Recycling and garbage service through much of King and Snohomish counties could be disrupted if negotiations between Waste Management and its recycling drivers remain stalled.
Pickup of recycling, and maybe garbage, for up to 280,000 residential and commercial customers could stop or be delayed next week if one of the area's largest waste-service providers and a drivers union don't reach a contract agreement.
Waste Management made what it called a final offer to Teamsters Local 117 last week after more than five months of negotiations. Two hours later, the union responded with an alternative proposal that the company refused to consider.
"While we are willing to discuss our last, best and final (proposal) with the union, we have gone as far as we intend to go financially," said Robin Freedman, director of communications for the company's area branch.
Teamsters Local 117 — which picks up recycling and yard waste — plans to meet Saturday morning, along with garbage-truck drivers from Teamsters Local 174, to discuss the proposal. The drivers could vote on it, reattempt negotiations or vote for a strike.

When Local 174 went on strike for 36 hours in 2010, Local 117 joined it. If both unions choose to strike, both garbage and recycling services would be affected in much of South Seattle and Northwest Seattle, as well as in unincorporated areas of King and Snohomish counties.
Service-area maps can be found at www.wmnorthwest.com/seattle.
Tracey Thompson, secretary-treasurer for Local 117, said Waste Management has brought in members of its Green Team to follow drivers on their routes the past few weeks and has hired a security staff from a company that specializes in lockouts and strikes. She said the Green Team is a company group of drivers often brought in to take over service when there's a strike.
Freedman refused to comment on this. Avoiding the word "strike," she said Waste Management has contingency plans for various causes of disrupted service.
Along with increases in benefits, Waste Management is proposing to increase hourly pay by $5.10 by the end of the six-year deal. But Thompson of Local 117 said that's not enough when garbage-truck drivers' hourly pay is already $6.12 higher.
"The gap is continuing to grow because the garbage drivers are continuing to get raises," Thompson said.
It's unfair, she said, because recycling-truck drivers work the same routes, use the same equipment and face the same risks.
She said the request is reasonable because Waste Management has seen profits increase through the economic downturn, thanks to the hard work of those same drivers.
Tensions in negotiations rose when Local 117 ratified a five-year contract June 2 with competitor Allied Waste that made compensation even between their recycling and garbage drivers, Thompson said.
Waste Management's proposal also includes improvements to benefits and a $2,000 bonus for recycling-truck drivers if the proposal is approved this weekend.

Thinking about building up a dedicated commuter, and am not sure what bars to go with. I currently commute on either a flat bar mountain bike and a drop bar road bike. The flat bar is nicer in town, feels more stable and maneuverable, while the drop bars are nice way to get down out of the wind on long stretches.
Would mountain bike shifters and brakes mounted on a wide drop bar be an option? Trekking bars look interesting, but not sure how practical they'd be.

Cheating gf on Holiday
I set Gf up to cuck me and she never knew
Hey lads… been thinking about a situation which happened last year when my GF and I went away on holiday to Aya Napa.
Keeping the story brief for the moment, one evening we had a bit of an argument and she went off into bar area of town, leaving me to try and find her. Eventually I gave up and went back to our hotel. Tried her mobile with no response but something told me to wait for her down in the hotel bar. At about 01:00 I saw her arriving back, drunk, laughing and giggling with a group of four younger lads (18-20) who we had been chatting to occasionally around the pool etc. (she had seemed to enjoy being noticed by them as at times she was topless and made no efforts to cover herself up while they chatted to us).
At this point I got this tense horny feeling that a fantasy may be played out, even though I maybe should have been angry. My excitement got even more intense after I didn't make my presence known to them but hid out of sight and phoned. She answered saying she was still in town and would be back later once she got a cab and for me to get to sleep! Nothing was further from my thoughts. My mind started racing at the possibilities which could happen with the lads who were all fairly cute and attentive to Donna. Two were black lads and she had always mentioned a fantasy of being had by a line of young attractive lads one after another. I had a nice semi hard on developing, so just stayed in a different part of the bar where I could watch them without being seen.
Eventually after watching her sitting on laps and being snogged and felt up (she was in a halter top, short skirt and boots; sorry, wish I had taken a photo at the start of the evening) and having more drinks, she took one lads hand and they moved off towards the lift. I had to follow up the stairs and discovered which room was his and watched as they went in.
To keep the story brief for the time being, I won't go into any more details but I was able to listen at the door as she first sucked him (obvious sounds) and then was taken by him on the bed. For any lads who haven't experienced the intense horniness of listening as your GF gets shagged willingly by another lad, it was amazing! I am pretty sure she was had by the other lad sharing the same room later (I had to watch out for anyone coming back along the corridor etc, so wasn't able to listen continuously) She eventually got back to our room about 04:30 and made out she was too tired to make up.
I never told her I knew what had happened, maybe some other lads have been in the same position? But, despite my jealousy of what they had done or maybe enviousness, the following days I made out everything was normal when any of them came over while we were by the pool and watched how Donna reacted.
The lads were traveling back home on two different flights. The black lads later in the evening than the other two and I had the idea of setting something up. I suggested that Donna could offer them to use our shower facilities as they would have to book out of their rooms early. She did this, totally innocent of my intentions and they spent much of their last day with us at the pool and bar etc. with me getting more horny and excited at the prospect of a plan coming together that none of them knew about.
At the end of the afternoon they came up to our room to use the shower. Donna was still in her bikini and I made some excuse to have to go out and get something, so left them alone with her. I must be a good actor. The obvious happened again, especially as I text her saying I would be a little longer before returning. But this time, due to the position of our room I had previously arranged the curtains so I could see inside by using a service corridor doorway just outside our balcony.
There is nothing like the uber horny feeling I got watching what went on between them all. The whole experience will stay with me for ever and has never been bettered. Donna never said anything to me about it!
There are several things which encouraged me to write this brief account…
1) Has a similar situation occurred to any other readers on here.
2) If anyone wants to know more particular details/has specific questions, then just post on here (saves me writing the whole story!)
3) We are no longer together as a couple, so I have no revenge issues, but wonder if any of those lads ever come on this site and maybe want to add their own views? I would be happy to hear more!
4) Donna is now working as a Holiday Rep and has been based in Cyprus and Crete last year, Tenerife last winter and Cyprus again this year so far. So how about any lads sharing stories about Donna's foreign activities which they may have been part of? (send me your photos! LOL)
5) I doubt she will ever come on this site to read what I have added, but even if she did, well it happened and she knows what she did and never admitted it to me!
Let me know lads and just writing about this has brought back all those horny memories!

The U.S. Institute of Medicine recommended providing women free birth control and other preventive health services under the country's healthcare overhaul.
The IOM report, commissioned by the Obama administration, recommended that all U.S.-approved birth control methods -- including the "morning after pill," taken shortly after intercourse to forestall pregnancy -- be added to the federal government's list of preventive health services.
"The evidence supporting contraception is quite straightforward. It works," said Dr. Alfred Berg, a member of IOM's Committee on Preventive Services for Women.
The IOM noted that women with unplanned pregnancies were more likely to put off or neglect prenatal care and to smoke, drink or experience depression.
The recommendation to add birth control is a big gain for organizations like the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and Planned Parenthood, but is likely to stoke opposition from conservative and religious groups.
"I'm really taken and pleased with the concept of making contraceptive methods available to women in general," said Dr. James Martin Jr., ACOG's president. "It's just a shame that so many pregnancies in this country are unplanned and unwanted."
Other services recommended by IOM include screening for gestational diabetes, testing for human papillomavirus (HPV) in women over 30, counseling for HIV and sexually transmitted infections, lactation counseling, screening for domestic violence and yearly wellness visits.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has the final say over what services will be offered. Department of Health Secretary Kathleen Sebelius called the IOM report "historic."
The IOM is an independent, nonprofit organization that works outside of government to provide health-policy advice.

Players in title game like BCS system
PASADENA, Calif. Alabama coach Nick Saban is one of six active coaches to win two national titles - but the first to do it at different schools, having also won the 2003 BCS title with LSU.
"He's just a coach that is driven, and he has a vision, and he tries to do his best to instill his characteristics in us," Alabama tailback Mark Ingram said.
The other active coaches with two titles are Penn State's Joe Paterno; Arizona State's Dennis Erickson, who won them at Miami; Oklahoma's Bob Stoops; USC's Pete Carroll; and Florida's Urban Meyer.
ANDERS' FINALE: Eryk Anders came into Alabama without receiving much attention, but leaves in a far different situation.
The lightly recruited linebacker's blindside hit on Texas quarterback Garrett Gilbert knocked the ball loose near the Longhorns' goal line. Courtney Upshaw recovered to set up Ingram's 1-yard touchdown run to make it a two-score game with 2:01 left.
The forced fumble "was really the difference in the game," Saban said.
Anders, a San Antonio native, was mostly overlooked in the recruiting process before then-Tide coach Mike Shula came in with a late scholarship offer. He had only 32 tackles in his first three seasons combined but started 10 games as a senior and more than doubled that total.
The final play was the capper on an unlikely success story. He considered transferring after the 2007 season over lack of playing time, but stuck it out at his father's urging.
Later that night, retired Air Force Capt. Gayle Anders died in his sleep of an apparent heart attack. He was 65.
BCS BACKERS: With the BCS ramping up efforts to improve its public image, it might want to consider bringing in Alabama nose guard Terrence Cody as a spokesman.
The 350-pound All-American is no fan of the idea of a major college football playoff.
"That's stupid," Cody said earlier this week. "I don't think there should be any playoff. Why should there be a playoff? I mean, in the NFL they're getting paid to play off and stuff."
Fellow Tide All-American Javier Arenas also gave a thumbs down to a playoff.
Alabama guard Mike Johnson was lukewarm to the idea, but could understand why others might want the BCS to expand.
"I can't complain, coming from one of the better BCS conference," Johnson said. "Anytime you're from the SEC and you go undefeated, you know you're going to be in (the BCS championship) game. It seems we always get the benefit of the doubt.
"There are some good teams out there that need a shot. Utah proved it to us last year. Maybe something in between. Maybe a plus-one game. But I don't know, a playoff might add too many games."
Texas receiver Malcolm Williams was also in the no-playoff camp.
"I really don't think so, the way it is is fine," he said. "Even if there was a playoff there would be errors."
Longhorns defensive lineman Lamarr Houston is a playoff supporter and even offered a way to do it. He said the month most teams spend waiting to play in a BCS game could be used for playoff games.
"I'm sure if you had a couple extra bye weeks in there, maybe two weeks after the season give (the players) a break and then have a championship game in mid-January, I don't think it would be much different from playing in a bowl game," he said. "It'd benefit all of college football more and you could have a true champion with no complaints."
ROSE BOWL REDUX: Before the 2006 Rose Bowl, when Texas faced a No. 1 Southern California team that was seeking its third straight national title and had two Heisman Trophy winners, Longhorns coach Mack Brown stood on the field in awe of his opponents.

The book is a treasure, one of the many rare books that should be hoarded.
The poetry is simple yet extreme, ecstasy that remains unbridled.
The photographs are the eyes that moves in angles under light and shade giving an explicit vivid experience.

Ruth Marcus: Religion's tradition/modernity clash
WASHINGTON — Several years ago, at my daughter's Bat Mitzvah, three generations of women in our family wore tallit, the Jewish prayer shawl traditionally worn by men. So did the rabbi, also a woman.
In Israel, this behavior can get you arrested.
This week, 10 women were detained by Israeli police for wearing tallit at Jerusalem's Western Wall.
An Israeli regulation prohibits "any religious ceremony" at the wall "not in accordance with the custom of the holy site and which offends the sensitivities of the worshippers." Women wearing prayer shawls have been deemed unduly provocative because of the biblical injunction against women wearing men's clothing, and vice versa.
This episode may sound like some obscure tribal fight, and it is. But the dispute also echoes larger religious battles — not only within Judaism but also within Islam and the Catholic Church.
The common chord of orthodox religions' struggle against the tides of modernity involves women, specifically whether to loosen doctrinal restrictions on women. So it was a fitting coincidence that the latest skirmish involving the group known as Women of the Wall occurred the same day Pope Benedict XVI announced his abdication.
One of the central questions facing the Catholic Church — one of the stances on which Benedict was most unrelenting and on which his successor is likely to be similarly rigid — is the ordination of women.
The rational move, for a church facing a dire worldwide shortage of priests, would be to expand the pool of potential candidates. This concession to modernity would not be resisted by the faithful; polls in the United States and abroad show strong majorities in support of women serving as priests.
Instead, the church has been moving in the opposite direction, hardening the teaching against ordaining women priests and declaring this doctrine "set forth infallibly," incapable of being changed. In 2010, the church decreed that the "attempted ordination of women" was among the list of most grievous crimes under church law, on a par with priests sexually abusing minors.
The church gets to set the church's rules; when you're pope, "because I said so" is a rather convincing — indeed, infallible — argument. The more interesting question is what fuels this rigidity.
Why is the idea of a female priest so threatening? Why is the notion of a woman wearing a prayer shawl so provocative? As with women as Catholic priests, there is no positive biblical injunction against this practice, although, again as with women priests, it's contrary to tradition.
And why in the more extreme corners of Islam is the thought of a girl receiving an education, or a woman appearing alone or uncovered in public, so inflammatory?
That question is, I admit, a sudden shift, a marked rhetorical escalation. The pope is not the Taliban. Neither are the ultraorthodox rabbis. There is no comparison between their positions, however irrational and chauvinistic, and those of Islamic extremists.
But I would also suggest that the underlying impulses are not all that different: fear of encroaching modernity undermining doctrinal control.
That this reasoning is not necessarily conscious on the part of those seeking to maintain authority does not make it any less powerful. "I think it's truly a deep-seated belief on the part of the male hierarchy that they have this profound theological obligation to keep it as it is," Patricia McGuire, president of Trinity Washington University told me.
The tallit-wearing women did not seek to pray on the side of the wall that has been designated for men. And yet their actions — doing something common in my conservative synagogue — were deemed so threatening to public order that the police felt compelled to act.
To believe in religious liberty is to insist that the Catholic Church has the right to decide not to allow women priests, however backward this might be. To believe in religious pluralism is to insist that no single authority can dictate proper behavior. The Israeli government faces competing claims to a holy site. The solution cannot be for the Jewish state to arrest Jewish women for practicing their religion.

Re: Internal Scoring?
EC341, it's kinda like when you get "pre-approved" offers in the mail.
Nothing is "pre-approved" as far as actually getting a card or a loan. The pre-approval is the company's decision to send the mailer.
The point is that the creditor makes a decision on its own, and the credit score (regardless of flavor) is just one aspect of that decison making process.
No matter what happens with a credit card or any other account, you are you. Don't sweat it. And don't try to be a lawyer, either.
They need you a heckuva lot more than you need them.
Have a nice evening, and forget the email.

text: I have an old 1973 Ted Williams Free Sprit(Yes I know, its a bottom line but restoring and riding older ten speeds is my thing) that I restored last summer. Well the weather here in southern MO hit a high of 50 so I had to get out. Well I started to go up a hill and the shifting handle was very hard to push down. it went all the way down but the damn thing didn't shift. The chain just stays in the smallest cog. There is no tension screw either so that's not the problem. The derailleur barely moves but not enough to shift and I even adjusted the cable.

Amanda Newman knows the benefits of preschool in preparing students for kindergarten.
She has been on both sides.
In her third year as a preschool teacher at Crittenden-Mt. Zion Elementary, Newman spent one year each teaching kindergarten at CMZ, Mason-Corinth Elementary and Sherman Elementary.
"Kindergarten is packed with so much information that students who attend preschool will have all the pre-literacy and pre-mathematical foundation blocks in place for learning to happen naturally,"
With your first year in office over, what accomplishments are you most proud of and why?
Wells: I'm most proud of increasing the police department staffing and working to ward making Piddle Park a clean, safe and thriving park.
Looking ahead, what are a few goals you still would like to work towards?
Wells: We are working to make Dry Ridge a business-friendly location. We are aggressively working to attract more business from retail to restaurants and fabrication to production.
A second attempted gas station robbery in the past month was stopped after an observant clerk locked the suspects out.
Police are investigating to determine whether the two male would-be robbers may be connected to both incidents.
The most recent attempted robbery occurred at 9:47 p.m. March 19 at the Marathon gas station on KY 36 West in Williamstown.
With warmer weather on the horizon, members of Fitness For Life Around Grant County are getting busier.
FFLAG members are working to organize the annual Derby Dash on May 7 at the Williamstown Baptist Church. The 5K course runs through Williamstown and mail in pre-registration must be postmarked by April 30.
John Siedenberg of Williamstown has been involved with theatre productions most of his life.
His passion besides God and family is the theatre and he wants to turn that passion into a reality in Grant County.
Siedenberg is hosting a community meeting at 7 p.m. on Monday, March 27 at the Main Street Gardens (next to Rulers and Tractor Supply) in Williamstown to explore interest in a dinner theatre project.
The Northern Kentucky Health Department's first-ever needle exchange program will begin March 16 in Grant County.
The program will initially operate from 1 to 4 p.m. on Wednesdays at the Grant County Health Center at 234 Barnes Rd. in Williamstown.
The goal of the program, which allows participants to exchange dirty, heroin-tainted syringes for clean needles, is to halt the dramatic rise of hepatitis C cases in northern Kentucky during the heroin epidemic.
Brandon Holder used to go to Piddle Park in Dry Ridge all the time with his younger brother.
"We would go down there when nobody else cared about the field and rake it, pick weeds out of the infield and pickup trash," Holder said. "In the winter when there was ice on the court, Andrew (Simpson) and I would scrape off the court just so we could shoot basketball."
There is a lot of frustration and confusion around the imminent closure and movement of the Corinth Post Office.
The reasons for seem to be vague.
Some say "package liquor store."
Some say "new bar."

Speedpainting Ezio by TheBoyofCheeseWatch
©2011-2016 TheBoyofCheese
Just a quick painting. I dunno how long it took, but not long. With this pic, I tried to paint form instead of using lines. Using lines is somewhat of a habit though, so it didn't work too well. xD
Nice Your Getting Better And Better
I like it! <3
It certainly worked better than it would with me trying that. And I think it worked very well in your case. Gotta love the gradient-esque underlayer or WHATEVER it is that you did - looks awesome.

This was our first trip to this park and it was well worth it. The campground is nice with almost all sites having at least partial shade. Some sites are a little too close together for our liking, but not many. The campground and beach have modern, clean restrooms and showers and each shower house also has coin-op laundry. There are a good number of pet sites and, from what we saw, there are no restrictions on where pets may be walked in the campground. The beach and campground store, which also serves some food, are within walking distance of the campground. The sandy beach is well maintained, having been combed each morning during our stay. There are no lifeguards on duty at any time. The park has quite a few trails, but the only one we walked was the bog trail. That is part trail, part boardwalk along the lake shore and through the sphagnum moss bogs which surround the lake and give its water a "weak tea" look. As another reviewed said, the road coming into the park is narrow and steep with one especially sharp turn. But, the park is in the mountains of north-central Pennsylvania! The road coming from Philipsburg and RT 322 is much better than Beaver Road from US 220. We will definitely be back to this state park! - JEH412
Oct 2010 - $22.00
This is a nice enough park, but is a bear to get to and is not recommended for a simple overnight stay. The road into and out of the park is pretty steep and hard for a larger RV. Maneuvering in the campground is also rather tight. When we were there (off season) the lake was down quite a bit, making it not as attractive. When we went by the park office the attendant made us wait while she finished some paperwork before she would talk with us. Not the best customer service, but not a really big deal. The rate reflects off-season and senior discount. Do note that the pet sites cost more even if you do not have a pet. We would probably not stay there again. - TheJim
Jun 2007 - $17.00
My kids (ages 12 and 15) absolutely love this park! The campground is close enough to swimming and fishing that they can walk or ride bikes. This is a state park, so all that is available is water as far as hookups, but the location and surrounding activities make it awesome. The rangers patrol on foot at night and passed several times that I saw. The sites are very spacious and in some cases secluded. - eznuff

Once I added it my whole website got messed up. After a few hours I got everything mostly back to normal, but there are some things that are still not right. The font is different, my polls stopped working, my shareholics isn't working properly, all in all my site isn't the same as it used to be. I am looking for someone who would be willing to look and give me advice, or if someone knows where I can look. I want to make sure i get good advice, I want to avoid being hacked etc. I just don't know where to go next! Thanks for your help!

HourlyHours to be determined
I am looking for an MS Access Database Developer. I have an application that I have designed that will run my property business.
I am initially looking for someone to complete one module in the application. I expect thsi will need to be programmed using VBA. This will take two tables I have created - the interest rate and the transactions (payments and outgoings) and create a mortgage statement. I have all the necessary calculations and can provide detailed requirements.
Once this first phase is completed, if I am happy with the work, then will provide next set of requirements to create property management statements, add new client details, and create profit/loss statements.
I expect the first stage will be completed in up to 3 hours and I don't want to be paying more than $10ph, so please don't respond if you charge more than this.
It is not necessary to have accounting/financial background as I have all the calculations currently in spreadsheets and am interested in automating this in an Access Database. A financial background would be helpful though. I do need someone that has good English.
Thanks for looking and applying. Very excited to get this system up and running.

Toss this in your salad, top with meat and sprinkly the peanuts on top if desired.
Very gross. So gross in fact that I had a hard time even eating it at all. Plus, it made my house stink for the remainder of the night. Gross!
too much salad, not enough steak, and no flavor.

A woman was critically injured Monday evening in a T-bone accident at an intersection in Ridgefield.
Clark County Fire & Rescue was dispatched at 7:10 p.m. to Northeast 29th Avenue and Northeast 199th Street, where they found a crumpled red 1999 Mercury Cougar.
Few details were available about how the crash occurred at the two-way stop. The initial investigation indicates that the Mercury was southbound on Northeast 29th and failed to give the right-of-way to a 2006 Volvo SUV eastbound on Northeast 199th. The SUV T-boned the Mercury, pinning two women inside the sedan, said Clark County Sheriff's Sgt. Dave Nelson.
Firefighters used the Jaws of Life to cut off the roof of the sedan and get the women out of the car, said Battalion Chief Tim Dawdy. A Life Flight helicopter was put on standby but dismissed when the first ambulance arrived. Occupants of both vehicles were taken to PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center. One of the women in the Mercury was critically injured; the other was seriously injured. All three occupants in the SUV were evaluated for injuries.
The names of those involved were not released.
"We encourage people to wear seat belts and be mindful of the traffic safety devices out here," Nelson said.
The sheriff's office Traffic Unit is investigating. At this point, speed and alcohol do not appear to be factors.

Señor De Cachuy Group
At only 19 years old, Cecilia fell in love with the man who would become the father of her child, the policeman Lieutenant Rojas. They had made plans for their future and for their wedding but sadly one month before the wedding he was killed in the line of duty. At that time, she was pregnant with her only child Patric.
Cecilia was abandoned in all senses as, because she wasn't married, the law stated that she couldn't claim her fiancé's pension.
Cecilia had to work as hard as she could so that her little one didn't want for anything. Currently she sells food as a street trader and she also travels to the city of Cañete to help her brother who owns a bakery.
She will use her loan to add to her food business by starting to sell sodas.
Cecilia con tan solo 19 años se enamorò de quien seria el padre de su hijo, el efectivo policial, Teniente Rojas; ellos habian hecho planes para el futuro y los preparativos para su boda, pero lamentablemente un mes antes de su boda, el efectivo policial fuè asesinado en el servicio de su deber. Ella para ese entonces ya estaba gestando de su ùnico hijo Patric.
Cecilia quedò desamparada en todo sentido, ya que al no casarse no pudo reclamar pensiòn del padre de su hijo; pues por ley no le correspondìa.
Cecilia tuvo que hacer cuanto trabajo pudo desempeñar para que no le faltara nada a su pequeño. Actualmente es una vendedora de comida ambulante y adicionalmente viaja a la cuidad de Cañete para ayudar a su hermano que tiene una panaderia.
El prèstamo solicitado es para adicionar a su negocio de comida, la venta de bebidas gaseosas.

There are few filmmakers who have done as much to define the cinematic western as John Ford. The director's collaborations with John Wayne in the genre speak for themselves—"The Searchers," "Stagecoach," "Fort Apache," etc.—and his influence as a filmmaker, storyteller and American cinema in general is huge. So how to do you sum up his career in 50 minutes?
Well, the 1971 CBS TV documentary "The American West Of John Word" attempts to do just that, though mostly by going through the lens of his westerns. Featuring participation of Ford himself, with narration by Wayne, James Stewart and Henry Fonda, the doc chronicles the director's western, his use of music, and the role of women in his films, along with memories of moviemaking in general. It's well worth some of your time given the heavy hitters involved.

Despite their relatively high costs, Augmented Reality apps are sneaking into the second screen advertising experience, creating richer opportunities for brands to interact with potential consumers. Right now most AR is centered around apps for smartphones. The global install base of AR-capable devices rose from 8 million smartphones in 2008 to 100 million in 2010. According to Nielsen, 43 percent of all mobile subscribers use smartphones. Further, Juniper Research recently put out a report on mobile augmented reality, saying that global revenues for AR apps are expected to reach $1.5 billion by 2015. There is widespread speculation that AR will probably come into its own as a marketing tool in 2013.
We may not have to wait that long. This year has been a banner one for all things AR. AR made a splash at CES earlier this year, and early March saw the launch of Doritos Locos, with an augmented reality execution. Regarding those statistics on the growth of AR-capable devices and potential revenues for AR apps in the next few years, marketers should be paying close attention to the trajectory of this technology. Millennials, who are already used to interacting with multiple screens at a time, are as organically AR friendly an audience as one can imagine.
How can marketers take advantage of this essential technology? Wikipedia defines AR as "a live, direct or indirect, view of a physical, real-world environment whose elements are augmented by computer-generated sensory input such as sound, video, graphics or GPS data." Further, the core segments of mobile AR are six-fold: location-based search; mobile games; multimedia and entertainment; lifestyle and healthcare; education and reference; social networking and enterprise. Boeing researcher Tom Caudell coined the term Augmented Reality to describe a digital display used by aircraft electricians that blended virtual graphics onto a physical reality. Nowadays, however, AR—particularly in the case of the successful AR television campaign—involves creating an immersive digital layer over an event.
Kia's augmented reality campaign is a noteworthy case study of what can be accomplished with the technology, if done right. KIA expertly bridged the dual-screen TV and mobile device user gap for the Australian Tennis Open. The campaign connected TV and mobile with 3D content. By pointing a smartphone at the KIA logo on TV, the viewer activated the AR app that created a 3D representation of the KIA Optima. Even after the logo left the screen, the representation remained via their snap-to-screen feature extending viewer engagement. Explore Engage, which did the campaign, has said they are going to merge the concept with gaming, polling, and other interactive features.

Ease of use, as evidenced here, will be a factor in any effective AR campaign. Cable networks TNT and HGTV have been less high tech in their approach but no less effective. Incorporating QR codes in printed Valpak advertisements, they are promoting their television shows by going after their target audiences. Valpak, the direct marketer of local and national advertisements, sends "The Blue Envelope" chock filled with coupon specials to households around the country. The target demographic of TNT and HGTV shows like Rizzoli and Isles and Martha Stewart are quite coupon friendly. The AR add on to snail mail involves QR codes which can be scanned to win prizes.
What other AR elements work? Interactive augmented reality TV is already making waves in Germany, where the German science TV show Galileo uses quizzes. Again, the gaming component. We are, of course, in the early stages, but clearly snap-to-screen features, like in the KIA campaign, are effective. In the KIA campaign the viewer can change the color of the car and turn the lights on and off.
Audience emotional interest is clearly also a factor. What show is being advertised on? Advertisers will want to develop campaigns that wrap around an event—like the Australian Tennis Open, a real-time live event with more than a little audience emotional interest. Augmented reality games surrounding a television show might be the way of the future.
Finally, although Google has no immediate plans to sell ads on its Google glasses, it is hard to imagine a future in which it doesn't eventually do so. AR Glasses, which overlay information and graphics, are still in the prototype phase, are screaming out to advertisers.

General information 002. Walkthrough 003. Credits 001-General Information --------------------------------------------------------- This is a walkthrough for the game called 2 Minute Mysteries: Staircase. It is a two-minute mystery game for the iPhone, in which two detectives investigate a possible murder. This game is part of a ten game series. If you feel like contacting me about this guide, feel free to email me at email@example.com. 002-Walkthrough --------------------------------------------------------- Our detectives are investigating a dead body, found at the bottom of a staircase. It looks like the victim accidentally fell feet-first down the staircase and died. Once the detective looks over the five suspects, you have to answer two questions. 1. Was it an accident? Answer: No. 2. Correct. Select the keyword clue that proves it was not an accident. Answer: Body alignment. The detective determines that this was a murder, not an accident. If the victim had slipped and fallen feet-first, he would not have landed facedown. That's all there is to the game. As the title indicates, it only takes two minutes to finish the game. 003-Credits --------------------------------------------------------- This FAQ is copyright of The Lost Gamer, 2012.

Argued March 1, 1923
Decided March 12, 1923
A surety company organized under Illinois Rev.Stats., 1917, c. 32, § 102f, et seq., is thereby expressly made subject to the Act of April 18, 1872, governing corporations for pecuniary profit, and under § 12 of that act, its dissolution does not take away or impair any remedy given against the corporation for liabilities incurred previously to its dissolution.

Week 2 top picks: Underdog Giants, Buccaneers will win outright
Get-even week. That's Week 2 in the NFL.
It's the same for me.
My three best picks from last week went 1-2. That's not good enough.
Time to bounce back. So here's this week's three best:
Tampa Bay Buccaneers (+3) over New Orleans Saints: The Bucs seem like they are down and on their way out with all their troubles. But this is their home opener, and I like tough-minded coaches like Greg Schiano in situations like this. Look for Josh Freeman to hit some big plays down the field against the Saints defense. Bucs win in a shootout.
New York Giants (+4.5) over Denver Broncos: The Giants aren't nearly as bad as they looked in Dallas, and the Broncos aren't as good as they looked in their opener. The Giants turned it over six times and were in that Dallas game. This time, they hold onto the football and Eli Manning outduels his brother. Giants win it outright.
Carolina Panthers (-3) against Buffalo Bills: The Panthers looked horrible on offense in their opener, but I think Cam Newton will get it going here. The Carolina defensive line will keep EJ Manuel in check and force a couple of turnovers.

Moorad wishes he'd spoken up about Burrell
Looking back, maybe Jeff Moorad should have meddled. Maybe the Padres' CEO should have insisted that his baseball staff take a second look at Pat Burrell and, if necessary, a third.
Have a question for Tim?Tim Sullivan Mailbag
Maybe Moorad could have prevented the San Francisco Giants from signing the out-of-work outfielder by overruling his brain trust on behalf of a former client. Maybe the Padres lost a division title because of an excess of ethics.
"In retrospect, I wish I'd done more than relay Pat Burrell's interest in coming here." Moorad said Thursday afternoon. "I'm not going to tell (General Manager) Jed (Hoyer) what to do and I'm not going to push a particular player on him. (But) in retrospect, I wish I had raised the possibility to a different level."
Formerly Burrell's agent and still his friend, Moorad recognized a conflict of interests when the Tampa Bay Rays released the slumping slugger last May. Moorad wanted to help Burrell find work, but without overstepping his expertise or forsaking his scruples.
"I'm absolutely guilty of viewing Pat as a friend," Moorad said, "and didn't want to be the least bit heavy-handed as a result."
Pity. Despite the general consensus that Burrell's bat had slowed to an overmatched crawl, he would swat 18 home runs for the Giants in 96 games — seven of them go-ahead shots, five in the eighth inning or later — and was credited with nine game-winning RBI. Burrell provided the Giants with the kind of comprehensive pennant insurance Hoyer & Co. were seeking when they acquired Ryan Ludwick from St. Louis.
Hindsight is hell.
"Jeff was absolutely right about Pat," Hoyer said Thursday. "In hindsight, I wish he had pushed harder."
Baseball being a game of percentages rather than perfection, regrets are part of the deal. Nobody gets them all right, and among the disadvantages of a low-end payroll is that you can't always afford the risk of being wrong. The daunting financial disparity between ballclubs that are ostensibly competing with each other was hammered home Thursday when the Giants left pitcher Barry Zito and his $126 million contract off the roster for their playoff series against Atlanta.
Four days removed from his team's elimination in San Francisco, Moorad is not yet willing to watch the playoffs, and he is further distancing himself this week with a trip to Vietnam. Yet he remains "bullish" and buoyant on the subject of his ballclub, and "pleasantly pleased" at the progress he perceives in the stands at Petco Park.
"Much was made of the non-capacity crowds toward the end of the season compared to other cities," Moorad said. "I told everyone who asked: 'Look, this is a community that needs to see and believe.' I believe they've now seen a bit and they're beginning to believe. … At this point, I think the direction is clearer, if not clear, and we believe the fan base is responding."
Moorad says Padres' season tickets plunged from 15,000 to 8,600 between 2008 and 2009, so the return to 2 million in home attendance represents a meaningful step toward stability. To ensure that that trend continues in 2011, the Padres have increased the number of game-day seats available for less than $14 from 802 to 8,074. To compensate for the lost revenue of cheaper cheap seats, the club is raising the price on some of its higher-end inventory.
"I think it would be presumptuous to assume we're coming out of a recession at this point," Moorad said. "I think, if anything, this region continues to be challenged. We'll be sensitive to that as we price our options going forward."
