Balluff's Intelligent, Energy-Saving Power Supply Device
The semi-potted device with an efficiency rating of 93% is designed for high shock and vibration loads and an extremely long service life of nearly 20 years with a MTBF of 800,000 hours. A key feature: this is the first power supply which can be connected directly to the generator voltage without need for an intermediate transformer. Also completely unique are the optical indicators which display the status and condition of the unit. Since it tracks dynamic loads, it can be operated continuously even under high load conditions. This makes reserves of from 30 to 50% no longer needed.

Oakland County residents are no strangers to winter storms such as the one that struck the region Friday, turning roads into skating rinks, causing fender benders and canceling hundreds of flights to the Northeast area of New York, Massachusetts and Maine where up to three feet of snow is possible by the end of the weekend.
A blizzard is defined as a violent snowstorm with winds blowing at a minimum speed of 35 miles per hour and visibility of less than one-quarter mile for three hours.
The worst 10 snowstorm in Detroit history, according to the National Weather Service, include:
1. April 6, 1886, 24.5 inches. Accompanying winds caused drifts up to 12 feet high in some places. All forms of transportation in Southeast Michigan were halted.
2. Dec. 1-2, 1974, 19.2 inches, 27 dead, including 22 from heart attacks from shoveling. Waterford Township postmaster Gary DeVar who owned a four-wheel-drive vehicle responded to media pleas and took a Clarkston woman to receive kidney dialysis. He waited until after her treatment and then took her home.
In contrast, Dearborn police refused a call from a man who wanted them to put snow tires on his car for him. However, they did assist a man whose vehicle had ran out of gas and he had suffered frostbite. They took him to hospital for assistance.
Schools closed to the delight of children and Pontiac Motors, Fisher Body and General Motors Truck & Coach closed due to lack of workers. The Oakland County Sheriff's Deputies used snowmobiles to deliver three women in labor to their hospitals.
3. Jan. 26-27, 1978 — 19 inches.
4. March 4-5, 1900 — 16.1
5. Jan. 31-Feb 1, 1878 — 15.7 inches. Continued...
6. Feb. 28-March 1, 1900 — 14 inches.
7. Feb. 28-March 1, 1875 — 14 inches.
8. Dec. 18-19, 1929 — 13.8 inches.
9. Feb. 12-13, 1884 — 12.8 inches.
10. Feb. 19, 1900 — 12.6 inches.
The largest seasonal snowfall came in the winter of 1925-26 when a total of 78 inches — more than double the average 41.3 inches — fell.
Ice storms have also caused severe disruption to Oakland County residents.
An ice storm on April 9, 1979 left seven dead and 100,000 without power. On Jan. 3, 1985, 200,000 lost power.

Clifton William (C.W.) Mangrum, age 69, passed away on January 11, 2013 in his home in Durant, OK after a six year battle with Parkinson's disease and Lewy Body Dementia. He was born on August 13, 1943 in Del Rio, Texas to Harvest Argent "Gent" Mangrum and Amelia Louise "Doolie" McBryde Mangrum. He married Faye Gothard, January 1, 1976 in Lone Grove, OK. They have three children: Aprill Jo Raines (Durant), Leslie Faith Mangrum (Salina, KS), and Paul Dane Gothard Mangrum (Norman, OK). They also have two sons-in-law: William David Raines (Durant) and Philip Scott Lee (Salina, KS) and three grandchildren, Braden Alexander, Lydia Monet, and Sophie Jo Raines (Durant).
For anyone who knew C.W., you know that his family was the most important part of his life and he was dedicated to them completely. He was involved in his children's school and church activities. He attended every speech and music program at Durant High School for 25 years. He served as a sponsor for many student trips including debate tournaments at Boston and band trips to Washington D.C. He was a member of the Pit Crew moving equipment on and off the football field for the Durant band's half time show. He was there for every part of his children's lives. As his illness robbed him of many things including his words and voice, it did not rob him of his love and awareness of his family. He knew them to his last breath.
CW came to Healdton, Oklahoma before he started the first grade and graduated from there in 1961. He graduated from Southeastern Oklahoma State University in 1966 with his BA in Speech, the University of Central Oklahoma in 1974 with M. Ed. in Speech and University of North Texas in 1993 with his Ph.D. in College Teaching. While attending SE as a student, C.W. debated for the Forensics Team. After his graduation, he became the debate coach for Charles Page High School in Sands Springs, Oklahoma from 1966-1970. He coached debate at SE from 1970-1977. He took four teams from SE to the National Debate Tournaments.
C.W. also began teaching speech classes at SE in 1970 and taught in the Communication Department until 2000. In 1974, C. W. became chair of the Speech and Theatre Department at SE and also stayed in this position until 2000. During his teaching career, he taught and influenced thousands of students. He taught the speech methods class to future teachers and served as teaching supervisor for speech majors. He also taught classes for all elementary education majors. He was especially proud to conduct debate workshops for the Durant Middle School.
In 1998-1999, C. W. became Interim Dean of the School of Arts and Letters at SE while remaining chair and professor in the Communication and Theatre Department. He was the Dean of the School of Arts and Sciences from 1999 to 2008. During his career as an administrator, he mentored and impacted the lives of hundreds of faculty and colleagues. He retired July 31, 2008, after a career that spanned 45 years at Southeastern as student, debate coach, faculty, and administrator. He received the Distinguished Former Faculty Award in 2009. The Regional University System of Oklahoma bestowed upon him the honorary title of "Dean Emeritus, School of Arts and Sciences,'' and "Professor of Communication and Theatre Emeritus.'' In this role, he continued being a part of the Tom Houston Debate Reception at Homecoming and supporting students of Southeastern as well as enjoying fellow retirees.
C.W. was a member of the Fairview Baptist Church for many years and taught Sunday school to young adults and youth. He was a church bus driver and picked up kids all over Durant and brought them to church. Later, he was a member and deacon of the First Baptist Church in Durant. There, he again taught Sunday school to young adults and children. He especially enjoyed teaching the four year olds. He also hosted youth church groups in his home such as Disciple Now Weekend. He was a member and President of the Kiwanis Club in Durant.
More recently, C. W. was a resident at the Sterling House Assisted Living in Durant from July 2011 until November 2012. There he once again was a tremendous influence on his new group of friends. The residents and their families all have stories to tell about how much they enjoyed him and his speeches in the dining hall.
He is preceded in death by his parents and sisters, Barbara Mangrum and Janette Ellis.
Survivors include his wife, children, grandchildren, and sister Linda Jackson, Lubbock, TX.
Family Hour will be held at the Visual and Performing Arts Center (VPAC) at Southeastern, January 18, 2013 at 7:00 PM. Memorial Service is January 19, 2013 at 2:00 PM at the First Baptist Church, Durant, OK. It will be officiated by Rev. Kris Steele, Rev. Mark Christian, and Rev. James Robinson. A private burial will be at Cedarlawn Memorial Park Cemetery, Sherman, TX following the memorial service. Honorary Pall Bearers are Dell McLain, Shannon McCraw, Riley Risso Coker, Kirk Ashton, Rodger Biles, Gary Varner, and Rodney Heggy.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests contribution to the "Drs. C.W. and Faye Mangrum Scholarship" The Southeastern Foundation at Southeastern Oklahoma State University.
Family and friends may send online condolences and view tributes at www.holmescoffeymurray.com.
Services are under the direction of Holmes-Coffey-Murray Funeral Home, Durant, Oklahoma.

why ads?The Infiniti FX35 becomes the FX37 for 2013, as a more advanced, more powerful and more efficient 3.7-liter V6 replaces the former 3.5. A new Moving Object Detection capability is added to the Around View Monitor system. And a Limited Edition trim (550 units) of the FX37 is also available.
For 2012 the Infiniti FX has a new front grille and fascia inspired, we're told, by Infiniti's Essence Concept. There's a new FX35 Limited Edition, built atop the FX35 all-wheel drive (AWD) platform; and new wheel designs, a new color and a slight remixing of option packages sum up the substantive changes for this model year.
Infiniti's FX35 and FX45 crossover SUVs actually look more like sports cars than light-duty trucks. The racy FX twins definitely know how to stand out in a crowd, but their flashy design sometimes places form over function. The rear hatch opening, for example, is rather small and there is not much cargo space behind the second-row seats. Narrow side glass and a small rear window create large blind spots, although the standard RearView Monitor helps alleviate this concern. If you can live with these minor shortcomings, the FXs' impressive handling and brutally quick acceleration make them the ideal performance crossovers, with expressive exteriors that can definitely turn heads.

In the US, perhaps. But US != The whole world. Neither does the UK (anymore). They may be somewhat ubiquitous in a small number of countries... but they're far, far from ubiquitous in many more countries. Then there is the question of whether these are PCs capable of gaming (at the level of an XBox or whathaveyou).
PCs are far, far from ubiquitous enough for the question "Who doesn't own a PC?" to be a rhetorical one.

The rise of smartphones and tablets has ushered in a huge shift in how consumers engage with brands.
These changes have fundamentally altered the path to purchase, which used to be a linear process, into a much broader mix of browsing and discovery, with social recommendations and easier access to information driving the online buying process.
Most notably, this shift is changing the way IT and Marketing, two divisions that have often worked in silos, must operate in response.
Underscoring the importance of these changes, Gartner recently reported that future ecommerce success depends on improving the customer experience, with top CIOs now ranking it as the largest opportunity to implement technology in driving business innovation.

I was asked a great question recently whilst at a breakfast networking event hosted by Clearwater LLP, a corporate finance advisory firm, who had been giving everyone an insight in to the previous 12 months' M&A activities in the retail market.
We heard about the winners and losers, and Gareth Iley regaled us with possibly the most entertaining skirting board anecdote I've heard, illustrating the rise of the niche players.
Over coffee afterwards, he asked me a really interesting question, being: "What makes a good ecommerce business?"
I thought it would be a fun question to pose here, and I'll start the ball rolling with my instinctive answer to him at the time.

Could multichannel or omnichannel strategies actually hold back a successful business? In this post I'll discuss the problems for retailers.
As the barriers to publishing have dropped, the amount of bad advice has increased. I imagine you've been told in numerous articles, inforgraphics and presentations that multi or omnichannel is the way forward.
Truth is, the pursuit of omnichannel status could actually be holding your business back. Time to think again. Or is it?

First the $1 trillion part: According to a recent report from eMarketer, ecommerce topped the trillion-dollar mark for the first time in 2012.
This was not a one-time fluke, or even something unexpected, on the contrary, this number is expected to rise: The National Retail Federation and Shop.org both reported that eRetail spending grew by 15% over 2012.
ComScore recently reported that ecommerce represented 10% of all discretionary dollars spent in 2012 and that web sales for 2013 are expected to increase from 9 to 12%
How can you get your slice? Truly, a trillion dollar question. We have prepared some tips that can help you on your way to having your pie and eating it as well.

The global edition of our Internet Statistics Compendium saw a bumper update this month, collecting some of the most interesting freely accessible data published about all things digital – including social media, mobile and ecommerce.
One area which I think is particularly deserving of our analytical curiosity is multichannel commerce, and PwC's recent report on the subject is excellent reading at a time when shopping across offline and online internationally is still a relatively mysterious beast.

A new Yahoo!7 survey has revealed that social media is playing an increasingly larger role in influencing the television viewing habits of Australians.
The second annual Social TV Survey polled more than 7,000 online Australians late last year and found that almost half of the respondents (43%) used social media while watching television.

Travellers from the Asia-Pacific region are leading the way when it comes to social media usage, with over 70% of APAC travellers saying they used the channel to gain inspiration for at least one element of a recent trip, compared to only 51% globally.
These figures come from recent research, the Digital Index: Travel and Tourism Study, which is based around the responses of 4,600 people from 13 different countries.
The report examines how digital technologies have contributed to fundamental changes in the tourism industry, and specifically highlights findings that demonstrate APAC respondents are ahead of average in terms of digital usage.

Lawsuit over Singer closure back in court in Jan.
ROCKFORD – A lawsuit over the closure of the Singer Mental Health Center in Rockford is scheduled to return to court in January.
WNIJ Radio reports that the two sides were in court Thursday. Attorneys representing the state of Illinois filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit, which was brought by the Illinois Nurses Association.
The union is strongly opposing the decision to close the facility last month. It's seeking judicial review of the process to grant a closure permit.

Touch 'Em All: D-backs drop 2 of 3 to Bucs
Originally published: Apr 18, 2012 - 4:44 pm
From Triple Crown contender, all the way to the disabled list, all with one big THUD.
If Chris Young's 2012 season were a comic book, the first few pages would have lots of great exclamations� BANG, BOOM, SMACK, HOME RUN, to name a few. But then there would come a THUD.
That thud came in the 4th inning of Tuesday's loss to the Pirates, and it was the sound of Chris Young hitting the left field wall.
The thud had two real meanings. Physically; it was Chris Young making a great catch while slamming into the wall, hurting his shoulder, and landing him on the DL. And metaphorically; it was Chris Young's hot start to the season, a hot start that saw him in the triple crown running early on, coming to a screeching halt.
Obviously this is a huge hit to Chris Young's monster season-in-the-making, however, it's an even bigger hit to a Diamondbacks team that was riding on Chris Young's shoulders to this point in the season.
Without CY's bat for 15 days, a period when the D-Backs may also be without Justin Upton, the Snakes will turn to Jason Kubel, Miguel Montero and Paul Goldschmidt to be major sources of run production.
The Diamondbacks are also going to have to rely on a few younger players to join the major league squad and perform. D-Backs infielder John McDonald told me on Tuesday that he expects any minor league call-ups to fit right in the clubhouse. "That's what we have spring training for," he said. "You get to know those guys and you get a chance to work with them."
One thing's for sure: if the Diamondbacks want to keep in close contention with the Dodgers (I can't believe I'm saying that either) early in the season, a few people are going to have to step up and have some comic book moments of their own.
Series Report Card
Record: C- Oh the parity of baseball� Joe Saunders wins, Ian Kennedy pitches poorly, Bryan Shaw gives up an odd, eventually game-winning, bloop single and John McDonald hits a home run. All that considered, this was still a 3-game home series with the Pirates - you can't lose two of three! If this was NFL Primetime I might say C'mon Man! But it's not, so I won't.
Offense: B- All things considered, the offense looked pretty good over the first two games. Jason Kubel looks like he is finally starting to get things going, which is a great sign with the team's current injury situation. I don't understand why Goldschmidt isn't consistently in at first base. If he's your everyday first basemen, then play him like one.
Defense: B+ The defense turned three double plays in this series, all on Wednesday. Pollock looked good in center in CY's stead, Kubel looks comfy in right with Upton out. Overall, this was a pretty sound series for the Snakes defensively.
Pitching: B+ In a series against the Pirates that started with Joe Saunders getting the win after a very nice outing, you might have expected the D-Backs to sweep with Kennedy and Hudson going the next two days. If you did, you were incorrect, as Ian Kennedy "knew in the 1st inning that [he] didn't have it and just tried to battle through," on Tuesday. However, with everything that happened on Tuesday, Kennedy's poor performance was the least thing to be concerned with. Hudson pitched well enough for the win on Wednesday, but you can't expect to win with only one run of support behind you.
Managing: B+ As I said earlier, I question why Paul Goldschmidt, the "everyday first baseman," isn't playing as much as I feel he should be. I'm sure Gibson has a very good explanation, but I'd like to see Goldy's bat in the lineup, especially when CY and J-Up are out.
Series Awards
Play of the Series: This is the play of the series for so many reasons, first because it was simply an amazing catch, and second because it is the play that people from remember this series; the play that effectively ended Chris Young's hot start to the 2012 campaign. If you haven't figured it out already the play I'm talking about is Chris Young's diving catch against the wall in left center in the 4th inning on Tuesday that saved extra bases, but will cost CY a DL stint.
*Runner-Up for Play of the Series Every so often, if there is an extra play that is worth mentioning, I'll put a runner-up in this category. This series' runner-up was Ryan Roberts' diving catch on a pop- up bunt from Alex Presley in the 7th inning on Tuesday. There are not too many third basemen in baseball who are quick enough to make that play.
Villain of the Series: The Unsung Hero award takes a short hiatus, as the Villan Award is introduced. This series' villain is none other than Andrew McCutchen. He really did a lot of damage to the D-Backs, and was also the thorn in the side of Ian Kennedy on Tuesday. He went 7-for-12 with 3 runs scored and 1 RBI in the series.
Kirk Gibson Quote of the Series: "Obviously he hit the wall hard. It was a great catch. He got crushed." -On Chris Young's catch into the wall on Tuesday.
Player of the Series: This series' winner of the POTS award is Jason Kubel. I know he didn't have a great series by any means, but no one on the D-Backs really did, and I started to see some life come out of his bat on Tuesday and Wednesday, and I think that makes him worthy of this award.
The "Any Other Part of the Ballpark" Award: That's right, this award is back and mainly because of Jason Kubel's RBI double on Tuesday. The ball hit about a foot under the line in left center, and literally anywhere else in the park it would've been a no-doubter. It would've gotten Kubel more support from the fans too.
Best Moment of the Series: For me, the best moment of this series was seeing it end. Honestly, this was a very bad series for the D-Backs when you look at it. Not only did they drop two of three to the Pirates, they also lost Chris Young and wasted a very good start by Daniel Hudson on Wednesday. I'd just like to move on.
And now� To introduce a new segment that will make a few appearances over the course of the season�
If you would've told me ______ in March, I would've said ______.
If you would've told me John McDonald would hit a HR before Justin Upton:
Not only would I have started laughing maniacally in your face, I probably would have gone as far as to question your knowledge of baseball and wonder as to whether you had ever watched a game. Luckily for me, I don't know anyone who is psychic, so that never happened.
If you would've told me Joe Saunders would be leading the Majors in ERA:
Again, I probably would have started to chuckle, but I would've tried to reason it out. Joe Saunders must have pitched 2 games against a minor league team. In reality it's close enough, he's pitched against the Padres and Pirates.
If you would've told me JJ Putz, Daniel Hudson and Josh Collmenter would have the three highest ERAs on the team:
I probably would have been in disagreement. Sure, I may have expected that from Collmenter, I may have even expected a little regression from Hudson, but Putz? He's supposed to be the rock. He does have 4 saves, but he has been hittable this year, which is two letters less than what he was last year (that would be unhittable).
The Road Ahead
The Diamondbacks continue their home stand as they start a string of 17 straight games against the NL East, starting with a four-game set against the Braves at Chase this week. Watch Josh Collmenter's start in the opener. With a bad outing he could end up in Triple-A and Trevor Bauer could force his way into the rotation. That's complete speculation, but if he pitches poorly again, it should happen.

Redbill: From Pearls to Peace — The Life and Times of A Remarkable Lugger
by Kate Lance
Price $29.95
- About the Book
Once there were hundreds of wooden ketches like Redbill fishing for pearlshell in the old north-west, but none of them had her amazing gift for survival. Redbill lived through the great days of Broome pearling, and when war came to Darwin she was there as bombs began to fall. In Papua she hunted crocodiles and carried cargo for a tribe reclaiming its lost arts. As Redbill of Greenpeace she sailed the South Pacific to defy the French. She helped the refugees of East Timor, she carried troubled teenagers through the rough waters of Bass Strait and she found the way home for a young Aboriginal man. Over a century Redbill coped with a lot — and then she ran into Rosita, the most powerful tropical cyclone to strike Broome in ninety years …
Like many before her, author Kate Lance fell for the Redbill's gentle magic, and in this richly illustrated book she traces the many lives of a most remarkable vessel.

Ferrero-Waldner: "Austria and the Ukraine in Europe"
Check against delivery !
"Austria and the Ukraine in Europe"
Brief address by the Austrian Federal Minister for Foreign Affairs
University of Lvov
5 June, 2003
Your Magnificence,
Members of the academic senate,
Dear students,
It is a pleasure for me to speak to you today in this venerable university as the first Austrian foreign minister to visit Lvov. Your university is named after the famous poet Ivan Franko, who contributed so substantially to shaping the national identity of the Ukraine. Ivan Franko, by the way, started his scientific career at the University of Vienna, which is yet another example of the close mutual historic ties between the Ukraine and Austria.
This leads me to the topic of my brief address. Austria and the Ukraine are two states which are deeply rooted in Europe. At the time of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy with its nine official languages, twelve ethnic groups and a religious diversity which on the territory of today's Ukraine included the Greek-Catholic, the Orthodox and the Mosaic faith, something like a "Small Europe" already existed. After joining the European Union in 1995 the Republic of Austria has now become an integral part of a larger Europe. So far membership in the EU has been a blessing for Austria, since it represented an enormous impetus for the country's democratic political, economic and social developments. Consistent approximation to the European Union could also enable the Ukraine to benefit at some point from such a gigantic thrust, which opens the structures of a country, bringing in a breath of fresh air and making it fit for international competition.
However, EU membership did not just fall into Austria's lap. After we sent the application for membership - the famous letter - to Brussels back in 1989, it was to take another five years until the negotiations with the EU were successfully completed. During these negotiations Austria had to overcome numerous critical milestones, for instance in the fields of heavy-vehicle transit and agriculture. There it also became clear that the EU never gives anything away for free, and that the road to success is paved with consistent negotiations underpinned by positions based on well-founded facts. Based on the experience Austria gathered during these years I can give you one piece of advice: frustrations emerging in the course of tough negotiations with the EU must simply be swallowed. This also holds true for the phase of approximation to the EU the Ukraine is in at present. In discussions with the EU it is necessary to keep a cool head and, most importantly, not to dig in one's heels and stick doggedly to exaggerated or unrealistic perspectives.
That the Ukraine, too, has now definitely set out on the long path to "Europe" is a fact of huge importance for European policy, and some may not always have been sufficiently aware of this. The speed at which developments have taken place in the Ukraine since its independence is simply breathtaking. Much of the legacy left over from the Soviet era which initially hampered the country's progress has been overcome, and the Ukraine is already undergoing an active process towards the development of political democracy and a market economy. This is an impressive achievement and it is only logical that the Ukraine is now orienting itself towards European structures.
The Ukraine currently stands at the beginning of the path already taken by the candidate countries who will join the EU in 2004. They also had to set their sights on meeting the "Copenhagen Criteria", which call for a developed democracy, a functioning market economy and the adoption of the EU acquis. The Ukraine now has to start by successfully managing the first concrete phases, such as being granted market economy status by the EU and joining the WTO, and subsequently make its way towards the EU by making concrete progress and covering the individual stages of approximation. In this connection the full realisation of the current Partnership and Cooperation Agreement, which still opens up a lot of potential, will certainly play an important role. In due course, the conclusion of a free trade agreement, as provided for in the Partnership and Cooperation Agreement, will then be possible, provided that the required progress has been made. Once the necessary solid level of integration has been achieved, the Ukraine can set her sights on more distant goals, including an association agreement and eventually also membership in the European Union. The Ukraine's aspirations to move closer to Europe are strongly supported by Austria, and we have also stressed the importance of positioning the Ukraine in Europe in our contacts with the relevant EU bodies.
The regions of the Ukraine formerly known as Galicia and Bukovina are playing a key role in the entire country's approximation to Europe. I am pleased to hear from many that the huge civil achievements made during the almost 150 years of common governmental tradition and the creative diversity of this region have contributed to raising this western Ukrainian region's European awareness to such a level that an almost general move towards Europe is discernible. History, which has linked this region to Europe for many centuries, is coming to life again. Let me take this opportunity to tell you that we Austrians are very appreciative of the positive memory the Galicians hold of the Austrian period and the fact that they have such a liking for us. It is really a pleasurable experience for an Austrian to visit Galicia today.
In the context of our prospering bilateral relations with the Ukraine, Austria is undertaking every effort to assist your country in reaching its huge European goal. I believe that the increasingly dense economic and cultural network we have woven through these relations promotes and communicates European agendas and provides an additional impetus for the increasing pace of the general orientation towards Europe. In this context the developments taking place in the Galician regions are playing a particularly significant role. The establishment of an air link between Vienna and Lvov, for instance - incidentally something that already existed back in 1918 - opens up a direct connection to the centre of Europe. In the middle of May Raiffeisenbank Ukraine opened a branch office in Lvov, thus offering the efficient services of a large European bank in the West Ukraine. The large number of activities launched by the Lvov branch of the Austria cooperation office for education, science and culture and the Austria Library in Lvov are bringing Austrian and thus truly European culture to this region. Regional partnerships established between regions in the western Ukraine and Austrian federal provinces - such as those between the region of Lvov and the Province of Styria, the region of Czernowitz and the Province of Carinthia, the region of Trans-Carpathia and the Province of Burgenland, and the region of Ivano-Frankivsk and the Province of Tyrol - are fully in line with the unstoppable trend towards forming regional centres which have grown within the EU in the course of its history.
The enlargement of the European Union in 2004 also represents a huge challenge for the entire Ukraine and particularly those regions bordering the candidate countries. The European Union is aware of the need to open up concrete perspectives to the Ukraine, including a new regulation of its relations and a further rapprochement to the EU. In this connection the New Neighbourhood initiative launched by the European Union certainly represents a solid basis. In contrast to concerns initially voiced by the Ukraine, I believe that it definitely differentiates between the Union's future neighbours and also opens up a wide range of concrete opportunities for cooperation between the Union and the Ukraine. As regards the Ukrainian border regions, concrete problems arising from the enlargement, such as those relating to visas and small-scale cross-border traffic and trade, will have to be tackled and solved in cooperation. Within the European Union Austria will always advocate regulating such issues in a way that takes the concerns of the border regions into consideration.
Concluding, I would like to emphasise once again that this visit to Lvov has been a huge pleasure for me. Today, after the great restoration efforts undertaken over the last few years, your beautiful and elegant city is presenting itself at its best. It is again breathing the flair of a genuine Central European metropolis. Lvov forms an integral part of a Central European reality, which - after the end of a totalitarian regime - is once again under our joint ownership as a great European cultural heritage. May the diverse and prosperous coexistence of peoples and cultures, which has had such a long tradition in this part of Europe, serve as a yardstick for a European renaissance of the Ukraine, in which the Ukraine's Galician regions will certainly play a trailblazing role. Let me assure you once again that Austria will always energetically advocate the Ukraine's cause within the EU.
I thank you for your attention and look forward to a lively discussion.

(Benny Johnson) Florida Pastor Doug Giles has some advice for potential suitors for his two daughters. "Don't think about it"… unless of course you're ready to adhere to some "rules" he puts forth. In a world where many young men are lacking manners, Pastor Giles's old world 'respect my daughter' commandments are a breath of fresh air.
Here are a few highlights:
Commandment I. Thou shall understand that your presence doesn't make me happy. And know this: I've got a PI doing a background check on you at this moment.
Commandment II. Thou had better have a life. I have worked my butt off providing a good life for my daughter; therefore, you better have one, Spanky.
Commandment VI. Thou shall know that our family is old school. Do not even think about approaching me with liberal, hippie, agnostic, atheistic, anti-American or tree-humping bull crap.

Growing up in the 70s/80s, one of my favorite Saturday morning cartoons was "Fat Albert". I always looked forward to watching Albert and the Cosby gang, seeing the challenges they would face and the lessons that they would learn.
Over the years, "Fat Albert" has taken some heat on its portrayal of African Americans. But not much has been said about the title of the cartoon "Fat Albert". Odds are Bill Cosby would not be able to pitch a cartoon with that name now. It's too politically incorrect. No one likes to be called fat.
Confession time: growing up my older brother use to call me "fatty". Yes, "fatty". I wasn't fat. Perhaps a bit "big boned", but never fat. Of course the nickname stuck like flies to shit. Our neighborhood gang often called me "fatty". It sucked…
Not too long ago I asked my brother why he called me "fatty", his answer: "because it was funny". Uhm…no, it wasn't funny. I fucking hated it and him for creating that nickname. It plays with my psyche to this day.
So this takes me to my luscious 2 1/2 year old son and what happened during a recent visit to his pediatrician. My kid is a big, beautiful little boy who has been having trouble sleeping. Turns out, he might have sleep apnea. His pediatrician thinks his tonsils and adenoids are abnormally large. The good news, we are being referred to a specialist.
Then came the not so good news. Toward the end of the visit, she pulled me over to her computer to show me a handy dandy chart.. a chart that tracks my son's growth since birth. I learned that my kid is off the charts for both height and weight. There it was in a spreadaheet… proof that he is a big, big boy.
After the illustration, she got serious and informed me that it's now time to "track what he eats". Those four words hit me like a brick: "Track what he eats". Translation: he's a "fatty" and it's time for a diet!
I was devastated. I quickly explained to her that I can't get my 4 year old to eat anything and I can't stop my 2 year old from overeating. He wants to eat all the time, so there must surely be something wrong with him?
She just looked at me and smiled, "the good news, he's young and you're in control of what he eats."
