September 11 Digital Archive: XML Document
There's a pounding at my door, then the door is thrown open. It's early. I'm jarred out of sleep and told we're under attack. The only attacks I can think of are the regularly scheduled ant raids on the honey pot or peanut butter jar. Did I have to be awaken for that? Christ, blast the little grease ant bastards with a steady stream of Raidtm. But it wasn't grease ants and had nothing to do with my kitchen. It was New York- World Trade Center, Washington- Pentagon and Pennsylvania- the woods. It was passenger jets. I saw they had blown apart the World Trade Center by, essentially, throwing over a hundred people at it. Those planes smashed into the towers over and over again. Then, the buildings collapse again and again. The less squeamish Mexican station Telemundo shows people jumping out of windows, falling, banging repeatedly against the sides of the trade center as they plummet. Politicians go on TV saying things like "swift retaliation" and "act of war." This is just the beginning.
Callers to talk radio shows go through a series of pro-American posturing and then scream about nukes, Afghanistan, Iraq and god knows what. The people that aren't screaming for war don't seem to know what to say. They have the images of Palestinians cheering in the streets. An old lady in rags ululating. Children singing and smiling and jumping up and down in joy. What have these people taught their children? What have they twisted into their own souls? These are people who believe good punishments for women and girls who disobey, show interest in sex, go to school, work or leave their homes without a male relative is imprisonment, torture or death. If these recent terrorist attacks do nothing more than give us an excuse to occupy Afghanistan, after unfortunately blasting it to shit (as if it's better than shit right now), and stop these horrible violations of human rights then I'll go along with the war mongering idiots. I hate to speak for the women of Afghanistan, but really, they'd be better off dead under piles of rubble than living under the rule of the Taliban (controller of 90% of Afghanistan) who despises them solely for their genitalia. I'd happily shoot any male member of the Taliban, preferably after raping him with the muzzle of a double barrel shot gun, and this has nothing to do with our airplanes or big tall shiny buildings. It has to due with my desire to violently violate the human rights of anybody who enforces a system of codified violent human rights violations. It's illegal for women to go to school, get an education and follow it up with getting a job. This makes them nothing more than baby producing slaves one hundred percent dependent on men. The sad thing is the Taliban isn't confined to Afghanistan. Their members saturate the populations of the Middle East, and evidently some of them live here in America. The Taliban is to the Muslim religion what the KKK is to Christianity. And speaking of Christianity, what was President Dips**t doing quoting from the book of Psalms during his oh-so inspiring five minute plunge into mispronunciation? Is this some sort of g.d. Holy War he thinks we're going into? Kill an Arab for Jesus? God bless you. God bless you straight to hell you filthy Mohammed lovin' heathens!
I'd appreciate it if god was left out of all this. Their were people of many religions, philosophies and beliefs killed yesterday; let's keep that in mind.

Notes from the President
by Estelle Shane
As President of IAPSP, I'm pleased to be writing my second annual report concerning our progress. I want to stress in particular how much we've accomplished in strengthening IAPSP as a vibrant and viable democratic membership organization, and to share some of the work in progress by describing the activity of one part of our governance. It is in our committees and other governing groups that the vitality and growth of our organization resides and, therefore, we depend upon the active participations of the membership. I hope that by describing the activities of one of the governing groups in IAPSP you'll be inspired to join us. Consider what interests you, and then get in touch with the committee chair, who will welcome your participation.
I'll begin with our efforts to create an atmosphere of greater coherence and cohesiveness in the organization. This year, the Advisory Board of IAPSP, comprised of the chairs of each working committee and the members of the Executive Committee, initiated a policy of holding regular meetings. Three times a year, all twenty members of this Board convene through teleconference and, in this way, share the substance of their work, the decisions that they face, and, then, collectively shape a unified direction for IAPSP.
Issues important to the future of IAPSP were addressed and vigorously debated during their most recent teleconference this past February. Some of these issues included:
- · efforts to reorganize the International Council of IAPSP: Should Council members be elected to represent a single geographic region, or to represent the organization at large? Should the Officers of IAPSP be elected by the Council, or by the membership at large? What is the optimal size of the Council, the body in which governance of our organization reside?
- · plans to organize our first international conference, leading us in the direction of Turkey in 2010;
- · creation of a greatly enhanced website, establishing a vehicle of communication and connection that members might visit regularly;
- · consideration of a new designation for the formerly named "newsletter," reflecting its focus as much wider than IAPSP news, but, rather, its essence as a vehicle for current comment and analysis of issues facing all of us in contemporary practice. In addition, the Board took up the issue of a more effective, active means of distribution for the now re-named eForum than its current passive annual posting on the website. It was decided to feature a single article by emailing that article to each member, an effort to call attention to the excellence of the totality of articles that make up each issue;
- · development of a process to create formal affiliates of IAPSP, a need that came from individuals and organized small groups seeking to achieve greater connection with self psychology; and
- · maintenance of the welcoming committee that has so successfully introduced new participants to our conferences.
These are just a few of the important changes taking place in IAPSP through the work of members of its numerous committees. I urge your participation.
Finally, in this year of difficult economic and social times, I hope that my brief overview of the work of one working group communicates to you, our members, the degree to which IAPSP has discovered new strength and renewed vitality. Though self psychology has been an established psychoanalytic theory for more than thirty years, our membership organization is only in its fifth year of operation. Through our committees, the Advisory Board, the Executive Committee and the International Council, we are actively creating the structure and direction of our membership organization to best promote self psychology as a developing profession and a living science.
I look forward to seeing you all in Chicago for our next conference!

This past week stocks received
most of their lift from positive or better than expected earnings announcements
and their downward movement from broker downgrades. While it was good to hear
Apple beat estimates, it was more concerning to see Wells Fargo downgraded due
to accelerating loan losses. This is especially concerning as the bulk of this
years growth is due to signs of a recovering economy, anything indicating
otherwise at this point is extremely troublesome.

Ford Motor Company and its ACH subsidiary has agreed to sell a former Visteon lighting plant in Sandusky, Ohio to Ventra Sandusky, a member of the Flex|N|Gate group by the end of June. Ventra Sandusky also will run the ACH automotive lighting service parts operation in Bellevue, Ohio. Earlier this month ACH said it would sell its interior trim business to Faurecia, the world's sixth-largest automotive supplier.
After this sale, ACH or Automotive Components Holdings will have only one remaining operation – the climate control business at its Sheldon Road plant in Plymouth Township, Mich. ACH was formed by Ford in 2005 to sell or close 23 former Visteon plants.
"The Sandusky lighting acquisition strengthens our competencies in vehicle lighting systems and supports our global commitment to Ford Motor Company," said Flex|N|Gate Chairman Shahid Khan.
Ventra Sandusky said it would offer employment to most Sandusky and Bellevue employees.

Re: Multi-language broke when SS upgraded
13 June 2009 at 7:26am
I have a similar problem. I have a site that is in English and French. I've recently upgraded from 2.3.0-RC2 to 2.3.2-RC2. I followed the instructions and ran the Migration script at the end of the upgrade. Admin works fine, and the English version of the site is intact. However...
I can see that within the database that all the SiteTree_lang tables have been obsoleted and I can no longer use the ?lang=<lang> to access the translated fields. No problem, I can set the locale and change the code to use ?locale=<locale> ( ?locale=fr_CA ). But the translated site no longer exists in the cms. In the database I can see that the fields are still there so my content isn't entirely missing. How do I reconnect all the French fields ( <field>_fr ) back into the cms? Is there a tanslatable table to map the FR locale back to those orphaned fields?
thanks in advance!

YAHOO.COM - An invading force is laying the groundwork for a coup in the United States this year, and it's going on right under our noses. The brown marmorated stink bug, an insect species from Asia that has been steadily expanding its range since it landed on the East Coast 15 years ago, will begin to sneak into the homes of unprepared Americans by the hundreds in the coming weeks, entomologists say.
And because of an unusual late-season surge in the invasive pest's numbers, scientists and crop specialists worry that the bug could make one of its strongest showings ever when it comes out of hiding in the spring.
"We've seen increases in populations over the last month or so," said Tracy Leskey, a research entomologist with the U.S. Department of Agriculture. "This is something that's different than in 2011." click here to read more

Larissa Brewster fundraising for Running for Cover - 2013 Boston Marathon
Larissa Brewster fundraising for THE MELANOMA FOUNDATION OF NEW ENGLAND INC
Team Running for Cover is running the 2013 Boston Marathon to raise funds to support MFNE's mission of education, prevention and support.
Since it's inception in 2006, Running for Cover has raised over $1 million to support MFNE. I am thirlled to be a part of this team for the 2013 Boston Marathon.
Help me cross the finish line by donating to my fundraising efforts. Together we can help reduce the incidents of Melanoma in the New England area.
I want to make a difference by increasing awareness of melanoma. I first became aware of this vicious disease when I started lifeguarding for the Town of Barnstable in 2006. Not only did we lose a guard to the melanoma, I have also been more closely affected by the disease within my own family. The worst part about melanoma is how easily its danger can be mitigated through awareness and taking the proper precautions. Since my first introduction to melanoma I have preached sun safety to anyone who will listen. Anyone who knows me knows how much I love the sun, but I make sure to wear sun block and tell others to do the same in order to protect my skin. Help me continue to spread awareness of melanoma by donating to the Running for Cover charity!

Interesting article posted by ESPN's Page 2.
Being a Cardinal fan, I agree with the writer's pick. That ump is HATED by St Louis. I'm curious to see if others agree with the choices made here.
As a Yankee fan, I can say that Curt Schilling is certainly hated, but he also garners a lot of respect for his character and guts. I hate Manny Ramirez much more cause he is so lazy. I hate Pedro more because he's such a whiner. Not sure if I agree with Schilling being enemy #1.

trench coat mafia
Trench coats remind me of high school. At Camrose Composite High, we called the group of ne'er-do-wells who smoked at the back of the school the Trench Coat Mafia. I'm pretty sure I never wore a trench coat in high school just to avoid being teased.
And yet, the trench coat is now an essential component to my wardrobe, so I can only conclude it is length, color and proximity to smuggled cigarettes and beer that makes this iconic coat creepy. A trench at mid length and in khaki paired with birds and colored pants? Completely cute!

Zara has so many great treasures, like your PURSE! I'm obsessed. Trench coats are going to be so necessary this spring with all our coloured denim! SPeaking of which, love your yellow pants
Love this entire look!!
LOVE those jeans!I can't get enough of coloured denim! It is so fun and versatile! That purse is beautiful too!
<3 Kastles
@Jas, Thanks lady! I was stoked to finally find a bird blouse!
@Alicia I'm OBSESSED with Zara, I have a problem. I originally wanted the Coach Willis bag but thought this was a good substitute and $300 less. YES I'm so pumped to wear colored jeans and trench coats daily!
@Petite Fashions thanks so much dear!
@Kastles Thanks doll! I can't help myself when it comes to colored denim! I want a pair in every color. Just picked myself up a pair in pink from h&m. Next, mint green, rose pink, peach, the list goes on.
I also love the blouse! I saw one like that today, now I wish I bought it!
@Courtney You should go back and get it! It goes with everything!

"Ecosystem services" is an exciting new buzz term in conservation — valuing nature for what it gives us. But when for-profit groups start privatizing nature, what happens to the poor?

I work on the ecosystem services team at The Nature Conservancy, which strives to find ways to protect and strengthen the services that nature provides that are crucial to human well-being while also protecting biodiversity.

A recent Huff Post item caught my…and apparently several other folks'…attention. The gist of the article was that a public relations practitioner was overheard in spirited conversation with senior representatives of an industry represented by her firm as she shared how she used "insider knowledge" from previous work experience to increase her firm's chances of getting positive results from efforts on behalf of clients at her current place of employment.
(Note: I word this introduction this way because of the situation's applicability to a host of situations…not just this particular instance.)

text: The Coastal Bend Bays and Estuaries Program is a model of cooperation, according to the acting assistant administrator for water for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.Nancy Stoner is her name, and she was in Corpus Christi Monday to review a marsh restoration project along the Nueces Bay Causeway.The water division of the EPA oversees bays and estuaries programs throughout the country, and Monday's visit was just an inspection of ongoing projects.Stoner was at the sight of a 160-acre marsh restoration project along the causeway, where contractors and volunteers have been planting marsh grass. The grasses help keep the berms dredged and the bay bottom from eroding away.Stoner said that because of tight budgets, the list of 28 bays and estuaries programs have been shrinking. She said the Coastal Bend is an exceptional example of cooperation."Taking every dollar and making it go really far by getting the universities involved, the counties involved, local partners involved," Stoner said. "It's just a great benefit to the community."The project itself is in the final phase. A recent aerial photo of the area just north of the causeway shows the noodle-like berms that were redeposited from the bay bottom.The senior project manager for the restoration effort said the marshland was eroded after the causeway was built, but since the project began, marine biologists are already seeing a change, with a return of several species of fish and birds."Just feeding on the little shrimp that are just foraging around in the marsh grass that we planted. A lot of birds are coming out here as well," said Rosario Martinez of Coastal Bend Bays and Estuaries. "A lot of the terraces are still bare, so we're getting a lot of ground nesters coming out. Just helping out. We've seen a lot of fishermen come out here as well, fishing. We've see kayakers come out here."The next step in the almost $5 million project will be placing rock along the outer berms to help control wave and wind erosion. The project is funded entirely from state and federal grants.Martinez said that after the rock is spread, they will be revamping the boat launch at Indian Point on the north side of the causeway.

Drilling and tapping a main (14 Posts)

Drilling and tapping a mainI need to drill and tap a 1 ½" main to put in a vent; there are no plugs, no T's, nothing, and old rusty pipe.
My question is, how small a hole can I drill and tap and still get decent venting? I ask because I've read that a Gorton D, at 1/8" (or ¼" straight), vents as much as a Gorton 1, with a ½" connection. Is that accurate? Is it all the orifice size? If so, why have such large connections?
If I can tap for ¼" I can get 18 threads per inch, or 27 threads per inch at 1/8"; given that the 1 ½" main is somewhere around 3/16 to .20 inches thick, but is curved, I could get at least 3 threads cut for a ¼" tapping, and maybe 5 for a 1/8" tapping. I would do the latter if I trusted that I would get adequate venting.

A 1/8" pipe . . .has the capacity of more than 3 Gorton #1's (1.2 cfm vs 0.33 for a Gorton #1 or D). This info comes from the Gill & Pajek venting capacity chart that is sold on this site.

No fittings?I'm having trouble imagining this. What's at the end of the pipe? I know the pros do this kind of thing occasionally, but getting a drill into the top of a steam main, dead center and perpendicular, is no mean feat. And the best you can hope for is almost 4 threads @ 27 threads/inch because 1 1/2" schedule 40 pipe is only .145" thick, and we don't know how much of that is rust. I'd be looking for a fitting.1983(?) Peerless G-561-W-S

fittingsThe end of the pipe has a T for a takeoff to an elbow w/ riser for a first floor radiator; the rest goes to an elbow into a pipe leading to the dry return. Even if it was all brand new, it seems to me you would have to disassemble the system from the radiator backwards, since everything is screwed into something else. And it's not new--the building is 110 years old and maybe the system too.
I don't see why you would need to drill dead center into the top of the main. I was thinking at 45 degrees off vertical or maybe close to 90. It would drain any water, and with a couple of elbows you can make any angle vertical for a nipple and vent.

I didn't mean top dead center.By dead center, I mean perpendicular to a chord of the circle, if you know what I mean by that. The drill also needs to be perpendicular to the long axis of the pipe. It's not easy to get both dimensions right.
Do you have a good source for 1/8" elbows? I discovered that my local Sears Hardware has an amazing selection of small (1/8" to 3/4") brass nipples and fittings at very reasonable prices. The ones I've found at the big box stores tend to be machined rather than cast, and they much more expensive.1983(?) Peerless G-561-W-S

Adding ventsProper way to add vents to a main:

you could also welda thread-o-let onto a hole in the pipe and have a full size tapping that you could then do whatever you wish with. Its actually the best solution as it would let you add four or five gorton #2 main vents to the main on a manifold.Serving Cleveland's eastern suburbs from Cleveland Heights down to Cuyahoga Falls.

thanks Gordoit was the first time i struck an arc in 24 years..i sent the picture to my buddy who was a senior chief in the navy who specialized in weld inspections..he tore it up but we laughed in the process..i knew he would, and i knew i no longer had 'navy' quality skills..but hey i was at least still able to do it..actually it was your prior thread response that prompted me to get a baby weld machine and get back into it, so thanks!!Serving Cleveland's eastern suburbs from Cleveland Heights down to Cuyahoga Falls.

threadoletThanks for the suggestion, Gerry. Is the bottom of it curved to match the curvature of the pipe, or does it sit in a larger hole prior to welding? Also, the hole looks threaded--is that an optical illusion or did you try that first?

The thread-o-letis curved to match the pipes contour and is also beveled in so that there is a groove for the weld..The hole was drilled with a Lennox step drill which makes a little bit of an illusion that there is a thread there..its just a hole..and a sharp step drill went thru the pipe like butter.Serving Cleveland's eastern suburbs from Cleveland Heights down to Cuyahoga Falls.

Admirals and ChiefsThe smart Admirals know that it is the Chiefs that really run the Navy!
It takes a real SOB ( esp. busting someone's chops about their welding). I sleep better at night knowing they're out there.
I once told a retired Chief what pressures I run my boilers at.
He grumped at me and said, "That ain't Real Steam. Tha's just a frackin' LEAK!"
"Well, Chief, my job's easy. I only have to heat the building, not make it move."
So here's to heating buildings with LEAKS! (-and making sure buildings DON'T move).

oh, thats to funny!I got tears in my eyes from laughing.. i can just see that in my head..we didn't even take steam seriously till the line fed something that needed steam over a 150 psi..we ran the boilers at 1275 psi, so the new guy fixed the 150 and under pipes..we figured no one would get hurt on a 150 line..all perspective i guess..thats funny tho..i called an admiral 'skipper' once...ah yes, in the dog house...nothing like memories!Serving Cleveland's eastern suburbs from Cleveland Heights down to Cuyahoga Falls.

Happy birthday to Apple's Mac, which debuted thirty years ago today. According to Yahoo News:
San Francisco (AFP) - Decades before changing the world with iPhones and iPads, Apple transformed home computing with the Macintosh.
The friendly desktop machine referred to as the "Mac" and, importantly, the ability to control it by clicking on icons with a "mouse," opened computing to non-geeks in much the way that touchscreens later allowed almost anyone get instantly comfortable with smartphones or tablets.

This has now become a real possibity in light of how well Towson is playing, along with how poorly the Terps are playing.
If they lose to Towson, it would see to be almost impossible to then go and beat a hot Georgia Tech team and their devastating offense at Tech. So then the Terps would be 1-4 with a bunch of tough teams yet teams to play.
If Edsall puts up a 1-11 or 2-10 or even a 3-9 season is he guaranteed to come back for at least another year? Remember the Terps are coming off a 9 win season with a blow out bowl victory and returning a supposedly ACC player of the year caliber QB.

If you listen to pundits, there are a million different rules for the ideal resume. There are those that advocate for a one-page resume. And a max two page resume. Format the resume this way. That way. Do a functional resume. No, do a chronological resume. I've tried all of them. And as a hiring manager, I've read all of them. Honestly? Most resumes are just crap. Terrible. Picking from all these awful resumes leaves the person reviewing them frustrated because the resumes don't reflect what the person needs to say yes to asking you to interview.
That's the problem. Everyone has their favorite way to tell you how to do your resume. Very few show you how to make your resume attractive enough to get the interview.
That's all the resume does, you know. Get you the first interview. The resume does not get you a face-to-face interview. The resume doesn't get you a job offer. Nope. All the resume does is get you that first, usually phone, interview. Not a small thing, mind you. I always thought if I could get that very first interview, I could get the job. The problem is getting the first interview.
When you've read all the resumes I have and see one awful resume after another, do you know what happens when a resume comes along that speaks to the job the right way? That person reading the resume actually gets excited. You know, because this jewel of a resume suddenly shows itself after seeing all this crappy stuff. Who wouldn't get excited reading a great resume?
Seeing that really good resume is rare though. Exceedingly rare. What if that fabulous resume was yours and the person reading the resume getting all excited would now want to interview you?
From a purely competitive viewpoint in getting the job, that diamond in the rough of a resume just gave you a huge advantage over everyone else in that electronic resume pile — you've got the best shot at getting an interview. Resume success!
Instead of dealing with all of the shotgun approaches to writing the resume, I look at your resume from the viewpoint of deciding if there is enough in the resume for me to want to interview you for a job. Not hire you for the job. But interview you. One miracle at a time, I say. Get the interview.
Getting the interview means that now all of your job interviewing skills come into play. You may not be very good at those interviewing skills and you may not get the job. But if you don't even get the opportunity to interview, none of that matters. Resumes are about getting interviews so that you have a chance to get the job.
Here's what I've seen when I've reviewed resumes
With all of the resumes I've read and for the ones that I've reviewed for this service, it's clear there are three big problems with the written resumes:
The resume formats don't address what hiring people want to see. It's obvious the resume is just all over the place in terms of what is written and presented for the job. Without the right focus for the resume, the probability of an interview just drops.
Most people don't know what really works to get the interview. Not getting the job. Just the interview. Not only does this come from some types of resume formats, but people don't really know what to put in the resume to make it the jewel the decision-maker wants to read.
With no feedback from job applications, people are frustrated because they have no clue what is causing them not to get the interview. Frustrating, frustrating and more frustrating. Even if a person thinks it is their resume causing the problem, they don't know what to change to make it more attractive to get the interview.
The kicker? People know they can do the job in the job description. They just don't know how to show they can do the job in the resume.
That's where I can help you.
Here's what I've got for you
For your resume review, here is what you get:
- A specific written review of your entire resume. For the ones I've done, it's usually around ten pages of text like this. It takes a lot of time to really do a good review and I take the time. I don't write your resume for you — many hundreds, if not thousands of dollars get charged for that — but critique each section of your resume. Your contact information. Your objective statement. Your job skills. Your business results. What is written for each position. Your education and certifications, if you have them. Most people can write the resume; it's a question of what to include in the writing that is the key to getting the interview. You now have an outsider's view of your resume as it relates to the person reading the resume. You won't get that from a job submission. Only from someone reviewing your resume with your need to get the interview in mind.
- A point of view. What is it? I review your resume like a hiring manager would because I've done that role. That means I'm looking for specific things in the resume — job skills and business results — done in a way that makes them easy to find. Easy for those "resume reading machines" to find as well. If you can't get past the resume reading machines, you'll never make it to a human reading your resume much less have a shot at getting an interview. Machines don't book interview appointments. People do.
- A great first page of the resume. I happen to think your resume can be as long as you need it to be, whether that is two pages or five. But I do believe the first page needs to be a killer. If you don't get the resume reading machines and people to love your first page, your chance of getting the interview goes down. Way down. I have a good view as to what is needed on the first page. The format should be easy to match up to the job description. Your best work should be shown up front. Your job skills should be easily found. Yeah, all on the first page above and beyond your contact information and objective. I'll show you how.
- After you've rewritten your resume, send it to me again and I'll do a quick review. It won't be a full-blown review again because you'll already have written most of what you need to write. But it's good to do the first pass and then have it looked at again to make sure you're on the right track. It gives you confidence you're doing the right stuff.
Get an impartial view of your resume from someone with YOUR interests in mind
It's hard to get feedback on your resume. You don't get any from any of those faceless machines and/or people reading your resume for your job submission. There's a lot of evidence that most of the people reading resumes take less than ten seconds to take your resume and accept it or throw it into the electronic trash can. Mostly the trash can. And the resume reading machines? Yeah, milliseconds.
Feedback from others? All with the same 5,000 ways to format a resume in their heads and not focused much on what it takes to get the interview. It's not the same.
My resume review looks at each section of the resume and each position you have on it. I give you specific feedback that allows you to modify your resume to make it attractive to interview you. And while I provide specific, actionable feedback, I also try and present it in a way that helps you. After all, this is your work we're talking about here. Your livelihood. But frank, honest feedback is exactly what is needed to make the resume that diamond in the rough.
Get the resume review
The resume's only function is to get you the interview. That person (or machine) on the other end of your job submission is looking for specific items. Plus, that person on the other end really wants to interview people so a position needed in the business can get filled.
When I review your resume, you get a great first page of your resume that highlights your job skills and business results, a specific review of each section of your resume that gives you actionable items to improve your resume, and, after you've taken that first pass at improving your resume, you can send it to me again to take a look to see how you are doing. All with the viewpoint of someone who wants you to get the interview.
- You get specific feedback on your resume. Feedback is hard to come by for resumes. This is specific and not just general advice for you to follow.
- You'll know how to present your job skills and business results to make them easy to find. You don't want your stuff all over the map. You want that person reading your resume to immediately see how you could fit into the role provided in the job description.
- Updating your resume can give you a competitive advantage in getting the interview. Most resumes just don't cut it. Having yours stand out among the hundreds of submissions is just killer.
The resume review is $279. It's not the multiple hundreds or even thousands of dollars to write your resume. You already know what business results you've done and job skills you have. What you need is someone to ensure all that is easy to find and specific in every section of your resume.
Here's what you do. Click the Buy Now button. After entering your PayPal or credit card information, you'll get a confirmation email with instructions to email me your current resume so I can review it. I can take the resume in most formats; no problem. I'll let you know when I think the review can be completed and get right to work.
Go ahead and click the button now.
30-day money back guarantee
Your resume is your work. It's important. I understand that and that's why my viewpoint is always about helping you get the interview. If you feel after the review is completed that it doesn't measure up, I have a 30-day money back guarantee. I think you'll be happy with the results, but want to give you every piece of mind.
Let me get to work.
P.S. Resumes are tough — especially since we only use them to help us find new jobs. That means writing resumes are not usually our best job skill. With the resume review, I give you honest feedback on your resume, a format that helps get you interviews, and ensures that your best work is right up front in your resume. After you write your resume using the review, you'll have confidence that when you submit your resume, you're giving yourself the best shot at an interview.

Some fish caught in the Chattahoochee may not be safe to eat, at least with any frequency.
Experts say the issue with some fish in the Chattahoochee River is how often you should eat them. The Georgia Department of Natural Resources suggests you follow restrictions on consumption.
What you need to know is that on the river north of I-85, the only restriction is on striped bass, which are meant to be consumed no more than once a week.
On the river south of I-85, there is a restriction of no more than once a month consumption on largemouth bass. Any bullhead fish caught should not be consumed more than once a week.
Roger Martin, the Executive Director of the Chattahoochee RiverWarden, says the fish are fine to eat, as long as you are aware of these restrictions.
"I'll eat fish from the river all day, a lot of people say 'I won't eat this,' but I'll eat them anytime," says Martin. "They're great eating fish and great for your health, just as long as you do it in moderation."
Traces of chemicals like mercury are found in fish in certain areas. Mercury is a naturally occurring poisonous metal that is released into the environment from industrial sources. When mercury accumulates in waterways, fish ingest it and it builds up in their tissues.
"There is some mercury in certain types of fish in the Chattahoochee and you should only consume 1ML a week, any more than that isn't safe," says Martin.
Trace amounts of mercury won't affect most people, but high levels are a health risk for everyone, especially pregnant women. Martin says if you're pregnant, you shouldn't consume any fish that may contain mercury.

See all regulatory consulting services and medical device registration services.
Medical devices are separated into four classes of increasing risk in Korea: Class I, II, III and IV, as per the MFDS process chart. Class II, III and IV devices require the preparation of a Technical File that will be submitted as part of the medical device registration with the Korean Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS), formerly the Food and Drug Administration (KFDA).
Class II, III, and IV medical devices require the preparation of a General Technical File. This is a document that contains information about the medical device design, materials, intended use, manufacturing methods and so on. The Korean General Technical File is similar to a European Technical File or US FDA 510(k) submission.
Class II, III, and IV medical devices without a Substantial Equivalent (SE) registered with the MFDS require the preparation of a Safety and Efficacy Review (SER) Technical File. This is a very comprehensive type of submission that is quite similar to a European Design Dossier or US FDA PMA submission. SER Technical Files require the submission of clinical data as well.
Our experienced team in Seoul has been assisting medical device and IVD companies with MFDS submissions and Technical File preparation for many years. Our services include:
We also assist companies without a physical location in South Korea with Third Party License Holder representation, acting as the primary liaison with the MFDS and coordinating and maintaining the registration of medical devices. If you do not have a quality system that conforms to Korea Good Manufacturing Practice (KGMP), we can assist with that as well.
Please note that we currently assist with IVD registration in South Korea.

Information about Miami Beach
About Miami
Miami, Florida is one of the most populous cities in the US due to its climate and all around vibrancy. Sandwiched between the Everglades and the Atlantic Ocean, Miami has countless gems to offer to its residents and visitors alike. It's a capitol of commerce, culture, and entertainment, but despite the bustle, it is an extraordinarily clean city. The fresh air blows through the city and its beaches, stirring excitement and drawing in both tourists with their families and college students with their friends looking for a hot vacation spot.
Things to Do in Miami
To orient yourself in the city, first hop on a boat tour of the city and surrounding beaches, or go on a tour of the Everglades to engage with wildlife. Miami has great beaches up and down the coast, including some novelties such as the Star Island. Miami Beach is the most popular spot to snag some towel space. The Port of Miami is a major cruise port, so for a luxury side trip, look there. South Beach is the place for shopping and epic nightlife activities. Bringing the kids along? Miami Zoo and the Seaquarium are two attractions that will make them go crazy, without driving you crazy.
Miami Accommodations
Whether you came to Miami for beaches or the city, we have you covered. Find apartments and condos in the heart of the city. Or book a vacation rental in Miami Beach if you want something right on the water (though you can find beachfront properties anywhere on the coast).

So while builders may want to use the latest cool products in their homes, they are often forced to ditch those plans for less costly substitutes.That's where we can help. Our February story on high-end products and lower-priced alternatives generated so much interest that we decided to show you some more.While our story was well received, it was not without its share of minor controversy."We build custom and luxury homes and have a lot of experience in learning which materials can be suitable substitutes," one reader wrote. "Nice try, but your research is lacking. The 16-gauge sink is a very cheap and noisy alternative that tarnishes. The Crestline is a cheap vinyl slider and is in no way a comparison to Marvin. Behr paint does not have similar coverage and therefore cannot be compared. Generally, you spend about one and a half times on material to equal the coverage of better quality paints."To clear up any misconceptions, we are not saying you should necessarily use the cheaper version instead of the higher-priced product. We assume that a custom builder of luxury homes would have the budget for very nice options.We are also not saying that these products are the exact same and, therefore, the lower-priced products will perform equally well as their more expensive counterparts. After all, we assume there is a difference between a Marvin lift/slide door made with 2¾-inch-thick panels, mahogany interiors, extruded aluminum clad exterior, and bronze PVD hardware and a door made from vinyl.What we are saying is that builders can't always use the product they want to use, but entry level housing can take some design influence from luxury homes. An affordable product can offer the look of a higher priced offering.Here are some examples.

Dear Penguins fans,
I've noticed a lot of anti-Chicago sentiments around here, and that's all good. Believe me, I hate your team more than you hate mine, but the notion that you all don't want to root for the Hawks because of Marian Hossa is ridiculous. It's no better than the Sharks fans who are booing Brian Campbell every time he touches the puck.
The guy was a rental for the Sharks for one portion of one season, and he draws that much of the ire of the San Jose faithful? That is just plain stupid and you Pens fans are doing the same with Hossa. The guy was a rental. What the hell do you want from him? He was a FREE agent and he made a choice he thought was the best one which ANY OF YOU would have done too. Did he choose wrong? Clearly, but everyone makes mistakes (well except if you're from Pittsburgh, where you can ride your high horse all day long).
Lastly, another common refrain around this blog and one that I've heard elsewhere from disgruntled Pens fans, is this notion that Hossa "wet the bed in the '08 playoffs". Man, if that's wetting the bed, I bet more NHLers would want to wet the bed more often, namely the 2009-2010 Evgeni Malkin.
Bottom line, your team won the cup last year without Hossa. Don't let some silly, unwarranted grudge define your fanbase. Let the man get on with his career, grow up, and let it go already.
