(Read article summary)Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice joins Colin Powell in protesting claims made by Dick Cheney in his memoir.
Kevin Lamarque/Reuters
The heads are still exploding from former vice president Dick Cheney's recently published memoir.
The latest blow-up, on Wednesday, came from former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.
Rice spoke out against several claims about her in Cheney's book, "In My Time: A Personal and Professional Memoir," saying that she viewed it as an "attack on my integrity."
In an interview with Reuters Wednesday, Rice protested Cheney's suggestion that she had misled President George W. Bush about nuclear diplomacy
with North Korea.
"I kept the president fully and completely informed about every in and out of the negotiations with the North Koreans," Rice told Reuters in her first public comments on the matter. "You can talk about policy differences without suggesting that your colleague somehow misled the president. You know, I don't appreciate the attack on my integrity that that implies."

Britain chooses low-profile lawmaker for EU Commission job
LONDON (Reuters) – Prime Minister David Cameron on Tuesday nominated Jonathan Hill, a relatively unknown lawmaker who backs his leader's European renegotiation strategy, to become Britain's next European commissioner.
Cameron has promised to try to renegotiate Britain's ties with the European Union and hold a membership referendum in 2017 if he wins a national election next year. Hill, a 53-year-old lord, is expected to play an important role in that process.
UK's Labour look to shed 'anti-business' label with tax proposals
LONDON, June 29 (Reuters) – Britain's opposition Labour
party will on Monday attempt to cast off accusations that its
left-leaning policies have made it 'anti-business' by proposing
tax changes designed to increase long-term investment and foster
greater competition.
Since Labour announced plans to force energy firms to freeze
their prices last September, businesses have become increasingly
concerned about how much political intervention they would face
if, as a narrow lead in opinion polls currently suggests, the
party wins an election next May.
First UK poll after Juncker battle shows rising support for EU exit
LONDON (Reuters) – Public support for Britain to leave the EU is growing again after falling to a multi-year low, according to the first survey published since EU leaders nominated Jean-Claude Juncker to become the next president of the European Commission.
British Prime Minister David Cameron openly campaigned to stop Juncker getting the top EU job, but last Friday lost the final vote by 26-2. [ID:nL6N0P815O] He warned at the time that choosing Juncker, an old-style EU federalist, would make it harder to keep Britain in the European Union.
Britain publishes draft laws fleshing out pensions reform
LONDON, June 26 (Reuters) – Britain took a step closer to
reforming pensions by publishing draft legislation on Thursday
that permits collective workplace pension schemes, despite
criticism of the plans by the industry.
The new rules, which were outlined earlier this year and
should become law before a general election next May, will allow
pension providers for the first time to pool the assets bought
by fund members to reduce risks and cut costs.
Britain pledges to fight for reform to EU financial lawmaking
LONDON, June 25 (Reuters) – Britain said on Wednesday it
would push the European Union to improve the way it sets
financial rules, promising to protect London's role as a global
financial sector and demanding better assessments of the impact
of new regulations.
Nicky Morgan, newly-appointed minister in charge of
financial services, said she would lead a major drive to improve
the EU's legislative process and pledged to keep on challenging
rules that Britain disagreed with.
UK seeks to delay EU decision on Juncker, says wants consensus
LONDON (Reuters) – Britain is trying to delay selection of a new European Commission President, British officials said on Friday, seeking further discussion of an alternative to the former Luxembourg premier Jean-Claude Juncker London sees as a bar to EU reform.
The effort comes days before a meeting of EU leaders in Belgium on Thursday and Friday. European diplomats say momentum is building to use the occasion to choose Juncker for one of Europe's most influential policy jobs.
Premier Li says China's economy won't suffer hard landing
LONDON (Reuters) – Chinese Premier Li Keqiang said on Wednesday that China's economy would not suffer a hard landing and would continue to grow at a medium to high pace in the long term without strong stimulus.
Li made the comments during a speech in London's financial district on the final day of a visit which has yielded trade and investment deals worth 14 billion pounds ($23.76 billion) and strengthened Britain's bid to become the dominant centre for the Western trade in offshore yuan CNH=.
Hard choice for British business – risk of EU exit or tougher regulation
LONDON, June 18 (Reuters) – When Britain elects a new
government in May next year, business faces a difficult choice:
Conservatives who could pull the country out of the European
Union, or Labour waving the threat of tougher regulation.
If the Conservatives are elected, major exporters and banks
fret that Britain's EU membership could be in danger, posing
major risks to their role in Britain's $2.5 trillion economy,
the world's sixth largest.
Gas and currency deals cap Chinese premier's first UK visit
LONDON, June 17 (Reuters) – Britain and China signed deals
on Tuesday worth more than 14 billion pounds ($23.5 billion)
during a visit by Chinese Premier Li Keqiang, with energy and
finance dominating the trade agenda.
In a trip aimed at deepening commercial ties between the
world's second-largest economy and Europe's financial capital
and drawing a line under a row over Tibet, Li met Queen
Elizabeth and held talks with Prime Minister David Cameron.
UK to re-open Iran embassy in diplomatic breakthrough
LONDON (Reuters) – Britain said on Tuesday it would re-open its embassy in Iran "within months," after a hiatus of more than two and a half years, a diplomatic breakthrough that underscores the West's desire to secure Tehran's help in Iraq and elsewhere.
The move came after the United States, a close British ally, said it may launch air strikes and act jointly with arch-enemy Iran to shore up the Iraqi government, after a rampage by Sunni Islamist insurgents that has scrambled alliances in the Middle East.

Yes add the table sugar to the boil...15 mins before the end should do.
Cool! I'm going to do this. Im going to use regular oats from the grocery store. I need to cook these before I put them in the mash, right?

Hey Loetz, How did this turn out? Am interested in a single hop NS IPA myself so am interested to hear how it went.
I was very unimpressed with the Nelson IPA from Widmer. Not sure if that speaks to the hop or the brewery (which routinely brews sub-par beers, at least for Portland standards)

FERGUSON, Mo. (KMOV.com) – The family of Michael Brown held a press conference Monday morning to release the preliminary results of an autopsy they requested separate from the police investigation.
The autopsy, done by Dr. Michael Baden, found there were at least six gunshot wounds and two bullets may have reentered Brown's body. Baden said Brown was shot in the apex of his head, above the right eyebrow, top part of the right arm, middle of right arm, forearm and in the palm of his right hand. Baden could not speculate the order of the gunshots that struck Brown.
Baden says Brown could have survived all of the gunshot wounds except for the one to the top of his head, which entered his brain.
According to Baden, the results of the autopsy are consistent with eyewitnesses accounts of what happened on Canfield Dr.
During the press conference, it was revealed that Brown's family asked Baden if their son suffered, Baden responded that he did not.
Baden said there were no signs of a struggle found on Brown's body but there were marks on his face which are consistent with falling.
Baden says he is still waiting to see the x-rays and toxicology reports, which were done before the first autopsy. He also said he wants to examine the clothes Brown was wearing at the time of the shooting to see if there is any gunshot residue on them.
The first autopsy was performed by St. Louis County police and limited information from that autopsy has been made public. Dr. Mary Case, the St. Louis County Medical Examiner, said Brown suffered gunshot wounds to his head and chest. Case did not say which shot killed Brown, but said either had the capability to do so. A third autopsy will be done by the FBI as part of a Federal investigation into the death of Brown.
Michael Brown was unarmed when he was shot and killed on Saturday, August 9 by Darren Wilson, a six year veteran with the Ferguson Police Department.

EPPD identifies alleged Starbucks iPad thief
POSTED: Thursday, August 14, 2014 - 9:06am
UPDATED: Friday, August 15, 2014 - 3:16pm
El Paso, TX (KTSM) — El Paso Police have identified the 18-year-old who allegedly stole an iPad at a crowded west El Paso Starbucks on Wednesday morning as Carlos Guerrero, of west El Paso.
Police say that Guerrero walked into the Starbucks at the corner of Mesa and Sunland Park just before 9 a.m. and ran off with an iPad 5 with a detachable keyboard. Several customers inside of the Starbucks alerted others to the theft.
Many customers inside the store attempted to stop Guerrero before he ran out of the store, but were unsuccessful.
Julio Diaz, who was sitting by the exit at the time of the alleged theft was able to chase Guerrero outside of the store and recover the iPad and keyboard and was also able to take the keys to Guerrero's motorbike according to witnesses on the scene.
That didn't stop Guerrero from attempting to leave the scene though. According to police, another group of Good Samaritan customers were able to chase Guerrero down and bring him back to the Starbucks where they turned him over to officers with the El Paso Police Department.
Guerrero was arrested and charged with theft over $500 and less than $1,500 from an elderly person over 65. His bonds totaled $2,500 and he was able to post bond early Thursday morning.

Aconcagua: Nugent & Team Rest Day at Camp 1
Posted by: Billy Nugent, Walter Hailes, Katrina Bloemsma | January 14, 2014
Categories: *Expedition Dispatches *Aconcagua
Elevation: 16,200'
The rumor mill was definitely flying around the mountain yesterday about some big, bad weather system coming in next weekend… Luckily it has been pushed back out of the extended forecast and our intrepid team has been able to stick to our prescribed acclimatization schedule. Which means we're resting today! Laying around in the tent at over 16,000' isn't as exciting as it sounds but the rest will serve us well as we climb higher tomorrow. We are in good spirits and hopeful that the weather will cooperate as we move in to striking distance over the next couple days.
Laying around, eating jamon y queso, drinking coffee…
It's a grand life,

Unbiased Reviews by Real People
This phone has many ups and few downs. I love the screen size and dependability. I would recommend putting on a clear cover so you can show the nice white backside of this. Be sure to get the old software so the phone runs faster. If you go with the 4 then it will run slow. Apps for apply are better than any other brand... It never freezes, or slows down. Battery is not very good on this phone, be sure to get a battery saver app so you can figure out how to save your battery, however it just plain sucks. For the money I feel this is the best smart phone you can buy... The next best would be the 4 and the 4S. I have spoken with so many others with other brand names that have many many issues with there phone. Apple is WONDERFUL, do not even consider anything else. I would recommend going on ebay for a screen cover, they are like 1.00 for three with free shipping. Also Marshalls has great 6 dollar covers. Be sure to get your bank apps so you can transfer funds and check your accounts through your phone. Apple offers bank apps for almost every bank out there.

AROUND THE WORLD (FOX44) – Brazil, Chevron is claiming about 500-barrels of oil has leaked out of an offshore well since last week. But local officials think it's more like a thousand and they haven't been told if the hole's been plugged. Outside a Chevron office in Brazil protestors say they don't want to see another oil spill like ours in the Gulf of Mexico.
Peru – A skeleton has researchers baffled. That's because it has an oddly shaped head. It's triangular with oversized eye cavities. Local media are reporting it's an alien. Others are saying it simply belonged to a child with a weird shaped head.
Mexico – Flight attendants stripping down to pull their airlines out of bankruptcy. The calendar they posed for is a little too risqué to show you. The pinups are hoping the sale of them can help 85-hundred of their coworkers get back on planes.
Japan – Tokyo's Sky Tree has set a new Guinness record as the world's tallest tower.
The broadcasting tower stands at 2,080-feet tall. Local leaders are hoping it will help boost tourism.
England – Lebron James hung out with hoop-lovers at the London School of Basketball. One of the kids got a once in a lifetime shot to take the Miami Heat star on one on one. And will forever have the memory of getting dunked on. The crowed loved it though.

SBA Administrator Karen Mills approves of changes to the law that expand opportunities for woman-owned small businesses. (AP photo)
Agencies may have more opportunities to award contracts to small firms owned by women because of the fiscal 2013 National Defense Authorization Act.
The NDAA removed the thresholds limiting the award price of a contract to be set aside for a competition among small firms owned by women. Prior to the new law, woman-owned small businesses (WOSBs) could not receive a set-aside contract whose value exceeded $6.5 million for manufacturing contracts and $4 million for all other contracts.
Without the limitations, WOSBs will have access to more contracts due to changes to the Small Business Administration's Women-Owned Small Business Federal Contract Program.
The changes to the law made in the defense bill may allow agencies to boost their annual scores for setting contracts aside for women. Small firms owned by women received $16.8 billion in fiscal 2011, or 3.98 percent of all federal contracting. The goal is 5 percent. In fiscal 2010, those firms received 4.04 percent.
SBA Administrator Karen Mills said the government is allowing a more inclusive view of entrepreneurship. Women own 30 percent of all small businesses today, compared to just 5 percent four decades ago.
"As one of the fastest growing sectors of small-business owners in the country, opening the door for women to compete for more federal contracts is a win-win," she said.
SBA is working with the Office of Federal Procurement Policy on working the statutory changes into the Federal Acquisition Regulation.

NBN Co advised against buying Telstra's copper
PUBLISHED: 03 Dec 2013 00:23:00 | UPDATED: 03 Dec 2013 04:51:18PUBLISHED: 02 Dec 2013 PRINT EDITION: 03 Dec 2013The Coalition government is planning to connect nodes on street corners with fibre optic cabling and use Telstra's ageing phone lines to roll out faster broadband to homes and businesses the rest of the way. Photo: Peter Braig
James Hutchinson
Former NBN Co executives urged the incoming Coalition government to rent, rather than buy, Telstra's copper network as part of a plan to change the national broadband network rollout.
An analysis of the Coalition's broadband policy by the company, and obtained by Fairfax Media, warned it could be saddled with more than $1 billion in annual maintenance costs and face millions more in technology upgrades if it took control of the existing copper network.
The Coalition government is planning to connect nodes on street corners with fibre optic cabling and use the ageing phone lines to roll out faster broadband to homes and businesses the rest of the way.
It is currently attempting to renegotiate the $11.2 billion agreement with Telstra to gain access to the network, with Communications Minister Malcolm Turnbull indicating a preference for buying the assets. But NBN Co said Telstra should maintain control of the copper network, and continue to repair it, while leasing it to NBN Co.
"In the absence of other viable solutions, a managed services agreement is NBN Co's preferred option to carry wholesale services on the Telstra copper network," NBN Co said.
"Due to the significant complexity and cost associated with transitioning and integrating the workforce and management systems to operate and maintain the Telstra [copper network] as an NBN Co asset."
The document was prepared by NBN Co's former management, which has since been replaced with a number of former Telstra executives.
It was presented following the election to NBN Co's board – of which only two members remain – and formed part of the department's incoming brief or "blue book" to Mr Turnbull.
Despite freedom of information requests, the Department of Communications has refused to release details of the blue book's contents.
The NBN Co analysis argued that the state of the copper network and the costs required to fix it for NBN's purposes were of a high risk to the project.
NBN Co executive chairman and former Telstra chief Ziggy Switkowski told a Senate committee hearing on Friday that the state of copper remained an unknown.
The analysis also warned that forecast revenues, vital to paying back the capital cost of the NBN, would be reduced by 30 per cent due to an inability to sell products on the slower, copper-based network.
Ovum research director David Kennedy said that NBN Co would likely pay for the copper maintenance costs regardless of whether it leased or bought the copper from Telstra. "Either Telstra maintains it and passes the cost onto NBN Co as part of the managed services agreement, or Telstra simply retains ownership and NBN Co shoulders responsibility."
Of greater concern, he argued, was the cost of upgrading the technology systems NBN Co would need to operate and deliver services over copper. By leasing the copper, NBN Co may be able to escape some of those costs.
"To be realistic, software integration projects are amongst the most difficult IT projects around," he said.
"If they buy it they're going to have to build their own IT system."
Revelations of the analysis come as NBN Co's new management, led by Dr Switkowski, submitted a draft version of its anticipated strategic review to the government on Monday, setting out the current state of the rollout and recommending ways to finish the $20.4 billion project.
It is expected the plan will include, among other recommendations, a push to increase the extent to which the copper network beyond the Coalition's initial plans.
However, parts of the review are likely to remain confidential due to commercial information and a spokesman for Mr Turnbull was unable to say when the review would be released, if at all.

Lite Brite Cube
A few days ago, I was sitting in front of my computer, meticulously scrutinizing a friend of a friend's newly posted Facebook pictures. My two children, Charlie (age 5) and Lilly (age 3½) were playing sweetly in Lilly's room. As I continued the diligent task of cyber-stalking my friends and acquaintances, a strange noise came from Lilly's room … no, make that eight strange noises.
It's not often that my daughter sneezes, but eight consecutive sneezes were unheard of in our household. Not thinking too much of it (and not getting out of my comfy computer chair), I casually asked if she was okay. I was definitely not prepared for her nasally sounding response—"No, I can't get this Lite Brite thing out of my nose!"
My husband, Ben, who had been napping on the couch in our computer room, was in Lilly's room faster than you can say "Hasbro". He scooped up our plastic peg-wielding daughter, carried her into the adjoining bathroom, and laid her on the cold countertop. Under the light of the bathroom's hideous fluorescent bulbs, we examined the nasal passage in question and tried to formulate a plan. Ben proposed a pair of tweezers to solve this little dilemma; I felt the situation necessitated a trip to the emergency room. Before we had time to deliberate, Lilly sneezed again and to both of our amazement out shot a little, green Lite Brite peg.
If your child has had a similar experience, don't be alarmed. Many pediatricians recognize this nasal behavior as a normal stage of development. In fact, Associated Content recently published a list of the Top Ten Things Kids Stick Up Their Noses (crayons, beads and French fries make up the top three).
If you ever find yourself in this nosy situation, the National Institutes of Health recommend pressing lightly on the non-plugged side of the nose and asking the child to gently blow out the other nostril. If this method fails, call your pediatrician … or local Lite Brite consultant.

hello, nice work. i m wondering if you have developped a web site like this one for a car rental? i m interested for a car rental one.
Hi zbanzai,
Thanks for your interest.
I'm afraid I haven't, might be something I'll look into developing in the future though
Kind regards
Very nice job. My problem is just a folder where you downloaded the color theme. More colors are not necessarily found? However, there are different colors than the version on your live demo. I wonder why?
Kind regards
Hi emango,
Thanks for purchasing!
All the colour stylesheets can be found in "css/colours.css". You can change the stylesheet used by editing line 19 in each HTML file.
If you have any other questions open a support ticket and I'll be happy to help: http://quitenicestuff.ticksy.com/
Kind regards
Hello, I bought your template and I just integrate the part "booking" in another template that I customized. The problem, my knowledge is limited in programming your booking part. I wish to find someone to help me and finalize the booking part. I can remunerate a little person who will help me. Can you make it for me or please do you know someone can do it? please give me the contact information for someone who can help me? thank you to respond quickly. Sincerely,
Hi Alain,
I'd recommend purchasing the WordPress version if you need a working booking system, it'd be much cheaper to do this than hire a programmer to code a custom booking system for you.
Kind regards
i already did alls the things, i just need someone for the booking part …. www.advantage-studio.com/grandview/
can you check it please
A booking system with an availability checker is very complex to implement, we've spent months coding the plugin for the WordPress version.
So I'd recommend either:
1.) Purchase the WordPress version
2.) Hire a freelancer from here: http://www.microlancer.com/
Kind regards
but I do not understand why your template does not work? for example booking step 1 …. I indicate the dates of arrival and departure, number of bedroom with the number of children and adults …. why in the booking step 2, alls this information are not memories?? I do not understand? is it normal?
Because it's a static HTML template Alain, none of the accommodation, booking, contact, etc features work.
The HTML template version of Soho Hotel is aimed at web developers who want to implement the template into their own system.
Kind regards
so i need to find a web developers for help me… thanks for your answers Regards Alain
Hello I would like to buy the template WP but I notice that in the next book in step 2 does not remember the data entered in step 1, why? hello Jerome

Kind regards
thanks for theme.

Hello, I have a holiday house that i am looking to rent out could i use this theme for this?

Lovely theme! Is there a way to easily translate it? I want to buy but would need to have the site in three languages.
Hi rdciftci,
Thanks for your interest.
Please bear in mind you're looking at the HTML version of Soho hotel here which isn't compatible with any translation plugins.
The WordPress version of Soho Hotel can be easily translated with WPML, CodeStyling or Poedit and is available here: http://themeforest.net/item/soho-hotel-responsive-hotel-booking-wp-theme/5576098
Kind regards
Hi QNS, fantastic theme!
I do have a few questions.. 1) Is it possible to include optional products to the room booking? For example: City tour (for additional $25), Airport pick-up ($40) and add this to the total.
2) ?Is there an option to have the price ?automatically ?changed? when the date gets closer to the actual booking date? ?For example: ???A room booking of one month in advance would be cheaper then two days in advance. ?
3) About the financial part, is there an overview of all invoices? a total of the sales and orders per month?
Many thanks,
Hi T41s36S,
Thanks for your interest.
You've posted this in the HTML version of Soho Hotel, I'm assuming your questions relate to the WordPress version here: http://themeforest.net/item/soho-hotel-responsive-hotel-booking-wp-theme/5576098
1.) Yes
2.) No
3.) You can view all the bookings made in the backend yes, there isn't a statistical overview which tells you how booking made per month etc though
Kind regards
Hello, I bought his Soho Hotel Theme, please let me know which item (line of code) of jquery.flexslider-min I switch to the slide of the automatic stay home (slideshow: true;). By the time I could not change.
Hi julianobaltazarwp,
Could you open a support ticket please and I'll be happy to assist: http://quitenicestuff.ticksy.com/
Kind regards
Could the events part be used in another html template if I bought the html version? I already have the wordpress version but I also have another site I would like to use the events part in. Could you direct me to where I can purchase the events part or could I use the one from this html version?
Hi perkiekat,
If you already own the WP version of Soho Hotel you can extract the events HTML from that – or if you're unsure how to do this you can indeed purchase the HTML version separately.
Please note if you're using the HTML on a separate domain you will need to purchase another license.
Kind regards
Usually you get subscribe.php and contact.php for 15$ template :/
Hi tompazg,
Thanks for purchasing!
I'm afraid no PHP files are included as mentioned in the template description.
Kind regards
Hi quitenicestuff,
I can see that.
this can be used on http://www.phptravels.com script ?
Hi kambakhat,
Thanks for your interest.
This is the HTML version of Soho Hotel, I'm afraid there's no out of the box support for the script mentioned, but it's possible to integrate it yourself by customizing the template.
Kind regards
How can i set zoom to map?
Hi emirnop,
Please open a support ticket and I'll be happy to help: http://quitenicestuff.ticksy.com/
Kind regards
Another great work;

Thanks lizzy_k2000, good to hear you're liking the template
Does the HTML template reservation system works ?
Hi sorinbasca,
Thanks for your interest.
I'm afraid the HTML version does not contain a booking system, you will need to purchase the WordPress version to get this: http://themeforest.net/item/soho-hotel-responsive-hotel-booking-wp-theme/5576098
Kind regards
Is there a 'show all' calendar view that shows all the room's availability?
Hi dawnhiller,
Thanks for your interest.
Please note this is a HTML template – you can't actually check availability.

By combining these varieties you get the benefits of all of them in one product!
Creatine is one of the most popular supplements today and that's not going to change anytime soon. There is a great amount of research to support its performance enhancing effects for a wide range of sports; from sports that demand intensive strength and endurance training like bodybuilding, weight lifting, Crossfit, cycling, and MMA to sports that require speed, such as sprinting, soccer, rowing, and swimming.* Creatine supplementation can greatly improve performance in the areas endurance, interval training and maximum strength.* Not all creatine is created equally and creatine powders can vary widely in quality and purity. That's why HIT created CreaFusion with a superior blend of top tier and highly researched creatine powders.
Creatine increases the amount of energy of your muscles by increasing the amount of ATP available.* As initial fuel for muscle contractions, ATP provides energy by releasing phosphate and becoming ADP. Through the use of creatine phosphate, ADP then becomes ATP again in order to be utilized within the muscle as energy.* Having extra creatine allows your body to regenerate ATP more quickly which allows you to work your muscles to their maximum potential because it helps your body to consistently feed them the energy they need during intensive training.*

This is not a light weight aluminum cane, it is heavy - but not in a bad way. It seems to offer more stability and it isn't difficult to navigate. This was a purchase for me, in addition to the light weight cane that I'd already owned and I feel more comfortable outside in the yard with this one.
I'm so happy that I purchase this cane. It is very sturdy, so I feel safe and secure. Its modern looking and the color is a sleek black. Its adjustable too. I absolutely love it.
I bought this for my father who began to suffer nerve pain on one side. He does not need a bariatric cane specifically but we knew this would be sturdy. He says it's lightweight, very strong, and easy to adjust.
I continue to be amazed with the quality of overstock.com's speed of delivery and quality of customer service. Although I am relatively a new customer of theirs, and this was only my second transaction, I continue to be impressed with overstock.com's service. I see this a the beginning of something big: a long-term relationship with the best of the best. Thanks.
i got this for my brother whom is a large man,i was just what he need
This cane is fantastic. Has the stability that is needed for anyone using a cane. Please note, this cane is heavier than it's ordinary This product is a cane for anyone who really needs a good cane.
Need for temporary use, worked well! AGAIN CHECK prices when you have time ..OVERSTOCK .COM IS FAR FROM THE LEAST EXPENSIVE! USING LESS AND LESS!
This cane is exactly what I needed. As other reviewers mentioned, it is a very heavy cane. I like this because it gives me a feeling of stability. The handle is easy to grip, it's adjustable, and I like the large tip. I am amazed at how much this cane has increased my mobility. Definitely recommend this product. And as always, I love Overstock for your great prices, low shipping prices and incredibly fast shipping of ordered items. Thank you, Overstock!
The cane is well built and sturdy. Balance is good. A bit heavy.
Very strong, but a little heavy. I would recommend it.

Auditioning for film requires a different skill set in addition to solid acting fundamentals. Here are some tips on improving your skills for film auditioning:
Many casting offices will provide actors with the entire script to read because they aren't on as tight of a schedule as television. Take advantage of this opportunity. The more information you have about your character you're reading for the better it is for you
It is essential to know the genre of the movie you are auditioning for because it will help you get the "feel" of the scene. An action-thriller scene is going to have a completely different feel than a stoner-comedy. It's your job to know the difference.
This sounds simple, but you must carefully read the scene several times. Read every word on the page. Get as much information as you can. Where is the scene taking place? What time is it? What year? Don't let any important information slip by you.
Most film auditions are on-camera. Be aware of where the camera is in the room and how tightly framed you are. Don't be afraid to ask what your camera frame is. Medium shot, full-body, close-up etc.? This will help you focus all your movements to be caught on the camera
Don't stress about getting every word perfect. It's most important to show the circumstances of the scene rather than focus on getting every word verbatim. This doesn't mean change every sentence in the scene. It's just a reminder that the casting director looks more at your reactions and if you are able to bring the scene to life.
Nothing will help your scene more than having fun with it. How often do you get a chance to show off your talent? Be bold, make strong choices, and use your instincts. This is what separates you from the hundreds of other actors reading in the casting office that week.
When you are in a casting office, behave like you are in someone else's house. Be courteous, respectful, and don't be overly chummy with the casting director. Go in, do your work, and make a good impression. The quickest way to ruin your audition is to irritate the casting director/associates before you even start reading. Not only will you not get called back, but they also won't ever call you in for anything else.

"Zinc is to be the next big base metals play for investors," said Scotiabank economist Pat Mohr Monday in the latest edition of the Scotiabank Commodity Price Index.
"A pick-up in China's Flash Purchasing Managers' Index for June to 50.8 from 49.4 in May and a broad-based improvement in U.S. industrial activity (+4.3% yr/yr, centered in autos, business equipment and materials) lifted market sentiment," she observed.
"An improvement in The American Institute of Architects Bulling Index – a leading indicator of commercial & institutional construction – also point to a modest recovery ahead in zinc-intensive U.S. non-residential building activity," Mohr added. "Equally important, market participants are anticipating a shift into 'deficit' in both refined metal and concentrate markets for zinc by mid-decade, given mine depletion and greenfield development which may not keep pace with demand."
Meanwhile, the Scotiabank Metal and Mineral Index lost further ground in May, declining 2.4% and 15/7% below a year ago, Mohr advised. "Base metals rallied strongly, but were more than offset by softer precious metals and lower iron ore, uranium and sulphur prices."
Potash prices (FOB Vancouver) were flat in May at US$302.50 per tonne, after bottoming in January at US$295," said Mohr. "However, news that Uralkali will attempt to maximize revenue, rather than production, by seeking somewhat higher prices has lifted equity valuations for Western Canada's potash producers. Global shipments are expected to pick up from 53 million tonnes in 2013 to 55-58 mt (million tonnes) in 2014, given strong deliveries to Brazil and the United States."
In her analysis, Mohr noted that "international oil prices have been pushed up by the incursion of the ISIS (the Islamic State of Iraq and Northern Syria) into northern and Sunni-dominated central Iraq".
"Since March, about 260,000 b/d of northern Iraqi oil exports have been lost due to the shutdown by insurgents of the Iraq-Turkey pipeline, which normally transfers Kirkuk blend through to Ceyhan," she said. "However, if the militants push further east into Kurdistan, another 500,000 b/d could be lost; some of this output has probably already been disrupted by militant fighting over Iraq's largest oil refinery (310,000 b/d at Baji), which runs on Kirkuk crude."
"A successful move into Shiite-dominated southern Iraq – the source of most of Iraq's oil production (around 2.6 mb/d in May 2014) seems unlikely," she noted, "exports from the south so far have not been affected."
"However, the timing and extent of planned huge investments by foreign oil majors in Iraq's oil fields will be delayed and likely reduced. Iraq has the world's fifth-biggest proven oil reserves at 140.3 trillion barrels behind Venezuela (297.3), Saudi Arabia (265.9), Canada (173.2) and Iran (157.3) and, under optimistic assumptions, might have produced as much as 8 mb/d by 2017."
"Geopolitical supply risks in Iraq come at a time of ongoing Libyan outages due to civil unrest and disappointing progress in developing the Kashagan oil field in Kazakhstan," Mohr observed, "While export disruption from Iraq has so far been limited, trades have bid up oil prices, recognizing the 'risk' to world oil supplies."
"In a worst-case scenario, Saudi Arabia could offset the loss of all Iraqi exports, with current Saudi output at 9.75 mb/d well below its maximum capability of 12.4 mb/d," she added. "However, supply conditions in most OPEC countries are surprisingly tight, with most oil fields operating over 95% of capability."
"The net result, the Brent oil price forecast has been revised up moderately to an average of US$111 per barrel in 2014 and US$112 in 2015 and WTI oil to US$102 in 2014 and US$103 in 2015, with positive implications for Canada's oil patch," Mohr concluded.

Church elder files racial profiling complaint | POLL
State police: Trooper made honest mistake
EVANSVILLE - A local pastor says she was racially profiled when she was stopped by an Indiana State Police trooper last month on Interstate 64.
Authorities acknowledge the Rev. Martha Granger should not have been pulled over but say the trooper made an honest mistake when he misinterpreted a detail in the law.
Granger, presiding elder for the local district of the Christian Methodist Episcopal Church, said she believes the trooper, Troy Fischer, has a problem with black women.
You had to be there and see. He didn't stare at us; he glared at me and my daughters. ... He frightened me for the rest of my life. I will forever see how he looked at me.""There was no other reason for him to stop me," she said. "There was no reason for that man to stop me other than I passed him and he looked at me."
Granger was traveling to Evansville from Louisville, Ky., with her two adult daughters the morning of Aug. 19 when Fischer pulled her over near the 56-mile marker.
Granger said she passed and made eye contact with Fischer, whose patrol car was sitting in the median, and noticed him pull out and start to follow her even though she wasn't speeding.
Fischer a short time later pulled in front of Granger and appeared to be looking at a license plate on the front of her Ford Taurus — an expired Indiana vanity plate that reads "REV MOM." As he did so, Granger said, he came dangerously close to colliding with the side of her car and forced her to veer off the road.
A short time later, he got behind Granger and pulled her over. She said Fischer was rude from the very beginning as he repeatedly accused her of wanting to argue about being in violation of the law.
Granger said the trooper also brought up her traffic history as though it were an issue, though she'd had no tickets in the last decade.
He later wrote a warning and tossed it into the vehicle rather than handing it over and conducted the whole stop with a demeanor that inspired fear, she said.
"You had to be there and see," Granger said. "He didn't stare at us — he glared at me and my daughters. ... He frightened me for the rest of my life. I will forever see how he looked at me."
Granger was initially told by Jasper district officials that she was indeed in violation of the law, but was informed it was a mistake after filing a complaint.
Indiana State Police trooper Chad Dick said a review of the code reveals it is illegal to travel with a fictitious plate or one belonging to another vehicle. Granger's is simply an expired plate for her car that had been moved to its front. A current plate was attached correctly to the back of the vehicle.
A mistake
"It was just a misinterpretation," Dick said. "Under good faith, he thought he was making a legitimate stop."
State police also looked into Granger's complaint that Fischer was rude and found that allegation "unsubstantiated." Essentially, it boiled down to her story versus his and the "facts available (were) not sufficient enough to prove or disprove" if he was rude, Dick said.
Adding to Granger's concern about racial profiling was how her race was identified on the warning. It said "unknown," which Granger said essentially eliminates a paper trail of how many black motorists Fischer has stopped.
Dick said it happened because race is automatically left blank when a trooper uses an in-car driver's license scanner to populate the fields in a ticket or warning. If he forgets to go back in and enter race, it shows up as unknown.
There was no evidence of racial profiling on the stop, Dick said.
"We enforce the laws equally," he said.
It is still unclear if Fischer, a six-year-veteran who Dick said has been in the Jasper district for several years, has had any prior complaints made against him or if any have been substantiated.
Dick said Thursday he did not know but would look into Fischer's history. A day later, he said the request for information on Fischer's record would have to be made in writing. No response to that request was received.
Dick said Fischer was retrained on license plate violations and guidelines on such stops were sent in a memo to all troopers at the post.
Granger said that's not enough. She doesn't want Fischer fired, but she said he should undergo counseling. She said she will not pursue any further action, but she does want people to know about him and what happened to her.
"I want nothing more than to make people aware he's out there," she said. "He's dangerous. I'm telling you, he's dangerous. He is going to do something, and there's going to be a problem."

I am very new in iReport. i have learnt a lot from this forum.
Now I am trying to draw time series chart.
In my data base I have last_computed_time (String) ex=12:30 am Jan 2nd, 07, and time_interval as String and five values like t1(double),t2(double),t3(double),t4(double),t5(double).
here aome other cols like actual value ,UCL and LCL these are double.
Now I have to draw a time series chart where
value time
----- --------
t1 last_computed_time + time _interval
t2 last_computed_time + time _interval+ time _interval
t3 last_computed_time + time _interval+ time _interval+ time _interval
in this up to t5.
my problem is that I can't convert the string value of last_computed_time and time _interval INTO TIME STAMP /DATE/TIME in this format.
and also addition of both of them.
Actually in java I can convert it using SimpleDateFormat and parsing method. but in ireport I am getting problem .
I need some thing like this
here the purpale line shows UCL(upper controll line) and blue line shows LCL(lower controll line).
here is some checking if value of t1/t2/t3/t4/t5 is sreater or smaller than UCL or LCL then the color of t1/t2/t3/t4/t5 will different. That I can do using customizer class.
I need to draw this two line associated with UCL and LCL along x-directionthis is very impotant. And other value measurement will be on y direction.
If you don't under stand my query please reply.
Please help me.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance. [file name=test-aa1036e8e0bb3b4b82231945ca0f6c33.doc size=39424]http://www.jasperforge.org/components/com_joomlaboard/uploaded/files/tes... size=159]

If you know how to convert String to Date in Java using the SimpleDateFormat class, then it should be easy also in JasperReports as report expressions are Java expressions.
For each of the 5 T fields that you have you should create a corresponding V1, V2, ..., V5 variable of Date type. Each of these variables should have calculation="Nothing" and it their <variableExpression> should use a SimpleDataFormat to parse the Tx field into a Date value according to the known formatting pattern.
Once you have the 5 variables which hold the Date value for each of the 5 String T fields, you could feed them into a time series chart.
The way to add the time interval values to the initial time value, depends on what exactly the time interval String value represents. Is it a number of seconds or something similar? This is also a pure Java issue and not specific to JasperReports and iReport in particular. It is about working with date time values and you probably need to look into the Calendar class in JDK to see how such operations could be performed.
You then reuse these techniques in report variables to achieve what you need.
I hope this helps.

Very very thanks for your reply.
Actually now I can convert string to date datatype.
I have a problem with adding some date values. Here below what i have tried.
I have created a variable 'parse' with class type java.text.SimpleDateFormat and variable expression new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm a MMM dd, yy") .
Then i created a variable 'dat' with class type java.util.Date and varible expression $V{parse}.parse($F{LAST_COMPUTED}) where $F{LAST_COMPUTED} is a field value (it's a string as example '12:30 am Jan 2nd, 07').
Now i can get this string as a date type varible in $V{dat}.
Now i want to add/subtruct some day/month/year/week or hour/minute/second with this $V{dat} varible and want to store in another varible .
The adding value may be 1 hour,2 hour, 1 weeks, 2 weeks, 3 months, 4 months in this way.
That i can't do in iReport.Please help me on that. Actually in java, using calender class(using add() and set() method) i can do it. But i want to calculate it in iReport(i am using Ver. 1.3.0).
Also in iReport I created another variavle 'calender'with class type java.util.Calendar and value expression Calendar.getInstance(). I know that it shows the current datetime value.. Actually i thought that using calender i can do it . But i am in vein.
If any one can't under stand my requirement please reply.
Please help me to short out this problem in iReport.
Thanks in advance.

cgimodel: CGI Programming Made Easy with Python
Assume you already have this module:
#!/usr/bin/env python # testmethod.py def Method1(name1,name2,name3): print name1,name2,name3 if __name__ == '__main__': Method1('one','two','three')
Edit the cgidisp.py module, inserting the following method under the class Dispatcher:
def cmd_TestMeth(self,parDict): import testmethod name1 = parDict['name1'] name2 = parDict['name2'] name3 = parDict['name3'] testmethod.Method1(name1,name2,name3)Now it is ready! You can call this on the command line by typing on one line:
cgimodel.py -fun TestMeth -name1 one -name2 two -name3 threeor by URL (all on one line):
cgimodel.py?-fun=TestMeth&name1=one&name2=two&name3=threeor by FORMS:
<FORM METHOD="post" ACTION="/cgi-bin/cgimodel.py"> <INPUT TYPE=hidden name=fun value=TestMeth> <INPUT TYPE=hidden name=name1 value=one> <INPUT TYPE=hidden name=name2 value=two> <INPUT TYPE=hidden name=name3 value=three> <INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Run"> </FORM>It would be much better if you could separate HTML text from CGI modules, so that CGI looks thinner and more readable. You can use the template modules (see Resources) to do this. The template module keeps the text away from the CGI and has a page-paragraph structure. Each CGI call can be associated with a page, and each paragraph can be used to set up the view of your HTML page.
cgimodel can host any number of applications. The redundancy of writing a CGI front end is no longer necessary. Since many applications can be run by a single cgimodel, logging information particular to each application can be done for later analysis to improve server performance, stability of each application, better service, etc. Currently, this can be done with the log information generated by the web server.
With cgimodel.py, cgidisp.py and possibly the template.py modules, you should find writing and testing CGI programs easier.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

LG Nexus 4 Wireless Charging Orb
Monday 15th July 2013 by Mihnea Gamulescu in Android, Mobile Accessories.
This official LG wireless charger has been designed specifically for the Nexus 4 but it can be used to charge any other Qi compatible device such as the Lumia 920 or a Galaxy S4 with a charging cover.
If you're looking for a wireless charger with a great design that will also double up as a stand (slanted at a 45° angle) then look no further. The LG orb is not only easy to use (pop device on to charge and the Nexus quickly sticks to the charger) it also has a pretty cool feature: the Orb automatically cuts off the power once your device is fully charged in order to prevent over charging which can decrease battery life and battery life expectancy.
The Orb's design is a perfect match for the Nexus 4. So it looks great but let's talk specs. Expected charging time to full is approximately 4 hours and the Orb weighs in at approximately 130, not that you'll care as its home will be probably be your desk or night stand.
Looking for something else? See our whole range of wireless chargers and choose the right one for you.

The sliding t-nuts are great for T-track applications as well as for strong anchors in wood projects.
Barrel too wide
By Dave
from American Fork, UT
While these nuts are good quality and quite affordable, the OD on the barrel measures ~ .301", which is too wide to fit in a t-slot cut with a 1/4" bit. This makes them incompatible with the Whiteside 98-389 Small T-Slot Router Bit (#128256) that I also purchased from woodcraft at quite a premium. I was able to cut most of the barrel off with a dremel tool, which then allowed the nut to fit in the slot.

Kullervo Manner
This article does not cite any references or sources. (January 2013) |
Kullervo Achilles Manner (October 12, 1880 in Kokemäki, Finland – January 15, 1939 in Ukhta-Pechora, the USSR) was a Finnish journalist and politician, and later a Soviet politician. He was a member of the Finnish parliament, serving as its Speaker in 1917. He was also chairman of the Social Democratic Party of Finland between 1917–1918. During the Finnish Civil War, he led the Finnish People's Delegation, a leftist alternative to the established Finnish government. After the war, he escaped to the Soviet Union, where he co-founded the Finnish Communist Party.
Early life[edit]
Manner was born a priest's son in Kokemäki. His father Gustaf Manner worked in various parishes, including those of Lappi and Vampula. After graduating from high school in 1900, Manner worked as a journalist in Porvoo and later in Helsinki. In 1911, Manner received a prison sentence for lèse majesté (a lesser crime similar to treason) against Nicholas II. He was elected to the Finnish Parliament as a Social Democrat from Uusimaa in 1910 and 1917. He was appointed Speaker of the Parliament in 1917. Manner's brother Arvo was governor of Viipuri and Kymi provinces from the 1920s to the 1950s.
Civil War[edit]
On January 28, 1918, during the Finnish Civil War, Manner was appointed Chairman of the Finnish People's Delegation. On April 10 of the same year, Manner was appointed commander-in-chief of the Red Guards as well as head of state of its short-lived government, "The People's Deputation. He was given dictatorial powers.
In the USSR[edit]
After the Civil War, Manner fled to Soviet Russia where he became the second chairman of the Finnish Communist Party after Yrjö Sirola. He also became an official of the Comintern. In the 1930s, Manner and his wife Hanna Malm fell out of favor with Otto Wille Kuusinen. Manner was dismissed from most of his duties in May 1934. He continued to work as a Comintern rapporteur on Latin American affairs until July 1935.
Sent to the Gulag[edit]
In 1935, Manner and Malm were arrested and sentenced individually to ten years hard labor. Manner was taken to a Gulag labor camp in Ukhta-Pechora in Komi Republic. Hanna Malm also received a ten-year sentence. She was taken to a labor camp in the Solovetsky Monastery island, where she later committed suicide by drowning.
Manner died in the Ukhta-Pechora labor camp on January 15, 1939. The official cause of death was tuberculosis. However, according to historian Aleksandr Popov, the real cause of Manner's death was radiation poisoning which he developed when working in a radium mine.
Manner was rehabilitated in 1962.
