Sorry for the delay. busy time. anyway lets get to it.
Ladies and Gentleman....Big Slam!
Bobcats Planet name: Big Slam
Real name (first only): Joel
Age: 33
Current City: Ottawa, Canada
Hometown: Melbourne, Australia
Occupation: Account Manager for a printing firm
1) How did you choose your screen name?
Slam is a nickname my mates gave me and have called me by for years and years. Im 67 and back in the day used to be able to get up a bit. I pulled a ring or two down during different games and busted a backboard once so guys started calling me Slam. Blew both my ankles out years and years ago so the nickname isnt as fitting any more because I cant get up like I could back then!!
2) Could you tell us a little about where you grew up and about your family?
Grew up in Australia, youngest of three kids (two older sisters). Moved to Ottawa 3 years ago just before my 30th birthday. Im married now and have two daughters (one who is 1 ½ and the other who is 8 weeks old)
3) Did you play in any sports or where you involved with any High School clubs and such?
Ive always played a lot of sports. Australian Rules Football, Basketball, Tennis, Squash, Golf, I swam competitively and I in-line skated (free style) for fun. I represented my town in sports, my state in sports and my high school in sports.
4) What is your fondest memory of your teenage years?
Playing Sonic the Hedgehog with my buddies until the sun came up on Sega Mega Drive.
5) What was your first job?
I think a paper round every night after school was my first actual paying job.
6) What lead to your dedicated following of the Bobcat's?
Ive always followed the NBA but never a team. I grew up in the Jordan era, had all his shoes, all his t-shirts and all his posters on my bedroom wall. When I heard about the expansion team I saw it as a great opportunity to put my full support behind one team rather than just a player and be there from the ground up as the team was being built. Threw thick and thin. It helped that one of my best friends from Australia married a chick from NC and 5 of us flew from Australia to the wedding in the USA in 2003. Spent a lot of time around the NC area and fell in love with the place. That, and my mates wife went to UNC so by supporting the team, in a way I was supporting her!
7) Could you tell us one of your favorite memories of the Bobcat's?
There has been a lot! The first win in franchise history against Orlando and Jason Hart handing Top Bob the game winning ball. The triple OT win over the Lakers. Crash going off against the Knicks for 42. Felts taking the game over against the Cavs. EO50s 10 blocks (and almost triple double Darn you Hammer!) against the Knicks. Ammo going crazy stupid against the Wolves. The block Crash made on Etan Thomas when he plucked the ball from the sky. Trading for Swish. Seriously, I love the team way too much for there to be just one!
8 ) How did you find the Bobcats Planet and what keeps you active on the site?
I honestly dont know how I found BCP. There isnt a lot of basketball news up at this end of the world outside of the Raps and no one at work talks NBA so I have to resort to the internet to get my fix on. I dont know if someone mentioned BCP back in the BCF days and thats how I found it, but Im glad I did. Im even more glad that Ziggy updated the place because I think it was painful to post here before the upgrade. It was hard on the eyes and now its slick as hell. The thing that keeps me active is my love for the team and because I am a Bobcats junkie.
9) What other sports teams do you follow?
[FONT='Calibri','sans-serif']Essendon Bombers (Aussie Rules Football: http://www.essendonfc.com.au/main.asp). Ottawa Senators (NHL: http://senators.nhl.com/index.html). Australian Cricket Team (Cricket!!: http://www.cricket.com.au/).
10) When youre not on Bobcats Planet what could you likely be found doing with your spare time?
Playing with my kids, playing Aussie Rules Football, playing PS2 (NBA ,NHL and WWE), surfing RGM or the Observer .or any other place I can find Bobcats info!
11) If you could have one moment being part of the Bobcats organization, what would it be?
Easy. Id be the owner. Id call all the shots and make all of the decisions.
12) How many trips have you made to the Time Warner Cable Arena?
None but hopefully that will change in the next year or two. I want to get down for a game.
13) What is your worst fear?
14) What type of hobbies do you enjoy?
Playing sport and PS2.
15) Whats your favorite food?
Sushi (or all Japanese for that matter)
16) Where are some of the places youve been, and where are some of your favorites.
Indonesia (Bali and Lombok), spent 3 months driving and camping around Australia before coming to Canada (had to see my own back yard before I left it), Seen a bit of Canada but only this side (Ottawa, Toronto, Niagara Falls, Montreal etc). Been to Central Michigan, NYC, Boston, Philly, Syracuse, Atlanta, New Orleans, Arizona, Vegas, LA blah, blah, blah. I was in New Orleans in 2003 before Katrina hit and I have to say that of all the places I have been, that was my favorite. I LOVE the music, I LOVE the atmosphere, I LOVE the food, I LOVE everything about the place. It was my sort of town (I can drink long and hard and am partial to seeing the sun come up after/during a big night on the booze so NO really was my type of town!).
17) What is one thing you've always wanted to do, but haven't done yet in your lifetime?
A standing back flip and land on my feet.
18 )If you could live anywhere where would it be?
Either Ottawa or Melbourne where my family and friends are.
19) Name your favorite 3 Bobcats all time and explain the reason for one of them.
(In no particular order):
Hammer I love that he doesnt p*ss and moan, hes a hard worker, blue collar and works as hard as he does.
Crash Balls and all
EO50 He started with the Bobcats when I did!!
(apologies to Swish who would be in the top 3 if he had been here from the start)
20) Up to this date, what is one of your favorite Bobcats Planet memories?
I really enjoy the draft thread and talking about the college players with the gang. I found that Bug Boy poster who would come by and smash the Bobcats while talking the Hornets up pretty funny.
21) Anything else you'd like to add?
I think this is a great initiative by BCP to get to know each other. Kudos for coming up with it.
Who would you like to nominate to be interviewed next?

Charging issue
I am have Dinc2 from Verizon. In the last week, it has stopped charging normally. Even when it is plugged into AC power it thinks it is plugged into USB power (this can be confirmed from the about phone menu). Also, the charge port is very, very fiddily (which I understand is an issue with this phone). The phone is well over 1 year old. So, I have two questions:
1. Why is it only registering USB power?
2. Anybody know of a decent price on batteries and an external charger for them? This way we could constantly be charging batteries and have one is reserve for when one dies. Thanks. - 02-20-2013, 10:31 PM #2
Re: Charging issue
My wife's Dinc2 stopped charging because of the loose usb port issue. We ended up buying the wireless charging pad and phone back. She's not tech savvy and I didn't want her worrying about swapping batteries. Not sure if you're considering that.

Re: Charging issue
I'd check the big auction website. I'm sure you can get a battery/pack under 5 shipped.

Vitamin B12 is made by neither animals nor plants, but actually is made by microbes. Thankfully, in our sanitized world there are safe, cheap, convenient sources. Vitamin B12 deficiency is common in vegans who don't eat B12 fortified foods or take B12 supplements and can result in paralysis, myelopathy, or psychosis. It is imperative that those eating plant-based diets include B12-fortified foods in their diet or take B12 supplements, especially pregnant or nursing women (see here and here). Testing is not necessary, but supplementing is—it may even increase one's lifespan. The recommended intake is 4-7 micrograms a day (but to get that much in daily or weekly supplements you have to take much more). Raw food diets are no exception to this rule. Omnivores under age 50 are rarely deficient in vitamin B12 (though may be deficient in other nutrients).

Yes, I can boot with a USB plugged in... With "USB emultaion = enabled" it hanged on BIOS splash screen, and since I disabled it, it boot straight.
But you have to know that if you disable USB emulation, you won't be able to boot from any external USB HDD. USB devices are no longer detected by BIOS (Chimera bootloader or F12 on Bios screen).
So you'll only be able to boot from your HDD But it passes the BIOS splash screen even with a USB port plugged in.
AFAIK, I have always been able to boot with a USB plugged in (at least in the USB2.0 port). The fact is that, since I bought a Belkin Bluetooth mini USB dongle, I was unable to boot with it plugged in. It was hanging at the BIOS splash screen, unless I disable the "USB emulation" in BIOS settings...
Ah ok....so thats probably not something which will help my case.Since my boot screen would freeze after having pressed any button in the IAtkos boot menu.

I have a subform that typically contains N+1 child objects: typically 1 header element and N rows. I want to get the number of children, without making assumptions on the number of non-Row children (ie. I don't want the script to break just because a footer element was added). All of the rows have the RO property "name" set to "sfRow" (while the header's name is set to "sfHeader"). So following the lead of other QTP testing domains, I wrote:
Function GetNumRows( testobjSubform )
Dim oMatchingDesc
Set oMatchingDesc = Description.Create()
oMatchingDesc("name").value = "sfRow"
GetNumRows = testobjSubform.ChildObjects( oMatchingDesc ).Count
End Function
This function consistently returns N+1, not the desired N, nor 0 (which would indicate my Description was filtering too much).
So, I assume AcroQTP's implementation of object.ChildObjects( [x] ) is different from all other (example help-doc below) implementations of object.ChildObjects( [x] ). Is this correct?
object.ChildObjects ([Description])
Argument | Description |
object | Any Visual Basic test object. |
Description | Optional. An Object object. The Properties (collection) object containing the description of the objects you want to find. Tip: You can retrieve a Properties collection using the GetTOProperties method or you can build a Properties collection object using the Description object. For more information on the Description object, refer to the Utility section of the QuickTest Professional Object Model Reference. |

'Finley as ever acquits himself as a fine singer, a conscientious artist and a thoroughly reliable musician … Julius Drake is the superb pianist' (Gramophone)
'Gerald Finley sings them all with such an unwaveringly beautiful tone and attention to every syllable, and pianist Julian Drake is so wonderfully attuned to the baritone's inflections … Finley comes into his own in the final Every Night and Every Morn, and Drake's handling of the powerfully wrought accompaniments is superb. Those who have followed them through their series of 20th-century songs for Hyperion (Barber, Ives, Ravel previously) won't be disappointed with this one either' (The Guardian)
'If you want to know, or simply need reminding, why Gerald Finley is up there in the Premier League of baritone recitalists then strike out for the final five songs on this magnificent new recording … [Songs and Proverbs of William Blake] Originally written for Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, Finley proves himself the equal of his noble predecessor, both in expressivity and emotional weight. How good it is to have this difficult music available in such a fine modern performance … It is a mark of the quality of these two fine artists that everything on this new release should sound newly minted' (International Record Review)
'The Canadian baritone has already impressed with his outstanding diction in three albums of North American song for Hyperion. Now he turns to the repertoire that Britten wrote for two of his favourite baritones: Songs and Proverbs of William Blake (Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau) and Tit for Tat (John Shirley-Quirk) … Tit for Tat displays the young composer's prodigious melodic gift and his savour of words. Finley's noble baritone is a richer-coloured instrument than Shirley-Quirk's … In the Blake settings, Finley naturally sounds more at home with the English texts than Fischer-Dieskau ever did … Finley's watchwords are directness and clarity, both of which come across to splendid effect in the folk-song arrangements … Drake is his admirable partner in this outstanding enterprise' (The Sunday Times)
'This marvellous CD showcases the songs Britten wrote for the baritones Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, John Shirley-Quirk and Benjamin Luxon - music that Finley, at the peak of his very considerable powers, makes his own with the pianist Julius Drake … [Songs and Proverbs of William Blake] Finley lends it the very beauty and intelligence and ecstatic vocalism it needs, without the mannerisms of Fischer-Dieskau' (The Financial Times)
'Fischer-Dieskau's recording from 1965 carries massive authority, but this new recording tops it … Everythng [Finley] sings has a feeling of emotional truth, without any artfulness. That's a great asset in these songs … Finley makes Blake's aphorisms ring out with the force of an Old Testament prophet' (The Daily Telegraph)

The unbeatable, multi-award-winning partnership of Gerald Finley and Julius Drake turn to the composer Benjamin Britten for their latest Hyperion release. Although Britten is particularly celebrated for the substantial body of music he composed for the tenor voice, the composer also left an important legacy of music for baritone. Characteristically, Britten's output for low voice was also inspired by the talents of specific performers with whom he was closely associated, among them Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau and John Shirley-Quirk. In addition to song-cycles, individual songs and folksong arrangements, Britten wrote challenging baritone roles in operas as diverse as Billy Budd (1951), Owen Wingrave (1970) and Death in Venice (1972)—the title role of the second of these made very much Gerald Finley's own in his magnificent interpretation in Margaret Williams's 2001 television film of the opera. This disc contains Britten's two important song cycles for baritone: Tit for Tat, setting the poems of Walter de la Mare, and the more substantial and challenging Songs and Proverbs of William Blake. The latter was written for Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau; designed to showcase his unique blend of intense lyricism and dramatic characterization, qualities which are undoubtedly also exhibited by Gerald Finley. Also included are some of Britten's popular folksong settings, and a selection of later songs, which received exposure and publication only after the composer's death in December 1976. |

Introduction |
Although Britten is particularly celebrated for the substantial body of music he composed for the tenor voicealmost all of it directly inspired by the artistry of his long-term partner and creative muse, Peter Pearsthe composer also left an important legacy of music for baritone. Characteristically, Brittens output for low voice was also inspired by the talents of specific performers with whom he was closely associated, among them Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, John Shirley-Quirk, Owen Brannigan and Benjamin Luxon. In addition to song-cycles, individual songs and folksong arrangements, Britten wrote challenging baritone roles in operas as diverse as Billy Budd (1951), Owen Wingrave (1970) and Death in Venice (1972)the title role of the second of these made very much Gerald Finleys own in his magnificent interpretation in Margaret Williamss 2001 television film of the opera. Even when Britten was writing for other singers, however, Pearss influence remained apparent in the composers choice of texts for musical setting, which often reflected the tenors literary tastes as well as Brittens own.
The many poems set to music by Britten when he was a prolific schoolboy composer date from long before he met Pears, and the composers literary choices were at that early stage fairly conservative. Brittens favourite poet during his youth was Walter de la Mare, and in 1968 the mature composer assembled a set of five of his juvenile settings of de la Mares poetry under the title Tit for Tat, which was given its first performance by John Shirley-Quirk and the composer at the Aldeburgh Festival in 1969. In his programme note written for the occasion, Britten commented that he had made his selection from songs composed between the ages of fourteen and seventeen; he said that he had cleaned them very slightly, and here at this first performance, offer them in gratitude to the poets son, the wise and encouraging chairman of my new publishers, whose fathers poems have meant so much to me all through my life. (The reference was to Richard de la Mare, who was celebrating his seventieth birthday in that year, and who had become Chairman of Faber Music in 1966, having previously served as Chairman of the parent company Faber & Faber.) Brittens punctilious attention to detail in his manuscripts meant that all the songs could be dated fairly precisely: A Song of Enchantment was composed in January 1929, Autumn (originally accompanied by string quartet) on 28 January 1931, Silver on 13 June 1928, Vigil on 23 December 1930, and the concluding title song in the first two weeks of 1929. In his preface to the published score, Britten noted that oddly enough, the inadequacies seemed to be more striking in the later songsnew musical styles had appeared on the composers horizon too recently to be assimilated At any rate, although I hold no claims whatever for the songs importance or originality, I do feel that the boys vision has a simplicity and clarity which might have given a little pleasure to the great poet, with his unique insight into a childs mind. Four years before Shirley-Quirk gave the premiere of Tit for Tat, the Aldeburgh Festival had also been the venue for a more substantial and challenging baritone cycle, the Songs and Proverbs of William Blake. Brittens close association with the legendary German baritone Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau began in the early 1960s, and the baritone parts in Brittens War Requiem (1962) and Cantata Misericordium (1963) had been written specifically for him to sing. Shortly afterwards the composer embarked on the composition of a solo song-cycle designed to showcase Fischer-Dieskaus unique blend of intense lyricism and dramatic characterization, and Britten turned for inspiration to the vivid and sometimes visionary poetry of William Blake. Brittens working title for the cyclewhich was based on fourteen short but striking Blake texts selected by Pearswas Songs and Sentences of William Blake. The score was completed on 6 April 1965, the manuscript inscribed with the words For Dieter: the past and the future. The work, under its slightly revised title, was first performed by its dedicatee and composer at Aldeburghs Parish Church on 24 June 1965, and six months later the two men recorded their powerful interpretation for Decca at Kingsway Hall, London. Brittens Blake cycle returns in places to the dark intensity of his much earlier Blake setting, The Sick Rose (Elegy) from the Serenade for tenor, horn and strings of 1943. Both the fully chromatic melody and striking image of cankerous corruption in the earlier song look directly ahead to the Songs and Proverbswhich are based on texts drawn from Blakes Songs of Experience (1794), in which The Sick Rose is also to be found. With the addition of one poem from the Songs of Innocence (1789) and several epigrams from the undated Proverbs of Hell, Britten created a continuous structure in which the Proverbs are set to recurrent but constantly reworked ritornello material, a structural plan familiar from other Britten works of the late 1950s and early 1960s (principally the orchestral song-cycle Nocturne, the opera A Midsummer Nights Dream and the Cantata Misericordium). These stark Proverbs are clearly distinguished from the songs they punctuate by their disconcerting lack of metrical synchronization between voice and pianoa feature retained from the Church Parable Curlew River, composed in the previous yearand they also make limited use of twelve-note techniques. As so often in Brittens later music, the tension between luminous diatonicism and elusive chromaticism is exploited throughout the cycle as a potent symbol for the conflict between innocence and experience at the heart of Blakes poetry. The settings of London and Every Night and every Morn that frame the cycle are closely related in their ambiguous and subtly disturbing chromaticism, while greater tonal simplicity is reserved for natural scenes: the bright glow of The Tyger and the lament for The Fly. Moments of tremendous rhetorical power are strategically located in A Poison Tree and Ah, Sun-flower. A Poison Tree features a highly original use of simple major and minor triads within a context of chromatic saturation. The young Britten had previously set this same Blake text to music on 2 March 1935; the earlier song remained unperformed until 1986, and is also included in the present recording. As in the opera The Turn of the Screw (1954), the intense chromaticism of the mature treatment of this gripping text serves as a graphic symbol of cankerous evil, and forms the utterly chilling core of the cycle. The last of Brittens many published sets of folksong arrangements was prepared in the summer of 1976, shortly before his death, and featured harp rather than piano accompaniment since the composer had for some time been too ill to accompany Pears in public. The harpist Osian Ellis had accordingly become one of Pearss regular accompanists, and the 1976 folksongs were designed to serve (as had Brittens earlier folksong settings with piano) as popular encore items for the duo. Shes like the swallow and Bird Scarers Song were first performed in this capacity at the Aldeburgh Festival on 17 June 1976, and Lemady was first performed at the University of Chicago on 10 November 1977. David of the White Rock (Dafydd y Garreg Wen) was a tribute to Elliss Welsh ancestry. The Eight Folksong Arrangements of which these songs formed part were published posthumously in two distinct editions in 1980, the original with harp accompaniment and an alternative version with piano accompaniment prepared by the composers music assistant Colin Matthews. The other songs on the present disc also received exposure and publication only after the composers death in December 1976. Several date from the early 1940s when Britten and Pears were beginning to make their names in the USA as a recital duo: these include the setting of Greensleeves and The Crocodile, the latter performed on 14 December 1941 at a concert given under the Auspices of the American Womens Hospitals Reserve Corps at Southold High School in upstate New York, as part of a programme that also included Charles Dibdins Tom Bowling (1789)a song of which Britten later prepared his own realization, launched at the Aldeburgh Festival in 1959 and recorded by Pears in the same year. I wonder as I wander was frequently performed alongside Brittens folksong arrangements in his recitals with Pears following their return to the UK in 1942, but they never recorded or published it since they subsequently discovered that the words and melody were not in the public domain: the song had been published by John Jacob Niles in 1934, and in direct consequence Brittens version did not receive its first recording until 1995, thanks to a belated special arrangement between Niless publishers and the Britten Estate. The triptych Evening, Morning and Night (first published in 1988) originally formed part of the incidental music Britten composed in 1945 for the Masque and Anti-Masque of This Way to the Tomb, a play by Ronald Duncan, who in the following year went on to provide the libretto for Brittens opera The Rape of Lucretia. Two other songs date from the 1950s, although the date of the second remains uncertain. In 1952, Britten prepared a comic duet arrangement of the Appalachian folksong The Deaf Womans Courtship for Kathleen Ferrier to sing as part of a national tour with Pears and Britten conceived with the aim of raising funds for the English Opera Group. According to Brittens memoir of Ferrier, she sang her part in a feeble, cracked voice, the perfect reply to Peters magisterial roar. A masterpiece of humour, which had the audience rocking, but never broke the style of the rest of the concert. After Ferriers untimely death, the contralto part was taken over by Norma Procter, though the arrangement was to remain unpublished until 2001. Brittens setting of Goethes Um Mitternacht (published in 1994) was probably composed in 1959, shortly after the composers strong interest in German poetry had borne fruit in his tenor song-cycle Sechs Hölderlin-Fragmente. At this time, Pears was enjoying an enviable reputation as one of the leading exponents of Lieder in the world, repeatedly earning ecstatic reviews in the German press that inspired the BBC to capitalize on this success by carefully promoting his and Brittens work in Germany.

Morris Pejoe
Morris Pejoe
A name that shows up on trivia tests among blues scholars, Morris Pejoe was a performer with heavy traces of both the country and the city, as well as a bit of outer space. The quality of many of his recordings proves the old adage that it is sometimes not the most famous performers who produce the greatest music in a genre. While the Chicago blues style normally more than holds it own in terms of interesting influences, Pejoe was one of the few performers in Chicago who brought in a strong Louisiana cajun and zydeco influence decades before this became a typical part of a touring, house-rocking band's repertoire. This was because he was actually from Louisiana, where he was born Morris Pejas, beginning his music career on the violin. In the late '40s he moved to Beaumont, TX, where he switched to guitar. Fellow Louisiana pianist Henry Gray remained his musical sidekick throughout these years, and in the early '50s the two relocated to Chicago together, rightfully seeing the big city as a much better opportunity for regular blues employment. Gray was one of two important blues pianists who mentored under Pejoe -- the other was Otis Spann, who worked in the Louisiana man's band in the early '50s prior to beginning the pianist's seemingly endless tenure with the great Muddy Waters. Pejoe's recording career began within a year of hitting the Windy City. During 1952 and 1953, he cut sides for Checker, accompanied by Gray, among others. The following year he recorded for United, this time really emphasizing a New Orleans rhythm & blues sound in a band again with Gray plus the unpleasant Stanley Grim on alto sax, an unknown tenor man, and the superb rhythm section of Milton Rector on electric bass and Earl Phillips on drums. The Pejoe discography continued on practically every independent label that sprang up in Chicago, including Vee-Jay, Abco, Atomic H, and Kaytown. Reissues of much of this material, either as parts of compilations or the complete Delmark retrospective entitled Wrapped Up in My Baby, have been received with enthusiasm almost as raucous as the music itself. One of the most popular numbers, particularly in terms of radio airplay, is "Let's Get High," and the status has not been won simply by having a provocative title. "Cranked-up, distorted classic "Let's Get High" by Morris Pejoe is worth the price alone," was an appraisal from one blues critic when the song appeared on an anthology. The Delmark project digs into the famed basement recordings of producer Al Smith, and show Pejoe's style off to great advantage, featuring plenty of both the unmistakable Louisiana beats as well as plenty of evidence that Pejoe was also paying attention to various Texas guitar blasters before he continued his migration north. During the '60s he often performed with his wife, the fine blues singer Mary Lane. The couple met in the late '50s in Waukegan, IL, where Pejoe's group frequently held forth. One of the couple's daughters, Lynne Lane, became a blues singer, as did Pejoe's son Morris Pejoe, Jr.. Papa Pejoe continued featuring horns in his units during this era, to the point where the group was even thought of as something of a big band. ~ Eugene Chadbourne, Rovi

UPS to hike prices next year
The increases show that the shipping company is confident in its business and its per-package revenue growth.
The higher rates incorporate a reduction in fuel surcharges, which will fall by one percentage point for ground packages and two percentage points for domestic and international air mail. Freight charges are also set to rise, with next-day air freight and two-day air freight facing an increase of 5.9%. Three-day freight charges will remain unchanged.
UPS shares have fallen more than 2% this year and were trading Wednesday at $71.32.
Given that the rate hikes mirror its 2011 price increases, UPS appears confident about continuing to grow per-package revenue in the U.S. and internationally. Its price hike outpaces the 3.9% increase announced by competitor Fedex (FDX).
See full Trefis analysis for UPS here
Revenue growth steady
The two key delivery services offered by UPS are Domestic Ground Packages and International Export Packages. Ground shipments account for 36% of the company's stock price and have seen rising revenue in recent years as UPS passed on ever-higher fuel costs. As long as demand holds steady with the higher rates, we forecast that Domestic Ground Package revenue will grow from $7.88 per item this year to $9.88 by 2018.
Meanwhile, International Export Packages account for 30% of the stock price and have a broadly similar outlook, with average revenue of $38.60 expected to hit $51.80 by 2018. In contrast to domestic packages, however, demand for overseas packages was severely affected by the 2008 global recession. Per-package revenue fell sharply from $40.50 in 2008 to $35.60 in 2009.
Global slowdown may have muted effect
Alongside its projected revenue growth, we expect UPS to maintain its margins of 20% for domestic packages and 25% for international exports. While it remains possible that a slowdown in the global economy could hit international revenue, two factors will work in the company's favor should such an eventuality arise.
First, for the 2012 rates, UPS has nominally cut its fuel surcharge despite oil prices remaining elevated. This should allow the company to argue against future surcharge reductions -- which consumers might otherwise expect during a downturn -- thereby temporarily shielding international revenue. Second, UPS has a relatively low exposure to international cargo and freight operations, which would be the biggest victim of a major global slowdown.

Governor Sean Parnell rolled out his budget plan for the next fiscal year today. The budget proposal focuses on resource and energy development, transportation and infrastructure, public safety, military support and education.
In the coming fiscal year, the governor says he was able to cut state spending by nearly 1.1 billion and also held the state operating budget to less than one percent growth, but as the governor prepared next year's budget proposal he had to face the facts.
Governor Sean Parnell said, "My main priority was to spend less given that we had less revenue."
The facts, according to Governor Parnell, are that oil production and oil prices are down.
"The production decline and rising cost of producing our oil profoundly impacts Alaska's oil revenues," said Gov. Sean Parnell.
This is why the governor is trying to create a fair and balanced approach to oil tax reform.
"The bottom line is we've got to increase production," said Parnell. "So you'll see me introduce a bill designed to do that. Designed to simplify our tax system, but to also make us more competitive as a state and increase production."
Oil tax reform is something that democratic Senator Hollis French agrees with in theory, but fears that the governor's oil tax reform will create a problem for the budget.
"The question going forward for this year is how big of a hole will the governor's oil tax bill create in the budget," said French. "We're basically running along right now with enough money coming in from our oil taxes to pay for state government."
As for the governor rolling out his new budget proposal today claiming to have cut more than a billion dollars in state spending, most of which comes from the capitol budget.
"Capital spending in Alaska always goes up and down with the price of oil," said French. "So by reducing capital spending, that's not really a cut it's just less spending for new roads, news schools, new infrastructure."
In general, Senator French and Governor Parnell both call this budget proposal status quo, proposing a budget that totals 12-point-eight billion dollars. The Governor's budget leaves more than $500 million in surplus revenue if the revenue of oil production and price holds, based on the current estimates.

Old Testament Miniatures with Latin, Persian, and Judeo-Persian inscriptions France, Paris, 1240sScholars believe that the Picture Bible was commissioned by Louis IX of France, the Capetian monarch who built the Sainte-Chapelle in Paris to house the crown of thorns before leaving for the first of his two crusades in 1248. The Bible later passed to the cardinal of Cracow, who then offered it as a diplomatic gift to the great Persian Muslim shah 'Abbas in the early seventeenth century. The manuscript eventually fell into the hands of Jewish owners, probably during the eighteenth century. These various owners left Latin, Persian, and Judeo-Persian inscriptions around the images. With these inscriptions, the keepers of the manuscript used their languages to assert their ownership of the book, appropriating its narrative contents and assimilating it into their own cultures. The Latin captions are the earliest. They can be labeled as "early fourteenth-century," and were possibly made by a scribe trained in Bologna. The Persian captions come next. They were added in 1608 or shortly after, when the manuscript was presented to Shah Abbas in Isfahan. The Judeo-Persians are last, and according to the translator, they were probably made in 1722 or shortly after, as that year Isfahan was sacked by the Afghans. She supposes that at that time the book was looted by an Afghan soldier and was possibly exchanged with an Iranian Jew. The Picture Bible is illustrated with saturated colors and exquisite detail. In order to make its lessons relevant to readers, the creators of this Bible set Old Testament stories in contemporaneous environments. For example, depictions of architecture evoke the castles and houses of thirteenth-century French towns and battle scenes are illustrated with thirteenth-century armor, weapons, and battle insignia.
MS M.638 (fol. 16r)Hospitality After seeing to the Levite's donkeys, the old man and his daughter prepare a feast for their guests at a table set with golden dishes. In the foreground, a servant cuts bread. (Judges 19:21) Reprehensible Demands While the Levite and his wife are at table, their host is called away to his door. Men of Gibeah demand that the old man surrender the Levite so that they might rape and murder him. Rather than suffer this fate, the Levite turns over his wife so that they might use her in his stead. (Judges 19:22–24) Gibeah's Crime The rapists deal wickedly with the Levite's wife. (Judges 19:25) Death of the Levite's Wife With her remaining strength, the Levite's wife crawls to the door of the house where her husband is lodged.

Folio 16r (Latin)Upper left: How that old man prepared a meal for his guests. (Judges 19:21)Upper right: How, as they were sitting at the table, a most evil clan, devoid of any fear of God, entered the old man's house, demanding him to bring forth his guest to them, that they might abuse him as they wished. Yet the old man, choosing a lesser evil, was offering them either his maiden daughter or his guest's wife, lest they commit a sin against nature. When they had spoke against it, the guest himself delivered his wife to them lest they exercise their lust on his body. (Judges 19: 22–25) Lower left: How the vile men took the wife of a foreigner and, moreover, a guest, amused themselves with her, and abused her all night long. (Judges 19:25)Lower right: How in the morning the woman returned to the house where her husband was and fell down dead before the door of the house. Upon opening the door the man beheld her and was arousing her, thinking that she was taking her rest. Then, at length, he perceived that she was dead. (Judges 19:26–28)Translation by Eran Lupu

Loved the oven, but had to return it. Was told I needed 30" from bottom of cabinet to stove burners. What you actually need is 30" from bottom of microwave to stove burners.

Just built a new house, and had this microwave installed when we moved in on Sept. 9, 2013. Before the month was over, the keypad began malfunctioning, and the service calls began. 4 visits/attempts later, the technician has called it dead, and a replacement is in the works. He mentioned they're starting see issues with this model, so I hope we have the option to get a different model. It's probably best to avoid this model, in light of this information.

Cottage CraftersNeighborhoods:
Relaxed and pleasant – LOVE this place, have visited for years. Not just "the same old thing"! I worked selling antiques and absolutely loved shopping here! Cream of the crop merchandise. This is NOT a 5 minute clone mall store! A place to enjoy and discover. New ideas and thinking in the crafts, pleasant memories in the antiques. The only folks I've ever seen have a bad experience here were the ones with rotten attitudes to start with! Always wonderful items for collectors and items for those of us who wish that we had more time to craft! They even carry small snack items (like cookies!) to help with the shopping munchies! When you plan to visit, schedule more than an hour, and plan on poking and finding your treasure! Could find anything, from small nicknacks to furniture (if I remember right, they had player pianos, too...) And since the stands are all stocked by different folks, the inventory changes every day! Was a life saver when I was pregnant, kept me from being stuck in the house!
Cottage Crafters – I love to buy and make crafts, but lately it seems like they barely exist anymore! I travel over an hour from New Jersey to shop here because I can find lots of cute and homemade items. The antique side is fun too even for my children who really don't have an actual interest in antiques. it's definitely something to be checked out if you've never been there!
Cottage Crafters – Once you understand the set up its quite easy. You enter the building, crafts are on the left, antiques are on the right the sides are separated by the General Store . Bid board is in the back. It does take a little bit to get use to, but if you stay on the tiled part you will be able to navigate around the store. Its a big store so it takes some time to see everything.
Every booth(store) is rented by a different vendor. The store does not take inventory of the vendors items, simply because their is no way to keep track of hundreds of items. The best bet is to ask someone on the floor(usually always wearing an apron) if you can not find one ask for help at the front desk they will get a vendor to assist you. It may be hard to locate a specific item, since its always changing, but the vendors are the "eyes" of the floor and usually can help or help look for an item.
Great Unique Gifts – If you are looking for UNIQUE and interesting HARD TO FIND GIFTS, you have come to the right place! The prices are reasonable. It is a little time consuming to view all the booths & what they have to offer because of the way they are arranged. But even with that in mind, you will find a treasure trove of goodies. I stumbled onto a booth that makes the most precious & unique gifts for baby showers. They are called "The FairyGiftmothers" and they make these "Dolls" out of diapers,outfits and other gift items inside. I bought one to give to my niece! There is also a booth with the cutest pet items. If you have a free afternoon I suggest you check this place out.
Nice prices, lots of parking space – I have found many nice treasures at this store. Alot of good condition vintage pieces. I found things to add to my own collections and could not believe the price compared to most. They even have great items at there silent auctions, better stuff. I have been going to this store for many many years and enjoy the atmosphere. I love to shop where nobody has to bother you or keep looking over your shoulder. Very relaxed atmosphere and are helpful when you are ready. I have yet to run into the rude lady that was mentioned in another post, maybe she quit or moved to the country. I have never encountered this one.
very unoriginazied, – visited this business very confusing as the setup,like a maze of shops isles are small.customer service is very poor,couldnot direct me to a right shop i was interested in.recomend not shopping there at all.
Great customer service – It's easy to lose track of time when you're in this store! After running about the Lehigh Valley's used furniture stores looking for a certain size table, I found it here ... and at a great price! The personal attention given to each of the clients (including me), the variety of items - both antiques and crafts, the ability to have them boxed for gift-giving (if small enough), fair pricing, weekly store hours, and the option to take home a small bit of fudge -- will make me a repeat customer. Remember to ask for a possible discount on the item when at checkout - you may recieve an additional 10% off! If your item is large, assistance is provided to help you load it into your vehicle. And the fudge ... again, a nice variety is available for purchase -- it's all good, trust me! The front desk has a direct line to each of the sellers and is happy to answer any questions that you may have. If you're looking for old-fashioned items: country to Victorian, and old-fashioned customer service, this is the place to go.
Cool unique items – Really cool and unique items. Lots of them. However the staff was very rude to my self and daughter. They actually kicked us out. We were there browsing, a staff member announced there were 4 more minutes and the store would be closing, please make your final selection and come up front. Well my daughter and I were finishing looking at the section we were in when an older woman came walking over not even 1 minute after the announcement and yelled to us that they are closing. I responed by saying I had heard the announcement. She then very rudly came closer to us saying well...... And then asked "if there were any more of us?" I left there empty handed and feeling very insulted. There was no need for the store employee to act like that! At her age she should have know better!!Will definatley think twice about revisiting that store.

Walmart is also $15 http://www.walmart.com/ip/Mass-Ef...0/15657198
I highly recommend jumping on this EVEN IF you haven't started the series. Buy 1 and 2 used, and this new at this price because ME 3 has an activation code for multiplayer which makes buying new more worth it. 1 and 2 don't.
I did the same exact thing (used,used,new) last summer and played the whole series in a couple months. The first one is mind-blowingly good, gets you excited about the future, has cool environments, dialogue where you make hard choices (that you end up caring more about than the actual gameplay, that's a first), interesting alien races, intergalactic politics, etc.... 2 improves on all of that and provides more awesomeness. 3 is a great game, until, some people say, the end, but I disagree. I won't spoil anything for you, but the ending actually isn't disastrous and game breaking. It can be a little confusing, but apparently it was worse before an update was delivered last year (thankfully before I played). Trust me, you'll love it and the series is a good value at this point. |
I'd call it necessary. Still a very good game and worth $15. |
I am completely addicted to the Multiplayer. Which I can honestly say I never thought would happen. I don't play FPS online since Unreal Tournament 2. I still play ME3 constantly. The unlocks are unique characters and weapons gotta catch em all.
Oh and the Single Player in ME3 is great, ME2 single player was amazing though. |

Ultimate Eagle prevails in the 2011 Oak Tree Derby. (Photo courtesy of Eclipse Sportswire)
The 56th running of the $500,000 Donn Handicap (G1) brings together a field of 10 with nearly all of them proven in graded stakes races competition. Recent Hal's Hope Stakes (G3) winner Csaba is one of the main contenders, entering the race on a four-race winning streak including two wins at Gulfstream Park. Hal's Hope runner-up Pool Play is another expected to run very well, losing just by a neck in his first start since running eighth in the Breeders' Cup Classic (G1) but having won the Hawthorne Gold Cup Handicap (G2) before that. Ultimate Eagle is the horse each Donn contender will likely have to run down in the stretch with three, front-running graded stakes victories in his career, including the similar Strub Stakes (G2) at this time last year and at the distance of the Donn. Two-time Jockey Club Gold Cup Stakes (G1) winner Flat Out finished third in the Breeders' Cup Classic in his most recent race and deserves respect. Two more that warrant a long look at the outcome were last seen separated by a head when finishing second and third, respectively, in the Clark Handicap (G1) – Take Charge Indy and Bourbon Courage, the former winner of the 2012 Florida Derby (G1) at Gulfstream and the latter having won the Super Derby (G2) last summer. Ducduc won the Fred Hooper Handicap (G3) one before last and could rebound to top form, while Citrus Kid has won two of his last three races and was once competitive at this level, such as when second in the Jamaica Handicap (G1) in fall 2010. Fast Falcon missed by inches when third in the Travers Stakes (G1) last summer and could be up to the task although he has only a maiden win to his credit. Last but not least, Graydar has won two of three career starts but is being tested for class here as this will be his first try in a stakes race.
Ultimate Eagle is one of only three horses in the Donn to have run in 2013, which could give him a physical edge in this competitive field. His last effort came on Jan. 5 when he led from the start and ended up a head shy of victory in the San Pasqual Stakes in California. Improving his Equibase Speed Figure for his third straight race, to 108, Ultimate Eagle once again is approaching the form shown when winning the Strub Stakes at this time last year and off a layoff similar to the one he's coming back from in this race. Ultimate Eagle is a horse who usually will not allow another horse to be in front of him in the early stages of a race. With a high cruising speed that will discourage other "early" pace types from engaging him from the start, Ultimate Eagle might not be caught in this year's Donn.
Pool Play was returning from a little more than two months off on Jan. 13 when coming up a neck shy of victory to Csaba in the Hal's Hope Stakes. Tying a career-best 114 Equibase Speed Figure with that effort, the same figure earned when winning the Stephen Foster Handicap in spring 2011 (also at the distance of the Donn), Pool Play is likely to be rallying from far back in the early stages. If Ultimate Eagle cannot lead from start to finish, Pool Play is very likely to be the one to go by him late for the win, particularly since Pool Play should improve in his second start off that short freshening.
Csaba had a decent career going into the Tropical Park Derby last October, winning four of 13 races, but since that time he's become a formidable foe. Winning four straight stakes races starting with that race, Csaba has earned 116 and 114 Equibase Speed Figures, respectively, in his last two victories, both at Gulfstream Park. Having also won twice in his career at the distance of the Donn and with jockey Luis Saez in the saddle for the fifth straight time, Csaba would be no surprise if keeping his win skein intact with another big effort.

Bourbon Courage was last seen rallying to miss second by a neck in the Clark Handicap, won by the now-retired superstar Shackleford. Earning a career-best 118 Equibase Speed Figure with that effort, Bourbon Courage previously was proven at the distance and in top company when victorious in the Super Derby last September. As a newly turned 4-year-old, Bourbon Courage figures to start out strongly on a campaign that could lead to a start this coming fall in the Breeders' Cup Classic.
The rest of the field (with their best representative Equibase Speed Figure): Citrus Kid (110), Ducduc (113), Fast Falcon (113), Flat Out (123), Graydar (110) and Take Charge Indy (118).

Book Description:Callister and Rethwisch's Fundamentals of Materials Science and Engineering third edition continues to take the integrated approach to the organization of topics. That is, one specific structure, characteristic, or property type at a time is discussed for all three basic material types—viz. metals, ceramics, and polymeric materials. This order of presentation allows for the early introduction of non-metals and supports the engineer's role in choosing materials based upon their characteristics.

What, no one has found any dumb car ad's while they've been searching Kijiji or eBay that they think shouldn't have been posted???
06-16-2011, 11:50 PM #3I haven't been shopping cars or trucks online John, but I'd like to bitch about the ones that the area dealerships in south western OR put on tv. Those stupid morons talk/YELL so damn fast, that you can't understand a freakin work they say. They try & squeeze a one minute commercial into a 30 second spot & it's pointless. They're not known as the guys with the good quality cars, they're known as the morons with the crappy TV commercials.
