Over the past several years, privately run, publicly funded charter schools have been sold to the American public as an education alternative promising better student achievement, greater parent satisfaction, and more vibrant school communities. But are charter schools delivering on their promise? Or are they just hype as critics contend, a costly experiment that is bleeding tax dollars from public schools? In this book, Jack Buckley and Mark Schneider tackle these questions about one of the thorniest policy reforms in the nation today.
Using an exceptionally rigorous research approach, the authors investigate charter schools in Washington, D.C., carefully examining school data going back more than a decade, interpreting scores of interviews with parents, students, and teachers, and meticulously measuring how charter schools perform compared to traditional public schools. Their conclusions are sobering.
Buckley and Schneider show that charter-school students are not outperforming students in traditional public schools, that the quality of charter-school education varies widely from school to school, and that parent enthusiasm for charter schools starts out strong but fades over time. And they argue that while charter schools may meet the most basic test of sound public policy--they do no harm--the evidence suggests they all too often fall short of advocates' claims.
With the future of charter schools--and perhaps public education as a whole--hanging in the balance, this book supports the case for holding charter schools more accountable and brings us considerably nearer to resolving this contentious debate.

Lucas Group Annual Hiring Survey Finds No Signs of Slowing Down
According to the survey, business growth and hiring trends continue to increase and reflect positive hiring projections for the next 12 months. In a significant increase over 2005, 68 percent of those surveyed predict strong to very strong company growth. Of almost every industry represented in the survey, 50 percent or more predict strong or very strong growth in the next year.
Within the next year, 63 percent of respondents plan to hire accounting and/or finance personnel. Of the companies projecting hiring, 86 percent feel hiring needs are attributed to company growth, attrition, or a combination of both. Companies are challenged, however, to find qualified candidates in positions, including senior-level to manager-level accounting, audit, financial analysts and entry-level accountants.
"We are still seeing a shortage of quality talent in accounting and finance," said Jennings. "With our tenure, market knowledge, and international reach, we have exposure to the best talent, but with demand outpacing supply, quality talent is hard find in certain areas."
Shortage of qualified talent aligns with the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) findings, which report that employment for financial analyst and personal finance advisor positions is expected to increase faster than average through 2014. The BLS also reports that the demand will continue to increase for finance managerial occupations as a result of regulatory reform and expansion of the economy.

NFL Schedule and Fantasy
Apr 25, 2014 10:41 AM EST
With the schedule released, I'm already seeing people talk about fantasy football playoff matchups and strength (or ease) of schedule. Don't people know by now that teams' schedule strength can't be based solely on last year? There is way too much change and turnover every offseason to say that you will take certain players because of their fantasy playoff schedule. Ignore the schedule! Disagree?

This game was developed / designed to not promote grouping. I think what people dont understand is that this game is a themepark and it funnels you along a predetermined path- the developers control your path in this game - you have very few choices as to what your going to do. It does not promote grouping- if it did, there would be lower level dungeons and in world events or WvW you would join as a raid like in rift so at least you can see your comrads health / name. This game promotes anonimity except in a very few instances - dungeons - which dont happen till half waty through the leveling cap.

And that's typical. In LOTRO it took SIX GUILDS before I found a social guild. In DDO it took four. In Fallen Earth it took two. In Eve Online it took two. In GW1 it took one and it's the same guild I'm a member of in GW2. In SWTOR it took two.
I've also been officer's in guilds. I've seen them wax and wane. I've seen them be social or not-social. I've seen them break into cliques or lose focus and break up. I've seen them go from 'raid heavy' to 'pug yourself' because nobody shows up...
Game mechanics have LITTLE, if anything, to do with the social 'talking' aspects of guilds.

I would agree with you that some guilds are more social than others and it usually takes a couple to find the right fit. However, I diagree with your assesment that it hs little to do with the game mechanics. I think the way a game is developed / the game mechanics have a lot to do with how social you are within a game. If you have no reason to group or join a guild then that is a game mechanic issue. If you can solo the whole game minus a few dungeons and never group / guild like many posters have said then its a game design / mechanic issue.

When I played MMO's, part of the reason why we grouped was the environment around us. You cannot "force" players to do something when there is no incentive to do it.
You know its funny, this post is so ridiculous it almost sounds sarcastic. Except its not.

Trinity/forced grouping games, for which you bash this game constantly, don't do any better. I've played too many MMOs over the years to fall for that kind of blather.
This game has social ties and social events built into it including 5-man dungeons, which you constantly bash, WvWvW, which you constantly bash. These are primary examples of non-solo content. Problem is, you just troll/hate the game and refuse to see that you have no case. You just want to complain. And your history within these forums demonstrates it.

Maybe it's "Spam Recruiting Are Us..." ;) I've joined those kinds of guilds when I've started into a new MMO. Failure to thrive is at least 50% in my experience.
Even helped to build a couple (Eve Online & Mabinogi). The churn is incredible. Eventually, you can build a solid, respectable guild. But it takes MONTHS AND MONTHS to get there as most of the people you recruit have no social ties to each other.

I agree that PvE specifically could use more socialization tools and content types that cultivate teams/friendships. As I said in a recent post, the game is great at getting strangers to play together, bad at evolving it beyond strangers playing nicely with strangers. The explorable mode dungeons are hectic and fast, DEs the same, there's no content beyond story arcs and story mode dungeons atm that really allow for much communication or socializing.
There needs to be more PvE situations that encourage some degree of socialization, it shouldn't all rest on the shoulders of players to go out of their way to make it happen, the gameplay should be somewhat conducive to it.
However, I don't forsee a mass exodus due to this as you predict, in fact our server seems just as busy as ever. After hitting 80 we've started alts and are still finding every zone on the way up populated - which I wasn't expecting, I expected a ghost town to some degree. So that was a nice bonus.
Some non fans I'm sure will be crying out that this is the downfall and sensationalizing as these boards do, but in honesty they just need to take a look at increasing meaningful and longer term player interaction. Otherwise, loving it.

I never said that forced grouping would solve the problem. I just am pointing out that there is no reason to group / guild- as many posters have pointed out. You dont have to go to the extreme with everything. I dont want forced grouping. I just want a reason to group...

What MMO encourages players to play together for not just group only type quests but for every quest out there? GW2 not only brings players together to fight alongside one another more than any other MMO i have ever played but puts in systems to make players WANT to play with others while doing normal quests by eliminating grieving, mob tagging, shared nodes, ect. Hate the game all you want but no other MMO i ever played encourages players to play with other players throughout the entire game than this one. It's an ACTION based combat system obviously you aren't going to have as much time to sit and talk through fights but plenty will talk after the fight all you have to do is talk it's not a hard concept. I never found "forced" communication enhanced the social aspect of any game and mostly caused more frustration than good.
You can just see how angry some people are getting over the dungeons because it requires a tiny bit of "communication" imagine if every DE required the same? would be mass exodus here.
I angered the clerk in a clothing shop today. She asked me what size I was and I said actual, because I am not to scale. I like vending machines 'cause snacks are better when they fall. If I buy a candy bar at a store, oftentimes, I will drop it... so that it achieves its maximum flavor potential. --Mitch Hedberg

I found it funny last night when I logged in for an hour. I run up to a broken DE (shocker, only see those everywhere past the newbie zones) and I see 2 other people running around checking it out. Then one of them says in a say "No one ever talks in this f&%king game!" and I stared at him for a moment then ran off.
No one does talk, no one is social in this game. Why would you be? There is no need to. Even in WvW only about 5-8 of the people in there talk, everyone else just runs to whereever the action is and shoots at things.
It is like playing a single player game with NPCs that move around more.

Sounds like a guild that isn't "family" like, I'm part of a guild that's been around for 10 years now with 400-500 members, unfortunately SWTOR kind of ripped some of us apart due to how the game was for us so we're down to about 200 or so now, but in GW2 we've been grouping every night looking for events, skillpoint challenges and WvW, talking in guild chat and ventrilo, it's like the old days again. I do notice new recruits we've been picking up aren't as social, so it isn't the guild's nor the game's fault, it's the players' fault- the anti-social culture is growing and there isn't much you can do about it.

Ah yes, blame the designers for people not putting in much effort to make the game social. Blasphemy.
This game honestly gives more incentive to grouping than any other MMO I have played. There is no sharing of loot. You get your own loot. So, if you were like me, you teamed up with other people to play Diablo 3, so if one of you got a drop for the other you would share it. And since noone shares loot and you get your own, you can group to your hearts content without a single problem arising.
At the same time, they won't force you to group in the game since it is meant to be a casual game, not a game like FFXI, where groups were a necessity. This doesn't make the game less social, it just basically says to the unsocial that they are not forced to group just to level and do what they want in their play time.
Originally posted by Sentime
Because you need to group and do things together to be social? I assume you still talk to each other and converse about the game and other things though. That's being social. Forcing a group or to have to do content (outside instances) together is not making the game any more social.

That is as bad as the argument when people ask for harsh death penalties "Just force harsh penalties on yourself if you want them." It fully lacks any understanding on how human minds work.
A game DIRECTLY affects how social the players will be. You can say it is the players fault if you really want, just as you could say it is the shoppers fault for sending manufacturing overseas because they all shopped at Walmart to get the lowest prices. They didn't HAVE to shop at Walmart, they could have spent more at other stores. But to blame the shoppers is a silly and fundamentally wrong approach.
I've been social to at least some degree in every other MMO I've played. I formed groups for dungeon runs, talked to people, talked in region chats etc. In GW2 I do none of it. Sure you can say I'm choosing to not be social but it is a direct response to how the game is designed. I can "group" up with other people by just jumping in and killing mobs. I can help others by running over and reviving them without saying a word. There is no point in striking up a conversation and you can move around zones so quickly and easily getting something started in map chat is pointless. It is simply designed to not spur social aspects in the people who play the game.
Even in WoW, once they added the dungeon finder tool the amount of talking/friend making/any social aspects dropped dramatically. You simply pushed a button, it stuck you in a group for the dungeon you needed and you all crushed through it without saying a word.
When most gas stations switched to self service and you pay for the gas at the pump with a credit card, do you go inside to be social to the guy working there even though you don't need to interact with him. Or, to use your philosophy, do you CHOOSE to just get out get your gas, get back into your car and leave without being social with anyone?
Ever wonder why millions of people walk by each other in the cities each day, sit next to each other on the subway/bus each day and yet don't say a word to each other? They're all just choosing to not be social, right? Or is it the environment that directs people to be that way?
Most human social interactions come from forcing incidents, both in the real world and in a video game. It is, to repeat, silly to assume it is just that fact that millions of gamers are determined to be anti-social in the virtual world as opposed to game design directing people away from social interactions.

The topic is not about the need for a group or forced grouping, it's about the guild having no reason to play together, and it's correct, the game lacks guild content.
It has tons of solo content, a little group content and will appeal to those type of players, but for guild content ... not so much.

PLEASANT HILL, TEXAS (Eastland County). Pleasant Hill is at the intersection of Farm Road 2526 and U.S. Highway 183, eight miles south of Cisco in southwestern Eastland County. The community was settled in the 1880s on Dead Horse Creek. It had a one-room schoolhouse by early 1892, when a group of settlers met there to organize the Pleasant Hill Baptist Church. A cemetery was in use by 1904, and the church had fifty-six members that year. Church members met in the schoolhouse until 1905, when a church building was completed. The church building burned down later that same year and was rebuilt in 1906. By 1938 Pleasant Hill was sending its children to Cisco schools, though the Pleasant Hill school wasn't officially consolidated with Cisco until 1943. In 1940 the community had a church, the school building, three businesses, and a number of scattered dwellings. In 1944 the school building was purchased by the church, and a new church was constructed out of lumber from the old church and the school. In 1946 the community received electrical service. The population was ten in 1964, twenty-one in 1968, and fifteen from 1970 through 2000. The church and cemetery still remained in 1992.

Even if your mom isn't gluten free, this nourishing and delicious cake is treat for all! There is a bit of sweetener in the form of 1/4 cup of molasses, which still has minerals and fiber in tact, so it won't produce a hefty spike in blood sugar. The quality fat and protein from the eggs, nuts, flax meal, coconut, and hemp seeds make it a nutrient dense and delicious snack for later.
Quinoa Brunch Cake Recipe
Whisk in a bowl:
1 1/2 cups quinoa flakes cereal
1/2 cup brown rice flour
1/4 cup tapioca starch
1/4 cup garbanzo flour
3/4 cup almond meal flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon Himalayan salt
1 teaspoon xanthan gum
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
¼ cup hemp seeds
In a large mixing bowl, beat to combine:
2 large organic pasture-raised eggs
1/2 cup virgin coconut oil
1/4 cup Blackstrap molasses
2 teaspoons Real vanilla extract
1/4 cup orange juice
Add the dry ingredients into the wet and beat to combine.
Stir in by hand:
1 cup grated carrots (use food processor)
1/2 cup dried unsweetened coconut
1/2 cup of goji berries
1 cup nuts
Directions: Pour the batter into a prepared 10x13-inch baking pan and spread evenly. Place the pan into the center of the oven and bake until the center is fairly firm to touch and a wooden pick inserted into the center emerges clean, about 25 to 35 minutes. Cool the cake on a wire rack and don't slice until fully cooled down.

2) SAN speed of media server to Storage device
3) Load / in the network/servers/ and stoarages(tape of disk)
4) Buffer sizes.
5) Netbackup versions, and the files that are taking backup.
if the files are very small in size and large in number , it may cause the delay...
so please start isolating one by one..
I presume the backups are going to tape ?
1. Did this every work properly of has it always been slow.
2. If it did work properly, what has changed ?
3. On the media server, what vaules are in these files :
If the files do not exist, create them and put 252144 in the SIZE_DATA_BUFFERS
and 128 in the NUMBER_DATA_BUFFERS
If the files do exist AND other backups are running fine, do not change them.
4. In the job details for one of the slow backups in activity monitor, there should be some lines that look a bit like this :
Waited for full/empty buffer x times, delayed y times
Please post these lines up.
If the lines are not there, then please enable the bptm log on the media server, and the line will be found in the log (the backup has to complete successfully).
... when we have verified with network team they have confirmed there was no issues with network speed.
It does not matter WHERE in the world you are - has anyone EVER heard a network admin NOT saying: there are no issues with network speed ??
We received the same response, even when showing output of traceroute that took just about forever as well as long delays with continuous pings...
Have you tried to do a network copy of some data (+- 1GB) across the WAN using ftp or some other network copy method?
Always a good idea to test the data path with OS tools to eliminate the backup product...
Supporting Storage Foundation and VCS on Unix and Windows as well as NetBackup on Unix and Windows

Strongly agree with this.. because we are all from one.. How interesting and wonderful...
There was the first man - Adam.. :)
You know there was the first computer and now how many computers are in the world..
Israel who had the name of Jacob has one country which is Israel.. How well-organized people in the country..
As a computer has a manual, human has the Bible.
That's why we should understand network guys world as we could do same thing. Hahaha..
Do you know why human has many languages? :D
Have a happy X-mas and New Year 2013 whether or not today is the end of the world!

I'm agree too. First try to transfer a 1 GB file by ftp in order to get transfer ratios and tell us how it works:
To make 1 GB file:
mkfile 1g /tmp/1GBfile
Ftp to media server:
-Launch ftp in host cliente (Source client - Destination Media Server)
put /tmp/1GBfile /tmp/1GBfile
-Launch ftp in Media Server (Source client - Destination Media Server)
get /tmp/1GBfile /tmp/1GBfile
No, just use real files - you can have issues where the particular files types cause the issues.
You only need a 30 - 40 MB file, if this FTPs in less than a second, networks probably ok.
I agree with the others, just wan't feeling brave enough to sujjest it's probably the network.
The log lines I mentioned will narrow it down, but you usually end up running ftp tests anyway.
Other options are to log a call with Symantec and ask them to run AppCritical. This will find any network issues.

MUMBAI: With less than a week to go for the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) general conference in Vienna, Atomic Energy Commission Chairman Anil Kakodkar is keeping his options open on discussing safeguards with the nuclear watchdog as he is yet to receive clear-cut instructions on the issue from the Centre.
"I have not received any indication on the topic [from the Centre] till date," Dr. Kakodkar told PTI here. He is scheduled to make his speech at the annual meeting on September 19, two days after the conference begins. He admitted last fortnight that there were some "constraints" related to talks on India-specific safeguards but refused to elaborate.
Informal discussions
Sources close to Dr. Kakodkar, however, said the India-U.S. nuclear deal might come up for informal discussions at the conference.
Though the Centre is seeking support for the deal from various quarters in spite of the Left's reservations on it, Dr. Kakodkar has not got any information on going ahead with discussions at the IAEA on safeguards pertaining to the deal.
The Left parties have made it clear that they would take into consideration the findings of the UPA-Left committee on the nuclear deal before proceeding on the issue of operationalising the agreement.
Scientists in favour of the deal are hoping that the Centre may come up with directions just before the IAEA conference to allow Dr. Kakodkar to go ahead with talks on the safeguards.
Deal being watched
Nuclear industrialists in the country and around the globe are closely watching the deal, a top official of the Nuclear Power Corporation of India said.
"We and our counterparts across the world, who are waiting for India's integration with the global nuclear renaissance, are closely watching the political mood in India," he said.
Asked whether India would participate in IAEA's two-day scientific forum, which has a session on nuclear energy for developing countries, he said it was part of the nuclear power community's agenda.
The scientific forum will be attended by Bhabha Atomic Research Centre Director S. Banerjee.
The IAEA general conference will also be attended by Atomic Energy Regulatory Board Chairman S.K. Sharma who is also a member of the International Nuclear Safety Group. — PTI

Chicago 9-1-1's call center operations floor is undergoing a $31 million renovation, but employees say the changes are inhibiting emergency response. However, officials who acknowledge the challenges posed by the renovation say there have been no serious issues and they are proceeding with great caution to ensure each phase of installation is functional. "We want to make sure it's absolutely, 100 percent functional before we move to each sequence," said Gary Schenkel, who directs the city's Office of Emergency Management and Communications.

WASHINGTON (AP) — After his Boston Celtics held the Washington Wizards to 1-for-14 shooting at the start, then scoreless for nearly 3 minutes at the end, coach Doc Rivers spoke about "great defensive intensity."
Pierce's late 3 lifts Celtics over Wizards 89-86
"Defense," he said, as if to underline the point, "is exhausting."
Wizards guard Jordan Crawford offered another explanation for the way things went in Boston's 89-86 victory over Washington on Saturday night.
"We're forgetting plays," Crawford said.
A night after what Rivers called a "flat game," the Celtics used defensive stands early — Washington's only scoring in the first 8 minutes came on Kevin Garnett's goaltending call — and late, plus Paul Pierce's 27 points, including a key 3 down the stretch, to edge the Wizards and improve to 1-2.
Washington dropped to 0-2 after its home opener in front of a sellout crowd of 20,308 that occasionally included folks chanting "Let's go, Celtics!" Washington is still without two starters: point guard John Wall, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2010 draft, and center Nene.
"Our starts are so bad, you don't know if you're ever going to see daylight again. I didn't know if the ... sun was coming up tomorrow. I truly didn't," Wizards coach Randy Wittman said with a chuckle after watching his club fall behind Boston 17-2 at the outset. "That's how bad it was to me, sitting there."
Bradley Beal, the No. 3 overall pick this year, missed all five of his shots and scored two points for the Wizards, while Crawford led the hosts with 21 points despite hurting his left ankle in the second half.
"I wasn't involved, really," Beal said. "I wasn't asserting myself. I wasn't aggressive."
Another Wizards reserve, Kevin Seraphin, played after being sidelined by a right calf injury for their season opener and made his first seven shots, finishing with 19 points. But Seraphin also threw the ball away with Washington down one point and 28 seconds left.
Cartier Martin scored five consecutive points during a 16-4 run that put Washington ahead 86-84 on Seraphin's turnaround 12-footer with a little under 3 minutes remaining.
"You don't want to give teams any life," Pierce said. "Today we gave them life and they had a shot at us."
But with thousands in the stands asking for "De-fense! De-fense!" Pierce made a 3-pointer to put Boston back in front with 2½ minutes left.

Audi "coup" by Thjnk
Rating: 5.0
campaignlive.co.uk, Friday, 15 October 2004 12:00AM
The food conglomerate has invited its entire roster of agencies - ZenithOptimedia, Mediaedge:cia, John Ayling & Associates and AMS - plus one non-roster agency, to pitch for its centralised business. The pitches are being held at the beginning of November, with a result expected shortly afterwards.
ZenithOptimedia holds the bulk of the account, including Allied Bakeries and Ryvita; MEC looks after ABF's sugar business; Ayling the Twining Teas business and AMS holds Blue Dragon foodstuffs.
The creative account, which is not affected by the review, is also split between a roster of agencies. Most recently, the Ryvita business moved from Walsh Trott Chick Smith to Mortimer Whittaker O'Sullivan. J. Walter Thompson handles the Allied Bakeries business, recently launching a Kingsmill campaign featuring Elvis Presley.
Associated British Foods is majority-owned by the Anglo-Canadian Weston dynasty, a branch of which also owns Fortnum & Mason and Selfridges.
The company recently announced that it was on track to deliver strong second-half growth despite high raw-material costs and additional pension charges in its report due next month. Reports suggest it could be up by as much as 13 per cent year on year.

|Road network
The A4018 is an A-road from Bristol to a junction with the M5 motorway at Cribbs Causeway. It is one of the four principal roads which link Bristol city centre to the motorway network (the others being the M32 motorway, The A38 and the Portway).
The original route of the A4018 went from Bristol to Avonmouth via Durdham Down and Shirehampton Road, the main road between Bristol and Avonmouth before the Portway was opened in 1926.[1] By the 1940s only the route from the centre of Bristol to Durdham Down was designated the A4018, and the remainder of the route had been redesignated the B4054.[2] In 1959 Passage Road was widened and rebuilt, and by 1962 the route of the A4018 was extended from Durdham Down to Cribbs Causeway along the former route of the B4055 (Westbury Road), unclassified roads (Falcondale Road and Passage Road) and a further part of the B4055 (Cribbs Causeway),[3] linking with the New Filton Bypass which ran from Cribbs Causeway to the A38 north of Patchway. In December 1971 the New Filton Bypass was incorporated into the M5 motorway,[4] and the A4018, by then dualled from Cribbs Causeway to Westbury-on-Trym, became the principal road linking the motorway to west Bristol.
The road runs for 6.1 miles (9.8 km) from the centre of Bristol to the M5 motorway at Cribbs Causeway. The route includes Park Street and Whiteladies Road. It then passes over part of Durdham Down on Westbury Road, then along Falcondale Road and Passage Road through Westbury-on-Trym and Brentry. The final part of the A4018 is Cribbs Causeway, off which is the unusually-named locale of Catbrain.

When Williams was older he got really angry in an interview when the interviewer kept referring to his eyesight and his "innate talent" hitting. Ted then told him about hour after hour of practice as a youth, hitting until his hands broke open and the blisters bled. Swinging in front of a mirror for hours to perfect his swing. Spending every nickel he could earn in his teens to pay kids to shag balls for him so he could just hit ball after ball for hours on end. I read there is threshold for any art - it begins at about 10,000 hours of dedicated practice to achieve mastery and in some arts, like sports, it is also handicapped by age barriers. Williams, DiMaggio, Rose, many others, pay that price but lots and lots of very talented youths never pay the price they need to pay in practice and dedication. Williams was very critical of many younger players for not being dedicated enough and was a bit bristly at the thought his ability was somehow the product of some natural gifts when he saw it as the product of a lot of hard darn work and painstaking study. The same overwhelming dedication and practice theme lies behind other "gifted" hitters like Votto, Gwynn, Boggs, Rose....almost all pro athletes work hard but these guys take the work ethic to extremes that even most pros find ridiculous - and they excelled because of it.

Want A Highly Portable Solar Lantern?by Laurie Kay Olson
We have become so used to having light at the flip of a switch that it can be a little alarming to find that the power has gone out. It can even be a little challenging when we go camping and know that we are going to be dealing with darkness. With a Solar Air Lantern we can be prepared to light things up again in a different way with an array of LED lights and a reflector.
Want A Sofa That Doubles As A Tent?by Laurie Kay Olson

The design team of Álvaro Goula and Pablo Figuera has created the Orwell, a combination sofa, bed, and "cabin" to give you a greater sense of privacy right in your living room.

Want A New Way To Hang Up Your Keys?by Laurie Kay Olson
If there is one thing that most of us have in common it is the innate ability to lose our keys. Sure, you can hang one of those standard key holders by the door, but that doesn't always work when you stumble in the door dead tired from a long day of work and running errands. Trying to get your key ring onto one of those hooks can be a real challenge. The Key Target offers a different option that allows you to just toss your keys at the key holder and there they stay.
Want The Best Bed Ever To Put Up The Relatives This Holiday Season?by Laurie Kay Olson
With the holidays so close you could trip over them you may be wondering how you are going to handle the extra guests who will be favoring you with their company this year. Gone are the days of cots and roll-away beds. In more recent years people have been resorting to air mattresses since they don't require as much room to store. However they can still leave you close enough to the floor to feel it once in a while. With the SoundAsleep Dream Series Air Mattress you have the comfort of both mattress and box spring for better sleep.
Want To Turn You Bathroom Into Your Bath Realm?by Laurie Kay Olson
The toilet has long been referred to as the "throne." Probably to go along with the tired old cliché that a man's home is his castle. Still, what fun it would be to turn your bathroom into your "bath realm" since that is where the throne is. Images of knights, fair maidens, and dragons may abound. You could start with this A Knight To Remember Gothic Bath Tissue Holder and be the envy of all you survey.

"Loved our save the dates !! The design was beautiful & quality was excellent. All of guests LOVE them and have commented on how fun they are for a NYC wedding. Ordering and communication with the designer for minor altercations was a breeze ."
"The card is classically beautiful with the slight antique look. I used the Signature paper which turned out wonderfully. The card felt substantial and I predict that it will last well and look great on people's refrigerators."
"This was a great experience all together!! I love how I was able to make it just for us! There was no issues with anything on the card and we are happy to recommend Wedding Paper Divas!"
"We love our save the dates and plan to use this design for all our invitations, etc. Being an older couple (late 40's) planning a second wedding, we've been trying to find a look that was elegant but not too formal and weren't interested in using photos. These are perfect! The design is so lovely and has the look of a painted canvas, and the quality of the paper was top notch and reasonably priced. An excellent product!"
"I really loved the design of this card; it was simple, yet elegant and I liked being able to personalize with my wedding color - blush. I chose blush on the back as well; the designer even added my wedding website to the back! I chose the basic, standard paper and it is a nice matte finish that does not feel cheap at all. Quality of the photo could have been a little better, but I love the look of the card so much that it doesn't even seem to matter! Also, I recommend the rounded edges - just a little more classically elegant than the cut shown in the display photo."

Best winter gloves I've owned.
My sister got me these as an early Xmas present, so I've been using them almost all winter, skiing, riding my bike to class, or having snowball fights. They're fantastically warm, wind and water resistant, and awesome looking. Everybody who sees them goes "Whoa!" and wants to try them on. And they've been like iron nails so far, lots of use, and little sign of it. However, I do wish that not only it had a removable liner, but that it also had division inbetween the middle, ring, and pinky fingers, to stop them from getting super sweaty from being by each other. However, I solve this by wearing a pair of Smartwool glove liners under the Lobster Mitten, which has worked swimmingly.
TL;DR, awesome and warm glove, totally worth every penny.

My son started sailing with us when he was 4 months old. We never used netting. He had to wear a harness and tether whenever he was on deck until he was a strong enough swimmer to be able to take care of himself if he fell overboard. At that time, he didn't have to wear the harness, but he still had to wear a pfd whenever he was on deck or on the docks. You'll know instinctively when they are mature enough so that you can let them walk around the docks without a pfd, somewhere around 11-12 years. IMHO, the netting is relatively useless. A toddler is too unsteady to be allowed on the foredeck unattended. Once they are able to walk, they quickly become able to pull themselves over the lifelines. You need to keep him or her close to you until the child can swim, and the only way to keep them close is with a tether, so they can't get away in those moments when your attention is drawn away.
It might sound like you'll miss out on a lot of fun by having to keep them so close, but my son was frequently in the cockpit when we were racing. At about 2 years, he plopped over the side just as we were rounding up to start a race. I reached down and grabbed his tether, and swung him back into the cockpit, and we hit the start perfectly. I often think that if he hadn't created a little drag and slowed us down a bit, we might have been over early. You'll still have plenty of fun. It'll just be different.

At first I was ohms testing the wrong igniter ! I'm old school...so I assumed the drawer under the over was a broiler ( like my Moms was ) WRONG ! I was testing the parts on the roof of the oven instead of the ones under the pan on the bottom ! anyway, the lower igniter ohmed over 1 mega ohms. the spec I found was 60 to 1K ohms. Replaced the lower igniter and the oven works fine ! Thanks Part Select...great prices ! fast delivery ! That's why I bought the drip pans as well ! I will be a repeat customer !

Mine Made Paradise Adventure Park ATV Ride Photo Gallery
Our little party was a great example of how enthusiasts come to enjoy the exciting terrain, spending money with local businesses the entire time.
MotorcycleUSA heads to Knott County, Kentucky, to get a preview of the brand new Mine Made Paradise Adventure Park.
Everyone seems to win with the land agreements in the tri-state region. Does this look like a ravaged mining operation?
Equestrian activities and Kentucky go hand-in-hand, and the four-legged beasts are just as welcome as the four-wheeled. This Mule, however, feeds on gasoline.
Kawasaki brought a fleet of ATVs and UTVs to explore the Mine-Made Paradise Adventure Park in Kentucky.
We found plenty of water crossings to splash through.
Even the difficult trails weren't very technical. We're sure the network will expand and look forward to more advanced routes.
Because we were on four-wheels, we never got a chance to sample the single track, but the multi-use routes were entertaining.
Our Kawasaki utility vehicles were excellent for sampling the park, and we're glad we did.
Unlike some of the Eastern trail systems we've experienced, all the trails are open for two-way traffic, which we prefer.
Trail markings were still being installed, but are displayed with a standard black, blue and green color system to designate levels of difficulty.
We visited Mine-Made Paradise with our friends at Kawasaki and headed straight for the trails on a mixture of Brute Force ATVs, and Mule and Teryx side-by-sides.

Arizona Cardinals TE Jake Ballard retires from NFL
The Arizona Cardinals' crowded tight end room just got a little roomier with veteran Jake Ballard announcing his retirement from the NFL Wednesday.
Ballard, who appeared in eight games for the Cardinals last season, released the following statement via ProFootballTalk.com:
"Yesterday I made the difficult decision to retire from the game of football," Ballard said. "I love this game and have put my heart and soul into it for as long as I can remember. After sustaining a serious knee injury while playing for the New York Giants in the Super Bowl, my body never felt the same. Having a quality of life after football is very important to me and I have witnessed it taken away from others. I will miss the game tremendously, but I am ready for this next chapter in my life. It was an honor and a privilege to play for the NY Giants, New England Patriots, and most recently the Arizona Cardinals. I met amazing people from all of my teammates, to opponents, to trainers, to coaches, to owners, and everyone in between. I thank you for allowing me to be a part of your fraternity and I wish you all nothing but success."
Thanks for all the support! The pain was just too much. I had to start thinking about my future! I've been blessed! #ontothenextone— Jake ballard (@TheJakeBallard) August 6, 2014
The Cardinals placed Ballard on the reserve/retired list. Prior to this announcement he was listed as a first string tight end on the team's initial depth chart.
Ballard, 26, caught seven passes for 75 yards with two touchdowns last season. In his career, the former Ohio State Buckeye appeared in 22 games, tallying 45 receptions for 679 yards and six touchdowns.
Ballard's retirement leaves the Cardinals with tight ends John Carlson, Rob Housler, Troy Niklas, Darren Fells and Andre Hardy on the roster.

WASHINGTON, July 11
On the two big stories consuming the Gang of 500 -- the terror attacks that hit London and the SCOTUS drama -- here are our thoughts:
We have nothing particularly smart or original to say about how what happened in London will affect American politics.
Most everything depends on a series of complicated judgments about mass national psychology and symbolism.
As they say on cable, only time will tell on this one.
As for that other story -- well, on that one, we have some stuff we would like to share with the class.
If you aren't a reporter working the story, an activist, or a would-be source, you can't possibly fathom how many person-hours have been spent in the last 125 hours playing the retirement guessing game. If the Chief doesn't announce his retirement in the next 72 hours, someone needs to go back and reconstruct where all the rumors came from.
For all the media breathlessness over how much money, preparation, and Boyden-versus-Ralph contretemps are involved, the REAL story is going to be how each side tries to impact public opinion.
Actually, strike that (and reverse it!). The REAL REAL story is that the press is so anxious for a battle that it ignores a basic reality: confirmation fights are only genuine fights if there is a chance that a nominee might not be confirmed and/or that members of the president's party might vote against him.
For all the huffing and puffing on the right (and in the Washington Post today. . .), does anyone really, truly think that a single Republican Senator would vote against a nominee for the Highest Court in the Land put forward by George W. Bush? (And, yes, we are including the Honorable Alberto Gonzales in that rhetorical challenge. . .)
So -- barring something we can't imagine -- the ONLY way the President's nominee(s) could be stopped would be by a filibuster. Neither side knows who would win the public hearts and minds if it came to that, but there ARE two things that can be said: (a) the left-wing groups overrate the chances of such a thing happening; and (b) the Republicans are more confident of winning that PR war than are the Democrats.
Also, allow us to do our best Bernie Goldberg imitation and posit that many in the press (with its bias towards conflict, mainly) are hoping the President nominates someone (or someones) who is deemed "out of the mainstream" by both Nan Aaron and Evan Bayh; who has a rich history of questionable land deals, complex investments, and overturned opinions; and who can instantly be characterized/caricatured as a cross between Robert Bork, Jerry Falwell, and (well) Clarence Thomas.
Barring any retirement from news from the Supreme Court this morning, the events likely to get the most play on the aforementioned foci will be President Bush's 10:40 am ET address on the war on terror in Quantico, Virginia and tomorrow morning's 7:00 am ET breakfast meeting the President will host at the White House with Sens. Frist, Reid, Specter, and Leahy.
ABC News' O'Keefe reports, "Chief Justice William Rehnquist arrived at SCOTUS at approximately 9:22am ET. He entered an underground garage with a full security detail. No cameras, no comment."

Young Buck ft. Glasses Malone - My Zone
Artist: Young Buck
Featuring: Glasses Malone
Producer: K-Salaam & Beatnick
Album: Where the Streets Have No Name (Compilation Album)
Avg Rating: 3.5 ( 42 votes )
Building off the underground acclaim they earned for their debut compilation album, Whose World Is This?, K-Salaam & Beatnick have decided to give it another go! This time around, they've teamed up with hip-hop blog illroots to assemble a brand new collection of hot beats and strong, spirited verses straight from a place Where The Streets Have No Name. One of the cuts set for inclusion on that album sees Cashville's Young Buck and Watts' Glasses Malone addressing one of the upsides of coming up from the streets: those years of hard-earned experience mean that even the roughest locales will feel just like "My Zone." Beatnick & K-Salaam's smooth instrumental accompaniment helps set the mood for Buck and Glasses' inspired verses, and the end result is a cut that should have no trouble getting rotation in any zone.

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- In today's ultra-low interest rate environment, long-term investors may wish to consider dividend stocks as an alternative -- or supplement -- to fixed income investments.
At 2.14%, the dividend yield of the S&P 500 index is around 50 basis points in excess of the 10-year Treasury note. This is historically significant. From 1959 to 2009, the yield of the U.S. Treasury note consistently exceeded the yield of the S&P 500.

Each of the five stocks on the following pages has a higher dividend yield than the 10-year U.S. Treasury note and has a buy rating from TheStreet Ratings. They may make an attractive addition to your income portfolio.TheStreet Ratings stock-rating model favors defensive investments with a bias toward conservatively financed companies that have demonstrated a history of favorable shareholder returns. As always, stock ratings should not be treated as gospel -- rather, use them as a starting point for your own research.
