Buoyed by surging demand, Ikea to expand globally
Wednesday - 1/23/2013, 12:24pm EST
STOCKHOLM (AP) - Ikea says it plans to open 25 new outlets and recruit 75,000 more workers overall by 2020, as its global market share last year increased with annual net profit growing 8 percent to (EURO)3.2 billion ($4.3 billion).
The world's largest furniture retailer on Wednesday reported revenue of (EURO)27.5 billion for the 2012 fiscal year, up from (EURO)26 billion a year earlier. The company does not release quarterly figures.
Ikea Group CEO Mikael Ohlsson said most growth last year was in China, Russia and Poland, closely followed by the United States and Germany.
Ikea said it had "continued lowering prices for customers and further improved product quality."
The Sweden-based company has 338 stores employing some 154,000 people in more than 40 countries. The new outlets will mainly be in Asia.

Disgusting. I don't live near a dental school and I can't afford local dentists. We're talking maybe $20,000 worth here in the states. I couln't work for years and had to let it go. Now my dental insurance covers maybe $100 for a year.
Before I die, I would like to smile again but it doesn't seem real hopeful.

what state, there are publicly funded programs to help you. Let me know, I might just be able to help you.
I don't like my smile either. I never show my teeth even when I smile. It definitely hold me back. I understand how you feel. It's too expensive to get them fixed at the moment.

I want to open the selecteditemtemplate of the current item created in listview control.

If the newly inserted item is at the bottom of the table, you can set the selectedindex of ListView to the last one. If you have paging, you can turn to the last page. If the newly inserted item is random, you can loop the datakey of each item to find the index of the selected one in the ListView. And set its SelectedIndex for ListView.

That would be fine. but......
Have you got a sample that shows how to select the last paged record selecteditemtemplate after the new record has been inserted.

Mar 02, 2012 02:41 AM|Qin Dian Tang - MSFT|LINK
It is easy. You can get the info from the datapager control:
DataPager1.TotalRowCount/DataPager1.PageSize will be the last page index, then turn to that page and set the last one as selected.

I had a hard time finding a hat to fit my little one but this fits perfectly and even allows for further cinching in the back if needed. The only reason I have it 4 is because I haven't actually gotten the chance to use it. I've heard great things from others and have no doubts that it deserves 5 stars!

Waikiki, Oahu
My Rating
We had a lovely time on this tour. Matteus was a great host, full of lots of information, courteous and fun. The tour wasn't too strenuous for us but was definitely interesting and relaxing. Lunch was tasty and more than adequate. I would highly recommend this tour not only for the great time on the water but to see more of the Island than your usual tourist stuff. Thanks for the great beach tip, Matteus. It was as good as you said!

Syringe allowed chemists to unmask THG
Updated: August 23, 2004, 4:24 PM ETAssociated Press
ATHENS, Greece -- A mystery at the center of track and field's biggest doping scandal has finally been solved.
Top track coach Trevor Graham has admitted he was the coach who anonymously sent a syringe of THG to the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency, a key piece of evidence in the BALCO case that helped lead to suspensions and possible lifetime bans against several athletes.
"I was just a coach doing the right thing at the time," Graham
said after one of his star pupils, Justin Gatlin, won the ...

1.0-7167 for Linux x86 released

Re: 1.0-7167 for Linux x86 released
Hoi all!
Just installed 7167, and it still doesnt solve my problem, so I decided I finally register here, and ask help :>
So my problem is the following:
- with nvidia driver 5336 + 2.4.x kernel, quake3 ran fine.
- with 5336+ drivers under 2.4.x, quake3 was flickery.
- under 2.6.10, i can only install drivers 6629 or greater, and quake3 is flickery.
So either something is bad on my side, or nvidia made an extension that fcks up my system.
I've an 1.1 Ghz cpu and a Gef2 MX 400 [leet, yea :] . Still, quake3 is flickery and glxgears results EXTREMLY BAD results:
60 frames in 5.0 seconds = 12.000 FPS
71 frames in 5.0 seconds = 14.200 FPS
76 frames in 5.0 seconds = 15.200 FPS
64 frames in 5.0 seconds = 12.800 FPS
68 frames in 5.0 seconds = 13.600 FPS
... So what can be the problem? Driver is configured well in my opinion. xfree86 log shows the driver being loaded. libgl.so.1 and other files point to the good drivers. Quake3's "driver info" shows that it uses GLX, and it uses the nvidia driver... nvidia-settings show that glx and opengl is working . 4x AGP is enabled ... I'm out of ideas...
Any help is appreciated!

Watch out "Jedi bitches." The Dark Side has never been sexier.
Nerdist is out with a new Star Wars parody of the hit song by Meghan Trainor, "All About That Bass" featuring Team Unicorn, Darth Vader cheerleading outfits and dancing storm troopers.
What more could you want, besides maybe a Jedi response via Nicki Minaj's "Anaconda?"
Last year Pharrell even teamed up with Hatsune Miku with this remix:
Who knew Pharrell was so into anime and lolis?
He's blond. He's skinny. He's rich. And he's a little bit of a b**ch.

Population models. A) Model 1: a simple divergence model, with two sub-populations that have constant sizes (N1 and N2). Migration occur after divergence event (at time T) with rate m12 and m21; B), model 2: a divergence model with exponential growth. After the divergence time T, two sub-populations (of size N1' and N2') grow with exponential rates α1 and α2, and the population sizes at present are N1 and N2. There is no migration between the sub-populations; C) model 3: Composite model of model 1 and model 2. The same as model 2, but with migration occurring at rate m12 and m21 after divergence time.

Targeting criteria for controls and collection of customs and police information
More integrated use of customs and police information for efficient planning of law enforcement measures in combating drug trafficking.
Joint Action 97/372/JHA of 9 June 1997 adopted by the Council on the basis of Article K.3 of the Treaty on European Union, for the refining of targeting criteria, selection methods, etc., and collection of customs and police information [Official Journal L 159 of 17.6.1997].
Member States' customs authorities must strive to optimise the use of targeting criteria and structured selection methods, and the collection of customs and police information on the combating of drug trafficking. For this purpose they must take the measures set out at points 2 to 8, within existing judicial and practical possibilities.
Member States' customs authorities should make more intensive use of information available from all business sectors concerned, notably the transport sector.
They should step up the mutual exchange of intelligence and information for the purpose of risk analysis by making greater use of the CIS (customs information system) electronic mailbox system, pending the operational development of the CIS database.
They should make greater use of all available European customs information systems regarding sea-, air-, land traffic and others (e. g. AIR-Info, BALKAN-Info, CARGO-Info, MAR-Info, YACHT-Info).
They should improve targeting procedures by organising international joint customs surveillance operations, as provided for in the revised arrangements on this area approved by the Council of 29 November 1996. Participation in such operations by third countries should be encouraged, where appropriate.
Member States' customs, police and other law enforcement authorities should, as far as possible, intensify mutual exchanges of available intelligence and information. This should apply at national, European Union and international level and also include European Union and international institutions.
Member States' law enforcement authorities should, where appropriate, analyse the intelligence and information available.
Member States' customs authorities should draw up guidelines for best practice to encourage greater use of risk analysis techniques.

You're probably better off waiting for the Mac version anyway considering all the issues that have been reported with SimCity.

Honestly, I want to play with myself, gosh that sounds worse than it is. I like SimCity for the SinglePlayer aspects, if I wanted multiplayer, I'd play SimCity 2000 Network Edition.
Posted 28 March 2013 - 19:07
They are fixing the game slowly but I would still give them a little more time (despite a few people having fun playing the game). The biggest issue at the moment actually seems to be rollbacks and vanishing cities

Thats also because the sims 3 dvd's shipped with as both windows and mac on one disk, and the download origin grabs is actually the cd image.
I have read that you won't have to pay again to play it on OS X.
I also found that with the Sims 3 attached to my Origin account, I can install and play it on both Windows and OS X without paying extra.
Edit: looking for a solid source about that but I can't find anything despite it being a common question. Even the EA customer service can't give consistent answers.
Edit edit: I found this: http://answers.ea.co...the/td-p/625216

Q: How will users purchase the Mac version?
A: SimCity for Mac will be available as a digital download via Origin. It will be available for pre-purchase on Origin starting April 10th, 2013. If players have already purchased the PC version of the game, then they will receive the Mac version automatically on June 11, with no additional purchase needed.

And here you see my problem, nobody seams to know the correct answer, not even EA. The EA Rep I spoke to Yesterday wasn't even aware that they were releasing a Mac version. Not that he was all that bright honestly.
Posted 10 April 2013 - 15:15
I wouldn't really call it a 'find' since they announced it on the SimCity Facebook page just now, but you all obviously wanted to know so
Booom!!! SHAKALAKA! Nice find!
Can't wait to be able to remove my Windows Partition again on the 11th, hopefully Maxis properly support the Mac Trackpads with gestures etc.

2012 UW-Parkside Jump book for First Year Students
First Year students will receive this booklet at ROAR. This booklet has been designed to prepare students for their academic and social journey at UW-Parkside. This will help them have a successful transition and become a RANGER!
Start Your College Experience 2012-2013 P. 2 2012�2013 All new incoming first year students are invited to read and discuss the book Outcasts United. Ranger Read participants read the book over the summer and have the opportunity to begin discussing the book online and continue the discussion at Ranger Welcome. Outcasts United by Warren St. John is the story of a refugee soccer team, a remarkable woman coach and a small southern town turned upside down by the process of refugee resettlement. Ranger Read builds community in our incoming class of students by providing a shared experience, shared language, and a basis for deep, meaningful conversations. Reflecting about a book in this way places academic engagement--teaching and learning--at the very center of the community we are asking students to join. And it allows all of us to think, talk, and learn together across and beyond the boundaries of any single classroom. "An uplifting tale celebrating the most old-fashioned of virtues: hard work, self-discipline, regard for others." --The Washington Post To sign up for Ranger Read, pick up a flyer TODAY from your ROAR Leader, fill out the form and you will get your own copy of Outcasts United at the end of the day at the Ranger Read table at the Information Fair. You may also go to the website www.uwp.edu, Keyword: FYE. Click on the Ranger Read icon and fill out the form online. You will then be able to pick up the book any time this summer from First Year Experience, D105F in the Student Center. Activities for group discussion, creative projects and learning about refugees in Wisconsin will be planned in the future. Be a part of Ranger Read.

First, students will have acquired a knowledge and skill set that is used across all academic disciplines. Second, it will make students aware that knowledge is diverse, and it will make them conversant with the principles and methodologies of disciplines across the spectrum of knowledge. Therefore, all University of Wisconsin-Parkside graduates must have 1. achieved competency in the following areas: A: Communication - Literacy - reading for understanding and writing for effective communication - Oral communication - listening, speaking and presenting effectively - Information technology competence - using modern information technology to retrieve and transmit information - Creative expression - communicating through artistic statement B: Reasoned Judgment - Critical thinking - applying logic and reasoning to problem solving - Ethical thinking - recognizing and analyzing ethical issues and actions - Scientific thinking - understanding and applying the scientific method - Analytical skills - understanding how to produce and interpret quantitative and qualitative information - Aesthetic skills - critiquing and appreciating the fine arts (literary, visual, and performing) C: Social and Personal Responsibility - Individual accountability - understanding what a responsible choice is and that one's present education and life-long learning is a personal responsibility - Social Equality - understanding and questioning the social, political, economic and historical conditions that construct diversity and inequality Civic engagement - learning to use knowledge and skills to contribute to the community - Global perspective - acquiring the knowledge and skills that provide an understanding of international/global issues and processes - Teamwork - working effectively with others for a common goal These competencies cannot be "taught" in a handful of required courses, nor should students view these competencies as disconnected from their major. These abilities are gained and maintained with practice across the array of academic disciplines. Toward this end, it is expected that in each BOK class students will practice and refine a subset of these foundational competencies. 2. demonstrated competency in each of three broad areas: Humanities and the Arts, Social and Behavioral Science, and Natural Science Jump Start Your College Experience 2012�2013 DEGREE REQUIRMENTS DEGREE REQUIREMENTS So here's the deal: Students need 120 credits to graduate.

TYPICAL FRESHMAN SCHEDULE P . 16 At ROAR, Ranger Orientation, Advising, and Registration, Academic Advisors will assist you in choosing courses that areappropriate for the area you would like to pursue as well as courses that are appropriate based on your test scores. As a full-time freshman, you should schedule between 12-18 credits. When creating a class schedule, it's important to take into account outside activities such as: school organizations, work, family responsibilities, and commuting to and from campus. 1.) Math (depending on placement) 2.) English (depending on placement) 3.) Reading (depending on placement) 2.) Foreign Language (if needed) 4.) General education course (green sheet) 5.) Any course that interests you Of course, every schedule depends on the individual student. If you aren't sure if you will like a course, check out the Bookstore. See what books are required reading for the course. Chances are if the books look interesting to you, you will enjoy the course. Jump Start Your College Experience 2012�2013 Things you may or may not know... � The academic school year consists of a fall and spring semester. Each semester lasts 14 weeks. You can also take courses during a summer session and/or winterim session (which is between the fall and spring semester.) � The courses you select will last one semester (14 weeks). Toward the end of the fall semester, you will choose new courses with your advisor for the spring semester. � Classes during the semester are usually Monday/Wednesday/Friday or Tuesday/ Thursday. The Monday/Wednesday/Friday classes last for 53 minutes versus the Tuesday/Thursday classes which are 82 minutes in length. � If you begin a class and feel it is not a good fit for you, you may be able to drop it � check your schedule book or the Academic Advising and Career Center website for drop deadlines and other important dates. If you are unsure what to do, call your academic advisor to talk things over. � Notification of your registration date and time will be posted in Solar each semester. You must meet with your assigned academic advisor before you are allowed to register. Schedule your appointment early to avoid the rush. COURSE EXPECTATIONS Many new freshmen wonder if they will be able to "make it" in college courses. You may have heard from teachers, parents, and counselors that college level work is quite different from high school. College will differ from high school but only because it's now your responsibility to learn. Your course-work in college is more demanding but you will also find it more interesting. It may take some time and some adjustments to your study skills, but you can make a successful transition into college. Here are some tips on how to succeed in college: ATTENDANCE ATTEND CLASS!!! Lectures, class discussions, presentations and class activities elaborate on the as-signed material and help with understanding. That is why attendance at every class is important. If you miss a class, get the handouts, class notes, and assignments from the missed class and be prepared for the next class. CLASS PREPARATION Typically, you should prepare to spend a minimum of two (2) hours outside of class for every one (1) hour you spend in class. Class assignments, readings and written reports should be completed prior to the class meeting, not in class. ASSIGNMENTS Read the syllabus carefully, so you know when assignments are due. Know, also, whether they are to be typed. Correct spelling, grammar and punctuation are expected on all assignments, whether specifically pointed out by the instructor or not. TESTS AND QUIZZES Know when each test and quiz is scheduled. Ask your instructor for the policy on missed test and/or quizzes. You can't assume that missed tests/quizzes can be made up. Missing a test/quiz due to serious illness, emergency or other serious situations should be explained to the instructor as soon as possible. ACADEMIC HONESTY Plagiarism is presenting someone else's creation--words, charts, graphics, calculations, or ideas--as your own without referring to the original author. The UW-Parkside Misconduct Policy states that "Academic misconduct is an act in which a student seeks to claim credit for the work or efforts of another without authorization or citation." University of Wisconsin Parkside Misconduct Policy #28 ADVISING Every student at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside is required to meet with an academic advisor each semester before registering. A hold is placed on your registration until you meet with your advisor. Sign up early to meet with your advisor so you can get the schedule of classes that you want! Jump Start Your College Experience 2012�2013 P . 17 THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW P . 18 2012�2013 USE CAMPUS RESOURCES Pick up a student calendar at the beginning of the semester. This book has the phone numbers of most campus resources like the Academic Advising and Career Center, Library, Parkside Academic Resource Center, the Ranger Writing Center, and Student Health and Counseling just to name a few. GET INVOLVED ON CAMPUS Visit the Student Activities Office, SCTR L104, to find out what activities you can get involved with while on campus. ASK FOR HELP Don't be afraid to ask for help. If you are having difficulty in a course, talk with your instructor. They want to know if you aren't understanding the material or if there is something else going on in your life that is interfering with class. Also, talk with your advisor if you aren't sure where to go for help. Your advisor can help you determine your next step. WATCH YOUR GRADE POINT AVERAGE Many majors require a certain Grade Point Average (GPA) before you can declare. Be certain you start off with a strong GPA your first few semesters. It can really make a difference by providing a firm foundation. If your semester GPA falls below a 2.0 and above a 1.5, you will find yourself on probation. Two semesters below 2.0 can lead to suspension for an academic year and a need to appeal to the Academic Actions Committee for readmission. Readmission is not a given. To regain good standing, you would need an accumulated GPA of at least 2.0. WATCH DEADLINES There are many deadlines to watch for during the semester. Keep your schedule book! In the front of it you will find all the deadlines for important things like the last day to add/drop a class, last day to withdraw from all classes, and the last day to apply for graduation just to name a few. Also, pay attention to Financial Aid, Cashier, and Scholarship deadlines which you can find by calling or stopping by those offices. If you miss a deadline, there might be other options. Visit the Academic Advising and Career Center or your advisor for information. SEE YOUR ADVISOR Your advisor can help you with course selection for the upcoming semester, talk with you about majors and/or graduate school, and help you declare your major. If you are having trouble in classes, adjusting to life as a college student, or just aren't sure where to go for help, visit your advisor.
