In the past Event data recorders (black box) were synonymous with airplanes but effective September 1st, all new cars will implement this feature. It is expected to save Insurance companies time & resource and car owners smaller premiums. Despite the benefits, many are skeptical and say this is an invasion of privacy. Event data recorders have been in use since the 1970s, but mostly in the trucking industry. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) estimates that 96 percent of all 2013 model year cars already have event data recorders as standard equipment. [Read More]

These conditions would totally violate everything that Mandela fought for on behalf of the ANC and so he declined the offer stating, [Read More]
The price, layout, typography, paper stock and color of a restaurant menu plays an important role in attracting repeat customers, as well as encouraging them to order the best (or most profitable) entrees. New customers often find it difficult to order dishes without sample photos and spend extra time asking the waiter or chef about key ingredients, flavor, price, etc. Most of this time can be minimized with an attractive menu design.

Bananas contain three natural sugars – sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber. A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy. Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world's leading athletes. But energy isn't the only way a banana can help us keep fit. It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet.

Apple's brand-new iPhone 5S isn't dramatically different from last year's model, but it has at least one major addition: a "Touch ID" sensor. Us human beings are calling it a fingerprint sensor, and it's built into the phone's main Home button below the screen. Apple's Phil Schiller says, "It reads your fingerprint at an entirely new level" — it's 170 microns in thickness with 500 ppi resolution. According to Cupertino, it "scans sub-epidermal skin layers," and can read 360 degrees. As expected, the sensor is actually part of the Home button, making it less of a button and more of a…well, sensor. Using Touch ID, users can authorize purchases by simply using their thumbprint. Pretty neat / scary! [Read More]

Grazia Daily: How would you describe your red carpet style?
Millie Mackintosh: It depends on my mood, I think it should always be elegant and sophisticated with a little bit of sexy and fun!
Grazia Daily: What's your red carpet fail safe?

I really hope something significant will finally start to happen. For now, all we've seen is a million useless attempts to damage juubi or Madara and none worked. I just wonder if Hinata/Naruto tag team was in he original plan or if it's just a coincidence because she built him back up.
I think Neji had a role in the plan that Hinata has to take now.

Oh man, it isn't canon. Do you realize it? NH or NS will be canon at the end, Kishimoto won't end the pairing war before the end comes, he makes to much money with it.
But anyway you are thinking to much into this shit. To alls NH fans you are amusing me, because I know, that the time come when Sakura will have her moment with Naruto as always, and it will outshine this moment as always.

my guess on what it is: hinata uses his gentle palm on the 10 tails with the 9 tails charka and its gonna screw up its charka for a few moments preventing it from atttacking and/or changing forms thus giving the army a chance to fight the two ninja's (good f***ing luck)
Hinata's ability to see chakra, combined with Naruto's strong ability to sense it (both to sense emotion with his fox mode powers, or to sense nature chakra with his sage transformation) is probably going to be a strong part of any plan to fight the Juubi. My best guess is that Shikaku's inspiration about the past few battles has something to do with the flow of chakra, especially between Madara and Obito and the Juubi (and the use of chakra chains, etc).

What he said. And naruto has always been punched and mocked around by sakura only to cry to him back when she was in danger, oh and one more thing both kushina and hinata have the same hair style.
Guys... I think Kishi has spoken a long time ago in regards to love interest. Hinata was always going to be the love interest of naruto. I really can't understand how others see it differently. You can think well... it's just hand holding, but what people fail to realize is that it's not about the physical action, but the context in which the action is done. This chapter had so many romantic undertones to it. No one can deny it, it's just there for everyone to see. It's just plainly obvious. Although Hinata doesn't show up as much throughout the manga, every time she does show up her feelings, and character have always remained consistent. Kishimoto did this for a reason. These shipping wars have gone out of hand I think... it always has been Hinata, since the chunin exam. I'm not part of the fandom, but it really confuses me as to why people argue so heavily over this when it's just so obvious, the mangaka would have diced her a long time ago if it wasn't the case.

Really, bro? You want them to kiss while they're in a WAR against the Juubbi, Obito and Madara?:sy:
Wow, just WOW.:flaw:
It was obvious that this was how the shipping was going to end.
I loved Sakura's face on page 9, she was like "Damn, my ship just sank..."

To support Border Waste Wi$ e's goal of reducing solid waste in the San Diego-Tijuana Border area, the project partners focused on three main activities:
- Business Assistance
- Training and Outreach
- Information Resources
Many of these activities were geared towards providing technical assistance directly to Border companies, particularly maquiladoras.
Border Waste Wi$ e provided onsite waste reduction and recycling assistance to the maquiladora sector and businesses in Otay Mesa, California. Services included:
- Waste reduction assessments
- Training for specific businesses
- Implementation assistance
We provided waste reduction assessments and other technical assistance to more than 25 large and medium-sized companies including Sony and Hasbro. SAIC's waste reduction specialists and trained municipal and university staff and students conducted the assessments.
Border Waste Wi$ e trained municipal staff, university staff and students and others on waste reduction. The primary goal of this training program was to enhance the capabilities of local organizations to provide ongoing waste reduction assistance to Border industries. The training program was led by national and international training experts from SAIC and Eugene Tseng and Associates.
In March and April 1996, the Partners held a two-day training session on conducting a landfill composition study and a separate two-day session on business waste reduction and recycling.
The sessions, held at the Universidad Autonóma de Baja California (UABC), were attended by between 30 and 40 people. The training sessions used a comprehensive waste reduction training guide prepared by Border Waste Wi$ e. English and spanish versions were produced.
In September 1996, a third training session was held in Tijuana that focused on fine-tuning the waste reduction assessment techniques used by municipal and university staff and students in the business assistance program.
The Project Partners sponsored the Border Waste Wi$ e Conference held on December 5, 1996 in Tijuana where project results were discussed, additional training on business waste reduction were provided and the companies and other organizations and individuals participating in this project were recognized.
Border Waste Wi$ e developed several information tools to support waste reduction activities of Border industries, government agencies, educational institutions, non-governmental organizations, and other technical assistance providers. These tools and resources can also be used to support non-Border related waste reduction activities. These tools include:
- Border Waste Wi$ e Online, this bilingual website
- Border Waste Wi$ e's San Diego and Tijuana Solid Waste Recyclers Directories
- Success stories, assessment reports, fact sheets and brief industry waste reduction guides developed by Border Waste Wi$ e.
- Data on solid waste entering the Tijuana landfill that Border Waste Wi$ e partners, including municipal officials and students gathered during several days on-site at the landfill. This data focused the business assistance activities on key waste streams and helped lay the groundwork for characterizing the region's solid waste stream.
Most of this information is available on Border Waste Wi$ e Online.

The San Diego-Tijuana Border Waste Wi$ e Project was a binational public-private partnership that helped businesses in this large metropolitan region take advantage of the economic and environmental opportunities of waste reduction and recycling and went from 1996 to 1998.
Border Waste Wi$ e provided technical assistance to manufacturers on innovative ways to increase materials efficiency, and reduce and recycle wastes. Our primary goal was to enhance economic competitiveness and ease the environmental pressures resulting from the region's large and rapidly growing maquiladora and industrial sectors.
Border Waste Wi$ e helped more than 27 large and medium-sized manufacturers in the electronics, transportation, plastic injection and furniture industries identify methods and technologies to reduce waste in product design, manufacturing and packaging.
Our accomplishments were due, in part, to our industry partners' commitment to environmental innovation and willingness to share their success stories to inspire other companies.

- Build public-private partnerships based on common interests of solid waste reduction, including cutting material and waste disposal costs, conserving natural resources and landfill space, and supporting markets for recycled materials.
- Spark a long-term commitment to waste reduction along the Border in order to ensure continuation of this project.
- Provide onsite technical assistance to manufacturers along the Border by conducting solid waste reduction assessments, training and implementation assistance.
- Enhance the capabilities of San Diego and Tijuana's municipal solid waste reduction programs through training.
- Train students and educators at the Autonomous University of Baja California and San Diego State University in waste reduction and business assistance.
- Obtain information and data on waste generation in the region in order to set project priorities and support ongoing binational waste management planning.
- Develop information resources to support the waste reduction activities of Border industries, government agencies, educational institutions, non-governmental organizations, and other technical assistance providers.
- Inspire and provide a positive example for industry waste reduction initiatives in other U.S./Mexico Border areas.

Become a WasteWi$ e Member!
Many U.S. companies have demonstrated that by reducing and recycling materials that would otherwise become trash, they can reap substantial savings, sometimes millions of dollars per year.
EPA developed the WasteWi$ e program to assist businesses in taking cost-effective actions to reduce solid waste.
To accept the WasteWi$ e challenge, your company would commit to achievements that you choose in each of three areas:
Waste prevention
Recycling collection
Buying or manufacturing recycled products
Why Reduce Solid Waste?
Each of the three waste reduction activities offers distinct benefits, both for the environment and your bottom line.
Waste Prevention Waste prevention can save your company money through lower purchasing and disposal costs. It can also save your customers money by reducing what they throw out. Avoiding the generation of waste reduces the burden on disposal facilities, conserves natural resources, and often reduces pollution.
Recycling Collection
Collecting recyclables can help keep large amounts of material out of your company's dumpster. It can reduce your waste disposal bill and generate revenues from the sale of some materials. Recycling offers some of the same environmental benefits as waste prevention: extending the life of landfills, conserving natural resources, and reducing pollution.
Buying or Manufacturing Recycled Products
Recycled products are of high quality and can be competitively priced compared to virgin products. Buying and manufacturing goods with recycled content helps ensure that recycling will continue to advance and will eventually help lower the cost of recycled products.
Why Join WasteWi$ e
In addition to the benefits of waste reduction outlined above, participation in WasteWi$ e offers several advantages.
- EPA will provide technical assistance via a hotline and electronic bulletin board, "how to" publications, lessons from other companies, and regular program updates.
- Successful waste reduction efforts will be highlighted in EPA documents, business magazines, environmental journals, and trade publications.
- Participating companies also may use the WasteWi$ e logo in their advertising.
- WasteWi$ e provides an opportunity for your firm to be viewed by peers and customers as a leader in environmental initiatives.
Commit to Achieving Waste Reduction Results
Becoming a WasteWi$ e member means committing to achieve results in each of these three areas:
Waste prevention
Recycling collection
Buying or manufacturing recycled products
Copied from SQLJ » Recycling Articles
by ::: Radar Communication :::
Waste Prevention
Waste prevention is eliminating waste before it is created. For many companies, this involves eliminating waste that would go into their own dumpsters, as well as materials that would become waste for their customers. Some ways to prevent waste are to use less of a material, reuse materials and supplies, and purchase products that create less waste.
What Would I Do as a WasteWi$ e Member?
As a WasteWi$ e member, you would commit to identify and implement three significant waste prevention actions. Your firm would choose these actions after you have determined that they are practical and cost-effective. The types of actions your firm could implement include:
- Purchasing supplies in reusable containers
- Reducing paper use through electronic communication and double-sided photocopies.
- Leaving grass clippings on the lawn.
- Redesigning products or packaging to use less material.
- Working with vendors to reduce transport packaging.
- Using two-way envelopes for billing customers.
Recycling Collection
Recycling collection involves the separation, collection, storage, and removal of recyclable materials. It also includes composting materials off-site such as in a municipal composting program. Items collected for recycling will vary depending on the materials your company generates and the availability of markets for those materials. Collection of recyclables is a high-profile activity that many companies are already enthusiastically implementing.
What would I Do as a WasteWi$ e Member?
As a WasteWi$ e member, you would commit to expand or improve programs for collecting recyclables on company premises. This may mean starting a new program, if you don't already have one. It could also mean making improvements to an existing program by adding new materials to be collected, improving program efficiency through activities like employee education, or providing community outreach.
- Common recyclables include:
- Computer printout paper
- Corrugated cardboard
- Newsprint and magazines
- High-grade paper (e.g., copier paper)
- Low-grade paper (e.g., colored paper)
- Glass containers
- Plastic containers
- Aluminum containers
- Steel containers
Buying or Manufacturing Recycled Products
Buying recycled means purchasing products that contain both preconsumer and postconsumer recovered materials. Company purchasing officials can work with your suppliers and vendors to determine which products contain recycled content. Often these products are competitively priced compared to virgin products.
Manufacturing recycled, an option available to manufacturers, means increasing the amount of postconsumer recovered materials in products, thus ensuring that collected materials are used in new products.

What Would I Do as a WasteWi$ e Member?
For this part of the WasteWi$ e program, nonmanufacturing firms would commit to increase the recycled content in purchased products, either by purchasing recycled products instead of virgin products or by increasing the recycled content in those recycled products that you already buy.
If you are a manufacturer, you have two options for meeting this part of the program: increase the recycled content in products purchased as described above or increase the percentage of postconsumer recovered material in your products. Some of the many products that contain recycled content:
- Office paper
- Computer paper
- Newsprint
Fleet Management
- Lubricating oil
- Retread tires
Construction Products
- Dry wall
- Insulation
- Carpets
- Paving materials
- Tissue products
- Trash can liners
Shipping and Receiving
- Containers and packaging
- Pallets
How Does the Project Work?
There are four basic steps to setting and achieving your WasteWi$ e goals.
1. Sign Up
To join the WasteWi$ e program, fill out the registration form at the end of this brochure and mail or fax the form to EPA. Be sure to complete sections A and B. Before completing the form, you'll need to determine:
- The facilities that initially will be included in the program. The challenge can be taken by your entire company or by individual segments, such as corporate headquarters or a specific region, division, or facility. if you start with a segment of your firm, you can always expand to other facilities in a year or two.
- The senior official who will commit your company to the program. joining WasteWise requires the signature of a senior official who can commit company resources to the waste reduction program. It is also helpful if this person can effect changes in company operations such as purchasing and facilities management.
2. Get Started
To get started in WasteWi$ e, it's important to understand your company's waste and how it is generated and handled.
EPA will provide WasteWi$ e members with A Business Guide for Reducing Solid Waste to get you started. The guide will help you take a look at your operations and make educated decisions about waste prevention, recycling, and buying recycled. EPA will provide case studies of businesses that have achieved cost savings and improved operations through waste reduction. We'll also provide "tip sheets" that provide information on waste prevention, recycling, and buying recycled materials.
3. Choose Your Goals and Take Action
Based on your review of company operations, you'll choose the waste prevention, recycling, and buying or manufacturing actions that make the most sense for your firm. Using a one-page form that EPA will provide, let us know what your plans are, so that we can develop and provide targeted technical information to assist your waste reduction program. We'll also be available via telephone and electronic bulletin board to answer questions.
4. Share Your Results
After your program is underway, we'll ask you to share your results with EPA so that we can highlight waste reduction opportunities for others and gauge the program's progress. Using a simple form that EPA will provide, let us know each year how your ,waste reduction initiatives are progressing and estimate your firm's achievements in terms of:
- Waste prevented (weight or volume).
- Recyclables collected (weight or volume).
- Amount spent on products with increased recycled content or the increased amount (in terms of dollars or weight) of postconsumer content in products that you manufacture.
We'd also like to hear about any cost savings or other successes resulting from your waste reduction program.

EPA's technical assistance will focus on nonmanufacturing waste reduction actions.
Waste Reduction Successes
These are just a few of the many firms that are successfully cutting waste …
Waste Prevention
State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company estimates that it saves approximately $ 300,000 each year through numerous waste prevention measures, including:
- Reducing or eliminating shrink wrap packaging on forms and handbooks.
- Using double-sided copies and electronic mail.
- Reusing remanufactured laser cartridges, pallets, three-ring binders, and packing materials.
McDonald's has made waste prevention part of its everyday business. Over the past year, through reductions in children's meal boxes and bags, sandwich wrap resizing, container packaging redesign, and other reductions, the average McDonald's restaurant in the United States has decreased its packaging by more than 650 pounds. These reductions resulted in a total of nearly 3,000 tons of avoided packaging waste from the 9,000 McDonald's restaurants.
Recycling Collection
In 1986, a small group of employees at Honda of America's Marysville, Ohio, auto assembly plant, called the "Wastewatchers," started a corrugated cardboard recycling program. Honda estimates that from 1990 to 1992, approximately 15,000 tons of corrugated cardboard were recycled, saving the company hundreds of thousands of dollars a year in avoided disposal costs.
Buying or Manufacturing Recycled Products
E.I. DuPont Company currently buys $ 63 million worth of recycled packaging materials and other recycled products each year. Since 1990, a "buy-recycled" team has worked to increase the company's purchases of packaging, paper products, plastics, office supplies, and construction materials with recycled content.

by Earl – What I Saw 2.0
Q: What materials are included in the WasteWi$ e program?
A: WasteWi$ e is a municipal solid waste program focusing on reduction of materials that would otherwise end up in your trash dumpster. We also want to reduce materials that would end up in your customers' trash, if your firm's products or mailings eventually are discarded. Some examples of typical materials are corrugated cardboard, office paper, food scraps, packaging, and wood pallets. The program does not include hazardous or industrial waste or recycling of materials within a manufacturing process.
Q: What kind of technical assistance will EPA provide to help me get started?
A: A WasteWi$ e hotline and electronic bulletin board will answer your questions about joining and implementing the program. In addition, you will receive business case studies and other materials to assist in planning your waste reduction program shortly after joining WasteWi$ e. Although limited resources prevent EPA from visiting your offices to personally conduct a waste assessment, you will receive A Business Guide for Reducing Solid Waste to assist you in conducting a waste assessment. Tip sheets and program updates will be distributed periodically and be available through the bulletin
Q: What kind of public recognition does WasteWi$ e provide to member companies?
A: EPA will provide the press with news stories and program updates on the collective behalf of member companies. Likewise, EPA will attempt to place notices (such as WasteWi$ e public service announcements and special supplements) in trade publications, environmental magazines, and business journals. By distributing ready-to use WasteWi$ e materials, EPA will encourage members to publicize their participation. Members also may use the WasteWi$ e logo in their own advertising. in addition, special recognition will be provided for exemplary programs on a regular basis. Sign-Up
Q: Who signs the WasteWi$ e registration form for my company, and do all company facilities have to sign up at once?
A: Any senior company official able to commit all or some of your facilities to a waste reduction program can sign the registration form. It is also helpful if this person can effect changes in company operations like purchasing and facilities management. The WasteWi$ e challenge can be taken by your entire company or by individual segments, such as corporate headquarters or a specific region, division, or facility. If your initial commitment does not apply to your entire company, please specify which divisions or facilities will be participating in the program.

Q: My company is a member of another solid waste challenge program. May I still join WasteWi$ e?
A: Yes! EPA applauds and strongly supports existing programs that promote one or more aspects of waste reduction. Such programs include the Conference of Mayors' National Office Paper Recycling Project, the National Recycling Coalition's Buy Recycled Business Alliance, and the Coalition of Northeastern Governors' (CONEG) Challenge to Reduce Packaging. Under these and other programs, many companies have taken the initiative to prevent waste, recycle, or buy and manufacture recycled products. If you have recently made a commitment under one or more programs, it is very likely that your actions will satisfy the parallel WasteWi$ e component. We'll be happy to work with you to build on such efforts.
Q: My company has already made significant progress in reducing waste, recycling, and buying or manufacturing recycled. Do our past achievements qualify us for WasteWi$ e membership?
A: EPA applauds the efforts of those companies that have taken the lead in waste reduction. We would like to hear about your earlier progress so that we may publicize exemplary efforts and share your successes with other member companies. The goal of WasteWi$ e is to spur additional progress in business waste reduction nationwide. Therefore, we ask that new or expanded waste reduction initiatives be implemented for WasteWi$ e membership. Implementation
Q: How long do I have to achieve my WasteWi$ e commitments?
A: The amount of time it takes to meet your WasteWi$ e goals is up to you. It may take some time to get your waste reduction program up and running to the point where you have measurable results. Regardless of where you are in the process of implementing your program, EPA would like to hear from you at least once a year. Let us know about the progress you've made and obstacles you've encountered in implementing your waste reduction program. Once your program is established, we would like to receive the following estimates each year by March 1: Waste prevented (weight or volume). Recyclables collected (weight or volume). Amount spent on products with increased recycled content or the increased amount (in terms of dollars or weight) of postconsumer content in products that you manufacture. We will provide a simple form for you to use to report these estimates. Each year, EPA will compile WasteWi$ e results into a progress report. Beginning after the first year of the program, EPA will provide special recognition on a regular basis for companies that have achieved outstanding results and supported this progress with numerical estimates. Waste Prevention

Q: WasteWi$ e requires companies to undertake three "significant" waste prevention actions. What qualifies as "significant"?
A: Although you will be the ultimate judge of which actions are significant and feasible for your company, significant waste prevention actions generally will result in a substantial reduction in the material being targeted. For example, office paper is one of the largest components of many companies' waste. A significant effort to reduce paper usage probably would be composed of several smaller efforts such as double-sided copying, posting memos rather than routing to individuals, and reducing the number of "all employee" memos. Companies have found that these paper reduction activities can dramatically reduce paper consumption, sometimes by hundreds of tons per year. EPA will share examples of waste prevention programs that other companies have implemented and view as significant for their operations. Based on these examples and your firm's waste assessment, you can then decide what actions are significant for you. Recycling
Q: My company already has a great recycling program. We collect office paper, metal cans, glass, and plastic. What can I do to expand or improve my program?
A: EPA recognizes that some companies already have well-developed collection programs. There are several potential ways to improve even the most comprehensive collection programs. First, check your operations to see what additional materials could possibly be collected (e.g., corrugated cardboard) and see if local markets make collection of these materials cost-effective. If collecting additional materials is not feasible, you could make sure that your collection program has been expanded to all possible facilities and offices, try to increase the proportion of each material you are already collecting, or decrease contaminants (e.g., colored paper in the white paper bin) through more employee education. For example, if your company has an orientation course for new employees, you could incorporate information on recycling. Where in-house recycling is well developed, you might also consider providing community education and outreach on recycling. Buying or Manufacturing Recycled Products
Q: When buying recycled products, does both the preconsumer and postconsumer content of the products count as recycled content?
A: Yes, EPA:s goal is to increase the total amount of recycled content in purchased goods, both preconsumer and postconsumer material. In order to provide additional incentive to manufacturers to use materials collected from business and community recycling programs in their products, WasteWi$ e does encourage increases in recycled content to consist of postconsumer material.
Q: For manufacturing purposes, what is a postconsumer recovered material?
A: A postconsumer recovered material is a finished product or other material that has served its intended use and has been discarded for disposal or recovery, having completed its life as a consumer item. Postconsumer materials do not include those materials and by-products generated from, and commonly reused within, an original manufacturing process.
Q: What would my company do if it chooses the "manufacturing recycled" option?
A: Identify the product or product lines that you believe can accommodate increased postconsumer material and each year report your progress in achieving this increase. When you have achieved your goal, report the increased percentage of postconsumer content and the total increase in postconsumer material (in dollars or weight) attributable to the increased percentage. For example, if your company increased a product's postconsumer content from 10 to 15 percent, you would report the 5 percent increase and the dollars spent on acquiring the additional postconsumer material for all units of the product (or if this information is confidential, the weight of the additional postconsumer material).

This guide is designed to help managers of electronics manufacturing plants increase solid waste reduction and recycling. Smart organizations know that waste reduction is simply good business because it directly improves your bottom line by cutting materials and waste disposal costs. Waste reduction also helps you achieve:
Efficiency improvements in manufacturing (e.g., snap-in units),
Healthier workplace,
Cost-effective compliance with regulations,
ISO 14000 standards,
Cleaner local environment, and
Enhanced company image
Whether your company already has a waste reduction program or wants to start one, this guide's practical techniques and examples will benefit you.
Electronics is the largest and one of the most competitive industries along the U.S.-Mexico border. Constant changes in technologies reduce product life cycles and increase customer expectations. Many companies, both large and small, have embraced waste reduction as part of their total quality management and continuous improvement programs.
Although this guide is intended to help electronic product manufacturers, many of the waste reduction strategies and techniques apply to all manufacturers.

It was a rough night for Vickie Guerrero and Tamina Snuka. The two traveling buddies went three hours in the opposite direction that they were supposed to be going, thanks to a mistake with their navigational system. Add in some snow, and the two WWE stars did not make it to their destination until 6am.
It looks like Emma has now emerged as a strong candidate to be the next NXT developmental diva to be called up to the main roster by WWE. She worked the live event tour this week. Emma teamed with Natalya to defeat AJ Lee and Tamina Snuka.
Nikki Bella recently revealed that she lost a tooth during a match on Monday Night Raw. She stated that the incident happened when she took a stiff kick to the face from Tamina Snuka.
The seven girls of Total Divas were able to beat the other WWE divas in a traditional Survivor Series match. Natalya and Nikki Bella were the last two standing in the ring at the end.
Prior to becoming a WWE diva, Tamina Snuka was working as a janitor to support her two kids.
Tamina Snuka posted a picture of herself having dinner with the Usos and Camacho.
Tamina Snuka mocks Big E Langston for joking about punching AJ Lee in the chest on Twitter.
Tamina Snuka posted an old picture of herself with Rock's mom on Twitter and wished her a happy birthday.
In a very short match, Kaitlyn was successfully able to retain the WWE Divas Championship by defeating Tamina Snuka at Elimination Chamber 2013. She was able to hit the spear after Tamina missed the flying splash off the top rope.

Odell Beckham and the Giants are a very popular choice this week facing the Jaguars.
As esteemed ESPN colleague Herm Edwards likes to say, "You play to win the game." In the case of Eliminator Challenge, you play to pick the winner of one NFL game each week straight up. You don't have to worry about a point spread here. If you can successfully pick a winning team for all 17 weeks of the season, you're in good shape to win the grand prize.
Ah, but there's a catch. Once you pick a team, you can't use that team the rest of the season. So you'll have to make your decisions wisely and strategically. Do you pick one of the Super Bowl favorites right away or hold on to them as long as possible? Do you want to take a chance on a potential cellar dweller in a potentially favorable matchup? Remember, you're out of the running for the grand prize once you lose a game.
In addition to competing against all fans, you can also form groups to see who among your friends and family can put together the longest streak.
So get in the game now and see if you can keep up your own winning streak.
If you need more help, ESPN.com has all the tools you need to make the right decisions, week after week:
- Eliminator Challenge Survivor Guide : The folks at TeamRankings have crunched the numbers to find the best options for the week.
- NFL Pick Center : ESPN Insiders can look at two different simulation models to get an idea of how every NFL game will play out each week.

Have someone on your holiday list who has been extra good this year? You may be thinking about getting that special someone an iPhone 5. For the rest that aren't exactly coal-worthy, you may want to take a peek at today's tech deal at Woot.
The online retailer is currently discounting the Sony RDPX500IP Speaker Dock for just $99.99. This discount will save you $200 off the list price. However, you'll need to kick in an extra $5 for the shipping costs. (You can also check about Woot's speedy shipping options, if you want it in time to put under the tree.)
The RDPX500IP is perfect for anyone with a iOS device that has a 30-pin connector. Dock your device and it will charge that portable as it plays the music through the speaker. The system can crank out sound via two passive radiators and a built-in subwoofer. Other features include S-MASTER Digital Amplification, Clear Phase linear phase correction circuitry, and an auxiliary input for hooking up non-iOS devices.
Remember that you'll need to add in an extra five bucks to ship this one. Also, this is one of Woot's one-day deals, so this offer is only good through today (Monday, December 17, 2012), or whenever the retailer runs out of stock!

This is significant because the standard for determining prudency is consideration of what a reasonable utility manager would have done in light of conditions and circumstances, which were known or reasonably should have been known at the time the decision was made." 11
While the Florida formulation resembles other prudence definitions most commonly adopted and used in other states, not everyone agrees. Ohio consumer's counsel provides one example. Also, a staff consulting expert in a recent state prudence case proposed that costs not be classified as either prudent or imprudently incurred, but rather as avoidable or unavoidable. Abandoning the reasonable-manager test, as articulated by the Florida commission, and adopting vague and undefined terms such as avoidable, results in confusion and provides little guidance to either utilities or regulatory commissions in evaluating prudency.
In the midst of uncertainty in this new age of power plant construction, utilities thus will be looking toward design-build and engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contractors to provide mechanisms that will prove the prudency of costs and any changes to the original estimate. The prudence evaluation will focus on the efficiency of the decision-making and implementation process, which typically includes: 12
• Identification of what data was available, including how the management systems and procedures were organized and implemented to produce the information to enable analysis. Was the data reliable? What was the timeliness of the data to the decision?
• Flow of the information including to whom and when the data was transmitted and what available data was communicated.
• Analysis of the information including what the information meant, what alternatives were considered, what benefits and impacts were projected and how the decision meshed with project, corporate and ratepayer needs.
• Determination of what decisions were made, including when each decision was made, how it was monitored and how it was reviewed as assumptions and circumstances changed.
Future Expectations
In the 1980s, U.S. utilities and their respective shareholders lost billions of dollars when commissions made determinations of imprudent spending. Utilities were caught in the midst of regulatory changes that demanded plant design changes, and ever-increasing costs for which reasonableness couldn't be accurately documented. Plants such as Marble Hill were abandoned. Some were completed but never started operating, including Zimmer and Shoreham. Challenges in plant operations in the 1980s and 1990s caused extended outages and early shutdowns, at such plants as Zion and Maine Yankee, in many cases triggering additional prudence reviews.
Today, the challenges to new nuclear construction include the lack of a U.S. infrastructure for manufacturing, services and a craft labor force. Also, the knowledge and experience of nuclear construction workers from the previous fleet of plants are seriously diminished. And despite high hopes about greater certainty with standardized plant designs and a consolidated licensing process in the United States, some current foreign projects are over budget and behind schedule. It isn't surprising

[PHOTO] Andrew Wiggins meets Kanye West
Dec 23, 2013, 5:55 PM EST
Kanye West is wrapping up the last leg of the Yeezus Tour with opener Kendrick Lamar with two stops in Toronto, and during the first show at the Air Canada Centre on Sunday, Kansas freshman Andrew Wiggins was home in his native Toronto on a break for Christmas and caught the rapper's concert.
While I'm not sure if West ranted about basketball-pertinent topics like adidas, Nike or Michael Jordan in Toronto like he did when I saw the Yeezus Tour in Chicago last week, Wiggins got to meet West after the show and snapped a picture with the Chicago native that Wiggins put on his Instagram. The No. 16 Jayhawks are off for the week and don't play until they face unbeaten Toledo at home next Monday.

For those who are interested in attending the Accounting for Energy Derivatives, please click here: Energy Derivatives
This course is intended to provide participants with an understanding of current market conditions and how they impact the accounting and financial reporting for both derivatives and the fair value of non-financial assets. Traditionally, accounting for physical and financial instruments has been to elect hedge accounting and/or normal purchases normal sales in order to reduce the income statement volatility from derivatives. However, the landscape of the energy markets has been changing due several factors such as regulations, liquidity in the market, discovery of new sources of energy, political initiatives, and price uncertainty related to the forward markets for energy. These factors in turn have affected the way companies execute physical and financial transactions, which in turn can affect the way in which these transactions are accounted for in the financial statements.
The workshop and seminar will consist of two education sessions: Accounting for Energy Derivatives and Accounting and Valuation of Non-Financial Instruments for Long-Lived Assets and Goodwill Impairments and Business Combinations. Both sessions will run concurrently so that the participants can choose the topics of greatest interest during the breakout groups. However, to help us manage the number of attendees, we have set up registration separate for the two tracks and ask that you register for the one that you predominantly anticipate attending.
The workshop for both sessions is intended to provide a deeper dive into ASC 815, Accounting for Derivatives and Hedge Accounting and ASC 350 Intangibles – Goodwill and other and ASC 360 Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets while the seminar will focus on current economic conditions and hot topics related to the guidance.

The holidays are a popular time to stop and thank teachers and all of the wonderful staff at school for all they do.
Instead of priming the canvas with just white paint, we broke out all the colors and had fun swirling paint over the canvas. There is no right or wrong here, the aim is to cover the entire canvas with paint and have fun while doing it.
Next, we tore up pieces of patterned paper and adhered it onto the canvas. This sounds simple, but is so much fun to do with a four year old. And this will help add some texture to the background.
Once this dried, I applied a thin layer of gesso on top of the paint and paper. This layer unifies all the layers beneath.
Then we added one more layer of color on top of the gesso and let the canvas dry completely.
To represent the four seasons, I chose different textured papers and die cut shapes from them using the Fuse Creativity System®. I used an adhesive-backed fabric for a flower (spring), a yellow fiber paper for a sun (summer), an orange corrugated paper for a maple leaf (fall) and a silver metal sheet for a snowflake (winter). The Fuse die cuts all of these materials very easily.
We then trimmed paper squares from patterned papers and some sheets of cork to mat the paper. These will act as frames for the nature elements we die cut previously.
The final step was to adhere down the papers and elements, and add the letters to spell out the seasons.
