Seattle, WA (PRWEB) March 19, 2013
Diet Doc has updated their hCG Diet Cookbook with a number of tastier easy recipes for the best weight loss during low calorie dieting. These recipes are easy to follow and deliver full flavor, offering patients a number of guilt-free food choices without compromising the effectiveness of a prescription diet. The recipes in the updated hCG Diet Cookbook have been successfully integrated into Diet Doc's physician managed prescription hCG diet plans, making the nation's best weight loss easier and healthier than ever.
Diet Doc's prescription diet plans, found to produce the best weight loss are customized for each patient based on individual factors that determine the ability of the patient to lose weight fast. The team of doctors and nutritionists at Diet Doc understands that dieters may find it tough to cope with low calorie diets that often tightly restrict various food groups like those high in carbohydrates and fat. Diet Doc's updated hCG Diet Cookbook contains a number of easy recipes to ensure that dieters never get bored with repetitious food choices, which can lead to dieters cheating on their diets. Unlike other diet plans, the prescription hCG weight loss diet is not extremely restrictive, but nonetheless, patients may find cooking with unfamiliar ingredients challenging initially. The updated Cookbook has a number of easy recipes that go a long way in helping patients follow the diet protocol without losing interest or feeling overwhelmed with new food choices.
President and Founder of Diet Doc, Julie Wright says, "Each of our easy recipes are not only low-glycemic and low carbohydrate, but also great tasting and packed with essential nutrients. Ever one of our easy recipes is in strict accordance with our prescription diets." Diet Doc's nutritionists have been creating and testing easy recipes that are low-fat versions of classic recipes like cabbage rolls, beef stew, and shrimp scampi as well as more exotic recipes like ceviche, jambalaya, and curried shrimp. These dishes that are delicious and simple to make, yet still compatible with Diet Doc's prescription diet have been added to the revised Diet Doc Cookbook. The easy recipes use MCT oil, oil derived from coconuts in dressings, entrees, and desserts. MCT oil is a heart-healthy, fat burning alternative to butter and olive oil, traditional cooking fats that are loaded with calories that are not easy to burn. Additionally, MCT oil is also not as easily stored as fat in the body. This hcg diet cookbook offers much more than boring diet meal plans like salad options or the traditional recipe for grilled chicken, there are delicious salads, dressings, and hearty soups, filling and tasty seafood dinners, beverages, and even desserts along with a wide variety of meat, vegetables, and poultry to choose from. Compatible with the diet guidelines laid down per Kevin Trudeau and Dr. Simeon's hCG protocol, the Cookbook contains more than two hundred recipes created exclusively for phase 2 and phase 3 of the prescription hCG diet plan. Diet Doc's medically supervised diet plan that helps patients experience the best medical weight loss, as much as pound per day, also comes with unlimited clinical support, available 6 days per week.

Cirque du Soleil: Corteo / 04.02.2011
Cirque du Soleil: Corteo
Corteo is an Italian word that describes a parade - in the Cirque du Soleil show, it is a cheerful and festive parade with a Carnival atmosphere, which plays out in the imagination of a clown. He takes the audience with him into a theatrical world full of fun, comedy and spontaneity - to a mysterious place between heaven and earth.
The Cirque du Soleil show, Corteo, which premiered in Montreal in 2005, has already been seen by five million people. It sets the big against the small, the humorous against the tragic and the magic of perfection against the charm of imperfection.
In this way, Corteo presents the wisdom, kindness and strength, as well as the fragility, of the clown. Lyrically playful music carries Corteo through a timeless festival of illusions

Supporters of same sex marriage have declared victory, after voters approved a referendum legalizing same sex marriage.
Governor Martin O'Malley, Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, and several openly gay members of the Maryland legislature spoke to hundreds of supporters this morning.
"This is the civil rights issue of our time," Rawlings-Blake told the crowd.
.As of 1:09 a.m., the Associated Press reported that with 97% of the vote counted, 52% of the votes cast were in favor of the question, 48% opposed.
The vote means Maryland's same sex marriage law will take effect on January 1.
"We're all entitled to our own religious opinions and own religious freedoms, but in terms of our civil laws, they should protect every child equally, and I think that's what the people of Maryland concluded tonight," O'Malley told WBAL News.
O'Malley put same sex marriage legislation at the top of his legislative agenda this year.
Lawmakers spent much of the first two months of the three month session debating the bill. The governor signed it into law in March.
Opponents collected nearly three time the required number of signatures to put the issue before voters this year.
Of the seven statewide ballot questions lawmakers considered Tuesday, O'Malley spent the most time campaigning for this issue, known as Question 6 on the ballot.
O'Malley recorded online campaign videos, donated campaign money, and appeared at a number of events.
He spent Election Day appearing at polling places on behalf of Question 6.
Late in the day, he sent an email to supporters telling them that he noticed opponents of Question 6 were, " working hard to get out the vote. We can still win, but every vote is going to matter."
Kevin Nix, spokesman for Marylanders for Marriage Equality, said O'Malley "has been a leader on the issue."
Opposition to the Question has been led by African American clergy in Baltimore City and Prince George's County who have previously supported O'Malley both as Baltimore mayor and as governor.
Leaders of the Maryland Marriage Alliance, which has led the opposition to Question 6, gathered in Annapolis tonight to watch returns.
O'Malley was expected to join Question 6 supporters after he appears at a rally for supporters for the DREAM Act (Question 4), and a Maryland Democratic Party celebration where Senator Ben Cardin declared victory in his re-election bid.
O'Malley did not attend the Election Night event for supporters of Question 7, the expanded gambling question, which is taking place at National Harbor.
O'Malley did call a special session of the legislature back in August to enable the issue to get on the ballot. O'Malley supported the question, and appeared in a television commercial promoting it.

5 ALIENSMarcusbasher247 | 12/06/2010 | See all Marcusbasher247's reviews (8)This figure is AMAZING, this the classic alien warrior from James Cameron's Awesome movie Aliens! This alien comes with poseable feet, legs, thighs, waist, head, shoulder, forearm, and hands, thats over 20 points of wicked articulation!!!it has a pipe-cleaner tail, which is bendable, quick note: don't try and position it like the picture cos it will break... Its mouth is closed but you can open it and pull out the inner jaw, it is a shame they didnt put a switch in for the inner jaw.But above all, Best figure i ever bought CHEERS PLAY.COM!!! It's a Bargain for 13.95, so hurry, get them before they get you...
5 GREAT!!mrjizzims | 02/03/2010 | See all mrjizzims's reviews (5)if u like the aliens films u will love this figure,the detail on it is amasing,the inner jaw comes out which is cool and u get good poses with it
5 They're coming out of the walls!!!Paulos | 27/02/2010 | See all Paulos's reviews (2)Quality replica figure of the classic horror nightmare that is alien. Looks like one of the alien warriors from the second film: 'Aliens'. It is well detailed and can be made to look great, having quite a few posable limbs and the tail can be bent too. Looks awesome next to a Predator figure.
5 Classic Alienfirewire | 26/03/2009 | See all firewire's reviews (8)If you like your Xenomorphs with lots of detail this is for you.This looks like an 'Aliens' version, rather than the first film. Lots of articulation (including moving inner jaw and bendy tail), good paint highlights & sharp sculpting. Great poses are easily achieved.
4 The ultimate PredatorSpotter5 | 04/03/2010 | See all Spotter5's reviews (1)A fantastically detailed action figure! My only negative (hence the four star rating) is the joints are very stiff in places such as the jaw and the waist. Also, the shoulder joint on mines left shoulder seems to be ceased stuck. You can get great poses out of this, although if you want to stand it on all fours you can't, although it isn't supposed to. (Not spawned from a four legged animal)One last thing, it isn't 7 inches but 9 inches! Great stuff.

Watertown City Council members may decide on Monday night whether ATMs should be placed in City Hall and at the Alex T. Duffy Fairgrounds.
Mayor Jeffrey E. Graham and Councilman Joseph M. Butler Jr. proposed that the ATMs would be convenient for customers paying water bills or traffic tickets at City Court. At the fairgrounds, people attending a concert, youth hockey game or garden show could get some fast cash by using an ATM.
The machines could also be revenue makers for the city, they said.
The council meeting starts at 7 p.m. in the third-floor council chambers of City Hall, 245 Washington St.
On Monday night, the City Council will be asked to approve an agreement with B&S Business Systems, Gouverneur, to place an ATM in each of the two city-owned buildings. The city would then receive $1 of the $3 fee charged for each transaction.
B&S would be responsible for maintaining the machines and keeping them filled with cash.
In other action, council members may consider a $15,000 request for funding to the Jefferson County Historical Society. It would be a $5,000 increase from the current funding amount.
In a June 8 letter, William G. Wood, the historical societys executive director, wrote that the museum would use the additional funding to market the facility and exhibits through brochures, posters and other materials.
Council members also may give final approval for site plans for the 3,500-square-foot bank branch that AmeriCU plans to build at 871 Arsenal St., the site of the former Salvation Army store.
In another resolution, the city also plans to go after past-due city taxes and water and sewer bills from the owner of the apartment building that was destroyed by a May 15 fire at 239 High St.
In a memo to the council, the city will file a claim for a tax lien on the proceeds of a fire insurance policy that owner Ricky E. Frazier has on the apartment building. The citys Code Enforcement Office has condemned the burned building because it is unsafe.
Council members are also expected to endorse a $215,000 grant application by Neighbors of Watertown for the New York Main Street program. The group plans to use the funding to help downtown businesses with facade renovations and create new upper-floor rental units.
The council will also vote on setting a public auction at 6 p.m. July 10 for bicycles and other items at the Metro-Jefferson Public Safety Buildings garage.


text:
An introduction is in order - the following was previously posted on patch.com, but, your author being less then nept - as in inept - as to how it should have been submitted, it ended up in the announcement section under a nom de plume. No more. I intend to follow this blog entry up with another, as I offer some sage advice - or rant, as you might term my terms - about the state of driving. So, on with it.
In the current stage of mass media, it would seem the best place to get out this timely reminder is online, and patch.com, as a local purveyor of local news, would seem a great place to do this.
The topic? The Rules of the Road.
First, bear in mind that the perspective of your dear author is colored by the fact that his learning-to-drive experience was close to the last of those drivers for whom school-based driver's education was part of the high school academic curriculum. In Ohio and beyond, the science and academics of educating drivers, in the last two decades, has been largely reassigned to private concerns and, by some accounts, that's not been a good thing. In fact, there is a slow but growing movement to bring driver's education back into the schools.
As a current participant in driver's education, for and with my own kids, that close proximity has drawn, as it should, a closer bead on just what driver's education has come to be since I was educated in the finer elements of driving by the then Mrs. King - more recently known as Mrs. Campbell - when I took my driver's education courses in the Akron Public School system in the late 1970s. Sadly, I can't say it's all good.
As I'm sure many others have noted, we're daily treated to myriad examples of what can only be described as the erosion of everything related to driving: education, skill, courtesy, rules, manners, and just what should go into managing two or three or more tons of steel and plastic in the form of guided ballistic missiles on the public highways and byways. Distracted drivers - texting, cell phones, makeup, shaving, reading newspapers, operating iPads and smart phones, eating, drinking, basically doing everything but concentrating on the task at hand (that would be driving) - are the bane of the roadways and, unfortunately, steadily growing trends. With more and more vehicles coming from manufacturers with direct technology links and ever-larger touch-screen interfaces, the urge to distraction will only become greater.
Combine the age of distracted driving with the fact that, for most on the road, driver's education has either been through for-profit enterprises, the efforts of well-meaning parents, or the passage of time alone. That's right: under Ohio law, reach age 18 and you can take the Ohio driver's license exam without ever having taken any form of actual driving education of any kind. That's an issue for the Ohio General Assembly to take up.
Now, onto the rules of the road. Putting aside the rant above - and it is most assurecly a rant - it would appear that many drivers just don't know, or refuse to observe or obey, the rules of the road. Simple rules. Easy rules. Example: Stop signs. They mean, simply, "Stop". It's not an optional stop; it's not a rolling, roll-through stop, it's a S-T-O-P, in capital letters.
The same may be said of traffic signals - it would seem many drivers are deeming them simply optional. While we used to learn "Red means stop, yellow means wait, and green means go, go, go", for many now, red means, if no one's looking, just drive on through - after all, you're way more important than what that red light is trying to make you do. There seems to be some collective idea that the later the hour, the more you can simply ignore the signal and do what you want. That's not part of the Ohio Revised Code - nor part of the rules of the road and the courtesy we owe to others in sharing that road.
There's also been a steady degradation in simply knowing the rules of the road. Take, for example, what a driver is to do at a signalized intersection in making a left turn. When the light changes a solid green, the left-turning driver is to proceed into the intersection, yield to all traffic with a superior right-of-way (i.e., drivers proceeding straight through opposite, or drivers turning right onto the same roadway, etc.), then make the left turn when traffic allows. That is called "taking possession of the intersection"; moving into the intersection under the solid green light allows that left-turning driver to complete the turn at the end of the light cycle, as, being lawfully in the intersection, that driver then maintains a right to clear that intersection. This allows traffic to continue to move, both for that driver and for drivers following that driver. Of course, in those intersections with simultaneous left-turn arrows and solid green lights, when the left-turning driver is presented with both solid green and left-turn green lights, that driver has the designated right-of-way through the intersection; conversely, where the left-turning driver has only left-turn arrow signalization, and otherwise has a red light, that left turn can only proceed upon receiving the left-turn green arrow.
So often now drivers are absolutely clueless about this simple rule - and, at busy intersections without green arrows, but only solid green light signals, they sit at the intersection, never entering to take possession as traffic backs up behind them. The same happens at intersections with both solid green and left-turn green arrows - drivers sit, failing to enter the intersection, hoping that the green arrow will signal. At many such intersections, however, the left-turn arrow only cycles when the signal perceives sufficient left-turn traffic to initiate the left-turn arrow - otherwise, the driver is to proceed as one is to proceed with a solid green light. They don't, and traffic backs up. This is basic driver's ed - but, without basic driver's ed as a part of school curricula, more and more drivers are less and less aware.
Roundabouts - if you're in Tallmadge or Akron, traffic circles - are another issue. "Modern" roundabouts - like those now in place across Ohio and Summit County (Ridgewood and Jacoby Roads, and Ridgewood and Hametown Roads in Copley Township, Riverview and Smith Roads in the valley are examples) - provide for continuous traffic operation with yielding, but not stopping, the preferred method of use; "traffic circles", on the other hand (like Tallmadge Circle or Mull and Hawkins Avenues in Akron), require those entering the pattern to stop berfore entering the circle. However, our drivers seem heaped with confusion on confronting any roundabout, and do one of two things: either jam on the brakes and stop dead before entering, and at every entry point in the roundabout for other traffic, or never yield at all and slam their way through the roundabout, other traffic be damned.
The rules for roundabouts are really quite simple - when entering a "modern" roundabout, simply yield to any traffic already on the roundabout, then enter - and all others entering after you enter must yield to you until you exit that roundabout. Roundabouts populate Europe, and have made a significant dent across this country, as they truly aid both efficiency and safety, calming traffic while promoting flow rather than stop-and-start action. Used correctly, they are a great benefit to all - used incorrectly by an uneducated populace, they're just the opposite.
Expressways are another beast altogether. We have "limits" placed on our speeds on those roadways - but, for many, and that's turning into most, those limits are simply ignored as optional rather than as mandatory directives. I-77 between Montrose and Akron is a prime example, where drivers routinely push the 55 and 65 mph limits to 75-85 and above, tailgating, weaving through the lanes without signaling, doing all they can on Akron's NASCAR track to get just one more car ahead. A limit is a limit - it's mandatory, not a mere suggestion. It's for everyone - and meant for everyone - using the road. Driving ten feet behind someone else with the idea that your cruise missile in their rear-view mirrors will somehow intimidate them into moving aside, all at 90 feet per second, is a recipe for disaster. The place where common courtesy has simply disappeared is the expressway system, where a damn-the-torpedoes-full-speed-ahead rationale seems to grip certain drivers at the expense of all others. Give yourself five extra minutes to get where you're going, plan your trip, and you won't have to mad-dash to the next soccer game, haircut, or golf match. Five minutes - that's all it generally takes.
I could go on and on - some say I do. Truth is, as an attorney who faces and takes on these matters daily, I can say it's part of my job. In fact, if we all did a better job as drivers, folks like me would have less to do - and I, for one, would not complain about that at all. And I have Mrs. Campbell to thank for that.

(A) The operator of a vehicle, streetcar, or trackless trolley intending to turn to the left within an intersection or into an alley, private road, or driveway shall yield the right of way to any vehicle, streetcar, or trackless trolley approaching from the opposite direction, whenever the approaching vehicle, streetcar, or trackless trolley is within the intersection or so close to the intersection, alley, private road, or driveway as to constitute an immediate hazard.

4511.13 Highway traffic signal indications; section not applicable to railroad crossings.
Highway traffic signal indications for vehicles and pedestrians shall have the following meanings:
(A) Steady green signal indication: (1)(a) Vehicular traffic, streetcars, and trackless trolleys facing a circular green signal indication are permitted to proceed straight through or turn right or left or make a u-turn movement except as such movement is modified by a lane-use sign, turn prohibition sign, lane marking, roadway design, separate turn signal indication, or other traffic control device. Such vehicular traffic, including vehicles turning right or left or making a u-turn movement, shall yield the right-of-way to both of the following: (i) Pedestrians lawfully within an associated crosswalk; (ii) Other vehicles lawfully within the intersection . (b) In addition, vehicular traffic turning left or making a u-turn movement to the left shall yield the right-of-way to other vehicles approaching from the opposite direction so closely as to constitute an immediate hazard during the time when such turning vehicle is moving across or within the intersection.
Christopher C Esker
7:34 pm on Friday, February 22, 2013
(2) Vehicular traffic, streetcars, and trackless trolleys facing a green arrow signal indication, displayed alone or in combination with another signal indication, are permitted to cautiously enter the intersection only to make the movement indicated by such arrow, or such other movement as is permitted by other indications displayed at the same time. Such vehicular traffic, streetcars, and trackless trolleys, including vehicles turning right or left or making a u-turn movement, shall yield the right-of-way to both of the following:
(a) Pedestrians lawfully within an associated crosswalk ; (b) Other traffic lawfully using the intersection.

And, from the Columbus Dispatch, September 10, 2010, "When Red Means Go: Lights Crucial in Left Turn Crashes", this: "Rules of the road:
A driver turning left can enter an intersection on a green or yellow traffic signal. But the driver can't turn until the oncoming traffic clears. If the traffic clears only because the light has changed to red, the driver must make the turn to get out of the intersection.
Any car that has crossed the "stop" line before the light changes red should turn on red. It's often safe for only one or two cars to cross that line and enter the intersection. Any car behind the line when the light turns red can't make the turn."

And, finally, from the Toledo Blade's November 17, 2008 Legal Briefs column by Attorney Dale Emch, this tidbit: "But often there's a bit of a twist in cases like these. Driver A will be waiting to make a left-hand turn on a yellow light and the light will turn red before Driver B enters the intersection. Once the light turned red, Driver B should have stopped and Driver A would have the right of way to clear the intersection."

New York (AP) - Starting this Sunday, October 28th - visitors to the Statue of Libery will be able to take in the view from Lady Liberty's crown.
Visitors are already snapping up tickets online.
"The Statue of Liberty remains one of the city's most iconic attractions and there certainly will be a pent up demand for visitors to want to go up and see the crown" said Chris Heywood, a spokesman for New York City's official tourism agency.
The renovations promise better access and safer conditions. There are two new staircases, a new elevator inside the pedestal and a lift that will take visitors who are mobility impaired higher into the monument than ever before.

4dr Sdn 3.6L Premium RWD
Starting at $32,275 | Starting at 18 MPG City - 27 MPG Highway
Provided by NADAguides.com
Completely redesigned for 2008 and helping to lead a resurgence for General Motors, the 2011 Cadillac CTS Sedan combines segment-leading fit and finish with world class performance and handling. For 2011, the CTS joins its coupe and wagon siblings and is offered with your choice of a 3.0-liter 270 hp V-6 or a 3.6-liter Direct Injection 304 hp V-6 linked to a 6-speed manual or a paddle shift 6-speed automatic. All trim levels are available with rear wheel or all wheel drive and deliver up to 18/27 mpg city/hwy. Available features include hand stitched and crafted interiors, ambient lighting, pop-up NAV, USB audio connectivity, Bluetooth, XM, a panoramic sunroof and a performance suspension. Standard safety includes front, side and curtain airbags, stability control and OnStar automatic crash response. The CTS Sedan continues to lead in the luxury sport sedan segment and compares well in quality and value with many European rivals.
With its edgy styling, sport-tuned chassis, and luxurious interior appointments, the Cadillac CTS is well-placed to take on mid-size sport sedans from Japan and Europe. And with available all-wheel drive, several body and trim configurations, and its high-performance CTS-V option, it's a strong competitor at several price points.
For 2011, Cadillac's best-selling CTS line gains a new coupe version, joining the existing 4-door sedan and wagon. Styled much like the familiar sedan, the new coupe features a steeper rake to the windshield and unique lines, giving it a bold and aggressive stance. Sedans and wagons are again available with the 3.0L 270-hp V6 or the 3.6L 304-hp V6, while the new coupe gets the 3.6. The CTS-V sedan returns and adds the coupe variant as well. No major changes have been made to the lineup, but Black Ice Metallic and Evolution Green Metallic are now available as extra-cost colors, and new Ebony seats with Saffron sueded fabric inserts are available on CTS-V coupe only. Several new wheel options are also available.
The 2011 Cadillac CTS is offered in three body styles: sedan, sport wagon, and coupe. For the sedan and wagon, two trim levels are available, starting with the base 3.0, which features a 3.0L 270-hp V6 and a standard 6-speed manual or optional 6-speed automatic transmission. The 3.6 is powered by a 3.6-L 304-hp V6 and a standard 6-speed automatic, although the 6-speed manual is available as a credit option. The coupe gets the 3.6, and all three body styles can be ordered with either rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive.

- Gurudeva's Master Course Lesson of the Day
Bodhinatha's Latest Upadesha: "Detachment from Experiences; Importance of Daily Vigil" (May 5, 2013)
All experiences are good experiences, necessary to get us here. Awareness of aspects of ourselves that are constantly changing is a liberating perception, breaking our chains to mundane areas, detaching from instinctive and intellectual to go into superconscious. The greatest challenge facing youth today is the lack of relating to the devotional side of Hinduism. Daily practice, daily vigil, moves us forward spiritually. Commentary on Merging with Siva, The Master Course, Lesson 21.

Bye Bye Baby
Influenced by the West Coast hip-hop of 2Pac and Ice-T, and the classic soul of Stevie Wonder and Aretha Franklin, Terence Quaites, aka TQ, scored a string of hit singles in the late '90s with a sound self-described as "Reality R&B." Born in Compton, CA in 1976, he began his musical career in his teens as one fourth of B-Boy group Coming of Age, who reached the Billboard Top 30 with debut single "Coming Home to Love," before disbanding in 1995. Three years later, he returned to the music scene as a solo artist, armed with a sound that combined tough lyrics with melodic, soulful vocals, and achieved huge success in the U.S. and Europe with the tracks "Westside" and "Bye Bye Baby," and their parent album They Never Saw Me Coming. Future LPs, The Second Coming (2000) and Listen (2004) saw diminishing returns, but TQ continued to record material throughout the decade, with Gemini (2007), Paradise (2008), and Kind of Blue (2010), all following, while various collaborations with Lil Wayne, German pop star Sarah Connor, and Czech composer Jan Hammer kept his name in the spotlight. In 2006, he embarked on an acting career which resulted in roles in Richard III and The Devil's Grind, while in 2011, he launched a U.K. comeback with the track "Uh Oh," a duet with urban songstress Danielle Senior. ~ Jon O'Brien, Rovi

Well, it could be the extremely cold spring in the UK that made the first four months of 2013 look like an extended Christmas period without days off. Yet the fact remains: both of the above mini-challenges were issued three months ago, so time has come to sum them up and announce the winners.

Cushman & Wakefield Brokers Expansion Lease for Solix in Parsippany12 Apr, 2011, Parsippany
Just more than a year ago, Solix, Inc., relocated its headquarters from Whippany, N.J. with its
full-building occupancy of the 56,000-square-foot 30 Lanidex Plaza West. Now, the outsourcing
firm has added 10,000 square feet at the adjoining 10 Lanidex Plaza West, represented in both
long-term transactions by the East Rutherford, N.J.-based Cushman & Wakefield Inc. team of
Peter Hamburger, Walter Schoenberg, Harlan Hollander, Robert Rudin, Jan Randall, and Nate
"Solix, recently won additional contracts and needed more space to house upwards of 70 staffers," said Hamburger. "The firm continues to show solid growth, as clearly indicated by the fact that they had expanded by combining two existing North Jersey locations at 30 Lanidex Plaza West just over a year ago, and already needed more space to accommodate their needs." Solix, Inc., which employs more than 400 in New Jersey, is a leading provider of government and commercial process outsourcing solutions with an emphasis on public benefit program services and customer relationship management solutions. The company's clients include, among others, government agencies, telecommunications providers and healthcare providers. In addition to its Parsippany headquarters, Solix operates call centers in Illinois and Indiana and has a regional office in Missouri. The firm's headquarters relocation to Parsippany in late 2009 won the United Way of Morris County's coveted "Commercial Real Estate Impact Award." The 72,711-square-foot, three-story 10 Lanidex Plaza West is owned by 10 Lanidex Associates LP, an affiliate of Montvale, N.J.-based Ivy Equities. The latter also owns 30 Lanidex Plaza West. In the latest transaction, the landlord was represented in-house by Marion Geddes, executive vice president-leasing. "The location of both buildings, near the intersection of I-80 and Parsippany Rd., is highly accessible and ideal for Solix's requirements," said Hamburger. "In addition, the headquarters space at 30 Lanidex Plaza West was completely redeveloped by Ivy Equities to meet LEED certification standards. That is one of the company's ongoing requirements, and in both transactions, we were able to identify properties meeting the high standards of their corporate culture." ###

Well I purchased bundle three supposedly broken Dreamcasts off eBay for $20, free shipping. One was a condition model 0, with a blown f1 resistor on the controller port, another was a model 2, that had a fan with a bad bearing and finally there was a model 1, with video issues. I fixed every one of these and now they are working great, but I am stuck on this last model 1 Dreamcast.
Anyway, what happens it will boot up, the controller port works great and it will play games, but it has a HORRIBLE flickering issue. It is really hard to explain, but it will boot almost all the way through the Dreamcast logo, without flickering, but after that, everything in the menu and every game will have horrible flickering. I have replaced the power supply, with 3 others and this issue still occurs and I have also swapped various other parts, but of course the issue resides somewhere on the motherboard.
I am using brand new standard AV/out cables that work on all other Dreamcasts fine. The AV out port on the Dreamcast looks fine, with all pins intact.
Here is a video of this Dreamcast flickering that I have made:
Now, I do have a spare working motherboard to fix this Dreamcast, but I would like to see if it is repairable first.
So, my question is, what do you think is the issue? Could it be some capacitors on the motherboard that are going wonky or do you think it would maybe be the video chip that is bad?
Thanks in advance,

Some of the world's biggest banks were downgraded Thursday by rating agency Moody's, which cited concerns about the stability of the global financial system.
Moody's cut the ratings of 15 financial institutions after U.S. markets closed Thursday, including giants like Bank of America, Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan.
"All of the banks affected by today's actions have significant exposure to the volatility and risk of outsized losses inherent to capital markets activities," Moody's Global Banking Managing Director Greg Bauer said in a statement.
Moody's review of the banks, announced in February, was prompted by a "reassessment of the volatility and risks that creditors of firms with global capital markets operations face." Among the risks Moody's cited were "more fragile funding conditions, wider credit spreads, increased regulatory burdens and more difficult operating conditions."
The news comes amid continued anxieties over Europe's debt crisis and the havoc it could wreak on global markets.
The downgrades could raise costs for the banks, making it more expensive for them to borrow money.
They may also make it more difficult for the banks to sell their commercial paper to money market funds. Commercial paper is a form of borrowing that banks and other companies use to meet their short-term cash needs.
At the very least, downgrades are a source of concern for investors. Shares of major banks including Bank of America, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, Morgan Stanley, Citigroup and Deutsche Bank dropped between 1.7% and 3.9% in trading Thursday as downgrade rumors swirled.
Shares gained some ground back in after-hours trading, however. Morgan Stanley, in particular, rose 3.4% after hours, after Moody's downgraded it only two notches. In February, Moody's said the bank could face a three-notch downgrade, which would have significantly increased its costs.
Relief about Morgan Stanley likely spurred other financials higher in after-hours trading as well, said Eric Kolchinsky, an independent consultant and former managing director at Moody's.

The 10 Worst Christmas Movies:
E! Online has chosen the 10 Worst Christmas Movies. Here's the list . . .
#1.) "Santa Claus Conquers the Martians", 1964
#2.) "Black Christmas", 2006
#3.) "Surviving Christmas", 2004
#4.) "The Nutcracker in 3D", 2009
#5.) "Deck the Halls", 2006
#6.) "Santa With Muscles", 1996
#7.) "Christmas With the Kranks", 2004
#8.) "Fred Claus", 2007
#9.) "Jingle All the Way", 1996
#10.) "Four Christmases", 2008
(Worth noting: VINCE VAUGHN made the list TWICE . . . with "Four Christmases" and "Fred Claus". Check out the list here.)
A Woman's Definition of the "Perfect Man" Changes With Her Age . . . Here are the Five Different Types:
A new study has found that a woman's definition of the PERFECT MAN changes at different points in her life. There are five different men that women target at different ages. Check 'em out . . .
Age 18 to 24. A woman looks for someone who's physically fit, shares the same taste in music and movies, and impresses her friends.
Age 25 to 34. Physical attraction and sexual compatibility are most important. A woman is okay with a guy who doesn't make a ton of money, as long as he's ambitious.
Age 35 to 44. This is the age where women are most likely to date a YOUNGER or OLDER MAN. And they want someone with good manners.
Age 45 to 54. Women want a guy with a HIGH INCOME in this age range more than ever. But . . . outside of income, they're the LEAST PICKY of any time in their lives.
Age 55 and up. Women over 55 are the pickiest, and want a guy who shares their intelligence, values, and sense of humor. They also want a guy who knows exactly what to do to them sexually.
Men Think They're More Attractive, Funnier, and Better in Bed When They Drink . . . But Women Don't Agree:
According to a survey by a British cancer research charity, men use beer goggles . . . on themselves.
One in three men think that they're more attractive after they've had a few drinks . . . but only one in EIGHT women agree. And two in five women think it makes men LESS attractive.
One in three men think alcohol improves their odds of pulling chicks . . . and 43% think they're funnier when they're drinking. But 30% of women say that's NOT true.
40% of men think alcohol makes them better dancers . . . but 37% of women say that alcohol doesn't improve a guy's performance on the dance floor.
And one in four men think that they are better in bed after they've been drinking . . . but more than HALF of women disagree.

In a comment on my gardening post last week, Ted reminded me of the inimitable Mary Poppins, and I was in turn moved to recollect her frank self-description as 'Practically Perfect in Every Way'. In the case of that charming fictional character, it was simply and inarguably the truth. The rest of us, mere mortals, can't quite go that far if we're honest.
Which is why I like saints. It's doubtful I'd really enjoy meeting them in person, to be precise: it's the nature, the character of them, that really fascinates me. Because, as I understand it, what separates the saints from the rest of us ordinary slouches is not that they were born or made saints but that they became saints by rising above the ordinary way they began. Unlike superheroes and the majority of fairytale protagonists, it's not often a transformation that's accomplished by the wave of a wand or inadvertent exposure to radioactive substances, but rather is brought about by internal change and will and choice.
There is hope for me in the idea that most saints–and I gather this is true of the heroines and heroes of many significant belief systems, along with many of the major religions–start out as plain, simple, unimpressive and very mortal humans and for one reason or another are moved to do the things they do that gradually re-shape them into extraordinary beings. Some of those avatars, indeed, start out as pretty sketchy characters, if not outright jerks, despots, and other first-rank varieties of meanies. It's the process, the journey, and the ultimate commitment to do and be something else that makes them extraordinary.
Chances are beyond-excellent that I will never become a saint of any sort. But the real hope and inspiration in the lives of heroes, saints and exemplars is that nearly all of them began their lives as someone or something far less extraordinary than the way they ended them, and if so there's always a possibility that with a little thoughtful effort I might actually improve along the way too. Don't hold your breath, but I might just turn out slightly better than expected. Apparently, miracles do happen.

Webcast: Brownwood Native Injured in Afghanistan
By: Ron Rosseau and Monica Tassoni
Updated: July 11, 2012
BrownwoodNews.com reports Petty Officer First Class Cody Williams suffered several wounds when the Humvee he was in ran over an improved explosive device.
Williams is the son of Cloy and Jeannie Williams of Brownwood and graduated in 2004 from Brownwood high school before enlisting in the Navy, where he completed two deployments in Iraq before being sent to Afghanistan.
He was flown to a hospital in Germany and will be brought back to a military hospital in the US.

It is always a tricky thing to ask professional and famous authors to endorse the work of an unknown writer even if published. However, I am bowed with humility by the graciousness of the greats who have responded to my request for a publishable comment on the science fiction book, ARIA – volume one: Left Luggage – being published by LL-Publications this year. So far I have had positive endorsements from
Brad Lineweaver: Geoff Nelder asks all the right questions (He refers to the issues in the novel where people have difficult decisions to make about what aspects of life is most critical).
Jon Courtenay Grimwood: Geoff Nelder wears science fiction like other people wear clothes.
Robert J Sawyer commented that Left Luggage is a fascinating project.
Mike Resnick: ARIA has an intriguing premise, and is written in a very accessible style.
Dan Simmons wishes me luck and success with ARIA but was too busy to read the manuscript – no problem, I quite understand.
Years ago I would not have dreamed of talking to and writing to the best and admired SF writers in the world and yet they are real people and remarkably accessible. The warmth is tangible. Thanks too to the Chester SF/F rebel book group meeting tonight. We discussed Greg Bear's Hull Zero Three and although we disagreed in many ways, we are glued by a common admiration of the genre.
Then back home to write more paragraphs on ARIA volume three.

Instead of upgrading I decided to build a new store with the 1.3.6 version. I have backed up my database, created a new one and am trying to upload the old database into the new one so I can run the upgrades. phpMyAdmin will not let me upload the backup of my zencart database (maybe a size problem? It will only allow a Max: 2,048KB file to be upload and my database backup is 88.6 mg). It times out no matter what I try. Is there another way to get the backup of the old database to the new database so I can complete this upgrade? I am just about out of patience with this and since my current 1.2.6 store is having major major paypal issues (timing out/kicking customers off) I need to get this resolved quickly! Any suggestions?
Right now I'm all for a fix for the 1.2.6 PayPal problem to get me through! lol
Thanks a bunch

BASF Revenue Beats, AIG Tax Benefit Boosts Profit: Hot Trends
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Popular searches on the Internet Friday include BASF after the German chemical, plastics and oil company reported fourth-quarter sales that beat analysts' expectations and predicted record profit and sales to continue.
BASF reported fourth-quarter revenue that rose 10% to €18.07 billion ($24 billion) and announced a €2.50 dividend. The company said higher raw materials costs were in most part passed on to its clients through higher pricing.
BASF chief Kurt Bock predicted a moderate start to 2012 but forecast that the global economy will improve as the year goes on, aiding in the company's targets of increased sales and earnings. Research and development spending this year will be boosted to €1.7 billion.
American International Group(AIG) is trending Friday after reporting profit that rose 77% in the fourth quarter to $19.8 billion as the company booked a large tax benefit.

Hello!! I wondered if anyone can help me... Iv tried to be really positive recently on here, however I'm struggling to stay positive with the scales going against me!! :-(
I have been on Cambridge diet since October and have lost 4 stone 7lb and am really pleased with the weightless don't get me wrong, but I am wanting to loose just that bit more (8lbish)
I have been on Step 2 Cambrdige (810) for 7 weeks and for the first 4 weeks I lost 2lb consistently... And then I introduced working out (interval training for 30 minutes a day with one day off) and since this point my weight loss has stopped and ive stayed the same.
Im devastated as I'm working so hard to tone and continue loosing that it doesn't feel fair that im
not loosing even though I'm working harder :-(
Im religiously sticking to 810 and dont let anything else pass my mouth, with the intention of loosin some more, and I was sure that adding excersize would boost my weight loss further.
If someone could help me and encourage me and maybe someone who experienced the same tell me what's going on or if I will loose any more... I'd be so grateful!
Right now (on top of stress from house buying/wedding planning/new teaching job) I feel like giving up!!
So grateful for any help!

Most readers will have forgotton that I planned to open an online haberdashery this year, and the project has taken so long that even I nearly forgot about it. But what was originally intended to be special order shoes and cloth has taken a different turn, and interested people will see a growing selection of world class pocket squares, neckties and scarves available from stock over the course of August, to be followed by shoe inventory in several months.
The store will be adding items this month bit by bit until it has a couple dozen necktie designs, silk scarves and squares for early autumn. Many of the items are resurrected designs from the archives that will be available only from ASW. Orders will be accepted online, and shipped without taxes or shipping charges from Nevada.
I look forward to your feedback after the project is live. Please watch this space.

To quote a friend of mine, "Listening to Nadja is like being rocked to sleep by a grizzly bear". Perfect (Thanks to Skeletor over at the Digitalmetal.com forums for that one).
For those of you unfamiliar with Canada's Nadja (a situation I highly recommend you rectify), they play a form of doomy, ambient atmospheric yet beautiful drone not unlike Pelican (on Xanex), God Speed You! Black Emperor, Godflesh, The Angelic Process, Monarch! (without PMS) and others of that ilk, and Touched is a slightly altered re-issue of their 2002 debut.
With ten albums and loads of splits under their belt, Nadja are now master of their trance inducing craft, but Touched shows a rougher, more caustic, though still transcendental Nadja in their formative years. Though the template consists of the same uber longs songs full of deep, lengthy lulls of ambience swirling around droning three note riffs of sonic lethargy, the presentation is a bit more rough and primal than say, Bodycage, though still as evocatively heavy and dreamlike at times.
The five tracks (an needless four-minute untitled track is the bonus on this version) are what you'd expect from the genre--10-18 minutes expositions of taut, crumbling, feedback drenched slo mo landslides ("Mutagen"), occasional dreamy chanted vocals and whispers with ample builds and atmospheres ("Stays Demons") that will drain you of your will to stay awake, other than the sudden turbulent injections of thunderous feedback and percussion. The megalithic, now 18 minute (up four minutes from the original 2002 version) "Incubation/Metamorphosis" is the nerve deadening, shimmering, doomy centerpiece of the album that will leave you in a drooling musical only to be awakened by the calamitous start of "Flowers of Flesh".
As with most drone/doom/ ambient, Nadja are an acquired taste but a taste that's easier to acquire than regular atonal drone, due to the injections of atmosphere and actual riffs amid the rending cascade of drone. Either way, Nadja are one of the very best at what they do and I recommend you check out their extensive and brilliant discography.
