Written Answers. - EC Social Charter.
Mrs. Owen Mrs. Owen
46. Mrs. Owen asked the Minister for Labour if he will outline his views on the EC Social Charter, in particular his position on the concept of a minimum wage; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
Minister for Labour (Mr. Cowen) Brian Cowen
Minister for Labour (Mr. Cowen): I outlined the Government's position on the European Community Charter of Fundamental Social Rights in my reply to Question No. 430 on 3 March 1992.
The principles outlined in the Community Social Charter have provided the basis for an action programme brought forward by the European Commission. It comprises the various initiatives which the Commission proposed to bring forward between 1989 and the end of 1992.
Neither in the Charter nor in the Commission's Action Programme is any reference made to the concept of a minimum [66] wage. The Charter refers to the introduction of an equitable wage sufficient to enable workers to have a decent standard of living. The Commission has acknowledged that the interpretation of decent would vary within as well as between member states. It is made clear, moreover, that not only would the Commission be refraining from fixing such a wage it would not be appropriate for it to define decent even in qualitative terms. The action programme leaves decisions in this area up to member states and both sides of industry. The Commission propose to issue an opinion on an equitable wage and this is expected to be available shortly.

The Vampire Diaries Review: Devil of a Timeby Matt Richenthal at . Updated at . Comments
If Kat has lived nine lives in her 500 years of being on the run, The Vampire Diaries Season 5 Episode 12 definitely represented my favorite one.
I've been critical of this character for seasons now, calling the writers out on many occasions for making Katherine nothing but a plot device, someone to randomly show up from time to time in order to move the story in some direction.
But when she actually is the plot? When she's insulting Elena's hair and showing a vulnerable side to Stefan and ratting out Caroline's scandalous sexcapades on The Vampire Diaries Season 5 Episode 11 and wondering how anyone could love Bonnie?
Yeah. I'm all aboard the Katherine train now. It was a really fun ride this week.
Cold, manipulative, good hair. You really are my daughter.Katherine [to Nadia]
The installment was titled "The Devil on the Inside," presumably because Damon's monster came out to play with Enzo by hour's end.
But the entire episode was about characters trying to pretend they are someone they're not, trying to see themselves in the best light.
Damon is the obvious example. He's someone who believes he's at his best when he's with Elena and someone who finally realized this week how insulting it actually is to her to think he could poison her with his darkness.
Elena Katherine gave Damon a perfect response to his little speech outside the party. Yes, she broke his heart. And, yes, she walked away smirking because that was her intention. But wasn't she also correct? Doesn't Damon need to be a good person on his own before he thrusts the pressure on Elena to make sure he remains that way?
It's like they always say: you need to love yourself before anyone else can really love you. In Damon's case, however, the problem is that he does seem to love himself... when he's embracing his own inner Ripper-ness.
Seriously. Some of us eat entire pints of ice cream or listen to sad mix tapes when we get dumped. Damon commits homicide. The guy's got issues and it shouldn't be on Elena (even if it was Katherine pretending to be Elena) to fix them.
Elsewhere, Caroline didn't want to think she was the person who would actually get
slammed against a tree in a passionate lovemaking session sleep with Klaus. She scoffed at the "Prudy Trudy" nickname, but she likely preferred it over what Tyler was thinking and essentially said with his bared teeth: Hybrid Ho.
Leave it to Stefan to swoop in, deliver a winning line ("Drunk or not, she doesn't deserve that.") and later hit all the right notes when comforting Caroline.
Should these two just get together already? Vote now:
Tyler, of course, was also pretending from the moment he returned to Mystic Falls.
He wanted to leave his stint on The Originals behind, to toast to a new beginning at home. But it was a nice moment toward the end when he confided in Matt just how terrible things were for him in New Orleans - and how they've only grown worse.
Indeed, nearly every character was forced to face a truth about him or herself this week. Some came out of it better and stronger (Caroline was able to accept her Klaus-tastrophe and realize it didn't make her a bad person), while others just came out of it bloodier and more of a savage.
We're sort of seen this with Damon before, but Enzo makes the storyline feel fresh enough. He's been a winning addition so far.
Small Bites:
- It's worth repeating: The Vampire Diaries Season 5 spent weeks and weeks saving the life of Bonnie, only to essentially ignore her since. Couldn't they just have killed her off?
- My goodness. Matt has A LOT of friends. Did you see the turn out at that party?!? He must mix a mean drink at The Grill.
- On an acting level, it was a lot of fun to watch Nina Dobrev toggle between Elena and Katherine.
- Caroline Forbes should never not be cleaning. Especially in that tanktop.
- Elena and Damon. Damon and Elena. I know there's a nickname in there somewhere. Best TVD line ever?
What did everyone else think? Check out this teaser for The Vampire Diaries Season 5 Episode 13 and sound off now:
Matt Richenthal is the Editor in Chief of TV Fanatic. Follow him on Twitter and on Google+.Tags: The Vampire Diaries, Reviews
I have to say I've been having major issues with TVD lately... they keep rehashing the same old storyline... body swapping.. a character near death... all the while there are these HUGE plot holes no one addresses.. how is it that Bonnie didn't realize something was up when Katherine didn't pass through her after her "death".. I mean c'mon .. you can't make Bonnie the anchor and then not address that. She would know something was wrong... and so far.. everything is hunky dory :/
I am still happy Elena is out. Could it stay this way? Probably not, because after all, she is the main character; but doesn't it speak to the writters and producers when so many people dislike the main chracter? She is an ass, as much of a dick as Damon
I actually really like this whole Katherine as Elena storyline. I kind of wanted them to kill Elena off at the end of last season when she had her fight with Katherine and then have Katherine impersonate her, so this is pretty awesome to me haha. I agree the everyone needs to stop giving Tyler such a hard time. He did walk away first, but he did that because Klaus ruined his life and then chased him out of town. When he came back it was only because Klaus ALLOWED it as a grad present to Caroline. If I'm Tyler, I'm not taking that at all. Being with Caroline because Klaus ruled it so is not really being with Caroline on his terms, like he wants. Klaus still has control if he lets it go and takes his deal, so he didn't want that. Not saying Caroline shouldn't have slept with Klaus. She can make her own choices. She just can't be upset when Tyler gets mad about it, because she knew what Klaus did when she got into this. Stefan wasn't right to punch Tyler at all. Not his business and not his place. Tyler has the right to be as mad as he wants and Stefan doesn't get to involve himself in their relationship like he involves himself in everything with his holier-than-thou crap.
what if elena returns as an angel like it happens in the books???
Finally I watched the episode and I only like one thing. Matt is getting hotter. Other than that I did not like the episode. People are complaining of Damon turning into the evil Damon again. Well Damon had been always the bad brother; Stephan is the one with the human side. And now tha Damon lost Elena he is spiraling again, Is like Damon said he is who he is and he cant change that. Elena was the one who accepted Damon the way he was because she loved him and in a way Damon got more sensitive because he found love so his evil side was dormant to be with the woman he loves, now since he knows he screwed up , he became the Damon he was in the first season:, bad, selfish, evil., he is releasing his anger, frustration or sadness becoming this bad person. He has always being like that, he was the brother with his humanity turn off Stephan was the vampire with good feelings and even though he later became the ripper, he always have the human side on him who makes him different than Damon,
The show is losing direction of the story lines.
I don't like Katherine taking over Elena's body. Now Katherine went back to her old ways as an evil mean vampire like n the first seasons. I like Delenas relationship and that is why I don't understand why all the hype of bringing them together finally after3 seasons just to make them break up in just a matter of a couple of episodes. It does not make sense. At least the writers should have kept them as a couple for the complete season.
The show has lost its path for one reason only, CAUSE THEY ARE FOCUSING only jon /Damon/Elena/Katherine/Stephan/ story for the last 14 episodes and the rest of the characters story are just back up and secondary. Matt had been underused this season, Jeremy also. I don't see the writer's focusing on Jeremy skills as a hunter. Also in some spoilers at the beginning of the season even Ian said it so he said that we will see how Jeremy and Damon will bond together by living in the same house, and that Damon wll be like his older brother I haven't seen such a thing at all, I mean now that Elena and Damon had broken up I guess that wotn happen at all, Jeremy and Damon bonding
Bonnie this season also underused, all the hype of bringing her back in most of the episodes so far that even the witch Qetsia and Silas had something to do with it that when finally she is alive, suddenly she barely appears on the show. How dumb is that!! And yes how Bonnie did not feel Katherine passing through her? Question to be answered I hope. The show loosing some direction from the writers.
TVD till S5Ep12... beautifull, but illogic. Ty broked up with Car to persue his revange so is not his business what Car does. All the story insist in the evilness of some caracters but everything is happening in a mystical and imaginative place, where vampires walk among the earth so i don't see the society moral dilema. The logical Klaus line in the forest should have been that he will not bother Car again if Car admits she doesn't care for him not if she is honest about carring or not. It should obviouslly be that if she admits to care for him, he will stay and if she admits she doesn't care, he will leave for good. The biggest illogic thing in last episodes is that they missed the fact that Bonnie knows when someone supernatural dies and she feels that pearson pain. How did they noticed Katherine passed away if Bonnie didn't noticed? You can say that Bonnie saw Katherine coming close to the border of life and death but she went back and the pain Katherine felt didn't pass on Bonnie so she wasn't dead obivouslly. At the end, when Elena died, Bonnie should have felt it and interact with her and imediatlly call Stephan or Damon. Ofc they made Bonnie take a trip on episode 12 cause any apearance of Bonnie whould make the whole storyline - with Katherine succeding to act as Elena - useless.
They didn't miss it they are just waiting to bring that info out that's the whole reason she wasn't in this episode so they didn't have to touch that subject they aren't ready to kathrine needs to do a shit load of damage first
First off, Ty has every right to be upset that the girl he loves/d slept with his mom's murderer. If you can't comprehend that than I'm just going to assume you're a 13 year old teeny bopper Klaroline fan. He didn't leave cause he stopped loving her, so yeah when the only person that you really truly love slept with the person who took everything away of course he has a right to be upset. Second, Elena never died just like matt never died. Kat just has her body and when Kat dies by that knife Elena will be back just like Matt.
I liked this episode a lot more than the 100th last wk. I hated the fact that katerine/elena broke damons heart the look of hope then disappointment on his face was sooooooooooooo sad :(. I also didn't expect tyler to find out so fast about caroline/Klaus he was also so hurt by what she did :(. Although I would have rather both these things not happen and Delena and forwood wood have gotten back together. I thought the episode was pretty solid.
The moment where Katherine broke up with Damon on behalf of Elena felt so "soup opera" to me. Like when the evel twin pretend to be the good one and messes up the lifes of everyone and after that of course there will be the drama when Elena returns,they will start explaining themselves.... really predictable, lame, and used to prolong the action and find a reason for Damon to start killing people again. Which we have seen before on the same show as many of you said. I don't believe that the same people are making both TVD and The Originals.....
Clearly, TVD and The Originals don't have the same writters, because TO is great and TVD (specially the "Delena" thing) is just annoying
I think Aaron died with vampire blood in his system and Dr. Maxfield is going to inject him with that needle that makes him into a vampire who feeds on vampires. TVD has become so predictable. Damon is going to cycle through a killing spree. If Stefan's not on a killing spree, then Damon's on one. This show has run out of ideas. Really not as good as the first 2 seasons.
That's a very good thought I bet ur right
Nice episode , it was so much fun to watch Katherine pretending to be Elena (I never seen a professional actress like NINA DOBREV she is a great ).
I felt terrible for what happened to Elena although it was predictable but how she was running in the woods and then she saw Damon and jumped to his arms ,it was really sad.
I didn't like that Bonnie and Jeremy didn't show up this episode but we've seen Matt like more than 2 scenes so I am happy with that ,and I would to see them more .
I felt bad for Aron too he was very sorry about what happened to Elena even after knowing that she's a vampire,and I didn't understand why Aron took that syringe if you are going to kill him eventually.
I love what Stefan did for Caroline and how he defended her I really really like their friendship.
I would really love if Matt back to drink vervain without telling any one and then he be the one who exposes Katherine.

Exercising to Music May Lower Risk of Falling
Music is universal, used by people around the world and throughout history for recreational, cultural, religious and educational purposes. Most of us enjoy music without realizing what a powerful health tool it is.
Today, modern brain imaging allows neurologists to study the effect of music on the human brain. These medical researchers and musicologists are teaming up to understand the interrelationship between music and wellness. In previous issues of Caring Right at Home, we've seen that music can:
Many of us also use music for an energy boost while we exercise. Now, as reported in the Archives of Internal Medicine, a new study demonstrates that combining music with physical activity can reduce the fall risk of seniors.
Researchers from University Hospitals and Faculty of Medicine of Geneva, Switzerland, noted, "Each year, one-third of the population 65 years and older experiences at least one fall, and half fall repeatedly. Exercise can counteract key risk factors for falls, such as poor balance, and consequently reduce the risk of falling." They designed a study to investigate whether adding music to an exercise program could enhance its fall-preventive effects.
The researchers assigned a group of older adult participants to take part in a once-a-week exercise program using music and a wide range of movements to improve the body's balance-control system. The seniors, whose average age was 75, walked in time to piano music, responding to changes in the music's rhythm. As the sessions progressed, the exercises became more challenging. At the end of the study, participants demonstrated improved balance and walking skills—and their fall rate had decreased by more than 50 percent.
In this study, exercise and music turned out to be natural partners in combating the danger of senior falls. Study author Dr. Andrea Trombetti said, "Our findings suggest that this program may be useful for fall prevention and rehabilitation in community-based settings such as senior centers."

Woman's body found Washington Township
Updated On: Dec 16 2012 06:31:47 PM EST
Macomb County Sheriffs are investigating a scene near Van Dyke and 28 Mile Road in the parking lot of the Washington Mobile Home Park in Washington Township.
The body of a female was discovered by someone driving by.
"A vehicle traveling on Van Dyke noticed the body laying in the parking lot there and went and checked it out and gave us a call," said Sheriff Anthony Wickersham.
The victim is described as a white female between 25-35 years old. She is about 5'2" 120 pounds. She was wearing blue jeans, a tan shirt, brown leather jacket and a white scarf.
"At this point, we don't have any identification and we'll be working this as an active crime scene," Wickersham said.
It's unlcear if the woman is the victim of a hit and run or if something happened to her at another location and her body was left there.
"We've been canvassing the mobile home community and at this point there's no identification that she lives there but we still have a lot of work to do in the case."
Police are asking anyone with information to contact the Macomb County Sheriffs Department.

Yay for Nicole!
May 26, 2010 - Pam Rodgers
Nicole Scherzinger, lead singer of the Puzzycat Dolls, was declared the winner of Dancing with the Stars Season 10 on Tuesday night. I was so happy that she won. She was by far the best this season. I enjoyed watching her dance. It was a great season, overall. The showdown between Nicole and Evan Lycacek was everything I hoped it would be. For a season I wasn't very excited about when it first started, it quickly turned into one of my favorite seasons of all time. I am sad that it has come to an end but very happy with the result.

I enjoy reading suspense filled fiction full of unusual characters. The twists and turns of new offbeat novels by Jamie Mason and Gregory Gibson kept me engaged until the last page.
In "Three Graves Full", the delicious debut by Jamie Mason, you'll find a skillfull page turning thiller replete with delightfully quirky characters including two savvy detectives, a nosey surviving girlfriend and one stupendously intelligent dog. When quiet and unassuming Jason Getty decides to hire landscapers to tame his front yard it isn't long until they discover two bodies buried there. And neither one is the body that Jason knows is buried in the backyard. Jason is now petrified that his dark secret will be revealed and his world quickly unwinds as he desperately tries to stay ahead of the game.
If remarkable characters appeal to you, then try Gregory Gibson's soon to be released novel "The Old Turk's Load". Set against the backdrop of the 1967 Newark riots,the lives of the shady real estate developer Richard Mundi, crime lord Angelo DiNoto, his socially activist daughter Gloria, and drug ridden cancer survivor Mailman collide in a crime spree of heroin and stolen art. It's up to private investigator "Walkaway" Kelly to discover the truth behind Gloria's revolutionary activities, but he is soon distracted by what appears to be the murder of Gloria's mother. It all cumulates in an unforgettable showdown over the Old Turk's Load.

text: 5 Not revolutionary but nevertheless well doneEisert | 25/03/2011 | See all Eisert's reviews (6)I did not have time to get into all features in detail but until now all plays quite well. Creative Assembly reduced the (financial) risk by producing a remake of their first Total War game.Almost everything in this game was already tried out in previous Total war games but now it is all put together (and rather well I must admit).As the detail of the graphics were increased considerable I feared slow(er) framerates than the previous title (with my I5 PC) but everything runs smoothly. Only on the campaign map I've noticed some choppy movements of units when more and more of the (strategic) map is revealed. A smooth gameplay on the battlefield is however the most important for a real time war game and until now I encountered no issues with that.The game is improved in almost every field. The campaign map is 3D and can now fully rotate. The map was designed with much eye for detail (dark weather/rough seas in wintertime, bright weather/calm seas in summertime or the Japanese with hand carts pushing goods but nicely pass each other on the roads, not going through each other like in some other games, etc.). The family tree is back with the possibilty to marry into another clan.The siege castles can be very huge with multiple rings of defenses.The sea battles - although in my view also based on the same graphical engine as Napoleon Total War - are quite different as the ships are more floating wooden castles designed to board (well) other floating wooden castles.There are some new features to Total War such as a data log showing all events in Japan, the user selectable RPG parameters for generals and strategic units (assassins, priests,...) and the victory locations on the battlefield but most things we have seen before (but now in the most advanced Total War game).I suspect that some of the new features were "borrowed" from other games like the (victory) locations on the battlefield (comparable to King Arthur) providing extra bonusses for your troops. Why not? Ideas which have proven to work in other games should be used to make your own game better. I bet Total War inspired other games designers too.The battlefield has not changed too much. In my opinion they did not use a different game engine than the one which was used for Empire and Napoleon Total War. How do I know? Well the grahpical issues which I sometimes had after spending quite a few hours of play during Empire/Napoleon (like the bright white uniforms for all troops on the battlfield or the black artifacts) are there again. These are minor issues though as the graphics are still state of the art.The AI is improved (although it will never match a human). I did however surprise me once during a siege of my stronghold. Some of their troops apparently sneaked up from a backward direction into my stronghold while I was harassing the main body of their army with my cavalry bowmen (which needed a lot personal attention to avoid them being decimated by spearmen).I did not yet try the multiplayer aspect of the game but it looks interesting.In my view Total War has the best game concept (strategic turn based and tactical real time) of all wargames and until now the Creative Assembly is the best in this field in terms of graphics and gameplay although the competition is there and is getting closer (good for us).All in all a very enjoyable and high quality game although I prefer the Napoleonic (and later) era. I hope they will once make a WWI or WWII Total War. But this is unkown terrain for the Creative Assembly and therefore poses a much higher risk than the proven grounds of the Medieval era being it in Japan or in Europe.Nevertheless a must buyer for every strategy and wargame fan

Facewest Recommended
Those who want a fast, easy to use transceiver (just about everyone) with no extra options or modes to worry about
The BCA Tracker 2 is engineered to be as simple as possible. It only has 1 switch and one button. The button is unobtrusive and only for those who know where it is! In making the Tracker 2, BCA stuck to their guns on the usefulness of digital features instead BCA worked on a 3rd antenna to increase distance accuracy and eliminate the spike, making the information update faster which leads to more accurate pinpoint searches and an increase in range whilst still being backwards compatible to drifted analogue beacons.
The BCA Tracker 2 is a fully digital 3 antenna avalanche transceiver.
BCA's goal was simplicity. Once the transceiver is on there is just one big pull down switch, pull to search, push to transmit, everything else is automatic. BCA have shunned features like digital masking and target selection as their research has shown that all that really counts in the real world is speed and ease of use. The Tracker 2 has replaced the Tracker 1 as the easiest to use transceiver available.
This mode is selected when you pull down the bottom switch. Grid search until you receive a signal. Turn yourself and the Tracker until the red light is in the centre. Walk forward whilst checking that the distance reading is going down. Keep repeating until you get there. If the Tracker 2 detects more than one signal it will lock onto the strongest signal but will light the multiple burial light to alert you that there is more than one signal.
The Tracker 2 has the best pinpoint search that we have tested. The display updates so fast that it is difficult to overshoot in this final stage. Research showed that this was a problem for inexperienced searchers and so was one of the most important refinements from the original tracker.
The Tracker 2 has a special mode which allows the searcher to manually hide a a signal from the transceiver, this can be used during multiple burial searches. However this mode can be confusing to some users and is not selected as standard. In fact the button has been deemphasized from Tracker 1 to 2. It is now a black button on a black background, that's how important BCA think it is to the average user.
An important feature of both the Tracker 2 and original Tracker, and one that is easy to miss, is that of all the new digital transceivers the Trackers are the most backwards compatible with old analogue transceivers. All digital transceivers will detect a correctly functioning analogue transceiver.
The problem is that many old analogue transceivers especially old Ortovox F1's have drifted outside the industry standard transmitting window. Now I would stress that this is a problem with the old analogue beacons not the new digital beacons, but BCA have decided rather than reduce bandwidth to increase overall range which would exclude these older transceivers (of which there are many) they would leave the range alone and attempt to pick up as many old analogue transceivers as possible. This is quite a technical point but shows that BCA are committed to avalanche safety as a whole and not marketing driven performance figures.
If you like your tools to be simple but effective with no combinations of buttons to remember then the Tracker 2 would be a good choice.
Share your thoughts with others and earn 30 reward points for each validated review.
I chose the Tracker 2 because I also own two Ortovox F1s and wanted to be sure of compatibility, given the concern about frequency drift with older, analogue models. The Tracker 2 works well with the F1s. It is also very simple and reliable to operate. Battery life very good. I've just used it for more than 2 weeks continuously and have about 80% battery left. Nice touch: it bleeps after 12 hours continuous use to remind me to switch it off if I'm in the bar by then. Drawbacks? I'm having to re-learn 'put on, switch on' after years with the fool-proof F1. It is also bulkier and heavier than the older kit.
I recently purchased the Tracker 2 from Facewest after spending a while trying to decide whether the extra cost over the original Tracker could be justified.
This weekend I was able to test out the transceiver in the snowy Cairngorms. The Tracker 2 is comfortable to wear, and most of the time I didn't notice I was wearing it at all.
I performed a test where my friend buried his transceiver and I then searched for it. The distance readings appear to be very accurate, and because of this I found my friend's transceiver far more quickly than I did in a similar test with a Tracker 1 last year.
I do think that having 3 antennas rather than just 2 does speed up the search in the last few metres, telling you exactly where to start probing very rapidly.
My friend's transceiver was an 8 year old analogue Pieps 457, and the Tracker 2 had no problems picking up this signal. I have read that some other digital transceivers struggle to pick up the signal from older analogue devices.
Overall I'm glad I spent the extra cash over the Tracker 1, as this one will locate your buried mates more quickly and improve their chance of survival.
Decided it was about time I bought a beacon and after a bit of research settled on this new one a couple of weeks ago. Have been practicing quite a bit with it and it seems just the ticket, very simple to use, and allowed for quick dummy finds with directional arrows and distance indicators. The arrows don't always take you in a straight line to target, sometimes you curve around a little, but this is no problem (and with practice seems like you can cut the corner and go straight to target). Haven't had opportunity to play about with multiple targets and so haven't messed with the "hidden" button. Very much like the switch-to-search operation - a proper reassuring "click" as you pull out the button/toggle. Overall top notch, the harness feels a little uncomfortable when first on but it's not noticeable and feels fine once you're underway. If you're a giant then the harness may be too small - it just about fits me, but that's more a review on me than the product! Operation on/off and switch-to-search works well without having to remove from harness - maybe only saving seconds but they all count, also like the lanyard from the main body that clips onto harness belt independently so that when you grab it out of the holster, you can search with it still secured to your person. Hopefully I will never need to use it in anger, but if I did I'd be confident it's going to give me every chance to be successful in a search. Have always found BCA stuff to be great.
I order and received my tracker2 through Facewest a few weeks ago for a tour in April. It was chosen after many hours of research and it is definitely value for money. I must say it is a simple and robust piece of kit. I have tested it in the field (well a snow covered field in north Wales!) and the search time was great considering I have never used a transceiver before! It is easy to use with gloved hands and has no gimmicks or unnecessary features. I would recommend this piece of kit to anyone from novice to guide!

You know how some places just make everyone look better? Rue B is like that. Silver-blue banquettes line the walls, candles illuminate the polished-zinc tables, and photographs of jazz icons oversee the action (which includes nightly live music). Drinks are mixed with fresh-squeezed juice—the apple martini is made with Stoli, fresh apples and a touch of syrup—and they slide down all too easily. Draft beers include Guinness, Brooklyn Pennant and Brooklyn Pilsner, along with sangria and sake, are also available. May as well tuck into some of the tasty nibbles on offer; you'll be here awhile.

Dorvin Lively is the newest member of Ace Hardware Corp.'s upper-echelon management team — the Ace CFO hired three years ago was promoted to executive VP in January 2011.
Lively talked to Home Channel News about the co-op's role as a growth engine, and the independent retailer's fastest routes to high performance. He offers a credible vantage point, and brings a background equally fluent in retail shelves and balance sheets.
Lively was a professional accounting fellow at the Financial Accounting Standards Board in the early 1990s. He later became a senior VP and corporate controller at Toys "R" Us before moving on to Maidenform Brands, and then to Ace Hardware in 2008. In addition to overseeing all financial-related activities of the Chicago-based co-op, Lively looks over retail operations, business technology, retail training and business development.
For independent hardware stores, there are no shortcuts to success, he believes. But there are fundamentals. The following represents some of his free advice along these lines.
On common denominators of a successful retailer:
"There's not a cookie-cutter answer to what makes a store successful. But for the sake of argument, it always comes down to a few basics. You've got to have the right products in the store. You've got to have the right amount of inventory. And then you've got to have the right people who are willing and eager to serve your customer when they come in the door. You can almost say that that's the price of entry, and then you begin to differentiate yourself from there."
On the opportunity for business-to-business customers:
"We believe that in most situations a store owner should try to drive some level of b-to-b business. In almost every small town in America, schools, churches and even local municipalities — they all need hardware-related products; they need things we sell in our stores. It can be the local plumber, handyman guys. We believe that that's a huge opportunity that in some cases our stores aren't capturing. Now there are some that do, and they do very well. But this is a point we've really been emphasizing in the last year or two."
On the Craftsman brand's rollout at Ace stores:
"Last year, we negotiated with Sears to have the exclusive rights to that brand in our channel. It's not easy to just say, 'OK take these SKUs and stick them in the store.' There would be duplicate SKUs, Ace brand maybe, and stores have different footprints. So, it has taken us awhile to develop what we think is an ideal set for most of our different types of stores. We spent quite a bit of time in 2010 getting what we thought was the right set for a suburban market. We've been working on different sets for smaller, more urban markets. It's been a slow process, but we're really pleased with it. We have a lot of stores that have Craftsman now, and a lot more stores that are just starting to roll it out."
On Ace's SAP business IT implementation:
"We spent the last three months working with our retailers and getting feedback, trying to help improve the system, and I think we'll continue this throughout the year. We knew that there would be what we call 'optimization' — or getting it to work the way it was intended. With IT systems, there's always something that you'd like to do better. I think getting our system stabilized was a huge effort in 2010 as we went live. Now, the focus is optimizing that even more. We needed to modernize our systems internally, partly because we had a lot of old, home-grown systems that were 20 or 30 years old. We need technology to be more efficient and more productive. We want to open more stores and help our existing stores grow, and this implementation is going to give us the backbone to be able to do that."
On the role of the co-op:
"We at Ace believe that we differentiate ourselves from some of our competitors out there — on the co-op side — in being able to be more than just a wholesaler, but to give our stores the lowest possible cost on the goods and be able to provide them with services and operating methods that help make them better. There will be some that believe they're good enough, and they don't need that help. But most of our stores are single-store operators, a very high percentage. And for many of them, it's always good when you get outside your box and see how somebody else does things. And we do. That's just one way we help them."

Website was not reachable for a small amount of time, thank you to an user of my plug-ins that let me know.
Webhostingpad messed up again, is the second time since I have this little space with them.
I payed in advance the renewal and then they sent an email payment didn't go through.
I called them to make sure they "see" the payment and everything seemed fine at the end, 'till today, when website was not reachable probably because they didn't pay on behalf of me my domain name, for whatever reason I don't know. How sucks this? A lot!
I am considering for a new host next time it will expire, open to suggestions!
EDIT: Here is the incredible email they sent me, quoted and later my answer, enjoy and stay away from webhostingpad!
On 12/09/2011 06:16 PM, Kelly wrote:
I apologize for the inconvenience. The payment confirmation was for the hosting extension on the account. The domain is a separate entity.
The domain is a separate entity, TRUE, but the payment confirmation was for the hosting only, NOT TRUE!
Because you sent me the advert that if I had payed in advance (before 5th of December 2011) you would had given to me 1 free year of domain renewal, that means the payment for the account was CONNECTED by your advert with the domain name.
Let's summarize:
1. you sent me the avert (attached since you have bad memory) on 10th of Nov 2011 about account renewal + 1 free year of domain if I had renewed by 5th of Dec 2011
2. on 17th of Nov 2011 I renew for 3 years, I got the email confirmation about that.
3. on 25th of Nov 2011 you send me an automatic email stating that renewal has been declined!?!
4. Same day I call you and I ask to be 100% sure that you "see" the payment and the website is not taken down, that implicitly INCLUDES the domain of course, because YOU INCLUDED in the advert NOT ME.
5. You Kelly the same day sent me the confirmation of the payment and that everything is fine now and website WON'T BE taken down.
6. on 9th of Dec 2011 I see that the website is NOT reachable.
Now… one user pays you in advance following YOUR advert about account AND domain name renewal, user calls you to confirm that you see the payment… and YOU have the face to tell me that your email was not talking about the domain name?
You know what? I don't like bs, the only thing you must have said was: "Yes we have made TWO mistakes in a row because our payment system is totally unable to work correctly, and even if you called us to make sure everything was right, we fucked up again, we are very sorry."
Now I don't need any reply, I don't want to hear any more bs.
have a nice day

Juvenile fish and crustacean numbers steady in Alabama waters after Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill
March 13, 2013
The 2010 BP Deepwater Horizon (DWH) spill threatened numerous habitats across the Northern Gulf of Mexico. Of concern were the many commercially-harvested species, including blue crabs and shrimp, which spend time in offshore surface waters as eggs and larvae before settling into salt-marsh nurseries as juveniles. In a recent paper in PLOS ONE, Dr. Ryan Moody of the Dauphin Island Sea Lab (DISL) found that abundances of young fish and crustaceans that spent their early days in oiled waters did not differ from pre-spill levels.
The study monitored multiple generations of young fish and crustaceans in a salt marsh located near Bayou la Batre, AL before and after the DWH spill. Surprisingly, the only observed declines were in a handful of species known to complete their entire life cycles within the estuary. The decline continued following the arrival of an oil pulse near the study site, but numbers of animals quickly rebounded to pre-spill levels by early 2011.
The most severe coastal oiling was limited to Louisiana's wetlands and much of the weathered material that made it to the shores of Mississippi, Alabama and Florida was intercepted by outer barrier islands and sandy beaches, thereby largely missing critical salt-marsh habitats. Although wetlands to the east of Louisiana escaped the brunt of the oil spill, young fish and crustaceans that spent their early first weeks of life in offshore waters would have been hard-pressed to avoid oil even if they were spawned some distance from the well site.
"It is unlikely that the majority of eggs and larvae drifting in the currents of offshore waters of the Northern Gulf were able to avoid contact with oil. Fortunately, it appears as though the blue crabs, shrimp, and numerous fish species we sampled were able to handle any strain imposed by the spill and make their way back to nursery habitats in sufficient numbers," said Moody.
"In the months following the spill, we did see a decline in the abundances of some species that spend their entire lives in salt marshes, but they began to decline in abundance before oil was ever detected at the site. It can be a difficult task to separate the effects of oil from other environmental stressors," he continued.
Moody emphasized, "Our study focused solely on juvenile fish and crustaceans and, although the crabs and shrimp we love to eat appeared to escape contamination, we are unsure what the more subtle negative effects of oil might be in terms of their future reproductive success. This study was about these species in their very early lives, not their adult eventualities."
Dr. Just Cebrian, co-author of the study, added, "Analyzing all the information collected from this accident will allow us to determine what has or has not been affected in the Northern Gulf of Mexico. When we put the DWH spill in context with oil spills elsewhere in the world, it should improve our ability to manage more effectively the negative consequences of such accidents."

Alisa Fleming ~ Though relatively low in fat, this vegan chocolate pudding from Gail Davis and So Delicious Dairy Free is quite decadent thanks to the triple dose of chocolate.
Since So Delicious® Dairy Free Chocolate Coconut Milk Beverage is soy-free and free from the top allergens, I recommend using Enjoy Life brand chocolate chips to keep this vegan chocolate pudding recipe "everyone-friendly," if needed. And don't forget to top each serving with an extra sprinkling of those mini chocolate chips!
I know a few of you will ask, so to clarify, yes, you can use arrowroot or tapioca starch in place of the cornstarch to make this vegan chocolate pudding corn-free. You can even use your favorite sweetener in place of the sugar. Each will add its own unique flavor, but the end result should still be delicious.
For convenience, you can also get chocolate coconut milk in single serve packages. I like to buy unsweetened apple juice and specialty milk alternatives like this one in single serving sizes for recipes. It helps to avoid waste if I won't be using the rest right away. Of course, you could always make a double batch of this vegan chocolate pudding to help polish off a quart of chocolate coconut milk in no time flat. Whichever size you choose, be sure to print this So Delicious Coupon
This was YUM! If I may suggest though: Add your cornstarch separately and mix it with warm water and stir till all is dissolved BEFORE adding it to the pudding! I discovered this the hard way by having to eat lumpy pudding :/ (still was yum tho). I made mine with agave instead of sugar, too.
Would love to try this but all of the coconut milk I can find has Carrageenan added and I react bady to this additive, used as a thickener.
[…] good is chocolate pudding? This recipe is super simple […]
This was delish!! Thank you for providing so many delicious recipes! I have discovered a whole new genre of cooking and I love it! (My daughter I'm nursing is dairy, soy, corn, egg, nut allergic.) I ate almost the entire pudding in one sitting. Sooooooooooooo thankful to find alternatives!
[…] good is chocolate pudding? This recipe is super simple […]
[…] by Gail Davis's vegan chocolate pudding, this dairy-free chocolate pudding takes just 10 minutes to whip up on the stovetop and makes a […]
Hi, this pudding looks like something I would like to make for my son (he has Eosinophilic Disease). I was wondering what I could substitute for the cornstarch and can I substitute Enjoy Life chocolate chips for the chocolate chips it calls for? Thank you!

I concur. However, I believe that the problem browser was Netscape 4.76 not 4.79. In any case, hopefully, Mozilla will be aggressive in hawking its browser as a viable alternative to IE. For that matter, maybe the Linux and Unix communittees will get their acts together and launch a decent offense against Microsoft and present a higher quality standard for the entire Web industry. I just felt like saying that.Received on Monday, 30 September 2002 07:00:03 GMT

In general, it is not possible to optimize all these criteria for process scheduling using any algorithm (i.e., some of the criteria may conflict, in some circumstances). Typically, the criteria are prioritized, with most attention paid to the most important criterion. e.g., in an interactive system, response time may well be considered more important then CPU utilization.
In the operating systems course, you will study some of the algorithms which are used for process scheduling.

The significance of the CRU emails
The whole of the anthropogenic climate change reporting and response is co-ordinated by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which produces substantial reports every few years on the current state of the science and economics.
The last of these reports—Assessment Report 4 (AR4, as it is referred to throughout the emails)—was released in 2007.
The scientific parts of the IPCC's reports have been based heavily on the research and reconstructions produced by The Club—particularly on the temperature reconstructions of Michael Mann and Keith Briffa. These reconstructions (usually involving a hockey stick graph) have been constantly attacked—and usually destroyed—by sceptics such as Steve McIntyre.
What these emails show is that members of The Club have presented, as fact, data which privately they have acknowledged to be, at best, flawed.
Further, many members of The Club are editors of the reports submitted to the IPCC, and the emails show that they have deliberately cherry-picked those that agree with their position—and conspired to discredit or reject those that do not agree with their political position.
The Club has also conspired to suborne journals, and to oust editors of other journals who are perceived as being unsympathetic to their cause. And they have been successful.
The emails show that, whilst claiming that sceptics' papers are not peer-reviewed, The Club have actively and deliberately used blackmail and smears to prevent such peer-review or, when review is unavoidable, to have conspired to skew the review process to discredit their opponents.
All of these actions render the scientific reports produced by the IPCC extremely suspect. At best.
And they most certainly destroy the concept of the "scientific consensus".
None of these emails disprove anthropogenic climate change: but they do shatter the idea that there is no dissent and, crucially, they absolutely annihilate the idea that scientists are impartial and uncorrupt.
And these emails most certainly explode the proposition that we should reorder the world economy because of an impending climate disaster.
Every single member of The Club needs to be removed from any post of responsibility; they need to be sacked from their jobs, ejected from the IPCC working groups, their data re-examined by independent assessors and their papers expunged from the IPCC reports—AR5 is due out quite soon and any inclusion of The Club's research—or reconstructions or models based on their research (as most of them are)—will lead to it being stillborn.
And then—maybe—we can make a proper, honest assessment of what is happening in climate science: until then, it is all just bunk.
Labels: climate, CRU emails, environmentalism, just not fucking funny, science, whoops

BOSTON, Mass. - A Lowell couple pleaded guilty today in federal court to defrauding the Internal Revenue Service, and their workers compensation insurers, by concealing millions of dollars of wages they paid to employees of their temporary employment agency.
United States Attorney Carmen M. Ortiz, William P. Offord, Special Agent in Charge of the Internal Revenue Service's Criminal Investigation - Boston Field Office and Anthony DiPaolo, Chief of Investigations of the Massachusetts Insurance Fraud Bureau announced today that JENNIFER MILESKI, 36, and her common law husband, KINH DINH DO, 34, of Lowell, pleaded guilty to a three-count criminal information with conspiracy, mail fraud, and assisting in the preparation of false tax returns.
Mileski and Do operated C&A Associates, a temporary employment agency in Lowell that supplied workers to a graphics company to perform manual labor. The couple charged their customer by the hour for each employee, and were responsible for paying payroll taxes and workers compensation insurance for the employees. Mileski was in charge of the business and its finances, while Do was responsible for recruiting workers, nearly all of whom were recent immigrants, and for distributing the payroll. At any given time, the couple had from 10 and 60 employees on the payroll.
The defendants concealed the true size of their payroll from the IRS, and from their workers compensation insurer, in order to reduce their employer payroll taxes (FICA) and their workers compensation insurance payments. They did this by paying their employees in cash each week and hiding any record of the payments. Even though they retained a payroll service, they routinely told the service that C&A had no work and therefore no employees. Relying on this misrepresentation, the payroll service filed over 20 quarterly payroll tax returns on behalf of C&A that reported no payroll. They similarly told the auditors for their workers compensation insurance carrier at the end of every policy period, that C&A had no employees, and concealed any record of the cash payroll, knowing that the fewer employees they appeared to have, the lower their insurance premiums would be.
Over the course of their six-year scheme, the defendants paid out over $3.4 million in cash wages. In so doing, they fraudulently deprived the IRS of approximately $656,414 in tax payments, and their insurance carrier of approximately $77,811 in premium payments.
Mileski and Do are scheduled to be sentenced by the Honorable Douglas P. Woodlock on December 20, 2010. Each face up to 28 years imprisonment, to be followed by three years of supervised release and a $750,000 fine.
The case was investigated by the IRS-Criminal Investigation and the Massachusetts Insurance Fraud Bureau. It is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Jonathan Mitchell and Sarah Walters of Ortiz's Economic Crimes Unit.
