Gear Question
do these watches have a band that can be...
do these watches have a band that can be changed by the owner? or do I have to mail it in to the factory?
Christopher Minguez
Yes. That small Phillips screw visible on the band is how the band attaches. There are four, and they unscrew and the band slides out. The bands can be changed with a small jewelers screwdriver, but only Casio specific bands fit as replacements. Meaning this band is only able to be replaced with the same band, and not a different style without strap adapaters.

I can add skill points to Soul Reaping but I have no skills, no category for skills, and even when I see the skill trader they offer no skills for SR.

Buck Showalter did an excellent job of guiding the Baltimore Orioles back into the playoffs. Bob Melvin had an equally fine effort with the Oakland Athletics.
Leyland's pick for top manager? Showalter & Melvin
So who should be the AL Manager of the Year? Both of them, Detroit skipper Jim Leyland said.
"Not to put the cart before the horse, but I hope that Buck Showalter and Bob Melvin are co-Managers of the Year this year," Leyland said before Detroit tried for a three-game sweep at Oakland in the ALDS on Tuesday night. "I think if there's a year there should be two guys getting the award, this is the year."
The award, chosen by voters from the Baseball Writers' Association of America, will be announced next month.
Melvin, in his first full season with Oakland, managed the A's to a 94-68 record. The surprising Athletics returned to the playoffs for the first time in six years. His erased a 13-game AL West deficit — including five games over the final nine — and overtook two-time reigning AL champion Texas on the season's final day.
The A's became the first team in major league history to win the division or pennant after trailing by five or more games with fewer than 10 to go.
Showalter, meanwhile, helped the Orioles end 14 straight losing seasons and four consecutive last-place finishes. They won 93 games to earn a wild-card berth and beat the two-time defending AL champion Rangers in a one-game playoff to advance to the division series against New York.
The Yankees and Orioles are tied one game apiece. Game 3 is Wednesday in New York.
BIRDS ON A BUS: Baltimore manager Buck Showalter was given an unexpected reminder of what it was like to travel in his minor league days.
The Orioles rode the bus to New York.
The alternate plans were needed when Baltimore's train stalled because of electrical problems along the line early Tuesday morning after beating the Yankee 3-2, tying their AL division series at one game each.
"The way I understand it, I think the train ahead of us, I think it was the Yankees, clipped something," Showalter said. "Finally we just got on a bus, and it was about a 2½-hour bus ride from there to the hotel here in New York."
The Orioles arrived at 9 a.m. about three hours after the Yankees returned — also by bus. Both teams began their journeys shortly after 1 a.m.
This wasn't Baltimore's first brush with transportation problems. Less than two weeks ago, the Orioles team plane had smoke in the forward galley and had to be diverted.
FIRST PITCHES, FRANK-LY SPEAKING: Frank Robinson and Frank Howard — a pair of men with strong connections to Washington baseball — will be throwing out the ceremonial first pitches for Games 3 and 4 of the Nationals' NLDS against the St. Louis Cardinals.
Robinson was the first manager of the Nationals, guiding them through their initial two seasons in the nation's capital, 2005 and 2006, after having spent four seasons with them when the club was the Montreal Expos. The Hall of Famer get the honor before Wednesday's game, the first baseball postseason contest in Washington since 1933.

In a move that appeared to surprise most everyone, New London Mayor Daryl Justin Finizio declared himself a lame duck Tuesday, announcing he would not seek re-election in November 2015.
The mayor's stated motivation is to set election politics aside and "dedicate myself fully to the task at hand." That task is pushing for the big increase in spending the mayor says is necessary to restore both fiscal health and basic city services.
"Too much of the debate in our city has been focused on me instead of our real financial problems," the mayor said in his State of the City Address Tuesday.
It is, of course, the mayor's prerogative to decide whether he wants to run again and when to announce that decision. If, however, he expects it will help get his fiscal-policy agenda passed, he may be disappointed.
The debate about the mayor and fiscal policy are inseperable. An early announcement not to run won't change that. The question is whether citizens consider his Tuesday declaration, "We are out of money, and we are out of time," to be credible?
Mayor Finizio has made questionable appointments to his administration, kept in place a development agency he promised to dissolve, reversed his decisions on firings after being adamant he was right, and taken on fights a more deft executive would have sidestepped. This has damaged his credibility, and that damage influences the discussion on fiscal policy.
Rebuilding creditability is essential to gaining support for the controversial fiscal policies Mayor Finizio espouses. It is difficult to see how declaring yourself a one-term mayor at this stage does that. Instead, making it clear he will not run could embolden his adversaries, while his influence with City Council allies could wane given the reality that they now know, for sure, he will only be around for a fixed time.
On the other hand, Mayor Finizio will be freer to veto any budget passed by the council that he considers unrealistic, without concern for political repercussions and the friction he may generate within the city's Democratic Party.
Since the start of his administration, this editorial page has backed the mayor's efforts to tackle the serious fiscal problems he inherited. But we also have acknowledged political realities. That is again the case with the mayor's proposal for an $87.1 million budget, a 7.24 percent increase over this fiscal year.
Mayor Finizio is right, the cupboard is bare and cuts in services have gone too deep, impacting public safety and the ability to maintain the city. There is logic to his contention that the recent revaluation, which saw many property assessments drop precipitously, would make a tax increase more progressive, hitting harder those with the greater ability to pay.
Yet voters would petition to referendum a spending increase as high as he proposes - and likely defeat it. The better option is to start rebuilding, moving toward the goal of an 80-officer police force, for example, by next year going from 65 to 72, and adding back six positions to Public Works, not 12.
With sad irony, Mayor Finizio delivered a masterful performance in announcing his coming exit from the stage. He stuck to policy arguments, explained his thinking and made the case for his proposed course of action. This was the mayor the city thought they were electing in 2011, delivering bold, decisive, articulate leadership.
Certainly, factoring into his decision not to run again was the nature of the attacks the mayor has faced. Criticism from some circles was relentless, personal, at times vile, and often sophomoric. Moving forward the city should strive for a higher level of discourse, heeding the mayor's request to "put our own interests aside and � put our city first."

Vanessa Stella (Marketing/Design, 2011)
"My experience at PhilaU was incredible! Not only did I make great friends and have a lot of fun during my 4 years, but I also had the chance to work hands-on with major corporations on real-world projects and gain professional experience to add to my resume.
"A major part of the business curriculum is working on group projects, either with large organizations to develop new products and strategies or as an entrepreneurial/start-up endeavor to bring a new business to the community. These experiences turned out to be top highlights of my time at PhilaU. In one of these projects, my team and I created an entire business plan from the ground up, covering everything from marketing and finance to logistics and staffing. In another, my team and I had the chance to work with a major supplier to the auto industry. After being named the winner of the project, we were taken to the company's headquarters in Michigan to see first-hand how our products could be taken to market. All of these real-world experiences helped me broaden my network, strengthen my resume and gain more experience through internships. I was able to intern for 3 different companies before graduating, one of which led me directly into my first job out of college. Earning a degree in Marketing and a minor in Design from PhilaU has given me a solid start to my professional life, and I know that what I've learned will continue to be valuable to me as I progress in my career."

After nearly 3 days and nights straight experimenting with the 60-day trial version of this software, I have yet to be able to achieve what we are looking for.
When I am installing the 8.5 version, having installed and then uninstalled this several times, and each time I installed it, I chose to install it with the default liberty profile. Out of the 7 times I installed, uninstalled and installed 8.5 ND, half of the time, the Liberty profile didn't install correctly, if at all, and in the times it didn't, I was unable to even configure it to the point of even launching the web-based admin console to really configure it.
I have it installed on a Solaris 10 server. When I issue the command:
It comes back and says:
The specified profile "Liberty" cannot be found. If a default profile exists and you wish to use it, the -profileName parameter is not required.
I installed the Liberty profile already, and it doesn't see it. When I get past that hurdle am I assuming correctly that to launch it it would be:
http://myhostname.com:9043/ibm/console ?
So I think before I get any further with saying yes or no to this, do you have – short of the IBM website that supposedly has instructions on this, which are at best vague and elusive, the installation instructions that detail how to do the following:
The exact syntax for making sure that the admin console is running, and launching it from a browser.
This version doesn't come with a detailed option first steps program to test the installation, validate the installation and launch the admin console. How is this done?
After installing the defaults, I start the admin console by issuing the script startManager.sh. It looks for a profile prior to starting. It errors if one isn't created. According to the documentation on your site, it says the syntax to create a profile when the default isn't present is to go to the /opt/IBM/Websphere/AppServer/bin directory and execute the manageprofiles.sh script with the parameters specified in this example: ./manageprofiles.sh -create -Newprofile AppServer. This was the only syntax to issue this script that even came close to working. And when it creates the profile, it errors stating: /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv01/config/cells/suns02Node01Cell/nodes/suns02Node01/servers/dmgr/server.xml file not found. So when I look for that directory the script states in needs to look for I find that the directory /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv01/config/cells/suns02Node01Cell/nodes/suns02Node01/servers/server1/ doesn't even exist. The default installation configures it as /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv01/config/cells/suns02Node01Cell/nodes/suns02Node01/servers/dmgr/server.xml. And when I manually change that directory name to dmgr, and rerun the script – it still generates the same error.
So these are some of the rudimentary hurdles with your product that I am having that is gaining me nothing but hours upon hours of lost time simply trying to configure the basics of this product.
Now if there is someone who is in a support role who is an expert at installing this, I can wipe the system clean, start from scratch and repeat this while I have them on the phone to ensure they know what I am doing step by step and then guide me down the right path to get the admin console up and running, because thus far, I have found this version to be a reverse engineering task to simply install it and get it up and running.

Re: Launching web admin console2013-01-02T15:09:59Z in response to SystemAdminThe WebSphere Application Server Liberty profile v8.5 is a highly composable, fast to start, dynamic application server runtime environment. Although the Liberty profile can installed alongside the WebSphere Application Server full profile, Liberty functions completely separate from all other applications servers on your machine. Unfortunately, the word "profile" has taken on dual meanings with the WAS v8.5 release; first meaning the type of application server code-base which is installed (traditional WAS runtime versus Liberty), and the collection of configuration files for runtime environments in traditional WAS (default app server, admin agent, job manager, deployment manager, etc.).
Therefore, you do not need to install the Liberty profile content to create the traditional WebSphere application servers with which you might already be familiar. And, the admin console app which is deployed to traditional WAS profiles is not functional with Liberty profile application server, but rather only in certain profile types created with traditional WAS.
However, if you are interested in trying out the fast new stream-lined application server in the Liberty profile, I recommend reading about Liberty in the Information Center to familiarize yourself with the new type of application server.

110th birth anniversary of the poet celebrated
DHARWAD: Along with the works of Da.Ra. Bendre, places in Dharwad, including its lakes and ponds that influenced him, should be preserved, Jnanapeeth award-winner U.R. Ananthamurthy has said.
He was speaking at a function organised to mark the 110th birth anniversary celebrations of D.R. Bendre at Bendre Bhavan on Tuesday evening. The `Da. Ra. Bendre Award' presentation ceremony was also held. "The works of Bendre are replete with the social, cultural and literary milieu of Dharwad.
An attempt to preserve places closely connected to Bendre and his works will certainly help in understanding his works better. The endeavour will be like handing over a treasure to the next generation", Dr. Ananthamurthy said.
He likened the works of Bendre to an epic that introduces and gives picturesque details of Dharwad, the place where the poet grew up. He recalled his association with the poet and his works and the impact it has made on him.
He compared the works of several Kannada poets with those of Da.Ra. Bendre.
Dr. Ananthamurthy conferred the `Da. Ra. Bendre Award' for 2004-05 on critic G.S. Amur and the Bendre Award for 2005-06 on Karnataka Sangha, Shimoga. The award carries a cash prize of Rs. 25,000.

No reader of the New Testament can doubt that the Apostles were prophets; but as a prophet does not always speak by revelation, but only, at rare intervals, as we showed at the end of Chap. I., we may fairly inquire whether the Apostles wrote their Epistles as prophets, by revelation and express mandate, as Moses, Jeremiah, and others did, or whether only as private individuals or teachers, especially as Paul, in Corinthians xiv:6, mentions two sorts of preaching.

Ikea Mikael Computer Desk is Cheap and Small
Ikea's Cheap, Petite Mikael — Can I Call You Mike?
by Tech
Like us on Facebook
Since I'm on an Ikea kick with the Benno faux-mount TV stand, I thought I'd bring you another useful piece of home tech.
The Mikael desk would fit right into my place — I still love the convenience of my Dave stand, but sometimes I really get more done sitting at a desk.
And though the pic shows how great the Mikael is for a desktop computer, I'd use it for my laptop, and totally increase the usefulness — when I'm not laptopping, I can do my bills there or use it for my sewing machine!
And seriously — 40 bucks?! Great for a small apartment, dorm, or small budget. In red, birch, pink, blue, white, and dark brown.

I scored an awesome deal today on a wireframe shelf with wheels. It was about less than $30 US. It's great for the computer because the wireframe-ness of it makes it easier for the heat to disperse. And I can adjust the height of each shelf, too, unlike these particle board things from Ikea. I can just lay a piece of board on it, and viola! Desk space!

In England this come in a gorgeous turquoise and as Lainetm says the bright yellow, which really looks fantastic. Really really good value and I used to have two monitors on mine and there was still loads of room. If you do buy a small tip, be careful of which way round you put the base as you cannot get it off again, my computer now has to sit on the left for eternity (I cannot get my head round flatpack furntiure)

With just below three-fifths of Industrial Tool Designers in the United States reporting more than 10 years of experience, the field is heavily weighted toward experienced professionals. Average pay for Industrial Tool Designers is $55K annually and can range from $41K on the lower end to $90K per year near the higher end. Most workers in this position report moderate levels of job satisfaction. Most enjoy medical while a majority get dental coverage. Vision coverage is also available to just over two-fifths. The figures in this overview were provided by individuals who took PayScale's salary questionnaire.

Copy and paste this HTML:
Industrial Tool Designers who responded to the survey indicated only a few skills that they use on the job. Most notably, skills in NX Unigraphics, AutoCAD, SolidWorks, and Engineering Design are correlated to pay that is above average. Skills that seem to negatively impact pay include Engineering Design. AutoCAD and SolidWorks are also commonly seen together.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
Experience does not seem to be a strong driver of pay increase in this role. The average inexperienced worker earns $49K, and someone who has worked for five to 10 years can expect a bigger median salary of $53K. The average pay reported by folks with 10 to 20 years of experience is around $62K. Veterans who have surpassed the 20-year mark may make only slightly more than those who are navigating the mid-career stage; the more senior group reports median earnings of around $63K.

Stavia, the novel's heroine, is the younger daughter of Morgot, an important member of the Marthatown Council. The book opens with Stavia as an adult, heading for a meeting with her fifteen-year-old son, Dawid. He has spent the last ten years living outside the city walls as a warrior, as all boys do, and is now old enough to decide whether he wishes to remain a warrior or accept a life of study and service among the women. Dawid formally renounces his mother and chooses to become a full-fledged warrior.
Afterwards, Stavia remembers when her own brother was sent to live with the warriors. Much of the rest of the novel is told in flashback, and follows Stavia's life from childhood to adulthood. Meanwhile, in the story's present, Stavia prepares for her role as Iphigenia in Marthatown's annual performance of Iphigenia at Ilium, a reworking of the Greek tragedy The Trojan Women that weaves through the novel as a leitmotif.
When still a child, Stavia met Chernon, the son of one of her mother's friends. Although Chernon lives in the garrison with the other boys and men, he and Stavia form a friendship. They meet at the twice-annual Carnival, the only event in Women's Country where men and women can mix freely. Stavia eventually agrees to smuggle books to Chernon for him to read, even though this is forbidden for boys in the garrison.
In fact, Chernon has been ordered by his commander, Michael, to learn more about the secrets of the women who rule Women's Country. Stavia leaves Marthatown for several years to train as a doctor, but on her return Chernon pursues their relationship again. When Stavia is selected for an exploration mission to the south, Chernon takes a leave of absence from the garrison and meet her there.
While away from Women's Country, Stavia and Chernon are captured by a band of "Holylanders", members of a struggling community to the south of Women's Country. They practice polygamy and seem to be descendants of rural fundamentalist Christian and Mormon splinter groups. The Holylanders are brutally misogynistic and treat women as slaves to their husbands.
Stavia's experiences among the Holylanders give her a deeper appreciation for her homeland, but upon her return to Women's Country she finally learns the secrets of the Women's Country Council and the choices they have made to preserve their way of life.
The question of the causes of human violence is also a major theme, and in the novel Tepper's society believes they are successfully breeding violence out of humanity. In the novel, violence appears to be biologically determined but not sex-linked. Large numbers of hysterectomies and other societal manipulations mean many women do not contribute to the genetics of the next generation. By selecting only nonviolent males to breed, the society is slowly increasing the number of such nonviolent males.

A friend has a PC which is neither on a network or ever on the internet. It has seldom been used but recently she can't open 'My Computer' or 'My Docum,ents'. Everything else seems to work fine. e.g. such as booting up or getting into MS Office applications.
Its hard to imagine how a virus or malware, etc got into the PC as it is an offline stand alone. So could be the possible cause of the problem?

The Supreme Court of India may have forced him to step down as BCCI president, but nothing can stop N Srinivasan from representing India at the ICC or becoming its first chairman. BCCI secretary Sanjay Patel said as much at the 37th National Convention of the Sports Journalists' Federation of India (SJFI) here on Saturday.
"By the end of this month, India will take up a leading role in the ICC. Mr Srinivasan is going (to Melbourne). There is no Supreme Court bar on him. Both of us are going to Melbourne. In the last four months, we have settled (the issue) with all the full members of the ICC and convinced them about the new structure and the new financial model which that be followed in the coming years," Patel said.
The administrator also conveyed his personal view regarding the exiled BCCI chief. "As far as my personal view is concerned, Srinivasan is not guilty but we have to follow the laws of this country and we are abiding by it. We are hopeful that things will be over by August-end. I have already mentioned in the Supreme Court in two of my affidavits that we will offer full cooperation to the probe panel because we have nothing to hide," said Patel.
Patel also revealed that "68 to 70 per cent" of the ICC's revenue comes from India. "Unfortunately, all these years, we were getting just 3-4 per cent of the revenue. After a lot of deliberations with ICC officials, Australia and England also joined hands with us. And from the projected revenue of $2.8 billion for the eight-year cycle from 2016 to 2023, it was decided that India should get 24 per cent (nearly $800 million)," he added.
Patel said that had India not got its due, they would have been forced to form a "second ICC". "We were criticised in the media. A lot of people did not agree with us, but we told the ICC that if India didn't get its due then the BCCI might be forced to form a second ICC of its own," said Patel. "India has almost worked out the Future Tours Programme (FTP) till 2020. In the next eight years, India is likely to host three international events including the World Cup."
The BCCI also wants the ICC headquarters to be shifted to India. "India is also a contender," Patel said.

Immigrants struggle to cope in Sandy's aftermath
The agency will be "resuming normal enforcement activity, with continued emphasis on at-large criminal aliens, in the near future," an ICE statement to The Associated Press said.
Emilio Hector Gloria Fuentes, a 49-year-old immigrant from Morelos, said he is staying with some relatives in the home of a priest because they can't return to the basement where they lived in Staten Island.
Fuentes, who works in a pizzeria, is not eligible for FEMA help because of his immigration status.
"I had my savings, in cash, in that basement. I lost them all," he said. "A disaster like this is much worse for an undocumented person than for a United States citizen or someone with some money."
As Maria Lucero dealt with construction workers ripping down the walls of her living room, she lamented that her landlord said it will be at least a month before her family can return to their Staten Island home. Her family is fortunate to be able to stay with friends, Lucero said, but "I'm not comfortable without having my home."
Because they get paid in cash, immigrant workers lost money for the days they did not work after the storm. Without access to credit, their main hope now is to join reconstruction efforts as day laborers.
Mexican day laborer Eberto Silva didn't have to look far for such a job - his landlord hired him at $14 an hour to do cleaning and demolition work at an apartment complex in Coney Island.
"There is going to be more work for immigrants like me now," he said. "We may see that in the next few weeks."
Groups that are part of the National Day Labor Organizing Network have also brought day laborers to do volunteer cleanup activities on weekends. El Centro del Inmigrante is trying to become a hiring center for day laborers, making sure that they work in safe and secure conditions.
"A center like that is urgently needed," Mercado said. "We feel that now, after Sandy, this is the right moment to do it."

The only time I've ever had a tire "let go" during installation was in the old days of rim brakes on mountain bikes. After a wet winter, the sides of older rims would be compromised from the brake pads/winter grit. I was inflating a stubborn tire for a customer (this is a BICYCLE tire now) and at around 40psi the rim side let go, catastrophically.
There were rim chunks embedded in the ceiling. I couldn't hear properly for hours. Scared the crap out of everyone in the shop. Now, even though I have no qualms about inflating a tire to insane pressures to seat them, I'm still scared of it and take the appropriate precautions.
I've seen video of truck tires exploding and have no desire to witness one in person. I heard a story once (no claims as to the veracity of this story) that had a tire tech not use the safety cage when dealing with a "split" rim off a semi when the tire exploded. According to the story, the upper half of the tech's body was catapulted into the air and landed on top of the shop's sign, leaving the lower half behind.
While I'm not sure the story is true, it certainly illustrates the amount of energy we're dealing with here.

Introduction / objectives
Hand hygiene (HH) compliance reduces the incidence of nosocomial infection, however, little research has been conducted on factors that influence healthcare students' HH practices. The study aims were to examine the relationships between healthcare students' HH knowledge, beliefs and practices, the ways they were educated and assessed on HH, and their perceptions of the importance given to HH in the curriculum.
A HH questionnaire was administered to 1485 nursing and medical students from 19 universities in Australia, Sweden and Greece. The General Linear Model was used to examine the relationships between study variables.
Knowledge scores were significantly influenced by the frequency of HH assessment and the number of methods used to teach HH (F=3.2;p = .04). HH practices were significantly influenced by HH beliefs, knowledge, assessment frequency, number of teaching methods, perceptions of the importance of HH as an infection control measure and the importance given to HH in the curriculum (F=84.7;p < .01), although HH beliefs were the greatest predictors of practice. Hand hygiene beliefs were significantly influenced by HH knowledge, by students' perceptions of the importance given to HH in the curriculum and by supervisors and facilities, and the importance of HH as an infection control measure (F=46.3;p < .01).
While repeated HH education and assessment offers a means of improving undergraduate health care students' HH knowledge and practices, students' beliefs about HH had a greater impact on their HH practice than their HH knowledge did. Encouraging more positive HH beliefs may be a more effective way of improving HH practice.

Feeling Blah….
I had a completely different post typed out this morning that revolved around a disagreement Pato and I had and who is right, but I deleted it. We've been going back and forth all day via text message because I am sick of talking to him, and the post just wasn't the light teasing post it started out to be.

Me too...I keep nodding off at my desk
I hope this passes for us soon!
I'm glad I'm not alone with this. I have been so exhausted lately and have absolutely no energy. I have so much to do to get the house ready for my twins not to mention get everything prepared for my 2 older sons to go back to school, yet all I want to do is sit or sleep. I have been having to do 1 chore then sit for awhile before I have the energy to do anything else. If only my body would work as fast as my mind. My house would be spotless & everything would be done.

An Experimental Analysis of Electricity Conservation Procedures
Palmer, Michael H.
MetadataShow full item record
The problem. To determine if behavioral procedures would be effective in lowering overall daily electricity consumption with residential consumers. Procedure. Electricity meters were read each night for 106 days at the homes of four experimental families. Each family experienced one or more of the following conditions. Feedback: Daily reports of electricity consumption were provided to experimental families. Monetary feedback: As well as daily reports of electricity consumption, projected monthly electricity bills were provided daily. Daily prompts: A card prompting electricity conservation was provided each day. Prompts and feedback: Both feedback and prompts were provided simultaneously. Government prompt: A personal letter from the Director of the Iowa Office of Energy was sent to the experimental families urging a reduction in electricity consumption. Findings. Either prompting or feedback techniques were effective in lowering total daily electricity consumption in three of four suburban families. Conclusions. Additional research is necessary to assess the relative effectiveness of various prompting and feedback techniques. Recommendations. Behavioral research should be used as a resource in energy conservation programs.
