Movie Info
In the hilarious new animated-adventure, Ratatouille, a rat named Remy dreams of becoming a great chef despite his family's wishes and the obvious problem of being a rat in a decidedly rodent-phobic profession. When fate places Remy in the city of Paris, he finds himself ideally situated beneath a restaurant made famous by his culinary hero, Auguste Gusteau. Despite the apparent dangers of being an unwanted visitor in the kitchen at one of Paris' most exclusive restaurants, Remy forms an unlikely partnership with Linguini, the garbage boy, who inadvertently discovers Remy's amazing talents. They strike a deal, ultimately setting into motion a hilarious and exciting chain of extraordinary events that turns the culinary world of Paris upside down. Remy finds himself torn between following his dreams or returning forever to his previous existence as a rat. He learns the truth about friendship, family and having no choice but to be who he really is, a rat who wants to be a chef. … More

Critic Reviews for Ratatouille
All Critics (231) | Top Critics (48) | Fresh (221) | Rotten (10) | DVD (39)
Kids are gonna gobble Ratatouille up; adults will relish its wit, and everyone will want to go out to eat after.
Ratatouille is a film made for snobs that may still repel them.
A lot of animated movies have inspired sequels, notably Shrek, but Brad Bird's Ratatouille is the first one that made me positively desire one.
Ratatouille is a veritable feast for the eye and the ear. Don't miss it.
In Ratatouille, the level of moment-by-moment craftsmanship is a wonder.
I think Brad Bird is working on another level than most animated writer/directors.
No restaurant has ever benefited from placing rats in a recipe, but the digital wizards in Pixar's kitchen have cooked up a winning peasant dish in Ratatouille.
Ratatouille is a wonderful, wistful comedy, and a sparkling return to form for the computer animation studio Pixar after last year's lacklustre Cars.
It's one of the strange ironies of Hollywood that adult audiences are usually treated like imbeciles while children receive much greater respect.
Ratatouille isn't a bad movie, just one that doesn't do enough of what it does well.
Ratatouille is a delicious delight, brimming with colorful characters, lush animation and, as Remy rises at a chic Parisian restaurant, useful culinary advice.
The breathtaking reveal of Paris, the legendary city of lights, is only one of the many delights of this exquisitely designed movie.
Ratatouille manages to simultaneously provide everything we love about Pixar movies while forging a new path.
Ratatouille seems more charming in concept than in execution. Bogged down by too many climaxes, it's a little overcooked.
Working with a tight, well-judged script and sensational animation that makes you want to go home and cook -- as well as be nicer to rodents -- director Brad Bird delivered the best family comedy of that year.
Thankfully, Ratatouille never relies on pop-culture references or crass satire to get laughs. It creates comedy on its own terms.
The Academy might as well hand over the animated feature Oscar to Brad Bird right now, since it is hard to imagine any other film coming close to his glorious new film Ratatouille in this or any year.
Ratatouille follows the pattern of dazzling entertainment set long before by the first Toy Story picture, but elevates it to something more resounding than just a routine cartoon adventure with colorful characters or sight gags.
Up there with Finding Nemo and Monsters Inc. as one of Pixar's best creature features.
As classically as "Babe," "Ratatouille" turns animal-kingdom expectations on their ear for a unique, generous and gleeful gastronomic masterpiece that knows it's not much fun to look out, or cook, only for yourself.
It's a m�lange of top notch production quality, great performances, amazing animation, and a universal story of friendship.
To borrow a line from the film, which includes an insightful look at the art of criticism: my compliments to the chef.

Didn't love it, but i do wish i had seee it in the theatre. some fun animation but i just didn't connect very strongly with Remy the Rat and the many storylines. Peter O'Toole is quite delicious as the heavy.More

Ratatouille is another brilliant Pixar outing that features a great story, wonderful animation, a varied cast of talented actors that brings the character to life, and it has some terrific humor. Pixar are truly wonderful in making some memorable animated feature films that really resonate with the viewer. Ratatouille is yet another fine picture that is highly entertaining from start to finish, and it is a film that is a must see for fans of previous Pixar films. Animated features are always great to watch because; they have a unique to quality to them that makes them a truly memorable viewing experience. With Ratatouille, Pixar have taken a simple idea, and crafted a thoroughly entertaining film experience that stands out. From start to finish, the film is entertaining, fun, and memorable because, the simple nature of the story, mixed with wonderful animation and great voice acting, you have a film that is a feat of animation. I love Pixar films, and it's hard to pick a favorite, because every film the studio has made has really stood out, but if you're wondering, Ratatouille continues the tradition of the studio to release quality films, and are a studio that have only made one lacking picture. Here, we have a film that is beautifully made, tells a simple, yet thoroughly engaging story that is never dull, and always amusing. Ratatouille works well, and is a picture that is brilliantly directed and is a film that will appeal to viewers of all ages. This is a superb animated feature, one that is yet another fine addition to Pixar's outstanding catalogue of great movies. If you want a fun, entertaining animated film, Ratatouille is a solid and safe bet to watch, as it has all the key elements that have made Pixar's films something to behold.More

Pixar's latest installment is a recipe of success. Ratatouille is bold and classy with the flare of European culture. Patton Oswalt's adventurous critter spices a flamboyant film with an interesting plot and dynamic delivery. 4/5More

Night Games (Fastback Horror) - Richard Laymon Horror Book Review
Horror books Review
I have never understood the chapbook industry. Paying a lot for a single short story just doesn't seem right. But, when I can find one used for a decent price, I might check it out.
This nice little tale takes on the classic theme of spending the night in a haunted house. Janice accepts a dare to spend the night in a house where the previous owner met an untimely end. She is determined to collect the $500 her friend Lyle has offered. What happens during the night and what Lyle's involvement may or may not be takes the story headlong into a creepy ending.
It would have been nice having an extra paragraph or two to explain a little more about Lyle's past games but for the length of the story it works quite well.
I wouldn't recommend paying a lot for this one but it is worth reading.

Wayne Dobson Doesn't Have Your Lost Cellphone
By editor
Good morning, I'm Renee Montagne with a message: Wayne Dobson does not have your cell phone. Many cell phones allow you to track them using GPS if they go missing. But the Las Vegas Review Journal reports that technical glitch has, for two years, directed some Sprint customers, who've lost their phones in Vegas, to the home of Wayne Dobson. Sprint says it's researching the problem. Meanwhile, Dobson has come up with his own low-tech solution, a sign on his door reading: No lost cell phones.

William "Bill" Renna '49, June 19, 2014. He was a Bronco Hall of Fame football and baseball player. He was an outfielder for the New York Yankees, Philadelphia / Kansas City Athletics, and Boston Red Sox from 1953-1959.
Renna was born to Christina and William Renna in Hanford, Calif., on Oct. 14, 1924. He graduated from Hanford Union High School in 1942 and attended USF before joining the Marine Corps and serving in the South Pacific. Renna returned from military service to become a two-sport star at the University of Santa Clara, playing outfield for the baseball team, and both fullback and center on the football team. His play on the gridiron earned him a spot in the East-West game in 1949, drawing the attention of the Los Angeles Rams; however, he chose to stick with baseball, learning under the guidance of Santa Clara's legendary coach, Paddy Cottrell.
"Paddy Cottrell was a bird dog [scout] for the Yankees," Renna said in a 2008 interview. "He used to teach us everything that was taught in spring training by the Yankees."
Bill later was inducted into the Santa Clara University Hall of Fame. He met his future wife Leronne (Roni) Richards, a student nurse at St. Mary's Hospital in San Francisco, as he was finishing his college career.
Cottrell tipped Yankees scout Joe Devine to his prized outfielder who signed Renna in 1949 to a contract for $5,000. His signing paid immediate dividends, as he hit an eye-opening .385 with 21 home runs for Twin Falls in the Pioneer League. His play impressed his Twin Falls manager Charlie Metro, who was a former major leaguer himself.
"He hit like heck up there, and they called him "Bull," because he was a big guy," Metro said in his autobiography Safe by a Mile. "He was a delight to have on the team."

Bob was born in Evanston, IL, in 1951 and was a life-long Cubs fan. He graduated from Miami University in Ohio and got an MA in mathematics from Cal Berkeley. He worked at SRI in Menlo Park for more than 20 years.
Bob's great passion was music. He loved his Beatles, his Gibsons, classes at the Fur Peace Ranch, and the music of the Rev. Gary Davis. His favorite hours were the times he spent playing with his wife Anne as The Warblers. Together they loved spending time with their friends at South Bay Folk, City Espresso, and at the Gibson Homecoming.
Dr. Robert James Parden died July 20, 2014, after a brief illness, at home in Saratoga surrounded by his family. He was 92.
Dr. Parden was a former professor and dean of the School of Engineering, 1954-1982.

John F. Dullea, S.J., 85, died Friday, August 1, 2014, at Sacred Heart Jesuit Center, Los Gatos, after a long illness.
Jack was born in San Francisco in 1929, graduated from St. Ignatius College Prep, and entered the Jesuit Order in Los Gatos in 1945. After a period of studies and teaching he went to Innsbruck, Austria, for his theological studies where he was ordained to the priesthood on July 26, 1959. He did graduate studies at the Gregorian University, Rome, where he earned a doctorate in Theology in 1963.
His assignments included teaching Theology at Santa Clara University, retreat director at the Jesuit Retreat Center, Los Altos, and parish work at St. Mary's Church, Ogden, Utah. He also spent a total of eleven years at the Jesuit headquarters in Rome in a variety of administrative positions.
In 1990 he moved into high school guidance work as college counselor, first at Bellarmine College Prep, San Jose, and then, from 2000-08, at Verbum Dei High School in the Watts area of Los Angeles. He served as Senior Priest at the Jesuit novitiate in Culver City before retiring to Sacred Heart Jesuit Center in 2010.
Jack was the brother of the late Fr. Charles Dullea, S.J., former president of the University of San Francisco. He is survived by many nieces and nephews.
Longtime Professor of Physics Carl Hayn, S.J. died at the age of 98 in Los Gatos on Oct. 21, 2014.
He was born July 13, 1916, in Los Angeles and graduated from Loyola High School. He entered the Jesuit novitiate at Los Gatos in September 1933. Following studies at Gonzaga University, Spokane, he taught physics and mathematics at Loyola High School, 1940-43 and engineering physics at the Army training program at Loyola University (Los Angeles), 1943-44. Theological studies were made at Alma College, Los Gatos, and Carl was ordained a priest in 1947. In 1955 he received his Ph.D. in Physics from St. Louis University where he worked in experimental solid state physics. Subsequently, he engaged in postdoctoral work at the Oak Ridge Institute of Nuclear Studies and pursued further studies in nuclear physics at Washington State University. Carl served as president of the Northern California/Nevada section of the American Association of Physics Teachers and published articles in The American Journal of Physics and The Physics Teacher.
Carl's lifetime (and much beloved) ministry was in the physics classroom at Santa Clara University beginning in 1955. He taught full time for more than 50 years, retiring in 2006 when partial hearing loss made classroom teaching more difficult. Devotedly and enthusiastically, however, he continued his daily trips to the physics lab to tutor students and to spend time with his dear colleagues. Carl's regular pastoral ministry included daily 6:00 am Mass celebrated in the Mission Church and priestly service to the Carmelite Sisters of Santa Clara, a community of which he was very fond. After his retirement he generously made himself available to the Santa Clara Mission Cemetery for funeral and burial services. In 2012 he moved to Sacred Heart Jesuit Center to undertake the ministry of prayer.
Carl's twin sister, Sister Mary Carolyn Hayn, CSJ, predeceased him.
We shall miss Fr. Hayn as teacher, colleague, minister, and brother to the Jesuit community. Together we recall the great gift of his long and full life.
Elizabeth "Betty" Moran, professor emerita in English, died on June 23 after a long illness. She was 95 years old. Betty joined the English Department at Santa Clara in 1963 as one of three women faculty at the University. She retired in 1994 and thereafter received emerita status.
Betty was a woman of "firsts" and made her mark at Santa Clara as a teacher, scholar and administrator. She was the first woman to gain tenure in the College of Arts and Sciences; was the first woman elected president of the Faculty Senate; was the first woman to direct the Grants and Fellowships Office and the Faculty Development Program; served as the first woman chair of the Affirmative Action Committee; and founded and directed the Teaching and Learning Center. As a pioneer in African and African-American literature, Betty was the first at Santa Clara to teach a course in African literature. Her persistent work to establish a chapter of Phi Beta Kappa at Santa Clara paid off in 1977 when we became the first Catholic institution west of the Mississippi River to earn a chapter.
Bahram Saghari, adjunct faculty in the Leavey School of Business, died on January 28, after suffering critical injuries from a tragic bicycling accident in 2011.

Prior to coming to Santa Clara, he worked at several Silicon Valley firms, including Oracle and Intel, as a software engineer. An avid bicycle rider and swimmer, he had been active in the bicycling community and was much loved by his students, friends and family members.

Mike Grehan | April 2, 2007 | Comments
Before you hit a conference to become an SEO expert, read this column. Show it to your boss, too.
One of the many interesting things about speaking at a lot of search (and related) conferences is getting the measure of where people are in the learning curve. A lot depends on the person who's been allocated the job of becoming the in-house SEO (define) guru. I've discovered many people who have other responsibilities within an organization are suddenly thrust into the world of SEO conferences and told, "We want you to become our search marketing expert."I feel sorry for a lot of the attendees I speak with. They've been told by their bosses to go to a conference and find out why their competitors always come above them on SERPs (define). And that's it. Then they simply have to go back to the office and repeat the formula. After all, it's only about putting keywords in special places on a page, isn't it?Relevant information retrieval (IR) on the Web is a much more complex task than that same retrieval is in a homogenous environment, such as a digital library. The late Gerard Salton's text retrieval work and his development of the vector space model worked perfectly in that homogenous environment. But on the Web, a heterogeneous environment in which anyone can publish content of any nature or quality, relying purely on a Web page's text as a clue to the page's relevance doesn't quite cut it.Back in the day, when search engines applied the vector space model as the primary factor in identifying relevant pages, keyword stuffing was just about all you needed to rank in the top 10. Of course, by the time Jon Kleinberg and Google guys Larry Page and Sergey Brin had developed hyperlink-based algorithms, things became a little trickier. No longer did old chestnuts work anymore, like creating tiny text stuffed on the page in the same color as the background. The priority was all about obtaining in-bound links.
Getting links from authority sites became the order of the day. It was all about link quality, not just quantity. Of course, you now had to get your head around the hubs and authorities idea Kleinberg came up with and, fundamentally, what PageRank is all about.
It gets worse. Just as you think you're getting a clearer picture, someone like me writes a column telling you why to ignore PageRank and even Kleinberg's HITS (define), if it comes to that. You see, both algorithms provide you with what link-based ranking is theoretically about. But neither actually work in the practical sense. Some shortcuts have to be taken.All of a sudden, the newbie at a conference is thrown into an entirely different world of science and disciplines. It comes as quite a shock sometimes, when I explain to conference attendees, that it's not just about downloading hundreds (or thousands or even hundreds of thousands) of pages and analyzing where the keywords are. And no, it's not just analyzing who links to your competitors and trying to get some link parity and neat anchor text.
I've written frequently about how this will become more of a major ranking factor. It's still the one that's most intriguing to me (as from my own experience, I can tell it's already being folded in). It's also why I've said many times textbook SEO is a dying art that will soon outlive its usefulness.I get IR with text and links. There's been a ton written about IR and network theory applied to the Web. My own library is stacked to the ceiling with textbooks on both subjects. But it's so much harder to get qualified information about end user behavior. he reason for that is it's almost invisible to us in the SEM (define) industry.
On one side, we in the industry are the content creators and have some knowledge and control. On the other side, search engines and researchers strongly guard end-user data information.
Is it a waste of time for someone to come to a conference expecting to get some simple answers? Well, if you honestly believe getting a top five ranking at Google is something someone can explain to you with a few PowerPoint slides about words on a page and links, the answer is probably yes.
B whether you care about the underlying factors in ranking mechanisms at search engines or not (as I definitely do), look at your competitors' overall marketing mix, not just their Web pages and linkage data. You'll get many more clues about why they have better rankings than by just looking at what appears to your boss to be the obvious.
That's the real reason I wrote this column: to protect the innocent. When your boss suggests you got to a conference and come back an expert, show him this column. Protect yourself by getting him up to the same speed as you before you hit the expense account.
If you think I make it sound like SEO could actually be a science, it's not. Neither is knitting. But you probably couldn't learn that in a day, either.

Commentary: Then they came for me
I wrote the below poem as a response to what is happening here in our republic because it leaves open so many questions that no normal person can truly begin to answer. What can only ask, what happened to us? What happened to America? The freedom that America was once known for has died; America fell ill 1871, and died on 9/11.
Poem: Then they came for me. . . .
First they came for the gun owners in Connecticut and New York by passing laws against the 2nd Amendment.
I didn't speak out because I wasn't a gun owner. I never read the Bill of Rights to the Constitution or took seriously the warnings by our Founding Fathers about tyranny or read the history of governments disarming their people under the guise of keep our children safe and general safety and what happened afterwords.
Then they came for the those who questioned the media or what the government said, and I didn't speak out because I believed what the media or government always said was true and never bothered to think for myself or to research, think critically to see if they're telling us the truth or a lie.
Then they came for those who questioned and stood up to the Federal government and President(who told us he is the change we can all believe in), because of their unconstitutional policies. I didn't speak out because I took the Federal government and President at their word to honor the Constitution.
Then they came for those the government considered extremists because the extremists believed in the Constitution and demanded our elected representatives honor their oaths and obligations. I didn't speak out because I never read the Constitution or was "too busy" to even bother to read the Declaration of Independence.
Then they came for the those who questioned why the police are now acting the like Nazis, shooting our family pets, our sick, and elderly. I didn't speak out because I was conditioned to believe, like sheep following the sheepherder, it would never happen here, in America, the police and government say they are here to protect us.
Then they came for me because I finally read the Constitution and woke up to what was happening around me, but by than now it is too late, there is no one left to speak for me!
Original Poem
First they came for the communists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist.
Then they came for the socialists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist.
Then they came for me,
and there was no one left to speak for me.

CBS 21 - Search Results
Cumberland Valley High School teacher under investigation
Reported by: Jesse Knutson
Were following a developing story out of Cumberland County as police tell us a teacher in the Cumberland Valley School District is under investigation for allegedly having sex with a student.
Weve learned theres an active search warrant relating to this case.
We have confirmed with Cumberland County District Attorney David Freed that the teacher in question is 11th Grade English teacher Emily Nesbit.
We went to Cumberland Valley High School looking for answers and students here say the rumor mill has been going crazy.
I was actually pretty shocked. I didnt think that this would ever be around in this area, commented a student.
CBS 21 News confirmed with the Cumberland County District Attorneys Office that there is an active investigation at Cumberland Valley High School regarding allegations that Emily Nesbit, an 11th grade teacher, had sex with a student.
Students we spoke to were surprised.
She was very nice, likeable, she seemed like shed do the right thing, but I guess not, another CV student stated.
Police have issued a search warrant for Nesbit to collect her phone and seek cell phone records.
The Cumberland Valley School District released a statement, saying in part:
When District administration learned on March 10, 2014, of allegations of misconduct involving a teacher, District administration immediately notified local law enforcement and the District Attorneys Office in accordance with the Child Protective Services Law. That same day, the employee in question was removed from the school building and placed on administrative leave pending the outcome of the investigation."
According to school officials, Nesbit resigned from her teaching position on Wednesday.
And while the rumors are stirring, many students are waiting to make judgments until they hear the whole story.
I have no idea whats the truth and whats not the truth, so I cant judge Mrs. Nesbit or anyone involved, one student commented.
At first I didnt really know, because there were so many rumors going around, something about it going on for years, different students. And its like; I dont know whats true and whats not, another told us.
Other students say in this day and age, its not a surprise that this sort of thing happened.
Kids our age, if theyre watching porn or something like that, its the same idea and same concept, you just dont see it happening as often.
The District Attorney said that a press conference will be held tomorrow morning at which time theyll release more information.
But for now the school says theyre just focusing on the health and safety of their students.

Gopher Alum Named Minnesota Twins Bench Coach
Oct. 22, 2012
Minnesota baseball alum and New Ulm, Minn., native Terry Steinbach has been named the Minnesota Twins bench coach, announced today by the organization. Steinbach, who held a 14-year Major League Baseball career, was a Gopher standout prior to his professional career.
One of three Steinbach brothers to play for the U of M, Terry lettered with the Gophers from 1981-83. In his tenure, Steinbach was a two-time first team All-Big Ten selection in 1982-83. Named the Big Ten Tournament's Most Valuable Player in 1982, Steinbach guided the Gophers to a Big Ten title, the first under head coach John Anderson. In his final season with the Gophers, Steinbach was also named the Big Ten Player of the Year in 1983.
Following his Gopher career, Steinbach was drafted in the ninth round by the Oakland Athletics in 1983. He made his professional debut on Sept. 12, 1986 and played until his retirement on Oct. 1 1999, as he played his final three seasons with the Minnesota Twins. During his professional career, Steinbach had 745 runs batted in, 162 home runs for a .271 career batting average. A three-time All-Star selection, Steinbach was also the All Star Game MVP in 1988. He helped the A's to three-straight American League pennants (1988-1990) as well as a member of the World Series championship team in 1989.

[HELP] Connect Win 7 Ultm - XP Pro SP3 Using LAN Cable
Greetings to all..
I'm a new member here. And also this my second day running my PC on win 7 ultimate. Not yet activated.
This last few hours i've got a lot of dizzy trying to connecting my old laptop with win xp into my PC win 7. And surprisingly win 7 use a new 'method' on sharing files with another computers.
Usually when i connect my 2 win xp pc, all i need to do is just setting up the IP addres for both pc and then plug up the LAN cable. Done, the xp connect themselves.
I did this one on my win 7. But it doesn't works perfectly. Both my pc and laptop were connected. i can see them on my windows explore network menu. But i can't browse the containing folder that shared on xp pc. And also on my win 7 pc.
Basicly, both my pc looks like already connected, BUT I CAN'T browse the shared folders that manually i set up to be share.
Plese help me how to connect win xp and win 7 ultimate properly.
Thank you.
Big regards.

Hi Raditz and welcome,

Google Search app Easter egg is finger-flicking fun
There's nothing better than finding a good Easter egg in an app, and that's what Buster Hein over at Cult of Mac did. If you have the Google Search app on your iOS device -- it's the app icon with the white lowercase "g" on a blue background -- then you can have all sorts of fun.
Just go to the colorful Google logo and flick any of the letters, and they'll move on the screen. Tilt your device, and they'll bounce and fall as if they're "real" physical letters stuck behind the glass touchscreen. Check out the video below!

Michael P. Murphy is an industrial real estate man, but the chief development officer of CenterPoint Properties says his company is transitioning from being a real estate investment trust to a real estate solutions company.
CenterPoint, which specializes in developing warehouse and logistics hubs geared toward importers and exporters, said competition in global trade today isn't between the companies themselves but between their supply chains. The importers and exporters with the leanest, most efficient supply chains are gaining the largest market shares.
The inland port is a key component of the supply chain strategy, certainly for large national retailers, but increasingly for midsize retailers and third-party logistics providers. Chicago is the epicenter of the inland port movement, but other cities in the interior, including Dallas, Memphis, Kansas City, Columbus, Ohio, and Atlanta, also are seeing an expansion of their inland ports.
Inland ports are located near population centers and are connected to seaports by excellent transportation infrastructure, including intermodal rail and highways, Curtis Spencer, president of IMS Worldwide, told the JOC's 2nd Annual Inland Port Logistics Conference this month in Oak Brook, Ill.
Retailers that locate their import distribution centers adjacent to an intermodal rail head are slashing their transportation costs by reducing the long-haul costs of moving containers from seaports to inland locations, and are cutting down on the "last mile" costs of moving product from the distribution facility to destination. The inland port is a key component of this supply chain strategy because "it's where the boxes are unloaded," Spencer said.
Reducing transportation costs is crucial. Transportation accounts for 50 percent of the cost of moving a shipment from China to the destination in the U.S. interior, Murphy said. The next highest component is inventory, at 21.8 percent. Labor, usually considered a major expense in such a labor-intensive activity as transloading, accounts for only 9.5 percent of the supply chain cost, and rent is even less at 4.3 percent.
Murphy uses these numbers to encourage importers and exporters to locate their warehouses as close to the railhead as possible. Even though labor and rent costs are higher there than at distant locations, the transportation costs saved moving the transloaded merchandise from the distribution warehouse to the destination, when multiplied over thousands of shipments a year, can be in the millions, he said.
Railroads are sending a similar message to cargo interests. Pat Kinne, general director of international intermodal marketing at BNSF Railway, said the rail carrier's goal is to push the intermodal leg of the move as far into the supply chain as possible, thereby reducing costs compared to trucking.
Reducing the long-haul cost between, say, Los Angeles and the Chicago area creates opportunities to expand the radius around the railhead that can generate imports or exports, Kinne said. Therefore, an imported container moving from Los Angeles to the BNSF yard at CenterPoint and transloaded into a domestic container or trailer can serve receivers more than 100 miles away, he said.
Although intermodal rail is generally considered most competitive over longer distances, such as the 2,000-mile move from Los Angeles to Chicago, rail carriers are becoming more efficient and are competitive over distances as short as 500 to 700 miles, said Ron Sucik, principal at RSE Consulting. The railroads spent $15 billion during the past five years on infrastructure, equipment and service enhancements, and they are becoming increasingly competitive over shorter distances, he said.

HP Laptop windows 7 will not boot up or will take 20 minutes
I have a HP lap top ( Pavilion dv7 ) windows 7
1 terrabite hard drive , intel core i7
recently if you say restart or shut down and then try to later on restart the computer it will act as if it is loading up , the screen goes from black to the lighter color the words will come up and even state that it is "Starting windows" and even have the little windows icon floating.. however it will not actually start up. I have done all the self tests that u can find in the help screen if I push esc when I first turn in it. (there is no 'safe mode)
Once out of 10 tries If I wait about 10 or more minutes on the starting up screen it will actually boot up all the way , however the very next time I stay shut down, restart , sleep , or hibernate the process starts over , waiting on a almost blank screen.
I have set the power options now to just never shut off or shut down or sleep or hibernate , also have it always plugged in so its not running out of power and also have a table/fan so it doesn't over heat as it did get hot ( I did not have a table/fan for the first year of having it.
Any idea's of what to do I contacted HP and they have suggested a new computer...

Dear Carrie: I opened a 529 account for my daughter two years ago. She's now 14, so we have four years before she starts college. The returns have been dismal, and I'm considering stopping my contributions. What do you suggest? Is this a good idea? --A Reader
Dear Reader: With the cost of a college education soaring, I can understand your concern. In fact, according to Education Secretary Arne Duncan, 3 out of 4 Americans think college is no longer affordable. Add to that the estimate from the College Board that 2011-12 costs for living and studying at the average in-state public university are up by 6 percent -- and will keep going up at least that much annually -- and students with your daughter's timeline could face a cost of $125,600 for four years at an in-state public school. A private university could easily be double that!
While rising costs are stimulating a lot of good national debate, some universities introducing programs to help a broader range of students, but there's no uniform solution in sight. Your smartest move is to keep saving. And to my mind, a 529 is still one of the most effective ways to do it. So before you make any changes, here are some things to think about.
529 plans have distinct advantages tax-wise. Because potential earnings grow tax-deferred, your money has a chance to grow faster. On top of that, withdrawals are tax-free as long as you use the money to pay for qualified education expenses, which typically include tuition, books, school supplies, and room and board.
There are other ways to save, of course. But a savings account, for instance, would have negligible returns with today's low interest rates, and a brokerage or custodial account has the same investment risk with no tax advantages. A 529 stacks up pretty well by comparison.
When it comes to returns, it's not really a question of whether a 529 account is an effective way to save but rather how the money is invested.
When you opened the 529 for your daughter, you most likely had to choose an investment portfolio. Generally, a plan offers a choice between a static portfolio and an age-based portfolio. With a static portfolio, the asset allocation stays the same until you make a change, which you can generally do twice per calendar year. With an age-based portfolio, the fund manager adjusts the asset allocation from aggressive to conservative as your child nears college age.
