Kasa Companies, Elektro Anlagen join to deliver improvement capabilities
Kasa Companies and Elektro Anlagen have joined to create Kasa Anlagen in order to establish manufacturing improvement capabilities worldwide.
Kasa Companies has announced a new joint venture with India-based Elektro Anlagen to form Kasa Anlagen, established to deliver manufacturing improvement capabilities to customers worldwide. The new Kasa Anlagen engineering, manufacturing, and sales operation center—based in Chennai, India—is responsible for all engineering, manufacturing, and sales in Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia for both partner companies.
Combining Kasa Companies' and Elektro Anlagen's expertise in quality, premium service and fast response times, Kasa Anlagen reportedly better serves global customers by delivering reduced lead times and improved commercial terms and prices. These capabilities, along with Kasa Anlagen's Optimum Techno Commercial Solutions offering, unite to create a turnkey provider of manufacturing improvement products and services for the global industry.
In this joint venture, Kasa Companies will reportedly hold a 30 percent stake in the company in the beginning, and have the option to increase its stake to 50 percent over a period of time. The balance will be held by the promoters led by Sundarram Balaji, who is the Managing Director of Elektro Anlagen.
"In the Americas, our company has focused on creative solutions and assisting our customers in improving their manufacturing and process systems," said Dan Stutterheim, President of Kasa Companies. "We hope to continue this quality performance in India."
For this venture, Kasa Companies required a business partner with three distinct qualities including trust, a customer-driven organization, and a desire to provide total automation solutions. After reviewing a total of 13 potential partner companies, Kasa Companies selected Elektro Anlagen based upon the company's superior qualifications and ability to best support Kasa Companies' future goals, including global initiatives.
In discussing their new partnership, M.S. Balaji, CEO of Elektro Anlagen, said, "This joint venture represents a strategic move to unite two innovative companies that will change the face of manufacturing improvement across the globe."

I absolutely love this blush it gives out the prettiest color and is perfect for any time of day and style of makeup
Initially I wasn't too sure if I liked this blush yet have been able to make a more accurate judgement once I had the right foundation underneath.
It throws off a more peachy brownish colour on me which I love.
It applies lightly yet builds up slowly which I also like & leaves a healthy natural look.
I have used it as an eyeshadow when I'm in a rush & just want to apply something neutral on either my lids or edge of my brow bone.
The packaging is very average yet isn't flimsy enough to break. I love the brush as it seems to give me more control on wear I place it.
I recommend this blush & for $4, I will definitely repurchase.
Update: I've been using this as a eyeshadow base & love the colour. I apply it to my lid & crease & apply a cream or beige on my brow bone & it looks lovely for a natural/day look. Having a better foundation underneath makes this blush so much better on me. With these two points in mind & for the price I've added one lippie.

i love it! its looks like nothing much in the pan, but onee you put it on your cheeks, it instantly gives you a warm glow. i think its a perfect year-round blush, too! :)
another plus: its wears for a surprisingly long time.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I was walking around the makeup section at Target looking at different blushes. I am usually not a big fan of Rimmel, but I stopped to look anyway. Santa Rose immediately caught my eye. It looked like such a pretty color in the pan. I like lighter colored blushes that give off a light flush on the cheek vs. darker ones. So I was little worried about the color being too dark, but decided to give it a try. I am so glad I did. This color is absolutely beautiful! It gives a perfect flush of natural color and adds definition to the cheeks. This is definitely my go-to for blush from now on!
I liked this, just didn't love it. I liked the color, but I found to get enough color onto my cheeks I had to scrub my brush into it like a mad woman. Just seemed wasteful that I had to pile it onto my brush to get the color.
Holy cow, I don't write many reviews, but I'm amazed by this blush and had to add to the raves on here. I recently bought it as a cheaper alternative for travel to my go to daytime blush Nars Douceur. I never though I would say this, but this blush outshines Douceur by a mile, and at 1/6 the price. It looks like a boring light pink in the pan but on the cheeks it's a gorgeous neutral peach, neither too warm nor too cool, goes with everything, and simultaneously sculpts and highlights my cheeks and gives them a glow. Good stuff!

Got this blush based on the reviews and I really do love it. I can easily see this being one of my favorites. I do not wear a lot of blush because I have some redness in my cheeks already, but after applying foundation I like to apply just a little. I have pale skin also. This blush applys a nice, muted pink color to my face. I think the color is lighter than what is actually in the pictures, but it's still dark enough that it will show up on you face. You really can't overdue it with this blush, which is nice. Will buy again!
Holy Grail Blush!!!! This works wonders on my aging, pale, freckly complexion which also has a touch of rosacea that normally looks awful with blush.
This looks polished, classic and refined. Seems to tone down the red bits, and liven up my face without making me look clownish or like I'm suffering a high fever!
I brush it on with my own blush brush as the one that it comes with is useless, and suddenly I look younger and healthier. Great blush. Never seems to go on too heavy either. Very sheer application, but just enough to make my face look finished and polished.
4 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I've used this for months and I love it! I'm an NW 15 and it adds the perfect amount of color to my skin! It's not too shimmery or overpowering in any way. Very nice pigmentation and affordable. I'll most definitely continue to repurchase :)
After running out of my beloved NARS Orgasm, I decided to give this a whirl. I have to admit, my affair with Orgasm ended because after prolonged use, the "shimmer" to me seemed like pure glitter. I couldn't stand it anymore.
Although this looks odd in the packaging, it looks AMAZING on my skin. I am NC15/NC20 at MAC. This is pigmented, but buildable - which I adore. I had to put a lot of work into blending out Orgasm to make it look at least somewhat natural. With Santa Rose however, I can get the perfect, natural glow with minimal effort. Brilliant.

Aeros Lose To Rockford: A Comedy Tonight
The Aeros lost to the Rockford IceHogs tonight 4-1. That's the second loss in a row, and the second on this four game road trip. As Andrew and Heather wrote below, Joe Fallon's injured and Matt Hackett's with the Wild because the brittle twins that play in goal for the Wild are, as you guessed, injured.
The result was that the Aeros threw a guy just literally out of college between the pipes tonight -- he's got just two games of ECHL experience -- named Scott Greenham. Now it would be easy to put the loss on Greenham since Rockford did score four goals. But then you look at this stat: Rockford out shot Houston 41-18, including 16-2 in the second period. Yes, you saw that right, 41-18, and it becomes a wonder that Rockford only scored three times on Greenham -- the fourth goal was an empty-netter.
That leads to the question of what happened to that offense we were bragging about just last week. There have been no roster changes. The lines haven't changed. But the Aeros can no longer score any goals. It's ridiculous, really ridiculous. What makes it more ridiculous is that the Wild's Matt Cullen broke a finger in tonight's loss to Buffalo (shocking, right? The Wild losing, and a Wild getting hurt) which will necessitate the Wild calling up one of the Aeros forwards, which in itself is funny seeing as how the Aeros forwards have forgotten how to shoot the damn puck.
However, despite the loss, the Aeros are still in fourth place. Yes, that's right, they're still in fourth because just about everybody below them in the standings also lost tonight. So for one more day, the Aeros hang on to fourth place with 76 points. The Heat, Americans, and Rivermen are tied for fifth with 75 points, and the Checkers are hanging onto the eighth spot with 74 points. The Rampage and Monsters are tied for ninth with 73 points, and the Admirals are in 11th with 70 points.
Yep, that's right, a total of six points separate the fourth spot from the 11th spot in the standings. And we thought it was ridiculously close last season.
The Aeros play in Chicago on Sunday afternoon. Peoria, Abbotsford, and Charlotte also play on Sunday. So it's conceivable that, come tomorrow night, the Aeros could be sitting in seventh place.
Like I said, it's so sad, it's funny. Which leads to this video from a classic Broadway musical/movie of the 1960s called A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum. So here's the opening song, "A Comedy Tonight."
(By the way, my apologies to Joe Fallon. I wrote about him in the Press on Friday, so of course he was injured.)

So, in other words, don't expect a win Sunday, either.
Instead, do something more entertaining like give the cat a bath.

...come to think of it, it's really would be a shame if the Aeros miss the playoffs simply because Backstrom is too soft to play with whatever he "tweaked" a couple of weeks ago. What is he, some sort of freakin' soccer player?

You Aeros fans are about to find out that Greenham is the real deal. He was a stud for four years at Alaska, and is also one of the classiest players you'll ever meet. Ask anybody affiliated with the Nanooks program or the CCHA in general and they'll tell you the same thing. I'd be surprised if he spends much more time in the ECHL.
Enjoy him while he's there.
- March 28, 2012 at 5:35 PM
It's nice to hear such a good report about Greenham. The Aeros are in the AHL, not the ECHL so he pretty much skipped a league to come to Houston. Since the games he played were away games, we didn't get to see him play, but we lost. I hope he returns to the ECHL and gets lots of great experience so he will be ready next time he's called up and we'll get to see him play the way you've described.

MEMS for MEMS
Phil Kinnane | February 16, 2012
One of the things I do at COMSOL is to make some of the images we use in our marketing material. I was working on a picture of a piezoelectric microtweezer for an ad that would be used for our MEMS Module, as the one you can see below. That's when I started wondering what these microtweezers actually do.
Searching the web, I saw what a group at Purdue was doing with them. These tweezers are, in essence, MEMS for MEMS.
While I've always been aware that microtweezers were great for capturing blood cells and the like, I never really thought they could be used to assemble the small moving parts in things like MEMS accelerometers and gyroscopes. And this is being done commercially. An associate professor at Purdue explains it well when he uses an analogy of microtweezers moving micro Lego blocks into place. If you're interested in MEMS, here is the article that I came across.

PRETORIA, South Africa — Coldblooded, planned murder or a terrible, heartbreaking accident? The competing versions of the killing of model and law school graduate Reeva Steenkamp by her superstar boyfriend, Oscar Pistorius, offered in court Tuesday were compelling, each in its own way.
Pistorius, the double amputee athlete who competed in last year's London Olympic Games, wept so uncontrollably that at one point Chief Magistrate Desmond Nair had to pause the proceedings so the runner could compose himself.

Contributing bloggers discuss a variety of topics geared toward the transit and motorcoach sectors.
As funding from state and federal agencies continues to be more difficult to secure, local transit systems have found a variety of new partners that not only help pay for new hours of service, but can also provide opportunities for transit agencies to restructure service in parts of the community. These partnerships can also result in improving the transit agency's image and relevance in a community, and improved quality of service.

Annual Salary Survey
Participate in the 2013 Salary Survey
In a year when manufacturing continued to lead the economic rebound, it makes sense that plant manager bonuses rebounded. Plant Engineering's annual Salary Survey shows both wages and bonuses rose in 2012 after a retreat the year before.
Average salary across all job titles for plant floor management rose 3.5% to $95,446, and bonus compensation jumped to $15,162, a 4.2% increase from the 2010 level and double the 2011 total, which showed a sharp drop in bonus.

Party Recap...
Marisa and Shannon, cousins born just weeks apart, shared their birthdays with extended family. Pink, blue and silver, their mutual favorite colors, set the party theme. Both of the girls love Chinese Food, so take-out was an easy decision for dinner.
The birthday cakes reflected the girls' unique personalities while keeping in the party color scheme. The rest if the dessert menu included Oreo Pops, cupcakes, sugar cookies and chocolate chip cookies. Sponge candy was the final treat, Grandma's favorite!
A DIY cupcake stand kept the color scheme front and center; step by step instructions are available on my blog.
Party Highlights
Best Moment
Both girls enjoyed having their own cake and candles to blow out!

is enhancing its menu with additional items and greater variety based on customer feedback.
Santa Cruz County loves eight-week-old Sid's, as was demonstrated at the Hop N' Barley Festival in Scotts Valley. In a race against Bruno's and Cowboy Bar & Grill, Sid's won "Best BBQ" with its 12-hour smoked beef brisket.
Even so, co-owner Dave Paradise said that the restaurant is growing and making changes based on what his customers want, including some price reductions and new menu items.
Instead of Matt's famous chili, Sid's will offer two different chilies to provide an alternate chili with a milder kick. The flavor and what's in it is staying the same, but "the kick is one change we are making," said Paradise.
Sid's Smokin' Hot Chili will be the old recipe of chili. The other chili, which will be less hot, can be eaten on its own or used with other dishes including chili burgers, chili dogs and chili mac 'n' cheese.
The popular mac 'n' cheese dishes baked in the pizza oven will be taken to another level. In addition to the lowered prices (from $7.99 to $5.99), new variations of pesto mac and chili 'n' cheese are sure to get customers hooked, said Paradise.
Inspired from the chicken pesto pizza, the pesto mac will be a combination of pesto with the cheese and macaroni, said Paradise. The chili 'n' cheese will feature the new chili loaded on top of the mac 'n' cheese. For any of the mac dishes, customers can add pulled pork, brisket or chicken to make it an even heartier meal.
Other new items include a Reuben sandwich with house-cured pastrami and a BBQ chicken salad that started out as a special and will be a regular item.
Soups of the day will be featured, including corn chowder, BBQ bean soup and split pea soup with smoked ham. Paradise said his friend Patrick Saylor will make his famous split pea soup as a guest chef after the California Beer Festival July 28.
The head chef changed from the former head chef of SmoQe BBQ, Matt Perez, to Anthony Hughes, who was previously part of the management team at Sid's.
Sid's serves the same kind of food as with a focus on smokehouse meat and sandwiches. Specialty mac 'n' cheese, salads and burgers are customer favorites as well.
Open Sunday through Wednesday 11 a.m. to 9 p.m., Thursday 11 a.m. to 9:30 p.m., and Friday and Saturday 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. The address is 10110 Soquel Dr., Aptos. Call 831-662-2227 for information or take-out. Visit the website to view the menu.

The themes of Season 5 of The Style Network's "Jerseylicious" are pretty much the same as those of the past four seasons, as described by castmate Jackie Bianchi.
"It's about love, friendships, family, drama, anxiety, backstabbing," she said. "It's basically our lives outside of the salon."
Several "Jerseylicious" stars gathered at Route 46 Lounge in Totowa Monday night for a premiere party for their show, which depicts hair stylists at work in the Green Brook salon The Gatsby. The castmates were joined by other reality television stars such as Ashley Holmes and Kim G. from "The Real Housewives of New Jersey."
Bianchi, a Montville Township High School graduate, said this season of the show will explore more of the home lives of the stars and follow them on their personal journeys.
"I think that's what's going to make this season the best," Bianchi's best friend and castmate Olivia Blois Sharpe said.
Viewers will watch Blois Sharpe, also a Montville Township High School graduate, go through relationship ups and downs in her love life. What the season will not feature as much, Blois Sharpe said, is the drama, as far as she is concerned.
"I'm not really involved in the drama anymore," she said.
Blois Sharpe and stylist Tracy DiMarco have had a tumultuous relationship and one that has spanned four seasons, at times culminating into catfights complete with hair-pulling and fast food-throwing. But Blois Sharpe said viewers will instead get to watch DiMarco have drama with Gigi Liscio. DiMarco and Bianchi may also have their moments of drama on the show, including the reunion episode filmed last week.
"You really get to see the real side of Tracy," Bianchi said. "I will never talk to her again."
While viewers may see more about who the stars really are in this season's show, what may not be seen is their background and the things that helped mold them into the adults they are. Bianchi and Blois Sharpe said they still have family in Montville, although neither of the ladies currently live there, and that they head back into town often. Sometimes they visit Posh Boutique and when they were in high school, they would frequent Joe's Pizzeria. Where is their favorite place to eat when in Montville?
"Montville Diner," they both said at the same time.
Blois Sharpe and Bianchi both went to beauty school at Christine Valmy. Bianchi said she loved to go 7-Eleven, although she's afraid to go now because she'd surely bump into someone she knows.
"Jerseylicious" now airs on Mondays at 8 p.m. on The Style Network.

With the 2012 presidential election over, attention nows turns to the inevitable shuffling of personnel in the Obama administration. Chief among the vacancies will be at the helm of the State Department, where Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton has indicated her intent to retire.
After heavy media coverage speculating on the appointment of Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry, rumors have more recently coalesced around U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice for the position. Rice's qualifications are difficult to contest. In addition to her four years at Turtle Bay, she has stints in the Clinton administration on the National Security Council and as an assistant secretary for African affairs. Moreover, she would be following the path of Madeleine Albright, who made a similar move from the U.N. post in President Clinton's second term.

Your Guide To Unforgettable New England Beach Vacations
New England beach vacations involve an enchanting assortment of sights, sounds and smells. The rustic, bleached-wood charm of beachside cottages. The soothing, deep-throated rumble of lobster boats returning with the day's catch. The crispness of North Atlantic breezes whisking in over the dunes. Even during the winter, the region is a truly stunning place to visit. Boasting 115 beaches, The Cape's wide sandy stretches and gently shelving tides are ideal for families, couples, corporate retreats and memorable weddings. Boasting more than 3,000 miles of coastline, it is no surprise that Maine is home to some of New England's most stunning beaches. For a real local experience, families can join a Lobster Boat Tour for the opportunity to catch their own lobster and hear seafaring tales from the boat's Captain. For a beach vacation with a difference, travel to the beautiful sandy beaches that border Vermont's Lake Champlain, New England's largest lake. The lake offers plenty of fun activities for all to enjoy including swimming, kayaking, hiking, biking and boating and there are a number of small islands to be explored.

PINEHURST — Faced with forecasts in the high 90s and heat indexes expected to soar into triple digits throughout this weeks U.S. Womens Open, the U.S. Golf Association took measures Tuesday to assure spectator safety.
The USGA will give each fan a voucher for a free bottle of water throughout the tournament, set up hydration stations throughout the course and will keep the main and satellite merchandise tents fully open to provide air-conditioned respite for fans, instead of reducing capacity as originally planned.
All four first-aid centers on the course will remain active, and mobile EMS units will continue to patrol on bicycle. Several fans required treatment for dehydration and heat exhaustion at local hospitals during the U.S. Open and that number is expected to increase this week with the heat. At least one girl required intravenous fluids Tuesday.
I hope people take precautions for the heat, but we are prepared for it should it become an issue, said emergency medical services supervisor Tommy Cook.
The National Weather Service forecast calls for highs of at least 95 degrees each day of the tournament, with the humidity pushing heat indexes above 100 degrees considerably warmer conditions than last week.
For those unavoidably stuck on the course, there are few options. Marshals in sunny positions will rotate into the shade every half-hour.
Players, meanwhile, already are preparing for the stifling conditions by dialing back some of their preparation heading into Thursdays opening round.
I played 18 holes (Monday). Ill just play nine today and nine Wednesday, Lexi Thompson said. Take it easy the rest of the day and not wear myself out. But I hydrate, pretty much at least one (bottle of) water a hole. Yeah, hydration is extremely important out here, especially when its over 90 degrees.

Gov. Sonny Perdue's state technology privatization initiative in Georgia (reported on here) has hit a bump in the road:
When Gov. Sonny Perdue took office in 2003, one of his first acts was scrapping an ambitious $1.8 billion plan to outsource the state's computer networking and telecommunications.
The plan, inherited from Gov. Roy Barnes, bothered Perdue because only one company ended up bidding. Now, after years and millions of dollars in consulting fees to try again, he faces a similar problem.
In December, Perdue announced the Georgia Technology Authority was seeking two contracts worth a total of $1.2 billion to $1.4 billion and lasting five to seven years. [. . .]
Initially, it seemed to work, with three large companies expressing interest: IBM, Northrop Grumman and EDS.
In recent months, two companies have withdrawn, leaving the state with just one bidder, just like in 2003.
Several months ago, Northrop Grumman dropped out, and late last month, EDS notified the authority it was dropping out.
With only one bidder for the two enormous contracts, the authority now is put in that familiar awkward position: The state can either start contract talks with IBM, dramatically reducing its negotiating power, or it can scrap the deal.
If Perdue withdraws the contracts, the authority must continue running computer networks for major state departments with what Perdue has described as "inefficient and ineffective technology."
The authority assumed it would get several bids, and it already has reduced its staff in anticipation of the outsourcing."
Absent further information, all I can say at this point is that these types of large-scale integration initiatives are inherently complex, as we learned from Florida. It's always worth taking a read back through the lessons learned from three of Florida's large, controversial state outsourcing projects—MyFloridaMarketPlace, People First and Project Aspire—which arose out of the state's plan to upgrade and modernize its core operational software and IT infrastructure, specifically its accounting, cash management, procurement and human resources functions. Different from Georgia in scope, yes, but similar system modernization efforts in terms of scale and complexity.
All three Florida programs required significant modifications along the way, and all have had significant development, implementation and performance-related issues (though to be fair, things have certainly improved). The state's Council on Efficient Government issued a detailed report earlier this year examining the troubled initiatives, covered in Reason's Annual Privatization Report 2008 here. It's a must-read for any policymaker or official embarking on similar efforts. Florida's experience moving from procurement to implementation can provide useful lessons to Georgia as it moves towards contract development.

Nothin' But a Hound Dog
Speak to Doc Henry about transplanting Rex's brain
No, Rex's condition is way beyond anything we can handle. He requires brain surgery, and some sophisticated cybernetics work, too."— Julie Farkas
Nothin' But a Hound Dog is a companion quest in Fallout: New Vegas.
Quick walkthroughEdit
|Side Quest: Nothin' But a Hound Dog
|Talk to The King in Freeside at the King's School of Impersonation.
|Talk to Julie Farkas about what can be done to help Rex.
|Return to the King with the news that Rex can be healed.
|Take Rex to Doctor Henry in Jacobstown to learn how he can be fixed.
|Acquire a new brain for Rex from one of the Fiends's dogs.
|Acquire a new brain for Rex from one of Old Lady Gibson's dogs.
|Acquire a new brain for Rex from one of Caesar's Legion's dogs.
|Return to Jacobstown and have Violetta's brain transplanted.
|Return to Jacobstown and have Rey's brain transplanted.
|Return to Jacobstown and have Lupa's brain transplanted.
|Reward: Rex as permanent follower
Unshakeable Tracker perk
|Reward: Rex as permanent follower
Faithful Protector perk
|Reward: Rex as permanent follower
Blood of the Legion perk
Detailed walkthroughEdit
Talk to The King in The King's School of Impersonation in Freeside. Ask him about Rex and he will tell you that something is wrong with him. He will then ask you to go to Julie Farkas, located in Old Mormon Fort. She will tell you that there is a man (Dr. Henry, in Jacobstown) who can help. You must then tell The King that Rex can be fixed. He will allow you to take Rex to Dr. Henry, who will tell you to find at least one dog brain to fix Rex. There are four possible brains to choose from:
- The first brain is at Gibson scrap yard, just north of Novac. Old Lady Gibson will ask you for 700 caps in exchange for Rey's brain. If your Barter skill is at least 70, it can be obtained for free. Or you can perform a sneak attack on Rey and take the brain off of his corpse.
- Alternatively, if you have the Lady Killer perk, Rey's brain can be obtained for free by choosing the corresponding dialogue option with Old Lady Gibson.
- The second brain is at a Fiend camp near Poseidon Gas Station, built from ruined campers (trailers). This section is populated by Fiend guard dogs, including Violetta, a boss guard dog. She and her master, Violet, must be killed to acquire this brain. Remember to keep Violet's head intact when you kill her if you plan to complete the quest Three-Card Bounty.
- The third is in The Fort, to which you gain access in the quest Render Unto Caesar. Talk to Antony about Lupa and eventually about a brain for Rex. Antony will then ask you to give Lupa an honorable death. You must fight Lupa in the arena with only a machete and no armor. Your reward will be Lupa's brain if you defeat her in a battle.
- The Fourth is not marked during the quest unless Old Lady Gibson has been killed, in which case Rey will no longer be there, and the map marker will take you to HELIOS One, to gain an NCR guard dog brain with no benefit to Rex.
Choosing to implant Rey's brain will give Rex the perk Faithful Protector, increasing his attack damage (+25 damage). Choosing to implant Violetta's brain will give Rex the perk Unshakeable Tracker, increasing his speed (+50% movement speed). Choosing to implant Lupa's brain will give Rex the perk Blood of the Legion, increasing his damage threshold (+10 DT).
It should be noted that you can only choose one.
Journal entriesEdit
|Talk to Julie Farkas about what can be done to help Rex.
|Return to the King with the news that Rex can be healed.
|Take Rex to Doctor Henry in Jacobstown to learn how he can be fixed.
|Acquire a new brain for Rex from one of Old Lady Gibson's dogs.
|(Optional) Search for an exceptional canine brain among Caesar's Legion.
|(Optional) Search for an exceptional canine brain among the Fiends.
|Quest finished
|Return to Jacobstown and have Rex's brain transplant performed.
- If you need to reset the quest at any time, use the base ID tag 001176B8.
- If you use the barter challenge against Old Lady Gibson for Rey you will not have to kill him. There will be a short scene where Old Lady Gibson quickly puts Rey down, to avoid his suffering, and the brain goes into your inventory.
- Rey can occasionally be found outside Helios One when the Courier is attempting to adjust the reflectors. Rey may be one of the hostile dogs at that time.
- When taking Rex to Doctor Henry in Jacobstown, make sure to keep to the road. If you try to take a direct path you'll find some very tough cazadores and unclimbable mountains you'll have to go around and your companions may get stuck many times on the hills. Alternatively, fast travel is a safer way.
- During this quest, even if you have completed For Auld Lang Syne, Doctor Henry will appear at Jacobstown.
- In hardcore mode, it is generally considered a good idea to transplant Lupa's brain for the additional DT due to the fact that Rex will die instead of becoming briefly unconscious.
- If the Courier has Boone as a companion and chooses to implant Rex with Lupa's brain, Boone will refuse to accompany the Courier while Rex is an active companion.
- When Old Lady Gibson lures Rey to his death, his body never appears, since he immediately disappears once you pay Gibson.
Behind the scenesEdit
"Hound Dog" is a song written by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller and was originally performed by Willie Mae "Big Mama" Thornton. Elvis Presley covered the cover version of "Hound Dog" by Freddie Bell and the Bell Boys.[1][2][3]
- pc It is possible to stealthily kill Lupa and loot Lupa's brain from her corpse. If she is successfully killed without the player being noticed, Antony may not "notice" that Lupa has died and will still give you the option to fight her in the arena for her brain. If the player accepts, it is possible to obtain a second Lupa's Brain. DO NOT DO THIS. Having 2 of the brains in your inventory will cause Dr. Henry to not recognize that you have the brain at all, making it impossible to give Rex Lupa's brain. To solve this, either revert to an earlier save, or enter "player.removeitem 0013d851 1" in the console, without the quotes. Make sure that you only have one instance of Lupa's brain. [verified]
- xbox360 If you have already killed Old Lady Gibson as well as her dogs, Rey's quest marker may change positions on the world map either showing up at Novac or Gibson scrap yard. In both cases, Rey's corpse may be stuck inside the ground, making it hard for the player to see Rey's body or even realize that the body is glitched. [verified]
- pc xbox360 Old Lady Gibson may spawn at Helios One hostile. If you don't scavenge Rey's brain its body will actually stay out back in the solar field. [verified]
- pc There is a chance, if you finish the quest by talking to Calamity rather than Henry, that the variable for Rex's brain won't be set in the quest, you'll get the ending for if you hadn't actually transplanted the brain at all. The fix for this is as follows: [verified]
- - Press ~ to bring up the console.
- - Type: set "001176B8".nTransplantResult to X
(You must type the quotes for this to work in the console)
- X is one of the following:
- 0 for no transplant ending.
- 1 for Rey's brain ending.
- 2 for Violetta's brain ending.
- 3 for Lupa's brain ending.
- That will fix the issue.
- This can also be used in comparison with the resetquest trick above. If you do a resetquest 001176B8, you'll then have to pick up the quest from The King and do setstage 001176B8 30. Follow the quest through as normal then, and once the quest is over, do the command above.
- If you're having any other problems, try this command: set "0010d8df".ReceivedTransplant to 1
- pc Upon transplanting Violetta's brain Rex's hitpoints may become set at 0/0 making him impossible to heal. [verified]
- pc Sometimes the player is unable to enter conversation with Dr. Henry. It makes this and every other quest involving Dr. Henry impossible to complete without console commands. To complete the quest via console, use the command: setstage 001176B8 100. [verified]
- pc xbox360 Stage 4 of the quest contains a grammatical mistake. It tells the player to acquire a brain from one of "Old Lady's Gibson's dogs", rather than "Old Lady Gibson's". [verified]
- pc If you complete the first part of the quest by speaking to Doctor Henry The King may act like the quest "GI Blues" is active and will say "My eyes on the street tell me you haven't paid our mutual friend Orris a visit yet. Until you do, we got nothing to talk about." [verified]

|Dolores A. Wengeler, 83
|Written by TRF Times
Thief River Falls - Dolores Arlene Wengeler, 83, died peacefully at Bethany Towers in Fargo, N.D., on Monday, January 24, 2005.
In accordance with Dolores' wishes, in lieu of a funeral service, a celebration of her life will be held at a later date.
Dolores was born on September 21, 1921, the daughter of Perry and Annette (Mickelson) Froseth, in Thief River Falls, where she graduated from Lincoln High School and lived for most of her life.
Shortly after high school, Dolores started work at Northwestern Bell Telephone Company. She married Raymond Wengeler July 21, 1945, in Thief River Falls. Ray soon after achieved his dream of buying a farm northwest of town.
While keeping his position at Thief River Co-op Creamery, Ray and Dolores both worked on the farm, providing their children with an ideal environment for their young lives. When their children reached school age, they moved back into town, to the Wengeler house which had already been home to three generations of the family. Raymond died May 2, 1972. Dolores returned to work at Northwestern Bell, retiring in 1984.
Dolores expressed her artistic talent in decorating the family home on Markley Avenue, designing and sewing beautiful clothes for her children, and preparing memorable meals and holiday celebrations. She loved children, music and animals. In her later years, she worked crossword puzzles and carefully tended several bird feeders in her yard, accompanied by her beloved dog, Buddy.
She had recently moved into assisted living at Bethany Towers, where she enjoyed playing bingo and visiting with staff and residents.
Dolores was preceded in death by her husband, her parents and her brother, Loyal Froseth.
Survivors include her four children, Barbara Nusz of Grapevine, Texas, Katherine (Craig) Olson of Moorhead, John (Rhoda) Wengeler of Thief River Falls, and Joseph Wengeler of White Bear Lake; two brothers, Perry (Arlene) Froseth of Portland, Ore., and Gordon Froseth of Sauk Center; five grandchildren and nine great- grandchildren.

But the Army, stretched thin by two wars and in desperate need of qualified intel analysts, ignored these recommendations. In the fall of 2009, Manning left for Iraq with the 10th Mountain's 2nd Brigade Combat Team, a light-infantry unit he would describe as "a bunch of hyper-masculine, trigger-happy, ignorant rednecks." Haunted by fears that he wasn't "masculine enough," as he told a friend, he began to question his gender. On leave in the U.S. during the snowy winter of 2010, he spent a few days dressed as a woman. He called his female alter ego "Breanna."
Beyond these personal issues was the fact that Manning had begun to have serious reservations. "Manning had a reason to believe the U.S. was engaged in activities that violated a number of laws, and so he made a fateful decision to expose illegality," says Thomas Drake, a former National Security Agency official who was indicted under the Espionage Act in 2010 for leaking sensitive information to the press. "That is the classic definition of a whistle-blower, and what has happened to him since is classic retaliation against someone who exposed pathological power run amok."
On a brisk day in late November 2012, Manning, accompanied by his lawyer, David Coombs, arrived at Fort George G. Meade, the stark, brick Army base outside Baltimore, to argue that his detention at the Marine Corps brig in Quantico, Virginia, where he was transferred after two months in Kuwait, amounted to illegal pretrial punishment. A diverse crowd packed the tiny courtroom: a melange of whistle-blower advocates, attorneys, activists – the latter group dressed in black T-shirts inscribed with the word TRUTH. And of the approximately 20 reporters in attendance, only a handful were from the mainstream U.S. media, which largely ignored the proceedings.
Though WikiLeaks had made news all over the planet, Manning had remained an enigma, squirreled away in military detention while his case was all but subsumed by the government's relentless pursuit of Assange. With Manning unable to speak for himself, his story had been relegated to various friends, family, free-speech advocates, human rights activists, lawyers, reporters and soldiers who'd served with him, all of whom contributed to the narrative that painted Manning as a fragile, damaged, weak individual – an emotional basket case who should never have been deployed to begin with, let alone given a top security clearance.
But the Manning who showed up at Fort Meade was not this soldier. Clad in his navy-blue dress uniform, with rimless glasses and short, neatly combed blond hair, Manning did not come off as "effeminate," as he had been so often portrayed. He didn't cry. He didn't even tremble a little bit – not even when, on the first day of his testimony, his lawyer asked him to map out on the courtroom floor a diagram of his cell at Quantico that, when he'd finished, was so tiny that Manning appeared almost large standing in the middle of it. Not even when, on the second day, the prosecutor held up the "noose" Manning had made of a pink bedsheet, and asked him if he remembered it. During one poignant moment, Coombs handed Manning a cardboardlike "suicide smock," like the one he was given to wear in lieu of clothes at Quantico, and asked him to put it on. A stiff blue contraption about 300 sizes too big, it made Manning look like a turtle.
Most of all, Manning seemed very young – a factor easily forgotten amid the larger conversations about government secrecy and WikiLeaks. He'd been just 21 years old when he'd begun perusing classified databases and saw "incredible things, awful things . . . things that belonged in the public domain, and not on some server stored in a dark room in Washington, D.C." They were internal memos laying out the sordid details of the most blood-soaked and morally questionable wars since Vietnam, conflicts whose essential contours were something that Manning, who was 13 when the U.S. went to war in Afghanistan, and 15 when it invaded Iraq, only vaguely understood.
Now he knew. And by every indication, he was horrified. "I want people to see the truth regardless of who they are, because without information, you cannot make informed decisions as a public," he told Lamo. "I feel, for some bizarre reason, it might actually change something. Or maybe I'm just young, naive and stupid."
It is sometimes difficult to recall, more than a year after the last troops departed Mesopotamia, the huge political, moral and financial morass that was the Iraq War. Launched in 2003 with an optimistic in-and-out strategy, it was an endless, grinding conflict against a resilient insurgency that killed or maimed more than 36,000 troops while costing taxpayers approximately $835 billion. By 2007, the year Manning enlisted, the Army was a study in dysfunction. VA hospitals overflowed with wounded soldiers. Countless more suffered from PTSD. Suicides soared throughout the ranks. With recruitment steadily declining, the Army lowered its standards, accepting more kids with drug, alcohol and physical problems. It recruited record numbers of non-high-school graduates, and even sunk to doubling the "moral waivers" it granted to felons. In 2008, the cost of Iraq was averaging $11 billion per month with no end in sight. By 2009, the bloodshed was such that U.S. forces, under the counterinsurgency strategy of David Petraeus, had turned to paying their former enemies not to attack them.
And yet while the war was a disaster, there was an unstated "prohibition against exposing the myth," in the words of one former high-ranking military official. This silent edict wound its way from the Pentagon to Baghdad, where, over time, it would make its way in the form of a cynical complacency to remote outposts like Forward Operating Base Hammer, where Bradley Manning began his tour in the fall of 2009. By then, recalls Peter Van Buren, a former State Department official who was posted in Iraq, much of what the U.S. was doing had become blatantly transparent. "We'd been at it for years and didn't have much to show for it," he says. "The Iraqis knew that too. They'd learned very quickly that our expectations were very low, and so they played along with the charade. Everyone was winking across the table at one another."
Manning, arguably, wasn't in on the joke. The son of a former Naval-intelligence operator, he had an almost naive belief in American power; he'd wanted to be a soldier since the third grade. A natural with computers, which he'd learned to program when he was eight, he also believed he might be good at the Army – at least the part that didn't require shooting anyone. "I'm more concerned about making sure that everyone – soldiers, Marines, contractors, even the local nationals – get home to their families," he once told a friend. "I feel a great responsibility and duty to people."
A science geek, Manning dreamed of studying physics at Cornell or MIT. But prior to enlisting, he'd spent a few years adrift, working odd jobs, moving from Oklahoma City to Tulsa to Chicago and finally to Potomac, Maryland, a suburb of Washington, D.C, where he worked at Starbucks and spent much of his free time playing an extraordinary amount of Eve Online, the multiplayer sci-fi role-playing game. The Army offered Manning a new life and a way to pay for college, and as draining as it was on him personally, he was, by every account, excellent at his job. A "35 Fox," the Army's code for an intelligence analyst, Manning scrutinized data across a broad spectrum of sources and prepared intelligence briefings for his superiors. A voracious reader, he spent his free time poring over books on physics, biology, international relations, even art history, all of which he believed could inform his analysis and "hopefully," he told a friend, "save lives."
FOB Hammer was a middle-of-nowhere base, situated in eastern Iraq, about a third of the way between Baghdad and the Iranian border. Nine miles square, it had been built for the surge and was fortified by layers upon layers of blast walls and concertina wire to fend off attack. When it rained, the ground turned to peanut butter. When it was dry, soldiers lived in mountains of dust. No matter where you looked, the vista was the same: empty.
Life on the FOB was in some ways a portrait of end-of-the-war ennui. Only a fraction of the 300-odd soldiers at Hammer engaged directly with Iraqis; the rest, like Bradley Manning, never left the base. His world was smaller than a football field, consisting of his double-occupancy trailer, the base chow hall, recreation center and shower trailer and, just a few steps away, his workstation in the Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility, or SCIF. In this windowless plywood box of a building, intelligence analysts led a Groundhog Day-like existence working 12-hour shifts, after which they'd eat, sleep, wake up and do it all over again. It was tedious, often boring work, and security was remarkably lax. "Everyone just sat at their workstations watching music videos, car chases, buildings exploding," he later said.
But their access was tremendous: Even low-level analysts could connect to SIPRNet – the Secure Internet Protocol Router used by both the State Department and the Department of Defense to transfer classified data – as well as to another network used by the Justice Department and the Department of Homeland Security. The networks were monitored but mostly for outside intrusion. Manning once asked an NSA official if the agency could find any suspicious activity coming out of the local networks. "He shrugged," Manning recalled, "and said, 'It's not a priority.'"
Manning started off on the night shift, as part of the Shi'a Threat Team, a group of analysts tasked with tracking insurgent supporters of radical Shiites like Muqtada al-Sadr. He did well, earning commendations for his "persistence," and in November 2009 was promoted to specialist. Not long afterward, word began to spread around the FOB that Al Qaeda was publishing "anti-Iraqi literature" at a local printing facility. With help from American troops, the Iraqi federal police raided the place and arrested a group of 15 men they claimed to be insurgents.
But almost immediately after the raid, it became clear to U.S. forces that the men were not Al Qaeda, but political opponents of Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, whom the government wanted to silence. It was an embarrassing moment for the 10th Mountain, whose officers "simply wanted it to go away," as one government official who was there recalls. "Had we done our research, we would have realized that Maliki was a thug who was using us to do his dirty work." For some of the soldiers, particularly those who truly believed they were nation-building, it was a devastating blow. "This was their first encounter with the gap between propaganda and reality," the official adds. "We weren't promoting democracy at all. In fact, this whole democracy thing was bullshit."

Thousands of parents nationwide are finding more free time, less carpools to drive, and less soccer games to attend.
Susan Mantell is a mother of five and recently sent her only daughter away to college for the first time.
"It was pretty emotional. That's my baby girl," Mantell said.
She still has two boys at home, but already notices the difference.
"It's getting really quiet and stuff. It's a little change in your lifestyle and moving into a different area of [your] life," Mantel said.
Freshmen all over the country are moving to college for the first time. But what about the parents? It's been nicknamed 'empty nest syndrome,' but Mantell learned early to make a separate life for herself and her husband before the kids all leave.
"I started a business a couple years ago looking for a new adventure so when the kids start growing up and getting out of the house that I would have a life too," Mantel said.
"You can have 20 or 30 years after your careers have wound down and after your kids have grown, but the average American only spends about 10 hours of their life planning for how they're going to spend their time to remain engaged and involved in their community," said Peter Thompson Executive Director of Senior Center.
The Senior Center offers the next chapter, which helps with transitions later in life, including empty-nesting.
"We have peer coaches trained to work one-on-one. [We have] life planning seminars, either one day or five-week sessions," explained Thompson. "We also just started round table discussions for people just to come and learn from each other and share their experiences about what they're going through such as that person who is sending their last kid off to college."
With over half her kids gone, Mantell gives parents personal advice:
"You need to raise them to be more independent and move on and enjoy life," she said.

The MSRP for the Honda CBR 600 F4i is around $8,200, the Honda CBR 600RR is around $8,600 and the 1000RR MSRP is closer to $11,000. The 2004 Honda CBR 600 F4i features a one piece seat while the 600RR and 1000RR models feature a two piece seat. All of the seats are made of vinyl and meant to accommodate two people. Riders praise the handling capabilities of the CBR 600 F4i but also warn that this makes it easy for novice riders to overextend themselves and get in over their heads at high speeds.
The bike has exceptional balance and comes equipped with foot pegs for the driver and passenger as well. This is an ideal choice for a fun starter bike because its handle, requires low maintenance and has good brakes as well. The CBR 600 F4i has a smooth ride that makes it easier to accelerate up to high speeds without realizing it. The performance, handling and design are some of the most impressive things about Honda's CBR 1000RR sport bike. For most riders, the 1000RR is comfortable, has a responsive throttle and is just as easy to handle as the CBR 600RR.
Many riders love the cornering ability of the 1000RR and feel it's one of the best sport bikes to own. Many riders love the suspension and handling adjustability, making this is a great bike to take on the track. Riders typically feel that the 600RR absorbs bumps on the road just as well as any sport bike currently on the market. The CBR 600RR gets around 45 mpg on average for many riders. Some complain that riding on the 600RR for more than a few hours at a time can result in back and rest pain at times. There are several people that still use these sport bikes as a daily rider, underscoring the durability and reliability of Honda's 2004 CBR series.

Drop the nonsensical "Knoxville Center" moniker and get back to basics. East Towne Mall was a thriving location that was allowed to whither on the vine.
Very few people ever admit to wanting to shop in the wretched cesspool of West Knoxville, but there really are few other options these days.
I don't believe the mall experience is dead. I believe developers (and their elected co-conspirators/representatives) have merely discovered another opportunity to siphon off taxpayer dollars to fund further urban sprawl (Turkey Creek, Mountain Grove, Sam Walton Way at 441, et al) and this expansionism is only going to end up creating more big-box vacancies in the long-term.
I believe we need to a total reversal of our current taxation policy. Developments contributing to urban sprawl should face higher taxation to discourage such destructive endeavors while existing urban economic zones should be rewarded with lower tax burdens for maintaining/upgrading developed areas.

I tend to shop East Towne more than I do West Town. The only reason I tend to go to West Town is because the wife may want to go to New York In Company or Dillard. I think East Town is a under utilized facility. Dillard sits empty. The malls here are managed by Simon. Why isn't Simon do anything to increase business at East Town too? I live over that way and get tired of going West all the time. Sams is growing over at East Town why can't East Town itself expand. Could a Macys go in the spot were Dillards was? We see the advertisements on tv here but to closes one is in Nashville.

Accepted Offer
Negative Experience
Difficult Interview
I applied online and the process took a day - interviewed at Press Ganey in September 2009.
Interview Details – First I had two phone interviews. Next I drove into town, they put me up in a nice hotel. The next day I spent several hours interviewing with several people in different departments. I found the interview process exhausting and Unnecessarily drawn out. For the most part everyone stuck to a script of typical questions. I sensed that most of the people conducting the interview felt stiffeled by having to ask the questions. Some people varied and asked their own style of questions. Everyone was polite and very professional. This is a conservative company. I answered every question to the best of my ability and tried my utmost to remain alert and interested in this archaic interview process.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details – My offer came well below what the market will offer so I negotiated other perks to make the offer more suitable. Know the market, know your position and if it is valued within the company. Some positions are more valuable to the company than others. My position was not a direct contributor so it was not as valuable say as a Sales Executive would be. I knew what I could or couldn't negotiate with my given role. In the end I feel that Press Ganey was fair and flexible with regards to my offer.
