Critical fortnight for Bulls
14 May 2012
RYAN VREDE writes the Bulls have placed themselves in the inside lane to top the South African conference but much rests on their performances in the next two weeks.
Unbeaten since their defeat to the Stormers in March (five matches ago), the Bulls have overhauled their great rivals at the summit of the South African conference and, with a two from two return in their opening matches in Australia, have set themselves up for a potentially outstanding tour.
I wrote prior to the tour that the Bulls would have to at least match the Stormers' three from four tour return to keep their conference challenge strong. They are on course to do that and indeed may yet give themselves some breathing room if they are able to oust the Highlanders and Chiefs.
Both those sides exhibited flaws in their armour at the weekend. The Bulls will be encouraged by their inability to cope with the tactical questions the Hurricanes and Reds asked respectively. They are certainly questions the Bulls can ask with greater efficiency and regularity.
Their victory over the Waratahs in Sydney was significant because it demanded that they explore a depth of character and resolve that was the hallmark of their championship winning sides of 2007, 2009 and 2010. I'm not suggesting the current crop are as good as that vintage, and neither am I asserting that this Bulls side has that character and resolve in equal measure. I'm simply highlighting what appears to be a shared characteristic that is decisive in high-pressure situations.
Furthermore, they continue to embarrass the still widely-held view that they are one-dimensional in their approach. Indeed they lead the competition for tries scored. There remain lingering concerns about their defence. Some of those concerns were eased with a solid performance in this facet of play in Sydney, but a truer measure of their health in this regard will come in the next fortnight against teams capable of exposing potential vulnerabilities the Waratahs were never able to.
There is also confidence to be drawn from Morne Steyn's upswing in goal-kicking form. When Steyn kicks well for goal the Bulls usually win and in recent weeks the flyhalf has shown why he is the man Heyneke Meyer will back against England, a series the national coach believes could be decided by the boot given the lack of synergy both sides will suffer from.
Winning one of their last two tour matches will be an acceptable achievement, with two setting them up for the conference title provided they don't lose key players to injury while on national duty in June. They have home matches against the Stormers, Cheetahs and Lions upon their return, with a trip to Kings Park in the mix as well. Tellingly, no South African side matches their win percentage after returning from tour.
That we're even talking about this side as contenders (let alone potential champions) for the conference title is testament to their astute recruiting, good structures, competent coaching, talent and character. They lost a clutch of senior players at the end of 2011 and were expected to go through a rebuilding period. They've defied expectations and on the evidence of what they've produced thus far, they've earned the right to be spoken about as genuine contenders for the title.

14 May 2012, 08:17 amRyan, you should come to vrede with the fact that the bully boys were lucky to win their last two matches. Against the kiwis I expect two loses. Sad but true.
14 May 2012, 08:28 amRyan's point about Morne's kicking is a valid one. In fact, it is worth noting that had he been in his current kicking form, the Bulls would have won both the Blues and Stormers games and would be unbeaten now.
If Steyn is on song I feel sorry for the Stormers at Loftus.
14 May 2012, 08:32 amThis Keo bunch are like a wonen with periods…. one moment its all moonshine and roses.. the next they are a bunch of losers… after the next two games lets see how Ryan writes that they lost too many quality players last year…
14 May 2012, 08:33 am@Tacitus(Deucalion)-2: Ja and if Habana was on his try scoring form, the stormers would have had 4 more bonus points… get real!!
14 May 2012, 08:36 amHabana was last in try scoring form in the Loftus final against the Chiefs, bud.
14 May 2012, 08:42 am@RL: Wow that Ryan to vrede must be one of the lamest things I have seen, and I don't think luck has much to do with results at super rugby level… All we can do is wait and see who sits where on the log comes play-offs . The rest is just educated guessing, some more educated than others.
14 May 2012, 08:43 amAgreed Ryan.
14 May 2012, 08:45 amBetter article from Ryan in recent times.
@RL(RL)-1: I think that 3/4 is not far-fetched. And seeing how the driving and pick-up and go strategy used against the Chiefs were their downfall, I'd say 3/4 is more of a probability than a possibility. They jury is not out on the Highlanders game though…
@Provvas(Provvas)-4: Habs is getting into better form, and he will add a lot of value to the Boks against England. That's if he gets picked by HM. We know that Heinecke makes selection on heart and personality, more than rugby knowledge, hence not making Habana a counter offer when he moved to WP. Heineke said on many occansions that he will only decide on a squad after he gets to know the players. Dont be surprized if you see Basson with JPP.
That my 5c
14 May 2012, 08:47 am@wynkaptein(wynkaptein)-6: He's a Lions supporter. Bitter and saddened by the fact that his beloved team faces the chop he lashes out at everything around him, like a dying animal.
Its why we dont point out the obvious flaws in his argument.
When the retardedkid goes to the toilet by himself for the first time, beaming proudly at you you pat him on the head, pretending to not see the dark stain on his crotch.
Sad but true. -
14 May 2012, 08:49 am@Taahirah(Taahirah)-9: Ha Ha. That was hilarious.
14 May 2012, 08:52 am@Blue Label(Blue Label)-8: I was merely trying to point out Tac line of thinking of if and buts…. Bryan is having a good season so far…
Tac just uses the excuse like a child that the bulls lost due to poor kicking from Steyn… If steyn kicked this.. if steyn kicked that.. .forgetting that if |steyn kicked the penalty then maybe a try would have been scored by the other team to win it…. Stupid logic actually
14 May 2012, 08:59 am@Taahirah: New to the community, so thanks for the heads up…
@Provvas: Totally agree with you, stupid logic… and I am a bulls supporter
14 May 2012, 09:01 am@Provvas(Provvas)-11: Agreed.
@Taahirah(Taahirah)-9: HAHAHA
14 May 2012, 09:20 amConference title counts for sweet ****-all if you dont win the comp. The Bulls the only team with the BMT to do this.
14 May 2012, 09:22 am@Blue Label(Blue Label)-8:
Mentioned this another thread…
As th Bulls embarked on their Australasian tour, the Highlanders game stood out as the most challenging (despite the Chiefs' log position at the time), due to their well drilled pack, and efficient set-piece.
This has changed IMO, the Landers is blowing hot-&-cold at the moment. More confident of getting a result in Dunedin.Obviously not set in stone, ask the Saders….
14 May 2012, 10:38 amBulls will define Highlanders season this weekend…… a loss for them and its the beginning of the end. The first thing will be try to negate Morne Steyns radar boot, so give him as few opportunities as possible…..can only do this through good discipline….Have to win territorial battle…thus creating pressure……limit handling errors to a minimum but still move the ball wide where they have a slight advantage…… and tackle anything that moves…..interesting battle this weekend, have to say Bulls will be favorites…
14 May 2012, 11:01 am@Taahirah(Taahirah)-9: I note how you resort to name calling rather than facing up to the fact that the bullies were lucky to scrape two wins in Aus. Man up and admit it.
14 May 2012, 11:07 amBulls have been a little dodgy these past couple of weeks. The pack is still way below par in my opinion with an average set piece. Talent has been winning them games lately not a drilled
Cohesive concerted effort…something that will be required this week.
Back row injuries are becoming a huge issue and flip needs to start playing like a hard lock. He,s badly in need of a good performance.
14 May 2012, 11:16 am@RL(RL)-17:
Good teams win, when they're supposed to lose. Cases in point..,
1. Stormers vs. Cheetahs
2. Bulls vs. Rebels
add to the above Saders going down in Melbourne.Luck? Beg to differ.
14 May 2012, 11:23 am@Te Rangatira(Te Rangatira)-16:
Both the Landers & Bulls pretty much knows what to expect from eachother. Tough game, think it will be a low scoring affair. -
14 May 2012, 11:26 am@Tacitus(Deucalion)-5: True 'dat! He's been better this year, but Province is the graveyard of players who move there in their prime.
@RL(RL)-17: lucky? They played smart rugby when it was needed. They were in the right position on the field and played better pressure rugby.
As a Bulls fan, I am worried about the next 3 weeks. Highlanders are hurting. Chiefs are a quality side. And the Stormers, as injury depleted as they are, catch them on a return from a long tour.
Having said that, you have to admire their sheer bloody-mindedness! Go Bulls!
14 May 2012, 11:35 am@Brigadier Van Zyl(Brigadier Van Zyl)-18:
Scrums has been a lottery throughout – must be concerning that we give away quite a bit at this play. Line-outs has been good IMO, lacking synergy at the tackle point though. Stegman in particular a big loss in this regard,with the two games coming up in NZ. -
14 May 2012, 11:35 amOn the plus side i really like this young venter kid at 12, a lttle early but looks as if he could be our version of a conrad smith sort….a no mistakes kind of player who picks awesome angles and looks for the pass. Might be an idea to shuffle wynand to 13 where he has played before. Jj and sadie have yet to put 80 minutes together and i prefer jj on the wing anyway albeit akona does the business for us every week.
But bottom line is still the pack…will the real bulls forwards start standingnup already.
14 May 2012, 11:40 am22, stegmann will be a huge loss albeit i did get the feeling this past weekend that stander was settling into his role better. We need to hope that d.potgieter has some luck now and hits form and stays injury free.basically, the pressure now falls to arno botha who has to without a doubt add impact regardless of hisnage and inexperience from the bench.
14 May 2012, 11:43 am@Pot Blou Gevaar(Pot Blou Gevaar)-20:
perhaps…. Bulls can sustain pressure for long periods… causes opposition to infringe….which brings the Steyn factor into play…..Highlanders are capable of scoring tries….do they go around them…through them…over them…. or all three. -
14 May 2012, 11:55 am@Brigadier Van Zyl(Brigadier Van Zyl)-24:
No way you can start Potgieter straight after such a long injury lay-off.
Botha and Stander will have to start, with Potgieter coming off the bench.
14 May 2012, 11:56 amIn fact, if we can finish the game without brining Potgieter on, even better.
He was supposed to be off for another 2 or 3 weeks with that hammie. No way he is 100% fit yet.
14 May 2012, 12:01 pm26.ah,in that case we have a problem, is tecklenberg there.
14 May 2012, 12:02 pm@Brigadier Van Zyl(Brigadier Van Zyl)-28:
I rate Stander and Botha as a combo.
14 May 2012, 12:12 pmHas tecklenburg flown out as a backup, on more loseforward down and we are in trouble
14 May 2012, 12:13 pm@Brigadier Van Zyl(Brigadier Van Zyl)-30:
No. Only Potgieter and Dean Greyling.
14 May 2012, 12:22 pm@Tacitus(Deucalion)-31:
Hope McGyver gets his head out of the baby milk bottles early on in the piece. Expect the Landers to come up with an allmighty scrap. -
14 May 2012, 12:33 pm@Te Rangatira(Te Rangatira)-25:
Chiefs has me more worried in that regard.
Jamie Mac back this weekend? Together with Manu and Hore, their forwards needs to be contained. I think that this will be their primary source of attack. We should look to stifle them there…
Very close to call, 50/50 IMO… -
14 May 2012, 12:38 pm@Tacitus(Deucalion)-29: Stander and Botha both too similar, good ball carriers but not fetcher replacements. Both also a tadd on the short side leaving Spies as the only loosie as a Lineout option.
@Brigadier Van Zyl(Brigadier Van Zyl)-30: pray that Steyn stays injury free. One knock to him and it is Bulls season over.
14 May 2012, 12:42 pmAgree with your point on Steyn. Fact is, we won both the 2009 and 2010 tournaments by playing Steyn for every game. We rely heavily on him.
Another reason why I say a team actually can get more value from key players that don't seek out contact and thus stay injury free for longer.
As for Stander and Botha, Stander has had to adapt to the fetcher role, but we won the last 5 games with him in that position.
14 May 2012, 13:21 pm@Brigadier Van Zyl(Brigadier Van Zyl)-18: Flip has'nt been the same since he was concussed by head-on tackle from Owen Franks last year. I think he has lost all his confidence.
14 May 2012, 13:30 pmI coached Dewald Potgieter at school and have always had him figured as a 6, although he has received most of his recognition at 7 and 8. Whichever position he plays, I know one thing. I have yet to meet another human being with a stronger mindset than Dewald. I spoke to him some time ago and he told me he turned down several foreign approaches with a view to regaining his Bok spot. I am watching this space in anticipation.
14 May 2012, 13:41 pm@johnnycumlately(johnnycumlately)-37: you do know that he is leaving the Bulls to play club rugby in the UK?
14 May 2012, 13:50 pm@johnnycumlately(johnnycumlately)-37:
I also coached him at school.
Pete, is that you?
14 May 2012, 13:56 pmArno Botha needs gametime
agree about Stander and Botha combo. rest Spies
bring in Daniel Adonga
14 May 2012, 13:59 pmWhere on earth did you dream that up?
14 May 2012, 13:59 pm@greatest13gerber(greatest13gerber)-40:
Adonga cannot even make the Vodacom Cup team.
He has a long way to go to make it as a rugby player.
14 May 2012, 17:32 pmBulls real tour starts now! The games in Aussie you would expect the Bulls to win….but the two games in NZ are a lot tougher prospects. However…the Bulls do have 9 points in the bag already….so they're going to NZ without a "need to win one" attitude but rather a "be good to win" one……
Still don't know if they're going to win one in NZ though…..
14 May 2012, 18:10 pmLose both games on tour and its advantage Stormers!
14 May 2012, 23:01 pm@Pot Blou Gevaar(Pot Blou Gevaar)-33:
Yes very interesting on how Highlanders will try to attack them…….I still think they will try to get quick ball and move it wide to wide, then look for the inside ball to their wingers and Ben Smith. As for their attack in the forwards, they will primarily use the pick and go with Hore and co, and try to link some short passes together…….If they can do this successfully and maintain parity in the set piece….plus stifle Bulls driving mauls and limit Steyns shots at goal…..they will have a shot at winning……but we all know it sounds good on paper……still have to go out there and execute…….If the game is being held at the dreadful Carrisbrook Park would have Highlanders as slight favorites……. but at their new stadium , Bulls will start as favorites based on form.

Dr. Bronner's Organic Pure Castile Liquid Soap Peppermint -- 32 fl oz
Best soap monet can buy
I have been using Dr. Bronners for over 20 years. There is nothing like it! Being liquid in a plastic jar it is never messy like a bar. The soap itself is mild and with the mint it is quite refreshing. It is my favorite soap of all time, and if I run out of shampoo I have no problem using it for my hair as it is mild but still cleans well. Highly recommended!
March 28, 2007
I love the fact that these soaps are very versatile and eco friendly, but I find them a bit drying. And they leave a thick soap film. Not the end of the world. I do love the peppermint scent, very refreshing!
April 25, 2013
Dr.Bronner is the best.
I have been using this for along time and is so good.
April 22, 2013
Pepperment is a great eyeopener
My favorite soap a great wake up for my morning shower. I've been using it for years.
April 12, 2013
long time favorite
My whole family uses Dr. Bronner's. Peppermint is our favorite. Always feels refreshing. Vitacost continues to have the best prices and fast shipping.

US security firm alleges massive hacking by Chinese military
BEIJING (AP) — Cyberattacks that stole massive amounts of information from military contractors, energy companies and other key industries in the U.S. and elsewhere have been traced to the doorstep of a Chinese military unit, a U.S. security firm alleged Tuesday.
China's Foreign Ministry dismissed the report as "groundless," and the Defense Ministry denied any involvement in hacking attacks.
China has frequently been accused of hacking, but the report by Virginia-based Mandiant Corp. contains some of the most extensive and detailed accusations to date linking its military to a wave of cyberspying against U.S. and other foreign companies and government agencies.
Mandiant said it traced the hacking back to a neighborhood in the outskirts of Shanghai that includes a drab, white 12-story office building run by "Unit 61398" of the People's Liberation Army.
The unit "has systematically stolen hundreds of terabytes of data from at least 141 organizations," Mandiant wrote. By comparison, the U.S. Library of Congress 2006-2010 Twitter archive of about 170 billion tweets totals 133.2 terabytes.
"From our observations, it is one of the most prolific cyberespionage groups in terms of the sheer quantity of information stolen," the company said. It added that the unit has been in operation since at least 2006.
Mandiant said it decided that revealing the results of its investigation was worth the risk of the hackers changing their tactics and becoming even more difficult to trace.
"It is time to acknowledge the threat is originating in China, and we wanted to do our part to arm and prepare security professionals to combat that threat effectively," it said.
In a statement faxed to The Associated Press, the Defense Ministry firmly rejected any involvement in hacking, saying Chinese law forbids all activities harming Internet security.
"The Chinese government has always firmly combated such activities and the Chinese military has never supported any form of hacking activity," the ministry said. "Statements to the effect that the Chinese military takes part in Internet attacks are unprofessional and are not in accordance with the facts." Continued...
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Hong Lei did not directly address the claims, but when questioned on the report Tuesday, he said he doubted the evidence would withstand scrutiny.
"To make groundless accusations based on some rough material is neither responsible nor professional," Hong told reporters at a regularly scheduled news conference.
Reiterating a standard China government response on hacking claims, Hong said China itself is a major victim of such crimes, including attacks originating in the United States.
"As of now, the cyberattacks and cybercrimes China has suffered are rising rapidly every year," Hong said.
Mandiant's methodology used in the investigation was sound, said Massimo Cotrozzi, managing director of KCS Group, a London-based international cyber investigation consulting firm that was not involved in Mandiant's research.
"No one as yet has provided the world conclusive evidence of a link between the Chinese military and the attacks. This report is the nearest thing to conclusive evidence that I have seen," Cotrozzi said.
Mandiant said its findings led it to alter the conclusion of a 2010 report it wrote on Chinese hacking, in which it said it was not possible to determine the extent of government knowledge of such activities.
"The details we have analyzed during hundreds of investigations convince us that the groups conducting these activities are based primarily in China and that the Chinese government is aware of them," the company said in a summary of its latest report.
It said the hacking was traced to the 2nd Bureau of the People's Liberation Army General Staff's 3rd Department, most commonly known as unit 61398, in the Shanghai suburbs.
News of the report spread Tuesday on the Chinese Internet, with many commentators calling it an excuse for the U.S. to impose greater restrictions to contain China's growing technological prowess. Continued...
Graham Cluley, a British cybersecurity expert who was not involved in Mandiant's research, said people in the computer industry believe China's government is behind such attacks but have been unable to confirm the source.
"None of us would be very surprised or be uncomfortable saying we strongly suspect the Chinese authorities are involved in spying this way," said Cluley, a senior technology consultant for security firm Sophos in Britain.
"I think we are seeing a steady escalation" of sophistication in hacking, Cluley said. "This is really the new era of cybercrime. We've moved from kids in their bedroom and financially motivated crime to state-sponsored cybercrime, which is interested in stealing secrets and getting military or commercial advantage."
Associated Press writers Gillian Wong and Joe McDonald contributed to this report.

Affies humiliate festival hosts
3 Apr 2010
Affies scored seven tries to thrash St John's 50-7 on Saturday.
Nordus van der Walt, Schalk van Heerden, Reinard Nel, Carlo Engelbrecht, WJ Strydom, Christiaan du Toit and Hancko Seal all crossed the chalk for the Pretoria side, with Warren Gilbert kicking six conversions and a penalty. The hosts' response was a solitary converted try by Jason Newton.

3 Apr 2010, 20:37 pmGo Paul Roos go!
3 Apr 2010, 23:54 pm@Gambit25: I am told that after the Jeppe u15 incident at Paarl Boys High hostels last weekend, that things might get tough on Monday for Jeppe vs Boishaai.
4 Apr 2010, 06:33 am@Bergie
What was the incident and who told you that they may get tough on Jeppe?
Don't underestimate this Jeppe team, they can hold their own with any side at St Johns this year. -
4 Apr 2010, 10:29 am@Bergie
The idea that 18 boys under 15 of age could affect 22 boys 17 and older is a stretch. The two 1st teams (Paarl and Jeppe) would have had very little, if any, interaction with the U15 sides since school closed for the Easter break. The only reason that it will be tough for the teams on Monday is that they are coming up to the 3rd massive game in 5 days. Personally I see the game hinging on the boot of the number 10 and number 15 of Paarl. If Jeppe tackle these two players out the game I think the chances of an upset (in terms of last years rankings) is definitely on the cards.
Good luck to both sides (with a little extra for Jeppe)
4 Apr 2010, 14:59 pmBOISHAAAAI Pappie!!!! Pasop maar vir hul forwards, hulle sal jou BREEK!
4 Apr 2010, 18:25 pm@Cats Crusade: The Jeppe u15′s got drunk and pissed on the mattresses in the Boishaai hostel, including those of the 1st team. They then got banned from participating in the u15 tournament in Paarl and was send home. The majority of the Boishaai 1st team is in the hostel and not happy about the incident!
Boishaai will win easily, Jeppe is overrated due to their difficult win over a struggling KES team. Boishaai by 10 at least. -
5 Apr 2010, 10:32 am@ Bergie
I'm amazed at the story you are telling. For one real reason. It is false. Not only is it false it is embarrassing that you would come up with it. Having spoken to the Paarl Boys Headmaster at St Johns on Thursday I can assure you that they were not sent home. In future I suggest you get the full story before spreading lies.
Would love to meet you today at St John's to introduce you to the Headmaster of Paarl Boys to set the story straight in your mind. I will be there from 12 onwards sitting on the 22 opposite the school buildings. Please come find me so that we can sort this out.
6 Apr 2010, 10:23 am@JeppeBoy97: I think the Headmaster is being nice to you. Do yourself a favour and go to Die Burger website and search for articles on Jeppe and all will be revealed.
The facts are they got drunk and acted like hooligans in the hostel! -
6 Apr 2010, 12:45 pm@JeppeBoy97: Unfortunatly the story is true. They were withdrawn from the tournament by their own Headmaster and Paarl Boys who were supposed to play them on the Wednesday had no opposition because they already left Tuesday evening. Paarl Boys had to play a "barbarian" side made up of all the other schools reserves. The matras story is also unfortunatly also true as witnessed by some Oakdale boys.

Beware if you owned the old old version

About Me Frequent User
Comments about NeatReceipts� Scanner:
I had the 4.XXX version of Neat Works and decided to finally up grade. The install was a bit tricky so I called the help desk which was very helpful. Then I tried to convert the old backup file which is 500mb to the new system and it did not work. I tried and the help desk tried and no can do. After 3 hours on the phone and 5 on my own, I had to take a temporary break. It still does not work but will contact them again to see if there is something else that can be done.
Get Rid Of The Paper!
By laps
from Livonia, NY
I have been wanting to buy this for my income tax business. I copy so many of my clients receipts and back up documents to substanciate tax returns. I literally have piles of copies of paper which I have to retain. This was so easy to use. I plugged it in made my folders and started scanning. I can now give my customers their receipts back. It is also recognized by IRS as a legal receipt! Once I started using for my business, I started scanning personal receipts to track my spending. I then decided to copy important documents such as birth certificates, insurance policies, and medical policies. I love it!
Much better than I expected
By Gogirousa
from Long Island, NY
I ordered this item to keep track of my purchases to see exactly what I was spending. The software makes it very easy. I scanned two months of receipts in about 20 minutes. I ran my reports easily and was able to see exactly where the money was going. It calculates totals and keeps track of the tax you are paying separately. You can generate spending and expense reports very easily. the scan quality is ok and it is easy to trim the scans down if you need that function. Overall I am glad I finally purchased this great business tool.

I have the portable unit and love it, but sometime have trouble aligning the sheets into it straight. The desktop unit probably helps to solve that problem. The Neat Scanner allows me to eleminate all those stacks of paper receipts and other documents. Makes life more organized.

It's okay...
By J
from California
Nice size and fairly quick but often wouldn't pull the paper through without a little nudge. The paper often didn't get pulled through evenly giving me an unusable twisted like scan and a krinkle down he side making it difficult to rescan. Definitely for attended and careful use. In my case I have a lot of receipts to scan so I returned this for the unit with the Auto Doc Feeder. Much better! The ADF scans both sides very quick! Down side to the entire system is the file size of the NeatWorks export. I have a feeling by years end it's going to be unmanageable. This scanner is worth using for Mobil record keeping, not desktop everyday quick use.
no support from neat
By Norm
from Sanbornton, NH
Could not use unit, since software would never act up properly, and I do a lot of software. Waited over 24 hours for company response. Did not recognize that I could not activate software, still kept referring to items that I could only get if software was activated. I have never had such a terrible response regarding any hardware or software I have ever purchased. I have attempted to return the unit and hasn't been picked up in 1 1/2 weeks.
An organizers dream
By Jen
from Southeast Ohio
As a church treasurer I handle a ton of receipts every month. This scanner has helped me organize, store and backup all of those important papers, documents and receipts. I love that it gives different types of finance reports and makes my job oh so much easier! The Neat Scanner has many features such as importing from Quickbooks (and other accounting programs, exporting to those same programs, color/B&W scans, and the ability to sync between my computer and another for a very reasonable fee. It was easy to use, easy to learn, and worth every dollar! This was the best office supply purchase I have made all year! (Noticed someone had trouble installing on Windows 7. I use Windows 7 on both computers this scanner is used on and have had ZERO problems.)
Great Purchase!
By Babs
from Clarion, Pa.
I love the Neat Scanner. You can have all of your receipts in one place, organized and a lot less paper to file.

Aloha Kakou
My name is Herb.
I was born above timberline in the Colorado Rocky Mountains, brought up in the foothills and lived many years in the Hawaiian Islands. I've Extensively traveled in the US and as far as Switzerland & South East Asia. I am currently living in Aurora, Colorado. I embrace our technological advancements & a natural way of life. I am fascinated by the potential of being able to grow my own adult stem cells for endurance and performance enhancement without invasive procedures. The Art of longevity is the skill of cellular renewal & regeneration. I am as of this writing a young 72 years old. I have been graced with a joyous life for which I have no regrets. There have been many hills, mountains, valleys & the glorious Ocean of the Hawaiian Islands. (If I can get the picture album upload to work I will share some of their beauties.) I guarantee you not all of my roads have been smooth. In fact many have been very rough as I see parallel common threads in this forum topic. The only way I have survived is, by the grace of God, to see things in their TRUE prospective. I was brought up as a Catholic and after college was allowed to experience the philosophy and mind training exercises of Tibetan Buddhism and the ancient (64 BC unbroken transmission) primal Hawaiian spirituality. The promulgation of Adult Stem Cells seems to be one of the keys to be able to witness many additional decades using the same body. There was an intriguing article on Page 51 in the August 2011 Popular Science Magazine whose teaser was: "Why You'll Live to 150"; Titled: "The Man Who Would Stop Time." The author is giving a great introduction to one of the tools of longevity that defeats the planned obsolescence built into the Human Body. Another element is spicing up our release of our own Adult Stem Cells to keep us recovering, repaired and renewed at a cellular level. My sincere wishes and constant prayer is for us all to have a wonderful happy, joyous and healthy long life on this paradise of Planet Earth. Aloha & Happy Trails to All Adult Stem Cells are The Fountain of Youth Last edited by esp; 08-09-2011 at 03:15 AM. Reason: final addition |
Hello Herb and welcome to Soulforce. You've tranveled many roads and very interesting ones at that. I have been in Colorado (Denver, Colorado Springs, and near the Colorado-New Mexico border) and I must say that it's a beautiful state.

AT&T said earlier this week that it will add a new administrative fee to each of its wireless subscribers' monthly bills. The fee is only $0.61, which doesn't sound like much, and an AT&T spokesperson was quick to point out to several news sites that this new fee is lower than similar fees charged by rival carriers. Subscribers were still outraged. Now that the shouting has died down a bit, however, people are looking for a batter explanation for the new charge they'll see each month. According to one industry watcher, that explanation couldn't be simpler: "Because they can." "Why would AT&T do this? Because they can, and it is all in the pricing strategy," Joe Hoffman, principal analyst at ABI Research

To be holy is to be pure—innocent in all you say and do, having no hidden motives, wronging no one. It is to be as openhearted as a little child and transparent in spirit as the crystal sea before the throne. more...
To be holy is to be a keeper of all promises and a restorer of all good things. Holiness is the foundation of all right relationships and the standard for all actions of all people at all times. Holiness does not grant a different standard for anyone at any level of knowledge, age or capability. All people and all nations are accountable for living in a spirit of holiness at all times and in all ways. All nations and every individual will be judged by this one standard of holiness--there is no alternative, otherwise God would be subject to the whims of the nations as their different and conflicting doctrines of justice rise and fall. This means that God will not judge the communists by their collective utilitarian doctrines nor will he judge the west by its individualistic doctrines of human rights. He will hold the judges of the earth accountable to holiness in every decision they ever made throughout all human history. Holiness brings forth righteousness in the land. Holiness separates you and the nation from all wickedness of spirit. In contrast, the secular doctrines of human rights and of utilitarianism justify and greatly expand wickedness of spirit. This means that holiness is the means of learning moral truth and achieving pure motives. |

Millicent Atkins, the woman who donated $15 million to Northern State University in her will, is remembered by her neighbors in Columbia as polite, but always a very private person.
An only child, she never married or had children. Atkins died July 25 at age 93.
"She was a good businesswoman," said Connie Dennert, 77, who knew Atkins for many years. "She had few close friends, but I never heard of anybody who didn't like her."
She described Atkins as a bit eccentric.
"People knew she was wealthy because she owned about 28 quarters of land, but she never spent much money," she said.
Atkins lived in a modest apartment and did not drive a fancy car.
"She was not extravagant with anything," she said. "She wore old-grandma-type shoes with anklets. You'd think she never had a penny."
Although frugal, she would spend money on things she valued, such as her UCC Congregational Church in Columbia, Dennert said.
"If the church needed anything, she would just write a check," said Dennert, a longtime member of the congregation.
Dennert said that the church is one of the major beneficiaries in the will.
Ken Daly, a retired Columbia-area farmer, said Atkins was a private person.
"She always kept to herself," he said. "She was all business. She didn't have any hobbies that I knew of, except she had an interest in Brown County history."
Atkins inherited land from her father, Fred Atkins, who was a very successful farmer and businessman. She acquired more after his death.
"She was a meek lady," said Karen Daly, Ken's wife. "You would never know that she owned half the county."
Atkins owned 4,127 acres of land in 22 parcels, according to the 2011 Brown County Plat Book.
"She owned prime farm land," Ken Daly said. "I don't think she owned any pasture."
Stan Carlson, 87, said he rented land from her for 65 years.
He knew Fred Atkins, her father, whom he described as a businessman first and a farmer second.
"He always had hired hands," he said. "He had a stockyard in Columbia and used his money to buy land."
Fred Atkins bought land during the Great Depression when other people didn't have any money. Fred, like his daughter, didn't spend any money, he said.
Carlson said Millicent Atkins always took an interest in his crops and would ask intelligent questions about them.
Atkins went to Northern Normal to be a teacher and later to the University of Minnesota. The University of Minnesota is also a major beneficiary in the will, Carlson said.
While Atkins taught school for a short time, she was too shy to interact with students all day, he said. She was very close to her father, and they both liked business, he said. They were also both staunch Republicans, he said.
"She didn't want to get too friendly with anybody," he said. "She grew up alone and just stayed alone."
Carlson said Atkins always treated him fairly as a renter.
"She was a nice lady, a fair lady," he said. "She always treated me well."

Innocence of Muslims, previously called Innocence of Bin Laden (working title: Desert Warrior. YouTube titles it as The Real Life of Muhammad and Muhammad Movie Trailer), is an amateur 2012 film that disparages Islam and its prophet Muhammad. My question is, is it historically accurate?

(From the Logical case for anti-America sentiments topic).
The myths and the realities ... a learning experience for me because I have not looked at the situation before and am making no intellectual pretensions about these roughly assembled notes.
My position would be unapologetically pro self-determination and self-sovereignty ... but that there is no point me picking a fight if they were not able to nor going to back me.
If I was Okinawan, I would be anti-bases.
I strongly doubt it.
The figures * I read are:
Tourist revenue is 16%Base revenue is 8% (some say 5%��)98% of 5,000,000 tourist are from the mainland.
(I would accept this issue is new to me and so that needs qualifying. Average individual income derived from bases is estimated to be 10%)
Extract from that:
a) the long-term social, cultural and environmental costs (say -4%)
Add back
b) the likely existence of a large J-SDF base in its place, say +4%Plus an increase in J-SDF families, say +1%
It would not be hard to see that 'USA Out' could be made to balance or have little economic impact.
And it would lower the rape case and crime statistics ... both recorded and unrecorded and unprosecuted.
In fact, the Japanese Communist Party calculated that the value of the bases was 420.7 billion yen and the return of all U.S. bases in Okinawa would bring about 2.2 times economic benefits (915.6 billion yen) to Okinawa and demanded that the government make efforts to get these U.S. base sites back to Japan.
Reading further ... one can immediately debunk the myths of the bases being good for the island.
It suggests to me that the money that went into Okinawa did not end up with the Okinawans but the usual depositories such as the large construction and infrastructure companies. Further more, the "leakage", income leaving the island, on tourist spending is around 40% which if plugged and kept on the islands could further balance the economy.Its nearly 5 trillion Yen investment in the years 1972 - 1996, largely in the form of public works, has done little to create a basis for sustainable development in Japan's poorest prefectrue. Quite the contrary. The agriculture and fishery economy, the distinctive biological and zoological endownment, and Okinawan society have suffered vast social, economic and ecological damage precisely as a result of Japanese-financed construction.
Okinawa Citizens, US Bases, and the Security of Asia - Economic and Political Weekly
The tourism industry employs many Okinawans, but only rarely in higher-echelon jobs. Most of that industry's profits go to corporations based elsewhere in Japan.
The manufacturing/industrial sector is poorly developed. If the Okinawans were smart (which they are), or at least removed from under the thumb of Tokyo and freed from its bureaucratic bindings, they could replace the US military with some other international presence like a int. university, a proper Free Trade Zone and trade centers inviting more varied foreign investment.
In 1879, Japan forcibly annexed the Ryukyu Kingdom. The main reason for Japan's takeover was the islands' geographic importance for military purposes. Okinawans became second-class citizens within Japan. Some have even argued that Okinawa was in fact Japan's first colony.
In the 1880s, Japan's government was willing to cede part of the Ryukyu Islands to China in return for commercial considerations and even signed a treaty to this effect, but it ultimately failed to gain ratification from the Qing court. Following Japan's defeat in the Second World War, an agreement in 1947 was made with the American Occupation forces that, in return for a short occupation of the mainland, the US could retain possession of Okinawa Prefecture ... indefinitely.
During WWII approximately 20% of the civilian population died (estimated civilian casualties of 90,000 to 150,000), most of the island's infrastructure, historical and cultural assets were destroyed. It was, at the time, largely an undeveloped sub-tropic agricultural society with its own unique culture.
As a result, Okinawa Prefecture was under US military control from 1945-1972. These and many other events belie the Japanese government's claim that it regards Okinawa to be an integral part of the homeland. Between 1945 and 1950, the Americans occupied what Okinawan land they wanted, regardless of whether it had been publicly or privately owned.
Okinawa remains Japan's poorest prefecture, with a per capita income level approximately 70% of the Japanese mainland average and twice unemployment. Post WWII, it has been remade as a service economy, largely serving the bases.
Okinawa Prefecture comprises only 0.6% of the whole Japanese territory and yet is home to 78% of the US Military installations in Japan (20% of the best land of the mainland). Much of the land was forcibly taken from residents. 40% of people who live in the Kadena town think that having military bases in their town is not be a plus for them, only 16% of people do.
The recent development is having a detrimental effect on the environment. Its coral reefs are dying and beaches are being spoilt. Over-fishing has led to the decline of that industry. Highly carcinogenic materials (fuels, oils, solvents, heavy metals and DU rounds) are regularly released during military operations and the people suffer deafening noise from low-flying military aircraft.
Dozens of barrels of the toxic defoliant Agent Orange were buried in the late 1960s beneath what is now a busy neighborhood in the central Okinawa Island town of Chatan, near Araha Beach.
Public works ill-suited to the environment of Okinawa have resulted in the widespread destruction of Okinawa�fs mountains, rivers, and sea.
Under the Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA, Article 4), the U.S. is not responsible for environmental clean-up of land or water and host communities are not adequate provided with information on the extent of military contamination.
The islands are home to the worst kept "secret" nuclear weapons.

A man, described by New Orleans police as a career criminal, was arrested Wednesday in connection with a carjacking and attempted murder that happened in October.
Byron Johnson, 20, was found in his home in the 8800 block of Gervais Street.
Police said Johnson shot a 51-year-old man as he sat in his driveway in the 3400 block of Camp Street on Oct. 2.
As the victim was bleeding from the gunshot wound to the chest, detectives said, Johnson and two others went into the man's home, stole several items and took the man's vehicle.
No witnesses came forward, police said. Instead, detectives relied on forensic evidence to link Johnson to the crime.
Several of the victim's stolen items were found in Johnson's home, police said.
Johnson was arrested on a charge of attempted first-degree murder, aggravated burglary, armed robbery, possession of stolen property and auto theft.
Police said other arrests are imminent in this case.
However, this isn't Johnson's first run-in with the law in terms of arrests or convictions.
According to the New Orleans Police Department, Johnson has had 12 felony arrests, 10 misdemeanor arrests and was on probation on charges of illegal carrying of a weapon from June 2011 through December 2012.

LARAMIE — Simply returning all 10 players from a year ago suggested to University of Wyoming Cowgirls coach Joe Legerski that his team would be better offensively.
But this good?
Probably not even the UW women's basketball coach with the most wins in team history saw this coming.
Through the first month of nonconference play, the Cowgirls are averaging 71.0 points a game, which tops all Mountain West teams. Wyoming is also first in scoring margin (plus 15.7), field goal percentage (44.9) and 3-point field goal percentage (40.8).
The Cowgirls have four players among the top 12 in the MW in scoring and the top two shooters in the league.
It has helped UW to a 5-1 start heading into this weekend's northern road trip to Montana on Thursday and Montana State on Saturday.
"At the start of the year in practice, we knew we could score," Legerski tells the Laramie Boomerang (http://bit.ly/QFb4A4). "I was worried that our defense on the flip side was the reason we were scoring. It's nice to be able to play other teams and find out we're pretty strong offensively. And just the comfort level of this team this year, they know what to expect.
"They want to go out and prove they're better than what they did a year ago. And they are better."
Last year, Wyoming averaged 58.7 points while finding themselves, especially early on.
This season, the Cowgirls have had no such problem locating an offense.
Senior Chaundra Sewell leads the team in scoring at 13.5 points a game, with sophomore Kaitlyn Mileto right behind at 13.3, sophomore Kayla Woodward at 12.0 and senior Ashley Sickles at 11.7.
Each of the four has taken turns leading the Cowgirls in scoring.
Sewell also leads the team and the MW in field goal shooting at 57.1 percent.
Mileto is second in the league at 50.8 and No. 2 in 3-point shooting at 57.7 percent. Mileto's 3-point shooting also ranks her No. 7 in the nation. Woodward ranks seventh in the MW at 37.0 percent while Sickles is ninth at 33.3.
"We're difficult to guard because Kaitlyn and Kayla can really shoot it from the perimeter," Legerski said. "And Ashley is the same way, a player who can step out and put a lot of pressure on people from 3-point range."
And when the Cowgirls do miss, there's a pretty good chance they'll get the rebound and score with that.
UW is averaging 14.5 offensive rebounds a game and is third in the MW in overall rebounding at 43.5 per game.

Campus NewsWestminster Student Turns Asthma Struggle into Award-Winning Medical DeviceTweetWestminster's Chris Ciancone and his U of U teammates win University of Utah's "Bench-to-Bedside" Medical Device Competition SALT LAKE CITY – Westminster marketing student, Chris Ciancone, has always dreamed of climbing Mount Kilmanjaro, but asthma has kept the 24 year old from seriously considering the nearly 20,000-foot ascent—until now. Ciancone and his teammates from the University of Utah recently took top honors in the University of Utah's Bench to Bedside Medical Device Competition winning the grand prize of $15,000 for "Best Overall Device," as well as a $5,000 award for "Best Business." The team designed a novel inhaler device, called LIYENTM, that dramatically improves delivery of Albuterol to the lungs of asthma patients.
Ciancone conceived of the life-saving idea while hospitalized for sinus surgery. As an asthmatic, Ciancone never goes anywhere without an inhaler.
"It was always so embarrassing to pull out my inhaler when I was kid," recalled Ciancone. "I want asthmatics to have something that empowers them to accomplish their goals, not hide."
Ciancone teamed up with three engineering students from the University of Utah, Jamal Abdinor, Camilo Corredor, and Jackson Murphy, to create a prototype of the LIYENTM inhaler. LIYEN is an acronym for the "last inhaler you'll ever need." LIYEN is designed for 70-90% lung deposition of Albuterol compared to the current pMDI inhaler that has only 20% lung deposition.
"Eight million asthma patients in the U.S. use a standard inhaler and many don't even get 20 percent of the medicine because they mess up the hand-breath coordination required to deliver it," said Ciancone. "The LIYEN's patent pending technology eliminates most user error."
Ciancone's team competed against 13 other teams during the 2012 Bench to Bedside Medical Device Competition hosted by the Technology Venture Development at the University of Utah. Students from the U of U's medical school, college of engineering and school of business participated in the competition that focuses on teaching bioengineering and business to learn to work together. Ciancone combined his business model, market research, and presentation skills with the science knowledge of his teammates to create the competition's winning device.
"This is a key example of how important it is to add business skills into the equation of commercializing any innovative product," said Linda Muir, director of the Institute for New Enterprise at Westminster. "We're so proud to support and encourage the entrepreneurial spirit of students like Chris."
Ciancone will use the entrepreneurial skills he gained at Westminster to make LIYEN commercially available to asthma patients. Along with $20,000 in prize money,the Technology Venture Development Office at the University of Utah will also provide resources to Ciancone's team to help facilitate intellectual property rights and licensing options for the new medical device.
"Chris has been involved in the Bench to Bedside competition both years, and has really put in a lot of effort to making his team successful," added Matt Sorensen, Bench to Bedside president." I'm excited to see what comes from his project."
Ciancone, who enjoys rock climbing, plans to focus his career on biomedical development and innovative outdoor products for asthmatics to use at high altitudes. With the LIYENinhaler, Ciancone is one step closer to reaching the top of Kilimanjaro.

Area Congressman Reacts To President's State Of The Union Address
By: Rachel Polansky
Updated: February 13, 2013
"It's something that is probably one of the dumbest and bluntest instruments I've seen in a long time. It severely impacts our community and the state of New York. If it does happen, it would be extremely unfortunate and I'd like to see it undone. We truly need to get our debt under control but to do it this way would absolutely throw our economy in reverse," says Rep. Richard Hanna, Congressman (R) 22nd district.
Sequestration stems from the 2011 impasse between the president and the congressional republicans over raising the nation's debt limit. And these automatic spending cuts will go into effect March 1st if there is no action by congress to stop them.
