I am a single dad of daughters - which is amusing in and of itself because I grew up with five brothers and have never had to be particularly informed about female issues. So last week my girls and I are on our annual pilgrimage to San Diego for one last escape from the Arizona heat before Scottsdale schools go back in session on August 11th (which is another entire issue!).
As we do on every San Diego journey, we make the obligatory gas and bathroom stop in Yuma - which only exists for bathroom and gas stops for weary travelers midway between San Diego and Phoenix. Shortly after we got back underway complete with DVD players, lap tops and iPods wired, docked and charging, I received a text message from my girls' mother.
"Do not look at Haley"
So, of course I turn and look at her sitting next to me in the front seat. OK, she looks alright so far, thumbs busily texting on her device.
"She can not know you are reading this"
Well I'm holding the Blackberry on the top of the steering wheel with one eye on the screen and the other watching out for California's finest Highway Patrol Officers - hey, I watched CHiPs back in the '70's, too, you know.
"She is having her first period right now"
What?!? My little girl is becoming a women right before my eyes sitting next to me - on my leather upholstery!
"Do NOT look at her!"
Well, she looks the same to the untrained eye, thumbs still pecking at her tiny keyboard.
Through out the next three hours past El Centro and El Cajon, her mom and I exchange text messages plotting out a plan of action, and her mom texts her reassurance that it will all turn out OK while I watch out for Ponch and Jon to bust me for texting while driving. For some unexplainable reason, Haley could not know that I know that she was having her own little personal puberty crisis - but what do I know, I'm just the dad.
The plan was for me to make a quick visit to the drug store as soon as we reached our beach cottage - and call her mother to have her talk me into the correct product solution. I've been a single man for a lot of years in my life - both before and after my marriage. So I am well versed in getting into and out of a store as quickly as possible. And one strategy is to avoid the irrelevant - for instance, before I got my loyal Golden Retriever, there was absolutely no reason to ever traffic the pet food aisle - and such was the case for the feminine hygiene aisle and me.
So there I am, making my way to that mysterious aisle I've managed to avoid for a life time. And to my horror - my trusty communication device is showing no bars. FYI - there is no cell phone reception inside the Pacific Beach Ralphs. I will have to fly solo on this trip. Not to worry - I'm a grown up, I can take care of my own child, right? My first impression? I had no idea that so many different shades of pink existed in the universe! You have your white pinks, your warm pinks, your cool pinks...and I really have to admire so many different versions of swoopy curves separating the different shades of pink on all the pretty packages. There must be a law somewhere that to market a feminine hygiene product, it must be pink with swoops.
As I stand there overwhelmed by choices, I notice carts are gathering at each end of the aisle. Their drivers hesitate to approach my station. OK, so I did just complete a 6-hour drive through the hottest climate in North America but as I showered at five this morning, I couldn't really smell THAT bad already - I guess. Back to the task at hand. Pads, liners, mini, maxie, medium, mini-medium, maxie-medium, maxie-mini, mini-maxie - OK, this is getting confusing. The final straw - with or without WINGS? What do women do with these things anyway?
Now as visitors to this site are certainly aware, the product selection on this hallowed aisle extends from the floor to well out of reach of the average 5'4" American woman. With so many choices, certainly there must be something to clue in the uninitiated that it is a product specifically for pubescent girls. So I stoop to read all the little boxes all the way down on the bottom row - where's the Miley Cyrus endorsement when you really need her?
Then I hear it. The carts are rolling in mass. Like a heard of African wildebeests waiting to cross the crocodile infested river, once one cart made a break for it, the rest charged with wild abandon and we're not talking VISA Mastercard either. From my point of view on the floor I saw 40-pound bags of ice, charcoal bricketts, cases of soda, every bulky beach item ever put under a shopping cart was flying my way directed by kamikaze cart pilots who intuitively sensed that I was at that moment my most vulnerable. I had invaded their inner sanctum of the pink aisle and they were going to do something about it.
Certainly in this mass of rushing femininity, there would be a generous mom who would take pity on a pitiful papa. I search for a kind face. But no one will even look me in the eye. Swoopy pink packages fly off the shelves crashing into speeding carts (where's Ponch and Jon when you really need them?). And no one even slows down. After the heard makes it to the other side, safe from the crocs, I make my decision: I'm taking one of everything that looks reasonable close to what I think my daughter needs. We'll take wings and no wings.
"Are you a coach? Or a chaperon?", Skyy, the pierced lip, multi-colored-hair check out clerk asks. "I mean you must be here with ALOT of girls. That will be 136 dollars and 45 cents - would you like to apply for a Ralphs card today and save 13 dollars on your order?" Wow, I never knew periods were so expensive.
Back at the cottage, I had to sneak in and hide all the products under the bathroom sink. Fortunately, the cabinet door was just able to close by carefully arranging all the boxes and packages just so. On my cue, her mom called and instructed her to look under the sink.
We all survived Haley's entry into womanhood and enjoyed our week of sun, sand and swoopy pink. Now if I can just get her to not hide her underwear, I can finish the dank, sandy laundry and chalk up another adventure successfully completed by Scottsdale Dad and his girls.
My husband thought he'd be able to handle our daughter's right of passage - not! He manages to pass that aisle of pink and blue packaged female products as though they don't exist. In our local grocery store, they're along the same aisle as the baby diapers, which makes it easier for him. The only thing is that the "male" products are at the end of the same aisle - go figure!
You're a brave dad. Thank you for sharing your very funny story.
August 11, 2008 - 6:22pmHi, Scottsdale Dad!
Wow! Makes my experience when my eldest daughter started her period totally pale in comparison.... not even any wildebeests or crocodiles. If it's any consolation, I get intimidated every time I walk down the crazy feminine product aisle. (Those products would be sooo different if they were actually created and marketed by women!!)
Congrats for not just surviving your daughter's entry into womanhood, but sorting through all those endless pink swoops.

How to Plan National STD Awareness Month Activities
Download version formatted for print:Schools (PDF: 104KB/2 pages)
National STD Awareness Month is an annual national health observance sponsored by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to help break the silence and to alert everyone to the growing crisis of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) in America. The Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) encourages all Minnesotans to learn about STDs, one of the state's most persistent (yet preventable) health problems, during the observance of National STD Awareness Month. Public awareness and knowledge remain critically low around the country and STDs are occurring at epidemic levels, particularly among 15 to 29 year olds. The MDH received 23,133 new case reports of chlamydia, gonorrhea and syphilis in 2013. To help get the word about National STD Awareness Month in your community, please refer to the following planning guidelines and suggested activities:
Obtain STD brochures, fact sheets and posters:
http://www.cdcnpin.org; or
http://www.NoMasSTDs.com - Set aside class time for a special lesson or speaker on STDs or start a peer education program
- Invite a health care worker from an STD testing site to come and talk to students about STD signs and symptoms
- Sponsor a poster, T-shirt, exhibit, or bumper sticker design contest for National STD Awareness Month
- Create a special STD writing assignment for April: essay, poem, book report, brochure, poster or research report
- Air public service announcements/radio announcer scripts about STDs over the school public address system
- Distribute brochures and information about STDs at an exhibit set up in the school
- Make a long-term commitment to develop and support STD prevention education in the context of comprehensive school health education
- Decorate trees, school buildings, classrooms, lamp posts, or fences with STD posters
- Form a youth rap, dancing, singing or theater group that dedicates performances to STD prevention
- Prepare a current events bulletin board for students to fill with newspaper articles about STDs
- Have older students from the local high school, trained as peer educators, talk to younger junior high or elementary school students about STDs
- Make adolescents aware of the free and confidential national and state hotlines available to them
- Design and implement a peer-led media campaign for the school
- Create a board game/quiz on STD facts. Post on social media networks
- Write a letter or article for the school newspaper or web site about STDs
- Plan a special session for the parents to learn about how to talk with their children about STDs
- Obtain a video or slide set from the MDH library for teaching parents the facts about STDs
- Show videos/DVDs that portray teens talking about their personal experiences with STDs
- Get permission from your school to set-up and staff a display at a public mall, retail center/store or public building
- Prepare a lesson that addresses how drug and alcohol use impair judgment and increases the risk of getting an STD

Defendant Attempted to use Fake Tax Filings to Defraud the U.S. Treasury
A Kelowna, British Columbia welder was sentenced today in U.S. District Court in Seattle in connection with a widely advertised tax fraud scheme. JOHN CHUNG, 59, was sentenced to a year and a day in prison, three years of supervised release and $291 in restitution for theft of government funds. CHUNG has already forfeited to the government most of the $369,534 he sought to steal with the phony tax filings. At sentencing, Chief U.S. District Judge Robert S. Lasnik noted that CHUNG's conduct was "a serious departure from the rest of your life." Chief Judge Lasnik called those who were promoting the tax fraud scheme "snake-oil salesmen," and he urged CHUNG to spread the word when he returned to Canada that "if it sounds too good to be true, it is."
According to filings in the case, CHUNG attempted to execute what is referred to as "1099-OID fraud" -- falsely claiming that he was owed $369,534.60 in federal income tax that had been withheld on his behalf. On September 8, 2009, CHUNG filed a 1040NR tax return and phony 1099-OID forms with the Internal Revenue Service. The IRS initially did not detect the fraud and sent CHUNG a check. CHUNG then traveled to Bellingham, Washington, and opened a bank account to deposit the check. An alert bank employee notified the IRS when she became suspicious about the size of the refund check. A second Canadian, Donald J. Mason, was arrested the same day trying to execute a similar scheme. In court today, CHUNG's defense attorney Stephan Illa, described how CHUNG had attended seminars presented by well dressed "experts" who claimed the tax refund scheme was legal. It was, Mr. Illa said, "the seduction of easy money."
Assistant United States Attorney Thomas Woods noted that the scheme required CHUNG to engage in "cold, calculating conduct over several months . . . and at a variety of points he could have stopped." In sentencing documents, prosecutors noted that the IRS has tried to publicize the fraud with web postings.
Speaking to the court, CHUNG said, "I've had six months to think about my situation... It was a greed situation... I'll never do anything like this again." CHUNG has been in custody at the Federal Detention Center at SeaTac since October 29, 2009. He pleaded guilty in February 2010. He will be deported to Canada following his prison term.
On April 13, 2010, Donald Mason was convicted at trial of theft of public money. He faces up to ten years in prison when sentenced by U.S. District Judge John C. Coughenour on August 6, 2010.
The case was investigated by the Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation (IRS-CI) and the United States Secret Service.
The case was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorneys Thomas Woods and Tessa Gorman.

Interesting that software is "at a dead end" is the analysis based on this news. Why not rather announce that most software/programming tasks are fundamentally sequential and not paralel in nature, and conclude that there is a tremendous disconnect between what's going on in the hardware and software communities?
A little .NET news today.
It appears that something fundamental like Application.StartupPath is broken in .Net 1.1 in some situations. If your application was not started via a shortcut, but some other system service like registering a device plug-in event with the WIA Automation tools then .NET will report the StartupPath as \windows\system32 instead of the actual location of your .exe.
I've seen a few BD movies now: Black Hawk Down, The Descent, Ice Age 2, Total Recall, Underworld: Evolution. The difference in quality is amazing. Its easy to get used to how it looks until I switch to a standard DVD of the same content. On large screens pretty much every flaw is visible and doing A/B between BD and DVD leaves no question that HD optical discs are "worth it" in terms of cost/benefit. The HD optical discs on the PS3 and 360 are genious in that respect since many people have/would have the systems anyway.
Waiting for Virtua Fighter 5 and Lair now...
Opening my mail yesterday (I was way behind) a surprise property tax refund nagged me to buy a Playstation 3. I'm surprised how much head-shaking and criticism this has been met with from my gamer friends. The price and the weak launch lineup are the most commonly cited reasons. The PS2 had a far worse launch with a worse shortage and weaker launch lineup and 75million consoles later I don't hear anyone complaining. As for the price, well, I wanted a BluRay player for my home theater so even if I never play any games I'll get my $600 worth. I was playing Blast Factor last night and I'm downloading Gran Tourismo HD tonight. I've never been a fan of FPS games on a console (too stuck in the PC mode of play control) so I'll be passing on what are the big PS3 games right now: Reistance: Fall of Man and Call of Honor or Medal of Duty 3 or whatever it's called. Indeed I think I'll be finishing FFXII on the PS3 and doing the downloadable games for a while until Lair comes out, and of course Final Fantasy XIII this fall.
I'm having a lot of fun, lighten up Sony haters.
(Of course when the Xbox 360 comes out with an HDMI connection I might have to score one of those to play that BioShock thinger that's coming out)
Congratulations Jen, and hurry up and start bringing home aditional bacon! ;)
I like horror movies and H.P. Lovecraft, very cool.

The 2009 Formula One season has already had its fair share of major stories, but all are set to be surpassed by Michael Schumachers planned comeback in the forthcoming European Grand Prix, replacing Felipe Massa. One man who knows all about comebacks is Niki Lauda, who walked away from the sport in 1979, only to return two seasons later and ultimately win a third world title. We got his take on Schumachers prospects
Q: Niki, what was the reason for your return and what do you think is Michaels?
Niki Lauda: Lets leave aside my reasons - thats all too long ago and they definitely were different from his. Lets focus on Michael. He was never able to detox himself of the racing bug, as we have seen with his on-track motorcycle activities. In my opinion he retired at the end of the 2006 season because he couldnt see a real challenge - and probably he regretted his decision. Now hes got the unique chance to step in for the injured Massa to help his former team, and to find out for himself how competitive he still is. This is something that would also interest me, because this hunger for competition - for the adrenalin rush - never dies. Its in our DNA. And the situation as it is now at Ferrari, with a recovering Massa and an available cockpit, gives him the chance to explore how far hes off the top. That is a question that always puzzles a top driver like he was.
Q: What about his age? When you returned to the Formula One cockpit you were 31 years old - Michael is 40
NL: Forget about the age. He is fit, hes undergoing rigorous training and mentally he is taking up the challenge. He will do everything possible to be fit as a fiddle in Valencia. True, there are some obstacles that he has to overcome, like his unfamiliarity with the track and that hes had no chance to test this years car, but thats part of his challenge and thats why hes doing it. And thats why the whole world will be watching.
Q: Fitness plays a major role. Michael was exercising all the time - how was it with you back then?
NL: Yes, Michael has tried to retain as much as possible his fitness from his race days. Look, he was able to put in a whole day in the old car in Mugello a few days ago. With me it was different. I hadnt done anything for two years and when I did my first test in October 1981 I hardly managed three laps. That was a sharp signal for me that Id better start improving my fitness immediately if my return to Formula One was not to end as a farce. So this was a whole different situation to the one that Michael is in. Basically, he has to focus mainly on the muscles that are called on in an F1 car - and, of course, the neck - but that should be manageable in the next two weeks. But in the end the final word will be with the doctors, to decide whether he is in the physical state to race.
Q: You became world champion again in your third year back from retirement. What do you think Michael can achieve?
NL: I actually won the second race back after my retirement, but Michael is not racing for any championship. I came back because I wanted to win, if my comeback was successful. For Michael its nothing more than an interesting experiment.
Q: How long will his guest appearance last?
NL: Only as long as Massa is in his recovery process. Period.

Most solid tumors and their metastases experience periods of low oxygen or hypoxia, which is of major clinical significance as it promotes both tumor progression and resistance to therapy. Critical mediators of the hypoxic response are the hypoxia-inducible factors HIF-1α and HIF-2α. The HIFs are nonredundant and regulate both overlapping and unique downstream target genes. Here, we describe a novel mechanism for the switch between HIF-1α- and HIF-2α-dependent transcription during tumor hypoxia caused by the hypoxia associated factor (HAF). HAF is overexpressed in a variety of tumors and its levels are decreased during acute hypoxia, but increased following prolonged hypoxia. We have previously identified HAF as an E3 ubiquitin ligase that binds and ubiquitinates HIF-1α by an oxygen and pVHL-independent mechanism, thus targeting HIF-1α for proteasomal degradation. Here, we show that HAF also binds to HIF-2α, but at a different site than HIF-1α, and increases HIF-2α transactivation without causing its degradation. HAF, thus, switches the hypoxic response of the cancer cell from HIF-1α-dependent to HIF-2α-dependent transcription and activates genes involved in invasion such as MMP9, PAI-1, and the stem cell factor OCT-3/4. The switch to HIF-2α-dependent gene expression caused by HAF also promotes an enriched tumor stem cell population, resulting in highly aggressive tumors in vivo. Thus, HAF, by causing a switch from a HIF-1α- to HIF-2α-dependent response to hypoxia, provides a mechanism for more aggressive growth of tumors under prolonged hypoxia.

As an HR manager, it is important to evaluate your company's leadership training program to determine its effectiveness, short- and long-term benefits as well as negative results, if any. Knowing the impact of your existing training program will help you figure out whether the current resource allotment is adequate or lacking, what methods are working and what approaches are no longer useful. Most importantly, it will help you measure any improvement in the participants' overall work performance.
Your company will reap numerous benefits from proper and timely leadership training assessment. Here are five practical ways to check the impact of your training program:
- Administer pre- and post-training surveys. This is one of the easiest and most commonly used methods in evaluating leadership training programs. Use an empirical measurement scale (e.g., common scales used in research on training and development or a scale developed by your company using its own indicators) to assess the participants' knowledge and skills before and after the training. Compare the scores of both surveys per trainee to derive the level of improvement.
- Ask feedback from other employees who directly interact with the training participants. If the participants are managers or top-rank officials, ask direct staff or assistants if there has been a change in their leaders' performance. Likewise, request feedback from the trainees' supervisors. Assure them that the data will be kept confidential and used solely for evaluation purposes. In addition, assure them that the results of the inquiry will not interfere with their relationship with the person in question.
- Gather feedback from clients. For unbiased evaluations, ask the participants' clients to assess pre- and post-training performance. This is considered effective because client responses are usually free from personal bias. Prepare a set of questions or develop criteria that will guide clients in giving feedback.
- Determine the participants' reactions. At the end of a training program, require the trainees to fill out an evaluation form or complete a brief survey. However, one of the disadvantages of this method is that the participants may not share their comments or give detailed responses. This will lead to inaccurate evaluation results.
- Conduct on-the-job evaluation. To see if the leadership training program objectives were met, check in with the participants while they are working. This way, you can observe how the training has influenced their interpersonal skills, management techniques and outputs. After all, leadership training is meant to transform them into better business leaders and more efficient company members.
Celebrate positive evaluation results but be careful not to rest on your laurels. When measuring the effectiveness of your company's leadership training program, also consider other circumstances that could influence short- and long-term impact. For example, non-work factors (e.g., personal problems and health conditions) could affect the participants' performance before, during and after the training. Take these factors into account throughout training program planning and implementation. Always track the progress of leadership training and take advantage of post-training evaluation. Understanding the results will help you design and implement better training programs in the future.

Taxi's Drive office building revs up
Posted By John Mossman On December 4, 2012 @ 6:16 pm In Colorado Business,Construction and Renovation,Office,Real Estate,Retail | No Comments
The new Drive office building in Zeppelin Development's Taxi complex in River North has opened and is fully leased.
The 38,000-square-foot, four-story structure includes a mix of creative high-tech firms, with Boa Technology — maker of the award-winning, patented Boa Closure System — occupying nearly two-thirds of the building.
The building is a collaboration between Zeppelin, lead designer Stephen Dynia Architects and the architect of record, Barker Rinker Seacat — both of which are Taxi-based businesses.
Zeppelin calls Drive the furthest evolution of the overall Taxi project, with a more democratic format than virtually any other office building in the market. Small, dynamic firms are located on the top and lower floors, with Boa located in between.
The building includes 53 operating glass garage doors, which afford tenants an open-air work environment with natural light and views, and an 80-foot skylight with corresponding glass floors that transmit sunlight throughout the building from the rooftop.
Other tenants include a hair and nail salon, sandwich counter and coffee shop.

I didn't write much about the Dodgers last season - nothing worth writin' about there. But the sports world is a'buzzin with the news yesterday that Joe Torre has quit his executive job with MLB to pursue ownership, with Rick Caruso, of the Dodgers.
Bill Shaikin has an excellent article in the LA Times this morning on the status and hard facts of the ownership process. It begins:
The Dodgers ownership derby is fast becoming the most intriguing reality show in Los Angeles with athletic legends, civic icons and assorted billionares jockeying for control of a team mired in bankruptcy proceedings.
As of today, according to the Times, the following groups have expressed interest in buying the Dodgers:
Joe Torre, with developer Rick Caruso
Magic Johnson
Mark Cuban
Steven Cohen ("billionarie eight times over")
Dennis Gilbert ("onetime agent for Barry Bonds and champion of amateur baseball in LA)
Ron Burkle and Tom Golisano
Peter O'Malley*
Orel Hershiser*
Fred Claire*
*while these three men are connected by the fact that they were all involved with the Dodgers during the last World Series won (1988), they are bidding as part of separate groups.
Some other factoids and calendar dates:
1. Initial bids are due January 23. MLB has agreed to approve up to 10 bids. BUT, the new owner will be selected by Frank McCourt, NOT Bud Selig.
2. The sale is expected to command $1 billion for the team.
3. McCourt has agreed to complete the sale by April 30.
4. While the team is one of the jewels of baseball and revenue at the park was $289 million in 2008 alone, the real nugget are the television rights. The Dodgers' contract with Fox Sports expires after this year.

Wow, this is such a great video — the story of Todd Sylvester:

I can't even begin to write all of the bogusness i've seen with the InnoDB engine for MySQL tables.
#1 – Every other day, i'm having to recover some customer's database because their InnoDB tables crashed.
So I put these lines in /etc/my.cnf:
Then mysqld starts up.
And then i can dump/export out the problem databases to .sql files, and then drop(delete) them from mysql.
I can then remove those lines from my.cnf and restart mysqld ok.
#2 – I can then recreate the databases BUT then when i go to import the dumped .sql files it recreates the tables as MyISAM instead of InnoDB; it says "Error: Unknown storage engine 'InnoDB'"
Absolutely freaking insane. It's the same my.cnf as before; no changes!!!
I hate innodb with an unholy passion; may it go to Hades. So much wasted time.
P.S. If i'm missing some my.cnf settings that will keep InnoDB db's stable, please educate me!
25 years ago, the Chinese government massacred thousands of it's own people in Beijing on June 4th and 5th, 1989. It was known as the Tiananmen Square Massacre even though most were killed just outside of the square. Thousands more were wounded on those days.
#1 – Please do watch this chilling and tear-bringing documentary about it — The Tank Man — at http://video.pbs.org/video/1146923141/
The Chinese government has since that time gone to extreme lengths to cover up the horrible things they did. Chinese citizens are still thrown into prison for trying to tell others about it. And their government has tried to censor and shut down any websites that share people's stories about what happened on those days.
#2 – Please do share the video's link on social media and blog about it! We need to let Chinese citizens know about it. May they peacefully reform their government like the eastern european countries did in 1989-1990.
There was a pretty high profile security breach a few weeks ago that you might not have heard about.
A hacker made several calls to a company to get info about one of their customers that he wanted to hack. He pretended to be the customer.
Even though you may not work in customer service this is a good read.
The same thing can happen(or has happened) via multiple calls to people at their homes from a team of hackers who take turns pretending to be different companies and they each get a little piece of info, until they have enough to assume their identity.
Check it out @ Internet company owns up to their role in epic account hijacking.
P.S. And the follow-up @ The moral of the story: People are the easiest thing to hack!
Stay awesome y'all!
If not, do it!!!
It only takes a minute and it will save you a lot of pain and grief! Because Smokey says "only you can prevent [hacks]!"
Wow, i didn't fully believe this title when i first read it:
Email with a non-English Subject like:
Subject: =?UTF-8?B?0J/RgNC+0LZABtytdGA0LrQsA==?=
The part between =?UTF-8?B?
and ?=
is a base64-encoded string.
Put it in a file.
base64 -d file
P.S. to encode something, put the regular English text into a file. Then base64 text.file > encoded.file

BGI Worldwide Logistics has built an international import and export logistics network that offers shipping and brokerage services. You can count on BGI for reliable and innovative services to get your goods to or from nearly any destination worldwide.
Companies that rely on ocean freight shipping services to transport cargo understand the importance of choosing a trusted shipping company and the enormous implications an inexperienced freight broker or consultant can have if the shipment goes wrong or gets held up in customs. BGI Worldwide Logistics is licensed as a Non-Vessel Operating Common Carrier (NVOCC), and is a bonded ocean freight forwarder. This means BGI has significant industry experience and the financial stability you can trust.
We offer a complete range of ocean import and export freight services including general cargo, specialized items, oversized loads, heavy equipment, hazardous materials (hazmat), and high value. BGI offers transit with carriers designed to handle specialized cargo, for cargo that doesn't conform to standard container sizes. Most roll on roll off cargo is stored under deck to ensure it remains protected.
BGI also offers domestic ocean freight services from any domestic port of origin within North America including Hawaii and Alaska as well as commonwealths such as Guam, American Samoa, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands to any domestic destination.
BGI provides door-to-door services including drayage for full containers. A full container load (FCL) is cargo moving in a single rigid, sealed, reusable metal box in which the merchandise is shipped by an ocean carrier. All containers will have construction fittings, or fastenings able to withstand, without permanent distortion, all stresses that may be applied in normal service use of continuous transportation. Shipping full containers helps lower shipping costs. Click here to see container specifications.
BGI's expert consolidation services can combine smaller shipments (LCL) that are going to the same destination port, and provide you with reduced shipping costs. At the port of destination, we carefully deconsolidate the shipment and deliver to the final destination. A less than container load (LCL) shipment is a shipment of cargo that does not fill a container and is merged with cargo for more than one consignee or from more than one shipper. LCL freight costs are based on a dollar amount per cubic meter.
BGI has an extensive network of FCL and LCL carriers who can accomodate almost any commercial shipment.
BGI offers standard 20' and 40' ocean shipping containers and the following specialized equipment:

Anyone recommend a good heater to warm up swamp cooler water ? Slainte
Hm ok I haven't heard of heating the cooling water before but I would think a submersible aquarium heater might work, probably the higher the wattage the better, up through maybe 400 watts.
When I looked for one, I found most started at temperatures in the 70s, and I wanted one that would keep water heated to the mid 60s in the winter months for standard ale brewing (I brew in the basement). I went on-line and found one for about $15. I just checked the box, and it says "EHEIM Jager 3631" It is 75 Watts, good for tanks 16 to 26 gallons, and can be set for temperatures from 65 to 93 F. I've never managed to get my fermenter above about 84 F with it. I think it is because I don't circulate the water as in a fish tank, and the top is open. 84 F is fine for me. Hope this helps.
It depends on the volume of your tub. Aquarium heaters have varying wattages for different sized tanks. It will say on the packaging what volume its appropriate for. Choose (at minimum) the next wattage up for your volume. Get a powerhead too for an even distribution. Brand really wont matter.

So, do they work?
Thanks to the sheer volume of how many sites love making promises they turn out to not know how to keep, it is perfectly normal being skeptical of whether or not a social site will serve the purposes you have in mind. Not to mention the fact that with how many sites there are out there, individually searching and using them each can take a large chunk out of the time you could use toward something much better – romancing the next lady to enjoy your company. Your question does Adult Dating work is perfectly reasonable and we are here to give you the real answer.
To keep it short and simple: yes.
Of course, as is anything when there are women involved, the answer is a little more complicated than that. Asking if adult dating works is a question which needs to be more narrowly defined. The truth of the matter is that yes, while it does work, it depends on a number of contributing factors which ultimately decide your outcome. The more you know about what will help you succeed and what will not, the better your results will be.
If you don't want to get down to the nitty gritty on how to mold your profile into something which will garner more replies, by all means continue forth. Your answer has been hailed: the members' consensus toward your question "does Adult Friend Finder work?" is yes, it does. It works even better if you are willing to put a little effort into it.
Make your profile engaging.
Keep in mind that you are not the first person to wonder if these work – meaning those millions of users who bit the bullet before you got the chance to have already put themselves out there. The prospect of competing in that density of a user database can be intimidating, but you have to look at it from a different perspective: what is something you have that they don't?
The answer to that question should be answered by something not quantitative to the quality of your looks. Your choice of style and the way you carry yourself are things which will help you in person. To a degree, they will also help with your online persona, but you have to think of these things outside of the box. Asking does Adult Friend Finder work will give you a much more ideal outcome if you know what way to go about using it. From the perspective of the person you are trying to court, there are many things that they will take into consideration you may have never thought of before. Consider the following points:
· Your profile filled out. Understandably, many women are leery or put off by men who put little to no effort in filling out the information on their profile. While it may seem tedious, taking an extra ten to fifteen minutes to fill in some trivial information may dramatically help you in terms of getting the girl you want.
· How you introduce yourself. Think about it: women have hundreds of men messaging them a month. You have to make yourself stick out from the norm – let it be known that you are more than the competition trying to steal the girl you are into. Be engaging, use correct grammar, and leave the conversation open ended. Ask questions which make it sound as though you're interested in her.
· The pictures you use. While it's nice to show off how prized you are in the downstairs department, many women are not interested in that being the first thing they see from you. Include full body and face pictures in your profile and see the difference it makes in the amount of replies you get.
Now that you know you have a chance, don't be afraid to put yourself out there. Who knows what could happen? If you work at it, you could have the lady of your dreams in your bed with you by tonight.

This set of three videos illustrates how math is used in satellite data analysis. The videos feature NASA senior climate scientist Claire Parkinson. Parkinson explains how the Arctic and Antarctic sea ice covers are measured from satellite data and... (View More) how math is used to determine trends in the data. In the first video, she leads viewers from satellite data collection through obtaining a time series of monthly average sea ice extents for November 1978 – December 2012, for the Arctic and Antarctic. In the second video, she begins with the time series from the first video, removes the seasonal cycle by calculating yearly averages, and proceeds to calculate the slopes of the lines to get trends in the data, revealing decreasing sea ice coverage in the Arctic and increasing sea ice coverage in the Antarctic. In the third video, she uses a more advanced technique to remove the seasonal cycle and shows that the trends are close to the same, whichever method is used. She emphasizes the power of math and that the techniques shown for satellite sea ice data can also be applied to a wide range of data sets. (View Less)

For anyone coming in a little late to the game (no pun intended) the new Xbox One coming out on November 22nd is probably sold out everywhere for preorder, unfortunately. But that doesn't mean you absolutely won't be able to get one for Christmas. You may have some options still available.
Stores have been taking pre-order for Xbox One for a few months, since the original release date was announced. By ordering early, many buyers were able to get an Xbox One Day One Console. You can also place orders on some sites like Amazon to be notified when they have Xbox One in stock, either late December or January 2014. But that's no consolation for buyers who are hoping to treat the family to a new Xbox One console under the Christmas Tree.
It's unlikely that buying an Xbox One online is an option for December delivery. But there are a couple options for very patient buyers. Many big box retailers and some other brick and mortar stores will have Xbox One consoles available for first come, first served buyers on release day. For example, Best Buy has posted on its website that stores will have limited consoles in stock in addition to those available for pre-order buyers. They state clearly however that there is no guarantee that a certain number of consoles will be available at any given store, and that quantity may vary from store to store. But if you are looking for a console, you may want to contact a local store a couple days before release day to see if they can provide any information.
Most other big retailers will likely have the same situation. Along with Best Buy, stores like Target, WalMart, Game Stop, Sears, Kmart and others are all selling the Xbox One. You can contact local stores to find out if they will have extra consoles available for sale.
The next issue will be whether you want to wait in line on midnight of the 21st to be able to grab one of the consoles that might be available! For some gamers, it might be worth it if they missed the window for pre-ordering Xbox One. But you will have to decide for yourself whether it's important that you get the console on the first day.
Now, many gamers, even serious gamers, are not buying on the first day. The Xbox One console is the most expensive at $499, and since it's not backward compatible, gamers have to buy all new games and controllers. If you play with a certain group of friends, remember that unless they ALL have Xbox One, you won't all be able to play together. That's not so say there aren't some great games coming out too, some exclusive, for the Xbox One, including Titanfall, and versions of Call of Duty: Ghosts and Assassins Creed IV Black Flag.
You may want to do what many players are doing, which is wait until 2014 to order your Xbox One, when they are available everywhere, and you have paid off some of your Christmas bills. If you don't have an Xbox 360, they are super affordable now, and Microsoft is going to be supporting it for three more years. Developers too will be releasing new games for the 360 platform. For the family that wants an Xbox under the tree, the Xbox 360 might be worth a look.
The Xbox One might be hard to find, but it's still possible, if you take some time to check around first, and don't mind camping out in line a few hours before release night!

"It was pretty easy to design the card with the tools Tiny Prints provides. I wish there was more space for the text, however it still came out quite professional-looking. The quality of the paper & printing was above & beyond what I expected."
"The website was easy to use, they were very quick to ship and the cards are beautiful. I will definitely order again in the future. Thank you!!"
"I was very happy with the finished product and have received many compliments on this card. Also the customer service I received was exceptional, and made the whole process very easy. Thank you so much!"
"Hands down, I'm giving this card 5 stars in all category. Only 2 photos but the whole design did the trick of excellent design. Just love it, love it!"
"My daughter was able to play around with fonts etc.enough to make it her own, which was great! We didnt get the thickest paper (would have been a little better , but price goes up too) we are still very pleased with them. We did get the sheen on the paper and that just made it! Went with regular shipping and it was here sooner than they said. WIN! WIN!"

Most also contain a multiple cloning site (MCS, or polylinker), which is a short region containing several commonly used restriction sites allowing the easy insertion of DNA fragments at this location.
The carefully chosen enzyme cuts the plasmid in the Multiple Cloning Site only once. The Multiple Cloning Site is situated in the middle of the Lac gene, which codes for the galactosidase.2) The Insert is cut with the same enzyme (s) as the vector ...
Vector-specific PCR primers flanking the multiple cloning site (MCS) and containing either T7 or SP6 RNA polymerase promoters were used to synthesize double-stranded DNA templates for the labeling in vitro transcription reaction.
Cloning vectors minimally contain an origin of replication, selectable marker gene (e.g., ampicillin resistance gene), and multiple cloning site containing unique restriction enzyme sites; other useful features may also be present.

Runx2 is a Runt domain transcription factor involved in the activation of genes encoding osteoblast and chondrocyte-specific proteins. Runx2 activity is regulated by transcriptional and post-transcriptional mechanisms. The functional significance of the post-translational modification of Runx2 has not been fully defined. We show that cyclin D1-Cdk4 induce Runx2 degradation in an ubiquitination-proteasome-dependent manner. Mutagenesis of Runx2 serine-472, a consensus Cdk site, to alanine increases the half-life of Runx2 and causes loss of sensitivity to cyclin D1-induced Runx2 degradation. The targeted Runx2 degradation by cyclin D1 identifies a novel mechanism through which Runx2 activity is regulated coordinately with the cell cycle machinery in bone cells.
