Corporate Oil and Beer Profits Fuel Eyman's I-1185 Signature Drive
It's a strange combination but corporate oil and beer profits fuel the signature drive for Eyman's current initiative. Oil and water may not mix but it looks like oil and beer profits do. Latest reports from the Washington State Public Disclosure Commission show corporate interests dumping in most of the $964,713 reported for Eyman's I-1185 campaign to re-enact a 2/3 voting requirement by the legislature to raise revenue.
This latest million dollar corporate campaign to restrict the Washington State Legislature's ability to raise funds is happening despite the recent King County Superior Court decision declaring that the 2/3 vote restriction in Initiative 1053 is unconstitutional. The decision by Superior Court Judge Bruce F Heller was issued on May 31, 2012. While this decision will likely be reviewed by the Washington State Supreme Court. Judge Heller's Memorandum Opinion is pretty clear and simple.
Heller decleared that "The majority provision of Art. II, Section 22 is a clear restriction on the legislature's power to require more than a majority vote for passage of tax measures. This restriction applies to statures initiated by the legislature and to statues passed pursuant to voter initiatives, While initiative measures reflect the reserved power of the people to legislate, the people in their legislative capacity remain subject to mandates of the Constitution, Gerberding, 134 Wn.2d at 196. RCW 43.135.024(1) is therefore unconstitutional."
Despite this clear decision corporate interests persist in trying to prevent the Legislature from voting to directly raise revenue to fund basic state needs or to recoup revenue lost to non performing or under performing tax exemptions that are not benefiting Washington state or its citizens.
On May 16, the Beer Institute out of Washington DC dropped in $400,000 dollars to help pay Citizen Solutions, Eyman's signature gathering firm. BP Oil out of Chicago, Il added $100,000 as did Conoco Phillips Company out of Washington DC. The Washington Restaurant Association added $25,000.
Meanwhile the Association of Washington Business acting to shield the true source of their money, paid $185,000 directly to Citizen Solutions. It was reported as an In Kind donation by Eyman. Where did the Association of Washington Business get the money from? Their public disclosure report shows that they received $100,000 from the American Beverage Association in Washington, DC and another $100,000 from Tesoro Companies in San Antonio, Texas. In addition they got $50,000 from Equilion Enterprises in Houston Texas, and $50,000 from Shell Oil Company in Sacramento, California.
In a press report where Jay Inslee, the Democratic candidate for Governor of Washington accused the Assocation of Washington Business of collecting money from Tesoro to support Inslee's Republican opponent Rob McKenna, the AWB denied the accusation and said the money was passed on to Citizen Solutions to pay for collecting signatures on I-1185.
Big corporate interests are again looking out for their bottom line. Oil companies love it that Eyman is using his anti tax mantra to promote a measure that helps protect their profits. Eyman is selling his snake oil potion to the citizen taxpayers of Washington State as something that benefits them. Unfortunately what it does is lock in a regressive tax system that soaks low income taxpayers and lets corporate profiteers off the hook for new taxes and prevents the legislature from repealing special interest tax breaks oil companies and others enjoy.
Oil companies are opposing a State Legislative proposed increase in the toxic substances tax that would have been used to clean up stormwater runoff contaminated by oil byproducts. Here in Washington state oil companies are soaking up profits like mad as our gasoline prices are the highest in the nation. We pay higher gas prices so they can pay Eyman to put in place a measure that would stop the legislature from charging them to help clean up an environmental problem caused by toxic oil in stormwater runoff entering our strearms, rivers and Puget Sound. Gas prices right now are the highest in the lower 48 states.
Three of the companies contributing to Eyman's campaign are Shell oil companies. Besides Shell itself, Tesoro Industries and Equilon Enterprises are affiliated with Shell. Equilion is doing business in Washington State as Shell Oil Products and has a crude oil refinery in Anacortes, Washington. Tesoro Industries also has a refinery in Anacortes and markets under the Shell name among others. In 2010 there was an explosion at the Tesoro Refinery at Anacortes, Washington that killed 5 workers.
Can Shell afford to help Tim Eyman? I suppose their $8.7 billion dollar profit in the first quarter of 2012 left them with some spare change. BP Oil reported a profit of $5.9 billion and Conoco Phillips a profit of $2.9 billion. To them a few hundred million to prevent the Washington State Legislature from having them help pay for cleaning up oil contaminated stormwater runoff is just another small investment in protecting their profits.
The taxpayers of Washington State, who are paying the highest gas prices in the United States, are the suckers unfortunately who suffer from both oil contaminated water and a regressive tax system that doesn't tax the wealthy the same as lower income brackets. This is because Eyman's 2/3 vote requirement for raising revenue or repealing corporate tax exemptions forces the legislature to cut public services like education and health care for seniors and children rather than do tax reform and make the system fairer and more equitable.
Washington voters and taxpayers need to wake up to the reality that letting a minority of 1/3 of the Legislators in one House dictate tax policy benefits the wealthy and Big Corporations a lot more than moderate and low income working families. Why else are the Oil and Beverage Companies funding I-1185? It's their corporate profits that's driving their actions, not their civic altruism.
Don't sign I-1185 or vote for it if it makes the ballot.

Breakfast ok but expensive. Apart from receptionist slow service of housekeeping. Nice location for trips, but all food around is trash and very expensive!
If you're staying to see the Grand Canyon, come here. Good rooms and the restaurant/bar is great and has live music!
Check out Canyon Star Restaurant -The Grand Hotel as seen on Rachael Ray - $40 a Day
They upgraded our room for free for our anniversary getaway! Very friendly and helpful staff.
Allow twice as much time as you would normally for breakfast. They're so sloooow ......
It's a OKAY hotel with nothing much too talk about except for the proximity to the car
The staff (except barkeep) lacks in the friendliness department, and there is a huge restaurant available but apparently they dont have the staff to fully run it so waiting list runs long!

What is the relationship between antigen and antibody and how does that relationship influence hemolysis?
1 Answer | Add Yours
An antigen is any substance which can provoke an immune response in the body. This immune response results in the production of antibodies, which are immunoglobulin proteins, and which are usually made by immune cells known as plasma cells. The antibodies may float free in the blood plasma, or they may be attached to the outer surfaces of white blood cells known as lymphocytes.
Hemolysis is the lysing (bursting) of red blood cells, also known as erythrocytes. It can happen as a response to several different bacteria and parasites, as well as to the antigen/antibody reaction.
Hemolytic disease of the newborn is the commonest manifestation of hemolysis due to antibodies. It occurs when an Rh postitive infant is born to an Rh negative mother who has Rh antibodies as a result of a previous pregnancy. The maternal antibodies can pass through the placenta and attack the baby's erythrocytes, causing issues that range from mild to very severe.
There is a drug called RhoGam that can be administered to Rh negative women to prevent them from forming anti-Rh antibodies. Since the development of this drug, hemolytic disease of newborns has become much less common.

Most college students have at least another week to enjoy their winter break. But for businesses that rely on those kids as their customers, the return of classes can't come soon enough. Our Iris St. Meran tells us what the impact has been on the SU Hill and how owners are able to make up for the loss.
SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- When street parking is wide open on the Syracuse University Hill, it can only mean one thing: Winter Break.
The Copy Centers General Manager Chris Keevil said, "We have 20,000 approximately students enrolled at SU and when you give them a month off, everything slows down dramatically."
Some places don't even open during break. Each year, The Copy Centers make about 45 million copies for the University and surrounding businesses. On a normal day, Keevil says his staff has about 150 transactions. However, during breaks they may get 10 to 12, so staffing and hours are adjusted to make up for it. Keevil says they've also made some additions to get more customers coming in.
"When Follett's Orange Bookstore closed, we bought some of their fixtures," Keevil added, "You wouldn't think of a copy center selling candy, soda, red bull, that type of thing. But, we added that to our business to generate more traffic."
Some businesses say they don't see much of a difference. The staff at Manny's say, 'yes there are less students walking around,' but they get a lot of foot traffic because of events at the Dome.
"This year's a little unique because of Boeheim's 900th win and the fact that we won the Pinstripe Bowl. It's huge for us, especially in January, when things might be a little bit slower," said Manny's Manager Bill Nester.
Nester says it also helps that Manny's has been around since 1949, so many people are familiar with it.
Keevil says the quiet time allows work to get done they wouldn't have time to do otherwise.
With a few days left until the new semester, they're getting everything ready to welcome students back on campus
And those businesses on the SU hill only have one more week to endure. Classes resume January 14th.

Adding More Toppings on the MB Sundae
This past week the mediabstro.com staff got together for a working lunch. I know what you're thinking— we've gone all corporate already since the sale last week— the ping-pong table is gone and we're all wearing suits. Well, we never had a ping-pong table (no idea why), and any suits are still of the leisure variety. So it's still Kool and the Gang over here.
We bounced around some interesting ideas yesterday. Most of them centered around bringing our devoted MB community members further into the digital age with our content. While I won't steal anyone's thunder, I'll be happy to share my suggestions of the day (besides the one voicing my desire to be better at card tricks).
When I look at mediabistro.com, I see great content that could be even greater if it were adapted in different flavors. So what does that mean exactly?
Let's use the example of vanilla ice cream. It's a popular flavor because it serves as a great foundation to expand upon and make even greater. Some like their vanilla on a cone (sugar,waffle, whatever). Others like it in a cup. Some like it with hot fudge, caramel, or strawberry, and some can't get enough sprinkles (or "jimmies" as we call them in Massachusetts). You still have the classic vanilla at the core, but there are seemingly countless ways to to make it more satisfying. So basically what MB wants to ask you is— what kind of toppings do you like?
One of those flavors could be podcasting. It would seem logical that a media company specializing in content delivery like ours would be knee-deep in podcasting. CNET Networks has a podcast for everything short of brushing your teeth. They podcast about products, news, trends, and everything else that encompasses consumer technology. You can really get an audible education by spending just a short time there. So, why aren't we doing it?
When you're a small company like we were up until a week ago, you have to concentrate the resources and talents on what works for you. And for us, what works is our stellar job board, our valuable editorial content, and our great course offerings. But now that we've eaten a giant bowl of Wheaties courtesy of Jupitermedia, we're eager to explore more avenues for delivering our content. We want to take what works for us, and then spin it off into other facets of digital media, like the aforementioned. For example, how about a podcast that covered best practices for finding a job? How about hearing an interview with an HR expert? Or hearing about an exclusive job opening at a major media company? It could all be courtesy of an MB Jobs Podcast.
If you're a big fan of our blogs, how about a podcast that expands on the best posts of the week? Did you ever want to watch an On Demand video or video Pitch Slam on your ipod? Of course you do, because every one and their mother (including mine) has an iPod or some other portable media player. It seems we'd be crazy not to offer this.
Often the best new ideas already have a foundation to support themselves on. Our goal is for you to already know how important our content offerings are. The question we really want to ask you going forward is— how would you like it served? Let us know.

Sounds solid to me.

BTW, I have a small bottle of Slip2K EWL. While it is as good as my mix, it is no better, and much more expensive.
A 4oz bottle of S2K has lasted me over a year at this point (of light to moderate shooting time), and I still have well over half a bottle. Between that bottle, and the new bottle of EWL, I have paid a grand total of $13 - and I won't need more for quite a while. It works exceptionally well, it doesn't stain my clothes, and I don't have to mix it myself. I call that a good deal.
Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

The Atlanta 48 Hour Film Project
What Happened During Your Weekend?
The Atlanta filmmakers share stories from their wild weekend of filmmaking. (Blogging ended shortly after the filmmaking weekend.)
The Team!
I am in awe at the talent in this group. These young men and women came together, worked as a team, and created a piece of art. We had not a minute to spare – we worked so intensely that we hardly had time to sleep! The team was always thinking and working on the project, especially during the brainstorming process. Everyone listened to each other to make things work, and we compromised without any fighting or arguing. I am so lucky to have had the opportunity to watch everyone work together as a team.
The team was composed of Wes Walker, who carried the vision of the project into his skillful filming and editing; Clay Brantley, who directed the actors with the utmost patience and sincerity; Joe Perez, who produced our project and maintained important documents; Josh Worley, who wrote our fabulous script in only a matter of hours; Logan, who was the personal assistant and the camera man for the project; David Richards, who supplied the project with amazing original music; Jessica Moskowitz, who helped make fast cuts to shorten the script and played Young Marjorie; Cindy Sherwood, who skillfully played Marjorie; and Adam LaBorde, who brilliantly played Doctor Oliver Sandman.
I am so amazed by the talent and skill level of this team, which consisted mostly of college students. I cannot wait to see where their careers take them in the future! We all focused on making the project a success and we stood strong together as a team. To me, the 48 Hour Film Project was more than just a weekend of creating a short film. It was a profound experience that I am so grateful for having shared with such amazing people. Words could never explain how I feel, but I will never forget any of my team members. You have all burned a special place in my heart.

Silent film ROCKS!
So we were given Silent film. I texted the writers and they were excited. After 2 years of comedy we were ready for something else. At first we were a little worried, but once the script was written we started filming.
When you don't have to worry about sound, and since we were going with grainy black and white we also put very little effort into the lighting (except to blow things out a little) we were done filming in about 4 hours. Editing took about another 2 hours. We were all finished by 3pm on saturday.
Easiest 48hr ever!

Hyatt House Brand To Enter Mexico
Hyatt Hotels Corporation (NYSE: H) today announced plans to introduce its Hyatt House extended stay brand in Mexico with the signing of a franchise agreement between a Hyatt affiliate and Fideicomiso de Actividad Empresarial for Hyatt House Santa Fe in Mexico City. The hotel is expected to open in 2016, and it will be managed by Grupo Presidente, one of Mexico's leading hotel operators.
Hyatt House Santa Fe will be located in Mexico City's Santa Fe neighborhood, a renowned business and commercial district in the western part of the city. The hotel will also be the first extended stay hotel in the Santa Fe area backed by an international hotel brand. Hyatt House Santa Fe will help keep routines rolling for guests with 119 residentially inspired upscale den guestrooms, studio and one-bedroom kitchen suites, a comfortable Commons area for guests to unwind in, including an H BAR serving the Sip+Savor menu and full bar, and 2,000 square feet of meeting space, as well as free WiFi and access to public computers, Workout Room and swimming pool.
Hyatt House Santa Fe will be a key component of a mixed-use complex situated along Avenida Prolongacion Vasco de Quiroga. The complex will also include approximately 64,500 square feet of office and retail space, Mexico City's first upscale assisted living residences and an elevated pathway connecting the complex to the American British Cowdray Medical Center (ABC Hospital), which is one of the country's most recognized and leading health care facilities.
"We are delighted to be bringing the first Hyatt House hotel to Mexico. Hyatt House Santa Fe will be an ideal home-base for business travelers and visitors to the medical, corporate and academic facilities in the area," said Norton Figot, director, Fideicomiso de Actividad Empresarial. "Adding the strength and innovation of the Hyatt brand to the development complex is very important to us."

Cellers Scala Dei Priorat Cartoixa 2006
Cellers Scala Dei - Cataluna - Spain - Priorat
Professional Wine Reviews for Cellers Scala Dei Priorat Cartoixa 2006Additional information »
With sixty thousand hectares of prime land under vine, and over two hundred bodegas and wineries operating there, the Spanish region of Catalunya is a vitally important centre for Spanish wine production and viticulture. It seems this has been the case for several thousand years, and recent archaeological findings have proven that Catalunya has a wine history which pre-dates Roman Spain by a considerable margin, making it one of the oldest wine regions in the world. Catalan wines today are dominated by the ever popular sparkling Cava wines, made in the methode champenois, and drank across the globe as a fine replacement for the more expensive Champagne wines. However, the excellent climatic conditions and terroir of Catalunya means that the bodegas of the region can also produce excellent still red and white wines, made from the wide range of grape varietals which thrive there.
Ever since the Phoenicians and Romans brought their knowledge of vine cultivation to Spanish soils, the country's culture has grown alongside wine production, with wine being a vital part of Spanish identity and Spanish traditions. Each region of Spain has a wine quite distinct from the others, and it is produced by smallholders and families as much as it is by large companies and established wineries. From the relatively mild and lush regions of La Rioja to the arid plateaus that surround Madrid, grapes are grown in abundance for the now booming Spanish wine industry, and new laws and regulations have recently been put in place to keep the country's standards high. By combining traditional practices with modern technology, Spanish wineries are continuing to produce distinctive wines of great character, flavor and aroma, with the focus shifting in recent decades to quality over quantity.

It's a new year and time for a new YOU! My advice to new Sparkers or those who are looking for help~~DON'T GIVE UP! BELIEVE IN YOURSELF AND YOUR DREAM OF LOSING THE WEIGHT! BECAUSE YOU JOINED SP! Here are the tools you'll need & what I used to help me lose the wt.[4 mos.] & maintain my loss for 11 mos.{it will be ~ONE YEAR! ~ on Jan.21 of this year! For my story of the 15 tips that helped ME go to yesterday's blog on my Sparkpage--dated 12.31.10!}
1-I persevered and lost the wt. b/c I DID NOT GIVE UP! Even when I ate poorly ,I DID NOT GIVE UP!~Don't give UP!
2-I BELIEVED IN MYSELF!~Believe in yourself!
3-I have a SUPPORTIVE HUSBAND--get yourself some SUPPORT BESIDES YOURSELF--A spouse or a Sparkteam!
4-Learn your way SLOWLY around the site. Start tracking food when you are ready[I did not track the first day on SP.]Then,when you are used to tracking food,add fitness.[I did NOT track fitness until I had tracked my food for a week.]~Track your food/fitness when YOU"RE READY!
5-Then DON"T STOP TRACKING FOOD OR FITNESS TIL YOU HAVE MET YOUR GOAL !
6-If you hit a plateau,ask Sparkers for advice--they've BEEN THERE and KNOW WHAT TO DO!
~GOOD LUCK,SPARKERS!~I KNOW YOU CAN DO IT! THIS IS ~1/1/11~OF SAYING I'M GOING TO DO IT!~IT'S A NEW YEAR AND A NEW YOU!~Betsy
1-Have a friendly competition like Biggest Loser to keep interest in your losing the wt.!
2-Don't get overwhelmed on SP BY TRYING TO DO EVERYTHING AT ONCE!
3-Tracking my food DAILY on the NUTRITION TRACKER MADE ALL THE DIFFERENCE!
4-Set A GOAL!
6-I tried to stay in my caloric range,but it was HARD THE FIRST MONTH ,so I DID NOT SWEAT IT!
7-After allowing yourself some TIME TO LEARN ONE SKILL,THEN ADD ANOTHER[like learning to track your food,THEN go for tracking fitness!].
8-STRENGTH TRAINING BURNS cals.LONGER than Cardio!
9-When working out every day,MIX-UP THE ROUTINE!
10-If you UPPED the Strength Training,UP THE CARDIO!
13-MAINTENANCE=Do what you did to lose the weight=EXERCISE+FOOD PORTIONING+GOOD FOOD CHOICES!
15-BELIEVE IN YOURSELF AND HAVE SUPPORTIVE PEOPLE AROUND YOU --whether it be a spouse,loved ones or a Sparkteam!
If I CAN DO IT, ! IT TOOK ME 12 YEARS TO FINALLY BEAT THIS WEIGHT AND I'VE WON~~LONGER[AS GOD ALLOWS],BETTER QUALITY OF LIFE!
Since today is New Year's Eve and I DO make resolutions [but mostly they turn into Short term goals}, I wanted to reflect on a New Year's Resolution that TURNED into a LONG TERM GOAL~~LOSING THE WEIGHT AND KEEPING IT OFF!
I joined SP January 21,2010 after being introduced to the site by a fellow mom in my local MOMS Club who ,like me, was entered in our MOMS Club Biggest Loser Competition.
1-Have a friendly competition to keep you interested in losing the weight---it may be with your spouse or a friend or friendS.It's easier to focus on losing the weight when it is being done by MORE THAN JUST YOURSELF!
I saw the site and was a bit overwhelmed by everything,BUT when I saw the Nurtition Tracker that COUNTED MY CALORIES FOR ME [and all I had to do was put them in!---I know,ALOT of WORK,but WORTH IT!],I saw the possibilities of finally achieving WT.LOSS!
2-Don't get overwhelmed on SP BY TRYING TO DO EVERYTHING AT ONCE! When I joined, I did NOT track my nutrition the first day.I just familiarized myself with the site. Then,THE NEXT DAY,I TRACKED and with a few exceptions--being ill or unable to get to the computer or---[ too busy--THAT's happened maybe 3-or less times THIS YEAR],I have FAITHFULLY TRACKED MY FOOD .
3-Tracking my food DAILY on the Nutrition Tracker made all the difference!
Realizing I was turning 50 this year,I set a goal of losing all the wt. by my birthday.
4- Set a GOAL!
When I realized I couldn't REACH MY GOAL by the allotted time[3mos.1week] I had given myself,I changed the time allotment!
As I got used to tracking the food,I didn't worry about staying in my range,just tracking the food!I was only able to stay in my caloric range of 1300-1500cals. 8x the first month.
6-I tried to stay in my range ,but it WAS HARD THE FIRST MONTH ,and my body was adjusting to the changes ,so I did NOT sweat it!
HOWEVER,I DID SWEAT the big stuff like working out IN SOME FORM OF EXERCISE every day!I did NOT do fitness til the SECOND WEEK of being on SP. I had learned to track my food[though still not eating as healthy as I could] and now I added tracking my fitness!
7-After allowing yourself some TIME TO LEARN ONE SKILL,THEN ADD ANOTHER! I tracked my fitness EVERY DAY THE FIRST TWO MONTHS and started losing the weight!
I regained my metabolism and got my BASAL METABOLIC RATE[BMR] HIGHER due to the fact I was STRENGTH TRAINING 3X A WEEK on my Soloflex machine. [I recommend working out at home--it's hard for me to get to the gym with a 3 yo & no daycare at my gym!].
I lost TEN POUNDS the FIRST TWO MONTHS and was still having difficulty with my caloric range but WAS DOING BETTER,LITTLE BY LITTLE IN MY FOOD CHOICES!
8-STRENGTH TRAINING BURNS LONGER than Cardio! You burn cals.for 30 minutesafter Cardio, but YOU BURN CALS. FOR TWO HOURS AFTER STRENGTH TRAINING!
I had to look for something to do on my other two days of working out{the weekends were for fun things to do & REST!] and found it in the form of LESLIE SANSONE'S WALK SLIM DVD.
9-When working out every day,MIX-UP THE ROUTINE!
I had trouble with the food choices in April and May and my losing weight hit a plateau. So I asked ADVICE FROM SPARKERS on a blog and was told UP THE CARDIO!
10- If you've upped the Strength Training,UP THE CARDIO!
My plateau lifted and it was on to losing LAST FEW POUNDS [mind you,I'm still having trouble staying in my caloric range]. I changed MY CALORIC RANGE due to my ST allowed me MORE CALS.--I had checked my Daily Calorie Differential on the Reports on the Toolbar and I could see why I felt hungry--I was burning so many cals. ,I NEEDED MORE CALS. to fuel my energy. I was now PORTIONING my food to get a handle on it.
It all came together after only 4 months on SP! I had lost 19.4 lbs! I RESET MY GOAL WEIGHT! I wanted to be finished and I was .6 of a lb. away!
Wouldn't you know,I lost the .6 of a lb. a week later!I was now focused on MAINTAINING MY WT.LOSS and boy,was I SCARED! What if it all came back on? I had lost 22 lbs. off of Richard Simmons CLOSE-THE-WINDOW- tool of after what you eat,close the photo icon windows and I regained 15 of the pounds! I just continued to workout daily [resting at least 1x/wk. and sometimes my "workouts' consisted of heavy cleaning--I'm a stay-at-home mom!] or walking to & from the park with my hubby & 3 yo son! And I KEPT TRACKING MY FOOD & PORTIONING IT!
13-When on MAINTENANCE,keep doing what you did to LOSE THE WT.=EXERCISE +FOOD PORTIONING+GOOD FOOD CHOICES!The weight STAYED OFF!
Now MY BIGGEST FEAR FACTOR was Thanksgiving and Christmas---holidays in which I ALWAYS GAINED a pound or two. But due to portioning + exercise,I PASSED BOTH HOLIDAYS WITH FLYING COLORS!
14-When eating during HOLIDAYS--SAMPLE PORTION THE FOODS [bite size pieces & not too many--- get you through the cookie exchanges & parties].
Lastly,I never gave up hope & my hubby & sparkteams were there to HELP!
15-You have to BELIEVE IN YOURSELF & NOT GIVE UP,THINKING because YOU CAN! Plus it HELPS TO JOIN A SPARKTEAM FOR SUPPORT AND HAVE SUPPORTIVE PEOPLE AT HOME!!!!
If I CAN DO IT, YOU CAN,TOO! Being ON SP is an important step to YOUR GOAL OF LOSING WT. I fought that weight for TWELVE YEARS and WON! YOU CAN,TOO!
Mine are Folate & Protein. I found a way to get my Folate that I can handle--Chocolate Cheerios --1 cup a day helps me reach my 100 range minimum.
I am consistently low in Protein ,reaching 60-75 when my minimum is 80 . Any suggestions???
What Nutrients are you having a hard time attaining??? Or are you successful in each Nutrient area??
The" loss" is a purse at the zoo yesterday and while it is painful to have to re-do everything & close accounts & get new cards,etc. ,my hubby put it simply when we prayed for dinner that night~~"...I guess, Lord ,the people who found the purse needed it MORE than we do!" A good example he is setting for our young child and it taught ME not to FOCUS on the worldly possessions,but on GOD,who is eternal. ALL IS HIS and it is lent to us only for a little while.
"Rejoicing in hope;PATIENCE in TRIBULATION;continuing instant in prayer." Romans12:12
"Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth,where moth rust doth corrupt,and where thieves break through and steal:
But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven,where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt,and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
For WHERE YOUR TREASURE IS, there will BE YOUR HEART ALSO."Matthew 6:19-21

text: Red Bull: Problems cost us time on both days 15 May, 2014 Sebastian Vettel took over at the wheel of the RB10 for the second and final day of testing in Barcelona and, after a late start due to overnight work solving the gearbox issues that halted the team's running yesterday, Sebastian managed to put in a useful 72 laps of the Circuit de Catalunya in the afternoon. "The problems of yesterday made us a bit late out this morning but the afternoon was productive and we did a lot of laps which, considering the time that we had, was good," said Sebastian. "We used the tyres that we used last weekend, as we want to try to understand the car more and in terms of that I think we have learned a lot, so I would say it was a useful, if not perfect, day." Race Engineering Co-ordinator Andy Damerum agreed with Sebastian's assessment saying that despite the time lost today and yesterday, the laps completed had yielded a wealth of useful data. "It's obviously not ideal to have a problem that costs you time on both days, but the problem we had was such that it needed a lot of time to fix overnight and getting the car ready delayed our start this morning," he said. "We managed to get a couple of runs in before lunch, just to get Sebastian comfortable in the car, but it wasn't giving him what he wanted so we tweaked a few things over the lunch break. Then in the afternoon we had a pretty productive run. It sounds like a mantra for me now, but every lap you run yields good information and even though we didn't have a perfect outing yesterday or today, we've got good data. I spoke to the guys at the factory this morning and they're already pleased with the information we got yesterday. In the limited time we had today I have to say that, from a race engineer's perspective, there was a lot to take away from the work we did. So, all told – a fairly decent couple of days."

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) -- A new poll suggests John McCain's selection of Sarah Palin as his running mate is drawing a positive if partisan response from the public.
The ABC News poll released today finds half of all respondents had a positive impression of her, while 37 percent saw her less favorably. Of the Republicans who were surveyed, 85 percent felt positively, while 53 percent of independents and just 24 percent of Democrats felt similarly.
By comparison, 54 percent of respondents expressed a favorable view of Democratic vice presidential nominee Joe Biden.
The survey also suggests there are plenty of doubts about the Alaska governor's experience. Just 42 percent of respondents say she has enough experience to serve as president.
Further, only 25 percent say Palin's selection makes them likelier to vote for the Republican ticket.

A general-purpose transfer protocol for intermediate data was designed
and scrapped for time. So was a local service allocated and shared by
resident containers. Instead, the NM supports loading modules (like
ShuffleHandler) at startup that implement auxiliary (or its
misspelling; my bad), ops-approved services, particularly shared
protocols independent of container and application allocation.

The NM loads and starts a list of services from the config by
classname. Each of these services follows the same lifecycle as the
other NM components. Each service is given a name in the config, which
is also its address for containers launched on that machine. Each
container can pass an opaque blob to the service to initialize it with
container-specific data. For the MR shuffle, these are the job
Don't bother listing everything that's wrong with this model. Its
principal virtue was speed of implementation.
> How do containers discover the service ?
They don't. They need to know the name of the service a priori. -C

Reading Money Flows; Moody's Puts
By David Russell of
Below is a compilation of some important stories that ran Wednesday on optionMONSTER.com. optionMONSTER was co-founded by Deep in the Money Calls author Pete Najarian and uses advanced monitoring systems to detect trading patterns by large institutional traders and retail investors.
What money flows are telling us: It is not unusual for new money flows, which typically come in at the start of each month, to influence prices. That may be part of what we are seeing today.
Put sellers see bottom in Moody's (MCO): As Congress investigates the credit-rating company, one investor seems to think that its stock has seen the worst of the downside.Big bet on emerging markets ETF: An institutional option trader is making a large bet that the EEM exchange-traded fund will move significantly in the next six weeks. Dish Networks (DISH) faces bearish position: The satellite TV operator has been drifting lower since reversing sharply last month, and now one trader is positioning for a further push to the downside. Legg Mason (LM) sees range-bound trade: The asset-management firm hasn't seen much in the way of options action, but we see more than 10 times its daily average this morning essentially in one trade. VIX option volume sets record in May: The VIX appears to be entering its own period of secular growth after several years of gradually winning acceptance as a hedging mechanism.
Wednesday Pre-MarketPay attention to the bid/ask spread: Most traders don't pay much attention to the bid/ask spreads of options, but they can provide vitally important information. Bears look for Fifth Third (FITB) to slump: The bank hasn't yet repaid its government bailout money and is still struggling with heavy losses. Now it looks as if it is ready to test further to the downside. Traders bullish in Tenet (THC) despite drop: The health care company plunged yesterday after saying it might acquire an Australian company, but the options activity was bullish. General Mills (GIS) faces range-bound trade: The food company has been consolidating near its all-time highs since December, and now one investor thinks it will stay there for the next three weeks.

BOSTON (AP) — New research suggests that high levels of BPA, a chemical in many plastics and canned food linings, might raise the risk of miscarriage in women prone to that problem or having trouble getting pregnant.
The work is not nearly enough to prove a link, but it adds to "the biological plausibility" that BPA might affect fertility and other aspects of health, said Dr. Linda Giudice, a California biochemist who is president of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine. The study was to be presented Monday at the group's annual conference in Boston. Last month, ASRM and an obstetricians group urged more attention to environmental chemicals and their potential hazards for pregnant women.
BPA, short for bisphenol-A, and certain other environmental chemicals can have very weak, hormone-like effects. Tests show BPA in nearly everyone's urine, though the chemical has been removed from baby bottles and many reusable drink containers in recent years. The federal Food and Drug Administration says BPA is safe as used now in other food containers.
Most miscarriages are due to egg or chromosome problems, and a study in mice suggested BPA might influence that risk, said Dr. Ruth Lathi, a Stanford University reproductive endocrinologist.
With a federal grant, she and other researchers studied 115 newly pregnant women with a history of infertility or miscarriage; 68 wound up having miscarriages and 47 had live births.
Researchers analyzed blood samples from when the women were discovered to be pregnant and divided them into four groups based on BPA levels. Women in the top quarter had an 80 percent greater risk of miscarriage compared to those in the bottom group even though they were similar in age and other factors. However, because the study is relatively small, there was a big range of possible risk — from only slightly elevated to as much as 10 times higher.
"It may be that women with higher BPA levels do have other risk factors" for miscarriage that might be amplified by BPA, Lathi said.
The study is not cause for alarm, but "it's far from reassuring that BPA is safe" for such women, she said.
To minimize BPA exposure, avoid cooking or warming food in plastic because heat helps the chemical leak out, she said. Don't leave water bottles in the sun, limit use of canned foods and avoid handling cash register receipts, which often are coated with resins that contain BPA.
"It's impossible to avoid it completely," Lathi said.

Progressive Dinner — Indulge in downtown Sarasota's culinary treats
Date: September 30, 2009
by: Stephanie Hannum | Black Tie Editor
Downtown Sarasota has a plethora of wonderful restaurants and types of cuisine. Not only was the evening full of perfect bites and sips — it was actually hard to leave each restaurant without the feeling of wanting more. Gather your friends and follow this progressive dinner for a culinary treat. Bon appetit!
Editor's note: We will return to the downtown area again to continue the culinary tour and hit the restaurants we didn't profile this time.
1 DRINK & APPETIZER: Selva Grill
The bar at Selva Grill (Pisco Bar + Lounge) is a great place to socialize with quality libations and bites, which are so tantalizing to the tongue, it's hard to choose what to order. The happy-hour menu is available from 5 to 7 p.m. and offers $4 to $7 appetizers and drinks. My dining companion and I sampled pescado ($5 during happy hour), ceviche with a tasty blend of white fish, lime and cilantro flavors; as well as Aji Gallin spring roll ($9), classic Peruvian creamy, spicy pulled chicken with avocado aioli that is so delicious sometimes two rolls are not enough. The light bites were happily washed down with the always-favorite Bellini martini ($10).
2 ENTRÉE: MoZaic
Our first experience at MoZaic had us wanting to come back for more — and soon. Right out of the gate, the chilled soup amuse-bouche was a to-die-for beginning to our stop for entrées. The winning dish of the evening was the trio of lamb chops, duck breast and blue-crab flan with savoyarde gratin potatoes ($32). My dining companion practically licked his plate. The atmosphere at MoZaic is comfortable and sophisticated at the same time and a great place to enjoy a relaxing dinner with friends.
3 DESSERT: Zoria
On our dessert stop we had the pleasure of being waited on by charming co-owner Arthur Lopes, who helped us decide on the indulgent endings to this progressive dinner. He chose the blackberry-and-raspberry cobbler ($8), a refreshing cobbler with ice cream, and the hot-chocolate pudding cake ($10), which was rich and addicting. Lopes explained that they improved the pudding cake by cooking it in a ramekin and adding chocolate ganache to the center to keep it moist, unlike some chocolate lava cakes. The stories Lopes told of his famous banana cream pie, which is only served on the weekends, had us planning our return.
4 DRINK & ENTERTAINMENT: Café Epicure
Although there isn't live entertainment at Epicure's chic bar in the space that Jolly used to occupy, watching the bartenders muddle herbs and concoct perfectly paired martinis proves to be entertaining. The menu of martinis is an artistic work of flavors, and the one that has the town talking: the strawberry-and-basil martini ($10) — who'd have thought it would be such a winning combination? The lit wall behind the bar is pleasing to the eye, and the hip atmosphere of the newer space has really brought Epicure up a notch. Luckily, the scrumptious gelato is still available, too.

I know this is so simple you all have likely forgotten the answer. I don't even know if I'm allowed to do what I want in this case.
I received some teaching links and I want to store the lectures on my drive so I can re-access or share them.
Installed download helper for ffx but it's not doing anything–I even clicked on a couple places and it didn't appear to be doing anything ;-)
Am too cowardly to upgrade from Vista to Win7…can't find the equivalent of XPs Temporary internet files so I can change the name and move the file. I can't even figure out what document name to look for. *.tmp and the filename from right clicking online and displaying Page Source info gave me nothing
When I played it, it didn't appear to engage WinAmp or WMP. It was audio with what appeared to be power point slides.
Happy to include the link if it will help someone tell me what to do.

Seven Days, Seven Parties: After-Hours During New York Fall Fashion Week 2012
Half of the social obligations (and three quarters of the fun) of Fashion Week happen after the shows are over; tony dinner gatherings turn into early-morning Whitney Houston tributes, well-styled strangers turn into old friends, and it's a wonder that anyone attends the nine a.m. shows. So as the long weekend approaches, we look back at the much longer week New York has just endured, one night at a time.
Kate Winslet, who attended as the guest of George Sharp (of St. John), neglected to answer questions from the press, perhaps sensing that this was a night to celebrate fashion, not Hollywood.

TOZI, an authentic Italian cicchetti restaurant in London Victoria, has created a series of cooking classes to teach children aged five and over how to make popular Italian dishes during the school holidays.
Taught by the restaurant's Head Chef, Maurilio Molteni, children in groups of up to six will get to grips with two classic mains and desserts – pizza, filled pasta, biscotti and gelato. From making their own pasta and pizza dough to choosing their ingredients, children will receive hands-n tuition to go through each stage of the cooking process before tucking into their finished products.
Launching on 8 April 2014, the TOZINI classes are priced at £10 each and will take place every Tuesday and Thursday from 3:30pm – 5pm during the Easter, half-term and summer school holidays.

Curricular conversations : play is the (missing) thing
Featured Queue:
Publication Type:Book
Source:Studies in curriculum theory, Routledge, New York, NY, p.125 (2013)
Call Number:Cubb LB2806.15 .M326 2013
Keywords:Aesthetics--Study and teaching, Curriculum planning, Play
Summary: "The central theme of Curricular Conversations is this: Play is the thing that brings aesthetic curricular complications near educators and their students, making the lived consequences very vivid, tangible, and possible. Viewing curriculum as genuine inquiry into what is worth knowing, rather than simply a curricular document, this book explores the significances instilled and nurtured through aesthetic play. Each chapter delves into the space a given artwork reveals. The artworks act as points of departure and/or generative vehicles, foregrounding the roles and possibilities of play within curricular conversations. Looking at relevant educational issues, traditions, and theorists through an illuminating lens, this book speaks to curriculum theorists and arts educators everywhere"-- Provided by publisher.

In this months edition of The Endpoint Zone with Brad Anderson you'll hear directly from Corporate Vice President, Brad Anderson (that means he runs engineering) about the biggest month yet in Microsoft Intune releases. You'll hear about the Intune Secure Browser, about Exchange On-Prem and Office 365 conditional access and other groundbreaking new features. But that's not all. I also asks Brad about the General Availability of Azure Remote App and about the new Enterprise Cloud Suite (which super-sets Windows per user licensing, Office 365 and Enterprise Mobility Suite.
Yes, this is the Tech Industries official enterprise mobility talk show.
The post Endpoint Zone Episode 4 appeared first on Enterprise Devices + Infrastructure.
In this edition of the Endpoint Zone Brad Anderson discusses three game changing announcements around Office 365 integration with Microsoft Intune, native instrumentation of Microsoft Office apps for Microsoft Intune management and <something else> and Brad and Simon interview Patrick Wirtz, Innovation Manager at the Walsh group – a Microsoft Intune customer – who explains why they chose Intune and what more they plan on doing with Enterprise Mobility Suite.

Brad and I talk about the last month in enterprise mobility in the second episode of The Endpoint Zone with Brad Anderson. If you don't know Brad is CVP Enterprise Mobility and Client Management at Microsoft and he's tasked with delivering Microsoft Enterprise Mobility vision through the solutions his team develops.
In this episode Brad and I talk about:
Don't forget to give Brad and Simon your feedback in the comments. They got some amazing feedback last time from some very interesting people, this time give us some captions for the freeze frame at the start of the video.

Hey folks, I'm working on an upcoming post and I'd really like to get some feedback from you. I've already asked this on Twitter before and I have a pretty good idea from talking to people all over the world but: What are your top 5 mobility challenges? Let me know in the comments and in a future post I'll explain how we can help solve them with Microsoft Enterprise Mobility Suite.
The post Poll: What are your top mobility challenges? appeared first on Enterprise Devices + Infrastructure.
Over the next few weeks I'm going to be on the road, and in the air a lot so I'm just getting all my tech prepped to be able to show things off and keep myself fully productive while I'm on the go. Here's what I'm doing and what I'm taking.
First up I'm doing the Baltics TechDay tour and it's my first time in all these places, so be nice. I know what we've got planned but, I'll be honest, I really can't tell you what the websites say. Each one is linked below so if you're local be sure to get there…it's going to be epic! Personally I'm doing the keynote with Symon Perriman and I'm presenting sessions on using mobility with Office 365 and on Windows. Check events out at the links below.
Then I'm off top TechEd Europe in Barcelona. I've been looking forward to this one for a long time and I'm hoping to meet up with lots of people from the UK and elsewhere. I'll obviously be manning the Channel 9 live stage, and therefore streaming live to those on the stream but I have some sessions as well.
Don't forget to sign up for my ILLs at TechEd Europe, you can find them in the session list.
Aside from that the core kit that's going into my tech bag / pockets includes:

Problems with a external hard drive?
Thought to myself as it is Christmas, and as I have got a problem with a external hard drive for Christmas, but have solved it, I thought why not post a solution on this web page.
Not showing in Windows Explorer?
This happened to me. Click start, type Disk Management, then find your external hard drive (mine is 'ST 350041 2AS USB Device) usually it's in Disk 1, right click and select Mark As Active. Then to make it a D:/ drive or E:/ drive, click Change Letter Drive and change it from there.
Hopefully this will help users from both Windows Seven Forums and traffic from external sources (google, yahoo etc). Please leave 'Rep' if this worked for you. All the best, Edster.

Former Celtic captain and assistant manager Sean Fallon has died at the age of 90.
The Irishman passed away peacefully in his sleep in the early hours of Friday morning.
Fallon won the Scottish Cup twice in 1950 against Motherwell and two years later against Aberdeen, when he scored in the Hampden final.
He also starred in the 7-1 League Cup final rout against Rangers in 1957 when his replacement as skipper Jock Stein lifted the trophy.
And the Sligo-born man was Stein's assistant as Celtic swept all before them during the club's most successful period from 1965 to 1977.
Aside from the on field triumphs which saw the club crowned Champions of Europe in 1967, Fallon was instrumental in signing the likes of Kenny Dalglish, Danny McGrain, David Hay and Pat Bonner.
Fallon unveiled the Premier League flag on the opening day of the current season, when Celtic beat Aberdeen 1-0.
