Belize cruise port
Looks like in 1 1/2 years we will be docking in Belize and not long tender we currently do.:-?
That is an interesting development. Hopefully not too many cruisers will get stuck on this "fantasy island." On the plus side our last stop in Belize followed several days of rain and cancelled most if not all excursions in a Western a Belize. A terminal area like this might be a tolerable consolation prize.
This will be good for Belize. I do hope it will spark development and a clean up of the area near the cruise port. That has been one of the negatives to docking in this area. Like many areas, if you get away from the port there are some beautiful areas and sights to see. (i.e. Puerto Limon, Costa Rica)
The outer islands and cays are beautiful and the diving is some of the best in the world but the long tender rides have deterred many from even getting off the ship. The pier will make this better for the tourist industry.
Take care,

April is National Child Abuse Prevention Month. It should be 12 months out of the year, not just April, especially when you see the statistics provided by the Illinois Department of Child and Family Services (DCFS). According to their website, the DCFS receives, investigates and acts upon a report of child abuse or neglect every five minutes, child sex abuse every two hours, and the death of a child by abuse or neglect every day and a half.
It was a morning in 1986 when I was working at 99Q Radio with Dennis Oliver. He was just finishing up his morning show and I was beginning my mid-day stint (after working the morning show on WTAD earlier that morning). It was about a week before St. Patrick's Day and I went up to D.O. and said we need to have a St. Patrick's Day Parade in Quincy.

- Finally, Glenn Beck and David Barton handicap the possible GOP presidential nominees, with Beck declaring that he'll give up on politics if Mike Huckabee wins because Huckabee "is a giant progressive."

Gay California Assembly Speaker Heads to DNC
BY Michelle Garcia
August 31 2012 5:50 PM ET
California's gay Assembly speaker, John A. Pérez, is scheduled to speak next week at the Democratic National Convention.
Pérez, 42, is the first openly gay state speaker in the country and is one of the state's longest-serving Assembly speakers. He addressed the state party convention in 2011.
Clarissa Filgioun, Equality California board president, praised the announcement. "Speaker Pérez is a powerful advocate for the dignity and equality of all lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender Californians," she said in a statement Friday.
Gay Congress members Tammy Baldwin, Jared Polis, and Barney Frank are also scheduled to speak at the convention next week. For the full list of speakers, visit DemConvention.com.

How do these companies get away with it?My boss has told me stories about printing files supplied by clients, and being sued/served a notice because of its contents.

So if they do print something they're not supposed to, they can blame you for breaking the terms of use.Want to know what a true friend is? One who walks in when the world walks out.
As far as I know, clients are responsible for supplying legit files. Printing companies don't have time to check the copyright status of every file that comes our way. Yep, we print anything you send us. If you want to play with fire, we ain't stopping you.
Also, how would we factor in the cost for policing copyrights anyway? The margins are pretty low as it is with cut price printing companies out there undercutting the local printer with gang run jobs.
If something gets spotted and recognised out there in the wild, it doesn't come back to the printer. It's on the client (or their designer).
<--pre-press person.It is more fun to talk with someone who doesn't use long, difficult words but rather short, easy words like "What about lunch?" Winnie the Pooh
I used to work at a tshirt company. We didn't check every design that came our way for copyright violation, but we did refuse files all the time if it was something obvious. Like if someone wanted the Red Sox logo on a tshirt. We even had customers send us files with watermarks on them and asked us to edit out the watermarks. We would refuse those files also.
I don't have that problem where I work now since most of our clients are pretty large companies instead of just some teenager who wants a custom tshirt."Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works."
-Steve Jobs
Originally posted by Obsidian86 View PostIt has me thinking, how do companies like Vista print get away with it?
In spite of all that, it's a fact of life that it continues. There's even bootleg merchandise in major stores. It's virtually undetectable from official merchandise, right down to the mandatories and hologram tags. Some store inventory buyers are either ignorant, on the take, or just don't care as long as it keeps the cash flow un-interrupted in this sinking economy.
Guess I should have read their terms of services. We have our clients actually sign an return a form which we keep on file when they fill out the tax/resale information. I guess it didn't help much then.
We only print for other printing/design companies throughout the United States, so realistically, they should know better than to use copyrighted material.
I wonder if I took files to Kinko's and had them print up some McDonalds logos, if they would get in any trouble."I used to wonder what friendship could be, Until you all shared its magic with me." - Jesus Christ
It's up to the printer to at least ask.
We have a similar indemnity clause and that'll work up to a point, but if someone goes after the designer for infringement, sometimes they try for the printer too. Especially in cases of obvious infringement. We just happen to have a lawyer on staff.
As for Kinkos, no, they don't just print anything you send them. I've taken stuff there that was obviously trademarked and they've refused, even though I had the release paperwork (I think that was a case of an over-zealous employee but they are, or at least were, somewhat careful about what they'd reproduce).

3 Sided Pat's Paper Snowflakes TM Stencil Patterns
Triangular shaped snow crystals, like the 12 sided variety, are currently a mystery to science. The triple edged flakes appear with the same weather conditions that produce 6 sided, hexagonal shaped snowflakes. Because of the beautiful and symmetrical shapes of naturally occurring snowflakes, this is a great way to introduce symmetrical math patterns and concepts to young children.
Three sided patterns appear in nature along with the conditions which produce the 6 sided snowflakes.

Chaparral High School has seen better days.
Once among the top performing schools in the Clark County School District, Chaparral High is undergoing changes to counter dismal test scores and the lowest graduation rate in the district.
The campus located near East Flamingo Road and U.S. 95 is one of five turnaround schools not meeting the expectations outlined in No Child Left Behind.
Chaparral is now looking to clean up its reputation, touching every aspect of the school from restrooms to test scores.
Changes weren't received well by students who openly protested the cuts to faculty and the new order that banned the use of cell phones and music players during the school day.
Under stricter rules, tardy students are locked out of classrooms, bathroom breaks during class time aren't allowed and the lunch hour was pushed back to 1:40 p.m.
Superintendent Dwight Jones told students he's not settling for half successes.
"Right now, 50 percent of the kids in this school don't graduate high school. Is that acceptable to you? Think about that. Right now, some of the friends that you're with aren't going to graduate. Is that OK? That's unacceptable to me. I think you guys ought to kick all of us out."

Delay In FCC Neutrality Vote Has Consumer Advocates Nervous -
When President Obama issued his surprisingly clear but annoyingly belated support for Title II reclassification network neutrality advocates clearly felt empowered. Even though the FCC is an independent agency, Obama was clearly calling out FCC boss Tom Wheeler to leave legally dubious Section 706 rules and his hybrid solution behind and clearly and quickly go the Title II route. Wheeler's response after ten years of debate on the issue? Waiting longer. The FCC's agenda released […]

Not too surprisingly this shift has annoyed law enforcement and intelligence agencies, who've been escalating their rhetoric in opposition to the shift. This week the Wall Street […]

The FCC has hinted they may fight to overturn some of these bills to help accelerate broadband deployment. CenturyLink, which has a very long history […]

Why Dish Network Wants Higher Spectrum Prices, in AWS Auction

Dish Network purchased similar spectrum earlier in 2014, namely a […]

Police follow-up on tips about Oak Park attacker
By Megan Dooley
Oak Park Commander LaDon Reynolds said the department has gotten a number of tips relating to the three robberies and attacks on women that occurred between March 30 and April 4.
In all three, the suspect was described as a black male in his 20s, between 5-feet-10 and 6-feet tall, with a medium build.
"We don't have any reports of additional robberies," that match the description of the first three, said Reynolds.
But he said the department has received a good number of tips that they're continuously investigating.
"We're in the process of running down all the leads we get," Reynolds said.

Because every icon and URL and all embedded content on a website requires a DNS lookup loading complex sites necessitates hundreds of DNS queries. In addition, as more internet-enabled 'Things' get connected, people will rely on DNS to name and find their fridges, toasters and toilets. According to a recent IDG Research Services Survey this rate of traffic will only grow. What's driving t...

The definition of IoT is not new, in fact it's been around for over a decade. What has changed is the public's awareness that the technology we use on a daily basis has caught up on the vision of an always on, always connected world. If you look into the details of what comprises the IoT, you'll see that it includes everything from cloud computing, Big Data analytics, "Things," Web communication, applications, network, storage, etc. It is essentially including everything connected online from hardware to software, or as we like to say, it's an Internet of many different things.

Subaru recalls more than 10,000 Forester wagons
Subaru is recalling just over 10,000 of its 2014 Forester wagons because the floor mats can interfere with the clutch, brake or gas pedals.
The Associated Press
Subaru is recalling just over 10,000 of its 2014 Forester wagons because the floor mats can interfere with the clutch, brake or gas pedals.
The recall affects Foresters made from January 2013 through March. The company says the floor mats can curl when exposed to heat.
The problem was discovered in cars arriving at a port in Vancouver, Washington. A company spokesman said Monday that Subaru knows of no crashes or injuries caused by the defective mats.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says the mats could distract the driver or interfere with operation of the car.
Subaru traced the problem to improperly manufactured backing on the mats.
Dealers will replace all four mats free of charge. The car maker began notifying owners this month.

Beyond 'Klinghoffer': Opera's Composer, Librettist Have Broader Jewish Problem
JNS.org – One of the most controversial operas in recent memory, "The Death of Klinghoffer," debuted Oct. 20 at New York's Metropolitan Opera. The Met has scheduled seven more performances through November. The first staging did not occur without protest, as about 400 demonstrators—including Jewish communal and nationally recognized leaders—came to Lincoln Center to denounce the anti-Jewish and anti-Israel opera. "Klinghoffer," the creation of composer John Adams and librettist Alice Goodman, premiered in 1991—with few additional stagings. The opera is based [...]Read more →

Big hedge funds fueled Apple's 4th-quarter share plunge
|Report an Error
Share via Email
BOSTON — Some of the biggest hedge funds that helped make Apple Inc a stock market darling lost faith and dumped their stakes in the fourth quarter, fueling the massive drop in the iPhone maker's share price.
Noted stock pickers including Leon Cooperman and Thomas Steyer unloaded billions of dollars of Apple shares between Sept. 30 and Dec. 31, according to disclosure documents filed on Thursday.
Shares of Apple rose to an all-time high of $705.07 (U.S.) on Sept. 21 but ended 2012 down more than 24 per cent from that peak, as concerns about increasing competition and declining profit margins weighed.
The fourth-quarter sellers avoided even deeper losses. Apple's shares have lost 12 per cent so far this year. The shares gained $1.95, or 0.4 per cent, to $468.96 on the Nasdaq on Thursday.
Cooperman's Omega Advisors fund dumped its entire stake of more than 266,000 shares during the fourth quarter, according to its required quarterly disclosure form filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Farallon Capital, the hedge fund founded by Steyer, sold 137,000 shares. Steyer, who once worked on the Goldman Sachs risk arbitrage desk, stepped down at the end of the year from the firm, which he founded in 1986.
Jana Partners, an activist fund run by Barry Rosenstein, also unloaded its entire Apple stake of more than 143,000 shares.
Despite Apple's stock price plunge, most of the managers likely exited their positions with substantial profits because they bought years earlier.
Rosenstein and Cooperman, for example, both started gathering their stakes in the middle 2010, at a time when Apple shares traded below $300 (U.S.).
At the time, the company's iPhone 4 was beset by alleged faulty reception, a problem that became known as "antennagate." Apple's then-chief executive, the late Steve Jobs, famously dismissed the issue, saying "we don't think we have a problem." But Apple offered customers a free bumper case that was supposed to minimize any issues.
Philippe Laffont, who worked under famed hedge fund manager Julian Robertson before striking out on his own at Coatue Management, sold about 18 per cent of his Apple shares. Coatue ended the year with a still sizable 643,000 shares.
Robertson's own Tiger Management LLC fund trimmed its Apple stake by 28 per cent to about 42,000 shares.
Large hedge funds are required to disclose their U.S. stock holdings within 45 days after the end of each quarter.
But the filings may not give a complete picture of each fund's moves, since only U.S.-listed shares and options must be revealed. Bonds, foreign shares and derivatives are not included, and short positions, or bets that a stock will fall in price, are not listed.

"I ordered a monitor which had dead pixels and by calling the RMA service, it took no more than 5 minutes to process my RMA. I spoke with Allan, who was as professional as one can be. The service, in fact, was impeccable, quick and easy."
"Bought open box lenovo y 50. First of all this laptop was available at the kijiji for 840$, and exactly the same laptop was 1100$ on their website. I responded to the kijiji ad asking for details on how to purchase the item as Im not from vancouver. It took them 4 days to respond, but it was too late as I thought nobody will ever respond to me. So I went ahead and purchased the laptop directly from ncix website as the price was still OK. Later on I when I finally received the answer to kijiji ad I contacted NCIX about the price difference, cos it was one and the same laptop. Nobody even wanted to talk to me. They blamed me that it was my decision not to wait for their response which took 4 days. Then after 2-3 weeks I noticed that the laptop has some issues with display. I flickers, just about anytime and for no reason. So again I contacted NCIX again. They said that they cant replace the laptop, they can only fix it. It wouldnt be a big deal if I wasnt leaving Canada in three weeks. So all in all I overpaid more than 200$ for this laptop and I got faulty item and they cant do anything about it. One good thing about it that this laptop has an international warranty which I hope will work once I back to my country. Would never ever buy from NCIX again."
"After purchasing, I realized the promotional price was not reflected in my invoice. I sent an email to customer care who claimed that they do not offer price protection, as my item had already shipped. I made it clear that the price had not changed, I was simply charged in excess of the promotional price advertized on the item page. They claimed there was no way of telling what the price was when I purchased the item and essentially told me "tough luck".
Update: I promptly received a call from the customer service supervisor with an apology regarding the representative who was "handling" my issue and immediately issued a credit of the promotional balance. He promised to provide better training to his associate as she was apparently a new hire."
"Placed order online at 5am this morning and went to the store when they first opened.
Even though the order hadn't been processed yet, they processed it immediately and I was in and out within less than 5 minutes."
"Purchased a Corsair M95 Gaming mouse the other day from NCIX. Went to a few other places but they did not have it in stock. I checked on their website and then called the local store in Ottawa to have one put on hold for me.
The customer service was excellent (came to help me right away) and the price was decent as well (same as Amazon).
I will defintely check NCIX first next time I'm looking to get computer supplies."
"I've spent more than $3,000 with NCIX; I am greatly satisfied. No regrets. They always have awesome deals."
"NCIX is always my first stop!"
"I thank Chris for caring and trying to make his employees attain higher standards in customer service."
"Very good on the price match, and very polite"
"Very satisfied as a customer when I went to the physical store location. I had never heard of this company before and my overall experience was great. Now that I've actually been to the store, I might just start ordering online now. I trust this place, unlike some other online retailers which usually have terrible reviews and terrible customer service. If you live close to a physical store location, I would stop in, the employees are great and are always willing to help. "
"Great store , they have everything i want in a great price. Youtube channel rocks, Ncix`s store are awesome , website is great ."
"I ordered a $1458.77 custom built computer & NCIX Pc Assembly on Oct. 15/14 and am still not able to find out where my computer is or when I will receive it.
Phoned them today and Brad said someone would get back to me and no one did. It is now Oct. 28 and I have no answers! To add to this, today is the 29th and I find that the computer has not even been built! Now they say it will be built today and shipped today. How does that allow for testing the components and why wasn't it even built yet? I feel like cancelling this order and going somewhere else!!
I just received another message from NCIX. This time it says that I won't receive my computer until next week.
My computer tech is very upset because he recommended this company and assured me of how good they are, but now he is extremely disappointed with their service on my order.
"their online website has so many items, you can always find what you want, the employee is helpful, althought in many store location you may not see too many samples, but it is easy to pickup in many locations "
"My experience with NCIX has been fantastic so far. Excellent service, and great selection of products. "
"I ordered an ultrabook which was DOA (manufacturing defect). Darrel from the Technical Support made return process easy and went out of his way to rectify the issue. I was 100% satisfied.
I have shopped with NCIX for long years and there is no reason to switch."

Charles Arlinghaus: The complicated question of state employee pay
In 2012, the average state employee made $46,559, and there were a few more than 9,200 of them. In 2005, the number of state classified employees (not political appointees) was about 9,600. It increased to 10,300 in 2008 and then declined each year through 2012 (we don't have data yet for the year ending this week, but employment is up probably to 2005 levels).
State employee compensation will always remain a focus of budget policy, as it is one of the largest cost drivers. But at 15 percent of the state budget, it is only one factor in managing the growth of government.

Another possible top-5 pick works out for the Utah Jazz
Charlie Neibergall, ASSOCIATED PRESS
SALT LAKE CITY — Two days after bringing in possible top-five pick Noah Vonleh, the Utah Jazz brought in another possible top-five pick for a workout Wednesday at the Zions Bank Basketball Center.
Julius Randle, who helped lead his Kentucky team to the NCAA championship game in March, participated in a two-man workout with Towson guard Mike Burwell.
The 6-foot-9, 250-pound forward disputed rumors about a bad foot and said he would fit in well with the Jazz organization.
"I did my homework and spoke to the best foot doctor in the country and there's no issue with my foot,'' he said. "I've gone through five workouts and I'm ready to go for summer league wherever I am. That's all I know. I don't know anything about surgery.''
When asked where those rumors might come from, he said, "I can't worry about that. I'm a basketball player and all I know how to do is work, produce and play hard for my team and care about the person next to me.''
Jazz vice president of player personnel Walt Perrin was high on Randle and said the Jazz had "no concerns'' about his foot. Although he didn't compare him with Vonleh, Perrin was very high on Randle, who is ranked behind Vonleh in most mock drafts.
"First and foremost, he's an absolute great kid — great person,'' Perrin said, "He has an extremely high motor as a basketball player. He's a lot stronger than even he realizes. He's got a great upside.''
As for any downsides, Perrin said, "He needs to increase his shooting ability and shooting range. Anybody who comes into the league has to learn how to play better defense.''
Randle worked out for the Lakers the day before and many mock drafts have him going there. However, Randle indicated he would be happy to join the Jazz.
"They have a great new coach and the Jazz organization is tremendous,'' he said. "I think I fit in well. I'm a very versatile player so I can play many different ways and can adjust to many different situations. It would be a good fit here. Anywhere I go I'm going to try to make something happen. My expectations are for a championship and here would be a great spot for it.''
Randle isn't known as a shooter, but Perrin said he "shot it pretty well'' from the 20-foot range.
Among those brought in for the morning session were Connecticut's DeAndre Jordan, Florida' s Casey Prather, Mercer's Langston Hall, Central Florida's Tristan Spurlock and New Mexico's Kendall Williams.
The 6-9, 195-pound Jordan, who was a member of the Huskies' NCAA championship team, is considered a late first-rounder or early second-rounder, which would make him a possibility for the Jazz at No. 23 or 35.
JAZZ NOTES: Perrin commented on a tweet by Oklahoma State guard Marcus Smart, another possible top-five pick, saying the Jazz weren't interested in him. "I have talked to his agent three or four times. So he knows we have interest in Marcus. Whatever the reason is they don't want him to come in, that's on them.'' ... Rudy Gobert was seen walking to the weight room after Randle's workout, but Perrin said he's "just in here working out, getting some shots in and trying to stay in condition.'' ... The Jazz don't have any workouts scheduled for Thursday and wouldn't say if any more would happen before next week's NBA draft.
