countertop material
yshiauNovember 16, 2013
Hi, I recently bought an apartment and I can't figure out what countertop material I have in the kitchen. I think it's some kind of man made material but not sure. It's black/charcoal grey with some light specks throughout. Underneath, it feels a bit rough but not sharp. It's not shiny either. Any clues?

During our stay my wife needed medical attention. We spoke to anne wang
and we cannot praise her highly enough as far as the attention she gave
us. We were also assisted by eric lee, who took my wife to the hospital
and did all he possibly could to help us. Both of these people need
recognition for the exceptional way they deal with the guests. We
stayed at a number of hotels during this trip but the jingling hotel
stands out in our memory as one of the best hotels we stayed at due to

Great location next to lake and metro station. Staff friendly. Rooms were good. Couldn't access WIFI from phone for some reason so used travel router. Revolving restuarant nice. Breakfast was fine, never worth the money in any hotel but food was good. Would recommend on location alone but everything else was perfectly good - Anonymous
proximity to metro, decent pool, staff speaks good English - Anonymous
Location of hotel is pretty good. Confucius Temple area is 10 minutes by walk. Zhong Hua Men is 15 minutes walk. Huge shopping mall Aqua City is 5 minute walk. Metro station is 10 minutes walk. To choose that hotel is excellent value for money. Hotel seemed to be renovated recently. All room stuff including bed covering, towels etc was new and we've spent here pleasant time. And last but not least front desk stuff were excellent!!!! - Anonymous

location is excellent if you need to visit the exhibition center. - Anonymous

Calif. vol. firefighter receive Lifetime Achievement Award
Ramona Sentinel
MOUNT LAGUNA, Calif. — Susan Raimond, assistant chief for the Mount Laguna Volunteer Fire Department, has received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the San Diego Regional Fire Foundation for 26 years of service to her community.
Raimond, 58, was among 20 volunteer firefighters honored by the foundation Thursday. Of those honored, a dozen firefighters, including Raimond, serve under the San Diego County Fire Authority, which provides support to 15 rural fire agencies, including 12 volunteer stations, and extends round-the-clock protection to 1.5 million acres in the unincorporated county.
In accepting her award, Raimond told the group that her concern for her own family, especially her daughter, is what led her toward firefighting in 1986. She wanted to know what to do in a medical emergency, especially since her family lives in a rural community.

CRM software shouldn't be expected to boost revenue or fix sales, but instead can be an ideal complement to an already existing great sales engine.
Recently I attended a presentation by Dave Mattson, chief executive of Sandler Training, one of the leading sales consulting companies. He explained that the biggest reason CRM implementations fail is that companies often buy CRM for the wrong reason.
Instead of buying a CRM software to complement an already good sales and marketing process, Mattson explained that many companies purchase CRM solutions, expecting the CRM solution itself to help boost their revenues or fix sales in some way.
CRM solutions are ideal for companies who already have a great sales engine and simply need a "tool" to layer on top of a sales process to enable better communication with customers, prospects, and sales managers and have insight into sales metrics.
Companies who do not have properly trained sales (or marketing) staff, a disciplined sales process, content to educate customers, and other elements of good marketing and sales best practices are not ready for a CRM solution.
In order to ensure CRM works for your business, it's important to first understand your sales process and how you will use the CRM tool as part of that process.
For example, while tracking sales results is good (it's a must), Mattson advocates that it's better to track specific activity that leads to generating more sales. For example, how many new prospects were communicated with that week? How many existing customers were called? These are behaviors that you can measure and control that all affect your sales revenue.
Taking your CRM tool and leveraging it on top of clearly defined sales best practices in your business means that you are not measuring meaningless numbers or activity that you can't control. You're now measuring data that is part of a clear path to profitability for your business and the supporting activity that you can control.
Instead of buying CRM software to just track how many leads are being generated or how many sales a particular sales person is bringing in, you can use your CRM software to track how many events your sales team are attending that are bringing in those leads. You can use your CRM software to measure which events are generating the best leads and do more of them.
Mattson said he finds that many companies think their CRM system is at fault. After a few months of using their CRM software, when they don't see the results they expected, they want to switch to yet another CRM software.
So before you buy CRM software, ensure your sales and marketing best practices are the best they can be.

ASUS Radeon R9 270X DirectCU II TOP 2GB Video Card Review
Another day, another R series based video card from AMD. This time, we're looking at another one of the R9 cards. While the other day, we had a look at the entry-level R9 model in the MSI R9 270 2GB Gaming OC, today we're looking at the model above that: the ASUS R9 270X DirectCU II TOP 2GB.
It has been a long time between testing ASUS video cards, but we were so happy to see the ASUS R9 280X DirectCU II TOP 3GB roll through our labs a few weeks ago. And, we were even more impressed to see it perform exceptionally well, with a really strong overclock being achieved on the model. If you find yourself thinking of the ASUS series of cards, but feel that the R9 280X $300 price tag is too much, the cheaper R9 270X version might be just what you're looking for.
There's really not much more that needs to be said. We all have a good idea about who ASUS is, and we've looked at so many AMD video cards over the last few months, that we have a good idea of exactly where each model sits in the market. So, with haste, let's get stuck into the package, and see just what ASUS is offering us here today with the R9 270X DirectCU II TOP 2GB.
Taking a look at the box, you can see the overall design isn't anything new. We've got the model clearly shown, along with mention that it's of course one of the DirectCU II TOP cards. We can also see some of the main features across the bottom, which include the TOP Overclocked Edition, 3GB GDDR5 Memory, Digi VRM, and support for GPU Tweak. Turning the box over, you can see it goes into a whole lot more detail on the main features that are offered. We've got a good run down on the DirectCU II cooler, Digi+ VRM Super Allow Power, and information about GPU Tweak. In the bottom left corner, you can also see a description on the I/O panel. We will of course look closer at that in a few moments.
Taking a look in the package, you can see we've got the Speed Setup and Driver CD, which includes GPU Tweak. Due to when we received the card, we didn't get a complete package. Along with these two items, we also have a Dual Molex to 6-Pin PCIe power connector, and CrossFire bridge to round things out.

On Wednesday, Oxnard, Calif.-based Gold Coast Transit (GCT) adopted its first fare increase since 2003, which will occur in two phases beginning in January 2010.
Fare increases for GCT will increase from $1.25 to $1.35 for adults, while GCT's ACCESS paratransit service, for people with disabilities and seniors aged 65 or older, will increase by $0.20 to $2.70. Beginning in July of 2011, the second phase of the fare increase will take effect, with GCT's adult bus fare increasing to $1.50 and GCT's ACCESS paratransit service increasing to $3 per ride.
The fare increase is intended to help GCT offset diminishing revenues from state and local sources, which account for 80 percent of GCT's overall budget. In the past year, State Transit Assistance funding was eliminated completely and the Transportation Development Act Funds that local government use to pay for GCT transit service declined sharply.
Transit agencies across California have been forced to implement fare increases, service reductions, or both as a consequence of the elimination of state funding for transit and declining sales tax revenue.
The GCT board asked staff to report back in 2010 on the status of ridership, fare revenues and the overall budget before the second phase of the fare increase goes into effect in July 2011.
The energy will be used to help power the vehicles and run the climate control systems, lights, ramps and wheelchair lift while the buses are stopped, eliminating the need for idling.
The Non-Emergent Medical Transportation contracts are for the Oregon Health Authority's Tri County MedLink and the Illinois Department of Healthcare and Family Services Managed Care Network's Family Health Network.
The Titan800 Retractor System is designed to meet the latest WC18 industry regulations, which take effect December 2015.
The Final Rule applies to public entities providing fixed route, dial-a-ride and complementary paratransit services. It establishes that an individual's disability cannot preclude a public transportation entity from providing full access to its service except where doing so would fundamentally alter the service.
Following unanimous approval by the SFMTA board in January, the SFMTA has worked tirelessly to meet the city's demand for this program. In just over one month, the SFMTA has processed more than 38,000 applications for the Free Muni program expansion.

This Australian documentary, that has won praise from professionals in the field, highlights how real estate distorts the rest of the economy.

How economies work – and don't
a neologism for sharing "rent" or "social surplus" – the money we spend on the nature we use. When we buy land, such as the land beneath a home, we typically pay the wrong person – the homeowner. Instead, since land cost us nothing to make and is the common heri-tage of us all, rather than pay the owner, we should pay ourselves, our neighbors, our community. That is, we should all pay land dues to the public treasury, then our government would pay us land dividends from this collected revenue. It's similar to the Alaska oil dividend, almost $2,000 last year. Indeed, the annual rental value of land, oil, all other natural resources, including the broadcast spectrum and other government-granted permits such as corporate charters, totals several trillion dollars each year. It's so much that some could be spent on basic social services, the rest parceled out as a divi-dend, as Tom Paine suggested, and taxes (except any on natural rents) could be abolished, as Thomas Jeffer-son suggested. Were we sharing Earth by sharing her worth, territorial disputes would be fewer, less intense, and more resolvable.
about the money we spend on the nature we use. It flows torrentially yet invisibly, often submerged in the price of housing, food, fuel, and everything else. Flowing from the many to the few, natural rent distorts prices and rewards unjust and unsustainable choices. Redirected via dues and dividends to flow from each to all, "rent" payments would level the playing field and empower neighbors to shrink their workweek and expand their horizons. Modeled on nature's feedback loops, earlier proposals to redirect rent found favor with Paine, Tolstoy, and Einstein. Wherever tried, to the degree tried, redirecting rent worked. One of today's versions, the green tax shift, spreads out of Europe. Another, the Property Tax Shift, activists can win at the local level, building a world that works right for everyone.
a way to connect the dots. Making the cyber rounds is "The Cavernous Divide" by Scott Klinger, from AlterNet (posted March 21): "As the number of billionaires in the world expands, so does the number of those in poverty." Duh. The yawning income gap is not news. Nearly every issue of our quarterly digest carries a similar quote. Yet the connection was worked out long ago by one of America's greatest thinkers, Henry George, who labeled his masterpiece, Progress and Poverty. Techno- and socio-advances always enrich few and impoverish many. Yet progress also pushes up location values – the geonomic insight (is Silicon Valley cheaper now or more expensive?). Instead of taxing income, sales, or buildings, society could collect those values of sites, resources, EM spectrum, and ecosystem services via fees and dues, which would lower the income ceiling, and instead of lavishing corporate welfare, pay out the recovered revenue via dividends, which would jack up the income floor. Dots connected.
a study of a phenomenon David Ricardo noted going on two centuries ago. When wine grapes rise to $10,000 a ton from the very best land (last year, cabernet sauvignon commanded an average of $4,021 a ton in the Napa Valley), then vineyard prices soar from $18,000 an acre in the 1980′s to $100,000 an acre five years ago and now for a top pedigree up to $300,000 an acre (The New York Times, April 9, via Wyn Achenbaum). Pricey land does not make wine pricey; spendy wine makes land spendy. While vintners make their wine tasty, nature and society in general – not any lone owner – make land desireable. Steve Kerch of CBS's MarketWatch (April 5) notes that much of what a home sells for on the open market is a reflection of intangible factors such as what school district the house sits in. The price the builder has to pay for the land also tends to be driven by the same intangibles. Because the value of land comes from society, and because one's use excludes the rest of society, each user owes all others compensation, and is owed compensation by everyone else. Sharing land's value, instead of taxing one's efforts, is the policy of geonomics.
an answer for Jonathan of the Green Party (Nov 7): "What does 'share our surplus' mean?" Our surplus is the values that society generates synergistically. It's the money we spend on the nature we use: on land sites, natural resources, EM spectrum, ecosystem services (assimilating pollutants). It's also the money we pay to holders of government-granted privileges like corporate charters. We could share it by paying for the nature we use and privileges we hold to the public treasury then getting back a fair share of the recovered revenue. Used to be, owners did owe rent ("own" and "owe" used to be one word). And presently, some lucky residents do get back periodic dividends: Alaska's oil dividend and Aspen Colorado's housing assistance. Doing that, instead of subsidizing bads while taxing goods, is the essence of geonomics. Jonathan: "Is local currency what you mean?" Editor: It's not. Community currency is a good reform, but every good reform pushes up site values. That makes land an even more tempting object of speculation. Now, any good will eventually do bad by widening the income gap – until you share land values.
in part the Great Green Tax Shift maxed out. Economically, taxing pollution and depletion does reduce pollutants and extracts – and thus the tax base; plus such taxes are regressive, requiring a safety net. On the other hand, collecting site rent is progressive and generates a revenue surplus payable as a dividend to residents, which can serve as the safety net. Environmentally, taxes on waste and extraction do not drive efficient use of land, as does getting site rent.
a discipline that, compared to economics, is as obscure as Warren Buffett's investment strategy, compared to conventional investment theory, about which Buffett said, "You couldn't advance in a finance department in this country unless you taught that the world was flat." (The New York Times, Oct 29). The writer wondered, "But why? If it works, why don't more investors use it?" Good question. Geonomics works, too. Every place that has used it has prospered while conserving resources. Yet it remains off the radar of many wanna-be reformers. Gradually, tho', that's changing. More are becoming aware of what geonomics studies – all the money we spend on the nature we use. Geonomics (1) as an alternative worldview to the anthropocentric, sees human economies as part of the embracing ecosystem with natural feedback loops seeking balance in both systems. (2) As an alternative to worker vs. investor, it sees our need for sites and resources making those who own land into landlords. (3)As an alternative to economics, it tracks the trillions of "rent" as it drives the "housing" bubble and all other indicators. And (4) as an alternative to left or right, it suggests we not tax ourselves then subsidize our favorites but recover and share society's surplus, paying in land dues and getting back "rent" dividends, a la Alaska's oil dividend. Letting rent go to the wrong pockets wreaks havoc, while redirecting it to everyone would solve our economic ills and the ills downstream from them. People must learn to stop whining so much and feel enough self-esteem to demand a fair share of rent, society's surplus, the commonwealth.
what you do when you see economies as part of the ecosystem, following feedback loops and storing up energy. Surplus energy – fat or profit – enables us to produce and reproduce. To recycle society's surplus, the commonwealth, geonomics would replace taxes with land dues (charged to users of sites and resources, including the EM spectrum, and extra to polluters), and replace subsidies with rent dividends to citizens (a la Alaska's oil dividend). Without taxes and subsidies to distort them, prices become precise, reflect accurately our costs and values; then, motivated by no more than the bottom line, both producers and consumers make sustainable choices. While no place uses geonomics in its entirety, some places use parts of it, most notably a shift of the property tax off buildings, onto locations. Shifting the property tax drives efficient use of land, in-fills cities, improves the housing stock, makes homes affordable, engenders jobs and investment opportunities, lowers crime, raises civic participation, etc – overall it makes cities more livable. Geonomics – a way to share the bounty of nature and society – is something we can work for locally, globally, and in between.
of interest to Dave Lakhani, President Bold Approach (Mar 8) and Matt Ozga (Jan 29): "I write for the Washington Square News, the student run newspaper out of New York University. Geonomics seems like it has great significance, especially in this area. When was geonomics developed, and by whom?" About 1982 I began. Two years later, Chilean Dr Manfred Max-Neef offered the term geonomics for Earth-friendly economics. In the mid-80s, a millionaire founded a Geonomics Institute on Middlebury College campus in Vermont re global trade. In the 1990s, CNBC cablecast a show, Geonomics, on world trade as it benefits world traders. My version of geonomics draws heavily from the American Henry George who wrote Progress & Poverty (1879) and won the mayoralty of New York but was denied his victory by Tammany Hall (1886). He in turn got lots from Brits David Ricardo, Adam Smith, and the French physiocrats of the 1700s. My version differs by focusing not on taxation but on the flow of rents for sites, resources, sinks, and government-granted privileges. Forgoing these trillions, we instead tax and subsidize, making waste cheap and sustainability expensive. To quit distorting price, replace taxes with "land dues" and replace subsidies with a Citizens Dividend. Matt: "This idea of sharing rents sounds, if not explicitly socialist, at least at odds with some capitalist values (only the strong survive & prosper, etc). Is it fair to say that geonomics has some basis in socialist theory?" A closer descriptor would be Christian. Beyond ethics into praxis, Alaska shares oil rent with residents, and they're more libertarian than socialist. While individuals provide labor and capital, no one provides land while society generates its value. Rent is not private property but public property. Sharing Rent is predistribution, sharing it before an elite or state has a chance to get and misspend it, like a public REIT (Real Estate Investment Trust) paying dividends to its stakeholders – a perfectly capitalist model. What we should leave untaxed are our sales, salaries, and structures, things we do produce.
one of many words I coined over 20 years ago: geoism, geonomics, geonomy, geocracy, etc – neologisms that later others came up with, too. CNBC once had a Geonomics Show, and Middlebury College has a Geonomics Institute. If "economy" is literally "management of the household", then geonomy is "management of the planet". The kind of management I had in mind is not what CNBC was thinking – top-down. My geonomics is not hands-on, interfering, but hands-off, organic. It'd strive to align policy with natural processes, similar to what holistic healing does in medicine, what organic farming does in agriculture. Geonomics attends to two key components: One, the crucial stuff to track is fat – or profit, especially profits without production, such as rent, or all the money we spend on the nature we use. Society's surplus is the sine qua non for growth, needed to counter death – not merely more, but sustainable development, more from less. Two, the basic process to respect is the feedback loop. These let nature maintain balance automatically and could do the same for markets, if we let them. Letting them would turn our economies, now our masters, into a geonomy, our servant, providing us with prosperity, eco-librium (to coin a term) and leisure, time off – a hostile environment for economan but a cradle for a loving and creative humanity.

WAUKESHA, Wis. (AP) - The parents of a 12-year-old Wisconsin girl who survived being stabbed 19 times and left for dead say she has been released from the hospital.
A spokeswoman for the girl's family issued a statement Friday night, saying the girl was released from Waukesha Memorial Hospital.
The statement says the girl is "excited to be out of the hospital, see her pets and continue along the road to recovery."
Police say the girl was repeatedly stabbed by two classmates trying to please Slender Man, a fictional character they found on a horror website. The two girls have been charged as adults with first-degree attempted homicide.
Doctors previously told police the victim was lucky to be alive because the knife just missed a major artery near her heart.

This profile of "asteroid miners" Planetary Resources is worth a read, if only because this seems so out-of-this-world:
The team is currently busy at work at Planetary Resources' new facilities, building prospecting spacecraft. Developing and producing its own technology in-house is both economic and savvy for a moderately small company with big aims, says Lewicki. "This is a way for us to make quick progress, to keep up with new tech trends as they emerge and also to dramatically reduce the cost of exploring deep space.â€
The company's current project is the partially crowd-funded Arkyrd, which will be launched this autumn from the International Space Station.
"It'll be our first satellite,†explains Lewicki. "It'll demonstrate a lot of the core technologies that we intend to use in the commercial exploration of asteroids. We've done a lot of stuff here on earth, but getting into space still has a long queue; we're coming to the front of that line.â€

My interests are photography, genealogy, writing, and travel. Actually, I find that genealogy itself encompasses all of these interests. So, this blog will be about my travels on the road to find our long-lost cousins; to discover and record our family history, including (auto)biographies, in both text and photos. To see how a particular person mentioned here fits into our family tree, LINK to my Father's or Mother's Genealogical web site (scroll down, right column).
Papaw looks great!
