TUESDAY, July 10 (HealthDay News) -- Continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) and multiple daily injections (MDI) offer similar improvements in glycemic control in adults with type 1 diabetes, while the addition of real-time continuous glucose monitoring (rt-CGM) improves glycemic control compared with MDI or self-monitored blood glucose (SMBG), according to a review published online July 10 in the Annals of Internal Medicine.
Hsin-Chieh Yeh, Ph.D., of Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, and colleagues conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of the literature to investigate how intensive insulin therapy or mode of monitoring affects outcome in children and adults with type 1 or 2 diabetes.
The researchers identified 33 randomized controlled trials that compared insulin therapies. For adults with type 2 diabetes and adults and children with type 1 diabetes, MDI and CSII exhibited similar effects on hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and severe hypoglycemia. For adults with type 1 diabetes, HbA1c decreased more with CSII than MDI, although one study heavily influenced results. Real-time CGM was associated with a 0.26 percent lower HbA1c compared with SMBG, without any increase in severe hypoglycemia episodes. In type 1 diabetes, HbA1c was reduced more with sensor-augmented pump use than with MDI and SMBG (between-group difference of change, −0.68 percent).
"Even though CSII and MDI without rt-CGM have similar effects on HbA1c, the addition of rt-CGM to CSII is superior to MDI/SMBG in lowering HbA1c," the authors write. "Thus, the addition of this monitoring method to SMBG and intensive insulin therapy can assist in achieving glycemic targets in type 1 diabetes."
One author disclosed financial ties to several pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies.

For You on Mother's Day
When you opened your eyes this morning,
God had already seen your day unfold-
He covered each corner of it with His grace...
tucked His love into every moment...
and tenderly wrapped it with
quiet strength your heart would need.
No Text
There is nothing more important
to Him than you-
and I pray He shows you
how special you are
through the blessings
He gives you today.
You are precious to Me and honored, and I love you. Isaiah 43:4 TLB

Checking Identity While in Flight
Is the plane that is contacting the control tower really the one that it claims to be? In order to check this, ONERA and its partners are developing a recognition system based on the use of ambient waves.
What's new
First satellite adaptive flight with the Picard Mission
In January 2014, a new control law, known as adaptive control, was uploaded on board the CNES scientific satellite "Picard" dedicated to studying the sun. This satellite, on a mission beyond its design life expectancy, has lent itself to demonstrate these innovative algorithms. Challenges: improving performance and especially shortening the design time.
The adaptive optics developed by Onera at the core of the search for exoplanets
The new European instrument SPHERE, installed on ESO's Very Large Telescope in Chile, has just delivered the first images, which are of unprecedented accuracy. The core of the system: revolutionary adaptive optics developed by Onera, one of the world leaders in the field.

3/5 rDev -4.8%
This store is one of those 'not many know about it' beer stores and sometimes can have some older Boulevard Smokestack beers that sell quickly at other locations. From what I've been told, it is also the 'sister' to Arena. It has an OK selection of beerbut is worth checking out if you're looking for a beer that may have sold out quickly. Even distribution of beers in coolers vs. on shelves. Again, they have decent selection of Missouri distribution (Bells, Founders, Firestone Walker, Stone, BLVD, Schlafly, Odell's, New Belgium) but not much in terms of Belgian or other European selections. The one disadvantage of Rangeline (at least for me) is that it is on the Northern side of I-70, so it's a little hike to get.

3.3/5 rDev +4.8%
This is yet another sister store to Arena Liquor in Columbia. And like the other sister store, it carries good beers but a whole lot fewer beers. They carry bombers of Rogue, He'Brew, Avery, Aracadia and others that are fairly common in Missouri. They have Schlafly's Reserves (RIS and Barleywine) and Biere de Garde. The sixers range from Bells to New Belgium and more of the usual available in Columbia. Imports are better than most places: Fullers, Young's, Samuel Smith's, Ayinger, Chimay, Delerium, etc. The service worries me a bit. I found an old bottle of Young's Ram Rod but didn't feel the cashier would be of any help if I reported said bottle to him. Prices are pretty good, usually a tab bit lower others. Final thought: Range Line has good selection and is the best beer store in that part of town.

Greek Cypriot negotiator begins talks in Ankara
Thursday, February 27, 2014
ANKARA - The Greek Cypriot negotiator, Andreas Mavroyannis, began talks with Foreign Ministry Undersecretary Feridun Sinirlioglu in Ankara on Thursday as part of the efforts to find a solution to decades-long dispute over the divided island of Cyprus.
Kudret Ozersay, the negotiator from the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC), is expected to meet simultaneously with Greek Foreign Ministry Secretary General Anastassis Mitsialis, in the Greek capital of Athens.
After an almost two-year-long pause, Turkish Cypriot and Greek Cypriot leaders held their first meeting last week, issuing a joint declaration that outlines the way forward for a solution to the crisis that has gripped the island for half a century.
The declaration recommends recognizing the equal status of the two states, while aiming to bring the divided communities closer under a federal government.
The Greek Cypriot administration is a member of the European Union (EU) and recognized internationally, except by Turkey who only recognizes the TRNC.

People in a neighborhood in the Bay County community of Auburn are upset about some dogs living nearby.
They say three unruly pit bulls are allegedly left outside without a leash and they're worried someone is going to get hurt.
As children play in the neighborhood, parents like Julie Decaire and her husband are on the lookout. "I didn't really realize there were dogs there, until the one night they were in my backyard," says Decaire.Neighbors in the area say they've called the Bay County Animal Control but say by the time they arrive, the dogs are back inside. So there isn't much they can do.
Neighbors also say they've even complained to the township supervisor about the pitbull problem. Some have even complained about the condition of the property.
TV5 spoke to the owner of the former Pear Grove Farm Market, which is for sale. He says township officials have been on him to keep the property looking nice. As for the pitbulls, he says he's told the tenants they need to keep the dogs on a leash when they're out. Other than that, his hands are tied.Fortunately there have only been close calls but neighbors hope something is done about the unruly dogs before someone gets hurt.
TV5 put in a call to animal control but were not able to reach anyone.We'll keep you posted.

I guess that I need to switch television providers, since they are going to raise my bill next month, and I am not even getting enough channels for it to be worth the money I am paying now. There is no way that I would be willing to pay even more for the service, and the fact that they are trying to increase my bill is insulting. I am through with them, and I am going to try something else. I think that DirecTV would be pretty cool, but I have never tried to go through them before in my life.
In fact, I have never had any sort of satellite television service before in my life, so if I did choose to go through them, it would be a first for me. I am seriously considering it though, because I like the idea of satellite. Continue reading

APEX Snaps First Close-up of Star Factories in Distant Universe
21 March 2010: For the first time, astronomers have made direct measurements of the size and brightness of regions of star-birth in a very distant galaxy, thanks to a chance discovery with the APEX telescope. The galaxy is so distant, and its light has taken so long to reach us, that we see it as it was 10 billion years ago. A cosmic "gravitational lens" is magnifying the galaxy, giving us a close-up view that would otherwise be impossible. This lucky break reveals a hectic and vigorous star-forming life for galaxies in the early Universe, with stellar nurseries forming one hundred times faster than in more recent galaxies. The research is published online today in the journal Nature.

First Temperate Exoplanet Sized Up
17 March 2010: Combining observations from the CoRoT satellite and the ESO HARPS instrument, astronomers have discovered the first "normal" exoplanet that can be studied in great detail. Designated Corot-9b, the planet regularly passes in front of a star similar to the Sun located 1500 light-years away from Earth towards the constellation of Serpens (the Snake).

Jupiter's Spot Seen Glowing — Scientists Get First Look at Weather Inside the Solar System's Biggest Storm
16 March 2010: New ground-breaking thermal images obtained with ESO's Very Large Telescope and other powerful ground-based telescopes show swirls of warmer air and cooler regions never seen before within Jupiter's Great Red Spot, enabling scientists to make the first detailed interior weather map of the giant storm system linking its temperature, winds, pressure and composition with its colour.

The Cosmic Bat — An Island of Stars in the Making on the Outskirts of Orion
3 March 2010: The delicate nebula NGC 1788, located in a dark and often neglected corner of the Orion constellation, is revealed in a new and finely nuanced image that ESO is releasing today. Although this ghostly cloud is rather isolated from Orion's bright stars, the latter's powerful winds and light have had a strong impact on the nebula, forging its shape and making it home to a multitude of infant suns.

Light, Wind and Fire — Beautiful Image of a Cosmic Sculpture
24 February 2010: Today ESO has released a dramatic new image of NGC 346, the brightest star-forming region in our neighbouring galaxy, the Small Magellanic Cloud, 210 000 light-years away towards the constellation of Tucana (the Toucan). The light, wind and heat given off by massive stars have dispersed the glowing gas within and around this star cluster, forming a surrounding wispy nebular structure that looks like a cobweb. NGC 346, like other beautiful astronomical scenes, is a work in progress, and changes as the aeons pass. As yet more stars form from loose matter in the area, they will ignite, scattering leftover dust and gas, carving out great ripples and altering the face of this lustrous object.

No Place to Hide: Missing Primitive Stars Outside Milky Way Uncovered
17 February 2010: After years of successful concealment, the most primitive stars outside our Milky Way galaxy have finally been unmasked. New observations using ESO's Very Large Telescope have been used to solve an important astrophysical puzzle concerning the oldest stars in our galactic neighbourhood — which is crucial for our understanding of the earliest stars in the Universe.

Orion in a New Light — VISTA exposes high-speed antics of young stars
10 February 2010: The Orion Nebula reveals many of its hidden secrets in a dramatic image taken by ESO's new VISTA survey telescope. The telescope's huge field of view can show the full splendour of the whole nebula and VISTA's infrared vision also allows it to peer deeply into dusty regions that are normally hidden and expose the curious behaviour of the very active young stars buried there.

The Stars behind the Curtain
3 February 2010: ESO is releasing a magnificent VLT image of the giant stellar nursery surrounding NGC 3603, in which stars are continuously being born. Embedded in this scenic nebula is one of the most luminous and most compact clusters of young, massive stars in our Milky Way, which therefore serves as an excellent "local" analogue of very active star-forming regions in other galaxies. The cluster also hosts the most massive star to be "weighed" so far.

Black Hole Hunters Set New Distance Record
27 January 2010: Astronomers using ESO's Very Large Telescope have detected, in another galaxy, a stellar-mass black hole much farther away than any other previously known. With a mass above fifteen times that of the Sun, this is also the second most massive stellar-mass black hole ever found. It is entwined with a star that will soon become a black hole itself.

On the Trail of a Cosmic Cat
20 January 2010: ESO has just released a stunning new image of the vast cloud known as the Cat's Paw Nebula or NGC 6334. This complex region of gas and dust, where numerous massive stars are born, lies near the heart of the Milky Way galaxy, and is heavily obscured by intervening dust clouds.

VLT Captures First Direct Spectrum of an Exoplanet
13 January 2010: By studying a triple planetary system that resembles a scaled-up version of our own Sun's family of planets, astronomers have been able to obtain the first direct spectrum — the "chemical fingerprint" [1] — of a planet orbiting a distant star [2], thus bringing new insights into the planet's formation and composition. The result represents a milestone in the search for life elsewhere in the Universe.

Closing the Loop for ALMA — Three antennas working in unison open new bright year for revolutionary observatory
4 January 2010: The Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) has passed a key milestone crucial for the high quality images that will be the trademark of this revolutionary new tool for astronomy. Astronomers and engineers have, for the first time, successfully linked three of the observatory's antennas at the 5000-metre elevation observing site in northern Chile. Having three antennas observing in unison paves the way for precise images of the cool Universe at unprecedented resolution, by providing the missing link to correct errors that arise when only two antennas are used.

Astronomers Find World with Thick, Inhospitable Atmosphere and an Icy Heart
16 December 2009: Astronomers have discovered the second super-Earth exoplanet [1] for which they have determined the mass and radius, giving vital clues about its structure. It is also the first super-Earth where an atmosphere has been found. The exoplanet, orbiting a small star only 40 light-years away from us, opens up dramatic new perspectives in the quest for habitable worlds. The planet, GJ1214b, has a mass about six times that of Earth and its interior is likely to be mostly made of water ice. Its surface appears to be fairly hot and the planet is surrounded by a thick atmosphere, which makes it inhospitable for life as we know it on Earth.

VISTA: Pioneering New Survey Telescope Starts Work
11 December 2009: A new telescope — VISTA (the Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy) — has just started work at ESO's Paranal Observatory and has made its first release of pictures. VISTA is a survey telescope working at infrared wavelengths and is the world's largest telescope dedicated to mapping the sky. Its large mirror, wide field of view and very sensitive detectors will reveal a completely new view of the southern sky. Spectacular new images of the Flame Nebula, the centre of our Milky Way galaxy and the Fornax Galaxy Cluster show that it is working extremely well.

Brightness Variations of Sun-like Stars: The Mystery Deepens — Astronomers facing Socratic "ignorance"
7 December 2009: An extensive study made with ESO's Very Large Telescope deepens a long-standing mystery in the study of stars similar to the Sun. Unusual year-long variations in the brightness of about one third of all Sun-like stars during the latter stages of their lives still remain unexplained. Over the past few decades, astronomers have offered many possible explanations, but the new, painstaking observations contradict them all and only deepen the mystery. The search for a suitable interpretation is on.

Stellar Family Portrait Takes Imaging Technique to New Extremes
3 December 2009: The young star cluster Trumpler 14 is revealed in another stunning ESO image. The amount of exquisite detail seen in this portrait, which beautifully reveals the life of a large family of stars, is due to the Multi-conjugate Adaptive optics Demonstrator (MAD) on ESO's Very Large Telescope. Never before has such a large patch of sky been imaged using adaptive optics [1], a technique by which astronomers are able to remove most of the atmosphere's blurring effects.

Black Hole Caught Zapping Galaxy into Existence?
30 November 2009: Which come first, the supermassive black holes that frantically devour matter or the enormous galaxies where they reside? A brand new scenario has emerged from a recent set of outstanding observations of a black hole without a home: black holes may be "building" their own host galaxy. This could be the long-sought missing link to understanding why the masses of black holes are larger in galaxies that contain more stars.

Cosmic "Dig" Reveals Vestiges of the Milky Way's Building Blocks
25 November 2009: Peering through the thick dust clouds of our galaxy's "bulge" (the myriads of stars surrounding its centre), and revealing an amazing amount of detail, a team of astronomers has unveiled an unusual mix of stars in the stellar grouping known as Terzan 5. Never observed anywhere in the bulge before, this peculiar "cocktail" of stars suggests that Terzan 5 is in fact one of the bulge's primordial building blocks, most likely the relic of a proto-galaxy that merged with the Milky Way during its very early days.

Watching a Cannibal Galaxy Dine
20 November 2009: A new technique using near-infrared images, obtained with ESO's 3.58-metre New Technology Telescope (NTT), allows astronomers to see through the opaque dust lanes of the giant cannibal galaxy Centaurus A, unveiling its "last meal" in unprecedented detail — a smaller spiral galaxy, currently twisted and warped. This amazing image also shows thousands of star clusters, strewn like glittering gems, churning inside Centaurus A.

Ticking Stellar Time Bomb Identified — Astronomers find prime suspect for a Type Ia supernova
17 November 2009: Using ESO's Very Large Telescope and its ability to obtain images as sharp as if taken from space, astronomers have made the first time-lapse movie of a rather unusual shell ejected by a "vampire star", which in November 2000 underwent an outburst after gulping down part of its companion's matter. This enabled astronomers to determine the distance and intrinsic brightness of the outbursting object. It appears that this double star system is a prime candidate to be one of the long-sought progenitors of the exploding stars known as Type Ia supernovae, critical for studies of dark energy.

In 1906, James McKeen Cattell of Columbia University assembled a list of the 1000 most eminent American scientists of his day and published an analysis of their geographic distribution in the journal Science, including the 40 cities with at least five top scientists. Those cities correspond to 30 metropolitan areas today. Those metropolitan areas were home to 26 percent of 1900 U.S. population but 78 percent of the nation's top scientists. Today, these metropolitan areas account for 24 percent of the U.S. population and 42 percent of U.S.
Regional Inequality and 'The New Geography of Jobs'
August 07, 2012
What explains the wide range of economic growth and prosperity across U.S. regions, and why is it so hard for struggling metro areas to reverse multi-decade trends? These are the questions that urban economist Enrico Moretti addresses in The New Geography of Jobs. In his vision, innovative workers and companies create prosperity that flows broadly, but these gains are mostly metropolitan in scale, meaning that geography substantially determines economic vitality. To start, the book offers a hopeful interpretation of technological change and globalization.

Royal Bank of Scotland Group Plc is plotting a retreat from Ireland after spending 15.3 billion pounds ($26 billion) over the past six years bailing out its operations in the country.
Back in April 2013, the SEC said OK, fine. You can post materially important information about your company on social media as long as you make the public aware that this stuff might wind up there. This was after Netflix Chief Executive Officer Reed Hastings made comments on Facebook about the company's viewership levels, and it created a bit of a buzz.

Vying against one's own self
On this checkerboard-life
No winners no losers
In this endless game
Of lines and squares
Teasing... (Report) Reply
Tirupathi Chandrupatla
World's surface's
A huge checkerboard
Squares separated
By lines
Life may be seen
As a random walk
On the surface.
It's easy to think
Squares as sweet spots
Lines as obstacles
Lines occupy
A smaller area
Walk seems easy
More chance of missing
The obstacles
Some people have
A knack of walking
Without touching
Any of the lines.
What if we think
Lines as desirable
And squares as obstacles?
It's all in our
Thought process
Squares may be
Large or small
Lines closer or farther
This whole checkerboard
Is only an analogy.

God as the 'Prime Mover'? Refuting the Cosmological Argument
The cosmological argument, a classical argument for a 'prime mover', was first advanced by the ancient philosopher Aristotle.

In the future, as Harding sees it, "The cloud will require SSO and user directory/user store synchronization. There is no way to avoid this as every cloud app needs an identity store. Standards are required to make this function seamless (no database cheats in the cloud). Hence the relevance of SAML and SCIM. Each of the major platforms will likely support some derivative of these protocols -- Microsoft being the exception in Azure/Office 365 with their reliance on WS-Federation and Graph."
The first rule of Identity Fight Club
This points at an inherent conflict. When implementing identity solutions, you often run into the edge where Microsoft doesn't support SAML, but instead WS-Federation, a competing standard. Vendors throughout the history of identity in the on-premise space have failed to come up to speed on the latest standards (SAML 1.1 vs. 2.0) or even the same standards (SAML vs. WS-Federation). The consequence is a series of brittle integration points that often require custom software and nearly always complex configuration.
Your sole provider -- or else
To further complicate matters, many of your XaaSes want to be your sole provider. Anil Saldhana, lead JBoss security architect at Red Hat, says, "Most of the cloud providers, such as Salesforce and Google, provide the option of using a customer-hosted identity provider, which can be the sole holder of identity. The cloud providers would act as service providers and you can use SAML attributes to pass roles, etc."
Martin Raepple, product owner for SAP's NetWeaver cloud solution, doesn't believe there will be one major player in the cloud who will be in a role of managing identities centrally. He says, "Any attempts in this direction failed gloriously in the past, including the most prominent example of Microsoft's (.Net) Passport system."
Saldhana agrees: "Reasonably sized companies will not delegate IaaS hosting to another provider. I do not know the success of providing a software stack that enables companies to host their own identity providers. It is not about the technology alone. It is about the directories (Users/Roles/Partners/Customers)."
If Raepple and Saldhana's pessimism holds true, we could be stuck with a lot of point-to-point integration in the cloud.
Hybrid identity
In the near future, we'll probably have a combination of on-premise solutions integrated with the off-premise cloud. According to Raepple, "Many of the security vendors basically offer solutions today that extend the employees' SSO experience from the corporate network into the cloud -- and thereby hold/provision the employee identity into the vendor's cloud-based hub. Customers willing to accept this 'man-in-the-middle' approach will certainly adopt those solutions, but we as a platform also need to support native capabilities for SSO and federation."
This may give Microsoft a home court advantage.
Identity crisis is natural to immaturity
SAML, Oauth, OpenID, and others are still fairly new standards and haven't propagated evenly. In other words, this is still an area of active development in the standards space. Saldhana is involved in those efforts at OASIS. The cloud aspect is still at the use-case identification stage, which is very, very early.
As sure as it rains in Redmond, the cloud is likely to complicate the mess that is identity. It may be difficult to go all-in cloud with identity, due to vendors engaging in their platform reindeer games and the general immaturity of the space. As Saldhana puts it, "It is a kind of wild, wild west in the public cloud space."

Vegan Siu Mai Dumplings
Savory and deceptively simple, these dim-sum bites are a delight!
When chow mein takeout just won't cut it, whip up these traditional open-top dumplings and curb your Chinese-food cravings.
Makes 15 to 20 siu mai
What You Need:
3-1/2 tablespoons vegan butter
1 tablespoon ginger, grated
2 cups faux chicken, defrosted
1/2 cup shiitake mushrooms, sliced thinly
2 tablespoons tamari
1 tablespoon five-spice powder
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
2 cups shredded cabbage
1 cup shredded carrot
1 package of wonton skins
1/4 cup cooked peas
What You Do:
- In a large skillet, heat margarine. Once it sizzles, add ginger and cook for one minute. Add faux chicken and mushrooms and cook for five minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in tamari and five-spice powder and cook for 3 minutes before adding hoisin sauce. Add cabbage and carrots and cook 5 more minutes.
- Make a circle with your forefinger and thumb. Place dumpling wrapper over your hand and then place a heaping teaspoon of filling in center. Fold up sides of the dumpling, creating a little cup. Dot the middle of each dumpling with a pea for garnish.
- Fill a large saucepan 1/4-full with water, place over high heat, and bring to a boil. Use a metal colander over the pot or bamboo steamer lined with wax paper, and steam buns for about 15 minutes.

My clever co-writing colleague Trevor Cook has entered a new phase of his career/life.
After many years at the top he has decided to hang up his JWM pistol and stop to smell the roses.
There are no doubt many of us who are intrigued as to what the big man will do next, but in private correspondence he has assured me that he will be blogging more fervently than ever! Yeah!!!
Trevor has already re-jigged his blog to remove JWM signage and with the election only four weeks away I expect to see a massive amount of political thinking and blogging as he swings in the backyard hammock and muses on the shenanigans of our Aussie pollies.
Of course, I realise that his move from JWM has been carefully crafted to time with my encroachment upon his subscriber numbers. He has no doubt been scared and thus left JWM in order to out-post me and therefore pull away in the race.
But little does he realise my own cunning reply: I have engaged a crack team of hobgoblins to write up a storm of articles for me, so that I can out-post him in return. Ha, ha, verily ha! Take that!
Wishing you the very best and a well-earned rest, my friend!

New name for controversial Healdsburg wine shop
By CLARK MASON
A Healdsburg wine shop has a new name to replace "The Serial Grapist" that some found in poor taste.
Stephen Moore held a contest to rename his new wine shop and tasting room after complaints that the Serial Grapist pun made light of sexual assault.
Henceforth his shop on Center Street, a block from the Healdsburg Plaza, will be known as "Wicked Wines."
Moore said he received about 70 entries and it was one of his regular customers who offered the new name and will get a $100 gift certificate for use in the wine shop.
"I really liked the double alliteration and I think two 'W's are good for graphic artists to work with," Moore said.
He also said "wicked" is a widely used expression in his native Massachusetts. "It gives a nod to where I'm from," he said.
Wicked Wines edged out a number other finalists including "Planet of the Grapes," "Grape Escape" and "Grape Expectations."
5 Comments for "New name for controversial Healdsburg wine shop"
The name was in no way "controversial.' What the issue really was called is; 'SENSATIVITY OVERLOAD,' by the WHINERS who always look for something to complain about that has absolutely no relevance with anything but their own inabilities to say and do what they feel. And even then, those individuals who do whine and complain, create free advertising for the businesses they 'think' they're hurting.
So who are the REAL losers, the WHINERS & COMPLAINERS! LOL, LOL, LOL!!!
You must be male
@rukidding, what does my gender have anything to do with my comments? Alas, but I do know from your "reply." If you're referring to the inference, and similarity of the word "Grapist" to 'rapist,' then your reply has let it be known that you are a female, and very sensitive to this 'word' only. You might have issues, and maybe an unfortunate incident in your past that this word triggers. For that I'm extremely sorry, but it's just a word, and it won't change your past history, only you can by getting professional help, and meaning no disrespect either.
This is the Internet, and that was only the name of a business that had not intentionally meant to infer anything with the original name that some found offensive in their own minds only. And it becomes sad when a select few in a free society must, and dictates how a free entrepreneurship does things to make a living in todays poor economy.
So I now say; do you want some cheese with your WHINE?
But seriously 'rukidding,' get some help please, before you lose all perspective and the past takes control of you completely. Life is way too short to ponder on the negative ; – )
there is no "G" in RAPE!

Energy giant giving military vets priority
Federal Veterans Affairs Minister Julian Fantino speaks in Calgary on Wednesday, Sept. 11, 2013 at an announcement that Cenovus Energy will give military veterans priority when hiring employees. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Bill Graveland
CALGARY - One of Canada's energy giants will make military veterans a priority when hiring new employees.
Federal Veterans Affairs Minister Julian Fantino took part in an announcement Wednesday that Cenovus Energy Inc. (TSX:CVE) has joined a program which was announced last fall as part of a government veterans transition plan.
"Cenovus Energy is giving veterans new and interesting opportunities to make a successful transition from military to civilian life," said Fantino.
"The type of training that veterans receive, it's regimented, it's geared in many different areas ... and things are very well structured," he said.
"Very often transitioning into a different kind of environment in civilian life can be challenging."
Jim Grecco spent 27 years in the Canadian Air Force before retiring in 2000. He's now the military liaison manager with Cenovus.
"When you get outside the military and you come into industry, you find that there are a lot of things that the military has taught you: communications, problem-solving, leadership," Grecco said.
"Those things are applicable anywhere in this country — whether in uniform or out of uniform — and a lot of military people don't recognize that."
Cenovus plans to inform veteran affairs groups of job opportunities, so those looking for work are aware of openings.
"If we have equally qualified candidates for the same role, we will offer the role to the veteran," said Jacqui McGillivray, senior vice-president at Cenovus.
"We've been actively working with the Canadian military ... on opportunities to hire because the quality of individuals from the Canadian Armed Forces is exceptional — the leadership, technical expertise, the experience. They bring great skills into an organization."
Cenovus is a leading Canadian oil company which employs about 5,000 people. Its operations include oilsands projects in northern Alberta and natural gas and oil production in Alberta and Saskatchewan.
It's the first energy and utility company to participate in the job creation initiative. Toronto's Hospital for Sick Children was the last organization to sign onto the program a few months ago.
Fantino said support for the program is growing.
"Certainly the private sector recognizes more and more the value, the skill sets, the discipline ... and the kind of opportunities that are inherent to the training and experience the veterans have had," Fantino said.

text: Creating the Perfect Facebook Fan Page Unless you've been living in a cave for the last few years, you probably have heard of Facebook's Fan Pages and how major corporations have been using them widely to improve their public image and provide an interactive front for their operations. You may not have realized, however, that these Pages can be used equally as effectively by just about any business or entrepreneur, including you. But, what makes a good fan page? How should it be formatted and what can it provide that varies from other fan pages enough to stand out in the marketplace? The Goal of a Fan Page The first thing you should know is that the Facebook Fan page is a different beast from the profile you've had since you were in college. A profile, while interesting and useful for engaging with people on a personal basis, has many limits. First, you can only have 5,000 friends at any given time. That may seem like a lot, but if you are successful in your endeavours, that number will skyrocket fast. Groups and Pages don't have such limits. Second, you can integrate your Page directly into a website with a like button. You can also use Facebook Insights to track actions taken on your Page. This allows you to see when people click on links, or simply just read your page. Tie it all together with direct integration with Facebook's advertising wing and you can easily pay for PPC or PPM ads that will build your Fan count directly to the Page. It's a pretty sweet deal if you use it properly. How a Good Fan Page Should Look But, at the end of the day, a good Page needs to be well produced and provide valuable information if you want it to surpass that magic 5,000 mark and start generating real traffic that can convert to income on your website. Here are some things to keep in mind: Value Added Content Works – Value sells your brand, so focus on ways to generate that value with notes, videos, or links that are useful to your fans. Integrate with a Blog – Maintain a blog and integrate the content you develop for your Facebook page directly with that blog whenever possible. It's Not a Sales Page – A good sales page should be further down the funnel. A Facebook Page is an interactive forum where you build your brand and develop trust. Later, you can cash that trust in for sales, not now. Provide Discussion Points – Don't just wait for people to show up and ask questions. Post questions on your feed, create a message board and draw people into conversations. Interact with Fans Regularly – Get on their and ask questions, answer questions and leave comments about other people's content on a regular basis. Use Twitter for Speedy Discussions - Twitter is a good supplement to Facebook, providing you with an instant way to reach people with short, 140 character tweets. Integrate it with Facebook to hit both audiences at once. Facebook Fan Pages are a powerful tool that will allow you to generate traffic, build trust, and grow your business efforts immensely without spending a ton of money. Use them wisely and your audience will soon start to help you in ways you never thought of to build your business.
