You need someone who quickly understands your needs, reviews your materials, asks intelligent questions, understands the answers, and lays out your thoughts and ideas clearly and effectively. You need RESULTS NOW, if not sooner. You don't have time to educate a generic writer without the background to climb that steep learning curve quickly. "Incredible attention to detail and the ability to thoughtfully lay out complex ideas and concepts into an eBook that will give those with no experience in the subject a primer. Final product was provided ahead of schedule on a busy holiday week. We're already talking about our next project." "Opher did an amazing job. Took personal interest and delivered exceptional results. Went above and beyond what was initially agreed, focusing on nothing other than project success. Highly recommended when you want to get things done." "Another amazing project with Opher! He's fast, efficient and extremely talented. I'm about to hire him again."

In the woods, it handles great, but it took a higher level of commitment than I enjoy. I've always been a big-bore guy, meaning I ride best when I'm not shifting all the time and rely on the torque of the engine. The 350 doesn't do that, it has plenty of go, but you will shift 3x more than on the 450 or 500 to go the same speed down the trail.
Finally, the bike felt physically small to me- I dragged the pegs in places I didn't expect to, and the length of the cockpit seems a bit shorter than the 450/500.
What that boils down to is 100% personal preference. I prefer the bigger bore/ bigger bike, and that isn't really a knock on the 350 at all. I think the only place it came up short is for real dualsporting- gearing and revs would be an issue if you were doing lots of pavement/ boring dirt.
Im of the same mind,shifting lots doesnt help much with trail concentration,bigger bores usually leave you with a choice of gears for any given situation.
I had an 06 400EXC and even it was a little weak off the bottom for cliff climbs with no run at them,it would also get hot and stall at the damndest of times. My 530 takes no notice of most climbs,just a matter of pointing it the right way.

Addictions and community support worker programs available at UCW Academy of Health
Victoria, BC (PRWEB) October 11, 2009 – The YWCA's Week Without Violence kicks off today, acting as a sober reminder that domestic violence is still very much a reality and emphasizes the need for trained social workers throughout the world. Those interested becoming community support workers can enroll in the Addictions and Community Support Worker program at UCW Academy of Health.
Some 17,000 people across Canada are joining the 90 countries participating in Week Without Violence, which raises awareness of this social issue through special events and programming. Women, in particular, are marginalized by violence in the home and there are a number of community outreach programs available to help them find their way.
"There isn't a certain 'type' of woman who would seek help from community support workers," says Robin Emberly, Lower Mainland Addictions and Community Support Worker instructor. "I believe that any woman who needs help with transition from addiction, family violence, poverty, and homelessness may be in contact with community support workers. There are many different agencies who respond to women seeking help."
UCW offers Social Services diploma programs (http://www.academyofhealth.ca/Diploma_Programs/Social_Services_Diplomas/Social_Services_Programs) to help accommodate the need for experts in this field. The Addictions and Community Support Worker program trains graduates to work with children, youth, and families; dealing with alc

PROTEST: Students of Government Siddha Medical College, Tirunelveli, staging a dharna on Wednesday. Photo: A. Shaikmohideen.
TIRUNELVELI: Over 300 students, including 175 girls, of Government Siddha Medical College, Tirunelveli, went on token strike on Wednesday, "condemning the manner in which their answer scripts were valued and demanding withdrawal of recently declared results of BSMS examinations held in August."
The students, holding posters aloft, also staged a dharna inside the college till evening pressing their demands.
Describing the results declared on October 25 last as the "worst" in the annals of siddha medical education of Tamil Nadu, the students alleged that the MGR Medical University, which is controlling the medical institutions across the State, had roped in "incompetent and inexperienced faculty members of recently started private siddha medical colleges for evaluation of their answer scripts, which was the main reason for this problem."
"As per the norms prescribed by the university, faculty members having a minimum of five years of teaching experience alone should be invited for valuation of papers. However, some of our seniors, who passed out recently and joined private siddha medical colleges as faculty members, have valued our papers. Consequently, more than 50 per cent of the students in each year have failed in this examination," said N. Karikalan, chairman of students' union.
Moreover, the meeting of the Moderation Board, which would be usually convened prior to publishing of results, was not held this year. This board, comprising the representatives of MGR Medical University and principals of the government and private siddha medical college as its members, reportedly awards "grace marks" ranging from 3 to 5 marks to the students in the "border" so that some more students could pass the examinations.
"Had the Moderation Board met this time and awarded grace marks, more than 50 per cent of the students, who have failed now, would have passed," Mr. Karikalan said.
Most of the faculty members of Government Siddha Medical College, Tirunelveli, agree that the demands of the students "are genuine."
The Principal, R. Dinakaran, also admitted that the decision against holding the Moderation Board meeting had an adverse impact on the results.
After sending faxes to higher-ups, the students are now planning to intensify their stir.

LEGO Architecture: Chicago
The last six buildings make up a cross section of what could have been the Chicago Skyline. Instead, however, both the Chicago Spire and 7 South Dearborn were never built. Here are the stats on the various models in this collection (from left to right -- Marina City is the identical pair):
- Sears Tower, which is now known as Willis Tower: 9'6", 5,850 pieces, 20 hours to design, 50 hours to build
- Chicago Spire: 10'0", 17,450 pieces, 150 hours to design, 200 hours to build
- Marina City: 4'0", 9,100 pieces, 60 hours to design, 120 hours to build
- Trump Tower Chicago: 8'0", 11,100 pieces, 40 hours to design, 80 hours to build
- 7 South Dearborn: 10'6", 6,400 pieces, 50 hours to design, 30 hours to build

Cashing In on the Super Bowl
Kevin White, Icon Security Solutions
Icon Security Solutions wants to save their clients unnecessary hassles. So if you've booked the firm for personal protection services during the Super Bowl, don't worry about calling for a limo -- they'll take care of it.
President Kevin White, the former director of corporate security for Rooms to Go, decided a year ago to strike out on his own and founded Icon. The firm specializes in executive protection. So far, they've worked with several corporate clients, an entertainer, and a couple of athletes.
White says Tampa, host of Super Bowl XLIII, is seeing an influx of business as excitement for the Super Bowl begins to build. "I think it's a definite opportunity to attract new clients, but it also gives me a great deal of exposure, and it's an economic shot in the arm in these tough times," he says.

"We're like, we have to have a CD, we have to have a player, we have to have all the accoutrements. And there in those countries, developing countries, like Brazil, wherever, where people don't have much, a lot of people don't have much, they're still making music in the streets. You go to Cuba, they're making music in the streets. I like that."
"My first musical memory is probably listening to the radio in Scotland," said Lennox. "We used to listen to Scottish country dance music. It's very exciting, wonderful, uplifting music."
Lennox said that Scottish dance music was popularized by a man named Jimmy Shand. She describes it as "a mixture of Scottish fiddles and accordion and piano and drums, and it's not like there's a song, there's tunes because there's nobody singing them."
Lennox says she owes Joni Mitchell "a huge debt, because she kind of walks before all singer/songwriters."
"When I first heard Joni Mitchell I was 19 or 20. … There's a song called 'The Jungle Line' on [the album] 'Hejira' where she uses a special kind of rhythm of Burundi drum. That is so innovative, and I don't think she's been given full credit for her unique innovation, the things that she brought in," she said.
"One of my favorite songs of all time is 'Wichita Lineman' [performed] by Glen Campbell, which just is an absolute masterpiece without any doubt whatsoever," said Lennox. "It is so haunting, it is so exquisitely beautiful, and I remember when I was a teenager and I first heard it on the radio, it got to me so strongly."
Lennox said she recently got a window into Campbell's songwriting process.
"Someone gave me a CD recently about how that song came to be recorded, how it become to be written, and that's very interesting because hearing Glen Campbell talk about how the song came into being was fascinating for me," she said. "I'm not really sure how other songwriters work. They probably all have their own methodology. So I was very glad to hear Glen Campbell describe how that song came about and I'm very glad that there is such a song like 'Wichita Lineman' — and I know it's touched a lot of people."
"And of course, Bob Marley, 'No Woman No Cry,' Lennox said. "Wow, when you hear that Hammond introduction, Oh my God…in that moment I'm Jamaican, I'm black and I'm sitting in the government yard in Trenchtown, you know? And I want to be there with them."
Lennox says this song is "at the very top" of her list, "because the very moment you hear the entry of his voice, oh my God. And when I started to hear this kind of music I was mesmerized, even now, when I think of it, that's magic."
"Marvin Gaye — what a voice," she added. "And that rhythm, and then the strings come in. It's classic Motown arrangements. There was like a gold vein and gold thread coming through Detroit — unbelievable. "
Lennox calls this song by Aretha Franklin "one of the best songs of all time" and "pure magic."

In addition, the communications protocol program was supposed to be finished early in the judgment's life, and its delays have kept software vendors from fully using the program, Houck said.
"The whole thing... doesn't have an opportunity to work as the court intended," he said. "It's very clear that the product markets at issue in this case have not moved rapidly at all."
Kollar-Kotelly said she would delay final reports on the judgment while she considers the California group's request. Microsoft and the plaintiffs were scheduled to meet with her November 6 to discuss the final reports, but she will now consider the extension request on that date.
Before Houck made his request, the judge said she was opposed to extending the judgment without a good reason. It was hard to predict the impact the judgment would have, she added.
"The final chapter of the final judgment has not been written," Kollar-Kotelly said.
The California group wants Kollar-Kotelly to extend all of section 3 of the judgment except for section 3B, dealing with manufacturer royalties. The extended provision would include:
- A prohibition against Microsoft retaliating against PC vendors for including competing software on PCs;
- A prohibition against Microsoft restricting PC vendors from putting competing middleware in the start menu or making them defaults;
- A requirement that Microsoft give APIs (application programming interfaces) for its middleware to PC vendors and independent software vendors.

Pop singer Justin Bieber was detained at Brisbane airport after the officials found drugs in possession of his entourage members. They were let off after paying the fine.
Singer Justin Bieber was detained at the Brisbane airport during a drug search conducted by customs agents. A member of his entourage was reportedly carrying weed, reports tmz.com.
According to tmz.com, sources close to Bieber said that the suspect had a disposable vaporiser, which is basically an electronic device to smoke marijuana. It had residue in it.
According to the sources, a security check showed up an unknown amount of residue on a 23-year-old man in Bieber's crew.
The young man was given a ticket and released. The 23-year-old's attorney appeared in the court on Thursday and paid the fine on Justin's behalf. The singer was here for his Believe World Tour.

The thing I don't get is why he thinks all the social benefits (which he admits there is research backing up) of homeschooling evaporate at 9th grade? Like your HS'd highschooler isn't going to continue to be involved in social activities like he suggests, and possibly find a job (gasp! But you have to go to High School to learn what the real world is like!) part time, etc.

text: I got these shoes last year strictly for clay. I only play on clay maybe 8 times a year or so, but it seems recently I've been playing more. Last night, I was playing a 3-setter, I served and my achilles tightened up, almost like it was cramping up. I instantly stretched it with my foot rocker that I have for PF, but put my T22's on that I normally wear on hardcourt. I could definitely tell a significant difference in traction, so I would like to stick with the Trance's for that reason. But I am just afraid of the ankle support or even worse, injuring my achilles. I've noticed some other Wilsons with the full herringbone outsole, but I'm afraid to try one and have it turn out to be the same thing. Any one else experience this before with these shoes? Any recommendations? These are the ones I use.

PROPER FOOD A LITTLE BOOK of IT ALL STARTED IN MY KITCHEN In 2002, my dog Mosi had food-related health issues — I started home cooking for him and loved the results, but ended up with a very messy kitchen! I couldn't find a healthy, all-natural food that was convenient to make, so I decided to create a dehydrated pet food, using real whole foods, myself! I began to offer the food to friends and other local people and their dogs. The food spoke for itself in the way it tasted and the health benefits it yielded. And that's how The Honest Kitchen began. From there we grew dramatically through word of mouth at dog parks and in online forums — one shiny dog at a time — something that remains at the core of our success today. BEFORE PROFITS PETS 75% GET TO KNOW US! of us HAVE MORE PICTURES OF OUR PETS ON OUR PHONES THAN ANYTHING, OR ANYONE, ELSE. A THKer We've been pet lovers since we were little tykes, and came up with some clever names for our childhood pets like Cinderella, Fluffy, Freedom and Beauty. an honest We have is kitchen employee. TWELVE We're dogs join foodies! us in our office each day. We love to create meals for our 2 legged and 4 legged staff from the Organic CSA box we get twice a month! We've all tried Honest kitchen's food! 100% OF US MAKE OUR PETS SOMETHING SPECIAL ON THEIR BIRTHDAYS! ® 62% of us have tasted Force (two THKers said it was 'quite good' with some hot sauce). Collectively we have over 200 nicknames for our pets! You might hear us call one of these names during the day: Willis, Taro the Sparrow, Johnny, Justina Beiber, Brutus Maximus, Miles Buckaroo, Em-Bem, O's, Timba, Nala Bear, Lil' Bug, Jack Stanley, Rolanda, Gracielou, Shen Shen, Foo-Foo, Bees, Wee-Wee, Boosie Boosie Boop, Noodle, Charlie Brown, Lenny, Mildred, Paddle, Chep-owski, Quiz, Gyps-a-lyps, Stinky Lee, Ky-Ky, Mister Moe Moe, Pookie Dookie, Blueberry, Gus-pacho or Piggie-pie. PROPER REAL HEALTHY HONEST NATURAL TASTY ALL PETS R FOOD Made with recognizable, human grade ingredients that are sourced directly from the human food chain – not from rendering plants, or as by-products from other industries. Naturally nutritious and wholesome. It makes a positive impact on long term well-being – and never puts health in jeopardy. DESERVE Produced with care and attention to detail, by people who are passionate about their products. Honest food is prepared under a code of conduct with uncompromising standards and transparency. Free of artificial ingredients like chemical preservatives. It's colorful and vibrant, because it's minimally processed without extreme heat and pressure – but still safe. Food is no good if it tastes terrible! Word on the street is, we're the company many kibble manufacturers try to go up against in palatability trials. VERY BEST INGREDIENTS making "proper" food means using the We always try to raise the bar when choosing our raw ingredients. We respect our planet by choosing organic ingredients whenever we can, and always choose sustainability over cost — like our free range chicken, line caught wild haddock, fair-trade quinoa, non-GMO produce and recyclable, compostable BPA-free packaging. The taste, of course, is very important. There's nothing in our foods that we can't eat ourselves, so we figure, 'why not?!' We believe pets deserve the highest quality foods, and that means nothing that's 'feed' grade, or deemed unsuitable for human consumption. We use only 100% human grade ingredients from suppliers we know and trust. We're foodies (as well as animal lovers) and love to make product development and ingredient purchasing a truly sensory process. It takes more than good ingredients to make a finished product that's truly human grade. Our foods are actually produced in a facility that also makes 'people foods', like bakery and pancake mixes, breakfast cereals and the like (but no other products for pets). Overall, you'll find a much higher quality standard in human food production – it's all hair nets, white coats and stainless steel equipment. Cleanliness standards are higher of course, and the record keeping for safety purposes is far more detailed. Our plant is run by some passionate food production professionals, (with an Honest Kitchen staff member on site!) And we think it ensures the highest possible quality standards, to have a human food manufacturer make our foods. ingredients from overseas conform to all u.s. food safety standards.

Dehydration just removes the moisture from fresh ingredients. It's an ancient method of naturally preserving foods without the need for chemical preservatives or irradiation. When our fruits and vegetables are just at the point of being perfectly ripe, they're carefully harvested, then washed and diced up to make sure they're really easy to digest. Our meats, eggs, leafy greens and fish are gently steamed to help eliminate pathogens, without irradiation. When a recipe calls for potatoes or grains, those are flash-heated to help break down the cellulose, to aid digestion. Our grains are always organic, whole and rolled. Potatoes are flaked, and used in moderation. This might be the most important thing we say in this little book. Dehydration is so gentle, it actually protects the natural pigments (phytonutrients) in our fresh ingredients, SO THEY STAY VIBRANT AND COLORFUL. Have a look at old-fashioned pet food like kibble – it mostly turns brown from all the high heat processing. In colorful dehydrated food, the phytonutrients remain. These amazing compounds not only keep the ingredients looking pretty, they also have important antioxidant benefits, too! We think phytonutrient research is one of the most exciting areas of nutrition research going on in the world today, and it's exploring the role these antioxidants play in protecting against free radical damage, supporting cell communication, eye and heart health, joint function, and loads of other processes that take place in our pets' marvelous, gorgeous bodies! JOLLY HIGH STANDARDS Our manufacturing facility is registered and inspected by the FDA and meets SQF (Safe Quality Foods) Level II standards for human food safety. We already exceed all of the proposed new FDA guidelines, including HACCP food safety regulations and established GMP's (Good Manufacturing Practices). WE'VE GOT Quality control Our foods undergo comprehensive testing as part of our Quality Control program. Finished products are tested on a routine basis for: Bacteria including: salmonella, E-coli, and listeria Yeast and mold Contaminants such as heavy metals and melamine Verification of pH and proximates (protein, fat, fiber and moisture) Taste tests, too!

We also require each and every supplier to provide us with a signed 'Human Food Grade Guarantee' and 'Statement of Quality and Integrity' , which are renewed annually.

Remember this?
Let's drill down a bit to a sort of donations from oil and gas companies to individual House members in 2010:
That goes a long way toward explaining this:
Check out this interview of Rep. Joe Barton (R-TX)—he of apologizing to BP fame—by ABC on Wednesday. Pressed repeatedly by Jon Karl to stake out a position on tax credits enjoyed by offshore oil companies, Barton argued that the subsidies represent equal treatment, and are required to keep the companies like Exxon-Mobil from going out of business.
"Over time if you put so many disincentives against any U.S. manufacturing or production company, or oil and gas exploration company, they'll go out of business," Barton said.
Government subsidies are necessary to keep Exxon from going out of business. Those government subsidies to keep Exxon in business are more important than funding healthcare, funding education, keeping the lights of government on. Good to know. Repealing these tax credits could save the government—could save the American taxpayer—$46 billion in the next decade.
But Joe Barton wants Exxon to be able to screw Americans twice, first at the pump, and then on April 15. Apparently the free market only works for oil and gas companies when the heavy hand of government intervenes.

Your employee wears a frazzled expression--permanently. He never goes anywhere without holding a huge stack of papers and then strides like he's on a mission, even when he's just off to the restroom. When anyone asks "How are you?" he rolls your eyes and says: "Working my **s off!" He commits to dozens of meetings, but then sends regrets that he's "too busy" to attend.

Sept. 3 Ohio 44 … at New Mexico State 24
CFN Analysis: The Ohio secondary might have gotten picked apart, but the offense was almost perfectly balanced with 211 yards through the air and 241 on the ground, and the offense took advantage of every opportunity. Tyler Tettleton got the call in place of Phil Bates, and he came through with two touchdown passes and 40 rushing yards with two scores. No, the air show wasn't anything impressive, and LaVon Brazill only got the ball in his hands three times, but the offense came through while the defense stuffed the NMSU running game cold. The pass rush was strong, led by Nic Barber's two sacks, and the linebackers were excellent, and now the D gets a week off against Gardner-Webb before facing Marshall.
Andrew Manley threw the ball as well as expected, bombing away for 362 yards and two scores, but he got drilled way too often and he didn't get any help from the ground game. The Aggies finished with just six net yards thanks to a porous line that couldn't get anything going and couldn't keep Ohio out of the backfield. Donyae Coleman had a great game with 14 tackles and a fumble recovery, but the NMSU defense needs to find more playmakers and has to generate some semblance of a pass rush. That's going to be tough against Minnesota.
(AP) LAS CRUCES, N.M. -- Ohio used a balanced rushing attack, gaining 241 yards, and its defense held New Mexico State in check for a 44-24 victory in the teams' season opener.
Donte Harden led Ohio with 81 yards on 15 carries and quarterback Tyler Tettleton ran for 42 yards and two TDs.
Tettleton took over the game in the second quarter, scoring on a 1-yard run and throwing a 7-yard scoring pass to Riley Dunlop. In the third quarter, Tettleton tossed an 8-yard TD pass to Donte Foster and scored on another 1-yard run.
Tettleton completed 16 of 28 passes for 153 yards.
New Mexico State rushed for just six yards.
New Mexico State quarterback Andrew Manley threw for 362 yards and two touchdowns. Taveon Rogers scored on a 97-yard kickoff return.

Here's The Deal … There are games that shape a program, and for New Mexico State, this is one of them. Under head coach DeWayne Walker, the Aggies have spent the last few years trying to dig their way out of the Hal Mumme era, and after going 5-20 in two years, they have to come out on the right side of every winnable home game possible. The first half of the season is nice and soft, and a win over Ohio would show that NMSU might finally be ready to turn things around.
Ohio has firmly established itself as a MAC power with the ability to battle for the East title each and every year and with bowl bids always on the table. This year isn't going to be any different as Frank Solich's club has just enough talent and just enough experience to come up with another good season, and with Gardner-Webb up next and with only no games against any 2010 bowl teams until the season finale against Miami University, coming up with a win in Las Cruces should send the Bobcats on their way to another good year.
Why Ohio Might Win: Ohio should be able to run without a problem. The offensive line was okay last year, and now it has the potential to be great. All five starters are back from a line that should be fully jelled, and it should be able to pound away at will on a defensive front that didn't do much against the run – with the Aggies finishing 111th in the nation – and now it gutted with key loses. Top end Donte Savage is gone for the year with academic problems, and tackle Augafa Vaaulu is out after also failing to do enough in the class room. Throw in the loss of key reserve Tommy Stuart to a knee injury, and a promising front four suddenly appears to be a big problem. Ohio won't have to do anything crazy; it should be able to stay conservative and do enough to keep the chains moving.
Why New Mexico State Might Win: It's not like Ohio is going to run away and hide in this game. This should be a good Bobcat offense and the line will be tremendous, but there's little explosion and the passing game needs to be settled with a Phil Bates not exactly a pure passer. On the other side, New Mexico State is far better equipped to bomb away if needed with Andrew Manley a good enough passer to push the Bobcat secondary. The 2009 Hawaii Gatorade Player of the Year is a pro-style bomber who can put the ball all over the field, and while the Bobcat secondary is big and strong, it can be beaten by the better passers. Is Manley ready to be one of those passers? Ohio isn't going to generate too much pressure on him, and he should have time to push the ball down the field.
What To Watch Out For: NMSU will be without to of its key
players on the line, Savage and Vaaulu, and will Ohio
be without its defensive star?
Senior linebacker Noah Keller came into last season as one of the front-runners for the MAC Defensive Player of the Year honor, coming off a 155-tackle 2009, and he was phenomenal over the first three games making 26 tackles with a sack
before getting knocked out for the year after
suffering a foot injury against Ohio State. Now he's
having problems with a bad hamstring, while the
situation has become even worse for the linebacking
corps with starter Eric Benjamin likely out with a
knee injury. If NMSU has any semblance of a running
game, it should be able to take advantage of the
What Will Happen: Is Phil Bates healthy? The Ohio starting
quarterback has been sick for the last week, and
even if he can play he's not likely going to be
100%. The Bobcat offense is going to be a bit
ragged, but it'll be just good enough to pound away
to keep control of the game. NMSU doesn't have the
offensive talent to do much against a good Ohio
defense, even if it's a wounded one.

Soul insights . . .
Over the past three decades, I witness myself, others (people, programs, companies, communities, countries, movements, etc.) hold onto traits that consume more resources than inspiring resource growth. What's your take on shame, worry, guilt, fear, peer – pressure, expectations, history, illness and related life diminishing ways of living?
From what I've learned, that which consumes something may end up consuming itself. That which loves something inspires growth. I seek to grow NOT at the expense of unhealthy consumption. How do I plan to grow? Change! Change on all levels, body, mind and spirit. With every breath I take, I change. I've come to know change as my friend. How friendly is change for you?
My life accomplishments while impressive to some, fade in my heart as I genuinely walk a path of service. What I've done, or who I've had the honor to know is not important! Names, titles and related social dressings cover what we all are inside. Humans. Humans who eat, breath and experience joy and pain. My deepest desire is that each being savors more kindness than they know what to do with!
As you consider your next steps in life, kindly remember to be KIND to yourself. If you've forgotten how to be kind to yourself, should we dance (work together) – we'll start there.
I wish you a most refreshing day . . . every day . . .

Today's Robotic All Floor Vacuum Systems/Robotic Vacuum Cleaners are more advanced from the first models.
In the late 1990s and early 2000s, several companies developed robotic vacuum cleaners. These machines move autonomously, usually in a mostly random pattern across a floor, collecting surface dust and debris into a dustbin.
They usually can navigate around furniture and come back to a docking station to charge their batteries, and a few are able to empty their dust containers into the dock as well.
Most robotic vacuum cleaners are designed for home use, although there are more capable models for operation in offices, hotels, hospitals etc. Most models are equipped with motorized brushes that sweep debris from the floor into a collection bin.
There are those of us who clean once a week, and there are those of us who clean when the in-laws come to visit.
Today's robotic vacuums are more advanced from the first models that you had to track down, stranded somewhere in your house.
Most manufacturers will tell you that a robotic vacuum is meant to supplement a standard, human-pushed vacuum cleaner, not replace it.
They're meant to perform daily or weekly touch-ups to keep your home cleaner in between regular vacuuming cycles. Still, if you're someone who never vacuums in the first place, a little robotic helper can certainly get your floor cleaner than it is right now, and you hardly have to lift a finger.
Robot vacuum cleaners have been leading the industry as domestic helpers for several years now, with huge improvements in functionality, performance and new state of the art features. Simply schedule your robot vacuum cleaner to clean the carpet while you're sleeping and when you get up the next morning your carpets are clean and expertly done.
Advancements in robotic vacuum technology have made impressive changes in our ability to use small robots to sweep, vacuum and clean our floors with the touch of a button.
Imagine how nice it would be to collect dust, dirt, and pet hair from everywhere in the room, easily navigating around and under furniture, along baseboards, wall edges, pets or clutter.
Removing allergens from the air and providing a cleaner home for you and your family is a lot easier with one of these little robots as long as you buy the right one.
Not all vacuum cleaners are the same, and robotic vacuum cleaners are no exception.If you're lost when it comes to knowing a good robot vacuum from a bad one, you're in the right place.
Robotic Vacuum Systems Basics
Robotic vacuum cleaners are designed to collect dirt and debris completely on auto-pilot without any human intervention. These devices operate on rechargeable batteries and are square or round in shape and surprisingly small for what they do.
Although you'll still need a regular vacuum cleaner for stairs and occasional deep-cleaning, robot vacuums are fully capable of cleaning under furniture, wall edges and corners. Today's models have the ability to navigate around people, pets, and random clutter. They can be programmed to avoid drop offs, won't get tangled in electric cords, and can even be taught to stop at an invisible boundary that you define.
But that's not all.Today's robotic vacuum cleaners are able to self dock and recharge themselves before heading back out to clean at whatever time interval you'd like.
Room to room navigation is no problem for some models, and the advanced touch-pad controls make it easy to set up and operate while notifying you when the holding bag is full.
However, for those of us who suffer from allergies these little helpers are worth their weight in gold.
By vacuuming and cleaning around the clock airborne pollutants are dramatically reduced making a big difference in the quality of life for anyone with severe allergy problems.
Automatically Cleans Floors Of Dirt, Dust And Pet Hair
Who would've thought that automating household chores would be so affordable and simple to use. Not only will your new robotic helper expertly vacuum your carpets, it will scan the room first and intelligently identify obstacles, stairs, drop-offs, furniture or anything else (like kids or pets) as it creates its own map of the room before going to work.

Add in the pre-programmed virtual walls set by pushing a few buttons and your loyal robot will happily go from room to room cleaning your floors. But that's not all your little robot can do.
Depending on the model you buy, it will send the debris through a specially designed HEPA air filter as it cleans, leaving the air behind it fresh and dust free.
It will effortlessly clean all those hard to reach spots as it goes under your bed and other furniture in the room. Using its rotating sweeper brush it gets in the corners and along the edge of the wall too.
Your new robot vacuum cleaner will follow any schedule you'd like, seven days a week, night or day… and when it finishes it will return to its home base where it will recharge itself automatically before its next scheduled session. Of course not every model will have all of these features.
Having a robotic helper can certainly make your life a lot easier while creating a cleaner, allergen free environment for you and your children.

Just like the drip, drip, drip of a leaky faucet, we lose productive time by being regularly distracted. Some distractions can't eliminated, but many can... I recently wrote an article for InformIT that was adapted from one of the chapters in the book that Leslie and I co-authored entitled Being Agile. The article discusses a pervasive form of regular distractions that many people have taken for granted nowadays. I thought I'd pass along a link here:
I hope you enjoy the article and that it provides some food for thought... As always, comments and questions are welcome. Thanks!

"Why am I always so hungry on my period? "
health expert AnswerElisabeth Morray
mom AnswerRuth Anne Lemley
peer AnswerJamie Villarreal
Increased appetite is one of the most common symptoms of PMS (premenstrual syndrome). Right before your period starts, your hormone levels shift dramatically. These changes can increase your appetite, or cause you to crave certain kinds of food. Lots of girls find that they eat more carbohydrates when they are on their periods, and others crave fat or salt.
You may find it helpful to eat small, frequent and balanced meals before and during your period. Complex carbohydrates and protein, rather than "junk food", will give you the most satisfaction and energy. Staying hydrated is also very helpful, and can help you feel full. Some women also find that taking calcium and vitamin D supplements prior to their periods can make a difference in their PMS symptoms, including food cravings.
Good question, I can so relate to this - big time! My guess is hormones!? But I leave that to Health Expert Elisabeth, you should check her answer. I can just say you are not alone with the hunger thing. But because it is not a good thing for you to be eating 24/7, and let's say for example I want nachos (because I love them). I try to trick my stomach to still feel happy and full. Have you ever taken your favorite snack and downgraded it to something that isn't as bad? Last month, I went to get some low-fat/salt nachos chips, fat-free sour cream, salsa, low-fat cheese and had a good ol' time! Just consider ways to have your favorite snack and still enjoy it.
I totally know the feeling. I'm absolutely ravenous around my period and all carbs in sight should probably take cover. Hormones, I tell you! While popcorn covered in butter and salt might sound amazing at the time (my weakness!), try to snack on healthier things like fruit or veggies. It's totally okay to indulge every now and then, but trust me, you'll feel better in the long run if you're making wiser choices when it comes to food.

The US FAA has launched the National Air Carrier Evaluation Programme to conduct third party review of maintenance programmes at the country's airlines to ensure proper compliance with regulations.
FAA launched the scheme as a result the disclosure in April 2008 of lapsed fuselage inspections on 46 Southwest Airlines Boeing 737s. In the aftermath of the disclosure, FAA oversight of airlines drew heavy scrutiny from the US Congress.
Agency manager of flight standards certification and surveillance David Gilliom says the programme, which was introduced in January, is being rolled-out gradually, and evaluations of two carriers have begun.
Gilliom explains that once the programme is fully deployed in roughly a year, the teams conducting the reviews should complete in excess of 10 audits annually.
The teams, comprised of FAA inspectors, will vary in numbers depending on the size of an airline. For larger carriers up to 15 inspectors might conduct a review while 6-7 will review compliance of smaller carriers.
The agency's inspectors assigned to the teams will receive specific training to participate in the reviews.
FAA plans to use a number of parameters to select airlines to undergo the audit, says Gilliom, including turnover in personnel.
Eventually all Part 121 carriers will be reviewed under the new scheme, says Gilliom

Multitool Linux: A Book Review
Title: Multitool LinuxAuthors: Michael Schwarz, Jeremy Anderson, Peter Curtis and Steven MurphyPublisher: Addison-WesleyISBN: 0-201-73420-6
Multitool Linux aims to present "practical uses for open-source software". The book can be divided into five parts. The first part (chapter 1) explains what Linux and free/open-source software are, in general terms. All of the other chapters present one or more tools that solve everyday problems using open-source software.
The second part of the book deals with system administration issues. Chapters 2-9 and 11-14 explain why and how to set up NAT, IP masquerading, Samba, Intrusion detection tools, WebMail, Apache and department-level web sites. There are also three chapters covering, in great detail, remote computing via VNC, SSH and e-mail consoles. The last topic discusses issuing commands to a remote system via e-mail and receiving the output in the same way, a useful option if one wants to run something on a home PC from behind the office firewall.
Part three (Chapter 15) is titled "Tools You Should Know", and it is a 15-page overview of basic UNIX tools, such as grep, find, vi, Perl and many more.
The fourth part of the book, corresponding to chapters 10 and 16 to 24, covers user-space programs. Specifically, chapter 10 explains why it is important to digitally sign and encrypt all e-mail with GPG and shows you how to do it.
Other common problems the book addresses, each with its own chapter, include having your PC and Palm-like devices talk to each other, running Windows programs via wine and copying any possible kind of data onto CDs.
The other chapters of this part discuss graphics and multimedia. Music management is extensively covered; scripts and tips are offered to save vinyl albums to CD, generate MP3 play lists, convert a spare PC in a juke-box and much more, from MIDI software to sound effects generation from both GUIs and the command line. Differences between the several audio encoding techniques are introduced as well.
A whole chapter is devoted to speech synthesis and how to have you computer tell you when new mail arrives or when any other task is performed.
Chapters 22 through 24 cover image processing and video production. Chapter 22 is a good overview of the most popular graphics formats, explaining when to choose one or another and why, depending on the final use of the image.
An introduction to the world of 3-D graphics is the focus of Chapter 23. It shows the difference between ray tracers and modelers, and it goes step by step through the creation of a tridimensional logo with textures and other goodies, using PovRay.
Chapter 24 is a good starting point for Linux-based filmmakers. It also touches on simpler concerns, such as how to play back video files. Above all, this chapter lists all the issues to take into account when setting up your own Linux-based home studio. The chapter begins with an overview of what hardware components are needed, how to hook them together and the status of Linux support for video production. Next comes a discussion of the basic components of a good movie (from storyboard to soundtrack) and how to edit and merge them all together with Linux-based software. After the already mentioned video playback section, video CD burning is covered.
The book ends with an interesting afterword by coauthor Michael Schwartz on the future of the software industry, along with short biographies of all the authors.
Overall, Multitool Linux contains many useful tips and tricks. All of the chapters are up to date and written with a lot competence and enthusiasm; there is a lot to learn from this book. In spite of this, the separate parts are not knit together well, and it is not clear what the main audience of the book should be.
What I called the second part is targeted at system administrators with some previous IT experience, but the fourth part is devoted to multimedia desktop processing--although both fields are equally interesting, they don't really overlap. The book also would have benefitted from more content editing. For example, the content in Chapter 15 should have appeared in the book much sooner. In addition, some material (SSH, kernel compiling, etc.) is repeated in several different places.

Former Border Patrol union head denies fraud
"When we submitted expense vouchers, he never questioned anything for T.J. If we submitted something and forgot a receipt, he'd circle it and send it back to us. He didn't do that with T.J.," he said.
Bonner said McCubbin's remarks as "whining."
"(The union) definitely threw me under the wheels of the bus," he said.
Bonner, who lives near San Diego in the small border town of Campo, was the union's voice at a time when the agency grew to more than 20,000 agents and put up hundreds of miles of fencing and other barriers along the U.S. border with Mexico. His outspoken advocacy for better working conditions repeatedly won him re-election.
The union, which is part the American Federation of Government Employees and AFL-CIO, has 14,000 members who pay monthly dues of $56, according to the indictment.
Bonner allegedly signed off on policies that benefited him and other officers, such as clothing allowances and up to $800 a year to buy gifts for spouses and children. One policy allowed union officers to claim lost wages for Sundays, holidays, nights and overtime if they provided proof to the secretary-treasurer that they were doing union work.
The indictment listed $87,863 in false claims for lost wages from 2007 to 2010 and $48,067 in other false expense reports during that same period. It says he "obtained hundreds of thousands of dollars in union funds to which he was not entitled."
"Siphoning hundreds of thousands of dollars from hard-working fellow Border Patrol agents, many of whom put their lives on the line every day to protect this country, is a particularly troubling form of corruption that must be addressed," said Laura Duffy, the U.S. attorney in San Diego.

I have been encountering a lot of magical thinking recently when talking with law firm partners about Legal Project Management. One partner, hoping that the IT and KM folks can simply buy a tech solution so that he could avoid making any real changes to the way he manages matters, engaged in extreme magical thinking when he asked, "isn't there just some software where I can click one button and it manages everything?" He just wants to keep doing what he's always done and have technology somehow make the result different.
