Hi my fiance has been working for UPS for about 3 years as a package handler/and Driver in Delaware. We have been commuting and have lived apart/separate careers for over 2 years now and we're finally planning to be married this fall. He told me about 3 months ago, when he proposed, he was up for a promotion (or rather he is going to take the opportunity to move up to Feeder Driver) which will offer him more pay and opportunity to start over at his new salary out in New Jersey where I live and so we can finally start our lives together. He told me he needs to pass the test for the CDL license with UPS and he can relocate starting over fresh with a CDL and as a FEEDER driver making over ($80,000-$100K a year) I truly hope he is being honest with me. Additionally, he told me he still won't be "picked" for another 5 to 6 months until he can even take the test for the CDL to go for this feeder position! Is this true? I sometimes wonder if this is just a way to delay moving out to New Jersey with me to finally start our lives here (together) because he is not ready. Is it true that UPS selects one guy per month to go out for the CDL testings and that indeed he could be Guy #8 in line for Feeder? Why would it take so long? Also, I noticed he had been given a pretty large book to study and it seems to me that UPS is serious about passing the test and who will get the job for Feeder Driver (which is great) and it seems very rigorous to me so I can't help but notice he has not even studied a single page of the material given to him yet and when I try to help him study I am shocked to learn he doesnt know a thing from the material given!! I fear he is not taking this seriously enough and thinks he can simply pass. Should I be worried? Is there or not a written test for CDL license for this position and how difficult is it? What does the Feeder Driver tests/CDL entail/involve? He doesnt even seem to know! When you pass a CDL test obviously you are given a CDL license right, but does UPS give another form of ID or license once he gets the Feeder position, indicating that he is a Feeder? Thanks for any help!
If a job is available and if quailfied he will be able to bid that job and the money is better, but he'll also have to wait because the job will be posted and bid by seniority. The written test is easy but the pre-trip is a bitch, he'll have to know everything about that equipment. Goood luck!!
How do I give you more than 1 like on that one,brother? Rianna, if you're even half as worried as you come across then DO NOT GET MARRIED until he is established in his job position, and you as well. You are in this 50/50, right? Feeder isn't just a decent check. It's crappy hours. Long hours. Bouncing around when you're the newbie. NO summer vacations,etc. But if he sticks with it it will pay off in the long run. The same advice goes to your relationship.
Where do you start with this one? Over and Cach pretty much nailed it here, tho. If you have these issues NOW, it ain't gonna get better, kid. First of all, he said he could TRANSFER to NJ? In most parts of the country, you can't do that with UPS just because there's an opening where you want to go. In most parts, if he quits his present position (on good terms), he MAY be able to get REHIRED at a different location, only to start over. Second, UPS is like this, that is, they can tell you you're hired, then put you on hold for days/weeks/months, maybe evern years, just waiting for THEY, THEMSELVES to make up their mind. If he already works for UPS in DE, he already knows the routine, that they can constantly hold out the "carrot", with you/him never being able to grab it. Another thing, if he doesn't want to study now, you ain't gonna force him. Does this indicate another underlieing problem? That maybe he's not motivated? Think about it. Something else, if UPS DOES send him to school, UPS does NOT give him a CDL upon graduation. He merely passed the school. It is up to HIM to go get a CDL. Now, UPS may provide the vehicle necessary to take the CDL test but you don't automatically start driving for UPS after school. Like was also said, if he's this new, he's gonna have s*** for hours, routes, bids, etc. Can HE put up with that? Can YOU put up with that? Yes, the pay is great, after he makes full progression, but the sacrifices are many. It's gonna take years to get what you or he may consider a good bid. Can you or him put up with that for so long? I worked in feeders for 30 of my 32 years at UPS and almost all of those years was at night or sleeper team, which was away from home a week at a time. Good luck to both of you. Feel free to ask any more questions you may have or better yet, have HIM ask these questions.
Thank you greatly for all the wonderful advice you have each given me. Is there a supervisor he can speak to about all of this to get some one on one advice? I feel like he is not hearing or seeing the bigger side of things and yes this concerns me. I don't know if he is being mislead or if he just hears from the other guys at work that "Feeders make a sh** load of money" and just assumes when he gets pulled he'll be able to transfer to NJ and immediately be okay financially making his Feeder salary. I am beginning to realize this is not so. Recently, a big guy supervisor approached him and told him he has one of the highest scores in his hub right now for what he's doing and they all think of him so highly. He is an extreme hard worker and they see that in him. They offered him a "Supervisor" position, he denied because he said he is waiting to be pulled for FEEDER so he can make more money and move to New Jersey to be with/marry me. He said the Supervisor agreed Feeders do make more money but I do not believe they told him this. I would think they would have encouraged him more and gave him better advice since they think so highly of him. I thought a Supervisor position would have been great and would have more benefits/stocks more "home time"... My fiance says no and to just trust him. He says he'll always be home for dinner and as a family-man/father as a Feeder and bringing home near $90-$100K a year for a nice Jersey home out here and not to worry. I can't help but to worry when I ask him a simple question, which I feel I have every right to know since we're planning to marry and spend the rest of our lives together, he doesnt even know the clear black and white factual answers to. Doesnt UPS give there employees Job Listings/promotion listings to internal employees with this important info on it so they know what they're salary is going to possibly be starting at in black and white? Hence, isnt there a Personnel or Human Resource Dept or someone with the Union that can give black and white material of what going for a Feeder Driver entails to an employee interested? Like especially is the TRANSFER option is available, and info on how long it takes for the position/salary to be effective, if he'll be on "HOLD" for a long time, what the hours will be like, overtime, routes, benefits, etc. Also, what is a bid? Does he have to put a bid in for the position once it is offered? I do not feel like I should be doing this research for him and do feel he should KNOW all this already, this is his career and his/our future were talking about, but I love him very much and care about him and our well being, happiness and future together very much as well and I just want him to be more educated so he or we're both not in for a shocker before it's too late. Sounds like that is what will happen. He disagrees. I love him so much but I think he's not "life smart" "career smart" and that concerns me yes and no, I don't know if I can handle that but then again I love him. He's my very, very BEST FRIEND and I want the best for him and I don't want him to sell him self short in life. He deserves the best and I want that for him and us. I want us to be happy and this is what he thinks will make him happy and us happy but I have a bad feeling about it all because he seems to know nothing about it when I ask him simple questions to what I think he should have factual answers to about his career with UPS. It stuns me he is so "in the dark" that's stupidity to me and I hate to say that to him but I care for him to know especially since he has a MASTERS degree and amazing talent as an artist and in so many areas, he sells him self short but working for UPS is what makes him happy and I need to support that as he supports my career here, but I pray he's got the "FACTS" before he makes a huge mistake.
Yikes, I don't even know where to start.... You think he can make $100k AND be home for dinner every night???? If he's pulling in $100k, he's working A LOT of OT. Transfers pretty much DON'T happen. Bids? He's a new guy with no seniority. He will be taking the garbage no one else wants for MANY years. Pay structure is clearly outlined in the contract. Yes, there is HR dept that could help him. Feeders is a good job, but it'll be YEARS till he sees everything you want. What's that Masters degree for, and why isn't he using it? Good luck to both of you!
That is so much easier to read. Your and his expectation on the family life that UPS will provide is going to lead you down the path to divorce. I think he is telling you what you want to hear and you are probably right to question it.
Thanks for all your responses. I'm concerned now he won't and cannot transfer to one of the North New Jersey hubs now like you said and that I have been reading in other threads. I can't believe he doesnt know this and I seem to be looking into all this more then he does and it's HIS COMPANY/CAREER!! This is a problem. He thinks he will get pulled soon, being there's a only a few guys on the list ahead of him, and once he gets pulled shortly after he'll be moving out to me in North New Jersey, transferring to like the Parsippany, New Jersey hub as a tractor trailer feeder driver immediately and all is just going to fall in place just like that so he promises and promises me. Sounds to me he's being nieve and doesnt have his facts together and this is not as close to reality as he/we think. Sounds like this can take more like YEARS rather then what he thinks a few months. I agree, he could be telling me just what I want to hear and getting what he wants to be at UPS is not that easy and not as close to grasp as he believes and he wants me to believe.
He has a degree in Graphic Design/Illustration art. He is an amazing artist with extreme talent. I just wish he would realize it. Thanks Over9Five!
Rianna, you may not know the answer to this question now, but your husband should be able to answer it for you. What local of the union(teamsters) is he working for now? When you have the answer, post it. Rianna, you do realize that you pretty much posted the identity of your fiancee on this webpage. Are you comfortable with that and just as importantly, is he?
First off feeder drivers work off the seniority list. He can bid a roite when one is available. Most of these guys i know have 20 years in. Second, sups make very good money. The more years of service increases your salary though. Also stock and bonuses help. Good luck in a transfer,even if he can you lose all seniority. He would have a better chance transferring as a sup
Rianna, Stop. You are setting yourself up to become one of those wives with husband's balls in freezer.
Ok. Difference. The wife that cuts them off and places them in the freezer. The wife that plays with them in a cold bedroom which makes you hotter by the second.
I have been a pkg driver for UPS since 1989. I am currently going thru the process of becoming a feeder driver. Im assuming the book he has is just the written test that u take online at the DMV. That part was easy but does require some studying. The hard part is preparing for the pre-trip and road test that u must take to complete the CDL process. Ive been workin my but off for 4 days with the local feeder supervisor and im stressed out. It is a huge amount of info to memorize and apply. He is telling the truth about the salary and it is a promotion of sorts in my eyes at least. Im concerned about getting use to the all night driving and the responsibility of pulling doubles. I think im just resisting change tho. Im kinda set in my ways. Tell him i said good luck and good luck to u too.
Greetings: I am a former Independent Contract owner operator commercial driver for Fed Ex Custom Critical. I've always heard how well UPS Commercial Tractor Trailer drivers are compensated and taken care of while on the road. I currently have a Class A CDL from the state of Texas with HazMat, Tanker, Double/Triples and Passenger endorsement. I currently reside in the Houston Texas area and I am looking to start a commercial driving career with UPS. Does UPS hire qualified CDL drivers who have not been previously employed by UPS? Is there a contact person at a UPS Houston Hub that I can contact to apply for a CDL driving position. Are there CDL Commercial driving employment opportunities that are open but not on the website. I've looked on UPS' official website and I've never seen an opening in the Houston area, however I always see CDL commercial drivers in the Houston area driving tractor trailers. Does anyone have any advise

Accuracy Enhancement of ASTER Global Digital Elevation Models Using ICESat Data

Abstract: Global Digital Elevation Models (GDEM) are considered very attractive for current research and application areas due to their free and wide range accessibility. The ASTER Global Digital Elevation Model exhibits the highest spatial resolution data of all global DEMs and it is generated for almost the whole globe. Unfortunately, ASTERGDEM data include many artifacts and height errors that decrease the quality and elevation accuracy significantly. This study provides a method for quality improvement of the ASTER GDEM data by correcting systematic height errors using ICESat laser altimetry data and removing artifacts and anomalies based on a segment-based outlier detection and elimination algorithm. Additionally, elevation errors within water bodies are corrected using a water mask produced from a high-resolution shoreline data set. Results indicate that the accuracy of the corrected ASTER GDEM is significantly improved and most artifacts are appropriately eliminated. Nevertheless, artifacts containing lower height values with respect to the neighboring ground pixels are not entirely eliminated due to confusion with some real non-terrain 3D objects. The proposed method is particularly useful for areas where other high quality DEMs such as SRTM are not available.

ASIA CREDIT CLOSE: HY, IG rally, Olam and CFG under pressure
SINGAPORE, Nov 29 (IFR) - Investment-grade and high-yield credit rallied in tandem today as Asia rode the optimistic wave started in the US overnight, where positive comments by a key Republican lawmaker about averting the fiscal cliff brought New York stock markets back to black toward the end of the session.
The giddiness in the West and the lack of negative headlines on this side of the world buoyed the Hang Seng Index which saw a 1% gain today, its first this week.
Similar forces squeezed spreads for investment-grade credits. Cash bonds were seen tightening 2bp-3bp in the day, even as the yield on the 10-year US Treasury hardly moved since Wednesday. CDS was also tighter and the Asia iTraxx IG Series 18 index was about 2bp narrower by the time London investors were walking in, quoted at 112bp.
Most of the actual flow, however, was seen on the new bonds issued by Mongolia. The 2018s ended the session quoted at 101.00 mid-market after having priced at 99.996 overnight, while the 2022s were quoted at 101.50 having priced at par.
The USD500m shorter tranche saw USD6bn in demand and the USD1bn longer bond saw USD9bn in orders. This had some speculating that part of the buying in Asia was driven by underallocated institutional investors, even though some of the buy-side here complained that the final pricing was too tight.
High-yield was high on the agenda overall, with plenty of buying seen across the board. Retail investors were seen favouring Chinese property credits, especially after Moody's moved many of the bellwhethers in the sector to stable from negative. Some of the benchmarks were up by as much as USD1.
This applied to Gemdale's recently issued bonds, which closed the session at 104.00-105.00 and to Evergrande, which ended at 108.00-109.00. Even beaten down Soho China got a boost from the sudden interest in the sector, with its 2017s ending the session some USD1 stronger in price terms at 98.00-99.00, while the 2022s closed at 97.00/98.00.
On the flip-side, retail investors unloaded some of their holdings of Olam bonds as the controversy with Muddy Waters drags on. The 2017 dollar-denominated bonds ended the session about USD1 weaker as a result of this selling, quoted at 95.00.
China Fishery's bonds also came under pressure after news that the Russian government could bar its parent Pacific Andes from procuring fish in the country. The bonds were already weighed down by the company's worse than expected earnings report earlier this month, and dropped some USD2 more last quoted with a very wide bid-ask spread of 78.00-82.00.

Dunbeath (from Scottish Gaelic Dùn Bheithe)[1] is a village in south-east Caithness, Scotland on the A9 road.
It was the birthplace of Neil Gunn (1891–1973), author of The Silver Darlings, Highland River etc., many of whose novels are set in Dunbeath and its Strath. Dunbeath has a very rich archaeological landscape, the site of numerous Iron Age brochs and an early medieval monastic site (see Alex Morrison's archaeological survey, "Dunbeath: A Cultural Landscape".)
Of Dunbeath's landscape, Neil Gunn wrote: "These small straths, like the Strath of Dunbeath, have this intimate beauty. In boyhood we get to know every square yard of it. We encompass it physically and our memories hold it. Birches, hazel trees for nutting, pools with trout and an occasionally visible salmon, river-flats with the wind on the bracken and disappearing rabbit scuts, a wealth of wild flower and small bird life, the soaring hawk, the unexpected roe, the ancient graveyard, thoughts of the folk who once lived far inland in straths and hollows, the past and the present held in a moment of day-dream." (Neil M Gunn, 'My Bit of Britain', 1941.).
There is an excellent community museum/landscape interpretation centre at the old village school - see http://www.dunbeath-heritage.org.uk.
Prince George, Duke of Kent, was killed when his Short Sunderland flying boat crashed on a Dunbeath hillside on 25 August 1942.[2]
Notable people[edit]
Dr John N Sutherland, graduate of Glasgow, St Andrews and Edinburgh Universities, former Professor of Virtual Reality at Gifu University in Japan, founder of video games as an academic discipline,[3][4][5] was brought up in Dunbeath and attended Dunbeath Primary School and Dunbeath Parish Church.

I went to the county building today to drop off my ballot, voting against the latest tax levy. It seems like every year we are asked to support yet another levy, for worthy causes such as school building upgrades, UNM-LA and the like. My husband and I work very hard for our money and are not upper-echelon labbies that bring home the big bucks … these tax hikes have a real impact on our budget. In the past five years, my taxes have increased $616. The latest levy would increase that another $168. We do not have unlimited funds, and even if we did, I do not trust the county to use my tax dollars wisely. Take a gander at the "Taj Majal" projects we've had thrust upon us in recent years: The White Rock Visitor's Center, the Justice Center, the new Municipal Building, the Golf Course Clubhouse, Los Alamos High School and Los Alamos Middle School are all good examples. It seems that every project must be grander than the one before, and the sky is apparently the limit.
I have joined with many in our community including leaders of the local Democratic and Republican parties in supporting the University of New Mexico-Los Alamos mil levy. As a retiree, I benefit from the training our EMS folks get at UNM-LA. We all benefit from the fire science courses our fire department personnel take at UNM-LA. Most of all the presence of this high quality institution makes Los Alamos more attractive to the "best and brightest" that the Los Alamos National Laboratory needs to attract to compete effectively for future research and development funds. The value of our house depends upon a vigorous and healthy LANL. Please vote "Yes" for our community, our college. Morris Pongratz Los Alamos
The Public Regulation Commission is preparing to rule on how much New Mexico invests in renewable energy, and clean energy advocates argue that the PRC's proposed changes would harm renewable energy development in the state. Looking at the facts, we have to agree. New Mexico is the second-sunniest state in the country, but we currently get less than two percent of our electricity from the sun, lagging behind cloudy states like New Jersey. Our state needs to move toward a new, thriving clean energy economy, and not stay tethered to fossil fuels, which soak up billions in federal subsidies[1] – over five times as much as all renewables combined[2] – while polluting our air and water. Our current policies have helped grow the amount of solar energy in New Mexico from less than 1 megawatt in 2007 to almost 200 megawatts now. Judging by the number of people who spoke in favor of renewables at the PRC's hearing in Santa Fe on Tuesday, New Mexicans clearly agree that developing our solar potential is smart for our state. We urge the PRC to leave renewable energy policies in place, not cut them off before they reach their full potential. Dominick Lawton Environment New Mexico
In a speech marking the 50th anniversary of the historic march on Washington, President Obama said "change does not come from Washington, but to Washington." We agree. Last week Americans submitted more than one million comments urging President Obama to protect our national forests, parks, and the drinking water they provide from dirty gas drilling. Fracking — a dirty and dangerous method of drilling for oil and gas — has wrought widespread environmental damage across the country, including in New Mexico, turning treasured landscapes into industrial zones and contaminating drinking water sources. Now, the oil and gas industry is pushing to expose the best of our natural heritage to fracking, including Otero Mesa and outside Chaco Canyon National Historic Park. We are looking to President Obama to recognize the change knocking on Washington's door. We, along with a growing number of Americans, urge President Obama to protect our forests, our parks, and the drinking water sources for thousands of New Mexicans from this dirty drilling. Sanders Moore Environment New Mexico
After being away from Los Alamos all summer, the progress in our town comes across as really impressive. Work on the Trinity Site seems really serious. David Griggs of the county staff, gave me my first tour of the new County Municipal Building. I haven't had time to look closely at the pond redevelopment project, but it is good to see it moving ahead. It is also good to see a real building growing at the golf course that also will provide a large space and kitchen facility for the community to use for special occasions. When these wonderful projects are considered together with the county improvements over the past years, I can't help but feel that Los Alamos has turned the corner to the dynamic future that we would like to see. The college needs to be part of this. Los Alamos has benefitted from the college in many different ways over the years. As Los Alamos has changed, the college has changed as well and the evolution continues. As Los Alamos changes further, let's provide the support that enables this asset to grow in its contribution to a dynamic new community. Your community needs your vote to enable the college to help drive the new future of Los Alamos. Nona Bowman Los Alamos
Los Alamos voters have a rare opportunity to consider a tax increase proposal that actually has sound justification, the UNM-LA mil levy increase. No community owes more to education nor values it more highly than ours. UNM-LA is an important local educational resource. It does its job well. Its graduation and job placement rates far exceed state averages. UNM-LA's operating mil levy has not increased since its founding 30 years ago. Alone, that is not a valid argument for the proposed hike. Their revenue from the existing levy has increased with inflation, as have their expenses. The real question is "what has changed?" UNM-LA's scope of instruction has expanded. Among other new missions, for example, they now provide college credit (dual credit) classes to high school students at NO COST to the students. In effect, they have become part of K-12 education but receive no funding to do so. At the same time, UNM-LA's funding from the state has declined by approximately one-third in recent years. It is financially strapped. In effect, the state has unwittingly put more control of this component of education in local hands - where it should be.
The Democratic Party of Los Alamos County joins Chairman Gibson and other local Republicans in support of the UNM-LA Mil Levy. When I graduated from high school in upstate New York, I chose to attend the local community college for my first two years. Classmates came back from their far flung institutions with exciting tales of huge lecture halls and the anonymity of being at a large school. More than a few returned prematurely from their college experiences, not yet ready for such dramatic changes. In contrast, my experience was one of small classes and enthusiastic teachers. My first college professors were focused on teaching rather than publication and research. I did not feel like just one of the new batch of freshman. Our 17 year old son started classes at UNM-LA this month. He returns home each day talking about inspiring and engaged instructors who care about the subjects they teach and their students. In our rapidly changing world, it's comforting to know that some things endure. I picture him in 30 years looking back with fondness on these first college years. It makes me thankful that he has the same opportunity that I had.
"A shortage of water is a major obstacle facing the ski resort," said the representative of the Ski Club. Well, welcome to New Mexico. A shortage of water is a major obstacle facing the entire state and neighboring states. And wasting water on entertainment like skiing is selling out the future of Los Alamos for a bit of fun today. If Los Alamos could reduce water use to a sustainable level, we, with our superlative and exceptional water supply, could guarantee water for generations to come. Instead, water is wasted on flower baskets and ski hills, bringing the day closer when we as a community are truly short of water. This is not about skiing, this is not about pretty hanging flowers. This is about whether we citizens of Los Alamos care enough about the future of this community to keep our water use within the rate of supply. Make no mistake: Snowmaking is consumptive, meaning that it uses water, losing it to the atmosphere. This is Hydrology 101. In Water Resources 101 we learn that water supply cannot sustainably exceed demand. It's all simple mass balance. We either live within our means or we live at the expense of the future of our community. We have the choice. Please do not exacerbate our water stress.

In regard to the recent gun show at the Pueblo Complex, I'm not sure of the actual wording of the school gun ban but if the wording includes the words 'school property' then it would seem that the gun show should not take place at the Pueblo Complex. Other school owned properties leased by LANL do not allow guns to be brought onto the premises by the public or workers (except by security guards). The gun show supporters however, were incensed the moment a question was raised about the appropriateness of the venue. Rather than thoughtful commentary about appropriate use of school property, we get worn out phrases like 'guns don't kill people, people kill people' and 'only people with mental illness are committing mass shootings'. The facts are however that the majority of shootings in America simply wouldn't happen without the wide availability of firearms. Slate's (an online magazine) gun-death tracker estimates that 7,242 people have died as a result of gun violence in America since the Newtown massacre. This number doesn't include gun suicides. What can be done about this? Maybe not using public school owned properties for gun shows is a start.

Wow. So much verbiage attacking me while defending the precious UNM-LA. Between Messrs. Pawlak, Sheehey, Izraelevitz, et al….the South Park Republican in me feels like I'm in an episode of "Pummel the Apostate." Must have hit a big nerve, here in New Mexico's smallest county, with a population under 18K (down 7 percent+ since 2000, median age over 50 by 2020), and a budget approaching $200 million a year (excludes education). "Methinks the Lady doth protesteth too much." Wise up guys, denial is not a river in Egypt. If we don't start thinking out of the box, Los Alamos will become a geriatric petting zoo. William T.

Mercury Tops California Department Of Insurance List With The Fewest Number Of Customer Complaints
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 24, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Mercury ranks number one according to the recently-released California Department of Insurance (CDI) auto insurance consumer complaint study. The study ranked the 50 largest automobile insurers conducting business in the Golden State, and Mercury Casualty Company (MCC) and California Automobile Insurance Company (CAIC) finished first and second, respectively. Not far behind was the other Mercury subsidiary, Mercury Insurance Company (MIC), which finished eighth.
"Mercury provides millions of Californians with affordable insurance and exceptional customer service," said Mercury CEO Gabe Tirador. "The California Department of Insurance study validates our blueprint of service through trust, honesty and customer advocacy, and reinforces why we're able to have a customer retention rate of 96 percent."
MCC and CAIC each received zero justified complaints. MIC received a 0.8 ratio (based on the number of valid complaints per 100,000 policies or per $1 million in premium) with only 12 justified complaints out of more than 1.5 million policies. The CDI, which reviewed consumer grievances for excessive rates, false advertising, claim delays and denial of claims, created the study "to assist insurance consumers as they shop for insurance."
"We want all of our customers to know we'll be here to help when they need us most," said Mercury Chief Claims Officer Joanna Moore. "Studies like this show that Mercury cares about its customers. I'm proud of our team and their ability to put our customers first."

CBNNews.com - JERUSALEM, Israel - In response to a projected deficit of medical doctors, Nefesh B'Nefesh (soul to soul) has launched an initiative to encourage medical doctors to make aliyah (immigrate to Israel).
Nefesh B'Nefesh, an organization that helps North American and British Jews with the aliyah process, will be working in tandem with the Health Ministry and the Immigration and Absorption Ministry to avert the projected shortage of doctors over the next decade.
According to the Council for Higher Education's Planning and Budgeting Committee, today's ratio of 3.5 medical doctors per one thousand people is expected to drop to less than 2.5 per thousand over a 10-year period.
The aliyah initiative provides an initial fellowship for newly arrived physicians and monthly income supplements during their first two years in Israel, totaling some $60,000.
"Nefesh B'Nefesh recognizes the seriousness of this national need and is honored to be able to leverage our existing infrastructure to strengthen the medical community here," said the program's co-founder and executive director Rabbi Yehoshua Fass.
Israeli Minister of Health Yaacov Ben Yizri praised the joint initiative.
"We welcome this vital initiative, not only because of the importance of aliyah, but also because of the expected shortage of doctors in Israel in the coming years," he said.
"The shortage of doctors anticipated over the next few years compels the Ministry of Immigrant Absorption to join this initiative and allocate funds to ensure physicians' successful absorption into the Israeli health system," said Minister of Immigrant Absorption Yaacov Edery, who would like to see Israel maintain the high level of medical practice in the country.

Santander faces fine after FSA puts banks to the test
Regulator's 'mystery shopper' exercise reveals industry still making basic mistakes
Wednesday 13 February 2013
Banks were embroiled in yet another scandal last night after the City watchdog found that one in four bank and building society financial advisers provided poor advice when approached by mystery shoppers.
It is understood that Santander could now face a heavy fine after being referred to enforcement by the Financial Services Authority. The bank may shut down its advice business, after announcing a strategic review on the same day the FSA unveiled its findings.
Five other financial institutions have been ordered to improve.
The watchdog said it was "disappointed" that basic mistakes were still apparently widespread across the industry.
Clive Adamson, the director of supervision, said: "Given the previous guidance we have issued and the enforcement action we have taken against firms in the past, it is disappointing that some advisers in the retail banking sector continue to make basic financial planning errors."
While he was pleased that companies had taken swift action to remedy the situation, he said they faced close scrutiny to ensure they did what they had promised.
The significance of the review is underlined by the fact that it is the first the regulator has published since its payment protection insurance (PPI) mystery shopping exercise in September 2008. That uncovered a major financial scandal whose cost to the industry has been estimated at as much as £20bn.
The Financial Conduct Authority, which will be taking over much of the FSA's powers, is likely to carry out similar exercises. Martin Wheatley, who will head the new regulator, has repeatedly warned the industry that he wants to see it providing "good outcomes" for consumers.
In one case described by the FSA a company was approached by a man asking for advice on how to invest a lump sum of £30,000 for three to four years. He had £9,000 of debt that he was repaying at high levels of interest, but the adviser urged him to put the whole of the lump sum into an investment which would have returned less than the interest on his debt.
Neither the FSA nor Santander were prepared to confirm that the bank's advice arm was the one facing enforcement action. But Santander's advice service has been causing it problems for some time. In December the company ordered 800 advisers to undertake intensive retraining amid fears that staff would struggle to meet new rules introduced as part of the FSA's Retail Distribution Review.
A Santander UK spokesperson said of the review: "We are considering the findings in the context of the significant actions we took in 2012 to prepare for the post-RDR world. We continue to believe it is important to offer customers access to a broad range of financial products which are suitable to their needs and individual situations, and we are working towards that objective."
While the review is under way the bank will not pursue new business, although it will continue to provide advice to existing customers with maturing investments.
Santander said it had consulted with unions before making the announcement but insisted that no staff were at risk of redundancy "at this time".

This is an easy 'paper kaleidoscope' (not one of the ones you look through) that is fun for young children to put together.
Sharra says: "Keep in mind kaleidoscopes work with three mirrors inside. These mirrors reflect back and forth creating 6 segments or views of one original triangular area. The views mirror each other and line up in such a way as to create a beautifully symmetric pattern from anything you are looking at through the scope. Some scopes include colored pieces of plastic at the bottom of the scope. Hence my idea to simply use colored shapes children could recognize: square, rectangle, triangle, circle, heart, oval, diamond. What I have done here is create one pie slice and a mirror image of that slice and repeated them three times. The magic is in how you glue the slices together. Here's the one Stephanie did for her alphabet book. I printed the label for her. This was in the days before she started writing much."

The first official Watchmen trailer – which will be attached to prints of The Dark Knight and, we're told, in IMAX – is now up over at Apple , in glorious HD.
And how is it, you ask? Well… it's actually… wonderful. It looks amazing and if half of what Zack Snyder has been promising has been brought to the screen, Watchmen will be one of the most memorable films of 2009. Because yes, you really will have to wait until next year to see this and the trailer will make the delay that much more painful. But to help ease the pain, why not check out
Entertainment Weekly's
coverage, or
see Snyder himself
talking about a geek-baiting moment in the trailer itself…

The idea of the Rhythm Intensive is to use sounds from around the world as a creative springboard. Cherry, the consummate musical explorer, is an ideal teacher. He can make a musical connection to almost any sound coming from almost anywhere.
Cherry currently lives in San Francisco, where he moved to work with the experimental musical group the Hieroglyphics Ensemble, and where he also plays with the quartet MultiKulti. He's also involved in theater projects with the Latin community and several other enterprises. And Don Cherry hasn't stopped traveling and exploring. He'll be arriving in Miami straight from Bombay, India.
DON CHERRY performs with Karl Berger, Ingrid Sertso, Peter Apfelbaum from the Hieroglyphics Ensemble, and students from the Rhythm Intensive at 9:00 p.m. Friday; Nana Vasconcelos performs at 8:00 p.m. Saturday at the Cameo Theater, 1445 Washington Ave., Miami Beach, 672-5202. Tickets are $10 advance, $12.50 at the door.

I don't think there is any problem with them from a voltage perspective. The problem, IMO, is current. Look at the beef in a 50A range plug and receptacle then look at a Switchcraft version of speakON also apparently rated rated 50A. Either someone is sandbagging or someone is stretching things. In pro audio a common speaker load is 4 ohms. Any idea how much power there is if you had 50A into a 4 ohm load? That's 10,000 watts. There are a few, but not many 10kW audio power amps. Thing is though, with actual music, an audio power amp rated 10kW will only be putting out about 1250 watts on average/continuous if it was running right up to the verge of clipping. 1250W at 4 ohms is 18 amps. 18 amps I can buy based on the size of the plug and contacts.
Drinking: Russian Imperial Stout Drinking: Pre-prohibition Lager In-process: Another batch of Pre-prohibition Lager Next up: Scottish Wee Heavy
So I decided to email Neutrik and see if they would enlighten me the the actual difference between the SpeakON connectors and the PowerCON connectors. And as to why the the SpeakON should not be used as AC mains. Here is what I got back
"speakON has never been UL recognized for power applications. (Indeed, we have never submitted speakON for power, since we have powerCON.) Any applications that use speakON for power could never be U.L. listed. One other note about powerCON TRUE1s rating of 20A in the U.S. and only 16A in Europe. Yes, this is confusing! The difference arises from the fact that there is no 20A certification standard in Europe. In Europe, a power connector can be certified to 16A or to higher amperages (like 32A) which powerCON TRUE1 does not support. By contrast, UL does have a 20A certification standard. Thats why powerCON TRUE1 can be legally certified to 20A in the U.S. but only 16A in the rest of the world."
I can only imagine that the marketing department might have been behind the decision to develop powerCON. Why give a current product a new use by getting it UL certified when you can make a "new" product that is basically the same thing. I don't think this is 100% the case with Neutrik, as they did make some good changes from speakON to powerCON, but I have to imagine it influenced the decision to create powerCON. I would love to hear someone with some good knowledge on the topic weigh in as well.
I've been in the pro audio business for about 20 years. I can remember when the Neutrik SpeakOn connectors started to become really popular. There is a 4 pole connector (NL4FC or NL4FX) and an 8 pole version (NL8). They were much cheaper than the other standard at the time, the EP/AP connector. The EP/AP connectors had a higher current rating and were usually made of metal bodies and would cost about $15-20 per connector. Once the speakon connectors came out, much like the home brewing community seems to have, a lot of audio guys figured out that they could use SpeakOn as a low cost AC mains connector. Problem was that it isn't UL listed for AC usage and people could also plug a 8 Ohm speaker cabinet into 120VAC receptacle usually resulting in bad things. Thus Neutrik saw the application and responded with the Powercon. The reason they never would've submitted the SpeakOn for UL listing as an AC connector is simple...its a loudspeaker connector.

Rest in Peace brother
It's tombstone will read "Lost in battle".
Join the cause and get a signature with a phrase of quiet protest.
this was a good flash overall. i voted to the newgrounds parodies collection.
Thanks. =D
I hope it gets in.
Those maniacs!
They blew it up! They blew it all up!
You damn dirty redesign!
Nice tribute flash, glad someone made one.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but is the small yellow tank some sort of reference to something from Newgrounds a long time ago? If not, then I don't get it. In my opinion, it's not humorous at all.

The full CGI rumble between Batman and Deathstroke has been released by Warner Brothers, and it's full of fist punches, broken blades, sniper shots, dockyards and villainous boasting. They've already revealed that Deathstroke is to be a "fully playable character" in challenge mode if you get the Deathstroke pre-order pack. Batman: Arkham Origins releases October 25th. Much to the joy of fans, especially Arkham Asylum/City, actor Kevin Conroy will be continuing his voiceover work for Batman after all. Enjoy the CGI ruckus below. |
