Sporting Kansas City moved top of the MLS Eastern Conference after they beat Toronto FC 3-0 and the Montreal Impact were hammered 4-0 by the New York Red Bulls.
Soony Saad's brace helped Kansas to victory over ten-man Toronto, who lost Reggie Lambe to a straight red card 11 minutes after half-time for a foul on Saad before Claudio Bieler completed the scoring. Aurelien Collin had a fourth disallowed for offside.
New York joined the Impact on 31 points, two behind Kansas, after goals in the first 16 minutes from Eric Alexander and Thierry Henry set them on their way to a comfortable win at Red Bull Arena. Tim Cahill made it 3-0 and Peguy Luyindula added a late penalty.
The Philadelphia Union, who beat Chivas USA last night, are a point further back while the Houston Dynamo moved to 29 with a 2-1 win over the New England Revolution tonight.
Adam Moffat was credited with both Dynamo goals, though the second rebounded off a post and in off goalkeeper Bobby Shuttleworth. Saer Sene scored New England's goal but substitute Dimitry Imbongo's dismissal, two minutes after the winning goal, ended their hopes of a comeback.
Real Salt Lake remained four points clear in the Western Conference after beating FC Dallas 3-0. Javier Morales, Ned Grabavoy and Olmes Garcia scored for Salt Lake, who maintained their margin over second-placed Portland.
The Timbers saw off the Los Angeles Galaxy 2-1 after Andrew Jean-Baptiste's headed winner in stoppage time. Ryan Johnson had earlier cancelled out the Galaxy's opener, which came from Marcelo Sarvas.
Walter Martinez scored the only goal as the San Jose Earthquakes won 1-0 against the Seattle Sounders, who had Osvaldo Alonso sent off late on.

The public might not be keenly conscious about how their efforts could cause secondary damage to victims of accidents when they try to help and rush them to hospital. Secondary injury can be a result of lack of skills on the part of first respondents after trauma.
A police trainer at Kabalye Police Training School in Masindi District, says the police have been offering emergency medical services (EMS) but without training; "We have been picking victims and rushing them to the hospital, not knowing that we could prevent death or secondary injury."
Over 200 officers and cadet trainees have undergone training on advanced emergency response at the training school to equip officers and trainees with basic life support, an initiative by Medical Teams International (MTI), a worldwide volunteer organisation that provides mobile clinics to camps and communities.
According to Ms Kris Hurst, a US-based EMS trainer, the first responder training is aimed at changing the image of the Force in executing its duties. It has equipped officers with basic skills of taking care of bleeding, fractures and the ability to assess the condition of the victim before rushing them to the hospital.
"This is a paradigm shift in the operation of the Force on public safety. Officers should be responding with basic knowledge on how to stop preventable death as well as avoiding secondary injury in handling the victims," says Ms Hurst. She adds: "We have provided training equipment for the training school to enable another group of trainees get skills on EMS. Now an officer will have several skills at work."
Mr Denis Omodi Ayela, the MTI programme coordinator in charge of emergency medical services, explains that the training was aimed at equipping officers with basic health skills because they are exposed to occupational hazards.
"Our intervention is to equip officers on patrol trucks and traffic officers with skills of transportation, basic life support to prevent secondary injuries that usually occur in the process of help.
"We have held training of trainers but also we have since decided to train the entire force," said Mr Ayela, adding that they are targeting at least half of the Force by the end of three years.
Ms Hadija Namutebi, the Deputy Commandant of the Police Training School described the training as a timely initiative coming alongside the initial police course. "The selection is critical as it is for the entire force. Even before traffic officers arrive at the scene, patrols are there but the training is a big boost in the work," said Ms Namutebi while handing over certificates to the officers who attended the training.
She asked the trainers to enhance the training to already on job officers in their respective units to help them acquire the skills to take advantage of the course to meet their challenge.
If you come across a road accident ...
1. Stay safe and keep calm. Assess the situation: what are the dangers? (These might include approaching traffic, leaking petrol, broken glass etc). Make sure you stay safe: keep off the road. If you need to stop approaching cars, signal to them from the pavement. If you are in a car and you come across an accident, first park safely and turn off the engine before you get out to help. Use a hazard triangle if necessary. Get help from bystanders.
2. Check the airway. If it is safe to approach the injured person, do so, but don't move them. Learn how to open an airway. Check for a response - talk to them and tap them gently. If there's no response, shout for help. Check the casualty's airway: put your hand on their forehead and gently tilt their head back.
3. Gently lift their chin with two fingers. Check if they're breathing by listening and feeling for breath on your cheek. See if their chest is moving up and down. If they're not breathing normally, you will need to start cardio pulmonary resuscitation. Learn how to resuscitate.

Re: carpet cleaning
You raise an interesting question that the FAA has been ignoring for a long time. Once interior materials are installed on an aircraft there is no way to verify that 5 years down the road they still meet flammability requirements of 23.853 & 25.853. The only way to verify this would be to cut a sample of your seat out, or carpet, etc.. and have it burn tested, obviously this would not work. There currently is not any way one can prove that the interior materials installed on their aircraft still meet the original flammability requirements.
Cleaning or shampooing materials treated with a saturant type fire retardant may inhibit the fire retardancy characteristics. However, items treated with a latex backing type fire retardant will have a permanent durable fire retardancy. Most fire retardants are non-corrosive, but manufacturers will give no guarantees that corrosion will not occur. Manufacturers also void there warranties once the material is cut and installed on the aircraft. That's right, there liability ends once the material is cut and installed on an aircraft. Their certification for flammability is only for the raw material.
The only advice I can give you is to call the manufacturer of the carpet and ask for their cleaning instructions. If it is wool carpet, do not apply stain repellents which contain silicone, because they tend to accelerate carpet soiling. Also, spots on wool carpets can be removed by a detergent solution of clear dish washing liquid or powder(containing no bleaches or strong alkalies) with warm water (not hot); or vinegar solution- 1/3 cup of white vinegar with 2/3 cup of water.
Re: carpet cleaning
<HTML>I cleaned the carpet in my C-182 shortly after I bought it, in '86. I pulled it out, layed it out in my driveway and used my Bissle Carpet Steamer...I let it dry in the sun...it looked great...when I put it back in the plane....It was almost three inches too short!! I dont think I'd do that again, unless I tacked the carpet down to something till it dried...
Since then, I've found Quick 'n Brite to be very effective on a wide assortment of cleaning problems.</HTML>

|Representative Buck McKeon is leading the fight
against military spending cuts
© AFP/Getty Images/File Chip Somodevilla
WASHINGTON (AFP) - A key US lawmaker leading the fight against military spending cuts has warned that dramatic new reductions could force the United States to shift from an all-volunteer military and reinstate the draft.
House Armed Services Committee Buck McKeon, a Republican, told Fox News television on Monday that lawmakers "need to understand what it's going to mean to keep an all-volunteer force."
"Do we want to reinstitute the draft? Some of the cuts we're talking about would take over 200,000 out of end strength from our military," McKeon said in remarks also reported in the Washington Post on Tuesday.
The lawmaker said that an August debt-limit deal included $465 billion of defense spending cuts over ten years, and warned that "it'll be over another $500 billion" in automatic cuts to military programs if a new "supercommittee" fails to find $1.2 trillion in deficit cuts over ten years in a few weeks.
"We understand that defense has to be on the table, just as everything else is," he said, but draconian cuts to the Pentagon would raise the question of "who's going to have our back the next time we're attacked."
If the "supercommittee" fails to agree on a plan by November 23, and Congress fails to pass it by December 23, that would trigger $1.2 trillion in automatic cuts to military spending and a popular health care program come January 2013.
The cuts were designed to be so unpopular with Republicans and Democrats that they would force the 12-member panel to find a compromise, and force the overall congress to back the compromise.
But senior Republicans have been working to fight against new cuts to defense spending as part of the committee's work, warning such reductions could endanger US national security in the face of a rising China and could deepen the US economic downturn by swelling the ranks of unemployed.

Quickly and easily install a 4-way trailer connector on your Toyota Corolla with this custom harness. T-connector plugs directly into existing wiring - no cutting, splicing or tapping required. Converter is made using SMT to ensure superior performance.
This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your Toyota Corolla's wiring harness, which is located behind the driver's-side and passenger's-side interior trim panels in your rear cargo area.
Once installation is complete, the 4-way connector will be stowed in an out-of-the-way location within your cargo area.
It is recommended that you use a small amount of grease on all electrical connections - the plugs on your automobile and the 4-pole connector itself - to help prevent corrosion.
A tail light converter is built into this T-connector. Because most trailers run on a two-wire system - wherein the brake and turn signals are carried on one wire - the separate brake and turn signals from your Toyota Corolla's three-wire system need to be combined so they are compatible with the wiring system of the trailer. This converter combines the brake and turn signal functions of your automobile so that they run on one wire to properly activate your trailer's tail lights. Note: This will not affect how the tail lights on your Toyota Corolla operate.
Curt builds each tail light converter using surface-mount technology (SMT). This method of construction involves soldering electronic components directly to the surface of a printed circuit board. SMT eliminates the need for leads, which are used in older through-hole technology. The result is a circuit board that is smaller yet provides more routing area and that offers superior performance, reliability and durability.
Circuit boards constructed using SMT have been shown to perform better under rough conditions with excessive vibration than those made using the through-hole method. And where would vibration be more likely to occur than in towing applications? Curt converters also produce less heat, leading to increased durability and longer life. In addition, lower levels of resistance ensure better performance, especially for parts that operate at higher frequencies.
Each Curt circuit board is made using high-quality components that are pieced together in the most technologically savvy fashion, leading to greater predictability and reliability in functioning.

To begin our install, well first open up the rear cargo door and remove the spare tire cover. Next, well need to remove the rear threshold. To remove the rear threshold, well remove two pushpin fasteners and then gently pull up on the rear threshold unlocking the fasteners underneath.Now, well go ahead and set the thresholds aside and remove the two fasteners securing the carpet liner on the driver side. To remove the pushpin fasteners, you can either use a flat play screwdriver or a trim panel tool. After removing the fasteners here on the driver side, we can go ahead and pull back the carpeting and well expose the manufacturers wiring going in the back of the tail light assembly.Now well move over to the passenger side and repeat the same process.
Well remove the two fasteners and pull back on the carpeting. Now, starting on the driver side, well go ahead and press on the locking tab of the wiring connector for the tail light assembly and remove it from the assembly. We can then take the manufacturers wire and plug in to our yellow and brown wire connector from our new wiring harness. Then well take the other end of the T-connector and plug into the back of the tail light assembly.Next, well take the green wiring connector brought over to the passenger side and repeat the same process. Well press in the locking tab of the manufacturers wiring going into the tail light assembly, remove it and plug it into the T-connector, plugging in the other end of the t-connector into the back of the tail light assembly.Now, as we route back over to the driver side, well use a black zip tie provided with our install kit to secure our wiring.
Next, well go ahead and take the black converter box and adhere the two-way adhesive provided with our install. Well remove it, cover the two-way adhesive and install it to the back of the converter box; and then remove the other side of our two-way adhesive, here below the tail light assembly out of the way.Ill go ahead and take one more zip tie and secure the four-pole wiring here to the manufacturers wiring keeping it out of the way. Now, were ready to go ahead and reinstall the interior trim component. With everything reinstalled, we can now go ahead and show you how to use the new four-pole connector. Well simply take it out of the spare tire well and route it down to the hitch or accessory.
Be careful to stay away from the ledge as pitching the wire often, the latch can harm it; however, the weather stripping is thick enough that it wont.Simply close the cargo door on it and pull out as much as the four-pole connector as needed. Then once were finished, well go ahead and open up the rear cargo door, roll the wire against the door, down to the spare tire well.

I originally had a harness that you needed to splice wires together. It seemed like way to much work. I found this harness after doing some hunting online and I have to say it was well worth the extra $ I had to pay for it. Plus it was so easy to install.... Especially for a woman :) I had no trouble at all doing it myself. Thanks to the installation video on the website. Great product & great price. The delivery of the product didn't take but a couple days which was also great. 139369
by: Ava P.05/28/2013
(Oops. Provided the wrong review for this product). My neighbor hooked up the wiring and used to do it all the time, so it was just a matter of pushing it under a rubber overlay at the back under the rear door, and under the carpeting to curl up in the opening for the tail lights. When I do hook it up, it should be a simple matter to attach the loose plugs to the trailer, but, haven't done it yet! 82237
by: Kevin M.12/10/2012
This trailer light kit is fantastic. High quality, easy to install, over-current protected and works light a charm. It just plugs right in with no splicing or soldering involved. Automatically converts the four bulb tail light setup (2 for each side) of the Corolla to a two bulb setup of of a normal trailer. This works great and adds value to my car. I could not be more pleased with this. 61037

I am 71 years old. this wiring harness was a piece of cake to install even for an old pilgrim like me (lol).took me about 20 to 30 minutes( but I took my time )..The only downside was the written directions was kinda vague(but then again I'm old. So I went by the video on your website and that was so helpfull...Thank you for a good product 83716
by: Allan W05/08/2013
The trailer hitch's fit was excellent. Also the wiring harness installed very easily. My only problem was that the weld nuts in the frame were very rusted and it took quite a lot of time with a wire tube brush to get them cleaned out so that the bolts would install. Once they were clean, the installation was every easy. 2007 Corolla S. 79455

I purchased a T-Connector kit #55542 for a 2004 Toyota. What a piece of cake to install, 35 min. to complete. 25 min. taking trunk lining out and back in, 10 min to connect wiring. These people have it together also received the kit in 3 days not the usual 7 to 10 76916
by: Terron J.03/24/2011
Works. Instructions could have been better. Could have come with some more zip ties, or better style of zip ties. Some of the cables could have been longer. Could have come with some replacement trunk liner fasteners because you will inevitably break some. 10310

Dear Readers,The end of summer always comes too quickly for me, and with it the inherent rush to get my kids ready to go back to school. New clothes, new lunchboxes, new backpacks and of course a last ditch attempt to take that promised weekend getaway or daytrip before summer is over. With that said, momready.com is taking a week off to get our kids ready for the impending school year, and put our family lives back into some semblance of order. During this break, we will be running some of our favorite articles from the past year, in our first ever Best of momready Week. Some articles you may have read, some you may have missed, but all have some great tips for wrapping up vacation and getting back into a routine after a long summer.We'll be back after the Labor Day Holiday with more back to school tips, NEW contests, NEW features and a few surprises. Until then, enjoy the end of summer!Best regards,Elisa TaubEditor

Bucks Face Crawford Saturday
Story By: Jeff Alan
Originally Published on: 1/23/2014
After a 55-40 win over Bucyrus this past Monday, the Buckeye Central boys basketball team has kept themselves a game ahead in the North Central Conference standings. Ranked in the top ten for the first time since the 2003-'04 season, the Bucks, 12-1, 7-1 will try to stay right there and maybe move up, but to do that they will have to take care of business on their home floor Saturday evening as they take on rival Colonel Crawford, the only team to beat the Bucks to this point winning 60-48 back in December. The Eagles come in at 10-3, 5-2 in the NCC and are coming off a 60-51 loss to Galion last weekend. Yet the Bucks will have to guard against four of the best scorers in the conference in Connor McCreary, 18 ppg, Todd Entenmann 16 ppg, Nate Klingenberger 12 ppg and Logan Sager at 8.2 ppg. BC coach Phil Loy also adds Dylan Gulley into that group who averages just over five points per game saying the first time around at Crawford, it was Sager and Gulley who were difference makers in the teams first meeting. Buckeye Central will try to counter with Austin Wurm 20 ppg, Cade Kaple 14 ppg, Sam Robertson 12 ppg along with Seth Ollis at six points per game and Stone Wurm also at six a game. The contest is big not only in the NCC standings, but also tournament wise. The Division IV sectional tournament draw is two weeks from this Sunday at Ontario. Buckeye Central will join Plymouth, Mansfield Christian and St.Peter's at the "O"rena the week of February 24th.

Travers Smith was founded more than two centuries ago and has practised here in the City of London ever since.
Our earliest clients were financial institutions and in 1801 one of the firm's partners drafted the constitution for the first Stock Exchange. In 1851, Joseph Travers Smith joined the firm and became its senior partner. The historian Charles Sharman speaks of him as an acknowledged authority on Havana cigars and vintage port and as the solicitor to 'the Westminster Bank and to numerous old families from Royalty downwards.' The firm was then joined by Stephen Braithwaite in 1873 when the practice became known as Travers Smith Braithwaite.
Since the Second World War, the firm has grown steadily. This has been carefully controlled organic growth with the emphasis always on quality and a cohesive culture, rather than growth through merger or acquisition which we believe could dilute that quality and culture.
We have fee-earners working out of offices in London and Paris, divided into 17 specialist practice areas.
"a partner-led approach and uncompromising focus on quality control."

Realm of Marvels: Building Collections for the Future
- Dates: March 17, 2000 through June 18, 2000
... more
February 2000: Realm of Marvels: Building Collections for the Future will explore the dual identity of the Brooklyn Museum of Art as both a treasure house of wonders and an ever-changing institution involved in an on-going process of informed collecting. Seventeen major acquisitions will be presented amid groups of related materials that represent the history, depth, and richness of the Museum's holdings. The profusion of objects on view will serve as a reminder of the voracious appetite for knowledge that sparked the creation of many museums in the nineteenth century.
On view March 17 through June 15, Realm of Marvels is designed to offer visitors an extraordinary visual feast, while at the same time articulating a critical history of individual and institutional collecting.
"This unusual and exciting exhibition exemplifies the newly redefined mission of the Museum: to use its renowned collections and its expertise to serve the public in a more dynamic way as a destination where visitors can find a personal connection to the past, present, and future through art," states Museum Director Arnold L. Lehman, who initiated the project. "The BMA is a bridge between the rich artistic heritage of world cultures, as embodied in its collections, and the unique experience of each visitor. This exhibition will explore how the BMA has continued to grow, refining and redefining its holdings through generations of informed curators and supportive collectors. Realm of Marvels will address what the Brooklyn Museum of Art has been and what it aspires to be."
The exhibition will include works from almost every major area of the Museum's vast holdings of more than 1.5 million objects, representing nearly every culture and almost all of recorded time. The seventeen masterpieces that form the core of the exhibition were selected from thousands of works of art acquired within the past decade.
Realm of Marvels was organized by Ellen Reeder, Deputy Director for Art, in collaboration with Teresa Carbone, Associate Curator of American Paintings and Sculpture, and Barry Harwood, Associate Curator of Decorative Arts. Every curatorial department as well as conservation staff members have participated in this complex project.

Let's take a look at the last 6 games played by the Habs.
They beat San Jose 3-2, and by they I mean Jaroslav Halak. They were outshot 48-21 and if it wasn't for awful goaltending by backup Brian Boucher, the Canadiens are never in that game.
They get absolutely embarrassed in Buffalo, losing 5-1. Granted Carey Price had a poor performance but a 5-1 loss to a team whose playoff hopes are on life support is unacceptable at this point in the season.
They follow that game up with a pathetic performance in Atlanta, losing 2-0 to an awful Thrashers team. The Habs combined for 13 shots in the first 2 periods against a defense composed of 3 rookies, 1 sophomore and 2 veterans.
The next game, Guy Carbonneau's last, the Candiens are not emotionally engaged, and Carey Price needs to stand on his head to beat Dallas 3-1. The Habs are once again outshot 31-19 but find a way to win, with credit going to some spectacular penalty killing.
In Bob Gainey's debut as head coach, the Canadiens are outshot 23-9 through 2 periods and are forced to come from behind to win it in overtime. Most objective viewers agree that the Habs had no business winning the game, especially considering it was against a fringe playoff team, the Oilers.
Most recently, Montreal found themselves at home facing an Islanders team, which I would venture to guess has no more than 3 forwards and 2 defenseman that the casual hockey viewer would know. The Canadiens end up losing in OT against the worst team in the entire league. As per usual, they were outshot badly, this time 39-26, and they looked especially bad when they had a 5 on 3 for a full 2 minutes late in the game and couldn't do anything. They were lucky to come away with a point.
So, that's 6 games in a row where Montreal has been outplayed, and I must have a mental block or something because I can't even remember the last time they had a good game.
The quality of play from this Montreal team is remarkably inconsistent from game to game, even from period to period. That's not a good quality to have with less than 20 games to go until playoffs start. I might take some heat for this because most Habs fans will say "they have 5 points out of a possible 6 in their last 3 games, how can you say that they look bad?"

Preventing Single-Use Bag Pollution
Preventing Single-Use Bag Pollution
Reusable grocery and carry-out bags help prevent plastic bag pollution and conserve precious resources. Millions of Texans bring their own bags to the store when they shop, and with 11 cities having passed single-use bag ordinances at the local government level, Texas is one of the leading states to prevent single-use bag pollution. Dallas and Austin have already passed ordinance, and now San Antonio, Corpus Christi and Fort Worth could be next.
Local ordinances are spreading throughout Texas because voluntary efforts to curb plastic bag pollution have proven ineffective. Most municipal recycling programs do not accept plastic bags, since they damage sorting machinery and waste labor time. Estimates are that less than 1% are getting recycled at retail chains and facilities that do offer plastic bag recycling.[1] Billions of plastic bags are ending up in the environment, where they harm livestock and marine life, or they end up in landfills. Since local governments and working communities bear most of the burden of clean-up and pollution, residents have called for local ordinances to address the many problems associated with single-use bags:
- Plastic bag pollution can cost taxpayers up to a dollar per person per year. The City of Austin prepared a cost analysis estimating a cost to taxpayers of up to $800,000 per year for bag pollution. That means in total, Texas residents could be spending up to $25 million in taxes annually on clean-up.[2]
- Paper bags have their own negative impacts. It requires 10 times as many eighteen-wheelers to bring paper bags to your local grocery store than it does to deliver plastic bags. They also cost retailers more to provide. Retailers such as H-E-B support inclusion of paper bags in single-use bag ordinances.[3] Each year the US consumes 10 billion paper bags, requiring 14 million trees.
- Coastal regions experience wildlife threats and polluted tourist areas. Brownsville, South Padre Island, and Laguna Vista passed ordinances to protect their beaches and save tax dollars, and Corpus Christi has followed suit with its own proposed ordinance.
- Cattle are especially at risk of consuming plastic bags. The International Cattle Association reports, "Plastic ingestion is one real killer of cattle today with almost no known cure...There is no vaccination, no world wide USDA press releases about thousands of cattle dead every year. It is just a quiet and painful way for cattle to die with several difficult symptoms to confuse the issue."[4] West Texas cities such as Fort Stockton and Kermit have passed ordinances in part to protect livestock.
Texas Cities Bag the Bags
This interactive map shows Texas cities that have passed or proposed local single-use bag ordinances:
Hundreds of cities outside of Texas and around the world already have bag ordinances.[5] Now that Dallas, Brownsville, Laredo, Fort Stockton, South Padre Island, Austin, Laguna Vista, Freer, Sunset Valley, Port Aransas and Kermit, TX have all passed single-use bag ordinances, it's time for San Antonio, Fort Worth and Corpus Christi to listen to concerned voters and taxpayers. Your letters and emails make all the difference. Take Action Now!

Vanderbilt's Price wins Clemens Award
Chronicle News Services | July 13, 2007
David Price, the junior lefthander from Vanderbilt, topped off a record-breaking season by taking home the Roger Clemens Award on Wednesday night.
Price beat out Charlotte senior Adam Mills and Virginia sophomore Jacob Thompson for the honor following a season in which he compiled 194 strikeouts in 133 1/3 innings.
Price's high strikeout rate, 13.1 per game, combined with a 2.64 ERA and 11-1 record, helped him become the No. 1 pick in the draft to the Tampa Bay Devil Rays.

Washington D.C. Forecast: Cooler tonight, nice Friday ahead
August 7, 2014 - 03:50 PM
Text size Decrease Increase
One more nice day lies ahead but changes are likely for the weekend.
- Overnight:
- Mainly Clear and Cooler
- Lows: Upper 50s to Mid 60s
- Wind: N 5 m.p.h.
- Friday:
- Morning Sun, Afternoon Clouds, Comfortable
- Highs: Mid 80s
- Wind: S 4-8 m.p.h.
- Saturday:
- Mostly Cloudy, Scattered Showers
- Highs: Low 80s
- Precipitation: 30%
High pressure has moved into the area and brought with it, noticeably less humid. Unfortunately, this benevolent weather system will move out over the weekend. As a result, skies will be considerably cloudy over the weekend and there will be a chance of showers.
A stationary front stretched out between the Tennessee Valley and the Carolina Coast will play a significant role in our weekend weather. It now appears that a few disturbances will develop and move along that frontal zone and produce scattered showers in our area. Areas south of Richmond into North Carolina and South Carolina and eastward to the Atlantic Coast could see areas of heavy rain Saturday into Sunday.

Kirk and Rob
I was using both screens the WRKSYSSTS to get Total Jobs in the system
to go with QTOTJOB and QADLTOTJ system values and WRKACTJOB for the
others, using the WRKSYSSTS ASTLVL(*intermed). If I remember correctly
you are right that any job (even ended jobs w/spoolfiles) count in this
total, and that the system has to keep track of these jobs and that is
what the QTOTJOB and QADLTOTJ values correspond to. When this table in
the OS or the Active Job table exceed the initial limit then it has to
be expanded. Used to be when that happened the system kind of suspended
jobs while it did housekeeping and expanded the table(s).
I was just wondering in v6.1 if that still held true. Since we seem to
be bouncing back and forth over limits as our number grow and shrink.
Maybe it doesn't matter as much coming back under a thresh hold, but I
thought the system freed up that space meaning it would have to
reallocate it again when crossing the other direction.
Like I said this was some 15 years ago that I was involved in doing some
heavy tuning and I know a lot has changed. We are having some timeout
issues in some jobs that can't be explained and they could be elsewhere
network, MS servers, etc. but haven't been found yet so fingers are
pointed our way. That was when I noticed the values trying to help
someone figure out the problem and thought from past experience that
they didn't seem to be set to values I would have thought they should.

Hello! My husband and I are not currently expecting, but the possibility will arise soon enough as my youngest begins to wean. If we have any more children, we would like to deliver at home. We live in King George, VA. Anyone know of any midwives still attending homebirths here? My understanding is that one just stopped and the only other one I have heard of is located south of Richmond (1.5 hours away) and you have to go to her for all of your appointments.
have you also tried posting in your finding the tribe area?
Midwifery student , Mama to my 4 amazing kids.
I have not tried that, but I will now. Thanks.
I would ask other like-minded mamas in your area who they went with. They can give you their info and an honest opinion about the services they received. :)
, July 2012. Waiting for our sometime very soon.
Yeah, I did. Actually, our last one, #6, was born at home. However, the midwife who delivered her (well, just missed delivering her :) ) no longer offers homebirth services. There is one other that I have heard of who is 1.5 hours away and one 2 hours away. I am hoping someone I don't know knows something I don't know. If that is as clear as mud. ;) Just hoping and praying a midwife crops up in my area in the near future. There is certainly a need. With my midwife missing the birth by a few minutes and these other midwives living just as far or farther away, honestly, if a new midwife does not crop up in the area, I think we will have to go back to an OB who was "ok" with one of the other births. I hate that idea, but what other choice do I have when there are no midwives in the area? It's sad.
PM'd you.
, July 2012. Waiting for our sometime very soon.

Swim Training Trip Blog 1/2/12: Mandie Nugent
Posted by Mandie Nugent on Monday, January 2, 2012
10:30 p.m.
Today we had practice in the morning 6-8 followed by the related meet at Noon, we were against other schools that had traveled down to Deer Field for their training trip. It was really hot and the meet was really fun. Everyone was cheering and supporting each other and everyone swam well. The ladies won all their events which was a positive outcome and we hope this sets the tone for the rest of the season and year.
Posted by Hayley Kidd on Sunday, January 1, 2012

To start off the New Year we began today with an eventful team exercise led by Jesse. The task was to come up with some type of skit or talent within the assigned group and then perform it. With teamwork and creativity the skits were extremely comical and a great way to start the day. After the meeting with Jesse, we headed to the pool for morning practice. This morning's practice was very unique, however. It was set up as a meet with the team split in two. Though almost everyone is feeling the soreness of this week's practices, the meet was exciting and the weather was near perfect.
Because we were given the afternoon off some people went snorkeling or fishing while others went to the beach. For dinner some of us went to the restaurant Flanigans where we encountered an interesting waitress, Jill. The food was pretty good, and it was very nice to dine outside in the middle of winter. On the walk back to the hotel, we stopped for some delicious ice cream. All in all, today was my favorite and worth the 16 hour wait in airports. Hopefully tomorrow goes just as well with our 6:00 a.m. practice and a relay meet against other teams also on training trips.

This morning the mens team started off on the beach for some dryland workouts. After a short time running on the sand, we headed to the short-course pool for our first practice. Our 'Sprint' group was separated from the 'Mid-distance/Distance' groups, and we began one of our harder practices so far through this training trip: 70x25s (1500 yards of butterfly) for time. After, we crawled out of the pool to get back to the hotel for a few hours of lunch and laying out on the beach here on a beautiful, 80 degree day before our next practice session. As soon as I fell asleep on the sand, I realized it was time to get back to the hotel and prepare for our night/long-course practice. That evening coach Damion (Dennis) gave us the dreaded 'deck-of-cards' set, where each card pulled out of the deck was a different dryland exercise (pushups, crunches, or squats) or 50s of different strokes on a descending interval through the course of the whole deck-of-cards set. Once we were finished with that practice, we all knew that we would be sore for the countdown and fireworks for this New Years Eve.

Today was probably the best day of the trip so far. The weather was amazing, and everyone trained well this morning. There were separate sets for the 400 IMers and the stroke/freestyle/200 IMers, but everyone went pretty fast. It was a challenging set, but the weather and the atmosphere in the pool made it go by quickly. After practice we went to the beach for a few hours. The girls did dryland on the beach before practice and then the mid-distance group had a recovery practice at night, so it was a pretty good day in my eyes.

After a long and confused morning of travel, most of us had made it to the Fort Lauderdale airport. Some people had just missed the flight out of Pittsburgh and would spend the rest of their first day of trip in the airport. For those who did make it, we had a nice loosen up swim until noon before spending the afternoon getting lunch and relaxing on the beach next to the hotel. When the time came for the next practice, we made our way to the vans and made it through our first hard workout of the trip. Later that night, the last travelers finally made it in.
Day two was basically a blur of challenging swim practices, dryland workouts and resting. We stormed the local grocery store and filled our carts with food for the week. Tired and ready for the rest of the week, we passed out and got some much needed sleep.

Intellectual Property
Toys v. Pearl Enters.
Date Filed:
Case #: 13-5262 (JAP) (TJB)
United States District Court for the District of New Jersey
Full Text Opinion: http://docs.justia.com/cases/federal/district-courts/new-jersey/njdce/3:2013cv05262/293796/46/0.pdf
LexisNxis Link: 2014 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 70852
Westlaw Link:
Trademarks: When the re-sale of a product does not involve the actual "use" of a trademark, the re-sale of the product does not constitute trademark infringement.
Opinion (Pisano): Plaintiff Zany Toys, LLC and Defendant Pearl Enterprises, LLC are toy developers and manufacturers. In 2010, Zany Toys, LLC trademarked and began using "THE NO! BUTTON" and "NO!" in relation with the production and distribution of electronic talking toys. In 2013, Pearl Enterprises, LLC purchased 3,300 units of "THE NO! BUTTON" product from Zany Toys, LLC. Pearl Enterprises, LLC re-sold the 3,300 units of "THE NO! BUTTON" product through its website. Once those units were sold, Pearl Enterprises, LLC continued to advertise "THE NO! BUTTON" product but filled orders with a similar toy their company developed. Zany Toys, LLC filed suit against Pearl Enterprises, LLC for trademark infringement. During trial, Zany Toys, LLC asked the Court for a preliminary injunction. For a court to grant Zany Toys, LLC preliminary injunction, Zany Toys, LLC must produce evidence to establish the elements of trademark infringement. Zany Toys, LLC must prove that the trademark is a "valid and legally protectable mark; it owns the mark; and (3) the Defendant's use of the mark to identify goods or services causes a likelihood of confusion." Pearl Enterprises, LLC attempted to trademark a similar product, which demonstrates Pearl Enterprises, LLC's acknowledgement of the original trademark's validity. Therefore, the Court held that the trademark was distinctive and thus legally recognizable. The second element was also met because a party can assert ownership rights in accordance with a legally recognizable trademark. However, the third element was not met because although Pearl Enterprises evidently infringed upon the ownership rights of Zany Toys, LLC, they did not "actually 'use' the trademark" in the advertisement of the product. Therefore, the Court DENIED Zany Toys, LLC's request for preliminary injunction.

i think i would like to have a similar set of rules if i ever date again.
i decided not to date again till my son is a grown up because of the disastrous relationships i've had so far... each time my heart was broken- damien's was too- and i couldn't take that again!
its hard- but it gets easier over time. i get lonely occasionally, and feel like i'm missing someone i don't even know... but explaining my situation and then finding someone who will love my damien too is way too daunting a task!
this way i get to spend all my love, time and money on my son!
I've decided to stay single too. I just can't comprehend getting into a relationship again. Ever.
I said that same thing, (not dating again because of the heartache,) know I've gotten into a relationship where I feel loved and appreciated, but I think that I might just be destroying it because I still have trust issues. Does anyone have any advice that they what to share! Help!

Video:Best Tequila Brandswith Justin Noel
Tequila is a varied and complex liquor. In this cocktail video from About.com, mixologist, Justin Noel, showcases great brands of tequila from all different price points.See Transcript
Transcript:Best Tequila Brands
My name is Justin Noel, proprietor here at 1534 Bar in Nolita, New York. And I'm here today for About.com to discuss quality tequila brands ranging from least expensive to most expensive ranging in blancos, neros and reposados.
Milagro Blanco Tequila
The first brand I'd like to talk to you guys about today is the Milagro Blanco, which I think is – for price point, mixability, taste profile - is a great underappreciated tequila brand. It's a great representation of a highland tequila, fruity, floral, spicy notes, and the mixability is great.
Reposado from Siete Leguas
The next brand I want to talk to you guys about is the Reposado from Siete Leguas. What a lot of people don't know is that Siete Leguas is actually the first producers of Petron, and the Reposado, for the price point, taste profile, is a great product.
Tequila Ocho Anejo
The third brand I want to talk to you about is the Tequila Ocho Anejo, which is one of my favorites. Tequila Ocho is unique in that they do single estate vintages, so every year, the Anejo, the Repo and the blanco come from different farms throughout Mexico, within the five states that you're allowed to produce tequila. So you get a unique representation, almost like small batch whiskeys vary from year to year, same thing with tequila ocho, and Anejo is one of the best products out there.
Corzo Anejo Tequila
The fourth brand is one that I'm very familiar with, the Corzo Anejo. Now Corzo Anejo for the price point, sipability, taste, is great. They do a couple of different things – highland tequila, they triple distill, and they double age. Double aging is that they age the product in New American Oak, after the first distillation, then they distill twice more, then they put it into new French Oak, where they let it rest in the wood for anywhere between a year to two and a half years, and then they blend.
Jose Cuervo's Platino Reserva de la Familia, Platino Blanco
The final tequila I'd like to talk to you guys about today is Jose Cuervo's Platino Reserva de la Familia, Platino Blanco. Some of you guys out there might be saying Jose Cuervo, really? Yes. Jose Cuervo actually makes a really nice quality high-end premium tequila line knows as the Reserva De La Familia, which is one of the best sipping blanco tequilas out on the market.
It's a little bit more expensive, but when you look at some of these high-end tequilas, and what they charge, I think that this is all quality in the bottle, and I think that Jose Cuervo's De La Familia Platino Blanco is probably one of the best, highest price Ocho Premium tequilas that you can get. So there you have it, guys.
Five tequila brands, five different price point areas. If you're interested in learning more about tequila, please visit About.com and cheers!

Comments about GNU Metal Gnuru EC2 BTX Snowboard 2015:
This board is amazing! Super fast, stable and with super flex. Very balanced and very easy to maneuver the board at semi-high speeds. Setting up for jumps are a breeze not to much kicking around when getting ready to go big. Carving in tight circumstances where you need to get out of the way of a crying kid on a blind turn is easy peasy. If your like me and like to go all over the mountain and not stay in the park all day I would recommend this board for sure hence all mountain board :P Not the greatest for buttering but still doable. May want a park board if your are into that.I gave it 4 stars since it didn't seem to hold up at high speeds and the top of the board seems to scratch very easily and is very noticeable with the gloss.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The board is very fun. SUPER fast I have only rode it once so far and the edge hold is amazing you can go as fast as you can hook your board in and do a very tight turn< It comes waxed so its super fast. Its a all around good board. I have nothing bad to say against it.

Music video and album will be dropping soon...
Chuckie Akenz - I Remember
Chuckie Akenz is back with a newly released track entitled I Remember. The song is another introspective type song that Chuckie is quite well-known for. One thing I noticed is that the flow of the second to fourth lines in the 1st verse seems a little off.
Music video and album will be dropping soon...
Lloyd Popp from Indonesia did this amazing talkbox remix of Nate Dogg's part in Ain't No Fun as a tribute to the late Nate Dogg. He added some new things to the original beat to try to create a Zapp and Roger feel to it. It's so funky! If you know the lyrics to this old hip hop classic, feel free to sing along.... lol.
It has been nearly two years since Nate Dogg has left us but his music lives on. Rest in peace.
Here's a menacing track called Take Money Boyz by Luc P featuring Fate and Hoodrich. They are some local rappers from Vancouver. "GTown" to be exact. Man this shit go hard. Luc P murdered the track. He had a killer verse and did a killer hook.
The only person I wasn't feelin on the track was Fate, the second guy on the track. Something about his flow and the stuff he was talking about feels a little off. Hoodrich on the other hand was quite decent but his verse was too short.
Fish Grease - Get It Live MV
Get It Live is a fun song about letting loose and having fun in the clubs from a rapper named Fish Grease. The club music nowadays is too superficial and egotistical. We need more songs like this in hip hop! And by the way, Fish Grease is the younger brother of Keith Murray.
Gerry Scopez has just leaked Catch The RedEye from his upcoming RedEye Sessions project. The production is tight, but I'm not so sure about the rapping and singing in this one.
Here's a new track from Spot & Ess (formerly known as D-City) called Smile Through The Maddness. The beat, produced by Ess, makes me feel like doing evil shit....lol.
Thai - Alone Tonight
454 Life Entertainment dug out this song, Alone Tonight, from the vaults. This is one of the first songs Thai did after signing with the label. Thai did his thing in the song, no doubt. The guy who sings the hook sounds like he's from the 80's. Haha.
This song is available in an MP3 download. More exclusive tracks from Thai will be released in anticipation for his new album.
SonaOne - Redrum
"And she's sippin on some red rum, red rum, rum...."
A real smooth track from SonaOne. This one is called RedRum, off the Kartel Records Made Men Compilation released last November.
Chill - Flamethrower
A brand new release from Chill, the "Queen of Filipino Hip Hop". The song is entitled Flamethrower, produced by Sam Rhansum. Her vocals doesn't come off that strong and her lyrics and flow are mediocre.
The Quiett leaked out a hot new track called Did It Again from his new mixtape: Back On The Beats Mixtape Vol.2. Didn't know that mashin on piano keys could sound real sick!
Track listing for the mixtape after the jump.

Locally based Pan Asia Symphony Orchestra will perform "Symphony in 'E'", composed by its music director Dr Yip Wai-hong, at a concert featuring violinist Kim Hye-Jin in May.
Under the baton of guest conductor Lio Kuok-man, the orchestra will play "Symphony in 'E'", and will also perform Sibelius' "Violin Concerto in D Minor" with Kim.
Dr Yip is well-known as a music pedagogue and conductor, but he has also been composing music for 55 years. In this concert, he will revisit his "Symphony in 'E'", published in 1990 as an expression of his observations on people who strive for world peace.
Winner of the 2009 Concert Artists Guild International Competition and the 2004 Yehudi Menuhin International Competition, Kim Hye-Jin entered the Curtis Institute of Music at 14 and received her Bachelors degree there. She obtained her Masters degree at the New England Conservatory as a recipient of the Emma V. Lambrose Presidential Scholarship.
The Korean-born violinist has collaborated with the Philadelphia Orchestra, New Jersey Symphony Orchestra, BBC Concert Orchestra, Seoul Philharmonic Orchestra and Hanover Chamber Orchestra. She plays a 1687 Gioffredo Cappa violin.
Pan Asia Symphony Orchestra is a highly organised orchestra that aims to promote music among the public, especially the younger generation, in Hong Kong. The orchestra has performed frequently with a number of internationally famous conductors and soloists in Hong Kong over the past 30 years. By using the idiom of popular music and organising concert talks, the orchestra has successfully introduced serious music and Chinese orchestral music to the public, and, at the same time, brought about an awareness of the indigenous culture of the people.
Presented by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department, "Symphony in 'E'" will be held at 8pm, May 22 (Saturday), at the Auditorium, Sha Tin Town Hall.
