Lady Gaga Wears Alexander McQueen at 2010 MTV VMAs
2010 MTV Video Music Awards: Lady Gaga
by Fashion 22 Reactions 8 Shares Print
Lady Gaga always makes an entrance, so why would tonight be an exception? She just arrived on the red carpet in an over-the-top getup, Gaga-style: a gold feather headpiece, a poufy Renaissance-inspired gown by Alexander McQueen, and blue tips in her hair. It's definitely less risque than Gaga's previous choices; what do you think?

She's not fun anymore, she wants to be one of the beautiful people now instead of mocking them.

I think she looks gorgeous! I would have LOVED it if she took out the bright blue highlights and pulled her hair up, but at the same time, I think it's very her.

I love that hair color on her (minus the blue). Her makeup is pretty fab, too. She looks very modelesque! I'm not too sure how I feel about the McQueen.

I like her hair and makeup, and I like the dress, just not the painting pattern.

This is who she is. If she were wearing a LBD I'll be disappointed.

I think the dress on its own would have been ok, but the hair color and hair piece is way too much.
asco00 4 years
This is a dress from Alexander McQueen's final collection.

I'm sure she'll pretend it's her "art" or " self expression" but really, her desperate attempts for attention and press are pathetic. So over her.

Never seen this guy before. I guess I feel like a moron now tho. He seems very intuative and insightful. One thing I did hear from a BIG investor buddy about our oil though is the fact that we want to remain untapped until the world runs out and then we can charge an arm and a leg.... thats how we pay off our debt. A bit conspiratorial I know but Ive heard crazier!

Lacoste to celebrate new store on Lincoln Road
See you in a while crocodile
This Thursday you can shop to your heart's content and know that it's gone to good. At the new Lacoste store at 1026 Lincoln Road, on Miami Beach, 50 percent of the sales of the evening (7-9 p.m.) will go to the Everglades Foundation (get the irony?).
Consumers also get a "special gift" with purchase, which is pretty decent motivation.
Trivia: Famed tennis player Rene Lacoste became a designer after his days on the court ended. He used the logo for the company he founded in 1933 because his sporty nickname was the Crocodile. The reptile came about after Lacoste made a bet with the Captain of the French Davis Cup team --who promised Rene a crocodile skin suitcase if he won a match.
A friend of Rene's, Robert George, drew a crocodile that was embroidered on the blazer that he wore on the court from then on. Conversation starter or what?
Among the array of polos, shorts, dresses, skirts and accessories, there will be cocktails and sounds by DJ Aliyo.

Boston College bests Bobcats, 6-1
Behind the pitching of freshman George Dummar and senior Todd DeFrancesco, the Quinnipiac baseball team kept Boston College's mighty offense somewhat in check. However, the Bobcats' bats could not come through against a stellar performance from Eagles starter Dane Clemens, as Quinnipiac fell, 6-1, on Tuesday afternoon in Chestnut Hill.
Andrew Lawrence hit a solo homer in the bottom of the eighth off DeFrancesco to make it 6-0 BC. The Bobcats scratched across their only run of the game in the top of the ninth on a bases-loaded walk earned by Joe Poletsky.
The Eagles struck first against the Bobcats' freshman right-hander in the first inning. John Spatola put BC on the board with an RBI single, scoring Matt Hamlet for the first run. Spatola stole second base and came around to score on an RBI single by Matt Watson. Watson was gunned down at second by left fielder Ben Farina to retire the side.
Boston College pulled away in the fourth inning. After loading the bases with nobody out, Mike Sudol reached on an error by shortstop Mickey Amanti, bringing in the third Eagles run. Dummar then struck out Anthony Melchionda but was unable to prepare for the trickery the Eagles executed.
Brad Zapenas dropped down a bunt that was fielded by Dummar, whose only play was to first. Watson came across with the fourth Boston College run. The Eagles got another run in the fourth on an RBI triple from Garret Smith.
Clemens (2-2) was outstanding for the Eagles, giving up one run on six hits, striking out seven and walking two over 8 2-3 innings. Dummar (0-3) was charged with the loss, giving up five runs (three earned) on five hits, striking out five and walking three. DeFrancesco was strong for the Bobcats in relief, surrendering one run on three hits and two walks in four innings.
The Bobcats return to NEC action when they travel to West Long Branch, N.J. for a four-game series with Monmouth from Friday to Sunday. Quinnipiac currently sits at 9-7 in the Northeast Conference.

Picture yourself watching the big game, at a crucial moment, and the phone rings …
Photo: Tim Bedison • Fort Worth Star-Telegram/MCT,
The best example of how talking on the telephone uses a significant portion of the brain is how it impairs my ability to multi-task while watching the television.
Most of us have experienced watching the closing moments of a highly contested sporting event on television and suddenly receiving that dreaded telephone call. I find it nearly impossible to fully experience what is occurring in the sporting event while talking on the telephone. It's just too much of a distraction, and I usually request to return the call.
There's no question that talking on the phone while driving distracts from my ability to concentrate on the road.

Imagine being in your home and realizing gunshots are coming inside….not just once -- but twice.
That's exactly what happened to people who live in one trailer park in Kanawha County. It happened on West Washington Street just outside the Charleston city limits.
Jack Russell says, "I heard pop pop pop and then I heard you know the wood crunch and hit the side of my dishwasher….. I'm sort of self reliant, felt I could protect myself being outside the city limits, but there's nothing you can do when bullets start flying through your house and you're lying in bed."
Jack's grandchildren live in the trailer just behind him. Two of them are babies, just 4 weeks old. And he feared that if his metal dishwasher had not been in the path of that bullet to stop it, their home is exactly where the bullet would have ended up.
That happened overnight. Then in broad daylight...more shots were fired, this time with plenty of kids around. No one was hurt.
As one resident says, "Lucky, big time lucky, especially no kids getting hurt."
Some residents are so afraid of another repeat; they're taking their kids away from the area --to a safer place.
Neighbors say the shooters are targeting one individual who lives in the neighborhood: a man who's about to go on trial for arson. The Sheriff's Department is still investigating. So far, no one's been arrested.

The cloud is often touted as the answer to all our problems. It offers countless possibilities, from increased agility and reduced costs for enterprises, to a revenue lifeline for service providers as they take their first steps toward becoming a cloud broker. The cloud broker model can give service providers the chance to avoid commoditization by repackaging their own offerings together with cloud services and selling these to customers.
But cloud brokers beware. There's a risk of being a jack of all trades and master of none. It's crucial to ensure that a cloud offering is designed to meet the needs of a specific market. For example, enterprises and small/medium sized businesses (SMBs) will hardly subscribe to all cloud services from a single provider. So which approach is best for which target market?
Serving the needs of SMBs
For telcos with access to a large number of customers in the SMB space, the Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) broker is the best way to go. This allows telcos to leverage their broad customer access and sell SaaS applications to SMBs in addition to their carrier portfolio. SMBs will not only expect consolidated provisioning and billing but also an aggregation of services and federation of data across multiple SaaS applications provided by the broker.
CloudItalia, a company combining telecommunication and cloud computing services specifically dedicated to small and medium enterprises in Italy, as an example, is offering a core set of services that are vertically focused and aimed specifically at the SMB customer segment. This approach is all about providing pre-packaged services that, as much as possible, are a `no brainer' for SMBs to work with. MashApp tools are critical here. They provide the capability to build services by creating mash-ups of the business applications SMBs are most likely to require such as Saleforce.com. Together with orchestration tools this allows users to build the exact services they require. Because the cloud service provision component is based on the company's existing telecom business with its own network, this gives CloudItalia's customers particular benefits.
Forrester's Forrsights survey data showed that at the end 2012, on average nine different SaaS applications were used at the same time in a single business. This will increase to 13 by the end of 2013. This requires a higher automation of billing and integration among all SaaS applications used, including a flexible subscription approach for individual employees. All of these challenges are potential value propositions for future SaaS brokers.
The enterprise approach
Enterprises seriously moving to cloud infrastructure require a mixture of multiple cloud infrastructure services, very likely from multiple providers. Systems integrators (SIs) and dedicated cloud infrastructure providers will get the most out of becoming Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) brokers. Providing dynamic sourcing across public, virtual private and private clouds, this broker model leverages temporary spare capacity on-premise and combines it with spot price offerings of virtual private or public cloud providers. Cloud infrastructure offerings vary by reliability, price, local presence of data centers, legal compliance, performance and many other characteristics. SIs can retain or establish customer relationship with these enterprise buyers by offering the full portfolio of their own cloud services and reselling public cloud IaaS from others. Infrastructure broker services add a unique value and make the multi-provider portfolio consumable.
According to Forrester's Forrsights Hardware Survey, nine percent of all enterprises today use a hybrid cloud infrastructure, mixing a private cloud with an external cloud provider. This number is expected to increase to 26 percent by 2015, and Forrsights data indicates that half of that group will be using sophisticated cloud management such as policy-driven provisioning. This group will drive the adoption of infrastructure broker services in the future.
A unified future
It is possible that a single company might deliver multiple cloud broker models, as a 'unified cloud broker.' A sophisticated business process-driven provisioning framework, which supports the dynamic sourcing of both infrastructure and SaaS applications, would obviously provide a huge synergy for providers looking forward to a unified cloud broker. Technology vendors and their ecosystem of partners are getting ready to deliver this spectrum. However, it takes a cloud provider at least a year to merge discrete broker services into a unified cloud broker business model and technology stack. This is one reason that we are yet to see any unified cloud broker offerings on the market. But watch this space, it won't be long. At that time, the cloud's countless possibilities will be much more of a reality.

On the Internet and TV are stories about police shutting down little kids' lemonade stands. Even 4-year-olds have been shut down by police, and kids don't understand why. Police say it's for safety reasons. They do not know who made the lemonade, what was in it, or how it was made. Police say the children do not have a license or food permits to sell lemonade. They should not need a license to sell lemonade because a license costs about $50 a day. Most kids would even make that amount each day! The police also say kids shouldn't work, and parents are getting fined because their children are running stands!
One 7-year-old tried to raise money for cancer patients, but she was shut down. I think that was unfair! The stand was for a good cause! Other children were just saving up money to go to a water park, but I think most little kids set up lemonade stands because they just want to have fun and make a little money without getting into trouble. One girl cried when her stand was shut down. The little girl's father thought police went too far, and I agree! Kids should be able to have lemonade stands anywhere, but usually lemonade stands are set up in kids' own neighborhoods.
I think the lemonade war is not in a book. I think the police are a part of the real lemonade war! I've never heard about anyone getting sick or dying from drinking lemonade from a kid's lemonade stand before, have you?

"Slow starter"
The book starts out very slow for at least half the book. It's written and read more like a history book than a novel but that history is important to the story and well worth hearing. By the last 1/3 of the book, it becomes more engaging. I had read the last book of the trilogy first, not knowing there were two previous books. When I discovered this, I had to know what happened before and will now listen to book 2.
"Should be listed Christian literature,"
A very formulaic and predictable novel written in the tone of a jr. hi level book. If constantly blaming god for what goes wrong and then praising god for what goes well is your thing, then you'll enjoy this story. I found it repugnant. Put that together with a narrator who sounded like a syrupy kindergarten (apologies to kindergarten teachers) teacher and you have a diabetes inducing listen. I couldn't finish it and didn't care how it ended.
"No ending is a terrible ending!"
I had planned on giving this book 5 stars because it kept me guessing and changing my mind about the guilty party until the very end.....and I'm still guessing. I do not appreciate buying a book that requires me to buy yet another one just to find out who did the crime in the current one. This is just a very sneaky and underhanded way to get more money out of the author's readers. I am not sure I will buy the follow up to this book. It's just too much like a bait-and-switch scam.
"Stilted, flat narration"
The story line was ok....fairly predictable but still interesting enough to keep me listening despite a lousy narrator. This narrator just didn't sound like Tempe at all. She was flat, stilted and without personality. Apparently this woman was not the narrator I"ve heard on previous Tempe Brennan books and I will avoid any read by her from now on.
As a woman rapidly approaching 70, I did find this novel compelling and also disturbing as a very accurate look into the decline of an elderly person's ability to even control his own thought processes. The "mystery" is the least important part of this story. The story of the gradual breakdown in the character's personality is far more interesting. Having been responsible for the care of my childless aunt who was stricken with Altzheimer's, I can now better appreciate why she acted the way she did and why nothing I did made any difference at all.
Highly recommended.
"Unbelievable and poorly written"
If you love fantasy stories, this may be perfect for you....the escapades of the lead characters are so over the top that they seem more like a Superman or Batman story. The conversations are written like they were made by a grade school author...flat, simple and not the way real people talk. The male narrator had a stilted reading manner , pausing at odd places as if it were the end of the sentence ....and then going on with the remainder of the sentence.
I thought it would never end.
"Very good story, poor narration"
I almost quit listening because of the flat, halting tone of the narrator. He doesn't "perform" the story but just reads it in a flat , monotone voice and halts or pauses in odd places. But I stayed with it and really did enjoy the story itself.
"Wish I could give it 10 stars!"
I don't give many 5 star ratings. I listen to too many books to be impressed by many of them but I honestly wish I could give both this book and this narrator 10 stars. They were perfectly matched and I did not want this story to end.
Like most people of my generation (mid 60's), I read this book in high school and found it boring and didn't like it at all. It is wasted on the young who haven't faced any hardships in life yet and they can't possibly understand the impact of it's lessons.
But now when I listen to it I can feel the dust in my throat and the bugs biting my skin and the heat beating down on me. I know the pain of the parents watching their children starve and the humiliation of the men , especially, who could not take care of their families.
And, I could see how we as a country are starting to repeat those same mistakes that culminated in the massive poverty of the majority of Americans in those years.
This is a must read for all adults.
"Disgusting and unbelievable"
Where to start with this bit of junk writing. If you like violent, explicit sex with very little story line....you'll love this. It goes off track even more with the rapid growth of bed bugs exposed to radiation. Really?
And, to make matters worse, what story is there needs to be read by a male narrator. It just doesn't fit a female's soft voice. This woman did a decent job I guess considering she had little to work with.
I won't be buying any more from this author.
"cheesy sound effects and sophomoric writing"
Did David Baldacci actually write this drivel? The writing is very "simple" and the characters are not developed in any way. There are large leaps in time and action during the story....so much so that several times I thought I must have drifted off and missed something essential. So I rewound to find what I'd missed only to find I'd missed nothing. The story line just jumped ahead and left info out.
But all of that would have been fine if the cheesy sound effects had been left out. The sudden eruption of gunfire and the chirping of crickets to indicate a walk in the woods....really? Have we become so simple-minded that we can no longer conjure up an image based on the written words? And the sound effects just sounded like someone got a new sound board and wanted to try out all the buttons. Awful.
Please, leave out sound effects and let the narrators spin the images from the written words.
Baldacci's last few novels have been so poorly written that I doubt I'll waste money or credits on any more of them.
"Modern day adult Grimm's fairy tale!"
The only reason I didn't give this book a 5 star is that I several times stopped listening to do other things and really didn't want to come back to it. The supernatural just isn't my cup of tea and I didn't care much how it ended. That said, Kate Mulgrew's performance was so outstanding that I did keep coming back to it and she got me through it. The story was good, I guess, for the subject matter. Well written but even better performed.

This invention relates to apparatus and method for the presentation of mail to the post office with assurance that postage has been paid for each mail piece. It is more particularly concerned with mail on which there is no evidence of postage payment, such as permit mail. This is accomplished by weighing each mail piece to determine the weight, packaging the mail either in batches with a fixed weight or in batches with variable weight that gives but fixed stack dimension and sending a statement sheet to the post office that gives the number of mail pieces in a batch of mail, the weight of the batch and the postage due.
1. A system for providing an easy, fast opportunity to a post office to determine accuracy of postage paid for a batch of mail, comprising:
a mail processing unit for assembling mail pieces and identifying assembled mail pieces in accordance with their zip codes,
a scale located downstream from said mail processing unit for weighing each mail piece,
a data processor in communication with said mail processing unit and said scale for receiving zip code information from said processing unit and weighed information from said scale, a traying station for receiving mail pieces after being weighted by said scale for placing mail pieces into trays, and
a printer in communication with said data processor for printing a statement concerning the number and weight of the mail pieces in a tray.
2. The system of claim 1 wherein said traying station will place a fixed weight batch of mail in a tray under control of data received from the data processor.
3. The system of claim 1 wherein said traying station causes a fixed stack dimension of mail pieces to be placed in a tray and the weight of the batch of mail in said tray is determined by said data processor.
4. A system providing an easy, fast scheme to a post office to determine if a weight in a batch of variable weight mail pieces has correct postage, comprising:
mail processing means for assembling mail pieces and segregating the mail pieces in accordance with their zip codes,
means for weighing the mail pieces individually,
processor means in communication with said mail processing means and said weighing means for receiving information relative to the number of mail pieces being processed and the zip codes thereof and the weight and postage required therefor,
means in communication with said processor means for receiving the mail pieces after being weighed and assembling them as a batch of mail having the same zip code designation, and
means for printing a statement sheet showing the weight of the batch of mail and postage therefor.
5. The system of claim 4 wherein said processor means causes said batch of mail to have a fixed weight.
6. The system of claim 4 wherein said processor means in cooperation with said traying station to produce a batch of mail pieces having a fixed stack dimension.
7. A method of providing an easy, fast opportunity to a post office for determining postage for mail pieces to be delivered by the post office, comprising the steps of:
forming mail pieces
sorting and counting the mail pieces in accordance with a zip code designation;
weighing each mail piece;
assembling the mail pieces into a batch;
determining the weight of the batch of mail pieces;
determining the postage required to post the batch of mail; and
printing a statement sheet indicating the weight and number of mail pieces in a batch of mail.
8. The method of claim 7 wherein the mail pieces are assembled into batches of fixed weight.
9. The method of claim 7 wherein the mail pieces are assembled into batches of fixed stack dimension.
10. The method of claim 9 wherein said batch of mail pieces is placed in a tray.
Attention is directed to U.S. patent application Ser. No. 07/459,418 filed Jan. 2, 1990 and entitled Mail Piece Weight Quality Control System and Method; U.S. Pat. No. 5,005,124 entitled Method and Apparatus for Categorizing and Certifying Mail; U.S. Pat. No. 5,007,694 entitled Distribution Mailing System Having a Control Database for Storing Mail Handling Categories Common to the Databases of Selected Mailer Stations; U.S. patent application Ser. No. 07/282,713 filed Dec. 13, 1988 and entitled Apparatus and Method for the Processing of Mail; and U.S. Pat. No. 5,142,482, entitled Mailing System with Information Feedback.
Mail presented to the post office for delivery is required to have sufficient postage. A discount is provided to high volume mailers when the mail presented to the post office meets an elaborate set of preparation requirements. These presort requirements cover physical order of the mail pieces, proof of postage for each mail piece and documentation for the mail run. Ascertaining appropriate payment of postage is often a problem when no indication of postage payment, such as a postage indicia, is present on the mail pieces.
Acceptance of the mail by the post office usually involves using a scale to weigh individual mail pieces and a calculation of the number of mail pieces. This is then multiplied by the piece postage rate to determine total postage required. The physical order of the mail is checked against the mail's documentation and presort requirements. Groups of mail pieces that do not meet presort requirements are called residual mail pieces which require additional postage. Mixing of non-identical weight pieces in a single run inhibits the ability of the post office to calculate a piece count by using a scale. By taking advantage of the ratio of mail pieces vs. conventional scale round off, it is possible for a mailer, or other individual, to "salt" the mail run with mail pieces for which no postage has been paid. By "salting" is meant the adding of mail pieces for which postage has not been paid.
Although "salting" is not a problem with mail pieces that have an indication of postage payment thereon, such as a postage printed indicia or a postage stamp, permit mail and manifest mail presents a problem, because there is no such evidencing of the payment of the postage on the face of the mail piece and the post office must rely upon the representations and presentations of the mailer upon acceptance of the mail therefrom. As was stated previously, although measures can be taken to assure that the number of mail pieces in a tray is correct when the mail pieces have substantially the same weight, there is no easy method of doing this with a batch of mail in which the weight of the mail pieces varies from piece to piece.
Clearly, it would be advantageous to provide a system and method whereby a mail batch containing mail pieces with different weights can be presented to the post office in such a way that the post office is assured that sufficient postage payment has been made for the mail received from a mailer.
It has been found that using a high speed scale having the accuracy to weigh individual mail pieces within the tolerances provided by the post office makes it possible to devise a system which assures accurate determination of the payment of postage and would uncover "salting" of a mail run. An example of such a scale is shown and described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,778,018. Such a high speed scale can be used in a system operating either in one of two modes, the first mode, the scale is used to accumulate individual mail piece weights into an aggregate or batch weight of predetermined weight such as eight ounces. The composition of the batch is determined by a processor having a mail list and could be a batch of mail pieces with identical five digit zip codes or three digit zip codes. The scale to determine the maximum number of envelopes which will comprise a batch without exceeding the predetermined batch weight limit. Each batch would weigh close to the same amount making easier for the mailer or post office to verify the total weight. If anyone were to add mail pieces to the batch for which postage had not been paid, subsequent inspection of the batch would reveal the same because of the discrepancy in weight.
In the second mode, the scale is used to determine the weight of a batch of mail comprised of a plurality of mail pieces with the same five digit or three digit zip code that is placed in a tray in fixed batch dimension. The weight of each batch would be included in a manifest like printout for verification by the mailer or by the post office.
FIG. 1 shows a system in which the instant invention can be practiced, and
FIG. 2A and 2B show statement sheets that are produced by the system shown in FIG. 1.
With reference to FIG. 1, a system is shown generally at 10 which can be used by a high volume mailer to either form mail batches of pre-determined weight or for determining the weight of mail containing trays that are to be sent to a post office. The system includes the functions of inserting, sealing, sorting, and a mail processor 12 counting of mail pieces according to zip codes printed thereon. Downstream from the mail processor 12 is a scale 14 that receives mail pieces individually from the mail processor 12. Both the mail processor 12 and the scale 14 are in communication with a data processor 16. The data processor can be one of any number of commercially available computers such as an I.B.M. AT personal computer. Downstream from the scale 14 is a traying station 18 where the mail pieces are placed into trays. A post office 20 is shown which will receive the trays of mail. In FIG. 1, double arrows are used to indicate conveyance of mail pieces from the mail processor to the scale 14 to the traying station, and to the Post Office 20. Such conveying mechanisms are well known in the art and will not be discussed in detail. Single lines are shown for the purpose of indicating electrical communication between various units for the purpose of providing data communication therebetween.
With reference to FIG. 2, a statement sheet 24 is shown of the type that will accompany a tray for describing the contents of the tray. FIG. 2B shows the statement sheet that will be supplied to the post office for providing information relative to a run of mail that will include one or more trays.
In operation, mail is first assembled in any one of a number of well known techniques with a zip code designation such as by the 3 digit zip code or 5 digit zip code. Mail pieces processed by an inserter, which is part of the mail processor, will have dash codes thereon indicating the zip code to which the mail is to be sent. As the mail is being processed the mail processor 12 will determine from the dash codes when a change in zip code takes place. Such zip code brakes can be evidenced by a marking on the mail piece that starts a new zip code and the mail pieces will be sorted or segregated in accordance with their zip code designations. The zip code brake can be a different five digit code or a different three digit zip code. After zip code identification, the mail pieces are conveyed in series to the scale 14 by any convenient conveying means. The scale 14 must be a high speed scale capable of weighing with the tolerance of postal requirements, such as that shown and described in the U.S. Pat. No. 4,778,018. Both the mail processing unit 12 and the scale 14 upload data to the data processor 16 relative to the mail that is being processed. The mail processing unit 12 will send to the data processor 16 the number of mail pieces being processed as well as the zip codes of these mail pieces. The scale 14 will send data to the data processor 16 relative to the weight of each mail piece. The data processor 16 will determine the postage required based on the individual weight of the mail pieces, the number of mail pieces and the class of mail. Thereafter the mail pieces will be trayed by any convenient manner so that mail is transferred from the scale to a tray in accordance with the zip code brakes. More specifically, each tray 18 will contain mail that has the same 3 digit zip code, but can contain the same 5 digit zips therein if the mailer has a sufficiently high volume of mail.
Upon receipt of data from the mail processing unit 12 and scale 14, the data processor 16 will be in a position to determine the number and the weight of mail pieces placed into a tray 18. The data processor can determine when a predetermined weight of mail pieces has been reached and cause that quantity of mail to be placed in a tray. Such a fixed batch weight can be banded, placed in a tray or both. Alternatively, a fixed stack dimension can be achieved, such as the length of a tray. By stack dimension is meant that dimension that varies as mail pieces are stacked face to face. Where all the mail pieces are identical, the number of mail pieces in a fixed batch dimension would be the same from tray to tray. But, when the mail pieces are of variable weight, a determination must be made as to the number of mail pieces required to obtain a fixed batch dimension. This is achieved by coordination between the traying station 18 and the data processor 16 wherein the data processor will make a determination of the thickness of mail pieces based upon the weights thereof and the traying station will fill a tray of mail under control of the data processor. In either case, the data processor will cause the printer 22 to print two statement sheets, one statement sheet 24 for attachment to the tray 18 and the other statement sheet for the benefit of the post office 26. It will be appreciated that there will be instances when the number of mail pieces of a given zip code is not sufficient to either form a fixed weight batch or a fixed stack dimension batch. This occurs when there is an insufficient number of mail pieces for a given zip code at the outset or there are mail pieces left over. Such mail pieces do not fit in the general scheme of this invention and would be required to be processed separately.
The first statement sheet 24 will simply indicate the tray number into which the mail pieces are placed, the number of mail pieces in that tray and the total weight of the mail pieces and tray. The second statement sheet 26 is one that will be sent to the post office 20 and would include a summary of all the trays that have been processed as well as the weight of each mail filled tray and the total postage required for all the mail included within statement sheet 26. Although the number of mail pieces is represented by the statement sheets, 24, and 26 it will be appreciated that the weight data is controlling in determining accuracy of the postage due or paid. Even though the left over mail pieces will not form a fixed weight batch or a fixed stack dimension, they would be included in the totals of statement sheet 26.
In this way, individual trays can be weighed and the weight of the trays with the mail therein can be checked taking into account the tare weight of the tray. By doing this, one can determine if the correct number of mail pieces has been placed inside of the trays and if the postage paid is sufficient. If there is a discrepancy, the tray contents can be inspected more closely to see whether there has been an attempt to fraudulently add more mail or whether the system has erred.
Thus what has been shown and described is a system and method whereby the post office is able to receive mail assurances that can be easily checked to determine if the postage has been paid on all the mail received for delivery.

Tried resetting the JetDirect to its defaults? Or upgrading to the newest firmware?
Do the printers work when connected locally to a machine?
I have 2 of these in the the graphics department. They are hanging off JetDirect 170x print servers and the queue is on a Win2K3 box - clients access using Win2K3 (Citrix).
This problem started just a couple of days ago and basically you cannot print - the most that comes out from a Windows test page is the first two lines.
Any ideas?

The 2 things that I'm about to tryOriginally Posted by indie
Had to stop for coffee and toast
restart the spooler service on the server too. Check the spooler spool folder's not full of junk.
Priorities, priorities!Originally Posted by Ric_
We have one of these in CDT shared on a 170X HP print server box. Our Print Server is W2K with XP Pro SP2 Clients.
We find that from time to time it is necessary to restart the Print Spooler on the print server because the printer just stops and will not print anything. We think that it is down to the software being used in that area. The culprit might be a package called "2D Design" as most of the problems occur when kids print from that package.
We have tried downloading and installing the latest drivers from HP which has seemed to reduce the occurrence a bit.
We have another 1220C in our reprographics room and have never had any problems with it at all.
Just a word of warning for anyone contemplating buying a HP deskjet 1220C or it's modern equivalent the 1280. If you are thinking that they will print on card, FORGET IT.
We have a HP DJ1220 which will not print on card, and an Epson stylus colour 1290 (also A3) which quite happily print on card. The techie dept wanted to buy some more printers which they planned for printing on card. I warned them not to buy the HP. The reply? "Oh it will be ok, it says it will print on 260gsm so it will be ok and besides, its not the 1220 but the 1280 we are buying"
Of course, they bought two and both of them came to a grinding halt when they tried to feed them with card.
Then they bought an Epson 1290C and it worked fine.
@mark_wood: Don't you have to feed the card from the back, one sheet at a time?
If this is the case, then I will be truly embarassed! I will find out.
@secman: I've just restarted the print spooler and one of them has come alive (i'm assuming that the other one has got unplugged or something). You may be right about 2DDesign since it is our Graphics department that as these.
I intend to replace them anyway with proper printers - HP Office Jet Pro K850dn. As well as being from the better business range of printers these have the added advantage of looking well cool - they are black and silver! They do cost around £300 though
Hmm yes they have replaced the business injet range havent they with a completely diffrent model with different consumables

It is almost certainly a printer driver that is causing this. Notorious problem.
The rule of thumb is to use Windows native drivers (ie supplied with Windows) where ever possible. The problem is identifiying which driver it is.
You may have to remove them all and then replace them one by one with built in drivers to see which one it is - or do some testing in a controlled environment to try and narrow it down.
Don't know if it applies, but could be the culprit.
I have come across this sort of problem before. There seems to be some driver issue that happens on the print server that then break all further jobs. I'm pretty sure there is always an HP inkjet around when it happens.
You can also test by connecting a machine to the ip port of the jetdirect, bypassing the windows server. This might rule out printer and jetdirect next time.
You can add my name to the list of engineers that have spent a significant amount of time in the past battling with the 1220C on Jetdirect boxes... And the culprit was? Drivers! :?

The London-listed company's shares (ticker: GKN.UK) could rise 20% this year—and possibly more—due to resilient demand from the auto and aerospace industries. The stock closed on Friday at 236 pence ($3.79), up 24% in the past 12 months, and trades at less than nine times forecast 2013 earnings of 27 pence per share. GKN is believed to have made 24 pence a share in 2012. Its multiple is largely in line with those across the sector.
But GKN has become a lightning rod for U.K. investors worried about everything from its China exposure to its pension liabilities to fluctuations in steel prices. "Whenever there are things to worry about, we seem to be a place where people come to vent their concerns," said GKN CEO Nigel Stein in an interview last month. That perception is changing, albeit slowly. GKN's increasing aerospace presence offers protection from troughs in the auto industry, just as it did in 2009. The company added a bit more thrust to its aerospace unit last year with the $1 billion acquisition of Volvo's (VOLV-B.Sweden) aerospace operations, which will help to drive earnings in 2013.
Automotive still accounts for the bulk of sales, but aerospace is more profitable. Profit margin in the driveline division was 6.7% in the first nine months of 2012, compared with 11% in aerospace. GKN's overall margin was 8%.

And car sales are accelerating outside of Europe. Even there, GKN is aided by having a broad customer base, in both the mass-market and premium sectors.
GKN in the past few years has closed plants and reduced its cost base, and it seems ready to cut costs further in Europe in 2013. "There will be toughness, but I am very confident we will come through in robust shape," said Stein, whose focus is on expanding the business, generating cash, and paying down some of GKN's 478 million pounds ($767 million) of debt.
Jefferies rates GKN a Buy, with a 275-pence 12-month price target. Besides offering a chance for capital gains, GKN has another virtue: a 2.7% dividend yield.

Land acquisition resumed in Odisha for POSCO project
BHUBANESWAR (Reuters) - The Odisha government resumed acquiring land for POSCO's(005490.KS) planned $12 billion steel mill in the state amid protests, a government official said, raising hopes the South Korean steelmaker could accelerate a project pending since 2005.
POSCO's Odisha project, touted as India's biggest single foreign direct investment, has run into major delays mainly due to environmental concerns and opposition from farmers over land acquisition, hurting the image of Asia's third-largest economy as an investor-friendly destination.
"We resumed the work only after the villagers voluntarily agreed," Satya Kumar Mallick, the administrative head of Jagatsinghpur district where the POSCO site is located, said on Monday. "Some people tried to obstruct the officials, but police drove them away," he added.
POSCO, which is backed by billionaire investor Warren Buffett and is the world's fifth-biggest steelmaker by output, signed a pact with the state government in 2005 for the 12 million tonnes-per-annum plant on 4,000 acres of land.
Odisha, formerly called Orissa, has already acquired 2,000 acres and is now in the process of acquiring another 700 acres. But locals have been opposing the move.
Betel leaf farmers and fishermen said the project would disrupt their livelihoods. Hundreds of women and children formed human rings at the site over the last few days to prevent police and officials from carrying out further work.
"The male police have ruthlessly beaten our women who had formed a human chain. Police and officials forcibly demolished the betel vines," Said Prashant Paikary, spokesman of POSCO Pratirodh Sangram Samiti, which is spearheading protests against POSCO.
But police denied the charge.
"No force was used. The work is being done without any trouble," superintendent of police Satyabrata Bhoi said.
A POSCO official said the company would continue dialogue with the villagers.
"We are happy to see that the government has started land clearance work. We hope the government will hand over the land to us soon so that we can start our land preparation work for the steel plant," said In Gweon Lee, general manager corporate relations department with POSCO India.
Trade Minister Anand Sharma had last week expressed concern over the delay of the POSCO project and said the federal government will conduct a review.

Referee Alberto Undiano Mallenco, from the Navarre region, will be in charge of the next 'Clásico' game, which will be played at the Santiago Bernabéu on 23rd March. And it just so happens that this is the same ref that laid down the law in a corresponding fixture earlier on in the season, which ended in a 2-1 victory for the 'Azulgranas'.
Undiano Mallenco was also in charge of the final of the Copa in 2011, which saw 'Los Blancos' play the 'Azulgranas' at Valencia's Mestalla stadium. That time Real came out on top, a goal from CR7 in injury time being the game's decisive - and only - goal.
It's been 20 years since the same referee has been placed in charge of both 'Clásico' fixtures during a league season. The last man to have been given the honour was Joaquín Urío Velázquez, from the Guipuzcoa region.
This will actually be the seventh 'Clásico' clash that Undiano will call the shots on, which draws him level with the legendary José María Ortiz as the referee to have dished out the justice for a Madrid-Barça game. He has also been in charge of two cup games between the sides.
Several days ago the news was broken that it would be Clos Gómez who would be handed the Real Madrid-Barcelona fixture, but things have eventually been swapped around. Clos oversaw the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-finals between Real Madrid and Atlético.
