Pulitzer prize nominated author, educator and entrepreneur Taulbert describes the life-changing influence he experienced as a child growing up in the Mississippi Delta. The entire interview will be available soon at elientrepreneur.com.
Recognizing our nation's need for greater economic participation at all levels of society, the Icehouse Entrepreneurship Program captures and conveys the "mindset" of entrepreneurs who overcame adversity and are now helping lead our economic recovery. The program was created by the Entrepreneurial Learning Initiative and Clifton Taulbert's Building Community Institute.
A culture of fun and respect for customers and employees pervades this family-owned furniture business that has been sold to legendary investor Warren E. Buffett, writes the author. Culture is what can't be taken away, even after a company is sold, as both the author and his brother are still actively involved, he notes.
A startup energy company has received federal and state approval to install a device in the St. Clair River that will create electricity from the flow of water. Vortex Hydro Energy, which has exclusive rights to commercialize atechnology patented at the University of Michigan, will install the device in July. It will be north of the Blue Water Bridge on Dunn Paper's property at 218 Riverview St., Port Huron
Instagram Co-Founders Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger challenge many of the myths surrounding startups and the lives of entrepreneurs. Both former Mayfield Fellows with the Stanford Technology Ventures Program, Systrom and Krieger share their first-hand experiences of the entrepreneurial process, including identifying good problems to solve and the value in building simple solutions and minimum viable products. Systrom and Krieger also discuss aspects of their co-founder working relationship and their efforts to maintain a balance between work and life.
In this lecture that parallels his book Good Boss, Bad Boss, Stanford professor Bob Sutton unpacks the best habits of beloved and effective managers, and details the worst habits of those who fail to lead. The best leaders develop and nurture those who work for them. However, when bosses gain more power, they can easily grow oblivious to the needs of those they lead.
Robert I. Sutton is Professor of Management Science and Engineering in the Stanford Engineering School, where he is Co-Director of the Center for Work, Technology, and Organization, an active researcher and cofounder in
the Stanford Technology Ventures Program, an IDEO Fellow and an Honorary PeopleSoft Fellow. Sutton is also a member of the MacArthur Foundation Research Network on Teaching and Learning. Sutton received his Ph.D. in Organizational
Psychology from The University of Michigan and has served on the Stanford faculty since 1983. He has also taught at the Haas Business School and was a Fellow at the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences during the 1986-87,
1994-95, and 2002-03 academic years. He has served on the editorial boards of numerous scholarly publications, and as an editor for the Administrative Science Quarterly and Research in Organizational Behavior. Sutton's honors include the
award for the best paper published in the Academy of Management Journal, induction into the Academy of Management Journals Hall of Fame, the Eugene L. Grant Award for Excellence in Teaching, the McGraw-Hill Innovation in Entrepreneurship
Pedagogy Award, the McCullough Faculty Scholar Chair from Stanford, and selection by Business 2.0 as a leading "management guru" in 2002. Sutton studies the links between managerial knowledge and organizational action, innovation, and
organizational performance. He as published over 90 articles and chapters in scholarly and applied publications. He has also published seven books and edited volumes. His research and opinions are often described in the press and he is
also currently writing a bi-monthly column for CIO Insight on organizational behavior. Sutton has been a guest on numerous radio and television shows.
Entrepreneurship is an emotional and economic roller coaster, says venture capitalist and serial entrepreneur Mark Suster. In this candid and informative lecture, Suster defies some of Silicon Valley's conventional wisdom. Based on his extensive experience with multiple companies, Suster shares his thoughts on the real day-to-day life of startups, smart ways to raise the right kind of funds, and offers honest advice in making your way as an entrepreneur.

rFactor - Getting started help :(
Hi All.
I finaly got my Logitech G27 yesterday. I have been playing alot of Live for speed over the years but i want to have something a little better now :)
So i had a look at rFactor and i seems nice. A bit of the same as LFS (Great online racing) but with better gfx.
But i cant seem to get a grip of what i need to race in rFactor - What do i need to download? It seems there are tons of downloads.
Any help would be nice :)
Re: rFactor - Getting started help :(
What do you prefer? Open wheel? NASCAR (tip tops?), touring cars? Rally?
You can start at rfactorcentral.com. They have a "Hall of Fame"
I prefer open wheel myself. I have CTDP's F1 2005, CartFactor 1998, Champcar 2006 and Champcar 2007-2008, and Indycar 1994-95.
Oh, and download tracks.
Re: rFactor - Getting started help :(
What shoud i buy? Is there a Pro license?
Re: rFactor - Getting started help :(
This isn't like iRacing, you just buy the game ALL mods are free
Re: rFactor - Getting started help :(
Not everyone is willing to pay $400 a year for something they will use twice a week.
Re: rFactor - Getting started help :(
Peter, did you get the original rfactor? or download the beta of rfactor2? rfactor one has many great mods. if you like open wheelers, as in F1, I like the F1 RFT 2010 mod, our league used it this year. They also have their own trackpack for it with all of the tracks. I would also highly recommend Enduracers Endurance series mod, it is fantastic. it has prototypes, GT1 and GT2 cars.

I just got my new sonata, a GLS with nav and upgraded dimension stro and I have a question.
Is it supposed to sound this bad? It's supposed to have a nice amp and sub, but it sounds like an AM radio, no matter what the source is - iPod XM or radio. Is there a setting that I'm missing? I've played with th EQ presets, adjusted the balance and fader. It still sounds like a cheap toy. I'm not an audiophile or anything, I'm pretty content with most factory stereos, but this sounds very dull. I'd almost believe they forgot to hook up the amp. Very little bass, no highs, and generally poor quality.
Also, is HD available yet?
Otherwise, this is the nicest car I've ever owned.
|I have tried the diferent eq settings, but I don't hear a huge difference, maybe I'll check out a different car at a dealer and see if there's a difference

Business Regulation and Consumer Protection:
Duplicate Programs To Identify Minority Businesses
PLRD-82-58: Published: Mar 23, 1982. Publicly Released: Mar 23, 1982.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 275-4268
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Federal agency activities designed to promote Government contracting with socially and economically disadvantaged businesses have, in some cases, resulted in duplicative efforts.
GAO reviewed programs in six agencies and found that duplication existed among three of them, including the: (1) Small Business Administration (SBA); (2) Minority Business Development Agency (MBDA); and (3) Department of Defense (DOD). However, because GAO surveyed only six Government agencies, the potential exists that similar activities are occurring in other agencies.
Recommendations for Executive Action
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: When we confirm what actions the agency has taken in response to this recommendation, we will provide updated information.
Recommendation: The Director of the Office of Management and Budget should direct his staff to meet with SBA, MBDA, and DOD officials to clarify authority to collect and maintain data on socially and economically disadvantaged businesses.
Agency Affected: Executive Office of the President: Office of Management and Budget
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: When we confirm what actions the agency has taken in response to this recommendation, we will provide updated information.
Recommendation: The Director of the Office of Management and Budget should survey all executive branch agencies to determine if similar activities are occurring, and if so, take appropriate action to eliminate duplication.

One of the victims told her guardian McGuin touched, kissed and licked her inappropriately, according to the police report. The other girl said McGuin kissed her on her buttocks. Police found McGuin at 4212 N Donald Ave. When they asked him what happened, he hung his head, looked at the ground and said he did bad things, according to the report. He was taken to the Oklahoma County jail, and his bail was set at $100,000.

Racial Biases Affect Who We Trust
(Ivanhoe Newswire) — Psychologists have found that people may make economic and trust decisions based on unconscious or unintentional racial biases, according to a new study. The study was conducted in the laboratory of New York University Professor Elizabeth Phelps.
"Decisions in the worlds of business, law, education, medicine, and even more ordinary daily interactions between individuals, all rely on trust," the researchers were quoted as saying. "In an increasingly globalized economy, that trust must be forged between individuals who differ in background, shared experiences, and aspirations."
"These results provide evidence that decisions we may believe to be consciously determined are, in fact, not entirely so, and suggest that this may have a very real cost for individuals and society," the researchers continued. "Whom we trust is not only a reflection of who is trustworthy, but also a reflection of who we are."
The field of psychology has generally concluded that there is a distinction between explicit and implicit mental processes, including attitudes, beliefs, and self-perceptions. Explicit mental processes involve intentional decisions or judgments while implicit mental processes occur relatively automatically and without awareness. In the PNAS study, the researchers focused on implicit social bias, a measure of how strongly one associates a concept — for instance, "pleasant" or "unpleasant" — with different social groups. Recent scholarship has shown implicit biases are pervasive and can predict social behaviors, including the decisions of highly-trained professionals such as doctors.
Employing a commonly used Implicit Association Test (IAT), researchers asked 50 racially diverse participants to rate the trustworthiness of individuals depicted in just under 300 photographs of Black, White, Asian, Hispanic, and mixed race men on a scale from one ("not-at-all trustworthy") to nine ("extremely trustworthy"). The participants were instructed to report their initial "gut impressions."
The researchers found that the participants' implicit race attitudes, measured in a subsequent test, predicted disparities in the perceived trustworthiness of Black and White faces. Individuals whose tests demonstrated a stronger pro-White implicit bias were more likely to judge White faces as more trustworthy than Black faces, and vice versa, regardless of that individual's own race or explicit beliefs.
According to the authors, the results suggest that implicit biases toward social groups may drive rapid evaluations of unfamiliar individuals in the absence of additional information, despite our conscious desires and intentions.
While the study's subjects in both experiments included multiple racial groups, the race of the participants did not account for the findings.
"There is not a simple correspondence between individuals' implicit racial attitudes and their own race," the researchers explained. "Implicit attitudes are thought to result from many sources beyond one's own race, including environmental exposure and personal interactions."

The decision remains optional, but recent history suggests that the use of visors on hockey helmets should be mandatory.
Simply put, the eyes are the most important part of a hockey player, and they must be protected.
Last night in a game between the Philadelphia Flyers and the New York Rangers, a Kimmo Timonen slap shot deflected off of a Flyer stick and straight up into the face of Rangers defenseman Marc Staal. Staal was left in a pool of his own blood on the ice, holding his right eye.
Staal left the game immediately after being hit directly in the eye, and is out indefinitely. According to a tweet by Nick Kypreos, the injury is not believed to be career-threatening.

The Flyers aren't very deep defensively right now and they can't afford to see another go down.
Late in the first period, Nicklas Grossmann appeared to have a lower body injury and did not return for the remaining two periods. It was a huge blow for the Flyers, who were out-scored 3-0 in the final 41 minutes of their 4-2 loss to the Rangers.
(Pictured: Nick Grossmann playing in front of Ilya Brygalov in the first period. Photo by Scott Levy/NHLI via Getty Images)
The Flyers travel to MSG to take on the Rangers. They look to attain their first three-game winning streak of the season against one of their biggest Atlantic Division rivals.
Former Flyers winger James van Riemsdyk returns to Philadelphia for the first time since being traded this off season for Luke Schenn. He already has a goal against his former team back in Toronto and he is looking for more.
After a 5-2 drubbing, the Flyers continue their home stand hosting the Winnipeg Jets. Jakub Voracek hopes to continue his hot streak as the Flyers attempt to reach .500 for the first time this season.
The Flyers were put in a bind and Kimmo Timonen knew it.
Using the tough situation the Flyers were in, Timonen used it to his advantage to sign a one-year, $6 million deal with the Flyers for the 2013-14 season. But for Timonen, next season could be his last.
"That's it. 99 percent sure that's my last," said the 37-year-old Finnish defenseman, who is in the middle of his 13th season in the NHL.
Timonen, who will be 38 next month, was going to be an unrestricted free agent at the end of this season before signing his extension. He was unsure whether or not this was going to be his last season in the NHL, but some conversations with general manager Paul Holmgren helped changed those feelings.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa. — Perhaps in the most unexpected fashion, Tom Sestito's pair of goals led the Flyers to a 2-1 victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning at the Wells Fargo Center.
The Flyers looked to erase the bad loss on January 27 by starting the top line right off the bat. They pressed hard, creating a few scoring chances including two by Tye McGinn on a deflection and a one-timer from the circle, but Lindback turned them both aside.
(Pictured: Ilya Bryzgalov makes a save. Photo by Len Redkoles/NHLI via Getty Images)
Saturday night against Carolina, the Flyers dressed Kimmo Timonen, Luke Schenn, Braydon Coburn, Nicklas Grossmann, Kurtis Foster, and Bruno Gervais as their defense.
All six shared one thing in common -- not a single one of them were drafted by the Flyers.
In fact, the Flyers have a consistent issue with things like that. Since the lost season of 2004-05, the Flyers have not gotten more than 150 games played from a defensemen they drafted and only one home grown defensemen has played more than 200 games in a Flyers uniform since that time, Randy Jones, an undrafted defender.
(Pictured: Braydon Coburn and Kimmo Timonen. Photo by Jim McIsaac/Getty Images)
The Flyers were a dismal 5-for-40 on the powerplay heading into the game, good for 24th in the league at 12.5%.
That number increased after the Flyers' offensive outburst with the man advantage and it helped them snap a three-game losing streak with their 5-3 win over the Carolina Hurricanes Saturday night.
The Flyers went 3-for-3 on the power play, by far their best special teams effort of the season.
(Pictured: Kurtis Foster celebrates after scoring the first goal of the game. Photo by Elsa/Getty Images)
NEW YORK -- It was too little too late for the Flyers.
The Rangers and Henrik Lundqvist staved off a resurgent Flyers team, holding on to win 2-1 in a wild game at Madison Square Garden. The score reflected their first meeting last Thursday, this time with a different result.
The Flyers were flat from the opening face off. The Rangers controlled the puck and the flow, keeping the action in the Flyers half of the ice.

Stephen Nessen, Reporter, WNYC News
Stephen Nessen reports for the WNYC Newsroom and can often be heard live on Morning Edition.
The NYPD and a national laboratory will be studying how chemical weapons could spread in the air and throughout the subway system this summer in what is the first study of its kind in such a large urban environment.
Researchers with the Brookhaven National Laboratory will release non-toxic, odorless gas in that mimics how chemical, biological and radiological weapons would disperse. About 200 sampling devices will be used to detect to the gas.
"We want to be able to determine how toxic material can flow through the transit system, it's one of the concerns that we've had for a while and how it flows on the streets of our city," Police Commissioner Ray Kelly said in a statement.
The tests will begin in July in all five boroughs in 21 subway stations. It is not expected to have an impact on commuting or other activity, police say.
Boston and Washington have conducted similar tests, but this will be the largest.
Old news.
These studies have been done not only in NYC, but in other subway systems around the world. The result: subways are great places for toxic chemicals to be spread. The wakes of air easily transport them throughout the system.
Apparently, they are using perfluorocarbon gas, a gas so "harmless" that Canada has it listed under Sched 1 of controlled substances due to it constituting a danger to human life or health:
"PFCs were added to Schedule 1 of CEPA 1999 in November2005 in order to enable the Government the use of a variety of preventive or control actions.... It must be determined that a substance is entering or may enter the environment in a quantity or concentration or under conditions that:
(a) have or may have an immediate or long-term harmful effect on the environment or its biological diversity;.
(b) constitute or may constitute a danger to the environment on which life depends; or.
(c) constitute or may constitute a danger in Canada to human life or health.
Based on an analysis of the existing science, most notably documented in the IPCC Third Assessment Report (TAR), there is sufficient evidence to conclude that, perfluorocarbons (PFCs) constitute or may constitute a danger to the environment on which life depends".
So much for a "harmless" gas!
It's taken THIS long to study?!!! The attack in Tokyo was almost 20 years ago. 9/11 was 12 years ago. Oh yeah, they're right on top of it! Nanny Bloomberg is too busy worrying about Big Gulps and salt and green lighting his real estate developer cronies. Unbelievable.

Although "the island" is no doubt a bastion of French cuisine, this cozy bistro across Lake Worth on the Clematis Street waterfront entices a lively crowd looking for a good meal with pretention checked at the door. The outdoor terrace can't be beat, and the fabulous modern French menu (revamped in early 2014), such as roasted sliced duck with truffled polenta rather than the ubiquitous à l'orange, are a delight. Save room for dessert: the house-made pudding Breton, a fluffy, raisin-accented brioche bread pudding paired with Crème Anglaise, could be straight out of a Parisian café.

Bladder Weakness & Incontinence
It's no laughing matter! They may be called "laughter leaks", but there's certainly nothing funny about them. As we get older, it's not unusual to experience the odd leak here are there. But that's not to say it should be accepted as inevitable.
It is currently estimated that there are three-six million people in the UK suffering from some form of incontinence (urge, stress, overactive bladder), and 25-30% of women aged between 45 and 65 are thought to be within this bracket[1][2]. Merely going to the toilet more than 8 times a day could mean you are one of them; catch it early!
"The best way to treat Bladder Weakness is to exercise your pelvic floor muscles"
Dr Chris Steel
Pelvic Pain
Here at Kegel8 we understand just how debilitating pelvic pain can be. That's why we've taken time to find a solution that works - no more nasty drugs to make you drowsy. The Kegel8 Ultra 20 blocks the pain signals being sent to the brain and stimulates the release of endorphins for natural pain relief. It also helps to relax pelvic floor muscles that become "locked" in pain. Treatment is easy too, if you aren't able to use a vaginal probe you can stimulate points outside your body using electrode pads for fast effective natural pain relief.
Did you know that it is estimated 1 in 2 women over the age of 50 will suffer some form of prolapse[3] - that's when, one or more of the pelvic organs descends into the vagina. Medical evidence suggests that pelvic floor exercises will actually improve the symptoms and in many cases can stop a prolapse from worsening.
"After vaginal surgery (hysterectomy, prolapse...) pelvic floor exercises are important for pelvic floor recovery and long-term pelvic support."
Michelle Kenway - Physiotherapist & Author
Lack of Sexual Sensation
Is something lacking in your sex life? Well, if it's sensation, the chances are you're not the only one who doesn't feel it. You need to "feel" it to orgasm (and you won't with a weak pelvic floor), he needs to 'feel' you to keep his erection and orgasm too. Lacklustre sex and reduced sensations are a passion killer, however, in a matter of weeks the Kegel8 Ultra 20 could inspire the best sex of both of your lives!
"A weak pelvic floor means less sensation for both parties. Women get bored; men get restless. Relationships lose potency in direct proportions to pelvic-floor entropy."
John Warlock, Sunday Times
How does Kegel8 work?
So, just how does the Kegel8 Ultra 20 help you to regain control over your body and start living life to the full?
It's simple; with the use of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) and electrical nerve stimulation. Electrical impulses are introduced to the body by a probe, or electrode pad, which stimulate a contraction within the pelvic floor. These contractions exercise the muscles and, as with any kind of exercise performed regularly, build strength and tone.
This electrical stimulation from the Kegel8 works 90% of the pelvic floor muscles, unlike manual "Kegels" which target only 40%. [4] Shocking, we know!
What you get
- Controller - with 20 pre-programmed sensation, exercise and pain-killing programmes
- Probe - nickel-free gold probe to help you achieve optimum results without nasty allergic reactions (10% women are nickel intolerant - have no fear - Kegel8 is here!)
- Electrode Pads - If you don't want to or can't use a vaginal probe we have the solution. Kegel8 is the only home-use electronic toner in the world to use outside stimulation with clinically proven results.
3 ways to use a Kegel8 Ultra 20
Insert a probe vaginally to exercise the pelvic floor muscles
Electrode pads on your ankle - ideal if you don't want to or can't use a probe
Electrode Pads on the base of your back perfect if you can't use a probe
- Sensation Test - designed to test your level of sensitivity so you can get the best from your Ultra 20.
- Pelvic Floor Exercise - progressive programmes for overall strengthening and a great maintenance programme to keep you strong.
- Improve Intimate Sensation - regain intimate sensation and confidence.
- Incontinence - wide range of clinically proven programmes to tackle your specific type of incontinence.
- Pain Relief – relaxation programmes to ease muscle cramps, pain and tightness.

Think the Kegel8 Ultra 20 sounds too good to be true? Well, it most certainly is good, but it's also true. A number of clinical studies have been undertaken to substantiate the efficacy of our programmes, all of which verify its use as a treatment/prevention for pelvic floor dysfunction and the associated symptoms.
What you could save
Who shouldn't use the Kegel8 Ultra 20?
You are pregnant*
Once you've given birth to your little bundle of joy you'll need the help of the Kegel8 Ultra 20 more than ever. But remember to wait until after your 6 week check-up.
You have a pacemaker*
It may be possible to use the Kegel8 Ultra 20 with your specific pacemarker, but please check with your healthcare provider.
You have a form of pelvic cancer*
Why not try the Kegel8 Trainer instead? It will also build strength and tone, but without the use of NMES.
*Unless advised to do so and under medical supervision

I made an appointment for physiotherapy with my Doctor's surgery and after consultation it was suggested I was put on medication for an over-active bladder and to stop going to the toilet "just in case". So after 2 months of medication, retraining my bladder, pelvic floor exercises manually and with the Kegel , I am now pad free for the first time in years. I can cough, sneeze, laugh etc and as long as I prepare beforehand by holding my muscles, there's no leakage. I was also found to have a slight prolapse of the bladder which should improve in time as long as I keep up with the exercises using the Kegel and also manually. My physio graded my pelvic floor muscles at minus 4, they grade up to 5, I am so happy with the results
I'm 59 yrs old,
Dear ecar
Thank you for your feedback, this will help other women to make the change, get strong and ditch the pads for a happier healthier life!
Keep exercising!

- It's awesome! Review by mimi
Product Rating
I went to several doctors who all confirmed to me that I had a mild cystocele and rectocele, and that I had to do kegels, and that maybe I would get better. I was really at a low point, I couldn't walk for too long without feeling a balloon coming out from down there, couldn't squat and give my kids a bath, couldn't carry anything or I would leak, couldn't be intimate with my husband… It had completely alienated me. I was doing kegels all day, and still there was very little improvement, I was really discouraged and started to look into surgeries.
My pelvic physical therapist told me that it seemed like I had nerve damage on one side, and that I had a very weak pelvic floor, and she mentioned something about e-stim, and that she had ordered hers from the UK (I live in the US). I decided that before I go ahead with surgery, I should give this a try, and lo and behold, after a few weeks I could sneeze and cough without a mess, I could walk and stand for hours, and I could squat! It's incredible how you take those simple things for granted when they're there.
I was using it every day, twice a day for about 5 weeks, then slowed down to a few times a week, but realized that I wasn't really progressing anymore, so went back to exercising daily. About two months in, I ordered the pelvic trainer so I could track my progress and I was shocked to see I was only a 2 on the scale after all this work. I started taking vitamin D and collagen vitamins. My doc had tested my vitamin D on my 6 week post-partum app and told me I was deficient, but I didn't take the vitamin since I was a new mom and not thinking it was a big deal. I never thought that it was related to my pelvic floor dysfunction until I saw they were selling it on this website.
Now, I have been exercising with kegel8 for almost 3 months and my life has changed dramatically… I am now a 5 on the trainer scale (so still room to grow) I am more active, I have NO accidents whatsoever, my rectocele is also so much better. Intercourse is getting back to normal!!!… It's like night and day. I would strongly recommend this product, its easy to use, you just need patience and consistency.
Good luck ladies, hope it all works out. " (Posted on 3 February 2015)

- things are worse :( Review by Cat
Product Rating
I have been using my Kegel8 Ultra 20 twice a day since over 6 weeks now and all I notice is that things are getting worse and I am VERY unhappy about that :(
For whatever reason I still do believe it may work 'one day'... that's why I don't give up yet, but I'm a bit anxious about how things may turn out.
But my biggest disappointment is about the instruction-booklet, especially about choosing your program. The explanations are extremely poor, yet confusing.
I really couldn't figure out which program would be best for me, and I believe it is not really my job to do hours and hours of endless research across the website or blog or hundreds of reviews or FAQs to get the answer to this basic question.
One could expect better!
Also the drawings are very unprecise and confusing (couldn't understand, for example, if I have to put 2 electrodes on one ankle or one on each (but which position then?) or 2 on each).
I also have a question:
as I have little time, I use the Kegel8 whilst sleeping (when I go to bed at night I use to be really tired, so I cannot help but fall asleep pretty fast / and in the morning I'm setting the alarm 45min before I have to get up and then I fall asleep again too). As far as I understand there should be no problem with this, as we haven't to concentrate whilst using it, but can you actually confirm this fact?
So, sorry to give only 2 stars at the moment.
This hopefully might change in the near future...
Dear Cat
Thank you for your feedback - I do understand your frustration with the time in improvement, but as you say you have only been using it for 6 weeks - we do ask that you use it for at least the 12 weeks - your body has weakened over many years and it is vital that you rebuild your strength slowly and safely.
You mention that you find the instructions for choosing a programme not very useful - we have created a Quick Start Guide http://www.kegel8.co.uk/downloads/instructions/en/9475-IFUS.pdf here programmes are grouped (incontinence, sensation, prolapse) so that it is easier to narrow down the programmes.
Over the years Kegel8 has pioneered the inclusion of new programmes for all the major pelvic floor conditions - we have increased the number and choice of programmes from 11 to 20 to reflect this as new Clinical data is published (we have to use published clinical data for our programmes to comply with our medical certification)
With the diagrams and drawing we try to be precise as possible, but when referring to the placement of skin electrodes there is no exact science, because all our bodies are different but I have noted your comments. The electrodes as shown in the diagram on page 25 of the instructions show two electrodes on one ankle and this is how it should be used.
When using Any NMES machine we recommend you leave 8 hours in-between all treatments. this is crucial in the recuperation and strengthening of the pelvic floor muscles. An exhausted pelvic floor muscle will not get strong.
I hope this is of help, please continue with your routine and by the middle e of January I am sure you will notice definite improvements - when we hope that you will return to give the Kegel8 a 5 star review.

Sandusky city manager Matt Kline said the quality of the city staff must become "more professional" when he told city commissioners he decided to hire an outside consulting firm to fill a newly created part-time management position. The new part-time job comes with a $90,000 part-time salary and the firm, John Hancock & Associates, will oversee the city engineering, economic development and planning departments, Kline said.
The city manager said the current heads of those departments are each talented in their own way, but his decision seems to imply those three managers can't get the job done.
If there are city employees who cannot do the jobs they were hired to do and inadequate to the tasks that need to be addressed, perhaps their continued employment should be questioned. We agree city management could use a solid infusion of "professionalism," but this approach sounds like an expensive Band-Aid to cover up a gaping wound. Does it make sense to lay off some employees, reassign others and bring on another layer of bureaucracy without addressing the performance problems that apparently exist? And, do we understand correctly that we will continue to pay some of the employees that need "more professionalism" at the same rate for having less responsibility?
This city government, with Kline at the helm and ex officio mayor Craig Stahl whispering in his ear, can't quite seem to get the job done across the spectrum of city services, from housing rehabilitation to grass cutting. Being responsible with taxpayer funds is not Kline's and Stahl's strong suit. They dodged and weaved on the city budget, going from a self-assured, "trust us" swagger to panic-in-the-streets, shoot-from-the-hip city layoffs that don't inspire confidence nor reassure us that "professional" management practices are being used.
We fear Kline continues to stumble into mistakes the city cannot afford, and bringing in a management firm at the approximate annual payroll cost for a city manager might be just the latest best evidence of Kline's own inadequacies. City commissioners, unfortunately, have not taken the time or had the courage to conduct a true job performance review, and the only documented record (other than a lawsuit and a yearlong estimated $1 million civil service hearing), is an all but glowing one-page review with no substance, no direction and absent of goals that city commissioners rubber-stamped last year.
So much for responsible government.
Commissioners have a responsibility to take a much closer look at how it makes sense for Kline to pick and choose layoffs without a defined plan, on the one hand, and hire an expensive outside management firm to take on job functions the top manager maybe ought to be doing, on the other.
Figure that out, commissioners, and get back to us voters to explain how that works.

In Flash Professional CS5: Creating a Simple Game for Android Devices, author Paul Trani shows how to translate existing Flash skills from the web to mobile devices while designing a game in Flash and publishing it as an AIR for Android app. The finished application includes collision detection, random enemy creation and movement, shooting capabilities, multiple levels, and even a high score screen. This course also goes beyond game functionality and shows how to use mobile capabilities such as the accelerometer and gestures to control graphics, use the hardware keys to activate menus, and also how to optimize content so it plays well on mobile devices. Also included are instructions for distributing an app through the Android Market. Exercise files are included with the course.
The great thing about Android devices is that they have physical buttons that you can use to add additional functionality to your game. Those buttons include the Options menu, the Search button, as well as the Back button. And probably the most common used is going to be that Options button, or Options menu, because again, you can use it to add, for instance, this Options menu that I have right here. So just turn off the introScreen, and you will see it right there. It's called Options menu. And that's what I want to toggle on and off when you click on that Options key on the actual device.
And I am going to add some functionality by using code snippets. So refer to the Code Snippets video if you don't have this Mobile Game folder. And if I scroll down, Mobile menu key, that's what I want to use. I will just double-click on it to add that functionality. And now I can put everything in its proper place. So all variables actually are going to be at the top, so I will take this first line, I'll cut it, scroll up to the top, and paste it about line 22.
Paste it right in there. So, this is a Boolean, so it's a true/false statement, and it's set to true by default. So it is hidden by default. In fact, the optionsmenu, you can see its visibility is set to false. So, hiddenOptions is set to true by default, so let's keep that in mind. Scroll back down and again I am just going to go ahead and move up all of this code, because sure enough, I want it to start right here after line 440. In fact, I'll add my first comment right in here: When any hardware key is pressed...
Well then, go ahead and fire off this function. So again, KEY_UP for anything, then go ahead and do this optionsKey function. Okay. So right in here, you can see Options menu. You can use this keyCode, 16777234, or a keyboard menu. Now if you use keyboard menu, it actually will throw you an error in Flash, so that's why I am going to use 16777234. Okay. But I want to add to this as well because I don't have an options key on my desktop computer.
So I want to go ahead and add two vertical pipes, those vertical slashes, and what I want to do is this adds an Or statement, so I can say, if this is pressed, or, and I'll just copy this line right here. 13. And what 13 is is the Enter key on the keyboard. All right! So again, for development purposes, that's why I want to add this in.
So when I test it on my desktop, I just want to make sure everything is working just fine. Okay. So if I hit the Enter key or hit the Options button right here, show the optionsmenu. That's its instance name and by default, go ahead and show it. So if it's equal to true, then place the optionsmenu on top of everything else. That's what this setChildIndex does. Because remember, all of those graphics for the game-- the enemies, the lasers, even my players-- they are all pulled from the library and added directly to this stage.
And they're added on top of one another. So I want to make sure this menu is on top of all of that stuff by adding a setChildIndex, making sure it's at the very top. But again, right here, I am going to copy this optionsmenu instance name and paste it over instance name here. I'll do the same thing here. So again, turn it on, put it on top, turn it on, give it an EventListener. This EventListener fires off this exitApp function right down here. And again, this is commented out as well. This is using NativeApplication functionality.
This is going to go ahead and exit out of the application when they go ahead and click on the menu. Now, of course, while I am testing this out, what I want to do is I want to add a trace statement that says exitApp, just so I know it's working on the desktop. So I've added that trace statement in. It's looking good so far. I can move on. Within this else statement, I can go ahead and say "If the optionsmenu is visible, then hide it..." And that's what this does. I'll copy this optionsmenu name and paste it right in there. It turns it off, removes that EventListener.
And then lastly this is just the toggle. It turns it on and off. The hiddenOptions makes it true or false each time around. So that's how we have our Toggle button created, which is our optionsmenu. And I am just going to go ahead and test this out on my device. I am going to press the Enter key. So I'll just do a Control > Test Movie. I am going to test it in Flash. Here is my game. Click Play. You saw it work. You saw the menu up here on my desktop.
So the next step is to go ahead and test this out on my device. So I am just going to go ahead and put this on a Droid 2. Here is with the game on a Droid 2. I am going to go ahead and click Play. So I am able to play the game. Then I can hit the Options button. It shows the Options menu. I can press the Options button again and the Options menu is hidden. So again, that's how you can tap into the actual hardware keys of the device to extend the functionality of your game.

Also as the name entails they do weekly interviews over the phone on YouTube and they post it on I-Tunes. This interview with Fred Ottman like all of there others, this one is very in-depth going into everything that happened in Fred's career. They even go into his family tree if you don't already know what Hall of Famer is a part of his family. This is by far one of the most laid back interviews I have heard them do. Great Job by Steve & The Scum and Fred Ottman is a very relaxed & nice guy listen to interview if you don't believe me.
"WGD Weekly is by far the sensation sweeping the Wrestling Radio Nation"

Kent State Student Named Top Finalist in National Awards ProgramPosted Jan. 23, 2012 | Britney Beaman
The William Randolph Hearst Foundation awarded a Kent State University broadcast journalism student the top television finalist award, along with a $2,600 scholarship.
Jeannette Reyes, a Kent State senior and TV2 reporter and anchor, submitted two of her broadcast stories to the Journalism Awards Program's Broadcast Features Competition without realizing the award's prestige.
"I didn't know much about it," Reyes says. "I found out through my professors and went from there."
She completed two broadcast features, and with some help from her professors, she entered into what she thought was your average scholarship competition.
Little did she know she would receive the $2,600 award for having the first place feature out of 73 entrants from 43 different schools.
"I am still surprised and I wish I knew what did it," Reyes says. "It's a really exciting way to end my year, since I'm graduating in May."
The story was an investigative piece about online job scams, featuring a woman who lost more than $20,000 to a fraudulent online company. Reyes dug deep to reveal this woman's story, how scams happen and how to look for signs and avoid them.
This is just the first step for Reyes, though. To move on to the semifinals, she'll have to submit two more features that she must complete before March 2. She says she's nervous about the next round because she isn't sure what her next stories will be about, but she's sure something will snag her interest in time.
Five students will be chosen after semifinals to move forward to the championship in San Francisco. The winners will receive scholarships and matching grants for their schools.
The William Hearst Foundation added the Broadcast News Competition to its Journalism Awards in 1988. The foundation offers scholarships for writing, photojournalism and multimedia.

To Your Measure
Custom Made Pants For Women, Made In The USA
Call 585-473-6023
9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Eastern Time
Can't find pants that fit? You've come to the right place.
Our unique measurement process insures a great fit and quick turn around.
Select your pant style below:
Why do women settle for poorly fitting, off-the-rack, unflattering mall pants?
Now you can have custom, made-to-order, get-it-your-way pants. In fact, you'll save money because you won't be wasting money on unflattering off-the-rack pants.
In this done-to-your-specification, internet savvy age, you should be able to get great fitting pants made exactly for you. Up until now, you couldn't. All you could do was spend hours shopping at the mall and settle for "good enough" or take your pants to a tailor and spend even more money getting them altered to fit you.
Now there is a better way. You can take your measurements in the privacy of your home, send them on-line in less than 15 minutes and have your custom tailored pants delivered to you in about 2 weeks. This is what our customers are saying about us:
"For the past several years, I have not found pants in stores that met my criteria for a good fit. To Your Measure made me very good lined pants that sit at my waist and are really comfortable." — HS - Rochester, NY.
"Jane's service is unbelievable. Jane went above and beyond to make sure that I was satisfied with my order." — ETP - New Brunswick, NJ
"I like the material, its color, softness, the way it feels, the double button and the comfort. I also really like the way they fit my legs and my waist." — CM - Lynbrook, NY
If you would like to have all this, go to our collection page and select the style and fabrics you want now. We also offer financing through PayPal's Buy Now, Pay Later" program.
Here's how the fit process works:
If you live in the Rochester, NY area or the Venice/Sarasota, FL area, call for a personal fit appointment at 585-473-6023. You can stop in and see our fabric samples and pants styles. If you choose to place an order, we will take your measurements for you.
If you live out of area, take your measurements using our step-by-step video. We will use your measurements to make a muslin. A muslin is a "first draft" of your pants made of cotton. The muslin will be mailed to you for you to try on. You will then correct the fit by pinning the muslin in the area(s) that do not fit to your satisfaction.
When we receive the muslin back from you, we alter the muslin according to your requested changes. We then use the muslin as a pattern to cut your pants. The muslin is kept in our files for your future orders.
If you would like to make changes to the style you select, i.e. add or delete pockets, move zippers, raise or lower the waistline, these changes can be incorporated into your pattern.
If you are not 100% satisfied with the fit of your custom made pants, we will alter them to your satisfaction or your money will be refunded to you.
Get started by visiting our collection of pants styles now or get free fabric samples so you can feel the quality of the fabric before you place your order. To get free fabric samples click here.

While DRI2 PRIME has led to Optimus-like support for laptops with NVIDIA/Intel GPU combinations, one of the problems making this technology less beneficial is the lack of dynamic power management handling.
