By tully | "Boredom at Its Boredest" by Michael Tully January 17, 2006 at 5:35AM
I realize I'm wayyyyy past due with this list shit, but here it goes anyway...
Best Albums of 2005:
1. Edan BEAUTY AND THE BEAT – This record makes me feel like the giddy 14-year-old that I used to be, when hip-hop was my sole reason for existing. It's like a lost classic from the New School of '88 or some shit. In only 34 minutes, BEAUTY AND THE BEAT contains more creativity, melody, and giddy invention than almost anything I've ever heard. It's silly, but this is one of those albums that single-handedly justifies my existence. Corny, but true.
1. Sufjan Stevens ILLINOIS – Sufjan Stevens's heartbreaking, profound record is this year's FUNERAL or IN THE AEROPLANE OVER THE SEA. Only time will tell if he can keep up his staggeringly prolific pace, but even if he burns out tomorrow, he can rest assured that he contributed more beauty and emotion with this release than most artists ever will. This record makes me feel sadness in the way that I wish CAPOTE had made me feel. I can't wait for his take on Maryland!
3. Kanye West LATE REGISTRATION – Like Edan, Kanye appreciates the importance of melody in a song. Recruiting Jon Brion was a masterstroke, resulting in a record that is bursting with creativity. But more important than that is Kanye's refusal to be anything but honest, a risky approach that never fails to fascinate and add genuine emotional impact. Like Sufjan, Mr. West is someone who appears to be climbing and climbing with no top in sight.
4. Richard Swift THE NOVELIST/WALKING WITHOUT EFFORT – Don't get me wrong, I still love Rufus Wainwright, but listening to Richard Swift's debut double-release reminds me just how much I loved Rufus's Jon Brion-produced debut. Each song is a musical carnival, featuring diverse and perfectly placed instrumentation underneath Swift's sad, haunting vocals. Easily one of my favorite new artists.
5) Eels BLINKING LIGHTS AND OTHER REVELATIONS – E is a sad, lonely man. Thank God for that. I was skeptical diving into this record, for not many double-albums can maintain a person's interest in this meandering modern era. But BLINKING LIGHTS is different. None of it seems like filler. Granted, I could leave behind four or five songs, but I'll keep all the rest. Jon Brion and Randy Newman and Beck meet at a dive bar in Hollywood to discuss a possible collaboration. This is the result.
6) Teenage Fanclub MAN-MADE – I don't know how this record seemed to slip under everyone's radar. Granted, I'm a sucker for almost anything these guys put out, but this is a really great collection of songs. Raymond delivers his best effort yet, "Only With You," and Gerry delivers more sugar-powered sweetness. But it is Norman who really shines here. I honestly think that this is the music Kurt Cobain would be making if he were he still alive.
7) DangerDoom THE MOUSE AND THE MASK – Man, only one genuine MF Doom album in the past calendar year? That's rookie behavior. It's a good thing that this record is so giddily good. Danger Mouse is definitely a gifted producer, and the guest MCs add even more flavor (especially Talib Kweli and Ghostface). I'm not a Cartoon Network aficionado, so some of the character appearances sound like bad Homestar Runner to me, but I can forgive that because the tracks are all tight.
8) Fiona Apple EXTRAORDINARY MACHINE – I'm referring to the unreleased Jon Brion-produced album here. Not that I'm taking sides, I just didn't bother listening to the new one, as I had already become to attached to the first version. Whatever her issues, Ms. Apple is talented as shit and this is a record that I can listen to repeatedly without getting bored.
9) Antony and the Johnsons I AM A BIRD NOW – This is an album of breathtaking fragility that deserves all the accolades that are being thrown its way. Antony's voice is a cry in a dark universe, a whimpering bellow, a tender call to arms in a harsh, brutal world. Everybody, be nice to him, please. He sounds like an abused, terrified puppy.
10) Vashti Bunyan LOOKAFTERING – I guess I'm exposing myself as a bit of a pansy this year (big shocker to those of you who know me), but Vashti's return to the limelight is a remarkably wonderful one. Thanks to the godly Max Richter, each song is painstakingly, perfectly arranged, allowing Vashti's timeless songwriting to reach a truly ethereal state.
OTHER WORTHWILE LISTENS (In No Particular Order):
Anom "So It's Come to This," Deerhoof "The Runners Four," Little Brother "The Minstrel Show," M.I.A. "Arular," Bloc Party "Silent Alarm," My Morning Jacket "Z," M.

State Exploring the Idea of Selling Naming Rights for Ferries
State transportation officials are appraising whether the corporate zeal to buy naming rights might extend to ferry boats and terminals.
From Safeco Field to Kitsap Sun Pavilion, sports venues are known for the company names they take on. Washington State Ferries, facing a $3.5 billion shortfall over the next 22 years, wants to get in on the act.
A long-term ferry financing study completed in February for the state Transportation Commission concluded that "ancillary" revenues, including vessel and terminal naming rights, wouldn't put much of a dent in operating costs, but should be explored anyway "given the magnitude of WSF's financial crisis and the need to identify new sources of revenue."
The study recommended that a detailed analysis be performed. The Legislature put a proviso in the budget in April directing the Transportation Commission to conduct one, and in August it chose TB-Rogstad Consulting for the job.
Traci Brewer-Rogstad, principal and executive director of the company, said a report is due to the Legislature in January and she wants to present it to the Transportation Commission at its Oct. 21-22 meeting.
Time is short, Brewer-Rogstad said, because there's a 64-car ferry being built at Todd Shipyards in Seattle and it doesn't have a name. It will be delivered to the Port Townsend-Keystone route next summer.
Naming rights would mean more than just getting a company's name painted on the hull, said Brewer-Rogstad, a former Washington State Ferries executive. One idea is to continue with the traditional Native American names and attach a sponsorship to them. For a certain number of years, for example, a ferry could be named the MV Illahee sponsored by Puget Sound Energy, or the Illahee sponsored by Detroit, which is building the new boat's engines. Blocks of space on the boat could be guaranteed to the company for advertising, its name could go on the WSF Web site and schedules.
"You're no longer just selling a name but marketing a package," said Brewer-Rogstad, whose firm is earning about $5,000 for the study. "They get their name out there on multiple venues. It's just not on a boat going to Port Townsend, which is very low-profile." Selling ferry sponsorships is uncharted territory. The only thing close is a trio of Oklahoma City boats. The city, in exchange for locally based Devon Energy paying $2 million to build the 50-passenger boats, allowed the company's name on them for 15 years. They weren't meant to be marketing tools.
"The primary motivation was to provide the funds necessary to build the boats so the boats would be able to play a role in enhancing continued development of this river," Devon spokesman Chip Minty said. "They move up and down the Oklahoma River, which is an emerging focal point in Oklahoma City for development."
The Devon Discover, Devon Explorer and Devon Pioneer aren't ferries but tour boats aimed at tourists, Minty said.
Ferries wouldn't land a company's name on TV, radio and in the newspapers as regularly as stadiums do, which is main appeal, said Chris Foy, president of General Sports Alliances, a Denver sports marketing firm that specializes in naming rights.
"When you look at an entity such as a ferry boat, you have a significant void in the editorial media coverage traditionally tied to naming rights platforms," he said. "Unless the boat sinks, there would not be any kind of media coverage."
Still, ferries could be attractive because of the high traffic volume, Foy said, and they provide an interesting platform for promotional opportunities, like a VIP club.
The tradition of giving ferries Indian names goes back to at least the 1930s. The state, which took over the ferry system from Puget Sound Navigation Company in 1951, agreed to continue the practice in 1958 after catching flak from Native Americans and history buffs for naming its first new boat the Evergreen State.
Sen. Tim Sheldon, D-Potlatch, sponsored a bill last legislative session that included tribes among those that should be consulted about new ferry names. It also added that "when naming or renaming state ferry vessels, the commission shall consider selling the naming rights and make recommendations to the legislature."
The House didn't like that part, and the bill never got passed.
"In Olympia they had trouble with the bill," Sheldon said. "Some legislators thought this cheapens a state icon. I don't think so. It's just a business decision and riders will appreciate it if we can lower their cost and get them a newer and better terminal or better service."
Count Rep. Sherry Appleton, D-Poulsbo, among those against selling ferry naming rights. Putting advertising inside the boats was one thing, but this would be too much.
"This is Puget Sound, this is where people come to get on our ferries," she said. "It's huge for tourism, it's huge for commuters. To name ferries or have them sponsored by a corporation is just not what people really want."
Sheldon said the Muckleshoot Tribe in Auburn is interested in having a ferry named after it. Tribe Chief Executive Officer Jerry Henke couldn't be reached last week for comment.
Russell Steele, CEO of the Suquamish Tribe, said naming rights is an interesting concept, but not something the tribe would pursue at this point.
"Most people on the ferries are the same people every day, and I think the people of Kitsap County know who we are," Steele said. "We do other things to reach out to new markets already. At this point I don't think it's something we'd consider."

Transfer music
On my iPod I have music from other libraries as well as mine so when I sinc with my iTunes it will delete the music that isn't on my computer.
How can I transfer the music I got from other people from my iPod to my hard drive so that I can then add it to iTunes?is there a program that will allow me to do it?
I used to use CopyPod but I can't find a version for mac...do you now if there is a similar program?
thank you very much...
Try iPod Rip (shareware - can be used 10x for free first though.)
www.iLounge.com has a large library of iPod related software (mac & windows) so maybe look there for other free alternatives.
Just to point out what you're asking to do is illegal.
Schweb is right of course - if the music libraries you're copying contain copyrighted music, then you aren't allowed to do this.
But you're probably sharing Creative commons licensed music right? Or stuff that the artist allows you to share? Like the stuff you can find at www.ampliphonic.de/media/sound/
btw, i think the best ipod coy util is probably senuti...find it on versiontracker.com

But if you're of age, want to eat Gummi Bears and drink alcohol at the same time, then keep reading. Bring these to a party and you'll be everyone's hero. More

In ZBrush 4 Essential Training, Ryan Kittleson introduces ZBrush to artists making a transition from another sculpting program or who may just need some help with the finer points of this powerful digital arts package. The course covers the most popular tools and techniques for digital painting and sculpting in ZBrush, and explains how to export the models and texture maps to other programs for use in games, film, fine art, or 3D printing. The course also highlights the new features in ZBrush 4, such as ShadowBox, clip brushes, and LightBox. Exercise files are included with the course.
Brushes are the things that you've used to sculpt and color your model. They come in many varieties, but they all have some settings in common. Let's open up the DemoDog to have something to work with. So, for example, the size of the brush is shown on screen by the bigger red circle around the cursor. This is something that all brushes have in common. You can change the size of the brush by moving the slider that says Draw Size. You can also use the left and right brackets on the keyboard to grow and shrink the brush size, but only if you're on a PC; sorry Mac people.
The smaller red circle around the cursor is called the focal shift. Put simply, it defines what kind of falloff the brush has. If the inner circle is small, the effect of the brush is concentrated in the middle. So I can make it really small. You can see that most of the effect of the brush is happening in the middle. If I make it very large, then the effect of the brush is going to be spread out over most of the area of the brush. I actually don't change this very often from the default. Right in the middle usually works good for most situations.
All brushes also have an intensity-- the higher the number, the more pronounced the effect will be when you sculpt. So right here if I crank up the Intensity, you're going to get a really heavy, pronounced effect from this brush. Let me just undo that with Ctrl+Z, and now let me show you if I bring it down really low, you can barely even see that effect. It's more useful if you want to make very subtle changes. There's also a huge variety of brush types that do all kinds of things to the surface of the model. They can be selected by clicking on the default brush called Standard, up here on the left side.
Then you can click on any of the others to test them out. Some of them are pretty intuitive; others take some time before you really understand what they do. I'll talk about some of the more important specific brushes in the later movies of this chapter. A quick way to access brushes is by pressing B on the keyboard. This brings up the Brush palette. If you're looking for a specific brush, just press the first letter of its name. For example, I am looking for the Inflate brush, so I'll press I. Now, we see only the brushes that begin with the letter I. Each brush also has an orange letter next to the icon.
You can see that Inflate has the letter N, so press N to select the Inflate brush. Each brush can be quickly chosen if you remember its keyboard combination. Anytime you want the Standard brush, for example, quickly type B+S+T and it will be made active. Take a moment to experiment with these settings and get a feel for how they affect the surface of the model. These features are some of the most common controls that you'll be using in ZBrush, so make sure you get comfortable with them.

ABILENE, Texas - In a game that saw 26 3-pointers find the mark, Gia Ayers drained the last one, and the biggest one, to give the Lamar Lady Cardinals an 85-83 win over host Abilene Christian in a Southland Conference women's basketball game Thursday evening.
Ayers nailed a dagger of a trey with 12.5 seconds left to give the Lady Cardinals an 84-83 lead, silencing the Moody Coliseum crowd as Lamar roared back from an eight-point deficit in the final 3:23. Ayers had a game-high 25 points as Lamar (10-8 overall, 5-2) won for the fifth time in the last six games.
"Gia had ice in her veins," Lamar coach Robin Harmony said. "That shot was clutch."
JaMeisha Edwards had 23 points for Lamar before fouling out, while Caroline Adesulu had the first double-double of her career, finishing with career highs of 13 points and 15 rebounds.
Adesulu, who was playing in her 45th career game, had never even attempted a 3-pointer before Thursday. But even she got into the act, going 2-of-3 from beyond the arc. Adesulu drained a free throw with 2.3 seconds remaining to close out the scoring.
"Caroline was unbelievable," Harmony said. "Not only did she score some big points, she grabbed some huge rebounds and made some big defensive plays."
Lamar was 12-of-31 (38.7 percent) from downtown, while Abilene Christian (11-8, 2-2) was 14-of-45 (31.1 percent).
Suzzy Dimba led Abilene Christian with 23 points and 16 rebounds. Renata Marquez had 22 points and Alexis Mason had 20 points for the Wildcats, who suffered their second straight home loss after opening the season 7-0 at Moody Coliseum.
Lamar, which led 52-46 at halftime, was down 80-72 with 3:23 left before closing out the game on a 13-3 run, with Ayers scoring nine of those points.
Lamar returns to action at 2 p.m. Saturday at Southland Conference newcomer Incarnate Word. That game will air live on KLVI (AM 560) and be simulcast on www.Lamar Cardinals.com. The Lady Cardinals host Houston Baptist at 5:30 p.m. Jan. 30.

Here it is!
My mysterious, new, Project Nine Reversed C-Bow!
Range is about 60 to 70 ft!
It functions great and looks as it works, fantastic!
This idea for a reversed crossbow started about 6 months ago...
I already had a Project Nine lying around but it was ugly, it failed to work sometimes, and the handle wasn't anywhere near comfy.
This one is the best version yet!
Heres some pro's and no's:
-Crazy Range
-Looks great
-One or two handed use
-Small for it's power
Sights are only accurate at a small range (10 ft)
You likey?
Lets get to building then, shall we?
Step 1: Handle
Build it once.
Step 10: The rubberbands
Get these and it will function perfectly.
You can use other RB's but it will function the best with these.
Step 11: Assembly
Ask you're question in a comment and maybe i can help you.
Step 12: Rubberband Emplacement
Ask your problem in a question and maybe i can help you.
The sights are lazy and aren't that good
try a scope or something
Shaking the f*cking pulp out of me it is :S
And you?
Other than that, I'm doing ok :P
You done any knexing lately?
And LittleBigPlanet 2 for that matter :P
At the moment i'm recreating vehicles from Motorstorm on LBP2, then make some tracks for 'em, make a main menu that takes you to the levels, and blamo! Promote it on LBP.me and i might just get it MM-picked.
yet i could easily build this (in 2 hours (i'm a slow builder but fast learner))
Any new guns mate?

A million stars up in the sky
one shines brighter I cant deny
A love so precious a love so true
a love that comes from me to you
The angels sing when you are near
within your arms I have nothing to fear
You always know just what to say
just talking to you makes my day
I love you baby with all of my heart
together forever and never to part.

The U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) has announced the HSBC Bank USA, N.A. (HBUS) has agreed to pay $32,400 to settle potential civil liability for three apparent violations of the Global Terrorism Sanctions Regulations.
OFAC said that HBUS voluntarily self-disclosed the apparent violations and that those apparent violations constituted a non-egregious case, nor were they the result of willful or reckless conduct. OFAC's description of the transactions involved suggests that there was a week spot in HBUS's OFAC interdiction software and that an HBUS compliance officer erred in not screening names provided in a SWIFT message. As a consequence, an allegedly violative payment was allowed. Further, it appears that HBUS OFAC Compliance later failed to recognize information suggesting that future payments involving the same OFAC-designated parties were likely to occur. The second and third apparent violations occurred within the following four months.

Walker said "It's an interesting idea," "I haven't committed one way or the other to it. For me, and I think any other state considering this, you should really look at not just the short-term but the long-term implications. Is it better or worse for the electorate? and continued to say, "Some might argue that it would give more opportunity for candidates to jump in; others suggest it might reduce it."
"I think we have to be very careful in changes like that. But I think it's worth looking at," Walker said.
Democratic Party of Wisconsin Chair Mike Tate in response to Scott Walker's efforts to float a plan to further rig Wisconsin elections.
"Once again, Scott Walker is floating his Tea Party sugar plums out-of-state and before closed rooms of rich donors.
"He's calling the idea to further rig Wisconsin's elections by changing how we apportion our votes to the Electoral College 'interesting.'
"'Interesting' is a word that implies "interests," and it's clear that the only "interests" Scott Walker has in mind are his own.
"What Wisconsinites are "interested" in is getting back to work, investing in education and infrastructure, putting an end to the corruption that has marked Scott Walker's administration, and returning to the high quality of life that makes Wisconsin a great place to live, work and raise a family.
"With yet another cheap pander to far-right extremists, it appears that Scott Walker is looking ahead to his 2016 "interests" by compromising Wisconsin's values for his personal political gain – at a time when Wisconsinites are "interested" in seeing his leadership in creating the 250,000 jobs he promised.

What is your prediction on Reds-Cubs series?
What is your prediction on Reds-Cubs series?
2-1 Reds
Sweep by the Reds. Hey, a boy can dream!
1-2 since they are facing dempster and zambrano
f the scrubs ...!!!! Sweeeeeeep!!!
The Cubs are 33-10 at home, and the Reds are 17-28 on the road.
As a Cubs fan I'd be greatly disapponted if the Cubs don't take two out of three, especially with Zambrano and Dempster slated.
I'll be at all three games at Wrigley and all three at Miller..... should be a great time. Hopefully I can see four or five reds W's. We can all dream as a previous poster said.
if sabathia does get traded 2 the brewers would the reds have 2 face him on their upcoming roadtrip
I say Reds take 2 of 3 from the Cubs, then we sweep the Brew Crew!!!!
Let's make some noise!
It's amazing what a sweep of the worst team in baseball can do for fans' attitudes.
I'll take Harang over Dempster in Game 1.
Eh, Cueto over Zambrano in Game 2.
BA spoils the sweep and the Reds lose to Lilly just because he's LH.
If you ain't first, you're last! - Ricky Bobby
These games should all be winnable for the Reds.

C-Section Recovery
Visit SiteBut this is also information that will help new moms avoid dangerous C-Section complications, risks, and could possibly help you avoid a C-Section altogether.
If you just had a C-section or expect to have one, C-Section Recovery can be tough. I know, I've been there. It's painful, it's depressing and it can seem to take forever to feel like yourself again.
Through my own personal C-Section experiences and research I've discovered some extraordinary, yet not well publicized, information that will help women recover faster, get back into shape quickly without the fatigue.
I'll also demonstrate some key essentials for how to avoid overall health and future birth complications from having a C-Section; and there are several.
…and there's so much more. In fact, I'm going to introduce you to things that you're not likely to hear about from your doctor or your girl friends.
I'm committed to helping you every step of the way so that you are not alone but instead have the support and guidance you need for a healthy C-Section recovery and birth experience that puts YOU in control.
If I'd known then what I know today, my birth experience and c-section recovery would have been so much easier, less painful and much more rewarding.
Because of my own painful and disappointing C-Section experiences, it saddens me that other women may be going through the same things I did. And that's motivated me to help moms all over the world:
I've done all the research for you. I'll show you what works and what doesn't work. I'll demonstrate the safe and effective ways to transition into normal life again, including the easy ways I used to get back into shape quickly.
This isn't a time for fear, pain, fatigue, depression or loss of control. My intention is to guide you on how to prepare for surgery, eliminate confusion, clarify concerns and communicate effectively with your doctor so that you get what YOU want, not what your doctor wants.
No more worrying about future births, miserable hospital stays, fatigue, pain, ugly scarring, adhesions, health risks, having sex again.
First of all, thank you so much for writing this book! I am a pediatrician and am currently 22 weeks pregnant with my third child, which will be my third c-section. I'm sure I'll be writing you more later with my story, but wanted to stop and drop you a quick line.
Hi Elizabeth I just had my second c-section 3 weeks ago and unfortunately I only got your book a couple days after surgery. With my second surgery my pressure level went down to 58/53 while on the operating bed, luckily my DH was there to indicate to the Doctors present what was going on. Then after surgery the nurses gave me the pain meds 2 hours late which resulted in extreme pain and my story can go on. Forgetting this I have a beautiful and charming daughter who already has my DH smitten. She is a joy and a blessing. Your book is so informative and relevant that anyone I know who is pregnant or thinking about it I would share your site with them, it's like the bible on a c-section delivery. Great job and thanks so much for sharing with the world. May God bless you for this gift.
I'm a nurse that works with c-section moms and you have covered so many of the questions & concerns that moms have.
Your style of writing is comforting and I'm so impressed with the candid, useful information you offer regarding c-section recovery . Women will experience a lot less fear and more support… Read more…

My expectations were exceeded 10 fold. The whole mix of travel, by many different modes( bus, mini van, train. Boat) were comfy. The home stays were authentic and a great incite into a Peruvian lifestyle ( right down to weeding the garden) . Machu Picchu was everything I imagined. Thanks Raul and Intrepid.

Stupid Smooth
I just got back from the crag yesterday after using these. My first pair of draws were the posiwire BD's. After much research and play, I found a combination I liked. I use the Evo for my clipping into the bolt. The angle of the biner with the bent gate is unreal smooth. The gate barely opens and its already clipped.... The Evo is also super easy to come off the bolt when cleaning the route. I'm using the WC Helium rope the rope end. Absolutely love this biner.

Home. Some pets never have one to call their own. We'd like to help change that by introducing you to extraordinary adoptable pets every week. Today, meet Charley, a cuddly canine with a winning personality.
Charley has "positude," according to Ron Plante from the Protectors of Animals rescue in East Hartford, Conn. "He is highly adoptable, friendly, happy, good with other dogs, obedient, lovable and cuddly."
The pup's easy-going attitude is even more impressive considering his genetic condition, which has left him with little control over his back legs.
"He has compensated for it, and can wobble along okay on the strength of his front legs and his undying spirit," says Plante. "But his back legs drag, creating open sores and exhausting him. He so wants to take a good walk."
Thus, Charley's ideal owner should be so completely in love with the 4-year-old – like the staff at the shelter is – that they'll give him a permanent place to call home and the wheels he needs to get around. If you can provide one or both of these things, contact the shelter at (860) 569-0722.
"We know there's a great home for him out there," Plante says. "He knows there's a big world out there, and he wants to enjoy it."
Click here to meet last week's adoptable pet, Happy.
Adopting a pet is an amazing experience – and a big decision! Before bringing a pet into your home it's important to consider your family circumstances and do your research on breeds.

Once you are set up, you will receive a user name and password via email, enabling you to access the Banner System.
**Prior to entering the requisition, you will need to determine if the order will contain one FOAP for the entire order, or if multiple FOAPS will be utilized. An example of multiple FOAPS would be an order that contains Computer Hardware using account code 76120 and software using account code 76130. Another example would be one (or more) line item where the cost is being split between multiple departments. If you will be using multiple FOAPS, you will need to UNCHECK the "Document Level Accounting box" located on the top of the form labeled Requestor/Delivery Information. The box is on right hand side. If you do not uncheck the box here, you will not be able to go back and make a change later. You will have to start a new requisition. If you are unsure, please contact our office at 1847.
To enter a requisition in the Banner System, please do the following:
Begin Entry:
Requestor / Delivery Information Tab:
Vendor Information Tab:
Write down the assigned Requisition Number (example: R0012345)
Commodity / Accounting Tab:
If you have additional line items to enter:
Once you have entered all of your line items, you will need to enter the information concerning the back-up associated with your requisition. This is called "Document Text" and will print first on the requisition form:
If you have multiple FOAPS, follow these instructions:
Balancing / Completion Tab:
If it is not balanced, something is not entered correctly. Check to make sure that you have entered the correct amount of FOAP strings for the req you are entering. Also verify that you have entered the amounts and pricing correctly.

NALC Releases White Paper on USPS Business Model, Postal Reform Drafted by Financial Advisory Firm Lazard
Successful revitalization of the U.S. Postal Service requires a strategic business plan that leverages the unmatched reach of its network, legislative action to relieve it of obligations no other business bears and shared sacrifice from all stakeholders, says the renowned international financial advisory firm, Lazard.
"While the Postal Service clearly faces enormous challenges, we do believe that its revitalization is achievable," Lazard says in a white paper released on April 17. The paper, "Delivering Change to Revitalize an American Icon," results from a due diligence investigation of the USPS commissioned in October 2011 by the National Association of Letter Carriers and conducted by a Lazard team with extensive experience in restructuring strategy.
Lazard outlined the basic elements of a reform plan that would aim to revitalize the Postal Service, rather than the approach being advocated by the Postal Service — an approach based on massive, and ultimately counterproductive, reductions in service. Lazard indicated that based on its analysis and experience, the Postal Service's "shrink to survive" strategy will simply facilitate the decline of this vital American institution.
In addition, Lazard's analysis of pending legislation (S. 1789) determined that, while the bill does not go as far as the Postal Service in proposing service reductions, the legislation still amounts to a stop-gap — not real — solution, because it does not fundamentally address the need for change in the way the Postal Service does business. And it too reduces service to the public and to America's businesses.

The Hitachi Magic Wand isn't just for women, it is perfectly capable of satisfying a man also in a multitude of ways, both sexual and not.
Unlike most intimate massage devices, the Magic Wand is also capable of functioning like a muscle massager.
It can target tired or knotted up muscles and encourage better blood flow, allowing the muscles to release all of the impurities that are locked inside them, renewing themselves and pulling fresh blood into them.
The Hitachi Magic Wand is also capable of satisfying a man in a sensual, sexual manner.
If this is the first time you will be using a vibrating device in order to stimulate your prostate you will want to get a good idea how strong it is before inserting it.
Also, for use in stimulating the prostate, you may want to invest in the external speed controller that allows you to turn the speed way down and control it with a dial. What ever you do, don't insert the device and then turn it on, that's a great way to severely over stimulate your prostate which is not a comfortable thing to do.

Meet the RSO
Long before Regina had gained its status as a city, the cultural arts were beginning to flourish. As good fortune would have it many of Regina's early settlers, including members of the North West Mounted Police, were talented musicians and vocalists. However, that talent needed the stimulation provided by Scottish immigrant Franklin L. Laubach. One can only wonder what would have happened had Laubach's original plans to be a farmer not fallen through.
Upon realizing that farming was not for him, Franklin Laubach moved with his family to Regina, where he turned his attention back to his original career in music. By 1904 he had organized the Regina Philharmonic Society and in 1906 conducted Haydn's Creation at Knox Church with a chorus of 67 voices and an orchestra of 13 musicians. By 1908 the Orchestral Society was formed and its inaugural concert was presented in the City Hall Auditorium on December 3rd of that year. Laubach continued to work tirelessly organizing many music events until 1915 when, at the age of 59, he joined the Canadian army. He returned to Regina after WWI and resumed his former role of conductor with the Philharmonic and Orchestral Society which, by 1919, had been reorganized into the Regina Choral and Orchestral Society.
The evolution of the orchestra continued when in 1923 the Regina Choral and Orchestral Society became the Regina Symphony Orchestra, the Regina Choral Society and the Regina Male Voice Choir. However, the orchestra's concert programs continued to read "Regina Orchestral Society" until 1970, when it changed to "Regina Symphony" and finally in 1976, 52 years after the motion was made to change the name, it became the "Regina Symphony Orchestra".
Darke Hall, on College Avenue, was formally opened in 1929, giving the orchestra its first home after years of playing in various buildings in the city. The orchestra continued to perform through the 1930's - the toughest years on the prairies - and throughout WWII with musicians performing primarily as volunteers, receiving honorariums only when there was a financial surplus.
The period between 1959 and 1981 was that of steady growth for the orchestra. This was due to several significant changes during that time. The first was to the status of the Regina College to that of University. The University expanded its Music Department and hired first rate musicians as instructors. This allowed the orchestra to start building its professional group. As well, public funding increased during the late 1960's to the early 1980's and the orchestra's home moved to the Centre of the Arts (now Conexus Arts Centre) in 1970, which allowed the audience to grow from 750 people per concert to over 2,000.
Today the Regina Symphony Orchestra is a full scale, fully professional orchestra that, in a 39 week season, presents a pre-season outdoor concert, 8 Masterworks concerts, 5 Pops concerts, 2 family-oriented concerts, 6 double chamber concerts, and occasional special concerts including perennial favourite Handel's Messiah. As well, the core members (RSO Chamber Players) put on dozens of school concerts each season; 'run out' concerts in South Saskatchewan communities; and free concerts in venues throughout the city of Regina. They also take part in educational activities aimed at students and First Nations youth.
The Regina Symphony Orchestra plays an important role in the cultural fabric of Southern Saskatchewan. By continuing to strive for excellence in performance and by remaining relevant to its audiences, the orchestra will continue to grow and to enrich life in Southern Saskatchewan. The RSO organization will persist through the dedication, and determination provided by the RSO Executive Director, Music Director, Board of Governors, and Musicians. With the support of the orchestra's audiences, sponsors, government and corporate partners the Regina Symphony Orchestra will be performing long into the future.

AUSTIN, Texas -- Those who want to extend the time some hospital patients may live before their life support is cut off are worried their proposal is running into a wall.
And they're concerned time is running out at the Capitol.
Legislation by Rep. Bryan Hughes and pushed by Texas Right to Life requires life-sustaining treatment to continue for patients deemed futile by doctors until a transfer to another medical facility can be arranged.
That's if their family requests it.
Currently, hospitals can stop life support treatment after 10 days in certain cases if the patient is terminally or irreversibly ill and cannot express his or her wishes about treatment.
The Texas Medical Association, Texas Hospital Association and a number of individual hospitals oppose Hughes' bill.
Disabled activist groups, like the Coalition of Texans with Disabilities and Not Dead Yet of Texas, back Hughes' proposal, as does the American Civil Liberties Union.
The Legislature adjourns June 1. Several key House deadlines arrive this week.

When she was growing up, native Australian Kerian Bray never even considered seeking a career in the beauty industry. In fact, it was only through the guidance of her mother and sister that she went to school for beauty therapy where she studied nails, body work and skin care, completing her certification from the Confederation of International Beauty Therapy & Cosmetology (CIBTAC)—an international beauty certifying body—in 1981. It was during this time that Bray embraced her calling.
"It's an amazing profession; you can do so much with it," she says ... and do so much she has. While in school, Bray also studied theatrical and special effects makeup, leading her to work in the Australian film industry. "I couldn't see a career in that, though, so I came back to beauty therapy," explains Bray, who opened her first skin care business in 1986. After four years, she decided to move from the West Coast of Australia to its East Coast, where she opened two smaller skin care businesses. While operating her businesses and working with Australian artists and entertainers she met during her stint in the movie industry, an opportunity presented itself to Bray in 1995: to move to London and work as a trainer for skin care giant Ella Baché. It was also during this time that Bray met her future husband in Australia—he was an American.
Never one to be tied down, Bray sold her spas, moved to London and found herself traveling throughout Europe for her job. "We dated around the world, passed each other in cities and eventually decided that it was more convenient for us to get married so we would see each other more often," she explains. In 1996, Bray moved with her husband to his native America and she continued working for Ella Baché as a trainer, only this time on Madison Avenue in New York City. Soon, Bray changed jobs and found herself working as the director of education and training for Décleor USA. The travel requirements of this position, along with her 90-minute one-way daily commute, took its toll.

The economy may be slowly recovering, but apparently no one is going out and buying new shoes.
Shoe retailer DSW DSW missed earnings on Wednesday morning, blaming the weather and competitive discounting for profit falling 6 cents per share short of what analysts predicted. Overall sales were up just 0.5% to $598.95 million, also below estimates of $622 million — while same store sales fell 3.7%. To complete the trifecta of poor results, DSW slashed full-year earnings to $1.45 to $1.60 per share.
Overall, the results sent DSW stock into a dive. Shares opened down 25% on the day, wiping out over $500 million in market capitalization. Shares are now down nearly 45% year to date.
"We had a challenging quarter due to unseasonal weather and an aggressively promotional retail environment," CEO Mike MacDonald said in a statement. "We sharpened our prices for key items while proactively managing our clearance levels during the quarter. Monthly sales trends were weak but improved sequentially during the quarter. Our team is working hard to deliver an effective assortment with a compelling value message and we expect these initiatives to gain traction in the back half of the year."
MacDonald hopes DSW's recent $69 million purchase of a stake of Town Shoes Ltd, the 180 store Canadian chain, will help the company turn things around.
