The Client ID and Client secret originally used for Google Drive are apparently no longer correct. When I click authorize it comes up with 'error:invalid_client' I am no longer in contact with the person who originally set it up and was wondering if there is anyway I could change the Client ID and secret so I can authorize it?
Unless there is a way in which I can retrieve the back up without having to go through Google Drive then I am stuck as I need to update my website and can't unless I make sure it is all backed up.
It says that the local folder path the back up will be stored to is: wp-content/uploads/backup-csqkGPkAHbz7
Any help would be appreciated, I'm not an expert with WordPress so don't understand all the technical talk! Thank you!

i don't know that I'd ever thought about it before -- I'm glad you raised the question. Frankly, I didn't know any of the history of gender-specific casting that some of you have noted.
Clearly their thinking has evolved somewhat over time. If you get that job at WDW, it's an important conversation to pursue. Enlightenment and new ways of thinking have to start somewhere.
At some point there was a first female CM on the Jungle Cruise, a first male tour guide -- probably after years of people thinking those policies were so intrenched they'd never change. Who's to say you couldn't help expand their thinking on gender-specific costuming? Maybe there's room for them to consider more gender-neutral options on some attractions like The Haunted Mansion?
Don't let current policies dampen your dream or limit what you think is possible. Good luck!
No one I knew liked their costumes, but you learn to live with them. if it's more about comfort, I'm pretty sure you could wear capris or something under those costumes though.
At Studios, females initially couldn't do the gangster role at GMR for years (I forget when it was changed)
Trying to skirt the dresscode? Disney hasn't exactly softened their stance. The head scarf controversy comes to mind. You should treat the costume requirement as a role you're playing. You're not being yourself on stage.
That's a very good point, especially at the HM.Quote:
You should treat the costume requirement as a role you're playing. You're not being yourself on stage.
I wish Disney would allow this. I'm a 6'3 guy with a bushy beard and I've always wanted to be cast as tinkerbell.
"Mommy, I want my picture with Tinkerbell"
"um, I think that's TinkerBILL honey..."
And on the subject at hand, I would think of it as a role and playing a part which means the director (i.e. management) would assign you the costume best suited for the role.

|Passion fruit juice
|1 Cup (16 tbs)
|Thai red chilies

"And unto thy brethren have I said, and also given commandment, that they should love one another, and that they should choose me, their Father, but behold, they are without affection, and they hate their own blood; . . . and misery shall be their doom; and the whole heavens shall weep over them, even all the workmanship of mine hands; wherefore should not the heavens weep, seeing these shall suffer?" (Moses 7:33, 37)
To me, one of the most moving, remarkable, and significant passages in all of scripture is the entire seventh chapter of the Book of Moses in the Pearl of Great Price. (I've written about it at length here, published a column about it in the Deseret News, and spoken publicly about it as reported here. Jeffrey Bradshaw, Jacob Rennaker, and David Larsen have also published a recent article about it in Interpreter.)
There is absolutely nothing adequate that can be said about, and certainly nothing adequate that can be said to the families of the victims of, the massacre in Newtown. But Moses 7, in my view, suggests at least the outline of a religious reflection on the tragedy.
And Doctrine and Covenants 42:45-46, another passage that I've found deeply meaningful for decades, suggests in very basic terms how we should react:
"Thou shalt live together in love, insomuch that thou shalt weep for the loss of them that die, and more especially for those that have not hope of a glorious resurrection. And it shall come to pass that those that die in me shall not taste of death, for it shall be sweet unto them."
There is, certainly, hope of a glorious resurrection for those elementary school kids of Newtown. Yet we weep for them, and for their families.

- born
(born 1973, Chicago, Ill.), In 2014 artist Theaster Gates, whose work continued to resist conventional categorization, announced his latest project—the design of a $1 million art installation that would serve as a gateway for the Chicago Transit Authority's (CTA's) $240 million refurbishment of the 95th Street Red Line rapid-transit station, which provided service to a largely black population. His two works of public art (located at the north and south ends of the station) would incorporate some symbolic items—fire hoses, for example—that disturbingly harkened back to the American civil rights movement. During the year, he also created stage elements for Jason Moran's suite of blues compositions presented as part of the Chicago Symphony Center's jazz series.
Gates became aware of Chicago's neighbourhood disparities as a boy, growing up in a working-class family on the city's West Side. He was bused to a mixed-race grammar school and then attended Lane Technical College Prep High School, both on the North Side. After earning (1996) a B.S. degree in urban planning at Iowa State University, he studied (1998) African religions at the University of Cape Town and then took up (1999) a residency with ceramics masters in Tokoname, Japan. In 2005 he returned to Iowa State to complete a multidisciplinary master's degree in urban planning, ceramics, and religious studies. Gates's media included ceramics, ready-mades, salvage, and the organization of multimedia, multiparticipant projects with activist themes, all deployed to question issues of racial and economic inequality. In his ongoing Dorchester Projects (begun in 2006), which involved the purchase of blighted properties and the renovation and repurposing of them into cultural-enrichment centres (that housed such collections as glass slides, books on art and architecture, vinyl LPs, and archived collections of Ebony and Jet magazines) in the Greater Grand Crossing neighbourhood, on Chicago's South Side, Gates erased the boundary between life and art.
His first solo art exhibition, Plate Convergence (2007), held at Chicago's Hyde Park Art Center, showcased a fictional mixed-race ceramist played by an actor. Gates's installation-performance Temple Exercises (2009) at Chicago's Museum of Contemporary Art led to an invitation to exhibit at the 2010 Whitney Biennial in New York City, where he presented shoeshine stands and displayed fire hoses as well as staging performances by his singing group, the Black Monks of Mississippi. Gates drew international acclaim in 2012 at Documenta 13 in Kassel, Ger., for 12 Ballads for Huguenot House, an installation crafted of salvage materials retrieved from one of his Grand Crossing properties and a local derelict building.
Since 2006 Gates had been an arts programmer at the University of Chicago, where in 2011 he was appointed director of Arts + Public Life, an incubator that linked the university and its South Side community in creative endeavours. He was also the founder (2010) of the nonprofit Rebuild Foundation, which took arts programs to public schools.

Tedious BCS debates overshadow great stories
Here's another reason: The debate that has dominated this college football season, whether two very good teams - TCU and Boise State - from so-so conferences without automatic bids to the BCS are worthy of playing in the national championship game, has is overshadowing some great stuff on the field.
Yes, Boise State and TCU look as if they can compete against any team in the country. Yes, their schedules are not nearly as tough as those of the teams that play in the SEC, Big Ten or Pac-10, so their unbeaten records should not be valued as highly.
We can go back and forth forever.
"Death to the BCS" suggests a 16-team playoff. Eight sounds good, but gets complicated. SEC commissioner Mike Slive himself wanted the BCS to go to a four-team playoff called the plus-one.
Any of those models would be an improvement over spending the final three weeks of the season trying to decide how impressive it is to beat Oregon State.
- The ACC Atlantic race is all about Maryland. The surprising Terrapins (7-3, 4-2) have two games left against the other two teams in the race. If they can beat Florida State on Saturday and North Carolina State the week after, the Terps go the Atlantic Coast Conference title game for first time. Regardless, it's a nice bounce back season by Maryland coach Ralph Friedgen.
- For the first time, all the services academies will play in a bowl game. Army (6-4) became bowl eligible with a 45-28 victory at Kent State on Saturday. Navy (7-3) and Air Force (7-4) have already clinched winning seasons. If Army can beat Notre Dame or Navy, all three schools would finish over .500 for the third time since 1960. The other two were 1963 and '96.
- Wisconsin's 83 points against Indiana were the most by a ranked team since No. 16 Houston beat SMU 95-21 on Oct. 21, 1989. Was Badgers coach Bret Bielema running it up? Is there such a thing as running it up between two teams from the same conference? A vote for no here.
No. 14 Virginia Tech can wrap up the Coastal division of the ACC by winning at No. 24 Miami on Saturday. The Hokies have won eight straight since starting the season with a crushing loss to Boise State and a stunning loss James Madison.
In the Big Ten, No. 8 Ohio State is at No. 21 Iowa. The Buckeyes have won or shared the last five Big Ten championships.
An Iowa victory would help No. 11 Michigan State. If the Spartans and No. 6 Wisconsin finish tied atop the Big Ten, Michigan State goes to the Rose Bowl because it beat the Badgers. In a three-way tie, the BCS standings determine the Rose Bowl bid and could favor Wisconsin.

Apertures, An Organism-like Installation at SCI-Arc, Opens Friday
Thursday, April 10, 2014
Sam Lubell.
On April 11, Los Angeles–based firm B+U will open their latest installation, called Apertures, at SCI-Arc Gallery. The structure, already assembled inside the space, is 16-feet-tall and made up of 233 1/8-inch-thick plastic panels. Its warped shape resembles a natural organ or organism (a heart? a strange alien plant?), and in many ways it acts like one.
Shortlist Specials: West Coast Projects Name Names

Not So Fast… Hollywood Projects Placed On Hold
Thursday, February 27, 2014
Sam Lubell.
It appears that the Los Angeles density backlash is starting to really… blow up. Particularly in Hollywood, where several towers and multi-use developments have been set to get rolling.
On February 18, the LA Planning Department issued the Hollywood Community Plan Update Injunction Clearance, prohibiting the city's department of Building and Safety from issuing "any permit for the construction, erection, addition to or alteration of any building or structure…unless the Department of City Planning first issues a HCPU (Hollywood Community Plan Update) Injunction Clearance." While many projects won't be impacted, any project seeking entitlements or permits under the HCPU could be. The order derives from a February 11 LA County Superior Court injunction stemming from several neighborhood groups' lawsuit challenging the HCPU's Environmental Impact Review (EIR). The HCPU was passed back in 2012, bringing with it much more density around transit, among other things. Read More

Across the Los Angeles River, A Statement in Steel Reconnects the City's Urban Fabric
Tuesday, January 28, 2014

"We got very attracted to the project, and to the idea of making something that reconnects Los Angeles," Zoltan Pali said of Taylor Yard Bridge, the pedestrian and bicycle bridge designed by his firm, Studio Pali Fekete architects (SPF:a). Originally introduced as part of a mitigations package twenty-two years ago, the bridge, which will span the Los Angeles River between Cypress Park and Elysian Valley, should be completed within two years at a cost of $5.3 million.

Stalled No More? Downtown Los Angeles Developments Could See New Life

Speaking of zombies, two of Downtown LA's most long-stalled projects appear to be rising from the dead.

The designer has yet to be revealed.

I like how it drapes and flows. I wore it with boyfriend jeans and it looks so cute. Sure it has many layers but the material is soft and thin so it lays nicely. I am 5'2 120lbs, 32A. I got the XS. fits great! 9.9.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Loveorhate Great, but not for me... I tried this top at the store,in black color and I must say it is beautiful. Unfortunately, the top did not fit my frame very well. I guess I am not used to tops like this, and it made me look big in the waist-hip area. 8.31.2013
Rated 3 out of 5Â by blackberry No cigar I was hoping this would be my go to easy stylish winter top, not so. I am keeping it because it is cozy and the details are lovely, I like the high neckline with just a little revealed through the lace, (better with jeans than leggings) but it makes me look like a lump. This top is the opposite of body-con, its like, body where did you go? the sizing is right, but the two layers of fabric really hide everything. i could be shaped like a turnip and nobody would know, which might be fabulous if I was indeed shaped like a turnip...sigh.... 8.30.2013

Join author David Gassner as he explores Java SE (Standard Edition), the language used to build mobile apps for Android devices, enterprise server applications, and more. This course demonstrates how to install both Java and the Eclipse IDE and dives into the particulars of programming. The course also explains the fundamentals of Java, from creating simple variables, assigning values, and declaring methods to working with strings, arrays, and subclasses; reading and writing to text files; and implementing object oriented programming concepts.
When you loop through a simple array in Java, you typically use a for loop and a counter variable or a foreach loop. If you're using the counter variable approach, you increment that variable once each time through the loop and then use that as an index value. You could do that with an array list, but the array list and the HashMap both have more elegant approaches available for iterating or looping through their contents. There's a pattern called an iterator, an iterator is a special Java class that's designed to allow you to loop without having to keep track of internal numbering yourself.
I'll show you how to use iterators on both the array list and the HashMap. I'm working in a project called iterators, which is a part of this chapter's exercise files. The beginning code for this application declares an array list named list and a HashMap named Map. Items are added to each of the objects, and then the objects are output to the Console. I'll run the application and show the results. Now because these classes are not members of java.lang, at the top of the class you'll see these import statements, these are critical.
Now, I'll show you how to create an iterator from an array list. The first step is that you need to know what kind of class you're going to be getting. For an array list, the iterator is called a list iterator and there was a special class for it. I'll declare a class named ListIterator, notice that there are two available, I'll choose the one from java.util. And when I declare the data type, just like the array list, I need to declare the data type of its values. In this case, it will be string.
I'll give this variable a name of listIterator with a lowercase initial character. Now to populate its value, I'll call the array list objects listIterator method, this returns the iterator that references the list values. I now have an object that I can use to easily loop through the values. Next I'll use a while loop, I'll type in the keyword while and press control space and I'll choose this version while loop with condition.
It's up to me to determine what that condition is. The listIterator object has a method called hasNext. As long as there is an available next item in the collection, it will return true. When I have dealt with the last item in the collection, it will return false. So my condition will be listIterator.hasNext. Within the code block for the while loop, I'll now create a string variable and I'll give it a variable name, value. And in order to get the next item from the iterator, I use this code listIterator.next.
When you call the next method, it moves internally to the next item within the iterator and the collection and it returns a reference to the value. If it's complex object, it's a reference to the object. Now I can output the value. I'll use System.out.println and just value. So that's how use the listIterator when you're working with an array list object. I'll run the application and show that it's outputting in turn California, Oregon and Washington.
Because I started from an array list which is an ordered collection, it's guaranteed that I'll be looping through in the order in which the items were placed into the list. So now I'll show you how to do something fairly similar with a HashMap. Remember that this HashMap has two sets of strings, the keys and the values. You can iterate through either. But I'm going to focus on iterating through the keys because once you have a key, you can get to the value. With an array list, it's a single step to get to the iterator you need.
But with a HashMap it's two steps. The first step is to get the collection of strings that you want to loop through and the second step is to get the iterator. With the HashMap class you can either get the values using the method values or you can get a set of values called a key set and that would be the set of keys California, Oregon and Washington. When you get the keys, they'll end up in an object called a Set. Type in the word Set and press Ctrl+ Spacebar and choose the set class from java.util.
And as with all classes in the collections framework set the data type, I'll set it to string. Now to populate that set of values called map.keySet. Now as I've been typing, I should've been getting import statements at the top of the code. If you aren't getting your import statements for any reason, you can easily fix that by pressing Ctrl + Shift + O on Windows or Command + shift + O on Mac, and Eclipse will fix up your imports making sure you have the ones you need and putting them in the right order.
Now let's go back to the code. I'm missing my variable name here and I'll just call it keys. Okay now I'm ready to create my iterator. When you're working with a set, and you want to iterate through its values, instead of getting a list iterator you'll get a class simply named iterator. At this point, you might be asking how do I know this? And the answer is it's in the documentation. Remember that because Java is so strongly typed, every bit of documentation will tell you exactly what you're getting.
So I'm going to create a class which is data type as an iterator. Again make sure you choose the right version, this one should be from java.util, set the data type, and set the variable name, I'll call it iterator. And then get the value of the iterator from keys.iterator the method. Now I'm ready to loop. I'll go to the next line and type while and press Ctrl+ Spacebar once again I'll choose while loop with condition. And the programming interfaces of the iterator and the list iterator are exactly the same.
So I'll be able to use while iterator.hasNext. And within the while loop, I'll once again declare a string, I'll set its name to a value, I'll get its value from iterator.next, again following exactly the same syntax that I did with the listIterator and then I'll output the value System.out.println. I'll run the application and I get California, Oregon and Washington.
But remember, those key values came from a HashMap, but remember those strings are keys in a HashMap and each key has an associated value, so I'm going to do this with a little bit more complexity. I'll expand my editor, so I have a little bit more width to work with, and I'll add before the value the capital of, and then the value, and then after that I add another plus operator and a space is, and then after another space and another quote, another plus operator and then map.get(value).
So the whole purpose of this was to loop through the keys, so that I could then address the keys and their associated values, here is the result the capitol of California is Sacramento and so on. Iterators always work on collections of single values. When you're working with a HashMap you're working with a collection of keys and associated values. So the first step is to extract the keys and the next step is to get the iterator so you can loop through the contents. Iterators are a valuable part of what's known as the collections framework in Java.
They're designed to make it very easy to loop through the contents of your data in memory without having to keep track of your own numeric counter variables or use your own handcrafted strategies.

2013 LORSER FEITELSON and HELEN LUNDEBERG FEITLSON ARTS FELLOWSHIP EXHIBITION
Exhibition May 19 – July 7, 2013
Patricia Valencia, Without End
Opening Reception: Sunday, May 19, 2013, 2 – 5 PM
Hosted by the Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery Associates
The Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery Associates (LAMAG Associates) are pleased to announce an exhibition of filmmaker Patricia Valencia, the 2013 Lorser Feitelson and Helen Lundeberg Feitelson Arts Fellowship award-winner. Valencia's films will be on view concurrent with the 2013 City of Los Angeles Individual Artists Fellowship (COLA) exhibition opening May 19 and running through July 7, 2013. For information visit lamag.org.
Valencia is currently researching and scouting location shots for two new films that mark a significant moment in her creative process and development as an artist. Both films address the cultural and architectural shifts of Los Angeles' rapid transformative history.
"My practice as a filmmaker has primarily made use of Super-8mm film and digital video. The first film in the In Memorium series is an homage to the soon to be demolished 6th street bridge, which has been made iconic in the countless Hollywood films and car advertisements. I am interested in the bridge's metaphorical role as both a division and a connector between East Los Angeles and Downtown.
"The second film will be part documentary, part memoir from the point of view of those displaced from the Bunker Hill area of Los Angeles. It will also be a search for the now lost 'Hill X', which was once a site for the ritual activities of Native Americans.
"Expanding upon visual structures from my recent films, these works will build up slow paced or static shots of crumbling infrastructures, and signs of past communities; each documenting the physical neglect of 'progressive' urban planning, regeneration, or enforced relocations. Both films will be addressing the cultural and architectural shifts of Los Angeles' rapid transformative history, with a particular emphasis on issues of migration, displacement, and collective nostalgia."
The $5,000 Award was conceived by the Feitelson Foundation and friends to encourage emerging artists by awarding grants supporting their creative potential. The Award is offered with the generous support of the Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery Associates (LAMAGA) in partnership with the Feitelson Foundation.
This year's Feitelson Arts Fellowship Award will be juried by Carol S.Eliel, curator of modern art at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art; Pilar Tompkins Rivas, curator and director of residency programs at the 18th Street Arts Center; and artist Richard Wyatt, a former instructor of drawing and painting at UC Irvine, Otis Art Institute, and Watts Towers Art Center and producer of art for public and corporate spaces.

I felt melancholy at saying good-bye to the Dictionary. It cost me a slice of my life, but has been a good bit of work, though my share in it has diminished. I don't know whether to be glad or sorry that I took it up; but I part from it with a sense that I am being laid on the shelf. (Selected Letters, 507)The mixture of pride and lamentation is wholly characteristic.At the time of giving up the editorship, however, Stephenstill not quite sixtyhad much to look forward to among his literary projects. He made yet another attempt to return to his intended work on the English utilitarians, but was repeatedly interrupted. Friends, Norton chief among them, had been pressing him to collect his agnostic articles, and An Agnostic's Apology and other Essays (1893) began to take shape from June 1891. He looked over his old essays with some misgivings, found them better than he had expected, and started revising. They begin with a series he had contributed to the Fortnightly from June 1876, opening with An agnostic's apology itselfwhich had, as he told Norton at the time, consisted simply in pointing out that we are all agnostics, though some people call their ignorance God or mystery (Selected Letters, 171). It made an eloquent, and passionate, title piece for the volume published in 1893. Other strongly argued pieces were added, including a Comtean What is materialism?, which in 1886 he had prepared as a lecture but had been disconcerted to find had to serve as a sermon at Moncure Conway's ethical chapel in Finsbury: singing Emerson, and taking the first lesson out of Mill and the second out of Wordsworth. It was a queer caricature; but I suppose that it amuses some of them (letter to Norton, 6 May 1886, Maitland, 389). Norton wondered whether apology was suitable in the title, but Stephen reassured him that the word as used here did not imply any admission of the justice or even the plausibility of attacks. It only means that one has been abused, and that is undeniable (30 Sept 1892, Selected Letters, 410). On publication the collection received some disapproving criticism from specialists who found it philosophically weak, but it retained a more general following as a Rationalist Press Association sixpenny publication in 1904 and after.
the long, thin, bright-red beard, radiating in fan-shape; the wrinkled forehead; the curious flatness of the top of the head, accentuated by the fullness of the auburn hair on either side; the long cold hands; the distraught and melancholy eyes. (Maitland, 268)Stephen's most conspicuous feature was that long beard, which Gosse noted as still strong red in 1893. It was latterly much grizzled and, in photographs, almost ectoplasmic in texture. It dated from the time of his first visit to America, but commentators throughout his life also remembered his strikingly blue eyes. G. F. Watts's half-length portrait, painted early in 1878 as a marriage gift to his second wife (and now in the National Portrait Gallery), catches these features well. George Meredith's fictional portrayal of Stephen, as Vernon Whitford in chapter 2 of The Egoist: Phoebus Apollo turned fasting friar, has been generally reckoned a good description. Subsequently friendships and fame ensured that in later life he was photographed by Julia Margaret Cameron, and later by commissioned professionals, so a widely known image commensurate with his contemporary intellectual reputation has survived.

State Tennis: Klahowya's Landram Reaches Semifinals
SEATTLE - State TenNIS | Most Kitsapers fall in the quarterfinals.
Klahowya freshman Traci Landram is two wins away from a Class 2A state tennis championship.
Landram, a freshman, beat Taylor Relich of Aberdeen 6-0, 6-1 and Molly Beaumont of Bellingham 6-3, 6-0 to keep her title hopes alive. She'll play MacKenzie Williams of Hockinson in today's semifinals at the Nordstrom Tennis Center on the University of Washington campus.
Klahowya teammate Maggie Becker dropped her first-round match, but bounced back to win two straight and will face Beaumont for the opportunity to play in the fourth-sixth place match.
Sequim's Reed Gunstone and Mallory Maloney reached the semifinals in boys doubles.
Class 4A: South Kitsap's Rae Cockreham, a ninth-grader, won her first-round match, but Amy Vo of Newport rallied to beat her 0-6, 6-4, 7-6 (7-2) in a tie-breaker during the quarterfinals at the Tri-City Court Club in Kennewick.
Cockreham won her consolation match and could face Central Kitsap's Corrine Wurden — the two both train at the Bremerton Tennis & Athletic Club — in the match for fourth and sixth-place if they both win today. Wurden also lost in the quarterfinals.
South's doubles team of Chloe Helms and Emily Hulscher also lost in the quarterfinals after surviving a three-set match in their opener. They need one more win to guarantee a fourth or sixth-place finish.

Americans are a bunch of lazy layabouts who don't want to work and would rather live off the taxes generated by the toil of their countrymen. I hear some version of this rant repeatedly from people who believe that the American work ethic disappeared at some point in the past generation.
It's time clear up a few matters.
First, American worker productivity is high and continues to rise.
In fact, according to a cross-national study released earlier this year by the International Labor Organization, American workers are the most productive in the world. Based on the most recent data available for each country, workers in the United States on average produce $63,885 of wealth annually; compared to other industrialized countries of Europe, only Norway's workers produce more wealth per hour ($37.99 in U.S. dollars) than do American workers ($35.63).
Second, Americans work - a lot.
Although workers in third-world countries put in roughly 2,200 hours per year, compared with other industrialized nations U.S. workers rank first, averaging about 1,800 hours annually. That's 400 more hours than the Norwegians and 330 more hours than the French.
So we work plenty and produce a lot. How else could a nation with only 4.5 percent of the world's population produce more than a fifth of the world's wealth?
Obviously, technology has boosted productivity. But technological advances also make work more pervasive and inescapable: Saleswomen today can call clients from the car or email them while in midair; middle managers can do paperwork on their laptops at night and on weekends. All of which means Americans today often work in places and at times that their parents and grandparents simply could not.
Although earlier generations of American workers surely would have done the same had cellphones and the Internet existed then, it doesn't change the fact that today's workers can work longer hours and perhaps never fully "leave" the office.
So if Americans are working hard, they must be playing hard, too, right?
Sorry, it's just the opposite: The same country that ranks first among industrialized nations in total wealth productivity per year and second in wealth productivity per hour ranks dead last in terms of vacation time taken, especially paid vacation.
Of the 21 advanced economies examined in a study published earlier this summer by the Center for Economic and Policy Research, the United States is the only nation that doesn't guarantee every worker a certain number of days of paid vacation. Although we have 10 official federal holidays, none are guaranteed paid vacation days - a commonplace legal right in most other industrialized nations.
Many Americans do, of course, receive and take paid vacation days from either their public-sector or private-sector employers. But almost a quarter of all Americans (23 percent, according to the CEPR study) get no paid vacation time whatsoever.
And this may shock those who think we've become a country of loafers: Almost 3 in 5 American workers in 2011 ended the year with unused vacation time. In a typical year, the estimated number of unused vacation days nationwide is 175 million. Divide that by a standard, 250-day work year, and that equates to 700,000 worker "years" of unused vacation annually.
Surely all the extra work and higher productivity have translated into better pay, yes?
Wrong again: The shameful reality is that worker productivity rose 80 percent from 1973 to 2011, yet median hourly compensation during the same period grew only about 10 percent. Since 2000, productivity is up 23 percent, but inflation-adjusted hourly pay has flat-lined.
Increasingly, the reward for hard work in America is, well, more hard work - at the same or lower compensation and with less time for play.
Tell that to your blowhard uncle at this year's Labor Day picnic when he starts bellyaching about how nobody in this country works anymore.

Swiss Stocks Are Little Changed; Watchmakers Lead Gaining Shares
Dec. 21 (Bloomberg) -- Swiss stocks were little changed, after swinging between gains and losses, as euro-area lenders sought more funds from the European Central Bank than economists had predicted.
Swatch Group AG, the world's largest watchmaker, gained 1 percent after Societe Generale SA recommended buying the shares. Holcim Ltd., the world's second-biggest cement maker, dropped 1.7 percent.
The Swiss Market Index, a measure of the biggest and most actively traded companies, gained less than 0.1 percent to 5,804.77 at the close in Zurich, after fluctuating between an increase of 0.7 percent and a loss of 0.3 percent. The gauge has rebounded 21 percent from this year's low on Aug. 10 as policy makers intensified their efforts to resolve the debt crisis. The broader Swiss Performance Index was also little changed today.
The Frankfurt-based ECB awarded 489 billion euros ($645 billion) in 1,134-day loans, more than median estimate of 293 billion euros by economists in a Bloomberg News survey. The ECB said 523 banks asked for the funds, which will be lent at the average of its benchmark rate -- currently 1 percent -- over the period of the loans. The ECB also lent banks $33 billion for 14 days in a regular dollar offering, up from $5.1 billion a week ago.
European Union leaders will hold a summit on Jan. 30 to discuss jobs and economic growth, EU President Herman Van Rompuy said.
Euro Support
Euro-area governments yesterday pledged to channel 150 billion euros to the International Monetary Fund. British wariness of the IMF program undermined the euro region's goal of drawing an additional 50 billion euros from the rest of the EU.
The head of the world's biggest bond fund said he sees a more than one-in-three chance that the euro area will break apart and trigger a financial crisis akin to the one that devastated the global economy in 2008.
"It would be the equivalent of a sudden stop" in which financial markets seized up, Mohamed El-Erian, chief executive officer of Pacific Investment Management Co. in Newport Beach, California, said. "It would be really, really messy."
Swatch increased 1 percent to 341.40 francs. Societe Generale raised its recommendation on the stock to "buy" from "hold." Cie. Financiere Richemont SA, the owner of the Cartier brand, advanced 1.4 percent to 46.98 francs.
Holcim declined 1.7 percent to 49.80 francs and Geberit AG, Europe's biggest maker of toilet-flushing systems, lost 1.2 percent to 180 francs.

A couple of years ago I went to a Paul Hill Exhibition. The work he had on display was from his snapshot album!
So inspired by a photo of his dog on a wall, I went home and took one of my dog.
Thought I'd upload a snapshot in view of the recent forum thread. I would definitely say this is a snapshot, would you?
Thanks for looking,

Like what you have done Greg, it seems much brighter, thanks!
As for Ed, I can take your comments with a pinch of salt, but Noble knows if I give the command "kill", you will have to watch out for your trouser legs!! Hey, come up and meet him and judge for yourself, hee hee!!
By the by, and I'm not being biased, Noble is unique among his breed. He is not a yapper, very very intelligent (I've trained him) and exceeds in agility being a rock climber's dog!!!

Lovely shot Teresa, beautiful dog and he/she looks so majestic standing atop of the wall. I also did a mod, not that it was needed but wanted to counter the mod left by Kit Monster, hope you do not mind. I didn't read the forum thread on snapshots, but I am sure you have made your point, well done! Spot on! CLick!!!

Hello Teresa, you know I can read his thoughts, 'what on earth is she playing at puting me here, she knows I hate heights', lol...good exposure bringing out great colour and clarity. Nice doggy expression shot. There is no shame in a snap shot, the so called experts try to distinguish a difference to boost their ego importance...my response to them would be, I only take snapshots!!!

Added a more constructive mod. Felt it lacked a little depth. Might have over cooked it - the colours, not the dog . . .

I did the following to the shot:
1. Selected the dog only, reduced shadows by 20%
2. Dog still selected, increased saturation.
3. Selected the sky, increased highlights, 10%.
4. Sky still selected, reduced noise, then applied photo filter, deep blue, 25%
5. Selected the entire shot, increased Saturation and Contrast to taste.
Hope this helps, have a goow week!

London, UK (PRWEB) August 30, 2014
Source Marketing Direct is at the forefront of a brand new B2B marketing campaign that promotes an app for retailers and restaurants. Moving into a brand new industry is an exciting prospect for the firm, which specialises in sourcing new customers for clients across a range of markets. The average person spends 2.1 hours a day on their mobile phone, that is more than, TV, PC use and radio, so it makes perfect sense for Source Marketing Direct to evolve their client base to include Applications and Technology. Managing Director, Hector Montalvo, describes his excitement regarding the new app, which has allowed the marketing company to break into a new area of business:
'It's definitely an exciting new venture for us; business-to-business marketing is an area we're keen to explore further, and the best part is that the product is incredible, which has made launching this new campaign so simple, as it's easy to sell something you love.'
The Application promises to increase exposure for businesses who register with it, increase customer interactions by 18%, improve orders placed by 22% and offer a free marketing service in the form of 'push notifications' to all users.
In their article, Four factors that make b2b marketing special, Paul Hague, Nick Hague and Matt Harrison argue that B2B marketing is 'different from consumer marketing in deep and fundamental ways', identifying four distinguishable areas:
An article on Proteus Marketing, What Makes Business-to-Business Marketing Different?, also discusses the factors that make B2B marketing so unique and effective. The article agrees that B2B 'products and services are typically complex and sophisticated' in comparison to those of some consumer marketing campaigns, identifying key differences between the two styles:
B2B selling propositions are complex propositions that must present value-based differentiated solutions that support rational buying decisions. Fluff may get attention, but it's not going to sway the purchasing decision. Complex differences must be articulated and delivered through intelligent and compelling communication strategies.
The article goes on to argue that the approach to sales and marketing is extremely different in a B2B setting, demanding a higher level of expertise from staff:
Unlike sales to consumers, B2B marketing doesn't happen through tightly-controlled, highly crafted communications vehicles like television commercials or other mass media. One-to-one customer relationship building, through personal interaction, demands sophisticated sales management and an educated, knowledgeable, trained staff whose words and actions are aligned with corporate brand objectives.
Clients are actively seeking out Source Marketing Direct to provide representation for their brands for the reasons identified above. The company's direct approach to sales and customer service allows a personal, tailored presentation, as well as instant feedback on products and services. Face-to-face interaction promotes the development of ongoing personal and professional relationships that build trust, not only in a representative, but also in a brand.
B2B marketing certainly comes with its own set of challenges, however, Source Marketing Direct is already tackling some of these challenges on a daily basis and is excited to be at the forefront of the promotion of a dynamic app in a brand new marketplace. The firm works with clients to develop long-term strategic campaigns to best represent brands, and a central part of the company's ethos is centred on forging personal relationships within the target market, whether this is a business or a consumer.
