Its a strange thing but the comments box at the bottom of a website page often offers some of the most incisive comments that you can find. I don't know about you but it's often the first thing I look at after perusing a page about a product or service. Sometimes there are a few iffy comments in there but, generally speaking, you can find out tips and recommendations and it's a really good way for developers to find out what their visitors are really thinking.

It's hard sometimes for small business to take the next step towards the better organization of their business management.

This easy to use and unique project management application was designed specifically to help small business become more productive by organizing all your projects, tasks, leads and stock more efficiently.

The world is not a very happy place right now. Just look at the news. There's trouble in the Middle East and Europe, and Africa is a minefield just waiting to explode. The fact is, as individuals, we can't really have much control over what's happening in the word. We can have some control in our own individual happiness, however. MyHappiness is a social self-help application for iOS and Android that can be used as a personal happiness trainer as well as a platform to keep a record of your happy times and your not-so-happy times. This fun set of ... Read more
If someone asks you whether you've been 'whese-ing' these days, you might be mistaken into thinking that they were inquiring about your health. However, there's another use of the word that has less to do with the state of your health and more to do with your state of your social selfie. Whese is a new, free photo-sharing application for iOS that throws the word 'whese-ing' into our online vocabulary. This simple to use, real-time app is ideal for the serial selfie taker and allows users to share every moment of their lives with their Whese friends. Add a few ... Read more
There's an old adage that says something along the lines of 'babies don't come with a users manual' but here's an app that goes some way to defying that. iBaby is a new free baby health monitoring application that helps parents keep track of their baby's progress from conception to birth (and beyond.) Starting when you configure and enter your due date, this customizable application will keep you constantly updated as to where things stand and how long it will be until your baby is born. It also delivers week-by-week baby development information and a progress development bar so you ... Read more
The trouble with many 'to-do' applications nowadays is that they are geared either towards business use or designed purely for personal stuff. There's not that much around that covers all of your day-to-day activities. The other problem is that they are often packed with way too many features that you'll never use and are altogether too complicated. Taskify.us is a free, simple and effective organizer that lets you jot down all your daily events - from the moment you jump out of bed to the time you get back under the covers - and tick off your tasks when they ...

It's not easy to come up with an original game concept these days. YIX is a new game for iOS that actually manages to come up with something a little bit different to keep us amused. Well, to be honest, you can't really call this entertaining and very social game truly original because it's origins lie in games like Cards Against Humanity and Apples To Apples but, with it's use of animated GIFs rather than cards, it offers a unique take on a fun and often hilarious piece of entertainment that you can play with family and friends.

It seems to get more and more difficult to find a really good movie these days - especially if your taste runs to more than multi million dollar blockbusters that seem to dominate the multiplexes. There used to be the local DVD store down the road that would always have someone working that knows their stuff but they are few and far between in the digital age. So there needs to be another knowledge base of good films to tap into that ensures that lesser known masterpieces like Donnie Darko and Cloud Atlas don't slip through the cracks. We've seen ...

Veganism is the practice of abstaining from the use of animal-derived products with an associated philosophy that rejects the commodity status of sentient animals. Dietary vegans (or strict vegetarians) refrain from consuming all animal related products. This means meat, fish, chicken, eggs, dairy products and all other animal-derived substances. A trip to the supermarket however, often turns into a nightmare for vegans, because of the often confusing ingredient labeling on many of the items. Vegan Scanner lets you scan the item's barcode with your iOS or Android's camera and get information about the product. As a vegan, when in ... Read more
I'm betting that you, like me, have absolutely no idea that airlines have regulations in force that let you collect compensation for various flying conditions that may interrupt your trip. That's probably because the airlines like to keep it a secret and hide details in the fine print of your contract. The fact is, if your flight is delayed or cancelled or you are denied the right to board for some reason you may be eligible for some form of recompense from the airline involved. This is also true for some baggage related issues including loss or damage. ClaimAir is ... Read more

Operation and performance of horizontal wells for leachate control in a waste landfill
Beaven, R.P., Cox, S.E. and Powrie, W. (2007) Operation and performance of horizontal wells for leachate control in a waste landfill. Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 133, (8), 1040-1047. (doi:10.1061/(ASCE)1090-0241(2007)133:8(1040)).
Full text not available from this repository.
This paper presents data on gas and leachate flow rates and leachate levels obtained during a 600 day pumping trial on three retro-fitted horizontal wells in a domestic waste landfill at Rainham, UK. The changes in gas and leachate flow rate with time and atmospheric pressure, and the interaction between the two flows, are discussed. The spatial variability of the response of the leachate levels within the landfill is explored with reference to the anisotropy and heterogeneity of the permeability of the waste. It is shown that horizontal wells can be an effective means of controlling leachate heads near the base of a landfill, and that leachate levels must be measured using piezometers with a discrete response zone rather than fully screened observation wells if meaningful results are to be obtained. It is argued that the large amounts of gas pumped from the nominally saturated zone of the landfill must have come from the on-going degradation of the waste within the zone of influence of the well.

ADILABAD/KARIMNAGAR/WARANGAL: Notwithstanding the directions of chief minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy, the second phase of Rachabanda programme did not take off in Nizamabad, Karimnagar and Warangal districts in Telangana region on Wednesday.
In Adilabad and some other districts, the collectors organised the programme despite absence of the district and in-charge ministers and distributed social welfare benefits to the poor.
As per schedule, the second phase of Rachabanda programme should be organised in all the districts of the state from November 2 to 30. But the officials of Karimnagar and Warangal have postponed the programme by a week.
The programme is likely to be launched in Nizamabad district on November 4.
It was alleged that the Rachabanda programme was postponed in some districts as the in-charge ministers wanted to avoid confrontation with Telangana activists.In Karimnagar, the officials said the programme was deferred as per the instructions of ministers D Sridhar Babu and M Mukesh Goud. This was due to delay in issuing the eligibility certificates to the disabled. "Without the certificates, we cannot sanction pensions for the physically challenged. Hence, it has been decided to postpone the programme," said DRO Balaji Ranjit Prasad.
The Warangal district authorities postponed the programme citing busy schedule of the ministers. Interestingly, Basavaraju Saraiah who is the district minister of Warangal and in-charge minister of Adilabad, skipped the programme at both the places. While minister Ponnala Lakshmaiah is abroad, in-charge minister DK Aruna was busy participating in the programme in her native district Mahabubnagar.
Similar situation prevailed in Nizamabad as district minister P Sudarshan Reddy and in-charge minister P Sabita Indra Reddy stayed away from the programme forcing officials to postpone it. Both the TDP and TRS cadres have threatened to disrupt the programme. Ironically, Congress legislators and MPs did not participate in the programme in T to ensure its success.
Unlike the first phase which was held in villages, the district officials have decided to organise the second phase in mandal and constituency headquarters.

Antwerp and Brussels, Beligum
Trip Start
Feb 27, 2008
Trip End
May 28, 2008
Where I stayed
We quickly packed our things and headed directly for Brussels. The guide book doesn't comment too much on Brussels. There is very little in the way of museums or historical sites. But the architecture makes a visit worthwhile on it's own. We walked along the streets to the Grand Place. This is the main city square where several elegant buildings and the most luxurious hotel in the city is located. Splitting off of the Grand place are a number of streets lined with caf�s. Any type of food imaginable is available and the high volume of caf�'s causes the owners to stand in the streets and attempt to recruit customers to their specific restaurant. We walked up the hill to the west of the Grand place, We took a quick walk through the large cathedral in the center of the city and then continued to the large park in front of the Royal Palace. The park was beautiful and was made even better by the perfect weather. People were walking their dogs, jogging, or pushing strollers through the paths around the numerous fountains in the park. After strolling through the park we took a look at the Palace. We've seen so many palaces by now that this one didn't seem very special. Tours of the palace were not available so we continued back down the hill to a lovely Greek caf� where we had gyros. The ironic thing is that these gyros were way better than anything that we had in Greece.
In the early evening we hopped a train back to Antwerp. The tour guides say even less about Antwerp than they do about Brussels. They all claim that Antwerp is the biggest fashion capital between Amsterdam and Paris. I didn't want to be the one to tell them that there really isn't anything between Amsterdam and Paris to compare it to. It also says that Antwerp is the diamond capitol of the world. Great, just what I needed, bringing my girlfriend to the diamond capitol. She was the one who made the booking by the way. I just nodded my head and said "yes dear" when she told me we were going to Antwerp instead of Brussels. We walked to the center of the city and sipped some wine in near the old cathedral. Then we walked down to the river and sat by the dock watching the water roll by and enjoyed the view.

Through six weeks into the 2013 regular season, the Kansas City Chiefs are one of two undefeated teams in the league. The last four haven't been pretty for the Houston Texans. These teams meet Sunday afternoon in a match-up between one of the hottest teams in the league and one of the struggling teams in the league.
Behind great defense—the Chiefs rank 2nd overall in limiting their opponents' pass game (190.3 yards) and 1st overall in limiting opponents' scores (10.8 points per game)— Kansas City is perfect at 6-0 with wins over the Jacksonville Jaguars, Dallas Cowboys, Philadelphia Eagles, New York Giants, Tennessee Titans and Oakland Raiders.
Although none of those teams have over 0.500 records going into Week 7, the Chiefs victories have come in convincing fashion except for the 1-point game versus the Cowboys.
Curiously, the Texans are #1 team in pass defense—holding opponents down to 131.3 passing yards per game. Unlike the Chiefs however, they are not able to convert it to success or points. They are ranked 26th overall in scoring with just 17.7 points per game.
To make matters worse for Houston, quarterback Matt Schaub will miss the game against the Chiefs. Although most of Schaub's critics will argue otherwise since Schaub has had struggled before he injured his right ankle and foot with a total of nine interceptions in the six games he has started.
The Texans will go with third-string QB Case Keenum as their starter in Kansas City.

Valve may not be coming out with Portal 2 as planned later this year but fans of both Left 4 Dead games will be getting some new (and free for PC users) DLC expansions on October 5. That's also when the games will finally get the long awaited Mac ports like most of the rest of Valve's game library.
As revealed by PC Gamer's web site and on GameTrailers.com, both Left 4 Dead 1 and 2 will be getting The Sacrifice, a new three level campaign that tells the story of Left 4 Dead 1's original survivors before they meet up with Left 4 Dead 2's cast in the recent DLC The Passing. While The Passing shows us that (spoiler alert) Left 4 Dead 1's Bill is dead, The Sacrifice will allow players to change which character from the Left 4 Dead 1 cast actually bites it.
One of the cool things about Left 4 Dead 1's version of The Sacrifice is that it lets players try out the cool new melee and other weapons from Left 4 Dead 2. Left 4 Dead 2 players will also get Left 4 Dead 1's No Mercy campaign as an extra DLC download. In addition, there will be a massive 150 page online comic that will lead up to The Sacrifice's story that will start in September. It's being drawn by Michael Avon Oeming who is best known for his work on the Powers comic book series. GameTrailers.com revealed that Oeming is now actually on staff at Valve.

Peace Corps Volunteer Alisa Woofter accomplishes goals in Bolivia
Woofter's job turned into being a micro-enterprise consultant. She formed and worked with an artisian group that made and sold the incredibly beautiful ancient art of weaving. She also consulted with people wanting to set up small businesses. The villagers grow crops and tend sheep for their own existence. There isn't much left over to sell for a profit. "We were selling textiles in my community. It was very grass roots, not mechanical, no accounting records," she said. Woofter formed the weavers into an association. They then marketed their textiles in cities and abroad.
Peace Corps Volunteer Alisa Woofter accomplishes goals in Bolivia
Local Peace Corps volunteer accomplishes goals in Bolivia
By Carolyn Lee
The Imperial Republican
The work that Imperial native Alisa Woofter accomplished as a Peace Corps volunteer in Bolivia the past two years may translate into her profession in the future. Woofter returned to the United States this month, and is determining her next steps.
Woofter packed a computer, sleeping bag, solar shower and clothes into her suitcase in August of 2004 and headed down to what she calls the poorest country in South America. At the time, she didn't know if she would be assigned to a city or village.
Her mission was to work to expand tourism. The country is trying to develop tourism, especially hiking and outdoor activities.
She ended up assigned to the village of Cahdelaria, in the Tarabuco region, which is the home of indigenous Inca Indians, who speak some Spanish, but mainly Quechua, the official language of the Inca empire.
The village is dusty and barren, 10,000 feet above sea level in the Andes. Transportation from the nearest city, Sucre, is by a wood-sided truck, shared with many other people.
The trip sometimes takes seven hours, sometimes more if a road is washed out.
Woofter's home was a dorm-sized room without running water. One end was her kitchen/living area, with a small refrigerator and stove, and the other end was a bedroom/closet.
The 2000 Chase County High School graduate said she was lucky in that she was the only person in the village with a flushing, outdoor toilet.
She really didn't feel too deprived, though. She was busy, and everyone else had so little.
Woofter's job turned into being a micro-enterprise consultant. She formed and worked with an artisian group that made and sold the incredibly beautiful ancient art of weaving.
She also consulted with people wanting to set up small businesses. The villagers grow crops and tend sheep for their own existence. There isn't much left over to sell for a profit.
"We were selling textiles in my community. It was very grass roots, not mechanical, no accounting records," she said.
Woofter formed the weavers into an association. They then marketed their textiles in cities and abroad.
Another accomplishment was the construction of a museum in Cahdelaria. It was built to show the history of weaving, plus to sell finished products to tourists.
Each associate had to volunteer 10 days of work on the museum. It was made of adobe.
The museum is only open when a tourist bus comes through the village. "Our community is very small," Woofter noted, "so everyone knows when the tourists are there."
She said it would be pointless to keep the museum open on a set schedule.
The association and museum were two goals Woofter set for herself once she was living in the village.
"It's nearly impossible to set goals before you're there. You need to integrate in the community, identify the needs, establish and accomplish the goals," she said.
Woofter said accomplishing goals may not mean leaving concrete work behind, like a museum. "You can affect someone in the community just by being a role model. There are so many other ways to measure success," she said.
She became very close to her neighbors, Woofter said. Her host family was her family. People always came to her for advice. "I was so incredibly respected. They were looking to me for help. They elevated me." Woofter found that astounding, considering her age and "gringo" status.
She didn't have best friends her own age, "mostly because they can't relate to issues I'm dealing with." She said no one in the community was educated, "so that changes the way you communicate and the relationships you develop."
Although she speaks Spanish at a "comfortable" level, she didn't develop it beyond what she already knew. Some Incas speak a mangled Spanish which Woofter picked up. She also mastered some Quechua phrases.
She knew she was part of the community during an event that she describes as "If my friends and family could see me now."
A NGO, or Non-Government Organization, had built a cement dam at a neighboring village. Every time there is an event like that, or the opening of the textile association's museum, there must be an inauguration ceremony.
Woofter and her fellow villagers bundled into a truck, drove way up high in the Andes, and past the neighboring village to the dam site. Foreign donors attended, murmuring "Who is the gringo?" as Woofter mingled with the crowd.
After the ceremony, big pots of food were cooked outside, with each diner supplying his or her own bowl.
"It got to be dark, time to go back, and the men had been drinking and were pretty drunk," she said. They packed into the truck, along with the band they had brought for the ceremony, and started down the mountain.
When passing the neighboring village, a bunch of villagers decided to climb on the truck and continue celebrating.
"So we were packed like cattle, with everyone in traditional clothing, driving in the middle of the fields. We were stuck in the truck and when we'd hit a bump everyone would fall down."
"When you do stuff like that and feel comfortable, that's integration," Woofter laughed.
She feels that the Peace Corps is going about economic development and promoting peace and cultural understanding in poor countries in the right way, although you always see things you'd like to improve.
"When I've lived there for two years, they see me as a representative of the U.S. The Peace Corps should be doubled or tripled and the world would only be better," she said.
After two years in South America's poorest country, Woofter looks at people differently.
"I would encourage people to travel. It is so important for your children to see other cultures."
She would also encourage communities in the United States to help people feel welcome, whatever their racial background, to respect them for their efforts to make a better life, and to learn from them.
For now, Woofter is searching for a position in International Sustainable Development work, which is hard to locate in the Midwest. That means she'll continue to help communities and countries make small business programs work "on the ground."
She's looking forward to Christmas and a tree, something she's missed. She was overwhelmed at Thanksgiving. "That food could have fed my entire village for awhile," she said.
"It's amazing how easy you get accustomed to the simple things we have here that aren't available there."
Thanks to Woofter, though, the Tarabuco region now has an association that markets its own textiles, and a museum that showcases them for tourists, drawing even more income to the region.

Chris Dodd's Vision for the Peace Corps
Senator Chris Dodd (RPCV Dominican Republic) spoke at the ceremony for this year's Shriver Award and elaborated on issues he raised at Ron Tschetter's hearings. Dodd plans to introduce legislation that may include: setting aside a portion of Peace Corps' budget as seed money for demonstration projects and third goal activities (after adjusting the annual budget upward to accommodate the added expense), more volunteer input into Peace Corps operations, removing medical, healthcare and tax impediments that discourage older volunteers, providing more transparency in the medical screening and appeals process, a more comprehensive health safety net for recently-returned volunteers, and authorizing volunteers to accept, under certain circumstances, private donations to support their development projects. He plans to circulate draft legislation for review to members of the Peace Corps community and welcomes RPCV comments.
He served with honor
One year ago, Staff Sgt. Robert J. Paul (RPCV Kenya) carried on an ongoing dialog on this website on the military and the peace corps and his role as a member of a Civil Affairs Team in Iraq and Afghanistan. We have just received a report that Sargeant Paul has been killed by a car bomb in Kabul. Words cannot express our feeling of loss for this tremendous injury to the entire RPCV community. Most of us didn't know him personally but we knew him from his words. Our thoughts go out to his family and friends. He was one of ours and he served with honor.
Meet Ron Tschetter - Our Next Director
Read our story about Ron Tschetter's confirmation hearing before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee that was carried on C-Span. It was very different from the Vasquez hearings in 2001, very cut and dried with low attendance by the public. Among the highlights, Tschetter intends to make recruitment of baby boomers a priority, there are 20 countries under consideration for future programs, Senator Dodd intends to re-introduce his third goal Peace Corps legislation this session, Tschetter is a great admirer of Senator Coleman's quest for accountability, Dodd thinks management at PC may not put volunteers first, Dodd wants Tschetter to look into problems in medical selection, and Tschetter is not a blogger and knows little about the internet or guidelines for volunteer blogs. Read our recap of the hearings as well as Senator Coleman's statement and Tschetter's statement.
Peace Corps' Screening and Medical Clearance
The purpose of Peace Corps' screening and medical clearance process is to ensure safe accommodation for applicants and minimize undue risk exposure for volunteers to allow PCVS to complete their service without compromising their entry health status. To further these goals, PCOL has obtained a copy of the Peace Corps Screening Guidelines Manual through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and has posted it in the "Peace Corps Library." Applicants and Medical Professionals (especially those who have already served as volunteers) are urged to review the guidelines and leave their comments and suggestions. Then read the story of one RPCV's journey through medical screening and his suggestions for changes to the process.
The Peace Corps is "fashionable" again
The LA Times says that "the Peace Corps is booming again and "It's hard to know exactly what's behind the resurgence." PCOL Comment: Since the founding of the Peace Corps 45 years ago, Americans have answered Kennedy's call: "Ask not what your country can do for you--ask what you can do for your country. My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man." Over 182,000 have served. Another 200,000 have applied and been unable to serve because of lack of Congressional funding. The Peace Corps has never gone out of fashion. It's Congress that hasn't been keeping pace.
PCOL readership increases 100%
Monthly readership on "Peace Corps Online" has increased in the past twelve months to 350,000 visitors - over eleven thousand every day - a 100% increase since this time last year. Thanks again, RPCVs and Friends of the Peace Corps, for making PCOL your source of information for the Peace Corps community. And thanks for supporting the Peace Corps Library and History of the Peace Corps. Stay tuned, the best is yet to come.
History of the Peace Corps
PCOL is proud to announce that Phase One of the "History of the Peace Corps" is now available online. This installment includes over 5,000 pages of primary source documents from the archives of the Peace Corps including every issue of "Peace Corps News," "Peace Corps Times," "Peace Corps Volunteer," "Action Update," and every annual report of the Peace Corps to Congress since 1961. "Ask Not" is an ongoing project. Read how you can help.
By Walter R Poirier (mail.leominster-ma.gov - 184.108.40.206) on Tuesday, March 06, 2007 - 8:17 am: Edit Post |
It has been exactly 6 years today since my son was declared "officially" missing by Peace Corps. Since then it has been a constant battle to insure that he is not forgotten by Peace Corps. Very little communication has been coming out of Peace Corps since the House hearing on Volunteer safety in 2004. It took some arm twisting by the Massachusetts senate delegation and our 5th District congressman to even get Peace Corps to keep Walter on the active list. As of this year, there has been no communication from the new Director regarding our son's status. Come to think of it, there has been no communication from him at all. The Poirier family is still hoping against hope that Walter will be found, but there is little if anything being done by Peace Corps it seems at this time.

No, FX-series processors still aren't out. AMD has however pulled a neat little PR stunt by gathering a handful of overclockers—Sami Mäkinen, Brian Mclachlan, Pete Hardman, and Aaron Schradin—and letting them loose on an eight-core FX-8150 CPU. The overclockers purportedly pushed the chip to a whopping 8.429GHz, breaking a Guinness world record in the process. (AMD claims that, before the event, the world's highest recorded CPU speed was 8.308GHz.)
The chipmaker has posted a video of the action on YouTube, and it's something to behold:
Partway through the process, the overclockers switched from liquid nitrogen to liquid helium in order to reach lower temperatures. Wikipedia tells me liquid helium boils at just 4.2 kelvin, or 4.2°C above absolute zero, compared to 77°K for liquid nitrogen.
Now, from what I can tell, this feat didn't involve stability testing. The overclockers merely reached the record-breaking speed and recorded the result in CPU-Z. (Incidentally, the Hwbot database listing mentions a 3.2GHz base clock speed the FX-8150.) However, AMD notes on its official blog that speeds "well above 5GHz" were achieved "using only air or sub-$100 water cooling solutions." That ought to provide some encouragement to overclockers with more limited means.
Too bad the rest of us will have to keep biding our time until FX-series chips hit stores. AMD says the new processor line won't be out until some time next quarter.
This discussion is now closed.

Climax Solent
Climax was the first and main development division of The Climax Group, with work dating back as far as 1996. The company originally worked under the name Climax and in 1999 the entire office was moved to Fareham. As the company then expanded with more divisions, the name Climax Fareham was soon introduced for all work done at that location.On 1st July 2002, the business relocated to the Gunwharf Quays in Portsmouth and was renamed Climax Solent. The division has been responsible for the development of Sudeki and Serious Sam: Next Encounter, and took over development of Silent Hill: 0rigins in 2007 when Climax LA closed down.
In November 2004, the company became part of the Climax Action brand. By the summer of 2006, the main company stated that it wanted to change Climax into a one location, one studio developer with a single management team and this was achieved by early 2007 when most of the team moved on to the Portsmouth. By January 2008, the Kingston office where Climax London and Climax Handheld Games used to be housed, was closed. Climax Solent then returned to the state it was in almost ten years before: the single operating development division of the Climax Group, but now operating as Climax Action.

Explore Sarawak Southwestern Sarawak Central Sarawak The northern coast The northern interior Share One entertaining aspect of travel in the northern interior is the chance to fly on Twin Otters, 19-seater propeller planes. More formally known as the de Havilland DHC-6, the Twin Otter can turn on the proverbial dime and take off from a standing start in around ten seconds, making it ideally suited to the tiny airfields hereabouts. As such, the plane forms the backbone of the Rural Air Services operated by Malaysia Airlines subsidiary MASwings, mostly out of Miri (though it's not used for Mulu, where the airport can take larger aircraft). As the Twin Otter isn't pressurized – you can see daylight around the door rim – it doesn't fly above 3000m, and affords great views of the north's mountain ranges. That MASwings' Twin Otters are 30 years old and slightly shabby (though perfectly serviceable) only adds to the experience; the cabin will be fan-cooled and the cockpit door may well be open, letting you see what the pilots are up to. On a practical note, passengers sit where they like, and luggage is limited to ten kilos per person (you may well have to weigh yourself at check-in so staff know the laden weight of the plane). At some airfields, departing passengers are slapped with a "service fee" of RM10–15 atop the taxes included in ticket prices. Levied by the small private concerns that run the airfields, these fees appear to be condoned by the authorities. Finally, while flights are seldom cancelled except in very gusty or stormy weather, note that the planes get booked solid during public and school holidays and over Christmas and New Year, when you may have to reserve weeks in advance.

Do these deficits weaken the effectiveness and legitimacy of global policy making? And what can realistically be done to reduce such deficits?
This book provides a comprehensive analysis of major arenas of global decision-making, and evaluates the democratic quality of current efforts to manage global issues. The contributors are Thorsten Benner, David Held, Miles Kahler, Mathias Koenig-Archibugi, Andrew Moravcsik, Patrizia Nanz, Wolfgang Reinicke, Thomas Risse, Jan Aart Scholte, Anne Marie Slaughter, Jens Steffek, Jan Martin Witte and Michael Zürn.

A large put trade is looking for more potential downside in microprocessor company ARM Holdings.
optionMONSTER systems show that a trader bought 19,691 July 37 puts for $0.90 yesterday, above the listed ask price at the time, in volume far above the previous open interest of just 315 contracts. In the following seconds, he or she sold large blocks of June 39 puts, with 8,204 going for $0.65 and another 5,468 for $0.60 against open interest of 13,944 at that strike.
The trader appears to be rolling a long-put position out a month to a lower strike price. Selling the June puts reduces the cost of the July purchase. The new puts, which lock in the price where the stock can be sold no matter how far it might fall, are looking for ARMH to trade below $37 by expiration in mid-July. (See our Education section)
ARMH fell 1.08 percent to $40.13 yesterday, its lowest close in almost two months. Shares climbed above $50 by mid-May along with strong earnings results but have given up those gains, though they are still almost double their price at the lows of last July.
Overall options in the name totaled 42,245 contracts yesterday, compared to a daily average of 3,326.

It's a brand new year, and the sun is high, and all the birds are singing that you're gonna die (wait, sorry, wrong reference). 2013 is upon us and so we're all gearing up for a more productive version of us this year, especially when it comes to writing. "This year," you tell yourself, "is the year I'll finally get out of my pajamas and write that damn book. The book that will change humankind for the better. The book that will oh look a squirrel!" Using the SMART method when setting your writing goals, you're better equipped to stay on track and know when you succeed. This method will make your goals Specific, Measureable, Achievable, Relevant and Time-bound.
Saying "I'm going to write a novel" is admirable, but it's a bit vague. Narrow is down a bit. How long do you plan on making the novel? In which genre are you writing? Something like "I'm going to research, write and edit an 80,000 word epic fantasy novel and have it suitable for submission"
So you know where you need to be, but how do you get there? How do you know if you haven't hit a snag along the way, or if you've gone way off course? How will you know if you've reached your target, and how will you know you're on the right track? Making your goals measurable sorts this out. Think of them as the achievements you get on the way to completing the main quest:
"I will complete researching my novel by April 1st. I will complete the first draft of the MS by October 1st (averaging roughly 500 words per day) and have edited the novel by January 1st 2014".
This is an important one. Can you actually achieve what you set out? Writing a novel in a year from scratch might sound good in your head, but with working lives, family commitments and everything else that gets thrown at you, are you able to knuckle down and do what you set out? If not, change your goal. It's better to succeed at a small goal than to fail at a big one.
The answer to this one will almost always be "yes". If you're writing a novel, chances are it'll be very relevant to you because you're the one writing it. Saying that, take some time to ask yourself why you're writing. If you want to write a book purely because you want to be a famous author with all the sex, drugs and rock 'n roll that goes with it, and you have no story or itch to back it up, then your goal isn't relevant to you.
Most novels never see the light of day because they fall into the ether, never to be completed or seen again. Making your goals Time-bound gives you set deadlines by which you need to complete your goal. In this case, the entire novel will be completed and ready for submission by January 1st, 2014. The planning, writing and editing stages also have their own deadlines, and if you can break it down into smaller deadlines again, all the better.
So by making your goals SMART, you've now gone from,
"I'm going to write a novel!" (reaction: "yeah, sure you will. I'll believe that when I see it.")
"By January 1st 2014 I will plan, write and edit an 80,000 word epic fantasy novel that will be suitable to submission to agents. Planning will be completed by April 1st, the first draft of the manuscript will be completed by October 1st (averaging 500 words per day) and final edits will be completed by January 1st 2014" (reaction: "wow, that sounds great! I can't wait to read it!"
Whilst this w
ill all help to add structure to your writing goals, don't let it constrain you too much. If you let your rigid goals stifle your creativity, then it's not going to work out for you. Make sure you still have some freedom to write the story you want to tell, but use these SMART goals to help you on the road to publication.
What are your writing goals this year?

- Gold Premo! Sculpey polymer clay
- Black Premo! Sculpey polymer clay
- Jacquard Piñata inks in variety of colors
- Jacquard Pearl Ex - Aztec Gold
- Spray mist bottle with water
- Speedball Speedy Stamp carving block
- Carving tool
- Plastic palette tool
- Liquid Sculpey
- Clay blade
- Glass or plastic sheet for palette
- 2" 19g. gold wire
- Envirotex Lite two-part epoxy resin
- Rubber cording and closure findings
- Gold accent bead
- Carve a variety of doodle patterns in the rubber stamp. Drawing with a pencil first can help you plan the space. Carve lines about 1/16th of an inch deep.
- Mist the stamp surface with a spray of water. Roll about 1/4 of a block of gold clay into a sheet 1/16" thick. Press the clay onto the stamp, pressing firmly over the entire surface.
- Trim the sheet to a pleasing shape, being mindful of the composition created by the changing areas of pattern.
- Dust the surface thoroughly with Aztec Gold Pearl Ex powder. Bake the sheet according to the manufacterer's recommendations on the clay package.
- While the clay is baking, squeeze several nickel-sized pools of Liquid Sculpey onto the palette. Tint each with one-two drops of Piñata ink. Stir with plastic palette knife. These colors can also be blended and mixed to create intermediate shades.
- When the clay is cool, drizzle colors into the various pattern areas on the surface. Try blending colors and adding tiny amounts of contrast colors into some areas. Bake the clay for 10 minutes or cure the Liquid Sculpey surface with an embossing heat tool.
- Press additional clay to the back of the pendant shape and bevel the edges to create a rounded back. This clay can be scrap clay or any color.
- Roll a sheet of black clay 1/16" thick and slightly larger than the pendant. Press the black to the back and wrap smoothly to the front.
- Trim the excess clay from the front even with the plane of the surface. Bake the pendant again.
- Finish with a coating of epoxy resin, following package directions carefully. After the finish has cured, drill a 1/2" deep hole in the top and glue in a hangman's loop eyepin and accent bead. String on black rubber or satin cord.

Work in Beauty had a wonderful event with Brad Lancaster, the Rainwater Harvesting Expert. After a presentation in Room 200, with the screen working and Darell right there making sure all the technology was in perfect order, and Frank managing all the cords to our hotplates, we made a tour of the campus and heard some wonderful ideas that could really help the University landscaping. There are quite a few places where runoff can be directed back into the planted areas. Brad even warned that without some earthwork the access roads to UNM-G could be undermined. Work In Beauty is grateful for the community and to Brad Lancaster for making this event a success. Visit Brad's website HERE, and check out our blog to get familiar with his work |

This is to Christian Dior what Opium is to YSL - totally classic and nostalgia inducing. I love the smell although it's more of a winter smell. I would love to wear this again if I moved to a colder climate.

I love this for nostalgic reasons. My mother always had a mini bottle of this lying around the house and I'd always give it a little sniff now and then. So of course it reminds me of everything 80s and my childhood. I've tested many 80s fragrances lately and compared to those (and a lot of them smell the same) its different and not as dated or as typical of the decade. But you'd have to very brave indeed to wear this nowadays. Its pungent and in your face, I can't even describe the notes as it hits your senses to strongly to make anything out.

OK, am new to this one and being a child of the 80s with a "made in USSR" birthday stamp, I probably got an accidental sniff or 2 of this stuff back then, because it does awaken a memory, a memory of being small and everything around - veery big. And the smell of Poison - even bigger. I waited out until I could get esprit de parfum at a bargain price off ebay ( since pure perfume is imho what a scent is actually meant to be ), and here we are, two 5ml dark purple bottles with glasstops sitting on my dresser, and I was almost calling my hubby to come and be on standby while I test it in case it levels me with the ground as soon as the first poison molecule pops out! What can I say, it is heavy artillery, but all complex scents are, so 3 golden rules for those, who want to learn to help it develop into a heavenly elixir instead of having a bulldozer effect on anything with a heartbeat in a kilometer's radius: 1) 2 DABS for dry skin, 1 DAB for oily like mine: then WALK AWAY from the bottle! 2) APPLY 30 MINS - AT LEAST!- BEFORE enetering an inhabited environment. 3) Apply on the hidden UNDER THE CLOTHES skin, not necesserily too far away - like the bottom of your cleavage for instance, or on the top "knuckle" of your spine just below the dressline. When these rules are observed, POISON will reward you in a most amazing way! The headache-inducing qualities dissipate after about half an hour, for some - after a full hour, and then the magic happens. This perfume needs to be applied in such small doses not even because it is so strong - it just has the expanding multifold effect and it needs you to give it a vast room to do so, and then, like a smoke cloud after an explosion, after booming out, it gathers itself again and then sits tight around you, but not too tight, so when you walk, a whiff of it will still reach the chosen target. :) I cannot imagine what a post-chemical war effect this scent could have if one - GOD FORBID!! - sprays it! When done right, this is a femme fatal perfume, incredibly alluring and it doesn't loosen its grip once it catches attention. A very powerful weapon in knowing hands. I will use it purely for seduction: the best scent for the task.

Sampled this in the store. Very creamy, chill, vanilla scent. Absolutely delicious! My favorite of the poisons,

This perfume lasts on you like no other (I've ever tried), be it Chanel's Chance or the other Diors (even in its EDT version). Good value also for this reason: no need to reapply like other equally expensive ones. Got it as a gift recently and wearing it (over again) happily. I don't think that "fashion" or "tendencies" apply to something as personal as a perfume. Good scents are immortal. Strong stuff, use it carefully.

Upon smelling this again I was reminded of the 80s. The only words I can use to sum this up is "nostagically revolting". It's an attention seeking mess of a scent.

I love this perfume. at first I wasn't so sure because it's not a sweet scent like I typically prefer even when I like a spicey scent I lean towards a sweet note but this is a very respectable scent. It feels light, only need one spray. It is very mysterious and feminine but powerful and alluring somehow. Anyways I love it and I think it's a good scent in a pretty bottle.
Age: 36-43
Skin: Combination, Medium, Warm

One of the original 80's powerhouse fragrances. And by Powerhouse I mean knock you over where you stand perfume... This stuff is strong. As strong if not more than Giorgio. My 8th grade teacher wore this. Some things from the 80's need to stay in the 80's mainly this and shoulder pads...
Age: 36-43
Skin: Sensitive, Fair, Warm
Hair: Blond, Kinky, Fine
Eyes: Green
Poison is my absolute first "real" perfume. It was a gift to me from my first boyfriend as a teenager. I loved it immediately and wore it as my signature scent for about 5 or 6 years. I think Poison is a lovely scent, but in small doses. It is very unique, with a deep plum/wine mysterious feeling about it. I would describe it as a slightly spicy scent. However, it does also have floral and sweet undertones to it. The dry down is gorgeous.
Top notes: Coriander, pimento, plum, anise, mace, rosewood, carnation
Heart notes: Rose, tuberose, ylang-ylang, carnation, cinnamon, jasmine, lily of the valley Base notes: Cedar wood, vetiver, sandalwood, musk, heliotrope, vanilla, opoponax
I can see how it wouldn't be something everybody likes, but it is one fragrance I will always have in my collection. For a modern day comparison I think Euphoria by Calvin Klein is "slightly" comparable to Poison, but honestly Poison is really in a league of its own. I now wear it (sparingly) at night or on cooler days. Sometimes when I'm just at home, I spray a bit on for the nostalgic, cosy feeling it gives me.... yum!!

CHART: Diversity in Medical School Graduation Rates 1979-2011
June 24, 2014 | 6:00 a.m. CDT
Survey statistics in the Diversity in Medical Education report from the Association of American Medical Colleges shows the overall number of white students graduating from medical school has fallen since 1980, but they still outnumber the closest minority by almost 3 to 1. Asians have seen a rise in graduation rates while African Americans, Latinos/Hispanics and Native Americans have remained relatively flat. The chief diversity officer of the Association of American Medical Colleges said the best way to increase diversity is to focus on strengthening K-12 public education in the United States, particularly in rural and urban areas.

I can't believe that it's been over three months since my early January departure for Sri Lanka to cover a story about post-war peacebuilding for the Asia Foundation . That assignment, followed by other NGO jobs, and my work leading 2 back-to-back photo tours in Thailand, Laos and Cambodia as well as a new photo tour to Vietnam, has kept me pretty busy.
I'll be home for a while, catching up on correspondence, re-supplying, recharging and enjoying the comforts and conveniences of San Diego.
It's always nice to come back and see some of the mail that has accumulated, including publications that have come in, from clients who have used some of the images that I shot for them.(below EductionDevelopmentCenter's use of an image I shot for them in East Timor)
It's also my opportunity to catch up on reading and get inspired...mostly by my magazine subscriptions including NPPA and National Geographic.
Once I dig out from under tons of correspondence and catch up on phone calls, I'll have a surprise announcement for you gear-heads, so please stay tuned, and as always, thanks for following the blog.
Cheers, Karl

I had several people send me this video and I did NOT want to watch it because I knew it would make me cry. And it did. But I think it's important to know that dogs are used for product testing and these are dogs that had never lived outside of a kennel - in fact they have never been outside. Grab a Kleenex!

As a result of the new EPA livestock rules for animal feeding operations, there has been an increase in the need for engineering design services within the livestock production sector of agriculture. The 2002 Farm Bill provided the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) with monies to be used for the design and construction of livestock waste facilities. Due to the increased workload from the new EPA livestock rules, the SD NRCS conducted a national search for engineering assistance from private engineering consultants.
Eisenbraun & Associates was awarded a 5-year contract with the SD NRCS to perform engineering design and construction administration services for livestock facilities in South Dakota. Professional services under this contract include preliminary site assessments and conceptual layouts, development of nutrient management plans, final design plans and specifications, construction staking and construction administration. Projects under this 5-year contract have included cattle feedlots and dairy facilities of various sizes. Pictured on this page is a member of an E/A survey crew completing slope staking at one such NRCS project site.
Eisenbraun & Associates was also awarded similar 5-year contracts with the Iowa and Minnesota NRCS.

Betty Ostergren
Betty Ostergren is a privacy advocate in Virginia. Ostergren campaigns for the protection of citizens from having their personally identifying information available on the internet. Her website, The Virginia Watchdog "was founded to educate the unknowing public as to how their government is putting - and has put them - at risk and has a First Amendment right of freedom of speech and freedom of the press to do so."[1]
Public/Private Information Lawsuit
Ostergren combined forces with the American Civil Liberties Union to file a federal suit to stop the publication of identifying information of private citizens on the internet.[2] Kent Willis, executive director of the Virginia ACLU chapter, has this to say about the case: "The government can't put the numbers online and then turn around and prevent the public from using those numbers. This is a grossly misplaced bill that attempts to mask the fact that Virginia's lawmakers have failed to prevent Social Security numbers from being placed online in the first place."[3]
Judge Robert E. Payne will be issuing a ruling on the case, but he says that it won't be an easy case to decide. "This case presents some new questions and some hard questions."[4]
On August 23, Judge Payne ruled that Ostergren's right to post public information on the internet is protected by the Constitution. Ostergren "claimed in her lawsuit that government can't publish the information and then punish citizens for distributing it. Payne agreed, saying Ostergren's activities were protected by the First Amendment."[5]

These reviews are the opinion of an RVParkReviews' member and not the views of RVParkReviews.com
Date of Stay: August, 2013 - $13.00
Stayed here for a few months, rate reflects monthly rate. It does include electric. Staff is great, but campground needs help. Cabins are drab brown, roads need to be better maintained as there are big holes that can require you to have a front end alignment done, Roads are dusty and a lot of shuttles coming through at high rates of speed, Monday through Friday and a few Saturdays there is a motorcycle that leaves around 5:50am that wakes you up. No security to speak of when special events are going on in the town. There are port a potty's in the tent area and the person that cleans them and pumps them out flies through the campground stirring up dust. Because of the dust the AC units pull this into the rigs leaving a film over everything. All traffic causes dust. We will not return. Again the staff was great and did everything that they could do to help. The campground needs to be upgraded badly and it would be a super place. We camped at Riverside Resort in a Fifth Wheel.
Date of Stay: July, 2013 - $30.00
Some of the turns were tight, and gravel roads had some potholes. Buildings were old and tired but clean. I would stay again Good Sam should have rated 6/5/6. We camped at Riverside Resort in a Motorhome.
Date of Stay: October, 2011 - $18.00
Rate reflects Passport America. This is our third time staying at Riverside, and we have enjoyed it each time. This time we had a back-in site that was shaded by one of the large live oaks. We did some laundry, and machine prices we very reasonable. Bathrooms are not great but adequate and could use some updating. One potential problem we see is that there is a building just outside of the park that is being renovated, and it will be a "biker" bar. We don't have any problem with bikers, but the noise from the bar might become a problem. We will stay here again. We camped at Riverside Resort in a Fifth Wheel.
Date of Stay: April, 2011 - $105.00
My family stayed here over the Easter weekend and we had such a wonderful time. We will be back this summer when the kids are on vacation. They have a pool, sand volley ball court and clean bath houses. Shuttle services available to the Guadalupe river and surrounding music venues. Thank you Riverside Resort!!!

Shiatsu TherapyRelated links: Our Therapists | Massage Therapy | Indie Head Massage | Hot Stone | Reiki Shiatsu Therapy | How is Shiatsu different from Massage | Benefits What is Shiatsu (Acupressure) Therapy?Shiatsu is a Japanese healing therapy that was developed as a combination of Chinese Massage called Anma, key aspects of traditional Chinese Medicine and the theory of Shizuto Masunaga. The word Shiatsu can be translated as "finger pressure". During a session the therapist applies comfortable, sustained pressure to various parts of the body in order to help life energy or "chi/qi" flow properly. Qi flows along pathways referred to as Meridian lines. The therapist works on a Meridian line to improve blood flow, muscle tonus and posture. Shiatsu is applied using the thumbs, fingers, palms, forearms and elbows. The goal of Shiatsu is to trigger the body's own natural healing powers to help restore vitality and prevent disease by harmonizing the body, mind and spirit. How is Shiatsu therapy different from massage?The main differences are the theories they are based on. Shiatsu is based primarily on Traditional Chinese Medicine and Masunaga Theory. This means that energy pathways will be balanced, locally and distally, rather than certain muscles being massaged. Massage is based on theories which fall into three categories, Circulatory, Mechanical and Energetic. With Shiatsu, the client remains fully clothed during treatment and no oils or lotions are used. Each Shiatsu session includes gentle stretching of the Meridians both before and afterwards to entice the proper flow of energy. This could include providing the client with stretches to do at home on a regular basis. What can I expect from my Shiatsu treatment?Shiatsu and other Oriental therapies, like acupuncture, have very unique ways of looking at the body. In Shiatsu we do not diagnose a person but rather the signs and symptoms of disease along with observations, medical history and what is felt in the body during a treatment. The findings are used to understand the personalized pattern of how the condition came to be. The Zen Shiatsu theory is that every organ in the body has an energy pathway that runs along the torso, arms and legs. This gives the advantage of helping any local discomfort as well as balancing the energy of specific organs distally. Remember that you remain fully clothed, so come prepared with comfortable, loose clothing. Your therapist will communicate with you at all times to ensure the pressure is comfortable for you. What issues/problems can Shiatsu Therapy help treat?

History of the Court
Previous Judges of Probate (and Presiding Judges of County Court)
Major Areas of Responsibility
The major areas of responsibility of the Mobile County Judge of Probate are as follows:
Additionally, the Judge of Probate serves on other governmental boards, most notably the Supervisory Committee of the Mobile County Personnel Board.
Because of the nature of the judicial matters assigned to the Judge of Probate in the Alabama legal system, Alabama probate courts are commonly referred to as the "Solomonic Court." In recognition of this distinction, a wood carving depicting King Solomon graces the Mobile County Probate Court's main courtroom.
