The Giro Omen Ski and Snowboard Helmet is the most technically advanced snow helmet Giro offers. The Omen is an innovation from experience, designed for riders who live the dream all season long and love to charge big lines in epic locations. The Omen is an in-mold Hardbody shell with high-impact ABS zones and an EPS liner. The WindTunnel ventilation system includes 14 Wind Tunnel Vents and Dual Thermostat Control. The Giro Omen includes Giro's Super Fit sizing and the In Form fit system, so it's certain you'll get a perfect fit!
Giro's in-mold construction fuses a tough polycarbonate outer shell with the helmet's impact-absorbing foam liner for extra durability without excess weight. The fusion of shell and liner also allows Giro to sculpt better ventilation systems, so In-mold helmets can be lighter and cooler than traditional helmets.
Giro's Wind Tunnel ventilation combines active vents with exhaust channels in the helmet's liner that force cool, fresh air over and around your head while forcing stale, warm air out. It's the ultimate cooling system, with performance that you can feel every time you ride.
The In Form adjustable fit system makes it easy to dial a custom fit in seconds – even with gloves on. An ergo-friendly dial at the base of the helmet provides up to 6cm of fit/feel adjustment and enhanced stability. The system also offers vertical tuning of the helmet's fore/aft position to match different goggles and head shapes.
The Omen is audio compatible with Giro TuneUps.Features
Color is Matte Pewter.

The essential aspect of blogs that separates them from standard diabetes education is the patient commentary on prescribed diabetes management tools.
"Quirky things happen," says Tenderich. "You want to know what other people with diabetes have experienced, not just the doctor's opinion."
However, diabetes blogs should never completely replace medical counsel from a doctor or a diabetes educator; they supplement treatment by providing extra insights, guidance, and moral support.
"We also know that there are sites where people encourage very negative behaviors, like insulin omission to control one's weight. This is downright scary," says Polonsky. But he adds, "From the blogs I've seen so far, I am very encouraged that these will help people with diabetes to connect, to feel less alone and more hopeful, and to feel encouraged about how to live well with this tough disease. It is a wonderful development."
In addition to responsibly writing accurate information and keeping tabs on the kind of advice shared, new bloggers should also be aware of their online presence versus their real-life information. Diabetes is by its nature a personal disease, but using a pseudonym and vague references or nicknames for locations can help deter unwanted attention and avoid conflicts.
When posting a comment to a blog, people are encouraged to share personal thoughts, but identifying details should be shared with caution. Most blogs do not require commenters to post an e-mail address or Web site, while others require such information but do not publish e-mail addresses. For instance, bloggers who use certain blog hosting services, such as Blogger, have the option of allowing anonymous or unregistered readers to post comments, an option that does not require the commenter to share his e-mail address. Some bloggers, however, do not like anonymous comments and require readers to register with the hosting service to post comments. (Registering is usually free.) Other blogs may not offer these features, and readers have to include their e-mail address in their comment. However, writing or commenting on a blog does not require you to use your real name, and people who are concerned about revealing their real-life identity are encouraged to create a pseudonym.
As more people add their voices to the mix, new discoveries about personal health are made. Joining an active community of bloggers who share information about treatment, research, emotions, and experiences is an excellent method to achieve the needed motivation to handle life with diabetes.

Flips are the best! Great colors, sturdy flip flop, and I wish I would have got the oranges one as well. The bottom is very comfortable and soft. It is nice too have one that is other than plastic on top and it is made well. July 8, 2014
love these flip flops These sandals are so comfortable. I love the color and the little pineapple on the top. June 9, 2014
Just a tad small Hi, I bought this flip flop, and loved the color and the shoe it's self, just a little on the small side. I was going to send them back for a larger size, but the customer service agent said they only come in full sizes. I didn't want to take the chance on them being too large. I know returns are free, but I was leaving on vacation and I really wanted to wear these. June 6, 2014
Very cute but to wide on my narrow foot I wanted to love this sandal. It would be adorable with many outfits. Unfortunately, my foot is on the narrow side and this sandal was just too loose on my feet. May 30, 2014
Pretty sandals Really liked these sandals. The toe piece is slightly longer on one but otherwise well made and quality leather. I'm taking them on vacation! May 16, 2014
Very comfortable and true to size. I have multiple pairs of the Bimini flip flops & this casual sandal is now my favourite! The color is more turquoise than picture which I love! April 11, 2014

Global-Tech Appliances Inc. announced its financial results for the fiscal year and fourth quarter ended March 31, 2004.
Net sales for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004 were U.S. $66.9 million, compared to $75.5 million for the 2003 fiscal year. Net loss for fiscal year 2004 was $1.6 million, or $0.13 per share, compared to a net profit of $5.3 million, or $0.43 per share, for the previous year.
Net sales for the fourth quarter of 2004 were $15.4 million, up 12 percent from $13.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2003. Net loss for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004 was $0.9 million, or $0.07 per share, compared to a net loss of $0.1 million, or $0.01 per share, in the 2003 period.
John C.K. Sham, president and CEO, said the results reflect the company's de-emphasis on small electrical appliances and a new effort focused on a line of flat panel display (FPD) products. "The net loss in fiscal 2004 was primarily attributable to expenses associated with the research and development of FPD products and organic light emitting diode (OLED) displays. In fiscal 2004, we spent over $2.0 million to develop our high-definition flat panel television programs and an additional $2.1 million to expand our OLED program, and also made significant investments in development and production equipment."
Mr. Sham continued, "The company is making good progress in implementing its previously announced strategic initiatives intended to de-emphasize unprofitable product categories with lower profit margins that merely maintain sales volume and expand into more technologically advanced product categories that we believe should position the company for greater growth and a return to profitability."

Throughout the Muslim world men and women without
knowledge of the gospel or contact among Christians
have experienced dreams and visions of Jesus Christ.
For decades, a well-documented phenomenon has been occurring in the Muslim world—men and women who, without knowledge of the gospel, or contact among Christians in their community, have experienced dreams and visions of Jesus Christ. The reports of these supernatural occurrences often come from "closed countries" where there is no preaching of the good news and where converting to Christianity can invoke the death sentence. But these are more than just dreams. Setting them apart is the intense reality of the experience and the surrender of one's heart and mind to Christ in the wake of the dream. A common denominator appears to be that the dreams come to those who are seeking—as best they can—to know and please God.
Beginning in 2002, a group of people interested in this phenomenon took initial steps in bringing it to the attention of a worldwide audience through a series of video programs. Numerous on-site interviews were conducted with former Muslims who had experienced a dream or vision of Jesus resulting in their conversion to Christianity. From the outset, the producers endeavored to represent a global cross-section of Islam in the series, and for that reason, stories were sought in Arabic-speaking countries, Muslim areas throughout Africa and Asia and the secular Muslim nation of Turkey.
The project's goal was to create versions of these stories in multiple languages, and, in league with ministry partners around the world, disseminate the product globally both to evangelize unbelievers and encourage those who have already experienced a dream or vision of Jesus that they are not alone. The following five stories were put together into the video series called More Than Dreams:
More Than Dreams tells the stories of
individuals in the Muslim world who
have had visions or dreams
of Jesus Christ.

I think the concern is that stewards in all states have different rules for different participants. Whilst one trainer is fined amount x and suspended y other trainers for same offence get fined a and suspended b. This article is hardly trying to sell newspaper. As it states it is Azzopardi's view. Why an agreement was allowed in the first place is the real issue. I think transparency is what the industry needs. It should be played out in public - builds awareness, integrity, absorbs any allegations of corruption and favouritism. Oh - and I think you will find its innocent until proven guilty. Although wouldn't the world be great if it was the other way around.
Mark Azzopardi Furious After GRNSW Act Despite Agreement
Written By Katherine Ernst Saturday 31st August 2013
GRNSW have announced that the inquiry into the analysts' reports of the finding of benzoylecgonine , a metabolite of cocaine, in the urine sample taken from Transcend Time after the greyhound took out a race at Maitland on the 28th March 2013 will recommence this Monday (2nd September 2013).
The trainer in question, Mark Azzopardi , has faced suspension since the inquiry opened on the 28th June, with all of the greyhounds in his name at the time transferred into the name of Preston Rowles. Since then, Rowles has raced a reasonably large team of greyhounds successfully, under an agreement that he could train both at his Narellan property and from Azzopardi's Appin setup.
This all changed on Thursday when GRNSW decided to take action against Rowles by refusing the nominations of his greyhounds and scratching his runner, Jagger Swagger, from Maitland when the dog arrived on course.
The matter has created quite a buzz. After the arrangement had been in place for a number of months, why have GRNSW chosen to act now?
Distressed by the situation, Azzopardi has decided to speak out and has explained the entire matter from his perspective
"Earlier this year, I received a positive swab. I was notified the day after the Bulli Cup. Clint Bentley and a private investigator, William Buckman, came to my house and advised me of the swab and searched the premises. I copped it on the chin and they set a date for the inquiry", Azzopardi said.
"When I got the positive swab my license was suspended. My good friend (Preston Rowles) who I have been doing dogs together with for years moved in and so they didn't suspend the greyhounds we transferred the dogs into Preston's name and he took over the training".
"I went to the first hearing. Bill Fanning and Terrence Hines went through the details about the swab and then agreed with my solicitor that I am allowed to live on the property, trial and handle the greyhounds that I own and that the only thing I couldn't do was present a dog on race days".
"I followed their rules. Preston moved in but he also owns a property at Narellan so he has been going back and forth".
"Bill Fanning agreed with my solicitor that I could still go to the track but I can't present them on race day and I have obliged by those rules all the way".
"I have been going to the track to enjoy a night out but I haven't been handling".
With this arrangement seemingly running smoothly whilst Azzopardi awaited the recommencement of the inquiry, the former leading trainer was shocked at what happened when he arrived at the track on Thursday
"Preston had four dogs nominated for Dapto, and the best dog, Jagger Swagger, nominated to race at Maitland over 450 metres".
"Preston has a job and he can't be everywhere so he paid another bloke to bring Jagger Swagger to Maitland".
"He got out of the car(at the track) and then I got out of the car and we were approached by the track steward and the private investigator in the car park".
"They handed me a letter and said that Jagger Swagger was withdrawn because I was presenting him. I said I hadn't touched the dog and I asked them for proof. The private investigator said he had been watching me for a few days and that he had followed me up from Sydney".
"I rang Bill Fanning who advised me that Jagger Swagger had been scratched. I asked why and he said that they had sufficient evidence compiled that I had been heavily involved on race day".
"I said that I would leave the track but I was told the dog was already scratched".
Assuming the scratching was planned, at least to some degree, in the sense that a letter had been prepared for Azzopardi upon arrival, leaves one wondering why they waited for them to travel all the way to Maitland before announcing the decision.
"They let Preston pay this guy to bring the dog on a 3 1/2- 4 hour trip and had a private investigator follow us. Why couldn't they have just rung him in the morning?"
Rowles was then given an ultimatum. If he intended to keep racing, his greyhounds must be relocated to his Narellan kennels from Azzopardi's property at Appin otherwise they would be scratched from upcoming meetings and his nominations would be refused. This is another confusing point – obviously GRNSW realised that Azzopardi was living at his own premises so what has made them change their rules now?
Azzopardi is not impressed, saying that if GRNSW had an issue with the training arrangement in the beginning, he would have moved out of his property.
"If Bill Fanning had have said from the start that I couldn't touch them and that I couldn't live here I would have moved out but I have just done what they have told me I could do".
The matter is frustrating for Rowles and owner Tyrone Whittington, who owns the majority of the greyhounds trained by Rowles, as the greyhound that has been severely affected is kennel star, Jagger Swagger. Jagger Swagger is a three time group winning greyhound currently on his way back from injury. His run at Maitland was no doubt a lead up run in preparation for the group one Dapto Megastar , for which he has received an invitation.
"He (Rowles) hasn't done anything wrong- he has a house, work and kids, leave him alone".
"I just want this whole thing to be over and done with".
As for what comes next, the greyhounds from the Appin property that are engaged over the next few days have been moved to Narellan so that they can compete in their respective races. However, the full kennel could not be transported at such short notice meaning that some will be restricted on the racetrack.
Azzopardi's inquiry will be held on Monday and, after one of the most controversial and complicated inquiries in recent times, hopefully a verdict will be reached as to his training future and ultimately what will happen with the team of chasers currently racing for Rowles.
It is important to note that the point of this article is in no way to condone the use of banned substances in greyhound racing . In fact, it is one of the most serious and disturbing issues within the industry. Rather, this article seeks to highlight the inconsistencies that present themselves as far as GRNSW is concerned.
The decision to leave the greyhounds at Azzopardi's property puzzled many to start with however, if GRNSW made this judgment in the beginning when he was originally suspended, then why have they suddenly changed their position and perspective now after all this time?
Is it just that they realised that they made the wrong decision? Or is it a bid to save themselves from recent criticism that the industry does not take integrity and positive swabs seriously enough?
Whatever the reason it leaves a lot to be desired from GRNSW; an organisation that should be encouraging an open and trusting relationship with participants. Instead, the greyhound racing rules implemented by GRNSW in cases such as this one have left people scratching their heads and unsure about their rights and responsibilities as industry participants.
It is time GRNSW establish a firm set of rules, implemented transparently and consistently, and not interpreted on an ad hoc basis from inquiry to inquiry. If for some reason GRNSW find themselves unable to implement their rules as expected by their own participants, then an attempt to explain and inform the public of their position when an exception has been granted or an agreement made would be more practical than leaving participants to come to their to own conclusions.
A number of efforts were made to contact GRNSW Chief Steward Bill Fanning via email and phone for his comment regarding this latest issue, however no response was forthcoming.
If you can fault GRNSW for anything, it's for letting the dodgy setup at Mr Azzopari's place happen in the first place. He should never have been allowed to be there while his licence was suspended, doing goodness knows what with the dogs. If he is suspended, it should be from all training activities, not just from "presenting" the dogs at the track. At least GRNSW saw the error of their ways, even if it was a touch too late!
Robert our dogs are slow dogs compared to Azzopardi...we're not using cocaine to get em going...no-ones rubbishing him,there just stating his stupidity an disrespect for the rules an regulations that are in black an white for all to see..
Why travel to the track in the same car as the dog? If he's just gone for a night out, and isn't supposed to present/handle, then why travel with the other bloke who's handling?.....Had he gone in a different car, like any reasonably smart person in that situation would do, there would presumably be no issue?.....
I,m not an arseol Robert it sounds like your for it
stewards make a decision and then changed it i wonder why ? HUM HUM ....... maybe they just wised up to the fact that this other trainer was not living there full time...[ agreement ] what agreement ,why don't you just let the stewards handle the positive the way it should be done not in the public arena were reporters report what ever they like just to get attention to there paper , and have no clue of any rules or how to train a greyhound . u do the crime u do the time guilty until proven otherwise same in all states
I hear a rumour that Stephen dank was involved in this
I always thought narcotics was a federal police concern ,how come they wernt called in?
from u frankie stop selling it and they wont use it
oh all the do gooders out to play just because ur got slow dogs dont rubbish other people
Its stupid how they GRNSW made such an agreement in the first place! All other people i know have not even been allowed near the dogs let alone handle them on any other day than race day! How stupid! They should not have made that agreement with him, but was it really necessary to let the dog tavel for several hours to prove a point??? Its unnecessary and unfair to the animal! Stupid people.... And if he is travelling with the dog, there is no doubt that he has had involvement with it! No question... He would have known this!
Cocaine just not on federal offence greyhound racing is being screwed by people useing illegal drugs in all states where is it coming
So he is upset that the rules were broken by him, then another set were bent by stewards for some reason, and now try are merely enforcing the rules that everyone else has to live with. Am I missing something here? It seems he had 4 months of pretty favourable treatment, so should be happy with that. Of course, anyone who has ever had a positive and either moved off their property or had dogs moved certainly can ask what the hell is going on. Again I ask if I am missing something. Am I reading this situation correctly? If I am not, then I sorry. If I am, wtf is he complaining about?
hang them
did he get cought transporting the dog to maitland
Bear in mind its not GRNSW he cheated on ,its his fellow trainers,do we need people like this in racing?
Why did they draw him to start with
Didn't he just answer his own question? Can't present a dog on race day, got out of the same car the dog was in, simple shouldn't have gone to the track, just stay away
Bit weird how they make an "agreement" then go back on there "agreement"
What a load of crap...rules for 1 different for others...I think someone needs to read the rule book...ya done with cocaine in ya dog simple...I'm looking forward to the outcome of this..an so are many others...the rule is black an white...suck it up
Omfg !!!!!!!!!!

Facebook, LinkedIn: Tech Winners & Losers (Update 1)
Updated from 12:49 p.m. EST to include information on Check Point and updated share prices.
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Shares of LinkedIn (LNKD) slid 5.40% to $102.98 on Monday, while Facebook (FB) shares rose 1.39% to $32.17.
Facebook will reportedly launch a job postings feature later this summer that will directly compete with LinkedIn. Facebook's press representative said the company does not "comment on rumor and speculation."
In a report compiled for The Wall Street Journal, Morningstar said at least 160 US-based mutual funds and exchange-traded funds bought shares of Facebook in May.Research In Motion (RIMM) dropped 5.31% to $7.67 as investors await the annual shareholder meeting tomorrow. RIM's stock has slumped nearly 75% in the past year and dropped 16.45% after the company announced its first-quarter earnings at the end of June. Ubiquiti Networks (UBNT) announced a major legal victory on Monday over Kozumi USA Corp and its owner Shao Wei Hsu, who Ubiquiti had charged with counterfeiting. Shares of Ubiquiti rose 4.20% to $14.14. Check Point (CHKP) fell Monday after RBC Capital Markets analyst Robert Brez affirmed outperform with a $65 target price, citing difficult economic environment for software companies in general. Most software companies "have a lower pipeline today than going into the quarter, reflecting some pull-forward of deals, which could lead to a tough start to the September quarter," Breza wrote. "The deal environment for most software companies was characterized by smaller deal sizes and lower close rates," he added. Check Point's stock closed down 4.89% to $44.96 on 4.5 million shares, nearly double its average daily volume. --Written by Nathalie Pierrepont in New York. >To submit a news tip, send an email to: email@example.com.

"Grand Viziers were always scheming megalomaniacs. It was probably in the job description: 'Are you a devious, plotting, unreliable madman? Ah, good, then you can be my most trusted advisor.'"Sometimes it's the monarch/Head of State who's the Evil Overlord. And sometimes there's this trope, where instead of the Head of State being the person who has malicious intent, it's his adviser, assistant, second-in-command, or Head of Government (that is if the Head of State and Head of Government are separate positions, such as with having both a President and a Prime Minister, respectively). Most of the time he's actively scheming to discredit or usurp the throne, and may even be an agent sent for this purpose by an outside power. In other cases, he's perfectly content to be The Man Behind the Man and keeps the ruler around primarily as the figurehead for the ignorant masses and as the fall guy if something goes wrong. He can also tend to have more actual power and real influence than the Head of State, especially in cases where the Government is a Parliamentary system or a Constitutional Monarchy. Sometimes called The Evil (Grand) Vizier instead, in which case he will spend a lot of time tapping his fingertips together and calling everyone "effendi". In stories set in Presidential democratic societies, an Evil Vice President may play the same role, although it is a lot less common. In the American political system in particular, there is a fairly legitimate reason why the vice president is an illogical position to be filled by someone evil: by default, the vice president (generally) has very little actual power, unless the president is incapacitated or has delegated significant amounts of formal authority to the vice president. (Note: if the President is planned to be assassinated or is an easily controlled fool, this trope would easily apply.) While Chancellors, Vice Presidents, and the like may not always be examples of this trope merely by having the job, the title "Grand Vizier" might as well just include "Evil" as part of it, in the eyes of English-speaking audiences, especially if the Vizier's name is some version of "Jafar". If you see a non-evil Grand Vizier, the author is probably playing with the trope... or you're talking about Real Life (the historical Ja'far ibn Yahya, while a Vizier, was not particularly Evil). The word "Chancellor" itself has also got a bad taste in English countries, due to one of the most famous real-life codifiers of the Evil Chancellor character. Malicious Slander is a particular favorite of the Evil Chancellor. As cliched as this trope may seem, it is often justified in that if anybody's going to usurp the reigning ruler through manipulation and intrigue, it's going to be the guy who actually has the authority to replace him. Part of the basis of this trope may also come from the context in which stories are written; in a monarchy, it can be dangerous to tell stories about an evil king, so pushing all the blame onto an evil adviser is an easy way out. This extends into political commentary as well — it is safer to vilify an adviser for hated policies than the leader themselves. If only the King thinks the evil chancellor is his most trusted and loyal subject, he's a Horrible Judge of Character. When only the protagonists see through the evil of this character, it's a Devil in Plain Sight. If he doesn't want to steal the throne himself, then his goal is almost certainly to turn the ruler he allegedly serves into a Puppet King. This trope is the Evil Counterpart of The Good Chancellor. See also: The Evil Prince, who is usually also after the throne and rather less willing to remain in the shadows. In fantasy settings, will often overlap with an Evil Sorcerer; if his "official" job is to be the ruler's personal magic-user, then he's also the Court Mage. Aspiring backstabbers may refer to the Evil Chancellor List. If the ruler the Evil Chancellor "serves" is also evil, expect overlap with The Starscream. In terms of the ranks of Authority Tropes, the tropes that are equal are The Good Chancellor, Lady Macbeth (when it's the Queen/First Lady who's doing the scheming), Standard Royal Court and Deadly Decadent Court. The next steps up are The Evil Prince, Prince Charming, Prince Charmless, Warrior Prince, Princely Young Man, The Wise Prince, and all Princess Tropes. The next step down is The Brigadier.

I was listening to the table next to me discussing their experience (they loved the wings) and they said it best. It's not worth a special effort to go here. If your in the neighborhood then stop by, but Oggi's is not the kind of place were if you're sitting at home with friends making plans for the evening, some one might say, "hey let's go to Oggi's" and everyone else in the group will say, "ya let's go!"
Beer: Triple Belgium. Very good but a little cold. Clocked in around 9%.
IPA: Solid beer but served too cold.
Food: The wings were great-spicy and full of meat.
The establishment was fairly dead around happy hour on a Thursday. It seems to be off the beaten track as far as north Scottsdale is concerned. Oggis real estate team did not do a good job in placing this brewpub in the best location. IMO, I have this feeling that this place will not be here for the long term.
Secondly, I went around 5 pm to watch rush hour go by. I ordered a double IPA from the rather young bartender. He proceeded to pour it into a FROZEN glass. I asked him to re-pour a beer into a room temperature glass. He then told me that he had been a bartender for 7 years and had never heard of beer being served otherwise! He asked me 3 times if I wanted him to pour out the beer and re-serve it-I said Yes on all 3 accounts. Mr. double-earring came on real strong with the attitude that I should drink the beer as he poured it-not as 1) it should be poured and 2) as me, the customer, would like it. I told him that I had been drinking beer longer than he had been alive and had visited hundreds of brewpubs/breweries/beer bars world wide and quite possibly might know a little more about the "frozen glass syndrom" (which I thought was Texas born and bred).
Needless to say I drank my beer (which by the way was very good) and got out of this place as soon as possible and went to 4 Peaks down the road. Maybe this is why the happy hour at Oggi's had about 10 customers while 4 Peaks was packed. Suffice to say I'll not go out of my way to visit this place again.
This is not the way to make a first impression for a new brewpub anywhere.

Document Type Master's Dissertation Author Greyvenstein, Renee URN etd-04032011-160450 Document Title Earnings management on the JSE before and after King II Degree MBA Department Gordon Institute of Business Science Supervisor
Advisor Name Title Mr J Lamprecht Supervisor Keywords
- firm size
- earnings management
- industry
- King II
Date 2011-04-20 Availability unrestricted Abstract
This research investigated whether earnings management of listed companies, have increased or decreased since the implementation of King II in 2003. This study assessed the extent of earnings management for certain sectors and for large and mid cap companies.
The discretionary component of total accruals was used as proxy for earnings management – calculated by using the Modified Jones Model. The top-100 JSE-listed firms by market capitalisation were assessed, excluding the Financial, Mining and Resource Sectors.
It was found that discretionary accruals has increased since 1996 and peaked in 2005 (see graph Figure 13). It was concluded with 89% certainty that discretionary accruals during "2003-2009" were higher than during "1996-2002". Hence, the research suggests that accrual based earnings management is likely to have increased since 2003. However, the results were not statistically significant. Also, the cause of this increase could be due to many factors (not necessarily due to King II). Discretionary accruals were found to be higher for mid cap companies and for the retail sector. However, the analysis was not statistically significant.
Discretionary accruals have fluctuated significantly over time and amongst companies. In order to identify which companies and sectors manage earnings the most, a more detailed micro-level investigation, using multiple detection models, is required.

About The Gospel of Thomas
The Gospel of Thomas is about an event in the Catholic Church that's affecting the world and causing conflicts involving the United States and China.
The President of the United States receives a message from a cardinal in Rome that obliges him to intervene in the Conclave of the Church that has assembled in the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican to choose the next pope.
The attorney general and operatives from various U.S. government agencies meet to carry out the president's directive. Turf war and sexual competition erupt, bringing the president's urgency in who the next pope should be to the attention of the Chinese government.
The Chinese have reasons to be concerned for the cardinal who has contacted
the president is their nemesis, Simon Cardinal Mulangu of the Congo, who has never let an opportunity pass to denounce the Chinese for the deficiency of their economic and human rights policies in Africa.
The Chinese set in motion a military precision crusade to counter the American
president's effort. They scour the Vatican and they search archives and everything else about the president that may help them prevent the Americans from successfully interfering in the affairs of the church.
They discover an extraordinary secret and the race for who will prevail is on.
Chapter One of The Gospel of Thomas
There was a sense of certainty about Thomas Bremanger, faith in the manner he made his way. You felt drawn by the energy like a bee to the bloom. To resist left many with an uneasy isolation that had the doomsday media clamoring, "That the rats were once again following the tune of the piper to an unknown abyss."
On Madison Avenue, where he had several offices, Bremanger would walk from one on 23rd Street to another on 28th and it was as if Apollo had stepped off the Belvedere to march up the avenue. Pedestrians would stop to watch him pass by. And as America floundered and insecurity normed, some would follow him out of an instinct for protection. His stride was too long and most followers fell behind, watching him tower over the crowd, regretful they couldn't keep up. It wasn't his demeanor that caused such reactions. He wished for nothing better than self-effacement and put great stake in that quality in his associates. Nor was it his understated elegance; that if you copied him to the minute details you would still fall short.
The pope, with whom he had done business while Secretary of State, and, who envied the marbled handsomeness and intellectual vigor, identified the indescribable sensation many experienced in his presence as a state of grace.
The Gods may have favored Thomas Bremanger, but the naysayers would not overlook his dogmatic push to right the past and his leanings toward the poor. Fortunately, neither would they overlook the disaster around them. They were desperate.
Still, it took his wife's death to make him president.
His wife, unbeknownst to the public, had been ill for some time. Chemotherapy had ravaged her body already frail from the surgery to remove her breasts, and she wanted to die.
She told him, never had she loved life more, not to remind him of the life they had made by referring to their favorite Puccini aria – since they were married, they had never failed to be in Milan on December 7, in La Scala's third box on the right, in the first tier decorated in sea-green silk, for the season opener – but because she knew he too was embarking on a journey of no return and the thought of their diverging paths settled upon them.
So she begged his forgiveness and, as if on cue, did not awaken the morning of October 22. The negative ads that guarantee election victories in the United States reluctantly ceased, for even their take-no-prisoner sponsors sensed they would turn off the public as they shared his grief. The first Tuesday in November came crossing the line at a furious gallop, shouting enough already," and leaving his challengers no time to recover from the public's empathetic reaction to the loss of his perfect wife. That's how a childless widower was elected president of the United States.
He had grown up in an orphanage and that was usually the first peculiarity people learned about him. Orphanage was on the pope's mind too, when the Vatican congratulated him on his victory. The pope, caught up in the crusade to reunify the Christian world, sought to gain an advantage from the Bremanger election -- a Catholic home for boys could be the ticket to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave and a giant step closer to influencing events and world leaders into embracing his cause. Indifferent to the pope's aspiration, a new euphoria prevailed. 'After the rain the sunshine' tuned from an adage to an actuality, as Americans ushered in the era of a president the Gods seemed to favor.
The pope was correct in at least one aspect: Thomas Bremanger had no family of his own, no father to look up to or learn from; only the companionship of fellow orphans to assuage his loneliness. Detached from the familiar, he was free to create and follow his own footprints. [...]
Where does The Gospel of Thomas come from?
Following the collapse of the Soviet Union, I worked at our embassy in Bucharest, Romania. One of my jobs was acquiring documents on the Holocaust from the Ministry of the Interior and the State Security for th Holocaust Museum in Washington.
I once came across a letter from the wartime president/dictator, Marshal Ion
Antonescu, to the State Security about a farmer named David. David's picture
was attached with a paper clip. A poor farmer, he was in rags. Why would the
dictator of Romania write to inquire about one single poor farmer and his transportation status?
The Gospel of Thomas, owes a great deal to those files from the archives at the
Ministry of the Interior in Bucharest, Romania. The pictures above tell you why.
Christian Filostrat is the author of The
Beggars' Pursuit, book one of the Congo
Trilogy, a novel about a favorite dictator's reaction to the method the U.S. uses todiscard him at the end of the Cold War. And of Negritude Agonistes, a scholarly work on assimilation and nationalism in the French speaking Caribbean.
The Gospel of Thomas is the second book in the Congo Trilogy.

Below is a guide to help you manage your heart health with a clearer understanding of your overall wellness.
Schedule a checkup

Take a risk assessment
Elmhurst Memorial Healthcare can give you a complete picture of your heart health with a free 5-minute HeartAware assessment. This online assessment is free and confidential, and it can reveal the proper screening procedures for you that may identify heart disease early on. If you start taking charge of your heart health now rather than later, you may be able to reduce your heart disease risk with lifestyle changes alone.
Follow clinical recommendations
You might ask your doctor for literature and resources related to cardiac health so that you know the clinical guidelines for exercise, diet and other important factors that contribute to your cardiac function. Visiting your doctor will be an essential part of your routine, and you should have annual checkups to stay in check with the critical numbers for your heart.
To explore Elmhurst Memorial Healthcare's Cardiovascular Services, call 331-221-1000. You can start your HeartAware assessment or find a physician at Elmhurst Memorial by visiting their website.

The notorious computer hacker and FBI informant is telling his side of the story. Join us for a discussion of his beginnings, his rise to power in the hacking community and his ultimate downfall.
The FBI spills more details to US Senate on the hack that destroyed Sony's computers and leaked sensitive documents.
An email from the head of Sony Entertainment Michael Lynton to Sony staffers tells them the FBI will be on hand in their Hollywood offices this week.
The FBI releases the findings of its four-week investigation into one of the most destructive cyberattacks of a company on US soil. Meanwhile, Sony now says it wants to find a 'different platform' for showing "The Interview" after theaters pulled out.
An FBI official says the agency can't yet prove who was behind the devastating cyberattack on Sony.
Hackers claiming to be the same group behind the Sony Pictures breach are now sending disturbing emails to employees and their families.
The crime-fighting agency tells US businesses to stay alert because of some particularly nasty malware in the wild.
To stop terrorists and other criminals, cell phones should have encryption backdoors to enable US government surveillance, argues FBI Director James Comey.
In a report, the agency sees the vehicles as opening up new possibilities for law enforcement, but also for criminals.
After several corporations and universities were targeted in cyberattacks, the US government arrests Timothy French for allegedly posting thousands of people's usernames and passwords online.

TV technical union strikes against Pac-12 NetworksDecember 8, 2012 @ 8:50 pm (Updated: 11:25 am - 12/9/12 )
LOS ANGELES (AP) - The union representing freelance technical employees who work on live sporting events for Pac-12 Networks went on strike Saturday.
The International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees wants to establish area standard wages and benefits for the freelancers who work on the network's telecasts.
About 100 union members picketed outside Galen Center, where Southern California hosted No. 14 Minnesota in a men's basketball game. Picket lines also were set up at Arizona State, Oregon State, Oregon and Washington on Saturday where league games were being played. They carried signs reading, `Pac 12 Networks Unfair.'
Fewer cameras were used on USC's game. Typically, there would be six, according to Steve Aredas, international representative for the IATSE. He said the union has no dispute with any of the Pac-12 schools or arenas.
Aredas said the union has tried to communicate with Pac-12 Networks executives, but they have not responded.
"We respect individuals' right to decide whether to be represented by a union," Pac-12 Networks said in a statement. "Regardless of how they decide, we will remain focused on creating an environment that is inclusive, respectful and allows us to have direct relationships with our staff and contractors."
Since going on the air in September 2012, Pac-12 Networks has employed technicians represented by the IATSE at 10 of the league's schools in the union's jurisdiction. But the union says the network has used non-union labor on many events in those markets or a combination of union and non-union labor working side-by-side.
The union said those technicians working without a contract receive lower wages, no benefits and no job protection.
The IATSE represents members employed in stagecraft, film and television production in the U.S. and Canada.

The tongue-in-cheek phrase "predictable as Michigan weather" is a good way to describe the rollercoaster known as the global automotive economy. But for 2010, economic forecasters have at least one haven to view what's on the horizon: NAIAS - one of the world's premiere automotive and consumer events - will take place at Detroit's Cobo Center Jan. 11-24, 2010.
With a combination of buzz generated by the 2009 NAIAS and an auto industry reinventing itself daily, it promises to be a very exciting 2010. When the world's auto industry - including suppliers, manufacturers and consumers - converge once again in Detroit this January, there will be plenty to learn about emerging players and those new products that will take us into the next decade.
"We have a great show coming to Cobo this January," said Doug Fox, NAIAS Chairman. "Key individuals in the industry have told us they were extremely pleased by what was achieved at the 2009 NAIAS despite the worldwide economic challenges. The world is once again relying on the NAIAS as a forum to navigate changes, not just from the auto industry, but the global economy it affects."
Fox indicated the 2009 NAIAS brought nearly 5,500 international journalists to Detroit to witness and cover more than 50 product reveals. In addition, more than 650,000 consumers visited the NAIAS during Public Days. Also in 2009, with support from the State of Michigan, through the Michigan Economic Development Corporation's (MEDC) EcoXperience in Michigan Hall, the show added displays and environmentally friendly ride and drives that propelled NAIAS to new heights. More features and elements to the 2010 NAIAS will be announced in the coming months.
"We are looking forward to keeping our benchmark status on the international show circuit," Fox said. "Our 2010 show is going to be another milestone as well as another opportunity to illustrate what our city is all about and how this vital industry impacts the world."
The North American International Auto Show Rod Alberts - Executive Director
Entering its 22nd year as an international event, the North American International Auto Show is among the most prestigious auto shows in the world and is one of the largest media events in North America. The NAIAS is the only auto show in the United States to earn an annual distinguished sanction of the Organisation Internationale des Constructeurs d'Automobiles, the Paris-based alliance of automotive trade associations and manufacturers from around the world. The NAIAS Web site can be accessed at www.naias.com.

Branding your business.
Brand awareness
Brand awareness refers to customers' ability to recall and recognise the brand under different conditions and link to the brand name, logo, jingles and so on to certain associations in memory. It consists of both brand recognition and brand recall. It helps the customers to understand to which product or service category the particular brand belongs and what products and services are sold under the brand name. It also ensures that customers know which of their needs are satisfied by the brand through its products. Brand awareness is of critical importance since customers will not consider your brand if they are not aware of it. This is specifically important if you have a similar brand, product or service to another just down the road or even around the country. Clients are often not aware that various companies promote the same brand. Volkswagen for example, one common universal brand but different holding companies.

Yesterday, February 2nd, there were two events and some news that came out that illustrated the very different paths that two major Smartphone/Tablet OSes are taking. One has apparently chosen openness and agnosticism in content creation, purchasing and consumption, and the other seems to be getting even more locked down in these respects.
Apple unveiled The Daily, a curated news publication from News Corp. Apple endorsing this "old world" news approach lies in stark contrast to the CNN iReport features demoed by Google in their event, or even the self curated approach that the very popular iPad app, FlipBoard, takes. In addition to that major difference, they also are making waves with eBook publishers because of this announcement, which could substantially change and limit the way subscriptions and buying content for apps works on iOS. Meanwhile, Google's Honeycomb event highlighted improvements to the marketplace including more flexible currency choices for developers, the addition of in app purchases and much more. This comes just a couple weeks after the announcement that Amazon's Android marketplace will increase the amount of choice users have in their mobile purchases. As you can see, these two paths are nearly polar opposites of each other.
Don't get us wrong, we like iOS, the experience is great, the devices are extremely easy to use. It remains to be seen if the consumer market is going to pick user experience and hardware design over cost and choice though. Based on our recent post here, it appears the tide may be shifting.

My fiancé and I are American citizens but we want to have our wedding in Paris, where we originally met a few years back. How do we find out about marriage license requirements in that country?
Before you do anything, be sure that nonresidents can get marriage licenses in the country where you've decided to tie the knot. Call the embassy, consulate, or tourist office in that country and be sure to ask specifics. Find out: Which documents and medical tests do you need? How long will it take to process the paperwork? Do you need witnesses? Are there special requirements for a religious ceremony as opposed to a civil one? The Tourism Offices Worldwide Directory is also a good resource. Then you'll want to time your arrival accordingly. Bonne chance!

there is no compass in the mustang, sorry if this disappoints ya, but who the heck needs to know which direction you're driving... as long as I get...
The fact that the aftermarket "tuner" companies can't do anything except for small mods like louvers doesn't say that the 99-04 has better "lines"....
1000 below MSRP ordered oct. 7th, deliver Nov. 27th.
Easy for an insurance adjuster to tell who's the driver of a car by looking at the CD's? Please... I'm dang near 30 years old, and I listen to close...

Upon arrival in the sleazy Bullerbar you have two life choices, escape or enjoy your stay. Party hard in the club, drink bullers, hit others or check out Bullerslug live on stage. But beware, Slugs can get angry when the music stops. And you don't want to make a Slug angry.
Hit Others is a MusicVideoGame made by artist Jan van Nuenen and musician Bastiaan Bosma. Music is made by dutch band Bullerslug.
Posted By Chris Priestman 1/14/2014
Times at the Bullerbar are golden times. Punks with smashed-up faces wearing clown paint and no shirt. A band, Bullerslug, clatters on the stage at the front, loosely conducting the movements of an angry circle of clumsy violence that batters around on the bloodied and beaten floor. Piercings pull on flesh with every nudge while toes are trodden on with a defiant stamp against civil order. HitOthers is a game about punching people, drinking colored liquid from glass bottles, and jumping across the stage of a back alley gig.

Holiday & Christmas Party DJs
From Company Christmas Parties to Home Holiday Celebrations
One of the biggest joys of the season is attending company Christmas parties and holiday celebrations. Getting together with coworkers, friends, and family to celebrate gives everyone a chance to have some fun outside the norm in a party setting.
When it's time to start planning your Christmas office party, look to JTD Productions for a fantastic variety of Christmas party ideas and holiday party entertainment.
A DJ for a Company Christmas Party?
Christmas parties are an absolute must for companies, whatever their size. The company Christmas party need not be a boring affair that employees feel obligated to attend. A night out to remember at Christmas is an excellent way of offering a huge thank you to your staff for all the hard work they have put in over the year and developing a high level of team spirit. Plus, a Christmas party is a great opportunity to let your hair down and party hard. Most corporate clients have realized that the services of a disc jockey are essential to the company's events and parties as nothing feels better than an opportunity to dance to great music. Not only do company holiday parties give the staff time to relax but they also encourage close interaction and motivate the entire company. Give corporate clients and company employees a good time that they will look forward to all year and by ensuring that your corporate Christmas party is a memorable one.
Corporate Christmas Party Ideas
Try thinking of your Christmas party as an event that people look forward to, rather than just a mandatory company get together. Employees that are tired, stressed and ready for a workplace break may be hard to entice into spending even more time with one another, especially if your company Christmas party has become a tired tradition.
Mix up your company party guest list. Instead of hosting a company Christmas party that's just for staff, widen your guest list to include extended family, friends, neighbors and business associates and clients. Add in the family as they will be more likely to attend if they don't have to get sitters.
Your Christmas Party Just Got Better
At JTD Productions, we create a completely customized experience for your Christmas party tailored to your company's corporate culture. We will fit in with your requests, whether they relate to the musical style or the mood you want to create. In keeping with the spirit of Christmas, you can also let company staff choose their favorite music to be played on the night; something that will guarantee that everyone gets dancing!
We are here to help you find the ideal Christmas party, and to take the hassle out of the organization for you. We can help plan your private or company Christmas party down to the smallest detail. Your Christmas party DJ will be make sure everything at your event is performed according to your wishes.
It is never too soon to start planning your company Christmas party. Secure your preferred Christmas party date and avoid any disappointment. Early booking is definitely recommended.
