COMPETITION TRIBUNAL OF SOUTH AFRICA Case No: 105/LM/Dec11 In the matter between: First Rand Bank Limited Acquiring Firm And The property owned by Old Mutual Life Assurance Company (South Africa) Limited, located at Erf number 173019 Cape Town Target Firm Panel : Norman Manoim (Presiding Member) Andreas Wessels (Tribunal Member) and Medi Mokuena (Tribunal Member) Heard on : 01 February 2012 Order issued on : 01 February 2012 Reasons issued on : 01 February 2012 Reasons for Decision Approval [1] On 01 February 2012 the Competition Tribunal ("Tribunal") approved the merger between First Rand bank Limited and the property owned by Old Mutual Life Assurance Company (South Africa) Limited, located at Erf number 173019, Cape Town CBD. The reasons for approving the proposed transaction follow below. 1 Parties to the transaction [2] The primary acquiring firm is First Rand Bank Limited ("FRB"), a company whose activities include retail, corporate, investment and merchant banking. [3] Old Mutual Life Assurance Company (South Africa) Limited ("OMLACSA") is the current owner of the property located at Erf number 173019, which is located in the Cape Town CBD. Proposed transaction [4] The proposed transaction involves FRB's acquisition of 50% of the Basement Units and 50% of the Real Rights, whilst OMLACSA retains the other half. FRB and OMLACSA have concluded a joint ownership agreement which reflects their intention to co-develop the site into AAA-grade commercial office space, with a small retail component. FRB will use its portion as a regional head office and FNB branch, whilst OMLACSA will use its portion for office and retail space to third party tenants. Rationale for transaction [5] The rationale for the proposed merger is that the acquiring firm feels this is a preferred location from a strategic perspective from which to conduct business. Impact on competition [6] There is no product or geographic overlap between the activities of the parties, as FRB does not own any property which can be classified in the same grade or any classification within the Cape Town CBD node. Therefore the proposed transaction is unlikely to substantially prevent or lessen competition. Public interest 2 [7] The merging parties confirmed that there will be no adverse effect on employment as a result of the proposed transaction.1 No other public interest issues arise as a result of this transaction. CONCLUSION [8] We conclude that the proposed transaction is unlikely to substantially prevent or lessen competition in any relevant market. Furthermore, the proposed transaction raises no public interest concerns. Accordingly, we approve the proposed merger unconditionally. ____________________ 01 February 2012 NORMAN MANOIM DATE Andreas Wessels and Medi Mokuena concurring. Tribunal researcher: Nicola Ilgner For the merging parties: Edward Nathan Sonnenbergs For the Commission: Bheki Masilela 1 See page 71 of the record. 3

The Observation Deck
A blog of opinions on local, state and national issues
Posts by Author
New Year, old Congress
Our opinion: The protracted battle over the fiscal cliff has already done damage. Congress needs to understand that its penchant for inaction has consequences, too. Ah, the New Year. Time to resolve to break bad old habits. Like smoking. Overeating. Driving the nation to the brink of fiscal mayhem. As we write this editorial on […] [Read More]
Good riddance, Mr. Burke
Our opinion: One scam, involving Albany County and the state, is over. Why can't the laws be changed to prevent another? Say goodbye, Albany County, to John Burke. The $90,000-a-year sheriff's inspector who hasn't worked in nine months and has been living in Florida since last summer, all while collecting a paycheck, is off the county […] [Read More]
20 people who didn't have to die
Our opinion: Gun violence and gun control only are issues after a tragedy. Too many Capital Region residents die routinely at the end of a gun. Our legislators must address that now. Two weeks ago today, a gunman's bullets took the lives of 20 children and six adults at Sandy Hook Elementary School. Two weeks ago […] [Read More]
Mr. Cuomo's missed opportunity
Our opinion: The governor vetoes a bill to have unclaimed bottle deposits pay for environmental protection. How much longer will the state neglect that responsibility? And here we thought that Governor Cuomo was an environmentalist. He surely seemed so when he laid out his expectations of the new state Senate earlier this month. His environmental sensibilities […] [Read More]
Time to reform the filibuster
Our opinion: Filibustering is now a routine — and all too easy — way to block U.S. Senate legislation. This should not be a tool for mere political mischief. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell didn't realize his No. 1 goal — to make Barack Obama a one-term president — but he did achieve something else: He […] [Read More]
Merry Christmas
Note: We dug into our archives and stumbled on to this Christmas editorial from Dec. 25, 1992, that offered a fascinating connection between the Capital Region and the iconic poem, "A Visit from St. Nicholas," also known as "The Night Before Christmas." And it concludes, so appropriately for this moment in time, on children, to […] [Read More]

Mr. Obama draws the line
Our opinion: There are both reasonable compromises and irresponsible ones to be made to prevent a fiscal emergency. It's up to the Republicans, and how reckless they're determined to be. Now, that's the President Obama we thought we had re-elected, in what was essentially a referendum on economic policy and the economic divide in America. The […] [Read More]

Sports fans ensnared in Fox, Cablevision rate duel
NEW YORK For the third time this year, Cablevision's 3 million subscribers in New York and Philadelphia are at the mercy of one of its disputes with networks, and caught in the middle are sports fans who missed playoff baseball and Sunday's New York Giants game.
Negotiators for Cablevision and Fox parent News Corp. failed to reach an agreement over rates Sunday, more than a day after their deal expired amid negotiations for a new one. Fox pulled its channels and programming while the two sides discuss how much Cablevision will pay to carry them.
The two sides will meet again Monday, Fox spokesman Scott Grogin said. "House," the drama that's among Fox's highest-rated shows, airs Monday night at 8 p.m. EDT.
Cablevision spokesman Charles Schueler reiterated that arbitration would be "the fastest and fairest way to return Fox programming to Cablevision customers."
Fox 5 and My9 in New York and Fox29 in Philadelphia were dark, as well as cable channels Fox Business Network, NatGeo Wild and Fox Deportes.
"This is ridiculous!" said Kevin Ryan, owner of Denny's Bar, a family business in Brooklyn's Kensington neighborhood. "I'm relying on people to come in who are Giants fans - and they're walking out, even though I pay for the football package."
He blames his debacle on "typical billionaire behavior, against the small businessman like me; and regular, everyday people get caught in the middle."
Ryan said he expected to lose "a good amount of money over three big events": the Giants' 28-20 win over Detroit and the first two games of baseball's National League Championship Series between San Francisco and Philadelphia.
Cablevision subscribers have been victims of multiple blackouts this year. In March, customers lost their ABC station in New York in the hours leading up to the Oscars. Viewers missed the first 15 minutes of the awards show before Cablevision and Walt Disney Co. reached a tentative deal.
Scripps Networks Interactive Inc.'s Food Network and HGTV also went dark for three weeks in a similar dispute. Separately, Cablevision's Rainbow Media unit played hardball this summer with AT&T Inc. in fee negotiations over three channels: AMC, IFC and WE tv. That threatened AT&T's U-verse television customers' ability to watch the season premiere of AMC's "Mad Men."
Other industry standoffs this year have pitted Time Warner Cable Inc. against News Corp.'s Fox channels, which threatened the college bowl season and new episodes of "The Simpsons," and Mediacom Communications Corp. against Sinclair Broadcasting Group.
The latest dispute is another example of how networks are struggling to find profits as advertising revenue dwindles and programming costs grow. Networks are transmitted freely over the airwaves, but expensive event programming has increasingly led the companies behind them to demand fees from cable TV and satellite operators for retransmitting those signals.
Networks claim that cable companies charge customers hefty sums each month - about $18 - for basic broadcast signals but don't pass on enough payment to networks. Most broadcasters get a fee - say, $1 per cable subscriber - for allowing pay-TV providers to carry the channels on their lineups.

Suffragist Rosalie Jones of Long Island used a yellow horse-drawn wagon. Edna Kearns traveled in another suffrage wagon, the "Spirit of 1776." They toured, gave speeches, recruited supporters. At the end of the day, they were special guests of honor at dinner. See article below in The Long Islander. Note, however, that Edna's daughter is recorded as Irene. Actually, it was Serena. And little Serena was a suffrage poster child. Her onstage appearance in a suffrage pageant at the Metropolitan Opera in New York City is noted in this article., as well as the effort put into organizing on Long Island for Votes for Women.

As Michael Scott would say "Spoiler… A-lert." If you missed The Office last night, NBC has gone out of their way to please us and posted an extended Producer's Cut of the episode online. Sure, you'll have a strange craving for the technically undrinkable Sierra Mist afterwards, but it may actually be worth it. In addition, head honcho Greg Daniels live-blogged for about an hour last night, answering fan questions. It's funny, but fails to seriously answer any of your burning inquiries.
So if you actually saw "Branch Closing", you'll agree that it felt a little bit different than normal… in that things actually happened in the plot. Big things. Dare I even say, twists and turns? Jan tells Michael that Dunder Mifflin will be closing the Scranton branch, and that he'll be out of a job. Without giving too much away, let's just say that of course Steve Carell isn't leaving the show. And that America's Crush© Jim has another big move on his hands. So far, this season is shaping up to get really good… like The Fugitive good. Also, is it weird that we're rooting for a Michael/Jan romance just as bad as a Pam/Jim hump-a-thon? (Worst way to describe sex? Almost def.)
Finally, last night's Scene Stealer Award goes to Mindy Kaling, i.e. Kelly, who had by far the biggest laugh moments of the episode. As per usual, post fan-fic/thoughts in the comments.

Also (and this is a bit off-subject here), but one of the things I dislike about the Sun Deck/ORG merger is the fact that I can no longer create new threads here in the Sun Deck. No offense intended whatsoever to the board owners for implementing this policy and no offense intended to the ORG posters, but for whatever reason(s), I feel a tad bit more "at home" here in the good ole Sun Deck vs. the ORG...not sure why, I just do. I always enjoyed my time here on the Deck & simply never cared one iota to ever go through any sort of "vote-in" process to become an org member........but, with that out of the way, I'll ask the question here (that I would have simply created a new topic for otherwise):
How do you guys feel the Brewers will ultimately pan out this season? Started off the season looking pretty bad, got REALLY hot & now they seem to be shading back towards the "bad" end of the spectrum.
Braun is a great player, period. Weeks, well, I have to admit I have expected more from him. Aoki looks good. Lucroy is hit/miss, but can be clutch at times. Axford is not looking very good thus far. Starting pitching has been hit/miss.
So where do you guys/gals see 'em landing at seasons end?

David was invited to test Citroen's Red Bull sponsored world rally car by Sebastien Loeb, following his test for the Red Bull Formula One team in 2008. David accepted the invitation, but hastily added a pinch of caution, saying he didn't want to drive in the forest as at the rate he'd been crashing, he was uncomfortable with idea of driving in the bush.
In 2009, David, along with friends Jacques Villeneuve & Damon Hill, took part in a charity ski endurance race in Switzerland. The annual 24-hour race is sponsored by Jacques Villeneuve and his long-time business partner Craig Pollock.
Asked for the three things he most cherishes, David responds: Life, love and health.
David and fiancée, Karen Minier, welcomed their first child, a baby boy on November 25 2009. The couple named the 6lb child Dayton Minier Coulthard. David joked "He'll be signed up for Ferrari in 2028."
Earned through both his Red Bull retainer and sponsorship deals, as well as investments such as his Monaco hotel, David placed second on the Scottish high-earners list, just behind tennis player Andy Murray ($18.2m) in 2008.
David took up a position with the BBC in 2009, to commentate on Formula One races alongside Martin Brundle, Eddie Jordan, Jonathan Legard, Lee McKenzie and Ted Kravitz.
In 2008 David was invited to test Citroen's Red Bull sponsored world rally car.
Scott Speed was fined $5000 by the FIA stewards after swearing at David during a hearing that also saw him lose his eighth place for passing under yellows. Speed told David to f*ck Off'.
David announced his retirement from Formula One racing at the 2008 British GP. He raced in 15 consecutive seasons, with 13 wins. At the age of 37 he was the oldest active race driver.
David was fined 4,000 Euros for missing the Sunday drivers' parade for the 2008 Spanish GP. The drivers' parade is mandatory for all drivers. David, who had to pay the fine out of his own pocket, attempted in vain to have the penalty reduced when he spoke to the race stewards after Sunday's grand prix.
David's favorite actors are Mel Gibson and Sylvester Stallone.
David's hobbies include: Golf, cycling, yachting & watching movies.
David wore special helmet colours for the Japanese GP in honour of fellow Scot and friend Colin McRae. The former Rally world champion died in September 2007 along with his five year old son Johnny and two family friends when the helicopter he was piloting crashed in Scotland.
In September 2007 David released his autobiography titled, It Is What It Is.
In July 2007 it was revealed David was set to secure a multi-million dollar windfall by selling his five-star hotel Columbus in Monaco. David co-owns the hotel with hotel magnate and fellow millionaire Ken McCulloch, who had apparently fallen out with a third partner, Chicago-based Peter Morris. It was reported in British newspapers that the pair were seeking (US) $70 million.
In June 2007, David was a guest of Ireland's rally tarmac champion Eugene Donnelly, and advised the new Reid team 'on all aspects of team building as well as diet, training and the mental approach to competitive driving'. David also drove Donnelly's Subaru Impreza, ahead of the Donegal International Rally, held in the northwest of Ireland.
Witnesses have said the terrifying shunt between David and Alex Wurz at the 2007 Australian GP could easily have been F1's worst moment since the horror Imola weekend of 1994. Alex's helmeted head nearly bore the brunt of David's flying Red Bull. At a speed in the range of 160kph, the distance between the left sidepod of David's RB3 and Williams racer Alex's face is estimated at about 15cm.
David has his own museum in his birthplace of Twynholm in Scotland. Started by his father Duncan, it houses nearly every trophy and artefact David has won or collected during his career.
On February 7th, 2007, a Monaco court fined David 500 euros (330 pounds) for injuring a woman passenger when he crashed his Mercedes during a high-speed tour of the principality's grand prix circuit in 1999. David was travelling at 100-150 kph through the tunnel on the night of the accident in April 1999, several weeks before that year's Monaco GP. The passenger was slightly hurt but withdrew her complaint in 2002, the year in which he took his second Monaco victory for Mercedes-powered McLaren, after being compensated by the driver. The court still fined David after finding him guilty of accidental injury.
David was beaten by Yvan Muller in an Aston Martin in the 2006 Race Of Champions.
David asked Belgian girlfriend, former F1 TV journalist for France's TF1, Karen Minier, to marry him on Friday 2 June 2008. In July 2008 they revealed they were expecting their first child together
David wore a cape on the podium as he celebrated 3rd place at the 2006 Monaco GP. This was in response to the Red Bull tam promoting the new 2006 Superman movie starring Kevin Spacey.
David's manager is Martin Brundle, a former F1 driver.
On 2nd May 2000, DC and his then girlfriend, Heidi Winchelski, survived a plane crash which killed both pilots. David drove in the 2000 Spanish Grand Prix just days after the incident.
In 1989 David was the British FF1600 Champion. In 1991 he was the European F3 Marlboro Masters winner and in 1993 he was the Le Mans 24 Hr GT Class winner. His first Formula One win was in Portugal, 1995.
DC's helmet design was painted by Stranraer karter Brian Smith as a thank you to his father for sponsorship in karting.
DC lives in Monaco and owns several luxury hotels in Britain and Monaco, including the Columbus, which is located in Monaco's Fontvieille. [2008]
David is the highest-scoring British driver ever with 500 points (as of the 2006 Australian Grand Prix), beating Nigel Mansell's previous record of 482 points.
In 1990, he suffered a broken leg at the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps, yet still came back the following year to win Formula 3 races at Zandvoort, Netherlands and Macau, China.
David began racing in Formula Ford in 1989. His performance was so impressive that he won the first ever McLaren/Autosport Young Driver of the Year award.
DC's Championship results:
1994: 8th, 14 points (Williams)

DC is 1.82m tall and weights approx 72.5kg.
DC dropped out of a Business Studies computing course at college to pursue motor racing.
David attended Twynholm Primary School (1976-1983) and Kirkcudbright Academy (1983-1986). He later dropped out of a Business Studies computing course at college to pursue motor racing.
David (after being taken out of his final ever F1 GP on the 2nd corner) I'm pretty gutted, it's not how I wanted to end my career. I took a cautious approach into Turn one and left plenty of space for the car on the inside, but unfortunately I think Rosberg hit me though Turn two, which spun me round. I thought it would be okay, but then Nakajima ran into the front of my car and took off the front corner. I felt good on the warm up laps going to the grid, I had no problem with it being wet and I wanted to get to the chequered flag. I was going to do some doughnuts for the crowd, which is something you normally get fined for, but it didn't work out.
I can't complain though, I've had a good career, so thank you to everyone who has supported me. Thank you also to the efforts of every member of the Red Bull Racing team for the last four years, which have been a lot of fun, I look forward to continuing to work with them in the future. I've been overwhelmed by the level of support I've had from the paddock this weekend, it means a great deal to me that so many people have taken the time to say 'nice career and good luck with the future'. And, in the absence of a World Championship, I think if I can leave with that, then that's a good ending.
David: Years ago I had the theory that ultimately I wanted a boat, a place by the sea, a city place and a place in the mountains and when I was lucky enough to have each of those I wanted to know which one I enjoyed the most. And I realised I enjoyed them all in equal measures, just at different times of the year.
David: (on what he's going to miss about Formula One after he retires) The adrenaline rush of the pressure and intensity of getting out there and having to do it against the clock.
David: (announcing his retirement from Formula One racing at the end of the 2008 season) I would like to announce today my decision to retire from racing in Formula One at the end of this season. I will remain actively involved in the sport as a consultant to Red Bull Racing focusing on testing and development of the cars.
David: (joking about trying to avoid a fine for missing the drivers' parade at the 2008 Spanish GP) When I was with the stewards I said thank you for hearing what I had to say about the race, but can we talk about another event. I said: 'You've fined me 4,000 Euros, I've done 230-odd grands prix and never missed one except for Malaysia where I was ill and in the medical centre. So that's 4,000 Euros out of my children's inheritance!' There was no reaction from them. No smile or anything. So I then said to them: 'Okay, let's cut it to 2000 Euros if I pay in cash.' Still no reaction. So I then asked (FIA representative) Alan Donnelly if he could translate that, because that is somewhat funny in English. But he said it was only funny in Scottish... I've told Karen [fiancé] no shopping and next week no food on the table. We'll take the pain together!
David: (joking that Felipe Massa should apologise for their crash during the 2008 Aus GP) If he doesn't, then I'm gonna kick three colours of shit out of the little bastard.
David: (on the tragic death of Colin McRae in a helicopter accident in September 2007) It's shocking, Colin was a friend, as is his lovely wife Alison and the family. So obviously there's disbelief here in the whole paddock that the McRaes have been affected in this way, and obviously another family as well. It's tragic circumstances.
David: (revealing he was once bulimic) I stopped eating fattening food and, before I knew what had happened, I was bulimic. In my mind the only way I could keep my weight down was by making myself vomit. At first I was just very, very lean. I became skin and bone, but I weighed myself every morning, noon and night - in the evening if I was half a pound heavier, I'd get in the pool and swim.
David: (on speculation he is to retire) I'm irritated to have to answer questions based on the fact I was born in 1971. The statistics show I am quicker in the races than Mark and the car telemetry shows it too. End of story.
David: I destroyed a Williams on the day that Frank (Williams) came to Jerez to tell me I'd got the drive for this (his first) grand prix. I had never damaged a Williams in the two years that I had driven there. Nothing. I still don't know today whether I dropped it or something broke.
David: (taking a dig at a few of his colleagues) I don't pay for my cockpit or have a father who drove in Formula One - I am still here because my team believes that I bring them value by performing at the highest level.
David: (refuting rumours he will retire after the 2006 season) Michael Schumacher is older than me and he is still winning. I go every year to a clinic ... where they check everything out. I know that I am fit and well and not about to die. I am not retiring. Why can't people understand this?
David: (abusing Juan Pablo Montoya in the press after qualifying at the 2006 British GP) I wouldn't waste my time by going to see Juan Pablo. It would be like going to a zoo and trying to communicate with a chimpanzee. We speak a different language and have a different racing etiquette, so there is no point talking to him.
David: As for my best performance, that would be Magny Cours 2001. I had to overtake Rubens and Michael and I was stronger than my team-mate all weekend. Mika was a great benchmark for me because he was so fast. I had a real battle to pass Michael which resulted in me giving him 'that hand signal' and I've still got the photograph of the incident on top of the TV in my motorhome!"
David: The start of my career was pretty difficult as it came about after Roland and Ayrton had died at the San Marino GP in Imola. Williams ran only one car in the following race, Monaco, as a mark of respect for Ayrton and then made me a Grand Prix driver at the Spanish GP in 1994, so my opportunity definitely came with mixed emotions.
David: I am not motivated by recognition, I just do things I like doing - racing, shagging, eating and drinking.
In June 2005, David was interviewed by ITV's Louise Goodman before the start of the Canadian Grand Prix.
Louise: Have you been practising with that pit lane speed limiter?
David: Yeah I have. I've just been imagining it's your nipples. I'm being a bit more gentle with it when I take my finger off it at the end of the pit lane!
David: (on racing an F1 car) It's like that great magical moment when you meet someone you haven't seen for a while but were emotionally close to.... Or that first kiss... that tingling feeling you can't quite explain, but it feels good and you wish you could tell somebody about it.
When David first met the Spice Girls, the pop stars had no idea who he was:
DC: I'm David Coulthard, the driver.
Spice Girl: Oh, right. What time are you coming to pick us up, then?
No one has discussed David Coulthard yet. Start a conversation!

text: ''Donald Duck: Goin' Qu@ckers'' is a DonaldDuck game made by Creator/{{Ubisoft}} in 2000, in dedication to CarlBarks, who had passed away a short time earlier. It was originally released for the {{Nintendo 64}}, SegaDreamcast and Sony PlayStation, with different soundtracks. The GameBoyColor and the GameBoyAdvance got 2D versions of the game, and later a remake was made for the PlayStation2 and the GameCube.When Daisy, who is a reporter as in ''QuackPack'', is spying on Merlock's evil plans, she's captured. Donald has to travel around the world to set antennas which will power Gyro's teleporter and allow him [Donald] to reach the temple in which she's imprisoned. Gladstone also appears in the story and, oddly, he's quite unlucky and a ButtMonkey.Gameplay in the game's four worlds is simple, fast-paced and somewhat easy. The items required to unlock boss fights and extra levels are often found in plain view and require little effort to collect them. The remake added a combo mechanic in which the player can input codes to make Donald invincible.----!Quackin' tropes in this game include:* OneUp: Donald's face surrounded by light, or a sphere with Donald's face in it.* TwoAndAHalfD: At least one level per world features this.* AWinnerIsYou: the GBA version's take on the original game's ending is a rather anticlimatic shot of Donald reuniting with Daisy and Gyro, followed by something along the lines of "and then everybody in Duckburg threw a big party" and then just "TheEnd". Cue the main menu.* AdvancingBossOfDoom: The final battle against Merlock in the Nintendo 64 version involves Donald Duck running and activating three switches before getting into a cannon to shoot Merlock's amulet while being chased by Merlock in the form of a winged beast. This is done three times, one for each unit of Merlock's health.* AdvancingWallOfDoom: In the extra levels, Donald must run away from something. In the remake, the pursuer is always the giant glove ([[SuperSmashBros Master Hand?]]) from Magica's Manor. In the GBA version, those levels are mandatory. The trope is also inverted by having Donald chase after a squirrel... ''[[FridgeLogic for absolutely no reason]]'', since Donald can't catch it and the squirrel isn't ever shown doing anything to Donald.* AndYourRewardIsClothes: If you beat the levels in Time Attack mode, you get more clothes for Donald. Interestingly, the tourist outfit is what he wears in ''Quack Pack'', but he also gets a cap, which brings Maui Mallard to mind...* {{Anticlimax}}: The last thing you do in the long extra level of the GBC version is to break a ominous skull barrier. There's no BonusBoss after it.* AshFace: Happens to Magica after she is defeated in the original version of the game.* AttractMode: Available as an option in the GBC and GBA versions. The first one on the GBC quickly teaches everything you need to know about the game's mechanics.* BadassAdorable: As this is a DonaldDuck game, he's portrayed as being much more courageous and cheerful than usual. His usual duck voice helps, too.* BearsAreBadNews: For the extra level in the forest, Donald is chased by a bear (see AdvancingWallOfDoom above). In the GBC version, Donald has a BossBattle against Humphrey the Bear.* BigBad: Merlock from the ''[=DuckTales=]'' movie.* BigBallOfViolence: Donald's MercyMode animation if he's hit.* BossBattle: Against a giant chicken, a Beagle Boy, Magica and Merlock. The GBC version replaces the giant chicken with Humphrey the Bear. In the GBA version, only Merlock is present.* BottomlessPits* DemotedToExtra: Gladstone appears on the password screen of the GBA version, but is left out of the actual story.* DisneyVillainDeath: The fate of some bosses, depending of the version.* DoubleJump: Donald can do it in this game. In the portable versions, it is justified by him kicking the air with WheelOFeet to do it.* EventFlag: As the GBC version is obviously made in a ''Rayman'' engine, Donald finds yellow coins that trigger objects in the levels.* FinalBoss: Merlock. In fact, he is the ''only'' boss on the GBA version.* ForcedTutorial: In the remake's first level. Originally, getting instructions was optional.* GameBreakingBug: In the GBA version's FinalBoss fight, it might look like a good idea to save those sundaes that Bat-Merlock drops for later use, but remember that the game ''kills you'' if you get hit while standing at them!* GetBackHereBoss: Magica De Spell in the original version of the game, as Donald chases her in between the segments where he is able to hurt her.* GoombaStomp: Many enemies can be defeated by jumping on them.* GroundPound: Doable in the GBC version if Donald is powered up.* HyperactiveSprite: In the remake, Donald's idle animation in his happy mode has him dancing and shaking his butt around. It looks like an exaggerated version of the idle animation from ''VideoGame/TheLuckyDimeCaper''. * [[IWasBeatenByAGirl I Was Defeated by Donald Duck]]: The Beagle Boys and Magica say this when defeated, as if it was surprising or the first time it happened.* IdleAnimation: If he's left still for a while, Donald dreams about Daisy, then wakes up and hugs the thought balloon. He has other animations for his other clothes.* IndyEscape: In the GBA version, the chase level in Merlock's temple features the giant rock.* LawOfOneHundred: Each hundred of those stars/coins/gears awards you an extra life.* MarathonLevel: Some levels in the GBC version, especially the extra level.* MarketBasedTitle: The game is called Quack Attack in European releases.* MookMaker: Magica can summon normal enemies during her boss fight, summoning pumpkin monsters in the original version and skeletons in the remake.* MythologyGag: The game is essentially a big love letter to the Donald Duck franchise. Characters from the Disney Duck Comics universe appear (including Gladstone Gander, Gyro Gearloose, and Magica De Spell), Daisy is a news reporter as she was in WesternAnimation/QuackPack, and Humphrey the Bear is even featured in the GBC and GBA versions.* PainPoweredLeap: If Donald falls into lava.* PaintingTheMedium: Running out of time in time attack mode makes the clock on the heads-up display fall on Donald's head.* PasswordSave: In the portable versions. Yes, even in the GBA...* PuzzleBoss: In the remake, Magica De Spell is not directly beaten and instead loses health whenever you defeat one of the skeletons she summons.* ReformulatedGame: The GBC and GBA version are completely 2D, of course. Both versions have unique level design and a slighty different plot. And then the game got remade for the PS2 and Game Cube.* RoguesGalleryTransplant: Merlock serves as the main villain of a Donald Duck game after menacing Scrooge [=McDuck=] and his grandnephews Huey, Dewey, and Louie in ''WesternAnimation/DuckTalesTheMovieTreasureOfTheLostLamp''.* SayMyName: "DAISSSSYYY!!", screams Donald if he falls into lava.* TheSpiny: Some enemies can't be stomped.* SpiritualSuccessor: It is very apparent that the GBC version was created over the Rayman game for the portable.* SuperStar: The sundae item makes Donald invincible if he was in full health when he got it (it doesn't work in ''Advance''). The GBC version has an item that makes Donald invincible and able to crush barriers and butt-stomp. The remake has the Special Move mechanic, which also grants invincibility.* SuperTitle64Advance: ''Donald Duck "Adv@nce"!*#''.* TimedMission: A time attack mode becomes available in levels that have been cleared once.* VariableMix: If Donald is at full health, the music plays normally. If he grabs the orange juice item, the music gains additional drums and the sound intensity increases. If his health is low, the drums drop out and the remainder of the music sounds washed-out.* VictoryPose: Donald taking off his hat and bowing cutely in the GBC version. In the remake he has an extravagant dance.* WheelOFeet: Present in some of Donald's animations in the portable versions.* WingedSoulFliesOffAtDeath: The chicken boss dies this way in the PSX version.* WolfpackBoss: The remake for PS2 and Game Cube has the Duckburg boss fight be against three Beagle Boys controlling the crane instead of just one.----

This application is related to an issued U.S. Patent entitled, "System, Method And Computer-Program Product For Transferring A Numerical Control Program To Thereby Control A Machine Tool Controller" U.S. Pat. No. 6,834,214, issued on Dec. 21, 2004, and to the application entitled "System, Method And Computer Program Product For Controlling The Operation Of Motion Devices By Directly Implementing Electronic Simulation Information" Ser. No. 09/942,872, published as Application No. 2003/0045947 filed on Aug. 30, 2001. The disclosure of these prior patent and application is considered part of (and are incorporated by reference in) the disclosure of this application.
This invention relates generally to Manufacturing and, more specifically, to Information Technology.
Over the last 25 years or more, manufacturers have invested in computer systems to help run their operations. Manufacturers designed the systems on an ad hoc basis. Early manufacturing information systems were custom built with specific software developed for a particular manufacturer's operating style, hardware, or reporting needs. These custom systems proved to be costly not only at the installation and implementation phases but also later when debugging after implementation. Because such a system is unique to the manufacturer, there exists no insight gained in the course of service of a particular product. Each installation was sui generis, an installation onto itself.
Throughout the nineties, large manufactures have moved toward the purchase of high-end commercial off-the-shelf software for the purpose of defining and completing several of the tasks necessary to manufacture product. The motivation for doing so was, at least two-fold. Manufactures spent less for the purchase of commercial grade off-the-shelf software, and the manufacturer could anticipate less downtime during service cycles because developers have derived much of the knowledge of particular glitches and bugs in servicing similar installations of the same software.
Nonetheless, these off-the-shelf software products carried with them a new hidden cost. Each of the off-the-shelf applications are, themselves, designed as the top-level logic necessary to control specific portions of the manufacturing process. Each functions as though in a vacuum without significant interaction with other systems.
Unfortunately, by placing these software products at the highest level, information managed by a particular software product is not accessible to those specifically permitted to use the information. Thus, MRPII/ERP systems cannot share information with CAD/CAM systems and likewise, CAD/CAM systems cannot share information with numeric control systems. Enterprise systems stand alone. As each system is put in place, it stands autonomous, where it reigns supreme over information necessary in its particular domain. As a result, the manufacturer who purchases some of the best software products in each field ends up isolating the information used for each phase of manufacturing.
Very few cross-system information portals exist. Those that do exist such as Enovia� for the CATIA� computer assisted drafting and design program do not actually port information across but rather act as a browser and extension of the program and not a proper portal for information by other manufacturers. The bridge is a human bridge, carrying information to the site needed. While such bridges do allow the broadcast of information controlled by the software, they do not afford an actual sharing of information between programs without the introduction of key operator error.
As a result of the vast number of computer products used in manufacture, the information necessary to make decisions within the factory exists in a patchwork quilt of domains in the control of a plurality of high-end programs analogous to the resources of feudal England in the control of a number of feudal lords. The effects of this feudal control over information can be seen through various sets of eyes within the manufacturing system. In studies conducted by the applicant, up to 45% of some worker's time spent in production is attributable to logging into and out of the various domains that control tools, design specifications, manpower tasking, and planning data. For instance, a lead machinist might spend 33 minutes per day per task receiving job assignments for the day; for each order it may take as much as 13 minutes to check the appropriate tools out of the tool crib and the necessary part data for assembly. The actual production of the part may take as little as 12 minutes per order, but then logging off of a particular part may take an additional 8 minutes per order. In short, a large part of a productive worker's day is given over to the task of logging into and out of various systems necessary to control data or tools.
On average, in one person's workday, 55% is spent in activities that add value to the manufactured product, the other 45% is given to administrative overhead of logging into and out of various systems to schedule work, track work, gather data necessary to do work, closing the work, and notifying a system of the completion of that work. Manual methods order and input data, order tools, parts and information, and execute hundreds of repetitive and routine transactions as though they were decisions requiring human judgment.
The administrative overhead of logging into and out of various systems has also proven to be the least satisfying portion of an individual worker's job tasking for a given day. The tasks appurtenant to the logging into and out of various systems are repetitive and redundant, and while computers have allowed automated production of many assemblies in the manufacturing process, they have not delivered on their promise to take repetitive and redundant work out of the realm of skilled labor. Computers are very well suited to performing the tasks of logging into and out of various domains and removing the information management overhead from the worker's day.
What is needed is a higher-level meta-layer of software that will lessen the information overhead and will be an effective port of information to all individuals at any level of the manufacturing process. Such a solution could also be used to port critical information to vendors, customers, and suppliers thereby allowing rapid changes in tooling in response to perceived needs. Management decisions with regard to such needs will be better informed where information can be ported to decision makers. A highly intuitive interface for presenting the information is desirable as the same will allow data that was previously available only to specialists to be presented to all who need to be "in the know" without paying a high training premium. Thus, what is needed is a browser-like interface for bi-directional access to manufacturing data.
The instant invention is a method, software product, and system for sharing information within a manufacturing facility. By use of a browser and a uniform look and feel of the data presented to the browser, the inventive system presents the information that might assist any employee of the manufacturing facility with in any aspect of employment. By virtue the inventive system, the employees of the facility may access information without separate log-ins; may automate numerous of the processes within the facility including checking out tools and cutters from tool cribs; requisitioning materials; and, signing off of various tasks for timekeeping purposes.
The present invention comprises a high-level meta-layer for integrating the communications within a manufacturing facility comprising a graphic user interface, a structured data exchange and software wrappers allowing access to the several software servers within the manufacturing facility.
In accordance with further aspects of the invention, allows remote access to the software servers allowing employees to perform their tasks at locations remote to the factory.
In accordance with other aspects of the invention, the graphic user interface is implemented with a browser making the look and feel of the operation of the software uniform for all users.
As will be readily appreciated from the foregoing summary, the invention provides for implementation across great geographic distances allowing for the provision of workstations remote from the factory floor.
The preferred and alternative embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the following drawings.
Modern factories comprise numbers of automated machines and tooling that are driven by embedded processors. Servers in these factories send detailed specifications for the produced parts, sub-assemblies, assemblies, and products. Computers also manage administrative functions; these functions include the provision of materials, parts, and tools. Each of these existing or "legacy" systems are built for the task at hand and generally will not include a single standard for sharing data and transmitting information to other legacy systems within the factory.

Here, the inventive system set forth in
The most striking element of the invention evident in
To support that browser 68, the system has a graphic user interface engine such as JAVA. One of the requirements for a suitable engine is that the interface engine be suited to a distributed computer environment. Today, major software makers are fostering an object-oriented view of distributed computing. Any graphic user interface engine apropos to a distributed computer environment will work for such an application and every reference herein to JAVA is intended to include all such engines.
One reason for designating Java as one of the several engines available for this application is that JAVA is a programming language expressly designed for use in the distributed environment of the Internet. It was designed to have the "look and feel" of the C++ language, but it is simpler to use than C++ and enforces an object-oriented programming model. Java can be used to create complete applications that may run on a single computer or be distributed among servers and clients in a network. It can also be used to build a small application module or applet for use as part of a Web page. Applets make it possible for a Web page user to interact with the page.
JAVA has portability within a network. The source program is compiled into what Java calls bytecode, which can be run anywhere in a network on a server or client that has a Java virtual machine. The Java virtual machine interprets the bytecode into code that will run on the real computer hardware. This means that individual computer platform differences such as instruction lengths can be recognized and accommodated locally just as the program is being executed. Platform-specific versions of your program are no longer needed.
The code is robust, here meaning that, unlike programs written in C++ and perhaps some other languages, the Java objects can contain no references to data external to themselves or other known objects. This ensures that an instruction cannot contain the address of data storage in another application or in the operating system itself, either of which would cause the program and perhaps the operating system itself to terminate or "crash." The Java virtual machine makes a number of checks on each object to ensure integrity.
Java is object-oriented, which means that, among other characteristics, an object can take advantage of being part of a class of objects and inherit code that is common to the class. Objects are thought of as "nouns" that a user might relate to rather than the traditional procedural "verbs." A method can be thought of as one of the object's capabilities or behaviors. For these reasons, JAVA stands as one among the candidates for operation as the Graphic User Interface.
Extending from the Graphic User Interface Generator 70 to the Networking Infrastructure 75 is a Structured Data Exchange 72. The Structured Data Exchange 72 is the mediating language between the several legacy systems within the distributed computer environment. If the Graphic User Interface 70 is the two-way communications portal between the system and the individual user, there must be a translation means between the uniform language of the graphic user interface 70 that will interpret the signals the interface generates into requests for the legacy programs as objects.
One means of enabling this system is to "objectify" the legacy programs. If a user click on a screen evokes the projection of the parts catalogue on the screen, the Graphic User Interface Generator 70 will generate a code in terms that will generally be uniform over the page. Once the code identifies a function, the Structured Data Exchange 72 develops a uniform means of packaging the request as a request for an object. Doing so requires two things to occur. First, the system designer must make the requests uniform across all platforms. Second, the responses to those requests must be uniform across all platforms. If, for instance, there exist two definitions for a part (distinct as it appears in each of two legacy programs), that part must have a definition that reflects one or the other of the definitions, or, itself, is a third definition. Implicit is a lookup table that allows the translation of uniform part definition into the remaining definitions necessary so that the part in one program means the part in another program and means the part across the system. The Structured Data Exchange 72 will use that uniform language.
The network infrastructure 75 is any such network structure as in common use. In information technology, a network is a series of points or node interconnected by communication paths. Networks can interconnect with other networks and contain sub-networks.
The most common topology or general configurations of networks include the bus, star, and token ring topologies. Networks can also be characterized in terms of spatial distance as local area networks (LAN), metropolitan area networks (MAN), and wide area networks (WAN).
Another classification for a given network is the type of data transmission technology in use on it (for example, a TCP/IP or Systems Network Architecture network). The network might carry voice, data, or both kinds of signals; the network might be public or private; the network might be either dial-up or switched, dedicated or non-switched, or virtual connections; and by the types of physical links (for example, optical fiber, coaxial cable, and Unshielded Twisted Pair). Large telephone networks and networks using their infrastructure (such as the Internet) have sharing and exchange arrangements with other companies so that larger networks are created. All of these are possible platforms for this system; each platform is qualified by using appropriate protocols.
The network is the central trunk of the system. The several components, the browser 68, the graphic user interface 70, and the structured data exchange 72, have as their purpose the translation of the user requests to computer-readable requests on the network 75. The remaining components have a rough symmetry in purpose, facilitating communication between the legacy servers 90 and the network interface 75. Set forth in the diagram are several of the most common means of facilitating the conversation between these legacy servers 90 and the network 75.
CORBA is a very common means of "wrapping" legacy software.
Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) is an architecture and specification for creating, distributing, and managing distributed program objects in a network. It allows programs at different locations and developed by different vendors to communicate in a network through an "interface broker." CORBA was developed by a consortium of vendors through the Object Management Group (OMG), which currently includes over 500 member companies. Both International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and X/Open have sanctioned CORBA as the standard architecture for distributed objects (which are also known as components). CORBA 3 is the latest level.
The essential concept in CORBA is the Object Request Broker (ORB) 80. ORB 80 support in a network of clients and servers on different computers means that a client program (which may itself be an object) can request services from a server program or object without having to understand where the server is in a distributed network or what the interface to the server program looks like. To make requests or return replies between the ORBs 80, programs use internal API's 78, either the General Inter-ORB Protocol (GIOP) and, for the Internet, its Internet Inter-ORB Protocol (IIOP). IIOP maps GIOP requests and replies to the Internet's Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) layer in each computer. An application program interface ("API" and sometimes spelled application programming interface) is the specific method prescribed by a computer operating system or by an application program by which a programmer writing an application program can make requests of the operating system or another application.
Another means of connecting legacy servers 90 to the network through wrappers 86. In programming, a wrapper 86 is a program or script that sets the stage and makes possible the running of another, more important program. Wrappers 86 can "objectify" legacy programs. By wrapping the access to these legacy servers, the servers operate within their own environment while the wrappers may simulate the interactions that a logged in user would normally supply to the system. The wrapper 86 mediates the language of the legacy server 90 and the structured data exchange 72.
Still another means is to work around the legacy software by creating a data browser. For many high level data sets, such as those constructed in a computer assisted drafting program, it is not necessary to invoke all aspects of a very complex software, nor is it desirable. Once the design engineers have fully defined the product, access to the design plans should be on a read only basis. Data browsers 84 look past the software to the data to inform the system. Autodesk� offers such a viewer known as Volo View�. It is within the scope of programmers skilled in the art to readily draft source code for such viewers.
For each user logging on to the system, the system must impart security levels for each of the legacy servers consistent with the user's role in production. Each role evokes a constellation of log-ins to the several servers unique to that role. With each of the legacy servers, there exists a level of access and that level of access might be variable across the servers.
The role definition screen as portrayed in
When Mr. Smith logs in on a job, the computer knows what assignments Mr. Smith will receive. Beyond that, because of associations stored within the computer between assignments or tasks and tools, the computer is aware of the necessary tools and materials. Still further, the computer can provide, at the browser detailed pictorial instructions showing the best method stored therein for completing the task. The computer obviates the needs to sign into the tool crib to check out tools, to request materials for the task, to requisition cutters, and to look up assembly instructions. All of this is possible because of the association between Mr. Smith and his role.
Within this page are many of the elements set forth to assist and to organize the employee. Primary among these is the organizer element comprising the e-mail browser 126 and the calendar 128. In this embodiment, the elements draw from software such as Microsoft Exchange� 126 and Microsoft Schedule+128, though any commercially available software would serve with equal facility.
Apart from the several organizer elements, the Personal Portal is user-customizable. Mr. Smith 118 has included links to his benefits page 131 from the Human Resources Department; the Company Stock ticker 134; the Dow Smith Index ticker 137; and a series of bookmarks 144. He has also added news links such as Reuter's Headlines 150; Yahoo News 152; the local weather 141; his personal investment portfolio 139; and the box scores for Kansas City 154. Each of these choices and many others are configurable by the user to maximize the utility of the page. Just as many internet web services allow for the customization of a home, the same technology allows employees here to constitute their personal web pages.
The part catalogue 167 automatically serves the necessary part information for each task as the employee logs onto that task. For any single part, the catalogue can present the part number, a verbose description, a due date, an estimated completion date, book time for production, an operation code, and the assignment to Mr. Smith, the status report, and for whom the part might be held. This information would normally exist in manuals or in stovepipe information systems at the assignment desk for reference. By lowering the threshold to this information, the manufacturer assures the ease of checking. Lowering this threshold, in turn, assures better quality control.
Not only will the system inform the actions of machinists and machinery operators but also those assembling the various machined parts.
When the operator has machined, formed, or fabricated an assembly, the operator rarely had access to the quality control data generated when inspectors measure the machined, formed, or fabricated assembly. In
Similarly, when the Numeric Control programmers sign onto their desktop computers 205, they are given access to data found on dozens of servers: CGTech 256 for simulation data; DIRRECT/WebDIRRECT 259 for 3-Dimensioned models; OLP 261 yields material data; DCAC 264 for scheduling information, etc.
The utility theme continues for the NC Machine Operator, such as Mr. Smith from our example.
As previously stated, the paradigm of the inventive system is to wrap the individual employees in a single unified interface allowing them to interact with the factory through a single unified browser portal. Understanding this paradigm, one can readily see that remote construction is possible by full exploitation of the inventive system. By use of this remote construction, skilled employees can be isolated from the environmental concerns of the shop floor. Where, for instance, noise or the presence of noxious fumes are a concern, the invention will allow these skilled employees to work removed from the noise or fumes. Indeed, where the vagaries of the labor market require it, the manufacturer might hire the skilled employees in an area where such employees are available, and the manufacturer might provide a remote factory control center close to the employee's residence while the work is done on a shop floor thousands of miles away.
Not only does the system curtail and tailor permissions, access and security for the various users, but additionally, the process can automate all of the necessary administrative support for their work. Inherent in the system is not only the knowledge of who is using the system, but for what they wanted to use it. To aid them in that, the system will log them onto and off the various servers necessary based upon the principal log-in. Extending that same principle, the system can order tools without waiting for the specific order from the user. The system optimizes the employee's tasks to the employee's skills, assuring the satisfaction and morale of the employee.
The advantages over the current system continue as the employee determines what cutter tools will be necessary. Rather than to review the hard copy of the priority paper 323 to determine the priority of tasks assigned, the employee needs only to view the screen projecting the priorities on screen, with the associated cutter tools 324. There is no need to review and discern the cutter tools necessary 327; there is no need to separately order cutters from the tool crib 330; order tooling from the crib 333. Nonetheless, Mr. Smith receives the necessary cutters both under the current system 336 and under the inventive system 337.
The process continues on
Just as the system has automated the setup of the machine, so, too, the system automates the tear down of the machine thereby obviating the need for the tear down step 344. Similarly, the system transports the completed part to the next step 347. Finally, Mr. Smith can clock the job closed 350 and 351.
At the base of the system is the study of each task necessary for production of the product. These studies yield immediate savings in each of the studied roles.
The rationale for these economies is portrayed in
To achieve these economies, a method for study is necessary.
As the human-necessary steps remain, the remaining and necessary steps must be programmed into the domain of the servers. Rather than to limit the role of the computers, the computers are used to allow the human users to luxuriate in the information available to allow the optimum performance of their work. Best methods of performance are recorded for representing to the employees 513. Through the provided browser interface, employees can have simultaneous views of the aspects of the workpiece necessary for proper placement 516. The browser allows the remote placement of the employee 519.
While the preferred embodiment of the invention has been illustrated and described, as noted above, many changes can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Accordingly, the scope of the invention is not limited by the disclosure of the preferred embodiment. Instead, the invention should be determined entirely by reference to the claims that follow.

"These looked fabulous. I was having a buffet and did not need the option lines for the entrees, and it was very easy to get those removed during the design process. I loved being able to see the digital proof before I finalized my order. I love this company!"
"I absolutely loved these invitations. I changed the color scheme to "rich red" and it looked perfect for my early fall wedding. I also had them write something on the back of the invite, and they totally understood what I was asking, and the finished product looked absolutely fabulous. I also wanted to call and speak with someone about my request to have some text printed on the back, and the gentleman that I spoke with was extremely professional and helpful. I ordered both my save the dates and invitations from this company and have been nothing short of 100% satisfied. Not to mention, I finalized my order on a Tuesday, and it was at my door on Saturday..so so fast!! It was awesome!"
"The response cards as simple and elegant. Wedding paper divas work with me to edit the card since we are having a pre-fixed menu. It turned out perfectly!"
"This design looks exactly the same in person as on the website. I loved the simple design. We are having our wedding on New Year's Eve so it fit in with the season perfectly."
"So beautiful! I wanted something that had that Fall feel without being "in your face" this design pays tribute to fall, but is subtle and abstract enough to not overwhelm the person reading the invitation. I also chose a different font so it would be easier to read, I suggest "Ameial" for the names and "Full Circle Bold" for the rest of the information."

2013 Review: The MYA No. 7 is Head''s answer to the woman who has excellent technique, has hung up her race boards, and likes to carve deep trenches in the corduroy. Basically, a womans iSupershape! The 7 features Worldcup Sandwich Construction with full sidewalls and adds Intelligence, or special fibers that transform mechanical impulses (created when you flex the ski) into electrical energy. The harder you ride, the more energy is produced! The electrical energy is led back to the Intellifibers which cause them to stiffen up, putting more rebound and torsional stiffness into the ski. Not only does the the No. 7 have intelligence, but the electrical energy produced by the Intellifibers is not just recycled, but accumulates and is released bit by bit through a preprogrammed chip, giving you a turbo boost at the end of your turns.
Kinetic Energy Recovery System KERS:
KERS Technology works like a turbo charger that provides additional power and acceleration by stiffening the tail of the ski in outturns.
Intellifibers positioned at 45 degrees in front of the binding transform mechanical impulses into electrical energy. The harder you ride, the more energy is produced. The electrical energy is led back to the Intellifibers. This causes them to stiffen up, putting more rebound and torsional stiffness into the ski.

Many don't realize that Head is one of the few major US born ski manufacturers. Started by aeronautical engineer Howard Head in 1950, the brand quickly became popular domestically and many skiers from the 1960's and 70's remember their beloved Head skis. What stands out most about Head skis is the technology in each ski. Aircoat cores, LiquidMetal energy recovery, and Intelligence electronic ski management are all technologies that Head has pioneered in alpine skis. As a sidenote, you guessed it, Head skis is the same company that produces tennis rackets as well as Penn tennis balls.

About the Study Results
More patients simultaneously achieved all three ADA lipid targets for HDL, triglycerides and LDL when receiving TRILIPIX in combination with rosuvastatin 10 mg (28.3 percent vs. 8.3 percent; p=0.012) or 20 mg (19.1 percent vs. 5.9 percent; p= 0.045) compared to rosuvastatin 10 mg or 20 mg alone, respectively. Additionally, TRILIPIX in combination with rosuvastatin 5 mg resulted in 21.7 percent of patients achieving all three ADA lipid targets simultaneously compared to 12.1 percent of patients receiving rosuvastatin 5 mg alone (p=0.137). TRILIPIX monotherapy resulted in 4.3 percent of patients obtaining simultaneous achievement of these goals.
"The clinical program continues to generate important data supporting the use of TRILIPIX in combination with rosuvastatin therapy in high risk patient populations," said Eugene Sun, M.D., vice president, Global Pharmaceutical Clinical Development, Abbott.
TRILIPIX Clinical Development Program
The TRILIPIX clinical program studied 3,458 patients with mixed dyslipidemia in four 12-week controlled studies where patients received TRILIPIX alone, TRILIPIX in combination with one of the three most commonly prescribed statins (atorvastatin, simvastatin or rosuvastatin) or statin alone. The clinical program also included a 52-week, long-term, open-label extension study.
Important Safety Information About TRILIPIX
TRILIPIX should not be taken by people with liver, gallbladder, or severe kidney disease, nursing mothers, or those allergic to any product ingredient. Unexplained muscle pain,

Chris from Cook with Fire says his Pasta on the Border dish started out as a burrito, or enchilada, or perhaps even a fajita, but somewhere along the way ended up with this delicious creation instead. His zesty marinated flank steak strips are sautéed with colorful bell peppers, onion, garlic, enchilada sauce and more, then combined with roasted jalapeños. He piles it all on top of thinly sliced tortilla strips and tops it off with cheese. This is some seriously tasty south of the border comfort food!
Pasta on the Border
Submitted to Foodista by Cook with Fire
4 Large Low-Fat Flour Tortilla
1/2 pound Flank Steak, sliced into thin strips
1 Red Bell Pepper (or any color combination), julienned
1 Onion, julienned
1 cup Unsalted Black Beans, drained
1 1/2 cups Chipotlé Enchilada Sauce
1 cup Pico de Gallo
4 Garlic Cloves, 2 smashed, 2 finely minced
8 tablespoons Chopped Cilantro
Mexican Dried Herb Seasoning
Cholula Seasoning Powder
2 Limes (or lemons), sliced into wedges
4 Jalapeno Peppers (optional)
Marinate strips of flank steak in a drizzle of EVOO, 2 smashed garlic cloves, juice of 1 lime (or lemon), 4 tbs. chopped cilantro and a dash of the seasonings for an hour or two.
If desired, brush jalapenos with a little oil and roast in 400F preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, turning over once halfway through.
In a sauce pan, heat the enchilada sauce until boiling then add the beans. Stir for another couple of minutes and turn off heat.
In a medium-heated skillet, add a little EVOO and sauté the beef strips along with the minced garlic and the julienned onion and bell pepper(s).
Stack the tortillas on top of each other and roll as tight as you can without tearing it. Now, using a very sharp knife, thinly slice the roll from one end to the other creating fettuccine-like strands. Loosen strands and coat with EVOO and a dash of the seasonings.
Spread tortilla strands out on individual serving platters, top each with enchilada/bean mixture, salsa and beef/veggie mixture. Garnish with remaining chopped cilantro, a lime (or lemon) wedge and a roasted jalapeno pepper.
Another optional item you can add is shredded cheese. Before garnishing, top with shredded cheese and pop the plate in the microwave for a minute or until cheese has fully melted.

I was struck by how "out of theme" that ugly GAF logo looks over the Main St photo shop. I guess there have always been compromises made where theme and sponsorship are concerened.
PS: A little Photoshop will get the red out.
What fun pictures! It is interesting to see what the characters looked like back then, a little crazy in my opinion.
Thanks for sharing Oogie!
Seeing the gaf of the 70s is rather sad... They were so big in film back then! Now, they do roofing.
I'm sure gaf (also known as GAF) produced these slides... during the 70s, gaf was in a transition from using Kodachrome on all of their products. Thus, a lot of experimentations on getting good slide film started happening and the slides from this era of gaf was even worse than most slide film.
That was great!
Oogie, first, great shots, and thanks.
Second, I tried doing a color fix on one (using MS DIP Pro), and they didn't look too bad. You might want to give it a try, or if you want, PM me, and I'd be happy to whip through them for you.
Oh wow. Thank you for sharing!

Once again, you have brought wonderful photos from the past, Oogie! Thank you for sharing these greate photos! I actually have four of the old MSEP slides from Gaf but have never seen the caliope/hippo unit in that form before. I also have a 1977 DL guidebook, hosted by GAF before the Polaroid changeover and it gives tips about taking good pictures and Super 8mm movies, lol! Thanks for those great pics!
Thanks for sharing! I like to see pics when people dressed nicely for the parks, like it was a special event... The things people wear nowadays can really turn me off... but that's another thread! Thanks again!
Thanks for sharing your pictures. I love seeing Disneyland the way it was when I was a kid. Great memories!

Great shots again, Oogie. I need to spread some republicans around but I definitely owe you some. I WISH my parents had taken more pictures during this era. All we have is a short Super 8 clip from the same time period.
And by the way, I LOVE the red tint. It makes me very nostalgic as a huge chunk of my famility photos have the same look.
