Cool offices: Greystar offices in Charleston, USA
LS3P has developed a new office design for real estate company Greystar located in Charleston, South Carolina.
This 6,500 SF corporate suite for a young, energetic, fast-growing business created a new headquarters in one of the first "skyscrapers" in historic Charleston, SC.
The client, a real estate company providing investment, development, construction, and property management services, required an open-office environment for its employees to capitalize on the "trading-floor" energy of the young staff.
The space, which occupies the 3rd and 4th floors of its 1910 building, offered opportunities to showcase both neoclassical details and contemporary interventions.
Preserving views of the historic neighborhood rooftops was a key design goal, and became the desired "parti" for interior space planning. The design puts a modern spin on the conventional configuration of private perimeter offices and open-plan interiors.
In this floor plan, open workspaces line the perimeter, with executive offices at the core. Sleek, steel-and-glass partitions stretch from the reclaimed heart-pine floor to the exposed ceiling, creating a sense of transparency and maximizing views.
The open-plan workstations, crafted of cypress wood in classic profiles, stay low to encourage collaboration and communication.

Woody Harrelson Reddit
February 7, 2012 by staff
Woody Harrelson Reddit, If he's not already, Woody Harrelson should be a little red-faced by now. Make that Reddit-faced. The 50-year-old thesp didn't do himself any favors when he agreed to join social news site Reddit's Ask Me Anything thread for a discussion that was supposed to be about anything.
Problem was, Harrelson's insistence on using the forum as a publicity vehicle for his new movie Rampart instead of spilling details about his personal life, which enraged Netizens who expected the latter.
While other celebrities such as Zach Braff, Aziz Ansari, and comic Louis C.K. have all participated in AMA chats with relative ease, the Natural Born Killer killed it in all the wrong ways.
When one user quizzed Woody about going vegan, he was somewhat accommodating, saying, "I did it for energy…and I have to say, it works."
But when he was asked about stealing a high schooler's virginity, that's when the chat really went awry.
"First off, its not true, and second off, I don't want to answer questions about that. Lets focus on the film, people," exclaimed the actor.
Guess he didn't get the memo explaining what Ask Me Anything is about!
When another user wondered if he had even heard of Reddit before, to his credit, Harrelson did acknowledge being a newbie.
"I know [Rampart director] Oren Moverman did an interview here. I did just learn about it, so I'm trying," he answered.
Unfortunately, he didn't try hard enough. Harrelson's admission failed to stem the flood of criticism he received after offering up 15 answers tailored mostly toward Rampart, so much so that he beat a hasty exit.

BAMBOO is no longer regarded as just panda food or something you stick in the garden - it's fast becoming the enlightened choice for eco-friendly kitchen cabinets that don't cost the earth, as it were.
Unlike oak, pine or maple, it's source renewable in just seven years.
And not only that its one of the most eco-friendly crops around and actually helps keep the environment clean.
For more than 4,000 years people have used bamboo in an astonishing variety of ways: paper, construction, food, weaponry, medicine and even as aphrodisiacs.
However, most bamboo consumption is confined to South East Asia and Central America, where the most economically valuable species flourish.
You can harvest and re-grow a bamboo crop 15 times over in the period it takes for an oak tree to reach maturity.
So families who balk at the idea of seeing slow-growing mahogany chopped down for their household needs, need not worry about bamboo.
Which is just as well because bamboo has an astonishing range of uses in modern homes.
From baskets and potholders, armchairs and flooring and even dog kennels are being made out of this versatile material.
Its natural good looks, warmth, strength and resistance to everyday knocks are other good reasons why it's ideal for kitchen cabinets.
The sleek Bamboo Bali range, available through Arlington International Agencies and stocked by the Cardiff Warehouse, Cardiff, has the contemporary edge.
Available in two shades, natural and tabac, it features solid doors and a host of natty storage ideas with easy on the eye convex and concave units.
With prices starting at £211 for a 600mm base unit, the Bamboo Bali comes with a five-year guar-Contact Mainstream on telephone 01707 662774 or www.arlington direct.co.uk The Cardiff Warehouse is located at Unit 4 Stadium Close, off Penarth Road, Cardiff. Tel: 02920 394545

It avoids insects entering greenhouses in order to attack crops, which is the cause of viruses proliferation, birth defects, damages, quantity and quality drop down, with the consequent downgrading of the final product yield. The product is packaged in size and made of polyethylene mono-thread (0.22 to 0.23), (PE-HD) UV resistant
high density polyethylene nets, woven in order to have a compact structure.
It is equipped with reinforced selvages on the sides and in the center, to ensure strength and durability in the spots where structural shocks are more sensible and stronger.
Treated with a stabilization process, which prevents matting caused by UV rays.
The remarkable consistency of the mesh protects from most invasive sunlight, but without hindering light passage. It is packaged in rolls and made of polyethylene mono-thread (PE-HD) UV resistant.

Are they doing it on purpose to confuse their affiliates?
Check all your reports and you'll see they don't match.
Have a look at "Quick Stats" on the front page (Just an example) for a period like this month.
Note your Sales and Commissions
Now, check your Advanced Reports, like Individual Items.
Note your Sales and Commissions.
The reports don't match.

Linkshare has always been confusing for me as well. If it weren't for a couple of advertisers I really liking working with (aka making good money) I wouldn't touch their platform.

it seems like the 'top 3 networks' have really dropped the ball this year. Maybe we see some real changes in affiliate marketing next year.
Networks like to sign up as many merchants as possible & fuggetaboutit. Maybe some opportunity for new, more specialized networks who don't try to do everything & everybody.

After several days, I still see these discrepancies so it's not a temporary glitch. Here we are during the busiest time of the shopping season and we can't trust their reports.
I understand their favorites affiliates, the BHOs don't care for the reports. They don't have to rely on reports to improve their business, they just have to look at what $ amount they were able to grab month after month.

Sullivan Co., TN (WJHL) — Investigators with the Sullivan County Sheriff's Office hopes someone recognizes a man caught on home surveillance video last week.
The SCSO released the video as part of its investigation into reports of theft in the Indian Springs area.
"Household surveillance cameras caught the man walking towards the front door of a house," a SCSO spokesperson said. "It appears he sees the camera turn on and then proceeds to run away. Two people are also standing nearby in the street."
Anyone who recognizes this man should contact the Sullivan County Sheriff's Office at (423) 279-7500 and ask for Captain Strickler. You can also email the tip to email@example.com .

If you are traveling out of state for a show, some states require health certificates. The best way to find out if a health certificate is required is to contact the show coordinator, and they will be able to give you more information. A health certificate is generally issued by a veterinarian who does a general check to see that the bird looks healthy. If you are bringing a lot of birds, for example 10 to 50 birds, make sure you let your vet know ahead of time how many you will be bringing. Also see if he or she offers a discount for multiple birds. For example, the avian vet I go to charges $15 to $20 for an unlimited number of birds. The health certificate will not show proof that a bird is not a carrier of a disease, but it will show that the vet saw no outward symptoms of illness or disease. I know that some people are scared that their birds will catch something if they take them to a show. My birds have never gotten sick from being at a show, and they've attended many shows. It's been my experience, even when a state requires a health certificate, there is no one at the show that collects them.
If you are traveling by plane, some planes require health certificates, and others do not. Some have limits of how many birds you can bring on a plane, while others allow an unlimited number of birds that can be shipped by cargo. Some airlines do not allow birds of any type. Before traveling or shipping birds, always do research into what the specific airline's requirements are, as each airline is different. Some require perches and food cups while others just require the seed to be on the bottom of the travel cage. With all the restrictions that airlines are placing on traveling with birds and the scare given by the media to avian diseases, it's even more important that we encourage people to come to shows, because soon there may be no shows left all to go to.

I'm Alex from Things That Sparkle and Alexandra Kaehler Design. I'm so excited that Ashley asked me to here today as part of this fantastic series. There are so many words of wisdom that my wonderful parents imparted on me as a child, but maybe the most valuable words, have been the ones I have taught myself.
In this blog world, filled with beautiful pictures, its hard to keep things in perspective. Someone is always skinnier, prettier, richer, or has a nicer house. There is always someone with more... So in this world (that is mostly amazing, with a little bit of nastiness) you must remind yourself
image by me
So whether you have a perfect little body, or an extra 15 pounds. A beautiful mcmansion or a tiny studio. Just be thankful for what you have and then you'll always be satisfied.

Success With Stories Strategy 2 Learn English With Repetition
Filed under: Fluent English
This is strategy number 2 for English fluency of Success With Stories listening course. In this post, you will find out how to understand English instantly and speak it automatically. You can also download mp3 audio and pdf text for this powerful lesson at the end of this post.
The first step in becoming fluent in English is to immerse yourself in the language. Simply put, you will want to listen to movies, songs, and podcasts, to name a few ideas, in English. Listening to the words you hear, you may realize that you can understand some of them, but not all of them. The second strategy to become fluent in English will help you here.
One of the best ways to learn a new language, in this case English, is to listen to words and phrases over and over again, repeating them until you understand them instantly.
You can learn English deeply by listening to as much recorded English as you can, over and over and over again. The first few times, a word or a phrase might not mean anything to you, but, as you listen to it and listen to it, you will begin to understand it, and it will make sense to you. Then you will be one step closer to English fluency.
Some of the hardest parts of the English language to learn are the slang expressions, the idioms and phrases that people use in their day to day conversation. Expressions such as "What's up?" don't necessarily literally mean what they sound like they mean. "What's up?" for example, means how are you?, or what's new with you? By hearing this phrase again and again, you will begin to understand it and its meaning.
Since listening to the same phrases all the time can get boring, you should space them out throughout the day, listening to them in the morning, the afternoon, and the evening. Listen to different words throughout the week. This will not only help you to avoid boredom, but will also help you to learn the words better and recall more of them.
By listening to English words over and over, you will learn that it is possible to learn English with repetition. Once the words have become familiar to you, you will be able to understand and speak them correctly. Now click below link to download your free mp3+pdf lesson to listen with repetition.

Deep English Tip 6: Variety And Repeating Are Important
Filed under: Deep English Course
This is Day Six of your Seven days Deep English lessons. We now have one more download pack for you now. It has today's Fluency increaser speaking audio, and also a PDF support file. Ensure you listen and look the today's tutorial listed below Just before you perform the Fluency increaser from the download package.
Welcome back to Day 6 of our own tutorials. Just what did you think about the particular Aron Ralston's Active Listening story? Very crazy right? If you haven't listened to that yet, download it while using the link in the bottom of the webpage. Right now you'll be getting an additional Fluency increaser English Speaking lesson.
If you wish to hear the remainder of the story and more listening and speaking stories, have a look at our own True Stories Listening and Speaking Group.
Right now, we want to mention repetition. It isn't pretty, it isn't fascinating, however it is vital. Any time you're learning something, repeating is vital.
We realize what you're considering, repetition will be boring. Learning needs to be exciting. If you aren't interested you won't proceed. If you aren't having a great time, you're going to give up.
That's totally right. You must keep things fascinating. First of all, you must find content which you feel is fascinating, meaningful as well as allows you to think.
Second, you need to repeat this and re-experience this differently. Plenty of you possibly have used flash cards to examine vocabulary. Vocabulary cards will give you results, however performing the same thing becomes boring right? You 'must' have meaningful repetition. And also the repetition requires enough variety to keep it fascinating. You should be experiencing and also re-experiencing diversely otherwise you won't continue on.
This can be part of the philosophy guiding the Deep English approach. In the True Stories Listening and Speaking Series we offer you 8 forms of lessons.
- Active Listening
- Active Listening Slow Speed
- Active Speaking
- Fluency increaser
- Looking Forward Looking Back: Future
- Looking Forward Looking Back: Present Continuous
- Looking Forward Looking Back: Past Continuous
- Looking Forward Looking Back: Present Perfect
They're eight different ways so that you can experience and re-experience the information. This sort of repetition was created to keep altering to enable you to deeply experience the language without losing interest.
The other day we mentioned employing your imagination. Closing your eyes along with imagining just how things seem and how things sense can be section of our own learning philosophy. This offers you an additional way to go through the information. The storyline is the similar but we wish that you re-experience it through a psychological and visual stage.
In the Fluency Booster stories, we all have you re-experience the storyline simply by responding to questions.
Yet another thing that you can do to obtain additional repeating is usually to stop the recording and repeat the questions before you'll supply the answer. This type of targeted repeating can also be excellent with all the Active Listening lessons.
Typically we ask you to relax while focusing for the meaning of the stories. Right now try something different. Forget about the meaning and concentrate about the sound of the language. Language is a lot like music; it comes with a tempo and melody. Stop the recording any time you like and attempt to repeat the final sentence you listen to. Replicate the particular rhythm and also music.
Provide this kind of listen and repeat approach a try but don't overdo it. The most critical thing is to enjoy it and maintain it fascinating. If you're sick and tired of doing the Active Speaking, listen to the Active Listening once more. If you're sick and tired of the Active Listening, try stopping the recording and doing a bit of listen and repeat. If you're tired of the particular listen and repeat approach, get back to the Active Listening and simply close your eyes and imagine. There are numerous solutions to work with the Deep English system. The main element is to make it fascinating and have a great time.
Get pleasure from today's Active English Speaking story and look with us another day to get more assistance with the way to increase your English.
If you've been taking pleasure in this series as well as the free audio trial samples, look at our True Stories Listening and Speaking Series to have 4 months of listening and speaking materials.

Filed under: Power English
Did you learn English with your eyes? Probably. In school you probably learned mostly with your eyes. You red textbook, you studied word lists, you studied grammar rules. That's why you read well, but can not speak well.
For example, you can easily understand written English. Such as hi, how are you? What have you been doing lately? But you do not easily understand real English speaking. Such as, hey man, how is it going? What's you've been up to? To speak well, you must learn with your ears. You must learn by listening. If you learned by your ears, you would easily understand the second example.
This is what children do. Children learn English by listening. They listen to their parents, and then a few months later, they began to speak. With Effortless English you learn like a child. You learn English with your ears. All of our lessons are listening lessons. No textbooks. Children are the best English learners. To speak excellent English you must learn like a child. You must learn with your ears.

Rhinolite DIY: Painting rhinolite, prevent paint on rhinolite from peeling off and removing rhinolite
Q: I just purchased Vevaglo Satin Sheen (white) which was tinted / shaded to a slightly darker colour. This paint was painted on a primer. Will this paint peel off from my new rhinolite kitchen walls?
If Plascon Plaster Primer was used on the rhinolite walls then the paint will not peel off.
Q: I have installed a new ceiling in my master bedroom after converting my single bathroom into two separate bathrooms. The master bedroom and bathroom are open plan so the ceiling is continuous through both areas.
The ceiling was finished with fibre tape and rhinolite. The ceiling was given two coats of Plascon Universal Undercoat. I would like to know whether I can paint the fibre tape and rhinolite ceiling with two coats of Plascon Velvaglo for excellent mould protection and then apply 2-3 coats of Plascon Kitchens and Bathrooms as a final coat?
Certainly! Here's what you need to do: Give the Universal Undercoat 16 hours to dry then apply two coats of Plascon Kitchens & Bathrooms – allowing 2 hours drying time between coats. Plascon Kitchens & Bathrooms is also mould and fungus resistant and is 10 times more washable than conventional water-based paint. It is stain, steam, chip and scratch resistant and comes with a 7 year quality guarantee!
Q: How do I remove multi-layers of paint and rhinolite from my walls other than by using only a paint scraper?
To remove paint we have RemovALL All Purpose Paint Remover Brush / Gel Grade. Note that it is always advisable to conduct a small test patch in an inconspicuous area to ensure product performance. This will indicate the time required for project completion, suitability of product for paint and substrate, and most effective removal method.
Please note that one needs to contact the manufactures of rhinolite and confirm with them what product is best suitable for removing rhinolite.

May 16, 2005 - Take Two today announced the official showcase titles from 2K Games and 2K Sports for this year's Electronic Entertainment Expo.
The Big E3 List: 2005 Edition
April 11, 2005 - In preparation for the show and to let you know that we care (and we really do... the flowers are on the way, we promise), we've put together a fat list of all the "official" titles being shown at E3 in Los Angeles from May 12-14. BUT WAIT! Before you write in with such enlightening observations as "u f3rg0t triPl3 so=0p3r sup3r bLu3 p0k3m0N!11!!!!1!!1!," you should realize that this list doesn't necessarily represent everything that a particular company will be showing at E3, just what they've confirmed that they'll be showing so far. There are sure to be plenty of surprise titles on the floor that publishers aren't ready to make public until closer to the opening of the show. Luckily we'll be updating this list every single day with any new confirmed titles that we learn of, so all you'll have to do is check back here for the most up-to-date list of E3 titles. Those of you who are camping out by your computers can print out this list and highlight the games you're excited about and wait until May to read the latest as we poke, prod, and gussie-up to every damn game we can get our hands on at the show. Or just order a few dozen pizzas and read everything we post at E3. Lord knows we won't have time to! Remember that this is just a small sample of the games that will be at the show. Make sure to check this page regularly, because we'll be updating the list as we get more confirmations of titles that we'll be seeing at E3.

Former Edmonton Oilers coach Ralph Krueger has been named chairman of Southampton F.C. of the the English Premier League, according to an announcement Wednesday from the team.
The 51-year-old Krueger said in a statement that he is honored to accept the role:
"We will build on that soul by creating platforms of open communication both inside with the staff and outside with our fan base. Although there is a solid foundation in place, the Club still has tremendous untapped commercial potential. We will continue to nurture 'The Southampton Way' by reaching for consistent growth in all departments to ultimately build a culture that allows Southampton to remain healthy and sustainable in the future."
The club's owner, Katharina Liebherr, pointed to Krueger's "background in major league sport at all levels." Krueger, who had previously served as a top aide to Liebherr, had spent 13 years as head coach of the Swiss national hockey team, coached the Oilers for a year in 2012 and just returned from Team Canada's gold medal performance in the Sochi Olympics:
"Ralph has an impressive background in major league sport at all levels, it is his experience as an expert in leadership, motivation and team-building that makes him ideally suited for this important position in the Saints organisation. He has been a leading advisor and coach to senior management in large international corporations for the past 20 years."SI WIRE: Klinsmann encouraged by Dempsey's status, play with World Cup on horizon

Discussion in 'Android Devices' started by nancyh1990, Jun 9, 2010.
I have google docs as part of my Gmail. How do I view these on the evo? Thanks
^yep, that's pretty much it
I had hope that I could access this straight from the Gmail account without going through the browser.
Yea, I'm pretty surprised that there's no "google docs lite" available on Android phones...or hell, even with Froyo. I know it's browser intensive, but you'd think that they could cobble together something. Even if you have to download it to the phone, make edits, and upload it again. Hopefully an app, or Gingerbread, will bring this support. It's pretty surprising that it's not there considering how big pimpin' google is on cloud computing (yack, I hate that phrase).
Gdocs App works great

text: Freight rates in the Atlantic Panamax sector held steady on Wednesday amid signs that recent rises may be stalling, brokers said. "The Atlantic is holding up well, but the question is not whether the Panamax market will rally further, but when the Atlantic will come off," one said. Until then, Atlantic and Pacific Panamax rates were expected to remain steady. Signs that the market was reaching its pinnacle were heralded by the Baltic Panamax Index (BPI) on Monday, when rises in both the Atlantic and Pacific were noticeably smaller. The trend persisted on Tuesday, and by Wednesday the BPI rose just two points to 1,436. Freight rates remained high enough, however, to encourage charterers to continue with timecharter deals. A grain house has taken the 1990 built 69,637 dwt Torm Marina for an east coast of South America round voyage. Redelivery is scheduled for the Skaw-Passero range and the rate of the charter is said to be a steady $11,000 daily. Cargill is reported to have chartered the 1998 built 71,671 dwt Giant Pescadores for early-July Aden delivery and two to three laden legs at a rate of $10,100 daily. The 1986 built 70,653 dwt Alexandraki has been chartered for a trip to Brazil and Iran, with redelivery agreed as passing Muscat outwards at a rate of $11,100 daily. - (Reuters)

Begovic reiterates innocence
Asmir Begovic has continued his war of words with Tony Pulis for making a 'disgraceful accusation' against him.
By Jamie Casey
Last Updated: 30/08/10 6:33pm
Stoke goalkeeper Asmir Begovic has continued his war of words with manager Tony Pulis for making a 'disgraceful accusation' against him.
Potters boss Pulis believes his second-choice keeper refused to play in their Carling Cup tie against Shrewsbury last week after learning of a bid from Chelsea.
Begovic has since defended himself and has the backing of the Professional Footballers' Association [PFA], who judged the player to have made himself available if necessary.
The Bosnian stopper admitted he was not in an ideal frame of mind to face the Shrews, who went down 2-1 on the night, but claims at no point did he ever refuse to do his job.
Former Portsmouth keeper Begovic, 23, was disappointed the matter became public and maintains his innocence as his Stoke days look numbered after just seven months.
"I never refused to play," he reiterated. "I'd never do such a thing to turn down a chance to play a first-team game. I was aware that there was a bid made and he [Pulis] said it was being considered.
"We spoke about it, it was a private conversation and for it to get out publicly was a little bit disappointing.
"I tried to see him before the team meeting but he refused to see me and then he named the team," added Begovic, who has since had a bid from Chelsea turned down.
"We spoke about the situation and as far as he was concerned he understood the position I was in and he didn't have any problems with me not playing at the time and I thought that was the end of the story but I would never go on strike.
"That's an absolutely disgraceful accusation for people to make."

Mrs Redneck and I took another day trip in August, this time to Chartres. Now, there's a big difference between Fontainebleau and Chartres. In Fontainebleau, the only reason to go there is to visit the chateau; in Chartres, the main reason to go there is to see the amazing cathedral, but quite honestly, if you're looking for a picture-postcard-gorgeous little French town? Chartres is your place. You can actually see the cathedral when you walk out of the train station (so it's not like you have any issues with finding the damn thing, unlike certain other places - yeah, Fontainebleau, I'm looking at you), there is a lovely little Beaux Arts museum, all the streets around the cathedral are so frickin' picturesque it nearly hurts, and there is a sweet little trolley that will take you all around the town in case you missed anything walking around. In other words - highly recommended. And if you do go to check it out, make sure you take one of Malcolm Miller's tours of the cathedral - he has been studying the place for 50-odd years and whenever he does a tour, he just talks about whatever the hell he wants to focus on that particular day. Hee! You just get what you're given and it's awesome.
|View from train station - no risk of getting lost in Chartres
|Dude, this is a friendly town - just look at the garbage cans...
|Chartres cathedral - spectacular stained glass
|Chartres cathedral - general awesomeness - interior
|Chartres cathedral - general awesomeness - exterior
|Chartres cathedral - more stunning stained glass
|Chartres cathedral - exterior
|Chartres cathedral - back is just as impressive as front
|The salmon house
|Just some random café but so damn charming
|The adorable little trolley that will take you through the back streets
|Whole town is like a postcard
|Don't get confused, this isn't even the cathedral people come to see
|So frickin' adorable

In the Philippines, they were advancing towards the Bataan peninsula. In Malaya, Lieutenant-General Tomoyuki Yamashita's troops crossed the River Slim on 7 January 1942 and were advancing, with armoured support, towards Kuala Lumpur. On 10 January, Japanese forces staged a landing on the (oil-rich) island of Tarakan in Borneo; American general Douglas MacArthur inspected Bataan's defences; and the British finally abandoned Kuala Lumpur. The Japanese moved into the city almost immediately.During this period, General Archibald Wavell arrived in Singapore to take charge of British defences and, in Washington D.C., President Roosevelt proposed to Congress a target of 125,000 planes and 8 million tons of shipping to be built within the next two years.

Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.

A really lovely product for the delicate eye area
We expect 'miracles' because we are promised 'miracles', but realistically this product is as good as any I have tried. I wanted something that didn't feel sticky or stiff around my eye area, and this is it; something that felt nourishing, but not oily, and this is it. It's cruelty free and harsh chemical free and that's more important to me than paying top dollar for something that 'promises', but really doesn't work any better than this product. I love it and have ordered it for my sister.

I've been using this for a few weeks now. It is a good product, but I'm not sure that I really need it. I use other products in this line that I prefer. Still a good product, but not for me.
It's okay.

Rabies vaccinations won't be mandatory for domestic cats in Mountain View under an updated animal ordinance.
The city council struck down the controversial provision 6-0 Tuesday night. Council members pointed to a lack of evidence that rabies is rampant among felines in Santa Clara County.
"I think it's a problem we don't need to solve," said Council Member Jac Siegel, adding that he had consulted with a doctor friend who said he had never seen a case in Mountain View where a person contracted the disease from a cat.
The provision was proposed as part of an update to the city's animal ordinance, which hasn't undergone a wholesale revision since 1972. The city council initially considered the vaccination requirement among other changes in June, but asked city staff to do more research in the face of public outcry.
The state requires dog owners to vaccinate their animals against rabies once they turn 4 months old, but vaccinations are only "strongly encouraged" for cats and horses that are outdoors, according to a city staff report.
The city conducted an online survey between Aug. 12 and Sept. 4 to gauge opinions about vaccinating cats against rabies. Of the 769 people who answered the question of whether outdoor cats should be vaccinated, 45 percent said yes, 30 percent said no and the rest said they did not know. And of the 770 people who answered the question of whether indoor cats should be vaccinated, 60 percent said no, 23 percent said yes and the rest said they did not know.
Meanwhile, all 28 attendees of an Aug. 29 community meeting indicated by a show of hands that they were against the idea of making rabies vaccinations mandatory for cats, regardless of whether they were indoor or outdoor, according to the report.
Several members of the public appeared at the council meeting Tuesday to drive home their opposition to the provision.
"The part about the cats really took me by surprise, especially because this ordinance hasn't been updated since 1972," said Old Mountain View neighborhood resident James Neal. "And as far as I know, between 1972 and now, there haven't been roving bands of cats running around attacking people, getting into trouble and causing problems in the community."
Denise Pinto and Suzette Spencer said rabies vaccinations can actually pose a health risk to cats.
"A lot of veterinarians don't agree with it," Pinto said.
"For most cats in Mountain View, there is a zero risk of getting rabies, but every cat that is vaccinated unnecessarily has a chance of getting sick," said Spencer, who pointed to a 2006 study that acknowledged adverse reactions largely go unreported.
Mayor John Inks supported the removal of the provision but he expressed frustration that so much time and effort had been expended on updating the animal ordinance. To him, requiring cats to be vaccinated against rabies and other changes were not addressing "significant problems."
"I'm still asking the same question," Inks said, "what are we solving here?"

Oklahoma's interior offensive line could be among the deepest groups Bob Stoops has had in his tenure in Norman, Okla.
Returning starters Ben Habern and Gabe Ikard, two former All-Big 12 selections, have each played guard and center during their careers. And multi-year starter at guard Tyler Evans was solid alongside that duo in 2011.
Yet multiple young interior offensive linemen are making their mark this spring. Adam Shead, who was outstanding in limited duty as a redshirt freshman, has been solid.
"I think he's the most improved along the offensive line," Evans said.
With Habern missing the spring with a neck injury, redshirt freshman Nila Kasitati has spent some time at center and he's making an impression.
"Nila is looking pretty good at center," Evans said. "I think he's found himself a home."

Unless you've been lugging around chunks of turf in your backpack, odds are you don't often get the chance to carry a part of Ohio Stadium with you. We're incredibly proud to change that with this keychain, reclaimed from the original redwood bleachers that stood in the Horseshoe from 1922-2000. You're certain to grow jealous of your keys—after all, think how close they'll be to the bleachers that saw six national titles, Woody, Archie, and more Script Ohios than we can even count. Pay homage.

This article forms part of my Leadership Styles Blog Series and focuses on Bureaucratic leadership. Bureaucratic leaders apply great attention to detail and help to bring control and clarity to situations. This can be of great benefit to the organisation or team as it ensures quality standards are met and the welfare of the team is maintained.
This style of leadership is very similar to management rather than leadership as it focuses on the control and performance or work. The key difference is that bureaucratic leadership is also concerned with the people doing the work as well as the work itself. Put in another way, the work that is achieved is a result of the leadership of the people doing it.
Bureaucratic leaders follow rules and regulations and are therefore less creative and innovative in their approach to leadership. They have a job specification to follow and they deliver on it. For some highly regulated industries with exposure to risk this style of leadership is crucial for success. They lead by the book and do not stray from their chosen path meaning spontaneity and flexibility can be counter-productive to a bureaucratic leader.
Key Strengths
Through consistent routine, bureaucratic leadership ensures all staff know their roles and responsibility and are highly focused on the task at hand. This can lead to great success in task-focused work situations. Attention to detail and accountability can be very useful for an organisation, particularly if health and safety, staff welfare and precise product specifications are a priority.
When change is implemented the new processes and procedures will have been tested and checked to ensure risk of failure is minimised and the chance of success is increased. This precautionary approach to change can be very important in ensuring long-term success as well as minimising short-term issues and associated declines in performance.
Key Criticisms
One of the biggest criticisms of this style of leadership is that it does not encourage innovative and creative thinking. This can be a huge limitation for the leader as it can prevent progress and adaption. Staff clarity around roles and responsibilities is good however it can cause such clear divides between staff that they will be less likely to work beyond their predetermined boundaries. This means less thinking outside the box and less collaboration with colleagues.
Staff development is inhibited when working under this style of management. The majority of work conducted is prescribed and instructional in nature meaning staff are not exposed to problem solving and higher-order thinking. This will limit staff potential for progression within their existing job roles.
Finally, bureaucratic leadership is typically outcome focused. While this is not necessarily a bad thing it can sometimes result in a lack of focus on the individuals and teams that are doing the work.
Final Thoughts…
There is always a case for bureaucratic leadership in every organisation. Leaders need to provide clear direction to their staff and it is essential they meet the needs of regulatory and legal bodies. However, it is important that leaders use this style of leadership sparingly as being overly bureaucratic can inhibit staff innovation and creative thinking. This can result in de-motivated and unenthused staff members which is the complete opposite to what leadership aims to achieve.
As with every leadership style discussed in this blog series it is a case of knowing when and where to use each style to maximise its impact. I hope this article has been valuable and I encourage you to join me tomorrow where we will be discussing Laissez Faire Leadership in the next part of this Leadership Styles Blog Series.

Had a membership card to the Club on 39. I remember having many very nice dinners there. However, I still think that the best dinners were served in the VIP Room at the old Playboy Club.

I worked for United Insurance way back in 1974 to 1982. This was my first office job. Through job postings I was able to work my way from Issue Clerk to Employee Benefits to Programmer/Analyst. United was a family oriented company before being bought out by Teledyne and a fun place to work. I remember fun evenings at the Little Corporal (where I met my husband), and lunches at the little Italian restaurant Giovanetti's. My sisters also worked for United. My husband worked next door at 35 E Wacker at Kaiser Engineers. I'm so sorry to see United gone.
Maryann Bowcock - Tuesday, August 18th, 2015 @ 2:21pm
I worked at United Insurance Co.in 1982. Being from a small country town this building was hugh and beautiful to me. My friends and I worked hard then enjoyed happy hour at Little Corporal. Lots of great memories. I often tell my children and Grandchildren about working on the 37th floor and another floor, all the wonderful people I met. Haven't been there since 1984, would love to see it again.
Joyce Ellis - Saturday, July 11th, 2015 @ 3:33pm
I worked on the 19th floor of the building. I was a Actuarial Clerk for United Insurance Company of America back in 1977-1979. Fond memories of the people in the department, and lunches at Little Corporal Restaurant. Sometimes, lunch time shopping trips to Marshall Fields and Chas. A. Stevens clothing store. One morning, before entering the building off of State Street, I hiked up my purse shoulder strap and was a bit too close to the building. Hit the corner of the marble just right and put a nasty gash on the outside of my right hand right at one of the veins visible. A gentlemen from the company wrapped my hand in his hankerchief and escorted me to the company nurse. I have a small scar on my hand and did buy the guy a package of new hankerchiefs to replace the really bloody one he wrapped me in.

I made comments a while ago, and now, with the passage of time, I have grown to appreciate this structure even more. It does remind me of the Aon building, but also as a smaller image of the Twin Towers in NYC. Again, a rare skyscraper constructed from marble, not a material usually associated with buildings of this size or use. I have come to admire it even more in light of some of the atrocious spectacles they now choose to call skyscrapers, And yet again, many very fond memories of years past with my mom, times I spent there as a child, what a wonderful and unusual experience I had, and never realized how wonderful it was to be there, in the Crown Room and Club on 39.
MIlka Stanojevich - Wednesday, November 28th, 2012 @ 4:05pm
I worked for United Ins Co Of America for 40 years and attended many meetings in this building with lunch in Club 39. It was always apleasant experience . We were booked into the Executive House hotel and would have breakfast in the Little Corporal.restuarant.This was before Walter Lenhard sold the company to Teledyne
william taylor - Sunday, November 11th, 2012 @ 7:58pm
A sort of stylistic precursor of the Aon Building, it shares the later, larger structure's virtues or vices, depending on how you want to look at it: great purity of concept, or a stultifying over-use of symmetry. I lean toward the latter view
Alan Follett - Tuesday, August 28th, 2012 @ 9:26am
My father Elbert "Red" Farris worked at United for many years. Fond memories of going down to the United Building to watch parades, and go to the Little Corporal next to it. Still one of the most elegant and grand structures in Chicago. Will always be the United Of America Building to me...
Tom Farris - Thursday, September 1st, 2011 @ 11:43am
I remember too. My father was a VP at United ins. co and had a corner office up on 30 something floor... He used to be in Baltimore, but when the company built the marble bldg in 1962 it demanded all top admin people to move to Chicago area to fill it up, therefore dad moved to Winetca and my baby brother went to New Trier H S
Jay B. Keene - Friday, December 10th, 2010 @ 1:13pm
This skyscraper is unique in that it is made out of marble, and remains one of the only buildings in Chicago that has this feature. I spent many an hour in the building while I was growing up since my mother worked there for twenty-five years, and I have fond memories of this special building. There used to be The Little Corporal Restaurant next to it, and the The Club on 39 as well,. Whenever I see this building, which will always be The United Insurance building to me, I think of those days and my mom.
Milka Stanojevich - Tuesday, November 9th, 2010 @ 12:59pm

TOYOTA is recalling nearly 31,000 UK-registered cars because of a computer problem that could cause the vehicle to stop.
The recall affects the hybrid Prius model and involves 30,970 of the UK-registered ones manufactured between March 2009 and February 2014.
The company, which has had a number of recalls in recent years, some involving the Prius, said there had been 11 incidents in Europe of the computer problem but there had been no accidents or injuries.
Loading article content
It said the latest incident involved a possible issue with the software.
The firm said: "Toyota has identified that the software setting could lead to higher thermal stress occurring in certain insulated-gate bipolar transistors in the boost converter which may lead to them deforming or being damaged. Should this happen, warning lights may be illuminated and the car is likely to switch to 'failsafe' operation.
"It can still be driven, but with reduced power. In limited cases, the hybrid system may shut down, causing the vehicle to stop."

Ad of the Week: Innocent, Chain of Good
Innocent has launched a new series of ads to emphasise the charitable work that the company does. Created by 101, the campaign is our first Ad of the Week of 2014.
Innocent has launched a new series of ads to emphasise the charitable work it does. Created by 101, the campaign is our first Ad of the Week of 2014.
The ads celebrate the 'chain of good' that begins when you purchase one of Innocent's fruity beverages. The first of two TV spots is shown above, and tells the story of a family in Uganda that was helped directly by Innocent's long-term partnership with international development agency Send A Cow. It was directed by Max Joseph, and despite its worthy subject matter avoids earnestness, instead adopting a witty tone to tell the story of the brand's good work.
Chain of Good was written and created by 101's Erik Hedman and Ryan Delehanty, with creative direction from Richard Flintham. Flintham has had a long relationship with Innocent, working with the brand on and off for almost two decades. He was part of the team responsible for developing the brand's distinctive, and much copied, tone of voice. In this work, the intention is to offer a broader picture of the brand to consumers, and according to Flintham, to introduce "a more purposeful and slightly less cutesy voice".
"They do so many good things, and they're culture is so good, that previously when I've worked on it, it's always been difficult to condense all of that into a little marketing moment," he continues. "That was basically our pitch – there's so many great things that they do and it's all joined up…. I know talking about the good they do isn't something they've done a lot before, but they've given away so many millions to charity and helped so many projects. You don't have to make it up, which is great."
Max Joseph was part of 101's offering from pitch stage. "I'd been looking at that Baldessari film of Max Joseph's for goodness knows how long and sharing it with anybody I came across," says Flintham. "When we started doing this I was thinking about that, and also obviously the Follow The Frog thing that he did."
The process of working on the campaign was unusual, with 101 working in close collaboration with Joseph, his production company Hungry Man, and Innocent's in-house creative team from the start. Alongside two TV spots, the campaign includes outdoor, digital and experiential activity, and the intention is to continue the 'Chain of Good' branding into future campaigns.
"The theory is that the chain of good doesn't necessarily just have to apply to good deeds, it can apply to good taste," says Flintham. "It doesn't necessarily have to finish with an ethical thought; the idea that drinking that does this to your tummy is its own little chain."

Kathy MPosted on 08/05/2015
Lovely. That's the word I would use to describe this couch. It's simply lovely. Today's furniture design tends to miss out on the details, but I find that this couch harks back to a different time. The nailhead accents, the rolled arms, and just the shape of the sofa itself are all so tasteful. I knew the minute I landed on this page, I had found the right piece. I ordered it that day and it has served me well ever since. That was only a few months back, but it seems very well made and I don't envision any foreseeable problems.

text: This weekend is Tater Days in Benton, it is a fair type of event. Many different kinds of vendors set up booths, fair food (you know that deep fried give you a heart-attack food, but taste sooooo good), and rides. What is unique about it is all the rebel flags you see out, can't say I have ever witnessed that anywhere. It was entertaining, I could sit and watch people all day if I had the time. That is what Aidan did while he got to ride around in his stroller. Thoughts running through my head, oh my where is your mom, I would never let my child dress that way, wow people respect please. Anyhow it was really a lot of fun, we enjoyed walking around looking, eating the food, Abigail played a game and she got to drive daddy around in a purple car! I should have taken some pics of the people and flags I saw but I didn't want to offend anyone. Monday we will try and go to the Tater Days parade and maybe I will get some more pics to share.
