PROVIDENCE, R.I. — The pointy stalagmite-like cones of hair jutting out of Jake Trescot's skull made him hard to miss Saturday after he had taken care of his top priority at the annual summer block party known as Foo Fest.
Trescot, a 17-year-old interested in anarchism, attended Foo Fest for the specific purpose of visiting the Providence Anarchist Book Fair, which has been part of AS220's downtown fundraising event for nine years.
One reason for the anarchist concession, according to a promotion on the arts organization's website, is to allow a forum where those who come for the festival's music, art and food can also have some limited exposure to certain "radical ideas" that they aren't likely to encounter at the typical New England summer fair.
Trescot had come for the anarchy and ended up checking out some concert events and public art, too.
He was among a collection of artsy people, from actor Joaquin Phoenix to a fifth-grade hip-hop singer, who brought their artsy personalities to the 2014 installment of Foo Fest, which was expected to draw 5,000 to 6,000 people to Empire Street over a period of 12 hours.
For Trescot, who says he doesn't consume alcohol or use drugs, anarchy is about eliminating government interference so that people can be "personally responsible" for themselves.
The high school student and street guitarist says that people are often surprised to hear him talk about personal responsibility and seem to expect something else based on his haircut.
"I'm a punk," says the teen. "Punk stands for a lot of things that people don't realize."
Inside the book fair, anarchists and others hawked pamphlets and publications on behalf of various social struggles and movements.
Hazel Hill, 24, a Providence resident who identified herself as a "sex worker," and her husband, Daniel Gorringe, 32, an illustrator from New Zealand, handed out materials that they said are from a global workers' union, the Industrial Workers of the World.
One item, titled "How to Fire Your Boss," begins with this: "The indignity of working for a living is well known to anyone who ever has. Democracy, the great principle on which our society is supposedly founded, is thrown out the window as soon as we punch a time clock at work."
At a neighboring table, some young women presented pamphlets on certain feminist ideologies.
Another pamphlet, titled "Anarchist Parenting," has a decorative cover sheet printed with the realistic image of a baby whose nose and lips are pierced.
Out on the street, Foo Fest offered lots of opportunities for individuality.
People of all ages picked up paintbrushes and added new colors to the body of an old Volkswagen Rabbit.
The car-painting venue was courtesy of Yarrow Thorne, founder of The Avenue Concept, a local arts organization involved with lots of projects, including efforts to ward off graffiti by adorning the undersides of highway overpasses with beautiful murals.
Laurent Lejeune, 34, a Boston artist who says he plans to sell representational and abstract works of art in New York City later this year, picked up a brush.
He dabbed it in some red paint and swirled something that looked like a face on the hood of the Volkswagen.
"I'm just having fun," he said.

Date: June 13, 2013
by: Roger Drouin | City Editor
Planner Andres Duany came to Sarasota in 2000 with one goal in mind: to try to make Sarasota a vibrant, walkable downtown.
In 2000, Duany, who many consider the father of new urbanism, and his team of planners spent 10 days in Sarasota working on a blueprint that became an ambitious list of more than 40 separate projects. That blueprint eventually became the city's Downtown Master Plan.
And, according to operations manager of the Downtown Improvement District John Moran, when Duany returns June 18 and 19 to speak about Sarasota's future, he will likely speak about some of those same issues he addressed in 2000. Some of them include walkable streets; connecting downtown to the bayfront; and encouraging redevelopment in close-to-downtown districts.
Some of the projects have been accomplished; others gave way to a lack of funding or political support. Still others remain in the planning phase.
Those who know Duany know that when he returns, he won't mince words.
Attracting, and retaining, younger residents
During Duany's Sarasota visit next week, he will speak about the importance of Sarasota becoming an attractive city to young people.
"The greatest danger for Sarasota is for it to be bypassed by the younger generation," Duany said.
The planner will be speaking at a dinner event June 18, and at a joint meeting of the Sarasota City and Sarasota County commissioners at 1:30 p.m., Wednesday, June 19, at the Sarasota County Administration building, 1660 Ringling Blvd.
Duany said cities need "constant new blood," and places such as Mobile, Ala., and Miami are good examples of cities attracting young people through job creation. Mobile, Ala., recently brought in aircraft manufacturer Airbus, which created a 1,000 jobs two miles from the city's downtown.
"Imagine Sarasota County trying to get an Airbus factory," Duany said. "There would be environmental studies for the next decade.
"It is hard to get things done in Sarasota," said Duany.
Duany said local graduates of the Sarasota's three colleges should be able to stay in Sarasota, find good work and get involved in city life.
"(Entrepreneurs) should be building affordable housing," Duany said. "(Sarasota) needs to lighten up and let the young do things."
Missions accomplished
✓ Downtown grocer
One of Duany's biggest priorities was to bring in a downtown grocery to accommodate the growing residential population; serve as an anchor for a revitalized downtown; and promote the walkable, new urbanism Sarasota sought to embrace. With the high cost of downtown real estate, Whole Foods eventually partnered with the city to build its market on city property and opened in December 2004.
"The market is the first thing you need to have in a downtown, and the hardest one to get," Duany said during a June 7 interview with the Sarasota Observer.
✓ Lemon Avenue Mall
A bricked Lemon Avenue with wide sidewalks was another high priority project. Lemon Avenue was torn up and redone in 2004. A seashell fountain feature anchors the street and Lemon Avenue is filled with Farmer's Market stands and market shoppers every Saturday.
"I call it Piazza Limone," said downtown advocate Diana Hamilton, who attended all of the planning charettes when Duany was last in town. "It made it more hip."
✓ Single-lane roundabouts
Duany listed several roundabouts on his priority list, including a pair at Ringling and Pineapple Avenues and Ringling and Palm Avenues. The goal was to make those intersections more pedestrian friendly. Two new roundabouts at those locations opened to pedestrians and traffic in June 2012.
✓ Parking garages
The Master Plan highlights three locations for parking garages. So far, the city has completed one on Palm Avenue, which opened in December 2010. The city is now in the planning phase for a second public mixed-use garage on State Street. Duany suggested the city purchase the parcel of land at the corner of Orange Avenue and Laurel Street for a third parking garage. Michael Saunders & Co. currently owns that property.
Duany wanted to see up to four stories of retail or residential liner uses at the bottom of any parking garage the city built. The Palm Avenue garage has only one floor of commercial space.
Missions not accomplished
✗ Bayfront connectivity
Duany's top priority was to connect downtown to the bayfront, said Dale Parks, a Sarasota architect who worked for the local firm that partnered with Duany to create the master plan in 2000.
Duany championed the concept of a roundabout at Gulfstream and U.S. 41. The project remains part of the city's long-term plans for a string of 10 multi-lane roundabouts on the bayfront, but commissioners would like to see a pair of roundabouts farther north completed first before construction starts on the proposed circles at the busier intersections such as U.S. 41 and Gulfstream Avenue.
✗ Paid parking
Sarasota installed paid parking meters in April 2011 and yanked them out in March 2012.
In 2000, Duany told city officials that parking meters on Main Street was a necessity if Sarasota wanted "to grow up."
"I hope it comes up," Duany said about parking meters. Any renewed effort to put in meters has to be "on a block by block analysis," Duany said.
✗ Fruitville Road
Duany desired to connect downtown to the Rosemary District and Gillespie Park, just north of Fruitville Road. He suggested adding wide crosswalks and narrowing traffic lanes so people could cross into the Rosemary District. What has been done so far? "Zilch, nada, nothing," noted Hamilton.
But during an April capital improvements meeting, commissioners discussed a concept to would narrow a downtown stretch of Fruitville Road from four lanes to two lanes.
✗ Rosemary Neighborhood Square
Another 2000 proposal was to replace an aging storage facility with a public park in the heart of the Rosemary District.
"The city should offer to swap nearby city properties for this location," reads the city's Downtown Master Plan. The storage facility remains in that location.

- You know those two single lane roundabouts are so successful in promoting pedestrian traffic that pedestrians have become invisible. I've yet to see a one. How's that for top down planning. What any municipality needs is unfettered private development by entrepreneurs bent on maximizing their dreams and profits for their benefit and for those of the consumer. If they succeed, we all benefit. If they fail, someone else will come along with something better.
Downtown Sarasota changed for the better when the Ritz Carlton was built by private interests filling, in their own minds, a void in luxury accommodations and nightlife. And it worked. You don't need a Duany to figure this out nor do you need him to tell you downtown high end supermarket is necessary. When the Ritz was completed, downtown blossomed--a sleepy downtown was converted into a nightlife mecca of restaurants and night clubs.
Forget urban planning. It's best left to individual entrepreneurial spirits seeking to fulfill their own dreams and visions.
Give Duany a free one way bus pass out of town from that godawful Lemon St. bus station. Be done with him once and for all. And get rid of that bus station in the middle of downtown. I'll bet some public central planner was responsible for that abomination.

The Size Of Government
Let's start with President Carter.
On December 31st 1976 (Not Carter's term yet), total nonmilitary personnel was 2,883,000. By December 31st 1980 the end of his term (minus a month), the total in nonmilitary personnel was 2,875,000.
Federal government nonmilitary employees shrunk by 8,000 employees under Carter.
On January 21st, 1981, President Reagan started with 2,875,000 nonmilitary federal employees.
By the end of Reagan's terms the total number of nonmilitary federal employees was 3,113,000. That is an INCREASE of 238,000
Let's move on to President George H.W. Bush.
On January 20th, 1989, total federal nonmilitary employment was 3,113,000
by the end of his only term, President George H.W. Bush had 3,083,000 federal nonmilitary employees on the books. That is a REDUCTION of 30,000 employees.
President Bill Clinton came into office with 3,083,000 and by the END of his TWO TERMS he reduced the number of Federal employees to 2,703,000. That is a reduction of 380,000 federal employees.
Now finally, President George W. Bush came into office with 2,703,000 nonmilitary employees and by the time his terms were through, the total nonmilitary federal employees on the books were 2,756,000, which is an INCREASE of 53,000 employees.
The small government, lean and mean political party, seems to be the Democratic Party. President Clinton reduced the size of the federal government's nonmilitary employees by OVER 10%.
The "so called" small government President Reagan INCREASED the nonmilitary size of government by almost 10%.
In fact, Democratic president Bill Clinton reduced the size of the federal government employee size to PRE- REAGAN levels.
Clinton left office with 2,703,000 and Reagan started his term in 1981 with 2,875,000
The Reagan conservatives, in fact the entire GOP TODAY are trying to frame President Obama as a big government liberal but again, the numbers don't lie.
By the end of 2010, the United States STILL has less employees on the books than we did back in 1980 even though the population has grown from 226,545,805 to approximately 330,000,000 in 2010.
We have 35,000 less nonmilitary employees under President Obama than we had 30 years ago.
So it comes to mind that those who claim to be Reagan small government conservatives and blame Democrats for growing government are either lying to the American people or are themselves willfully ignorant.

Your use of numbers is an interesting viewpoint on the issue of big government. However your opinion seems a bit mis led? Big government has always been the programs that have been put into place that widens the scope of government influence over the American public. Whether an administration has 100,000 more employees doesn't really matter depending on whether or not they are encroaching on the citizens freedom of choice. Programs like social security, Medicare, the patriot act, Obamacare, the entire department of homeland security, and many more are what makes a government "big" not simply the number of employees. A small governmen is one that has the smallest scope of power over the American public and follows the constitution strictly as far as the role of government. And yes the number of employees may differ under these two styles of government, however they are not the defining characteristic to either of the ideologies. So therefore they should not be used to define an administration "big" or "small"ReplyDelete
Most of what government does is protect the honest citizens from the unethical activities of the unethical citizens. If you want to have a smaller government, then get your fellow citizens to stop treating others with disrespect. Every time a giant manufacturer dumps a bunch of chemicals into the drinking water, every time some stock broker takes bigger risks than he should with other people's money, every time someone cheats on their taxes, etc, they are in essence, disrespecting their fellow citizens. To keep these people in line, our government must develop agencies and programs to deal with these disrespectful people, and to stop them from committing such acts in the future. Sadly, though, there's always someone else coming along trying to find some other way to cheat the system, and our government has to find a way to deal with them. And so it is that we have the size of government that we do.ReplyDelete
I like the relationships shown about government employment vs. president. Homeless Guy, I hope that you will complete the picture with Bush2 and Obama levels of government employment.ReplyDelete
Beside the negatives of war are several items that impact the cost of living; the huge growth in cost of medicine since Johnson's Medicare and Medicaid and his "war on poverty" and others tacked on below.
Homelessness is brought about by the fact that the cost of living exceeds a given person's ability to pay his cost of living.
The huge increases in the cost of medicine increased the cost of living.
Probably the bigger factor is the increase in cost of living brought about by the government paying people for not working. This principle should apply to those not working because they are receiving unemployment or because they are on welfare.
I believe we must limit unemployment pay to two weeks and totally end welfare.
To allow people to work we must reduce hurdles that keep persons from working such as the minimum wage and other bad law hurdles.
The safety net for handicapped could be provided by the Churches and Charities.
Add a few no brainers; end foreign aid, bring the troops home from 700 bases around the world and quit paying federal employees at a rate that is double the private sector.
Take these actions and we can begin to export as much as we import; and our economy will blossom as it did prior to when we became progressive and lost our way.

Owner back with 4-foot-long iguana found in Farmington, says animal opened door
Updated On: Aug 24 2012 05:54:22 PM EDT
Farmington Public Safety officers were called to the 23000 block of Frederick Street in the Warner Farms subdivision near Farmington Road, south of Grand River Avenue, to investigate a report of a large reptile roaming the area.
Officers found a mature female iguana resting on the front lawn of a residence.
The iguana appeared to be healthy. The iguana was transported to Oakland County Animal Control in Auburn Hills.
The reptile's owner claimed it Friday evening. The owner said the iguana normally stays in an enclosed sun porch. However, on Friday, the animal somehow managed to open the door and get out, on it's own.

Windows 7 Home Premium x64 SP1
Report: Half of all exploits target Java
Once upon a time, Microsoft was the favorite target of malware developers. As Microsoft improved the defenses in its software, though, cybercrooks moved on to easier pickings. Adobe was a prime target for a while, but Adobe followed Microsofts lead and made its software more secure as well. According to data from the 2014 IBM X-Force Threat Intelligence Quarterly Report, the favorite target is now Java.
There are two things that put the bulls-eye on an application or platform. The first is distribution. Attackers may be able to develop an exploit for some obscure software that is barely used, but what would be the point? If a malware developer is going to invest the time and effort to create an exploit, he or she wants it to have the greatest possible pool of potential victims.

This is one of those dishes I never tire of. If you prefer not to fry the eggplant, try making this with grilled or baked slices.
1. Prepare the sauce, if necessary. Then, trim the tops and bottoms off the eggplants. Cut the eggplants crosswise into ½-inch-thick slices. Arrange the slices in a colander, sprinkling each layer with salt. Place the colander over a plate to drain for at least 30 minutes. Rinse off the salt with cool water and dry the slices with paper towels.
2. Line a tray with paper towels. Heat about ½ inch of the oil in a large skillet over medium heat until a small piece of eggplant sizzles when added to the pan. Add just enough of the eggplant slices to fit in a single layer without crowding. Fry until golden brown on one side, about 3 minutes, then turn them over and brown on the other side, about 2 to 3 minutes more. Drain the slices on the paper towels. Cook the remaining eggplant slices in the same way.
3. Place a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spread a thin layer of tomato sauce in a 13 × 9 × 2–inch baking dish. Make a layer of eggplant slices, overlapping them slightly. Top with a layer of mozzarella, another layer of sauce, and a sprinkle of grated cheese. Repeat the layering, ending with eggplant, sauce, and grated cheese.
4. Bake for 45 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbling. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

Series Description
Wonder Woman was a 60 minute fantasy series on ABC for its first season and then on CBS for the 2nd and 3rd seasons. Following a dogfight with a Nazi Pilot, a United States Air Corps Major crashed on Paradise Island, mysteriously hidden in the Bermuda Triangle. The Amazon race of women there had super strength and powers so they decided to send someone back with the Major to help defeat the Nazis. Princess Diana found a way to ensure that she was the one chosen and that started the saga of Wonder Woman!
In the second and third seasons, Wonder Woman moved 30 years into the present day (1970s). Wonder Woman left Paradise Island to return to the real world. She found that there were still plenty of situations in the world that needed her help!

Wonder Woman Trivia
When Wonder Woman moved from ABC to CBS in September of 1977, the title of the series was technically changed to "The New Adventures of Wonder Woman" but most fans continued to refer to it as simply, "Wonder Woman".
On television, Wonder Woman lost her powers if her belt was removed. This was not true in the comics.
Amazons live a long time, but did Wonder Woman ever tell her age? Well, in the first episode on CBS, "The Return of Wonder Woman", she told Steve Trevor that she would be 2,527 years old on her next birthday.
Cloris Leachman ("Phyllis") played the role as Diana's mother, Queen Hyppolyte in the Wonder Woman pilot. Carolyn Jones (The Addams Family), and Beatrice Straight both played the role during the regular episodes.
Both pilot episodes and the 1st season of Wonder Woman took place during World War II just like in the comics. For its second season Wonder Woman moved to another network and they changed the timeline to the 1970s to update it to something more familiar to modern audiences! Wonder Woman had worked with Steve Trevor in season one and after the change, she worked with his son, Steve Trevor Jr. "Like father, Like Son" took on new meaning because both Trevors were played by Lyle Waggoner!
The reason that two pilot episodes were filmed was that the first one really stunk! That accounts for the title of the second pilot "The New Original Wonder Woman". The producers wanted to be sure that the public would know that it was different from the first pilot. Actually, there was a third Wonder Woman pilot filmed in the 1960s but it was so bad that it never aired. "The third time's the charm" though and it went on to be a big success!
In the first pilot, in addition to Cathy Lee Crosby (That's Incredible) being cast as Wonder Woman, Kaz Garas played Steve Trevor and Ricardo Montalban (Fantasy Island) appeared as Abner Smith.
In the comics, amazon bracelets were made of Amazonium. On television, they were made of Feminum.
In the comics, Diana would spin her lasso around herself to change into Wonder Woman. On the television show, she would simply spin (herself). They also added the "exploding circle of light" around her in the 3rd regular episode titled "Beauty on Parade". Before that, her "Diana" clothes seemed to dissolve off first, then her Wonder Woman costume would materialize giving the impression of brief nudity. That was considered to be a bit too much for prime time television in 1976!
In the comics, Steve Trevor had blonde hair but during the time that Lyle Waggoner (who had dark hair) was on television, they darkened the comic book charachter's hair too!
Only four people ever rode in Diana's invisible plane. They were Diana, Steve, Drusilla and a Nazi pilot. The Nazi pilot was unconcious at the time though.
Theme Song
Title: "Wonder Woman"
By: "Norman Gimbel and Charles Fox"
Wonder Woman, Wonder Woman.
All the world is waiting for you,
and the power you possess.
In your satin tights,
Fighting for your rights
And the old Red, White and Blue.
Wonder Woman, Wonder Woman.
Now the world is ready for you,
and the wonders you can do.
Make a hawk a dove,
Stop a war with love,
Make a liar tell the truth.
Wonder Woman,
Get us out from under, Wonder Woman.
All our hopes are pinned upon you.
And the magic that you do.
Stop a bullet cold,
Make the Axis fold,
Change their minds, and change the world.
Wonder Woman, Wonder Woman.
You're a wonder, Wonder Woman.

Even when the cast of The Middle is away from the set, they can't stop acting like a family. Patricia Heaton (Frankie Heck) gabs with her TV daughter, Eden Sher (Sue), about shopping. Neil Flynn (Mike) bonds with TV sons Charlie McDermott (Axl) and Atticus Shaffer (Brick) over who's the best shot during their on-set basketball games. We sat the close-knit crew down to swap stories about everything from the first time they met to their favorite Mexican veggie.
TV Guide Magazine: Did you guys immediately click?Atticus: It wasn't instantaneous. The show's creators set up a day [early on] when we all just sat and got to know each other.Patricia: We did that? Was I there? I don't remember!
Charlie: We met in the production office.Neil: It's strange. You're barely introduced to someone, then you're on camera and have to pretend to be in love and that you've known them all your life. Now we spend so much time together, we have developed relationships.Patricia: Like the last shot we did yesterday. We were in the car together, and I forgot that everyone could hear us. We were talking about people who pronounce the "l" in "almond," "palm," "calm"... And just laughing our heads off. We concluded that you shouldn't pronounce it, much to Neil's chagrin, since he's been pronouncing it all his life. That's probably why he's not married.Neil: I didn't realize how much I was turning off prospective wives. Who knew?
TV Guide Magazine: No family can live in harmony all the time. What bugs you about each other?Patricia: Well, Neil pronounces the "l" in "almond"....Neil: I used to not pronounce the "l" in "wolf." I was 25 when I learned about that. "The boy who cried woof."Patricia: My woof likes alllmonds!>Charlie: Eden eats jicama. I don't like that.Neil: Is that the white stuff?Charlie: It's like compressed oxygen.Eden: It is not! It's the sweetest vegetable.Patricia: Crunchy and juicy!Charlie: This debate's been going on a long time.>Eden: Producers and writers have gotten involved.
TV Guide Magazine: Do the conversations ever go beyond vegetables?Patricia: Every once in a while, we look up from our Angry Birds and ask how Egypt is doing. Then we go back to our Angry Birds. And I have my PlayStation. I have to go to Charlie for advice since I'm a newbie.Eden: They talk about it so intensely you'd never know they were talking about a video game. They talk about killing people.... "Is he still dead? Oh, no, you have to go in that room with the FBI agent who hates you!"Charlie: It's real life.TV Guide Magazine: What have you learned from working together?Atticus: You really learn something new every week.Patricia: I learned Atticus has a great Scottish accent.Atticus: I don't know how I picked it up. Maybe because I saw Braveheart and loved it so much.Neil: My sister just told me we're related to William Wallace.Patricia: Who is Irish?Neil: Scottish. Watch the movie.Patricia: But you're Irish!Eden: I learned one of Patty's phrases. When she gets a direction she'll say, "Got it!" Not just once [but] over and over: "Gotitgotitgotitgotitgotit!" So I've started doing that.Patricia: I've learned that Neil does a great Gary Busey impression. I try to get him to do it every chance I get.Charlie: Have you seen that sports-drink video Gary Busey did?Neil: Someone paid him to endorse a product?Charlie: It's funny. He's a crazy lawyer.Patricia: Gary Busey plays a lawyer? That's genius, actually. It's good to know that even if you go crazy, you can still have a job in this industry. I should have done that earlier.
TV Guide Magazine: Have you started acting more like your characters?Patricia: It's interesting that they wrote this show without ever having met us. Atticus did the original pilot. He's the only survivor of that one. I think he actually killed off all the other actors. He looks sweet and innocent but....Charlie: Just go watch The Unborn.Eden: I don't know if I've learned anything from Sue... Maybe [that] if you wear a giant sweatshirt for multiple weeks, someone might think you're pregnant.Charlie: That's the rumor I found online.Eden: Someone asked, "Why is she wearing that all the time? She must be pregnant."Neil: Eden isn't a lot like Sue but if you lob a football toward her, her inner Sue will come out.Patricia: Or a Frisbee.Eden: Or anything.Neil: She will act as if you've thrown a live cat at her. It happened just yesterday. With a basketball.Eden: They told me I couldn't eat lunch until I made a basket.Patricia: Needless to say, she hasn't eaten since yesterday.
TV Guide Magazine: The show is doing well, but are there changes you'd make if you were in charge?Neil: I think an alien should crash into our house, and we keep it. Otherwise, nothing's missing at the moment.Eden: I would add more jicama.

I put the wrong bend in the door gasket first time. Be careful of the bend on the bottom right and left. Re did the gasket and all is well. The door latches more smoothly than before. The only problem I had was putting the panel back on. I have a new hip and squatting for a time becomes problematic. Would do it again!!!

Thursday, April 24 10:18:53
International retailers are beginning to focus their attention on prime locations in Cork City Centre again, according to property consultants, Savills.
The firm, who have been appointed to handle the sale and letting of a number of properties on Patrick Street - Cork's main thoroughfare - say they expect a number of high-order retailers to rejuvenate the street this year.
Peter O'Meara, Director at Savills Cork said, "Stabilisation has returned to the retail sector in Ireland and there is now a slow but steady improvement in trading conditions. This has not gone unnoticed - a number of international retailers have expressed an interest in several high-end retail units in the city centre and we expect to see a commitment from a number of them in the coming months".
There are currently a number of vacant units on Patrick Street, however, Mr O'Meara said that the majority of these are due to leases expiring, and that there is now the opportunity for retailers to take advantage of more attractive lease terms.
"The current rate of vacancies would be a concern if there was nobody interested in taking the space. But with flexible leases now on offer, we are seeing top international brands showing a strong interest in what Cork has to offer, which is a huge opportunity to attract new, high level brands to the City."

Zulekha Heart Care
From joint replacement to sports medicine, treatment of osteoporosis or fractures and much more, Zulekha Hospital provides the best expertise in the whole GCC. Our team of highly skilled Orthopaedic surgeons perform surgical procedures including the most current arthroscopic and reconstructive techniques like major joint replacements, arthroscopies and much more.
Clinical excellence in the following orthopedic surgical procedures:
A gradual wearing away of the cartilage results in exposure of underlying bone, reduction of joint space and friction at the exposed surfaces, altering the mechanics and creating a gnawing pain with every movement. Knee Replacement surgery is performed to relieve pain and disability caused due to arthritis and to help resume normal activities in the knee.
Severe knee pain that restricts everyday activities such as walking, climbing stairs and getting up from chairs. Severe knee pain while resting. Knee inflammation and swelling that does not improve with medication and rest. Knee stiffness-inability to bend or straighten the knee.
A total knee replacement is a surgical procedure whereby the diseased knee joint is replaced with artificial material. The knee is a hinge joint which provides motion at the point where the thigh meets the lower leg. The thigh bone (or femur) abuts the large bone of the lower leg (tibia) at the knee joint. During a total knee replacement, the end of the femur bone is removed and replaced with a metal shell. The end of the lower leg bone (tibia) is also removed and replaced with a channeled plastic piece with a metal stem.
Hip Replacement Surgery
Hip replacement is a surgery that helps in restoring normal activities by replacing the arthritic surfaces with highly polished metal cups and pins.
Pain when bearing weight on the affected hip Limping Limitation of movement Limb Length Discrepancy
During a hip replacement surgery, the surgeon replaces the head of the femur and acetabulum with new, artificial parts. The new hip is made of materials that allow a natural gliding motion of the joint. The parts used to replace the joint come in two general varieties: cemented and uncemented. Cemented parts are fastened to existing, healthy bone with a special glue or cement. Hip replacement using these parts is referred to as a "cemented" procedure. Uncemented parts rely on a process called biologic fixation, which holds them in place. This means that the parts are made with a porous surface that allows the patient's own bone to grow into the pores and hold the new parts in place.
Shoulder Replacement Surgery
Shoulder Replacement Surgery is performed to relieve stiffness and pain that prevents one from performing basic activities of lifting objects, combing hair, dressing etc. Shoulder Replacement surgery gives greater range of motion and allows one to return to normal activities. The main cause for shoulder joint pain or stiffness is arthritis, both rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. Other reasons include sports injuries, fracture in the shoulder and failed replacements.
Deep ache within the shoulder joint that worsens with activity or motion. Grinding and grating noises when the shoulder is moved. Shoulder catch, lock, and grab. Difficulty in performing simple daily activities like opening a cupboard, raising the arms, dressing etc.
Shoulder resurfacing and replacement in case of severe arthritis. In shoulder replacement surgery the parts of the bones that rub together are resurfaced with metal alloys and high density polyethylene inserts. The common painful conditions of the shoulder like impingement, A-C joint dysfunction, rotator cuff pathology, calcific deposit, instability and bursitis can be treated by arthroscopy and arthroscopy assisted surgery. For shoulder fractures, minimal and less invasive techniques are used.

The Arthur Ravenel Jr. bridge over the Cooper River in Charleston, South Carolina with an amazing sunset sky just after sundown. This modern suspension bridge in Charleston looks incredible when it is all lit up in the evening, and is even more dramatic if you are lucky enough to catch a great sky behind it.
wow stunning shot..the lighting is perfect
Thanks Gary!
– Dave Allen
It's a global trend to see these type of arches on bridges and they are soooo wonderful to see from the old ones. Beautiful capture and nice temp. choice on the white balance.
Thanks, I tried to keep the white balance true so there was a mix of colors with the blue in the sky. It looked good warmer too, but then you lose all of the other colors that were present in the scene ;-)
– Dave Allen
Stunning shot, fabulous capture.
Thanks so much Gary!
– Dave Allen
Superb subject, I love the inter play of electric and natural light.
Thank you!
– Dave Allen
Wow, what a great shot. The lighting is wonderful.
Nice long exposure of a pretty scene!
Wow this is fabulous, I go there quite often is a beautiful bridge. What a great capture love the lighting
What a stunner, Dave!! Insane!
i love all your work Dave! amazing folio!!!

I've lived in Hawaii since 1976. I have always lived on the Diamond Head side of the island.
In 2007, I was invited to dinner at my friend Ken's home in Kailua.
I looked forward to a leisurely drive through the Koolau mountain range, towering some 3150 feet in some areas above the valley floor, to Kailua....in 'the country.' No matter how many times I make this drive, I am struck by the diversity of the island and the breathtaking view when you emerge from the tunnels in the mountains and see the view of the ocean and northeast side of the island. I drove through the little town of Kailua and turned down a long driveway framed by lush Hawaiian plantings. I immediately felt the privacy of the property.
My first impression as I walked into the large entry room was the relaxing feeling of this lovely, open Hawaiian home. As I was shown around the home and property I remember remarking to Ken the house had a calming and peaceful presence.
The first night I spent in the home, with the ceiling fans slowly turning and the windows open, the sound of the ocean lulled me to sleep. I awoke to the tropical birds singing and was struck by the quietness of this side of the island and the neighborhood.
Julie purchased this house in 2011
Three years later, in April of 2011, I had the opportunity to buy the home. I love that the home has so many private areas, where people can feel alone, but be together on one property...out by the pool or in the spa, sitting in the garden area, relaxing in a bedroom with the windows open and the fan slowly turning or with the air conditioning cooling the room, relaxing in the large entry room while reading on the day bed, cooking in the large kitchen, or relaxing in the beautiful living room on the Hawaiian Punee (day bed) enjoying the beautiful Hawaiian gardens through the large windows. It is the perfect Hawaiian open air style home for multi generational families who are meeting to enjoy a vacation in 'paradise.' Imagine all this plus a beautiful white sandy beach with azure colored water only a 3-5 minute walk away! I enjoy sharing my home with my guests who are visiting the beautiful Hawaiian Islands!

3k IMO is about right
Hi there, new here, and hoping to get some input from people more knowledgeable than me!
A primary school I work at is looking to update their aging server system, and tasked me in some preliminary investigation into what we could do with both hardware and software, and get some idea on cost. Ive done a little investigating so far so I will detail what Ive got.
Currently we have separate curriculum and admin networks. 3 server machines, 1 for admin domain, 2 for curriculum for redundancy. these are all Acer/ Altos G330 Mk2's running Windows server 2003.
There are maybe 100 systems connecting to this, a mix of laptops and desktops with anything from XP through to windows 8. There are also 30 iPads.
The school is also looking at getting maybe 50 new laptops, or a mix of laptops/desktops and some more iPads.
Now the school is not very big, and has a limited ICT budget of course, but will be flexible if I come up with a plan that they are sold on.
I don't see us buying 3 brand new pieces of hardware to replace the 3 aging server systems, and think it would be best to combine these into a single network. There are only around 4 machines that actually use the admin network.
It has been suggested that I could buy a single beefy machine with plenty of upgrade potential. Install server 2012. Copy over and run both current 2003 domains in VM's temporarily. Mash the ram and HDD space etc of the 3 old systems and use as redundancy backup. This would allow me to setup and test the new system on the side with minimal pain, and cut over without changing to much of the existing system (Its only me there at the moment, and for a few hours a week only). This would have the system running faster and more stable with updated hardware to begin with. then as the school can afford it, buy the CALs necessary to eventually cut over to a completely server 2012 system.
Does this sound reasonable? The only issue I can see, is the hardware needed to support this being quite expensive.
I have been quoted so far a HP ProLiant DL385 G8P, 3x1TB HDDs. Server 2012 with 5 CALS for around 9k AUD.
I guess I am looking to find out, does this upgrade path sound sensible? Is the system quoted overkill? Is it likely I could do any reasonable upgrade for around 5k AUD (I know most of you are from UK so I think thats closer to 3k GBP)? This is simply so I have a basis for selling this idea to the school. Lastly, is there any hardware you guys would recommend that I could checkout and seek quotes for?
Thanks a lot for anyone who reads this! Any help would be great
3k IMO is about right
Now, everything is running great, you're backing it all up using one of several solutions (several can be had for under $100 per host). Then your host server goes down, which could happen for any number of reasons. Now you have all three servers down, and none of your existing servers are probably capable of acting as a HyperV host (if they are correct me here). Now, you're really down and either have to wait until its fixed (could be days) or have to quickly find (buy) another server somewhere while the whole network is down in the meanwhile. I'm not going to endorse that route for obvious reasons.
You can buy a decent server for 5k that could act as a HyperV host. The problem is that you really need two of them so you have redundancy and load balancing. Or, you could buy three decent new servers and forgo the VM route for around 7k - they don't need to be as highly spec'd because there are three of them. You are stating that you will have close to 200 clients on the near future, so if you go cheaper than that you'll be up the creek without a paddle I reckon. We also haven't talked about the server that will act as a backup server. Now, this could be a decently spec'd desktop PC with sufficient disk space and Gigabit NIC if you already have one or you might be able to repurpose one of the existing servers. You'll need a backup server and software no matter what solution you go (virtualised or physical).
Virtualisation is not always the best solution especially in smaller environments, I think that your environment is big enough to warrant virtualisation, but you really need at least 10k to implement it successfully and safely and it sounds like the school is scrimping in its ICT spend. If you really are that cash strapped, I would contact the guys at Scorptec to see what they can build you in your budget, you'll likely get more bang for your buck than going through HP, Dell, etc. You might also look at some decent refurb or ex-demo gear (Grays online, eBay). If I were you, I would go back with a plan that covered:
- Two servers big enough for HyperV hosts that can run all of your servers (overspec them by at least 30% to account for increased usage with additional clients), that means a minimum of 4-core Xeon or AMD, 16-24GB RAM, RAID5/6 storage (7200RPM)
- Software licenses for the servers
- HyperV backup software
- Backup server and storage (might be able to repurpose existing equipment, if not budget $1,000 for this at least.
I reckon you need at least $11,000. 5K isn't going to cut it unless you buy refurb or you'll end up with a subpar system that has no chance of coping with any growth or node failures.
I'm here in the Southeast suburbs of Melbourne so if you have questions just let me know.
Take a look at some of these barebones server units and load them up with the drives and CPUs that you need. I think it will be best value for money. The guys at Scorptec know their stuff and are very responsive. They can help you build a system to meet your requirements to a budget.
I've been thinking about this.... I'm not sure you do need two, if your business continutity planning is robust, and SLT accecpt that an element of risk is required to avoid paying for redundacy of provision.
Consider that with server based hardware you can get 4hr response times on hardware warranties.
Anecdote: I've never had a server actually fail. Bits of one, yes, but never a whole box. You do need proper Windows Server certified hardware, with redundant disks (RAID 5/6) and a UPS to minimise the risk. And something like this: Veeam Backup & Replication Cloud Edition for VMware and Hyper-V would negate the need for backup tapes and manual rotation.
I'd also be tempted to suggest that you don't P2V migrate the existing servers. If you can wait for a few months until 2012 R2 is out, build a new clean environment and migrate the services into that - this will give the primary the best value from the work. It also is supposedly easier to integrate with the Microsoft Cloud, which is certain a direction that a primary should be looking.
I am assuming that you've got a "reasonable to good" internet link.

If money is really tight, see what you can get on refurb. I know from a performance point of view a HP Proliant G5 380 has enough grunt to serve your needs for less than £1000 (GBP) and at that sort of price you could afford two. You would need to be quite fussy about the CPU though as Hyper-V has certain requirements that older machines may not meet.
I act as the Network Manager at a medium size Primary School (400+ children). We haven't bothered with redundant servers. We are running the latest version of 2008 having upgraded from 2003. The old 2003 server was powered up and connected for a while but only offered load-sharing - which proved unnecessary from a performance perspective - and not true standby capability so I turned it off and have successfully been crossing my fingers ever since.
Since we are not running air traffic control at Heathrow or the signalling at Clapham Junction and we are seriously strapped for cash, redundancy in the server side of the network is a luxury we are doing without.
I do agree with the P2V, I would be reluctant to do that and would suggest a fresh build. I wouldn't do it on 2012 though, and I wouldn't do it on 2012 R2 until its been out for a couple of months. Personally I would go with the tried and true 2008 R2, but there are some advantages with 2012 for you in a small environment with HyperV.
You can only do what you can do.

Our job is to convince the execs why taking that position is a bad one. Here's an idea. Imagine you pulled the plug for a day or three? Just what wouldn't the school be able to do, what would they still be able to do? Write a risk assessment showing the impacts that would actually occur, include worst-case scenarios. Present that to the execs and watch them squirm as reality hits them of what the impacts are. If you determine the impacts are low, fine. For us, they would be serious and crippling. The more you use technology at a school the more dependent you are on it.
I have recently bought a raft of servers, refurbed, the beefiest coming in at £1000 (DL385G2 - two quad core Opterons, 32GB RAM, 8x72GB 10k SAS). Obviously the supply in Oz will differ and prices on older kit may well be higher. Adding your storage requirements to this wouldn't add much cost for SATA drives. This older kit should be more than up to a primary virtualisation setting.
For redundancy, I have a few of these hosts around - I can just transfer the VM backups across to another host quickly and easily. The peace of mind this gives is worth it - you could still do this in a tight budget with refurb kit.
Get refurbished gear and find out if they can supply share SAS as that will give you the shared storage for HA.
However as the 'architect' of the technical solution, it *is* our responsibility to ensure that processes are resilient in the event of failure... so to not work with the executive to have paper based fall back systems ready to go would be to some extent our fault.

This years Christmas Message is the 38th televised address by the Spanish Monarch. The King defend the unity of Spain and also spoke of the economic and financial crisis which has bedeviled the Spanish economy. Its believed that Infanta Cristina, accompanied by her husband and children were at Zarzuela Palace on Christmas Eve. Infanta Elena and her daughter, Doña Victoria Federica de Marichalar later travelled to the Baqueira-Beret ski resort in the Spanish Pyrenees where they were photographed skiing. Infanta Cristina, accompanied by her husband and children arrived in Vitoria ,northern Spain to spend the rest of the Christmas Holidays with the Urdangarín family.

Hello ladies!!!!
Find a Conversation
|Wed, 10-31-2012 - 2:02pm
Hello everyone!
Just wanted to stop by and see how everyone was doing. I know it has been years since I have been on here but I was just sitting here thinking about you ladies today and decided to drop by and say hi!!
A little update from me, I finally graduated with my Bachelors degree in project management, I am now 4 classes away from my Masters. I now work for a large chemical plant but will soon be changing careers again. I am still married to the same woman and our son just celebrated his 7th birthday.
I have spent the last several years on the road but now I am back home in Tennessee and I hoping beyond all hope I can stay here.
So catch me up on what I have been missing.
|Wed, 10-31-2012 - 3:35pm
Welcome back J-man!
Congrats on your Bachelors and wow...almost to your Masters!!

Good to see you here again, J-Man! Congrats on earning your BA and going for your Masters! Very impressive. I hope you get to stay put for a good long while now.
As for me, I'm a grandma! Dd and her dh were finally chosen by a mom to be to adopt her baby. Dd was there at the birth and they took her home when she was 2 days old, so she's truly been theirs from birth. Her name is Riley Taylor and she was born June 5, 2011 and is the light of her parents' and all her grandparents' lives. My siggie shows her at a year old and if you want, you can see the latest pix of her at a Halloween party this past Saturday on my facebook page. Here's a link I think will work. http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10151289814353784.516624.602703783&type=1&l=b33bf9de9b Go ahead and check out the other albums of her, too, if you like - or any of my photos.
In not so great news, I found out my thyroid went nuts, destroyed one of my vocal cords and developed cancer. I had it removed in Sept of 2011, but the cancer hung on and traveled to my spine. I'm in the process of getting rid of it (fingers crossed) now (hence the references you may see to biopsy and radiation treatment). As for my vocal cord, I had a procedure done that plumped it up so the good one works with the bad one better. My voice is okay most of the time, unless I talk too much, try to yell (or sing high notes, lol), or get upset. Then it either disappears or gets real scratchy. At least I can talk almost normally most of the time and eat and drink without too much coughing (did you know your vocal cords are an integral part of eating and drinking? They are.)
So, that's me. Hope the medical stuff wasn't tmi.
|Thu, 11-01-2012 - 8:39am
Well I am thrilled to hear about your new grandbaby! That is truly some terrific news.
Now as for the cancer that is horrible. I really hate to hear that something that terrible has happened to someone as good as yourself. I hope and pray that the treatments work for you and that Doctors can get you all better again.
|Thu, 11-01-2012 - 8:46am
|Thu, 11-01-2012 - 8:56am
My wife ended up having a over active thyroid and lost about 30 lbs in a month. So they had to give her a radiation treatment that killed off part of her thyroid and now she has to take medicine on a daily basis in order to keep it normal.
Most people do not think about it but the thyroid gland is a very important gland in the body.
I am glad the Doctors feel that it will be easy to treat.

Comcast 3Q profit declines, still beats StreetOctober 30, 2013 @ 4:13 am
PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Comcast posted a drop in third-quarter earnings that was milder than expected as its NBCUniversal media subsidiary overcame the absence of Olympics programming with better movie studio performance and upbeat spending at its theme parks.
On the pay TV side, more consumers opted for high-definition and digital video recorder service. That, combined with a price hike, more than offset the loss of 129,000 video subscribers in the quarter.
The nation's top cable TV provider said net income fell 18 percent to $1.73 billion, or 65 cents per share. That beat the 60 cents expected by analysts polled by FactSet.
Revenue dropped 2 percent to $16.15 billion, short of the $16.25 billion analysts expected. Excluding the $1.19 billion in Olympics ad sales last year, revenue would have grown 5 percent.
Its shares rose almost 3 percent in premarket trading.

I own JVC Boomblaster NB70 with 30pin Ipod dock. The lightning adapter didn't work with it - Ipod touch 5g wasn't recognized as IPod-device. Due to the adapter +new Ipod touch height you couldn't close the 'door' anymore.

PetroVietnam Gas Corp. plans to start trading shares on May 21, amid gains in Asia's best-performing stock market this year, making it the second most-valuable company in Vietnam.
The company will list 1.895 billion shares on the Ho Chi Minh City Stock Exchange at an initial price of 36,000 dong each, according to a statement on its website today. The price would give it a market value of 68.22 trillion dong ($3.27 billion), the second largest after Joint-Stock Commercial Bank for Foreign Trade of Vietnam, or Vietcombank.
State-owned Vietnam Oil & Gas Group sold a 3.2 percent stake in unit PV Gas, as the company is known, in an initial public offering in November 2010, raising 1.89 trillion dong. The VN Index (VNINDEX) has gained 33 percent this year, the third-biggest advance among 96 major stock indexes in the world, as inflation eased and the government cut key policy rates to support growth.
"It's a good time to list as the stock market is on an uptrend, making it easier to absorb new stocks," said Nguyen Hoai Nam, deputy head of research at Kim Eng Vietnam Securities Co. "The PV Gas listing will also boost market capitalization, making the Vietnamese market more attractive to foreign investors."
PV Gas won final exchange approval to list the shares on April 27.
"We were planning to list in 2011 but the economy faced a lot of difficulties with high interest and inflation rates," Nguyen Thi Lan, chairwoman of PV Gas, said in an e-mail today. This year, "both the economy and the stock market had many positive changes, attracting a lot of domestic and foreign investors, so we've decided to list at this time."
The listing process has standardized the company's operations and improved transparency of information from the company, according to PV Gas.
"Shareholders also approved the plan to list in Singapore and the company will work with its advisers to list there at the most suitable time," Lan said in the e-mail.
The company's main businesses include the transportation, storage and marketing of gas.

Cardiac feedback and our moral decisions
A new study discussed on our Research Digest highlights the way cardiac feedback influences people's moral decisions.
When students were fed false feedback, leading them to think their heart was racing, they were more likely to volunteer for a good cause and less likely to lie to gain more money.

December 16, 1998
The monthly meeting of the
Safety Committee was called to order at 3:40 p.m. by Chair, Richard Long.
Katrina Doolittle, Jeff Arterburn, Leticia Rodriguez, Linda Perez and Richard
The memo concerning the
Safety Survey and the potential assistance from Dr. Kevin Boberg to Dr. Cunningham was signed by everyone and
given to Dr. Cunningham. Richard
Long, Katrina Doolittle, and Kevin
Boberg had a meeting with Dr. Cunningham and discussed the options for
conducting such survey. Katrina
met with Dr. Dennis Clayson (Economics) about the type of sampling plan needed
to administer the Safety Survey. Katrina
reported a full census could be done with a response rate of about 25%. Doing either a sampling plan or a full survey will be costly.
If a sample is done, we need to designate divisions and sample only
those who are at high risk. Those who work in departments such as history or
the secretarial staff do not need to be surveyed.
There could be three or four divisions.
The divisions discussed by the committee were Facilities, Academic
Sciences, Academic Non-Science and Emergency. Leticia
Rodriguez stated that
Marium Myers could help with identifying different groups. Leticia suggested contacting building monitors to survey the Branch Campuses.
Funding of the survey was discussed but cost
depends on the sampling plan (number of participants).
Long informs the Committee
that he attended a meeting in November and had requests for NMSU Guide to Lab
Safety from a variety of universities.
Linda Perez asks if she
should start a Safety Newsletter? Katrina
states that Graham already sends one out, but maybe a target group newsletter
would be more effective.
Leticia thanks Katrina for
her work on the Safety Survey. Long comments that Katrina has taken lab safety
more seriously than other Safety Directors.
There wasn't any new
There wasn't any new
There being no further
business, Richard Long adjourned the meeting at 4:35 p.m.
The next University Safety Committee meeting will be February 17, 1999.

The down market has spurred an industry evolution
— the "pruning" of brokerage operations that lack creative programs to generate sufficient business or the financial resources to weather the storm. For us, this represents tremendous opportunity.
These ads are designed to target those brokerages for acquisition in weakened states. We call them "wounded animals." Properly orchestrated, these companies can be purchased at distressed prices for the sole purpose of obtaining their agent rosters. These ads should prove especially effective since advertising designed by any one brokerage to recruit individual agents away from another is prohibited in industry publications. So, rather than directing our message to individual agents, we instead position ourselves to acquire the companies they work for.

'Keller Was Wrong' Series
Gary Keller authored the best-selling book
The Millionaire Real Estate Agent.
It is perhaps the most widely read
book written in this generation for aspiring real estate agents. Its central theme is that agents must form and manage a "team" to enjoy higher levels of success. While much of Keller's book offers great advice, we believe that our systems provide better ways – more cost efficient and time efficient ways – to perform at higher levels.
In response, we have developed a series of ads targeting Keller's readers. The series is designed to lead them to a one-page website which outlines our position and ultimately directs them to our
site, where they can learn more about our alternatives.
or on the sample at the right to visit our
website. This ad series in its entirety may be viewed there.
Recruiting is critical to any brokerage.
Yet most approach it passively. Not us. We have a prepared "drip campaign," a series of ads to be delivered to agents by email on a regular schedule. Each is written to hit a "hot button" of agents who would consider switching brokerages.
No competitor has anything like it
Here's another approach we will employ:
Frequently Placed Postings
Whether on social networking sites, CraigsList or the many agent-to-agent blogs where agents share ideas, we'll capitalize on all opportunities to spread the word.
A sample ad or blog post might look like the one to the right:
Let's Join Teams
Top real estate agent team seeks to merge with similar team.
I believe we can cut duplicated expenses and team supervision time while increasing market share and profitability. Visit this website for more information:
'Busy Mom' Series
The majority of real estate agents are women.
Many enter the business as busy moms. Since there is no way to predict when offers must be written, or when they arrive, a common problem is rapidly changing schedules, often resulting in strain on the family. Accordingly, these ads are designed to strike a chord among women facing stress with their kids.
Agent teams have existed for decades.
Teams were supposed to create time savings for the top-producing listing agents., but managing the teams consumes the time saved. We solve that problem.
These ads target those who have teams or are thinking about creating one.
Not all licensees devote full time to real estate
so we created a program just for part-timers.
Our Referrals Only Real Estate [RORE] brokerage provides its part-time agents with their own marketing system, which is directed to their sphere-of-influence contacts. The agents provide their email address list, and our automated email system 'touches' them on a regular schedule. When they're ready to buy or sell, we provide them a list of three top agents for them to interview. Our full-time agents receive the business and the RORE agent earns a referral fee.
These ads are designed to deliver our message, often with a bit of humor so as to be welcome by the recipients.
