Holland first entered politics as a legislative intern in the Illinois House of Representatives. He was appointed director of the House Majority Appropriations staff in 1978, and in 1980 appointed as director of the General Assembly's Washington, D.C. office. In 1983, Holland became Chief of Staff to then-Illinois Senate President Philip Rock, a position he held until 1992.[2]
Holland, who readily admits to not being a trained auditor as well as having no accounting experience, stated, "That exposure to all of state government was very helpful and very useful to me when I began my career as the auditor general. I am surrounded by immensely talented accountants and auditors and people with a lot of experience. I've got the high-level view. They bring in the detail, and it's a pretty good mix."[3]

Political career
Illinois Auditor General (1992-Present)
Holland was unanimously re-appointed by the Illinois General Assembly as Illinois Auditor General for a third ten-year term in 2012.[1] While both parties approved of his performance, Republicans argued that the office was unnecessary.[4]
Holland was unanimously re-appointed by the Illinois General Assembly as Illinois Auditor General for a second ten-year term on August 1, 2002.[1]
Holland was first appointed by the Illinois General Assembly as Illinois Auditor General for a ten-year term on August 1, 1992.[1]
Holland lives in Springfield. He has three children and three grandchildren.[2]

To the people of the 10th Congressional District of Pennsylvania:
During the Great Depression, Franklin D. Roosevelt spoke of the "forgotten man." That's precisely how many of my neighbors and friends in the 10th congressional district feel about our politicians in Washington today, most of whom are completely beholden to the special interests, particularly the deep-pocketed wizards of Wall Street. Unlike Roosevelt, who took the idea of promoting the "General Welfare" seriously, our politicians today bail out the banks and give us austerity in return. They refuse to tax the rich yet pummel the poor by mercilessly slashing unemployment benefits, food stamps and home heating assistance. They have no earthly clue about jump-starting an economic recovery. The Republican idea of a jobs plan is a devilish blueprint for creating a third-world economy — or worse. My own party admittedly could be much more creative in its approach to reviving our stagnant economy. We need bold and imaginative ideas in Washington. We need a dynamic and forward-looking economic program that will work for the citizenry and industry alike.
The American people are hurting, and they're hurting badly. As citizens, we need — now more than ever — to assert ourselves and demand better, much better, representation from those we send to Washington. As your congressman, I will fight for all of the long-suffering, forgotten men and women in this district.
If one closely examines the current economic conditions in the 10th District, they would find a struggling population with a median household income of approximately $35,000 annually — some $16,000 less than the median household income in the United States and about $2,000 less than the relatively impoverished state of Mississippi, which ranks dead last in the nation in terms of median income. They would also find a transportation and infrastructure system in desperate need of repair, coupled with a potentially dangerous and unproven energy resource resulting in obscene billions in profits for the hydraulic fracturing industry and comparatively little for those whose land and environment is being exploited and destroyed. On top of that, the 10th district has an "official" unemployment rate in the district of 6-9% — the real jobless rate, of course, is much higher than that — and that's not taking into account seasonal workers, or the thousands who have given up looking for employment altogether.
We can do so much better.
For starters, we can begin by immediately putting the citizens of the 10thcongressional district back to work at union-scale wages by rebuilding the district's crumbling infrastructure. We can also protect our most vulnerable citizens — those dependent on Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, SNAP, WIC, LIHEAP and emergency extended unemployment benefits, etc. — through the implementation of a Wall Street Sales Tax. Revenue generated from a relatively minuscule tax of .5 to 1% on all qualified financial transactions, shared equally between the federal government and the states, would go a long way to fill the coffers of badly-depleted federal and state treasuries and allow our lawmakers to fund and expand these desperately-needed programs. What could be more fair? After all, working families in Pennsylvania pay a sales tax of at least 6% on virtually every purchase they make, yet financial speculators — the same rapacious Wall Street casinos that U.S. taxpayers generously bailed out and continue to heavily subsidize after they destroyed our economy in 2008 — pay absolutely no tax on an estimated $5 quadrillion (5,000 trillion dollars) on trades of derivatives, futures, stocks, bonds and other securities on U.S. exchanges annually.
A small tax on financial speculation would raise trillions of dollars annually, erasing the federal deficit and creating a surplus almost overnight while enabling cash-strapped state governments, such as Pennsylvania, to balance its budget and adequately fund its public programs, including its growing public pension and health liabilities for retirees.
In addition to solving our fiscal woes through a Wall Street Sales Tax, we can also fund a robust economic recovery by Nationalizing the Federal Reserve and making it work for the common good. Instead of serving as a cash-cow or lifeline for ravenous financial institutions on Wall Street, providing one bailout after another in the form of "Quantitative Easing," the Fed should serve as a badly-needed federal credit facility.
In its newly-defined role as a kind of Third National Bank of the United States — a concept originally championed by Alexander Hamilton, Robert Morris and some of our other enlightened Founding Fathers — the Federal Reserve would be mandated by Congress to issue interest-free "Century Bonds" with a coupon rate of zero percent and 100-year maturities to help state and local governments finance the rebuilding of the nation's infrastructure while putting millions of Americans back to work at decent, union-scale wages. If, month after month, the Federal Reserve is willing to continue providing steeply discounted credit to the large "zombie banks" responsible for the country's sharp economic downturn more than five years ago, then it ought to be willing to provide the same sort of cheap public credit to the struggling victims of this seemingly never-ending crisis of Wall Street's making.

Miami-Dade County Public Schools
plans to implement interactive whiteboards in more than 10,000 classrooms and
will provide teachers with an 18-month professional development program designed
to help them integrate the technology into their classrooms effectively.
The district has selected
ActivBoard Touch interactive whiteboards from
Promethean, and the company will
collaborate with the district to provide the customized professional
"The school district is doing more than just purchasing cutting edge
technology," wrote Morten Brante, senior vice president, Services Division for
Promethean, in an e-mail. "They want to ensure that the technology is properly
used in the classroom to motivate their students and engage them in the
curriculum. Most people will agree that without proper training an interactive
whiteboard is just an expensive projector."
According to Brante, the district and Promethean together will invest in a
dedicated full-time professional development team local to the Miami area. "This
team will provide the school district with ongoing customized training and
continuous education to ensure teaching is driving technology, not technology
driving teaching," wrote Brante. "We go beyond training the educators on how to
use the technology; we teach innovative techniques in how to incorporate the
technology into the curriculum."
The ActivBoard Touch lets two people at a time write on the board using
either the ActivPen stylus or a finger, so two students can work on the board
simultaneously, or a teacher and student can work together. According to the
company's site, the boards also include Promethean
ActivInspire Professional Edition software, which lets teachers create
interactive lessons for use on the whiteboard. Teachers can also search, view
and download prepared lessons or other digital learning resources from
Promethean Planet, the company's
online repository containing more than 93,000 free teacher resources.
The district will begin installing the ActivBoards later this month and all
of the boards are expected to be installed before the beginning of the 2014-2015 school year.

BLOODLINE Images: Netflix's Upcoming New Series Featuring Kyle Chandler, Ben Mendelsohn, Linda Cardellini, Sissy Spacek and Sam Shepard
by Perri Nemiroff Posted 42 days ago
The very first teaser trailer for Netflix's new original series Bloodline hit a couple of weeks ago and while it did feature a Kyle Chandler voiceover, we didn't get a single glimpse of any of the main characters. We don't have additional footage to share just yet, but Netflix did release six new Bloodline images featuring Chandler as John Rayburn, Ben Mendelsohn as Danny Rayburn, Linda Cardellini as Meg Rayburn, Sam Shepard as Robert Rayburn and Sissy Spacek as Sally Rayburn.
Add Norbert Leo Butz's Kevin Rayburn and Jacinda Barrett's Diana Rayburn to the list and you get the full Rayburn clan, a close-knit group that's rattled when the black sheep brother (Mendelsohn) returns home, exposing family secrets and scars. Bloodline will be released in March 2015 and also stars Jamie McShane and Enrique Murciano.

If you, like my family, have made plans to head to New York this December but have not planned far enough ahead to, say, buy tickets to a Broadway show, you're in luck: there are plenty of others like you who are spontaneous theatergoers. Well, fly-by-night patrons in search of available, affordable, AND quality tickets need not worry about getting last pick, a la an unfortunate dodgeball game or holiday dinner behind greedier and more robust relatives.
EW's stage team has highlighted seven shows (four Broadway, three Off Broadway) that you should — and more importantly can – still get tickets to upon your visit these next few weeks in December. They're sensational shows, only made better by the fact that you don't necessarily have to wait in the cold at TKTS or book months in advance to enjoy the experiences that people may still be fond of next year. (Also, stick around EW.com next week for our editor's Top 10 stage picks of 2013!)
Big Fish (EW's Grade: B+)
You only have a few more weeks to catch this extraordinarily inventive and heartstring-tugging love letter to the grand traditions of musical theater (with the production values of 2013 thrown in, of course) before it closes December 29. Two-time Tony winner Norbert Leo Butz is utterly mesmerizing, as are the supporting cast (like the dynamite Kate Baldwin, whose name you'll be hearing more and more) and an old-fashioned score by Andrew Lippa that will have you humming for days.

|Oldham Towns
Oldham's Danish settlers named the place "Aldehulme" around 865 AD. There had been a wool industry in the area centuries before the Industrial Revolution. Oldham's population increased from 12,000 in 1801 to over 100,000 by the end of the 19th Century. Oldham already had 89 cotton mills by 1830, compared with Manchester's 100. Oldham dominated the world's cotton spinning industry at the end of the 19th Century: in 1890 the town produced 11.4 million spindles, 13% of the 87 million produced in the entire world. There are a number of important satellite towns around Oldham, which also played an important role in the growth of the local cotton industry.
Chadderton (established in 350 AD as Streetbridge) had over 50 spinning mills by the late 19th Century, as well as a strong coal mining industry. The town was built on three main industries, textiles, engineering and aircraft production. The first cotton factory was built in 1776, and at the height of the Lancashire cotton trade there were sixty mills in Chadderton. The last mill in production spun its final length of cotton in 2000. As in other cotton towns, many of the surviving mill buildings have been put to other uses. Part of the massive Hartford Engineering Works, the largest engineering works in the world, was based at Chadderton, cotton mill machinery was exported all over the world from Platt Brothers' Hartford Works. In 1938 A.V. Roe and Company built a large new factory on Greengate, moving from their old site in Newton Heath, the new factory was to be twice as big as any other aircraft factory. During World War II over three thousand Avro Lancaster Bombers were built at the Chadderton factory.
Chadderton's notables include Henry Taylor, Britain's greatest ever amateur swimmer, who won three gold medals at the Olympic games held in London in 1908, he also held many swimming records, and won 35 trophies and 300 medals during his swimming lifetime. Another native of Chadderton was Lydia Becker, suffragette and champion of education for girls, she was the first woman to serve on the Manchester School Board, and was re-elected every year for twenty years until her death from diptheria in 1890. She was born at Foxdenton Hall, her father, Hannibal Becker, was the owner of a chemical plant in Chadderton.
Crompton lies to the north of Oldham and was historically a textile town: the town's wool industry dates back to the 1400s, with early the mills at Low Crompton and Greenfield, Shaw being established by the 18th century. In the eighteenth century a law stated that everyone buried in Crompton must be buried in woollen garments, wool being the main industry in the town until superseded by cotton in the late eighteenth century. By 1920 Crompton had 36 cotton mills, after which it declined until the last mill closed in 1989.
Set on the main road between Manchester and Oldham, Failsworth is famous for its historic landmark Failsworth Pole. There has been a settlement in the area since Saxon times and the Romans built a road through. Famous sons include Ben Brierley, and more recently Michael Atherton, the former England captain.
Failsworth is a mill town, the first cotton mill being built in 1825, the year Ben Brierley was born, but there were also silk and hatmaking factories and dyeworks near the border with the Manchester districts of Clayton and Bradford. The country park of Daisy Nook is between Failsworth and Droylsden and in the heyday of the cotton mills provided an escape to the fresh air for the millworkers.
Named after Lord of the Manor John de Leghes in the 14th Century, Lees was a rural conglomeration of small hamlets, which saw its ambitions to be a Lancastrian spa town (Lees' natural springs were visited by thousands in the 18th Century) thwarted by the urbanisation caused by the Industrial Revolution. Before it became a mill town, Lees was known for the restorative power of its spa water, which was bottled and sold around the country. Annie Kenney, one of the first suffragettes to be imprisoned worked at the Leesbrook Mill.
The first written record of the name Ryeton (or Ryton) was in a survey of 1212. Lying to the north west of Oldham, Royton was reputed to be the home of the first powered cotton spinning mill in Britain, Thorp Mill, built there in 1764. Ironically, Royton was the location of Elk Mill, the last cotton spinning mill to be built in England, in 1928. The Shiloh PLC cotton spinning company still produces cotton wool in Royton.
To the east of Oldham and bordering on the Pennines, Saddleworth dates from before the Norman Conquest and was mentionned in the Domesday Book, with Stone Age burial sites found nearby. A Roman road ran through a former fort established at Castleshaw in AD79. Abundant grazing land and soft water enabled a flourishing wool industry where local people were already skilled spinners and weavers centuries before the cotton industry came to nearby Oldham. Two-thirds of the area covered by Saddleworth is rural and is part of the Peak District National Park. It is home to a museum and many arts and crafts shops and hosts a famous brass band contest. Famous natives of the area are the Wrigley family, manufacturers of the well-known chewing gum.
In its heyday Shaw was said to have more millionaires than any other area, mainly because of the share dealing associated with many of its cotton mills. It contained one sixth of all the spindles in Oldham, the largest spinning town in the world. Today many of the remaining mills are in use as industrial units and a large catalogue company has a distribution centre at Shaw Mill.

Aurora Flight Sciences Corporation
has announced the successful first flight of its unique
GoldenEye-100 unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). During the early
morning hours on Monday, the barrel-shaped autonomous vehicle
executed a smooth vertical take-off and transition to a stable
hover well above the ground-hugging mist at the Manassas Regional
Airport in Virginia. "This demonstration completes a key milestone
in our development program," according to Carl Schaefer,
GoldenEye-100 Program Manager. "It confirms the robustness of
flight control systems and other key technologies in this unique
autonomous system."
GoldenEye features unconventional performance that enables it to
take-off and land vertically, like a helicopter, then level off
into horizontal flight by virtue of rotating wings. This provides
users with access to a bird's-eye- view of hard to reach areas. Its
engine, known as a ducted-fan, is a propeller shrouded within a
cylindrical body -- a design that integrates advanced lightweight
structures and innovative flight controls to achieve the remarkable
performance. A key subsystem that contributed to flight success is
the GuideStar(TM) flight control system developed by Aurora's
sister company, Athena Technologies.
The GoldenEye-100 has been tailored as an affordable military or
civilian UAV for low-altitude reconnaissance, surveillance or
target acquisition missions. GoldenEye-100 stands 5.5 feet tall
with a gross takeoff weight of 150 pounds. The aircraft can cruise
up to four hours with a range of more than 500 miles at a maximum
speed of 160 knots.
In addition to the 150-pound vehicle, Aurora is developing a
smaller, 16- pound derivative called GoldenEye-50. Aurora plans to
build multiple GoldenEye-50s for homeland security applications and
expansion of the rapid flight envelope of the ducted-fan vehicle
class. This includes transition from hover to horizontal flight and
high-speed dash performance.
"This was an outstanding execution of first flight for this
unique surveillance tool," said Aurora president John Langford, "a
tool we see as playing a key role in the company's future." Aurora
was founded in 1989 to develop affordable robotic aircraft for
global climate change research. Aurora Flight Sciences is a leading
supplier of unmanned air vehicle designs, components, and flight
services for government, industry, and academic clients. Aurora
operates facilities in Virginia, West Virginia, and California. The
company specializes in the design and production of high-altitude
UAVs, and is a major supplier of composite structures for Global
Hawk and other aircraft.

Sea-Eagle Aviary
Status Update as of 5/24/13: Bird species are still being fully integrated into the new exhibit in various configurations, so please check back for regular updates. The configuration can change at any time without notice to accommodate weather, new species introductions, feeding schedules and locations, breeding, training and so on.
- Sea-Eagles: expected to be in daily from 10 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.
- Mandarin Ducks: expected to be in daily from 10 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.
- Azure-Winged Magpie: expected to be in daily from 10 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.
- Red-Breasted Goose: to be introduced soon
Follow the process via our blog – Inside the Nest.
A Rare Home for a Rare Raptor
The Zoo's new aviary for our Steller's Sea-Eagles and birds of Far East Russia is a home like no other. Most of us dream of a home with a stream and waterfall, but for the eagles, their new aviary offers both of these luxuries plus other important features tailor-made for these very rare and magnificent raptors.
The aviary represents the final phase of the Zoo's award-winning Glacier Run exhibit. Known to have wingspans of up to eight feet, the spectacular Steller's Sea-Eagles require a vast amount of space to have privacy at their lofty nest which in turn encourages breeding. The Zoo will work hard to breed these rare eagles. The species is vulnerable to extinction with about 4,000 birds in the wild.
Steller's Sea-Eagles are native to Eastern Russia, so the Zoo's new aviary was styled after a Russian evergreen forest. Here are some of the things guests will see when they step into the aviary:
- A pair of Steller's Sea-Eagles. The male is named Piotr; the female, the larger of the two, is named Anna. They arrived from the San Diego Zoo in December 2012.
- The aviary is more than 50 feet tall and features a stream and waterfall
- An artificial pine tree extends to the top of the exhibit and features a nest 40 feet above ground plus tree limbs that will encourage the eagles to fly from level to level
- A nest-cam will allow guests to unobtrusively watch the eagles raise any young that are hatched
- The Eagles will have neighbors that are a part of their natural ecosystem including the azure-winged magpie, red-breasted geese and mandarin ducks which will also share the same space
- A thin mesh separates the magpie, geese and ducks from the Eagles but allows the birds to see into the Eagles' home. Several small openings in the mesh divider also allow them to crossover and explore the Sea-Eagles' habitat
Meet the Neighbors
Inhabitants of the same harsh Far East regions as the Steller's Sea-Eagles, the azure-winged magpie, the mandarin duck and red-breasted goose will live in the same aviary.
Red-Breasted Goose
The red-breasted goose is easily identified by its black head and back flanks of white feathers and bold chestnut-red breast. Recent declines in its population have placed the species on the precautionary endangered species list. Because it's in danger of extinction, your Zoo will make every effort to breed this species.
One might say the red-breasted goose is quite the traveler. It is known for breeding in Arctic Europe, wintering in southeastern Europe and occasionally visiting Great Britain and other western European regions.
The goose is an herbivore, which means it feasts on grasses and herbs. Its vegetarian diet keeps it svelte with the female averaging 2.5 pounds and the male weighing between 2.9 and 3.5 pounds.
Azure-Winged Magpie
The saying, "birds of a feather flock together," is certainly true of the azure-winged magpie. These attractive birds are known for roaming, migrating and living in groups. They even take the neighborly approach to helping other magpies raise their young. A female magpie can lay up to nine eggs at once needing a village to help care for that many new fledglings.
A member of the crow family, the name "azure-winged" derives from the light blue azure-colored feathers on its tails and wings. It has a variety of calls including whistles and trills that allow members of the group to stay connected. While it normally feasts on acorns and nuts, it supplements its diet with soft fruits and berries, small insects and their larvae.
The magpie is rare in captivity. The Zoo will make every effort to breed the magpie as part of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums captive management program.
Mandarin Duck
The drake (male) mandarin duck is striking in appearance and one of the most beautiful ducks in the world. With its glossy green forehead, green-bronze crest feathers, a bronze colored face with white streaks above the eye, a bright red bill and an iridescent maroon colored breast, it is considered a highly ornamental species. Males when not in breeding plumage retain dull grey feathers much like the hens.
Mandarin ducks are native to eastern Asia and can be found year-round in Japan and Taiwan, with their summer range extending to include eastern Russia and Mongolia. In winter, migratory populations can be found in eastern China. These birds have been widely imported around the world so it is entirely possible you may have seen one in your travels.

Hey crew,
I'm making a responsive website where the submenu has position:absolute. When switching to mobile (width < 580) it becomes relative again.
But when increasing window size again, the position:absolute is not picked up again. This problem only occurs in Chrome.
Link to the code:
Thanks for the help!
PS: Safari also refuses to revert back correctly.
@Yvon, your submenu is just fine, it goes back to absolute for me in Chrome, but I'd change your parent menu's `
That did the trick! Thanks Chris. After a while, you've just been staring too long at the same code :)

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (SUBMITTED) -- Tennessee's sprinting star Evander Wells college football career came to an unfortunate end less than a week into fall camp. Dooley said the 9-time track All-America tore his ACL in practice Sunday.
Wells wrapped up his stellar track and field career for the Vols in the spring before joining the football team. He finished fourth in the 200-meter dash at the NCAA Championships in June. Later that month, he placed fourth in the 200 and seventh in the 100 at the USA Track & Field Championships.
Dooley said Wells could have factored into the Vols' return game.

The Breen Confederacy was the interstellar state of the Breen species. (DS9 episode: "'Til Death Do Us Part")
The Breen Confederacy was headed by the Breen Domo. (ST - Destiny novel: Mere Mortals)
In 2375, under the leadership of Thot Gor, the Breen Confederacy allowed itself to be annexed by the Dominion, joining the Dominion War during that conflict's closing months. Forces from the Breen Confederacy launched an attack upon Earth, the capital planet of the United Federation of Planets, destroying much of Starfleet Headquarters, San Francisco, and other cities on the surface, killing thousands. (DS9 episodes: "Strange Bedfellows", "The Changing Face of Evil"; TNG - Tales of the Dominion War short story: "Eleven Hours Out")
While Breen forces initially led to several Dominion victories due to their energy-dampening weapon, the weapon was later countered, and the Breen later surrendered along with the rest of the Dominion in orbit of Cardassia Prime. The subsequent peace treaty re-established the Breen Confederacy and the Cardassian Union as independent states. (DS9 episode & novelization: What You Leave Behind)
The Breen Confederacy remained an object of concern for many in the Federation following the war. (DS9 novel: Avatar; TOS novel: Vulcan's Soul)
In 2381, the Breen attended a compulsory summit called by the Federation President in an effort to gain allies against the Borg Collective. (ST - Destiny novel: Mere Mortals)
The Confederacy would soon after join the Typhon Pact against the members of the Khitomer Accords. (ST - Destiny novel: A Singular Destiny)
In 2382 the Breen launched an intelligence mission against the United Federation of Planets at Utopia Planitia Fleet Yards. The Breen captured information related to the quantum slipstream drive in order to deliver working prototypes to the Typhon Pact members. They began work on a prototype vessel at the colony world of Salavat under tight scrutiny of the Romulan Star Empire and the Gorn Hegemony. The lead researcher of the project, Thot Keer, intentionally kept key research notes from the other powers in order to maintain the Breen's position within the Pact as a leading power. (ST - Typhon Pact novel: Zero Sum Game)
As was the case with most things surrounding the Breen, the nature and operation of their goverment was a mystery. Noted diplomatic observers had stated that they always dealt with an ever changing cast of lower ranking functionaries. These individuals were also quite reluctant in revealing their identities. The only determining factor in observations of Breen society was that their military officials made the high level decisions and there did not appear to be any civilian government.
Relations between the Federation and the Breen were described as tenuous at best by the year 2360. The territory of the Breen Confederacy resided near that of the Sheliak Corporate. This was a source of conflict between the two empires. (TNG novel: The Buried Age)
They also had some form of conflict with the Romulans with the Breen Confederacy managing to either emulate or steal cloaking technology from the Romulan Star Empire. Despite this hostility between the two, the Romulans never managed to decisively reach the Breen homeworld. (Decipher RPG module: Worlds)
Intelligence reports on Breen society and biology were consistently inconsistent and contradictory. It was only recently that a team of undercover operatives, after they made it inside Breen space, revealed the Breen are in fact several different species working together. The suits employed by the Breen Confederacy were designed to provide every member of the Confederacy an equal chance to have success so that they were not biased against because of their species. Some of the more notable species include the human-like Silwaan; the Fenrisal, whose snouts required the distinctive shape of the Breen helmet; the bloodless Amoniri, who require refrigeration in their suits to prevent evaporation; and the Paclu, whose four-lobed brains defy telepathy.
It is important to note that there was an active dissident movement among the Breen colonies as of 2382, with many members wanting to seek political asylum within the United Federation of Planets. (ST - Typhon Pact novel: Zero Sum Game)
The territory of the Breen Confederacy resided near the Sheliak Corporate. The region of space out past Albireo was beyond the far border of Breen space, however, they had been establishing protectorates there for decades. This was part of a level of expansion spinward after their attempts at expanding anti-spinward were blocked by the Federation. This was a source of conflict between the two empires. (TNG novel: The Buried Age)
The Romulan Star Empire holds some key territory in the Alpha Quadrant, including a frontier that borders the space of the Breen. (Last Unicorn RPG module: The Way of D'era: The Romulan Star Empire)

Yeah i received mine, just keep pestering
Earlier this year, I was invited to a Meraki Webinar from Longbenton College and offered a free Wireless AP if I 'attended'.
Had some post-webinar marketing emails but never received my free AP, despite contacting two different people about it.
I was just wondering if anybody on here actually received a free AP.
Yeah i received mine, just keep pestering
I received one with no problem - however a friend of mine who did it did not receive his. However it could be because I had a call from someone else in Meraki inviting me to another webinar a few days later and I mentioned it to them on the phone.
He chased them up over it once mine arrived and I think they sent one straight out,
I've just filled in a contact form on their website. Hope this does the trick.
Way back in May, I attended a Meraki Webinar from LongbentonCollege, with the promise of a free Wireless AP.(Not sure why it keeps putting an 'end quote' tag after the first sentence!)After the webinar, I received a few emails from … whorequested our VAT ID and address, which I provided on 1 July. However, we didnot receive our AP. I emailed … in September, but received no response.Later, I received an invite to attend another webinar from'York College', again offering a free AP. While I did not attend this sessions, I did contact … to ask her tochase up our outstanding AP. Once again, I received no response.After posting on the EduGeek forum, I have found that somedid receive an AP, some had to chase it up, and others didn't receive one atall.
Hopefully, this email will put me in the 'had to chase itup' category.Thanks for your time.
Last edited by StevieM; 5th November 2013 at 12:10 PM.
I didn't attend that webinar but I have received a free MR12 for attending a webinar so it's a real offer. You will have to provide a valid VAT number to get it for free.
Dom_'s advice and keep pestering.
I attended one of their webinars and got a free AP. Phoned them after the webinar and gave them the school details, explained we weren't VAT registered (which was fine). The MR12 AP was delivered a few weeks later.
I can PM you an email address to try if you like?
I got one too.
Not a bad AP either.
Thanks all.
Received an email this morning:
Hail to the power of pester.Hi Steve,
Your free Meraki access point has just shipped.
I got mine within 2 days, nice pieces of kit also.
It is a valid offer - They offer the MR12 for free.
For anybody who tries to test throughput and load on one of these devices, it is the one at the lowest end of the range - so if you don't get amazing performance don't be too surprised.
I did the Meraki CMNA earlier this year and nicely have a Meraki MR24 AP, MX60 Firewall and a 24 port switch out of it
I got mine, really like the unit and the info it's giving us. Would love if ruckus could give info back as nicely.

Cut your razor blade expenses in half! The act of shaving is not the leading cause of a dull blade. In fact, the 24 hours in between shaves do more damage to your razor blades than the shave itself. Exposure to air (oxidation) corrodes blades quickly, leading to a jagged edge and ultimately nicks and cuts. Using safe and natural ingredients, Blade Oil™ has been clinically shown to slow the effects of oxidation and extend blade life by up to 95%. This saves you money and produces less waste. Works with all razor blades No mess - applies directly to the blades Travel friendly Safe and natural ingredients Lasts up to 160 applications
Helianthus Annuus (Hybrid Sunflower) Oil, Laureth-4, Cyclopentasiloxane, Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil, Aloe Barbadensis (Organic Aloe Vera) Leaf Juice, Aleurites Moluccana Seed (Kukui Nut) Oil, Tocopherol (Antioxidant), Limnanthes Alba (Meadowfoam) Seed Oil, Cucumis Sativus (Cucumber) Fruit Extract, Citrus Aurantium Bergamia (Bergamot) Fruit Oil, Essential Oils
Key advantage - Blade Oil extends the life of these high priced 5 blade disposable razors. Great products! - Sabina
This product is nothing short of amazing! Using Shick Quarttro blades they are now lasting 2 weeks+, I will be using the blade oil from now on. - Don
While the product works as advertized and extends the life of my blades (5 star), the bottle (2 star) is incredibly small and hard to use. I doubt that I'm the only guy with large hands. I would find a larger bottle easier to use. - T.B.
I tried the blade oil for a few weeks now and it is great stuff. I noticed the improvement, my blades last longer and the applicator is easier to use than the earlier model. Thanks. - A.W. – Lincoln, NE
I have a pretty heavy beard, and I can get 2-3 weeks per Mach 3 blade using the blade oil. Saves money and reduces waste -- double win! - Craig I
Excellent product - even better customer service. PSC made me a very happy customer.
- G. Jackson

nothing 2 years ago
10 years after introducing 43 Things to the world, we have decided we have met our last goal: completing the incredible experience that has been 43 Things. Please join us in giving one last cheer to all the folks who have shared their goals with the world, as well as all the people who have worked at The Robot Co-op to build this incredible website. We won a Webby Award, published a book, and brought happiness to a lot of people.
Starting today, 43 Things users can export their goals and entries from the site. Starting August 15, we will make the site "read only". 43 Things users will still be able to view the site and export their content, but we won't be taking any new content from users. We hope to leave the site up for folks to see and download their content until the end of the year. Ending on New Year's Eve takes us full circle.
It has been a long ride (one of our original goals was to "build a company that lasts at least 2 years" - we beat that one!) While we wish the site could live on, it has suffered from a number of challenges - changes in how people use the site, the advertising industry, and how search engines view the site. We wish the outcome was different – but we've always been realistic about when our goals are met and when they aren't.
As of today, you will be able to download your goals and entries. See more about that on the FAQ page. Thanks for 10 great years of goal-setting and achieving.
- The Robots.
