A multi-day severe weather outbreak, including tornadoes will continue in parts of the South and Midwest. Follow these tips from CNN for (hopefully) calm travels.
Figure out a plan B. Don't wait to get into the airport or the last rest stop before developing your backup plan. Do it now, while you're still in the safety of your own home.
Don't drive into a storm. Monitor your local and regional forecasts. If the weather report in your departure or arrival city advises staying put for safety reasons, consider not hitting the road.
Prepare for emergencies. If there's a possibility that bad weather could hit while you're on the road, make sure to have cold weather clothing and shoes, extra water and snacks, charged up devices, diapers for the little ones, a full tank of gas and flares in case you get stopped by weather.
Check your flight, no matter where you're going. Think you don't have to worry about bad weather because you're flying from sunny California to sunny Florida? Not so fast. That airplane you're picking up in San Diego may have been coming from Minneapolis or Chicago and get delayed due to weather. Check your aircraft's journey on your airline website, or Aviation Queen travel blogger Benet J. Wilson recommends the Flightview app to track your aircraft's path.
Use social media. Follow your airline and airport on social media, namely via Twitter and Facebook. Many airlines and airports post the speediest updates to their Twitter feeds, so start following them now, even if you don't use Twitter otherwise. Sign up for your airline alerts to get flight updates emailed to your smartphone.
Try rebooking your flight. Many airlines have teams devoted to tracking the weather and rearranging flight schedules to avoid bad winter weather. If the weather proves too dangerous for flight, airlines often offer customers the opportunity to rebook their flights to leave earlier or later free of charge, before you leave for the airport. Sometimes, the airlines will even waive fees to rebook customers who see the writing on the wall and call before the bad weather hits. No guarantees, but it's worth a try, said Airfare Watchdog President George Hobica.
Charge your devices. Expect crowds surrounding the electrical outlets at your departure airport to increase if your flight is delayed. And don't expect rest stops to share their outlets with you. Have a car charger and stash a power pack or a few battery chargers for your portable electronic devices (useful for driving or flying).
Stock up on snacks. Get non-perishable snacks and drinks for the car (if you're flying, avoid the drinks, but carry an empty water bottle to refill after you clear airport security). Granola bars, beef jerky, dried nuts and fruit and other protein-rich snacks can keep you and the children going without spending a fortune at rest stops or the airport. (Drivers can pack lunch in a cooler to reduce costs further.)
Do more than stand in line. If you're stranded at the airport, don't only go to the ticket counter. Use the NextFlight app and type in your departure and destination cities to get the next flights for the major airlines, Wilson said. Then, call the airline on your cellphone and give them your preferred options. You might get booked on another flight before you reach the front of the line. (Also consider nearby cities where you can rent a car and drive to your final destination.)
Stay home next year. "There are so many rookies out, a lot of first-timers at the airports. The planes are completely packed, and it's expensive," said travel expert Johnny "Jet" DiScala. He was talking about Thanksgiving, but the same certainly applies to Christmas.

Count keeps Haggas on an upward curve
While the woolly jumpers were trying to squeeze out the Flat season with some stirring performances at Aintree, Wincanton and Towcester yesterday, there was still some important clues for next year's Classics taking shape at venues as disparate as the San Siro and Yarmouth.
While the woolly jumpers were trying to squeeze out the Flat season with some stirring performances at Aintree, Wincanton and Towcester yesterday, there was still some important clues for next year's Classics taking shape at venues as disparate as the San Siro and Yarmouth.
No race was more important for Willie Haggas than the Gran Criterium in Milan in which Count Dubois gave the Newmarket trainer a cherished Group One victory and underlined the merit of the 2,000 Guineas and Derby favourite, Nayef, who had beaten him hollow by nearly seven lengths at Ascot last time.
"I am still shaking," said Haggas after the race. "I hoped he would win and the soft ground here certainly suited him. He stays well and was given a very good ride by Basil [Marcus]. The Italian Derby next season will be his target."
For Haggas the success was vindication of bold campaigning with his horses this season that has brought 45 winners in Britain and runner-up spot in the Group One Prix de l'Abbaye with Superstar Leo.
John Dunlop's Golden Snake completed a British double with a win in the Group One Gran Premio Del Jockey Club.
A trainer with less reason to celebrate was Aidan O'Brien, whose King's County finished a neck behind Count Dubois and who had to endure his three runners in Saturday's Racing Post Trophy being outspeeded by Dilshaan and Tamburlaine. O'Brien at least had the consolation of a success for his highly-touted Ishiguru in a £9,000 maiden race at Naas. Ishiguru started at odds of 2-9 and won by 11 lengths.
Tamburlaine, meanwhile, was the horse that punters wanted to link up with for next year's 2,000 Guineas and was cut to 20-1, from 25-1, by Ladbrokes following comments by his trainer, Richard Hannon, that the colt is his best prospect since Tirol, winner of the Newmarket Classic in 1990.
Making her debut in Classic betting was Autumn Rhythm, a Henry Cecil-trained daughter of Hernando. She scooted in at Yarmouth to earn quotes of 25-1 for the 1,000 Guineas and 20-1 for the Oaks from Coral.
The same firm have priced up next year's Cheltenham feature races and were active after the action at Wincanton in cutting the Paul Nicholls Shotgun Willie to 12-1 from 20-1 for the Royal & SunAlliance Chase and the same trainer's Fadalko to 16-1 from 25-1 for the Queen Mother Champion Chase.
At Aintree, Tony McCoy survived two bone-shaking falls to underline his resilience as well as skill with a 32-1 four-timer. The champion was on the mark with Bustling Rio and Cardiff Arms as well as Charter Ridge and Lively Dessert for Jonjo O'Neill, who has been confirmed as the next trainer at Jackdaws Castle, which has been purchased by J P McManus. Richard Phillips has only just started his first year at the Gloucestershire yard.
The trainer Lenny Lungo received a £1,250 fine after being found in breach of the "non-triers" rules at Aintree. The horse concerned, Native Affair, was banned for 30 days while his jockey, Willie Dowling, was suspended for seven days.
Repertory was a 33.9-1 winner of the Group Three Prix du Petit Couvert at Longchamp yesterday. The winning trainer, Malcolm Saunders, said: "I started training late in life and wins like this make it all worth it for a small stable like mine. This horse has finished third in this race for the last two years and at the time I considered it like a win because it was a Group race. This is even better."
In the Group One Prix Royal Oak the improved André Fabre-trained stayer Amilynx saw off a six-strong Anglo-Irish challenge in convincing style in the hands of Olivier Peslier.

Avondale mayor named NLC president
AVONDALE -- The mayor of Avondale has been named as the leader of the National League of Cities.
The NLC made the announcement Saturday that Mayor Marie Lopez Rogers would be the organization's president for 2013.
Rogers says she is deeply honored to be elected to the one-year position.
The vote on a new president came at the end of the NLC's annual Congress of Cities and Exposition in Boston.

Assessment of Total Risk on Non-Target Organisms in Fungicide Application for Agricultural Sustainability
University of Cukurova, Faculty of Agriculture, Department of Agricultural Machinery, Adana 01330, Turkey
Received: 16 November 2013 / Revised: 5 February 2014 / Accepted: 9 February 2014 / Published: 21 February 2014
In Turkey, in 2010, the amount of pesticide (active ingredient; a.i.) used in agriculture was about 23,000 metric tons, of which approximately 32% was fungicides. In 2012, 14 a.i. were used for fungus control in wheat cultivation areas in Adana province, Turkey. These a.i. were: azoxystrobin, carbendazim, difenoconazole, epoxiconazole, fluquinconazole, prochloraz, propiconazole, prothioconazole, pyraclostrobin, spiroxamine, tebuconazole, thiophanate-methyl, triadimenol, and trifloxystrobin. In this study, the potential risk of a.i. on non-target organisms in fungicide application of wheat cultivation was assessed by The Pesticide Occupational and Environmental Risk (POCER) indicators. In this study, the highest human health risk was for fluquinconazole (Exceedence Factor (EF) 1.798 for human health), whereas the fungicide with the highest environmental risk was propiconazole (EF 2.000 for the environment). For non-target organisms, the highest potential risk was determined for propiconazole when applied at 0.1250 kg a.i. ha-1 (EF 2.897). The lowest total risk was for azoxystrobin when applied at 0.0650 kg a.i. ha-1 (EF 0.625).Keywords:

QA Analyst Interview
I applied online. The process took 5 weeks – interviewed at Eze Software (Boston, MA) in July 2013.
Applied online, contacted by HR within a couple days to set up a phone screen. Phone screen only took about 10 minutes, pretty standard going over resume and why you are interested in finance/technology.
First round in person interview: First I had to fill out a 13 question application online, which was actually helpful because it allowed me to collect a lot of my thoughts about my experiences ahead of time. In the interview I met with two managers from Connectivity and one from QA, all want to know why you like Eze and finance/technology. More going over resume experiences. Most interviewers will give you logic problems, they want to hear you as you solve it to understand your reasoning.
Was contacted that I had been moved into the position of a QA Analyst (the Leadership Development Program has two options, the other is Connectivity Consultant). Met with two QA managers at once, very similar interview to the first round in terms of going over resume/logic questions. Then met with head of QA- no logic questions but a lot of tough behavioral questions, be prepared with a lot of examples from your school/work experience. Lastly, I met with the co-president. More resume review and logic problems but I think the main point of this interview was to see if you could hold your own with the higher-ups of the company.
Another tip, they leave a good amount of time for you to ask questions so make sure you have some ready to go.
Overall, it was a very good interview experience. The interviewers were friendly, seemed happy with the company, and HR did a great job of communicating next steps.
Interview Questions
- There were a lot of logic problems/brainteasers but not too difficult, some of the behavioral ones were tougher -- something along the lines of when did you make an error that let a team down. Answer Question

I applied through college or university. The process took a day – interviewed at Eze Software (Boston, MA) in October 2012.
For campus recruiting it was only one thirty minute interview with several logic questions. Kind of halfway between a case interview and personality interview.

Reallocation and learning over the business cycle
I show how cyclical aggregate shocks can stimulate structural reallocation activities, which in turn amplify the effect of the shock. I emphasize the informational aspects related to restructuring activities and their potential interplay with aggregate shocks. Building on work by Caplin and Leahy (1994), I develop a model in which production units are uncertain about the value of staying in the market and learn about it over time in a Bayesian fashion. In addition to their own private assessment, they can also learn from observing other units' decisions.

'Shadow Dancer' with Clive Owen is Tense IRA Thriller
Submitted by BrianTT on May 29, 2013 - 6:34amRating: 4.0/5.0 |
CHICAGO – Would you betray your cause and the rest of your family tree for the safety of your son? Such is the nightmarish question that Collette must answer in James Marsh's tense, complex "Shadow Dancer," a slow-burn thriller that may be a bit too slow at times but builds in power by the final reel. It is On Demand now and opens in New York and Los Angeles on Friday, May 31. It's worth seeking out.
Memorable 'Sister' Strikes Emotional Chords
Submitted by BrianTT on January 3, 2013 - 3:16pmRating: 4.0/5.0 |
CHICAGO – With a delicacy and melancholy reminiscent of the Dardennes brothers, Ursula Meier's "Sister," shortlisted for the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film and opening tomorrow in Chicago at the Music Box Theatre, is a heartbreakingly effective piece of work about a boy forced to be a man by his circumstance.

CHICAGO – Following an addictive TV series that spanned from 1992 to 2002, I wanted to believe "The X-Files: I Want to Believe" would more dynamically pay homage to its television success than Chris Carter's first film attempt in 1998. In take two, though, it didn't happen.

Viracor-IBT agrees to buy Cylex's assets
- Brianne Pfannenstiel
- Reporter- Kansas City Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | LinkedIn | Google+
Viracor-IBT Laboratories Inc. expects to close Friday on its agreement to buy the assets of Cylex Inc. for an undisclosed amount.
Lee's Summit-based Viracor-IBT is a specialty diagnostics laboratory in immunology, infectious disease and allergy testing. Cylex is a global life sciences company.
With its purchase of Cylex, announced Tuesday, Viracor-IBT also will acquire Cylex's core product, ImmuKnow. ImmuKnow assesses cellular immune status and can be used to help identify kidney, liver, lung and heart transplant patients with low immune response, which can lead to infection.
Viracor-IBT has offered ImmuKnow to its clients for nearly a decade, a news release said.
"We're confident this acquisition will result in continued benefits to the industry, our clients and to the patients we serve," Viracor-IBT CEO Thomas Burnell said in the release. "Throughout the transition, Viracor-IBT is committed to ensuring continued access to ImmuKnow through the current avenues of kit purchases and laboratory testing,"
Cylex is focused on developing and manufacturing in vitro diagnostic products intended to assess immune cell function and provide insight for individualized transplant patient management.
ViraCor Laboratories and IBT Laboratories merged in 2009, creating a then 200-employee lab.
Brianne covers legal affairs, health care, life sciences, animal health and biosciences.

Medical Care for Street Children in India
Roll over image to zoom in
With over 1 billion people, India is the second most populous nation after China. The huge and growing population is causing unprecedented stress on the Indian social network: high levels of poverty, illiteracy, persistent malnutrition, trafficking in human beings, and a growing HIV/AIDS problem. All of these factors have contributed to India's population of 18 million street children.
Among children with no safety net, no fixed address, and no money, infections, broken bones, and other simple, easily corrected health problems go unprevented and untreated.
You can help. This Gift That Gives More™ provides a year's worth of basic medical care for a street child in India through The Charities Advisory Trust.
Report from the Field
From Charities Action Trust:
"As a result [of this funding], visible change has been made in the lives of marginalized and street children. They are healthy and are able to pursue education towards building a sound career and dignified life."
About The Charities Advisory Trust

Perfect in every way
Lots of hotels are fancy but the Nikko staff made this fancy hotel something special. Always smiling and always going out of their way to help but never being pretentious or snooty they were great! I would definitely stay at Nikko next time I need a hotel in SF.
For late nite dining and drinking go to Ryoko and order a few rolls and glasses of shochu.
No Surprises!
Very functional. Everything works. Culture could be warmer.

Great weekend getaway
My husband and I were able to enjoy a wonderful weekend together at Hotel Nikko. The health and fitness club is great because we are both health nuts. Totally convenient and great location. Staff was very attentive and very friendly and courteous!
A city hotel that exceeded our expectations!
My best friend and I had an awesome stay at this hotel. We flew into the city very early and just thought we'd ask if we could get an early check-in and were pleasantly surprised that, not only was our room ready, they upgraded us from a deluxe king to a deluxe 2 double bed room. Such a relief to settle in and head out for breakfast. The location was perfect too, walking distance from all the shops and restaurants. Loved that there was a starbucks!! The best thing was we got an incredible rate through this site. I compared it to every deal site and really, really lucked out. I am beyond happy we didn't have to settle for a small boutique hotel with less amenities and smaller room sizes. :-)
Like my stay
I liked the location. Nice modern look Clean obviously Room service was ok
Would not recommend
Read this fine print again and again!!
This is a nice hotel but we picked in a hurry while driving around and didn't take time to read the details. You will pay extra for everything. Parking is extremely pricey. To print off one voucher cost me $6.95. To use the pool or exercise room it will cost an extra $20. I felt a little overwhelmed. The room we had was the smallest I have ever had. It consisted of 1 queen size bed with about 4 feet on boths sides. That was it!! The bathroom was ordinary. I just strongly urge you to READ and READ the details. Of course it is downtown San Francisco. I should have known better
Good for business
Very close to Moscone - that's a very convenient location. The only thing that was quite annoying - Wifi is not free and costs $15 per day.
great hotel for prime san francisco location
Well run hotel with lovely decor, good beds, great restaurant. Pool area not great because of slippery floor and difficult entrances to jacuzzi and pool. Otherwise, a great experience and location.
Weekend Getaway
The location was quite central and had easy access to the BART. The hotel room itself was very clean and nicely furnished - it was a comfortable stay! Would go there again.
