Irrelevant: A UAE Bank's Bankable Problem
Many of us opt to bear and grin through our banking problems, but when a recent contact with the bank ends in an 8-page fax, clearly time to change banks.
November 23, 2011 4:54 by p.deleon
For some reason this particular Kipper first opened our first ever UAE bank account with a a local bank from the northern Emirates that has made itself irrelevant by not implementing some of the features its competitors (and indeed Kipp) would see as standard.
And though, we know that we should have switched over to one of the usual giants dominating the UAE's over serviced banking industry, a genuine belief in loyalty and the good of local banks meant we've stayed on through the thick and the thin. Well, more like we were too lazy to drive up north to get the paper work in order.
The procrastination hasn't paid off; quite the opposite. For starters for years this particular bank had a mere shell of a website. What that meant, was while my other smug online-bank-savvy friends were smugly refilling their mobile phones with credit, or smugly transferring money to one another or smugly paying their RTA bills, I stuck to good old hard cash.
I have never visited the bank, primarily because most of the offices warrant a road trip of its own-let's just say I try to limit contact with the bank as much as I can.
But with the mandatory IBAN introduction, I had to call my bank. It wasn't as difficult as I imagined, I just had to enter my account and pin thrice before I was attended to. The friendly lady on the phone asked me five security questions and then gave me my IBAN. She offered to help me out with anything else and that's when I got plain greedy. "Could I please just change my postal address, please, please please?"
Seeing as I'd been through a rather thorough check that proved I was indeed the owner of the account, you'd think changing my postal address would be as simple as providing the call attendant with my new numbers…
You thought wrong. Apparently the bank needs to fax me forms that I needed to fill and fax-back with a copy of my passport and visa.
Fax? Do people still use those clunky noisy machines?
After giving her my fax number, I waited for two whole hours before an 8-page application came through. Most of them have a big "FAX" written on them, but I have spotted a few forms to fill in.
Needless to say, the fax still sits on my desk here at work—chances are even if I manage to fill them and fax it over, by the time the bank actually changes my postal address in my records, I might have changed postal addresses again.

Needless to say, the banks in UAE is far behind when it comes to punctuality, service and transparency from banks else where in the world.
I would like to share one of my friend's problem with the a well reputed bank in UAE.
He wanted to take a car loan, when asked over the phone they instructed him to get a Evaluation Certificate for the car he intended to buy from a well known car dealer on Sheikh Zayed Road, they provided the certificate for AED 300. When he went to the Bank main branch they refused to accept the certificate! The Branch Manager said it is not this car dealer he should be getting the certificate from but another one. He called their 800 – toll free number again and asked where to get the certificate and he got the answer same as before. So he end up losing AED 300 for nothing! Bank Manager acted helpless and warned him not to just call and clarify but to come to the branch physically to make sure of things! So why those Toll Free and 24 hours telephone assistance really exist?

New Year's Eve is tomorrow! I can't believe how fast 2010 has come and almost gone. I've been so busy riding my snowboard on over 170" of that famous Champagne powder™ snow that's fallen here in Steamboat, I haven't even given one thought as to how I was going to ring in the New Year – until now.
There are so many options to choose from. First, there's the Sprint New Year's Eve Torchlight Parade & Fireworks starting at 7pm. Members of the Steamboat Ski & Snowboard School parade down the mountain holding torches to light up the night sky. It's a great time for everyone and the parade can be viewed from both the base of the mountain or from downtown. However, my recommendation for the best (and most happening) viewing spot would be to check out the new Bear River Terrace and Umbrella Bar.
Of course, watching all those fireworks is sure to build up your appetite, so how about a delicious dinner to keep you going until Midnight. The Cabin is offering a special menu just for New Year's Eve with buffalo ribeye, Vermont quail, chestnut and squash ravioli and so much more! The Cabin is open for dinner from 5:30pm to 10pm and that Colorado casual cooking would sure hit the spot. You definitely can't ring in the New Year on an empty stomach!
Then, there's the New Year's Eve Dinner and Dance Celebration at The Steamboat Grand. This is one rockin' New Year's Eve celebration. The doors open for cocktails at 7pm and dinner is served at 8pm. But that's just the beginning, the dance party starts at 10pm with a DJ that's sure to get everyone moving. Plus, you can attend the entire celebration or just go for the dancing – it's totally up to you. I can't imagine celebrating the New Year with friends and family in any other way.
With so many options to choose from, there's no reason to sit at home this New Year's Eve. So, make your plans now and get those resolutions ready because 2011 is almost here. But whatever you do, just remember to be safe and have a Happy New Year!
For more information about The Cabin for New Year's, contact 970-871-5550 or visit http://steamboatgrand.com/pdf/Cabin_New_Years_Eve_Menu.pdf to view the menu.

text: Facebook Nudes, Horny Dudes?Anybody who frequents this site has caught wind of the Facebook photo revolution occurring on this site by now, I'm sure. In case you haven't, we've all seen the Facebook pictures people take for the ID's. They're rarely composed let alone adjusted or corrected, most often taken by the subject him or herself by way of mirror or reach of arm.This "style" of photography has been garnering a lot of attention largely due to the fact that young women are the subject. The most popular submissions feature nude women, obviously catering to men. The problem is this: the popularity is devoid of artistic merit or admiration. Anybody can sign up for this site, post nude pictures, write them off as art, and receive all of the attention they may ever desire with paradoxical anonymity.While immensely annoying it is not surprising. Fantastic artists will give it a go once or twice, see if they can break a rule and make something good from it. I could even tolerate their presence in their current num

Music is magical. It knows a way to express every human feeling and emotion. There's no language that compares to the communicative power of a musical motif. Vivace speaks the tongue of Fables, Myths and Sagas. Get on board and experience a sampling instrument like no other before and enrich your sound palette with exclusive musical colours.
We set out to match and then advance the full orchestral sampling line we began in 2011 with the ground-breaking and highly user-friendly composing tool, "Tutti". Where that package brought us the dark side, "Vivace" guides us through a magical and mystical land of inspired symphonic cinematic orchestral effects, patterns, atmospheres and moods.
Vivace features tempo-synced tonal cues, each recorded in all 12 keys utilising our ITM (Intelligent tempo mapping) system so that every sample is automatically integrated perfectly into any arrangement. The pressure of tight deadlines always interferes with the creative process so we believe Vivace is an essential tool to keep orchestrating craftsmanship high in production schedules with tight deadlines and on demand client expectations.
Vivace is a dedicated performance sampling library that continues building the Sonokinetic legacy in original one-of-a-kind sampling tools for professional composers and sound designers. A vast collection with over 16,000 samples (32,000 total combination of 16 and 24 bit) propels this impressive library to new heights.
Sonokinetic is proud to set a new standard with this instrument that functions not only as a composer and sound designer's tool but also as a learning environment: With Kontakt 5 we have upscaled the full score view to provide you with a better look under the hood and guide you through every step in full section score view.
Again, Sonokinetic sticks with its unbeatable pricing module and high quality sampling. This package is priced so competitively it really is hard to resist. We're proud to present this instrument to composers of every level as Vivace comes shipped with the free Kontakt Player and appears integrated within the Kontakt Library panel.
Just as we have been inspired during the creation of Vivace, we hope you are moved by the sonic possibilities to blend new orchestral FX and colours like never before.

Feliz primer día de mayo.
Latinos do more than sling tacos…they even get to be a Supreme Court judge… ;)
May Day. Man, the unions and the communists really fell off the map since the days everyone knew what May Day was.
Typically communists would have parades, and communist countries would have parades with massive displays of military materiél in the capital. This year Russia is doing parades in Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia, Dagestan and Chechnya.
China is having displays at sea near Japan, Philippines, S. Korea, VietNam, Indonesia and others. -
As I recall, Labor Day is in the fall specifically to separate it from May Day.
Lalo again publicly presents stereotypes –
Cantinflas-moustached, siesta-eyed taco vendor that attracts flies – and yet Sterling is crucified for private comments on essentially the same actions.
Seems like the only difference is that one purports to be FOR his people and the other is AGAINST people who aren't his own. The end result is the same. -
Don't you understand? Lalo is relevant! Casting his angst in the face of adversity, or some such. It's hard to keep track of the party line.
I'm not questioning the relevancy of his subject matter. I'm pointing out that it is poorly done. Many political cartoonists and satirists have insights that ordinary people don't think of, are very clever, are good artistic draftsmen, and frequently have balance (not lockstep with one party line).
Lalo plays the Latino card and apparently believes that it gives him the hip and inside track. Not so – it is too easy to appeal to those who already think as he does. Plus, they are desperate to see humor where there is none because they feel he's speaking for them.
It's analogous to the Seinfeld episode where Jerry complains to a priest about his dentist-turned-comedian who has become Jewish just so he can tell Jewish jokes. The priest says, "And this offends you as a Jew?" Jerry replies, "No, it offends me as a comedian."
Lalo lowers the bar. -
Guess i won't quit my day job, and I'm retired. I was trying to be sarcastic. Enjoy the day, I'm going outside to photo new Primrose blooms…

When Dating Turns Violent
One in five dating couples experience violence says expert.
Published: Monday, March 7, 2005 at 11:29 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, March 7, 2005 at 2:16 p.m.
Good first dates are mind blowing and every move is filled with spontaneity. The next few often become a blur of fun, giddiness and butterfly stomachs.

Characteristics of Violent Men:
• possessive
• overly jealous
• isolates girlfriend from her friends and family
• traditional gender roles
• verbal and emotional abuse
• mood swings
• alcohol and drug use
• explosive anger
• threatens violence
Characteristics of Women in Violent Relationships:
• physical injury
• dropping out of school
• failing grades
• changes in mood/personality
• use of drugs/alcohol for the first time
• isolation from friends and family
The early months of a relationship are considered the honeymoon stage because they are full of romance and passion. But what happens when that stage fades away: Are you left with Prince Charming or Mr. Wrong?
Every day more and more college students are realizing their relationships are far from perfect -- some even turn violent. In fact, this is a growing trend known as dating violence.
Paige Miller, executive director of the counseling service Turning Point, said this type of violence includes any form of sexual assault, physical violence and verbal or emotional abuse. Even if a woman is not hurt physically, verbal and emotional abuse can be just as painful and often leads to physical violence.
Miller said a man may try to maintain power in the relationship by controlling the woman. She said he may not use physical abuse if he can get her to do what he wants by other means.
"It's sometimes hard to tell who these men are," said Miller. "You can't tell by looking at them."
Though a relationship may start on good terms, small signs can appear to warn the girl of possible violence.
Some men become jealous easily and want to know where their girlfriend is at all times. Others make their girlfriend choose between her friends and him.
Miller said these are the men who pick up their girlfriend from class and yell at her if she talks to another guy.
Startling Figures
A misconception most women have is that violent relationships only happen to married couples. However, women between the ages of 19 and 29 report more violence by intimate partners than any other ages, according to Turning Point data.
Twenty percent of all dating couples in the United States are in violent relationships.
Melanie Miller, director of the UA Women's Resource Center, said one in five dating couples experience some sort of violence.
Miller said dating violence is somewhat new. After looking at domestic violence, researchers noticed violence was starting in relationships at a younger age.
"The research on violence in this area has just begun," she said.
Firsthand Research
Brooke Thackerson, a junior business major, said she recently realized her previous relationship was violent.
"I never knew there was a term for how he was treating me," Thackerson said. "Although he didn't hit me, he was still violent in other ways."
Thackerson, who was previously in an eight-month relationship, said it took her a while to finally see that her ex-boyfriend was abusive toward her. She said he constantly yelled at her, and threatened her when she tried to break up.
"He always tried to control me," Thackerson said. "He once got mad at me because I gave a guy a ride home from a bar, even though I was only gone for about five seconds."
Thackerson said her friends saw the way he treated her, and told her this was not normal boyfriend behavior. While breaking up with him, she was scared and worried about what he might do.
"I wish I would have seen the signs sooner," Thackerson said.
What to Do
Students worried they are in a violent relationship can contact either the University's Women's Resource Center or Turning Point for help. Both offer counseling services, and help women relocate to a safe place. These centers can also help women press charges against their attacker if wanted.
The UA Women's Resource Center, located at the Russell Student Health Center, is free and confidential for all students, faculty and staff. Turning Point offers a 24 hour crisis line at (205) 758-0808.

Hellhole Canyon hike
... but hey... It's water. We sat there for a bit cooling off and recovering from our boulder scramble and then set off to return to the car. It took us 4 hours to complete that hike. The Flats decided to stay back at the B&B today since the temperatures were in the mid 90s....pretty hot for this time of the year. They were hanging out by the "clothing optional" pool so no pictures were taken. Cris ...
The Slot Trail
We headed north towards the eastern side of the park to head to another popular trail called the Slot. The Slot is named because it is a slot canyon carved out of the densely packed sediment by running waters from a flash flood. The Slot is a very short trail - a mere 1 mile out and back but it is an interesting trail in that at the most narrow point of the slot, ...

To Hell and back
... had to go the long way round over the top! Correction, Alan insists that should be "more muscular" hikers... After 2 hours we stopped for our picnic and then, encouraged/shamed by two "seniors" with walking poles we pushed on up to the waterfall. Another 2-hour to schlep back down again by which time it was seriously hot. We felt like extras from the "High Chaparral" (that's a ...
Hi-ho-hi-ho, a-hiking we will go!
... a fantastic experience. Walking through the acres of cactuses and tall ocotillo shrubs with their scarlet flowers, we went deeper and deeper into the canyon. After a couple of hours we reached the palm oasis which has grown up around a mountain spring. Apparently there are flash floods here in the summer when the temperature gets up to around 52 degrees C! Not quite that hot for us but well over 30 which ...

The U.S. Senate has confirmed John Brennan as the next director of Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).
Currently the counter terrorism adviser to the U.S. President Barack Obama, Mr. Brennan was nominated by a vote of 63 to 34 on Thursday.
The vote was delayed by a 13-hour long filibuster by Republican Senator Rand Paul of Connecticut in pursuit of more information about the administration's domestic drone policy.
Welcoming the nomination, Mr. Obama said that the Senate has recognised Mr. Brennan's qualities and determination to keep U.S. safe along with his commitment to work with Congress and build relationships with foreign partners.
"With John's 25 years of experience at the Agency, our extraordinary men and women of the CIA will be led by one of their own. I am especially appreciative to Michael Morell for being such an outstanding Acting Director and for agreeing to continue his service as Deputy Director," he said.
He added that the timely accurate intelligence is absolutely critical to disrupting terrorist attacks, dismantling al-Qaeda along with its affiliates and meeting the broad array of security challenges that we face as a nation.
"John's leadership and our dedicated intelligence professionals will be essential in these efforts. I am deeply grateful to John and his family for their continued service to our nation," he said.
The vote on confirmation was moved through the Senate as Mr. Paul lifted his filibuster after receiving response to his question from the Attorney-General, Eric Holder.
"Does the President have the authority to use a weaponised drone to kill an American not engaged in combat on American soil? The answer to that question is no," according to Mr. Holder's letter to Mr. Paul.
"This is a major victory for American civil liberties and ensures the protection of our basic Constitutional rights. We have Separation of Powers to protect our rights. That's what government was organised to do and Constitution was put in place to do," Mr. Paul said.

I bought a clip-on light from home depot and put a plant grow bulb in it.Works great.
I have a 28 gallon sump/refugium. At least it will be a refugium soon. Just curious, what type of lighting do you have set up for your refugium?
I bought a clip-on light from home depot and put a plant grow bulb in it.Works great.
use a 50/50 compact florescent, above 6000k
I am trying to make sure I do this as cost effective as possible so that my electric bill doesn't blow up. Won't I need different bulbs like my display tank? How long are lights typically on for the refugium?
I used this,
Energy eficient reflector.
It's working great.

My new Thread:
FOWLR: 750 Gallon Display Tank - 1,000 Gallon overall system water
First we need to know what's going to be living in there. keeping coral requires much different light then algae, fish, crabs etc.
If you plan to keep coral in there you will need a better rig. If you are growing macroalgae a clamp light and grow bulb will be fine. My grow bulb ran 18 hours a day for 3 years before I dropped my clamp light and cracked the bulb. I think it was either a 13 watt or 23 watt CFL. mine wasn't a flood like pictured above, both styles will work fine with the clamp on light.
On all all four of my refugiums I use this 19watt 5100k bulb screwed into a Home Depot clamp on fixture.
PAR38 Reflector 19 Watt / 5100K: Light Bulbs Etc, Inc.
Shipping is fast!
I replace the bulbs every 10-14 months.
Photoperiod is usually 20 hours on and 4 hours off.
These bulbs have worked extremely well for me over the past several years.

I wanted to have microalgae there. I'll have some live rock as well. Does it make a difference which clamp on fixture I use? I think i had one for a red eared turtle several years ago. These are acutally energy efficient?
The clamp fixture won't make much of a difference. I use an old light fixture from an iguana tank I had years ago. The thing that will save energy is the type of bulb. A CFL (compact fluorescent bulb) will reduce energy AND heat transfer to the tank water, two huge benefits. I use a 13W daylight spectrum (6500 kelvin) bulb on my fuge, it has grown grape caulerpa (spelling?) and chaeto with no problems. The trick to using grow lights is spacing the light close to the macro algae as the light looses energy very quickly when it isn't close to the plant life. Make sure your set-up is very safe, I use a Plexiglas shield to make SURE my light wont accidentally fall into the water and kill me or my livestock. For this reason you should ALWAYS have a GFCI outlet or plug in model protecting everything. Good luck and be safe.

Running Chemi-Pure&Phos-Ban;Chaeto in sump compartment; weekly water-changes(Reef Crystals salt&RO/DI water)
OH mariner has it right. The fixture won't be more or less efficient to the extent that matters, but the bulb will.
you can use this site as a calculator, or calculate use on your own.
A 25 watt light bulb running 24 hours a day will cost $2.05 a month at my local rate.
If I used an incandescent bulb to grow algae I would need at least 60-75 watts for the growth results. running 24 hours a day that would cost me $4.95 a month at my local rate.
Off subject, but when I was running my 2 250 watt halides and 2 96 watt PCs I was spending $33.11 a month just to light the tank! The pumps were an additional $49 a month. These fish tanks eat a lot of power, that's for sure!
Here is the wattage calculator I was using, my local rate is $0.11/kwh.
This would be the formula for any of you that would like to put it in an excel sheet and make all your tank elec. consumes costs:
(((Appliance Watts x hours per day) / 1,000 = kWh Per Day) x Local Rate Cost) x Days in the month (I usually do 30.5 to have an average)
So for the above example from 61scout80:
25watt Bulb x 24 Hours (Day) = 600watts
600watts / 1000 = 0.6 kWh per day
0.6 kWh x $ 0.11 = 0.066 cost per day
0.066 x 31 = $ 2.046 Actual appliance cost per month.

FOWLR: 750 Gallon Display Tank - 1,000 Gallon overall system water
Thanks you guys! I guess it's off to Home Depot of Lowe's this weekend! I'm going to put some of small pieces of live rock. Should I put some of the sand as well?
We have some questions on how to set up a refugium. Could someone give us some help please.
Fish girl,
Start a new thread in the beginners section.
It's better to start your own thread and ask specific questions, rather than hijacking an existing thread thats is only specific to lighting.

By Emily UnglesbeeDTN Staff Reporter
ST. LOUIS (DTN) -- If you want to ruin an agronomist's day, ask him for the best management practices for planting soybeans back into soybeans.
"They're basically asking, what's the best strategy for doing something we shouldn't be doing?" University of Wisconsin agronomist Shawn Conley told DTN, with undisguised frustration. "My number-one recommendation is don't do it!"
Such questions are on the rise among Wisconsin growers as the markets tip in the favor of soybeans, Conley said. "We're going to see more soybean acres out there," he predicted.
While market factors are tempting some growers to plant soybeans for the second year in a row, the practice comes with a host of agronomic issues, such as increased weed pressure, higher disease risk, and more fertility requirements, experts told DTN.
For better or worse, 2015 does promise to be the humble bean's year to shine, confirmed DTN Grain Market Analyst Todd Hultman.
Last week, Informa Economics estimated that U.S. soybean acres will rise 5% to 88 million in 2015, as corn acres contract 2% to 88.6 million.
"The specific numbers will be debated in the months ahead, but the general direction of less corn and more soybeans is generally accepted, as most measures of profitability currently favor soybeans," Hultman explained.
The soybean's place as the preferred commodity is far from permanent or stable, however, Hultman warned.
"Anyone considering planting soybeans in 2015 should be aware new-crop prices have plenty of bearish risk, especially if South America comes through with another record crop," he pointed out.
If growers plant the predicted 88 million acres of soybeans and the weather cooperates, the U.S. could produce a 4-billion-bushel crop, he explained. The result would be another 240 million bushels in ending supplies that are already estimated at 410 million bushels in 2014-15. "Another year of good weather has the potential to bring November 2015 soybeans down to $7," Hultman concluded.
There is one creature out there who would love to see growers plant soybeans back-to-back, Iowa State University plant pathologist Greg Tylka noted: the soybean cyst nematode.
The nematode first emerged in U.S. fields in the 1950s and since then has made itself at home, particularly in the soils of Soybean Belt states like Illinois, Iowa, and Indiana. The pest reproduces on the roots of soybean plants, robbing them of yield and plant health in the process.
In 2014, Iowa growers saw surprisingly high SCN reproduction, most likely because the most common source of resistance -- PI 88788 -- continues to erode, Tylka noted.
A second source of resistance, known as Peking, is rare and accounts for only 2% of all SCN-resistant soybean varieties. As a result, growers with a history of SCN who want to plant beans again will find few good options come seed selection for 2015, Tylka said. "The best solution in that situation is don't do it," he said.
PI 88788 is composed of four or five genes, so soybean varieties can sport different combinations of this type of resistance, but there is no way for growers to know which genes are in their soybean selections.
The best bet is to pick different soybean varieties from last year to increase the chances of getting a different arrangement of genes, Tylka said. However, since multiple companies can market identical soybean varieties under different names, this tactic will only work if you stay within one seed company, he added.
Growers can also select from the small pool of soybean varieties with the Peking source of resistance. Iowa State University releases an annual assessment of soybean varieties' performance against SCN, along with the source of resistance in each one. Growers can find the 2014 results here: http://goo.gl/….
Some companies also sell seed treatments that are designed to give additional protection against the nematode, such as Syngenta's Clariva Complete, Bayer's Poncho Votivo, and Bayer's new seed treatment, ILeVO, a product originally designed to protect against SDS.
Tylka said Clariva did show some slight yield improvements and nematode suppression in small plot trials from Iowa State last year. Also, ILeVO consistently knocked nematode reproduction on susceptible soybean varieties down to the level of resistant varieties in greenhouse trials, Tylka found.
Foliar soybean diseases such as white mold and frogeye leaf spot can also build up inoculum in fields that stay in soybeans, warned Iowa State plant pathologist Daren Mueller. If conditions are right for these diseases in 2015, bean-on-bean producers will find themselves at increased risk for an outbreak.
Ironically, growers who saw sudden death syndrome (SDS) in their fields in 2014 might get a break from a bean-on-bean rotation. Preliminary results from a study by Iowa State plant pathologist XB Yang showed that the SDS fungus can build up its numbers on corn residue as much, if not faster than, on soybean residue. "It suggests the pathogen has evolved to thrive in a corn-soybean rotation," Mueller noted.
University of Missouri weed scientist Kevin Bradley is all too familiar with soybean-on-soybean farming, a common practice in the Show Me State, at a cost to weed control.
"We have to be that much more vigilant from a weed control standpoint," he told to DTN in an email. "The pigweeds (waterhemp) are even more likely to proliferate in continuous soybean systems, and I believe other weed shifts can occur as well if it is a continuous Roundup Ready soybean system."
Weeds such as toothed spurge and Asiatic dayflower, which emerge late and tolerate glyphosate, can become much more troublesome in a soybean-on-soybean situation, he warned.
Since growers will be dealing with the same crop, they can also expect to see the same weed pressure and the same line-up of pre- and post-emergence herbicide products. The risk of weed resistance and the difficulty of controlling already resistant weeds skyrocket, Bradley noted.
"These are the situations where we must have herbicide mode of action rotation," he said. If possible, growers should even try to rotate between different cropping systems like Liberty Link and Roundup Ready soybeans, he added.
Growers who plant back into soybeans should be prepared to take soil tests and supplement accordingly, Conley said.
"Do not skimp on potassium," he warned. "Soybean is a high-demand user of K, [and] fertility deficiencies often exacerbate disease incidence and severity."
A soybean plant can also remove nutrients such as phosphorus, calcium, magnesium and sulfur from a field. Soybeans are able to fix nitrogen from the soil, but deficiencies can still occur, particularly later in the season with high-yielding beans.

I went to the Human Resource office, but its door was locked and no one opened the door to answer me. I saw a couple waiting for an interview, so I waited there. Then one of the employees who was passing by asked me if she could help, then she said I should wait and the person I had interview with is gonna be with me soon. I waited for one hour and a half. The couple who were there before me got disappointed and left. Finally he showed up. He was a very nice and friendly man. He appologized for the delay. He went through the interview questions and asked about my schedule. It took maybe around 20 minutes. He said it's gonna be hard for me to go to school 4 days a week and work 3 days a week and I said it's not hard for me. After a little chatting he asked me if I had any questions, so I asked how many hours is a part time job there? he answerd 6 to 25 hours per week.

Deputy coroner killed in Somerset Co. crash
By: WJAC Web Staff
MILFORD TOWNSHIP, Pa. -- A Somerset County official died following a two-vehicle crash Wednesday morning, caused by icy road conditions, officials said.
Officals said Somerset County Deputy Coroner James Hahn was killed when the car he was driving collided head-on with another vehicle on Water Level Road in Milford Township at about 9:30 a.m. Wednesday.
State police at Somerset said the crash happened when a 17-year-old male driving the other way lost control on the icy road and crossed into the other lane, hitting Hahn's car.
Somerset County Coroner Wallace Miller said Hahn was also a retired Somerset borough police officer. Miller said Hahn, 73, had retired from the police force in 2006 before joining the coroner's office.
The road was closed for hours as police investigated the crash.
Police said the teenage driver suffered moderate injuries.

I saw an amazing pair of shorts online recently and was inspired to make my own pair. I started with BurdaStyle's Ruby shorts pattern as a base. I altered the front quite a bit, added pockets, used an invisible zip on the side, and added a buttoned flap on the waistband to cover the top of the zipper. The materials were all purchased secondhand, excluding the invisible zipper. The buttons are actually made from coins! These shorts are perfect to wear to my summer job at the pool!
Also on my blog!
Striped cotton, invisible zip, and coin buttons.

Not too big, not too small Suzanne from Fresno, CA– Verified Buyer What's there to say? It's a waste basket. It's metal, round, and at a size that was hard to find. It's not tiny like a bathroom waste basket, and not mondo like a kitchen receptacle. It was just the size and style I was looking for to go into our design office with industrial accents. |

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Media making inroads on reporting head injuries: study
There has been a dramatic improvement in some news reporting on the severity and impact of concussions and serious brain injuries in hockey but journalists shouldn't get carried away patting themselves on the back, according to a study of coverage in four North American newspapers.
Michael Cusimano, a neurosurgeon at Toronto's St. Michael's Hospital, says in a study of selected news coverage over the past 25 years that there's plenty of room for improvement regarding the print media's coverage of the issue.
"The accuracy of medical information is pretty good, let's say a B-plus or A-minus," Cusimano said. "In terms of being action oriented towards making the game safer, I hold people to a higher standard and I would give a C-plus or a B-minus.
"We could do much better but I think we're moving up. In the past I'd say we were closer to an F but now we're taking baby steps forward, which is encouraging."
Cusimano's study, which is published in the peer-reviewed, open-access medical journal PLOS ONE, examined the coverage of sports-related traumatic brain injuries in the Toronto Star, Vancouver Sun, New York Times and Chicago Tribune. The papers were selected to provide Canada-U.S. content and cover east and west areas while encompassing Original Six cities as well as expansion-era NHL locales.
The study examined if reporting themes changed over time and specifically looked at a total of 541 newspaper articles published between 1998-2000 and 2009-2011. The articles were retrieved using the ProQuest database, an online periodical index administered by the Cambridge Information Group.
Cusimano's study examines only what has been reported in the four newspapers, and not how or if public opinion of head injuries in hockey has changed over time. But he said newspapers can be important tools in educating the public about head trauma.
"The media can play a critically important role in this whole story that's been playing out these many years," he said. "One thing this study highlights is the important role the media and personalities in the media can play in making the sport safer and actually strengthening the sport for future generations."
The study found the Canadian papers discussed hockey aggression more in recent reports and over time the role of equipment shifted from protecting to potentially becoming a potential cause of injury. More recently, according to the study, stories dealt more with the severity and personal impact of head injuries and violence.
By comparison, American papers spoke less frequently about aggression contributing to head injuries in hockey.
"In both Canada and the United States, we see accurate reporting of the medical side of things more frequently," Cusimano said. "But there is still the sense, in both media to a certain extent, that aggression and violence are part of the sport.
"Early we saw things almost to the point where promoting aggression as a way to incite interest. You see that a little bit more in the U.S., but certainly in Canada. This recent shift towards a condemnation of needless aggression and violence like in staged fights and that kind of thing, we see that a little bit more and there's a shift there."
Cusimano said this was particularly evident following Canada's win over the United States in the 2010 Olympic gold-medal game in Vancouver.
"After the last Olympics ... the Toronto Star said: 'Canadians were just treated to some amazing hockey at the Olympics and nowhere was fighting or head-hunting seen. The game can survive and thrive without it,' " he said. "That's pretty telling to come from Canada.
"I think there's a recognition in the Canadian media to almost preserve hockey, to keep it going and prevent it from, it might be extreme to say, becoming extinct. There's a desire to keep it in a way that preserves the excitement but also addresses the issue of keeping youth safe playing the sport."
