Government Motors: General Motors, Once a Proud Success Story of American Free-Enterprise Capitalism, Is Now in the Vanguard of Our Nation's Precipitous Plunge into Full-Blown Socialism
Scaliger, Charles, The New American
Monday, June 1, was the end of an era for the American automotive industry. As nearly everyone not living in the jungles of Borneo knows by now, once-mighty General Motors, the flagship corporation of American automobile manufacturing and one of the most potent symbols worldwide of American industrial might, slid into Chapter 11 bankruptcy after the Great Recession dealt the long-foundering giant the coup de grace. In what is being billed as the fourth-largest bankruptcy in American history and the largest ever for an industrial manufacturer, GM claims $82.29 billion in assets against almost $173 billion in debt--this, be it duly noted, after billions in federal government bailout monies have been shoveled GM's way.
Since the beginning of the decade, the company whose fortunes were once proclaimed to foreshadow those of the nation as a whole saw share values plummet from around $70 to 70 cents. As part of the June 1 bankruptcy, GM announced plans to shutter or idle 12 of its plants, laying off tens of thousands of workers in the process. Many of its marquee brands, including Pontiac and Saturn, would be sold off or discontinued, and shareholders wiped out.
The U.S. government, with a new cash infusion of $30 billion on top of $20 billion already showered on GM, will now have an ownership stake of 60 percent. Our fine neighbors to the north got into the act, too. Under the terms of GM's bankruptcy, the Canadian government is contributing $9.5 billion in exchange for a 12.5 percent stake in the company.
Despite the foolishly optimistic vaporings of President Obama and other politicos thrilled at the prospect of Washington running an automobile company ("A new beginning ... a rebirth ... a new General Motors," Senator Carl Levin of Michigan called it), the corporation that has now been nationalized will never be more than a pale shadow of the former icon of American industry. Nationalization, the president is now assuring us, will be only a temporary measure; but in politics, alas, "temporary" is usually reckoned in transgenerational terms. Most of the "temporary" emergency measures of the Great Depression are still with us in one form or another. "Temporary" military deployments overseas--in South Korea and in the former Yugoslavia, for example--are now part of the status quo.
Unfortunately for General Motors, liberal Washington insiders who have tried for decades to destroy the automobile industry by foisting cumbrous environmental and safety regulations on GM and its two major competitors are unlikely to see the seizure of the world's second-largest auto manufacturer as anything other than a golden opportunity to remake the auto industry in their own image. New fuel efficiency and emissions standards already announced by the Obama administration to be phased in by 2016 will be foisted--along with sundry other environment and safety-related conceits--on GM's federal government-managed product line. Because taxpayer dollars, not consumer choice, will henceforth drive decision making at GM, cost, efficiency, and other hallmarks of industry competitiveness will no longer be an issue.
GM's Economic Travels
How has General Motors come to such a pass? While questionable executive judgment certainly played a role, the federal government--with its regulatory burdens and other economic distortions, as well as its support for coercive union demands--has also been a major contributor (as GM spokesmen have correctly pointed out from time to time). There was, for example, the 1990 capitulation to UAW in which GM agreed to pay workers even when plants were idle. This was just one of a myriad indignities GM has been forced to endure at the hands of a UAW empowered and emboldened by the National Labor Relations Act of 1935 that made it illegal for companies to get rid of unions. That GM has managed to survive for so long, all the while having to pay thousands of employees for not working, fund expensive employee healthcare packages mandated by the union that cost an estimated $1,600 dollars per car manufactured, and finance lavish pensions that drove the corporation billions of dollars into the red before the recession even got started, is little short of a miracle. …

Any suggestions how I can edit Office web app documents in my iPhone? I'm not seeing support for it from Microsoft via an app, such as the case with Lync and Outlook. Both of those have an app available on the iPhone.
Thanks for the feedback.
Hi Dan,
Have you tried just going to the O365 or SkyDrive website to see if they work? I know I can edit with them using my Blackberry PlayBook, direct from the websites.
How are things going on your side? If you need further assistance on this issue, please feel free to contact us.
Thanks for your efforts.

Bummed that there's no iPhone equivalent to editing office documents. Thanks for the clarification. I'm saved from endlessly searching and hoping. :)

Short sales stymied by complications, delays
With an estimated 20 percent of U.S. mortgage holders owing more on their loans than their homes are worth, short sales often represent the best chance for distressed borrowers to avoid foreclosure.
The problem is that many real estate professionals say it's growing increasingly difficult to complete transactions in which lenders allow sellers to accept less for the home than the outstanding debt. Many pending short sales fall through as buyers grow tired of waiting for loan servicers to complete a lengthy approval process.
"There is an awful lot of paperwork and moving parts," said Rick Sharga, vice president of the RealtyTrac real estate research firm. "The loan servicers are overwhelmed. There is a huge, huge bottleneck. It's not at all uncommon to hear a Realtor talk about making an offer on a short-sale home and not hearing back for three months."
Acknowledging that more needs to be done, Bank of America last week announced plans to "re-engineer" the way it processes short-sale requests. The move represents a major shift in strategy for one of the world's largest financial institutions.
Typically, processing a short-sale request takes 45 to 60 days at the bank, said David Sunlin, its real estate management executive. Under the new plan, Bank of America hopes to reduce the response time to one week or less.
The impact on the mortgage market could be significant, since Bank of America, with its acquisition of Countrywide Financial, services one in five mortgages in the U.S., officials said.
Banks don't like to lose money, but consumer demand for short sales is skyrocketing, explained Sunlin. Sometimes allowing a home to sell for less than the outstanding debt is better than going through a costly foreclosure process.
"A short sale is not a one-size-fits-all cure-all but, when it is appropriate, we would agree that it has been underutilized as a tool," he said. "We are seeing at least twice as many (short-sale) offers this year as last year, and that doubled from the year before that."
The plan, which will be implemented in 60 to 90 days, calls for the bank to reach out to homeowners and begin working with them as soon as they decide to list a home as a short sale. Currently, the process of evaluating short-sale requests doesn't begin until a delinquent homeowner approaches the bank with an offer to sell a home for less than the outstanding debt.
Aware of the short-sale bottleneck, the Obama administration is attempting to address the problem through a large infusion of cash. While details of how the plan will be implemented remain unclear, the idea is to give both lenders and distressed borrowers financial incentives to make more short sales happen.
Lenders have been slow to embrace short sales because they don't like to take losses. Even when they decide a short sale is in their best interest, it can take months to negotiate a price. If there is more than one mortgage, which is common in California, the second, unsecured lien holder must sign off on the sale. That usually means cutting a deal with the first lien holder to share a portion of the proceeds.
In cases where loans have been bundled into securities and sold on Wall Street, things get even more complicated. Investors may need to sign off on the deal.
Part of the problem is that each financial institution has its own method of processing short-sale requests. Unless you are familiar with various servicing companies, working out a deal can be a time-consuming ordeal. A common complaint is that many of the loan officials who work on short sales appear to be learning as they go along.

Riot police break up anti-Putin protest in Moscow
MOSCOW An attempt by Vladimir Putin's foes to protest his presidential election victory by occupying a Moscow square ended Monday with riot police quickly dispersing and detaining hundreds of demonstrators - a stark reminder of the challenges faced by Russia's opposition.
The harsh crackdown could fuel opposition anger and bring even bigger protests of Putin's 12 years in power and election to another six, but it also underlined the authorities' readiness to use force to crush such demonstrations.
The rally marked a change of tactics for the opposition, which has been looking for ways to maintain the momentum of its demonstrations that flared in December. Alexei Navalny, a popular blogger and one of the most charismatic protest leaders, was the first to suggest that supporters remain on Moscow's streets and squares to turn up the heat on Putin.
For Putin, the opposition move raised the specter of the 2004 Orange Revolution in Ukraine, where demonstrators camped on Kiev's main square in massive protests that forced officials to throw out a fraud-tainted election victory by the Kremlin-backed candidate.
The government's response Monday night was fast and decisive. Lines of officers in full riot gear marched into tree-lined Pushkin Square and forced protesters into waiting police buses. About 250 people were detained around the city, police said.
The crackdown followed a rally that drew about 20,000 people angry over an election campaign slanted in Putin's favor and reports of widespread violations in Sunday's voting.
Putin commands the loyalty of police and the military, whose wages were recently doubled. Following Monday's massive show of force, the urban middle-class forming the core of the protests could be more reluctant to attend future demonstrations.
Navalny - who sought to electrify the crowd with a passionate call of "We are the power!" - was among those detained, along with opposition leader Sergei Udaltsov. Both were released from police custody a few hours later.
"We are calling for peaceful action of civil disobedience, and we shall not leave," Navalny shouted to the crowd. "We know the truth about this government. This is the government of crooks and thieves."
Upon his release from police custody, Navalny told 30-40 supporters who greeted him that another protest was planned for Saturday in Moscow and other cities.
"We will keep on fighting until we win," he said.
Putin, who was president from 2000-08 and is the current prime minister, won more than 63 percent of the vote, according to the nearly complete official returns, but the opposition alleged massive ballot fraud. Communist Party candidate Gennady Zyuganov finished a distant second with 17 percent.
"The campaign has been unfair, cowardly and treacherous," said opposition leader Grigory Yavlinsky, who was denied registration for the race on a technicality.
International election monitors pointed to the lack of real competition and said the vote count "was assessed negatively" in almost a third of polling stations that observers visited.
"There was no real competition, and abuse of government resources ensured that the ultimate winner of the election was never in doubt," said Tonino Picula, the head of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe observer mission. "Broadcast media was clearly biased in favor of one candidate and did not provide fair coverage of the other candidates."
Russian observers cited numerous reports of "carousel voting," in which busloads of voters were driven around to cast ballots multiple times, as well as other violations. They said the number appeared to be as high as in December's disputed parliamentary vote that kicked off the protests.

Oppression is when a person or group in a position of power controls the less powerful in cruel and unfair ways. Not cool.
"Power concedes nothing without a demand. I never did and it never will." Those words came from Frederick Douglass, a former slave who devoted his life to ending the oppression of black people at the hands of powerful white slaveowners. The Latin root means "pressed against," and oppression feels like hands pressing your head, keeping you down. Oppression can be widespread throughout a culture, or felt by a single individual, like enduring the sun's oppression on a hot summer day.
Definitions of oppression
n the act of subjugating by cruelty
"the tyrant's oppression of the people"
- Synonyms:
- subjugation
- Type of:
the act of persecuting (especially on the basis of race or religion)
n the state of being kept down by unjust use of force or authority: "after years of oppression they finally revolted"
- Types:
an oppressive power
- Type of:
subjection, subjugation
forced submission to control by others
n a feeling of being oppressed
- Synonyms:
- oppressiveness
- Types:
an oppressive feeling of heavy force
- Type of:
sad feelings of gloom and inadequacy

About Me
Hi There! I'm Marisa Lerin and you'll see me around at Pixel Scrapper a lot. I started this site in 2010 soon after I discovered a new love in digital scrapbooking. Pixel Scrapper has gone through some significant changes since that time and it's grown into this lovely community site you are seeing now. I am daily surprised by the turn of life's events that has led me down this path. If you're new to the site, welcome! Here are a few tidbits about me that I hope will help you get to know me better!
I'm originally from Minnesota, USA, but spent a good chunk of my childhood living abroad (in Bolivia and Hong Kong). I returned to Minnesota to attend university, got married and then moved overseas again (Korea, then Jordan and 1 year of traveling). My designs are heavily influenced by these many nomadic years. I am currently back in the USA, now living in the great state of Oregon!
I have no official training for what I'm doing, since I decided very wisely (haha) to study physics in university. I am always learning new things about digital scrapbooking, and this community has been immensely helpful for that!
If I manage to stop digital scrapbooking you will probably find me watching TV, reading or baking. I also enjoy writing for the blog here at Pixel Scrapper where I talk about whatever happens to be catching my fancy at the moment.

|Head Coach
Richard Corso, one of the most highly respected and successful water polo coaches in the world, is now in his 11th year as a member of the Golden Bear family.
Corso reached two significant milestones during the 2015 season. The first came on Feb. 21 when he registered his 200th career victory with a win over UC Irvine. The second came in April when he was voted in to the USA Water Polo Hall of Fame.
Corso, who enters the 2016 season with a 206-88 record at Cal, has served as head coach for both the United States Men's Olympic Team and the Canadian Men's National Team. He was selected in August 2005 to be the mentor for the University of California women's water polo program. Corso not only offers a superior knowledge of the sport of water polo, he possesses a competitive attitude that is sure to get the most out of his student-athletes.
In 2015, Corso guided the Bears to their fourth NCAA Championships appearance in the past six years. They reached the semifinals before ultimately finishing fourth after an overtime loss to USC in the Third Place Game. Corso also led Cal to a victory over No. 1 Stanford in the semifinals of the MPSF Tournament, giving the Bears their first win over the Cardinal since 2000 - a string of 40 consecutive matches.
Corso also led the Bears to the NCAA semifinals in 2014 before falling to eventual NCAA champion Stanford. The Bears went 20-10 and ascended to as high as No. 3 in the national rankings.
In 2010, Corso led the Bears to their first-ever appearance in the NCAA tournament, the first of back-to-back trips to the tourney. Cal registered a third-place national finish in 2010 then advanced to the NCAA title match in 2011. The Bears finished 2011 with a record of 26-5 and won the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation Tournament title. Corso was named the MPSF Coach of the Year.
During his tenure at Cal, Corso has helped mentor a member of the 2008 and 2012 USA Olympic Women's Water Polo Team (Elsie Windes) and has coached 29 All-Americans and 30 MPSF all-league selections.
One of water polo's most innovative thinkers in terms of training and match tactics, Corso's creed is defensive, attacking water polo. He is a student of the game and has worked for the best American and European coaches. Corso learned from great coaches of the era such as Monte Nitzkowski, Ratko Rudic, Pete Cutino, Bob Horn and Art Lambert. He served as the United States Men's Olympic Team head coach from 1992-96, leading the United States to a seventh-place finish at the 1996 games in Atlanta and a gold medal at the 1995 Pan American Games. The 1996 Olympic team included current Cal men's coach Kirk Everist, and other former Bear standouts Gavin Arroyo, Troy Barnhart, Chris Humbert and Chris Oeding.
Prior to assuming his role with Team USA, Corso served as head coach of the Canadian National Team, which finished fourth at the 1991 Pan American Games. He also gained international experience as the head coach of the USA National Junior Team (1984 to 1988), and as goalkeeper coach for the 1984 silver medal-winning and 2004 Olympic teams.
Just before taking the Cal position, Corso had served as head of the Harvard-Westlake School Aquatic Program in Los Angeles from 1986-2005. In that role, he was responsible for virtually all aspects of the nation's premier high school squad. Since 1986, Harvard-Westlake water polo teams had combined to win 40 league championships, two CIF titles and seven CIF silver medals and five semifinal finishes. Additionally, 82 Harvard-Westlake student-athletes were named to All-America squads. Corso was named CIF Coach of the Year four times and California Coach of the Year in 1992. He also served as Harvard-Westlake's Associate Director of Admissions.
Corso began his head coaching career at Yale, where he led a club-varsity squad, and had previous coaching stops at UCLA, where he was assistant men's swimming and water polo coach. During his 10 years at UCLA, Corso helped the men's swim team to an NCAA runner-up finish in 1981 and an NCAA title in 1982, and an NCAA runner-up finish in men's water polo in 1979.
Taking over as the United States National Team coach following the 1992 Olympics, Corso inherited a squad that had lost eight of 13 members. He brought a new level of collaboration with the United States Olympic Committee to the sport, and emphasized the importance of sport science, sports psychology and computer-video tape analysis that was demonstrated to all of the USA water polo coaches. Corso led his 1996 Olympic team to within one goal of the medal round in Atlanta, losing to gold-medalist Spain. His energy, preparation, commitment and professionalism will have a lasting influence on American water polo for years to come.
A native of New York City, Corso swam and played water polo at Southern Connecticut University, earning a bachelor's degree in physical education in 1977. He then completed his master's in kinesiology at Cal State Northridge in 1982, and earned a second master's degree in coaching science from Moscow State University in 1999.
Corso and his wife, Catherine, a first-grade teacher, have two children - daughters Meredith, an instructor at Los Angeles City College, and Meghan, a former standout on the Cal women's water polo team from 2007-10.

Weak shortwave ridging has built into the area this afternoon and will continue into the early evening. A few showers/storms will remain possible this afternoon into the evening hours along and north of the surface boundary and we will keep some low pops for that. A few have recently developing over Ashland/Iron counties. Much of the guidance, including the CAMS, supports at least low POPS. MUCAPE values have risen to 500-1000 J/KG over our western and southern zones and we expect those values to rise further east as gradual clearing works east. Deep layer shear was around 30 knots for much of the area. There will be at least an isolated threat for strong/severe storms into the evening over parts of northwest Wisconsin. The upper flow will transition from the weak short wave ridging to southerly as a deeper trough moves east into the Northern Plains to the southern plains. We will delay the chance for showers/storms tonight as much of the guidance is in agreement on a slower development. The chance will then increase through the day Friday as a shortwave moves into the area along with a surface low with a surface front extending north to south through the area. PWAT values will rise to 1 to 1.4 inches so plenty of moisture will be available. We do have likely POPS over parts of the Northland despite both the SPC WRF and NSSL WRF suggesting isolated/scattered coverage. .LONG TERM...(Friday night through Thursday) Issued at 349 PM CDT Thu May 26 2016 An unstable flow will allow several waves to track across the region through the extended period, keeping showers and thunderstorms in the forecast for most of the upcoming week. A short wave with 850hPA closed low will lift northward across minnesota and into Ontario Saturday and saturday night. models are in good agreement PWATs increase to around 1.5" during this time, along with deeply saturated profiles and a few hundred j/kg of CAPE to provide sufficient instability and moisture for periods of heavy rain. A west to northwest flow will bring drier air into the northland as the low retreats towards Hudson bay on Sunday. LIngering showers and storms are expected mainly in the eastern zones across the MN arrowhead and over northern WI during the morning...ending through the afternoon. Surface high pressure and mid level ridging build over the forecast area Monday. have continued to carry small pops for an isolated shower or storm Monday. however, this time frame looks like the best shot for a dry day in most areas across the forecast area. Focus turns to a stacked low pressure system that will translate along the international border and bring a threat for storms and periods of heavy rain towards the end of next week. at this time...Long range models suggest a warm front lifts into the western great lakes region Tuesday...with the low pressure center sweeping the cold front across the region in the Wednesday/Thursday time frame. I would anticipate the timing of this system slows down and impacts the northland more towards the end of the week as typical for this far out in the forecast. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Friday afternoon) Issued at 1238 PM CDT Thu May 26 2016 generally vfr conditions through the afternoon and evening hours...with khib and KDLH on track to clear out in the 20Z-22Z time frame. The low clouds and fog will redevelop overnight with a period of lifr possible during the early morning. The unstable air mass will continue to support a few showers and thunderstorms through the evening...but have left out of TAFs at this time due to isolated nature and uncertainty in location. A transition back to southerly flow will lift area of rain with embedded thunderstorms in to the region through friday morning....becoming widespread during the afternoon. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

APMicrosoft has finally, cautiously, given a few statistics about how well its Office 365 software-as-a-service cloud is doing.
Office 365 is Microsoft's cloud version of its popular Microsoft Office suite aimed at businesses.
It is also its answer to Google Apps. Google has big, aggressive plans for Apps. In December, Amit Singh, head of Google's Enterprise unit said that Google plans to grab the 90% of Microsoft Office users who don't need the advanced features of Office .
Microsoft is battling to keep those customers. In the past few months it announced a lot big customer contracts for Office 365. But it wouldn't say how well Office 365 was doing overall.
On Thursday, Microsoft CFO Peter Klein told Wall Street analysts that "One in four of our enterprise customers" are now using Office 365 and that it is on a "$1 billion annual run rate."
A $1 billion annual run rate is a much less than the cash cow of Microsoft Office. The Business Division reported $6.3 billion this quarter alone, with 90% coming from Office products, including Office 365. Excluding the ~$1 billion attributed to Office 365, Microsoft Office generates over $4 billion this quarter.
Still, if one-quarter of Microsoft's enterprise customers have already adopted Office, Google isn't exactly eating Microsoft's lunch, either.

HEMET: Girl, 17, recruited as prostitute; 2 arrested
1 of 2More Galleries
A Hemet girl found in a raid this week by law enforcement authorities told them she was recruited as a prostitute at age 17 in San Bernardino and Santa Ana.
Two people were arrested in the case on Wednesday, June 18, after authorities searched a home in the 1100 block of Rosalia Avenue in Hemet. Participating in the search were members of a regional human-trafficking task force, the Riverside County Sheriff's Department, Hemet police and the U.S. State Department's Diplomatic Security Service.
The girl, now 18, was forced to perform sex acts for money on numerous occasions, according to a Riverside County Sheriff's Department news release. The girl's name was not released.
The case began May 12 after the county Anti-Human Trafficking Task Force had been alerted about the possible sexual exploitation of a 16-year-old by county Child Protective Services.
Dontae Lamar Wade, 30, and Precious Janinetternal Powers, 30, both of Hemet, were booked into the Southwest Detention Center in French Valley on suspicion of human trafficking, pimping of a minor and conspiracy.

Hi All!!!
I need some moral support.
My husband got a job in Durham NC and he is starting the second week of January. We live in south Florida. I work in accounting all day and DS goes to daycare from 8:00-5:00.
Now things will change. For now, we are leaving all at the same time; I don't want to expose DS to an unnecessary separation from his daddy.
Few concerns:
1. Finding a place. We are traveling on 12/7-9 to rent an apartment. I have been doing some research and have a list of 4 communities that we want to see and hopefully make the decision.
2. Getting a job....I work in accounting and recently got my CPA designation, so that might help. Considering that my husband has a new job, and I need to find one I am super concern with the working hours. I know that all jobs come with special situations, but I don't want to put my LO in a crazy "pickup time" situation. Hours in the accounting and finance departments can be long and stressing …..
3. Finding a preschool for DS. I have seen some public schools that start in pre-k, so he can start in August, but enrolling him in a different dc now and then make a change in August drives me crazy.
For now, I am just hoping for the best and ready to make the change, but the uncertainty is killing me.

Governor Beverly Perdue's office has announced the state is transferring up to $300 million from several special accounts into a reserve to support the General Fund.
According to a release on Governor Perdue's website, she is taking the steps to manage the current fiscal year budget shortfall.
One of the reserve funds tapped for money for the general fund support is the "Education Lottery Reserve Fund."
The Charlotte Observer reported this weekend that Perdue has said she may use up to $88 million in lottery money to "shore up the state's coffers."
According to the Governor's new release, she is asking "Most state agencies for further reduction amounts from 7 percent to 9 percent. Governor Perdue will continue to protect public education as much as possible while managing the shortfall."
Below is information from the release on the Governor's website as well as the breakdown of transfers. You can also click on the related link below to go to the news release on the Governor's website.
From Governor Perdue's website:
"As a precautionary step to manage cash flow, the state will transfer up to $300 million dollars from several special accounts into the General Fund. The money will be put into a reserve and may be used to support General Fund obligations if necessary. These transfers will be managed so that existing activities supported by these special funds aren't impacted. The state annually faces cash flow issues between mid-February and April 15. The state's cash position is more heavily impacted this year because final corporate payments are now due by April 15, 2009, rather than March 15, 2009."
"'The state constitution requires that I balance the state budget, and I will do that while protecting public education as much as possible,' said Gov. Perdue."
Transfers, as listed on Governor's website:
From the Education Lottery reserve (current cash balance $50 million): $50 million
From the Clean Water Management Trust Fund reserve (current cash balance $251 million): $100 million
From the Public School Building Capital Fund reserve (current cash balance $316 million): $100 million
From the Public School Textbook Fund reserve (current cash balance $65 million): $50 million
Total reserve funds transferred $300 million out of current cash balance of $682 million

Sinusitis is an infection of lining of the sinuses near the nose. These infections most often happen after a cold or after an allergy flare-up. There are 4 types:
The sinuses are cavities, or air-filled pockets, that are near the nose passage. The sinuses make mucus. This fluid cleans the bacteria and other particles out of the air you breathe.
A sinus infection can happen after a cold. The cold inflames the nasal passages. This can block the opening of the sinuses and lead to infection. Allergies can also cause the nasal tissue to swell and make more mucus and cause sinusitis.
Other conditions that can lead to sinusitis include:
If mucus drainage is blocked, bacteria may start to grow. This leads to a sinus infection, or sinusitis. The most common viruses and bacteria that cause sinusitis also cause the flu or certain kinds of pneumonia.
The symptoms of sinusitis may depend on your age. These are the most common symptoms of sinusitis:
Younger children
Older children and adults
The symptoms of sinusitis may look like other conditions or health problems. Always talk to your health care provider for a diagnosis.
Often, your health care provider can diagnosis sinusitis based on your symptoms and a physical exam. Sometimes other tests are done. These may include:
Your health care provider will figure out the best care based on:
Treatment of sinusitis may include:
You may be referred to an allergist or immunologist, especially for chronic or recurrent sinusitis. People who have had sinus surgery, but still have sinusitis, may also be referred.
Decongestants and antihistamines do not seem to help the symptoms of sinusitis.
You should see a health care provider right away if you have:
These symptoms may point to a serious condition.

Deuteronomy is a book about Israel's preparation for a new life. Hardship and the wilderness lie behind; the conquest of the promised land lies ahead. What remains at this crucial stage in Israel's history—the end of the Mosaic Age—is a call for a new commitment to God and a fresh understanding of the nature of the community of God's people.
Interpreting Deuteronomy from a conservative perspective, Peter C. Craigie highlights the centrality of the book's theme of covenant commitment while also taking great care to demonstrate how Deuteronomy is a book with considerable contemporary relevance. He uses resources of recent research in Old Testament studies to effectively bridge the gap of more than three thousand years that separates the modern reader from the events described in Deuteronomy, thus clarifying the primary message of the text for the modern reader. In its simplest phrasing that message is "Commit yourself to God wholeheartedly." Deuteronomy, according to Craigie, provides a paradigm for the kingdom of God in the modern world.
Popular Highlights
Whether taken literally or metaphorically, the signs described in vv. 8–9 indicate that the individual (v. 8), his home, and his community (v. 9) were to be distinguished in their character by obedience to the commandments as a response of love for God.5 people highlighted this

Edit Article
How to Change an Employee's Attitudes
The dictionary says that an optimistic outlook takes a favorable view of events and conditions and expects a favorable outcome. A pessimism outlook is one of negatively and anger. This is reflected in the saying that the cup is half empty or the cup is half full. Basically when your employees are pessimistic, they are working against you.
This article has been tagged as a stub.
That means it's off to a good start, but still has room to grow into a more helpful resource. Until the article reaches its full potential, it will be hidden from search results. Can you help it flourish? If you think the article offers complete and accurate instructions, feel free to remove this tag.
1Promote team Work. Ask yourself "do you really need people that are working against you on your team"? If your company was an ant colony all the ants would work together for the good of the colony. All of your employees should work together to promote the success of your company.
2Eliminate jerks. Jerks need not apply, with the market as it is people can have their pick of employees, so why pick someone with a bad attitude.
3Avoid negativity . A negative attitude harms people around them; it actually can cause people to be sick. A negative attitude shortens a person's life. The one who has it and those around them may wish they were dead.
4Avoid drama. Drama is about getting negative attention, don't play into it. A temper tantrum is another way of getting their way. When children have temper tantrums you ignore them.
5Appreciate a job. A thankful attitude, people need to be grateful that they have a job, and grateful to the public to keep their jobs.
6Choose the positive. Chose to have a grateful attitude instead of an "I am deserving" attitude. Focus on the good and positive instead of the bad in life.
7Positive attitudes look for a solution to a problem.
8Don't give up; an "expect success" attitude can change a person's whole life.
