WASHINGTON – All D.C. municipal buildings have been ordered to take part in a program where soda machines will be labeled with calorie counts, The Washington Examiner reports.
The aim is to get District workers to pick healthier drinks, Mayor Vincent Gray reportedly tells News Channel 8.
The American Beverage Association will provide the labels for the machines as part of the Calories Count Vending Program. Each drink machine button will list the calories in the drink.
On a related note, Ward 3 D.C. Councilwoman Mary Cheh wants to see more healthy products in government vending machines. She has proposed that 30 percent of food items be healthy and that 30 percent of drinks be either water or fruit juice, with the percentage rising to 50 percent a year later.
There are 4,000 federal and municipal government vending machines in the District, the Examiner says.

The Forest Service admits publicly that it has gone through a billion dollars fighting fires this year. Yet the agency still hasn't made a comparatively cheap phone call to apologize for procuring, for itself, my ham sandwich.
I'd even settle for an e-mail if the Forest Service wants to save the long-distance charges.
It seems to me, though, that given the federal government's extravagant spending habits a severe illness of which the Forest Service's fire outlay is but a minor symptom the outfit could spring for one of those cards that plays a song when you open it.
I'll bet the feds could raise a billion just by rooting for change between their sofa cushions.
That billion-dollar firefighting tab has spawned a passel of headlines during the past week but that figure, despite its wealth of zeros, means little to me.
Possibly this is because none of those dollars has come straight from my wallet. At least no one wearing a bright yellow shirt and clutching a shovel has banged on my door and asked me to pitch in a few bucks.
The ham sandwich episode, though, really hurt.
I was taking my annual trip through the sagebrush steppe of Southeastern Oregon, traveling with my dad, Alan, my son, Alexander, and my nephew, Andrew (which I realize is quite a lot of capital A's, now that I see them scrolled across the screen).
We'd driven most of the way around Harney Lake on Sunday afternoon. Which is to say we had accumulated 60 miles of alkali dust, most of it in my eyes. When we got back to Burns we were hungry. And gritty. Andrew, given the choice in deference to his being the youngest of our quartet (he's 10), picked Subway. This sounded good to me.
I started thinking how delicious a ham-and-cheddar would taste, the cheese oozing over the bottom slice of browned bread after the sandwich's stint in the toaster oven.
I noticed the sign right off when we walked in. It was printed in black letters on a sheet of white paper taped to the curved plastic shield that prevents customers from sneezing all over the pickles and the lettuce.
The gist of this notice was that the restaurant had laid every slice of its ham on sandwiches that went to the firefighters working on the Silvies River blaze northwest of town.
Also the toaster oven was busted.
The sign didn't so much as imply a link between the appliance's failure and the recent arrival of several hundred firefighters.
But I know better.
Anyway I settled for prime rib nudged to a tepid state in the microwave.
It was next morning at breakfast when I first read about the Forest Service's billion-dollar outlay.
This got me to thinking about what I and all those other taxpayers are getting for our money (I already knew what some of us are not getting, which is ham sandwiches).
Most of us aren't getting an insurance check after our house burns down, for one thing.
Nonetheless, I've visited a few fire camps and what I saw there convinced me that the Forest Service and the BLM and the myriad other agencies that put out wildfires could get by with, say, 10 percent less stuff and still protect the public and its property.
Stuff like helicopters, for instance, which are considerably more expensive than ham sandwiches.
We saw one of those a helicopter, not a ham sandwich dumping water on a lightning fire on the west flank of Steens Mountain on Saturday afternoon.
The fire was creeping around, in what seemed to me desultory fashion, amid sagebrush and grass and juniper. Which pretty accurately describes about 200 million acres in Southeastern Oregon. Yet the federal government by which I mean myself and a lot of other people who like money, and ham sandwiches was doling out at least a few thousand dollars per hour to dump water on a fire that burned 205 acres.
I don't mean to contend that the money was wasted.
Maybe the helicopter spared 50,000 acres on the Steens, which ranks high on my list of Oregon's greatest natural treasures. Maybe a crew of 10 firefighters, which even combined command much more modest wages than a single chopper, couldn't have stopped the fire.
That all rings false to me, though.
Fire's no enemy to the sagebrush steppe, certainly it's no coincidence that the greenest patches of desert come spring are in many cases the patches that burned the summer before.
Anyway it seemed to me that the helicopter was an awfully large and costly tool to handle such a diminutive task sort of like renting a backhoe to plant a few petunias.
I doubt, though, that this year's billion-dollar firefighting budget will be the Forest Service's last.
I think Americans, in the main, consider fire a destructive, negative force rather than a restorative and desirable one. Sometimes they're right.
But so long as this is the case, the federal government, as it has for most of the past century, will continue to respond to wildfires much as it does to wars with a blank check.
Fire bosses haven't much incentive to skimp, certainly. If, for instance, the official who called in the helicopter to pour water on the Steens fire had decided he didn't need that aircraft, the chopper probably would have flown to another fire, gulping taxpayer-supplied fuel all the way.
Money never gets saved in such a system it just gets spent somewhere else.
I don't want the Forest Service and other agencies to stop fighting all fires. Or even most fires.
But I'd appreciate it if the federal government acknowledged that it can manage, many times, with just a bit less money.
Ten percent of what's in your wallet might seem a paltry figure, but apply it to $1 billion and you've got $100 million.
Which would pay for a fair number of helicopters.
And a whole lot of ham.

I feel we have a lot in common; I come from a family of freelancers, too. I don't know about you, but I think this must have an impact on the we live.
TT It's great to meet other freelance kids. I wonder if our parents have met in the biz. It really is a lifestyle and definitely something you're born into. The pioneering spirit I guess, or just bohemian—but with less vagabondry and more drive to complete things. It's had an impact on my life both good and bad. Bad being, it was always feast or famine, and also missing my dad because he worked such wacky hours. The plus being the art of the hustle. That sounds corny, but it's true. Being proprietary has to be in your genes. I meet a lot of people who stick to the straight-and-narrow and that's great. I often wish I could stay put, but there's a compulsion to keep moving. Ultimately though, I think it's an asset. I just see more opportunity in the freelance lifestyle. The idea of working your way up from the mail room seems laughable, mostly because of the huge divergence between the haves and have-nots. It's also essential because of the web—that was the game changer. It's especially true in this weird post-internet phase. There's such an amazing network to cultivate your talents, then broadcast them out to the universe. How can you not be inspired to do something?
So you feel like you have to always be working?
TT Yes, always. When you find something you enjoy doing, you naturally want to get better at it, maybe even be the best. So practice and fine tuning are essential to any designer's integrity. Same as evolution to an artist. It's a conversation with yourself and others—and you should try to make it a good one! I've always been inspired by the original Conan the Barbarian from 1982 and John Boorman's Excalibur. In both films there's these themes of a quest. The search. In one it's for revenge and the other for the Grail (which initself is a crazy metaphor) but I feel like that can parallel so many people's lives. Everybody seeks something. But specific to artists it can be alienating and often debilitating; it can eclipse everything. Yet there's so much satisfaction in the journey and it can be a noble endeavor, you know? A focused adventure can yield such absolute awe.
How did the Rhonda fliers start?
TT I've been working with Rhonda for maybe three years now. Loren [Granic] had been doing most of the previous designs. I had been to the club and it was a blast, I loved it—total Dionysian revelry. So when they put the word out they were looking for a new designer I jumped on it. My tryout was a flyer for "Hercules & Love Affair" and "In Flagranti," and I've been on the team since. I work closely with Loren and [Gregory Alexander] on everything. They've always had an amazing vision and I've worked to help them bring it into focus. In the beginning the flyers were more random, but I've helped guide them to a more consistent look and feel.
Rhonda is a fantastic character. It's always revolved around her voice. Like a beacon to Clubland. She's exotic and beautiful but also the Queen—so don't fuck with her. The core theme has always been polysexual hard partying and I think the flyers strive to reflect that. There's continual use of bold text, which underscores her dominance. Bright colors or stark black/white, excessive patterns and a rotating collage of imagery pertaining to music, sexuality, sensuality, reverence, decadence, identity, fashion and glamour. But mostly it's just an organic thing. Over time the look has changed because Rhonda has evolved. Different venues, DJs, events and perception of herself factor into the look. It's also about respect for the music and culture. Keeping an honest dialogue with the past while simultaneously exploring new ideas for the future.
What's coming up next?
TT Rhonda's always keeping me busy. She's got Coachella, SXSW, the expansion of Rhonda International Records and of course the monthly party collateral. As for the bigger arc? I just want to keep producing great work. To collaborate with gifted people who push the boundaries and can see the big picture. Adding visually and conceptually to the bubbling scene in Los Angeles and establishing a better presence on the web. I also plan on putting aside more time to focus on personal work. And last I'd like to start lending my talents to some philanthropic causes. To not offer effective design to people in need would be unconscionable.
A Club Called Rhonda is gearing up for her first date with UK house heavyweight Julio Bashmore, making his first LA appearance alongside LA's own Total Freedom, Samo Sound Boy, Delroy Edwards, and residents GODDOLLARS, Paradise and James Del Barco at Club Los Globos tonight (December 14th).

Uniondale, NY (Sports Network) - Brooks Orpik's first career playoff goal was
an overtime winner, as his point drive with 7:49 played in the extra session
sent the Pittsburgh Penguins to a series victory over the New York Islanders
in Game 6 of this Eastern Conference quarterfinal.
Tyler Kennedy set up the winner, skating with his back to the Isles' net into
the left circle, before passing back to Orpik for a blistering one-timer that
Evgeni Nabokov had no chance to stop.
Paul Martin tied the game late in regulation for the Penguins, who took the
set four games to two and will face the seventh-seeded Ottawa Senators in the
second round.
Jarome Iginla and Pascal Dupuis also lit the lamp to back a 35-save
performance from Tomas Vokoun, who acquitted himself well in his second
straight start.
John Tavares, Colin McDonald and Michael Grabner tallied for the Islanders,
who were bidding to take Pittsburgh to a deciding Game 7 on Sunday. Nabokov
ended with just 17 saves in the season-ending defeat.

As you cannot physically change the speed of your Internet connection, ONSPEED uses a technology called Content Sensitive Compression ('CSC') to individually compress each element of a web page or email using various compression algorithms based on a patent approved proprietary technology. The end result is that your web pages and emails (PC only) load and download faster using your existing Internet connection.
When your web browser requests a web page, the ONSPEED software redirects that request to the ONSPEED compression servers. They take the respective web page content, compress it and send it back down to the ONSPEED software which decompresses it and sends it to the browser requesting the information.
ONSPEED offers a unique, patented technology called "Advanced Imaging", enabling you to receive fully viewable and instantly usable web pages, while maintaining the maximum quality of images. Advanced Imaging delivers all images on a page simultaneously. You continue to browse web pages while images are being progressively loaded. Image quality progressively improves until images have reached lossless quality.
ONSPEED's dedicated algorithms compress the following elements:
- Text
- HTML objects
- Photo-realistic images (e.g. Compressed and uncompressed JPEG, PNG, Compressed and uncompressed GIF, and BMP)
- Line art and drawings (e.g. GIF, BMP)
- Animated objects (GIF)
- Office documents (Word, Excel, PowerPoint)
- Macromedia Flash
If a web page or email contains information that is not covered by a dedicated algorithm, ONSPEED will apply a generic compression algorithm to that data element.
Once installed, you will not even notice ONSPEED is there.
ONSPEED runs in the background speeding up your Internet connection automatically. While information is being downloaded from or uploaded to the Internet you will notice the ONSPEED icon rotating in the system tray (located in the lower right-hand corner of the desk top). This indicates that ONSPEED is working and compressing the data.
ONSPEED can also be easily turned on and off. This can be done from the taskbar or in the browser menu-bar.

Marton, Attila; Avital, Michel; Blegind Jensen, Tina (Frederiksberg, 2013)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Recent developments in the techniques and technologies of collecting, sharing and analysing data are challenging the field of information systems (IS) research let alone the boundaries of organizations and the established practices of decision-making. Coined 'open data' and 'big data', these developments introduce an unprecedented level of societal and organizational engagement with the potential of computational data to generate new insights and information. Based on the commonalities shared by open data and big data, we develop a research framework that we refer to as open big data (OBD) by employing the dimensions of 'order' and 'relationality'. We argue that these dimensions offer a viable approach for IS research on open and big data because they address one of the core value propositions of IS; i.e. how to support organizing with computational data. We contrast these dimensions with two other categories that stem from computer science and engineering, namely 'big/small' and 'open/closed' to address the complex interplay between people and data, social interaction and technological operations. Thus conceived, this paper contributes an alternative approach for the study of open and big data as well as laying the theoretical groundwork for its future empirical research.

Three papers laying the foundation for regional CGE models with agglomeration characteristicsTermansen, Lars Brømsøe (Frederiksberg, 2008)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The paper analyses the effects of introducing taxes and regional transfers on the equilibrium properties in a standard Core-Periphery model. A central government levies taxes on production factors and redistributes the revenue to all agents regardless of their location. In the case of Core-Periphery economy this is in effect a re-allocation of agglomeration rents. Simulations show that taxes and transfers alter the Core-Periphery model's properties by moving the Break and Sustain points. The range of freeness of trade with Core-Periphery outcomes is reduced for transfers to the periphery, and increased for transfers to the core. The width of the overlap where the models exhibit hysteresis effects remains the same regardless of the transfers. The analysis reveals that in the Core-Periphery outcome the agglomeration rents can be taxed without exhausting the core's scale effects. The tax revenues can then be redistributed such that periphery regions and the central government have incentives in promoting core regions, which function as industrial locomotives for the whole economy.

How Regional Characteristics Affect External Knowledge Acquisition and InnovationMasciarelli, Francesca; Prencipe, Andrea; Laursen, Keld (København, 2007)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: To introduce new products and processes, firms often acquire knowledge from other organizations. Drawing on social capital and transaction cost theory, we argue that not only is the impact of such acquisitions on the successful development of product and product innovations dependent on strategic and economic variables, it may also be contingent on the "knowledge characteristics" of the geographical area in which the firm is located. Combining data on social capital at the level of 21 regions with a large scale data set on innovative activities by a representative sample of 2464 Italian manufacturing firms, we find — after controlling for a large set of firm and regional characteristics — that being located in regions characterized by high levels of social interaction leads to a higher propensity to innovate. In addition, being located in an area characterized by a high degree of social interaction positively moderates the effectiveness of externally acquired R&D on innovation inclination.

Abstract: Fremvæksten af modus 2 forskning stiller krav om en revurdering af højere læreanstalters evaluerings- og meriteringspraksis. Den endimensionale prioritering af modus 1 forskning såvel som dennes ligeså endimensionale evaluering via publikationer må afvises som utidssvarende. Som en konsekvens heraf udvikles en konkret model til evaluering af forskningsmiljøers modus 2 indsats. Modellen kan støtte strategiske budgetteringsovervejelser på de højere læreanstalter og i samfundet som helhed. Modellen søger ikke at vurdere modus 2 forskningens værdi, men tilstræber derimod alene en modus 2 aktivitetsregistrering under den i såvel modus 1 som modus 2 konceptet iboende forudsætning, at forskningen bedst værdisættes af interessenterne. De strategiske budgetteringsovervejelser og den heraf følgende ressourceallokering til forskningsmiljøerne foregår under den realistiske forudsætning, at højere læreanstalter fungerer som heterogene konglomerater præget af urelateret diversificering, hvorfor principperne fra den strategiske porteføljeplanlægning kan anvendes.

Leander, Anna (København, 2006)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper focuses on the way PMCs shape security policies and more generally political priorities. Linking up with classical thinking about "civil-military relations", it suggests that preoccupation with security professionals' role in shaping politics is as important when these professionals are privately organised in PMCs as it is when they are enrolled in public armed forces. The paper shows that existing regulation has not been adjusted to account for this fact and that the significance of regulating PMCs' role in shaping politics is profoundly underestimated. It therefore argues that putting the issue of regulating "civil-PMCs relations" on the agenda is essential. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/7019

Abstract: We study the optimal regulation of banking groups ("banks"), taking both minimum capital requirements and legal structure into account. A bank can set up either as one legal unit facing limited liability jointly (branch structure) or as a bank holding company with subsidiaries (subsidiary structure). Banks are exposed to risk from their unobservable asset choices and to exogenous risk from their environment. We show that banks with branches are more prudent in normal times than banks with subsidiaries, but are also less prudent when problems arise. A regulator that observes banks' exogenous risk should optimally determine both capital requirements and legal structure. If the exogenous risk is private information to banks, it can be optimal to screen banks according to risk by setting capital requirements appropriately, and letting banks choose their legal structure.

Abstract: In many OECD countries, a seller has a right to reimbursement of VAT (RVAT) she has paid on goods sold, but for which she has not yet received payment. Such reimbursement of VAT on receivables is economically inefficient. It leads to: * Distortion of credit markets, by subsidizing direct credit at the cost of financial intermediaries. * Price discrimination, by subsidizing buyers with low creditworthiness. * A less efficient collection of bad debts, as trade with bad debts is made extremely expensive. The finance literature presents several "good" arguments in favor of trade credits, e.g. transaction costs and asymmetric information. In contrast RVAT is an economically "bad" argument for trade credit. It is a subsidy that leads to inefficiently high use of trade credit. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/7193

The Relation Between Policies concerning Corporate Social Responsibility and Philosophical Moral TheoriesAn Empirical InvestigationFrederiksen, Claus S. (Frederiksberg, 2009)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper examines the relation between policies concerning Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and philosophical moral theories. The objective is to determine which moral theories form the basis for CSR policies. Are they based on ethical egoism, libertarianism, utilitarianism or some kind of common-sense morality? To address this issue, I conducted an empirical investigation examining the relation between moral theories and CSR policies, in companies engaged in CSR. Based on the empirical data I collected, I start by suggesting some normative arguments used by the respondents. Secondly, I suggest that these moral arguments implicitly rely on some specific moral principles, which I characterise. Thirdly, on the basis of these moral principles, I suggest the moral theories upon which the CSR policies are built. Previous empirical studies examining the relation between philosophical moral theories and the ethical content of business activities have mainly concentrated on the ethical decision-making of managers. Some of the most prominent investigations in that regard propose that managers mainly act in accordance with utilitarian moral theory (Fritzsche and Becker, 1984; Premeaux and Mony, 1993; Premeaux, 2004). I conclude that CSR policies are not based on utilitarian thinking, but instead on some kind of common-sense morality. The ethical foundation of companies engaged in CSR thus does not mirror the ethical foundation of managers. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/7822

A Chinese PerspectiveLi, Xin (Frederiksberg, 2010)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: In this paper, I argue that all the existing theories of the firm, i.e., the transaction cost, knowledge-based, and entrepreneurial theories, are insightful yet partial since they only deal with one or another possible situation in which the first ever firm came to exist. In addition, all of them have a common problem of buyer/entrepreneur/firm-centrism because they all ignore the role of employees in the formation of the firm. I argue, since they are complementary to each other, a new, comprehensive and integrative theory of the firm must be able to unify them with a consideration of employees. I propose a relationship-based theory of the firm (R'BT) as such a candidate theory. The R'BT places the employer-employee (or broader, firm-stakeholder) relationships at the centre of its whole theoretical framework and argues that the notion of relationship harmony is fundamental in explaining the nature of the firm.

Evidence from Copenhagen Business SchoolRovio-Johansson, Airi; Stenvinkel Nilsson, Ole (Frederiksberg, 2010)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: In three decades Higher Education Institutions have experienced decreasing trust and increasing demands of accountability from society. The aim is to explore how assessments of departments' research activities can contribute to improvement of research organization, research culture and credibility. The empirical study is based on reports from two assessment rounds of nine research departments, in 1994 to 2007. Qualitative statements and recom-menda¬tions are transformed to relative quantifiable performance measures on ten different dimensions in order to study development over time and analysis of departments´ variation. Results indicate significant improvement among some departments while others have not managed to such extent. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8201

Praest Knudsen, Mette (København, 2002)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The relationship and network literature has primarily focused on particular partner types e.g. buyer-supplier relationships or competitor interaction. This paper explores the relative importance of different international relationships for New Product Development processes. The paper is based on the KNOW survey1, which was carried out in 2000 in seven European countries. The analyses highlight two apparently contradictory findings, first, that relationships with customers are used most frequently at both early and late stages of the product development process, and second, that customer relationships, at the same time, have a negative impact on innovative success. Moreover, the type of knowledge exchanged in the relationship can be either complementary or supplementary in nature and the present analysis points to the importance of supplementary knowledge for innovative success.

The Effect on Transitional GenerationsKoethenbuerger, Marko; Poutvaara, Panu (København, 2007)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: We show that taxation of rents may yield an intergenerational Pareto-improvement in a small open economy provided tax revenues are earmarked to reduce wage taxes. Previous literature has shown that rent taxation benefits current young and future generations, while we show that it also benefits the current old generation when the initially prevailing tax mix is sufficiently skewed towards wage taxation.

Abstract: The main objective of WP9 was to provide insights into inter-sectoral differences in drivers, degree and patterns of global innovation network formation. Three different sectors, each representing their own category in the influential Pavitt (1984) taxonomy, are chosen as cases. Thus, the WP provided insights into GIN formation in each of these sectors on their own and, by way of comparative analysis, lifted the analysis to a more general European level perspective. The main research questions were: What GIN patterns are forming in the selected sectors, and to what extent are these influenced (driven, constrained) by contextual conditions specific to these sectors? The point of departure for this work package was the recognition that sectors diverge with respect to knowledge, cumulativeness and opportunity conditions. Existing empirical work e.g. show that the "global footprints" of different industries diverge according to the degree of tacitness and complexity of involved knowledge; according to degree of modularity of the product; and with the distribution of actors and environments globally which can be identified and towards which relevant linkages may be formed. Thus, different sectors face different tensions between centrifugal and centripetal forces of internationalization; which result in different patterns of international search, sourcing and collaboration. Understanding these are critical to the formulation of innovation policy in a context of globalization, as the patterns of GINs forming will determine home and host implications. National and EU level innovation policy must simultaneously account for the firm level need to interact and use the most competent and cost-effective partners world-wide; while ensuring that the linkages formed at this level strengthen rather than hollow out innovative capabilities at those same national and EU levels.

Federal forecasters predict there will be about nine to 15 storms during this year's Atlantic hurricane season.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration released its initial outlook Thursday for the six-month storm season that officially begins June 1.
The season got an early start when Tropical Storm Alberto formed last Saturday off South Carolina's coast.
The agency predicts that this year's total will include four to eight hurricanes. One to three of those could become major hurricanes.
This season marks the 20th anniversary of Hurricane Andrew's catastrophic landfall in South Florida as a Category 5 storm.
Last year marked the sixth consecutive year without the U.S. landfall of a major hurricane, which are classified as Category 3 storms with sustained winds of 111 mph or higher.

Thursday September 5, 2013
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) -- Panthers coach Ron Rivera says quarterback Cam Newton has been selected by his teammates as co-captain for the first time in his NFL career.
Rivera announced the news prior to Thursday's practice.
Linebacker Luke Kuechly, last year's AP defensive rookie of the year, linebacker Thomas Davis, wide receiver Steve Smith and offensive linemen Jordan Gross and Ryan Kalil were also selected as co-captains.
In Newton's first two seasons, the Panthers selected only two offensive captains and those honors went to Smith and Gross.
Newton said during training camp one of his goals was to earn the honor of captain from his teammates, saying "when you're a team captain that's not just a patch on the jersey. You're holding yourself to a higher standard with being accountable."

Like almost every program in the country, Georgia is placing a big time emphasis on the offensive line in their 2013 recruiting class, and one of their top targets is Buford offensive guard Josh Cardiello.
If there was any doubt about that in Cardiello's mind, Georgia made its point when the rising senior visited Athens for UGA's Very Important Dawg event.
"It was a great event, and we had a lot of one-on-one time with the coaches," said Cardiello. "They told me they wanted me to go ahead and jump on board and help recruit other guys. It made me feel great and wanted. I considered doing it, but I realized that now just isn't the time."
Cardiello has taken in multiple junior days in the last few weeks, and Georgia was promoting their VID Day as something a bit different.
According to Cardiello, the Bulldogs accomplished that mission.
"Yeah, it was much different," said Cardiello. "There was a lot more time with the coaches and it was a smaller group," he said. "I spent a lot of time with Coach (Will) Friend and got to know him much better."
The Buford standout told UGASports last month that one of the main things he was looking for in a school was his ability to build a relationship with the coaches.
This visit to Athens certainly gave Georgia a leg up in that aspect of Cardiello's recruitment.
"I already feel like I know the coaches well," he said. "This was a chance to spend time with them more, and I feel that we are definitely off to a great start in that way. Also being only 45 minutes away from the school has helped me understand and get to know the coaches really well, too."
Cardiello made the trip to Athens on Friday night, and spent the night with Georgia offensive lineman and former Buford teammate, Kolton Houston.
Despite the fact that they are a few years apart, Houston and Cardiello are quite close.
"Kolton and I are really close," said Cardiello. "I spent the night with him on Friday, and we had a lot of fun. He was my mentor when I was a freshman, so we know each other really well, and I know he loves it at Georgia."
In his conversations with the coaching staff, Georgia made their plans known for the Peach State lineman.
They also let him know how many offensive linemen they plan to take in 2013.
"They told me that they want me to come in and play center," said Cardiello. "They like me there, but they also said I could play guard too. They told me that they want to take two or three linemen to play on the inside at guard or center."
Cardiello has seen the Classic City on multiple occasions, and has come away impressed each time.
Was this visit to Athens any different than the rest?
"I think it was a lot different," he said. "The group was smaller and we saw a lot of stuff. I think I learned even more about the program, and was able to build more relationships. I had a chance to spend time with Montravius (Adams) and some of the other guys from Rising Seniors that I got to know there. It was a good trip." ...More...

Alpha Consumer Makes Green Finds in Eco-Friendly TravelWritten by Amy Givler
US News editor and Alpha Consumer blogger, Kimberly Palmer asked, Are Eco-Resorts Really Green? Initially skeptical, she wades through greenwash and finds real eco-friendly tourist destinations, among them Carbonfund.org partners. She mentions for example EcoTour Adventures in Jackson Hole, Wyoming and Craftsman B&B on the pacific coast of Oregon who are committed to sustainability. When evaluating the green claims of any business, you can look for these signs: 1. They express their environmental commitment on their website or materials; 2. They are transparent about what they have done to reduce what they can or offset what they can't; 3. If you need more info, the contact person is familiar with and clear about their business' efforts. Getting green is crucial for the tourism industry. As a reminder, check out this article from the BBC yesterday that reports that the Caribbean region is among the regions said by scientists to be most at risk from the effects of global warming. Coral reefs face collapse from global warming and dealing with extreme weather is expected to cost $5 billion. Add that to the expected loss of $4 billion in travel revenue, the vacation in the Carribean in many people's dreams might, if the world doesn't take action pass into legend. We all have a carbon footprint. Take responsibility for yours now. Learn more about how you can reduce and offset your footprint on our website.

The school was placed on the state's academic warning list earlier this year after poor performances, but new results show the trend is turning around.
School superintendent Dr. Peter Flynn says that's a tribute to the teacher's hard work and effort. He says the entire district will benefit from the test scores.
The scores still show a slight gap in achievement between white and African-American students, but both groups showed significant improvements.

Crohn's disease - affected areas
The inflammation of Crohn's disease is typically found in the ileocecal region. The ileocecal region consists of the last few inches of the small intestine (the ileum), which moves partially digested food to the beginning portion of the large intestine (the cecum). However, Crohn's disease can occur anywhere along the digestive tract.

Nice to see the Caribbean featured here, but I just want to point out that Percy Lee isn't "half Jamaican", he's all Jamaican, because Jamaican is his nationality. Jamaicans can be white, black, Asian or, as in the case of Percy Lee, a combination of these. So Percy is half Asian and half white? Half Asian and Half black? And, for the purposes of your blog, does it really matter?
Having said that, I love the tuxedo in the first picture, especially worn with those sunglasses. That's stylin'!

WASHINGTON – Next time you're in rush hour traffic on the Beltway, and you wish you could escape to Paris or Rome, you may want to rethink that. Traffic there is worse.
At least, according to GPS navigation device maker TomTom.
Both of those highly sought-after travel cities have 34 percent traffic congestion ratings, tied for fifth worst in Europe in 2012, according to their new study. (PDF)
Traffic congestion in 31 metropolitan European cities were ranked compared to their 2011 levels. Istanbul, Turkey had the worst rating at 57 percent.
Compared to those cities, traffic in the D.C. region is not as bad.
Washington came in with a 26 percent rating, third worst in a list of other major metropolitan U.S. cities on the list.
TomTom's study ranks traffic in 26 major North American metropolitan cities. So, once Canada's traffic figures are included, D.C. drops to sixth (PDF).
Los Angeles tops the worst traffic list of North American cities with a rating of 36 percent.
The company comprised their numbers based on travel times during "non-congested periods" with those during "peak hours." The percentages represent the increase in travel time.

Mike McGlinchey is one of Boston College's top offensive line targets in the junior class and the Eagles are hoping he's able to attend the junior day at the school later this month.The Philadelphia (Pa.) William Penn Charter lineman has received early offers from BC, Duke, Virginia and Rutgers.His schedule for the next few weeks is starting to fill up but some questions still remain."I think I'm going to go out to Boston College, Maryland and possibly Virginia in the near future," McGlinchey said."I'm not positive about the BC trip yet. I've spoken to them about taking the trip but I have a basketball game that day so I'm not sure. I think I should be able to if I can pull some strings with my coach because I'd really love to go."Just a couple of weeks ago McGlinchey made a trip to Rutgers to check out the Big East school."That went well," he recalled. "It was my first time meeting all the coaches and I really liked it. It's a very nice facility, obviously. The coaching staff is great and they preach a lot of good things like togetherness and family and I did take to that."As for the summer, McGlinchey hasn't looked that far ahead. In fact, he's hoping to have a decision made before then."I'll probably take a few visits in the summer if I'm not committed somewhere by then. I really hope to be committed before the summer," he said.McGlinchey reiterated that he doesn't have any favorites at this point.WANT TO GO INSIDE BOSTON COLLEGE?

What Our Graduates Say
Pastor Steven Zwart, senior pastor at Unity Christian Reformed Church in Prinsburg, Minnesota, graduated from Dordt College in 1991, with a major in communication and minors in church music and theology.
"The communication department of Dordt College provided me the tools I needed to effectively communicate with my audiences, small groups, and staff," said Zwart. "The professors did not give me tools just for the day, but they gave me tools that would help daily in my profession now, more than 20 years after graduation. That's the beauty of a Reformed education at Dordt College: it's relevant and enduring."
Pastor Zwart said Dordt's world and life view have impacted the way he teaches and preaches, the way he cares for people, and the way he reaches out to people who are hurt and broken. "I am very grateful for the professors and classroom setting that allowed me to explore critical issues of gospel and culture, the impact of human history on today, and how best to relate to our world from a Christ-centered perspective," he said.
A Dordt College alumnus from the Class of 1999, Daniel Vos graduated from Calvin Theological Seminary in 2003. "Dordt College is a wonderful place for Christian higher education. If you are willing, it will challenge you to think and live in a more consistent Christian fashion."
Vos majored in american history and said that the clear Reformed perspective on history was good preparation for further study "because it taught me how to read in an academic sense, read a high volume of material, and respond with clear, Reformed thought."
You'll Find Them Here
According to surveys conducted by the Auburn Center for the Study of Theological Education, the five key influential aspects of seminary education are faculty, interaction among students, biblical studies, study of history/theology, and field education/internship.
A Dordt College education encompasses all of these aspects.

So, what's a Hindu "breakfast"?
It is not uncommon for Indians to get asked "So...what do you guys eat for breakfast in India?" The answer is not so straightforward because India has a diversity platter on almost everything. Only those who know about Indian culture really understand that there is no such thing as homogenous Indian food - be it breakfast, lunch or dinner. But there are some principles that make Indian cuisine unique, especially the so called 'Indian breakfast".
During my early years of work in New Zealand, I had to stay overnight at a hotel. In the morning I met my colleagues at breakfast and it was a continental breakfast menu. Knowing that I had recently arrived from India, a colleague at my table asked what I used to eat for breakfast in India. Buttering a piece of toast, I responded, ''nothing of what we see in today's breakfast menu'. This stunned the guys at the table, as they were innocently unaware of the Indian diversity. The local awareness was Butter chicken, Naan and Papaddom for Indian food. That was it. In my native nostalgia I got excited to share about idlis, dosas, poha etc but I really struggled to explain them. The response I got was blank looks. I thought 'never mind'...it's nobody's fault...that's the way we all are...living in our own worlds.
No such thing as 'breakfast' in India...
But yes, it is quite a wonder - this 'breakfast' menu in India. In fact, from ancient times, there has been no such thing as 'break-fast' in India. No such concept existed because the average Indian doesn't think that by consuming food in the morning he/she is "breaking the fasting period" of the previous night, as the term 'breakfast' suggests.
There is 'Naashta' that is eaten in the Indian household including the ones who live overseas and like many things Indian; the 'naashta' echoes the diversity of the country. In fact, the Indian Naashta varies quite a bit from region to region be it from Kutch in the West to Kolkatta in the East; Srinagar in the North to Suchindram in the South. Normally naashta is based on wheat or rice with vegetables as the accompaniment.
However, when you step out of India or even in urban India today, the naashta is increasingly influenced by what I call as 'commercial breakfast'. The urban Indians and the ones living overseas simply follow the crowd by consuming convenient foods, supermarket dependent where boxed cereals, cold reconstituted fruit juice or coffee-in-a-hurry is the norm.
The variety in Indian breakfast...
The authentic Indian breakfast is made from ingredients that are available regionally and even seasonally. The naashta is always fresh and cooked (made from scratch) - be it Idlis, Pongal, Vada, Dosa, Upama etc in the South, or stuffed paratha in the North. In central states like Maharashtra, Potato Poha, Upma, or Shira is the ultimate and tasty breakfast. Gujarati breakfast items are the famous haandvo, dhokla, sev-khamni, theplas, bhaakhri etc. Masala tea is quite common or even filter coffeee if you are from south. Children are always given milk, sometimes with powdered almonds, cardomam, cinnamon and/or saffron.

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. -- No. 1 North Carolina (7-0) slugged out a season-high 17 hits and drew 11 walks en route to an 18-5 win over visiting St. John's (1-7) Wednesday.
The Tar Heels used a pair of big innings in the ball game as Carolina pushed nine runs across in the secnd inning and seven more in the sixth.
The nine-run inning was the highest scoring inning for the Tar Heels since March 15, 2011 when they scored nine runs in the eighth inning of an 11-2 win over Princeton.
The Tar Heels hit the 18-run mark for the second time in the last three years on Wednesday, after posting an 18-4 win over Stony Brook in 2011.
Ten different players scored a run in the contest, led by the trio of Landon Lassiter, Colin Moran and Michael Russell who crossed the plate three times apiece.
Cody Stubbs and Tom Zengel each drove in three runs for Carolina, while Lassiter, Moran and Matt Rubino contribued two RBIs apiece.
Michael Russell paced the Tar Heels with three hits on the afternoon in his five at bats. Leadoff man Chaz Frank tallied a pair of hits on the day in addition to Skye Bolt and Moran, who also drew four walks.
Freshman Trent Thornton earned the start for the Tar Heels and earned the victory on a staff day as he went four innings. Thornton surrendered a pair of unearned runs on four hits while striking out three.
Fellow freshmen Reilly Hovis and Taylore Cherry also saw action out of the Tar Heel bullpen in addition to the season debut for sophomore Mason McCullough in the seventh inning.
Andrew Smith and Luis Paula each contributed a scoreless frame for the Tar Heels to close out the win and help UNC improve to 7-0 on the year.
Up next for UNC is a trip to Houston, Texas for the Astros Foundation College Classic set to begin Friday, March 1.
Carolina will take on Rice on Friday at 3:30 p.m. CT, followed by California at 12 p.m. CT on Saturday and Texas A&M at 2 p.m. CT on Sunday.

선수 소개
TRAINING: Mornings – Weight Training 1 hr. / Conditioning. Afternoon – 1 hr. of technique, 1 hr. of live drills, 1 hr of sparring
UFC History: TUF 8
In the quarterfinals, Bruchez was submitted in the first round via armbar by Vinicius Magalhaes.
On episode one, Bruchez submitted Eric Magee with a rear naked choke in the first round.
When and why did you start training for fighting? I began training around 3 years ago. Throughout my life I played sports. I saw my first UFC Fight during my senior year in high school. At that moment, I knew that fighting was something I always wanted to do, but there were not any local resources for MMA training. When the opportunity was finally given to me, I quickly took advantage of it. It is also a great way to stay in shape. I was in karate when I was younger and I missed that one on one competition.
What titles have you held? Unfortunately, Louisiana has just recently introduced a belt system and due to TUF 08 I have not been able to participate in any of these events.
Do you have any heroes? Yes, first and foremost my hero is Jesus Christ. Not only because I believe that he is my savior but because he truly loved everyone, even his own enemies. Unlike me, when I'm competing all I can think about doing is beating the guy in front of me. I strive everyday to be more like him, I have a long way to go.
What does it mean for you to fight in the UFC? To fight in the UFC is a dream come true, and I have many different reasons. First, I fight because I love the competition, I love the continuous battles I put myself through. Each fight is a test on how good of an athlete I am. Fighting for the UFC is where I will be tested at my highest level over and over. I couldn't live with myself being in another organization and being undefeated. Sounds stupid uh? Its NOT! To me I wouldn't feel complete unless I'm tested by the best - if you want to be the best you have to beat the best!!! The only way I can do that is to be in the top organization, the UFC. The other reason is the money but not for me, but for my family who needs it, and for my community, such as homeless shelters and poor people. The third reason why I want to be in the UFC is to use my status to reach out and help kids. Like Boys and Girls clubs and talking to the schools about staying away from drugs and violence.
Did you go to college and if so what degree did you earn? Yes, a bachelor's degree in Behavioral Science with a minor in Visual Arts Graphic Animation.
What was your job before you started fighting? Personal Trainer/ Strength coach
Specific accomplishments in amateur competition?
There are two fights that stand out; the first was my first fight. I beat this boy bad, real bad; I had blood all over me. When I left the ring people didn't want to even shake my hand they just looked at me with a look on there face like "who the #$% is this guy". It was great, I loved it. The other one was when my guy didn't make weight so I took a fight at the last minute. I weighed in at 208 and he showed up at a whopping 250+. When I finished him I was in an upside down armbar after he just slammed me. The whole place went crazy!!!! Everyone was touching me and wanting pictures. It was the best feeling I had in an amateur fight.
Specific accomplishments in pro competition? I never had fought pro before the Ultimate Fighter so my greatest accomplishment was winning the fight to get in the house. I never will forget it - I cried so much the other guys in the back thought I lost.
Ranks in any martial arts styles: I have a Black Belt in Shotokan
Favorite grappling technique: Juji Gatame – it's always there
Favorite Striking technique: Knee to the face.

Johnson House
this wiki
|This article or section needs to be cleaned up to meet the standards of GTA Wiki
needs sections
The Johnson House is a 2-story home on Grove Street, Ganton, Los Santos, which is the home of the Johnson family. Beverly Johnson raised her four children (Carl, Sweet, Kendl and Brian) in the house. Carl was born in the Johnson House, and it is possible that her three other children were born in the house.
The house was the target of a drive-by shooting in early 1992, which cost Beverly her life (although the Ballas gang members were aiming for Sweet Johnson). Carl Johnson, who had returned from Liberty City, then moves into the house. Despite coming under constant attack, Ganton does not fall until both Carl and Sweet leave Ganton (Carl taken to Whetstone whilst Sweet was arrested).Whilst Carl is out of Los Santos, the house lies within Ballas gang territory. Although the house is not vandalized, a druggie does steal the family blender out of the kitchen. (Carl can still access the home, its garage, and the weapons cache awarded after spraying all gang tags, but is subject to attack by enemy gang members.) The home falls back into the hands of Carl and Sweet after they return to Los Santos (Sweet was released via Mike Toreno). The house is the place of the last cut scene of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, where Carl and guests talk about their various successes.
The garage located next to the house can store up to three vehicles, although the garage door will not open for vehicles after two vehicles are stored in the garage. A third vehicle can be put into the garage by reversing the vehicle to the garage door, exiting and entering the vehicle quickly and then reversing into the garage. In the PS2 version it's actually possible to park and save a Rhino tank in the garage, although getting in and out of the tank can be tricky.
Due to the sidewalk outside being rather busy, it's not uncommon for Grove Street gang members to enter the garage while the door is open, though this appears to have no ill effect (at some safehouses, pedestrians who enter a garage may actually try to steal a vehicle). Exiting the garage requires care so as not to run over pedestrians.
In the upstairs bedroom there is a camera, which can be used to take pictures. Following the Tagging Up Turf, a spray paint can is also available in the same bedroom. A Wardrobe is also available upstairs, across from the bedroom. There is a third door on the second level which cannot be opened. The Johnson House, after spraying over all 100 Gang Tags, has four weapons available for use appear in the kitchen. The weapons are: an AK-47, a Sawn-Off Shotgun, Molotov Cocktails and a Tec-9. The living room also has a video game console, on which you can play They Crawled from Uranus.
The Johnson House becomes an asset after the completion of the mission Doberman, allowing Carl to gain more money. After the mission Green Sabre, the House loses its asset status, although this is restored after completing Home Coming. The icon for collecting money is a yellow/gold $ sign, which is located in front of the garage. The asset can generate a maximum of $10,000 each day.

House Glitch
In rare occurences, you're able to bring Grove Street Family members into the Johnson House. It happens randomly most of the time. To get it to work, you must have few of the gangmembers following you and enter the house with them right near you. Then quickly enter the wardrobe or save your game and the aftermath will be based on random. Once the glitch works, the amount of gang members that were following you should be in the kitchen. They do not move or have any animations and act as statues; you are able to walk through them.
- In a beta screenshot, a light pole was shown out front next to the garbage bag.
- There were no plants and pictures in the beta.
- The house interior shows there's a window at the back of the house, in the kitchen, but the house is directly connected to the Pawn Shop at the rear.

It is important for you to have frank, open discussions with your cancer care team. Don't be afraid to ask questions, no matter how minor you might think they are. Some questions to consider:
- What type of breast cancer do I have? How does this affect my treatment options and prognosis?
- Has my cancer spread to lymph nodes or internal organs?
- What is the stage of my cancer and how does it affect my treatment options and outlook?
- Do I need to have other tests done before we can decide on treatment?
- Should I consider genetic testing?
- Should I think about taking part in a clinical trial?
- What treatments are appropriate for me? What do you recommend? Why?
- What are the risks and side effects that I should expect?
- How effective will breast reconstruction surgery be if I need or want it?
- What are the pros and cons of having it done right away or waiting until later?
- What will my breasts look and feel like after my treatment? Will I have normal sensation in them?
- How long will treatment last? What will it be like? Where will it be done?
- What should I do to get ready for treatment?
- Will I need a blood transfusion?
- Should I follow a special diet or make other lifestyle changes?
- What are the chances my cancer will come back with the treatment programs we have discussed? What would we do if that happens?
- Will I go through menopause as a result of the treatment?
- Will I be able to have children after my treatment?
- What type of follow-up will I need after treatment?
Be sure to write down any questions that occur to you that are not on this list. For instance, you might want specific information about recovery times so that you can plan your work schedule. Or you may want to ask about second opinions. Taking another person and/or a tape recorder to the appointment can be helpful. Collecting copies of your medical records, pathology reports, and radiology reports may be useful in case you wish to seek a second opinion at a later time.

As part of its corporate social responsibility initiative, Airtel Tanzania at the weekend launched 'The Girl Empowerment Programme' under the theme 'Build Your Future'.
The thrust of the programme is on empowering secondary school girls aged between 14 and 18 years, in achieving their future career goals and generally build self-confidence among young women.
The company has described the programme as of fundamental relevance and significance "as it goes hand in hand with our mission of educating the girl child and creating brand loyalty", adding: "Young girls need opportunities outside school curricula to learn and develop new skills and interests with other youth and adults."
Speaking at the launch, held at Canossa Girls Secondary School at Tegeta, Dar es Salam, Airtel customer Care Director Adrianna Lyamba said: "We are kick-starting the programme this quarter with Canossa Girls Secondary School, but it will be an ongoing programme implemented every three months to benefit girls' secondary schools around Tanzania."
"We will be covering a wide range of topics relating to career management, building self-confidence and making the right decisions in life.
We will be requesting our own employees to volunteer to speak in schools and share their career experiences and skills with the students to help the students understand what it takes to build a career and select the right career path in life," she noted.
Lyamba said Airtel subscribes to the belief that educating a woman means educating the whole community, "and we therefore believe the knowledge acquired will be of great significance to the destinies of girls and the future of upcoming generations".
"We are highly committed towards supporting Tanzanian communities. Apart from this girls' empowerment programme, we have been supporting the country's education sector through 'Shule Yetu Programme' by providing books to secondary schools in various part of the country," she added.
She explained that the aim is to help raise the standard of education in secondary schools by ensuring readier availability of books to students, adding: "Since we started our books support programme some seven years ago, we have reached more than 800 secondary schools."
