Legal requirements of employers: 1. Introduction
1. Introduction
Employers have a duty to recognise dyslexia under the Equality Act 2010, if it is assessed as being a disability. This means that employers should ensure that disabled people are not treated unfavourably and are offered reasonable adjustments or support.
The law states: 'A person (P) has a disability if —
(a) P has a physical or mental impairment, and
(b) the impairment has a substantial and long-term adverse effect on P's ability to carry out normal day-to-day activities.'
Not all people with dyslexia have impairments that have substantial or long term adverse effects and would not be seen as being disabled. This is often because they have compensated well and developed good coping strategies or are working in areas where their dyslexia may have little effect. It is important to remember that circumstances can change if demands of a job change or coping strategies break down for any reason.

Rail Systems Design, Simulation and Testing
Build comfortable and high-performing rail systems with low environmental impact through simulation and testing
Rail transport is a key element in the mobility of communities, moving citizens and goods in comfort and safety while minimizing environmental impact. However, this type of transport can be a source of noise, vibration and pollution, and might therefore be seen as a potential nuisance or threat to the surrounding infrastructure. Whether you are manufacturing train, tram, metro, subway, light rail or monorail systems, Siemens PLM Software offers a comprehensive, integrated design, simulation and manufacturing environment for rail systems. Our solutions include test and mechatronic design for noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) engineering, durability, thermal and energy management, dynamics, controls development and much more.
Managing the pass-by-noise of trains is a constraint in cities with dense populations, and the functional performance and reliability of rail systems are a major operational concern. Siemens PLM Software offers solutions to predict and to test the noise impact of rail resigns on the environment, as well as verify the effect of countermeasures. Several 3D simulation techniques, complemented by advanced testing methodologies, help you solve noise problems.
To address soaring oil prices and increasing pollution, governments and transportation authorities are exploring alternative options, such as electrical propulsion. Our solutions help rail manufacturers design electromechanical components for optimal performance, while 1D solutions and dedicated model libraries help you optimize the entire propulsion system in early design stage.
Train manufacturers must offer a quiet and comfortable ride. Comfortable seats, low background noise and an optimal design of in-vehicle audio systems add a lot of value to the travel experience, and are seen as key differentiators. Siemens PLM Software offers rail design, simulation and testing solutions to optimize noise and vibration comfort at the seats, and to design audio systems for optimal speech intelligibility. Using 3D simulation, complemented by testing, you can optimize the position and orientation of speakers and choose the best acoustic treatment for the unit's panels.
Siemens PLM Software solutions help you make smart design decisions, so that your rail systems carry people and freight cheaper, faster, quieter and cleaner.

The RC Logger Xtreme micro quad is amazingly easy to fly. With the upgraded props it can lift 100 grams. That is GoPro territory. The second I had it flying in stock form I wanted to get some FPV gear on it. One of the possible problems is the frame is so compact that all the components are too close together. This is where Phoenix Flight Gear comes in. I was on the forum and saw a post by the owner (and RCG user) featuring his new Phoenix Flight Gear Xtreme CarbonSpyder foldable FPV micro frame frame that retails for $80. I had to get one to review.
|Xtreme CarbonQuad FPV Micro Frame - RCGroups (16 min 3 sec)
The frame is made so you can mount your FPV gear on it. You could mount an RC Logger Pro, a Mobius or a micro FPV camera. There are also mounting locations for your video TX and batteries. Remember that weight is your enemy so keep it small and light.
One of the coolest things about this frame is that it folds. With the props removed the footprint is 180x100mm.
The frame is made from 3k twill weave carbon fiber with no glass fillers or composites. The frame was designed to accommodate the stock motors but you can also upgrade to the T-motor 1306-20 3100v motor.
I was also sent the top mount accessory plate. The accessory plate is cut from 1mm 3k twill weave carbon fiber and includes all hardware needed. This also allows you to mount the FPV camera piece between the two plates. This retails at $30.
Here are my photos showing the disassembly of the Xtreme and the assembly of the Phoenix Gear frame. You can find the online instructions here.
I mounted my FPV gear - the RC Logger Pro and RC Logger video Tx. The Pro can serve as an FPV cam and record video as well. I also added a 350 mAH lipo from one of my sailplanes to power the video TX. I was very surprised how much authority the Xtreme had with these components added to it. I got one flight time around 7 minutes but 6 minutes was the average when fully loaded.
After just a few sessions it's pretty easy to get this quad flying smoothly. It is the perfect size for my backyard excursions. The limited battery time means you better keep it nearby. After more than a few spills the frame held together well. To date I have hung it up in tree, made hard landings, flipped it over, and slammed it into the ground. So far I haven't broken anything, including the props. I would caution you to check the nuts holding the arms in place. These will loosen up after a few good hits. I'm happy to say the Xtreme flies just as well, if not better, with the frame from Phoenix.
If you are looking to trick out your Xtreme and add some FPV gear this frame is the way to go. The build was a little tedious but easy over all. I'm looking forward to more FPV adventures with this micro quad in the future.

"featuring his new Xtreme carbon fiber folding Extreme frame that retails for $80"
VERY cool little quad!
ordered this and rclogger xtreme. Turns out that the frame came before quad because of the firmware recall. Cant wait for this Backyard FPV!
i didn't get a top plate. looks like i can put the mobius up front and bottom. FPV camera up front top in the mount. battery bottom back and Tx back top.
Is everyone using a separate lipo for the transmitter? What tx fpv combo is everyone using...
I am looking forward to getting this frame for my Xtreme. Great write up!

Top Gear's James May presented a program about his Top Toys, and this is the segment on the number 1 toy – the train set. We also get a glimpse of Pete Waterman's O Gauge layout. This all too brief video gives a nice introduction to the Hornby and Triang model railways of the UK as well as the hobby of train collecting. Train collecting is much different from building model railroads because the purest collector never runs his trains. In fact, in their best case scenario the toys are never even removed from the box.

It does not matter how many times you have tried to quit smoking in the past, this time will be THE time that you are successful. You need to be mentally prepared, recognize triggers, and have a plan in place that will have you smelling fresh for the days ahead. Read on if you want to know the best ways to beat this habit.
Write down the reasons why you want to quit smoking. Post the list someplace where you'll see it every day, to help keep you motivated. Include not only the reasons that directly benefit you, but also the reasons that quitting will benefit your friends and family. Being able to read your list every day will remind you of why you stopped smoking in the first place.
TIP! Replace your pack of cigarettes with an electronic cigarette. Many former smokers have found success with these devices, which work by vaporizing a liquid that contains nicotine.
Make a list of reasons that you want to quit smoking, and keep them in your wallet. Your reasons may include your family, living to see a special event, or anything you find meaningful. Whenever you have moments of weakness, pull out your list for several reminders of what you are working toward.
When you are first trying to quit smoking, try to avoid places that you associate with smoking. This might mean staying away from your favorite bar or the smoking spot at work. Staying away from these places also means staying away from temptation, which can be a very important thing to do when you are first trying to quit.
TIP! Quit smoking to improve your smile. People who smoke often fall victim to yellow teeth, persistent bad breath, and even gum disease.
In order to quit smoking, find something else you can hold in your hand and put in your mouth. Many smokers find it hard to quit because they have an urge to have a cigarette in their hands and mouth. Rather than a cigarette, you can hold onto a straw.
If you are serious about quitting your smoking habit, you need to get good at it. Most ex-smokers you know probably didn't find success their first time. Stop smoking, and make a strong effort to avoid starting again as long as possible. If you backslide and give in to a cigarette, set another date to quit. Try quitting and remember to try longer each time, as you learn along the way. Hopefully, you will eventually come to a place that you will quit and it will last forever.
TIP! Take the time to really sit down and think about how quitting smoking will improve your life. This is especially effective if you already have serious health conditions that smoking can exacerbate, like asthma or diabetes.
Write down why you're quitting ahead of time and keep that list handy. When that craving hits you, refer to your list for motivation. Understanding ahead of time why quitting is important to you will help to keep you focused in those moments of weakness, and it might even help to get you back on track if you should slip up.
You should make sure you have an appropriate reward system in place for such a difficult task. You will want to reward yourself for at least the first three days of quitting and the first two weeks. After that, monthly milestones are worth a celebration until you hit the annual mark. You can choose your reward based on the time elapsed as well, making success that much sweeter.
TIP! When you quit smoking, clean your home thoroughly, if you smoked indoors. Clean your carpets, your curtains, your clothes and your furniture.
There is no easy way to quit smoking. But if you are truly dedicated to getting rid of this habit once and for all, then put the tips that have been provided to you to good use. A day at a time, sometimes even an hour at a time, is the mentality that will get you through.

Several years ago, Matt and I decided to take the boat to the Florida Keys for vacation. The
drive from Central Virginia to Islamorada is a grueling 1100 mile gauntlet of fast food, gas
station coffee and rest stops. With only one week for vacation, we decided to drive down non-
stop while our wives flew down to meet us. Seventeen hours after we left Richmond, we arrived
in Tavernier. Rather than unpack or even wait for our wives to arrive from the airport in Miami,
we headed straight to the boat ramp and went fishing… We'd already been up for more than 24
hours straight, but we were too excited for exhaustion.
Altogether, the trip was about as good as we could have hoped for. Matt caught his first tarpon
and I caught my first sailfish – all from a 19' center console bobbing around between Florida Bay
and 35 miles off shore in the Gulf Stream. In the spirit of Extreme Fishing, here are a couple of
the memorable stories from that trip.
Color Matters
Early in the week, Matt and I decided to go exploring in Florida Bay and Everglades National
Park. The fishing there includes a wide variety of opportunities from mangrove snapper to
bonefish and tarpon and we were excited to try it all. But exploring the Bay as a new area can
be tricky, with narrow navigation channels running between small mangrove islands. Entering
these channels is a little like passing on a blind curve – you can't see what's around the next
bend and even in a small boat and there are shallow places where you've got to stay up on a
plane to avoid running aground. In the absence of channel markers, the only clue to "deep"
water is its color. Shallow water looks brown, deeper water looks green. Everyone knows this.
During our exploration, Matt was driving the boat while we scoped out likely places to fish.
Every turn into the mangroves looked promising but without a good chart, we found ourselves a
little disoriented. At some point, knowing the tide was outgoing and the water getting shallower
by the minute, we decided to head back in the general direction of the condo and fish closer
to home. The wisdom of our choice was confirmed when we rounded a bend between several
islands and saw a larger boat had run hard aground.
We stopped to offer assistance, but the captain was busy red-lining the diesels in reverse,
kicking up clouds of sand in the water trying to power the big boat off the sand bar. Matt and
I noticed two things almost immediately: First, all of his bilge pumps were working overtime
pumping cloudy water out of his bilge; and second was the pungent odor of anti-freeze. When
he finally noticed us idling behind him, I suggested that he take it easy on the motors and Matt
offered him a ride back to his marina so he could get help. He thanked us and declined, saying
that he'd be off the sandbar as soon as the tide changed.
Matt and I exchanged a look… we both knew from the endless stream of water coming from
his bilge that IF he managed to get off the sandbar, the boat would never make it to a marina.
As gently as we could, we pointed to the water gushing out of the stern bilge pump, and
said, "Looks look you're taking on water, leaving it up on that sandbar might actually be a pretty
good idea." In all our time on the water, I don't think I've ever heard a recreational boater
put together a more creative string of profanities. He cursed the entirety of maritime history
going back to Magellan, swore to murder shipwrights all over the world and mentioned his boat
broker's lineage at least twice. When it was clear he was just getting his second wind, Matt and
I drifted off to what sounded like a challenge for Poseidon himself to appear and swallow-up
Florida Bay.
On our way back to the condo, I noticed that Matt was making some odd choices of his own
navigating around the mangroves. When channel markers were close by, he managed to
stay in deep water, but when none were in sight, he'd take short cuts across sandy points and
shallow water. Finally, with the big boat episode fresh in my mind, I suggested he stick to the
channel. He kind of nodded and said, "Uh-huh."
After a couple more close calls, I politely inquired, "Hey, moron, you TRYING to kill us?" Matt,
who's fluent in sign language, responded using the one sign that's understood the world over,
the one-finger salute, and yelled, "It's not as easy as you think" over the roar of the outboard.
We were doing close to 40 MPH.
"What do you mean it's not easy", I screamed, "the brown water's shallow and the green water's
deep. Everyone knows this. Drive in the GREEN water."
I recognized the deer in the headlight stare, followed by a flicker of light in his eyes, and I could
tell that something had just clicked. He finally shouted, "I'm red-green color blind, I can't tell
brown from green…"
I drove the rest of the way back to the condo and we stayed away from the mangroves for the
rest of the week.

Lots of celebrities try their hand at surfing. It's one of those things that celebrities do from time-to-time like a fashion trend.
Comedian Adam Sandler got on that train in the early 2000s and was consistently seen giving it a go at Malibu. He was on the "Conan" show this week and talked to Conan O'Brien and Andy Richter about his last surfing experience at the iconic Southern California spot.
Sandler starts off by calling himself "terrible" at surfing and then goes into a bit of an etiquette lesson before telling the story. Essentially, Sandler had cut off a big guy who was actually a truck driver on a wave. Sandler eventually felt the man's hands on his butt before the truck driver launched Sandler out the back and off the wave.
RELATED: 7 celebrities you didn't know can surf
When Sandler came up he found the truck driver still on the wave and staring directly at him giving him the finger. Sandler does admit he cut the guy off and shouldn't have done it.
While a surfer cutting off another surfer at Malibu is nothing new, it is a funny story to hear that Sandler had his butt grabbed first before being launched. We'd be interested in hearing the truck driver's take on this one and if he knew it was Adam Sandler or not.

|A motorbike DINEPA team tests the levels of chlorine at a water trucking distribution point in Port au Prince.
By Sabine Dolan
PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti, 27 October 2010 – While efforts to contain the cholera epidemic are ongoing in the affected zones of the Artibonite region, UNICEF and its partners have been gearing up for a potential outbreak in Haiti's capital, Port-au-Prince.
Access to safe water has been at the forefront of preparation efforts here and the large-scale chlorination of water sources has been intensified.
"Chlorination of water remains the most effective control measure for water borne bacterial diseases and levels are being increased two- to three-fold for water supplies trucked to displacement sites across earthquake-affected areas," said Mark Henderson, Chief of UNICEF's Water, Sanitation and Hygiene section.
Chlorination and Hygiene are essential
UNICEF and DINEPA (Direction Nationale de l'Eau Potable et de l'Assainissement/National Department of Water and Sanitation Management) - a government regulatory authority that works on Haiti's water and sanitation system - have been providing chlorine pool tester kits to facilitate the chlorination of wells and other main water outlets. Meanwhile, motorbike DINEPA teams, responsible for testing the quality of water at water trucking distribution points, have been dispatched across the metropolitan area. So far they've tested over 150 water points with more than half showing a need for further chlorination.
|© UNICEF Haiti/2010/Marco Dormino
|Hygiene promotion is key, here a child washes her hands during an educational activity at a refugee camp in Port au Prince.
In addition, UNICEF and DINEPA have ordered AQUATABS Water Purification Tablets to be distributed to 1,000 private water kiosks, 300 public fountains and 300 hand pump locations. All in all, 12 million AQUATABS are planned to be distributed each week until the end of the epidemic.
Hygiene promotion is also high on the agenda to help protect children and their families living in vulnerable and unsanitary zones. Along with the Ministry of Health, UNICEF and its partners have helped define key cholera messages; these are being used as part of cholera awareness and prevention campaigns which will be broadcast on radio and conducted in camps and other affected communities. UNICEF is currently in the process of training partners on cholera and general hygiene promotion.
Dealing with an outbreak
The health sector is also playing a vital role in this crisis, setting up different structures to help combat a possible outbreak. For anyone suffering from diarrhea, oral rehydration proximity stations will be providing care 24 hours a day. In addition, intermediary admittance centres will be operating within existing health structures or any other identified space, and cholera treatment centers will be available to those in need of hospitalization.
|© UNICEF Video
|Many of Haiti's slums and tent cities suffer from very poor sanitation.
Meanwhile, in Port-au-Prince's overcrowded and unsanitary camps, concern about the cholera epidemic has been growing fiercely, with people anxiously calling hotlines to find out more about hand washing and other preventative measures.
At present, five cases of cholera have been confirmed in Port-au-Prince. However, each case involved individuals who had traveled through the Artibonite valley and were therefore not indicative of a spread of the epidemic since they do not represent a new source location of infection.

In her March 16th article "Bus-safety legislation needed now in wake of recent crash fatalities," Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison (R-Texas) calls on Congress to pass a bill she co-sponsored with Sen. Sherrod BrownSherrod Campbell BrownScott Garrett poses real threat to EXIM Bank, small businesses Class warfare fight erupts over tax bills Senators Hatch, Brown have heated exchange on GOP tax plan MORE (D-Ohio), The Motorcoach Enhanced Safety Act. The American Bus Association agrees with Sen. Hutchison in her article that more can be done on motorcoach safety. The motorcoach industry has continually supported research and testing that leads to the development of the seat belt and enhanced window and roof strength standards as well as the addition of other safety features for motorcoaches.
We also have supported legislation that would ensure the rigorous review of new bus companies before they are allowed to operate, and an ongoing crackdown on "reincarnated" and illegal carriers.
Over the past decade, ABA has repeatedly voiced our support for more enforcement and new regulations for a safer motorcoach industry. We have sought new regulations related to driver training and medical certification, and we urged the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration to undertake the research necessary to determine how to better protect our passengers, which is currently under way.
We have been encouraged to see that the Department of Transportation has heeded our calls for more funding for enforcement as indicated by their FY 2012 budget request, and it is our hope that Congress agrees with the administration and takes the stance that highway safety and its enforcement activities, specifically those that are directed towards protecting passengers, just cannot be cut. We truly believe that through vigorous enforcement, the illegal and unfit operators will be removed from the roads, and that we as an industry will be safer.
From Peter J. Pantuso, president and CEO of the American Bus Association, Washington, D.C.
Williams not a credible source on NPR funding
In response to Juan Williams's March 21 column, "Now it's time to defund NPR": Juan Williams writes that as a journalist, he has been reluctant until now to endorse the defunding of NPR.
As a journalist, he should also refrain from quoting, without question or caveat, a misleadingly edited video that has been thoroughly proven to be a fraud. The video in question, a creation of habitual right-wing scam artist James O'Keefe III, purports to show NPR fundraising executives kowtowing to Muslim extremists, bashing Republicans and dismissing the importance of federal funding to NPR. But as an investigation by the conservative news site The Blaze discovered last week, the unedited video shows the executives are wary of their suspicious potential donors, criticize the Tea Party in the context of a quote from another person, and emphasize the importance of the small amount of federal funding that NPR receives.
Any honest discussion of NPR's federal funding should include the very small amount of funding in question (about $5 million a year), the way that money is used (to help local stations, often in rural areas, stay alive) and the false nature of O'Keefe's latest attack. Williams's willingness to conveniently ignore these facts is an important reminder of the critical importance of high-quality and balanced journalism — the very kind that NPR provides.
From Michael Keegan, president of People For the American Way, Washington, D.C.
Illegal immigration too costly for US taxpayers
A recent op-ed in The Hill, "Tough talk on immigration comes with huge credit card bill," from March 17 argues that immigration enforcement is expensive, but fails to mention the larger issue at hand: illegal immigration costs American taxpayers billions each year.
In fact, according to the Federation for American Immigration Reform, illegal immigration costs $113 billion annually. This amounts to $1,117 per household to pay for the healthcare, education, welfare and incarceration of illegal immigrants.
Illegal immigration drains states' budgets, too. The State of California is expected to have a $25 billion budget shortfall by June 2012. At the same time, illegal immigration costs the Golden State nearly $22 billion each year. If immigration laws were fully enforced, California's budget deficit would nearly be eliminated.
Pro-enforcement supporters believe it is wrong for Americans to bear these exorbitant costs. By reducing the flow of illegal immigrants into the U.S., we can reduce the financial burden on American taxpayers.
From Rep. Lamar Smith (R-Texas), chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, Washington, D.C.

"The wonderful care given to my 11yr old son at East Surrey Hospital"
About: East Surrey Hospital / Accident and emergency East Surrey Hospital Accident and emergency RH1 5RH East Surrey Hospital / General surgery East Surrey Hospital General surgery RH1 5RH East Surrey Hospital / Paediatrics East Surrey Hospital Paediatrics RH1 5RH
Posted by Mtravis (as ),
During a consultation at our GP surgery my 11 year old son was referred straight to East Surrey Hospital with suspected appendicitis. We were given a letter to take with us and told the GP would ring the hospital so they would be expecting us.
From the minute we arrived at the A&E Department I was overwhelmed by how professional and caring everyone was: from the receptionist that booked us in, to the nurse who did the initial assessment and the 3 members of the surgical team who each thoroughly examined my son. Everyone was gentle and kind; each introduced themselves clearly by name to both me and my son; they all explained what was happening in terms that we could both understand; they were gentle when taking blood and when he experienced pain in the arm where the catheter was inserted, they took his concerns seriously and did everything they could to ease the pain and keep him calm.
My son was kept in overnight for assessment and to ensure that his appendix would not burst, and if they did, he would obviously be in the right place. The staff on the ward were just as lovely, friendly, helpful and professional as the staff on A&E.
My only "complaint", if you can call it that, was the time it took to discharge us. The nurses seemed to be in the hands of a very slow, drawn out process, waiting for the doctor to finish his rounds and then "do his bit" on the computer. They kept apologising, they looked somewhat embarrassed that it was taking so long. We too were embarrassed, here we were with a child that was well enough to go home and yet still taking up a valuable bed in hospital. It took just over 4 hours to discharge my son from the time the doctor said he could leave to the time we had the paperwork in our hands. We offered to go and sit in the coffee shop in the end so someone who was genuinely ill could use the bed. If anyone on the administrative side reads this, please, please, please, look at this part of the process.
Response from Ian Mackenzie, Director of Information and Facilities, Surrey and Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust 3 years ago
Dear Mtravis
Many thanks for posting such positive comments about the treatment your son received here at East Surrey Hospital. I am very pleased that you found the clinical service to be so good. It was particularly good to read that everyone introduced themselves by name as we are having a real push on this at the moment as part of the #hellomaynameis.. campaign.
It is though disappointing to hear about the delay in discharge and I will pass your comments to the paediatric team and ask them for their comments on the delay you experienced.
Kind regards

Another unplanned pregnancy...

Hello folks. I am Courtney and am new to the board. I am pregnant with my second child and this was definitely an unplanned pregnancy. When I got pregnant with my daughter, she too was unplanned. My pregnancy with her was not the easiest. Lots of morning sickness and tons of depression afterwards. The first time we had sex after my daughter was born, I got pregnant again. It was too soon so my husband and I elected to have an abortion. We divorced about a year later doe to several issues in our relationship. I moved 1800 miles away and have since remarried a wonderful man. But two months after we started dating, I got pregnant again. We chose to have an abortion then as well. We had just gotten into a relationship and wanted to make sure we would work out before having kids. I immediately went on birth control after that and have been on it until July 13, when I got my last period. I already had an appointment for the doctor set for August 24, and would have to be without the pill until then. Well on July 27, my new husband and I got pregnant (again). This time we have decided to accept it and have the baby. He's thrilled really. I am nervous and scared.
I work 4 jobs to make ends meet and he works 2. I know I am going to have to quit one of them because I can't be working from 10AM to 11PM every night with a child. Thomas would be like a single parent if we did that. But even with that job gone, we are going to have to find the money to pay for day care=, which will run about $500 a month. Where in the heck are we going to get that kind of money with me having to quit one of my jobs?
Yes, I am nervous and afraid that I will get behind on bills and not be able to afford to pay my house payment and the other things too. I can only hope and pray that things will get easier over the next 9 months and we will somehow be able to afford this.

$4B sale of Dealertrack Technologies to Cox closes
Cox Enterprises Inc., an Atlanta-based conglomerate, on Thursday said it had closed on its $4 billion acquisition of Dealertrack Technologies Inc., one of Long Island's largest and fastest-growing software makers.
Cox, which also owns Kelley Blue Book, paid $63.25 per share in cash for the Lake Success company, which makes programs for auto dealers.
"This combination brings together some of the best people in the industry with strong common values," Dealertrack chairman and chief executive Mark O'Neil said in a statement issued by the two companies.
Earlier Thursday, Dealertrack closed on a deal to sell its platform of automotive inventory tracking software, Inventory+, to a California company for $55 million. The sale, to DealerSocket of San Clemente, California, was required to settle an antitrust suit and secure approval from the U.S. Justice Department for the Cox merger.
Cox's acquisition of Dealertrack continues a trend of Long Island losing its public companies. More than 30 local businesses with stock traded on major exchanges have either transferred their headquarters elsewhere, shut down or been acquired since 2007.
Dealertrack, founded in 2000 in Garden City, is among the biggest successes in the effort to attract and grow high-tech companies here.
The company has more than tripled its annual revenue, to $854.4 million, since 2010. Analysts predict 2015 sales will rise to more than $1.097 billion. And last fall, Dealertrack broke ground on a 233,000-square-foot headquarters in North Hills and agreed to add more than 350 jobs in exchange for more than $19 million in state and county tax breaks and grants.
Dealertrack has said the acquisition does not change the company's plans to move into the facility in 2017. Cox, meanwhile, has said there are no plans to reduce Dealertrack's workforce, which includes 4,400 people, with nearly 550 on Long Island.

Top 5 Mariah Tracks We Want To Hear Live In Her Elusive Chanteuse Concert
And here are the top 5.
A single from the "Butterfly" album, "Breakdown" is slow and sexy. Mariah visits her hiphop vein and creates a track that's soft and subtle. True, it's not as big as her other hits, but her tender play of quieter moments shines brightly in this track. In fact, David Browne from Entertainment Weekly praised the song, writing "for most of the album she keeps her notorious octave-climbing chops at bay. Showing some admirable restraint".
Dancey and disco-inspired, "Emotions" is that Mariah song that screams "pump up the volume"! Utilizing a sweet hook reminiscent of "Best of My Love" and "Got to Be Real", "Emotion" soars into pop music heaven without falter. Shying away from her power ballads, Mariah showcases that she can indeed still be effervescent in an up-tempo number. Truly, this song lives up to its status as a classic.
This monster track from 2002 is touted as one of the Diva's best! The New York Times even wrote, "This style is part of the reason why she has been able to turn a ballad into a summer smash. 'We Belong Together' doesn't have a guest rapper, or a hard-hitting beat, but Ms. Carey's tricky vocal lines give the song more propulsion than you'd expect, with tightly coiled counter-rhythms that tug against the beat." No wonder we are excited when she drops this live.
One of her many Grammy-nominated hits, "Always Be My Baby" shall forever remind us of summer. A song about young-love, "Always Be My Baby" shall forever be one of Mariah's catchiest songs. The "doowoop" intro is as memorable as it's music video. This swingy, kilig single has countless of couples claiming it as their song. Heck, even A.I. alum David Cook has his rendition. Imagine this sang live!
In a karaoke country like ours, "Hero" is probably sung in all videoke places from Ilocos to Iligan. Thus, showing us its timelessness and appeal. "Hero" is uplifting, golden and anthemic. It's probably played in millions of weddings, AVP tributes and even funerals. Who wouldn't? The soul-stirring nature of this song shows us how golden Mariah is. That's why we can't wait to hear this live.
How about you? What's that Mariah track you want to hear live? Better be hasty as tickets to show are almost sold out.
The Elusive Chanteuse Show starring Mariah Carey LIVE in Manila on October 28, 2014 at the Mall of Asia Arena. Tickets are available at all SM Tickets outlets nationwide and through online at www.smtickets.com. Call 470-2222 for ticket inquiries. Another Wilbros Live concert

SAN FRANCISCO (BCN) — Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi, San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee and other local officials stepped out of their offices and into the kitchen Wednesday morning in order to help prepare and serve Thanksgiving meals for the needy.
Pelosi volunteered Wednesday morning in the dining room at St. Anthony's, a San Francisco nonprofit that provides food, clothing medical care and other services to low-income residents.
Later on Wednesday, Lee will join San Francisco's acting police Chief Tony Chaplin and San Francisco fire Chief Joanne Hayes-While in a turkey carving event for St. Anthony's annual Thanksgiving meal, according to a St. Anthony's spokesman.
The nonprofit typically serves about 2,400 meals a day, and expects to provide roughly 3,500 people with a turnkey meal tomorrow between 10 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. in the dining room at 121 Golden Gate Ave.
Chaplin and Lee also donned aprons Wednesday morning in order to help the Salvation Army of San Francisco carve its birds for tomorrow's main event, according to the mayor's official Twitter account.
Lee and his wife, Anita, will also be on hand Thursday morning for the Glide Memorial Church Thanksgiving dinner preparations, along with Rev. Cecil Williams and hundreds of other volunteers, according to Glide officials.
The public is invited to enjoy a free meal from 10 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Thursday in Glide's dining room at 330 Ellis St.
Other organizations around the Bay Area will serve Thanksgiving dinner Wednesday, including San Francisco's Community Awareness Resource Entity (CARE), Santa Cruz's Operation Love Our Vets, the Bay Area Rescue Mission in Richmond and Oakland's Mount Zion Missionary Baptist Church.
"Homeless people are lonely people," said Rev. John M. Anderson, executive director of the Bay Area Rescue Mission. "People in need often feel ignored, so a bountiful meal served with words of kindness help the homeless to feel truly welcome."
Anderson began welcoming people to the Richmond Memorial Auditorium at 403 Civic Center Plaza at 11:15 a.m. Wednesday and expects to provide 10,000 Thanksgiving meals.
In Santa Cruz, needy veterans can gather Wednesday at noon in the Veterans Memorial Building at 846 Front St. to eat a traditional Thanksgiving meal and take another meal to go for their Thursday dinner, according to Lisa Tkoch, executive director of Operation Love Our Vets.
"I believe the most important thing we serve is dignity," Tkoch said in a statement.
CARE is hosting a Thanksgiving lunch Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. for roughly 300 Potrero Hill Neighborhood residents at 801 Arkansas St. in which San Francisco police officers will help serve meals.
And Oakland's Mount Zion Missionary Baptist Church will hold its annual turkey giveaway and community dinner Wednesday at noon at 1203 Willow St.

I was greatly disturbed by Gov. Roy Barnes' comments about the HOPE scholarship (''Ceremony Promotes Benefits of HOPE,'' Oct. 17). Barnes said, ''This is not about whether (students) learn Shakespeare a little better. This is about whether we train a better skilled worker. This is about economic development, in the final analysis.''
Do we as a society exist only for the good of the corporation? Does our educational system exist only to promote us economically? Oh, I hope not! Surely the HOPE scholarship and college, in general is not just about making good workers, but also about making good humans. What a tragedy it would be to find that we have degenerated into such a utilitarian society that we no longer recognize the value of the arts, literature, and humanities. What a travesty to find that education is no longer about expanding minds but only about expanding the work force.
Surely our students are more than money machines. They have intellects. They have hearts. They have souls. And Shakespeare will give them nourishment that money can't buy.
HOPE is about more than economic development, Governor Barnes, because education is about building a better, more balanced community, one person at a time.

We Are Vintage: Series I
We've decided to pair up and collaborate with one of our most appreciated knowledge sources when it comes to the automotive industry. Through this series, we aim to cover aspects of car influences in the region from rare exotics to classic modern vehicles to diplomatic characterised cars touching up on their transcendence from old times to today's favourites.
Bedford is an English manufactured time-capsule truck, which is rarely ever seen on the roads among our high-rise towers and six-lane speedways but rather seen hidden in a shed only for the owner's eyes to see. This metal originated from Vauxhall Motors, which later collaborated with General Motors in the early 1900s and made its way to the Arab soil circa 1950 with the rise of oil. Their use incorporated the transportation of oil in the region as well as use on homegrown farms.
The Land Rover Defender is the more common vintage vehicle spotted on roads today, ranging from the four-door vehicle to the two-door. In the old days, the grandfathers of the nation used this vehicle by the sea, on the farms and in the deserts. With a dash of vintage and a whole lot of rugged, the Defender is one of the most gruelling cars to drive in the last 60 years. It made its debut in World War 2 and has since been the true definition of a moving piece of stubborn metal. The stereotypical image of the usual beige machinery is a Bedouin man driving along a barely paved track with the smell of diesel trailing behind – and that is the epitome of the Defender circa 1980.
Many have seen this truck and it's enlarged sister at the Rainbow Sheikh's Museum from Jeremy Clarkson himself to the many motoring enthusiasts in the search for exceptional metal. The story behind the Dodge Powerwagon stems back to the early 1950s, originally imported by Aramco in Saudi Arabia and Bahrain, where they were used for oil transportation across the mighty dunes of the Arabian deserts. With the rise of economy in the region including the boom of Abu Dhabi within the oil industry circa 1970, the concept of driving a truck of this sort on the dirt roads of the Arabian Peninsula was common. If ever you were to question the ruler of the stream of American trucks, the Powerwagon falls under the title of superior, proving to be colossal, contributing to the vast development of trucks in today's day and age.
The vehicle that resides most in the hearts of everyone who has been here long enough is the Toyota FJ Truck, famous for being a workhorse in the Middle East. Farmers, fishermen, and the common locals have used this vehicle for many years, be it for delivery of goods among towns or the love for the metal. This particular vehicle is still evident on todays roads in many different forms be it the mechanic transporting parts across the industrial areas of Dubai or the fishermen reeling in their nets on the beaches of Fujeirah at the crack of dawn while campers slept, or your uncommon car collector restoring it beneath a shed in his backyard. As is evident, it has transcended into a cultural characterisation and stands out with its unbendable structure.
Land Rovers, FJs and American trucks still hold a very strong influence in the car culture in the UAE. We are surrounded by sand and for that we build our perfect form of transportation. From luxury trucks, loaders, towers, racers, and dune bashers, everyone loves trucks. They are the highest form of utility, always convenient, and loved.
