No matter which type of room divider suits your space, all are simple to set up and fold closed with ease. Constructed from high-quality materials, our partitions are sturdy and long-lasting. In addition, Hertz Furniture offers a complimentary planning and design service to help you make the right purchase.
Freestanding room dividers come in a huge selection of lengths. This arrangement enables you to choose the configuration that fits your space perfectly. Longer options are great if you need to divide a large room into separate areas. Shorter configurations are perfect for sectioning off small areas.
Why should you get partitions?
Room dividers save money while making the most of your space. Rather than undertaking a costly construction project, a portable partition can quickly create a new space. Instead of spending months waiting for your room to be ready and back in use, you can divide your space in a matter of minutes. If you decide you want an alternate arrangement, you can simply rearrange the partitions again.How should I choose partitions?
There are various benefits to different arrangement options. Slimmer panels are good for tighter turns. Sound absorbing options are ideal for many settings, especially classrooms and offices. Many partitions have surfaces you can hang posters or important information on using tacks or velcro, so you won&t need to find an appropriately-sized bulletin board for displaying information in a newly-divided room.Mobile display towers offer an excellent way to divide up an open space while exhibiting student projects, pictures of recent church events or community announcements. Their tackable surfaces accommodate a variety of hanging options including staples and velcro. Display panels can be rolled into the hallway or lobby to display science fair posters and student announcements, and rolled back into storage when they are not needed anymore.
Individual panels are available for dividing up smaller spaces. Wood Designs offers freestanding single divider panels with fun surface options. These choices make the panels themselves into additional activity centers for preschool, daycare or elementary school classrooms. For school use or office use, room dividers are also available with chalkboard or whiteboard surfaces, or built-in cabinets.
Which dividers are best for large spaces?
For a more permanent setup in larger public spaces, wall-mounted dividers are an excellent option. The floor-to-ceiling panels create the feeling of permanent walls, with the advantage of being able to remove them when you want a larger or more open space. If you still need an easy way to go between sectioned off areas, door panel options are available.There are two different styles of partitions for wall-mounted floor-to-ceiling divisions. Accordion partitions are designed for public areas in schools, offices and places of worship. They minimize air and sound passing between divided sections, so the spaces really feel like separate rooms. Wall-mounted panel partitions are available as well. Full-length wall-mounted panels require custom arrangements in order to ensure that they are arranged and installed correctly.
Hertz Furniture offers partitions from leading manufacturers including Screenflex, HON, Customfold and Wood Designs. With a huge selection of sizes and styles, you can find the perfect arrangement for dividing up any space. Whether you are looking to separate spaces in a cafeteria, office, gym, classroom or social hall, Hertz Furniture has a number of options that will meet your needs. Many of our models come with a complimentary extended warranty for years of guaranteed functionality.

HON's practical office furniture is Made in the USA with eco-friendly materials. With a 25-year warranty from Hertz Furniture, you can be sure that these computer desks, file cabinets and executive chairs will be there to see your company through from the big move to your next merger and beyond.
The key to having a productive work day and going home happy is surrounding oneself with attractive and comfortable office furniture. Surroundings which are organized, appealing and supportive help professionals concentrate and feel relaxed at the office - even if they are working in high-pressure situations. Every employee from administrative assistant to entry-level clerk to company president contributes to the overall success of a business or organization, so it is important to make sure that every workspace is furnished properly.
When considering how to promote the physical comfort of a lawyer, principal or secretary throughout the day, office chairs should be the main concern. A supportive swivel chair which promotes naturally healthy positioning will prevent aches and pains associated with working at a computer for many hours. Cushy padding, attractive upholstery and adjustable features combine ergonomics and aesthetics for a synthesis that both looks and feels wonderful.
While every employee deserves the best office chair, high-level executives such as partners, CEOs and vice presidents deserve seating that is a step above. They certainly need the same custom support as all employees do, but they also require an elegant style which projects a sense of authority and reliability. Executive chairs feature high backs and luxurious padding which is a cut above the rest. A leather office chair is the classic choice for someone who is in charge of a large company.
Once appropriate seating has been selected, it's time to move on to work surfaces. Office desks come in all shapes and sizes. With their simple yet practical designs, HON computer desks can fit in with any decor or color scheme. Pedestals with box and file drawers keep everything organized, whether you prefer a u-shape or classic rectangular configuration. HON's durable steel office desks make great teacher desks because they are able to withstand the use - and abuse - of any classroom.
A busy professional with many clients will likely require more storage and filing space than any regular computer desk can provide. An easy way to provide extra office storage without crowding the workspace is by adding a coordinated hutch to the executive desk. Office hutches fit right above the work surface, forming a seamless connection that is both convenient and visually appealing. Another excellent way to add some drawer space, and even an extra work surface is by placing a credenza next to or behind a desk. With this arrangement, one can simply swivel around on a computer chair, without having to get up or move too far, and retrieve the necessary supplies or documents.
Busy law firms and medical practices have lots of papers that must be organized on a constant basis. File cabinets offer an easy way to keep everything in order. HON filing cabinets feature generous drawers and are available in both lateral and vertical configurations. With these arrangements, a standardized filing system can be easily achieved and maintained.
Many executives like to keep some reading materials in their personal offices. Office bookcases will keep reference books, personal collections and binders in neat displays that are befitting the professional atmosphere. Bookshelves can go in the executive suite, employee lounge, training room, or even the waiting area. They come in compact two-shelf models as well as high-capacity floor-to-ceiling arrangements.
Not every professional is privileged to enjoy the pleasures of a large executive suite. However, there are ways to create a private personal workspace within a large shared area. Office cubicles from HON are versatile and convenient. They can be set up in a variety of configurations depending on the nature of your space and how you prefer to divide it up. Cubicles have the benefits of both personal areas and a shared space because they create clear divisions while still promoting camaraderie and teamwork.
Enjoy the versatility and practicality of HON Furniture in any office, school or organization. Let this budget-friendly modern office furniture facilitate productivity in a positive work environment as your company evolves from startup to industry leader.

Watched the SD game again last night on NFL Network and a few things stood out. Apologies if this was posted elsewhere. The Defense did a specatcular job, especially in the first half, considering the starting field position SD was starting every drive with. In a similar vein, while watching teh game live I felt really nervous the whole time and it really felt like they kind of stole the win, but watching it again, you can see that the Pats were right there the whole time and were just as close to SD to breaking the game open a few times. Just a great game. LT is hands down the best player in football right now, unlike previous games where we have faced a huge threat and found a way to neutralize him, it almost seems like the gameplan this time was to work around LT. Like they said "OK, LT is good for 150 yards and a couple TD's" and there was pretty much no other way to win the game but to spot him his yards and points and still find a way to win The drive at the end of the first half was as good as any we have seen in the BB/Brady era and Kevin Faulk was huge on that drive. That holding penalty negated one his greatest runs For all of the hysteria surrounding LT's comments about the post game dance, when they showed him talking to the press throughout the game he was very complimentary about the Pats and went out of his way to praise their poise and abilty to make the big play and went on to say that the penalties and unprofessional mistakes killed the Chargers. To me this shows how badly the Lights Out dance stuff got blown out of proportion in the press. Lastly, at the end of the game they show Philip Rivers dressed like any other guy giving his press conference and he is just kind of your normal all-american QB white guy type- Cut to Tom Brady in his jacket and open shirt standing outside the locker room surrounded by press, knowing he is aboout to meet Gisele Bundchen and play in yet another AFCC, and you can just see this golden glow coming off the guy. He has never looked cooler. And it just made Rivers seem like a high school kid. Have fun at the Pro Bowl Junior
I don't think the Pats were there the entire time. They were extremely lucky that Troy Brown stripped the ball after the INT. Had he not you know MArty would have gone into ultra conservative mode and ran the ball exclusively. I don't think they could have stopped LT and the time would ahve just ran out. I felt because the game became tied Marty wanted to be aggresive and threw the ball which played into the Pats hands of stopping the Chargers for a 3 and out. The Pats hung on at the end by a lifeline.
Of course, but they had some other chances earlier in the game that they missed, especially Brady overthowing a wide open Watson. Had Recehe stayed in bounds on his huge catch that is a TD and the Chargers would have needed a TD to tie.. I think Brady just missed hooking up with Caldwell on another TD pass as well. My main point is that the game was not "dominated" by the Chargers as it was made out to be by many
JimmyJames, I watched that last night as well. I too felt anxious during the game live and felt that the Pats were getting their hats handed to them at the time. During the replay I felt the game was MUCH less lopsided than I did when watching it live. True there were plays that could have gone either way for both teams but during the replay I felt that I was more objective about the Pats performance and came away feeling like the game was not as bad as previously interpreted. Luck you say? Luck is when preparation meets with opportunity. Author unknown.

Oil Prices Deflate to Year-to-Date Lows
TheStreet) -- Crude
oil prices plunged to a year-to-date low Thursday as a U.S. dollar rally and strains on global growth pressured futures contracts to under $90.
The September contract for West Texas Intermediate light sweet crude oil fell $5.30 to settle at $86.63 -- earlier hitting a year-to-date low of $86.04. Brent crude oil for September delivery tumbled $5.44 to $107.79 a barrel, down a third straight day and earlier hitting a one-month low of $107.
The U.S. dollar index was surging by 1.6% to $75.09 as risk averse traders weighed on the Bank of England's vote to keep interest rates at 0.5% and maintain its current monetary easing program, and the European Central Bank's decision to hold rates at 1.5%.
Traders continue to fret over the possibility that European Union debt problems could spread to Spain and Italy and lead to sovereign debt restructuring.
Capital Economics thinks that the European Central Bank's interest rate hikes for curtailing inflation have come to an end on very slow growth in the region going forward. Eurozone retail sales ticked up a mere 0.9% in June, following a 1.3% decline in May. In the U.S., initial jobless claims fell, but remained stubbornly high at 400,000 in the week ended July 30, down by 1,000. Last week's level was upwardly revised to 401,000, from 398,000. Martin Feldstein, President Emeritus at the National Bureau of Economic Research, believes there's now a 50% chance that the U.S. could fall back into a recession. The Department of Energy report on Wednesday showing a 950,000 barrel increase in U.S. crude inventories last week also weighed on oil stocks. This, as MasterCard Advisors SpendingPulse's latest U.S. gasoline demand report for the week ending Jul. 29 said that U.S. gasoline consumption was up by a "minuscule" 0.1% compared with a week earlier. The macroeconomic indicator is based on aggregate sales and services activity in the MasterCard payments network. Crude oil stocks are 1.57% above levels two years ago and stocks specifcally at Cushing, Okla., the main point of crude oil delivery in the U.S., are 8.11% higher than two years ago, according to a Cameron Hanover report. "We want to be bearish, for a number of reasons, not least among them the fundamentals," Cameron Hanover analysts say. "But the oversold pressures are telling us this market is a buy ... while everything except support is telling us this market should go lower." "And, there is one event that could take oil prices right back up -- QE3. With the stock market getting hammered, there has been fresh talk of the Fed possibly giving us another round of quantitative easing -- QE3. If that were to be the case, then oil prices would advance significantly. And the dollar would get killed." Natural gas for September delivery lost 3.4% to $3.95 per million British thermal units on a bigger-than-expected 44 billion cubic feet injection of natural gas stocks last week and the worries about the impact of slowing economic growth on industrial demand for the commodity. "The larger-than-expected 44 bcf in net injections for last week reinforces the idea that rising production has largely been a match for hot temperatures and strong utility demand for gas," said Citi Futures Perspective energy analyst Tim Evans. Oil and gas stocks were falling. Apache Corporation (APA - Get Report) was losing 5.6% to $111.86, Anadarko Petroleum (APC - Get Report) was tumbling 7.6% to $74.21, Devon Energy (DVN - Get Report) was falling 4% to $72.76, Eagle Rock Energy (EROC) was behind 6.8% to $10.18, Chesapeake Energy (CHK - Get Report) was under by 6.7% to $31.93, Kinder Morgan Inc (KMI - Get Report) was down 3.4% to $26.79 and Kinder Morgan Energy Partners LP (KMP) was lower by 2.6% to $67.62. -- Written by Andrea Tse in New York.>To contact the writer of this article, click here: Andrea Tse.

Does Stress Cause a Different Type of Skin Damage?
Posted By Worker Bee On November 2, 2007 @ 11:16 am In Aging,Prevention,Stress | 4 Comments
Stress is often blamed for wrinkles, dark shadows, and tired-looking skin. But a new study suggests that psychological stress make actually impair our skin's ability to resist infectious germs. The skin is the first line of defense for our bodies against bacteria and viruses. It's a naturally antimicrobial surface. When researchers reporting in the Journal of Clinical Investigation [7] exposed mice to severe psychological stress and subsequent streptococcus, the mice developed worse infections and had higher stress hormone measures than mice who were not exposed to any stress. Though it's only a murine study, it's worth noting!
Later today, we'll bring you some helpful stress-reducing tips just in time for the weekend.

Shepard & Dark
Sam Shepard and Johnny Dark met in Greenwich Village in the early 1960s and, despite leading very different lives, remained close friends ever since. Shepard became a Pulitzer Prize winning playwright (Buried Child) and an Academy Award-nominated actor, while Dark was a homebody with a penchant for letter writing, photography, and supporting himself with odd jobs from dog-catcher to deli worker. Through the decades, they stayed bonded by family ties. Dark married an older woman named Scarlett and Shepard married her daughter. For years, the two couples lived together, until Shepard broke away for a relationship with Jessica Lange in 1983, leaving Johnny to help father his first son. Nevertheless, he and Dark continued writing to each other, amassing hundreds of letters.

Craigslist and classifieds are obvious resources job seekers are using to find work, but scammers are seeing this as an easy way to collect personal information.
Kristin Yonkers said, "I graduated from UNCW on Saturday and I've basically been a wreck for the past two months trying to find a job."
Kristin Yonkers, like many others, is feeling the fear and anxiety of unemployment. "It's grueling," she said.
She searches job sites like Craigslist and Monster, but is skeptical of what she finds, and for a good reason. While the sites may lead many to employment, several others get scammed.
Matthew Thomas, a job placement specialist said, "If they send you out a letter that sounds very standard, chances are you aren't the only one who received it and they're just trying to obtain some information from you."
So what's in it for the scammer?
Thomas said once job scammer's get a hold of your personal information, they sell it to solicitors. That's how many junk e-mailers clog up your inbox.
Thomas helped develop a new program that places Cape Fear Community College students and graduates in jobs. He says they take every precaution to make sure the program is scam-free. "I check their website, I check the information that they provide and I make sure they're an actual employer and everything checks out."
Craigslist warns job seekers that they are searching at their own risk, and requires very little information to post jobs, thus opening the door for scammers.
To make sure you don't fall into a scammer's trap, research the company before you apply.
Thomas said, "Take that information, take every bit of that information and do everything you possibly can."
And like Yonkers, look out for suspicious postings. "Stuff that's just too good to be true. I mean if you're going to be making $3,000 from home, that just doesn't make sense."
Wilmington's local paper, the Star News, investigates job openings they suspect are scams before posting them in the classifieds.
Monster.com has a confidential resume option that protects users contact information. It's security measures like this, that filter out scams to help job searchers like Kristin Yonkers find a job.
Before you send a resume or give out any personal information, call the employer and check out the company's website or you can research the corporation on-line to make sure it is a legitimate job opening, and not just a scam.

Talk:Symbian Browser and Web Runtime 7.3 for Developers
A few questions: 1) Is Canvas supported? 2) How can you not have implemented offline storage and application cache? This is exactly what was needed in a smartphone. The "HTML5" apps especially made for Android and iOS pretty much all take advantage of these features. This is a major disappointment.
Please comment on what will likely be included in the 7.4 browser.
Lastly, when can we finally get a web runtime that allows users to enable permissions only one time and never have to give permission again instead of each time you open the app. Not user friendly at all!!!
22:36, 12 April 2011 spanishgringo (Upgraded webkit but not much HTML5 to show for it - When will we get Offline storage?
Hey, First of all, as a web developer, I feel your frustration. :)
The main targets with Browser 7.3 were to bring the usability and real life performance to a new level. The developer facing updates are significant, yet some features we would have loved to get in, didn't quite make it.
Canvas and offline capas are not supported in 7.3.
Anyhow, the train is moving forward and we're very busy with the next iteration(s). Stay tuned.

Aate - Authentication in URL
Hello (and sorry for my bad english writing).
I don't understand why this "http://username:email@example.com/protected" STANDARD form of URL is no longer supported. It's a huge problem for my business and me because some of our business applications involving many machines are based on this principle. Please, is there any way to activate this feature in the new version or workaround (without using any other browser) ? Authentication stored in the bookmarks do not work either! I am generally pleased with the work of Nokia teams but I do not understand this choice.

Airbus Industrie may increase its narrow-body production rate to 22 or 23 aircraft per month while wide-body deliveries could rise to 7 or 8 per month.
Airbus's current plan is to produce 19 narrow-body A319/A320/A321s per month by the end of this year with the wide-body rate rising to five a month.
British Aerospace chief executive, Sir Richard Evans, says Airbus is considering a higher rate but must take into account a number of factors including the current financial turmoil in Asia Pacific. He concedes the region is not a major market for narrow-bodies but it is an important consideration for the A330/A340 production rate.
Evans says: "We have to be happy with any increase and be able to deliver. I am confident we can avoid Boeing's problems, but it is clear that it is not a simple task, it's a big management task, but I am absolutely confident [that the requirement] can be met."
Group managing director, Mike Turner, says the rate has increased by 50% in the last year and will increase by a further 30% by December. Two years ago, Airbus was turning out five narrow-bodies every month from the A320 line in Toulouse and the A319 and A321 lines in Hamburg, Germany.

Friday's spectacle of blatant fiscal irresponsibility was all too familiar. Despite having a year and half to meet deficit-reduction goals required to avoid sequestered budget cuts, our elected officials in Washington didn't get that long-overdue job done.
Thus, in accordance with the 2011 debt-ceiling deal, the missed deadline prompted the start of spending reductions that would total 2.2 percent of the federal budget if they continue.
Another familiar scenario:
The president again passed the buck Friday for this latest basic failure by both the legislative and executive branches of the U.S. government.
He even took a shot at lawmakers from his own party. After reprising his stale complaints against Republicans' refusal to go along with tax "reforms" that would, in effect, impose tax hikes, he said: "Democrats aren't doing anything either to compromise."
Yet the president exempted one particular Democrat from that complaint — himself.
As he put it: "There are members of my party who violently disagree that anything should be done on Medicare. I disagree with them."
He even asserted that he has "put forward a plan that has serious spending cuts, serious entitlement reform."
In fact, the president has repeatedly opposed the hard decisions needed — including benefit cuts and eligibility age increases — to overhaul entitlements.
In his second inaugural speech last month, he even proclaimed: "The commitments we make to each other — through Medicare and Medicaid and Social Security — these things do not sap our initiative; they strengthen us."
As for those "serious spending cuts" in the 10-year deal that averted the fiscal cliff on Jan. 1, hardly any of them are scheduled to take effect until eight years from now.
Yes, it was up to Congress to pass legislation making the cuts necessary to avert sequestration reductions.
However, President Obama could have — and should have — taken a leadership role to find middle ground, rather than extending what appears to be his endless campaign mode.
The president again decried Republican resistance to tax hikes Friday. But keep in mind that the GOP went along with $600 billion in tax increases in that fiscal-cliff agreement just two months ago.
Keep in mind, too, what Alan Simpson and Erskine Bowles wrote Friday on the MarketWatch website. They were co-chairs of the president's bipartisan debt commission, which two years ago issued solid recommendations that he has failed to champion.
Looking beyond the current uproar over the sequester, Mr. Simpson and Mr. Bowles grimly predicted "more small-ball solutions that mostly kick the can down the road a little while longer."
They also pointed out that despite the "pain" the $85 billion in spending cuts the sequester will inflict, they will do "almost nothing to deal with the long-term drivers of our growing debt."
And they again urged the president and Congress "to put politics aside and work quickly to replace sequestration and put our fiscal house in order with targeted cuts and real reforms in both the entitlement programs and the tax code."
Unfortunately, though, Washington's fiscal vision remains dangerously out of focus.
And that's a long-term hazard with potential consequences far more alarming than $85 billion in cuts from a $3.8 trillion budget.

Comments about Footjoy Wax Golf Shoe Laces:
Having worn the shoes for a few rounds, they have stretched comfortably and need to be laced a bit tighter. The laces are now just long enough and have also become a bit softer and so easier to tie. Still not ideal, but, to be fair, worth more than the one star I originally gave them.
I don't get it
About Me Comfort Driven
Best Uses
I just bought my first pair of Footjoy shoes. The quality looks to be good and they are comfortable so far, but I personally find the laces a real let-down. As others have commented, they are too short (for my Sport Spikeless shoes) and also hard to tie because of being thin and stiff with wax. Unless they ease up soon (and of course they won't be getting any longer) I shall have to replace them - and it won't be with these, of course.

Clayton News Daily
By Johnny Jackson
The Georgia Department of Education reported Monday that more of the state's students are taking the SAT than ever before. The percentage of minority students taking the test is also climbing at a significant rate.
With 74 percent of public high school seniors (52,632) taking the SAT, Georgia ranked among the top 10 states in the nation for participation on the 2010 College Board-administered college entrance exam, according to state officials.
State data also revealed that roughly 1,400 high school seniors in Henry County took the SAT in 2010.
"We do have more students taking the SAT than some of the other states, but our numbers are continuing to show some improvements," said Erik Charles, a member of the Henry County Board of Education.
"In the state, and here, just in Henry County, we're doing well, even with so many students taking the test," said Charles, referring to the fact that states with broader participation in the test, tend to have lower average scores than the states in which mostly the academically strongest students take the test, and not the broader population of pupils.
State-wide, more than 44 percent of 2010 college-bound seniors taking the SAT were minority students. That's up from 35 percent in 2005, and 30 percent in 2000. Nearly 38 percent of the state's SAT takers indicated they were first-generation college attendees.
"The overall, increasing diversity of test-takers is an ongoing positive step, and from what we're seeing, a lot of this can be attributed to schools that historically have not seen strong college-attending populations taking a more active role in promoting a college-readiness culture," said Kristen Campbell, executive director of college prep programs at Kaplan Test Prep and Admissions, in a written statement Monday.
Georgia Superintendent of Schools Brad Bryant said he was encouraged by the number of minority and so-called first-generation students in Georgia planning to attend college.
Bryant noted that black students in Georgia outscored their black peers nationally in the content areas of critical reading and writing, while the state's Hispanic students outperformed their counterparts nationwide in critical reading, mathematics, and writing.
"It is good news that our African-American and Hispanic students are doing better than their peers nationally," Bryant said. "But Georgia is a very diverse state, and in order to raise our average SAT score, we must continue to close the achievement gap.
"For Georgia's students to remain competitive against other students across the U.S. and the world," he continued, "we must commit ourselves to preparing all students for the challenges of college and careers."
Georgia high school seniors averaged a score of 1,442 on the SAT (down eight points from the 2008-2009 school year) while the national average score was 1,497 (up four points from the previous year), according to the state's published results.
The results revealed that average SAT composite scores in the Henry County School System ranged from 1,279 at Henry County High and Stockbridge High, to 1,500 at Eagle's Landing High. The scores are based on the combined scores of the SAT's critical reading, mathematics and writing sections -- each worth 800 points, for a possible score of 2,400.
The state report also noted that, while only 79 high school seniors took the SAT at Henry County High, and 74 took the exam at Eagle's Landing High, 184 seniors were tested at Stockbridge High.
Union Grove High, which scored an average 1,491, was reported as having 174 students take the SAT, according to the data. Ola High had 188 test-takers score an average of 1,484.
Dutchtown High and Luella High had the largest contingency of high school seniors participate in the exam, with 241 and 275 participants, respectively. Students scored an average 1,375 on the SAT at Dutchtown High, and an average 1,374 at Luella High.
Patrick Henry High had too few students (three) take the exam for data to be reported. Locust Grove High, which opened for the 2009-10 school year, will graduate its first senior class in 2011. Results for Woodland High were not available at the time of this publication.
In Clayton County Public Schools, despite the majority of schools following the state-wide public school trend of lower average SAT scores, two schools -- Morrow High School and North Clayton High School -- bucked the trend, and posted gains, according to Georgia Department of Education data.
Morrow's average score went up by three points, while North Clayton's went up by 20 points.
On the opposite end of the achievement spectrum, however, Mt. Zion High School's average score plunged by nearly 100 points, according to Georgia Department of Education data.
The state's data show that Lovejoy High School posted the highest average SAT score in the district, with a mark of 1286 (which is down 8 points from the 2008-2009 school year). The data also show that Lovejoy was followed by Jonesboro High School (1283, down 37 points); Forest Park High School (1279, down three points); North Clayton High School (1273, up 20 points); Riverdale High School (1250, down 22 points); Morrow High School (1235, up three points); Mundy's Mill High School (1232, down four points); and Mt. Zion High School (1231, down 98 points).
There were no scores listed for Charles R. Drew High School, as the school, which only had freshman and sophomores last year, reportedly had no test-takers, according to the data provided by the Georgia Department of Education.
Clayton County Public Schools Director of Special Projects Delphia Young, who oversees academic assessments for the district, declined to comment on the scores, according to her secretary.

While the dress is not currently available in white and gold, the fashion label is considering adding it to the line.

If there's one thing Molly Sims has learned about pregnancy, it's how to maintain healthy habits. The supermodel mom, who is about to welcome her second child, opens up to the latest issue of The Bump about her baby girl's debut and bouncing back after giving birth
Showing off her growing belly in a tight white dress, the 41-year-old beauty fronts the newest cover of the mag. Inside, she says she and her husband, Scott Stuber, are spending a lot of one-on-one time with their son before their baby girl comes. "The time we had with just him has been amazing. I'm so excited for our daughter to arrive, but at the same time I'm going to miss alone time with him. It's something I really cherished these past two and a half years," she said.

"Star Trek" actor Leonard Nimoy, who was best known for his role as Spock in the iconic series, has died at the age of 83. His wife, Susan Bay Nimoy, confirmed to the New York Times that he passed away earlier today (Feb. 27) at his home in Bel Air.
According to his wife, the star's death was due to end-stage chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or COPD. He was reportedly hospitalized earlier this week.
Following in his mother's footsteps, Prince William honored fallen troops in Japan just as the late Princess Diana did 20 years ago this month.
On the second day of his four-day trip to the country, the 32-year-old royal visited the Yokohama War Cemetery, where more than 1,500 Commonwealth servicemen who died in Japan as prisoners of war or as part of the occupation afterward are buried.

Divers help pull out stolen pickup found in Red River in north Fargo
FARGO -- A pickup reported stolen Thursday from a West Fargo construction firm was pulled from the Red River in north Fargo on Sunday.
A pedestrian on the bike path by Mickelson Field in north Fargo saw tire tracks leading into the river and called authorities just before 11 a.m. Sunday, Assistant Fargo Fire Chief Larry Schuh said.
Fargo and Moorhead firefighters in boats probed the water with long poles and found the pickup under about 8 feet of water, Schuh said.

PASSION to PROFIT PREAMBLE: The only way to take control of your life, raise your standard of living and move beyond merely surviving is to create your own unique product or service that you offer to increasing numbers of people in exchange for the things of value that you desire. This simple formula applies to countries as well as people. A self-sufficient economy has its own products or services of value to export to the world. Similarly, a self-sufficient individual has something of value to exchange in the global marketplace. That thing of value is based on your natural talent, skill, or interest-in other words, your passion!
Scenes for discussion at your next dinner party
Opening Scene 1: Many years ago, I was offered many thousands of dollars to do a Turn Your Passion into Profit workshop at a major venue in the states. I turned it down. Why? The workshop was being sponsored by a cigarette company. I just couldnt see myself standing on stage with a big cigarette ad on a banner behind me. Even though I would be delivering information on self-empowerment and business success, I would be associated with and indirectly supporting the improved brand-identity, and agenda of the sponsoring company.
Cut to Scene 2: I once won a trip for two to a tropical island. Part of the requirements and terms of accepting the prize was that my name and/or photo could be used in future promotions for the company. The sponsor was an alcohol company. I refused the prize for the same reasons as for Scene 1 above.

3. One-on-one interview with one of the higher ups if pass
Only reason my overall experience rating is neutral instead of positive is because during the interview, they stated they would follow up with me. Despite thank you and follow up e-mails, I never heard back. Found it disrespectful, but heard it's common these days.

Application DetailsI applied online. The process took 2+ months – interviewed at AT&T in April 2011.
Interview DetailsInitially contacted by HR to see if I was interested. Upon letting them know I was interested there was about a 1 week wait before a hiring manager contacted me. The hiring manager asked basic questions about my resume and some basic knowledge questions. After completing the phone interview I was contacted again by HR a week later and asked in for a formal in-person interview. The in-person interview consisted of 3 hours meeting 5 different people, 3 hiring managers and 2 new-hires. Each hiring manager was director of a different department and all asked different questions on different technical topics. The new-hires gave me the basics about the company, how it was to work there and asked me some general questions/personality questions. Upon completion of the in-person interview I got a call 3 weeks later with a formal offer, which I accepted. After accepting the offer I got an e-mail with all of he things I need to do. Drug test, background checks, international background check and credit check. The background check is incredibly thorough and you better make sure you have phone numbers for any reference or school you put down. They check everything on your resume for legitimacy. I passed this process which took a month and a half. and was hired in June. Total time from interview to hire was about 60 days.

3 AVERAGEPosted: 23/04/2013A very disturbing flick! I see this more as a mental crime genre, not horror, I never jumped. The overall plot of the movie was decent but a little too extended. Superb acting from Jennifer Lawrence as usual but compared to her hits 'The Hunger Games, Silver Linings Playbook and Winter's Bone' - this is nothing!If you want a good horror see...InsidiousSinisterThe Messengers
5 A NEW TWIST ON THE CLASSIC TALEPosted: 23/04/2013I loved this movie, the action, the gore and the comedy! Superb acting from Jeremy Renner and Gemma Arterton. I loved the tale of Hansel and Gretel as a kid and now having watched it being turned into this is just utter brilliance, I expected an hour and a half of a cheesy movie, but I thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend!
5 A SENSITIVE AND GRIPPING MOVIEPosted: 01/04/2013This film shocked me by surprise. I loved the acting from the leads Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence, particularly from Jennifer Lawrence, this is her best film since The Hunger Games. She bottled up her emotions for Pat, Bradley Cooper's character.The movie is very gripping and necessary, the directing was fab and the ending was just so beautiful, definitely worth it!
5 FACE YOUR PAST, FIGHT YOUR FUTUREPosted: 06/02/2013This film definitely delivers the promised action, from the start it is made clear what a Looper is and what they are used for. As I got deeper into the film I found myself stunned with how good I was finding it. The acting was great from Willis, Gordon-Levitt and Blunt. The script and storyline was very solid and different and the effects were just something else. This is an absolutely great movie, but watch this with an empty mind, this requires your full attention for its action packed hour and 50 minutes.
4 LET'S GET PITCH SLAPPED!Posted: 19/01/2013Pitch Perfect, a fine, funny and feel-good movie. Aswell as the talented voices of the whole cast, it was also very funny - Fat Amy had me in stitches with laughter, she was hilarious! I have no doubt in recommending this movie to anyone, boy or girl.
2 THE STORY OF A CHILD AND HIS SONPosted: 19/01/2013I found this movie quite tiring to watch, I remember the days when I used to find Adam Sandler funny, the last performance he gave which made me laugh was 2011 film Just Go With It, since then he has gone massively downhill. Moving onto this, this was just not funny at all, it had a funny enough plot but just wasn't funny at all. I mentioned above that this movie was very tiring to watch and lacked the amount of comedy that is needed in an Adam Sandler movie. Don't be watching this expecting to laugh your pants off, cos it just won't. I am massively sorry to say this as a huge fan of Adam Sandler, but how can he pull his latest movies off as comedy?
3 'WE ARE INFINITE'Posted: 19/01/2013I viewed this movie through no choice of my own. I started watching it and thought why is it called The Perks of Being a Wallflower? By the end of the movie I got that, this film is a completely heartwarming and feel good romance, it is very sweet and emotional in places but in others I found it quite slow and boring. Acting, particularly from Logan Lerman (Percy Jackson and The Lightning Thief) and Emma Watson (Harry Potter) stuck out and which is probably why I am giving this movie 3 stars, not 2 as I felt that they made the movie, but nonetheless the chemistry between all the actors were great.
4 HE IS THE LAW, YOU ARE SENTENCED TO SEE THIS!Posted: 18/01/2013Behave citizens, the Judge is in the house, Judge Dredd and rookie Judge Anderson are trapped in Peach Trees, a 200 storey slum tower block ran by drugs lord Ma-Ma, she demands the building is sealed and the two judges killed.To sum this movie up, it is a great, yet gory actioner, I didn't get to see this in 3d, but I wish I had. Karl Urban plays the part of Judge Dredd perfectly, he shows no emotion at all throughout the film, which is hard to uphold during a movie, the backing role of Judge Anderson (played by Olivia Thirlby) was also great.Overall, gore, action, but quite a few pointless and unexplained kills, or I missed the explanation of the kills of random residents and the judges, Dredd and Anderson requested as back-up part way through the film, if you watch this, look out for the explanation of these kills, cos I sure didn't hear the reasoning, this is why I am giving this movie a 4. Great movie, would recommend to anyone.
4 RIDE LIKE HELLPosted: 12/01/2013Awesome movie, Joseph Gordon-Levitt plays a messenger who delivers via bike, when he is given an envelope, he attracts a cop who follows him throughout the city, he is trying to get the envelope. The mystery is we do not know what is in this envelope and how important it is to this cop.The movie starts with a flashback of Wilee (Gordon-Levitt) being hit by a car whilst riding, which gives us a sense how the movie is going to end, it kind of opens and closes the movie, the rest is simply, he's riding round, gets given the envelope and he is then followed by a cop. Give it a watch, it's a good film, maybe just for a one-time watch.
5 ORIGINAL AND FRIGHTENINGPosted: 03/01/2013What can I say, this is a very clever horror film, reading the reviews I knew from the start it was going to be very scary, which it was. I thought I'd give this a watch because I'm a fan of Paranormal Activity and Insidious, but this, this was scarier than both of them combined, it had me glued from the start, the plot is very absorbing and clever. I didn't know the scares were coming, Which was very surprising, I felt very pleased after watching this film, as it lived upto my expectations, 5 stars. Definitely give this a watch horror fans!

CVRx@ Names Philippe Wanstok Chief Commercial Officer
CVRx, Inc., a privately-held medical device company, has appointed Philippe Wanstok to the newly created position of Chief Commercial Officer, effective July 16, 2012. In this role, Mr. Wanstok will have worldwide responsibility for the commercial launch of CVRx's Barostim neoT product. CVRx has received CE Mark approval for the Barostim neo and it is currently available in Germany, Italy, The Netherlands, Switzerland and Austria.
"We are thrilled to have Philippe join the CVRx team," said Nadim Yared, President and CEO of CVRx. "Philippe's consistently superb track record of accomplishments in the active implantable medical device market makes him ideally suited to lead CVRx's worldwide commercial activities." Wanstok brings 20 years of medical device experience to CVRx. Most recently, he served as the International General Manager of Cardiac Rhythm Disease Management - Commercial Operations at Medtronic, leading an international team of 3,000 colleagues generating more than $2.4 billion of revenues in active implantable devices.
Wanstok began his career with Medtronic in France, where he helped establish and build the CRDM business. He also worked at Guidant, where he served in a variety of management roles during which he established successful country and regional operations in France and Spain, built highly capable sales organizations and developed strong distribution networks. After Guidant's merger with Boston Scientific, Wanstok served as Vice President of International Marketing for Boston Scientific, where he established and launched marketing strategies for all international geographies.
"The Barostim neo is an unparalleled technology for treating hypertension and heart failure," said Wanstok. "I am very excited to join CVRx to lead the commercial activities for this unique, game-changing therapy." Wanstok holds a Masters degree in Economics from the Universite Paris-Assas and a doctorate in Finance and International Marketing from the Univesite Paris-Sobonne.
Barostim neo Therapy The Barostim neo uses CVRx-patented technology that is designed to trigger the body's own natural blood flow regulation system to treat hypertension and heart failure. The system works by electrically activating the baroreceptors, the body's natural blood pressure sensors that regulate cardiovascular function. These baroreceptors are located on the carotid artery. When activated by the Barostim neo, signals are sent through neural pathways to the brain, which responds by telling the: -- Arteries to relax, making it easier for blood to flow through the body and reducing cardiac exertion; -- Heart to slow down, allowing more time for the organ to fill with blood; and -- Kidneys to reduce fluid in the body, lowering both excessive blood pressure and workload on the heart.
The Barostim neo can be adjusted to meet each patient's individual therapy needs, making it the only CE Mark-approved, personalized medical device therapy for the treatment of hypertension.
About Hypertension In Europe, hypertension affects an estimated 40 percent of adults, or 154 million people(1) , and in the United States, hypertension affects 76.4 million people.(2) Worldwide, hypertension is estimated to cause one in every eight deaths.(2) It is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease, morbidity and mortality. Twenty-five percent of people with hypertension cannot adequately control their hypertension with medications and lifestyle modifications.(3),(4) It is a disease that needs new treatment solutions.
About Heart Failure In heart failure, heart function is impaired, resulting in shortness of breath, exercise intolerance and fluid retention. In the United States, heart failure is estimated to affect 5.7 million adults.
Overall, heart failure is associated with a four-fold increased risk in death and a six to nine times increased risk of sudden cardiac death. The direct and indirect costs of heart failure are estimated to reach $44.6 billion annually in the United States by 2015.(2) About CVRx CVRx, Inc. is a privately-held company that is headquartered in Minneapolis. The company has developed the Barostim neo for the treatment of high blood pressure and heart failure. For more information, visit www.cvrx.com.

Unrealistic fees for WA recreational fishers
This petition will be used to lobby the state government of Western Australia to reconsider the unreasonable recreational fishing licence fees introduced by Minister Norman Moore.
The petition has been set up by an individual to facilitate the voicing of concerns of local Western Australian recreational boat fishers.

Gazza, Australia
2 years ago Comments: the fees are rediculusly HIGH
Joe Hughes, Australia
4 years ago Comments: I have no issue for what is far and reasonable. The fact is for most boaties that i know, there is more to life than just fishing, as we all lead busy lives with families and work commitments. I own a boat and I'm lucky to take it out once a month, whether it's due to outside commitments or because the weather doesn't suit. To top it off there is a two month clousure where we can't target the demersal spicies in any case. All anyone wants is for the govenment to be far and reasonable, charging excessive amounts will only allow the very few that can afford it to fish and deffinately not whole families. Just remember it wasn't so long ago where it was considered a way to enjoy time with the family and allow the children to learn and appreciate what fishing is all about, definately not if the current proposal goes ahead. I see yesterday in IGA the excessive supply of In-season Pink Snapper has driven the price down to $11.99/kg, That's sell price to the public! I wonder what the wholesale cost is, $4 maybe. How is this justified when the ture cost to recreational boaties is more like $30/kg when you taking into account all the licensing and operating costs, the government should reconsider the catch rate of Pro Fishermen as they are basically giving the fish away at that price.
