Well, that didn't take long. A mere five days after Brian Krzanich took the reins as the new CEO of Intel, he's shaking things up at an organizational level.
Krzanich has reorganized key business groups and created a new "New Devices" division to focus on emerging trends, including "ultra-mobile" devices, reports AllThingsD. Mike Bell, who formerly co-ran Intel's mobile unit -- most notably in the push to bring x86 to Android -- will take leadership of the new division.

"The group will be tasked with turning cool technology and business model innovations into products that shape and lead markets," Intel said in a statement to AllThingsD.
Reuters first reported the changes after an anonymous source came forward with the information. Intel spokesman Chuck Mulloy confirmed to Reuters that Krzanich had sent out an internal email outlining the changes, but didn't elaborate further on shake-up details.
We've reached out to Intel and will update this post when the company gets back to us.
New devices?
What, exactly, falls under the purview of the New Devices division? The very name is cloaked in ambiguity, and the short statement provided to AllThingsD doesn't clarify much.
The most straightforward possible explanation -- and one hinted at by all the "ultra-mobile" and "cool technology" talk -- is that the New Devices division was created to spearhead Intel's push into "beyond-smartphone" devices (like Google Glass and the Nike+ Fuelband) to prevent the company from being caught as flat-footed in future arenas as it was with the rise of mobile.
Intel's upcoming Silvermont Atom chips will be its first processors truly built from the ground up for the power efficiencies required in mobile devices.
When Krzanich was named CEO, former Intel software honcho Renee James was also named president of the company. At the time, the Wall Street Journal reported that the duo was chosen because of their plans for moving into "new devices."
"That is absolutely what won them the job," former Intel chairman Andy Bryant told the paper. "Brian and Renee delivered a strategy for Intel that is pretty dramatic."
In 2012, Intel released a software framework designed to help manage data flowing in and out of the so-called "Internet of things" -- the vast collection of network-connected devices, like smart TVs and app-powered fridges, that are becoming increasingly ubiquitous in our lives.

Skeete turns on the power to shut up his critics
9:46am Tuesday 15th April 2014 in Sport By Ziad Chaudry
Battersea boxer Bradley Skeete promised to shut up his critics, and he did just that with a ruthless display at the Copper Box Arena on Saturday.
The 26-year-old was too much for the vastly experienced Italian Tobia Giuseppe Loriga as he successfully defend his WBA Inter-continental welterweight title with a seventh round stoppage.
In that seventh round Loriga kept on absorbing the shots without any response, causing referee Terry O'Connor to stop the contest in 1.34.
Skeete, now unbeaten in 16 pro fights, said: "Before the fight I said I was going to prove a few of the critics wrong. Well I'm glad I shut them up.
"I know when I get back on the internet I'll still have more, people calling me up to tell me I cannot punch but I've just proved myself tonight.
"I was a bit eager but I wanted to put on a good performance. I wanted to shine and wanted to prove what I'm all about.
"And I stopped a guy who's been nine rounds with Julio Cesar Chavez Jnr and who's mixed with the high and world level and he's been stopped three times out of 32 fights – not bad for someone who can't punch."
With Birmingham's talented Frankie Gavin set to relinquish his British mantle to pursue the European crown later in the year, it could open to door for Skeete to contest for the vacant title.
"People are talking about me in line for the British title and you don't get that if you are not in that level," Skeete added.

Lee Jeans Outlet
Lees is a famous brand of denim jeans which was introduced in 1889 in Salina, Kansas as Lee Mercantile Company. The company is owned by VF Corporation, the largest apparel company in the world which also happens to be the parent company of other famous brands like Wrangler, JanSport, EastPak and many more. The main office of this company is located in Merriam, Kansas. The first Lee denim produced was work wear - dungarees as well as shirts, which was commonly used that time. Lee is proud to say that they are the leading retailer and manufacturer of casual and work attire, with more than 400 employees in U.S. alone.
Today, Lee focuses on creating more features and options for their time available Cheap jeans. Although, plenty of trousers can be bought from almost anywhere, Lee jeans are still on top of the business. Every single major stores throughout the world that sells jeans and denims have a Lee product available. This alone displays how famous and trusted the brand is.
In 1913, the world was introduced to the Union-All Work Jumpsuit which was a major leap in the clothing technology. It was also the first of the numerous innovations that Lee was responsible of bringing. During the 20's, Lee focused on creating denim products that are very innovative and useful to every customers. The company was mainly considered to be a work wear company. With this demand, Lee systematically increased the strength of the jeans that they are making.
When 1920 enters, Lee again introduced yet another very important parts of what now become Lee's heritage. The first one was the Lee Buddy Doll, which was originally intended to be just a promotional gimmick. However, the society embraced the said product and make it a popular play toy, even making it the second most sold doll in U.S. during that time. Secondly, there was the World's first work Overall.
Lee was also the first one to incorporate a zip fly on their jeans. From early 30's to mid 40's, Lee became the largest work wear brand in America. It manage to surpass all of its competitors due to its high quality products. When 50's finally entered, a new era of clothing design has arrived. The world was introduced to the latest casual clothing which became the reason for the fading of evening dress as casual attire.
Lee felt that there was still room for casual clothing on the market, and so they released their first collections there. While the initial acceptance of the clothing style was poor, it turns out to be best selling as time passes. People started choosing denim products as their casual attire and soon spread the popularity of the brand. When Lee products became very successful in America, the company decided to venture to another countries and expand their scope to many different neighboring countries. Men's Lee Jeans UK was the first to appear through the series of independent distributors.
When 1960's end, Lee had already established branches in 50 countries. The following year, Lee introduced yet again another form of fashion, this brand is now known as the Lee 101. The company felt that focusing on a single stream of clothing design would not be a better marketing strategy. With this idea, they created more informal attire which fits for casual fashion.
The Lee men's jeans was one of the main focus of the brand. Later on, Lee created other forms of clothing such as shorts, t-shirts and sweat shirts. National Denim Day was also established by Lee company in 1996. It is an event wherein participants are required to wear denim when working and give $5. This contribution was created to help the Breast Cancer patients. Today, Lee gradually expands their own trend of fashion through the 80's and 90's.
There's no denying that jeans are very popular among teenagers. For some individuals, a branded jean is a show of fashion statement which tell the people your character. However, have you ever wondered what's it like when Lee jeans or Levi's jeans were not yet that famous? Here's a story that might open your minds up.
Today, Lee has created various designs of jeans which caters every fashion needs of a certain society. From skinny jeans to low waist jeans, indigo blue to flaming red; Lee jeans have truly been a part of every individuals clothing. Searching for the best pair of jeans to match up with your fashion sense can sometimes be a difficult task. Good thing that there are plenty of designs to choose from, making these things not a problem anymore. If you wondered how and when was the first blue jeans created, you might want to have a little history lesson about this particular clothing.
The very popular blue jeans which is worn by many people today was initially intended to be work by workers during the second world war. It could be the sturdy look of the jean that attracts many people. In 1950's, blue jeans was only worn by teenagers as a sign of protest to the system (government). It was only in 1960's that jeans was accepted by the American culture.
Blue jeans was first created from denim fabric which was created in a certain town near Turin called Chieri. Many people said that the raw materials used for these early blue jeans came from France. Blue jeans was initially created for sailors because of its multipurpose functions. The navies back then thought that blue jeans are very versatile and suitable for work and casual.
Lee is truly an amazing brand in the clothing industry. They offer various fashionable and durable designs at a very reasonable price. Every person has the opportunity to pick the best design. The flexibility of Lee products is so great that it fits every individuals with different preference and needs. Apart from that, Lee is truly an amazing brand. It constitutes price value with the quality of the product.Team University of the Pacific raised more than $2,500 so far as part of the Lee Denim Day promotion, which supports the American Cancer Society's fight against breast cancer. Funds collected through the Stockton campus stand at $691 at this time. However, the dental school's campaign, headed up by the pediatric clinic, had a runaway success with their October 12 event, which raised more than $2,200.
An initiative of Lee Jeans, Denim Day is a national fundraiser that has raised nearly $90 million for breast cancer research since its inception in 1996. In addition to soliciting $5 donations that gave participants the once-a-year ability to wear denim to work or school, the donations were supplement with proceeds from a bake sale.
"Wearing jeans to show support for the fight against breast cancer is a fun way to bring the dental school community together," said Magda Rinaldi, a Pediatric Clinic dental teaching assistant who co-coordinated the event.
The donations generated from nationwide participation in Denim Day support treatment and research, including the development of an early detection blood test in collaboration with the Breast Cancer Biomarker Discovery Project.

Town Square
Columbus vs Yom Kippur
Original post made by HypocrisyHater on Oct 9, 2006
on Oct 9, 2006 at 9:46 pm
Strange? Hardly. Columbus Day is sort of a vestigial holiday. Served its purpose at one time, hardly resonates now, and easy to give up considering that so few people care.
I don't know the exact percentage of Jewish students and teachers in PAUSD, but I guess the idea is to take a local holiday since so many people are going to be absent anyway, and more people are better served by that decisions than by honoring Columbus. Heck - people barely acknowledge veterans on Veterans' Day and Memorial Day, hardly talk about MLK, Lincoln or Washington... Columbus is waaaay down on that list.
on Oct 9, 2006 at 11:07 pm
The school district should not be sneaky about the holiday. If it feels obligated to shut down operation to allow observance of Yom Kippur, then make it official. I'd be curious to know what other school districts around the country give two days off for Yom Kippur and call them "Local Holiday" and "Staff Development Day."
Also, the excuse that "so many people will be absent anyway" doesn't hold water. Wall Street doesn't shut down even though the same excuse can be used.
on Oct 9, 2006 at 11:51 pm
I'm not sure I follow your point when it comes to staff development days. They really are staff development days. They're not just called that. The staff members really do staff development. Those days have to be placed somewhere in the school. Are you suggesting that the district is trying to give Jewish people some extra benefit?
If you want to make a comparison, how about comparing school policies to other school policies. Here's a thought - why do schools observe Christmas? Why do they always put spring break next to Easter? I'm not suggesting we change that, but think about the reasons for it.
You can't really compare Wall Street to schools. Gimme a break - totally, totally different types of institutions in every way. But can I ask you a question? Why did you pick an institution so symbolic of money in a discussion relating to Jews?

PEORIA, Ill. -- They're sometimes called 'crazy contacts'. The colored, cosmetic contacts are popular at Halloween and can often be found online and at costume shops.
But they're also dangerous, as one area high school student learned during a visit to the school nurse for eye irritation.
"The school nurse said, 'have you done anything differently? Have you been around anybody, have you been exposed to conjunctivitis or an eye infection in any way?' And the student said, 'the only thing I'm doing different is...' and popped out this contact lens," explained Dr. Brian Zachariah, chief medical coordinator for the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation.
Zachariah's office was subsequently contacted and it confiscated over 100 of the cosmetic lenses from the central Illinois convenience store where the student purchased them.
Selling the 'crazy contacts' to someone without a prescription is a violation of state law.
Dr. Jacqueline Crow, an optometrist at Illinois Eye Center, says wearing them isn't very smart either.
"Wearing contacts in general can put you at a higher risk for eye infections," Crow said. "The second concern is that, for contacts, one size does not fit all. And the third concern is that these contacts are not necessarily FDA approved."
Dr. Crow advises people to consult a professional when looking for cosmetic contacts and warns be careful what you put in your eyes just to make a splash at that Halloween party you're planning to attend.
"Everyone wants to augment their costumes, add special effects and give their costumes a special touch," said Crow. "But by buying contacts over the counter, those are not fit to your eye and they can damage your vision."
Selling the contacts without a prescription can also hurt, carrying fines of up to $10,000.

Dan Buccheri: Best Replacement in a Leading Role in a Musical.. for all the stunning actors and actresses who take over a leading role in a Musical that's been running... this would give credit to many who deserve it and also potentially launch the careers of many talented performers
khemingway: best replacement! too many outstanding performances by people who didn't originate roles go entirely unrecognized!
realityrobert: Best replacement in both plays and musicals. There are a lot of great actors that take over a role.
This category was first introduced in 2005 for the 2006 Tony Awards, but an award was never given to a performer. Perhaps it's time to reintroduce this idea. Continued...

The third annual LED summit, presented by Intertech Corporation, will take place October 21-23 at the Hyatt Islandia Hotel in San Diego, CA. This three-day conference will bring together leading developers and executives from the traditional lighting community, high-brightness LED (HB LED) manufacturers, component and equipment suppliers, lighting designers, and major end users to discuss the newest opportunities and advancements in HB LED markets, solid-state lighting applications, and technologies.
Light-emitting diodes have evolved significantly in the last five years, with growth rates as high as 58% a year. LEDs have been successfully used in traffic signals and exit signs and are now competing for market share in automotive and aeronautical applications, signage, architectural, contour, and roadway lighting. Technical hurdles still need to be overcome before LEDs become a truly viable option for the general illumination market. Problems include improved white light color rendering, integrating efficient optics and fixture design, and developing thermal resistant packaging, and industry standardization and universally accepted testing equipment.
Intertech's conference is designed for executives from companies involved with the manufacture, research, design, marketing, and end-use of high-brightness LEDs. Conference sessions will include global market outlook and market forecast, standardization and code issues, industry collaboration and harmonization, status of intellectual property, safety and testing, efficacy, color rendering, and chromaticity, environmental concerns and benefits, optics and luminaire design, and much more.
Speaker recruitment for this conference is now underway. To submit a topic idea, or to obtain more information on attendance, exhibition, or sponsorship opportunities, call Patricia Kinzer, conference director, at 207-781-9800, fax 207-781-2150, or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com.

VIDEO: Disabled actors tackle hate crime
It's a particularly sad reflection on our society - it's thought nine out of ten people with learning disabilities are bullied or harassed each year. But now a group of actors, who themselves have learning difficulties, are hoping to change that.
They've been staging a play for police and social workers to highlight the problems of hate crime. It's called Living without Fear and it's hoped it will give a voice to the victims and help them cope.
Andy Dickenson reports and speaks to Ch Sup Insp Wayne Jones of Sussex Police and Jane Jessop, founder of Blue Apple Theatre.

Lhasa attractions center around Tibetan Buddhism of which Lhasa is the capital. The Potala Palace, home of the divinely chosen Tibetan ruler (the Dalai Lama) for centuries, is quite unlike anything else the world has to offer. Buddhist monasteries, temples, hermitages and nunneries surround the city. Barkhor Street is the circuit for pilgrims.
The tourist attractions around Lhasa are rich in Tibetan culture and set in a landscape of austere beauty that inspires religious devotion. Experience the essence of Tibet with our Lhasa tours. Put your mind at ease — we are a trusted tour operator who know how to take the stress out of travel.
Hi John, how many people in your group, please? Since this May, the Tibet government changes the regulation for Tibet Travel Permit (this document is the must for visitors to visit Tibet besides China visa) -The minimum number requires 5 people in each group with the same nationality and enter Tibet from the same destination on the same flight on the same date.
You can visit all these places on a private tour, but you need a tour guide to be with you, which is required by the government.
Yes, your group have to leave Lhasa at the same time, same day and to the same destination and by the same mode of travel.Whitney Liao replied on 2012-12-18

On Monday, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) voted to allow a new array of Internet domain endings.
The trusty old Internet addresses we know and love -- the .coms, .nets, .orgs -- are about to get some new competition.
CNN's Phil Han explains how the domain name, .xxx, has finally been approved for porn sites after a ten year fight.
Coming soon to a website near you: dot-anything
The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers said Friday it approved the .xxx domain for adult web sites after years of nixing the idea.
Porn sites could soon be swapping their .com for the sexier .xxx.
CNN's Pauline Chiou asks attorney Martin Schwimmer about the upside of internationalizing domain names.
The group that controls top-level domain codes for Internet addresses is poised to permit non-Latin language codes for the first time in its history.
The Internet is set to expand, as CNN's Jim Boulden reports.
A group charged with overseeing the development of the Internet voted Thursday to relax the rules on Web site naming conventions -- potentially triggering a virtual domain name gold rush to rival the dotcom boom of the late 1990s.
The Internet's key oversight agency relaxed rules Thursday to permit the introduction of hundreds, perhaps thousands, of new Internet domain names to join ".com"
The group controlling Internet domain names may soon decide whether to relax naming rules and potentially open up a virtual domain name gold rush.
An international agency tasked with the responsibility of setting guidelines for the creation of Internet domain names voted Friday to reject a company's proposal to create an ".xxx" domain for adult Web sites.

I opened the NY Times book review this past weekend and lo and behold there was an essay by the divine Meg Wolitzer called The Second Shelf about how books written by men and women are treated differently.
It was a brilliant piece and I commend the Times for running it especially since we know the numbers of women working and being covered across all areas of that section are unacceptably lower than their male peers. I loved her anecdote when speaking with a man at a party where when she told him she was a writer:
Would I have heard of you?" I dutifully told him my name — no recognition, fine, I'm not that famous — and then, at his request, I described my novels. "You know, contemporary, I guess," I said. "Sometimes they're about marriage. Families. Sex. Desire. Parents and children." After a few uncomfortable moments he called his wife over, announcing that she, who "reads that kind of book," was the one I ought to talk to.
She hits the problem on the head and the problem transcends literature, it pervades our culture. The problem is the fact that issues related to marriage, families, sex, desire, parents, children, relationships and oh so many others ...are seen soft or womanly i.e. not important to the culture, especially when a woman writes about it.
Wolitzer smartly talks about the reception of the writing of Jeffrey Eugenides whose Middlesex is one of my favorite books ever. He also writes about marriage, families, sex, desire...and yet his books are literature and Meg Wolitzer's books are, well, not seen in the same way.
Guest | April 16, 2012 12:29 AM
Hey, did anyone on this thread catch what some Indian dude (I've never heard of him, so I don't really care) said last summer about female writers? I just linked to it below from the NYT. (Apparently he never heard of Jhumpa Lahiri?)
I've never read this guy but I bet his stuff is pretentious B.S. like Franzen craps out. I'm an aspiring novelist myself, and I don't really care if my work is "literature" or not. I hate literary fiction because it's so infinitely boring. I write to entertain, to tell the best story I can and to be creative and imaginative and have fun while doing so. Not trying to run for political office or issue some TL;DR philosophical manifesto. Just to warm readers' hearts and open their eyes, to give them a good laugh and a great read.
Stephen King said J.K. Rowling is a terrific writer, btw. I believe he wasn't as favorable towards Stephenie Meyer but at least he was judging each based on the quality of their work and not on whether they have Y chromosomes or not. I seriously don't think Rowling set out to have Harry Potter earn the Nobel or Pulitzer. The series and its characters, the whole world of Hogwarts and Diagon-Alley will remain an important and memorable enough part of our culture that she deserves "mad props" for delivering to us all. :-)
tina | April 5, 2012 1:21 PM
"We need to figure out a way to stop categorizing topics as either male or female" . You hit the nail on the head Melissa! Interests are not necessarily determined by gender. I thought "The Descendents" was a chick flick, engaging but not academy award winning material...but it happened to be written and directed by men. Therefore it was treated with the appropriate reverence. I'm always surprised by the number of men who like romance movies. I'm like really you don't find this boring...I'm flipping for the action channel.
Kathleen Cromie | April 4, 2012 2:32 PM
One problem is women who write are often assumed to be relating a story about themselves. We are seen as relate-ers while men get to be creators.
Patrice Fitzgerald | April 4, 2012 2:02 PM
Yes. This. It's been going on for a long time.
I write about women with lives, families, desires, and yes... sex lives! But they are also in positions of power in the world. My current novel is about two women vying for the presidency, and a campaign in which race and gender (and sexual desire) create a national controversy. There's even a schlock radio guy who calls the Vice President a slut.
We women, like the other half of the human race, are interested in things in the domestic world and beyond. And we write about them.
Women have been marginalized because we were tied to the home for millenia. The advent of an age where women can choose when and how often to procreate (assuming we can hold on to that!) is finally bringing seismic changes in female preeminence in everything from the creative arts to governance to great wealth. We're here and we're not going away.
And we're writing about it...
Maria | April 4, 2012 1:58 PM
The cocktail party anecdote is a situation I am all too familiar with. Having just written, directed and produced my first feature film (The Wine of Summer, shameless plug), I have often been asked the question, "So what's it about?" Recently I was asked this by a small town television personality, male, early fifties. I gave him my quick one sentence answer, "Uh, well, it's a character driven drama that takes place in Spain, about five central characters whose fates intertwine." He looks down at me, smirks, says, "Oh a chick flick."
Linn | April 4, 2012 12:20 PM
This may not be useful, but sometimes I wonder if it's less about women and men's issues, and more about how we approach it. For example, with the man at the cocktail party, if Ms. Wolitzer had responded early in the conversation with a question of her own, "What kind of books do you like to read?" then she would know how to frame her responses to him. If he says "I don't like to read, but my wife does," then we know it's less about him judging her material and more about he's not a good reader or some other reason. If he says "non-fiction," then we now know he prefers that over fiction, no matter who the author is. If he responds with names of fiction writers similar to her style, then she could explain I write like so-and-so, but with more humor (or less). This can help translate the tone of her writing to him, similar to how when we pitch new movie scripts, we say it's like "Hunger Games" meets "Point Break". Perhaps people just need a better way to introduce themselves, find a better way to communicate (both men and women). Especially new writers. Brand yourself by helping explain why I should bother picking up your book (again, male or female writers). Oh hey, it's kind of like Netflix's - if you like this movie then you may like such and such.
EMH | April 4, 2012 12:14 PM
This is really backward thinking. Most of my friends from journalism school are off doing great things. In fact, one woman I'm friends with is reporting in Cairo now and just moved into a new apartment with her bf. I would think journalism and fiction book writing is where women dominate and are given more of a fair shake than in the scripted TV world.
Bes | April 4, 2012 11:51 AM
Well since this is a site that covers movies I will just point out that Harry Potter, Twilight and Hunger Games were some of the most profitable movies in the last 10 years and they were all stories written by women writers. Ignoring women writers is ignoring potential profits. It is probably a waste of time to try to convince the old men who currently run Corporate Media of this instead it makes more sense for women to set up their own Media companies and make their work available to the audience. With the internet it is no longer possible for Corporate Media to gatekeep women's voices from audiences.
Ruth Harris | April 4, 2012 11:19 AM
Same old, same old. It really gets depressing. Since the 1970's, I've been writing about women'sâand men'sâlives against the background of the massive social and cultural changes of the 20th Century. If a woman writes it, it's fluff. If a man writes it? Ooooohhhh! Literature!
6 months...seriously?? You just got here. Get used to sleeping in a twin bed and eating Ramen
Scorsese also directed Boxcar Bertha. Though, it's probably better we all collectively forget
Thanks for sharing this great news. Iâm sure people come to like your blog and gain benefit from
The female chooses what to do. You undermine her choice & freedom to take off or keep on her

Does not translate text input! Needs major redesign to be a viable translation solution. So if you type text into the source language box, there is no way that I have found to do the translation. I really think this app needs a 'Translate' button. Also when you need to lock the UI thread for a synchronous or asynchronous task, display a progress or indeterminate progress bar instead of disabling one button while allowing the user to send touch events that cause ANR's every time.
Comes in handy I work at a retail store. I used it to translate between myself and a customer who only spoke italian. It was very fun to use :) and very accurate hehe.
Sound is horrible. You could only use the translation for writing not speech. Do not buy. It does not refund!
I love it(:
Very misleading. Sounded like a robot not sure who the other users but they must her languages in robotese. Uninstalled.
One word: Awesome! Tango was definitely designed with the user in mind. The app is self explanatory and easy to use. I would recommend it to anyone.
Great on the EVO!

SPECIAL OFFER: - Limited Time Only!
(The ad below will not display on your printed page)
Q. Does every parent end up buying their child something every time they go to the store? My son is 5 years old and he makes out like a bandit every time. Recently we went shopping for a few things for dinner and we ended up with a Tonka Dump truck, Scooby Graham Crackers, and some candy. Am I spoiling him? How can I put a stop to this behavior?
A: Many parents find themselves in exactly the same position as you, buying their children items from a store simply to appease them and avoid a scene. If you truly want to break this begging and buying habit between you and your son, you'll need to develop a plan and adhere to it perfectly consistently.
Here is how to proceed. Next time you go to store, make a list of grocery, household, or clothing items that you will purchase. Ask your child if there is one item he needs or wants. If the item is within reason and your budget, add it to the list. Do your best through negotiation and compromise to determine one object that will be his to choose and purchase.
When at the store, stick to the list. If you notice or think of an additional purchase, put it on hold for that day. Don't do yourself what you don't want your son to do. If your son sees an additional item he'd like, say in monotone, "We will only be buying the items on the list."
Remember you're trying to break your son's demanding ways when at a store, so it's critical that you stick to the list yourself, modeling thoughtful consumerism. The way to break that habit is to allow the list to dictate what you purchase rather than an impulse.
Of course, you might have a perfectly good reason to purchase an additional item, but for now, when your son is by your side, you must model buying restraint. Ultimately you're trying to create in your son a person who shops with thought and planning, not desire alone.
You must be prepared for whining, anger, or a temper tantrum in the store. Your son expects to get his way; he expects to get what he wants when he wants it. When he's denied, he'll be indignant. If the scene turns ugly, leave the store, and go to your car or walk around the block until your son calms down. It might be necessary to go home. This approach is inconvenient, but to make a change in your son's behavior you must be willing to carry out your plan. In time he'll change -- but realize that it might take up to a month for him to learn a new approach to shopping.
By adhering to the list, he's learning to plan what he buys while you teach him to delay gratification of his needs and wants. You're also attempting to help him learn to accept the fact that he can't always be instantly gratified. He'll develop character when he learns that he will be fine even if he doesn't receive the truck, crackers, or cookies that catch his eye.

Thursday afternoon Alabama House Speaker Mike Hubbard and Representative Ken Johnson will stop in Trinity to talk jobs.
Both lawmakers will discuss the closure of International Paper. They'll also focus on how to recruit new jobs to Lawrence and Morgan Counties.
International Paper is Lawrence county's biggest employer. Officials with IP said the demand for paper has declined and is the reason for the plant shutting down.
In March, International Paper is set to close for good and 1,100 workers will lose their jobs.
Thursday's meeting starts at 2 p.m. at the Jack Daniel's Cooperage in Trinity.

Leigh dad saves sister's life by donating kidney
Updated 1:16pm Thursday 20th February 2014 in News
A BROTHER'S selfless act has given a lifeline to a mother whose kidneys were failing.
When mum-of-one Kelly Rushorth was told three years ago that one of her kidneys wasn't working and the function of her other one was declining, her younger brother Daniel, aged 34, stepped up to offer her an irreplaceable gift.
Unwilling to put her on dialysis and risk the function of Kelly's working kidney, the family were told that it was only a matter of time before she would need a kidney transplant.
Daniel, of Fell Street, Leigh, said: "The whole family rallied round when we found out and four of us turned out to be matches. I wanted to donate my kidney though because we had always been very close and there is only just over a year between us in age.
"I've done pretty much everything I wanted to in life, I've had my kids and I wanted to give her a chance too.
"It was just a waiting game from when we were told to when the transplant took place but I just wanted to help give Kelly that lifeline so that she can have a normal life.
"Kelly had a very difficult pregnancy and suffered with pre-eclampsia which I think is what contributed to her kidneys failing but the operation went really well.
"Kelly has to go to hospital three times a week to make sure her body doesn't reject the kidney but we have been told it is taking really well.
"Everyone has been so supportive, it has really surprised me how many people have come to support us.
"I'm off work now for 12 weeks as my job involves a lot of heavy lifting and to be honest I am bored but I'll be okay."
The operation took place on February 4 at Liverpool Hospital and both patients were discharged last week and are both recovering at home surrounded by their families and friends.
Kelly, aged 36, who also lives on Fell Street and used to work as a carer at an old people's home, said: "I am so lucky because I had lots of family willing to donate a kidney but I am very grateful to Daniel for offering.
"I am a bit tired but doing okay at the moment and I just want to thank him for what he has done."

Arrowmont weighs purchasing its site
David Willard, executive director of the Arrowmont School of Arts & Crafts, has posted an update on the school's web site regarding the status of its Gatlinburg property.
Among other things, the statement says Arrowmont's lease expires in 2011 and that the Pi Beta Phi fraternity is unwilling to extend the lease. Willard said the school is exploring the possibility of purchasing the land, and is also looking at a possible move.
The Mountain Press broke the news, and you can check out their story here.
Earlier this year, Pi Beta Phi announced plans to sell the property to a developer, and a group of local residents outlined plans for an entertainment venue featuring water parks, hotels and shops. The fraternity later announced that the sale negotiations had ended.
Here's the full text of Willard's recent statement:
Many of our friends have been asking about Pi Beta Phi Fraternity's plan to sell the property leased by Arrowmont. The Fraternity has withdrawn from the original negotiation so there is no sale imminent, but we understand that it is still their intention to sell the land at some point in the future. The Fraternity has title to the land and it appears that Arrowmont does not have anything other than our lease to secure our position on the property. With this in mind, we are moving forward on several fronts.
Our current lease expires in August 2011 and the Fraternity is not willing to extend the lease at this time. We are investigating the possibility of purchasing the land. This requires that we determine the value of the property and whether Arrowmont can gather the necessary financial support from public and private sources to make an acceptable offer to the Fraternity.
At the same time, we are looking at the possibility of relocating the School. Several individuals and organizations have expressed interest in having Arrowmont in their communities. We are evaluating every location and considering the ramifications and financial commitment that will be needed to move.
As you can imagine, both of these scenarios are complicated and challenging. Staff, board members and community friends are working hard to gather information that will help inform our decisions. This process will continue until we have enough data to make a recommendation that we believe will ensure the future stability and success of the organization.
One thing we are NOT considering is closing the school. We are committed to continuing workshops, community classes, auctions, and gallery exhibitions, as well as all of our other programs.
Many people have asked what they can do to help. The best way that you can help is by taking a class or suggesting to a friend that they take one. If you are a faculty member, donate a work to a summer scholarship auction. Make a gift to the Friends of Arrowmont Annual Fund. We need your financial support now to stay strong as we operate through this crisis, evaluate our options, and to cover the fees and expenses of our planning. The gift you make now will make sure that we are ready to move forward when the time comes.
Thank you for all the care and commitment. We feel your passion for Arrowmont and are deeply moved by your desire to do something. We share your concern that there is no immediate resolution, but please know that we are working diligently to make the very best plan we can for Arrowmont's future. Keep those cards and calls coming. We want to know what you are thinking and answer your questions. We will keep updating the website as new information becomes available.

Business breaks: Hassan cozies up
In her budget proposal on Thursday, Hassan presented the image of a state in which business owners and would-be business owners really wanted to expand, grow and hire people, but were held back by the refusal of the state to help them.
"There are many businesses looking to expand or move to New Hampshire; existing businesses who could use targeted tax credits to develop new products; entrepreneurs who, with just a little guidance, are ready to turn a creative idea into a burgeoning business," she said.
"I have seen these stories throughout New Hampshire, and I know that our business community is ready to lead the way to a more innovative economic future - if their elected officials are ready to stand by them."
It was patent nonsense, but how else could the governor justify subsidizing businesses when she has to raise taxes and sell casino licenses to make ends meet?
The first item on her business agenda was the "targeted tax break" known as the research and development tax credit. The state offers a total of $1 million in chunks of up to $50,000 to manufacturers who invest in research and development. Hassan advocated doubling that to $2 million, and the Senate already has passed a bill to do so.
Manufacturers, of course, will invest in research and product development anyway. And all non-manufacturing businesses, which are the vast majority of New Hampshire businesses, will subsidize that investment.
Hassan proposed spending more on the state's "business incubators," where fledgling entrepreneurs can get guidance and advice. The people are perfectly capable of starting businesses without the guiding hand of the state. In addition, the U.S. Small Business Administration already provides advice through its SCORE program. And some non-profits offer business incubation services.
Hassan also pushed for spending more money on the state's international trade office. This, of course, involves all businesses in the state subsidizing those that engage in international trade.
The least bad part of Hassan's business agenda was her proposal to increase spending on travel and tourism promotion.
Though this also could be done by business associations rather than the state, it is at least arguably broadly beneficial.
The rest of her business agenda involves the state picking favorites in the economy. It was disappointing to see the governor choose to do that instead of spend those scarce resources on core government functions such as courts and public safety.

Kryopigi center and bus stop. Halkidiki, Greece
The village / town of Kryopigi on the Halkidiki peninsula in Greece.
This is the main road that connects all the towns on the eastern part of the Kassandra branch of the Halkidiki peninsula.
The average waiting time for the bus on the station is 30-45 minutes. There is an official timetable online at ktel-chalkidikis.gr.
Kryopigi and its center are higher and further from the beach compared to other Kassandra vilages. This can make the trip from your hotel to the beach a bit more tiresome especially if you are not in one of the hotels near the sea.

Europe is generally agreed to be the birthplace of western culture, including such legendary innovations as the democratic nation-state, football and tomato sauce.
The word Europe comes from the Greek goddess Europa, who was kidnapped by Zeus and plunked down on the island of Crete. Europa gradually changed from referring to mainland Greece until it extended finally to include Norway and Russia.
Don't be confused that Europe is called a continent without looking like an island, the way the other continents do. It's okay. The Ural mountains have steadily been there to divide Europe from Asia for the last 250 million years. Russia technically inhabits "Eurasia".
Europe is presently uniting into one political and economic zone with a common currency called the Euro. The European Union originated in 1993 and is now composed of 27 member states. Its headquarters is in Brussels, Belgium.
Do not confuse the EU with the Council of Europe, which has 47 member states and dates to 1949. These two bodies share the same flag, national anthem, and mission of integrating Europe. The headquarters of the Council are located in Strasbourg, France, and it is most famous for its European Court of Human Rights.
In spite of these two bodies, there is still no single Constitution or set of laws applying to all the countries of Europe. Debate rages over the role of the EU in regards to national sovereignty. As of January 2009, the Lisbon Treaty is the closest thing to a European Constitution, yet it has not been approved by all the EU states.

How Does FM Radio Work?
Sound Waves and Frequency:
- All sound energy is in the form of a wave. The frequency of a wave is the measurement of the number of cycles that it undergoes in a given time frame. Hertz is a measurement of frequency that depicts the number of wave cycles per second. FM signals are measured in megahertz so an FM signal of 97.5 relates to 97,500,000 waves/second
Frequency Modulation:
- FM actually stands for Frequency Modulation. FM signals use various frequency levels that reproduce the sound of the originating source (i.e. music). You've probably noticed that FM contains all your music channels while AM radio is limited to news and talk programming. This is because frequency modulation allows for the transmission of the greater range of frequencies (high and low sounds) contained within music.
- FM radio originates at the broadcast source (radio stations). These stations use large antennas to send out their broadcast signal. Electrical charges are pushed up and down the broadcast antenna at a rate that relates to the carrier frequency. The movement of electrical charges creates an electromagnetic field which sends out
- electromagnetic waves. The waves are sent in all directions. Carrier waves are sent out at a frequency that can be detected by your antenna (the radio station number). They carry sound information that includes the different frequencies of the original broadcast
- The electromagnetic carrier wave travels through the atmosphere until it is picked up by a receiver antenna (i.e. your car radio antenna). At this time the wave causes electrical charges to be pushed up and down your antenna and on into your receiver. The receiver decodes the modulated frequency information and then passes it to the speakers
Processing and Hearing:
- The speaker vibrates according to the processed frequencies and pushes air molecules that recreate the original sound waves and pass them to your ears. You hear the music or talk that was sent in the original broadcast. Since electricity works at the speed of light, this process, from broadcast to listener, is instantaneous
Loss of Signal:
- You've probably noticed, particularly if you listen to FM radio in the car, that eventually you will lose your signal. The simple reason for this is that the short wavelength of FM radio waves cause them to travel in straight lines. The earth, however, is curved. Therefore, as the earth curves, FM waves continue in a straight line into the atmosphere and are no longer receptible. The short waves are also affected by obstacles like mountains
How to Build an FM Radio?
- A radio provides signal transmission via the use of electromagnetic waves. The frequencies a radio uses are lower than those of visible light. A German scientist by the name of Heinrich Hertz was the first to detect and product radio frequencies, in 1888. Radios are still in wide use, even in this internet age.Building a simple FM radio only requires a small amount of time and materials. Although this radio is fully functioning, it isn't very pretty
- Solder the ferrite loop to the variable capacitor. Only solder the ferrite wire that is painted black. Make sure you are soldering the ferrite loop to the center lead of the variable capacitor
- Solder the unpainted wire of the ferrite loop to the variable capacitor's right lead
- Solder the germanium diode to the same right lead of the variable capacitor as the unpainted wire of the ferrite loop. Only connect one end of the germanium diode
- Solder one end of the piezoelectric wire to the other (free) end of the germanium diode
- Solder the other end of the piezoelectric wire to the variable capacitor's center lead
- Take note of the red-painted wire of the ferrite coil. Use an alligator clip to attach it to the antenna wire
- Use the remaining alligator clip lead to attach the green-painted wire of the ferrite coil to a good ground. You can use a cold water pipe for the ground
How To Troubleshoot Portable Satellite Radio:
- Ensure that the radio is connected to a power source or running on full batteries. Before anything else, you need to guarantee that the power cord is properly connected to an electrical socket. If you are using batteries instead of direct electricity from a socket, then this time, you need to ensure the batteries are fully charged. One way of checking if the batteries have enough charge on them is to try the battery in another electrical device
- Turn on the portable satellite radio by pressing on the power button. Once you have double checked that yes, the power cord is connected to an electrical socket or yes, it is running on fully charged batteries, you need to ensure that you also press on the power button to turn the appliance on. The power button would usually be lit up to signify that the device is properly turned on
- Reattach the antenna the antenna if your radio is not able to scan for signals. There are times when you just cannot get a signal no matter how hard you try to adjust the antenna. When this happens, it is always a good choice to completely detach the antenna from the satellite radio and then reattach it back. The reason why you cannot get a signal might also be because you are in a very inaccessible location. If this is the case, simply take the radio to an open area, like the veranda or outside of your garage, and then test if the radio is able to scan for a signal. The case is usually yes, the radio is able to pick up a signal when you take the radio out
- Try not to place the radio near other electrical appliance like computers or televisions. It is also possible that other devices are interfering with the reception of signal. Since you know that this could be a possible reason why your radio is not working, all you need to do is to relocate the radio in another location where the other devices would not impede the reception of the signals
