I'll be buying more MTW on Wednesday's open. I've got a 10% profit on the just the last purchase I made, not too long ago. Might as well run with the momentum. Go MTW!
earnings should be out second week in july,as in
past years. I hope mtw can give us some news next week
with a mid second quarter update. I think this quarter
will be very positive, with better than expected
You have about a month before 2Q earnings come out. I don't expect it to go much below 35 as it has been holding up pretty well.
Well I wonder if I should wait for a little drop
after the run-up before I buy it. I really like this
stock a lot though and worry the 2nd Q earnings will
really surprise us on the plus side. I am new to
investing but I researched stocks for the last 2 week and
MTW is a top 10 stock. Some of my other ideas for
picks are AC, Salton, a lot of REIT's (SUI), SNS, RAIL,
and PBKB for starters if you like earnings and
revenue growth.
I've run across this site and have have had a lot
of fun with it.
You have to be quick, but can
make some good money with
their info. If your
interested here is the
A quiet board means that people are happy. I'm happy with MTW.

were: Ethan Allen Interiors, the furniture retailer
(ticker: ETH; Thursday close and change: $51.31, up 56
cents); Jones Apparel Group (JNY; $34.31, up 63 cents);
Manitowoc Co. (MTW; $36.94, unchanged), which makes heavy
equipment such as cranes and ice machines; and HMO operator
United Healthcare (UNH; $66.63, up $6.75).
I didn't take it as a slam. The board will probably be quiet till next earnings announcement.
Back to painting!
I feel the same way you do about his contribution
to the board. I was just noting that the board went
to sleep right after his post on midwest work ethic.
Might have been a connection. I'm not slamming the
midwest eather. I'm from Lansing, Michigan. I won't be
going back though. Can't stand the snow and ice. Here
in North Georgia we occasionally see a cutsie little
snow and the only ice is in our tea or scotch.
is where i picked it up. i actually haven't done
as well as i would have liked to do. since i exited
mtw i have flown to quality--wcom, aol, and g. i also
took a shot at cell-right after it got pummelled from
14 to 7 in one day. i haven't made any money on it
yet, but i think it could go back to 10 within a few
months, at which point i will think about dumping it, and
going for another quality issue, like gap stores, or a
drug maker-i still haven't committed to a drug
company-there is a lot of info that you need to filter through
to do an adequate amount of d.d. later.
Pseltz - It is one of those friend of a friend
type deals. I seem to remember you having some
connections in the gas and oil biz. Seems like he was
involved in the Alaska pipeline that carries natural gas.
Anyway, someone mentioned him and I thought that you
might know him.
Too bad you didn't get in on
the MTW runup. But, I'll bet that you probably made
money somewhere else. Did you ever get in to

Tavon Austin couldn't help but make the connection. "I felt like I was back home, back at running back like I did in high school," he said of his 344-yard outburst on just 21 carries in last week's loss. Strong words when Oklahoma's on the other side of the ball, but Austin might have actually understated his perception. Junior high, perhaps?

Team, I've been running the latest beta of 8 and unfortunately I had to uninstall it and carry on with version 7. I should add that 7 is fine.
The problem I had with 8 is that the intellisense was acting strangely. For example, if I started adding an "if" statement 8 would sometimes change it to something else other than "if", for example, it would add something like IDisposable even though "if" is what I was typing at the time. If I was typing an argument list to a method, the intellisense would add something like this (assume there's a variable called fred):
whatever, whatever, ""fred, whatever... Note the ""fred as that's what I was observing.
I wish I could explain it more simply but it was a problem that came and went sometimes in the same VS2012 session. I'd like to think that maybe there's a setting that causes this odd behavior but I can't think of anything. It's not that I couldn't use the 8 beta but the loss of intellisense's sanity was really unusual. If somebody has an idea if I've caused the problem i'd be happy to try it again. Unfortunately, screenshots are tricky as the problem comes and goes at different times. I'm mid-stream in an important development phase so I have to stick with 7 as I can't give the time to play with 8. I had to uninstall it which was fine and like I say, 7 is running well.
I'm open to suggestions.
RS8 beta. Odd intellisense completion.
Team, I've been running the latest beta of 8 and unfortunately I had to uninstall it and carry on with version 7. I should add that 7 is fine.

Skip to comments.A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day...04-06,07,08-07...Easter Weekend ~ Stations of the Cross
Posted on 04/06/2007 7:15:05 AM PDT by dutchess
Every Thursday at the Finest
I thank you, Dutchess, for this beautiful thread today. I need to get ready now for church, starting with Tenebrae.
A blessed solemn holy day to you, as our Dear Christ lays down His Life for us...
April 6, 2007
When they had come to the place called Calvary, there they crucified Him. Luke 23:33
When Jesus died on the cross, He paid for the sins of the human race. Only those who believe on Him, however, can receive His loving provision. The sacrifice of Christ is sufficient for all, but it is effective only for those who place their trust in Him.
As the Lord Jesus hung on the cross, two criminals were crucified next to Him. One of those men is now in the place of the losthis doom in hell forever sealed. The other is with Christhis place in heaven assured for eternity. Their contrasting attitudes toward the Man on the center cross made all the difference.
One of the criminals railed at the Lord in unbelief. The other cried out in faith, Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom (Luke 23:42). To him Jesus said, Today you will be with Me in Paradise (v.43).
We are all represented by one of those two men. We either believe on Christ or we reject Him. Our eternal destiny depends on our decision. Jesus said of Himself, He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already (John 3:18).
On this Good Friday, lets thank Jesus for paying for our sin. If you havent trusted Him, do it today! In dying on the cross, Jesus became the Great Divider.
Good Friday is the mirror held up by Jesus...it turns us to that cross and to his eyes and we hear these words, "Father forgive them for they know not what they do."
Robert G. Trache
A wonderful post dutchess. I know God is watching.
A blessed Easter to you and to all the Finest, dutchess.
Friday Stations brings back good memories of childhood. Unfortunately, I haven't been to them the last couple of years because of work.
As always, wearing red on Friday to support our troops in Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere. May the strong Son of God protect them from danger.
Thank you, Mayor.
Thank you for the lovely reminder.
Amen. Thank you, Rus.
Thank you, Lord, for Your sacrifice and for the gift of Salvation.
Praying our Lord's Blessings to be with you All.
Amen... Happy Easter.
How have you been, and how's that precious grandbaby?
{{{{{hugs}}}}} I'm doing great and Hannah is too. I put a new pix of her on my profile page today. She's such a sweetie!
So, you are watching American Idol too? Who's your favorite at this point?
Thank you! Hannah is such a blessing and I am so glad to be close enough to see her often.
For American Idol, I like Melinda, LaKisha and Jordin. I think Jordin will probably win but Melinda and LaKisha will have big careers. Who is your favorite? And how long do you think Sanjaya will last?
Hot Cross Buns IV
It was a custom in medieval times, and still is in many places, to mark a new loaf of bread with the sign of the Cross before cutting it. On special occasions the cross was imprinted on the loaf itself, either by way of indentation or through a frosting of sugar.
In England, from the end of the fourteenth century, buns were baked with a cross on them. They are said to have originated at St. Alban's Abbey in 1361, where the monks distributed them to the poor on Good Friday in place of the ordinary buns. These "hot cross buns" became a famous Good Friday feature in England and Ireland, and later in the New World. They are now often served on other days of Lent as well. Made of spiced dough, round in shape, with a cross of sugar icing on the top, they are a familiar item of Lenten pastry.
These hot cross buns would be a great treat to serve on the Feast of the Exaltation of the Cross, since the cross on the top of the bun reminds us of the feastday.
Dissolve yeast from hot roll mix in warm water in large bowl. Blend in egg. Add currants, citron, cinnamon, flour mixture; mix thoroughly. Let rise in warm place 30-45 minutes. Divide dough in 16 equal parts. Shape into balls. Place on greased baking sheet. Let rise again to almost double in size, 30-45 minutes. Bake 15-20 minutes until golden brown at 400°. Brush with soft butter. Cool. Make cross on top of each with mixture of 1 cup sifted confectioners' sugar combined with 4 1/2 teaspoons milk.

The guys have sure been a disappointment, huh? And, Sanjaya......sheesh! I can't believe he is still there. LOL
One thing I have noticed this season; Paula seems a little less out of it than she has in past years. I think the rumors about her drinking and drugging have caused her to be more aware of how she is coming across. I think she is just a naturally "spacey" person.
Thank you. A happy and blessed Easter to you, tulip.
Happy Easter to you, Amy!
Thank the Good Lord!
I listened to this song, the prayer in this song, and got a miracle healing!!
A true healing miracle!
If I may I will share my testimony. I have severe RA (arthritis) for about 15 years now, I prayed daily that the Lord would heal my hand for several years now. The hand swelled that the fingers turned in a direction to the side they should not be in, the pain and discomfort was getting so bad, today 2 of the 4 fingers went back in place!!
The pain and discomfort is almost completely gone.
I cannot tell you what it feels like to receive a miracle!
Thank you MamaBear for posting the beautiful prayer and song!
A true Easter miracle!
Thank you Lord!!
"I pray you'll be all right, and watch us where we go"......
Praise God! Oh, stopem..This is so wonderful.

READ: Galatians 6:11-18
God forbid that I should boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. Galatians 6:14
In the twisted wreckage of a Metrolink train crash, firefighters from Los Angeles Fire Station 27 found a message that brought tears to their eyes. A survivor of the crash, thinking he was dying, had used his own blood to write on the seat in front of him that he loved his wife and kids.
Normally, we use the words written in blood in a less literal way. It usually conveys a willingness to stand behind our words with our life.
As Paul ended his letter to the Galatians, he was, in a figurative sense, writing his story in blood. He wrote a message of love and grace that would arouse the anger of other religious leaders. He knew he would be hated for honoring the death of Christ above the ritual and moral law of Israel. He would be punished for teaching that Christs death and resurrection were more important than the law of circumcision that represented the whole Mosaic way of life. His suffering for Christ would literally include shedding his own blood (2 Cor. 11:23-25).
Paul wasnt willing to play it safe. He knew the crucifixion of Jesus was the center page of history. Putting his own life on the line, Paul proclaimed the inexpressible heart of God, who gave His Son to express the ultimate words of love, written in blood at the cross.
I am so happy for you!! Praise God from whom all blessings flow!
Maybe a pineapple pie would draw him out. ;-)
Just beautiful, MB! You have gorgeous flowers in your garden!
Guess we should whip one up for him!
Heeerrrree, Louibooooo!!
Actually, he said he will answer his pings later, wolfie be busy today. So, I guess we'll just stand here holding the door open until he gets here. Then watch out as he makes a bee-line for that chocolate bunny and your pineapple pie. LOL.
Uh huh....that's what the snails are doing as I type. Voracious and uncontrollable creatures they are!
Love your bonnet, Lady J.
Easter Meditation
O Lord,
it is so easy to identify with you in your passion,
where pain and grief and death
come together in that great sacrifice
you offered to bring us home to you.
How well I know the touch
of pain, and tears and fear.
But yet, how hard it is to grasp that miracle
come Easter morning, and like Mary Magdalene,
so often I wander the garden confused and in tears,
searching for you, Lord of my heart,
You, who through your death and resurrection
have been transformed into who you really are,
filled, not emptied,
full God and fully man.
It is an amazing thing.
one I cannot truly grasp.
Like the apostles and disciples,
we can only catch fleeting touches of you,
for your glory is more than this mortal flesh can bear for long,
a moment upon Mt. Tabor,
a breaking of the bread at Emmaus,
morning by the Sea of Gallilee.
O Lord, firstfruits of all those who bear mortal flesh,
O Lord, God who breathed upon the waters when time began,
O Lord, Bridegroom preparing the home for his bride,
Help me see you Lord,
in the glory of the sunrise,
in the voice of the hungry child,
in the touch of loving concern,
in the gathering of your saints,
in the Bread of Life,
in the touch of your hand on my life,
in that whisper of hope that will not go away..
O Lord, like Mary in the garden,
may I hear your voice and know,
in amazement and joy who it is who calls my name,
and like her, look up and see your smiling face.
I miss Louibo when he's not here!
And I missed you! (((hugs)))

The gigabit adapter does not have built-in drivers for Wii or Linux prior to kernel 3.2. For these, choose our 10/100 adapter Plugable USB2-E100 which has in-built support for these earlier systems.
Installing Drivers
There are 3 easy options for installing drivers.
- On Windows 10, 8.1, 8, and Windows 7 systems with Windows Update enabled, just leave the network cable connected to a different network adapter (so Windows Update can be reached) and just plug in the USB side of the adapter. Windows will look for the best driver.
- Drivers for many platforms (including Windows, Linux, Windows CE, etc.) are available for download. The complete list of drivers and supported platforms for the AX88178 chip in the Plugable USB2-E1000 is available on the ASIX AX88178 driver download page.

A. As far as we have tested this adapter under ideal circumstances and heard back from our customers, the maximum speed of this adapter is 250-300 Mbps. If the network port of the PC was 10/100 Fast Ethernet, this adapter will be faster. It will be slower than a Gigabit Ethernet port, though.
Q. The network throughput of this USB2-E1000 adapter is slower than the WiFi connection.
A. Even though the throughput is limited by USB 2.0, this adapter is faster than almost all Wifi speeds. Many cases, the network speed is the issue. If you are interested in more details, please read through this related blog post that covers speed issues pretty extensively.
Q. Are there any known software conflicts?
A. For Mac users, there is a known conflict with the Android File Transfer Program.

Biography from the Archives of askART
When Billy Corgan of the group Smashing Pumpkins - at the height of their fame - asked Vasily Kafanov to create all of the graphic material for their album and tour Machina/The Machines of God (2000), he found an artist whose visual imagery matched his group's music and lyrics in its density, poetic allusiveness, and fantasy. Their combined efforts resulted in a brilliant collaboration whose central theme of alchemy, the transformation of base metals into gold, was of great interest to both artist and singer. The commission also announced the arrival of a significant new talent on the New York artistic stage.
Born in Moscow in 1952, Kafanov received a thorough artistic training in the Soviet style: textile design at the Moscow Technological Institute (1978), Animation at the Ministry of Film (1984), and long immersion in the fertile world of book illustration from 1980. Before leaving Russia in 1990, he was already embarked on a distinguished career and was a member of the prestigious Artist's Union. He had also proven to be a real find to the actors of the film "The Russia House," including Michelle Pfeiffer and Steven Fisher, who collected his paintings while on location in Moscow. Kafanov has brought the craft and versatility so evident in his formative years in Moscow to all that he has produced since arriving in New York in 1990. He has tried his hand at ceramics, printmaking, and sculpture - remarkably, creating distinguished works in each --although painting has remained his principal focus. In each of these his style remains immediately recognizable and singular. Figures and objects are placed in an overall pattern across the surface, both their silhouettes and details literally drawn in a dense web of black ink across the color of the acrylic paint. Sometimes a narrative is being told - travels; festivities; harlequins; court life of the middle ages. At other times a single image is in the forefront and all else recedes behind it. Of these images, that which has continued to play a role in Kafanov's imagination longest is the so-called Fishtower, in which a tower grows from a vast airborne fish. The artist has attempted to locate the fascination of this image for him. It derives, in the first place, in a childhood experience of great poignancy. While growing up in a communal apartment, he had begged his mother for an aquarium with fish. There wasn't room, but she finally gave him two fish in a pickle jar. They survived for a month, and when they died his grandmother told him that they had flown away. This memory was later joined to one of the old bell towers of Moscow (perhaps made more interesting because the churches to which they were attached were more or less shut down by the authorities). Both of these childhood memories - resonant with emotions relating to desire, deprivation, and some kind of faith - came back to him when he first flew over Manhattan, its 'fish-like' shape bristling with skyscrapers. Although the folkloric aspect of his recurrent images has led critics to compare some of his earlier works to Marc Chagall (and indeed Kafanov knew the venerable artist and was encouraged by him), the work of the last decade or more has moved far from that beginning. The recent paintings are increasingly dense, with enigmatic and moody qualities. This evolution came to fruition in a masterful series of collages of the last five or so years. Built up from photographs, bits of metallic machinery, wooden elements, etc., as well as with the characteristic pen lines and thick acrylic paint, these are enormously satisfying compositionally, and can be haunting in their effect. Folklore gives way to meditation on personal history, the passage of time, and glimpses onto other places and landscapes. Likewise, the confidence and monumentality of a recent series of rough- hewn wooden sculptures of fish and fish towers makes a remarkably distinctive impression. The artist is very interested in creating objects like these, which almost seem ancient or 'primitive' in their simplicity; as he said of some woodcuts that he made for the Smashing Pumpkins commission, "The first books in this world were made with woodcuts, and I try to imitate that sense of antiquity." Thus too, the illusionistic framed borders of many of his paintings and collages seem to allude to old Russian icons. In an interview Kafanov has said that, "I paint all the time. I don't wake up in the morning, get dressed to paint, finish in the evening and go home to my regular life. Art is my life." This is borne out by the searching quality of his work, in which one thing leads so naturally to another - from one medium to another, from one experiment to another, and circling back through the same themes but seen from different angles or lenses.

Posted on 09/28/2007 4:44:37 PM PDT by Libloather
Teenager Charged with Hanging 6-Year-Old Neighbor Girl
Last Update: 1:04 pm
CORSICANA, Texas (AP) -- A neighbor of a 6-year-old girl found hanged in her family's garage has been charged in the sexual assault and death of the first-grader, police said Friday.
Shaun Earl Arender, 19, is charged with capital murder in the death of Hanna Mack, whose body was found hanging from the garage rafters before sunrise Sept. 10 by her mother.
Arender lived less than a mile from the Mack's rural home about 65 miles south of Dallas, Navarro County Sheriff's Chief Deputy Mike Cox said. It wasn't immediately clear Friday if Arender had a lawyer yet who could comment on his behalf.
Arender was already in jail on unrelated burglary and drug possession charges. A DNA sample taken from the shirt Hanna was wearing was entered into a Texas Department of Public Safety DNA indexing program Wednesday, and it indicated Arender was a possible match, according to the arrest affidavit.
Arender was questioned Wednesday, and, according to the affidavit "would not give a statement, but put his head on the table and cried."
Two days before Arender was questioned, he cut himself with a piece of glass while in custody on the burglary charge and was taken to a hospital "because he was depressed," according to the affidavit.
Arender's bond is set at $2.5 million.
According to the affidavit, Hannah's body was nude from the waist down when police arrived at the family's home. A brown purse and a camera memory stick were also missing from the residence.
Family members have said Dana Mack saw the youngest of her three daughters sleeping on the couch around 1 a.m. before discovering Hanna's body.
"I'm just absolutely shocked," said Pam Gray, who lives behind the Mack's home. "I'll never have that sense of trust here again."
so sad
Two days before Arender was questioned, he cut himself with a piece of glass while in custody on the burglary charge and was taken to a hospital "because he was depressed," according to the affidavit.
This is a commen ploy used by criminals to move them to a psychiatric hosptial. Used extensively by British louts and gets the police off the hook too by transfering the problem.
So the original person of interest, the womans boyfried, wasn't the guy so many here was willing to hang.
...by the scrotum.
wow James Hetfield lookalike
Doesn't exactly sound like they have an open and shut case on this guy either.
I hope they catch the perp
Nah, invoke Rule 303.
So the live-in boyfriend is innocent.
My brother lived in Corsicana - 90% white trash.
I wonder if Sharpton and Jackson will show up...oh wait...that's just for empty nooses where no actual hanging takes place.
His DNA matched that found on the girl and the blood on a knife inside the house.
But the Step dad had kiddie porn on his computer. I think he was involved somehow. Maybe he set the crime up and watched.
Invoved somehow.
Or would be some time in the future.
Kiddie porn leads to something.
updates of above URLs.
For the rape.
Still up on the Kiddie Porn.
>>Two weeks ago, Navarro County officials announced the arrest of Kevin Wayne Anders, the live-in boyfriend of Hanna's mother. At the time, he was characterized as the "primary suspect" in the murder case, but was charged only with unlawful possession of child pornography, a third-degree felony. <<
Entering my dotage I guess, because I look at that precious little girl and cry.
Just shoot the perp.
Texas. Good. The p.o.s. should be getting the needle fairly quickly, maybe even within eight years.
Ah, some were ready to hang the mother too.
>>Investigators linked Shaun Earl Arender, who was already in jail on burglary and drug possession charges unrelated to the murder, to the crime scene with DNA evidence from Hannah's shirt, according to Navarro County Sheriff's Chief Deputy Mike Cox.<<
From here
Oh Please! That's an ignorant statement.
According to this report the affidavit says "possible match"
I used to live in New Middletown, Ohio, 99% white trash.
Having 'Earl' as a middle name makes a suspect instantly guilty, and you already know that.
All those who were attacking the mother should be ashamed.
I believe this happened around Navarro Mills Lake which is not Corsicana. Both are in Navarro County with Corsicana being the county seat. We had a lake house on Lake Richland Chambers and I did some work in Corsicana for two years. There are a lot of people who would be considered poor and some might be labeled white trash, but the majority are decent working people.
They have to say possible because DNA tests are never a 100%.
They found the DNA and checked it against the DNA on file.
They shouldn't call him a teenager.
It should read that he is an ADULT.
What do you define as an attack?
She married a man who had kiddie porn on his home computer. This was not the father of her child. If you define faulting the mother for putting her child in danger as an attack, then yes, she deserved the attack.
There is a memory stick from a camera missing. Hmmmmmm. I wonder what pictures were on there and of whom.
Well do we know that for sure? It seems like we always hear that and as far as that goes if it was adult porn would that also mean he was involved somehow? If someone views legal adult porn is that individual automaticaly suspect if a rape occurs in the neighborhood? BTW, some of the pics posted I have seen here in certain threads would be considered pornographic to some FReepers.
I'll take your 99 and raise you a hillbilly.
A person looking at Adult Pornography can act that out with a consenting adult.
So what does kiddie porn lead to? A consenting child?
I thought it was "Lee" as a middle name that made for instant guilt?
No problem, hang them both and let the man sort it out!
Hope he gets put in the general population, then gets the needle.
Hope he gets put in the general population, then gets the needle.
Not before he goes a half dozen rounds with someone. I volunteer.
"Arender's bond is set at $2.5 million."
How does someone get a chance to make bond in a capital murder case?
I'm right behind you.
James "Earl" Ray would object to that statment...
...had he not died in prison while serving a life sentence for murder.
Great movie eh?
If this guy's guilty, no punishment is too harsh for him. Just the absolute lowest scum is all he is.
You are no doubt right. Everyone (including me) who believes the police MAY have arrested the right man based on evidence is an ignorant, overzealous, maniacal fool.
We are peasants with pitchforks after the wrong man, because we are idiots who only look at a person's appearance.
The police arrested the wrong man, and you are certain of that.
Thanks for clearing that up.
Words fail me. This evil SOB deserves worse than death. Lock him in prison with a pervert who will do to him sexually what he did to this girl and then hang him.
We may need to come to a point when we demand killers get the same treatment they gave their victims. I'm okay with that...

HOUSTON (AP) - Plains All American Pipeline L.P. announced Monday that unauthorized crude oil trading by an employee cost the company as much as $160 million.
The news sent the company's stock price plunging $9 by early afternoon to $10.50, a 46 percent drop. Plains Resources Inc., which owns 54 percent of Plains All American, saw its afternoon stock price down $7.19 to $10.25, a 41 percent drop.
The stock price for Plains All American was at its lowest and volume at its highest since going public about a year ago.
Both companies said the loss will hurt their 1999 operating results and could affect previously announced results. They hired outside counsel and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to investigate.
Arthur Andersen LLP is conducting a preliminary independent review on behalf of Plains All American's lenders.

Over the past year or so, Amazon has added new incentives to its Associates Program, as well as discontinuing some of the services that have been around for awhile.
Some of these changes include:
- Native Shopping Ads
- Amazon CPM Ads have been around since 2014.
- Amazon Widgets are no longer available.
- Listmania Lists are no long available for incorporation in an aStore Category.
- Since the Spring 2015, Amazon has been offering "Home Services" giving associates a wider range of products to offer- that may require additional servicing after delivery. See more on Amazon Home Services here.
Recently, I took the opportunity to look into the Amazon CPM Ad Network and integrated specified ad codes in more popular areas of the qisoftware.com site, i.e., the blogs.
The ads have been running for about a day, however I was able to review performance reports based on almost "real time" [delayed in most cases by no more than 4 hours] reporting.
I also use the Amazon Product Advertising API, however because of a security risk with triggers I build into my code/widgets, I have discontinued their use for now. Sometime in the future, I hope to re-establish this important monetization feature for the WiredPages area [sub-domain] of qisoftware.com.

Recently, I downloaded the Google My Business App to my android.
Though I maintain business profiles on sites like LinkedIn and PayPal, I have done little with Google's business resources other than- note my business site and address can be found via their search tools.
After downloading, I updated my business information via both the Google My Business App and using a web browser on one of my PCs. Quite frankly, I did not know Google offered these resources for business owners, even though I use several of their tools, e.g. AdSense, Analytics, Webmasters Tools, etc.
Shown below, both the android app and the web page version where you can also update your business information.
The resource also provides Insights about your online business presence. If you are already using Google Analytics [with your business site], some of the information may overlap that- offered by the Insights. Information about your Google+ [Googleplus] posts, is also provided.
Read more about the "Google My Business" resource here:

qisoftware.com and the associated sub-domains use several metric services to measure site analytics and traffic, including:
- Google Analytics
- Quantcast
- Compete
- ShareThis-- recently stopped offering analytics services, however qisoftware.com source pages still show the old scripts.
- Alexa
I have been using these services for some time, however tend to get around to adding new definitions or isolation parameters in a haphazard non-timely manner, especially where Google Analytics is concerned.
For instance, most sub-domains of qisoftware.com- gather and report information using the same top-level Analytics tracking code as that used by the main domain- www.qisoftware.com.
What this means? It is harder to separate and visualize www.qisoftware.com traffic from let's say- traffic to this blog [remix.qisoftware.com].
Sometime ago, I added a separate tracking code for "It's Personal", my personal blog at personal.qisoftware.com mainly to experiment. Up until recently, I had separate tracking codes for the following qisoftware properties:
- qisoftware.com
- hosting-q.com
- personal.qisoftware.com
- qisoftware.tumblr.com
As noted by the following illustrations, a couple of days ago [Wednesday, Sept 16, 2015], I added a separate tracking code for Remix the sub-domain remix.qisoftware.com [this blog].
I also had to make minor updates to the underlying theme for my Thingamablog Template and update one of the Custom Tags. Illustration shows the Thingamablog application where these updates are used:
Remix [this blog], is not as popular as some of the other areas of qisoftware.com, and as of today, showing "temporarily unavailable" for data being received by Google Analytics. Below, I am showing illustrations from the Google Analytics App of both It's Personal tracking and the new Remix.
When I move the site, and make necessary changes to both WiredPages and the NS&J Forums, I will add separate tracking codes for these areas too. Most of my site's [qisoftware.com] areas use ecommerce ads and tools-- so I am hoping these more specific tracking codes for each area will help to produce more insights for better site monetization.

Recently, an API source touched base about changes that will go into effect mid August 2015, as related to usage of their offerings.
As many of you may be aware, because of security issues I have done little to update the underlying code for widgets and applications I maintain on WiredPages and other areas of the QiSoftware site [qisoftware.com].
I am still hoping that my issues, as related to Washington will resolve themselves so that I can move on -- and move my sites. There is really no point in updating software and site functionality before such time.
That said, yesterday I did update the code for the API data source in question, based on the recommendation of the source-- and then tested the code.
It felt great to fire up my IDE [Netbeans] and work on a programming issue, though the issue very minor in nature.
No, I did not install the new Java Class file for the updated code. As I explained in an earlier post, when I write mini applications and widgets for WiredPages and other areas of qisoftware.com-- I secure them to my server's IP address-- so that no one else can run the widget/application from other domains. Some may have noticed the "No Authorization" message.
Awhile back, my web hosting platform-- changed the IP address for the hosting-q.com domain where I maintain most of the servlets for my applications. This looked suspicious because of the timing and why they may have wanted me to change the IP address within the security section of my code. I chose not to update the code with the new IP address thinking this would be over any day... That is still the premise- "this will be over any day". I will update all of the applications and widgets when I move my domains to new servers. Hopefully, when this ends.
DOJ/FBI, some I feel are having a hard time with-- no.. Please help them to get off my sites. Check tapes from July 12th, 2015. Thank you.
This post mainly to remind visitors and US Government employees-- my position on these matters. I said no. New Bag Reference

QiSoftware, a legal business entity in the State of Maryland was recently renewed for another 5 years. See this link for the previous reference.
Recent changes on Maryland's Online Business Search site have voided the old links I maintained on this blog which provided quick access to QiSoftware business information maintained by the state.
To access the information now, click on this link and use either the Entity Name "QiSoftware" or Department ID="T00212348" option from the pull menu [lower page area] to review the business information for QiSoftware.

As you are aware, over the years I have developed a myriad of Web 2.0 tools and widgets for use on WiredPages. Over the last two years several tools have become inoperable because the resources I used to power the tools no longer work the way they did when I wrote the individual interfaces.
The reasons I do not update code in this time period-- are well documented. Legal issues with Washington are unresolved and the security of my working code would be at risk. Many of the repairs were easy because I have all of my old source code and I have already researched ways to correct the problems.
That said, over the weekend I received notification from my qisoftware.com web hosting provider that the IP address for my domain would be changing. I thought there would be a problem, in that I include a security feature in most of programs that disables the program if it is not being served up from one of my sites [hosting-q.com and qisoftware.com] via the respective IP addresses that were assigned when I originally wrote the code.
Yesterday, most of the widgets went dead. They are not really dead, they simply will provide a "not authorized" message insofar as usage because the IP address changed for qisoftware.com.
The IP change has also affected the Amazon Widget I developed for the It's Personal Blog. All versions of the Blogger Calendar remain operational.
At this time, I have no plans to make the necessary minor updates to the underlying source code for the programs to make the tools operational again. It is more related to security issues.
This note, simply to explain the issues involved. There is also a blog post [dated March 9th, 2014-- I try not to link to Q's Wire in that someday I hope to remove that personal blog from qisoftware.com] on Q's Wire that discusses the IP change and what would most likely happen.

Each day that ammonia is 0 and you still have nitrites, 1/2 dose again until you have both 0 ammonia and 0 nitrites. once you hit that sweet spot and you also have nitrates, you're cycled.

I agree with Ziggy et al., I/K are faboulous and talented, but this program... Horrible music, overdone expression, very little going on between the elements. I wish they run from Morozov and got programs that do them justice.

Often got level 4 on twizzles.
Im too lazy to check, but I remember last year, in one event (dont remember if it was European or Words) in the SD they were the only ones to hit level 4 in step sequences.
Im not an expert by any means, but many different commentators on TV stated numerous times that the technical content of their programs is one of the most difficult and very well executed. So just have been wondering....
I know it's nothing new but it's still hilarious: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hddOWV_j92U (Morozov during I/K's skate. I don't think he's gonna make it through I/K's Olympic FD to be honest )
We've all had an evening to cool off from this heated discussion. On the whole the fd was great to watch. It's great to see these skaters really push themselves. Teams to commend. Hurtado/Diaz for their cool fd with lots of personality and a very original stationary lift. Agafonova and ucar for really attacking their fd and really showing how much they have stepped up (zhulin has worked wonders with them) as well as using fairy tale for their sd. Both German teams really stepped it up this year. Penny and nick were also wonderful continuing to improve on the whole with big personal bests. Despite our opinions of the skating skills of the top 4 teams, they delivered technically strong and on the whole interesting programs to enjoy or to observe.
I tried my best to understand the concept of the free dance but the more I see this program more questions than answers come to mind.
I tried to understand it. I really did
I too hope she doesn't get hurt.
Not only a poor choreographer, but also a poor human being. But maybe some people would say "So what?", that's how it goes in Skating/Showbiz.
They'll be skating in the Gala on Sunday.
I'm aware of the reservations posters on here have about them, and they do look like a Pair rather than a Dance couple, due to their height disparity. If you were a Coach, you wouldn't put them together today, but they've been partners since Novices, and are a happy 'couple', and they continue to improve technically IMO, so it's nice to read a bit of praise for the Brits on this thread, thank you.
I think it is not any problem to get level 4 when Ottavio Cinquanta is sitting at the ice rink and watching the competition. And I think that level 4 element definition - say nothing about speed or deep edges. All great skaters of past were known for their speed and deep and long edges - Cappelini does not have it. Even poor skater can do spin level 4 which says nothing about quality of that element. And judges GOE - Hello Mr. Cinquanta!
I agree with Ziggy too, I/K are very talented couple but in comparison with Davis, Virtue, Bobrova, Pechalat - their program is not difficult to skate. Also the idea of the program - I don't see heart and soul of those two in it. There is not artistic indeed.
And one question more - Lena is looking so touched and happy at the end of the program like it was the best skating of her life, like she would surprise herself of how great she was. That's great!! But..... she looks like that after each performance....is it possible to skate the performance of her life every time? I feel it is not frank from her side....only actress playing for judges. Sorry I feel it that way.
I just think dating in the "business" is very dangerous and hard forget about the age difference. In the case of a coach and choreographer and a skater it is almost like breaking a moral condcut rule with doctor patient. You can se ethe problems in respect to their business relationship including if there is a third party - not in the relationship but another skater who is being coached or choreographed by one member in the relationship. And I am sorry if this is wrong to comment on but in the case of Morosov with all these skating rrelationships you would think his reputation would be tarnished and that he would realize whether these relationships are genuine or just a person who plays the field, likes younger partners to make him or her feel better about their self esteem when it si so public yhou would hold back. I mean what are the odds you would have relationships (boyfriend girlfriend) with so many top level skaters - you lose your credibility. Maybe after so many broken relationships all ivolving skaters it is time to take a break. Take up crochet, solitaire or something for a bit.
I've been a fan of I&K since I have first saw them. I can't really say I know much about skating so I don't dare to judge how good they are. But I fell in love with them for being so adorable, so cute and so in love with each other. And I am aware of the fact that their private life is only their bussiness but I still feel very disappointed about the whole Morozov thing. I found Elena and Nikita perfect for each other and I know that maybe they didn't break up because of Morozov but would break up anyway. But still ... I find Nikita awesome and Morozov just plain creepy. Anyway, all respect for both skaters that this soap opera didn't effect their career.

Video Game Graphics
Video Game Graphics
Mar 28, 2007 9:57PM PST
Ok, so all three of the next-gen consoles are here and have been out for some time. I have nothing against the Wii, but seeing how I am talking graphics in this Blog...I am going to exclude it. So here we go, the PS3 and Xbox 360 both are very capable of displaying high quality graphics far beyond any previous generation console such as the Playstation 2. Now this post is a more of a question, either comment your response, answer this question via poll, or both. In your opinion, do you think one day in the far future we will reach a maximum level of graphic displays? Where games will be so clear it's as if it is real life. Do you think there will be a time when the graphics in video games are so good they will be impossible to exceed? Seriously, lets say video game graphics do one day look like real life, how could you make it better? We don't know what better than real life looks like you know? I'm looking forward to hearing your responses on this.

2006 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Sedan E350 4MATIC 4dr Sedan AWD (3.5L 6cyl 5A)
My 06 is currently under MB Manufactures warrantee and I have been fighting with MB to replace my faulty transmission.At 28 mph, it skips.MB tells me there is nothing wrong and this is normal performance!!!!I am filing complaints with every agency.I paid an extra $2k for my extended warrantee when I bought my certified used MB and MB will not fix this!!!!I would NEVER buy this car!!!!!
Replace faulty transmission!!!!
Ever since I first saw the exterior styling of this E350 I've wanted one. The style was continued until 2009, and then changed in 2010 to a more angular look. So the 2006 looks exactly like the 2009 and the same model before it. This model has more pep than I realized, and I like the details and safety of the car. Very comfy.
Control center, seat adjustment and memory, Navigation system, handling, dual sport/comfort gearing, appearance, ride, safety. Auxiliary connection for iPhone.
Better gas mileage, built-in iPod/iPhone amplifier into sound system
I was pulling out of a parking lot onto a busy street, and a pickup truck was bearing down on me; so I gave it some gasit let out a low roar and went into hyper space. I did not expect that kind of performance, but it was there when I needed it. I've always liked the design of this model on the outside, but the inside is gorgeous too. I'm using a car covermy last Mercedes Benz (bought new in 1983240D) lasted me 16 years; and I hope this one does too. The car cover helps keep the nicks and scratches down and protects it from UV rays-- looks like new for life!
1. The cockpit 2. Solid handling--stability 3. Power when needed 4. Wheel, seat memory 5. General exterior appearance
1. Gas mileage 2. Requires premium gas
I have had this car almost two years, bought it MB certified but have had zero problems with it. Driven on on trips, heavy traffic, everything and the car handles it all. Was even great in the snow last winter. Highly recommended.
interior design and Harmon/Kardan sound
Just purchases this 350E AWD w/17200 miles on it. Beautiful vehicle. My 4th Mercedes. No complaints on vehicle purchase. Love the car. Whisper quiet on highway.
Driver & passenger comfort
Somewhat confusing controls

MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) - The third victory of Ernie Els' terrific season was the most dramatic.
Els rallied for a 10-stroke deficit in the final two rounds to successfully defend his Heineken Classic title Sunday, posting a one-stroke victory over Nick Faldo and Peter Lonard.
Els secured his 10th worldwide victory in 1312 months when Lonard missed a 9-foot par putt on the difficult final hole at Royal Melbourne. Els played the final 36 holes in 13 under.
The 45-year-old Faldo, winless since the PGA Tour's 1997 Nissan Open, finished at par for a 69, while Lonard settled for a 68 after his closing bogey.

St. Pierre (6-3, 230) was originally drafted by the Steelers in the fifth round (163rd overall) in the 2003 NFL Draft. He then spent time on both the active roster and the practice squad for Pittsburgh before being waived on Sept. 3, 2005. St. Pierre was signed to the Baltimore Ravens' practice squad on Sept. 22, 2005, before being signed to the active roster on Dec. 8.
St. Pierre, who was waived by the Ravens on Sept. 2, 2006, has played in one career game, which was the Steelers' season finale against the Buffalo Bills on Jan. 2, 2005.
To make room for St. Pierre on the practice squad, the Steelers released fullback John Kuhn. Kuhn (6-0, 255) spent part of the 2005 season on the team's practice squad and was signed to this year's practice squad on Sunday, Sept. 3.
The longest interview of a practice-squad player in Steelers history occurred at noon on Labor Day and was headed up by Fox Pittsburgh's Paul Alexander. Here's Brian St. Pierre:
You still have the old official nameplate. How does it feel?
It feels good to be back. I'm excited. I kind of got a crash course in the game plan last night with Coach [Mark] Whipple, so we'll see how it goes.
Is this déjà vu all over again?
Yeah. I felt a little weird walking in but it hasn't felt like it's been that long. There was some recall of the offense, some familiar faces. It's good to see the guys.
What happened with the Ravens?
They weren't going to keep two. That was made clear pretty early on. At practice the third guy wasn't even getting reps, so I kind of had an inkling it wasn't going to work out there. Luckily for me Pittsburgh needed a guy to come in and I'm glad to be here.
Are you in shape?
I feel good. I went through a whole training camp and prepared like I always did.
Are there any strange faces here?
There are still some new guys I don't know, but there's a lot of recall with some familiar faces. I'm looking forward to working with them.
Does the game plan look good?
Yeah it does. Hopefully we'll be ready. Hopefully I can do my part in practice and show them I'm ready to go.
Did you talk to Coach [Bill] Cowher yet?
Yeah, I talked to him last night. He just said we're going to see how practice goes and we'll go from there, take it day by day.
Do you expect to be activated by Thursday?
My plan is to go out and practice and show them I have some recall of the offense and the decision's in their hands. Hopefully that's their decision.
[Second wave of reporters approaches.]
What happened in Baltimore?
They weren't going to keep three quarterbacks. It was made known pretty early on that third guys aren't really getting much reps at all. So, I did what I could with the opportunity I got, which wasn't much, and then I ended up here.
Were you afraid that you burned a bridge when you turned them down last year to stay with Baltimore's practice squad?
Yeah. I didn't want it to come off like that but I was told by Baltimore I was going to be brought up at the end of the season for four or five games and they actually did that, and I wasn't sure if coming back here was just going to be for a couple games with Ben [Roethlisberger] coming back, so I had to make the best business decision for me. It wasn't an easy decision by any stretch, and then to miss the Super Bowl, I mean, that's tough but that's just the way it worked out but I'm glad to be back.
Obviously, they didn't feel as if you'd burned a bridge.
I would hope not. It was mutual respect. It wasn't like I said, no way, forget about it. I just felt like I might have an opportunity here. I didn't know they were going to go out and get Steve McNair in the offseason. I was kind of surprised a little bit. It's just the way it worked out.
Ever imagine you'd be back in this locker room?
When I left here I wasn't sure if I'd ever be back or not, but they brought me in the league. They drafted me and I felt loyal to them. Obviously I left and was upset that I got cut because I wanted to be here but it's good to be back for sure.
Somebody thought that might happen since they kept your name plate.
Yeah. I guess that's a good sign.
What were you thinking while the Steelers went on their run last year?
I was rooting like heck for them because I've got a lot of friends on this team and it was great to see Ben play as well as he did and for guys to step up through the injuries. To be on the fringe of not making the playoffs and then to go on that run is pretty amazing.
At best you'll be here a couple weeks. Do you think it could be longer?
I don't really know. I've just got to go out there and try and get a snap from center and try to remember the cadence.
Do you still remember the basis philosophy and terminology?
They like to run the ball here I think. I think I can do that.

All my life I wanted to be an artist. I drew every day as a child, as an adolescent and even now into adulthood. College, though, changed me forever. The first art class I signed up for was Art History. It was also the last art class I ever took because I was required to take a humanities class. That class would lead me down the path to attaining a B.S. in Social Science. My required Western Civ class was followed by Western Civ II, then World History, US History, Russian History, and many more. I couldn't get enough history. My professors had introduced me to the idea that studying history allows you to know what you stand for. I wasn't just learning history; I was learning who I was and what I wanted to be. I was beginning to think that I wanted to be a history teacher.
I was at a crossroads. Becoming a teacher meant I would give up on my previous passion and I knew I didn't want to sacrifice any of my art. I now know I do not have to be a history teacher at the expense of being an artist. History Illustrated has given me the chance to pursue all of my passions and give me extreme satisfaction in life.

PepeLeMoko's Profile
Pepe Le Moko is a husband and wife collaboration that goes back almost four decades. Our workshop is a renovated space in a funky old Coast Guard Station on Puget Sound.
The name Pepe Le Moko comes from a l937 French film of the same name. The name has always given us a chuckle and we never forgot it, so we decided to call our Etsy shop "Pepe Le Moko". We thought Pepe needed a monkey with a fez so that's where the avatar came from. That is not to say a monkey could make our jewelry, but who knows, monkeys are pretty smart.
The husband half of our duo, we'll call him 'Pepe', had a two year apprenticeship with a modernist jeweler learning fabrication techniques in San Francisco nearly 40 years ago and then went on to study with two other jewelers learning wax sculpting and casting techniques. He has been making fine jewelry ever…

no, I mean HTML5 application development tooling support in Visual Studio.
OK, IE9 is the user's story about HTML5, now you should deliver the HTML5 story to the developers !
and, it looks like JavaScript is the new hot 'dynamic language' at Microsoft, wonder what will happen on wider support of it in the DevDiv, like, revamp the JS.NET to be a fist-class ?
I remember Ballmer mention the tree-pillar of Windows 8 application platform: the native, the managed, and the javascript. what is the 'javascript as native app' thing all about ?
WP7 team said : http://windowsteamblog.com/windows_phone/b/wpdev/archive/2011/02/14/building-the-next-great-mobile-software-developer-opportunity.aspx
Nokia, and now Microsoft, are committed to making sure that your contributions to and investments in the Nokia ecosystem will be worthwhile. In the coming weeks we will provide more information about programs that will help you access the Symbian and Qt opportunities more effectively.
So how many weeks the 'coming weeks' are ??
and, there is something only the vc team could talk about, since VC2010 comes with no 'smart device' support, WEC7 uses VS2008 as the development tool, on the other hand Windows itself is going ARM, so here is a questin: will VC11 support ARM ? if no, then we can forget Qt for WP7, if yes, thats something to begin with, and then, the next question goes to the WP team.
my personal guessing would be: Native for WP7 ? possibly(1). Qt for WP7 ? very unlikely.
but as long as you can compile C++ to WP7, you can always leverage those non-ui part of Qt as your libraries.
(1) as Diegum said: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/vcblog/archive/2011/02/24/10133517.aspx
A few days ago I compiled all these claims for native support in WP7 and send that for the wp7 team. Not sure if, as your advocate, I'm to win the case but I keep my bets high. I'm confident that the same will start happening with other techs as well (xna, etc)

@new2STL: well, as a user I do love Window 7 and never looked back after upgrading from XP. but as a developer its another story, I need to deploy my software to the existing infrastructure of those large and sturborn orgnaziations, I cant tell them to upgrading all their machines so I can sell my product to them, heck, I even need to support Windows 2000 in some special scenarios, and in VC2010 this need some nasty hack:
fortunately its not a show stopper. but abandoning XP definetly is, oh, guess I have to stick with VS2010/NET4 for a while. but I guess Silverlight 5+ will support XP at least, with P/Invoke support there is hope for me to switch to Silverlight OOB or desktop app model, wooho.
oh, MFC is way too old and not really worth put more resources on it, given how 'resource constrained' your teams are. you should really design your architecture in a modern and standard way, WTL looks better but it operate on those GDI/HWND directly, so its not suitable for a modern rendering stack using D2D/DWrite and support for touch/NUI stuff. Hopefully the native and managed GUI framework (WPF) can share the same underlying rendering stack, and a similiar markup language (XAML). actually the XAML support already exist in the Windows Ribbon Framework, with UICC.
well, but my concern is, if you build the stack using D2D, it means no XP support, which is not acceptable, and become totally useless to me, unless you designed it in a pluggable way so we can fallback to other things on XP. just like what WPF4 did with text rendering.

(Native GUI development in Blend would be very cool!)

no we are not going to stop calling it so, for the sole purpose of irritating those people who doesnt like it, any problem with that ?
OK its a good confession post, but, not so encouraging because, well, I myself is a half-c#-half-native-C++ coder and C++/CLI is my glue, now I am frustrated.
and, I am also worrying in another way, cause I dont think C++/CLI is part of the grand new plan for native 'reinanssance', its just some dirty work that have to be done, and if its the case, then it is occupying too much resources of the team, potentially affecting the real exciting new stuff, I can feel the pressure, bad for the health.
actually this is NOT so cool ...... we used to have it in previous versions.
and C++/CLI is NOT about native coding ...... ok sort of but not primarily.
and that post is actually an apology:
We realize this wasn't what you wanted to happen and an explanation doesn't help you get your work done if you are affected by this, but we want you to know the truth.
@felix9 Thank you for doing some research but I think you will find the only piece of literature worth quoting about C++ is the standard itself. I did acknowledge the origins of the name "STL" in my second post and queried if we were talking about the same dead implementation and it seems we are.
if read carefully you can see that all of my quotes are talking about the part of the actual standard library, the 'dead implementation' is only mentioned when people want to explain 'why' they are using this term this way.
I dont think the standard itself is 'the only piece of literature worth quoting', surely you are getting way too formal here. this term is so widely used in the industry and academia, everybody understand it and take it naturally, if you want to talk that way then good for you, but we are living people and we dont need to always speak the 'iso standard' language.

Home > News > Nanotech Policy Predictions
September 10th, 2003
I recently asked a few nano-contemplators what they thought was going to happen next on the nanotech policy front. I incorporated some of their ideas in my last Small Times column, but I spent so much space spouting my own opinions that some of their best ideas were left on the cutting-room floor. So, here are excerpts from a couple of them in response to a few of my questions. I'll post more of these later, too.
