 == Help Wanted ==

 We're looking for dedicated and energetic people to join the fun times in the Fedora Infrastructure team. What fun stuff will you do to support and grow the Fedora community?
 * You will help Design and Implement Highly Available and Fault Tolerant Systems
 * Fix System Issues for Grateful Fedora developers
 * Maintain the Servers that make the Fedora Project possible
 * Create and Maintain Custom Tools and Applications to Automate Systems Maintenance
 * Create and Maintain Tools and Applications to Enhance and Grow the Fedora community

 The skills you should possess or be willing to learn to do this work include:
 * Being Polite
 * How to Help Fellow Hackers
 * How to Write Systems Administration Scripts
 * How to Write Web Applications
 ** We primarily use Python, SQL and Associated Technologies
 ** Other equivalent technologies are welcome
 ** We can especially use skills in this area or folks that are willing to learn
 * How the Fedora Project Works "Behind the Scenes"

 It would be great if
 * You Have Previous Systems Admin Experience
 * Have Access to Your Own Testing Machines
 **Our resources are limited, especially for testing!
 * Work in Other Areas of Fedora like Packaging or Documentation

 == Getting Started ==
 Read through the [[Infrastructure/GettingStarted#Primary_Steps | ''Primary Steps'']] to learn how to start on the path to helping the Fedora Infrastructure group and then when you're ready for more, read through the [[Infrastructure/GettingStarted#What_do_I_do_next? | ''What do I do next?'']] section.

 ===Primary Steps===

 * First you will need to read through and understand [[how to be a successful contributor]].
 * Next you will need to create a [[Infrastructure/AccountSystem| Fedora Account]]:
 ** This account will be used for just about everything you do as a member of the Fedora Community
 ** You will need it to sign the [[Legal/Licenses/CLA|CLA]] (soon this will change to the [http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Legal:Fedora_Project_Contributor_Agreement FPCA]) which is required to contribute to the Fedora Community
 ** You will need it to login to various systems associated with the Infrastructure Group
 ** You will need it to upload code changes, make changes to this wiki and etc.
 * After you have created your account and signed the CLA, you should then subscribe to the [https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/infrastructure Fedora Infrastructure Mailing List] as you will use this to send your "Hello World!" to the Fedora Infrastructure Team as well as communicate with other team members
 * When you are ready to send your [mailto:firstname.lastname@example.com introduction to the group] your subject should be 'Meeting Agenda Item: Introduction ''Your Name''' and the message body should include:
 **Your IRC handle [http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/IRCHowTo (What's this?)]
 **What skills you have to offer and which you would like to learn
 **What you would like to work on and quite possibly which [https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/report/1 outstanding issues] you would like to help resolve
 **After you send your "Hello World!" to the Fedora Infrastructure Group a greeter should respond to you on the mailing list offering to help you get started. But don't feel like you have to wait for this message, you can also join the #fedora-admin channel on IRC and ask for a greeter to help you out!

 ===What do I do next?===
 After you've completed the steps outlined in the [[Infrastructure/GettingStarted#Primary_Steps | ''Primary Steps'']] section you should

 * Regularly attend the [[Infrastructure/Meetings|Weekly Meetings]] on IRC and be sure to introduce yourself the first time you attend.
 * Take some time to learn about the [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/Services services] the Fedora Infrastructure Group develops, deploys and maintains.
 * Pick a [[Infrastructure/FIGs|FIG]] and become familiar with the team lead and members.
 * Ask about joining the Fedora Infrastructure Apprenctice (fi-apprentice) group.
 * [[Infrastructure/GettingSponsored|Get Sponsored]]. Find sponsors in the FIG you've selected and keep bugging them until someone says yes. Constantly coming back and saying I want to help says a lot but picking an [https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/report/1 item to resolve] and showing that you've researched a solution or would like to help solve it says even more!

 If you don't have the time to be involved on a regular basis at this point, please feel free to watch over things and report bugs and RFEs as you see fit. Showing interest now is a great way to make it easier to join the team's activities later!

 == How the team works ==

 The Fedora Infrastructure Group consists of volunteers and Red Hat employees. Our preferred method of communication is IRC on irc.freenode.net in #fedora-admin though we also heavily use the [http://lists.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/infrastructure Fedora Infrastructure Mailing List]. We try to be as transparent as possible though when security is involved we'll probably use our private list.

 New members are encouraged to join the list and attend a few meetings before they request sponsorship. Getting a feel for how the group works is important and should not be neglected.

Now open for RSVPs. We meet at 1:00 PM in front of the Glen Park Library which is less than one block from the Glen Park BART Station. We will have no lunch stop on this walk so I advise eating lunch before the walk. At 1:15 PM we will start walking through Glen Park and then up one of the best stairways in SF, the Harry Street Steps. Then we walk to the Diamond Heights Center for a restroom stop.
Then to the top of Twin Peaks. At an elevation of 922' it is widely believed to have SF's best views. Unfortunately, we won't have much time for the views because of a lack of restrooms on/near Twin Peaks.
Then we walk to Noe Valley and Castro Heights. We will see the street where part of the 1948 classic movie "I Remember Mama" was filmed. We will have good restroom stops and many stairways on our route to our endpoint: the 24th Street BART Station at 5:30 PM.
We will not be having dinner at Aslam's Rasoi as we did on the past walks because their ratings with the SF Health Department have fallen.
All photos below are all shown in the correct order of this walk's route. Below is on Laidley St. on the way to the Harry St. Steps.

I just completed the Twin Peaks walk and had a fantastic time. I met great people. I viewed the beautiful City from vantage points that I wouldn't have been exposed to otherwise. I got exercise. Howard does a wonderful job. I'll not make the next two jaunts, but I plan to join up for the Nob Hill walk.

I agree with Tim. Howard, you do a great job of putting these walks/hikes together. You put so much organization into them, it's unbelievable! Before the hikes, not only do you give "big group warnings" when appropriate, but you also give us the weather forecast. - If people can't/don't read your communications, it's "their problem", not yours or the group's. Those who want to complain, despite your warnings, perhaps should merely stay home...of course, you're too nice to suggest that.
0 · July 8, 2012
I gave a "big group warning" about this walk so people who would complain about this particular walk having too many people would not show up. We have had many walks with much smaller numbers. Our next walk now has less than 30 "Yes" RSVPs & on average only half of the "Yes" RSVPs show up. According to my records "DivNam" has never shown up to any of my walks. I would like to correct my records if "DivNam" attended this walk or any other walk. I could charge more money to get fewer people.
0 · July 8, 2012
Howard, I love hiking with your large groups, and I also like the social aspects of your group. When I do the Bay to Breakers, I don't want to slow down to smell the roses - when I hike with your group, I get the chance to exercise AND smell the roses.
0 · July 8, 2012
I can see why DivNam and Lois feel as they do, but Howard, I heartily encourage you to keep on hosting these meetups in whatever way suits you best. The day you tire of fielding criticisms and complaints is the day your 4,700 group members get to look for an organizer a fraction as reliable and conscientious as you have been.
0 · July 8, 2012
Howard thanks for organizing this, it was great. Just a suggestion if I may, you should try not to have more then 30-40 ppl in the group. else the pace becomes too slow, and much longer breaks. IMHO

A wonderful walk. Somewhat strenuous but worth the effort. Howard did a great job organizing and planning. Will definitely attend other walks with this group.

Thanks Howard! This hike was definitely a favorite!!
0 · July 7, 2012
Thank you very much, Howard. We enjoyed it a lot and really appreciated the work you did to plan this walk. We saw parts of San Fran we would never have visited on our own. Looking forward to the next walk.
0 · July 7, 2012
Another great walk, Howard! Thank you.

Howard is a wonderful leader and should get the $2 to help pay for the website, etc.

I should also mention that my walks are not random walks. They are carefully composed to give the best views, visit historic places and the best flowers when they are in bloom. I make sure that we visit the best restrooms, properly spaced. I have so many different walks that they are timed for the months when they are the best. For example, during the rainy season we cut the walks back to half & do our "5 Free Museums Walk." During December I turn into Santa Claus & lead us on free X-mas walks.
0 · July 5, 2012
The $2 is to pay me back for paying for the web site plus my expenses and a partial compensation for my time & work. I put as much work & time into my walks as a part time job. I have never not shown up to any of my 232 walks. Commercial walking groups charge as much as $45 to $50 per person per walk. Even non profit groups are charging $15 per person. You might find a free walking group but you also might find that they are not so good such as only showing up about half the time.
0 · July 5, 2012
as a new member of this group, I was wondering what the $2.00 covers?
0 · July 5, 2012
Hi Julie, Though I think this is a very hard walk I also think that someone in average physical condition can do this walk. We will walk up slowly as I am a slow walker. The first time we did this walk 8/28/10 we had 2 kids in the group & I believe the ages were 4 & 5 who were among the first ones to reach the top. You can actually see them as little dots on the top of the photo above here that has the date 8/28/10. Little kids as young as 5 or 4 can really show us up going uphill.

16 Tasting Notes
Our reblend of the Maple Cheesecake is finally ready to be tasted and packaged! Yay! I've been looking forward to this all week.
Mmm! So good! Rich and maple-y! I adjusted the recipe just a bit to increase the maple just a bit because … maple. (Hopefully that requires no additional explanation.)
I went back to recheck my notes on the first batch of Maple Cheesecake Ti Kwan Yin and I think that this batch is very similar to my experience back then: a sweet, full-flavored Oolong base with nutty notes that complement the tangy cheesecake flavor and a really lovely maple-y flavor. I really am happy with this one!
So I'm borrowing this 'tea' listing because I'm currently taste testing my initial sampling of a tea that will be one of the teas of the week next month. And so I can't tell you what the tea is – but it's really yummy and I'm excited about it.
I hope you guys like this one as much as I do.
I'm taste testing this tea right now from the reblend I created for the Kickstarter Campaign incentives.
It's good. Nice blackberry flavor – lovely cream notes. I like my great big blackberries that I found for this.
I've learned a lot while blending/packaging this tea: I need bigger pouches for certain teas. I can't fit 1 1/2 ounces of this tea in a 2 ounce pouch … so everyone who ordered 1 1/2 ounces of this tea will receive a large pouch and a small pouch because there's no getting 1 1/2 ounces in that pouch without crushing the leaves into dust. As one who respects the leaf, I just can't do that.
I've also decided that while the shou mei tea is alright, for future blends (and reblends) I will be using a white peony. I like this shou mei but I like white peony better. Yeah, it costs more (quite a bit more, actually) but as someone who is a tea snob, it's worth it.
That said, this is a good tea. The blackberry flavor is well-defined and I love the berry tingle at the finish. The cream notes soften the tart-y notes of the blackberry nicely. It's sweet and yummy and I like this a lot.
PS: I also learned that LiberTEAS rated this tea previously and I can't change LiberTEAS rating using my 52Teas account.
Some teas do demand a lot of space. I had some Chinese snow buds that I couldnt fit even 15u in a 7×1×5 package
I'm drinking my reblend of this right now. I can't believe I didn't take a picture of it – that's two black teas in a row that I've not taken photos of!
Anyway, this is really good. I think it's important to note that an ample cool time on this tea is necessary. When piping hot, it's a wee bit astringent. I let it cool about six minutes, and it was still just a tad astringent and the flavors were not real focused yet, so another five minutes cool time brought the tea to a really lovely sipping temperature that was warm, not hot, but not cold either. Warm and cozy and easy to drink.
The astringency has smoothed its way out now and the flavors have come into focus. A nice pumpkin-y note with a tangy cheesecake flavor. The caramel isn't as strong as I'd like it to be so I'll make note of that on the recipe for future reblends. I think in the future, I'll also add a touch of spice because I find myself wanting a hint of nutmeg and cinnamon here, just to enhance the pumpkin.
Overall, it's good, but it can be improved upon, I think.
So, i'm taste testing this one now. It's quite good, even if I do say so myself. I get a creamy, sweet coconut note with just enough of that slick-y coconut texture that I like when it comes to coconut teas. And the cheesecake notes are tangy, sweet, and creamy. I get a hint of buttery crust that is enhanced with the natural nutty tones of the honeybush.
PS: I'm using a different honeybush for the honeybush blends than Frank was using. I know that there were some complaints about his honeybush … I really like the supplier that I found for honeybush. It's organic and it has a really good flavor. Honeybush still isn't my favorite thing out there – I certainly prefer camellia sinensis, but it's a nice caffeine free option.
Reblend: I just brewed up a cup of this. I had to test the batch!
It's quite yummy (if I do say so myself). The marshmallow and pineapple notes are prominent throughout the sip and the lime pops toward the finish and lingers in the aftertaste. As the tea continues to cool, the lime becomes stronger and I start to pick up on barely there hints of maraschino cherry.
I don't know if it tastes as good as I remember that very first batch tasting way back when it first was released. But it's really, really good. I'm quite happy with it.

Education levels and unemployment at end of 2008
April 01, 2009
In 2008, individuals with less education experienced greater percentage-point increases in their unemployment rates than their more educated counterparts did.
The unemployment rate for individuals 25 years and older with less than a high school diploma increased from 7.5 percent in the fourth quarter of 2007 to 10.6 percent in the fourth quarter of 2008. The jobless rate for high school graduates with no college rose by 2.4 percentage points, to 7.0 percent, the highest quarterly rate since the series began in 1992.
The unemployment rate for those with some college or an associate's degree increased by 2.0 percentage points, to 5.5 percent. Among college graduates, the unemployment rate increased by 1.2 percentage points, to 3.3 percent, equal to the previous peak in the fourth quarter of 1992.
These data are from the Current Population Survey. For more information on labor market trends in 2008, see "U.S. labor market in 2008: economy in recession," (PDF) by James Marschall Borbely, Monthly Labor Review, March 2009.

Tuesday's game: RedHawks 10, Reno 4
RedHawks 10, Reno 4
The RedHawks early offensive woes of late went away quick, as they scored five first-inning runs en route to a big win over Reno in the opener of a four-game series Tuesday in front of 3,776 at AT&T Bricktown Ballpark.
The RedHawks took advantage of three walks by Aces starter Cesar Valdez to jump up big early.
After Valdez walked three of the first four batters he faced, Hernan Iribarren delivered a two-run double and then Max Ramirez followed with a three-run home run.
The RedHawks scored in each of the first four innings to jump up 7-1. In their previous three games, the RedHawks had scored just two runs in the first four innings.
The team used a group of relievers to get through the game as Zach Phillips started for the first time this season and pitched three scoreless innings.
Phillips extended his scoreless streak to 12 2/3 innings over all or part of his last nine appearances.
Michael Kirkman, who had been a starter until recently, made his second relief appearance of the season, giving up a home run to the first batter he faced. But Kirkman (13-3) bounced back nicely, throwing four innings and not allowing another run while striking out six.
Pitching shake up
Phillips' start was necessitated by the possibility that Rich Harden could make a rehab start for the RedHawks in Tuesday's game.
RedHawks manager Bobby Jones waited until not long before the game to announce Phillips as the starter.
The Fort Worth Star Telegram reported the change in plans for Harden was not due to a physical setback.
Harden was placed on the Rangers' disabled list Sunday, retroactive to Aug. 8, with right shoulder tendinitis.
Harden could start for the RedHawks later in the series.
It would be Harden's second rehab stint with the RedHawks this year. Last month, Harden went 0-2 with a 5.19 ERA in four starts.
His first and final starts were solid but he struggled in the two middle appearances.
Holland to Texas
Starter Derek Holland is expected to officially rejoin the Rangers today to start in place of Harden after Tommy Hunter was pushed forward a day.
It would be Holland's first start with the Rangers since May 30, when he left Texas' game after one inning with inflammation in his rotator cuff.
Holland was assigned to the RedHawks for a rehab assignment in late July, but was optioned to the RedHawks a few days later after the team acquired Cliff Lee.
Holland has been 2-1 with a 4.00 ERA in his latest stint with the team.
Guillermo Moscoso, who was to start Tuesday's game, will start tonight. The RedHawks starters for Friday and Saturday have not been announced.
Cora to join team today
The Rangers signed infielder Alex Cora to a minor league contract and assigned him to the RedHawks on Tuesday.
Cora is expected to join the team today.
The veteran played 62 games for the Mets before being released earlier this month.
With Joaquin Arias' struggles in the field recently and Ian Kinsler's return not imminent, Cora might quickly wind up with the Rangers.
Short hops
Reno manager Brett Butler played college baseball at Southeastern Oklahoma State. Butler is wearing a boot on his right foot after breaking his leg recently.... Tanner Scheppers struggled with his control in pitching the eighth inning, giving up three runs on three hits and walking three.... Outfielder James Tomlin recorded his first Triple-A hit with a fourth-inning single.... Brandon McCarthy could start for the RedHawks on Friday or Saturday.... The RedHawks did not have a hit after the fourth inning.... After catching five innings in Monday's game as he started a rehab assignment, Matt Treanor did not play.
Up next
Reno (RH Kevin Mulvey, 6-8, 4.85) at RedHawks (RH Guillermo Moscoso, 7-5, 5.26), 7:05 tonight

Contamination scare at Crumlin Children's Hospital
Some 18 children are affected after instrument found to be infected
Crumlin Children's Hospital is continuing its attempts to contact the families of 18 children who are involved in a contamination scare at the hospital.
Our Lady's Children's Hospital Crumlin, Dublin was last night attempting to contact the families of 18 children who are involved in a contamination scare at the hospital.
The issue at the hospital arose on Saturday, July 6th when staff became aware of "a microbiological growth" on a colonoscope following routine sterilisation. Colonoscopes are instruments with which colonoscopies are performed to examine the inside of the bowel.
A spokeswoman for the hospital said the instrument in question was "immediately quarantined" and tests were then carried out on all scopes.
The growth on the scope which caused concern was identified as an ESBL or extended spectrum beta lactamases, which are bugs that live in the bowel. The hospital said there was "no immediate impact" on children's health.
ESBLs are produced by bacteria to combat the threat posed to them by the rise in use of antibiotics. They in effect break down the commoner antibiotics and can make infections more difficult to treat.
The hospital said last night it "immediately" began to trace children who had colonoscopies using this particular scope between May 17th and July 5th. Some 18 patients were identified – and of these 15 families have been notified. There are three remaining families who have not been contacted yet because they have not answered their phones.
Follow-up letters, an information pack and a sample testing kit is being issued to each family – and they will be "immediately" notified of results, said the spokeswoman.
"If any child is found to be positive, the hospital will arrange to meet the family and will provide them with all the necessary information and support." A positive screen "has no immediate impact" for patients, she added, but it may affect the first line antibiotics chosen to treat the child if they show signs of infection.
The hospital apologised for any distress caused.
A consultant microbiologist told The Irish Times last night that if an infection develops, ESBL producing bacteria makes it "very much more difficult to treat". For most patients, they do not cause infection - but this can occur for patients when they need intensive care or while receiving chemotherapy.
"The complexity of what you're doing is increased," he said. "Patients may not respond as well, and you may not know what you're dealing with, so you may lose some time in terms of getting the patient on the right treatment."

The Love Me, Love Mum artwall by Curtis Kulig that was on display at Pavilion KL.
In conjunction with Mother's Day, Curtis Kulig did a special art installation together with LeSportsac.
AS far as grand gestures go, nothing says "I love mum" quite like having a special art installation constructed for the occasion. That is exactly what Curtis Kulig had done in conjunction with Mother's Day.
The 33-year-old American street artist was in Kuala Lumpur recently, during which he met with the media and fans. In a meet-and-greet session, he spoke on how proud he is to visit the city.
The Love Me, Love Mum installation is his first foray into the Malaysian art scene. It is part of an artistic fusion between accessories brand LeSportsac and New York-based Kulig.
LeSportsac's ongoing collaboration with Kulig has resulted in a partnership with Pavilion Kuala Lumpur as the host for the introduction to an exclusive Summer 2014 collection inspired by the notable Love Me artwork. Love Me began in 2005 as a personal sentiment and quickly evolved into an icon, with Kulig's simple, impulsive, two-word manifesto spotted in cities ranging from Paris to Istanbul, Los Angeles to Berlin.
A fast-rising star, Kulig's signature Love Me scrawl has also appeared as the opening credits on variety television series Saturday Night Live. In 2011, Kulig unveiled the story behind Love Me on TedxTeen, inspiring audiences with his work.
Kulig created a series of original designs for LeSportsac that range from playful watercolours and swirly scripts to bright, bold marks of his signature statement. He reportedly drew his inspiration from classic New York summer hotspots. – Bervin Cheong
The Love Me collection is now available at LeSportsac in Pavilion Kuala Lumpur.

David Ligare: California Classicist October 18, 2015-January 17, 2016 The art of David Ligare (born 1945) is based on the classical principals of beauty and order. He is an idealist rather than a realist, one who seeks originality in our origins rather than our innovations.

The Canyon Project: Artivism! October 18, 2015-January 17, 2016 Artists Jerry Burchfield (1948–2009) and Mark Chamberlain (born 1942) considered Laguna Canyon to be crucial to the identity of their hometown of Laguna Beach. In 1980, aware that the canyon was being threatened by development, the two artists committed to a long-term project to rally the cause to protect the canyon through activism.

Phil Dike: The Wave and Malibu Set Series, 1968–1981 From the collection of Diane and E. Gene Crain June 28-October 4, 2015 In the 1960s, artist Phil Dike began to focus on semiabstract interpretations of the sea, the beach, and beach life. The E.

Marcia Hafif: From the Inventory
Marcia Hafif: From the Inventory June 28-September 27, 2015 Marcia Hafif emerged in the 1970s as a key figure among artists searching for ways of painting beyond abstraction. She directed her work to a study of pigments and their material supports, which led to single-color paintings made in series and intended to be installed in such a way that each wall and each exhibition becomes a work of art in itself. She has said, "I don't make paintings so much as I make installations." Born in … [Read more...]
Robert Henri's California: Realism, Race, and Region, 1914-1925
Robert Henri's California: Realism, Race, and Region, 1914-1925 February 22–May 31, 2015 The legendary American painter Robert Henri made his first plans to visit California just over a century ago. "Westward Ho!" he exclaimed in 1914 in a letter to his former student, Alice Klauber, who lived in San Diego. Henri's eagerness was rooted in his quest for new settings and fresh subjects. "I am now quite convinced that San Diego is one of the most interesting and beautiful places in the world … [Read more...]

I apologize for not putting much effort. This might not be a good game, but at least it isn't the worst Pokemon Game. Thanks for the cheering up. However, I might need help starting a third project, but I will continue to improve Chocolate Green as much as I can, even though I'll need a brief tutorial on how to create a game that people will actually enjoy. I understand, but I'll need a lot of pointers before starting a successor to Chocolate Green. If anyone has any ideas for a new project, PM me.
EDIT: In search of a team and a master for a new project coming up, Pokemon Moon White, progress on Chocolate Green will slow down, much to the dismay of the community. All 649 Pokemon are to be catchable in Pokemon Moon White in some way shape or form, like in Chocolate Green. This may be pushing it, but that's where a whole team comes in. As the team leader, I have developed a developer's kit for a start. Carry on, though I will not post anything else about Moon White on this thread.
Pokemon Virus Lavender has been delayed to include Generation VI Pokémon. Download the

6 Foot 7 Foot Lil Wayne Lyrics: So Not for Kids, but OK for SNL! (Video)Emma Brady
Lil Wayne is back! The rapper hit the stage on last night's episode of Saturday Night Liveto perform his latest single, 6′ 7′, in a joint performance with Eminem.
Even though he cleaned up the language some for the network performance the song is still not for kids!
Watch Lil Wayne's SNL Performance of 6′ 7'….
Lil Wayne's performance of 6'7′ was full of subtle pauses instead of in your face obscenities. Even though he cleaned it up a bit, the 6'7′ Lil Wayne lyrics are definitely not intended for younger viewers. If you want a performance that you can share with the kids, check out the Jeff Bridges duet of Silver Bells with Sesame Street's Cookie Monster.

Chinese SMES and Information Technology Adoption
Fong, Michelle W. L., Issues in Informing Science & Information Technology
SMEs constitute an important economic sector in China because they are significant sources of wealth and employment. Although the individual contribution of a SME to the national economy may appear relatively insignificant when compared to a large corporation, the aggregate contribution of all SMEs can be sizeable. For example, the average main business revenue of a Chinese SME was seven times less than that of a large Chinese enterprise in 2007 but together all SMEs accounted for more than 50% of the country's GDP (Yearbook of China SMEs, 2008). The importance of this economic sector is also highlighted by its growing presence within the newly-emerged market economy. There were about 8 million Chinese SMEs in the late 1990s, and they have now grown to more than 40 million entities, representing over 99% of the total number of enterprises. In addition, these enterprises provided more than 75% of employment in the economy in 2008.
However, SMEs tend to have a higher mortality rate than larger corporations, and researches have variously associated their business failure with insufficient productivity, competitiveness, business and management skills, financing and access to proper advice and information, and with lost export and business development opportunities (Freland & Morris, 1976; Jennings & Beaver, 1997; Koh & Maguire, 2004; Koh & Simpson, 2005; Patterson, Kozmetsky, & Ridgway, 1983; Watson, 2003; Wichmann, 1983). At the same time, these SMEs tend to be slow in adopting and exploiting IT as a means of enhancing their sustainability.
In spite of the information technology productivity paradox not being entirely resolved by way of empirical verification (The IT productivity paradox refers to the failure of the advancement in computer technology and its expected benefits to be fully reflected in the productivity statistics at the firm and national aggregate levels.), there has been increasing evidence of positive contributions from information technology (Brynjolfsson & Hitt, 1995, 1996; Hitt & Brynjolfsson, 1996; Lee & Barua, 1999; Lichtenberg, 1995; Silvius, 2006). In addition, evidence of increasing adoption of IT by firms (ITU, 2009) implies a widespread belief in the business disadvantages of not doing so. Therefore, it appears vital for these SMEs to adopt IT in order to keep up with an IT-based business and market environment.
Businesses have adopted IT to optimize business processes such as planning, control, collaboration and communication, addressing information needs and internal operations and expectations, making timely and informed decisions, and implementing business strategies. Other reasons for adopting IT in business processes include improving financial performance and operational efficiency (Barua, Konana, Whinston, & Yin, 2004; Johnson & Scholes, 1993), attaining flexibility and agility in responding to increased market pressure and changes (Gosain, Malhotra & El Sawy, 2004; Snow, Miles, & Coleman, 1992;), achieving competitive advantage (King, Grover, & Hufnagel, 1989; Monteiro & Macdonald, 1996; Porter & Miller, 1985; Rackoff, Wiseman, & Ulrich, 1985), participating in new forms of alliances enabled by electronic linkages such as virtual organisations, supplier-customer value-chains, company networks, and collaborative networks (Bala & Venkatesh, 2007; Camarinha-Matos & Afsarmanesh, 2005; Davidow & Malone, 1992; Gulati, 1998; Lee, Pak, & Lee, 2003; Mowshowitz, 1997; Walton & Miller, 1995; Wei & Wang, 2010) and participating in new market structures, such as the virtual market or electronic marketplace, to expand business opportunities (Koh & Simpson, 2005; Stockdale & Standing, 2004).
Information technology (IT) has indeed changed the dynamics of running businesses. The proper application of information technology and the use of information systems may offer opportunities for SMEs to overcome some of the aforementioned barriers and to improve their survivability in a competitive environment. …

As the founder of Time, Fortune, and Life magazines, Henry Luce changed the way we consume news and the way we understand our world. Born the son of missionaries, Luce spent his childhood in rural China, yet he glimpsed a milieu of power altogether different at Hotchkiss and later at Yale. While working at a Baltimore newspaper, he and Brit Hadden conceived the idea of Time: a "news-magazine" that would condense the week's events in a format accessible to increasingly busy members of the middle class. They launched it in 1923, and young Luce quickly became a publishing titan. In 1936, after Time's unexpected success-and Hadden's early death-Luce published the first issue of Life, to which millions soon subscribed. Historian Alan Brinkley shows how Luce reinvented the magazine industry in just a decade. The appeal of Life seemingly cut across the lines of race, class, and gender. Luce himself wielded influence hitherto unknown among journalists. By the early 1940s, he had come to see his magazines as vehicles to advocate for America's involvement in the escalating international crisis, in the process popularizing the phrase "World War II." In spite of Luce's great success, happiness eluded him. His second marriage-to the glamorous playwright, politician, and diplomat Clare Boothe-was a shambles. Luce spent his later years in isolation, consumed at times with conspiracy theories and peculiar vendettas. The Publisher tells a great American story of spectacular achievement-yet it never loses sight of the public and private costs at which that achievement came.
About the Author
In addition to being a best selling textbook author, ALAN BRINKLEY is the Allan Nevins Professor of History and former Provost at Columbia University. He is the author of Voices of Protest: Huey Long, Father Coughlin, and the Great Depression, which won the 1983 National Book Award; The End of Reform: New Deal Liberalism in Recession and War; and Liberalism and its Discontents. His most recent books are "John F. Kennedy: The American Presidents Series: The 35th President, 1961-1963" and "The Publisher: Henry Luce and His American Century" both published recently. He was educated at Princeton and Harvard and taught previously at MIT, Harvard, and the City University Graduate School before joining the Columbia faculty In 1991. In 1998-1999, he was the Harmsworth Professor of American History at Oxford University. He won the Joseph R. Levenson Memorial Teaching Award at Harvard in 1987 and the Great Teacher Award at Columbia in 2003. He is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, a member of the board of trustees of the National Humanities Center and Oxford University Press, and chairman of the board of trustees of the Century Foundation. He has been a visiting professor at Princeton, the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales (Paris), and the University of Torino (Italy). He was the 1998-1999 Harmsworth Professor of American History at Oxford University.
Sean Runnette, a multiple "AudioFile" Earphones Award winner, has produced several Audie Award winning audiobooks and has also narrated works by John Steinbeck and Richard P. Feynman. Of his performance of "The Courage to be Free", "AudioFile" Magazine wrote "Runnette s tender approach to every sentence and paragraph helps the author s wisdom glow. Along with the understated power of the author s writing, Runnette s performance makes this one of the most arresting and thought-provoking audiobooks available today." He is a member of the American Repertory Theater company and has toured internationally with Mabou Mines, an avant-garde theater company. Sean's television and film appearances include "Two If by Sea", "Copland", "Sex and the City", "Law & Order", "Third Watch."
Praise For…
"Mr Brinkley has an eye for both the telling detail and the broad sweep of Luce's role as the man who saw the need for a national news magazine and foresaw the American century." ---The Economist

Hi, first time trying to alter anything and I really wanted a ditto in the game (Light platinum, if it matters). So after failing dismally to replace another pokemon with it (Although whilst we're here...*) I decided that the easiest thing to do was to take another genderless pokemon and out it in the ditto egg group. I chose driftbloon, put it into the daycare with a variety of male and female pokemon and got a load of eggs but when then hatched they were "??????????" and a bunch of nonsense.
Also I have played through this rom before with no issues but now certain pokemon/trainers freeze the game for about 30s when entering battle. Not game breaking just annoying.
What did I do wrong? Is there any way to fix it?
Thanks for any help.
(P.S. Whilst we're here I'm sure this has been asked a bajillion times but paint deletes my pallete and colour settings >> sprites don't work, easy workaround?)

Update on SantosSantos is married and has three school age children; they all live in his own, two-bedroom house located in the city of La Paz's Achachicala zone.
Santos is a barber and works more than 12 hours daily in his barber shop since what he earns is used to pay for food, schooling and basic utility costs for his family. He needs the loan to expand and increase his barber shop's capital purchasing hair clippers for different haircuts and hair styles; with this he hopes to improve his income to improve his quality of life.
Santos' dream is to build more rooms onto his house to provide more comfort for his family. Santos has been an IMPRO client since 1999 and this is his third time with KIVA.

Additional Information
About IMPROIMPRO is a small non-profit organization that has been offering micro credit to the working poor in the Bolivian cities of La Paz and El Alto since 1995. IMPRO's goal is to fight poverty by offering loans to small business owners who cannot access credit through the regular banking system due to a lack of guarantees or collateral.
To ensure that everyone has access to credit, IMPRO maintains a low interest rate by minimizing operational costs. IMPRO's partnership with Kiva, which began in 2007, has allowed IMPRO to expand its services while maintaining these low interest rates.
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Taking, collecting, and uploading photos of borrowers is one of the most challenging elements of using Kiva for our Field Partners. In order to make Kiva easier for Field Partners to use, we have allowed them to post successive and concurrent loans without taking a new photo of the borrower if the criteria above are met.

Is Brendan allowed a mistake?
Herps I blame the players for that debacle. And a very spirited Oldham side who dug in and defended well.
Jones had a shocker in goal, clearly lacking confidence. Borini anonymous too and our set piece defending appalling. That really is an area that BR needs to address. BR had to rotate with Wednesday in mind and to be honest I was surprised to see Suarez start but in hindsight we needed him.
We still lack creativity, resorting to hopeful long range pit shots too often which usually end up in the stands.
At the end of the day you just have to hand it to Oldham. They earned it......Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies

well when Bucky talked of" fourth" I was hoping he meant league position, but it seems he meant that will be the round in which we'll exit both domestic cups!
And as we seem to about to sign another "moneyball"player as opposed to an experienced "matchwise" one can I suggest that if bucky is so obsessed with youth why not go and manage in the nextgen?
Yeah...you got it nearly spot on Abu....we did hand it to Oldham,... they were gifted it, and as much as we can point a finger at this player and that player, ultimately the "buck" stops with the guy who calls the shots....the Manager. The team selection caught me out 'cos I was expecting a solid defence but with no Suarez or Sturridge in the usual hope that if we are chasing the game we can wheel the big guns out late on. What I didnt expect was a defence comprising a lot of youngsters pitched in against an Ale House team of hard running bruisers with just Martin Skirtl trying to bring a sembelance of order to proceedings. This sort of "banana skin" encounter was taylor made for Carra but he was left back for the day...on the bench. Shelvey too should have been on 'cos he also seems to know how to handle himself when the going gets rough, and we really did get roughed up a lot. In fact the tables were only turned when Gerrard, Downing and Shelvey came on, rather too belatedly in my opinion. Yeah Brendan is allowed to make mistakes, but FFS what I really cannot accept is him slating the "young guns" in public whilst doing the "Pontus Pilate" and washing his hands of any involvement by himself in this sad affair. If he was man enough to accept his portion of responsibility for this debacle I might find myself able to cut him some slack on the grounds that he's a young manager and we are in transition etc etc. At least we now have a very, very diminished set of targets to aim at which should hopefully ensure our players and manager now remain focused for the rest of the year, and the players do not become over tired by being in too many competitions. Is 7th in the Prem and a decent run in the Europa too much to hope for? I hope not but I've got to say that after todays publicly pronounced "dont blame me" attitude Brendan Rodgers has very little credit left in my book.

Reviews for The Arc Of Butte County
I am a local professional and avid supporter of ARC. The "slightly used" clothing, antique furniture, books, and other offerings at their well stocked stores offer a welcome opportunity for me and my friends to donate to support their mission to serve the needs of thousands of individuals and their families in our local community. A single item purchase goes a long way to helping enrich the lives of many in need.

A member of the Philadelphia Coalition that called for justice in the slayings of James Chaney, Michael Schwerner and Andrew Goodman over a year ago, was the guest speaker at Monday's meeting of the Meridian Rotary Club.
Jim Prince is also editor and publisher of the Neshoba Democrat. He said there are good things happening in Philadelphia, and some of it is because of open dialogue about the past.
"There has been a lot of interest in coming to Mississippi since the conclusion of the trial and I think in east central Mississippi we have a lot of opportunity to embrace that past and acknowledge it, and to educate people about our past and about what we're doing now," said Prince. "There are so many good things we do that are going on and we have good relations, and that is something we can hold on up."
Prince said there is hard work ahead for Philadelphia in the area of economic growth, but he said the area has the opportunity and the infrastructure to make things happen.

does anyone know of ways to rid bugs from the soil of potted plants i had outdoors but need to come inside for the winter?
Outdoor potted plants brought indoors for winter?
I have always used a mix of dawn dish detergent and water I run it through the soil after a watering and let it set a couple of days then bring them in and have never had a issue
Very good idea to check your plants before they come inside....my daughter's friend had a small snake appear on her kitchen floor which came out of her outdoor plant!
probly in the soil-- so reot it before bringing it into house , and add chili poweder into the soil,,,, this will get rid of any bug except those with egg sacs,,,,

Isis Brown of Hanover Township was charged with Homicide in the beating death of her 78 year old aunt Dorothy Koreny. The attack happened in the early morning hours of March 28th at the home they shared at 33 Solomon Street in Hanover Township. Koreny survived the attack and told police that Brown shoved her over a railing on the front porch and threw household items on top of her. Koreny died on April 8th from severe trauma to her face and head. The attack was recorded by a neighbor's security camera. Sheldon Arnold installed the camera after repeated problems with Brown. Arnold told Eyewitness News, "It is horrifying and gut wrenching to see what happened right here. I hope we can move forward as a neighborhood." Mary Anne Revit lives four doors away from the Koreny home and added, "I am no longer afraid to walk on the road because you never knew if Brown was going to driver her car right at you." Koreny said noting as she left the courtroom of District Judge Joe Halesey in Hanover Township Thursday morning. She remains locked up and will have a hearing in several weeks.

Glenn Hofmann brings over 20 years of collegiate athletics experience into his first year as Executive Associate Athletic Director for External Relations at VCU.
Along with years of experience, he also brings a long relationship with Director of Athletics Ed McLaughlin, after working together for three years at Niagara University.
"I am grateful for the opportunity to re-connect with Ed McLaughlin and join his staff at VCU," Hofmann said. "There has never been a more exciting time to be a part of VCU Athletics and the larger university community, and I look forward to building upon the remarkable momentum that has transformed this institution into a national leader in athletics, academics and community impact."

During his tenure at Merrimack, Hofmann completed a major renovation to Lawler Arena, increased fundraising by 27%, ticket sales by 243%, hockey attendance by 310%, had three teams win conference championships, seven teams qualify for NCAA Tournaments and raised the department's grade point average to a 3.0, which was higher than that of the general student body. Under Hofmann's leadership, Merrimack's NCAA Division I hockey team qualified for the NCAA Tournament for the first time in school history, and achieved a No. 1 ranking in 2011.
Prior to Merrimack, Hofmann served as associate athletics director, external affairs at Niagara, where he managed and mentored coaches, staff and students; generated new and increased revenue streams; and assisted in all facets of strategic planning, implementation, budgeting and personnel for their NCAA Division I program. A strong fundraiser, Hofmann developed and directed the athletic strategic fundraising plan that resulted in a ten percent increase in annual fundraising and a 21% increase in donors. Under Hofmann's direction, the overall athletics department external revenue increased by 41% over a two-year period.
Hofmann also served as associate athletics director, external relations at Lehigh University from 1998 to 2005. Prior to that position, he served as assistant athletics director, communications and marketing; and sports information director at Lehigh.
Hofmann has a master of arts in sports management from East Stroudsburg University and a bachelor of arts in mass communications from St. Bonaventure University. He also successfully completed the NACDA Sports Management Institute program and served as an adjunct professor of sports management at Merrimack College, Niagara University and DeSales College.

I bought this as a gift, I do not play guitar much but am from a family of musicians. I got this along with dunlop strap locks. which worked perfectly together. The strap has a nice smooth backing which should help my brother do his tricks & tailwhips. The expander clasp is a very nice smooth chrome clasp which will glide easily as well.

1) professional jobs are out of the option and ridiculously high priced in my opinion!
2) I want to paint my bike, my friend just got an awesome air compressor, so I was planning on getting an HVLP SPRAY gun to paint it up
I'm trying to figure out what paint I should use? I'm pretty sure you use automotive paint, but the only brand I find online is House of Kolor, which using would defeat the purpose of DIY because it's so expensive. I basically want to paint the bike a cream color and the lugs orange (I'm going to paint the lugs not by hand). What type of paints exist? and Where do you buy them? And do you use spray can primer or prime via the gun? How much do these paints cost and how much do you need to do a frame/fork?

Ratings and TOP5 - calculations for a location became rather strange recently and when-ever a tip is not rated at all for 6 or more months, the ratings will be downgraded automatically by 2 or even more red stars.
--- --- --- --- --- ---
And then it could be that the "best page" about a location might have just 4 simple tips with some recent ratings while a good page with 12 good tips drops down to #15 within a short time, simply because people think, when a tip has 4-5 red stars anyway, it does not need any more ratings....

Students studying in Middleton Library should not be completely surprised if the building is raided by an armed swat team during the month of May.
LSU Police Department representatives worked with local Baton Rouge agencies on Wednesday to begin planning a campus-wide active shooter drill, said LSUPD Spokesman Capt. Cory Lalonde.
The main focus of the drill is to help prepare departments involved for a real situation on campus involving a shooter and other violent situations.
Lalonde said the drill will take place on the morning of May 20 around 8 a.m. and cease around noon. The drill will focus heavily on the area of Middleton Library, with the library being the central point of the drill.
One of the main things those involved with the drill have had to focus on is making it seem as realistic as possible, Lalonde said.
Lalonde said the drill will also feature "roleplayers" who will act as victims, witnesses and possible suspects.
Because the finer details of the scenario will remain unknown to the response parties involved, the agencies participating in the drill have formed groups consisting of multiple individuals from each agency that share similar job positions to strengthen communication and problem solving techniques.
"Those involved will only be given basic info as the events unfold," Lalonde said. "This will test how we work together as a unit to solve a particular problem."
Outside agencies from the Baton Rouge area such as Baton Rouge Police Department and Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center will be participating to drive the sense of realism even further. The drill will also see participation from government agencies such as the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the FBI.
"We want to look at the capabilities of all responding units and figure out how to coordinate those units accordingly to get the most effective response in that type of incident." Lalonde said.
Lalonde said preparing for an incident of this nature is crucial because law enforcements agencies never know when or where an incident such as this may occur.

Advanced Natural skin care combines the latest and most advanced scientific formulations with the most luxurious natural ingredients to offer an exclusive and extensive range of products to heal, treat and revive your skin. Advanced Natural Products are toxin and petrochemical free and Australian made!
Advanced Natural was born from a simple desire: to provide all natural, highly effective beauty treatments and natural skin care products for all women and men.
The ingredients of our products are found in nature and (where possible) are organically grown. We use homeopathic remedies as a basis for our products, using the ancient and proven powers that men and women have benefitted from for centuries.
Homeopathics are used to breakdown the molecular structure, allowing the molecules to infuse deeper into the skin cell-forming substructure without the use of a pore or hair follicle. A restructuring response is initiated within the cells at this deep level, creating healthy new cells that are brought to the surface layers of the individual's skin.
Resurfacing Treatment Mask
Refines the skin, reduces pore size, brightens uneven skin colour, smoothes uneven skin texture, and scars, plumps lines and wrinkles progressively over five days of treatment application.
Trish Ivey – Salon Owner
My clients have all been thrilled with the results and have come back for more. It is a skin treatment that you can see an immediate improvement but you can still see benefits weeks later. It really is like nothing else I have seen on the market.

Advance Natural Foaming Cleanser allows me to keep my rosacea under control by thoroughly cleaning my skin without upsetting my skins natural balance and without causing dryness. This cleanser beats everything I've tried prior hands down! Thank you Advanced Natural for creating this amazing product.
