Dropped on Sunday and no one was there.
Only bad thing was I was guaranteed a 7:30 am pickup but the van didn't get there until 9 am.
I appreciated the fact I could drop the trailer off after hours. I have had previous encounters with the staff at this business & always found them helpful.
I have worked with this drop off place a couple of times and have also rented from them. They have always been pleasant.
I was helped out by the owner himself. He verified I had all the information of the unit and what i needed for return
I reserved 10' van and they had two weeks to get one on site but did not get one and I therefore had to rent a 17' van and the gas mileage indicator did not work so I could maximize gas mileage.
I did not drop off my Uhaul at this location. My paperwork indicated another location and there was confusion when Gellings called me. I was charged extra miles that I should not have been charged since I was not given extra miles for drop off. I had to drive extra 60 miles for drop off and was charged those miles. I do not believe Uhaul should charge their customers extra miles if we have to drive extra miles to the nearest drop off location. This is truly unfair!!
Small equipment failures added to the stress of the move. The door spring on the truck had to be serviced after I picked it up but before I departed my previous location and the pin holding the right ramp on the tow dolly fell out, causing the ramp to slide out and grind while I was driving on the highway. I arrived to my destination without any damage to my property, but once again, the added stress brought me to the decision to use other resources for moving if possible. I realize the failures were merely incidental but paying $500 to have to fix equipment that isn't mine makes me apprehensive to use it again. I would, however, recommend it to a friend if they have no other options. I would certainly recommend this location over the other Uhaul provider in that town.
Very helpful, was just a drop off though. Clean facility, friendly staff. Would recommend to a friend.
Everything went as planned

NASA Releases Glory Taurus XL Launch Failure Report Summary
WASHINGTON, Feb. 20, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- NASA has released a summary report on findings from a panel that investigated the unsuccessful 2011 launch of the agency's Glory spacecraft.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20081007/38461LOGO)
The satellite, designed to improve our understanding of Earth's climate, was lost March 4, 2011, when it failed to reach orbit after launch aboard an Orbital Sciences Corp. Taurus XL rocket from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California.
A mishap investigation board led by Bradley C. Flick, director of the Research and Engineering Directorate at NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center in Edwards, Calif., determined the Taurus launch vehicle's fairing system failed to open fully and caused the mishap. The fairing is a clamshell nosecone that encapsulates the satellite as it travels through the atmosphere.
The mishap investigation board was not able to identify the definitive cause for the fairing system failure, but it did recommend ways to prevent future problems associated with the joint system that makes up the fairing. NASA and Orbital are continuing to investigate the fairing system.
The summary report provides an overview of the mishap investigation board's findings. The board's complete report is not available for public release because it contains information restricted by U.S. International Traffic in Arms Regulations and information proprietary to the companies involved. The summary is available at:

Macroeconomic Analysis of Corruption in Developing Economies
AbstractBased on empirical data, a two-equation game-type corruption reaction function model was developed. A "data to model" approach was used rather than the usual a priori approach. The general hypothesis tested was the "monkey see, monkey do" principle. The latest data on corruption among developing countries was obtained from the Enterprise Surveys done by the World Bank Group in 2010. The key variables were the percent of domestic firms expecting to make informal payment to public officials to "get things done," and the percent of foreign firms doing like wise. The time span is from 2002-2010. A variety of econometric methods were used. In general, the statistical results were quite good and supported the hypothesis. Both reaction equations were positively sloped. Time had a reducing effect on the frequency of domestic corruption, yet it had an increasing effect on foreign corruption. Variations in the frequency of corruption across regions of countries were generally not significant.

5 Tips for Hiring a Good Social Media Manager
Posted on March 29th 2014
It goes nearly without saying that a social media presence is a must for any organization these days. Fact of the matter is that, whether you are present or not, the public is bound to be talking about your products and service – and knowing what they are saying is critical to properly targeting your service improvements, customer service, and tailoring your marketing campaigns. More important yet is being involved in the discussion.
There is an awesome opportunity in social media for organizations to have a direct line of communication to their customers and potential customers, resolving any issues or problems, informing them of upcoming products or exciting news, and – importantly – building a relationship and brand loyalty.
But, the reality is that being involved in social media takes skill, public relations prowess, and quite a bit of time. Not all business owners have what it takes – particularly from the time standpoint – to truly build a solid social media presence. Thankfully, that's what social media managers are there for.
Social media managers become a company's online liaison, interfacing with the public and taking the lead on the company's online presence. From drafting tweets and Facebook posts to responding to social media customer inquiries and comments, a social media manager can be gold to your organization – that said, as with any employee, not all social media managers are created equal.
Tips for Hiring a Good Social Media Manager
Make sure that you bring on the right social media manager for your organization - One who works within your vision, that completes quality work, and who lives with you and your staff. There are numerous criteria for hiring a good social media manager – here are my top five.
1. Make sure they're a good writer
Although your social media manager will write for Twitter and the like – rather than the modern day War and Peace, they still need to be a great writer. Writing for social media is quite different than writing for a press release – the strategy varies and acronyms are often acceptable, for starters – but there still must be a level of quality to the writing.
Make sure that the social media manager that you are considering is able to write in an engaging style and with great communication skills – after all, what's the point of them broadcasting via social media if no one understands the point they are trying to convey?
Before hiring, request candidates to write various versions of a headline for the same story – this test will give you a better idea of their style, ability to be direct and concise, not to mention knack for creative flair.
2. How analytical is their brain?
For your social media manager to have impact, they must work with you to achieve your goals. Make sure that they have a clear understanding of your marketing goals and principals as well as an ability to analyze data and make knowledgeable recommendations based on their analysis. For example, would A/B testing help to learn more about successful posting topics and styles?
In hiring a social media manager, you are looking to hire not just someone who can copy and paste into Facebook or Twitter, but someone who can strategically help your organization to grow by leveraging these media. Being able to analyze metrics and data and to make recommendations that will lead your organization and its presence forward is a huge part of your social media manager's job… after all, a monkey can copy/ paste.
Ask for solid examples of past social media analyses or even have them scan your base analytics reports and let you know what they see at a basic level – doing so will give you a quick read on their capabilities.
3. Do they have experience with the major social media networks?
At a bare minimum, your social media manager must have a solid presence on the big three (Facebook, Twitter, Google+) – they get extra credit for working well on Pinterest, Instagram, and SlideShare. You shouldn't have to pay for a learning curve – their experience will ensure that you don't.
4. Make sure they have established and developed social media accounts and networks
A social media manager without a well-established presence on social media is like McDonald's not offering fries… it's a basic component of their service. Period.
5. Quick learner and highly adaptable
The social media landscape is constantly evolving and at a startling pace. Think about it – just three years ago, no one had even heard of Google+ and very few people had used HootSuite.
These social media assets are now staples and just two of countless examples. A good social media manager needs to be able to quickly adapt to new environments and to stay ahead of the social media curve and what's coming next.

This is quite interesting, because this SlideShare presentation here mentions some very similar stuff for a social media intern.
Shouldn't a manager be able to do more?
Great tips! There's much more to being a social media manager than just posting a quick note on Facebook or Twitter. Hiring someone who is experienced with social media strategies and can create great content for your website is very important.
Great article, I am actually on the other side and looking into taking my skills with social media and becoming a social media manager myself but used your article as a reference as to what businesses should look for in one. I might like to add something, promotions....a very good Social Media Manager must know how to reach new visitors as much as they can to help the business grow and be seen. When it comes to the big ones like Facebook and so on there is a bit of a struggle to get word out there and a good Manager will have to work within the rules and guidelines but be very proactive to reach an audience relevant to the services a company would like to be reached publicly. I run a few personal pages on all the social networks and let me tell you some days you can reach a horde of people and others its a major hassle to reach even one, that Manager needs to have some serious people skills and make sure they are not only running the show on the pages they are working but also be consistant about helping that business grow. Awesome article, bookmarked it as I research how to break into Social Media Management positions myself.

Super Rugby: Bulls forced to re-shuffle loosies & Big Vic returns at No 5
The Vodacom Bulls have made known, through their official Facebook Page, the names of the team to take on the Highlanders on Friday 11 April 2014.
As expected after the injuries to Dewald Potgieter and Deon Stegmann, who both have had to return to South Africa as a result of longer term injuries, Grant Hattingh gets the nod at No 8, with Jono Ross selected at openside flank (No 6) and with Jacques du Plessis at blindside flank (No 7).
Jacques "Vleis" Engelbrecht reverts to the bench.
As we've seen in the opening rounds of this year's competition, Jono Ross struggles to fullfill the role of openside flanker and it might have been far more prudent to include either Wiaan Liebenberg or Wimpie van der Walt in this crucial position, to give the Bulls looseforward combination the vital balance required in the loosies.
Victor Matfield also returns to the starting lineup at No 5 lock, despite initial indications that he is on tour only as lock injury backup. Flip van der Merwe moves to No 4 lock and retains the captaincy, whilst Paul Willemse is relegated to the bench.
Good news for a lot of Bulls supporters is that William Small-Smith is included on the bench as utility back.

Unbalanced loosies for the Bulls again!
I will repeat what I say about Jono Ross, he is NO OPENSIDER!
I am glad Victor Matfield is back and I am also glad William Small-Smith is on the bench.2John Galt on 8 April 2014 at 11:36 SAST
Not convinced about that loose trio. Stegman is a massive loss but surely they could have played a youngster at 6 with Ross at his preferred 8 position?3Gena_ZA on 8 April 2014 at 11:49 SAST
Sorry to say but this takes back to 5 weeks ago and we saw what happened them with Ross at 64nortierd on 8 April 2014 at 11:51 SAST
This team is still good enough to grind out a win against the Landers.
Forwards must just achieve parity, they stood up well in defense against the Canes, Highlanders are more forward orientated, similar to the SA sides.
Hougaard is going to have to put up his hand, Aaron Smith is better than the average nr 9. That reserve scrumhalf of the Bulls must stop making kak when he comes on the field though
Think the Bulls will win this one.5
11:51 @ nortierd:
If history repeats itself, the Bulls will defnately lose this game, they are notoriously poor on tour in the 2nd match on tour.
THe Highlanders also seem to be somewhat of a bogey team for the Bulls in New Zealand for some or other reason… I'm not exactly sure how many times the Bulls have lost against the Landers in New Zealand in recent years, but seem to recall that they always manage to beat the Bulls in New Zealand.
Considering that the Bulls lost their 1st tour game and considering that the Highlanders also lost last weekend, the favourites would have to be the home team, as results in 2014 have gone heavily in favour of the home sides (except this bloody past weekend in SA of course).6nortierd on 8 April 2014 at 12:10 SAST
Conventional wisdom counted for something in previous years, but 2014 has been completely topsy turvy and any "sure thing" games has certainly come back to bite those going for the favorites.
The Force is an example of how to stuff up a SuperBru weekend, and they are not the only side throwing some curve balls.
All I'm saying is that this Bull side is more than good enough to beat the Highlanders.7MacroBull on 8 April 2014 at 12:19 SAST
I back us to win this, with Small smith on the bench its likely hougie will also get a much needed break for 20 odd minutes and not move to the wing and it could be JJ, but then again JJ has also played about every match.
The dangermen will be Asmith, fakitua and b.Smith in the backline, The Lam guy was frikken brilliant for the Canes, We will have to turn it around this week, A.Smith is going to pepper us with high balls, good thing so far that Basson and Visser is slowly gaining some excellent form.
I am also worried about Ross, but his stats have been good this year, but it is up to our forwards to get some ball retention going, guys like flip and paul who will play the second half, we will miss Steggies, but we will really miss Potgieter.
Glad to see JLP is back, he played the last game through some serious pain, but some massaging and acupuncturist will have him ready for Friday.8MacroBull on 8 April 2014 at 12:26 SAST
12:01 @ grootblousmile:
That depends how far they look back at history, 12 years ago we were poor pretty much everywhere even at home. And I know they have this mindset, and Matfield wrote about it in his book how hard this is, but the way these guys can come back every season even in the pre season where everyone tells them how useless they will be all year must count for something.
Home team will obviously be the favorites and they might even give us a hiding, but they will need to be at their best.9nortierd on 8 April 2014 at 12:48 SAST
If you can beat the Sharks this year, you can beat anyone10Best on 8 April 2014 at 18:57 SAST
JJ needs to come to party, his defense has been shocking and distribution/straightening line not much better. Put in Smith and Pollard and shock Highlanders by running at them. Loosies a problem we can't kick away possession 'cause we wont get turnover.11
18:57 @ Best:
I agree with your sentiments regarding JJ Engelbrecht.
He fails at outside centre, mainly due to the fact that he comes out of the defensive lines at the wrong times, and then he fails and / or is unable to defend that channell to the fullest.
Wing suits his style and his defensive vulnerabilities, where he has more time to adapt to the defensive structures.
I also hope Willian Small-Smith gets some time next to Jan Serfontein to show what the pair is capable of in Super Rugby terms.
Bulls would have to seriously consider changing their style of play to a more possession-oriented game, in the absense of Deon Stegmann and Dewald Potgieter. One way of doing it is to play a bit closer around the scrums and breakdown situations, so that non-genuine fetchers like Jono Ross and Grant Hattingh can get to the ball faster and easier.
I would have opted for Wimpie van der Walt or Wiaan Liebenberg in the place of Jono Ross at openside, seeing as those 2 are genuine opensiders, who play towards the ball. One of these 2 would have given the Bulls much better balance in the loosies as a combo.12MacroBull on 8 April 2014 at 19:21 SAST

JJ has had his problems in defense i agree, but against the Hurricanes he was one of our top defenders, what else must he do? No one else would have defended better, I agree his distribution is lacking so far this year.
We can only hope he keeps it up for now.
People are extremely focused on his defense, his tackle completion is 63 out of 66 tackes, while Jan Serfontein has been worse in defense this year (54 out of 64), Johan Goosen has been crap (42 out of 56) even Frans Steyn as not been that great (44 out of 55).13MacroBull on 8 April 2014 at 19:26 SAST
Dont get me wrong, his does jump out of the line, but people tend to focus on this that happens once or twice a game.
The problem is he is not so dangerous this year and probably misses Mornes distribution (yep i said it). JLP will never be that kind of flyhalf, he will always be a warrior thats consistant without being exceptional, and I was happy with that when we signed him, thats what the Bulls needed to get some stability after the nightmare Tjarks game.14
19:26 @ MacroBull:
When a defensive player moves out of the defensive line, eg. Jumping out in front of the defensive line, he inevitably leaves the players on his inside and outside (particularly on his inside – Jan Serfontein) very vulnerable on defence…
Let me explain:
1. There is now an added gap to defend by the suddenly vulnerable defender and there is suddenly more space for the attacker to work with to deceive the vulnerable defender.
2. As that vulnerable defender you have no choice but to concentrate on defence to your ouside shoulder (where that gap has now opened up).
3. Focussing on defence on one side and not a balanced defence left and right, makes it easier for an attacker to step inwards, to pass the vulnerable defender on his inside shoulder, thus creating the impression that the vulnerable defender is indeed weaker and can (and will) be beaten.
So, is the vulnerable defender to blame or is the player who jumps the line to blame?
The answer is easy, the person who jumped the line, caused the weakness in the defensive pattern… therefore he is largely to blame.15MacroBull on 8 April 2014 at 19:52 SAST
@ grootblousmile:
Jan's defensive problems originate because he goes too high in tackles, hougaard suffers from the same problem and they get bounced off, surely this is not JJ's fault?
All I am saying is JJ and Jan has imrpoved every game, probably not fast enough, but even Conrad Smith suffers from these same problems, as well as JDV, who both like to break the defensive line.
I like Small Smith and I cincerely hope he gets gametime this weekend and JJ moves to wing, BUT if JJ gets some attacking rythm going, that the Bulls have been progressively building up to, he and Jan can cause Havoc.16MacroBull on 8 April 2014 at 19:58 SAST
Thus the positives outweigh the negatives, JJ was outside center last year and he was always a threat. As South Africans we tend to overlook the overall gains of a player merely due to their defense, De Wett Barry played 38 test for the boks…because he could tackle and run crash balls? What else could he do?
The bulls forwards needs to get some continuity and not lose the ball every third ruck, then our back line will gain more confidence to play around a bit more and also kick less.17
19:52 @ MacroBull:
I'll have a specific look at how high Jan Serfontein attempts to tackle, but I expect you to look for that "Jumping the line" by JJ and the full ramifiations it has on the defenders around him.
Deal?18MacroBull on 8 April 2014 at 20:13 SAST
@ grootblousmile:
Well I don't deny JJ does it as in post 19:26, i just think people are extremely focused on it, so when it happens, people are like "well there he goes again".
We were told the Aussies and Kiwis are going to run us ragged because JJ is so pathetic, yet it was guys like Alberts, beast etc.19MacroBull on 8 April 2014 at 20:13 SAST
… that miss vital tackles20
20:13 @ MacroBull:
I appreciate and realize that you know that JJ sometimes jumps the defensive line, as you rightly indicated before my previous reply..
I am asking you to have a look at the resultant effects of him jumping the line, leaving others and defence in general vulnerable.
Look, I like JJ Engelbrecht, I just think he is better suited to right wing.
Similarly I do not think Jan Serfontein is faultless…
Let's move the JJ & Jan question aside for a moment…
I think the Bulls have bigger issues, like not selecting a balanced loosie combo, which impacts heavily on the breakdown battle AND like kicking too many balls to the opposition to counter with.21Hondo on 8 April 2014 at 20:25 SAST
Ross is their best Loose forward, he also the Bulls' most intelligent forward
And the Highest scorer too
22MacroBull on 8 April 2014 at 20:26 SAST
@ grootblousmile:
Well that's a pointless debate … We both agree
23MacroBull on 8 April 2014 at 20:27 SAST
@ Hondo:
At 8th man24Bullscot on 9 April 2014 at 10:28 SAST
One thing that we should be very good at is the lineouts with Maestro Matfield back alongside two other locks in that starting line up and really tall flanker in du Plessis, should give us plenty of options front middle and back of lineout both on our own throw and in disrupting the Highlanders lineouts, I guess the trick will be too not make things too complicated and get confusion between the jumpers and thrower and of course Callie Visagie will have to get his throwing in spot on. With this in mind would expect, for at least the first 60 min that we should play to this strength and keep Highlanders penned back deep in their territory with good long kicks OUT TO TOUCH not straight down their throats for them to counterattack with, even if they get possesion back by getting to throw in we should be able to nick some of their lineouts and at these time the ball needs to go through the hands quickly and see if we can run in some tries or get the strong maul going and try breach their line like that.25Bullscot on 9 April 2014 at 10:53 SAST
Also glad to see William Small Smith in the line up, hopefully he gets long enough time on the field to show what he is capable of at this level.26Hondo on 9 April 2014 at 11:27 SAST
@ MacroBull:
I would say at 7 (blind side) too
Stegmann and Potgieter stayed too long on the field, both injury prone, Stegmann has no replacement at the open side in the Bulls squad
The wisdom of letting Stander go was hardly ever debated in Pta, now it's too late27Hondo on 9 April 2014 at 11:38 SAST
@ Bullscot:
Sound like a plan, two concerns though;
1. The reserve hooker is hopeless, keeping him on the field against NZ teams is like handing the match back to them
2. Quick throws ins: all NZ teams practice the counter attack against the Bulls and the Sharks where vulnerability of the back three is well known and Visser cannot cover for both the clown wings, we saw that too28MacroBull on 9 April 2014 at 11:40 SAST
@ Hondo:
Stegmann was on the field for 10 minutes :/
No one denies Stander going was a big loss, but it was also his choice to go.
I hope Mallet picks him for the "world xv".29Best on 9 April 2014 at 11:47 SAST
@ Hondo: Agree with Bullscot, we need to stop giving ball away with deep kicks that NZ/Aus teams can counter attack from. With Matfield back will be better to kick shorter distance but prevent quick throw in. Would also love to see Pollard getting more game time, with our current backline we need a more attacking flyhalf. Stegman is huge loss and combined with Dewalds loss, intelligent enough to provide cover in all three back-row positions, Bulls have real problem.30MacroBull on 9 April 2014 at 11:50 SAST

But we will kick center field, thats just how the Bulls play, this has been their recipe for success for years now and it wont change. The strategy is to kick downfield as far as possible, and trusting the defensive line, I just dont see this changing for the foreseeable future. The key is to try and direct more at space, against the Canes we kicked the ball at a low angle, and it did not work too bad. Winning the ball back without a key player like Stegmann could jeopardize this game plan, but we have seen for years, that as a South African team there is no patience to run from inside our own half, when it is on they will try go for it, if you look at a few well worked tries so far this year.
The Sharks will kick down field, the Bulls will kick downfield… The Cheetahs did that last year, but are trying to be more adventurous again this year (and you see how well that works out) and the Stormers will kick downfield, with the laws regarding the 22 it is not so easy to just go for touch, if the Bulls could they would.31MacroBull on 9 April 2014 at 11:52 SAST
BUT we need to work on our ball retention, if we are going to lose the ball after about every 3 ruck, we might as well just kick.32MacroBull on 9 April 2014 at 11:56 SAST
@ Best:
I would also like Pollard to get more game time and some more flair in our backline.
But come on, it's Bulls rugby, it is absolutely crucial that we (as well as pretty much every other team) needs an 80%+ kicker to be successful, Pollard just does not give us that at this stage.33Best on 9 April 2014 at 13:01 SAST
@ MacroBull: Jacque LP kept us in game against Chiefs with kicks but that reliance was also our downfall. Two seasons ago against Brumbies in semi-final was same story. Bulls leading, rely on kicker to defend lead rather than attack try-line and force opposition into more defensive mode. Dewald was right to keep going for try on that occasion but instruction from coaches allowed Brumbies back into our danger zone. Bulls have bought strong attacking backline and must start using that to make teams re-think their strategy against us. Currently teams will give away the three points if they believe they can return favour with seven. If we up our try scoring percentage when in opposition twenty five we can do with less accurate goal kicker. Also the more Pollard kicks the better his stats will get.34MacroBull on 9 April 2014 at 17:27 SAST

Woha what? I Agree Dewald was doing to right thing, but it was not just to coaching staff that wanted the kick at goal it was ALSO 50 000 people and 14 of his team mates on the field.

I am not knocking Pollard down, I sincerely believe he is a great long term investment, but he kicked most of the currie cup and did not improve, staurday he also missed a sitter.
Above all we need a 80%+ kicker to be successful, this is not a hidden secret in superrugby.
We should not be brainwashed by other supporter about our "conservative, skop en jaag gameplan" and that we should play more attacking rugby.
Everyone else does it, just when we play to our game plan we well, we are unstoppable and we score plenty of tries.

DALLAS — Early voting ends Tuesday for Saturday's election. Four candidates are vying to be the new mayor of Dallas.
We begin our closer look at them starting with David Kunkle, who served as Dallas police chief for six years.
Kunkle, 60, opposes raising property taxes to balance the budget. He says Dallas needs to embrace development of all sizes to spur economic growth.
And Kunkle believes small businesses — along with community involvement — are keys to growth in the city's southern sector.
After spending nearly 40 years in law enforcement and city management in which he ultimately worked for politicians, Kunkle decided less than a year into retirement to become one.
"It's been different than I expected in some ways," he said. "Asking somebody for their vote and money is something that I've never done before."
It's the first time Kunkle has run for office, but not the first time he's run.
Kunkle started running marathons at age 28 and is still going at 60. "I'm one of these crazy people that find a way to run almost every day, and I will run 40, 50, 60 miles a week."
Kunkle said the self-discipline overlaid well to running a big city police department — and for being mayor if he's elected.
"I don't know if it's risk-taking or just something that I think that I can do better than a lot of people and that I am obligated to serve," he said.
Kunkle started serving as a rookie Dallas officer in 1972. At 28, he was the youngest captain in department history.
He went on to become chief in Grand Prairie and Arlington and later served as Arlington deputy city manager.
In retirement from the Dallas chief's job, he lives with Sarah Dodd, a former TV reporter and his fifth wife, in their "M streets" home splashed with Dallas-themed art.
Heading a police department with a command structure is different than being mayor. But Kunkle says he is prepared to listen and lead. "The first goal that I have is to work with the individual Council members," he said.
Kunkle's big issue is to maintain core city services in a tight budget to make neighborhoods as livable as possible.
Regardless whether he wins, he'll keep on running. David Kunkle is already qualified for the New York City Marathon in November.

Chinese appliance maker Haier plans to invest 600 million Thai baht, or about $19 million U.S., to expand manufacturing capacity at its appliance plant in Thailand, according to articles in the Bangkok Post and other media outlets. About $4.5 million would be spend to expand washing machine production and about $2 million would go for expanding refrigerator production. Media sources say washing machine production could double to 400,000 appliances annually. Refrigerator productions could get as high as 1 million units per year.
About $9.5 million would go into product development and about $3 million would go into marketing.
Media sources say the company promoted refrigerator sales in Thailand in 2011 and will focus more marketing efforts on top-load washing machines in 2012.
The plant is in the Prachinburi Province in the Kabin Buri District of Thailand.

Regional policy, convergence and subsidiarity in the European Community
AbstractThe aim of this paper is to shed light on how real income has developed across the member states and regions of the EC and to consider what demands this will place on regional policy. According to the principle of subsidiarity, a necessary, though not a sufficient, condition for EC intervention would be to prove that the scale of regional problems is too great to be handled by member states. Using two concepts of convergence, it can be shown that income convergence across the member states and even across the regions of the EC is the norm. Based on the principle of subsidiarity, policy implications concerning the assignment of a complementary function for redistributive regional policy to the EC tier are derived from the empirical evidence.

Hobbled Bulls bust another Heat streak
Noah, Belinelli will Chicago to Game 7 victory
The pomp and circumstance of a greenroom, commissioner handshakes and donning team hats on NBA draft night can mask the machinations of a harried process.
Marco Belinelli
The Bucks and Rockets suffered big blows to their respective playoff hopes with losses, while the Timberwolves snapped an 11-game slide.
The Bulls moved closer to wrapping up the No. 1 seed in the East, while the Grizzlies clinched their second straight playoff berth.
Lakers 98, at Spurs 84: Andrew Bynum had 16 points and 30 rebounds, the most in an NBA game this season, and Los Angeles didn't need Kobe Bryant to blow out San Antonio.
Chris Paul scored 31 points, lifting the Los Angeles Clippers to a 100-98 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder.
