Executive Summary - All the Right Moves: Importers Turn to Self-Filing
Wednesday, July 27, 2016
Importers always have difficult decisions to make when it comes to self-reliance vs. outsourcing. From producing a good (own factory vs. suppliers) to transportation (in-house fleet vs. contract carriers) to software (proprietary vs. off-the-shelf), the decisions are plentiful. That's no different when it comes to trade compliance and the use of customs brokers. With new dynamics, like the mandatory implementation this year of the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE), possible ...
Air Transport: Cuban cargo decisions
Wednesday, July 27, 2016
Earlier this year, FedEx outlined the importance of air cargo routes between the United States and Cuba in submitted documents to the U.S. Department of Transportation.

When a final list of approved domestic carriers was released, it became obvious that FedEx's pleas fell on deaf ears. In early July, DOT pro...
On Second Thought: Filling the transportation industry's innovators vacuum
Wednesday, July 27, 2016
Five years ago in this space, I put forth a tantalizing question; "Who will be the Transportation Industry's next Steve Jobs?" Jobs had recently passed away and our industry had a vacuum as innovators like Don Schneider, Malcom McLean, Phil Yeager and J.B. Hunt had also passed. As I look back on the 2011 piece that I wrote, I now realize that I was too focused on the assets. I am pleased to report that there has been a new crop of innovative leaders that have emerged—but they are far more di...

CIO Insight: The before and after of the RFP
Wednesday, July 27, 2016
For a company buying technology, it's often easy to get caught up in the delirium of what that system will provide. Never mind the process of choosing a vendor, preparing for deployment, and implementing, it's all about the end result. But the reality is the end result is never as satisfying when companies forget about the hard work of preparing a suitable request for proposal (RFP). And when they do, it really puts the onus on software vendors to raise their games, to look inte...
Editorial: Staying vigilant on cargo security
Wednesday, July 27, 2016
Cargo security vigilance in the United States was perhaps at its highest in the wake and immediate years following the deadly terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. However, its human nature for us to drift back into a state of complacency after a while. Businesses grumble quietly how much they can't stand the regulatory burdens placed upon them. They just want to move the freight and make their money as quickly as possible. Nothing should stand in the way of that. Right? &n...

Maritime History Notes: The last of the Econ ships
Wednesday, July 27, 2016
In 1982, Malcom McLean, head of United States Lines and previously head of Sea-Land, contracted for 12 of the world's largest containerships to be built.

At the time, containerships were being built bigger and faster, and new compan...
Container Analytics: 2M Alliance to become three?
Wednesday, July 27, 2016

The breakbulk and project cargo sector remain weak, with little suggestion that volumes will improve significantly until the end of 2017." Susan Oatway, Dr...

Port of Houston sees half-year box volumes slip 4%

However, for the first six months of 2016, the port saw container volumes fall 4 percent from the corresponding period last year to 1.09 million TEUs. The primary reason for the difference is that temporary congestion on the West Coast resulted in one-off cargo flows to Gulf and East Coast ports in 2015. As labor and operational conditions improved out West, shippers resumed booking ca...
Port of Redwood City reports drop in tonnage

Critical Great Lakes lock assessed for expansion
Tuesday, July 26, 2016
A maritime industry official suggested during a House panel this month that a major commercial navigation lock on the Great Lakes should be twinned to provide redundancy in case of a terrorist act, but the real danger, experts say, is from some kind of mechanical failure to the aging facility.

text: Cramer was bearish on Windstream ( WIN). Executive Decision: Tony Sanchez In his second "Executive Decision" segment, Cramer spoke with Tony Sanchez III, chairman and CEO of Sanchez Energy ( SN), an oil and gas producer that just announced the purchase of 43,000 acres of prime Eagle Ford land from Hess ( HES) for $265 million. Sanchez called the land acquisition "transformational" for his company, noting that it will accelerate growth by a full 18 months. He also noted his company remains fully funded for the next two years, so it will be able to take fully advantage of the new acreage. Also, Sanchez said the acquisition currently has a full infrastructure buildout, so oil from the wells that will be drilled can easily be piped to market. He said about 75% of this year's production has already been hedged at great prices, and even more will be once the deal closes. When asked about natural gas, Sanchez said 80% to 90% of the gas that comes out of his company's wells is currently being sold to the market and is a great source of incremental revenue for the company. Cramer said that with this one deal Sanchez has transformed his company into a major Eagle Ford player. Cramer said he'd be a buyer of the stock. No Huddle Offense In his "No Huddle Offense" segment, Cramer celebrated just a few of the companies that delivered stellar news to their shareholders. He said General Mills continues to execute on its plans and deliver terrific results, as does Lennar ( LEN), Williams-Sonoma ( WSM), Anadarko Petroleum ( APC) and Walgreens ( WAG), all of which had great things to say today.

I'm wondering what is the maximum amount of sites/subscriptions that a plesk install can allow? Is it dependent on diskspace? The version we have installed is psa-11.0.9-rhel6.build110120608.16.x86_64
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
Think, it mostly depend on OS/file system settings and settings of such services like apache, nginx, mysql and postfix. I have seen several articles in parallels knowledge base which are describing tweaks for increasing maximum amount of domains. For example:
Obliviously there is should be a limit caused by internal software design. I know that there are plesks with ~1000 of domains and ~5000 of mailboxes. By the way, I know that there is Parallels Plesk Automation, it's a product for middle hosters and it's allows divide hosting services by different servers, which also allow to increase amounts of domains.
May be it's prefer to ask on http://serverfault.com, may be there are guys which are faced with big stand-alone plesk servers?
There is a limit on the number of domains you can have, depending on your license. On one of my cloud servers, the limit is 30 because that's what my license allows.

Comments about 'Utah football: Kyle Whittingham in the middle of 10th spring as Utes' head coach'

I'll take a stab at your question.
I think it is reasonable to expect Utah to start sniffing .500 in the Pac-12 this year. At this point there are truly on 2 elite teams (Oregon and Stanford) and 3 elite programs (those 2 plus USC)
I would expect them to contend for a South Championship in 2-3 years. I don't expect Utah to be a team that stays at the top of the Pac-12. I would expect them to be in the middle 3rd most years, and make runs at the Pac-12 championship once or twice every 5-6 years. In those years, it will be with a very experienced QB, and stay healthy.
I really do think Kyle is building it right, and is the man for the job.

Coach Whit will get the ship righted. Especially with the recent success of the bball team and Coach K, and the added pressure to follow suit. They will go to a bowl game this year. Third time's the charm.

If I read the article correctly Whit said all the Seniors earned their degrees.
If that is correct, my profound congratulations to each Senior, the coaches and
the staff.
My take on the Utes prospects going forward is that while I expect incremental improvement in talent and performance, the ability to compete in the South probably has more to do with what goes on at USC and UCLA than it does with what happens at Utah.
There has been a window of opportunity over the last couple of years as USC has been in disarry as a result of their sanctions and scholarship limits.
If Sark gets that ship headed in the right direction, everyone else in the division may be playing for 2nd place every year.
Mora has brought stability to UCLA so they're likely to be a handful as well.
The unfortunate truth is the Utes may get significantly better and have their best case scenario still be 3rd in the division.

Let's roll
Sark may (and that's a big may) get USC righted, but it won't be this season. That program is a dumpster fire. Lot's of kids leaving for the draft, and the sanctions have finally caught up with them, to the point where their depth is gone.

Bombardier Transportation and London Underground (LU) announced the signaling contract for the Circle, District, Hammersmith & City, and Metropolitan lines (sub-surface lines) will be re-let by LU following discussions between the two companies.
Bombardier was awarded a contract in June 2011 following a competitive tender process and has already undertaken a great deal of preparatory works.
The new contract will see signaling modernized on 40% of the Underground network, allowing LU to run more trains, more often and more reliably.
Combined with 191 S-Stock trains, which Bombardier has successfully supplied for the Metropolitan line and which are now being introduced on the Hammersmith & City and Circle lines, the upgrade will increase capacity on the sub-surface lines — the Circle and Hammersmith & City lines by 65%, the District line by 24%t and the Metropolitan line by 27%.
The city's mayor had wanted a June 2017 deadline, after the upcoming election and legislative session. He has also suggested shortening the route to stay within budget.
The Initiative proposes to restore service between Boston and New Haven, Conn., through Springfield, Mass. and Hartford, Conn., and add new service between Boston and Montreal.
Diana Mendes is responsible for strategic planning and implementation, industry representation, business development, service delivery and client satisfaction.
Company to operate and maintain the Denton County Transportation Authority's A-train 21-mile commuter rail line.

Master of the Opera, Act 6: Crescendoby Jeffe Kennedy
Caught in a web of secrets and lies, Christy Davis has come under the suspicion of the local police. Since becoming an intern at the Sante Fe Opera House,/i>
In the sixth and final installment of Jeffe Kennedy's sizzling Master of the Opera, a man and a woman risk everything they've ever loved—for the most dangerous passion they've ever known. . .
Caught in a web of secrets and lies, Christy Davis has come under the suspicion of the local police. Since becoming an intern at the Sante Fe Opera House, she has witnessed strange occurences in the underground tunnels. She has heard inexplicable whispers in the shadows after midnight. And she has found the lover of her dreams in the masked man who lives down below. But after the discovery of a dead body and other sinister events, Christy realizes that her life is in danger. Two men hold her fate in their hands: Roman, the opera house's wealthy benefactor who uses his money and power to control her. And the masked maestro known as the Master who demands her surrender and commands her pleasure with each stroke. Both want her; only one can have her. . .
In a rising crescendo of madness, obsession, and lust, Christy must take a chance and follow her heart—to a breathtaking climax as powerful as love itself.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars Master of the Opera, Act 6: Crescendo by Jeffe Kennedy is the final book in her Master of the Opera serialized novels. What an ending - very classy. The story is wrapped up succinctly and neatly with just enough drama to stay consistent with the series but not so much it seems like a cheap shot thrown out for added "bang for the buck". We discover WHO has been attacking people inside the opera house. We get to meet Christine's father for the first time. We learn about the secrets he knows and see whether his arrival in Santa Fe is fortuitous or ominous (liking my big words today). And most of all we get an ending, or resolution, of sorts , between Christine and the Master. The steamy scenes in this series have been STEAMY, but the series itself is not about only sex, so my libido is a little sad but my brain is entertained. For everyone who HATES serialization - all the books are out now. The whole story - no waiting !!!

Honiara evacuation centre closures delayed two months after Solomon Islands floodsTuesday June 17, 2014 - 00:44 EST
Solomon Islands disaster officials have delayed plans to close the remaining evacuation centres, which were opened after the April floods.
Solomon Islands' National Disaster Council director Loti Yates told the council has been given until June 21 to clear the remaining centres.
He says the closures were delayed by budgetary problems, but he expects NDC operations to be back on schedule soon.
"We've been held back due to problems that we're having with our budget, so we were not able to get the people to move," he said.
"But I think the government will be making funds available shortly so we should be able to continue the repatriation process."
The April floods left thousands homeless, many of whom were living in squatter settlements close to the rivers and waterways around the capital Honiara.
More than 1,000 people are still in emergency accommodation, some unable to return to their destroyed homes, others holding out for compensation after rumours the government would provide cash grants to victims.
Mr Yates says authorities are aiming to repatriate people back to their province of origin, which will be a "challenge".
He says many appear unwilling to return to their home provinces after settling in Honiara for the long-term.
"We are dealing people who have lived in Honiara and have children attending schools and doing their educaiton in Honiara so that is likely to be a problem because people will be refusing to leave because we are compromising on the education of their children and the services they are enjoying in Honiara," he said.

Nice hotel facility, very poor management & staffPosted Jun 9, 2016
Pros: Rooms were clean, as was overall hotel.

Location: Awesome Tanglewood park and a great soccer park facility are conveniently nearby.
Kaitlyn, As a loyal Hilton Family of hotels guest for nearly a dozen years, I writing to you to let you know our experience this past weekend was surprisingly disappointing and totally out of character for what we have come to know regarding a Hilton brand hotel. I am not sure how to express our disappointment other than to start with an email communication of our experience, and perhaps have a personal face-to-face meeting to get into more detail as needed. I had left you a personal voice mail on Friday afternoon, June 3rd, and have yet to hear a response from you, so perhaps you believe everything was taken care of. I can assure you it was not. A little background first; we are not out of town guests, but rather reside nearby in Clemmons. My wife has spoken highly of your hotel as she and many of her friends enjoy reserving both guest rooms and the large conference room for a long weekend of scrap-booking and together time. They do this annually and have also come to learn your hotel is also known for families hosting children's sleep-over birthday parties, with the super bonus of having the slide pool on the premises. Needless to say, we had made aspirational plans to host our daughter's 7th birthday party at your hotel, and were able to coordinate another classmate's party at the same time for a duel birthday party celebration. This was all planned multiple months ago, with all logistics set in advance with multiple confirmation calls to your staff over the last co

one night stayPosted Feb 16, 2016 on Hotels
My family and I chose this hotel for a birthday gathering because of the location, pool and breakfast. The Pool was full because unfortunately there was 2 other birthdays going on. The pool was very dirty filled with hair (among other unknown particles), water was cloudy and while walking in the pool the floor of the pool was filled with stuff that I would step on. towels were not always available and the hot tub bubbles were not working.

Family visitPosted Jan 18, 2016
Didn't have much time in the hotel, really wanted to spend time in the pool after all it has 2 slides. Staff was remarkable, hotel was top notch, very clean and beds were very comfortable. I was leary on the price at first but being close to family won out and glad it did well worth the money. We will stay in anytime we visit family in the area again. Highly recommend it.

Not my best experience at this hotelPosted Dec 27, 2015 on Hotels
I was sorely disappointed that the pool heater was broken. I paid 30$ MORE a night than I could have at another hotel just because my grandchildren love this pool. There was a sign saying it would be fixed on "Wednesday," but it was not the Wednesday that came and went during our five day stay......the slides were open with heated water, but only one of my grandchildren likes the slides. If I had gotten yearning, I might have made different plans. I ended up spending more money finding other activities. Breakfast runs for a good 4 hours and they always have good options (perhaps a little more healthy protein would be good.) Beds are comfortable. Not much dresser space. Elevator call button broke on last day. I do like this hotel usually. Just not my best experience.

Nice hotel if not busyPosted Dec 18, 2015
Pros: Great facilities and clean rooms
Cons: Better prepared for busy times. Also, there were not enough drawers in the rooms.
Location: Great location for restaurants and directly off the highway.
This is a great hotel....nice clean rooms, friendly staff, and a fun pool with slides. However, we discovered that when the hotel is busy that it can not cope very well. We stayed 2 nights. Friday night/Saturday morning were very busy. The pool area did not have enough seating for us to sit down while our kids played on the water slides. Then, the breakfast area could not cope with the amount of guests trying to get breakfast in the morning. So much so, that we in fact ended up going off premises and paying for breakfast so that our family could eat together! Saturday into Sunday was a totally different story. The crowds had left, and everything was perfect. Our kids thoroughly enjoyed the pool, and we discovered that the breakfast was very nice. Unfortunately, a broken elevator, and several other broken things (ice makers etc) did not help the situation. If they can find a way to cater to a full hotel and fix broken things then this would be the perfect hotel.

Most offices buy office supplies in bulk in order to get the best pricing, and that includes discount toners and printer cartridges. However, the inevitable issue arises when you have a lot of toner and you may not be storing it properly. Believe it or not, improper toner storage methods can ruin your printer toner.
Toner storage is not necessarily an art form by any means, but storing toner incorrectly can be needlessly costly. Copier Supply Store has been selling discount toner and discount printer cartridges for decades, and when customers ask us how to store toner, we give them these three tips:
Avoid Humidity
Moisture of any kind is going to destroy your printer toner. Toner and printer cartridges usually come in sealed containers that are vacuumed to remove all air and eliminate humidity; but regardless, moisture will find a way to damage the insides of the toner eventually, if you do not store your printer toner properly.
Avoid Climate Extremes
If you live in Miami, Florida or North Dakota, avoid toner storage areas that are not indoors. In fact, if it does not have climate control, do not store printer toner there. When looking for toner storage space, ensure that the temperature is never above 95 degrees or below 50.
Keep Toner in Original Packaging
Toner should be kept in its original packaging, box and bag, all properly sealed. That is the best way to maximize the life of your printer toner. The packaging is designed to last, so removing it or placing the toner in your own packaging will only compromise the integrity of the toner itself.

/// French Privacy Agency Moves to Sanction Google
September 27, 2013 | All Things Digital
France's data-protection agency slapped Google Inc. on Friday with a formal sanctions proceeding that could lead to fines, the most aggressive step yet by a European regulator from a number that allege the Web giant has been violating European privacy law. France's privacy watchdog, the Commission Nationale de l'Informatique et des Libertes, said on its website that Google hadn't implemented a three-month-old order to change its treatment of French users' data by a deadline Friday. In response, the agency said it was beginning the formal procedure for imposing sanctions. Read the rest of this post on the original site »

Cop gives hook the chop
Relevant offers
The last thing fisherman Robin Gilchrist, 73, expected to catch with his brand-new Kontiki was himself.
The Browns Bay man hoped to snag some decent snapper for tea, but his finger was pierced by a stray hook that threatened to drag him out to sea.
"It was going out a lot faster than normal and the bait flicked up into my finger.
"I had to race down the beach pretty quickly with the line while the other guy I was with stopped the motor."
Browns Bay community constable Paul Donaldson is now being praised as the resident finger surgeon after dealing to the hook with a pair of bolt-cutters more commonly used to carry out search warrants.
It was the first time Mr Gilchrist had launched the $4000 machine, on the morning of February 7.
"Initially I tried to push it [the hook] out myself with some pliers but it was stuck on the bone," he says.
In need of more heavy duty cutters, Mr Gilchrist took himself to the medical centre where nurses tried in vain to remove the hook.
Even side-cutters could not break the high tensile hook.
"They told me I was going to need an operation. I said 'just pull the bloody thing out', but they wouldn't do it.
"There was some squid bait hanging off it that freaked them out a bit."
Mr Gilchrist was about to return to his fishing, with the hook still lodged in his finger, when he was told to try the police station.
It was there that Mr Donaldson came to the rescue with a pair of 400-millimetre bolt cutters.
"We use them for carrying out search warrants, gaining access to locked gates, cutting padlocks, that sort of thing," Mr Donaldson says.
With a bit of muscle the stainless steel long-line hook was cut free.
"When all else fails go and see Dr Paul Donaldson," Mr Gilchrist says.
"I did think at the time 'what a waste of a good hook', but I suppose it could've been worse."
Mr Gilchrist says he gathered a full haul of snapper with his Kontiki the next day.
The incident has done little to deter him from using his new toy.

Blending a Smart Object
Blending a Smart Object
Now I've gone ahead and made a few tweaks to my Puppet Warp effect between exercises and just so you can see what they look like I'll go ahead and double-click on the Puppet Warp item associated with my tiger tattoo layer and at least this way you get to see which pins I'm using and where they're located. Truthfully, however, there's no way you're going to exactly duplicate my effects anymore than I've been able to exactly duplicate my own effects as I've worked through this project several times now. So I've saved all my changes thus far as Puppet warped tattoo.psd. Now I'm going to go ahead and press the Enter key in order to accept that effect.
I've got a couple of things going on here. We have some tattoo that's flying off the guy's skin. So we need to go ahead and clip that. And also I want to better map this ink onto his skin so that we're seeing the highlight area show through. That's going to be a function of Luminous ble...

Kessler Wants Frack Disclosure
WHEELING – Mike McCown and Kathryn Klaber said if Jeff Kessler wants to know what chemicals are used for natural gas fracking, all he has to do is look on the Internet.
Kessler, acting West Virginia Senate president, D-Marshall, is calling for a law requiring Marcellus Shale drillers to disclose the chemical solutions they use to "complete" their wells, which is how industry leaders formally refer to hydraulic fracturing, or fracking. The process calls for drillers to pump millions of gallons of water, sand and chemicals deep into the earth at high pressure to break the rock to release the gas.
"People have the right to know what is being put in the ground and potentially in the water," said Kessler, whose home county of Marshall has seen much of the local drilling activity. "I'm not asking companies to disclose anything proprietary about the exact amount or makeup, just the ingredients."
Many drillers now post the contents of their fracking solutions online, noting about 99.5 percent of the solution consists of water and sand. Some gas companies provide their own solutions, while others rely on fracfocus.org.
However, if even 0.5 percent of the 5 million gallons of water, sand and chemical solution used to frack a typical well consists of chemicals, that means 25,000 gallons of chemicals are being pumped into the ground at pressure as high as 10,000 pounds per square inch.
A joint West Virginia Senate-House select committee was recently appointed to study Marcellus Shale regulation. Sen. Douglas Facemire, D-Braxton, chairs the select committee and agrees with Kessler.
"West Virginians have voiced legitimate concerns over this issue, and we intend to honor their request for disclosure," said Facemire. "It is not only our goal, but our responsibility to foster this industry in the most environmentally safe manner possible."
However, McCown, president of the West Virginia Independent Oil & Gas Association and vice president of Gastar Exploration, said no additional disclosure requirements are needed.
"The bottom line is natural gas operators and fracturing companies already disclose the chemicals used in frack fluids, and legislation to require companies to disclose the information is unnecessary," he said. "The chemicals used in fracturing fluid consist of friction reducers that decrease the hydraulic horsepower required to pump the fluid/sand mixture, biocides that prevent bacteria formation in the well and rock, and scale inhibitors that prevent scale that impedes flow.
"Without fracturing, the wells will not produce," McCown added.
Klaber, president of the Canonsburg, Pa.-based Marcellus Shale Coalition, also directed those seeking information about fracking to fracfocus.org.
"Transparency is a key tenant of our industry's Guiding Principles, which is why we absolutely support common sense disclosure measures," Klaber said. "Put simply, states continue to demonstrate that they are best situated to effectively regulate hydraulic fracturing, a technology that's been safely used in the United States since the Truman administration and one that is helping to put thousands of Americans to work."
Chesapeake Energy spokeswoman Jacque Bland also cited fracfocus.org as a source of information, as well as the Chesapeake website. Consol Energy spokeswoman Lynn Seay said her company provides on its website, adding, "Senator Kessler has been a longtime advocate for enabling our natural resources both gas and coal – in an environmentally responsible manner."
Among the fracking chemicals found on fracfocus.org include a substance called tetramethyl ammonium chloride. According to Occupational Safety and Health Administration Material Safety Data Sheets, this chemical "may be fatal is swallowed, inhaled or absorbed."
Acetaldehyde is listed as being harmful and a possible carcinogen. Thioglycolic acid is also harmful, according to the MSDS.
Two-butoxyethanol is listed as a narcotic and respiratory irritant that may cause kidney or liver damage.

Fat Chance (A Finley Anderson Tanner Mystery, #3)

Becky's review
Feb 09, 2011
Read from February 08 to 09, 2011
This was the first I'd read of this series - got it from my mom. Even though I was coming in in the middle of the series, I enjoyed this as a fun fast read. Something to distract me from being sick. Finley is a pretty likeable character. Obviously not the next Great Work of Fiction, but a fun read.

Sifting through the ancient timbers of the Kronan, a ship that sank in 1676 off the Swedish coast, they found not diamonds as they had hoped... but a cheese. Inside a watertight pot was a semi-firm 340-year-old "dairy product" smelling of yeast and Roquefort cheese, expedition leader Lars Einarsson told AFP on Thursday.
