Operations Management & Information Systems
Big data. Big Business.
Operations Management & Information Systems (OMIS) is an interdisciplinary department that considers how technology can facilitate business decisions to guide organizations to success. Our curriculum focuses on the intersection of areas like big data and business intelligence. It combines theory and strategy with hands-on experience.
As an undergraduate major in Management & Information Systems or Accounting & Information Systems, you'll have the chance to design applications in the lab and then put your learning to practice through credit bearing internships. Our Master's in Information Systems students all complete a capstone project, which involves creating and implementing software for a local company.
We've been there—members of our faculty have founded companies and worked in both engineering and management. And they are pushing the field forward with research in business intelligence, big data, data mining, software engineering, and computer security.
No other school teaches OMIS like we do. You'll be at the forefront of the discipline and have fantastic job prospects when you graduate.

Washington, DC – The 2015 government spending package, known as the 'cromnibus,' includes an increase of $25 million for the National Institute on Aging (NIA), with an expectation that much of the funding would support additional research into Alzheimer's and dementia.
Washington, DC – Seasons of Caring: Meditations for Alzheimer's and Dementia Caregivers (available from CreateSpace) is a book for anyone who loves and cares for someone with Alzheimer's or dementia. Seasons of Caring contains more than 140 original meditations from faith leaders and care specialists representing a wide and diverse range of major religious traditions, including Baptist, Buddhist, Catholic, Jewish, Lutheran, Methodist, Muslim, Presbyterian, Sikh and Unitarian Universalist among others.
Lausanne, Switzerland – There is currently no cure for Alzheimer's disease and other dementias. The main barriers to the development of effective treatments for Alzheimer's disease are an incomplete understanding of the disease, fragmented resources, and challenges with the design and implementation of clinical trials. Experts gathered at a two day meeting in Lausanne to discuss future steps to address dwindling product pipelines and to increase the productivity of drug development processes.
Washington, DC – On November 14, 2014, a star cast will take the stage for a special ensemble reading of Act 1 of Surviving Grace, an original play by comedy writer Trish Vradenburg ("Designing Women," "Family Ties," "Kate and Allie"), co-founder of USAgainstAlzheimer's, a national advocacy organization committed to stopping Alzheimer's by 2020.
Washington, DC— A pioneering online health study to assess the cognitive toll of Alzheimer's and dementias caregiving using online brain performance tests was officially announced today at a ReACT/AARP event. Employers from more than 75 corporations, academic institutions, non-profits and government attended the event, which was held at AARP's Washington, DC headquarters.

Martin also called the decision fiscally responsible. It was cheaper than going to a K-4/5-8 configuration, and their recommendation on how to accomplish the move -- to close Liverpool Elementary and turn it into a middle school annex to accommodate more middle schoolers at Liverpool Middle -- would be cheaper than building an addition onto LMS. This option would also keep the existing boundaries determining where the district's children will attend middle school the same.
Under the recommendation, sixth graders would attend Liverpool Elementary, which would by then be a middle school annex to LMS. Seventh and eighth graders would remain at LMS. Meanwhile, Soule Road and Chestnut Hill middle schools can already accommodate sixth graders, so they would welcome them as well as seventh and eighth graders.
Martin presented suggestions for the use of the remaining space at LE: it could become a district-wide science or art center, or it could house the LEEP (Liverpool Early Education Program, a pre-K program for district residents) program. It could also be used for community events in the village.
The rebuttal
When the time came for public comment, no one stood up to support the recommendation.
The charge was lead by former board member Terri Cook, who sent two children through LE. She presented numerous reasons why the district should keep LE open, including the large population of walkers, the high poverty rate and the low teacher-to-student ratio. She promised to submit all data she had collected to the board.
Cook also pointed out that no one wanted to see any schools close. "We don't want you to take LE off the table and replace it with another school," she said. "We don't think any elementary school should be closed."
She also read aloud the district's mission statement: "The Liverpool Central School District will be a leader in public education by providing the best opportunities for students to achieve academic and personal excellence." She noted that closing LE would be a direct violation of that mission.

Meaningful Methods For Assessing Investment Performance
Practical methods for evaluating investment performance, and how not to be automatically disappointed when you see a negative price change by tempering expectations and being disappointed about the right things.
The Consequence Of Misinformation In Assessing Investment Performance
Misinformation in assessing investment performance leads to poor investment decisions, and losses in investing over many years. The reason behind the problem are bad habits formed by years of brainwashing & the wrong mindset. There are two crucial factors in investing related to evaluating investment performance. This post empowers investors with the knowledge needed to overcome the misinformation.
Why Year End Investment Results Don't Matter
Conventional wisdom says that investors should review their portfolio's annual performance (returns). I discuss why conventional portfolio and investment evaluation metrics are not meaningful or relevant, and why investors should not rely or pay too much attention to them.
Don't Get Hung Up On The Financial Jargon, Filtering Out The Noise
For many investors, the jargon used in reports & earnings calls is largely foreign, Yet, the desire to learn it can leave you overwhelmed and confused. Fortunately, with most investments it all really boils down to focusing on a few key issues out of the vast amount of information!
Myth: It Is Easier To Make Money With More Money
This is a short follow up post to the previously talked about investment myth that "you need a lot of money to invest". Lets recap some of what we learned from the previous myth: Its a myth propagated by those who usually don't actively invest on their own. Money is just the physical resource that you would use when investing. Knowledge is the real key which allows you to grow a small sum of money into a larger one....
P2: Advantages Of Function-Centric Investing
In Part 2, I continue discussing a few more advantages & benefits of function-centric investing. [Approximate Reading Time = 15 minutes]. In addition to the advantages discussed in Part 1, function-centric investing allows for the inclusion of new asset types & categories. You can be diversified into many areas, or concentrated in a narrow range of investments. It also ensures each investment decision made is not arbitrary,...

Hello, my name is Chris Hartpence, and I am writing today to give my impressions of the Group Tinychat plugin for wordpress.
Dat nguyen van (john) provides excellent customer service, the plugin is intuitive and easy to install, and it works BEAUTIFULLY! This is exactly the solution I needed for my site, and you'd be crazy not to pick up the Pro version at the price he's offering it.
I for one, cannot WAIT to see what other plugins he develops, and based on how good this one is, I'll be among the first in line to buy his other creations.
(note to readers: the one thing to remember...group names can't have spaces in them! Replace spaces with dashes and you are golden!)
Awesome plugin. Five out of five stars. If I could rank it six stars out of five, I would. It's that good.

Philip Wilson's take on the Colts home victory breaks down the things you missed, if any. A lot of really solid points here, especially on CB Cassius Vaughn, filling in for Davis; if he's asked to step in again this week, I doubt anyone will be nearly as worried as they were last week. The Colts are developing their defense incredibly well ... it took them about a decade to realize the Tampa 2 isn't really that good any more, a basis for their defensive struggles since 2008.My favorite part of Wilson's article: The Colts had the ball 35 minutes, 16 seconds compared to the Packers' 24:44 ... it's impressive, also, that the Colts went hurry-up offense earlier in this game, not huddling and trying to prevent defensive substitutions. Luck has run the hurry up well. Despite this approach, which can backfire by giving the ball back to the other team too quickly, the Colts still dominated TOP. At this point, if that's what breaks the Colts out of their defensive woes, so be it.Oh! And by t...

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 PS304961
This kit is used on the water/ice dispenser door. This part allows water/ice to be dispensed on demand.
This part works with the following brands: GE, Hotpoint & Kenmore.
This part fixes the following symptoms:
Unplug the refrigeratorFront cover of ice dispenser snaps off. Remove the 4 screws from the ice chute. Unplug the control module that opens the ice chute. Leave hanging while removing the 4 screws that hold the solenoid in place.(one is a ground wire...note location before taking apart). Unplug the two wires to the solenoid.To install the new solenoid put the plunger in place and at the same time hook on the trip arm of the clapper door of the ice chute. Plug in the two wires to the new solenoidReplace the 4 screws.Plug in the Control modules and screw back in placePlug in the refrigerator. Do a trial test.Replace the cover
Help other customers find the most helpful instructions.
Were these instructions helpful?
First I removed the face plate by lightly prying . Once removed noticed 4 screws. Removing the screws allows you to gain access to the two plugs, one for the solenoid and the other for the switch that energizes the solenoid . Unplug the connectors and carefully lower the piece enough to reach the 3 screws that hold the solenoid in place. The 4th screw in the center at the bottom of the solenoid is the ground wire. If it is rusted like mine was just re-attatch it to one of the solenoids holding screw. It must be grounded!Just re-assemble, just dont forget to replug the connectors. Also a little hint, If you open the freezer door a little you wont trigger the solenoid.
1. Unplug refrigerator or flip breaker to kill power to the refrigerator.2. With hands, gently pull the bottom lip of the 3" X 11" face plate panel above the dispenser head. 3. Remove the 4 screws that are under the removed panel. 4. Tip the assemby down to reveal 2 plugs.5. Gently pull the 2 plugs to disconnect.6. Open the assembly to reveal the solenoid.7. There are 3 screws at the base of the solenoid. The center screw attaches to the green ground wire. 8. Remove the three screws.9. Observe: The bracket at the top of the solenoid unit tucks behind a 4th screw above the solenoid. You may need to loosen this screw to relesae the solenoid. 10.Unplug the yellow and red connector to the solenoid. It should not be totally free to remove.11. Put the plunger into the solenoid. Note that the plunger has an opening to insert the white plastic trigger for the trap door. Make sure the trigger is inserted into this opening before reassembling.12. Plug the yellow and red connector into the new solenoid.13. Position the new solenoid to match the screw holes. The bracket at the top of the solenoid tucks under the 4th screw. Tighten as necessary.14. Insert the green ground wire into the middle screw hole at the base of the solenoid and tighten.15. Insert the two screws to either side of the ground wire and tighten.16. Gently reconnect the two plugs.17. Tip the assembly back into place making sure the trap door and hoses are lined up correctly. 18. Replace the 4 screws.19. Snap the face plate back into place.20. Turn on the power and give it a try!I used other instructions provided by customers on the website. They were very useful. This is the second time we replaced this unit. The first replacement failed within the one-year warranty period. I called customer service and they had a replacement part and refund for the previous part on its way immediately. Excellent service!
I replaced the control board and the solenoid. This was very simple and easy to do. Make sure the power is disconneted before starting. I then removed the accuator pad and holder. Removed the face plate by simply pulling on it. I then removed the four screws holding the control board unit. I unplugged the unite by pulling the block connector on the left side. I then marked on paper the connections to the solenoid and unplugged it. I removed the three screws holding the solenoid the removed it. When installing the new solenoid make certain the rod to the dispenser is put into the solenoid plunger. Then replace the three screws and plug the wires back in using the connections written down on paper. I then removed the two philips screws on the control unit hold down bracket in order to remove the controll board. After removing the screws and the hold down bracket, I pulled the old board out and put the new one in. I then reinstalled the unit, faceplate, and accuator pad. I then turned the power back on and tested it. Worked like new, saving a lot of money...
Unplugged the refrigerator. Removed the panel to the ice/water dispenser. Removed the cover that displays ice type/water and light. Removed the 4 screws holding the cover. Unplugged the wiring harness to the cover which allowed easy access to the two electrical connections to the solenoid.Removed the three bottem screws holding the solenoid in place. Loosened the top screw ( do not remove completely) and the solenoid slide down. Removed the solenoid arm that hangs on door latch. Install hang solenoid arm on door latch; slide solenoid up under top screw. Install bottom 3 screws to hold solenoid in place then tighten top screw. Reattach electrical lines to solenoid then plug wiring harness back into cover. Install 4 screws holding panel in place. Re-install two remaining covers.

I really need some advice. Im Mexican my boyfriends is Muslim he is Kurdish. Im also pregnant by him and his family just found out and they are making him pick between them or me and our son. I dont know what to do i didnt want my son not to have a father. We broke up but he still comes to see me and im not due till November and seeing him just kills me i love him i would marry him and convert to his religion we already agreed that our son will also be Muslim but his parents dont want him to talk to us at all. I dont know what to do...
You both need to take responsibility for your actions. No matter if he is Muslim or not, not all men will take responsibility. Its a fact. Drop to your knees and pray to God for help. I dont know what you want anyone to say? People who engage in premarital sex knows what "can" happen.
You need to look for other help because clearly his parents dont want him around you. Unless he stands up to his parents it may not look good for you or your son. sadly, you cannot make anyone do anything.
Are You Muslim?
Living in Alabama.
No im not Muslim but im willing to convert i have nothing against becoming Muslim. Ever since we got together i have been asking questions about the religion and he tells me. I know at first he told his mother that i will convert and get married to him and she said ok but then his dad said no because Mexicans are not good. Im sorry but how can he judge us hes not god and in every race there is alway bad people but that doesnt give him the right to say im bad or a cheater if i have never done that. I love my boyfriend with all of my heart i just want whats best for us and our son.
I wanted to go talk to his parents and i want them to see im not a bad person and that really care and i would do anything they want me to do..
Also it seems like he is inbetween i know he loves me and his son and he loves his parents and he keeps telling me he needs me in his life but also cant lose his family.. He even cried to me the other day telling me he doesnt know what to do if i was gone he says that he loves me idk im so depressed and its bad for the baby i know.. i was in the hospital over night because i didnt feel well and the babys heart rate dropped from 135 to 88 it wasnt good at all.
salaam alaykoum.
it's hard. what your bf did was very much against islam. in islam, dating is not allowed and premarital sex is very very very taboo. i am sure your bf's parents are feeling a great deal of shame and embarrassment now, and they feel that they will be judged by their peers for what their ds has done. their request has been for their ds to deny you and the baby (which they feel would then just make the judgments from others disappear).
your bf has placed himself "between a rock and a hard place" by behaving in a haram (unlawful) way. he should have married you (which you don't have to convert to marry a muslim) and then had sexual relations with you. he could have also married you islamically, but not legally. he now has a child on the way in a haram manner and has his parents nagging him to leave you. has he given you any indication why he has chosen to just date you?
culturally, the stigma that comes with premarital sex and having a child out of wedlock may prove too strong. he may back out on you - as islamically he is to honor his mother 4 times over anyone else - even a pregnant girlfriend. if he does love you and end up staying with you - he will most likely lose his family because of his disgrace.
this is all very sad - because of the child involved especially. but this is unfortunately what comes too often from doing the haram and ignoring what should be done is islam.
and don't misunderstand me - i DO think it's very sad that his parents would disown him in ANY circumstance (can't imagine doing it to my own kids) but culture dies hard.
i wish you a lot of luck - but do be prepared to take care of your child on your own...
Pretty much what Meghan said. I was trying to think of a non-offensive way to say it.
I'm sorry, but his father sounds like a racist, which is no part of our religion. But still at this point it's gone beyond race issues, because now there is the issue that he violated important parts of our religion in his relationship with you, and his parents may always hold that over your heads even if the two of you do get married.
Hang in there. You may be raising a baby alone. Don't let this guy string you along. Either he is going to be with you or he isn't, but this whole thing of the two of you breaking up but he's still coming around is a joke. He's just going to break your heart over and over if you let it go on like that. Tell him to make up his mind. If he says he wants to get married, then set a date (sometime really soon) and make him stick to it. If he says it will make his parents too unhappy and he just can't be with you, then end it for good- dont take his phone calls, don't answer his emails, don't let him in your door.

This is why premarital sex is 'haram' because of the whole list of issues that can, and in your case HAVE, ensued. Marriage is a complicated affair and its never just a man and woman getting married, its FAMILIES becoming connected to each other. This is why its so important to know a man and his family well before committing to marriage and certainly before having sex. You might well love the man but conclude that since his family is a huge part of his life and will always be, that the relationship will not work. In your situation, the damage is done and the situation is what it is. My advice to you is this; forget about your boyfriendd for the time being. Research Islam for yourself and decide with completion if you are a true believer FOR YOU and then move forward based upon that. There is no reward in converting FOR HIM, whatever you do in your life needs to be FOR YOU for it to be real or long lasting. Now is the time to stop acting impulsively and to start using your head and your heart and to develop the relationship that will not fail and will last the test of time and that is between you and God, Allah wa subhana wa ta'ala. Nothing, absolutely nothing, can become right unless you start from the foundation up and fix YOURSELF first and know who you are and what you believe. We are here for you and welcome any questions you have and will support you. I too am due in November :). One step at a time dear. Dont stress, take this one step at a time.
in islam your baby doesnt belong to your boyfriend or his family and cant carry his name.he is a haram baby and that is as worse it can be.
this is why his family acts the way they do.
this asshole that call himself muslim is to blame nt you,since you dt know about islam.but u will suffer because of him and so will you little angel.my heart brakes thAT a baby has to go throgh this.
no one and i mean no one in his family will ever recognise that baby as their blood even if he merry u today.i wish the best to u.
if u make him choopse between them and u and he chooses u...he will loose his family.
islam is serriouse choise its nt smthg u do 4 your boyfriend.so reaserch good and learn how you will have to chage you life if u want to become muslim.
u seem either v young or really naive from the way u describing the situation.he took advantage of u and once u will understyand islam u will see this v clear.
for now just ignore him and have some respect for youself.he visit u and cry for u like this helps anyone.this is crap and only will give your baby health issues.since he didnt choose u and this baby its time he pay4 his choise,cut him out and concentrate on you lo.u could cause this baby lots of damage beeing unstable emotionally bc of him .
once again best of luck,im so sorry u go throgh this.
Been there! I have a daughter who's father is Pakistani. He instantly broke up with me citing the pregnancy as exclusively my fault. Told his mother and vanished from my life until our daughter was two weeks. His mother had no idea of his relationship with our daughter until she was 6 months old. The woman has rejected me as a human but has fully accepted the baby as her granddaughter and loves her accordingly. We NEVER thought that would happen and it did. We are still seperate and that hurts; Muslim or not, sometimes dudes are just not that into you!
My advice is not so much Muslim, but as a single parent- Take care of that baby and if he wants to stay, great; if he leaves, let him. Let him worry about his family. You worry about your little bundle.

First of all- I'm so sorry to hear you are going through a situation like this. It is difficult and what this boyfriend or whatever he is now did is very wrong and like PP's stated he is more to blame than you because he is the one that is Muslim and should have known better than to cause a situation like this in the first place. I have never been single and pregnant, but I am a single mom right now and I know that it's difficult. My situation is different from yours because I was married when I got pregnant and had my baby within marriage, but we have divorced since then. Because of that the whole "social" aspect of it is a bit different, but the fact still remains that for now at least I'm raising this baby alone. I know it's hard, but it's possible and honestly this child is the complete joy of my life.
Second, I want to also echo what some PP's said and ask you to please research into Islam for yourself. Islam is not something that you do for someone else. As a "western" convert/revert to Islam there are a lot of really difficult tests that you face. Many of us here have gone through a lot of that ourselves. How would your family feel about it if you were to become Muslim? I think that is one of the big issues that many of us face and it can be REALLY hard at times. Personally I have not faced rejection from my family (like a couple of my frineds have), but I've certainly not had any kind of acceptance. I've heard all kinds of things said about me and some of them really hurt. If you are going to be Muslim, you have to really believe in it for yourself because it's not always easy.
Third, (as some other PP said) I don't think you should stay with this guy. He seems very immature and seems that he has used you. If his family is as you say I don't think they are ever going to accept you even if you are Muslim and in this culture acceptance from the family is a really big deal (as in most cultures, but I think especially in this one). Also, if you do decide to become Muslim (which inshAllah/God willing you will) then I really do not think that this man would make the best Muslim husband for you as demonstrated by the way he has already behaved. He has not acted Islamically and he is not acting Islamically now. There are a lot of good and kind Muslim men who actually behave as Muslims. InshAllah, if you are to become Muslim you would find someone like this who can help you grow in Islam and help to teach your child about Islam. I don't think this man who you describe here is that one.
I know a lot of these things that have been written here (by me and others) are not so easy to hear. This is a hard situation and it's also a very sad situation because if this man who calls himself a Muslim had behaved according to Islam things would be very different right now. Please please learn about Islam for yourself. There is a lot of beauty in this religion, but you wouldn't always know that from the actions of some Muslims. Please don't let this treatment from this man and his family influence your views about Islam. I think several ladies here (including myself) have had crappy treatment from Muslim men, but it's important to be able to look beyond that and see that these actions don't necessarily reflect the religion. Please feel free to stick around this board and ask all the questions you want. There are plenty of ladies here with lots of knowledge and experiences who would be more than happy to answer your questions. Again, I am so sorry for the situation you are going through and please know you and your sweet baby are in my thoughts and prayers.

Day 6 -- and a guilt-free raw, whole foods dessert!
View HEALTHYNCGAL's Sparkpage
View All Blog Entries from HEALTHYNCGAL
Monday, May 20, 2013
So, in doing this juice fast, I've also had smoothies. I've also been doing a LOT of reading about whole foods, raw foods, etc. Today I found this recipe on YouTube, for a "Banana Whip" or a "Banana NICEcream" -- which is nothing more than frozen bananas and a little cinnamon.
I had a bunch of frozen bananas in my freezer, because when they get to be too old to eat, you can freeze them. I make banana bread out of them, but I saw this video and just had to try it. I was really hungry too, for dinner, so I figured I'd just make a banana whip. It is so good I honestly can't even describe it. It has the consistency of soft-serve ice cream, or a Wendy's frosty. It's just full of banana flavor and that touch of cinnamon is really nice! It would be perfectly fine without the cinnamon though, too. The best thing of all is that it is 100% raw, whole-foods, GUILT FREE EATING. You can eat as much as you want of this kind of thing without having to feel guilty. Because let's face it, you don't get fat eating "too many" fruits and veggies. That's just not possible. You get fat from too many refined sugars, refined carbs, animal products like dairy and meat, junk foods, etc. But if your diet consists of whole foods, natural, unprocessed REAL FOOD...the sky is the limit. And it's not even about having to stuff yourself silly. It's about not needing to or wanting to because healthy, whole, REAL FOOD actually satiates you, unlike fake food. It also gives your body what it needs so you don't crave the bad stuff. I get it now. It's all really hitting me the past couple of days. This isn't a juice fast for ten days. It's not losing weight until ___ and then I will ___. It's THIS IS MY NEW LIFESTYLE. FOREVER. This is the way it is from now on. I feel SO good, and I'm really ok with that!
I haven't had any Nyquil in 5 nights. I have energy to do what I want to do and more, I sleep better than I have in months, I have vivid dreams, my mood is pleasant and my mind is clear. I'm not foggy and tired and lethargic. I don't want to eat crap anymore. I don't want to sit. I want to eat healthy foods and get up and move this body. I feel like a totally different person than I was when I was writing my entries for a couple of weeks ago, where I felt really blah and despondent. I feel wonderful!

Transatlantic Rebuffs Buffett
TheStreet) -- Reinsurer Transatlantic Holdings (TRH) received once more a $52 per share bid from Berkshire Hathaway's (BRK.A) National Indemnity subsidiary, but the offer was quickly dismissed as not "fairly" valuing the company National Indemnity reinstated its earlier offer to acquire the company, a bid that has already been rejected by Transatlantic as too low relative to its estimated book value of $69 to $70. The renewed bid from Berkshire comes after Transatlantic's proposed merger with Allied World Assurance (AWH - Get Report) fell through last week.NEW YORK (
"The Transatlantic Board of Directors believes that selling Transatlantic for cash at the substantial discount to book value represented by the National Indemnity proposal simply would not deliver fair value to its stockholders," the company said in a statement Monday. "National Indemnity has neither increased its opportunistic $52 per share proposal nor shown interest in conducting full due diligence or holding discussions that could lead to a higher offer." Transatlantic and Allied World "mutually agreed" to call off their merger last week after it became clear that a majority of the shareholders of Transatlantic would vote against the deal. That left it open to bids from National Indemnity and rival firm, Validus (VR - Get Report), which has been attempting a hostile stock-and-cash takeover since July. Transatlantic Chairman Richard Press said Friday that the Berkshire company's $3.25 billion offer was "demonstrably inferior" on most valuation metrics and "less compelling" than the bid from Validus and the Allied World merger. National Indemnity has, however, given Transatlantic only till the end of the day to accept the terms of the agreement, after which the proposal would be permanently withdrawn. "I believe, and hope you agree, that this timeframe is reasonable given the substantial time period you and the Board have had to consider my earlier letter, even though for technical reasons you may not have been in a position at that time to be more forthcoming in responding to us," National Indemnity President Ajit Jain wrote in a letter to Transatlantic's CEO. Shares of Transatlantic were down 1.4% at $47.95 in early Monday trading. --Written by Shanthi Bharatwaj in New York >To contact the writer of this article, click here: Shanthi Bharatwaj.

This is the season of the year when most of the dwellers in large cities consider it advisable for reasons of health to spend at least some time in the country. Of course, the main reason for the flitting is vacation and rest rather than the desire for the country, but there is no doubt that most people consider that living in the country is much more healthful than city dwelling. There is a very curious commentary on this general impression in the special report on the statistics of mortality for the five years, 1900 to 1904, which has recently been issued by the census bureau of the United States Department of Commerce and Labor. The average yearly death rate during this period in cities of 8,000 or more population was 17.8 per thousand, while in the country it was 14.3 per thousand. This would seem a distinctly marked difference,

You might want to have one of those air motion sickness bags handy as you listen to this, ;).
coming soon to a craigslist near you for the low price of $14,000.
There are many people with more money than sense who are anxious to demonstrate it.
Christmas gift for thieves?
I think a super light weight non-racing bike may have a small market, but not at that price... Maybe at 1/10 of that price they would sell a few.
Wow. It's like a Bentley. Slower than the competition and excessive in every way, but still a work of art. I can appreciate the carbon fiber and leatherwork on it.
For that kind of money, I'd expect a Rohloff hub at the least. For a money-is-no-object commuter, I think this is a better bet:
A mere $5916 Canadian, and a belt drive option to boot!
You guys, its a Hermes...Hermes sells $12,000 handbags. You can ride a cheaper bike and you can carry your stuff around in a paper sack too. Their market isn't cyclist, its millionaires that think it'd be fun to ride down to the coffee shop on saturday mornings.
If the designers were German, they would be Deutsch bags.
I know. They sell ridiculous cameras too. Neiman marcus is selling an aston martin this year too and they sell women's clothing. Doesnt mean its not a gorgeous car or bike. But yes, that badge does add to the price.
Back to Hermes...yep, that name badge makes the price go way up. Luxury brands.
Kanye West sold plain white tshirts with no logos or anything for $120 a pop and they sold out within seconds.
Fools and money are soon parted...or whatever that saying was.
No thank you. not even for 1/2 price.
I saw Hermes himself up on eBay a few years back, he only sold for a little over 4 grand.
Just playing around; couldn't resist. The cyclist/not cyclist discussion has already been beaten to death elsewhere. :D

Motorcycle Accident Lawsuits, Settlements & Verdicts in Washington State
Motorcycle riders are more often exposed to situations with a high risk of serious injuries from an accident than other drivers are. Many motorcyclists who are involved in a motorcycle accident in Washington State suffer severe injuries, physical pain, emotional distress, and financial hardships. The injuries and medical bills that accident victims are often faced with are not to be taken lightly, as they can significantly affect a victim's long-term future.
A majority of traffic accidents, including motorcycle accidents, typically occur because of the negligence of one or more people involved. Motorcyclists are especially at-risk of being hurt in an accident because motorcycles are often overlooked by other drivers due to their size. Often times the injuries received in a motorcycle accident are serious, long-lasting and catastrophic because motorcycles do not provide riders with adequate protection from serious injury like an automobile does.
Hiring A Motorcycle Collision Lawyer
Not all motorcycle accident victims need the assistance of a lawyer, but it may be in your best interests to at least discuss your case with an attorney to evaluate your options. There are a variety of laws regarding motorcycle accidents, so if you are searching for an attorney, make sure the one you choose has experience with motorcycle accident cases. A qualified and experienced attorney will make sure no one, including the insurance company, takes advantage of your legal rights.
Davis Law Group, P.S. founder Chris Davis is one of the most respected and recognized civil litigation lawyers practicing in Washington State. Davis Law Group has been named Best Injury Law Firm in Washington State by AI Dispute Resolution Awards.
If you or a loved one has been seriously injured in a motorcycle accident in Washington State contact attorney Chris Davis and the team at Davis Law Group at 206-727-4000 to schedule your free legal consultation.

- The driver of the other vehicle involved in collision with the motorcycle did not see the motorcycle before the collision, or did not see the motorcycle until too late to avoid the collision.
- 54% of all reported fatal motorcycle crashes occurring nationally in 2008 involved multiple vehicle crashes and 46% occurred in single-vehicle crashes.
- Five crash types account for 86% of fatal motorcycle crashes: motorcycle exiting the roadway (41%), motorcycle or other vehicle runs traffic control (18%), head-on collision with another vehicle (11%), car turns in front of motorcycle (8%), and motorcycle goes down in roadway (7%).
- Forty-three percent of deaths in single-vehicle motorcycle crashes in 2008 included drivers with blood alcohol concentration at or above 0.08%.
- 91% of motorcycle deaths in 2008 were males. 64% of the females who died in a motorcycle crash were passengers. 99% of males who died were drivers.ws of Davis Law Group, P.S.

WHITEVILLE—On another rainy Friday night, when some high school football games were postponed, the Whiteville Wolfpack had no problem handling the Scorpions of North Brunswick in a 30-20 victory.
The game was the start of conference play in a stadium filled with tradition, dating back to World War II.
BOILING SPRING LAKES—When the West Brunswick Trojan and South Brunswick Cougar junior varsity football teams played Sept. 3, the Trojans held off a Cougar comeback for a 26-22 victory. That meeting seemed like a defensive struggle compared to what happened Sept. 24 in Boiling Spring Lakes. In a game that featured more than 600 yards of total offense, South scored early and often en route to a 45-27 victory.
West's top-five runners finished in the top six in winning a three-team boys' cross-country meet Sept. 23 at North Brunswick.
Roberto Valerio was first and Juan Gonzalez second in pacing West to a team score of 18 points—15 points are perfect finish.
North was second with 42 points and West Bladen third with 81 points.
West's Ronnie Dellinger was fourth, Jason Huff fifth and John Frink sixth, completing the team scoring.
Other West finishers: Bryan Murdaugh, ninth; Dylan Bernier, 12th; James Hall, 15th.
Getting continued good play from lower-seeded players, the South Brunswick girls tennis team routed Whiteville 9-0 Sept. 24 at South.
South improved to 5-0 in the conference, 7-0 overall.
The Cougars' No. 4-6 singles players lost four games in six sets.
At No. 4. Sarah Brock beat Allison Royal 6-0, 6-0. At No. 5, Hilary Walker beat Jacq Rapely 6-0, 6-0. At No. 6, Tiffany Capps beat Emily Maultsby 6-2, 6-2.
BOILING SPRING LAKES—Robert Jones scored four goals and Tyler Evans two as South Brunswick beat North Brunswick 6-3 in a Waccamaw Conference soccer game Sept. 23 at Jack Campbell Stadium.
Jones scored the first goal six minutes into the game off a corner kick from Tyler Fisher. Eight minutes later, another goal by Jones put South ahead 2-0.
North cut the lead to 2-1 when Eric Spafford scored on a penalty kick. But South took a 3-1 lead when Jones scored off a deflection.
What looked to be a promising finish in the Las Vegas 350 for Chad McCumbee and the SS Green Light team ended with a disappointing 16th-place finish.
McCumbee won $11,430 and has won $225,719 this season.
McCumbee was quick during the heat of the day in both of Saturday's practice sessions, running in the top 10. He qualified TheGPSstore.com No. 07 in the seventh position and things looked good for the SS Green Light team.
Brunswick County has several sites where people can recycle items recently banned from the state's landfills.
Effective Oct. 1, plastic bottles, oil filters and wooden pallets can no longer go to the state's solid waste landfills.
Brunswick County Operations Services Director Stephanie Lewis said plastic bottles could be recycled at the county's landfill, drop-off recycling centers or convenient sites throughout the county. The county landfill will accept used motor oil, antifreeze and oil filters to recycle for free only from residents.
BOLIVIA—Brunswick County Drug Treatment Court has received a grant to help fund its second year of operations.
Started in July 2008, drug treatment court has graduated three people from, and currently has, 25 people enrolled in the program.
The $86,666 grant is the primary source of funding for the court's operations. County commissioners also earmark funds for drug treatment court.
BOLIVIA—A new court is set to debut this month—this one targeting high-impact driving offenders.
District attorney Rex Gore said a Governor's Highway Safety grant has allowed the new court to take shape.
The Continuing Education and Workforce Development Department (CEWD) at Brunswick Community College offers short-term programs and classes for self-improvement, cultural enrichment, and academic achievement geared toward adults seeking skills for employment, intellectual stimulation, community involvement, and social interaction.
Many small business courses are free due to funding from a Small Business Center grant. Seniors, 65 and older, can also take many classes free of charge.

Super Bowl winner passes torch to current Thorpe winner
Malcolm Jenkins was defending Peyton Manning passes and tackling Indianapolis Colt receivers on Sunday night. Monday night, he was in Oklahoma City. The New Orleans defensive back made a whirlwind trip from Florida to Oklahoma to attend the Jim Thorpe Award banquet and present the honor to this year's winner, Eric Berry. A year ago, Jenkins won the award given to the best defensive back in college football, and he decided last year that he'd return to pass it on to this year's winner. "I planned on coming back," he said. "I didn't plan on going to the Super Bowl." But even when the Saints made it, the rookie didn't back out. He caught a noon flight out of Miami and arrived in Oklahoma City late Monday afternoon. "I'm going on like two hours of sleep right now," Jenkins said. He shrugged. "I don't have anything to do tomorrow." That's not entirely true. A victory parade is scheduled in New Orleans, and Jenkins, the second Thorpe winner in the past three seasons to win a Super Bowl as a rookie, will be there. "It's just an amazing thing," Jenkins said. "We celebrated and had fun, and now, I can't wait to get back to New Orleans. "Mardi Gras has already started."
