Pangasinan is champion
LINGAYEN—Samantha Glo Revita swept the field in chess and John Enrico Vazquez led a slew of victories in karatedo that boosted Pangasinan to the overall championship of the Northern Luzon qualifying leg of the Philippine Olympic Committee-Philippine Sports Commission Batang Pinoy Games yesterday.
Revita, a Palarong Pambansa gold medalist, bagged her fourth gold after topping the girls' individual rapid against Baguio City's Jee-Ann Faye Barry at the end of competitions.
The 13-year-old chesser from Rosales town earlier dominated the standard and blitz events while helping her team capture the team blitz title.
Revita, a freshman at Rosales National High School, also boasts five gold medals from overseas tournaments in Indonesia, Vietnam and Singapore.
Vasquez pocketed a third gold in the boys' -39 kg kumite over teammate Narayana Mesina as Pangasinan captured 15 karatedo golds overall. John Matthew Manantan and Gilbert Arellano also finished with two golds each.
Arellano and Mesina joined forces with Vasquez in the team kata while Manantan, who won the boys' individual kata, proved successful in the -63kg kumite. Vasquez and Arellano also came out triumphant in the -44kg and -35kg kata, respectively.
Also winning for Pangasinan were Aldrin Christian Yu Brito (boys' -35kg) and Zabala (girls' -47kg) in the advanced kata while Jude Uson (boys' -35kg), John Jerick Obra (boys' -49kg) and John Marc Claveria (boys' -58kg) downed their opponents in the kumite.
Backed by Gov. Amado T. Espino Jr., the host province overtook Baguio City in the overall race by hauling a total of 70 gold medals on top of 80 silver and 80 bronze medals.
Baguio City, which shone in taekwondo, swimming and arnis, wound up with a gold-silver-bronze output of 65-56-48 while Malolos, Bulacan, was third overall with a 16-11-10 output after striking in badminton and swimming.
Siblings John Matthew Bernardo and Paola Beatriz Bernardo of Malolos ruled the boys' and girls' badminton singles. Paola Bernardo later paired with Chanel Lunod for the girls' doubles title.
In the baseball national finals, Tarlac demolished Manila, 19-9, for the title.
Baguio had eight gold medals in full-contact arnis through featherweight Lira Acachang, lightweight Lorraine Anne Carino, bantamweight John Monroe Yalong and flyweight Eric Cagawa.
The leg produced standout swimmers Jamleth Villanueva of Olongapo City, Gwyneth Cawaling of La Union and Baguio's Jenkins Labao, who captured six gold medals each, and track and field quintuple gold medalists Sisa Carunungan and Leah Taltala of Baguio.

Bring your own device: The latest business revolution
What do you do next?
Your business will eventually have to deal with BYOD, if it hasn't already. It will be better served if you proceed in an organized way. Instituting a BYOD policy will make your workers partners in your communication and data-sharing efforts. Open a dialogue and gather their input.
Understand that the more inclusive a BYOD policy is the more upfront effort and investment will be required. Software is available to smooth the going, but it has a price tag.
Finally, BYOD may not be for every business, even where all participants are willing. Where private information, such as medical and financial records, is involved, the liability risks may be too great.
Don't be blinded by the promise of cost savings from workers providing their own devices. Without proper planning and the appropriate policies in place, the potential risks outweigh the potential benefits.

Rains may have arrived in the city, but contractors appointed by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation for the purpose are yet to get on with their job. Reason: despite the civic standing committee approving appointment of contractors last week, the municipal administration apparently is yet to issue work orders to the agencies concerned.
As on June 16, the roads department had received around 90 potholes complaints over the past two days, sources claimed.
"First, the proposal was tabled before members of standing committee late. Now, there is a delay in issuing work orders. If rains cause potholes, tax-payers will have no option but to deal with craters on the streets," a source in the department said.
The BMC has been using pothole tracking system www.voiceofcitizen.com to register complaints pertaining pits on city roads since November 2011. Civic engineers are supposed to assign potholes filling jobs to contractors through the system.
What will substantiate the claims made by sources, as on Monday, the potholes tracking system displayed the department received 16 potholes, while none of the craters was either planned for treatment or attended by BMC.
"The civic body has received more than 90 grievances. Only 16 could be seen online. But, given there is no work order issued to the contractors, the work cannot go ahead even though the contractors posses login to the system," the source said.
The source added majority of the complaints the corporation received are made by public, while the BMC's road engineers are going slow with their job. Interestingly, additional municipal commissioner SVR Srinivas, who heads the roads department, had last year announced it is the onus of the road engineers, more than 250 in number, to report potholes and not public. "Public too can report it. But it is responsibility of the engineers primarily," he had said.
Meanwhile, when asked about delay in work, Srinivas admitted that the department was yet to ink agreement with the contractors. "However, I have given oral instructions to the contractors to get on with their jobs. Rather, the department has already started allotting them pothole-filling assignments," the official claimed.
Srinivas added he will check if the engineers are reporting potholes are not as is expected from them.
First showers open up roads
According to sources, the BMC received over 90 potholes complaints following two-three days rainfall. As one June 16, the potholes tracking system though showed only 16 potholes complaints online. Out of these, no pothole was planned/attended by civic contractors

Moore's Law
• Moore's Law states that, "The number of transistors per square inch on an integrated chip doubles every 18 months."
• This law is important for business professionals because the ratio of price to performance of computers has fallen periodically.
• The cost of data communications and data storage essentially becomes zero.
• Business professionals have to assess how to handle their information technology, especially the hardware that they will be purchasing.
How should business professionals relate to emerging information technology:
• Technology is increasing at a rapid rate and new and innovative concepts are being used such as cloud computing.
• A business professional has to be able to assess, evaluate, and apply merging information technology to business in order to effectively capitalize on the new concepts that are becoming widely popular.
Job security:
• Job security is defined as a marketable skill and the courage to use it.
Reich's skills:
• Abstract reasoning is the ability to make models and manipulate them in different ways.
• System thinking is the ability to model different components of a system by connecting the various inputs and outputs into a single whole that reflects the structure and dynamics of the phenomenon observed.
• Collaboration is when multiple people come together to achieve a common goal, result, or work product.
• Experimentation is being able to make a well informed analysis of a situation in order to evaluate possible solutions.
• All of these skills relate to job security because they help form an innovative employee who can provide valuable insight to a company project or goal.
Information systems job opportunities are on the rise, especially since it is a tradable job that doesn't rely on being in one particular location. Information systems jobs require technical and non-technical skills so there are many positions present in this field.

The office can be turned into a promotional avenue by simply making it a place where employees are recognized, rewarded and clients exposed to promotional content. One may choose a variety of materials for awards but silver remains the most remarkable gift to appreciate valuable clients and employees. Promotional silver awards are mostly effective due to the unique appreciation accorded to silver objects. In fact, they give the company a high review when they are used to make plaques displayed in the office. They exhibit great dedication and a value for the work being executed by the company especially when gifted to highly achieving employees.
Promotional products can also be in form of custom logo silver awards. Customizing silver awards makes the already fashionable silver gift to acquire a more intense purpose. Personalized silver awards can be engraved with the companys logo and gifted to employees. Silver pens, rings, and bookmarks engraved with the company logo and even the mission statement can be distributed to employees around the office. These items instill a sense of belonging in employees and heighten a clients loyalty when given as a gift.
Companies have embraced the culture of employee recognition and often host recognition days where outstanding employees are rewarded. Custom logo silver recognition awards are an authentic promotional item. These awards are quite special because they are awarded to only few individuals who have been exceptional in their performance. On such an occasion, they can have their desk accessories customized with the company logo and message. Pens, key rings, clocks, paper clips and cardholders with the company logo and the name of the deserving employee can make for great recognition within the company. When such accessories are customized uniquely, other employees will get envious and seek to work better for equivalent recognition.
If in search of the best gift ideas for deserving employees and loyal customers, silver company awards are suitably interesting. These awards can be effective promotional products as well as gifts. Silver is a unique material whose elegance and long lasting nature makes them fashionable. Furthermore, when modeled into special designs and engraved with messages, they become ideal for recognizing employees, commemorating company anniversaries and celebrating other achievements in the office. As incentives, silver awards will be received with immense joy and result to increased performance, productivity, and big returns. Ideally, investing in such awards must play a critical part in the company's policies if success in the corporate world is to be attained effortlessly.

Posted this on December Baby but it think I would get more answers by posting it on the right group...
Just want to get some perspective...
Stereotypes and morals are suppost to be the main things we teach our children.
If you see a "bumb" looking person aproaching your child you will most likely tell him/her to not go near "those types" of people, right?
Now the following is based on religion..."heaven is good hell is bad"
So how about naming your first boy Satan Luxifer?
"The original Hebrew term, satan, is a noun from a verb meaning primarily to, "obstruct, oppose," as it is found in Numbers 22:22, 1 Samuel 29:4, Psalms 109:6. Ha-Satan is traditionally translated as "the accuser," or "the adversary." The definite article "ha-", English "the", is used to show that this is a title bestowed on a being, versus the name of a being. Thus this being would be referred to as "the Satan" or the opposer"
"In Latin, from which the English word is derived, Lucifer means "light-bearer" (from the words lucem ferre). It was the name given to the dawn appearance of the planet Venus, which heralds daylight. For this meaning, English generally uses the names "Morning Star" or "Day Star", and rarely "Lucifer"."
just trying to get a wider perspective on this name...

What is COPPA?
The Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA), and the COPPA Rule, 16 C.F.R. Part 312, promulgated by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) under that Act, require that website operations and online services providers take specific precautions when collecting personal information from children under the age of 13. Specifically, the COPPA Rule applies to any operators of websites or online services that either (a) direct their site or services to children under the age of 13; or (b) have actual knowledge that they are collecting personal information from children under the age of 13. It requires those operators to give notice to and get verifiable consent from parents before collecting, using or disclosing such personal information. The Rule also imposes obligations on operators to keep the information they collect from children secure and limits the amount of personal information that children must submit to participate in online activities to what is reasonably necessary for participation.
What has changed in the COPPA rule?
In December 2012 the FTC issued an amended COPPA Rule to address ever-evolving technology, including mobile devices and website analytic tools, and changes in the way children use and access the internet, including the increasing use of social networking sites by children. The amended Rule, which goes into effect July 1, 2013, clarifies who is covered by the Rule, what qualifies as "personal information," and what methods for providing notice and obtaining verifiable consent are appropriate. Below is a summary of the most important changes in the amended COPPA Rule and some tips for making sure you comply with its requirements.

Brother, Can You Spare Some Cells to Fight Kidney Cancer?
Sept. 13, 2000 -- A form of treatment that works against some types of cancer that affect the immune system and the blood system may also be effective against kidney cancer that has spread to other parts of the body, an extremely difficult condition to treat with conventional therapies.
The experimental therapy, which uses donated cells from siblings to boost the patient's disease-fighting immune system, may also prove to be effective for treatment of other forms of cancers, suggest researchers.
Typically, half of all people with kidney cancer that has spread to other organs live less than one year from the time the disease is diagnosed. But in a study of 19 patients who received a transplant of immune cells from a closely matched sister or brother, nine of the patients were still alive more than one year later and two of them had no recurrence of disease more than two years after being treated.
Of the remaining 10 patients, two died from problems from the transplant, and eight from progression of the cancer. The results are published in the Sept. 14 issue of The New England Journal of Medicine.
Although the findings are encouraging, they are still preliminary. "This is a small group of patients and we have to very cautious about this," study co-author W. Marston Linehan, MD, chief of urologic surgery at the National Cancer Institute, tells WebMD. "Our follow-up is short -- it's only two-and-a-half years or so, but we are encouraged to date by the duration of response and by its magnitude. However, we're also cautious about the fact that we had two deaths in this trial ... and we're working hard to do better and prevent that in the future."
Kidney cancer can sometimes be cured by removing the kidney, if it's caught before it spreads. But kidney cancer that has spread removes that option, and it also usually does not respond to conventional treatments such as chemotherapy or radiation. Other researchers have shown that advanced kidney cancer can be effectively treated in only about 10-20% of all patients with drugs that boost the body's own immune defenses against cancer, a type of treatment known as immunotherapy.

Closedness of the Solution Map in Quasivariational Inequalities of Ky Fan Type

This paper is mainly concerned with the stability analysis of the set-valued solution mapping for a parametric quasivariational inequality of Ky Fan type. Perturbations are here considered both on the bifunction and on the constraint map which define the problem. The bifunction is assumed to be either pseudomonotone or quasimonotone. This fact leads to the definition of four different types of solution: two when the bifunction is pseudomonotone, and two for the quasimonotone case. These solution sets are connected each other through two Minty-type Lemmas, where a very weak form of continuity for the bifunction is employed. Using these results, we are able to establish some sufficient conditions, which ensure the closedness and the upper semicontinuity of the maps corresponding to the four solution sets.

Dear Soul,
i 'v read this poem, and in its content and intention, the verse justified its objective. But, your soul in its soothing flow is not much present, when considering the structure and the deliberate, forced thought process you had to invest in sticking to the predefined specific intention of the theme. forgive me, but, that is what i felt. A hard work is very much visible, not a due natural blend of imagination with emotions and passions; as we all have learnt since ages what poesy should itself be. God bless, keep penning to the core of the purest wilderness of your thoughts, experience, imaginations and nature. Rgds. (Report) Reply

If Life was as simple
If life was as simple
As ABC
I would climb on
My bicycle and
Ride to the sea
I would rip off
My clothes,
Unbuckle my boots,
Run naked over
Lapping waves,
Ignore all the looks
I would swim out
On the ocean,
Swim back twice as fast,
Tie a scarf around
My waist,
Forget the troubled past
I'd cycle back
To Belfast, walk
Naked through the town,
Convince the people
I'm the best, a
Prophet of renown
I'd be like John
The Baptist,
My scarf around
My loins,
I'd shout my
Head off
Through the streets,
And dodge the
Flying coins
I know they'd think
I'm crazy,
I know they'd
Want me dead,
Because I know
They don't like change,
I know I'd lose my head (Report) Reply

DC Comics Cinematic Universe in addition to other movie/tv properties will assist on top of HBO streaming. Up Up and Away.
- As content creator, TWX sits at the top of value chain of the entertainment industry
- HBO's potential is not full realized
- A complete house of entertainment - capable of launching its own subscription service
- Expanding margins
- CEO Jeff Bewkes is prudent capital allocator with an eye for content
- After stint of divestment, TWX's portfolio is more content and TV-audience focused which will reinforce its position in the dynamic entertainment industry.
Although I see the stock outperforming in the market, it is only for a short time frame. Television networks are slowly losing revenue from advertisers on primetime television as video-streaming sites (such as Netflix, HULU, etc.) are increasing in popularity.
Google fiber not strong enough until they support more markets. Streaming model and product set strong.
Expense mgmt will reduce costs in 2015
Despite the illegaility of computer generated NSA scripts to entertain the masses they will lose the masses needed to sustain their meteoric rise from the 50's
HBO is the new netflix with a stronger original content collection. Once they find a way to monetize HBO go this stock has no where to go but up.
Time Warner's CEO just announced that they are considering building out HBO GO to include content from their other properties (Turner and Warner Brothers), and maybe even content from competitors. Just adding the content from TBS, TNT, CN, WB network, the CW etc., that they flat out OWN will turn an already important streaming content provider into a giant. Watch them grow!
Gabelli says it is worth $135 in 3-4 years
TWX is doing the right things - spinning off the publishing unit, amping the digital content with HBO GO and producing great films every year alongside their extremely popular shows like Game of Thrones.. If they continue to adapt to changing viewership methods and produce further hit shows they can rake in the profits for investors!
I believe Time Warner's movie studio's slate will be popular over the next year, and will thus contribute positively to its stock price.
Magic Formula 12/13/2013
Undervalued with strong growth as a dominant content owner, excellent balance sheet and cash flow with a decent, growing dividend.
digital content. Ultraviolet specifically
Their customers hate them. Alternatives will become increasingly abundant. Google's high-speed fiber effort are backed with billions in cash and will put a huge dent in TW business.
Buy TWX pre-spinoff for three reasons:
1. May be mis-valued due to the publishing segment
2. Publishing segment is also worth keeping (Times Magazines, Fortune, etc.) Although revenues are decreasing, it is not crashing and burning. It may actually be better taken care of as an independent entity post-spinoff
3. Buying TWX post-spinoff may deteriorate the gains of buying it pre-spinoff.
Mgmt doing the right thing in changing landscape.
They plan on cutting costs and other reasons, they have cash.
If HBO becomes a service offered to non cable subscribers than I feel Time Warner will jump in valuation quite a bit. Also If they continue producing quality movies I think they will steadily rise above the competition.

Additional notes:
- App 2 SD: some applications are not suited for installation on external storage (SD). This often applies when services, alarms, widgets and auto start functionality is involved. Batteryminder includes all of the above, which is also the reason why it does not allow for external storage (SD) installation.
- Time estimate accuracy: Batteryminder bases remaining time estimate calculations on battery status reports gathered from the Android system. As a result, time estimates will become much more accurate over time and also less fluctuating. Please be patient for improved accuracy. Please also note that clearing the battery data history will force time estimate calculation to start over from zero.
- 10% increments: due to some manufacturers/devices (e.g. Motorola Droid) only reporting battery status information in 10% increments, Batteryminder will not be able to display more accurate battery level information in the status bar icon and similar.
- Momentary estimates: The momentary/historical average setting toggles between trying to answer one of the following two questions; "How much longer would my device be able to run, given that I keep using it the same way as I am at this very moment?" (momentary) or "If I use my device about the same way as I usually do during a normal day, how much longer would my battery last?" (historical average).
- Battery health: Please note that battery health has nothing to do with the current battery level/charge (%). Battery health tries to say when it's time to replace an old, soon broken, battery.
Keywords: battery, monitor, level, charge, power, indicator, alert, alarm, time, estimate, health, temp, energy, notification, drain, save, life, temperature, meter, remaining, graph, task, manager, widget, theme, customizable, juice

Carpet Cleaning Business Stays Ahead With Rainbow International®
David Ondieki is a veteran in the carpet cleaning industry. More than 25 years ago, he started a cleaning business in Ft. Worth, Texas and has been in the service industry ever since. However, 10 years ago David's business made a shift, and he became part of a network of Rainbow International franchisees.
How did you get into the carpet cleaning business?
I had my cleaning business for several years, and we were doing pretty well. We had two trucks on the road. However, I got to the point where we were tapped out, so to speak. We were doing every service call we could on the cleaning side, which is why I decided to make a switch to restoration as well.
How did you find out about Rainbow International? What sparked your interest in the company?
I was actually looking at several different business concepts and different services. I had a client that I had worked for who referred me to the company. He gave my name to The Dwyer Group®, and I received a phone call.
What about Rainbow International stood out to you?
One of the things I looked at was the relationship. What is the philosophy? I am a Christian. When I visited The Dwyer Group headquarters, I was interested in the values of the company. When you marry somebody, you want to have something to build on. The same is true with a franchise. From what I saw, the Code of Values® to the attitudes of the people there really attracted me to Rainbow International. Other franchisors didn't look to me to care about their franchisees as much as The Dwyer Group and Rainbow International did. I just felt comfortable when I visited.
Since you started your business, what has been your greatest challenge, and how has Rainbow helped you through that?
The greatest challenge that many people in this business face is in the growth stage. One of the things that Rainbow International was able to help me with was the growth process. For instance, the national accounts that the restoration franchise provided as part of their system really helped my business.
Networking is one of the benefits of a franchise. Has Rainbow International's network helped your company get through some of those growing pains?
As a franchisee, it's your responsibility to ask for help. When I do have questions, when I do need support, the Franchise Consultant helps me. I bounce ideas off of corporate and other franchisees. I think that is one of the greatest assets of franchising, having other people you can reach out to for assistance when you need it. That's why I looked into franchising because of the network of support that comes along with the business. If you want help with your business, you can get it.
What are some of the goals and aspirations that you have for your business today?
One of the things I've done to grow my business is to add more services. I am at the point now where I am moving into restoration and reconstruction.We've been providing these services to some extent for the last three or four years, but now I've been more focused in that direction. Right now I have nine full-time employees and four working part-time.

Restoration Contractor Focuses on Leadership in Business
After a career in the corporate world Reed and his wife decided it was time to ditch the rat race and settle down. They decided they would return to Reed's hometown of Columbia nestled between the Atlantic Ocean and the Blue ridge mountains of South Carolina."We were looking for a business either to buy or start, and were interested in the restoration industry," said Reed.
Eager to go into business for himself, Reed looked at several options. He knew he wanted to enter the home restoration business, but debated opening his own shop versus opening a franchise. There were several reasons why Reed thought Rainbow International®, a leading brand in the home restoration industry, was a good option. Reed found the system accounts with insurance companies attractive, and he also liked the support systems and national exposure that the backing of The Dwyer Group ® could give his business. However, most importantly according to Reed, it was the franchise company's Code of Values ® and way of doing business that he strongly identified with. Read more
We Love Our Franchisees
On April 4, Rainbow International celebrated its first-ever Franchisee Appreciation Day, a gesture designed as a show of support to Rainbow International's approximately 285 franchisees worldwide. Rainbow International is a home restoration company whose franchises offer smoke, fire, and water damage restoration services as well as carpet cleaning for commercial and residential clients.
The Franchisee Appreciation Day celebration included a handwritten note of appreciation written to every single franchise owner, and a thank-you video from the Rainbow International corporate staff. As a corporate office, The Dwyer Group® brands are always striving to give their franchisees a little extra motivation. As you explore franchises for sale, don't forget to look for a franchise that's committed to your success and to a good corporate culture.
"Thank you so much for the support and for believing in us. We are very proud to carry the Rainbow International Restoration & Cleaning torch. It is always about doing the right thing for our customers."
"We're feeling the love. Thanks for the video, Rainbow International corporate office."
"I LOVE THIS! What a great idea! Thank you WACO!"
Navigating the Troubled Waters of Small Business Ownership
By 7:45 a.m., Ronnie Hurst is already more productive than most people. In his first fifteen minutes of work, Hurst has already delegated cleaning and restoration jobs to his three employees and begun planning for the remainder of the week. It is from his office, lined with filing cabinets and paper, that Ronnie Hurst runs his own business: the Waco Rainbow International.
Before Hurst became the owner of his own Rainbow International franchise, he already had plenty of years of experience under his belt.
"Every person who is really successful in business is a good salesman," says Hurst. "The better at sales they are, the better their business is."
Following a passion for sales, Hurst began his career as a salesman. Over the years he sold trailers, mobile homes and eventually franchises at The Dwyer Group franchise development office. Working closely with other salespeople and learning the inner workings of various Dwyer Group franchises, Hurst began to understand the benefits of owning a franchise over starting his own small business.
"I've seen a lot of guys that own businesses fail and it's due to a lack of knowledge," says Hurst. "There is a certain value to having a franchise rather than starting my own business."
In 2006, the opportunity arose for Hurst to purchase the local Rainbow International franchise. Quickly seeing a great opportunity to use his skills in sales and utilize his work ethic, Hurst became the owner of the Waco Rainbow International.
A self described micromanager and hard worker, Hurst has spent the last five years growing his business. But even with all of his experience in sales, Hurst still finds he runs into trouble managing his own business.
"Business is so involved," said Hurst. "There are so many liabilities, and to be efficient at it, you have to be pretty sharp."
To help facilitate his success and growth in small business, Hurst credits The Dwyer Group and their excellent training methods.
"They teach you every aspect of the business, from accounting and law, to management…I couldn't have done it without The Dwyer Group's support."
The future looks bright for Hurst, but he will be the first to admit his struggles with operating a business.
"Nothing is perfect and The Dwyer Group is not perfect either, but I think they continue to strive to be as good as they can be," says Hurst. "What holds us back in business are our own mistakes, and The Dwyer Group tries to help prevent us from making them."
Hurst doesn't want anyone to think that he runs his business from his office. After delegating employees and getting the day going, Hurst spends the later part of the day working with customers and overseeing restorations and cleanings.
"I'm mechanically inclined so I'm out in the field working." says Hurst.
Offering not only just restoration services, Hurst's Rainbow International also offers carpet cleaning. Although, Hurst says they are performing restoration services around three times a week, he cites the majority of his work to be carpet cleaning jobs.
"We've cleaned everything." said Hurst. "From Baylor students' apartments to the rugs in the Bill Daniel Student Center at Baylor University, we've done it all."
As his morning is beginning to start, the calls from customers start coming in. Hurst is busy answering phones and setting appointments for later in the week. He handles everything in a kind and professional manner. "Restoration really is a year round business," says Hurst with a smile.

ODT Online
ODT /directory
The Logan Park High School pupil was yesterday awarded the
Otago Science and Technology Fair best in fair award for her
display ''North by North-West''.
The display built on the 16-year-old's award-winning work of
last year, which won her selection for the ''Realise the
Dream'' conference and then its Royal Society of New Zealand
travel award, which enabled her to attend the 2014 Youth
Science Conference in Melbourne.
It all began in year 7 when her grandfather posed the
question ''Can soil nutrients be detected by photography?'',
she said.
She developed a method to test for soil nutrients, such as
copper and selenium, using red-green-blue characteristics of
plants, as captured in digital photographs.
Her ''North by North-West'' display looked at the ways
changing the camera angle could affect the colours of the
photographs taken and make it harder to do the analysis.
''It's all been working up to this point. This is the last
step to applying it.''
She had wanted to see the project through due to a love of
physics, she said.
Overall, 318 pupils from years 7 to 13 created 288 displays
for the fair, which were displayed at Otago Museum last week.
Award for excellence: Jacob Jopson (Bridging the Gap).
Tom Shallard (How does incorporating triangles into the
design of bridges affect its weight-bearing capacity?).
General excellence: Cameron Reddington (Growth rate of
Austrovenus stutchburyi).
Premier award for general excellence and University of
Otago premier award: Grant McNaughton (Harbouring an
Most promising young scientist: senior, Alex
Leckie-Zaharic (War of the Words); junior, Patrick Zhang (How
People Consider Organic Foods).
Premier award for gifted and talented pupils in years 7
and 8: Rebecca Dalphin and Prattoyi Saha, (What is eating
our shells?).

A Method for Improved
Visual Positional Estimates of Nova and Supernova Candidates
William G. Dillon
4703 Birkenhead Circle
Missouri City, TX 77459
Presented at the 84th
AAVSO Spring Meeting, May 13, 1995
For a faint nova or for
supernova candidates in crowded star fields, accurate reporting of their
locations is essential. With a modest-sized telescope, a reticle eyepiece, a
good star catalogue, and a pair of reference stars, positional estimates
accurate to a few arcseconds are possible using a technique adapted from
photography. The uncertainty in the position can be quantified if three or more
reference stars are used.

No Title
i got up with a strange feeling and thoughts on my mind,
my pen and my notebook on the desk
not sure how i feel or what i really want
i just cant realize..
i sing along with the tune i hear,
pictures come,pictures i only know,
i keep singin,no better way of expressing. i hold a mirror,
can see ,yet is another sight,
confusing anger,sadness or just pain,
maybe is just her talking
cant realize.. she whispers words,asking to obey,
her way to make u always walk by her side
and im just trying to avoid,
feeling hiding under an angels wing,
away from the thoughts she transfers all the time
-yet one day she ll lose and i ll walk away
Don't say that, I am the one who should thank *YOU* for calling me μπαμπα, okay?

Love yourself every day!
"siga siga" is the only way against Madame Ana, okay?

I am stronger and more patient than she is.

Love,

*so proud of you, YES!!!*

Okay?

*more hugs*

I know. And I hear you, amyMA. We'll face this together. Siga-siga, with a lot of courage because you are not alone.

*hugs and NO tsk*

You will not

be her slave for life

You will be free

Free to eat, free to live.

I will fight Her with

every breath

to push away the

quiet voice which

dares to tell

MY DAUGHTER

that she does not

deserve to eat and grow.

You will be warm,

your head will

be clear,

and you will happy

in your years.

With all my love,

ICS, vCalendar, iCal Importer
1,000 - 5,000 downloadsAdd this app to your lists
+ By Auri Group LLC
ICS Importer solves this. Simply download the ICS attachment and click View from your favorite Android email client and the entry will be imported into your calendar.
Supports iCal, ICS, vCalendar, Microsoft Outlook, iCalendar entries. Basically, any file that ends with .ics will work as long as it follows the vCalendar format.
* Supports Outlook "auto update," so you can respond to an invite with Accept or Decline and it will auto-update the sender's calendar. Simply press the "Accept & Import (Outlook)" button.
* Supports locations, multiple recipients, accepting and declining events in both Outlook and iCalendar format.
Note: Outlook response emails will come from email@example.com. This is an Android limitation to how mail is sent - otherwise you would have to enter your username and password. If you want that feature, let me know and I'll add it. :)
I wrote this out of necessity and have spent a good deal of
time making it work with different formats. If you run into a calendar file that won't work, please email me and I'll try to update the app to support your format.
A few notes:
* You will not see an application icon in your launcher. ICS Importer runs as a "file handler," meaning it's only available when you try to open a file with an extension of .ics or a "MIME" type of "application/calendar". I cannot intercept your emails - they *must* have the attachment.
* In some cases you will need to select "Save" and then "View" for ICS Importer to appear in the list of options. This is a limitation of Android, sorry.
IMPORTANT: This app supports opening, importing, and responding to meeting requests sent as ICS and vCalendar files. However, if you don't get a file attachment, this app can't open it. Sorry, it's a limitation of Android - I can't read your emails, which for privacy reasons is a good thing. Most people won't run into this issue, but just making sure you're aware!
Tags: .ics, icalendar, accept ics, vcalendar, vcalendar email, icalendar support, ics, vcalendar, ical importer, ical import, icalendar ics, ics file importieren galaxy sii.
Version 1.4.1
Included support for larger screens / tablets.
Version 1.4.0
Added support for View function in stock Android email client.
Versions 1.3.8, 1.3.7:
Improved support for ICS file and stream support.
Version 1.3.6:
Corrected issue where periods in filenames caused some ICS files not to load. Also changed MIME assignment so the app is more flexible on phones like the Samsung Galaxy S III.
Version 1.3.5:
Applied 1.3.4 fixes to Event Title and Location.
(22 stars)
Sux, froze every time.
(22 stars)
Possibly the best 99 cents ever spent. After many months on and off trying to accept outlook appointments on Samsung S3 this does the job. Mind you I now use K-9 Mail to manage emails (a good app) and download ICS attachments. Note I had to use iCalendar options to get correct accept emails sent (via K-9 Mail).
(22 stars)
Works well for importing Outlook .ics invites to Google Calendar. All notes and other information is imported flawlessly.
(22 stars)
Good, useful app. However, Outlook responses don't go out from the email address of the users. Hence the organiser doesn't know who's responding. Also, seems to get Timezones wrong.
(22 stars)
Please fix the timezone issues i miss many online meeting because this app do a mistake when convert from pst to sea time :(
(22 stars)
The software is working but when I import the the ICS, the event time is wrong. Example when I receive a meeting event at 2.00pm GMT+8, when I import it become 6.00am. Please fix this!
(22 stars)
Imported ics files however the details in the appointment were blank effectively making this useless.

Dinnerware safety--brand suggestions?
I am in the market for some new every day dishes and I don't want to spend a fortune. But I am struck that everything I've seen at a low cost or reasonable prices is made in China and I am concerned about toxicity and safety for food service (I've researched the issue a lot on the web and those who haven't ought to--it is scary) A friend recently bought a lovely set of white Martha Stewart dishware, and while I love the design, they too come from China. I presently have some nice white dishware that I bought 10 years ago at Willaims-Sonoma, not made in China, but it has seen better days, and even W.S. has lots from China now. I am looking for white dishes again in classic style--no frills and reasonably priced. I'd like to be sure they are safe to use and my first preference would be American made (and I don't want Fiestaware)--next choice would be made somewhere that has safety standards in place for what can be sold for food service. Any suggestions?
I think we're getting crazy here.
Not everything made in China is tainted. If you were to go around your house and clothing and get rid of everything made in China, you'd have a lot of empty spaces.
What are you worried about with the white MS dishware? Lead? You can buy a very inexpensive lead tester. Or email Martha and ask if they've tested it.
re: Jennalynn
Of course, I do realize that not everything made in china is tainted, but there is no way to know, because a lot of the ceramics from China do have high levels of lead (see US consumer affairs) and glazing/firing processes that are not up to US standards and do not prevent toxins from leaching into food. This is why many dishware items from china are not diswasher, microwave, or oven safe. Also, many of these items are not safe to serve acidic or hot foods, like salad dressings and soups. While it may seem a "little crazy" to be so concerned about this, frankly, I am. As a mother, I do not want to take risks, especially when it comes to the potential for contaminating food with lead or whatever else when there are other options to avoid this risk, even if some may think it is small (I happen to think it is not small, from the research I have done on the topic). I am also careful about other products I purchase and I do avoid those very tempting-to-buy inexpensive clothing, bedding, candles, toiletries, toys, etc. made in china and I choose other items I can be more certain are safe for my family. I do have a lead tester. I have also contacted companies like Crate & Barrel and Pottery Barn through e-mail to ask about items made in china that may have lead and I have not received any responses. Safety issue aside, I have other concerns about relying on products from China so heavily, either as an individual or as a society. Our economy has suffered greatly for this and I just hope that people will think twice about what they buy from china and make efforts to support U.S. manufacturers--for safety and economic reasons.
re: liveforfood
Although I appreciate your concerns about cheap products from overseas, there are also many things of excellent quality produced by our trading partners. Similarly, not everything Made in America is of the quality we might like it to be. Unfortunately, we can manufacture some real crap in this country as well.
I think it's important to purchase from reputable companies when we buy things that we are going to eat from or cook in. Lead and other things can leach out into the food we eat if the glazes are improperly applied or are defective in some way. A cheap vase for some flowers - maybe. A cereal bowl for my kids - no way!
re: MakingSense
I agree with you--I'm not really an extremist about this, and sure there is loads of plain junk produced here. Made in America doesn't guarantee safety and quality, and yes, purchasing items from reputable companies is the best strategy. Also, a smart and critical consumer can usually do the research and find out more before making a purchase (part of the reason I started this thread, to learan what others might know as a place to start). I think with products made in China, or other places, there is no way to get more info, or at least, I have not found that to be the case. At one point I heard that there would be American inspections of ceramics and other food-related paraphenalia imported from China, and those that met safety standards would be labeled as such with a seal of some kind, but I have heard nothing else about this. Does anyone know about this?
Perhaps this is more of a plea for transparency about the safety and quality of products we purchase--we need more information about these kinds of goods (and others, at least I do), before I am willing to let my child eat off of them.
I still feel a need to buy American goods whenever I can, though. I live in a state that has deep economic scars because of industry moving abroad, and it is a tragedy to me to see what has happened to so many communites (and the people in them) because the economic infrastructures have disappeared.
re: liveforfood
I, too. look for "Made in the USA." Libbey's, Anchor Hocking, Pfatlzgraf, Corning--It would be terrible for these companies to move completely out of this country. You can't even buy American-made toothpicks anymore.
Johnson Brothers dishes were, last I looked, still made in the USA. Hope they still are.
Fiestaware is still made in the US.
re: Angela Roberta
FYI Pfatlzgraf is now made in China now also.
re: Stirring something up
As is Syracuse China. : > (
re: Angela Roberta
I wasn't aware that Johnson Brothers was made in the USA. Used to be made in England. Not sure anymore. I recently looked in a couple of fine department stores and it seemed just about all the china was made in China or perhaps Indonesia. In this instance, used china may be just the thing. There's always Replacements.com that has an entire warehouse in North Carolina of previously manufactured china.
re: Angela Roberta
So far as I know, Johnson Brothers (which was bought out by Wedgwood some years back), like other Staffordshire dishes, was made in England, not the U.S. Unfortunately, some I saw recently while in the UK is now being made not in England, so if you buy modern Johnson Brothers and want the English made, do check.
re: liveforfood
ITA. I've been checking the bottoms of dishware, flatware and glassware these last couple months to see where they were manufactured. Anything "Made in China" goes back on the shelf. When purchasing online, if the dish says "imported", I'll call the site to confirm in which country it was made.
Maybe overkill to some, but I prefer having a peace of mind.
re: Buckethead
re: liveforfood
I am so glad that you brought up the safety issue (and also the issue of the U.S.A.'s loss of manufacturing jobs), as I have been worried about lead in dinnerware since the Made in China toy scare. I needed new everyday dishes and finally ended up getting Dansk made in Thailand. They get very hot in the microwave and that has concerned me because I had heard dishes with lead get hot (anyone know for sure). I have not tested my dishes but now I will. Need to get one of those testers! Thanks to Chow I have found out that others share my concern. I have not read about dish concerns in the newspapers or heard it mentioned on TV. Let's start manufacturing china again in the USA with strict standards!
re: callpromo
Homer Laughlin China makes Fiesta dinnerware in Newell, West Virginia. It is totally lead free.
re: callpromo
There are still dishes made here, you just have to look beyond the department stores in most cases. The OP wanted Not made in China at a reasonable price. Hall China company makes their wares in Ohio, it's restaurant grade, looks really nice and the prices are much less than you might expect. I got mine from a restaurant supply company, where they sell it by the case of 12, which works out for me because I want 12 place settings anyway. I've also got Apilco, made in France, but that does not in my opinion meet the low cost requirement.
re: Jennalynn
I completely understand your concern given that you have children. Here is a really cheap lead tester (it's like $7 ish), so you can check before you spend a lot of money buying all new dinnerware:
Try Fishs Eddy in New York. As far as I know, all of their dinnerware is still Made in America! Great stuff, clever and lots of fun. They also have plain white - a dressy style and good old diner dishes. I've always been delighted with the things I've gotten from them.
re: MakingSense
Many thanks for this link! Very cool looking stuff, and looks like prices are very reasonable. Lots of items that are just what I had in mind! I will take more time to peruse and do some shopping.
re: liveforfood
Also take a look at Apilco. It's simple white porcelain, made in France for over a century, clean designs, widely available at Williams Sonoma, via Amazon, EBay, occasionally and randomly at such outlets as TJMaxx and Marshalls (but only random pieces, not dinnerware sets).
I've had some Apilco ramekins for years and they are sturdy. If you google the brand name you'll get a number of hits. Good Luck.
re: janniecooks
Apilco, although not made in America, is absolutely first-rate porcelain, as is Pilluvuyt, both of which are available at W-S and at many fine stores and on-line. I've had some of mine for more than 35 years and it is as beautiful today as when I got it. I add to it all the time. Sur LaTable carries Revol, another French porcelain (200 year old company) as well as their own porcelain line (although I'm not sure where it's made.)
re: MakingSense
Sur La Table white porcelain is largely manufactured in Turkey; a few pieces come from different places (e.g. Italy), but the vast majority comes from Turkey.
re: MakingSense
Alas, most of what Fishs Eddy sells now are Chinese imports (except for some of the glass pieces). I had read an article about this earlier this year and I phoned them and they confirmed this. Too bad, because they have very cute designs...
You may also want to check your local restaurant supply store. While many of the items are "Made in China", there are still non-Chinese finds...porcelain from Europe, utensils from Japan...all at very good prices.
All I know of for sure, is not Sango. I bought service for 16. All pieces, all sizes, all the same pattern, a light green, dark green on the outside, with muddled green in there too. Upon washing them the first time in the dishwasher, the glaze came off a bunch of the pieces. Then fadeage started. I took them all back to Macy's at Christmas, with cash receipt in hand and still had the toughest time getting a refund, plus, it took hours. Just no Sango is all I can tell you. Go with a tried and true brand, a well known brand. They don't have to cost an arm and a leg.
re: iL Divo
My experience with Sango is similar to yours. It is crapware. It is supposed to be microwave safe, but I've thrown out many pieces because it cracks in the microwave.

WRE would fit nicely in Disneyland if they replaced the current petting zoo/bbq area with that. They could even expand northwards in the backstage area if necessary as they did for toon town. Get rid of davy crocket canoes and make this ride it's replacement. That would give frontierland 3 great rides and make it feel bigger, which the western wilderness should feel like. Also, it could be differentiated from Grizzly rapids in DCA by making it more of a story like POTC, and less of a thrill/soaker ride.
Of course it probably wont happen, unfortunately this expansion area will be used for a franchise instead of following walts example.
As for WDW, simply move the train track north and west, build WRE adjacent to big thunder along the rivers of america. The current train track/bridge can be used for walking to that forest area where WRE could be. Seems like a no brainer to me.
