In recent years line-of-business applications including accounting, human resources, manufacturing, sales and customer service have appeared in the cloud. Cloud -based software as a service (SaaS) has replaced on-premises applications that were previously part of ERP and CRM environments. They have helped companies become more efficient but have also introduced interoperability challenges between business processes. Their advantage is that cloud software can be rented, configured and used within a day or week. The disadvantage is that they don't always connect with one another seamlessly, as they used to and when managed by a third party there is limited connectivity to integrate them.
Smooth interoperation is critical for business processes that use ERP. The hybrid computing approach to ERP was assessed by my colleague Robert Kugel, who identified the challenges in these early approaches to ERP in the cloud. As on-premises ERP, these applications were fully connected and integrated with process and data integration wired together through additional technologies. This configurability of ERP has been a large challenge and has led to failed implementations, as Robert noted. Understanding the complexities of ERP today is key to coming up with a solution.
One of the most fundamental business processes in organizations is tracking an order to fulfillment. That needs to be connected without manual intervention for transactional efficiency and to ensure data, analytics and planning are available. In fact our next generation of finance analytics benchmark research finds that ERP is the second-most important source of data being analyzed, after spreadsheets, and is the first-ranked source in almost one-third (32%) of organizations. In the transition to cloud computing this has become more complex. Applications that support the order-to-fulfillment process, for example, are increasingly being used individually in cloud computing, and many are being mingled with on-premises applications that require integration and automation to avoid manual intervention.
To start, orders are created by sales. Sales opportunities are created and closed with products and services purchased by contract or electronically. These must be placed in an order management system through which the record can be used by a multitude of systems and processes. Purchasing and fulfillment details are moved into an invoice as part of a billing application, then entered into accounting and accounts receivable where it is managed to payment. Finance takes orders and consolidates them into reports, typically in a financial performance management system. The order is then provided to manufacturing or fulfillment applications which build and deliver products, then fulfilled through warehouse and distribution management. The customer name and order number is also placed into an application that handles support calls or deploys services.
This is the reality of business today. Many departments and individuals, with different applications, are needed to support orders, fulfillment and service. If these applications are not connected organizations have to perform manual intervention, re-enter data, or copy and paste, which not only wastes time and resources but can introduce errors. Half (56%) of organizations do the integration through spreadsheets or exporting data, with custom coding being second-most popular (for 39%), according to our business data in the cloud research. (I will leave HR applications and the supporting people component out of this process though they play a critical role as an enterprise resource to support the order-to-fulfillment process and are part of many ERP deployments.) In addition performing any level of business planning is not simple as data is needed to determine past performance and plan for the future.
There is no simple way to make all this efficient. It has historically been managed by ERP, usually through a single vendor's application suite. Now businesses want it done in the cloud, either on-premises or through other cloud applications. Proper attention must be paid to the needs and competencies of the departments and business processes involved. Thus migration and transition to ERP are not simple, nor is building an application architecture that supports process and data efficiently. Assessment and planning are necessary to ensure that risks are addressed. Switching to a new ERP system in the cloud will still require an application architecture to maintain proper operations across departments and existing applications, whether they are on-premises, in a private cloud, in the public cloud or in a hybrid combination. This integration among sales force automation, customer service and other systems is outside the scope of most cloud ERP deployments who have not provided the most robust integration points for the applications and data.
Robert Kugel writes that ERP must take a giant leap in order to operate in the cloud. I agree. Our firm often gets requests for assistance in finding the right approach to ERP and business process. While midsize companies find ERP in the cloud increasingly attractive, there are significant challenges to adapting and integrating such applications as part of business processes, which many customers overlook in their desire for a cloud-based solution. The majority of cloud ERP vendors have not provided integration and workflow of information from their applications to others in an open and seamless manner, complicating deployments and adding unexpected costs for customers.
ERP suppliers moving from on-premises to cloud computing have acknowledged the complexities. Many of the legacy ERP vendors have struggled to enable application interoperability and the differing management requirements of IT and business. This struggle has resulted in a lack of confidence by organizations wishing to migrate to ERP in the cloud and makes them wonder whether to look at alternative approaches with individual applications using integration across them and data to support business processes. Automation is another major concern. The lack of it across business processes has impeded finance groups in closing the books efficiently; our research on the fast, clean close shows many organizations losing four or more days.
In the meantime technological advances in integration technologies that operate in the cloud computing environment can interconnect with on-premises systems. The ability to simultaneously distribute transactions and data across systems makes the ability to architect business processes and workflows a reality. For some organizations the use of business process management and other integration technology approaches are being adopted. The new technologies are able to blend into many applications, so that users do not know they are working on applications from different vendors, nor do they need to know. These advances enable application architecture to interoperate and automate the flow of data from on-premises and cloud computing environments, providing new opportunities to interoperate from ERP or other applications. Many organizations are doing this today, and more than one-third of companies are planning or need to move data from cloud to cloud, cloud to on-premises or on-premises to cloud, data according our business data in the cloud research.
No matter whether a company is in manufacturing or services, they must address the integration complexities to gain efficiency and support growth without adding more resources. While many new ERP providers in the cloud are taking simpler approaches from the applications interface to how it processes transactions, most have not learned the importance of integration to other systems and the need for accessing and integrating data for transactions and analytics. Having consistency of data across applications and systems is a major obstacle in more than one-fifth (21%) of organizations and a minor obstacle in two-fifths (43%), and they find similar difficulties in the complexities of accessing data, according to our business data in the cloud research. In addition they lack effective planning (which of course is the P in ERP), and reporting is less than sufficient and often must be complemented by third-party tools.
All this introduces yet more complexity for business and IT in determining how they can move forward with ERP in the cloud, adapting existing and new applications to interoperate. The outlook for ERP in the cloud is thus uncertain. If these vendors do not adapt to the reality of what their customers want (as opposed to what they want their customers to do), it will remain cloudy. Responding to pressure to take an open approach that is easy to integrate, however, ERP providers could see a sunny forecast.

At the Informatica World 2014 conference, the company known for its data integration software unveiled the Intelligent Data Platform. In the last three years Informatica has expanded beyond data integration and now has a broad software portfolio that facilitates information management within the enterprise and through cloud computing. The Intelligent Data Platform forms a framework for its portfolio. This expression of broad potential is important for Informatica, which has been slow to position its products as capable of more than data integration. A large part of the value it provides lies in what its products can do to help organizations strengthen their enterprise architectures for managing applications and data. We see Informatica's sweet spot in facilitating efficient use of data for business and IT purposes; we call this information optimization.
Informatica's Intelligent Data Platform is built in three layers. The bottom layer is Informatica Vibe, the virtual data machine that I covered at its launch last year. Informatica Vibe won our Ventana Research 2013 Technology Innovation Award for information optimization. It virtualizes information management technology to operate on any platform whether on-premises or in any form of cloud computing.
Above Informatica Vibe in the platform is a data infrastructure layer, which contains all the technologies that act upon data, from integration through archiving, masking, mastering, quality assurance, security, streaming and other tasks. At the core of this second layer is Informatica PowerCenter, which provides data integration and other capabilities central to processing of data into information. PowerCenter provides parsing, profiling, joining and filtering but also is integral for data services through Informatica's Data Integration Hub that operates in a publish-and-subscribe model. The latest PowerCenter release, version 9.6, focuses on providing agility in development and provides a series of packaged editions that provide certain levels of functionality; users choose among them to fit their requirements. This developer support includes advances in test data management and data masking for enterprise-class needs. There are editions for Informatica Data Quality, too. The latest release of Informatica MDM, 9.7, improves the user experience for data stewards along with enhanced performance and governance. Not much was mentioned at the conference about Informatica's Product Information Management (PIM) offering that our most recent Value Index vendor and product assessment rated Hot.
The third layer is data intelligence. Here Informatica has added capabilities to organize, infer and recommend action from data and to provision and map data to business needs. In addition Informatica's Business Glossary and Metadata Manager help establish consistent definitions and use of data for operational or analytical tasks. Informatica RulePoint, a product that also was not mentioned much at the conference, processes events through workflow in a continuous rule based manner; depending on how processing occurs, its function is to support complex event processing or event streaming.
On top of the Intelligent Data Platform, Informatica has added a couple of new innovations. Project Springbok, which is not yet released, is a tool for preparation of data for analytics and operations through its Innovation division. This new product will use Informatica's expertise in providing access to and integration of data sources, which according to our information optimization benchmark research is the top analyst requirement in 39 percent of organizations. Despite data warehouse efforts, analysts and business users still have to access many data sources. Simplifying information is critical for nearly all organizations that have more than 16 data sources. Demonstrations showed that Springbok can dynamically create and automate the transformations that run in PowerCenter. It also offers access to a master reference to ensure that data is processed in a consistent manner. IT professionals gain visibility into what business units are doing to show how they can help in provisioning data. Even in beta release Springbok has significant potential to address the range of data issues analysts face and reduce the time they spend on data-related tasks. Our research has shown for several years that this data challenge presses organizations to diversify the tools they use, and software vendors in this market have responded. Informatica will have to compete with more than a dozen others and demonstrate its superiority for integration. Our research finds that the lines of business and IT now share responsibility for information availability in 42 percent of organizations. Informatica will have to demonstrate its value to line of business analysts who are evaluating a new generation of tools for data and analytics.
A second innovation is a new data security product called Secure@Source, also being developed in the Innovation unit, is designed to protect data assets where they are stored and processed. This product moves Informatica into the information security market segment. Secure@Source helps users discover, detect, assess and protect data assets in their persistent locations and during consumption by applications or Internet services. The question is whether Informatica can convince current customers to examine it or will have to approach information security professionals who are not users of Informatica. Security of data is among the top five required data activities according to our research and a key part of the manageability requirements that organizations find important in considering products. Informatica has an opportunity to insert itself into the dialogue in this area if it properly presents the new product to IT and business people alike.
In big data Informatica has made steady progress, but to reach its potential in this segment will require more investments in the mixed big data environments, not just Hadoop. As our research has shown for three years, customers want big data to distribute processing and integration of data across sources. Our recent research on big data analytics finds that three out of four (76%) define big data analytics as being about accessing and analyzing all sources of data. This poses a challenge for data integration, and our new research on big data integration finds that most have a long way to go in accessibility and mastering of data. Informatica begins to address this and has an opportunity in helping develop a new generation of data architecture.
In cloud computing, the company has consolidated its efforts to ensure that the cloud is part of its core technology. It released new versions for its cloud-based integration, quality, master and real-time data management products; these begin to address the challenge of process and application integration, which are important considerations for businesses in determining whether integrate or replace point cloud solutions to improve efficiency of tasks and business processes. Informatica has continued to focus on integrating mostly with the large cloud computing providers and has yet to invest in streamlining processes in particular lines of business. This has left openings for other cloud integration providers to compete, making it harder than expected for Informatica to dominate in this segment. The next step here is up to Informatica.
I believe that one of the highest potential opportunities for Informatica is in the application architectures of organizations whose business processes have been distributed through a collection of cloud-based applications that lack interconnectivity and integration. For example, finance departments often have software from different providers for budgeting and planning, consolidation and reporting, accounting and payroll management. When these applications are spread across the cloud, connecting them is a real challenge, let alone trying to get information from sales force automation and customer service applications. The implications of this are shown in our finance analytics research : Data-related tasks consume the most time and impede the efficiency of financial processes as they do in all other line of business areas that we have researched. Similar situations exist in customer-related areas (marketing, sales and customer service) and employee management processes (recruiting, onboarding, performance, compensation and learning). Informatica has made progress with Informatica Cloud Extend for interconnecting tasks across applications, which can help streamline processes. While perhaps not obvious to data integration specialists, this level of process automation and integration is essential to the future of cloud computing. Informatica also announced it will offer master data management in the cloud; this should help it not just to place a data hub in the cloud but to help companies interoperate separate cloud applications more efficiently.
Overall the Informatica Intelligent Data Platform is a good reference model for tasks related to turning data into information assets. But it could be much distinct in how its automation accelerates the processing of data faster and helps specific roles work faster and smarter. This platform does not provide a context for enterprise architectures that are stretched between on-premises and various cloud deployments. Organizations will have to determine whether Informatica's approach fits their future data and architectural needs. As Informatica pushes its platform approach, it has to ensure it is seen as a leader in big data integration, helping business analysts with data, supporting a larger number of application sources and connecting cloud computing through unifying business applications. This won't be easy to accomplish as Informatica has not been as progressive in the broader approach to big data and use across operations and analytics.
Informatica has been growing substantially and is getting close to US$1 billion in annual software revenue. We have recognized its success through rating it a Hot vendor in our Data Integration Value Index and naming one of its customers, the CIO of UMass Memorial Health Care, the Chief Information Officer in our 2013 Leadership Awards. Informatica has been continuing substantial investment in R&D. Its acquisitions of data-related software companies have helped it grow, and Informatica has invested to integrate the products with PowerCenter. With almost half (49%) of organizations planning to change their information availability processes, the opportunity for Informatica is significant; its challenge is to gain the confidence and recognition by business customers, who now play a larger role in the selection and purchasing of software. This will require Informatica to speak their language of business and not just technology but the business processes that they are held accountable. Informatica is a major player in information management; now it must become as significant a choice for streamlining business processes and use of applications and data across the enterprise and cloud computing to enable information optimization.

Kids & allowances
McClatchy-Tribune News Service
Dear Mr. Dad: In today's tough economy, I think it's important to teach kids about the importance of saving money. The problem is that my husband and I don't agree on how to do that. I think we should give the kids (10 and 13) an allowance, but he's taking a harder line and says it's important for them to earn their money. What's your opinion?
A: Before I jump in and start taking sides, you're both absolutely right about one thing: People who develop good financial management habits as kids (including learning to become regular savers), are more likely to bring those habits with them into adulthood. And knowing how to manage one's money - especially in uncertain times - is incredibly important. The big question, though, is how people get their money. Here's where I agree with your husband. In my view, when you work hard for your money, you're going to be careful how you spend it. When cash just shows up, it's a lot easier to fritter away.
I'm sure you've experienced this in action. Have you ever found $20 in the pocket of a jacket you haven't worn for months or years, collected on a sports bet, or won a few bucks on a lottery scratcher ticket? If you're like most of us, your first reaction is to go out and spend your unexpected windfall, not put it in a savings account. (Unfortunately, too many people do the same thing with tax refunds. The money, of course, is theirs - they've just loaned it, interest-free, to Uncle Sam. But because they've managed to get along without it for a year, it feels like a gift.)
The same is true with kids and allowance. When children get money simply for being alive and don't do anything to earn it, they're going to go out and spend it. Oh, and it gets worse from there. The bigger the allowance, the less likely the kids are to save any of it. In fact, a tiny increase - just 1 percent of the amount of the allowance -reduces by 22 percent the chance that a child will save, according to Sarah Brown and Karl Taylor, researchers at Sheffield University in England. On the other hand, Brown and Taylor found that while kids who earned their money still spent some of it, they were also a lot more likely to save.
Okay, now on to the practical end of things. How are your kids going to earn their money? Child labor laws and school truant officers will keep them from getting full-time jobs, but they still have plenty of options, which fall into two broad categories: outside and inside. Outside jobs could be things like watering neighbors' plants or washing their cars, dog or cat sitting, babysitting, paper routes, and even old standbys like selling lemonade and brownies. Inside jobs could include things like helping you install insulation in your attic, organizing your files, and maybe even teaching you how to make better use of your smartphone or tablet (some of these inside jobs could become outside ones if they do them for other people).
It's very important to make a clear distinction between inside jobs and chores. Chores are tasks that your children should do simply because they're part of a family, things like cleaning their rooms, setting and clearing the table, sorting laundry, walking the family dog, vacuuming the carpets, taking out the garbage, and so on. And because everyone in the family has an obligation to keep things running smoothly, chores aren't paid.

From what I understand it cannot be done. The only way I can think of doing it is setting the image file type to open in a particular program, which you define, and then print through that.
Hi all,
Well i have been asked to find out if this can be done,
Basically you know when you want to print a picture and the "photo printing wizard" pops up, i need to stop it from doing that.
I have been looking around google but not had much look, wondered if anyone had any idea.
I noticed on some forums they were asking for Reg Edits, So dont know if thats the way to go.. if so which one is it
Thanks in advance
From what I understand it cannot be done. The only way I can think of doing it is setting the image file type to open in a particular program, which you define, and then print through that.
first google check suggests:
To Disable: Start - Run - regsvr32 /u shimgvw.dll
To Re-Enable: Start - Run - regsvr32 shimgvw.dll
Not tried it myself.
Yh thanks steve, i found that. tried it did not seem to work going to try it again at work tomorrow... but the command looks the same.
Dont see why it dont work.. but as Edu-IT states... if it does work then the button dont work.
I think my answer is no but we see what people say
Hmm... this may be of some use but I have my doubts..
It seems the "print" command is controlled by this registry key:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SystemFileAssociations\image\she ll\print\command
with value:
rundll32.exe %SystemRoot%\System32\shimgvw.dll,ImageView_Fullsc reen %1
Would there be a way to run a different command line to print using something completely different do you think?
Ah.. just found this... it seems it "should" be possible

Thanks Contink, I will give that a try tomorrow.
No worries...
Also found this nugget too...
Re: Photo Printing Wizard
That's about as far as it seems to go... Finding anything that will accept command line instructions to print has proven rather tricky to say the least.

The market instantly fell in love with the new sneaker, which is a perfect balance between basketball performance and lifestyle appeal. As such it is not a big surprise, in that we see new colorways of the Air Jordan Future almost weekly. Today we take a look at a new gym red version of the high top sneaker. Coming with a matching translucent outer sole and crisp white midsole, the new version of the sneaker will release in limited numbers on July 2 at Nike.com.

iPhone User Guide for iOS 6 now available as an eBook
Always nice to see something free from Apple, and the timing couldn't be better. The iBooks version of the iPhone User Guide for iOS 6 is available on the iBookstore.
Apple isn't much on paper manuals these days; most Apple products come with a thin little guide, so many users get their tips from websites like TUAW and others.
This Apple e-book is quite complete, with chapters explaining all the new features in iOS 6. I found the chapter on Siri and changes in the camera app most helpful. The book is illustrated, and every bit as good as something you'd buy online or at a book store.
This is a good idea, but it's certainly not being trumpeted by Apple; you just kind of have to know it's there. That's what we're here for, so get over to the iTunes and download it. Apple is also offering free user guides for the iPhone, the iPad, and iOS 5.1 if you didn't upgrade.
There's a few screen grabs in the gallery. The book can only be viewed on an iOS device using the iBooks app.

Fat32Formatter 1.1
Suitable for both beginners and experts
Although it's supposed to do such an important job, that of formatting disc drives, the application doesn't also include a help file to guide users and make sure they're on the safe side at all times.
Instead, the program offers an intuitive interface that makes everything pretty easy to use, both for beginners and more experienced computer users. It allows you to select the physical drive you wish to format, showing a simple graph with the available partitions and their total size.
Manage several settings before the start
There are three options available in the main window, namely "Update Info", "Delete partition" and "Initialize drive", each with pretty self-intuitive names.
As for the formatting process, Fat32Formatter provides you with the option to input the volume label, but also to pick the size and to choose whether to perform a quick format or not. The rest of the job is completed once you press the "Start" button and Fat32Formatter takes care of everything else.
Good but far from being a pro
Fat32Formatter worked flawlessly during our tests and although it needs a moderate amount of resources, it's recommended to avoid using the computer while the application performs a disk format. Other than that, it's pretty clear that it remains a handy software solution, even if it's obvious that it still needs some improvements in multiple key areas.
In conclusion
Taking everything into consideration, we can say that Fat32Formetter is a handy application that gets the job done well. It may not be the best of its kind, bringing nothing new on the block, but it lets you quickly accommodate with its features which makes it worth at least a try.

I know it's not a fitness forum but because it has biological background.I want to get big by increasing my muscle cell not by growing muscle (hypertrophy), I have not received a descent answer,through which exercises reps and sets can I get muscle growth with increasing the muscle cells ?

closed as off-topic by biogirl, leonardo, Chris, jonsca, WYSIWYG Apr 21 at 10:44
This question appears to be off-topic. The users who voted to close gave this specific reason:
There has been limited research into the possible role of hyperplasia on human skeletal muscle growth in response to exercise. For two - rather old - reviews on the topic, see Antonio & Gonyea (1) and Reggiani & te Kronnie (2). Hypertrophy is the major response to exercise in humans (3, cited in 4). Although it is possible that hyperplasia plays some role in muscle growth after exercise, there does not seem to be enough information available to give specific exercise recommendations that would increase the role of hyperplasia, if it is even possible.

Sea Life Arizona is about as close as you can get in the Valley to life under the deep blue sea.
Standing amid its shadowy, otherworldly displays, watching colorful sea creatures swim gracefully overhead, it's easy to become acutely aware of both the wonder of the oceans and the damage being done by the largest oil spill in history — the BP disaster in the Gulf of Mexico.
"We have had guests ask questions. They are mostly interested to know if there is a way they can help through Sea Life — if we were collecting money, sending volunteers, et cetera," says Kelly Schwartz, spokeswoman for the aquarium.
The facility already works with the Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society to stop the illegal killing of whales.
"However, once the oil spill took place," says Schwartz, "it seemed natural that Sea Life would look for a way to have a positive impact."
To that end, the aquarium will host a drive for nylon pantyhose beginning Saturday.
Pantyhose, you say?
The stretchy ladies legwear, it turns out, is an indispensable tool for grassroots cleanup efforts in the Gulf. Environmental nonprofit Matter of Trust uses them to create oil-absorbent booms out of another seemingly odd but common material: human hair.
The group also uses animal fur and fleece.
"Simply put, we shampoo because hair collects oil. It soaks up skin oils, grabs oil from the pollution in the air, and it can soak up petroleum in oil spills." says Lisa Craig Gautier, Matter of Trust's president.
And unlike oil-based synthetic booms, she says, those made of natural fibers "are recycled materials. The natural fibers are renewable and abundant, and you don't have to drill for them."
Hundreds of thousands of pounds of hair and fur has been donated already, courtesy of salons, barber shops, pet groomers, and sheep and alpaca farmers across the nation. More than 25 East Valley businesses have been part of the effort.
"We have filled up 19 warehouses and have made over 25 miles of boom, which is about one-tenth of the mass of fiber we've received. Over 100,000 donations have come in, in bags, boxes, envelopes, truck loads," says Gautier.
Now running out of space to store hair, the charity is in need of nylons to contain it all and get it out on the water. Once stuffed, pantyhose are uniquely effective in letting oil in and letting water out.
Matter of Trust's booms have been deployed in waters off Alabama and Florida, and will soon be used near Grand Isle, La.
Gautier says BP's recent containment of the leaking oil well won't diminish her group's need for materials.
"Oil will wash up with currents and tides and storms for months, if not years, long after the press and, thus, BP will move on," she says.
Schwartz says Sea Life Arizona will collect nylons through July 30. Stockings with runs in them are acceptable, but they should be clean. You can simply drop off donations at the admissions desk, or stay and get $2 off per person with one nylon donation per person.
If you go
What: Donate nylons to help create booms for oil spill cleanup efforts in the Gulf of Mexico.
When: Nylons will be collected Saturday through July 30; hours are 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Mondays through Saturdays and 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sundays.
Where: Sea Life Arizona at Arizona Mills mall, 5000 Arizona Mills Circle, Tempe
Cost: Donate nylons and get $2 off regular admission of $18.50 adults, $10.50 kids ages 3-12.
Information: (480) 478-7600 or www.sealifeus.com
Other ways to help
More than 300 Arizona businesses have sent hair, fur and fleece to Matter of Trust to help create oil-absorbent booms. Hair donations are on hold for now (the nonprofit's warehouses are full), but the group will have an ongoing need for it in the months to come.
Meanwhile, Matter of Trust still needs anchor line, burlap bags, crawdad bags, nylons, zip ties and gloves.
Go to www.matteroftrust.org to connect with East Valley salons, barber shops and pet groomers participating in the effort (click on "Find Participants" on the left side of the page). The site also provides instructions on how to donate other supplies.

Will Apple Miss Earnings Estimates?
You always risk getting your face handed to you if you bet against AAPL ahead of earnings. In between reports, it's not quite as hard to pick spots to go long or short, but even then, you have to be nimble. AAPL can turn on a dime. It's up, for example, about 7% in the last couple weeks after moving lower from its April highs.
In this environment, cautious AAPL bulls might consider using options to approach the stock ahead of a relatively uncertain quarterly report. While another blowout or even record quarter would not surprise me, there's no question that investors should, at the very least, pause ahead of that thought. No clear catalyst exists to drive such powerful numbers from Apple this time around.
Even if you're bullish, a pullback can provide an attractive opportunity. And you don't necessarily have to just directly "buy the dips" like the message board trolls often suggest.
If you have the capital to back the trade, selling cash-secured AAPL puts ahead of earnings could make sense.Wait for a down day between now and earnings. Look for a strike price that represents two things: One, the vicinity where you think AAPL would settle on considerable weakness and two, a price you would be more than happy to get long at, even if the stock moves lower. For example, as of Monday's close, you could sell an AAPL August $570 put and collect the bid of $9.95. That's $995 in your pocket (options use a multiplier of 100), no matter what happens with the stock. If AAPL breaches $570 (the put goes "in-the-money") between now and option expiration day in August, you will likely get put (be obligated to buy) 100 shares of AAPL at $570 apiece regardless of the stock's market price. At expiration, it's almost a guarantee you will get put shares on an in-the-money put. To put the trade on in the first place, you need $57,000 in your account to cover the purchase of 100 shares of AAPL at $570 per share in the case of assignment. If you do not have the cash, you would need sufficient account equity to back the trade. I prefer cash-secured puts as opposed to dealing with margin and naked puts.

Hi, I'm Jen. I'm the content manager here at Run Charlotte Run. I am a local yoga teacher, personal trainer, CrossFit coach and writer. I have been blogging for over four years on my blog Peanut Butter Runner and I just wrote my first book, Ultimate Plank Fitness, that will be released in April 2015. Given that my blog is named Peanut Butter Runner, it's obvious that I love peanut butter and running but my relationship with running has been long, storied and a little complicated.
Let's start from the beginning...
I took up running in college as a way to stay physically active during a time in my life where I was doing what most college kids do...going out, eating and sleeping a lot! I ran 3-4 miles about 5 days a week around beautiful Athens, Georgia (Go Dawgs!). After college, I decided to up my running game and trained for a half marathon. I ran the Myrtle Beach Half Marathon in 2006 and crossed the finish line in 2:15 thanks to my amazing training group (seriously...the support of a training group is invaluable when training for your first race!).
There is something about running half marathons that makes you think the logical next step is a marathon...so I did that. I ran my first marathon in 2009 in Birmingham, Alabama and finished in 4:45. It was one of the hardest things I have ever done. Training for a marathon was one of the most humbling experiences Ive been through with my body. I discovered that there were limits on how far I could push myself. You can read the full gory recap in this post on my blog but it was a road with injuries, highs and lows. But I can saw that crossing that finish line was 100% worth the journey to get there.
After I crossed the finish line I said, "NEVER AGAIN" but as most runners do...I did it again. I struggle with injury during high-mileage training so it was 18 months before I ran another marathon. During that break I focused more on half marathons, strength training and yoga so I felt prepared to try again. I ran the 2010 Marine Corps Marathon and finished in 4:19. A couple of months later I ran the Thunder Road Half Marathon here in Charlotte and set a PR of 1:52 and then hung up my distance running shoes.
Over 10 years of running brought me to the realization that as much as I LOVE running, my body is just not made for distance running and high-mileage training. My body IS made for running and it's still my #1 choice of exercise but it works better for me at distances of 3-6 mile runs supplemented with yoga, CrossFit and strength training. After taking the pressure off of myself to be a marathoner, I feel better and stronger in my body than I ever have before! I have also found that I really enjoy and excel more at shorter race distances like 5 and 10Ks.
So whether you're a recreational 5K jogger or hard core marathoner, Run Charlotte Run is for you. There is no special formula for being a "runner" other than loving to run. My goal is to empower all runners in Charlotte no matter your ability or experience with knowledge and resources that make you a happier and healthier runner and that build our amazing running community even stronger.

Now if they could only make a hollow point for it that would pentrate 10-12 inches and still dump 38,685 foot pounds of energy into the target you might just have the MAGIC BULLET.

Hard to really determine the rounds size without something next to it for comparison (like a .458 Win Mag), but at 86 lbs, I'd say most of the recoil would be soaked up. I'd give it a shot (once). I shot both barrels of a .458 double "once." I can tell you it did NOT weigh 86 lbs, nor did I at the time.

MERRY CHRISTMAS, 'SHIPPERS. *mic drop*
But no, seriously, how fortuitous is it that THIS should be the last update my break, eh? Ten years of waiting have finally paid off - it's a Christmas miracle! ;)
It's been ten years of waiting for me too, really. I promised myself I'd never post anything mushy about them until it happened properly in the comic because spoilers
. It was hard, but I stuck to it. But not
hard, because I got to tease the lot of you about it all along the way too ;)
Anyhow, I hope you all have a lovely holiday season, as my end-of-year, holy-crap-the-kids-are-home-all-day-for-two-weeks vacation (No pages on Dec 22 or 29) begins now. Earthsong updates will return in the new year!

NASA provides a quick look at what's been going on in the Orion, the Space Launch System and Ground Systems Development and Operations programs in April, May and June of 2014.
NASA provides a quick look at what's been going on in the Orion, the Space Launch System and Ground Systems Development and Operations programs in April, May and June of 2014.
NASA engineers recently went on an auricle ride as a scale model of the Space Launch System (SLS), including solid rocket motors, was fired -- giving an "earful" of information about how low- and high-frequency sound waves will affect the rocket on the launch pad.
When completed, SLS will be capable of taking a crew and cargo on deep space missions, including to an asteroid and eventually Mars.
NASA achieved a major milestone this month in its effort to transform the agency's Kennedy Space Center in Florida into a multi-user spaceport by successfully completing the initial design and technology development phase for the Ground Systems Development and Operations (GSDO) Program.
NASA's Orion, Space Launch System and Ground Systems Development and Operations programs continued to make progress towards sending humans beyond Earth's orbit during the past quarter.
When the Orion spacecraft blasts off atop NASA's Space Launch System rocket, attached will be the ESA-provided service module - the powerhouse that fuels and propels the Orion spacecraft.
Technicians at Textron Defense Systems near Boston are applying Avcoat ablator material to some 330,000 cells of a honeycomb on the heat shield of NASA's new Orion spacecraft. To ensure that each cell is filled correctly, they are individually X-rayed and a robot is used to machine the material, sanding off fractions of an inch so that the heat shield matches Orion's precise plans.
Technicians from Janicki Industries in Hamilton, Wash., work in collaboration with NASA's Langley Research Center in Hampton, Va., and NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala., to build part of the Space Launch System, NASA's next-generation launch vehicle.
NASA plans to begin testing RS-25 engines for its new Space Launch System (SLS) in the fall of 2014, and the agency's Stennis Space Center in Mississippi has a very big -- literally -- item to complete on the preparation checklist.
NASA MSFC intends to issue a Draft NASA Research Announcement (NRA) on or about February 1, 2012, entitled "Space Launch System (SLS) Advanced Development" for comment by industry and academia.

Filmmaker cancels appearance at Warner

TORRINGTON — Less than three weeks before he was scheduled to appear at the Warner Theatre, filmmaker Kevin Smith canceled due to a conflict with a new movie he is shooting.
The Warner had sold about 400 tickets for the Sept. 21 event and all sales will be refunded to purchasers, said Lynn Gelormino, interim general manager of the theater, on Wednesday. Smith, known for his popular films "Clerks," "Chasing Amy," and "Dogma," had been in talks with the theater about possible rescheduling starting last week.

Skip Maine state header navigation
TO: Superintendents of Schools, Principals and School Nurses
FROM: Susan A. Gendron, Commissioner of Education
Dora Anne Mills MD, MPH, Director
Maine Center for Disease Control and Prevention, MDHHS
DATE: April 12, 2006
RE: Pandemic flu planning for schools
With a strain of the H5N1 avian influenza virus circulating among birds in many parts of the world and occasionally infecting people, Maine and other states are taking steps to prepare for a possible pandemic (worldwide outbreak) of this virus.
The Maine CDC (formerly Bureau of Health) is distributing new Federal funds for pandemic influenza preparedness to each hospital and county emergency management agency. They will be convening stakeholders to develop county-wide plans by early August. These plans will be exercised later this year. School districts are named as important stakeholders. The primary County Coordinator for each county will soon be named and will be posted by the Maine CDC on their website. As county level planning gets underway, school districts will be encouraged to participate in the process.
Schools may want to consider the following action steps regarding pandemic influenza preparedness:
