In addition to emergency services, McKim noted Clean Harbors often partners with companies and has employees on site to help maintain, clean and dispose of hazardous waste that is generated through normal operations.
One huge area of opportunity for the company has been the oil and natural gas business, said McKim, with Clean Harbors providing services to help drillers recycle their fracking water as well as other hazardous waste. McKim also talked about his company's recent acquisition of Safety Kleen, which offers services to smaller companies that also see the need to do the right thing with their waste products.
Cramer said he continues to believe in the Clean Harbors story.
Executive Decision: Jim Reid-Anderson
In his second "Executive Decision" segment, Cramer sat down with Jim Reid-Anderson, chairman, president and CEO of Six Flags (SIX - Get Report), the amusement park operator that's delivered a 38% return since Cramer last spoke with Reid-Anderson in July 2012. Shares of Six Flags also currently yield 4.6%.
Reid-Anderson said that for as much success Six Flags has enjoyed over the past few years there's still a lot more to come and plenty of growth still ahead. He said it would cost a new competitor $300 million to $500 million per park to replicate what Six Flags already has; given the regulations involved, increased competition isn't likely. Some of Six Flags keys to growth have been making sure there's something new at every park, every year, said Reid-Anderson. Whether that's new rides, new shows or new attractions, there are always reasons for customers to keep coming back. Six Flags has also cut labor costs and improved efficiencies by communicating directly with customers, giving it some of the highest operating margins in the industry. Six Flags also enjoys economies of scale, said Reid-Anderson, as the company is now a national brand made up of regional parks. That means the company can promote itself both nationally and on the local level, appealing to many audiences. Another plus for the company: its extra 1,000 acres of land surrounding its parks. Reid-Anderson said Six Flags doesn't need more space, so as the market improves it will be selling that extra land for a terrific return. Cramer said that Six Flags remains a winner with a high dividend investors would be remiss to pass up.Lightning Round
In the Lightning Round, Cramer was bullish on AT&T (T) and CVS Caremark (CVS). Cramer was bearish on Corning (GLW), Oracle (ORCL) and Rite Aid (RAD).Am I Diversified?
In the "Am I Diversified?>" segment, Cramer spoke with callers and responded to tweets sent via Twitter to @JimCramer to see if investors' portfolios have what it takes for today's markets. The first portfolio included: Boeing (BA), Chevron (CVX), Coca-Cola (KO), Walt Disney (DIS) and Apple (AAPL). Cramer said "Bingo!" as this portfolio was properly diversified. The second portfolio's top holdings included: GlaxoSmithKline (GSK), ConEd, Verizon (VZ), New York Community Bank (NYCB) and Cedar Fair (FUN). Cramer said he also liked this portfolio's perfect diversification. The third portfolio had: Google (GOOG), Facebook (FB), General Mills (GIS), Kinder Morgan Energy Partners (KMP) and GlaxoSmithKline as its top five stocks. Cramer said that either Google of Facebook needed to be sold in this portfolio and an industrial stock like General Electric (GE) needed to be added in its place.No Huddle Offense
In his "No Huddle Offense" segment, Cramer followed up on his interview last night with Walter Robb, the co-CEO of Whole Foods Markets (WFM - Get Report). He said the company is setting itself up for a multi-year expansion as the younger demographic just can't get enough of the company's healthy products. Cramer said younger people want to know where their food comes from, and Whole Foods simply doesn't sell products unless they meet the company's high standards. He said the company may have stumbled a quarter ago, but has since improved its supply chain and once again proven that it can deliver what its customers demand.

I have several derogs from Sallie Mae. Equifax is showing two (2) 90-day lates, one from 5 years ago, one from last year. TransUnion, is showing five (5) 90-day lates and two (2) 120-day lates. All but one of the 90-day lates is from 5-6 years ago.
When I pulled my TransUnion credit score through myFico, it was reported as a 662 (I have not been able to pull the Equifax yet, I think because I had pulled the report before visiting here).
A few questions:
1. Does anyone have experience obtaining mortgages with similar derogs on their report? Are the 90-day lates something that would virtually guarantee mortgage rejection?
2. I've read that Sallie Mae occassionaly accepts GWs for 90-day lates. I'd like to get the one from last year removed as it occured during a medical emergency with family and was not related in any way to inability to pay. If I am able to have the year-old 90-day late removed would it likely improve my score and/or chances of obtaining a mortgage?
A mortgage might be possible given the score but the key derogative tradelines might skew things out of line. Actually, a lot depends on the lender. Some do not even look at negative TLs which are at least a couple of years old.
myFICO is the consumer division of FICO. Since its introduction 20 years ago, the FICO® Score has become a global standard for measuring credit risk in the banking, mortgage, credit card, auto and retail industries. 90 of the top 100 largest U.S. financial institutions use the FICO Score to make consumer credit decisions.

It's 2.5 inlet and 2.5 outlet. Fits on stock exhaust piping with no modifications. It sounds great!
Will sell for $25 + shipping costs. Will use USPS. Located in 714 area of Southern California, can meet up too!
I don't have any personal sound clips from my truck, but it sounds very very similar to this.

Is there something special about non-fully enclosed LED light fixtures that accept replaceable LED bulbs? What's the difference between a non-enclosed light fixture that's specified for use with an LED bulb & the same exact-looking fixture that's specified for use with an incandescent or fluorescent bulb as the light source? The LED light fixture is the more expensive model. I read that replaceable LED light bulbs can be used in existing light fixtures that can accept incandescent and fluorescent bulbs. However, if the LED bulb is used in a fully enclosed fixture, the life of the bulb may be reduced because of the trapped heat produced by the LED that is in the enclosed fixture. So if replaceable LED bulbs can be used without issues in non-enclosed light fixtures, then why are manufacturers producing non-enclosed light fixtures that look the same, but one fixture is marketed for LED bulbs and the other, same-looking fixture isn't marketed with for use with LED bulbs? I don't understand, unless it's a fully enclosed fixture that is made especially to combat the problem of the LED bulb producing heat. Thanks. I have no experience with LED lighting. |
Follow-Up Postings:
For recessed lighting, the LED module can be used in place of an incandescent bulb (e.g. - BR30) without issues. If the recessed fixture was CFL with a built-in ballast, replacing the can and bulb could sometimes be a more viable solution than replacing the connector and bypassing the ballast. The LED modules used in recessed lighting have been engineered for proper heat dissipation. For surface mount fixtures, assuming that the E26 socket is used, an A lamp style LED bulb can typically be used. For enclosed fixtures, the typical bulb used is an incandescent - std or halogen. A LED only fixture at this point in time is designed such that the lights are expected to last quite a while and then disposed off. |

"We are deeply honored that Dr. Inamori is able to join us for this occasion," said Charles M. Edmondson, president of Alfred University. "Dr. Inamori has been a valued friend to the university and in particular to our School of Engineering, so we are delighted he will be here as we dedicate this museum in his honor.
"The Inamori Kyocera Museum of Fine Ceramics will play an important role in educating young people about the vital role of ceramics in the future economy-in areas ranging from information technology to medical devices, diagnostic systems, industrial equipment, renewable energy and environmental preservation. Equally important, by documenting the work of Dr. Inamori and Kyocera Corp.'s leadership in the advancement of science and global well-being, it will provide an inspiring example of what can be accomplished by imagination, hard work, and ethical commitment."
Additional speakers at the event included Marina Pascucci, a 1977 alumna of the university who is currently president of CeraNova in Marlborough, Ma., and president of the American Ceramic Society; Terry Michalske, a 1975 alumnus who is now director of the Savannah River federal research laboratory; Gary Messing, a 1973 alumnus who is head of the materials science and engineering department at Pennsylvania State University; and Linda Jones, associate vice president and head of the New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University, who is a fellow of the ceramic society and a member of its board of directors.
Displays within the museum highlight the history of ceramic materials, which can be traced back to 24,000 BCE to today, where fine (also known as advanced or engineered) ceramics are an enabling technology in countless everyday items-from computers and cell phones to more specialized applications like fuel cells, solar panels and biomedical implants.
"The museum helps solidify Alfred's reputation as a center for ceramic research and education," said Doreen Edwards, dean of the Kazuo Inamori School of Engineering. She said she anticipates visitors will include specialists and scientists. "People who are involved in the manufacture of ceramics and related technologies will find this of interest," she said, but there is also plenty to draw the general public.
Adjacent to the museum will be the Discovery Lab, which will be the university's center for outreach activities involving students from kindergarten through 12th grade and their teachers. Working with Marlene Wightman, director of continuing education, and Steve Pilgrim, professor of materials science and engineering, faculty will develop programming such as demonstrations and hands-on activities that are appropriate to the grade level and interests of the students, Edwards explained.
One of the most intriguing aspects of the new museum is the opportunity to showcase both the artistic and technical sides of ceramic materials in one location, Jones said. The Schein-Joseph Museum of Ceramics, which has extensive collection of ceramic art, is located adjacent to the new museum in Binns-Merrill Hall.
"This is an absolute reflection of the College of Ceramics that joins both the School of Art & Design and the Inamori School of Engineering," said Jones. "From the inception of the college, it was recognized that creativity and technical understanding are essential to address the challenges of our time."

This wasn't for me at all, the subject matter is one that I normally try to avoid. I was three pages in before I spotted where this was going, and that was a shame because the story was paced very well.
The subject matter was horrific and evil of the worst kind, a brutal killer describing with almost lipsmacking relish his latest murder isn't for the fainthearted, and I wonder how commercial this could possibly be?
Technically this was well written with an attention to detail that was almost obsessional. And that was the real problem with this piece, it was almost basic reportage than good clear prose, there is real talent in your writing, your style is crisp and unsentimental which is almost impossible to do.
Great well told story. Terrible subject matter.

A review of Jack Basherby badgebarman on 01/22/2009I am a fan of any one who tries something different. However? This was a brave attempt to circumnavigate the normal rules of story telling, it was a shame that it wasn't a little sharper, because it had many good points to smile or groan over. I particulary enjoyed the flippant ironic tone of the story, but for this to really work you have to have a more coherent storyline,... read

(Updates with closing share price in last paragraph.)
Oct. 3 (Bloomberg) -- Lonmin Plc, the third-largest platinum producer, plans to sell a controlling stake in its Limpopo division to Shanduka Group Ltd. for 1.1 billion rand ($135 million) if a feasibility review is successful.
Shanduka, a black-investors holding company, will be entitled to subscribe for 50 percent plus one share in the issued capital of Messina Platinum Mines Ltd., which is wholly owned by a subsidiary of Lonmin's Western Platinum Ltd., the Johannesburg-based company said in a statement.
The deal will enable Lonmin to develop its Limpopo Baobab mine in South Africa, where operations were halted in 2009 after the global financial crisis sent platinum prices plummeting, and help meet the government's the black-shareholding target of 26 percent by 2014.
"The provision of capital by Shanduka will enable Lonmin to retain its balance sheet capacity and management focus on growth from its Marikana operations," Lonmin said.
The platinum miner will continue to hold an 82 percent interest in Western Platinum, which will have the option to fund any expansion if the Limpopo division boosts production to more than 250,000 ounces a year in exchange for shares in Messina Platinum Mines, according to the statement.
'Canny Deal'
It is "a small but canny deal by Lonmin, which extracts value from a small and non-core asset," Liberum Capital Ltd. said in a note. It would give Lonmin a cash injection "at an opportune time since at current PGM prices we believe its balance sheet out to 2015 is set to come under scrutiny," it added. PGMs are platinum group metals.
Shareholder approval may be required as Shanduka is a related party, Lonmin said. Shanduka controls Lonmin's empowerment partner Incwala Resources Ltd. and Cyril Ramaphosa, founder and chairman of Shanduka, is a director of Lonmin. The deal is expected to take 12 to 15 months to close, Lonmin said.
Lonmin fell 22 pence, or 2.1 percent, to 1,029 pence at the 4:30 p.m. close in London. The six-member FTSE/JSE Africa Platinum Mining Index gained 0.8 percent.

The Detail Porteur Bicycle was inspired by Alex Hatfield's excellent hand built porteur bicycle, and for good reason. It recently won best porteur at the Bespoke Bristol Handmade Bicycle Show this earlier this year. To mimic it, the Detail team took a vintage '70s Chrome Carlton and turned it into a stunning '50s-style porteur bike, with a contemporary twist. Beautifully minimalist, it features a sleek and shiny silver frame with sparse leather detailing.
Relying heavily on eBay, the Detail Porteur Bicycle is made up of premium auction items at a relatively affordable prices. These included copper riveted Brooks Swift seat and Kampool break pads. Granted, the team did splurge on the Velo Orange Porteur rack and Brooks saddle.

This is one book i will always keep no matter what. I have read the first 50 pages at least 6 times so far, and each time i read them i realise theres more to this life than we think. And that anythings possible for each individual. A fantastic book

I love Abraham and their teaching, if you want to understand and change your life for the better, you must read this and apply it.

THIS IS THE BOOK TO GET IF YOU'RE SERIOUS ABOUT LEARNING AND APPLYING THE LAW OF ATTRACTION! The book is thick but I read it in three days, that's how intriguing it was, I could not put it down! After a few chapters of thoroughly explaining the law of attraction and its many interesting components there are chapters of exercises that if performed will allow you to meet, get to know and understand as well as work with your Higher Self. Esther and Jerry Hicks are the real thing. And they don't leave you hanging, they also have a website and provide training. This is a book that you will refer to over and over again. It provides inspiration and insight. If you apply the exercises you will see a change in yourself and your life. I am seeing that happening to me right now and I haven't even REALLY applied any exercises. I am just inspired by reading the book. BUY IT, KEEP IT, USE IT! Don't lend it out, you may not get it back.

As Khodorkovsky was being lauded around the world for his business successes and philanthropic endeavours, he had also become a public irritant and powerful opponent of Kremlin policies. At the same time Yukos had become too attractive an asset for predators to resist expropriating.
Prior to his arrest, Khodorkovsky had become increasingly outspoken on the country's rampant corruption and on the need to create a more robust civil society. The final straw triggering the decision to arrest him is widely thought to have been during a televised meeting between President Putin and the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs, in which Khodorkovsky cited statistics on state graft in Russia and publicly challenged the President to address the problem. (Read more under Destruction of Yukos)
On July 2, 2003 Khodorkovsky's business associate Platon Lebedev was arrested straight from a Moscow hospital where he was receiving treatment. Many perceived this to be a major warning shot fired at Khodorkovsky to force him to flee the country. Khodorkovsky however refused to leave the country he loved.
On October 25, 2003, armed commandos stormed a jet on the tarmac of a Siberian airport and arrested Khodorkovsky at gunpoint. He was ostensibly being arrested to appear as a witness in an investigation underway in Moscow. However, within hours after being delivered to the authorities in Moscow who sought to question him, Khodorkovsky was charged with fraud and tax evasion and he has been in detention ever since.
Khodorkovsky's October 2003 arrest occurred just prior to Russia's December 2003 parliamentary election and March 2004 presidential election, eliminating him from active engagement in the political sphere.
First Trial
The first trial of Khodorkovsky and Lebedev began in June 2004 and concluded in May 2005. The defendants were subjected to grave injustices in the interpretation and application of Russian law, while the authorities concurrently pursued an attack on Yukos through the pretext of reassessments of the company's tax payments. The Meshchansky Court found both men guilty of almost every charge, sentencing them to nine years in prison, a sentence subsequently reduced by the Moscow City Court to eight years during an otherwise unsuccessful appeal process in September 2005.
After the trial, Khodorkovsky was sent to one of the most remote prison colonies in all of Russia, some 6,900 kilometres away from Moscow in the town of Krasnokamensk, close to Russia's borders with China and Mongolia. The prison is in close proximity to a uranium mine which has contaminated the area with unsafe levels of radioactivity. Lebedev, meanwhile, was sent to a remote prison colony in the town of Kharp, on the Yamalo-Nenets Peninsula, above the Arctic Circle. For both men, the remoteness of their prisons made it extremely difficult for their families and Moscow-based legal counsel to visit them.
Khodorkovsky had always eschewed the lavish lifestyle and extravagance of many of his wealthy peers. Despite this, the Kremlin and its allies began a concerted campaign to smear Khodorkovsky, using his wealth as a means to justify his arrest and to rally public opinion as part of a populist crusade to tame the so-called "oligarchs".
Second Trial
In 2007, after four years in detention, Khodorkovsky and Lebedev were to become eligible for release on parole under Russian law, having served half of their eight‐year sentences. By then, Yukos had been largely destroyed through bogus tax reassessments, forced bankruptcy proceedings and rigged auctions, with the majority of its assets won over by state-controlled Rosneft. However the Russian authorities still did not want to see Khodorkovsky and Lebedev released. Given their eligibility for parole in 2007, or at the latest upon completion of their eight-year sentences in 2011, new charges were sloppily manufactured and proceedings were instigated against Khodorkovsky and Lebedev to prevent their release.
As was the case for the previous elections, the timing of the new charges, announced in February 2007, ensured that Khodorkovsky was behind bars during the December 2007 parliamentary election and the March 2008 presidential election. In addition to keeping Khodorkovsky isolated from the Russian political sphere, the new charges were intended to stain even further his reputation and to whitewash and distract attention from corrupt and criminal actions committed by high-ranking Russian officials in the destruction of Yukos.
The second trial started in March 2009 at Moscow's Khamovnichesky Court. Khodorkovsky and Lebedev were found guilty in December 2010. Following a failed appeal in May 2011, their imprisonment was extended to 2016, which precluded their release in 2011 upon completion of their initial eight-year sentences. Khodorkovsky and Lebedev are now serving combined sentences totalling thirteen years, counted from 2003.
As their appeals in Russia have failed, both Khodorkovsky and Lebedev have submitted applications to the European Court of Human Rights highlighting violations committed by Russian authorities in the proceedings against them.
Since the end of the second trial, a relentlessly absurd saga of appeals has unfolded, with proceedings repeatedly unlawfully delayed, or stymied by groundless rulings. After two years of obstruction and delays, a supervisory appeal hearing finally took place at the Moscow City Court on December 20, 2012. Despite the enormous weight of legal and factual arguments undermining it, the appeal judges confirmed the December 2010 guilty verdict. Incredibly, the ruling lacked any thorough judicial analysis of the appellants' arguments. The hearing did, however, bring forward the scheduled release date of both Khodorkovsky and Lebedev by two years, as a result of 2011 changes to Russian sentencing guidelines.
The International Bar Association's Human Rights Institute had a full time observer at the second trial and concluded in their September 2011 trial observation report that the proceedings were not fair and were incapable of producing clear proof to sustain the verdict. Similarly, in December 2011 an official inquiry organised by then-President Dmitry Medvedev's own human rights council identified serious and widespread violations of the law in the second trial, leading the Council to call for an annulment of the verdict. Experts involved in the inquiry categorically rejected the court's findings of illegality in Yukos's operations and found no evidence proving allegations of embezzlement or money laundering.
Khodorkovsky's ongoing detention is widely seen to be representative of the parlous state of the rule of law in modern Russia, symptomatic of deep-rooted legal nihilism by which principles of justice are subverted to the political considerations of the ruling elite.
Prisoner of Conscience
Since Khodorkovsky and Lebedev were arrested in 2003, Amnesty International has continually expressed concern over their treatment in detention. In May 2011, Amnesty International designated them both to be prisoners of conscience, jailed for the non-violent expression of their political beliefs, and called for their release. The position of Amnesty International echoes that of other international NGOs, including Human Rights Watch and Freedom House, as well as world leaders across the globe, in recognising the political nature of the campaign of persecution waged against Khodorkovsky.
Even in detention and under the constant risk of reprisals from the prison authorities, Khodorkovsky has not been deterred from speaking out on the pressing need for change in Russia. From his prison cell he has become a renowned commentator on economic, political and social issues, penning numerous articles in leading national and international publications. He has engaged in written exchanges with famed writers such as Lyudmila Ulitskaya and Boris Akunin, some of which were subsequently published to critical acclaim. Khodorkovsky continues his public engagement to the extent that he can despite his incarceration and despite the risk that his continued presence in the political arena poses to his hopes for release.
For his acclaimed writings and brave commitment to a free and democratic Russia, Khodorkovsky has received or has been nominated for numerous prizes.
Sakharov Prize for Journalism as an Act of Conscience
In December 2011, Khodorkovsky was one of fourteen finalists nominated for the Sakharov Prize for Journalism as an Act of Conscience, for his articles published in Novaya Gazeta. Since 2001, the prize has been awarded to journalists who defend the values of the eminent Soviet nuclear physicist, dissident and human rights activist Andrei Sakharov. Khodorkovsky's mother, Marina, received an honorary certificate on her son's behalf.
Dr Rainer Hildebrandt Medal
In December 2010, Khodorkovsky was awarded the Dr Rainer Hildebrandt Medal, an international human rights award in recognition of extraordinary, non-violent commitment to human rights. Khodorkovsky won the award alongside his human rights lawyer, Yuri Schmidt, and Hungarian reformer Imre Pozsgay. The jury for the award includes, amongst others, Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Henry Kissinger, President of Germany Joachim Gauck and former German foreign minister Hans-Dietrich Genscher. In a laudatory speech, Markus Löning, the German government's human rights commissioner, expressed his respect for Khodorkovsky for standing for a free Russia where human rights have meaning. In a letter to Khodorkovsky, Nobel Literature Prize Laureate Herta Müller underlined that he is imprisoned because "he called for democracy in Russia" and compared his commitment to a peaceful transition with that of Chinese Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Liu Xiaobo.
Newsmaker of the Year
In October 2010, Ekho Mosvky Radio announced the creation of a Newsmaker of the Year Award, giving the title to a different individual for the past twenty years. For 2003, the year of his arrest, the award was attributed to Khodorkovsky. Other recipients included the murdered journalist Anna Politkovskaya for 2006 and Russia's market reform architect Yegor Gaidar for 1992.
European of the Week
In May 2010, Khodorkovsky was named "European of the week" by Radio France International for his ongoing capacity to force the Kremlin to react, despite his imprisonment since 2003. The award came after the success of a hunger strike by Khodorkovsky, which drew then-President Medvedev's attention to the disrespect of Russian officials and courts for recent legal reforms. RFI awarded Khodorkovsky this honour again in 2013, following his 50th birthday on June 26.
Znamya Literary Prize
In January 2010, Khodorkovsky received a literary prize for his correspondence with Russian Booker Prize recipient Lyudmila Ulitskaya. The annual prize, which has been awarded by Znamya magazine for more than 20 years, was received by Khodorkovsky's daughter Anastasia at a ceremony in Moscow. The prize funds were donated to the Podmoskovny Lyceum in Koralovo.

You link to a CSS file at http://www.mysite.co.uk/style.css but the list of links is there too.Helping the Browser Locate the favicon.ico file
If you have placed your favicon.ico file in a location other than the current web directory (relative to your web page) or the root directory, you have to help your visitors' browser locate the favicon file by specifying it with a tag like the following in the <head> section of your web page.
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />
You should replace "/favicon.ico" in the above example with the actual location of your favicon.ico file, for example, "/images/favicon.ico" if you have placed it in your "/images/" directory.
This step is optional if you have put your "favicon.ico" file in the standard locations, ie, in the same directory as the web page or in the root directory of your website. Otherwise you will need to modify all your existing web pages to take advantage of the "favicon.ico" facility
