The EOS 5D Mark III features a newly developed Canon full-frame 22.3 Megapixel CMOS sensor that's designed from the ground up to create high resolution, perfectly detailed images with unprecedented speed and clarity. A full 24 x 36mm, the sensor captures 5784 x 3861 large individual 6.25 µm pixels and has a much-improved S/N ratio resulting in better images from the start. A new photodiode structure with an increased photoelectric conversion rate increases the sensor's sensitivity by approximately 2 stops over previous models, meaning higher ISOs with the lowest noise of any EOS digital camera. And a 2-line 8-channel simultaneous signal readout means speeds of up to 6.0 fps (RAW + JPEG) are possible!
The EOS 5D Mark III not only offers 14-bit signal processing for excellent image gradation, it delivers higher standard and expanded ISOs, and a score of new options to enhance shooting in varied and fast-changing lighting situations. With a standard range of ISO 100-25600, the EOS 5D Mark III represents a 2-stop increase in sensitivity over previous cameras. Thanks to the improved signal-to-noise ratio of the new sensor and powerful noise reduction, the EOS 5D Mark III can shoot at expanded sensitivities down to ISO 50 (L) and up to 51200 (H1), and even 102400 (H2)! Beyond the obvious advantages of its wide ISO range, the EOS 5D Mark III has automatic ISO settings, found on the dedicated ISO menu. Minimum and maximum ISO settings can be specified, as can a user-defined range, plus full auto and manual.
For a whole new level of performance, the EOS 5D Mark III uses a DIGIC 5+ Image Processor. Working with two 4-channel A/D converter front-end processing circuits, and delivering speeds of up to 6.0 fps (RAW + JPEG), and the DIGIC 5+ Image Processor improves data processing performance and features new algorithms that promote greater noise reduction at higher ISOs. In addition to conventional image processing functions the DIGIC 5+ Image Processor offers real-time compensation for chromatic aberration in both still and motion images. With the power of this processor, speed improvements are noticeable from the instant the camera is turned on and the stunning results speak for themselves.

item was packaged properly, delivered timely, scratch free, good value for the price,
This is my first time using the product. It is serving me well by now. But not without a struggle with the WIFI connection problem. I used an external network adaptor to get WiFi on the laptop! But I love the computer anyway. I noticed, during my struggle with the wireless connection problem, that there were others that had the same problem in the past. So is it likely that this product suffers from the problem of wireless connection...? The manufacturer needs to review this issue if WIFI connection on the ANSUS Laptop! Hope this helps in some ways.
You never know what you're going to get when you order a refurbished computer but this one worked great and was exactly as described.

Greetings Everyone!
Back in November, I was looking a t my options for building a model of USS Greenling (SSN-614) for a friend who served on her in the early 70's, and bought the OKB Grigorov 1/700 scale USS Thresher class kit.
As it turns out, I was provided some excellent plans of Permit and decided to design a 1/144 scale Greenling in AutoCad and have it 3-D printed, and that has been quite an adventure. It's a long story, but I ended up designing 2 versions of Greenling, one without any detailing, and one with a lot of detailing. When I first started dabbling with the plans in AutoCad a buddy of mine, who has access to a 3-D printer told me he could print it for me and the adventure began. Although he had the detailed parts, the model without the detailing was printed. I was bummed at first, but since even the non-detailed model was way ahead of where I thought I would be in November, I got over it and had a great time building her with the advice and support of Tom D., Tom, Scott and others. To see the full story go to my build log at:
The first model is currently completed and awaiting her final berth, which is being built by another friend, who is a master wood worker. I just wanted to borrow his table saw and perhaps have him help me, but he said that he would make it for me. I am also having plaques made for the base, but due to a family trip to Alaska by the family owned Sooner Trophies who is making them, the base won't be ready until the first of August.
So, with the first model in limbo, and the second one being slowly printed (another long story that I won't go into) I decided to build the little OKB Grigorov kit.
I first attached the two sail planes and gave her two coats of Dupli-Color Red Oxide primer on Thursday morning. Then I masked the lower half off…
…And gave her two coats of Rust-Oleum Flat Black enamel.
I also sprayed the base with the flat black…
…And then brushed the lower part of it with two coats of Tamiya Flat Brown Acrylic.
Next I brushed the base posts with two coats of Testor's Gold Enamel and used Woodland Scenics USA Gothic dry application (rub-on) decals to put the sail numbers on the model and the ship name on the base. As you can see, the numbers and letters aren't quite straight, but such is life.
I then took a sheet of decal paper to Kinko's and had them reduce the Thresher patch and print it for the base. After two coats of Pledge Floor Care Wood Floor Finish (with Future) that I sprayed with an El Cheapo air brush I got from Harbor Freight, I applied the decal and the scale on the front of the base and Thresher's motto "Vis Tacita" (Silent Strength) on the back. This was followed by more Future (too much I believe) and then a couple of coats of Testor's Dullcoat. Here is the completed model, that I just finished (it's Sunday night).
And here are a couple of pictures of her with Greenling.
It is far from perfect and wouldn't win any awards, I know, but it is the first 1/700 scale model, and the fifth model at any scale that I have ever built. Next time I will be a little more frugal with the Future; one coat before the decals and one after. It was a fun little build though, and that's what it's all about.

This screen capture shows Hopi High School's Charles Youvella scoring a touchdown against Arizona Lutheran Saturday. / KPNX-TV
PHOENIX -- A high school football player died Monday night at a Phoenix hospital, days after he suffered a blow to the head during a game.
Keams Canyon, Ariz., Hopi High School football running back Charles Youvella suffered a critical head injury Saturday night during a Division V playoff game against Arizona Lutheran Academy.
The Hopi Bruins trailed 60-6 at the time of the injury. Youvella had already scored the team's only touchdown and, on defense, sacked the Coyotes quarterback.
Midway through the fourth quarter, Youvella caught a pass and was taken down in what officials said appeared to be a typical football tackle. On the way down, the back of Youvella's head hit the ground hard.
Witnesses said Youvella got right back to his feet and lined up for two more plays before collapsing on the field. He was conscious and talking when paramedics took him away, but by the time he arrived at St. Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center in Phoenix he was in critical condition. He remained that way through Monday.
Late Monday night, the Arizona Interscholastic Association told KPNX-TV Youvella had died.
Chuck Schmidt, Associate Executive Director of the AIA, said the organization would start an account through which people can donate to help the family with medical bills. Youvella's father, Wallace, is a member of the AIA.
"He has a significant amount of family around him," Schmidt said before Youvella's passing was announced by hospital officials Monday night. "I can't believe the support up there. The family appreciates all the thoughts and prayers."
Youvella was the second-leading rusher on a Hopi team that had its best regular-season record (9-1) in school history.
His family declined interviews.
Chris Williams and Richard Obert write for KPNX-TV. Information from the Associated Press was used in this report.

Gong Ride 2012

Re: Gong Ride 2012I wouldn't be mind being called Wayne Kerr as long as I was Miranda's husband.
I think there might be too many people who will try to race it but I guess you just ride on. I don't expect people to be nice just like not all drivers are nice during peak hour.
Re: Gong Ride 2012Anyone got a decent route for the ride back? Also, for from the bridge to St Peters and visa versa?
Re: Gong Ride 2012
I have to say this is not my experience. I've ridden the event a number of times since the mid 80's and have always found it to be a very positive environment. Of course, you do get quite a bit of testosterone fuelled foolishness at the start, but they almost always run out of steam and are easily passed well before we reach the RNP. I don't treat it as a race (because it's not), but apart from the slow going in the first few kilometres, have always been able to travel at a speed that suits me. If you haven't done it before, I'd certainly recommend it. Unlike the Spring Cycle, the route flows well and is largely free of choke points. You will be chaperoned down the hill at Stanwell Tops, but that's really not such a big thing. On the positive side, the scenery is spectacular and it's nice to be able to ride on roads closed to traffic while in the RNP. The very friendly volunteers also do a fine job in directing traffic on the shared segments.
Re: Gong Ride 2012I wasn't going to initially, but I've signed up for it again this year. I'm also planning on riding the return route.
2011 Giant Defy 1
Re: Gong Ride 2012quick question, i am planning on doing the there and back ride (yikes!). what is the best route to come on the way back? basically follow the ride route backwards?
Re: Gong Ride 2012
You won't be allowed into the RNP from the southern end as the road is closed to through traffic. At the top of Bald Hill you will need to turn left and continue up the hill to join the old highway at Helensburg. This rejoins the normal route at Waterfall. Good luck.
Re: Gong Ride 2012great! thank you very much it will be my longest ride by a looonnnggg way, but i am hoping i will be able to handle it!
Re: Gong Ride 2012I haven't ridden all the way back, but have ridden back as far as Stanwell Park when we used to live there. It is fairly tough. The strong nor'easter that often comes up and makes the ride down nice and fast, creates quite a headwind for the return leg. The pull from Austinmer to Scarborough is a solid climb, and there's a steep, but thankfully short section at Coalcliff. The climb up through Stanwell Tops to Helensburg from Stanwell Park is also steep, and goes on for about 4km . After that, it should get easier
Re: Gong Ride 2012Anyone in Sydney South is training for the ride in RNP or near? I am eager to join a group of advanced beginners or early intermediates. Riding in a group and climbing would be my main priorities.
Re: Gong Ride 2012i think im doing it this year, and might do our early usual start at 6am and avoid the pro peleton. the witches hats are out then and its a fast and quiet road that awaits you.
Re: Gong Ride 2012I have signed up this year for my first attempt. I have heard stories about some "overly enthusiastic" characters along the way so thats a concern but I am looking forward to it. Will be able to ride the 90 with no problems but I think the 180 is well beyond me at this point!
Re: Gong Ride 2012I've signed up. I'm thinking of catching a train to the start, and doing a return leg that somehow ends up going m7 cway to get me home. Weather etc permitting.
I'm happy to have company if anyone wants to attempt the same. Also appreciate any route suggestions for gong -> m7. I've had one suggestion of picton rd then freeway. - Chris
Re: Gong Ride 2012How far is your possible route, coops?
Re: Gong Ride 2012

LMAO you've done the ride with leximack and you've turned into an animal... doing the Gong ride to warm up, and then getting into the century to cool down eh?
Re: Gong Ride 2012It somehow doesn't seem right to pay all this money and only do a ride the same length as an m7 FPR
It's only about 10% longer than doing the direct gong return leg you mentioned + has the advantage of getting me home again. If I do it I'll probably keep it pretty cruisy on the way back, stopping a couple of times etc.
Re: Gong Ride 2012
Here you go Mr coops http://app.strava.com/rides/2969437
Re: Gong Ride 2012Thanks Spiz!
Re: Gong Ride 2012Ahh, the full gong loop. That was an awesome ride. We need to do that one again
Re: Gong Ride 2012
Looks good. 2011 Giant Defy 1
Re: Gong Ride 2012That's a big day out. I have decided to ride the fixie this year so my planned ride to Nowra will probably end up stopping in Kiama.
Re: Gong Ride 2012Just signed up, looking forward to it!
Re: Gong Ride 2012Apparently I am acceptable as part of the mobile support crew.
Better make sure my own bike is in good nick- broke 2 spokes today . . . . . . .
Re: Gong Ride 2012pulled out of the fitz 205 as a recent virus has left me lacking condition. Gonna do this instead for the first time. Should be right by then. Will do the return. Catching a ride home doesn't appeal.
Re: Gong Ride 2012
Cool. Me too. I've been doing it for years. Keep an eye out for me and also Wayfarer (who is also a Dave) on the mobile support crew. I'm sure we'll pass each other multiple times on the way down. I usually catch the bus on the way back with the bike in the truck. I tried riding back once, but by the time I got down there and turned around to head back, the wind was horrid. Catching the bus is great after a 7 hour ride down is great (yes, it can take that long when you're stopping all the time).

E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Co.: The Conoco Split-off (A), Spanish Version
Stuart C. Gilson, Perry L. Fagan
Revision Date:Jul 25, 2005Publication Date:Dec 12, 2001Discipline:FinanceSource:Harvard Business School |
Product number:210S21-HCB-SPA Length:23p |
Spanish Hardcopy Black & White
Also Available in:
Spanish Hardcopy Black & White | $ 6.93
After taking 30% of its Conoco oil and gas subsidiary public in the largest domestic initial public offering (IPO) in U.S. history, management of E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Co. (DuPont) is considering divesting its remaining interest in Conoco. This goal is to be accomplished through a relatively uncommon transaction called a corporate "split-off," under which DuPont's shareholders will be given the option to exchange their shares in DuPont for shares in Conoco (but, in contrast to a more conventional "spin-off," they are not obligated to exchange their shares). Management's objective in restructuring is to move DuPont away from its traditional energy and chemical business toward the life sciences (agriculture, biotechnology, and pharmaceuticals).
learning objective:
To discuss the economics of IPOs and the rationales for corporate restructuring. To assess the potential value enhancement for DuPont's shareholders of divesting of the company's slow-growth oil and chemical business. Also, contrast alternative techniques for breaking up a conglomerate, including spin-offs, asset sales, carve-outs, tracking stocks, and split-offs. To debate the merits of the company's proposed risky strategic shift into a new "hot" industry whose prospects are highly uncertain.
subjects covered:
Diversification; IPO; Recapitalization; Reorganization; Stockholders; Stocks; Valuation
- Geographic: United States
- Industry: Agribusiness
- Industry: Biotechnology
- Industry: Chemicals
- Industry: Petroleum extraction

Great little media player. Liked it so much I got one for my parents. Hook it up to the tv, plug in a usb hard drive (it has 2 usb ports so you can have a big hard drive and a more portable thumb drive). A little slow to index a really big hard drive, but not unexpected considering it's a USB connection. Plays all my avi and mkv files flawlessly. Upscales nicely. Comes with the analog connections but no HD cable. No instructions came with it but it has a very simple interface so no big deal. NO ON BUTTON so if you tend to lose your remotes, be sure to program it into a universal remote as backup. This version doesn't stream but we are still waiting for the fiber lines in our neighborhood (now 6 months behind schedule) so streaming isn't an option for me anyway at our current speeds. I paid closer to $60 for mine almost a year ago and would seriously consider picking up another one for the 2nd tv except I'm holding out to upgrade to the "live" streaming verison as soon as they light the fiber.

text: I started my Whittier Narrows fly fishing experience by exiting the 605 freeway north at peck road. It was sunny and I was ready to catch some fish. Not knowing what I was going to be catching I grabbed my 4-5 weight fly rod and w/floating line and a 3 pound leader. I decided to tie on a size 16 parachute adams w/ a dropper size 18 prince nymph (I used about 6-8 inches for the dropper leader). Before I knew it I pulled out a couple of small Green Sun Fish and a couple of juvenal Blue Gills. After amusing myself with these small fish for about an hour, I started to realize that I was seeing bigger fish out a few more feet, so I tied on a size 12 bead head olive woolly bugger and got the surprise of my life. I must have pulled out about 20 Tilapia in the next hour all on the same fly. After having my fair share of Tilapia and the weather started heating up, I decided to pack up my stuff and headed home. You can fly fish almost anywhere in Southern California, so grab you gear and get to you local lake, stream, river, or whatever and start catching some fish.

I really like the blocky nature of these social media icons, it's an interesting twist. The textures used add another layer of intrigue to these icon designs.
Posted in Interface → OtherA stunning shot of an upcoming iPhone app. I really like the use of textures here and the way the orange contrasts with the dark background colours. The use of icons is another highlight of this design.
Posted in Interface → iPhone AppA small shot of an upcoming interface for an iPhone app. I love the attention given to the textures here, each stitch looks great. The leather tab bar works really well with the overall theme of the app.
Posted in Interface → iPhone AppAnother gorgeous example of letterpress business cards. I love the silver ink chosen for this design and the bold typography. The thickness of the paper is amazing, it makes a strong statement.
Posted in Branding → Business CardsA fascinating site for a folk musician that features a wealth of intriguing imagery. I love the illustrations and quirky nature of the site. The black sidebar that shows tour dates and other info works well to highlight current information.
Posted in Web Design → MusicThis particular site makes an immediate impact with its strong graphic approach. The paint splashes add interest and colour to what could otherwise be a functional and lifeless site. The consistent graphic style works well, although some of the paint splashes are a little distracting.
Posted in Web Design → DesignA stylish and sleek design for a localised social network. This social network is designed around one particular art institute and has specific features to keep the students in touch with each other. I really like the typefaces used and the approach to design.
Posted in Interface → iPhone AppA brilliant branding project for Brooklyn Fare. I love the minimal design, the simple text on a plain colour works really well in this instance. I like the impact of the slogans and the impact of the chosen orange, it's very different from most other coffee cup designs.
Posted in Branding → ProductI really like the symbolism of this logo, the bottlecap idea works really well. The typeface of the 'Bc' could be more refined but otherwise I find the design memorable and effective. The greyscale approach helps to make the logo versatile.
Posted in Branding → LogoA beautifully designed tribute site for the mother of a designer. The full screen video makes an incredible impact, as does the gentle piano piece. The typeface used and text placement and colour works really well as an overlay to the video.
Posted in Web Design → MiscA great example of an interesting and thought through log in box. I like the textured nature of it and the simple shapes and lines. The colour also works well, it's very different to many other example of this kind of work.
Posted in Interface → Site NavigationGreat business cards that make perfect use of a simple concept. I really like the colours and shapes used in the design on the front of the card. The unique shape of the card itself adds another dimension of interest.
Posted in Branding → Business CardsA simple but brilliant logo that immediately catches your eye. I really like the bright colours used here and the textured appearance of the tomato. The logo itself looks like it's a childish drawing, something that can be very hard to capture.
Posted in Branding → LogoAn immediately striking site for a designer. The use of social networking (and other) icons is excellent and allows you to connect with the designer in many different ways. I love that you can filter the gallery, it's a great touch!
Posted in Web Design → DesignA absolutely stunning concept for a sports band that integrates with the Nike+ system. I love the colour and variety in the other potential designs, although the orange and black one does it for me! The incorporation of the USB memory is an ingenious idea that purely enhances the user experience.
Posted in Interface → OtherAn absolutely fascinating approach to user interface design. This is a contact page like no other... The hand-drawn style is used effectively, and while I not totally on board with the changing of the mouse and attempts to get you to view the site fullscreen, it's certainly a different approach to a contact page!
Posted in Interface → Web AppAnother iPhone App that\'s attempting to recreate a classic lo-fi camera, and another beautiful interface! I love the detail put into the camera lens itself, you almost feel like you could see your reflection. More effort could have been put into the feel of the buttons, but overall it\'s still a satisfying App to use.
Posted in Interface → iPhone App

Lesser-known part of Obamacare will cause more health care M&A
Blog Entry:
March 13, 2013 4:30 AM | Author: JOHN C. RIDDLE
John C. Riddle is a managing director and principal with Cleveland investment bank,
Brown Gibbons Lang & Co
. Mr. Riddle heads the firm's Healthcare & Life Sciences practice and has more than 20 years of investment banking and capital markets experience.
Passed in 2010 and headed toward full implementation by 2014, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), aka Obamacare, has several provisions that have received little attention but will have significant impact on the health care industry, as well as employers, their workers and seniors.
One major provision that doesn't get a lot of press is Section 3022, which encourages the creation of Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs). The idea is the creation of a shared savings program for Medicare fee-for-service beneficiaries, which will move responsibility for cost containment and quality outcomes closer to the provider.
ACOs will risk-share with traditional insurance companies or completely shoulder the risk for delivery of care. In turn, these ACOs will split with Medicare any savings they can produce in the delivery of care. While ACOs have yet to be fully defined, it is likely that these ACOs will be run by a joint venture involving traditional hospitals and health systems, as well as physician groups and ancillary providers.
In order to respond to the federal ACO movement, health systems such as Cleveland Clinic, University Health and Summa Health will increase acquisition activity of the remaining Northeast Ohio independent hospitals, physician practices and alternate site providers. This will allow them to control more of the delivery system in the region, which in turn will allow them to control the cost of care for individual patients while maintaining or improving quality of care. In that way, these large health systems will be able to participate in the shared savings program with Medicare.
Conversely, independent hospitals such as Parma Community and small systems — among them, EMH Regional Health and Lake Hospital System — will have to seek shelter from a larger system in order to remain competitive. This is because they are at a distinct disadvantage relative to the bigger systems in many ways: (a) Medicare is likely to steer beneficiaries to the most efficient ACOs; (b) efficiency is possible only through the scale and sophistication that a Cleveland Clinic and its peers have; and (c) understanding this trend, lenders and investors increasingly are constraining capital access for smaller hospitals in favor of the larger systems.
We think longer term, the large health systems such as Cleveland Clinic, which today operates primarily within this region, will be compelled to expand beyond their current geography. This could happen through a merger with another system on the other side of the state, or a combination with a system in Pennsylvania, Michigan or Kentucky.
Supporting our prediction, Dr. Toby Cosgrove, Cleveland Clinic's CEO, has stated he believes the hospital market will consolidate into 50 large multistate systems over the next decade or two. Dr. Cosgrove also predicts a continuation of the trend away from the independent physician practice toward fully employed physicians. This trend already is underway, as more than 60% of all physicians nationally are employed.
The impact of PPACA will be far-reaching for all constituents. With the rise of ACOs, the health care landscape in Northeast Ohio will consolidate even further than it has. Provider organizations of tomorrow will look very different than they are today, with a much larger fully employed physician base, a fully integrated delivery system united under fewer corporate banners, and patient engagement by these systems that doesn't exist today.

Chapter 7
Gideon's army is reduced to 300—They frighten the Midianite armies with trumpets and lights—The Midianites fight among themselves, flee, and are defeated by Israel.
1 Then Jerubbaal, who is Gideon, and all the people that were with him, rose up early, and pitched beside the well of Harod: so that the host of the Midianites were on the north side of them, by the hill of Moreh, in the valley.
2 And the Lord said unto Gideon, The people that are with thee are too many for me to give the Midianites into their hands, lest Israel vaunt themselves against me, saying, Mine own hand hath saved me.
3 Now therefore go to, proclaim in the ears of the people, saying, Whosoever is
4 And the Lord said unto Gideon, The people are yet too
5 So he brought down the people unto the water: and the Lord said unto Gideon, Every one that lappeth of the water with his tongue, as a dog lappeth, him shalt thou set by himself; likewise every one that boweth down upon his knees to drink.
6 And the number of them that lapped, putting their hand to their mouth, were three hundred men: but all the rest of the people bowed down upon their knees to drink water.
7 And the Lord said unto Gideon, By the three hundred men that lapped will I save you, and deliver the Midianites into thine hand: and let all the other people go every man unto his place.
8 So the people took
9 ¶And it came to pass the same night, that the Lord said unto him, Arise, get thee down unto the host; for I have delivered it into thine hand.
10 But if thou fear to go down, go thou with Phurah thy servant down to the host:
11 And thou shalt hear what they say; and afterward shall thine hands be strengthened to go down unto the host. Then went he down with Phurah his servant unto the outside of the armed men that were in the host.
12 And the Midianites and the Amalekites and all the children of the east lay along in the valley like grasshoppers for multitude; and their camels were without number, as the sand by the sea side for multitude.
13 And when Gideon was come, behold, there was a man that told a dream unto his fellow, and said, Behold, I dreamed a
14 And his fellow answered and said, This is nothing else save the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel: for into his hand hath God delivered Midian, and all the host.
15 ¶And it was so, when Gideon heard the telling of the dream, and the interpretation thereof, that he worshipped, and returned into the host of Israel, and said, Arise; for the Lord hath delivered into your hand the host of Midian.
16 And he divided the three hundred men into three companies, and he put a trumpet in every man's hand, with empty pitchers, and lamps within the pitchers.
17 And he said unto them, Look on me, and do likewise: and, behold, when I come to the outside of the camp, it shall be that, as I do, so shall ye do.
18 When I blow with a trumpet, I and all that are with me, then blow ye the trumpets also on every side of all the camp, and say, The sword of the Lord, and of Gideon.
19 ¶So Gideon, and the hundred men that were with him, came unto the outside of the camp in the beginning of the middle watch; and they had but newly set the watch: and they blew the trumpets, and brake the pitchers that were in their hands.
20 And the three companies blew the trumpets, and brake the pitchers, and held the lamps in their left hands, and the trumpets in their right hands to blow withal: and they cried, The sword of the Lord, and of Gideon.
21 And they stood every man in his place round about the camp: and all the host ran, and cried, and fled.
22 And the three hundred blew the trumpets, and the Lord set every man's sword against his
23 And the men of Israel gathered themselves together out of Naphtali, and out of Asher, and out of all Manasseh, and pursued after the
24 ¶And Gideon sent messengers throughout all mount Ephraim, saying, Come down against the Midianites, and take before them the waters unto Beth-barah and Jordan. Then all the men of Ephraim gathered themselves together, and took the waters unto Beth-barah and Jordan.
25 And they took two princes of the Midianites, Oreb and Zeeb; and they slew

Martin (Marty) Smith's insight:
Found this a fascinating read. We thought about hiring a "scrapper" at Curagami. We weren't sure 1. who was reputable (scraping can show up as an attack if you aren't careful) and 2. how to engage those who we could trust to help. This post answers both those questions though some additional research on vendors is probably called for as the post has a salesy point of view.

Article Link: http://www.anecdote.com/2015/02/vital-habit-of-noticing-stories/ This Monday I was working with a client. Their company is littered with stories. Yet the CEO was lamenting, "What stories do we have to tell??!! I can't think of a single one!" The problem was quickly fixed, and it is a common one my clients tell me about. So imagine my delight when this morning I receive the latest newsletter from my biz story colleague Shawn Callahan, CEO of Anecdote. His latest blog post is all about how to notice stories. He's got some great tips in this quick article. Even better, scroll down to gain additional insights addressing other issues in business storytelling. But wait wait! Don't go yet! Shawn also announced that his latest free e-book is now available for download: Character Trumps Credentials: 171 questions that help leaders tell great stories that influence, inspire and engage. In coaching and workshops I always spend time on "the art of the question". Shawn has developed a great resource. Some of the questions use classic story prompts. Others might take an additional question or two to get to the story. Regardless, go grab this now and start using it.

When getting a good and credible company to offer you any kind of service or product, it is very important for you to always ensure that you follow a good procedure. This should be a good procedure that allows you to effectively use your financial resources to get a good company. The fact of the matter is that you don't want to spend your cash on a service that is not well offered. If you do this, then you will have a good chance of getting the real value for your cash. Therefore, this article explains a couple of key mistakes that you should always avoid when it comes to getting a company to offer you quality skip bin services in Sydney.
The first mistake that you should avoid is that of failing to research. The fact of the matter is that there are many companies in the city that offer these services. When you visit the internet and do a local search, you will likely find many companies that claim to be the best. What you need to know is that all companies will claim that they are the best in their niche. You should therefore do the best that you can to ensure that you do a lot of research on the companies that are available. You should use both secondary and primary data collection methods. In the primary data, you should ask people who are said to be the testimonials. For secondary data, you should read reviews and ratings in the internet.
The next mistake that you should do is to get a company that is not from the city. As a resident of Sydney, you need to note that using a company from the city will be of an advantage to you. For instance, when you use a local company, you will save on the costs as the company will charge you for the transport to that place. This will be a bit expensive for you. What are you waiting for – visit skip bins Sydney now at their website www.transskipbinssydney.com.au
It is also a mistake not to have a set of specifications that you want in the company. It is very important for you to have a good checklist that will be used to determine the company to choose. You should go for a company that has a good reputation, one that is experienced and one that has friendly and able members of staff. Therefore, it is important to have a checklist that will be used for this reason.
