Looking for small business grant to get off of Social Security.
by NavyMom1959, Window Shopper
- Created: June 21, 2010, 6:31 am
To whom it may concern,
I am a disabled, 50 year old woman, looking for a small business grant.
I have found a candy route that I feel I am able to handle but need the start-up funds.
I feel that if I can get the capital to start this business I may be able to get off of Social Security, or at least supplement my income.
If you have any information that may assist in my search, it would be greatly appreciated.

You might check with your state department of vocational rehabilitation and see what they offer. They offer training to change careers, and they may have options to help you.
ChristineL | Former Moderator | 6/22/2010 - 8:23 am
Hi Gwendolyn, It will be unlikely for you to find a grant. Grants from the federal government are only available to non-commercial organizations, such as non-profits and educational institutions in areas such as, medicine, education, scientific research and technology development. Try the Loans and Grants tool to see what other options your business would be eligible for. Does anyone else have suggestions?
NavyMom1959 | Window Shopper | 6/22/2010 - 8:23 am
To whom it may concern, I am a 50 year old disabled woman, looking for a small business grant. I have found a small candy route that I feel I would be able to handle if I could only find the start-up capital. I truly wish to get off of Social Security and become self sufficient. Any information regarding this matter will be greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Gwendolyn M.
phanio | Contributor | 6/21/2010 - 9:24 am
To be honest, forget about grants - they just don't work that way regardless of what someone is trying to sell you. There are many ways to get start up funding - but grants are not one of them for the business you get. Your best bet would be to ask your friends and family. Or, look into micro loans or peer-to-peer loans.

1 year after factory collapse, Bangladeshis suffer
Savar, Bangladesh • One year after the Rana Plaza garment factory collapsed in a pile of concrete slabs and twisted metal, Bangladeshi seamstress Shefali says she would rather starve to death than return to factory work.
Like many survivors of the worst disaster the garment industry has ever seen, 18-year-old Shefali, who goes by one name, says she suffers from depression and has flashbacks of the catastrophe that killed more than 1,100 people. She was injured in the collapse that happened a year ago Thursday and has lingering back pain.
And despite efforts by Western brands to improve safety at the Bangladeshi factories that produce their clothes, Shefali fears nothing good will trickle down the poorest of the poor. The country has one of the lowest minimum wages in the world — about $66 a month — while churning out goods for some of the world's leading retailers.
"We die, we suffer, nobody takes care of us," Shefali said earlier this month as she toured the site of the collapse, now a barren, fenced-off expanse. She hasn't started working again and stays at home with her parents.
"I had dreams of getting married, having my own family," she said. "But now everything looks impossible."
There have been some significant developments. The owner of the illegally constructed Rana Plaza building is behind bars, pending an investigation, but there has been no word on when he will be put on trial. The owners of the five factories operating inside the building also have been detained.
Authorities have appointed more factory inspectors, plan to appoint more, and say they aim to ensure that no new factories are built without following proper safety regulations.
But problems remain. According to Human Rights Watch, the international companies that sourced garments from five factories operating in the Rana Plaza building are not contributing enough to the trust fund set up to support survivors and the families of those who died.
"One year after Rana Plaza collapsed, far too many victims and their families are at serious risk of destitution," said Phil Robertson, deputy Asia director at the organization. "International garment brands should be helping the injured and the dependents of dead workers who manufactured their clothes."
The target for the fund, chaired by the International Labor Organization, is $40 million, but only $15 million has been raised so far, HRW said. Retailers Bonmarche, El Corte Ingles, Loblaw and Primark have all pledged money.
Mojtaba Kazazi, a former U.N. official who heads a committee to execute the fund, said they have started disbursing 50,000 takas ($640) as initial payments to the victims' families.
The very structure of Bangladesh's garment industry is also viewed as problematic.
According to a recent study by New York University's Stern School of Business, an "essential feature" of the sector involves factories subcontracting work to other workshops that have even worse conditions.
"In the absence of regulation by the government of Bangladesh, the prevalence of indirect sourcing has resulted in a supply chain driven by the pursuit of lowest nominal costs," said Sarah Labowitz, co-director of the NYU Stern Center for Business and Human Rights and co-author of the report. "That means that factories receiving subcontracts are operating on razor-thin margins that leave concerns about safety and workers' rights perpetually unaddressed."
Many garment workers are skeptical that there will be any lasting change.
When the collapse occurred on April 24, 2013, thousands of Bangladeshis were toiling inside the Rana Plaza in Savar, the center of the country's $20 billion garment industry.
A violent jolt shook the floors around 9 a.m. Then the eight-story building gave a deafening groan, the pillars gave way and the entire structure went down in a heap with terrifying speed.
Investigators say a host of factors contributed to its collapse: It was overloaded with machines and generators, constructed on swampy land, and the owner added floors in violation of the original building plan.

Hi, everyone,
I just wanted to answer your questions about the shuttle service for the day you're planning on getting together: there will be shuttle service starting at 12 noon on 9/9/09 and going back and forth from the Marriot to the Fine Arts Center all day and evening. This will continue through the showing of Local Color, with the last pickup from the Fine Arts Center happening at 11 pm.
Hope this helps!
Thanks for the shuttle info Allison-
Is everybody bringing artwork samples to look at/discuss?One of my supply lists said to bring some of your art.
I just noticed from the Information sheet distributed today for WWTM that Cafe 36 is not open on Wednesday evening. Mea Culpa, it used to be, but time marches on.
For those of you who would like to join us for drinks and dinner before the film the new location could be Phantom Canyon , which is close to the Arts Center or one of the Marriott Restaurants. Dealers Choice. Can we hear from you as to which place you prefer?
You're in CO Springs aren't you? I think everybody else is coming in from out of town and staying @ the Marriott.Why don't we all meet in the lobby @ a given time and figure out where we're going from there.
Sounds good to me Pete. I have and Jacq, Phillip's cell phone and e-mail numbers. If we don't hear from them on the forum re the change in venue, I'll give them a call.
I don't have a contact number for Nancy Yu. If she doesn't check in through the forum I'll leave a message for her at the Marriott. I think that covers everyone who expressed an interest in doing this. See you in the lobby of the Marriott at 5:30. I have blondish grey hair and am about 5'7".Cynthia
Lobby at 7!
Phillip and Brenda
Oops-5-5:30/ I must be excited!
Great see you all @ 5:30, Marriott Lobby. I'll be the grey haired, 6'1", overweight, tired looking father of 3. :-)

Amex Options Reviewing Large Number of Erroneous Trades
Aug. 20 (Bloomberg) -- The NYSE Amex Options exchange is reviewing "a large number" of erroneous transactions from the start of trading today, the company said in a statement.
Trades in tickers beginning with letters H through L in the first 17 minutes are being examined, the NYSE Euronext unit said. Amex earlier reported "systems issues" and asked that orders from the platform be removed from marketwide price quotes, a system known as the national best bid and offer. Options venues run by Nasdaq OMX Group Inc., Bats Global Markets Inc. and CBOE Holdings Inc. routed orders away the exchange. Amex said systems were back to normal by 9:49 a.m. in New York.
"NYSE Amex Options is reviewing a large number of erroneous executions that took place this morning," the exchange said in a note to traders. "As permitted by the rules, we anticipate that most of the impacted trades will be busted."
CBOE, the largest options exchange, said it is reviewing all trades that occurred between 9:30 and 9:41 a.m. today. Nasdaq is reviewing options transactions from 9:30 to 9:47 a.m., according to its website.
NYSE Euronext briefly halted trading yesterday in about 40 exchange-traded funds and notes when the securities were added to a program aimed at curbing sudden price swings. They were set off during implementation of the protocol known as limit up/limit down that pauses securities when bid-ask spreads become too wide, NYSE Euronext said.

Dedupe Services wont start, BackupExec Appliance
I need some assistance and I guess because of something internal at Symantec today I am unable to create a technical support case, so anyone who can assist me, I would be very thankful.
We have a Backup Exec Appliance installed at a customer site, and everything for the most part has been working just fine. Last night the appliance was rebooted and upon startup we lost access to our Deduplication storage.
Looking at it further, I can see that the following services are stopped, and I cannot get them to start; no amount on stopping services or restarting services or even rebooting resolves this:
----Backup Exec PureDisk Filesystem Service
----PostgreSQL Server 8.3
----Backup Exec Deduplication Manager
----Backup Exec Deduplication Engine
Previous reboots for patch installation via the Appliance have not caused this to occur.:

If you decide not to choose between these to, or you haven't made a decision while you already have to say the word, you say 'Chillax'.
It could also mean having a good time with your friends.

Formula 1 Blog – BBC Top Gear
Michael Schumacher has backed up the claims of his Mercedes paymasters by admitting that, while things have not gone to plan so far, he has no intention of quitting Formula 1.
Bernie Ecclestone said action is still needed to ensure F1 remains entertaining – and has warned that the sport got 'lucky' in Malaysia and Australia following rain.
Ferrari's Fernando Alonso said he is not concerned about Red Bull and that he is 'more or less confident' the Scuderia will have the best car in the next few races.
Luckless in both Bahrain and Australia, Adrian Sutil was due a change of fortunes in this weekend's Malaysian Grand Prix – but the young German very much made his own luck in Sepang as he impressively kept a faster Lewis Hamilton at bay throughout the closing stages to clinch an excellent and well-deserved fifth place.
Sebastian Vettel, Mark Webber and Red Bull have kick-started F1 2010 firmly into life with a dominant performance in the Malaysian GP in Sepang – with the fastest car in the field reliably surviving the longest race on the calendar and finally propelling its drivers to the top two steps on the podium as the […]
Sebastian Vettel took victory in the Malaysian Grand Prix on Sunday ahead of team-mate Mark Webber as Red Bull finally realised the potential they had shown in the opening two races.
Lewis Hamilton has echoed team-mate and F1 World Championship-winning successor Jenson Button in stressing the need for McLaren-Mercedes to improve its qualifying performance if it is to continue its victorious Albert Park form into the coming races in 2010 and successfully challenge for the crown.
Lotus showed off its F1 2010 race car for the first time on home soil yesterday at a special 'homecoming' celebration in Kuala Lumpur ahead of this weekend's Malaysian Grand Prix at the Sepang International Circuit.

Bad Motor Scooter
|This article does not cite any references or sources. (July 2010)
"'Bad Motor Scooter" was the second track from the album Montrose by the band of the same name. It, along with "Rock Candy", was arguably the best known song by the band, Montrose. The song was penned by frontman Sammy Hagar. Its intro, a distorted electric slide guitar sound which closely emulates that of a revving motorcycle, became the defining component of the song. When the song was conceived before this guitar sound, the band and Ted Templeman were not impressed because they thought it was missing a "hook", to make it stand out. Ronnie Montrose stumbled upon it while messing with a slide and fuzz box one day in the studio. Playing his guitar in Open D tuning, Montrose improvised what became the motorcycle sound — although Templeman and engineer Donn Landee kept him going when they failed to get the tape rolling. [1]
When performed live by the original Montrose line up, Sammy Hagar would play the "motorcycle" introduction on a lap steel slide guitar. Hagar provided the same intro when Chickenfoot, the supergroup composed of Hagar, Joe Satriani, Michael Anthony and Chad Smith, performed a version during their live performances.
The song has also been included on the Sammy Hagar compilation The Essential Red Collection. Hagar still plays this song quite frequently in his live act.

In less than three weeks, both Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) and Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) said goodbye to prominent executives. Scott Forstall, the former senior VP of iOS, has left his post and will officially leave Apple in 2013. Steven Sinofsky, the former president of Windows and Windows Live, left Microsoft this week.
Both men are expected to go far in the industry, but it is not yet clear where they will end up. Forstall is expected to be hired by another tech giant, such as Facebook (NASDAQ: FB) or Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN), while Sinofsky may start his own business.
(What message to employees are Apple and Microsoft trying to send?)
Whatever the case, all eyes will be on these two tech leaders as we head into the new year.
Forstall's Journey
Forstall doesn't need a functional mapping application to steer him in the right direction. As the former head of Apple's mobile division, his career roadmap is fairly strong.
Facebook and Amazon could provide some interesting opportunities, especially if the latter firm wishes to develop its own operating system and leave Android behind. To that end, Google (NASDAQ: GOOG) is another firm that is bound to receive Forstall's resume.
Financial firms like Goldman Sachs (NYSE: GS) and JPMorgan Chase (NYSE: JPM) might be interested in Forstall's impeccable trading skills. Forstall anticipated Apple's devastating crash and sold most of his shares six months ago. Few on Wall Street can say that.
Forstall's unapologetic attitude might be attractive to the law firm representing Apple in England. He reportedly likes to take credit for other people's work. This quality might appeal to corporations that do the same thing.
In the old days, Yahoo (NASDAQ: YHOO) would have hired Forstall as quickly as possible. The new, Marissa Mayer-powered Yahoo might not be as interested.
Forstall will bring a big name and a lot of media attention to any company he joins. As a result, startups and struggling enterprises are bound to be the first in line to hire him.
Sinofsky's Path
Sinofsky spent the last 23 years of his life working for Microsoft. Now that he has left the firm, it is hard to imagine that he will join another tech company without first considering other options.
In his internal memo to Microsoft employees, Sinofsky said that his "passion for building products is as strong as ever and I look forward focusing my energy and creativity along similar lines." Business Insider thinks this is code for, "I wasn't fired — I quit. And I'm ready to compete with Microsoft."
Based on the internal memo and the public comments made by both Sinofsky and Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer, it is clear that he was not fired. But he is unlikely to build a firm with the intent of competing with Windows.
Rather, Sinofsky will probably build his own software company that compliments the work of Microsoft and other tech giants. If that initiative proves to be innovative, his former employer might be tempted to acquire the firm. But then Sinofsky would be back where he started.
If Sinofsky intends to look elsewhere for employment, he may very well explore opportunities at Google and Apple. However, the latter firm is unlikely to hire him. By taking on a former Microsoft employee that was responsible for leading Windows, Apple would publicly promote and justify everything that its competitor has done for the past 20 years. It would be Apple's subtle way of admitting that Windows is a worthy competitor to Mac OS — not just in sales but in quality and execution. That is not a message Apple wants to send to investors.
Sinofsky might be better suited for Google, where he could help refine Android. He could work wonders at Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX), but only as a replacement for its current CEO, Reed Hastings. (If Hastings was allowed to stay, Sinofsky would not be able to bring the necessary changes that are needed to ensure the company survives.)
Facebook and Amazon could also benefit from Sinofsky's talent.

AMSTERDAM - A local marching band will be making the journey to Washington, DC in just over a week, to compete in a Presidential Inauguration Music Festival.
On Thursday, the "Marching Rams" gave us a taste of their talent.
A few members of the 120 member troupe practiced for the competition to be held the weekend before President Obama is sworn into office on January 21st.
The band applied to be in the inaugural parade but wasn't chosen.
Still, the students will get to watch the President take his oath.
"It's exciting to think, to grow up and be, like, we were there and we saw it. different from being on your couch and watching it on TV," said Danielle DiCaprio, a bass drum player.
"We have the jazz band competition the marching band competition then the whole aura of the inauguration, everything combined. It's fantastic," said Allie Seyfried, who is drum major.
All bands will get a trophy and a special Inaugural patch.

This past week from Tuesday morning until Friday afternoon my bp would not go below 13x/7x (my usual is 11x/6x) no matter what I did leaving me with a general sense of feeling yuck, a super mild headache and super mild swelling of the feet, which I wouldn't have even noticed if I didn't know to look for swelling. My call in numbers are 140/90, though I almost texted Friday, but then voila, everything went back to normal.
We're 23 weeks tomorrow. So what the heck was that all about? I know we have plenty of room for intervention, and if we do trend higher we'll start bp meds, so I'm attempting not to worry too much. I think the fact that we're at the same gestation as with our 2nd when they started to suspect something and we started doing some 24hrs, which until 29 weeks all came back below 300, has me a lil' on edge. I know it's wasn't even really "high" yet, but, that was weird and totally unnecessary for my supposed to be third times a charm easy breezy pregnancy!
Anyone have similar periods of elevated bp for no foreseeable reason?

BEAUMONT – The Lamar baseball team wrapped up its non-conference slate earlier this week, and the Cardinals will be looking to finish the home schedule in memorable fashion as they aim for a fifth consecutive Southland Conference series victory when Houston Baptist makes the trek to Vincent-Beck Stadium this weekend.
LU (27-18), who started the league season with wins in just two of its first nine games, currently carries a 12-9 Southland mark with just nine games left on the schedule. The Red and White are tied for fifth in league standings, but enter the week just one game out of third and two games ahead of a tie for seventh. The top eight teams will make it to the Southland Tournament, which will be held later this month in Conway, Ark.
BEAUMONT - Brett Brown couldn't have asked for a better start to Wednesday night's game against Houston Baptist, but a second inning home run was all the Huskies needed as the Lamar baseball team fell 8-1 at Vincent-Beck Stadium.
HBU, on the other hand, is 9-12 in the Southland this season and 20-21 overall. The Huskies are just one game out of the final spot in the tournament.
The Cards, winners of each of their past four series, would be the first LU squad to win five consecutive since 2006. The biggest offensive reason for the success has been the duo of Sam Bumpers and Jude Vidrine. Bumpers, a shortstop out of Bourbonnais, Ill., is hitting a scorching .473 in league games this year, scoring 24 times in just 21 games with 11 extra-base hits. Vidrine, who's touched home 23 times in league play, boasts of a team-leading .456 on-base percentage for the season with a nation-leading 40 walks.
Both Vidrine and Bumpers will be joined by fellow seniors J.T. Autrey, Andrew Beasley, David Carver, Hunter Perry, Jake Sutton and Lance Warren when the Cards host a Senior Day ceremony prior to Saturday's game.
On the mound, Chase Angelle will get the nod on Saturday as he looks to continue his fantastic junior campaign. The southpaw out of Orange has made 10 quality starts in just 11 appearances this season, posting a 3.04 earned run average with a .242 opponent batting average over 77 innings of work. David Carver, another lefty, will get Friday's start, and carries a 1-1 record with a 4.22 ERA over 21.1 frames. Sunday's starter is to be determined.
First pitch on Friday is scheduled for 6:30 p.m., and Saturday's game is slated to get going at 2 p.m. Sunday's home finale at Vincent-Beck will start at 1 p.m.
Sunday will also feature the Jr. Cardinal Spring Festival, which will include inflatables, food and an appearance by Big Red. Each Jr. Cardinal member is invited to bring a friend and membership forms will be available at the game.

- Presenting employees of the year
Stephanie Nixon
Reyna Meyers
Willamette University recognizes employee achievements
At its May 20 Administrative and Classified Excellence Awards Luncheon, Willamette University named Reyna Meyers as classified employee of the year and Stephanie Nixon as administrative employee of the year.
Reyna Meyers works as an administrative assistant for the College of Law and the Center for Religion, Law and Democracy. She was named employee of the year for the exceptional quality of her work and her many contributions to campus life. Reyna also participates on the university's Sustainability Council, a group that coordinates many of the activities for which Willamette is known as a national leader.
"Most of all, Reyna is an eternal optimist and someone you can count on to greet each day and each challenge with a smile and a 'can do' attitude," said Kathy Graham, associate dean at Willamette's College of Law. "She not only works hard on the job, but she enjoys participating in Willamette activities in her time away from work."
Beyond her duties as Associate Director of Residence Life, Stephanie Nixon volunteers with Willamette Academy, the university's college-access program for traditionally underrepresented youth, and many other campus organizations, such as the Office of Multicultural Affairs for Martin Luther King Jr. Week.
Nixon is well-known for her keen judgment and compassion. "Stephanie fosters an environment that celebrates diversity," said Marilyn Derby, Director of Residence Life.
"Stephanie has changed lives through her service to Willamette Academy," said Bob Casarez, Director of Willamette Academy. As a mentor who helps students complete college applications or prepare for SATs, "she inspires students to believe in themselves," Casarez said.
About the award
After open nominations, the ACE committee evaluates the nominations and selects employees-of-the-year, whose names are displayed on a plaque in Waller Hall. Employees-of-the-year are given a reserved parking space in the lot of their choice for one year.

Hanukkah, American Style
The Jewish festival near Christmas gained prominence in the U.S.
By Michael Feldberg
We Also Recommend
Reprinted with permission of the American Jewish Historical Society from "Chapters in American History."
Hanukkah, the Festival of Lights, celebrates the victory, in 164 B. C. E. of armed Jewish rebels led by Judah the Maccabee over the army of the Syrian despot Antiochus IV. Against all odds, the courageous, resourceful, and badly outnumbered Jewish freedom fighters, David-like, slew the Syrian Goliath. Since that day, Jews around the world have marked Hanukkah as a "minor" holiday, not an observance commanded by Scripture but one that is nonetheless traditional.
Hanukkah has allowed Jews who were oppressed or under pressure to assimilate to identify a golden age in which militant, assertive Jews maintained their religious freedom and independence. Lighting candles, playing cards, and gambling with dreidls recall the prowess of the Maccabeans and the miracle of the oil that burned for eight days, a sign that Jews are indeed God's chosen people.
Proximity to Christmas
For the millions of Jewish immigrants who came to America at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries, Hanukkah in the New World took on new, ambiguous, and conflicted meanings. Hanukkah's proximity on the calendar to Christmas posed particular challenges. By the 1890s, Christmas was firmly established as America's premiere season for gift giving. For many Americans of all faiths, consumerism and general feelings of "good cheer" supplemented, if not replaced, the religious basis for Christmas. The holiday was rapidly becoming a national, rather than purely Christian, tradition.
For Jewish immigrants feeling pressure to shed their European ways, exchanging gifts with neighbors at Christmastime signaled their adaptation to their new home. In 1904, the Forward quoted Jewish Christmas shoppers who, when challenged, asked (in Yiddish), "Who says we haven't Americanized?" The paper observed, "The purchase of Christmas gifts is one of the first things that proves one is no longer a greenhorn."
As historian Jenna W. Joselit notes, some Jewish leaders criticized the tendency of immigrant Jews to accept Christmas as an American consumer ritual. Writing in The Menorah in 1890, Rabbi Kaufman Kohler asked, "How can the Jew, without losing self-respect, partake in the joy and festive mirth of Christmas? Can he without self-surrender, without entailing insult and disgrace upon his faith and race, plant the Christmas tree in his household?"

Violation notices issued by DENR; fish near Kerr Lake checked
State regulators have issued notices of violation for five Duke Energy power plants, in addition to two issued for violations at the Dan River power plant in Eden, for failure to obtain a federally mandated National Pollution Discharge Elimination System stormwater permit.
The violation notices are part of the state's ongoing probe into Duke Energy's coal ash ponds that was prompted by the collapse of a 48-inch stormwater pipe. The collapse on Feb. 2 caused a massive spill of coal ash into the Dan River, one which could potentially impact Kerr Lake.
The Dan flows into Kerr Lake, which is the primary source of drinking water in this area.
Duke officials said in early February that this pipe was completely sealed.
Duke Energy has 30 days to respond to the notices for the stormwater violations for all six facilities cited, according to a release from the N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources.
The five additional facilities receiving notices of violation are the Belews Creek Steam Station in Rockingham County, Cliffside Steam Station in Rutherford County, Lee Steam Electric Plant in Wayne County, Roxboro Steam Electric Power Plant in Person County, and Sutton Steam Electric Plant in New Hanover County.
Last week, scientists with DENR also started collecting fish in the Dan River in Eden near the site of the coal ash spill to begin fish tissue testing to determine if fish are safe to eat.
"Fish tissues collected this week will serve as baseline data to compare against fish tissue samples collected later in the year," a Feb. 24 DENR press release states. "Scientific research shows that it typically takes more than a few weeks for pollutants to accumulate in fish tissue. After these initial samples are taken, staff members plan to return in about one month, then six months and then a year from now to take additional fish tissue samples for comparison."
One fish tissue sampling site will be upstream of the coal ash spill site while the other three will be at the Virginia state line, in Milton, and at the headwaters of Kerr Lake in Virginia, according to the Feb. 24 release.
DENR's latest water quality tests show concentrations of iron and aluminum in the Dan River continue to decrease, but aluminum still exceeds surface water quality standards at all upstream and downstream sampling locations, according to a Feb. 27 DENR press release.
Staff with DENR reported last week that iron concentrations are now within state surface water quality standards at all the sampling stations, except at the Milton site, which is the site farthest downstream from the spill.

Oil hovers below $77 a barrel as traders eye euro
SINGAPORE - SINGAPORE (AP) - Oil prices hovered below $77 a barrel Tuesday in Asia after wild gyrations of the euro whipped crude around for the last week.
Benchmark crude for June delivery was down 13 cents to $76.67 a barrel at midday Singapore time in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The June contract rose $1.69 to settle at $76.80 on Monday.
Oil is down from an 18-month high of $87.15 a barrel early last week as the European debt crisis undermined investor confidence in the euro. Commodities priced in dollars, such as oil, become more expensive for investors holding euros as the U.S. currency strengthens.
Crude rebounded Monday after the European Union Commission and International Monetary Fund pledged a loan package of euro750 billion ($975 billion) to defend the common currency, but closed off its high of $78.51 as the euro gave back some of its gains.
The euro fell to $1.2725 on Tuesday from $1.2790 on Monday while the dollar fell to 92.72 yen from 93.29 yen.
Some analysts expect the bailout to temporarily stabilize European bond prices but eventually weaken the euro and weigh on oil prices.
"While the euro-zone support plan appears sufficient to forgo any contagion for now, additional weakening in the euro should eventually spill over" into oil prices, Ritterbusch and Associates said in a report.
In other Nymex trading in June contracts, heating oil rose 0.27 cents to $2.123 a gallon, and gasoline was steady at $2.173 a gallon. Natural gas fell 2.0 cents to $4.150 per 1,000 cubic feet.
In London, Brent crude was down 15 cents to $79.97 on the ICE futures exchange.

The café within the terrific, playful Citygarden sculpture park rises above the cliché of the usual museum restaurant. The dinner menu offers restrained - and reasonably priced - portions structured so that you can build your own tasting menu or just stop in for a snack. The dishes, from local restaurateur Jim Fiala (the Crossing, Liluma, Acero), feature Mediterranean flavors and as much locally sourced produce as possible, including the "50-Mile Salad," which takes its ingredients from a 50-mile radius. Look for lots of good seafood (oven-poached striped bass) and pork and lamb dishes. A selection of grass-fed, organically raised steaks will please carnivores.

Despite what your tiny, feeble hopes might want to believe, rumor has it that Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel reunited after only a few months apart. A source told Us Weekly that the pair have been "quietly seeing each other again. They have been talking the whole time and decided to give it another shot. Jessica really wanted to get back together with him and Justin realized single life is not what it's cracked up to be." We aren't surprised; Timberlake seems like he can only go so long without reciting romantic poetry while administering a sensual back massage. If he doesn't serenade a woman every 72 hours, his nervous system just starts to shut down. It's in his DNA.
The Justin Timberlake Jessica Biel break up happened in March, and since then the two have been spotted out and about with a variety of other possible snuggle buddies. Timberlake has been rumored to be seeing Ashley Olsen and Olivia Wilde, while Biel was spotted out with Gerard Butler, who is easily worth an Olsen and a Wilde combined. We guess we should also admit that we've been seeing Justin on and off too. What? We saw him staggering down the street with a box of half-eaten chocolate and a dozen wilted roses; we had to help a guy out.

Epidemiologic models can be useful for evaluating the potential of various management strategies to control the spread of plant pathogens (Jeger and Chan, 1995). In the case of insect-transmitted pathogens, such models suggest that effects on vector fitness that lead to higher rates of population growth on infected plants could significantly affect rates of pathogen spread (Holt et al., 1997; Zhange et al., 2000). One model of the whitefly-transmitted African cassava mosaic virus is based on substantial field data (Holt et al., 1997) which showed that the rate of spread was sensitive both to vector population dynamics (abundance, birth rate, mortality) and to virus transmission rates (inoculation and acquisition). When virus infection of hosts leads to increased vector fecundity, spatial aggregation of vectors is promoted (Zhang et al., 2000). Models predict that vector aggregation should have a dual effect. Within the infected crop, it should reduce the effective contact rate between vector and host and thus lead to lower disease incidence than would be predicted without aggregation. On the other hand, it could cause increased emigration rates of infective vectors to other hosts in the area (Zhang et al., 2000).
Most of the models described here are based on systems in which the vector insect reproduces within the crop. However, when the incidence of disease depends primarily on the immigration of vectors from alternative hosts that act as reservoirs of pathogens and of vectors, other models show that disease incidence is largely insensitive to vector mortality unless the vector population is extremely small, and therefore insecticide treatment is ineffective (Holt et al., 1999). To evaluate the potential of targeting various aspects of the interaction between Xf and its vectors for control, it is essential to understand the population dynamics of vectors inside and outside of the vineyard.
Epidemiologic models have predicted that vector preference behavior will have a significant influence on the rate of pathogen spread, and conventional wisdom postulated that vector preference for infected hosts over healthy ones would promote the spread of disease (e.g., Irwin and Thresh, 1990; Matthews, 1991). However, the results of several recent epidemiologic models suggest that often the reverse is true (McElhany et al., 1995; Real et al., 1992). That is, a preference for healthy plants often leads to greater rates of pathogen spread, because an infective vector is less likely to "waste" a visit to a plant that is already infected. However, the effect of vector preference depends on the frequency of infected plants in the population and on whether the transmission system is persistent, nonpersistent, or semipersistent. Models predict that pathogens with even moderate persistence are likely to have higher rates of spread by vectors that prefer healthy plants at most disease frequencies (McElhany et al., 1995). Given the persistence of Xf in adult sharpshooters, vector preference for healthy grape plants could lead to faster spread of PD.

Or, Have your cake and eat it too–in a virtual kitchen.
Tell me if you don't recognize yourself or your clients in the following question: "What is xyz product (cabinets, lights, paint, appliances, etc) really going to look like when it's installed in my house? "
The New Ravenna version: "How can I tell how this little mosaic sample will read once it's all over my wall? Will I spend all this money and then want to take a sledgehammer to the floor every time I need to pee? "
Let's face it, it's tough to visualize. Clients don't want to commit until they see the product installed, and they won't generally be able to see it installed unless they…buy it.
These days, many 3-D virtual design programs exist that purport to solve this conundrum. So far, I've only stuck my toe into the large vat of options that exist out there in interior-design-world– 20-20, Chief Architect, Google SketchUp, etc. After viewing random 3-D renderings generated by these programs over the years, I'd always wondered how New Ravenna could have our designs incorporated into them.
But alas, I've become fairly ADD after juggling all the different responsibilities a small business lays like a sack of cement on your back. So virtual reality design kept getting pushed further and further down the list of priorities…behind things like: Why is our applied labor cost so high this month? or, (I swear this actually happened) What do you mean we sent Shelley Tile a set of Pokeman pajamas instead of her mosaic order?
But then a wonderfully generous man named Miguel Merida contacted me and wanted to use our patterns in a virtual design program called AutoKitchen, and he sent me a mock-up to demonstrate his product…for free! I have to say we were blown away by the image, by his choice of pattern, and by the way he repeated the pattern.
Nice job Miguel, right? Having never heard of AutoKitchen, I did a little research. Here's some history from their website: "In 1998, Microcad Software was the first European company to sign an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) agreement with Autodesk® for the development of a kitchen design program. This is how autokitchen® was born. Today, autokitchen® is the leading stand-alone kitchen design software built on a standard CAD engine, namely AutoCAD®. Since its introduction in 1998, autokitchen® has put the power and flexibility of AutoCAD® into the hands of thousands of designers, architects, builders, cabinetmakers and remodelers."
AutoKitchen will be at KBIS in Las Vegas the end of April–I'll definitely be checking out their booth (C4990) since we'll be exhibiting as well, and finally meeting Miguel. Have any of you tried AutoKitchen? What programs do you like to use for your design-work, and why?
Faster, cheaper, easier; I'm all about SketchUp.
Hi Sara, I've been designing for 14 years and in that time have worked for four showrooms and one cabinet manufacturer. The first two showrooms I worked for used 20/20, the third hand-drew everything, and the showroom I'm with now was deciding between AutoKitchen and Chief Architect and have decided to go with Chief Architect. When I was a rep with a very large cabinet manufacturer, they only supported 20/20 so any of my 66 dealers who used software, used 20/20.
I know you've written in the past about what a fan you are of SketchUp, and it's on my list of things I will try when I find the time. But what I'd really like to know is: How many kitchen showrooms actually USE these programs?
I would say that all of them use a modeling program. 20/20 is a dead end and is starting to lose market share as designers discover other software that shows off 3D images better.
I use Sketchup as my exclusive modeling program. A few years ago, I got really frustrated with 2020's stability, price, and total lack of support. While Sketchup isn't a 100% replacement for 2020, I have come up with other solutions to replace the few things that Sketchup doesn't do.
Bottom line is Sketchup is super easy to use, makes great drawings, and above all else, it helps me sell designs better then anything else out there.
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions about it.
Am in market for KB software, have used 20/20, ProKitchen and recently played with Chief Architect. Also tutor AutoCAD Architecture. Chief A and Sketchup don't do pricing for cabinets and that's a lot of work to have to reenter. Does AutoKitchen do pricing?
Hi Sara,
I met with Miguel at KBIS last week and was nearly sold on AutoKitchen- the only thing holding me back was the cost. Being an AutoCAD user for many years AutoKitchen is a no-brainer. I do a lot of custom kitchens and baths so 20-20 not going to do anything for me. I'll test drive Chief Architect but I feel strongly AutoKitchen is the one for me.
I spoke with someone else at KBIS who also loves Auto-Kitchen. I am a complete neophyte concerning all kitchen design programs, but I can imagine how useful they'd be. And Miguel certainly was a delight to work with!

beef frankfurters
4 tablespoons
barbeque sauce
2 teaspoons
dry mustard
2 (16 ounce) cans
baked beans with pork
I adjusted the recipe for 17 people, for a work pot-luck. I used a little less mustard and a little more BBQ sauce. And 3 packages of Little Smokies instead of franks. I also put them in a crock pot to slow cook for the 4 hours leading up to lunch. It was a hit! Everyone loved them! I came home with an empty pot!
This is just hot dogs in baked beans. It gets a two because I like hot dogs and I like baked beans. If you are looking for something special this isn't it.

Kiddos really liked this one. I used Nathans hot dogs, Sweet Baby Rays BBq sauce and used Frenches yellow mustard instead of dry mustard. Easy and quick. Thanks!
You really have to like mustard & bbq sauce to enjoy this. I think the amount of mustard was a little overwhelming, but I didn't let the flavors marry before eating either. Good, easy summer lunch, thanks Sheila.
Family loved it. Thanks!
Started these with Sandys baked beans from this site and they were a tad sweet but the dry mustard took care of that. I actually fried my hotdogs to brown them a little bit and then added the baked beans, bbq sauce and mustard.
Boy, did my kids love "Hot Dog Soup". The mustard and BBQ (I used Ting Tang BBQ sauce from this site) sauce added a little umph to please the adults, too. Quick, easy, but a lot better than Pork n Beans from a can. Thanks!
It's ok. Not a gourmet meal. But it is quite good for a very quick and easy meal on the table in 15 minutes.

An interview with Ibiza's inspirational DJ Alfredo
Alfredo moved to Ibiza from his native Argentina in the early eighties. Though the island was nowhere near as much of a clubbing hotspot as it is now, he became fascinated with DJing after picking up work at a bar – it wasn't long before he'd become resident at Amnesia where he cultivated what became known as the 'Balearic' sound. He also inspired the UK's acid house movement, after Paul Oakenfold, Nicky Holloway, Danny Rampling and Johnny Walker (AKA the Ibiza Four) visited Amnesia in 1987 and attempted to replicate what they'd heard with their own London club nights. I was fortunate enough to be granted some time with Alfredo at the recent International Music Summit in Ibiza, here's the result of our conversation…
