Editor, the Gazette:
For the past 27 years, Steve Neal has kept the trust of the people of Ross County in effectively and efficiently running the office of county auditor. He now is asking for our vote for Ross County commissioner. He has earned that vote.
I have known him professionally and personally and can attest to his commitment to the betterment of our community. Not only does he run an efficient office, but he also actively participates in several community organizations such as Good Samaritan Network (local food pantry), Ross County Community Improvement Corporation and United Way of Ross County.
We should be proud of the way our commissioners have handled the business of the county. For as long as I can remember, our commissioners always have conducted business in a bipartisan manner rather than politics first, people second. We must ensure this bi-partisanship atmosphere continues. He conducts business in this same manner which has earned him the respect of all political affiliations.
Neal is a proven leader, community advocate and fiscal conservative.

Holy Qur'an Viewer2.913
editor's review
2 comments
Religion is an intriguing subject for most, as every religion has its own beliefs, values and traditions. Learning about other religions may be interesting and Holy Qur'an Viewer is the way to learn about the Quran, the central religious text of Islam.
User-friendly interface
This application provides its users with a multi pane interface, which makes it easy to use even for beginners. It offers an easy way for studying and memorizing the values of the Muslims' Holy Book.
Language assistant
Every verse is displayed by default in Arabic and English, but the language assistant is there to help you select the languages you can use to read the Holy Quran. For example, you can configure the application to display the text in Arabic, English and Transliteration mode at the same time.
Search operations and bookmarks
One of the advantages of the application is that it allows you to easily find what you are looking for. The search tool, the topic index, along with the possibility to add multiple bookmarks are features that allow you to reference a particular point or chapter in the Quran. Furthermore, the program enables you to use a multilingual method of selecting chapters.
Glossary, images, and other handy features
In order to easily understand the meaning of the Quran's content, you can use the Islamic Terms glossary, the transliteration table and also read the brief commentary of each chapter. Moreover, you can view images of the original Quran manuscript and information about the displayed pages.
With this software, you can learn about the available Quran translations and methods to memorize it. Also, the programs' appearance can be customized as you wish: you can change the color scheme and the text highlight color.
Efficient and reliable educational software
Providing you with useful navigation tools and learning methods, Holy Qur'an Viewer is a multilingual application designed to be a reference tool for anyone who wishes to learn about the content of the Islamic Holy Book.

New build— Japan
Japan is at a momentous crossroads. Despite the tragedy that has engulfed the nation, now is a time for it to embrace large-scale change as it rebuilds. And this means playing the international market and realising its full arts and business potential.
Every morning for the past three weeks I've been waking up and hoping for a bit of good news from Japan. I'm not quite sure what this particular bit of good news would sound or look like, but I've found myself in front of my screen by 05.00 London time scanning the websites of The Mainichi Daily, Yomiuri Shimbun, NHK and the BBC wishing for a "breaking news" banner with a headline flashing "Fukushima plant under control", "All homeless to be re-housed by late spring" or "Japanese consumers go on spending spree to bolster economy". Sadly no such…

Update: Instead of replying to this blog post with feature requests, you can now post them in the Interspire Ideas Lab, as well as vote on other features and have your say.
As we wind up building features for the upcoming release of Interspire Shopping Cart 4.0, I thought I'd take a few minutes to give you a quick overview of some of the new features you can expect with this release. Our aim with version 4.0 is to include new features which we feel will make it even easier to map our shopping cart with your business processes across an even wider range of industries.
We've also focused heavily on including support for as many different payment/checkout providers as we can.
Payment Providers
Let's start with the new payment providers integrated into version 4.0:
- Amazon Flexible Payments
- Amazon.com SimplePay
- Beanstream
- Camtech
- Cardservice International
- ChronoPay API
- ChronoPay Hosted Page
- Cybersource
- E-Xact
- HSBC Secure ePayments
- Innovate Gateway
- MoneyBookers
- MyVirtual merchant
- NetBanx
- Netbilling
- NetRegistry
- NoChex
- Payment Express Pay
- Payment Express Post
- PayPal Payflow Links
- PayPal Website payments pro
- PayLeap
- PayStation
- Plug N Play
- Protx VPS direct
- PSIGate.com
- Quantum Gateway
- Realex
- SecurePay Australia (formerly CamTech)
- USA ePay
New Features
Version 4.0 will be a major upgrade and will be provided free to all existing Interspire Shopping Cart customers. We have managed to include an astounding number of new (and highly requested) featres in the 4.0 release, as shown below:
- Line item shipping (option for different shipping addresses for each item in the cart)
- Ability to tag products with keywords and view the tag cloud on the front end
- Gift wrapping and the ability to choose if individual products support it
- The ability to mark individual items in an order as shipped one at a time
- Product variations can now handle dozens of combnations and have been rewritten to be faster
- Ability to upload an image or type text into a box when adding a product to your cart (for custom t-shirts, etc)
- Ability to add/edit customers in the control panel
- Bulk/quantity discounts on a per-product level
- RoyalMail shipping integration
New Store Templates
Version 4.0 will include a minimum of 5 (we're aiming for 10) new store templates, all created by our design team. Some screenshots of store templates which have already been built and tested are shown below:
The "Luggage" store template
The "Office" store template
The "Software" store template
Multi-Vendor Edition
To coincide with the version 4.0 launch, we will also be releasing a multi-vendor edition of Interspire Shopping Cart. The multi-vendor edition allows one store to sell products from multiple vendors, and each vendor can manage their own products, inventory, process their own orders, etc.
The multi-vendor edition includes a granular vendor-level permissions system, per-vendor reporting and accounting features, powerful per-vendor shipping zone setup and customization, vendor profiles and more. We will be posting more information regarding the multi-vendor edition as we get closer to the 4.0 release in October. If you have any questions until then please contact Vadim Geller, our enterprise sales manager at email@example.com
As you can see, version 4.0 is going to be one of our biggest releases yet, and it will cap off what has been a great year for Interspire Shopping Cart. In only 14 months we've built, released and continue to refine ecommerce software that blows competing shopping carts out of the water in terms of speed, features and ease-of-use – and that's not my personal opinion. That comes from the mouths of industry veterans, tech reporters and bloggers who keep posting great reviews both online and offline, and also from the dozens of unsolicited customer testimonials we receive every day.
We're hoping to launch version 4.0 in October, however because it is such a big release, the date will of course depend on when we finish our testing and when we feel the 4.0 release is up to the usual quality of any new release we make available.
If you have any questions about 4.0 please feel free to leave them below and either myself or someone else will be happy to help.

This MSAccess tutorial explains how to use the Access Right function with syntax and examples.
The Microsoft Access Right function extracts a substring from a string starting from the right-most character.
The syntax for the Right function in MS Access is:
Right ( text, number_of_characters )
The Right function can be used in the following versions of Microsoft Access:
Let's look at how to use the Right function in MS Access:
Right ("Tech on the Net", 3) Result: "Net" Right ("Alphabet", 5) Result: "habet"
The Right function can be used in VBA code in Microsoft Access.
For example:
Dim LResult As String LResult = Right ("Alphabet",3)
The variable LResult would now contain the value of "bet".
You can also use the Right function in a query in Microsoft Access.
For example:
In this query, we have used the Right function as follows:
Expr1: Right([CategoryName],10)
This query will return last 10 characters from the CategoryName field and display the results in a column called Expr1. You can replace Expr1 with a column name that is more meaningful.
For example:
PartialName: Right([CategoryName],10)
The results would now be displayed in a column called PartialName.

To embed, copy and paste the code into your website or blog:
On July 30, 2014, the Board of Alien Labor Certification Appeals (BALCA), in Matter of Symantec, decided the issue of whether a Certifying Officer may deny an Application for Permanent Employment Certification (ETA Form 9089) for a position involving a professional occupation if one of the "additional" recruitment steps does not comply with the advertising content requirements in 20 C.F.R. § 656.17(f)(6). BALCA found that a Certifying Officer may not deny certification on this basis.
Before an employer may file an application under the Permanent Employment Certification (PERM) process, it must test the labor market to ensure that there are not sufficient U.S. workers who are able, willing, qualified, and available to perform the position for which the employer seeks certification. If the application involves a professional occupation, then the petitioning employer must conduct mandatory recruitment steps required by § 656.17(e)(1)(i) and three of ten additional recruitment steps enumerated in § 656.17(e)(1)(ii). Newspaper and professional journal advertisements placed to fulfill the mandatory recruitment steps must comply with the advertising content requirements in § 656.17(f).
In Matter of Symantec, the employer had conducted three additional recruitment steps. However, one of the advertisements posted, pursuant to the additional recruitment steps, contained job requirements that were more restrictive than the requirements described on the ETA 9089. The Certifying Officer denied the application stating that the additional professional recruitment steps contained job requirements or duties which exceeded the job requirements or duties listed on the ETA Form 9089.
BALCA reversed the denial and held that the additional recruitment steps need not comply with the mandatory recruitment content requirements. It reasoned that the regulation that governs the additional recruitment step at issue in the case, § 656.17(e)(1)(ii)(C), only requires that a petitioning employer advertise the occupation involved in the application. In holding so, BALCA disagreed with the conclusion of one of its previous panel decisions.

Retirement Age: The Progress of Modern Optics
by David E. Petzal
At any given time I'm likely to be shooting loaner rifles, and so I keep eight or so scopes on hand to mount on these guns. Some of the scopes have been around for 15 years or more, and I keep using them because they work. The other day, however, I was shooting with one that had been around a long time, and on the other rifle I was using I had a brand-new Meopta MeoStar. When I switched from the rifle with the Meopta to the one with the old scope it was as though I had suddenly developed glaucoma. Everything went dim and muddy.
Often, when this happens, it's because the lenses have acquired a coating of what looks like dried oxtail soup, topped by a layer of dust. You clean them off and they're fine. But the lenses on this old scope were clean. What was at work? New scopes are so much better than those from only a decade ago that they make them look…disadvantaged. Optical progress, which used to proceed at a measured and stately course, now moves at the same breakneck speed as everything else.
This is not a disadvantage. One of the results is, I'm now seeing new low-priced scopes that are as good, optically, as the high-priced scopes of the 1990s. And today's medium- and high-priced scopes are in another league altogether.
The other thing that happened on that fateful day was, my old scope declined to send bullets where they were supposed to go. The windage adjustment was either worn out, or wearing out, and was unable to do what I was telling it.
So I sighed, and retired the old scope, and got a brand-new Meopta Meopro, and everything is now bright and sharp, and the bullets go where they're supposed to, but it's sort of sad. The old scope had served honorably.
I have yet to feel an ounce of empathy, however, for any old computer.
Pro Tool's J.Wayne Fears Series Knives
by David E. Petzal
Pro Tool, which makes the Woodman's Pal combination tool, and master outdoorsman and writer J. Wayne Fears have designed three new knives that bear his name (top to bottom): the Ultimate Survival Knife, the Ultimate Outdoor Cook Knife, and the Ultimate Deer Hunter's Knife. J. Wayne knows about everything there is to know about hunting and staying alive in the wilderness, and the knives show the input of someone who knows what the hell he is doing.
All three are made of 1095 cutlery steel, tempered to Rc 54-56. This steel makes a blade that sharpens easily and takes an edge like a razor, but usually requires a fair amount of resharpening. However, these hold their edges like Grim Death itself. Out of curiosity, I cut the top out of a steel acetone can with the Survival Knife. Its edge needed a little retouching, but otherwise it didn't seem to mind.
Because tool steel rusts, the Deer Hunter's Knife and the Survival Knife have their blades and tangs epoxy-powder coated. The Cook Knife does not, and if you leave it in your kitchen knife drawer you must stress to all who may use it that if they put it in the washing machine, they will be stabbed with it. Repeatedly.
The Deer Hunters Knife and the Outdoor Cook's Knife come with handsome handles made of oil-stained ash. The Survival Knife's handle is made of sharply checkered orange G-10. Ergometrically, it's about the best handle I have seen on a knife, period. The only one in a league with it is the handle on Chris Reeve's Pacific model. As for the orange color, it makes eminent good sense. You're not going to survive long if you lose your knife.
Both the Deer Hunter's Knife and the Outdoor Cook's knife come with high quality leather pouch sheaths, while the Ultimate Survival Knife rides in a black-nylon sheath with two keepers and a hard safety insert.
My favorite of the three is the Survival Knife. John Rambo would not approve because it is too small, too light, and way too practical for the movies. You can do damn near anything with it that can be done with a knife, from gutting a deer to stripping bark off trees to performing major surgery. Because of that wonderful handle you can put a great deal of force behind the blade for a long time without your hand cramping up.
These are simple, practical, rugged, affordable working tools that are made in America. There are fancier knives, but I can't think of any that are more effective. The Deer Hunters Knife and the Outdoor Cook Knife are $89.95; the Survival Knife is $159.95. You can get the specs and other details here.
Meopta: A Reality Czech on Scope Values
by David E. Petzal
As many of you requested, I walked the hallowed (and semi-ventilated) halls of the 2012 SHOT Show with your requests for inexpensive stuff ringing in my ears, instead of just the usual ringing. Riflescope-wise, the standout is Meopta, which I originally thought was an Asian firm, but turns out to be Czech. Meopta has been around for over 70 years and makes rifle scopes, spotting scopes, and binoculars. I've used only the rifle scopes, of which there are two lines. MeoStar (pictured here) is the more expensive, made and assembled in the Czech Republic, while MeoPro scopes have their components made abroad and assembled here. Cabela's sells both MeoPro instruments and its own Euro brand, which is made by Meopta.
The first time I used a Meopta rifle scope I guessed its price was $300 higher than what it actually cost. Think of it this way: A MeoStar that goes for $650 is a $1,000 scope on which you're getting a $350 discount. A MeoPro scope that sells for $450 is a $750 scope, ditto ditto. Don't let the modest prices fool you; these are very, very high-grade instruments.
Last summer, Kenny Jarrett, who is as knowledgeable and as fussy about scopes as any human I know, said: "If you can't afford a [Here he named a very famous and very costly scope.] get a Meopta." He was absolutely right.
Why isn't the line better known? Reinhard Seipp, who is COO of Meopta USA said, "We're not very good at publicizing ourselves." Then he paused and smiled. "But we're very good at making things."
It Was the Best of Lines, It Was the Worst of Lines; A Tale of Two Spools
Talking African Dangerous Game Hunting with Tony Sanchez-Arino
by David E. Petzal
The other night I had the pleasure of listening to a talk by Tony Sanchez-Arino who, at age 82, is about to begin his 60th season as an African professional hunter. In addition to countless safaris, he was also an ivory hunter and, I would guess, a game-control shooter. His numbers of animals taken are staggering: just under 1,300 elephant, 2,044 Cape buffalo, and 322 lion. His talk dealt with the three questions he is most often asked.
Which is better, a double rifle or a bolt action?
Answer: "They're both good. You go with whatever is most familiar to you. Don't go to Africa with a rifle that's new and strange."
What's the most dangerous animal?
"That's impossible to answer, because a lot of it depends on the country in which you hunt them. For example, Cape buffalo in open country are as easy to kill as cattle, but in heavy cover they're something else. I can tell you what is most likely to kill you if it gets hold of you, and those animals are, in order, elephant, Cape buffalo, and lion."
What's the toughest animal to stop?
"The Cape buffalo is by far the toughest. Sometimes when you're shooting them it seems like you're giving them vitamin pills. Lions can be difficult because they're so fast; a lion can cover 100 meters in 6 seconds. People get in trouble because they shoot at them from too far away. Get close and you won't have a problem. Elephants are comparatively easy to drop."
And as a side note, Sr. Sanchez-Arino's favorite bullet is the Swift A-Frame (which is true for a number of PHs I've talked to) and the rifle he uses most is a .416 Rigby bolt-action.
He's contemptuous of a number of things: "Ballistics tables, all these formulas and numbers, anything you read on the Internet, and 'experts.' All you need is a bullet with enough penetration to reach the vitals of whatever you're hunting. The rest is nonsense. And never believe anything you read on the Internet, or anything you hear from an 'expert.' From them, you get horse***t in industrial quantities."
He has never, in the course of all his years in the profession, gotten so much as a scratch.

SHOT Has Gone To The Zombies, and That May Not Be All Bad
by Phil Bourjaily
After two-and-a-half days of trudging the aisles of the Sands Convention and Visitor Center I'm still not sure what I have seen, other than lots and lots of people. Against all reasonable expectation, the show continues to be very well-attended. People are in a gun-buying mood and one vendor looked at the crowds in disbelief and said to me "I just wonder when it's all going to end. I think people must give up their indulgences last."
Whatever the case, I have seen some interesting shotguns, although not much new in shotgun ammunition. Hunting clothes keep getting better, lighter, thinner and warmer, which is a good thing. On the other hand, manufacturers are piling on the zombie bandwagon with zombie guns (Mossberg's tactical Model 94, called the 464 SPX is the most egregious example); zombie ammunition and zombie targets.

Dr. Meyn is professional, courteous, respectful, kind and puts his patients first! I would highly reccomend him!
If you are looking for a caring and compassionate doctor, then Dr. Meyn is it, I wish he was my doctor my whole pregnancy instead of just part of it, he preformed my C-Section and he did a great job you couldn't ask for a better incision, I would recommended this doctor to a friend or family member and I will return as a patient.
After going to the same OB/GYN for years I was getting no where fast with a continuing problem. After one visit with Dr. Meyn he set up a game plan for me. He listened to everything I had to say and explained everything to me. He has awesome bedside manners. He seemed to always go the distance to help me. He has done 2 surgeries on me and I had not one complaint with him or his staff. I have referred a lot of women to him and they always come back and tell me the same thing. That he takes an appt that is usually uncomfortable and makes you feel relaxed and comfortable.
Dr. Meyn is awesome . He always makes you so comfortable. Takes time to answer questions. I would recommend highly .
Dr. Meyn is awesome. He has always made me feel at ease and relaxed... As much as you can be in those visits! He even remembers things we have chatted about in the past. He really cares for his patients. The person posting the negative reviews is most likely is the crazy women that made several false claims against him a few years ago. He is a really great doctor and very professional!
If you're looking for a knowleageable, caring, and professional doctor, don't go to this doctor. He seems not to have time to listen his pacients concerns. My appointment with him lasted a little more than 5 min and all the symptons I have had during the last two months which include abdominal pain and inflammation seemed to be completely normal for him.
I have been a patient of Dr Meyn's for 5 years now and have even referred several of my friends to him . Being a single mom I have always been nervous about my teenage girls seeing a gynecologist for the first time but Dr Meyn has done such a wonderful job with making them feel so comfortable that we will without a doubt be patients of his for a very long time.
Dependable, gives answers you need! Will see you promptly whenever you have a problem, and no one else will. Never had a better physician!
Dr. Meyn always was willing to answer all questions I had. Was quick and made me feel very comfortable. I have not found a gynecologist yet that has compared to the treatment I received with Dr. Meyn.
This is DeAnna Marie. He was my doctor and I wish he still was! He saved my life! Many people back here was jealous of Doc Myen and that made me mad when they just pushed him back to Pittsburg! He was my doctor in Greenville! Doc if you can see this, keep your head up, stay strong, and always pray!In God's Agape Love, D.M.
My experience with Dr. Meyn was superb. Dr. Meyn did a wonderful job handling the problems in my pregnancy as well as delivering my child. Having a previous child at Magee, with a terrible experience, the delivery of my second child went very smoothly thanks to Dr. Meyn. He is, without a doubt, an excellent Dr.
The delivery of our first child was a wonderful experience under Dr. Meyn's thorough and skillful care. We can never thank him enough for all he has done for us.
Dr. Meyn is the most compassionate ,knowledgeable empathetic Dr. I have ever known. His bedside and professional manner are outstanding.
Would not reccomend him

The greatest questions are born during the rare instances when the flip of a single coin reveals no answer. Neither heads nor tails, the coin stands unabated and unwilling to give its consent. It's the inexplicable teeter of awe and improbability that allows us to feed our desires to make educated guesses and articulated arguments…. It's the spontaneous moments of curiosity that leads us on the path of self-awareness and academic success, and as a parent, these are the questions I seek from my daughters. The, "Who, what's?" - - "Where, whens?" - - "Why and how's?" The fantastical moments, wrought with exhilaration that welcomes a dive into an unexplored discussion of middle ground. At least that's how I felt, until my 8-year-old daughter asked me to tell her about the first time I got pubic hair.
I had never been more ill prepared for a question in my LIFE! Thirty-seconds ago we were talking about Sugar Fairies and lip-gloss!
"Um what's that?" I said, hoping to god I misheard her tired little voice.
"Well mommy and I have been reading this book about puberty and they were talking about getting pubic hair…." I didn't hear anything after that; she may very well have been giving me the directions to a Stargate porthole in a lost Peruvian language for all I know. My heart was racing, eyes watering, I felt like I was gonna faint.
"Oh, well ah… Go to bed. That's not a nice thing to say. I love you?" I shut the door and left the room.
By the time Cathy got home I'd sweated through three shirts and chugged down a bottle of room temperature chardonnay while spinning-off 23-miles on the stationary bike. I was a disaster.
"You are never gonna believe what your daughter said to me tonight." My tone was firm, slurred and alarming to say the least. Cathy, who was visibly concerned, put down her bag and rushed over to the bike where I'd been peddlin' and cryin' like a crazy man for the last 53 minutes.
"You are never gonna believe what your daughter said to me tonight." My tone was firm, slurred and alarming to say the least. Cathy, who was visibly concerned, put down her bag and rushed over to the bike where I'd been peddlin' and cryin' like a crazy man for the last 53 minutes.
"What's going on? Who said what, what'd she say?"
I lean in close, put my sweaty arm around her shoulder and whisper as light as I could, "Lucy. She said… rather she asked me about (I clear my throat) 'pubic hair.'"
"Oh? What did you tell her?"
"I told her to go to bed? I might have told her it wasn't nice?! Why would she say such a thing? She's eight? I wigged out and ran. I couldn't bare the thought of a follow-up question." Cathy gives an exasperated roll of the eyes, "Really? That's what you went with?" She shakes her head, explains the book and explains to me for the FIRST time, that she told Lucy she could come to either one of us if she ever had any questions, thoughts, curiosities or blah-blah about puberty. I'm not sure if the nausea I'm experiencing is from my wine-cycling experiment or the fact that my kids are getting to that "age?" I mean, I guess I feel slightly better knowing that there was a running dialogue, rather than a statement of desperation on her behalf, but it just seems too soon.
Cathy assures me it's fine, "We'll get it all figured out in the morning." She says as she helps me off the bike, "You'll be great!" Her confidence is warming.
"I will be, won't I? I can handle this. I was just caught off guard. I'll just apologize from my crude behavior, let her know that she can come to me for anything and we'll be back to talking about bubblegum and the disgusting nature of 'fruit-on-the-bottom' yogurt in no time."
I WAS WRONG! In fact, since apologizing to Lucy for my caveman attitude, she's become a very aggressive landmine of puberty seeking facts and questions. She's a walking onslaught of awkward narration and inappropriately timed inquiries. I find myself answering questions about "Periods. Acne. Tampons and Body odor." With, "Mom. Sea Breeze. Mom and Soap." Then…. THEN… Just as I was settling into a groove of competency, she started stringing together hypothetical situations that fall somewhere between every Dr. Seuss book ever and the Porky's trilogy.
"Dad?" She says.
"Hmmm?" I'm leery by the tone of her voice and the fact that it's been nearly fourteen minutes since our last awkward moment.
"You know how one day I'm gonna start my period?"
"Uhhh huhhh."
"You know how it will probably happen unexpectedly?"
"Umm Okaaaay?" At this point, I'm fairly confident I have no worldly idea how this is gonna play out, but I'm hanging in there.
"Well... when it does happen, and if it is unexpected, I hope it happens while we're at Kohl's." You see? This is not a normal question. Nobody in their right mind has thought about a follow-up to that specific sequence of words. Yet, I am now more curious than anyone EVER in the history of Earth, to find out why my daughter thinks Kohl's is a safe haven for early menstruation.
"Oh yeah. Why is that?"
"Well, they have machines that sell tampons in the Women's Room for a quarter. Just in case, like you never know." I almost die of joy. It's one of the most logically serious and sweetest thing I'd ever heard her say. It's the honest observation of a little girl waiting to enter her place in a big world, and it's perfect.
Parenting, much like life, is a work in progress. It's full of juxtaposition and philosophical nonsense. There is no pamphlet on this planet that can teach you the instinct and common sense you need to raise a child, you live it innately. Eating because you're hungry, sleeping when you are tired and loving because it is uncontrollable. I am currently nine years into a lifelong contract of parenting and any advice I'd give, is simply for the sake of courtesy. So... do what feels right, and be prepared to NOT have a plan. It's for that reason alone, I'll always carry two quarters in my pocket every time we go to Kohl's, because just in case like, you never know.

Maginot Line around B i t c h e France.

Volvo Makes HD Radio Standard On All Models…Almost
Vehicles 95 Views
Volvo will be the first automaker to offer HD radio as standard equipment. The technology will be available on all 2009 models except for one. This means more channels, CD quality sound for FM listeners and FM quality sound for AM listeners. Additionally, on screen info will include track and artist name, emergency warnings, closures and more. I'll be at the LA Auto Show next week to check out what else the auto industry has in store for 2009.

"The Search" Line-by-Line!

"The Search" Line-by-Line!
We've recently finished our
"Badda-Bing, Badda-Bang Line-by-Line" thread
After each completed thread, we're randomly picking someone who participated to choose the next episode we do. The lucky winner this time around was me! Again! For a second time! And I have chosen "The Search" as our next line-by-line adventure.
For any unfamiliar with our "game," you are asked to post only a single line (defined as one character speaking without interruption by another character) per message. You can post as often as you like, but someone else must post a line in between your posts.
As is our standard practice, we're doing these two episodes as a single thread. Our "rule" is that if the episode has a "To Be Continued..." on the end, it is done in a single thread, but if it's just an arc of related episodes, each episode is a separate thread.
As before, at the conclusion of this thread, I or my Jem'Hadar minion, LeadHead, (
) will pick someone at random from among all the participants to choose the next episode we do.
Now, on with the show...

We really appreciate your opinions. If you have any comments about the website or would like to suggest any additions to the website, please feel free to get in touch with us. We want to offer a website that is valuable and helpful to you.
Enjoy browsing the No Bodies Perfect information website!
Our Motto is:
Your Voice Counts: Recovery Exists
This is the focus of the No Bodies Perfect charity and underlines everything we do. We believe recovery is possible and we also believe everyone with an eating disorder is entitled to have a voice and to express that voice.
No Bodies Perfect is concerned with providing support, information and raising awareness, particularly in Scotland. We are Scotland's Charity for Eating Disorders (Registered Scottish Charity SC043354).
No Bodies Perfect involves Trustees, a Charity Director, Recovery Representatives and many volunteers who all give up their precious time to ensure No Bodies Perfect can do the things they do. We are exceptionally grateful to all our past and present volunteers for their hard work and dedication and to those people who also have helped us along the way. No Bodies Perfect (formerly The Positive Steps Eating Disorders Support Group) was founded by our Charity Director in May 2010 and we have come a long way since then. It initially began with three members and one group leader/facilitator who met in a healthy living centre in the west end of Glasgow for an hour once a week. It had a very basic website, no advertising, no business cards, no volunteers and just a few members – very few people knew about the group. Since then, the small group has grown into an established eating disorders charity in Glasgow and Scotland-wide and is known for its work all over the UK, and even to some people in the USA and Australia.
Our Charity Director founded the charity because of her own previous 14-year history with an eating disorder, primarily Anorexia, which started in her late teens. When she recovered, she knew she wanted to provide support for other people struggling with eating disorders. Her background in undergraduate and postgraduate psychology and counselling also heightened her aim of supporting other people with eating problems, particularly in Scotland.
The charity also involves other volunteers from various backgrounds. Volunteer positions include: Assistant Group Facilitators, Student Group Supervisor, Newsletter and Research Assistants, Recovery Representatives, Eating Disorders Community Awareness Assistant, Events and Fundraising Assistants, as well as those who are Charity Trustees. Many of our volunteers have completed training with the eating disorders charity Beat, British Psychological Society training in Managing Self-Harm, Volunteer Manager Training, amongst other things – we actively look out for new training opportunities for all our volunteers.

The focus of this year's APATS event was pilot training schemes for future airline pilots especially the multi-crew pilot license (MPL) now approved in over 30 countries and being currently used by flight schools in at least 13 of those countries. Despite the willingness of many airlines and aviation authorities worldwide to accept direct-entry pilot graduates in the cockpits of today's airliners, the event also focused attention on the FAA's recent regulations preventing such schemes from happening in the USA.
APATS continues to focus attention on the needs of non-native English speakers to acquire sufficient English ability to perform communications responsibilities in the international aviation system. Another focus was the need to improve entry requirements and preparation in advance of the beginning of pilot training for those thousands of international students now taking pilot training in the USA and other English speaking countries.
Additional news from Asian Aerospace highlighted the on-going recovery of the airlines. Announced at Asian Aerospace was the purchase by Air China of five 747-8s in the passenger configuration and the purchase by HNA (the parent company of Hong Kong Airlines and Hainan Airlines in China) of 38 Boeing jets including 30 of the yet to be certified B787-9s, six B777 freighters, and two more 787-8s in VIP configurations. An additional purchase of 10 business jets including five each from Gulfstream and Dassault Falcon was also announced at Asian Aerospace.
Sunrise Aviation trains more than 100 future airline pilots from all over the world each year. Students recently arrived at Sunrise Aviation from the Middle East (Saudi Arabia, UAE, Bahrain, and Egypt), Africa (Nigeria, Uganda, Tunisia, and Tanzania), Asia (India, Indonesia, and Malaysia), Europe (Norway, France, and the United Kingdom) South America (Brazil, Colombia, and Ecuador) and the Americas (Panama, and The Bahamas). Sunrise Aviation's fleet of more than 40 training aircraft including modern glass-cockpit C172s and location in the favorable weather of Central Florida permits flight training to proceed quickly and economically. Interested flying students can contact Sunrise Aviation in Ormond Beach, Florida by checking out their website at www.flysunriseaviation.com , emailing them at firstname.lastname@example.com or calling them at +1-386-677-5724.

For months, the argument over an increase in the nation's borrowing limit seemed to founder on the failure to agree on the big stuff — curbing spiraling Medicare costs, how deeply to cut military spending, how to raise more tax revenue without raising tax rates. But now that the political realities have forced those ambitions into retreat, the latest plans seem no more promising for being made up of small ideas instead of big ones.
After a difficult weekend of negotiations between the White House and top congressional leaders, legislators return Monday to Washington with no clear way forward to raise the $14.3 trillion debt limit before the Aug. 2 deadline.

In a couple of years, I will be moving to Florida for independent living. The list of myths and facts is very interesting, especially since my parents actually believe the myth that "a big hurricane will wipe out your house no matter what." Therefore, they love trying to convince me to "buy a flimsy mobile home" and I allready decided that mobile homes are a total no-no for me; I choose to live in a more substantial structure, preferrably made of concrete block. But they still love to tell me that "even concrete will never, ever stand a chance in a hurricane", which I know is blatantly false. For example, the Turkey Point Nuclear power plant just east of Homestead, Fl took a direct hit by Hurricane Andrew and survived with none more than a couple of damaged/cracked smoke stacks. But many times, I imagine my parents doing a research paper on Hurricane Andrew and saying in their paper that "the Turkey Point nuclear power plant, despite it's solid iron, steel, and reinforced concrete construction, was shattered and violently hurled from the ground by Andrew's winds, and the plant's remains now lie scattered throughout an approximately 150,000 square mile area of the Gulf of Mexico." The truth is, while I did read that there were a few concrete block homes severely damaged/destroyed by Hurricane Andrew, I also happen to know that there were many numerous concrete block homes that stood strong in Hurricane Andrew that were even directly in the path of Andrew's worst winds.

I understand that tape won't keep a window from breaking, but I was told it WILL keep large shards from falling and hurting people. That was my understanding of why we tape windows. Is that true?
Anne Says:
August 27th, 2011 at 12:41 pm
Sorry but I disagree with no. 3 about cracking windows during a hurricane. I live in Bermuda and have been through countless hurricanes. No-one EVER dies in a hurricane in their home in Bermuda and we have very little property damage. Our homes are built differently and are very strong but one thing we have done for generations is crack our windows. People who have failed to do this, have had their roofs blown clean off.
I have been home in many a hurricane and if we've only cracked a couple of winsdows, felt the air pressure build up. When that has happened, we have cracked a few more windows and felt the air pressure subside. I don't know how scientists can discount this-it all has to do with aerodynamics. As I said, we've always done it and we've always been fine. Our weather experts here who have had TONS of experience with hurricanes still advise us to do this and I trust their advice.
As for the tip about taping windows, that contains incorrect information as well. The point of taping windows is not to prevent them from breaking! It is so that when they do break, the glass doesn't shatter all over the place and hurt someone. Instead it breaks in large pieces and holds together allowing you to take it down gently. Covering windows with plywood is best, but if you can't it's good advice to tape them rather than do nothing! So what if the tape sticks-spray some Windex and the gooey residue comes right off-nobody has to scrape anything, for goodness sake!

Reading Mike's comments, I wanted to add that the reason our homes hold in Bermuda up is that they are built of concrete. We have strict building codes in Bermuda because of hurricanes with one being that our houses are built of concrete block and we have strict rules as far as foundations are concerned (like have deep they have to be). Our buildings here hold up really well if they are built properly. The most that usually happens is that we lose slate off roofs…nobody's house will blow down, that's for sure.
I look at damage in the aftermath of hurricanes in the U.S. and other places and see whole homes fallen down. That just doesn't happen here. Concrete is a product that gets stronger over time-not weaker-so if I lived in the U.S in a hurricane zone I most definitely would make sure my home was built of concrete block instead of that stucco or whatever else they use. If it's made of concrete, the structure should hold up.

I agree w/Anne and mike. I live in Mexico and we get hit by 1 strong hurricane at least once a year. Homes here don't get blown away like they do in the US. We build our houses of concrete block. It probably takes a little more to build but these houses are definitely solid rock. We might get flooded, of course, but houses stand firm.
I have never understood why the US builds wood (or whatever material they use) houses… and speaking of fires too, conrete block stands it all!
Joe Says:
June 5th, 2012 at 4:03 pm
Oh yeah strong concrete. I see a lot of cracked concrete sidewalks. Real strong stuff there.
Kelly Says:
October 29th, 2012 at 10:54 am
America, at least on the West Coast, we have used wood because we need our buildings to be flexible because of earthquakes. Concrete buildings break with the strain of a quake, while wooden structures sway and remain intact.
WSJ Says:
September 6th, 2013 at 12:26 pm
You cannot compare Bermuda to the States. First of all, it is a tiny island and therefore barely gets a direct hit. The worst one in the last 60 years was Fabian, and that only had winds of 120 MPH.
To the person in Mexico, a Category 1 hurricane is not exactly noteworthy in South Florida but it could definitely do lots of damage to other parts of the US depending on their building codes. I am sure there are places in Mexico that a Cat 1 could wipe out depending on economics and building codes.
To anyone in the states, do not crack your windows. In addition, do not waste time taping your windows. It is dumb, an old wive's tale and not only Andrew but countless hurricanes in the 2000's proved that it does not work. Shutters, plywood or impact-resistant are the way to go if you can.

I live in South Africa and we never experience any hurricanes but we do experience earthquakes. I did some research on why a concrete house is safer than a wooden house during hurricane. Research says that concrete houses are safer because they don't get blown away during a hurricane and are much cheaper to repair. Research says that there was a hurricane in the 1940's and it killed about 57 people and destroyed 484 wooden houses and damaged a market and a high school that was built with concrete. The cost to repair the houses was estimated to $50 million and the cost to repair the market and school was less than $200.

The Use of Narratives to Contextualize the Experiences and Needs of Unemployed, Underemployed, and Displaced Workers
Russell, Jessica C., Journal of Employment Counseling
The author examined the role of narratives used by unemployed, underemployed, and displaced workers seeking job training assistance through a government-funded One-Stop Career Center. Interviews with employees of a One-Stop Career Center provided insight on client rate of disclosure of personal narratives and how client narratives are used to facilitate the job search process. Specifically, data from the interviews suggest that narratives give career center employees insight on job seekers' background, barriers, and reemployment mind-set. Furthermore, the act of listening was seen as legitimizing job seekers' experiences. Implications of the findings are discussed.
A man blurts out as he enters the One-Stop Career Center, "I had been with the same company for over 15 years! I had an accident a few years back, and I was forced to go on disability. Now I am off and there are no employers willing to hire me." This experience represents what many are going through given the effects of economic globalization, outsourcing of jobs to foreign countries, and increased technological innovation. These changes have led to downsizing and corporate restructuring that have altered occupational opportunities and existing jobs (Drennan, 1988; Patton & McMahon, 2006; Rahim, 2001; Sales, 1995). The shift from a manufacturing economy to one that is based on information and services has left many adult workers unemployed and without skills to reenter today's job market (Davies, 1996). Additionally, December 2007 marked the beginning of a recession. At that time, the number of unemployed persons in the United States was 7.7 million and the unemployment rate was 5%. Three years later, the number of unemployed persons had risen to 14.8 million and the national unemployment rate stood at 9.8% (Bureau of Labor and Statistics, 2010).
The loss of a job can threaten both economic and psychological well-being (Kanfer, Wanberg, & Kantrowitz, 2001; Mallinckrodt & Fretz, 1988; McKee-Ryan, Song, Wanberg, & Kinicki, 2005; Paul & Moser, 2009). This brings to the surface issues of shame, guilt, decreased esteem, and overall negative effects on one's physical and mental health, including feelings of fear, anger, anxiety, and depression (Broman, Hamilton, & Hoffman, 2001; Cottle, 2001; Garrett-Peters, 2005). These outcomes are in part attributed to the fact that North American culture places great importance on the self as defined by occupation (Fryers, 2006). Thus, employment is a principal source of identity, providing not only income, but also social legitimacy (Jung & Hecht, 2004).
Employment support networks assist job seekers in restoring their motivation to seek a new job before they actually begin looking for employment. Social support has been reported to be therapeutic for and liberating from feelings of isolation; it also helps unemployed individuals combat feelings of inadequacy (for meta-analytic reviews see Hanisch, 1999; McKee-Ryan et al., 2005; Paul & Moser, 2009). Employment support groups assist individuals in raising their self-esteem and efficacy, both of which are essential traits for a job search (Drennan, 1988; Vinokur & van Ryn, 1993). Additionally, employment support networks facilitate individuals in moving beyond coping and toward the practice of career development techniques through networking and support that can help share information about job leads (Davies, 1996; Lambert, Eby, & Reeves, 2006; Wanberg, Watt, & Rumsey, 1996).
