Good news, we couldn't another round like last friday storms like Friday's need better warnings, calling it a serve thunderstorm was a understatement. A better warning would allow people like me get out of the hot zone. Were I live got hit pretty good, if I knew it was going to be as bad as it was, I would have tried to leave the area.
What a Storm we had on Friday. We do get Derecho's about once every four years but a storm of this severity only comes around every 30 years or so. But I do agree with the posters that there should be another type of weather warning when there's a chance that we could encounter a storm of this magnitude. At this point I think we could call it a Derecho Warning and most people would understand what this warning entailed. Stay safe!!!!

Mandarin Oriental Will Say 'Hola' To Barcelona Later This Year
Looks like we might have to return to Barcelona again pretty soon. We're already eagerly anticipating the opening of the W Barcelona and now we've got word that Mandarin Oriental will open their Barcelona outpost later this year. From the press release:
Mandarin Oriental, Barcelona is ideally located on Paseo de Gracia, Barcelona�s most prestigious address, at the very center of the city�s commercial and entertainment district. The property provides easy access to the city�s finest shopping, dining and cultural venues and is a short walk from many major tourist attractions. From the hotel, guests will be able to stroll amongst the city�s celebrated promenades and architecture and enjoy the attractions of the famous Las Ramblas and the Gothic Quarter. Barcelona�s many museums, churches and parks are all close at hand and two of the most celebrated buildings by the city�s famous architect, Gaudi, are just a stone�s throw from the hotel.
The hotel will feature only 98 guest rooms, all designed by Spanish designer Patricia Urquiola. A 10,763 square foot Spa at Mandarin Oriental will be onsite and of course, several restaurant and bars are expected, one of which will be al fresco in the hotel's 7,104 square foot outdoor garden. Plus, a rooftop pool. We just hope it's bigger than the Omm Hotel's rooftop pool.
No word on the price point yet but expect it to be muy caro.

The price of praziquantel
Market segmentation and price reductions
This study of global prices for praziquantel in the 1980s and 1990s identified two striking features: a) a sharp segmentation of the international market, based on price; and b) a significant decline in prices in the 15 years since the product's introduction on the international market.
Price segmentation can be observed across four dimensions: the prices of praziquantel in the veterinary and human markets; the prices of the human formulations in developed and developing country markets; the prices provided to bulk purchasers versus smaller buyers; and the prices in the public and private sectors in developing countries. The price structure of praziquantel from highest to lowest prices paid, in general, is as follows:
• private market in developed countries,
• veterinary market in developed countries,
• insurance market in developed countries,
• private market in developing countries,
• generics market, and
• tender market for governments and institutions.
Producers seek to set the price in each market segment according to the price level that buyers in the segment are expected to bear. For example, because the veterinary market for praziquantel is confined primarily to the developed world (except for the veterinary market in China), the prices of veterinary formulations tend to be higher than the prices in the insurance market for the human formulations. Similarly, the tender market prices for developing countries tend to be much lower than the prices charged in the private market, either in the developed or developing world.
The second feature of praziquantel prices is their significant decline, globally, over time - although not necessarily at the same rate in each market segment. As mentioned in Chapter 5, the price of praziquantel has fallen continuously in most market segments since the product's introduction in 1978-except for branded products in the developed country market segment (illustrated by the German market). The process of declining prices has been accentuated in the 1990s by the expiry of the Bayer-E. Merck patent between 1989 and 1994 (see Chapter 2), and by the increase in the number of generic manufacturers and greater price competition.
Both the price segmentation of the market and the differential price declines in these segments reflect a strategic effort on the producers' part to maximize overall profits from the different market segments. Producers seek to protect higher prices in more profitable market segments, but are still willing to participate in more competitive market segments, especially if they have the potential for large volume sales.
These two features of the praziquantel market (market segmentation and price declines) are discussed below in more detail.
Producer and supplier prices
This research project made considerable effort to obtain information on praziquantel prices. Questionnaires were mailed to producers, suppliers, and purchasers of praziquantel that we could identify, and the mailings followed up through telephone calls and in-person interviews when feasible. Library searches were undertaken for published material on the prices of praziquantel. Various databases were searched for praziquantel price-related information.
In general, we experienced great difficulty in obtaining accurate and reliable price data on praziquantel, due to three main factors: (1) the lack of public databases related to pharmaceutical products and prices; (2) the lack of good private databases on pharmaceutical products and prices in developing country markets; and (3) the reluctance of producers, suppliers, and purchasers to disclose price-related information, which was accentuated by the increasingly competitive nature of the praziquantel market. Still, our research yielded some information on changes in the prices for praziquantel between 1981 and 1994 in several market segments, and differences in the prices across market segments. Figure 7.1 provides a summary of these price changes for the major producers and suppliers of praziquantel.
Figure 7.1 Praziquantel Price Changes (1980-95)
Prices are for a single 600 mg tablet of praziquantel, converted into dollars. Developed country prices are German retail prices for Biltricide. Developing country prices are for Biltricide and Distocide in Korea and for Biltricide in Egypt. Concessionary prices (international agency) are purchase prices for WHO and UNICEF. Concessionary prices (NGO) are sales prices for a single German NGO.
Figure 7.1 shows that prices for praziquantel have dropped significantly in most market segments since the drug's introduction. When the product was introduced by Bayer in 1978, it was priced at approximately US$ 6.50 a tablet in Germany in the private retail market (Scrip, 1981). Also in 1981, Bayer was selling the drug to WHO at a concessionary price of about US$ 0.90 a tablet (Scrip, 1981). Since then, the price has fallen substantially in the private market in most developing countries. Similarly, the concessionary price has dropped as well.
The drop in prices in the private market in developing countries has also been substantial. In the Republic of Korea, when Shin Poong entered the praziquantel market in 1983, Bayer was selling the drug at US$ 4.83 a tablet (see Chapter 3). By 1994, in an attempt to compete with Shin Poong, Bayer had dropped its price in the Republic of Korea to US$ 3.20 per tablet-a price lower than Shin Poong's in the Korean market (Chapter 3). Shin Poong's entry into the market, thus, had a dramatic impact on the price of praziquantel in the Republic of Korea. Similarly, in Egypt, the entry of EIPICO forced Bayer to drop its price from L.E. 4 per tablet in 1983 to L.E. 2.24 per tablet in 1994, reflecting an almost 50% drop in local currency-and a nearly seven-fold price reduction in dollars (from US$ 4.44 in 1983 to US$ 0.66 in 1994) due to the devaluation of the Egyptian pound. Bayer was also beaten out of the public market by EIPICO, which was able to win the MOH tender at a price of 88 piasters (US$ 0.26), in 1992 and 1993 (see Chapter 4).
In the market for bulk sales to international agencies, the price at which Bayer was willing to sell praziquantel to WHO in 1994 was US$ 0.42-a greater than 50% drop from its original concessional price. But Bayer is in a poor position to compete in the tender market because of its high production costs (described in the next section), and because other producers have been able to offer even lower prices to international agencies. For example, Shin Poong sold praziquantel to WHO and to UNICEF in 1994 at a price of US$ 0.21-0.22, while producers like Medochemie and IDA were offering prices of US$ 0.14 and lower to WHO.
Figure 7.1 also demonstrates the differential pricing used by producers in the different human market segments. As early as 1981, Bayer sold praziquantel to international agencies at 1/7th its private market price (Scrip, 1981). Similarly, in 1994, Shin Poong was pricing the product at US$ 3.53 per tablet (nominal price) in the Korean private market, and was selling to international agencies at about 6% of that price (Chapter 3). A similar market segmentation is reflected in the prices of praziquantel in developed and developing countries. While Bayer currently sells praziquantel in the USA for between US$ 10-19.50 a tablet in retail pharmacies (depending on the volume of purchase), its price in the Republic of Korea is US$ 3.20 per tablet (nominal price) (Chapter 3).
The purchase volume, which forms the basis for bulk discounts offered by producers, determines to a significant extent the differences in the prices at which praziquantel is sold in developing country markets. For example, in 1994, UNICEF, because of its large volume purchases, obtained prices (US$ 0.22/tablet) significantly below those offered to Ministries of Health in developing countries, even below the tender price in Egypt where EIPICO won a bid to supply the Ministry at a price of US$ 0.26 per tablet.
An added consideration, which probably explains the difference in price in the developed and developing country markets, is the purchasing power of the country, and the ability of an individual market segment to sustain a particular price.
The strategy of producers to provide differential pricing across countries raises important issues related to the possibility of trans-shipment of products from lower priced to higher priced countries. Although we were not able to obtain a completely satisfactory explanation for the absence (or at least the relatively low level) of such secondary markets, it seems that factors related to transport costs, and possibly some quality considerations, may have a role.
Along with a reduction in producer prices, there exists a declining trend in prices from international agencies and private suppliers to developing countries. The declines in the sales prices from bulk suppliers can be explained by the drop in manufacturers prices, and the increasing competition among private distributors and suppliers.
For example, WHO was initially selling praziquantel to developing countries at a price close to US$ 1 per tablet in 1981 (Scrip, 1981). This price dropped to about US$ 0.51 in 1992 (MSH, 1993). The current price is probably closer to US$ 0.20-0.25. Similarly, the UNICEF sale price has dropped from US$ 0.65 in 1985 to US$ 0.29 in 1992 and US$ 0.27 in 1993.
Among private suppliers, a similar fall in the sales price of praziquantel is observed over time. This price decline is shown in time-series data obtained from Action Medeor, and in data collected by Management Sciences for Health for other private suppliers. These data are presented in Tables 7.1 and 7.2 below.

In addition to demonstrating the decline in the price of praziquantel over time, Table 7.1 illustrates the impact of two significant events in the market history of praziquantel: the entry of Shin Poong in the international market (in 1985); and the expiry of the Bayer/E. Merck patent in many countries, resulting in a dramatic increase in the number of generic producers (in 1992-1993). These two events were accompanied by sharp cuts in the price of praziquantel by the existing manufacturers, in response to the increased competition, and by a corresponding decrease in the sales price of suppliers. Thus, in February 1985 (roughly corresponding with the entry of Shin Poong in the praziquantel market), Medeor's sales price dropped sharply by 36% in the course of a month, and in 1986 fell again by a further 54%. Following this period of rapid price cuts, prices tended to stabilize for the next 6 years. In 1992 and 1993 (corresponding with the expiry of the Bayer/E. Merck patent in many countries), Medeor's praziquantel prices once again fell sharply, by 13% and 66%, respectively.

Table 7.2 shows that IDA, the largest of the private suppliers, was selling praziquantel at US$ 0.62 in 1989, and dropped its price to US$ 0.15 by 1995 (MSH, 1995). Similar drops in the sales prices are also observed for all the other suppliers of praziquantel. These data show that supplier prices dropped sharply after 1992 (similar to the pattern of Table 7.1), suggesting a causal link between the fall in the price of praziquantel and the expiry of the Bayer/E. Merck patent. In 1995, the price quoted by these private agencies for the supply of praziquantel to developing countries and relief agencies ranged from a low of US$ 0.15 per tablet (from IDA) to a high of US$ 0.26 per tablet (from ORBI), just below UNICEF's price of US$ 0.28 per tablet. However, even with these suppliers, the quoted price can reportedly be negotiated downwards, depending on the size of the order, the company from which the drug is procured, and the size of the package (e.g. 8-tablet, 100-tablet, 1000-tablet packs) that is being purchased (MSH, 1994).
Prices in individual countries
A notable feature of the price of praziquantel across countries is the markedly higher prices charged by producers for praziquantel in the developed world as shown in Figure 7.1. While the prices in the developed nations do vary by country and market segment, they tend to be much higher than the prices in developing countries. As explained above, this phenomenon is explained by the market segmentation strategy of producers.
Thus, in 1993, the price in the private market for the Bayer product was US$ 9.02 per tablet in Japan, US$ 5.95 per tablet in Taiwan, US$ 4.61 in Austria, US$ 3.97 per tablet in France, and US$ 2.17 in Australia. These are to be contrasted with the price for the same product in the private markets in the developing world, where they ranged from US$ 0.57 in Egypt to US$ 1.82 in Jordan, and US$ 2.11 in francophone Africa.
In developing countries, the public sector's procurement price of praziquantel tends to be 25-50% below the retail price in the private market, depending on the effectiveness of the tender process in the public sector, and on whether the brand of praziquantel sold in the private sector is produced by a domestic or foreign source. For example, in Egypt, the procurement price in the public sector in 1994 was about US$ 0.26, while the retail price in the private market varied from US$ 0.51 (EIPICO) to US$ 0.57 (Bayer). Public sector stocks diverted to the black market tend to be sold at a price between the public sector procurement price and the private sector retail prices. It is difficult, however, to estimate the size of the black market.

So, its already gone, but what a beautiful front page to be included in. Thanks Hedy, I love this list.
Saturday, July 7, 2007
For Mother's day I gave Mom this great handmade prayer flag by Flederhaus of Etsy. My mom collects hands and the flags spell out peace in sign language. I just knew she would love them, and she did. I should have taken a picture when she hung them in the trees on our camping trip, but missed the chance. Instead here is a pic of them hanging in her sewing room.
Inaugural Airstream Camping Trip
So, I'm finally getting around to blogging about the airstream. My folks found this beauty a couple of months ago. It is in great shape for its age. We had our first outing in May for Mother's Day/ Mom's 60th birthday. We camped at Mckinney Falls State Park in Austin, which was gorgeous. The weather was perfect and we had lots of great guests and meals.
On the same day that Dad called to tell me about purchasing the airstream I read a story about a local artist named Paige Davidson in Indulge magazine. I am really interested in her paintings and love her style. The airstream series is especially intriguing to me. Here is one of my favorites.

Bess Border Collie - Leeds
This photo above shows Bess, a border collie in Briggate, Leeds. Bess and her owner were busking in Leeds city centre.
This chap is a one man band, very popular with smaller children and their mums. Bess is a patient lovely dog who sometimes joins in. Border collies are the dog most likely to be used by farmers here in Yorkshire when working with sheep, so this breed is sometimes called sheep dogs.
6 comments:
I love Bess!!! She is adorable, Paul.
Thanks for visiting Norwich Daily Photo and leaving your comment. Come back tomorrow for more of the Keukenhof series!

Let's hope people don't over-react and make assumptions about a minor injury turning into a season-ending disaster.
Let's change your "Champion Forever" to "Hasekian Voice of Reason" por favor. Yes? I think so.
I'm actually excited to see how THE MAC work it tomorrow and Monday. He really did have a fine game in St. Louis. It's time for the rest of the boys to step it up with that defense minded, allowing minimal shots by the opposition, puck possession play that I have grown accustomed to.
I aim to be awesome. And me also. I haven't seen Calgary or Philly this year so I don't know what to expect from them for MacD, so we'll see what he has to face off with. I just want to see him do well, probably because it's easy to sympathize with someone "trying to make it into the big time" like he is. =D
oh, and HR40? I kind of dig you too. Don't let it go to your head though!

No, it's definitely excitement.

When I read the report, my first thought was, of course, "Well, at least it ain't his groin."
If it were closer to the playoffs, I might suspect that it is, rather than his wrist. But I think this is a legitimate report.
Hurry back, Dom! I bet we see him back vs the Stars on Valentine's Day.

That very well could be. I don't think it's a big deal, but without him, forget going far in the playoffs.

Injury update
The news on Dominik Hasek 's sore right wrist was mostly good Sunday. Hasek, who didn't dress against Calgary and won't tonight against the Flyers, either, has been taking medication to reduce the inflammation in his wrist that was injured Wednesday against Phoenix. Hasek didn't make the trip to Philadelphia but is expected to join the team for the four-day trip to Dallas and Phoenix.
"It feels better today than it did (Saturday), the doctors told me, so we're optimistic he's headed in the right direction," Holland said. "I'd like to think he'll have his equipment on sometime this week.
yeah, like... Wednesday in Dallas, I hope?

Number two. To that I would add, not only does it break the monotony of our days, but it gives us a chance to celebrate life! Everyday is a gift and holidays may celebrate different things in life, but it's also an opportunity to celebrate love and to celebrate life!
And finally, number three. I've also got a hidden (or not so hidden) agenda: the more diverse our family activities, the richer the opportunities for language development in our two home languages: English and Spanish! Let me explain...
Here the children got to eat peanut butter M&M's that their Papa brought home from Washington D.C. last month. A little bit of American culture, a little sweetness in the mouth, but for the younger ones, it's the perfect opportunity to teach and practice colors!
As you can see, I don't just limit myself to American holidays. The French ones are just as important to me because it is home for our family. It's the way I personally try to adapt to my new culture and world. By embracing the holidays of the culture where we live, I hope to teach my children to embrace and celebrate differences in different peoples. Today it's just in our little corner of the world, but in so doing I hope to open their tomorrows to an international world.
In our home, celebrating holidays is about expanding our creative energy and learning to adapt with materials at hand. I had made mini galettes des rois for my children, but realized too late that I didn't have any crowns. I found some old sheet music, pulled out a container of colorful beads and my trusty glue gun and the children went to town making their own crowns! For me, it's also a way to keep them away from the pull of television and video games and get them interacting with each other!
Baking is a family favorite because not only do we participate in a constructive activity together, but when all is said and done there is a sweet treat waiting to be enjoyed! It's also a way to cultivate resourcefulness in my children. Rather than relying on store-bought treats that are filled with sweeteners and preservatives, we strive to make a maximum of homemade snacks. And as we bake, we practice food vocabulary, measurements and following instructions.
I'm grateful to have a job that allows me to be at home and be at the crossroads for my children. Afterschool snack time (the "goûter") is the perfect time for telling me about their days - in English or Spanish, depending on the time of the month!
And finally, love notes encourage them to read and build their self-esteem!
And this is why I love taking advantage of every holiday possible to do something special for my family!

Significance and Use
4.1 Knowledge of the phosphorus content, and thus the phosphorus-containing additives, in a lubricating oil or additive can be used to predict performance characteristics.
1. Scope
1.1 This test method covers the determination of 0.005 to 10.0 mass % phosphorus in unused lubricating oil and additive concentrates. There is no reason to doubt its applicability to filtered, used lubricating oils, but no systematic study of this application has been made.
1.2 The test method is applicable to samples containing any of the phosphorus compounds in normal use.
1.3 This test method is free from most interferences because the high insolubility of the quinoline phosphomolybdate precipitate leads to constant composition and freedom from most adsorbed or occluded impurities, especially from cations which would otherwise interfere in the subsequent titration of the precipitate.
1.4 Barium, calcium, magnesium, zinc, iron, aluminum, alkali salts, citric acid and citrates, chromium up to 18 times the phosphorus content, and titanium up to 3.5 times do not interfere with the test method.
1.5 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.
1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. For specific hazard statements, see 6.9.
2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.

Home made Wind Generator
Yes, I saw a two-blade job obviously made out of an alternator with a beefed up shaft on a Westsail 32 about three years back in Cobourg, Ontario. (Everything else on deck looked a tad "home-forged" as well, but it obviously worked!).
You can get a number of designs, ideas and troubleshooting tips from the ecology and "off the grid" crowd of homesteaders and green types who build straw-bale houses atop of hills just to get at the wind to power CD players pumping out those pan pipes. Hey, electricity for free is good! If you restrict yourself to "fair-weather amp making", you could hoist something off the deck hanging from the backstay. That's what the fellow I saw did. I mean, it's an alternator with a prop and special windings. All the other stuff can be black boxed prior to charge entering the batteries. Experiment away. Learn how to wind rotors. Learn how to shape prop blades. Just wear a helmet and goalie mask for the first 25 knot "field test", OK? There are enough ugly sailors as it is. |

Recent Rate: $35 5/2011
Latitude: 44.0804331709153

These reviews are the opinion of an RVParkReviews' member and not the views of RVParkReviews.com
Date of Stay: September, 2010 - $35.00
We stayed for a month at $350. The woman at the hotel desk (same management) wanted to charge us a higher rate but she checked with someone (not sure it was the manager) who said if that was what we were quoted then that is what we should be charged. The manager is a ghost. Poor maintenance in the park is true as previously noted. We were told that we could have mail delivered at the Park but learned that the manager never checks his PO box at the post office. Even the post office was aware of this. We used general delivery instead which worked perfectly. We endured a water outage of several hours and had to get the Park's router reset in order to use their internet service. We chose the location because of its proximity to Rexburg for shopping and other conveniences (about 30 miles) and to Yellowstone (55 miles). There is a very nice small grocery and several restaurants in Ashton. We camped at Ashton Inn and RV Park in a Fifth Wheel.
Date of Stay: August, 2010 - $35.00
POSITIVES: Convenient to highway; had all necessities (cable TV, 50 amp, good water pressure, WiFi) and fairly level. NEGATIVES: WEED CITY. The first day we were here, I spent picking the weeds out of our site's gravel, just so it looked better. Although we were in a motorhome, we chose a back-in spot in the very back of the park for more privacy and a little bit of grass for the dog. If possible, pick the back-in spot at the very rear, far left side. Best spot in the park. Mostly gravel park and this town is dead. There is very, very, very, did I mention VERY little to do in this town. We also thought we were closer to the Tetons and Yellowstone and found the dirt road the prior comment told about. We decided to try that road cause it looked like a shortcut, but 5 miles up it, we ran across a guy who said a grizzly bear had just been in the road. We turned around and went the long way home. This park would be fine for overnight only. Do Not Stay Here as a halfway point to Yellowstone and Tetons. You will regret it. We camped at Ashton Inn and RV Park in a Motorhome.
Date of Stay: August, 2010 - $35.00
First the positives about the park. Most sites are fairly level. Now the negatives. On the phone I was quoted $199.00 for the week. At check-in the woman at the counter who claimed she was new and not sure of the weekly rate charged me $245.00. After checking my notes I contacted the manager who told me "no problem" and he would take care of the charge to my card. This didn't happen so a couple days later I asked him again. He said he would take care of it. It is now late in the following week. We left the area and it has not been done. Looks like I'm out the additional charges. After check-in, we were told to take a campground map and pick a spot. The whole campground had an unkempt appearance. A bleak weed lot would be accurate. One camper who spoke to me early on said "the mower near his site had been sitting for a week". The pull-throughs have the services on the left side but any of the back-ins have it on the right. The first site I checked out had a dead rat in it. We did have a choice of some pull-throughs so selected one, dropped the legs on the 5th wheel and started to hook up. The water valve was broken and shot water everywhere. Checked the next site and it also had a broken valve. Finally found a site with all services working and moved to that space. There's a sign at the front of the park "Trout Pond Coming Soon" but the pond is actually a rain water retention pond with weeds all around it. The manager is seldom at the park. He appeared for a short time in the mornings and appears to be generally uninterested in the park itself. He did answer my cell call on the rate problem. We picked this campground because on a map it seems central to both Yellowstone and the Tetons. I discovered there is a road that goes to the middle of the parks but it is a dirt road and I was told very slow driving. Being closer to the west entrance to Yellowstone would have been better. If you were stuck for a place to spend the night this park could work out but that's about it. We camped at Ashton Inn and RV Park in a Fifth Wheel.
Date of Stay: July, 2010 - $34.00
Park was exactly as advertised. No surprises. Adjacent to motel. Office, pool etc., are located in the motel. Great restaurants in Ashton. About 50 miles from Yellowstone but we were delayed and lost our reservations in West Yellowstone. This was as close as we could get on very short notice. Clean and quiet. No WiFi at RV park but 3g worked well on my iPad and DW's Verizon AirCard worked well. Open sky for satellite. Great State Park nearby. Would stay again and see other sites. Took grandkids to Yellowstone Bear World, a private zoo/rescue park in Rexburg. Very nice. They fed baby bears and saw rare white elk (not albino). Bears, moose, elk etc., were roaming kind of free with a winding road to view them. We camped at Ashton Inn and RV Park in a Motorhome.
Date of Stay: June, 2010 - $30.00
Easy in easy out spacious pull throughs. Wi-Fi & cable works. Sites are level gravel pads with grass in between sites. Yellowstone and the Tetons are both about a one hour drive. We decided that we'd rather drive a bit farther and stay in a quiet serene park, rather than stay in the hectic parks in Yellowstone. Another bonus is there is a really nice golf course about 25 miles away in Rexburg. Groceries and other necessities are available in Ashton. No pool = minus 1, no showers minus 1/2, no activities minus 1/2, no paved sites minus 1 = a rating of 7. We camped at Ashton Inn and RV Park in a Fifth Wheel.
Date of Stay: March, 2010 - $11.00

My solution (some might call it a hack :-)) was instead of setting the cookie directly, I saved the cookie information into a particular Request field called "cookies". The Request fields DO get preserved when you forward to another servlet. Then I added a sleep() method to my SitePage that takes any cookies that were in the request field "cookies" and actually sets them. I don't have time to go into any more detail but if you really need to be able to set a cookie and then forward to another servlet, this solution may work for you. -- - Geoff Talvola gtalvola@... |

Two companies that manufacture products for women are under criticism for the advertisements they recently released supposed to be female-oriented.
The first one is Veet which makes waxing kits to help remove body hair, especially on the legs. Titled Don't Risk Dudeness, the three different ads carried the warning that if women don't shave their body hair, they would look like men, many of whom have hairy legs, arms, chest and face.
One advert, which runs for 32 seconds, showed (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UxCHLXQffsg) a couple waking up with the husband surprised that his wife looks like a man because of her unshaven body hair.
A second advert, which is shorter at 16 seconds, showed a woman (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5YkZsigq2s) getting a pedicure, but the beautician got a shock that the customer has hairy legs and face.
The15-second third advert features a sexy lady in green dress hailing a cab, and again bore the same message of looking like a male due to (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K5vO6MZn4WI) unshaved armpits.
The three adverts ends with the line "Don't risk dudeness, feel womanly around the clock" harvested a lot of negative comments in social media such as Facebook and Twitter, prompting Veet to pull out the offensive adverts. However, the three ads are available in YouTube and had become viral with a total of almost 100,000 hits within 2 days.
The main criticism against the adverts is that having unshaven body hair, which is something all humans are born with, is depicted as a masculine trait, in the processing shaming females who don't shave them.
Monika tweeted, "Thank you #veet for reinforcing the idea that women need to shave in order to be deemed wanted or attractive."
The Veet marketing team, in response to the criticisms, explained in a Facebook newsfeed that the idea behind the controversial advert came from females who said that at the first hint of a stubble, they felt like "dudes."
The team acknowledged that "Not everyone appreciated our sense of humor, We know that women define femininity in different ways. Veet helps those who choose to stay smooth. Our intention was never, ever, to offend anyone, so we decided to rethink our campaign and remove those clips. Thank you for letting us know how you feel."
Similarly, it was the definition of feminine beauty that was the concept behind the latest Dove Real Beauty campaign. The concept of the 4-minute advert (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGDMXvdwN5c), which has also become viral with more than half a million views in 1 day, revolves around a beauty patch called RB-X that helps women feel beautiful by rubbing it.
After a few days of wearing the patch, the women were told it was placebo and they experiment participants realised their concept of beauty must not be based on things they put on but accepting themselves for who they are.
That message was effectively conveyed in previous Dove commercial involving a sketch artist https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=litXW91UauE based on it going viral and getting more than 4 million views within the past 12 months.
Time magazine noted that Dove has used the feel-good strategy with great success the past decade by using female empowerment as an advertising strategy, but this time flopped because of its thinly veiled marketing ploy that there is a patch that makes women beautiful.
"It makes women so gullible, too desperate, and overall helpless against the all knowing master manipulators are Unilever," concluded Time writer Laura Stampler.

Game Day: Jeff Bryant, Jacob Green and Tony Woods -- had credit for a sack against Elway. Continue reading
Statistics: Season Summaries and Statistics
What We've Overheard: "The crowd was probably responsible for 50 sacks while I played." -- Jacob Green
Post Game:
No trio of defensive linemen stayed together longer than Green, Nash and Bryant.
August 1, 1994 No trio of defensive linemen stayed together longer than Green, Nash and Bryant. They lasted more than a decade and called themselves "The Diehards." "Last year was strange because it was our first camp without Jacob," Nash said. "This training camp is strange without Jeff. One of these years, Cortez is going to be saying, it's strange without Joe. That's the unpleasant part of the business, but that's the way it is. We'll see how long it goes."
The sold-out tournament features current and former sports celebrities paired
with corporate teams in a "scramble" format. Confirmed guests for this
year's event include:
Sam Adkins (former Seattle Seahawks)
The Golf Classic features the Blockbuster Video Putting Contest from 8 a.m.
until 4 p.m. Grand Prize for this contest is $10,000 for sinking a putt.
Other highlights of the Golf Classic are the Alderwood Cadillac and
Hole-in-One and the Lee Johnson Chevrolet closest-to-the-pin (first prize is
a one-year lease on an automobile).
Green, who lost his father to cancer, has been giving to the Hutchinson
Center and cancer research for years. Green has donated more than $600,000
to the Center to date. Each year Green designates funds to support two
clinical oncology fellows at the Center, one in memory of his father, Jacob
Green Sr., and another in memory of Pete Gross, a special friend and former
"voice of the Seahawks."
In 1996 the Hutchinson Center established the Jacob Green Atrium in
appreciation for Green's continued support in the fight to eliminate cancer.
The Atrium is located in the Weintraub Building of the Hutchinson Center's
Southeast Lake Union campus.
The 1999 Jacob Green Charity Golf Classic is sponsored by The Westin Seattle,
Costco Wholesale, Alaska Airlines, Sunmakers, Lowell DeYoung, and Bonnie and
Jim Towne.

By Craig Smith
KIRKLAND - Jacob Green, who made 116 sacks for the Seattle Seahawks, finally got sacked himself.
The Seahawks (1-7) released Green, 35, yesterday as part of a youth movement.
"I wish it could have ended differently, maybe with a Super Bowl or maybe playing the whole year out with these guys because I love them," Green said.
Green, the oldest defensive lineman in the National Football League, was placed on waivers. If no team claims him, he will be free to make a deal with any club.
He is not expected to be signed off waivers because the team claiming him would be obligated to pay half of his $1 million-plus 1992 salary.
Green named Buffalo, Kansas City and the Los Angeles Rams as teams that have expressed interest in him.
Green had not played at all this season and was waived from the team's injured-reserve list. He had been put on IR after final cuts with a sprained right knee suffered Aug. 22 in an exhibition game against Phoenix. He said the knee had healed by Week 2, but under league rules he didn't become eligible to come off IR status until Week 5.
The Seahawks didn't activate him then, and Coach Tom Flores had referred to Green in recent weeks as "insurance."
Flores said yesterday, "At this point, activating Jacob didn't make sense to the organization because defense is not what we need to fix. We need the fix on offense. We have some young defensive linemen that we need to think about for the future. Jacob
understood. I have tremendous respect for him and what he's done for this organization and for this town."
Among the young defensive ends in the Seahawks stable are Michael Sinclair, Natu Tuatagaloa and Tyrone Rodgers.
Flores said, "Money was not a factor in the decision. If money were a factor, it would have been done a long time ago."
The Seahawks could have cut Green, one of the team's highest-paid players, after four weeks on IR, but he was kept around until Week 8 was completed Sunday. If Green had been waived earlier and not claimed, the Seahawks would have been obligated to pay him through Week 8, the halfway mark of the season.
Asked if he thought the decision to cut him was motivated by finances, Green replied, "Oh, probably," then later added, "maybe it was, maybe it wasn't."
Asked if he was bitter about being cut, Green said he had been treated "very fairly" when the Nordstrom family owned the team.
"From the three years (actually four) that Mr. (Ken) Behring was up here until now, I can't really say," Green said. "I don't want to say that I was treated unfairly because I was fortunate enough to play 13 years here and that's all I care about. It's not really whether I was treated fairly or not."
Green said Flores had been up-front with him about his situation as it evolved this season.
Green said Flores offered him four options at the end of camp: retirement, being cut so he could try to sign with another team, full-season injured reserve (the Seahawks would have had to pay him his full salary) or regular IR. He said he picked regular IR.
Flores said Green hurt his chances of making the team with a three-week holdout in training camp.
Green is one of seven Seahawks who started the 1991 opener who no longer are with the team. The others: guard Edwin Bailey, tight end Mike Tice, quarterback Dave Krieg, running back Derrick Fenner, punter Rick Donnelly and defensive tackle Eric Hayes.
The waiving of Green means the end of the "Die-Hards," the defensive-line trio of Joe Nash, Jeff Bryant and Green, who had been together since 1982.
"What surprised me was that I'd be the first one out the door," Green said. "We all knew one of the three of us would be out. I guess it's only fitting that since I came in first I should leave first."
Green was the team's first-round draft pick in 1980 out of Texas A&M. He was the 10th player taken overall in that year's draft.
Green said one of his fondest memories as a Seahawk was the late-1983 road game against the New York Giants. The Giants appeared to have won the game with a touchdown pass, but referee Jerry Markbreit called a holding penalty on a New York player who pulled Green down.
"He would always tell me that was his greatest call," said Green, who had recovered a fumble earlier in the game.
The Seahawks won 17-12 and clinched their first playoff berth the next week with a victory over New England. They then went all the way to the AFC championship game, losing to the Flores-coached Raiders, who went on to win the Super Bowl.
Green said leaving the Seahawks "is tough because of the friendships you lose." He said he had been privileged to know and play with the likes of Dave Krieg, Kenny Easley, Curt Warner and Steve Largent.
"You miss those type of guys," Green said. "That's what it's all about. Certainly, I'll go on and live life and even if I don't play anymore, I'll be fine. But I think I can play. I really do.
"I'll always feel a part of the Seahawks regardless of what happens."
The Seahawks' all-time leaders in games played: . . . Steve Largent 1976-89 200 . . . Jacob Green 1980-92 178. . . Dave Brown 1976-86 159. . . Joe Nash 1982-92 154. . . Keith Butler 1978-87 146.

Educators from some California school districts are speaking out in support of a resolution passed last month by the state education board that said eighth-graders can take Algebra I or Mathematics I. In the past, students had to take Algebra I in eighth grade. Officials say the decision makes sense, partly because it fits with the Common Core State Standards and because many eighth-graders aren't yet ready for algebra.

A clerk who made Rs.30 crores!
Sunday December 18, 2011 07:59:51 PM,
Bhopal: He is a government clerk. But when officials raided his premises Sunday, they found to their shock he had assets worth Rs.30 crore including land, cars, jewellery and several bank accounts. The Economic Offences Wing of the Madhya Pradesh Police raided three properties belonging to Raman Dhuldhoye, 50, who works with the road transport office (RTO) in Indore. The team seized documents of several properties including 49 acres of land on the Indore-Khandwa Road, four plots in Sagar district, eight cars, gold and silver ornaments and several bank accounts and lockers. The clerk even had a personal assistant, Rupesh Kaushal. "A farmhouse land, which comprises a huge bungalow, was purchased for Rs.12 crore a few years ago. It is in one of Indore's prime locations. Today its cost would have multiplied many times," said Superintendent of Police Manoj Singh. The clerk had joined the RTO in 1996 and was earning a monthly salary of Rs.16,000. Raman's father Babulal Dhuldoye retired as road transport officer while his brother Pritiviraj is a deputy commissioner. "We had received several complaints against him but we had no idea that he would have such huge assets," said Manoj Singh, adding that the value of the properties may be over Rs.50 crore. "It will take some more time to complete the assessment," he added.

How do I un-Register a firearm
Ok, here's my situation. My dad gave me two handguns about ten years ago as a gift. (a .22 and a 9mm) since then I sold them to a couple from the same state (Virginia). I have misplaced the bill of sale and have no idea the names of the party involved. My question is how do I get my fathers name off the guns? Can I?
This was a stupid mistake, I didn't know the smart way was to go through a third party to make the sale. My dad myself and the people I sold them to are all from Virginia. |

In VA there is no gun registration. Your dad's name was never "registered" with those guns. The states and counties that require gun registration also require reporting of private sales to keep registrations current.

Losing the bill of sale, however, does present a potential problem, especially if you sold a firearm to a stranger and don't remember that person's name or address. If that firearm is ever used in a crime, you might one day receive a visit from a LEO and you might have to spend some "quality" time down at the police station until they're satisfied you weren't really involved with that crime.
My own opinion is that the bill of sale is an essential protection for the seller in the event of a private sale of a firearm, and should be kept and preserved in the same way you protect all of your other important papers. |

I completly understand. Does anyone have any advise where to go from here? I don't think I ever want my father to get that call. Would it be smart to report this to law enforcement and explan? Would this open up a can of worms?

You are making a mountain out of a mole hill. Private firearms transactions are perfectly legal in Virginia with NO PAPERWORK REQUIRED. What are you going to tell the police? I sold XYZ gun to someone, but don't remember who? I mean, sure, go ahead and call them if you would like someone from a LEO agency to tell you that you have nothing to worry about. You didn't do anything wrong or illegal, so it doesn't matter if you call them or not.
In fact, if I am not mistaken, firearms registration in VA is actually illegal - so that means that the police department CANNOT legally record the serial number of the firearm unless it is being reported as stolen. |

Anyway, there is no Federal or Virgina requirement for the original purchaser or any subsequent owner to keep any record of who they sold the gun to. So if the gun turns up at a crime scene, your dad probably won't be in any trouble unless there are some other indications that he had something to do with the crime. |

Simple solution to the problem and one recommended to me by an insurance agent I used to deal with.
Whether you have an original bill of sale or not, take clear pictures of the firearm with a high-resolution camera (much easier these days) that includes a shot of the serial number. Include in that shot a form of ID, pictured preferred. Keep those pictures with detailed description of the firearm including any defining marks i.e. scratches, initials, mods etc. with your other important papers like car titles etc. in a fireproof safe. If ever stolen, you have a full description including proof that it was yours for the authorities. |

Results 1 to 6 of 6
Just looked at the Lenovo LYNX and it looks great from what I can tell. Anyone know anything about this upcoming machine?
I'm interested in it. I've had a surface RT, a lenovo yoga 13 and currently a samsung ativ smart pc. All 3 returned so far for various reasons.
Loved the surface...RT is not enough for me right now though. maybe in a year or so.
Love the yoga 13.....as a laptop... but I don't need a laptop and ultimately it was too large for tablet usage realy.
Thought I would love the Samsung... I hate it. Plastic back makes your hand sweat constantly. Have to reboot very often. Dead spots in the touch screen at various times. Bloatware that is a ***** to uninstall at times. Really laggy just web browsing pages in chrome. I honestly don't know if this is a defective unit or if it's what I have to look forward to with Atom tablets. I guess I need to convince myself that my atom tablet will be used essentially like an RT tablet with the ability to occasionally jump on chrome or other moderate desktop stuff.
Anyway I'm really interested in checking out the Lynx. I have another 10 days or so to return this Samsung which I definitely am. Now that I've tried an i5-i7 type, an RT type and an Atom type I can't decide if I want to go back to the Surface or continue waiting on something else. First world problems, I know.
Anyway yeah.. would love to have more info on release date and such on this tablet. I'm interested for sure. Between this and the Asus at this point if they ever release anything. - 11-14-2012, 12:22 AM #3
Thanks for the input. I currently own the RT and like it for what it is but need full blown Windows 8 tablet for laptop replacement. Win Pro is going to come out too late for me as I need something sooner than it will release.
Makes me kind of happy that i did not pick that Samsung today even on a really good deal. Just like you said i was not impressed by the build quality at all, slightly thicker than other atom tablets, TFT screen and no battery on the keyboard.
Picking up Vivo Tab next week. - 11-16-2012, 07:56 PM #5
I think that I am going to buy 2 of the Lenovo Lynx machines when they come out. I wish that I knew the release date.
I would think it's a defect.
Do you know how much it'll cost? From what I'm seeing it's not exactly available yet but the stores that will be offering it are showing a price of $950 USD for the tablet and keyboard dock combo, and I think $799 for the tablet only.Seems pricey. The HP Envy X2 is $100 less, but I think the stylus is optional, and I'm still not sure if it's a wacom digitizer.Phone History (hopefully in order): Samsung SGH-D407 > AT&T (HTC) Tilt > Sony Ericsson W580 > Blackberry Curve 8900 > Sony Ericsson C901 > HTC Touch Pro 2 > Blackberry 9700 > iPhone 3GS > Motorola Defy > Blackberry 9650 > iPhone 4 > Nokia E71 > Dell Venue Pro > HTC Titan > HTC Titan II > Lumia 900 + Samsung Galaxy Exhibit > Nokia Lumia 920 + Nokia Lumia 521 + Motorola RAZR V3xx

Sen. Mike Lee
How scores are calculated
Sen. Lee Lifetime Average: 99%
VOTES (10 of 10)
HEITKAMP AMENDMENT SUPPORTING THE WIND PRODUCTION TAX CREDIT | The amendment, introduced by Sen. Heidi Heitkamp (D-ND), expresses the sense of the Senate that the Wind Production Tax Credit and seven other now-expired tax credits for green energy production should be reauthorized and extended until 2020. At the beginning of the year, special interest tax breaks for wind, closed-loop biomass, open-loop biomass, geothermal and solar energy facilities, landfill gas facilities, trash facilities, qualified hydropower facility, and marine and hydrokinetic renewable energy facilities expired. | ||
KEYSTONE XL PIPELINE | This week, the Senate began consideration of the Keystone XL Pipeline Act (S. 1), which mirrors the bill (H.R. 3) approved by the House on January 9th. The project would increase American energy security, create thousands of jobs, and increase revenue in the states it runs through. | ||
DHS FUNDING BILL: A BLANK CHECK FOR AMNESTY | On Friday, February 27, the Senate adopted a substitute amendment (#255) offered by Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) to the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act (H.R. 240). Heritage Action was key voting in favor of the House-passed DHS funding bill prior to the adoption of the McConnell Amendment, which essentially removed language that would have denied funding and resources for the President's unconstitutional amnesty. With the adoption of the substitute amendment, Heritage Action will key vote against H.R. 240 and include it as a key vote on our legislative scorecard. | ||
FIGHTING THE UN ARMS TRADE TREATY | On Friday, March 27, the Senate considered numerous amendments to the Senate Budget Resolution (S Con Res 11). Introduced by Senator James Inhofe (R-OK), this amendment prohibits the funding of international organizations responsible for the implementation of the United Nations Arms Trade Treaty (ATT) prior to Senate ratification. ATT contains provisions that require export and import controls on weapons. | ||
MANDATORY PAID SICK LEAVE | On Friday, March 27, the Senate considered numerous amendments to the Senate Budget Resolution (S Con Res 11). Introduced by Senator Patty Murray (D-WA), this amendment instructs the appropriations committee to set aside funds for a government program that establishes paid sick leave as well as "promote equal employment opportunities." | ||
SAME-SEX "MARRIAGE" BENEFITS | On Friday, March 27, the Senate considered numerous amendments to the Senate Budget Resolution (S Con Res 11). Introduced by Senator Brian Schatz (D-HI), this amendment would provide Social Security and veterans benefits for legally married same-sex spouses. | ||
$500 BILLION DOC FIX | The Senate voted on the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015 (H.R. 2). The bill, negotiated by Rep. John Boehner (R-OH) and Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), would permanently repeal Medicare\'s Sustainable Growth Rate (SGR) while making some small-scale reforms to the entitlement program and extending other programs such as the Clinton-era Children\'s Health Insurance Program (CHIP). The package will likely increase America's debt by $500 billion over the next two decades. | ||
LEE MOTION TO STRIKE PAY-GO EXEMPTION FROM "DOC FIX" PACKAGE | Senators voted on a motion to strike Sec. 525 from the House-passed Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015 (H.R. 2), the so-called permanent doc fix. The amendment, offered by Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) would strike the bill's provision exempting it from PAYGO. If adopted with a majority vote, the change would require Congress to offset the $141 billion cost of the bill, including at least $7 billion this year. | ||
LEAHY AMENDMENT TO UNDERMINE RELIGIOUS FREEDOM | The Senate voted on the Runaway and Homeless Youth and Trafficking Prevention Act (S. 262) as an amendment to the long-stalled Justice for Victims of Trafficking Act of 2015 (S. 178). Introduced by Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-VT), the amendment contains language that would undermine basic civil rights and our nation's commitment to religious freedom. | ||
CONFIRMATION OF LORETTA LYNCH FOR ATTORNEY GENERAL | The Senate vote leading to the confirmation of Loretta Lynch to serve as Attorney General. |

I caught (and released) this small billfish in the Pacific near Cabo San Lucas a couple of weeks ago. Initially it was said to be a small striped marlin, then the mate claimed it was a white marlin becasue of the short dorsal fin, but later said it wasn't a striped or white, but couldn't remember the name of it. From my research I think its a young blue marlin. Any ideas what it is or who to send the pic to for positive ID? -Thanks!
Not a white,a blue the dorsal is shoter than the depth of the body and a stripper is taller than the depth of the body.Tom
Any more pics? That thing has one very small pectoral fin! It's tripping me out..... weird..... who knows, maybe from an encounter in it's earlier years of life. Do you remember if the other pectoral fin was really small like that? The unknown fisherman:
that white vs striped is a wholllle big topic!I'm glad you got a picture.I've been told a couple times that I had whites(never took a picture).Immature stripey?white?,are they even really separate species or just long lost cousins?The more I read up,the more it gets muddied.I hope the real experts weigh in,you've got bigfoot on film-let's hear!
The bill is a little long though. The long billed spearfish resides more in the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico. What seems to say spearfish though is the very high pointy drosal fin. Had the angler strecthed out the dorsal more it would show how oddly uneven and pointy high it is. Jack
My very first take was that as well, but you cant really see how long the bill is, plus the fish has a very large tail, and the short billed SF have the smallest tail of all bill fishes..... so that kinda throws that out for me anyways. Still tripping on how crazy small the pectoral is on the one side. Birth defect or what? Then again the pectoral on the spearfish are the smallest of all the billfish also. If that were a spearfish, then it would be a pretty damn healthy one..... just dont think it is though. The unknown fisherman
I can't seem to upload the only other pic I have, but it shows the length of the bill is too long to be a short billed spear, but maybe a long billed spearfish. I don't remember the length of the other pectoral fin. I was guessing a blue because the dorsal was shorter than the depth of the body and I thought whites were an Atlantic fish. Thanks for the input.
It's a striped marlin. Irrespective of the dorsal (which is not pulled up) the tail configuration, the body and the lower jaw all say striped marlin. Body is too compressed and the lower jaw is too long to be a blue. Dorsal on a short bill spearfish is nearly equal in height all along it's length. Plus that would be a monster of a short bill spearfish. The dorsal on a striped marlin is pointed while on a white the first few rays are equal and create a square block. Also the pectoral fins on a white have rounded tips. There has never been biological DNA evidence of white marlin in the Pacific, only misinformed anglers wondering about deformed stripes over drinks at the bar.
I agree it's a striped marlin, but that still is one freakish little pectoral fin. Nemo fin ..... yep, that's definitely a Nemo fish The unknown fisherman
At first I thought a spearfish. However, everyone is correct about the dorsal and the longer bill, and freakish large tail. Would like to see the dorsal fully extended, but my thoughts would be a baby blue, or a striped marlin.
Ok, I am going to change my mind.... I blew up the picture and got a better pic. The give away is the pectoral fin. It is out to the side and not folded flat against the body. That means one thing.... Baby Black Marlin.
There is another Marlin species that is found in the Atlantic that is like a cross between a Longbill Spearfish and a White Marlin called a Hatchet Marlin. I have read where someone thought they caught a Hatchet off of Cabo one time before. Could be a very rare possibility.
