Red Hat, Inc., has announced the Premier Cloud Provider Certification and Partner Program, designed to simplify and expand the adoption of cloud computing by enterprise customers. The program enables industry leaders in cloud computing to become certified to offer Red Hat technology solutions. Premier Cloud Provider Partners will collaborate with Red Hat on technical support, security updates, hardware certification, sales and marketing and business models. As part of the announcement, cloud computing pioneer Amazon Web Services will extend its technology relationship with Red Hat to become the first Red Hat Premier Cloud Provider Partner.
The Red Hat Premier Cloud Provider Program has been established to address the increased interest in cloud computing from Red Hat customers, both in building virtualized internal infrastructure systems and extending their applications into the clouds. Red Hat customers seek the flexibility to transfer and use Red Hat subscriptions on premise and/or in cloud environments, with support and compatibility. Red Hat customers have also requested the ability to rent elastic computing by-the-hour with access to consistent, technical support, security updates and compatibility with existing IT resources. This program aims to provide more flexibility for Red Hat customers when developing and deploying their applications.
In addition to customers, Red Hat has witnessed growing ISV partner interest in providing cloud offerings based on their applications certified on Red Hat Enterprise Linux and/or JBoss Enterprise Middleware. As part of its new program, Red Hat will work with customers to identify secure, optimized and supported cloud providers, and will work with ISVs to help enable delivery of cloud offerings with an on-ramp program that spans technology, business and support models.
"A robust ecosystem of solutions providers is emerging around cloud computing," said Mike Evans, vice president, Corporate Development at Red Hat. "We believe Red Hat's consistent dedication to open source and open standards will further the success of a strong cloud ecosystem. By bringing together thousands of Red Hat-certified applications, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, JBoss Enterprise Middleware and Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization we aim to deliver the next generation of computing architectures, today."
Building on the experience of delivering the first supported operating system and first supported middleware offering for Amazon Web Services, Red Hat is now growing its relationship by choosing Amazon Web Services as the first member of the Premier Cloud Provider Program.

Some developers believe that monitoring is a function of the operations team. Some operations teams firmly believe that monitoring the systems they maintain is sufficient to run the business successfully. Most of them are wrong. The complexity of today's applications have gone far and beyond the capabilities of "traditional" system-level monitoring tools and approaches and requires much broader knowledge of business and applications as a whole. The goal of DevOps is to connect all aspects of app...

When an enterprise builds a hybrid IaaS cloud connecting its data center to one or more public clouds, security is often a major topic along with the other challenges involved. Security is closely intertwined with the networking choices made for the hybrid cloud. Traditional networking approaches for building a hybrid cloud try to kludge together the enterprise infrastructure with the public cloud. Consequently this approach requires risky, deep "surgery" including changes to firewalls, subnets...

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happe...

President Obama, with House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) behind him, delivering his State of the Union address last January.
As the end-of-year tax increases and spending cuts known as the "fiscal cliff" near, "Democrats are in a strong position with the public," the Pew Research Center reports.
A new national poll Pew released this morning shows that:
— "When it comes to the reaching an agreement to avoid the fiscal cliff, 55% say Obama is making a serious effort to work with Republicans. But just 32% say Republican leaders are making a serious effort to work with Obama on a deficit deal."
— President Obama's "first post-reelection job approval rating has risen to 55%, up five points since July and 11 points since the start of the year. Obama's job rating is markedly higher than George W. Bush's first job measure (48%) after he won reelection in 2004."
— "By a 53% to 33% margin, the public sees the Republican Party, rather than the Democratic Party, as 'more extreme in its positions.' Democrats, on the other hand, are seen as "more willing to work with leaders from the other party" by roughly two-to-one (53% vs. 27%)."
The national survey of 1,503 adults was conducted Dec. 5-9. Pew says that "900 respondents were interviewed on a landline telephone, and 603 were interviewed on a cell phone, including 300 who had no landline telephone." The margin of error on results from the full survey is +/- 2.9 percentage points.
The results echo those of a survey Pew did for The Washington Post in late November and earlier in December. In that poll, 53 percent of those surveyed said Republicans would be "more to blame" if there's no agreement reached to avoid going over the so-called cliff. Twenty-nine percent said Obama would be to blame.
Andrew Kohut, president of the Pew Research Center, is due to speak with All Things Considered this afternoon about the latest poll results. We'll add the broadcast-version of that conversation to the top of this post later. Click here to find an NPR station that broadcasts or streams the show.

Not many people were suspicious of Big Man on day 1 so they probably didn't think there was much of a risk in him being tracked or being caught with a role that could bring two scum down with him. I feel like you're reaching big time, here.
It looks like we're in fact dealing with just one scum group so I'm guessing they're pretty large and powerful. Plus it doesn't make sense to give a scum team a role like that where they can't use solely on their team.
The point I am trying to make, is that it would be reckless and terrible risk control for Big to protect two of his teammates. A tracker, a JOAT or any sort of variation (Mikey?) could quite easily have targetted him and there is possibly half of the scum team gone. In relation to me being too good to keep alive, that could also be an excuse for him to try and frame me. Fuck, I know I'm reaching, but really one of these explanations or once I've already made has to be the case. I have been extremely pro town this game too..

Putting words in my mouth here Christo, I've tried explaining this to you a number of times now. Also, in case you haven't been paying attention in any other games I've played, I am not afraid to stick up for someone I think is town, regardless of if it makes me look scummy. In the same vein, I am not one to put my ass on the line for a scummate, much like nearly everyone else on this site. Think.

Would say Scrilla is just trying to get you lynched/vigged as one last effort before he dies, still, why didn't you ask for a Tracker to follow you tonight. That would make more sense and be able to confirm you, right?

Below are the available bulk discount rates for each individual item when you purchase a certain amount
Handmade premium Maduro Torpedo cigars by Tony Alvarez are aged and have a nice medium bodied taste. The wrapper is an exquisite Maduro sun-grown habano tobacco leaf. The binder and pure long fillers are finely cured Cuban-seed habano. This combination provides a creamy with well balanced and complex earthy, cocoa & woody taste. It has sweet notes of nuts and finishes with a mild chocolate undertone.
Tony has been making fine cigars for years and these prove his talents. Read about his history and accomplishments below. He personally supervises each roller in the creation of these torpedo cigars, and some of the cigars are even made by the man himself. Each Habano Torpedo cigar is 6 inches long with a ring gauge of 52. 25 cigars are hand packed in a cellophane bundle. At these prices it is like buying the cigars wholesale. Quantities of these Maduro torpedos are limited so get them at these wholesale prices now.
Tony Alvarez is a Cuban Master cigar maker. He grew tobacco and hand rolled perfect cigars in Cuba for Monte Cristo, Romeo y Julieta and Cohiba. He then fled Cuba and while in Miami, Florida rolled for Don Tito, La Gloria Cubana and eventually started CAONAO cigars with his partners. Tony knows cigars so he sold his interest in that company and went to Esteli, Nicaragua to open his own small factory.
His cigars are all totally made by hand, and many he makes himself. He only uses the best wrappers, binders and fillers to make these torpedo cigars. As in the traditional cuban cigar factory, cigars do not leave his factory until he personally inspects them. They are all top premium cigars. That is the only way that Tony knows how to make them.
MEDIUM-BODIED. Creamy with well balanced and complex earthy, cocoa & woody tastes. It has sweet notes of nuts and finishes with a mild chocolate undertone.

wonderful full bodied smoke
Posted by Panther Melbourne Australia on 28th Aug 2014
Great looking Cigar and the aroma pre-lighting was just amazing. The cut and purge absolutely perfect; And I loved the wrapper and wrapper colour which to be honest is just the way I like my Cigars. There were a few veins showing running through the wrapper but I think that adds to the character of this Cigar. I make a rule never to mention flavours because flavour is a personal thing, but I found a very enjoyable sense of spicy pepper that was extremely enjoyable. The light, burn and draw excellent and burn even throughout the smoke. I bought a pack to try and the aroma in the humidor was very pleasant and I have now moved to an ageing humidor for twelve months as I believe these Cigars will improve greatly in aroma and flavour with age. In summary I enjoyed these Cigars immensely and I had a lot of fun chatting and relighting this Cigar whilst going about my day. Tony Alvarez is now on my regular shopping list. I want to try the 7 x 58 on my next order.

really good smoke, I thought they were going to be too tightly rolled but smoke perfect and are just getting better in my humidor, and I am sure when they are gone I will be looking for more

Great medium bodied cigar with a even burn and easy draw.
Posted by Freebase on 15th Mar 2013
This is a very good cigar. Compared to others i have tried, this stands out. Amongst other non-banded maduro cigars, this is class. Sweet, smooth it effortlessly filters the (acrid) raw smoke. Tight, but not too tightly bound; just right. Its one of those where you know you've only got a few left, and when they're all gone, you will be looking for "the last one". Will buy again

While doing an interview in Boston recently, Hulk Hogan was asked about Slammiversary 2014. He essentially sidestepped the topic, even though he could have simply provided a couple of commentary on the event since he did work for TNA at one point in time. This has led to some speculations that he is not allowed to talk about other companies now that he is under contract to WWE.
June 26, 2014
When TNA announced at Slammiversary 2014 that Devon and Bully Ray were going to be inducted into the hall of fame, it led to a lot of speculation about the status of Devon with the company. It looks like the former television champion is making a return to TNA, as his profile has been restored on the official roster page on their website.
June 17, 2014
The decision to invite members of the Dallas Cowboys to Slammiversary 2014 proved to be quite an effective marketing move, as TNA was able to garner some mainstream media coverage from George Selvie being involved in a segment with James Storm and Mr Anderson. Among those that covered the incident were Dallas Morning News, TMZ, Fox Sports, CBS and a variety of local affiliates.
June 16, 2014
In a sign that the family still has some name value in the Dallas area, Kevin Von Erich is already paying off for TNA, as ticket sales for Slammiversary 2014 was said to have received a spike shortly after Dixie Carter announced that the legendary WCCW star was going to be involved. In return, the company is giving national exposure to his sons Ross Von Erich and Marshall Von Erich.
June 13, 2014
Since MVP has a badly injured knee, TNA decided to change up the main event of Slammiversary 2014. Eric Young will still be defending the world heavyweight championship in a steel cage at the event, but he's now going to be doing so against two opponents. The winners of the respective matches between Samoa Joe, Bobby Lashley, Kenny King and Austin Aries will be challenging Young for the belt.
June 13, 2014
Thus far, the TNA Hall of Fame consists of Sting and Kurt Angle, two of the more prolific performers in the history of the industry. A third member is set to join them. At Slammiversary 2014, Angle will be on hand to announce who the latest inductee will be. No official word on who the third person was going to be, but there are heavy rumors that Jeff Jarrett could be inducted as part of his departure agreement with TNA.
June 11, 2014
During a recent podcast interview with Chris Jericho, MVP revealed that he was going to try to fight through the knee injury and work Slammiversary 2014. The former United States Heavyweight Champion is scheduled to challenge Eric Young for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship at the pay per view. Management is still working on a backup plan in case his knee does not hold up, however.
June 11, 2014
Since Ross Von Erich and Marshall Von Erich are working a match at Slammiversary 2014, there have been a lot of rumors floating around that the sons of Kevin Von Erich are going to be signed to a contract with TNA. However, there are reports surfacing that the company is basically doing this as a one shot deal. TNA gains additional exposure since the Von Erich name is still beloved in Dallas, while the brothers are given a chance to be introduced to fans in the United States.
June 8, 2014
As of right now, TNA has not announced the opponents for Ross Von Erich and Marshall Von Erich, the sons of Texas legend Kevin Von Erich, at Slammiversary 2014. Some rumors are floating around that they might be paired up with excellent ring workers in Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards, but others believe that they will be working against a heel tandem in order to generate a good reaction in front of their hometown fans in Dallas.
June 7, 2014
In the storyline, Bobby Roode is serving a suspension from Impact Wrestling because he confronted MVP, who recently turned heel. Apparently, that suspension could be ending soon, as the longtime TNA star is being advertised for Slammiversary 2014 weekend. He does not have a match, but there is a very good chance that he could be making his on screen return that evening.
June 3, 2014
Slammiversary 2014 takes place later on this month, and the main event might be in jeopardy. Originally, Eric Young was scheduled to defend the TNA World Heavyweight Championship against MVP, but the challenger suffered some sort of knee injury while working an independent wrestling show in England over the weekend. No word yet on the severity of the injury, but MVP was limping pretty badly.
June 1, 2014
During a recent interview to promote his upcoming appearance at Slammiversary 2014, Kevin Von Erich revealed to the Dallas News that he normally avoids traveling because of a bad back suffered from years of being an in ring performer. The Texas legend stated that he was willing to travel from his home in Hawaii to the TNA pay per view because he wants to see his son performing on a national stage.
June 1, 2014
In a rather interesting move, Kevin Von Erich has been booked for Slammiversary 2014. The WCCW legend will be on hand to watch his sons, Marshall and Ross, wrestling on the TNA pay per view. The third generation stars have been wrestling over in Japan, gaining some much needed seasoning and experience before attempting to make their way to the United States.
May 29, 2014
For those of you that do not watch Impact Wrestling on a regular basis, MVP has done a heel turn. The former United States Heavyweight Champion has also given himself a shot at Eric Young and the TNA World Heavyweight Championship at Slammiversary 2014 as well. Management pulled the trigger on the move, as they feel that MVP could be more valuable as an antagonist.
May 9, 2014
A new Slammiversary 2014 poster has been released. This time, new TNA World Heavyweight CHampion Eric Young is featured instead of Brutus Magnus.
May 3, 2014
A picture of the official Slammiversary 2014 poster, which features Brutus Magnus as the centerpiece attraction. Behind him are Bobby Roode, Jeff Hardy, MVP and Kurt Angle, which has led to speculations that TNA could be doing a big world heavyweight championship match featuring all five of the performers.
March 26, 2014
Earlier this month, it was revealed that Slammiversary 2014 is being held in the Dallas area this year. Dixie Carter and her staff are a bit concerned about that choice now, as the more popular WWE recently was only able to draw in 5000 fans to a live event in the city last weekend. Interest in wrestling might just be low in that area.
March 21, 2014
The location of Slammiversary 2014 has now been revealed. Dixie Carter and company will be hosting the pay per view in Dallas this year. It will be held at the College Park Center at the University of Texas at Arlington. The venue is just two years old and holds approximately 7000 people. The show takes place on June 15.
March 6, 2014
A lot of action took place in the main event of Money in the Bank 2014. Fans went crazy as they saw creative signature spots from Randy Orton, Sheamus, John Cena, Roman Reigns, Alberto Del Rio, Kane and Bray Wyatt. However, it was Cena, much to the dismay of online WWE fans, who climbed the ladder and captured the heavyweight championship.
June 29, 2014
To calm down the Money in the Bank 2014 audience, WWE opted to go with another divas match as a filler. Layla El and Summer Rae battled in a match, where Fandango served as the special guest referee. Fans were so disinterested in the segment that a CM Punk chant broke out. In the end, Layla caught Summer with a kick to gain the pinfall. Layla and Fandango kissed after the match, while a despondent Summer looked on.
June 29, 2014
In a rematch at Money in the Bank 2014, Alexander Rusev was successfully able to conquer Big E Langston again with his submission move. It was the typical match that you would expect from the two. There was a botched spot where Langston speared Rusev to the outside of the ring. However, the two of them more than made up for that by doing a great closing sequence.
June 29, 2014
In a match that was slightly held in higher regards than a filler match, Goldust and Cody Rhodes, who worked under his Stardust gimmick again, defeated Curtis Axel, who was sporting a ridiculous looking singlet, and Ryback. The match was designed to highlight the Stardust character. Since there was a little bit of action after the match, there is a chance that WWE could be continuing this feud.
June 29, 2014
In a very exciting match, Seth Rollins outlasted Dean Ambrose, Dolph Ziggler, Kofi Kingston, Rob Van Dam and Jack Swagger to capture the briefcase at Money in the Bank 2014. WWE wants to continue the war between Ambrose and the Authority, so they had Kane coming out and providing assistance to Rollins. Despite the heel tactic to win the match, the Rollins victory was actually cheered by a good amount of fans.
June 29, 2014
Since WWE needed a filler segment at Money in the Bank 2014 and wanted to showcase Adam Rose a little bit, he was given a quick match against Damien Sandow, who was dressed as Paul Revere. Match was not really all that noteworthy, and Rose got the win after hitting the Party Foul finishing move. This was a segment that belongs more on Monday Night Raw than a pay per view.
June 29, 2014
Naomi Knight was given a crack at the WWE Divas Championship at Money in the Bank 2014, but it was Paige that walked away as the reigning titleholder after a DDT and a pin. The match was designed to further the eventual split between Naomi and Cameron, who was at ringside and taking glee whenever her tag team partner was in peril against Paige.
June 29, 2014
Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso had their biggest challenge to date when Erick Rowan and Luke Harper challenged them for the WWE tag team championship at Money in the Bank 2014. The twin brothers delivered by retaining the belt. The Usos performed a double superplex on Rowan before finishing him off with consecutive flying splashes from the top rope.
June 29, 2014
In a rather surprising move, WWE had the Shield win convincingly against Evolution. Batista and Randy Orton were the first two performers to be eliminated from the main event match at Payback 2014, but both provided interference for Triple H after their eliminations. After taking a brutal beating, Roman Reigns picked up the win for his team. Many expected Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins to be eliminated during the match, but WWE opted to give them a dominant ending.
June 2, 2014
In a match designed to be the buffer between the two main event features at Payback 2014, Paige successfully defended the WWE Divas Championship against Alicia Fox via submission. Afterwards, Alicia continued her story line of going crazy whenever things do not go well for her. The audience reacted more to the post match antics than the actual match.
June 2, 2014
In a segment filled with plenty of interference from Jimmy Uso, Jey Uso, Luke Rowan and Erick Harper, John Cena was able to defeat Bray Wyatt in a Last Man Standing match at Payback 2014 after Cena put Wyatt through a big black box and covered him with an even heavier box. Rumors have it that WWE will be continuing this feud and something could trigger that on Monday Night Raw this week.
June 2, 2014
At Payback 2014, Wade Barrett successfully defended the WWE Intercontinental Championship against Rob Van Dam after picking up the pin fall victory, thanks to the Bull Hammer. The performers placed some doubt in that finish when it appeared that Barrett had injured his arm while smashing into the corner post after RVD ducked away from the move outside the ring.
June 1, 2014
In a glorified squash match at Payback 2014, Alexander Rusev defeated Big E Langston via submission to continue his push up the ladder in WWE. He was able to slap on the camel clutch after delivering a big kick to Langston. Afterwards, he held the submission move on for a short period of time before Lana instructs him to let go. Rusev should be placed into a new feud this week.
June 1, 2014
In a match designed by WWE to accelerate the split between the brothers, Curtis Axel and Ryback defeated Cody Rhodes and Goldust in the second match of Payback 2014. Ryback picked up the pin fall victory for his team after delivering the Shell Shock to Rhodes. Afterwards, Rhodes told Goldust that he needs to find a better tag team partner for himself.
June 1, 2014
Despite being in the airplane spin for quite a few rotations, Sheamus was able to capture the victory over Antonio Cesaro, who had Paul Heyman with him at ringside, at Payback 2014 by surprising his opponent with a small package. With the win, Sheamus retains the United States Heavyweight Championship and will more than likely be placed in another feud by WWE tomorrow.
June 1, 2014
In a match filled with quite a few over the top spots, Daniel Bryan successfully retained the WWE Championship by defeating Kane at Extreme Rules 2014. A running knee followed by a pin enabled Bryan to get the pin fall victory over Kane. Prior to that spot, Kane was put through a burning table and carried on a forklift, among other things.
May 4, 2014
Since WWE needed a Divas Championship match at Extreme Rules 2014, Paige was given the victory over Tamina Snuka after delivering her submission finisher. The segment was short and quick, providing only a couple of spots outside the ring. It basically served as a pay per view buffer between the steel cage match and the world title match.
May 4, 2014
After suffering a loss at the last pay per view, Bray Wyatt needed a victory over John Cena at Extreme Rules 2014, and he got just that. Wyatt received a heavy dose of interference from Luke Harper and Erick Rowan, but Cena still managed to overcome those odds. As Cena was walking out of the cage, a kid showed up and began singing, which provided enough distraction for Wyatt to hit his Sister Abigail finisher and walk out for the victory.
May 4, 2014
In the most anticipated match at Extreme Rules 2014, the Shield defeated Evolution. Roman Reigns picked up the pin fall victory over Batista after a Superman punch and a spear. Triple H, Randy Orton, Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose fought through the audience before Rollins took out all four of them by hurling himself from the elevated stands.
May 4, 2014
The first title change at Extreme Rules 2014 took place when Wade Barrett defeated Big E Langston to capture the WWE Intercontinental Championship. Barrett picked up the pin fall victory after delivering a running Bull Hammer finisher on Langston. A highlight of the pay per view was Langston spearing Barrett from the ring to the floor.

The capital replacement process in most hospitals today starts with the department managers submitting capital replacement requests and supporting justifications including maintenance history, manufacturer recommendations, financial projections, strategic and competitive market analysis, clinical need, physician input, etc.
These requests are vetted with the requests from all the various departments by a capital review committee or a board review process with the most warranted replacements that can be accommodated by the capital funds available being approved. Each request is often judged on its own merit.
In the end, healthcare executives can usually refer to reams of documentation supporting a capital replacement decision. Rarely can any documentation, or rationale, be found for not approving the regular replacement of a piece of equipment, but equipment can also fail and require emergency replacement (usually from contingency funds outside the capital budgeting process). We scrutinize every detail of what is to be replaced or bought, often giving little thought to what is being counted on to remain in the equipment inventory during the upcoming year.
Additionally, we have no means to gauge the appropriateness of selecting one item for replacement over another. There is no common denominator in all the reams of justifications by which we can compare one replacement with another.
As a result, there are many time bombs in hospitals in the form of obsolete, or even dangerous, equipment on the verge of failure that healthcare executives either are not aware of, or choose to overlook so as to be able to afford the latest high-tech gizmo.
Incorporating a dashboard in the overall capital planning and budgeting process provides many benefits for strategizing and tracking.
A dashboard that includes the status of all the equipment, using an objective replacement rating and scoring system, helps maintain visibility of the entire inventory including those items that may pose significant risk but never make it through the capital review process.
See sample dashboard
By using such a dashboard:
Additionally, the dashboard format can provide visualization of classes of equipment, equipment status, utilization, etc.
Dramatic capital efficiencies can be gained by the visibility afforded by the equipment status dashboard, including:
To sum up, a dashboard is an efficient method of analyzing many of the metrics that form the underpinnings of capital replacement decisions.

THIS SMELL. WOW. One of my all-time signature scents. I LOVE it especially in the hot sweaty summers it's so clean and refreshing. I always get compliments when I spray it. It smells like the classic, lovely fresh cotton/clean linen smell. It instantly makes me feel refreshed and confident. I love carrying it around in the travel size fragrance mist. I will re-purchase every time I run out!

I love fresh, clean scents and this is by far my most favorite BBW fragrance. I have this in the body mist. To me, it smells like clean laundry. I love the smell of this. It makes me feel happy whenever I smell it. There is a girl at my work that wears the lotion and I always tell her how good she smells. I need to get this in the lotion and body wash too so I can layer it with the body mist.

I like this scent. It's light, soft and fresh. If cotton had a smell, I imagine it to smell like this, because it just smells so nice and fresh. I like to use this as a room and bed spray, and also to spray on my clothes for that fresh laundry smell.

I have EDT, body mist and creamy shower of this fragrance line. It's a very fresh scent which make you feel better in hot summer days. Its base note is a very nice vanilla scent, very very soft. It's the scent of pureness, cleanness but not the scent of a laundry detergent or fabric softener. It would be unfair to describe this scent as a cheap room refreshener smell. I use it for me, sometimes for my bed garnets, even for the room because this smell helps me relax (kind of anti-stress smell) and I like to smell it.

[BATH & BODY WORKS SERIES #6] My nose is fine with this scent. Cant complain at all. Its my gorge that disagrees. About two seconds after I smell it, its a concentrated effort not to dry heave. Theres a sickly sweetness in the depths of this ostensibly fresh, outdoorsy fragrance that my system wants no part of. Before anyone asks, I cant remember if I had the same problem with Cotton Blossom, but I dont think I was ever in any special hurry to buy it.

I love the smell of laundry, so when I first smelled Sea Island Cotton I loved it and had to buy it. When I got home, I sprayed this on me since I never put any body mists or lotions on the day I go shopping for new fragarances. I put it on ny neck and wrists, like any other body mist, and put it away. Boy, did I make a mistake buying this product! The scent didn't smell like laundry anymore- it smelled like pine trees. The scent didn' stay any longer than ten minutes, either. It was the worst product I have ever gotten from them, and I won't be buying this again.

I think this is the best simple and inoffensive smell I've ever come across with. It does smell like clean laundry but with a dash of floral. It smells so simple and I swear I never thought the smell of fresh laundry could make me feel so feminine, calm and happy :)
I hope this never gets discontinued as I always want to have a bottle of this until I die. There are certain occasions or places when a simple and pleasant smell like this is all you should wear so as not to offend anyone.
My only complaint is longevity is pretty weak. It lasts only about an hour on me and I often find myself reapplying several times a day.

Posted Tuesday, March 26, 2013 --- 10:15 a.m.
MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- Gov. Scott Walker is writing a memoir titled "Unintimidated: A Governor's Story and a Nation's Challenge."
The Sentinel imprint of Penguin Group announced Tuesday that Walker is writing the book with Marc Thiessen, former chief speechwriter for President George W. Bush. The book is tentatively scheduled for release late this year.
The publishing company says in the announcement Walker will detail the reforms he enacted in Wisconsin, including stripping most public workers of nearly all their collective bargaining powers, a move that sparked historic protests at the state Capitol in Madison.
The book marks another attempt by Walker to raise his national profile. He has said running for president in 2016 is "an option."

How to bring focus, awareness, and judgment back to our multitasking lives.
Years before multitasking became a household word and a supposed badge of honor, a retired professor of theology, an acquaintance of mine, offered his opinion on the subject. Convinced of the folly and ultimate inefficiency of trying to do several things at once, he made a case for a more focused approach to life.
He said simply, "When you wash the dishes, wash the dishes."
That sage advice, applied to a multitude of situations, could fit neatly in the pages of Distracted, Maggie Jackson's persuasive warning about the long-term consequences of a lack of attention. Multitasking, she argues, stands as one symbol of lives that are increasingly fragmented, producing an attention-deficit culture.
Jackson's premise is simple: "The way we live is eroding our capacity for deep, sustained, perceptive attention – the building block of intimacy, wisdom, and cultural progress." This disintegration, she warns, "may come at great cost to ourselves and to society."
"Pay attention," we tell our children. Yet they continue to be lured by the siren call of high-tech temptations lurking at every turn.
The land of distraction, Jackson calls it. In a world filled with split screens and sound bites, time for reflection and focus is increasingly lost. Who can be surprised that TV viewers remember 10 percent fewer facts about a news story when a crawl clutters the screen?
Distraction also becomes the enemy of creativity. McThinking has its limits.
Other examples abound. Forty percent of those in Generation Y text message while driving. Students do homework as they watch TV, listen to iPods, and chat with friends on cellphones. At the same time, studies show that many high school students are unable to synthesize information or express complex thoughts.
Work gets fragmented as well. Workers typically change tasks every three minutes. Once distracted, they take about 25 minutes to return to an interrupted task. Interruptions eat up more than two hours of an average worker's day.
Families also pay a steep price. In half of American homes with children under 6, the television remains on all or most of the time. Under those circumstances, parent-child interactions decline by 25 percent, and children's play becomes abbreviated and less focused.

Thanks, Jerry Seinfeld

So glad to be back on this week!
We got recent news, updates and resources for you, plus:
What could be wrong with an adult publicly disclosing how he identifies?
Sharing some personal insight, Jerry Seinfeld recently revealed in an interview that he thinks he is probably on the spectrum. And the autism community reacted. The positive, welcoming responses came out in spades from many autistic advocates, while some complained that he is "too successful" to really be autistic. And it dodn't stop there.
Bath and Body Works has been a successful business, but is experiencing backlash after several of its stores reportedly told people with disabilities to get out, or were blocked from coming in at all.

He is known as 'The Killer,' and he changed music as we know it. His name: Jerry Lee Lewis. In a special edition of The Halli Casser-Jayne Show, Sunday, October 26, 8 pm ET we will take a look at the life and times of Jerry Lee Lewis. Joining Halli at her table is one of the great Southern storytellers of our time, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and New York Times bestselling author Rick Bragg, whose new book JERRY LEE LEWIS, HIS OWN STORY officially launches October 28.
Interviewing the seminal musician over the course of two summers, Bragg recreates the almost impossible to believe story of the hell-raising Southern boy who would galvanize the world and give the devil's edge to rock and roll with songs like "Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On" and "Great Balls of Fire." Together Bragg and Lewis have created an amazing biography of the music legend: JERRY LEE LEWIS: HIS OWN STORY for this groundbreaking new book.
Bragg is the author of the New York Times bestsellers ALL OVER BUT THE SHOUTIN', AVA'S MAN, THE PRINCE OF FROGTOWN, and I AM A SOLDIER, TOO: THE JESSICA LYNCH STORY. He has twice won the prestigious American Society of Newspaper Editors Distinguished Writing Award and more than fifty writing awards in his career. He is currently a professor of writing at the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa.
Jerry Lee Lewis helped define the wild frontier of rock and roll. His most recent albums, Last Man Standing (2006) and Mean Old Man (2010), were his most successful in thirty years. Still performing today, The Killer recently opened Jerry Lee Lewis's Cafe and Honky Tonk on Beale Street in Memphis, Tennessee.

Marco Maccioni assures Elissa Elan that she neednt fret over Le Cirques offloading of big-ticket wines: The wine auction was organized quite a few months ago, before this economic hurricane even started. We literally wanted to clear out the excess stock of our big, granddaddy wines. People are still drinking them; theyre just drinking a little less of them. The money will go back into the wine list, toward boutique producers. Meanwhile, Sirio tells the Post that the hunt for Christophe Bellancas replacement is going well: I've already had calls from three or four very good names.

Women demand equal representation in the parliament
"Women's Summit", within the context of the 'Women in Politics' project conducted by UNDP in partnership with KA-DER (Association of Supporting and Training Women Candidates), is being held in Ürgüp during 31 August-4 September.
Local Agenda 21-Women's Councils are the official organizers of this 5th Summit whose theme is to promote stronger participation of women in all levels of politics and equal representation in the Parliament with the help of the Gender Quota system.
Turkey's leading academics, politicians, journalists, businesswomen, trade unionists, writers, women's initiatives and NGOs is participating in the Summit where such topics as the status of women in politics, women's involvement in the history of Turkish politics, women's impact on policy making process, parliamentary works relating to women, the mission and functions of the women branches of political parties, the necessary legal reforms to provide gender equality in parliamentary representation and women's quotas is being discussed.
Local Agenda 21's Women's Councils, the leading organizer of the Ürgüp Summit, are active volunteer initiatives working in a large scope of areas from conducting literacy courses to publishing books, protecting women's legal rights, supporting women's economic independence, improving the conditions of women's and children's health and education, and organizing art and culture activities in nearly 60 cities throughout Turkey. However, in this period leading to the 2007 general elections, the priority issue in the agenda of Women's Councils is to strengthen the voice and visibility of women in politics and to press for the implementation of legal reforms to enable equal representation in the parliament, in other words to put the Quota System into effect.
Prior to the Ürgüp Summit, Women's Councils' Quota Working Groups redoubled their efforts. They held a coordination meeting to prolong the signature campaign demanding the adoption of the quota system, which they will pass on to the Parliament immediately after the Summit. They developed sub-projects relating to 'women in politics', and drafted the Women's Summit Proclamation. Women's Quota Groups also redoubled their lobbying efforts amongst parliamentarians, political party leaders, municipalities and the media.
"Gender Quota System" is a method used to enable gender equality, by placing a compulsory number of women candidates in the election lists. Currently, in the 550-member Turkish Parliament, only 24 seats are held by women. Women are represented by a mere 2% in city and provincial councils. Of the 3,234 mayors in Turkey, only 18 of them are women. (In EU countries on the other hand, 1 out of 5 elected local administrators is woman.)
Presently, Gender Quota is applied in elections in 81 countries. In 16 of these countries, the quota system has been regulated by the Constitution, in 27 countries by election laws. In 47 other countries, the quota is incorporated in the regulatory statutes of the political parties. Belgium adopted its quota system in 1994, France in 2000. Among the Latin American countries, Argentina endorsed the Quota in 1991, and following the 1993 elections, increased the number of women's seats by 13.2% to 28.4%. In Turkey, however, neither the Law on Political Parties, nor the Election Law includes any Quota regulation. Although Turkey had signed CEDAW (the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women) in 1986, and thereby declared its vigilance on the issue of gender equality, legal reforms regarding the Quota system are still pending. Yet the country is in urgent need of this system, because currently 50% of the population is represented by a mere 4.4% in the Parliament. In the area of parliamentary participation by women, Turkey ranks 114th among 119 countries worldwide.
Women's Councils' volunteers also meet with political party leaders and MPs to voice their demand for gender equality in representation. The volunteers found out that some party leaders don't like the word "quota"! Some others, however, support the volunteers and point out that they have allocated a 30% quota for women and young candidates in their election lists. But generally speaking, the majority of party leaders do not think 50% representation by women MPs is "realistic"!
On the other hand, many women who support the quota system think that female political candidates should be of high calibre, as they believe many politicians (both men and women) currently are not, and that women politicians must be very well-equipped.
What do women politicians think?
Mine Kılıç: "I had a female student at the Uludağ University, Teachers' College. Her parents entrusted her to me. I liked her very much. After graduating, she was appointed to a teacher's post in Diyarbakır. One day I watched on TV news that she and her father were killed by bandits. This incident moved me and hurt me deeply. Why?, I said to myself. How can this be? I thought of my own children. It could have happened to me, too. If this could happen to an educated, young working woman, doing service to her country, it was time to say 'stop' to this bad course of events, time to do something about it. Previously, I wasn't at all interested in politics, I didn't sympathize with any of the political parties, but after that terrible event, I felt I must definitely become politically active. Soon after retiring from my teaching job, I went into politics."
Involved in active politics for 40 years, Beyhan Akgün has been promoted to the Supreme Disciplinary Committee, the highest organ of her party. "I didn't come to this position thanks to Quota, I was elected. But I absolutely believe in the quota system. It would be a starting point to involve more women in politics. But the women MP candidates should be well tried and tested in the party first, that's a must. They should serve at least 2-3 years. To place inexperienced people in the lists just to fill the quota would do no service to the country. I think, pre- election is the most democratic method."

A funny thing happened to Coeur d'Alene resident William Hennings as he waited to take a bus home from the Coeur d'Alene Casino just before midnight Dec. 5. He plugged money into a nearby Powerball slot machine and won more than $746,000. "My family's going to have a real nice Christmas," Hennings said in a news release from the Casino. Hennings' $746,948.68 jackpot is the second largest ever awarded in the Casino's nearly 14-year history. In 2004, an anonymous Spokane man won slightly more than $1 million. A Montana native, Hennings is currently unemployed but worked previously at the smelter operation in Kellogg. Hennings said he's already bought a new truck and a new house. He estimates he only spent $25 or $30 playing the game for about 20 minutes before he struck it rich. "I couldn't sleep for the first 36 hours, but I'm sleeping real good now," Hennings said — Meghann Cuniff/Spokesman-Review.
