Exelon Nuclear's Braidwood Generating Station resumed generating electricity on Oct. 31 at 9:20 p.m. (central time) for Illinois consumers and businesses after a scheduled refueling and maintenance outage was completed successfully.
BRACEVILLE, Ill. (Nov. 1, 2009) – Exelon Nuclear's Braidwood Generating Station resumed generating electricity on Oct. 31 at 9:20 p.m.(central time) for Illinois consumers and businesses after a scheduled refueling and maintenance outage was completed successfully. The refueling outage began Oct. 11.
"During this outage, workers replaced about one-third of the uranium fuel. They also completed a large number of equipment maintenance tasks and upgrades that will ensure Unit 2 continues to provide electricity that emits virtually no greenhouse gases," said Amir Shahkarami, Braidwood site vice president.
Employees and supplemental workers performed more than 10,000 inspection and maintenance activities on various components of the plant. Many of the activities performed during the outage cannot be done while the unit is operating, and all are designed to ensure the continued safe and reliable operation of the plant.
More than 1,500 additional workers were on-site to support the outage. The outage provided temporary employment opportunities for local trade professionals and others who travel to Braidwood from outside the area.
"These additional workers provided a benefit to the economy, as they stayed at regional hotels and ate at local restaurants," said Shahkarami. "The Braidwood team is also very appreciative of our local neighbors who have dealt with the increase in traffic at our site over the past few weeks."
During the 19 day outage, Braidwood Unit 1 continued to supply electricity to Exelon customers.
Braidwood Generating Station is approximately 60 miles southwest of Chicago. The station's two nuclear energy units can produce a total of more than 2,300 megawatts at full power - enough electricity to power more than 2 million homes.
Exelon Corporation is one of the nation's largest electric utilities with approximately $19 billion in annual revenues. The company has one of the industry's largest portfolios of electricity generation capacity, with a nationwide reach and strong positions in the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic. Exelon distributes electricity to approximately 5.4 million customers in northern Illinois and southeastern Pennsylvania and natural gas to approximately 485,000 customers in the Philadelphia area. Exelon is headquartered in Chicago and trades on the NYSE under the ticker EXC.

Ashes 2013: Is England's batting a worry for Australia series?
On the face of it, all the pre-Ashes problems belong to Australia.
A last-minute change of coach, a bar-room punch-up and a captain with a dodgy back have left the Baggy Greens as big underdogs for the first time in a generation.
England, though, have issues of their own to address when the contest for the urn begins at Trent Bridge on Wednesday, 10 July.
Since the beginning of 2012, a year that started with England on top of the world Test rankings, the Ashes holders have repeatedly struggled to post match-winning first-innings totals, an aspect of their game that was previously so strong in their climb to number one.
Players selected to bat in England's top seven from summer 2009 to summer 2011:
- Andrew Strauss
- Alastair Cook
- Ravi Bopara (above)
- Kevin Pietersen
- Paul Collingwood
- Matt Prior
- Andrew Flintoff
- Ian Bell
- Jonathan Trott
- Michael Carberry
- Eoin Morgan
- Stuart Broad
- Tim Bresnan
*excluding night-watchmen
Indeed, in the time between the last home Ashes series, a 2-1 victory in 2009, and the 4-0 win over India in 2011 that confirmed England as the world's best, they were posting average first-innings scores of 412.
However, over the past 18 months and in a run that has seen England win only three of their last seven series, that average has fallen to 323, a drop of almost 100 runs.
"If you're getting bowled out for 323, the opposing team know they don't need many to get in the game," said former England captain Michael Vaughan.
"That gives the opposition more confidence and puts more stress onto your bowlers. It's all about scoreboard pressure."
The batting dip has had just that effect on the performance of England's attack.
Whereas the period 2009-11 saw them dismissing the opposition for an average score of 297, the last year and a half has seen that rise to 336.
Coupled with the batting effort, England have gone from earning an average first-innings lead of 115 to conceding a deficit of 13.
"I wouldn't like it to be that way," England batting coach Graham Gooch told BBC Sport.
"You want to be putting sizeable totals on the board in order to give your bowlers the opportunity to win the match. We need to improve on that."
England could justifiably point to some mitigating factors. Latterly, more of their Test matches have been played away from home against stronger bowling units.
The spell between 2009-11 included home and away series against an Australia team in transition and the perennially poor Bangladesh, while England also hosted India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka, whose bowlers often struggle outside the subcontinent.
By contrast, their schedule from the beginning of last year has included trips to play all three of Asia's strongest sides, as well as hosting a powerful South Africa team.
Yet that does not explain the collective dip in form of all four of the batsmen to have most regularly lined up for England since Australia last toured.
Alastair Cook's average over the two time periods fell from 57.35 to 47.31, Jonathan Trott from 57.79 to 42.45, Kevin Pietersen 50.45 compared with 42.15 and, most dramatically, Ian Bell's slide was from 72.25 to 32.07.
Furthermore, England struggled on the flat pitches of New Zealand earlier this year and even lost their first seven wickets for 212 in the Ashes warm-up game against Essex.
"We played on some result pitches in India, but in New Zealand they were very flat pitches and we twice got bowled out for low scores," said Gooch, England's record run-scorer with 8,900 in 118 Tests.
"The hundreds and big scores have been there but you want to maintain consistency. We had a very good series against India in 2011 and we want to re-establish that consistency."
Consistency, or the lack of it, explains the regular tinkering of England's batting line-up since the trip to play Pakistan in the UAE at the beginning of 2012, shuffling that has continued right up to the eve of the Ashes.
During their ascent to the top of the world rankings, the team led by Andrew Strauss barely altered a top seven of him, Cook, Trott, Pietersen, Bell, Paul Collingwood and Matt Prior.
England's likely Ashes batsmen
However, since Collingwood's retirement in 2011, England have handed middle-order opportunities to Eoin Morgan, Jonny Bairstow, Ravi Bopara, Samit Patel, Joe Root and James Taylor.
Root is the only one of those names to have nailed down a place in the side and his success has led the England management to push him up the order to open, with Nick Compton looking set to lose his place when the squad for the Trent Bridge Test is announced on Saturday.
Of course, England's recent failings may count for little against the Aussies.
After all, we have been led to believe that the tourists are in disarray and England need only to turn up and toss the coin in order to retain the urn.
The statistics, however, beg to differ. During England's 18 months of mixed performances, Australia's batsmen have been in the sort of form that took their oldest enemy to the rankings summit.
Against similar opponents to England - both sides were beaten at home by South Africa, England won in India compared to the Aussies' 4-0 humiliation - Michael Clarke's side have been registering average first-innings scores of 412 with the bat while conceding 327 with the ball.
And, despite replacing coach Micky Arthur with Darren Lehmann, banning opener David Warner for punching Root in a Birmingham bar and being without a settled batting order during their time in England, the Aussie batsmen impressed against Somerset before hitting Worcestershire all around New Road.
"There is a drastic margin between the runs Australia and England have been scoring," said Vaughan, who captained England to victory in the 2005 Ashes.
"We've all been talking about this Australia line-up not having a great top seven. The stats prove that they can get big scores."
And that is where the Ashes may be won and lost. In a contest between two sides whose bowling attacks are stronger than their batting line-ups, the team that can post imposing totals will take the upper hand.
"Our players know that one of the disciplines of Test match batting is to bat long," concluded Gooch.
"They have to set their stall out to build an innings in the old-fashioned way and we need to improve on that if we are going to put pressure on the opposition.
"You have to put runs on the board in order to win Test matches. That's the goal we'll be working to over the next couple of months."

If you look at long term averages; the top English batsmen should be scoring a standard 380 runs an innings between then, leaving 4 bowlers to get them over 400 and up to 500. Less than this is below par.
Comment number 113. Posted by Marcuson 6 Jul 2013 06:53
Play 6 batsmen and 4 bowlers and we will be fine. Nothing frustrates me more than playing 5 batsmen in a test match. It leaves us way too open to a(nother) damaging collapse. The old adage "if 4 bowlers cant get the job done, then the 5th wont either" still holds true.
Comment number 112. Posted by Gowers great Tiger Moth incidenton 6 Jul 2013 00:08
From 2012 to present Bell's averaged 30 with 1 century in 20 tests. These mediocre performances should not be tolerated. The guy has been a passenger for too long.
I would not select Bell. He really needs to deliver.
Comment number 111. Posted by tarangoeson 5 Jul 2013 22:23
Too much analysis leads to paralysis.
We have now had various BBC articles from England's vulnerability in the batting and bowling (e.g. Swan's susceptibility to injury) to Australia being "all over the place" to Australia may pull together and give England a shock, to England being invincible ...
Comment number 110. Posted by oxshottphilon 5 Jul 2013 21:25
Test cricket is not a sprint; it's a distance race. Accumulation is the key; not trying to clear the outfield. One or two need to graft whilst learning the craft of building an innings. Treat good balls with respect. Treat bad balls with distain. Whatever you do, don't give it away. Make the opposition take ten wickets. Get this right and the big scores will follow again.
Comment number 109. Posted by jon martinon 5 Jul 2013 21:21
@106 Olly, I agree with your point on Bell. If he clicks, then Australia are in trouble. But that is a huge 'if', he is so flaky. Plus it also assumes the rest of the batting order performs to par, never a given.
Disagree with Compton. Bairstow every time.
Comment number 108. Posted by SirGeoffreysMumon 5 Jul 2013 21:05
What's pulled England's innings totals down this last two years is the lower order, not top 7. 8-9-10 (usually Broad Bresnan Swann) are not scoring half the runs they used to.
Comment number 107. Posted by ADM1406on 5 Jul 2013 20:36
@106 Re "Balance is the key": you may have inadvertently hit the nail on the head there. I don't believe that Bairstow, Morgan, Patel or Bopara are good enough (I'll reserve judgement on Taylor for now), so I'd have Gary Balance in the squad when we go to Australia in the winter. His FC record is very good, he seems to have a good temperament & no serious technical flaws.
Comment number 106. Posted by TH14 Legendon 5 Jul 2013 19:06
The two B's (Bell & Bairstow) would seem to be the weak link at the moment in the England side, and improvements by them i think will see an England series victory.
'Balance is key' but between Bairstow and Compton i'm not sure which i rather have, probably just Compton
Comment number 105. Posted by Rene Artoison 5 Jul 2013 17:43
I've been guilty of slating Bopara over the last few years, but this season he has looked a much better and more focused player. In the past he has batted at 3, which has been a graveyard for English batsmen until Trott came in and made the place his own. Perhaps Bopara at 6 might be a better option than Bairstow, and also gives us a 5th bowling option.
Comment number 104. Posted by SheikhMohammedon 5 Jul 2013 17:17
101. Agreed, everyone says we got battered by SA but in fact we had a first innings lead in two of the three games. The fact that had to bat second in those matches is what to our major disadvantage
Comment number 103. Posted by Brightyon 5 Jul 2013 15:45
Am I the only one wondering if Bairstow or Compton are more likely to score most runs across the series?? Root we all hope will get runs as opener or number 6 in the order - so will be selected. I'm not sure that Compton (with 2 Test centuries) is not a better bet than Bairstow (no Test centuries yet)?!?!
Comment number 102. Posted by woodyon 5 Jul 2013 15:26
We pay for this rubbish? Cook's Test average 43 at end of '09 Ashes series in England, 47.5 at end of series in Australia in 2011, now 49. Pietersen's avg was 50 in '09 vs 48 in '11 and 49 now. Bell 40 in '09, 44 in '11 and now almost 46. Trott down from 60 in '11 to 50 now. So Cook and Bell's averages both up from '09, Pietersen the same and Trott highest of the lot. It's all on cricinfo.
Comment number 101. Posted by Richardon 5 Jul 2013 14:56
England's major weakness in 1st innings has been against spin, especially away from home.
Our 1st innings performances against SA last year, arguably the best seam attack in the world, were reassuringly strong. Over 300 each time.
In fact Steyn finished with a series average of 29. In the series just played vs Aus he averaged 21.
This is a more relevant comparison given the Aussies seam attack.
Comment number 100. Posted by England1992on 5 Jul 2013 14:14
It is the weakest area, but Pietersen coming back in for Compton is a huge boost.
The batting is a concern, but the bowling attack should give us enough to keep the urn!
Comment number 99. Posted by OhMattyMattyon 5 Jul 2013 13:58
With Taylor, Bopara, Compton and Hildreth waiting in the wings, England are laughing if they have batting troubles. Australia have to look to Phil Hughes, Matt Wade and Usman Khawaja!!!!
Comment number 98. Posted by JLSon 5 Jul 2013 12:53
What makes following England cricket so entertaining is their dodgy batting displays
Will they hold their nerve or not?
Bottling it again or just hanging on in there
They rarely go out there and give it to the oppo
They'll be disciplined cautious focused and conservative
But will they be going out there next week with smiles on their faces ready to play hard attacking cricket?
They better be!
Comment number 97. Posted by SidneyBarneson 5 Jul 2013 12:06
The statistics are interesting, but don't read too much into them. Australian first innings scores are inflated by Clarke's wonder run in 2012. Also by playing at home. They've only passed 400 twice in their 1st innings away from home since January 2012, whereas domestically they've had 2 scores over 600 and 2 over 500.
Comment number 96. Posted by 00Mike26on 5 Jul 2013 11:59
"...of all four of the batsmen..."
There's the problem. You need six. The line-up has been unsettled, new players have been trying to establish themselves and these things have a cumulative and a knock-on effect.
If we're looking outside the current XI for alternatives then the answer is not another young untried player (Taylor) its the maturing, talented and experienced... Ravi Bopara.
Comment number 95. Posted by Morton 5 Jul 2013 11:31
Bell's rarely done it v Australia.
Coupled with his extended poor form ( 2 years of underperformance is more than a drought) and lack of a spine, we have more than Bairstow to worry about.

Isis, which is a company that has been put together by a number of different carriers including AT&T, T-Mobile as well as Verizon, has had support flash of them by a number of device manufacturing companies including me venture Isis. The carrier led venture is one that is looking to really centralize the support for the NFC technology and take it to an entirely new level. All of the handset makers are now committed to introducing handsets that will include the Isys NFC related technology standards. They're going to be representing a number of different carriers, and having the device manufacturing companies on board with the launch of the service is big news for them because it allows them to have a wider reach throughout the community. Other companies have also tried to launch their own services including Google with the recently launched Google Wallet program which is available for Android handsets such as Unlocked Samsung Infuse, Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc, etc...
The technology that Isis uses is certainly going to become more popular in the coming months and weeks. Being able to pay for objects with a swipe of your mobile device is something that I think that a lot of people would like to have by their sides. Being able to bring it to as many people as possible is something that mobile carriers are likely looking to do. However, they're not going to be able to do so without first getting as many companies on board with it as possible.
Bringing this NFC technology to the forefront is ideal for the companies involved and will definitely be able to change the outlook of the general public in a more quick way. If they are not able to get the public knowledgeable about what this technology is, then quickly implementing it will be tougher than you think.
PureMobile carries wide range of unlocked cell phone and cell phone accessories such as Cases and Skins.

The cream is light, non greasy and scentless. It does moisten the skin area around the eye with only a tiny amount and spreads easly. But it does nothing more. There has'nt been the slightest improvement with the wrinkle appearance. Having said that I know that there is no eye cream in the world that can undo wrinkles. So, in all, a reasonable natural eye cream with a very good price.
Nice and gentle

Note For Microsoft Windows XP-based and Windows Server 2003-based computers, administrators can use Software restriction policies to prevent an ActiveX control from running in any programs on computers in an Active Directory domain environment. For more information about software restriction policies, visit the following Microsoft Web site:

Important This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For added protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
(https://support.microsoft.com/kb/322756/ )How to back up and restore the registry in Windows
Warning Microsoft does not recommend unkilling (undoing the kill action on) an ActiveX control. If you do so, you may create security vulnerabilities. The kill bit is typically set for a reason that may be critical, and because of this, extreme care must be used when you unkill an ActiveX control. Also, because the following procedure is highly technical, do not continue unless you a very comfortable with the procedure and you it is a good idea to read the whole procedure before you start.
The CLSID for an ActiveX control is a GUID for that control. You can prevent an ActiveX control from running in Internet Explorer by setting the kill bit so that the control is never called by Internet Explorer when default settings are used.
The kill bit is a specific value for the Compatibility Flags DWORD value for the ActiveX control in the registry. This is different from revoking the "safe for scripting" option in an ActiveX control. When the "safe for scripting" option is revoked, Internet Explorer still calls for the control and then prompts you with a warning message that the ActiveX control may be unsafe. Depending on the choice you make, the control may be run. However, after the kill bit is set for an ActiveX control, that control is not called by Internet Explorer at all unless the Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe option is enabled in Internet Explorer. To set the kill bit, follow these steps:
{ABCDEF12-ABCD-ABCD-ABCD-ABCDEF123456}For example:
Internet Explorer will interpret this value and create an instance of the ActiveX control that is referenced in the AlternateCLSID value instead of the one that has received a killbit.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility\
{CLSID of killed ActiveX control}, Compatibility Flags, 0x0400
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility\
{CLSID of killed ActiveX control}, AlternateCLSID, "{CLSID of alternate ActiveX control}"
Note For the AlternateCLSID value to be effective, the killbit must be set on the initial CLSID.
ActiveX control developers can use the TreatAs or AlternateCLSID registry values with the "kill bit" to have Internet Explorer check to see if an updated ActiveX control has been provided for use instead of a disabled ActiveX control. For information about how to use the TreatAs value, visit the following Microsoft Web site:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms679737.aspxTo set the AlternateCLSID value, follow these steps:

The Chautauqua Era 1901-1922
The first Weldon Springs Chautauqua opened on August
6, 1901. Its purpose, as stated in the charter, was "for social intercourse
� the intellectual and moral elevation of the adjacent people."
The Chautauquas met in mid-August for ten days
each year (from 1901 �1922) to hear a program of music, religion, politics and
entertainment and to enjoy "that place in the woods where worry ceases,
where health and happiness prevail and good will and neighborly love is manifest
in all."
Thousands of people filled the
grounds to hear union activist Eugene V. Debbs, temperance crusader Carrie Nation,
evangelist Sam Jones, orator William Jennings Bryan, "the blind girl"
Helen Keller, Reverend Billy Sunday, Vice-President James Schoolcraft Sherman,
and President William Howard Taft. All spoke at a Weldon Springs Chautauqua
� Bryan and Jones more than once.
A contemporary account described
a Chautauqua at Weldon Springs as "forty acres of water, tents, and teams."
Opening Day in 1901 brought 1,000
people of all ages. Gate receipts were $150 and 125 tents were filled with campers.
On Sunday, the total crowd reached 7,00-8,000 with receipts of $400. Total receipts
for the ten days were $3,7000.
In the second year,
325 tents formed what came to be known as "White City". The tent city
included a dining hall tent, refreshment stands, a grocery store (groceries
delivered to patron�s tents), a police tent, a post office (mail delivered twice
a day), an information center, a telephone station, a checkroom, a physician�s
tent and feed yards for the teams of horses which brought the campers.
Three sessions per day were scheduled
with programs � morning, afternoon and evening � with recesses for lunch and
supper. Free use of the lake was granted for fishing, "bathing" (swimming),
or boating.
Bridges over the west arm of the
lake, a bath house, walkways, and an auditorium capable of seating 5,000 were
eventually added.
A "fleet of rowboats"
(50 in 1906) were available for use and the steam launch Columbia took excursions
around the lake.

Comments about Blue Yeti Pro USB Microphone:
Overall, it so far seems to do a lot of different jobs all in one mic, with good quality.
I still need use it more, and experiment, but I would recommend it for vocals, instrumentals, choirs, duets, and pretty much anything else. It really does have a wide variety of uses.
I like the gain knob as well, you can control how much depth the mic pics up, so if there is something loud that needs to be recorded, the gain can be turned down, and vice versa.
I don't know if this is a better deal than the plain Yeti microphone, but it is certainly doing the job, and I like to plug mine into an audio interface on occasion, so if you don't mind not having that option, then I would go with the regular Yeti.
The different modes that can be used for this are great! I tried using the Bidirecitonal mode for a duet with piano on one side, and voice on the other, and it sounded really clean!
The cardioid mode is really good for clean crisp vocals, but the stereo can be good too, having a more "live" sound.
I am upgrading from a Nady USB-1C, so this is quite a quality upgrade!
For the price ($230 on Ebay), it is absolutely worth the money. The sound quality of the mic seems really clean, and the desktop stand that it comes with is really helpful as well! It also comes with a volume jack thinger in which you can hear the sound source through the mic, which is great.
It's worth buying, in my opinion. I'm pretty new to using audio-interfaces and mics, but I think that this has a good sound for a good price, I've done quite a bit of research. If you want to know how it sounds, just check out a youtube clip or something.

Video: Conversations Between Teachers & Murder Suspect Released
Video: EXPLICIT: Audio of Conversations Between Teachers and Jones
CHEEKTOWAGA, NY-- Cheektowaga Police released audio recordings between several teachers and a student accused of murder.
The police chief has described the calls as mind-blowing.
WEB EXTRA: Click here to read the police transcripts of the phone calls (WARNING.. there is explicit language in the transcripts). Click here to listen to the phone calls (WARNING... the phone calls have explicit language).
In May 2011, Dontre Jones, a former student at Cheektowaga High School shot and killed Ira Watkins in Cheektowaga Town Park.
Jones was arrested in February 2012, and while he was in the Erie County Holding Center awaiting trial, police say he had conversations with several teachers during class time and was allowed to talk to students in class.
Police say the conversations weren't criminal, but were inappropriate.
By releasing the tapes, Cheektowaga Police Chief David Zack wants to set an example, that nobody should interfere with a police investigation. He said "the line was severely crossed" when one teacher mentioned by name a potential witness in Jones' case.
In the recordings, the teacher and Jones have the following exchange:
TEACHER: I hear [Witness 1] snitched on you.
JONES: Word?
TEACHER: That's what the kids said here.
JONES: Oh, uh...
TEACHER: I don't know.
JONES: I really don't know. I won't find out nothing until tomorrow.
Police released the recordings after a judge ruled that they could be heard. The attorneys for the teachers lost their fight to keep the recordings sealed. Jeff Kuemmel, the president of the Cheektowaga Central Teachers' Association, said he hadn't had ample time to review the recordings, so he declined an on-camera interview. But he did go on record with several comments in defense of the teachers, claiming that he's troubled by the lack of due process in this situation and believes the phone recordings do not accurately reflect the full context of the situation. Kuemmel also said he's concerned that teachers were not briefed on how to deal with Jones in their classrooms, since he still attended school before his arrest in February 2012.
Kuemmel said if the school board purses action against the teachers, the New York State United Teachers will intervene in their defense. He also said he's confident that during due process, a neutral panel will consider the context of the situation.
"If people knew the teachers, they would know they'd never support violent action or affiliation with gangs," Kuemmel said. "They're good people."
The teachers are on administrative leave and are still under investigation by the school district.
The Cheektowaga School District has not made a decision on whether to penalize the teachers or not. Superintendent Dennis Kane said he cannot comment because of the pending investigation.
Jones was convicted of killing Watkins in June.

LAKE SUCCESS, N.Y., November 18, 2009 – Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leading provider of advanced digital imaging and software solutions, today unveiled its new digital scanning solution for workgroup document imaging and general office applications – the new imageFORMULA DR-2020U – the latest model in the Company's award-winning DR-Scanner line.
The DR-2020U incorporates the reliable paper handling and high-quality imaging capabilities inherent in Canon's DR-Scanner line to provide robust functionality at an affordable price. Ideal for distributed scanning and general office workloads, the DR-2020U offers versatile three-way scanning – a 50-page Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) for batch scanning, a flatbed to accommodate unconventional-sized documents, and a dedicated business card feeder tray to handle batch business card scanning. The DR-2020U is capable of one-pass duplex scanning at up to 20 pages / 40 images per minute (ppm/imp) in black-and-white and up to 20 ppm/imp in color*. Combined with its user-friendly design and extensive bundled software, the DR-2020U is indispensable to nearly any office environment.
"Canon has a long-standing commitment to answering the digital imaging needs of all segments of the market.

Users can easily begin scanning operations through three pre-defined Scan-To-Job buttons for Copy, File and E-mail functions, as well as five programmable Scan-To-Job buttons for assigning up to 50 different imaging tasks. The Scan-To-Job buttons enable multiple users within a workgroup to access frequently performed tasks at the touch of a button, providing for simpler use and greater office efficiency.
Further enhancing user productivity, the DR-2020U includes ISIS/TWAIN drivers, industry standard interfaces which seamlessly link applications and scanners for easy hardware integration with third-party Enterprise Content Management (ECM) software. The new scanner is also bundled with the latest document imaging software packages – including Canon CapturePerfect and CaptureOnTouch, Adobe Acrobat Standard, NewSoft Presto! BizCard, and Nuance PaperPort Standard and OmniPage SE – to deliver a complete end-to-end solution.

In addition, the DR-2020U employs efficiency-boosting features such as Double Feed Detection, Auto Page Size Detection, and Skip Blank Page to reduce tedious preparation and presorting of documents prior to scanning, helping to streamline workflows.
To ease integration with customer infrastructures, the DR-2020U universal workgroup scanner has been tested and is compatible with solutions from the following software vendors**:

ever since this religion was set up in '05, everyone has been debating about the existence of this flying spaghetti monster. naysayers have mocked the FSM, and even some members of the church have questioned its authority (fine by me).
I'm here to offer my humble theory.
there is a theory (i can't remember who made it- I'm only 13, people!) that states that whenever a decision is made by anything, anywhere, the universe splits into two equally large universes to accomodate both of the branches of this decision. so, if you were taking a walk, and you came at a split in the road, and decided to turn left, another universe would pop into existence in which you took a right turn.
so, according to this, there must have been a universe somewhere in which a transdimensional, omnipotent spaghetti monster was created, and proceeded to kill off any universe in which a copy of himself or any other deity was made. Of course, being transdimentional and omnipotent, he can exist in all the theoretical universes in which we exist. since he is transdimensional, flying through walls is not a problem to him, nor is there a problem in creating a heaven with a Beer volcano and stripper factory.
hope y'all can understand this, reply if you can,

Not to state the obvious, but the runways don't always showcase clothing that truly works for real life. For example, for fall and winter, many designers showed things like peep-toe boots paired with bodysuits (sans pants, of course), wispy lace blouses, and scads of sheer skirts and dresses. We love all of these trends--okay, two out of three--but they're not exactly go-to options on a freezing day, to say the least. But while there are a handful of out-there ensembles and impractical materials in the current collections, we also noted one major trend that's both fashionable and realistic: chunky knits!
While high-fashion options like Marc Jacobs' Hand-Knit Fisherman's Sweater ($1400), Rag & Bone's Kemble Scarf ($195), or D&G's Cable-Knit Wool-Blend Sweater Dress ($445) are certainly worthy of consideration, we think this is one trend that doesn't require a splurge. Save those hard-earned dollars for the fast-approaching holiday season because we've gathered a covetable collection of chunky knits for your shopping pleasure--all under $100. Yup, these yummy options will keep you snug as a bug all winter and they're super stylish too, so be sure to pick up a piece or two today. Once you've narrowed it down, don't forget to take a styling tip from Kate Bosworth and layer your chunky knit with equally interesting pieces. The actress, who was snapped running errands in Los Angeles early last month, recently combined an oversized brown Topshop cardigan, black t-shirt, army green shorts, and suede Isabel Marant ankle boots. It's a smart transitional ensemble and it's cost-effective; in other words, a win-win situation!
Topshop Knitted Short Cable Jumper ($80)
When we first spotted this darling pullover, we instantly thought of fashion favorite Sienna Miller. We're positive she'd appreciate its dusty rose color and cropped hemline. And if you're in the market for something that's a little more fitted, we think this is an oh-so sweet cable-knit worth trying. It's thick without being bulky, and guaranteed to keep you toasty, so just give it a polished finish with high-waisted trousers and a pair of pumps.
Zara Oversize Jersey ($80)
For our minimalist dressers out there, we promise you'll love this gray crewneck pullover from Zara. The basic cut makes it a perfect throw-on-and-go sweater that can be worn day or night. It's super versatile, so you can juxtapose its relaxed fit with black skinny jeans or try pairing it with a floor-grazing maxi skirt for a fashion-forward ensemble inspired by the runways--it works both ways!
Nastygal Unbalanced Crop Knit ($68)>br>
It's easy to get stuck in a routine of standard sweaters and cardigans, but if you're looking to mix things up a bit, we suggest checking out Nastygal's amazing cropped iteration. Don't be fooled by this sweet beige knit, it definitely has an edgy side with not one, but two asymmetric cuts at the hemline and neckline. For the ultimate downtown ensemble, pair this cool-girl sweater with a pair of slim trousers and lace-up boots.
byCorpus Popcorn Sweater ($68)
The masterminds behind the brand Corpus created an exclusive line for Urban Outfitters and the collection boasts many obsession-worthy items to keep an eye on--like this awesome thick-knit cardigan. When the chilly weather calls for an additional layer, you'll want to answer it with this black and white sweater. The long cut and relaxed shawl collar make it an excellent alternative to a lightweight winter coat.
Madewell Shadowbox Mohair Sweater ($75) in Pine Shadow
There's nothing that pleases us more than a piece that can take us from the office to the weekend without skipping a beat, which explains our adoration for this fuzzy v-neck sweater. Whether you choose to wear it to brunch with your favorite worn-in t-shirt or layered over a crisp button-up for your next meeting, you'll definitely appreciate its roomy fit. We're partial to this gorgeous green hue, but if you love this comfortable option as mush as we do, you might want to snag all five amazing colors.
Forever 21 Long Multi-Knit Cardigan ($25)
What's not to love about Forever 21's take on the chunky knit? The soft taupe color of this unfussy cardigan will surely give your ensembles a chic finish, so you'll definitely want to have this one on hand at the office.
BDG Knit Cardigan ($68)
A classic knit cardigan is a timeless wardrobe staple in our opinion, which is why our selection would not be complete without BDG's chunky iteration. The sweater's worn-in gray color and brown button details make it feel as if it was taken straight from our grandfather's closet. Plus, it's so comfortable and versatile, we want to wear it all day/everyday, especially over silky blouses or vintage dresses.
H&M Short-Sleeve Knit Sweater ($25)
Who says all knits have to be long-sleeved? Not your Who What Wear editors or the design team at H&M! The latter designed a pumpkin short-sleeve sweater that might be the ideal transitional piece. It's not too heavy, so you can throw on additional layers, like a cool cardi or a boyfriend coat if you need extra warmth. And we can definitely appreciate its thrifty price tag!--Jessica Baker

"The looming threat of further political fallout in the U.S. is the key threat over the coming weeks with both President Obama and Fed Chairman [Ben] Bernanke warning of the dire repercussions if Republicans carry out their threats to withhold an increase in the U.S. debt ceiling beyond the end of February," said Rebecca O'Keeffe, head of investment at Interactive Investor in London.
Retailers were in focus in Europe, with shares of Burberry Group PLC BRBY, -3.05% rallying 4.6% in London. The luxury-goods firm delivered stronger-than-expected third-quarter revenue growth on robust sales, despite lowering guidance for sales to department stores. See: Burberry sales rise; wholesale suffers.
Shares of Swedish fashion retailer Hennes & Mauritz AB HMB, +0.41% rose 3.6%. The company said same-store sales saw a 2% year-on-year decline last month, but analysts had forecast a 2.6% fall. Total sales rose 8% from December 2011, topping expectations for a 5.9% increase.
Bank shares came under pressure, with Banco Santander SAN, -2.71% dropping 1.9% in Madrid, BNP Paribas BNP, -1.09% losing 2.2% in Paris, and Barclays PLC BARC, -2.01% trading down 1.6% in London.
Capturing investors' attention, Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner warned late Monday that the U.S. government could run up against the debt ceiling by mid-February or early March. The White House and congressional Republicans continue to wrangle over the debt-limit issue just weeks after taking steps to avert a combination of tax hikes and spending cuts known as the fiscal cliff.
Failure to raise the debt limit could result in a default.
Fitch Ratings on Tuesday said it continued to view a default as unlikely but warned that a delay in raising the debt ceiling would prompt a formal review of its AAA sovereign rating on the U.S. See: Fitch reiterates warning on debt ceiling.
U.S. and German data in focus
Tuesday's trading in U.S. stocks took on a bearish tone, as investors digested a plate of economic data. See: U.S. stocks drop on earnings wariness.
U.S. retail sales rose 0.5% in December, topping forecasts for a 0.2% rise, while wholesale-level inflation remained well contained. The Empire State Index, however, showed manufacturing in the New York region contracting for a sixth consecutive month.

Le Drian said that a French pilot was killed on January 11 during a helicopter raid to prevent Islamist groups controlling northern Mali from advancing toward the capital Bamako. The raid was carried out to support Mali ground troops in the battle for the key town of Kona. Backed by French air power, Malian troops on January 11 unleashed an offensive against Islamist rebels who, having seized control of the north of the country in March last year, were threatening to push south.

The New York Coach Killers
According to multiple sources, the Kings have fired Coach Reggie Theus. After laying an absolute egg at home against New York over the weekend, Kings management apparently decided that they had enough with Theus.
A couple of weeks ago, the Wizards fired Eddie Jordan after a slow start to what many in the organization hoped would be a promising season. The game that the Wizards lost to the Knicks was the straw that broke the proverbial camel's back.
From here on out, all coaches who are on the hot seat have one common nightmare… playing the New York Knicks.
I know that I am overexaggerating, but I think it is hilarious that two coaches this year have been fired after losing to the Knicks. With the Theus firing, I like to see it as a testament as to how badly the Knicks wiped the floor with the lowly Kings than Theus' problems with management.

What is the difference between the
Diablo Trinity vs. Intune?
A: The Trinity
has the virtual gauges, on screen dragstrip, SD card, and
more 'features', while the inTune is the latest in tuner technology,
on a Predator replacement level. Engine tune wise, they're
the same but the Trinity is better for data logging.

Here's the scenario, i adjusted the display to 1024x800, i was looking for a "test setting" button, but there's none. So i decided to continue anyway, and...it didn't work. But i can't change it anymore since i can't barely see anything. How can i change it back to the previous display setting? Thanx.

I don't know about everyone else but I was excited to see the Delmarva rotation heading into the 2010 season. With Matt Hobgood, Bobby Bundy, Jesse Beal, Jake Cowan and Ryan Berry I thought that we had some of our best young prospects all on the same team. But due to injury and lack of production it wasn't really what I was hoping for. Ryan Berry pitched well and was promoted but the other four were just average and no one was throwing as hard as they used to. Bobby Bundy has impressed this year at Frederick while also bringing his velocity back up to as advertised.
To get to mime question, who will be in the starting rotation next year? Obvious choices would have to be Dylan Bundy, Parker Bridwell and Mike Wright but who will be the fourth and fifth starters? Will we push some of our young high upside arms (Vader, Esquivel, Baker, and Rodriguez) or will Bywater, Taylor, Simon and Coffey be given the spots? If we decide to go with the high upside arms, Delmarva could be a must see every night next year.

NEWPORT-Against a very young, inexperienced UCA girls soccer team, the Craftsbury Lady Chargers unloaded 17 goals in a ruthless 17-0 win over the Lady Crusaders.
Iva Wright and Meghan Brown led the way with three goals apiece. Meghan Pennock, Melanie Sergiev and Abbie Martin each had a pair of tallies, with five other players finding the back of the net as well.
However, the hardest working player on the field was not a Charger, it was UCA netminder Drew Andrews.
The sophomore did not buckle, flinch or complain, standing tall in the UCA goal while her opponents fired a mind-numbing 47 shots on net.
For more on this story, see the Express on Monday 9-9-13.

Sort of comforting that all idiots do not reside in the United States. Regardless of what they say, though, car dominates in New York and I am sure that Copenhagen is much more bike friendly.

And now Amsterdam, as well, is "having issues"; I truly hope we haven't reached the plateau of "peak bike use". THAT would be truly sad -- particularly as I have NO plans or intent to replace the car I sold eight years ago.

Why was he elected in the first place? Did the people of Copenhagen share the same view as the mayor?

Could be worse... At least the mayor of CPH isn't paying a lot of money to REMOVE bike lanes, like Rob Ford of Toronto is right now.

Cambodian coffee
Posted 12 December 2005 - 08:46 AM
Has anyone else found the same thing? Is it a characteristic of the bean variety, or has something been added to the coffee? I believe there was an article on Cambodian coffee in Gastronomica some time ago, but I haven't been able to get my hands on a copy.
Posted 12 December 2005 - 09:15 AM
Was the coffee you had while in Cambodia prepared in the little metal filter assemblies akin to how the Vietnamese Cafe Sua Da is prepared?
And more to the point - I have had both Vietnamese coffee (from Vietnam - not just stuff brewed in the Vietnamese style) and also Laotian coffee. Have never noticed any distinct chocolate notes in the flavor of those.
Posted 12 December 2005 - 09:48 AM
[i'm so glad i lugged back 4kg of the best VN coffee beans money could buy]
Posted 12 December 2005 - 10:09 AM
The container you bought - was it pre-ground or whole bean? There are a number of coffees that have a chocolate undertone although it's more pronounced when brewed as espresso than as drip coffee.
Was the coffee you had while in Cambodia prepared in the little metal filter assemblies akin to how the Vietnamese Cafe Sua Da is prepared?
I didn't notice metal filter assemblies. If I recall, the coffee came either from espresso machines or French presses. The coffee I brought home was ground, and I made it in a French press.
I never noticed a chocolate flavor to the coffee in Thailand, so perhaps it's a Cambodian thing.
Posted 14 December 2005 - 05:41 AM
Posted 15 December 2005 - 08:22 PM
I have to say I didn't notice a chocolate flavour in the coffee i drank while there. However most of the coffee i drank was made suo da style, and i did pour in the sweet canned milk, so I might not have noticed. There was a fair amount of chicory in most of the coffe I drank there. Could that be the taste you noticed?
Maybe. I'm frankly not accustomed to drinking coffee that contains chicory (at least to my knowledge), so I'll have to buy some and see if I notice the flavor again.

It is very possibly the chickory. Also, in Vietnam at least, robusta coffee is the primary coffee available and although many people say it has an unpleasant burnt rubber taste it's OK by me.
That link on the Phnom Penh style roasting is great, cheers.

It was an evening of hope, an evening of celebration, and an evening of pride.
In commemoration of 9-11, the City of Price and its entertainment affiliate, The Culture Connection, put together an incredible program of recognition and musical dedication Monday night at the local high school auditorium. Before a standing room capacity crowd, estimated at 1100 people, hundreds of law enforcement officers, emergency services personnel, and military heros were recognized and honored.
According to Madelaine Nyffeler, Culture Committee chairperson and organizer of the event, "there was a feeling of unity and the evening turned out incredibly wonderful." She went on to explain the warm, intimate and appreciation that filled the auditorium.
"We had planned to host an event sometime this year to honor our local firemen and police officers for their daily commitment to our safety, and as the anniversary of 9-11 came closer we decided to plan the celebration in conjunction with the national events," said Nyffeler.
"At first we regretted bringing the program into the auditorium, but with the heavy rains over the weekend, the soggy football field and the threat of more showers we felt we needed to bring it in," explained Nyffeler.
Nyffeler agreed that the program was way too long but, "we had so many volunteers that wanted to perform and David Velasquez, pastor of Castle Valley Family Church, put together such an incredible group of performers we felt we needed to allow everyone to sing and entertain."
In his opening remarks to the law enforcement officers of Carbon County, Mayor Joe Piccolo, said, "As citizens of the city and county we enjoy the kind of safe streets and hometown that other areas are missing out on. The sight of an officer in our hometown is a welcome and pleasant sight. Our security and safety is insured by dedicated professionals who not only handle the local infractions but also put their lives on the line to confront and arrest those who would do us harm."
In addition to all law enforcement officers, Piccolo and Representative Brad King also recognized the ambulance services, EMT's, fire departments and rescue personnel, "who are on call and respond in a moment's notice," added Piccolo. "In every American community large or small there are the valiant few who spend countless hours training to save us from our worse moments and our worse fears."
The last group of heros to be recognized were the numerous service men who were brought to the stage in three groups. Men representing the American Legion Post No. 3, including men who served in both World Wars, the Korean War, Vietnam, and Desert Storm. All branches of the military were represented include Army, Navy, and Marines. The military personnel, as well as the law enforcement officers and safety personnel received many standing ovations as they were honored and recognized.
The musical portion of the celebration was organized by Velasquez and include an incredible lineup of performers and singers. Names like Julia Johnson, Sheree Fitzgerald, Sherry Vlamakis, Masa Fukada, the Brunson Brothers, Marie Griego and Loralee Armstrong highlighted the evening.

Usually I stay away from making predications, particularly on the high school front. Still, with so many area teams competing in Tuesday night's semifinal round, I thought it would be a good as time as any to gaze into the crystal ball.
With that in mind, here's one reporter's feeling on what may transpire this evening (home team in caps):
TOLMAN 21, St. Raphael 7
This won't be the blowout we saw in September, yet it won't be close to the point that the game comes down to the final five minutes.
Woonsocket 35, CHARIHO 14
The defending champion Villa Novans will lock up the other half of the Division II Super Bowl showdown we've been anticipating for the past month or so.
HENDRICKEN 17, East Providence 14
The Townies were a couple plays away from handing the Hawks a loss in October, though it's worth noting that a No. 4 seed in Division I has never advanced to the Super Bowl.
MOSES BROWN 20, Lincoln 18
This one figures to go down to the wire as the Quakers gain revenge on the Lions for beating them back in October.
EXETER/WEST GREENWICH 35, North Smithfield 20
Scarlet Knights running back Al Georgio enjoys one of his patent productive nights as the curtain gets lowered on the Northmen's Cinderella season.

Lake County School Board is proposing to ban all clubs, rather than allow a support club for gay students at a middle school.
The proposal to restrict general clubs started after a 14-year-old student asked for a Gay/Straight Alliance Club at Carver Middle School.
Lake County School Board member Bill Mathias says the primary goal of the school board is to educate middle school students so only curriculum based clubs should be allowed.
Mathias said in high school, all clubs are allowed.
But Equality Florida member Michael Farmer says the school board is banning clubs across the board in middle school to avoid allowing a Gay/Straight Alliance Club.
Mathias said that's not true.
The school board attorney is working on the proposal and the school board will vote again on Monday.

Mystery Photo No. 22
Although clues abound in this old photo from the Observer-Reporter archives, its location and date are a mystery to us. We are hoping some of our readers can help us solve this puzzle.
A group poses in front of a line of shops, the most prominent being a Greek café. The window lettering at top is in Greek characters and would be pronounced something like kafenion ellaz. Below, the lettering reads, cigars and tobacco, candies and ice cream, soft drinks of all kinds, Greek (last work obscured).
The next shop, in front of which sits a lone woman, also offers soft drinks and ice cream. The sign at the top of that building designates it as Miners Hall Local No. 1826. There is a four-digit number above it possibly the date of construction but it is obscured by telephone wires.
If you can identify the date and location of this photo, or provide any information about the people, the shops or the union hall, email Park Burroughs, retired executive editor, at firstname.lastname@example.com, or leave a message for him with your telephone number by calling 724-222-2200, extension 2400.
With any luck, well solve this Mystery Photo and publish the solution next Monday.

About Brantley Gilbert
Rising country/rock singer and songwriter Brantley Gilbert has come a long way from his days selling his five-song EP out of the back of his truck. Brantley Gilbert was born and raised in Jefferson, GA, a small town about an hour outside of Atlanta. Gilbert was touring and studying to be a relationship counselor at Georgia College & State University when a near-fatal car accident inspired him to pursue music full-time. The accident also inspired the title track of Halfway to Heaven.
Brantley Gilbert has released two albums on Average Joe's Entertainment Group Label. His first album, Modern Day Prodigal Son, was released in 2009 and was followed by Halfway to Heaven in 2010.
