This is one of the best multi purpose products that is super reasonably priced. I use it as a toner and the difference is amazing....I steam my face once a week and add a green tea bag to the water for extra benefits. I then take a little of that water that has the green tea in it and add some ACV. I put this in a jar and use it as face toner nightly, my skin is so supple and soft the next day plus green tea is a super anti oxidant for the skin. Refrigerate to help it last longer! This also helps lighten my scars and melasma. This balances the PH of your face ladies!!!!!
I also dilute it in water and drink daily, weight comes off twice as fast. AMAZING product that I recommend everyone at least try!!!

I have thick, virgin, thirsty tight curls and using this as a hair rinse is the best. I use it at the end of my shower on shampooed and conditioned hair or sometimes just conditioned hair. I use about 1 cup vinegar to 3 cups cold water, the colder the better. And I dump it all over my hair and then towel dry and let my hair air dry as normal. My curls are left soft, shiny and defined :)

I am not certain if I am writing this review in the right place, but the results were so wonderful I had to leave a comment.
Product: dollar general white vinegar
I have colored my hair a darker reddish brown since last August. I intend to switch to different color, do I have not colored my hair in about 3 months. My hair looked horrible- faded and drab. I knew I had lots of product build up, so on a impulsive whim I jump into the shower with the JUG of white vinegar from my laundry room. I was in no mood to mess with measuring or mixing with water.
I just dumped the jug over my head! Then I worked it threw the ends. I repeated about 3 times, then I shampooed 2X, and finished with a large handful of Dove conditioner
My hair was AmAZINg!!! Styled so easily. And the shine was insane! Truly amazing!
I will try to do this every 3 months...

This review is just for ACV in general (how different can the different brands really be?) used as a toner with distilled water. Long story short, I LOVE it. I was breaking out for about a month, due to the biotin vitamins I was taking and the change in the weather. I'm not used to acne at all, and researched tons of ways to get rid of it, and it seemed like ACV was a common household item used for DIY acne cures. I figured I had nothing to lose, forgot the exact recipe, and used straight ACV on my face, twice. My eyes watered and it burned, but it worked like a charm. Cleared up my existing acne within a day including pimples i'd been trying for weeks to get rid of. I then Reread the recipe and made a little jar of half distilled water and half AVC (1/2 cup of each) and use it every night. It's my favorite toner ever. Yes, it smells horrible, but it leaves your skin feeling clean and soft. Something about the vinegar regulates the pH balance of your skin. My acne is now 100% gone within two weeks of using this regularly, and my skin is softer, and the texture and color has really evened out.

I used to not be able to stand the taste of this but still wanted to find a way to drink it along with the health benefits.. then i found a great recipe on a forum that i want to share with everyone because i've found it so easy to drink now !
You will need:
A big glass of water
1 - 2 lids apple cider vinegar
A few pinches of cinnamon to taste
Sweetener (optional)
Blend for 5 seconds.. And there you go ! Makes it much easier to consume and I find I feel great after drinking. On weekends i drink multiple glasses and on week days i just drink it morning and night. HIGHLY reccomend!!!!!

This is great to drink a little of every day to keep your body's PH in check. I have heard of people using it in their hair but be careful not to do it all of the time or it could damage your hair.

While electricity provider Eskom has encouraged people to switch off their electric geysers overnight in order to save electricity, plumbers warn that leaving them off could damage the hot water pipes and even cause the geyser to burst.
Kwikhot's general manager of the service department, Wietz van Lelyveld, warns that the pipes inside the geyser expand when they are filled with hot water but after five hours or longer without electricity, cold water enters the pipe and the metal contracts.
This, he says, can lead to welding damage over time and may result in a geyser bursting.
Ryan Moore, managing director of Roto Rooter, says that while a geyser can be switched off during the peak demand period, it should be switched on before 10h00 to prevent damage to the geyser.
He says that Eskom used to insist that geysers were fitted with ripple relays so that these could be remotely controlled during peak demand but the utility had phased these out about ten years ago.
Mooreconfirmed that the company installs more replacement geysers over the winter period when customers are told to save energy by turning off their geysers without realising that they can be causing other damage.
Van Lelyveld and Moore both say that the best way of saving money on electricity is to install a solar water heater and, while the initial investment is relatively high, the savings are significant and the maintenance costs are minimal.
Readers' Comments Have a comment about this article? Email us now.
The article has left a big question mark in my mind.
Firstly the ripple relays have not been phased out 10 years ago as they are still in operation in some areas in Johannesburg.
Secondly, I am switching my geyser off for the last about 8 years and there is no problem with my geyser.
With regards to the pipes inside the geyser, maybe Kwikot can be more specific on what type of geyser they are talking about. If welding is of such a poor standard that a change in temperature of about 35 degrees (from ±15 to 50 degrees) with the maximum at about 50 - 55 degrees, (mine is at ± 45 degrees), then I seriously question the quality of Kwikot's geysers.
I have heard from one plumber that the average lifespan of today's geysers are about three years - that is his experience with his regular clients. He also indicated that some of the long warranties which one had on some geysers, have all fallen away. This is appalling. Maybe someone need to do some tests on our modern day geysers and expose the poor quality we are getting. - W. Ries
Cold water also enters the geyser everyday when you use it to shower or bath, how is that different from the cold water entering the geyser when you switch it of?
I will appreciate any explanation on the difference. - Anon
It happened to me 2 weeks ago. - S. Brierley
What is the deference between running a full bath (cooling the geyser down all the way) and leaving the geyser off during the night?
If you have a copper geyser (like I have) this does not even play a roll. I deal with solar systems every day, and if they are not properly installed you are worse of as if you did not have one at all.
Kwikhot should rather educate the public about replacing the anode in the geysers. (an anode prevents the geyser from being "eaten" from the inside by the water.
Replacing the anode after about 18 months will allow your geyser to last even up to 15 years and not just 3 years. - David Hartzenberg
If the geyser cools down in 5 hours, you have a crap geyser.
Cold water always enter the pipes that is why you fit a geyser.
This means that you should not bath as the volume of water leaving your geyser would be replaced with cold water and this will cause your geyser to burst.
The problem comes that over the years the geyser companies has changed from copper to iron tanks. Copper is softer, more flexible and less susceptible to corrosion. The iron tanks has anode that needs to be replaced regularly to reduce corrosion. This is not done and the tank seams are first to corrode due to the heat when welding. To proof my point, why does hot water copper pipes from the geyser to the tap not burst all the time. My pipes run outside the house, cools down and heats up every time you use hot water. Same pipes for over 36 years.
O and by the way Solar geysers only heats the water when the sun shines, thus the geyser is switched off for more than 10 hours in the day. The solar geysers element is set to work at night when the sun does not shine. So why would this not happen to solar geysers. Yes it is the same geyser with just extra pipes, unless you get the fibreglass tank version. - C. Viljoen
I also used to switch of my geyser then I my brother advised me to buy a time switch it switch itself on 3:00 morning then off again by 6:00. Am I also in danger of geyser burst? How could Eskom advice us for something which will cost us more than the electricity itself. - Mamothe
I think the article is poorly researched and lacks sufficient information to make an informed choice.
There are a few proven dangers to switching off the geyser, but they deal with extremely cold climates where water freezes in pipes and other similar related issues.
Expansion & contraction takes place during normal usage as the hot water leaves the geyser and is replaced with cold water, in winter, this temperature difference is greater than in summer and can obviously add to metal fatigue- especially on steel geyser tanks where the effects are greater than with copper geyser tanks.
There is always more wear & tear on a geyser and its components in colder weather where the cold water is at a lower temperature than during other times of the year. The element and thermostat activate more frequently and have to work longer to heat the water & to keep it hot. The expansion and contraction on the components is also greater due to the difference between the lower base temperature and the hot water temperature. This does not necessarily mean that geysers burst more in winter or if switched off for 12-18hrs a day, as normal usage will cause expansion/contraction anyway.
Regarding the claim that maintenance costs on a solar geyser is minimal; solar geysers have all the same components of a normal pressurised geyser installation. Pressure valves, vacuum breakers, tp safety valves are on both types of systems and therefore have the same maintenance costs and lifespan. The backup element and thermostat on a solar installation obviously has to heat less and therefore will have less maintenance over time.
Better advice for your readers is to advise them to insulate the water pipes and to install an electrical time switch on the DB Board. While an installation of a solar geyser will save the most electricity, it is also the largest expense. It is disingenuous to tell readers that "maintenance costs are minimal" on a solar geyser installation.
Please research your articles more thoroughly in future. - Harold Josman
I find it very disconcerting that information like this is passed off as factual, when even the smallest amount of logical thought applied to the situation will rubbish the assertion that switching off your geyser is bad for the geyser.
Geyser bursts occur when:
1. The temperature or pressure in the geyser exceeds the design specifications of the geyser by a large margin ( unlikely as the TP valve opens if the pressure exceeds the rated pressure of the geyser and the temperature exceeds 94 deg C). This would normally happen if the thermostat failed and the geyser would heat up to boiling point.
2. The geyser pressure vessel is compromised due to a lack of maintenance. Mild steel geysers come fitted with a sacrificial anode that has to be replaced regularly so as to inhibit corrosion, when this is not done, the hot water will accelerate the rate of corrosion especially in the areas around the element and the hot water outlet. In short it has a hole rusted through it.
3. A vacuum is formed in the geyser and the vacuum breakers fail. (this is a vacuum collapse and not a burst)
The rate at which the whole thing expands and contracts is a great deal slower than would be required to cause metal fatigue as heating typically takes an hour or more, thereby giving the metal sufficient time to expand. Pipes bursting would be either wear and tear or badly fitted pipes as especially copper pipes are extremely responsive to temperature changes and they routinely are subjected to massive temperature fluctuations. The fact that geysers often fail in winter is because the whole system takes more abuse during winter and to my mind is a natural consequence of this.
The major causes for geyser failures are too high temperatures, corrosion due to lack of maintenance and the use of cheap materials to make geysers as opposed to using more corrosion resistant materials like stainless steel, copper and glass fibre options and pray tell how will having a solar geyser change the situation.
All in all badly researched and deeply flawed arguments that presents anecdotal evidence as facts. - Gerwyn Wilsnagh

The New Climax Lounge celebrates forty years on September 9
The Climax Lounge (2217 Welton Street), which got its start four decades ago as an after-hours joint, has a colorful past. In the '90s, as the Raven, it hosted punk-rock acts; the Fray and M. Ward have played there. But over the past few years, the Climax hasn't seen a lot of action.
Now that's about to change. Timothy Reaves says his 85-year-old great-uncle, Albert Bryant, had maintained the building almost single-handedly over the past forty years, but lately hadn't had enough energy to keep the place running full steam. So Bryant enlisted Reaves, a Denver native who'd been living in the Bay Area, to come back and pump some youthful energy into the venue, which is now called the New Climax Lounge.
"It's really good for us because the people know it as the Climax Lounge," Reaves says, "but to say the 'New' really kind of tells people there's something that has changed. It is something that's new. It's not the old thing, even though the old mystique and old decor is still here. There's some new management and new structure, and some new ways of doing business."
During the three months Reaves has been back in town, he's been getting the word out that the club is back in business, booking bands on the weekends and just trying to get people through the door. "People drive by this place all the time," he says, "and when they finally come in, they go, 'Oh, my God, I had no idea how nice it is in here.' It's like you won't know until you come. Looks can be deceiving from the outside, but once you get inside, it's the most friendly and warm place."
Reaves has plans for some upgrades, including expanding the sound system to accommodate national and internationally known acts of all genres. "Not just R&B and jazz," he says. "We're known for punk rock to rock and roll, so we really want to stay with that — stay with what works."
On Friday and Saturday, September 9 and 10, the New Climax will celebrate forty years of business with an R&B vocalist, local bands and a spoken-word artist. Happy birthday, and many more.
Club scout: Jon Forget, the general manager of the British Bulldog, and Mark Berzins, owner of the Little Pub Company, which comprises nineteen joints in and around Denver, including the Bulldog, just opened Three Lions in the former Bank Bar & Grill at 2239 East Colfax Avenue. Three Lions is billing itself as a world football pub, and features zones where multiple games are shown on several TVs; an English-style "public bar" games area; and full lounge dining areas.
The Bulldog, too, has gotten a facelift — but the historic booths created when it was the Punch Bowl remain. We'll drink to that!

I think he sees the network as an underdeveloped asset that is poised to be souped up and made more relevant and competitive.
Since it's Lyad's private boat, I imagine it's been souped up with everything they could throw in.
"liquid food," 1650s, from French soupe "soup, broth" (13c.), from Late Latin suppa "bread soaked in broth," from a Germanic source (cf. Middle Dutch sop "sop, broth"), from Proto-Germanic *sup-, from PIE *sub-, from root *seue- (2) "to take liquid" (see sup (v.2)).
Primordial soup is from a concept first expressed 1929 by J.B.S. Haldane. Soup to nuts "everything" is from 1910. Soup-kitchen, "public establishment supported by voluntary contributions, for preparing and serving soup to the poor at no cost" is attested from 1839. In Ireland, souper meant "Protestant clergyman seeking to make proselytes by dispensing soup in charity" (1854).
"increase the horsepower of an engine," 1921, probably from soup (n.) in slang sense of "narcotic injected into horses to make them run faster" (1911), influenced by supercharge (v.).

When we put beta exams in market, it is very important that we get a specified minimum number of people taking these exams to ensure adequate psychometric data for analysis which helps to identify troublesome questions and make a better final version of the exam.
Each day, I receive registration statistics that tell me how many people have registered for a specific exam, how many exams have been delivered, are waiting to be delivered or how many people were "no shows".
I'm writing this post to bring up some important points regarding certification beta exams.
1) If you receive an invitation, please only register for the exam if you honestly believe you are qualified to take the exam. We have been asked to open these to the general public and against my better judgement, we did so. Unqualified candidates only mess up the statistics and take seats away from qualified candidates.
2) If you register for an exam, please take it. Again, you are taking a seat away from someone else who could benefit from the exam and provide valid statistics for us.
3) If you take the beta exam, please ensure you leave quality feedback on the exam questions. To say that a question sucks and leave it at that is completely useless to both you and us. We cannot do anything with such a comment, other than to laugh at it. Seriously.
The exam beta process is designed to ensure a quality exam is released in the end, similar to ensuring quality in a software product by beta testing it. It is a very important part of the process and one that we take very seriously.
If the trend that is current on the SQL Server exams continues, I will be forced to revert back to not opening the exams to the public and instead restrict them to those who are very serious about certifications and the quality of the exam and experience.
Exam 70-451 has 346 total registrations to date with 29 no shows, 25 cancellations and 200 remaining registrations. This exam beta ends on the 30 of this month. That means 200 people have 5 days left to take this exam. I can understand scheduling for the end of a beta period to ensure adequate preparation time, but never the less, I highly doubt I will see 200 more deliveries before the end of the month.
PingBack from http://blog.a-foton.ru/2008/09/dont-forget-to-take-your-exams/
I am one of these 200 remaining "beta testers" of 71-451 and my exam is scheduled for tomorrow. So if nothing unexpected happens, you should see no more than 199 remaining registrations :)
Best regards
Excellent news Georgi,
Thanks for the post and best of luck!
Hi Gerry, I think you are very upset, I understand you point of view and it is clear in your language, but I think threatening candidates that you would restrict the beta exams is not the solution. Instead there other solutions that may work.
First, I don't think that the beta exams registration are that much, so some unqualified candidates can take seats away from qualified candidates, and if so you can use a priority system that gives a higher priority to the certified professionals in the beta exam field, and a lower one to other certified professionals and lower one to the public.
Another solution is not to make the exams totally free, but keep the exam fees near $10 or so to decrease the number of fake registrations, and I don't think that this amount of money can annoy serious candidates.
I hope that would help.
Hi Sameh,
I think you misunderstand my post. I am not upset nor am I threatening candidates. I'm merely stating facts and indicating that if candidates want beta exams to remain open to them, they need to honor their registrations.
What I am implying is that I have heard from some upset candidates who wanted to take the exam but couldn't because the maximum amount of people were registered.
Also, the current systems in place do not allow is to prioritize beta registration. Nor can we charge for beta exams, even at a reduced rate of $10, it would not change the situation at all.
So, hopefully this clears up my intent and provides a little more insight into the process.
I am taking mine tomorrow as well so make it 198.
Music to my ears Jonathan.
I suspected most were holding out until the last minute to get max prep time.
It's what I typically did when I took beta exams.
Now I'm so busy they come and go before I get a chance to take them.
Hello Gerry,
interesting post. I thought there would be more than 346 people taking the beta and I fully understand that you don't like such a high rate of no-shows. The 71-451 is still listed at the Prometric website, so at least it seems that this time all interested could register.
I got my first IT certification with a beta exam for Sun (SCJP 5.0) some years ago. They made it public from the beginning, but charged a modest fee (I think it was 30$). But they also offered everyone who passed the exam a free voucher for another exam, so there was another incentive to do it right. Maybe doing something similar would help?
I'll take my luck on Monday.
Hi Martin,
I thought there would be lots more too. I'm not sure why the numbers are so low. And yes, there is still room for registrations but those haven't increased in the past week so I'm not holding my breath. :-)
Sun's idea sounds like a good deal but based on past responses, most people said they would not pay for a beta exam so we're basing our decision on that really. it's worth another look though but I would think a price higher than $30 is still needed to deter the unqualified candidates. Just my opinion mind you, but I truly believe it.
best of luck on Monday, I hope you do well.
Hi Gerry;
I hope the 200 people who said they would take the exam manage to do so. I think the reason there are not a lot of people taking the beta is because of the other offers from Microsoft. For example I am sure if you had a look at the number of people going for the exams that are going to be retired in March 2009 or the upgrade exams, I am sure the number would be fairly up. Myself for one have been concentrating on upgrading my certifications to .net 2.0 and doing some of the certifications that are due to expire in which I have always been interested in but never attempted them because of the price.
One idea to be able to get more qualified candidates to do the exam would be to have a survey or assessment that would allow you guys to see if the person is qualified to do the beta and also it would deter candidates that are not serious about the exams.
Good luck for monday.
I didn't register for 70-451, mostly because i don't know enough about the topic.
I'm pretty new to the certification field, passed my MCSE exams in the beginning of 2007. Thanks to the more or less open nature of beta exams, i was able to get all my WS2008 certifications (649,647,646,652) without paying a dime - that was great.
I never received a personal invitation email, except for the 652 beta - which means without public betas i wouldn't have been able to take the other exams.
Now, i understand your point, but paying for a beta exam isn't something i would do. The current beta situation is acceptable if it is free - double the questions, waiting 4-5 months for the results. That's okay for something free. But as soon as i pay for something, i expect more.
Hi Gerry,
I would be rather disappointed if the beta exams were closed down again. This year I've passed two of them (504 and 562) and I have a third one (433) planned on 10-10.
However, I could only register for these because I found a promotional code somewhere or because the exam was public. I do not receive beta exam invitations, so taking one will become rather difficult if they're no longer public.
Yesterday, September 25th, I was one of the 200 "bad" people. Today, I'm not ... :-)
And I think I'm also one for the 71-433. But I always go to my testing, or, if not possible I cancel them (1 time for the new Active Directory test with the new software).
I understand that you are upset with this situation. But sometimes the time range for the exam is not compatible with holydays or daily workload. And (in France) I cannot pass the exam every day. Testing sessions are open only 3 or 4 days/week. I could be another reason to delay the exam.
I'm certified since WinNT4.0 and SQL 7.0. Maybe you should target people directly by email regarding their transcripts to be "beta-tester" for a new exam. It will prevent people who don't care about a technology to take a seat
It will be a good idea to make another post at the end of testing period and give us the final statistics...
Here is another ideia.
A while ago, I took 70-282 exam. I used a voucher from Microsoft. If I passed, then the exam would be free if I flunk, I had to pay for the exam. Fortunelly I got my money back :). Stiil this can be a way for Betas, not having to pay if you just show up. This way, only someone that had some good reasens would not show up.
The ideia of one voucher for the ones o passed is music for my ears, this would be a very nice ideia ;).
If you close those public invitatios is very bad news for me. I took 8 Beta exams already, 7 passed 1 tested, and 1 more scheduled. Never got one personal invitation, this was only checking blogs. So, I have doubts about the priority scheme.
Thanks everyone for your comments and suggestions. I will take them all into consideration and discussions with the internal team.
NOTE: We will NOT be closing the betas to the public anytime soon so you don't have to worry about that in the near future.

Damned If We Do: How Women And Minorities Get Penalized For Promoting Diversity
According to a new study, the best people to promote diversity in hiring are . . . white men?
As Madeleine Albright famously intoned, "There is a special place in hell for women who don't help other women."
Many women and minorities who have worked hard to get in a position to make hiring and management decisions might feel the responsibility to pay it forward by promoting the efforts of others like them.
But a new and discouraging study from the University of Colorado found that women and non-white executives who push for other minority candidates to be hired and promoted suffer when it comes to their own performance reviews.
According to the study of 362 executives, from several industries, both groups end up being rated less highly by their bosses, and the assumptions about them echoed some of the most often heard stereotypes. According to a Wall Street Journal article about the study, "a woman who shepherds women up the ranks is perceived as less warm, while a non-white who promotes diversity is perceived as less competent."
While it's frustrating to hear such clichéd perceptions trotted out, there may be a sliver of legitimate concern in these bias: The study's author speculates that the negative stereotyping is a result of perceived self-interest. This might explain in part why when white men promoted diversity in hiring and advancement they got a bump in their performance reviews.
Self-replicating in hiring, the tendency to hire and promote people who remind us of ourselves, has long been a pervasive issue in many companies, which is part of the reason why executive leadership looks so homogenous.
Still, statements in the study's findings like, "People are perceived as selfish when they advocate for someone who looks like them, unless they're a white man," are infuriating for those struggling to change the ratio of women and minorities in leadership.
In essence, the only way women and minorities can be viewed as "strong" or "competent" is if they hire white men, while white men who hire others like them will be seen as just doing their jobs and praised if they promote diversity.
The only positive takeaway from the study is the need for white men to become a bigger part of diversity efforts. There is a lot of value in groups of like-minded women and minorities mentoring each other in navigating the career landscape, but no effort for increased diversity can exist without the help of those who still hold most of the positions of power.

The notion that the "no effort for increased diversity can exist" without white men is absurd. True diversity is comprised of many factors. Ethnicity is just one of those factors. A person's educational, cultural, professional background greatly contribute to diversity as well.
It is illogical to assume that if a white male is in a leadership position, he is qualified to be in that role. If self-replicating does exist, which it does, it is safe to conclude that many of these white men were hired simply because of what they are: white and male, not because of there qualifications.

iHerb Customer Reviews
I didn't like this brush. I used it for face powder and I felt like it dug into my pressed powders and didn't pick up product. I haven't tried it for foundation because I use a beauty blender regardless hehe. If you really like stippling brushes then try it out. I found it a little spoken and hurt my face.
I love this brush as it can be used as a stippling brush to apply foundation, powder, and its fantastic as a bronzer brush! Looking at its huge size i was bit skeptical how it eould fare as a bronzer brush but I was surprised to see how it works as an all over bronzer brush! It keaves a very natural looking finish and picks up just about enough product. I feel this brush also helps a lil product go a long way! A very nice multi-tasking brush to throw into ur handbag..Love it :)

Mondeo Grapite Tdci 2.0 Lift Pump And Fuel Cutoff Switch,where Are They?
jj999 posted a topic in Ford Mondeo ClubHello this is my first post .Here's a brief introduction, I bought a 2003 mondeo graphite TDci, 2 months ago and have had lots of problems with warning lights, engine cutting out, hard to start, glow plug problems to mention a few. The main problem i have at the moment is with it not starting on a morning, and flashing glow plug light when driving and then cutting out. I recently had a mobile mechanic with a diagnostic machine round one morning, he started the car straight away using easy start in the airfilter, he also told me that the fuel pressure was low at the time he started it. I know there are a lot of problems in this area. so i thought i would start by checking the lift pump and the fuel cutoff switch, but i can't find them, going from a hayes manual the pump is next to the fuel tank and the cutoff switch is in the cab on the passenger side, i have followed the pipes from front to back and found niether, can anyone tell me where else they might be?

A Global Ambition; Teesside University Plays an Innovative and Strategic Role Supporting the Offshore Engineering Industries Locally, Nationally and Globally. It Supports Professional Development and Direct Workforce Training, and Provides Research, Consultancy Expertise with Knowledge Transfer Projects to Deliver a Real Competitive Advantage to Organisations in This Industry and along the Supply Chain
TEESSIDE University is a modern, dynamic, energetic and innovative university, adjacent to the second largest petrochemical complex in Europe and on the doorstep of the UK's North Sea petroleum industry.
Teesside University Open Learning (Engineering) is the world's leading provider of high quality flexible education to the engineering industry.
For 25 years the University has been creating high quality, stand alone, open learning materials at engineering technician level. It is a realistic way to deliver necessary training and education to staff who are unable to attend conventional classroom-based courses. So, if you work on an oil rig in the Caribbean or in pipeline construction in a desert, your professional development need not be interrupted - you can study at your own pace, effectively anywhere.
TUOL(E) leading high engineering " education If you want to underpin and enhance your work experience or vocational qualifications with a solid engineering education, Teesside University Open Learning (Engineering), TUOL(E), offers a portfolio of self-contained open access courses for the oil and gas and post-processing petroleum sectors; from elementary City & Guilds National Certificate courses in process technology to Higher National Certificates and Diplomas in petroleum engineering.
The resulting qualifications are recognised for entry into, and progression within, the industry in any part of the world. The University works very closely with awarding bodies, City & Guilds and Edexcel to innovate and develop new markets in the UK and overseas.
TUOL(E)'s flexible open learning materials are designed to offer mature entrants, and those unable to take time off work, the opportunity to study at their own pace, flexibly, wherever they live and work. This is particularly useful for armed services personnel who can study prior to leaving their current positions or use resettlement and ELC funding to enrol on completion of service, preparatory to their move into the industry.
The petroleum sector supports a wide range of businesses which requires a workforce with a diverse skillset. The University offers courses in chemical, electrical and electronic, instrumentation and control, mechanical, process engineering, and metals and materials HNC and HND courses.
TUOL(E) courses were developed for the UK engineering supply chain in the North-east but have found widespread acceptance all round the world, with some 30,000 students (including many current and service-completed military personnel), from five continents completing courses since 1985.
is the world's provider of Chris Hoggarth, director of TUOL(E) said: "Open learning isn't an isolated activity. It is different from the traditional university experience, but there are still lots of opportunities to communicate with your peers and to gain a different and fulfilling experience. Teesside University Open Learning (Engineering) will continue to be a leading provider for the industry and creates new communities and new learning spaces for engineers and engineering students. "Any UK/EU students registering on a Teesside University Open Learning (Engineering) course on or before July 31, 2012 will remain eligible for grant funding." TUOL(E) students are supported by telephone or email from Teesside University's learning centre office by dedicated subject tutors with a collective expertise and wealth of experience in delivering and assessing open learning engineering courses. …

MLB: Cardinals sign free-agent shortstop Jhonny Peralta
Two-time all-star, suspended 50 games in Biogenesis drug scandal, agrees to four-year, $50 million deal.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Free-agent shortstop Jhonny Peralta and the St. Louis Cardinals have agreed on a four-year contract, giving the all-star a fresh start after his Biogenesis drug suspension last summer.
The Cardinals filled a need by getting a top-hitting shortstop a month after losing the World Series in six games to Boston. Pete Kozma and Daniel Descalso, while generally good fielders, are light hitters.
The deal was expected to be worth more than $50 million.
"We are pleased to announce that Jhonny has agreed to terms and I know he is equally excited to be joining the Cardinals," general manager John Mozeliak said in a statement. "Jhonny is among the game's top offensive shortstops, he's a steady defender and he has experience playing for a contender. He gives us proven veteran experience and brings balance and versatility to our everyday lineup. "
But the move drew a different reaction from a couple of other big leaguers.
"It pays to cheat... Thanks, owners, for encouraging PED use," Arizona pitcher Brad Ziegler tweeted.
"Apparently getting suspended for PED's means you get a raise. What's stopping anyone from doing it? (hashtag)weneedtomakeachange," free-agent pitcher David Aardsma tweeted.
The 31-year-old Peralta was suspended 50 games last season as a result of Major League Baseball's investigation in the Biogenesis case involving performance-enhancing drugs. He returned to the Detroit Tigers in late September and played in the post-season, both in left field and at shortstop.
Shortly before Peralta was penalized, the Tigers acquired young shortstop Jose Iglesias from Boston in a three-team trade.
Peralta hit .303 with 11 home runs and 55 RBIs in 107 games during the regular season, then batted .333 with one homer, four doubles and six RBIs in 10 playoff games.
The two-time all-star is a career .268 hitter with 156 homers and 698 RBIs in 11 seasons with Cleveland and Detroit.
The NL champion Cardinals have been busy since the season ended. A few days ago, they sent third baseman David Freese, a hometown product and the 2011 World Series MVP, to the Los Angeles Angels for outfielder Peter Bourjos in a four-player trade.
The Cardinals cut about $45 million off last season's payroll, and wanted to plug a hole at shortstop. St. Louis lost all-star Rafael Furcal in spring training for the whole year because of elbow surgery.
Detroit did not extend a qualifying offer to Peralta, meaning there would be no compensation draft pick involved in his move from the AL Central champions to the NL Central winners.
Earlier this off-season, the Tigers traded first baseman Prince Fielder to Texas for second baseman Ian Kinsler in a swap of all-stars with rich contracts.

in response to SpeedofLight HelpfulYou'd need to use a Bookmarklet such as this one, and save it (or move it) to your bookmarks bar. Then you can just click it once to maximize the window to the size of the screen.
Just create a new bookmark from any page, then change it's name to something like "Full" or "Full Size", and in the URL portion, enter this JavaScript code:
Once you've done that, it should work fine, though you may need to restart Safari before it recognizes the fact that it's there.
SpeedofLight Jul 7, 2009 9:04 PM
in response to sitspotsitThanks! But it still would not occupy the last few rows of pixels
I even tried various offsets like moveTo(0, -5) and height to screen.availHeight + 5 but the window would not budge.
Do you face the same problem too?
It's disappointing that the worlds *most advanced* operating system cannot re-size windows properly; something other GUI OS users have been doing for almost 2 decades.
sitspotsit Jul 7, 2009 9:17 PM
in response to SpeedofLight HelpfulI don't have that problem except with iTunes, and since my Dock is on the right-hand side of the screen, there are a few rows of pixels (2 or 3) it will not expand the window into.
Mac OS X is the most advanced OS, but it could very well be that it has determined the available screen width/height to be something other than what you think it should be. It could be the true dimensions of the screen based on the size and viewable area, even if you see an image on those few rows of pixels. Any other OS would not necessarily be calculating the true dimensions of the screen, so assuming that Mac OS X is automatically at fault is presumptuous at best.

in response to SpeedofLight SolvedIf you are game for a 3rd party approach to full screen, install Glims. Once installed, you'll find Glims' preferences as a separate panel in Safari Preferences. There, you can activate Full Screen.
When you are ready to use Full Screen, simply go to the Safari Menu and select it.
SpeedofLight Jul 9, 2009 12:30 AM
in response to Hawaiian_StarmanThanks sitspotsit and Hawaiian_Starman; guess I'll have to live with it.
Glims was a very good option too.

|Section 1: Accelerated Positive Contribution
|Lecture 1
Getting the Most from this Course
Hello and welcome to the Nailing the First 90 Days course on Udemy. I am delighted that you have decided to take this course and do the work to maximise your success as you make the transition to your new role.

|Lecture 2
What is the objective of this course?
It is not focussed on transferring knowledge.
It is focussed on giving you tools to accelerate your speed to positive contribution. I am not going to share theories, I am going to focus on simple practical worksheets that give structure to your efforts.
|Lecture 3
The PIE model is
It is not enough to be busy.
It is not enough to be productive.
You must be productive, have impact and be seen to be the cause of the change. You need PIE.
|Lecture 4
This course is about leadership transition, but in reality this covers most of the challenges and capabilities of leadership.

|Lecture 6
|There is a great danger in the early days of taking on a new role that you end up saying "Yes" to many requests on your time. Your days become filled with other people's meetings, other people's projects and other people's priorities.
You need to keep a focus on the Top 5 priorities for your first 90 days, and above all on the Top 1 of 5. This will be your un-missable goal.
|Section 2: Understand the Current Situation

|There are various situations you may find when you arrive.

|Lecture 9
Conducting SWOT Analysis Workshops
|Section 3: Achieve Early Wins
|Lecture 10
|40% of employee time is spent on "hassles". Stuff that is waste. A leader in transition has a small, unique window of opportunity to cut this hassle.
If you don't cut it very early, it becomes increasingly harder to remove.
|Lecture 11
|Nothing marks a change of leadership more than changes to the team's physical space.
|Lecture 12
|Section 4: Build Your Team
|Lecture 13
|Individual accountability is vital to allow your team to produce impact. If you do not build a culture of accountability early, you will be swamped by a constant flow of problems from the individuals you lead and manage.
There is one important question to keep giving back to people that come to you with problems, challenges, obstacles and queries.
|Lecture 14
|The 6 decisions for team members:
|Lecture 15
|Each individual will need a different style of interaction in order to get the best from them.
Motivation and Experience are the critical factors that you must assess per individual and per task in order to decide on the optimal Leadership Style.
In the case of zero motivation and zero experience, do not give this activity to the person. There is no management or leadership style that can get good work done in this situation. It is best to give the activity to someone else. If this is a critical activity, then you may need to consider replacing the individual. There is no magic that you can do.
In the case that there is some level of motivation or some level of experience, then you can give the activity to this individual and decide upon the optimal interaction style.
Broadly speaking, there are 4 styles of activity leadership:
|Lecture 16
Behaviour Change 101
|Lecture 17
|There are 4 stages of team interaction:
This lecture looks at the characteristics of each stage, and then the tools you can use as leader to move up the stages towards the ideal Performing stage.

|Section 6: Expedite Everything and Everyone
|Section 7: Personal Balance
|Section 8: Transition from 90 days to 900 days
|Lecture 19
|Personal Disciplines are vital. When you have a manager, someone else is in charge of your discipline. Once you are the leader, you are in charge of your own discipline for getting the right work done.
|Section 9: Bonus Section: Improving Your Communication Skills
|Lecture 20
|The following lectures are bonus material from another course that I teach: Leadership Communications: How to Move People to Action.
|Lecture 21
4 Steps to Become a Great Speaker
Jim Rohn says that there are four simple steps to becoming a great speaker:
How do we get something good to say? Live a full live. Meet lots of people. Fail. Succeed. Remember what it felt like and be able to share the emotion as well as the facts of what happened. Write a journal. Keep track of your stories.
How do we say it well? Prepare. Start strong. Breathe. Look up. Pause. Practice (lots).
How can you read the audience? Look at them. Listen to them. Feel the emotion of the room, of your listener – by feeling your own emotion.
Intensity – how do we get the right emotion? Tell personal stories. Share something. Only stories allow us to share emotion with others.
|Lecture 22
The basic principles of persuasion were developed over hundreds of years in Ancient Greece and Rome by philosophers such as Socrates, Aristotle, Cicero and Quintilian. At the very heart of this development was Aristotle's triad of logos, ethos and pathos. Aristotle's innovation was to include "ethos", or credibility, into the accepted approach to persuasion.
Over to you
|Lecture 23
As a child I remember reading Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll. One scene has Alice entering Wonderland via a hole in a tree trunk. On arrival in Wonderland there are several paths open to her. She sees a rabbit. She turns to the rabbit and says "Which path should I take?" The rabbit looks at her and asks "Where are you going?" She pauses and then says "I don't know". The rabbit smiles and says, "Well then any path is good".
In persuasive communication, if you don't know where you are going, then no path is good. The first step in persuasive communication is to be clear where you want to take the audience. Point X is the definition of where you want to take the audience. If you start with clarity on Point X, it will allow you to chose the best path to take.
Point X is the statement "When I have finished speaking my audience will …." finished with an action.
Most communication fails here. Most communication fails because the speaker does not know what change she really is looking for, is unrealistic about the change, or is vague about how the audience can take action to begin this change.
|Lecture 24
There are four types of audience, and consequent persuasive strategy that you can come upon when you are seeking to move a group to action through your speech.
When providing new information it is vital that you help the listeners "assimilate". How can you make it real for them? There are a number of techniques to bear in mind.
|Lecture 25
There are five things that characterize Deliberate Practice:
There are three fields of human performance where methods for becoming world class have been developed and honed over hundreds of years.
|Lecture 26
|A great storyteller has the ability to create "caring" and "wonder" in the audience.
"Caring" is where the audience engages with the challenge within the story. "Wonder" is where the audience's mind explore the options and create feelings inside them.
The 5 Basic Blocks of Simple Story:
|Lecture 27
|Start strong with a "grabber". A personal story the best way to start strong. It gets the audience hooked and opens their mind to your message. Give the audience a chance to see your personal connection to the topic.
|Lecture 28
|There are 2 ways to call to action:
|Section 10: Further Resources
|Lecture 29
|Great leaders out-read their competition. Here is my suggestion of the key books that you should read as a leader. They cover the basics of business leadership, personal leadership, employee feedback, team strategy and direction and developing the virtue of courage.

Retarded Nose Syndrome. If one has a chronically runny nose from a long-lasting illness, or just unlucky enough to have abnormally runny nose genes, they are said to have RNS. Also sometimes known as Runny Nose Syndrome, for those easily offended.
Heather: Why do you have such a huge pile of nasty tissues by your desk?
Me: I have an acute case of RNS, once it starts it takes hours to die down!
Heather: Real nice.

If you have never tried cinnamon salt water taffy then you don't know what you are missing out on. The flavor of these is perfect. They have a cinnamon blend that is spicy and works just right with the sweet flavor that they have as well.
There is nothing better than the tasty of salt water taffy and when you combine it with cinnamon the flavor really seems to explode. The candies are pink in color and are sure to look great for a many different occasions. You will also like to know that each piece is wrapped individually which is very helpful in making sure that they stay fresh as long as possible. There is just something about the chewy texture of taffy that is able to please so many people. This is a great tasting candy with a great texture that is hard to beat.
Made by: Taffy Town
It's become a tradition that I buy the 5# bag for my wife for Christmas. She loves the Cinnamon Taffy. Besides that, she has a huge stocking (4 ft) to fill! Lol This helps along with the 5# bag of Atomic Fireballs.
My wife loves cinnamon taffy but you don't find it just anywhere. Couldn't even get it at our State Fair this year. She was quite surprised when she unwrapped a 5lb bag just for her Christmas day. It has great flavor and texture. It doesn't just dissolve and disappear, it's nice and chewy.
We order bulk taffy for our candy dishes for customers to enjoy during the Holiday season. The customers (and employees) love the cinnamon salt water taffy!
Pros: Great flavor and soft and chewy.
Cons: Disappears too fast!
Service was fast, the candy delicious, candystore.com is very impressive.
Pros: Freshness!!!!

unicode possibilities
It would be nice if cl-user would display unicode input for CJK text. With PCL and On Lisp getting new printings in Japan, it might be beneficial to attract more brain-share from that side of the world. Would this be considered out of cl-user.net's scope?

re: unicode possibilities
I have to think about it.
The use of English as the standard language is prefered so that the information is useable by most lispers.
I don't mind some other language content though.

text: I saw there was an upgrade from 220...246 then 260. I had downloaded both files and had planned on upgraded to 246 first (then doing the hard reset as it says) then upgrade to 260. However, in the web interface, you can check and upgrade the firmware directly. It worked fine. However, it didnt state anything about doing a hard reset and resetting my settings/options. Should I do this anyway? Was it OK to go from 220 directly to 260? Remind me the purpose of the hard reset? something with NVRAM? thx
