Martha Jefferson has developed a scholarship/work program to help promote educational growth combined with the goal of retaining and attracting qualified healthcare workers to meet the ongoing needs. This program is designed to provide financial assistance in return for the student agreeing to work for the hospital after graduation. The Human Resource Department is authorized to offer a number of scholarships each year, which will vary based on the needs of the Hospital and the difficulty of maintaining and/or recruiting qualified individuals. The funding of this program is determined on an annual basis.

Just in time for Easter, Jeff Koons has shot a sweet photo series featuring bunnies, kittens and downy-headed chicks for this Sunday's New York Times Magazine. But like most of his work, the kitschy cute exterior covers a subversive side, as the images illustrate an article that raises the question: "Can Animals be Gay?" While the photo spread seems to be the extent of Koons' involvement in the article, which takes a more scientific approach to the evidence of homosexuality in animals, there is one line at the end that falls right in line with his sense of humour. Describing the hatching of a chick raised by a monogamous pair of female albatross, called Lola by the local tourist board, the article also report that the shortlist of names included Rainbow, Lady Gagabatross and Ellen.

Paying millions for overhyped art is so 2008. Following the trend of guerrilla-style art fairs that sell works at dollar-store prices, Tokyo is taking it one step further this weekend with the Art Fair Free where works of art cannot be bought with money. Interested collectors can contact artists by email and offer "something"—an action or object, anything that isn't cold, hard cash—in exchange for their work, and artists choose what they view as the best offer. But while the artists may have noble intentions, it seems the organisers have a more flexible idea of the word "free", as it turns out the fair isn't completely gratis and it costs ¥1000 ($10.75) to get in. Even the "free" party on 4 April, when the final sales will be announced, requires a ticket.
Who didn't want to be Ferris Bueller in the 80s? Fans have the opportunity to at least ride in style like the loveable prankster, with the replica Ferrari racecar built for the cult classic film going up for auction with Bonhams. Estimated at £30,000-40,000, the car is included in Bonhams' Motor Cars and Automobilia auction on 19 April at the RAF Museum, Hendon. Potential buyers might just want to make sure they don't have their own teenage troublemakers at home, of the following scene may become all too familiar: Cameron: The 1961 Ferrari 250GT California. Less than a hundred were made. My father spent three years restoring this car. It is his love, it is his passion. Ferris: It is his fault he didn't lock the garage.

It's sequins and high campery over at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London which is in discussions to acquire five costumes by the legendary late UK performer Danny La Rue, best known for his over-the-top pantomime dame roles. The glitzy garments include a costume designed by Tim Goodchild for the 1984 West End stage version of Hello Dolly, a Mae West ensemble and two of the pantomime outfits worn in the title role of Mother Goose at Theatre Royal Plymouth in 1983. The museum hopes to display the costumes in the future, confirmed a spokeswoman.

Will Wales ever embrace contemporary art? A Welsh town has rejected a planned major public work after 5,000 people signed a petition in protest, according to local press reports. The £400,000 Turbulence project by Mexican artist Rafael Lozano-Hemmer was set to fill the River Teifi in Cardigan with 127 buoys fitted with LED light sources. Microphones along the quayside would have recorded the voices of passers-by, setting off the lights. But local opposition has helped scupper the five-year venture which was initiated by Channel 4, Arts Council England and the Art Fund.

Moody crooner Morrissey is not one to hold back on his personal or political views, and he recently let his wry ire fly against art star Damien Hirst. In a Q+A with artist and fellow Mancunian Linder Sterling published in Interview magazine this month, the vegetarian singer asks: "I dislike the 'use' of animals in art, such as in the work of Damien Hirst…Do you agree that Hirst's head should be kept in a bag for the way he's utilized—and sold—dead animals?" To which Linder offers the penetrating reply: "How many halved calves suspended in formaldehyde does the world need? To my way of thinking, none."

One of the most erudite texts ever seen in an exhibition catalogue comes courtesy of South African artist Marlene Dumas who has published a letter to her dealer David Zwirner. The text, which marks a show of the artist's works at the eponymous New York gallery (until 24 April), provides an incisive insight into Dumas's philosophy with snippets such as: "Dear David, I've been trying to write to you about 'the why' of my paintings. Write it clearly so that it is not only my sentimental story, but something that is similar to a public statement, but the more I try, the more I get tangled up in places I don't want to go… I often open books, at random to see if there's a message for me. Still do. Now too... Never liked architecture. Never thought I would bother to ever paint concrete slabs! Never wanted or could draw mechanical straight lines."
Are Mario and Princess Peach the new symbols for selfless love and innocence? For Polish artist Kordian Lewandowski they just might be in his remix of Michelangelo's Pieta. Made not of marble but of polystyrene foam, Lewandowski has used the Nintendo characters to reinterpret the famous work for a contemporary audience, and it's nerd-approved. The piece, titled Game Over (guess Mario couldn't find a green mushroom in time), features two of the videogame's central characters in the same pose as Michelangelo's Mary holding the body of Jesus, and was made with the grace and delicacy of a chainsaw and later refined with smaller tools. While it may never be seriously compared with Michelangelo's masterpiece, it will certainly become part of the Gamer's Canon, and, being made of Styrofoam, may even last longer than the original.

Outlandish artist Sebastian Horsley, who underwent a crucifixion in the Philippines in 2000, is bringing his colourful life story to the stage. The "Dandy in the Underworld" stage extravaganza, written by Tim Fountain, begins at Soho Theatre, London, on 7 June. "And it will then transfer to Broadway. Ealing Broadway," quips Horsley. "God knows who will play me. They will try for Johnny Depp and end up with Bruce Forsyth no doubt." A concurrent exhibition is set to open in an as yet undecided venue.
A 66-year-old from Vicenza expressed surprise when he was seen on a security camera removing a work from Mike Kelley's light installation "Kandor's Full Set" at Francois Pinault's Venice gallery, Punta della Dogana.

US record producer Pharrell Williams is not just a hip hop supremo; the dapper rap star is fast becoming an art world fixture, co-producing a blingtastic oyster shell-like piece (The Simple Things) last year with Japanese superstar artist Takashi Murakami. Pharrell is also a dab hand at furniture design, launching a new chair at the Emmanuel Perrotin Gallery in Paris (by appointment from 30 March). This particular objet d'art, entitled The Tank, is based on the theme of war. Pharrell's accompanying poem, from which we feel duty bound to publish an excerpt: I'm standing in the mirror...Shadow boxing...Kicking ass....And I thought, how laughable the macho version of me...Ha...But could I be?..."Then what must it be like to be young and serve?"..."What if you couldn't pay your tuition?"... "What if it is simply family tradition?"..."What if you thought it was the right thing to do?"...If we would spend "love" and "time" like we do "money", we'd never go broke...But then again who am I trying to fool or what am I trying to fix? I'm just a guy in the mirror trying to imagine what it must feel like to be young....headed into war...I'm sorry, how rude of me...I've left you standing...I'm sorry, please do...Have a seat.—Pharrell Williams

A surprise bonus comes with the opening of Marina Abramovic's retrospective at MoMA yesterday. Despite early questions about the difficulty of streaming the performance online, the museum has set up a live-feed of the work, in which members of the public are invited to go head to head in an endurance test with the artist. On MoMA's blog, Associate Media Producer David Hart, reveals the hurdles that had to be overcome to even make the video possible, including his own reservations which led him to "whine and rant like a toddler". (We've been there too Dave.) In the end, he asks his online audience the same question many have asked about Abramovic's own work, about grueling performances and art in general: is it crazy or is it brave?

MoMA's PopRally events, a grab-bag series mixing comedy, music, film and art, are some of the most entertaining programmes organised by the august institution, and Sunday night's "Burtonalia" show was no exception. Inspired by the current exhibition of drawings, paintings and sculptures by the darkly comic filmmaker Tim Burton, the evening featured a spontaneous collection of performances, including comedians doing shtick based on the spooky director's oeuvre and a five-piece band improvising suitably cacophonic compositions to accompany a slideshow of his drawings. One of the highlights was seeing a pair of Super 8 films produced by and starring a teenaged Tim, which revealed the precocious talent of the Alice in Wonderland director before he had recourse to CGI. But the real show stopper was the always phenomenal beat-boxer and absurdist comedian Reggie Watts, who creates densely layered tracks live on stage using just a pocket-sized loop machine and exhorted MoMA to keep finding the budget for such events in the future.
The prize for most creative café offerings goes to SFMOMA, where visitors can stop off at its Rooftop Coffee Bar to sample some of its artist-themed pastries.

The illustrious Sir Norman Rosenthal, former exhibitions secretary at London's Royal Academy (RA), has revealed that his Spanish father-in-law mistook Marcus Harvey's infamous image of Moors Murderer Myra Hindley (a portrait created from the handprints of children, shown in the RA's "Sensation" exhibition of 1997) for the late Princess Diana. Sir Norman's intriguing aside over the controversial show—which inflamed ex-mayor Rudy Giuliani when it travelled to the Brooklyn Museum of Art in 1999—came during an entertaining "in conversation" last week at the Guggenheim in New York with the newly appointed director of LA MOCA, Jeffrey Deitch.

Have art historical references become the new brand-name-dropping? First rapper Jay-Z stuffed the video for his recent hit "On to the Next One" with art star shout-outs, including a black diamond encrusted skull suspiciously similar to Hirst's. Now, French-American hipster band Hold Your Horses send us on a musical art history tour with their new release "70 Million". While playing a catchy tune, the group recreates famous paintings from Leonardo's Last Supper to Van Gogh's Sunflowers, with stops in between to visit Salome and St John, Magritte and Mondrian. See how many arty allusions you can spot. Our favourite? Perhaps the Brady Bunch-esque screen of the entire band dolled up as Warhol's Marilyns.

Visitors to the Armory have been stopped in their tracks by a buff bronze Adonis chomping on a cigar on White Cube's stand (P94/901), with rippling biceps, tattoos galore—and prominent pudenda. The transgendered statue by Marc Quinn (Buck with Cigar, 2009) is modelled on none other than the porn performer and activist Buck Angel, born a woman in Los Angeles. The striking work (an edition of three), is already on hold and will be included in Quinn's upcoming show at the London gallery's Hoxton Square space in May, which will feature other surgically transformed figures. Alongside Buck will be Allanah, his male-to-female counterpart caught in flagrante, and a doubly buxom Pamela Anderson, cast as a Siamese twin attached to her own hip.

The audience of the inaugural Robert Rosenblum lecture at the Guggenheim on Wednesday enjoyed the sparkling repartee of Norman Rosenthal and Jeffrey Deitch as they reminisced about their friend, the late scholar-curator, who expanded the art history canon to include academic kitsch such as Jean-Léon Gérôme's painting of a pooch wearing a pinc-nez, Optician, 1902. At the end of the evening, questions were invited from the floor. Disregarding the debate about today's "recessional aesthetics" or art as an "inter-generational investment", the first questioner picked up the Gérôme reference and requested career advice for her artistic son who had just been diagnosed as colour blind. Rosenthal reassured the anxious art-mom that an ophthalmic challenge didn't hurt Monet's art—so the kid could go far. For more Armory week gossip, see our daily edition: www.theartnewspaper.com/fairs
It's a bird, it's a plane… no, it's Antony Gormley, times 31. New York's skyline is about to be invaded by the same lifesize bronze casts of the British artist that caused no little alarm when they were installed atop rooftops all around London's South Bank in 2007. Although "Event Horizon", the NYC Redux version, is not scheduled to go live until 26 March, a few of Gormley's sentinels will be installed early on 10 March around the Madison Square park area, with a view to eventually inhabiting vertiginous vantage points and eye-popping eyries high above street level, on the Flatiron and Empire State buildings among others. A similar dry-run in London precipitated numerous calls to the emergency services with panicked members of the public believing these men to be on the verge of jumping from their precipitous perches. Gormley wants these daredevils to live on the edge, saying that "My intention is to get the sculptures as close to the edge of the buildings as possible." Look up—just don't look down.

Legendary basketball star Shaquille O'Neal has scored a slam-dunk in the art world with his self-curated, self-referential exhibition "Size DOES Matter", now at the Flag Art Foundation on West 25th Street. The Cleveland Cavaliers giant loomed large at a special viewing on Tuesday night of his selection of (comparatively) vertically challenged works. At the smaller end of the scale was Willard Wigan's effigy of the big baller in the eye of a needle—viewable only under a microscope.

UK singer Elton John's plans for an in situ piece designed by Brit artist Gary Hume for a shower room at home did not, at first, proceed smoothly. The rock star commissioned the artist to design a work specially for his wet room, but Hume told UK newspaper The Independent: "I said to him, 'of course, what a nice idea,' but inside I was thinking: 'Are you f****** mad? Of course I don't want to make anything for your shower. How insulting!' After that, every time I saw him he would say, 'how's the shower piece going?' and I'd say, 'fine.' Then, after about two years, he said: 'Look, Gary, what's happening?' So I said that I didn't want to do it after all. So he said: 'Well, why don't you get a can of spray paint, write, 'Elton's a c***' in my shower, and I'll buy it.'" Hume made a William Blake-esque work for Elton in the end—but still wrote the aforementioned swear word on the back.

On this day in 1962, Jon Stewart, the host of Comedy Central's The Daily Show, a "fake news" program that satirizes politicians, celebrities and the media, among others, is born in New York City. Stewart's irreverent take on national and world events has been a huge hit with audiences and has even led some viewers to cite The Daily Show as their primary source of news.
Raised in Lawrenceville, New Jersey, Jonathan Stuart Leibowitz attended the College of William and Mary and after graduation began performing stand-up comedy at clubs in New York City. In 1991, he became host of Short Attention Span Theater on Comedy Central, which was followed in 1992 by You Wrote It, You Watch It on MTV. In 1993, he hosted a half-hour program, The Jon Stewart Show, also on MTV. A late-night, nationally syndicated version of the program launched the following year but was cancelled in 1995.
In January 1999, Stewart took over hosting duties of The Daily Show from Craig Kilborn, who had hosted the show since its 1996 debut on Comedy Central and left to replace Tom Snyder as host of The Late Late Show. With Stewart in the anchor seat, The Daily Show typically opens with a monologue about the day's news stories, followed by a satirical report from one of the program's "fake news" correspondents. (Previous correspondents have included Steve Carrell, who was a Daily Show regular from 1999 to 2004 and went on to star in such movies as The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Little Miss Sunshine and Get Smart and the NBC sitcom The Office. Another Daily Show correspondent, Stephen Colbert, left the program in 2005 to launch his own spin-off, The Colbert Report.) During the final segment of the half-hour Daily Show, Stewart conducts interviews with politicians, authors, Hollywood celebrities or other newsmakers. The Daily Show has won multiple Emmy Awards, and in 2004 Stewart and his writing staff released a best-selling mock-history textbook titled America (The Book): A Citizen's Guide to Democracy Inaction.
In addition to hosting The Daily Show, Stewart served as master of ceremonies for Hollywood's biggest annual event, the Academy Awards, in 2006 and 2008. His own movie career, which includes appearances in Playing by Heart (1998), The Faculty (1998) and Big Daddy (1999), has yet to win him any Oscars. On The Daily Show, Stewart has mocked his roles in such box-office bombs as 2001's Death to Smoochy.

mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1; mammalian target of rapamycin [mTOR] in complex with raptor) is a key regulator of protein synthesis and cell growth in response to nutrient amino acids. Here we report that inositol polyphosphate multikinase (IPMK), which possesses both inositol phosphate kinase and lipid kinase activities, regulates amino acid signaling to mTORC1. This regulation is independent of IPMK's catalytic function, instead reflecting its binding with mTOR and raptor, which maintains the mTOR-raptor association. Thus, IPMK appears to be a physiologic mTOR cofactor, serving as a determinant of mTORC1 stability and amino acid-induced mTOR signaling. Substances that block IPMK-mTORC1 binding may afford therapeutic benefit in nutrient amino acid-regulated conditions such as obesity and diabetes.

I had grown up a Presbyterian Christian who believed that as long as you were a Christian who believed in Jesus, you belonged to the 'church.' It didn't matter which church you belonged to or where you went to worship on Sundays, it just mattered if you believed in Jesus. If you believed in Jesus, you were doing just fine.

Teeth dental lamp or LED, Light Emitting Diode (LED) is a semi-conductor light sources affixed to the teeth (such as braces), so it can fire when the user smiles.
Quoted from page MailOnline dental light users can get a wireless handheld computer that is used to control lights, make a tooth change color, for example from green to red, or even make it blink.
This fashion accessory was created by two Japanese designers and is used in commercial advertising sales Laforet Harajuku clothes for winter. Motoi Ishibashi and Daito Mababe who created this technology to make video 'Party in Your Mouth' in which a group of school children show off their colored teeth.
The initial idea of the technology smile 'LED' is shown when Ishibashi see the video 'LED Throwies', tiny lights embedded in the magnet and then dumped on the surface of the metal. "It's like graffiti on," says Ishibashi.
It seems that the trend in Japan is creative, you are interested in trying?

Sauber C33 - smaller rear brakes 28 March 2014
New for 2014 is the introduction of fly-by-wire brakes, or brake-by-wire, where the connection between the driver's brake pedal and the brake system is electrical rather than mechanical. This is to give better control over the front-to-rear brake balance when the ERS (Energy Recovery System) is in harvesting mode during braking. With the ERS's increased capacity this year, the electrical braking percentage on the rear axle when harvesting has also increased to around 15 percent of the total braking power. This has allowed teams to change the rear brake caliper and disc specification, mainly to save weight, included increased machining detail on the caliper.Last year the typical rear brake assembly had the same six-piston calliper and disc size as the front. Now some teams, including Sauber (shown), Red Bull and Mercedes, have gone for a four-piston caliper and a smaller disc at the rear. In the event of an electronic failure in the fly-by-wire system, the brakes still have to work mechanically as before. However, as we saw with Kamui Kobayashi's accident at the first corner in Melbourne, sometimes increasing the complexity of a system can have its own pitfalls.

The independence of size perception and distance perception
- Ralph Norman Haber,
- Charles A. Levin
- … show all 2 hide
Research on distance perception has focused on environmental sources of information, which have been well documented; in contrast, size perception research has focused on familiarity or has relied on distance information. An analysis of these two parallel bodies of work reveals their lack of equivalence. Furthermore, definitions of familiarity need environmental grounding, specifically concerning the amount of size variation among different tokens of an object. To demonstrate the independence of size and distance perception, subjects in two experiments were asked to estimate the sizes of common objects from memory and then to estimate both the sizes and the distances of a subset of such objects displayed in front of them. The experiments found that token variation was a critical variable in the accuracy of size estimations, whether from memory or with vision, and that distance had no impact at all on size perception. Furthermore, when distance information was good, size had no effect on distance estimation; in contrast, at far distances, the distances to token variable or unknown objects were estimated with less accuracy. The results suggest that size perception has been misconceptualized, so that the relevant research to understand its properties has not been undertaken. The size-distance invariance hypothesis was shown to be inadequate for both areas of research.

Best Uncrowded Farmers' Market (2004)
Colorado Fresh Market, East High School
Smaller and less crowded than the market that takes over the Cherry Creek Bed, Bath & Beyond parking lot on Saturdays, the Colorado Fresh Market is held on Sundays from June through October. It's the same zany mix of Colorado honey, Western Slope apples, goat cheese and cinnamon rolls, but at a far less frenetic pace. Here an organic farmer from Paonia will take the time to tell you just how he makes apple cider, and a local baker will serve you a piping hot baguette right out of the oven. Many of these merchants gave up their day jobs to indulge their love of food, and they're happy to share their stories. Bring a lawn chair and your appetite.

Employment for all insurance agents and brokers is expected to grow as fast as the average for all occupations through 2022, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. Individuals with determination and the right skills (including fluency in a foreign language, especially Spanish) should have numerous job opportunities for several reasons. The overall demand for insurance should be strong as the general population grows and the amount of personal and corporate possessions increases. Most homeowners and business executives budget insurance as a necessary expense. In addition, laws that require businesses to provide workers' compensation insurance and car owners to obtain automobile liability protection help to maintain an insurance market.

I'm a firm believer of setting realistic goals. However, I'm also a big thinker who feels that no one should ever sell themselves short. You should never set a goal for yourself that is too easy to accomplish.
Instead, constantly push yourself as hard as possible. Why? Because pushing yourself makes you a stronger person. And who doesn't want to be a stronger person?
So here's a thought: why not set a goal of making this year the best year of your life? Can you think of a single reason why it shouldn't be? I can't.
So how can you make this year an amazing one? Start by doing some the following things. You don't have to do them all, but give a few of them a shot and see how they work out for you.
Stop Waiting
In 2010, make it a goal to stop waiting for things to happen. Get out there and take some action. It doesn't matter if you are still not sure where you want to end up. Just take action and you will be surprised as to what happens. As soon as you start taking action, you get in a rhythm where you constantly get things done.
So say so long to procrastination, there's no room for it this year.
Task: Sometime in the next week or two, I want you to go out and do something you've always wanted to do but have been holding off on. It doesn't matter if it's something crazy like skydiving or simply heading to the bookstore and grabbing a book you have always wanted to read. Just get out there and give it a shot!
Set Goals
If you've ever read a self-help book, you've probably heard of goal setting and how important it is. Without setting goals, you have no idea where you are going or what you are trying to do. Goals also make it easier to get where you want to be because you can actually measure you success based on what your goals are.
Task: In order for 2010 to be the best year ever, I want you to spend a minimum of two hours evaluating your goals and writing them down somewhere. Whether you do it on actual paper or on your computer is completely up to you. The key is to just get the goals down somewhere so you can constantly look at them and remind yourself what it is you want to accomplish.
I want you to really dig deep and throw out some crazy goals for this year. Something you can't even imagine actually accomplishing. This will ensure that you truly push yourself to not only become a better person, but also to make this year the best ever.
Take Time For Yourself
This is a big one. In 2010, make it a goal to take time for yourself. It's amazing how good it feels when you take a break from your everyday life to just relax and enjoy yourself. Try reading, meditating, or something else you find relaxing. I'm a big fan of sitting outside and doing word search puzzles myself.
Task: My guess is you have a pretty hectic schedule the way it is. So take some time to look over your schedule and figure out where you can squeeze in some alone time. If you can, try to get at least 30 minutes each day if possible. If you can't do it everyday, then plan on taking time to yourself every other day.
Enjoy The Moment
We have a tendency to always be looking forward to things that are happening in the future. Am I correct? I know I do it from time to time and it's a tough habit to break. But life is all about living in the moment. Right now is the only "real time" we have in our lives. We can't go back in time and we can't travel forward in time.
So it's important to practice the art of living in the moment.
Task: To live in the moment, try concentrating on what you are doing. For example, a good way to practice living in the moment is by focusing on your food when you eat. Don't read or watch TV while you eat but instead focus on the food, the taste, and the experience. It's amazing how much better it is when you pay attention to what you are eating.
Keep A Journal
This one may not be for everyone, but I am a HUGE fan of keeping journals. The main reason being it allows me to let out my feelings and thoughts. It's also an easy way to track my goals and see what I've accomplished.
It's pretty awesome being able to dial in to a certain day from last year and immediately remember what I did. It works like a second brain, only this one doesn't forget anything.
Task: If you want to give journal writing a try, I highly encourage checking my post: The Art of Journal Writing. It's got some great advice and details on how I keep a journal.
For me, 2010 is going to be a year of focus. The focused mind can accomplish great things and I know this from hands-on experience. This is why goal setting is so important. If you have clear and precise goals, you can focus on them and put all your energy into attaining them.
However, goal setting is no longer enough. We live in a world that is literally FILLED with distractions. Everywhere you turn there is something demanding your attention. Whether it's your phone, Facebook Page, Twitter profile, television, video games, or magazines; they are all full of distractions.
So the secret is to pull yourself away from all the distractions and find a certain place and time that you can focus in on your work, goals, and life. If you have to pull the plug on your router, do it.
I find that working late at night works for me since there are a lot less distractions happening. However, the key is to find a time and place that works for YOU.
Task: The best advice I can give to focus is to start experimenting with what works for you. Keep track of your productivity levels throughout the day and find when your mind is the most focused. This is when you should be busy at work doing the things you love.
Also, schedule some "focus time" into your life where you completely cut yourself off from distractions. Shut off your cellphone, turn off the television, and avoid any distractions you might have in your life.
Is your life filled up beyond capacity? I know mine was not too long ago. It really amazes me at how much stuff we manage to do, as well as accumulate in our lives. From the second we wake up, we perform task after task all the way up until bedtime. It's amazing how we manage to stay sane through our everyday lives.
Luckily, simplifying can completely change your life. You don't have to go full-pledged minimalist to reap the rewards either, though I highly recommend it. Just getting rid of some of your unused belongings can dramatically clear your mind and make you feel more at ease. The same goes for automating small tasks like paying bills and opting out of paper statements. I can tell you one thing, I don't miss getting mail…
Task: This year, try simplifying in at least one way. It might be as simple as scheduling auto billing. This can easily save you a good amount of time over the course of a year. If stuff is your problem, try taking an inventory of all your belongings and figure out what you can get rid of. Less stuff is not only less things to worry about, but it's also less things to clean and find room for.
Try New Things
If 2010 is going to be the best year ever, we need to try some new stuff! I've never met a single person who didn't have at least one thing they wanted to try sometime in their life. Whether it's learning a new language, taking up a new hobby, or starting a business.
Trying new things is what life is all about. Imagine how boring it would be if we were never able to go out and experience what life has to offer.
Task: Set a goal this year to go out and try something you have NEVER done before. There has to be something you've always dreamed of doing or have at least heard about from a friend. Just get out there and give it a shot. If you end up hating it, you can feel good knowing you at least gave it a try.
Learn Something New
This goes right along with the last idea. Just like trying new things, learning new things can change your life for the better. I have always been a big fan of learning because it's fun, challenging, and highly rewarding.
Learning new things also allows us to meet new people, have more in common with those we already know, and expand our minds.
Task: Go out and learn something new this year. It doesn't matter if it's from a book, a class, or on the internet. Just set a goal to learn something new.
If you're not sure what you want to learn about, try grabbing a class schedule from a local community college and take a class you might find interesting. Who knows, you might even end up meeting some awesome like-minded people.
Overcome Fears
I must admit that I have my fears, whether they are of real things (like snakes) or of certain situations (public speaking). I assume most of you out there have fears as well.
So what if we try to overcome our fears this year? What if we go out and actually experience the things we are afraid of? If we can do this, I have a feeling 2010 is going to kick some ass.
Lets say you're afraid of cockroaches. So this year, you decide your going to get over that fear once and for all. So what you are going to do is go out and find a zoo or some other place that has cockroaches.
Even better, you're going to go there and actually get up and close with one. Heck, you might as well pick it up and stare him in the eyes. What an awesome way to kiss that fear goodbye.
Task: First off, I want you to write down a list of things you are afraid of. It doesn't matter if they are big or small, just throw them down on a piece of paper.
Secondly, I want you to go back and look at your fears and figure out what you could do to overcome them. Brainstorm some ideas and write them down next to the fears.
Last but not least, I want you to set a goal to try to overcome at least one of the fears. Even better, try a handful of them and see what happens.
So what are you waiting? Get out there and make 2010 the best year ever!

I am pretty new to this Forum - but not new to Ford. (Worked for Ford here in South Africa at both the Engine and Assembly Plants in Port Elizabeth from 1966 to 1973). Here in S.A. we now have the latest Fiesta range and an a continuation of the previous model design, called the Figo, (facelifted mainly in the frontal area- Fiesta styling - with the earlier platform), which is an entry level range to compete in the growing entry level market. The Figo is only available in a 1.4l and 5dr. derivative. It outsells the more expensive Fiesta which comes in both 1.4l and 1.6l with both 3 and 5dr. hatch versions. So why am I bringing this up? My current car is a 2005 3dr. 1.6 Trend with 16" seven spoke alloys and the most fun to drive - but lacks punch having the 16 valve Duratec 74 Kilowatt engine. The idea of the Figo in a three door sports version with the latest VVT 88 Kilowatt engine seemed to make a lot of sense (similar concept to the RSi here which was the sports version of the earlier Flair range). It could be marketed at a very competitive price and add volume to the range.
I approached Ford South Africa but was told they had no intention of introducing such a derivative...completely baffled me and I would welcome any comment from members here on this topic.

VLC Media Player
A newer version of VLC Media Player is available.
Or, Learn More About VLC Media PlayerOutstanding
Full user review
"universal media player, free, much better than Win M.P."
literally plays any media file
it even plays online streams inside the player environment which is pretty cool
built-in amplifier up to 200% of regular windows volume
customizable interface
advanced media filters/effects/playback measures.Cons
playlist options and sorting/library features have room for more improvements
for beginner users, adding more graphical value to the interface will help over complicated text menus.
memory usage could be reduced. it uses slightly more than win mpSummary
I would say this is a good and necessary program, IF u have needs more than what you can get out of windows media player 11. otherwise it may not do you any good switching to this. Meaning: if you use digital media (especially various formats of digital video) and if u have ever encountered errors for additional codecs used on other players such as windows media player or winamp, this is your guy!
navigation: FFW FRW, NOT simply playing the file, that works just fine, but any attempt to navigate thru the video will end the playback instead of accepting the request.
one major complaint: on certain video formats & files, if the files are incomplete (for instance a partially downloaded file-not using p2p- for instance streaming videos partially downloaded to a PC, or those with a failed download) it will not allow navigation at all and simply ends the playback. this does not happen with a well-codeced windows media player (using K++ codec pack), win mp 11 is capable of playing those incomplete files to the point that data exists-note: when you simply use Firefox add-ons or similar programs to download a flash (.flv) video from a streaming source, the file data is filled in chronological order, meaning that video data construction on your hard starts @ the beginning of the video and goes to the end, so the issue are not the p2p downloads as the mechanism of constructing/downloading the file data is rather fragmented and has nothing to do with the media's chronological order.

As always for every winner there was a loser. Two of those losers were of particular interest. Political neophytes whose high-flying dreams of public service never got off the runway, they shared quite a bit in common: Both were relatively young men, both claimed Cuban heritage, both enjoyed the benefit of prominent fathers, and both were accused of being cynical carpetbaggers. One more thing: We haven't seen the last of them; both probably will seek elected office again.
Demetrio J. Perez has come of age. A 24-year-old candidate for the Miami-Dade County school board on which his namesake father sits, the baby-faced Perez was disqualified from the race by a circuit court judge just days from a likely win at the polls. But not before losing his electoral virginity in the back seat of dear old dad's political machine. In his first run for public office he managed to provoke bitter court fights, public outrage, media excoriation, and a State Attorney's investigation into campaign-finance irregularities.
But none of this has diminished the toothy gleam of Perez's ubiquitous smile. He's even considering another run for a political office after he finishes law school at the University of Miami. "People responded very positively to me, in spite of all the attacks and everything," he says over coffee at the Starbucks across South Dixie Highway from the UM campus. "So it's something to consider. You can't be an elections chaser, but if something presents itself in the future, I'll certainly consider it. But as of right now, there's a whole world ahead of me."
Some fellow students and professors at UM, however, would like Perez to consider the world behind him. Law professor Anthony V. Alfieri, director and founder of the Center for Ethics & Public Service at UM's School of Law, reports that a number of students have discussed filing an "honors code" complaint with the school on the grounds that Perez's conduct during his school-board campaign -- particularly the matter of his supposed residence -- may have involved dishonesty, fraud, deceit, or misrepresentation. If they do, Perez might have to explain himself once again, this time in front of a student honors council, a quasi-judicial tribunal that can recommend punishment to the law school's dean.
According to Alfieri, Perez also might expect a character-and-fitness investigation of his conduct to take place when he seeks admission to the Florida Bar. "It is a troubling matter for the law school community," Alfieri notes. "It has given pause to the students and the faculty. Insofar as our students have experienced [Perez's] travails as a kind of moral object lesson, that's all to the good."
Back at the coffee shop two weeks after the election, Perez ponders this question: If he could rewind to July, would he do anything differently? "That's the $20-million question," he chuckles. "I always say that I wish I could have read the map more carefully that first time. They say hindsight is 20/20, but honestly it's just mind-boggling -- one little detail."
Another little detail: Did he think it appropriate to have two close relatives sitting on the same school board? Perez's perpetual grin wilts slightly around the edges and then quickly returns. He leans forward as he confides that his father posed a similar question: "He asked me: �So, don't you think it's going to be strange?' Some people may say that we have the perfect relationship. I wouldn't trade my father for anybody else. In the end, though, if I was going to go on the [school] board and be his puppet, I'd immediately be out of there when my re-election came up in four years." This was good enough for Perez the elder, who had one more piece of advice for his son: "He told me to really think about it and see if this was what I wanted to do. He told me obviously there are sacrifices when you get into public office. You're now in the public eye."
Frank Cobo, a Perez opponent who didn't make it past the primary, doesn't buy the business about sacrifices and political independence. He believes Perez was never a legitimate candidate, and he's suing to force a new election with all the original candidates except Perez. "He did everything wrong," Cobo asserts. "There isn't one thing he did right. Whether I have a special election or not, I'm proud to say I kept that joker off the board."
The antagonism is lost on Perez. He insists he was always honest about his efforts to find a residence within District 7. "To tell you the truth, I know I didn't do anything wrong," he says. "I am in a career where integrity is important, and frankly it's ludicrous to think I'm going to come out and make up these stories and jeopardize my career for a seat on the school board. I'm at peace with whatever [the various judges] decided. I don't agree with what they said, but I can go to sleep at night knowing I told the truth. I was basing myself on the way the law was written. If people don't agree with that, then they need to change the law."

David and Stacia Kohler's regular hay customers know by 7 a.m. if they'll be baling hay on a particular day, thanks to email newsletters that help clients gain access to quality hay out of the field.
The Kohlers, of Westerville, OH, like this quick, efficient method of marketing hay.
"We send out our email newsletter when we're baling and some customers email back immediately," David Kohler explains. "I usually get phone calls all through the day from people who have received the newsletter and are either coming to pick up several hundred bales right from the field, or are asking for delivery from that day's baling."
The newsletter is sent to nearly 80 customers, most within a 50-mile radius of Kohler Farms.
"This method works a lot better for me than putting ads in the paper," says Kohler. "People seem to be very ready to buy promptly. When I spent money to put ads in the paper in the past, I would only get a few responses."
The newsletters start going out around May 1, kicking off with a greeting that lets customers know it's almost time to put up hay and directing them to the farm's Web site, www.kohlerfarms.com.
Thanks to the newsletter, the Kohlers often have all their hay sold shortly after it's baled. All 20,000 bales they produced last summer were sold by September.
The majority of the Kohlers' business is with horse clients.
"Our customers range from people with one to 30 horses," Kohler says.
The farm's most popular hay products are 60- to 70-lb bales of timothy, orchardgrass-alfalfa and timothy-alfalfa and 50- to 60-lb bales of reed canarygrass mixed with orchardgrass. The Kohlers also sell alfalfa to meat goat breeders, and orchardgrass-alfalfa to alpaca owners, plus they operate a 40-horse boarding stable.

End means testing
PUBLISHED: 03 Dec 2012 00:33:56 | UPDATED: 03 Dec 2012 00:33:56PUBLISHED: 03 Dec 2012 PRINT EDITION: 03 Dec 2012
Amid Treasury's concerns about the lost revenue from superannuation tax concessions, it would be useful to consider an alternative approach. About 80 per cent of pensionable-age Australians receive at least some age pension. The budget would probably be in a better and more predictable position if means testing of the pension was abolished, along with all superannuation tax concessions. All employees would get a 9 per cent pay rise and would be responsible for providing for the lifestyle they want beyond the basic aged pension.

Occupation: President of the United States
Occupational Background: Governor of Texas
Educational Background: Yale University - B.A.; Harvard University - MBA
Prior Governmental Experience: Governor of Texas
I have been honored to serve as President during an historic time for America. Together, we are making our nation safer, stronger, and better.
We have rallied the world to defeat terrorists abroad and strengthened our laws to protect Americans at home. Tax relief for families and small businesses has spurred our economy to its fastest growth in nearly 20 years. Schools are improving with higher standards, strong accountability, and local control. And prescription drug coverage is helping older Americans pay for their medicines.
During the next four years, we will spread opportunity and prosperity to every part of America and continue to lead the cause of freedom and peace in the world. We will ensure every American who wants a job can find one by keeping taxes low, making regulation of small businesses more reasonable, opening up foreign markets, and reducing junk lawsuits. We will pass a comprehensive energy plan to make America more energy independent. We will help more Americans get job training at community colleges. We will make health care more affordable and help families save and invest so every person owns a part of the American Dream. And I will stand with the men and women of our military, law enforcement, and first responders as we defend our homeland, defeat terrorists, and bring peace and freedom to people around the world.
I have a positive and optimistic agenda for America, and I would be grateful for your vote.
