I gaze at the picture on the cover of
The Kevin Lucas Orchestra
and I think shades of Lionel Hampton. Yeah, I'm that old (younger readers will have to Google that name). But not so. Yes, there is vibraphone, kalimbas, and other world instruments in the music as well as some didgeridoo, but it is not what I expected. That's a good thing. The recording called
Echoes in the Sand
is World music set with modern-day flavor. There's electric guitar, chant, celestial voice and some great percussion on this eight-track album. The compositions are earthy and dynamic, almost like a live performance. After I heard the first track, I knew that I would enjoy the whole album.
The opening track,
New World Orchestra
is a sampler of what the band can do and it is very well done. The vibraphone joins Asian themes to make a song for when you take your next tour in a rickshaw, swim in a tropical pool, or stroll among the cherry blossoms. The chant and anguished voice seems superfluous, but then every meshes together.
Little Man
reminded me of a James Bond theme, with Alexis D'Souza's steamy voice and Paul Speer's grooving guitar. I am not surprised that Ricky Kej's name is on the credits for this one. The next track is
Sunrise Over Little Egypt
. There's a perky flute dancing around Middle Eastern elements and its spreading cheer. Kinetic keyboards are courtesy of
Tholsi Pillay
. This is a happy song that will have you dancing in the aisle in no time.
Indian flute player
's instrument leads the song
Ocean Rising
and churns it into a high-energy polyphonic tune. There is a lot going on with a driving beat, strong vibraphone melody and fluid vocals. Just imagine a giant ocean wave crashing onto the shore and in its wake are a dozen incredible musicians giving life to an upbeat score suitable for any action movie.
The title tune,
Echoes in the Sand
starts out with a vacillating violin (or maybe even erhu?) and warm chorus that invites the listener to travel through the desert and witness where it all began. The "Cradle of Life" anthem is a rollicking journey that takes us between the Tigris and Euphrates. Our footsteps linger in Mesopotamia, but not for long because we are on our way to Gate of God, Babylon. The tune
gives Mr. Lucas an opportunity to lead on the marimba and it is a joy for the ears. The sultry theme is further enhanced by
Wouter Kellerman
's flute this time making it a lively tune.
Let us find out what the Sumerians were all about.
Ancient of Days
has a cinematic feel, representing the chronology of a great civilization. I particularly like the piano in this as it has a smooth jazz overlay, which suited the music well. This is the one that sounded like it had a kalimba in it and I liked for that, as the tone is down-to-earth and natural.
The last cut is called
The Dreaming Tree
. There is nothing sedate about this number. It is a vocal free-for-all full of vigor and verve. I can imagine an unusual oasis, a star filled blackness above and joyful dancing around a fire. This is a celebration of life, you can dream later.
Somehow, the Kevin Lucas Orchestra has distilled four thousand years of desert history into one amazing recording. The Middle Eastern themes are bright and energetic when need be and the reverence to ancient times is welcomed. Every song is animated and they convey their enthusiasm effortlessly. Highly recommended.
Rating: Very Good +

Time to run for the F-ing Hills! PM Dave Cameron threatens to raid savings accounts or raise taxes.Submitted by Ulfilas on Fri, 05/09/2014 - 11:45
Not quite for the same reason, this is aimed at people owing taxes, but will have same net result.
Taxes will have to rise unless officials are given new powers to raid people's bank accounts, David Cameron has said.
The Treasury select committee warned that allowing HM Revenue and Customs to remove cash from bank accounts without court orders is "very concerning" because of its history of mistakes.
The committee said that taxpayers could suffer "serious detriment" if officials are able, either by mistake or through an "abuse" of power, to take money from people who have done no wrong.
Mr Cameron yesterday claimed that the alternative was to "put up taxes". He told Sky News: "We have a choice here. If we don't collect taxes properly and make sure people pay their taxes properly we look at the problems of having to raise tax rates. I don't want to do that, so I support the changes the Chancellor set out in the Budget which is to really say that not paying your taxes is not acceptable.
Europarl confirms.
Deal reached on bank "bail-in directive"
Others Press release - Economic and monetary affairs − 12-12-2013 - 10:16
Parliament and Council Presidency negotiators reached a political agreement Wednesday on the draft bank recovery and resolution directive, the first step towards setting up an EU system to deal with struggling banks. This directive will introduce the "bail-in" principle by January 2016, thereby ensuring that taxpayers will not be first in line to pay for bank failures.
The directive is to enter into force on 1 Jauary 2015 and the bail-in system is to take effect on 1 January 2016.
You get that? taxpayers aren't the first ones in line, BUT THEY ARE IN LINE. This is all taking place in the UK and the EU, but I would invest in companies making shovels here in the states as there will be a whole lot of burying going on.
Shit is gettin real, fast.

Man pinned under tractor in Rindge suffers serious injuries
Rindge police and fire personnel responded to a call at 11:12 a.m. to Monomonac Road at Route 119, where a man was pinned under a tractor.
Initially, personnel felt the injuries were possibly life-threatening and a call was made for a Dartmouth-Hitchcock medical helicopter. A landing zone was established at the Cathedral of the Pines, but the request was called off.
The man, whose identity was not released by Rindge dispatchers, was transported by ambulance with non-life threatening injuries to Monadnock Community Hospital.
A message left with the Rindge police officer in charge Sunday night seeking the identity of the victim was not returned, and a message left with the Rindge fire department also was not returned.

Service was quick and employees were friendly. Truck was waiting for me when I arrived, check in was fast and drop off was quick and easy. I will definitely being renting from here again.
The equipment appears well maintained, the truck I rented had sticky residue from perhaps a spilled drink. I've rented from this UHaul several times, and this is one thing that is often overlooked. Otherwise, pretty nice. Thanks!
Offer Military Discount for local moves.
Everything was very smooth. In and out in 10 minutes!
Very good customer service. The staff was superb.
The service was great, the response was great, what a great team!
I appreciated their kindness in not charging me extra for being a little over the allotted time. Great guys! Thank you so much!
Nice and professional.
It was quick and easy.
nothing. The whole experience was perfect. I have nothing at all to complain about.
Pleasant experience, thank everyone at facet our rental, including rental equipment to our initial request.
location is hard to get to
When they delivered and loaded the ubox, the employees did not know how to pack the box. We had to show them where to put blankets and how to arrange furniture so nothing would get damaged.
In and out very quickly. Great service.
Let's not have the customer give all the personal information at check-in when it was already done online! I wasted almost ten minutes checking in as I was asked for information that was entered by me when I made the reservation online. Besides, I just rented a trailer just 8 days before from the same location!
- Pricing was very confusing. Associate was very nice and did a great job explaining it. But i was still lost. Why have $19.95 on the wall, show me a contract for $70, then have me only owe $44 when I return it. I still don't know what happened.
- truck was shampooed but you could smell the terrible vomit smell it was overpoweringly covering up
Fantastic customer service and excellent rental equipment!!
Keep doing what you are doing! Speedy service, professional, courteous and knowledgeable staff! I reserved a pick up truck on line an hour before pick up. When I arrived, the staff heated the pick up while I did minimal paper work and I was driving off in about 15 minutes! That's what I call service. I have used UHaul at different locations in Durham and always receive good service.
I had brand new employees assisting me with both pick-up and return. The we're being trained by an experienced co-worker and the experience still could not have gone smoother. Friendly and informative employees. Great experience and will definitely use them again and recommend them.
I should have asked more questions.
We dropped the rental truck thru the overnight drop at 10p est Tuesday Nov 4th after voting and 1 day prior and Stephanie was able to assist as the truck was returned with the same low gas tank as we were forced to receive it from OKC She was very pleasant and accomodating!!
Good experience overall. Friendly service, everything worked OK.
Downsides: Truck transmission was very noisy. Uhaul should make it clearer that there is a BIG extra charge if furniture blankets are not returned.
Check-in / pick-up could have gone more smoothly and quickly, particularly given that I had made a reservation. However, the employees were friendly and helpful and I thought the equipment a good value for the rental fee.
It makes no sense for me to have to find someone to wait on me after I already gave all my info. Then two fellas argue about who will find the truck. A truck with no gas? WTF

Avanti looks to government funding for second satellite
Satellite broadband provider Avanti is expecting a chunk of government cash to pay for a second satellite, despite not having managed to launch the first one yet. Avanti's CEO has been telling the Financial Times that the company expects to get a significant share of the £200m that the government has promised to spend on …
WiMAX may be the answer ...
Satellite latency is no good for acceptable real-time services such as VoIP and Video. Pushing oodles of lolly into such a system would be short-termism. Given the huge cost of a 3G roll-out and the cost of putting decent backhaul for it in place (and further for LTE) we really should be looking at WiMAX. Latencies are perfectly acceptable for real-time services, throughput are acceptable and the price is right. There's also little issue with backhaul as it offer 70-100Mbs between towers for backhaul using LOS (Line of sight).
WiMAX is the answer if you're peddling that tin
Satellite latency is one of those bits of conventional wisdom wrt VoIP, Video and even humble FTP.
If you know what it is and it's constant, you can manage it via TCP and application tweaks. Back in the dark ages of VoIP, people said thou must have <350ms latency. But thou must also be able to talk to Tokyo and Melbourne via VoIP and even good'ol POTS. Funny how that works.
For the basics, check Steven's TCP/IP Illustrated and the section on the 'Long Fat Pipe' challenge. This still confuses people, especially as they're buying international Gigabit Ethernet circuits and complaining their single FTP session doesn't give them the throughput they expect. This, however has created a market for people flogging bandwidth accelerators.
Where satellite does create latency problems with real-time apps is when there are multiple satellite hops involved. For a UK market, should just be a single hop and apparent latency will probably be due to contention on the transponder(s).
The difference between bandwidth and speed
Sateliite broadband not only has latency issues - it potentially has a heavily congested 'last mile'. The more successful it becomes the less bandwidth is available to its users. A satellite with 10Gb/s downstream sounds good but if it's serving 100,000 people that's only 100kb/s average. This is why satellite broadband tends to be expensive with nasty usage limits. It only really works for bursty applications. Get a few P2P applications or iPlayer up and running and see how well it fares.

It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year
in Religion
In light of the upcoming Holiday Season and as we prepare for this Most Wonderful Time Of The Year, we find that it isn't so wonderful for so many people.There are people that are hungry, there are people that are Homeless, there are many people doing badly.
The people in Ferguson Mo. at this time do not think that this particular time of the year is so wondreful. As their town has seen so much devastation last night, to which we are certainly keeping them in our prayers.
We will also be taking with the Nassau Chapter President of the National Action Network; Elder Annette Dennis, we will be asking for her opinion of the goings on in Ferguson and also the role of the Rev. Al Sharpton.
As for this Holiday season, let us not forget that there are so many people suffering. My sermon addresses this condition and takes place at the Westminster Presbyterian Church in Jamaica, NY.

Canadians have been witness to the steady decline of Parliament for decades now. Non-attendance, scheduled stunts or traditionally blasphemous behavior in the House. The wholesale decline of the Senate. The hijacking and handcuffing of committees. The general assertion that Parliament is now a tool for the party in power to sell their brand. Not to govern. Not to be held to account. Not to explain behavior and policy to the OWNERS of the place - Canadians.
Of course, to learned watchers and average citizens alike, this is nothing new. But the naked contempt, the arrogant defiance, the indifference to tradition has been raised to never before seen levels by Emperor and the Corporate Pacification Committee (CPC). The core principles of the Westminster Parliament have been eroded and discarded to make things easier for the most corrupt Government in Canadian history.
Nothing is more visible and symptomatic of this than the facade of the Speaker of the House of Commons. The last week has shown this once again to Canadians and the world. No other legislative chamber based on the British system has such a farce charged with keeping decorum, focus and relevance on the business of the nation. Andrew Scheer has brought new lows to the position. But he has hardly done it on his own or without direction. The Speaker is supposed to be impartial, treating all Members of Parliament with equal respect and regard. It takes one question exchange from Question Period to see this. A far cry from the Commons of the United Kingdom, where the Speaker has and does tell the Prime Minister when he is out of line and he shall be silent. Imagine that here. If you can.
Join us to discuss this stain on our public portrayal to Canadians and the world. It is time for the pendulum to swing back. Calls welcome and encouraged tonight, lets hear what Canadians have to say!

The Blind Leading The Blind
in Religion
I have found in my Christian walk that people aren't always sure of where they are going. The 'Lost' are leading the lost and "Sinners are leadiing other sinners, it's as though the Bilnd are leading the Blind. The Bible says; "Without vision my people perish." I find that even in the churches, people don't have a clear vision of what they are doing, they are simply going through the motions. Too many Chrurches seem to be just "Playing Church." My sermon: "The Blind Leading The Blind," was preached at the Westminster Presbyterian Church in Jamaica, New York on August 31, 2014.. Please take the time to listen to the message.

"Theology Matters" with The Pellews
in Christianity
Join Devin & Melissa Pellew as they discuss topics related to biblical theology, Christian apologetics and worldview issues. This week we will be tackling the topic of the Deity of Christ and how to defend this essential doctrine. On the air with us to discuss this topic will be Christian apologist and author, Rob Bowman, Director of Research with the Institute for Religious Research. Rob holds an M.A in Biblical Studies from Fuller Theological Seminary, completed his doctoral studies at Westminster Theological Seminary and is currently pursuing the completion of his doctoral dissertation at the South African Theological Seminary. For ten years, he also taught graduate courses in apologetics at Luther Rice University and Biola and is the author of many articles and books pertaining to apologetics, religion and biblical theology. Rob will be offering a critique of Dr. Bart Ehrman's newest book,
How Jesus Became God: The Exaltation of a Jewish Preacher from Galilee. Was Jesus not viewed as God by Himself or His disciples? Was the Deity of Christ some man-made view that popularized after Jesus' death. Rob will be with us to answer these and other related questions, so you don't want to miss this informative show.
The View Up Here talks Harper and The Law with Stephen Lautens
in Politics
The View Up Here is proud to have noted Canadian author, lawyer and political commentator Stephen Lautens on our airwaves. Mr. Lautens has a great deal of experience in the political arena, in litigation and jurisprudence, in the press and media, and as a concerned citizen with the direction of Canada.
The hits never stop rolling for Emperor and the CPC. A Supreme Court ruling record of 0-10. Reports from national and international legal organizations highly critical of the smear against Chief Justice Beverly McLaughlin. Some calling for Harper and MacKay to publicly apologize. Add in the attempted perversion of appointments to all Federal courts. Nearly $400 million of taxpayers' funds wasted in these futile exercises.
Much is yet to come regarding the Senate. From the 31 charges against Mike Duffy, to the complete Senate expenses audit due later this year, to the cracking of the old order regarding how things are done in the Red Chamber. Never mind the amount of vacancies once retirements and resignations take effect this fall. A Royal mess, indeed.
The Constitutional rights of Canadians are under assault from the CPC government. The Supreme Court of Canada has defended them as best they can. This results in members of government crying about an "end run on democracy". Perhaps they need some classes on Westminster Parliamentary democracy. If they could keep an attendance record and shut up long enough to pass them of course.
Stephen Lautens can help us with all these issues and more. Join us and find out what needs to be done to stop the madness. What needs to happen for Canada to regain its place in the world. What Canadians can do to restore their reputation globally.
Tune in and listen, join the chat room, or call in and share your opinion. Mr. Lautens and myself are looking forward to it.
Pope Benedict at Westminster
in Religion
Pope Benedict entered the hall of the great and mighty rulers when he quietly entered the Westminster Hall, London. There he challenged the rulers of government, the powerful of society and the leaders of every area of Great Britain. His words were spoken very quietly yet carried throughout the hall like a thunder clasp. Then His Holiness went to Westminster Abbey and in a stunningly brilliant talk he outlined and forwarded the major tasks before Rome and Canterbury. His presentations in Scotland and now in London will echo around the world and this writer believes that his presentations have already impacted global Christian self understanding. His antagonists said he should not come, he came. They said, he should not speak, he did and what he had to say was like a beacon of light in the darkness of relativism, secularism and modernism! A diminuative man in stature, Benedict is a hero of Christianity.
How to Obtain the Blessings of God (Letter Three)
in Religion
Dear Y.B.M.:
At this writing, I am sitting in my vehicle in front of a United Parcel Service office in Hamden, Connecticut, waiting for them to open so that I can pick up an important package.
By the way, so that you will know, due to the nature of my work, I travel a lot, so I will be writing these letters from all over the United States. I was born in Brooklyn, New York, mostly raised in New Bern, North Carolina, and at this writing I reside in Atlanta, Georgia.
I trust that you have come to know your Creator, God, by believing in His Son, Jesus Christ as your Saviour. That is, indeed, the most important thing that you will ever do in your life. Congratulations, if you have made that all important decision. If perhaps you have not done so, please do not procrastinate, for tomorrow, as they say, is not promised you.
Now, in this letter, I would like to share with you how it is that you can obtain the coveted blessings of God in this life. Those who are genuinely happy and successful in this life are those who have been blessed by God. You may ask, "well, what is a blessing, anyway?" I've heard older folks in my family use the term often, and I myself used to wonder, "What is a blessing?" Well, according to Webster's Third New International Dictionary, it means:
To make happy: give good fortune or satisfaction to; confer prosperity upon…
According to the Nelson Bible Dictionary blessed means: God blesses people by granting prosperity or well-being in the form of both physical and spiritual grace.
And according to the New Westminster Dictionary of the Bible, blessed or blessing means: To bestow divine favor and confer divine benefits. Favors, advantages, conferred by God, and bringing pleasure or happiness in their lives.

Memphis rapper Yo Gotti has offered some words toward Gucci Mane after catching heat for dropping a mixtape on the same day as the Atlanta hip-hop artist's Trap God.
Gotti said he is upset by Gucci's reaction to him dropping CM7: The World is Yours.
"He never reached out to me. I still ain't thinking nothing about it because he supposed to be my homeboy. You get what I'm saying? And then last minute we in the lab, we heard about the tweet. When we heard about the tweet I immediately hit his phone like, 'What's up homie? You good?' And we chopped it up. And long story short, from that point I realized that homie had an issue for whatever reason it was." (K97.1)
He also spoke on why Gucci would take things even further by putting out a diss track.
"I'm more disappointed than anything. You mentioned a diss record, I heard about the record last night. I ain't heard it yet, but I heard about the record last night — nobody understand why he doing it. To me, at the end of the day I'm more disappointed in him than anything because I looked at him different. What I perceived of him is not what he playing now — I thought you was a straight up, stand-up guy. Street type dude and street dudes don't handle business like that." (K97.1)
Gucci has since spoken out and defended his issues with Gotti.
"My main problem with him is that he dropped his mixtape on 10/17 and tried to ride my wave like he's an artist of mine or we get some kinda money together," Gucci said. "Why would you drop it if you ain't on 1017 and when I call you as my partner to ask you why you did it, you say, 'Oh, I didn't know you were droppin' a mixtape'? … It just made me lose all respect for him instantly." (Hot 107.9)
Last month, fellow Atlanta rapper Yung Joc questioned his publicized campaign against various hip-hop artists.
"We ain't got to throw hints, the homie Gucci, sounded like he dissed me, which he did, but guess what? Listen to the name of the song, 'F the World,'" Joc said in an interview. "That's what he on right now. You see he going in at everybody neck but whatever. One thing you got to give Gucci credit for, man, the guy is a master at getting his name in your mouth. … He's learned how to do it, he's done it several times — you gotta salute that, whether you like it or not. I ain't tripping 'cause I know my financial status and situation. So it is what it is but I mean, you gotta love it." ("The Loud Pack Show")

Whole Foods butcher.
Today I went to the meat counter at Whole Foods Glendale, and they refused to cut a 2" steak for me saying they already had too much in the case. Maybe it's just me, but why have a butcher if you refuse to accommodate requests? Shouldn't they just cellophane wrap everything and call it a day? I can't remember a butcher ever flat out refusing a request.
It has been my experience that the butcher counter at Whole Foods Glendale is shockingly bad. They refused to remove a wishbone from a whole chicken for me, and on another occasion messed up a large order of skewers. It's a very silly place.
I hope you declined the pre-cut and went elsewhere. It's not like you were asking them to cut a piece to add to their display case....you were moving product out their door. Silly.
I will never forget the first and only time I bought a hamburger from Whole Foods Glendale.
The young girl began grilling my requested "medium rare" hamburger. Even though I protested she used her full body weight to press the juices out of the meat and severely over cooked the meat until it was a bone dry well done hamburger on a dusty bun. I almost protested to management that she ignored my pleas.
Never again.
At their prices, I ask myself if there are other alternatives. There are.
Whole Foods either is "ain't what it used to be", or it never was what we thought it was.
Did the cashier also refuse to ring up your order because it would mean refilling the receipt cartridge?
re: andytseng
Not been to Glendale, but I'll second the motion on Pasadena. At both I've had butchers go out of their way to answer questions about special orders. Another thing: you always read or hear about how expensive they are, but fresh boned lamb shoulder there is CHEAPER than the frozen ones from China at Hawaii Supermarket. Nice to remember if you suddenly decide you want lamb stew that night!
re: Will Owen
Actually, I have never had a butcher refuse a simple request anywhere. Even at Ralph's, ring the bell and they will accommodate. The Whole Foods Pasadena has been good every time I have been there (although they didn't know what Piedmont beef was.) This is the second time that I have had an off experience at the Glendale location. If I had more time, I would go to McCalls in Los Feliz more.
(nice one Ipsedixit)
i have a friend who lives right near the Glendale WF but travels all the way to the one in Pasadena simply b/c the butchers at Glendale sucks. I second Mcalls if it's not out of the way.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"Excellent quality! These turned out so well. I would definitely order these again, but for a different occasion this time. ;)"
"The customization of my invites and response cards took a little bit of time, but the design experts got back to me quickly and the process was fun and painless. I am very happy with my results. The paper quality was exactly what I wanted. I would suggest ordering samples before hand so you can get an idea of what paper you like best and to see what the invite with look like as well."
"I LOVED everything about these invites! They are just as beautiful in person as they are online. Wonderful paper quality. The customer service I received was AMAZING. I asked 100 questions through their chat line and email. Every time I heard back very promptly, with answers that fulfilled every question. The shipping was incredibly fast and I am already getting comments on how pretty they are from my guests! Big win for me with these!!"
"I uploaded my design and they helped fit it within the paper without making it feel cramped. The quality was very good. The bride that I designed it for loved them and was very satisfied. Shipping was very quick."
"This card came out so beautiful that I was told by people they are keeping simply bc it's too gorgeous to put away or recycle! We used this card for our invitation to our 10th Anniversary. Bc I do not like to "waste paper", I was able to use the back for all the important info instead of an enclosure card. The designers are WPD were awesome! they arranged it all for me seamlessly. Service was extremely fast when we went back and forth on changes and edits. I highly recommend this card and especially his company! (I've used them 3x now!)"

[Blind Gossip] This actor is best known for his starring role in a hit movie from the 1980s that you and your kids have probably watched many times. He was a teenager back then, and rather cute.
Now he is a middle-aged man, acting in bit parts in TV shows and films, picking up on young girls at conventions and autograph signings… and then hunting them down on the Internet!
It all starts out innocently enough, where he flatters you and acts coy. But once he knows your name, he will relentlessly stalk you on social media, sending dozens of messages to your Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram accounts, telling you that he know everything about you, everywhere you go, everything you do, and everyone you know.
It's downright creepy. Sort of like his one big movie. Perhaps he acts this way because his live-in girlfriend fed him after midnight?
His one big movie:

SAID AL SIAH, Libya — Water is in short supply in Tripoli, Libya's newly liberated capital. The massive storage tank, part of the network that supplies water to the capital from a huge underground aquifer in southern Libya, is nearly empty.
And this storage facility lies 25 miles south of Tripoli. The real problem, say rebel leaders, lies much farther away, in Hasouna, 400 miles to the south, which forces loyal to Moammar Gadhafi still control. They have turned off the tap, not just to Tripoli but to many of Libya's cities.
As water lines run dry and prices for bottled water skyrocket, Tripoli's burgeoning water crisis reveals the limitations of the rebel leadership, which still must consolidate its control over vast parts of the country even as it tries to exert its authority over a shortage- plagued capital.
While Tripoli has been mostly cleared of serious pro-Kha dafy resistance, much of the country to the south lies outside rebel control, and that means that not just water supplies but also refineries and oil fields have yet to be secured.
Fakher Badr, a member of the rebel National Transitional Council's stabilization team in Tripoli, said he knew of no plans for securing southern oil and water facilities.

'No stone unturned' to find North Conway teen missing since Wednesday
New Hampshire Associate Attorney General Jane Young, in a news conference Friday night outside the Conway Police Department, emphasized the search for 15-year-old Abigail Hernandez remains a missing person case. Today is her birthday.
While the case is categorized as a missing person investigation, when asked if the possibility of foul play had been ruled out Young admitted, "Nothing has been ruled out at this point."
"Every one of them is evaluated and followed up," said Ramsey. "No tip is too small or insufficient."
On Friday, investigators were stopping cars along North South Road in Conway, handing out posters with information about the missing teen to drivers.
The FBI has brought in investigators from as far away as Virginia to assist in the search.
"Abby, if you are out there and hear this message, please call the police department, your family or friends so we can conclude this investigation and have you safely return," he said.

Choose from twelve street fighters from around the world, skilled in a variety of martial arts -- for instance, a character named E.Honda is a sumo wrestler from Japan, while Ken is a master of Tae Kwon Do from the United States. Journey to different countries to defeat other fighters, eventually leading up to a battle with evil man M.Bison. Besides the standard punches and kicks, each character can also execute special moves, such as energy projectiles or lightning-fast kicks, for more damage or to create a chain of hit combos.
This home version is a re-release of the original Street Fighter 2 game with several major improvements: the 'boss' characters (Vega, Balrog, Sagat, and M. Bison) are automatically unlocked for you to play, each character receives some new or upgraded moves and costume colors, and you can select a Turbo speed level which lets you play at a faster speed. It is based on the arcade re-release by the same name which also contained the subtitle "Hyper Fighting."

November 23, 2014
SCIOTO COUNTY, Ohio (WSAZ) -- Five people have been arrested in connection with a break-in at a business in Franklin Furnace, where several large items were stolen.
The Scioto County Sheriff's Office says on July 21, the Pepsi Plant on Gallia Pike was broken into. A lawnmower, hedge trimmer, power washer and Pepsi products were stolen.
The Sheriff's Office continued to investigate this case and were led to a mobile home on Walburn Avenue in Franklin Furnace.
After several hours of trying to get into the home, two women answered the door, and Timothy Stapleton, 26, of Franklin Furnace, was found hiding in a small space that the water heater was stored in. Stapleton had got inside and a wall was placed in front of him and screwed into the wall of the closet.
Deputies say during the investigation, they were able to recover some stolen property from several cases around the area, including a computer, iPad, and 4-wheeler.
Stapleton is charged with one count of breaking and entering and one count of obstructing justice. He's being held on a $5,000 bond.
Danielle Caldwell, 18, of Franklin Furnace, is charged with one count of obstructing justice and being held on $2,500 bond.
Dreama Stapleton, 28, of Franklin Furnace, was arrested on a fugitive from justice warrant out of Kentucky. She is being held without bond.
Matthew Steele, 36, of Franklin Furnace, was charged with tampering with evidence and is being held without bond on a parole holder.
Cody Stevens was already in jail on other charges. He is also charged with one count of breaking and entering and is being held without bond.
More charges could be filed.

All Blacks and Springboks renew fierce rivalry
ESPN Staff
September 10, 2012
Springbok scrum-half Ricky Januarie is congratulated after sealing victory for his side on their last visit to Dunedin in 2008 © Getty Images
New Zealand will renew their rivalry with old foes South Africa at Dunedin's Forsyth Barr Stadium on Saturday night.
These two sides have met on 83 previous occasions dating back to the All Blacks' 13-5 victory in their first Test clash in Dunedin in 1921. New Zealand hold the all-time advantage with 46 victories but the Springboks won their most recent encounter with an 18-5 triumph on the eve of last year's Rugby World Cup that brought an end to four successive defeats.
However, perhaps their most famous clash came in the final of the 1995 Rugby World Cup where hosts South Africa claimed a 15-12 success at Ellis Park and with it the sport's biggest prize for the first time.
This weekend's game will be South Africa's first visit to the Forsyth Barr Stadium with all their previous visits to the city centring on Carisbrook where they won on their most recent visit but lost on the seven occasions that preceded that memorable victory.

text: aaceInternational Alaska Section June 2008 Excel Tips and Tricks for Project Controls Sean Robbins PMP, PSP NANA/Colt Engineering, LLC Outline 1. Learning Excel and finding reference materials 2. Helpful project controls formulas 3. Pivot tables 4. Project controls pivot table examples 5. Spreadsheet documentation 1. Learning Excel and finding reference materials Learning Methods and References • Courses, seminars, presentations, books, videos, online, peers • Broad versus detailed • Present Excel's capabilities in an organized manner • Applying the capabilities to actual situations • Leave you with an indexed ―instruction manual‖, to look up things like syntax and limitations 1. Learning Excel and finding reference materials Books • Want ones that will explain the functions, how to actually apply and combine them, as well as serve as reference • My favorites – ―Formulas and Functions with Microsoft Excel 2003‖, by Paul McFedries – ―Pivot Table Data Crunching‖ by Bill Jelen and Michael Alexander 1. Learning Excel and finding reference materials Websites • There's a surprising amount of Excel training information and tips out there • University .edu often good for basic function/module tutorials • Excel consultants often have forums where practitioners share solutions to complex problems. www.mrexcel.com and www.ozgrid.com are among the better ones • Microsoft has online help, and some short videos. OK for things like formula syntax 2. Helpful project controls formulas Overview A. Zero suppression B. Error suppression C. Formatting numbers as $K and $MM D. Breaking out parts of coded activity numbers or WBS into their components E. Primavera data A. Stripping ―h‖s or ―d‖s out of durations and/or units B. Removing actualize ―A‖s from dates 2. Helpful project controls formulas Zero Suppression • Clean up reports to only show actual (<>0) values • Apply to entire worksheet: Tools > Options > View > uncheck ―zero values‖ • Conditional formula =if(old_formula=0,‖‖,old_formula) (where old_formula is the original formula in that cell) • Custom cell formatting: Find one that works, and append with ;#;. Then use format painter to apply this rule down the rest of the column or row. 2. Helpful project controls formulas Error Suppression • #DIV/0, #N/A, #VALUE, #REF, etc. • Clutter up report, and can't be summed • Pinpoint the problem versus general approach – Pinpoint for DIV/O =IF(B3=0,‖‖,A3/B3) – Broad =IF(ISERROR(old_formula),‖‖,old_formula) 2. Helpful project controls formulas $K or $MM Format • Useful in graphs or high-level reports • Custom format – $K: $#,###.##,K – $MM: $#,###.##,,‖MM‖ • $ - start with a dollar sign • #,### - show thousands commas • .## - the number of decimal places you want to show (optional) • , round to nearest thousand, vs. ,, round to nearest million • ―MM‖-has to be in quotes, otherwise the format thinks you are talking about months. 2. Helpful project controls formulas Parts of a String • 123.ABC.45.6789 in cell A3 • With letters and/or multiple decimal points, Excel considers this to be TEXT, so you have to use text functions. • To retrieve the 123 = left (A3,3) • To retrieve the ABC =mid(A3,5,3) – Where are starting at the beginning of the 5th character, and taking following 3 • To retrieve the 6789 = right(A3,4) • Even though these appear to be numbers, Excel still considers them to be text at this point. 2. Helpful project controls formulas Letters in Primavera Durations / Units – Substitute Option • Schedulers—Edit > User Preferences > Time Units tab > uncheck ―Show Unit Label‖ for units format and durations format before exporting to Excel! • =Value(Substitute(A3, ‖h‖,‖‖)) – Take the value in cell A3, and substitute nothing (note, not a space) for every occurrence of h (note-as a piece of text, needs to be in quotes) – Value: Coverts something previously stored as text into a number, so you can now use it in calculations. • Limitation-this formula needs to be tweaked if you switch units between hours and days, for example 2. Helpful project controls formulas Letters in Primavera Durations / Units – Left/Length Option • The end result is the left few characters of the cell, but we don't necessarily know how many characters • =value(LEFT(A3,len(A3)-1)) – We start by determining the length (LEN) of cell A3. Once we have that, we take the left-most one less than the total length (to trim off the h) characters, and then determine the value of that • This formula will work as-is regardless of unit descriptor (h versus d, for example), as long as the unit designator is a single character 2. Helpful project controls formulas Trimming Actual ―A‖s off Primavera Dates • Date string lengths might be different (depending on whether leading zeroes are specified or not), and not all dates are actualized • =value(if(RIGHT(A3,1)=―A‖,LEFT(A3,len(A3)-2),A3)) – If A3 ends in an A, give me all but the last two characters (for the space and the A), otherwise just give me A3, – and then determine the value of whichever of those two options gets selected 3. Pivot Tables Pivot Table Intro • Ideal for: – Large data sets (up to 65,531 lines of data) – Ad-hoc queries, where you're not really sure how you want to present the data. Pivot tables are flexible – Periodic reports. You set up one pivot table, which you can then can re-use it again and again just by pasting in the new data, and hitting recalculate! – Ranking, grouping, filtering, and sorting data – Reformatting or ―prettying up‖ data – Where you need to be able to drill down see the underlying data 3. Pivot Tables Two Sheet Solution • Using a ―one sheet solution‖, you would be doing things like moving and hiding columns, filtering data, and applying formatting one line at a time. These steps are not required when using pivot tables • In pivot tables, you typically have one worksheet for your raw data, and then another one for your finished product—the pivot table report or graph • Since raw data is hidden from the end-user of the finished product, you can add columns of conditional data to automate your sort results, for example 3. Pivot Tables Two Sheet Solution • One data sheet can feed many reports. Thus, you can have one pivot table report preset for each filtering or arrangement of the data, so you only have to recalculate once Raw Data Raw Data Finished Report Finished Report 1 Finished Report 2 (pivot report) (pivot report) (pivot report) 3. Pivot Tables Pivot Table Raw Data Requirements—What you DON'T Have to Worry About • Sort order • Column order • Number format (for example, if some records display $, and some don't) • Deleting irrelevant data (you can get the pivot table to ignore or filter it out) 3. Pivot Tables Raw Data Requirements • Records (data points) in rows, categories in columns • Each column name must be unique, and single-cell. • If you are re-using a pivot table, column order and names you are using must be consistent between data dumps • When setting up, data set must be contiguous (no empty columns or rows between portions of data) • Flat instead of hierarchical data—meaning that rows must contain all relevant data 3. Pivot Tables Hierarchical Data Example • Excel will interpret the second line as representing: – For project N/A, employee number N/A, last name N/A, first name N/A, worked 3 hours on 17 Jun Project Empl Num Last First Date Hours Proj A 12345 Doe John 16-Jun 5 17-Jun 3 18-Jun 6 20-Jun 8 45678 Smith Ann 17-Jun 2 18-Jun 7 19-Jun 5 Proj B 12345 Doe John 16-Jun 2 17-Jun 4 19-Jun 7 3. Pivot Tables Flattening Hierarchical Data • Out of Primavera, create unique pivot-table-feeding layouts, with consistent column order. Leave the data ungrouped, and instead have a column for the factor(s) you were planning on grouping it by. Filtering is optional • For pre-formatted hierarchical data, such as out of a cost system, have calculated columns in the raw data tab which read out of the raw data pasted to their left and duplicate them in a flat manner • You only have to flatten the hierarchical columns you plan to use in your chart or table • Give this calculated column unique name, which you can keep straight from the hierarchical one. For example, preface with Z 3. Pivot Tables Flattening Hierarchical Data A B C D E F G H I 1 Zproj Zlast Zfirst Project Empl Num Last First Date Hours 2 Proj A 12345 Doe John 16-Jun 5 3 17-Jun 3 4 18-Jun 6 5 20-Jun 8 6 45678 Smith Ann 17-Jun 2 7 18-Jun 7 8 19-Jun 5 9 Proj B 12345 Doe John 16-Jun 2 10 17-Jun 4 11 19-Jun 7 3. Pivot Tables Flattening Formula • Take hierarchical data in column D, which we are going to flatten in column A • Formula for A2: =if(isblank(D2),A1,D2) --and paste this down column A – What this formula does in column A is repeat the cell above unless we have a (new) value in the corresponding cell in column D, at which point if takes the D value instead • Give column A a distinct name from column D • Make as many ―flattening columns‖ as required to generate your reports and/or graphs • Tip—shade these calculated columns, so that you don't erase or paste over them 3. Pivot Tables Flattened Hierarchical Data • Data from the green columns (D, F, and G) was used to populate the pink columns (A-C). In our pivot table, we will use the pink columns in place of the green ones. • We are not going to use column E, so we can ignore it (no need to either delete or flatten it). • Data in columns H and I is already flat A B C D E F G H I 1 Zproj Zlast Zfirst Project Empl Num Last First Date Hours 2 Proj A Doe John Proj A 12345 Doe John 16-Jun 5 3 Proj A Doe John 17-Jun 3 4 Proj A Doe John 18-Jun 6 5 Proj A Doe John 20-Jun 8 6 Proj A Smith Ann 45678 Smith Ann 17-Jun 2 7 Proj A Smith Ann 18-Jun 7 8 Proj A Smith Ann 19-Jun 5 9 Proj B Doe John Proj B 12345 Doe John 16-Jun 2 10 Proj B Doe John 17-Jun 4 11 Proj B Doe John 19-Jun 7 3. Pivot Tables Running the Pivot Table Wizard • Data > PivotTable and PivotChart menu • Step 1: Accept the defaults and click NEXT • Step 2: Edit the range as required. If you plan on reusing this table with future data, set the end row number high; although you can edit the range at a later date. Then click NEXT. • Step 3: Where to put the new pivot table. Normally, the default (in a new worksheet) is fine. 3. Pivot Tables Running the Pivot Table Wizard Drag and Fields you want to filter with (optional) drop fields into the right Field(s) you want to display as columns section Row fields Data 3. Pivot Tables Pivot Table Wizard Menu Bar • If you're going to be using pivot tables frequently, I highly recommend adding the pivot table group to your to menu • Right-click in top menu bar > check Pivot Table 3. Pivot Tables Pivot Table Annoyances Problem Workaround Pivot tables are large (often into Give end users printout or static the 10's of MB) copies (using paste special) Data fields often default to Only have to reset once ―Count‖, rather than ―Sum‖ Row groups default to subtotaling Only have to turn off once for each You can't edit within pivot table Make your edits on a static copy fields Percentages from data tab don't Calculate percentages from pivot sum properly fields 4.
