Resistance: Fall of Man, and Spyro creator Insomniac Games recently placed 8th in the Society for Human Resource Management's "50 Best Companies to Work For" list. The list recognizes small businesses with "smart people management strategies [that] develop successful organizations with highly productive and satisfied workforces". In non-Dilbert-speak: good management makes for happy employees and thus a productive company. Not only is Insomniac the first and only videogame company on the list, it's the first company in the history of the small business category to reach the top ten three years in a row!
Insomniac's founder and CEO Ted Price bragged about the PS3 launch of Resistance: "... we delivered a top-rated and top-selling game -- on time -- while retaining our Top 10 ranking as one of the best small companies to work for in America ...".

SAN JOSE, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 06/10/14 -- The Silicon Valley Cannabis Coalition (SVCC) has filed an update to its Cannabis Commission Initiative for San Jose. The group intends to meet the criteria that, according to city staff, was missing from all of the previously filed initiatives. With the failure of any medical marijuana initiative to qualify for the November 2014 ballot in San Jose, initiative language that addresses the city's concerns is essential. Activists state the current regulations presented by city staff at the City Council meeting today would create an effective ban.
"The SVCC proposal to create a Cannabis Commission might be the only way to appropriately address the issues related to medical marijuana in San Jose," said Dave Hodges, founder of the All American Cannabis Club, and SVCC member. "For the past five years the council has taken the wrong approach to cannabis clubs. Creating regulations that make it impossible to operate does not move San Jose forward."
The SVCC's updated initiative addresses all state and federal requirements, while creating an oversight committee to regulate cannabis clubs immediately. The commission would create the regulations, oversight and long term solutions for marijuana businesses in San Jose. It would also aid the city in adjusting to any statewide regulation of medical marijuana or legalization of marijuana for adult use in the future. The cannabis commission would act as a regulatory body for all marijuana businesses in the nation's 10th largest city.
The Commission would:
- Establish strict operational and safety standards for marijuana businesses;
- Ensure medical marijuana is not distributed to minors;
- Ensure medical marijuana does not impact K-12 schools;
- Ensure drug cartels, criminals & gangs are not working with marijuana businesses;
- Ensure marijuana businesses participate in drug diversion & youth drug education programs;
- Ensure bad operators are referred to the city for appropriate action;
- Actively monitor the compliance of marijuana businesses; and
- Study, hold and conduct forums on any problems or concerns of the community related to marijuana businesses.
"By addressing the concerns and empowering a Cannabis Commission to oversee an issue the council has unsuccessfully struggled with for five years, the new initiative is designed to provide a working solution for all sides," said John Lee, director of the SVCC. "We hope to see the council take a better direction, but if they don't we may have to go to a special election."
The San Jose City Council is expected to pass regulations that are virtually identical to those in 2011. Three years ago medical marijuana advocates repealed a similar unworkable ordinance. This problem is something directly City Council itself created by failing to properly regulate cannabis clubs for the past five years.

Handyman Vettel ready to put the hammer down
MILTON KEYNES, England
MILTON KEYNES, England (Reuters) - Triple Formula One world champion Sebastian Vettel is ready to put the hammer down after spending his winter break catching up on handywork around the house.
Asked what he had been up to since the end of last season, the 25-year-old Red Bull driver said at Sunday's launch of the new RB9 racing car that he had been doing some odd jobs at home in Switzerland.
"I was mostly at home...It was important for me to just enjoy home and the things that are waiting there. Some DIY (do it yourself) and stuff you had no time during the season to fix," said the German.
"I enjoyed being in my own bed, doing my own breakfast rather than sleeping in an hotel and having the buffet," he added with a smile.
"You always want what you don't have so usually when we are travelling a lot and sleeping in hotels you are really looking forward to coming back and sleeping in your own bed."
Vettel did not go into details about his 'DIY', saying it was just "some stuff that keeps lying around for the whole year".
However the sneaking suspicion was that it might have involved work on extending his trophy cabinet.
The triple champion is now the winner of 26 grands prix, 25 with Red Bull and one with Toro Rosso, and said last March - before he had added another five race wins to his tally - that he was running out of shelf space at home to keep all his trophies.
The German also told reporters then that he liked to have the championship trophy on his kitchen table, with others in the living room, but he was intending to create a proper place to put them.
Vettel should have plenty more coming along in the pipeline, with the season starting on March 17 in Australia and Red Bull again the team to beat.
The champion said he was ready now to "put the hammer down" (to go flat out) on the race track as well.
"It's one thing to do all the talking now but as soon as you have the hammer down, you want to perform and do your best," he said with a grin.
Vettel has given female names to all his racing cars - from 'Kate', on to 'Kate's Dirty Sister', 'Luscious Liz', 'Randy Mandy', 'Kinky Kylie' and last year's 'Abbey' - but he gave no hint about the RB9.
"It surely will take some time," he said. "First we need to get to know each other."
He said he would sit down with his mechanics in the week before the Australian season-opener and think about various options.
There is a lot of serious work to do in the meantime and Vetttel recognised that it was likely to be a hard season ahead, with the regulations very similar to last year and teams possibly closer than ever.
"It all starts again from zero," he said. "It will be tough to beat (team mate) Mark (Webber), tough to beat the other guys and other teams because they will try everything to beat us.
"Obviously the last three years have been very good for us and we managed to beat them but there is no guarantee or nothing that helps us to keep on winning or doing a good job."

Carolina Panthers Ron Rivera Should Have a Breakout Season as Head Coach
Ron Rivera will enter his third season as the Carolina Panthers head coach next year. Some fans are calling for his head already. Most critics have Rivera on the hottest seat in the league. The Panthers found a new GM in Dave Gettleman and many think Rivera could be fired by mid-season if the Panthers can't find a way to win. I don't see how these thoughts are justified.
Look for Rivera to prove his critics wrong. The guy knows defense. Everywhere he has been, he has had a top defense. Previous coach, John Fox left the team defensively ranked 26th in points and 18th in yards at the end of 2010. Rivera was given the task of turning around a 2-14 team. Enter Cam Newton. The Panthers go from dead last on offense in points and yards to 5th and 7th respectively. So the guy who knows defense is gifted a top ten offense based off one talented quarterback.
In his first season as head coach, the defense actually took a step back. In 2011, the Panthers were ranked 27th in points and 28th in yards. We'll let that slide though. It was his first season and he took the team to four more wins than in the previous season. They finished at 6-10. Good Start!
Last year, Cam Newton arguably took a step back in the first half of the season. He bounced back and the Panthers ended up winning five out of their final six games. Rivera righted the defensive ship 18 spots in yards. They finished the season with the 10th ranked defense. Not too shabby. The year was blanketed with locker room bickering. An unhappy Cam Newton took to the media asking for the now famous "suggestion box". The Panthers ended up taking a backwards shuffle on offense to finish the season ranked 18th in points and 12th in yards. Just before mid season, they fired their GM. Despite the rough start, the Panthers still won more games! Final record…7-9. Almost there!
I've followed Ron Rivera since 2005. If you ask me, the 2013 Carolina Panthers are going to have one of the best defenses in the league. I see a top 5 finish in defense and a 10th ranked defense in points next season. I don't see a coach with the hottest seat in the league. He is in the process of turning around a terrible team. And he is doing the job well. I see a team on the verge of going 9-7 to 10-6 and seeing their first playoff game since 2008. That doesn't sound like a coach on his way out.
Rivera had the Chicago Bears 2005 defense ranked 2nd in the league. The following year, the Bears made the Super Bowl and the defense was ranked 5th. Bears coach Lovie Smith let Rivera walk. The two couldn't get along. In my eyes, Rivera out-shined Smith and didn't have room to grow with the team. The difference in opinion ultimately led to Rivera's departure. Rivera took a role as linebackers coach in 2007 for the defensively challenged San Diego Chargers.
What happened next? Well, Rivera took a mediocre Charger team and turned them into the number one defense in the league. He did that in three seasons and reached the pinnacle of his craft when he was hired as the Panthers new head coach. That is the story behind Rivera's career thus far. By looking at his track record, a consistent defense follows him around wherever he goes. If he stays on course, the Panthers are on the verge of an elite defense.
Add that to a very capable offense and one very talented, athletic quarterback and the Carolina Panthers will get their winning record this season. You may see a lame duck, but I see a coach about to get a contract extension after his first winning season.

You nailed it Ian. The tree huggers aren't stopping with the neonics ban. When time will prove that the losses are still happening they will move on to the next chemical.
Spoken from a true non farmer.
When will people get that into their heads?
If they are banning neonics, why is 15% optimistic?
Now that those pesticides have been banned, what will the tree huggers blame their bee losses on next?
Well the good news is that there will be no more bees dying in ontario with the neonics being phased out. Or not.
What kind of money are you wanting to work for?
Well on the upside Ben, you shouldn't have a tax problem for a while.
Ben, I think that you should still work at the family business on some level. Even if its only a few hours a month. It would be good for everybody.
You can do sixty but I think you should have 100.
Organic honey? I say go for it. I think you should start with 100 hives.
Entrance reducer.
Jim I am quite familiar with the "roundup" label as I buy several totes of it every year. My point is that the label can be quite broad. We have all these beeks jumping up and down about "off label"...
So does this mean that your friend is spraying "off label"? A lot of beekeepers seam to be down on someone who sprays "off label".
On second thought that's the only news I have heard all day.
That's the best news I have heard all day.
With all due respect, if you don't know that roundup does kill grasses then you haven't sprayed much roundup.
The reason why it wouldn't kill the grass in your area would be directly related to...
Great post JSL. It applies to so many things in life also.

I would say that they succeed by not pissing away money faster than it is coming in. Debt is the farm and ranch...
I don't know that ranchers are using roundup to kill weeds on their grasslands.
Yes Mark. Altruism. I like that one. Just remember, what goes around,comes around.
I can think of a couple other reasons to run bees.

The barter system: Pros and cons
Vinod Anand
21 May, 2010
In a system of barter economy, there is no way of storing the purchasing power of the saved income.The money system does not have any of the above problems, and hence it is said that money is the most preferred asset.
THE ECONOMIES of the
long back shifted to the money system. Prior to that there used be a barter system. According to wikipedia, 'the barter system was one of the earliest forms of trading. It facilitated exchange of goods and services, as money was not invented in those times. The history of bartering can be traced back to 6000 BC.

In Focus
It is believed that barter system was introduced by the tribes of Mesopotamia. This system was then adopted by the Phoenicians, who bartered their goods to people in other cities located across the oceans. An improved system of bartering was developed in Babylonia too. People used to exchange their goods for weapons, tea, spices, and food items.
Sometimes, even human skulls were used for barter. Another popular item used for exchange was salt. Salt was so valuable at that time, that the salary of Roman soldiers was paid in salt. The main drawback of this system was that there were no standard criteria to determine the value of goods and services, and this resulted in disputes and clashes. These problems were sorted out with the invention of money, but the barter system continued to exist in some form or another.'
This system exists even now in quite a number of countries, especially in the highlands and remote area that are completely cut off from the market system, and the households are termed as subsistence household that fully depend upon their own work, and exchange whatever they produce with other households for other products.
Barter services became popular during The Great Depression in the 1930's, which witnessed a scarcity of money. In the present times if we look at some of the declining countries like Zimbabwe, where, according to Wikipedia 'hyperinflation began in the early 2000s, and persisted through to 2009. Figures from November 2008 estimated Zimbabwe's annual inflation rate at 89.7 sextillion (1021) percent. By December 2008, inflation was estimated at 6.5 quindecillion novemdecillion percent (65 followed by 107 zeros). In April 2009, Zimbabwe abandoned printing of the Zimbabwean dollar, and the South African rand and US dollar became the standard currencies for exchange.
The government does not intend to reintroduce the currency until 2010.' It is seen that such a staggering inflation rate has completely eliminated the confidence of the people and also of the government in money, and the economy has almost shifted to the barter system. Just imagine that a loaf of bread currently costs about 300 billion Zimbabwean dollars. This has also its aftermath on a number of issues like unemployment rate which has spiked to 94 per cent, meaning that fewer than half a million people in the country are formally employed.Let us briefly look at the barter system:Before money was introduced, it was enormously difficult and inconvenient to exchange one commodity for another.
This direct exchange of goods and services without the use of money is called barter. It involves a direct exchange (in the absence of any medium) of what is not wanted for that which is wanted. None of the exchanged goods are held in order to affect another exchange for some other good. As we have said above, in earlier times, most of the goods and services were bought and sold by this system of barter, and even today some of the international transactions are carried our through the system of barter. Barter also exists in the non-monetary sectors of quite a number of developing countries.
Barter has many difficulties which are briefly described below:
1. Lack of Double Coincidence of Wants: In order for act of barter to take place, it is necessary that the persons with matching requirements are brought together. If a person A wants what person B has, person B must also want what person A has.
This is called the double coincidence of wants, which, as we can see, is very rare to obtain in real life. This difficulty makes barter system very cumbersome, even sometimes impossible, especially in an economy where specialization has taken place;
2. Lack of any Common Unit of Measurement of Value: Once the persons wanting each other's commodity come together, the next problem is to determine the rate at which the exchange will occur. If A has rice, and B has wheat, then how much of rice will exchange for how much of wheat? Even when we have determined such a rate of exchange between the two given commodities, the problem still remains as to how to determine the rates of exchange between all the various commodities which are available in the barter economy. In case there are 500 different goods and services, we will have to work out 1,24,750 possible ratios of exchange which is an enormously difficult task. Not only this, we will have to adjust these ratios with each other in order to avoid unique profiteering by some traders. All the problems add to the difficulties of the barter system;
3. Lack of Means of Sub-division: There are manly kinds of goods (like a shirt, a house, a car etc.) which, when divided, lose their worth. In other words, they are indivisible. In the case of such goods the system of barter fails. If one shirt is exchanged for 2 measures of rice, then to say that half a shirt will exchange for 1 measure of rice has no meaning;
4. Lack of any Common Unit in terms of which Contracts and Agreements requiring Future Payments would be written: In a system of barter economy, another set of difficulties arises when one of the commodities (to be exchanged) is not parted with immediately, and requires to be given away at some future sate. In such a case, there is no way in which we can write a contract, or have an agreement to effect this transaction; and
5. Lack of any Common Unit in terms of which the Generalized Purchasing Power could be stored: An individual's income is not always spent, and is sometimes set aside for future use. In a system of barter economy, there is no way of storing the purchasing power of the saved income.The money system does not have any of the above problems, and hence it is said that money is the most preferred asset, and money system is the most preferred system for an economy to go ahead.

Bartering comes in many forms and is slowly regaining it's worth now a days. Even the internet industry adopts this old fashion way of keeping things in circulation. How ironic that the most modern way of communication uses link exchange (bartering links) to stay alive on the internet market. Or at least help one business stay afloat on the popularity of the internet.

Bartering might show some difficulties in application, however in times of inflation it is probably the only way to survive. In fact the popularity rises gradually. There are even websites that facilitates its applications ( e.g. barterquest.com) where people can exchange not only goods, but also any kinds of services and even real estate. People who looks for specific things are easy to locate and also people who possess what you are looking for. I think it is important to keep the bartersystem alive. Never, never, never forget the things the past showed you, in times when technical modernity fails, we need to go back to it.

Boeing won't offer "Frankentanker" in Air Force competition
Boeing said it will not offer an aerial-refueling tanker that is made up of parts from different aircraft models when it submits a bid in the new Air Force tanker competition,.
Boeing will not offer an aerial-refueling tanker that is made up of parts from different aircraft models when it submits a bid in the new Air Force tanker competition, Rick Lemaster, the head of Boeing's tanker program, said Monday at the annual Air Force Association conference
"We're not doing the Frankentanker," said Lemaster. That was the derisive term used by competitors to denigrate Boeing's previous tanker offering, which had wings, a fuselage and cockpit from three different models of the 767.
Lemaster said that to minimize cost and risk in the reopened competition, Boeing will stick with a single model of either the 767 or the larger 777, depending on what requirements the Air Force stipulates. The Air Force is expected to release details of the new contest within weeks.

Former Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling appeared on the Dennis & Callahan show Thursday morning and commiserated with the hosts about the Yankees' World Series championship. He spoke with just a hint of sarcasm when asked about Alex Rodriguez winning his first title.
"Oh, jeez, let's all cheer up because A-Rod's come full circle now," Schilling said. "He's got his ring, he's complete, blah, blah, blah, whatever. Listen, they're used to it, and they have to accept the fact that no one outside New York is remotely happy today. OK, the Yankees won. Move on. When does spring training start? When do we sign free agents?"
Schilling was asked about Pedro Martinez opening up to the media this week and his relationship with Martinez when they played on the Red Sox.
"As a player, you see that funny-ha-ha stuff and the from-the-heart stuff in a different light [because] you're living with these guys every day," Schilling said. "And there's things that happen behind the scenes that aren't fun and cool. And you watch people that you care about and people that you know respect the game get disrespected. You guys remember, when Pedro was here, Pedro played by different rules. And Pedro, to a degree, earned the right to play by different rules. But players that play by different rules and take advantage of those, that's probably the only reason I ever had issues with Pedro. And it was not a big deal, I know people are going to make it a bigger deal than I'm making it. But the amount of respect and admiration and the loyalty and friendship I have with [Terry Francona] ... I saw some things, from Opening Day leaving the ballpark in Tito's first game here. There's just little, crappy dumb stuff. But you know what, you never questioned the guy's heart and commitment and the fact that he was going to leave it on the field every fifth day. As a teammate, that's all I ever asked from anybody I ever played with, and there are very few guys I played with that didn't give me that."
Schilling also discussed his own flirtation with coming back this season.
"The one scenario I possibly had contemplated was coming back for the second half of this year and pitching," Schilling said. "What I realized early in the year was I could pitch again and I could be better than I was in '07. I had to sit down and kind of go through the mental checklist at home. And there were no checks in the 'for' box. I couldn't do it. I didn't want to. I was laughing because I was sitting around thinking about, 'Jeez, I don't want to go out in the middle of the season and work to get a job for a team if no one needs pitching,' and it turned out in the middle of the season every team I ever played for needed pitching.
"Once Pedro signed in Philadelphia, I thought, 'Wow, that's cool,' " Schilling added. "It played out perfectly. It was good to see him do that. Pedro brings a lot to the table when he's committed to something, even when he's not pitching. And I'm sure he had an impact and some influence on the young Latin players on that team, as well as the young pitchers."

Beef and broccoli lo mein
Updated On: Mar 07 2014 06:03:31 AM EST
Makes 4 servings
Chinese lo mein noodles are made with wheat flour. The flat strands are 1/8-inch wide, or sometimes even a bit wider. Linguine and spaghettini can stand in as substitutes, however lo mein is easy to find in the Asian section of most supermarkets.
For the noodles and vegetables
8 ounces Chinese lo mein noodles
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 (16-ounce) bag broccoli cole slaw
1 cup coarsely chopped onion
1 cup sliced cremini mushrooms
For the sauce
3 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 tablespoon white rice vinegar
2 teaspoons minced garlic
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
1 teaspoon dark (Asian) sesame oil
To complete the recipe
8 ounces beef round steak or flank steak, cut into ¼-inch strips
Cook the noodles according to package instructions.
Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the cole slaw mix, onion, and mushrooms. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.
While the vegetables are cooking, stir together the sauce ingredients in a small bowl.
Add the steak and garlic to the sauté pan; continue to cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes or until the steak is the desired doneness. Add the sauce and stir until evenly combined. Remove the pan from the heat.
When the noodles are done, drain well. Return them to the pasta pan, add the beef mixture, and toss.

Decades of segregation and inequality in Ferguson, as well as most American metropolitan areas, have fostered a racial inequality exacerbated by the criminalization of not just poverty, but the criminalization of black and brown bodies. Too many whites are too willing to believe that a black body poses a threat.
It's hard to continue. I wish it was my kids' bedtime. I wish the dishes were done. I wish the house was clean. I wish America wasn't racist. I wish Mike Brown was in police custody. I wish Darren Wilson admitted guilt. I wish America admitted guilt.
My daughter and I were standing in the middle of the baseball field in Inwood Hill Park, looking up at the stars, when something told me to check to see if the decision was finally announced. "NO INDICTMENT" stared back at me, taunting. I fell to my knees, crying. Yet again I was that kid watching an injustice occur right before my eyes and feeling helpless to do anything about it.
The gradual ground we have gained regarding our civil rights should not be confused with the literal stalemate we have had with the U.S. justice system regarding our human rights for more than 200 years.
Having failed so miserably earlier this month to express our justified anger at the ballot box, this Thanksgiving weekend, along with its Black Friday promotions, throughout the holiday season, and for whatever necessary days or months to come, we have been given the opportunity to express our justified rage, anew.
I don't think the fate of Darren Wilson as a human being really means anything to the ruling class. At the end of the day, people like Bob McCulloch aren't protecting Wilson so much as the system that he stood for.
This is a sad day. All of America's fathers, mothers and children should stay outraged and in motion for progress until we are finally what we say we are: One Nation, Under God, Indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for All.
Last year, Mazy was aware and confident enough in herself, after coping with a lot of self-shame and bullying, to share with her family, second grade class and elementary school that she had always known she was a girl.
We are in a state of emergency, a time of challenge and controversy, but not because of the protestors. That state of emergency will continue until we stand, become uncomfortable, and demand a justice system that addresses the manifestation of pain in protest, the further chipping away of respect, and the real state of emergency our country faces.
This is consistent with the cultural logic that makes it okay in America to use brutal force when confronted by a Black villain. Thus, how can a grand jury indict Officer Darren Wilson when he was battling The Hulk?
We now all have the chance to examine the evidence -- released last night -- in the grand jury's decision not to indict white police officer Darren Wilson, who fired multiple bullets into Michael Brown. But the verdict on America's criminal justice system is already in for many Americans: guilty, for treating young black men differently than young white men.
I can't speak. My country has scarred me once again. How can I go to work in the morning on a train full of people who care not? At a workplace of people who missed the story because of football or reality television?
Perhaps the call to examine this one case would be understandable if justice came more often, but we've seen these unjust acts in communities of more color for far too long.
On March 22, 1991, a visibly shaken and angered President George H.W. Bush said he was "sickened and outraged" by what he saw on television. That was the beating of black motorist Rodney King by a swarm of LAPD cops.
The convenient spectacle of "violence in the streets" obscures the perpetuation of "structural violence" everywhere.
These things happen all the time, right? They will happen forever, right? It's nice to think they won't. It's probably best to think life won't always be like this. Optimism is good. But I know I'm going to have to tell my future children about this country. What should I tell them?
The tragedy of Michael Brown's death, unarmed and shot by a member of the Ferguson police, is now followed by the tragic failure of the local courts to force the policeman to stand trial. This cannot stand without a measure of accountability. And on that score look no further than the prosecutor's office.
Deep down, whether I want to admit or not, I know the truth. The racism that James Baldwin knew and ultimately made him leave the country isn't really gone. It's just changed its form.
To understand this moment, we have to understand that Ferguson is yet another unraveled thread in the closely woven fabric of racism that has cloaked this country for 500 years.
Oh now Wendy Williams husband is wanting to kill someone over her after he cheated on her and she took him back? Whatever. He bad mouthed her when he stepped out on her by doing that. What he needs to do is take her to a professional beauty shop and get that weave done up right and stop making threats on people lives. Ms. Wendy "Weave" Williams is not the only one that can rule the air waves on the radio.As far as "Big Boy", I like his morning show and I have nothing agaist him. There are greater things out there for Tarsha.
Damn Miss Jones, you just can't get a break. Wendy Williams and Star is somewhere busting a Gut with laughter. Miss jones, you have pissed off so many Artist in the Industry with what seem like nothing more than you being bitter and jealous of there success, with all the hateful and negative thing you have said have finally caught up with you. The artist must have put the roots on you. You better repent and ask God for help.
I feel for Jonsey, she's about 4 Month's pregnant and probably needed the job. I think she should get picked up by someone in NY, get rid of Ed Lover on Power 105.1 because he is corny and NOT funny at all!!!
I hated her show, nothn but a dumb B talkin sh*t all the time. About time she got dumped!
I know one should not laugh at another person's pain. But in this case it is warranted. Miss Jones spoke soooooooo bad about sooooooooo many people and in a MALICIOUS way that this is truly karma. At least Wendy does gossip- simply plain and simple. Miss Jones insults and tries to belittle others by saying how she can 'sing' better than most artists out there. Beyatch, please.. I could not STAND to hear when she came at Danity Kane. They are who they are- a gimmick. And if Miss Jones wants to WORK she better get herself a gimmick or just fall back and shut the hell up. I'm glad she is gone. I hope she is never back in NY again!!
I just wonder if the Philly station new this before she packed her stuff up and went down there. You can't play with people's livelihood like that
Aw Dag!!!
I wondered what happened, I love the music that's playing now - but I will miss you and please keep you listners informed.
Bless you, and your family
Newsflash to Mrs. Jones: The Shock-Jock era on public radio airwaves is dead. Ask Howard Stern who is now on satellite radio or Don Imus who lost a sweet radio/television syndication broadcast deal trying to "shock" people. If you want to maintain a long lasting career in the radio business then it is time for you to re-invent yourself. If not your radio career will go just as well your music career did.

MINNEAPOLIS, Nov. 30, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Nonin Medical, Inc. announced today the publication of two separate studies that demonstrate the clinical efficacy of the company's EQUANOX™ Model 7600 Cerebral and Somatic Oximetry System in adult and pediatric patients. The studies, published in the Annals of Thoracic Surgery (November) and the Journal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia (December), demonstrate the clinical effectiveness of Nonin's EQUANOX sensors in measuring critical oxygen saturation levels in the brain.1-2 The studies are the first published results to demonstrate the absolute accuracy of a near infra-red spectroscopy (NIRS) cerebral oximeter system in a wide range of patients. Nonin Medical sponsored the studies.
(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20121130/CG22180)
The EQUANOX System is a NIRS-based monitoring device that noninvasively and continuously detects oxygen saturation status in the brain and other tissue. The device allows clinicians to quickly react to reverse harmful tissue ischemia events before they become critical.
"Nonin is pleased with the publication of these peer-reviewed studies validating the industry-leading absolute accuracy of the EQUANOX cerebral oximeter system," said Jill Wroblewski, Senior Manager of Market Development for Nonin Medical. Unlike other regional oximetry systems that may only indicate whether oxygen levels are increasing or decreasing, EQUANOX's proprietary technology provides real-time absolute accuracy of actual physiologic conditions on neonatal to adult patients, regardless of age, weight or skin color, for accuracy clinicians can trust and act on."
Advantages of the EQUANOX Advance Model 7600 Oximetry System include:
- Cerebral and Somatic Monitoring – Up to four channels displayed on one screen for monitoring oxygen saturation in the brain and somatic sites on the body
- Patented Dual-Light Emitters and Detectors with Four Wavelength Accuracy – The first and only device that utilizes a dual-light emitting and detecting sensor architecture, which has been shown to more effectively target the cerebral cortex, eliminating surface artifacts that interfere with measurement accuracy3
- Absolute Accuracy – Assures accurate measure of tissue saturation at a point in time, not just relative or trending accuracy of changes
- Consistency and Reliability – Rapid, reliable response to change without signal instability and interruptions from ambient electrical and light interference
- Portability and Connectivity – Lightweight, durable monitor with long battery life and pole-mounting capability for continually monitoring patients during intra-hospital transport. Data output available via Bluetooth® wireless technology or RS232 connection. Interfaces with Philips® VueLink to provide connectivity to a variety of Philips multi-parameter monitors, Philips CompuRecord Anesthesia Information System, Spectrum Medical VIPER Independent Data Management System and Sorin Perfusion Data Management System. Also interfaces with CAPSULE gateways to allow connectivity to a variety of electronic medical record systems, including EPIC.

Three songs from the soundtrack to the upcoming LeBron James documentary, "More Than a Game," bowed this month on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. And two of the three are by newcomer Ester Dean. Born in Muskogee, Oklahoma, Dean co-wrote Mary J. Blige's empowering "Stronger," which is No. 91 on the chart, as well as her own energetic "Drop It Low," which sits at No. 64 four weeks after entering the tally at No. 88. Both tracks were written in collaboration with others, including singer-songwriter Chris Brown, who is also featured on "Low. " The third "More" chart entry is Drake's "Forever" featuring Kanye West, Lil Wayne & Eminem. It's No. 40 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs.
