1,000-Plus Years of Knowledge Management
Survivors Pact Evolves Amongst Moulding Manufacturers
This year, the Moulding & Millwork Producers Association (MMPA) is focused on spring for multiple reasons. First, all segments of the millwork industry will emerge from winter hibernation as the market begins to stir in anticipation of the new building year. Second, a sad reality is companies will be looking left and right repeatedly to see who survived the winter months. However, the industry will go forth into 2009 and the plants will come alive as order files begin to grow. There will be business to conduct and the manufacturers will be ready to service their customers. Third, the new administration will be seated in the White House with all the hoopla behind us. Consumer confidence should grow throughout the inauguration process and Obama sitting in the Oval Office may energize the investment community while stabilizing Wall Street (or one can hope). Key to springĺs arrival though, is the fourth reasonŚmoulding manufacturers have made a survivorĺs pact.
Keep Your Head Up
We are living through unprecedented times in the millwork industry. The media reports on the worst economy ever in the history of the nation, the housing market is not predicted to see growth this year and so on and so forth. Trying to keep your head up as you go to the office each day is rough, but it is necessary. Keeping yourself focused on spring when you know housing starts will resume should be your driving force to propel you to tomorrow. Companies have and are making tough business decisions this winter, but those decisions will allow them to see spring arrive. The MMPA moulding manufacturers are vowing to see spring arrive in Lake Las Vegas this coming March. Why?
A survivorĺs pact grew amongst the MMPA members as we headed into winter. The pact could have very easily been one of those half-hearted ôsee you on the other sideö with a wave declarations. But it was not. It is a pledge to reunite at the onset of spring to bounce ideas off one another and lay plans for 2009. The manufacturers are determined to get to the other side of this market with their friends in the MMPA. The MMPA manufacturers plan to share knowledge of the past and have a vision for their future at their next event.
Join the Pact
The MMPA 46th Winter Business Meeting will bring together more than 1,000-plus years of moulding and millwork knowledge in its attendees. Attendees plan to sit down together to engage in the difficult conversations surrounding the current market. Attendees who have 20-, 30- and 40-plus years of experience sharing ideas, exploring what ifs, and networking with their competition. Attendees who manufacture PVC (poly), MDF and wood mouldings will interact at a time when knowledge is crucial to survival.
The speakers addressing the manufacturers will bring 250-plus years of knowledge to the mix. Raw material supply will be addressed for wood and poly producers, along with construction trends in the housing market, a global market report coupled with North American market regional reports, focus groups for poly, MDF and wood, and the ever-popular Roundtable summarizing the entire business meeting on the last day.
The MMPA has a vision for your future and is willing to share its 1,000-plus years of knowledge. Manufacturers and suppliers involved in the poly, MDF and wood moulding industry are invited to add their expertise to the MMPA 46th Winter Business Meeting taking place at the MonteLago Village Resort on Lake Las Vegas in Henderson, Nev., from March 18-20, 2009. Affordable flights and room accommodations will help you make your decision to get on a plane to Las Vegas. For more information on how to share your knowledge, visit the Events Calendar on www.wmmpa.com.
Make the choice to be a survivor, and weĺll see you in Lake Las Vegas come spring.

The Larimer County Sheriff's Office is now investigating a deputy-related shooting that took place Friday night outside of Fort Collins.
Deputies were called to a home in the 100 block of Guardian Peak Drive in Livermore, Colo. shortly before midnight after a woman called 911 to report her ex-boyfriend had arrived at her home. The woman was concerned that the man had overdosed and needed medical attention.
Before deputies arrived at the home, the woman informed them that the man had left the house and was armed with a handgun.
According to Larimer County sheriff's deputies, when they arrived at the home, they came across a man who pointed a handgun at them. The nature of the shooting is still under investigation, but deputies say at that point two shots were fired. One by a deputy and the other by the suspect. The suspect was hit and pronounced dead at the scene.
In a tweet sent out by the Larimer County Sheriff's Office, they wanted to stress that the nature of the shooting is still under investigation.
"Media reports that deputies shot killed Glacier View man are premature." Larimer County Sheriff's Office tweeted early Sunday morning, "Investigation has not reached a conclusion yet and is on-going."
No one else was hurt in the shooting. The Larimer County District Attorney's Office with the Sheriff's Office will investigate the shooting. The suspect's name has not been released until his family can be notified.

Loughner returned to Missouri to resume treatment
Friday, October 14, 2011
PHOENIX (AP) — The suspect in the Tucson shooting rampage is back in a Missouri prison facility where he'll undergo more psychological treatment in an effort to make him mentally fit for trial.
Chris DeRosa, a spokesman for the U.S. Marshals Service, says Jared Lee Loughner was flown Wednesday from Tucson to the U.S. Medical Center for Federal Prisoners in Springfield, Mo.
Loughner was brought to Arizona from Missouri on Sept. 26 for a court hearing. A judge ordered Loughner's four-month stay in Springfield to be extended by another four months, but he stayed in Tucson while defense attorneys filed appeals to try to keep him in Arizona.
Loughner has pleaded not guilty to 49 charges stemming from the Jan. 8 shooting that killed six people and injured 13, including Rep. Gabrielle Giffords.

Transmission Line Siting: A Quantitative Analysis of Transmission Demand and Siting Difficulty
Recent events, such as the California energy crisis, have focused national attention on the growing demand for electricity in the United States and the simultaneously lagging development of electricity transmission infrastructure. In spite of recurring examples of the nation's ailing grid and the widespread call for new transmission construction, transmission line siting is universally described as a difficult and time-consuming process often resulting in construction delays or cancellations of new lines. Problems with individual transmission projects have been attributed primarily to lack of investment incentive, public opposition, regulatory roadblocks, and geographic or environmental constraints. However, most of the information about siting difficulty is anecdotal and project-specific, and there is little comprehensive empirical analysis on the factors affecting transmission line siting. This research addresses the three most fundamental questions of the siting problem: How difficult is siting? What makes it difficult? And finally what can be done to ease the problem? This paper presents four unique measures of the need for transmission capacity and associated siting difficulty, and based on these measures develops a preliminary model for quantitatively evaluating the factors affecting transmission line siting at the state-level.

According to Charlotte estate planning lawyer, Sabrina Winters, the holidays are the perfect time to make sure your will, trust or other estate planning documents are updated so your family stays protected should something unexpectedly happen to you.
"The holidays are a really smart time to make sure your estate plan is exactly how you want it to be should something unexpectedly happen to you and/or your spouse," says Sabrina Winters. "Without an updated estate plan, your children could be left at the mercy of the courts, your assets in limbo and your physical or medical wishes may not be honored in the event of an accident.
Specifically, Sabrina Winters offers four things to consider when updating your estate plan prior to the holiday season:
1. Guardianship nominations: Have you named guardians to care for your children if something happens to you? Have you made sure those guardians will have the financial resources to care for your kids in your absence? Are you even happy with the people you originally chose to care for your kids? Sabrina Winters says if you answered no to any of these questions, it is time to pull your plan out of the drawer and make a few key changes.
2. The effect of marriage, divorce or remarriage: Is your ex-spouse still set to get half of what you own according to the directions of your prior estate plan? If so, according to Sabrina Winters it is time to update. Sabrina Winters recommends reviewing your plan carefully to make sure your beneficiaries are exactly as they should be in case something unexpectedly happens to you.
3. Are your assets owned properly in the name of your trust: If you have a trust, Sabrina Winters says now is a great time to take an inventory of your assets and make sure they are owned properly in the name of that trust. This is one of the most common reasons an estate plan will fail at the end of a person's life.
4. Do you have medical directives and POAs if you are incapacitated? If you are incapacitated in an accident but do not die, Sabrina Winters advises that you will need clear medical directives and power of attorney forms so someone you trust can make medical and financial decisions until you are able to speak for yourself. If medical directives and POA were not included in your original plan, speak with a qualified estate planning attorney to have them drawn up before the hustle and bustle of the season starts.
"An updated estate plan is the greatest gift you can give to your family over the holiday season," says Sabrina Winters. "It is the only way to make sure your children, assets and wishes will stay protected should something happen to you during this dangerous time of the year.

Health Care Reform's Hidden Tax on Annuities
The Obama administration is trying to encourage people to buy annuities for retirement. But a little-noticed provision of the new health care reform law slaps a 3.8% tax on payouts from certain annuities. And, not surprisingly, the life insurance industry isn't happy about that.

All gamefreak has to do is make a grass type with the ability drought and have it learn solarbeam, give it high sweeping stats (SpAtk and Spd) and there you have it! A kickass grass type worth using competitively!
The bug types in the last gen (gen 5) had a huge upgrade from previous gens. No bugs at weedle and parasect's level, but on scizor and heracross's level. All of them (excluding Leavanny) were kickass, such as: Accelgor, Escavalier, Scolipede, Galvantula, Crustle, and ofcourse Volcarona - the king of the bugs. They
don't need an upgrade
I don't believe that we need more ghosts, I think they are meant to be the kind of pokemon that are uncommon and strange - but powerful.
Poison types should have an upgrade in gen 6 just like they did with bugs in gen 5, in my opinion at least.

U.N. chief: More nuclear accidents likely
Thursday, April 21, 2011
KIEV, Ukraine (AP) — The world must prepare for more nuclear accidents on the scale of Chernobyl and Japan's Fukushima Dai-ichi plant, the U.N. chief warned Wednesday, saying that grim reality will demand sharp improvements in international cooperation,
U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and others portrayed the growth of nuclear power plants as inevitable in an energy-hungry world as they spoke at a Kiev conference commemorating the explosion of a reactor at Ukraine's Chernobyl nuclear reactor 25 years ago.
Nuclear power "is a relatively clean and logical choice in an era of increasing resources scarcity," Ban said. "The unfortunate truth is that we are likely to see more such disasters."
During a brief visit to the explosion site 60 miles north of the Ukrainian capital earlier in the day, Ban proposed a strategy for improving nuclear energy security worldwide, including strengthening the International Atomic Energy Agency and devoting more attention to "the new nexus between natural disasters and nuclear safety."
The ongoing crisis at Japan's Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant was triggered by last month's huge earthquake and the ensuing tsunami that flooded the plant.
"Climate change means more incidents of freak weather," Ban said in Kiev. "Our vulnerability will only grow."
IAEA head Yukiya Amano, who accompanied Ban on the trip to Chernobyl, echoed those sentiments.
"Many countries will continue to find nuclear power an important option in the future, and that is why we have to do our utmost to ensure safety," he said, speaking a few hundred yards (meters) from the exploded reactor, which is now covered by a hastily erected sarcophagus.
The sarcophagus has gone past its expected service life and work has begun to build an enormous shelter that will be rolled over the reactor building. The new shelter, designed to last 100 years, is expected to be in place by 2015, but a substantial amount of money for the project is still lacking.
An international donors conference Tuesday in Kiev sought to raise 740 million ($1.1 billion) for the shelter and a storage facility for the spent fuel at the plant's other decommissioned reactors. But in the face of global economic problems, some countries held back from making funding promises and the pledges only came to 550 million ($798 million).
The Chernobyl explosion on April 26, 1986, spewed a cloud of radioactive fallout over much of Europe and forced hundreds of thousands from their homes in the most heavily hit areas. A 30-kilometer (19-mile) area radiating from the plant remains uninhabited except for some plant workers who rotate in and several hundred local people who returned to their homes despite official warnings.
Zsuzsanna Jacab of the U.N.'s World Health Organization told the Kiev conference that some 6,000 cases of thyroid cancer had been diagnosed among people who were children and teens when exposed to the fallout. She said more cases are expected although "the magnitude is difficult to quantify."
Among the 600,000 people most heavily exposed to radiation — which apparently include the estimated 240,000 who worked on the first and most dangerous phase of the plant repair and clean-up — Jacab expects 4,000 more cancer deaths than average to be eventually found.
The U.N. figures have been criticized by the environmental group Greenpeace and others as severely understating Chernobyl's consequences. Even the lower figures represent "an unacceptable price paid by the affected communities," Jacab said.
Ban and others said the Chernobyl and Japan accidents highlighted the need for improved communication between countries about their nuclear programs. And Thorbjorn Jagland, secretary-general of the Council of Europe, drew a political lesson from the crises.
"The more complex technologies become, the more complex societies become, the more important it is to involve civil societies, to have democratic institutions, a free press," he said.
Soviet authorities kept the Chernobyl disaster unreported for several days, and Japanese authorities have been criticized for initially providing insufficient information.

By: Jenée Desmond-Harris Posted: July 26 2011 12:05 PM 0 Mariah Carey debuted a new collection of fashion, jewelry, shoes and fragrances in a two-hour spot on HSN last night, during which her antics made it hard to focus on the products she was supposed to be selling. Even the host seemed confused. Highlights included: "I don't even know what you guys are charging!" Tips on how to mix and match to avoid "Hi, we're twins" moments when wearing jewelry similar to friends'. "I need a fragrant moment." Lots of commentary about the "20 zillion cameras," including, "Take the camera off me, please! I know it's on me! Last time we had an issue. I won't get into it." Her insistence that a necklace can double as a tiara. "There's always drama ... it follows me ... sometimes it's good, sometimes it's bleak." Although the singer complains to no end about what pregnancy with twins did to her body, she clearly didn't lose her, um, unique personality. Read more at Gawker and AOL Black Voices.

Opening The Old Testament
Pray for the Shalom of the City: Reflections on Jeremiah 29:1, 4-7
The letter is for them a jolt. "Build houses and live in them; plant gardens and eat their produce" (Jer. 29:5). House building and agricultural concerns suggest a lengthy sojourn, a settled life in a foreign land. Well, they may have thought, we do need to live, but we can still keep our unique Israelite ways, living in our Israelite houses, eating our beloved Israelite produce from our wonderful Israelite gardens. Given all that, we will still maintain with strictness our Israelite ways. But the next sentence calls all that into question. "Take wives, have sons and daughters; then take wives for your sons and give your daughters in marriage, that they may bear sons and daughters; multiply there (in exile), do not decrease" (Jer. 29:6). This answers the question: how long? Long enough to marry, have children and grandchildren, at least three generations, with the implication of even more. And then there is the sticky question of where these wives and husbands are to come from. Does Jeremiah imply that intermarriage with the locals may be a possibility or perhaps even a necessity in order to keep the community alive and vibrant? The next sentence may certainly imply that possibility.
"Seek the shalom of the city where I have exiled you, and pray to YHWH on its behalf, because in its shalom you will find your shalom" (Jer. 29:7). Pray to YHWH for the shalom, the peace and welfare and soundness, of Babylon, the pagan center of all things we know as evil? What can Jeremiah mean by that astonishing request? Because YHWH is in fact God of Babylon, too, not the so-called mighty Marduk living at the top of the great building in the city, it means that YHWH has deep concern for Babylon, the place where YHWH's people now live and will live for many years. Rather than hold their noses in horror at the pagans who would taint them, YHWH says they must pray for them, because all are in the world of YHWH together. This is nothing less than a call for the exiled Judeans to open their lives and hearts to the people among whom they now have been forced to live. Rather than close their lives to the Babylonians, Jeremiah asks them to open up their lives and to learn and grow in the new reality of Babylon.
Jeremiah concludes this portion of his brief note by warning the exiles not to listen to other so-called prophets and diviners who speak a different word, words presumably that would urge them to keep to themselves, to insist on their own rightness and righteousness, to attack any who would dare to act and believe differently than they do (Jer. 29:8-9). YHWH did not send them, says Jeremiah, and if they prophesy in the name of YHWH, they are lying.
How current all of this sounds to my 21st-century ears. In a world of increasing diversity where so many find themselves exiled from what they know, from what they have done, from their familiar actions in the world, how are we who are in power in these places to react to their presence among us? And how are they to live in their new place? In Dallas, TX 229 different first languages are spoken; exiles are living here in huge numbers. Jeremiah asks them to pray for the shalom of their new home, while I am asked to open up my lives to them. Only in these ways may we all discover the full shalom of the world of God.

NEW YORK — Is the stock market due for a pullback?
The Dow Jones industrial average has surged 900 points since early October and crossed the 16,000-point threshold Monday. IPOs are hot again. Small investors, stirred from their post-recession daze, are coming back to stocks. And it's been more than two years since the market has had a significant slump.
Those trends have raised concerns of a stock bubble. They shouldn't, money managers say, because even with the broader market's 26 percent jump this year, stocks aren't overpriced yet.
"Stocks are not cheap, but that does not mean that the stock market is expensive," says Russ Koesterich, chief investment strategist with Blackrock.
The ratio of stock prices to projected profits for companies in the Standard & Poor's 500 index is 15, according to data from FactSet. That's slightly below the average of 16.2 over the last 15 years and far below the peak of 25 in the late 1990s and early 2000s.
Underneath the rally, most of the fundamentals of this market remain solid. Corporate profit margins are near historic highs, and profits are expected to keep rising. There are no signs the U.S. economy, which is still recovering from the 2008 financial crisis and Great Recession, will slip back into a downturn.
All that leaves investors with conflicting feelings. Few see the stock market as attractive as it was at the beginning of the year, but fewer see an alternative where they should put their money.
Bonds are down 2.1 percent this year. Cash has a near-zero return in money market funds. Gold has dropped 24 percent.

The Star on the Starr Report
And other tabloid news about Diana and JonBenet.
The tabloids hit a macabre trifecta this month with extensive reports on three of their major stories: the murder of JonBenet Ramsey, the death of Princess Diana, and the dead duck presidency of Bill Clinton.
Who killed JonBenet, the 6-year-old beauty queen, has been an obsession of the tabs since her father found her body in the basement of their Boulder, Colo., mansion in December 1996. The coverage of the investigation has been like the course of a long, fatal illness, with many remissions and recurrences. But this week, at least, the tabs indicate the end may be near. Each of the three weeklies touts different "bombshell" allegations that tie the girl's parents to her death.
JonBenet's wealthy father, John Ramsey, wasn't as surprised by the discovery of his daughter's body as you might suspect, says the National Enquirer, citing grand jury testimony by the Ramseys' former friend Fleet White. According to the publication, White looked in the basement for the supposedly kidnapped girl but, unable to locate a light switch, he couldn't see anything in one of the pitch-dark, windowless rooms. Later, the Enquirer says he testified, Ramsey started screaming at the entrance to that room before he flicked on the switch, leading White to believe Ramsey already knew his daughter's body was there. The Enquirer also says Ramsey tried to convince authorities that an intruder had entered the house by lifting a grate outside the basement. But, the Enquirer reports, analysis by arachnologist Brent Opell of a spider web covering the grate indicates it had been undisturbed for at least a month prior to JonBenet's death. Oh, what a tangled web we weave.
A pair of beaver skin boots could implicate JonBenet's mother, Patsy, declares the Star. Referring to "top-secret police files," the publication says that a strand of animal fur was found on the duct tape used to cover the murdered girl's mouth. Police suspect it will match the boots Patsy was wearing the night of the murder. Also, three weeks after the murder, a bookkeeper at a Boulder hardware store notified police that a man named John had called wanting copies of receipts for purchases charged by Patsy Ramsey. Police believe the duct tape was bought at the store, but the receipt listed only prices, not specific items. Also, John and Patsy told police that they had put their daughter to bed after Christmas dinner and never seen her alive again. But an autopsy revealed that at midnight JonBenet had a snack of pineapple--fingerprints on a kitchen bowl indicate she and her mother and brother ate together--and that she died around two hours later.
The Globe touts an "exclusive" from a "tipster" who claims that in the hours after JonBenet was discovered, John Ramsey gave away a box--supposedly of the girl's personal items--so they wouldn't "get ruined during the investigation." The Globe claims that the box actually contains the sheets and several stuffed animals that were on her bed the night of her murder, as well as the nightgown she was wearing. An informed source told the Globe the allegations are "totally misinformed" and "completely inaccurate."
On the anniversary of Diana's death, the tabs exhume their theories about the nefarious reasons her life was cut short. The Star floats what could be called the Anne Boleyn theory--that is, the British government had Diana murdered. Their evidence doesn't quite rise to the level where it could be characterized as preposterous. Here it goes: The drunken driver of the car in which Diana died, Henri Paul, had more than $200,000 in the bank, although he earned only $30,000 a year. This indicates to the Star that he was an informer for British intelligence. Richard Tomlinson, an ex-employee of MI6 who was jailed last year for trying to sell his memoirs, asserts that only the British would pay a Frenchman that well. "French intelligence would never pay him that amount of money," says Tomlinson. Aside from the issue of pay scales on either side of the Channel, even if Paul was an informer, the Star doesn't grapple with why MI6 would want Diana dead. Like Boleyn, she may have been an incompliant consort, but by then she was a former one.
Into the breach steps the Enquirer, whose theory is that the car accident was the result of a kidnapping gone wrong. British intelligence didn't want to kill Diana and her boyfriend Dodi Al Fayed, it simply wanted to scare them apart because, asserts Islamic scholar Yaqub Zaki, "the idea of the future King of England, Prince William, having a Muslim stepfather was intolerable. And the idea of a half-brother or half-sister with brown skin was unthinkable."
If there was a murder plot, the Globe may have unwittingly ended up pointing the finger at a really big fish. In this week's issue the publication reports that shortly before she died, Diana "told pals she was planning to remarry the prince!" Now, if this were true, there is certainly one person who would want to make sure such an event never came to pass. Or to put it another way, does anyone really know where Queen Elizabeth was the night of Diana's death?
The tabs are filled with royal news this month. Most disturbing is a report in the Globe that Prince Charles might be suffering from Alzheimer's disease. The publication says royal insiders are worried about an apparent decline in Charles' short-term memory and say the prince has turned to a specialist for help. Helping Charles' sons deal with their grief over their mother's death is former nanny Tiggy Legge-Bourke. Although Diana "despised" her for calling the boys "my babies" (according to the Enquirer), a royal insider says, "If Di's looking down from heaven, I'm sure she's forgiven her." And love has found an ex-member of the British royal family. According the Enquirer Sarah Ferguson is "head over heels" over Italian Count Gaddo della Gherardesca. As the Enquirer says, nobody would begrudge Fergie a little happiness, but how much more euphonious it would be if Tiggy Legge-Bourke had coupled with Gaddo della Gherardesca. Finally an item in the Globe wins this month's "When Hell Freezes Over" award. According to the publication, Frank Sinatra's widow, Barbara, has set her sights on Grace Kelly's widower, Prince Rainier of Monaco. Reports the Globe: "Now pals say it's only a matter of time before Barbara's mourning is over and she flies off to Monaco and a new life with Rainier."
Stuck in his old life is our commander in chief, and the tabs take notably different approaches to his predicament. Last week the Enquirer delivered when it said it found out the "shocking truth behind the Zippergate scandal." And what is this new, depraved revelation?

Christina Aguilera Embraces Life as a "Fat Girl"
The woman made famous for her amazing voice has been getting much more attention lately for her voluptuous figure. Thirty-one-year old performer and mother Christina Aguilera is much curvier than she was when she first burst onto the scene as a teenage singing sensation in 1998.
Earlier this year, Christina was slammed for her weight after making concert appearances in scantily clad ensembles revealing a much curvier figure. Specifically, she drew much attention for her appearance at the Michael Jackson Tribute Concert after uncomfortably donning a tight corset and fishnet stockings during her performance.
The star admitted to drinking more after going through her divorce from former husband of five years, Jordan Bratman, and being lax on her diet.
Her poor diet choices and junk food binge eating slip-ups added up to lots of extra calories and plenty of weight gain. As a result, Aguilera's weight has fluctuated drastically over the last several years.
Proof of this came just months after her Michael Jackson Tribute appearance when she was photographed looking much slimmer and seemingly "back on track" in terms of her health and her size.

U.S. Army Materiel Command launches full online presence
May 21, 2009
Story Highlights
- AMC can now be found on Facebook, YouTube, Flickr, iReport, LinkedIn and Twitter
- ...we educate a whole new population on the efforts of AMC's Soldiers, civilians and contractors," said Col. Archie Davis
- "We recognize the importance of engaging on social media platforms," said Lt. Col. Kevin Arata
- AMC public affairs practitioners across the world are highly encouraged to use these new tools.

The U.S. Army Materiel Command can now be found on many of your favorite social media Web sites including Facebook, YouTube, Flickr, iReport, LinkedIn and Twitter.

"By taking our message to the general public, rather than expecting them to come to us, we educate a whole new population on the efforts of AMC's Soldiers, civilians and contractors," said Col. Archie Davis, AMC chief of Public and Congressional Affairs.

AMC provides superior technology, acquisition support and logistics to ensure dominant land force capability for Soldiers, the United States, and our Allies. In layman's terms - if a Soldier shoots it, drives it, flies it, wears it, communicates with it, or eats it - AMC provides it.

"We recognize the importance of engaging on social media platforms, such as those where AMC is engaged. This is how and where our audience gets much of their news," said Lt. Col. Kevin Arata, chief of the newly established Army Public Affairs Online and Social Media Division.

The AMC Public Affairs team began work on the various sites in late 2008. The command features images and video from its events on Flickr and highlights command-wide videos; its podcast program, the AMC NewsCast; and its video news program, the AMC News Dispatch; on YouTube and iReport. AMC's Facebook and Twitter pages combine all of these venues, and the AMC news RSS feed allows those interested to stay up-to-date.

"We are here on these platforms because in our absence other mostly well-intentioned people are speaking on behalf of the Army anyway. Our official presence on these sites fills that void with the Army's official voice," said Arata.

Davis went on to say that AMC public affairs practitioners across the world are highly encouraged to use these new tools, and many already have.

In the last year, several of AMC's subordinate organizations have launched sites of their own, including U.S. Army Research, Development and Engineering Command on YouTube, Facebook and Twitter; U.S. Army Element Assembled Chemical Weapons Alternatives can be found on YouTube and have an RSS feed; Joint Munitions Command has YouTube and TroopTube pages; Military Surface Deployment and Distribution Command is on Flickr; and Picatinny Arsenal recently joined Twitter.

"The efforts at AMC are the embodiment of the DoD principles of information: maximum disclosure, minimum delay. Working in the social media sphere puts information at the fingertips of taxpayers and opens channels of communication with those interested in what we do," said Jack Holt, DoD's senior strategist for emerging media. "There is no greater strategic communication requirement for Department of Defense than keeping the public informed."

While a number of early winter series race were canceled due to frost and too much wind, the last day was perfect, 15 kts, sunny and relatively warm. The first day, the fleet managed to get in four races. It was hard fought. First place and well ahead of the field was Team Henri Lloyd. Behind it was an exciting fight to place 2, 3 and 4.
On the second day of sailing, again a persistent wind permitted four more races to be run. The J/22 field started sharp, resulting in an X-flag for subsequent starts! In the end, the two top boats, GER1513 and NED 1591 match-raced to determine who would be the winner with NED 1591 winning the battle within the fleet. It was a great finale to the Winter Series 2011/2012. Now on to a good racing season, with the highlight of course the World Cup in France. For more Netherlands J/22 Sailing information

Join the campaign to help thousands of dogs languishing in Missouri's puppy mills.Sign the pledge to save them.
Trouble with links or images? View this message online.
July 30, 2010
One state in the nation is home to more puppy mill suffering than any other: Missouri. But with your help, we can change this sad fact in a single day.
Will you help us make this happen -- by signing the pledge to save Missouri's puppy mill dogs?
This November 2, Election Day, Missourians will likely vote on a citizen initiative to prevent suffering for tens of thousands of dogs languishing in cruel puppy mills. These high-volume commercial factories breed dogs under harsh conditions with inadequate shelter and care.
Tragically, approximately 40 percent of all pet store puppies nationwide come from Missouri, where nearly 200,000 breeding dogs produce up to a million puppies a year.
Unbelievably, large-scale puppy mills in Missouri are allowed to keep dogs in small wire cages, stacked on top of each other, for their entire lives. They often don't get exercise, sunlight, companionship, or human interaction -- they live in filth and excrement and suffer discomfort and injuries from standing on wire for years on end.
Today, I invite you to help save these puppy mill dogs by signing a simple pledge. When you sign, you'll join Missourians for the Protection of Dogs, the coalition backing the Missouri ballot initiative, and which includes The Humane Society of the United States. Then, you will receive alerts from the campaign on how to help. You don't have to live in Missouri to help, because this campaign can lead to reforms at commercial breeding facilities nationwide.
This ballot measure will turn around Missouri's reputation as the inhumane puppy mill capital of the world, and will require that dogs receive basic standards of humane care, such as food, water, space, and exercise. Reform in Missouri would follow on the heels of more than a dozen states that have cracked down on puppy mills recently, including Iowa and Oklahoma. By continuing the fight for dogs and voting to phase out the worst puppy mill abuses in Missouri, what happens on November 2 will help lead to nationwide reform.
We'll be giving it our all to make sure this initiative passes -- but we need your help to win. Together, we will ensure that Missouri's dogs are treated with compassion. Please take the pledge and be a part of this historic campaign.
Thank you for helping Missouri's dogs, and for all you do for animals.

Life gets very busy for all of us, theres no doubt about it that all homeowners are time poor now, life is just so busy and there are so many demands on our time for absolutely everything imaginable, it seems things never end. Of course this busyness also has impacts on our homes, lawns and gardens, and how we care for them, with so little time, how are we to keep up with everything that is needed to keep our homes lawns and gardens in top notch shape? And so this is where the home services sector comes into the picture, and perhaps to the rescue to help us with all our regular home maintenance needs, including the use of lawn mowing services.
One such sector is of course the lawn mowing service industry, where lawn mowing contractors, gardening professionals and lawn care contractors are here to look after our lawns, mow our lawns, prune our trees and roses, spray for lawn weeds, as well as so much more, and everything that in involved with taking care of our lawns and gardens and keeping them maintained to a very high standard. These are of course all big jobs that will save us a lot of time, in exchange for relatively small fees for the provision of these services.
Being top notch professional lawn care contractors, these men and women will usually be using the latest lawn mowers and gardening equipment, all in good condition, which is great news for our lawns as they are being taken care of. Added to this is that the garden edges will usually be trimmed, which always makes for a beautiful back yard, or even front yard, the edges are such an important part of finishing off a lawn so that it looks its absolute best at all times. So these are just some of the ways to manage our time and to free up more time for us to enjoy whenever we have our own time off from work and other activities, though of course this article mainly deals with lawns and gardens.

Turning Yourself In A Professional At Baseball
It is truly incredible the lure that baseball through the years. From kids dreaming about playing within the major leagues, towards the weekend competition out on the fields, the broad range of fans is absolutely impressive. The article below has useful information regarding enjoying baseball a lot more.
Should you run a baseball team, recognize that keeping a team happy and excited might help these people to win. Group activities including pizza parties may help your team bond them together. Most importantly, teach your team that it's just a game plus a loss is not the conclusion around the world.
Should you bat right handed, you are able to put weight on your right foot which means your thigh muscle is far more tight on that side. This offers you power coming from the rear foot during your swing.
Put your third finger firmly nearby the seam of the baseball. This will allow you to a company grip on the ball properly so you can throw it far along with fast while being accurate.
Batting helmets needs to be worn when showing up in the ball. These helmets make certain you won't suffer serious head injury. Good helmets will also have a shield to protect your skin from poorly pitched balls or unpredictable foul ball hits.
You may help spur your team has.You want to be a person whose dedication is an example to others. This sort of leadership quality and it helps this game to have given serious attention. You may be the main difference maker and team leader that your particular teammates turn to for answers.
When you coach baseball, keep a regular practice routine. Next, do a little base running drills to have the body warm. Finish with 10 mins of position-specific defenses and then a cool down. Possess a short team meeting, and practice is done.
Right-handed batters usually hit more balls left field. A lefty will hit toward the right field. Understanding these directions will help you determine where the ball is probably going to head.
The grass on the outfield affects how ground balls roll. The lines that you see cut in to the outfield will often increase the risk for baseball's course to alter mainly because it rolls on a lawn. Whenever you lean how the ball acts while on a lawn, it is possible to anticipate where it will likely be in the event it stops.
You could lose sight in the ball due to stadium lights or even the sun.
Reach to catch the ball within a compact motion, ensuring one foot remains in the base all the time.
Don't fear sacrificing yourself if you're a batter.That's all a part of being on the team player. You may have to bunt your teammate over. You might have to grin and bear it, but bear in mind it's everything about the team wins!
To hold from being called for catcher's interference, remain in position before you catch the pitch. When a runner takes off to steal, you can start to increase because the pitch nears you however, if however you step forward and acquire your glove in the way of the bat, he gets to visit first base.
You need to know why people like baseball. It's actually an easy game after breaking it down, and also this advice should assist you to understand all of it. Keep the following tips close at hand in case you forget something. how to watch cricket online


text: Duke Nukem Forever: Hands-on playtest Gaming 11 February 11 by Chris Kohler 2K Games Most first-person shooters start with a massive battle to get the player's heart racing, something that sets the tone for what's to come. Duke Nukem Forever opens with the main character relieving himself in a urinal."This is taking forever," he grumbles midstream. You can say that again, Duke.Duke Nukem Forever is the story of a steroid-popping, booze-guzzling misogynist jackass who saves the world from an alien invasion. It is also the most infamous unreleased videogame in the history of the medium.Announced in 1997, Duke Nukem Forever went through more than a decade of development hell as creator 3D Realms constantly scrapped and rebuilt the game. In 2010, following the shutdown of 3D Realms' internal studio, Gearbox Studios bought the rights to Duke and said it would finish the game by the middle of 2011.This time, it looks like only an actual alien invasion could keep Duke Nukem Forever from its May 6 release date for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC.2K Games invited journalists to play the first 90 minutes of the game Tuesday at the Deja Vu Erotic Ultra Lounge in Las Vegas. For any other game preview, a strip club would have been a ludicrous choice of venue. But for Duke Nukem Forever -- an unapologetic celebration of raunch, classlessness and poor life decisions -- there could be no better setting. Custom-made neon signs over the entrance rechristened the club "Duke Nukem's Titty City" for the day.Standing atop a pole-dancing platform, Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford prepped us for "a real, honest look" at the game that would go deeper than the brief Duke demo at Penny Arcade Expo last year. After my first legitimate hands-on experience with the title, it's clear that -- for better or worse -- Duke Nukem Forever plays like a videogame conceived in 1997.Current trends say that shooters like Halo and Call of Duty must be pared down ruthlessly into a brief string of exciting moments that follow one after the other at a rapid-fire pace. These games brake for nobody.Duke Nukem Forever bucks this conventional wisdom. The game takes its sweet time, deploying plenty of puzzles, goofy mini-games and segments that ask the player to do nothing but walk along and soak up the atmosphere, admiring the paintings on the walls of Duke's mansion.In fact, for the first hour of the game, it seems like Duke Nukem Forever wants you to do anything but shoot aliens. But there's a method to this sluggish madness: Duke the character may possess all the depth of a kiddie pool, but for the game's fiction to work, players must feel like they're taking on the role of the cigar-chomping egomaniac.The box art for Duke Nukem Forever puts the focus right where it belongs, on Duke himself. Duke is not the sort of personality-free camera-on-a-stick that serves as the protagonist of many first-person shooters. And Duke's not a stand-in for you.

One of the oldest video game magazines around is closing up shop.GamePro, which has been covering the video game industry for 22 years, has announced its November issue will be its last, due to declining ad revenues. The magazine's website will also be shutting down, redirecting visitors to PCWorld.com starting December 5.
Times have been tough for the magazine for a while now. In July, GamePro's owner decided to gamble with a new publishing schedule, eliminating monthly issues for a quarterly format. The gamble, however, failed to pay off.
"The U.S. editorial and business staff worked hard to earn a passionate, loyal following for GamePro and I am grateful for their dedication and hard work over the years," said Mike Kisseberth, who heads up IDG's Consumer and Small Business media group. "GamePro, like all businesses, must keep up with industry changes and economic realities."
While the magazine is gone, the GamePro name will continue to live on — albeit in a different fashion. The publication's parent company plans to use it as a custom publishing company for events like E3's show daily. It will also be used as a subsite of PCWorld, but many of the magazine's staff has been laid off.
The game magazine business as a whole is a shaky one these days, with many publications struggling. Future Publishing, the parent company of Nintendo Power, PC Gamer and Official Xbox Magazine, merged its U.S. and U.K. operations earlier this week and recently announced plans to shift resources away from print and more towards online publishing.
About the only game magazine that's showing strength, in fact, is Game Informer, which enjoys a significant presence in GameStop stores since the retailer owns the magazine. As a result, publishers still battle each other for the magazine's cover.
While the print world loses another gaming publication, the online world is mourning the shutdown of another popular game information site. Indie game site GameSetWatch has announced plans to go on "semi-permanent hiatus" after six years.
Founder Simon Carless says the decision was made not for economic reasons, but because of an increasing overlap in coverage with sister site IndieGames.com as well as the more thorough coverage of off kilter titles by mainstream game blogs.

The Motions and Mechanics of a Truck-Mounted Crane

Mads Herring Jensen | February 25, 2015
When inside a room — a conference room, concert hall, or even a car — everyone has an opinion of when the "acoustics" are good or bad. In room acoustics, we want to study this notion of sound quality in a quantitative way. In short, room acoustics is concerned with assessing the acoustics of enclosed spaces. The Acoustics Module of COMSOL Multiphysics has several tools to simulate the acoustics of rooms and other confined spaces. I will present those here.

A thermostat is a device that senses the temperature of a system and uses this information to control the system's heaters, or coolers, to keep the temperature close to a desired setpoint. While there are many different types of thermostats, we will focus today on one that turns a heater either on or off based upon two setpoints. This is known as an on-off or a bang-bang controller, and it can be implemented with the Events interface in COMSOL Multiphysics.

Acoustic radiation force is an important nonlinear acoustic phenomenon that manifests itself as a nonzero force exerted by acoustic fields on particles. Acoustic radiation is an acoustophoretic phenomenon, that is, the movement of objects by sound. One interesting example of this force in action is the acoustic particle levitation discussed in this previous blog post. Today, we shall examine the nature of this force and show how it can be computed using COMSOL Multiphysics.

In the past, I've received regular requests for the ability to check the view factors used by COMSOL Multiphysics. How accurate are they? What is the impact of a given parameter (mesh size, radiation resolution, etc.) on their accuracy? Good news: Version 5.0 provides new operators for postprocessing that correspond to the operators used to generate surface-to-surface equations. Allow me to demonstrate how to compute geometrical view factors.

We often get requests of the type "I would like to just enter my measured stress-strain curve directly into COMSOL Multiphysics". In this new blog series, we will take a detailed look at how you can process and interpret material data from tests. We will also explain why it is not a good idea to just enter a simple stress-strain curve as input.

Previous work on cloaking for flexural waves in elastic plates presented limitations and near invisibility. Now, a research group in Europe has figured out a new theoretical framework to both overcome the limitations and achieve exact cloaking for flexural waves in Kirchhoff-Love plates. To visualize and test the quality of the cloak, they ran COMSOL Multiphysics simulations.
Ed Gonzalez | January 9, 2015
Nonlinear elastic materials present nonlinear stress-strain relationships even at infinitesimal strains — as opposed to hyperelastic materials, where stress-strain curves become significantly nonlinear at moderate to large strains. Important materials of this class are Ramberg-Osgood for modeling metals and other ductile materials and nonlinear soils models, such as the Duncan-Chang model.

Depending on their magnitude and frequency, vibrations can be a source of discomfort and even pain for the human body. The impact of these vibrations is surely felt, but wouldn't it be interesting to visualize how different parts of the human body respond when placed in such an environment? We introduce you to a multibody model that enables you to analyze the body's dynamic response to vibrations.

Most area river levels begin falling
Saturday, April 30, 2011
Despite the forecast for more rain this weekend, officials with the National Weather Service in St. Louis reports that the Jefferson City area will continue to be spared the flooding problems seen in the southern and eastern parts of the state.
"Unless heavy rains fall in the upstream areas of the Missouri River, you should be fine," said meteorologist Ben Miller.
The Missouri River was at 18 feet and falling Friday in Jefferson City.
Miller said both the Moreau and Maries rivers have risen and fallen fairly quickly with the recent rains, but only the Maries had a flood warning. The warning was issued when the Maries went a foot above flood stage for a few hours on Tuesday.
They don't foresee flooding threats at the Lake of the Ozarks and Bagnell Dam.
"This weekend's rain shouldn't be particularly heavy," Miller said. "The south and east parts of the state will get it again, unfortunately the places that don't need it."
While some secondary roads have been closed by flooding in Gasconade, Osage and Maries counties, MoDOT officials said their status could change quickly.
They recommended residents check the latest road conditions by going online to modot.org or calling 1-888-275-6636.

Lymphatic drainage through the feet DETOXificationHidrolinfa
- What is Hidrolinfa?
- Why through the feet?
- What is the relation between feet and the Organism?
- What are the benefits, directly and indirectly, in several situations?
- What are the contra-indications?
- What is the recommended treatment for best results?
Q. What is Hidrolinfa?
Hidrolinfas' electronic system along with the conductivity of water enhanced by salt, creates a controlled electromagnetic field.
Q. Why through the feet?
In each foot there are, approximately, 2.000 pores, becoming the ideal point of application.
The feet are the end of blood and lymphatic circulation and are above all the first to suffer from problems in circulation and trouble elsewhere in the body.
Due to the beneficial effects of the combination Water / Air / Magnetic Fields, the hydro-massage has also several indications for health and beauty.
Q. What is the relation between feet and the Organism?
Feet reflect every organ and gland of our organism.
Massage by electromagnetic impulses activates the healing mechanism that exists inside of each one of us; its effects are cumulative, this is, at each new session the feeling of physical and emotional well-being is reinforced.
Once the areas that reflect our organs are stimulated, an anxiety relieve is immediately felt, resulting in a major physical strength, helping the body recovering from muscular wearing.
Q. What are the benefits, directly and indirectly, in several situations?
For people who suffer from heavy and swollen legs, to make a Hidrolinfa treatment is a unique sensation of relieve and well-being. Besides, it functions as an organism defense, neutralizing the infectious agents and producing antibodies.
Hidrolinfa makes the lymphatic and the circulatory systems flowing more efficiently, it also makes the bio-energetic balance of the organism helping removing liquids in excess and preventing the duplication of adipose cells.
The well-being provided through this therapy is beneficial and helps fighting any kind of disease, once it establishes better communication between organs and the defence system of the organism.
Benefits, directly and indirectly, in several situations from Hidrolinfa treatment:
|Bad circulation, Varices, Varicosis;
Menstrual Cramps, Headaches, Migraines;
Arthritis and Rheumatism;
Cardiovascular Problems;
Reduction of Cellulite;
"Orange peel" Skin;
Reduction of Diabetes;
Quick draining in several circulatory problems, namely in feet;
Improvement of the liver, stomach, eyes, intestine, kidney and bladder;
Prevention of cardiovascular diseases (infarct, thrombosis);
Benefits in the ovaries, uterus;
To clear the sockets attacked by pollution and nicotine;
Back disorders (slipped disk, sciatic hernia, lumbago);
It improves Insomnias;
Tired legs and feet pain;
Diseases provoked by acid uric;
Body balance, well-being;
Stress, Depressions, Anxiety.
Q. What are the contra-indications?
Pacemaker holders;
Metallic prostheses holders in the feet;
Persons with epilepsy;
Persons in postoperative period;
Persons with acute inflammation;
Wait 2 hours after lunch or dinner.
Q. What is the recommended treatment for best results?
Recommended treatment for best results requires 30-45 min. per
1e Phase / 1 monthth
Adults – 2-3 times a week.
Kids (from 12years on) 1-2 times a week
2e Phase / Following months
Adults - 1-2 times a week
Kids - 1 time a week
Costs: € 25 per treatment. Card for 10 treatments: € 250 plus 1 treatment for free
Also possible in combination with other treatments.

The ever-provocative Paglia returns with a survey of Western art, captured in 24 essays that move from Egyptian tombs to Eleanor Antin's conceptual art project 100 Boots. In the end, she proclaims that the avant-garde is dead and that George Lucas is our greatest living artist. This will get the smart folks talking.[Page 55]. (c) Copyright 2012. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
We are living in an age of visual "vertigo" and "must relearn how to see," argues academic and critic Paglia (Sexual Personae) in this highly reflective and imaginative history of images in Western art. Paglia begins with the Luxor paintings of Queen Nefertiti's journey to the afterlife and ends with Revenge of the Sith by filmmaker George Lucas, who she argues is the greatest contemporary master of synthesizing art and technology. Intentionally organized as a devotional where the reader observes and contemplates one image at a time, Paglia traces the major periods of Western art image by image, so that each brief chapter could be a stand-alone essay. While some of Paglia's choices are somewhat predictable (Bernini's Chair of Saint Peter as an example of the baroque; David's Death of Marat for neo-classicism; Jackson Pollock's Green Silver as an example of abstract expressionism) her image choices for romanticism (The Sea of Ice by Caspar David Friedrich) and surrealism (The Portrait by René Magritte) are less so. Paglia writes with energetic lucidity, and her entries on the Laocoön and Donatello's Mary Magdalene are standouts in this absorbing volume. Both a valuable cultural critique and an elucidating history, Paglia's latest would suit the general reader, as well as those looking for an alternative approach to contemporary ways of seeing.
