Nov. 28, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- For the eighth time in the past 11 years, We Energies has won the ReliabilityOne award in the Midwest for the superior reliability of its electric system.
The award is based on the company's performance for the year 2011, and is given annually by PA Consulting Group to utilities that have excelled in delivering the most reliable electric service to their customers.
"Receiving the ReliabilityOne award eight times in the past 11 years is a great recognition of our employees who dedicate themselves to outstanding customer care every day," said Gale Klappa, chairman, president and chief executive officer of We Energies.
All utilities operating electric delivery networks in North America are eligible for the ReliabilityOne award. There are five regional awards -- Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, Midwest, Plains and West. The selection is based primarily on reliability statistics that measure the frequency and duration of customer outages. After provisional recipients are identified, each potential winner undergoes an on-site certification -- an independent review of the processes and systems used to collect, analyze and report a company's reliability results.
We Energies has made significant investments in recent years to strengthen the reliability of its network by rebuilding hundreds of miles of distribution lines, and building and upgrading substations and other infrastructure. The company's forestry management has also been recognized for responsible tree trimming practices to keep branches from coming into contact with power lines. "ReliabilityOne award winners represent the very best our industry has to offer in terms of service quality," said Jeff Lewis, PA Consulting Group's ReliabilityOne program director. "We Energies has once again demonstrated its unwavering commitment to customers by achieving the highest levels of reliability." We Energies serves more than 1.1 million electric customers in Wisconsin and Michigan's Upper Peninsula and more than 1 million natural gas customers in Wisconsin. We Energies is the trade name of Wisconsin Electric Power Company and Wisconsin Gas LLC, the principal utility subsidiaries of Wisconsin Energy Corporation (NYSE: WEC).

"Hop in," Adam said. "I have to get my hair cut for prom." Standing at the curb in front of my driveway, I peered up at the old, red Jeep Wrangler with its large black tires. I nervously climbed in. There were no doors and the top was gone. "Cool," I said, trying to project calmness.
Chances are, if you live in a big city, you're used to fighting bicyclists and motorcyclists for space on the road. And your two-wheeled compatriots are often tricky to find, hiding out in blind spots and whizzing by you at speed. It creates an environment ripe for trouble. Thankfully, Jaguar Land Rover has developed a system that will hopefully cut down on accidents and increase safety for all parties. It's called Bike Sense, and it shouldn't require a whole bunch of new sensors to implement.
Fuel-cells are all the rage in the automotive world at the moment, thanks to Honda and Toyota, but while fuel cell technology is particularly ill-suited to powering cars, it can be quite handy in other ways. Case in point: the Kraftwerk. No, not the pioneering German electronic band, this Kraftwerk is a hand-held fuel-cell-powered recharging device ("Kraftwerk" is German for "power plant," and the Kraftwerk charger was developed in Germany).
This has to be, hands-down, the coolest thing you you'll watch all week. Water droplets are literally bouncing up and down like they're on a trampoline once they hit a hydrophobic metal surface. It's not magic, it's physics. A research team at the University of Rochester led by Professor Chunlei Guo published an article in the Journal of Applied Physics this week outlining their development of a metal surface that acts as an ultra-efficient water repellent.
If you've seen a Land Rover LR2 within the last year or two, you may notice that the styling is a bit, how do we say it, old. The car has been on sale in the U.S. since 2007, making it a bit of a dinosaur, at least aesthetically speaking. That all changes with the re-introduction of a nameplate we haven't seen stateside in years. Yes, that's right; Disco Fever is once again taking hold, this time in the form of the 2015 Land Rover Discovery Sport.
Are you a member of the Porsche Club of America? Do you have $137,000 burning a hole in your pocket? If so, lucky day, because Porsche has rolled out a special version of the 911 to commemorate the club's 60th anniversary, and it's only available to PCA members. The 911 GTS Club Coupe builds upon the standard ("standard") 430-horsepower 911 GTS with a unique shade of blue, black accents on all sides, and an absolutely gorgeous ducktail-style rear spoiler.
While car folks might disagree on whether or not they liked Jay Leno on The Tonight Show, there's no disagreement when it comes to discussing Leno's fervent love of cars. The man just oozes passion on his YouTube series, Jay Leno's Garage. And, being the lucky bastard he is, Leno finds himself driving all sorts of interesting cars that fall on the obscure side of the spectrum. Since we love odd cars, as well, we figured we'd bring five of them to light in a list.
The Tesla Model S is a pretty amazing car. It's a beautifully designed, all-electric, $100,000 piece of automotive history. It's known for its speed, its efficiency, and its style, not its ability to sleep two comfortably. One Arizona man is looking to change that, for some reason. He's offering to let people sleep in the back of his Model S for the low, low price of $85 a night.
Every week we take a look back at how our favorite cars, trucks, and SUVs have evolved over the years - the "embarrassing childhood photos". Welcome to Throwback Thursday! This week we're looking at Mitsubishi's Lancer EVO. The EVO has always played second fiddle to Subaru's WRX. But there's no reason it can't headline its own shows.
Last year, we were hit with an unprecedented level of vehicle recalls, spurred by GM's ignition-switch debacle. These recalls affected, and continue to effect, nearly every automaker selling cars in the United States, and as the number of recalls continues to rise, the chance that you might have a recalled car in your garage will continue to increase. That's why we collect all the recall notices from the past week and put them right here, in an easily digestible roundup.
Honda is bringing its redesigned Pilot SUV to the 2015 Chicago Auto Show on February 12. The newest incarnation of the Honda Pilot is poised for a serious redesign retaining eight-passenger seating, and supposedly introducing a wealth of technology and safety features.
A car is an expensive thing to own. And the costs of ownership don't stop once you've settled on financing; between insurance, gas, and maintenance, you might end up spending several thousand dollars per year above and beyond the checks you send to the bank. In order to give you an idea of what these costs might be, we've compiled a list of additional expenses that owners are likely to encounter during their first year of vehicle ownership.

Drones are no longer some nebulous term for unmanned military craft. Now, they pervade many different parts of our culture - Amazon wants to deliver packages with them, amateur photographers want a whole new angle on their subjects, and some hobbyists just like flyin' 'em around. This year, at the 2015 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit, automakers jumped on the drone bandwagon, too - and it's a trend we see growing in the coming years.

Look at the linked map showing today's high temperatures as recorded at each county's OK Mesonet stations. These are stunningly high temps for western OK in particular.
What in the heck do western Oklahomans grow that will tolerate those kinds of highs?????? Looking at the high temps in western OK compared to mine in southcentral OK may be feel a lot better....almost like I am in one of the cooler parts of the state. Dawn |

Follow-Up Postings:
It's an unfortunate feedback of the extreme drought. Evaporation of liquid water takes heat out of the air and has a cooling effect. We know this because of how misters work and how we sweat to stay cool. It's the same idea for soil moisture and transpiration from plants. When the soil is as dry as it is out west, the heat radiated from dry ground and dormant vegetation makes the air temperature even warmer instead of cooling it. It doesn't seem fair that those who need rain the most also bake the worst, but that's how it works. :( I think the people on the eastern side of the exceptional drought area have it the worst, because they also have just relative humidity to have a heat index on top of the insane temperatures. |
It's showing buffalo at 110 for a high, but every Gage I looked at around 4pm said 113. I've been watering lawn and garden throughout the day. Ive heard it's best not too during the heat, is that because of the evaporation? |
Yeah, it's mainly because of how much water you'd lose to evaporation, especially if it's windy or if you use a sprinkler. I try to water with my hose on a low pressure setting in the evening (generally morning is better but I'm not enough of a morning person to get it done before I go to work) to let it soak in as much as possible. Soaker hoses are good, too. |
Ouch. You guys are the same temperature as we are! I lost a baby chick today before it occurred to me to take a fan out and spray them with water! |

Halle Berry's Mother Says She Hopes 'Things Calm Down' After Violent Fight Between Gabriel Aubry and Olivier Martinez (EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW & VIDEO)
Halle Berry's mom has broken her silence about the contentious custody battle and brutal fight between her daughter's ex Gabriel Aubry and current fiancee Olivier Martinez.
"This cannot go on things have got to calm down," Judith Hawkins told Celebuzz, in an exclusive interview.
The Oscar winner's mother spoke out following the violent Thanksgiving day fight between French actor Martinez, 46, and Aubry, 36, that landed both men in the hospital.
The incident occurred after the Canadian model handed over his four-year-old daughter with Berry, Nahla, at the star's West Hollywood, Calif. home.
"As far as I know Halle and Nahla are fine though," the actress' mother said, when asked how both were holding up amid the controversy.
But Hawkins, who raised her famous daughter in Ohio, said that it is time common sense prevailed in the bitter feud that has been dragging through the Los Angeles court system for months.
"I hope that things get better, I really hope that they do; they have got to get better," Hawkins, a former psychiatric nurse, said.
Both Aubry and Martinez were treated for injuries following the fight, with Aubry coming off much worse. He was photographed sporting a bruised face and horrific black eye, while Martinez walked away with a badly swollen hand.After the bust-up, the Calvin Klein model was booked on a misdemeanor battery charge and later released on $20,000 bail. He obtained a civil restraining order against Martinez at L.A. County Superior Court on Monday afternoon, claiming the actor threatened to "kill" him.
In a court declaration obtained by TMZ, Aubry claimed Martinez told him he had better move to Paris so his little girl could be with Berry, adding that, "We called the cops … you're going to tell them that you're the one who attacked me, or I'm going to kill you."
He also alleges that Martinez took his head in his hand and slammed it on the concrete driveway.Aubry is expected back in court Dec. 13.
Berry was also granted an emergency protection order against Aubry banning him from coming within 100 yards of herself, Martinez and Nahla, and she has also hired armed bodyguards to protect her 24/7.
However, a judge ruled Tuesday that Aubry will be allowed to resume visitation with Nahla, with unspecified precautions in place to protect her safety.

Tons of CVS brands lotions are on clearance In the most recent RIB coupon booklet, there is $3 off any one cvs hydrating product shown. I search CVS site but can't tell or find the one pictured in the store. Is it a Cerave equivalant? I can barely read what it says in the tiny picture Help. im wondering if i can use these on any "hydrating" cvs product... |
What I've always wondered is just how cheap these retailers will wholesale their unsaleable/discontinued/etc inventory out for. This guy buys it by the pallet so it's always mixed with some junk as well as some good stuff. I just can't see it being any cheaper than the 75% off that it sometimes gets marked down to, which is why it might be easier for them just to box it up and send it off rather than dealing with it themselves. |
I almost always see Target holiday clearance items at my local Goodwill maybe a month after they're salvaged. I'm guessing they must get some kind of tax credit? The pallet/truckload sales, I'm guessing, must be saving them money in the long run in staffing hours. It takes time to ticket, enter in the system, and make space for the endcap clearance.
IVDSO: Formula checks, MCR codes and receipts with P&G.
PM me for trade! |
they have a for profit relationship w/ goodwill so they sell it to goodwill and don't get any tax credit. the pallet/truckload sales clears sales floor space to put full-priced items which gives them a chance for higher profit margin than clearance that for whatever reason hasn't sold within a certain period of time. you may have noticed that target brings new products in constantly and some new products to the market are clearanced out even before the tv ad hits the waves. midnight skin is back.
they removed this stuff will at least i know that the Tide Boost was at cvs one of them had it last month or in October i dont remember how long ago ... i asked the manager and was told they sent it all back i wish i could get the stuff at 90% at the cvs in my city its been over 1 year since the last 90% off clearance! btw i just had to make another trip as i needed raincheck for Lumene since the cvs store near my place never has any of the $3.99 or $6.99 or $6.49 stuff and also Wipes they were out of the diapers so i had to get that my coupons are going to expire and the new P&G didn't have wipes coupons so upsetting! Last edited by HouseMom; 11-29-2012 at 11:14 PM.. |
Here's some of the 75% off stuff I saw today...
Several Skin Effects Products CVS Skin Care (Neutrogena generics) Shampoos/Hair Care Purpose Cream Burts Bees SmartLean Weight Loss Supplement A few others as well, but the vast majority of the overall clearance tickets were at 75% off which is a pretty rare find. |
If you happen to possess those Physician's Formula coupons(EXP.12/31/12) found at Walmart a while ago, not only do they make the clearanced eye/face creams($4.xx-$5.xx) free, the overage goes to cover anything in the same transaction and even tax if you don't scan your card first. |

This vintage ring box is made of bakelite which has been painted gold. The domed lid has a heavily embossed design down the center with a more delicate, etched detail on either side. The base has an embossed, sculpted scroll design and under the front edge of the lid is another embossed design resembling flowers. Inside is a plush, turquoise colored fabric pillow with a slot in which to display an antique ring. The slot is wide enough to perhaps hold a wedding set. The advertising fabric insert in the hinged lid reads; Kaufman Jewelers Boise, Idaho. The bottom of the box is marked; Made in U.S.A.. This does appear to be original, gold colored paint and not an after market craft project.
It measures about 3 1/8" wide by 2 1/16" deep and 1 ½" high when closed and is in very good condition with minimal wear on the paint. The hinge works well. One side of the fabric slot appears to have been used more than the other side.

Chiefs place tag on Dwayne Bowe
KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- The Chiefs designated Dwayne Bowe as their franchise player Monday, keeping the impact wide receiver off the free-agent market this offseason.
The move, which came less than an hour before the afternoon deadline, guarantees Bowe a salary of about $9.5 million next season. He could still field offers from other teams, but the Chiefs would have the right to match them.
If they refused, they would receive two first-round draft picks as compensation.
"Today was the league's deadline to designate a franchise player and we felt it was in the best interest of the Kansas City Chiefs to place the tag on Dwayne," Chiefs general manager Scott Pioli said in a three-paragraph statement released by the team.
Bowe had a breakout season two years ago, catching 72 passes for 1,162 yards and 15 scores en route to his first Pro Bowl. He followed that with 81 catches for 1,159 yards and five TDs last season, despite playing without injured quarterback Matt Cassel the final seven games.
Pioli has indicated he would like to sign Bowe to a long-term deal, and the Chiefs have often used the franchise tag as a bridge toward making that happen.
Linebacker Tamba Hali was given the tag last season. Contract negotiations were put on hold because of the lockout, but the two sides eventually agreed to a $60 million, five-year deal early in training camp. The deal made Hali one of the league's highest-paid pass rushers.
Tight end Tony Gonzalez was franchised by the Chiefs in 2002 and signed a seven-year deal by September. Offensive lineman Will Shields was tagged in 2000, played the entire season under the franchise deal, and agreed to a lucrative six-year contract the following March.
Bowe tweeted that he had "good news comin very soon" about an hour before the Chiefs used the franchise tag on him. He later tweeted: "Another year with the Chiefs."
The decision to use the franchise tag on Bowe had been expected ever since the Chiefs agreed to terms with cornerback Stanford Routt on a $19.6 million, three-year deal last month.
That deal was tantamount to announcing cornerback Brandon Carr would be allowed to reach free agency. The Chiefs already have $52.5 million wrapped up in cornerback Brandon Flowers, so using the franchise tag on a third cornerback would have been impractical.

Asian carp are voracious eaters that can wipe out native fish, and experts say if the carp make their way into Lake Erie it would wreak havoc on the ecosystem and economy. For years, conservationists and national leaders have examined ways to stop the spread of the invasive species, which has established itself in the Mississippi River. A study released this week from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers outlines eight possible approaches, including a physical barrier.
A 28kW solar array installed this summer at V.E. Petersen Co., Inc., 28101 E. Broadway, works weekends as well as during the week for the company, which normally only keeps weekday hours. The company estimates the array, which went into operation in September and cost about $100,000, will produce about 30 percent of the power V.E. Petersen consumes, says Jeff Lincoln, vice president of operations. "The summer months are when we'll save the most because of the sunlight. We can monitor it on the Internet and see when a cloud, for example, is blocking the light. The meters come down and go right back up when it passes. It's 108 panels on the roof. It's a very well done system, You don't even know it's up there when you're looking from the street," Lincoln said. "The panels lay flat on the roof."
The newest Lake Township trustee is proposing the formation of a citizen's advisory board to offer recommendations on policies covering the township cemetery and says the township trustees should consider raising cemetery fees on non-residents to cover increasing costs. Jeff Pettit, who was elected in November, said Tuesday other area cemeteries have higher fees for non-residents for opening burial plots, setting foundations and other services and Lake Township hasn't increased its fees for several years. He said an advisory board should draw its members from the unincorporated area of the township and the villages of Millbury and Walbridge to ensure it reflects the entire township.
Oak Harbor Village Council on Wednesday reaffirmed its decision to hire Jones & Henry Engineers in hopes of finding some quick relief for massive sewer system overflows plaguing village residents. "You just have to ask yourself if you want to solve this problem," councilman Jon Fickert said prior to the unanimous vote at a special meeting where a heated discussion broke out about high contract costs. "I believe the citizens deserve the best shot at success. And I believe that is Jones & Henry."
Unused funds raised by the Walbridge Centennial Committee are being donated back to village organizations. Darlene Limmer, president of the committee, told village council Wednesday that donations of $1,000 each will be made to the bicycle unit of the village's auxiliary police force and to the Walbridge Fest Committee, which provided funding to the centennial committee to pay for start-up expenses. |

Today I bought the Canon PIXMA MP560 wireless printer which I want to connect to my tower with a USB cable, because I cannot use wireless, and I wanted this printer because of the 3 in 1 and the great reviews.
I bought a USB cable that the salesperson said would work, but it doesn't. One end is an A and the other is a B, but the printer has an A connection and that is what I have on my tower. They do not have any cables with As on each end. Is there a USB cable that has an A on each end that I could use? I found one doing a search, but they call it a connecting cable and gave an example of connecting your keyboard to your computer if the cable furnished with the keyboard is not long enough. Thank you. Jane |
Follow-Up Postings:
Never mind. The usb cable I have fits. There was a piece of tape over the hole that the B end of the cable fits in and I just now found it. Thank you if anyone was trying to find an answer for me. I did a search at Canon and asked them to show me where the USB B type end on the cable was to be attached. They did. The plug is at the lower back left corner with the back of the printer facing you. Jane |

Blended TPW Products AlgorithmThere are two different blending algorithms used for TPW over-ocean and over-land. This page contains simple descriptions of the blending algorithms used for the blended TPW products. More details please refer to Kidder and Jones. 1. Over Ocean Algorithm1.1 Histogram Correction
The first step in the ocean blending algorithm is the construction of histograms of TPW values for a five-day period.
A histogram is constructed for each satellite instrument at each scan position. The assumption is that in a five-day period,
each scan position of each instrument will sample the global distribution of TPW. The second step in the process is constructing a reference PDF. While the "true" TPW distribution is not known, one set of observations can be chosen to be the reference and an adjustment can be calculated. When the adjustment is applied to other observations it makes the distribution approximate the reference distribution. Currently the average TPW PDF (scan positions 6–25 only) of the AMSU instrument is used as the reference PDF. Figure1 shows an example of the reference for the five day period as the red line. Figure 1. Illustration of the blending algorithm. [From K&J Fig. 1.]
The third step in the process is the construction of an adjustment for each scan position of each instrument.
The blue line in Fig. 1 shows the cumulative PDF for scan position 32 on the DMSP F14 SSM/I for the time period above.
The TPW histograms are tabulated with 1-mm-width bins centered at 0.5 mm, 1.5 mm, etc.
For each bin from 5.5 mm to 68.5 mm (the 64 xi values) a yi is interpolated such that the observed cumulative PDF has
the same value as the cumulative reference PDF. This step is illustrated in Fig. 1 for a subset of the xi and yi values.
Then, applying the adjustment is just a simple process of selecting the coefficients (as a function of satellite and scan position),
using the observed TPW as x, and calculating y: adjusted TPW = a0 + a1TPW + a2TPW2 + a3TPW3 (2)Figure 2 shows the adjusted cumulative PDF (dashed line) for the data shown in Fig. 1. Figure 2. The dashed line shows the results of adjusting the observed TPW data with the blending algorithm. [From K&J Fig. 2.]1.2 RemappingEach orbit of satellites is corrected with the histogram matching method and then mapped with a chosen map projection. The base map was chosen to be compatible with a map used at NESDIS/SAB. It is a Mercator projection with 16 km resolution at the equator. The map is centered at the equator and 160° west. It has 1437 rows and 2500 columns. The upper left pixel is at 71°14'52" North, 20°20'38" East, and the lower right pixel is at 71°14'52" South, 19°35'3" East. The cut line is at 20° East, which was chosen to emphasize ocean areas. Each orbit of each satellite is corrected with the histogram matching method and mapped onto the output map. 1.3 CompositingSatellite data may be composited or blended in a variety of ways depending on the intended use of the blended product. The most common way to blend data is to average them over a specified time period, and another way is to overlay newer data on top of older data, such that only the newest data are displayed. The overlay method of compositing is favored by forecasters because it is the most up-to-date image possible, and is used for the current operational TPW products. The orbits for the 12-hour period prior to runtime are composited by o verlaying newer pixels on top of older pixels. 2. Over Land AlgorithmThe blending process over land is different than over ocean because it relies on different data. The microwave data sources that are currently used over water do not have retrievals over land. Two sources of data are currently used over land include: (1) PW (layered and total) retrievals from the GOES Sounders on GOES-West and GOES-East; (2) ground-based GPS TPW retrievals. These data sets are available only over the CONUS, with a few stations in Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Mexico and Canada. The starting point for the over-land TPW is the blended TPW analysis over ocean. The basic plan for the Over-Land algorithm is to "fill the holes" using GPS data (first choice) or GOES PW data (second choice). GPS data are used in preference to the GOES PW data because GPS TPW values are unaffected by clouds, whereas GOES PW values can be retrieved only in cloud-free conditions. The GOES PW data provide a valuable backup in case the GPS data are not available.A Barnes analysis (Barnes 1964, Koch et al. 1983) of the GPS data is performed. The Barnes analysis approach has several parameters which must be specified, relating to the spatial influence of the data. Table 1 lists the values used in the Barnes analysis of the GPS TPW data. The values chosen are rather liberal (e.g. allowing an analysis up to 300 km from the nearest station) and geared towards a smooth field and high spatial coverage over CONUS. These values could be modified in the future to emphasize for instance increased spatial structure at the expense of high coverage. In regions with only a few stations in the Barnes analysis (e.g. Mexico, southern Canada), a circular feature can be produced in the analysis as only a few stations are available for interpolation and data points exceed the distance criteria in Table 1.
The GOES Sounder data are mapped directly into the Mercator projection, and then a 3 x 3 grid box expansion is performed, or up to roughly a 48 km2 areal coverage. This is strictly to eliminate holes in the analysis from insufficient coverage of the gridded data. In the future, the GOES Sounder results could be remapped or averaged together to eliminate missing values. In order to augment the ocean-only TPW product, each point in the starting map, which contains missing data after the addition of the microwave-derived TPW is examined. At each point, the TPW value is selected in the following order:
The search for a TPW value ends as soon as one is found, so that the blended TPW values over ocean remind unchanged, and GPS data are selected preferentially over GOES PW values. No averaging or error-weighting of the data is currently performed, although such approaches are worthy of further study. 3. TPW Anomaly (Percentage of Normal)To give forecasters an idea about how abnormally moist or dry the Blended TPW Product is, the TPW values from the blended product are divided by the weekly mean TPW values from the NVAP Dataset for 1988-1999 (Randel et al. 1996). NVAP is a daily, 1-degree resolution analysis which was created with TPW derived from SSM/I (ocean), NOAA TOVS (ocean and land), and radiosonde (land). This gives "percent of normal." There are 52 weekly mean fields used as normal from NVAP. No moving mean or 3-1-3 (three days before, the current day, and the next three days) calculation of the weekly mean is currently performed. The percent of normal product was developed at CIRA for research purposes but has proven useful for tracking atmospheric rivers, return flow of moisture from the Gulf of Mexico, and abnormally dry conditions associated with fire danger.

Enrolment drive to begin this weekend
Following reports that the YSR Congress is likely to sweep the by-elections held on Tuesday in the State, the city unit of the party is expecting large-scale enrolment of new members in the coming days.
"However, we will not admit any 'big' leaders from other parties. Only ward-level leaders and political activists will be preferred," YSRCP city convenor Vamsikrishna Srinivas told The Hindu on Wednesday. He claimed that there had been several requests for enrolment in the recent times but they could not be obliged immediately as the party leaders were busy during the last couple of months -- first with the by-election in Kovvur of Nellore district and later the bypolls to 18 Assembly and one Lok Sabha seats held on Tuesday. The enrolment would begin from this weekend, he said.
Replying to questions, he said that people in the State were keen on seeing YSRCP president Y.S. Jaganmohan Reddy as Chief Minister at least for once. On the numerous cases filed against him, he said they were all 'foisted'.
The party cadres' mood was upbeat as there were indications of a clean sweep in the bypolls. "We will win all the 18 Assembly and the Lok Sabha seat. It may be slightly tough in Parakal and Tirupati but nevertheless they will win. We will bag the Payakaraopeta (SC) seat with a majority of 10,000 to 15,000 votes," he stated.
He also denied the claims that the YSRCP was strong only in the rural areas but weak in urban pockets and said the sentiment was the constant factor all over the State.
Keywords: YSR Congress, by-elections, party enrolment, Y.S. Jaganmohan Reddy, Payakaraopeta Assembly

The Community Research Ethics Office (CREO) aims to strengthen and support community research by responding to the needs of community researchers to easily access an ethical support and review process.
Our purpose is to offer a supportive environment that encourages community researchers to participate and collaborate in a process of reflection that promotes awareness of ethical issues and maximizes ethical conduct of research.
CREO's work aligns with the three core principles in the Tri-Council Policy Statement: Ethical Conduct for Research Involving Humans (TCPS 2). CREO includes a fourth principle reflecting the impact research has on communities as well as individuals. Our four core principles are:
Respect for Persons
Concern for Welfare
Concern for Justice
Respect for Community
Click the link below to see a chart that illustrates how these four principles are aligned with community research ethics: CREO's principles chart
CREO is pleased to welcome FOUR new Board members to our team!! The new members bring a breadth of knowledge and a passion for ethics! Please welcome: Ryan Huckle, Eva Dabrowska, Elizabeth Vainionpaa and Gillian Alton to the Community Research Ethics Office!

Mr. Blum is the editor of Amazon Kindle Singles, a Web service that is helping to promote a renaissance of novella-length journalism and fiction, known as e-shorts.
Amazon Kindle Singles is a hybrid. First, it is a store within the megastore of Amazon.com, offering a showcase of carefully selected original works of 5,000 to 30,000 words that come from an array of outside publishers as well as from in-house. Most sell for less than $2, and Mr. Blum is the final arbiter of what goes up for sale.
Story at Salon.com
The Boston bombing suspect wanted a Chechynan dictionary, "Snatch" and books on how to make fake IDs
First it was Goodreads....then...
(be sure to watch the video's gruesome climax!)
For the last few years, Bookish.com — the joint venture between S&S, Hachette, and Penguin — has seen a number of iterations and had its share of setbacks. Most articles — including this one — tend to lead with a description of all the difficulties Bookish has had, from CEO change-overs to more than a year in delays. Even fresh off its launch several weeks ago there's a lot of discussion about what role Bookish.com fills in the ecosystem and whether or not it's addressing a consumer need. When it was announced yesterday that Goodreads.com was being acquired by Amazon, one of Forbes' headlines covering the announcement was Amazon Buys Goodreads. Take That, Bookish! As if it's another string of bad luck in the Bookish saga.
In an interview Thursday, Goodreads CEO Otis Chandler and Amazon's VP of Kindle content Russ Grandinetti stressed that Goodreads will not change for the worse following its acquisition by Amazon.
Full interview here.
In reaction to the recent purchase of Goodreads by Amazon.com, LibraryThing announced the following:
In the wake of Amazon's acquisition of Goodreads, we've had some blow-back on the fact that LibraryThing charges for a membership to add more than 200 books. In fact, when you go to pay, it's pay-what-you-want. The money helps pay for the site, and keeps us advertisement-free for members. Also, we believe customers should be customers, with the loyalty and rights of customers, not the thing we sell to our real customers.
However, some people don't like it. And we want everyone. So, as a test and a welcome, we're giving out free year's accounts to everyone who signs up through the end of Sunday. We've also upgraded everyone who signed up since 4pm yesterday.
More on their site.
They neglected to mention however that they too are part-owned by Amazon.com (40% due to previous small business purchases by Amazon). This was referenced in the NYTimes article about Amazon's purchase of Goodreads.
"The deal is made more significant because Amazon already owned part or all of Goodreads' competitors, Shelfari and LibraryThing. It bought Shelfari in 2008. It also owns a portion of LibraryThing as a result of buying companies that already owned a stake in the site. Both are much smaller and have grown much more slowly than Goodreads."
SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mar. 28, 2013-- Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) today announced that it has reached an agreement to acquire Goodreads, a leading site for readers and book recommendations that helps people find and share books they love.
"Amazon and Goodreads share a passion for reinventing reading," said Russ Grandinetti, Amazon Vice President, Kindle Content. "Goodreads has helped change how we discover and discuss books and, with Kindle, Amazon has helped expand reading around the world. In addition, both Amazon and Goodreads have helped thousands of authors reach a wider audience and make a better living at their craft. Together we intend to build many new ways to delight readers and authors alike."
"Books – and the stories and ideas captured inside them – are part of our social fabric," said Otis Chandler, Goodreads CEO and co-founder. "People love to talk about ideas and share their passion for the stories they read. I'm incredibly excited about the opportunity to partner with Amazon and Kindle. We're now going to be able to move faster in bringing the Goodreads experience to millions of readers around the world. We're looking forward to inspiring greater literary discussion and helping more readers find great books, whether they read in print or digitally."
"I just found out my two favorite people are getting married," said Hugh Howey, best-selling author of WOOL. "The best place to discuss books is joining up with the best place to buy books – To Be Read piles everywhere must be groaning in anticipation."
Following the acquisition, Goodreads's headquarters will remain in San Francisco, CA. Founded in 2007, Goodreads now has more than 16 million members and there are more than 30,000 books clubs on the Goodreads site. Over just the past 90 days, Goodreads members have added more than four books per second to the "want to read" shelves on Goodreads. -- Read More
Two industry groups argue that the retailer's plan to control several generic top-level domains, including .book, .author, and .read, would be anti-competitive.
Fans bombarded Amazon with dozens of negative reviews of a new biography, got several favorable notices erased and even took credit for Amazon's briefly removing the book from sale.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

President Looks Forward To Progress In El Salvador Ties
By Lee Shu-hua and Jeffrey Wu - Central News Agency
Thursday August 5, 2010 10:03:36 GMT
Taipei, Aug. 5 (CNA) -- President Ma Ying-jeou said Thursday relations
between Taiwan and El Salvador have entered a new stage since a bilateral
free trade agreement took effect in March 2008.
"And I hope the Taiwan-Salvadoran relationship will move even closer in
the years ahead, " Ma said while meeting the new Salvadoran ambassador to
Taiwan, Marta Chang de Tsien, and her husband.Since the two countries
forged diplomatic ties deca des ago, Ma said they have carried out
cooperative programs in nearly every aspect, ranging from education and
cultural affairs to technological, agricultural, medical and economic
fields.Ma said he hopes bilateral ties will grow even stronger in the
future, adding the Salvadoran president is welcome to visit Taiwan.Ma also
said Chang is very suitable to serve as Salvadoran ambassador to Taiwan
because she is a second-generation Chinese immigrant to El Salvador and
has received university education in the United States.Blessed with
knowledge of Salvadoran, Chinese and U.S. cultures, Chang will be able to
smoothly fulfill her mission and maintain a healthy interaction with
Taiwan's government and people, Ma said.(Description of Source: Taipei
