A new report from the OECD says governments should do more to encourage business continuity planning for a range of scenarios
PARIS - Governments should boost their efforts to improve business continuity risk management in financial firms, according to a new report penned by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).
The report, entitled 'Innovation in country risk management' and produced in conjunction with Swiss Re and Oliver Wyman, has studied business continuity management in the US, UK, Canada, Japan, the Netherlands and Singapore.
The OECD says state authorities need to work more closely with the private sector to deal with crises quickly and cost-effectively, particularly in relation to the confluence of individual events into a larger crisis situation - as witnessed in the current financial turmoil.
"Government efforts to assess large-scale risks often focus on specific types of events such as a flood or earthquake," says Jack Radisch, risk policy analyst at the OECD. "There has been a tendency for ministries, departments and regulatory agencies at various levels of government to work in parallel and separate silos.
"This form of governance is far from optimal in today's interconnected world, where risks are more complex. The current financial turbulence is a telling example of how the management of risks we face in society should be co-ordinated from A to Z."
The report says there is good progress towards a co-ordinated "all hazards" risk approach for threats such as natural disasters, major accidents, terrorism or pandemic risks. Singapore, for example, is applauded for implementing its Whole-of-Government Integrated Risk Management framework, to improve risk awareness across government agencies.
The UK government received praise for educating the public about risks by publishing various scenarios through its National Risk Register, as did similar government initiatives in Holland and Japan.
To further reduce siloing of business continuity management, the OECD suggests nations create a "country risk officer" position mirroring the chief risk officer role found in corporate organisations.

"Kingpinning" is a Brenmar-produced standout from the world of Michael Quattlebaum, who raps as Mykki Blanco, who trades in wigs and other drag elements, who told the NY Times his style is "a mixture of riot grrrl and ghetto fabulousness," and whose origin story includes writing letters to Vincent Gallo, running away to NYC, and being a go-go boy at The Cock. Quattlebaum's building a coalition, though, with Mykki Blanco, refracting his transgressive aesthetics into a milieu where he kicks it with "white boys with them yarmulkas/ model chicks with a million followers." That's an operative phrase from "Kingpinning" itself, from the Cosmic Angel: The Illuminati Prince/ss mixtape, and the Clarence Fuller-directed video shows a few sides and shades of Mykki. Get to know.

The number one question your clients should be asking about IULs
By Katherine Vessenes
Vestment Advisors
IULs can be a great solution for the right client. Unfortunately, they are complicated. As a consequence, we usually do not let a client pull the trigger on this product until we have had at least three meetings to discuss the pros and the cons. With certain clients, we may even discuss it in one or two additional meetings before delivery. We also add it to our agenda for review meetings throughout the year after they have purchased the policy.
Here is the number one question clients should be asking before they invest in an IUL: What could go wrong?
Frankly, this is such a good question, all your clients should be asking it about every investment they have. Here is what I think could go wrong with an IUL and my responses:
First: The insurance company could reduce the caps or participation rates to much lower levels than originally illustrated, making it difficult to average returns that are close to the projected estimates.
My response: Caps and participation rates are mainly a function of the insurance company's rates of return on their investment portfolios. Although bond yields are low now, they have been much higher just in the last 10 years. Since insurance companies have bonds that might go back even 30 years, in a prolonged downturn in the bond market, their average return on bonds will go down, which will mean the caps/participation rates will also go down. We always explain this to clients.
However, the same is true in reverse; as bond rates go back up, then caps and participation rates should also increase. Potentially lower caps/participation rates are why a good strategy for advisors is to only illustrate these products at a conservative illustrated rate, as opposed to the current illustrated rates. For example, we generally show nothing greater than the 100th percentile return based on historical results.
Second: Another possible problem is the insurance company could raise their expenses or mortality costs to the highest rate allowed by contract.
My response: This is a possibility; however, there is a limit by contract on the amount they can increase their expenses. Each contract is filed by the insurance company with the state insurance department, which must approve it before it is offered to clients. That filing includes both current costs, as well as guaranteed maximum costs. If the company increased expenses above the generally acceptable industry level, policyholders will vote with their feet and move their business to another company.
I also like to look at what insurance companies did during the years following the crash of 2008. That tells you a lot about the character of their management. I noticed that the companies that we use did not adjust their expenses during that time period. Generally speaking, the only time you may experience a carrier raising its rates on a block of business is if they have been taken over by the state as a result of being declared insolvent. Very unlikely to happen! Third: The insurance company may use a crediting method that relies on an index, such as the S&P 500, that goes out of favor for an extended period of time.
My response: Let's say the company is using the S&P 500, an index of the 500 largest U.S. companies. We know that since the 1920s, this index has averaged over 9 percent per year. However, during the lost decade from 2000 to 2010, the average annual return was -2.3 percent.1 The beauty of this strategy is the company, by contract, guarantees that the client's cash value will not go down, even in a down market, excluding expenses.
However, there may be different indices which are more favorable than others over time. Once again, these are not sleepy index accounts that you put in a drawer and forget about. They must be managed. The advisor should be reviewing the different index options each year and making recommendations to the client if any adjustments are needed.
Advisors should choose companies that have a number of different crediting options so they have more flexibility down the road.
Also, some companies have the right to change indices if they find one is going out of favor. One company that we like is currently using the Chinese Hang Seng Index for some of their products. This index has done gangbusters in the last few years because the Chinese market is expanding. What happens if China's growth levels out and their returns look more like a developed market? The company's top execs assured us that if that happened, they would use another index from another emerging market.
I would also recommend looking at carriers' in-force crediting rates, to understand how well they manage their existing book of business, as opposed to their rates for acquiring new business. Some carriers have an unfortunate reputation of subsidizing their new business crediting rates by reducing their in-force rates to the detriment of their existing customers.
Fourth: What if the bond rates go up, but the insurance company does not raise their caps/participation rates, thereby profiting from the difference?
This is where the marketplace keeps insurance companies honest and ethical. At the time I'm writing this, there are about 60 different insurance companies offering IULs. Their cap rates and participation rates fall within a similar range. If your company's cap/participation rate was markedly lower than the prevailing range, then we would recommend doing a 1035 exchange into another company who has historically kept their cap rates at higher levels. This works as long as the client is healthy and insurable and there are no significant surrender charges left on the policy. Note: If they were not insurable, then they will be really happy they have the existing policy.
Fifth: What if there is a prolonged market downturn (10 years or longer) and at the same time, the policyholder doesn't add any new premiums into the policy?
The first place I like to start with this question is the Japanese stock market, because many authorities believe the U.S. stock market might mirror the Japanese in the future. Since 1990, the Nikkei 225 index, represented by the red line below, has been down a whopping 76.4 percent, as of the beginning of 2013. But it is very important to realize that during those years, it was not down every single year. In fact, their market was actually up 10 times during that timeframe.
The green line represents what we call "protected returns", using the Nikkei as the standard. When the Nikkei is up, in our example, we credited up to 14 percent. In our hypothetical example above, returns are capped at 14 percent. That means if the investor would have earned 40 percent in the Nikkei, for our purposes, their account would only be credited 14 percent. Any upward movement in their account between 0 percent and 13.99 percent would be credited the full amount of the increase. You will notice, at no time does the green line dip below the previous year's set point.
As you can see, an investor investing $1,000 in the Nekkei would have had roughly $250 over this time period. Ouch! On the other hand, an investor who had money in a protected strategy that captured up to 14 percenet of the gains, but none of the losses, would have ended up with $2,500.'
Now, our example doesn't take into consideration the cost of the product, I am just trying to illustrate how the mathematical concept works.
What this graphs shows is that policyholders most likely will benefit, even in a prolonged downward market, as long as there are some years with upside returns. We have seen, even in our own stock market during the lost decade, there were years the market was up, even though the overall trend was down.
To specifically answer the question: In the unlikely event that the markets, and therefore the crediting methods, were down every single year between now and a client's retirement, and the client couldn't make any premium payments during the same time period, then there are a couple of possibilities:
Scenario one
If the client had been in the policy long enough and had sufficient cash value, then the insurance company would debit the cash value account for the cost of insurance and other fees. The client may not have to pay in any more funds to justify the death benefit. Note, the operative word here is "may." This gets back to the policy needs to be managed. We would run an in-force illustration to see where the client stands and what their options are.
Scenario two
If the client is recently in the policy and there is insufficient cash value, then the policyholder has a couple of options: One would be to reduce the death benefit and thereby reduce the cost of insurance. This would make the cash value last longer. Or, we have seen cases where we computed just the cost of the insurance and expenses and had the clients pay that smaller sum to preserve the value of the accumulation account.
From advisor to advisor, this product can be a great way for your clients to position a part of their assets to capture some of the market's upside while still getting downside protection — all in a tax-advantaged strategy.

Arlen Ness Cafe Fairing for Victory
We decided to throw one of our Ness Original Fairing kits on a Victory Vegas 8-ball we had in the shop. Arlen has been bolting on these fairings on since he was working out of his garage, and even today the timeless design is still a best seller. This is the first time we have installed the fairing on a Victory, so we fabbed up some custom mounting brackets and secured it in place.
Follow up:
The fairing gives the Vegas a bitchin' look and flows great with the bike's lines. In addition to the new look, the fairing provides the rider with some needed wind protection.
We threw out the stock headlight and slapped on a Ness stretched bullet 5 3/4" headlight with visor (Part# 08-339) which works great with the fairing. The stock handlebar set up wasn't going to cut it either with the new fairing so we installed Santa Rosa V-Twin's Victory riser and handlebar combo to fix the problem.
We are currently working on direct bolt on fairing kit for the Victory but for now any Victory Vegas rider can take one of our universal fairing kits (Part# 06-041 and fab up some custom mounting brackets with ease.

The students have sketched designs and constructed the garment for their "client" during the month of September, utilizing the shopping bags and a budget of $25 for other fabric and materials.
At 12:00 p.m. on October 6, the sensational outfits will be revealed and modeled on the catwalk by the dynamic members of the Junior League of Central Westchester. The fashions will be judged by a distinguished panel, with a top winner and runner-up declared for each school. Each top winning student will receive a $300 American Express® Simon Giftcard®, with runners-up each receiving a $100 American Express® Simon Giftcard®, exposure on The Westchester's Simon Fashion Now runway and a real-life experience to take on their career path. Shoppers are encouraged to be front and center as the students and models take the stage in Nordstrom Court.

After deploying to Sandy stricken areas, some local firefighters found a new way to help those affected by the hurricane.
Greece Fire agencies started "Fill the Truck," a Hurricane Sandy effort, bringing supplies to Long Island. The Greece Fire Agencies are partnering with Greece Volunteer Ambulance, Greece Central School District and the Northwest YMCA for this event.
Residents are asked to donate books, toys, canned goods and more. All donated items will be delivered to Freeport, Long Island.
Volunteer firefighter Al Camp says every little donation is a big help.
Camp said, "The items we're collecting, new toys, books, pet food, and canned goods won't give them the final solution they need, but it will give them some relief over the holidays.
Donations are being collected at ten different sites around Greece. Visit North Greece Fire Department for more information.

Green Your Laser Printer
What makes a printer GREEN?
Of course using recycled toner cartridges is probably the most important thing you can do. You may have tried this already, and decided this isn't for you but the question is whether the quality of the cartridge you tried was really state of the art? The recycled toner industry has developed into an over $5 billion market.
The quality of the cartridges available vary greatly and we work with you to get you a product that will perform as well and last as long as a "new" cartridge.
If you are now using recycled toner two important GREEN questions to ask are:
We source our recycled toners form US recyclers only. Over 90% come from Southern California. We have minimum order levels to our providers to keep the carbon footprint to a minimum.
We take back the empty core from our toners and either get them back into use or we get them to a bulk material recycler who breaks them down for use in products like asphalt. This sometimes carries a cost to us but we think it's important.
Duplex printing (printing your document on both side of the page) is also very important. This can be done manually or automatically. We can help you determine which is best for you and if there are upgrades available for your printer when automatic is the best way for you. When ordering new printers we can help you in assuring the options you need are built into the printer you select.
Reuse of paper is another way you can cut both cost and waste. Keeping a stack of "used" paper next to your printer and use it in the main or manual feed tray when printing drafts or internal documents. We keep our used paper in the main tray and load new paper when it is needed. Better yet a lot of printers have add on trays that allow you to switch between used and new from your computer. For around $200 to $300 you can make reuse of paper very convenient.
Some tips on used paper!! Never mix paper from copiers and printers. They use different temperatures to "fuse" the toner to the paper and this can cause black streaks on the backside of the page if the toner de-fuses at a higher temperature. It's also not a good idea to mix color printouts with monochrome printers (though mono can be used on color) or inkjet on laser (though laser is ok in inkjet) none of this will cause damage to your printer though!!! There is one hazard however and that's a staple!! Anything that has been stapled should go straight to the recycle bin, even if the staple has been removed
Lastly keeping your printer serviced correctly with high quality "green" parts is very important. Most electronic components and sub assemblies are "rebuilt these days for printers and computers. Who rebuilds these parts and where they do it makes a difference! As with toner if the "dead" part is sent to China to be rebuilt then back for use here it has a BIG carbon footprint and usually like toner lower quality. Again we use only US suppliers that rebuild parts to meet or exceed the manufacturer's specifications. The cost is higher but that is usually offset by longer part life and fewer paper jams (never try to use paper that has been crumpled)
Small parts like feed rollers can be made less expensive by using cheaper rubber and plastic. The cheaper rubber tends to "chip" though and this increases jams and the rubber "dust" can get into places that will cause damage to your printer or the toner cartridge. We replace rollers with OEM (original equipment manufacturer) parts.
Most printers no longer need preventative maintenance (if you are using quality reman or OEM toner) as they have internal counters that flash a Maintenance Message. This trigger means it's time for the wear and tear items that are known to fail to be replaced.
If one of these parts is called the transfer roller is often either not replaced or replaced with one of poor quality. The transfer roller electro statically pulls the toner from the cartridge onto the paper. If this is not done effectively toner particulate can escape transfer and be instead blown throughout the printer wear it can cause increase wear, poor image quality and be blasted into the office environment for you to breath.
You may remember that study released awhile back? You may have noticed that one model of printer landed in two categories – High Emitter and Low Emitter. We think this was due to a bad or worn transfer roller being present in the High Emitter.
Many Maintenance Kits (the package contains all the parts to resolve the maintenance message) have inferior transfer rollers or lack adequate instructions for untrained technicians to install them correctly.
Is it time to replace your old printer? A lot of people see a high repair bill as being the signal. What happens though is they buy that new printer and then face the same repair bill about 100,000 to 200,000 pages later If they had had the repair done instead they would have gotten the same number of pages from the new wear and tear parts. This would have saved them money in the long run and kept another printer from the landfill.
Are you buying the right printer? Inkjet printers are not meant to be repaired. Parts are not usually available from the manufacturer, or any other sources. Even wear and tear parts! This equates to a moderately used printer requiring replacement about every 3 years!!! Color laser printers and MFP's have come way down in price and by choosing laser over inkjet you can not only get more than twice the life span, you will also usually more that save the added equipment cost in supplies alone.
If you are considering a new printer (some lasers are greener than others) or have any questions regarding how to minimize your laser printing's impact on the environment, give us a call.

December is always a time for celebration and delicious food, especially for us, Filipinos, who love to eat. I always enjoy partaking in these festivities. Although, I dread the holidays, because of the weight I gain during the season. After all the joy and good food, for me, January always seems to be a stressful and not to mention, a strenuous month, since I know that I have to get back into shape for the new year.
This December, I will be 6 months pregnant, but this should not be a reason for me to not watch my food intake. In fact, the more I should be wary that I don't get to take in too much fatty, salty and sweet food. But hear yea! Good news is here from Splenda for people like me!
I asked my doctor if I can take in alternative sweeteners while pregnant, so that I can stay fit and eat healthy. She mentioned that I can take SPLENDA. Splenda is safe for pregnant women. It's the only brand of healthy alternative sweetener that can help you live healthy without giving up on the sweet taste you love. That was indeed good news, since I was really a Splenda user. What I like about Splenda, ever since I started using it years ago, is that there are no bitter aftertastes. It tastes as if you are really using sugar. From that time onwards, I always use Splenda for my coffee and other meals.
Now that I'm pregnant, I have weird cravings. I don't like sweets except for cheesecake. I'm really excited since even if it's dessert, I can still enjoy it without being afraid of my health and the health of the baby, because I can enjoy cheesecake with Splenda.
To tell you honestly, I'm not so much a cook as I am a foodie. But for people like me who would love to enjoy a healthy meal or in this case, a healthy dessert that is easy to make, I borrowed this recipe from Splenda's facebook page for No Bake Cherry Cheesecake. Why this particular recipe? One, it looks delicious so you can actually serve it to family and friends during this season. Two, for those who are watching what they eat this season, this is a great dish. Three, there was no mention of using an oven (which was great for me!). There was just mixing and buying the ingredients!
Just to share with you, here is the recipe I followed.
I just followed this and voila, this is what I made! All you have to do is get a little cute 'platito' and it is ready to be served.
See, you can actually enjoy delicious and healthy meals with Splenda. Splenda makes all things possible. Try out this recipe and share with me your thoughts on this. Have a healthy happy holiday!
P.S. This is a sponsored post from Splenda. Ej and I and our families love Splenda and we really use it so we were happy to do this review!

Robin Powell Becomes President At Biotech Leader Divine Skin (DSKX)
MIAMI BEACH, Fla., July 25, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Rising star Divine Skin Inc. (DSKX), which has been expanding the hair-growth sector, announced the appointment of Robin Powell, a long-time leader in the cosmetics industry, to become its president.
"I was coaxed out of retirement by Divine Skin because I believe their innovative products are unmatched in the hair-care industry," said Powell. "They give proven results with a 'wow' factor."
A dozen Divine Skin shampoos, conditioners, and leave-in treatments have multiplied the options available for men and women with hair loss. Unlike mass-market competitors, Divine Skin's products come both with and without minoxidil and incorporate complex peptides, androgen inhibitors, procyanidin, and other proven compounds, many encapsulated for greater absorption and efficacy.
"At a time when there are so many brands competing for a share of the business, this uniqueness facilitates entry into new markets and builds repeat business," added Powell, who joined Divine Skin as head of global business development and began growing distribution almost immediately. In May the company announced new agreements with four regional distributors that sell to 27,000 salons and hair-care professionals across 14 US states.Robin Powell's long line of successful ventures includes Sebastian and TIGI. He joined Sebastian in its early days and was responsible for building international distribution prior to its sale to Wella, later acquired by Procter & Gamble. Then he joined TIGI and propelled distribution into a hundred countries prior to its sale to Unilever. "I am delighted to offer my guidance and experience," said Powell. "With the team we now have in place, I believe Divine Skin has an incredible future and will continue to grow at a remarkable pace." About Divine Skin Divine Skin Inc. leads in the development of biotechnology for topical, nutritional, and pharmaceutical therapies. It markets worldwide through online and specialty retailers, cosmetics wholesalers, salons, and medical offices. The fast-growing company went public in 2009.

Control your mouse with your voice, if you don't mind sounding crazy
Using a mouse to navigate a computer is certainly convenient, at least it is if you have working arms and hands. For the disabled, however, it's much harder. That's why researchers from the University of Washington have developed a mouse that's controlled via various sounds you can make with your mouth.
So how does it work, exactly? Well, saying "ahh" moves the cursor up and to the right. "Ooo" will send it straight down, while "ohh" sends it down and to the right. To click, make a soft clicking sound. It allows a relatively precise way of controlling the mouse without needing to use your hands at all. And while yes, it might make you sound a little crazy as you control your computer, it's certainly better than not controlling the mouse at all.

The reconciliation of underlying earnings before tax to the most comparable IFRS measure is provided in Note 3 "Segment information" of Aegon's Condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

Aegon may define and calculate market consistent value of new business differently than other companies. Aegon believes that these non-GAAP measures, together with the IFRS information, provide meaningful supplemental information that Aegon's management uses to run its business as well as useful information for the investment community to evaluate Aegon's business relative to the businesses of its peers. Local currencies and constant currency exchange rates This document contains certain information about Aegon's results, financial condition and revenue generating investments presented in USD for the Americas and GBP for the United Kingdom, because those businesses operate and are managed primarily in those currencies.

Elizabeth2585:Hmm... My baby must be very peculiar because she absolutely loves her swing, she will take 3 hour naps in there everyday but it is the kind where they are almost Laying down. She loves her vibrating bouncy seat, although she won't tolerate it as long as the swing . She loves her binky she very rarely won't take it. I agree the wipe warmer is useless. Also newborn cutesy outfits , the onesies are great she is still in newborn onesies and she is 11 weeks , but the uncomfortable cutesy outfits drive me nuts !
Us, too. She didn't like the swing at first, but it has been a life saver. She naps in it all the time.
We just have too much clothing. Honestly. Maybe it will change when I go back to work, but staying on top of laundry now is pretty easy--we don't need 20 onesies, no matter how cute.
LO doesn't like the Moby or the Maya. I might not buy another til we try it out (hopefully borrow from a friend).
LO hates our vibrating bouncy chair as much as DS. That would be our useless. That and baby shoes. They will not stay on her feet, and even if they did, they would still be useless. Add 80% of the socks we own as well.
Our swing is the holy grail of nap time. We could not live without it.
KateRN08:Unless your baby has reflux... We go through so many receiving blankets a day.Trish625:Receiving blankets. Useless.
My LO doesn't have reflux and we still go through min. 3 of them a day. We use them as burp clothes. Lay them under her etc. She spits up on them all the time when we're burping.

Good for Small Places
By Ben Wharton from San Anselmo, CA on Oct 28, 2012
Casual Do-It-Yourselfer
The unit has no bulging detector or bulbs. its small, compact. At first glance it doesn't appear to be security light. Downside is limited adjustment of bulbs and detector. Perfect for top of stairs or under eaves with Angle about 130 degrees. This is my 3rd unit in 11 years and i'd rate it better than most in price range. Plastic constuction in sturdy enough but I mount it high out of harm's way. The big detector lens covers and hides the motion adjustments(i like this feature), on last unit a leg broke off lens disabling detector after 4 years. I replaced it with lens from older unit and it works fine. I had it in both brown and white colors. There is also a blinking red light when in operation, I painted it over hiding it.

Bassett employee injured during attempted robbery in Cooperstown
COOPERSTOWN, N.Y. (WKTV) - Authorities are searching for a suspect in an early morning incident in the Village of Cooperstown on Wednesday that left a woman injured. According to the Cooperstown Police Department, the incident happened at 5 a.m. Wednesday in the area of Beaver Street and Fair Street in the village. Police say a Bassett Medical Center employee was approached by a white male, roughly 5' 4" - 5' 6" tall and around 160 pounds, asking for her wallet. When no wallet was produced, police said the male suspect struck the victim with a sharp instrument. At that time, the male suspect was believed to be wearing a sweatshirt and dirty blue jeans, fleeing the scene on foot towards Susquehanna Ave in the Village of Cooperstown. The suspect was believed to be around 20 years old with teeth in extremely poor condition. The female victim received treatment at Bassett's Emergency Room and was released. No further information is being released about the victim, police said. Cooperstown Police were assisted at the scene by Bassett Medical Center Seucirty, Otsego County Sheriff's Office and the New York State Police out of Richfield Springs. The investigation is ongoing and any person with information pertinent to the case is asked to contact Cooperstown Police at 604-547-2500. All calls will be kept confidential. Police say that as of this writing, all investigative leads appear to be unrelated to an earlier assault that occurred in May of this year.

Prof. Stephen Stern, chair and associate professor of the Religious Studies Department at Gettysburg College, spoke with FOX43 yesterday evening regarding recent developments in Syria and the possibility of a strike by the United States.
"We know [chemical weapons] were used. The smoking gun comes from Israel.

Mobile County Public Schools' Superintendent Martha Peek shut her door to the media Wednesday, July 2 after several teachers and principal transfers were approved at a special called board meeting.
In that meeting, Mobile County School Board members voted to transfer former J.E. Turner Principal Missy Nolen to Envision Virtual Academy. It's an online school system for grades 6th -12th that's starting up this August.
Lynn Huey, now former director and coordinator of Talents Unlimited, will take Nolen's spot.
"I'm excited to go for turner it's a wonderful school so I'm excited about that," Huey said.
Teachers file grievance/transferred
Nolen, who never returned FOX10 news' calls, was the subject of controversy at J.E turner Elementary this year. In fact, 26 teachers filed a grievance against Nolan during the 2013-2014 school year. "The last administration was lack of communication. And they just wanted to be treated as professionals," said Danny Goodwin with the Alabama Education Association.
After 20 JE turner teachers were handed mandatory transfers at the end of the school year, parents and students picketed demanding the teachers stay. "If this continues and Mrs. Nolen is in office when next year rolls around, my child will be pulled out of school," one parent voiced at that time.
On June 20, according to the Mobile County Public School System's website, J.E. Turner Elementary School was looking for a new principal. However, when FOX10 News asked Peek if the position was vacant she said "not right now, no there's not." Peek said, "What you'll see on the website are a number of vacancies that will begin to roll up because we have to work by law within a time period to advertise things."
Teaching spots open at Turner?
Goodwin said some J.E. Turner teachers have been placed in different schools. Others are still waiting for the legal process to play out. "It may be that they're offered jobs at Turner since there's a new principal. That's going to be the person talking to them about coming back to Turner," Goodwin said. Huey said she plans to meet with the teachers and see what direction they'd like to take. She said working with the HR staff, she will work with the teacher's futures.
Michael Davidson, who has a child at the school, said he wishes the issues at the school has been resolved sooner but he's excited for the change in administration prior to the start of the news school year.
"We'd love to have those teachers back," Davidson said.
"Everything we do from here on will be what's best for the children so that will be my stand on everything, on every decision I make," Huey said. "The adults come into play buts it's really important we focus on our probity in the school."

This item shipped in 6 boxes (one of them was empty,so 5) and was easy to assemble; it just took a while. It's a beautiful, glamorous, low-key bed. Our mattress is 15 inches deep and hits the first horizontal line on the headboard, so with pillows, you can only see the next line up. I wish overstock went into more detail with their descriptions so that I would've known how deep of a mattress to get. In any case, I love the bed's color, fabric, style and quality. The platform bed makes the ceilings look higher so we're glad we decided to forego the box spring! The headboard is about 6 inches deep, so while I'm shopping for a nightstand, I can temporarily rest my glasses on the headboard!
I love this bed. We use our mattress only on top and it is quite comfortable. The headboard is not tall, so please consider that--it peeks over our pillows about 4-6 inches if they are propped up. While I would like it to be slightly higher, I love the bed anyway.
This platform bed has absolutely transformed our bedroom into an example of modern elegance. We loved the classic look of the tufted buttons in the headboard, and the natural cream color lets the other interior design elements of the room, like our rugs, chairs and hanging artwork, really come through. And the price is right. Very happy with this purchase. Arrived in perfect condition, on time. And it was very easy to assemble.
The only thing we love more about our new platform bed is the really low price! This modern, minimalist vibe of this piece really comes through and gives our bedroom a nice buttoned-up feel, kind of like the tufting of the headboard. The neutral cream upholstery is a nice even-toned hue that goes with everything else in the room. The overall structure is sound and the non-marking feet is a simple yet much appreciated detail.
I know this was mentioned by another reviewer and I took a chance anyway, but the fabric is more of a chenille than twill. Twill is more of the color description. I wish Overstock would have either listed the fabric or displayed a close up picture to better see the texture. Otherwise, the bed was easy to assemble, came quickly and a deal for the price. As always, Overstock was wonderful to deal with.
We love this bed. Great quality and value. Very sturdy. We have an A-Frame so the wall is sloped. The head board is a perfect height so it tucks in nicely. Looks a lot more expensive.
Purchased the king size for our master bedroom. The bed arrived in perfect condition and was easy to put together. It looks very chic, exactly as in the picture. Two reasons why I rated the quality of the product as Good instead of Excellent. The first is that we added plywood over the wood slats to give the mattress extra stability (this was recommended by some of the previous reviewers). The second reason is because the mattress we purchased does not completely fill in the width of the platform bed; there's about a 2-inch difference. I always thought mattresses were standardized, we purchase a Euro style mattress without the cushioning many American mattresses include.
After a long search for a new platform bed, this choice was perfect. I was looking for something that did not have a high headboard since it had to fit under some windows. This looks like it was custom fit for the space. The assembly was really simple, took about an hour. This bed has a nice simple, elegant look without the big price tag!
This is a good looking bed, I like the color and dimensions. Unfortunately it's cheaply made. I've had it for just under a year (10 months) and the supports have already begun to crack and split. If you buy this (though you shouldn't) you'll need to supplement the center-row supports with sturdier blocks of wood.
What a beautiful bed! We bought one for our guest room and when our daughter & hubby slept in it for the week, they left with one on their christmas wish list! We granted their wish and they absolutely love theirs too! Nice & sturdy! Best of all it is made with beautiful fabric!

Have you been searching for the best eye wrinkle treatment but can' seem to find one that work. This is a very common problem amongst people who are experiencing wrinkles under the eyes, foreheads and other parts of their face. It can be like searching for a needle in a haystack looking for a wrinkle cream that delivers on its promise.
To find an effective eye wrinkle cream you should find one that is able to address the root cause of the wrinkles. Most creams cannot do this all they do is provide some moisture, but they do not have the ability to penetrate the skin and give deep down repair and rejuvenation.
Wrinkles are caused mainly from the loss of collagen and elastin in the skin. As you get older your body produces less of these two important skin proteins. This leads to lines, wrinkles and sagging skin.
Wrinkles under the eyes are also caused by a buildup of hemoglobin and fluid in the skin under the eyes and because the skin in this area is thin it leads to fluid leaking into the sack causing bags to form as well.
As you age the capillaries under the eyes becomes weak leading to drainage of fluid. Finding an eye serum that has the ability to fix all these problems would certainly be the best thing that can happen to you.
Apart from all these problems eye wrinkles can also be caused from excess exposure to the UV rays of the sun without proper protection. Wearing sunglasses and applying natural moisturizer would also help to heal and repair the delicate, thin skin under the eyes.
One way to enhance the appearance of your skin is by eating healthy nutritious meals consisting of lots of fruits, vegetables, nuts and fish. These will provide you with essential nutrients that will give your body antioxidants which are necessary for healthy skin. Fish such as mackerel, tuna, salmon and hoki are high in essential fatty acids. Essential fatty acids are truly the most essential things to keep your skin looking younger.
Finding the best under eye wrinkle cream will definitely enhance your appearance as it works to reduce the appearance of the wrinkles, however you must know what to look for in order to find the best cream
Here is a list of ingredients you should look for in an eye serum if you want optimum result. They have been scientifically proven to give the best result.
1. Eyeliss
2. HomeoAge
3. Haloxyl
4. Xtend TK
5. Natural Vitamin E
6. Phytessence Wakame
Finding the best eye wrinkle treatment containing these ingredients will help improve your appearance and make you look at least 10 years younger.

Adventures in Macland... my experiences with ConfigMgr 2012 and Macs Conclusion
by, 15th May 2013 at 01:36 PM (13070 Views)
So, At the end of my last blog entry I asked which agent is better: The Microsoft or the Parallels one? This isn't really very clear cut but lets try to answer the question.
So in the blue corner, we have the Microsoft native client. Its advantages are:
- Native Solution
- On the whole, easier to create and add applications to the ConfigMgr console
- A Client side GUI
Disadvantages are:
- Treats the Macs as mobile clients so therefore requires the use of HTTPS secured MPs and DPs
- Not especially stable
- Awkward to install the Mac-side client
- Takes a long time to install multiple applications
- It took them four full months after the release of SP1 to start supporting Mountain Lion, an operating system which has been available since July last year. Microsoft have apparently made a commitment to supporting new versions of OSX within six months. However, considering that OS X is on a yearly release cycle that doesn't really do anyone much good.
- No remote control client
- You need to repackage applications for them to be deployed
In the red corner, we have Parallels. Its advantages are:
- Supported Mountain Lion right off the bat and according to their developers they'll attempt to get support for new versions of OS X within thirty days
- Doesn't require HTTPS support inside your ConfigMgr infrastructure
- Easier to install the Mac-side client
- Has proven to be more stable
- Don't need to repackage applications
- Simpler to create settings to deploy to the clients
- Remote control client included
Disadvantages are:
- It's VERY expensive. And you buy it on a yearly subscription too.
- No client-side GUI. You have no idea of what's going on unless you delve into the logs. This includes whether deployments have succeeded or not.
- Setting up packages is more complicated and needs more trial and error.
- It uses legacy Packages to deploy software to the Macs rather than the new style Applications. It's possible that these won't survive into the next major ConfigMgr release.
- Needs its own DP and MP if you're running HTTPS
- Even if you're only running HTTP, you'll probably need another server to put the PMA Proxy on to.
There is one thing which the Parallels agent does which Microsoft doesn't do even for Windows clients and that is triggering a Machine Policy and Evaluation Cycle from the ConfigMgr console. Which is nice considering you can't from the client
There are certain things which both agents do as well as one another, namely inventory and operating system updates.
Neither product supports the deployment of the operating system at the moment. Maybe that will come later, who knows?
On the whole, I think that the Parallels product is better, if only because deploying software is that little bit more reliable. We made the decision to buy it (just before MS released SP1 CU1 to include ML support. Dang!) and I don't regret it. Hopefully I'll be saying the same in a years time.

Dixie Dairy coming down, memories still strong
By Carole Carlson email@example.com March 21, 2012 4:14PM
A view through an open loading dock shows Josh Strominski of Gary Material Supply operating an excavator to bring down the former Dixie Dairy Company building at 15th Avenue and Pierce Street in Gary, Ind. Wednesday March 21, 2012. The neighborhood eyesore is finally being demolished. | Stephanie Dowell~Sun-Times Media

Updated: April 23, 2012 11:36AM
GARY — A bright yellow excavator is chipping away at Dixie Dairy, once a landmark business that made fresh milk deliveries during the city's boom years.
Motorists driving by the site Wednesday rolled down their windows to gape. "Bout time," one driver yelled.
The city's Redevelopment Department is demolishing the old dairy at 1200 W. 15th Ave., after years of complaints from neighbors about its deteriorating condition.
City Councilwoman Carolyn Rogers, D-4th, led the charge to knock down the old dairy.
"That's something residents have been talking to me about over the years. It's horrendous. The building is partially on the ground."
She said demolition was begun a few years ago but halted when it was discovered the proper permits hadn't been issued.
The city's Redevelopment Department is overseeing the demolition which is being done by Gary Material Supply. A worker said the demolition would take about three weeks.
A survivor's story
Dixie Dairy beat the odds for decades. It opened in October 1929 — the month the stock market crashed. "It's kind of a miracle the company survived," said Dixie Dairy's former president Thomas Eskilson, 69, who now lives in Zionsville.
He said his grandfather, dairy founder Christian B. Eskilson, kept the company alive by virtue of his reputation and integrity, during the Depression.
He told his family not to worry. "Boys, remember, in every market there will always be room for one or two good independents. Make sure you are one of them."
A Danish immigrant, Christian Eskilson, who had the equivalent of an eighth-grade education, arrived in the U.S. in 1895.
Four years later, his dairy empire began with two horse-drawn milk routes in Chicago's Englewood neighborhood. He soon found a Danish partner and opened a dairy in Beecher, Ill. He purchased bottling operations in Harvey and Chicago Heights and named the business Dixie Dairy Co. in 1922 after the highway his dairies shared.
An immigrant friend told Eskilson about a blossoming city in Northwest Indiana and encouraged him to take a look. Eskilson came to Gary and bought a couple small dairies and then built his largest dairy on 15th Avenue.
The dairy's last horse-drawn wagon was replaced by a motorized truck in 1939. Eskilson died in 1941 at age 63. His son, Eskil Eskilson and later grandson, Thomas Eskilson, would go on to run the company. At its height, the company employed more than 200 employees.
In the early 1950s while business was strong, Dixie milk cartons were built over brick pillars on the 15th Avenue front of the business. "Miss Dixie," a little girl holding a carton of milk and an umbrella, adorned the milk cartons.
End of an era
By the 1970s, the dairy market dynamics were changing. Thomas Eskilson, who became president in 1982, said home delivery ended in 1976 as more and more women got jobs. His father, sensing the need to diversify, led the company to establish Zip Foods Inc., a small chain of convenience stores the family later sold.
With his family seeking to cash out their equity, Thomas Eskilson was forced to close the production plant and sell the equipment in 1999.
The dairy was sold in 2000 but the new owner couldn't secure the necessary financing.
Thomas Eskilson said he remembers learning the business the hard way during in the 1960s.
"I worked summers there, in high school and college. I started on home delivery milk routes. I have the last truck that wasn't refrigerated."

Lovely! I've signed up for millinery classes (which will start in September) and every time I see a great hat design like this, I get more excited about it.
Aug 16, 2014, 12.49 PMby schnui
Thank-you and I hope you will love millinery as much as I do. It isn't difficult but it is time consuming. But I am sure you won't mind spending time making a special hat.
Aug 16, 2014, 07.05 AMby Ellen Hatteland
How elegant and lovely!! :)
Aug 16, 2014, 12.46 PMby schnui
Thanks Ellen. My daughter wants this hat and it looks lovely on her.
Aug 16, 2014, 05.18 AMby schnui
I added the edge after draping but draped again after I added the Sinamay. Sinamay drapes easily when damped with a fine spray of water.

From our archives: Atomic Doodle
Posted on | April 14, 2009 | 3 Comments
In the years following World War II many designers cast off the past constraints of traditional design and restrictions imposed by the war, and began to seek some new and often very experimental directions for product design… and manufacturers readily embraced these. Youthful, energetic and "Contemporary" in style, wallpaper patterns inspired by scientific discovery as well as the latest in art and architecture gave rise to a whole new design aesthetic, full of abstraction, boomerang motifs and "sputnik-like" doodles.
This American-made pattern, (probably from United Wallpaper), part of a vintage lot we purchased out of a barn in Ohio, offers a playful sample of the inventiveness of many wallpaper designers during the "Atomic Age".
