Toxic Legacy
Improper disposal of obsolete IT equipment is fast becoming a major liability for corporations.
Computerworld - When Kaiser Permanente began a program to dispose of its obsolete computer equipment two and a half years ago, it was motivated more by cost concerns than by the desire to properly dispose of products with potentially toxic content.
"My boss was concerned with more space being taken up by excess and used equipment," says Jim Regan, manager of IT facilities at the Oakland, Calif.-based health care management company, noting that the idle assets accrued storage and property tax charges. But he quickly realized that the disposal of IT waste, which contains many toxic substances, presented a potentially large and growing liability risk to Kaiser.
Growing public awareness of the hazards of e-waste and a rising tide of regulations have increased the pressure to recycle IT products and set the stage for higher disposal costs. Meanwhile, low-cost bidders for IT equipment disposal services may be working through brokers to send equipment to developing countriesa controversial practiceor to illegal waste dumps in the U.S. Failure to establish best practices, thoroughly check out vendors and create an audit trail may leave companies on the hook for hefty fines, lawsuits and a barrage of negative publicity.
A typical CRT monitor contains three to nine pounds of lead, recyclers say. And printed circuit boards contain beryllium, cadmium, flame retardants and other compounds that can contaminate the air and groundwater and expose humans to carcinogens and other toxins when equipment is shredded, burned or sent to a landfill. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, e-waste is now the fastest-growing waste stream in the U.S.
Until now, only electronics manufacturers have been under pressure from activists and regulators to reduce toxic content in their products and limit human exposure to toxins used in their manufacturing processes. That's changing.
The European Union took the lead on end-of-life issues when it issued two directives on e-waste aimed at manufacturers early last year. One requires vendors that sell IT products in Europe to phase out some particularly dangerous toxins, including lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium and bromated fire retardants, from electronics products by 2006. The other holds manufacturers responsible for end-of-life disposal costs for their products.
Meanwhile, a wave of e-waste regulations is beginning to roll across the U.S. A new California law assesses an upfront fee for every CRT purchased to cover recycling costs, bars the export of e-waste and requires a phaseout of the toxic substances cited in the EU directive. California and a few other states also have banned landfill disposal of some IT products, such as monitors. In all, more than 24 new bills are working their way through state legislatures, according to Gartner Inc., creating a patchwork of inconsistent rules that organizations must follow and the potential for stiff fines for those that don't.
But a more troubling aspect of the issue for Kaiser's Regan came to light early in 2002, when two activist groups released a graphic and controversial report on the export of U.S. e-waste to developing countries. The report, released by the Basel Action Network (BAN) and Silicon Valley Toxics Coalition (SVTC), asserted that 50% to 80% of e-waste collected in the U.S. is exported to developing countries. It included disturbing pictures of children in the Chinese village of Guiyu playing amid mountains of discarded IT products, and laborers smashing monitors by hand outdoors and pouring acid over circuit boards to remove valuable metals. Clearly visible in some of the pictures were the asset tags of private and public U.S. organizations that previously owned the equipment.
Follow-up stories confirming the e-waste situation in Guiyu appeared in major U.S. newspapers, including The Washington Post and the San Jose Mercury News. But as the media and activists focused on Dell Inc. and other producers as the culprits, Kaiser's management saw the potential for damage to the company's reputation and brand name if its equipment were to appear in such an expose. Exporting e-waste isn't illegal in the U.S., but Regan began to get calls from worried doctors in his company's executive ranks.
By that time, however, he had already worked out an arrangement with Redemtech Inc., a Hilliard, Ohio-based recycler that handles the disposition of obsolete IT equipment. Regan's contract specifies a zero-landfill policy, includes written assurances that Redemtech's recycling subcontractors don't export any e-waste products and calls for documentation of the final disposition of all IT products. Regan uses the reports to pull assets off the books and to protect the company from liability lawsuits. "We went into this with a risk-mitigation point of view. You really have to make sure that nothing on the back end sullies your reputation," he says.
Regan may have been ahead of the curve in thinking about these issues, but considering the volume of e-waste that companies like his generateKaiser has disposed of 65,000 pieces of IT equipment over the past two yearshe's convinced that it's just a matter of time before environmental groups make an example of a large corporate user of IT products. "Do your homework and make sure you have your back covered," he advises.
Dell became such an example on the vendor side. Ted Smith, founder of the San Jose-based SVTC, says that his organization singled out the PC direct marketer for criticism last year, issued negative reports on its recycling policies and picketed company offices and even the offices of CEO Michael Dell's wife. "We decided that they would make a great target," he says, noting that since the SVTC campaign, the vendor has "begun to take these issues more seriously."
The tactic worked: Dell, IBM and Hewlett-Packard Co. all say they now offer computer return programs and recycle collected IT products.
Jim Puckett, coordinator of Seattle-based BAN, which opposes the exportation of hazardous e-waste to developing countries and works closely with the SVTC, says a high-profile user of IT products will be his organization's next target. "We're going to start going after some institutions now and making examples of them in a positive and negative way. We're going to be putting pressure on the users," he says.
Meanwhile, many IT organizations remain ignorant of the legal and technical issues surrounding proper disposal of IT equipment. "I still talk to clients on a daily basis and they have no idea what's going on. You'd think that they would know at this point that you can't just throw this stuff out," says Gartner analyst Frances O'Brien.
E-waste Economics
Many IT organizations avoid the problem simply by storing obsolete and unused equipmenta costly proposition that both manufacturers and recyclers say will get only more expensive as the costs of both storage and disposal increase. "The No. 1 solution for IT disposal today is storage," says Lennie Myers, a vice president at Austin-based recycler Image Microsystems Inc.
When it comes time to remove equipment from service, few companies have budgeted for proper disposal, and fewer still want to convince the chief financial officer to spend the $30 per PC that O'Brien says proper disposal of an obsolete PC typically costs. This problem has arisen because the end-of-life economics have changed. While disposal costs have increased, the prices of used PCs have dropped to the point where a typical system has little or no residual value after just 30 months, according to Dell. In the past, an IT organization could dispose of equipment after three years and receive a few dollars back, but today, it's more likely to incur a net cost.
"There is a de facto motivation for people to cut corners in managing end-of-life [issues]," says Bob Houghton, Redemtech's president.
"You can still get a guy in a little red truck to haul away your PCs, so nobody wants to focus on this issue," says an IT executive at a large financial services company, who asked not to be identified. Without executive sponsorship of a responsible disposal policy, he says, business units will continue to throw equipment into Dumpsters rather than incur a $25-per-unit disposal fee billed through an internal, IT-sponsored program.
The executive was able to gain support for responsible recycling by focusing on problems with improper erasure of data on the hard disk drives of discarded PCs and the risk of noncompliance with Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act privacy regulations. Vendors such as Image Microsystems and Redemtech verify and document disk erasure as part of their services. Because of the extra costs of responsible disposal, the executive says, it will take the negative publicity of a "Martha Stewart type of case" before businesses will fund proper disposal practices.
"There are bad things happening. As a corporation, you need to prove you did due diligence," O'Brien says. That means tracking assets and having proof of sale or proper disposalsomething most companies don't do. Despite the risk of negative publicity, it's legal and relatively inexpensive to work with brokers that export IT equipment overseas. Even recyclers that say they don't export may send some equipment or components to downstream brokers that do export it. Or the equipment could end up in a field somewhere unless you've verified the vendor's practices and tracked the asset properly, O'Brien says.
She says one client received an offer to remove 3,000 dead monitors for $3 each, well under the going rate of $7 to $35. "Three months later, he got a call from the Department of Environmental Protection asking, 'Why are your monitors in this field?' " O'Brien says. Investigators such as the EPA can quickly trace equipment back to its original owner through serial numbers or asset tags.
"If we can't prove we transferred that title, we're liable," says the financial services company executive. That means paying cleanup costs and fines.
Thinking Ahead
So, what's an IT executive to do? "The best place to [address disposal of IT assets] is where the competition is, which is upfront," says Regan. He now includes specific terms for the disposal of existing IT assets as part of requests for proposals for new equipment. And he's moving toward more leasing, which takes the problem off his plate. All of Kaiser's 250,000 IT assets, including those that go back to vendors or leasing companies, are processed by Redemtech as they're retired. The vendor collects the equipment, wipes the disks, refurbishes, recycles or returns the equipment, and provides written verification.
"We're looking at a net cost per PC of $18.40, and the monitors are $23.71 on a net basis. We've budgeted those disposal costs," Regan says. The total tab for processing 19,906 monitors and 38,204 desktops over two and a half years is approximately $1.2 million.
That may sound expensive, but IT organizations should be wary of vendors that offer disposal services at little or no cost. "They need to be cognizant of what may be happening to those materials ... and do due diligence on those vendors," says Tod Arbogast, senior manager of asset recovery services at Dell.
Don't sit on IT equipment that has reached the end of its life, says Wayne Balter, vice president of corporate environmental affairs at IBM. John Montgomery, chief technology officer at Marine Terminals Corp. in San Pedro, Calif., says his company had a "warehouse full of computers" but has gotten rid of them through an organization that recycles them. Montgomery refreshes 20% of his PCs each year but keeps monitors longer, which saves money upfront and delays disposal costs on the back end. He's also gradually shifting to LCD panels, which use less energy and don't contain the heavy amounts of lead found in CRTs, although fluorescent backlighting introduces small amounts of another toxic substancemercury.
Users may eventually reduce back-end recycling costs by purchasing products that have lower toxic content at the front end. For example, the European TCO and Blue Angel certification labels provide assurance that some toxic materials aren't present in displays and desktops, respectively. But manufacturers will never be able to completely remove all toxic content from electronic products. The best approach for IT products, Houghton says, is to "assume everything is hazardous."
Stacks of unused equipment (right), many with corporate asset tags clearly visible, end up in illegal landfills or in places like Guiya, China, where a worker (left) wearing no protective gear pours acid on circuit boards to reclaim precious metals.

This movie really sucked because they cut more than 20 minutes of important parts from the original version, so I was confusing how every sequence tied together and thus the whole story. I am a Wing Chun practioner and I was disappointed not to see the details of the movement in slow motion. Also, how could they tried to fool everyone by having the female speaking Madarin and the male speaking
This movie sucked, the fight seen in the rain in the begining sucked. All the other fight seens sucked. To much talking in which you had to read the subtitles. To much lovey dovey stuff. I don't mine a little bit of amor in the movie but not thewhole movie. I was ready to walk out, but i felt i might as well stick through since i watched this far. If you like IP man 1,2,3 this doesn't come close.
Spectacular! I loved everything from the music, acting, cinematography to the costumes. What a beautiful movie.
Beautiful character study of Bruce Lee's teacher Ip Man. A rare depiction of the secretive world of true gung fu society. This is much more of an art film for the true practitioners of gung fu, not the casual KUNG FU fan. Very different from Donnie Yen's amazing \"Ip Man\" series.
Good movie, great love story and I really enjoyed the beautiful cinematography. I would give it five stars!

49ers take look at receivers at NFL combine
Published: Sunday, February 24, 2013 at 8:23 p.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, February 24, 2013 at 8:23 p.m.
INDIANAPOLIS — Keenan Allen didn't sprint with the other wide receivers Sunday at the NFL scouting combine, but his brain has been getting a full workout in Indianapolis.
The 49ers were one of several teams that interviewed the talented Cal wideout and had him chart and analyze pass plays on a whiteboard.
"The 49ers grilled me really hard on it," said Allen, who met with receivers coach John Morton. "The coach was real strict and detailed, so I liked that a lot."
By the time the draft begins, the 49ers will have met with nearly every player on their draft board, and Allen will have been interviewed and dissected by every receiver-needy team in the league.
San Francisco has question marks at wide receiver.
Michael Crabtree is sure to start at one spot, but injuries and expiring contracts have created uncertainty at the other. On Friday, 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh said he didn't expect Mario Manningham, who suffered an ACL tear in late December, to be ready for the start of training camp. Kyle Williams also had a late-season ACL tear, and Randy Moss and Ted Ginn are unsigned.
Allen could slip into the second half of the first round because of his own knee injury, a posterior cruciate ligament tear in late October. The 6-foot-2, 210-pound wideout said he aggravated it while training for the combine but plans to work out for scouts at Cal's pro day on March 14.
Allen said he aims to quash concerns about his speed by running his 40-yard dash in 4.4 seconds.
While Allen is a big, physical receiver who must convince scouts he can stretch defenses, another potential target for the 49ers, West Virginia's Tavon Austin, has the opposite reputation.
At 5-8 and 174 pounds, Austin is one of the smallest players — kickers included — at the combine, and teams are wary of using high draft picks on players under 180 pounds.
But Austin also is one of the quickest and most aggressive, and he didn't shy away from comparisons to NFL stars Percy Harvin and Wes Welker.
Dana Holgorsen, Austin's coach at West Virginia, coached Welker at Texas Tech, and Austin said he was very familiar with the Patriots wideout.
"I feel like I'm a little quicker and faster than Wes," Austin said. "I feel like if he can do it, I can do it, too."
Austin said that like Harvin at Florida, he was used both as a receiver and a running back in college and can take a hit. He said he hasn't been injured in eight years. "I'm strong," Austin said. "A lot of people don't think I'm that strong, but I am. The No. 1 thing is my speed and how to set up a play."
Austin ran a 4.34 40-yard dash on Sunday, the second-fastest of the day. He has added attraction for teams such as the 49ers because he also is a prolific return man. If Ginn departs, the 49ers will lose their primary punt returner for the last three seasons.
Allen also returned punts at Cal. However, his attributes are his size and strength, and he likened himself to a big-bodied NFL receiver, Baltimore's Anquan Boldin, who gave the 49ers fits in the Super Bowl. Boldin led the Ravens with 104 receiving yards and a touchdown.
When asked what he admires about Boldin, Allen said: "His physicalness, going up and making catches (when) you don't think he's going to come down with it. (Joe) Flacco just throws it up there sometimes, and (Boldin) always makes incredible catches, including (in) the Super Bowl."

It's the holiday season and for some people that means celebrating with friends, family and cocktails. But instead of settling for the standard martini or Manhattan, author and historian Lesley Blume suggests you reach for a taste of bygone cocktail culture.
In Let's Bring Back: The Cocktail Edition, Blume outlines more than 100 lesser-known oldies that are both delicious and delightful. She joins NPR's David Greene to discuss cocktail history and how to make vintage recipes part of a modern-day party.

If Dick Wolf's record in television is any indication, his debut novel, The Intercept, could be the first of dozens.
These days, Wolf says, episodes of the Law & Order franchise he created run or rerun an average of 109 times a week. He jokes with NPR's Robert Siegel that one secret to the series' longevity is how many of the shows originally aired at 10 p.m.
"The reason it repeats so well, in my opinion," he says, "is because half the audience has fallen asleep and can't remember: How does this end?"

Council revisited the contentious issue of plastic bag usage in Whistler Tuesday (Feb. 22), asking staff to prepare a report looking at ways to reduce the estimated four million thin-film bags distributed in the resort annually.
"We need to put a timeline on this," said Coun. Andrée Janyk. "Bags are polluting our environment, they are not recyclable. It's plain and simple, the research is so clear … I cannot accept anything but (getting) rid of the plastic bags."
The issue was first addressed by the Association of Whistler Area Residents for the Environment (AWARE), which recommended a resort-wide plastic bag ban in a 2008 report to council. The Community Charter doesn't give the RMOW authority to ban the use of plastic bags outright, but does allow for municipalities to regulate the type of shopping bags that retail businesses can distribute.
Since then, the RMOW has adopted a long-term sustainability plastics plan to reduce and eventually eliminate single-film bag usage in Whistler, enacted a voluntary plastic bag ban, worked to educate the community on the impacts of plastic bag usage in conjunction with AWARE and the community's Grocery and Drug Store Alliance, developed a re-usable bag distribution program with local hoteliers and engaged in a six-month monitoring period to gauge the level of plastic bag usage in the resort.
While there are several examples of municipalities successfully removing plastic bags from their communities, Whistler faces some unique challenges because of the amount of visitors to the resort.
"When it comes down to practically dealing with the tourists day-to-day when they run in (to a grocery store) after skiing to pick up their snacks or meal for the evening, they're not likely to be carrying a re-usable bag," said Sue Adams, owner of The Grocery Store and member of The Grocery and Drug Store Alliance. "We're absolutely into the idea of getting rid of plastic bags eventually … But for a number of our market owners, we're concerned with the tourist experience."
Several countries around the world, including Italy, Germany and Japan, have already instituted outright bans on plastic bags.
Educating residents, guests and retail employees on the benefits of reducing plastic bag usage has been a top priority for the Grocery and Drug Store Alliance, but AWARE president Claire Ruddy thinks awareness isn't the most effective strategy.
"I think (local grocery stores) are still talking along the line of education, which is fine, but it doesn't really change anything. If we just try to continually educate, there's a limit to what we can achieve," she said, noting the high turnover rate of local retail staff and the challenges associated with educating the 2.6 million annual visitors to the resort.
Recent monitoring by the RMOW found that despite a resort-wide awareness campaign, plastic bag usage in Whistler has only dropped one per cent in the past four years.
Council was initially divided on how to move forward on this issue. Coun. Jack Crompton introduced a motion that council amend a bylaw to regulate the usage of non-reusable bags throughout the resort, but retracted it after Chief Administrative Officer Mike Furey asked for more time so staff could weight their options.
"We'd really appreciate some more time to do some more research, to work with our partners and come back with a more informed presentation around some of the impacts before we move to a regulatory and enforcement type approach," he said.
Coun. Duane Jackson said the RMOW should look at the effect of all types of plastics on the environment before implementing any type of regulation.
As a result, council moved that municipal staff prepare another plastic bag report following consultation with retail store owners, community groups and environmental experts that would include recommendations for future regulation. A municipal report on garbage reduction strategies will come before council in May, but Mayor Nancy Wilhelm-Morden wants to see a staff report on plastic bags before then.
"I'm aghast at the statistic of four million bags coming out of this community annually. That's unacceptable," she said. "Personally, I'm in favour of a ban on plastic bags. I think there's ways of dealing with that and I'm looking forward to staff's recommendations."
B.C. non-profit Greener Footprints estimates that Canadians use between nine and 15 billion plastic shopping bags a year.

Move Over, Platinum And Gold: Dinosaur Teeth And Meteors -- The New Bling Bling
I hate myself for even using a term like bling bling, ding-a-ling, but I assure you I'll take it out on my liver here in just a little bit. But before the ritualistic alcohol abuse begins, here's a $60K iPhone case made out of t-rex teeth and meteors. Ironic, don't you think? Making a phone case out of sessiest beasts that ever lived and the very thing that killed them? Well I thought so.
Stuart Hughes is back at it again, tricking out iPhones in ridiculously outrageous jewels. His iPhone 4 "HISTORY Edition" is a customization unlike any other we've ever seen.
The back of the HISTORY Edition iPhone 4 isn't cut from glass -- it's made from the tooth of a Tyrannosaurus Rex and meteoric stone that's dated back some 65 million years ago.Hughes is only going to make 10 of these hideous iPhones, with each going for about $62,700. The reason for such a design? Hughes wanted to make something "fierce."
Hey Stewart -- mind if I call you Stewie? No? Too bad. Listen Stewie, if you wanted to make something "fierce", an iPhone IS NOT THE PLATFORM TO BEGIN WITH. I don't care if you wrap the thing in knives and razor wire, IT WILL NEVER BE FIERCE, only painful to answer.
Your iPhone 4 made of glass? Nice, mine is made from a T-Rex's tooth [dvice]
Thanks to Kevin G, blueAlien, tkuper05, Mih0 and frankie, who all have phone cases made with real space technology stripped from alien spaceships that crash-landed here on earth. GTFO!
A $20K iPhone case? Pfft, what are we, peasants? A $2.5 million one? Please, I've wiped with nicer cell phone cases just because I didn't feel like waddling out to the hall closet for more TP. The world's most expensive phone with a total construction cost of £5 million ... / Continue →

You're looking at a 1:18 scale Bugatti Veyron made out of gold, platinum and diamonds. It costs $3 million. *shooting beer out my nose* Wait, what?! The world's most Luxurious and expensive model car. This unique project was a fusion between Robert Gulpen of Munich & Stuart... / Continue →

Just as Kelly comes out for her first performance the screen shows the website (idolonfox.com on msn) and that the phone lines are not yet open for about half a second, so it probably was a goof.
After Kelly's second performance Brian reads out her numbers. This is the only time in the series that a contestants number's are not read out by Ryan.
After one of the commercial breaks Ryan's mic was still off and the first part of his speech was cut off.

The teams would have been forgiven to think they were playing in Apia, not Waitemata, as a 2,500-strong crowd were hugely vocal in supporting the visiting Samoa A team.
And that support must have got Samoa fired up, as they opened the scoring in just the fifth minute.
Samoa had kicked for a line-out on the back of a Blues penalty and a miss-pass from halfback Faatalasemataeemo Fagasoaia was a blessing in disguise.
Flanker Falemiga Selesele collected the ball from the pitch and darted through several defenders on his way to the try line.
The Blues got into their work from the ensuing kick-off and in handy position from a line out they crafted a solid rolling maul that steamed away to the try line.
Their effort crossed the try-line but was held up, and just three phases off the scrum, hooker Gafatasti Su'a burrowed over to even the ledger.
Possession see-sawed throughout the mid part of the first half, the Blues were able to create a number of attacking opportunities but more often than not they were thwarted by poor handling in the backline.
They did get it right late in the half, from a midfield scrum a break was made down the right hand touch and Waisake Naholo dotted down to secure a 14-7 lead.
Samoa A narrowed that lead with a James Sooialo penalty minutes before the break and they looked to grab the lead just on half-time when a drive at the line went over – but referee Nick Briant ruled it held up.
Samoa opened the second half with Sooialo penalty, closing the deficit to 14-13 and then went about exerting all sorts of pressure on the Blues.
With rushing defence and hard work at the break down they forced a number of errors and penalties – Sooialo missing a chance to take the lead in the 50th minute as his kick at goal fell clear.
The Blues defence was strong, a number of Samoa breaks were quelled with solid covering defence but on the other hand the home team could not make anything work on attack.
Samoa A finally reclaimed the lead mid way through the second half with a penalty, which the Blues took back with a penalty of their own with just 10 minutes to play.
The Blues exerted a lot of pressure in the closing 10 minutes but everything they threw at the Samoans was repelled.
Sooialo missed a penalty with minutes to play and when the Blues were penalised with time up on the clock the kicking duties were handed to first five-eighths Ki Anufe.
Anufe made no mistake, slotting the penalty and securing the 19-17 win, much to the delight of the boisterous crowd. Blues Development coach Bevan Cadwallader said his team was unable to match the energy of Samoa.
"We were out-passioned by a high energy team. They made their own luck and really forced us to make uncharacteristic errors.
"It is a hugely disappointing result, we were inaccurate and lacked internal discipline – we will have to put things right this weekend," said Cadwallader.

The following is reprinted from the Tri-County News Oct. 3, 2002.
Highway No. 15 North, remains bad in spite of State Dept. promise
Below is printed an item which appeared as an editorial in the St. Cloud Journal-Press in September 1925, and it is reprinted here as it seems a fitting reminder of the condition of that portion of Trunk Highway No. 15 lying north out of Kimball when it was under local control, in view of the fact that the road is now listed in all state highway road condition bulletins as "impassable".
Frequently many highways may become impassable because of extraordinary and unusual weather conditions but how can the Highway Department excuse itself for allowing an important link in the Trunk highway system, such as the stretch from Kimball to Luxemburg to become impassable because of a lack of either building, or proper maintenance? The men employed on maintenance of this stretch have accomplished all that anyone could with the equipment that they have been furnished, but from allowing the grade to wear down over a period of years, to such an extent that it becomes a "canal", with the previous ditches higher than the road bed, it is impossible to maintain the road without grading by heavy maintenance equipment.

Confederate General Braxton Bragg sent Lieutenant General James Longstreet's corps from the Chattanooga area to face Federal Major General Ambrose Burnside's forces in east Tennessee in an effort to retrieve the Knoxville area into Confederate hands and re-establish communication with Virginia. Because Federal Major General William T. Sherman's forces were still en route from Vicksburg, Miss., and had not arrived in Chattanooga yet, Major General Ulysses Grant knew that he could not act upon Chattanooga and had no reinforcements to offer to Burnside. Burnside would have to hold on as best as he could.
Confederate President Jefferson Davis visited James Island along with the forts and batteries around Charleston Harbor, S.C.

Free standard shipping on full-size orders $50+
The product that has had the most radical (positive) effect on our beauty regimen isn't a miracle cream or a long-wearing lipstick. It's a piece of super soft elastic. Twistbands are a permanent fixture in the Birchbox office—on staffers' wrists, in their ponytails, and even decorating their water bottles. We're fans because they keep hair secure without snagging strands or leaving behind ugly creases. (And because they're cute, of course.) This exclusive set includes 15 of our favorites, from lace to neon varieties, plus three holiday-appropriate headbands.
I don't think these are any better than any similar product sold at any drug store or discount store. I do end up with dents in my hair from the headbands. They are cute, and work well. I'm just not sure they are worth the extra cost.
I have extremely fine hair and I find that sometimes the bands fall right out. Especially if I use the larger bands for sports to hold my hair in place. I'm not in love with this product at all.
Super cute and trendy without leaving creases in your hair. I love wearing them around my wrist... I always get so many compliments on them throughout my day! As a teacher I don't have time throughout my day to go hunting for hairbands when I need them. This is the perfect solution! Stays on my wrist until I need it and doesn't ruin my hair for any after work plans I may have.
i have received this product in more than one birch box. i love them so much that i have at least twenty of them. they have replaced my old black rubber hair ties! they also don't leave a crease if i leave one in my hair when its wet.
I received a twistband in my holiday birchbox and i love how it doesn't crease my hair at all! I use it all the time when i straighten my hair but want to have it up without creasing. I bought a package of these and they are my new favorite hair ties.
I love this pack. I wish there were more hairband packages cause I would scoop them all up. LOVE them and get lots of compliments even when I wear at my very conservative job.
I bought these for my 13-year-old daughter, but now I wish I'd bought some for myself as well. They are smaller than I expected from the online photos, but I'm not disappointed by their size. They hold her braid or pony tail well and don't pinch.
I think they are cute & love the variety. The hold is okay but they stretch out and then they don't hold well. The headbands did not stay on my head but I have trouble with all headbands staying on so I just use that as ponytails and wrap them a lot.
I love this sampler box, gave me all the options to test out the hair pieces that I love. Of course though... I feel in love with all of them! Uh oh...
I ordered this assorted hair tie collection. The colors were great. Got everything from neon to metallics. Although they claim to not create creases in your hair, they do on mine. But I have thick hair so I have to have a tight tie or else it just falls right out of my hair. But they are totally cute. And when you wear them on your wrist, people think it's some sort of bracelet! haha

Posted: 12:19 p.m. Friday, Aug. 21, 2009
By Jamie Dupree
One of the thornier arguments right now about health care reform legislation in the Congress is whether it would allow for government money to go to pay for the coverage of illegal immigrants in the United States.
When you search through the bill, there really isn't much that mentions illegal immigrants, legal residents or anything about those who aren't U.S. citizens.
While I have said that repeatedly on the air, some of my listeners claim the exact opposite in their own blogs.
"I could be wrong, but I swear I heard Jamie Dupree mention on the Neal Boortz show yesterday that the proposed health care reform was setting up a system to cover the medical costs of illegal aliens by reducing coverage of senior citizens and the senior citizens should be unhappy," said one.
All I could say to that is, "Wow." Let's just be clear: I never said that - and never said anything close to that.
From my own examination of this bill, there are no new special loopholes set up that would allow illegal immigrants to get health care paid for by American taxpayers.
What do Democrats and the President say about this issue?
"Everybody who's listening out there, when you start hearing that somehow this is all designed to provide health insurance to illegal immigrants, that is simply not true and it has never been the case," the President told a radio talk show last week.
Mr. Obama though did acknowledge that hospitals still would accept illegals who need emergency treatment. That is current law, as treatment of illegals is funded through Medicaid.
Currently, illegals can get non-emergency medical care in the US, but only if they pay the bill. That doesn't seem to change in this bill, but it's certainly being heatedly debated.
As I said above, there are hardly any mentions of illegal immigrants in the health reform bill. The word "illegal" isn't found in the over 1,000 page bill approved by the House Energy and Commerce Committee.
The only mention of the term "legal resident" is on page 817, which is a technical correction to the S-CHIP law approved earlier this year on children's health insurance programs.
It replaces the term "legal residents" with the phrase "lawfully residing in the United States." Why that change was needed, I'm not sure, but that's what I found in the health reform bill text.
The word "immigrant" is not in the bill once. It appears as part of the term "nonimmigrant" on page 132.
That is Section 242, which is on "Affordbale Credit Eligible Individual." It specifically says those credits are available only to "an individual who is lawfully present in a State in the United States (other than a nonimmigrant described in a subparagraph (excluding subparagraphs (K), (T), (U), and (V)) of section 101(a)(15) of the Immigration and Nationality Act."
That's a mouthful of legalese, so let's try to break it down.
This paragraph seems to say that illegal immigrants are barred from getting federal aid to pay health care premiums, but there are four exceptions.
To find those, I had to look up the Immigration and Nationality Act, which was as byzantine as the health reform bill. You can find these provisions at http://www.visaportal.com/page.asp?page_id=139
Subsection (K) deals with fiancees of a U.S. citizen, a foreigner married to a U.S. citizen and the minor child of such a married couple.
Subsection (T) is an alien (under 18) who has been the victim of sex trafficking, involuntary servitude, debt bondage or slavery, and would suffer "extreme hardship" if sent back to their native country.
Subsection (U) deals with aliens who have "suffered substantial physical or mental abuse as a result of having been a victim of criminal activity," dealing with rape, incest and much more as described in immigration law.
Subsection (V) deals with aliens who have filed a petition with the US to join their family members in the US, according to an immigration law approved by Congress in 2000. That petition must still be pending with US officials.
Those don't seem to be giant loopholes, but I will let you make that determination.
Next in Section 246 of the bill, which is entitled, "No Federal payment for undocumented aliens," there is a specific citation which does not allow illegals to get government subsidies to help them pay for health reform.
"Nothing in this subtitle shall allow Federal payments for affordability credits on behalf of individuals who are not lawfully present in the United States," the bill text states.
That's it. There isn't anything else in the bill addressing illegal immigrants.
Now I know lots of people claim that the bill leaves open the avenue for taxpayers to pay for health care of illegal immigrants. Neal Boortz said because the bill doesn't expressly prohibit it, then it's okay.
But if you go down that road, then a lot of things would be possible, because they weren't specifically mentioned in the bill, like health care for space aliens. That's not ruled out in the bill expressly.
As always, if you find something else related to this subject of illegal immigration, let me know. I'm happy to keep exploring the possibilities.
Illegal immigration is a hot button issue, one that has put Democrats on the defensive repeatedly in recent years, and has some Dems backpedaling a bit on health reform.
But if you're looking for a "smoking gun" in this bill on opening new avenues to have illegal immigrant health care paid for by taxpayers, it may be that there's nothing really like that in the current reform legislation.

Healthcare Reform Then, and Now
One of the things standalone hospitals and smaller systems can do is approach large systems in the area and ask to collaborate on quality.
"Even though we may be competitors economically, we shouldn't be competitors in quality," says Wallace, adding that he's fully aware that some larger systems may be
hesitant to do this.
"But you can at least share in some of the quality improvement things you're working on and look at protocols. That's medical knowledge, and some larger organizations have developed those tools."
Even as a large organization, Intermountain is convinced that the key to financial success is to focus on quality care delivery, says Wallace.
"If we're only focusing on economics, we'll fall short."

Comments: This unit is great, I'm 6ft 8ins tall and this unit sill has room for a taller person, I've used it every day now and everything works great, easy to setup, easy directions for use of it. It's very quiet so as it doesn't bother anyone in the same room. So far the only problem is the speakers need to be fixed. Very happy.

Wadia started life decades ago as a strictly high-end digital company, and though the iPod is the main attraction these days, has not forgotten their roots.

Yahoo axes music service, strikes deal with Rhapsody

In mid-2008, Yahoo Music Unlimited subscribers will be guided through an in-browser process to convert their music libraries to Rhapsody's service. For a limited time (length unknown), they'll be able to keep paying Yahoo's subscription fees, which cap out at $8.99 per month, before being required … Read more

Stylus for wax tablets
Roman stilus – the stylus
It is quite a special feeling when the point of the cool stylus (lat. stilus), forged of bronze, brass or iron, carves into the soft beeswax of the wax tablet: letters, Roman numerals or simple notes or shopping lists, even love letters in wax will acquire thus quite a personal, unmistakeable look!
And if you don't like any more what was written, then turn around the stylus and smooth the wax with the flattened end to write on the wax tablet again. For the stylus is pointed at one end and flattened at the other. A Roman writing stylus consists usually of metal, bone or, for children, as well of wood.
The expression 'tabula rasa' means, by the way, 'erased wax tablet' - or today, 'blank slate.'
