Marcia Vazquez Rijos and Jose Ferrer Sosa helped plan the death of Canadian businessman Adam Joel Anhang and would not receive collection letters from Alex "El Loco" Pabon Colon, who tried vainly to get paid the $ three million he promised to change to commit murder, according to documents in the hands of federal authorities.
On September 22, phone records indicate that called Aurea Anhang several times and convinced him to go to dinner that night to reach agreements on divorce.
Aurea Vazquez Rijos, his sister Marcia and groom of this, Joseph, were accused of conspiring to murder her husband custom Aurea in events of September 22, 2005 in Old San Juan.
Tomorrow, Tuesday, Marcia and Joseph will be transferred from the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC, for its acronym in English) of Guaynabo to the Federal Court, in Hato Rey, to appear before Judge Bruce McGiverin to preview both. For Marcia, also see the bail hearing.
The three were arrested on 30 June, but Aurea was arrested at Barajas airport in Madrid, Spain, after traveling to Italy, where he lived since he moved in 2008, shortly before a grand jury the accused.
According to the affidavit of the agent of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI, for its acronym in English) who investigated the case, Pabon Colon was contacted by authorities in April 2008, and was then voluntarily confessed that he murdered and Anhang who planned the crime were Aurea, Marcia and Joseph.
Initially, Marcia and Joseph Pabon told Columbus that Aurea had problems with her husband, who allegedly mistreated. Then, according to Pabon Colon told the agent signing the affidavit, Aurea met in the business of it, Pink Skirt, which was operated by Marcia and Joseph. At one point, Joseph said he wanted to "take care of the problem" and offered him $ 2 million. Then, the four met and maintained telephone contact.
The September 21, 2005, all met in Pink Skirt, and confessed Pabon Colon, had the impression that they wanted Aurea, Marcia and Joseph was to give him a beating to the employer. Then they were all on the bus Aurea white Porsche Cayenne to another business, where Aurea said he wanted to murder him and offered him a check to buy a gun, but Pabon Columbus would not accept a check. According to the admission of Pabon Colon, Joseph told Aurea that offered $ 3 million and he did. Then the woman told him that the next day would park in the garage and to "do what he had to do."
On September 22, phone records indicate that called Aurea Anhang several times and convinced him to go to dinner that night to reach agreements on divorce. At 9:00 pm, Pabon Colon received a call from Jose, who told him he had to kill him that night because he thought Anhang filing for divorce the next day.
Given the little time I had, Pabon Colon could not get a gun, but stole a kitchen knife and gloves from a nearby restaurant and watched as Aurea and Anhang left a restaurant and walked to the parking lot. Pabon Colon simulated talking on a cellphone, when Aurea nodded his head to let him know that the man who was with her, was the person who was killed. He took a loose cobblestone and followed.
Pabon Colon Anhang approached him and asked for money. Anhang, he told the FBI agent, gave him a fist in the face and there was a struggle. Aurea Anhang shouted: "Run, baby, run" and Pabon Colon gave the cobblestone head several times. Then he took the knife and stabbed him repeatedly.
According to witnesses, Aurea watched a short distance and did not scream and tried to stop the attack on her husband. Pabon Colon dropped the knife and gave it to the paver by the head, but not so strong as to Anhang, because in previous conversations she said the incident had to be "real".
Pabon Colon, who pleaded guilty to these facts and is awaiting sentencing, he fled to the neighborhood La Perla. Then he asked a friend to take him by car for the area where the incident occurred, in the corner of Moon and San Justo, to see if the injured had died.
The convicted today said Aurea sent several letters to collect the money, but they answered that they had no money. It was learned that the authorities have such missives.
The FBI tried to interview José Ferrer, but this Pabon said he knew because he had bought Colón controlled substances. He claimed not to remember anything about the 21 or September 22, 2005 and refused to take the polygraph test.
In the federal agent's affidavit, indicated that Aurea "would not cooperate with the authorities regarding the murder of her husband," and he fled to Italy to avoid cooperate or face possible charges against him. There remade his life and allegedly had twins, who now have four years.

Remember Me
With over three decades on the scene, Bad Religion are iconic stalwarts of the Southern California punk movement. Comprised of equal parts musicianship, rancor and intelligence, the band is known for their onslaught of well-crafted, finely executed songs of social commentary and sardonic wit. Tickets to their live concerts bear the holder witness to relentless, rapid-fire sets that span the breadth of their career, including entertaining diatribes of insight from frontman Greg Graffin. Their 2013 European tour featured over 40 concert dates across 15 countries, treating fans to extended sets of their decade-spanning catalog. Following the release of 2013's True North, which garnered positive reviews and peaked at No. 19 on the Billboard 200, the band kept fans guessing with the release of Christmas Songs, an album of holiday covers done in the band's signature spitfire style.
Since their inception in the early '80s, Bad Religion has remained vital to the identity of punk and hardcore. Their gold-certified 1994 album Stranger Than Fiction is a classic of the genre, gaining the band widespread attention and their first bana fide hit with the prescient "21st Century (Digital Boy)." In 2002 the band released The Process of Belief, garnering another round of praise from critics for hit single "Sorrow." With a whopping 17 studio albums and two live albums, Bad Religion has achieved commercial success without compromising their upstart ideals, and a legion of dedicated fans looks forward to their 2014 tour dates.

Florida State landed one of the fastest rising prospects in the country earlier this week. After amazing performances in the 5A state championship game and the CaliFlorida all-star game, Lakeland defensive tackle Kendrick Stewart is shooting up the recruiting rankings. Florida State finally offered a scholarship last month and he made a commitment after an in-home visit from defensive line coach Odell Haggins.
"No, I'm not going to visit them," Stewart told Warchant.com, "I'm going to Florida State.
The 6-foot-1, 275-pound defensive tackle will visit FSU the weekend of January 21.
In last weekend's CaliFlorida game Stewart recorded five total tackles, with four of them going for loss including two sacks. He also pulled off a running back-flip after one of his sacks.
Stewart runs the 40-yard dash in 4.72 seconds, has a max bench press of 425 and squats over 500 pounds. As a junior, he recorded 56 tackles and seven sacks on his way to earning all-state honors for Class 5A. Stewart is already qualified and carries a 3.25 core GPA.

There remains a sizable disparity in online ad spending among the 2012 GOP candidates.
There remains a sizable disparity in online ad spending among the remaining GOP presidential candidates. The most recent data shows Rick Santorum - who leads Mitt Romney in national polls as they head into primaries in Michigan and Arizona - has spent just 8 percent of the amount the Romney camp has put towards online advertising.
The gap is much larger for Ron Paul. His campaign - despite its young, digital-media driven following - has spent less than 0.1 percent of Romney's web ad expenditures.
Newt Gingrich, on the other hand, has edged up to second place in the online ad spending race among Republican presidential hopefuls. Still, his campaign has spent just around 15 percent of Romney's online ad total.
The tallies:
To arrive at these numbers, ClickZ Politics analyzed Federal Election Commission reports showing expenditures by the presidential candidates from throughout 2011 til the end of January 2012.
Many would argue that Paul's campaign would benefit from more online ad spending to harness the powerful grassroots support he has garnered across the web, to turn that support into campaign donations, volunteers, and signups to build his list.
Paul himself, in a CNN Republican debate on Wednesday, complained that the biggest misconception challenging his campaign is "The perpetuation of the myth by the media that I can't win." He went on to suggest that the electability misconception is not present among his rally attendees. The Paul campaign has not responded to recent inquiries from ClickZ News regarding its online strategy.
Ironically, one of the biggest online ad spenders this election season is Endorse Liberty, a Super PAC backing Paul. The group has spent around $3 million on online advertising supporting the Texas congressman's 2012 bid.
All together, GOP candidates, including dropouts like Jon Huntsman and Rick Perry, spent around $5 million on online advertising through January. Along with the Republican National Committee, the total reaches just over the $5 million mark.
While the Romney camp has remained dedicated to buying online advertising, spending $1 million alone in January, the campaign appears to be shifting some spending away from Targeted Victory, the digital consulting firm that had been handling the bulk of the online ad buys. The campaign spent $700,000 on online advertising in January with American Rambler Productions, a consulting outfit reportedly comprised of top Romney advisors. Around $300,000 went through Targeted Victory in January.

If you have saved your partner/couple as part of your online registration account, and indicated them during registration, we will make every attempt to house you together.

We can generally accommodate these requests up until the day of the workshop.
Can I Sleep in My Car, RV, or Tent?
To reduce our environmental impact, we do not offer camping (car or tent) on property. There is camping nearby both north and south on Highway 1.
See the Big Sur Camping Guide at http://www.bigsurcalifornia.org/camping.html for details.
Can I Come Take a Tour and Just Look Around?
Unfortunately, we do not offer guided public tours. To preserve the sanctity of the Esalen experience, self-guided tours and walkabouts are also prohibited.

What Time Should I Check Out?

Can I Bring a Guest or my Spouse?
Unfortunately, no. We are small by design (with only 125 beds on property) and when you make the pilgrimage to Esalen you (and you only) become part of the community. For this reason, and to protect the privacy and experience of our other community members, we request that you not bring visitors or guests.
Can I Bring my Child?
Yes, although children must be supervised at all times and additional fees may apply. Two full-paying adults housed in standard, premium or Point House accommodations may have their children stay with them for a meal charge of $20 per child per day ($10/day for children under 6).
Day care may be available through our Gazebo Park school for an additional fee.

For all family workshops beginning after January 1, 2015, the fee for children under 10 years of age is $100 for a weekend and $250 for a 5-day workshop.
What Payment Methods/Credit Cards do you Accept?
We accept cash and checks and all credit cards except Discover.
How Can I Market My Workshop?
A few things make a big difference. First, craft a very concise and compelling workshop description and include a good current photo of yourself.
Make sure you publish your Esalen workshop page link on your website, your Facebook wall as an event, and if you use Twitter, via Twitter.
Make sure to begin promoting your Esalen workshop to your prospect list at least 6 months in advance via email and phone.
Distribute the Esalen catalogs that you are given as an Esalen leader. If you have any related books or youtube videos, make sure to let us know so we can promote you through Amazon and Youtube.
It is also helpful to create a PDF flyer and we can help you with a logo and images to use to make it nice visually. See our logos, photos, and templates page for some digital files to make this process easy.
Contact our Marketing Department at email@example.com for more resources.
I need Audiovisual (A/V) Equipment. Can Esalen Provide it?
Esalen does provide basic audio/visual equipment for our workshops and private conferences. Workshops with elaborate a/v set-ups would need to be discussed well in advance on a case-by-case basis.
How Many Hours of Class Time are in a Typical Esalen Workshop?
A weekend workshop consists of approximately 10 hours of class time; a 5-day workshop consists of approximately 26 hours. A 7-day workshop consists of a total of 36 hours.
What Are the Qualifications to Teach at Esalen?
Esalen usually works with leaders who have a deep understanding and level of experience in their field.
Usually they have teaching experience, or can demonstrate an ability to design curriculum and hold a group. Often, leaders have an existing student base and teach topics that have a broad appeal, but we do consider any and all workshops that are aligned with our mission and vision.
How Long Until I Hear from Esalen About My Workshop Proposal?
We will send you a confirmation email once we receive your proposal. We schedule a year in advance, so it could take a year or more for us to have room to schedule your workshop if accepted.
Unless you hear otherwise, it is possible that your workshop will be scheduled in the future but there isn't currently space. If your program is not going to be scheduled, we will contact you in writing.
We have the blessing of receiving many more proposals than we could possibly schedule. Please do not take it personally if we are unable to schedule yours.
Will My Cell Phone Work at Esalen? Is there Internet Access?
Esalen is located approximately 45 miles from "civilization," and there is currently no cell coverage. This isolation and tranquility, while deepening the experience of your stay at Esalen, can also be a significant change. While there is no cell service, there are three pay phones and calling cards available in the bookstore.
We use a bulletin board for important messages and calls from home and offer a few wired Internet kiosks for limited use. Wireless internet is available in the lodge anytime but during mealtimes.
Is There a Pharmacy or a Doctor on Property?
We carry only basic sundries in our Bookstore. The nearest pharmacy is 40 miles away in Carmel, so you will want to make sure to bring your prescription medications with you.
Esalen does have an on-call doctor for emergencies, but there are no other medical services available on site. If you will require medical attention or supplies during your stay, please come prepared to administer to your own needs, or make advance arrangements with the Big Sur Health Center in Big Sur.
Is There an ATM on Property?
Please bring sufficient funds for incidentals, as Esalen does not have an ATM, nor are we able to cash checks. We do accept cash, checks and credit cards as payment, however.
Can I Smoke? Is Smoking Allowed?
Smoking is permitted in designated outdoor areas only. It is not permitted in accommodations or meeting areas or near the lodge and outdoor deck during mealtimes.
What if my Roommate Snores?
All of our accommodations are shared. Please come prepared (nose strips, earplugs, etc.) as you or your roommate may snore.
Can I Bring my Dog? Cat? Other Pet?
Sorry. Other than animals in service, pets are not allowed on the property.
Do You Have a Safe or a Place to Keep my Valuables?
Unfortunately, the Esalen office has no facilities to safeguard your valuables. For peace of mind, it is best to leave them in either the locked trunk of your car or at home.
Will I need a flashlight?
Our property is dimly lit at night, allowing guests to fully enjoy and appreciate the night sky. Please bring a flashlight for use while walking on the grounds after dark.
Can I bring my stash?
In accordance with state and federal laws, the possession or use of illegal drugs on Esalen grounds is strictly prohibited.
What if I lose something? Is there a lost and found?
To inquire about items left behind from your Esalen visit, please send an email including your name, the date you checked out, and a description of the missing item/s to email@example.com, or leave a message at 831-667-3019.
Must I Get Naked? Is Esalen a Nudist Colony?
The hot springs at Esalen have been in use for over 6,000 years and are clothing-optional. Nudity is common in the baths and the swimming pool but by no means mandatory.
We encourage each individual to find their own edge between comfort and growth, either wearing a swimsuit or not, knowing that the environment we strive for at Esalen is one of personal sanctuary and respect for the human body.
For those who do choose to use the springs, in a bathing suit or without, daily or once in a lifetime — the hot springs experience embodies much of what continues to make Esalen a singular place of adventure, contemplation, and community.

Do You Offer Assistance/Accessiblity for Disabled Persons?
We are committed to accommodating guests who have disabilities. If you have a disability and think you might need assistance participating in a workshop or other Esalen activity, please give the office as much advance notice as possible about your needs. We require a minimum of 72 hours' notice to arrange for accessible accommodations. If you will need sign language interpretation at an Esalen workshop, we require at least two weeks' notice to arrange for interpreter services. In all cases, we will do our best to assist you with your needs.
Although we are in the process of increasing our disability access, access to some parts of our property continues to be difficult. Although many of our paths are paved, they are extremely steep due to our cliff-side setting, which is the steepest meeting of land and sea in the continental United States.
How do I get to Esalen? How far is Esalen from the Nearest Airport?
Esalen is approximately three hours from SFO, 2 and a half hours from San Jose Airport (SJC), 2 hours from SLO, and an hour and 15 minutes from Monterey Airport (MRY).
From the north:
- If you are driving from San Francisco or points north, take Route 101 south.
- At Prunedale, take Exit 156 west to the Monterey Peninsula and Highway 1.
- Take Highway 1 south approximately 60 miles, passing Monterey, Carmel, and Pfeiffer Big Sur State Park. Nepenthe, a popular restaurant located on the ocean side of Highway 1, is 11 miles north of Esalen.
From the south:
- Those driving from the south should take Route 101 north to San Luis Obispo and then Highway 1 to Esalen. We are approximately 100 miles north of San Luis Obispo.
- When you reach Lucia, a bend in the road where there is a restaurant, and motel, you are 10 miles south of Esalen.
From either direction, watch for the Esalen Institute sign on the west (ocean) side of the road.

This will be a new continuity, a new version of Batman unconnected to Nolan's films. Naturally they'll recast the role as they've done many times before. Bale was the seventh actor to play Batman in live action on the big screen, and he certainly won't be the last.
- Henry Cavill probably doesn't have a choice in the matter. He's doing the film, since Warner Brothers will have likely contracted him for 2-3 sequels should Man of Steel be a box office hit (which it will).
There are conflicting rumors about whether the JL movie will be in continuity with any of WB's solo superhero movies. It's been hinted that they might set them all in separate continuities, in contrast to Marvel's approach. But that's only a rumor at this point. We don't really know anything for certain at this stage.

This was the worst living experience I have ever had. The people were rude and the apartments are extremely small for the amount of rent you pay. The pool is extremely dirty all of the time. The hot tub is always closed. They had a building burn down while I was living there and they never gave any of the tenants a reason to why the building caught on fire. They then never fixed it and I wouldn't be surprised if it were still not fixed. I had a toilet that would constantly run and clog. I was paying for 2 bathrooms, but was only able to use one. Maintenance would come and "fix it", but I'd be calling the office a few days later with the same issue. They never did fix it. My dishwasher flooded my entire kitchen the first month I moved in and maintenance came in to fix it and flooded my counters and left a huge mess that was left to me to clean. They also add on extra fees after you sign your lease and cannot describe them for you. They are currently trying to bill me for 5,000 dollars because I moved out 2 months early. That is equal to 6 months of rent. There was also close to absolutely no damage to the apartment when I moved out. When I moved out I was told I would be billed for the remaining 2 months, which I was completely fine with. The person who keeps calling me to collect the money is refusing to speak with my lawyer. He keeps calling and harassing me telling me he doesn't believe I have a lawyer, proceeding to laugh at me, threaten me, and then hangs up on me. Then calling me back a few days later to demand his 5,000 dollars. This is by far the most difficult living experience I have ever had to deal with. Think twice before you move into this complex --- or any of Greystar/Riverstone complex.

We have been living at Mountain Run for the past year and can't wait until our lease is up- We have had multiple problems with our A/C and heater- our A/C would run and the apartment would not get cool; it was like the A/C was bad and it didn't have a good fan to push the air through the vents. AND there is only one vent for the whole living room/kitchen area which is over near the hallway. With the heater, it would run on it's own. We have to keep the thermostat at 80 degrees to have it feel like 70. All the maintance/office did each of the 7-8 times we called them out was either change the thermostat or tell us that we should open the vents more, like we were stupid for not doing that. I even talked to the manager to have him help and he said he would call us after Christmas break to make sure we were taken care of- the heater was never fixed and he never called. Good management skills... Maintance people are REALLY nice, but I think Mountain Run doesn't want to pay the money to change an A/C/heater unit to make a tenant happy. ALSO, the apartment seems like all the problems are just painted over instead of fixed- our doors don't shut right because they have been painted over so many times; our kitchen cabinets don't close all the way because they are falling apart; there are cracks between the carpet and the linolium in the kitchen and bathroom and we have seen and watched all kind of bugs crawl in through there; our front door is off hinge and you can see daylight through the cracks of the door- I absolutely do not recommend this apartment complex... Look within a 2 mile radius and you can find BETTER apartments for CHEAPER.

I've lived there for two years. During my stay, I never got my referral check, even after I asked them every month. The office continued to make excuses why it would take so long, finally I just gave up. When I was moving out, management wanted me to pay a full month's rent because they lost my notice to vacate, they didn't want to take my word, so I had to show them a photocopy of the agreement. They kept raising my rent after every lease renewal but I suppose that is the norm among apartments (not very good business though). You get your average kinks that you do in every apartment: dryer doesn't dry well, closet shelves fall apart, AC doesn't work well. I had the biggest problem with my toilet, the water would leak from the bottom. Maintenace would do temporary fixes even after I told them it was a repeated occurence. There are a lot of people there that shouldn't have been allowed to move in (the type that steal your stuff). The good? nice appliances, Horse and Angel is next door, nice view of Sandias, and Smiths is close. You might have better luck elsewhere but the way these places are run, good luck!

LA FitnessRead MoreWading through indoor heated pools, the instructors at British Swim School teach independent swimming skills to learners aged 3 months and older, adhering to a curriculum devised by British national swimmer Rita Goldberg. The 30-minute one-on-one sessions and small-group lessons, containing six or fewer swimmers, elucidate essential techniques for water safety and the importance of speaking fluent manatee. Swimboree (ages 3 months–3 years with parents) and Young Minnows sessions (ages 1–3 years without parents) teach wee swimmers basic water-survival skills, such as the back float. Turtle One and Turtle Two classes focus on freestyle, backstroke, and breaststroke maneuvers, honing more structured swimming skills in older kiddos. British Swim School's Shark courses enhance stamina and speed and teach even more demanding strokes, such as the butterfly and little-known mountain-goat flail. Certain British Swim School classes require parents to participate in the water or to supervise from the pool deck, and adults-only lessons allow grown-ups to refine their own abilities without the supervision of a toddler.8181 Northwest 12th StreetDoral, FL US

Bigelow Tea And ConservationFriday, July 31st, 2015
For Bigelow Tea, conserving land and caring for the environment is a top priority. That's why the Charleston Tea Plantation is far more than just a place to grow the tea leaves that are harvested for Bigelow's American Classic Teas. The tea garden on South Carolina's Wadmalaw Island is a thriving example of the Bigelow family's commitment to conservation.
Here's the story. In the book "My Mother Loved Tea," David Bigelow explains that his family got a phone call from one of the plantation's original owners asking for help to save it from being shut down. It hadn't produced tea for a number of years, yet it was still a much-loved local treasure.
At first, the Bigelow family was torn about bidding on the plantation, but when they learned of a real estate developer's interest, they sprung into action. After obtaining the property in 2003, and giving it a little TLC, the Bigelows opened Charleston Tea Plantation three years later.
Today, the tea fields contribute to local tourism and economic growth as tea lovers flock to see the gardens and sample the made-in-the-USA teas! Thanks @Tom Williams for posting that it's "A great place to visit. Truly one of a kind." When it comes to sustainability, Bigelow Tea knows that taking steps to preserve green spaces is the right thing to do.

Just bought a 913 10.5 driver to replace my 910 driver of the same loft.
Love the new 913 but have changed the setting from B2 for the 910 to C3 on the 913 to get the same desired ball flight. This gives me a slight draw.
Juist wondered if you are seeing different settings when players have switched.
I upgraded my 910 to a 913 same loft, shaft and setting. Gained +15 yards and narrowed my dispersion.
Same shaft? The stock shafts have been upgraded for 913.
Hi, Depending on the shaft and loft, we are seeing both - players staying the same and players switching. The new 913 D2 does have slightly different launch characteristics than the 910 D2. It has less spin due to the CG being more forward and it will not draw as easily as the 910 D2 so moving the setting up to C3 makes sense if you were on the lower end of spin and launch with your 910.
Is it the same shaft in both clubs? The ball flight is largely determined by the shaft. You could try to switch the shaft from the 910 into the 913 and you should have similar results.
thanks, I am using the same shaft in both, but was having a harder time turning over the 913
Interesting. I had pretty much the same ball flight on the 910 and 913 in the same settings/shafts. Maybe the difference is that I prefer to hit the driver with very little draw/fade bias. Sounds like the lower spin doesn't impact this type of ball flight as much as it does if you tend to draw the ball a bit which would make sense. That's the cool thing about the adjustable hozel that you can dial in a club to perform to your expectations.

iVend Dashboards comes as an, integrated part of iVend Enterprise Retail Management Suite. It is a set of pre-packaged Business Intelligence tools for the management of the Retail Enterprise. Seamlessly integrated into iVend Retail, iVend Dashboards leverages transactional data of the overall retail environment to generate context-specific detailed insight, which is functional and actionable.
Retail-specific, intuitive Dashboards provide strategic and tactical insights for faster and effective decision-making. For insight on the move, iVend Dashboards can be opened on compatible iOS and select models of Android devices, as they make use of proprietary iVend APIs .
Succinctly put, deriving meaningful and actionable information from accrued retail data was never easier.
Business Benefits
Increase Sales-Actionable insights
Resolve midseason inventory adjustments. For example, once a retailer knows which items are fast-moving or slow-moving, the retail store will never be underinvested in fast moving, high-margin areas. Using Retail Dashboards, the retailer can see real-time stock-out information and very quickly find out which items are missing, then redo order management or pricing.
Draw insights into customer buying patterns
iVend Dashboards help retailers chalk out relevant, personalized and targeted offers via the customer's channel of choice, increasing customer satisfaction and incremental revenue while eliminating promotional waste.
Driving revenue, protecting margins and earning customer loyalty
Dashboards help retailers track the variance of customer behaviours, week on week, month on month, year by year among channels, enabling segmentation. Hence, then they can strategically align their operational functions in accordance.
Provides ability to analyse, act and maximize profits
Receiving early cues for emerging trends, changes in attitudes and the need to make changes in purchase decisions can help in averting situations of over-stock or possible stock-outs.
Information representation on a high, aggregated level
iVend Dashboards helps to influence customer behaviour such as frequency, upsells, cross-sells, and market basket-size using rewards like tiered loyalty programs, exclusives and pre-sales that are relevant to the customer, while enhancing retailer profitability. With iVend Dashboards, it is easier to provide information through unified views of data preventing conflicting interpretations and decisions.
Displaying data in context, e.g. by benchmarking KPI values against comparable values, iVend Dashboards provides user-specific information in a role-based environment, enabling faster decision making and avoiding information overload and clutter.

Worst quake in Potch historyComment on this story
Rustenburg - An earthquake felt in various parts of the country on Tuesday was the worst in recent Potchefstroom history, a North West University professor said.
"In my 23 years in Potchefstroom this was the worst tremor. Doors and windows rattled," said Professor Johannes Froneman of the University's Potchefstroom campus.
He said the tremor lasted less than a minute and no damage was reported.
"When it started a repair man was stepping on his ladder to repair an air conditioner in the office. He had such a fright he stepped off.
"I looked at the ceiling 1/8and 3/8 prepared to take cover under my desk," he said.
In Ventersdorp about 55km from Potchefstroom, resident Solomon Mere said he was at work when they heard a heavy strange sound approaching.
"It was as if something heavy was coming. We left our office and rushed to the street to see it. We could not see anything and suddenly the earth vibrated under our feet," he said.
"The vibration lasted for about ten seconds. I was so shocked."

We created Pandora to put the Music Genome Project directly in your hands
It's a new kind of radio –
stations that play only music you like
The concept of the Foremen was conceived by the band's leader and songwriter Roy Zimmerman when he discovered an album by the Wayfarers in a record store bargain bin. Inspired to create a band to parody the folk tradition, Zimmerman recruited multi-instrumentalist Doug Whitney and upright bass player Andrew Corwin. After releasing a live album, Sing It Loud, on Metaphor, a label owned by Zimmerman and his wife, the Foremen were heard at a party by Jim Ed Newman, the head of the Warner/Nashville label. Newman was so impressed by what he heard that he signed the group to a recording contract with Warner Brothers' Reprise subsidiary and co-produced two albums: Folk Heroes, which continued the Foremen's early folk-revival approach, and What's Left, which added elements of Southern California pop and rock. Neither album, however, proved commercially successful, and Zimmerman left the band. Although the Foremen continued to perform, they've done very little since his departure. ~ Craig Harris

November 26, 2015
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (AP) -- Two former Chattanooga Police Department officers have told an administrative law judge they did not use excessive force in restraining a halfway house inmate who was injured last year.
Adam Cooley and Sean Emmer were fired by Police Chief Bobby Dodd after reviewing the incident that left Adam Tatum with eight leg fractures on June 14, 2012. They are seeking reinstatement to the department.
Authorities said Tatum brandished a knife at another inmate and was later found to have cocaine in his system.
The Chattanooga Times Free Press reported that testimony established Emmer struck Tatum 44 times with a metal baton. The former officers said they followed their training.
The hearing resumes Wednesday.

Stocks, Euro, Commodities Fall as Rating Companies Assess Summit
Stocks, the euro and commodities tumbled as Moody's Investors Service and Fitch Ratings said last week's summit did little to ease pressure on Europe's struggling governments. Intel Corp. led a retreat in technology companies after cutting its fourth-quarter revenue forecast.
The Standard & Poor's 500 Index lost 1.5 percent to 1,236.47 at 4 p.m. in New York and the Stoxx Europe 600 Index tumbled 1.9 percent. The euro weakened 1.5 percent to $1.3187, approaching its 2011 low. The 10-year Italian bond yield increased 20 basis points after earlier surging as much as 43 points. The cost of insuring against default on European government debt approached a record. Zinc and cotton lost at least 3.4 percent and natural gas slid to a 27-month low.
The EU summit offered few new measures and doesn't diminish the risk of credit downgrades on European nations, Moody's said today. Equities and the euro extended losses as Fitch said a comprehensive solution has not yet been offered and predicted a "significant economic downturn" in the region. The onus remains on governments rather than the European Central Bank to solve the crisis, Bundesbank President Jens Weidmann told Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung.
"The big issue is: Did the European summit do enough to stave off these downgrades or not?" Nick Sargen, chief investment officer at Fort Washington Investment Advisors in Cincinnati, which oversees more than $39 billion, said in a telephone interview. "Most people come to the conclusion that downgrades on the region's sovereigns are easily justifiable. If the rest of the world is slowing down, we too would feel some of that impact."
Retreat Following Rally
The S&P 500 retreated after climbing for two straight weeks, its first back-to-back weekly advance since October. Technology, energy and financial shares were the biggest drags on the index among 10 groups today.
The S&P 500 has struggled to stay above its 2010 closing level of 1,257.64 since topping it during the last week of October after slumping below it for almost three months. The index has shown a year-to-date gain during 18 sessions since Oct. 27, only to later turn lower for 2011. It is currently down about 1.7 percent for the year, led by a 21 percent slide in financial shares.
Intel sank 4 percent, the most since August, as the world's largest maker of semiconductors cut its forecast for fourth-quarter revenue, saying supply shortages for hard drives are prompting computer makers to cut orders for other components. The shortages, stemming from the worst flooding in Thailand in 70 years, will continue into the first quarter, Intel said.
Banks Retreat
Citigroup Inc., Bank of America Corp. and JPMorgan Chase & Co. tumbled at least 3.4 percent to lead a retreat in 23 of 24 stocks in the KBW Bank Index, which lost 2.5 percent.
JPMorgan's chief U.S. equity strategist, Thomas Lee, forecast the S&P 500 will climb to 1,430 by the end of next year, a 14 percent rally from last week's close, and named financial stocks as the firm's "top pick" for 2012. Lee listed eight reasons for the advance, including an easing of Europe's debt crisis by the second half of the year, further recovery in the U.S. housing market, the American election cycle and a "selective easing" of monetary policy in China.
Barton Biggs, the hedge fund manager who increased bets on U.S. equities before the S&P 500 rallied this month, said he's still bullish.
'Best Houses'
"I'm biased toward the long side," he said during an interview on Bloomberg Television "In the Loop" with Betty Liu today. "U.S. big-capitalization, U.S. stocks and Asian stocks are the best houses in a fairly tough, bad neighborhood." Biggs said equities may surge or drop 20 percent because of concern about budget negotiations and Europe.
The yield on the 30-year Treasury bond fell five basis points to 3.06 percent, with 10-year yields slipping four basis points to 2.02 percent.
The S&P GSCI Index of commodities slumped 1.3 percent, as 19 of 24 commodities retreated. Silver for March delivery dropped 3.9 percent to $31.002 an ounce. Copper declined 2.6 percent and oil lost 1.7 percent to $97.77 a barrel in New York. Natural gas fell to the lowest in more than two years, losing 1.9 percent to $3.254 per million British thermal units, on forecasts for warmer weather and stockpiles near record highs.
Almost 16 shares fell for every one that advanced in the Stoxx 600, extending last week's 0.1 percent drop. HSBC Holdings Plc slipped 3.2 percent and Banco Santander SA lost 4.2 percent to pace a drop among 49 of 50 banks in the index. Commerzbank AG, Germany's second-largest bank, tumbled 7.8 percent on concern it will need state aid. After European markets closed, Germany's Finance Ministry denied a Reuters report that it's in talks to offer state assistance to Commerzabank, saying that communication between the government and the bank doesn't go beyond "exchange of information."
European Bonds
The two-year Italian note yield decreased 11 basis points to 5.85 percent after surging as much as 53 points earlier. The government sold 365-day bills at an average yield of 5.952 percent, compared with 6.087 percent at the previous auction.
The extra yield investors demand to hold 10-year French bonds instead of benchmark German bunds climbed 14 basis points to 126 basis points. France sold 4 billion euros ($5.3 billion) 13-week bills at an average yield of 0.222 percent. France also sold 1 billion euros of 308-day bills and 1.5 billion euros of 182-day bills.
The Markit iTraxx SovX Western Europe Index of credit-default swaps on 15 governments climbed for a fifth day, jumping 18.5 basis points to 382, the highest since closing at its all-time high of 386.5 on Nov. 25.
Dollar, Euro
The dollar appreciated against all 16 major peers monitored by Bloomberg, strengthening 0.3 percent versus the yen and 0.6 percent against the pound. The euro weakened against eight of 16 major peers, while strengthening at least 0.7 percent versus the Swedish krona, South African rand and Brazilian real.
Foreign-exchange strategists are reducing forecasts for the euro at the fastest pace this year as ECB President Mario Draghi's interest-rate cuts remove one of the currency's pillars of support. Since Nov. 3, when Draghi began to undo the rate increases implemented earlier this year by his predecessor, Jean-Claude Trichet, analysts have cut end-of-2012 estimates for the euro to $1.32 from $1.40, based on the median of 40 forecasts in a Bloomberg survey as of last week.
The shared currency has weakened versus every major peer except the Swiss franc since then, after gaining against 12 of the 16 this year prior to that.
'No Panacea'
Royal Bank of Scotland Plc Chief European Economist Jacques Cailloux said the agreements reached at the EU summit last week are unlikely to inspire the ECB to engage in large-scale bond purchases to support struggling nations.
"Perhaps more importantly, we reiterate our view that even if the ECB was to intervene more aggressively, this would be no panacea," he said.
The ECB settled settled 635 million euros ($841 million) of bond purchases last week, down from 3.7 billion euros the previous week.
The MSCI Emerging Markets Index slipped 1.1 percent, erasing earlier gains of as much as 0.9 percent. India's Sensex Index fell 2.1 percent after industrial production fell for the first time since June 2009. The Shanghai Composite Index lost 1 percent after data showed overseas shipments rose by the least in two years. Benchmark gauges in Brazil, Argentina, Turkey and Russia lost more than 1.5 percent.

Using Hand Sanitizers for Flu Prevention in the Workplace
Hand washing has long been touted as one of the best ways to stop the spread of the influenza virus, and it is. However, a restroom or other hand-washing station is not always readily available. By providing your employees with easy access to hand sanitizers, you can keep the flu from significantly affecting your company and keep your business on track.
How Hand Sanitizer Can Prevent the Flu
Using hand sanitizers is another step in the good daily hygiene habits and preventative measures your workers are already taking to keep from contracting influenza. These products work by eliminating most of the germs that exist on the hands. Every time you or one of your employees touch a surface thats infected with germs and then touch the face, eyes, nose or mouth, youre taking the chance of introducing those germs into your body. The alcohol found in some hand sanitizers quickly kills most germs, making it an efficient method to quickly disinfect until a more thorough hand washing can be done.
Choosing a Hand Sanitizer
Hand sanitizers come in a variety of formulas and forms. Some are scented, and others are not. There is the traditional gel-like option, or you can choose from alcohol-based hand sanitizing foams and wipes. You may also want to make a simple fragrance-free moisturizing lotion available to your employees, as alcohol-based hand sanitizers can dry out your hands.
Steps for Maximizing the Effectiveness of Hand Sanitizer
To get the most out of your hand sanitizer, its important to educate your employees on its proper technique and use:
An Effective Alternative to Hand Washing
By providing your workers with hand sanitizers as a quick and easy alternative to traditional hand washing, you can keep your employees healthy and minimize the effect of a flu outbreak in your business. Make sure to keep whatever hand sanitizer you choose out in the open, where it can be easily seen and serve as a visual reminder to employees throughout the day.
Using hand sanitizer in combination with preventive measures, such as avoiding those sick with the flu and good hygiene practices, can help keep you and your workers healthy through even the worst flu season.

LOCAL Q&A 9/13: Alison Hollingsworth
Published: Thursday, September 12, 2013 at 11:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, September 12, 2013 at 11:06 a.m.
Alison Hollingsworth, who has lived on and off in the Tuscaloosa area since she was a teenager, decided last year to bring fitness-based ballet classes to the adults in the area. When Hollingsworth returned to Tuscaloosa, she said she found that there was a need for adult ballet classes that was not being met within the community, which is why she opened Ballet Arts and Fitness this year, in the Tuscaloosa Galleria. Hollingsworth said that in her spare time she enjoys supporting other local arts organizations like the Tuscaloosa Community Dancers and Shelton State Community College productions, and walking her dog around scenic Tuscaloosa.
Q:Who are you? What do you do? Tell us about your job and how you became involved in it.
A:My name is Alison Hollingsworth. I am a ballet instructor and owner of Ballet Arts & Fitness. The studio's focus is to offer ballet, Pilates, yoga and other forms of dance to adults and teens. I opened the studio because I wanted to share my love of ballet. I wanted a place that adults could enjoy ballet or a fitness class at any level they desired in a calm studio setting. I also wanted to provide a separate teen program where students could enjoy and learn the art of ballet without competition.
Q:Where are you from? What brought you to or keeps you in Tuscaloosa?
A:My parents moved to Tuscaloosa from Texas when I was a teenager. After finishing high school and obtaining a business degree from the University of Alabama, I left Tuscaloosa to further my ballet training. After years of performing and teaching ballet in New York City and Seattle, I wanted to live closer to family, so I moved back to Tuscaloosa with the goal of opening my own studio.
Q:What do you tell people or friends who have never been here about living in Tuscaloosa?
A:With friends scattered all over the country, I try to convey the natural beauty of Tuscaloosa to them. We have a beautiful city surrounded by lakes, stately old trees, parks and trails. I also like to tell them about our growing visual and performing arts community. I don't have to tell them too much about Alabama football, as they seem to be fully aware of that!
Q:Where are the top places you take visitors and why?
A:I like to take visitors to the Riverwalk, historic Tuscaloosa, downtown Northport and out to Lake Tuscaloosa. I really love all of the old houses in the historic section of Tuscaloosa and enjoy walking among the beautiful old trees. Downtown Northport is charming, with great shopping and food. I enjoy the nightlife in downtown Tuscaloosa, and if we are lucky we can catch something going on at the Bama Theatre or the amphitheater. Of course, walks around campus are always a must.
Q:What are your favorite places to eat? What do you order or suggest ordering?
A:I would say my favorite place to eat is 5 (Restaurant). I enjoy the ambience there, whether we are sitting outside or inside, and I have yet to order anything I didn't love there. I also enjoy Heritage House for a great cup of coffee and a gluten-free muffin.
Q:What are some of the best hangout locations around town?
A:I love to meet up with friends at the Alcove International Tavern. It is laid-back and relaxing, which I am always up for.
Q:What are some of your favorite local activities?
A:I have been enjoying the Tuscaloosa Community Dancer's performances as well as the Shelton State productions. I am excited about the Dinah Washington Cultural Arts Center and look forward to future exhibits and shows that they host. I also really enjoy walking in one of our many beautiful parks or paths. My dog is always ready for a walk.
Q:What things do you think Tuscaloosa needs or needs more of and why?
A:I really like the new program our local Chamber of Commerce has launched regarding "buying local." However, to accomplish this we need more local shopping available to us. I would love to see some new stores move into our area. It would be so nice to have a good home store, shoe store, Whole Foods, etc. in town.
Q:How do you urge people to get more involved around town?
A:I have tried to help promote Tuscaloosa Community Dancers through my studio. I encourage people to go see these wonderfully talented dancers doing what they love. I also would love to promote any local production at my studio and welcome any posters or fliers. I think it is important to help support the arts through patronage. There is something inherently uplifting about seeing live performances. I also try to promote physical activity, whether it is at my studio or about town. I think it is crucial to our health and well-being to be as active as possible. I offer a veteran's discount at the studio, as well as other discounts, with the hopes of getting people in classes that might not otherwise be able to do so. I believe the more active a person is, the happier and healthier they will be.

Virtualization with IBM's System p servers
IBM has been in the virtualization business for decades. We'll show you around the award-winning virtualization environment for IBM System p series servers.
In all the recent talk about virtualization, the name IBM is rarely mentioned, even though IBM has used virtual machines for decades on its mainframes. The experience with mainframes allowed IBM to create one of the most sophisticated Linux virtualization environments on the market today – the IBM System p, based on Power5 and Power6 processors. In fact, IBM won the prize for the best virtualization solution at LinuxWorld, August 2006 in San Francisco. In this article, I will show you how to get up and running with the System p virtualization environment.
