About All Terrain All Terrain sells natural products to help people live more active, healthier lives. Safe and highly effective, All Terrain's products disprove the myth that if it's natural, it can't work as well as chemical-based products. The products are developed by and for outdoor enthusiasts for use whether trekking in the backcountry or relaxing with family in your backyard. In addition to wanting people to live healthier lives, the company is based on caring and a desire to protect the environment.
Mission and History All Terrain's mission is to help people live more active, healthier lives. The company originated when a climber was hiking in Costa Rica and a bottle of DEET-based insect repellent he was carrying leaked. It ate through his backpack and melted the keys on a calculator he was carrying to figure out the exchange rate. After that experience, he came home, researched and developed the natural, yet effective, Herbal Armor™ Insect Repellent. From this humble beginning, All Terrain moved to Sunapee, New Hampshire and now offers more than 50 natural, effective products to help people live more actively.
Values All Terrain believes in:
Performance Naturally All Terrain is trying to debunk the myth that if a product is natural it doesn't work as well as a chemical-based product. All Terrain's products have won numerous awards for their natural formulas, safety and efficacy (see The Buzz). Customers can trust that whether they are in the backcountry, backwoods or backyard, All Terrain's products will work. The products are developed by and for outdoor enthusiasts who expect high performance from themselves and from the products they use. They are laboratory-tested and/or field-tested to meet high standards. The ingredients are natural and sold in environmentally-friendly packaging that is recycled, recyclable or biodegradable.
Caring About Kids All Terrain cares deeply about the health of people, particularly children's health. Over 30% of kids today are overweight or clinically obese. Childhood diabetes, depression and ADHD are up dramatically. Kids are less active with recess down 40% in schools and "free play area" down almost 89%. Most alarming is that according to the Kaiser Family Foundation, children are spending an average of 7.5 hours a day behind some kind of screen. All Terrain supports both local and national organizations, supplying samples and resources to kids' recreation departments, runs, triathlons, bike races, fishing derbies, etc.
Apply liberally and evenly 15 minutes before sun exposure. Reapply after 80 minutes of swimming or sweating, immediately after towel drying and at least every 2 hours.
Children under the age of 6 months: Ask a doctor.
Sun Protection Measures: Spending time in the sun increases your risk of skin cancer and early skin aging. To decrease this risk, regularly use a sunscreen with Broad Spectrum SPF value of 15 or higher and other sun protection measures including:
Active Ingredient: Non-Nano, Un-coated Zinc Oxide Zinc Oxide: 16.0%
Inactive Ingredients: Aloe Vera (Aloe Barbadensis) Gel, Bladderwrack (Fucus Vesiculosus) Extract, Caprylic/ capric triglycerides, Caprylyl Glycol, Cetearyl Alcohol, Cucumber (Cucumis Sativus) Extract, d-alpha Tocopherol (Vitamin E), Dehydroxanthan Gum, Dimethicone, Glyceryl Stearate, Grapefruit (Citrus Grandis) Seed Extract, Jojoba Oil, Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate (Vitamin C), Methylcellulose, Purified Water, Sea Kelp (Macrocystis Pyrifera) Extract, Sunflower (Helianthus Annuus) Oil.

Review of the 2006 Ford Fusion
The introduction of the 2006 Ford Fusion marks the first time in nearly two decades that Ford has a high-quality midsize sedan that can go toe-to-toe with the imports while maintaining a distinctly American style.

Cutting-edge looks, upscale interior, tight construction, confident handling, competitive price.

Full 2006 Ford Fusion Review
What's New for 2006
The Fusion is an all-new midsize family sedan from Ford designed to take on segment leaders. Both four- and six-cylinder engines are available, as is a six-speed automatic transmission.
A few years ago Ford's head of vehicle design, J Mays, was asked why the American automakers had "lost" the family sedan market. His response: "We didn't lose it, we walked away from it." Those comments were made at the introduction of a sleek and stylish sedan concept car, the 427, in 2003. The car represented Ford's interest in reestablishing itself in the family four-door segment, and many of its design elements, including the large headlights and bold, three-bar grille, are prominent features on the all-new Ford Fusion.
The Fusion gives notice, to customers and competitors alike, that Ford is once again ready to compete for midsize family sedan buyers. The last time Ford had a serious contender in this category it went by the name Taurus. That model even held the title "best-selling car in America" for a few years before being relegated to rental car status as superior offerings from Honda, Nissan and Toyota stole the sales spotlight.
But the 2006 Ford Fusion -- riding on a lengthened, widened version of the highly acclaimed Mazda 6 platform -- has plenty going for it in this competitive market. Like the nimble 6, it rides on a four-wheel independent suspension and features a rack and pinion steering system. But unlike the 6, the Fusion provides passengers with adequate interior space by increasing both the length and width of the vehicle. Supplementing the cabin's space are upscale treatments like satin-finished bezels around the gauges and soft-touch material on the dash and door panels. Upscale models include leather seats with contrasting stitching, and all Fusions come standard with steering wheel-mounted buttons for cruise control, power windows, power locks and keyless entry.
Ford Fusion power comes from either a 2.3-liter, 160-horsepower four-cylinder or a 3.0-liter, 221-hp V6. The smaller engine is hooked to a standard five-speed manual with a five-speed automatic optional, but the V6 can only be had with a six-speed automatic transmission. The V6 does include dual exhaust pipes, and both engines feature four-valve-per-cylinder heads and 150,000-mile tune up intervals.
To address the safety concerns of family sedan buyers, Ford strengthened the car's platform in various areas. The B-pillars, between the front and rear doors, are reinforced above the car's beltline to direct side-impact energy down and away from passengers. The roof structure is similarly reinforced to pass proposed rollover crush standards that won't take effect until 2009, and an optional side airbag package offers seat-deployed torso airbags for front passengers and side curtain airbags that protect both front and rear occupants. It may be a bit overdue, but it would appear that the 2006 Ford Fusion was worth the wait.
Body Styles, Trim Levels, and Options
The midsize 2006 Ford Fusion sedan comes in three trim levels: S, SE and SEL. The base S rides on 16-inch wheels and includes air conditioning, an MP3-compatible CD stereo with four speakers, a split-folding rear seat, cruise control, full power accessories and keyless entry. The SE adds a six-way power driver seat, audio controls on the steering wheel, carbon trim on the center console and dash, and two more speakers for the audio system. Options on the SE include alloy wheels, leather seats, a moonroof, an upgraded eight-speaker stereo and an in-dash CD changer. Top-of-the-line SEL models come with 17-inch alloy wheels, a six-disc CD changer, foglamps, automatic climate control, and wood or "piano black" interior trim. In addition to the SE options, the SEL is eligible for heated seats and a premium package with automatic headlights, heated outside mirrors and an auto-dimming rearview mirror.
Powertrains and Performance
The Fusion's base 2.3-liter, four-cylinder engine makes 160 horsepower and meets PZEV certification in California. It's connected to a standard five-speed manual transmission, and a five-speed automatic is optional. A 221-hp, 3.0-liter V6 is available on SE and SEL Fusions. This engine comes with one transmission, a six-speed automatic. This transmission shifts well enough, but we wish it had a true manual-shift mode instead of just two forward-gear gates ("D" and "L"), neither of which has much effect on the tranny's behavior.
Four-wheel disc brakes are standard equipment on all Fusion models. Options on all Fusions include ABS with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution and an airbag package with front-seat side airbag and full-length head curtains. Traction control is optional on V6 models, but stability control is not available at all. In NHTSA crash tests, the 2006 Ford Fusion scored four stars (out of five) in frontal impact and four (five with the side airbag option) for side impact. In IIHS frontal offset testing, the Fusion rated "Acceptable" (the second highest rating); in side impact testing (without side airbags) it yielded a "Poor" rating.
Interior Design and Special Features
The Fusion's upscale interior offers an effective blend of premium materials and functional design elements. All models feature gauges with satin-finished bezels, soft-touch dash and door material, and a storage bin in the center of the dash. Upscale Fusions feature leather seating surfaces with contrasting stitching, an analog clock, and steering wheel-mounted audio controls. All audio systems are MP3-capable, and the split-folding rear seat, along with a 15.8-cubic-foot trunk, adds to the Fusion's utility. Most buyers will find the Ford Fusion suitably roomy with ample head-, shoulder and legroom for adults to ride comfortably in the front or back
Driving Impressions
With its responsive steering and a refined ride, the 2006 Ford Fusion is one of the more entertaining vehicles in the family sedan segment. Wind and road noise is effectively quelled at highway speeds, and the six-speed transmission offers crisp upshifts and downshifts. More horsepower, and an automatic transmission with manual access to gears, would lend support to the Fusion's sporty aspirations, but it's still a fun car to drive by family sedan standards.

83% of the CEO
Paul Hermelin
I worked at Capgemini full-time for less than a year
Pros – Benefits, Compensation & policies are really good when compared to competition. Some of the benefits like vacation & sick leaves are really good.
Cons – Management needs to be little employee centric. They always try to please the customer( which is good by the way ) but in doing this, employee's interests shouldn't be sidelined.
Advice to Senior Management – Keep up the good job but sometime do take care of employee's need & problems too
I have been working at Capgemini
Pros – Great organisations. Lot of employee benefit schemes.
Cons – Big organisation with all different kind of projects so you might want to take care of where you are headed in terms of the project you get.
I have been working at Capgemini full-time for more than 3 years
Pros – Capgemini is a good company with great benefits. Capgemini has a good training program as well as an opportunity to travel and meet people from different cultures and backgrounds.
Cons – The compensation is good, but not great.
Advice to Senior Management – Capgemini hires most recent college graduates and individuals from out of state/country. Charlotte has lots of qualified candidates who should be considered.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend
I have been working at Capgemini full-time for more than 10 years
Pros – Great company to work for I have worked here for 14 years. Excellent career growth available within the company. Diverse company crossing many development centers across many cultures.
Cons – Can be somewhat hard to work across company divisions. Common processes across divisions does not exist. tends to operate as separate companies across divisions.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company
I worked at Capgemini
Pros – Capgemini has an awesome work enviornment
Cons – Less salary offered for freshers
Advice to Senior Management – provide more compensation for freshers
I worked at Capgemini
Pros – It was a great company
Cons – Salary was a bit less. as compared to other companies
I have been working at Capgemini full-time for more than 8 years
Pros – Open welcoming and smart colleagues. Great culture. Good bosses. Ample opportunities to grow if you do good work. Very flexible - can work out any arrangement (for school, for change of field, for promotion, raise, etc)
Cons – Can be a bit of "we are not as good as Accenture" feeling
Advice to Senior Management – Raise appreciation for Capgemini for what it is, not in comparison with other consultancies.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company
I have been working at Capgemini full-time
Pros – I've had some amazing managers who have taken me under their wings to mentor and coach me. I've had my certifications paid for, I'm being compensated pretty well, and have been able to maintain a healthy work-life balance.
Cons – I've also had a nightmare-situation of a project that has really changed my view of this company. There was no work-life balance, no organization within the project, and no management. Despite our attempts to report this to senior executives several times, none of these issues were ever addressed. I joined this company because they told us they cared about how they treat their people, but the amount of politics I've experienced shows me otherwise. Most companies have feedback bottom-up and top-down so that each person is rated during round-table discussions. However, Capgemini only does top-down ratings (something I find extremely unfair).
Again, this really varies by project. I've been on amazing projects with extremely competent managers. I've also known many people who have never experienced bad projects. So please take this with a grain of salt.
Advice to Senior Management – Turnover is extremely high within the company because people feel like they don't have a say. Many people I know left because they were hired into this company under a specific service line they didn't choose, and found it impossible to switch service lines. In addition, to my point about bottom-up ratings, I feel that this is extremely important as many times, lower-level consultants don't feel as if they're being treated fairly by upper management.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
I have been working at Capgemini full-time for more than 5 years
Pros – Large company with Industry and technical knowledge.
Cons – They do not have their act together. Leadership is lost and unaware of the consequences of their ever changing decisions. The motto "People Matter Results Count" is a joke... the last thing in the company mind is "people". Be ready to be treated as a commodity in and environment where everyone is on his/her own, and performance has little to do with your career development. Of course, they will say we are a company of "entrepreneurs"… nice way to get away with bad corporate behaviour and inefficiency. Leadership needs substantial change.
Advice to Senior Management – Get your act together, some of you might need to leave, stop playing with your inner-circle where all is forgiven, and damaging the people doing the real work for many long hours, with slime to none existing incentives
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company
I worked at Capgemini full-time for more than a year
Pros – Experience working with government agencies.
Cons – Long hours. Staffing levels were not at what they should be for the projects and management expectations. Salaried employees are expected to work long hours.
Management gave little direction and would often change focus.
Despite hard work, there was little recognition. Often work performed was relabled by management, so there was rarely recognition of the reports/charts/data analysis done by those under management.
Almost all of the work completed was for a contract with the state government. The contract was for 3+ years. Management did not factor in financial changes, which meant working 3+ years with no raises.
Advice to Senior Management – Decide where you are going and stay with a defined direction. Hold partners accountable. Reward people who do well, even if it is non-monetary rewards. Consider establishing a comp time reward for those who work overtime with no extra pay. Build into contracts pay raises-employees do not expect to work three years without at least a cost of living raise.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

Former cEO of worldwide financial resources pleads guilty to bankruptcy fraud
September 19, 2011 |
TRENTON, N.J. – The former CEO of Worldwide Financial Resources, a New Jersey-based mortgage origination firm, pleaded guilty today to bankruptcy fraud in connection with his January 2010 personal bankruptcy petition, U.S. Attorney Paul J. Fishman announced.

Findel claimed in the petition he had $5,500 in cash on hand, no household goods, no jewelry, no automobiles, and no other personal property of any kind not already listed in the petition. However, according to documents and statements of witnesses, Findel actually had approximately $41,851 in cash on hand, eight watches with an estimated value of approximately $55,350, 21 boxes of fine china and silver with an estimated value of $13,965, approximately 511 bottles of wine with an estimated value of $44,540, 11 paintings with an estimated value of $7,750, and 4 pieces of jewelry with an estimated value of $6,240, at or around the time he filed the petition.

The count of bankruptcy fraud to which Findel pleaded guilty carries a maximum potential penalty of five years in prison and a fine of $250,000. Sentencing was scheduled for Nov. 14, 2011, before Judge Sheridan.

If anyone thinks that with a different QB, Coach, Coordinator, Owner, City, Stadium, Fans, etc the Chiefs would magically have a chance to win more than 9 games this year.....you're absolutely out of your mind.
Matt Cassel reportedly could lose Chiefs starting quarterback job
The Kansas City Chiefs are growing disenchanted with Matt Cassel as their starting quarterback, Yahoo's Jason Cole reported Monday.
From Cole's report:
"Look, there's a big reason why they went after Peyton Manning as hard as they did this offseason," said a source with knowledge of Chiefs president Scott Pioli's thinking. "What you're seeing from Cassel is pretty much what was expected. He's a really nice backup, not a starter."
Cole's report suggests that if the Chiefs had a better alternative than Brady Quinn or Ricky Stanzi as backup, Cassel might have already been benched.
The Chiefs came into the 2012 season with sky-high expectations and expected to get back a healthy Cassel for a full season after he missed almost half of last year with a hand injury.
But Cassel's start to the season thus far has been lackluster, at best. He has thrown just five touchdowns along with seven interceptions, and his quarterback rating sits at 70.4. The Chiefs, meanwhile, are mired in a 1-3 start and already sit two games behind the San Diego Chargers in the AFC West.
Cassel broke out in 2008 with the New England Patriots, when he replaced the injured Tom Brady for a full season. The Chiefs subsequently traded a second-round pick for Cassel and committed to him as their starter. He justified the hype in 2010, throwing 27 touchdowns to just seven interceptions while leading the Chiefs to the playoffs.
Despite this season's struggles, Chiefs coach Romeo Crennel committed to Cassel as his starter.
"Even after he had those turnovers, he came back and drove the team down the field, so we think he's capable," Crennel said Monday. "We just have to get him to be more consistent."

Cedar Rapids Weather
RoughRiders Rally Late But Fall In OT To Chicago, 6-5By Jeff Johnson, Reporter
CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa — They didn't get a win out of it, but they stole a standings point. It's a start.
Jeff Kubiak scored on a breakaway two minutes into overtime to give the Chicago Steel a wild 6-5 win over the Cedar Rapids RoughRiders last night in a rare Thursday nighter at the Cedar Rapids Ice Arena. The goal saved Chicago from what could have been a devastating loss. The RoughRiders scored three times in the final 5:12 of regulation to tie it. That included a pair of 6-on-5 goals, with goalie Steve Michalek pulled for an extra attacker. Phillip Marinaccio pounced on a rebound and tied it with 37.3 seconds left. He was acquired a week and a half ago in a trade with Chicago. The guy he was dealt for, Landon Smith, scored for the Steel, so you can call that part even. Cedar Rapids (7-8-3, 17 points) has lost four games in a row and eight of 10. They are 0-3 this season in overtime and shootout. The RoughRiders play Saturday night in Dubuque and Sunday in Des Moines. "To get a point was great," said Riders Coach Mark Carlson. "I'm proud of the effort to come back, for sure." Michalek was a ballyhooed addition this week from Harvard University, but ended up losing his first junior game, his first game of any kind since Feb. 18. The Minnesota Wild draft pick really couldn't be blamed for any of the goals he allowed, as he was hung out to dry by his team, a disturbing and repeated pattern, particularly lately. "There's no time to be discouraged about it," Carlson said. "You've got to keep finding ways to get better. Just keep trying to get better. That's all you can do." Smith's short-handed goal gave Chicago a 2-1 lead after a period. Judd Peterson tied it eight minutes into the second period for the Riders, but a turnover and giveaway led to back-to-back Ray Pigozzi goals in a span of 1:34 as the Steel took a 4-2 lead to the final period. Joseph Widmar's goal 6:45 into the third, on a nifty backhand centering pass from the side of the net by Alex Roos, gave Chicago a 5-2 edge, and that looked like that would be it. But defenseman Clark Kuster blasted home a 5-on-3 point shot with 5:12 left, giving Cedar Rapids momentum. Riders Coach Mark Carlson pulled Michalek with a little over two minutes left and a faceoff in the Chicago zone. That eventually led by Dylan Gareau tipping in an Ian Brady point shot to make it 5-4. Marinaccio was Johnny on the spot in the final minute, converting a juicy rebound after a Gerry Mayhew original shot from the slot. In overtime, defenseman Brady rushed with speed into the Chicago zone, but his drop pass to no one was picked up by Kubiak, who had clear sailing down the right side of the ice. He faked Michalek down and backhanded home the winner. "I would say overall our puck management has got to get better," Carlson said.

Those of you that are familiar with this site may know me better as Nonnie. A few days ago my fiancée Brian (KRCguns) was walking around the house snapping pictures whenever he would "feel" something. We did get seven orbs in several pictures but this was the best of them all. We have had many strange occurrences since we moved into the house in April 2002. We like this picture the best due to the mist and orb in front of the china hutch as well as the points of light on the wall to the right of the hutch. We've tried to explain the points of light but can find no source. The next photo taken, about 15 seconds later, showed two points of light further down the wall. Both photos were taken from the same vantage point.

Why am I not surprised that Mr. Big was wrong? Sarah Jessica Parker squashed rumors that the "Sex and the City" movies were all but done.
Last night, the mommy-of-three spoke to New Yok Mag at New York City Ballet's fall gala about the alleged demise of the popular series which debuted on HBO in 1998. The rumors began in mid-September after Chris Noth told reporters:
"It's over. The franchise is dead. The press killed it. Your magazine f**king killed it. New York Magazine. It's like all the critics got together and said, 'This franchise must die.'
"They all had the exact same review. It's like they didn't see the movie."
SJP says, Not so fast!
"I don't know the future; I would say that you never know what will happen with that particular franchise. It's less about the reviewers than it is about the audience, and they've been pretty true, so we tend to listen to them more than anybody else," Parker told Vulture.
Also, it's not Noth who gets final say, but it might be SATC's director, writer, and executive producer, Michael Patrick King: "If Michael Patrick didn't put those words into those characters's mouths, I don't think people would respond for so many years," Parker said. "So we'll see. Who knows."
I have gone on record and said that the second film was not my favorite. The writers strayed from the original formula but it was still a fun ride. Would I have preferred a more cliqued version that would have left Carrie with a baby bump?
Absolutely not.
But I thoroughly loved the first film and was hoping for more of that without the Carrie/Big drama. Please let this stand as an open invitation to the writers of any future films and of course Mr. Michael Patrick King for a bit of fan insight.
After a night of fabulousness (and rumor squashing), SJP returned to her parenting duties and walked little James Wilkie to school on Thursday, October 8th, 2010. That boy has just sprouted overnight and looks exactly like daddy Matthew Broderick.

Street Maintenance Operations
The City of Allen's street maintenance operations works hard to preserve and maintain the community's investment in municipal roads, alleys and sidewalks. There is a total of 12 full-time staff assigned to maintaining over 300 lane miles of roadway in the City of Allen.
Street Maintenance
The streets division actively conducts routine, preventive maintenance on the city's roadways. Preventive maintenance extends the life of the road to keep it looking and riding in like-new condition. The work performed under the preventive maintenance program includes crack sealing and pavement lifting. The purpose is to stop water from entering the roadway, which causes early break up of the road surface. The useful life of roads can be extended if small breaks are fixed before more severe damage occurs. This is the reason why maintenance work is at times done on streets that appear to be in good condition.
Street Assessments
The streets division conducts annual street and alley condition assessments and uses this assessment to formulate the pavement maintenance program. This multi-level rating system rates the roadways for ride quality, drainage, and surface & base conditions.
Crack Sealing
Crack sealing is scheduled when cracks in the roadways expand and become more visible. Filling or sealing pavement cracks to prevent water from entering the base and sub base will extend the pavement life by three to five years. Filling cracks and joints with asphalt materials is a cost effective way to extend the usable life of a road.
Pavement Lifting
Another method of maintaining the roadways, sidewalks and alleys is to repair pavement that has settled.
The City of Allen uses a foam injection to control pavement settlement that occurs under and around roadways, alleys and sidewalks.
Pavement lifting is a non-disruptive, cost-effective, long-lasting solution for correcting settlement on panels connecting sections of concrete or panel misalignment.
24 Hour Streets Emergency
Emergency services are provided to remove hazards to public roadways and alleys that would hinder traffic. Hazardous conditions are radio dispatched for immediate repair or barricading. Conditions that are not an immediate hazard are scheduled along with other repair work. In an emergency, please call our 24-hour Emergency Services staff at 214.509.4530.
Storm Damage Responses
At times of high winds, heavy rains or freezing temperatures, the City's streets and drainage crews are ready to respond. The City's priority is to clear all roadways to allow for safe travel, which includes the removal of debris from all streets, alleys, and public property within the City.
Property owners are responsible for the removal of tree limbs or debris from their property. Depending on the severity of the storm, it may require assistance from the City to dispose of tree limbs or debris. This may include curb side pick up of storm damage debris. The City's response may vary depending on the impact of the storm. Details will be posted on the website when necessary.
Report a street problem
For additional information or to obtain the status of a reported street problem please contact, Community Services at 214.509.4500.
Streetlight repair
For additional information or to obtain the status of a streetlight repair please contact the Engineering Department at 214.509.4576.

This former salesman must have a true knack for comedy, or a stroke of luck playing in his favor. Many might favor that it's a definite knack.
Not so long ago Kevin Hart was selling shoes in Philadelphia when he decided to try his hand at comedy. After winning a few local amateur comedy contests, Hart kissed the shoe store goodbye and embarked on his journey to stardom.
This young entertainer has performed at such venues across the nation, including Los Angeles well renowned The Comedy Store. Hart even offered his comedic skills to Montreal's prestigious Just for Laughs comedy festival.
Perhaps Kevin's biggest break will be the starring role in the ABC sitcom The Big House. Based loosely on Hart's comedic material, the sitcom is already a favorite among fans and critics, and is predicted to be the launching pad that hurls Hart into primetime stardom.

Do you love animals, the environment, or sustainable energy? Perhaps you see yourself working for a well-known organization such as Greenpeace, the World Wildlife Fund, or PETA. Or, maybe you want to work with a local animal shelter or environmental awareness nonprofit. If this describes you, then the Environment emphasis area may be of interest.
Many of the courses in this emphasis are offered through the Environmental Studies program, which may be a good option if you are looking for coursework that is more science-focused.
Students interested in the Environmental emphasis are required to take ECON 260: Principles of Microeconomics and Econ 261: Principles of Macroeconomics as well as four of the following, from at least three different departments:

Born December 26, 1980, in Decatur, GA, to a deeply religious family, Ryan Shaw began singing in the Pentecostal church when he was only three years old, taking his first solo when he was five. Music, specifically, religious music, continued to be an all-important part of his life, and while he was enrolled at Georgia State University he tried out, and made the cut, for a part in a gospel musical. In 1998 he dropped out of school and joined the cast of Tyler Perry's I Know I've Been Changed, moving to New York to perform, and when the play's run ended, he found work singing old Motown hits, dance songs from the 1950s and '60s (many of which were unfamiliar to Shaw, who had listened to little secular music before leaving Georgia), and as a member of the band the Fabulous Soul Shakers, which he joined in 2004. The group's guitarist, Johnny Gale, convinced his friend Jimmy Bralower to check the young singer out, and in 2006, after being impressed by what he heard, Bralower, a percussionist and producer, invited Shaw and Gale to his home to record a short demo. This got the attention of Columbia, and in 2007, This Is Ryan Shaw, a collection of covers from artists like Wilson Pickett, Bobby Womack, and Jackie Wilson, as well as some original songs, was released. ~ Marisa Brown

The other Rodenbach styles are rated 100. However, this one not much for me.
A: I poured it several times to study the head because it seemed the bottle had flat off despite a 12/17/14 date. On 2nd pour, aggressively into a tulip, a nice dense foamy tan head appeared. But it failed to last and atfer that it leaves some dotty lacing, and again feels thing and flat.
Murky, muddy, red-brown body.
Smell: I get cider, decaying wood, vinegar, and prunes. I dont get enough malt and fruit. I dont get enough complexity or strength, but it betters as it warms.
Taste: Follows the smell dominated by cider and fruit balsamic vinegar. Some oak, and hard underneath. Hint of vanilla? Got to let it warm, but it never rises above prune cider for me.
Mouthfeel: Thin-bodied. Low carbonation. Slightly sticky mouth feel, but not cloying.
Drinkability: A half portion might be ideal aperitif. Otherwise, I put this aside to drink a more approachable beer profile and finish it at a warmer temperature. Definitely want to split it with some one, or maybe even save it to cook with tomorrow.
I prefer beers that I want to finish now.

Most importantly, we want you to know that Classic Slashdot isn't going away until we're confident that the new site is ready.
I have a better idea. It can be accomplished by deleting the last nine words of the sentence: "Classic Slashdot isn't going away."
It ain't broke. Don't fix it.
Oh, it's even more fiendishly perfect than what you describe.
See, at the end of the 10-year repayment period, the remaining balance does, in fact, get wiped, but the amount that's wiped is treated as taxable income. So if you've "racked up all the debt you want" and have $100,000 worth of forgiveness, say hello to a $35,000 tax bill.
What's that? You can't pay the tax on your newfound "wealth"? Well then, men with guns will come to your house, seize your property, and put you in a cage.
It's not feudalism, it's something rather worse.
He chose these particular tools because they all had open APIs, which allowed him to mash them together easily into the solution. They were easy to use, so reviewers could learn the system with little or no training, and they were mobile, so users could access the system from any device. In particular he wanted reviewers to be able to use the system on a tablet.

I'm a little drunk, so I read that as "the efficient conduit for the transmission of God's word to earth". Which still kind of works.
I haven't much to say, other than from one New York lawyer to another, BIG UPS. Keep doing your thing, Ray. You'll wear the bastards down eventually!
How will this shiny new tax be collected and enforced?
One option is to put the onus on the retailers to maintain a database of all the different sales tax rates in the country, so they can collect the appropriate amount on the purchase. At least in New York, sales taxes vary by county -- the State takes 4% and the county takes anywhere from 3-5%. That's 62 lines on the spreadsheet, just for New York. I think NYC adds a point or two as well. This would have to be correlated with a ZIP code table, so the retailer would know which ZIPs are in which jurisdictions. It's tedious, but not impossible. Perhaps the IRS could spend some of our money to draw up the tables and maintain them.
Another avenue is to put the onus on the buyer to calculate and remit the appropriate taxes to the authorities. If I were a sociopath, I'd like this method better. It doesn't burden the retailers and it provides a delicious means of social control, not to mention a wealth of interesting information on what people are buying. Let's take a non-Amazon company as an example, since Amazon has bought exemptions from State sales taxes:
NewEgg is contacted by the NY Department of Taxation and Finance and ordered to turn over their NY sales records. No warrant is required, since the request is for tax compliance purposes. DTF runs the records through their computer system and looks up the tax records of each NewEgg customer. If the customer didn't report the sale, they're in big trouble. If it's a significant amount that they didn't report, or there's a pattern of non-compliance, off to private prison with you!
Cue the naysayers saying I'm a paranoiac and Our Glorious Overlords would never do something so fiendish...
Once you're a made member of the club, scrubbing your data and enjoying some privacy is a [perk].
Along with being able to turn off the telescreen?
Right. I think people are getting hung up on the GP's incorrect use of "duress". There are a bunch of reasons why a contractual clause might get thrown out: there's the public policy rationale, as you note, there's undue influence (though judging from Wikipedia, that might not work in the U.S., as both cited cases are Australian), and there's my personal favorite:
Unconscionability. It's a two-prong attack:
1. You have to prove that whatever your employer offered you in exchange for signing the contract (viz., a job, at a certain rate of pay, for certain hours) was so grossly inadequate compared to what you had to give up, that to enforce the contractual terms would be unfair.
2. You have to prove that your employer leveraged his greater bargaining power to get you to sign the contract.
Essentially, you have to prove that both the terms of the contract and the manner in which it was negotiated were both grossly unfair. #2 is a lot easier to prove than #1, given the state of the economy and the desperation of many job-seekers, but #2 alone isn't sufficient. In order to break a contract on unconscionability grounds, the terms have to be really, really onerous, on the order of "you agree to give up your firstborn for indentured servitude to this company" or "if you quit, you agree never to work within a fifty-mile radius of this company ever again".
It is by coffee alone I set my mind in motion. It is by the juice of the arabica bean that the thoughts acquire speed, the hands acquire shaking. The shaking becomes a warning. It is by coffee alone I set my mind in motion.
Planes and Ships don't rely on GPS.
If you have a license to pilot any of them, you have learned how to navigate without.
Right you are. My sextant, watch, Nautical Almanac, and H.O. 249 Sight Reduction Tables laugh at these puny exploits. Let me know when researchers have found flaws in the apparent motion of the celestial spheres.
In that case, you could use one of the manual ones at diybookscanner.com and turn the pages yourself, trading speed for safety.
29,025 and presumably climbing. I say, great. Good riddance.
Fifth Amendment, maybe? "Private property [shall not] be taken for public use, without just compensation." It's certainly arguable that patent rights, as a form of IP, constitute some form of "private property". If one takes the position that IP does constitute "property", then it's possible that abolishing existing patents (essentially, releasing those ideas to the public domain) would be considered a taking for Fifth Amendment purposes, requiring compensation. It's iffy, but possible.
The secret of success is sincerity. Once you can fake that, you've got it made. -- Jean Giraudoux

Brentuximab injection is used to treat a type of cancer called Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL). It is given to patients who have received an autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) or other cancer treatments that did not work well.
Brentuximab injection is also used to treat patients with systemic anaplastic large cell lymphoma (sALCL). It is used after at least one other cancer medicine was given and did not work well.
Brentuximab interferes with the growth of cancer cells, which are then destroyed by the body. Since the growth of normal body cells may also be affected by brentuximab, other effects will also occur. Some of these may be serious and must be reported to your doctor. Other effects, such as a skin rash, may not be serious but may cause concern. Some effects do not occur until months or years after the medicine is used.
This medicine is to be administered only by or under the immediate supervision of your doctor.
This product is available in the following dosage forms:

Tip #1: New Formula. Get shade matched. bareMinerals READY Foundation shades differ from Original and Matte foundation and may appear lighter on your skin. To find your best shade we recommend visiting a store to get shade matched or use our shade matching chart. Tip #2: As a general guide try going 1-2 shade families up from your typical Original or Matte foundation shade. For example: Fairly Light users may consider Fairly Medium or Medium Beige. Medium Beige users may consider Medium Tan or Golden Tan. Tip #3: For full coverage, use the Precision Face brush. Tap your brush very lightly onto the foundation. Buff gently onto skin with long, graceful strokes. A little goes a long way. For medium coverage, use the Flawless Application brush. Tap your brush very lightly onto the foundation. Buff gently onto skin in a circular motion. A little goes a long way. |

Comments about bareMinerals READY Foundation Broad Spectrum SPF 20, Golden Fair, .49 oz:
I have fair skin for asian. This compact foundation seems to oxidise within a few hours time and make me look pasty. Otherwise, good coverage. Not much of color choice though. Won't recommend or buy this compact again.

Not nearly the quality of the original Bare Escentuals mineral foundation. This version is very cakey and really doesn't cover effectively.

Wins for Barca, Real; Atletico beaten
Lionel Messi could not produce a goal to mark the birth of his first son but Barcelona still took the points with a straightforward 3-1 La Liga win over Celta Vigo.
Three goals in the space of five minutes sparked the match into life after the 20-minute mark as Adriano and David Villa scored either side of Mario Bermejo's strike for Celta.
Jordi Alba then wrapped up the win for the Catalan club just after the hour.
World player of the year Messi became a father for the first time this week, and played the full match tonight.
Barcelona moved three points clear at the top after Atletico Madrid's unbeaten start to the season was ended with a 2-0 defeat at Valencia.
Atletico had won eight matches on the trot in the league, but succumbed to Roberto Soldado's 21st-minute goal and a stoppage-time strike from Nelson Valdez at the Mestalla.
Real Madrid moved into third place and handed Jose Mourinho his 100th win in charge of the club with a 4-0 victory over Real Zaragoza.
Gonzalo Higuain and Angel Di Maria put the hosts in a commanding position with a goal apiece in a two-minute spell midway through the first half.
Zaragoza were unfortunate not to get back into the game early in the second period as Jose Mari hit the crossbar and Helder Postiga had a goal wrongly ruled out for offside.
Madrid wrapped the scoring up in the final two minutes as Michael Essien and Luka Modric scored their first goals since swapping the Premier League for the Spanish capital.
Rayo Vallecano inflicted a first home defeat of the season on Malaga, who dropped to fourth, thanks to two goals from Piti.
The midfielder opened the scoring after 11 minutes but the visitors were pegged back four minutes into the second period by a Martin Demichelis header.
However, Rayo got the winner they deserved on the hour mark when Piti fired into the bottom corner for his fourth goal of the season.

Has anyone had any experience with importing Micro-Station survey information (i.e. field to finish) into Civil 3D 2013? Is this possible? What is the best workflow procedures?
Thanks in advance!
I use MAPIMPORT.
It depends on how you want to use the data. You can import dumb linework from a DGN file which you can manipulate and use just as any other vanilla Autocad entities. You can import COGO points, alignments, and surfaces via Land XML.
If you want to utilize the Survey tools in Civil 3D then you will have to start from scratch by either processing the raw survey data or by converting the dumb cad graphics into Survey points and features.
There is no single tool to convert Microstation based Survey data into Civil 3D survey data.
Thanks for the ideas!
What exactly is microstaion survey data? Survey data is survey data, you choose the process from field to office. We keep everything simple and only use ascii files in our processing. This way we eliminate any cross-platform issues. While there may be some recoding to meet our setup, it has never been too complicated and works about as good as one could expect.
What do you mean by MicroStation survey information?
We use InRoads to process out data collector files. The InRoads coding is very similar to the linking codes introduces in Civil 3D 2010.
I have replaced the defaults as follows B=ST, BC=PC, EC=PT, CPN=JPT, CLS=CL, RT=DIST, OC=SPC
In addition, it is possible to use RECT and CIR, except that in InRoads, to get the two options that RECT allows, you actually have two different commands. one is like RECT with 2 points and on offset while the other is like 3 points and closes by computing the remaining point. InRoads equivalent if CIR only allows the three point mode.
And it has a totally different "offset" tool that uses offset shots at the start of the lead figure and then creates parallel offsets based upon the offestes of those shots.
It has no X command and does not need the E command.
That said, if you stick to the codes that do match, it is 100% possible to take an InRoads survey and process it in Civil 3D. I recently tested and confirmed it. I am only working with coordinate files exported from InRoads with all point coding intact.

Hi Tiffany, I am still trying to figure out how Bloggy Moms works. :)
Thank you for the kind welcome. I am a newbie and trying to make my way through the unfamiliar blogging waters. This seems like a good start. looking forward to having time to look around (which is not on a weekend with three kids!)
Hi Tiffany. Nice job on your blog. I'm planning to learn a lot.
Thank you for the welcome! Can't wait to dig in. xoxo
Wow! Thank you for the welcome. :) Lots of info for me to check out. I'm excited to get to know some of these moms!!
So happy to be a part of Bloggy Moms! I need to get busy now :) We are iced in here in Texas so I have been able to catch up on some blogs. Glad to be a part of the group!
I am honored to be here and would love to talk to you about helping promote Boggy Moms. My unique talent allows me to garner attention. My story is similar to a great many but the path I chose to escape my problems makes this a compelling story. I am a former teacher and am trying to help others to see that anyone can escape their problems if they can find the keys to get out of their unique situation.
Hello! So happy to find this site! Hoping that not only will I learn a thing or two, or 100, but I may contribute back as well!
Hello! Thanks soooo very much and I am happy to be here. I am a newbie to blogging and everything related to it and I am looking forward to be a part of this great community.
Thanks for the welcome! Just looking around, trying to figure out if I'm in the right place. My blog: Tasting Reading Sketching Words: Literacy for all Learners, is for Moms of kids who learn differently, or Mom themselves who learn differently! I am a Mom of 3 children, 2 step-children, and a grandma of one. I'm a former school administrator, a reading specialist and special education specialist. Hope I can chat with people, and offer thoughts and ideas, about learning differences.
Thank you so much! I'm excited to be here :-)
Hi Tiffany. Quite an operation yo've got going here. It's great to be here and i'm trying to figure out how to best make this work for me and how best I can contribute. Thanks.

Young mothers stick together!
Despite rumors suggesting otherwise, "Teen Mom" star Maci Bookout and Bristol Palin are gal pals.
"We are good friends," Bookout, 19, tells UsMagazine.com. Tennessee native Bookout and Alaskan Palin, 20, got acquainted at various events devoted to education about teen motherhood and abstinence. "We're friends outside of ... TV and the press," Bookout explains.
And although they both have been the subject of intense media scrutiny, that's not what they bond over. "We talk more about our kids and our babies' dads and stuff," Bookout tells Us.
It helps that their little ones are just a few months apart in age: Bentley, Bookout's son with ex-fiance Ryan Edwards, recently turned 2; Tripp, Palin's boy with ex-fiance Levi Johnston, turns 2 in December.
"We're not BFFs," Bookout clarifies. "But we definitely keep in touch and make sure everything is going good with each other."
What about rumors that Palin didn't want Bookout or any other "Teen Mom" stars in the audience for "Dancing With the Stars"? "I definitely don't think it's true," says Bookout, who attended a recent taping of the ABC show, where Palin is a semifinalist. "It was actually a lot of fun -- upbeat and hyper!" Bookout said, adding that she even votes for her buddy.
Another report claims the duo will team up for a spin-off reality show together. Also bogus, Bookout insists; Palin even joked about the rumor with a text. "She was like, 'So, I was just wondering how our new show is going,'" Bookout says. "We just laugh about it."
