AkzoNobel's Decorative Paints business continues its crash diet, with a newly announced plan to shed its German paint stores immediately after selling off its North American unit. The German shift, announced Wednesday (June 26), follows the company's $1.05 billion sale of its North American decorative paints business to PPG Industries. That deal, which involved about 600 stores, was announced in December and closed in the spring.
AkzoNobel said it would focus on Sikkens and other brands. The "Sikkens Experience" brings the brand to end users.
AkzoNobel said the new sale would allow the company to "sharpen [its] distribution focus" in Germany.
With the divestment of the Decorative Paints stores, that focus will shift toward the company's range of industrial coatings, which are produced at several sites across Germany.
Scope of the Deal
AkzoNobel currently operates 72 German stores selling professional paint and third-party products, with the Decorative Paints organization employing about 950 people in Germany.
In total, AkzoNobel's Decorative Paints, Performance Coatings and Specialty Chemicals businesses have 3,900 employees in Germany, along with 17 manufacturing plants and eight offices, generating revenue of close to €1.3 billion (about $1.6 billion USD) in the country in 2012.
AkzoNobel said the new deal "is intended to strengthen the performance of the company's German Decorative Paints business by focusing its activities on the distribution and marketing of paint under brands such as Sikkens, Herbol and Consolan."
Changing Distribution
The new set-up "will allow AkzoNobel to select the most efficient distribution channels for its professional paint products, rather than operating its own stores," the company said.
AkzoNobel will "enter into strategic partnership agreements with the future shop owners, as well as strengthening its relationship with its existing network of independent distributors."
AkzoNobel continues to make coil coatings in Nuremburg.
Ruud Joosten, the company's Executive Committee member responsible for Decorative Paints, said, "We are changing the marketing strategy of our German Decorative Paints business to focus on our key organizational strengths of marketing and distributing our strong paint brands.
"This is part of our ongoing efforts to strengthen both our organizational efficiency and our profitability in Germany." 'Important Market'
Werner Fuhrmann, the Executive Committee member responsible for Specialty Chemicals and Germany, said that the country "has always been, and will remain, an important market for AkzoNobel."
Fuhrmann sought to dispel any impression that AkzoNobel was weakening its presence in the country.
"The company is continuing to invest in Germany, evidenced by recent acquisitions including Schramm (2011), Lindgens Metal Decorating Coatings (2010), Dow Chemicals' Rohm & Haas business (2010) and LII Europe (2009)," he said.
"A total of €140 million [$181.9 million USD] is also being invested in new technology at a chemicals plant in Frankfurt, which is expected to go on stream in the first quarter of 2014."
The company produces industrial coatings in Frankfurt. AkzoNobel said it was committed to Germany, which it called an important market.
At the same time, however, the Dutch coating giant said it would be "reviewing its office footprint in Germany."
Said Fuhrmann: "These improvements are intended to reduce complexity and further improve the operational efficiency of our German activities. They will boost our competitiveness and help us to greater success for our businesses in Germany going forward."

Perhaps another topic or discussion for the weekend?.
No matter what the problem or issue, would you complain and possibly go further or just "get on with your life" in the hope that the issue might resolve itself?.

How long is a piece of string?
I do make complaints if I think it would be helpful to me or to the supplier.

"No matter what the problem or issue" - The nature of the problem or issue does affect how I respond. It depends on whether I regard it as trivial or not. To a certain extent it depends on how much time I have.

I complained [along with my neighbour] when our tiled verandahs were resurfaced to be made to look like 'a lunar landscape'.
Thankfully, everything is now back to normal [ie. retiled]; the cost of the work being waivered by the local housing association. [~£400]

Absolutely, particularly at poor service from wherever it comes from. But the likes of a government department of my local NHS trust is not for the faint hearted. The former as in the DWP has 50+ call centres scattered the length and breadth of the UK and you are guaranteed not to get the same one twice. So once you have phoned and set out your problem it is then up to the agent the other end to then input the information into the system so anyone else accessing your file can instantly know what the problem is and what help has been given in the past. In theory, in practice each time you phone you have to go though everything again. Nightmare.
My local NHS is quite fond of, how shall we put it delicately, being economic with the truth.
But I have become quite experienced with these bureaucracies and will use the Freedom of Information Act to support my complaint.

To add my bit, I am one of those people who thinks if an injustice as been done, then I would make it my duty for find how this injustice could be corrected.
I have on many occasions gone to various levels within organisations, if I find that the first responses have not been correct or proper, and in a vast amount of cases, when I have done this, it's actually provided results and rewards. So in my opinion, it does pay to complaint, comment or suggest, and possibly going to the 'right' person, if everything else seems impossible or ignored.
Take a typical example for me. A couple or so weeks ago, I was 'treated' to a very poor telephone customer care service response. Through that I decided to make a formal complaint or suggestion in writing. Now I do not know what happened behind the scenes, but I had a letter response that virtually told me nothing, except the manager dealing with the problem had closed the case (?). I in response, requested why the case had been closed, as I had not been provided with answers.
Result of that letter, more senior people have made contact with me, and have apologised about the way things developed. I never asked for any apology, but I got three, one via two telephone calls, one via a rapid response letter, and the third by a very nice cash 'reward' placed straight into my bank account within an hour of receiving the telephone apology.
Not only that, but while discussing the original issues, I added a further issue that had occured during that day. Result of that, was a promise that an email would be sent immediately to a manager concerned, so the problem could be rectified for other customers and users of the service.
The same seems to apply with other complaints or suggestions I have raised in the past, so perhaps for me, its well worth the effort and time, and perhaps by doing so, as benefited others as well?.
My motto: Always be polite, and never say never!.

Depends. Often, it's not worth the personal hassle to complain, and I'd rather not waste my time & effort... better things to do.
Sometimes it's worth it, either for the personal satisfaction or gain that I'd expect to get, or for the fact that things might not go wrong for somebody else.
Mostly, I think too many people complain rather than do something positive... and complaining is less-often rewarding than people tend to think.
Having said that, in the distant past, on Radio 4, there was a chap called Jasper Greigson (I think) who was a moneysaver & campaigner long before Martyn Lewis cornered the market. The story goes (apocryphal or not) that he was bored one weekend, and had completely run out of valid issues to complain about...
So he wrote, for the first and only time, to Harrods...
He wrote in terms of distress, he wrote pained at their non-response, he wrote that he'd had enough, and could stand it no more, and that having already said all he could on the matter, he could no longer find words to describe how he felt at being let down so many times, and could they please, please, please draw the matter to a final conclusion.
They wrote back. They apologised profusely. They apologised for their lack of response, and the poor manner in which he'd been treated. They agreed with him it had all gone on too long, and that they'd attend to it as soon as possible. And they enclosed a considerable number of gift tokens for all the trouble he'd been put to.
The issue at heart was never mentioned by Harrods, and never mentioned by Jasper.
Now, that's successful complaining. Now, what's the address for IDG Publications?

I know some people make a career, or at least a leisure pastime, of complaining. I try to be more pragmatic. Knowing how often I fail to achieve the standard I would like I recognise that there will always be failings.
I think it is important to determine which of those is significant enough to warrant taking action.
Would I write to the local council to point out that the crew that spent this week patching up the road out of the village missed two small areas? No, I wouldn't.
Did I complain when a lifeguard at the pool in Berwick turned on the wave machine and nearly drowned my wife? You bet I did.

[copy/paste description from dA]I've sure everyone already knows, but my state was hit pretty hard in the tornado outbreak on Friday. :c There were several funnel clouds that passed over my city (I saw two myself xD) but none of them actually developed into full blown tornadoes thankfully! We got a lot of really large hail though, some over golf ball sized in parts of my county.I feel so lucky. <3 There are a lot of places here that are completely devastated and I could have easily been in the same situation....and now they're saying my area is suppose to get 2-3 inches of snow! D: Guys, don't come to Kentucky. xD It's no fun here.Anyway! About the picture, I wanted to paint clouds because I have so much fun with them!

A three-goal burst in five minutes at the end of the first half fired Ukraine to a comprehensive victory over the Faroe Islands in this UEFA EURO 2008™ Group B qualifier in Kiev.
Maxym Kalynychenko's fine individual effort put the hosts ahead on 40 minutes and Oleh Gusev capitalised on two mistakes to score twice more before half-time. Kalynychenko claimed his second with a header four minutes into the second half before Andriy Vorobey added the fifth on 64 minutes.
Home coach Oleh Blokhin had made five changes to the side that lost 3-1 in Scotland on Saturday, with Andriy Shevchenko left out of the squad despite having registered his fourth goal from six qualifiers in Glasgow. Ukraine were eliminated after that match, and they looked to put that disappointment behind them with a bright start here.
Floodgates open
Serhiy Nazarenko was twice denied by Faroe Islands goalkeeper Jákup Mikkelsen, and Andriy Voronin and Anatoliy Tymoschuk also tried their luck from the edge of the area before Kalynychenko finally struck the opener. The FC Spartak Moskva midfielder cut in from the left, past two defenders, then shot beyond Mikkelsen. There was no way back for the visitors and Gusev made it 3-0 before half-time. First he pounced on defender Einar Hansen's weak back-header to fire past the stranded Faroese goalkeeper, then he tapped in after Mikkelsen had spilled Tymoschuk's long-range drive.
Finishing off
Ukraine picked up from where they had left off after the restart. Just four minutes after the resumption, Olexiy Gai crossed for Kalynychenko to nod in his second goal of the game. Next, substitute Vorobey applied the finishing touch to Andriy Nesmachniy's centre to complete the rout at the NSC Olympiyskiy Stadium.

Giere, Ronald (2009) Representing with Physical Models. [Preprint]
Microsoft Word - Accepted Version Download (59Kb) |
Physical models have long been used to represent a great many things. By and large, however, the representational powers of physical models have been taken for granted in recent philosophy of science. Interest has focused on more ubiquitous and seemingly more important theoretical models, particularly those found in mathematical physics. In this paper, I focus on physical models, comparing them with theoretical models and finally with recently popular computational models. My aim is to show that the representational aspects of models used in science are fundamentally the same across all three categories of models.

The Software concept
The quality of a JTAG/Boundary Scan system is significantly determined by the performance and architecture of the used software.
In 1991 GOEPEL electronic has been developing an integrated Boundary Scan software development environment named SYSTEM CASCON.
Since then the uniqueness of the Boundary Scan workbench has been continuously expanded through the integration of new intelligent tools, along with innovative system extensions and improvements of the user interface.
Software updates are available via our customer web site GENESIS.
To perfectly address the needs of development, production and customer service, the software packages are available in dedicated performance classes as Development Stations (DS) and Test/Execution Stations (TS/ES). In-system-programming (ISP) tasks can be executed with CASCON POLARIS editions. The CASCON GALAXY version supports ISP and test methods.
The right tools for your application
VarioTAP by GOEPEL electronic is a technology for the fusion of Boundary Scan and Processor Emulation Test. This comprehensive suite bridges the gap towards achieving higher testing dynamics and also enables synchronisation with external I/O channels.

Code runner | real time |
Chip-embedded instruments can prevent the problems with access points prevalent in traditional external instruments, while SYSTEM CASCON – by virtue of ChipVORX® technology and open software interfaces – is able to simultaneously access and control both classes. This ability greatly improves the capacity and test coverage of the entire system.

*VarioCore is a proprietary technology for the reconfi guration of I/O modules |
Tool Suite for Functional I/O Test
In addition to structural tests, SYSTEM CASCON also offers tools for functional testing. Here, too, CASLAN multipurpose control language is a key feature. To generate tests, one can either import simulation vectors in IEEE 1445 format, or resort to behavior models in the CASCON library. Selected PXI or SCANFLEX modules by GOEPEL electronic, which can generate the vectors dynamically, can be used as external I/O drivers.

Man Guilty in Fatal Marion County Home Invasion Shooting
Published April 30th, 2013
Loading Video...
GAINESVILLE - A Marion County jury found 26 year old Jolgar Desir guilty Sunday of murder, attempted murder, home invasion robbery with a firearm and kidnapping with a firearm.
Prosecutors weren't seeking the death penalty, so he'll receive a mandatory life sentence at a May 3rd hearing.
Authorities say 43 year old Robert Jamerson was shot and killed at his Orange Lake home in August 2009.
His younger brother, Terrence, also was shot but survived wounds to his shoulder and back.
Authorities believe Desir, whose fingerprint was found at the scene, was one of two men who had gone to the home looking for drugs.
The second man has not been caught.

June 17, 2008
Summer Days (And Summer Nights) was a bit of a regression from the success of Today, lapsing back into that distressing division between first-rate cuts and lightweight also-rans that characterized their pre-1965 albums. The difference is that the very best tracks were operating on a more sophisticated level than the 1962-1964 classics. "Help Me, Rhonda" was a number one single and would be their last Top 40 exercise in sheer fun for a while. More impressive was "California Girls," with its symphonic arrangement, glorious harmonies, and archetypal statement of Californian lifestyle. On the other hand, subpar efforts like "Amusement Park U.S.A." and "Salt Lake City," throwbacks to the empty-headed summer filler of previous days, will necessitate that the CD remote button remains close at hand. The answer song "The Girl From New York City" and the cover "Then I Kissed Her" are well done but don't break new ground. Yet a couple of cuts are among their most essential LP-only efforts. "Let Him Run Wild" is a soulful ballad with a great Brian Wilson falsetto vocal. "Girl Don't Tell Me," with its gorgeous melody, fine lead vocal debut from Carl Wilson, and subtle depiction of romantic rejection and disappointment, may be the best obscure pre-Pet Sounds Beach Boys track. [Today/Summer Days (And Summer Nights), a Capitol two-fer CD, combines this and Today onto one disc, adding alternate takes of "Dance, Dance, Dance," "I'm So Young," and "Let Him Run Wild," as well as a previously unreleased studio version of "Graduation Day." Most significantly, it also adds the non-LP single from late 1965, "The Little Girl I Once Knew," which looked forward to Pet Sounds in its studio experimentation and lyrical themes.] Richie Unterberger, Rovi

Style | Traditional |
What are you most proud of? This was a photograph i had taken a couple of years ago and kept just waiting for inspiration to create a panel. I knew I wanted to create the panel but with Wendy's course I had the ideas and instructions to go ahead. Wendy had so many helpful tips and ideas I am always taking photographs with the ideas of panels now.
What advice would you give someone starting this project? Always use your own material as inspiration as then it truly is your project. As long as you have scaled up to size and created all the templates, the rest is easy!! I was pleased that I had my own dyed fabrics which I used for the beach and sky as that makes it even more individual.

GF13-012NN Viking Gundam
Normal version
Equipped with boat and heat oars
Model number: GF13-012NN Code name: Viking Gundam Unit type: mobile fighter Nationality: Neo Norway First deployment: FC 60 Accommodation: pilot only, in 360 degree cockpit using Mobile Trace System and Core Lander Dimensions: head height 16.9 meters Weight: empty 8.1 metric tons; max gross 22.8 metric tons Armor materials: gundarium alloy super-ceramic composite rare metal hybrid Powerplant: ultracompact fusion reactor, power output rating unknown Propulsion: unknown Ability points: unknown Equipment and design features: boat Fixed armaments: 16 x vulcan gun, fire-linked, mounted on main body Optional hand armaments: 4 x harpoon; many x heat oars, stored on boat
Neo Norway's GF13-012NN Viking Gundam utilizes the boats used by the Vikings of ancient history. The Viking Gundam is able to fight in the water or land, much like Neo Denmark's GF13-026ND Mermaid Gundam. However, unlike the transforming Mermaid Gundam, Eric's Viking Gundam uses a boat. The Viking Gundam is armed with 16 vulcan guns spread across its body. It's also armed with 4 harpoons, which it can use to impale its opponents. The Viking Gundam can also attack with a nearly unlimited supply of heat oars which are stored in the boat. Eric qualifies for the Finals in Neo Hong Kong, but is defeated early on by Neo Germany's Schwarz Bruder and his GF13-021NG Gundam Spiegel.
Pilot: Eric the Viking Appearances: Mobile Fighter G Gundam; Mobile Fighter G Gundam (manga) Original mechanical designer: Kunio Okawara

Small parts turned with a zero-radius, 55º profiling insert (right).
When turning 2mm-dia. and smaller parts on a Swiss-style machine, it only makes sense that the radius on the tool should be equally tiny. After all, you can't cut a 0.5mm bone screw with a TNMG-431 insert—the tool's nose radius is nearly as big as the part.
In addition, said Jim Gosselin, owner of Genevieve Swiss Industries Inc., Westfield, Mass., "some parts, such as in the RF (radio frequency)-connector industry, can't have any radius at all. It messes up the component's electrical properties."
Without a radius, you're probably thinking the tool will chip on the first workpiece. Think again. Microscale indexable-insert tools are designed to handle this sort of work. Gosselin explained: "We've gone to submicron-grade carbide on all our tools. That means the grain size is very small, so the tools are very tough—even with a dead-sharp radius. And the edges have to be very sharp, so everything is ground to size, and then we use a special process to remove the grinding burr, followed by a PVD coating for good wear resistance."
Perhaps the most important geometry on a microtool is the wiper that's ground on the tool tip. This wiper is a flat—perhaps 0.05 " wide—on the trailing edge, with a clearance angle of 1° or less. "Depending on the material and part diameter, you can actually feed one of these tools at a couple thousandths of an inch per revolution, even with a zero radius," Gosselin said. Great, the tool might last, but won't the part have a surface finish no better than a corncob? No. "The trailing edge does more than support the tool tip. It also wipes off the mountaintops, providing a smooth finish," he added.
Zero-radius or small-nose-radius tools are often required for Swiss-style machining of microparts. Top: a Utilis theoretical zero-radius VPGT Multidec-TOP insert. Middle: An ultra-sharp VCGT with 0.0012 " nose radius. Bottom: A typical 0.015 "-nose-radius VCMT insert. All tools are from GenSwiss.
"Everyone knows the usual solution to improving surface finish is to either increase the tool nose radius or reduce the feed rate," Gosselin said. "Both of these are practical solutions in normal turning. However, for microturning, a larger nose radius is the wrong prescription for curing the poor surface finish 'flu.' The same is somewhat true for reducing the feed rate."
The issue gets back to the cutting edge. For proper cutting to occur, the material must flow over the top of the cutting edge. If the cutting edge of the insert has a 0.0002 " edge prep, then the feed rate must be larger than 0.0002 ". "If not, then the tool does not have adequate clearance, so, in effect, you're just pushing the material out of the way and not cutting it," said Gosselin.
Although called "zero radius," there has to be some radius, otherwise the tip would chip. Most microtool manufacturers claim anything from 0.0001 " to 0.0012 ". Just remember that the bigger the radius, the bigger the deflection, and because tolerances on microparts decrease in direct relation to the part's size, part manufacturers might be targeting grinding-quality tolerances of +0.0002 "/-0.0000 " or tighter. The slightest amount of deflection on a tolerance this tight and you'll have the QA department riding you like a circus pony.
Another important consideration when Swiss-style turning microparts is keeping the tool close to the guide bushing. "The guide bushing is everything on a Swiss," Gosselin stressed. "It doesn't matter how heavy the machine is, how fast it can go or what features the machine has; all this is meaningless unless you have a high-quality guide bushing and can get your tools right next to the bushing."
Gosselin noted that experienced Swiss-style machinists don't like to produce small parts on a big machine. But doesn't a big machine provide greater flexibility with more tools and more power? Maybe, but the tools are closer to the guide bushing on a small machine. "On a 20mm machine, you're 2mm to 3mm away from the guide bushing," he said. "You'll see more flex in the workpiece than the board used in a freestyle diving competition."
Turning microparts on a Swiss-style machine is challenging, concurred John Dotday, small parts specialist at Sandvik Coromant Co., Fair Lawn, N.J. Aside from the need for high-quality, precision-ground, PVD-coated, zero-radius cutting tools, Dotday pointed out the importance of tool centerline. "Proper centerline is critical. Achieving it is up to the operator, and how carefully he touches off when setting tools. A lot of the parts being made these days are so small you need a microscope to see the details."
Monitoring coolant pressure is also critical. "We're seeing high-pressure coolant systems today up to 2,000 psi," Dotday said. "Hitting a small part with that much pressure can distort it and introduce vibration, either of which can mean bad parts."
Dotday recommends buying centerless-ground bar stock—the rounder and more consistent the better. "Any out-of-roundness in your bar stock gets transferred into the workpiece," he said. "Ground stock costs more money, maybe 50 percent more, but your component quality goes up by about 90 percent."
Successful Swiss-style turning also requires buying the highest-quality tooling, including cutting tools, toolholders, guide bushings and collets, according to Glen Crews, western regional sales manager for Swiss-style machine builder Marubeni Citizen-Cincom Inc., Allendale, N.J. "Don't let your purchasing department go cheap on you," he emphasized. "They might save a few bucks up front, but you'll lose thousands later in rework costs or scrapped parts and broken inserts."
When it comes to machine size, Crews noted that a small unit isn't always necessary. "You can turn 1mm parts on a 20mm machine, but you have to configure the machine properly," he said.
Again, the trick is to get the tools as close to the guide bushing as possible. This might mean modifying the toolholders or shimming the tool. "You have to be almost touching the guide bushing," Crews said. "You might look at extended-nose guide bushings, especially if you're going to be cross-working, as live tools are typically 8mm to 10mm further away than turning tools."
You can throw your Machinery's Handbook out the window when you're working with microparts. "There are no hard and fast rules," Crews said. "With micromachining, you have to experiment and play around with things to get it right. Feed too slow and you'll workharden (the workpiece), go too fast and you'll have a rotten finish. Each company invents their own tricks.
This diagram illustrates why large-nose-radius inserts are typically not recommended for Swiss-style machining of microparts. In a large-nose-radius insert (right) or medium-nose radius (center), the radius can be as big as the micropart it is being used to cut. Instead, small-nose-radius inserts (left) or zero-radius inserts should be used.
"Working this small is painstaking and tedious," Crews continued. "You don't have a lot of room for error. For example, tool heights have to be absolutely perfect, so you need a good setup man. There's definitely a set of skills that come into play here. That's why there aren't that many people who want to get into it."
And you can pretty much resign yourself to shorter tool life when Swiss-style turning small parts. "Tool life won't be as good as it is with larger parts," Crews warned. "That small nose radius is prone to breakage. On a larger part, you might be able to accept a few thousandths wear—not so with microparts."
"Tools cut for two reasons," said GenSwiss' Gosselin. "They are harder than the material being cut, and there is clearance under the cutting edge." The following are several reasons why commodity inserts don't cut it for small parts.
■ Most inserts have a prepped cutting edge, sometimes called a K-land. The K-land is different than a nose radius. It is a hone applied to the cutting edge to smoothly round it. It strengthens the edge of an insert by removing sharp burrs, loose material deposits and weak inclusion areas that may have been introduced during sintering or grinding. However, when small-diameter turning, the K-land on a low-cost tool is too big. It causes the part to deflect or rubs the part rather than cutting it. This is because the chamfer, or radius, of the K-land is below the top cutting surface of the insert. Therefore, the tool has insufficient cutting clearance and won't properly cut. This is usually evident by part breakage during cutting or surface scuff marks.
■ Usually, the coatings applied to general-purpose inserts are too thick for turning small parts. Even a properly prepared tool will not perform well if it is CVD-coated. CVD coatings can be 12µm to 18µm thick, and the result during the cutting process is similar to a tool with a K-land on a low-cost tool.
■ The tool nose radius is too large. The more surface contact a tool has with the material, the greater the applied force. As the material being cut is less rigid than the tool, it deflects away. The vibration and deflection can cause the material to climb on top of the tool.
Specialty inserts might cost more than standard inserts—depending on the manufacturer you could spend up to three times as much—but you can be sure you're getting high-quality tools that deliver top performance and extend tool life in micromachining applications. Those advantages far outweigh the added investment. CTE

decathlon title, three records
Two years after senior Michael Karchner claimed his first Centennial Conference decathlon title, he won it again in his last
Karchner almost doubled his 289-point lead from day one of the championships, capturing the gold medal with a total of 5892 points, 568 in front of the second-place competitor. Muhlenberg's senior Paul Kegelman improved his position from seventh to fifth, accumulating 3910 points.
Karchner not only brought a title for the Mules, but also scored
two more team points in the long jump with his seventh-place finish and qualified for tomorrow's final in the 110m hurdles along with classmate Adam Carter.
Despite the absence of multiple athletes unable to compete at the CC
In a spectacular 3000m steeplechase race, in which the top eight finishers improved their season bests, junior David Chorney shattered his own school record by over five seconds in his only second time running the event as he placed third in 9:27.79.
Sophomore Jeremiah Lachaud broke a dusty 13-year school record in the 200m as he crossed the line in 22.14, earning the right to run in the finals.
The third new school standard was set by the young 4x800m relay team of freshmen Abby Simons, Hannah Mitchell and Kim Bier and sophomore Lauren Conicella, which ate up over 13 seconds of the old mark as they finished third in 9:36.85.
Following the women's example, the 4x800m Muhlenberg men's relay team of Chris Dolan, Bobby Torphy, Chorney and Patrick Thornton also claimed podium position, placing third in 8:06.65.
Torphy and Thornton also turned in ECAC-qualifying times in the 800m as they also qualified for the CC final tomorrow.
In the women's discus throw, sophomore Debra Crockett took fifth spot with a toss of 115-4.
After the second day of the meet, both Muhlenberg teams occupy fourth position in the standings after seven scored events.

I was checking SWFs website and noticed that in 1990 American Eagle flew between SWF and JFK and in 1992 TWA Express flew the route in 1992. Does anyone know how the loads on the flights where? I am sure that the flight was demolished because of Metro North. (train service) So I doubt that there would be a market for lets say Jet Blue from JFK-SWF.

Salvadorans Seek Representation on Los Angeles City Council
Posted By admin On July 26, 2012 @ 11:31 am In Bell Gardens Sun,City of Los Angeles,City Terrace Comet,Commerce Comet,Eastside Sun,ELA Brooklyn Belvedere Comet,General News,Mexican American Sun,Montebello Comet,Monterey Park Comet,Northeast Sun,Vernon Sun,Wyvernwood Chronicle | No Comments
Salvadorans in Los Angeles are not currently represented in political posts in Los Angeles, but that could change this year because several individuals of Salvadorian descent have announced they are running for public office.
"I am launching a campaign to run as candidate for councilwoman of District 9 to help people have better lives and a clean and safe neighborhood where people will want to live and work," Ana Cubas, who works as chief of staff for councilman Jose Huizar of District 14, told Efe.
Lea esta nota EN ESPAÑOL: Candidatos de Descendencia Salvadoreña se Postulan al Concejo de Los Ángeles [1]
Although the official candidate filing deadline for the Los Angeles City Council isn't until November and the election isn't until March 5, 2013, Cubas knows that this is the right time to aspire to join the City Council.
"Jan Perry, an African-American councilwoman has been in charge of this district for 12 straight years and she is now running for Mayor of Los Angeles. Twenty years ago, the majority here [9th Council District] were African-American, but now Latinos make up more than 78 percent and people are used to a female leader, that's why I have a chance to win," she said.
Born in 1970 in the Texistepeque municipality of El Salvador, Cubas immigrated to the Untied States with her parents when she was 10 years old where, thanks to various scholarships, she studied sociology at the University of California Berkeley, and graduated with a masters degree in public administration in 1996 from the University of Pennsylvania in New Jersey.
"From the sociological perspective, the Salvadoran community is already politically mature, we're no longer only thinking about the politics in El Salvador, and we're preparing ourselves to run for publicly elected positions such as council members," Cubas said.
In her opinion, Salvadoran immigrants already have the education and work experience and they consider the United States as their country and they understand that one must "compete for positions of power."
According to the 2010 Census, close to 250,000 people live in 9th City Council District which encompasses South Los Angeles, and where 78.9 percent of the population is Hispanic.
"Unofficially, it is estimated that there are 2.5 million Salvadorans in the U.S., according to the 2010 Census there 1.8 million; in California roughly 900,000; in the county of Los Angeles 350,000; and in the city of Los Angeles 250,000," Francisco Rivera, president of the National Central American Round Table, told Efe.
Ron Góchez, born in Los Angeles to a Salvadoran mother and Mexican father, is another candidate for District 9. Deputy Chief of the Los Angeles Police Department Terry Hara, business advisor Elaine Gaspard, and Assemblyman Michael Davis have also announced they are running for this seat on the City Council.
"Salvadorans have never held a high public office in Los Angeles, but in local politics we've participated for many decades through working for social organizations and protesting for our community's rights," Góchez said.
He thinks that the coincidence that various Salvadorans are running for public office is due to the feeling that they are already "prepared" and that they count on "experience" and are "sophisticated enough to do well politically."
Los Angeles Councilmember Eric Garcetti, who represents the 13th City Council District, is leaving his seat open now that he's announced he is running for Mayor. Reuben Martínez, born in Santa Ana, El Salvador, is one of the aspiring candidates for that seat.
"The Salvadoran community is the third largest Hispanic group in the U.S, the largest concentration being in California and Los Angeles, yet we don't have representation in public office," Martínez, a business man living in the U.S. since the age of 12, told Efe.
"That's why I believe that it is urgent that we understand that we must educate ourselves more because if we only go 'blah blah' in the corner and we don't educate ourselves in schools or universities, then we will accomplish nothing," he concluded.

Koi Nails Did
So my french mani lasted about a day - which is another reason why I'm not a fan of them! They chip soooooo easily!!! So I thought I'd do something a little bit fresh using my friend Nikki's idea of Koi fish. I used Orly Snowcone as a base with a bunch of nail art pens in white, black, orange, red, dark green, and light green. See - two mani's in two days, I must be back in the swing of things :D
My left hand
And as a rare treat, my RIGHT hand! It actually came out pretty well :)

Mais Oui Nails Did
Oooh la la! I'm feeling a bit better lately and my goal this week is to get back into the swing of things and posting regularly again :) Today I thought I'd do something a bit France inspired since I just received my prize winnings from Glammed Up - the Color Club Pardon My French Collection! I'm usually not into pastels and *gasp* a whole lot of glitter...but they do serve a purpose :) I started off with a base of Take Me To Your Chateau which is a pale blue creme and free-handed french tips using a combination of Hot Couture and Si Vous Please. Then I used a black nail art pen to give it a little tuxedo twist and topped my thumb off with a little Eiffel Tower and a rhinestone. Simple but nice I think! I hope you all are enjoying your summer days! Its soooooooooo hot here...but I'd rather this than the snow! :)

Mother of Pearl Nails Did
Well, well. Long time no see! Sorry I've been awol with the posting - my only excuse is that I just haven't been feeling well, so I've been trying to kick whatever I've got and not polishing my nails so much. But today I thought I'd do a quick post before running back to bed. I'm hoping to get back up to posting more regularly again, I just have to start feeling better :)
So I bought this mother of pearl ring in Cuba for 50cents and really just love it., so I thought I'd dupe my mani to make it look just like it...or er, as close as possible LOL.
I started off with OPI's Curry UpDon't Be Late with a layer of Happy Anniversary on top. Then I water marbled Sally Hansen Satin Slip Frost and Mocha Frost with China Glaze White on White. I used black and white nail art pens for the final blotches on top.
I hope everyone is doing well! I'm off to nap again :P What can I say - when I'm sick I'm a huge suck!

Sumo Nails Did
It was around this time last year that I was traveling from Kyoto to Tokyo and buying tickets for my first ever Sumo match. It was AWESOME despite the fact that I had no idea what the commentators were saying! lol. So, because I cant be at another match right now, I thought I'd do them on my nails to relive the memory!
I used OPI Thrill in Brazil for the base and then frankened a skin tone with Thrill in Brazil, Sally Hansen French White, China Glaze Solar Power and Nubar Forest. I used various nail art pens for the rest!
Just a reminder that today is the last day to enter my Birthday Bling giveaway for some goodies! If you'd like to enter

Iron Man Comix Nails Did
Did you see Iron Man yet? I saw it last Friday as a birthday treat with some of my friends. I have actually been waiting all season to see it! And verdict - it was awesome! Although it of course wasn't better than the first ScarJo coulda been left out of it...so useless. Oh and I could hardly understand a WORD Mickey Rourke was saying half the time. But as far as sequels go I was quite happy! And that's saying a lot considering how overly critical I am about comic book movies!
But RDJ? Brilliant. I really don't like him very much, but the minute he plays Tony Stark I pretty much just wanna make out with him.
So I achieved this by sticking on some cutouts I had of an Iron Man comic. Have I mentioned I'm a huge comic book fan? I used to collect them, but stopped going hard core about 4 years ago since I have NO idea what Marvel is doing with their story-lines. Stupid Marvel.
Then I just used a MASSIVE amount of Sally Hansen topcoat to keep it down. The edges like to curl...I think this is a one day wear type of thing. But I'm totally gonna rock these to the next comic-con!!!
EDIT: Comix Nails - not exactly shower proof :S. Oh well, no better time than the present to let my nails breathe! LOL
Green Swoop nails Did
They're green. Remind me of St. Patty's Day at McDonalds.
That's all I have to say about them. Meh.
Base is OPI Jade is the New Black, dark green is Nubar Forest with konad 2030 on top, light green is Nubar Green Tea. White nail art pen.
Double meh.
Ah its been a while since I posted some giveaway stuff...so there's no better time than then present!

I wanted to share with you another of my interweb finds:
StyleCaster is a website that has a whole bunch of up to the minute
fashion industry news
and great beauty tips including how to speed up your
morning beauty routine
and how to make your
beauty regimen eco-friendly
Use their search engine to search for "nails" and there's some really great collections on spring colours, affordable polishes and tips to make your mani last longer - I wish I had that list before I started unpacking tapes in our back room today...can you say mani ruined!?
It also has some great reads on
ladies fashion
and I especially like their "explore looks" option which will pare down some of the latest styles according to what colours you like, style and body shape. Although - the suggestion to wear tights with cut out triangles for my hour-glass frame, maybe not.
And like any good style/beauty tips website it also has some pretty good and informative video's that you can check out. A lot of stuff from NARS experts and things like how to wear purple eye shadow – which I'm totally rocking right now! Purple is where it's at ya'll.
They also are linked to CafePress.ca which makes AWESOME
Custom T-shirts
that are totally addictive. I actually have a couple from there and now that I've started to explore the page I actually want more. The "Push button Receive bacon" one MUST BE MINE!!! It's so brilliant! BAH! Good thing Ben took away my credit cards *sad face*.

Birthday Bling Nails Did + Birthday Giveaway!!
**EDIT: The contest is now closed. Thanks to everyone for entering!!!**
Hello! I wanted to do something non-typical for my birthday. Everyone was telling me to fit on 28 candles but I just thought that was boring, until I thought I'd stick ACTUAL candles on my nails...but I'd probably start a fire.
Oh, here is a birthday story for ya: I think I was about 6 and I was celebrating my birthday with my Dad. He made me a cake that had a LOT of candles and sparklers on it. Now, back in the day my caucasian grandma, who has no idea how to manage hair like mine, used to brush it out so hard I looked like Diana Ross on crack. Now imagine that hair in two "pig tails" (think puffballs) on either side of my head. Anyway, so there I was, excited 6 year old me, with all these fancy candles and what not on my Strawberry Shortcake cake and I was tossing my head back and forth. All of a sudden I see this glint out of the corner of my eye and about 15 seconds later my Dad is screaming and smacking at my head. Thats right, my cake set my hair on fire. Happy Birthday to me.
So this year to celebrate I decided to turn my nails into little birthday disco balls! I started off with China Glaze OMG as the base and then I snagged some craft rhinestones that were in a border shape from the dollar store, cut them separately with a knife then maneuvered them onto my nails with tweezers. After about a gazillion hours later I put on some topcoat which sort of dulled the rhinestones, so I gave them all a coat of Sally Hansen Disco Ball.
Bling Bling!! I kinda love them.
And, what better way to celebrate my 28 years on earth than a giveaway!
From top left: Be! Full of Passion, Savvy Lavender Chrome, Savvy Raspberry, Be! Radiance
From bottom left: Midie Purple Glitter, L.A. Art Deco Striper in Magenta, Hot Pink, Mint Green, Silver, Yellow, Black, Midie Red Glitter

Cinco de Mayo Nails Did
LOL so these nails started out with all the best intentions. They're supposed to be happy cactuses with sombrero's on...but really they kinda look like scary green scarecrows. :S
Ah well the spirit of the season is behind them at least right?? Right?? Ah, well you can't be perfect all of the time! :D
For the base I used China Glaze Solar Power with some orange nail art pens for the tips. For the cactus I used green nail art pens and for the sombrero I frankened Rimmel Torrid with OPI Curry up Don't be Late.
Maybe they look like they have beards? Oh and I apologize for the semi-blurry pics - my camera died after only two photos!
I feel like I'm struggling this week hahahah, I think its just out of pure exhaustion. :P I need to sleep!!
Hope everyone has a shot of tequila for me!

Monopoly Nails Did
Back when I had my 125 followers contest Brooke from
Babbling Brooke
suggested I do Monopoly nails, so I thought I'd give it a shot. Let me tell you - writing with nail polish is HARD. Seriously..especially on my right hand. I think "Boardwalk" came out looking more like "Borrowed", but whatever LOL. The effect is definitely still there :)
Its funny because this is actually one of the games that I despise the most - and only because Ben completely ruined it for me. I've never been that good with personal finances and this game is Ben's chance to exploit that weakness completely. I always end up with Baltic Avenue and he's got 2 hotels on Boardwalk and all the railroads - jerk.
So I used China Glaze For Audrey as the base and then some nail art pens in black, white, blue and red. I also used China Glaze Sexy and the City and Lemon Fizz, L.A. Colors Art Deco in neon purple, and Billy Polish in Burning Hot.
Speaking quickly about giveaways - I will be doing another soon!! I think I'm going to try to wait until I reach 250 followers...although I'm never one to be patient so you never know when it'll pop up!!!

10 Min Mani Nails Did
I thought I would post this quick mani before I go down for my third nap of the day lol. Seriously this cold is kicking my butt!! And sorry since I was in such a rush I did take the pick with my iPhone.
Yesterday Ben's fraternity hosted a spring formal. Since it started at 7:30 and we didn't get home until 6, I had about 1 hour to wash my hair and do a quick mani/pedi. Keep in mind that my hair usually takes about 40 min to wash on it's own! So I literally slapped on some Orly Fantasea with Nubar holographic glitter to about halfway down the nail and then some decals from the dollarstore.
Lol I actually got a lot of compliments on them despite the fact I thought they were so shoddy!!
That would actually make for an interesting contest - the 10 min mani challenge!! Hmm...

text: Seeger out takes 08 January 2003Written by ATG Reporter Another instalment from the holdings of well-known collector Stanley J. Seeger went under the hammer at Sotheby's Olympia rooms on December 13. This 352-lot offering, subtitled Out Takes, was a particularly eclectic selection, ranging from contemporary Venetian glass and tribal art to Middle Eastern pottery and Victorian chaises longues. Leading the price list was a piece of English architect-designed, late 19th century mediaeval revivalist furniture. This marble-topped, green painted wooden pier table, designed by William Burges for the guest bedroom of his own home, Tower House, Melbury Road, Kensington between 1879-80, was sold to a private purchaser for £38,000. The 3ft (93cm) wide marble top assembled by marble cutters Burke and Co. is inset with three late Byzantine opus settile mosaic squares from the floor of Santa Maria in Trastevere, Rome and is encircled by a Latin inscription dated 1880 to that effect. They were probably purchased by Burges on one of his four trips to Rome. Antiques Trade Gazette is the weekly bible of the fine art and antiques industry.

Need help to view images...Please
After a power failure that wiped my old P-1 computer because the UPS batteries were shot (who knew?) I have had to implement another dump score P-1 computer. This is my fastest machine yet at a blistering 333 MHz. What a treat....anyhow I digress. I made some changes while adding a firewall (subscribed to Zonealarm pro) and now I cannot see any of the thumbnail images in the posts here. Posts that have pics served from other locations work fine and are viewable. I have lived with this problem for months now and I'd really like to have image viewing capability again. I am missing soooo much.
I think my problem is associated with my attempts to block banner ads. I undid that change partially but still no pics yet some banner adds appear. When i am viewing ebay pages my display is really screwed up. Most of the boilerplate is little boxes where pics and icons should be. Anyone have any ideas I can try to solve this problem? I suspect it is just a config issue. |

With Zonealarm, it's almost always one of the ad blocking settings. Play around with these and it will almost certainly come good.

Thanx guys. Actually I should have mentioned. Something corrupted my Internet Exploder program and nothing I could do was able to make it work again. I ended up installing Mozilla Firefox and that is working fine but cannot display the thumbnail images in these posts as I explained. I get a text message only where the inage should appear saying to click on it. When I hover over this spot my mouse cursor does not change as it should.
Still need a magic pill. Thanx. |

Hey rcavictim,
Try this... In Mozilla Firefox, click on Tools > Options. Now click on Web Features (to the left) Make sure that "Load Images" is checked. If it is, and you still have problems, click on where it says Exceptions. Now check if this site is in there, with "Block" written beside it. If so, click on "Remove Site". If you can't find it at all, then add it in, and choose "Allow" ( This is starting to clutch at straws, but you might as well try). If none of this helps, then I think it's something other than Firefox doing this, and you'd better ask someone else, LOL. Good luck. |

I agree. I want a computer that works for me, not one where I have to spend hours typing cryptic commands and compiling software before I can do anything.

Overview of content related to 'archives'
This page provides an overview of 14 articles related to 'archives', listing most recently updated content first. Note that filters may be applied to display a sub-set of articles in this category (see FAQs on filtering for usage tips). Select this link to remove all filters.
An archive is a collection of historical records, or the physical place they are located. Archives contain primary source documents that have accumulated over the course of an individual or organization's lifetime, and are kept to show the function of an organization. In general, archives consist of records that have been selected for permanent or long-term preservation on grounds of their enduring cultural, historical, or evidentiary value. Archival records are normally unpublished and almost always unique, unlike books or magazines for which many identical copies exist. This means that archives (the places) are quite distinct from libraries with regard to their functions and organization, although archival collections can often be found within library buildings. (Excerpt from Wikipedia article: Archive)

FacetInfo Class
The FacetInfo object represents facet information. A facet represents a logical dimension of a target object and is used, together with a local expression, to build a condition.
Namespace: Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Dmf
Assembly: Microsoft.SqlServer.Dmf (in Microsoft.SqlServer.Dmf.dll)
[StrongNameIdentityPermissionAttribute(SecurityAction.LinkDemand, PublicKey = "0024000004800000940000000602000000240000525341310004000001000100272736ad6e5f9586bac2d531eabc3acc666c2f8ec879fa94f8f7b0327d2ff2ed523448f83c3d5c5dd2dfc7bc99c5286b2c125117bf5cbe242b9d41750732b2bdffe649c6efb8e5526d526fdd130095ecdb7bf210809c6cdad8824faa9ac0310ac3cba2aa0523567b2dfa7fe250b30facbd62d4ec99b94ac47c7d3b28f1f6e4c8")] public sealed class FacetInfo : IDisposable, IComparable
The FacetInfo type exposes the following members.
Name | Description | |
Description | Gets the descriptions of the facet. | |
DisplayName | Gets the display name of the facet. | |
EvaluationMode | Gets the evaluation mode for the facet. | |
FacetProperties | Gets static information about the properties of the facet. | |
FacetPropertyDescriptors | Gets the descriptors of the facet properties. | |
FacetType | Gets the facet type. | |
Name | Gets the name of the facet. | |
TargetTypes | Represents a collection of Type objects. Each Type object represents a system type on which the facet operates. |
Name | Description | |
Equals | (Inherited from Object.) | |
GetHashCode | (Inherited from Object.) | |
GetTargetProperty | Indicates the target property to get. | |
GetType | (Inherited from Object.) | |
ToString | Renders a string input in the FacetInfo object. (Overrides Object.ToString.) |
Name | Description | |
IComparable.CompareTo | Compares the objects within the FacetInfo. | |
IDisposable.Dispose | Releases all resources used by the FacetInfo class. |
A facet is a logical dimension of a target type with a set of logical properties. An example of a facet on a SQL Server instance target is Database Mail. A target type can implement more than one management facet; and a management facet can be implemented by more than one target type. For example, many instances of SQL Server can have Database Mail installed and one instance of SQL Server can have both Database Mail and as well other facets.
Facets are stored in the FacetRepository which is in the Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Facets namespace.
The state of a target is the description of current characteristics of a target in terms of management facets. The expression used to create a condition specified the state of the target in terms of the facet.

A cusp-shaped reflector accurately focuses sunlight, onto a batch heater's water tank regardless of the direction from which the sunlight is coming. eyes, and point at the horizon. Place your right hand, in a fist, on top of your left hand and "stack" your fists one on top of the other in succession, moving upward, the number of times listed in Table One. Do this three times, following the Table: Once for true south, next for 30 degrees east of south, and last for 30 degrees west of south. Any object you can see above your fists in these directions will cast a shadow on your collectors; any object below your fists in these directions is of no concern. Energy Efficiency A batch heater will work on almost any home, but will work best on a home with an efficient standard water heating system. To put it another way, it really makes no sense to invest in a solar water heater if the rest of your home's plumbing merely throws away most of the delivered energy. "Most" isn't an exaggeration. The waste in standard systems is incredible. In one of our test homes, for example, we performed a simple, basic energy-efficiency retrofit of the existing standard water heating system. The entire retrofit took less than eight hours, and cost just $80. We turned down the water heater thermostat from 150 Degrees F. to 120 Degrees F., insulated the water heater tank and hot water pipes, installed an automatic timer on the tank's electric heating elements, and put on flow-restricting shower heads and faucet aerators throughout the house. When we were done, the energy used for water heating dropped by an incredible 50 per cent, saving the family over 3,600 kwh of electricity each year, worth $218 at local
