|Issues of concern
|By Ton Haverkort
|Monday, 09 January 2012 10:32
Last week we looked into issues that we are concerned about and whether we can have some influence in changing things around.Issues of concern include but are not limited to national and international politics
, disasters and emergencies, terrorism, extremism and closer to home the costs of living, the education of our children, crime, our health, our jobs, the business etc. All are issues to be concerned about indeed but not everybody is in a position to influence them. There are issues within our so called circle of concern and there are issues within our smaller circle of influence. If your circle of concern is big and your circle of influence is small, chances are that your life and business are at the mercy of your external environment. Your situation is dictated by other people, circumstances and factors and you have a lot to worry about. The point is to realize how big your circle of concern and your circle of influence are in relation to each other and ask yourself what to do to enlarge your circle of influence to push towards your circle of concern. In other words, make up your mind about the issues that you are concerned about, decide whether or not you want to do something about it and subsequently work on enhancing your influence on the issue. If you come to the conclusion that an issue is not for you to have any influence over, it may be better to stop being concerned about it at all. Instead focus on what you can have a (growing) influence over: Our degrading environment for example and the subsequent loss of natural resources.

Eight candidates running for Vincent councilPublished 4:17pm Tuesday, August 7, 2012
Bob Gorum, a retired art teacher, also served in the military for 14 years under three different branches.
"I went to City Council meetings, and I saw how the regular people were being handled. Any issues that were coming up, they were not doing it correctly in my view, so I offered my services. It just seemed like they were keeping everybody in the dark when it came to the quarry," Gorum said.
Gorum said the council has a responsibility to serve the residents.
"I want to treat them like real citizens, and I want to get their input as much as I possibly can into the council," Gorum said. "My address and phone number is going to be available. I can't answer for little things that happen in their family or their land, but I can at least voice their opinion as much as I possibly can."
Bruce Hamilton, the area sales manager for Buffalo Rock Company's Gadsden/Talladega division, has lived in the Vincent-Harpersville area for 17 years.
He said he hopes to pave the streets in the Willows subdivision, as well as other streets. He also wants to increase town involvement in youth sports.
Incumbent Mary Lee Reynolds has been involved with the town for 35 years, as she was the town clerk of Vincent.
"I'm running because I like to finish what I start," Reynolds said. "We're in the middle of quite a few things in the park and other areas. Our biggest park is in my district, as are the schools.
"I hope that we can make a better park than the one we have, that we can add to it. I have been involved in the town for 35 years now," she added. "There's just so much that needs to be done, and I want to be a part of it."

State minister's killing dampens holiday spirit
Suicide attack leaves nine dead as Christian community issues holiday cautions
ucanews.com reporter, Peshawar
December 23, 2012
The Christian community in Peshawar has expressed grief over the killing of a provincial minister in a Taliban suicide attack yesterday and has warned churches to curb planned Christmas activities.
Senior Minister Bashir Ahmad Bilour, 69, of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province was killed on Saturday along with eight others by a suicide bomber. Eighteen others were injured in the attack.
Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan spokesman Ehsanullah Ehsan claimed responsibility for the attack and warned that others who opposed the Taliban would be targeted.
Bilour was one of the most outspoken critics of the Taliban in Pakistan and the highest-profile assassination victim in recent months. Christian and other minority communities in northwest Pakistan have long considered him an important political ally.
The provincial government announced three days of mourning and a Christmas event at the Peshawar governor's house has been cancelled.
Church of Pakistan Bishop Humphrey Peters of Peshawar requested that all churches turn off their outdoor lights and cancel all public parties on Christmas Eve.
"[Bilour] was so close to the Church and often asked us to pray for him and the country amid the war on terror," Bishop Peters said.
"We have lost a broad-minded politician who had good relations with the minority communities in this Taliban-infested region."
Pastor Ejaz Gill of the All Saints Church, located near the historic Qissa Khawani bazaar where Bilour was killed, said the minister made key contributions to improving the educational and health sectors in the province.
"He funded several developmental projects in mission schools and a hospital. We are deeply depressed."
The killing comes just months ahead of planned national elections.
About 36,000 people have been killed by violence in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province and the Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) since 2001, according to local media reports.
More than 1,000 schools have also been destroyed, along with an estimated 90 percent of the area's railway infrastructure.

1. Field of the Invention
Embodiments of the present invention relate to techniques for routing data in a network. More specifically, embodiments of the present invention relate to a method for performing load balancing using multiple paths at a node.
2. Related Art
The ever-growing Internet traffic, combined with numerous emerging wireless applications, is placing a progressively heavier burden on network links. Load balancing is an important technique for mitigating network congestion and for removing "hot-spot" links in a network. With load balancing, a node forwards a received data packet to different output links, and hence onto multiple paths leading to the same destination.
A number of approaches are currently available for establishing multiple paths from a source to a destination by finding "link-disjoint" or "node-disjoint" paths. Finding link- or node-disjoint paths, however, introduces additional states into the network, and hence makes path maintenance much more complicated. As a result, maintaining the network states to preserve disjoint paths can be very expensive. The use of link-disjoint or node-disjoint paths is largely motivated by the concern for network reliability, because a link-disjoint or node-disjoint path can eliminate a single point of failure, such as a node failure or a link failure. However, using only link-disjoint or node-disjoint paths imposes unnecessary constraints to load balancing, because load balancing can only occur at the source node or at a node which intersects multiple paths.
Moreover, imposing link or node disjointedness is particularly burdensome to a heterogeneous network, such as a mobile ad hoc network for wireless devices. Wireless devices often have multiple network interfaces based on different technologies and protocols. For example, a given wireless device can have interfaces for IEEE 802.11 WiFi technology, Bluetooth technology, 2G or 3G cellular data-interface technology, and IEEE 802.15.4 Zigbee technology, and infrared technology. In such a heterogeneous network, imposing link-disjointedness or node-disjointedness can prevent the user from utilizing otherwise usable links.
Furthermore, in a heterogeneous network, a link may have multiple metrics, such as hop count, physical distance, bandwidth, queuing delay, and communication cost. A load-balancing scheme based on consideration of only one metric cannot efficiently achieve an optimal result.
Hence, there is a need for a method and an apparatus for performing multi-path load balancing which accommodates multiple link metrics without imposing link or node disjointedness.
One embodiment of the present invention provides a system for facilitating multi-path load balancing at a local node in a network. During operation, the system measures a value for a metric on a local link which couples the local node to a neighboring node. In addition, the system receives from the neighboring node a neighbor path-metric value which indicates a value for the metric associated with all paths from the neighboring node to a destination node. The system then computes a "local path-metric value" for the metric associated with all paths from the local node to the destination node via the local link and the neighboring node. The system further computes a "packet-forwarding probability" corresponding to the destination node for each local link coupled to the local node, wherein the distribution of the packet-forwarding probability bears a nonlinear relation to the distribution of the local path-metric values for all the local links. The system subsequently forwards a packet destined for the destination node to one of the local links based on the computed packet-forwarding probability for that local link.
In one variation of this embodiment, computing the packet-forwarding probability involves computing a metric-specific path weight for paths that traverse a local link and lead to the destination node. The metric-specific path weight indicates the likelihood of the corresponding local link being chosen for forwarding packets to the destination node.
In a further variation, computing the metric-specific path weight involves computing a distribution of all the local path-metric values for the metric using the following formula:
In a further variation, if a local link has more than one metric, the pre-determined parameter Tj associated with metric j has a value of 1/N, wherein N denotes the total number of local links.
In a further variation, if a local link has more than one metric, computing the packet-forwarding probability involves computing a link weight for a local link as follows:
In a further variation, the system computes an average metric value associated with the destination node for a given metric and for all the paths which lead to the destination node and which traverse the local links, as follows: amj
In a further variation, the system communicates a rounded average metric value to a neighboring node.
In a further variation, the communication of the rounded average metric value to the neighboring node occurs when the current rounded average metric value differs from a corresponding previously communicated value.
In a further variation, forwarding the packet involves forwarding the packet to a local link i with a probability of wi.
The following description is presented to enable any person skilled in the art to make and use the invention, and is provided in the context of a particular application and its requirements. Various modifications to the disclosed embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be applied to other embodiments and applications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Thus, the present invention is not intended to be limited to the embodiments shown, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and features disclosed herein.
The data structures and procedures described in this detailed description are typically stored on a computer readable storage medium, which may be any device or medium that can store code and/or data for use by a computer system. This includes, but is not limited to, application specific integrated circuits (ASICs), field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), semiconductor memories, magnetic and optical storage devices such as disk drives, magnetic tape, CDs (compact discs) and DVDs (digital versatile discs or digital video discs).
Non-Disjoint Multi-Path Load Balancing
If the mean lifetime (mean time between failures, MTBF) of a link is l, then the mean time between path failures for a single path is l/6, or more generally, l/k, where k is the number of path hops. Furthermore, assuming that failure occurrence is a Poisson process, and that the failure rate of a link is λ=1/l, the probability of a link failure occurring during a time interval t can be computed as: F(t)=1−1 exp(−λt). If random variable Li denotes the mean lifetime of a link i, the failure probability of a path including k links in series is Fk s(t)=Prob [min{Li}≦t]=1−exp(−k�λt). The failure probability of k parallel single-link paths is Fk p(t)=Prob [max{Li}≦t]=(1−exp(−λt))k.
Hence, for a single path including six serial links, the end-to-end route failure probability is:
The mean time between failures of the route can be computed as:
Similarly, for the two parallel paths shown in
The mean time between failures of the route can be computed as:
Therefore, the mean lifetime of a multi-path route with two disjoint paths is 1.5 times the mean lifetime of a single path with six hops.
The end-to-end route failure probability can be computed based on the reduction process described above. Assuming that the failure rate of a single link is λ, the end-to-end failure probability F(t) can be computed as:
The mean time between failures of the route can be computed as:
The mean lifetime of a multi-path route with four non-disjoint paths, as is shown in
Nonlinear Distribution of Metric-Specific Link Weights
Embodiments of the present invention provide a mechanism for a node with N links (and hence N neighboring nodes) to determine how to forward a packet, wherein each link can have a number of metrics. During operation, a node computes packet-forwarding probabilities for each outgoing link for packets with the same destination, and forwards a packet based on these computed probabilities. One embodiment of the present invention computes the packet-forwarding probabilities based on the weights assigned to different metrics.
Suppose, first, that each link has only one metric, such as link quality, and that a node has three successor neighbors for forwarding a packet to a destination node with link qualities {0.9, 0.8, 0.4}, respectively. The node can compute the packet-forwarding probabilities proportionally to the link qualities. For example, the corresponding packet-forwarding probabilities can be {43%, 38%, 19%}. Such a linear load-balancing scheme can be problematic, because forwarding 19% of the traffic to the link with the poorest quality is often undesirable.
According to embodiments of the present invention, a preferable approach to forwarding packets is to distribute the traffic nonlinearly to the links with regard to the link quality (or any given metric), so that good-quality links receive more traffic, and poor-quality links receive less, in comparison with the linear distribution. For example, a system can compute a weight, bij, given to an outgoing link j based on a nonlinear distribution of a metric j among all the links, as follows:
wherein i is the outgoing link index; j is the metric index, which in this case is fixed because there is only one metric; N is the total number of outgoing links; xij is the value for metric j on outgoing link i, and Tj is a pre-determined parameter associated with metric j. Parameter T controls the spread of the distribution.
Multi-Path Routing with Multiple Metrics
One embodiment of the present invention facilitates a multi-path routing scheme based on multiple link metrics. The system uses distance vector routing as the underlying routing mechanism. In conventional distance vector routing, each node maintains a table that indicates the best known metric value (e.g., the shortest distance or the minimum hop count) to each destination, and which outgoing link to use to reach the destination. Each node exchanges information with the neighbors to update these tables. Each node is also expected to measure and know the local metric of each outgoing link to the neighboring nodes. Based on the tables received from the neighbors, and by computing the total metric value to the destination, a node can determine which link provides the best metric-value path to the destination.
Conventional distance vector routing does not directly apply to multi-path routing with multiple metrics. Embodiments of the present invention provide a system that performs multi-path routing while accommodating multiple metrics. In one embodiment, a node computes the packet-forwarding probability for each outgoing link for packets with the same destination based on the metric information reported by the neighbors.
Assume that a node has N outgoing links which lead to N neighbors, and each link has M metrics. Further, let rmij denote the neighbor path-metric value, which is aggregate value of metric j for all the paths to a given destination via link i, as reported by neighboring node i; and let lmij denote the locally measured value of metric j for link i. The node then computes a local path-metric value, pmij, which is the aggregate value of metric j associated with all paths from the local node to the destination via link i and neighbor i, as follows:
pm ij ←f j(lm ij ,rm ij).
fj(�) is a metric-specific combination function for metric j. For example, if metric j is hop count or distance, fj(�) is an addition function.
Next, the node computes a metric-specific normalized path weight, pwij, which is the weight given to all the paths traversing an outgoing link i with regard to metric j, based on a nonlinear distribution of the local path-metric values, as follows:
In one embodiment, the system assigns weights, denoted as Qj, to different metrics, wherein ΣjQj=1. A metric's weight Qj indicates the importance of this metric in the computation of packet-forwarding probabilities. The node can then compute the final link weight wi, which indicates the likelihood of a link i being selected for forwarding a packet for the given destination, as follows:
wherein M is the total number of metrics. Furthermore, because ΣjQj=1 and Σipwij=1, therefore, Σiwi=1. As a result, link weight wi can be used directly as the packet-forwarding probability.
In one embodiment of the present invention, the node forwards a packet destined to the destination to an outgoing link i with a probability wi. For example, the node can generate a random number rε(0, 1) and scans the cumulative density function of wi to find the first link i whose weight wi is less than or equal to r.
In another embodiment, the node can create a vector with a number of elements. Each element indicates an outgoing link, and the number of elements corresponding to each outgoing link is allocated based on the link weight wi. For instance, the node can populate a vector with 100 elements, each element's value being an outgoing link's index. Suppose that there are three outgoing links, labeled as {1, 2, 3 }, respectively, and that the corresponding link weights are {20%, 30%, 50%}. The node can then populate the vector with 20 "1"s, 30 "2"s, and 50 "3"s, in a random order. When packets arrive, the node fetches one vector element at a time in a round-robin fashion, and forwards each packet based on the value of a vector element.
Note that the link-weight computation process described above is for one destination only. To obtain a complete set of routing information for every possible destination, a node ideally performs the aforementioned process for every other node in the network.
Advertising Path-Metric Values
For the routing method described above to function properly, a node also advertises the path-metric values for each metric and each destination to the neighbors. In one embodiment, the node computes an average metric value amj as follows:
The node can advertise amj for all the metrics to the neighbors. For a neighboring node on the receiving end, amj corresponds to rmij, wherein i indicates the link on which the advertised amj is received. After the initial advertisement of amj for all the metrics, the node can update the advertisement when the value of one or more amj changes.
In another embodiment, instead of amj, the node can advertise a rounded average metric value ramj:
ram j←Round(am j , sig j);
wherein significance sigj denotes the range in which the value of amj can change without changing the value of ramj. Advertising a rounded average metric value helps the network converge more quickly and remain stable.
Next, the system computes metric-specific path weights and link weights (step 408), and stores the route distribution (step 410). In addition, the system calculates an average path-metric values for the destination node (step 412), and rounds off the average path-metric value (step 414). The system then determines whether the rounded average path-metric value has been previously reported to the neighbors (step 414). If not, the system reports the rounded average path-metric value to the neighbors (step 418). Otherwise, the system determines whether the current rounded average path-metric value differs from the previously reported value (step 416), and, if so, the system reports the rounded average path-metric value to the neighbors (step 418).
If the current rounded average path-metric value is not different from the previously reported value, the system further determines whether a neighbor has reported any path-metric values (step 420). If so, the system receives the reported value (step 404). If no updates have been received from the neighbors, the system can exit if an exit command has been received (step 422), or otherwise continues to measure the metric values of the link coupling to the neighboring node (step 403).

They are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the present invention to the forms disclosed. Accordingly, many modifications and variations will be apparent to practitioners skilled in the art.

Joslin Diabetes Center is teaming up with Johnson & Johnson Innovation and its affiliate Janssen Research & Development with the aim of identifing and advancing early-stage, novel therapeutic projects for potential for commercialization and product development. Their first project: identifying exercise-related drug targets for developing new diabetes treatments.
This alliance is based on studies by Joslin researchers showing that exercise can train multiple tissues in the body that in turn stimulate metabolic improvements in other tissues. Earlier this year at the American Diabetes Association's Scientific Sessions, Laurie Goodyear, Ph.D., co-head of the Integrative Physiology and Metabolism Section at Joslin and senior investigator on this research, reported that, while the concept of tissue-to-tissue communication is not new, "more recently we have realized that 'trained' tissues may communicate to beneficially affect other tissues....Our efforts now are to derive specific factors that help this effect and explore the development into potential therapies for diabetes."
"Joslin is uniquely positioned to translate findings in the laboratory into new approaches for treatment of diabetes, and our alliance with Johnson & Johnson Innovation and Janssen Research & Development is an excellent example of how we can move our early discoveries to the clinic with our complementary capabilities," said Nandan Padukone, Ph.D., vp of commercialization and ventures at Joslin, in a statement.

I'm currently reading a lot about transactions in InnoDB, at this time i only ever used myISAM tables so i'm not very used to all this:
Here is my table scheme :
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `reservations` (
`id_reservation` mediumint(8) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`id_room` mediumint(8) unsigned NOT NULL,
`date_from` date NOT NULL,
`date_to` date NOT NULL,
`cancelled` enum('Y','N') NOT NULL DEFAULT 'N',
PRIMARY KEY (`id_reservation`),
KEY `id_room` (`id_appartement`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB;
Now let's say i want to INSERT a new reservation for room ID 15, from 2012-02-15 to 2012-02-24, here's what I think i should do based on what i read :
start transaction :
INSERT the row
INSERT INTO reservations SET id_room = 15, date_from = '2012-02-15', date_to='2012-02-24', cancelled='N';
check if there is a reservation conflicting with the reservation i just made
SELECT * FROM reservations WHERE id_room = 15 AND cancelled = 'N' AND date_from < '2012-02-24' AND date_to > '2012-02-15' AND id_reservation <> LAST_INSERT_ID();
if not,
Problem is, in default isolation mode (REPEATABLE-READ), once i start the transaction, i won't see any other INSERT made outside this very transaction. So what would happen if, just after step 1), another user inserts a conflicting reservation ?
Maybe i should use READ-COMMITED in this case? but wouldn't this lead to issues as well ? Thanks for helping !

where I come from, it's very bad taste to open your gifts (birthdays, weddings, etc) in front of the guests, but I've seen that it's very common here. Should I do it during my shower or is it a big no no?
Open or not to open my baby shower's gifts?
Posted 09/22/2013
Back home (southern states) every baby shower I had been to including my own, it was normal procedure to open gifts in front of everyone so they all could see. There is usually a person close to you appointed to making a list of the gifts you open and who gave them to make it easier to write thank you cards later on.
Now I live more north. Waaay up north. I went to a baby shower earlier this year and I was shocked because gifts were never opened. It was a dual baby shower so I thought maybe that had something to do with it but maybe its a regional thing? I was looking forward to the gifts the most lol.
Posted 09/24/2013
Where are you from? I've never heard of that or been to a shower where the mommy to be didn't open gifts... I would imagine the guests would be pretty offended/insulted/disappointed...
Posted 09/24/2013
I'm definitely going to make sure that whoever is helping me w/ the gifts hangs onto the receipts! So far I haven't been too thrilled w/ the few I have received so its either back to the store or eBay.. Sounds terrible but I'm very particular and wish that as a FTM people would just buy off my registries (which I have put a lot of thought & research into) or give a gift card instead of the cheapest deals they could find.. Hopefully opening gifts at my showers go well and I don't have to do too much pretending lol ;)

She also had Bs and As on science and social studies.
I'm wondering if anyone else's child favors math over literacy at this age. According to her teacher, most Kindy kids to better with literacy than math.
"This is my family. I found it, all on my own. It's little, and broken, but still good. Yeah, still good. ~Stitch
DD LOVES literacy. She writes from morning until nighttime. You name it: stories, letters, post-it notes, anything.
She does not enjoy math, even though she is very good at it. She doesn't have the confidence in math that she has with Language Arts. With literacy, she just knows the answers. With math there is a little bit of thinking involved. She thinks that the answer should just come to her magically.
LOL Irishmum. Don't forget lunch! I hear more about lunch then anything else.
But, to answer the OP question, as far as enjoyment...my DS would much rather do his math homework then his reading. He loves science too. However, he is advanced equally in both math and reading. They don't do testing in kinder for GT, but his teacher recommends he is tested in first grade. She feels he would be a good candidate for the excellerated learner program. Oh...and we dont' have grades either at this age. They just have something similar to what pp mentioned.
Joyfully married to DH
Mommy to DS #1 (June 2007), my sweet angel DS #2 (1/10/2011-6/16/2013), and our DD (Sept. 2014)
My DD is good at both but she does gravitate toward reading (although she likes math).
I have heard that boys tend to gravitate toward math and science (b/c they are seen as more manly - I mean how often do you see a grown man reading for pleasure?) and girls tend to gravitate toward toward reading and writing.
Well aren't you just a fun filled little lollipop tripled dipped in psycho!
My DD is about equal is both in both ability and preference, which is pretty weird all on it's on.
My 2nd grader was very much a math over reading child. In K and 1st grade she struggled with reading, but adored and excelled at math. Over the summer she overcame some hurdle she had in reading, and now is a voracious reader. Now instead of being at the low end of grade acceptable she is in the high of the class reading on a level at least a full grade above, but her math has slipped to where she is average.
I think we'll see that alot, the back and forth.
Mama to 4 girls!
We're weird, we know it, we embrace our weirdness and enjoy life!
Sarah DSD (19), ODD (6), and YDD 2/15/14
Co-GO of Class of 2026.
My son's school doesn't give grades for K, but as far as what he seems excited about when he gets home is science and reading and his specials. They actually just started a patterns unit for math and he seems to be enjoying that more than the last unit, I think he was just bored (last unit focused on counting).
He doesn't get as excited about art or cutting/pasting projects. He does ok with his journal time but is definitely not going to grow up to be an artist ;)
Rachel, mom to J. 02/2007 and K. 05/2009
I was just thinking about this the other day. Both of my sons prefer math at this age. The youngest is having a bit of a hard time learning to read. He memorizes the words and doesn't want to take the time to learn. I thought maybe they liked math more because it makes so much sense at this age. I have one cupcake and you give me another and I have two. But putting sounds together and remembering all the weird rules in our language is pretty difficult when you think about it.
I know many men who read for pleasure. My husband goes through books like crazy. I think I know more men than women who read. I've always attributed it to the fact that most women I know are like me and find it hard find enough time to actually sit down and get involved in a book!

Payrolls Drop as Economy Seems to Be at Standstill
By DAVID LEONHARDT
Published: October 5, 2002
The tentative economic recovery nearly came to a halt last month as payrolls shrank for the first time in five months, the Labor Department said yesterday.
The economy is growing too slowly to create jobs, but it does not appear to have lapsed into a new recession, economists said. Wages kept rising last month, the workweek grew longer and the unemployment rate — which is based on a different survey from the payrolls number — fell slightly, to 5.6 percent, its second consecutive drop.
"The best way to describe the recovery is anemic," said Ethan S. Harris, one of two chief economists at Lehman Brothers. "From the point of view of an average person, we're still in a recession. What the average person cares about is jobs."
Calling the data confusing even while being relieved it was not worse, investors and economists said the jobs report would make the Federal Reserve unlikely to cut its benchmark rate before the midterm elections. Analysts say there is now only about a 50 percent chance that the Fed will try to encourage fresh spending by cutting the rate when it meets Nov. 6, the day after the elections.
As the broadest measure of economic activity in September, the jobs report offered clear evidence that the economy was stumbling again, after seeming earlier this year to have left behind the recession that lasted most of 2001.
Most stocks fell yesterday, and the Dow Jones industrial average dropped 2.5 percent, to 7,528.40, its lowest close since November 1997.
Last month, the economy lost 43,000 jobs as companies seemed to become nervous about the possibility of a new recession. Many businesses are still saddled with too much capacity, consumer spending has slowed and a potential war in Iraq has made managers uncertain about oil prices and the broader economy.
The decline was the biggest since February, the end of the large post-Sept. 11 layoffs.
Manufacturers have accelerated cutbacks in the last two months, after showing signs of ending their two-year slump earlier in the summer. Temporary-help agencies, which are often seen as a leading indicator, all but stopped hiring last month after having added workers in the spring, the Labor Department said.
Economists generally put more stock in the payroll numbers because the survey that produces them covers 300,000 factories and offices and about 37 million of the nation's 131 million jobs.
The unemployment rate comes from a survey of 60,000 households, and its drop of 0.1 percent contradicted other recent signs of more layoffs, like a rise in jobless-benefit claims and a decline in help-wanted ads.
Labor Department officials emphasized yesterday that the decline in both payrolls and the unemployment rate were extremely small and could have resulted from "statistical noise." That suggests the labor market is stagnant.
The report could complicate the campaign strategies of both Democrats and Republicans. With a fall in the unemployment rate, the nation's best-known economic statistic, the economy is unlikely to overwhelm Iraq as a campaign issue, as many Democrats would like. At the same time, almost a month of disquieting economic news has made the recent optimism of top Bush administration officials appear more shaky.
Speaking at a Republican campaign rally in Boston yesterday, President Bush called the drop in the jobless rate good news. "But that's not good enough," Mr. Bush added. "There are still too many people who wonder whether or not they're going to be able to find employment."
In a sign of the labor market's weakness, the average spell of unemployment jumped about 11 days last month, to 17.8 weeks, the longest since 1994. Almost 1.6 million people still looking for work have been without a job for at least six months. Others have stopped looking for work and are not counted as unemployed by the government.
A mostly Democratic group of senators has introduced a bill to extend unemployment benefits so that they would last about as long as they did during the recession of the early 1990's. Many benefits are set to expire at the end of the year.
"The jobs aren't there right now," Senator Paul S. Sarbanes, Democrat of Maryland, said in an interview. Extending benefits would help unemployed people pay bills and would lift growth by pumping money into the economy, Mr. Sarbanes added.
Mr. Bush called on Congress yesterday to pass a terrorism-insurance bill that he said would encourage new construction and to make last year's tax cut permanent. Under current law, it would expire at the end of 2010.
For all of its softness, the labor market does not make the economy look as if it is on the verge of a sharp new downturn. The average workweek rose to 34.3 hours last month, from 34.1 hours, in a sign that many companies are increasing production, for example.
Despite the loss of more than 1.5 million jobs since early 2001, the job market also remains tight enough that companies are still giving raises, albeit smaller ones. Hourly wages have grown 3 percent over the last year, down from 3.8 percent at the start of this year and the smallest annual gain since 1996.

LULU beats #, raised guidance for year, gross margins UP... just imagine what kind of numbers the Company can post if the US Economy starts to improve !! Should be a great Conf Call.
was 31% last yearforecasting high single low teenso recap:31 now 20 going to 10
Nice try, guess you are new to the story.
Imagine how bad it will get if the economy weakens further. Same store sales growth of low teens, dropping further with a weakening economy. CAD will drop BELOW parity with USD. Instead of getting a 5-10% lift on YOY earnings comparison, LULU will get a 5-10% drag...Same store sales drops and multiple drops. No way this company maintains a 50TTM at next earnings...
techstrateg... phook you short. Premarket is red but your short azz will be burned.

Mississippi Fishing Report
Bass should be targeted around vegitation and grass along the shoreline and at depths of three to five feet with top water lures such as buzz baits, frogs and top water plugs early in the morning or late afternoon. Deeper points and small ditch runs may be holding fish as well, target these areas with spinner baits or diving plugs. Bass have been reluctant to move in to spawn. Water temperatures are still around the 65 degree mark which makes it difficult for big females to commit. Air temperatures are expected to be in the low to mid eighties for the next several days and the moon will be full on the 22nd. These conditions should help fish to move in shallow.
Crappie are being caught in shallow water around grass and lily pads in 2 and 3 ft of water with minnows and chartreuse/white and black/chartreuse jigs tipped with a nibble. Most fish being harvested are males and seem to be holding more to grass patches than aquatic vegitation with good numbers reported over the last couple of weeks. Some anglers are still catching fish out in the deeper parts of the lake as well, along the river channel and deep drops or ledges.
Bream can be targeted with crickets and worms at depths of 4 - 6 ft. Reports of fish this week were being caught at depths of 3 ft around grass beds using jigs. Tightlining on the bottom and fishing baits under a cork are popular methods for catching bream. Redear should be moving up and prepairing to spawn over the next coiuple of weeks.
No reports on catfish but fish can be targeted with trot lines, jugs and poles along flats adjacent to river, old lakes with standing timber and above 43 highway in old oxbow lakes off the main river channel. Any popular catfish bait should be effective. Special regulations apply to parts of Ross Barnett for trotlines, throw lines, set hooks, limblines, fffd's, jugs and yo-yos. Please check in advance before using these devices.

Cemetery work nears completion
NATCHEZ — Two years of meticulous labor on two separate projects will soon conclude with visible results at the Natchez National Cemetery.
Since the cemetery expanded across Cemetery Road in 2001 on what's called the western extension, a few issues have arisen that cemetery leadership thought could, and should, be corrected.
Earlier this week a final inspection was carried out on the new drainage system installed under the western extension. This inspection yielded a list of final details that must be addressed before the drainage project will be complete.
Anyone who passed by or through the cemetery in recent month was likely more aware of another project under way at the expansion.
Sheila Smith, program support assistant at the Natchez National Cemetery, said that crews are nearing completion of all of the sod at the expansion.
"We actually had two different types of sod over there," Smith said. "We had Bermuda and St. Augustine (grass). Now everything is St. Augustine."
Smith said St. Augustine grass is the variety that covers the entirety of the National Cemetery.
"Everything is consistent," Smith said.
Phillip Smyre, with Worrell Contracting in North Carolina that is doing the work, said that while the work is detail-driven, but worthwhile.
"It's rewarding to know that we can come in and maintain an area like this that has our nation's veterans buried in it," Smyre said.
Smyre and his co-workers have been on site for three weeks removing the old grass from the southern section of the western extension, leveling the ground and laying down the new sod.
Without major interrupts due to weather, Smyre said the project should be finished within just a few days.
Smith said that is a relief to be so close to the completion of the two projects which could impact the experiences of cemetery visitors.
"Anytime there is work done in the National Cemetery, it is an inconvenience to our customers," Smith said.
Smith said the work and beautification of the cemetery is for the benefit of those who come here to remember the ones they love.
"We're glad that is completed so that when our customers come out to visit their loved ones' graves, they can do that in a sense of knowing that the grounds are well-maintained," Smith said.
"We just want to get back to normal so that our customers will be satisfied with the job we are doing," Smith added.

Do you know what part you need?
Have you ever done a repair like this before?
Thank you for helping make our site better.
PartSelect Number PS2365957
This part works with the following brands: Whirlpool, Admiral, Estate, Inglis, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Roper, Maytag, Crosley, Jenn-Air, Hardwick, Magic Chef, Amana, Caloric & Glenwood.
We purchased our home this year. We were thinking we'd have to replace our JennAir counter-top cook stove. We priced some new stoves. The realization hit us that we'd be spending around $1,200 to $1,800 to replace this stove.After visiting Partselect.com, it became obvious, we could just as easily replace those items which were broken or damaged and we'd have in essence, a new counter-top stove.When the parts came in, I basically took everything out of the existing counter-top stove and replaced it. The top porcelain counter-top had 8 screws. I was able to remove those and then worked carefully to put the new one on.Now that we've got all the parts on/in, my wife is very happy and states that we should be good to go for another 10 years. That saved us quite a bit of money! Did I mention, I'm legally blind? And I was able to put all of these parts on, with little effort. I just had to be patient and remember where things went. I do a LOT of feeling around to find things. The way JennAir built their countertop stove, I was very fortunate.Thanks to Parts Select and JennAir, we are now up and fully operational!

I have a rails 3 app on DreamHost. Randomly I get an error like the following.
Started GET "/internal_error.html" for ...
ActionController::RoutingError (No route matches "/internal_error.html"):
I created a sample page. It just posts data and the controller just redirects it without processing the data. The error happens while redirecting.(randomly 1 out of 10 times)
I contacted DreamHost support and they said that it's not triggered by the server but the application. I think the application is too simple to cause errors. I suspect it's the passenger that causes the error.
Does anybody have any idea about this error?

Indian Teenager Caught in Space Caper
A teenager from India said he'd won a prestigious contest. He said he had the world's highest score in a test sponsored by the U.S. space agency. His state government rewarded him with half a million rupees, about 11,000 dollars. He was about to meet the prime minister, and that's when an Indian news service called NASA and found there is no such exam. The teenager's "victory certificate" misspelled the name of the former NASA administrator.

The Dodgers had a brief closed-door meeting to address the team's recent struggles, but the meeting seemed more energetic than negative. When the clubhouse reopened, there was more energy, and the team projected an optimistic air than a somber one.
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said that in the wake of Dee Gordon's positive test for performance-enhancing substances the team asked questions but found there is no avenue for protesting the results of a four-game series against the Marlins. Gordon, who had appealed a positive test, had a major impact in the Marlins' sweep at Dodger Stadium this week.

The @Pirates have a 60% chance of making it 5 straight with a win tonight over the @Reds: 53eig.ht/1Ww2WSD
Tigers ace Justin Verlander, who spoke out on Twitter earlier today in the wake of Dee Gordon's 80-game suspension for PED's, said he believes there is a general consensus among players that there should be more frequent testing and harsher penalties. "We want a clean game," he said. Also feels if a player has tested positive, they should not be allowed on the field potentially impacting the outcome of games.
The Cubs' run differential at +79 after 22 games. Only six teams had a run differential that high (or beyond) for the entire 2015 season.

I've been fighting Idiopathic Peripheral Neuropathy for ten years now, I too have severe pain in both lower legs and feet. I also have lost all sensory feeling in both legs and feet. I have tried numerous medications for treatment of the pain. My current treatment does include 25 mg of Amatriptyline, twice daily. I've been using it in conjunction with Narcotic pain medicines. I started with Noratryptiline and the side effects were severe in my case. My doctor switched me to Amitryptaline and I find the results are a lot better. It does help me getting to sleep as well as helps numbing the pain somewhat. In the ten years I've been trying to beat this thing, I have come to one conclusion. So far, nothing alone or in combination will completely eradicate the pain, but it does help by making the pain bearable. It's still a day to day battle. Good luck with your treatment...
