New Friends is a Christian-based friendship network connecting young adults in high school and college with families of children with special needs. This program is part of our Jesus Cares Ministries (JCM) which is a national outreach ministry to people with developmental disabilities, their families and communities.
Its purpose is to build relationships by focusing on our abilities, not our disabilities, while creating a fun-filled atmosphere where the entire family feels safe, relaxed and happy!
View a recent video where Jackie Mayer talks about what New Friends means to her family.
Manitowoc Lutheran High School started a New Friends program and the program has been blessed with 18 families and nearly 50 teens who regularly attend the events.
The families have found a safe, welcoming environment where they can be themselves. The children don't have to worry about being singled out or called a name. The parents can relax and socialize. All who come find fun, comfort and God's love shared abundantly!
Brandon Glaeser, a volunteer teen, said about New Friends, "I have made a whole lot of new friends. And it can be emotional. I can reach out to people and make a difference. I didn't know I could before". It's results like this that push us forward. Teens learning about differences, acceptance and most importantly, sharing the Word of God.
It's because of experiences like this that we host New Friends events and want to expand the program. We can reach out to those in need – offering both emotional and spiritual support.
If you are interested in starting a New Friends program, please contact Jackie Mayer at email@example.com.

Realtor Derik Daniels likes to tell people, "I was born in Houston and raised in Lumberton, but I always knew I'd go back to Houston to live and work. I love it here." One of Derik's earliest memories is visiting his builder-uncle's construction sites. "I always had an eye for project development and I really enjoy working with builders as well as clients who are building a home. I like being involved in the whole conceptualizing process of new construction," says Derik. He specializes in working with buyers, investors, builders, and developers in Houston's vibrant inner-Loop and close-in neighborhoods.
After graduating from Sam Houston State University, Derik worked for many years in outside sales for Reynolds and Reynolds and as a sales engineer for Tyco Electronics where he handled the company's Dell account, a plum assignment.

Israel has long had a murky procedure called the Hannibal Directive that some interpret as an order to do whatever it takes to prevent a soldier's capture, even if it means killing him.
Research by The Electronic Intifada has shown that an infamous quotation about Palestinian refugees has been misattributed to Israel's first prime minister.
On Israeli campuses, Palestinians calling for peace confronted with calls for "death to the Arabs."
"Without exaggeration and without even a drop of melodrama for enhancing the effect: we arrived at a medieval-style torture facility."
Zionism's cultural appropriation of indigenous Palestinian folklore and cuisine – such as hummus, falafel and maftoul – as "Israeli" has long irked Palestinians. Now, Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank are attempting to steal perhaps the most important symbol and source of economic sustenance for rural Palestinians: olive oil and olive culture.

November 28, 2014
NEW YORK (AP) - Lyricist Gerry Goffin, who with his then-wife and songwriting partner Carole King wrote such 1960s hits as "Will You Love Me Tomorrow" and "Natural Woman," has died at his home in Los Angeles. He was 75.
He and King also were behind "Halfway to Paradise" and "The Loco-Motion."
His wife, Michelle Goffin, says he died Wednesday of natural causes.
Goffin married King in 1959 while they were in their teens. He penned more than 50 top 40 hits, including "Pleasant Valley Sunday" for the Monkees, "Crying in the Rain" by the Everly Brothers, "Take Good Care of My Baby" by Bobby Vee and "You've Got a Friend" by James Taylor.
Goffin and King divorced in 1968. Their love affair is the subject of the Tony Award-nominated Broadway musical "Beautiful: The Carole King Musical."

FORT WAYNE – Simon Danis-Pepin, that's the man's name. And here is something new on a day that never seems new, really – that carries a vibe of cozy permanence with all the old-timers about and Bob Chase back there, too, same as he's been for the last 61 years.
But that is not Al Sims up there at the microphone this time, calling Simon Danis-Pepin's name.
And Danis-Pepin isn't the same-old, same-old, either, not when you look over there and see him unfolding from his chair like an extension ladder, standing up and up and up.
Six-feet-seven and 240 pounds, the training camp roster claims. And it ain't lyin'.
It ain't lyin' about Nick Tuzzolino, either, all 6-6 and 225 pounds of him. Or Nik Pokulok, 6-5 and 225. Or any of the other defensemen new head coach Gary Graham has brought in, only one of whom (William Lacasse) tips the scales at fewer than 200 pounds – and that just barely, because Lacasse weighs in at 195.
Up front we got more skill and speed, and we got more size on the back end, Graham reports. Those were the big picture things we were trying to address.
And the even bigger picture?
This feels much more like starting over than last year did, even if last year the Komets were doing just that after 60 winters on the ice.
They turned the page to a new league with a new dynamic, but so many of the faces were the same it seemed as if the address was the only thing that had changed. Al Sims was still behind the bench. Colin Chaulk still wore the C on his sweater. The formula that won four titles in five seasons in the CHL and IHL 2.0 still seemed comfortably in place.
And then the season began – and everyone quickly discovered that the ECHL was an utterly different animal, that it was a developmental league in more than just name and the days were gone when players would see Fort Wayne not as the ladder itself but merely one rung of it.
And then came Monday, and here was Graham getting up to introduce the players, and, finally, here was the new day that last year only pretended to be.
It's not just players who want to get to the next level here, says forward Brandon Marino, one of the holdovers from a year ago. That's Gary's goal, also. So he's gonna do everything he can and be very passionate.
And realize, at the same time, that the permanence of the franchise depends now on the impermanence of the players who populate it. Over and over, on Monday, as he introduced Danis-Pepin and Tuzzolino and Mickey Lang and Tristan King and all the rest, he talked about doing whatever he could to get them to the next level. He talked about all the speed he and general manager David Franke have brought in. He talked about all the size they've brought to the backline, and scorers too, like Rob Kwiet and Tuzzolino and Lacasse.
It's a new team and a new vibe and it feels, a year into it, like an ECHL camp.
It's a clean slate for everybody, said forward Mike Vaskivuo, who left the Komets for Europe after the 2011-12 season and comes back now to a new coach, a new league and a dressing room minus Chaulk and pile of others. I knew coming in the faces aren't gonna be the same at all this year. It doesn't really matter what you did in your past here. It's a clean slate and we all got to jell together pretty quickly here and get this ball rollin'.
No time like the present for that.

Voralent WebPconv 3.0
The advantages of the WebP format
WebP is a relatively new image format that relies on lossy and lossless compression algorithms in order to optimize digital photos. The compression level can go up to 30% without significant loss in quality, which is a tremendous gain in terms of space and even sharing, since many email or hosting services are conditioned by size restrictions.
Modern and intuitive interface
Voralent WebPconv adopts an elegant interface that hosts two tabs: one belonging to the compression engine, which converts image files to WebP format and one for reverting the process – that is, decompressing the WebP images to their original form.
Batch conversion with statistics
With Voralent WebPconv, you will be able to compress and decompress multiple files at a time. Images can be added by drag and drop exclusively and are listed together with details such as type, original size, new size and status (the last two fields are filled in after the conversion is finished, reflecting the gain achieved through the process).
Adjustable compression factor
By default, the program is set to a compression factor of 75, which is a pretty high value that might result in quality loss. However, you may choose a custom factor using the Options menu.
Also from this section, you will be able to turn the lossless mode on or to set the application to seek for a well-balanced quality level through the Auto Filter option.
Final thoughts
Voralent WebPconv is a great asset if you need a fast image compressor. Conversion speeds are variable, depending on the size of the originals and on the number of files in the queue.

Secretary of Education Arne Duncan Meets with CTSO Leaders
The Department of Education (DOE) recently hosted several leaders from career and technical student organizations (CTSOs) for a "Youth Voices" session with Secretary of Education Arne Duncan as a component of its CTE Month celebrations in February. The Youth Voices sessions are designed to provide the Secretary and department staff with an opportunity to engage with students and solicit their input on existing and future policies and decisions. During the meeting, the students briefed DOE attendees on their organizations' missions, goals and recent achievements. They then went on to explain how CTSOs prepare their members for success by providing them with employability skills, career exploration and leadership development opportunities.In addition, they explained some of the challenges that they have encountered in their experiences as CTSO leaders, particularly related to gaining public awareness of their organizations and building community support. One way they are addressing these challenges is partnerships with local businesses and industry, which provide CTSO participants with greater opportunity to learn about in-demand CTE-related career pathways.CTSOs are excellent partners for ACTE and its members because of their commitment to creating opportunities for students to apply their CTE lessons inside and outside of the classroom. It's also encouraging to see these young leaders stepping up to the plate and voicing their support for CTE learning opportunities. To learn more about the session, visit the DOE Youth Voices Session blog here. In addition, I encourage you to learn more about CTSOs at their newly minted website at www.ctsos.org.

Poverty-housing link still burdens African Americans
- Written by Algernon Austin
- Published in News
Residential segregation and ongoing poverty has left African Americans in some of the least desirable housing in some of the lowest-resourced communities in America. In addition to much higher poverty rates, African Americans suffer from concentrated poverty.
Those observations are just part of the latest economic snapshot by the Economic Policy Institute and are featured in its new project, "The Unfinished March." As part of the project, leading experts on race, economics and policy met Monday (July 22) in a symposium in Washington, D.C. at the AFL-CIO.
According to the snapshot, nearly half (45 percent) of poor African-American children live in neighborhoods with concentrated poverty, but only a little more than a tenth (12 percent) of poor white children live in similar neighborhoods. Children in neighborhoods with concentrated poverty experience more social and behavioral problems, have lower test scores and are more likely to drop out of school.
Recent research suggests that reducing children's exposure to concentrated poverty can improve their likelihood of upward economic mobility.
In 1963, at the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, Whitney M. Young Jr., executive director of the National Urban League, called for African Americans to "march from the rat-infested, over-crowded ghettos to decent, wholesome, unrestricted residential areas disbursed throughout our cities."
Fifty years later, research shows African Americans still lack full access to decent, wholesome and safe housing, in large part because African-American poverty remains high and is very concentrated.

Went on without any clumps and provided great volume and length, but came off way too easily.
Terrible mascara! I'm glad it works for many of you here. I wasn't born with long lashes, but the length of my lashes are acceptable. But this mascara doesn't do much! I curl my lashes with shu and apply this. It straingtens up the curls instead of holding them! And i was left with spikey straight clumped tinted lashes =( Definitely not what I was going for! The brush is unusual, half with the brush and the other half is "a comb" i guess but it didn't do anything. continued >>
I am very disaapointed to Physicians Formula Rebate and Mascara quality. I thought its is good time to try PF for my first time. After I send Rebate form in Feb, They never sand me rebate back and They said its Invalid, Even I sent all correct forms and little pink label. THEY CHEATED ON CUSTOMER. I am very angry about them. This Mascara brush is not easy to use and it irritated my eyes. I'll never buy Phisician's Formula.
I bought this mascara because of the great reviews here. I could never make it work for me. It always clumped so badly. And if that wasn't enough the plastic seal at the opening of the container started coming off with the wand as I was pulling it out. Anyway, I should have returned it but decided to give it a chance and then it was too late. Too bad.
I think this is one of the best mascara's to hit the market.I picked this up and tossed it in the cart.Talc-Free Mineral wear in Ultra Black.Caught my attention.It comes in a unique container.What I like about it is the brush.It comes with it's very own unique brush.This Mascara goes on pitch black.The precise brush allows you to sculpt and comb the lashes abit.My lashes came out looking thick, black and beautiful.This mascara lasts all day and feels natural.Sometimes with other mascaras my eyes get sensative but this leaves my eyes feeling just fine I dont go to pick at a lash or have an urge to rub.This is a wonderful mascara.

i am in love w/ this mascara because of the brush!!...i am able to get the thickest lashes w/out any clumps...i usually use only the comb side, i comb my lashes w/ it in a back and forth fashion and it really deposits the mascara in an extremely thick but even way...i'll let it dry between each application, so it thickens w/ every application...this has to be the nicest mascara wand i've ever seen...no spidery bristles...i am so impressed w/ the brush, i can't even fairly judge the formula..but from what i can tell, it's very good..it can't just be the brush that's doing all the work right? i only get a tiny bit of smudgies when i'm sweating buckets while practicing kung fu...and i stress "tiny bit"...washes off easily...i just wish the formula was more natural, i am used to ecco bella mascara and that's very natural...if only i can combine the 2...oh and the outer container is too bulky! can't even fit it in the designated mascara slot in my makeup brush bag..
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This mascara didn't work for me...it clumped no matter how I put it on or how many coats. I returned it for my money back since it was $12 CAN.
I purchased this off a whim when i passed by it, i had no idea it had such good reviews in P-Ville. When i got out 2 my car and opened it i was very disappointed by the brush (it looked so cheap!) However, when i got home and tried it the next day i was amazed at how great that cheap looking brush separated and lengthened my lashes! it really is an awesome mascara, it never clumps or irritates my eyes. My only gripe is that its really hard to get off, even with my Mary Kay eye-makeup remover, If it wasn't for that it would be my HG mascara.
I bought this based on the good reviews. The first time I used it, the mascara seemed ok, my lashes looked long. The second and third time I noticed a lot of clumping. It does not seem like a good mascara. I will be getting a rebate on this fortunately. Do not plan to repurchase.
More reviews by beaglebaileysmom
Nothing special? I know we all have different expectations in mascara, and different lashes have different needs, so that comment is bound to be made no matter what. But here's why I think it is extraordinary and absolutely "special:"
1) It goes on easily without clumping. You don't have to fuss and fuss with a metal comb or wipe the brush off to keep it from clumping. Result: I'm out the door at least 5 minutes sooner than with just about any other drugstore mascara. This is true even after multiple uses (compared to, for example, Voluminous which is great once and clumpville thereafter).
2) One coat gives long natural lashes. Two coats gives long, natural, thick lashes. Totally beautiful!
3) It stays on without flaking or smearing. No panda eyes, even 10 hours later.
4) It comes off with soap and water (another 3-4 minutes out of the day saved).
5) No animal testing (can't say the same for L'Oreal, Maybelline, Max Factor, Cover Girl, or Rimmel).
Downsides include the brush, with a worthless "comb" side (it's just the same bristles as the brush side, except a single layer of them). Also the fact that this is new, which means it will be on the market for a year or so and then discontinued. And finally, "talc-free" and "mineral mascara" seem a little absurd to me. Of course it is talc-free; it's mascara!UPDATE! Two months of using the same tube, and I love it as much or more. If you're getting clumps, make sure you're not using the comb side, or worse, the flat part. I've done that, and it ends up gross. But the brush half has been extraordinary. I've stocked up on these and vacuum-sealed them for the inevitable discontinuation of this fine mascara! continued >>

Apr 16, 2013I love strategy games and I love fast paced action games. This combines them both into a nonstop shooter where you fly mechs that transform into airplanes/helicopters/ufo's. This game took me away from SC2 and hasn't let go for almost a year AND ITS STILL IN BETA TESTING. Build tanks, create armies, lots of freedom to play your own way and still win. Multiplayer is definitely the meat of this game. Delicious, mouth watering PvP action.… Expand
Apr 16, 2013I don't wanna talk about the game itself so much as my experience playing it.
This game is holding me captive for almost a full year now. I used to be SC fan, played all sorts of shooter games as well. AirMech is simply tailored to satisfy all my gaming appetites.
There is no middle ground. You will eather get totally addicted or simply ignore this one.
Ignoring it would mean not giving it a shot.
Great community, lots of events, giveaways, streamers are just another thing that make this game even more awesome.
I recommend everyone to give it a shot. It's not P2W kind of game, so no worries.… Expand
Dec 20, 2012AirMech is an amazing game that has an awe inspiring experience each game you play. There are many game styles and build orders, strategies, and each and every one is a completely new experience. AirMech, in most players opinions, is a mixture of Dota and Command and Conquer, and both are easily seen. AirMech is also a remake of the old SEGA game Herzog Zwei, a game where the AI's were much harder. This is an amazing game that everyone should try out at least once and the small community could use a real boost.… Expand
Dec 30, 2012AirMech is undoubtably inspired by the DOTA/MOBA crowd(we can pleasurably call it a crowd now) of games. The premise is that you control a single robot that can attack both in air an don the ground, and has the purpose of protecting ground assets aimed at controlled a battlefield and destroying your opponent's HQ. Original? Well, not so much. Fun, though? Yes. This game belies its heritage by providing not just strategy but also action in the form of twin-stick shooter aethetics and controls, and also giving the player a bevy of options to either have more individual firepower or the ability to change the battlefield in the form of carrying power. As a member of the beta team, I can't speak to the pay-for-play nature(most of the cool stuff was included for us beta players) of these battles except to say that very few of the options affect actual battle power; skill trumps luck here, every time. The graphics are adequate to good and the controls precise. Notably, the transformation graphics for the mechs are very nice, on par with various animes and other games out there. Try it out, if the F2P otpions don't excite you, most likely the rest of the game won't. The excitement of each battle really is hair-raising, and the learning curve is complemented by the ample bot training provided, so if you like action games or strategy, this really is the game for you.… Expand
Dec 20, 2012Airmech is a moba type game where you play a robot that also transforms into a plane. The main problem in it is that the control mechanics are cumbersome and the build mechanics detract from gameplay , since you have to pick up the created units with your plane, and drop them somwhere. It is basically a RTS where instead of clicking units and giving them orders you pick them up with your avatar (which you control with the mouse) and drop them somewhere. While this might be fun for some people, I say why not cut the intermediary and either move to a proper RTS game or move to a DOTA type game.… Expand
Feb 6, 2014A very interesting game that unfortunately has such a strange and grindy tutorial, it's hard to get into. Once you get past that, it's much nicer, but the beginning was hard to sit through.
Sep 14, 2014The game used to be fun and engaging. Then they hit it with the Console brush and ruined it. Carbon Games is not worth supporting in the future since they will sell you out after you have invested in the product.
To begin with they removed the option to do survival options with just your group of 3 friends. Instead they saddle you with someone else randomly.

Wildcard (0)
This is a guideline for how to properly review games. Many reviewers like to get a "feel" for a game, and arbitrarily give a game a score that they believe it deserves. This results in wildly different scores between different reviewers, and vastly different scores between similar games. This guideline addresses these problems and scores games fairly and consistently. This guideline also gives scores that are usually similar to the metacritic score.
The review score is based out of 10 points. There are no "half" or 0.5 increments. It is impossible to have a score above 10 or below 0. The review score will change as the game gets new dlc, drops in price, or if more secrets are found through the game increasing its appeal.
The scoring is split into 6 sections. The first five sections can add a possible 2 points to the final score. The first 5 sections are Single Player/Multi Player, Gameplay, Visuals/Story, Accessibility/Longevity, and Pricing.
Notice that 3 of these sections have two parts. These particular sections will be scored based on the stronger part of the game of the two. For example, if a game has a lousy single player campaign, but an excellent multiplayer component, that section will be based solely on the multiplayer as if the single player did not exist. This allows games to be based on their own merits, as many unnecessary features are shoehorned into video games by publishers to reach a "feature quota". Games that excel in both areas of a section don't receive should be noted in the written review, but cannot increase the score past 2 in that section. However, it can be taken into account in the final section
The final section can add 1, add 0, or subtract 1 to the final score. This final section is the "wildcard" section. This section is for how the reviewer "feels" about the game, but limits this only to this section, rather than the entire 10 point review. This section can include any positive or negative point that was not covered in the previous 5 sections.… Expand
Nov 13, 2013This is one of the best games ive ever played. Its free to play, and not pay to win at all. They have done everything perfect. Ive put 93 hours in, and it still feels like a new game, and this is only the Beta, when the full game comes out, I guarantee, this will be a timeless classic.
Jun 7, 2014Its a really easy game to pick up and be good at. The thing I like about the game though is that it isn't pay to win. There is two currency's, diamonds and kudos. Diamonds cost real money but can be earned by just playing, you earn kudos by playing. The only thing you really need to buy with diamonds are decorations and other stuff that is not needed to win. Units and pilots are all gained by kudos which is gained by playing. This aspect makes it really fun to play since you don't have to pay to be good. Truly I did enjoy the game and will continue to. They also update the game frequently which is good.… Expand
Apr 11, 2014The misconception that Airmech is designed as a MOBA style game is quite a bit too common. Airmech is in the style of an Action RTS (Real-Time Strategy) game. This differs from MOBA primarily in that you can both build different types of units and command them in multiple ways as well as joining the battle yourself.
The basic gameplay is a simple concept. Each team has a main fortress with limited health and there are several smaller bases throughout the map that you capture to increase your income and close in on your opponent. Each base requires you to send four infantry units into it after eliminating all enemy infantry occupying the base.
Beyond the basics, there are a lot of strategic catalysts. Airmech provides a wide selection of mech classes (currently 9) that are diverse in abilities and basic stats which provides for a wide range of strategies with your mech itself. Each mech has a mech form and an air form. Each class of mech has a different style of aircraft it transforms into (osprey, UFO, helicopter, etc.) and multiple reskins on sale from the market.
The units in Airmech come in all shapes and sizes. Everything from massive tanks that can break straight through a hole in your enemies defenses to small speeder-bike style units that can rush bases at the beginning of a match. There is a unit for every situation and then some. Players may find it difficult to decide between units as some are nearly identical in stats and even visual design.
Also, be prepared to find references everywhere. This game has units everywhere from Portal turrets to creepers to Syrian Resistance tanks. The references may be a downer to gamers who prefer a more serious feel to their games, but for the most part are good for a few laughs.
The main downside to this game is that after awhile every match starts to feel the same. You can always mix it up with a change in your loadout or by trying to master a new class of mech, but overall the gameplay can feel repetitive if you play long enough.… Expand
May 17, 2014Wow. This game is very good ! It's actually a early access game because the game is under development but it is not seen ! One might think that the game is over so well done ! So I think that this game have a large potential and you must take it ! It is free !
May 18, 2014Really Addicting Game!!!!! I've played 10 Hours!! Beautiful Graphics and also its Free :D
Creating Armies,Fly a Me ch that can transform into aircraft,Trust Me You'll never Bored Playing this game!
Play It Now!!!
Jul 30, 2014This is a Super Fun rts game. You can customize your Mech with Parts, pilots, and items that are all acquired through game play. There is no need to pay for anything! You can play solo, coop (against the computer), PVe, or player vs player. It offers a great selection of choices.
You can chat or play the market. Warning ... this game is addicting!!!!
Jan 17, 2013AirMech is a free to play witch mix a real time strategy gameplay with MOBA games mechanics. Lots of customization and fast and frenetic multiplayer complete the game offer. The insufficient AI and the poor single player mode make AirMech perfect for the multiplayer.
Jan 15, 2013It is the fantastic momentum that really makes AirMech shine. There's never a moment of respite, as your forces are continually trying to capture areas, which inevitably leads to constant conflict with one's opponents.
Nov 25, 2012If AirMech were just a straightforward, updated clone of Herzog Zwei, I'd have been pleased. That it actually builds considerably on its template while incorporating some of the best elements of its descendants has me nothing short of ecstatic. It probably won't pull away, say, hardcore League of Legends players, but that's not really a shortcoming.

Donkeys are the newest mountable animal in the game. They are smaller and slower than horses, but can take higher falls without getting hurt. They can jump fences, so you need to use double fences to keep them in. They are very stubborn, and will stop and refuse to move while you are riding them. To get them to move again, just feed them a sappling, flower, tall grass, or ivy. They will drop their saddle when killed, unless killed by fire.

Choosing an ending in game with multiple endings by last minute dialogue choice or decision.
In games that feature Multiple Endings oftentimes players is given ending chosen on the basis of his decisions and actions throughout the game. In others you just reach the Endingtron 3000, a mysterious machine that will play one of the endings depending on which button you press. Some games mask it's presence by making a critical decision look like a part of a dialogue with NPC or choice of doors, maybe a path. This trope is at work whenever an ending of the game hinges on a single choice made by player at the very end of the game. It does not necessairly mean that previous choices have absolutely no bearing on the ending - they may change some details, but the last second decision will be always that one, most deciding factor. Named after the description of this trope instance in Deus Ex: Human Revolution by Yahtzee As with all Ending Tropes, beware of spoilers.

Apple iPhone factory workers imprisoned in virtual slavery – report
Global manufacturing giant Flextronics International, which supplies components for Apple, Cisco, HP, Lenovo, and Microsoft, among others, has been accused of virtually imprisoning workers in indentured servitude. Bloomberg Businessweek reported on Thursday the sad saga of one Nepalese chap, Bibek Dhong, who left his home in a …
OK, so what can *we* do?
Motorola is assembling its X phone in Texas. So is the next phone we buy Motorola?
I buy green coffee, and there are a variety of certifications, like "Farm Gate" or "Fair Trade." But what do we do for consumer electronics?
Re: OK, so what can *we* do?
I'm sure Flextronics would like that. They run the place for Google.
What you do for Consumer Electronics is to teach your children that there is no statute of limitations on asshole. This is a bit difficult because they are children, but it is a tangible benefit the aforementioned assholes' children will never have.
Re: OK, so what can *we* do?
I'm keeping my eye on http://www.fairphone.com and a colleague has pre-ordered one. Maybe there is another way but seeing is believing...
Re: OK, so what can *we* do?
You are not supposed to do anything.
How come laws are not being upheld over there? Hmm..... Someome must be a nice, fat crony of someone in power. Like Italy, only with another language.
Meanwhile, cheap devices. Which you may or may not choose to buy.
Re: OK, so what can *we* do?
I started out in my first job, a long time ago, Teaching Zardax on Apple IIe, I owned a Lisa, and Original Mac, MAC II and Mac Emu in Amiga, but No more, since then, because these stories of "Apple Slave Factory" persist, it not Apple Comp Exec actually whipping workers etc, it is about Apple screwing these companies on Price to manufacture, and like stupid greedy pigs that they can be, Boss screws workers, Apple gets ENORMOUS markup ...
However I sometimes I am confused to the slave army you refer, the ones making them, or the ones walking around with a Iphony glued to their ear ?
Re: OK, so what can *we* do?
Did your blindness stop you reading that this shit company supplies an awful lot of other Tech makers?
So No Apple for you.
How about not using the internet in case your bits travel through a bit of Cisco kit?
Don't pile all the agony on Apple. At least they have a public policy and do seem to react when things like this are brought to their attention. What about the other companies who use this supplier? Why don't you target hour hatred at them. After all, if more of the companies who use Flextronics start to complain and threaten to take their business elsewhere, the more chance there is of Flextrinics cleaning up their act.
I know what I have said is not the norm for El Reg 'Daily Flail' standard of debate but sometimes you just have to think a little before ranting off.
Coat? Mines the one with a downvote target on the back
Re: OK, so what can *we* do?
@ Steve Davies 3
Sorry but this a forum, place to exchange ideas, thoughts, I did, you dont have to agree, type something that changes my mind, not more of same apple crap I've been hearing for years ...
"OK, so what can *we* do?" , was title, I just mentioned what I did, I didn't say anybody else had to do same thing, and yes it is rampant in industry, All I did is mention that it's been going on for a while ...
Re: OK, so what can *we* do?
Congrats, my 1st thought on seeing the headline was "oh no, what have Apple been up to now ?". Then I read the whole article and discovered:
Only Apple get castigated in the headline, but lots of different major companies who use this supplier don't.
Only Apple, the article says, are doing anything about the situation.
So, all in all, just another piece contriving to stir up hate.
Re: OK, so what can *we* do?
So Apple had complains about "slavery" in the past? And they still have not done anything about that? I bet they have promised that they will do something about that before, as they did now.
Re: OK, so what can *we* do?
About capitalism, greedy bosses will pay people $1 to polish turds, then sell for big bucks in a bag, as real expensive coffee, Shoes/clothing have been been big source of this type of trade, So we do we start ?
Nobody wants to do anything really cause they all want their chance of making it big, and its a lottery, where somebody always looses ...
I seem to remember politicians tellings us, how cheap Phones/elec/water etc was gunna be after privitised, I haven't seen it, Bills keep getting bigger, not less, still nobody in streets about that .....
I feel, nothing to do with PC's, This all is about humans, People don't really care, just want it to work, so these evils continue ....
Re: OK, so what can *we* do?
Hate? A bit strong I think. Strongly dislike, maybe, but I fear yet another word has been co-opted to mean something different to it's real meaning.
Try reading a dictionary occasionally instead of trying to be down wid da hood with your street talk.
Or whatever!
Let's face it, we don't really care do we. These stories always periodically surface, we all get a chance to post our comments of righteous indignation, various companies roll out their prepared mea culpas and then we all run out to by the next version of the shiny shiny they make.
Wake me when something changes.
Re: YAWN!
I don't know... if we could at least get a "No Dhongs were injured or forcefully removed while making this product" QA sticker on the back, I would start singing "We are the world".
Re: YAWN!
I've said it before, and I'll say it again. This is not Apple's fault. I'm no fan of theirs, and I certainly don't own any of their overpriced kit. I don't like their ethos as a company, how they treat their customers, how they do business, and I am underwhelmed by their products. BUT, in the interest of fairness, it's only right that I also comment when they do something right. I do applaud their ethical response to these claims, which happen quite often. They take action, and do more than most to impose restrictions on their suppliers. True, it's probably only because they are in the limelight more than anyone else, but any improvements to terrible conditions are welcome, no matter how they come about.
Apple certainly doesn't deserve to be lambasted for using a supplier which is governed by a third world government, and is also used by every other big tech hardware maker. Sensationalist much, Rik...?
bravo apple
Apple should be shut down as being one of the worst companies in the world, their record for this sort of thing just keeps happening again and again. I do not own an apple device for this very reason" DO YOU"
Re: bravo apple
Err.. did you read that part about "which supplies components for Apple, Cisco, HP, Lenovo, and Microsoft, among others"?
Never mind. Bashing Apple is cool.
Shameful apple
A company that boxes and sells very average microchips at such extreme profits and that pays little to no corporate taxes due to running it's money through Irish bank accounts should at least show a thimble-full of social responsibility towards its factory assemblers.
Re: bravo apple
Err, did you read the point in the article where the production line in question - the hirings, the firing, the recruitments - and the company voluntarily claiming responsibility for oversight of all these issues is attributed to "APPLE"?!
Never mind. Apparently your reading comprehension quotient is so low that arguing is a moot point.
Re: bravo apple
Err - did you read what I said about absurd prices for boxes with average chips?
And don't say "err" or "umm". It makes you sound like an idiot. And get a login, you coward.
Re: Shameful apple
It's good to be indignant about bad developing nation supplier chain employment practice. It's not good to give inaccurate and misleading information that obscures the reality of the situation and obscures the reality of what is being done by which companies and when (and in turn obscures who should be supported and who should be criticised)
If you actually read Apple's supplier responsibility reports you would realise they are making a huge effort to ensure suppliers are acting responsibly. Their effort leads the industry by some distance and indeed other companies, which have not been hit by the "irresponsible suppliers" meme (but should be - such as Samsung) are doing little but ride on Apple's coat tails on this one. Indeed if users applied the same standard of audit they expect of companies like Apple, they would quickly realise that based on real action, if they are to purchase a mobile device, the responsible choice is now to buy either Apple or a Freedom phone or a phone not assembled in a developing nation (though employment practices by parts suppliers still remains a problem), or, most responsible of all, buy nothing at all.
Your point about not paying corporate taxes is also misleading. When dealing with International business, there are always choices to be made and no sane business will make legal choices which increase the tax burden. If you have an inheritance due from an Auntie Pru who has just died in some country, you become executor of her estate and due to her living arrangements you have a perfectly legal choice as to which overseas country/jurisdiction death duty should be paid, you would not choose to pay the duty in the country with the higher rate out of a sense of responsibility to one country as over another. Businesses face such choices on tax and where they base their operations all the time. Ireland provide a low tax regime precisely so they would get businesses like Apple to locate there (they don't as you inaccurately state, just have bank accounts there).
Given international business necessarily involves these quite legal choices, the real yardstick for unethical behaviour is if a company uses or creates financial instruments that exist solely for the purpose of reducing or eliminating tax. Examples are loans that serve no sensible funding purpose and exist solely to defer costs and reduce tax, or as you so inaccurately implied of Apple, bank accounts in jurisdictions where no business is conducted, purely because loopholes allow the reclassification of some form of income channelled through the bank accounts in question, that reduces tax.
Tim Cook is on public record stating Apple run no such instruments.
BTW, if you want to know the name of a tech company who do run such instruments, extensively, look no further than Google.
Re: bravo apple
Have you read Apples PDF about the tax required for hiring new personal?
Re: Shameful apple
They do, you utter halfwit. They are the only business that has visibly tried to anything at all. Where the fucj are Samsung or LG etc? Go on. Show me. It's the assholes like you that continue to give their money to the real crooks like Samsung and LG etc.
Nepal? Are you sure he wasn't from Yorkshire?
Ah - Apple again
Does Apple give a flying f*ck about what you think , when the question is of lining their pockets?
Thought not.
And you guys still buy their stuff. How about taking a stand for once and hit them where it hurts instead of self righteously posturing here ? Or perhaps start an online campaign against such practices. Someone will notice.
And never forget
that having an iPhone built in the high wage west (thats Europe/North America) would result in the iPhone costing $40 more (or knocking $40 off apple's profit margin)
Re: And never forget
Only if the assembly line were fully automated.
And the factory kept away from unions.
Re: And never forget
@DAM you forgot the most expensive cost increasing units, PHBs and process droids. Unions have ceased to be relevant to most workers outside a few blue collar industries.
Re: And never forget
So you say that slavery it's right as long as you pay 40$ less (or Apple earns 40$ more) on a iPhone? Are you iTard?
shh, quiet, some one might be listening
and want to import those employment practices for cost effectiveness/competition. No names, I can't afford it and truth is not a defence here.
Great Company
I work for Cisco and previously worked for Flextronics. Flex is a brilliant company to work for, I cannot believe any of this rubbish reported here in this article.
Re: Great Company
Did you work for Flextroincs at their Bukit Raja plant? If not, apples to oranges.
Re: Great Company
Dude, you nick name is UK Engineer, not Nepalese Lader. You liar.
So what can be done?
Aside from the "HA!!! Your fave brand of shiney beads was mentioned.... YOU'RE AS GUILTY AS HITLER" shoutybollocks, what can actually be done?
That's not a rhetorical question. What can we actually do to ensure that our gadgety goodness is as ethical as possible? I know that food has its fair trade certifications and clothing firms make a big deal of whatever ethical sourcing they go through, so is there a recognised ethical electronics mark? I suspect that no company is a saint and somewhere along the line exploitation occurs, but being able to buy products that damage the fewest folk would be nice.
Let your money do the talking.
Lottie, what could actually be done is to not purchase any new device from any firm which does not meet your personal standard of ethics. If you cannot determine where a given firm stands relative to your standard, then you'll have to make a decision on whether to treat that firm as "innocent unless proven guilty" or "guilty until proven innocent".

Fracking Bans
Two Weeks to Ballot Measure Showdown Deadline
In two weeks, we'll have a better idea of just how epic the 2014 ballot measure battle will be and what forces may make it an historic election.
Future Of Fracking Put To Voters In Colorado
The issue of whether local communities should have more control over fracking seems to be headed to voters on the November ballot.
Will Potential Fracking Compromise Really Stop The Fight?
Even though Gov. John Hickenlooper has crafted a fragile compromise to avoid several fracking ballot issues, the effort might be for naught if environmental groups get their way.
Last Ditch Attempt to Avoid Fracking Fight a Futile Move
As time runs out on the 2014 legislative session, lawmakers are considering a compromise to avoid ballot issue fracking bans, but the efforts are fighting the inevitable.

Introduction Video
About Us
Crossroads Investigations is a full-service national private investigation agency with global capabilities operated by a former Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) officer, and is a leading firm in South Florida, including Miami, Fort Lauderdale and Aventura, offering specialized private investigation services, to include asset and bank searches, background checks, due diligence, surveillance, locate reports and employment and tenant screening.
Crossroads' President, Marc Hurwitz, is a member of the Florida Bar's Grievance Committee and is the Chair of the Aventura Marketing Council's Law Committee. Marc has also twice been named Chair of the annual North Dade Justice Center's Law Day. The Crossroads team is staffed exclusively by former federal intelligence and law enforcement officers.
Crossroads is recognized annually by the Daily Business Review as one of the top-rated private investigation firms in South Florida.
We specialize in litigation support. Whether your firm requires asset and bank searches, very deep same-day background reports, surveillance, skip-tracing, due diligence or other pre- or post-judgment research, Crossroads Investigations can assist. Our field team also can assist photographing accident sites and taking witness statements.
Employers & Landlords
We offer an online low-cost federally-compliant employment and tenant screening system. You can run background checks on your own, to include criminal background history, credit checks, address history, and a lot a more. Our system is very easy to use and highly customizable per applicant.
Investors & Businesses
Crossroads can take a deep look into a target entity before you make a business decision. Our research team has extensive experience in conducting high quality
due diligence reports based on a combination of
hard-to-find open-source information and restricted
database information. Our reports on individuals or
companies include in-depth reviews of litigation, political
activity, financials, reputation, press and blog searches, social media, associated corporations, SEC filings, enhanced criminal and civil litigation checks, and more.
"Marc Hurwitz, the Owner of Crossroads Investigations is a quality person and an excellent private investigator. His background is truly an asset – former CIA officer and former aide to the Deputy National Security Advisor.
Marc is thorough and meticulous in his approach to everything he does. Whether you are looking to track down someone who owes your business money or just run a quick background check on a prospective employee, Marc is your guy.
The key factor that separates Marc from everyone else is the level of integrity he brings to his work and his life. His personal character sets him apart from all others in his industry."
"Marc worked for me as a contractor on several security related projects, and then as an investigator in his current capacity. He was always detail oriented and sensitive to the timelines of deliverables. His sense of urgency and understanding of the scope of each project made him invaluable to me. Marc is a true professional and I would recommend him to anyone considering his services."
- John Ritchie, Head of Corporate Security and Business Resiliency, Asia Pacific Region, JP Morgan Chase
"Marc, is the quality person i always look to work with. Very organized and knowledgeable is very effective. He has a "constant growth" philosophy (personally and professionally) which makes him the go to person in matters of investigations and relationship building for me."
"Marc always gets the job done. When you need the answers to sensitive questions you can depend on Marc to not only get the answers but to always be discreet."
"As a full service litigation law firm, our office requires the services of an investigation company to assist us on issues including locations of corporations and individuals and finding assets to collect on debts, including judgments. We have used the services of many agencies to assist our office in that regard but have found that the services of Crossroads are superior to its competitors and, therefore, we provide Crossroads and its principal, Mr. Hurwitz, with the highest recommendation."
"Marc and his firm can find anyone! His attention to detail is like no other. My clients have been more than thrilled at the results. Thanks again Marc."
"I have consulted with Marc on several issues where I was immediately able to consult with him and gain very valuable information to remedy my problem. His vast amount of experience far surpasses anyone else in his industry, which allows him to properly and decisively deal with a task at hand. He is also a very fine person who cares not only about his craft, but genuinely cares about people. I would not turn to anyone else for investigative services, he is the best."
"Marc conducts all of our background checks for our staff. He always gets the job done correctly and on time. I know I can always count on Marc and his staff."
"Marc's education, training and experience at the highest levels of government allow him to excel at providing services."
"Crossroads Investigations is top-notch. I used Marc when I found out someone had been stealing my content online and republishing it as his own. Crossroads followed the culprit's "cyber-trail" and was able to not only uncover evidence of the "crime" but deliver it to me laid out in a letter so well-written and chock-full of proof that when confronted with it this guy literally ran away with his tail between his legs and has not used any of my material since. Bravo!! I will ALWAYS call these guys when I have an issue that needs to be investigated, on any front. They have my eternal gratitude."
– Michelle Villalobos, Founder of The Women's Success Summit
"Marc is a consummate professional. He knows the business of investigations thoroughly and brings to bear considerable expertise from his intelligence background to do his work. He is sharp-thinking, and it has been my experience that he knows how to get quickly to the heart of the matter in any subject we have discussed, a very valuable asset in the investigative world. Marc is a kind and genuine person. He also is discreet. We put our trust in him. We would rely on him in any matter and unreservedly recommend him to others."
– International Business Consultant Stacey Blau, 5326 Consultants
"Crossroads Investigations is my go-to resource whenever I need background investigations, corporate due diligence, asset searches, and other hard-to-find information. Marc and his team are expert analytical investigators. I have referred him to contacts who needed a closer look at other companies prior to investments or a merger/acquisition. He's been able to help my friends screen potential nannies and tenants. Crossroads is not your typical investigation agency – they add tremendous informational insight for companies and litigators."
"I've worked with Marc on several occasions with respect to my clients' cases and Marc is always professional, courteous and of course does an excellent job. Marc is highly qualified yet he is also very personable, which makes him the perfect choice for all of my and my clients' investigative needs. I highly recommend Marc and Crossroads Investigations."

Loved this chair when it came in. Great service and easy to put together - I even bought a second one. Within a month it had begun to scratch. It now has scratches all over and is a cheap looking chair. Very dissapointed but too late to return. I would not recommend.

Review of Illamasqua Speckled Nail Varnish
First Look: Illamasqua's Limited Edition Speckled Nail Varnish

First Look: Illamasqua's Limited Edition Speckled Nail Varnish
Last week revealed Illamasqua's new Rubber Brights Nail Varnish, and this week, we bring you Speckled Nail Varnish ($22.50 each). Limited edition and reminiscent of a speckled egg, we've got an exclusive look at the collection, set to drop in store at Myer on January 31. The polish is semi-sheer on the first coat, but you'll have the full effect by the second. Be sure to add a high-shine top coat for maximum mani power, and why not mix the colours and wear a cute combination across both hands? Pastels are great like that. Click through to see the colours up close — we know what we'll be wearing on our talons this Easter...

Huawei Symantec has blown EMC and its nearly all-flash VNX off the SPECsfs2008 benchmark throne with a clustered NAS system without using SSDs. Spinning rust rules, OK? An OceanSpace N8500 with eight clustered processing engines scored 636,036 operations/sec on the SPECsfs2008 NFS benchmark. EMC had the previous record score of …
Who are they?
I once worked for the Pan European Huawei Symantec distributor, so I was always aware that the N8500 was no slouch. In essence it's a Xeon based head running Symantec's Storage Foundation coupled to cheap as chips Huawei 5000 Series controllers and trays..
All I can say is that it's certainly not bad for "Cheap Chinese Tat polished up with a Symantec badge" as one reseller termed it to me..
Perhaps the European market with take this product a little more seriously in the future.
Only 1728 disk drives?
Seems the marketing zeebs don't care too much about this benchmarketing result.
The TPC-C kiddies use far more.
Let's Keep it Real
What is truly impressive is how these folks can turn $ into IOPS. The true measure of the Spec tests is not the maximum IOPS achieved, but rather IOPS achieved with a realistic configuration.
If you do the math, the N8500 achieved 368 IOPS/spindle which is actually pretty good. I doubt that the VNX could come close with a similar configuration and I know there is no way that Isilon could touch it. Isilon is not known for IOPS but rather for streaming in read intensive work loads.
By comparison, the BlueArc Mercury 100 single node achieved 72,921 IOPS with a mere 144 spindles of 15K drives. That equates to 506 IOPS/spindle. This is actually an affordable system!
take that EMC
Hopefully it might quieten the noise made by those EMC bloggers....
