Women's Sea Dress 2 2
Light, breezy summer dress Granted, I have to periodically tug down the waistline on this dress and in a breeze the skirt may fly ... but I love this dress so much that I ended up buying six of them (yes ... SIX). Wish they came on more colors. It's very comfortable and DH likes how I look in it. I have to wear a culotte-slip under the dress ... fabric is quite thin ... but when I visit my son next month, will be taking several of these in my suitcase. August 3, 2014
Short-waisted, fabric a little flimsy Ordered this dress in 1X. I am 5'8" and typically wear a size 18. The dress is very short-waisted. In addition to making me look 'enceinte', the bodice area barely went below my bust-line. For a woman with a short torso, it may look fine, but not for me. May 21, 2014

The Passover (Pesach) Seder
We Also Recommend
The Passover seder (meaning order) is probably the most celebrated and beloved of Jewish home rituals. Most Jews have cherished memories of past family times spent at a seder. It is believed that the obligation to tell the story of the Exodus was observed by Jews' ancestors ever since the actual Exodus itself. The scriptural command (Exodus 13:8) to tell the story of the exodus to our children is interpreted as a positive commandment (mitzvah).
One of the four names for Passover–and sometimes the aspect most emphasized–is Hag ha-Herut (The Feast of Freedom). Freedom is the primary theme of the seder, with numerous other recurring themes and motifs. The seder permits Jews to worship God through prayer, study, and learning by taking part in what is essentially a lesson of Jewish history, literature, and religion. Participation in the seder lets one symbolically and vicariously relive the Exodus, where past and present merge.
There are some essential elements to the seder that underlie the retelling of the Exodus. The three fundamental patterns of the seder are the family, the individual, and the nation. As a home event involving the full family as well as guests, the seder draws together all age groups. It requires the participation of the old and the young. On the individual level, the seder requires every participant to feel as though he or she personally left Egypt. The national pattern of the seder symbolizes the first step toward the final redemption from the slavery and the formation of the Jewish nation that did not exist as a nation before Exodus from Egypt.
Because every generation has managed to find its own significance in this wonderful teaching tool, there is now a plethora of Haggadot with added stories, songs, games, and pictures, to suit every political, spiritual, and religious point of view. You can now find liberal, mystical, feminist, ecological, children's, and even atheist Haggadot. In order to tell the story, Jews have created an ingenious work of pedagogy. The "script" for this central ritual of Passover is the Haggadah (literally, "telling"). It contains questions and answers, stories, show and tell, song, food as reward and symbol, pathos, and suspense. The creation of this script took place over hundreds of years at the beginning of the Common Era. There is evidence that parts of the seder were in a fixed format by the time of the Mishnah (second to third century CE). Midrashim were added and the current traditional version was fixed soon after.

AUSTIN, Texas -- He's at it again - in Chicago, this time.
Gov. Rick Perry announced Monday a weeklong print and Internet ad buy in Crain's Chicago Business Journal and on chicagobusiness.com claiming that the "Escape route from Illinois to economic freedom leads to Texas."
The $38,450 campaign touts what Perry calls Texas' business-friendly climate and is sponsored by a public-private marketing firm.
In February, the firm financed California radio ads featuring Perry denigrating that state's taxes and regulation.
That campaign preceded a Perry trip to California to recruit jobs, and made national headlines.
Perry said the Illinois ad buy coincides with a special Illinois section going up on a website devoted to recruiting jobs to Texas.
He said he wants to "spur competition between states and recruit jobs and employees to Texas."

McAfee Integrity Control blocks unauthorized applications and change on fixed-function, point-of-service infrastructures, including ATMs, point-of-sale (POS) systems, and kiosks. Combining industry-leading whitelisting and change control technology, Integrity Control prevents out-of-policy changes while still allowing updates from authorized sources. It boosts control over change policies and effectively secures devices, using a centrally-managed and efficient solution.
Comprehensive change policy enforcement — Get continuous change detection capabilities, while proactively preventing unauthorized, out-of-policy change attempts. Integrity Control links protection directly to policy and verifies changes against the source, time window, or approved change ticket. Changes outside of policy are blocked, greatly reducing change-related outages and compliance violations.
Viable security for fixed-function devices — Integrity Control uniquely extends a layer of protection to devices with a fixed CPU or memory, including POS terminals, ATMs, and medical imaging systems that perform critical functions and often store sensitive data. A low-overhead footprint does not impact system performance, and it is equally effective in standalone mode, without network access.
Centralized deployment and management — Get seamless integration with McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator (McAfee ePO) software to ease deployment, management, and reporting. The single McAfee ePO console lowers the cost of ownership by consolidating security and compliance management, eliminating the need to manage data in two separate systems. Streamlined remote deployment via the McAfee ePO platform easily manages and reports on large enterprise rollouts, all from a central location.
An efficient, transparent solution — Integrity Control runs transparently on fixed-function systems, enables the entire point-of-service infrastructure to be monitored without impact, and can be set up quickly. This flexible, affordable, and secure solution dynamically manages whitelists and supports multiple configurations for different business needs and devices.
Ensure that only approved software runs on the point-of-service infrastructure, without imposing additional operational overhead. McAfee Integrity Control easily blocks unauthorized, vulnerable, or malicious applications that can compromise the security of critical systems.
Verify changes against the source, time window, or approved change ticket. Changes attempted outside of policy are blocked, and the attempt is logged and sent as an alert to administrators, reducing outages and compliance violations.
Check files and directories for changes to content, permissions, or both. Integrity Control provides continuous file integrity monitoring, essential for testing and verifying the security of an environment and meeting critical compliance requirements, including PCI DSS. It delivers comprehensive information about every change, including the user and the program used to make the change.
Extend a layer of protection to devices with a fixed CPU or memory, including POS terminals, ATMs, and medical imaging systems, with a solution that does not impact system performance.
Count on continuous information about change events across the point-of-service infrastructure to comply with PCI DSS requirements. Integrity Control details which server or servers originated the change, when it was made, which user made the change, how the change was made, what content inside the file changed, and whether the change was approved.
Eliminate the need for IT administrators to manually maintain lists of approved applications. Instead, IT departments can adopt a flexible approach, relying on a repository of trusted applications that run on endpoints. This prevents execution of all unauthorized software scripts and dynamic link libraries (DLLs), and further defends against memory exploits.
Get seamless integration with McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator (McAfee ePO) software to ease deployment, management, and reporting. The single McAfee ePO console consolidates security and compliance management, lowering TCO.

GRANITEVILLE — Tognum America's entire manufacturing operation and research and development efforts are now centered in Aiken County, after the unveiling of a new $40 million facility on Tuesday, according to company officials,
The new center, located at the Sage Mill Industrial Park, will generate 20 new jobs and is designed to test the quality and reliability of the off-road engines built by the company before they're shipped to customers around the globe.
Tognum America's Vice President of Operations Joerg Klisch described the completion of the center as a significant milestone, particularly after the company just moved most of its operations from Detroit.
"None of these new achievements would have been possible without our strong partnership with the Aiken County community," he said, also noting the company recently upgraded its administrative offices and parking lot at the site.
He added that the area is the perfect fit for the company because it's relatively close to Charleston's harbor, has interstate access and offers a business-friendly environment.
The company's new investment will help to optimize the efficiency of its engines, allowing them to be serviceable in virtually any environment, Klisch said.
"The new building is designed to condition the air so that we can simulate a copper mine in the mountains of Chile where the air is cold and thin or a gold mine located in the dry and hot desert of Nevada," he said.
The company, which is headquartered in Germany, produces off-highway engines in a variety of industries, including mining, commercial marine, rail and industrial.
Gary Mason, a company spokesman, said the new center will also help the company tackle stronger emission standards in the U.S. and around the world.
"Everyday, we are working to help our customers meet increasingly stringent emissions requirements so we anticipate we'll have to keep doing that in the future," Mason said.
S.C. Secretary of Commerce Bobby Hitt applauded the work of the company and the relationships it has developed locally.
"I love to hear people get up and call people in the community by name," Hitt said, referring to the company's officials.
"They know that these are their partners, and they know they can call them up on the phone, ask for help and help will be there."
Will Williams, director of the Aiken-Edgefield Economic Development Partnership, also praised the company, emphasizing its role as a key corporate partner.
"They've continued to grow since they came here in 2010. They're a strong business, a very technically-oriented company," he said.

A day after electronics retailer Best Buy announced they'd be shuttering 50 big box stores as part of a new strategy to cut costs and revamp the way they sell, I gave them a quick ring to find out which stores would actually close.
See, there's one in Danbury, Connecticut, that I like to browse, and I worry it will suffer the same fate as the nearby Borders and the nearby Circuit City did, adding another ugly, weedy cavity to the local mall scene and depriving me of pretty much anything to do while waiting for a movie to start on a Saturday evening in suburbia. (There's only so many times you can walk the aisles at Lowes, and Amazon still isn't nearly as entertaining as flipping through racks of DVDs or books).
I don't really hate Best Buy, and I certainly can't root against them. I actually kind of like the place. It's air conditioned nicely in the summer, it's kind of dark, it's quiet, they have stuff that I like to look at. It's like a library filled with toys.
Some memories are downright pleasant. My late father in law and I bought two flat-screen TVs from Best Buy one afternoon at a location in Northern Vermont. It took about 35 minutes from finding the salesman to putting them in the back my father in law's pickup. No fuss, no muss. Nice folks. The TVs–which he'd slyly stalked through a half-decade of Sunday circulars–worked perfectly when we got them home and still do.
Maybe it's changed since then (three years ago), but can't say I've personally ever had a bad experience there. Given all the hate I see online towards this company, I actually feel that somehow I've missed out on some horrific retail right of passage, or maybe my expectations for shopping are just too low.
But anyway, this is clearly a company under siege. You call the special press number, you don't get a call back. Instead, you get an email shot to you within 20 minutes with exactly what you're looking for. Amid an acre of routine PR blather there's this:
On Thursday, March 29, we notified employees at five stores in the Twin Cities area, and one store in the San Antonio area, that their stores will close later this year as Connected Store remodels are completed in their markets.
So what about all the other stores? No word yet:
We will announce details about additional, specific store locations and timing for closings as they are finalized.
So, fingers crossed, Danbury and Vermont. At least one person is rooting for you.

I don't see any way he gets suspended for this. Now, is he guilty? Sure, he's guilty as can be, but pretty much everyone knew that last year. The only reason he got off was because of some "chain of command" issue.
Eh...I don't really see the Brewers being much of a threat with that starting staff anyway.
No matter how good the rest of Ryan Braun career will be (which should be really damn good if he stays healthy).
These allegations will forever put an asterisk mark by his name, and should probably never be considered for the hall of fame (if he puts up the numbers to do so) for his cheating.

cincinnati chili (02-07-2013)
Out of curiosity what would keep one of these perfomance enhancing drug companies from extorting top players? I'm not saying Braun and others linked to such entities aren't guilty or shouldn't be implicated, but that thought crossed my mind.
Ryan Braun, Yasmani Grandal, The U connection, ARod...I'm sorry, but when does Yonder Alonso's name show up?
When guys like Armstrong, ARod, Braun, etc. put themselves out there and agressively deny using, it really makes it pleasurable to watch them go down in flames.
Sorry if that is offensive to anyone but it's just human nature for some of us to think that way.
Can you imagine facing an 8,9,10 year contract knowing you have to cheat the whole time to live up to what you've already produced? If teams aren't putting PED clauses in these contracts they're CRAZY.
Dan Patrick used the words "Good person" in relation to using PEDs in baseball. Context being the only player that would surprise him is Jeter b/c he seems to begood person and does everything the "right" way.
I'm a huge DP fan, but this is a total joke. These cats don't owe the media and/or the fans anything in regards to PEDs. To measure their "goodness" with that metric is way out of bounds.
They are elite athletes and got where they are by exploiting every advantage they could find. PEDs enhance that advantage. Getting the edge any way possible will never be ruled out of the athlete's mindset.
bigredmechanism (02-06-2013)
If this is all they got on Braun, I don't know where the new smoking gun is. Pretty much just confirms that he got off last time, but still no further new evidence. I dislike Braun as much as anyone, just don't see where he is now in trouble.

"Apple's policy feels like it was originally designed to stop dishonest developers... "
Oh my, perhaps that's the way it feels to a naive fan. In reality, it would be bruttaly simple to screen that during the approval process.
Let's be honest for a second, it was designed to maximize profit, to exact a tax in every transaction to finance Apple's ecosystem. Nothing wrong with that, the rules were clear and developers chose to participate, but please, spare me the lame "stop dishonest developers" excuse.

Casual Vacancy by Rowling. I'm not too far in but so far I'm pretty bored. Sad.
pets and I are currently doing a reread of King's books in order of publication. Novels only. We both finished Carrie and Salem's Lot, so it's on to The Shining!
I'm still reading the letter exchange between Julia Child and Avis DeVoto. Julia's moved to Germany, the Childs and DeVotos have met in person, and they're still obsessing about knives. :-)
A little book called Mermaids by Patty Dann. It's a quick read, and such a cute book. I do not even know how many times I've read it.
I enjoy the movie as well.
Just finished up Mermaids, now I'm in the mood to read Harry Potter. Will be reading Order of the Phoenix, my favorite of the series. Ahh, Dolores Umbridge! How I love to hate her!

Barcelona - PanathinaikosI would be very surprised if Barcelona at home fail to beat Panathinaikos at the Camp Nou.Barcelona to win with 0-1 handicap.
Benfica - H. Tel AvivBoth teams have been involed in games with a fair bunch of goals recently and I believe this is the safest pick from this game.More than 2.5 goals.
Bremen - TottenhamBremen are strong and managed a goalless game away to Bayern Munich on Saturday. I believe this will be a close on with many goals.More than 2.5 goals.
Bursaspor - ValenciaBursaspor have had a great start to the season, but Valencia have been pritty decent as well. Should be close.Less than 2.5 goals.
FC Copenhagen - KazanFC Copenhagen are strong at home, but they face one of the best Russian sides in this one, but I believe the Danes could surprise in this one.More than 2.5 goals.
Lyon - SchalkeLyon have failed to impress me in Ligue 1 so far this season, but they are a strong team at home and Schalke have been terrible in the Bundesliga.Lyon to win.
Manchester United - RangersManchester United should and I believe will have no problems beating Scottish giants Rangers in this one at home at Old Trafford.Manchester United to win and More than 2.5 goals.
Twente - InterTwente are strong and have had a good start to the season, but Inter Milan should be able to win this game. I believe many goals is the best pick in this one.More than 2.5 goals.
AC Milan - AuxerreAC Milan have a team full of big name forwards, but they face a decent team in this one. But the Rossoneri should realy win this one.AC Milan to win.

Marseille - Sp. MoscowSpartak Moscow are strong, but they lost 3-0 here when they face Marseille in the Uefa cup in 2008. Should be closer, but Marseille should be favorites.More than 2.5 goals.
Real Madrid - AjaxReal Madrid boss Jose Mourinho have been good in the Champions League with both Porto and Inter Milan and he should be able to win this game with Real.Real Madrid to win.
Shakhtar - PartizanShakhtar are a strong team, but they face another strong Eastern European side in this one. I believe it could be close, but the hosts should win.Shakhtar to win.
Zilina - ChelseaOk. Do not underestimate any of the teams in the Champions League. But if Chelsea do not manage to win this one, they have nothing to do in the Champions League!Chelsea to win wtih 1-0 handicap.
Barcelona vs Panathinaikos
Head-to-head record - Played: 4. Wins: Barcelona 2, Panathinaikos 1, draws 1
"We normally play faster, and we couldn't get the ball circulating," Barcelona left back Eric Abidal said. "But it'll be a different game on Tuesday against Panathinaikos. We have to forget this one as quickly as possible."
Panathinaikos have lost only one of their last six CL games, winning three of them.

Results 1 to 10 of 10
Style: Cambo/jujutsu/judo2
Principles, Choices, and Models: A SAMBO Clinic
Principles, Choices, and Models: A SAMBO Clinic
A technical skills and coaching clinic presented by SEA-Town CAMBO and the American SAMBO Association
Aaron Fields
Feb 9th 2014 from 10am-3 pm (session #1: 10am-12 session #2: 1-3pm)
Seattle Jujutsu and CAMBO club 8074 Lake City WAY Seattle WA.
Contact: 206-713-9745 www.seattle-jujutsu.org
$50 for both sessions $35 for just one.
One of the major aspects that sets SAMBO apart from many other grappling sports is the methodology in which it is practiced. At the core, this aspect is based around the cultural perspective from which it grew, and of equal importance, how the sport is coached.
What is missing in most gyms arent the skills themselves. What is often missing is the methodology and understanding of learning and coaching itself.
The first half of the clinic will be focused on coaching and learning strategies, focused on skill acquisition for performance based high stress environments. This section is geared for coaches, but will also serve the athlete in helping to fine tune their skill acquisition models.
Skills which are going to be performed under pressure have a specific drill model that leads to success. This section of the clinic will be tying in examples of how to, in addition to the whys of coaching. This section is designed to make coaches better, practices focused in scope, and a clear understanding of how to build technical skills.
The second part of the clinic will be technically focused and will touch on several themes found frequently in CAMBO. Though techniques will be being taught, they will instead be the vehicle for which the coaching methods are being framed. This section will reinforce the principles laid out in the first session of the seminar. It will also show several go-to drills.
After this clinic participants wont simply go home with a handful of new techniques. They should go home with an understanding of how to learn and a handful of drill and strategies which they will be able to apply to their own practice. (In addition to a few nice techniques to throw into their toolbox.)
Aaron Fields is the head coach of the Seattle Jujutsu and SAMBO Club. He stepped on the mat for the first time in 1990 and has extensive experience in judo, ju jutsu, and Russian SAMBO. The gym first opened in 1998, after Aarons return from living and practicing in the Eastern Block. His first experience with professional coaching came at the hands of the national coaches he was practicing with.
Aaron makes his living as a Seattle Firefighter. He also has been teaching a specialty for the fire service on a national level since 2007. Besides the technical skills taught, his program is also known for the how it is taught.
I attended a seminar taught by the esteemed Mr. Fields a few years ago. I still draw on some of the principles he taught me that day. "Step into the bucket" really helped some of my throws. He helps you understand the underlying principles of the techniques he demonstrates. This approach truly deepens your grasp of the moves he illustrates.
I like the "principle approach" so much that I've tried to incorporate it into my own teaching. I would recommend that you not miss this chance to learn from a gifted and funny instructor if you get the chance.

- The employment effects of job creation schemes in Germany : a microeconometric evaluation (2005)
- In this paper we evaluate the employment effects of job creation schemes on the participating individuals in Germany. Job creation schemes are a major element of active labour market policy in Germany and are targeted at long-term unemployed and other hard-to-place individuals. Access to very informative administrative data of the Federal Employment Agency justifies the application of a matching estimator and allows to account for individual (group-specific) and regional effect heterogeneity. We extend previous studies in four directions. First, we are able to evaluate the effects on regular (unsubsidised) employment. Second, we observe the outcome of participants and non-participants for nearly three years after programme start and can therefore analyse mid- and long-term effects. Third, we test the sensitivity of the results with respect to various decisions which have to be made during implementation of the matching estimator, e.g. choosing the matching algorithm or estimating the propensity score. Finally, we check if a possible occurrence of 'unobserved heterogeneity' distorts our interpretation. The overall results are rather discouraging, since the employment effects are negative or insignificant for most of the analysed groups. One notable exception are long-term unemployed individuals who benefit from participation. Hence, one policy implication is to address programmes to this problem group more tightly. JEL Classification: J68, H43, C13
- The microeconometric estimation of treatment effects : an overview (2005)
- Vocational training programmes have been the most important active labour market policy instrument in Germany in the last years. However, the still unsatisfying situation of the labour market has raised doubt on the efficiency of these programmes. In this paper, we analyse the effects of the participation in vocational training programmes on the duration of unemployment in Eastern Germany. Based on administrative data for the time between the October 1999 and December 2002 of the Federal Employment Administration, we apply a bivariate mixed proportional hazards model. By doing so, we are able to use the information of the timing of treatment as well as observable and unobservable influences to identify the treatment effects. The results show that a participation in vocational training prolongates the unemployment duration in Eastern Germany. Furthermore, the results suggest that locking-in effects are a serious problem of vocational training programmes. JEL Classification: J64, J24, I28, J68
- Estimating the effects of wage subsidies on the labour demand in West-Germany using the IAB establishment panel (2002)
- Nobody knows ... : how do different evaluation estimators perform in a simulated labour market experiment? (2001)
- Evaluation of active labour market policy : methodological concepts and empirical estimates (2000)
- Persistently high unemployment, tight government budgets and the growing scepticism regarding the effects of active labour market policies (ALMP) are the basis for a growing interest in evaluating these measures. This paper intends to explain the need for evaluation on the micro- and macroeconomic level, introduce the fundamental evaluation problem and solutions to it, give an overview of the newer developments in evaluation literature and finally take a look on empirical estimations of ALMP effects.

Ferrari looking to expand partnership with Apple, announces car that comes with iPad minis
Ferrari said today that it is in talks with Apple to expanding their in-car entertainment partnership, also unveiling a new, iPad mini-equipped car. The car, called "LaFerrari", is a 1 million euro hybrid four-seat vehicle with iPad minis in the passenger seats. LaFerrari was announced at the Geneva motor show. Bloomberg reports:
Ferrari, which today unveiled the 1 million euro hybrid model "LaFerrari," is in talks with Apple about broadening a partnership on in-car entertainment, Di Montezemolo said today at the Geneva motor show. The new four-seater Ferrari model includes mini i-Pads on the passenger seats.
Eddy Cue, Apple's Senior Vice President of Internet Software and Services, joined Ferrari's board in November. There were also reports last spring of a meeting between Apple CEO Tim Cook and Ferrari Chairman Luca Cordero Di Montezemolo. Cue tweeted about the car's unveiling today, calling LaFerrari "stunning". He's not wrong about that.

What passenger seats?
And even if there were, who the hell is jaded enough to need to have access to an iPad while riding in a 2800 pound, 963 HP, 217 mph, $1.3 Million supercar?
Sounds like angels roaring.
Thats a really REALLY expensive iPad Mini! Dang! ....better get AppleCare!
Sillyness. If I could afford that car I could certainly afford a Mini...heck...I could afford the iPad 4 AND the mini....they need a reality check.

- Interaction of magnetite-based receptors in the beak with the visual system underlying "fixed direction" responses in birds (2010)
- Background: European robins, Erithacus rubecula, show two types of directional responses to the magnetic field: (1) compass orientation that is based on radical pair processes and lateralized in favor of the right eye and (2) so-called 'fixed direction' responses that originate in the magnetite-based receptors in the upper beak. Both responses are light-dependent. Lateralization of the 'fixed direction' responses would suggest an interaction between the two magnetoreception systems. Results: Robins were tested with either the right or the left eye covered or with both eyes uncovered for their orientation under different light conditions. With 502 nm turquoise light, the birds showed normal compass orientation, whereas they displayed an easterly 'fixed direction' response under a combination of 502 nm turquoise with 590 nm yellow light. Monocularly right-eyed birds with their left eye covered were oriented just as they were binocularly as controls: under turquoise in their northerly migratory direction, under turquoise-and-yellow towards east. The response of monocularly left-eyed birds differed: under turquoise light, they were disoriented, reflecting a lateralization of the magnetic compass system in favor of the right eye, whereas they continued to head eastward under turquoise-and-yellow light. Conclusion: 'Fixed direction' responses are not lateralized. Hence the interactions between the magnetite-receptors in the beak and the visual system do not seem to involve the magnetoreception system based on radical pair processes, but rather other, non-lateralized components of the visual system.
- Development of lateralization of the magnetic compass in a migratory bird (2012)
- The magnetic compass of a migratory bird, the European robin (Erithacus rubecula), was shown to be lateralized in favour of the right eye/left brain hemisphere. However, this seems to be a property of the avian magnetic compass that is not present from the beginning, but develops only as the birds grow older. During first migration in autumn, juvenile robins can orient by their magnetic compass with their right as well as with their left eye. In the following spring, however, the magnetic compass is already lateralized, but this lateralization is still flexible: it could be removed by covering the right eye for 6 h. During the following autumn migration, the lateralization becomes more strongly fixed, with a 6 h occlusion of the right eye no longer having an effect. This change from a bilateral to a lateralized magnetic compass appears to be a maturation process, the first such case known so far in birds. Because both eyes mediate identical information about the geomagnetic field, brain asymmetry for the magnetic compass could increase efficiency by setting the other hemisphere free for other processes.

By GLH from USA on 2010-08-30 16:14:55Things I liked:the targets are easy to put in and hang. its very sturdy too.
Things I would have changed:make the paper targets easier to find.
What others should know:the metal targets are easy to reuse. i simply bought some orange florescent spray paint (don't use primer or it wot chip very well when shot) and spray them until i cant see the bare metal anymore.

By Kevin from USA on 2012-08-20 11:01:45Things I liked:Works o.k if you are shooting the iron targets. But @ 25 yards using air arms 8.44 gr. roundnose pellets, shooting a beeman x2. On paper targets this trap allready has been shot thru and I think it is supposed to be rated to withstand that kind of hits. That is why I bought this trap.
Things I would have changed:Double the gauge thickness of the rear of the trap to be able to withstand hits from most springers (1000 fps)at least
What others should know:If you purchase this trap only shoot the iron targets supplied and hope you hit them every time or know someone that is a welder, to reinforce the back of this trap

Graduates celebrate their achievements at CCCC
More than 250 people celebrated their long-awaited graduation Wednesday night during Central Carolina Community College's Adult High School and GED commencement ceremony.
Starting at 7 p.m. at the Dennis A. Wicker Civic Center, graduates from CCCC's branches in Lee, Chatham and Harnett counties celebrated their achievements as friends, family members and professors cheered them on.
None of those who spoke during the ceremonies, whether they were counselors, administrators or students, shied away from the fact that many of the people in caps and gowns had to overcome significant obstacles in the personal lives and education before reaching this stage. But the fact that they were graduating, some said, was proof that they have what it takes to make Wednesday's ceremony a mere stage of a journey, not the finish line.
"You have made a positive move in the right direction," CCCC President Bud Marchant told the graduates. "My concern, my only wish for you, is that you continue your education. Continue in the right direction."
Tia Mitchell, a 16-year-old who won the college's Lee County Trustees Scholarship, said she has been to 17 different schools in her life and never found any success in the traditional high school setting most of her peers are still enrolled in, blaming her formerly negative attitude and the instability surrounding her educational career.
"It seems that I have been on a roller coaster ride for most of my life," said the student who just became qualified to be a certified nursing assistant. "... I have big dreams that I never thought to pursue, but Central Carolina has made that possible for me."
Julie Pospesel, who graduated from the Harnett County campus, said she promised herself when she dropped out of high school at age 17 to have her first baby that she would finish her education some day. Six kids and one grandkid later, she was standing on stage not only graduating, but speaking to her fellow graduates.
"There were times of tears when I feared that I couldn't do it," she said, adding that now that she finally has a GED, more career options have opened up and she's starting on a new path toward becoming a paralegal: "Yes, I finally know what I want to be when I grow up."
And Kadejah Shardee Miles, from Chatham County, said she moved to Siler City from Carrboro with no prospects and no high school diploma, saying her teachers had never been able to help or inspire her. But at CCCC, she said, she found support and now wants to become a pharmacist and advised her fellow students, by borrowing some words from Steve Jobs, to stay hungry in their pursuit of success.
"Our obstacles haven't stopped us yet," she said.

Glass City Flight offers training school at airportWritten by Staff Reports | | email@example.com
By Tom Konecny, Toledo Free Press Staff Writer
Toledo now has a flight training school for the first time in 20 years with the opening of Glass City Flight at Toledo Express Airport. Although training can be obtained through area flying clubs and Bowling Green State University's aviation program, the next closest structured training school of its kind is in Wauseon.
"I know when I trained I didn't want to go an hour to fly," said Scott Frost, owner and general manager. "Toledo really only has flight clubs, and BGSU has the school. I did it through a flying club, but it wasn't as structured as a flying school can and should be. Most people have the interest in learning to fly, and they don't want to go back to the university."
The most noticeable benefit of training at Toledo Express is its size, offering the use of its control tower, crossing runways and a lot more aircraft activity than smaller airports, Frost said. Flexibility is another key factor, where teaching can be offered on a variety of days and times, and on a pay as you go basis.
"Our students are career-based individuals that want flexibility in their schedule," Frost said. "We all remember the days of college, those are set days and times."
Frost estimates the total cost of schooling is around $7,500 and can last three to 12 months, which is a big difference when it comes to the time and cost of a four-year college education. As such, Frost expects to draw clientele from the regular working business world and high school students who can't afford or don't want the full college experience.
Glass City Flight's certified flight instructor Justin Harnden said a career in aviation is a wise move.
"There's a shortage of pilots," Harnden said. "Aviation is going to be on the rise."
Both Frost and Harnden note that aviation is strong in the area. Toledo has the benefit of a decent-sized airport, home of the Ohio Air National Guard's 180th Fighter Wing, and BGSU's aviation program is widely recognized as one of the finest in the state
For those interested in learning to fly, there's no quick fix or instant jump to larger planes; it all starts with single engine, four-seat planes like the Beechcraft Sundowner offered through Glass City Flight.
"Everybody has to start somewhere," Harnden said. "And this is the beginning of the journey. No matter what, you still have start in a basic training flight program.
Glass City Flight offers an introduction flight for $100, and Frost has already sold some packages for upcoming Father's Day gifts. The introduction presents a sample of what flying is like, including meeting with an instructor who will explain the basic principles of flight and controls, as well as a 30-45 minute excursion in the air.
Once someone is committed to the program, there are three major milestones to achieve while training: First, flying "solo" with a certified flight instructor; second, taking a written Federal Aviation Administration exam; and third, taking a final check ride to get the license.
"Basically, we teach the rules and regulations of the air," Frost said
In general, flying single engine planes can reduce typical travel time by about half, but the fuel cost is roughly double that of a car. Still, when put in perspective, learning to fly offers a skill that can become a lifelong hobby or even a career.
"Flying a general aviation aircraft is like driving your own car," Frost said. "Flying commercial is like boarding a Greyhound bus with wings."

With the exception of Bahrain, where anti-government protests were violently suppressed by the ruling royal family with military support from Saudi Arabia, the kingdoms and sheikhdoms of the Arabian Gulf – in America we refer to it as the Persian Gulf, but that terminology does not sit well with the Arabs – have appeared largely immune from the struggles of the Arab Spring. There have been no street demonstrations, no tear gas, no bullets, rubber or live.
I have just returned from a three-week stay in the Middle East. A few days in Doha, the Qatari capital, to attend the World Petroleum Congress and then the rest of the time in Kuwait, where I am part of a team doing a feasibility study for a technology park. It was my first-ever visit to Qatar and my first to Kuwait since 1986. Doha, flush with money from natural gas, a small low-slung, dun-colored city 20 years ago, now resembles a sci-fi movie set, all futuristic towers glowing with neon, surrounded by the most barren of landscapes. Kuwait City has expanded enormously, and sprawls almost from the Saudi border in the South to the Iraqi frontier in the north. Areas that were empty desert 25 years ago are now studded with new suburbs filled with enormous mansions and shopping malls. Young Kuwaitis zoom around town in Hummers, Range Rovers, and Maseratis or on Japanese super-bikes, stopping to eat at any of a mind-boggling array of Western restaurant chains. Applebee's, Chili's, Taco Bell, Burger King, McDonald's, Pizza Hut, TGI Friday's, they are all there. The 1991 Iraqi invasion seems impossibly distant. [click to continue…]

text: China Glaze Winter Holly Nail Lacquer ($7.50 for 0.50 fl. oz.) is described as a "gold-flecked dazzling green glitter." It's a mix of fine gold and emerald green glitter suspended in a clear base. When applied, there appears to be a few flecks of other colors as well, but it is predominantly gold and green glitter particles. I couldn't think of a dupe (but we're definitely building up the glitter polish gallery!). Even when it's layered over black, it's quite different compared to last year's Glittering Garland. It seems simple at first, but depending on the breadth of your glitter polish stash, comes across as more complex when applied.

Give purchasing power to your customers with Retail POS
Deliver the "wow" with Intel® technology
Personalizing the point of sale
Ringing up sales is just the beginning for the modern point-of-sale (POS) device. This retail touchpoint can also bring marketing, pricing, inventory control, customer service, and loyalty program support to the sales transaction, elevating shopper engagement and optimizing sales opportunities where it matters most. All these features add up to the highly customized and personal shopping experiences that customers love and savvy retailers deliver.
Real-world examples:
Intelligent sales assistant hybrid tablet PC solution
Intelligent PCI compliance solution to protect payment card data
New world of point-of-sale
Mobile POS creates a fluid retail environment
The point-of-sale is now mobile. No longer tethered to the cash-wrap stand, POS can be anywhere that shoppers are ready to buy, in any location throughout the store. Using tablets and other devices, sales associates can meet the shopper at their point of need, answering questions, checking inventory, ordering merchandise, looking up product information, and processing a sales transaction. Customers can even use their own mobile devices as POS solutions. Check out the Thinkpad Tablet 2* mPOS solution.
Online convenience meets physical engagement
Networked POS combines the convenience of the online shopping experience with the immediate gratification of in-store purchasing. These systems make it easy to locate an item, make sure it's right, complete the transaction, and take it home the same day. If a desired item is not in stock at that location, that same POS solution can be used to track it to a different store, place the order, and have it shipped directly to the consumer. Talk about convenience!
POS is your omni-channel gateway
POS systems connect all the threads of your company's omni-channel experience, where shoppers enjoy a consistent and seamless engagement regardless of the device or channel in use. When POS connects to the Web, social media, and mobile devices, it becomes an important omni-channel conduit and an engaging access point to a wealth of information—for consumers and retailers alike.
Manage your systems and marketing content easily
Networked POS systems are not only critical to the omni-channel, they allow for a more personalized engagement with shoppers. Consider:
- Remote management. Connecting networks with Intel® Active Management Technology (Intel® AMT) allows retail administrators to manage all systems at once, reduce energy consumption, and take advantage of security and maintenance options such as system diagnosis.
- Reduced energy and maintenance costs. Because systems can be managed remotely, retailers can turn off all POS systems overnight to increase energy savings. It also reduces maintenance truck rolls, lowering operational expenses for retailers.
- Delivery of digital content to every screen. Optimizing the customer experience is the focus of Intel® Retail Client Manager (Intel® RCM), an intelligent software solution that enables you to deliver digital content to every screen—including the marketing messages displayed on your POS systems—with greater impact, when and where it matters most. Reach specific audiences in a timely manner, remotely manage your messages in near real time, and launch customized content dynamically.
- Targeting and personalization. Similar to web-based shopping, point-of-sale systems connected to a network can provide customer reviews, identify returning shoppers, and record shopping histories. Going one step further, Intel® Audience Impression Metrics Suite (Intel® AIM Suite) gives retailers the power to anonymously identify the characteristics of each passing shopper and dynamically adapt marketing messages accordingly.
- Security. Using a combination of hardware authentication and end-to-end encryption, Intel® Data Protection Technology for Transactions is designed to secure both credit and debit—and personal data—from the moment a transaction is initiated all the way through the storage of the encrypted information on retailer and bank server networks. With Intel Data Protection Technology for Transactions, consumer data is well-protected, malware attacks are more likely to be prevented, and retailers are set up with a flexible and future-proof solution that simplifies end-point authentication, reduces security worries, and increases POS choice.

The Pike County Commissioners this week have awarded Geo-Tech Polymers, of Waverly, a $460,000 loan through their 2012 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Economic Development Program. The loan is expected to assist the company offset the cost and installation of equipment in it's Waverly facility.
"We are excited to provide some of the financing for the Geo-Tech expansion to Waverly and look forward to the new jobs. WAI's commitment to investing and creating jobs in Southern Ohio makes it easy to support this project," said Chris Ervin, Pike County Economic Development Director.
On the Geo-Tech Polymers website (www.geo-tech.com), the company describes itself as "an environmentally friendly company specializing in recycling coated plastics used in consumer and automotive applications. Geo-Tech has developed the essential process to remove coatings (paints and metals) and reclaim valuable plastic substrate materials without using chemicals or solvents that can degrade properties and diminish surface appearance."
Geo-Tech Polymers was acquired by Piketon based Wastern Advantage, Inc. (WAI). WAI was recently ranked by Inc. Magazine as one of the "100 fastest growing private small business companies in the nation."
In addition to the loan, the company has also received a $50,000 grant from the Fluor-B&W Opportunity Fund, a $10,000 grant from the Southern Ohio Agricultural and Community Development Foundation, a $1.2 million loan through the Jobs Ohio program, and a $50,902 Job Creation Tax Credit. The balance of the project is being financed locally by Ohio Valley Bank.
It's expected by Geo-Tech officials the companies expansion efforts will result in the creation of 50 jobs. The company anticipates posting positions before the end of the year.
