How to Take Control
You always see advice about how you can do more with social media. How about some advice on control? Can control help you have more effective social media that makes you seem more human? Can you get more from your efforts simply by maintaining control? Lets check out four ways to have more control and why they are effective for radio personalities and radio stations.
1. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Youve heard it. The golden rule. Its so true in social media. Think of social media as a friendly environment where friendly works wonders. So, focus on helping others and see how well it works in making your social media much more productive.
2. Dont over share. Remember that being cool on social media is more about listening and validating others. If youre always focused on your message, your promotion, your contests, you may miss your biggest opportunities to score real loyalty points. People are loyal to the people that validate them. Get busy but make sure you are listening a lot and focused on listeners (not the station).
3. Think before you post. Thats right. This works just like the home game (for those of you who are married). You have to think before you put yourself out there on Facebook, Twitter, and other social media platforms. After all, your image is created every day by the way you present yourself in social media today. Remember: No matter what happens, you will reveal more about yourself than you think you will. Be sure its how you want to be remembered.
4. Do have a strategy; dont overthink your strategy. Don't overthink it to the point where you dont seem authentic. Being real is exceedingly critical in social media. Yes, you should have a plan. Think about what you want to accomplish, but remember that authenticity, creativity and being for real all count for a lot with listeners.
There is so much you can do in social media, but your biggest opportunities could involve just these four basic elements of control that allow you to engage listeners and use creativity, great content, control, and helpfulness to explode your effectiveness.

National Heritage Places - The Sydney Harbour Bridge
New South Wales
Known by locals as the 'Coathanger', the Sydney Harbour Bridge is considered the world's greatest arch bridge and is one of Australia's best-known and photographed landmarks. An engineering masterpiece, the bridge represented a pivotal step in the development of modern Sydney and was recognised internationally as a symbol of progress and a vision of a splendid future for Australia.
You can climb the Sydney Harbour Bridge to take in breathtaking views of the harbour, Sydney Opera House and city skyline.
Officially opened on 19 March 1932, the Bridge was included in the National Heritage List on its 75th birthday in 2007.

More information
The Sydney Harbour Bridge is considered the world's greatest arch bridge and is one of Australia's best known and photographed landmarks. An engineering masterpiece, the bridge represented a pivotal step in the development of modern Sydney and an important part of the technical revolution of the 1930s.
A bridge to span the harbour
The idea of building a bridge that spanned Sydney Harbour from the north to south was discussed as early as 1815, but it wasn't until 1900 that a design competition was announced. The competition failed to produce a successful design.
After the First World War, a general design for the Sydney Harbour Bridge was prepared by Dr JJC Bradfield and in 1922 the New South Wales Government awarded the construction contract to English firm Dorman Long and Co.
Bradfield's design positioned the Bridge as a key element in an integrated transport system including an extensive network of roads, and the rail and tram systems.
Building the Harbour Bridge
Construction started in 1924 and took 1400 men eight years to build at a cost of £4.2 million. The opening of the Sydney Harbour Bridge in 1932 was a momentous occasion, drawing crowds of nearly 1 million people from the city, regional centres and interstate.
The NSW Premier at the time, the Honourable John T Lang, officially declared the Bridge open, but before he could cut the ribbon, Captain Francis de Groot of the New Guard, disguised as a military horseman, slashed it with his sword. He claimed that the bridge should have been opened by member of the royal family. The incident has become a part of Australian folklore and a symbol of the perceived national character trait of rebellion against authority.
Today the bridge is often the centre of community ceremonial and celebratory occasions.
Experience the bridge
From the Bridge visitors can enjoy breathtaking views of the Sydney Opera House. These two outstanding examples of our national heritage represent Australia's most renowned iconic landmarks.
The Bridge Climb started in 1998 and attracts tourists eager to climb this magnificent monument for both the challenge and breathtaking views.
The dimensions of the finished bridge are:
- Height of top of arch – 134 metres above sea level
- Width of deck: 49 metres
- Clearance for shipping: 49 metres
- Total length of bridge: 1149 metres (including approach spans)

In memory of a young fan, Piranha Games offers a limited edition custom Jenner mech, with 100% of proceeds going to a cancer research fund.
Five year old Sarah Parries loved to play MechWarrior Online with her dad, Jon, but passed away from cancer earlier this year. Her friends in-game spread the word, and in response to a petition, Piranha Games launched a memorial fund.
The resulting Sarah's Mech Jenner – Sarah's favourite model – has a suitably customised exterior and a 10% XP boost. It's on sale for $10 until August 20, when it will be withdrawn from sale forever. Minus transaction costs, all sales go straight to the Canadian Cancer Society. The community has already pledged $30,000 at time of writing.

hey man, you lifted the waterproof rubber in order to fit the power cable. how did you put it back?I mean that with the power cable over there it may not be waterproof any more!
I am writing this guide in addition to my first guide to help others if they want to install a sub box into the Mk7 using a RCA convertor to create pre amps out.
Firstly I will add that this is not a simple job and I would not advise this to be done by a novice. How ever I hope my guide will make it easier for anyone trying to do the same. Also I will add for those that are screamish this does invole taking apart a 3 week old car, but absolutly no damage was done to my new little car.
So here we go.
Take out the front head unit, refer to my FIRST guide to do this. Once you have the head unit out you will have to disconnect two multi blocks from the rear of the unit, disconnect both and remove head unit to a safe place. The smaller multi block is just data cables. The connection you are interested in is the larger multiblock. When you look the block you will see 5 pairs of wires top n bottom plus a single cable on its own. The single cable on its own is the ignition live (only goes live when ignition is on). At the other end of the block you will see two fatter cables, the cable with black on it is the ground, and the other is the permannet live. The other eight cables which are a variety of colours are the speaker cables. The top row is the positive and bottom is negative.
Now take your RCA convertor on it you will have two positive speaker cables and two negative speaker cables. To avoid cutting cables you can push a bare end cable into the back of the multi blocks so push two positive into the top row and two positive into the bottom row. It is not important which speaker connection you use just as long as you use the same for both neg and pos. On your RCA convertor you will also have a positive and negative cable, again push the bare end cable from your RCA convertor into the appropriate neg and pos connection on the multi block. Now with your ampilifier kit you will be supplied with a long blue remote live cable, this cable is pushed into the back of the ignition live cable (the single cable on the multi block), this will mean your amp will on go on when your ignition is on.
Next you will have to feed your RCA cables, (supplied with your amp), your blue remote cable and your power cable to the rear of the car. First tie off your RCA cable and remote cable to something at the head unit so you dont pull them through.
It is fairly easy to feed your RCA cables and your remote cable down from the head unit to the floor. You can then tuck them in behind the carpet, and lead them to the small side panel on the passenger side.
Now you can take your main min 8 gauge power cable and connect it to the battery.
Then this cable can be fed down through a hole next to the washer bottle which will bring it out by the inner arch wheel trim. Thread it round the arch, and by the door hinge you will see some foam sound insulation, this can be moved to the side so the cable can be fed through the hinge to the interior.
Now lift up the rubber waterproof trim and feed 3 cables along it, the power cable the RCA cable and the remote cable, and they will now come out by the rear seats.
It is now possible to pass all 3 cables along the side of the back seat so that they come out in the boot.
Now just when you thought you were done you now have to create an Earth cable, this should be as short as possible and taken from the rear. I used one of the 13mm bolts that hold seat belt mounting in. Simple take out bolt connect your earth cable and put bolt back in.
Now the fun bit connect all those cable up to your amp. I am using a active sub, meaning the amp is bulit into the sub box. To test it temporarily reconnect the front head unit and dash and power it up to see if it all works, (remember to turn on your ignition).
It should all now come on. With me it all worked first time, I was very pround of myself.
You can now put the car carefully back together. I did this whole job without a single scratch and no damage to the car at all, the entire system could be taken out without any sign that had been there.
I hope this guide has been of some use. Any questions then please ask.

EmergingGrowth.com Reports on the January Effect and the biggest looser to benefit from it.
Category: Investment
Visit: EmergingGrowth.com
Miami, FL - December 18, 2012 (www.investorideas.com newswire) EmergingGrowth.com, a leading digital financial media company, Reports on The January Effect the biggest losers to benefit from it including Long Pine Resources (NYSE: LPR), GEVO Inc. (NASDAQ: GEVO), Supervalu, Inc. (NYSE: SVU) and others.
Feature your company on EmergingGrowth.com. Click here to find out how .
With the New Year only weeks away, investors are eagerly awaiting a yearly anticipated phenomenon known as the January Effect. The January Effect is simply a run on stocks, often following a poor December. Investors rush to buy securities prior the end of the year for a lower price, betting that the price will go up in January, and then dumping the stocks for a profit. A January Effect is often led by small-caps. According to Barron's, since 1926, small-cap stocks have beaten large caps 76% of the time in January. The best explanation offered for the January Effect is tax-related; that is, investors with portfolios that are weighted with small stocks sell off securities en bloc to claim venture losses and straight away reinvest after the New Year.
According to Jeffrey Hirsch of The Stock Trader's Almanac the January Effect is "Wall Street's only free lunch." Free lunch or not, the January Effect can have multiple causes depending on the years market performance as a whole. Tax-loss selling that takes place in December is, more often than not, limited to individual investors. The average investor often concentrates his trading on low priced, higher-volatility small-cap stocks. As a result, it makes sense that some tax-loss selling in December focuses on small-cap names. Another cause is attributed to institutional investors. Many want to dump losing propositions from their portfolios before their end- of-year annual reports. And finally, some investors postpone of the sale of profitable stocks that achieved capital gains until January in order to defer taxes until following year.
So who were the biggest losers of 2012 and most likely to benefit from the January effect in 2013? Lone Pine Resources Inc. (NASDAQ: LPR) at -85.31% performance for the year is at the top of the list. It is currently trading at $1.01 and has a market cap of $86 million. Gevo Inc. (NASDAQ:GEVO) with a market cap of $58.91 million had a dismal performance of -77.58% in 2012. Shares are trading at $1.50. SUPERVALU Inc. (NYSE: SVU) stands at -65.95% for the year and is trading at $2.70. Groupon (NASDAQ: GRPN), one of the most highly touted IPOs of last year, came in at number five on the list with a per year performance at -76.73%. They should have taken Google (NASDAQ: GOOG) up on it's off to buy at $6 billion prior to going public in November of last year.
A final thought on strategy. It looks like the time frame for the January Effect is shifting forward a few weeks. If you are unsure of how to get your 'free lunch' from the January Effect, try this alternative: purchase an S&P 600 small-cap exchange traded fund during mid December and sell it at the end of January. Such a strategy has yielded a 0.2% return over the past 10 years, compared with -0.9% loss in the S&P 1500. It has been successful in seven of those 10 years. Also you might be able to enhance performance by purchasing small-caps in mid-November, avoiding the worst of the underperformers, and in turn, selling in mid-January, to dodge the rush of sellers. Good luck!

Hello all. I'm back with a delicious goodness that comes in the form of chunky white spheres the color of pearls. Translated literally "pranhara" means losing your heart. It's like falling in love. Only better. because you can pop each one in your mouth to fall in love with it over and over and over again. Tell me that's a bad thing.
There are two steps to making pranhara. The first is to make mawa or khoya. The second is to make chana and then a quick stir over medium heat and you are ready to give them their traditional round shape.
The recipe has been slightly modified from tokjhalmisti.blogspot.com. Enjoy!!

Hosting Rich Media: Understanding the Reach of your Project
Understanding the potential reach of your rich media campaign can help you properly frame budget and technical expectations. Online campaigns are like parties - knowing how many guests you expect makes budgeting and planning much easier. By knowing the potential size of your online audience you can maximize your campaign's ROI (return on investment) and plan for scalability by working with partners if necessary.
Project Scope
Predicting site or project traffic is not an exact science. Marketing people will often quote industry take rates, while content creators or entrepreneurial visionaries will predict massive adoption of their ideas. It helps to understand your target audience as well as the general population of the Internet.
When sizing a rich media project you should keep two factors in mind - how many unique visitors do you expect, and how many concurrent users do you think you will reach? Knowing your expected number of unique visitors can help define your storage needs, revenue projections and other quantity based facets of your business. Knowing the maximum expected number of concurrent visitors (how many will hit your infrastructure at peak times) helps define the actual hardware/delivery requirements. The resources required for a steady stream of visitors (such as a banner ad delivery system or shipping company tracking system) are quite different from an event-based solution such as the online sale of a new music recording or exclusive online interview with a specific starting time.
According to Comscore.com, the total Internet audience for May 2009 was 193,825,000 unique users around the world. (source: http://www.comscore.com/) Use this number to help keep user projections in control. Assuming your marketing blast reaches every single user in the world, a 1% global take rate would generate 1.93 million potential unique visitors to your site.
It often helps to know how many visitors to the more popular Internet properties receive. These numbers often have the effect of a fire hose on the flame of marketing optimism. For example: Google is the current king, and received about 157 million unique visitors for the month of May 2009. Ebay.com, a top ten Internet property, received 72.4 million unique visits in June 2009. Facebook, an extremely popular social media site, received about 70 million visits. Do you think your project will reach more people than ESPN? They enjoyed 20 million visits in May.
Taking this concept further, let's divide that traffic by 30 days to get a monthly average, or 22 days if your site is primarily accessed only during the business week. Google traffic (157M visitors) breaks down to a daily average of 5.23 million unique visits per day.
If we assume that ESPN gets most of its traffic from people at work on weekdays, ESPN gets less than one million unique visitors per day. Of course, this simplification assumes a steady stream of traffic instead of spikes based on demand, but the point is to provide real world examples of how much traffic existing properties generate. If your marketing director projects that you will get one million visitors during the day, keep these numbers in mind. They are absolutely attainable! Ad campaigns can generate millions of visits over a day or two, just make sure you work with a provider or partner that can help plan for and react to such a situation.

As I wrote earlier in this thread, look it up. If the mythology is too complex for you then try American Idol. That should be right at your IQ level.

In response to the razor fast experimental plane of the Axis powers, the Allies decided to take a different route. Unable to match them for pure speed, they created a more maneuverable 3D model craft, capable of reaching higher altitudes and flying for longer durations. This is the story of the Sky Lords, an alternate history WWII aircraft that could have ruled the skies!

Figure 1.
Partitioning of various Drosophila species and outgroup species (Anopheles gambiae (Agam), Aedes aegypti (Aaeg), Apis mellifera (Amel), and Tribolium castaneum (Tcas)) based on 'exclusively shared NGPs' (NGPs found in each species in a clustered group and not found in any species outside this group - see Materials and methods). A box around a pair of species, a cluster and a species, or two clusters, signifies that they are inferred to be grouped together in the phylogeny. Numbers denote the actual number of 'exclusively shared NGPs' unique to each cluster. (a) Arm-indexed clustering within genus Drosophila. Genes with orthologs in all genus Drosophila species (see Materials and methods for species' names) are chosen to form NGPs. This clustering reveals subgenus Drosophila, subgenus Sophophora and melanogaster subgroup species to be distinct clusters. This binary partitioning validates the placement of Dyak (see text) and agrees with the currently understood phylogenetic relationships between other Drosophila species (see Discussion for details). (b) Relaxed clustering without arm indexing for NGPs, in order to include outgroup species that differ in chromosomal architecture (see Materials and methods). The set of common genes between all species, including outgroup species, is used to derive NGPs. Relaxing arm indexing results in loss of signal within the closely related melanogaster subgroup species (Dmel, Dyak, Dere) where Dmel + Dere, Dyak + Dere, and Dmel + Dyak are weak clusters with 16, 15, and 9 exclusively shared NGPs, respectively. See Discussion and Materials and methods for details.

She was from a world ruled by humans. Humans that didn't know about the things that went bump in the night. But she wasn't like the others. She knew what hunted from the shadows, things that made the darkest fairytales and nightmares pale in comparison.
But now, she's in a new world, equally dark and terrifying, embroiled in a great war, but the creatures she was used to avoiding even the sight of, weren't the same in this new world. Nothing was the same in this new world. And she finds that she's changing too. Will she find her way back to her world again, or will she make a new way for herself?

[North York] Aoyama Sushi
We went to Aoyama Sushi to celebrate Charles' dad's birthday. I've been meaning to try this Japanese-owned and operated restaurant for a while and I was really excited to bring his parents there.
The restaurant turned out to be a little gem in Scarborough and we were all very happy with the food.
We started with the maguro no tataki. The tuna is thinly sliced and slightly seared on the edges. The tuna tasted very fresh and went well with the tangy sauce.
We ordered the sashimi platter (for 2-3 people) to share among the four of us. The presentation of the platter was great! There was a good variety of sashimi, some of it we've never seen before. I had to ask the waitress to tell us the name of the fish because we couldn't figure it out by tasting it.
In addition to the common and recognizable sashimi, such as red tuna, amaebi (sweet shrimp), salmon, uni (sea urchin), scallops, there was hamachi (yellowtail), white tuna (albacore), saba (mackerel), and hirame (halibut). The waitress said the mackerel was from Japan! :)
I am not a huge fan of sashimi but I really liked the scallop and amaebi sashimi. Both were very fresh and sweet. I also tried the halibut sashimi and I liked the creamy and yet light taste of it. Charles' parents loved all the sashimi, especially the sea urchin. They said it was very creamy and sweet. I was a little hesitant but ended up trying a tiny piece of it. I've only had sea urchin once in Tokyo and couldn't get used to the flavour. The sea urchin at Aoyama was very creamy indeed, but was still too fishy for me. I guess I haven't acquired a taste for sea urchin yet…
I ordered some deep fried oysters. The oysters were fresh and tasty, but I think they batter was a bit too dense and the oysters were slightly overcooked. I prefer the deep fried oysters at Ematei…
I had originally order the unagi don because I read online that it was double-layered! Shortly after we placed our order, the waiter came back and apologized to us about their malfunctioning rice cooker. He said they wouldn't be able to cook fresh rice so it wouldn't be possible for us to get the unagi don. We had to go with the unagi alone but it turned out to be very very tasty! The unagi was saturated in a sweet sauce and it was very delicious. The layer of fat beneath the fish meat made the eel very succulent and tender. I was never a huge fan of unagi but I loved what I tasted!
The grilled black cod was delicious as well. The cod was lightly seasoned and grilled. The fish was flaky and juicy. We all wished that the portion was bigger!
We ended our meal with the spider roll. The spider roll was very big and long! I saw the chef making two rolls and putting both of them on the plate. We really enjoyed the spider roll. The sushi rice was cooked and seasoned to perfection. I think this was definitely worth it, given that the roll was completely stuffed with crispy and succulent soft-shell crabs.
We told the waiter that it was Charles' dad's birthday and they gave his dad a scoop of green tea ice cream with a little candle on it. They also gave him a nice "made in Japan" mug and his dad was very happy about it.
We definitely enjoyed our meal at Aoyama. The waiters were very courteous. They made sure that we always had tea and that everything was okay in spite of how busy they were. I'd like to go back to try the Omakase and have more grilled cod!

Rev Shark does an excellent job writing the trading diary for Real Money. Shark is one of my must reads everyday on RM.
Last week, he revealed his Ten Commandments of Trading:
There are many different ways to successfully trade the market, but there are certain things that all successful traders seem to have in common. Live those Ten Commandments and they shall reap a bountiful harvest! Go forth my friends and sin no more!
The Ten Commandments of Trading
I. Thou shall never stop educating thyself.
II. Thou shall have a plan.
III. Thou shall be disciplined.
IV. Thou shall be patient.
V. Thou shall strive to stay objective.
VI. Thou shall be humble and hold no fear of admitting mistakes.
VII. Thou shall act aggressively when the odds lie in thy favor.
VIII. Thou shall be persistent and stay optimistic.
IX. Thou shall stay mentally and physically healthy.
X. Thou shall protect thy capital.
Why is that common sense advice is surprisingly uncommon? Rev Shark has it in spades . . .

Rachel Hope Eggleston is often described as an "old soul". From an early age it was apparent that she loved to perform and entertain people: At the age of three she was dancing and participating in musical theatre, and it quickly became clear that she had an attention span and work ethic far beyond her years.

The spring of 2012 brought exciting new opportunities: Rachel landed her first role as a series regular in the ABC show
How To Live With Your Parents (For The Rest Of Your Life) playing Natalie the young daughter of Sarah Chalke's character Polly. Rachel also secured a starring role in the upcoming feature film Summer Snow.
Despite Rachel's talent and love for acting, she is really just a regular kid with a sweet spirit who loves to dance, swim, hula-hoop and relax at home
with her parents and two older brothers.

01. "America get ready to fall in love with Rachel Eggleston." - American Family Studios
02. "Rachel Egglestons heartwarming portrayal of Hallie shines and leaves you smiling." - American Family Studios
03. "...and to Rachel Eggleston, who plays my daughter. She's playing a five-year-old! Brad and I both said we've never worked with a child who's made you break on camera. She's made me crack up on camera before and she's playing a five-year-old! It's insane. She's really good. It's crazy." - Sarah Chalke
04. "Even Rachel Eggleston! And the only reason I say "even" is because she's a kid. And to have her be able to crack us up on camera is unbelievable." - Sarah Chalke
05. "Even with all the comedians in the cast, Chalke and Garrett agree the one actor who can consistently cause her colleagues to crack up during filming is Rachel Eggleston, who plays Polly's 5-year-old daughter, Natalie. (The rest of the cast can also rely on Eggleston to supply them with a forgotten line or missed cue, according to Garrett.) "I've never worked with a kid who's that talented as an actor," Chalke says. "Brad and I both said, we've never worked with a kid who's made us break on camera, like crack up laughing in the middle of a scene. She can improv. If you're doing a scene with her and you throw something out, she throws it back." - Sarah Chalke
06. "She's really talented." Adds Garrett: "She's unbelievable. You work with a lot of kids in this industry, and a lot of them want to be on TV. But Rachel really wants to act, and she's so gifted. She's a natural. She's great." - Brad Garrett
07. "Fortunately Chalke has another child to keep her company: Rachel Eggleston, who is apparently already an improv veteran at age five. Shes amazing, Chalke says. Ive never worked with a kid like her. None of us have. Brad and I said, Youre working with a person who can play a five-year-old kid who can make you break on camera. She can crack you up; she can improv. She will throw a line in at the last second try this, try that - and she nails it every time. - Sarah Chalke
08. "Little Rachel Eggleston stole my heart in this film. I predict we're going to see a lot more from her in the future." - Terri Blackstock
09. Summer Snow is a gift to families and Rachel Eggleston is a flat out star!" - Brian Wells

A 4-year-old girl was found alone on the north end of Lincoln Park near Melvindale early Saturday.
According to police, it took officers three hours to track down the girl's father. He was asleep inside his home at the time.
Police want to charge the man with neglect because two other children were also inside the home when the 4-year-old was discovered alone.
Child Protective Services is also involved in this case.

For 60 years, the village of Szelmenc has been split by a barbed-wire fence, a demarcation of post-World War II power politics. Over the decades the political and social development of the two countries – now Slovakia and Ukraine – has gone in different directions with one half of the village part of the West, the other part of the Eastern Bloc. Old people remember the united village and grieve for their loved ones left behind the border.
The film was pitched at the 2005 East European Forum, under the working title The Long Goodbye.

Alyosha broadens the view on the bronze statue dispute that strained ties between Russia and Estonia. Director Meelis Muhu interviews people near the statue. They either object to the symbol of national humiliation or remember the Great War and its victims; two groups build their own concept of history. Despite the different opinions, the greatest divide is surprisingly not between Estonians and Estonian Russians. There are pacifists with experience of the war in both camps, and the same applies to nationalists engaged in aggressive talk and action.

The mother's furious arguments flare up as her son gives his professionally restrained comments. Another woman has entered his life at last and the possessive mother cannot tolerate this. In its preciseness this grim and painful story is like family therapy, resembling Marcin Koszalka's first work Such a Nice Boy I Gave Birth to, in which he untangled the relationship with his mother by shooting with a hidden camera in his home.

A support battalion with the 1st Brigade Combat Team has the perfect nickname — Providers.
The 501st Brigade Support Battalion, 1st Brigade Combat Team, 1st Armored Division is dedicated to providing the support that the other six battalions in the brigade need, so they can do their mission whether in war or peacetime, said the battalion's new senior enlisted adviser, Command Sgt. Maj. David J. Lee Jr.
The job may not be glamorous, but the Providers make sure that the rest of the brigade has enough fuel, food, ammunition, medical support, transportation and maintenance to get their jobs done, Lee said.
"Sustainment is one of the warfighting functions that always have to be considered in any mission," said Lee, who took over as senior enlisted leader for the battalion Jan. 28.
Lee replaced Command Sgt. Maj. Robert D. Carter, who left to become the Garrison command sergeant major for BENELUX, the U.S. Army installations in Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg.
For Lee, a 42-year-old native of Brooklyn, N.Y., his new position represents a welcome return to Fort Bliss and El Paso. He and his family were stationed here in 2010-11 when he attended the U.S. Army Sergeants Major Academy.
"We like El Paso, minus the wind," he said with a chuckle. "The facilities at Fort Bliss are great. In my opinion, I think they are the best the Army has to offer right now."
The installation has undergone some big changes in just a few short years, Lee said.
"They hadn't even completed the 1st Armored Division headquarters when I was here last," Lee said. "Coming back this time, it's amazing where they've gone in about two years."
Fort Bliss provides a variety of training areas and state-of-the-art computer simulators that can be used for training, Lee said. The combination allows units to stay sharp and "be fiscally responsible in a constrained environment that the Army and all services are in right now, while still conducting quality training," Lee said.
Lee is a career logistician noncommissioned officer. Most recently, he served as the operations sergeant major for the 1st Theater Sustainment Command at Fort Bragg, N.C. Before that, he was the supply and services sergeant major for the 2nd Infantry Division at Camp Red Cloud in South Korea.
"It's one of those things: You have the Strykers, maybe the tanks or some helicopters, but you always have to think how do I sustain those weapon systems to accomplish the mission," Lee said.
As the new battalion command sergeant major, Lee recognizes his role is to support the battalion commander, Lt. Col. Jeffrey E. Baker, and make sure the unit is moving in the direction that the lieutenant colonel wants.
One of Lee's goals is to place an emphasis on developing leaders among the battalion's junior officers and its NCOs.
"My role is continual mentorship, training and preparing for our next mission," Lee said.
As a leader, he says, he is "an active listener" and someone who leads by example.
1st Sgt. Leland A. Cannon, first sergeant for Bravo Company, 501st Brigade Support Battalion, said Lee emphasizes creating a team and giving his fellow NCOs room to do their jobs.
"He wants to foster a command climate comprised of soldiers who are well-trained and ready to accomplish their mission, while empowering his leaders to make well-informed decisions to facilitate mission success," Cannon said. "Command Sgt. Maj. Lee gives us the latitude to make the decisions to effectively manage our companies while providing guidance and oversight."
Education: Bachelor's degree in business administration from Trident University International.
•Awards: Bronze Star (two oak leaf clusters); Meritorious Service Medal (one oak leaf cluster); Army Commendation Medal (three oak leaf clusters); Army Achievement Medal (six oak leaf clusters); Distinguished Order of Saint Martin; and others.
•Family: Married to Veronica of Greensboro, N.C. Three children: Chelsea, 21, a student at Texas A&M; Victoria, 15; and Alexis, 6.

Audrina Patridge's Boyfriend Threatens To Rip Head Off Love Rival
There's nothing like having two guys fight for your attention.
Reality star Audrina Patridge's on – off - on boyfriend Corey Bohan is once again showing off his bad boy credentials - this time by threatening a guy Patridge dated during the time the volatile couple had split.
One day before a new episode of Patridge's reality show "Audrina" aired, which showed her getting up close and personal with polo star Nic Roldan, Boham lashed out via Twitter and threatened his competition.
"@NicRoldan if I ever see u C--- I'm gonna rip your f------ head off," he Tweeted. "Take this as a friendly warning."
Audrina and Bohan, an Australian BMX racer, are back on once again and already Bohan's bringing plenty of drama to the romance.
Just days after reuniting last month, Bohan was arrested for public intoxication.
The Hermosa Beach Police Department charged the 29-year-old with a misdemeanor and he spent approximately eight hours in jail before posting $500 bail.
"I absolutely hate what Jack Daniels does to people," Patridge, 26, tweeted after the arrest. "Jack is a bad, bad man!"
Seems it might not be Jack Daniels that's the bad guy here.
We're just sayin....

The Secret Designers of Etsy.com
For those of you who have been living under a rock (or without an internet connection or penchant for online purchasing), here's some quick Etsy 411:
"Etsy is a website that provides the general public with a way to buy and sell handmade items as well as vintage items and craft supplies." (Thanks, Wikipedia!) Basically, the site is chock full of handmade/eccentric goodies – from vintage handbags to hand sewn dresses, created by regular people like you (or the craftier version of you). A lot of the designers on Etsy keep it eco-friendly, too, which def gets a thumbs up from me.
But, if you're a first time Etsy-peruser, it can be a little intimidating. So I'm here to break it down for you & showcase five of my favorite E-fashionistas. I found five sites that not only offer swoon-worthy threads, but are safe for your wallet (or Mom's Visa bill).
1) Every Little Counts . Okay, okay. Screen-printed tees are a dime a dozen. But I'm a sucker for romance, and I lurrve the creative sayings that adorn these breezy tees & tanks, like "Feel Like Making Love," "A Violent, Sensual, Sensitive Girl" and "I can't fight this feeling." Adorbs.
2) Sandmaiden. Sandmaiden is a little pricey, but the designs are unique and are made from all-natural fibers. Plus the clothes are SO. UNBELIEVABLY.COMFORTABLE. Not kidding. Just check out these little beauties and imagine how wonderful that organic cotton jersey blend would feel draped over your achy bod the morning after a night of heavy drinking. Even better? You'll be the only girl on campus with one, since most pieces on the site are one -of-a-kind designs.
3) Maiden Rapture Vintage Okay, the goods in this shop aren't all handmade, but who doesn't love vintage cardigans, dresses, blazers and accessories? This site makes it easy peezy to find the perfect unique piece from the 50's, 60's or 70's to add to your wardrobe. I'm obsessed with blazers and plaid lately, and I found plenty in this shop. And the prices are totes affordable.
4) Sarah Seven Made from recycled vintage and natural fabrics, Sarah Seven concocts clothes worth coveting (and saving beer money for). The shop offers dresses, skirts and shirts in "vintage-inspired" designs with a modern spin. Each piece is custom designed (you provide your measurements and bra size), so you know you're getting a perfectly unique, tailored fit every time. Even if you don't snag yourself a darling dress, the site is totally worth checking out just for the awesome photography. I want to believe that Miss Sarah Seven herself is the girl in the nerdy (yet somehow chic) green glasses, but I think that's just because I'm sitting here wearing my coke-bottle glasses & feeling lonely. Oh — and 5% of each purchase is donated to charities. Cool.
5) 75Rabbit For the patchouli-applying hippie that exists in every college student, enter 75Rabbit. With "far out" designs & duds made from recycled pre-used fabrics, what's not to adore? The only catch: The shop lists only one page of items at the moment. But the prices are reasonable & where the hell else are you going to find a flattering and totally unique dress with John Lennon's face on it?! Nowhere.
I've shared some of my faves – now it's your turn! Where do you shop on Etsy?

Exactly one month ago, the WSJ reported that Economists were optimistic: Economists Expect 'Solid Expansion' To Last Into 2006:
The U.S. economy is likely to continue its "solid expansion" into 2006, even as price spikes in oil and natural gas cause ripple effects in coming months, a new National Association of Business Economists survey of 43 forecasters says.
Hurricane Katrina's "relatively short-lived negative impact on the national economy" won't be enough to disrupt moderate growth, said the group's president-elect, Stuart Hoffman, chief economist at PNC Financial Services Group Inc. He announced the results of the survey, which was conducted Aug. 30 to Sept. 12, at NABE's annual conference here.
In the storm's aftermath, the forecasters pared their prediction for inflation-adjusted economic growth by 0.4 percentage point for this quarter and by 0.2 percentage point for the next one. Overall, they expect gross domestic product to rise 3.5% this year and 3.4% next year.
The forecasters expect strong employment growth next year, fueled partly by increased spending by federal, state and local governments, Mr. Hoffman said.
Energy prices continue to be a wild card. NABE forecasters predict that crude oil will cost $63 a barrel by year end, dropping to about $55 by the end of 2006. The survey didn't address the volatility of natural-gas prices.
How are they doin' so far?

Review: Logitech Ultrathin Keyboard Cover
updated 04:45 pm EDT, Thu April 26, 2012
Logitech's hybrid iPad keyboard
One of the iPad's main weaknesses has always been productivity. It's not a question of apps; while it has taken a little time for a native iPad library to develop, there's usually been some way of getting essential tasks done. It's that even with those apps, the iPad's technical limitations can make things unnecessarily difficult. Bluetooth keyboards can simplify writing, but options have so far been limited to either separate peripherals or full-sized cases, which carry their own tradeoffs. Logitech's Ultrathin Keyboard Cover attempts to bridge that gap -- in our review, we'll judge whether the gear is as convenient as its maker hopes it is.

Pramod Krishnamurthy, MD, MPH, Joins Fox Chase Cancer Center's Department of Medicine
PHILADELPHIA, PA (November 12, 2012)—Pramod Krishnamurthy, MD, MPH, has joined Fox Chase Cancer Cancer's pulmonary division within the department of medicine after completing a fellowship in interventional pulmonology at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, Mich. He has special interests in interventional pulmonology and its application in the diagnosis, staging, and treatment of lung and other cancers of the chest. His practice interests also include pulmonary disease in immunocompromised cancer patients, lung nodules, benign airways disease requiring airway interventions, acute and chronic treatment of pleural disease, and critical care medicine.
"As a specialist in the interventional pulmonology field, my goal is to provide safer minimally invasive procedural options to my patients, both for the diagnosis and treatment of lung, airways and pleural disease," says Dr. Krishnamurthy. "I came to Fox Chase because of its national reputation in the field of oncology and its commitment to fight cancer through compassionate patient care and research."
Dr. Krishnamurthy completed his pulmonary and critical care training at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center and Mount Sinai School of Medicine, both in New York. Prior to that, he completed a residency in internal medicine at Rochester General Hospital, an affiliate of the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry in Rochester, N.Y., where he served an additional year as chief medical resident. He earned his medical degree from Bangalore University in India and later attended the University of North Texas School of Public Health in Fort Worth, where he obtained a master's degree in public health, majoring in epidemiology.
Fox Chase Cancer Center, part of the Temple University Health System, is one of the leading cancer research and treatment centers in the United States. Founded in 1904 in Philadelphia as one of the nation's first cancer hospitals, Fox Chase was also among the first institutions to be designated a National Cancer Institute Comprehensive Cancer Center in 1974. Fox Chase researchers have won the highest awards in their fields, including two Nobel Prizes. Fox Chase physicians are also routinely recognized in national rankings, and the Center's nursing program has received the Magnet recognition for excellence four consecutive times. Today, Fox Chase conducts a broad array of nationally competitive basic, translational, and clinical research, with special programs in cancer prevention, detection, survivorship, and community outreach.
