NICE Ranked As The Leader In The Global PSIM Market By IMS Research
RA'ANANA, Israel, January 3, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
NICE Systems (NASDAQ: NICE) is ranked as the global leader in providing Physical Security Information Management (PSIM) software solutions, according to IMS Research (now part of IHS). The 2012 IMS Research Physical Security Information Management World Report counts NICE as the leading supplier of PSIM software based on revenues in 2011. This is the second consecutive IMS Research PSIM report that ranks NICE as the top vendor worldwide.
"The PSIM market has high barriers to entry, since it is an area that demands the type of resources available only to well-established security solutions providers that have the ability to develop, customize, and deliver complex offerings," said Niall Jenkins, manager of video surveillance and security research at IHS.
NICE's ranking as the leading PSIM provider is based on its situation management solution, NICE Situator, which met the following criteria:
- Capture and correlation of third-party systems and sensors - NICE Situator's gateway library and open architecture allow for the seamless integration and management of third-party systems and sensors. Situator's correlation engine filters the relevant information and presents a single incident to the operator.
- Active policy management and rules-based processes - Automatic tasks and adaptive workflows can be implemented based on pre-defined triggers and events for efficient collaboration and management of a situation.
- Visualization and mapping - Situator geographically maps out all systems and sensors for a comprehensive view of the situation in 2D and 3D.
- Post-event reporting and analysis - All activity managed by Situator is logged, allowing for the production of comprehensive "big picture" debriefing, analysis, and reporting.

Compared to Valentine's Day, Halloween is a holiday for sissies. Give me the Wicked Witch of the West (or Freddy Krueger, for that matter) over Cupid, that grotesque son of Venus who drags a bow-and-arrow around like pain is the only announcement of romance.
Only the truly brave can face Valentine's Day without either compulsory compensatory cynicism or a pervasive sense of craven need.
On Halloween, after all, you're supposed to assume a mask and pretend to be somebody else. On Valentine's Day, you're supposed to strip your emotional soul naked and run shrieking towards the oceanic vastness of your partner's essence. This can be tricky if you're only on a second date.
That's why lots men do on February 14th what others do on October 31st: turn off the lights and pretend to be "not home."
For men, Valentine's Day is filled horror. Is that really a surprise? They can't win. For men, all they know is that they're going to spend time searching for a way to spend money on who knows what for some woman who will, when she receives it, force that little tight smile, like a cat taking a poop, to indicate her insincere gratitude. He will fail. He has always failed. He's like the guy Jack Nicholson played in "The Shining" who has always been at that hotel. This guy has always been in the endless aisle of greeting cards or in the lingerie area of a department store. He's there until security removes him and he's muttering "I think she likes mauve. But I don't know what mauve it." And these guys are considered the lucky ones.

ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (AP) - An Atlantic City casino is bringing back coin slot machines that make the clacking, jingling sounds that once filled all of the city's casinos.
Resorts Atlantic City had replaced its slot machines that make noise as coins drop into their tray with quieter ones that give gamblers paper tickets that say how much they've won.
The casino is going against the grain as part of a retro promotion. About 90 percent of the slot machines in North America don't accept or pay out in coins.
Jeannette Snell of Union says the old-style games make her feel she's playing a true slot machine. She also liked the sound of 47 dollar-coins clacking into her tray.
Resorts has eight of the coin machines, but will add more if they catch on.

|Individualized, Personalized, and Differentiated Instruction
|Individualizing and Differentiating Learning in New York's School of One
Figure 1 depicts a model of 21st century learning powered by technology. In contrast to traditional classroom instruction, which often consists of a single educator transmitting the same information to all learners in the same way, the model puts students at the center and empowers them to take control of their own learning by providing flexibility on several dimensions. A core set of standards-based concepts and competencies form the basis of what all students should learn, but beyond that students and educators have options for engaging in learning: large groups, small groups, and work tailored to individual goals, needs, and interests.
Figure 1. A Model of Learning
In this model, technology supports learning by providing engaging environments and tools for understanding and remembering content. For example, game-based courses use features familiar to game players to teach core subject content such as history. Technology provides access to a much wider and more flexible set of learning resources than is available in classrooms and connections to a wider and more flexible set of "educators," including teachers, parents, experts, and mentors outside the classroom. Engaging and effective learning experiences can be individualized or differentiated for particular learners (either paced or tailored to fit their learning needs) or personalized, which combines paced and tailored learning with flexibility in content or theme to fit the interests and prior experience of each learner. (See sidebar for definitions of individualized, differentiated, and personalized learning.)
An example of individualized and differentiated learning can be found in New York City's School of One pilot, a 2009 summer program that allowed students learning mathematics to learn at their own pace and in a variety of ways. On the basis of its initial success, the School of One concept will be expanded throughout 2010 and 2011.
Personalized learning supports student learning in areas of particular interest to them. For example, a student who learns Russian to read the works of Dostoevsky in their original form and another who orders a surgical kit on eBay to practice sutures on oranges are learning things we would never ask all students to do. But these things are important because they are driven by learners' own passions.
Within specific content areas, although standards exist for what we expect all students to know and be able to do, the model also provides options for how the learning can take place. Among these options is working with others in project-based learning built around challenges with real-world relevance. Well-designed projects help students acquire knowledge in specific content areas and also support the development of more specialized adaptive expertise that can be applied in other areas (Trilling & Fadel, 2009). Technology also gives students opportunities for taking ownership of their learning. Student-managed electronic learning portfolios can be part of a persistent learning record and help students develop the self-awareness required to set their own learning goals, express their own views of their strengths, weaknesses, and achievements, and take responsibility for them. Educators can use them to gauge students' development, and they also can be shared with peers, parents, and others who are part of students' extended network.

Kudzu reviews helped me choose them. My fence looks great. They understand great customer service. They updated me with there install time. Called me the day before and follow up communication afterwards. I could not have had a much better experience.
Installed a wooden fence around my backyard. Despite a problem with the manufacturer of the fence, the company is working with us to get resolution. Really appreciate the proactive attitude of the company's president.
I had a 6 foot privacy fence installed. The salesman was pleasant and the install crew was great. It was a little worrisome between deposit being cashed and > 2 weeks before the next contact from them about installing my fence -- the quiet makes you worried. Also -- fence gates do not come with inside pulls -- only outside pulls so you get splinters pulling gate shut by the "Z" board. I installed my own pulls. It is frustrating that they upcharge for credit card use but overall the price was very reasonable. I would use them again.
Customer Service from beginning to end was exceptional! Contracts are clear and concise. Work product is amazing. Extremely happy with their work.
First Fence came out a very short notice to give an estimate, were very competitive and the installation very efficient.

Very professional and courteous. They did a great job and had the best quote. The sales person was knowledgeable and honest.
We had a hiccup early on in that the original estimator lost contact. It turns out he left the company, so I don't hold that against them. In fact, I would say that they made it up to us by letting us split our job in half. We've had the two short pieces done in the front and will have a longer piece done in the back in a month or so, I think. The installers were very nice, very professional, and clearly very able. The finished work looks excellent.
Received several quotes and First Fence was the best based on what I was looking for. Arrived at appointed time for survey and installation, even though we had to cancel the first install date due to the rain, but they called in advance to advise the weather forecast called for rain and would need to cancel if raining. Fence looks great , and the HOA is also happy. Would use again and definitely recommend.
Love my wrought iron fence. First Fence of GA was spot on in every way. Highly recommend them. Lawrenceville, GA.
Estimator was right on time, quote was reasonable. Installers showed up right on time and the quality was great. Highly recommended!

Very professional! Very punctual! Very clean work! Very respectful salesmen and workers! Trustworthy!
They installed a 160' long 6' high capped privacy fence in 1 day EXACTLY to my specification for what I believe was a VERY reasonable price. Everything went perfectly and I have received MANY compliments including a local realtor friend of mine who has seen hundreds of fences. He wishes First Fence had done his.
I was very happy with work. Did great job. Love new gate they built. Quick service, reasonable priced. Only complaint was they would not remove an old privacy fence to replace in exact location because if closeness to underground electrical. No holes would have been dug. I think they overreacted. Otherwise would use again.
Service-wise, this is one of the best companies I have ever worked with in my life. That's not hyperbole. Everyone was very friendly, knowledgeable, professional and communicative. The price was the best of those we were quoted, and they were able to install within my fairly tight time frame. I wish all companies lived up to First Fence's standard of customer care.
We had contacted 1st Fence for fence quote at our home. From the initial contact with the office, the site visit and estimate with Robert, a few conversations with George, and the installation, I was nothing less than impressed. We have a difficult hill that the crew had to deal with. The crew showed up on time and while the foreman walked the property with me, his crew was already getting the tools out and the lumber was being placed in its proper locations. I was amazed at how diligent the crew worked and the quality of fence that they built. I asked the foreman how long the project would take, expecting him to say 1 1/2 days, but was surely surprised when he said that they would finish in one day. I checked in a couple of times throughout the day and could not believe the progress they were making. The crew finished the job in one day, as promised. When completed, the guys picked up all scraps/ trash and spread the dirt from the post holes so that I didn't have to. I have been planning this project for some time now and have no doubt that we picked the right contractor for the job. I know who I will be recommending to my friends, 1st Fence of Georgia. The fence is built very well and all of the posts are in concrete, and they used 6x6s on my gates which I had to request in quotes from other contractors. Good Job 1st Fence! My next fence will definitely be a 1st Fence!!

The Happy Hollows, the Health Club at Spaceland
The Happy Hollows are the kind of musicians who like to set up and play at spontaneously chosen locations around town — underground tunnels, parking lots, oil fields, an urban pumpkin patch — as they did last fall, when they were part of the Guerrilla Fest. The trio's new full-length CD, Spells, is likewise full of surprises that crop up in the strangest places, such as the way that the giddy bubblegum pop of "We Will Find You" suddenly switches gears into a post-punk art-funk stoniness. Sarah Negahdari chirps sweetly enough at the fuzz-punk beginning of "Lieutenant," but soon she's bending her ethereal voice and manically intricate guitar riffs around the song's proggy twists and turns like Marnie Stern. Similarly, "Monster Room" is pretty and weird, with its combination of Breeders harmonies and sideways-raining Urinals guitar. The Hollows cast their Spells out into the great, big world at tonight's record release, supported by the Pity Party, the Boxing Lesson, and the Health Club, another local trio with a penchant for turning post-punk riffs inside-out. (Falling James)
Also playing Friday:
IDYLLISTS, COSIO, JUDSON MCKINNEY at the Bootleg Theater; FRANK SINATRA JR. at the Canyon Club; JON BRION at Largo at the Coronet; UDACHI, BREAKDOWN, DEATHFACE, PAPARAZZI at El Rey Theatre.
Mos Def, Erykah Badu, Jay Electronica at the Hollywood Palladium
Even hardcore Mos Def fans had to have been worried about the health of the actor-rapper's career for the past few years: First he releases the supremely half-assed True Magic, an album so uninspired it came without cover art, then he stars with Jack Black in Be Kind Rewind, Michel Gondry's high-concept VHS-nostalgia dud. Fortunately, Mos came back strong earlier this year with The Ecstatic, a dense slab of brainy-gritty boogie-down widely praised as his finest since his landmark solo debut, Black on Both Sides. (Dude also cropped up in a nice episode of House.) Tonight's show is the final date of his North American tour in support of the new record, and for the occasion he'll be joined by Erykah Badu, who should never be missed; Badu reportedly plans to release the sequel to 2008's New Amerykah before the end of the year, so perhaps she'll provide a preview. Blog-rap buzz baby Jay Electronica opens. (Mikael Wood)
Long Beach Blues Festival at Rainbow Lagoon Park
Also playing Saturday:
NINE INCH NAILS, HEALTH at the Wiltern; BUYEPONGO at Juanita's; THE AVETT BROTHERS, SALLIE FORD & THE SOUND OUTSIDE at the Orpheum Theatre; CRAWLSPACE, SACCHARINE TRUST, PEG LEG LOVE at American Legion Post 206; THIS IS THE STATE, LISA DONNELLY at the Bootleg Theater; TANDEMORO, THE VOYEURS, THE BREAKUPS at Spaceland; BOB WEIR & RATDOG, JACKIE GREENE at the Greek Theatre; BUSHWALLA, BIG GIGANTIC at the Mint.
Angel City Jazz Fest with Bennie Maupin, Wayne Horvitz, Dave Douglas, The Nels Cline Singers at John Anson Ford Amphitheatre
It's billed as "L.A.'s Only Alternative, Non-Commercial Jazz Festival," and you really ought to be grateful for the progressive plateful of heavy hitters shreddin' the boards for your new thing–seeking pleasure. This is a chance to experience the very best in the more modernist spheres of jazz-aligned new music. Certain highlights are Tortoise guitarist Jeff Parker's jam with the Nels Cline Singers, featuring superax from Wilco guitarist Nels (and not a singer in sight); Nels' bro, drummer-composer extraordinaire Alex Cline, brings his Band of the Moment; revered nu-jazz trumpeter Dave Douglas debuts his alternatively arranged Brass Ecstasy; woodwind player/composer Bennie Maupin and an all-star crew present Dolphyana, West Coast premieres of newly discovered compositions by Eric Dolphy. Also, pianist Wayne Horvitz's extraordinary Gravitas Quartet, pianist Motoko Honda and butoh master Oguri, the Gathering, featuring woodwind player Jesse Sharps and vocalist Dwight Trible, and many others. Also Mon. (John Payne)

American Chemical Society
The American Chemistry Society, ACS, Duquesne Student Chapter consists of individuals who are "dynamic and visionary, committed to 'improving people's lives through the transforming power of chemistry.'" The ACS advances the "broader chemistry enterprise and its practitioners for the benefit of Earth and its people." The ACS looks to connect with other chemists and chemical engineers in their geographic area, participate in programs near their homes that can enhance their professional development, contribute to the public's understanding of chemistry in their communities. ACS regional meetings are hosted by local sections in various geographic regions across the United States.
"Through the ACS Student Members, we use our chemistry backgrounds to increase the understanding and enthusiasm that students have towards science in an effort to diversify the scientific community of the future". The organization provides members to grow as chemists and as members of society. The ACS focuses on community outreach, particularly focusing on young students to gain an interest in chemistry, as well as promote awareness on campus and in the community.
Various outreaches consist of- scientific education and promotion on Duquesne's campus among non-science majors with Mole Day, Pi Day, Autumn Fest. The promotion of STEM education in the Pittsburgh area through National Chemistry Week, SciTech, Carnegie Science Center. ACS student members develop and promote scientific achievement through participation in scientific research and research conferences such as PittCon, ACS National Conference, Undergraduate Research and professional development programming.
"When I was deciding which community agency to serve this semester through this class, Duquesne's student chapter of the American Chemical Society seemed like the perfect fit. As a chemistry major, research is a big part of our academic curriculum at Duquesne, however, I have always enjoyed working with people. I love meeting new people, hearing their stories, and interacting with the community I am a part of. As a result, I have a strong passion for the promotion of STEM education in America, and I feel that this is where I will take the knowledge I have gained at Duquesne in the next part of my life. That is why I have loved participating in service with ACS. Through participating in events like National Chemistry Week and SciTech this semester, I have been able to take my knowledge of Chemistry out into the Pittsburgh community and hopefully inspire young children with a passion for math and science.
It was great to be able to bring my love of science and math to children in the Pittsburgh community. I hope that I have made an impact on the people I have served though Science at the Service of Society , and I am so grateful I had the chance to be able to do this."
- Kathleen Kelly, Chemistry, Graduate of 2014

We use a system from Paxton, Net 2 Access which was installed by Gough & Kelly, we have mag locks on the 'external' doors which are released by presenting your chipped Mifare card to a reader (which simultaneously clocks you in). We have it linked to our fire system which then prints a roll call list in the event of an activation.
Seems to work quite well, we only use it for staff and Post 16 at present and we've few problems generally. The biggest issue has been getting staff to use it, some staff are reluctant as they feel it is questioning their 'professionalism'.
You can set different zones with different times the doors will operate, for example we only give our Post-16 students 'Out' access at one particular door during school hours whereas the site team cards can access any door any time.

Top Local Tips for Chennai
Prepaid Taxi Service from Chennai Airport Taxi services from Chennai Airport: My family and I travelled a couple of times from the Chennai airport during our visit in Jan '09. We used the prepaid taxi services available both at the domestic and the international flight sectors. There are 2 prepaid taxi companies available. One is through the TamilNadu Tourism center and the other was 'Aviation Express' ( both counters are side by side and are hard to miss as you wheel your baggage out). We used the Aviation express taxi's as we were told that the cars were of better quality. We prepaid the fare at the counter . The fare is determined by the no. of passengers, baggage count and size, and distance travelling. We ( 3 individuals) paid Rs 400 ( approx $8) for our drive from the airport to the KKNagar with 3 moderately sized luggage and a backpack. Ours was a AC'ed Toyata van and the drive was smooth and hassle free. Another advantage is that the drivers are well versed with the Chennai traffic and so is less hassle free even if relatives are there to pick you up at the airport. Ofcourse, the traffic in Chennai is a nightmare with no law that I can comprehend ( the bolder and mightier gets the way!) and so my advice would be to trust your driver and relax back in the seat as he gets you to the destination.

Delta May Spark Merger Mania
CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Airline industry consolidation has moved a step closer to reality, now that Delta (DAL) has made clear that it wants to be a player.
"We do believe the right transaction, certainly for Delta, would add tremendous value," Ed Bastian, the carrier's president, declared last week, as he discussed mergers at a Wall Street investor conference. "We're looking at the question
Bastian also said, "Delta views itself an acquirer, not a seller." In tone, he went beyond statements made last month by Delta's new CEO Richard Anderson, who said, on his first earnings call, that the carrier is open to a deal.
With Delta in, three of the six legacy carriers are now publicly committed to pursuing merger possibilities. US Airways (LCC) CEO Doug Parker, one of two leading advocates for consolidation, has presided over a merger between US Airways and America West, as well as a failed bid for Delta.UAL (UAUA) CEO Glenn Tilton, the other supporter, regularly calls for consolidation, although so far he hasn't gotten anywhere despite approaches to Continental (CAL), Delta and possibly others. Parker offered fresh perspective on the issue last week, telling the same investor conference that US Airways may have a diminished role because it is the smallest legacy carrier. "It's not as if we can force this to happen at this point. Being the sixth of the big six, we're not going to be somebody's first choice," he said. However, he added, "It's hard to marginalize $11 billion in revenue."

2012 Olympic Medal Count
The 2012 London Summer Olympics are closed and it's a great time to tally up the results in gold, silver, and bronze. Here is Kidzworld's Olympic Medal Count… Back to Article
i like the summer olympics better than the winter...more exciting
I watched that last year!!!!
That medal count looks like it was from the BBC.

usa won! they broke china's world record!
So sad India did not get any gold medals yet!!!


text: Well, it was bound to happen. Sooner or later, someone had to make a trendy, erotic, dark-side-of-yuppie-life thriller in which the early, ''psychological'' part you know, when you're actually supposed to believe what's going on manages to be every bit as stupid and predictable as the flat-footed finale. In Consenting Adults, Kevin Kline, as a complacent suburbanite, agrees to swap wives with his new neighbor (Kevin Spacey), a fellow so gross and disreputable I didn't believe Kline would even want to have a beer with him. Aficionados of high kink shouldn't get their hopes up: The sex scenes are synthetic and perfunctory, and the film devolves into a drably inept variation on Double Indemnity. This is the sort of cloddish thriller in which characters keep putting themselves in dangerous situations because...the movie requires them to be in dangerous situations. The one true surprise has nothing at all to do with the plot: It's Kevin Spacey's hair. Dyed a glittering blond, it sets off his smirky, come-hither mug with maximum perversity. D

Diamond Sea Glaze Licensed By Smart Glass Company Research Frontiers To Manufacture And Sell SPD-Smart Marine Products
LANGLEY, British Columbia and WOODBURY, N.Y., Dec. 14, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Diamond Sea-Glaze Manufacturing Ltd. (DSG) and Research Frontiers Inc. jointly announced to the yacht industry today that DSG has become licensed to make SPD-Smart marine windows and other products worldwide. When Research Frontiers' patented SPD-Smart light-control technology is used in yacht windows and other products, users can instantly and precisely control and "tune" the amount of light, glare and heat coming through their windows, while preserving their view.
The non-exclusive worldwide license provides for a 15% royalty to Research Frontiers on sales of licensed products including windows, hatches, doors and partitions. The minimum annual royalties and other license terms were not disclosed.
"Diamond Sea Glaze's marine glazings are used throughout the world on boats ranging from government and commercial vessels, to pleasure boats and yachts," said Dave Bockhold, CEO of DSG. "Many of our customers are now asking for products that provide advanced light-control, and we have been working with a major yacht manufacturer as our first launch customer for SPD-Smart windows. Our evaluation indicates that SPD-Smart technology can exceed the demanding needs of our customers due to its extraordinary ability to quickly adjust its tint to any desired level, including very dark states that can exceed 99.5% light-blockage. We anticipate that marketing activities with this new product will begin early in the second quarter of 2011 with integration into our launch customer's megayacht product line later in the year."

Gluten-Free Oatmeal Raisin Muffins with Honey
Anything containing oatmeal and raisins is usually among the all-time favorites in my house, and these muffins are no exception. So, I made several batches of them and experimented a little with the sweetener. These Gluten-Free Oatmeal Raisin Muffins with honey are what we like the best. In fact, a not-to-be-disclosed family member declared that these were absolutely delicious!
I like that the honey is a little better for us than the more traditional granulated cane sugar or brown sugar that is in many of my other muffin recipes.

Isabella and Amadeo. The toast of international society and the undisputed leaders of Rome couture. Together they ruled the House of San Gregoria, a monument to Isabella's fabulous designs and stunning beauty, to Amadeo's unerring flair and golden Florentine elegance. And beyond their enchanted world of splendour shone their boundless, undying love for one another.
Then suddenly their dream was shattered. Amadeo was gone - forever. Isabella fled to Rome for a new life of bitter struggles and haunting memories. With her proud courage and all her zest for living could she ever say goodbye to the past and dare to love again.

Danielle Steel is an internationally best-selling author of over fifty romance novels. Since publishing her first book in 1973, Steel has acquired an enormous following of loyal, avid readers.
Steel was born on August 14, 1947, in New York City, the only child of John Schuelein-Steel, a member of Munich's wealthy Lowenbrau beer family, and Norma Schuelein-Steel, an international beauty from Portugal. Steel's parents divorced when she was seven or eight years old. Afterwards, she was raised by relatives and servants in Paris and New York. She graduated from the Lycee Francais when she was not quite fifteen and in 1963 entered New York's Parsons School of Design. However, she soon abandoned her dream of becoming "the new Chanel" when the pressure to succeed caused her to develop a stomach ulcer. She then enrolled at New York University, where she studied until 1967. When she was eighteen, Steel married her first husband, a French banker with homes in New York, San Francisco, and Paris.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I loved everything about these invites, I used them for my wedding with a picture of my fiance and me and then a picture of our daughter, and then one of us as a family. It worked perfect and fit the theme amazingly. The pictures were crystal clear, and printed beautifully. My order even came in a week earlier then was estimated. they were quick and professional."
"Quality was wonderful, we chose the metallic paper, so our invites had a bit of shimmer to them. We used a full photo on the back with another engagement photo, and had so many compliments of the design and quality! Shipping was right on time, and without a hitch! I have recommended WPD to so many of our friends and family, and will continue to use the affiliates for all of our stationary needs in the future!"
"My wedding invitations turned out more perfect than I could have even hoped for! The paper is a thick, matte card stock; I was a little worried that it would look like I just printed a collage from my local photo department but it absolutely does not! Additionally, I requested custom colors for the background and text, and the designers nailed it perfectly! I couldn't be happier with my invitations!"
"The invitations turned out stunningly beautiful, romantic and sexy. I couldn't be happier. The colors were perfect. The Swirl liner and antique envelopes were beautiful. I can't wait to send them out. My save the date magnets were the same design and my guests loved them; one went as far as saying the picture was magical. Our romantic cruise picture was the way to go and Divas did the job juctice. Thanks!"
"I drafted invitations for wedding paper divas and Vista print and shutter fly and my main concern was that wedding paper divas cost more than the other 2 venders. However, the design could not be beat. My fiance and I actually used this pose that was featured on this invitation for the engagement photo. I ordered my invitations here and rsvp and address labels from vista print to save money on the cheaper, less important items. The invitations were reviewed quickly with quick feedback, delivered quickly despite standard delivery and looked AMAZING. I've never seen matte paper that printed so well and brought out colors so well. Very very surprising."

Here are three easy-to-incorporate standards offered by John Maxwell in his book, The 17 Indisputable Laws of Teamwork, to increase the effectiveness of your communication.
1) Be consistent. It's incredibly frustrating when someone says one thing one day and something different the next (when there has been no intervening variables to cause a change). Over time, this inconsistency in the messages you're sending leads people to not trust what you have to say. So if you want to be taken seriously and earn credibility as a leader and a strong communicator, you have to be consistent in the messages you send to others.

Police say a robber who threatened an employee of a bank branch in a South Lake Tahoe supermarket with what he said was a box containing a bomb fled with an undisclosed amount of money and forced the evacuation of the market.
South Lake Tahoe Police Lt. Martin Hale said the robbery occurred at a Wells Fargo bank branch located in a Raley's supermarket near the California-Nevada line.
Hale said the supermarket was evacuated after the robber fled on foot and left behind the box.
A bomb squad from the neighboring Douglas County, Nev., sheriff's department was summoned to determine whether the alleged bomb was real or fake.
The robbery occurred as tens of thousands of people crowded into the South Lake Tahoe area to celebrate the New Year.

Gossip Girl Scoop: Latest on J's (Short-Lived) Returnby Steve Marsi at . Comments
It looks like the embattled Jenny Humphrey's return to Gossip Girl this fall involves (shocker) a fashion event and (another shocker!) a brawl with Blair Waldorf!
Jenny reappearance is directly connected to Tim Gunn's cameo, EW reports, as Blair permits her nemesis to return to the scene of her last crime (Manhattan).
Of course, the return is short-lived.
THE SHOWDOWN: In one of the Gossip Girl set photos we posted earlier, Jenny appears to square off with Blair as Chuck looks on. Could be the scene we're describing here.
Lil J will be in the Big Apple just long enough for her to interview for a job with Gunn at Parsons. But what might have been a triumphant return will go awry.
Let's just say the Raccoon inadvertently gets caught up in Chuck and Blair's latest drama, and the pent-up tension boils over at (what else) a big fancy party.
Steve Marsi is the Managing Editor of TV Fanatic. Follow him on Google+ or email him here.Tags: Gossip Girl, Spoilers
i love every part of gossip girl,serena luv u girl
morfoulaassi- Jenny is a threat to B and Vanessa wasn't. But I hope B gets to punch little J in the face this season or at lease someone should.
I think Chair is meant to be. But Jenny did nothing wrong and if Blair has forgiven Chuck for sleeping with Vanessa ( which was OMG why would he sleep with her?) she should have forgiven him for being so crashed and sleeping with Poor J.
And she should have helped J because she has been in similar place on the first season.But because several things went on and J became her main enemy on Season 3 she thought she wanted to steal Chuck from her and wanted to get her as far from him as possible. I believe that in the end all will be forgiven.On both sides.Blair must also have seen herself in the situation.
Girl wants Nate.Nate wants Serena. Girl sleeps with Chuck.
She felt that maybe something like what happened between her and Chuck would follow and she wouldn't have a chance to change it. Maybe...
This season I'd love the writers to explore some Dair and then go back to this. Chair Darena Natessa and maybe Jeric if possible???
aaaa no wayy why blair waldorf must back to have relationship with chuck again! it is so boring JOSH!!! GOSSIP GIRL MUST HAVE A NEW STORIES!!! more drama! we all most of all fans love to see BLAIR have a new pince man for her like was in paris!!!! that is so goood!!!
@anitac It's a free country. If people want to complain about the show, then they will complain about the show. It's what fans are supposed to do. Also, where do you get off saying that we are not fans of the show if we are no longer watching it? That's like saying that some of us aren't fans of The Simpsons because we stopped watching the thing when it got sucky or because we didn't stick around for the end of "That '70s Show" (anybody else think that the last half of Season 7 and the entirety of Season 8 sucked?). Let's face it. All of us are fans of the show regardless of whether we choose to watch it or not. You are right we can change the channel or watch it on DVD. It's perfectly good and legal to do so, but who are you telling us where to get off? As Blair Waldorf once told Little Jenny Humphrey, "Haven't you heard of a whispered aside?" And, yes, we would set up our own little places for complaining. There are plenty of those on the internet, but do you know why some of us keep coming back here and post time after time, post after post, day after day, episode after episode, season after season? It's not because we absolutely hate the show, but because we love it and because it hurts the living daylights out of us to watch it be ruined by Josh Schwartz and the other people working for him.
it bothers me so much how this is called "jenny's latest crime." i'm a major chair fan and even i can see that she did nothing wrong. chuck and blair were broken up and from what chuck told her, blair never wanted to see him again. it's chuck who made a huge mistake, but even what he did was not AS bad as blair is making it out to be. i love love love blair, but this is ridiculous. chuck has slept with countless people before when heartbroken over her. i can understand how it hurts more when it's jenny...but still, the only person in this situation i can really feel sorry for is jenny. the poor girl lost her virginity in a totally meaningless way and is now being shunned for not doing anything wrong.
agreed mrs. bass.
I LOVE chuck and HATE jenny. Im extremely pissed. But i kinda forgave chuck along time ago, but it still bothers me. And his excuse"I thought you didnt love me anymore." really. whatever. Jennys just a whore.
I hate how everyone says that blzair shouldn't be mad at jenny for what she did when if that happened to you in real life you'd want to fight her or something else equally dumb
Whatever this scene is about, i hope its something good! Complain, complain, and complain; that is really what some of you do all the time. either the clothes are not good enough, the storyline is sucky, you wish it was like season 1 and 2, you're no longer fans of the show, "you're through with Gossip Girl" goodness its a SHOW, you don't need to take it so seriously. You don't like what you see turn the channel and move on. But to use this site as you're "Gossip Girl bashing place" is rude and unacceptable. If you want to go off on Gossip Girl, sign up for a blog and tell your feelings there! I'm tired of coming on here hearing people whine about the show. Please take that somewhere else.
I agree, this is not the Chuck and Blair show. Blair is conceited, she shouldn't be threatening Jenny for sleeping with Chuck when they were broken up. I can't wait for Jenny to return for good and take on Blair!!

Besides the picturesque locale, Esther Elias stumbles upon a century-old natural history museum and archives at Shenbaganur
The peace begins from Palani railway station. Tamarind trees branch over an empty road stretching past mango orchards and coconut plantations. The Western Ghats peep through gaps in the foliage and before long, we're on their ascent. The morning sun hides behind a cloudless sky washed clear by the night's downpour. Trees overrun by creepers bear telltale raindrops, rivulets rush down the winding road and our car makes sprays of large puddles. We're about 65 km from Shenbaganur, a small town before Kodaikanal, but the journey is more the destination.
The Palani Ghat Road to Kodaikanal turns 14 hairpin bends, each close behind the other's heels. It runs through none of the manicured beauty of hill station tea estates though. Every spare inch is a mad profusion of grasses and ferns, shrubs, climbers and trees — enough of a visual feast to distract from a churning stomach. As the hills rise, the valleys in between fall deep below. The plains grow further away, and lines of cattle grazing and women farming soon fade into faraway dots.
Along the turns, the view occasionally breaks to reveal grey mountains outlined against a white-blue sky. In the distance, threads of white water fall from cloudy heights. Up close, small streams bounce over jagged rocks to shush your climb up. The signs of civilization begin after several hairpin bends. People huddle around scattered tea-coffee-tiffin joints. With sweaters wrapped tight and hands warmed by steaming glasses, they're prepared for the cold winds that rush past the white barks of sprightly eucalyptus. Soon enough we've passed the gushing 'Silver Cascade' falls. It's designated tourist territory and most tourists follow the well-worn road up to Kodaikanal.
Instead, a sharp turn to the right leads us to the century-old Natural Science Museum (NSM) in Shenbaganur. It's home to a collection of plant and animal species native to the Palani Hills, curated by biologist Louis (Aloysius) Anglade in the early 1900s. Stuffed tiger, pangolin, brown flying squirrel and porcupine sit beside Indian moorhen and pheasant tailed jacana. Python and cobra skins hang alongside spotted deer and wild buffalo skins. Bottled snakes and animal foetuses share room with hundreds of pinned butterflies. A cross section of a 133-year-old monkey puzzle tree hangs on the wall — its lifetime, from planting to being cut for a TV tower, traced across its growth rings. NSM is a still jungle within four walls.
The museum also takes you through the stories of the Paliyars and Puliars, tribes that lived a few kilometres within and around Shenbaganur, particularly in Perumalmalai and Palamalai, 7,000 years ago. In 1928, as part of his study of the Palani Hills, Anglade uncovered Adivasi funeral urns dating back to 5,000 B.C. These gigantic urns, some cracked, some whole, stand intact in the museum with the bones found within them, piled alongside. The urns were excavated beside tribal dolmens — structures made of stone, each often over a tonne in weight, created without hammers or chisels. Photographs of the dolmens are framed inside NSM but what's more fascinating are Anglade's miniature three-dimensional sculptures of them. The tribals' unearthed earthenware, characteristic of the Iron Age, are also exhibited at the museum.
NSM comes under the purview of Shenbaganur's Sacred Heart College, begun in 1895 to train Jesuits. Within the maze of wooden floorboards and staircases, is an unassuming room named Jesuit Madurai Province Archives. Shafts of sunlight fall through skywindows onto cupboards of books and manuscripts dating back to the 16th Century. Under a distilled stream of dust, assistant director of Jesuit Archives, Edward Jeganathan opens a drawer piled high with red cloth covers, each strongly scented with citronella oil. He unwraps one cloth to reveal rectangular palm leaves, strung together by twine and bound between wood spines. Each is covered by the print-like Tamil handwriting of Joseph Beschi from the early 1600s. The Italian Jesuit later became the famous Tamil poet and grammarian to be honoured by a statue on Chennai's Marina Beach. The archives contain 30,000 such palm leaves from the time.
A walk around Shenbaganur reveals many similar small wonders. Scattered across the slopes are a few remaining kurinji shrubs that flower once every 12 years. Their light blue flowers are said to have once graced the Nilgiris dense enough to be named The Blue Mountains. As we prepare to leave, a soft wind scatters a few leaves from the once-widespread Shenbaga tree, after which Shenbaganur is named. It's a blessed goodbye.

Containerized imports will increase gradually during the summer months and are projected to rise sharply in September and October, according to the Global Port Tracker published by the National Retail Federation and Hackett Associates.
Global Port Tracker is basing its forecast for a strong peak shipping season on recent readings regarding consumer confidence and retail sales in the U.S.
"Retail sales have seen 22 straight months of year-over-year sales increases, and these import projections suggest retailers should see growth into the two-year mark and beyond," said Jonathan Gold, NRF's vice president for supply chain and customs policy.
"Consumer confidence is at the highest level since 2007," said Ben Hackett, founder of Hackett Associates.
Global Port Tracker estimates that containerized imports at U.S. ports were up only 0.5 percent in May compared to May 2011. Growth is projected to reach 4.8 percent in June, 2.5 percent in July and 7.3 percent in August compared to the same months last year.
Growth in container volumes is projected to increase to 9 percent in September and 19.9 percent in October, traditionally the strongest months of the year for imports from Asia. Global Port Tracker noted the October numbers would receive an extra boost because they will be compared to unusually weak numbers in October 2011.
The trans-Pacific trade could use a dose of optimism for the second half of the year. Containerized imports in the first six months of 2012 are projected to increase only 2 percent from the first half of 2011.
Hackett said the trade is dealing with economic uncertainties around the globe and conflicting reports in the U.S. For example, consumer demand for durable goods has been weak for some time and dropped further in May, yet consumer confidence now is quite high.
"Confused? So is the average consumer," he said.

After months of reading, discussing, evaluating, and collaborating, the 14 fiction and poetry judges have settled on the 2011 Best Translated Book Award Finalists. Here's the official press release.
Highlights from this year's fiction list include Ernst Weiss's Georg Letham: Physician and Murder, translated from the German by Joel Rotenberg; Tove Jansson's The True Deceiver, translated from the Swedish by Thomas Teal; and Marlene Van Niekerk's Agaat, translated from the Afrikaans by Michiel Heyns. And notable poetry finalists include Aleš Šteger's The Book of Things, translated from the Slovenian by Brian Henry; and Ayane Kawata's Time of Sky & Castles in the Air, translated from the Japanese by previous BTBA winner, Sawako Nakayasu.
"As in years past, the panels did a great job selecting their finalists," said Chad W. Post, director of Three Percent. "There's a lot of diversity here, in terms of original languages, in terms of style, in terms of original publication date, and in terms of reputation. These lists capture the wealth of exciting literature being produced outside our borders."
The Best Translated Book Awards launched in 2007 as a way of bringing attention to great works of international literature. Original translations (no reprints or retranslations) published between December 2009 and November 2010 are eligible for this year's award.

Another change to this year's BTBA, is that thanks to the support of Amazon.com (www.tinyurl.com/amazongiving), each winning author and translator will receive a $5,000 cash prize. The BTBA is one of several non-profit programs supported by Amazon.com that is focused on bringing more great works from around the world to English-language readers. Other recipients include the Pen American Center Translation Fund, Words without Borders, Open Letter, the Center for the Art of Translation, Archipelago Books, and the Ledig House International Writers Residency.

Card itself was great, getting hold of it difficult though as place had shut down and we had to travel elsewhere to exchange our voucher
It was great, I didn't have time to do everything I wanted to do, b/c of personal commitments already scheduled. I feel like it was a great deal!!!
great card
Go orlando card is a must have, but be careful in some cases, e.g. Kennedy Space Center only excepts from a 3-day Card, not for 1 or 2 day cards
Dwayne B
Made the our trip very flexible and gave us the ability to see much more things.
The places were a little far apart - I wish we had known that when we bought the tickets.
