Overtime T's are built with durable details for hardworking women.
UPF 50 Overtime Tees are for the really tough jobs, and we have a feeling you'll wear out before they do! The 6-oz. cotton interlock fabric has just enough stretch to make bending, lifting and reaching easier but it won't look sloppy at the end of day. Raglan sleeves make reaching easy, side vents are reinforced with twill so as not to fray, and we taped the neck seams so they won't irritate after 10 (or more) hours on the job.

Best Uses
I work as a Nurse. I wanted a nice tee to wear under my scrubs. I have been a nurse for over 30 years, and at my age no one wants to see my skin when I lift my arms, or when I bend down. Great coverage. Excellent shirt. Please make more of these overtime tees in my colors, Pink, Navy, Loden, and Yellow, and I will be back to buy more.
Tee shirt is very nice looking and well made with high quality fabric. It's rare to find a product that lives up to the advertisment.
riding a motorcycle most days to work,really lile the longer tails,plus its a great shirt for work.
Great shirt! Quality made and sizing is correct. I like the thickness of the fabric too.
Best Uses
I love these short sleeve shirts. They are so comfortable. Only con is that they are a bit baggy which doesn't make them so good for dressing up.
Best Uses
Super comfy, super cute and can dress up or down. From work to dressy casual, I want more, more, more of these tees!
Best Uses
I'm always pleasantly surprised at the softness of your women's shirts. Usually I need to order a shirt specifically made of Pima cotton to get the softness that you consistently offer in your shirts. And, they are tough as well. I work in them. I play in them. They are my " do everything" shirts.
This company's cotton shirts are a better quality cotton and a better price than most of the competition. It's nice to have good, old-fashioned sturdy cotton shirts again.
Best Uses
This would be the perfect tee if it wasn't for the short wide sleeves. I could fit two of my arms in them. Love the weight of the material and would buy dozens if it were not for the sleeves. Maybe this won't be a problem for some buyers but it's not for me. Redesign the sleeves and I'm in!
I love the shirts that I ordered, both crew neck and v-neck. They wash up so easily and no ironing needed. I like the fact that the seams are all double stitched and/or banded. The shirts are also very comfortable and I like the longer length.

Help a Woman During Breast Cancer Treatment
Roll over image to zoom in
As many breast cancer patients have learned, the cost of cancer drugs is enormous - and simply being insured is not always enough.
Some insurance companies do not cover the drugs that are prescribed by doctors to save breast cancer patients' lives. Low-income and underinsured women are then forced to choose between surviving cancer and financial survival. That is unacceptable - these women are already fighting for their lives!
When insurance companies deny the costs of prescription medications, The Patient Access Network (PAN) Foundation steps in to fill the gap. Traditional safety-net assistance programs can only help patients without any insurance at all. PAN helps low-income, underinsured patients in need obtain the life-saving medications their doctors have prescribed.
Help women fighting breast cancer access the medications they need. Your donation through this Gift That Gives More™ provides:
- One Day of Breast Cancer Medication ($21.00)
- One Week of Breast Cancer Medication ($144.00)
Patient Access Network (PAN) Foundation is an independent non-profit established in 2004 and dedicated to assisting patients who cannot afford the out-of-pocket costs associated with their treatment needs. With 50 disease-specific funds, PAN assists the underinsured in accessing health care treatments. Throughout all 50 states and three U.S. territories, PAN provides trained case managers with whom patients or advocates may speak about their care. Patient Access Network Foundation provides hope at times when people have nowhere else to turn.
Free Standard Shipping in the U.S. on your entire cart when you donate $15.00 or more in our Gift That Gives More™ program. See Current Promotions for details.
Why a Gift That Gives More™ is a smart, effective donation.
100% of your donation will go to the program described above as a grant through GreaterGood.org.

Alright, some context before I begin:
I've been studying longsword consistently for five months now. This video was taken at the tail end of a 9 hour practice day of very intense drilling and working out (lead by the guy in the yellow). I'm the chap in the blue-and-grey who's fighting -everyone-.
Please view these videos and let me know what I can do to improve, whether it's overall concepts or specific techniques.

Looks good, for five months. I haven't been training much longer than you, only 9 months. All I can add is watch your posture and the time of your strikes with the movement of your feet, and add more power and speed. You guys are using the Hanwei feders, which we use as well. They can sting and leave welts, but you can hit a little harder with them than nylon or wooden wasters if you have padding. I applaud your courage for posting the videos. Our group has been meaning to do this as well. All in all good job.
Is the guy in yellow Ben?

Nature Scenes: You can see white ibises here in Volusia County
By Lynn Bowen
posted Jan 27, 2014 - 6:47:03am
Flocks of beautiful white ibises with their long, tangerine-colored bills seem to be everywhere in Volusia County lately! We have the swamps, wet prairies, marshes and flooded fields that they love. They live mainly in the southeastern U.S. and south to northern South America.
These 25-inch-tall white wading curlews have small black tips on their wings that are only visible when they fly. Their wingspan is 38 inches, and they weigh about 2 pounds. Their down-curved bill and legs are bright orange now, but turn blood-red at breeding time!
The females are a little smaller than the males, and have shorter bills, but at a glance, the difference is not obvious.
White ibises have partially webbed feet and long legs. If you see brown splotchy ibises, those are the young ones waiting for their white plumage as they mature!
Crawfish, aquatic insects, grasshoppers, crabs, small fish, grass shrimp, and small snakes are their diet. They are tactile, nonvisual foragers who probe with their long beaks in shallow water or soil.
Breeding time is in the spring, and large numbers of the white ibises will gather together. The female selects the site for a nest, which is usually in tree branches, and the male brings the building material. The female lays one to five eggs.
Throughout the times of mating and incubation, the male actually goes through a starvation period so he can be near the nest and defend it -- and defend his mate. He even occasionally helps incubate.
If opportunity knocks, some of the starving male ibises become pirates! Really! I would call it being thieves or just survival, but they're known as pirates, according to one of my resources.
A pirate will sometimes find an unmated female or juvenile, put his long beak in the other bird's mouth, and extract a ball of food! This way, he gets food without being away from the nest. Wow! What a possessive, intriguing life these birds instinctively have!
The eggs hatch in three weeks, and the brown, fuzzy chicks that emerge have short beaks.
White ibises can live up to 16 years. We're glad they like Florida, since we really enjoy them!

The Second Harvest Food Bank in Allentown is serving 33 percent more people now than a year ago.
Every month, the Second Harvest Food Bank helps feed upwards of 60,000 people across the Lehigh Valley—to families straddling the lines of poverty who must rely on emergency food assistance programs for nourishment.
The charitable effort has taken on a higher profile during the current economic recession. In food pantries in Allentown and the valley's other urban centers, for instance, the number of people seeking assistance has grown by a third in less than a year.
This growing demand is causing growing pains for Second Harvest Food Bank, a division of the Community Action Committee of the Lehigh Valley. All told, the bank distributes nearly half a million pounds of food to more than 200 service agencies in the greater Lehigh Valley, an area of six counties in eastern Pennsylvania.
Second Harvest's distribution center is already at capacity, says director Ann McManus. And because resources and revenue for the nonprofit organization are stretched thin, the food bank must make a critical decision: should it expand its current distribution center or build a new warehouse offsite?
The dilemma has made for an interesting case study for six teams of supply chain management majors in Lehigh's College of Business and Economics, who are working with McManus to determine the best practical solution for the food bank.
The other three teams are considering the benefits of moving operations into a completely new facility at a different location, a move that could create new logistical and financial hurdles.
In early December, each team will present its findings and recommendations to McManus much as real-world consultants would. McManus says she's open to all suggestions, but is most interested in ideas that are both realistic and attainable.
Aside from top honors, there's a secondary benefit for the seniors and juniors: an opportunity to work outside their comfort zones.

Modern Moral Problems addresses moral quandaries that can beguile and confuse faithful Catholics. Written in a question-and-answer format, the book covers questions regarding sexuality, medical ethics, business practices, civic responsibilities, and the sacramental life of the Church. The extraordinary assortment of issues-forming a single, organized collection-is a valuable reference for anyone seeking clear and concise answers to tough moral questions.
Written in a conversational tone often spliced with humor, this work by a highly respected moral theologian will be read with fascination for its clarity of argument and fundamental good sense. Originally published as a monthly question-and-answer column in a magazine for priests, these selections by Msgr. William B. Smith retain a striking current topicality. Msgr. Smith often tackled matters of controversy in the Catholic Church, ones which continue to draw conflicting opinions.
Interesting, informative, and eminently practical, this book conveys an overall impression that sound thinking about morality is rooted in a tradition within the Catholic Church, even when the answers to particular moral questions cannot be found in catechisms or Vatican documents. Msgr. Smith offers a clear-headed approach to the quandaries of our time precisely because of his training in traditional moral principles and his fidelity to the Catholic magisterium.
This book should be in the possession of all seminarians and priests, who are bound to confront moral matters that are not so easily decided at first glance. But lay people, too, will find here rich responses to the challenging and sometimes unresolved moral questions they encounter in their own lives.
Monsignor William B. Smith (1939-2009) was a well-known and highly regarded moral theologian. Ordained for the Archdiocese of New York in 1966, he taught at New York's major seminary for 37 years. A consultant to the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith and a primary advisor to Cardinals Cooke, O'Connor, and Egan in New York, Msgr. Smith also served on ethics committees in a number of New York Catholic hospitals. He wrote numerous articles for theological journals as well as a monthly column in Homiletic and Pastoral Review.
"This posthumous publication of Monsignor Smith's replies to difficult moral questions is both welcome and sorely needed. They retain their original clarity, freshness, and relevance. In these pages Msgr. Smith's legendary wit is evident, alongside his encyclopedic knowledge of magisterial sources and (especially) fin-de-siècle Catholic moral theology. This book is a real, and rare, treat."- Gerard V. Bradley, Professor of Law, University of Notre Dame"Catholics should hold the memory of Monsignor William Smith in benediction. During the uncertain years that followed the Second Vatican Council, William Smith stayed the course of right judgment in matters of morals. Fortunately, Fr. Donald Haggerty has compiled samples of his late teacher's instruction in moral theology. One may still consult with profit the replies Monsignor Smith composed to questions addressed to him from all over the country. Historians of moral theology will find this book a valuable source for documenting the reception that Blessed Pope John Paul II's encyclical letter, Veritatis splendor, received in the United States." - Romanus Cessario, O.P., Saint John's Seminary, Brighton, Massachusetts

Saving Time and Money Tips & Tricks
August 14th 2012 06:49
With bills piling, me adding to our already tremendous medical bills, and somehow taking the last of your money to get my husband to work without allowing us to all starve, it hit me. I need to talk about Saving time and money while being that stay at home mommy. I look back at my previous post of Dangers Of Motherhood and I think I should have put finance at the top of the list. Because the one thing every stay at home mother worries about is money and saving it.
The internet is wonderful when it comes to programs that help you save money, earn points to redeem gift cards, and cash back sites. You have supermarket value cards and just about everyone will you give you a line of credit to get you to shop with them. So how do you sort it all out? What are some of the other tips and tricks I use to save my family money each month? How do I do all of this within my diet restrictions, keeping with nutrition and staying in a budget? Keep reading and I'll let you know!
Coupon SitesYour text goes here
SendEarnings.com allows you to earn points for using their site to download and clip coupons through them. From what I found they have the same coupons available for grocery items that Coupons.com does. You earn the savings of the coupon and you earn 0.10 extra through SendEarnings for using their coupon link. There are other stores you can earn coupons for and so many other offers available as well.
<a Really Long Link
<img Really Long Link border="0" />
MyPoints.com is a shopping site that puts online coupons and deals all in one place! You earn points per dollar spent when using the links through their sites to the coupons. Once you have enough points to redeem gift cards or pre-paid visa cards. It's fun earning 3 points when I shop for Christmas gifts and thing!
UPromise is something a little different than most sites and for that I have fallen in love with it! UPromise has made it so you get up to 2% off when you shop through them, you get up to 8% cash back when you use restaurants in your area or traveling, and the added bonus of grocery e coupons. What I find so neat about UPromise is that you can choose different ways to redeem your cash. You get to choose to put it into a college fund for your kids, save and add interest, can get a check or use the cash to shop online. I have enjoyed this site.
Tips and Tricks To Grocery Shopping
What I have noticed when going grocery shopping is that I make a list and I see some items weekly, biweekly, and monthly. I literally go through the house every time I go shopping and write my list. Even if I have been keeping a list of things we are out of, I still find myself double checking the cabinets and fridge. As I talked about earlier I have had to discover different ways to make my family's dollar stretch and to make the food in the cabinets last as long as possible while making sure my boys get the nutrition they need.
Making a list before going to the store is the number one trick to grocery shopping. The number two trick is going grocery shopping with an empty stomach. I'm sure you have heard these two tricks before and heard them many times over. Now, how often do you actually do it? How often do you end up buying extra because it was on sale when you saw it walking down the isle to an actual list item? I am guilty of them both many times over. So I went on a search online and read how other women were saving money when going grocery shopping. I want to share with you what I am finding that works for me.
Budgeting for Food [Feeding Growing Boys]
I have attempted to budget my grocery bills for a month. Setting out a set amount each week for food and then when it comes time to going to the grocery store I make sure I take my allocated amount in cash. This allows me to stick to my budget and makes me pay attention to price per serving, weather coupons will actually help me save and I can know what a product will cost me each time it is on my list.
Figuring out prices and knowing what stores are cheaper takes a bit of work. I agree it seems a little tedious at times. But after a while it becomes a second nature. One thing I learned while going through school to become a Therapist was that it takes 90 days of an activity to make it a habit. So, for three months make this happen and you wont even notice you do this. Plus, I learned so much about my families finances, where money was going, and what products were eating my dollars alive.
The other thing you need to know when trying to budget for food is how long products last within your home. How often are you buying the product? How often a month depends on what your spending per serving/usage. What I have found is most of the dry goods, cleaning products, and pet supplies are better bought in bulk. How do you figure this out? Simply write a date on the product's packaging when you open it. Read the directions for use or serving suggestions at opening and use them to the best of your ability. Using the directions is something we all take for granted especially when it comes to something like laundry soap or shampoo. Truth is, if you stick to serving size and usage amount the product goes further for you (or you stay within your calorie limit for a day). All that allows you to decide how much you are spending and if you need to make a packaging or size difference.
Examples I found huge differences in were dishwasher detergent, and cat litter. Estimated savings (because it is on going experiments) per month $25.
Dishwasher Detergent story - I have grown attached to those neat little packages of dishwasher soap that dissolve in your dishwasher. They are clean and neat, they are prepackaged to usage size so you don't waste. Right? Well, I discovered something when I choose to go eco friendly products in my home. There is limited eco friendly cleaning supplies out there. I had tried some of the supermarket eco friendly products and I didn't like them much at all. Then, a friend shared a new brand with me and it was even in a neat little packet! I was in love after once use of this product and might I add it was in a neat little package! I even laugh at myself to how addicted to the neat little package of dishwasher soap I was. Through a mishap in ordering I accidentally ordered the powder form of my new favorite soap instead of my neat little packages. When it came in the mail I thought of using the money back guarantee and trading for my favorite packaging but for the same price I was supposed to get 10 more uses. I'm all about saving money now so I made it a challenge to prove the packaging right and get 10 more uses than my neat little packages. Well, the packaging says 46 uses and the directions say to use 1 tbsp per load of dishes. I have played with amount of soap as well, trying to see how well it cleans dishes. More than 1 tbsp and my dishes had soap scum to them. 1 tbsp and my dishes are perfect. As you can see I started it 7/2 and a month later I marked how much I had used. I run the dishwasher one time a day with a family of five at home. 29 uses already for the month of July and maybe a quarter of a box gone. Now that is already showing to be savings.
Cat Litter Story - I hate living in my mom's house and having to put cat litter boxes close to my bedroom or bathroom because cats are picky and know they can make us do what they want. My oldest cat is extremely picky. She has been around me and my husband the longest at 9 years now. She has her favorite everything and deserves her own everything. Cat litter has always been a fight for me partly because of odor so close to where I sleep and partly because my cat is so picky. If she doesn't like the litter brand it goes out on the floor, everywhere. If it needs cleaned she will drag our socks and underwear into the litter box. If there isn't enough litter left in the box to suit her she will pee on our laundry.
My mom uses an all natural, odorless cat litter and when I moved in has pretty much made sure I had this one on hand. She told me because it lasts longer, there is no smell (not even backing soda smell), and it doesn't stick to the bottom of the litter box. I have two cats and 20 lbs lasted me 6 weeks. And my cat never even flung it on the ground. How happy I was. Again, I decide to experiment and I discover how much savings (because it was sold on odor control) it actually gave me. I went and bough the favorite brand of my eldest cat because it was the brand I used all the time. I used three times as much cat litter with my old brand in 6 weeks.
It really is all about multiple methods of money saving that get you the huge savings you see these super moms do on the news reports. It's about knowing what your family does, uses, needs and can actually do and helping it in small steps along the way. I hope to share more savings later down the road. I will always share products that I find a savings in. Beware because I like to experiment with all types of things!
Please feel free to share your money saving sites and tips and tricks!

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of éclos Skin Care for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.
éclos Skin Care is an anti aging skin care line that uses high potency plant based ingredients. ;It helps promote cellular rejuvenation. When I first got this product to review I told my husband – "Why would I need anti-aging skin care products? I am only 29, I don't have wrinkles." Then he reminded me that I was almost 31 and…. So I tried them out and was very impressed.
The company sent me a starter kit which included sample sizes of the following products;
• Facial Cleanser Skin Prep – This is a very nice skin cleaner. It removes make up effortlessly and leaves your skin feeling nice, not dry and tight like other face cleansers.
• Cellular Activator Face Serum – This feels nice on the skin. It's very soothing, especially after being out in the hot sun sweating all day. Using the cleanser and following up with the serum and cream felt SO GOOD on my overheated skin.
• Moisture Therapy Regenerative Cream – This is a very nice cream. It goes on smoothly and feels nice on your skin. I found it soothing too.
• Restorative Eye Cream – It felt nice on my skin and left my skin feeling nice – not tight like eye creams sometimes do.
• Instant Radiance Facial Scrub – You don't need much of this scrub to get the job done. ; It warms your face while you clean which was a sensation I wasn't expecting, but liked.
• Skin Renewal Clay Mask – Unlike other clay masks I've tried in the past this one goes on smooth like a lotion and it dries more evenly than other clay masks. It washes off very easily too.
• éclos Terry Cloth Head Band – Very handy to have. It keeps the hair off your face.
The starter kit retails for $19.99.
What makes éclos unique is that it is made with Apple Stem Cells extracted from a rare Swiss apple which have shown tremendous ability to stimulate skin stem cells, encouraging aging skin to behave like younger skin. Plant extracts, vitamins and anti-oxidants combine with the Apple Stem Cell technology to help minimize the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and tired skin.
I like that they use NATURAL products and not ones that were made made in a jar or tube in a lab. This make up is made WITHOUT Parabens, Sulfates, Synthetic Fragrance, Synthetic Dyes or Petro Chemicals. As far as I'm concerned the closer to 100% natural a product can be the better. None of the products really have much of a scent to them, which is good. You don't need perfume scented facial care products.
I am NOT one to like to have my picture taken, but I snapped a "before" and "after" photo. I'm not sure if you can notice much of a difference because I found it hard to take a photo of my face. Personally I think my skin has a bit more "life" to it – it feels more refreshed, a little softer, and smoother.
One lucky reader gets to win the same set I got to try! To enter just leave a comment below on this post with the item you are most excited to try. Giveaway open to US residents only and ends 6/30/12.

The promise of freshly baked American styled cupcakes lure us to The Boston Cupcakery (TBC), the newly opened dessert joint in Lokhandwala. The store gets its name and its unique flavours with a little help from the Utah-based baker and Cupcake Wars contestant, Erik Larsen and his wife Cori. The reality TV stars spent about five months training the bakers at TBC and designing the special menu.
As we enter the store with a minimalistic rich brown décor, it's the cupcakes beyond the huge glass display that get our attention. Chocolate, vanilla, red velvet, Oreo and rainbow sprinkles – the desserts are a visual treat. Looking at them almost makes you wonder if each of them gets a certificate of approval before they get to the display. Made in the bakery that's just behind the store, that's close enough.
On the recommendation of the friendly staff, we tried the mini Banana Chocolate (Rs 30) and an Apple Cinnamon (Rs 80) cupcake. A hint of banana flavouring in the cake, topped with a smooth chocolate butter cream, the Banana Chocolate cupcake has the perfect balance of sweetness. And if we could imagine heaven on earth, we're pretty sure it would look like the Apple Cinnamon cupcake. Chunks of cinnamon spiced apples buried in the soft, moist and fluffy cake and light butter cream dusted with cinnamon powder – this sweet and spicy delight was a clear winner for us.
The Red Velvet and Black Cherry, both priced at Rs 80, somehow failed toimpress us. The popular red dessert lacked a distinctive taste; it could have been a regular classic cupcake with butter cream for all we know. A bit of moderately sweet black cherry preserve stuffed into the centre of a regular cupcake didn't exactly make us want to pledge us undying love to it. The fresh Strawberry cupcake (Rs 80) with flavoured butter cream on the other hand was fruity and toothsome. TBC's trademark moist and airy style cake, filled with fresh Strawberry preserve and a generous amount of butter cream to top it made this one a sweet affair.
We couldn't leave without indulging the chocoholic in us, now could we? The Hazelnut flavoured cupcake oozing with Nutella in every bite has become our new go-to comfort food. We only wish it wasn't so heavy, and then we wouldn't have to share.
Our stuffed tummies protested at the thought of trying some more flavours and this time around, we gave in. With a promise to be back for some more of the Apple Cinnamon awesomeness and to try out new interesting flavours (we're intent on sampling the Trail Mix and Boston Cream Pie), we left TBC with our sweet tooth fully satisfied.
Must try: Apple Cinnamon cupcake, Hazelnut Cupcake, Banana Chocolate Cupcake

Turn Off the TV
by Dominick A.K.A. "spwaver", TradingTheCharts.com | May 5, 2008Print
Last week�s tape is evidence of how many traders let the news get to their head, got faked out by the post-Fed selloff, and were short stocks after the meeting only to be forced to cover later in the week, sparking a rally that now has much of Wall Street bullish on stocks. But, after having pounded the table about being long above 1256, which remember was the must-hold big picture target number that had us buying the bottom during the MLK holiday hedge fund blowup and again on the retest, the widespread feelings that it's now time get into the market has us instead eyeing the exits.
Most traders, if they were able to filter out the noise and focus on charts, probably still did what they were trained to do: sell every trendline, Fibonacci retrace, divergence and moving average that appeared to suggest at least an intermediate term top in stocks. TTC, on the other hand, is proof you can do things differently.
A perfect example of how TTC members eschew the news and old techniques that must motivate so many of the losing trades on Wall Street, is our recent analysis leading into the April Federal Reserve meeting. While the majority of traders attempted to guess at what the Fed's policy statement would say and how the market might react, we started the week with a firm wave pattern idea that simultaneously gave us targets on the long and short sides, as well as stops and limits for the trade. With a bit of careful money management, another important concern to TTC members, we were able to turn Fed day into a winning day with a strategy based in no way on fundamental analysis or news. The chart below shows the results of the idea posted above.
To guide us for the remainder of the week, notice the chart above anticipates the possibility of both a decline into previous support, or trades to the long side if higher levels could be held. TTC members were advised to cover shorts on Wednesday as the sudden afternoon selloff from our much expected diagonal moved into our 1387.50 number.
Though the wave count was quite obscured by the volatility surrounding the Fed meeting, with the market feeling comfortable trading above our crucial 1360 pivot level, we were compelled to keep our eyes on the long side of the trade. The chart below, comparing the three major U.S. indices, kept us honest in our expectations and prevented TTC members from being short too soon into what proved to be a significant gap up open Friday morning.
Of course, the other major headline of the week was the reversal in the euro, something this update has called attention to for at least the past several weeks. After recently keeping members from shorting what at first glance may have appeared to be the big reversal, members tracked the diagonal pattern below, with a well-defined target fully expected to provide the fireworks finally seen this week.
It didn't phase members knowing this diagonal idea cut against the grain of Wall Street consensus when first posted, as the dollar floundered in a morass of declining interest rates and economic expectations. Monitoring recognized levels that would invalidate the count, we knew a euro reversal would have repercussions for a wide range of markets, including the S&P 500 and precious metals.
Now that the euro has moved into the target for its selloff, consensus has shifted to trades exploiting dollar strength. Basing our outlook on our charts alone, we actually expect a tradable bounce, or something bigger, in the euro that will once again catch many off guard.
The reversal in the euro comes as the broad stock index reached considerable resistance which our proprietary trend following system, used by members on a daily, weekly and intraday timeframe, has been signaling emphasizing as a crucial make-or-break area. Ironically, market sentiment has become overwhelmingly bullish, but we continue to believe that the most important pivotal level going forward from here is in the vicinity of the 1440 area, and that price action from that level will give us the correct count for the major markets on a weekly time frame. Certainly, both bulls and bears will be fighting it out in the month of May and the winner will take all.
Also making headlines as stocks rally on dollar strength and euro weakness, is the selloff in gold, part of what many are calling the end of the commodities boom.
Gold in particular is getting much of
Not only does the Elliott wave count in the chart above foresee new highs in gold over the coming year, the weakness since the March highs has as a distinctly corrective look about it. A significant retracement from recent lows would corroborate the count above and fit nicely with our expectations for the euro. For more, refer to Joe�s Precious Points weekly update.

The Gospel is not just the gracious work of God that begins our spiritual life. The Gospel is the salvation of God that sustains and grows our spiritual lives throughout our earthly days and for all eternity. In fact, this Sunday we will rejoice once again that the Gospel is more than merely the good news of the forgiveness of our sins and a right relationship with God.

Few people expected Oceania champions Auckland City to progress very far at the FIFA Club World Cup UAE 2009. Indeed, many observers predicted an early exit for the New Zealand side when they came up against the host country's representatives Al Ahli in the opening match of the tournament. Coach Paul Posa and his troops had evidently failed to read the script though, and promptly beat the UAE side 2-0 to set up a quarter-final clash with Atlante.
Though the Mexican outfit proved too strong for the brave New Zealanders, running out 3-0 winners, that loss still lined Auckland City up for a fifth place play-off against African champions TP Mazembe. Another surprise victory, this time 3-2, saw the side from the North Island secure the highest-ever finish by a New Zealand team in the history of the tournament.
From the moment they arrived in Abu Dhabi, Posa and his players were confident they would do well in the competition and that the experience of playing in Japan in 2006 would stand them in good stead.
Posa, who is a dentist in his day job, spoke of the benefit of that experience: "Our first appearance at the Club World Cup was in 2006 and it proved very useful for us as we learned a lot from that tournament. We weren't fully prepared for it, whereas this year we've made sure we had the best possible preparations. We've also learned a lot this time around. We wanted to improve and it has been a fantastic tournament for us. The lessons we've learned have made us a better team."
Striker Jason Hayne, meanwhile, was quick to point out that "Finishing fifth is an achievement in itself. To get the chance to play against top class players is wonderful. As an amateur side, things are a bit different in New Zealand. We work a 40-hour week and then have to train on top of that. Playing against Atlante was very important as we now know the level we need to reach and we've taken a lot from that game."
The 28-year-old forward struck three times in three games and is understandably delighted with that return. Now he is hungry for more: "We've played in this tournament twice now and we all want to come back for a third time and play here next year. We've set ourselves that target because you don't often get the chance to play at such a high level and it's brilliant when you do."
The scorer of the winning goal against TP Mazembe, Riki Van Steeden said that he didn't expect such a thrilling climax: "Football is an amazing game. There I was sitting on the bench feeling left out. Then I came on as a substitute and scored from my only chance. That was very exciting for me." He added, "We're still some distance away from reaching the necessary standard and have a long way to go before we're able to compete at this level. Playing against teams like Atlante has taught us a huge lesson and we aim to reach this standard and that's the most important thing we'll take away from this tournament."

Pretty Little Liars
The PLL Girls Share Their Workout Routines
The Pretty Little Liars girls are in such good shape and we want to know their secrets! They've always been gorgeous, but they slimmed down since filming the first season. They explained that it's from lots of exercising, but they've managed to have fun while staying fit.
Lucy Hale (Aria) tries to stick to an exercise routine and told Examiner, "When you're filming it's kind of crazy since you don't know the hours, but I've recently started working with a trainer that I really love. I also love pilates and running." But going to the gym isn't the only way to exercise. Lucy also enjoys hiking in the Canyons with her maltipoo Jack.
Shay Mitchell (Emily) is extremely athletic, which helps her keep her fabulous figure. She told Seventeen, "I'm pretty adventurous. I love riding my bike from Venice to Santa Montica and doing that whole beach/boardwalk route. Also, they have this outdoor jungle gym in Santa Monica, and there are these huge, long ropes — I feel like they are like 30 feet, maybe a little bit more — and you climb them using nothing but your arms and legs." But that's not all. Shay enjoys cardio dance classes and works with a trainer several times a week. She confesses, "Just knowing that you have to work out because he's there waiting for you also helps."
Troian Bellisario (Spencer) is naturally thin, but eating healthy helps her stay that way. She explains, "It's really important for me to know where my food came from and what kind of impact it's making on the environment. I've never really been a junk food person." Besides eating right, Troian likes to go hiking in LA's Griffith Park and go on bike rides with her boyfriend.
Ashley Benson (Hanna) is more of a gym girl and told Examiner that she enjoys Pilates, kickboxing, and doing bar method. Being active is no problem for her since she's so energetic.

Tributes to head gardener killed in Limpley Stoke accident
Posted: April 03, 2012|
Tributes have been paid to a 67-year-old man who was killed in an industrial accident in Limpley Stoke.
Alistair George Hislop, from Bradford on Avon, was head gardener at the Conkwell Grange Estate and died after being run over by a tractor last week.
The owner of the estate Alan Fosler said Mr Hislop had started working there when he was just 14 and that everyone had been left "devastated" by what had happened.
It is understood that he was unloading a trailer attached to an agricultural tractor, when the vehicle started rolling away and he tried to jump into it.
However, he fell under the wheels and was pronounced dead at the scene.
Mr Fosler said: "Alistair has worked for our family for over 25 years and has worked at the Conkwell Grange Estate for a total of over 50 years.
"Sadly the accident that took Alistair from us has devastated us all. My family and the staff here at Conkwell Grange cannot express the loss we feel of such a valued employee, colleague and friend. Alistair has worked here establishing the gardens to the standard that you see today and was passionate about his work.
"He had an encyclopaedic mind on horticulture and the house and gardens are an expression of his hard work and creativeness.
"The greenhouses are full of these seasons' plants and the gardens are looking magnificent.
"He knew everything there was to know about the estate, being here many years before my family and I arrived in 1985. He started working here at the age of about 14 years as an apprentice gardener, taking the reins when he showed a unique ability to make things grow and flourish.
"The gardens and friendships he developed here are the legacy of this quiet and kind man, who we will miss so much."
Wiltshire Police confirmed that the accident happened at 4.12pm last Wednesday and that they were helping the Health and Safety Executive with their inquiries.

If your Cinco De Mayo celebration ended on Seis De Mayo, there is a good chance you weren't too happy to see the bright rays of the sun this morning. That being said, our bet is that you probably made sure that your sunglasses were already on before you walked out the door. Whether it is because you are trying to stop the pounding in your head, or just trying to avoid a morning glare, a quality pair of sunglasses is an absolute necessity. If you are in need of a new pair of everyday shades, take a look at the Harpoon ($149-$249) by Costa Del Mar.
With nylon frames that are "virtually indestructible", the Harpoons are a perfect choice if you have a history of being tough on your sunglasses. Unlike some on the market, these can truly stand up to almost anything. With two frame colors (black and tortoise), and fourteen lens options, you can basically tailor a pair to your exact needs with just a few clicks of a mouse. While it may be easy to just pick something that you think looks awesome (like the tortoise frames paired with green mirror 580G lenses shown if you're in the Caribbean), we highly recommend using Costa's lens finder to find just the right pair. No matter what you end up with, you will have a high quality pair of sunglasses that are sure to last you for years to come.

From Cover to Cover: 20 Years of African Voices
Program Locations:
Danny Simmons, the founder of Rush Philanthropic Arts Foundation, is the curator for the exhibition, 20 Years of African Voices. Artwork from the magazine's front and back covers will anchor the exhibition. Photo essays and other archival pieces will give viewers a historical perspective on African Voices' 20-year celebration of Black art and literature.
Marilyn Nance's photographs documenting the African burial ground and Chester Higgins, Jr.'s stunning image of the late dance choreographer Katherine Dunham, give viewers a chance to glimpse inside the magazine's covers. Michele Stewart's haunting black and white sketch showing four pairs of girl legs sitting in a church pew holding hymn books captures the horror of poet Letta Simone-Nefertari Neely's "Which patent leather shoe belong to which found leg." The poem is dedicated to the four girls murdered in the 1963 church bombing in Birmingham, Alabama. The illustration masterfully shows the young girls living—one with a band aide on her knee—but their heads are not in the drawing, a visual sign that something unspeakable is amiss.
The exhibition will feature a diverse selection of the journal's cover artists, such as Faith Ringgold, Otto Neals, Justin Bua, Francks Deceus, James Top, Elizabeth Catlett and Verna Hart. The front and back cover artists have established a unique visual vocabulary for the magazine's iconic literary style.

The Power Wheels Dune Racer is a cool pretend play vehicle for fantasy off-roading play. This dune racer is sturdy and rugged, and is a lot of fun for children to ride around in and play with. The Power Wheels Dune Racer is a cool looking off-roading style vehicle for young children. It has an incredibly realistic look, with an open cockpit and a sturdy steel frame and some flashy chrome accents. A set of rugged tires helps this play vehicle motor around a back yard with ease. There's even a pair of seat belts, but just for pretend since the top speed is about 5 miles per hour.
For beginners, though, there's a slower speed of 2.5 miles per hour, and the shifter can be set to lock to that speed for safety reasons. The vehicle can also be set to go in reverse. This dune racer was designed to be incredibly rugged, with a Monster Traction drive system that can handle common conditions like gravel, ruts, wet grass, and mud. And power lock brakes make sure that stopping is never a problem.
Where the engine compartment would be on an adult's dune buggy is actually a secret storage compartment where children can store whatever they like. Or they can open it up and pretend to fix the engine. This fun toy is sure to be a great hit with children who are always on the go.

I know what shape I am. I am a square. I often try to be round, but I am uneasy with it. Round slips away from you easily. Squares are positive and strong, you know where you are with a square.
I have been working with architecture as my inspiration for many years. I am now focusing on the standing house and the wall. I find that each building or wall that one encounters, is imbedded with the lives of the people who inhabit them. I try to recreate this feeling in my walls.
I believe that there is no necessity to force change upon ones work. The joys and sorrows are impacted on our work as we live them, and are there for all the world to see.
The work is kiln formed at high temperatures and eased with heat into individually designed stainless steel moulds.
These walls and houses can stand alone but gain strength by being grouped together in twos, threes, fours.
One is born an artist. It is usually obvious from an early age. So I began drawing at three and became a potter long after.
I exhibited and studied ceramics and glass in Australia and overseas. I was a member of the Potters Society of Australia and exhibited ceramic sculpture widely. I taught weekend workshops in ceramics for the Arts Council of NSW flying to many country areas.
In 1981 I received my Post Graduate Diploma in Profession Art Studies at Alexander Mackie CAE. Sydney.
However, while working with ceramics I discovered glass and commenced my studies at the Glass Department at the Australian National Universiry School of Art. I travelled to USA after graduating with an Associate Diploma in glass in 1985, to study at Pilchuck International Glass School outside Seattle, and travelling in USA to all parts "glass".
I work and exhibit glass constantly, more it would seem, overseas. My work is kiln formed and sculptural. My inspiration is "the house" and all things architectural. I depict houses and large walls in glass, and I am teetering on the edge of combining glass and metal at this moment !
My work is in many private collections and Art Museums nationally and Internationally. To mention only three, Australian National Gallery Canberra; Kunstmuseum; Dusseldorf, Germany and the Corning Glass Museum, New York.

May 7, 2005
WORCESTER, Mass. - Senior forward John Hurley (South Boston, Mass.) and senior guard Greg Kinsey (Hatboro, Pa.), members of the Holy Cross men's basketball team, are the 2004-2005 recipients of the Richard J. Maloney Award. The award was presented at the 51st Annual Varsity Club Dinner, held at the Hogan Campus Center on Saturday, May 7.
The Maloney Award has been presented annually to the men's basketball team's most valuable player since 1981. This year marks only the second time that two players have shared the award, as Rick Mashburn and Bill Walker both received the honor in 1993.
Hurley led the team with an average of 6.0 rebounds per game this season, in addition to averaging 7.9 points 1.1 assists and 1.0 steals per contest, and shooting 47.5 percent from the floor. Kinsey averaged 5.3 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.0 steals per game on the year, while hitting 35.2 percent of his shots from three-point range.
The Crusaders finished the 2004-2005 campaign with an overall record of 25-7, while advancing to the second round of the National Invitation Tournament. Holy Cross also won the Patriot League regular season title with a 13-1 mark in conference games.

Wright State University Staff Council Minutes
Wednesday, March 9, 2011
The WSU Staff Council met on Wednesday, March 9, 2011, at 2:00 pm, in Room 267 University Hall.
Present: Council Members: George Collins, Mary Healea, Joanie Hendricks, Fran Keeley, Liane Muhlenkamp, Jacqueline Neal, Curt Pederson, Wendy Riddell (for Kary Brigger),Vickie Slone,
and Rebecca Traxler
Convener: Albert Bondurant
Guests: Henry Limouze, Associate Provost for Faculty and Staff Affairs
Tony Linz, Employee Benefits Manager, Human Resources
1. Dependent Care Verification Information
Tony Linz distributed copies of his presentation and spoke about the upcoming Dependent Verification process requiring that all WSU employees verify eligibility of dependents listed on their health care plans. Wright State has selected HMS Employer Solutions (HMS) as the vendor to conduct this program. HMS will try to make this process as painless as possible for all employees. Human Resources (HR) will have a link to HMS on their website.
Wright State has 1600 employees with 3500 dependents enrolled in their health care plan. A communication about this process will go out the end of next week to these employees. The first phase of this process is the Voluntary Reporting Phase, which allows employees with ineligible dependents the opportunity to remove them from coverage with no questions asked.
The second phase is the Verification Phase which requires those employees with enrolled dependents to provide proof of eligibility. Tony said that employees will be able to mail in or fax copies of their evidence of eligibility (birth certificates, marriage certificates, etc.) to HMS. HMS will then send back a postcard to announce receipt of the information.
Vickie Slone said that HR should also track future changes in dependents' status. Future new hires will also have to verify their enrolled dependents. Tony will ask that our questions be added to the HMS FAQ.
2. Ohio Senate Bill 5
Henry Limouze distributed copies of a summary of Ohio Senate Bill 5, The Public Employees' Collective Bargaining Law, as passed by the Senate. The bill is changing every day. This is all uncharted territory.
Henry said that since Wright State faculty share in governance, they are considered management. As the bill stands now, only faculty salary can be a subject of collective bargaining, not benefits or workload. If you belong to a union, the legislature has the final say.
The bill requires merit-based pay for most public employees. It also states that employees pay 15% of the cost of health care. Henry said that WSU may need to help those at lower pay to cover this. It removes consideration of seniority and length of Service, by itself, from decisions regarding a reduction in work force of certain public employees. Henry said not to panic; we will work through this collegially.
3. Information RE: Early Separation Incentive Stats
Albert Bondurant distributed a revised summary of the Participant Analysis from the Early Separation Incentive Program including replacements as of 10/10/10. This info came from Matt Filipic, Senior Vice President for Business and Fiscal Affairs.
4. 2008 USAC/CSAC Staff Survey Recommendations
Jacqui Neal distributed a Rating Scale of the status of recommendations from the 2008 Staff Survey, which was a follow-up to the 2006 Survey. She asked Staff Council to look at the last two pages which list the recommendations and mark them as In Progress, Action Completed, and/or Further Action Needed. She is also going to have all Unclassified Staff Advisory Council (USAC) members fill this out.
5. Performance Management Process/Annual Appraisal
Albert handed out draft Performance Appraisal Forms for staff-non-supervisory and for staff-supervisor/leader. He asked Staff Council members to review the forms and provide input to him by March 15. There will be a WSU Leadership Academy program on Performance Management (The Performance Appraisal: An Obligation) offered later in March for anyone with staff reporting to them.
Albert also distributed a sheet of numbers and statistics regarding Performance Appraisals submitted to HR vs. Total Number of Staff Members (FT & PT) – over the last five years. On average, over the last five years, only 47% of the staff at WSU have received Annual Performance Appraisals. Albert suggested that this statistic be made known and that a President's or Provost's letter be sent out to encourage supervisors to complete evaluations. Albert also suggested that HR should (for this year only) be contacted to request an extension of the submission deadline (typically communicated by HR) to the end of April.
Liane Muhlenkamp, from WSU-Lake Campus, said that evaluations of all staff are required there. Liane also mentioned that Lake Campus was involved in a 'pilot' program from HR in the recent past that centered on an 'electronic' Performance Appraisal process (Performance Impact), however, most users found it difficult to use and time-consuming. Henry indicated that the 'pilot' program was discontinued when budget cuts were made in the past.
Henry pointed out that in some organizations, supervisors must submit evaluations of their staff before they receive their own salary increases. Albert said that the finalized version of the form will be 'electronic' for ease of use. Albert also said that employees may be able to evaluate their supervisors in the future (360 degree feedback). Whether this form becomes THE form for WSU, or not, will be decided in the future. At the least, it will be A form to use.
Henry pointed out that on page 5 of the draft appraisal form, there is a block that employees can check indicating that the appraisal was discussed with them by their supervisor and that they were given the opportunity to provide input prior to the form being finalized and submitted to Human Resources. There are also blocks to check indicating if the employee agrees or disagrees with the statements within the appraisal. Henry thinks these are good ideas, because they will become part of the record. He and Albert welcome any thoughts, comments, and suggestions on the draft appraisal form.
6. Workplace Violence Policy
The Workplace Violence Policy is being reviewed and discussed by Albert Bondurant, Executive Director of Organizational Development and Learning; Allan Boggs, Assistant Vice President for Human Resources; Amber Vlasnik, Director of the Women's Center; Juanita Wehrle-Einhorn, Director of Affirmative Action Programs; and Henry Limouze. Rebecca Traxler is the CSAC rep on this committee. Juanita has suggested splitting the policy to create a separate policy on bullying.
7. We Serve U
It was announced that there will be a We Serve U one-mile fitness walk on May 18, 2011, with tee shirts and lapel pins given out. Other events include a Bio Cleanup, help with collection and packaging of items to be sent to the military for the Blue Star Mothers, holding a raffle for Hospice of Dayton, and helping on Move-in Day on campus. Liane said that they are doing similar things at Lake Campus for various places in the local community.
The We Serve U project is an agenda item on the Board of Trustees Meeting in June 2011.
CSAC and USAC reps will attend the OSCHE meetings together and split the cost each year.
The meeting was adjourned at 3:35 pm. The next meeting of the WSU Staff Council will be held on Wednesday, May 25, 2011, at 2:30-4:00 pm, in Room 267 UH.

HIVE catalog issue with ODBC
Login to create new topics or reply. | New User Registration
This topic contains 0 replies, has 1 voice, and was last updated by Radosław Stankiewicz 1 year, 10 months ago.
I have successfully installed odbc driver on my w7 32bit machine.
I can browse through schema (table names, column description), but when it comes to sql query (for example from Microsoft Query), I got errors.
Driver automatically adds catalog name and it is not accepted by hive/hive server. UserGuide (http://hortonworks.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/Hortonworks-Hive-ODBC-Driver-User-Guide.pdf) sais that it is normal..
my query:
select * from foo
driver query (captured with wireshark)
select foo.id from HIVE.default.foo foo
error thrown by hive server/hive:
error code: '40000'
error message: 'Error while processing statement: FAILED: ParseExeption line: 2:17 cannot recognize input near '.' 'foo' 'foo' in table source
my conclusions:
1) odbc knows the structure, reads it properly, changes * to column name.
2) hive server and CLI don't undersand HIVE prefix before schema name.
3) same error occurs with manual query (select foo.id from HIVE.default.foo foo) in CLI
any configuration changes on server side needed?

By Jim GaramoneAmerican Forces Press Service
AT SEA ABOARD THE USNS COMFORT, Jan. 19, 2010 Mill Etienne was 5 years old when his family fled Haiti in 1981 to escape the violence of the Duvalier regime.
Now, Navy Lt. Cmdr. (Dr.) Mill Etienne is returning to the island nation to help Haiti in its hour of need.
Etienne is a neurologist aboard the USNS Comfort, which sailed from Baltimore Jan. 16 and is expected to arrive in Haiti later this week. The Yale and Columbia-trained physician is helping his fellow medical professionals understand Haiti and Haitians before they begin treating them aboard the ship.
"Basically, the crew will be much better received if they are educated on Haitian history, Haitian culture and also know some Haitian language," Etienne said to reporters traveling aboard the Comfort. The commander is being helped by 14 other members of the crew who also are from Haiti.
He is putting together instructions for the doctors, nurses and corpsmen aboard the vessel, as well as a Haitian "word of the day" for the medical professionals.
The relief effort is personal to the commander. He still has close family and many friends living in Haiti, and they have been affected by the earthquake. One of his cousins was buried in the rubble of the Hotel Montana in the Haitian capital of Port-au-Prince, but was brought out alive after two days. Many family friends still have not been found, Etienne said, and he fears they are dead.
Reports out of Port-au-Prince are dire. Government estimates of the death toll are now up to 200,000. An estimated 150,000 people are injured, and another 1.5 million are homeless.
One fundamental of medical care is communication, Etienne said. Cultural understanding will help that process, and the communication must be two ways, he added. "The patients must understand that they have a choice," he said. "Everything must be explained to the patient, and then they make the choice. I know we're doing a service and giving aid to this country, but they are still people who have a choice, and I'm going to make sure that happens."
Haitians are fighters and have a lot of pride, Etienne said, and Americans need to understand that pride.
"I'm grateful that my mother and father moved from Haiti when they did," he said. "I'm grateful for the wonderful education that I received in the United States. And I'm particularly proud and honored that this time while serving the United States, I'm going back to serve Haiti – two countries that I've grown to know and love throughout my life. This time, I'm on a mission serving both."
