PhraseExpress v10 Network Edition - ManualEnterprise Deployment of the Clients Changing the phrase file location Location of the Server configuration files Document Conventions
This symbol indicates a useful hint This symbol indicates very important notes that should be read carefully. IntroductionThe standard PhraseExpress clients usually load local phrase files which are used independently. While multiple PhraseExpress clients can also access the same phrase file and even synchronize phrases with an online cloud service among team users via the internet, synchronization issues may occur if multiple users alter the phrase file simultaneously. The PhraseExpress Server of the Network Edition solves this problem with a professional client-/server architecture to prevent synchronization conflicts. Benefits of the PhraseExpress Server
Client/Server ArchitectureThe PhraseExpress Network Edition is a Client-/Server application and consists of three different programs: Explanation
Installation ProcedureThe Network Edition is installed in following easy steps:
If you have purchased PhraseExpress licenses, please proceed with chapter "Register PhraseExpress". If you have not yet purchased licenses, the PhraseExpress Server runs in demo mode and allows you to try the software for 30 days after initial installation. You do not necessarily need to run the Client Manager in order to use PhraseExpress. The Client Manager is only required occasionally to configure the PhraseExpress Server. Upgrade from a previous installationWe recommend upgrading any existing PhraseExpress Network Edition installation with following steps:
Installations of the ClientsStep-by-step installation instructions for the Client can be found in the PhraseExpress Client manual at /docs10/09/manual.htm Important notes
Enterprise Deployment of the PhraseExpress ClientsTo deploy PhraseExpress in an enterprise network, you can either use the MSI installer, or you can setup a reference installation, configure the settings as required, and distribute the program folder /program files/phraseexpress/*.* plus the configuration file config.xml to all workstations. All settings you make as a particular user are stored in the file config.xml in your user(!) application data folder. The .xml file must be copied to the common(!) application data folder on the workstation computers. Upon first program launch, PhraseExpress will automatically copy the configuration file to the user's application data folder. PhraseExpress does not store any user settings in the Windows registry but in the config.xml file only. Load balancing with multiple PhraseExpress ServersIf you use the Network Edition with many users, you may want to consider installing multiple PhraseExpress Servers to distribute the server load to multiple instances. You may also want to consider using an SQL server. SQL servers are designed to server many hundreds clients. PhraseExpress supports connections to SQL Servers. Considerations when using multiple servers vs. a single server:
You can install as many servers as you like and freely divide your set of license keys to multiple servers. Just make sure not to double-use the same license key for multiple servers. By configuring different ports for each server you can define for each client to which server the client shall connect to. You may want to define the number of servers in a way that the network load is distributed equally. The network load is determined by the number of users and phrase file size. Server ConfigurationThe PhraseExpress server service is automatically launched with every launch of the PC hosting the service. The PhraseExpress Server service itself does not have a user interface and is running invisible in the background. The PhraseExpress Server is configured by the Client Manager only. Setting changes are sent to the server and applied by clicking the Update button. All clients will be temporarily disconnected for a very short time and automatically reconnect. While the clients are disconnected, they cannot make any changes to the phrase file. Fatal error messages are displayed in red colors in the Client Manager. It is not required to run the Server and the Client Manager on the same computer, but it is the safest setup and eliminates any risk of communication problems between the Server and the Client Manager. Server TabThe Server tab of the Client Manager allows you to define network communication settings: If the Client Manager is running on the same computer as the Server service then just keep the punctuation mark as the Server location. Otherwise enter the name of the computer on which the PhraseExpress Server is running. Define the TCP port that is used for the communication between the PhraseExpress Server and the clients. Only change this setting if the default TCP port is already occupied by another application in your network. Avoid using ports that are known to be used by other software (e.g. any port below 1025). You may need to configure the firewalls on all workstations when changing the TCP port. Phrase file tabIn the "phrase file" tab, you can choose the desired .pxp phrase file: The PhraseExpress Server uses the same phrase file format as the PhraseExpress Client and automatically uses the phrase file of an existing Client installation (if any). The phrase file is your main data file and contains all phrases, hotkeys, Autotexts, phrase folders, folder access rights settings. If you want to move you data you want to move this file to the new computer and load it from there. You can also use UNC network paths as the phrase file path. You just need to configure the PhraseExpress Server to be launched with the "Network Service" account. Video tutorial - PhraseExpress Server service configuration for use with UNC network paths. Important noteNever replace the current phrase file while the PhraseExpress Server service is running! The PhraseExpress Server service would not recognize such change and the new file would be overwritten by the previous file if any PhraseExpress Client makes any change in the phrases. Please do one of the following:
The server keeps a customizable number of backups of the phrase file in the folder /PhraseExpress backup, located in the same folder in which the main phrase file is kept. A new backup file is written every time any Client is making any change to the phrase file. You can also decide whether any change of the phrase file shall be instantly updated on all workstations. If disabled, phrase file changes will take effect upon the next launch of the PhraseExpress Client on the workstation. This option only takes effect on workstations with read-only rights to the phrase file. Clients with write access are always updated. Monitor tabIn the Monitor tab, all status information and connected workstations with their license key associations are displayed: The check boxes in the column "W" (for "write access") define whether a client is generally allowed to edit phrases. If unchecked, any option to add/remove/edit phrases is removed from the user interface of that client. The check boxes in the column "C" (for "configuration") define whether a client can make change program settings. If unchecked, any settings option is removed from the user interface of that client. You can change these settings for all clients in one go by (de)selecting the check box in the title row and applying this setting to all connected clients with the Set button. The check boxes in the title bar also define the initial settings for new clients connecting for the first time. Example: If you uncheck the "W" check box in the title bar, any new client will have no write access to the phrase file by default. If using ConcurrentUser licenses, the states of the access and configuration rights are not stored. Theses settings are tied to the license keys that float between multiple users if using ConcurrentUser licenses. You can hide/show individual columns by right-clicking the column title. You can completely disable the usage statistic function of the statistics by hiding both usage statistic related columns. However, this does not work in demo mode. Disconnected clients are displayed in grey and you can remove their license key association by right-clicking the desired entry if you wish to use the associated license for another user. If you try to remove write access from a user who is currently editing phrases, you will receive a warning message. Please avoid removing write access while a user is working on the phrase file as it may confuse the user. License keys tabIf you have purchased PhraseExpress licenses for use with the PhraseExpress Server, you would need to register the license keys in the Client Manager of the PhraseExpress Server installation.
An Internet connection is required during the short time of the license key validation. If the PC has no internet connection, please install the Client Manager (without the Server service!) on any other PC within your network that has network access to the PhraseExpress Server and access to the internet and validate the license keys from there. The license registration information is stored on the computer running the PhraseExpress Server. If you are using a Proxy Server, make sure to configure the proxy settings in the Client Manager as well. You can unregister license keys for use with another PhraseExpress Server installation at any time by removing the license keys from the Client Manager license key input field and pressing the button. Do not register the clients locally if you register your installation in the Client Manager of the PhraseExpress Server LicensingThe PhraseExpress Server associates a license key from the pool of available license keys to a user that connects to the server. A user is identified by the PhraseExpress Server by following variations:
You can configure the user identification in the License key tab of the Client Manager. This licensing system assures that PhraseExpress provides each user's personal phrases independent of the computer the user is logging on ('roaming profiles'). Licensing VariationsPhraseExpress is available in two licensing variations that you can choose during your purchase:
Addition licensing information
Blocking individual users from automatically taking a licenseYou can block individual users from being recognized by the Client Manager. Create a plain text file block.txt in the same folder where you can find the PhraseExpress Server configuration file config.ini Under Windows XP the path is C:\Documents and Settings\LocalService\Application Data\PhraseExpress Server If using Windows Vista the path is C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Roaming\PhraseExpress Server In text file, list all desired users (one per line!) corresponding to the licensing scheme, e.g. in the format or .Miscellaneous notes
Data backupPhraseExpress automatically creates backups of the phrase file each time any user is making any change to the phrase file. The backup files are located in the folder /PhraseExpress backup, located in the same folder as the main phrase file and has the file extension .bak. You can set the amount of backup file versions in the Client Manager. PhraseExpress automatically deletes the oldest backup file first. If you would like to discard accidental changes to your phrase file or if the original phrase file cannot be read anymore, please do the following:
The PhraseExpress Server will then deploy the phrase file to all PhraseExpress Clients. Important NoteFrequently backup your phrase file to different storage media to eliminate the slightest risk to lose your data in case of hard disk failure. Hard disks can break - And they do when you do not expect it! Location of the configuration filesThe PhraseExpress Server saves its configuration to following destinations:
The storage location of the PhraseExpress Client files on the workstations is described in chapter "Location of your personal data" of the Client's manual. Network CommunicationThe communication between the PhraseExpress Server and the PhraseExpress Client works as follows:
You can also manually enter the Server PC address if you wish to connect to a specific PhraseExpress Server: Select Settings » File » Connect to Server » Enter the Server PC's IP address. In such case, the PhraseExpress Client does not send UDP broadcast polls but always expect the PhraseExpress Server to be present at the provided IP address. Keeping PhraseExpress up-to-dateWe continuously improve PhraseExpress and you can keep the program up-to-date with the built-in Internet update check. To check manually for updates, connect your computer to the Internet and in the Client Manager select the tab Online Updates »Check now If a new version is available, stop the PhraseExpress Server Service and manually update all clients in the network. Then restart the PhraseExpress Server Service. PhraseExpress Clients must all have the same version number to avoid incompatibilities. The online update feature on the client installations is disabled while the clients are connected to the PhraseExpress Server. The reason is, that all clients must be updated in one go. Uninstall PhraseExpressPhraseExpress can be uninstalled with the default methods provided by Microsoft Windows. The phrase file is not deleted when uninstalling the PhraseExpress Server to avoid accidental data loss. You can manually delete the phrase file (including automatically created backups) if you do not need this data anymore. If you just wish to remove the PhraseExpress Server and want to continue using PhraseExpress stand-alone, please check this step-by-step video tutorial. Command-line parameters for Uninstallation file.The uninstaller program located in the PhraseExpress Server and Client program folder (unins??.exe) accepts optional command line parameters:

Krzyzewski: Okafor 'probably embarrassed' by his free-throw shooting
Jahlil Okafor has shouldered a major offensive burden in his two games since returning from a sprained ankle he suffered in a Feb. 18 win against North Carolina—with a career-high 30 points against Virginia Tech and a 13-point, 14-rebound performance Saturday against Syracuse.
The one place Okafor has not succeeded has been a thorn in his side the entire season—at the free-throw line.
The 6-foot-11 freshman missed his first six attempts from the charity stripe en route to a 1-for-7 performance Saturday night.
"You have to shoot free throws well, and he has not done that," head coach Mike Krzyzewski said. "We're going to want him to have the ball most of the time, but especially at the end of a game, and if people are just going to hack him he's going to have to make them pay the price for that."
Okafor is shooting just 54.2 percent from the foul line on the season and has attempted a team-high 155 free throws.
Historically one of the nation's better free-throw shooting teams, the Blue Devils are hitting just 68... Read more
Beyond the Arc: Duke basketball vs. Syracuse
No. 4 Duke used a staunch defensive effort to knock off Syracuse 73-54 Saturday night at Cameron Indoor Stadium. After letting Virginia Tech shoot almost 70 percent in the first half of Wednesday's game, the Blue Devils came out aggressive on the defensive end Saturday, holding the Orange to just 30.6 percent shooting en route to their ninth straight win:
Revisiting the three keys to the game:
- Figure out how to stop pick-and-rolls involving Jahlil Okafor: The Orange opted to go at Okafor in the post and the freshman responded with arguably his best defensive game of the season. The Chicago native forced Syracuse's Rakeem Christmas to struggle for much of the night and held him to just 11 points on 3-of-6 shooting from the floor. Okafor blocked shot on one of Christmas' drives to the basket was a welcome sign for the Blue Devils—who will need the freshman to defend well consistently to advance deep in postseason play... Read more
HALFTIME: Duke 34, Syracuse 25
In the final installment of the Duke-Syracuse rivalry this season, the No. 4 Blue Devils lead 34-25 at the half behind 15 points from freshman forward Justise Winslow at Cameron Indoor Stadium.
Duke shot 44 percent from the floor in the opening half, but Orange head coach Jim Boeheim's 2-3 zone still managed to keep the game close with nine forced turnovers. However, Winslow's ability to slash through the zone and find open shooters on the outside exposed a significant flaw in the Orange defense that will send Boeheim back to the drawing board during the break.
After a scoreless first minute, the Blue Devils blew the game open, taking a 4-0 lead in the opening minutes of the half before watching Syracuse go on a 9-2 run, thanks to seven early points from forward Tyler Roberson, who finished the half with nine points and six rebounds in 18 minutes.
Duke took a brief lead when Amile Jefferson provided a spark off the bench with a slam to give 10-9 lead, igniting the crowd, which was engaged for much of the tight first half of play... Read more
ESPN announces that Dick Vitale will again not call Duke-North Carolina
For the first time in more than 35 years, Dick Vitale did not call the Tobacco Road Rivalry Feb. 18. And despite the charismatic broadcaster's requests on social media, he will once again not be in the broadcast booth when Duke and North Carolina meet at the Dean E. Smith Center in Chapel Hill next Saturday.
According to several reports, ESPN announced via press release Saturday afternoon that Vitale will once again not be calling the storied rivalry, with play-by-play man Dan Shulman and analyst and former Blue Devil Jay Bilas getting the nod again. Shannon Spake will be the sideline reporter for the contest, which will also be the regular season finale for both teams... Read more
2015 commit Chase Jeter, 2016 SF prospect Jayson Tatum visit for Duke-Syracuse
They weren't able to make it to Durham for Duke-North Carolina, but Chase Jeter and Jayson Tatum should still be in for a treat Saturday night.
The highly touted duo will be at Cameron Indoor Stadium for No. 4 Duke's contest against Syracuse at 7 p.m. to witness one of the ACC's blooming young rivalries. The Blue Devils and Orange have played three hotly-contested games in their first three battles as conference foes.
Jeter is one of two Duke commits in the class of 2015 and is fresh off his fourth state championship and Tatum is the top small forward in the class of 2016 and is considering becoming a Blue Devil in the future.
The key three: Duke basketball vs. Syracuse
Duke is coming off a close overtime win against Virginia Tech and will need to perform at a much higher level to take down new rival Syracuse. Since the Orange entered the ACC last season, the Blue Devils have formed a new rivalry with Jim Boeheim's squad, creating three classics in a row. Here are three keys if Duke wants to extend its winning streak to nine games:
Figure out how to stop pick-and-rolls involving Jahlil Okafor
When the dominant freshman center turned his ankle against North Carolina Feb. 18, all of Cameron Indoor Stadium fell silent. The 6-foot-11 freshman missed Duke's next game against Clemson and wasn't missed considering the Blue Devils won that contest by 22 points. In Duke's next contest against Virginia Tech, Okafor put up a career-high 30 points, with his performance against the Hokies showing that a bad ankle can't limit his offensive prowess... Read more
X factor: Duke basketball vs. Syracuse
No. 4 Duke (25-3, 12-3 in the ACC) welcomes Syracuse (18-10, 9-6) to Cameron Indoor Stadium for the second time since its introduction to the ACC. The contest tips off Saturday at 7 p.m. with the Orange seeking revenge from its earlier season loss to the Blue Devils Feb. 14, as well as last season's loss in Cameron featuring head coach Jim Boeheim's ejection from the game. Before every game this season, the Blue Zone will select a player on both teams that could make a difference for their respective squads.
Duke: forward Justise Winslow
Winslow not only made big plays in the first matchup between the two teams, but is also fresh off a pair of impressive performances against Clemson and Virginia Tech and has scored in double figures in nine straight games, the longest such streak of his career. The freshman shot 57 percent or better in each of his last three outings and has the ability to control tempo after pulling down rebounds, which is why his 8.5 rebounds per game average his last four contests has been so crucial... Read more
Duke in the NBA: Singler, Plumlee getting comfortable with new teams
The NBA trade deadline was a chaotic time for NBA teams, with more than eight percent of players on rosters and more than $225 million in contracts uprooted as teams try to position themselves for postseason runs:
Kyrie Irving, Cleveland Cavaliers: Last year's All-Star Game MVP, Irving relinquished the honor to Oklahoma City Thunder point guard Russell Westbrook this year, who led the West to victory against Irving's East squad. Irving also competed in the 3-point contest but was unable to defend his title.
Irving jumped right back into action with the Cavaliers following the All-Star break, leading Cleveland to four straight wins by averaging 21.3 points and playing off LeBron James nicely. Led by James' 42 points, the Cavaliers knocked off Western Conference power Golden State 110-99 and Irving also chipped in 24 points... Read more
Beyond the Arc: Duke basketball vs. Virginia Tech
It took longer than expected, but thanks to a career day from freshman center Jahlil Okafor, the No. 4 Blue Devils escaped Blacksburg, Va., with a hard-fought 91-86 overtime win against Virginia Tech Wednesday night. Okafor and senior captain Quinn Cook combined for 56 points at Cassell Coliseum to lead Duke to its eighth straight win.
Revisiting the three keys to the game:
- Continue to score in transition: The box score says the Blue Devils only got 13 fastbreak points, but once again, Duke was at its best when it was able to get ahead of the defense. The Blue Devils used their transition game to jump out to a 15-4 lead and an 8-0 run in 1:15 in the middle of the second half to turn a six-point deficit into a two-point lead and get right back in the game... Read more
HALFTIME: Virginia Tech 39, Duke 37
BLACKSBURG, Va.—Jahlil Okafor made his return to the court Wednesday night, but the Blue Devils are getting all they can handle from the Hokies.
No. 4 Duke trails Virginia Tech 39-37 at Cassell Coliseum. Six straight points from sophomore Devin Wilson late in the half brought the Hokies all the way back from a 15-4 deficit to grab the lead after the Blue Devils led for most of the first half.
In the opening minutes, the Blue Devils looked to be well on their way to eighth straight win against the Hokies. Virginia Tech grabbed an early 4-2 lead, but Duke rattled off the next 13 points to claim control.
After scoring 17 first-half points Saturday against Clemson, Winslow came out of the gates firing again in Blacksburg. The Houston native got a couple of deflections, hit a 3-pointer and then finished a fast break with a dunk to stake the Blue Devils to a 9-4 lead by the first media timeout. Winslow combined with classmates Okafor and Tyus Jones to score 18 of Duke's first 24 points... Read more

Life Path Number 4Meaning of the number Four in numerologyPositive and Negative aspects, including talents and personality, of the people with a Life Path Number Four Number Four people are domestic birds - they love their home and their family and have strong emotional ties with the mother or major caregiver. If Four is your life path number you won't want to venture too far away from home for very long and could spend your later years living close by where you were brought up as a child. You have a strong love of nature and wildlife and are happiest when exploring the countryside or simply walking by the sea. You enjoy good food and drink and there could be a tendency to put on weight if you're not careful. Your personal life is more important to you than your work, which you see merely as a means to an end. Although not over-ambitious you are likely to excel in your job and stay with the same company for a long time. You could work in sales or in the caring profession. When you settle down you intend for it to be for life. You love children and are an excellent caregiver and provider. You are likely to remain faithful to your partner and expect fidelity on their part too. You will feel the same for your partner after fifty years as you did after fifty hours.

Gold Rush win 7-0 against NCAA D-I Tennessee State February 20, 2011 Results NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Xavier University of Louisiana's men's tennis team won 7-0 Sunday at Tennessee State — the second victory of the season for the Gold Rush (7-2) against an NCAA Division I opponent. Xavier dropped one set in seven completed matches. Sean Richardson won 6-0, 6-0 against Gregory Ruffin at No. 4 singles, and Jonathan Aubrey did the same against Matthew Ingram at No. 5. Richardson and Steffen Giles-Osborn teamed for an 8-0 victory over Skyler Dowdy and Ruffin to clinch the doubles point at No. 2. The lone match with suspense involved Zach Taylor and Lawrence Washington at No. 1 singles. Taylor rallied from a 5-2 deficit in third set and a 7-3 deficit during the super-tiebreaker to win 2-6, 7-5, 1-0 (10-7). Also winning were Taylor and Hassan Abbas in an 8-4 No. 1 doubles decision against Washington and Shaun Ingram, Giles-Osborn by 6-1, 6-0 over Shaun Ingram at No. 2 singles and Amir Rahbar by 6-1, 6-1 against Dowdy at No. 3. Tennessee State, playing its opener, had just five available players and defaulted at No. 3 doubles and No. 6 singles. The next Gold Rush match will start March 4 at Vanguard in Costa Mesa, Calif. Vanguard was tied for sixth in the NAIA preseason rankings, and a new top 25 will be announced Tuesday.
The Xavier Gold Rush and Gold Nuggets compete in Division I of the NAIA (National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics) as a member of the Gulf Coast Athletic Conference (GCAC). Xavier fields men's teams in basketball, cross country and tennis and women's teams in basketball, cross country, tennis and volleyball.

Alfie is the only one in the family who is somewhat grumpy indifferent less than enthusiastic about dressing up for Halloween. He does it because he knows the kids like it; once they leave home I doubt if I'll be able to persuade him to go anywhere near a costume. Oh well, just like childhood, I have to enjoy Alfie's costume era while it lasts.
Since the kids were born, Alfie has only had two costumes: a skeleton and Jack Sparrow. Every year he's either one or the other, so this is quite an unusual year in that Alfie has three Halloween costumes to choose from. First is a werewolf costume from Pottery Barn Teen:
It was given to us to review, and I chose it for Alfie because I thought he'd enjoy the warmth it would provide as we went trick-or-treating on Halloween night. It's just a headpiece and gloves, so he can wear it with regular clothing and take it off really easily.
Alfie's second choice is a devil bathrobe costume that I bought for the annual PTA auction party. The theme was a pajama party, and Alfie didn't want to go in just any old boring pair of pajamas. We thought of Wee Willie Winkie, in his nightcap and gown, so I went on eBay and found one from a UK site. I bid and won.... but horror of horrors, when it arrived, it was just the cap! No gown. Apparently the term "Fancy Dress" in the phrase "Wee Willie Winkie Night Cap Fancy Dress" meant "Costume", not "and gown". I should have known it was too good to be true, but with just one week left, I had to move on to Plan B. I found a devil smoking jacket and convinced Alfie he'd look cool if we left the horns off and cut the tail out and he could go as Hugh Hefner.
(By the way, that is not my husband. I don't have a photo of him wearing the costume, because if he decides not to wear it then I can try to resell it as "New, Never Worn").
But Alfie still wasn't sure about the Hugh Hefner thing, so in the end he decided to wear his own pajamas, along with the nightcap, and take along his very own Teddy. Except he never got to wear it, because 3Po got sick and Alfie had to stay home with him.
Which costume will Alfie ultimately pick for Halloween night? Who knows?

Presented by: Bob Archer, CE Pro
Panelists: George Walter, VP of Home Cinema, Digital Projection, Inc.; Jim Groover, National Sales Manager, Stewart Filmscreen Corporation
The technology changes in video are coming so fast and furious it's hard to keep up with them. If integrators are confused, then certainly your clients are. In many cases, consumers are basing their purchasing decision on two main criteria: budget and quality.

The session will also review some key talking points and sales techniques to use with customers when deciding between projection and flat panel technology. The panel will also cover some key decision-making criteria for projectors based on applications, such as ambient light, room size, motorization, ceiling height, ceiling mount vs. table mount, cooling, throw distance, and noise. Also maintenance and anamorphic solutions will be discussed.

I don't know if you have tried the Subs that the Sub Shop at Giant Eagle makes Fresh to Go, but we have become accustomed to our Friday Night Subs from Giant Eagle. It is disappointing that not EVERY Giant Eagle has them, but I travel to the Cranberry Location to pick these up~ They are THAT good.
I don't eat meat but there are veggies subs, meat subs and Philly Cheese Steak Subs, with 4 different breads to choose from! The Subs are not you SUBWAY subs, because there is ACTUALLY a generous helping of meat and veggies on these subs. The staff is so outgoing and friendly and they make sure you LIKE the final product! I love that we individually order them, and that we can get 1/2's or wholes just like Subway, however… The price ROCKS, $4.99. Make sure to ask them to WRITE what type of sub is in each package because you will not know who belongs to which sub.
Here is the deal for a few more days. Use your Advantage card to BOGO the subs, 2 for $4.99. Each Sub gets punched on your SUB Card so you are on your way to earning FREE FOOD! We get these subs faithfully every week from the Caprese to the Philly, they are great. The bread is fresh, the veggies are delicious, not all fabricated, and the lunch meat is ACTUALLY really there. I love the Caprese! Toasted or Not!
If you have not tried their pizza, bread sticks or mini stromboletti, and garlic knots you are also missing out on a very palatable set of foods. The garlic knots are 2/$1 and sell out frequently. The mini stromboletti is layered with meat and cheese and a great option for those kids not quite ready for a full size strombolli, but ready to TRY a great food. We order our pizza's ahead as well as our bread sticks! Make sure to get the sauce.
Friday nights pizza nights for so many families, but have you gotten the Giant Eagle Advantage and earned Fuel Perks for your purchases? You have not if you are getting your pizzas, subs and bread sticks anywhere else other than Giant Eagle. Earn free food with the sub card, get delicious hearth-baked pizza and manga bene on Subs from the Giant Eagle Prepared Foods Department.

It has a presence in eight provinces with a total landbank of 289,422 hectares out of which 204,466 are planted with oil palm, representing approximately 71% of the company's total planted area.
With 71 estates and 23 SOUs (Strategic Operating Units) located in Sumatra, Kalimantan and Sulawesi, Minamas upstream operations produced 3.946 million metric tonnes of fresh fruit bunches (FFB) and 1,053,311 metric tonnes of crude palm oil in the 2012/2013 financial year.
Out of the 23 PTs in Indonesia, 20 PTs have received the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) certification while the rest were audited for certification. Today, Minamas Plantation produces 942,945 metric tonnes of certified sustainable palm oil and 189,884 metric tonnes of certified sustainable palm kernels. Total certified planted hectares are 196,321 Ha.
RSPO is one of leading international standard for sustainable palm oil, and Plantation Upstream Indonesia remain committed to continuously sustain RSPO certification for palm oil operations.
Aside the RSPO certification, on March 2013, two of our subsidiary – PT. Swadaya Andika and PT. Laguna Mandiri – also receive an Indonesia's Sustanainable Palm Oil (ISPO) certification from Indonesia's Ministry of Agriculture. While two other subsidiaries company – PT. Langgeng Muara Makmur and PT. Paripurna Swakarsa – are now also on final process of verification as the ISPO certification awardee.
And by the end of 2014, all of our subsidiaries company are planned to receive the ISPO certification as obliged by the Indonesia's government.
To facilitate yield enhancement and quality improvement, an agricultural research station, Minamas Research Centre located in the Riau Province carries out experiments to enhance the yield and improve the quality and processes for the upstream operations.
Awards and Achievements
National Zero Accident Award In 2011, about seven of Minamas Plantation Subsidiaries received National Zero Accident Award, namely: Rantau Panjang Mill, Rantau Panjang Estate, Manggala Mill, KKPA Guthrie Pecconina Indonesia, PT Lahan Tani Sakti, (Alur Dumai Estate and Mill), Teluk Siak Mill, PT Bahari Gembira Ria (Ladang Panjang Estate and Mill).

Benefiting the local communities
As a founding member of the RSPO, the welfare of communities in its areas of operation takes utmost precedence, with their economic well being given careful consideration and top priority.
In Indonesia where Minamas has a total workforce of about 38,000 people, the communities in the vicinity of its operations benefit from the increased economic activities and development in these areas.
Infrastructure enhancement including the construction of houses, roads, schools, clinics, religious houses, crèches and other public amenities are constantly ongoing as part of Minamas' effort to elevate the quality of life of the local communities.
To date, Minamas has provided more than 24,000 houses for its employees. Number of central medical clinics in Kalimantan and Sumatera has increased to 29, medical clinics to 44 and day care centres to 163.
In 2011, Minamas has also offered 55 scholarships to dependents of employees, dependents of nearby communities with plantation as well as students who excel in Colleges and Universities in Indonesia. While in 2012, the recipients of Minamas's scholarships programme has increased into 72 awardees. Total of 196 educational scholarships have been provided to students since 2009.
Minamas has a total workforce of about 38,000 across its operations, providing job opportunities for communities in and surrounding its operations. The stable income stream has helped elevate the quality of life for these communities.
Over the years, the number of training and career development programmes has increased significantly with a total of over 30,000 hours training by 1,050 participants in FY2012/2013 compared to 25,000 hours by 1,616 participants in FY2011/2012. The training courses range from in-house organised to public training sessions.
In accordance to the respective labour laws, Minamas employees maintain a 40-hour week schedule while being entitled to annual leave and benefits. Employees also enjoy the freedom of association to a worker's union, in this case the Federasi Serikat Pekerja Minamas Plantation.
Plasma schemes
The Plasma scheme, which was first conceived as part of the Indonesian government's transmigration programme in the 1980s to achieve a more balanced demographic-geographical spread of population is also ongoing.
Sime Darby Plantation, through Minamas has successfully implemented the Plasma scheme in its Indonesian operations to assist the local communities with means to make a living by becoming independent plantation growers. Minamas is committed to purchase fresh fruit bunches (FFB) produced by smallholders' plantations under the Plasma scheme.
While waiting for the maturity of the plantation, the smallholders are employed by the company and educated on the finer aspects of oil palm cultivation. Currently, there are about 41,415 hectares of oil palm planted on Plasma / KKPA schemes in Minamas producing 658.467 metric tons fresh fruit bunches (FFB) in the last financial year 2012/13.

Charlie Hunnam Gossip
Charlie Hunnam gossip, latest news, photos, and video.
Beware of Crimson Peak
There's a steadily growing swell of hype surrounding Guillermo Del Toro's Crimson Peak, which released its first trailer today (spurred on by a bootleg copy making the rounds after it debuted in front of Fifty Shades of Grey last night—when will studios learn that they cannot stop this from happening and just release trailers BEFORE they're slated to premiere in theaters?). Full Story
Charlie Hunnam's nudity and smell
Been thinking a lot about Charlie Hunnam since seeing Fifty Shades Of Grey last night. And how much better it would have been with him in it. And, sh-t, how much more I would have wanted to see his come face in it. And whether or not, if he was in it, whether or not they would have made the decision to let us see his come face. Full Story

It was announced yesterday that Charlie Hunnam will replace Benedict Cumberbatch in The Lost City Of Z. Cumberbatch dropped out because he's doing Dr Strange. Ummm…no problem here, not from where I'm sitting. That's an upgrade. Charlie will play Col. Percival Fawcett. Full Story
Let's open with Charlie Hunnam

It's a cold, sh-tty Monday to start what will be a long week of work. Everyone's officially back in gear now. No more excuses about getting over the holiday. Are you facing as many deadlines as I am? Anyway, to make your Monday easier, here's Charlie Hunnam in Milan this weekend for Calvin Klein, sitting front row at the menswear fashion show looking like… well…looking like it's his first time sitting front row at a fashion show. Full Story
Charlie Hunnam knows how to… Part 88,012
So this is what happened at the end of the penultimate episode of Sons Of Anarchy the other night. It's likely Jax Teller's final love scene. Once in a while I get a message in my inbox from someone yelling at me for not watching Outlander. I tried 15 minutes once and almost fell asleep it was so boring with all the voiceovers. Full Story
Charlie in VOGUE
Charlie Hunnam wasn't at Comic-Con this year, the final year for Sons Of Anarchy. If you recall, to make up for his absence, a video was played in Hall H explaining why he couldn't be there. I'm reposting in case you've forgotten. But, really, I just want you to get another shot of his ass: So he missed Comic-Con because he had to do a photo shoot for VOGUE. Full Story
My Obsession's pink hair

My Obsession, Sam and Aaron Taylor-Johnson, showed up to an event yesterday in Hollywood with new pink hair. At this point, it blends in. It's not even different anymore. I like the pictures of them interacting with other people at the party. Look at Aaron's face listening to his wife. Full Story
Dear Gossips,
My final argument in favour of Charlie Hunnam's odds of being named the Sexiest Man Alive as part of the annual handicapping feature was as follows:
"He knows how to f-ck. I promise you."
Here's a screencap of Charlie from last week's episode of Sons Of Anarchy during a montage of several characters having sex that the Parents Television Council is now objecting to.
I guess it's because I don't have kids. Because I don't object to ANYTHING about this photo. We were on a shoot yesterday when it came up on my feed and the moment I showed it to Traci Melchor we both stopped breathing. Like I said, he knows how to f-ck. He knows how to use that leg as leverage and crank the right parts into the right places at exactly the right angle. Read Full Intro
Hotter than yellow
Can you imagine anyone else in this yellow jacket? Like… Leonardo DiCaprio? Total douchebag, right? But somehow, on Charlie Hunnam, I'm not getting skeeved. Not even when he's eating. And no one looks sexy when they're eating. Sh-t. He's so f-cking hot, I can't. Full Story
Dear Gossips,
I don't watch Sons Of Anarchy anymore. For a variety of reasons, one of them being that the sex to violence ratio has become too heavily favoured on the violence side. But I've heard that Charlie Hunnam finally got down to f-ck on last night's episode. Sh-t. I'm going to have to find that.
Charlie, Kurt Sutter, and the cast were on Conan last night to promote the final few episodes of the series. Charlie talked about how he gets propositioned often and Jax Teller's "cool factor" for men. See, I hate the Jax character. He looks good, sure. But all he ever does is screw up. That isn't sexy to me. Charlie Hunnam in real life on the other hand…
And when he's talking about hand jacuzzis…
I was REALLY, REALLY excited when that story started. Read Full Intro
Charlie Hunnam
Arguments for: -Have you seen him in the Men's Health December issue OH MY GOD HOLY F-CK -Please if you haven't watch the video below -Sons Of Anarchy is really popular and the cover would be well-timed going into its final episode. Full Story
Five more Jax
There are now 5 episodes remaining of Sons Of Anarchy. Have you been watching? I thought I would, just to close out the series, but then I lost interest. If you tell me when Jax is going to have sex again though, I might care. Give me the episode number and the minute mark and I'll take it from there, no need to get through all the story parts. Full Story
Charlie cares about a carpet
Wenn, FameFlynet, Kevin Winter/ Getty
My complaint about Charlie Hunnam red carpet pictures is that he always looks so sh-tty in them. Probably because he doesn't give a f-ck. But I do. Because he's SO hot, it's like a waste when he doesn't present it to its highest potential. You can see the difference when he poses for editorial or promotion. Full Story
Ummm…there's more video
I'm about to make you feel creamy all day… That Charlie Hunnam CK Reveal ad? There's a longer video. FLARE posted an interview with Doutzen Kroes with some behind-the-scenes footage and… It's making me short of breath. Full Story

Chrisy Moltisanti wrote:So last night at the local brewery some firefighters in my town who grew up boxing and are now trying MMA said that any top level boxer would beat any top level Pride, K-1, UFC or Bodog (Fedor) fighter in a real street fight. I was polite at first, but they really had a poor opinion of MMA fighers, so I just said it really wasn't worth talking about. What are some objective points I can express to them other than a few basics about mastering 3+ arts and combining them in to one fighting style is far more effective than solely knowing how to throw fists?They countered with an assertion that any real boxer would knock out a grappler or wrestler before a take down could happen. I tried telling about Gracie BJJ, Dan Sevren, Matt Hughes etc, and about fighting from the clinch etc and how many great fighters of other arts had tried to master MMA such as BJ Penn. But they weren't hearing it, claiming a shoot fighter or any other style couldn't get close enough and that the best fighters in the world aren't going to MMA and retired ones don't think it's a more effective fighting style than boxing. I tried to explain that any stand up guy does have a punchers chance and could beat the best MMA guy and that chance was about 1 in 10 (that really pissed them off). The one area I'm personally wondering about is does an average pro boxer have better stand up in a street fight situation than an average MMA striker, and could any MMA fighter in history stand up to a Tyson or Ali in a street fight and how would a rule of no ground game effect the result?

I've known Tiffany, better known as Limpit, since I was in diapers. She's a couple of years older than me, so you'd think we would have drifted apart by now. That's not the case. She's been a constant force in my life. And she's one of the few who doesn't mind my sexuality in the least.
Just thinking about her brings a smile to my face. I used to live next door to her, so we saw each other every day. I think I spent more nights on her couch than in my own bed. I always had a place over there. Her family loved me, though I could never quite figure out why. They were all very conservative, and my family owned a motorcycle shop. I think that should give you an idea of my upbringing. But they put up with all my wild ideas and habits. So it never really bothered me that we were so different.
My family moved out west when I was in first grade. Leave it to Limpit to always write me. Living on oposite sides of the country didn't even effect our friendship. So when we moved back three years later, it was as if I'd never left. We went to different schools now, but I always ended up at her house when the final bell rang.
She started highschool two years before I did. My family was worried that she'd get involved with her new friends and leave me behind. After all, that's how it usually happens. And while it's true that she made new friends, she would still drop everything to hang out with me. I finally started high school, and we got to see each other more. I had first period with her, and we'd pass notes to each other in the halls. She spent more time with me and my friends than she did with people in her own class.
She transferred schools. I started homeschooling. I was always working, and she had new friends to hang out with. I thought that was the end of it. I couldn't have been more wrong.
When I came to terms with my sexuality, I needed to tell someone. I told Sari, of course, but I needed someone outside of the situation. I needed to know that I would be accepted. So, not knowing who else to turn to, I told Limpit. I was really afraid her conservative upbringing would have an effect, but I really shouldn't have worried. She not only accepted me, but fully supported me. And she's still one of the very few people who I can talk to without making them uneasy.
She's one of the most beautiful people you'll ever meet, both inside and out. She's funny, smart, understanding, loyal, sympathetic, patient, strong, and anything else you could ever want in a friend. She has this laugh that will make you smile just by hearing it. And even the most shallow person would take notice of her, because she looks like a supermodel. Her only fault is her taste in men. She has a horrible habit of falling for guys who don't realize how lucky they are to have her. Very few people have the capacity to love like she does.
She saw one of those boys today. She smiled and talked to him, never letting on about all the feelings she still held inside. As soon as he was out of sight, though, she fell apart. Someone once said that the most beautiful smile is the one that shines through tears. They must have been thinking of her when they spoke those words. Because watching her talk about how she loved him as the tears fall from her eyes was one of the most painfully beautiful things I've ever witnessed.
Sometimes I think that no matter how much we love and appreciate a person, we'll never comprehend the full beauty of their being. And while I still feel that way, I believe that today I might have caught a glimpse of it. I guess the problem is that everyone thinks of her as some sort of guiding angel. We forget that behind that strong, reliable smile is a girl who hurts just as much as any of us. Perhaps even more. So for anyone out there reading this, take a moment and think of that angel in your life. You don't have to do or say anything to them. Just think for a moment, and realize how lucky you are to know someone like that. Realize that they're putting you before any problems in their own life. That they do it because they love you. And I'd like you to realize that that in itself, ladies and gentlemen, makes anything we endure in this life well worth it.
Anything that I'll say will just minimize the beauty of your words. Thank you for posting this as it's given me much needed perspective.
"All that we see or seem is but a dream within a dream."
I'm new here to the site, and just read a whole bunch of the posts you've written. You write beautifully. Thank you for- I don't know what,exactly. For posting so honestly. Hell, I'm rambling. But it's truly awesome you have a friend like that.

Chevrolet Camaro Lease Questions
CarMan@Edmunds Posts: 38,515Hey buster6. Ally's March base lease rate and residual value for a 24-month lease of a 2013 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible with 15,000 miles per year are 5.21% and 65%.
I believe that General Motors is providing a $250 cash incentive on 2-year leases of this car. It is waiving the first monthly payment on leases as well.

buster6 Posts: 106
Wanted to share my deal and hope it will help someone else
Car: Camaro 2SS RS Coupe-auto-nav-sunroof Msrp: $42,180 sales price: $39,002
other discounts that were deducted from the sales price and used as cap cost reduction: GM card top off $2,000 Private offer $1,000
Cash out of pocket: $768.00 (covered first payment, sales tax on rebates and permit to drive home)
Monthly Payment pre tax: $370.xx
Monthly with tax $401.xx (8.5% tax rate)
money factor .00135/residual 71% 2 yr 15k with US Bank
fees: $80.00 doc fee $95.00 one way permit to dirve home (purchased out of state and registered myself at home) $595 lease acq fee
It is a good time to lease a gm vehicle with the top off offer. 42K vehicle for $400 per month with low drive offs and a 2 year contract is nice.

My stepfather was a Marine in Vietnam, as my grandfather had been in World War II. He left for war under the watchful eyes of the Greatest Generation, fought, and came home much as my grandfather had decades before, but their lives turned out very differently. My grandfather went on to become a scholar, diplomat, and a family man, and made it an even 90 years to die in peace. My stepfather was a good man and father, but suffered from chronic post traumatic stress symptoms and substance dependency for the rest of his life, surviving into his 50's only to succumb to an Agent Orange-style leukemia.
The stories I heard growing up make this a less-distinct comparison, however. Raised mostly by my grandfather, he spoke in his (few) darker moments of rancid jungles, snakes, bodies torn by bamboo and metal, friends hoarding body parts as trophies, and a starving enemy in dead men's uniforms, sneaking in chow lines to steal or blow themselves to pieces. Heavy stuff, but not unlike retellings of the Vietnam era or the Asian Wars of our century.
As Patton put it, "battle is an orgy of disorder," guaranteeing little good comes to anyone involved. To hand it to Homer, however, "men grow tired of sleep, love, singing and dancing sooner than war," and I'm afraid that's what gets me most. War fascinates me, it always has, and thanks to that my son has developed a taste for its mythology, even if people like us have no appreciation of how awful it is.
Maybe I watched too much TV as a kid or I'm trying to earn approval from the ghosts in my head, I can't say, but war rivets my attention. I get immersed in its games, and am always pondering models of strategy, tactics, and logistics. War is really a muse for me, possibly my most inspirational -- nothing's pushed my buttons like it since early childhood. I get this is a historical, human fascination, but can't shake how unhealthy it feels.
If I learned anything from my Grandfather's experiences, however, passing between between war and peace is (or should be) not unlike death and birth. In his day folks understood this, for whatever reason, and that was the essence of his stories -- over there things were wrong, but it wasn't reality as any sane person knew it. Back home, thank God, they could live again.
I wonder if that's the big thing somebody missed in my stepfather's time: We forgot war isn't part of the real world, even though real people go from one to the other and need understanding to adjust. As bad as this sounds, perhaps every generation has to renew these lessons to protect those which follow. Whether or not we accept war as a given, I hope we grow to accept its nature so warriors safely return to our world when the time is right.

Thursday, February 27, 2014
FORT MYERS, Fla. — He's written a book. He's endorsing a Japanese beer -- "please try it." And he met Japan Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and U.S. Ambassador to Japan Caroline Kennedy.
Overall, in 73 appearances, he went 4-1 with a 1.09 ERA and 21 saves. He set a club record with 37 consecutive batters retired from Aug. 17 to Sept. 13.
But Uehara pitched an MLB career-high 88 innings, 51 more innings than with the Rangers in 2012, when a lat strain limited him to just 37 appearances. |

Daily Yoga - Fitness On-the-Go
1,000,000 - 5,000,000 downloads
- Nice and easy to use interface
- Clean and useful videos and voice
- Overall, no complaints
+ By IMOBLIFE Co. Ltd
An app for yoga lovers
Daily Yoga is a easy to use app to manage and make use of several yoga sessions by keeping your device next to you and following the step by step procedures it shows. It also allows to listen to yoga-like music and keep a library of favorite poses.
It's remarkable this app's interface, which is indeed very clean and accessible even for the most low-end users. In other words, it works on 2.1 Android and even your grand-grand mother would know how to use it.
Every session is divided into three difficulty stages and durations, with a full screen demonstration video and canned yet easy to understand voice narration. So far there are four different sessions available, each one devoted to a specific part of the body: abs, back, butt and chest. First two are for free, the last two are worth a dollar each.
It'd be nice if narrations and texts were available in more languages. In addition, you may miss there was more stuff dedicated to breathing and more spiritual stuff, but we're quite sure that it would be quite awkward as this app is a very good complement to any yoga lessons you take or have taken, but it or any other won't ever become an app to teach Yoga or learn it on your own. Anyway, sessions oriented to other benefits of yoga (balance, resting) would be appreciated in upcoming updates. Besides that, this app would achieve absolute awesomeness if poses were 360º or can be rotated somehow.
Lastly, the app adds an option to keep track of your sessions and a score system to motivate you further. Excellent. Ommm.
Daily Yoga is the world's most popular yoga coaching app suitable for all levels, beginners, intermediate and advanced, providing 50+ HD yoga exercises and the largest database of 400+ yoga poses, HD VIDEOS, live voice guide, soothing music, social community, and more.

How come the video session don't run by itself now? I have to click manually each step of the pose, it's so uncomfortable.
I like the app. That said, I hate the notifications! There is no way to disable this either. So I end up getting woken up at all odd hours of the night whenever they feel that I need to know about sales.
Get rid of the stupid notification ads
Good looking and simple app with clear videos, but it popups ads, even if it is not running.
Doesn't flow, weird accent, annoying push notifications
I love this yoga app. Very professional, the videos, instructions, musics. Unfortunately, i don't have any cards to pay the pro. One star left for the language. I just hope there is Bahasa Indonesia. Thank you

April 25 (Bloomberg) -- The following companies had unusual price changes in Argentine trading. Stock symbols are in parentheses, and share prices are as of the close in Buenos Aires. The Merval index fell 1.5 percent to 2,277.08.
Aluar Aluminio Argentino SA (ALUA AF), the country's largest aluminum producer, fell 3 percent to 2.26 pesos, its lowest on a closing basis since September 2009.
