What's New New Study Examines Links Between Sea Surface Carbon Pool and Sea Spray Aerosol
In a paper published recently in Nature Geoscience PMEL Atmospheric Chemistry group, led by Dr. Patricia Quinn, and others show that the organic carbon content of sea spray aerosol (produced by breaking waves on the ocean surface) was similar in all regions sampled, regardless of the presence or absence of plankton blooms. Previously, all large scale climate models have used chlorophyll-a, a proxy for plankton biomass, to predict the organic carbon content of sea spray aerosol. This study concludes that this method will lead to inaccurate predictions. For more information on this study please visit the Nature Geoscience website to download the full paper.

The chiseled, hung, straight superstar makes his Hot House debut in a sizzling Backroom Exclusive Video shot in a sunny loft in San Francisco. Cody takes his time getting naked and working his fat cock until he blows his load.

The Red Sox will start 2013 with their third manager in as many years. To end that George Steinbrenner-like disarray, the next choice must be a good one.
John Farrell, who has had a rocky two seasons as Toronto's manager after spending five years as Red Sox pitching coach, may be the team's first choice if the Blue Jays are willing to let him go.
Bogar could get the job after helping to push Valentine out the door. Or the Sox could conduct yet another search and bring a group of candidates to Fenway Park.
A quick decision is paramount. The Red Sox went two months without a manager last season and that backfired. There's a lot of work to be done, and whoever takes on Boston's most demanding job needs to get started.

newtothis, I'm the Moderator of the Whatbird Forums. There was a small issue with your post that I corrected. You had your album marked as private and I changed it to public. You can clearly have a private Gallery if you choose to, but since you posted this bird for identification, I believe that you intended for this to be available for public views.

For your American Robin, note:
Yellow beak, black head, rusty breast ... but particularly, notice how the eye ring looks like a "target". That set of features is pretty unique.
Happy birding! and welcome to a fun habit!

They are a very common bird and you will see plenty of them throughout most of the US.

The New River is our treasure
Dylan Lightfoot
Staff Writer
Citizens and taxpayers of Ashe County, we must protect our valuable God given asset and national treasure, the New River. It is only one of two rivers in the world to flow northward. We are so lucky to have it in Ashe County. we swim in it, picnic alongside it, paint it, admire it, and of course fish in it.
If we allow any type of obstruction to the New River, we will regret it, and there will be no turning back after the damage is done. The New River is ours. Let's take a stand to save it.

Dear Editor,
On behalf of the Canadian Cancer Society, thank you for your coverage of this year's Cops for Cancer Tour de Coast. With your support, the four B.C. tours raised more than $2 million and still counting — bringing our 15 year provincial total to more than $29 million. Your coverage had a direct impact on the overall success of the tours.
Cops for Cancer donations allow the society to invest in pediatric cancer research, deliver information and operate support programs that improve the lives of children with cancer, survivors and their families — like Camp Goodtimes, the acclaimed summer camp at Loon Lake in Maple Ridge, B.C. Donations are also used to provide financial aid for travel, accommodation and cancer drugs.
The Canadian Cancer Society is the largest national charitable funder of pediatric cancer research. Cops for Cancer is the largest contributor to pediatric cancer research.
The society fights all cancers by working to eradicate cancer and improve the quality of life for people living with the disease. With your support, we know we can continue working to achieve our mission.
For further information, visit our website at www.cancer.ca where you'll find up-to-date information about cancer and recent cancer statistics.
Once again, thank you. We look forward to working with you again soon.
Sarah Ripplinger

Does anyone know where I can buy birch logs - approx. 6 - 7' long for decorating purposes, in the GTA?
Lots of paper birch and black birch logs are available at our tree farm; pl. contact me at 905 648 1911 ext 231. Peter Braun
I just saw some at a Home Hardware Store in Cambridge, ON. They were on the skinny size but tall like 5 to 6 feet that you can put into an urn or large pot. They were on Christmas clearance as well but still abit expensive - about $15 I think.
Just remembered Sheridan Nursery in Kitchener, ON also had them before Christmas.

Good product, poor packagingshipping Jeremy from McKinney, TX– Verified Buyer The bookshelf itself seems fairly sturdy and looks nice for being metal. But it arrived with the packaging falling off and the metal was dented in 2 different places--one place rather badly. Since I ordered this to go in my laundry room for extra storage I decided to just keep it and bang out the dents the best I could with a mallet rather than hassle with shipping it back. If it were going in another room however I would have sent it back as one of the dents is still noticeable. |

High Idle
Hey all, just joined the club, surfing the web and decided to see if there were any Siverado Clubs out there and this is the first one i came across. I have a 2000 Silverado (pictures to come) 1500 Ext Cab 4x4, i bought it in April with just over 107,000 miles on it. Not know what was done mechanically I've slowly been changing "time sensitive" parts, ie, plugs, PCV valve, EGR valve, and I've yet to change the wires. My dilema is after it warms up, it idles around 1100 rpms and just aches for me to let off the brake, don't get me wrong the truck runs like a raped ape, but how do I get it to settle down when I put it in park? (other than turning it off)
09-20-2007, 06:35 PM #2Welcome, Chevyguy. 1100 is high. Thats like fast idle in my trailblazer. Have you had a scanner on it yet?

LECTURE ITHE RELATION BETWEEN LAW AND PUBLIC OPINIONLecture I.My aim in these lectures is to exhibit the close dependence of legislation, and even of the absence of legislation, in England during the nineteenth century upon the varying currents of public opinion.1 The fact of this dependence will be assumed by most students with even too great readiness. We are all of us so accustomed to endow public opinion with a mysterious or almost supernatural power, that we neglect to examine what it is that we mean by public opinion, to measure the true limits of its authority, and to ascertain the mode of its operation. Surprise may indeed be felt, not at the statement that law depends upon opinion, but at this assertion being limited to England, and to England during the last century. The limitation, however, is intentional, and admits of full justification. True indeed it is that the existence and the alteration of human institutions must, in a sense, always and everywhere depend upon the beliefs or feelings, or, in other words, upon the opinion of the society in which such institutions flourish. "As force," writes Hume, "is always on the side of the governed, the governors have nothing to support them but opinion. It is, therefore, on opinion only that government is founded; and this maxim extends to the most despotic and most military governments, as well as to the most free and most popular. The Soldan of Egypt, or the Emperor of Rome, might drive his harmless subjects, like brute beasts, against their sentiments and inclination; but he must, at least, have led his mamelukes, or prætorian bands, like men, by their opinion."1 And so true is this observation that the authority even of a Southern planter over his slaves rested at bottom upon the opinion of the negroes whom he at his pleasure flogged or killed. Their combined physical force exceeded the planter's own personal strength, and the strength of the few whites who might be expected to stand by him. The blacks obeyed the slave-owner from the opinion, whether well or ill founded, that in the long run they would in a contest with their masters have the worst of the fight; and even more from that habit of submission which, though enforced by the occasional punishment of rebels, was grounded upon a number of complicated sentiments, such, for example, as admiration for superior ability and courage, or gratitude for kindness, which cannot by any fair analysis be reduced to a mere form of fear, but constitute a kind of prevalent moral atmosphere. The whites, in short, ruled in virtue of the opinion, entertained by their slaves no less than by themselves, that the slave-owners possessed qualities which gave them the might, and even the right, to be masters. With the rightness or wrongness of this conviction we are not here in any way concerned. Its existence is adduced only as a proof that, even in the most extreme case conceivable, Hume's doctrine holds good, and the opinion of the governed is the real foundation of all government. But, though obedience to law must of necessity be enforced by opinion of some sort, and Hume's paradox thus turns out to be a truism, this statement does not involve the admission that the law of every country is itself the result of what we mean by "public opinion." This term, when used in reference to legislation, is merely a short way of describing the belief or conviction prevalent in a given society that particular laws are beneficial, and therefore ought to be maintained, or that they are harmful, and therefore ought to be modified or repealed. And the assertion that public opinion governs legislation in a particular country, means that laws are there maintained or repealed in accordance with the opinion or wishes of its inhabitants. Now this assertion, though it is, if properly understood, true with regard to England at the present day, is clearly not true of all countries, at all times, and indeed has not always been true even of England. For, in the first place, there exist many communities in which public opinion—if by that term be meant speculative views held by the mass of the people as to the alteration or improvement of their institutions—can hardly be said to have any existence. The members of such societies are influenced by habits rather than by thoughts. Their mode of life is determined by customary rules, which may indeed have originated in the necessities of a given social condition, or even in speculative doctrines entertained by ancient law-givers, but which, whatever be their origin, assuredly owe their continuance to use and wont. It is, in truth, only under the peculiar conditions of an advanced civilisation that opinion dictates legislative change. In many Eastern countries, opinion—which is better described as traditional or instinctive feeling—has for ages been, in general, hostile to change and favourable to the maintenance of inherited habits. There, as in the West, opinion, in a very wide sense of that word, rules; but such aversion to change as for ages keeps a society within the limits of traditional action, is a very different thing from the public opinion which in the England of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries has demanded constant improvements in the law of the land. It is possible, in the second place, to point to realms where laws and institutions have been altered or revolutionised in deference to opinion, but where the beliefs which have guided legislative reform have not been what we mean in England by "public" opinion. They have been, not ideas entertained by the inhabitants of a country, or by the greater part thereof, but convictions held by a small number of men, or even by a single individual who happened to be placed in a position of commanding authority. We must, indeed, remember that no ruler, however powerful, can stand completely alone, and that the despots who have caused or guided revolutions have been influenced by the opinion, if not of their own country, yet of their generation. But it may be asserted with substantial truth that Peter the Great laid the foundation of Russian power without much deference to the opinion of Russia, and that modern Prussia was created by Frederick the Great, who certainly drew his ideas of good government from other than Prussian sources. It was not, then, the public opinion of the Russian people or the public opinion of the Prussians, but the convictions of a single man which in each case moulded the laws and institutions of a powerful country. At this moment legislation in British India is the work of a body of English specialists who follow to a great extent the current of English opinion. They are, indeed, it is to be hoped, guided far more by their own experience and by their practical knowledge of India, than by English sentiment; but Anglo-Indian officials though they may not always obey the transitory feelings of the English public, certainly do not represent Indian public opinion. In the third place, the law of a country may fail, for a time, to represent public opinion owing to the lack of any legislative organ which adequately responds to the sentiment of the age. A portion, at least, of that accumulation of abuses, which was the cause or the occasion of the French Revolution, may fairly be ascribed to the want of any legislative body possessing both the power and the will to carry out reforms which had long been demanded by the intelligence of the French nation. Some critics may, it is true, deny that a legislative organ was lacking: a French king held in his hands under the ancien régime an authority nearly approaching to sovereign power, and an enlightened despot might, it has been suggested, have conferred upon the country all the benefits promised by the Revolution. But the power of the French Crown was practically more limited than modern critics always perceive, whilst the circumstances no less than the character of Louis XV. and Louis XVI. disqualified these monarchs for performing the part of enlightened despots. The "Parliaments," again, which assuredly possessed some legislative power, might, it has been argued, have reformed the laws and institutions of the country. But the Parliaments were after all Courts, not legislatures, and represented the prejudices of lawyers, not the aspirations of reformers; Frenchmen, zealous for the removal of abuses, looked, as a matter of fact, with more hope to the action of the king than to the legislation of Parliaments which represented the antiquated conservatism of a past age. The want, then, of a legislative organ was in France a check upon the influence of public opinion. Nor can it be denied that even in England defective legislative machinery has at times lessened the immediate influence of opinion. The chief cause, no doubt, of the arrest of almost every kind of reform during the latest years of the eighteenth and the earlier part of the nineteenth century, was a state of feeling so hostile to revolution that it forbade the most salutary innovations. But "legislative stagnation," as it has been termed, lasted in England for at least ten or twenty years beyond the date when it ought naturally to have come to an end; and it can hardly be disputed that this delay in the improvement of English institutions was due in part to the defects of the unreformed Parliament—that is, to the non-existence of a satisfactory legislative organ. The close and immediate connection then, which in modern England exists between public opinion and legislation is a very peculiar and noteworthy fact, to which we cannot easily find a parallel. Nowhere have changes in popular convictions or wishes found anything like such rapid and immediate expression in alterations of the law as they have in Great Britain during the nineteenth century, and more especially during the last half thereof. France is the land of revolution, England is renowned for conservatism, but a glance at the legal history of each country suggests the existence of some error in the popular contrast between French mutability and English unchangeableness. In spite of revolutions at Paris, the fundamental provisions of the Code Napoléon have stood to a great extent unaltered since its publication in 1804, and before 1900 the Code had become invested with a sort of legal sanctity which secured it against sudden and sweeping change. In 1804 George the Third was on the throne, and English opinion was then set dead against every legal or political change, yet there is now hardly a part of the English statute-book which between 1804 and the present day has not been changed in form or in substance; and the alterations enacted by Parliament have been equalled or exceeded by innovations due to the judge-made law of the Courts. The United States of America, again, have been under the government of a pure democracy, and in no country is the expression of opinion more free; but the whole history of the United States shows that federal legislation, at any rate, does not lend itself easily to large and sudden changes, nor do alterations introduced by State legislation appear to have been on the whole either fundamental or rapid. This condition of legislative quiescence, it may be objected, is, in the case both of France and of the United States, due to a condition of opinion hostile to legal innovations, and therefore in no way shows that public opinion cannot as easily effect alterations in the law of the land as it can in England, and this suggestion contains a certain amount of truth. The occasional outbreak of revolution has among Frenchmen been unfavourable to that habit of constantly and gradually amending the law, which has become natural to Englishmen, whilst admiration for American institutions and a certain general satisfaction with things as they are, have in the United States created a remarkable kind of legal conservatism. The condition of opinion is, however, not the only reason for the existence of legislative quiescence both in the greatest of European and in the greatest of American Republics. In neither country are there wanting critics of the national institutions, but in neither has effective criticism usually led so easily to legislation as in England. The difficulty imposed by many French constitutions on meeting with rapidity the requirements of public opinion has not only been an excuse for revolutionary violence, but has also hindered the gradual amendment of the law of France; nor is it irrelevant to note that the constitution of the Third Republic renders the Parliament a body which responds more easily to the immediate sentiment of the moment, than any legislature which has existed in France since the National Assembly of 1789, and that simultaneously with this change, a tendency towards the introduction of amendments into the law of the country has begun to make itself apparent. In the United States the Federal Constitution limits the power both of Congress and of the State legislatures; and the hands of any State legislature, be it noted, are tied by the articles, not only of the Federal Constitution, but also of the State Constitution, whilst throughout the United States there exists a tendency to restrict more and more closely the authority of the State representative assemblies. The constitutionalism, then, of the United States, no less than of France, has told against the promotion of that constant legislative activity which is a characteristic feature of modern English life. From whatever point of view, in short, the matter be regarded, it becomes apparent that during the last seventy-five years or more public opinion has exercised in England a direct and immediate control over legislation which it does not even now exert in most other civilised countries. There are, then, to be found three different reasons why we cannot assert of all countries, or of any country at all times, that laws are there the result of public opinion. No "opinion," in the proper sense of that word, with regard to the change of the law may exist; the opinion which does direct the development of the law may not be "public opinion"; and lastly, there may be lacking any legislative organ adapted for carrying out the changes of the law demanded by public opinion. In England, however, the beliefs or sentiments which, during the nineteenth century, have governed the development of the law have in strictness been public opinion, for they have been the wishes and ideas as to legislation held by the people of England, or, to speak with more precision, by the majority of those citizens who have at a given moment taken an effective part in public life. And here the obvious conclusion suggests itself that the public opinion which governs a country is the opinion of the sovereign, whether the sovereign be a monarch, an aristocracy, or the mass of the people. This conclusion, however, though roughly true, cannot be accepted without considerable reservation. The sovereign power may hold that a certain kind of legislation is in itself expedient, but may at the same time be unwilling, or even unable, to carry this conviction into effect, and this from the dread of offending the feelings of subjects who, though they in general take no active share in public affairs, may raise an insuperable opposition to laws which disturb their habits or shock their moral sentiment; it is well indeed, thus early in these lectures, to note that the public opinion which finds expression in legislation is a very complex phenomenon, and often takes the form of a compromise resulting from a conflict between the ideas of the government and the feelings or habits of the governed. This holds good in all countries, whatever be their form of government, but is more manifest than elsewhere in a country such as England, where the legislation enacted by Parliament constantly bears traces of the compromise arrived at between enlightenment and prejudice. The failure of Parliament during the eighteenth century to introduce reasonable reforms, for instance, was due far less to the prejudices of members of Parliament, or even of the electorate, than to the deference which statesmen instinctively, and on the whole wisely, paid to the dulness or stupidity of Englishmen, many of whom had no votes, and were certainly not able to dictate by constitutional means to Parliament. Walpole and his Whig associates were utterly free from bigotry, yet Walpole would never consent to relieve Dissenters from the Test Act, though Dissenters were his most strenuous supporters. The Act facilitating the naturalisation of Jews was, in obedience to popular clamour, repealed in the next session after it had been passed. Even the amendment of the calendar was found to be a matter of great difficulty; the ignorance of the electors was imposed upon by the phrase that they had been robbed of eleven days. The moderate measure of 1778 for the mitigation of the penal laws against Roman Catholics gave rise in 1780 to an outbreak of revolutionary violence; and the Lord George Gordon Riots explain, if they do not justify, the long delay of Catholic Emancipation. But the Roman Catholic Relief Act of 1829 is itself the most striking monument of legislative compromise. The measure was carried by reformers who desired the removal of all the political disabilities under which the Roman Catholics of the United Kingdom suffered, but it contains stringent provisions on the face of them intended to banish from the United Kingdom "every Jesuit and every member of any other religious order, community, or society of the Church of Rome bound by monastic or religious vows."1 How does it happen that a law restoring to Roman Catholics the rights of citizenship, contained penal laws against Jesuits and monks? The answer lies close at hand. The general scope of the Act represents the enlightenment of a governing class which, by favour of peculiar circumstances, carried through a scheme of religious toleration opposed to the prejudices of the people. Penal enactments threatening Jesuits and monks with a banishment, which had never in a single instance been put in force, are the monument of a concession made by parliamentary statesmanship to vulgar bigotry.2 The principle that the development of law depends upon opinion is, however, open to one objection. Men legislate, it may be urged, not in accordance with their opinion as to what is a good law, but in accordance with their interest, and this, it may be added, is emphatically true of classes as contrasted with individuals, and therefore of a country like England, where classes exert a far more potent control over the making of laws than can any single person. Now it must at once be granted that in matters of legislation men are guided in the main by their real or apparent interest. So true is this, that from the inspection of the laws of a country it is often possible to conjecture, and this without much hesitation, what is the class which holds, or has held, predominant power at a given time. No man could cast a glance at the laws and institutions of the middle ages without seeing that power then went with ownership of land. Wherever agriculturalists are predominant you will find laws favouring the cultivators of the soil, and if you discover laws passed for the special benefit of manufacturers or artisans, you may be certain that these classes, in some way or other, are or were of political weight. Who could look into the statute-book of Jamaica or South Carolina without discovering that at one time the whites were despotic masters of the blacks? Who could contrast the English land law with the modern land law of France and fail to perceive that political authority has in England been in the hands of large landowners, and is in the France of to-day in the hands of small proprietors? The criminal law of the eighteenth century, and also many of its trade laws, bear witness to the growing influence of merchants. The free-trade legislation of 1846 and the succeeding years tells us that political authority had come into the hands of manufacturers and traders. Nor would any man, even though he knew not the history of our Parliamentary Reform Acts, hesitate, from the gist of modern statutes, to infer that during the nineteenth century, first the middle classes, then the artisans of our towns, and lastly the country labourers, had obtained an increase of political power. The connection, however, between legislation and the supposed interests of the legislators is so obvious that the topic hardly requires illustration. The answer to the objection under consideration is, however, easy to find. "Though men," to use the words of Hume, "be much governed by interest, yet even interest itself, and all human affairs, are entirely governed by opinion."1 Even, therefore, were we to assume that the persons who have power to make law are solely and wholly influenced by the desire to promote their own personal and selfish interests, yet their view of their interest and therefore their legislation must be determined by their opinion; and hence, where the public has influence, the development of the law must of necessity be governed by public opinion. But though this answer is sufficient, there exists so much misunderstanding as to the connection between men's interests and their beliefs that it is well to pursue the matter a step further. The citizens of a civilised country, such as England, are for the most part not recklessly selfish in the ordinary sense of that word; they wish, no doubt, to promote their own interests—that is; to increase their own pleasures and to diminish their own discomforts, but they certainly do not intend to sacrifice, to their own private advantage or emolument, either the happiness of their neighbours or the welfare of the State. Individuals, indeed, and still more frequently classes, do constantly support laws or institutions which they deem beneficial to themselves, but which certainly are in fact injurious to the rest of the world. But the explanation of this conduct will be found, in nine cases out of ten, to be that men come easily to believe that arrangements agreeable to themselves are beneficial to others. A man's interest gives a bias to his judgment far oftener than it corrupts his heart. The heir of an English landowner is convinced that the law of primogeniture is a blessing to the country, but, if he looks too favourably upon a scheme for the devolution of property, which most Frenchmen consider patently unjust, his "sinister interest" (to use a favourite term of Bentham's) affects him with stupidity rather than with selfishness. He overestimates and keeps constantly before his mind the strength of the arguments in favour of, and underestimates, or never considers at all, the force of the arguments against, the principle of primogeniture which, whatever its evils, confers upon him a large estate and an influential position. English manufacturers were sincere believers in protection as long as they thought it beneficial to trade, and became equally sincere enthusiasts for freedom of trade from the moment they were convinced that free trade in corn would be favourable to commerce and would give additional weight to the manufacturing interest. Landlords and farmers who found their gain in keeping up the price of corn were in general perfectly honest protectionists, and were convinced that protection, by rendering the country self-supporting and extending the sphere of agriculture, was of the greatest benefit to the nation. At this day an artisan who holds that the welfare of working men, in which his own prosperity is included, is promoted by trade-unionism, is honestly convinced that there can be little evil in practices which, though they certainly trench upon the personal freedom of individual workmen, enhance the authority of trade unions. It is well to insist upon the true relation between self-interest and belief, because ardent reformers, and notably Bentham and his disciples, have at times misunderstood it, and have used language which implied that every opponent of progress was, if not a fool, then a rogue, who deliberately preferred his own private advantage to the general benefit of mankind, whereas in reality he will be found in most cases to have been an honest man of average ability, who has opposed a beneficial change not through exceptional selfishness, but through some intellectual delusion unconsciously created by the bias of a sinister interest. Take the extreme case of American slave-owners. It will not be denied that, at the outbreak of the War of Secession, there were to be found in the South many fervent enthusiasts for slavery (or rather for the social system of which it was a necessary part), just as there were to be found in the North a far greater number of ardent enthusiasts for abolition. Some Southerners at least did undoubtedly hold the bona fide belief that slavery was the source of benefit, not only to the planters, but to the slaves, and indirectly to the whole civilised world. Such Southern fanatics were wrong and the Abolitionists were right. The faith in slavery was a delusion; but a delusion, however largely the result of self-interest, is still an intellectual error, and a different thing from callous selfishness. It is at any rate an opinion. In the case, therefore, of Southerners who resisted the passing of any law for the abolition of slavery, as in all similar instances, we are justified in saying that it is at bottom opinion which controls legislation.

Price versus Value
Posted by: Derek Kuhr
In these times, price seems to be coming up more and more in discussions with customers. I understand that companies of various sizes, markets, and geographies are seeing different levels and types of impact from the economic challenges of late, but I'm not an economist and won't dwell on that. What I am concerned about is that the "Value" proposition is often left out or not fully articulated frequently today.
I have a customer who's owned Microsoft SMS for over 2 years, but never deployed due to time and some architectural issues with their network. A year ago, we sat down and did a design session to deploy SCCM across the company and allow them to centrally manage their systems. By manage in this case, I mean:
- Application Inventory for license auditing
- Patch Management
- Application Deployment
- Desktop/Server image automation
- Remote desktop support
- Application virtualization
- And other areas
We worked up a proposal and had a verbal that they would like to go forward pending some other projects getting done first. Then the economic issues came up and they went on a spending freeze. At their request, we worked up a smaller project to get the base infrastructure out and allow them to turn one some of the easy pieces and get their inventory going to allow them to proactively manage some 3rd party licensing costs.
Things seemed to be turning around for them and we re-engaged to start the process of kicking the process off. Then, before we could start the wheels rolling, a segment of the IT staff found a couple alternative product to do inventory and application deployment. The alternative products were less expensive on paper, had direct integration with their help desk/ticketing system, and was said said be installed and functional within an hour… The later of these three items put up a red flag for me.
So, at this point, what was a done deal turned into a competitive situation. Just to be clear, the customer has an Enterprise Agreement with another vendor. On paper, we're just in this project for services and possibly some hardware. In the bigger scheme of things, I've spent a lot of time with the customer over the past couple of years helping them streamline some things and offering advice on how to simplify and improve things to be more stable and more manageable. The alternative product uses tools and practices that my experience have shown to be less stable and less predictable than SMS/SCCM.
We quickly went into compete mode and sent a feature/function/cost spreadsheet back and forth a couple times to pull together a reactive answer to why the more expensive product was better. There was item missing from the conversation, value… The customer is making a decision this week, and luckily they did offer an opportunity earlier this week to come in and do a demo of SCCM and talk about some of the differences, beyond the magic spreadsheet. The reality is that the pricing that was in the original comparison was inaccurate and did not take into account all the other functionality that SCCM has to offer, in particular around baseline configuration checking and operating system deployment. OS deployment was the majority of the project originally proposed, as it would mark a fundamental shift in how desktop deployment and life-cycle for the customer. This shift alone adds significant value to the proposition and increases the ROI.
So what is "Value"? In my mind, value can be demonstrated easiest by articulating the following aspects.
- TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) – You need to be able to show how over time, the proposed option will either drive down TCO. In this case, it's about setting desktop standards, implementing them with common images, and maintaining them from a single console. The result is a simplified support experience, fewer support issues, increased user productivity, and the ability to provide an SLA for desktop support. Those are just a few items, but you need to go deeper and explain each point and back them up with solid numbers.
- ROI (Return on Investment) – In many cases, you may need to demonstrate how quickly the initial price will return enough savings to have paid for its self. This may be a simple calculations of how many fewer staff need hired multiplied against the average salary+benefits costs divided by the initial purchase price. It may be something more complicated as well, as some solutions will have a way of making money for a customer depending on the scenario and if it's customer facing or internal facing.
- Productivity – This can be hard to build solid numbers around at times, but it is something to be prepared to talk about. This may be a matter of calculating how many more transactions can be processed during a day or how many fewer support tickets are generated in a week. This is all relative to the solution and other systems/solutions that may be indirectly impacted at times.
Ultimately, I don't believe in recommending a product to a customer simply because it is what we have on the shelf or what I read in a book. If you struggle to position the value of a solution to a customer, either the solution doesn't fit or you need to work on your knowledge of the solution. I realize I am not an expert on everything, and I will walk away from opportunities at times because either it is in the best interest of the customer to go elsewhere or the solution I have to offer doesn't provide the value the customer needs. The ability to not "sell" to a customer at times can provide a different value to your own organization in customer respect and appreciation. There is also value to yourself and/or your organization in not risking the customer relationship by missing the value proposition and focusing on feature/function/price. That value is customer loyalty over the years. Along those same lines, it doesn't do any good to try forcing the best solution on a customer if they actually don't have the pockets for it. In those cases, you may need to either walk away or work with them to narrow in the requirements and try defining a solution that hits their key requirements, without all the fuzzy stuff around the edges.
Back to my delima, I think we managed to demonstrate the value to the key people, but we won't know the answer to that until next week. In the meantime, was a good exercise to go through the value again and refresh my memory, since it's been a while since I've had those discussions.
Lessons learned
- Positioning on value should overcome selling on price if done properly and within reason.
- If you can't effectively position value for a solution, it may not be the right solution for the scenario, you may need to work on your knowledge of the solution, or the customer may really be focused on the price and that was missed during the discovery phase.
Another day gone
I hope this has been a useful post. Look for more soon. Until then, keep on learning!

Prescribed burning is a common management practice in prairie reconstructions, but many entomologists are concerned about the impact of burning on insect populations. The effect of fire on insects has been studied on remnant prairies, but little research has been done on reconstructed prairies, especially the first years after planting. This study examines how spring and fall prescribed burns affect the abundance and community composition of grasshoppers (Acrididae) and ground beetles (Carabidae) in a recent prairie planting.

Exchange: | NASDAQ national market |
Stock: | Ross Stores, Inc. |
Industry: | Apparel Stores |
Employees: | 57,500 |
Ross Stores, Inc., is a Delaware Corporation. It turned public with its IPO in August 1985. The Company and its subsidiaries operates two brands of off-price retail apparel and home fashion stores. It is the off-price apparel and home fashion chain in the United States, with 1,091 locations in 33 states, At February 2, 2013, the company operated a total of 1,199 stores, of which 1,091 were Ross locations in 33 states, the District of Columbia and Guam, and 108 were dd's DISCOUNTS stores in eight states. Both brands target value-conscious women and men between the ages of 18 and 54. Ross target customers are mainly from middle income households, while dd's DISCOUNTS target customers are typically from more moderate income households. The decisions the Company makes, from merchandising, purchasing, and pricing, to the locations of its stores, are based on these customer profiles. It offers first-quality, in-season, name brand and designer apparel, accessories, footwear, and home fashions for the entire family at everyday savings of 20% to 60% off department and specialty store regular prices. dd's DISCOUNTS features a more moderately-priced assortment of first-quality, in-season, name brand apparel, accessories, footwear, and home fashions for the entire family at everyday savings of 20% to 70% off moderate department and discount store regular prices. The Company seeks to provide its customers with a wide assortment of first-quality, in-season, brand name and designer apparel, accessories, footwear, and home merchandise for the entire family at everyday savings of 20% to 60% below department and specialty store regular prices at Ross, and 20% to 70% below moderate department and discount store regular prices at dd's DISCOUNTS. The trademarks for Ross Dress For Less® and dd's DISCOUNTS® have been registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The Company faces a challenging macro-economic and retail environment that creates intense competition for business from department stores, specialty stores, discount stores, warehouse stores, other off-price retailers, and manufacturer-owned outlet stores, many of which are units of large national or regional chains that have substantially greater resources. It also competes to some degree with retailers that sell apparel and home fashions through catalogs or over the internet. The retail apparel and home-related businesses may become even more competitive in the future. |

Is that a GATOR Case? Or SKB?
...were two Millennia Media HV-3Bs (one with the high voltage option for the DPA 4003s) and an older HV-3. There are very low noise, which is essential when you use distant miking for relatively quiet sound sources. These were palced out in the hall, fairly close to the mikes, with line-level signals running the 75' to the control booth at the back of the hall.
I was just gonna comment, i realize it ain't no GATOR, cus' all the one's I've seen say GATOR in the case, and don't have that screw visible there BUT, guess where my GATORS are made?....CHINA, but to GATOR standards, not some knockoff. Handy to store extra stuff in, keeps em clean, BUT with an 8U with 2 DH500 Haflers in em, forgetaboutid....the thing weighs way to much, gotta split the loads, make the stuff manageable, a bunch of mic amps or small signal processors are fine to load up in a larger case. SKB looks like a stronger type, from the one's I've seen, GATOR does the job for my spare stuff for storage. Everything should be RACK MOUNT, universal standard, i could neatin' up this stuff here in a nice rack one of these days.

Welcome back to MN, tough age for your son to be changing his whole life around, hope he is adjusting well, I'm in the Litchfield area, fish mostly Koronis and Rice in the Paynesville area. August is a busy month for me, getting a 20year old off to England for a year of study abroud and a 21 year old graduated in Dececember and into the world of work and responsibillity(paying off those school loans). FALL is just around the corner, great fishing, hunting, cooler temps and NO bugs, maybe try and get together, haven't done any longer distance travel this year, just don't feel the need to make the oil companies any richer. Again, WELCOME back to MN!!
Something to add, go to http://www.lakestatefishing.com and log in and make contact with fellow sportspersons there. I'm my4x4yj there, what I used to be here, by far more MN info put up and hashed around there than here, this NAFC forums page use has really declined since the change over to the new style.
Life Member since March 1998, LIfe Member NAHC always looking for an excuse to go hunting or fishing
Welcome home fishinandsmiling ! I grew up in central Minn near Brainerd....currently live on the Wisconsin side of the Mississippi River. How close are ya to these 2 areas?
If you can tell me the lake near Mille Lacs that you're on I MAY be able to give you some pointers.
Most lakes around the Twin Cities get a lot of boat traffic....but that doesn't mean you can't get fish....you just have to adjust your tactics a little.
Or maybe fish the rivers there.
The cabin is on Little White fish lake. Its just north of the Milacs casino about 3 miles just on the west side of 169. We catch pan fish, bass and a few good size northerns but thats about it . I have caught one walleye thats it. I wish I could figure out how to catch walleyes on this lake. Also I wish we could figure out how to catch more fish in the later summer. Seems like after the 4th of July the fishing really dies off and dosent pic up again till spring.
I hope I don't offend you by doing this...but take a look at the lake specifics on the Minn DNR page for this lake....and tell me why your walleye catch rate is so low...
The DNR told my father inlaw that there were more walleyes in that lake per square foot than milacs. Looks like he was a big fat lier. I would have to say that the numbers on that page match up with the fish we catch. We catch alot of cappies, sunnys, bass and northern are there but not a ton. I would have to say the bow fin numbers I think are higher than noted we kill every one of those things we catch the same with the bull heads and carp. I still wish we could find more fish in the later summer mounths.
Good read
There's a couple of things you are missing on this lake though
First off....at roughly 700 acres (about a square mile)...this lake can EASILY be fished down by "meat eaters"...which can keep populations of eater fish like walleye low. In the Midwest....there are SEVERAL small lakes that get pounded by experienced anglers who KNOW where AND how to catch them.
At the same time, there are several cabins on the lake...AND a resort....so that also plays into your situation.....since there CAN be a lot of pleasure craft on the water during the day.
Pike ARE a good eat...especially in the 3 - 5 lb range....just watch for the bones.
I CAN give you some pointers about after July...the biggest thing you are dealing with is water temp. That said, you will have to fish deeper...or in THICK weeds to find fish.
If you PM me....I will give you a few other tips about this

When a disgruntled resident who had recently lost a dispute regarding his property went into the Ross Township, Pa. supervisors meeting in August and opened fire, killing three and wounding two, people took notice.
That includes the Pleasant Township supervisors.
"We decided that for (Secretary/Treasurer) Lea Ann's (Adams) security, our security, we should have a constable or somebody here," Township Supervisor Ron Hultman said during the Tuesday meeting of the supervisors. "If someone comes in with a gun, we're going to have (law enforcement.) It scares me. We're going to have a constable here every meeting."
Township Chairman Arden Knapp said that the state Constitution does not allow the supervisors to ban firearms at township meetings.
While the supervisors cannot restrict firearms, Hultman noted residents can not take firearms into the courthouse or jail.
"Rather than us carry, we figure we'd have the constable at every meeting," Supervisor John Phillips added.
Pennsylvania State Constable Donald Saporito, in attendance on Tuesday, said that "we do provide security, but this is kind of new."
Hultman explained that he believes a constable can be a deterrent in limiting potentially dangerous situations.


text: Lawyers for detainees at Guantanamo have previously raised concerns with practices used at the prison. Last November, lawyers complained specifically about the infringement on attorney-client privilege [JURIST report] in a letter directed to the attention of the Deputy Secretary of Defense for Detainee Affairs. The attorneys alleged that those working with the JTF-GTMO seize, open, interpret, read and review attorney-client privileged communications, actions which the attorneys argued are unlawful. Also in November J. Wells Dixon, Senior Staff Attorney for the Guantanamo Global Justice Initiative at the Center for Constitutional Rights, wrote that there is a systematic dysfunction within the bureaucracy of the Guantanamo Bay detention facility that impacts the capability of attorneys to adequately represent their clients: "Having traveled to Guantanamo numerous times over many years to meet with men detained there, it comes as no surprise to me that someone, somewhere in the bureaucracy of Guantanamo, ordered a disruptive and ultimately needless examination of legal papers and correspondence kept by detainees, including materials clearly marked as privileged." This month marks the tenth anniversary of detention operations at Guantanamo Bay [JURIST report].

The entire Zend_Loader package is currently designed to only work with non-namespaced class names (pre 5.3). These improvements will modify all components of the package to work for both the existing class naming format as well as actual PHP 5.3 namespaces.Zend Framework: Zend_Loader Improvements Component Proposal
Proposed Component Name
Zend_Loader Improvements
Developer Notes
http://framework.zend.com/wiki/display/ZFDEV/Zend_Loader Improvements
Court Ewing
Zend Liaison
1.0 - 1 January 2008: Initial Draft. (wiki revision: 2)
Table of Contents
1. Overview
2. References
3. Component Requirements, Constraints, and Acceptance Criteria
- This component will be backwards compatible
- This component will not change the current workflow when working with the existing package
- This component will allow traditional and modern namespaces to be used simultaneously for autoloading and pluginloading
4. Dependencies on Other Framework Components
No additional dependencies
5. Theory of Operation
The use of underscores and namespace separators should be fairly interchangeable; at the very least, they can both map directly to a directory structure. The improvements on Zend_Loader will make it so libraries utilizing namespaces from PHP 5.3 can be used in conjunction with Zend Framework without requiring an entirely new autoloader implementation.
Namespaced classes will also be able to be registered with the pluginloader so modern class definitions can be used for custom helpers, filters, etc.
6. Milestones / Tasks
- [DONE] Milestone 1: Write proposal
- Milestone 2: Develop use cases
- Milestone 3: Gather feedback and apply changes
- Milestone 4: Write unit tests
- Milestone 5: Refactor existing classes
7. Class Index
- Zend_Loader
- Zend_Autoloader
- Zend_PluginLoader
- Zend_Autoloader_Resource
8. Use Cases
Use cases being developed per Milestone 2.
9. Class Skeletons
Class skeletons should not differ from current Zend_Loader skeletons

Lots of luck, Derek. If I had only known about Toastmasters years ago, I could have had more fun, improved my communication skills, and impressed lots more people sooner. Menlo Park Toastmasters club meets Wednesday evenings in downtown Menlo Park. Keep us informed, so that we can celebrate there when you get your dream job.
on Jun 22, 2007 at 9:32 pm
I joined Toastmasters about a year ago and I've given about 10 speeches. I noticed that I'm more confident and comfortable in speaking in a professional setting. I also found that it's really helpful when you get to practice weekly public speaking and thinking on your feet. Plus it's fun. I would recommend Toastmasters to anyone!
