Bam Margera Posts A Photo Of Him Holding A Gun To His Puppy's Head, Then Apologizes
It was a fake gun, but the message could not have been worse. He also posted more photos with him holding the gun against human heads, which is also not funny. Now he has apologized for the whole thing.
1. Here are the series of photos he posted to Twitter a few days ago:
13. And the public apology that was stated during an interview at his home:
In Chester County (Pennsylvania), which has seen a number of cases of horrific animal abuse recently, SPCA spokesman Rich Britton called the picture "not funny" and said that, even for a shock comedian, Margera "missed the mark on this one."
In an interview Monday at his Chester County compound - home also to his six cats - Margera said that had he known about the incidents of torture, he never would have posted the photo.
"I think those people need to go down," he said of the abusers. "Just hurting another animal is rude, crude, and more."
Margera said that he doesn't even own a gun, and that the only time he ever fired one was at a clay pigeon at a sporting event.
Still, he said, sometimes a joke is just a joke.
"I feel like every follower I have on Twitter" - more than 800,000 - "knows my Jackass joking kind of humor," he said.
- Greece won't pay the International Monetary Fund the $1.8 billion it owes on time, paving the way for a formal default.
- At least 30 people were reported dead after a military plane crashed into two houses in a residential neighborhood in the Indonesian city of Medan.
- President Obama has announced a new rule that would expand eligibility for overtime pay to millions more Americans.

ENBD appoints Credit Suisse and BNP Paribas as arrangers; Sale depends on market conditions.
February 18, 2012 12:28 by Reuters
Emirates NBD, Dubai's largest bank, is planning to issue a Swiss franc-denominated bond and has appointed two banks to look at the sale, banking sources said on Thursday.
One of the sources said the banks appointed are Credit Suisse and BNP Paribas.
"The two arrangers are appointed to assess the market, depending on the market conditions, the sale will be decided," he said.
Emirates NBD has just over 8 billion dirhams in debt maturing this year, including a $1.5 billion loan due in October.
On Wednesday the bank reported a sharp fall in profits for the second quarter in a row on provisioning for bad loans.
Its Islamic subsidiary, Emirates Islamic Bank, re-opened Gulf bond markets this year with a $500 million Islamic bond, or sukuk, in January, which carried a profit rate of 4.72 percent.
In 2007 Emirates NBD completed a 100 million-Swiss franc three-year guaranteed floating rate bond which paid 7 basis points over three-month Swiss Libor, according to Thomson Reuters data. Under the terms of a guaranteed bond, the principal and interest is paid by someone other than the issuer.
In the last two years other Gulf banks have sought to take advantage of a favourable swap rate between the Swiss franc and U.S dollar, the currency most Gulf currencies are pegged to.

Measuring Tube Construction Affects the Long-Term Stability of Magnetic Flowmeters
Electromagnetic flowmeters, also known as mag meters, are popular and proven devices for flow measurement of electrically conductive process fluids and for volumetric filling machine applications. Of prime importance to a mag meters accuracy and long term performance is the condition of the metering section of the flow sensor.
Unlike in most processes, mag meters in filling machine applications are frequently subject to widely varying conditions during normal operation. As a result, they are viable candidates for evaluating their long term performance in an accelerated use environment. Therefore PTB, a German research and approvals agency, in association with KROHNE, undertook an extensive project to study the long term measurement stability of mag meters in filling machine applications.
Faraday's law is the basis of a mag meters measuring principle. The design generally features an electrical isolating liner on the inner wall of the mag meter measuring tube. Linings such as PTFE, PFA or polypropylene or for hygienic reasons, PFA (perfluoroalkoxy) are used. Pressure bearing ceramic pipes are also used. PFA is known to absorb moisture, it can flow under pressure and temperature which means that it changes structure and shape which, in turn, affects the interior diameter of the measuring tube. Changes in the inner diameter of the measuring tube lead to measurement errors. This can lead to problems, especially when extreme precision or repeatability are at stake. This only takes effect after the devices have been in use for longer periods of time and through the corresponding frequent cleaning processes using liquid or steam as are common in the food industry.
The effect is particularly significant when it comes to mag meters used on filling machines for filling PET bottles ("Filling mag meter"). In this case, an extremely high degree of repeatability is required and the quality of the filling process is directly visible in each individual bottle.
That is why, in a joint research cooperative with the Physikalisch-Technischen Bundesanstalt (National Metrology Institute) (PTB), KROHNE Messtechnik tested the measurement stability of filling mag meters. Filling mag meters with PFA liners and filling mag meters with ceramic measuring tubes were both tested. The PTB was interested in this test because for more than 20 years Magmeters with ceramic measuring tubes have been the norm in the normal PTB measuring systems as well as in many other calibration test stations. Thanks to this test, the PTB was able to gain additional knowledge about the behavior of these devices under difficult conditions.07/29/2009

Six Sigma: What? Why? How?
This whitepaper provides the history of the Six Sigma Symbol and explanations on the Six Sigma concept, the Six Sigma implementation, the Six Sigma calculation and more. Download this paper now.
Product variation and defects undercut customer loyalty as well as company profits. Six Sigma is a rigorous, disciplined, data-driven methodology that was developed to enhance product quality and company profitability by improving manufacturing and business processes.
Six Sigma uses statistical analysis to quantitatively measure how a process is performing. That process can involve manufacturing, business practices, products, or service. To be defined as Six Sigma means that the process does not produce more than 3.4 defects per million opportunities (DPMO) which translates to 99.9997% efficiency.
A Six Sigma defect is considered anything that can cause customer dissatisfaction, such as being outside of customer specifications. A Six Sigma opportunity is the total number of chances for a defect to occur.
Six Sigma Concept
The Six Sigma concept was developed by Motorola in 1986 with the stated goal of improving manufacturing processes and reducing product defects and variation. The underlying goal was to achieve near quality perfection with 99.9997% of variable values within specifications.07/17/2009

Conformal Coated Industrial Ethernet Switch Protects Mission Critical Applications
What is Conformal Coating and why is it important in Industrial Ethernet switches? In mission critical and harsh environments like where most Industrial hardened Ethernet switches are deployed, conformal coating acts as protection against moisture, dust, chemicals, and temperature extremes that if non-protected could result in a complete failure of the electronic system. These applications include mining, metal industries, oil & gas, military applications, chemical processing and food and beverage industries. For additional protection to address the demands of the environmental conditions, Ethernet Direct offers state-of-the art conformal coating on Industrial Ethernet switches that meets MIL-I-46058C standardEthernet networks will expand in time.
Conformal coatings encapsulate circuit boards and their electronic components in order to prevent the ingress of moisture, fungus, dust and other environmental contaminants. After the coating is made on the switches, it provides environmental and mechanical protection to significantly extend the life of the components and circuitry to meet the challenges in severe industrial environments.
Based on the increasing demands in various industries, customers' are deploying conformal coatings with expectations to increase the performance of the switch, ease of application, sustainability, quality, functionality, and environmental properties. All of the above expectations require special attention and procedure carried out by Ethernet Direct when manufacturing even single Industrial Ethernet switch in order to ensure that all conformal coated designed switches meet the expected standards. Ethernet Direct continuously to improve the environmental performance and offers conformal coatings Industrial Ethernet switches to enhance more specific demands in industrial applications.
A product may suffer from degraded life and accuracy if the PCB surface comes in contact with ionic substances, making it contaminated. The ionic substances can be in the form of fingerprint or humidity. Having applied conformal coating effectively reduces the effects of mechanical stress, vibrations or temperature changes when an Industrial Ethernet switch could be installed.07/14/2009
Surface Acoustic Wave Technology based Temperature Monitoring of High Voltage and High Current Switchgear Boxes
Safety is a big concern when it comes to managing power distribution systems. High voltage and high current switchgear boxes serve an important role in establishing points of control within the power distribution system.07/08/2009
The Eye for Plant Operator's Eyes
The plant operator has an extremely valuable and important responsibility: being the force and energy managing a capital enterprise easily worth hundreds of millions of dollars to produce or impact a daily revenue stream of millions, give or take. We ask him to be ever mindful of what the plant might be doing. We ask him to be capable of finding every little problem before it grows into a big one. We ask him to shoulder the burden of everything that goes wrong during his watch, all without any recognition when nothing does, and precious little (if not actual blame) when it goes wrong and he manages to manage. Within his area of responsibility and authority he must be able to view every control loop, most sensors, most pieces of equipment, and much of the supporting utilities, and then adjust as appropriate.
The failure to maintain situational awareness has been present in almost every disaster event that was not the result of spontaneous complete surprise. Start with the assumption that no one wants an accident. That no one would chose disaster over success. But accidents and disasters happen. We now know to a high degree of certainty that they happen because those in charge of ensuring that they do not happen, aren't aware that they are happening. They fail to know the situation. They are unaware of what is really going on, what is likely to happen, or what isn't happening that they think is. As explained in my book Alarm Management for Process Control, the solution is facilitated by effective operator interface design. Let's follow the path of interface design that can lead to better situation awareness.07/08/2009

When was the last time you read Green Eggs and Ham? For me, it was yesterday. At work. I work in Children's Publishing and love the way it lets me play on the job. You can usually find me roaming the halls of a museum, trying new wines, walking and biking through the cities hidden gems, drinking beer with friends or laying low at home with a good book or movie. And I'm always game to try something new! I'm a transplant New Yorker, which means the only thing I love as much as exploring the city is leaving it... Give me a good road trip, some mountains to hike, open spaces to photograph and I'm a happy camper. I'm originally from Maryland and Michigan, and the craziness of a family with five kids. We work hard to stay close, and I'm looking for someone who also values those types of relationships. He'd also be a guy who makes me laugh, loves a night in with the dvr and home cooking, appreciates the little things and has a laid-back approach to life. Bonus points if you ever call yourself nerdy, and think that's a good thing.

Child of Vengeanceby David Kirk
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
A bold and vivid historical epic of feudal Japan, based on the real-life exploits of the legendary samurai Musashi Miyamoto.
Japan in the late 16th century was a land in turmoil. Lords of the great clans schemed against each other, served by aristocratic samurai bound to them by a rigid code of honor. Bennosuke is a high-born but lonely teenager living in his ancestral village. His mother died when he was a young boy, and his powerful warrior father Munisai has abandoned him for a life of service to his Lord, Shinmei. Bennosuke has been raised by his uncle Dorinbo, a monk who urges the boy to forgo the violence of the samurai and embrace the contemplative life. But Bennosuke worships his absent father, and when Munisai returns, gravely injured, Bennosuke is forced to confront truths about his family's history and his own place in it. These revelations soon guide him down the samurai's path—awash with blood, bravery, and vengeance. His journey will culminate in the epochal battle of Sekigahara—in which Bennosuke will first proclaim his name as Mushashi Miyamoto. This rich and absorbing epic explores the complexities of one young man's quest while capturing a crucial turning point in Japanese history with visceral mastery, sharp psychological insight and tremendous narrative momentum.
"Kirk proves himself a worthy samurai novelist with this brutal account of real-life 17th-century swordsman Musashi Miyamoto, who grew from a pockmarked village outcast to Japan's best warrior, due to his legendary samurai treatise, The Book of the Five Rings. The novel opens as lonely 13-year-old Bennosuke polishes the armor of his revered father, the samurai Munisai, who has spent the previous eight years in exile following the death of Bennosuke's mother. Bennosuke's uncle, the monk Dorinbo, has been raising the boy, encouraging him to seek a quiet life in the temple, while Bennosuke wants nothing more than to start samurai training. Munisai finally returns home, wounded and discouraged, but willing to share his mastery of the warrior's way with Bennosuke, leading to the revelation of the family's darkest secret. After learning all he can from Munisai, Bennosuke sets out on his own, ending up at the Battle of Sekigahara, where, still a teenager, he escapes from the defeated army well versed in bloodshed, treachery, and chaos, having taken the name he will soon make famous. Kirk, who lives in Japan, positively seethes with energy when depicting bloody violence — from great battlefields to intimate ritual suicide — showing feudal Japan as a complex culture in which cunning and poetry are indispensable, and death and vengeance unavoidable."

Occupational Therapy Managers in the United States are often veterans in their line of work, with approximately two-thirds bringing more than 10 years of experience to the table. Salaries slide in at $73K annually on average but can range from $61K to $99K per year. While just under one in three report receiving no health benefits, more than half do receive medical coverage, and the greater part have dental, as well. Most Occupational Therapy Managers survey respondents are women (77 percent). Job satisfaction is high and work is enjoyable for most Occupational Therapy Managers. The data in this summary comes from the PayScale salary survey.

Occupational therapy managers are usually therapists who have managerial duties at an institution which provides occupational therapy to individuals. Many of their duties are administrative, though some managers may also have hands-on duties.Read More...
Occupational therapy helps those who have been injured or have a physical or mental disorder that may prevent them from performing certain activities. This therapy helps them to be able to carry out these tasks so they can work or simply improve their daily living experiences. Prior to carrying out any activities, patients must be assessed in order to determine plans for recovery. Occupational therapy managers usually oversee a team of therapists, so it is important to ensure that they are carrying out their duties in an appropriate and proficient manner.
It is essential that all staff members are adhering to safety protocols at all times. When discrepancies are noted, these managers may have to make on-the-spot corrections or organize a feedback meeting with the therapist. It may be necessary to delegate duties to occupational therapists and create schedules by assigning them to different patients and tasks. To be an occupational therapy manager, many years of experience are generally required, and applicants should also have graduated from an accredited school of occupational therapy and possess valid and current licensing with the state board.

Supporting the current Iraqi Security Forces with serious military assistance across the full spectrum of the asymmetric capabilities that the U.S. can provide is by far the least unattractive of the options facing us in the fight against ISIS in Iraq.

Orange police are looking for the person or person responsible for a burglary that took place sometime during the night of Dec. 8 or in the early morning hours of Dec. 9 at Gary's Coffee Shop.
Monday, Dec. 9, drivers may have noticed a difference when making a left turn at some traffic lights in Vidor.
Instead of a solid green light for a permitted left turn in a left turn lane, drivers will find a flashing yellow arrow reminding them to take caution when turning. Green and red arrows for protected left turns will remain.
Members of the Nederland Historical Society gathered at a Christmas meeting and celebration Thursday, Dec. 5, at the Marion & Ed Hughes Public Library to enjoy refreshments and sing Christmas hymns and carols with music performed by the Southeast Texas Dulcimer Friends.
H-E-B hosted the 23rd annual Feast of Sharing at Ford Park on Friday, Dec. 6, and fed numerous people in celebration of the holiday season.
Area residents came out in droves to Ford Park to enjoy a delicious meal prepared and served by H-E-B and community volunteers. More than 6,000 meals were prepared using 1,500 gallons of mashed potatoes, 1,320 gallons of vegetable medley, 120 gallons of brown gravy, 600 pies, and 6,000 dinner rolls and soft drinks generously provided by H-E-B.
The Christmas plant we call the Blooming Christmas cactus is officially known as "Schumbergera" or "Zygocactus." It blooms at Christmas and even at Easter time if well cared for. This little surprise from Santa stays tucked away all summer and then in the early fall, you can watch the tips of the leaves beginning to grow. The tips get darker and darker until a little bud forms. This beauty is just waiting for short days and cool night temperatures to show you its blooms.
While we harbor no disrespect for the Wall Street Journal who called us "that scrappy little paper from Southeast Texas," we prefer to think of ourselves as simple seekers of the truth. We're of the opinion that headlines and sound bites never tell the whole story. Our readers demand all the facts, facets and flavors of every story or event. And, they expect to be informed, educated and stirred to action.
For this week's New York Times crossword puzzle, pick up a copy of this week's The Examiner on newsstands now.

I could survive for weeks at a time from chili dogs, Mac n cheese, and pizza.
I've been helping my old man work on cars since before I could walk. I still have projects that need to be finished but a lack of time has kept me from them. Which is hopefully something I will soon remedy.
I'm a musician and listen to every kind of music there is. I play guitar and bass, pretend I can sing and I know a little but would like to know more piano.

Bayou Group co-founder James Marquez has been sentenced to more than four years in prison for his role in the hedge fund fraud.
Marquez, who pleaded guilty to defrauding investors of more than $10 million in December 2006, received a 51-month sentence from U.S. District Judge Colleen McMahon in New York today.
He admitted that Stamford, Conn.-based Bayou, which collapsed in 2005, hid consistent losses from investors from 1996 until 2001.
McMahon rejected a plea for leniency based on Marquez's bipolar disorder.
"He led for four years a secret life of criminal deceit," McMahon said. "I will not excuse the defendant's behavior as aberrant."
Marquez, who told the court he was "genuinely sorry," was also ordered to pay $6.2 million in restitution.
His co-conspirators, co-founder Samuel Israel and CFO Daniel Marino, pleaded guilty to swindling investors to the tune of as much as $450 million soon after Bayou collapsed, and cooperated with investigators. Marino, who faces as much as 50 years in prison, will be sentenced next week; Israel, who could earn up to 30 years in the clink, faces a judge next month.
McMahon offered a preview of those hearings, saying that Israel and Marino would be held accountable for their roles in the "massive Ponzi scheme" which she called "as reprehensible as any in the storied history of securities fraud."
