Five things you should know about Dinamo Tbilisi for Spurs Europa League clash
Unlike some of the newer cash rich teams from the former Soviet Union, the Georgian side have a long history and proud tradition of producing quality players like Temuri Ketsbaia and Kakha Kaladze that have gone on to thrive in top European sides. With Tottenham facing a tricky Europa League trip on Thursday, live on ITV4 and itv.com, we take a look at the side AVB hopes will roll over ahead of the return next week.
1) Premier League maestro Georgi Kinkladze learnt his trade there. Anyone who enjoyed midfield mavericks like Scifo and Hagi in the eighties and nineties will also have had a soft spot for ball conjurer Kinkladze. He scored 41 goals in 65 games for Tbilisi before moving to Manchester City for £2m in July 1995, where he made over 100 appearances to become a Maine Road favourite. An unsuccessful switch to Ajax, where he had hoped to strike up a potent reunion with Georgian international team-mate Shota Arveladze, led into a move back to England and Derby County. Kinkladze showed sporadic magic between 1999 and 2003, but his career was on the wane and he hung up his boots eventually in 2007. He has since worked as an agent and sporting director.
2) Cardiff City were the opponents for the opening match of the now 54,549 capacity Dinamo Arena. 1976 was notable mainly for the massive summer heatwave in England, however back in the former Soviet Union it also represented the unveiling of a brand new stadium in Tbilisi. The Welsh side travelled over to help Dinamo celebrate the opening and promptly got spanked 3-0. The Arena soon became a fortress for visiting teams, especially in Europe, while the USSR national team also played several international matches there. The record attendance came in 1979 when 110,000 packed in like sardines to cheer Dinamo on to a 3-0 victory over Liverpool in the European Cup with the stadium refurbished in 2006 to become all-seater, halving the audience.
3) Dinamo's only European trophy came back in 1981. Not many people would have tipped the Soviet side for victory in the 1980-1981 Cup Winners' Cup, nevertheless they eased past Kastoria FC and Ireland's Waterford FC to reach the quarter-finals. West Ham were up next and Dinamo thumped four past the Hammers in the first leg to make the second leg a formality. Feyenoord were up next in the semis and Dinamo produced another powerhouse performance on home soil to win 3-0, but had to fend off a Dutch comeback in the second return leg to sneak through 3-2 on aggregate. FC Carl Zeiss Jena, who defeated Benfica in their semi-final, were their opponents at the Rheinstadion in Dusseldorf for the final with Gerhard Hoppe giving the Germans a second-half lead. Dinamo, though, were made of stern stuff and they hit back through Vladimir Gutsaev and Vitaly Daraselia to cap off their only wildly celebrated European trophy triumph.
4) Manager Dusan Uhrin Jr won the league and Cup double in his first season._ _There are ways to endear yourself to fans at a new club, however winning the domestic double is surely the best. The Czech tactician played for four clubs between 1984 and 1992, but a bad injury forced him to call it quits ahead of a managerial career that has seen him club hop around Europe. The 45-year-old looks to have finally found a home for his talents, 24 wins in 32 games last season with 88 goals scored a cracking return which saw Dinamo win the Georgian Premier League for the first time since 2008. His father Dusan Sr led the Czech Republic to the Euro '96 final, losing 2-1 to Germany.
5) Spaniard Xisco is the star man in an attacking 4-4-2 formation. Former La Liga journeyman Xisco had already tried his luck at Valencia and Real Betis between 2003 and 2009 before he had one last go at Levante. The winger helped them escape relegation on the final day, however was released and upped sticks to Georgia. It proved an inspired decision as he lit up the Umaglesi Liga in his first season before topping the scoring charts last season to fire Dinamo to the title. His cult status in Tbilisi is a lesson to many players who decide to stay as mediocre players in elite European leagues instead of trying their luck at superstardom in the minor Euro leagues. The 32-year-old can count on new signings Romanian Dorin Goga and Patrick Vouho from the Ivory Coast to help put Spurs to the sword alongside the native Georgian players.

An Englishman in Snow
Heavy snowfall blanketed parts of Britain last night as forecasters warned that treacherous conditions could lead to disruption on main road and rail networks.
I'm prepare for the worst, the skis are waxed, the tie tightly tied and the rather natty Fair Isle pullover has been found in the bottom drawer. Even in these difficult times there is no excuse to lower one standards and start wearing plastic clothing.

Affect of lightning in open water

The chance of getting hit by lightening is remote. In open water without any other high structures around the risk is probably higher, but 5 or 10X a remote risk is still an event that is unlikely to happen.
5 lotto tickets gives you a 5x higher chance of winning, but you would be a fool to quit your job on the strength of this increased chance.
I have been struck by lightening, but at anchor. This make sense, because I spend much more time at anchor than in open water.
The closest I have come in open water was a bolt that hit about 50 yards away. I was at the helm at the time and shouted down something like "God that hit the water only 50 yards away" (There may have been a couple rude words that I have edited out)
A friend who was a guest at the time (sheltering down below) said "Thats good It sounded closer than that"

From Ricky Ricardo To Dora: Latinos On Television
By Tasnim Shamma
Think Desi Arnaz on I Love Lucy, Freddie Prinze on Chico And The Man, Sofia Vergara on Modern Family. While Spanish has long had a recurring bit role on English-language television, it has slowly but surely become an integral part of the American soundtrack. Here's a look at a few highlights from the past six decades.

Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography/Hernandez, Francisco
|←Hermstaedt, Nicholas Piet
|Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography
Hernandez, Francisco
|Hernandez, Joseph Marion→
|Edition of 1900. See also Francisco Hernández de Toledo on Wikipedia, and our Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography disclaimer.
HERNANDEZ, Francisco, Spanish naturalist, b. in Toledo, Spain, in 1530; d. in Madrid, 28 Jan., 1587. He was physician to Philip II., and was sent by him in 1572 to Mexico to study the plants and animals of that country. Hernandez wrote a large number of works on the natural history of Spanish America, some of which are still in manuscript in the library of the Escurial. Among his published works is "Francisci Hernandez rerum medicarum Novae Hispaniae Thesaurus, seu Plantarum, Animalium, Mineralium Mexicanorum Historia cum notis Joannis Terentii Lineæi" (Rome, 1648). This appears to be the same as a similar work in Spanish, entitled "Plantas y Animales de la Nueva España, y sus virtudes por Francisco Hernandez, y de Latin en Romance por Fr. Francisco Ximenez" (Mexico, 1615). The title of the latter book indicates that it was at first written in Latin by Hernandez, and the Rome edition is an extract of the original work.

In the automotive and construction engineering and services industries, engineering activity has long been internationalized. However, in the automotive industry today, engineering workforces are increasingly being configured to develop global platforms, rather than to work on products targeting local markets. Construction engineering and services firms that operate globally have always required engineering help in the countries where projects are located. Today, overseas engineers are increasingly performing tasks related to U.S. projects. In general, offshoring of less complex engineering work is increasing in both the automotive and construction industries.
Finally, offshoring of research and development (R&D) to developing and emerging economies such as China and India is increasing rapidly in pharmaceuticals and some other industries. More than half of more than 200 U.S.- and Europe-based companies that responded to a recent survey anticipate that their technical workforces in China, India, and other parts of Asia will increase in the next three years (Thursby and Thursby, 2006).
FINDING 2. More and better data on offshoring and other issues discussed in this report, such as the effects on the engineering workforce and engineering education, are necessary for discerning overall trends. As has been pointed out in other recent reports, better U.S. and international statistics on trade in services and employment would give us a much better grasp of basic trends.
With the emergence of offshoring, a growing portion of the U.S. workforce, including engineers and many other services professionals, have become subject to international competition. For the United States to adopt policies that support continued economic vitality and ensure that the United States remains a premier location for engineering work, policy makers must have a good understanding of changes in comparative salaries, education levels, language skills, productivity and other trends, and the causes of those trends.
Unfortunately, current published estimates and projections on offshoring of engineering include significant uncertainties. McKinsey Global Institute (2005), for example, estimates that more than half of engineering jobs in the industries it analyzed could be performed anywhere in the world. However, it would be wrong to conclude that half of the 1.5 to 2 million U.S. engineers are in danger of losing their jobs in the next few years. Indeed, the U.S. engineering workforce is expected to grow by 13 percent between 2004 and 2014 (CPST, 2006), a substantial increase although smaller than the expected increase in the workforce as a whole. In addition, there are limits to how quickly India and China can improve the quality and increase the quantity of their engineering graduates.
Significant data gaps have prevented policy makers and the public from getting an accurate read on trade in services and offshoring (GAO, 2005a,b; NAPA, 2006; Sturgeon, 2006; etc.), and it may be some time before the most glaring deficiencies are addressed. One difficulty is that offshoring within companies is difficult to track through trade statistics. Another difficulty is that companies are reluctant to make information about their offshoring practices public. Thus industry-specific analyses will continue to be important sources of information but can only provide a snapshot of a rapidly changing phenomenon.
FINDING 3. Offshoring appears to have contributed to the competitive advantage of U.S.-based firms in a variety of industries, and the negative impacts of offshoring on U.S. engineering appear to have been relatively modest to date. However, the negative effects have been much more severe in some industry sectors and for some jobs than others.
Global disaggregation, a long-standing aspect of business models in several U.S. industries, has enabled U.S.-based companies in the semiconductor and PC industries to establish and retain global leadership. The key to long-term success for companies that offshore engineering activities is protecting the interface with customers and the resulting information flow, which feeds into product definition, high-level design, and sophisticated engineering tasks.
Cutting costs was the initial motivation for offshoring of services, including engineering, especially in IT-related industries. However, a major factor in the offshoring of R&D facilities to emerging economies, such as China, is the desire to establish a full-spectrum presence in a rapidly growing market. On the flip side, there has been significant "onshoring" of R&D and other engineering work in some industries as multinational companies based in Europe and Asia establish or acquire operations in the United States. Even some companies based in India and China are investing in R&D in the United States, mainly through acquisitions (see Cooney, this volume).
Although the inadequacy of available data makes it difficult to measure the negative impacts of offshoring on engineering jobs and salaries, we can say that the negative impacts have not been evenly distributed. It is logical to infer that, when certain types of routine engineering tasks are sourced in India or China, the U.S. engineers who performed that work lose their jobs. Even though new jobs may be created for U.S. engineers who perform higher level tasks and those who can move to other sectors, those new jobs do not replace the jobs that were lost. The negative individual and social impacts of mass layoffs in general, not necessarily in engineering, are described by Uchitelle (2006).
FINDING 4. Engineering education at the undergraduate and graduate levels has been a major source of strength for the U.S. engineering enterprise. Even today, engineers

WNYC Launches Public Insight Network to Explore Education
WNYC Radio launched its Public Insight Network (PIN) today, built on a service grown and powered by American Public Media (APM) and used by many newsrooms across the country. The initiative gives local newsrooms a direct link to people in their community and develops insights from people's lives, work and personal experiences.
WNYC is using the PIN to ask educators, administrators, and parents to weigh in as sources on topics, ranging from Chancellor Cathie Black's performance to potential layoffs for teachers. The input from these sources adds depth and understanding to WNYC's news coverage that a top-down approach might not reveal.
"Joining the Public Insight Network family gives us more direct access to people in the community with relevant personal experience that helps illuminate a story – and also gives them more direct access to us," said John Keefe, Senior Executive Producer of News. "Everyday New Yorkers can put themselves forward as experts in their own communities and help inform the way we report a story, and in turn, how our listeners understand an issue."

15 Ways to Packing Perfection
Travel like a pro with our easy tips for packing efficiently
By Kris Wetherbee
Scale back on shoes
One easy way to gain more luggage space? Reduce the number of shoes you bring along. Brown only packs one pair of flats and one pair of heels for every trip. "Both can be used to make pants, shorts or a dress casual or dressy," she says. When packing, place shoes toe-to-heel in the bottom of your luggage along the edge, and make the most of the empty spaces inside your footwear by filling them with fragile items wrapped in socks.

BJC HealthCare is a non-profit health care organization based in St. Louis, Missouri. It is the St. Louis area's—and one of Missouri's—biggest employers. BJC includes two nationally recognized academic hospitals - Barnes-Jewish Hospital and St. Louis Children's Hospital, which are both affiliated with the Washington University School of Medicine.
BJC HealthCare was created in 1993 when Barnes-Jewish Inc. merged with Christian Health Services to create a system consisting of a large urban teaching facility and a network of suburban community hospitals. In 1994 Missouri Baptist Medical Center and St. Louis Children's Hospital also joined BJC HealthCare.
In addition to operating 13 hospitals in Missouri and Illinois, BJC HealthCare operates BJC Home Care Services,[1] the oldest home care service west of the Mississippi, which offers hospice, home infusion, and medical equipment services; BJC Corporate Health Services, including BarnesCare,[2] an occupational health organization; BJC Behavioral Health, offering behavioral health services to children and adults in the St. Louis metropolitan area and in the Missouri counties of Washington, Iron and St. Francois;[3] and BJC Medical Group, which employs more than 300 primary and specialty physicians, nurse practitioners and physician assistants.
BJC HealthCare facilities consistently rank among the top health care institutions in the country.
Flagship hospitals -- both top-rated by U.S. News & World Report -- are Barnes-Jewish Hospital and St. Louis Children's Hospital, affiliated with Washington University School of Medicine.
Barnes-Jewish Hospital[4] is the largest hospital in Missouri with 1,228 beds and is known as the flagship of BJC HealthCare. It is the adult teaching hospital for Washington University School of Medicine and is one of three Level I trauma centers in St. Louis.
Barnes-Jewish was formed by the 1996 merger of two hospitals, Barnes Hospital and The Jewish Hospital of St. Louis, which were built in proximity to each other on the eastern edge of Forest Park. Barnes Hospital opened on December 7, 1914 at its current location on Kingshighway Boulevard. It was established by the bequest of Robert A. Barnes upon his death in 1892. Jewish Hospital was created in 1902 on a different site on Delmar Boulevard by the leaders of the St. Louis Jewish community. It moved to its current location two blocks away from Barnes Hospital in 1927.
The current facility houses the Charles F. Knight Emergency and Trauma Center, which is a 52,000-square-foot, 61-bed Level I trauma center that includes two full-body CT scanners and six trauma/critical care rooms. A helipad with private elevator access is also located on the roof.[5]
Barnes-Jewish Hospital also contains within the Center for Advanced Medicine the Alvin J. Siteman Cancer Center, which is a partnership between Barnes-Jewish Hospital and the Washington University School of Medicine. The Siteman Cancer Center is the only cancer center in Missouri which holds Comprehensive Cancer Center designation from the National Cancer Institute.[6]
Barnes-Jewish Hospital has earned a place on U.S. News & World Report's Honor Roll of America's best hospitals for the past 20 years and is home to 15 specialties ranked among the best nationally. In 2012, the hospital was ranked 6th in the country by U.S. News & World Report.[7]
Built in 1921 in Columbia, Missouri, Boone Hospital Center is a 394-bed hospital owned by Boone County and administered by BJC HealthCare. The facility is a Level II trauma center as well as a regional referral center excelling in heart services, neurology, obstetrics and cancer services.
Boone Hospital operates four ambulances in Boone County. They are located at bases in Centralia, the northeast side of Columbia, and on the Boone Hospital grounds. They, along with the University Hospital ambulance service, provide emergency care for the entire county.
In 2005, the hospital became the first Mid-Missouri facility to receive the Magnet designation from the American Nurses Credentialing Center, and it also was honored as one of the nation's top 100 hospitals by Thomson Reuters in 2010.[8]
Alton Memorial Hospital is a 206-bed hospital located in Alton, Illinois, serving the River Bend area of southwestern Illinois. The facility offers the area's only balloon angioplasty program, open MRI through Twin Rivers MRI Center, CT services, PET imaging, and nuclear medicine and other advanced medical imaging services, as well as cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation. The hospital also operates a 24-hour emergency center and the region's only hospital-based ALS ambulance service.[10]
Alton Memorial Hospital recently opened a new 76-bed patient care tower. The Duncan Wing houses the hospital's Surgical Care Unit (12 beds), Intermediate Care Unit (32 beds) and Medical Care Unit (32 beds). Six observation rooms also are available on the ground floor.[11]
Alton Memorial Hospital was also a recipient of a 2009-2010 Hospital Value Index: Best in Value Award by a Data Advantage LLC study.[12]
Barnes-Jewish St. Peters Hospital (BJSPH) is a 111-bed facility in St. Peters that serves St. Charles, Lincoln and Warren counties. The hospital has a 15-bed emergency department, as well numerous other patient services, including cardiac surgery and pulmonary services. In 2004, the hospital completed an $18.5 million expansion which included new Cardiology and Women's centers, in addition to the Outpatient Surgery and Endoscopy Center. Construction was also begun in 2008 on a two-story $28 million expansion project to add 64 additional patient rooms, a new inpatient pharmacy and medical office space to the facility.
Barnes-Jewish St. Peters also houses a satellite facility of the Siteman Cancer Center, which is a partnership between BJSPH and the Washington University School of Medicine.[14]
The hospital received a 2009 HealthGrades Outstanding Patient Experience Award for being in the Top 10 percent in the nation for patient satisfaction.
Clay County Hospital is a 22-bed hospital located in Flora, Illinois. The new hospital was built in 2000 and has a Level III trauma center, as well as a 20-bed medical/surgical unit. The facility also operates a fleet of three ambulances, two ALS and one intermediate, to serve Clay County, Illinois. BJC manages the hospital, which is owned by Clay County.
Barnes-Jewish West County Hospital (on the site of the former Faith Hospital) is a 108-bed hospital in St. Louis County, Missouri. The hospital recently underwent an $11.2 million renovation that included adding a new emergency department, updating operating rooms and renovating each patient room and public space. The campus consists of Washington University School of Medicine and private practice physicians. Barnes-Jewish West County Hospital is a member of BJC HealthCare and employs nearly 500 health care professionals.
St. Louis Children's Hospital is a 250-bed pediatric hospital that provides services to the St. Louis metropolitan area and a primary service region covering six states. The facility is the pediatric teaching hospital for Washington University School of Medicine. Founded in 1879, SLCH is the oldest pediatric hospital west of the Mississippi River and the 7th oldest in the United States.
St. Louis Children's Hospital is a world-renowned hospital that offers every possible pediatric specialty and sees more than 275,000 patients each year. The facility has performed more pediatric lung transplants than any other institution in the world, was the first hospital to administer insulin to a pediatric patient in the United States, and performed the first split-liver transplant on a child. The SLCH transport team, which covers hospitals primarily in Missouri and Illinois, is composed of a specially trained physician, a critical care nurse, and a paramedic, with respiratory therapists accompanying the team as needed, and can be en route within 30 minutes.[17]
In 2009, Parents magazine ranked St. Louis Children's Hospital #5 on its list of the 10 Best Children's Hospitals in the country. Also in 2010, the hospital was named by U.S. News & World Report to its Honor Roll of America's Best Children's Hospitals, as it has been for the past eight years.
Missouri Baptist Medical Center is a 489-bed hospital located at Interstate-270 and Highway 40/I-64 in West St. Louis County. Missouri Baptist Medical Center was founded in 1886 and joined BJC HealthCare in 1994. The hospital offers a wide spectrum of medical and surgical services, specializing in obstetrics, heart services, cancer services and orthopedics.
In addition to a 20-bed emergency room for adults, MBMC has a full-size emergency room just for kids, with nine beds plus six more for longer term, in-patient care. The ER is staffed with nurses and physicians who specialize in pediatric medicine.[19]
In 2010 Thomson Reuters named Missouri Baptist Medical Center a "Top 100" hospital for the second year in a row.[20]
Missouri Baptist Medical Center has also received high marks by HealthGrades, a health care rating organization.

There were times when he could not read the face he had studied so long, and when this lonely girl was a greater mystery to him than any women of the world...Charles Dickens
I've also seen that great men are often lonely. This is understandable, because they have built such high standards for themselves that they often feel alone. But that same loneliness is part of their ability to create.Yousuf Karsh
Being prime minister is a lonely job... you cannot lead from the crowd.Margaret Thatcher
Being the boss anywhere is lonely. Being a female boss in a world of mostly men is especially so.Robert Frost
Be good and you will be lonely.Mark Twain
Only in a house where one has learnt to be lonely does one have this solicitude for things. One's relation to them, the daily seeing or touching, begins to become love, and to lay one open to pain.Elizabeth Bowen
In cities no one is quiet but many are lonely; in the country, people are quiet but few are lonely.Geoffrey F. Fisher
All men are lonely. But sometimes it seems to me that we Americans are the loneliest of all. Our hunger for foreign places and new ways has been with us almost like a national disease. Our literature is stamped with a quality of longing and unrest, and our writers have been great wanderers.Carson Mccullers
It is strange to be known so universally and yet to be so lonely.Albert Einstein
The time you feel lonely is the time you most need to be by yourself.Doug Coupland
The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be.Anne Frank
All great and precious things are lonely.John Steinbeck
You cannot be lonely if you like the person you're alone with.Wayne Dyer
It's lonely at the top; got no company.Wiz Khalifa
Who knows what true loneliness is - not the conventional word but the naked terror? To the lonely themselves it wears a mask. The most miserable outcast hugs some memory or some illusion.Joseph Conrad
Fiction is love and hate and agreement and conflict and common adventure, not lonely musings on have-beens and might-have-beens.A. B. Guthrie, Jr.
"Our dead never forget this beautiful world that gave them being. They still love its verdant valleys, its murmuring rivers, its magnificent mountains, sequestered vales and verdant lined lakes and bays, and ever yearn in tender fond affection over the lonely hearted living, and often return from the happy hunting ground to visit, guide, console, and comfort them."Suquamish

"I ordered this card with the pearl finish and it just looked wonderful. Also used a closeup picture of my kid. Everybody loved it!"
"I have gotten so many compliments on this card. They look great and are very easy to change fonts and colors. I believe these were the invites that didn't ask for a time, so be sure to add that in."
"The cards are beautiful but the color is different than I shown online. The section with the wording appears blue online but is a more greyish/purple in print. Please fix this for future customers. I am kind of upset about it but theres nothing that can be done now. They have to be ready to mail tomorrow. Thank you"
"When I received these cards in the mail (early), I was happily surprised to see what good quality they were. Everyone I sent them to said how cute they were."
"I, along with the invited guests, loved the look and quality of this invitation. It perfectly captured what we wanted to present in a colorful and creative way."

When you check into a hotel this holiday season, thieves may be checking out your credit card.
Recent studies show hackers steal credit card data from hotels more than any other industry.
Watch for more on this story on 7NEWS at 10 p.m.
xxxxxx says the ABC affiliate TheDenverChannel.com
"It's not if it's going to happen, it's when it's going to happen," said John Sileo, a Denver resident who had his credit card information stolen on a recent business trip. "The Driskill Hotel had an entire database of customer information stolen. Mine was one of them."
Little did the hackers know, they were messing with the wrong man.
"I saw it after a dollar. I saw it after a single purchase at a gas station," said Sileo.
Sileo travels all over the country as a professional speaker. His expertise: identity theft.
"Because of the downturn in the economy, a lot of industries have stopped upgrading their software," he said. "So they're very open for being hacked at any point."
A recent study shows the hotel industry is especially open for being hacked.
Ryan Jones, a data-security consultant with Trustwave, has been watching a steady increase in hotel hacking.
"The main reason is they're such a central hub for where people run their cards," Jones said.
Trustwave found that out of all the hacking cases they investigated last year, 38 percent involved hotels, well ahead of financial services (banks) at 19 percent and retail at 14 percent.
Destination Hotels and Resorts, headquartered in Englewood, is just one of the major chains that got hacked.
This summer, they told guests at 21 hotels across the country that their credit cards might be compromised.
Jones said when guests book a room, they usually use their credit card to reserve it.
The information is then held for the bar, room service and incidentals.
He said that makes it easier for an employee or hacker to break into the system and steal your data.
Christin O'Donnell, president of the Colorado Hotel and Lodging Association, said the hotel industry is very aware of the issue and making changes.
"Even in a tough economy, most of the hotels have been working to shift some of their operating expenses into updating their networks and their privacy screenings," said O'Donnell.
But Jones said he hasn't seen any sweeping, industrywide changes, and Sileo agreed.
"They're not doing it because it costs," said Sileo.
That is why he set up a credit card solely for travel expenses with alerts sent immediately to his phone.
"I got a text on my phone that you just spent a dollar at the EZ Pay or whatever it was," said Sileo. "I knew that I hadn't. I had it shut down probably within 15 minutes of the time that it happened."
To protect yourself from hotel credit card hackers:
•Use a credit card, not a debit card
•Dedicate a separate credit card for all travel expenses.
•Be vigilant; Set up automatic account alerts so you'll know when purchases are made.
•Consider rotating your cards occasionally. Ask your credit card company for a new account, so if anyone is holding your information it won't be valid forever

Vanguard Launches Bid to Lead Broad Market
Vanguard launched nine ETFs on Sept. 9 targeting the style-box matrix based on S&P indexes with growth, value and blend versions of the large-cap S&P 500, the S&P Mid-Cap 400 and the S&P Small-Cap 600. All will compete with existing SPDRs and iShares products based on the same indexes.
Some analysts may brush these off as "me too" products, but Vanguard knows how to play "me too" better than anyone. Most Vanguard products on the market fit this description, yet the company has quietly entrenched itself as the third-largest ETF provider, with more than $110 billion in assets.
Vanguard introduced its first two ETFs in 2001, then sat quietly until January 2004 when it introduced 14 more. Only a licensing disagreement kept the 2004 batch from tracking S&P indexes. So Vanguard brought them out based on MSCI indexes.
Now, 34 years after the introduction of the Vanguard 500 Index Fund (VFINX), the ETF version has arrived. According to a Vanguard article, the new Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO) features an expense ratio of 0.06%, the lowest expense ratio in the industry for an ETF based on the S&P 500 Index or any other large-capitalization domestic benchmark. All nine of the new ETFs are eligible for commission-free trading by Vanguard brokerage clients. The new ETFs:

Rutland Town dealing with theftsBy Brent Curtis
STAFF WRITER | December 13,2012A large number of vehicles and even the municipal transfer station have been targeted by thieves recently in Rutland Town.
Vermont State Police and local law enforcement have issued multiple warnings in the last week about car break-ins on Town Line Road, Park Lane and Post Road Extension in Rutland Town.
Police also reported that similar break-ins were reported on Cedar Lane in Mendon.
Monday, police reported the latest break-in the office at the Rutland Town Transfer Station where someone damaged a door and a window to break in. State police said the burglary occurred at some point between Saturday afternoon and early Wednesday morning.
Police said they recovered evidence at the scene.
Transfer station manager Tony Flory said the thieves did a lot of damage including about $500 worth of damage to the door and window but found little of value inside.
They ransacked the whole place but there wasnt much for them to take, Flory said.
Checks made out to the town for about $600 were taken, Flory said, but he and other town officials said the checks could not be cashed since they were already made out to the town.
Im thinking whoever is doing this is looking for drug money and not thinking straight, said Stan Rhodes, chairman of the Rutland Town Select Board.
Break-ins arent new at the transfer station or at the municipal pool next to it in Northwood Park.
Flory said there were four break-ins at the transfer station last year while a break-in at the school last spring resulted in the theft of about 15 checks, Rhodes said.
The town installed surveillance cameras around the pool area this fall to deter further break-ins, Rhodes said.
For residents living in the Post Road Extension and Town Line Road areas, Rutland Town Police Chief Edward Dumas said the best way to deter thieves from breaking into vehicles is to take away any incentive to break into a car.
Dont leave anything of value in your car. Its like a calling card to thieves, he said. For people in the town, its not something they see as much as people in the city. Theyre not used to having their cars broken into.
And Dumas said all sorts of items could have value. In one case, he said, a pair of sweaters that a man bought for his wife were stolen and returned to the store where he bought them so the thief could claim a refund.
Asked if police believed that the break-ins were being carried out by the same person or people, Dumas said that was still unclear.
Anyone with information about the break-ins can call Dumas or the state police at 773-9101.

EVENT In its 15th year, the Chinmaya Madurai's Gita chanting competition has created a record with 10,000-plus registrations in and around the city, writes SOMA BASU
For the past five years I have been attending the Chinmaya Mission's Gita chanting
competition for school students in Madurai. I can't recite the shlokas but what attracts me is the mass chanting each year inside the auditorium of Setupati High School just before the district-level contest is thrown open.
The 500-plus children from five to 14 years sing with a devotion that comes to them naturally. What is both pleasing and surprising is the vocal technique they uniformly apply even after learning and practising separately and coming from different schools and backgrounds.
Every word is intoned. The recurring wave of pitch and rhythm is a musical landscape of sound. Parents and teachers also join in and after a point the aspect of competition fades. The fact that 85 per cent of the children are eliminated at the preliminary level and only 25 per cent of the finalists make it to the super-finals loses significance. What matters is that so many children show their willingness to learn and participate, and their intense reverence. They put their hearts into the recitation. The effort put in by each and every child, irrespective of religion, is evident.
This year's round opens this Sunday on a high note. More than 10,000 students enrolled at the preliminary school round. The Acharya of Chinmaya Mission Madurai, Swami Sivayogananda, is obviously elated. He likens the reach to newspaper circulation and readership. "In every house or classroom where a child is learning, another individual is teaching and many more are listening. And," he asserts, "all are subconsciously learning."
After he started the Gita chanting competition in Madurai in 1998, for the first three years he single-handedly ran the show, visiting schools, selecting children and judging the finalists. In the first year, he approached 36 schools in and around the city, personally explaining to the institution heads how the "song of God" is germane to people of all temperaments and ages. It evoked 1500 responses.
The event gradually became one of the most popular annual events of Chimnaya Mission. More schools participated from within the city and neighbouring Rajapalayam, Melur, and Sivaganga districts. In subsequent years, the number of students participating from each school also increased. Such was the response this year that Swamiji was forced to restrict the number of schools to 22 as the total registrations crossed a whopping 10,000.
"We have penetrated into grassroots. We give opportunity to new schools and some old ones too who have a good performance record," he says. He hopes to reach 100,000 students in the coming years. "Though I am continuing with the competition format to keep the interest alive," says Swamiji, "the dearth of Sanskrit teachers in the city makes the task difficult."
From 2001 he has been coaching housewives interested in learning the shlokas and has built a team of 56 volunteers who now judge the contest. But their number is woefully inadequate for the number of contestants. Yet the exercise has been conducted without interruption for 14 years. The cost of the event is taken care of by regular sponsors who chip in for the various prizes and certificates.
A highlight of the finals is the feast for the entire gathering -- students who qualify for the district round, their parents and teachers. Everybody is fed before the results are announced. Says Swami Sivayogananda, "We can as well announce the results and feed only the winners and their families. But I feel so many students put in their sincere efforts. Learning to chant the Gita is more important than to win prizes. The day has its own beauty."
Sanskrit is a divine language. It produces beneficial sound waves that can calm the mind and also increase memory power, says Swamiji. Many participants of previous years have told him how by chanting the Gita, their thinking has become refined. That is the best compliment he gets. He also points out that winners over the years have been from different communities and religions and that by learning to chant and understand the Gita, every individual can make a difference to his or her life.
This year he received a surprise letter from the Head Master of Setupati School, who wrote that, because of the mass chanting by pure and innocent minds, he feels there is a good vibration within his school compound and believes that it is helping improve results.
"I am answerable to my conscience," says Swamiji, "and am happy people are genuinely taking interest and feel the benefit of chanting. Our children should not lose the opportunity to learn the dynamic text."

Memento movie trailer - starring Joe Pantoliano, Stephen Tobolowsky, Guy Pearce, Carrie-Anne Moss. Directed by Christopher Nolan. Genre: Mystery-Suspense
Rating: R
Leonard is an insurance investigator whose memory has been damaged following a head injury he sustained after intervening on his wife's murder. His quality of life has been severely hampered after this event, and he can now only live a comprehendable life by tattooing notes on himself and taking pictures of things with a Polaroid camera. The movie is told in forward flashes of events that are to come that compensate for his unreliable memory, during which he has liaisons with various complex characters. Leonard badly wants revenge for his wife's murder, but, as numerous characters explain, there may be little point if he won't remember it in order to provide closure for him. The movie veers between these future occurrences and a telephone conversation Leonard is having in his motel room in which he compares his current state to that of a client whose claim he once dealt with.
This is a complex story about Leonard Shelby (Guy Pearce), a man whose ability to make new memories is damaged when he is struck in the head while confronting two drug dealers who are attacking his wife at their home in the middle of the night. His wife and one of the drug dealers are killed during the attack. Leonard then devotes his life to finding and killing the second attacker. Before finally achieving his goal, he is manipulated by others who use his condition for their own purposes.
The movie alternates between color and black and white sequences. The black and white sequences proceed in chronological order, but the color sequences proceed in reverse chronological order. The forward black and white scenes and the reverse color scenes alternate until they meet in the middle of the story at the end of the film.
In the two disc DVD set, the second disc contains the movie in chronological order. To play this version of the movie: (1) select the clock icon; (2) select the answer 'C' to every multiple choice question; and (3) arrange the tire changing steps in reverse chronological order (3-4-1-2). The movie will then begin to play (with the credits first - in backward order). Some functions (fast forward, chapter skip, etc.) are disabled.
This is a synopsis of the story as presented when put together in chronological order. It is not the plot order presented in the film.
The story starts in black and white. Leonard Shelby wakes up in a room at the Discount Inn puzzled as to why he is there. The phone rings and he speaks with an unknown caller. He tells the caller that he suffers from anterograde amnesia, a condition which makes him unable to create new memories. He describes the condition by detailing the story of Sammy Jankis (Stephen Tobolowsky), who had the same problem.
Leonard describes how one must have a system of notes to deal with the problems and a drive to use them. Leonard says he has the drive that Sammy never had and the viewer sees Leonard

Hi everyone. I'm Sarah. Tonight I went to my 6 year old sons Parent/Teacher conference. NOT good. :( He learned NOTHING in Kindergarten well they put him in the IEP program in K hoping to figure it out and help him. He is now in 1st and still, literally NOTHING!!! He doesn't know his numbers past 10 (by sight, he can count up to almost 100) and I think he knows MAYBE 7 of the alphabet (again by sight, he can say them perfectly). One day they can test him on something, he will know it and then if they re-test him a couple of hours later on the same thing, hes lost it and doesn't know it any more. He shows no signs of ADD or ADHD at all. He has no issues what so ever, except in learning. Hes fine socially, hes a very calm/mellow/relaxed child, but just can't seem to focus/absorb what is being taught to him. This is very scary for all of his teachers and ESPECIALLY ME!! I am scared to death, especially since because he is in this IEP program that will NOT hold him back. Meaning he is going to be pushed forward to 2nd grade and still not even at a K level. My fear is that as it gets harder he is going to get more frustrated and then give up one day :(. Well one of the teachers said something about "Silent ADD/ADHD" tonight. Supposedly she had a little girl a few years ago that was exactly like my son, didn't learn a drop of anything and then finally her mom took her to the Dr., they diagnosed her with "Silent ADD/ADHA" put her on meds and then she was a totally different child and started learning everything, and quickly.
So my questions are, 1 has any one every heard of this "silent ADD ADHD"? If so how did the child behave before diagnosed? and 2 do any of you use herbal meds over Dr. proscribed? If so what? I am very interested because I would love to get some and try them out and just see if we see a difference in him.
Any help is greatly appreciated. :)
~Sarah, a sad/scared/lost Mommy to a very special little boy that I don't want to see get lost in this mess.

Apple's recent victory over Samsung in their patent infringement case had to be one of the most closely watched intellectual property cases ever, and trial graphics played a decisive role in shaping juror and public opinion. Whereas the Apple case involved primarily a "look and feel" that is not terribly difficult for laypeople to reach their own conclusions about, IP cases generally involve extreme technical detail and subjects that can be exceedingly difficult for a nonexpert to understand. For this reason, litigation graphics are needed and developed for patent and other IP matters more than almost any other field of law. Cogent Legal has produced an interactive guide to show our approach and share our ideas for developing litigation graphics for intellectual property cases. In today's information-saturated world, jurors and others expect to obtain information visually and interactively. Graphics, such as the samples you'll find in this guide, enhance oral and written arguments so attorneys can present information in the most effective and engaging way possible.

Maine Woman Decides to See How Many Dogs, Birds and Other Animals She Can Fit Inside Her Mobile Home
You've heard of the tale of the lady that loves to have a bunch of cats, but this just takes it to a whole new level.
You've heard of the tale of the lady that loves to have a bunch of cats, but this just takes it to a whole new level.
Always here at Fun 107 we appreciate a good a funny animal video, it just breaks up the work day nicely..
Fun 107 has really gone to the animals lately! Last week, I posted about the funny sounds goats make. Now, Not surprisingly, one has a duet with Taylor Swift
There are so many area organizations that have wonderful pets just waiting to become part of a loving family. If and when you consider adopting a cat or dog, please contact one of these agencies.
After Teddy the talking porcupine correctly predicted the winner of the 2012 Super Bowl, we decided never to scoff at a fortune-telling animal again. So, when we heard that a clairvoyant camel had peered into the future and determined the winner of this year's game, we were all ears.
Warning: our obsession with baby animals is unstoppable. Can you honestly blame us, though? We're already suckers for anything fuzzy and adorable, but when it comes in a tiny version, we're just sucked in automatically. Remember miniature puppies or itty bitty kittens? Our point exactly.
There are tons of animals that are highly underrated and go unnoticed way too often. Do baby anteaters or giraffes ring a bell? However, there is one animal that tops the list-- hedgehogs.
Here's another gem of a story out of Florida, A woman who shared her home with close to 300 animals, which the state SPCA took away Sunday, is reacting to the incident after being arrested.
Another amazing video! I don't know how they were able to get this cute cat to get so close to the ocean but this is incredible! If you have not seen this yet it's a little cat on the back of a boat reacting to dolphins in the water.
The other day, I was out and about hanging with friends. You know how it is, just rolling around looking for something to keep us occupied. When we stopped at a stop sign that was four way, and crossing in front of us was Buffalo.

- 0Jun 11, '99 by Joe,RNSomething I forgot to tell you! Would you believe that some of the patient care was done by the other patients assigned to the unit? I saw a man shaving another and assumed he was a friend or relative. He was a patient assigned to the next bed! Such kindness, brings tears of compassion to my eyes, such neglect of care, brings tears of anger. Just goes to show you, vets are indeed special people.
- 0Jun 12, '99 by elizajoe, you're right about your observations. When I first worked at a VA and saw 5 beds / 5 pts in room , I thought how inthe world can they get their rest. But, fortunately it usually works out for the best. Pt's, (men) (vets) more often than not 'take care of one another'- willingly. They watch out for each other in a way I've never experienced in 14 years of public nursing, nor do we see this with women...???interesting, huh?
back to staffing methodology; the va system is so poor but makes the 'numbers look good', wheras when i worked in public, the staffing methodology reflected pt care better, however the 'staffing'numbers were more deficient.

Maui Land & Pineapple Company, Inc. (NYSE: MLP) today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement for the sale of The Kapalua Bay Course and Maintenance Facility to TY Management Corporation, a Hawai'i corporation, for $24.1 million.
