The wearisome goddess Erida can best be understood by reading the opening lines of Book 11 of The Iliad. After Eos [Dawn] sheds her gentle light on mortals and Immortals alike, Zeus sends Erida to the encampment of the Achaians (Achaeans). She stands on the centermost of the beached vessels and SCREAMS!!! The hearts of the soldiers are hardened as they awaken. They no longer remember their fathers or their wives and children. They rise from their beds with the screams of Hate ringing in their ears. In their hearts, they long for the sweetness of battle. Only blood will dispel the sanguine thrust that Erida has evoked.
[from four different translations]
In the following excerpts, none of the translators use the name Erida … Richmond Lattimore calls her Hate but the other three call her Strife, which might be confusing to some readers because the goddess Eris is often referred to as Strife as well as Discord.

3 days left to apply for the Google Summer of Code
Students, this Friday at 1900 UTC is the deadline to apply for this year's GSoC. It's an awesome program that pays you to work on open-source projects for a summer (where you == a university/college student).
It's by no means too late, but start your application today. You can find more information on Gentoo's projects here (click on the Ideas page to get started; also see our application guidelines) and on the broader GSoC program here.
Good luck!
OSCON meetups: FLOSS lunch, RedMonk beer
It's been a few years, but I used to have an OSCON tradition of getting a bunch of interesting people together for lunch, from a variety of free-software and open-source communities.
This year I'm suggesting we do the same, on Wednesday of OSCON week. Let me know in the comments or via email if you're interested.
I'll also be hosting a RedMonk beering, beginning Wednesday night around 9:30–10pm. Location TBD, watch the Twitters.
Update (2013/07/19): Beers will begin around 9:30pm Wednesday at Bailey's Taproom (213 SW Broadway, which is downtown). The place is open till midnight and we'll likely be there till then.
Get paid to write open-source software this summer
If you're a university student, time is running out! You could get paid to hack on Gentoo or other open-source software this summer, but you've gotta act now. The deadline to apply for the Google Summer of Code is this Friday.
If this sounds like your dream come true, you can find some Gentoo project ideas here and Gentoo's GSoC homepage here. For non-Gentoo projects, you can scan through the GSoC website to find the details.
Opportunities for Gentoo
When I've wanted to play in some new areas lately, it's been a real frustration because Gentoo hasn't had a complete set of packages ready in any of them. I feel like these are some opportunities for Gentoo to be awesome and gain access to new sets of users (or at least avoid chasing away existing users who want better tools):
- Data science. Package Hadoop. Package streaming options like Storm. How about related tools like Flume? RabbitMQ is in Gentoo, though. I've heard anecdotally that a well-optimized Hadoop-on-Gentoo installation showed double-digit performance increases over the usual Hadoop distributions (i.e., not Linux distributions, but companies specializing in providing Hadoop solutions). Just heard from Tim Harder (radhermit) than he's got some packages in progress for a lot of this, which is great news.
- DevOps. This is an area where Gentoo historically did pretty well, in part because our own infrastructure team and the group at the Open Source Lab have run tools like CFEngine and Puppet. But we're lagging behind the times. We don't have Jenkins or Travis. Seriously? Although we've got Vagrant packaged, for example, we don't have Veewee. We could be integrating the creation of Vagrant boxes into our release-engineering process.
- Relatedly: Monitoring. Look for some of the increasingly popular open-source tools today, things like Graphite, StatsD, Logstash, Lumberjack, ElasticSearch, Kibana, Sensu, Tasseo, Descartes, Riemann. None of those are there.
- Cloud. Public cloud and on-premise IaaS/PaaS. How about IaaS: OpenStack, CloudStack, Eucalyptus, or OpenNebula? Not there, although some work is happening for OpenStack according to Matthew Thode (prometheanfire). How about a PaaS like Cloud Foundry or OpenShift? Nope. None of the Netflix open-source tools are there. On the public side, things are a bit better — we've got lots of AWS tools packaged, even stretching to things like Boto. We could be integrating the creation of AWS images into our release engineering to ensure AWS users always have a recent, official Gentoo image.
- NoSQL. We've got a pretty decent set here with some holes. We've got Redis, Mongo, and CouchDB not to mention Memcached, but how about graph databases like Neo4j, or other key-value stores like Riak, Cassandra, or Voldemort?
- Android development. Gentoo is perfect as a development environment. We should be pushing it hard for mobile development, especially Android given its Linux base. There's a couple of halfhearted wiki pages but that does not an effort make. If the SDKs and related packages are there, the docs need to be there too.
Where does Gentoo shine? As a platform for developers, as a platform for flexibility, as a platform to eke every last drop of performance out of a system. All of the above use cases are relevant to at least one of those areas.
I'm writing this post because I would love it if anyone else who wants to help Gentoo be more awesome would chip in with packaging in these specific areas. Let me know!
Update: Michael Stahnke suggested I point to some resources on Gentoo packaging, for anyone interested, so take a look at the Gentoo Development Guide. The Developer Handbook contains some further details on policy as well as info on how to get commit access by becoming a Gentoo developer.
Video: Package management and creation in Gentoo Linux
As one of my four talks at FOSDEM, I gave one on Gentoo titled "Package management and creation in Gentoo Linux." The basic idea was, what could packagers and developers of other, non-Gentoo distros learn from Gentoo's packaging format and how it's iterated on that format multiple times over the years. It's got some slides but the interesting part is where we run through actual ebuilds to see how they've changed as we've advanced through EAPIs (Ebuild APIs), starting at 16:39.
If you click through to YouTube, the larger (but not fullscreen) version seems to be the easiest to read.
It was scaled from 720×576 to a 480p video, so if you find it too hard to read the code, you can view the original WebM here.
On package management: Negating the downsides of bundling
App developers and end users both like bundled software, because it's easy to support and easy for users to get up and running while minimizing breakage. How could we come up with an approach that also allows distributions and package-management frameworks to integrate well and deal with issues like security? I muse upon this over at my RedMonk blog.
How to recruit open-source contributors
I just posted a video and write-up on how to recruit open-source contributors over on my RedMonk blog. It's based on my years of experience as admin for Gentoo's involvement in the Google Summer of Code, where I've greatly increased our ability to recruit students as long-term developers. Check it out.

Cheshire council pushes commission to complete locker room renovations
|Republican American archive A deteriorating locker room inside Cheshire HIgh School.
CHESHIRE — Public Building Commission members have come under pressure to complete a locker room renovation project at Cheshire High School next summer.
The Town Council referred the project to the commission earlier this year to review, send out to bid and oversee its construction. The referral followed the council's decision last year to quash a $2 million proposal to build an athletic complex that would have included new locker rooms.

Students place donated food items into the back of a Shepard High School mini-bus for delivery. | Supplied Photo
Updated: January 3, 2013 6:14AM
Students and teachers from Shepard High School recently continued a tradition more than a quarter century in the making: They delivered turkeys, stuffing, potatoes and canned goods to more than 30 area families unable to pick up their Thanksgiving meals.
The Jerry Lemon Food Drive, named for the teacher who founded the project in the 1980s, fed hundreds, school officials said. Some received deliveries of food, while others drove to Shepard to pick up their donations.
More will benefit at Christmas when teachers and students attempt to refill the large storage room in the Shepard basement with food and gifts.
"Despite an economy that has thinned family budgets, the Shepard community again rose to help those living in need," a school spokesman said.
The event traces its history to some good fortune.
Lemon, a health teacher, had asked his students to bring in labels from canned foods to discuss nutritional information. Too lazy to peel off the labels, many just brought the cans so Lemon chose to donate them to an area food pantry.
In the years that followed, the food drive evolved. After Lemon retired, Shepard teacher Glenn Simms managed the food drive for 20 years before retiring in 2008. He involved more teachers, parents and Shepard clubs to grow the food drive project into a much larger project.

Burnout+Any game with guns=Full Auto
posted by 360PS3Wii (JENKS, OK) May 11, 2006
Member since Oct 2005
17 out of 22 gamers (77%) found this review helpful
If you don't like it, rent it anyway, because the Achievement Points are very easy to get (Most of them, anyway). All the environments are completely destructible, and blowing up trains overhead it always good fun, especially when it falls on the track. Blowing opponents up on Xbox Live right before they cross the finish line? Hilarious. As fun as Full Auto is, however, it has some flaws. The single player seems to lack variety, and it seems to be the same racing event over and over. The lack of cars and weapons isn't good, either.
In the end, as fun as Full Auto is, it's no world-breaker. In the long run, chances are the thrills won't last forever. Oh well, there's always Full Auto 2 coming out in 2007 to look forward to...
Loved it

Burnout + Twisted Metal = Full Auto
posted by Twizlex (DAUPHIN, PA) Aug 5, 2006
Member since Jul 2006
4 out of 6 gamers (67%) found this review helpful
Visually, this game is a bit sharper than any Burnout game so far, but that should be expected considering this is a next-gen game. There are some nice particle effects from explosions and sparks from wall-rubbing and bullets, and the damage to the cars is also pretty impressive. There's a variety of game types, but it mostly boils down to either finishing in first place, or within a certain amount of time, taking out a certain number of enemies, taking out Rivals (specific enemies that are worth more points), achieving a certain number of Wreck Points (which you get by blowing stuff up, like cars or buildings), or a combination of all these objectives. You can unlock more game types, as well as more vehicles, skins, and alternate colors, by playing through the Career Mode.
Ultimately, though, this game just isn't very exciting. If you've ever played Burnout and wished you could shoot the cars, this game is for you. If you really like the Burnout formula and want to play more of it, this game should be fun for you also. If, however, you've played Burnout to the point where you were kind of sick of it or bored with it, this game won't do that much for you.
While there's nothing really "wrong" with this game, there's nothing special either. It's fun for a short time and might be worth a rental for a week or so, and the idea of playing on Live is a selling point for some people, too. Given the Gamefly rating system, this game is only slightly above average - a solid 6.

Otherwise, the game is just not that great. It's a racing game similar to Burnout, but tries to throw some guns in there to mix things up. Really, it tends to throw too much to blowing stuff up and not enough to racing. In fact, you'll spend a lot of your time trying to fall behind other racers so that you can blow them up to get a higher score and unlock more stuff. The whole thing just ends up weakening the whole experience to the point where you'll either put the game away after a quick run through, or push through to get the overly easy achievements.
The game is just forgettable in every way. There isn't really anything glaringly wrong with the game, but nothing really great about it either. The only reason I can think to get it was that, at the time it was released, there weren't really a lot of options for 360 games.
Multiplayer may be okay, but I was too bored with it to even bother, and I really don't see how much better the game could get, as the multiplayer we basically the same deal only racing against other people.
So, go ahead and rent it if you want some quick and easy points, but other than that, there is no reason to bother with this game, especially with better racing games and better shooters out there now.
A Fine Arcade Racer With Guns

The courses are reasonable and pretty much totally destructible - it's great stopping an opponent by tearing up a pile of pipes, or blocking the road by shooting a truck into the middle of it. The driving is pretty good, and the cars handle very much like Crazy Taxi and not at all like other racers, so it retains a very arcade feel.
Downsides are that the selection of weapons is a bit small, there are not too many tracks, there's a little slowdown at times and due to the way the game is laid out it gets pretty samey. But if you're a fan of arcade racing and the ability to blow stuff up, go for it and it'll keep you entertained for a week or so.

This game falls in the same category. Paying full price would suck for Full Auto. The game play is simple and very very repetitive.
One problem I had with it is no matter how good you are doing, those darn CPU players just come out of no where! I know its not a sim, but man is it annoying. Some of the car characteristic's seem to be off, the trucker is suppose to be stronger then the rest, but its a miracle if I can finish a race in one piece with that car. The gun controls can be really difficult at times, when you trying to aim with the rocket launch and taking a hairpin turn at the same time. (I usually just stick with the machine guns)
Graphics are great (duh its HD), and the sound was perfect too in 5.1 (you can hear the bullets bouncing off the cars). Some of the game play options are also sweet, like the go back in time feature that gets recharged by blowing stuff up!! They also give you LOTS to do to unlock everything, or you can go to g4/cheat and get the unlock code.
I like how they incorporated your online skill into achievement's however the game just wasn't that great for me to spend the time needed to unlock the highest levels.

Full Auto - Full Disappointment (Singe Player)

2 out of 6 gamers (33%) found this review helpful
To describe this game as Burnout Revenge with guns, which it often was, Full Auto is truly lacking. One never gets that same feeling of raw destruction and power from Full Auto that is in every second of Burnout Revenge. It is clear that something is wrong right from the start. Things start out fun enough: shoot stuff and it gets destroyed. But that is just about where the concept of Full auto ends. It is clear that the developers tried at least tried to mix things up a little bit by including missions where you don't have any weapons or you only have one life. There are even missions that take away the games only unique and interesting feature - the ability to "Unwreck."
Full Auto does at least make a contribution to the racing genre with the Unwreck feature. Racing along and accidentally turn right into that wall or drive over that land mine? No worries my friend, simply hold down the Unwreck button and turn back time to an appropriate point where you can avoid your previous fate. Unwreck comes in handy when the other guys go and blow you up. This makes in all the more annoying when you are forced to do missions that deny the player the use of the Unwreck feature. It doesn't make sense that on occasion, the only good part of the game that worth mentioning isn't even usable.
Another major issue: You are forced to use certain sets - so if you find a pair of weapons that you would like to use together, but the developers didn't provide that option, you are out of luck.
The Point: A Bad game. Almost every other 360 game is preferable to this one. Rent only as a last resort.

The gameplay in Full Auto is solid, but not perfect. There is much action to be had by all, but, there are a few flaws. For example, certain challenges strip you of the unwreck feature (explained later) and some challenges wont even let you respawn, making gameplay slow and frustrating. Perhaps the biggest error in gameplay is the frame rate issues. With large explosions and carnage, the frame rate can drop from 60 FPS down to the speed of a chicken swimming across the Pacific.
Full Auto offers some unique features that make the game funner (it is to a word!). When you approach an obstacle, you have multiple options. One choice is to boost past all of the traffic, a.k.a. "so long suckers." The other option is to use unwreck, which rewinds up to five seconds of the race, a.k.a. "suckers long so." Both boost and unwreck will soon become your friends so be sure to get on their good sides. You will acquire boost by racing stylishly (jumps, slides) and unwreck by destroying stuff (buildings, cars).
Full Auto's graphics are superb. The car models are not real, but they still look great, and blindingly shiny. The buildings and other scenery are very detailed and also completely destructible. Buildings, trees, and gas stations alike, can all be damaged in some way. Playing the game, you will learn to use this to your advantage. On many tracks, you can cut through the glass front of a store to make a corner faster.
I'm thinking of a number between 0 and 1000. It's 47 more than--okay, never mind, nobody wants a math lesson. The number is 890 and it's how many GS points I've gotten from Full Auto. The game's achievements are easy, but to get the full 1000 GS is tough. :)
wow perfect!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I played this for about 1 hour tops and had to put Fight Night 3 back in.
I truly enjoyed PGR2 and this was nothing like that. I understand that this is a car shooter and focuses on destruction, but I didn't see any compelling story line that kept me going. I have played other car shooters that did a more realistic job at controling your vehicle while keeping fast paced action and with an actual story. Sensless destruction isn't fun unless you feel a part of the game. It was Unlike any other driving game except for crazy taxi, which it did resemble in feel.
Graphics alone will not keep me playing.

Passive homes heat and cool naturally without active mechanical heating and cooling systems. The low energy requirements are achieved through strategic building design which yields efficient and cost effective structures. Swedish architects Kjellgren Kaminsky are modern 'passivists', recently unveiling plans for the Ulricehamn Visitors Center in Southern Sweden which will maximize natural climate control, productivity, and wellbeing with a passive energy design strategy.
The Ulricehamn Visitors Center and City Museum will be the first of its kind employing passive energy. Nearly all of the heat needed to warm the toes of travelers will come from the building's existing appliances. Electricity and water heating will come from solar panels to be installed on the roof.
Well insulated walls preserve heat generated by the people and appliances inside for winter warming. And passive cooling works by transferring heat outside and reducing direct solar impact on the building through strategic placement and orientation.

So they don't rely on direct sunlight for passive heating? Given that there is no North arrow or visible pattern to the fenestration (ie, bias toward the south side), this would seem to be the case. Its not necessarily a bad thing, but it does seem contrary to what I know about passive heating.

F-Factor Diet
The F-Factor diet is designed by Tanya Zuckerbrot, a dietitian, with 10 years of practical experience helping people to lose weight.
The creator of the diet claims that not only will the diet promote weight loss but it will also improve the appearance of skin and hair, boost energy levels, as well as reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, colon and breast cancer.
General diet guidelines are similar to the 'Zone Diet'. Tanya recently released an updated version of F-Factor called The Miracle Carb Diet.
The F-Factor Diet Basics
The F-factor diet is based around increasing the intake of high fiber foods. Fiber helps to promote the feeling of fullness and to reduce appetite. Fiber also controls blood sugar balance which helps to maintain high energy levels.
Recommended High Fiber Foods:
- Fiber One Cereal
- Fiber Crackers
- Fruit (raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, pear, apple)
- Vegetables (salad greens, broccoli, asparagus, sweet potato, cabbage)
- Whole Grains (brown rice, whole wheat bread)
- Beans and Legumes (garbanzos, black beans, lentils, pinto beans)
- Nuts (peanut butter, almond, pistachio, walnut)
4 weeks of menu plans are available at www.ffactordiet.com
Meal plans are set at approximately 1100 calories per day.
The book includes 75 recipes as well as guidelines for making suitable food choices when eating out.
Other low Calorie meal ideas can be found here.
The F-Factor Retails for $24.95 USD.
- The diet emphasizes adding healthy foods to the diet rather than eliminating foods.
- Contains a good balance of protein, carbohydrates and fats and does not eliminate entire food groups.
- High nutrient content due to the emphasis on fruits, vegetables and unprocessed foods.
- Good for those who feel hungry when dieting because the high fiber content reduces appetite while still allowing for a reduction in calories.
- Beneficial for those with a high risk of diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
- Serving sizes of outlined meal plans are very small. Calorie content may need to be increased for those with higher calorie requirements.
- The first two weeks of the diet requires a specific brand of crackers with no allowance made for suitable alternatives.
- Diet will need to be adjusted for those who are allergic or intolerant to wheat as fiber one and fiber crackers are listed as a requirement of this diet.
- Inadequate guidance for monitoring fat intake and the types of fats in the diet.
Overall this is a sound eating plan based on solid nutritional principles however the calorie content will need to be increased if the diet is to be continued for more than a few weeks. Those who have a physically active lifestyle will also need to increase the calorie and carbohydrate content of the diet in order to support higher activity levels.
This is a diet that can be continued as a healthy eating plan at a higher calorie level and is especially suitable for those with a high risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes.

Anybody else tired of taking pre-reqs?
- 2Nov 13, '12 by FaithGurl93I know that we need them in order to get into the nursing program but some of them seem SOOOOOO useless! I have a Dialogue class and all we do is read this wierd book that the professor wrote himself, nobody understands it and we have to write papers on it! Sociology just seems like it's all about race (may be different at other schools idk). I like my Anatomy and learning to like my math class. Those two are the only classes I'm taking this semester that seem like they're gonna help me to be a good nurse. I just want to start my major already! Does anybody else feel or has felt this way?
- 2Nov 13, '12 by nguyency77I spent 7 years at a private school that emphasized classical/liberal arts education. I don't like taking certain classes, like philosophy and other humanities simply because I spent too many of my high school days trying to read The Republic and other boring books.
I know what you mean about wanting to start nursing school. Definitely cannot wait to be done with my Drawing I class. Yes, drawing is lovely and artsy-fartsy; fun to do when I have free time, not so fun when the teacher insists that everything is drawn in black, and gray and nearly every day we're drawing the same ugly still-life! She puts a cooking pot, a cowboy boot, and a couple of vases on the table and we have to draw it for 3 hours. I've been in class since AUGUST. LOL
I do think having a rounded education is important, though. There is a world beyond science pre-requisites, and it's very important (even if you don't think the course has any practical value) to learn about a variety of topics. You never know when it comes in handy. When I was working as a CNA, I sometimes provided care for veterans of war. My fixation with history came in handy, as I was able to break the ice with these residents. They seemed impressed when I actually knew the places they said they fought at, and what those battles were for.
- 0Nov 13, '12 by RunnerRN2b2014My school doesn't require any pre-reqs (you can take everything WITH the NUR classes) but I started in their pre-nursing program January of this year to get the rest of the non-nursing classes out the way (A&P 1 and 2, micro, math/dosage calculations, and med term--I already had SOC, ENG, PSY, etc completed from a previous major) and I'm beyond ready for micro to be over! It's my last non-nursing class. Starting in January, it's NUR only!
- 3Nov 13, '12 by CDEWannaBeWelcome to higher education. The faculty sets the degree plans, which are all the classes you have to take to graduate. But the catch is they all want THEIR classes listed as requirements so they have job security. And the college is complicit because students (or the Federal Government if you get federal financial aid) is obligated to pay the tuition for these requirements.
Because of this silliness it now takes most student 3 years to get an ADN/ASN and 5 years to get a Bachelors degree.
I've received a BA and am a reasonably intelligent person who now works at a college. Most classes outside of your major are a waste of time. They are not life changing and rarely make you a better person. You might be able to answer a few more questions on Jeopardy, but that's about it.
- 0Nov 13, '12 by FaithGurl93What school do you go to?
- 1Nov 13, '12 by x_factorWhile it is tiresome, I also understand it. I started pre-reqs thinking it was useless to take an art elective, and in the beginning even wondered if I'd use much of the psychology I was learning. And I was already an A+ student in english, and I'm holding that same english grade now that I'm in college, however I have learned a lot in the different writing styles we've been taught. My art elective has opened my eyes to all types of artists, styles of art, and historic art pieces. I find myself willingly watching documentaries on different artists now. Same with psychology, it started with me being so bored, but now I am fascinated with the topics at hand and some of the theorists we've learned about as well. I've really enjoyed getting the well-rounded education that my pre-reqs have provided me with this semester. Not enjoying math quite as much as my other classes, but it's a necessary evil, lol.
- 0Nov 14, '12 by giarose2007YES I know how you are feeling!!!! I just want to be done with my pre-reqs!
- 0Nov 14, '12 by SaraMCI HATE sociology. I feel it's pointless and does not pertain to what I really need to know and takes time away from my important subjects(A&P , etc) but its required. I'm about to take humanities and dev. Psych in spring. Hopefully I won't feel that way about them.

I didn't mind psych, sociology, or human growth/development though. After 3 years of taking pre-reqs I'm just so ready to actually start the nursing program.

Los Angeles: Rampart Area detectives are investigating an apparent double murder and suicide that occurred at 509 North Berendo Street.
On May 18, 2005, at about 4:30 p.m., officers conducting a death investigation, were met by the manager at the location who indicated there was a foul smell coming from apartment 215. The manager opened the apartment door and the officers found the decomposed body of a 25 year-old woman, hanging from the ceiling in the entryway. Officers also found the decomposed bodies of a 33 year-old man and a young girl, about 2 years old, on the living room floor.
According to investigators, the tenants of the apartment were a husband, wife and daughter. At this time, investigators believe the wife killed her husband and daughter and then committed suicide by hanging herself.
Although there was evidence of trauma to the decomposed bodies of the man and child, and a lamp at the scene is believed to have been the weapon, the cause of death of the man and child will be determine by the Coroner's office.
All of the deceased appeared to be of Middle-Eastern decent, however due to the decomposition of the bodies, the Coroner's office will verify their ethnicity.
The identities of the deceased are being withheld pending the notification of the family.
Anyone with information about this incident is asked to contact Rampart Homicide detectives at 213-207-2060. On weekends and during off-hours, call the 24-hour toll free number at the Detective Information Desk at 1-877-LAWFULL (1-877-529-3855).

Benefits of Using a Pressure Seal System
Last Updated on Thursday, 10 March 2011 08:19 Written by email@example.com Thursday, 10 March 2011 08:19
Pressure seal technology offers a number of valuable benefits:
- Simplified mail preparation. With pressure seal technology, there is no need for separate folding, stuffing, sealing and posting equipment or processes.
- Eliminating buying, storing and custom-printing of envelopes. Pressure seal forms serve as their own envelopes. Choose a vendor and a solution that offers the types of forms, such as 11" or 14" length, and folds—including V-folds, Z-folds or C-Folds—that will meet specific requirements.
- Faster mail processing. Since documents go directly from a laser printer to the pressure seal machine, there is no need to handle the document.
- Improved postal processing. With pressure seal technology, addresses can be printed directly onto the form, eliminating the need for window envelopes, which can blur the address and cause delivery problems. Plus, with the appropriate mailing software, intelligent barcodes can be included to save postage costs.
- Protect confidentiality and security. Pressure seal's co-hesive edges and high-pressure sealing provide a more effective seal than traditional envelopes. And, because each mailer is self contained, there is no chance of inserting two confidential documents into the same envelope or mismatching a document with an envelope with a different recipient address.
ULTRASEAL® self mailers from Relyco can reduce overall mail processing costs by nearly 50 percent by eliminating labor-intensive activities like folding, stuffing and sealing. Plus, ULTRASEAL pressure seal solutions meet all postal regulations, allowing customers to incorporate automation features, which can further reduce the cost of document processing and mailing. Most importantly, ULTRASEAL self mailers from Relyco offer up to 13 different security features to ensure that highly sensitive information is secure; additional custom security features are also available.
Pressure seal equipment from manufacturers like Formax can process cost-effectively and efficiently process hundreds of thousands of pressure seal forms for mailing every month. These machines often pay for themselves in just a few uses because you eliminate manual processes and reduce material inventories – no need for envelopes.
Talk to Relyco today about how you can get started with an affordable pressure seal system that can streamline your operations. Learn more in our Pressure Seal Expertise Center, call us 1-800-777-7359 or Email us.
Capital City Partners Streamlines Business Processes with One-Piece Self-Mailers from Relyco
Last Updated on Wednesday, 23 February 2011 11:49 Written by firstname.lastname@example.com Wednesday, 23 February 2011 11:49
A diversified financial services firm based in Columbus, Ohio, Capital City Partners, Inc., provides a wide range of wealth management, investment banking and insurance services nationwide. Through its group of registered representatives, investment advisors and insurance agents, Capital City Partners, Inc. serves many different client types including: corporations, financial institutions, non-profit entities, small businesses and high net-worth individuals.
Andy Heath at Capital City Partners had good and bad news for his CEO. The good news was that the high returns of the Energy Investment Funds his company offers were attracting hundreds of new investors. The bad news was that printing and distributing the growing number of checks each month was becoming more and more cumbersome. He needed an affordable solution—fast.
Heath turned to Relyco for help.
Relyco proposed that Capital City Partners import investor information for each month's checks—which is stored in Excel—into CHEKSERV check printing software, print checks onto ULTRASEAL Pressure Seal Checks using a secure, high-speed Troy MICR printer, and then seal the checks using a Formax Pressure Seal machine.
"We just click a button, select a file, and the checks print," says Heath. "Then we load the checks into the pressure sealer, and within a minute all the checks are ready to go. It's so fast and easy that we can now concentrate once again on doing what we do best. "
Heath believes the investment into the system has paid off in many ways. "In our business people are entrusting their money with us. So it's critical that we have a dependable system that allows us to deliver their dividend checks quickly. Our customers trust us, and we trust Relyco."
Read the complete Capital City Partners success story.

The Cost Advantages of Pressure Seal Technology
Last Updated on Tuesday, 4 January 2011 10:22 Written by firstname.lastname@example.com Tuesday, 4 January 2011 10:22
Justifying the cost of any new technology can be a challenge. When developing a justification for an investment in pressure seal technology, it is important to consider that pressure seal technology maximizes volume while minimizing processing time, as well as the cost of traditional envelopes, postage, labor and maintenance of old or outdated equipment and the value of preserving confidentiality and security.
Consider the cost of operating an expensive, but slow, traditional inserting line or the cost of running high volumes of one-page mailers on expensive inserters. In fact, most one-page mailing formats are ideal for conversion to a pressure seal form. Pressure seal technology offers a much higher hourly output of mailable documents with a lower initial equipment cost, when compared to the cost of inserting equipment.
Justifying the initial investment in pressure seal technology is usually the most difficult obstacle to overcome when making the decision to convert to pressure seal forms or checks. If documents are currently hand-processed or are processed automatically with a folder-inserter, pressure seal technology clearly offers a more efficient processing method. In fact, pressure seal technology handles up to ten times more pieces per hour than traditional folder-inserters and as much as 60 times more pieces per hour than can be processed by hand.
ULTRASEAL pressure seal self mailers from Relyco deliver measurable cost savings. Consider the estimates below or use Relyco's Cost Savings Analysis Tool to view a more customized analysis.

Storage and Handling Tips for Pressure Seal Forms
Last Updated on Thursday, 16 December 2010 01:53 Written by firstname.lastname@example.com Thursday, 16 December 2010 01:53
In keeping with this week's focus on pressure seal forms, we have some tips for ensuring optimum form performance. Relyco ULTRASEAL Pressure Seal Forms should be stored and handled according to these guidelines.
- Cartons of pressure seal forms should be stored off the floor on pallets or shelves; ensure cartons are stacked upright and never stack more than five cartons on top of each other. The downward pressure can damage the pressure seal forms in the bottom cartons
- If cartons are stored on pallets, ensure that they are stacked so that the weight is distributed evenly. If cartons are stored on shelves, ensure that they are not pressed against one another or against an exterior wall
- Relyco pressure seal forms should be stored where environmental conditions can be controlled. Extremely cold and/or hot temperatures can adversely affect shelf life and performance. Storage temperature should be between 65°F and 77°F and the relative humidity should be between 30 and 60 percent. A rapid increase or decrease in humidity or temperature can cause problems. Pressure seal forms act like a sponge and absorb or shed moisture in the air. This can affect their performance in laser printers, causing curling that can lead to paper jams. Excessive curl can also affect the smooth operation of your pressure seal machine
- Because of the shorter shelf life of pressure seal forms, cartons should be rotated so that the oldest pressure seal forms are always used first
- Allow cartons to acclimate for approximately two days in advance of printing by placing them in the room with the printer
- If you do not use all the pressure seal forms you planned to use, store them in a poly bag so they can be better protected from atmospheric changes. Contact Relyco for information about Enviro-Guard Pressure Seal Storage Bags to protect your forms
- "Fanning" pressure seal forms on all sides and "jogging" them prior to placing them in the feed tray in your laser printer is usually recommended by laser printer manufacturers
- While not mandatory, it is recommended that you acclimate pressure seal forms for one hour or so, placed curl side down, before you process through the pressure seal machine. This results in optimal feeding and an extra strong glue bond

Startup negotiating tactic
A simple way to keep a fair and reasonable percentage in your startup when getting funding is this.
Argue you require a sufficient percentage to keep you motivated.
Tell them you need enough stake to bring out your best performance. That they are investing in your performance and that this is part of the human make up. Then remind them that you are human.
One Response
This is a very good tactic Steve. Rolling over and taking it sucks and drains your energy. It's better to fight for a deal that you can be happy with. It's even better to have investors who believe in you and are not greedy – but professional and supportive. Choosing your ideal investor might be even more important here – some VC's you really should never take money from because they require to much time and energy to keep them happy, rather than the business growing.

So, I've mentioned before my "hippie" ways. I like living a natural life. I believe that God is really, REALLY smart and that He created an amazing world that works so synergistically that far too often our "man-made" ways have messed up with the natural balance of things… You know, like processed foods, over-dosing on pharmaceuticals, and shoes.
Did I just say shoes are a problem?
Sure did.
As a modern dancer I've come to love the freedom of moving without restrictive shoes. As a somatic practitioner I often look at women wearing high heels and feel sorry for what they are doing to their spine in the name of fashion (I don't care how comfortable you think they are). But I've recently learned a new reason to prefer barefootin' to lacing up some shoes:
(This is where I put a flower in my hair and start singing "kumbaya" while hugging a tree.)
What I'm about to say may sound like a too-hippie-for-most idea, but hear me out. I heard about "earthing sheets" several months ago. My first thought was, "Really? Sheets?" I mean, even for me it just sounded too weird and… well, kind of made up. But then I kept hearing about this concept. I kept reading about it. And the more I learned the more it made sense.
So what is earthing?
It's both a very simple and very complex concept. Simply put: Earthing is the process of grounding ourselves (in a similar way that we "ground" our electrical outlets). It's a natural process of being connected to the earth in order to "neutralize" our body's electrical makeup.
Back in the "good old days," people were much more connected to the earth. But today it's a different story. Everything is insulated. We wear rubber shoes. We live in insulated houses. We spend most of our day engaged in electrical devices. We are literally disconnected from the Earth and that lost connection to our planet has created an electron deficiency in our bodies.
Consider this:
Your planet is a six sextillion (that's six followed by twenty-one zeros) metric ton battery that is continually being replenished by solar radiation, lightning, and heat from its deep-down molten core. And just like a battery in a car that keeps the motor running and the wheels turning, so, too, do the rhythmic pulsations of natural energy flowing through and emanating from the surface of the Earth keep the biological machinery of global life running in rhythm and balance.(Earthing: The most important health discovery ever? page 3)
The electric charges of the earth are really important for us humans. Why? Because, like the Earth, our bodies are made up of mostly water and minerals—both of which are amazing conductors of electrons. And as long as there is direct skin contact with the earth, the free electrons from that 6,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 metric ton battery (Earth) are easily transferred into and throughout our body. These free electrons help balance out our bodies—which have a lot of free radicals moving about.
In a nutshell, free radicals are positive-charged molecules (short of one or more electrons) that search for free electrons to become stable. In a healthy, balanced body, these free radicals obtain their missing electrons by stripping electrons away from pathogens and damaged tissue—killing "the bad guys" in our bodies. This is acute inflammation. (This is good.) The problem is that in chronic or prolonged inflammation those free radicals go on a rampage and start attacking healthy tissue.
We believe that normal inflammation veers out of control because of lost contact with the Earth. People are suffering from an electron deficiency—not enough free electrons on hand to satisfy the lust of rampaging free radicals. (Earthing, page 60)
Medical experts and scientists consider inflammation to be one of the major causes in almost all chronic disease from stroke to heart disease to arthritis. In fact, a number of people suffering from a variety of issues (such as back pain, autism, allergies, arthritis, electrosensitivity, fibromyalgia, jet lag, multiple sclerosis, sciatica, sleep apnea, stress, and varicose veins) have reported amazing results by getting grounded.
The whole concept of earthing is still relatively new, scientifically speaking. But the studies that have been performed over the past decade and a half are showing amazing results. For example, in a double blind study one group used "earthing sheets" and the control group used placebo sheets. In the "grounded" group:
- 85% went to sleep more quickly
- 93 percent reported sleeping better throughout the night
- 82% experience less muscle stiffness
- 74% experienced an elimination of chronic back/joint pain
- 100% reported feeling more rested upon waking
- 78% reported improved general health
- Some 'grounded' participants also reported relief from respiratory issues, RA, hypertension, sleep apnea, hot flashes, and PMS.
In fact, earthing recovery bags have been used by the American bikers in the Tour de France for a number of years with an impressive track record for faster recovery and healing while also keeping tendonitis at bay.
And if you are the type who "learns from pictures" check these out:
These thermal images were taken just 30 minutes apart before (left) and after (right) earthing. The red, orange and yellow show inflammation "hot spots."
The really good news is that earthing is free!
You don't need to buy sheets, bands, or mats to get a dose of the earth's goodness. You just need to get connected to the earth. Take your shoes off. Make some skin contact to the planet's surface (preferably for at least 30 minutes consecutively.) Go on a picnic. Do some barefoot running. Hug a tree (seriously, do it.) Of course, if weather or other life routines make it hard to get outside, you may find it useful to look into some of the sheets. But earthing is a simple, free solution available to all! (Of course, if you are interested in earthing products for those winter months, you can check them out here.)
This series is getting ridiculously long (sorry about that). And I haven't even talked about my experience yet (or how it helped me with my insomnia.) Come back tomorrow to learn more. I'll make it worth your while with a giveaway!!!
What do you think? Does this make sense to you or is it "too out there?" Do tell!
