There has been a lot of tech rocking and rolling when it comes to security staff and their tasks of patrolling, protecting and reporting. In the past, technology used by a security officer was limited to a guard tour system device, a two-way radio, a flashlight and keys. Often there was limited communication and incident reporting was via paperwork and relied heavily on memory. Critical information was not shared effectively.
Fitting into an Officer's HandsIt seems every time a new techie gadget is introduced, someone tries to mold it or force it into the hands of a security officer. Joysticks. Touch screens. Is the iPad next? Apple's Steve Jobs might think so when he said that "I've always wanted to own and control the primary technology in everything we do."
Avoid a Human, Technology DisconnectionYet Drew Levine, president of G4S Secure Solutions cautions, that as many push towards enhancing technology, businesses are learning that just investing in technology is not enough. He often sees businesses that have spent significantly on technology, but there has been a disconnect with their security officers. It is imperative that it is all tied together, he notes.
There is no disconnect for officers at Willis Tower, one of the world's tallest buildings. They work smoothly with technology to deliver bottom line services from the 107th Floor on down. Keith Kambic, the tower's director of security and life safety and earlier featured in Security magazine, realized a mindset change was needed after 9/11. His contracted service (AlliedBarton) "showed us that they could assist in controlling our costs, implement the newest in technology and place a greater emphasis on security officer training and customer service, too," he says.
Two-Way Radios Continue to EvolveConcerning communications, two-way radios remain an important tech tool for security officers although cellular and smart phones have a growing role. Such mobile radios today are high powered, simple to use, and are available as low-cost units in VHF and UHF frequencies and wattage with a number of conventional talk channels. According to Brandon Ocampo of Two Way Direct, in open field use, VHF will travel farther, while in buildings, UHF travels better. Its Blackbox units boast 16 channels.
Security officers who welcome and manage visitors and contractors onto a site now have a number of options. Electronic access control systems often can include visitor management while firms such as EasyLobby specialize in standalone and access-integrated systems. There are solutions a security step higher than yesterday's sign-in logs. In these applications, less costly, simple to use solutions are in the hands of security officers. Take, for example, visitor badging.
Reduce Cost, Improve SecurityThe endpoint: decreasing the physical footprint through broader security coverage that requires fewer uniformed guard hours, thus reducing costs while improving security.
For example, incident reporting and task management lets security conduct configurable data collection, workflow and analysis, ensuring compliance, collaboration and permitting organizational convergence, according to Julie Copithorne of D3. The e-alerts enable individuals to open a configured form to report events. Data can trigger automatic notifications, alert responsible security professionals, and prompt human audits to escalate or archive events, she adds. And geofences can be set up to reflect officer patrols and assignments.
Are the Robots Marching ForwardIs the ultimate future for security officers be robots and drones? There are continuing advances in patrol robots inside facilities and on the perimeter. Back in the late 1990s, companies such as Hitachi were assembling wheeled vehicles with sensors and cameras that could be programmed to follow a set route.
Who's Guarding the Schools?School districts throughout the country face diverse threats from vandalism and theft to violence. At the same time, budget-strapped schools often depend on local law enforcement to provide officers on patrol inside buildings and around them. Often, only the largest districts can afford their own security officers.
So it is no surprise that many schools opt for increasing use of security video.
A case in point: In California, the Redlands Unified School District serves the communities of Redlands, Loma Linda, Mentone, San Bernardino, Yucaipa and East Highland with 23 elementary, middle, and high schools, as well as the Redlands Independent Study Education school.

NBA ATS Countdown
NBA ATS Countdown Issue 9
by: Cajun Sports
We are back for another installment of our NBA ATS Countdown which takes a look at the Top Five NBA teams against the spread. As we do in most issues we not only look at ATS situations for the Top 5 teams we also look at total situations and provide a Key Angle for each team. This edition has a new member but one that has been here before, Boston used a 4-2 ATS run to climb back into the Top 5 in the league against the spread. Here are the Top 5 take a look…
Even posting a subpar 3-3 ATS record since our last countdown the Orlando Magic were able to hold onto their Number One ranking. The Magic are 37-20 ATS overall on the year which includes a record of 17-11 ATS on their home floor and 20-9 ATS when they hit the highway. Both records are above 60% which is considered the Holy Grail in sports wagering, if one can only hit 60% all their troubles would over, right? Well on to the rest of the Magic's money-making situations. In our last issue we mentioned playing on the Magic when they have two days rest, they were 9-0 ATS but have since lost 1 game in that situation but they are still a solid 9-1 ATS. When Orlando is playing a back-to-back on the road they are perfect in the second game posting a record of 5-0 ATS, they were 4-0 ATS in our last report and picked up a win to improve that record. The Magic's top total situation is to play the 'over' when they are installed as an underdog; they are 8-3-1 'over' for 72.7 percent winners. Key Angle: Orlando is 7-25-1 ATS versus a conference opponent when coming off a SU loss and going 'under' in their previous game.
Cleveland is still the number two team in our countdown, and they used a 4-3 ATS record to retain their position. The Cavs have an overall mark of 36-20 ATS which includes a record of 20-7 ATS (2-1 ATS since our last countdown) at home and 16-13 ATS (2-2 ATS since our last countdown) on the road. Cleveland's home ATS record is the best in the league while the Magic own the highway with their 20-9 ATS mark on the road this season. Cleveland stumbled and suffered their first ATS loss of the season when coming in off a SU loss in their last game, they also picked up a win in that situation, last issues record had them at 9-0 ATS on the season they are now 10-1 ATS but still a very solid play. The Cavs are 9-3 ATS for 75 percent winners when playing with no rest their last 12 times to post. Cleveland's top total situation paid very well since the last report, they went 1-4 'under' when playing with only one day of rest. Their overall record is 9-19 'under' for 67.9 percent winners when playing the 'under' off one day of rest. Key Angle: Play ON Cleveland as a conference favorite when they are coming off a SU loss and ATS win in their previous game, 26-7-1 ATS.
Our number three team in the countdown moved up a spot from our last report. Charlotte used a 4-3 ATS record to knock Oklahoma City out of the third spot and in fact out of the top five altogether. Charlotte has been the hottest team of late going 6-1 ATS to get into Issue Number 8 and then this periods 4-3 ATS for a 10-4 ATS combined mark the last two issues. Charlotte is 34-24 ATS overall on the year using a 16-11 ATS road mark to propel them into the Top Five in the league. The Bobcats are 22-14 ATS when facing teams from the Eastern Conference and 10-2 ATS when facing teams from the Southeast Division. Charlotte has responded well after suffering an ATS loss in their previous game going 16-10 ATS for 61.5 percent winners. The Bobcats top total situation is when they are installed as an underdog posting a record of 5-11-1 'under' in that role. Key Angle: Play ON Charlotte when facing a conference opponent after losing SU and going 'under' in their last two games, 17-5 ATS.
The number four spot in this edition of the countdown is last editions number five team, the Milwaukee Bucks who posted a record of only 3-3 ATS but managed to move up in the countdown. The Bucks are 33-25-2 ATS on the season which includes records of 16-12 ATS at home averaging 104.1 points per game and allowing 99.5 points per game. On the road the Bucks are 17-13-2 ATS averaging 95.8 points per game and allowing 100.3 points per game. Milwaukee's scoring differential at home is +4.5 ppg. and their scoring differential on the road is -4.5 ppg. The Bucks are 9-3 ATS for 75 percent winners when facing teams from the Southeast Division and 6-1 ATS for 85.7 percent winners when facing teams from the Southwest Division. The Bucks top total situation is when they are installed as a home underdog going 9-1 'over' this season. Key Angle: Play AGAINST Milwaukee when playing on the road after winning SU and going 'under' in their last two games, 8-25-2 ATS.
We have reached the fifth and final spot in our countdown and this team is to our countdown what "Norm" and "Cliff" were to Cheers, regulars. Boston is the number five team in the countdown using a 4-2 ATS mark to get back in and knock the Thunder out. Milwaukee took advantage of the Celtics 2-4 ATS record and knocked them out of our last edition but they are back and have an overall ATS record of 33-26 ATS on the season. The Celtics are 16-12 ATS at home and 17-14 ATS on the road. Boston is 20-5 SU and 15-10 ATS after losing ATS in their last game averaging 104.8 points per game and allowing 93.4 points per game with a scoring differential of +11.5 ppg. They are also 16-9 'over' in those contests. When playing on two days rest the Celtics are 11-0 SU and 9-2 ATS for 81.8 percent winners, they have gone 'over' in those games at a rate of 8-3 their last 11. Boston has three top total situations the first is when playing on the road they are 9-22 'under', playing with no rest they are 3-11 'under' and the third situation is when the Celtics are playing the second of back-to-back road games they are 0-5 'under'. Key Angle: Play AGAINST Boston after winning their last three games SU and going 'over', 7-21 ATS their last 28 times to post.

It's amazing what a large group of citizens can achieve when they work/gather together! It's inspiring, but extremely scary at the same time.
Darn... why didn't we think of storming DC when Bush was still in office, setting up tents and refusing to leave until he left office?
How exciting!
Just a reminder, though. Political debate is not hosted on MDC, so please refrain from that.
And then down Mubarak went, it will be interesting to see if any other totalitarian dictators fall as well. Libya's Ghaddafhi seems like the next likely candidate...

We invite you to view a 3-minute movie about Compliance Solutions. Click here to view: http://www.csregs.com/about-us/movie/
Our Story
Compliance Solutions was born on December 15, 1995 in Denver, Colorado, even though the idea for the company was conceived many years prior. The company's two founders, Jeff Kline and Neval Gupta, launched Compliance Solutions with the sincere belief that something had to be done to lower the cost of environmental training while providing a product that protects employees AND meets their regulatory burden. At that time, the average cost for a 40-Hour HAZWOPER course was in excess of $895 per student. "We knew we could provide our clients with superior customer service and training at an affordable price" recalls Mr. Gupta.
Compliance Solutions made it's debut in the environmental arena with one instructor teaching classes in four cities (Denver, Detroit, Atlanta, and Oakland). Since then, Compliance has grown to be the largest private training company in the environmental industry with more than 15,000 students attending their classes each year. Mandated OSHA, EPA, and DOT instructor-led training is offered in more than 60 U.S. cities (12 cities weekly) with more than 30 instructors located strategically throughout the country. That is a HUGE jump from where they started in 1995!
In 1998, while focusing on customer service, Compliance Solutions introduced what clients have described as the highest quality on-line training in the environmental industry. "I remember back then, companies said they offered "online hazmat training" says Jeff Kline. After we bought their course and looked at it, it was clear that their definition of "hazmat training" was MUCH different from ours." He continued,
"Really, it was not much better than a glorified PowerPoint presentation. We knew we could do MUCH better and so?..we did!"
Compliance Solutions' Service Mark "putting the class back into online training" summarizes the quality of the courses offered online. With the comprehensive nature of the online content and using the "blended learning methodology, Compliance Solutions has distinguished themselves from the competition. The 40-Hour HAZWOPER online course enables the student to complete 32-hours of training at their own pace online and then attend the essential 8-hour Hands-on instructor-led course. Compliance Solutions is the only viable national blended learning provider in the environmental industry. With established training facilities and instructors all over the country, students have an opportunity to don and doff personal protective equipment, demonstrate what they have learned online through interactive problem-solving exercises, and share their experiences with fellow students. It is very easy to see why Compliance Solutions maintains a solid lead and why their training is far superior to the "glorified
PowerPoint" of old.
With their customer base expanding every day (Compliance Solutions currently services more than 17,000 active clients in the U.S. alone), clearly the original philosophy is WELL received. Competitors are constantly forced to re-evaluate their market and price strategies as the average cost of the 40-hour HAZWOPER drops under $600 nationwide. "We are proud to provide the VERY best value in the environmental training industry, whether it is online training, open enrollment seminars, or on-site at your facility." says Mr. Gupta.
The family at Compliance Solutions would like to say, "Thank you" to our wonderful customers. Their insightful feedback keeps our content and courses accurate, up-to-date, and entertaining. We have enjoyed serving the environmental community since 1995 and look forward to meeting our customers hazardous materials training needs for many more years!

Online training
Get your training where it counts. Compliance Solutions introduced the highest quality online (web-based) training to the industry in 1998. At the time, the industry was flooded with companies that were providing glorified power point presentations that gave a black eye to distance learning. Since that time, many of the largest remediation companies in the US now choose Compliance Solutions as their sole online training provider because of the quality, ease of use, course content and unique features built into our courses. Since we have the ability to provide hands-on training in 60 cities at your location, Compliance Solutions is the only viable company that can provide legitimate online 40 Hour HAZWOPER training nationwide.

Trace Klug's south Laguna Beach cottage has all the signs of a busy, working mother.
Her front yard is filled with tricycles and hockey nets, along with the requisite safety devices like a child-lock on the gate of her white-picket fence, but what stands out is the neon yellow sign propped on the road just outside her fence. "Slow. Kids at play," the sign reminds drivers in bright red letters.
With two young children, a part-time job as a neo-natal nurse and volunteer work as a Girl Scout leader, you can imagine that Klug doesn't have extra time to spare. But if there's one thing that Klug makes time for in her busy schedule, it's street safety.
She and her husband, Robert, moved to this picturesque seaside neighborhood a mere two years ago, but it didn't take long for Klug to realize that her paradise had its problems.
While walking in their neighborhood, she and her son Spencer, now 2, were almost hit several times by cars. She realized the area's narrow streets, lack of sidewalks and 25 mph speed limits were contributing to the problem.
"Pedestrians - we don't know where to go, where we're going to be safe," says Klug. And drivers don't see us. Most of the time they're distracted or they're in a hurry."
Bill Rihn, president of the South Laguna Civic Association, says that most residents think there is a problem with pedestrian safety, but not everyone wants regulations.
"So finding the right balance, it takes a lot of effort," he says.
When a 17-year-old boy was killed nearby about a year ago, Klug decided it was time to take to the streets.
"To me, safety comes first and safety should always come first, but we realized in this town it doesn't," says Klug.
So, a year ago, Klug, along with other residents, created a Pedestrian and Child Safety Committee and began searching for ways to reduce speed limits, erect more stop signs, and build new sidewalks and bicycle lanes.
But she quickly stumbled across roadblocks.
She met with city staff, and attended meetings of the city's Parking, Traffic & Circulation (PTC) committee to express her concerns. Their response?
They acknowledged to me they told her that the city didn't have a traffic engineer and that she would have to hire one herself.
"We left there just completely shocked," says Klug.

Comments about SEYCHELLES PARDON MY FRENCH BUCKLE SANDAL:
Works well with maxi, rompers, printed pants, shorts...pretty much anything. They're feminine enough from the front angle (single band across) but the ankle straps + arch wrap makes it more vintage & edgy. The 1 1/2 inch heel adds just enough height without going overboard (or completely flat). I am between 7 and 7.5 shoe sizes. Shoes I usually take 7.5 (my feet tends to be wide) and sandals usually 7 (depending on the straps or foot bed). For some reason I ordered the 7.5 just in case. The foot bed was a good fit, but I had to tighten the ankle straps a bit more. In retrospect, I could have fitted the 7 as well, and the ankle strap would haven been perfect. No matter, I am still happy with the 7.5
Can't wait for the snow to melt and hit the streets with these...

EVERETT, Wash. -- Parents of two Stanwood brothers, critically ill with Swine Flu, are pleading with everyone to get a flu vaccination if you haven't already received one.
Steve and Mike Wolfe, 31, were living together and became sick in early March. Their illnesses rapidly progressed and both developed pneumonia. They are now in critical condition at Providence Regional Medical Center.
The brothers, born 4 minutes apart, were admitted to the hospital less than a day apart and remain on ventilators.
We don't know how they got it, their father, Don Wolfe, said. But they didn't get their flu shot.
Fewer people are getting vaccinated compared to last year, local health officials say, and fewer people have been hospitalized with the flu virus. But doctors say the flu threat is still real and flu season is peaking late this year.
If we really are peaking, then it is on the tail end, Dr. Gary Preston, Epidemiologist with Providence said. There have been years when we've seen cases on into August.
The Wolfe family is pleading with others to get vaccinated.
Now I know how important it is, watching our sons go through what they are going through, Don said. I would not want anyone to have to experience it.

My template is soft-rejected and one of the reasons given is : Sidebar – unacceptable as it is plain, messy and unfinished. I would really like to hear some advice from you on how I should further improve it. I have been trying to keep the sidebar 'simple' and 'low profile' so that the users will not be distracted when they read the content, but now it seems that my approach is wrong?
Here is the image : http://i47.tinypic.com/5b9xqb.png
Thanks for helping!
Hello, if you look at the more popular items here in Themeforest, you-ll notice that most sidebars (if they even have one) are below the header area… Perhaps you wanted to be unique, but the way youve separated it doesnt look good to me..
Thats just my own personal impression. keep it up, you can do it! Hope to see your item up in the marketplace soon S.

Calif. debates place of gay history in textbooks
"How would one responsibly teach concerning a religion that holds a less than favorable view of homosexuality without such instruction, per se, reflecting adversely on that religion?" Evans asked.
Republican Sen. Doug La Malfa, of Butte, appealed to colleagues to defeat the measure, saying it promotes a selective approach to reduce school bullying, although it affects more than gay children.
"This, to me, is the final frontier of advancing this (gay rights) agenda into schools," La Malfa said. "What are we going to take out of the curriculum to get this type of curriculum in? Are we going to take Winston Churchill out?"
Public schools never are far away from gay rights debates.
"And Tango Makes Three," a children's picture book about two male penguins raising an orphan penguin, last week again topped the American Library Association's annual list of most-challenged books.
During the successful campaign to ban same-sex marriage in California, gay marriage opponents' most successful message was warning that schoolchildren would be taught about same-sex couples if they could marry.
The groups fighting Leno's bill also lobbied hard five years ago against a similar measure that was amended to simply disallow textbooks portraying gay people in a negative light. Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger vetoed it as unnecessary.
When new history texts were created for California in the 1980s, a range of groups attacked the series, recalled Gary Nash, director of the UCLA National Center for History in the Schools, who oversaw the effort.
While evangelicals complained the texts did not depict the Founding Fathers as devout Christians, gay rights activists pushed to have Alexander Hamilton, Abraham Lincoln, John Maynard Keynes and Eleanor Roosevelt acknowledged as one of their own, Nash said.
He thinks California students should be exposed to gay history but not before 11th grade, when they study the social movements of the mid-to-late 20th century.
NYU's Zimmerman has a different concern. He agrees with Leno that adding a gay lens to history could enrich children's' understanding of the world.
"I am 100 percent for adding gay and lesbian history. It's something everybody should know," he said. "But if you took it seriously, what it would force you to do is to ask really hard questions about how sexuality works in this country, who benefits and who is marginalized. That tells you a whole lot more about history than that Langston Hughes and Walt Whitman were gay."
For all the heat curriculum debates generate, it's not always clear that the changes trickle down to students, especially with teachers under pressure to improve test scores in reading and math, said Henry Der, a former California deputy state schools superintendent.
"As much as we respect a leader like Harvey Milk or Cesar Chavez, ... teachers aren't getting to teaching about the contributions of these individuals," Der said. "It really all comes down to what happens in the classroom and what principals and teachers deem to be important given the amount of time they have."

This busty blonde had no way to get to class, and was so thankful for a free ride that she decided to suck dude's dick, whip out her huge natural titties, and then make her phat booty bounce on his big cock until he came all over her pretty face!

This guy we know picked up this little Latina hottie whose man was a douche. In no time Mia wanted to stray and get some random cock in her superhot ass. She sucked him off as they drove and they had to pull over to finish the fuck in a back alley.

Staten Island Pediatrician Responds To Study Linking Academic Performance With Physical Fitness
Following a study that links academic performance with physical fitness, Dr. Michael Gabriel, a Staten Island pediatrician, gives his advice on the topic.
BOHEMIA, N.Y., June 27, 2014 /PRNewswire-iReach/ — Dr. Michael Gabriel of GPM Pediatrics, a Staten Island Pediatric Center, responds to an article, "Improving academic performance with physical fitness" published by Medical News Today. The article discusses a recent study scheduled for publication in The Journal of Pediatrics, which found a link between physical fitness and academic performance.
Photo – http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20140621/119804
The article states, "Cardiorespiratory capacity, muscular strength, and motor ability are components of physical fitness that have documented potential to improve health, each of which may have different effects on the brain and, therefore, academic performance." The study looked at 2,038 children and adolescents between the ages of 6-18 with "complete data on physical fitness, body composition, and academic performance."
The study found, "Cardiorespiratory capacity and motor ability, both independently and combined, were related to academic performance. However, the association of academic performance and physical fitness was stronger for motor ability than cardiorespiratory capacity, meaning that motor ability may be more important for academic performance. In contrast, children and adolescents who had both lower levels of cardiorespiratory capacity and motor ability had lower grades."
Dr. Michael Gabriel, a Staten Island pediatrician, thinks that this study has great implications for future research. "It is well known that physical fitness has an effect on mental health and physical health but this research suggests that there can also be a link between academic performance and that is very interesting for the medical community." Dr. Gabriel asks parents to encourage their children to be active for at least an hour a day. "Whether or not future studies agree with this finding, keeping your child active is extremely important for their overall wellbeing. The summer is a great time to come up with fun games to get your child outside playing instead of sitting sedentary front of a television screen. Kids need to keep both their body and brain stimulated over the summer and physical activity is a great way to do so."

24 or 27 ft Catamaran with cabin (afforable) exist?
Lost my Catalina 22 to Sandy.
I have about 5 grand to spend on a new boat.
Was wondering - is there a sailing catamaran with even a small cabin exist for that price range (used, obviously and I am willing to put work into it)?
Outside craigslist and ebay - any suggestions in where I can look around?
Any insight, opinions, advice are appreciated!
Re: 24 or 27 ft Catamaran with cabin (afforable) exist?
Maybe a Warram Tiki? This listing is so old I doubt it's still available but it says it was listed for $9k in good shape: Scott's Boat Pages: Wharram Tiki 21 For Sale in Colorado
There's an older thread with some pictures of the interior: http://www.sailnet.com/forums/other-...catamaran.html
I don't think they're easy to find but might be what you're looking for.
Re: 24 or 27 ft Catamaran with cabin (afforable) exist?
You could look for a farrier 720. It's a trimaran not a cat, but are generally available in the 8 grand range asking.
Re: 24 or 27 ft Catamaran with cabin (afforable) exist?
If you are into building Jones has plans for sale for plywood builds. I'd also look at several designs by Bernd Kohler, again if you are up for a build. I like both of these guys plans because their designs are not complex builds.
There is a designers list here Multihull Dynamics, Inc. - Waypoints
I think right now though, generally speaking, the market is so down that it could be cheaper to buy a worn out model and upgrade than to build; but being informed all the way around about your options will help you make the best choice for you.
Search for Telstar 26's and Telstar 8M's. These are the early model Telstar tris and can be found for around 10K, probably needing some work, with a trailer. Because they are trailerable you can drive across country and pick one up. Here is a review on one with photos:
Telstar 8M Review
Sorry you lost your boat, hope your residence is OK, good luck in your search :)
Re: 24 or 27 ft Catamaran with cabin (afforable) exist?
I don't believe this is realistic. If your budget is just $5K buy a monohull. Catamarans have lots of great features but $$ price has never been one of them.
Re: 24 or 27 ft Catamaran with cabin (afforable) exist?
I bought a 38' Cross trimaran for $2500.00 a few years ago. It was rough but took on no water. The guy I sold it to finished it and cruised the Channel Islands with it. It's still in Morro Bay and a year ago the owner was desperate to sell. Prolly take 5K. It's rough again.
It was on a mooring at Marina Square, they can give the owner your number and maybe he'll call. I know it's on the wrong coast.
Re: 24 or 27 ft Catamaran with cabin (afforable) exist?
For about twice that you can by a real rocket that is cruisable, for the adventurous.

Harrison widow facing neighbor dispute
Olivia Harrison, widow of the late Beatles guitarist George Harrison, has a fence around her British home that is a danger to pets, a neighbor says.
Actor Rodney Bewes, who lives near Harrison's home in Henley-on-Thames, said the razor wire fence surrounding Harrison's Friar Park mansion nearly killed his cat, The Daily Telegraph reported Saturday.
My cat, Maurice, has been injured on that fence several times, once severing an artery that nearly killed him, said Bewes, best known for his
The Likely Lads role.
It has cost me thousands in vets' bills. There are several other cats — people's pets — that have been practically gored on that fence, it's that dangerous.
Bewes recognized Harrison's need for security following a 1999 break-in at the home before her husband's death, but suggested the need for such concerns may have passed.
It was an horrific thing to have happened, no one is arguing about that, but is the danger and the threat really still there? Bewes told the Telegraph.

Sparkling blue flashes. "Ooh!" Cascading streaks of red light. "Aah!" Sizzling green explosions. "Wow!"

Question: A 9x9 baking pan is equal to how many quarts?

Is it true that the user have the skill to use it
or perhaps aid will likely be needed? The majority of stairlifts use buttons as a means to control operation,
but also for certain users it may be more appropriate to utilize a joystick.
July 24, 2013
I've learn several just right stuff here. Definitely price bookmarking for revisiting. I surprise how a lot effort you put to create this sort of great informative website.
July 30, 2013
I've been surfing online more than three hours nowadays, but I by no means discovered any fascinating article like yours. It is lovely worth enough for me. In my opinion, if all website owners and bloggers made excellent content material as you did, the web will be much more useful than ever before.
July 31, 2013
You will get a suitable stairlift regardless about what
kind of stairs you've got. When you have an ordinary straight stairs, then you're
in luck because straight stairlifts are the most typical and the most inexpensive.
For those who have curved stairs, than you'll need a curved stair-lift. Stairlifts may be electrical or battery powered.

Skype for Mac 2.6 beta now available
updated 10:05 am EDT, Wed April 11, 2007
Skype for Mac 2.6 beta
Skype on Wednesday released Skype for Mac 2.6 Beta, a new version of the internet telephony application that features better quality and stability as well as a new Mac-only call transfer feature and better feature parity with its Windows counterpart. The company said that the Mac version now boasts virtually all of the features offered on the Windows platform, including the ability to join public chats, a typing indicator, the ability to call any Skype Prime premium services provider and pay with Skype credit, an integrated software update function, and the availability of DTMF tones for automatic answering services during Skype-to-Skype calls. Skype requires Mac OS X 10.3.9 or later and is a free download.
"Mac users have been asking for better quality and Skype has taken action. By ironing out the little bugs that users have pointed out, Skype for Mac 2.6 Beta boasts increased quality and stability," the company said. "And as Skype understands that even small things like handling birthday reminders or other notifications are important for Mac users too, we spent a lot of time streamlining the small stuff in this new release."

John Lovelace, 4th Baron Lovelace (1672 – 1709) was the Governor of both New York and New Jersey.
He was the son of William Lovelace of Hurst, Berkshire, and was not related to Francis Lovelace, the second Governor of New York. Despite being born into an aristocratic family, the previous baron had weakened the family's fortunes through gambling, leaving John heavily in debt. He therefore served in the military following the inheritance of his peerage. In 1702, Lovelace married Charlotte, the daughter of Sir John Clayton, but her poor dowry little improved his financial situation. The couple had four children: Hon. Martha (d. 1788), Hon. John (d. 1709), Hon. Neville (d. 1736) and Charles (d. 1707 in Sanderstead, England).
In 1708, Lovelace was appointed to governorship of both New York and New Jersey to replace Lord Cornbury. Lovelace proceeded to convict several of Cornbury's supporters, members of the corrupt Cornbury Ring, including former Governor Jeremiah Basse. Lovelace was granted £1600 by a revenue bill on 5 May 1709. However, he died the next day, 6 May 1709. His funeral was held in Trinity Church, New York and he was buried in the adjacent cemetery.

What neighborhoods in San Diego are good for eating out?
Old Town San Diego boasts the best and greatest variety of SD eats. With a wide variety of cuisines including Mexican, Italian, Japanese, Creole, Peruvian and regional California fare, there is something in Old Town to suit every appetite and budget.
Jack and Giulio's Italian Restaurant features some of the best homemade pastas, veal dishes, and seafood specialties in the city. Del Mar is another San Diego foodie hotspot with picturesque ocean views and delicious, diverse cuisine. Or pick up a tasty fish taco from Brigantine, or enjoy some world-class prime rib at Bully's, both located in Del Mar.
My grandson is stationed in San Diego, Ca. 92108, he will be shispped out for seven months, but after that I would like to find a hotel/apartment type place to stay for awhile.
We have over 700 apartments in San Diego to choose from. We'd guess that he'd want to be near the beach and recommend Ocean, Mission or Pacific Beach neighborhoods.

There was a slew of details here, a slightly hard-to-believe release date there, and, right in the middle, we now have a first trailer for Promised Land. Coming off his little-seen Restless, Gus Van Sant has reunited with Good Will Hunting and Gerry star Matt Damon for a drama which, in some part, focuses on the perils corporate fracking infringe upon a small town. A small town which is both full of the one thing that scares any big business — free thinkers — and peppered with the likes of John Krasinski, Rosemarie DeWitt, and Hal Holbrook. Conflict ensues.
Or does it? The trailer's a bit confused, tonally; two-and-a-half minutes' time alone runs the gamut from Michael Clayton to any one of the classic "big city man goes to small town" types of stories. (Most of which happen to be uplifting romantic comedies.) In most cases, that would be an obvious cause for concern — or, worse, a perfect reason to tune out — but, really, it's not as though some anonymous type is behind the camera or charisma-free schlubs are taking up screen space. (Damon and Krasinski's screenwriting credits definitely spice this with an element of curiosity, too.) What Promised Land currently lacks in a true identity, silly as that may sound, I'm confident it can amend for in final results.
Check it out below thanks to Apple, along with the poster:
Corporate salesman Steve Butler (Damon) arrives in a rural town with his sales partner, Sue Thomason (McDormand). With the town having been hit hard by the economic decline of recent years, the two outsiders see the local citizens as likely to accept their company's offer, for drilling rights to their properties, as much-needed relief. What seems like an easy job for the duo becomes complicated by the objection of a respected schoolteacher (Holbrook) with support from a grassroots campaign led by another man (Krasinski) who counters Steve both personally and professionally.
Promised Land will open in limited release on December 28th.
Judging by this first trailer, do Van Sant and team have things on the right track?

I think the trick is to keep a camera handy in your jacket or tank bag and be ready to take hundreds if not thousands of pics, and sift through them. I took 1,700 plus photos. Not all of them have to be National Geographic quality, but if you remember, the tip from the ride report from the guy in Alaska is to try to capture photos in the best light - early morning and later in the afternoon. That's why the San Miguel de Allende photos came out so nice (in my opinon!) - they were taken at the right time of day, using manual settings. Remember, number of megapixels or cost of the camera do not matter!
Here is the down-low on insurance:
Yes, I had Mexican insurance. I purchased it online at the same time I was online planning the trip and getting the import permit online from Banjercito.
But, I had Mexican insurance only so far as liability is concerned. It is not mandatory for travel in Mexico, but no sane person would cross the border without it. If you get into an accident involving another person, you can be held until guilt is determined. Having a liability policy will ease your mind and potentially save you from major grief.
Do not enter Mexico without at least liability
On my previous trips, I had carried liability AND collision but didn't need it, then. So as I was deciding what to carry on THIS trip I rolled the dice (and obviously lost) and didn't take it.
The repair cost just under $3,000 which I ate out-of-pocket.
Next time, which looks like 8 weeks from now, I'll go back to carrying both liability AND comprehensive.
Other Insurance: Medically I am covered by a private carrier but I also have Med Jet Assist, which I highly recommend. If the mishap had turned out such that I couldn't ride and the bike was toast, I would have flown home from Puerto Vallarta and Med Jet would have arranged to ship the bike back. Med Jet only does that from Canada, the U.S. and Mexico, for an additional $25 per year - cheap.
Si Señor I will do just that
Any town in Mexico with taxis is a place you can use this tip.
After the bike was fixed, I found myself back at the hotel with a desire to see some of the downtown sights. So instead of asking what it would cost to this place, that place etc., I just asked the guy what he would charge by the hour to drive me around, and wait while I jumped out and walked around. He gets a good fare and you get a dedicated driver PLUS you can ask the driver to take you to things you should definitely not miss.
So I hop in the cab and do just that.
Here is Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor's house:
Burton came to Pto. Vallarta to film "The Night of the Iguana" and bought this place, called "Casa Kimberley". They lived in the place from '63 to '74, or so said the taxista, who seemed to be up on the facts. He said that before "The Night of the Iguana" and the Burtons, the Pto. V. was a forgotten little sea side fishing village, but after the movie, it got on the map.
I spliced in some video from the rally. Can you tell which scenes are from the movie and which are from the trip?
It's most distinctive feature is that bridge across the road, where I assume Ms. Taylor would kick Rich out and send him to the "dog house". The bridge is supposed to be a replica of Venice's Rialto Bridge, if you've ever seen it.
Richard's pad had it's own kitchen and other amenities. My version is an actual dog house
As I've mentioned, I'm not Catholic, but I always like going to the churches in every Mexican town I visit:
When I go into these churches, I always shoot without flash and without any noise cues from the camera, such as those annoying fake shutter clicks.
Often, I also shoot in stealth mode, which means I don't put the camera to my face but hold it on the side and press the shutter constantly. I know I'll dump most of them later, but the technique comes in handy if you don't want to disturb or offend your photo subjects.
I was going to include an example shot of a guy, grief-stricken and prostrate, crying and petitioning before the alter, but out of respect I decided to leave it out of this series.
The quiet restaurant, beach-side, of the cozy Buenaventura:
The back side of the Sheraton, where everybody else was staying:
Rustic/touristy Puerto Vallarta, on the Bahia de Banderas...
You have no idea how humid it was in Puerto Vallarta. The taxi guy I hired didn't have A/C, which I should have asked about before I hired him.
He took me to Wal-Mart so I could buy a rubber malet to pound the left side pannier back into somewhat useable shape, and I nearly melted from being somewhat ill, the heat, the humidity and everything else.
Sunday Morning:
A shot of the motorcycle, bars removed and windscreen covered, moments before firing up and moving out with our small patrol:
Very early on in the planning stages had thought about riding north out of Puerto Vallarta towards Galeana, but grabbed the chance to ride south instead to explore a part of Mexico I had not been to.
We would be riding Mexico 200, the same highway traveled by Ozymandias - Clayton Schwartz - and I thought about the OZ-man all the time as we hugged the coast. RIP Ozy - this leg was for you.

OK Milton I always thought I'd have to be crazy to take narcotics and ride a motorcycle, but I was tempted! No, I didn't do it, but it would have made the trip more comfortable.
So, I rode on out of Pto. Vallarta at about the 60% feel-good level, and for some reason sweated my butt off the next few days. I mean as in buckets of sweat, not just due to the humidity. We stopped for gas down the road and Hap asked me if I wanted to lie down for, like, a month or two.
Right after departing Pto. Vallarta - and I mean within the hour, we ran into the oddest checkpoint I've ever seen, and began to see dozens of donkeys.
Let me sort those photos and I'll post them pronto

Whats in Your IPOD?
I wish YouTube had an olfactory feature, whereby you could share the smells of food cooking in a road side stand, or the pine scented air along the Espinazo, things like that.
But I can share the song that I dialed up as wheels rolled down the first miles of twisties on MX 200.
Don't know about you, but I have periods of total silence in the helmet, and others when I crank up the tunes. I use an IPOD as well as the XM/MP3 off of the Zumo.
Here is the tune, one of my favorite CS&N ballads of all time...
Got out of town on a boat
Goin' to Southern islands.
Sailing a reach
Before a followin' sea.
She was makin' for the trades
On the outside,
And the downhill run
To Papeete.
Off the wind on this heading
Lie the Marquesas.
We got eighty feet of the waterline.
Nicely making way.
In a noisy bar in Avalon
I tried to call you.
But on a midnight watch I realized
Why twice you ran away.
Think about how many times
I have fallen
Spirits are using me
larger voices callin'.
What heaven brought you and me
Cannot be forgotten.
I have been around the world,
Lookin' for that woman/girl,
Who knows love can endure.
And you know it will.
And you know it will.
When you see the Southern Cross
For the first time
You understand now
Why you came this way
'Cause the truth you might be runnin' from
Is so small.
But it's as big as the promise
The promise of a comin' day.
So I'm sailing for tomorrow
My dreams are a dyin'.
And my love is an anchor tied to you
Tied with a silver chain.
I have my ship
And all her flags are a flyin'
She is all that I have left
And music is her name.
Think about how many times
I have fallen
Spirits are using me
larger voices callin'.
What heaven brought you and me
Cannot be forgotten.
I have been around the world,
Lookin' for that woman/girl,
Who knows love can endure.
And you know it will.
And you know it will.
So we cheated and we lied
And we tested
And we never failed to fail
It was the easiest thing to do.
You will survive being bested.
Somebody fine
Will come along
Make me forget about loving you.
At the Southern Cross.

Pinche Gringos get Pinched
Buzzing along MX 200, our small band of vaqueros were smoothly gliding in and out of the twisties, having a fine time.
We gassed up, and were soon joined and passed by four other guys, I think from the BMW rally, who were also headed south on MX 200.
These guys were a bit faster and/or wanted to make better time, so in no time at all, they were a bit on ahead.
Hank and I think Hap were ahead of me, and as I round a bend I see the four faster guys and Hank and Hap pulled over at an Army check point.
Cones in the road, and a guy with that little tiny flag on the end of the stick. Some of you know the drill.
The rest of our small posse pulls in behind me, so there are about 10 of us lined up 2 X 2 on the right side of the road, pointed south.
Then something I've NEVER seen before...
There are guys with automatics, one guy on a .50 cal, a hummer, two trucks, everybody looking very officious and very military. But nothing I've not seen before.
Then the head honcho and two of his deputies line up, and the head guy pulls out what only can be described as a divining rod, or something he was trying to make look like an electronic antennae. He lines himself up next to the first pair of bikes, holds the rod horizontal to the ground, pointed straight out, and then he and the pair MARCH along the motorcycles to the end of the line.
Now, I'm in my helmet with my visor up, but I have my sunglasses on.
I'm trying to make eye contact with anyone with a signal like "what the hell lis going on?", but nobody is paying any attention to anyone but the commandant.
At the end of the strilng of motorcycles, he practicially about-faces and marches back up to the head of the group of bikes, turns around officiously again, and dismisses us all
If anyone has seen this, please post up and explain if you have an idea of what the guy was up to .
I have been searched tons of times, questioned, waived through, all of it, but this was THE most entertaining checkpoint I have ever been in.

Steve and the Three Teas Tour
We fire up and away from the checkpoint, and buzz along a fine Mexican morning along MX 200.
Hank and I are 1-2 now, and most of our small outfit is split up, so Hank and I pull over to wait for the others.
Shortly, this guy pulls up and flips up his visor.
It's Steve from the U.K., and he's on his way to South America:

As for escorts. . .with evenly matched opponents, I can see a tanky escort (JHAS, Patrol/Advanced escorts) hold off against 2 attackers, at best. If the attackers are crappy at PvP and timing their bursts, it'll take more. Hit 'em with immobilizers, and they'll go down faster.
escort defenses need to be nerfed a bit. That's definitely open to discussion, as some escorts are rather good at tanking when in the right hands.
Instead of screwing around with weapons, we should be taking a look at defensive powers, and re-work the system to make it harder for escorts to tank, making cruisers more valuable both in PvP and PvE. The only reason DHCs even cut through competent defenses in PvP right now is because it's burst damage. Nerf the damage of DHCs, and suddenly everyone's nigh unkillable.
Finally, a sensible suggestion.
Good work sir!

Episode #84
The Tomato in the Courtroom Edition
Friday, March 28, 2014
The Gabfest panelists have much to talk about this week: Hobby Lobby's take on reproductive rights, whether or not Hillary Clinton's age will stall her in 2016, and the influence that dictionaries have had in major court cases.
On the political spectrum of Gabfest, David Plotz is joined by Jacob Weisberg from Slate and Gail Collins from New York Times to discuss the recent lawsuit involving Hobby Lobby. The owners of the company have objections to Obamacare's "contraceptive mandate" which ensures that businesses offer their employees health insurance that covers all federally-approved contraceptive methods. That, and a lighter story: will Hillary Clinton's age matter in 2016 should she run for the Presidency?
The Culture Gabfest is on hiatus this week. Filling in is an episode of Slate's language show Lexicon Valley. Senior producer Mike Vuolo and WNYC's Bob Garfield will discuss a number of court cases in which the dictionary played a starring role.
You'll find links to some of the items mentioned in this episode on the Political Gabfest and Lexicon Valley show pages. You can also join the Gabfest discussion all week long at the Political Gabfest Facebook page and the Culture Gabfest Facebook page.
