Framework: An Integrated Approach to Portfolio, Program and Project
(Rev. 2012-01-09)
8.1 Project Control Plan Implementation
8.1.1 Description
Project control plan implementation is the process of integrating all aspects of the project control plan; validating that the plans are comprehensive and consistent with requirements and ready for control; initiating mechanisms or systems for project control; and communicating the integrated project control plan to those responsible for the projects work packages. This process initiates project control for the current project phase for which work has been authorized by the project implementation process (Section 4.1). For example, control plans may be implemented at the start of each successive planning phase and then again prior to the final execution phase.
.1 Control Accounts
A key concept for project control plan implementation is the control account that functionally integrates the project control plan components (i.e., cost, schedule, resources, risk, and procurement). The control account relates directly to a work package component from the work breakdown structure (WBS) for which responsibility has been assigned (in accordance with the organizational breakdown structure [OBS] and the procurement plan), and for which cost budgets and resources have been assigned, and activities scheduled. However, a control account may include one or more work packages that are in the same branch of the WBS hierarchy and for which the same person in the OBS is responsible. Figure 8.1-1 illustrates the control account concept at the project execution phase.
Figure 8.1-1 Example of the Control Account
.2 Phased Control
As discussed in Section 4.1, the project implementation process uses phases and gates wherein a gate review is conducted at the end of each phase that results in updated direction (i.e., a decision to proceed to the next phase, request for additional work or information, or a halt to the project) and resource authorizations (i.e., phased project funding). After funds for a phase are authorized, the work for that phase usually begins in earnest. Therefore, a key concept for project control plan implementation is phased control, which recognizes that project control must start when work begins for a project phase. Implementation of project control cannot wait until the start of execution phase.[59]
For example, project control planning for the project execution phase (e.g., detailed engineering and construction) is performed during the preliminary design phase, and planning for the control of the preliminary design phase during the conceptual phase. Because the scope of work during the early phases is usually limited in extent (e.g., first or second level of the WBS, few people on the project team, few material purchases or contracts, etc.), project control planning is a simpler process than for the later execution phase when most of the work will be done.
8.1.2 Process Map for Project Control Plan Implementation
Figure 8.1-2 illustrates the process map for project control plan implementation. The primary inputs are control plan components and the primary outputs are control accounts, which are part of an integrated basis for project control for the next phase of work.
As was discussed, this process and the other project control planning processes are applied in a phased manner as project work is implemented (Section 4.1). Also, the input from the change management process (Section 10.3) is intended to illustrate that changes to the project control plan basis may be made that require implementation of a "revised" control plan. Implementations driven by changes follow the basic process but, depending on the scope of the changes, mid-phase implementation is usually quick with less effort. For mid-phase changes, the words "Maintain" or "Revise" apply to the steps rather than "Develop." However, the importance of communicating plan revisions to the project team is no less than for the initial plan implementation.
Figure 8.1-2 Process Map for Project Control Plan Implementation
The following sections briefly describe the steps in the project control plan implementation process.
.1 Develop Control Accounts
At the start of the process, the control accounts (see Section 220.127.116.11) are developed by the project control person or team. The process is generally more iterative with the various project control planning processes (Sections 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 7.5 and 7.6) than indicated by Figure 8.1-2. As indicated by the "feedback" arrows, as the control accounts are developed, improvements to various aspects of the control plan may be made. Also, as discussed, if the process is initiated by a change, then control accounts are "maintained," rather than developed.
.2 Develop Project Control Plan
While control accounts functionally integrate the working aspects of the plans components, a control plan procedure is also developed to communicate the plan. This deliverable is part of an overall project execution plan (PEP) that describes specific approaches that each functional entity (engineering, procurement, construction, safety, quality, etc.) will use. The project control plan is part of the PEP. The PEP is an extension of the execution strategy defined during scope development (Section 7.1).
The control plan describes specific systems and approaches to be used in project control. The plan is more of a narrative or qualitative representation (i.e., a communication tool) of the project control plan, while the control accounts, estimate, schedule, and so on represent the quantitative aspects.
The control plan will also outline both the control systems and the reports to be used. The control systems will have policies, procedures, and other aspects that guide and support effective project control.
.3 Document Control Plan Basis
The basis of the control plan components (i.e., cost, schedule, resources, risk, and procurement) and control accounts must be documented. This document describes how the control plan component was developed and defines the information used in support of that development. This document commonly includes, but is not limited to, a description of the scope included, methodologies used, references and defining deliverables used, assumptions and exclusions made, clarifications, adjustments, and some indication of the level of uncertainty. The basis of the plans and accounts must be well defined so that proposed changes can be evaluated to determine if there really is a change, and if so, to what extent (Section 10.3).
.4 Review and Validate Control Plan
The project control plan, control accounts, and documentation are reviewed by the project team to determine whether they are complete and suitable as a manageable basis for control, whether they meet project objectives and requirements, and whether they are competitive with industry best practices and historical approaches (i.e., validation). A useful tool for reviews is a readiness checklist for the project control function that helps assess that all aspects of the plan are complete and ready for implementation in all regards.
It is a challenge to develop "manageable" control accounts and systems. If measuring, reporting, and/or assessing control data is too burdensome (e.g., too detailed, frequent, difficult to understand, etc.), the process can stop working effectively (i.e., "analysis paralysis") and/or those responsible for the work will find ways to work around the project control system. Conversely, if the information is not detailed or frequent enough, or tools are inadequate, the control exercise can also become meaningless. Either way, the project is at risk for getting out of control. A good way to help determine if project control plans and accounts will be "manageable" is to develop and maintain standards and/or templates for successful approaches based on historical practices as captured in a historical database (Section 10.4).
Validation is applied specifically to plans to assess whether the plan results are appropriate and achieve the performance objectives. Validation usually involves benchmarking, which is a process that compares practices, processes, and relevant measures to those of a selected basis of comparison (i.e., the benchmark) with the goal of improving performance. The comparison basis includes internal or external best practices, processes, or measures. In validation, the "relevant measures" used are referred to as metrics; these metrics are developed in the project historical database management process (Section 10.4). While each plan element is usually reviewed and validated separately as it is developed; the project team should review and validate the integrated plan as a whole before implementation.
.5 Communicate and Initiate Project Control Systems
Those responsible for work packages must understand the project control plans and their control accounts. Those responsible for interfaces with the project control process (e.g., business accounting and financing) also need to understand those aspects of the project control plan that affect them. The PEP, including the project control plan, facilitates understanding; however, training may be required in the roles and the tasks that various responsible parties need to perform in support of project control.
If the responsibility for a work package lies with a supplier or contractor, the procurement planning process (Section 7.7) will have defined all the interfaces of the suppliers and contractors with the project control process. Suppliers, sub-contractors, and contractors generally prepare their own control plans and control accounting. However, these must be consistent with the overall control plans and control accounting to the extent required by the contract.
Once all parties are ready for control, the project control leader integrates the plans into mechanisms or systems for control. Information technology tools are at the core of the systems including software for scheduling, cost/schedule reporting, and project cost accounting as well as working databases used for or interfacing with this software. Initially the databases will contain the budgeted value, schedule, and resource data (these working databases are generally separate from the historical databases described in Section 10.4). As the project progresses, actual measured data are captured for assessment against the plans. At implementation, information security mechanisms must be established to control who may enter, change, delete, view, or otherwise use data and information in or from the database. In addition, the interaction/interface of owner, supplier, and contractor systems must be considered and resolved.
At the conclusion of project control plan implementation, the project control plan will have been documented and communicated to the project team, those responsible for work packages will understand their control responsibilities and their control accounts, and project control systems and tools will be set up and ready to support the project control measurement (Sections 9.1 and 9.2), performance assessment (Section 10.1), forecasting (Section 10.2), and change management (Section 10.3) processes.
It is important to note that no resources or funds should be committed without appropriate plans, budgets, and authorizations, as communicated by an initiation process such as described in this section.
8.1.3 Inputs to Project Control Plan Implementation
.1 Project Implementation Basis. The project implementation process (see Section 4.1) provides the asset scope, objectives, constraints, and assumptions basis for the project, as well as authorizing funds and resources. The project control plan must be consistent with the requirements established for the project.
.2 Execution Strategy. This defines the general approaches through which the work packages will be performed (Section 7.1); the project control plan must be consistent with the agreed upon approaches.
.3 WBS, OBS, and Work Packages. These deliverables from the scope development process (Section 7.1) define the scope of and responsibility for the control accounts.
.4 Planning Information. Project planning provides information that is incorporated in the control accounts. Schedule activities are inputs from schedule planning and development (Section 7.2), budgeted costs are input from cost estimating and budgeting (Section 7.3), and resource quantities are inputs from resource planning (Section 7.4). While each planning process considers risk, the risk management plan (Section 7.6) is also a component of the project control plan. Procurement planning (Section 7.7) defines supplier and contractor requirements for project control planning and control accounting.
.5 Changes. During project execution, changes to the baseline scope definition and plans are identified in the change management process (see Section 10.3). Each change goes through the project control planning processes so that it can be appropriately integrated into the project control plans and accounts.
.6 Validation Metrics. Historically based benchmarks and metrics (Section 10.4) are used in the validation step.
.7 Historical Project Information. Successful past project control plans and control account approaches are commonly used as project control plan implementation references.
8.1.4 Outputs from Project Control Plan Implementation
.1 Basis for Project Control. The project control plan and control accounts are integrated into systems for control. Information technology tools are at the core of the systems including software for scheduling cost/schedule reporting and project accounting, as well as databases used for or interfacing with software. The basis for project control also includes policies, procedures, and other documents that guide and support effective project control.
.2 WBS, OBS, and Work Packages. As control accounts are developed, improvements may be identified.
.3 Planning Information. As control accounts are developed, improvements to any of the project control planning components may be identified.
8.1.5 Key Concepts for Project Control Plan Implementation
The following concepts and terminology described in this and other chapters are particularly important to understanding the project control implementation process of TCM:
.1 Control Accounts. (See Section 184.108.40.206 and Figure 8.1-1).
.2 Project Control Plan. (See Section 22.214.171.124).
.3 Project Execution Plan (PEP). (See Section 18.104.22.168).
.4 Basis. (See Section 18.104.22.168).
.5 Validation. (See Section 220.127.116.11).
Further Readings and Sources
Project control plan implementation is generally covered in project management, project control, and project planning and scheduling texts, and not as a subject in itself. It is included as a separate process in TCM to highlight the importance of assuring that all aspects of the project control plan are integrated and validated as a whole, a step that is sometimes overlooked in treatments that focus on separate project control functions.

According to a July 13, 2011, FDA safety alert, complications linked to transvaginal mesh implants are "not rare" and the use of such devices may actually be more harmful compared to alternative methods for treating POP. The FDA has also asked 33 manufacturers, including Johnson & Johnson, to conduct post-market safety studies in order to investigate the effect of vaginal mesh on organ damage and other health concerns. (http://www.fda.gov/medicaldevices/safety/alertsandnotices/ucm262435.htm)
Thousands of transvaginal mesh lawsuits have been filed in the United States. Many have been consolidated into five MDLs now pending in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of West Virginia. The other MDLs are: In Re: Boston Scientific Products Liability Litigation, MDL No. 2326; In Re: C.R. Bard, Inc., Pelvic Repair Systems Products Liability Litigation, MDL No. 2187; In Re: Ethicon, Inc., Pelvic Repair Systems Products Liability Litigation, MDL No. 2327; and In Re Coloplast Corp. Pelvic Support Systems Products Liability Litigation, MDL No. 2387.
The first transvaginal mesh lawsuit to go to trial led to an $11.1 million verdict in favor of the Plaintiff (Gross v. Gynecare Inc., Atl-L-6966-10, Superior Court of Atlantic County, New Jersey), according to a Feb. 28, 2013, Bloomberg report. The Plaintiff's case was the first of 4,000 Gynecare Prolift cases expected to go to trial. Johnson & Johnson was ordered to pay $3.35 million in compensatory damages and $7.76 million for punitive damages.(/'/>"/>

What's Wrong With Charlie Wilson's War, According To Melissa Roddy
Producer Melissa Roddy isn't happy about parts of Charlie Wilson's War, and has made a short outlining what she deems misinformation:
In the latter half of the movie, there is one big lie and one item of anti-Afghan propaganda. The lie is that U.S. support to the mujahiddin went only to the faction led by Ahmad Shah Massoud, the Afghan leader who was assassinated on Sept. 9, 2001.
In the same scene in the movie as the misinformation about Massoud is a propagandistic joke deeply offensive to Afghans. This joke (coupled with the Massoud "inaccuracy") is the reason that the Afghan Embassy is boycotting Charlie Wilson's War.
The joke is: "When a Tajik man wants to make love to a woman, his first choice is a Pashtun man."
Is Julia Robert's wig considered misinformation, as well?

adidas Trilogy Youth Bat 2014 (-10) 16 16
Not Worth the Money!!! My 6 year old son plays coach pitch, so it is pretty obvious that people are not throwing the heat at this bat (We all want the kids to hit). After game 3 the bat had two substantial dents in it. I wish we would have read the reviews of this bat prior to buying... I would not have gone through the hassle with this one! November 25, 2014
Worst bat ever purchased the very first practice my 7 year old son used it in batting practice. 10 hits (9 dings and dents) I threw it in the trash as we walked off the field. My mistake for allowing him to pick out his own bat! November 21, 2014
Beg to differ! It's great! My 3 boys 11, 10 and 8 got this bat about a year ago and it is still great! They've gotten a lot of good use out of it! Not sure what happened to the ones who said the bats bent or dented when first used, but there is a 1 year warranty -- they should have just returned them! We would recommend this and plan to get one for our younger grandson. November 4, 2014
Don't waste your money. Would not recommend. We were trying a new length and bat weight for my 10 y/o After a session in the batting cage, bat bent at the handle. Bat is junk October 19, 2014
Bent I bought this bat for my 8 year old son yesterday. His first time up at bat today, it bent. Can't be used anymore. I would not recommend this item. September 14, 2014
Bent Wish I would have checked online first. Bat was "warped" very early on in the season. Not sure when it happened but basically was a new bat. Does Adidas warranty under these situations? September 3, 2014
HORRIBLE DON'T BUY Used bat one day and the bat shaft had bent after a couple hits. DON'T BUY!!! August 25, 2014
Don't buy this bat My 8 yr old son dented the bat in the first 5 minutes of using it and he didn't even do a full swing. There was no way to rate with zero stars - one star is generous. March 14, 2014
Horrible Bat I made the mistake of not reading reviews on this bat prior to purchase. My son is 9 and after hitting about 20 balls with it not only was the bat dented it was also bent just above the handle. DO NOT PURCHASE THIS BAT! March 12, 2014
Cheap Granted, I purchased this bat to save some money while making sure that my son would actually stay with baseball. That being said, my son is 50 pounds wet, and with his first swing put a massive dent in the bat when hitting the ball. Inexpensive should not equal cheap, at least in this case, when considering baseball bats. I mean, do they think you're going to just be swinging in thin air? Very disappointed, and I will be returning the bat. March 11, 2014

Warm weather, a healthy lifestyle and the outdoors brought New York native Kevin Gilligan to Arizona in 1996.
Gilligan, who lives in Fountain Hills, started a personal training business and took full advantage of the East Valley's rocky topography when working with clients.
During one of those hikes the former police officer inhaled a fungus that would drastically alter his life.
"Three weeks later I was sniffly and I started getting upper body cramps. It got to the point where I couldn't put my feet on the floor," he says. "It was like having a charley horse in your chest."
Doctors initially diagnosed pneumonia and sent Gilligan home with antibiotics. When the symptoms got worse, Gilligan returned to the hospital. This time, tests revealed that he had contracted coccidioidomycosis, or valley fever.
Each year thousands of people like Gilligan move to Arizona for a healthier lifestyle. Millions more come for a visit. But newcomers may not realize that while they're out hiking or mountain biking, they may be exposing themselves to a slew of health problems, including valley fever, exacerbated allergies, heat-related illness, and harmful exposure to the desert sun, plant and animal life.
"People always have to learn this lesson the hard way," says Dr. John Whiteside, a practitioner of family medicine with Mayo Clinic Scottsdale.
One hundred people die each year from heat-related illnesses such as sunstroke or heat exhaustion, making it the biggest immediate threat to public health, says Will Humble, bureau chief for disease control with the Arizona Department of Health Services.
The next three months are critical. Traditionally, the number of cases begins to rise in April and peaks in June. Humble blames the low humidity during these months. Low humidity means that sweat, the body's natural coolant, is working effectively. People don't feel hot, so they're not hydrating adequately.
Men are more likely to suffer from a heat-related illness by a ratio of 3-to-1.
"Men are exposed more, and they don't drink the water they need," Humble says. "They're doing yardwork or playing golf, and they get dehydrated quickly."
Humbles suggests drinking 1 liter of water for every hour of outdoor activity, whether you're going for an easy walk or swimming.
One can always pick out the tourists hiking trails at Piestewa Peak or Camelback Mountain. They're usually the ones who are sunburned.
"A lot of people who who come here from other places don't realize how intense the sun is, and they get burned," says Sharon McKenna, Sun-Wise Program coordinator.
Arizona ranks second in the world and first in the nation for incidences of skin cancer. Only Australia surpasses Arizona.
McKenna, who was diagnosed with skin cancer in 2001, says about 80 percent of an individual's lifetime exposure occurs during childhood.
If you plan to go out in the sun, McKenna advises wearing a wide-brimmed hat, covering exposed skin (sometimes long-sleeve shirts can actually be cooler than tank tops or short sleeves), avoiding the maximum exposure window of 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. and wearing sunblock with SPF 15 or higher.
There was a time when the Valley was a haven for allergy sufferers. The opposite is true today, when one in every three Arizonans suffers from allergies.
Most people go through a period in which they feel like "they're having a holiday" from their allergies, Whiteside says. During that season or two, the body is becoming sensitized to the allergens in the air and develops an immune response.
Some people say their allergies come back with a vengeance.
Non-native species such as mulberry and olive trees are partly to blame, and the only respite most people have is during 115-degree weather, Whiteside says.
I've had lots of unhappy contact with plant life," says Whiteside, an avid mountain biker who moved to Arizona eight years ago.
The cholla, or teddy bear cactus, is friend to no one. The cactus looks fuzzy, but closer inspection reveals thousands of spines. Hikers and mountain bikers might try to brush it aside, but end up lodged with spines.
Encounters with snakes, scorpions and spiders are other risks people face along the trails. More than 8,000 adults are treated for bites each year in Maricopa County, according to Banner Health Systems' poison control center.
Most people infected with the disease never develop symptoms. People who are born or raised in Arizona will get valley fever as a child or adolescent, but the body usually walls it off.
"There's really nothing you can do," says Whiteside. "It's in our soil."
But valley fever can be a serious health problem for newcomers like Gilligan and visitors. About 3,000 cases are diagnosed each year. The symptoms are flulike and include aches, a fever and a body rash. The disease is treatable with antifungal medication, but some patients, like Judd Whitaker of Scottsdale, try surgery.
"The surgery is basically the cure," says Whitaker, who had an infected section of his lung removed eight weeks ago.
Gilligan turned to nutritional supplements to treat his illness and says he's almost back to normal. He says the benefits of living in Arizona outweigh all that he's gone through with the disease.
"Would I have moved to Arizona anyway?" Gilligan says. "Absolutely."

Join us for the 12th Annual Encinitas Wine & Food Festival
Saturday, June 6, 2015 from 5:00 to 8:00 pm
Hamilton Children's Garden: 230 Quail Gardens Drive, Encinitas
The 12th Annual Encinitas Rotary Wine Festival is being held on Saturday, June 6, 2015 from 5:00 to 8:00 PM in the Hamilton Children's Garden, the newest part of San Diego Botanic Garden located at 230 Quail Gardens Dr., Encinitas CA 92024. The Hamilton Children's Garden is a $4,000,000 addition to the garden with a multi-level tree house, a new interactive garden, surrounded by more than 15 exciting exhibits which encourage children young and old to discover and appreciate nature. Guests of our event will have an opportunity to stroll around the garden and the rest of this beautiful property sampling fine wines and beverages from around the world.
In addition, our local restaurants offer a taste sampling of their best dishes and desserts. We will have top musicians entertaining the crowd in this relaxed setting. Our Silent Auction and Raffle are some of the evenings other highlights. We are a "Green Waste" event and offer a prize for carbon footprint reduction through carpooling. With over 600 guests, we had less than 5 gallons of non recyclable trash! Our goal for 2014 is to have zero non-recyclables as well as give those that carpool an opportunity to win a great prize as a special thanks for reducing their carbon footprint for the event.
This outstanding event presented by the Encinitas Rotary Club, has grown from 400 attendees in 2005 to over 1,000 in 2014 with a sellout for each of the last 5 years. Our event is unique in that the majority of monies raised are returned to our community charities. Since its inception, the Encinitas Wine Festival has been able to distribute over $725,000 to those charities. Our goal this year is to raise $117,000 with 1,100 attendees. The net proceeds from the event will be divided between several worthy 501 (c) (3) charities. These charities fall into two categories: Those that focus on Children and those that meet a Community Need.

Buy Intel, Yahoo! and Alcoa; Sell Infosys
Yahoo! continues to be one of the most misunderstood companies on Wall Street. But the company understands itself and its goals. It appears to have a firm grasp of what is at stake in terms of its future. With the stock trading at $15.74, it is down by almost 15% from the average analyst target of $18.00. Though this also comes with a hold recommendation, I would consider buying Yahoo! at this level ahead of earnings to possibly capitalize on a quick spike upward.
Reason to Sell Infosys
One of last week's disappointment arrived at the hands of Infosys, which released earnings on Thursday and prompted analysts to ask, " will it survive?" For the quarter, though its revenue increased by almost 5%, the company reported earnings per share of 73 cents -- missing consensus estimates by a penny.
On the announcement, Needham & Company analysts reiterated their "hold" rating on the stock. The stock dropped as much as 14% after the report though it has since then rebounded slightly. I still see potential downside risk in the shares until the news completely wears off. I think the stock is yet expensive with a P/E of 13 and if you are a holder of the stock, you might consider selling at current levels with a possibility of entering back in at the $35 range -- saving an extra 10%.
Bottom Line
Earnings season can be both an exciting time as well as one that brings a lot of anxiety for companies as well as investors. It's called the reporting period for more than one reason as companies are essentially sharing their quarterly report cards -- where getting a passing or failing grade often depends on the expectations that were set.In this article, there was Alcoa passed where Infosys fell short. Yahoo! and Intel have yet to report and their track records suggest buying ahead of the report may be a smart thing to do. Let's hope we're right. In my next article, we're going to look at possible earnings plays in IBM (IBM), Qualcomm (QCOM) and Bank of America (BAC).

Hello, I am going to purchase a Mojo SL size M. I am 1'72 cm tall (or 56.5), and 82 cm (or 32-33") insean. While I am waiting for it, I would like to purchase other components. The thing is that I am not sure about the seatpost: straight or with a edge misalignment?
I had another bike, but it was size S, so I can't count on it. Anybody with Mojo in size M and similar measures?
Thank you.

Self-explanatory, as is the discussion that follows. But we all feel real bad for the young man and god knows his family - the youth died just minutes from where I live - and the guy whose helmet hit his, his young and adult life will forever change.
(I'm not a Football man but I've been told by more than one that the NFL (a non-profit organization by the way) has available safer helmets, "soft"-helmets that can stop many concussions but they settled a suit by former players with head injuries for multi-millions to keep the topic out of the press. They WANT the shiny hard helmets for the "look" - injuries be damned - least that's the word I was given. With this as role model if true, any wonder that teen-agers value the same helmets, the Hard ones, and occasionally butting heads with them?)

How Firm Thy Friendship
Great list. While the VY Rose Bowl was a GREAT game, I've always wondered how some list it above the OSU/Miami David vs Goliath, double overtime with a bit of controversy and as NFL.com said, that game had a little bit of everything.
Of those 10 games.
scUM 0-2
Bucks 2-0
It's a little odd that a FCS school made the top 10 games.......
I believe the SEC players put their pants on one leg at a time like we do.
I just watched that for 20 minutes straight lol. Favorite Buckeye memory
Jim Lachey has the greatest homer call of all time on that play. Poor Paul Keels is trying to keep it together and Lachey is going beast mode.
I still re-watch that game every year before the season starts to get myself ready for another year of Buckeye glory.
On a side note, I'm grateful I didn't have to wait a lifetime to see them win a championship - I was 21 at the time, but for my dad having to live through the rough patches in the 80s and 90s I think it was more of a relief than anything else.
"Because we couldn't go for three"
That was a GREAT list. Oregon vs. Oklahoma should have been substituted for Rutgers-Louisville IMO.

Gov. David Paterson was greeted at the Empire State Pride Agenda's LGBT lobbying day with a standing ovation, cheers applause, and chants of "David, David David."
Gov. David Paterson was greeted at the Empire State Pride Agenda's LGBT lobbying day with a standing ovation, cheers applause, and chants of "David, David David."
At this writing, your lone sentence seems to be lacking a few details:
"Gov. David Paterson was greeted with a standing ovation, cheers applause, and a chat of 'David, David David.'"
Was this when he returned home, after work yesterday?
The name of the organization where Dave was applauded:
"The 28% of the Public Who Somehow Think Paterson is Doing a Good Job."
was it a meeting of Satanists?…cuz he iz doing a great job practicing & applying their beliefs….integrity & ethics in NYS Government appears way on the bottom of his list of priorities
thanx Irene for submitting such an "open" Blog post…gives us all a chance to vent….:)
Although I hate the corrupt state of this state, for some odd reason, I like Governor Paterson so far. That may change. I would like him a lot more and so would everyone else if he made these cuts at the top. No layoffs will occur at OSC. . the question is why? There are at least 20 people in that agency who are paid a lot of money for doing nothing, in my opinion. Overtime has been eliminated, but no job losses are scheduled to occur in that agency. Cut some of the political appointments in that agency, including the last minute let's make a deal republican appointments made in Oct, Nov., and December 2006 when Pataki was on his way out and all of their family members they brought in. Run a check on the state payroll database for OSC, State Comptroller, and almost everyone there has a relative working there as well. In some cases entire families are working there, mother, father, daughter, and uncle. If you want names, I'll be happy to provide them.
#3 – Satanists? No – tax-paying, wage earning, community volunteering and, in many cases, religious gay and lesbian New Yorkers.
I guess we're pretty clear on where you stand on the issue, myohmy. Anyone who doesn't follow your perception of your God's rules is a Satanist.
Nice. Easier than thinking!
Isn't it interesting how people attack those who aren't afraid to voice their religious beliefs. I encourage all to read Romans 1:27 to see one place where religious leaders and followers are getting their opinion. The governor's comment of where were we when gays and lesbians were getting beaten was ridiculous. Does allowing them to marry protect them from being beaten? Do those of us who's faith says gay marriages are a sin make us gay bashers? Who's getting attacked here?
I encourage all to keep reading through Romans 2:1 to see one place where many other religious leader come to a different opinion.
Same-gender couples, who enter into a legalized "marriage", will discover; to their chagrin, dismay and financial detriment; this legislation, if passed, will benefit them to a much lesser extent than the attorneys they will have to hire to represent them in legalized "divorce" proceedings.
I have wondered for a long time: Why are there not any lawyers who specialize in "pre-nuptial" agreements? As an alternative to the standard marriage contract imposed by N.Y.S. law. On all who legally marry without one. When they may choose to seek a legal "divorce". A legal "divorce" is not required for couples not legally married.
"Pre-nuptial" agreements benefit attorneys as well. It makes couples considering a legal "marriage" to agree, in advance of that same legal "marriage", to the terms of their future "divorce".
Making me wonder: "Where is the love?".
My support for Paterson is sinking, but, I give him credit for supporting as Gov a cause he fought for as a member of the Senate.
#5 Kingstonian…OUCH!!!…I'm sorry u feel that way….God Bless You…:)
PastorSmitty: I am well aware of what Romans 2:1 says, but I don't see the relevance to the marriage issue. Do you believe that "Judge not lest you be judged" means that it is unChristian to say that any law or proposed law is wrong if someone takes offense at your position and feels "judged" by it? Would you feel the same way about supporting an environmental law proposal that "judges" polluters? What about supporting a proposed law against human trafficking — is that "judgment" against the traffickers, and therefore off limits?
I would respectfully refer you (and others who profess Christianity but support same-sex "marriage") to Isaiah 5:20 and I Corinthians 13:6.
"Marriage" Defined in STATE LAW as a Civil Contract.
Keep your damned religion out of my Government.
"civil" contracts are also broken

For several years now, prognosticators have insisted that cloud computing would take over the enterprise. And, for several years, we've seen growing adoption of cloud computing technologies, but nothing to indicate massive acceptance.
A recent study from Brocade, however, suggests that that phenomenon is about to change. Here are some of the most interesting statistics to come from the CIO survey, which included 100 CIOs from around the world:
- A third of CIOs report that they're already implementing cloud computing. Interestingly enough, this adoption of cloud technology has rarely come as a result of a push from IT. It's been demand from business units, rather than a move from the center outward.
- Half of CIOs see the cloud as a potential way to improve efficiency. They agreed that it took less time to implement a cloud solution than it would to implement new IT infrastructure or deal with current infrastructure issues. This was particularly pronounced in the areas of storage and email.
This tells us something we've known for a long time: organizations are adopting cloud computing technologies, whether the CIO is on board or not. Some CIOs might push back against unauthorized uses of cloud technologies like Dropbox or Google Drive in the Enterprise, but this doesn't seem to help anyone.
Today's CIO knows that the cloud is coming, whether or not they want it to do so. The task ahead of them, then, is to leverage all of that interest in the cloud and figure out the best ways for it to be used in their organization.
The CIO's shifting role
What does this mean for the CIO? It means a couple of things. It means:
- CIOs have the choice to embrace cloud technologies or place barriers to its use.
- Those CIOs who place barriers are likely, eventually, to encounter a massive pushback. Sometimes that pushback will come from the corner office, and that's not good for anyone.
- A good CIO has to understand technology that's still emerging and realistically look at its value for the organization.
One thing is certain: CIOs aren't going to be able to ignore the cloud for much longer. They're going to have to embrace it if they have any hope of maintaining IT standards.

Fifteen Children Found Living in Trailer
Fifteen children, ranging from just an infant to 13-year-old, are in state custody after deputies say they were living in dangerous conditions in a small trailer.
The seven adults living there have been charged by the Spartanburg County Sheriff's Office with Unlawful Neglect of a Child--Aaron Eugene Dodson, Brianna Hope Henderson, David Russell Hayes, Karen Lynn Dunbar, Andy Lee Dunbar, Cindy Ann Cox and Cherie Rose Toney. Deputies say the relationship between all seven adults is unclear, though they pointed out one of the men has a current and former girlfriend there, and they are parents of 11 of the 15 children.
Deputies say at least 10 dogs and 4 cats were also living in the home at the end of Hunter Road near Woodruff in Spartanburg County.
Neighbors like Sherri James say they had no idea. "No, I had no clue that was going on," James said. "You never see any children out that way, coming down this road, and to have that many children in one area and not see them is very strange."
The investigation began when school officials notified deputies after a teacher made a startling and graphic discovery.
"One of the things the lead investigator told me this morning is that a teacher was trying to help one of the children in the bathroom, and a cockroach crawled out of the child's underwear," Lt. Kevin Bobo said.
Warrants say deputies found children playing in an above-ground pool with water colored green they say from the growth of algae and lack of chemicals.
Inside the house, deputies found urine and animal feces throughout the trailer, medications scattered around and unsecured guns within the reach of children.
"[The] situation could have been a whole lot worse, especially if one of the young children got a hold of the firearm," Lt. Bobo said.
By law, there will be a family court hearing within 72 hours. There, a judge will decide whether there was probably cause to remove the children.

The situation I was in was one of dire straits due to the complete lack of consideration and product backing by Kia motors, one crank shaft pulley bolt snaps and the 2004 Sorrento was useless with just 69000 miles on it, so much for the 10 year, 100000 mile warranty. Question is how many times has this occur and is it a engineering error?

2004 Kia Sorento Question: Crank shaft pulley bolt broke how may has this happened to?
Answer #1Visitor, January 09, 2011, 13:36
Crankshaft bolt just broke yesterday and the car has 77,00 miles on it. Sent to the dealer and he acts like this is something new he has not heard of. I told him it is all over the Net. He said it would not be part of the 100,000 warranty and that I will have to pay for repairs. Has anyone had this issue fixed by dealer after the fact and the dealer paid for repairs?
ReplyVisitor, January 09, 2011, 16:43
Traded the Sorento in as is lost $4000 but no one would guarantee the work, Kia said it was a none covered part. I will never but another from thing from them and tell my story OFTEN to anyone who is going to buy a car, SUV or anything else.

Answer #3Visitor, March 23, 2011, 18:53
This was the subject of a recall. I had mine replaced free at a dealer. Don't have the recall # handy and don't now if they cover any damage but you would have a strong argument based on the recall facts.
Answer #4Visitor, August 15, 2011, 22:02
ALOT !! KIA will usually NOT cover it because they replaced the faulty bolt as a recall in 07. I've heard of countless owners where the bolt has broken three times. Mine broke at 79k but I discovered that the bolt was gold and not silver as the replacement bolt should be. I was able to get the dealer to cover it since they claimed they had done the recall years ago. But unfortunately they did such a horrible job on my car that it is ruined and broke down the next day. I ended up paying for the repairs. Some people have gotten it covered but I guess they were lucky or the dealer covered it under the crankshaft and not the bolt.

Love app

I hope it works bcuz its almost hurricane season so I hope it will be trusted for hurricane warning so I hope it works
(69 stars)
This is the best weather app out there! Especially for boaters with the marine advisory overlay!! Awesome... Only bug: app does not pay attention to screen rotation being disabled. If you disable orientation to read phone while laying on your side in the AM, the NBC10 weather app ignores the setting and you are forced to read it sideways.
(69 stars)
It changes location when traveling which is great and so many more options. I looked for a hour at other whether apps to change to but reading all of the reviews made me stay with this one. This app has everything that other weather apps don't have. I've been using this one for a year and a half. Try it u won't be disappointed. Good luck! (Galaxy 4 ).

I found a partial solution to the original problem. Today I restored the system back to IE 10. I hooked up a mouse to the laptop and found that I could click in a search box and, while continuing to holdown the button, I could drag the cursor into the drop down menu to make a selection. Following up with that on the touchpad, I found that using the right click button on the touchpad enabled the drop down menu and I could make a selection with the touchpad cursor. That is my wifes computer and I'm not usually allowed to touch it so I think she accidentally hit a key or button combination which changed what clicking on the touchpad does. Unfortunately, the software in Control Panel doesn't provide for changing this. I need to look into it further.

My wife only goes to three websites on that system. I had tried my work around on two of them. I told her I was going to show her how it works. She wanted to go to the website I hadn't tried. Sure enough, it didn't work. I found that the only way I could get the drop down menu to come up was to right click in an area near the search/selection box and select Encoding and then click on Unicode. I have Auto Select on as well and the Unicode button is highlighted but I have to click on it. Every website is different. Java is also uninstalled.
Anyone have any more ideas.
|My System Specs
|26 Oct 2013
Try this.
Open IE> Press F12> When the Developer tools open, on the top menu Browser mode:> Set to Internet explorer 9
Try again, if no help open developer tool again> Top menu Document mode:> Set to Internet explorer 9 standards
See if either helps.

The only way it works is to set it to IE 8 standards. I can leave the browser mode as ie 10. The problem is, I don't how to save the settings. As soon as I leave the page where I was testing, the settings default back. The other issue is why is it doing this?
I'm resetting the system to factory condition right now.

If you open links in the same window and not in a new tab the document mode should stick.

Thanks to both of you for your help.
It's one of those things that just popped up out of the blue with no indication of the cause. Makes troubleshooting tough.
I ended up reformatting and setting the system back to factory condition.
After 120 updates (so far), installation of Java, toolbars, etc., it's working as it should in IE 9. I have one more tool bar to install. If that doesn't cause any problems, I'd say the problem is solved.

Do you NEED Java? If you don't have a particular use for it, try without it. I have had no need for it. It is the #1 attack vector for malicious items these days. A Guy

Norma Jean Elder, 79, of Benton peacefully went to be with her Lord on  Thursday, Feb. 27, 2014 with her loving family at her side. She was born April 11, 1934, in Booneville, to the late Melvin and Gladys Wilkins Boggs.
Mrs. Elder was a homemaker and a very faithful Christian.
In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Scott Howard Elder Sr.; one brother, Bufford Boggs; two sisters, Thetia Pierce and Eva Carolyn Boggs; and her first husband, Carol W. Baker.
Marguerite (Greet) House Haynes Layton, 92, of Malvern, started her Heavenly family reunion on Feb. 27, 2014. She was born in Hot Spring County, on Jan, 18, 1922 to Tom House and Judy Caroline Ross. She attended Glen Rose High School, where she played on the varsity basketball team.Â
Mrs. Layton was primarily a housewife and mother and enjoyed fishing and crocheting. Although she didn't like to cook, she had a special knack for creating "good" meals out of nothing, one of which was our favorite lunch, chocolate syrup and saltine crackers.
