The Blood Type Diet Archives Volume 15
Posted By: Pat A1+ Secretor MMDate: Saturday, 24 February 2001, at 12:06 a.m.
In Response To: BRAND NEW STUDY SHOWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (THOMAS DEKANY A1+ /INFJ /not an expert, but helpful)
Right on Thomas! If you wanted to you could find a study or a paper to prove or dis-prove anything. And that's correct you couldn't eat anything if you listened to every report written. Since soy is such a staple for A's it's very disturbing to hear so much negative stuff about soy. I guess at some point you have to decide for yourself what & who to believe. If you have a problem with soy fine don't eat it. I love my A diet soy and all. Of course soy is not all I eat. For me the A diet offers me so many choices I'm never bored and never eat too much of any one kind of food. My diet has a lot of variety. At this moment in time, because of my personal success, and my observation of others I choose to believe Dr.D'Adamo. You add a lot of possitive energy to this board Thomas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love Pat.................

Shaw-Marsh Nature PreserveShaw-Marsh Nature Preserve is primarily accessible by water and is roughly located 16 miles east of Grayling on North Down River Road and 30 miles north of St. Helen via F97. At-grade access for person with special needs can be obtained by requesting a special use permit from the SBLC. The preserve is located on the North Branch of the AuSable River south of Kellogg Bridge and the access is approximately 2.5 stream miles south of this bridge on the east bank at GPS coordinates of Latitude 44.694416° and Longitude -84.407821°. Four marked walking trails traverse the 4.3 acre preserve and the preserve can be a public canoeing resting point between the public canoe access points of Sheep Pasture (upstream of the preserve) and Parmalee Bridge (on the Main Branch of the AuSable River just east of the confluence of the North Branch with the Main Branch), a trip distance of approximately 25 stream miles (a day's canoeing).
Kellogg Bridge on North Down River Road can be reached from the west by taking North Down River Road (F32) from Bus I75 in Grayling east to a point just east of the intersection of F97. Kellogg Bridge can be reached from the south via St. Helen Road (Exit 222 from I-75) and going north on F97 for 30 miles to its intersection with North Down River Road/F32, then east to the bridge. The preserve can be also be accessed via wading the river from state-owned land just upstream on the west bank. The river entry point from this state land is located at the end of North Fork Trail (a two-track road from McMasters Bridge Road/F97). North Fork Trail intersects McMasters Bridge Road approximately 1.5 miles south of North Down River Road and runs northeast to a short walking distance from the river bank. The north branch is primarily bordered by private land. The Morley Road canoe access upstream from Shaw-Marsh Nature Preserve can be found by driving 1.4 miles east of Kellogg Bridge on F32 and turning south on Morley Road to its end at the river approximately 1.8 miles. |

Perhaps you should listen to More Or Less on Radio 4 Edi, a show devoted to delving into the true meaning behind 'statistics and numbers', and to show they don't ALWAYS take it too seriously, here is a short interview they did with Count Von Count from Sesame Street.

yes i can confirm all this. a very important fact edi mentioned is that setups were exchangable and in the end beside some personal taste details the jabbers basicly used the same setup.
all this happened without military drill but just by speaking and listening to each other. the jabber team was a team without anyone beeing forced to join it if you know what i mean. personally i am just a bit proud of beeing in the top 4 after qualification as the only driver who never before had driven this track. this shows that edis`preperation ahead was really good and my jabber was able to adopt his setup even though my style of driving and wishes to a bike are totally different to his. |

Have you ever wondered to yourself: "Hey self what would it be like to have to spend 91 days pooping with cameras around"?
Well wonder no more because tonight some of the Housemates decided to school Africa once and for all about the art of defection inside of the Big Brother House.
"At home you usually wipe and then check the toilet paper and then you fold it in half and then wipe again. But here I don't even check," shared Maria as the Housemates were all gathered in the kitchen for a late dinner. "I am afraid to even wipe from the back, I just wipe from the front," the Namibian added. "You just gotta do what you gotta do," her friend Dillish chipped in.
Eew, talk about TMI (Too Much Information)! Come on girls that is not the kind of conversation a lady should ever have more especially not at the dinner table.
There have been a lot of weird and wacky conversations in the Big Brother House over the years but this one surely makes the grade as one of the wackiest. What do you think about the zany things that Housemates talk about? Funny or filthy?

Why Is Sarah Palin Going to Sudan?
11:36 am in Uncategorized by EdwardTeller
Joe McGinnis writes this morning:
Sarah told the Sunday Times of London, "I am going to Sudan in July and hope to stop in England on the way. I am just hoping Mrs Thatcher is well enough to see me as I so admire her."
Aides to the ailing Margaret Thatcher won't let Sarah anywhere near the former British prime minister. That's no surprise.
But how about the trip to Sudan, where summer temperatures in the capital, Khartoum, average more than 105 degrees? (Maybe the move to Arizona was to acclimatize her.)
On anyone's list of the most unfortunate countries on earth, Sudan would have to be near the top. Put it this way: Sarah's not going there for the shopping.
Can anyone see any reason for Sarah to make this trip other than to give herself another "foreign policy" credential for the 2012 campaign?
–Is Franklin Graham paying for it?
McGinniss goes on to ask a series of intriguing questions about the trip. The answer to this one, though, is that the odds are heavily in favor of "Yes."
Palin is Graham's political protégé.
In early 2009, as Palin's executive abilities in Alaska were rapidly declining, and Alaskans along the lower Yukon and Kuskokwim Rivers faced severe hardships, Graham was the one to lead her mission of mercy delivery of trinkets and blankets to people along the Yukon. The trip was a public relations disaster for her, surpassed that early part of the year only by her choice of a person mostly despised by the same people along those rivers, Wayne Anthony Ross, to be the discredited Talis Colberg's replacement as Alaska Attorney General. Her selection of Ross was roundly rejected, and was Palin's biggest political debacle.

Tennessee DUI Lawyers & Laws
The Tennessee DUI Defense Center is your complete source regarding information about Tennessee DUI laws, Tennessee DUI lawyers and attorneys, penalties for driving under the influence in Tennessee, driver's license revocations, field sobriety tests in Tennessee, the criminal court process, Tennessee SR22 insurance after a DUI arrest, restricted license information and other necessary need to know information regarding a DUI arrest in the state of Tennessee.
The consequences and penalties a person faces for a Tennessee DUI offense are getting tougher every year. Even if you are facing a misdemeanor DUI charge, do not think for a minute that just because it is a misdemeanor charge that you can represent yourself in court without hiring an experienced Tennessee DUI lawyer to represent you and have the charges against you dismissed or even reduced.
It is important to understand that if a person is convicted of a DUI offense in the state of Tennessee, that DUI conviction will remain on that person's criminal record for life. What this means is that you will not be eligible to have the DUI conviction expunged from your criminal record. Tennessee law only allows a DUI conviction to be expunged from a person's criminal record if the charges against that person were dismissed, you were found not guilty or received a deferred disposition.
The impact of having a Tennessee DUI conviction on your criminal record can cause future problems such as when applying for a job where the prospective employer conducts a Tennessee background check on applicants before hiring or offering the job. The number of employers who conduct a background check on a potential employee before hiring that individual is on the rise and will continue to rise.
Also if an employment application asks if you have ever been convicted of a crime, you must disclose the DUI conviction on the application because this is a sign that the prospective employer is going to conduct a Tennessee background check on any potential employees before hiring.
Do I need to hire a lawyer to represent me in court?
You absolutely must hire a lawyer to represent you in court if you hope to have any chance of beating your Tennessee DUI charge, but you have to hire the right lawyer. The mistake that most people make in this situation is to grab the phone book and find an ad for a lawyer who says they represent clients arrested for DUI offenses and hire the lawyer based upon a large full page ad or the fact that the lawyer says that he or she represents clients facing a Tennessee DUI charge.
The unfortunate thing is that a lot of people facing a DUI charge in Tennessee will base their decision to hire a lawyer based upon the above scenarios and fail to properly research the lawyer before hiring the lawyer to represent them in court, not knowing that the lawyer may have never tried a DUI case or is just planning on walking the client through the system and pleading guilty to the charge and not advising the client of the potential life altering affects of pleading guilty to a driving under the influence charge in Tennessee and that a conviction will remain on their criminal record for life.
Do not make the mistake of waiting until after your arraignment hearing to hire a Tennessee DUI attorney. Waiting to hire a lawyer can mean that valuable evidence that is critical to your Tennessee DUI defense case can be lost. It is also very important that your DUI lawyer be present at the arraignment hearing to ensure that he or she is going to be available for your scheduled court date.
Contact one of our experienced Tennessee DUI lawyers today by filling out the short contact form on the following page. The initial consultation is free and there is no obligation, not to mention you are going to learn some valuable information.
The Tennessee DUI lawyers in our network are all experienced DUI lawyers and represent clients throughout the State of Tennessee including Nashville, Memphis, Knoxville, Chattanooga, Clarksville, Murfreesboro and every city and region in between. Contact us today to speak with one of our Tennessee DUI attorneys.

City of Fullerton and City Manager Received Innovation Awards
Contact :
Fullerton City Manager's Office (714) 738-6317
Fullerton, Ca – The city of Fullerton, along with their City Manager, Joe Felz, were honored at the third annual Golden Hub of Innovation Awards hosted by the Association of California Cities, Orange County (ACC-OC) on June 26. The event recognized innovation in local government. Councilwoman Jennifer Fitzgerald along with City of Fullerton staff attended the ceremony at the Discovery Science Center in Santa Ana.
The City of Fullerton received an Honorable Mention Award in the Energy and Environmental Quality category for its cost-saving and innovative establishment of a CNG Fueling station at the corner of Basque and Commonwealth Avenues.
The City of Fullerton's EcoFuel CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) fueling facility started as a way to provide the city's vehicle fleet with a domestically produced, clean, and inexpensive fuel. During the design process, the city identified a local need for a convenient CNG fueling location for the public to utilize. Hence, combining a consumer friendly publically accessible fueling location into the city's original clean air fueling strategy made the most sense. The project has turned into a close partnership with the Mobile Source Air Reduction Review Committee, the United States Department of Energy, other local agencies, and the North Orange County community to utilize one of the cleanest burning fuels that is readily available.
Since EcoFuel CNG opened to the public, the CNG fueling facility has become an important part of the community for clean burning fuel. There are nearly 100 visits per day from resident, commuter, utility company, school bus, trucking company, and taxis service vehicles utilizing the facility. Each natural gas fuel-up represents greater energy security for the United States, lower emissions, and lower operating costs when compared to conventional fueled vehicles. The impacts of these benefits are not only seen nationally, but also on a local level for the community.
One of the highlights of the evening was the announcement that Fullerton City Manager, Joe Felz, was awarded the ACC-OC's "Innovator of the Year Award" in recognition of the City's many innovative programs and contributions. Felz, Fullerton's City Manager since May 2011, has served in a variety of roles in the city of Fullerton for the past 30 years.
In addition to starting many popular city-wide events such as the outdoor Fullerton Market, the "First Night Fullerton" New Year's Eve celebration, and the annual July 4 "Community Fireworks Show and Festival," Felz also worked closely with the Fullerton business community on revitalization efforts in the downtown Fullerton district
The "Innovator of the Year Award," recognized Mr. Felz' tenure as City Manager, and recognized his successes in balancing the City's finances, overseeing the dissolution of the former Redevelopment Agency, and refocusing efforts to address needed infrastructure improvements. It also recognized Felz for developing several new partnerships and initiatives to create more efficiencies in local government, including the successful merger of the Fire Department Command staff of the Brea and Fullerton Fire Departments. Recently, Felz led the effort toward the formation of a citywide economic development program.
Started in 2011, The Golden Hub Awards, recognizes cities and agencies whose programs save taxpayers money, reduce expenses, and improve management and operations. For photos from the event, please go to: http://www.accoc.org/3rd-annual-golden-hub-of-innovation-awards/

02 Nov 2012
THE IASB plans to create a new 12-member advisory group of national standards setters and regional bodies.
The advisory group, to be known as the Accounting Standards Advisory Forum (ASAF), is intended to provide the IASB with technical advice and will formalise its relationship with the standard-setting community.
Further reading
The IASB currently works through a series of bilateral agreements or other more informal arrangements, which are now insufficient with so many countries using IFRS.
"The answer is to establish a multilateral forum where representatives of the standard-setting community can come together with the IASB, to discuss our work as well as other topics related to establishing IFRSs as global accounting standards," said Hans Hoogervorst, chairman of the IASB.
Under the proposals laid out by the IASB, the board will be made up by three representatives each from Europe, the Americas and Asia-Oceania, with Africa and the rest of the world getting an additional one seat each.
All participants in the ASAF would be expected to sign a memorandum of understanding making a commitment to a global single set of accounting standards, the IASB said.
The board would meet four times a year with the IASB in London and each meeting would be for 1.5 days.
Crucially, the ASAF would be chaired by the IASB.
A public consultation document is open for comment until 17 December 2012.

Yankee Candles autumn/fall limited edition fragrance Witches Brew is the perfect fragrance for Halloween; the fragrance conjures up the image of a freshly dug grave, with the perfume from nearby funeral wreaths and smoke from bonfires lingering in the air.
The fragrance is best described as smelling like damp soil, with a undertone that has a kind of organic spicy/sweetness to it. The spicy tang reminds me of cloves, or aniseed. I can't pinpoint the sweeter notes, but overall the results smell vaguely like cola to me. These above notes combine to create a darker incense note, with the smokiness of burnt wood underneath everything else.

Hi folks,
I've started a company to sell SpeedView Head up Displays (HUDs). These little gadgets project your speed onto the windscreen so that you can see your speed and see where you're going at the same time.
[b]I'm looking for two volunteers for each model[/b] (gurus) to give it a whirl on each generation of Mondeo, in exchange for getting it [b]really, really, cheap - £40 for a Head up Display.[/b]
Dead handy if you've fitted a mario-kart sized steering wheel like I have on my MX5 (sorry), stopping 9 points turning into 12, or to get a speedo that reads [b]spot on[/b]. (you can re-calibrate it easily) You know you want one: bling and something to fiddle with on Boxing Day... ;-)
Quick video:
Here's the deal:
I have the "normal" instructions here:
I would like a "how to" for each vehicle - something like this:
I'll sell you a unit for £60 including post (£10 off RRP), then refund you another £20 when you upload the "how to" to the forum.
You'll need to find three wires. Earth, ignition live, vehicle speed signal (VSS). Earth and ignition live are easy enough. Easiest place to get vehicle speed signal is usually behind the radio (if it adjusts its volume with the speedo) or instrument panel. I don't have the wiring diagram for any Mondeos so you'll have to know how to find those - but otherwise installation is pretty straightforward. Even if the speedo is mechanical there's a work-around for that too.
Anybody interested in being the first, or just have questions? You can catch me in here, by PM, or on firstname.lastname@example.com Last but by no means least - many thanks to Steve for supporting new businesses; admin really is a credit to the OC!

Americans Are Drinking More Wine Than the French!
When you think of wine cultures, you probably think of Italians, the Spanish and of course the French. But, while wine has become more mainstream in the US, you rarely think of Americans.
That's about to change, however, as US wine sales have seriously rebounded from the recession, and have surpassed French wine sales for the first time.
According to The Chicago Tribune, domestic wine sales rose 7 percent in 2010 from the year before, and California wine producers saw retail sales grow 1 percent from 2009 to 2010. The US even consumed more wine than France—although the French consumed more per capita, but the US just has a much larger population.
I'm a big fan of wine, and I've definitely noticed that family and friends who never drank it before have started educating themselves and enjoying the occasional bottle. Hey, even Costco sells wine now, and pretty good wine at that!
What about you, have you started drinking more vino? To learn more about enjoying wine, read our "Cooking 101: A Guide to Wine" and taking or quiz "Put Your Wine Pairing Skills to the Test."

To understand all the info above, check out our Site Facts Glossary.
Grades have no direct impact on the overall score.
Stag Homme Studios features a collection of this studio's hardcore videos and DVDs. It is gay guy/guy and groupsex hardcore with fit and buff pornstar men. As the DVD boxes state Stag Homme is part of Raging Stallion which is definitely a huge name in the gay porn biz. Guests can get a good sampling of the scenes, DVDs, and models from the samples shown on the guest tour.
Stag Homme Studio DVD Hardcore, Buff Pornstar Men. Stag Homme is associated with Raging Stallion so that's some good quick background on this company. Content here is all about downloadable scenes from DVDs and standalone videos with hardcore guy/guy and group scenes. It's well produced and the guys are ripped pros. Some of the DVD content is from movies like Cum In My Face, Handsome Devilds, Madrid Bulls, Stag Candy, and others. There is content from around twenty DVDs and then also standalone scenes called XXX Features and XXX Series.
Other Good Stuff:
Limited Download Options, Some Stream-Only Older Videos. The video options features just one format option for downloading with WMV in one quality level. These are fewer choices than we're used to seeing nowadays with other paysites that have an array of formats, quality levels, mobile files, etc. Older videos from the first years or so are still only in streaming without downloadable files.
Smallish Collection for a Long-Running Studio Site. The total number of video scenes here is just over one hundred fifty at the time of this review. That's okay but for a studio site that's been around for more than five years I expected a larger archive. Particular the DVD section has scenes from around just twenty movies which seems low. That section is kind of slow to get updates with most videos that are added being more Features or Series instead of from the DVD section.
Minor Negatives:
Harcore gay Stag Homme Studio videos that could use a bit more growth.
Individual studio collections are fun sites especially if you're into the titles and style of a particular production company. Stag Homme has entertaining hardcore gay content with pro guys which makes for a good site foundation. Still a larger collection or some bonus sites would help boost the amount of content available to members. Updates are a bit slow these days especially in the DVD section which should be a centerpiece of the site. To me the site has a lot of potential that hasn't been realized as of yet.

The mattress has two adjustable heights, higher up to be able to reach and bend over to kiss your little one goodnight and lower for when your little one starts pulling up! I also love that it can convert to a nice toddler bed when baby gets older.

VATICAN LETTER Nov-20-2009 (760 words) Backgrounder. With photos. xxxi
Glass half full: Anglican leader, Vatican official assess ecumenism
Archbishop Rowan Williams of Canterbury, England, head of the Anglican Communion, holds up a glass of water to make his point while giving a speech on ecumenism at the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome Nov. 19. (CNS/Paul Haring)
By Cindy Wooden
Catholic News Service
VATICAN CITY (CNS) -- Archbishop Rowan Williams of Canterbury, spiritual leader of the Anglican Communion, said the ecumenical situation really is that of a "glass half full," and he held his water glass up to emphasize the point.
In the wake of Pope Benedict XVI's special provisions for Anglicans who want to leave Archbishop Williams' flock and join the Roman Catholic Church, his assessment of Catholic-Anglican relations seemed to surprise some people in the audience when he spoke in Rome Nov. 19.
But people seemed less surprised when his remarks about what the next steps in ecumenical dialogue should be included several blunt challenges to the Catholic leadership and its theologians.
Anglicans and Roman Catholics -- indeed, all Christians engaged in ecumenical dialogue over the last 40 years -- really need to ask themselves if the doctrines and practices still dividing them are anywhere near as important as the essential dogmas they share, he said the evening before beginning a series of meetings with Vatican officials and with Pope Benedict.
Among other issues, the archbishop and Vatican officials were expected to make final preparations for the third round of the formal Anglican-Roman Catholic International Commission, the official group for theological dialogue.
"When so very much agreement has been firmly established in first-order matters about the identity and mission of the church, is it really justifiable to treat other issues as equally vital for its health and integrity?" the archbishop asked.
Archbishop Williams challenged the Vatican's view that the ordination of women as priests and bishops in some provinces of the Anglican Communion marked a definitive barrier to any form of Catholic-Anglican unity.
If, as the churches have agreed in their ecumenical dialogues, individuals are ordained to serve the church, to promote holiness and to reconcile believers with God and with one another, "how much is that undermined if individuals within the ministerial communion are of different genders?" he asked.
Pope John Paul II declared that the Catholic Church has no authority to ordain women because Jesus chose only men as his apostles.
Archbishop Williams said he did not want to review all the arguments for and against ordaining women, but he said that "for many Anglicans, not ordaining women has a possible unwelcome implication about the difference between baptized men and baptized women," a difference that is not made in any creed or fundamental statement of Christian faith.
The Anglican leader said the disagreements within the Anglican Communion over ordaining women obviously have caused internal tensions, but Anglicans still are seeking ways to preserve their unity without forcing those who have opposing views out of the communion.
"And if it can be managed within the Anglican family, is this a possible model for the wider ecumenical scene?" he asked.
Archbishop Williams said he did not believe questions surrounding ordination and differences in church decision-making structures were unimportant or purely political, but he did question whether they were "as fundamentally church-dividing as our Roman Catholic friends generally assume and maintain."
Those responsible for ecumenical dialogue and the life of the Christian churches must ask themselves if remaining differences regarding ministry and authority in the church "have the same weight" as the agreements they already have reached on fundamentals of faith.
Cardinal Walter Kasper, president of the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity, also spoke Nov. 19 and affirmed the Catholic Church's commitment to continuing the search for full unity.
"Ecumenism has a future, not because we want it, but because Jesus Christ wants it and because his spirit helps us in our commitment," he said.
"The Catholic Church cannot simply stop and wait," he said. "It has a special responsibility. Its unique ecumenical responsibility comes, paradoxically, from the Petrine ministry (the ministry of the pope), which often is seen as the main obstacle for unity, but which understands itself as a ministry of unity."
As for the questions still dividing Catholic and Anglicans, including the ordination of women, Cardinal Kasper told reporters, "We have to distinguish between differences that are contradictory and differences that are complementary. Complementary differences can exist in the church."
In his speech, the cardinal said Pope Benedict has made it clear that because God is love, "love is the true motor of ecumenism."
"Love respects the freedom of the other and even respects them in their otherness," he said. "Love makes room for legitimate differences."
But in the end, Cardinal Kasper said, "love wants unity. This is why the final objective of ecumenism can only be the full communion of faith, sacraments, apostolic ministry and mission."

KFC Application Online – Apply for a Job at KFC
Download KFC Application form ( PDF )
Apply for Jobs at KFC online
How to Apply Online With KFC
Delicious chicken meals and side dishes have made KFC one of the most popular fast food restaurant companies in the world. The company's restaurants hold a unique place in the culture, plus they offer scrumptious menu items at affordable prices. Founded by Colonel Harland Sanders in the year 1952, the company has been feeding customers for 60 years. The Colonel, whose image adorns the company's advertising, actually developed his special recipe for fried chicken in 1930. Many restaurants have tried to copy the chicken recipe, but none have been able to come close to duplicating it. Thanks to such great-tasting food, KFC has become a global powerhouse with a presence in 110 countries and territories around the planet.
If you are looking for a new employment opportunity and you love the food industry, you should consider completing the KFC application for employment. The chain is always looking for new and talented employees to join its team, and you could be an ideal candidate for a job within one of the company's restaurants. If you are interested in filling out the KFC application, you can use one of two methods to do so.
Because it offers numerous advantages, the recommended way to apply for a job with KFC is to visit one of the company's locations to apply in person. Simply visit the restaurant closest to you and ask for an application from one of the helpful employees. If a manager is present, it is advised that you speak with him or her, as well, in order to learn about the available employment opportunities. Speaking with management also familiarizes you with the person who may hire you later. If you can, you should try to complete the application while you are on site. This way, you can ensure that management has a chance to review your application immediately.
Some people are just too busy to visit a KFC in order to apply for a job. If you are one of these people, you can still apply for a job with the company as long as you have internet access. In order to fill out the KFC application online, you can simply visit the website jobswithkfc.com. Once you are on the site, you can click on the link that says Apply Now. Follow the appropriate links and you will be taken to a page on which the application for employment is displayed. You will have plenty of time to complete the application, so be sure to be as honest and thorough as possible. Once you submit the application online, it will be forwarded to management for review. If your application impresses management, you could be scheduled for an interview within two weeks.
Minimum Age to Work at Kentucky Fried Chicken: 16 years old
Kentucky Fried Chicken Hours of Operation: Mon-Sat: 10:00am-9:00pm; Sun: 11:00am-6:00pm
Job Positions & Income Information
KFC, which is also known as Kentucky Fried Chicken, operates over 5,200 restaurant locations in the United States alone, with an additional 15,000 restaurants located in other parts of the world. Since the company is so large, it employs an enormous number of people. However, since the industry is known for a great amount of employee turnover, more workers are needed at all times to staff the company's various locations.
Each KFC restaurant employs a number of people in a variety of positions. Though there are numerous job titles at the restaurant-level, there are three basic classifications of employment. Most job positions are at the entry-level, but skilled workers can take on greater responsibility and compensation by demonstrating a good work ethic and indicating prior experience. This being the case, you should make sure that you list all relevant experience on your KFC application.
The first classification of employment at KFC is the Team Member. These workers are entry-level employees who typically work behind the counter. Team Members are responsible for taking orders, answering customer questions, informing customers of promotions and preparing food items. Additionally, these workers may be charged with other responsibilities such as cleaning and performing other tasks assigned by management. Team Members must be at least 16 years of age in order to be eligible for the job, and they usually start making the minimum wage.
Cooks at KFC are hired exclusively to work behind the scenes in the kitchen. These workers do not usually need special training, but previous experience certainly helps. Cooks are responsible for preparing food items and making sure they are ready in a timely fashion. Wages paid to KFC cooks can vary widely, but cooks typically earn a starting rate of pay between minimum wage and $10.00 per hour.
Managers comprise the third class of employment at KFC restaurants. There are many different types of managers at the restaurant-level and their job titles can include Shift Supervisor, Assistant Manager and General Manager. These workers must ensure that operations run smoothly, and they must be able to motivate the workers under their supervision. Managers are also responsible for hiring and scheduling employees, plus they determine rates of pay for employees at the restaurant-level. Depending on job title, experience and location, Shift Supervisors can earn an hourly wage between $10.00 and $12.00. Assistant and General Managers are salaried, and they earn a starting wage of between $25,000 and $60,000 annually.
KFC Benefits
Working at KFC is incredibly rewarding for all employees. New workers are eligible for benefits like paid training, flexible scheduling and competitive compensation. Long-term KFC workers can become eligible for more valuable benefits such as health insurance, paid vacation time and food discounts. Other perks like gym membership discounts and retirement plans are also available to some employees.

About KFC Company
If you made a positive impression with your KFC application, you could be scheduled for an interview. While interviewing, you may be asked some questions about the company. You do not want to be left without an answer, so you should take some time to learn a few KFC facts. First, you should know that the restaurant chain was founded by Colonel Harland Sanders in 1952. The first franchise location was in South Salt Lake, Utah. Finally, you ought to remember that KFC uses a secret recipe containing 11 herbs and spices. Remember these facts and do some additional research, and you will make a lasting positive impression during your interview with management.

Happiness is Not for You
Have you searched for and grasped at happiness and found it fleeting and inconsistent? Are you tired of the effort, disappointment and frustration? Perhaps you've already come to the same conclusion I have, that happiness is just not for you, that, indeed, it was never meant for you. Now, before you jump to conclusions here, keep reading to see what I mean.
The Happy Life of a Blogger (7 ways blogging can improve your happiness)
Perhaps you've wondered how blogging has affected the lives of bloggers. There are, of course, 6 and 7-figure income bloggers. There are world-traveling bloggers. Blogging has brought notoriety and book-signing deals and public stages for many. But for me, the most obvious reward has been a boost to my personal happiness.

22 Reasons I'm Happy (this is my happiness story)
It's my birthday today and was going to post another installment of "Things you don't know about me" when I decided on a whim to share my personal happiness story with you instead. Here are 22 reasons I'm happy.
Today is Your Masterpiece!
Today is a blank canvas waiting for you to paint your personal masterpiece onto it. It is your unfinished Sistine Chapel, your David and Mona Lisa. This very day is waiting to be fashioned and formed into something beautiful, breathtaking and sublime.
Life is Messy (get used to it)
Instead of trying to cram the messy abundance of life into neat little packaged moments of perfection, learn to laugh at the unpredictable and smile at the inopportune.
Be Happy Anyway
People will disappoint you. Be happy anyway. Life will throw you off your plans. Be happy anyway. Others will lie and lead you astray. Be happy anyway.
Celebrating Life
Why do we wait for anniversaries to celebrate marriage? Why do we wait for birthdays to celebrate births? And why do we wait for funerals to celebrate life? Why wait for the day of the event or the end of a life to celebrate what we could be celebrating daily?
The Perfection of Imperfection
We are all different, doing different things, living different lives, coming to this point in time, right now as you read these words from different trajectories with different backgrounds and circumstances. So why do we think we all need to do the same things, look the same way, act like everyone else and live the same lives? The obvious answer is that we don't!

7 Reasons Happiness Matters
Does happiness truly matter? Does your happiness really make a difference? I contend it does. As a matter of fact, there is little in life more important than how happy you are. I would even add that happiness is the very object and design of your existence. This is not as far-fetched as you may think. See why.

Authorizations summary
NVIDIA TegraZone's authorizations showed no sign of abnormality.
Many people have often asked why the first Tegra chip they ever heard of was the Tegra 2 Chip. This fuels almost all of the first generation Android tablets and its successor, the Tegra 3, can be found in many present tablets, as well as in a few smartphones (like the HTC One X for example). The first Tegra chip (Tegra, respectively Tegra 1) could only be found in one highly distributed device: the Zune HD, Microsoft's unsuccessful iPod Touch alternative from 2009. I was a Zune HD owner and at the time was really impressed by the Tegra platform, even though the beginning didn't seem too bright for Nvidia. At the moment, my slightly outdated Galaxy Tab 10.1 is running on the Tegra 2 chip, after all, it was the first dual-core processor available for tablets.
Even with the introduction, what exactly is NVIDIA TegraZone? Basically, it offers an alternative app store. Many games (like Shadowgun or Riptide GP for example) are Tegra-optimized and offer for the most part much better graphics, mostly in the form of special effects. In the Google Play store, you'll recognize these games mainly under the name-affix ''THD''. All the same, it can get tedious always having to search for optimized apps. The NVIDIA TegraZone groups together all games and apps that have been optimized for the Tegra chip. In order to make it easier for clients, the app's shortcut will direct them to the respective counterpart in the Google Play store. It isn't necessary to buy it directly from the NVIDIA TegraZone. The app is divided into three categories:
- Spotlight: here you'll find an overview of the most popular games and apps, as well as news regarding Nvidia and the Tegra platform and respectively the apps belonging to it.
- Games: all apps are gathered here, even if they're not games, which is a little confusing at first. Getting acquainted with the categories will help you find what you're looking for. Evidently, there's also a search function.
- News: as mentioned above in the ''spotlight'' category, here you'll have news and info.
It becomes quickly evident that NVIDIA TegraZone is distinctively optimized for games. This isn't only because the advocated apps are mostly games, but also because it shows which ones can be played with a controller, which is a very useful function! In the NVIDIA TegraZone the apps won't hold the ratings that they've received in the Play Store. TegraZone has its very own evaluation system. That may seem unnecessary at first glance, but actually makes sense for the reason that Tegra-optimized apps in the Play Store often receive negative comments from users who can't install the respective apps (because their device doesn't have a Tegra chip). These irrelevant comments won't appear within TegraZone.
Bottom Line
NVIDIA TegraZone is practically a must-have app for users with a Tegra device. Here, you'll often find optimized apps more quickly. A positive aspect is the TegraZone installation refers the user back to the Play Store. An alternative paying option like in AndroidPIT App Center is unfortunately not available. You'll find a complete list of Tegra-supported devices on the Nvidia Homepage.
Screen & Controls
NVIDIA TegraZone's design closely follows the Nvidia style: green, black and white. The app was well designed and its controls are impeccable. One thing that they could have done: add a search function in the the top functions bar, which would permit the user to quickly access each category within the app. The app is also optimized for tablets and offers another layout for landscape mode.
Speed & Stability
NVIDIA TegraZone worked well during the test. There were no crashes or other problems. Everything was in working order, even with my slightly older Galaxy Tab 10.1.
Price/Performance Ratio
NVIDIA TegraZone is free in the AndroidPIT App Center, as well as in the Google Play store.

Gene study shows how sheep first separated from goats
Scientists have cracked the genetic code of sheep to reveal how they became a distinct species from goats about four million years ago.
The study is the first to pinpoint the genetic differences which make sheep different from other animals. The findings could aid the development of DNA testing to speed-up selective breeding programmes, helping farmers to improve their stocks.
The research identifies the genes which give sheep their fleece and uncovers features of their digestive system, which makes them so well suited to a diet of low quality grass and other plants.
It also builds the most complete picture yet of the complex biology of sheep. Further studies using this resource could reveal new insights to diseases which affect sheep.
Researchers from the University of Edinburgh's Roslin Institute, which receives strategic funding from the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council, were part of a global team which has decoded the genome sequence - the entire genetic make-up – of domestic sheep for the first time.
This team – the International Sheep Genomics Consortium – compared sheep genes with those of other animals, including humans, cattle, goats and pigs.
The analysis identifies several genes associated with wool production. It also reveals genes which underpin the evolution of the rumen – a specialised chamber of the stomach which breaks down plant material to make it ready for digestion.
Prof Alan Archibald, head of genetics and genomics at The Roslin Institute, says: "Sheep were one of the first animals to be domesticated for farming and are still an important part of the global agricultural economy. Understanding more about their genetic make-up will help us to breed healthier and more productive flocks."

Theological riches of Proverbs
Posted: May 16, 2011 Filed under: Old Testament, Proverbs, Theology | Tags: lifestyle, Proverbs Leave a commentI propose that the book of Proverbs as a whole is a poetically theological rich book that calls for us to not only be hearers of the word; rather to be appliers of the word. There is a call within the pages to learn from and apply to our lives that which we learn; therefore its contents while not seemingly overtly theological – indeed are deeply theological, for theology is the study of God and his ways and we are called to live a life that reflects his ways.
Is Job an allegory of the exilic experience.
Posted: May 10, 2011 Filed under: Job, Old Testament, Wisdom Literature | Tags: Is Job an allegory? 3 CommentsIn listening to an audio recording of Job yesterday – I noted the exilic language that was used. The ending of Job is very similar to that of what is said in Proverbs and Ecclesiastes… "Fear God"
We read God rebuking Job's friends for speaking wrongly of him. This follows the same theme of Proverbs and Ecclesiastes. In Proverbs we see Lady Wisdom as being shown as the purist and highest way of living… submerged within the book are references to Torah – (which for the Israelites stands as God's wisdom) – and rebukes the current wisdom of the day.
Ecclesiastes follows the same – rebukes the then current wisdom of the day and exhorts the son (same theme in Proverbs)to fear God.
Within this context – we then see that the wisdom of Job's friends is shown to be false and that there is a clear mention of Torah – Genesis in the ending of Job… "in the beginning I am created!"
Could it be that Job in repenting in dust and ashes for seeing God as he truly is – is a picture of the Hebrew people repenting before God as a nation – And that God blessing him once again seven fold is a reference to them being put into exile for 70 years and their subsequent endeavours to re-build the nation into a mighty empire once again?
Just a few more…

Over time, I would like to collect more 'Wisdom' books. Particularly Job, Ecclesiastes and Proverbs. I have a theory that I am working on regarding Proverbs and believe that the current research on Ecclesiastes has given a key and the basis of a foundation to follow it through.
Does your faith have room for doubt and pessimism?
Posted: March 23, 2011 Filed under: Old Testament, wisdom, Wisdom Literature | Tags: doubt, Faith, Life Questions, lifestyle 2 CommentsThis is a copy of a post; which I wrote for Unsettled Christianity.
I am currently studying Wisdom Literature – Proverbs, Psalms, Job, Song of Songs, Ecclesiastes and even Sirach and been loving it. We often do these books and therefore the information within a disservice when we try and read bits from them here and there. In reality to grasp hold of the wisdom that it offers, we need to read them as a whole.
Not only do we need to read them; we need to live it out. For the Wisdom books teach us that the information revealed within them is God's ways worked out in and through life…and to keep and live a balanced life we need to read the books together.
With the Song of Songs we learn the language of love. Psalms teach us about relationship and how to pray. Job, Ecclesiastes and Proverbs teach us how to live… Proverbs that rightful living should produce certain blessings…Job though counteracts this by saying…"Crap happens" and Ecclesiastes provides the frame work, and balances this out for us to have and express our doubts and pessimism about life; while maintaining an integrity in the way we live.
There is a story in every name.
Posted: March 19, 2011 Filed under: Chronicles, Old Testament, Unsettled Christianity | Tags: narrative story, Understanding Genealogies Leave a commentI made the following comment to Jeremy who made the observation that the list of names in Chronicles is just a long list of names…
We might think of them just as names Jeremy; but to the Jewish people each one of those names represented a story in and of themselves.
I don't think the genealogies are meant to be rushed through as being boring lists – rather they are meant to be read in a reflective way about the stories of each and in doing so it builds up to a climax of belonging.
Week 2 reflections on Proverbs 1- 4 & Dell and Murphy's readings.
Posted: March 13, 2011 Filed under: Old Testament, Proverbs, Wisdom Literature | Tags: assignments, weekly reflection, wisdom Leave a commentOne of the striking things that appeared to me in reading chapters 1-4 is how the themes of the 10 Commandments – fear God, honour your parents, don't kill, steal, covet, commit adultery (both spiritual and physical), don't bear false witness etc., are all covered within the guidance given within these proverbs.
Dell presents an Exilic / Post Exilic date for the writing of Proverbs; while maintaining the tension an oral authorship from a much earlier time frame – though doubts the authorship coming from King Solomon himself. He speaks of the various ways in which the book of Proverbs was taught; and my favourite being that it could be linked to the School of prophets in Kings. – My reasoning for this is that the prophets had a keen sense of being able to tell a story and weave the story within their prophecies. Such as Nathan; whose message convicted David of adultery through his telling a story of a stolen lamb which was killed!
I need to think through the idea of an Egyptian influence on the methodology of Proverbs. Surely this would either link Proverbs to Solomon who had much diplomatic ties with Egypt; or even an earlier date – such as 40 years wilderness experience in the desert, where the older generation instructed the younger…admittedly this latter thought has little to support it within the actual book of Proverbs- take "Wisdom calling out in the market place…" what market place was in the desert.
While Murphy's doesn't directly support my hypothesis regarding the 10 commandments; the reading does support it. Both Wisdom and the Law are referred to as being a gift of God. The reading makes the connection of the woman in Chap 2:16 and Chap 5-7 as possibly referring to idolatry and not physical adultery. If so – again this has connotations of prophetic warnings…and supports the idea of the proverbs being first taught within the school of prophets.
Finally Murphy's concluding reflections on 1:1-6 in regards to them shaping a theological reflection on life / salvation within a Jewish context – is a reminder to the reader that Wisdom is a gift from God and in doing so again reinforces my idea in that the basis for the proverbs is the outworking of the 10 Commandments in day to day life.
What's the point! Is life meaningless?
Posted: March 9, 2011 Filed under: Ecclesiastes 1:1-11, Old Testament, Wisdom Literature | Tags: Life Questions, purpose, wisdom Leave a commentI have chosen Ecclesiastes 1:1-11 as the passage to exegete as part of my current studies and these are a few of my rambling thoughts on the passage.
2 "Meaningless! Meaningless!"
says the Teacher.
"Utterly meaningless!
Everything is meaningless."
You can imagine this speaker throwing his hands into the air, perhaps throwing something, or even replacing the words Meaningless with a few well chosen cuss words. Perhaps you can sympathise with these words as you think of times you have uttered the same intent; even if not the exact words…of What is the point!
The author continues
3 What do people gain from all their labors
at which they toil under the sun?
4 Generations come and generations go,
but the earth remains forever.
What is the point of working hard. What am I really gaining from it. What is the real meaning of life. These are deep questions to ponder. In effect he is reflecting on what is his purpose in life in the here and now. He reflects on the fact of the many generations behind him and in looking at the future generations ahead of him; perhaps he is thinking of his small place on earth in comparison… and in the same way perhaps the song Monday Monday is coming to your mind when you think of your own responsibilities.
5 The sun rises and the sun sets,
and hurries back to where it rises.
6 The wind blows to the south
and turns to the north;
round and round it goes,
ever returning on its course.
7 All streams flow into the sea,
yet the sea is never full.
To the place the streams come from,
there they return again.
He reflects on how the sun continues to rise and set and rise and set in a continual circular motion. How the wind continues to blow to the south and comes from the north and never ceases. How the rivers and streams continually flow towards the oceans and yet they are never full…they are never satisfied and yet the streams continue to flow and flow and flow. Its a reminder to him of his own toil and labour that seems never to cease. No matter what he does, no matter how much he will do; there will be work to be done tomorrow and the next day and the day after that and he seems to be asking what will really satisfy me in life?
8 All things are wearisome,
more than one can say.
The eye never has enough of seeing,
nor the ear its fill of hearing.
9 What has been will be again,
what has been done will be done again;
there is nothing new under the sun.
You can hear the despair within this cry. Perhaps he is bored. Perhaps he is sick of the routine of life and needs a holiday of some description. He is sick of what he see's. Tired of hearing the same old, same old and thinks that tomorrow will bring the same. And despairs of the possibility that this is his lot in life and nothing will ever change.
10 Is there anything of which one can say,
"Look! This is something new"?
It was here already, long ago;
it was here before our time.
11 No one remembers the former generations,
and even those yet to come
will not be remembered
by those who follow them.
He has a longing in his heart for something new; for something different. But deep within he believes there is nothing new, because what exists today exists because it was here yesterday. And so his routine continues as he routinely does what ever it is he does. You can imagine his sigh… as he thinks about the former generations who toiled before him and he sighs even deeper as he ponders his lot in life and asks himself the question… will what I have done and who I am, be remembered in the future, when I am gone?
Perhaps you too, have asked yourself these questions? I know I have!

"Maza Law" is a card game that has as goal creating a grammatically correct phrase made of 7 cards.
How to play?
Shuffle the cards, distribute 6 cards to each player. The oldest player starts the game and the role continues clockwise.
Each player on his turn draws a card from the deck and:
1- places a card in front of him on the table and starts formulating his phrase.
2- places an 'attack' card on another player's phrase.
3- or disposes a card of his in the box
Each player should have 6 cards in his hands throughout the game.
Word cards:
date, subject, verb, compliment, location, time of day, and period.
Attack Cards:
Each player has the right to attack other players by throwing this kind of cards on him/her
Militia pit stop: the opponent cannot continue his phrase if he has this card on his phrase. He needs the remove it by the 'withdrawal' card.
Electricity OFF: the opponent needs a 'gas lamp' to remove this barrier
Censorship: it deletes a card from the opponents phrase
Assassination: it deletes the 'subject' card of the opponent's phrase.
Explosion: it deletes the subject card or the location card of the opponent's phrase.
The first player who completes his phrase made of 7 cards wins the game.
The cards of the game are croppings from newspapers that were issued during the Lebanese Civil War [1975-1990]. The locations chosen are landmarks in the history of the civil war, and the subjects are eminent politicians of that period.
The randomness of this game yields phrases that can be shocking and ironic to the actual happenings of this war.
All in all it is a commentary on the lack of objectivity in telling the happenings of this sad event, and highlights the impossibility of having an official history written on it. It takes pieces of the history from the newspapers, and recreates a new history that is not true, but can sound factual, since there is no reference agreed by everyone.
After play testing this game, I took several phrases and placed them on newspaper articles, printed them and pasted them on Beirut walls.

We have a really bad news for the Asus Eee PC 1015BX users. It would not be possible to upgrade their RAM to 4GB as the Asus has been selling it with RAM soldered on. This sucks for the ones that were planning to upgrade the RAM to 4GB.
Fortunately, the unit comes soldered with 2GB RAM which is more than enough for running Windows 7 Home Premium smoothly. When we reviewed Asus 1215b with AMD C50 (which is basically an AMD C60 but with a fixed clocked speed of 1GHz), we felt no need to upgrade the RAM to 4GB.
Specs of the Asus 1015BX model being sold – 10.1 inch display, AMD C60 processor, ATi Radeon HD 6290, 500GB hard disk, 2GB RAM and Windows 7 home premium operating system. [via blogee forum]
Acer has been selling AMD C60 netbooks with replaceable RAM from quite sometime.
