Happy Valentine's Day? Who's your dream Jewish valentine? Online dating site Jewcier.com polled members, and unsurprisingly, 65 percent of men would most want to go out with Bar Refaeli, while more than half of women chose The Voice coach and Maroon 5 soloist Adam Levine. Other high-ranking members of the tribe were Mila Kunis, Scarlett Johansson, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and James Franco.Saturday Night Live is always good for a laugh, but the sketch comedy show came under fire this week for its jokes about Chuck Hagel's Secretary of Defense confirmation hearings and Republicans' attempts to one-up each other in their support of Israel. The sketch was not aired, but was posted online. Anti-Defamation League Director Abe Foxman says "the skit could play into the worst kind of ideas, even reinforcing pernicious notions of Jewish control of government in the vein of those routinely espoused by anti-Semitic conspiracy theorists." Columnist Jeffrey Goldberg took the opposite opinion, tweeting: "No, that SNL skit wasn't anti-Semitic, and yes, the controversy over it is incredibly boring." Watch and judge for yourself: For less controversial jokes, check out this clip of YouTube comedian Billy Eichner and actress Rashida Jones (who's also Jewish – her mother is actress Peggy Lipton) playing "Whistle-Blow that Jew." Jones plays a game in which she has to identify Jewish celebrities' real names. Check it out:In the music world, Raiz, leader of the Italian band Almamegretta, refuses to play the world-famous San Remo Music Festival, because he converted to Judaism and is slotted to play on Friday night. The band has yet to decide what to do, and will either perform without him or use a pre-recorded video. Speaking of Italy, "Barbie Loves Israel" is the name of a photo project on display in Milan's popular Kitsch Bar. Artists Enrico Pescantini and Maria Giovanna Callea traveled around Israel, shooting photos of Barbie and Ken in famous sites.On the other side of the pond, Bulletproof Stockings, a rock band made up of female Chabad hassids, is making waves in the gentile world, with coverage in The New Yorker and The New York Post. The band doesn't perform in front of men, because of religious restrictions, but you can find their Fiona Apple-esque songs online.

JMO but it's going to be soft guidance that kills this stock!!!! Negative earnings growth!!!!
Hopefully going down tomorrow b/c it's not going down now. In spite of the weak guidance
My opinion is that this is the best stock in quite a while to sell short a strangle option. Put strike at 62.50 and call at 75 just to capture the earnings volatility. The PE is not high but at same time pressure from retailers like AMZN whether real or imagined will suppress PE to below market multiples. This strangle puts you at forward PE's of between 12 to 15. Other positives are that this market cap could be taken private easily. Plus they are sound financially. Negatives are they pay no dividend so that hurts downside support somewhat. I laid out my strategy. What is this board doing to play earnings?
Well, at least you got the last digit right. Now you can work on the first.
Sentiment: Buy
Thanks for the UNBIASED, OBJECTIVE opinion...shorty !!!!!!!!! Say hello to IGNORE...

A creed is a set of fundamental beliefs and guiding principles of a religion. A religion or sect differs from another if its beliefs and principles are different. At the present time we find many religions and numerous sects of each religion in this world, while the Creator of this world has prescribed a simple and straight forward religion for us. He sent many Messengers and Prophets to various nations at different times to propagate His Message to mankind. But the people after those Messengers and Prophets changed their beliefs, thus deviating from the original religion. This went on until Allah sent his Last Messenger (S) to mankind.
So it is our duty now to guard against deviation from the fundamental beliefs and principles of the only one religion, Islam, that was sent by Allah from the existence of this world.
This book clearly defines the creed which the Last Messenger (S) has taught us. We should adhere to this creed to save our religion and to worship Allah according to the correct way which was the way of the Prophet (S), his Companions, the successors of the Companions, and the followers of the successors.
May Allah help us all in this great task which requires our full attention as our whole life has to be spent according to it.
Abdul Malik Mujahid
General Manager, Darussalam.

Reviewer: Shaheenur from Woodbridge, United States on 09/10/2013
A good book of creed presenting the beliefs of the salaf. I would also recommend Muslim Creed, by Suhaib Hasan.
Reviewer: on 04/18/2008
Great for non-muslims, and new muslims to learn the true creed upon which correct faith should be built upon - simple and easy to read.
Reviewer: on 12/18/2007
Explains the basics of the Creed every Muslim should believe. Invaluable. All Muslims need to read this since there's so many deviated groups out there.

Good Morning, Broncos fans! Denver's upcoming trip to Baltimore has loomed as a big game since the moment the 2012 schedule was released, but the showdown has become more crucial by the day.
Although the matchup will likely go a long way to determining who the AFC's number-two seed is, things have suddenly gotten desperate for the Ravens (9-4), who remain stuck on nine wins after yesterday's 31-28 loss to Washington (7-6). It was Baltimore's second consecutive loss, and things won't get any easier for them; after the Broncos, they'll host the Giants and then head to Cincinnati to close out the regular season.
Adding to the pain of having lost two straight nailbiters, the already banged-up Ravens lost two more of their best players to injury yesterday - an ankle sprain left Baltimore guard Marshal Yanda on crutches after the game, and Jeff Legwold says it could be a season-ending injury for the Pro Bowler. LB Jameel McClain suffered a neck injury that had him in serious pain, although X-rays were negative.
Good Morning, Broncos fans! Many Broncos fans are disappointed that Chargers owner Dean Spanos has reportedly decided to can A.J. Smith and Norv Turner once this season's done with.
This is an understandable sentiment, what with the team's recent descent to and below mediocrity, and Smith's construction of one of the worst offensive lines you'll see.
Who wouldn't want Smith and his legendary hubris to continue running things? The presence in the division of Peyton Manning, whose family Smith openly despises (also understandably, what with Archie and Eli's Elway-like power move of 2004), only figured to cloud A.J.'s judgment even more.
But here's the thing - do you know who Spanos has been grooming to run his team's football operations for several years?
Continue reading "Outside Denver, AFCW is Nepotism Central Lard"
Happy Friday, Broncos fans! Ten wins doesn't sound like that much. Broncos fans are rather accustomed to their team reaching that plateau, as they've now done so 18 times since 1977, the year of Denver's first SB team.
But since the last double-digit campaign of 2005, there had been five seasons of mediocrity, and one of pure ineptitude.
This time, it's only taken 13 games to reach that mark.
After a 2-3 start.
As expected, the Broncos (10-3) dispatched the host Raiders (3-10) with relative ease last night in a 26-13 road win (Game Book, ANS box score) that places them one half-game ahead of New England and Baltimore, and alone as the AFC's #2 seed, pending those team's Week 14 games.
Good Morning, Broncos fans! Wesley Woodyard was listed as doubtful on Denver's last injury report for the week, but he did not travel to Oakland, and will not play tonight.
Brandon Stokley, who was limited in practice yesterday, says he's getting better, but will test his ailing hip tonight and be a game-time decision.
For Oakland, PR/CB Phillip Adams was cleared after having suffered a concussion against Cleveland; if he's unable to go, struggling WR Denarius Moore would return punts in his stead.
Safeties Matt Giordano and Mike Mitchell had been cleared from their concussions a day earlier, and both are expected to play; Dennis Allen returned to the team yesterday morning and oversaw practice.
Meanwhile, the Raiders issued a scathing statement as a denial of Hub Arkush's report that they were talking with Jon Gruden about a return to coaching.
Continue reading "PMFM so good it's like he's cheating Lard"
Good Morning, Broncos fans! Raiders Week has something of a different feel this time around, at least to us.
For one, the time between games is only half what it normally is - so there's hardly time to get frothed up about the classic rivalry. And of course, it's also softened by the Raiders not being a very good team.
But there's also the matter of feeling sympathy on multiple levels for Oakland's head coach.
Dennis Allen was Denver's DC for only a season, but the job he did in helping turn the Broncos defense around, his intelligence, and well-spokenness all combine to make us root for the man on some level, even if he's leading the Silver and Black.
Sadly, Dennis lost his 66-year-old father Grady this week, and for that, our thoughts go out to him and his family. Of course, John Fox and Champ Bailey offered the same on the part of the Broncos.
Good Morning, Broncos fans! Here we are, two days after the team nailed down a big win and the AFCW title, and they have to head out on the road and play again in two days from now.
Welcome to the NFL in 2012.
It's a brutal request of these players, to put their bodies through the punishment of two regular-season games within the span of five days. Two games in seven or eight days is difficult enough - to recover from the first game's physical and emotional toll, to prepare for the coming matchup, to travel, and suit up again. For his part, John Fox says he won't be putting his guys in full pads this week.
But at least it's the Raiders, and the bright side is the Broncos will afterward have ten days to heal and get ready for the biggest matchup left on their schedule - a road trip to Baltimore and a fight for what is likely at best the AFC's #2 seed.
Continue reading "Ex-boy band stars not welcome at Qualcomm Lard"
Good Morning, Broncos fans! The 2011 Broncos needed 16 games, three tiebreakers, smoke, and mirrors, to win the AFCW, and did so while topping the 30-point mark just two times, and being outscored by 81 points.
Peyton Manning's Broncos (9-3) require no gimmicks or common opponent calculations, and have already clinched the division outright after just 12 games, thanks to their 31-23 victory (Gamebook, ANS box score) over the visiting Bucs (6-6). Through the regular season's first three quarters, Denver has already scored 30 or more points eight times, and have outscored their opponents by 105 in total.
It took Manning only 12 games to set a new Broncos single-season standard for touchdown passes, with one to Mitch Unrein (ZOMG) and two to Demaryius Thomas (what else is new?) giving him 29 on the season. The old Denver record had been 27, shared by John Elway (1997) and Jake Plummer (2004).
Good Morning, Broncos fans. The Chiefs and Panthers will play their game today as scheduled, some 28 hours after their starting middle linebacker unfathomably killed the mother of his three-month-old daughter, before taking his own life at Chiefs headquarters.
It doesn't feel like continuing with the game today is the right thing to do, yet the league left it up to the Chiefs, whose head coach (who witnessed Jovan Belcher's suicide) and captains voted unanimously to play.
Could they really be equipped to make such a decision? That's doubtful, considering what they are dealing with. Kansas City - the team, and the fans - will go through the habitual motions of a football Sunday, but will anyone really be thinking about football? It's hard to believe they will. Then again, would playing the game tomorrow instead of today make any positive difference? Not necessarily.
Belcher's high school coach and agent wonder what went wrong for a young man they describe as intelligent, hard-working, generous, and caring - a person most of us knew little or nothing about prior to yesterday.
Good Morning, Broncos fans. There's some horrifying news coming out of Kansas City today.
Chiefs linebacker Jovan Belcher reportedly killed his girlfriend at a residence this morning, before going to Arrowhead, where he committed suicide in the parking lot, apparently in the presence of Chiefs coach Romeo Crennel and GM Scott Pioli.
Belcher was a fourth-year linebacker who joined Kansas City after going undrafted out of Maine in 2009; he was born and raised on Long Island, in New York.
Our thoughts go out to the families involved, and the Chiefs organization, players, and fans.
The team is scheduled to host the Panthers tomorrow, and the league has not yet decided whether to go ahead with the game.
Good Morning, Broncos fans! Adderall has become a hot topic in the NFL this season.
A slew of players have been suspended this season for apparent abuse of the ADHD med, including Broncos tight end Virgil Green. Most players have challenged their bans, with varying levels of success. Excuses for positive tests by players have ranged from needing to stay awake during long drives, to incorrectly filed paperwork with the league, to urine sample switcheroos.
Outside theories on the rise in positive tests have included players needing a boost to trudge through their lengthy playbooks, or seeking an awareness edge during games, or covering for a more sinister substance (ie steroids) by citing the more societally acceptable Adderall.

Date of Stay: June, 2014 - $23.00
Paid $22.50, accepting only cash or check. No credit cards. Nice park but only has 4 transient sites. Our site required wheels in the air to get level. The problem was no power and nobody in office because of the weekend. The voltage was way over the 132 volt limit so the Progressive Industries power management system would shut off to protect our RV. We dry camped. We camped at Meadowbrook Seniors RV Park (55+ park) in a Motorhome.Undo
Date of Stay: May, 2014 - $14.00
This is a senior park, with some pull-throughs for short-term stays and back-in lots for longer-term renting. The lots are a good size and some have sheds. There is a pond with ducks to enjoy! The clubhouse has a pool table and many books, videos and puzzles to use. There are nightly activities and weekly/monthly special events. The office and maintenance staff are very friendly and helpful. Definitely would stay here again! We camped at Meadowbrook Seniors RV Park (55+ park) in a Fifth Wheel.Undo
Date of Stay: August, 2012 - $12.00
This park is one of the quietest parks we have stayed in. The office staff is helpful and the laundry room is clean. Wi-Fi works well in the clubhouse, which was air conditioned and comfortable. There is a hiking trail around the park, affording nice views for the effort of the climb. Nightly rate reflects monthly rate paid. We camped at Meadowbrook Seniors RV Park (55+ park) in a Fifth Wheel.Undo
Date of Stay: February, 2012 - $18.00
This is a very clean and well maintained campground. Staff is friendly and a propane truck travels around inside the park filling your propane bottles. You are not allowed to use your own washing machine but the cost of the washers and dryers is very reasonable. There are not very many spots for people staying a few days but each has a picnic table and tile-like patio. They have a catch and release fishing pond. Every Wednesday you can meet other park residents at a coffee and pastry hour. We will stay here again. You can stay arrange for month-long stays too in this over 55 RV park. We camped at Meadowbrook Seniors RV Park (55+ park) in a Fifth Wheel.Undo
Date of Stay: January, 2012 - $17.00
Based on Passport America rate. This is a nice over 55 park that has several spaces for overnighters. We have stayed here several times and really like it. The park is nice and clean, is a gated park, sites are gravel with a nice concrete pad and picnic table. We camped at Meadowbrook Seniors RV Park (55+ park) in a Motorhome.Undo
Date of Stay: August, 2011 - $35.00
Most enjoyable RV park in the area. Quietly secluded just minutes from both I-15 and I-215 freeways. Nestled among panoramic hills and challenging walking trails. Primarily a Senior 55+ membership resident park, they welcome over-nighters and short stay. Very helpful staff and friendly residents along tree-lined, paved access roads and green walkways.

Niacin, also known as vitamin B-3, is commonly found in fish and grains. It is important for energy production, and also helps keep the nervous system, digestive system, skin, hair and eyes healthy. Niacin assists in the conversion of food to energy. As a water soluble vitamin, Niacin is not stored in the body and therefore requires continuous supplementation.

Grace Lutheran Salad Luncheon is Sept. 6
When many people hear the word "salad," leafy greens and vegetables are often the first images that come to mind.
However, a local organization is demonstrating that a salad can be so much more than just the stereotypical rabbit food, consisting primarily of garden produce.

Manipulated soya beans: How can we learn what's in the food we're about to eat?
There are major changes taking place in the way our food is produced. British shoppers have indicated they are suspicious of them. Ministers have expressed similar doubts. Just this week they blocked the planting of these crops in Britain and also declared their intention to tighten up EU procedures for approving them.
Soya goes into 60 per cent of the processed food we eat. Soya flour is used to lengthen shelf-life and improve colour in bread, pizza bases, pastry crusts, biscuits and noodles. Soya oil is used in cooking oil, margarine and spreads. And a third substance, soya lecithin, is used as an emulsifier or stabiliser, and to improve "mouth feel" in products such as mayonnaise and even chocolate.
Although it is just one of a number of modified crops now being developed, soya is the farthest forward. Within the next few years, we will also see modified maize, sugar beet and oilseed rape, among others, produced mainly by half a dozen big biotechnology companies.
Ask Joe Public whether he wants to eat genetically modified food, and the answer will usually be "No", as a number of surveys have shown. But this story is not about what the public wants. It's about what the public is about to get.
Let us look at how modified soya has come to be developed. Monsanto, an agrochemical company based in St Louis, sells a highly successful glyphosate- based weedkiller called Roundup, whose US patent runs out in the year 2,000. But Monsanto must now be confident that its product will continue to sell. Why? Because it has developed a modified bean that can increase farmers' soya yields by 7 per cent if they spray with Roundup. Forty per cent of the world's soya is grown in America, including the vast majority of what Britain imports.
But how can Monsanto be sure that farmers won't just buy the beans and spray them with a cheaper imitation brand? This is where it gets clever. Monsanto licenses its technology to seed producers, who then sell on to farmers. Farmers pay a small fee for the use of the seed and also sign an agreement that says they must spray their crops with branded Roundup. By the time the patent runs out, the British Retail Consortium estimates that 90 per cent of the US crop could be treated in this way. Brilliant.
The men from Monsanto say this is not their motivation. To quote Colin Merritt, the company's UK Technical Manager: "We are moving into a business which is based on seed rather than purely based on chemicals. Many of our other developments are entirely different with just seed and no chemical involved." This new technology actually reduces the amount of chemicals sprayed on crops, Mr Merritt explains. And it is approved by the American Food and Drugs Administration (FDA), the European Union and the British government.
So where's the beef? Why are the environmentalists making such a big fuss?
Despite the regulatory system's approval, there are some very knowledgeable people who feel we do not yet know enough about the possible health risks involved in a range of modified crops. For example Professor Philip James, author of the proposals for the Government's Food Standards Agency and Director of the Rowett Research Institute at the University of Aberdeen, said on a Scottish BBC documentary this month: "The perception that everything is totally straightforward and safe is totally naive." He added: "Once the BSE problem is solved, if is is solved, then I think that the big public concern is going to be about the huge array of genetic manipulations ... and how we tackle that in a proper, responsible way."
And while the FDA is renowned for its tough attitude, it does sometimes approve foods that remain banned in the UK. Crisps made with Olestra, a fat substitute which passes straight through the body but which, it is claimed, can strip the body of essential nutrients and cause stomach cramps or diahorrea, are on sale in the US but not here.
As yet, there is no clear evidence to suggest genetically modified food is generally dangerous to human health. But, as the Consumers' Association argues, the effects will be hard to discern when we are all eating the stuff. Jeff Rooker, the Agriculture Minister, says that if the Government had been elected a year or 18 months earlier it might have demanded segregation of these crops. Now he must hope that government research will show there are no potential health problems.
"If they don't come up with something I for one will not be prepared to give robust answers about it all being safe for ever more," he says.
Then there is the question of environmental impact. What if the beans cross-pollinate with wild plants - possibly wild soya - to create indestructible weeds? Monsanto says its gene cannot transfer in this way, but environmentalists have their doubts.
The battle to bring genetically modified soya to Britain now centres on a PR war, pitting the resources of Monsanto against such organisations as the Consumers' Association, Greenpeace and a group called Wholefoods against Genetix Foods. Monsanto employs a PR firm, Lowe Bell, but you will rarely see the company's name on any publicity material. Its representative can be found in the 1997 phone book under Soya Bean Information Centre. If you phone this centre, you will find its name is now the Plant Biotech Information Centre. And it is based at 59 Russell Square, London: the address of Lowe Bell. Alternatively, the switchboard at Monsanto's headquarters in High Wycombe will put you through there.
Or you might like to get some information from the Food and Drinks Federation's "Food for Our Future" campaign, to which Monsanto says it gives financial support, although the FDF denies this.
What if you still don't like the idea of genetically modified food? This is an issue about consumers' rights, but consumers can only exercise their right to choose what they buy if they are fully informed. And even though the supermarkets plan to label products which contain soya as having genetically modified material in them, they will do so only at the bottom of a list of ingredients, and only when they redesign their packaging.
If ministers are really concerned about this issue, as they say they are, why not insist on tobacco style "health warnings," prominently placed and in large letters? They could say: "Warning: No one really knows what genetically modified food can do to your health."
Then shoppers could make up their own minds about what they want to eat. If Monsanto has won its PR battle for our hearts and minds, we will buy the products regardless. But if it has not, sooner or later they will disappear from our shelves.

Couples Question: Who Keeps the Ring if the Wedding's Called Off?
Updated: 09/30/2007 - It's a big question in many states. If you get engaged and then the wedding gets called off, who keeps the ring? While Kentucky does not have a law that decides who gets the ring, in Tennessee the debate may soon be over.

Hotline Miami's thrillingly brutal gameplay is stretched to the point of breaking in this aesthetically pleasing, but otherwise disappointing sequel.
Battlefield Hardline did not crash during our tests and appears to function precisely as expected at this time.
There's a word for games like The Order: 1886. Rental.
Game »
consists of 7 releases.
Released Oct 28, 2003
As prolific in video games as it is in real life, this iconic Russian workhorse is a mainstay of virtual firepower.
A kind of protective clothing.
Assault Rifle refers to a basic design of a weapon that combines the abilities of older long-range rifles and the rapid fire of sub-machine guns. Common designs include the M-16, M-4, AK47 (and 74), and the L85A1.
Garments worn by Military or Para-Military organizations for combat related situations. These garments range from the Marines heavy duty Camouflaged battle dress they use in the Middle East to the SWAT uniforms our police departments use such as the DEA or U.S. Marshalls.
A clip is a piece of metal that holds cartridges together for easy loading into a magazine. It is also used erroneously to describe the magazine itself.
Crates sometimes contain things!
A grenade is an explosive device traditionally thrown by hand, but may also be propelled by a rifle or launcher.
Considered one of the most frequent and controversial implements of destruction in video games and real life, guns are devices that fire projectiles with explosive force.
A spring loaded box which holds ammunition for a firearm. Often referred to as a "clip" although this is not technically correct.
Night Vision Goggles are used by armed forces and other military personnel to allow the user to see clearly in dark or even pitch-black areas.
From an item container in Final Fight, to Roper's favorite weapon in Double Dragon, and even an obstacle in Street Fighter II's elusive bonus round, the barrel is one multi-faceted game object.
A pistol is a very basic hand-held side arm, usually used in case of low ammo or tricky situations. They have appeared in many types of games.
Steel reinforcement bars used to add tensile strength to concrete structures. In a gaming context Rebars usually appear in various forms as makeshift weapons, most famously in the Condemned series of video games.
A red dot sight (also referred to as a scope) is a sight placed on firearms. The aiming reticule is represented as an illuminated red dot in the middle of the sight.
Bags filled with sand. Often used for fortification in war zones or flooding.
The ultimate weapon attachment that uses telescope optics to enlarge distant targets thus increasing your accuracy.
Vessel for transportation through water.
The most powerful weapon at short range. Effective against Zombies, Nazis, Demons, etc. Videogame shotguns tend to have exaggerated inaccuracy at long range- real life shotguns are still fairly accurate over a decent distance, while videogame shotguns rarely go more than fifteen feet before becoming completely ineffective.
Mask used originally for skiing, it also can be used more commonly to cover ones identity without slowing one down
The weapon of choice for accuracy at long distances. The sniper rifle's slow rate of fire makes it ineffective for close range combat, but its high calibre round ensures that it inflicts maximum damage against the target.
A firearm capable of firing pistol ammunition automatically. Favored for shorter distances, or dealing death indoors.

If they can storm enemy beaches, they certainly won't let a little barricade – or even a government shutdown – stand in their way. Join the discussion: Share a memory to honor our veterans A group of World War II veterans from Mississippi had chartered an $80,000 flight to Washington, D.C., to visit the National World War II Memorial. They arrived Oct. 1 to find to find the monument blocked off, a casualty of the government shutdown caused by the standoff …

A government shutdown could take an especially painful toll on one group of Americans: veterans and their families who are waiting for benefits claims to be processed. More than 700,000 claims are pending with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. A shutdown could swell that number because the VA could have to furlough 20,000 workers who oversee claims, USA Today reports. True, that's a fraction of the more than 300,000 employees who make the VA the second-largest federal office, after …

Police responding to a 911 call on July 19 found four men – ages 79, 74, 65 and 54 – being held in "deplorable conditions" behind a door that was nailed shut in a north Houston neighborhood. Sgt. Steven Murdock told the Associated Press that at least one of the men was a military veteran, and that their living conditions were like a "dungeon." Murdock said the men told investigators that their Social Security checks were being taken from them, …

The Department of Defense doesn't want to retire employees prematurely because of their moral lapses. To instruct them in right from wrong, DOD compiles the Encyclopedia of Ethical Failure, short object lessons that retell the real-life shortcomings of their own workers, and those from other government agencies. The surprise is that the newly updated compendium can be laugh-out-loud funny. Here are three examples, verbatim, from the latest edition: Employees Fail to Profit from Red Tape Two workers at the Veterans …

Meet the "un-politician." When we telephoned Richard Wills, the 93-year-old mayor of Negaunee, Mich., he wasn't all that sure that he even wanted to talk about himself. And he was especially reticent to talk about his service in World War II, where he fought in five battles, including the landing on Omaha Beach, on "D-Day Plus Two." It was a friend's idea, not his, to reach out around the country to find out if Wills is America's oldest mayor. (Seemed …

As we head into the long Memorial Day weekend, we honor those who sacrificed their lives for our country. Let's also remember the veterans who fought alongside those who made the ultimate sacrifice. They made sacrifices of their own while fighting for our country, to secure our safety. They left their families, often for long periods of time. Many were injured and continue to have health care needs. Today, let's think about helping those veterans – and their families – …

Quality control (QC) specialists are in charge of supervising quality control for their organization and troubleshooting quality-related issues as they arise. They also perform quality-related tests to ensure products comply with company and legal standards. Quality control specialists need to possess strong communications skills to relay important quality control concepts to technical and non-technical professionals. Additionally, they must have excellent analytical abilities to identify quality problems and develop appropriate solutions in a timely manner. In all tasks, they must follow relevant safety regulations.Read More...
Quality control specialists' main responsibilities also include providing quality control-related input to managers and employees within their organization, as well as using a computer to measure outputs, measure materials, and perform deviations control. They are also in charge of maintaining accurate quality records for future reference and providing support to the testing and inspection processes as needed. Quality control specialists generally work in a production or manufacturing setting, and they must wear protective gear as required.
A bachelor's degree in a related field is typically required for this job, as is experience in a related position. Certifications related to quality control may be beneficial. Quality control specialists must be organized and pay close attention to detail to optimize quality processes and increase efficiency. They need to work well in a team environment, as well as on their own with minimal supervision.
Quality Control Specialists generally report applying a varied skill set to their work. Most notably, skills in Quality Assurance / Quality Control, Microsoft Office, Microsoft Word, and Microsoft Excel are correlated to pay that is above average. Skills that are correlated to lower pay, on the other hand, include Windows Operating System General Use and Microsoft Excel. Those proficient in Microsoft Excel are, more often than not, also skilled in Microsoft Office and Quality Assurance / Quality Control.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
Those in the early stages of their career can expect to make around $39K; however, individuals with five to 10 years of experience bring in $47K on average — a distinctly larger sum. The average pay reported by folks with 10 to 20 years of experience is around $51K. For some reason, Quality Control Specialists with more than two decades of experience report lower paychecks overall; the median sum in this group sits near $49K.
For those looking to make money, Quality Control Specialists in Dallas enjoy an exceptional pay rate, 15 percent above the national average. Quality Control Specialists will also find cushy salaries in Chicago (+15 percent) and Philadelphia (+14 percent). The smallest paychecks in the market, 2 percent south of the national average, can be found in San Diego.

Have downloaded Picasa: How do I upload pics here from Picasa?
Ok, I downloaded Picasa and have been storing pictures there for years, so I'm glad to hear that 'somehow' I can upload them from Picasa to here.......
But how?
So anyway, I asked this question a few times over the last few months over at the dahlia forum and elsewhere, and one person sent me a link to this site's picture download instructions.
So, the instruction page tells me to join this certain web photo site, and so I clicked on the link there, but was sent to another site telling me that the web photo site is closed, and the site name might be for sale, so it was a dead end.
But the instruction page also told me of a 'simpler way' to upload pics. They said to look at the forum list, and find the forums with a camera symbol beside them, those forums will accept photos. So, I go back to the dahlia forum, which had a camera symbol, but I see nothing about uploading photos!
So, another person had mentioned another site called Photobucket. Well, I go and join there, look through the site to familiarize myself with it, then go and try uploading photos.... But after I searched, found and clicked on the photos I wanted to upload there, and then here, the site caused my computer to slow down considerably, then even after 45 minutes, not a single picture would download there!
So, I went and joined Flickr.... I was able to join it and upload pics there, but I dont see any way to send them here!
Also, another person told me to 'simply' include the hotmail codes! But they look something like this: **&%FE>>..)__h&^le??&^%kkd*65((2k++k4856z&%#(*&.....
Well, so I tried typing a bunch of random, cluttered numbers, symbols and letters, but 'surprisingly', my pics still didnt upload! Go figure..... (Just kidding, I didnt really try that!)
But anyway, I do have Picasa, so maybe once I've been taught the 496 'simple' steps to use Picasa for uploading, I'll finally be able to get it done!
By the way, I was able to figure out how to upload to the dahlia gallery, but that's different from the main forums, and it has an easy to locate area to search and upload pics. Plus, I was only able to do 1 picture.
I assume you have your pictures in various albums. This you must do, so let us know if you have the pictures that you wish to post on the forum in a named album, and that you are able to view them in your album on your computer. Then you can have your next lesson...;-)
I have my photos stored on Picasa web album, and here's how I upload my photos from Picasa to GW.
1 - I check that my albums are shared with "Limited, anyone with the link", if they're not Public;
2 - I open the photo that I want to upload;
3 - I look on the right side of the photo to locate "Link to this photo" and click on that;
4 - I high-light the codes in the box under "Embed image", then copy the codes;
5 - I return to my post on GW and paste the copied codes.
I always got my photos appeared in my post on here.
Hope that helps.
By the way, I'd like to share photo of my two bulbs recently received from Royal colors.
Great Looking Bulbs Xuan! Only Two?? If you haven't bloomed a Gervase before you are really going to love it! And Elvas can be really beautiful too. I have a 3 yr old bulb of Elvas that is just now poking up a bud for this season and I hope it's as lovely as the first year I bought it..subsequent years it's been rather pale. Can't wait to see yours..
Thanks for helping out with the Picasa issue...
Thanks Donna and Jodi.
I only have these two bulbs anew this year, but I still have a bunch of beautiful amies I grow from seeds which bloomed last year and are now sleeping in the fridge. I time them to bloom for Lunar New Year here.
I've seen photos of Elvas and Gervase so I'm looking forward to see their blooms in person.
By the way, Elvas has produced a spike already. Can't wait, indeed.

The 2012 Story
The Myths, Fallacies, and Truth Behind the Most Intriguing Date in History

On December 21, 2012, the Mesoamerican Long Count calendar, a 5,125-year cycle calendar system pioneered by the Maya, will come to an end. At the same time, the earth, the sun, and the center of the galaxy will come together in an extremely rare cosmic alignment. More and more people believe that the world as we know it will experience a transformation in 2012, but few are aware of the complete history or significance of the date. John Major Jenkins, among the most authoritative voices of the 2012 movement, has written a definitive explanation of one of the most thought-provoking phenomena of our time. Drawing from his own groundbreaking research (including his involvement in the modern reconstruction of Mayan 2012 cosmology) and more than two decades of extensive study of Mayan culture, Jenkins has created the crucial guide to understanding the story of 2012—an essential overview of the history, theory, cultures, and personalities that have brought this extraordinary idea into modern awareness. Jenkins provides illuminating answers to some of the most-asked questions about 2012, including:
- How did the early Maya devise the calendar that gives us the cycle ending in 2012, and how does it work?
- How did the calendar come to be rediscovered and reconstructed in our era?
- What controversies and intrigues surround the topic, and what do scholars and researchers have to say about them?
- How can we cut through all the noise about 2012 and gain true wisdom from the Mayan teachings about this moment?
John Major Jenkins is a pioneer of the 2012 movement. The author of nine previous books on the subject, he is credited with helping introduce the topic into the spiritual culture and was the first to voice the concept that 2012 coincides with a galactic alignment of earth, the sun, and the center of the galaxy. Jenkins has taught classes at the Institute of Maya Studies in Miami, the Maya Calendar Congress in Mexico, the Esalen Institute, Naropa University, and many other venues both nationally and abroad. His work has been widely discussed on national radio and television.

To kick off what we hope will be a year-long series to highlight the work our many fine writers contribute to the LA Progressive, we'd like to give you a fuller view of Georgianne Nienaber's life and work.
Progressive Media Advocates
Carole Bartolotto: The problem with concluding that GMOs are safe is that the argument for their safety rests solely on animal studies. These studies are offered as evidence that the debate over GMOs is over. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Steve Hochstadt: The Republicans in Congress, virtually all of whom publically deny that climate change is occurring, have just proposed a budget which cuts or reverses all the programs which might reduce the pace of warming.
Joe Mathews: Thanks to Xi Jinping, Chinese millionaires have propped up the state's sagging real estate market, universities, and companies.
