORE is all begins. Here&#8217;s what happened to my friend as she stood naked in the room wiht four men&#8230;when she tried to refuse to do what was asked, she was forcefully held.   I have never gone to any such &#8220;entertainment&#8221; audition for any such performance…but if I had…and been in that room that my friend was in, standing NAKED alone with four men in the room…I would’ve cooperated too!!  After all, where could one hide any hope of self defence…I don’t know about you, but when I’m standing naked in a room my self confidence isn’t that high either. How about yours? </p>
<p>For you to base your final ruling on HOLLYWOOD movies…<strong>I have a newsflash for you Judge Low…HOLLYWOOD is make believe,</strong> properly controlled with more than one woman alone in a room with 4 men. Judge Low my friend was under the threat of being raped. Does that happen in HOLLYWOOD big production movies as the ones you based your ruling on. Those make believe Hollywood movies, your ruling and a great con job on the part of the defence attorney Paul Kent-Snowsell (appropriate last name…it sounds like he “snow”ed and sold you quite effectively).  How dare you determine what is our code of moral decency in this country.  How dare you feel the privilege and power to even make any such ruling on behalf of Canada and its citizens who depend on our justice system to uphold some sense of moral decency…<strong>what’s next child pornography legalized… after all Judge Low, we do see child abuse in HOLLYWOOD movies&#8230;how about we request that Sweet Entertainment shoot their next victim in the knee&#8230;.</strong>well after all, as those same &#8220;doctors&#8221; once again say &#8221;no serious lasting damage&#8221;.  <strong>These women are not HOLLYWOOD actresses!</strong> What went on in these eleven movies was not &#8220;little more than theatrics&#8221; as the Defense attorney stated. The Defense&#8217;s medical experts claim that watching &#8220;extreme violence porn&#8221; doesn&#8217;t increase violence against women.  <strong>Are you that naive!</strong> If that&#8217;s the case then I&#8217;m sure pedophiles don&#8217;t get motivated by kidde porn! <strong>How dare you allow this case to have changed the standards and set the most dangerous precedent.</strong> How I wish a jury had been present.   I read the trial notes and the efforts of the prosecution seemed lacklustre at best, how could they not have any contrary experts to the defenses so called experts?  <strong>You based your ruling on the Defense playing excerps from American Psycho and other such MADE UP MAKE BELIEVE MOVIES! You have brought a new level of danger and made it now permissable in our society. These movies were sick and these women were NOT actresses&#8230; nor did they have the good fortune of having body doubles&#8230;did you know they use body doubles in Hollywood Judge Low?   </strong></p>
<p>My friend   was so <strong>petrified, humiliated and ashamed</strong> of what happened she could not speak of the atrocities until 8 years later. Her pain was unbearable and heartbreaking.    ”No evidence of any adverse effects” as a result of men watching extreme pornography…God forbid a woman is caught for infidelity and has her head shoved in the toilet and her mouth urinated in as was the scene in “Rage”.  How about the electrocution videos&#8230;how about the blood that was drawn from a woman&#8217;s breasts&#8230;<strong>THAT DOESN&#8217;T HAPPEN IN HOLLYWOOD. IT&#8217;S FAKE BLOOD IN HOLLYWOOD.</strong> What&#8217;s next&#8230;will they shoot her in the leg next and have the same medical experts called to testify that they&#8217;re were no lasting damage done to these women patch her all up again?! YOU ARE A DANGEROUS MAN JUDGE LOW! Before any of your think I&#8217;m overreating&#8230;please read some of the points below:</p>
<ol>
<li>the electrocutIon of these women&#8230;was not &#8220;little more than theatrics&#8221;&#8230;that&#8217;s what electrocution does Judge Low&#8230;it BURNS THE SKIN&#8230;</li>
<li>they pierced their flesh and genitalia&#8230;that wasn&#8217;t the next Academy Award performance Judge Low, those screams were REAL&#8230;those women were in pain. </li>
<li>they took a woman&#8217;s head and forced her head in the toilet repeatedly&#8230;hey Judge Low&#8230;the toilet was real too.</li>
<li>they took clamps and inserted a video camera inside a VERY PREGNANT woman in hopes of &#8220;seeing the baby&#8221;&#8230;</li>
<li><strong>THEY ENDANGERED THE LIFE OF AN UNBORN CHILD&#8230;I wonder if the baby is okay? Have you ever wondered this? OH&#8230;.MAYBE BECAUSE THIS MOVIE WAS MADE AFTER YOUR RULING!!!!!!  THEY SHOULD ACKNOWLEDGE SPECIAL THANKS TO YOU FOR MAKING IT ALL POSSIBLE. I&#8217;M SURE THAT THEIR SICK AUDIENCE WILL QUICKLY TIRE OF THIS TOO AND DEMAND MORE AND MORE EXTREME&#8230;AND THANKS TO YOUR NO LIMITS AS LONG AS IT&#8217;S BEEN DONE IN HOLLYWOOD APPROACH&#8230;WELL, SKY&#8217;S THE LIMIT! </strong></li>
<li>More and more but I could not watch&#8230;and what I saw was not even in their &#8220;extreme category&#8221;&#8230;</li>
<li>Most got paid NOTHING&#8230;THERE&#8217;S NO TRACES OF NOTHING. The defenses claims of &#8220;5000.00&#8243; are ludacris! My friend recieved 150.00 after the &#8220;talent agency Diverse Talents&#8221; took it&#8217;s cut&#8230;oh&#8230;and yes, this &#8220;talent&#8221; agency she later found out was owned by Randy Price the same owner as Sweet Entertainment Group.  </li>
</ol>
<p><strong>What these men do in front of the camera is inhumane and cruel.</strong> IMAGINE OFF CAMERA?  Would you tolerate these men <strong>dunking a dog’s head in the toilet as</strong> <strong>punishment</strong> as acceptable as seen in the film “Rage”? oF COURSE NOT!  You should not be a Judge, you should be ashamed. <strong>And Canadians everywhere, especially women, children, and anyone else incapable of defending themselves should be scared</strong>. I do not sleep better at night knowing that you have <strong>changed the standards of our decency laws</strong> and allowed this case to set a new precedent of decency for Canadians. The torture these women experienced was REAL and this company did not get it’s new recruits at any BDSM parties…those parties have “safe” words and are usually attended by curiosity seekers. Have you ever been to one of these parties? I would urge to attend and see that what goes on there is certainly not anywhere near what happens in those eleven films. No Judge Low, what happened in those films happened to REAL everyday women like my friend&#8230;not HOLLYWOOD ACTRESSES AS SEEN IN AMERICAN PSYCHO. The pain was real and there were no &#8220;cut, take 25&#8243; . No instead these women were alone in a room with these men, with a CAMCORDER! I don&#8217;t know about you&#8230;but if I had been in that position&#8230;I might&#8217;ve thought I made the fatal mistake of my life and had been tricked by a very smart psychopathic pervert.    </p>
<p>i&#8217;m curious Judge Low, DID YOU WATCH…the one where they take medical “clamps” which are typically used during a woman’s pap smear exam to look for signs of cervical cancer…well in their latest Blockbusters…they take a <strong>PREGNANT WOMAN and insert a camera inside of her to see if they can see THE BABY</strong>. <strong>Now that’s something I haven’t seen in a HOLLYWOOD MOVIE…not yet anyway…but with your new standards of Canadian moral decency…it might be “Coming Soon”.</strong>    And aren’t many of these women deserving of the next Academy Award…after all as stated by the defence attorney Paul Kent-Snowsell…this was &#8220;little more than theatrics&#8221;. I don’t know about you…but those performances if as Mr Kent-Snowsell says…well, MOVE OVER JODIE FOSTER, because you won&#8217;t be cast in the remake of The Accused&#8230;these women in these 11 vidoes are far far far far superior to your acting ability. Isn&#8217;t amazing that they managed such realism when all this was &#8220;little more than theatrics&#8221; as the Defense attorney stated. He stood on the soap box of &#8220;free sheech&#8221; BS BS BS BS BS&#8230;. it&#8217;s all about MONEY! Hey Judge Low, what&#8217;s next for you to legalize and set new precendents for&#8230;SNUFF films (that&#8217;s outlawed movies where real people are filmed dying)&#8230;will Sweet Entertainment Group regress to this after numbing it&#8217;s audience to the effects of shoving a woman&#8217;s head in the toilet as punshiment for infidelity&#8230;and then urinating in her mouth as this same punishment.  After all Judge Low&#8230;people are killed in Hollywood movies so therefore it must be okay? I pray you never ever have the opportunity to rule on any more issues.</p>
<p>The police conducted 2 raids on this company. These types of horrific films were not previously allowed in Canada&#8230;now thanks to you I must wonder to what level of perversion and desensitization to violence our society will escalate.</p>
<p>JUDGE LOW, WHAT YOU HAVE NOW ALLOWED TO BE CONSIDERED WITHIN THE SPECTRUM OF OUR MORAL DECENCY LAWS WAS TOO DISGUSTING AND DISTURBING TO EVEN BE CALLED PORNOGRAPHY. Judge Low you have opened the doors to a whole new level of danger for women and children. Pedophiles are rejoicing as I&#8217;m sure you will be legalizing kiddie porn next.  </p>
<p>If any other women have taken part in the obsene cruelty of Sweet Entertainment were victims… please call the Vancouver Police</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>I am writing to express my outrage. Recently a good friend of mine broke down and confessed to me the torture she experienced at the hands of Randy Price of Sweet Entertainment and Diverse Talent in Vancouver BC. Simply put, she was cooerced and coned and tricked into signing a consent form BEFORE the torture. Why not sign a consent form before AND after if their practices are little more than &#8220;theatrics&#8221; as claimed by the defense lawyer Kent Snowsell (appropriate last name for this sell job The Honourable Judge R.R. Low obviously received).  Sadly my friend just heard about this court case that took place in 2002. My friends ordeal is still going on today. The pain of humiliation and degradation she sufferred at the hands of four men. Randy Price, Stephen Lyons, Reyfenel Damasco (Ray Ray) and Geoff Baker (aka Tom Sweet) lied and deceived and commited acts of torture on a young, barely legal lady.</p>
<p>How dare the &#8220;Honourable Justice&#8221; R. R. Low claim that the violence and humiliation suffered by these women at the hands of these four men be deemed &#8220;tolerant&#8221;.</p>
<p>I urge you all to read the following and discover how this company and one &#8220;Honourable Justicce&#8221; R.R. Low want to change the standards of Canadian (how about human being) standards of decency. <a href="http://www.straight.com/article/unprecedented-obscene-video-case-in-court">http://www.straight.com/article/unprecedented-obscene-video-case-in-court</a></p>
<p>In this article you will read about this company Sweet Entertainment Group headed by Randy Price dehumanizing and torturing women. They will claim its within the standards of BDSM play but I beg to differ. My friend was pushed into cooperating or else. How confident would you feel thinking you were signing up for something &#8220;normal&#8221; and being NAKED in a room with 4 adult men. Where can you hide your bear spray to prevent attack&#8230;or hide a key to jab someone with in self defence. I don&#8217;t know about the rest of you&#8230;but if I were standing naked in a room with 4 men&#8230;I wouldn&#8217;t have much ability to object either.</p>
<p>This case was a new benchmark in obsence. We must express our outrage&#8230;how dare these people judge what is decent by COMPARING IT TO HOLLYWOOD MOVIES LIKE AMERICAN PSYCHO ETC.  Newsflash for you &#8221;Honourable Justice&#8221; R.R.Low&#8230;HOLLYWOOD IS MAKE BELIEVE! When people are electrocuted, poked, prodded, pee&#8217;d on and in, beaten and whipped&#8230;.THE MOANS AND CRYING AND PAIN IS REAL. I wonder if the &#8220;Honourable Justice&#8221; R. R. Low would  take offence if I shot someone&#8230;.that happens in Hollywood  TOO. If I was holding a cam corder and had my murder victim &#8220;sign&#8221; a waiver prior to my shooting them&#8230;would I too be able to change the standards of decency and set a new precedent.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:justify;"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-959" title="Quality Fourth edition" src="http://rplib.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/quality-fourth-edition1.jpg" alt="Quality Fourth edition" width="221" height="290" />Quality Engineering is a subject whose applications can be found in various industries, including manufacturing or service industry where knowing how the company is performing and taking the necessary actions to rectify any discrepancies is essential for its survival. This book <em>by </em>Summers gives a good basic introduction to the field of Quality Engineering, and contains a number of examples and workings to give you a good grasp of the subject and foundation for further readings.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">This book is particularly relevant for students from <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Diploma in Industrial and Operations Management</span></strong> who is taking <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">E332 Quality Control</span></strong> module. Some of the topics that will be covered include: Control Charts, Process Capability, Design of Experiments and many more. Statistics is an essential component in the field of Quality Control, and with the numerous examples contained in the book, readers can expect to practise on the statistical concepts for a good understanding of the subject.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">I came across this book when I was in second year of my studies. Being interested in the field of Quality and curious about the subject then, I took it up and started reading it. I have to say that even though this book doesn’t cover as much as some other Quality Control books do, however, it had definitely given me a good basic introduction to the subject and provided me with some prior knowledge during my Quality Control lesson. Nevertheless, this book suits everyone who wishes to have an idea of what Quality Engineering is about before pursuing deeper into the subject.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">This book has worked for me, and I’m sure it will do you good too. Good luck!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:justify;"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-950" title="Statistics for dummies" src="http://rplib.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/statistics-for-dummies.jpg" alt="Statistics for dummies" width="218" height="279" />Statistics has always been one of the most avoided subjects by a lot of people. Not only it requires a lot of thinking and calculation, being able to apply it to many different cases, it has also tricky. Hence, this book is written to guide you.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">This book is suitable for students taking <strong>Diploma in Industrial and Operations Management, Diploma in Civil Aviation, Diploma in Supply Chain Management</strong> and some other courses in Republic Polytechnic that require statistics. For instance, this book prepares you for <strong>“E214-4 Statistical Methods for Engineering”</strong> module where you can learn about different <strong>test statistics here (t-test, z-test, etc), how to compare sample data from two different populations, and more about probability.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">I didn’t read all of the content of this book, but a lot of the topics written have been very helpful when I was solving my problem in the module. Not only it is an “understandable lesson” to me, it is also equipped with example questions which made me understand how to apply the concepts better.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">For those who deal with statistics, please do not hesitate. Come down to library today as there is only one copy of this book in the library. Have an enjoyable time learning statistics!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Det är ute med mig nu.. garanterat. Det är kört.<br />
Hostan har ändrat sig under kvällen. Bara så där&#8230; huxflux<br />
Bara på några timmar så har den ökat och hostan är på annat sätt.<br />
Tidigare så var den tung, tung, tung och satt långt inne<br />
och jag hostade mest då jag lagt mig. Knappt någonting på dagen.<br />
Nu är den &#8220;Lättare&#8221; och sen så får jag upp en massa skit&#8230; Bluäääk!<br />
Sen har jag då börjat hosta mera&#8230; Mysko.<br />
Antagligen så har jag fått en ny infektion på den gamla&#8230;<br />
Så nu hostar man väl snart dygnet runt&#8230;<br />
Jaja&#8230; så kan det gå ibland!!<br />
Så länge jag inte tappar förståndet så må jag väl ha lite hosta.<br />
Jag kanske blir en sådan tvångshostkroniker på kuppen..<br />
Då ska man iaf inte gå på föreläsningar eller bio..<br />
Då blir man väl lynchad&#8230; Haha</p>
<p>Men det suger&#8230; vill sova på nätterna faktiskt<br />
Utan att vakna av allt hostande i min imaginära säng.<br />
Ja den som är 160&#8230; och har dubbla madrasser<br />
som typ en&#8230; Continentalsäng eller vad dom nu heter. Medelmjuk.<br />
Dunbolster, stora underbara kuddar i massor&#8230; ja ni förstår.<br />
Att det sen är en smal soffa som jag ligger på.. säger vi ingenting om.<br />
<em>Drömma är skönt&#8230;</em></p>
<p>Hanna var trött idag&#8230; hon somnade vid 20 tiden.<br />
Hon gäspade stort redan när jag hämtade henne från fritte.<br />
Marcus la sig inte långt efter&#8230; Han har varit lite smågnällig.<br />
Så där småirriterad  och olustig i ett par dagar.<br />
Dom stora grabbsen verkar vara sega dom med&#8230;<br />
Bara dom inte är trötta och gnälliga för att dom börjar bli sjuka..<br />
Tycker mig också höra en och annan hostattack då och då.<br />
<em>Nu håller vi alla tummar så att barnen håller sig friska</em>.</p>
<p>Sa till en av grabbarna i Söndags att det kanske kommer <a href="http://www.expressen.se/Nyheter/1.1767280/vintern-ar-har-rakna-med-sno" target="_blank">snö</a> i veckan.<br />
Hanna var i ett annat rum man hon snappade upp det.<br />
Sen dess har hon tjatat om<a href="http://www.svd.se/nyheter/inrikes/artikel_3748043.svd" target="_blank"> snö</a>&#8230;<br />
Hon tog fram sin overall och pussade på den&#8230; Haha<br />
Hon vill verkligen att det ska komma snö så nu får det göra det också.<br />
Hon blir ju så glad över några flingor..<br />
Hon tjuter av lycka&#8230; som många andra barn.. dom flesta säkerligen.<br />
Det är en tjusning med den första snön&#8230; eller hur??</p>
<p>Klippte håret på Elias igår kväll&#8230;<br />
Ja jäklar vad tjockt hår han har grabben&#8230;<br />
Duschar han så blir överhåret blött men det är torrt under.<br />
Det tog ju sin lilla stund att klippa av hans kalufs..<br />
Det vart ju en helt annan kille som kikade fram under pälsmössan..Haha<br />
Skulle gärna skicka alla grabbarna till frissan..<br />
Eftersom min rygg tar storstryk när jag klipper ungarna..<br />
Står ju i en konstig ställning hela tiden.<br />
Men det kostar ju money och sådant har vi inte så mycket av.<br />
Pengarna behövs till att mätta ett antal munnar med&#8230;<br />
Nu står båda Johannes och Marcus på tur för klippning..<br />
Idag så pallade jag inte klippa så det blir väl i morgon.<br />
Det är väl bara preparera sig med dubbla doser värkpilurer&#8230;<br />
och en stor dos vilja.. det kommer man långt med =)</p>
<p>Ja ni ser&#8230;<br />
Man är inte bara mamma man är frisör också&#8230; =)</p>
<p>Jag skulle verkligen&#8230; alltså verkligen behöva ett jobb.<br />
Men Köping är ju en varslad stad så här är det svårt.<br />
Pendla till Västerås är ju en möjlighet&#8230;<br />
Men då måste det vara ett heltidsjobb som ger hyfsad lön<br />
För jobba deltid och pendla kostar för mycket.<br />
vill ju gärna behålla lite av lönen ju.<br />
Ja sen så måste det vara dagtid..<br />
Har ingen barnpassning på kvällar och helger.<br />
Men någonting måste det ju finnas för mig här i Köping.<br />
Är inte ett dugg kräsen faktiskt&#8230;<br />
Snart är julen här och jag ser mig själv&#8230; som situationen är nu<br />
på ruinens brant. Hualigen&#8230; en jul till, så här, lockar inte speciellt.<br />
Men det går som med allting annat ju&#8230; så är det bara.<br />
Sen tar det en 6 månader att återhämta sig..<br />
Lagom till semestern&#8230; och sen är det kört igen.. Haha<br />
Fan, det är ju ett heltidsjobb med att hålla sig flytande ju.<br />
Synd att man inte får någon lön&#8230; =)</p>
<p>Jag har ju Mina vackra värdefulla ungar&#8230;<br />
Det är ju dom som räknas&#8230; och får mig att gå framåt.<br />
Det är dom som ger mig hopp..<br />
Och som jag sa i Expressens &#8220;Fattigartikel&#8221; i somras att:<br />
<em>Vi står på kö&#8230; Det är våran tur snart&#8221;</em><br />
Ja så är det ju&#8230; någon gång är det ju våran tur att ha det ok<br />
som ekonomiskt&#8230; någon gång.<br />
Tills dess så är det bara se glad ut och gilla läget =)<br />
Och jag klagar inte&#8230; konstaterar bara att så här är det =)</p>
<p>Onsdag i morgon&#8230;<br />
Det är ju attans vad det går fort fram nu&#8230;<br />
Snart är helgen här och sen kommer härliga underbara Måndag.<br />
Måndag är faktiskt en dag jag gillar attans bra..<br />
Efter en helg med vilda huliganer så är ju Måndagen bra att ha.<br />
Det är ju första skoldagen för veckan och man kan få andas ut<br />
ja i alla fall ett par tre minuter&#8230;Haha<br />
Det är ingen som ropar <em>&#8220;Mammaaa kooom&#8230;&#8221;</em> eller <em>&#8220;Jag vill ha&#8230;&#8221;</em><br />
Utan det är så, så tyst&#8230; Ljuvligt ju&#8230; Haha</p>
<p>Nu ska jag göra lite nytta&#8230;<br />
Få undan disken och hänga tvätt&#8230;<br />
<em>The Show must go on&#8230;</em></p>
<p>Sköt om er och var snälla mot varandra där ute.<br />
Använd många hjärtan i orden till er själva<br />
och varandra&#8230; om er själva och om varandra.<br />
Gör det, så blir livet lite finare&#8230; lite vackrare&#8230; att leva =)</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:justify;"><a href="http://rplib.files.wordpress.com/2010/01/final-year-project.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1221" title="final year project" src="http://rplib.files.wordpress.com/2010/01/final-year-project.jpg?w=214&#038;h=283" alt="" width="214" height="283" /></a>Hey Year 3 students, are you rushing to complete your FYP (Final Year Project) reports now? Perhaps you are just a Year 2 student, who is starting to plan your FYP. Then I have just the perfect book for you! Head down to our RP library, north entrance, and locate this book “Final year project report”.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">I find that this is an extremely helpful book as it provides a clear structure on how to write a formal project report. It also goes down to details such as length of the report, spacing and fonts requirement. This book also talked about the difference between an abstract and an introduction, general grammar, language and style tips. I think most of us are not so sure on how to write a beautiful report. Fear not, help is here! Read this book and it will help you clear your doubts and prepare a satisfactory report or improve on your existing one.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">This book is nicely divided into 5 chapters, which follow the flow of a report. In Chapter 1, it indicates the basic requirements of the project, which gives you a primary understanding on report writing. Chapter 2 is the main section, which talks about the framework and elements in a report. Following that, it shows you the formatting and the final draft. Last but not least, it provides a sample of a final year report for your reference.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">This is not a thick or complex book, but it covers a lot of areas. It is definitely worth your time to read it.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"> </p>
