Stick-straight hair is still in, and keratin is one of the most buzzed about (good and bad) beauty procedures of the moment. But it's pricey — and stinky. Good thing John Frieda has come out with a safe, innocuous-smelling alternative called Frizz-Ease 3-Day Straight Semi-Permanent Styling Spray, and there's no need for a mask when you spritz it on. This Allure-approved product, just $9.99, is a perfect accompaniment to a flatiron because it's heat activated. And compared to $300 for a keratin treatment, this is worth a try. At drugstores.
Feeling washed out? Kiehl's has a nifty new product for spring: Rosa Arctica Youth Regenerating Cream. And this sounds promising. The super-rich formula works hard to reactivate tired, sun-parched skin with a flower, Haberlea rhodopensis, found on the Rhodopes Mountain Range in Bulgaria. This biological wonder (a hit with Julianne Moore) has the capability to minimize water loss for up to 31 months as a survival strategy. Then the plant can resume normal growth with only a few drops of moisture. Call it giving your face a wakeup call. Bonus: Unlike, say, fellow hard worker La Mer, it's only $60 at Kiehl's stores now.
Celeb doc Michael Hall has created what he calls "hospital in a suitcase.'' A favorite among such hip-hop stars as Drake (who bought one for his tour bus), the Hall MEDpac contains live-saving medical equipment designed to provide on-site treatment during a medical emergency.

New Means To Make Men Feel Younger
Published: March 31, 1998
(Page 2 of 2)
Still, Viagra's competitors are not taking its arrival lying down. A spokeswoman for Vivus notes that Muse takes only minutes to work while many men may not want to wait an hour for Viagra. Some men may also prefer a local injection.
Since many men are embarrassed about impotence, Pfizer is considering aiming part of its sales pitch toward women. The giant drug company may eventually take out ads in women's magazines, executives say, although some of the ad copy may be tricky. Still, the approach should pay dividends. Some urologists report that many of the first appointments of those who suffer from impotence are made by their wives.
''Impotency is definitely a couple's problem,'' said a female 50-year-old Nashville health care professional whose fiance suffers from male erectile dysfunction. ''Some of the men in these programs get so mistreated and discouraged. All that trouble just flows down to their wives or girlfriends. My fiance did not go to the doctor until I convinced him that the problem affected me, too.''
Pfizer should also benefit from word-of-mouth referrals, swapped everywhere from board rooms to locker rooms. Once a taboo topic, impotency is increasingly an acceptable subject of conversation. The Internet was buzzing for most of last week with men inquiring when the drug would be available. Much of the interest was not limited to men who are dysfunctional.
Men were also eagerly swapping news about which treatment they liked best, displaying some of the same loyalty as they do with their favorite brand of liquor. One 58-year-old engineer from Buffalo joined the Viagra clinical trials after his high blood pressure medications hindered his ability to achieve erections.
''I was able to have great sex each time,'' he said. ''But what was really interesting is that after having sex at night, I woke up the next morning with an erection. That had not happened in quite a while.''
The drugs can be hazardous, though, particularly when misused. One 46-year-old Virginia man, out to relive his days of multiple daily sexual experiences, recently upped his dose of Caverject, which is injected. His erection lasted 19 hours and had to be treated by his doctor.
''The condition is known as priapism,'' said Dr. Broderick, the University of Pennsylvania specialist. ''I tell everyone who tries one of these drugs that if they have an erection for more than four hours and it won't go away, they should go to the hospital.''
As Viagra filters into America's medicine cabinets -- Pfizer expects to have it widely available in drugstores by mid-April -- some doctors are worried that erectile dysfunction may lose some of its notoriety as a serious medical illness. Many H.M.O.'s are considering paying for Viagra treatments, making it more economically attractive.
''Before Viagra, men who suffered from erectile dysfunction would go to a urologist,'' Dr. Broderick said. ''With Viagra, I suspect that much more of the treatment will be with the general practitioner. Patients may even be able to phone in and get prescriptions. Doctors may say: 'Here. Take these two Viagras and call me in the morning.' ''
Chart: ''Treatments for Impotence'' Drug comapnies are working on a number of products for male erectile dysfunction. Last week Pfizer receieved approval to market its sildenafil tablet, to te sold as Viagra, joining competing versions of alprostadil already on the market. Chart compares treatments already on the market, those in advanced trials, and those under development. It provides information on the following: how the treatments are used, the share of users who see improvement, how long the treatments take to work, how long the treatments' effects typically last, and the treatments' respective side effects.

Patent application title: Foot torque
Robert Lee Barks, Sr. (North East, MD, US)
IPC8 Class: AB60B2900FI
USPC Class:
Class name: Wrench, screwdriver, or driver therefor rigid jaws enclosed (e.g., socket)
Publication date: 2010-01-07

"Foot Torque" is a new and improved version of the lug wrench for
vehicles. "Foot Torque" far proceeds anything in the market, designed to
accomplish the changing of a tire in a much easier, safer, and convenient
on almost any vehicle. "Foot Torque" was designed with the intention to
change one's tire, but also making it possible for all types of people to
use. "Foot Torque" can be used by the elderly, the handicapped, the
disabled and even used by people who have never changed a tire in their
life. "Foot Torque" is the safest, easiest and most convenient lug wrench
anyone could ever use. There is nothing like "Foot Torque" on the market
today and if it is put on the market, I am quite positive that people
would never consider using anything else again.
1. This claim is for my invention. A standard single bar lug wrench with
an improved modification. My new improved wrench will make the changing
of a tire, on any vehicle, much easier and faster. The "foot torque" is
much easier and safer for the elderly, females and the handicapped.
2. In reference to claim number one, "foot torque" has a foot pedal on the opposite side of the socket. The foot pedal is used to conveniently loosen a lug nut with the simple strike of one's foot.
3. The "foot torque" has a color coded pedal with one side red for tightening, and one side green for loosening. The foot pedal has a non slip surface on both sides. Both sides of the pedal have an abrasive "sand paper" surface, making it non-slip when wet or dry. This is in reference to the foot pedal in claim number two.
4. "Foot Torque is constructed of steel or other suitable metals and comes in various sized sockets for the vehicle in which they are supplied. This is in reference to the socket in claim number two.
[0001]I claim priority to the earlier filed Provisional Application.
Application No. 61/125,774. Application date (filing) is Apr. 29, 2008.
[0002]My Invention referred to as "Foot Torque" is a basic improvement modification over the standard straight bar single socket lug wrench. A conventional lug wrench is used to remove lug nuts from the wheels of cars, trucks, and other vehicles that have a flat tire that needs changed. Many times a lug nut may be rusted on, or very tight. The conventional lug wrench has a socket on one end that fits over the lug nut. By grasping the other end of the metal lug wrench with one's hand and pulling upwards in usually a counter clockwise direction the person is able to loosen the lug nut on the wheel. Sometimes for older people, females, or people with arthritis, this can be a near impossible task. Even a healthy person can injure a hand, arm, or shoulder when applying heavy force on a conventional lug wrench. "Foot Torque" is designed to eliminate this problem.
[0003]"Foot Torque" incorporates a metal foot pedal at the opposite end of the lug nut socket. The foot pedal is used by tapping your foot sharply on the pedal to break the lug nut loose without using your hand, arm, or shoulder, thus avoiding possible strains or injuries to yourself. Your foot, leg, and body weight are used as removal force for the lug nut.
[0004]FIG. 1. of "foot torque" illustrates a side view showing non slip foot pedal surface. Also, shows socket of various sizes. Construction of steel or other suitable metals.
[0005]My invention, referred to as the "foot torque" is a basic straight bar lug wrench with improved modifications. Similar to a conventional straight bar lug wrench, "foot torque" has a permanent socket on one end. The socket may be in various sizes to fit the particular vehicle in which it is supplied. On the opposite end of the "foot torque" is a permanently affixed foot pedal. Both sides of the pedal are covered with a rough grit sandpaper material to prevent one's foot from sliding off when striking it to loosen a lug nut. One side of the pedal is red for tightening and the other side of the pedal is green for loosening. There is a far superior force being used with one's leg, and body weight when sharply stomping down. This has an impact force that is far easier to loosen a tight or rusted lug nut off the wheel.
[0006]In summary, my "foot torque" uses a person's foot, leg and body weight to effortlessly loosen a lug nut, as apposed to possibly injuring one's hand, arm, shoulder or forbid their back, while attempting to change a tire.

NBA free agency has began and SURPRISE SURPRISE the major story is "where will Dwight Howard go?" Seems like we've been down this road a few times before, doesn't it? In spite of missing the playoffs last season and having a season with as much staged drama as any disgusting Hollywood reality show, the Lakers are desperate to have Dwight Howard re-sign with the franchise. With Kobe Bryant attempting a comeback from a devastating achilles injury and not getting any younger, building around Dwight Howard may be (gulp) the Lakers' best hope. To entice Howard into re-signing, the Lakers are going above and beyond in the shameless flattery department by launching a #STAYD12 social media campaign. The results are quite sad, actually... #STAYD12 pic.twitter.com/KvlGXZZzlb — Los Angeles Lakers (@Lakers) June 30, 2013 Good morning Los Angeles. #STAYD12 pic.twitter.com/7ofxSz1v0K — Los Angeles Lakers (@Lakers) June 29, 2013 "Those guys are hard to find.

Finland Closer to Backing Portugal Aid as True Finns Wait
Finland moved closer to supporting a bailout for Portugal as the parliament's biggest party decided to keep negotiations on Europe's crisis-handling tools separate from coalition talks with the euro-skeptic True Finns.
The parliament's grand committee, which comprises party representatives, will decide what Finland's stance on bailouts should be before a meeting of European Finance Ministers on May 16, two days before official coalition talks start, said Finance Minister Jyrki Katainen, who is leading government negotiations after his National Coalition Party won the most votes in the country's April 17 election.
"It would be detrimental for Finland to block a bailout," Katainen told reporters yesterday. "I'm going to defuse this impasse through talks with the parliamentary groups."
The True Finns, which became Finland's third-largest party last month, can join a pro-bailout government with a "clear conscience" provided a decision on Portugal is taken before a coalition is formed, party leader Timo Soini said on May 2. The Social Democrats, Finland's second-biggest party since the election, signaled this week it may back a bailout while the opposition Green League reiterated its support for Europe's rescue measures.
A `Workaround'
"This is a workaround," said Tuomo Martikainen, professor emeritus in political science at the University of Helsinki, by phone yesterday. "It allows the parties to save face. Without this measure, a government can't be formed and the parliament would be in paralysis."
The spread between Portuguese two-year notes and German bunds of the same maturity narrowed 28 basis points on the news yesterday to 994, the biggest decline since April 6, when the country said it will seek a bailout. The 10-year spread narrowed eight basis points to 630.
Portugal reached an agreement on a 78 billion-euro ($116 billion) bailout, Prime Minister Jose Socrates said in Lisbon yesterday. The three-year plan will give the country more time to reduce its budget deficit after it last month became the third euro member to seek a financial rescue.
Portuguese two-year spreads narrowed 65 basis points today to 929. Socrates didn't provide details on the interest rate that Portugal will pay for its rescue plan.
Finnish Stance
"If Finland has a stance on" the Portuguese bailout "by May 16, it's clear we don't have to negotiate this in government talks," Katainen said. "Then the laws will be processed in the parliament at a later date."
Finns are split in their view on bailouts, according to a TNS Gallup Oy survey published yesterday by Helsingin Sanomat. Thirty-eight percent back financial aid, 36 percent are opposed and a quarter undecided. The poll had a margin of error of about 3 percentage points.
Katainen said he still expects any government formed after May 18 to be a "responsible" coalition. Parties have until May 9 to respond to his questions on policy, he said. Government talks were originally scheduled to start on May 9.
Support for the True Finns rose by almost 15 percentage points to 19 percent in last month's election, after Soini promised to prevent taxpayer funds contributing to more bailouts. Katainen's pro-Europe National Coalition won 20.4 percent and the Social Democrats had 19.1 percent support.
Support Likely
"Although the euro-skeptic True Finns received a huge increase in votes at the April 17 election, there is a large pro-euro majority in parliament, so that support of the euro-area rescue measure by Finland is likely," Juergen Michels, chief euro-area economist at Citigroup in London, said in a note.
The Social Democrats, which voted against backing bailouts for Greece and Ireland, said May 2 Finland's next government needs to be "active" in helping stabilize Europe's economy and preventing future crises.
"If the True Finns are not in a position to block Portugal, then that is obviously going to be positive," Michala Marcussen, global head of economics in London at Societe Generale, said by phone yesterday. "The market sees the Finnish issue as being a delaying factor, but not a factor that would potentially put a complete stop to the bailout for Portugal. I think you would have seen a very different market reaction then."
Constructive Policy
European leaders still need to agree the details of how to bring the region's 440 billion-euro rescue facility to its full capacity.
"We trust that Finland can and will be part of a decision on the program of economic adjustment for Portugal," European Commission spokeswoman Amelia Torres told reporters in Brussels yesterday. "We trust Finland will continue pursuing effective and constructive European policy."
Katainen's announcement yesterday leaves open the question of whether Finland will ratify the permanent bailout mechanism that Europe's leaders had hoped to pass in June. Katainen declined to comment on whether he may end up in a government that could block the European Stability Mechanism.
Voters in the euro area's six AAA rated members are showing signs of dissatisfaction over funding bailouts for Europe's most indebted countries. German Chancellor Angela Merkel's Christian Democrats were punished in regional elections as Europe's biggest economy bears the brunt of funding rescue measures. France's anti-euro National Front leader Marine Le Pen may win more votes than President Nicolas Sarkozy in the first round of next year's election, some polls show.
"There's a concern that what's happened in Finland is not just a Finnish issue but a broader-based issue in Europe of discontent with the financial assistance programs," Marcusson said. "The risk is then that it will be harder to reach a permanent facility and leave Europe muddling along with a messy patchwork of solutions."

What is best known about Job is that Satan attacked the man, his children, and his livelihood. Job and his wife survived; everything else was gone. What is less well known is why Job was the target of Satan's attack. And therein lies the key to understanding spiritual warfare.
Job was a righteous man who "feared God and shunned evil" (Job 1:1). Satan targeted Job because he wanted to prove to God that righteous people will curse God when they are in difficulty. Satan wanted to get Job to change his attitude about God. He wanted Job to take his wife's advice and "curse God" (Job 2:9) because of what God allowed to happen. God had confidence in Job, however, and it was well founded. Job didn't curse God. Instead, he set out on a quest to understand what God was doing in his life. Satan's goal in spiritual warfare is not just to hurt us. His goal is to get us, because of our pain, to "curse God"—to stop believing in the goodness of God.
If you are hurting today, remember Job's story. Don't let your circumstances change your faith in God. Instead, resist the devil and submit to God's plan (James 4:7).
Scars are the price which every believer pays for his loyalty to Christ.

- Unsecured Debt – this means debt that is not secured with collateral. This may include credit card debt and medical bills.
- Secured Debt – Generally, secured debt will not be discharged in bankruptcy; however, some individuals may choose to forfeit the secured property, which may allow an individual to discharge the remaining debt.
Examples of Nondischargeable Debts
- Child support and alimony
- Student loans
- Most taxes – although there may be some exceptions.
People facing financial difficulties who hope to retain the equity they've established in a home or other property most often apply for Chapter 13 bankruptcy. Those who file for Chapter 13 bankruptcy often have regular income and can pay living expenses, but can't maintain scheduled payments on debts. In some cases the co-signers on any secured debts (such as a mortgage) may be protected under Chapter 13 as well.
Under Oklahoma law, Chapter 13 bankruptcy allows you to keep most of your property and spread out the time you have to pay down your debts (unlike Chapter 7 bankruptcy, which may involve the liquidation of assets). A bankruptcy trustee will work with you to establish a payment schedule that you can maintain without losing the equity you seek to protect. The schedules typically range between three and five years.
Oklahomans who have fallen on hard economic times — who find they have little or no money left after paying basic expenses (if they can meet those expenses) — may qualify for Chapter 7 bankruptcy protection. If unsecured debts like medical bills are putting you "underwater," we urge you to speak with us today about filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy.
The Chapter 7 bankruptcy process is quick and efficient. Unsecured debts may be completely discharged in a matter of months. Chapter 7 bankruptcy, however, may involve the liquidation of assets (unlike Chapter 13 bankruptcy, which may allow you to retain equity in an asset). Filing under Chapter 7 usually is not preferable for those with significant equity or wealth.
A debtor must qualify under a means test and complete a pre-filing session with a credit counselor. Chapter 7 bankruptcy may involve a liquidation sale of secured debts and assets. Oklahoma law provides certain exemptions from this liquidation process, including but not limited to:
- Your principal residence
- One motor vehicle worth up to $7,500
- Household and kitchen furniture
- Cemetery lots
- Tools for farming
- Livestock / farm animals
- Prescribed health aids

ATLANTA (AP) - The Georgia Legislature voted Friday to change the state flag to a version that echoes the Confederate battle emblem, but without the familiar Dixie cross that had led black lawmakers to promise an economic boycott.
Lawmakers agreed to quash any possibility of a referendum on reviving the Confederate battle emblem, which black lawmakers called a symbol of oppression and which had been a part of the bill.
If the measure is approved by Gov. Sonny Perdue, Georgia voters in March will choose between the temporary flag and the current Georgia flag.
Black lawmakers cheered and some wept when the bill passed. The Senate voted 33-23, and the House approved it 91-86, with the speaker casting the deciding vote. Ninety-one votes were the minimum for passage.
"This gives the people a flag based on history, but yet looking to the future," said Democratic Sen. George Hooks, a white Democrat who helped design the temporary banner.
Southern heritage advocates, who had pushed for the statewide referendum on the Confederate battle emblem flag, called the new flag a betrayal.
"We'll be making our displeasure known in short order," said Rusty Henderson of the Heritage Preservation Association.

When I tried to start my computer running Windows XP yesterday, as I turned on the screen it was stuck at the "Welcome" screen. I had to reset it. After that, I got stuck at the point where the BIOS should load the OS - I turn on the PC, the Motherboard and BIOS post message shows up, then the blinking "thing" in the top left corner shows up 2 seconds, then everything is black. After I let it run for some time in that mode, it automatically restarts.
I'm writing this here from a Ubuntu 9.10 Live CD.
- What can I do to fix this?
- How can I find out what is wrong?
I'm a programmer and okay with doing (very) advanced things in that terms, so if you know something just tell me and I'll try

The SCHS boys' soccer team needed to beat North Oldham on Thursday to earn the No. 2 seeding in the 16th District Tournament, which starts next week.
The Rockets (8-3-5, 2-0-2 in the district), did more than just win at North Oldham; they sent a message by dominating the Mustangs (6-10-1, 1-3), 4-0.
Scoring a combined eight goals in their last two games, the Rockets seem to have figured out their scoring issues.
Led by senior Stacey Eden's second-place finish, the SCHS boys' cross country team placed 10th out of 26 teams at the Greater Louisville Classic Saturday.
Eden's time of 15 minutes, 59 seconds was just behind Greenwood's Ryan Eaton, the defending state champion, but he held off challenges from Franklin County's Robert Sandlin and Apollo's Justin House.
Running on the fast track at E.P. "Tom" Sawyer Park in Louisville, the Rockets were just nine points behind ninth-place Manual.
In a way, Dorethea Richmond's history with the Whitney M. Young Job Corps Center was born before she was.
The property near Simpsonville where Whitney Young has rested for the past 37 years actually was purchased for the Lincoln Institute in 1909. And Richmond, an employee of the center's records department, has seen a lot of it.
Triple S Planning & Zoning on Tuesday night gave final approval for a housing development that has been in the works for more than two years.
The commission approved a preliminary plat for 17 lots for single-family homes in Estates of Notting Hill, which is being developed west of Simpsonville.
Shelby County High School senior Lana Jo Barnett was elected Homecoming queen for 2009.
Barnett was escorted across the field by an ROTC cadet to take her place of honor on the stage during halftime of Friday's game.
Barnett's crowning was a significant achievement for her. She was severely injured in a ATV accident in 2004.
As soon as the survivors of the Long Run Massacre started to drift into Linn Station, Col. John Floyd, as County Lieutenant charged with the defense of Jefferson County and command of its militia, gathered what men he could from his station, in present-day St. Matthews, and the nearby stations.
The SCHS girls' cross-country team placed 22nd out of 25 teams at the Greater Louisville Classic on Saturday at E.P. "Tom" Sawyer Park.
Running without their top runner, Caterina Karas, and two more of their usual top five, the girls had just two place in the top half of the 187 individual runners.
Like other customers at McDonald's restaurant at Governor's Square on Wednesday, Sam Neace was just passing through.
"I just stopped in to get a bite of breakfast on my way to Chicago," he said, taking a last sip of coffee before hitting the road again.
The SCHS girls' soccer team has hit a rough patch.
After winning six of their first seven, the girls are 1-3-1 over the last five games, and Coach Joe Turner seems to be at a loss.
"We just can't seem to get our act together," he said. "We seem to be struggling with the concept of team. We have a lot of talented players, but we just won't play together."
Most of the team's recent struggles have come on the offensive end. The Lady Rockets had 28 shots Monday against Western Hills but wound up with just a 3-0 victory.
Standout basketball player Darryl Hicks appears headed back to Shelby County High School.
Hicks, a freshman, had enrolled at North Oldham High School this year for better educational opportunities, according to his father Darryl Hicks Sr.

During the last year I have worked with many ISVs from all over Europe & Middle East helping them to (re)architect their solutions for a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) delivery model.
One thing stood out very clear. There's a gap that needs to be bridged between the classic application hosting provides (hosters) and the ISVs. The ISVs where expecting the hosters to provide far more than what most hosters actually could deliver. In Gianpaolo's blog post about the SaaS ecosystem, what the ISVs are looking for is referred to as a "SaaS hoster", but what does it actually take for a "classic hoster" to become a "SaaS hoster" and what does it take for an ISV to move from an on-premise to a SaaS delivery model in terms of hosting, re-selling etc? I found that there's a need to define clear interfaces between the two parties as well as providing guidance and reference architectures for both sides.
From the ISV side we invented the fictitious logo program "Designed for Hosting" (DfH) to describe a SaaS application that well architected (such as the Litware sample), well described in meta data, easy for hoster to re-package and re-sell as well as easy for a hoster to provision, manage and monitor.
ISVs need to focus on building competitive application functionality and therefore, in many cases, prefer to rent a "SaaS Hosting Platform" (SHP) that provides scalable, available, secure and interoperable application and platform services. Offering such SHP for rent provides a new business opportunity for hosters to "move up the stack" to become a "SaaS hoster".
Many hosters also act as aggregators or re-sellers of ISV applications so the DfH must, in addition to the operational aspects, also include the sales, aggregation and billing aspects.
I have, together with my virtual team, had many whiteboard discussions with solution architects (mainly from the ISV side), infrastructure architects (mainly from the hoster side), business owners/managers (from both ISV and re-seller and aggregator side) about what exactly DfH and SHP is (or rather should be). My colleague, Fred Chong, takes a stab at defining it here (even if we used the term SDP instead of SHP back then). We realize that this is a known concept in the Telco industry and that similar hosting and re-seller platforms exist as "carrier grade". However, our target was the ISV embarking the SaaS journey (after potentially spending decades in the on-premise world) as well as hosters moving from traditional web site hosting to SaaS application hosting. The consistent feedback from these groups is that they want to start small with a bare minimum of servers, and grow their infrastructure as their business grows. ISVs often also want to have a running instance of the SHP for internal use and testing so a light-version of provisioning, catalog etc is often asked for.
Finally we decided to invite a real ISV (www.sitecore.com) and a real hoster who operates both as aggregator as well as a platform provider under two brands (www.cohaesio.com and www.surftown.com) to do a joint three week hands-on Proof of Concept (PoC) with us. The goal of the project was to build a sample implementation of the central concepts of DfH and SHP (as we defined them). We discussed what it would take to make Microsoft's Litware sample and Sitecore's SaaS edition "designed for hosting" and what Cohaesio and Surftown's SaaS Hosting platform offering should look like to be able to host and re-sell Sitecore as well as any other SaaS application.
In a series of blog posts over the next 1-2 weeks, I will go through some initial thoughts, my findings from the engagements and the six main scenarios we ended up implementing in the joint lab:
1. Defining the application platform run-time instances and its capabilities
2. Defining the application meta data and adding a new ISV (or platform tenant) and its application and modules (or just "software items") to an new or existing platform run-time instance
3. Managing the re-sellers hosting plans in the store front to include software items from the new application
4. Order fulfillment and order management in the store front and provisioning for new application tenants (subscribe)
5. Usage metering and billing for the application tenants
6. Accessing the application with web single sign-on and federated web single sign-on
Expect to see ISV and Sitecore specific aspects of this session at Lars Fløe Nielsen's (Solutions Architect at Sitecore) blog as well.
Thanks to all the great minds that have provided feedback and/or directly contributed to the various architectural design sessions and proof of concepts engagements over the past year:
· The folks at Microsoft (Gianpaolo, Fred, Yuriy, Kevin, Mario, Jimmy & Bo).
· The entire team from Sitecore, Cohaesio and Surftown.
· The CxOs, architects, developers etc from all the "anonymous" ISVs that have visited me in the Innovation Centre with interesting SaaS offerings or otherwise inspired me along the way.

The Reserve Bank has left the official cash rate unchanged at
its record low of 2.5 per cent.
In the latest economist survey there was 42 per cent support
for an increase in the OCR from 2.5 to 2.75 per cent today
and 19 per cent support for an even higher rate.
Support for keeping rates on hold today dropped to 39 per
cent from 55 per cent when the bank last reviewed the OCR six
weeks ago.
New Zealand's economic expansion has considerable momentum.
Prices for New Zealand's export commodities remain very high,
especially for dairy products.
Consumer and business confidence are strong and the rapid
rise in net inward migration over the past year has added to
consumption and housing demand. Construction activity is
being lifted by the Canterbury rebuild and by work in
Auckland to address the housing shortage. Continued fiscal
consolidation will partly offset the strength in demand. GDP
grew by 3.5 per cent in the year to September, and growth is
expected to continue around this rate over the coming year.
While agricultural export prices are expected to come off
their peak levels, overall export demand should benefit from
improving growth in the global economy. However, improvements
in the major economies have required exceptional monetary
accommodation and there remains uncertainty about the timing
of withdrawal of this stimulus and its effects, especially on
emerging market economies.
Annual CPI inflation was 1.6 per cent in 2013, and
forward-looking measures of firms' pricing intentions have
been rising. Construction costs are increasing and risk
feeding through to broader costs in the economy.
At the same time, there appears to have been some moderation
in the housing market in recent months. The high exchange
rate continues to dampen inflation in the traded goods
sector, but the Bank does not believe the current level of
the exchange rate is sustainable in the long run.
While headline inflation has been moderate, inflationary
pressures are expected to increase over the next two years.
In this environment, there is a need to return interest rates
to more-normal levels. The Bank expects to start this
adjustment soon.
The Bank remains committed to increasing the OCR as needed to
keep future average inflation near the 2 per cent target
mid-point. The scale and speed of the rise in the OCR will
depend on future economic indicators.
Graeme Wheeler is set to deliver the Reserve Bank's quarterly
Monetary Policy Statement on March 13.
NZIER economist Kirdan Lees said earlier this week that
waiting until March to lift rates would give Wheeler the
chance to use a full suite of communication tools - including
a monetary policy statement, press conference and select
committee testimony - to tell the public why interest rates
need to go up.
"But the economy is building up steam. Business confidence is
soaring, consumers are ready to spend and the Canterbury
rebuild will pressure inflation higher over 2014 and beyond.
Loan-to-value restrictions also need help to slow the pace of
house price rises in Auckland," he said.

I received an unexpected email from my hosting company which told me they'd put an limit of max_connections = 1 on the MySQL database in order to cease a very high load on the server.
They say: "Practically this limit does not allow any MySQL operations for your DB user 'wordpress'.
"Our system engineers investigated the reasons for the high load and they discovered that it was caused by the extremely heavy MySQL operations performed by exec-comms.com. Here are the queries we detected at the time of the high server load:

table | SELECT * FROM wp_bas_visitors, wp_bas_refer, wp_bas_ua, wp_bas_os WHERE referer = referer_id AND osy |
There then follows 17 nearly identical lines, concluding:
"Here is a sample of the detected slow queries:

I'm assuming the reference to iTunes might be a podcast related issue? I run Podpress and have created approx eith 5min long podcasts.
Has anyone experience with this?

I love the last box. So good. Very... Evil looking. Your ladders are great!! They are pretty realistic!
Ehhh that panel. I messed up the shading, but I'm glad you like it.
I didn't notice any mistakes. I thought it was great!
Ah, you'll see them the older you get. This was about a year ago, and I see the mistakes already.
The one thing I really hate is when I publish a story to the school newspaper and then I see the mistakes.
Aw, yeah. Do you use spell check? Usually that helps.
I usually do, but a lot if times it won't recognize my names as words. For example I'm writing a novel and the main characters are named Aila and Aedus. It always tries to change them to random words. So annoying. O_O

The note, worth less than $3, depicts an image of a statue of
Apollo riding a four-horse chariot atop the Bolshoi Theatre,
one of Russia's main cultural symbols.
"You can see clearly that Apollo is naked, you can see his
genitalia," Roman Khudyakov, a member of parliament for the
nationalist LDPR party, told Reuters Television.
"I submitted a parliamentary request and forwarded it
directly to the head of the central bank asking for the
banknote to be brought into line with the law protecting
children and to remove this Apollo."
He said he had been stirred into action when he saw two
children looking at the banknote: "The girl screamed at the
boy: 'Can you see that? I told you, there is a penis here!'.
I was shocked, you know."
The call coincides with growing conservatism in President
Vladimir Putin's third term, during which he has courted the
Russian Orthodox Church. What is widely described as anti-gay
legislation has also been passed banning the promotion of
"non-traditional" relations to minors.
The Bolshoi itself made headlines by covering the genitalia
of the huge Apollo statue with a figleaf when it reopened in
2011 after a scandal-marred restoration that took more than
six years and $700 million.
Khudyakov's proposal triggered a wave of satire on the
Internet, with some users joking it must have been the first
time a lawmaker had seen a 100-rouble banknote as they are
reported to deal with much larger sums.
The central bank had no immediate comment.

Specifically, is The Courier subject to stealth boy abuse? I've actually been very hesitant to use stealth boys in New Vegas because of what they did to the nightkin -- and my fear that they might do so to me.
No, the effects of long-term Stealth Boy abuse, both positive and negative, as seen in the Nightkin will not manifest for the Courier in Fallout: New Vegas.
This is confirmed by Doctor Henry in Jacobstown, if asked, he informs the Courier that he has never seen Nightkin-style Stealth-boy-schizophrenia manifest itself in a human.
I don't have a definitive answer for New Vegas, but in all the other Fallout games the stealth boys have no negative effects. Additionally, in terms of gameplay, any "negative" effects they might have will mostly likely be a net positive for a player as they will manifest as a perk.

Thrill-Seekers' Natural Wonder
Published: October 12, 1997
(Page 2 of 2)
Zimbabwe officials, however, have declined to put the brakes on all development and have instead asked each potential builder to submit an environmental impact statement until a master plan is developed. Zimbabwe remains a poor country, and Victoria Falls has the country's fastest-growing local economy at the moment.
Some efforts have been made, however, to curb the proliferation of rides and cruises. The Town Council Executive, Godfrey Maphosa, said the Government had put a freeze on new boat licenses and is charging fees to companies that want to lead rafting tours. But the point is to guide development, not stop it.
The first white person to see the falls was the missionary explorer David Livingstone, who in 1860, perhaps a bit carried away, described them thus: ''The morning sun gilds these columns of watery smoke with all the glowing colors of double or treble rainbows. The evening sun from a hot yellow sky imparts a sulfurous hue, and gives one the impression that the yawning gulf might resemble the mouth of the bottomless pit.''
The first tourists arrived at the turn of the century. The original Victoria Falls Hotel was begun in 1904, and it is still possible to enjoy a gin fizz on the back veranda of the brick Edwardian structure, which has 185 rooms. Thanks to a recent renovation in the British Empire style, it is even possible to raise your glass in a toast to King George V and Queen Mary, whose portraits now hang in the lobby.
But the guards are always on watch for campers from the trailer park nearby who, as one hotel administrator put it, ''try to sneak in their grubby shorts and filthy socks and use the swimming pool with our guests or do their laundry in our bathrooms.''
SINCE part of our vacation was the ride there by steam train, we stayed in Vic Falls for only two days with our two children, Avery, 11, and Galen, 7 -- and we went in for the amusement park aspects. The first day we were in line at the helicopter pad by 9 A.M. -- a minibus fetches you from your hotel -- and didn't regret it a bit.
It's over in 15 minutes. The pilot doesn't even say hello. But you get a far better understanding of the size of the fissures in the earth that created the falls and the gorges around it than you ever could by walking the rims of them.
We spent late morning wandering around the town, though it really has little to offer. I probably shouldn't admit it, but we did have lunch at the Wimpy's. There are a couple of other South African chains on the order of Steak and Brew, but none had chairs outdoors like the Wimpy's.
From inside the gardens of the Victoria Falls Hotel, one would never know there is another building in town. The view over the back lawn is of the Batonka Gorge below the falls and the graceful railroad bridge crossing it. One could argue that the bridge, built on the orders of Cecil Rhodes, the diamond magnate and empire-builder, to further his dream of linking the Cape to Cairo, was the first manmade object to ruin the view. But gin-sippers are more likely to grumble about the sight of bungee-jumpers hopping off it every 20 minutes or so, despite the fact that, even with binoculars, they are mere specks at the ends of threads.
To preserve its Old World colonial atmosphere, the hotel has no meeting rooms for conventions, and its shunts families with children off to rooms at the end of long hallways and bars them from the main restaurant after 8 P.M. (The little predators can gorge at the Jungle Junction barbecue.)
The rooms are large, decorated in beige tones with big tubs. The hotel is only two stories tall, so one feel quite close to the large lawns, which sometimes have monkeys and warthogs on them -- they wander in the gate from the falls side.
The management is sniffy about its neighbors -- the modern, 97-room Makasa Sun next door does accept conventions and contains a casino. The large, gray, thatched-roof Elephant Hills Inter-Continental upstream, about two miles out of town, is described by the Lonely Planet guidebook, the best around, as resembling a stack of egg cartons or a prison and having a reputation as the ugliest building in Zimbabwe.
Some things about the area haven't changed in centuries. On the path between the fence surrounding the Victoria Falls Hotel and the fence surrounding the park around the falls, one steps over what sure looks like elephant dung. A hotel security guard on the path confirms it -- not only elephants but buffalo, two of the most dangerous animals in Africa, regularly wander through.
Fear of lawsuits is not as great in Africa as it is in America. Even here, you should know there are wild animals around. If you get stomped, it's largely your problem.
Once one reaches the falls, the view is as extraordinary as Livingstone found it. The only irritating interruption along the path is a brass plaque put up by followers of the guru Sri Chinmoy declaring the falls one of the guru's ''peace monuments,'' as if he somehow could lay claim to them.
Unlike Niagara, which falls off an escarpment and so can be seen from miles away, the Victoria Falls plunge into a huge crack in the earth, so one must get up close. The path runs for about a mile along the face of the falls. How much water pours over varies dramatically by the time of year.
The Zambezi rises in northwest Zambia, with many headstreams in the jungles of Angola. During the rainy season, around November to April, there are times when 17 million cubic feet of water per minute go over the falls. So much mist fills the air that it drips from the trees in rivulets, and in some places, the mist itself falls like rain. Even on a hot day, you can be soaked to the bone and quite chilly. That is when a visitor is grateful for one tourist development, one that happens on a modest scale and benefits a local man. Right next to the Coca-Cola and ice-cream sellers in the parking lot, there he is -- renting slickers.

Former Gov. Ted Strickland will not challenge Gov. John Kasich in next year's gubernatorial contest.
Strickland, a Democrat, announced his decision Tuesday, ending speculation about a rematch of a race that he lost by two percentage points three years ago to Republican Kasich.
"Frances [his wife] and I will continue to be politically active, private citizens," Strickland said in a statement. "We will continue to stand with working men and women to build a stronger Ohio — and to defeat anti-worker and anti-middle-class legislation that may arise."
The decision leaves a handful of potential Democratic challengers in 2014. Former Attorney General Richard Cordray, Cuyahoga County executive Ed FitzGerald and U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan of Niles, D-13th, are among those interested in running for governor next year.
Ryan "will decide in the near future which path he will pursue to best serve the people of his community, state and country," according to his campaign.
In a separate statement, Ryan praised Strickland for his "deep concern and understanding for the challenges faced by Ohio's poor and working-class families. I believe those traits, as well as his clear vision for Ohio and steady hand in tumultuous times would have served him well in the upcoming contest for governor. But I know too that Gov. Strickland will find a way to put his considerable talents to work helping his fellow citizens."
In his statement Tuesday, Strickland defended his administration's work to improve the state and set the stage for economic recovery.
"With the help of President [Barack] Obama, who provided the funds necessary to keep Ohio and all of America from slipping into another Great Depression, we were able to preserve the social safety net, make important investments in education and position Ohio's economy for the recovery that started in February 2010," he said.
He added, "In short, I believe my administration stood and spoke for the causes that count."
Ohio Republican Party Chairman Bob Bennett said, "It will be hard for any Democrat to argue why [Kasich] shouldn't continue to create jobs for hardworking Ohio families and put Ohio back on the right track."
With Strickland's announcement, Ohio Democratic Party Chairman Chris Redfern said that "strong Democratic officeholders," without naming names, can now focus on challenging Kasich's record.
Hey Bennett WHAT JOBS ? I really haven't noticed any from this Administration. V&M plant was down under Strickland. Lordstown 3RD shift Strickland again, and the Gas and Oil goes to the PROPERTY OWNERS. Which I am one.
I'll vote for who runs against this person and his arrogant ways ! He'll be moving from that High Rise where he conducts the States Bussiness.
This is the first smart decision that old Teddy boy has made in his political career. Go Governor Kasich.
Tim0thy Not all jobs are aimed at this blighted valley. I know that all you the liberals can see. But there is a whole other part of this state .too.
If little Timmy runs for Governor , he should be made to resign his seat in congress first. Why should the taxpayer pay him for not doing that job. If he's out on the campaign trail he isn't doing his congressional job correctly.
Have to agree with timOthy on this. I was REALLY hoping Strickland was going to run. SOMEONE has to run against Kasich.

BALTIMORE, Md. -- Proclaiming a sense of new energy and empowerment, the nation's Roman Catholic bishops on Wednesday issued instructions to Catholic voters that their eternal salvation could be at stake when they cast ballots.
Bishops emphasized that voters must consider the church's teachings on abortion and other moral issues when they select a candidate for the White House or any other office. If they don't, bishops said, it's not clergy who will judge them but God.
"It is important to be clear that the political choices faced by citizens have an impact on general peace and prosperity and also the individual's salvation," the bishops said in the document, titled "Faithful Citizenship." "Similarly, the kinds of laws and policies supported by public officials affect their spiritual well-being."
Bishops have drafted a similar document every four years since the 1976 presidential election, when concerns centered on Soviet dominance in Eastern Europe and recovery from the Watergate scandal. But the guidelines issued Wednesday for the first time spelled out possible consequences as well as giving much more nuanced instruction to the Catholic electorate than in years past.
Voters are implored not to seek pro-choice political candidates but also advised that views on abortion should not be the sole factor. Catholics should also weigh church teaching on such moral issues as immigration, just war and poverty, bishops said.
Bishop Robert Baker of Birmingham, Ala., praised the document, which he says "gets to the guts of the moral and conscience formation."

CVS Health now able to dispense naloxone without prescription in Lone Star State
In addition to Texas, CVS Pharmacy locations in 30 other states will be able to dispense naloxone to patients without an individual prescription by August 2016.
In addition to Texas, CVS Pharmacy locations in 30 other states will be able to dispense naloxone to patients without an individual prescription by August 2016.
In addition to a significant reduction in readmissions, the health plan savings doubled the initial investment into the program.
The program will provide clinicians with the messages, tools and counseling protocols needed to screen for secondhand smoke exposure.
Patients can now see a MinuteClinic nurse practitioner or physician assistant for a pre-travel risk assessment in advance of their trip and receive an individualized plan for prevention and treatment.
In addition to being able to pick up their prescription medications at the mobile pharmacy, customers can also receive recommended vaccines, such as Tdap, which protects against tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis, CVS Pharmacy noted.
As it continues to evolve, CVS Health's MinuteClinic is taking the concept of walk-in health care to a new level.
More than a decade after they began to appear in community pharmacies across the country, retail clinics have become a key provider of health care to millions of Americans.
Making emotional connections with one's team — connecting with the head and leading with the heart — is a key element in nurturing future leaders, according to George Coleman, VP health care at CVS, at Drug Store News' Future Leaders Summit.
At the end of May, Drug Store News and Mack Elevation Forum co-hosted the first Future Leaders Summit in Chicago. Our in-depth special report appears in the July 2016 issue.
"In the 12 years since [Eileen Howard Boone joined CVS Health], she's become the embodiment of the alignment between the company's profitmaking and philanthropic goals," CSM wrote.

Product Description
Based upon the Singapore method of teaching mathematics, Math in Focus features a problem-based approach that builds on a concrete-to-pictorial-to-abstract progression. Within each grade fewer topics are taught, but at a more in-depth level; visual representations, modeling strategies, and a development of conceptual understanding, place value, and computation fluency help students to understand the "how" behind their exercises.
The consumable student workbooks provide practice, assessment, and skill-development exercises. In the textbooks, cheery illustrations and easy-to-understand lessons give kids a fun atmosphere to work in. Each chapter includes "Put on Your Thinking Cap" problem solving exercises and multi-chapter cumulative reviews.
The first semester of third grade (3A) helps children work on numbers, addition, & subtraction to 10,000; estimation; bar models; multiplication tables of 6, 7, 8, & 9; division; and more. The second semester (3B) covers money; metric length & volume; measurement; bar graphs & line plots; fractions; length & weight; time & temperature; shapes; area & perimeter; and more.
Grade 3.
Please Note: This product is only available for purchase by homeschools, consumers, and public institutions.

Well, then, this program is for you! Many homeschoolers have found Singapore Math to be difficult to understand and difficult to explain. MIF provides wonderful explanations, visually stimulating texts, and wonderful opporunities to practice and "think outside of the box." My 3rd grader loves math! Which makes this homeschool mom smile! The teacher's manual is pricey. It would be helpful to those that struggle in explaining math, but it is not necessary. The Student Books provide adequate explanations of the concept and plenty of opportunities for practice. Unlike previous MIF grade levels, a chaper review/test is not included in the student workbook, so it would be advisable to purchase the assessments components of the program.
