Energy efficiency is an important factor in an economy, since it helps meet energy needs, decrease costs, and lower environmental impacts. A review of the evolution of energy intensity in European and Former Soviet Union countries indicates a positive trend: high-energy-intensity countries have now reached the level of medium-energy-intensity economies 15 years earlier, and in the same period, medium-energy-intensity ones had similarly evolved to levels of low-energy-intensity. At the same time, the fast transitioning economies of Central Europe converged towards similar levels of energy intensities, in line with EU Directives, while successful EU-15 countries managed to maintain economic growth while keeping energy use flat. This report looks at how countries effect the transition from high- to medium- to low-energy-intensity, exploring whether leapfrogging is possible (it's not) and what policies can be particularly helpful. Some of the lessons include: energy prices tend to evolve from subsidized levels to full-cost-recovery to full-cost-recovery-plus environmental externalities; industrial energy efficiency is often the starting point, with privatization and competition driving companies to reduce production costs, including energy; successful countries excell at governance (setting targets, building institutional capacity, creating and improving the legal and regulatory framework, and monitoring and evaluating); households tended to be the last, and most difficult, area of reform, starting with pricing improvements, outreach campaigns, financing programs, and building certificates programs.

Balimaya Group
With the goal of increasing their business capital, the group members decided to join the microfinance institution Soro Yiriwaso and are now on their third solidarity loan.
Ms. Awa (the woman sitting at the far left in the photo) is famous for selling children's clothing of the best qualities. She intends to use this loan to purchase 80 outfits wholesale. She gets her supplies at the big market. Her sales are made to a customer base composed mostly of women.
With this loan, Ms. Awa plans on making an average monthly profit of 80,000 francs CFA that will be used for meeting the children's sundry needs. The rest will be used to invest in her work. She is counting a lot on the Soro Yiriwaso partnership to achieve her goals, which include expanding her business.
Madame Awa(Femme assise à l'extrême gauche sur la photo) a une grande réputation dans la vente des habits (enfants) de meilleures qualités. Elle compte utiliser ce prêt pour acheter 80 complets en gros. Elle s'approvisionne au grand marché.La revente s'effectue à Djalakorodji et au comptant à une clientèle composée majoritairement de femmes. Madame Awa compte réaliser avec ce prêt un bénéfice mensuel moyen de 80000 FCFA, qui sera utilisé pour satisfaire les petits besoins de ses enfants et investir le reste dans ses activités. Madame compte beaucoup sur le partenariat de Soro Yiriwaso pour l'atteinte de ses objectifs qui est l'élargissement de son activité.
Additional Information
Important InformationSoro Yiriwaso is a microfinance institution that works primarily in rural and semi-urban areas of Mali to provide underprivileged communities with access to financial services.The organization facilitates access for disadvantaged clients, particularly women, to new resources and services, fostering solidarity and cooperation among its clients. Kiva lenders' funds will enable Soro Yiriwaso to expand its outreach and target even more underserved Malians involved in business and agriculture.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

quote: I know you guys are more concerned with blaming the one side than fixing anything though.
quote: Americans vastly underestimate the degree of wealth inequality in America, and we believe that the distribution should be far more equitable than it actually is, according to a new study. Even demographic groups not usually associated with wealth redistribution such as Republicans -- desired a more equal distribution of wealth than the status quo.Americans thought the richest 20 percent of our society controlled about 59 percent of the wealth, while the real number is closer to 84 percent. They also believed the top 20 percent should own only 32 percent of the wealth. Without knowing which country they were picking, 92 percent of respondents said they'd rather live in a country with Sweden's wealth distribution.

National Journal Calls for Obama to Fire Himself and His Team
The National Journal is a well known left of center magazine.
And they are calling for a complete overhaul:
President Obama needs to fire himself. Not literally, of course, but practically: He needs to shake up his team so thoroughly that the new blood imposes change on how he manages the federal bureaucracy and leads.
A series of self-inflicted wounds during his fifth year in office, capped by the botched launch of the Affordable Care Act, have Americans questioning the president's competence and credibility. History suggests that second-term presidents rarely recover after their approval ratings fall as much as Obama's have this year.
History also suggests that there are two types of White House shake-ups. The first is mostly cosmetic and is aimed at sending a signal that the president is serious. He fires somebody, anybody, as a sacrificial lamb. The second is deep cleansing–that rare occasion when a president rebuilds his team to change himself.
The latter is what Obama must do.
Could be exactly what Obama needs to reinvent himself.
I know you might think there's no recovering from this debacle, but remember, just a few short weeks ago, Sen. Ted Cruz was destroying the Republican Party. People's attention spans are about 15 seconds long.

Payola Scandal Again Rocking, Roiling Radio; FCC Scrutiny Recalls '59 Charges
Byline: Chris Baker, THE WASHINGTON TIMES
The radio "pay-for-play" scandals of 1959 and 2005 have at least one thing in common: Both erupted at moments when broadcasters already were under scrutiny.
In 1959, the Federal Communications Commission was investigating the television networks over the quiz-show scandals, and religious leaders were bemoaning the rise of rock 'n' roll when a new brouhaha erupted: Famed disc jockey Alan Freed was fired for taking bribes to spin songs.
These days, the FCC is fining broadcasters for airing content it deems indecent, a crusade led by conservative groups that intensified after one of Janet Jackson's breasts was briefly exposed during a nationally televised Super Bowl halftime show.
And now payola is back - or back in the news, at least.
The FCC announced plans in August to investigate the uproar that recently forced music giant Sony BMG to pay $10 million to settle payola charges in New York.
"Just as the outcome of the payola scandal of 1959 was influenced by the quiz-show scandal and the outrage over rock 'n' roll, this latest incident will be influenced by the debate over indecency," said Christopher Sterling, a George Washington University professor who has studied payola extensively.
By many accounts, payola - a contraction of "pay" and Victrola record players - never went away after the 1959 scandal. Mr. Sterling and other historians say the practice is older than broadcasting itself.
In the late 19th century, before radio, sheet-music sales determined a song's popularity.
Tin Pan Alley - the term used to describe the music-publishing business at the time - strived to get songs played as often as possible to increase public demand for the tunes, including sending promoters out to dance halls to slip orchestra leaders cash bribes.
By the 1950s, payola was common in the radio business.
Larry Kane, who got his start in broadcasting as a radio reporter in the 1950s and later became a prominent local TV news anchor in Philadelphia, said he never witnessed cash exchanging hands at the stations he worked at, but he said the music labels worked hard to influence playlists.
"Stations were crawling with record promoters. They were everywhere. They invaded a station, and they always had gifts," Mr. Kane said.
Promoters try to persuade radio stations to play their clients' records. For years, record companies have run their own promotion departments, but they also have hired independent promoters.
A scene from "Ray," the 2004 film that chronicled the rise of Ray Charles, shows a music promoter handing a disc jockey a wad of cash in exchange for playing one of Mr. Charles' early recordings.
When Mr. Freed, who coined the term "rock 'n' roll," was charged with taking bribes and fired from WABC-AM in New York in 1959, it helped fuel the controversy raging over payola and the music Mr. Freed championed.
The fallout from Mr. Freed's firing ensnared some of the biggest musicians of the day, such as Bobby Darin, who denied paying for his music being featured on Mr. Freed's show.
Congress opened hearings on payola that featured a star-studded witness list, including Mr. Freed and Dick Clark, then a disc jockey in Philadelphia and the host of "American Bandstand."
During his testimony, Mr. Clark admitted having a financial interest in 27 percent of the records he played on "American Bandstand." The disclosure didn't hurt Mr. Clark, whose clean-cut image helped him escape the scandal virtually unscathed.
Rep. Oren Harris, an Arkansas Democrat who led the House investigation into payola, told Mr. Clark he was "a fine young man."
After the hearings, Congress passed a law that made payola a misdemeanor offense.
New forms of payola
Payola has resurfaced in the news sporadically over the years. …

UNITED NATIONS - Several thousand people - Egyptians, Egyptian Americans and other New Yorkers - showed up here Jan. 29 in solidarity with the pro-democracy movement in Egypt and to demand that the U.S. stop propping up Hosni Mubarak's dictatorship with billions of dollars in military aid.
Much like the protests threatening the Mubarak dictatorship, this demonstration was organized on the fly, via Facebook and other social networking sites. As images of the standoff poured out of Egypt, New Yorkers began posting "events" on Facebook, urging people to come out to rally in solidarity. As the organizers learned of each other, they coordinated the time and place of the demonstration.
"Come show your support for the brave Egyptians who are fighting tirelessly for their freedom, dignity, and rights," read one of the Facebook event pages. "Bring flags, banners, posters, and your voice."
An impressive display of homemade banners was on display, as well as Egyptian and American flags. A number of people, hoping that Egypt's potential revolution would go in the same direction as Tunisia's, waved Tunisian flags.
Unlike traditional demonstrations, which are organized weeks or even months in advance, the list of speakers was more informal, with various community members taking hold of the bullhorn.
A moment of silence was announced, in honor of those slain by Egyptian security forces. Still, it took a few minutes for the message from the soapbox to reach the entire crowd - chants of "Down with Mubarak" erupted every so often.
After one speaker told the crowd,"Getting rid of Mubarak doesn't mean giving Egypt to the Muslim Brotherhood," the crowd erupted in cheers.
"Stability doesn't have to mean dictatorship," said a different speaker. "The United States should have an ally in an Egyptian democracy - without Mubarak! And we won't accept replacing a dictator with another."
He was referring to Omar Suleiman, whom Mubarak had just appointed as Egypt's new vice president. Suleiman has a long history of working with the CIA, including with its notorious "secret rendition" program. According to a former U.S. ambassador to Egypt, Suleiman knew all about "some of the negative things that the Egyptians engaged in, of torture and so on. But he was not squeamish, by the way."
As of now, more events have been created by Facebook users, asking people to come to various demonstrations in solidarity with the people of Egypt. The same type of demonstrations have taken place across the country, including 2,000 people in Chicago.

text: hello to all, I was looking around and trying to figure out if anyone has tried an Iroquois or Huron variant on 6d mesh, rather than the standard 10d. I am thinking of giving it a try this Thanksgiving break as I will be kept from lacrosse by getting my wisdom teeth out (yes, pity me, no food on thanksgiving for me) I have an idea of how to do this, and a head to do it on (Easton stealth wood grain) so I think I will give it a try. I'm planning on having 6 heads strung for customers as well as myself during this break, along with posting some of my other work in a mega thread soon so be on the lookout for that. anyways, any thoughts, advice, or whatever would be appreciated.

This will be Amina's second Mothisha loan from Tujijenge Tanzania. A Motisha loan is a product offered by Tujijenge Tanzania that allows borrowers with good credit ratings to pay back their original loans faster and receive extra money before their original loan term has ended. Amina spent her previous loan on school fees, a loan which she has fully repaid. She now hopes for a loan to keep her business running and to put some money in the bank for use later on.
Amina, shown in the front row on the right, will share this loan with her loan group, Ari-Mypya, which totals nine members. The members of the group hold each other accountable for paying back the loans.
Additional Information
About Tujijenge TanzaniaThis loan is administered by Tujijenge Tanzania, which was founded in 2006. It has operations in Dar es Salaam, the coastal region, and the Lake Victoria region. The organization aims to reach out to micro entrepreneurs and provide them with financial and social intermediation services because capital is one of the major barriers to development and success for micro-enterprise initiatives in Tanzania.
For more information on Tujijenge Tanzania, please visit its partner page, or join its lending team.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

I got some beautiful ground ballscrew at my scrapyard today
But there are some spots of surface rust on it. Typically i would just sand it off, but I would like to preserve the surface shiny finish if at all possible. Can anybody give me some advice on how to remove the rust, without scratching the screw or anything?

I know I'm prone to exaggeration, but I'm being dead serious when I say I think this may be the worst thing that can happen to a human. When you are already at a boiling point and then you just slip and fall down. It can't get worse. Like if he stabbed somebody to death 3 seconds later I wouldn't hold him accountable for that crime. Nobody could control their temper in that situation. Nobody.
PS – Love the guys face at the end too. He's lucky he didn't get himself killed if the coach saw it.

If I did I would power down and unplug the connection that issued the protect warning. I'd connect up a speaker of the appropriate load for testing in my rack or where the Denon is and then power up and see if it came back.
Given the story my bet is a wire pair shorted out. Given the distances and how speakers can be a few ohms you might see the short on the Ohm meter but that would not tell you much else.
I have a home audio system throughout my house. It is set up in 2 zones. Zone 2 is the Upstairs, main floor, basement and outside which is set to the denon B speaker. zone 1 is the living room with 5.1 speaker set to Denon A speaker. Ever since I bought the Denon it frequently goes into protect mode. Usually after a few hours of running on zone 2 but during the last cut off my speaker selection dissapeared? The receiver turns on but I cannot select any speaker or even see an option to select a speaker group......suggestions?

CASPER, Wyo. (AP) — The owner of five Casper radio stations is the subject of a federal labor lawsuit over employee pay.
The Casper Star-Tribune reported this week that Mt. Rushmore Broadcasting was sued by the U.S. Department of Labor and accused of improperly paying some workers.
The lawsuit accuses Mt. Rushmore of paying employees less than federal minimum wage and not paying overtime. Six former employees are named in the suit.
The allegations date as far back as August 2008, according to the complaint. Federal authorities also accuse the company of failing to keep adequate records related to employee work hours.
Mt. Rushmore President Jan Charles Gray disputed the allegations. Gray told the newspaper that the allegations came from disgruntled former employees.
"The filing is bogus and unfortunate," Gray said in an emailed statement.
Labor Department attorney Beau Ellis did not respond Tuesday to a message seeking comment.
Mt. Rushmore Broadcasting is licensed to operate four FM stations in Casper: KMLD 94.5, KASS 106.9, KQLT 103.7 and KHOC 102.5. Mt. Rushmore also owns KVOC-AM 1230 in Casper, along with stations in Rawlins and in South Dakota.
The lawsuit, filed Monday in U.S. District Court for Wyoming, accuses the company of violating the Fair Labor Standards Act. It seeks unpaid wages and damages equal to the compensation owed to the workers, as well as an order preventing the company from further delaying payment of minimum wage and overtime.
The lawsuit does not indicate how much money they were allegedly shorted.
Gray maintains that even if the allegations were accurate, exemptions in the Fair Labor Standards Act prevent the rules from applying to his company.
"This is an unconstitutional action by the Department of Labor to target small business," he said.
The lawsuit is only the latest battle between Mt. Rushmore Broadcasting and the federal government.
In July, the Federal Communications Commission announced it was fining the company $68,000 for violations stemming from the use of unlicensed radio transmitter links.
The links send audio from a studio to an off-site transmitter, where it can be rebroadcast.
The FCC also issued a $21,500 fine in May after an inspection found Mt. Rushmore wasn't staffing its AM and FM stations in Hot Springs, S.D., and used an unauthorized antenna at the FM station.
The commission also fined the company in 2008, 2002 and 1998.

Everybody Has a Mother
Published: February 9, 2003
(Page 8 of 8)
''You never really know your children,'' el-Wafi wants me to understand. ''Certainly not. Any mother who thinks otherwise is kidding herself.'' She is talking about Zacarias now. ''I'm sorry, but he was 22 years old when he left my house, and he wasn't then what he became, whatever that is,'' she says. ''He was a grown man. I can't be responsible for what he does when he leaves home.''
El-Wafi says that her two daughters might have inherited a mental fragility from their father, but she won't go so far as to say that Zacarias might share the same family condition. After all, she points out, wouldn't anyone, even the strongest man, crack after all those months in solitary confinement, with the light shining 24 hours a day and no human contact? Nor, she insists, is there anything clinically paranoid about his belief that his lawyers were trying to kill him: aren't they employed by the United States government? And isn't the United States government, in fact, pressing for his execution?
Given their family history, it's particularly hard to separate out the real horrors from the imagined. Nadia now says that her father sexually abused her (el-Wafi wasn't aware of it), but for a long time she didn't know what to think, all too aware of her own tendency to confuse reality and imagination. Is that tragedy beyond the realm of the possible, given the tragedies she knows to be true? Is it so far-fetched for el-Wafi to believe that her phone is tapped? At least half the Moussaoui children seem neurochemically rigged to believe that their lives would be a series of enormous catastrophes waiting to unfold. So far, they haven't been proved wrong.
The conversation turns to the terrorists who just that morning were arrested in one of the big housing projects outside Paris, the makings of a powerful bomb in their apartment. The papers that day quote politicians making all-vague yet somehow all-knowing pronouncements about the possibility of an attack in France. El-Wafi can't understand why anyone would attack France, which hasn't hurt anybody. She herself has seen too much violence in her own life, she says, and her heart goes out to the suffering Chechens and Palestinians.
Nadia, ever touchy on the subject of Israel, jumps in with something of a non sequitur: ''And what would you say to Osama bin Laden, who has called for death to all Jews?''
El-Wafi looks hard at her daughter, and when she speaks, her voice is sure. ''Don't ask me questions like that,'' she says. ''I'm not Osama bin Laden's mother.''

I am using Sass on a CentOS 5.8 server and want it to keep running after SSH logout, so that other users can edit *.scss files for days or even weeks to come without any need to start the program each time they login (in fact, they don't even have SSH access).
I have used the following command from this question/answer:
$ nohup sass --watch path/to/scss/files:path/to/css/output/files &
Then, I log out of the SSH session and the process keeps running. It all works fine (logging in again and using touch to create a test file (test.scss) correctly triggers the creation of the corresponding test.css file) for the first few minutes, but after a while the *.scss files stop getting compiled... However,
$ ps aux | grep 'sass'
Shows that the process is still running.
Anybody knows what am I doing wrong?
EDIT: this is the output I'm getting from nohup.out:
/usr/local/rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p286/lib/ruby/1.9.1/yaml.rb:56:in `': It seems your ruby installation is missing psych (for YAML output).

Press Ctrl-C to stop. >>> New template detected: /home/*/sites/all/themes/test.scss overwrite private_html/sites/all/themes//test.css >>> Deleted template detected: /home/*/sites/all/themes/test.scss
The YAML-related error seems unrelated to the problem as Sass is working correctly for a short while. It just silently stops working at some point even though the process remains running...

Awareness Is Key to Avoid Lift Truck Accidents: Hyster Co. Conducted a Comprehensive Study of Accidents Involving Lift Trucks and Pedestrians. These Accidents Are among the Most Frequently Reported and Often Involve Serious or Fatal Injuries
Lyle, James, Occupational Hazards
What Hyster Co. learned about lift truck and pedestrian accidents can assist safety managers in deciding how to equip lift trucks for their particular needs, how to establish workplace rules for safe lift truck/pedestrian interaction and how to organize the physical workplace to reduce the potential for these accidents.
The study reinforced that lift trucks have good visibility, particularly to the rear. If an operator keeps a proper lookout in the direction of travel and maintains the lift truck under control, and if pedestrians are trained to maintain a proper lookout for their safety, there should be few, if any, lift truck/ pedestrian accidents.
The Hyster study included an evaluation of a substantial number of reported accidents, as well as a comprehensive search to identify articles and studies concerning a means to prevent accidents involving a lift truck and pedestrian. The company surveyed lift truck users to identify the usage of optional audible and visible warning devices, and contacted manufacturers of these devices concerning the effectiveness of their products. Hyster also conducted field evaluations of pedestrian warning devices.
Accident Data
Lift truck accident data is published periodically by various sources, including state and federal government organizations. However, specific factual information concerning individual accidents often is vague, and the contributing factors are difficult to identify.
Hyster's evaluation of its own accident reports indicates that approximately as many of these accidents occurred while the lift truck was traveling forward (including tail-swing accidents) as in reverse. Most reverse-travel accidents occurred within the first 10 feet of travel, whereas most forward-travel accidents occurred after the first 25 feet.
Many of the accidents involved injury to pedestrians who were not only aware of the presence of the lift truck, but who were, in fact, working with the operator of the truck that struck them. Some lift trucks involved in these accidents were equipped with audible and visible alarms, and others were equipped with alarms that were non-operational at the time of the accidents.
Accident Causes
The lack of detailed information concerning specific incidents makes it impossible to isolate a common or predominant cause of accidents involving a lift truck and a pedestrian. However, some contributing factors may include:
* Ambient noise or light levels
* Number of lift trucks and pedestrians present
* Lift truck operator's level of training
* Pedestrians' education concerning lift truck operating characteristics and how to work around them
* Physical workplace layout, including separate travel zones for pedestrians and lift trucks
* Presence of audible or visible warning devices on lift trucks and other mobile equipment
* Presence of audible or visible warning devices on cranes, conveyors or other stationary industrial equipment
Other contributing factors include lack of specific operating rules for lift truck travel, such as sounding the steering wheel horn at intersections or when changing directions, and a lack of enforcement by management of safe work procedures for lift truck operators and pedestrians.
OSHA regulations require specialized training and regular re-training for lift truck operators and remedial training for operators involved in accidents or near accidents. OSHA estimates that its current operator training requirements will prevent 11 deaths and 9,422 injuries per year.
Pedestrians should understand the operating characteristics of lift trucks when working in their proximity, and should understand and follow pedestrian rules established for their specific environment by their employers.
Another key issue is separation of lift truck and pedestrian traffic. …

Diversity is hardly a key driver in luring businesses to a state
A recent nonscientific survey suggests Oklahoma needs to improve its national reputation for diversity to attract businesses.
There's nothing wrong with promoting a live-and-let-live attitude where reasonable, but to argue that perceptions about diversity are more important than the general business climate — taxes, regulation, workforce, infrastructure — is off base.
The survey sprang from Risha Grant, head of a Tulsa public relations firm. Grant notably used the poll results to criticize State Question 759, which would outlaw affirmative-action programs in state government. So her survey may be mostly a slam on SQ 759 rather than a serious critique of an economic development problem.
Still, Grant's arguments should be addressed. We've noted before that other states have adopted affirmative-action bans, including some far more liberal than Oklahoma, without suffering a perception problem. Grant claims Oklahoma's image has been harmed by high-profile instances like state Rep. Sally Kern's comment that homosexuality was "the biggest threat our nation has, even more so than terrorism or Islam." Likewise, Commerce Secretary Dave Lopez says one firm had to be assured that one person's intolerant statement doesn't represent the entire state.
In a state with 3.7 million people, someone, somewhere will say something that others find objectionable. We're not fans of Kern's rhetoric, but we doubt that her views are derailing economic growth. If inflammatory language were a job killer, entertainers in California and New York would have single-handedly devastated those states' business climates.
Comedian Bill Maher routinely denigrates women with vulgarisms we can't print. Must California economic development officials assure business leaders that not all of their state is a hotbed of intolerance toward women? We doubt it. And Maher has a national TV show. Most people, including Oklahomans, couldn't pick Kern out of a lineup. If Maher's comments have no impact, there's no reason to credit Kern or other local individuals with greater national influence.
Furthermore, Oklahoma has a rich cultural history that few states can match. The state's leadership includes people from a wide range of backgrounds who achieved success based on merit, not diversity token-ism. The governor is a woman who faced another female in the election. State Rep. T.W. Shannon, R-Lawton, is poised to become the first black speaker of the Oklahoma House of Representatives. U.S. Rep. Tom Cole, R-Moore, is a member of the Chickasaw Tribe. State Sen. Al McAffrey, D-Oklahoma City, is gay. For what it's worth, he previously served alongside Kern in the House, without incident.
If diversity perceptions were a key driver of the economy, California would have low unemployment and strong growth. Instead, it's losing businesses hand over fist due to high taxes and burdensome regulations. Oklahoma has one of the lowest unemployment rates in the country. Quality-of-life issues clearly matter for employee recruitment, but to argue that those making relocation decisions give greater priority to a perception of "diversity" than concrete business considerations is absurd.
Ultimately, Oklahoma's future economic growth relies on entrepreneurs who focus first and foremost on making a profit. If a company executive isn't locked in on that goal, state officials shouldn't waste much time trying to convince that person to set up shop in Oklahoma. They're probably not going to be in business for long anyway.

Dark Breed (1996) Movie Review
The movie was pretty good, not too many movies have I watched that I didn't like, but what I LOVED MOST about this particular movie was the song that played all the way though it - "You're The One" - I have NO idea who sings it, I couldn't even find it in the credits, I suppose it was written exclusively for this movie, a crying shame, because it is TO DIE FOR! I would buy it in a heartbeat! Anyone who might have information you can share with me on this song would be greatly appreciated!

She currently has a business selling cattle and she makes it known that she started it on her own initiative several years ago.
The loan she'll take out now is to increase capital. She will buy cattle in communities adjacent to La Paz Department and then she'll sell it in her sales space. This way of working allows her to generate income to support her family since she's single and has a son. When asked what she likes about Pro Mujer, she answers that she likes the credit, the health area and the training sessions.
El crédito que sacaran beneficiara a pequeñas microempresarias donde la señora Rosa es integrante, ella indica que es la primera vez que integra Pro Mujer, ingresando por la invitación de sus amigas de grupo que son socias de la institución. En la actualidad ella tiene un negocio de venta de ganado; da a conocer que este negocio lo emprendió por iniciativa propia hace varios años.
El crédito que ahora sacará es para el aumento de capital (compra de ganado) que adquirirá de las comunidades aledañas del departamento de La Paz y posteriormente lo comercializará en su espacio de venta. Esta forma de trabajo le permite generar recursos para mantener a su familia ya que ella es soltera y tiene un hijo.
Cuando se le consulta qué le gusta de Pro Mujer, ella responde que le gusta el crédito, el área de salud y las capacitaciones.
Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Music composer in Ocala, Florida
Jerome added 7 photos
My first instrument was piano (still play keys in the studio).
I got my first bass (a cheap one, which I still own - never had a name on the headstock) when I was 17.
I learned playing bass by sitting on the side of my bed playing along with my television (commercials, etc). Back in 1977, I had no VCR so being unable to pause or rewind anything, I had to learn to catch things on the fly!
My influences have always been guitarists (Eddie Van Halen, David Gilmour, Alan Holdsworth, Yngwie Malmsteen and more).
Re: my influences, I guess my time as a keyboard player, playing bass with my left hand and chords with my right, I kind of carried that thinking (left hand supporting right hand) over to bass and guitar.
Although I started playing bass in 1977, I didn't actually start taking it seriously until somenone gave me a copy of Van Halen's first album.
Listening to Eddie's playing, which I had already been reading about for quite a while, made me take a close look at where I was as a bassist.
These days if I'm not gigging or in the studio, you can usually find me at an open jam somewhere.
Jam's are a great way to network with oher musicians and you never know who'll show up on stage.
One of the reasons I love attending open jams is I like being in situations where I don't know what to expect musically or who to expect it from!

Motorola faces a lawsuit against its Xoom tablet
Xooms into view
TABLET MAKER Motorola is facing a lawsuit over the use of the Xoom trademark.
Electronic money transfer outfit Xoom Corporation is asking for an injunction to prevent Motorola from using the word Xoom to market its tablet, claiming that infringes on its trademark. We found that the firm had been issuing press releases under the Xoom name since October 2002.
Motorola worked hard to build up interest in its Xoom tablet, making sure it was the only tablet at CES running Android 3.0 Honeycomb and that it was the featured device at Google's Android 3.0 unveiling earlier this month. Motorola also scattered Xoom tablets all over Mobile World Congress, allowing conference goers to play around with what is generally regarded as the first real competitor to Apple's Ipad.
Given that Motorola put so much work into building up hype around the Xoom, it seems surprising that it didn't think of working something out with Xoom Corporation. The firm owns the xoom.com domain name so it's not exactly hiding in the shadows, and while its unlikely that Motorola will have to reprint all its advertising due to a name change just yet, it could disrupt a major product launch for the company.
Clearly Xoom Corporation has been using the Xoom mark for many years prior to Motorola's choice of the name for it tablet. The question for the court, if the dispute goes that far, will be whether Motorola's Xoom tablet is liable to cause confusion with what Xoom Corporation does.
On the face of it, Motorola's Xoom is a tablet and Xoom Corporation is a money transfer service, and perhaps not one that is particularly well known at that. So common sense might say this is just another nuisance lawsuit. However, as is best practice in these matters, Xoom Corporation has hooked up with what looks to be a pretty big and expensive law firm to take on Motorola, so it looks like it means business.
The question is whether Motorola can get away by just paying off Xoom or whether the relatively small outfit wants to slug it out against one of the biggest names in the mobile hardware business to protect what it believes is its trademark.
With Xoom Corporation hiring some expensive lawyers the chances seem good that Motorola will have to shell out quite a bit either for its own defence or in payments to Xoom Corporation. µ

Beautiful work, what Graphic tablet you have...
I bought the new version (I linked its photo before) Recently and I can't draw any thing with it , just some circles and lines, the pointer jumps from side to side It seems that I Don't have any control on pointer even though my drawings on paper are not bad. I thought it was because of Tablet type itself and I wanted to give it back to the seller and save my money to buy a Cinitiq Hd, But now that I see what you do with Older version of my tablet, I'm just amazed,and I've so much respect for your works now, You are a Great Artista.

Garbage pickup will be one day late this week due to the Memorial Day Holiday.
Jasper Mayor Sonny Posey presented a proclamation Tuesday to recognize May 23 as Rail Safety Tour Day as part of this year's Operation LifeSaver campaign.
Operation Lifesaver is a nationwide public awareness campaign dedicated to reducing collisions, injuries and fatalities at rail crossings across the U.S.
The group's catch phrase is 'See Tracks? Think Train.'
The proclamation, which Posey presented to Carl Goforth and Nancy Hudson of Operation Lifesaver, read, in part, that "in 2015, preliminary data shows that of 90 highway-rail collision incidents involving trains, there were 34 injuries and fatalities in Alabama …"Read more ...
Located in northwest Alabama on Interstate Highway 22, Jasper is a thriving retail hub, center of growing industrial development and home to approximately 14,000 residents. Enjoying one of the top ranked education systems in the State of Alabama, ongoing renovated Park & Recreation programs and its close proximity to the outstanding recreation areas such as Smith Lake, Bankhead National Forest and the Warrior River makes it an attractive area for relocation.

Porco Rosso is yet another Miyazaki film I had not seen, it was really great. I'm pretty sure it's my second favorite, right next to Princess Mononoke. I really enjoyed illustrating this one, the whole face drawn with smoke idea was interesting to do and really made me think about the concept a lot more.
