Picture yourself spending some time with congenial friends, sharing your lives and pictures from your cell phones." They're curious about that cool game, song, movie, camping trip, art show, or other event that fascinated you. You talk about all kinds of stuff, poetry, styles, personal achievements, relationships, and bad days. You can share your inner child, and laugh together. They sympathetically listen to your feelings about serious topics like politics or climate change, even when they don't agree.
Personal validation comes from paying attention to one another, giving more than you get. Everyone respects you and themselves, despite our amazing range of personal tastes and interests. They'll tell you they don't agree with an idea or behavior without implying you're a bad person or somehow deficient. It's an "I'm OK, You're OK" kind of fellowship, where nobody tries to make himself look better by picking on somebody else.
Nobody here is into mind games. A discussion started with a loaded guilt-throwing question will be deleted.
This group is not intended to compete with other groups on topics they cover but to "fill in the cracks." Whenever a discussion dwells at length on a topic for which there's an existing group, we urge you to provide members a link to that group to continue along their tangent.
A comment is a shout-out, which will get lost in a few days, because the comment wall is just a random stack.
Please start a discussion to share stories, photos, and videos. Replies will pop up in your "latest activity" and a conversation can develop from the feelings and thoughts you contributed. Groups are built on discussions.

Mindy, I guess you forgot about that 50 bucks you owe me.
Glad you can get more sleep now Patricia. I'm going to look into those CDs as I only get 5 hrs a night.
Patricia, I vaguely remember that, but I don't remember what I had for lunch yesterday! lol. 2 of the meds I'm on have a side-effect of memory loss, and I don't know if that's why I forget a lot, or if it's just me. My daughter is on a med that causes it too, and she's hoping that's why she can't get through a college-level math course! lol. I think it's just our family has no "math gene" though!!!
The sleep cd's were discussed quite a lot a couple of months ago & I even mentioned about the ones for depression that were on ebay.
Yes thanks, FA, my days are much better, & so is my energy level. It's much less effort to force myself to do my normal daily things.
According to everything I've read about these cd's, I should hopefully be able to work up to the 7 to 9 hours the dr. wants me to get.
Patricia, getting 4 or 5 hours of sleep is indeed a vast improvement. I'm glad to hear the cd's are working for you. I understand your apprehension of using drugs to help you sleep. Getting that additional sleep certainly must make you feel better throughout the day. Hopefully over time you'll be able to extend your sleep to longer periods.
Thanks Joan, but have plenty of cd's already with more in my 'to purchase' list for variety, but of course can't buy them all at the same time.
Napping does not happen & I am home all the time other than going shopping for a couple of hours a couple of times a week. Opportunity is there, but it doesn't make me sleep & day time sleeping was never an issue before.
My optimal time for sleep used to be from about 4 or 5 a.m. until 10:30-11 a.m. but no more. I have always been a night person & made to feel very guilty about deliberately not going to bed at 'normal' times, but over the years got past it & slept at my own timetable.
After developing the fibromyalgia, & having cancer treatments, with 5 years of meds, sleep has been almost impossible so formal diagnosis of sleep deprivation was no surprise.
The cd's are working very well as I am sleeping for about 4 or 5 hours most times, & although it is broken sleep, I can go back to sleep, which wasn't happening before. Compared to the hour or two I've been living with for years, it's a big improvement!
My heart thing has even settled down a lot as well, so as long as I can sleep some with the cd's playing, so be it.
Yes, I've read the PAT information & printed some of it as well.
Mindy, I've had to wear a heart monitor a couple of times in the past. Throughout the years (starting in my early 20's) I've had periods of tachycardia (fast heart rate). In later years I experienced anxiety and occasional panic attacks. Through it all, and after having stress tests and EKG's, it was extremely reassuring to learn that I have a normal, strong heart. And starting on high blood-pressure medication a few years ago has pretty much eliminated any problems I was having.

GPS fleet tracking December 31, 2006
Posted by Rich in : GPS asset tracking,GPS fleet tracking,GPS vehicle tracking , trackbackFleet tracking is a specialized form of GPS asset tracking that utilizes other technologies as well. Often lumped together under the term mobile resource management (MRM), this technology suite can utilize GPS, RFID, and Wi-Fi. Telematics is another term used to describe this field, which can help reduce fuel, labor and insurance costs, and even the number of vehicles required to meet management's needs.
A study by C.J. Driscoll and Associates indicates that 1.9 million GPS/wireless devices are used for this purpose, and that the market will grow to 5.9 million by 2009. Automatic vehicle location (AVL) is one of the most commonly used components of MRM.
More information can be found in this reprint on Telematics from Automotive Fleet magazine.

Books more people should read
» The Book of Negros by Lawrence Hill «
Unrolling a map of the world, Aminata Diallo puts one finger on the coast of West Africa and another on London. The first is where she was born in 1745, the second is her location six decades later. Her story is what happened in between, and her remarkable voice is the heart and soul of Hill's magnificent novel. Brought before the British public by the abolitionists to reveal the realities of slavery, she has come, old and weary, to change the tide of history and bear witness to some of the world's most grievous wrongs.
Kidnapped and taken from her family as a child, Diallo is forced aboard a ship bound for South Carolina, where she arrives at age 12, weak and ill, the other slaves her only family. But soon she is sold again and begins an exodus that will lead to Canada, where she discovers the same relentless hardship and stinging prejudice. Her hunger for freedom drives her back across the Atlantic to England, and in 1792, Aminata undertakes yet another ocean crossing, bound for the place of her birth.

One great way to reduce your carbon footprint is to limit your use of disposables as much as possible. When it comes to hydration, that means, for example, opting for a reusable water bottle rather than relying on bottled water.
For kids, many parents also try to avoid products with bisphenol-A (BPA) because of concerns about its potential to mimic estrogen, lead to reproductive problems, increase the risk of cancer and interfere with brain development and fat metabolism. Fortunately, if you're trying to limit your children's exposure to BPA, there are many options on the market today that are BPA-free. Here are some options to consider:
1. Crocodile Creek stainless steel drinking bottles
These 13.5-ounce drinking bottles are made of food-grade stainless steel, making them a great alternative to plastic or epoxy-lined metal containers. They are 100% recyclable and free of lead, phthalates and BPA.
Crocodile Creek recommends hand-washing these bottles, which are designed for children ages 3 and up. They come in a variety of bright, kid-friendly designs that match Crocodile Creek's line of lunch boxes and backpacks.
2. Thermos Foogo vacuum-insulated bottle
This 10-ounce drinking bottle from Thermos features double-wall vacuum insulation that keeps beverages cold for up to 10 hours and prevents the exterior from developing condensation. Both the interior and exterior are made of stainless steel.
These bottles are designed for children ages 18 months and up and the parts are interchangeable with other Foogo Phases cups. This bottle is dishwasher safe and comes in a variety of colors.
Thermos also makes 12-ounce FUNtainer bottles for older kids that come in a variety of fun prints.
3. Lifefactory glass bottles
These 9-ounce glass bottles come with a silicone sleeve that prevents them from breaking and provides a strong grip for small hands. They are free of BPA, phthalates, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), latex and polycarbonate.
Lifefactory notes that using glass ensures that there is no metallic or plastic aftertaste to your beverage. The entire bottle, including the sleeve, can be put into the dishwasher. The glass for these bottles is made in France, while the silicone sleeves are made in the United States and bottle caps are made in Poland and the United States.
These bottles are available with nipples for use as baby bottles and can be later be converted to beverage containers for toddlers and children by changing to a sippy or flat cap. The sleeves and bottle tops come in a variety of colors and you can buy extra tops to customize the look of the bottles.
4. Klean Kanteen stainless steel bottles
These 12-ounce bottles are made of food-grade stainless steel that includes recycled content and are free of BPA and phthalates. Klean Kanteen says they don't retain or impart flavors to the beverages they hold. Plus, these bottles fit in most bottle or cup holders and they can be used with a sippy, sport or loop cap.
Made in China, these bottles come in a variety of colors and can be used by children as young as 12 months old, if you opt for a leak-proof sippy top. The sport cap is not leak-proof, so Klean Kanteen recommends its use for kids ages 18 months and up.
The stainless steel bottles are dishwasher safe, but Klean Kanteen recommends hand-washing the colored bottles. Also, the paint used on the colored bottles is water-based, non-toxic and lead-free, but Klean Kanteen recommends the stainless steel bottles for children who like to chew on things.
5. Sigg aluminum bottles
Sigg's kids' bottles come in two sizes: 0.3 liters and 0.4 liters (roughly 10.1 ounces and 13.5 ounces). They come in a wide variety of appealing kid-oriented prints and the caps are also leakproof.
Made in Switzerland, each bottle is made from a single piece of aluminum and lined with a liquid-based liner to ensure there is no leaching of chemicals, metal migration or interference with the beverage's taste. The bottles are also free of BPA and phthalates.
The company releases new designs every year and you can customize each bottle by buying different accessories such as colorful caps or bottle sleeves to protect the bottle from dents. Sigg recommends hand-washing its bottles.
6. Camelbak Eddy plastic bottles
These 12-ounce plastic bottles are BPA-free, stain resistant, taste-free and come in a variety of appealing prints.
The bottles include Camelbak's patented Big Bite valve and stem made from a single piece of medical-grade silicone, which the company says makes the bottle easy for parents to clean and prevents children from accidentally pulling off the bite valve accidentally.
These bottles are designed for children ages 3 and up. The bottles are made in China and include a lifetime warranty.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) - The West Virginia Racing Commission plans to seek public input on a proposed animal cruelty policy.
Commission executive secretary Jon Amores says the policy is an attempt to clarify the panel's authority to punish racing permit holders if abuse is proven.
The commission oversees greyhound and horse racing.
The Associated Press reports that the commission discussed the policy Tuesday. Amores says the policy will be posted on the commission's website for public comment.
According to the policy, the commission would investigate all reported acts of animal cruelty, mistreatment, neglect, abandonment or abuse.
Administrative punishments would include fines and revocation of racing permits. A veterinarian would be consulted to determine whether cases should be referred to authorities for possible criminal prosecution.

just respect their culture and work along.
The problem is their culture is pretty much impossible to work with, kind of like how Japan killed all foreigners before the 1850s and the threat of force was the only way to change thier policies.
dont try to control it from outside whit these kinda sanctions. they have a reversed effect anyway.
It makes their anti-western position stronger, but makes their physical abilities to act upon those beliefs weaker.

are we still talking about the same people? or do you only mean the ridicals? i dont see any government on this earth we can work whit. we can even get along whit north korea if must. and not 1 country is lower then north korea in my opinion.
right, when their amounts are growing it makes them weaker... NOT!
I really doubt Iran can industrialize when their main export is obstructed.
they have friends, they can get stuff from there. usa is not needed. tbh i dunno their main export or if they are in debt. but i'm prety sure they can do fine whitout they people currently buying from them. look at china in 2009 when usa went into the crisis. they started selling more to the rest of the world instead of the usa. shifting your sales happens prety often in smaller scale. but why shouldn't it work on bigger scales like this either?
the western world (except usa) didn't say "so what?" during WW2. and who say's controling the world? usa doesn't say it. they just act like it. and your right we shouldn't let them try to controle the world. attack usa!!!

Southwicks cats get $20000 meal fit for a king of the jungle
Milford Daily News reported
Steak aficionados may cringe with jealousy to learn that the large cats at Southwick's Zoo got a pricey meal on the house from The Capital Grille Boston Restaurant yesterday.
The ferocious felines got the grub thanks to a Back Bay blackout that knocked out the restaurant's power Tuesday.
The customers' loss was the zoo's gain — 2,500 pounds of Grade A steaks, a gift worth about $20,000.
Zoo owner Betsy Brewer said she was thrilled to get the call from Capital Grille on Wednesday, because that much meat will go a long way to feeding the zoo's African lion, Leroy, and his jungle cat friends, a leopard named Mowgli and two Bengal tigers: Kya, who is golden, and Taj, who is white.
"It's amazing, because we feed them good quality meat, but it's not every day that you get the top grade meat," Brewer said hours before the meat arrived. "Even as human beings, we don't eat at Capital Grille every day. ... When the meat comes, they're going to get meals fit for the king of the jungle."
An average steak dinner at the restaurant costs about $40.
Capital Grille spokesman Hunter Robinson said the restaurant has never donated raw meat to a zoo before but figured it was a good idea considering the circumstances.
"I think there were some concerns when we were packaging the meat, whether it would hold up with the power being out, and we definitely didn't want the food to go to waste," Robinson said. "It's great to be able to put this meat to good use, knowing that we can't use it in the restaurant, so it's good to turn a negative to a positive."
A transformer fire knocked out power to about 21,000 NStar customers throughout Boston on Tuesday night. The restaurant got power back around 1 p.m. yesterday, Robinson said.
Restaurant manager Chris Scott drove to the zoo around 1 p.m. to deliver the meat.
Brewer said the restaurant's donation will save the zoo a lot of money in feeding costs, as there are expected to be a lot of leftovers.
"It costs thousands of dollars for us to feed the cats," she said.

Whether they're dispersing fumes from floor poly or simply cooling things off when it's hot, fans are an essential piece of job-site equipment. Ryobi's new cordless unit is an alternative to the battered box fan you've been hauling around for the past decade. The P3310 is powered by an 18-volt li-ion battery and can run for up to 10 hours at the lowest speed, the maker says. Since it's cordless, it doesn't compete for scarce electrical receptacles, and it can be easily moved from room to room. As part of the ONE+ 18V system, it's compatible with all 18-volt Ryobi batteries.
Price: $40 (battery not included). 800-525-2579. ryobitools.com.

Gleeeeeeeee!!!! Trailer for the upcoming Xbox Live Arcade version of PopCap's Plants Vs Zombies.
They already have my money. I love this game.
Popcap Game's smash hit Plants Vs. Zombies will be coming to Xbox Live on September 8th!
The controls have been tweaked for the Xbox. We'll have to wait to see how well that works Vs. the touch screen of my wife's iPod version of the game.
Some details about the release:
The Dancing Zombie from Popcap Game's "Plants Vs. Zombies" is going to be removed from the game due to Michael Jackson's estate being Humorless dicks.
The Estate of Michael Jackson objected to our use of the 'dancing zombie' in PLANTS vs. ZOMBIES based on its view that the zombie too closely resembled Michael Jackson. After receiving this objection, PopCap made a business decision to retire the original 'dancing zombie' and replace it with a different 'dancing zombie' character for future builds of PLANTS vs.ZOMBIES on all platforms. The phase-out and replacement process is underway.
I'm not sure if the people behind Michael Jackson's estate are aware of this (Sarcasm), but MJ was kind of a freak towards the end of his life.
Do they think that this funny dancing zombie is going damage Michael Jackson's reputation further? If anything I'd consider it a tribute to MJ's life BEFORE he turned into a crazy white woman.
Jeez, Lighten up, you dorks.
I really get a kick out of this song. My wife plays Plants Vs. Zombies all the time. Usually when I try to sleep is when I start hearing this song. I think it's really starting to affect me.
Now it can affect you too.

written and performed by Laura Shigihara (with George Fan as all the zombies)
There's a zombie on your lawn
There's a zombie on your lawn
There's a zombie on your lawn
We don't want zombies on the lawn
I know your type: tall, dark, and dead
You want to bite all the petals off of my head
And then eat the brains of
the one who planted me here
I'm just a sunflower but see
me power an entire infantry
You like the taste of brains
we don't like zombies
I used to play football
Road cones protect my head
I have a screen-door shield
We are the undead
(repeat chorus)
Maybe it's time to reevaluate
I know you have a lot of food on your plate
Brains are quite rich in cholesterol
You're dead so it doesn't matter,
Instead we'll use this solar power
to make a lawn defense at any hour
I like the tricycle
There's butter on my head
I'm gonna eat your brains
(repeat chorus)
Yet another company that should just plain hire me. I would love to make stuff like this. Such a fun game that matches my sense of humor perfectly. Plants VS Zombies…. DO WANT!

Greg ClarkeHow to play nice when the workplace is less than friendly
Every schoolyard has a few "difficult" kids whose misbehavior ruins playtime for everyone else. Office life isn't much different. Standard issue with the stapler and the paper clips come certain workplace types who didn't get the how-to-behave memo (or, more likely, made a paper airplane out of it). These coworkers can interfere with your productivity, offend your sensibilities, derail your career, and, worse, prevent you from leaving on time.
Much as you might like to crawl into your cubicle and ignore troublesome coworkers, at some point confronting them may be your only option. But first be sure the situation really requires a draw-a-line-in-the-sand discussion. If it does, speak to the person in private, and remember that your goal should be to improve things for the whole office. And try to keep your emotions in check so that you can have a reasonable, productive discussion.
There are nine aggravating workplace personalities on the following pages, with tips from etiquette and workplace experts on managing them. See anyone you know?
The Clueless Overling
How He Disrupts Your Day: He uses smoke and mirrors to look productive, but everyone knows he doesn't do anything -- except cause mini-emergencies with his meddling. Your productivity suffers, too, because you're constantly performing triage.
Best Way to Finesse: The only job you need to salvage in this situation is your own. "Let (his self-sabotaging behavior) take its course," says etiquette expert Margo Howard, author of Slate's Dear Prudence column (www.slate.com). The boss's follies will eventually attract the attention of top people at the company, and with luck they'll make a change. But if things are unbearable and a change seems far off, you may have to seek out a boss in another department or even another workplace. "If this person is that clueless and you're on his or her coattails, your career could be in danger," says career coach Marjorie Brody, author of Career MAGIC: A Woman's Guide to Reward & Recognition (Career Skills Press, $25, www.amazon.com).
Learn How to Say No from Real Simple.
The Ball-Dropper
How He Disrupts Your Day: Because you're a nice person, you often end up covering for this guy, which means his shortcomings don't get exposed. That makes the ball-dropping snowball, ensuring that you'll have even more messes to clean up. You feel exploited and burdened by an unfair workload.
Best Way to Finesse: Fire a warning shot. "Explain that you were happy to help until now but that you can't do it anymore because your own work is suffering," says Howard. If that doesn't fly, suggest a meeting with your mutual supervisor, if you have one, to address both your workloads. "If you continue to pick up the extra work, your stress level will become intolerable," says Peter Post, director of the Emily Post Institute, a coauthor of The Etiquette Advantage in Business: Personal Skills for Professional Success (HarperCollins, $27, www.amazon.com), and the author of Essential Manners for Men (HarperCollins, $22, www.amazon.com).
The Belittling Boss
How He Disrupts Your Day: He seems to think that hasty criticism is an effective management technique. He takes any opportunity to grill you in front of others until he finds a weak spot to exploit.
Best Way to Finesse: "Ask, in private, where the doubt is coming from," etiquette expert Margo Howard says. "There might not be an answer." Explain that the constant unconstructive criticism is having a deleterious effect on your output. A simple "Tell me what I need to be doing" should help clarify things, says author Marjorie Brody.
See Real Simple's How to Recover From Verbal Blunders
The Spotlight-Stealer
How He Disrupts Your Day: This person pumps you for ideas, then takes credit for them. He always wants to brainstorm with you, pen and paper in hand.
Best Way to Finesse: If a coworker poaches your idea in a meeting where you are present, immediately pipe up, author Marjorie Brody advises. Say, "I'm so glad Bob picked up on what I mentioned. Bob, thanks for recognizing my idea." If you hear about the theft only after your little gem has been presented and approved, Brody suggests sending an e-mail to your manager (unless he's Bob, the credit-swiping boss) with a line like "I'm glad Bob picked up my idea and was able to run with it. Let me know how I can help." After that, just let it go.
The Best-Friend Wannabe
How She Disrupts Your Day: She asks if you have lunch plans at 9:15, then 9:30, then 10, 10:30, 10:45.… And how about a drink after work? Brunch on Sunday?
Best Way to Finesse: "You should not be held hostage to somebody else's wishes or neuroses," says etiquette expert Margo Howard. Just because your coworker wants or needs constant companionship doesn't mean you have to provide it. Explain that you have obligations elsewhere, or say you've made a rule to go straight home after work. "If you open that door, you're in a worse situation than before," Howard says. "Do whatever it takes. People catch on after a while."

Are you more old school in your music collection, preferring the smooth rhythms, improvisation and skilled craftsmanship of jazz? Then show off your musical taste with decorative throw blankets on your living room couch that depict your favorite aspect of jazz, such as a sax player blowing out a rainbow of sound, an old trumpet player wearing black sunglasses, or an illustration of a pair of gloved hands floating in the air as they play a saxophone.
Or are you someone who likes the aggression and chaos of punk?

And of course we have custom music blankets honoring rock n roll, so choose a shiny silver, red and white drum kit set against a white background, a flaming guitar playing skeleton smashing his flaming guitar in an amp, or the close up photo of the dials and strings on a black electric guitar.
