This iReport is part of an assignment:
Sound off
Media coverage of President Obama pretty ridiculous.
Doesn't matter what he does or which decision he makes or even mistake which he himself admits > the media gives him a pass.
I'm no partisan hack.....I support our president with his foreign policy....I support our president in his acknowledgement of the environmental crisis we face.
I would go so far as being a supporter of a majority of this president's actions.
But the outright biased coverage and support of any political person of the highest order is just insane....Sort of Russia-like.
If president Bush did close to even half of the actions of this president he would have been crucified a hundred times over.
Anyone who doesn't see the pro-Obama-biased national news coverage must take a look in the mirror and access their own partisanship..
Which for me means the ability to look at all things objectively and not in the scope of being a partisan drone.
We can agree with one side or the other but that doesn't mean we become brain dead, cover our ears and close our eyes to opposing viewpoints.

Syria has confirmed that it has 12 cases of Polio indicating a major outbreak as the national vaccination program has effectively been crippled by warfare.
Especially with anti-vaccination concerns in places like Northern Africa and places like Yemen, there is a rather large worry that this could spread and overturn genuine progress made in fighting the disease.
And while the origin of this polio raises questions (where did it come from?) the fact remains that Polio is out of it's bag in one part of the world and the transmission of refugees mean it probably won't stay there for long.
As casualties and victims of war go this is a rather tame one but must all casualties of war be bullet and explosive based?

I bought this amp in 2006 and still have it
hooked up to 2 10 inch MTX's. This amp POUNDS
these 2 subs like a much higher wattage amp. I
also have it bridged into 2 ohms. At the time it
said 2 ohm stable so i thought you could run it
bridged 2 ohms. Well i never had a problem and
it still POUNDS my 2 10 inch subs. Would recomend this amp for any type of system. Best
amp i have ever owned, honestly.

Unable to connect to the database
First, a bit about my setup:
I followed one of the perfect server guides and all processes are on the same machine.
The Problem:
After a system restart, my ispconfig 3 installation throws the errors:
Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-3.2.0-31-generic-pae
What do I need to do to fix this problem and, if you wouldn't mind at least speculating, what caused this issue in the first place? All was working fine until a system restart.
Please test your mysql server with this command:
mysql -h localhost -u root -p
and then enter the mysql root password from the file /usr/local/ispconfig/server/lib/mysql_clientdb.conf
Testing with mysql -h localhost -u root -p and then pasting in the password that is in /usr/local/ispconfig/server/libmysql_clientdb.conf allows me to connect:
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
Pk, then the errors in the log are most likely old and have been fixed already, as the file /usr/local/ispconfig/server/libmysql_clientdb.conf conatins the variables with the passwords that are used in the file /usr/local/ispconfig/server/plugins-available/mysql_clientdb_plugin.inc.php to connect to the server when a client new database is created in ispconfig.
They are not old. I've deleted the entries in the log and tried to create a new client database and after the job goes through the queue, I get those errors stated above in the log again, with a current timestamp.
Do you use any special chars in your mysql password, if yes, change it to use only A-z a-z and numbers and tra again.
No special characters. It is an alphanumeric password.
And you use ispconfig 184.108.40.206 and have not modified any sourcecode or installed any third party plugins or addons in ispconfig?
I am using ispconfig 188.8.131.52 (per the html title of the admin pages) and have not modified any sourcecode nor installed any 3rd party plugins or addons.
According to je error message, the mysql password is empty but you said it is not empty and no files were altered, so maybe a file got corrupted. You should ownload the latest ispconfig again, unpack it and run the update.php script ehich is in he intall folder. Choose to reconfigure services during update.

There is limited data on the prevalence and mortality of venous thromboembolism (VTE) following oncologic surgery.
To evaluate the trends, factors, and mortality of VTE following major cancer surgery.
Design, Setting, and Participants
Patients undergoing colectomy, cystectomy, esophagectomy, gastrectomy, hysterectomy, lung resection, pancreatectomy, or prostatectomy were identified retrospectively using the Nationwide Inpatient Sample between January 1, 1999, and December 30, 2009, resulting in a weighted estimate of 2 508 916 patients.
Main Outcomes and Measures
Venous thromboembolism following major cancer surgery was assessed according to date, patient, and hospital characteristics. The determinants of in-hospital VTE were evaluated using logistic regression analysis.
Venous thromboembolism showed an estimated annual percentage increase of 4.0% (95% CI, 2.9% to 5.1%), which contrasts with a 2.4% (95% CI, –4.3% to –0.5%) annual decrease in mortality in VTE after major cancer surgery. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, older age (odds ratio [OR], 1.03; P < .001), female sex (OR, 1.25; P < .001), black race (vs white; OR, 1.56; P < .001), Charlson comorbidity index score of 3 or more (OR, 1.85; P < .001), and Medicaid (vs private insurance; OR, 2.04; P < .001), Medicare (OR, 1.39; P < .001), and uninsured (OR, 1.49; P < .001) status were associated with an increased risk of VTE. Conversely, other (nonwhite and nonblack) race (OR, 0.75; P < .001) was associated with a lower risk of VTE. Among hospital characteristics, urban location (OR, 1.32; P < .001) and teaching status (OR, 1.08; P = .01) were associated with greater odds of VTE. Patients with vs without VTE experienced 5.3-fold greater odds of mortality.
Conclusions and Relevance
During our study period, VTE events following major cancer surgery increased in frequency; however, associated VTE mortality decreased. Changing VTE detection guidelines and better management of this condition may explain our findings.
EAPC indicates estimated annual percentage change; MCS, major cancer surgery; VTE, venous thromboembolism.

Ted Rogers Celebrated With Commemorative Bronze Statue At Rogers Centre
Twelve-foot statue honours visionary, entrepreneur, philanthropist, passionate Canadian
TORONTO, July 23, 2013 /CNW/ - Rogers Communications unveiled today a 12-foot bronze statue of Edward S. "Ted" Rogers to celebrate the spirit and legacy of one of Canada's most respected and influential leaders. Designed by Canadian sculptor and close friend of the Rogers family, Siggy Puchta, the full-length statue, weighing nearly 800 lbs., was inspired by Rogers's drive and commitment to advancing media and communications in Canada.
"Ted never gave up on a dream and his relentless spirit turned a fledgling radio station into Canada's most dynamic communications and media company," said Loretta Rogers, Ted's wife. "It's truly an honour to celebrate his incredible accomplishments with the unveiling of a statue at Rogers Centre, home of the Toronto Blue Jays. Ted always felt the Blue Jays played a central role in the civic pride of our country and he loved being amongst the fans at a game. I couldn't imagine a better home for this special tribute."
Rogers, who passed away in 2008, was one of the country's most accomplished entrepreneurs.Known for his unwavering drive, he built Rogers Communications into a North American leader in wireless telecommunications, cable television, broadcasting, publishing, and more. As Founder, President and CEO of Rogers Communications, he stepped up to the plate and acquired the Toronto Blue Jays in 2000 in an effort to keep the team on Canadian soil. He later purchased SkyDome in 2004, re-branding it Rogers Centre. "Ted was truly an icon who transformed the communications landscape," said Nadir Mohamed, President and CEO, Rogers Communications. "He built Rogers Communications from the ground up into one of our country's greatest success stories. Ted remains a great source of pride internally and his incredible spirit lives on through our 30,000 employees." Today's dedication ceremony was attended by Rogers's family and close friends, including wife Loretta, their children - Lisa, Edward, Melinda, and Martha - his sister Ann Graham Calderisi, and Rogers Executives and employees, including Nadir Mohamed, Alan Horn and Phil Lind. "While many remember Ted most for his success in business, he was also known as a generous philanthropist and a dedicated family man," said Alan Horn, Chairman of the Board, Rogers Communications, and President and CEO, Rogers Telecommunications Limited. "This statue is a great way to commemorate Ted Rogers, a true pioneer of our times." The statue stands atop a granite base with four plaques describing Rogers:

More reviews by xsxpxixdxexrxsx
I really liked this product. it didn't cause me to break out horribly, but I did have a couple breakouts (whether or not it was due to the product is questionable). it had nice coverage and I found that it illuminated my skin. I thought it looked good. I did find that after a few hours or wear my skin did feel oily, but overall I think its a great product, I was very satisfied and I would definitely buy it again.

This product was my first introduction to BB creams. I first bought it two years ago at CVS, and I've been using it off and on since then. I think I went through a couple of tubes.
I normally like to splurge more face makeup but found myself on a budget, so I went the drugstore route. I think this one was about $10-$12, which is on the less expensive side even for drugstore BB creams, or at least it was when BB creams first hit the US.
The packaging is fine. Nothing fancy. It works well for squeezing out product, although I don't particularly like the look of it.
This is the creamiest BB cream I have tried. It's really more of a tinted moisturizer with SPF. Its easy to distribute because of the creaminess. I have combination skin and it could get a little greasy for me unless the air was really dry then it was perfect. I would just layer a little pressed powder on top to combat the shine, no big deal. There's a light scent to the product that I didn't mind.
I do think it did a good job blending out my imperfections and making me look a little more alive. I have neutral-to-warm olive skin that would be considered "light" to "medium" depending on the time of year, and the "light/medium" shade blended in perfectly with my skintone. This, along with the price and the ease of application were my reasons for sticking with this product for awhile. I had sampled other BB creams that either felt dry/chalky or otherwise were not easy to spread on my face; or the color wasn't right for my skin tone.
The whole time I was using this product, I would experiment with other BB creams at Sephora, etc, or read reviews of other BB creams because despite the pros of this product, I still felt that I could do better. As beauty bloggers will tell you, this isn't close to a true BB cream found in Asia even by US standards and I was curious to try something closer to the real thing. I also wanted a product with more SPF. Finally, a couple of months ago, I made the switch to Lumene's BB cream, which I like a lot more.
In the end, I give this product a 3 because it's a decent product. It's not the best and it's not the worst but it's not really a BB cream. I think it's worth a try for someone young (doesn't have anti aging concerns) and on a budget.
I was so surprised to see this product has such low ratings... I've tried loads of BB creams and this one is my favourite, looks beautiful and I use it on days where I don't have time to properly apply any makeup and it instantly makes my face look alive, the only reason it didn't get full marks is that it can irritate my eyes.
I love the way it covers. The con for me is that my skin feels so greasy after a few hours and it makes me breakout. I know people complain about the scent, but I love it. I can't quite put my finger on it, but it reminds me of something I've smelled before. I guess it's a sense memory thing that allows me to continue using it periodically.
I'm in my early 60's and have good but dry skin. This is one of my favourite products although, in Canada, it doesn't have an SPF. Other than that, this is like Photoshop in tube for me. It glides on, has excellent coverage and adds a bit of moisturizer. I've used it alone, with sunscreen or moisturizer underneath and with loose, mineral powder on top and it has performed excellently in all cases. I love this product and, compared to other BB's, it covers like a foundation and moisturizes well if you have normal skin. (I generally use it with moisturizer, which I put on before, when my skin is very dry in the winter.)

This BB cream is good for any skin types and it is not to heavy on your face
I purchased this product in Light/Medium for combination to oily skin and this is the 2nd time that I have purchased it & it has worked great on me. I have oily skin & at 1st I didn't expect it to work on me at all. I have used this product during the summer & even harsh winters & it has never failed me. Of course it won't last me an entire day (it's BB cream) but I can get a good 8 hours from it. However, if I do prime before applying the BB cream I will get a full day from it. The coverage is light & it can be buildable but only to a certain extent. My choice of color is a little light on me so I do have to mix it with the darker shade (Medium/Deep), but its only a tiny bit. If you're looking for something that gives you full coverage, this is not the product for you. This product is definitely something to use on a daily basis & like it claims, it does improve your skin. On a daily basis, I apply it with my Real Technique expert face brush or, most of the time, a damp Beauty Blender. I do use concealer and powder after it (MAC's pressed blot powder in Medium Dark/Dark or Ben Nye banana powder) without a problem.
Overall, I will & do recommend this product to everyone. The product itself is $13 USD & will last you for a good 4 months+ so its definitely worth the price.
Ok let's start off with the bad and then good Cons: -just like any other bb cream doesn't provide the best coverage (but is very build able and will cover up well) -in my opinion the smell is good (flowery scent like all other garnier products) but it might bother other people -can be slightly expensive for some people Pros: -it left my skin feeling beautiful -I noticed my blemishes slowly disappearing (I have been using clean & clear pore cleanser since I have oily skin with dry patches) -covers up my redness great So in conclusion I'd definitely buy this product again! It really does work like a miracle and hides my imperfections well and you can blend it with you're fingers, sponge, or just use a brush!
I have had this product for a couple of months and i realised that it does not work for me.
-smells good
-good amount
-good consistency
HOWEVER, there are more cons than pros
-not very good coverage..feels like theres nothing at all because i need to cover my acne scars
-extremely oily; i can add setting spray, powder, and in 2 hours, il be oily again. I even bought the one for oily skin
-a bit expensive for me because it does not work very well
I think that this would be a very good bb cream if you just need some skin brightening and awakening. However, i do not recommend this if youre looking for a bit more coverage but still light, like I was.

this product works great if you mix it into your foundation. i found that wearing this product on its own makes my skin very oily.

10 Beloved Banned & Recalled Products
Everybody's stocking up on those entertaining Buckyballs before a ban against them enters into force. But they're far from the first beloved product to earn the wrath of the Consumer Product Safety Commission. (And for the full story on why product recalls actually make you less safe, check out our feature.)

Deep Fryers
Maybe these should be banned just for health reasons, but with burning oil and a scalding handle, deep fryers are also quite dangerous to the cook. There's a reason officials warn people each holiday season to be extremely careful if they're going to attempt to deep-fry a turkey. The CSPC has had to recall thousands of different fryers in the past decade.

How to Care for a Pet Raccoon
Seven Parts:Is this the pet for you?Locating a suitable raccoonHousing your raccoonFeeding your raccoonPotty trainingHealthEnrichment
Not many people think of raccoons as pets, but they make great ones, if you're okay with their mischievous personality. Here's how to care for one!
Part 1 of 7: Is this the pet for you?
1Decide if you really should get one. Raccoons live for around ten to fifteen years, and need vet care, supervision, enrichment, and play time. You can't just stuff a raccoon into a closet! Consider who will look after your pet when you go away, or in case you're unable to care for your raccoon anymore - pet raccoons can't survive in the wild! Raccoons can also get into a lot of trouble, and have a tendency to bite (and bite hard at that). Your raccoon will need to live in the house, or he'll just be a caged wild animal you keep in your yard.Ad
2Find out if raccoons are legal in your area. Raccoons are banned in many areas, and you don't want to end up having to relinquish your coon because he's illegal in your area.
Part 2 of 7: Locating a suitable raccoon
Part 3 of 7: Housing your raccoon
1Build an outdoor pen for your raccoon. Raccoon love space to roam and play, so make it large enough for your raccoon to play. Raccoon also like high places and little hidey-holes to burrow away in. A reasonable 10x10 foot area will be plenty for your little guy to roam around.
2Give him a place to sleep. Your raccoon won't be picky when it comes to beds. A small pile of soft hay or straw will do. If you really feel like going the extra mile, a small pet bed will do, however the raccoon might not like this new bed and refuse it.
3Give the raccoon a place to raise its young. Especially if your raccoon is female, it is going to want a safe place to raise its young. A small alcove will probably do. Be very careful not to interfere with a mother raccoon and its young, as the raccoon will become very aggressive.
Part 4 of 7: Feeding your raccoon
Part 5 of 7: Potty training
1"Save" some of the soiled articles from the raccoon. It is very important that you place a piece of feces (use all safety precautions) at the new location. This lets them know it is their smell. Relocate the soiled item and feces to a desired location.
2Clean the undesired location with a bleach and water solution. You may need to do this several times.
Part 6 of 7: Health
Part 7 of 7: Enrichment
1Give your raccoon lots of entertainment. He should be given toys such as stuffed animals, his own room to hang out in, and a bed (complete with bedding). Play with him every day, and give him training to keep him occupied and prevent naughtiness.
2Have fun with your raccoon. Raccoons make great pets for dedicated, informed people. Plus, they look cute.Ad
We could really use your help!
healthy gardening soil?
business writing?
- Don't let your raccoon get fat, as this shortens his life and can cause heart issues.
- If it bites (and it probably will) don't hit it or throw it. Speak with a firm voice and say,"NO." If you hit it, it will try to defend itself.
- Generally adults can't be tamed very well; stick to kits if you want a pet.
- If you don't want your raccoon to destroy your belongings, give him his own toys to shred!
- Always keep track of the whereabouts of your raccoon.
- Raccoons are solitary animals and don't usually get along with other coons.
- Raccoons are very social and need lots of attention! If you work all day, and aren't home to provide this attention, maybe a Raccoon isn't the best animal for you.
- Never hit your raccoon!
- During mating season, expect your coon to be aggressive and "mark" around the house with pee.
- If you decide on a raccoon for a pet, be prepared for biting! It's a natural reflex and can't be completely removed. To help stop it, give your coon a stuffed toy whenever he nibbles to hard on you to tell him to chew on the toy, not you.
- Because of their tendency to bite and the amount of responsibility necessary for owning one, raccoons do not make good pets for children!

We are pleased to present below all posts tagged with 'Portfolios'.
We are pleased to present below all posts tagged with 'Portfolios'.
The humble screengrab, staple component of a million personal and agency portfolios, can now retire with thanks for years of sterling service showing snippets of work done for a particular client or project. The screengrab always reflected a mythical state in time where the website looked just as the designer intended it, not how it typically ends up after a week or two when the client has been adding their own ad banners, stock photos of business people shaking hands or several poorly worded press releases.
As designers and developers, we spend a great deal of time and effort getting a project just right for a client, yet often we don't do it justice when we display the extent of our involvement and the various component parts that go into the whole thing. So many personal and agency portfolios simply display a couple of screen grabs of a project along with a few hazy bullet points saying things like "HTML & CSS"; or "WordPress CMS development." These tell us very little about the effort that's gone into a project and aren't really very helpful to visitors who might be looking to your portfolio with a view to working with you on a project.Read more...
Today designing a unique, compelling portfolio has become a crucial task for designers, studios, companies and everyone whose business is on the Web. Not only does it help one stand out among the numerous competitors, but it is also a great tool for self-expression and demonstration of skills.
Now designers face new challenges in attracting the capricious web audience – a plain web page with a project list on it is out of date and boring, while fancy Flash websites with intricate navigation are annoying. Fortunately, despite all difficulties beautiful and artistic designs are appearing in an endless stream. Designers skillfully use all the benefits of the digital age and create websites that are rich in effects and eye-popping yet simple and accessible.
In this post you can see a collection of 69 new, ingenious and beautiful portfolio designs that will hopefully become a decent inspiration source for you. The collection includes both Flash and HTML websites, however all the designs are stuck to the balance of visual attractiveness and usability. Notice that every screenshot is clickable and leads to the website itself.Read more...
Portfolio websites are critical for designers who want to get exposure for their work and attract new clients. While all portfolio sites will showcase the work of the designer, some have chosen to provide additional information about the project through case studies.
In this post we will be featuring more than 30 portfolio sites to show how they are using case studies from their own design projects to communicate with potential clients. Not all of them are referred to as "case studies" on the site, but all provide much more information than just giving a screenshot with the client's name.
If you are considering ways to make your existing work more relevant or appealing to visitors who may be potential clients, providing case studies is one option. Take a look at the sites featured here and you may come up with some ideas of how they could be used on your own site.Read more...
In our recent study on Typographic Design Patterns and Best Practices, we asked our readers about case studies they would like us to conduct. One of the most popular suggestions was a detailed case study of portfolio websites. Following the requests of our readers, we have carefully selected 55 design agencies and Web development agencies, analyzed their porfolio websites and identified popular design patterns. The main goal of the study was to provide freelancers and design agencies with useful pointers for designing their own portfolio.
This post presents the initial results of our big portfolio design study. Below, we discuss the visual design, structure, layout and navigation of portfolio websites. We also get into the design details of every single section, including the about, clients, services, portfolio, workflow and contact pages. Of course, you do not necessarily have to follow the findings presented here; rather, use them to get a general idea of what other portfolios look like, and then come up with something of your own that is usable, distinctive and memorable. We would like to thank Mark Nutter for helping us gather data for this study.
The second part of the study will be published here, on Smashing Magazine, in two weeks. Hence, please subscribe to our RSS-feed and follow us on Twitter.
Any ideas or suggestions? Maybe there is something else that you would like us to analyze additionally in this study? Comment on this article — we are listening!Read more...

Best Dressed: Leading The Way
The more things change, the more they stay the same – particularly when it comes to fashion.
Nowhere is this accentuated more than at Churchill Downs, home of the Kentucky Derby, an event that is celebrated as much for the fashions donned by guests as for the world-class thoroughbreds that race around the track.
Yes, style has evolved over the decades, often reflecting societal transformations, cultural shifts, what's occurring on the international arts scene, the economy and, quite frankly, our whims.
This is why Churchill Downs makes such a spectacular presenting sponsor for The Voice-Tribune's Best Dressed of Louisville 2011, an event that features some of the most fabulous, fearless fashions – all in one place.
"The beauty is even though fashion has evolved (at the racetrack), it's still high-end fashion, people looking their best and taking risks," said Casey Cook, vice president of brand development and licensing for Churchill Downs Inc. "Some people may not see the direct implications of why we would be sponsoring Best Dressed. It's simple: Fashion is a very important element of coming out to the racetrack."
Whether dressing for Downs After Dark, the Kentucky Derby or Kentucky Oaks, or picking the perfect outfit to wear on a random afternoon to Churchill Downs, the involvement of fashion allows guests to experiment with different styles they might not choose, said Cook.
"Louisvillians love to get dressed up … and they never disappoint. It's a great platform for style here. I think guests feel safe unleashing their fashion ideas; it allows people to be creative."
That being said, and despite the occasional head-turning hat or garish get-up, "it's not about being a caricature or putting on a costume," Cook said. "It's about trying new things."
That, again, is why Churchill Downs is a perfect partner for The Voice-Tribune's Best Dressed.
"For the runway show, you push the limits of fashion. You bring the New York, the Milan styles of fashion – and Louisvillians come to expect that and it translates into their wardrobes as well," Cook said. "It's a good parallel. (Best Dressed) … almost encourages you to explore new fashion trends. (Guests) have so much respect for the event that they reciprocate that with their wardrobe for the night and I think that's a lot of fun. That's what's special about the night."

What We Do
At Outcome Referrals we scientifically measure the presence and severity of a wide range of behavioral health problems with our behavioral health assessment tool, the Treatment Outcome Package (TOP). A client completes the TOP questionnaire before, during and after treatment. Based on their responses, Outcome Referrals produces a comprehensive report about a client's well-being and treatment needs. Reviewing the detailed clinical information from these reports during treatment enhances the therapeutic alliance, aids in treatment plan reviews and improves case management.
TOP's scientific outcome measurement also allows us to identify areas in which a clinician is most effective. Using this information, we can match clients with clinicians who have demonstrated success in treating a client's specific problems. Matching clients with the right clinicians dramatically reduces the number of ineffective or harmful treatments. By eliminating these treatments, we increase the capacity to serve clients without increasing healthcare costs.
Learn about why TOP is the best behavioral health outcome measurement tool available.

Document Type Master's Dissertation Author Stamp, Jane Dorothy firstname.lastname@example.com URN etd-07062011-132048 Document Title Optimum heat storage design for heat integrated multipurpose batch plants Degree MEng Department Chemical Engineering Supervisor
Advisor Name Title Prof T Majozi Committee Chair Keywords
- heat integration
- energy optimisation
- multiproduct
- multipurpose
- heat storage
Date 2011-09-05 Availability restricted AbstractThe application of heat integration to minimise energy usage in multipurpose batch plants has been in published literature for more than two decades. Direct heat integration may be exploited when the heat source and heat sink processes are active over a common time interval. Alternately, indirect heat integration involves using a heat transfer fluid for storing energy and allows heat integration of processes regardless of the time interval. This is possible as long as the heat source process takes place before the heat sink process. This allows heat to be stored and then used later when required. In both cases, heat transfer may only take place if the thermal driving forces allow. For most present methods, the schedule tends to be fixed and as such, time is also fixed a priori, which leads to suboptimal results. The method presented in this dissertation treats time as a variable and consequently leads to improved results. Both direct and indirect heat integration are considered as well as the optimisation of the heat storage size and the initial temperature of the heat storage fluid. The mathematical formulation is based on an uneven discretisation of the time horizon and the state sequence network (SSN) recipe representation, which has proven to result in mathematical models with fewer binary variables compared to models based on other representations (Majozi & Zhu, 2001). The resulting model exhibits the mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) structure, which implies that global optimality cannot generally be guaranteed. However, a procedure is presented that seeks to find a globally optimal solution, even for nonlinear problems. Heat losses from the heat storage vessel are also considered. This work is an extension of the MILP model of Majozi (2009), which was in fact more suited to multiproduct rather than multipurpose batch facilities. The addition of heat storage instead of using only direct heat integration leads to increased flexibility in the process and therefore improved energy usage. Optimising the size of the heat storage vessel as well as the initial temperature of the heat storage fluid decreased the requirement for external hot utility for an industrial case study by 33% compared to using known parameters.

The sun may still rise over Copacabana beach if and when Brazil are eliminated from this World Cup, but there will be a communal sense that things will never again be as wonderful. On Friday night the country's players proved themselves worthy holders of the responsibility in prolonging such a dream. It has been a rocky road but Brazil march on - they are now just one more victory away from the Maracana, and the chance to redress the nightmare of the 1950 Maracanazo.
This was 90 minutes to assault each and every one of your senses. It may not have been a victory in the style for which Brazil has been famed, but in truth that died as normality a long time ago. This is a country that won World Cups in 1994 and 2002 with grit, guts and raw passion - against Colombia all three were required in spades.
It is a sugary cliché, but this was a match in which there deserved to be no losers. The first half was as close as is conceivable to footballing nirvana, an atmosphere made almost impossibly fervent by the a capella renditions of the anthems, before being whipped up further into a frenzy by a game played at an unprecedented pace.. At times it felt as if footballing style was being reinvented as central defenders sprinted sixty yards with the ball, defenders took goal kicks, players shot from distance and the referee struggled to gain any semblance of control.
This was South American football, nay any football at its enthralling, brilliant best, a match stuck in the sixth gear of all-out-attack, with defending as limp as wet cardboard left out in a thunderstorm. There were evident mistakes and imperfections, but these only seemed to fuel the feeling that we were watching something unique.
We waited just seven minutes for the opening goal, nudged home from a corner by Brazil's captain Thiago Silva. Silva received a great deal of criticism following the Chile tie for watching the penalties away from his team-mates, seemingly overcome with the emotion and magnitude of the situation. This was his almost instant redemption, the beating of chest as he wheeled away his method of demonstrating just how strong a leader he could be. He was the first Brazilian captain to score in a World Cup since Rai in 1994, and will hope to follow in Rai's footsteps all the way to lifting the trophy next Sunday.
Importantly for Brazil and Luiz Felipe Scolari, the midfield performed at a far higher level than previously over the last three weeks. In the absence of the suspended Luis Gustavo, Paulinho was restored to the starting line-up but selected in a more reserved role alongside Fernandinho - both were utterly brilliant in both fire-fighting and destroying.
At the centre of Paulinho and Fernandinho's fine work was Carlos Velasco Carballo, the Spanish referee whose leniency became almost comical. When Thiago Silva was booked for blocking David Ospina's kick from hands, Carballo issued the first yellow card for the 41st foul of the match, a World Cup record. Brazil committed a total of 31 fouls in the match, a striking statistic, with Fernandinho incredibly fortunate to not see yellow.
However, the outrage over such physicality must be muted slightly. Brazil may draw censure for their rough housing, but this isn't an unusual occurrence in South American football. Interestingly, when pushed for an answer after the match, Colombia coach Jose Pekerman refused to criticise Brazil for their approach. Instead, the Argentinean admitted that there was a "friction" to the match, but described it as "the same for both teams".
I am inclined to agree, and whilst there appears to be something of a witch hunt for the conspiracy theorists that believe FIFA are somehow colluding to ease Brazil's passage, such talk is nonsense. Colombia committed 23 fouls themselves, with Neymar in particular receiving some harsh treatment. The news that he will miss the rest of tournament with a broken vertebrae will be mourned across this football-obsessed country.
Thankfully (and typical of the spectacle), just as the game threatened to spill into the niggly and scrappy, a moment of genius wrestled it back into the mesmeric. If you were choosing one player in this World Cup to epitomise the unpredictability and excitement of this tournament it would be David Luiz - this is the poster boy of football irregularity. His free kick was majestic, soaring above the bar before dipping into the top corner of Ospina's goal. Even by the standards set by the first half, it took your breath away - unless you are Brazilian, in which case that breath was exhaled in relief.
A final (and deserved) word too for James Rodriguez, the undoubted surprise star of this World Cup. He was kicked enough times during the match for he himself to be left unsure whether he was James or Ham-es, but the midfielder simply picked himself back up time and time again, desperate to further continue his distinction.
Rodriguez will be sore in the morning, both physically and mentally, but should be immensely proud of his achievements. His late penalty made him the second youngest player to score six goals at a World Cup - only Pele beats him to that. It seems an odd statement to make about a player already the subject of a £35million move, but a star has been born.
There seems a strange obsession with discrediting the achievements of this Brazil side, but the fact remains that despite the intense pressure upon them to win this tournament, they are in the semi-finals. We were told that Chile were the answer, but Brazil sent them home. We were told that Colombia were the answer, and Brazil have beaten them too. This is a side that just keeps on keeping on.
This may not be the Selecao of 1970, but perhaps they are simply victims of comparison to those that have gone before. It might not be jogo bonito, but maybe we have become more obsessed with that ideal than the Brazilians themselves. Find a local in Rio de Janeiro this evening and ask them if they care about the how or the why. You'll probably have to stop them dancing first.

Giuseppe Grossi was our host, and organised a very interesting Workshop about "Whole of Government Accounting and Auditing. International Trends". Following it, the PhD seminar was held in the same University, which was under the responsibility of Susana Jorge and Jan van Helden.
Newsletter includes the call for papers for the 15th Biennial Conference, which will be hosted by the University of Malta, on June 4-5, 2015, with the title "Making governmental accounting research more relevant: a practice-oriented approach". The Newsletter contains also two other call for papers: EGPA PSG XII in Winterthur and IRSPM Birmingham
We finally report an invitation to join the recently developed Public Sector Accounting Abstracts Repository (PSAAR), a useful tool for researchers, entirely devoted to public sector accounting.
Public Sector Accounting Abstracts Repository (PSAAR)
The XII Permanent Study Group of EGPA- Public Sector Financial Management has developed a repository in order to boost networking and awareness in the area of public sector accounting research.
The public sector accounting abstracts repository (PSAAR) publishes only Public Sector Accounting related work. It is therefore focused on the enhancement of the possibilities of exchange and sharing in our scientific community. Research works are presented solely in abstract form, with several search facilities (e.g. key words, paper category, author etc.), in an aesthetically attractive and user friendly website that facilitates easy tracking and screening of relevant research work in an organized way. PSAAR offers the option to easily locate published papers or ask for the full text from the authors. Authors can recommend the way the citation to their paper would be made and citations text could be easily copy-and-pasted. Finally, PSAAR also hosts abstracts of papers not written in English provided that the essential information such as the abstract, the title and the keywords of the paper are presented in both the original language and English.
We invite you to register and use PSAAR at:

Causes of Low Female LibidoMarch 21st, 2012
While men almost always have a high sex drive, the same thing cannot be said for women. While women enjoy sex just as much as men, there is a clear difference between men and women regarding sex drive. Many women suffer from a low female libido (sex drive) for a variety of reasons. If you suffer from a low female libido, perhaps one of these reasons is what is causing it:
Depression – Depression has been linked to a low sex drive in both men and women. Unfortunately, anti-depressants also contribute to the problem as they further decrease sex drive.
Fatigue – In today's society, many women are forced to not only work, but take care of the home as well. This takes a lot out of a woman and can cause severe fatigue. Therefore, a woman may not be in the mood simply out of sheer exhaustion.
Sexual Pain – If a woman experiences pain or cannot achieve an orgasm her sex drive will decrease. The bad news is depending on what is causing her pain during sexual activity; there may be nothing she or her partner can do to alleviate the pain.
Surgery – If a woman recently has had a surgery in the breasts or vaginal area, chances are there is still some pain. This pain lowers female libido and will eventually get back to normal.
Relationship Issues – During a time of instability, a woman's sex drive is drastically reduced. Relationship issues could include unresolved conflicts, fighting, lack of communication, and lack of trust.
History of Sexual Abuse – Women who have been sexually abused in the past have a low female libido for obvious reasons. Obviously, there is not much you can do here other then see that she receives therapy for her traumatic experience and that you as her partner support her.
Pregnancy – Women who are pregnant or breast-feeding experience wild hormonal changes on a constant basis. A woman's sex drive may be incredibly high for three days then disappear for a week. There is not much you can do here, other then wait it out.
There are a few things you can do. If you believe the issue is discomfort during sexual intercourse or an inability to experience an orgasm, then you should consider buying a product called Provestra.
Provestra is a once a day daily supplement specially formulated to increase female libido and deliver satisfying sexual experiences. Provestra has been mentioned in national media outlets and has the support of numerous doctors and medical professionals.
Provestra is made up of all-natural ingredients, so there are no side effects. The only effects women can experience when taking Provestra include: increased sex drive, great sensation during sexual intercourse, more frequent and intense orgasms, and a better overall sexual experience.
Thousands of women have made the right decision to increase their libido by choosing Provestra. If you want to increase your sex drive or just want to experience better sexual intercourse, then Provestra is the right product for you.

From the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources
-- Warmer weather is bringing more and more people into Utah's backcountry, but many aren't hiking or mountain biking, they're hunting for shed antlers.
Every spring, shed antler hunters comb Utah's backcountry, looking for deer, elk or moose antlers that have dropped.
Those who look for shed antlers this spring should remember to search only on foot. Keep off-highway vehicle and truck only on roads and trails open to use to avoid the damage vehicles do when taken illegally off-road.
The result is often serious damage to habitat that deer, elk and other wildlife rely on. Because the ground is muddy in the spring, it's easy for vehicles to leave deep tracks that erode soil and reduce the ability of the land to support deer, elk and other wildlife.
Tire scars that are left take years to heal, and become an eyesore that causes people to further oppose OHV use and shed antler hunting.
Shed hunters are asked to follow simple rules provided by the Division of Wildlife Resources, so they can have fun collecting shed antlers without damaging the landscape and causing animals stress. Shed hunters are also asked to leave the area as good as they found it to avoid being responsible for more land closures and vehicle restrictions.
Hunters are also advised not to collect antlers attached to the skull. This restriction was enacted after conservation officers discovered trophy animals were being shot on their winter range, and during spring, poachers would return to retrieve heads and antlers of the animals they had poached.
If officers stopped and questioned them, they would say the animal the head and antlers belonged to must have died of natural causes, and they were lucky to find its antlers.
It's easy to tell a shed antler from an antler still attached to a skull plate or that's been broken off.
Shed antlers-which are legal to possess-have a rounded base, commonly called a button or burr. Antlers that are attached to a skull plate or that have been broken off of a skull plate do not have this button or burr, and may not be possessed legally.
Those who want to gather shed antlers in Utah between now and April 15, should complete a free shed antler gathering course first. For those who wait until after April 15 to gather antlers, you don't need to complete the course. The free course is available online.
Upon completion of the course, print a certificate that shows you've completed it. "And make sure you carry your certificate with you," says Mike Fowlks, law enforcement section chief for the DWR. "By law, you must have your certificate with you while you're gathering shed antlers."
If you have young children, and you've completed the course, your children don't need to complete it. If you've completed the course, your certificate will cover your kids, too. Fowlks says if you complete the course, you can gather antlers across Utah. "Please remember, though, that many of the state's wildlife management areas are closed in the spring to protect wildlife," he says.
For more information, call the nearest Division of Wildlife Resources office or the DWR's Salt Lake City office at (801)538-4700.

Harlan Ellison Tripped Up by Yahoo! Network Contributor
Interesting and familiar cautionary tale today from Michael Hinman, the Tampa, Florida keeper of sci-fi news blog Airlock Alpha.
After initially picking up on a November 2 news item, as did Syfy's Blastr.com and the Orlando Sentinel, Hinman did a little digging and found there was no truth to a report that author Harlan Ellison has settled his lawsuit against the writer-director of the Justin Timberlake-Amanda Seyfried thriller In Time. The problem in this case is that the item originated, without attribution, within the nebulous confines of Yahoo!'s Contributor Network. Writes Hinman:
No one from Yahoo! has responded to a request for comment on whether Shirey developed this story on his own, or picked it up from the Yahoo assignment desk. Shirey himself has not responded to a request for comment. He has since posted another story on one of his aggregator websites, but has not removed his Ellison story…

Howdy, Stranger!
It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
dodge7 for pointing this out. i'm gonna trade my
rado in on a new dodge right now. as it is, i'm
not concerned with enough power for towing
anyway. also, i could careless about a truck that
has a reliable tranny too. so i'm going to do the
smart thing and get me a dodge that will at least
get 3-5 trannys replaced before my warranty is
up. that way when the warranty is through i'll at
least have a brand new tranny to work on. another
good thing about dodge is that they'll never go
out of style cause dodge doesn't change the look
of the trucks right?
well dodge7, i just want to say thanks again for
showing me the light and "keep on truckin".
I like my Dodge. This Dodgeram7 kid really gets on my nerves. I thought his parents grounded him. Maybe they will take his allowance away. Maybe his lunch money too. They should make him hand-wash all their dishes. Then his fingers will be too sore to use his keyboard and his pea-brain will be too weak to think up these intilectually stimulating discussion topics.
If you own a Dodge then why are you making comments like this. I own a Dodge & if someone was tring to say something good about Dodge trucks you put them down. I think you must on a Toyota Tundra but you really want a Ram. So next time you try to put a Dodge owner down when you a Dodge yourself remember you must be a very poor Dodge owner.
I have a 98 Ram with the 24v and the lowest mpg I have evr gotten is 21 and that was a 500 mile trip through the mountains up here in Alaska in the winter averaging around 60 mph. In the summer I get right around 23 on the same trip running @75mph.From what I have seen from the Power stroke you can expect just under 20MPG for the same trip (friend has one.
That sounds great. I wish the dealer will price me a Dodge for about the same. He is doing a sells promotion and that is why the price is $ 27080 for the 2001 4x4 250 XLT SuperDuty.I think I really like the Dodge a little better.That is great MPH, I just hope that I can get that. Thanks for the response.
OBY said it right, you just annoy me dodgeram7. Doesn't matter what kind of truck you drive. I welcome USEFUL discussion on trucks, no matter what brand is being discussed. You obviously wouldn't understand that. Maybe you'll figure it out when you get through puberty.
You also might consider proof-reading your responses before you post, or have you gotten to that part of third grade english class.
My Ram is an automatic and I have not had a bit of trouble with it.
Z71bill, I have heard the same thing about dodge transmissions but do you know anyone who has problems? Up here in Alaska there is dodges everywhere and I dont know of any of them that have a tranny problem.I am not saying that none of them do I just don't know of any from the 20 or so rams people I know have.
three of our installers have the rams w/cummins
and all three have had trannys replaced before
they reached 40k. not sure why they put such a
good engine in those trucks and then put trannys
that can't handle the torque. other than that
though the're trucks have performed flawlessly.
we have a sub-contracter that has the gas version
and has now gone 60k and he pulls a trailer day
in and day out. go figure.
I think it is the heat that kills the Dodge tranny - Maybe not a problem in Alaska - but the high temp today in Houston was 105.
I have also heard - not confirmed - that Dodge engines run like sh-t in hot temps.
No power above 100 degrees. I think it has something to do with the 1970 style air intake. When is Dodge going to bring its designs into the 1980's?
the Dodge is really number one!...I better run out and get one!
and to think that a company that has sold trucks for 6 years based on looks alone (and the only period in history they have ever sold) can be number one already!...even though the sales and reliability are the pits..
wow...geee golly wizz...this is the most amazing thing I have ever heard Wally...
where can I get one?
- Tim
fordtuf Posts: 101DODGERAM7's other car is a FORD!!!! What???? A FORD!!!!! You gotta be kidding. Oh I know, it's sitting in the back yard on blocks, right?
As for reliabilty, my best friend (and he still is) bought a Dodge. In 2 years he has had 2 tranny jobs and then they gave him a new one on the 3rd trip to the dealer. He said the best thing about his Dodge was the extended warranty!!!
By the way,
I own the truck that's like,...well,...its like a truck. I didn't want a rock.
You must be sittin in the back if you are complainin' about legroom in the dodge. Chevy has a better backseat but I drive up front and the dodge cab is far superior to chevys from the drivers position- my opinion. 40,000 on my quad cab and not even a hint of a squeak or rattle.

According to the Knoxville Police Department, officers responded to a burglary and assault call on Whittle Springs Road at about 12:30 p.m. Saturday.
The victim arrived home and interrupted the burglary in progress. The suspect beat the 63-year-old and locked him in a closet. He then barricaded the closet door, preventing the victim from escaping.
The suspect then fled on foot. The victim was found a few minutes later by his daughter with injuries on his head and body, but refused medical treatment.
KPD described the suspect as a white male about 45 or 50 years of age who smells bad. He was last seen wearing a camouflage army field jacket. Police think he may be homeless.
Anyone that may have seen or can identify this suspect in the area of Whittle Springs and Boright should call police on the crime and drug hotline at 215-7212. Callers can remain anonymous.

One of the big improvements from last year is that you will now have the option to position your bike (and other gear) in the transition area on Saturday. We will provide security throughout the night, and you will not have to wait in any lines Sunday morning. Of course, you will still have the option to bring your gear on Sunday morning.
At the same time, Saturday will still be your only opportunity to pick-up your Race Packet and to finish the last set of required paperwork. It is also the best time to talk with our Sponsors and to meet the Celebrity Big Kids™. Please remember there will be NO packet pick-up on Sunday.
Here is the actual schedule of events for Saturday:
While Race Day will still begin with a sunrise service at 6:30am, the rest of the schedule of events will be new and improved. Most importantly, we have organized the day into 2 sessions for the convenience of all involved. While we encourage everyone to stay all day, the Juniors and Seniors will race in 2 distinct sessions.
Please pay careful attention to the detailed schedules below:
JUNIOR SESSION (triathlon ages 6 to 10)
SENIOR SESSION (triathlon ages 11 to 15)

How to Get Your Religion and Your Job to Coexist in Peace
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- No matter if you celebrate Christmas, Passover, Diwali or Vesak, multiple requests for time off from work for "devotional" purposes can result in an angry boss or dismissal.
Of course it's almost always possible to take time off for religious reasons, but just how much is up for debate. We checked in with experts who offered some clarity on the work vs. worship question.
Every company's policy is different, says Richard Cohen, partner at the national law firm Fox Rothschild. While some companies will require that employees use their vacation time for days spent in worship, others may ask that employees take those days as unpaid time or make up for the lost hours by altering their schedule throughout the week.
"If an employer can reasonably accommodate a person who needs to be off on the Sabbath, then they must do so," Cohen says. "The cases we see in court typically revolve around people working on the Sabbath -- a day that your religion requires you to be off."That distinction -- the religious "requirement" to be worshipping rather than working -- is an important one, Cohen says. For example, Christians are not required to attend and worship at a relative's baptism, just as Jews are not required to attend and worship at a relative's bar mitzvah. Both religions are required to keep the Sabbath holy, though. If your religion doesn't require you to be in worship on a particular day, your employer isn't technically required to give you that day off. With that said, most employers that value their staff will work to accommodate all requests.
