I am still fairly new at making soap and made the dreadful mistake of using some metal molds. When I took the soap out, the lye had eaten through parts of the metal. Is my soap ruined? Or can I still use it? I wasn't sure if the metal leeches into your soap so you shouldn't use it anymore? Can you just wash off the outside layer of soap? Any advice would be appreciated! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Hi, I did the same thing when I was new at making soap. I poured my lye water through a metal strainer which disolved the metal right into the middle of my soap oils. I had no choice but to throw my entire batch away. In your case, I am not 100% sure but here's what I would try. I would slice the sides and bottom of the soap off -- everywhere it touched the metal. If there are no signs that metal has leeched into the middle of the soap, I would let it cure for 3 - 4 weeks. If it doesn't look odd or have an odd smell after curing, I would test a bar on a small patch of skin. If there's no reaction, you may be able to use the soap. On the other hand if there is anything unusual about your soap in the middle, I would throw it away. I've probably tossed out several batches of good soap that I was uncomfortable with for various reasons. If it looks and smells OK inside, then it probably is OK. Trust your feelings and don't worry. Every soaper makes many mistakes in the process of learning. Best of luck. Jan |
mywalton, Using a metal mold can be frustrating at best. A metal mold can not be flexed enough to help release the soap easily , therefore you will have to dig out the soap in many cases. If you had used an aluminum mold, which lye will react with, = not good, I would just toss it and chalk it up to experience. I, at times, use hard plastic hearts which performs like a metal mold; I/we like the shape that these give us, be, like I said above, like metal molds, they are hard to get the soap out. I will wait until the soap shrinks a bit and then try to get the soap out. If that doesnÆt work, IÆll try to heat the bottom of the mold, to get the soap to melt a bit, and then try again to remove the soap. hth |

Calendar of upcoming events, rallies and town hall meetings.
The House and Senate this week passed education funding bills that provide slight increases for K-12 schools, community colleges and universities — but still fall short of providing proper funding for public education.
Saginaw Township Education Association President Peter Tyson presents Buena Vista Education Association President Joe Ann Nash with gift cards donated to Buena Vista teachers.
Saginaw Township school employees raised about $1,200 to help teachers in the Buena Vista School District, who haven't been paid since May 10.
Leaders from across Michigan are calling on Gov. Rick Snyder and state legislators to invest a newfound budget surplus into public schools, to help make up for the massive cuts previously made to K-12 education.
Passage of a last-minute deficit elimination plan and coordination with the state should allow the Buena Vista School District to reopen as early as Friday, nearly two weeks after the school board shuttered the district's doors.
The Buena Vista School District closed its doors this week after running out of money due to gross financial mismanagement by local and state officials.
Local and state officials are facing widespread condemnation for allowing the Buena Vista school district to shut down during the school year after it ran out of money due to gross financial mismanagement.
In the past decade, virtual education has moved quickly to the top of the K-12 public education reform agenda, with proponents arguing that technology revolutionizes teaching and learning at a reduced cost — despite a lack of substantive research to back up those claims.
The lack of research on virtual teaching and learning led the National Education Policy Center, with funding from the Great Lakes Center for Education Research and Practice, to compile the first in a series of objective analyses regarding virtual schools.
Every teacher at Benton Harbor High School will be subject to layoff this summer, and with recent changes in state law, their reinstatement will be based on flawed "performance" measures instead of experience.
Michigan House Republican leaders Tuesday stripped away penalties they earlier inserted into K-12, higher education and community college appropriations bills that would have punished these institutions for legally negotiating "fair share" agreements with their employees.

While the job might be over, the work goes on.

NDP MLA Jenny Kwan asks Rich Coleman to help homeless in Oppenheimer Park
The NDP MLA for Vancouver-Mount Pleasant, Jenny Kwan, has written to the housing minister seeking "urgent assistance" for homeless campers in Oppenheimer Park.
Kwan's letter to Rich Coleman, who's also deputy premier, points out that the campers have compiled a list of 40 homeless people living in the Downtown Eastside park.
"To give you a glimpse of the make-up of the campers; they are singles, couples, men and women, seniors; some are individuals with disabilities or serious chronic illnesses; some have struggled with addiction," Kwan wrote. "There is an expectant woman who is expecting to deliver her baby later this year."
(To read the full letter, click the "downloads" tab above.)
Kwan, whose constituency includes Oppenheimer Park, stated in the letter that the campers are "seeking relative safety and support with and amongst each other".
"There is no question that an effective approach to ending homelessness requires the partnership of all levels of government via a long term comprehensive strategy," she stated. "For the immediate present, I appeal to your Ministry to provide urgent assistance. Offers of secure, affordable, and appropriate housing would go a long way to ensuring the well-being of these constituents."
She pointed out that one aboriginal man told her that "shelters remind some elders of their traumatic residential school experiences".
To her, this indicates a need for "expanded culturally appropriate shelter facilities".
Kwan also mentioned that some of the campers say temporary stays in shelters don't work for everyone.
She closed her letter by saying she's "committed to working cooperatively in any way possible to ensure that individuals facing homelessness in our community are able to access housing in a timely manner".
Makes no diference who you are
When you wish upon a star
You pass the buck to Coleman.
Ms. Kwan found out the hard way that's it's a small world after all.
I thought she is still playing Pluto at Disneyland!
Or the wicked witch!!

Amsterdam Hotels
Amazing Amsterdam
Let's play a game of numbers – 160 canals (more than Venice), 1281 bridges, 7000 historical buildings and more than 60 museums. Amsterdam's attractions are not so much attractions but part of the patterned fabric of its vibrant life. ... Read more »
For years, visitors flocked to Amsterdam's famed coffee shops to enjoy more than a cappuccino. Now, though, the Dutch government is moving to ban anyone except Dutch residents from marijuana-selling premises.
But while the city may look slightly more colourful after a spiffing afternoon, you've never needed to indulge to appreciate Amsterdam. From the cobbled streets of Jordaan and The Jewish Quarter to the Gothic architecture of Oude Kerk, the best way to experience the city is simply to immerse yourself in its quirky and vibrant culture.
Amsterdam is one of the brightest cities in Europe, and it's not just the gaudy neon signs of the Red Light District or the ubiquitous romantic candlelight of the canal dinner cruises that make this so. It's the buzz and throng of a city slightly left of centre that blaze Amsterdam's energy into your heart, leaving that little light flickering inside you long after you've left its shores.
Amsterdam's Top 10
10. Van Altena The best experiences are often the simplest. That is, if you call putting your face to the sky and swallowing one of these fresh, raw herrings 'simple'. |
5. Beginjhof: Another narrow, vaulted passageway? Yes, but this one has a light at the end of the tunnel – a charming, quiet garden surrounded by some of Amsterdam's oldest houses (and ladies). |
9. Madame Tussauds In a city where tacky tourist attractions are not what draw the crowds, Madame Tussauds is the exception. |
4. Anne Frankhuis The emotional battering delivered by Anne Frank's wartime hideout is pretty intense, but the experience is unforgettable. |
8. Heineken Experience There's really no way four levels of interactive beer experiences can be bad. |
3. Van Gogh Museum This self-explanatory museum houses some 200 paintings, 550 sketches and hundreds of letters by the troubled visionary. |
7. Albert Cuyp Market Amsterdam's most popular market, and second most popular sensory experience. |
2. RijksmuseumIn a city with more than 60 museums, it's hard to choose a select few. Just make sure one of them is the Rijksmuseum – the largest in the Netherlands. |
6. Red Light District Underneath the tacky fake glitter are some of Amsterdam's most attractive, um, buildings (and interesting museums!). |
1. The Canals There's a difference between a tourist trap and something justifiably popular – this is the best way to see the canals and Golden Age merchants' houses. |
Amsterdam History
- Old Church – More than 750 years old and the oldest remaining building in Amsterdam.
- New Church in Dam Square – A relative youngster at just 600 years old.
- Royal Palace – Previously City Hall, but upgraded in the early 19th century.
- Anne Frank House – An inspiring visit highlighting her remarkable story from World War II.
- Westerkerk Tower – Stands 85m tall and is the best place to get a view of the city.
Amsterdam Art & Culture
- Van Gogh Museum – Houses the largest collection of the great man's work.
- Rijksmuseum – An imposing building and is the recognized museum of the Netherlands.
- National Monument – A photo opportunity with several other structures of Amsterdam.

- Nine Streets area – Full of diverse designer boutiques and set in a beautiful location.
- Pieter Cornelisz on Hoofstraat – The "5th Avenue" of Amsterdam, with luxury labels everywhere.
- Waterlooplein Square – The home of the city's largest flea market.
- Albert Cuyp Street Market – Amsterdam's most famous market, with many visitors each day.

Amsterdam Sport
- Amsterdam Arena – Home to the mighty Ajax, a stadium with a 52,000-person capacity.

- Jaap Eden Ice Rink – Visit to watch some ice hockey.
- Bleekemolen Race Planet – Try go-karting at either of two exciting indoor tracks.
Amsterdam Local
For a city with few tourist attractions, Amsterdam is packed with tourists – and not just bong-hitting backpackers. Amsterdam's heart might be said to lie in The Dam, but it's the narrow streets of its smaller neighbourhoods that really give you a taste of the city. Here are five top locales to check out.
De WallenA visit to Amsterdam's red-light district is not for everyone, particularly if you're a little too tempted by a photo op – shoot a storefront prostitute and you'll be doused in urine by her by-standing pimp. If you're satisfied with non-corporeal memories and stick to the busy streets, however, this is where you will find some of Amsterdam's prettiest canals and buildings. Among these is the Gothic church Oude Kerk, and The Spinhuis, where the City Fathers used to dispose of 'fallen women'. Less historic but still fascinating (how fascinating depends on your activities directly prior to attending) is the nearby Hemp Museum.
The IJ WaterfrontOnce you've figured out how to pronounce the name of this waterfront neighbourhood (yes, it really is spelt with two capitals – just say 'aye') head over for a range of interesting and mainly maritime attractions, including the Maritime Museum. A recent makeover has seen the disused docks replaced by cultural institutions and restaurants. Artificial islands such as Java-Eiland and KNSM-Eiland are among the areas seeing development, and are pretty cool ways to get a feel for the Amsterdam of the future.
JordaanOriginally a working-class neighbourhood, you'll be hard-pressed to find a working-class-priced bottle of Heineken here these days. The Jordaan is now one of the Netherlands' most upscale neighbourhoods, its narrow streets home to many art galleries and museums such as the Pianola Museum and the enticingly named –and presumably Jimi Hendrix-inspired – Electric Lady Land (which isn't as dodgy as it sounds). Rembrandt was buried in the Westerkerk church after spending the final years of his life in the Jordaan, and Anne Frank House is located on the neighbourhood's edge.
The DamThe Dam is not a gaudy slang term for Amsterdam itself, but the monumental main square built around 1200 on the Amstel River. Inside Dam Square is the limestone Nationaal Monument, dedicated in 1956 to honour the World War II dead. The site hosts a memorial ceremony on 4 May and serves as a hangout for teens the rest of the time. The heart of Amsterdam also houses The Royal Palace of Amsterdam, and the beautiful but deceptively named 15th-century Niuewe Kerk (New Church). And even the most retail-weary males will enjoy a trip to De Bijenkorf, the Netherlands' premiere department store.
The Jewish QuarterTo some locals, Amsterdam is known as 'Mokum', from the Hebrew word for "Sacred Place". The area is still a centre of Jewish life and is a place of vibrancy, most evident in the famous Vlooienmarkt flea market. The Jewish Quarter also houses a few interesting museums, including Rembrandt's House and the Jewish Historical Museum, plus some of the most authentic Dutch food at Greetje. That's a little off the beaten track – but, hey, this isn't the red-light district!
Amsterdam Eat & Drink
Scossa You don't need smoke clouds to have a chilled out, relaxing experience. |
Amsterdam Dinner Cruise Scenic canals and romantic candlelight do not an amazing dinner make. Just kidding, of course they do! |
The Mansion This aptly named complex incorporates two ritzy Chinese restaurants and an upscale club. |
Bridges If eating raw fish from a side-street stall isn't your cup of tea, splash out on the tuna tartare at Bridges – a raw deal you'll love. |
La Rive Located in one of Amsterdam's most luxurious hotels (the Amstel), even the pickiest guests can't fault the food here. |
Proeverij 274 The quintessential canal-side Amsterdam dining experience. Not exactly hidden, but a gem nonetheless. |
Vertigo International cuisine based on seasonal and film influences. Sounds ridiculous, tastes amazing. |
The Grand Amsterdam Sofitel Legend Modesty is clearly not an attribute of The Grand Amsterdam, but they're forgiven on account of the fare. |
The Silver Mirror A gourmet restaurant within a crooked, crumbling old building – don't worry, it was designed to be on a lean. |
De Kas Try a different kind of local green produce at De Kas, an upscale restaurant specialising in the freshest vegetables in Amsterdam. |
Amsterdam Events
The end of April marks Queen's Day – the world's biggest (and most orange) street party.
Horror, anime, cult and thrillers – April's Amsterdam Fantastic Film Festival is one you don't have to pretend to get excited about.
June's Holland Festival includes conferences, workshops, plus more exciting things like music, theatre, dance and films.
Global music and non-Western culture take over Amsterdam for seven days in June, at the Amsterdam Roots Festival.
Hash brownies not doing it for you? Try Taste of Amsterdam at the end of June, where you can have a glass of wine and meet the city's top chefs.
The Kwakoe Festival in July is marked by 20 days of pure dancing, eating and everything else in between. Yes, 20 whole days.
Classical music gets a whole lot cooler at the informal Robeco Summer Concerts, held in summer each year.
August's Uitmarkt is considered to be the largest cultural event in Amsterdam. That's a pretty hefty tag.
September's Robodock Arts Festival is rough, industrial, experimental and smoky. It's can also involve a lot of heavy machinery.
The High Times Cannabis Cup in November is six days of pure hedonism. Hey, you're on holiday…
When To Go
If you can bear snow and bitterly cold temperatures, winter in Amsterdam allows you to skate the canals.
Spring and autumn are generally pleasant, though the weather can change frequently.
Summer temperatures rarely exceed 22°C (72°F) – although enjoyable weather means more crowded streets.
What To Avoid
Amsterdam is a pretty free-wheeling city, but if you want to go green, stick to the coffee houses.
30 minutes spent at the Holland Experience is 30 minutes you could have spent getting an actual Holland experience.
The red light district is a must-see, but be careful what you snap a picture of – unless you want your camera thrown in a canal.
Getting Around
Transport can actually be fun in Amsterdam – locals favour skates and pushbikes
Central Amsterdam is compact, so walking is often your best bet.
Ferries are good even if you don't have a particular destination in mind, offering scenic views of the many canals.

Facebook plans premium video ads and gives views on monetization of Instagram and WhatsApp.
Facebook is in early talks with advertisers about adding premium video advertising to News Feeds, the company said during its earnings call yesterday. It also acknowledged it's in early tests of a mobile ad network, and laid out the vision for ads on Instagram and WhatsApp.
Facebook beat analysts' expectations with an 82 percent increase in ad revenue over Q1 2013. Revenue from advertising in the first quarter of 2014 was $2.27 billion, with mobile ads contributing approximately 59 percent, compared to 30 percent in the same quarter of 2013. This was the strongest growth in ad revenue in three years, the company said.
Chief operating officer Sheryl Sandberg said on the company's earnings webcast that mobile gaming, e-commerce, and consumer packaged goods advertisers made strong contributions to ad revenue last quarter. The company plans to keep the momentum by focusing on three areas, she added: developing new ad products and improving targeting, simplifying tools, and improving measurement.
Sandberg noted that 10 times more advertisers are now using targeting, pointing to Ben & Jerry's use of custom audiences and partner categories to reach 14 million premium ice cream buyers, with 90 percent of the target using mobile devices. The campaign resulted in an 8.1 percent sales lift.
She said that Facebook is now offering tools including custom audience and partner categories to self-service advertisers, while adding "buy now" and "install now" buttons.
Facebook will develop premium video ads, as well as ads on Instagram, she said, but the company does not expect "meaningful contributions" from either this year. She did say that premium video advertising offers a big opportunity. Click-to-play video ads are currently sold on a cost-per-mille (CPM) or cost-per-click (CPC) basis, and Sandberg said that those ad sales explain some of the strong growth in ad revenue. Now, Facebook is in early conversations with advertisers about CPM-based autoplay video ads, but she added, "We want to see autoplay videos be pretty common in consumer News Feeds before we push for ads."
On the earnings webcast, company executives discussed the possibility of ad monetization of acquisitions WhatsApp and Instagram, as well as home-grown Messenger. Chief executive (CEO) Mark Zuckerberg said that Facebook has been focusing on friends and public content for monetization. "With Messenger, we may do more things in private content," he said.
Zuckerberg noted that Facebook apps and services are in different stages of maturity, with the Facebook app the furthest along and the core of the business. While Messenger, Instagram, and WhatsApp are now at the scale of millions, he said, "We'll focus on getting them to 1 billion each before looking at monetization. They are probably a few years away from being big and important businesses for us."
While the total number of impressions on Facebook has decreased, the average price of an ad increased due to more ads being shown in News Feeds. These have higher engagement than right-hand column ads, according to chief financial officer David Ebersman, who has resigned, and will be replaced by David Wehner, currently Facebook's vice president of corporate finance and business planning.
Sandberg said, "The data suggest ads are getting more relevant but there's a long way to go."
Despite predictions that Facebook would lose its cool (and users), Facebook reported that daily active users were 802 million on average for March 2014, up 21 percent year-over-year. Daily mobile users increased 43 percent year-over-year to an average of 609 million.
Facebook's share of social log-ins, a prime source of ad targeting data, fell slightly last quarter, according to Janrain, from 45 percent to 42 percent, while Google's share of log-ins rose to 38 percent.
But Zuckerberg argued that engagement on Facebook is very high: 63 percent of people who use Facebook each month use it every day, while more than 50 percent of users log on six out of seven days in a week.
Sandberg said that Facebook's investments in measurement will continue to pay off, allowing the company to show advertisers comparative return on investment (ROI) as consumers spend more time on digital media than traditional media, driven by mobile usage. She said, "As consumer time and attention shifts, we think ad dollars shift, as well."

This is probably something really simple but its been racking my brain for ages now. Basically what i want to do is write some text over an image. But for some reason it won't let me.
Code:<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">   <TITLE>Untitled Page</TITLE>

The only way to do this, is using an image as a background.
By using a div you can set the background image to the image you wish to write over, and then simply write over the image.
Lets use your div as an example:
Also, try and restrain from using folders and extensions which have spaces... such as "My Pictures". If your images are in the same folder/directory as your webpages you can simple reference them as logo.gif without adding the rest of the directories.Code:<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">   <TITLE>Untitled Page</TITLE>

Hello Wardy,
make the logo image your background. Then you can put text over it.
Typically you would have a header div with a background... like this:
Code:#header { width: 699px; height: 45px; background-image: url(My Pictures/logo.gif); }

I see that you are using a lot of deprecated (compared to current techniques) and needless code for what you wanna achieve.
I won't get into every detail but there is no text attribute and the font element is outdated and shouldn't be used anymore.
Let me guess, you don't know HTML and CSS and you're using a WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) editor, right? You should learn a little HTML and CSS because those editors (especially the bad ones) don't help very much and one shouldn't trust them (what we can see as we speak).
You can place text over an image by making the image a background of the element where the text is inside, like:
or by using the positioning correctly:Code:
text here

But I don't recommend the latter method as this isn't very flexible and will lead to more problems if you don't know what yu're doing.Code:
text here

Edit: Damn, I was too slow again. However, after looking at your code again it seems that the folloing is the actual direct problem:
The image will be above the text unless its z index is lower than the text's. Or to say it vice versa: The element with higher z index will be above elements with lower z index.Code:

A very simple example, properly coded (Live Copy):
Code:<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">   <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"> <title>CF 106694</title>
To boldly go where no one has gone before.

For every complex problem, there is an answer that is clear, simple, and wrong.

Do you guys know what bullet they use in their "Factory New" JHP?
It used to be the speer gold dot. Better to check their web site to make sure.
While I'm aware this is a .45acp thread, the statement that "Black Hills ammo is superb quality, although a bit on the "COLD" side for velocity" caught my attention.
In 9mm, the Black Hills loading of the 124gr GD sizzles along at about 1250fps from a 4" barrel. Add 25-50fps onto that for a 5".
I would trust it, though from a 3" barrelled .45, I'd likely go with a lighter weight.
Josh <><
I'd go with 185gr or 200gr.
I've had great luck with the 115gr
+P 9mm and 125gr +P 38spl from
Black hills.Both of these loads use
the Speer gold dot bullets and are
loaded faster than most.1300 fps
for the 9mm and 1050 fps for the
38spl,both from 4' barrels.Black
hills uses both GD's and XTP's
depending on the load.
Been using Black Hills 230gr. JHP for about 2 yrs. now. So far I have no complaints. It is the Gold Dot bullet. It feeds fine and is accurate. l have it in both my Wilson Protector and CQB Compact. I haven't had to shoot anybody so can't comment on effectiveness!
I actually live a few hours away from the Black Hills factory, and bring in state, I thought I'd support them. I had a box of Speer Gold Dot 124 +ps in 9mm, And I shot the rest of them, and went to buy a new box at the gun shop, they don't carry them anymore, no call in this area. So, I had heard good things about Black Hills, so I called them up to bend their ear for a minute or two.
The man I spoke with was very freindly, and helpful, and obviously a gun guy, he told me that they run quality control checks daily on every batch of ammo they make, and they pride themselves on quality.
I spoke with him about the Speer bullets, and loads, Versus the Black Hills loads. He said until this spring, the 9mms were loaded with the Gold Dot, but I believe he said because of supply, they switched to Hornady XTPs in that load anyway. He said they really liked the Speer Bullets, and liked the Hornadys as well, and said even though they are not as dome shaped (which, IMO, would feed easier) as the Gold Dots, the more come shaped XTPs were performing very well in thier tests, and few reliably, and were not coming apart in testing.
I am a pretty big fan of the Gold Dot, just because I guess the magazines and internet say I should be, and I've heard the XTP isn't bonded as well as the Gold Dots, so I'm a *little* reluctant to switch, but I have no reason not to be I suppose.
Shooting-- I had some Winchester 115 FMJ walmart specials, the remaining Speer 124s +ps, and a new box of Black Hills 115 +ps, that were a little older, maybe 8 months, so they still had the Gold Dots instead of XTPs. I shot them, there was a marked difference, obviously, between the +P and the FMJs, but IMO, the 115 Black Hills seemed hotter than the Speer loads, by the Chronograph in my hand.
I have heard nothing bad about Black Hills, and they feed well, although they are a little shorter than the Speers were, and are plenty hot, 1300fps, 430 ft lbs, 4" barrel, I think that's pretty hot. The Speers punched through 4 layers of steel on an old pickup box out behind the barn, and turned into a perfectly mushroomed bullet, I found it in the dirt behind the box, I was quite impressed, and that was a 115. 124's performed the same, but couldn't find the bullet to compare, I'm sure it would have looked the same, no weight loss.
Anyway, I recommend them from A-a friendly person to talk to at the factory, and B-being from my state. And a good reputation, for power and accuracy. If I ever find anything contrary, I'll let you know! Crexrun
Walther P22, Velocitors, on my side. Ruger P95, Speer Gold Dot 124 +Ps, bedside. Mossberg 500, full of steel shot behind the door. And a Princeton Tec Genesis 3 watt led and a Gerber Ridge knife! Don't steal MY Coors Light!

That the carriers want control of this. I'm not sure why the need to be involved to be honest. My using my phone to make a payment is a decision for me and my phone, it has nothing to do with the network. The networks are basically fearful that this pushes more power into the hands of the phone makers and want to try and prevent that. On one hand they're right that obviously a global powerhouse of security such as RIM will benefit from this hugely. But ultimately the buck should stop with the phone manufacturer. As best as I know, you can't remote wipe and set up ridiculous security on SIMs, you can on phones.

Chrome versus Firefox: I like things like feeds and history drop downs Target location in URL bar: Took a while to get used to but I like the change Status bar versus Addon bar: I like the ability to customise Chrome is a nice browser for some people and it's a good third alternative for me.

On top of that, the BBC pimps the show off to stations like Dave and Blighty. How is that worth my money. The only good thing about the fee is that some of it goes towards Channel 4 who do actually produce content I want and watch but even then, I watch most of that on 4oD anyway. The license fee is antiquated and should be abolished. Let's see how the BBC far when they have to balance their books.

ABC News' Sunlen Miller reports: President Obama called the April jobs numbers showing the nation lost another 539,000 jobs last month "encouraging" yet still a "sobering" economic toll.
"While it's somewhat encouraging that this number is lower than it's been in each of the past six months, it is a sobering toll," the president said. "It underscores the point that we're still in the midst of a recession that was years in the making and will be months or even years in the unmaking; and we should expect further job losses in the months to come."
Citing consumer spending, home sales, and construction spending numbers that are showing progress, Obama said that while the nation has a long way to go before the recession is over, "the gears of our economic engine are slowing beginning to turn."
The president's event today focused on a new call by the administration to help unemployed workers gain new skills and education while they are looking for a new job.
"Now is the time to change unemployment from a period of 'wait and see' to a chance for our workers to train and to seek the next opportunity – so when that new and better day does come around, our people, our industry, and our entire country are ready to make the most of it."
Obama said that this starts by changing "the senseless rules" that discourage displaced workers from getting education and training, and announced new steps to give people the chance to use the unemployment system "not as a safety net, but a stepping stone."
Under the administration's plan an unemployed person would no longer lose their temporary financial support under unemployment, if they enroll in a training program, or higher education. Additionally, they would be able to qualify now for federal money to attend higher education programs.
"We'll open new doors to higher education and job training programs to recently laid-off workers who are receiving unemployment benefits. And if those displaced workers need help paying for their education, they should get it – that's why the next step is to make it easier for them to receive Pell Grants."
The president has ordered Secretary of Education Arne Duncan and Secretary of Labor Hilda Solis to work with states and institutions of higher education and encourage them not only to allow these changes, but inform all workers receiving unemployment benefits of the training programs and financial support open to them. He also announced the launch of a new Web site — Opportunity.gov — to help workers take advantage of these opportunities. The president has tasked Dr. Jill Biden, a community college professor, to lead the national effort to raise awareness about what the administration is doing to open up these new opportunities.
In the weeks ahead the president said he will lay out a fundamental rethinking of job training, vocational education, and community college programs.
"So this is a good start. But it is only a start. These steps are just a short-term down payment on our larger goal of ensuring that all Americans get the skills and education they need to succeed in today's economy."

Pay Grade: Having an AS vs. a BS
0Oct 13, '12 by MsAlbaI have a friend who got her BSN over a year ago and she told me she only makes .25 more than the nurses with an ASN. Is this really the difference? I hardly see how going to school for two extra years will only get you a quarter more an hour.
0Oct 13, '12 by Rose_Queen, MSN, RN GuideMy facility does not differentiate between ADN and BSN. No pay difference at all for BSN or certification, although in order to reach the highest level of the clinical ladder, one must either hold a BSN or be certified.
4Oct 13, '12 by llg GuideMy hospital does not offer any pay differential for having a BSN -- but they won't hire any new nurses unless they have it. There is a HUGE pay difference between having a job (and/or opportunities for advancement) and being unemployed (or not eligible for advancement).
Job opportunities for ADN and diploma grads are shrinking. There are still some opportunities out there, but there are a lot fewer of them than there used to be. As someone just entering the profession, you need to plan on getting that BSN (either now or later) if you want to have good career opportunities open to you in the long run. It's not about immediate cash in your pocket -- it's about having long term options for the decades to come. -
0Oct 13, '12 by MsAlbaThank you all! I guess I just thought it would be more pay but having more job opportunity is well worth it.
llg, I'm not worried about immediate cash in my pocket. As of right now I have no job and am going to school FT so even just having the ASN is great for me. I wont be struggling with bills and I'll have extra money.
The thing is that I was offered a position in the nursing program at the community college I go to now and also one at a university. At the community college I'll get my AS degree and it's three days a week. The university is the BSN program but it's 5 days a week 8-5. I'm trying to look at the pros and cons of both because I have a son and a husband who is working and going to school as well.
Either way I will go for my BSN. My final goal is a Masters. -
0Oct 13, '12 by RubySlippers06You could always do the ASN and then bridge to your BSN while working. That is what I chose to do bc I have two children and it is a lot cheaper and less time consuming if I get the ASN first. Also, I can take the NCLEX a year and a half earlier. Around here, if you work as a tech while in school you can usually transition to an RN once you hve a license.
0Oct 13, '12 by MsAlbaRuby, I also had a friend in the community college program and they hired her as a nurse tech after her first semester. If she passes the NCLEX in a few weeks they are hiring her on.
It's just a really hard decision because my son is so young... he'll end up being with my mother in law ALL the time if I do the BSN right now (which is really the best option) and I'm not ok with that. -
3Oct 13, '12 by CPhT2RNstudentDo the assoc. degree, then finish the BSN online. Where I used to live there was no difference between ASSOC. RN and BSN. So I moved and I get $5/hr for having my BSN + CCRN. That is in addition to having a higher base salary. If you are willing to move you can find someone that will compensate you fairly.
0Oct 13, '12 by StephalumpThere's no pay difference here. There is a hiring difference, though. Some hospitals are no longer hiring ADN new grads.
0Oct 13, '12 by RubySlippers06I have two young children as well. For my career, it would have been better for me to go straight for my BSN. However, I'm not okay with letting my kids be in daycare from 0630 to 1630 five days a week. (The BSN program is a 45 min commute) Also, my husband is deploying again fairly soon an he hasn't even been back an entire year yet. Right now his unit is in the field for two weeks and he is going for training again between thanksgiving and Christmas. They are going to be without their dad for the majority of the next two years. I can't leave them with 1/2 a mom too.
With the ADN/ASN program here, I can take 8 credits a semester as opposed to 15. For my situation, the ASN is a better choice right now.

There are many factors you need to take into account for the health of people globally; mental, oral and psychical health is just a few. Mental health is something that affects 1 in 4 people throughout a year, from mild depression where many cases go undetected or something as serious as Alchemizers which is fatal. Oral health because there are a lot of germs in the human mouth and a hygiene technique such as flossing can help reduces the chances of heart disease.

A mother says her 7-year-old autistic child acted beyond her wildest imagination and summoned help after she was injured in a bad fall.
Lisa Kirby's injuries were so bad that she spent the night and the next day at the hospital. When she finally came home, she told Local 6 she still can't believe how her autistic son, Joshua, jumped into action.
Kirby's first thought was being home alone with her autistic son.
"There was no one else here to help me. I didn't know what I was gonna do," said Kirby. "I was just scared for Joshua. That was my main concern was Joshua, nobody being here for him."
But little did she know, Joshua had found her phone, dialed 911, and for 11 minutes calmly took directions from the 911 dispatcher.
Joshua: I need some help!
Dispatcher: Hello. What happened?
Joshua: Mommy got hurt!
Dispatcher: How did she get hurt?
Joshua: Mommy fell down.
"Me and my husband were both amazed. We're like, how did he do that? Because I didn't even know he knew what 911 was," said Kirby.
With the phone in hand, Joshua got a towel for his mom's head and unlocked the door for paramedics — as instructed by the dispatcher. By the time mom was finally able to speak, his call had already brought help to the front door.
"He is a little hero," said Kirby, who thinks he learned to dial for help after a recent visit by firefighters to his school.
Her lesson to every parent: Never underestimate your child.

Thank you for your comments. Yes you are correct, the name of the game is definitely trust, authority credibility and ongoing engagement with your audience.
Hi Sandeep,
Thank you for your feedback. It is greatly appreciated.
Hi Kent,
Yes it is a double edged sword. I belive we will continue to see more of this type of services being provided, as Facebook looks to capitalise on what l believe is its greatest asset... data.
They also will evolve to providing services and apps which keeps thier communitites within the facebook Universe.
It has a database second to none, and now that its a public company will need to add value to its shareholders.
Hi Mahendra Varma,

CNN needs help. The one-time cable-news king trails Fox News, and February ratings show CNN trailing MSNBC, too.
Proof that ex-NBC chief Jeff Zucker has his work cut out for him. Zucker took the reins at CNN just over a month ago, firing talent and, according to the New York Post, calling on reporters and editors "to broaden their definition of news and include a greater selection of topics."
Good advice, but no wonder ratings are dropping if the results of change are:
Zucker, halting the ratings slide at CNN will take tightening the definition of news, not broadening it to… this?
Get the CNN brand back to what's missing from primetime cable news: news for grownups.
How refreshing would calm, measured, professional, unbiased broadcast journalism be for the primetime demo?
Christian Munson is an award-winning communications professional at PadillaCRT.

Chris Paul has season high, fellow All-Star Blake Griffin has 27 to win heading into break
LOS ANGELES -- Chris Paul and Blake Griffin had a little business to take care of before jetting off to the All-Star Game. They helped deliver a morale-boosting victory to the Los Angeles Clippers, who at 20-11 are off to their best start since 1974-75.
Paul scored a season-high 36 points and Griffin added 27 in a 103-95 victory over the Denver Nuggets on Wednesday night that snapped a two-game skid in their final game before the break.
The teams had split their first two meetings, with the Nuggets winning 112-91 nearly three weeks ago.
More Nuggets-Clippers Coverage
The short-handed Nuggets forced the Clippers to rely on Chris Paul again, leaving questions to be answered after the break, Jovan Buha writes. Dime
It was All-Star Chris Paul to the rescue Wednesday night after he couldn't carry his Clippers in two previous losses, Arash Markazi writes. Blog
• Lob City Ledger
• Clippers Report | ESPN Los Angeles
"They pretty much embarrassed us on national TV last time so it was good to get this win and get our confidence going into the break," Paul said.
Paul and Griffin are headed to the game as starters in Orlando. They'll return to a team that is No. 3 in the West and atop the Pacific Division to open the second half of the lockout-shortened season.
"That's when it gets serious, after the break," Paul said. "Definitely a lot of room for improvement. Obviously we haven't peaked yet and we can keep getting better."
Griffin had 12 rebounds, and DeAndre Jordan had 10 points and 16 boards as the Clippers improved to 12-4 at home.
"We feel pretty good," Griffins said. "Obviously we lost some ones that we didn't want to and we shouldn't have, but that's going to happen. We got to keep plugging."
Arron Afflalo scored 20 points and rookie Jordan Hamilton added a season-high 18 points for the injury-riddled Nuggets, who lost their fifth in a row on the road. They played without Danilo Gallinari, Ty Lawson, Nene and Rudy Fernandez.
The teams played it close throughout with 23 lead changes and 16 ties.
Paul scored 17 straight points over the end of the third quarter and start of the fourth that extended the Clippers' lead to 85-79.
"The guy that beat us was Chris Paul. He had incredible control of the game," Nuggets coach George Karl said. "We had a lot of young guys out there, and he found a lot of easy shots and made them. He played spectacular. The last couple of games we got beat by [Kevin] Durant and Paul, and those are two guys who know how to do that."
The Nuggets answered with seven in a row, including three by Al Harrington, to take a 91-89 lead. Paul was 11-of-12 from the line and had nine assists.
From there, the Clippers outscored Denver 14-4 to end the game. Griffin had six points, making four straight free throws, while the Nuggets couldn't hit from outside. Harrington airballed a 3-pointer and missed another one on the ensuing possession. He finished with 11 points.
"We missed shots that we normally make," Harrington said. "I guess I'm in a little bit of a shooting slump, but the only way you can get through that is to be aggressive, so I'm going to continue to do that."
Denver didn't make a field goal over the final 7:27.
"We had a game plan for [Paul], but we didn't execute it as well as we would have liked or as well as we did the last time we played them," Harrington said. "He just got wiggle room and made a lot of big shots. He moves so slow, he almost lulls you to sleep. We messed up a little bit on our coverages and gave him enough space to get shots off. He wasn't really getting to the basket that much, but he was making his midrange shots."
Paul scored the Clippers' final 12 points of the third, when they led 80-79. Denver led by five midway through the period before Griffin and Paul combined to score seven in a row and briefly put the Clippers ahead by two.
The Nuggets led 54-52 at the break, with neither team leading by more than five points in the first half. Hamilton scored 13 points, missing just two of his six field goal attempts, for the Nuggets. Paul scored all of his 13 points in the second quarter for the Clippers.
Game notes
Clippers coach Vinny Del Negro said F Kenyon Martin's back has been bothering him and he got hit in the ribs in the game. ... Nuggets F-C Nene missed his sixth straight game with a strained left calf. ... Griffin and Paul addressed the fans before the game, with Griffin thanking them for their support during the first half of the season. "We're going to go down to Orlando and try to make you guys proud," Paul added.

This letter is to correct an important omission from last week's Veterans Day coverage.
During the morning Honors Ceremony at the First Baptist Church and the Parade on Main Street, the presentation of the Colors was performed by the Nelson County High School Air Force Junior ROTC Color Guard.
Last week's article made reference to the speaker's question about whether people would basically go about their business and forget our veterans after the ceremony.
I am writing in regards to the article about the cows that were on the front page of the Spencer Magnet on Oct. 22. The article sounds as though my husband and I let our cows roam free. However, that is not the case.
First, this cow issue happened in the summer/fall of 2007.
In times when promises are made politically that may or may not be promises that can be made or kept, I pause to say thank you to Judge Jenkins.
He promised the citizens of Akins Road – and our Magistrate Bill Drury – water, then a road. We have both and done in a timely manner once all the paperwork was in place.
For that, I again say, thanks.
I also wish to thank the road department for the ease of being able to continually travel our road. Thanks.
Let us work together to make Spencer County a home and a playground!
As editor of a community newspaper, I am always trying to walk the fence when it comes to writing news stories. I never want to be seen as being in someone's camp, as they say, especially when it comes to covering local issues.
I want to thank the Spencer Magnet and those that helped to organize last Friday's Trick or Treat on Main Street. I know everyone enjoyed the evening and seeing the happy faces of our community's young people certainly made it all worthwhile.
The opportunity to participate in events like these and to get to know our friends and neighbors better makes living in a small town so enjoyable.
Today is Wednesday, November 5, 2008. We, the people, exercised our right to vote yesterday on probably the largest scale ever. Today we have a new President, and a lot of new faces in our State and Federal Governments.
Win or lose, our lives will continue, with the economy being our main issue. This week is the last week of our fall litter abatement drive, and regardless of our political leanings, the trash needs to be eliminated and, as much of it as possible, recycled.
I have just finished reading Kathy Lynch's article in the October 29 edition of the Magnet. Your front page box "inside today" states that "SCHS students still brown-bagging it"; See A16.
I am still looking at page 16 and do not find any reference to the "brown-bagging it".
The cafeteria has been serving "hot" lunches for months. It would be nice if you could get your facts straight and not place inaccurate information in the Magnet.
We have had many calls within the last few weeks about homeowner insurance rates in areas that city water and fire hydrants are being added. While this will improve our water supply for firefighting this will not reduce your cost for homeowner insurance.

Though at the moment Borgo Santro Pietro's restaurant is only open to hotel guests (and the occasional persistent diner who talks his way in), chef Thomas Briegel is already the talk of Tuscany. The 28-year-old Danish phenom uses fresh ingredients to their fullest effect in both the simple (a Tuscan steak burger) and the sophisticated (tuna tartare with local balsamic vinegar, turbot with garden-fresh pumpkin puree). While dishes are not particularly rooted in the region, Briegel's creativity is a welcome change from the usual pasta and wild boar.
Tip: Sit on the lantern-filled terrace, which also has a fireplace for chilly nights (entrées, $47$50).

ARLINGTON, Va., Oct. 8 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ --The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and System Planning Corporation's TriData division, which specializes in public safety research and consulting, recently completed a three-year study of best fire prevention practices in 10 nations.
The study found many practices that have been associated with dramatic reductions in fire deaths and injuries in these nations. These best practices could help reduce fire deaths and injuries in the U.S. at little or no additional cost, in part by increasing the firefighter's role in prevention efforts.
The research, conducted by staff from TriData and the CDC's National Center for Injury Prevention and Control, Division of Unintentional Injury Prevention, was sponsored by the Federal Emergency Management Agency's Assistance to Firefighters Grant Program and the CDC.
The research found that there has been a dramatic shift in fire service prevention practices in many nations over the past decade. The role of line firefighters has been altered to incorporate more prevention activities, especially home visits in high-risk areas. As part of their integrated risk management efforts, many communities, such Merseyside and West Midlands in England, and Toronto, Ottawa, and Longueil in Canada, include fire service home visits to 50%-100% of all residences over a five year period, starting with the highest risk areas.
The home visits typically check on the existence and operability of smoke alarms, install one if needed, and give one-on-one safety messages to household members. This has led to 40%-50% drops in residential fire deaths in many communities.
Another major trend is increased partnerships between fire services and municipal agencies that deliver home services to citizens. Personnel from social service agencies, with some training from the fire service, can enhance prevention efforts during their ro

Backcountry Access Fiberglass Ruler
Well designed ruler
BCA added a couple features that are really nice. The segments snap to 0, 90, and 180 degrees which is nice for folding into a freestanding T or L shape. Also, each end has 0cm on one side and 200cm on the other. This is nice because you don't have to unfold the whole thing to find the 0cm mark, you just flip it over. I prefer it this way over 0 cm on one side and 0 inches on the other because inches are pointless.

A tour of Ireland can be just the remedy one needs to cure all that ails them and allows for rest and relaxation. If you add a chauffeur to a tour, any worries at all that you may have disappear. A chauffeur means that no one has to miss out on any scenery as they are driving. No one needs to learn how to drive stick, on the wrong side of the car, on the wrong side of the narrow and winding roads.
Your chauffeur can also act as a private tour guide of sorts. Our chaiffeurs are so knowledgeable, they can give you ideas of where to go, how to get there, and tell you little known facts about the places you are in.
*Any one of our tours can be customized to include a chauffeur driver.
Tour Highlights 7 Days / 6 Nights Starts in Dublin / Ends in Dublin Luxury & Castle Hotels Wicklow Mountains & Glendalough Cliffs of Moher and The Burren Connemara Touring |
Arrive in Dublin where your chauffeur will be waiting to bring out of the city to catch your first glimpse of the real Ireland. You will journey through the Wicklow Mountains on your way to your luxury hotel in Kilkenny.
The Wicklow Mountains are one of the most scenic areas in the entire country and will definitely shorten your journey south. If you have the time or the appetite, there are many stop off along the way, including the Irish National Stud and Japanese Gardens or Glendalough. You can also choose to arrive in Kilkenny early and take a look around this wonderful medieval city.
Overnight in Lyrath Estate Hotel
In the morning, after an appetizing breakfast in your beautiful surroundings, your chauffeur will take you to Killarney. You can make this journey as long or as short as you like but we certainly recommend taking the scenic route and visiting the Blarney Stone, Cork City and the fishing town of Kinsale on your way.
Arrive in Killarney as evening falls. This is the perfect time to give your chauffeur the evening off and explore Killarney town. Between the craft shops, pubs, music and restaurants, there is something to suit all tastes on an evening in Killarney.
Overnight at Cahernane House Hotel
It is always recommended to take an entire day to travel the Ring of Kerry. Not only is it quite a long journey at 100+ miles, but it is also a slow one as you will want to stop quite often to take photos, see the various landmarks, and view the spectacular Kerry scenery.
Before you end your day stop off at Ross Castle built in the late 15th century by one of the O'Donoghue Ross chieftains or visit Muckross House & Gardens, a magnificent Victorian mansion and one of Ireland's leading stately homes. The Gardens at Muckross House are renowned world-wide for their beauty.
Overnight at Cahernane House Hotel
Today you depart Killarney for the beautiful Galway city. As with every journey you take in Ireland, there is plenty to break up your journey. Stop off in the town of Dingle on the edge of the Dingle Peninsula and take a ferry across the mouth of the River Shannon.
Head to the coast of County Clare to view the Cliffs of Moher, which rise to heights of almost 700 feet above the churning Atlantic swells. Walk along the top of the cliffs to O'Brien's Tower for great views. Drive through the Burren. Stop off in Galway City and take a walk around for the evening as your hotel is in the city centre.
Overnight at Hotel Meyrick
Today set out along the west coast to Connermara and onto Clifden. Take some stunning pictures of Kylemore Abbey and find somewhere nice in the Connemara region to get some lunch. Make your way back to Galway city where you should spend a few hours. It is a beautiful little city that many consider the most charming in Europe. Be sure to make the short trip to Salthill and take a short stroll along the promenade. Make your way back to your hotel in your own time.
Overnight in Hotel Meyrick
If you have set your sights on spending a lot of time in Dublin, it is better to leave early. It is only a two hour drive to your next hotel so your chauffeur can take you on a tour of Dublin, through Phoenix Park, down O'Connell's Street and past the GPO.
Our advice would be to get left in the city by your chauffeur and to take public transport to see the city. The open top bus tour is the best way to see the city as you can hop on and off at the destinations of your choosing. Have your chauffeur pick you up again in the evening and take you to your castle hotel for your final night in Ireland.
Overnight at Clontarf Castle Hotel
Anything else you would like to do on your final day (depending on time of flight) can be done on this day before your chauffeur takes you to the airport and bids you farewell.
