S urveying Weimar municipal policy raises the task of explaining the causes of the rapid growth of municipal activity in Germany after the end of hyperinflation. Widespread desire for recovery after war and inflation and concern over damage to public health provided clear motives for adopting new state tasks, yet such anxiety did not ensure state expansion. The complaints of housing reformers before the First World War did not, after all, lead to large-scale promotion of new housing construction in the absence of a political consensus in favor of government support for new housing settlements. What, then, were the political causes of the further growth of state activity on the local level during the Weimar Republic?
Since much of the growth of Weimar State activity occurred in social provision, histories of social policy might provide a useful approach for explaining the causes of Weimar State expansion; however, the vast field of inquiry into the history of social policy has yielded no single conclusive explanation of the origins and development of social states.1 In the absence of agreement on any one model for the emergence of social states, analysis has instead sought to categorize major different types of social states.2 Such variation in the causes for the growth of social welfare can also be noted in the history of social policy in an individual country. The German social state, for example, began its growth under very different political conditions from those found in the Weimar Republic or after the Second World War.3
In the case of the Weimar Republic, the influence of rapid democratization merits attention in analysis of the politics of social policy. The conjunction between democratization and the growth of state____________________

Fact: Out of the current 4980 employees there are 800 roles with at least 1 direct report, 500 of which have only 6 or less employees under their entire hierarchy. On top of these 800, there are 300 additional "Manager", "Director", and "VP" titles with 0 direct reports. This 300 count doesn't include account and project mgrs with no direct reports.Cost Saving tip: Consolidate at the manager level, make slightly larger teams, and globalize these 300 zero direct report VIPs.Fact: There are many many senior and "Staff" titles. Cost Saving tip: Compare output of Staff/Senior to non-staff. Level 5-8 should perform 2X of Level 2-4. Replace where required.Fact: Hundreds of the above roles have official home offices, some in the boonies.Cost Saving tip: Let's get some real team working happening by working out of existing offices and save on flights/hardware vpn/phone/internet/shipping.CDNS is a geriatrics ward full of very senior ex-engineers from the 80s sitting around waving their hands. The layoffs up to now haven't changed this. Please clear out the expensive dead weight and invest in a fresher more productive and affordable workforce.
This data is garbage and your suggestions are poor. Are you a short getting burned or a layed off employee with no job prospects? Either way, your facts are fiction.
How do you know the data offered up is garbage? Are you an insider with access to said data?The original poster has sited some pretty specific numbers, and structures, leading me to believe they are (or were) an insider. Regardless, the fact that there are more then 300 Director-VP level individuals who have no direct reports is a pretty telling piece of data in my opinion. That's not just top heavy, it is wasteful and speaks poorly for CDNS management teams focus and attention on real business optimization. A lot of these 300 are probably artifacts left over from aquisitions, particularly inside R&D. Nor am I surprised at the overall top heavy title structures in this company. CDNS is notorious for this and it has been discussed for years now on this board. Given the original posters data is accurate (sorry you have to do more then just say it is garbage, you need to actually refute it with accurate facts if you want to make that claim), it shows that nothing is really changing inside the walls of CDNS to put the company on a healthier trim for the future. It smacks of continued operation of a "club of familiars" where who you know if more important then what you know, how you perform, or how you contribute to the direct benefit of your customers.
Could you provide an alternate set of facts? This is an interesting discussion...
Good input. The other question is what product lines to get rid of. I would really consider running away form the RTL flow except system level verification. I think at best CDNS' synthesis suite of tools has captured only 20% market share.
Couldn't agree more. There are so many broken and secretary like managers inside. Also there are tons of T4+'s doing nothing but T3 can do easily. It's painful but time to be honest with the facts.

I am looking for a set of 700c tires 28-32c. What is the best tire you would recommend for $30 a piece?
Road conditions are poor in a few spots but overall it could be considered good to excellent. Distance ridden is about 25 miles each day. Rain is not much of an issue, but there are a few areas where sand can create a quasi-slick environment every once in a while.
I was originally looking at a set of Panaracer T-Serv's after reading some good reviews, but there is also a lot of mention of them being "soft" (does that mean they wear down quickly?) so I am not sure if that is the best way to go.

FCC Announces Details of Payola Settlement
The Federal Communications Commission announces the details of a settlement with four of the nation's largest radio broadcasters — Clear Channel, CBS Radio, Citadel and Entercom — over the practice of payola, the practice of accepting payment from record labels to air their artists without disclosing that arrangement to listeners.
The settlement includes voluntary payments by the broadcasters; agreements to establish staff positions charged with overseeing compliance with the settlement; and the establishment of a database that tracks all money and other contributions from labels.
Under a separate agreement, the broadcasters have also volunteered to collectively air 4,200 hours per year of music by local and independent musicians.
FCC Commissioner Jonathan Adelstein pursued the case at the commission after it received reams of incriminating documents two years ago from then New York attorney general Elliot Spitzer. Spitzer discovered e-mails and other evidence of rampant payola across the record and radio industries in an investigation; he has previously settled with the record companies based in New York.
The FCC will also require hotlines for whistle-blowing employees. But the settlement absolves broadcasters of past payola misdeeds. Some critics worry that it lacks enforcement teeth.
The agreement was negotiated over months by the FCC and broadcasters to avoid lengthy litigation.

Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

The NCAA has granted former five-star wide receiver Kyle Prater a waiver to be eligible to play this season for Northwestern.
The ex-USC wideout, who announced he was transferring from the Trojans program on January 8, was injured for most of his two years at 'SC. He had one reception for six yards in 2011.
Prater will join a deep NU receiver corps that also includes Demetrius Fields, Christian Jones, Tony Jones and Rashad Lawrence, so quarterback Kain Colter will have plenty of weapons as he takes the reins from Dan Persa in Evanston.

No problem on moodle.org, it's all lightning fast, so it's not because of the user table.
The problem here is the number of courses, categories and number of overrides I suppose.
The main report page should be relatively fast, I was aware that the detailed report pages may be very slow - unfortunately adding progress bar will require major changes in a way it is implemented.
I agree we might at least tr to inform admins that the detailed reports may be very slow.
May be an intermediate page that is shown when you click on the security log link in administration. On the page a warning and a button to start the calculation of the report...
Intermediate page is a problem because it would require a rewrite of code logic - maybe a warning bellow the report:
"Please note that processing of detailed reports may take a very long time."
I'm currently checking Security Overview on a production site with about 45000 users and 635 courses.
With teh above figure the report is unusable. After 35 minutes of waiting, the myql daemon was still on 100% cpu on a dual xeon quad core.
I have rewritten the query and committed changes into cvs, could somebody please test it on a real large site and measure the difference?
I just updated my CVS and ran it and now the script runs for about 6 seconds and displays nothing on the page except the text Security overview
I checked before and after CVS-update
before: 701 seconds
after: 696 seconds.
The warning message shows up nicely.

I've never used clipless pedals but there's some sales going on that might spur me to give it a shot.
Was thinking about a pair of Crank Bros Smarty for my commuter bike, and a set of Forte Campus for my SS MTB (clips on one side, and platform on the other, so they'd be good for cruising to the store, lending to a friend, etc.)
So my question is: if I buy one pair of shoes, will I be able to go back and forth b/w both bikes without any issues? I'm not fully up to speed on cleat shapes and sizes.

RimWorld Summary
Latest news
RimWorld gains "clever new AI strategies" with Alpha 11, new sapper and traps mechanics, new 'snowman joy activity'
Life on the frontier in Tynan Sylvester's RimWorld has just got harder, and a little bit easier. Alpha 11 has armed both the AI and player with new strategies to deal with pesky raiders and other unwelcome guests.
Sappers can now sabotage defences by digging tunnels and using explosives to blast holes. Crops are also vulnerable to being set on fire by raiders, but players can now use traps to even the odds.
RimWorld's Alpha 10 released, colony management now featuring joy
Yes, joy can now be had - even demanded - in the latest Alpha release for RimWorld. Colonists now seek out ways to entertain themselves and will take up skygazing, meditating, horseshoe tossing and TV watching.
Repeat one activity too much and a tolerance builds up, so it's ideal to provide a "variety of joy sources." I think perhaps describing something as your 'joy source' doesn't happen nearly enough, daily.
Latest RimWorld Alpha 9 update ends prohibition, can now brew beer
Ludeon Studios has released the latest alpha update to RimWorld, the 'prison architect of the stars' where we manage a handful of colonists stranded on a world in the outer rim of space. Fortunately, they've now got beer.
The fascist prohibition is over as Alpha 9 spreads the freedom to get drunk, go through the hell of a hangover, and put up with do-gooder teetotaler jerks. There are plenty of other new additions as well.
RimWorld prepares "name-in-game" reward system, unveils new art style
The sci-fi colony sim RimWorld is finally ready to start taking names and even backstories from Kickstarter backers who pledged for those tiers. The indie game also nabs Starbound and Gnomoria artist Rhopunzel.
RimWorld's creator Tynan Sylvester reveals the design rules the art style must follow, as well as a sampling of the new look. He's also been working on sound and modding.
Steam Greenlight adds another 37 titles
Another batch of Steam games and apps have been approved by Steam Greenlight, highlighted by the classic Treasure "bullet hell" game Ikaruga, the Enhanced Edition of J.U.L.I.A., an adaptation of Fantasy Flight's Elder Sign, first person adventure Montague's Mount and the sci-fi RTS/RPG/tower defense game Universum: War Front.

Today, for the first time since World War II, there are more than 50 million refugees in the world. Yet Lutherans are not discouraged: we continue to meet conflict, war, and persecution with God's love.
Whether the people in your congregation are new to assisting refugees, have a history of newcomer ministry, or are newcomers themselves, you can observe Refugee Sunday and create a meaningful experience with LIRS's Refugee Sunday worship materials and Rebuilding Hope newsletter.
LIRS invites your congregation, your school, and your community to join us in celebrating the power of God's love to transform the lives of those fleeing horrifying danger. By setting aside one Sunday this year to consider the courageous and often perilous journey made by millions of refugees, we can prepare our hearts to welcome each newcomer in Christ's name and support their new life in America.
LIRS invites you to walk alongside migrants and refugees on a courageous journey to rebuild their lives in this land of freedom. Through giving to LIRS, you can make sure migrant children have shoes, are able to have check-ups at a doctor, and get connected to their family here in the United States. You can help a refugee father resettling here find a job and learn English, ensuring that his children have a better future. Consider giving below.

Youth Service America selected the teens, among dozens of applicants, as Summer of Service award winners. Each is taking home a check for $1,000.
"Kids in this area of Washington, Maryland, Virginia are deeply involved in their communities, finding their voice, taking action and having impact on big important problems," says Steve Culbertson, Youth Service America president.
Will Thomas, 14, helps military members and the families of fallen soldiers.
"I decided they need to know that we're supporting them at home and if need anything we have their back," he says. "It just makes me feel good to know I'm doing something that's making a real difference."
Julia Burks, 15, provides weekend meals for kids who might not otherwise eat.
"There is suffering even in the best places," she says.
Omnia Saed, 17, encourages teens to speak up about important issues.
"Teenagers need a place to talk - they want to talk. We just have to give them funnel to do it," she says.
And 17-year-old Scott Gerson runs a bocce team at his school where all students are welcome.
"You can't tell when playing who has disabilities and who doesn't and really doesn't matter, playing together," he says.
The students plan to use their awards to help even more people and say that this is just the beginning.
"It means a lot," says Saed. "Most importantly, it's representation of the potential we can have."

The group is called "Pirates for Haiti." Several ECU students volunteered their time and set up tables Tuesday seeking donations for Haiti relief.
They group gave out free hot chocolate and red ribbons for those who stopped by to donate.

The goal is to raise $5,000 in donations. The brought in $625.00 Tuesday.
Tables will be set up in several different locations across campus for the next month.

Jesse Wallace threw two touchdowns passes, including one in the fourth quarter to seal the win over Toledo.
Although the Spudders were outgained by over 100 yards, the game was a back and forth tug-of-war battle for the majority of the game.
Toledo struck first, as Danny Aguilar punched in a 1 yard touchdown run to take a 6-0 lead, as the two point conversion was missed.
Ridgefield responded with a 1 yard touchdown run of their own, with Ian Williams taking the lead for the Spudders as the first quarter came to a close.
Toledo answered with an 8-yard run from Cody Meier, breaking tackles and finding the end zone. Quarterback Jesse Wallace ran in the two point conversion for a 14-7 lead.
Immediately after, Ridgefield tied the score with a 23 yard run by their own quarterback, Clayton Farr.
Ridgefield regained control in Toledo territory with only a few minutes remaining, giving the Spudders an excellent opportunity to take the lead and all the momentum into the third quarter.
Ridgefield fumbled, however, and Toledo countered with a 34 yard pass to "do-it-all-man-kicker/receiver/defensive end-man" Ronnie Boone, giving the Indians a halftime lead of 20-14.
As the momentum swayed towards the Indians, Meier punched in another touchdown.
The tug-of-war continued as Clayton Farr tossed a 71 yard pass to Michael Knox to put the game within striking distance. The kick was good, with the Spudders facing a 26-21 deficit.
The score remained unchanged until the fourth quarter, when Wallace found Boone yet again in the endzone, to take the lead and finalize the score at 34-21.
Toledo scored five touchdowns, attempting a two point conversion each time.
Farr, in his first game of the season, finished 7-17 with 150 yards through the air.

Pur Minerals CC Cream is your multi-tasking moisturizer, brightener, primer, concealer and SPF foundation! More than just another beauty balm, CC Cream with SPF 40 protects, corrects and perfects the skin's appearance with clinically advanced plant-based ingredients, like Dermapur HP, a clarifying corrective from Meadowsweet and Clariskin II, a brightening powerhouse from Wheat Germ. Ideal for all skin types and concerns, this silicone-free formula works to erase brown spots, blemishes and fine lines from sight while balancing uneven skin tone.
I don't write many reviews but I have not been a fan of both pur minerals products that I have bought, this being one of them. I bought it because it has retinol for anti-aging and I was hoping to have a quick fix makeup. I have combination-oily skin and every time I apply it, I hate how it looks. It seems so gunky and it doesn't cover at all. I've used it over primer, without primer, with a finishing powder, without finishing powder. I have also used it over moisturizer, etc... But this product really does not work for me. I have multiple freckles, some redness, dark circles under my eyes, and huge forehead wrinkles. It creases sooo bad in my forehead area that I may as well wash it off. I hope this helps.
Smooth a small amount onto clean skin until evenly blended.
This product can be shipped to any country to which SkinStore currently ships.

Reported by Barry Burch Jr. How many Presidents of the United States can say that George Clooney would curse someone out for them? President Obama can. The "Gravity" actor actually went as far as to curse his billionaire friend out for making remarks about his other friend – President Obama. Steve Wynn, a Las Vegas hotel magnate, allegedly began trash-talking the President in front of Clooney, who was simply not having it. The incident took place a couple weeks ago at a dinner in Vegas. Clooney, 52, and Wynn, 72 got into an intense argument regarding politics, more specifically, President Obama. Clooney released a statement explaining his side of the story in an email via his publicist: "He called the president an @sshole … that is a fact … I said the president was my longtime friend and then he said 'your friend is an @sshole.' … At that point I told Steve that HE was an asshole and I wasn't going to sit at his table while he was being such a [email protected]." According to Clooney, he and Wynn were through with each other following the altercation, and he said it was not about Wynn's political beliefs. "It had nothing to do with politics and everything to do with character," said the actor. Clooney was in Las Vegas promoting a convention when he ran into Wynn and the two decided to have dinner together. After the dinner is when things got heated. "The place was empty," said Wynn. And everything was fine, he added, until a Corrections Corporation of America (CCA) exec told a joke about former Soviet Union President Mikhail Gorbachev, as reported by eurweb.com. In a phone interview, Wynn explained his point of view, saying "He [Clooney] stood up and threw a hissy fit" at the CCA guy. Wynn continued: "Then he sat down and started talking about the Affordable Care Act, and that's when I spoke up." Wynn is reportedly very critical of Obamacare. "He didn't like that either. I think my discussion about the Affordable Care Act was the straw that broke the camel's back." Wynn then delivered a low blow, saying that Clooney begins to see his relationship with the president a little differently when under the influence of alcohol. "When he's drinking, he considers himself a close personal buddy of the president," he said. "He got up and said, 'I don't have to listen to this (expletive) stuff.' The only person who got excited at the table was George, and he ran off to another bar." He concluded…"Everybody who's in my business, the casino business, knows to take actors with a grain of salt." Do you think George Clooney overreacted? Barry is an award-winning writer and political scientist. His business, "Barry Writes," provides biographies, speeches, press releases and so forth to individuals and businesses in need of potent and compelling literature.

Don't know. But I think I would feel a bit uncomfortable in the presence of someone who was publicly belittling the leader of the nation. Love him or hate him, the President is due respect in a public arena.
Ann G.
Wanda you are absolutely right, you don't have to agree with the president's policies but you should respect him as a man. Wynn is nothing more than a money grubbing asshole, who does not want to pay his employees decent wages nor provide insurance for them. He and Donald Trump are like two peas in a pod! They both want to pay slave wages in their casinos! Much respect goes to George Clooney for speaking up. I go to Las Vegas once a year and have never stepped foot in Trumps place nor Wynn's.
Good for George Clooney. I would have done exactly the same – as any decent person would.
All of the A**holes are being revealed!!

On December 26, 2010, the first major blizzard of winter slammed the northeastern United States. The storm unleashed powerful winds as it moved up the coast, dumping a foot of sideways-blowing snow on some areas with more expected through Monday's morning commute.
Governors declared states of emergency in Virginia, Maryland and Massachusetts ahead of the approaching storm, a bid to get crews ready and expedite recovery funding depending on its impact. The mayors of Philadelphia, Boston, Providence and Portland, Maine, also called snow emergencies, while New York City launched a winter snow storm operation and encouraged people to stay off the roads by taking mass transit or staying put.
In this week's online activity, get ready to learn cool facts about snowflakes and snowstorms.
Our first stop this week is All About Snow, a section of the Education Center at the National Snow and Ice Data Center. Here you can study snow in a variety of different contexts, including science, geography, and history.
Read the overview, and then click Q&A. This page contains a selection of frequently asked questions related to snow. Read each question and its corresponding answer. As you read each question and answer, determine if it relates to science, geography, or history. How many questions are there in each category?
Click Facts and read the page. Which cities and states in America receive the most snow on average? In the western states, how much of the yearly water supply comes from winter snow? What names do skiers use to describe different types of snow?
To learn about snow-related history in the United States, browse to Have Snow Shovel Will Travel and read the page. What is the difference between a blizzard and a snowstorm? What are some ways in which early settlers in New England learn to prepare for heavy snow? When were the first snow plows developed? Describe the blizzard of 1888. How did snow removal evolve in the early 1900s? Describe three or four strategies for remaining safe during a blizzard.
Now that you have learned a few things about snow, let's get microscopic and learn about snowflakes and individual snow crystals at this site by Kenneth G. Libbrecht at Caltech. After scanning the page to look at the magnificent snowflake photos, go to the Snowflake Primer page under the heading Snowflake Physics. This page gives basic facts about snowflakes and snow crystals. What is the difference between a snowflake and a snow crystal? Why are all snow crystals hexagonal (six sides)? What is the difference between snow and sleet? What are crystal facets? What factors cause snow crystals to form differently? Summarize the life of a snowflake.
Next, browse to the Snow Crystal FAQs page and read the frequently asked questions and answers. Is it common for snow crystals to form symmetrically? What color is snow? What is the best temperature for making snow? Name three reasons for studying snow crystals.
There is more to read, so feel free to explore. For now, take a look at some of the designer snowflakes created by Libbrecht. Read Designer Snowflakes – Part One: First Attempts. This describes the author's attempts to re-create the conditions that cause snowflakes to form in nature. Then read Snowflake Movies and watch some of the fascinating time-lapse movies of snow crystals growing in the lab.
Weather forecasting and reports on weather conditions have long been a staple of news reporting. That's because weather often has a big impact on human activities. Too much or too little of any type of weather condition can cause major disruptions—from a spoiled outdoor wedding to a major drought or flood. That's why you can find weather reports and forecasts in every issue of the e-edition. Follow weather reports over the course of a week, a month, or longer. Look for corresponding news reports in which weather has been a factor. For example, if there was a traffic accident reported, was it weather related? If there is a shift in the price of oil, is it in response to higher or lower demand due to the weather? How many weather-related news reports can you find?

Also, the students do not have to sign-in to the site, they just put in the class name I set up.

Sony a57/65 or pentax K-30
Hi my wife and I just had our first baby and are looking to buy a new camera.
We will be using the camera for baby pictures, vacations... e will be using the camera on full auto mode and hopefully slowly learn how to use the manual settings. I am trying to decide between these cameras and looking for opinions, we will be taking mostly stills and the occasional video.

A state representative has been charged with simple assault and communicating threats.
N.C. House Rep. Van Braxton of Kinston faces those two misdemeanor charges, according to court records. Ray Wiley of Lenoir County is pressing the charges for a confrontation on November 4. The Kinston Free Press says Braxton went to Wiley's home to confront him after a heated argument two days prior between Wiley and Braxton's wife. The paper says Wiley accused Braxton of shoving him.
Braxton lost his re-election bid this month for a third term in the State House of Representatives to Stephen LaRoque. The district includes Greene, Lenoir and Wayne Counties.

Amazon.com CEO Jeff Bezos is revered as one of the brightest minds in corporate America, but even he is still puzzling over how to reverse the financial slide threatening The Washington Post and other major U.S. newspapers.
Nevertheless, Bezos is determined to face the challenge, raising hope that his $250 million purchase of The Washington Post announced Monday will provide the newspaper industry a template for making the leap from the printed page to digital devices.
"The marriage between the newspaper industry and technology has never been consummated, but it could happen at The Washington Post now,'' said media analyst Ken Doctor of Outsell Inc.
Although Bezos bought The Post with his own money, most experts believe he is likely to tether the newspaper to Amazon.com Inc.'s products. He might also infuse the newspaper with some of the concepts that helped turn the Seattle company from an online book store into a multi-dimensional business that sells a multitude of merchandise and runs data centers that power other websites around the world.
"Just having his brain in the room will force people to confront digital in a way they haven't before,'' predicted Jerry Ceppos, a former newspaper editor who is now dean of mass communications at Louisiana State University.
Bezos, 49, made it clear that he has no magic formula for turning The Post around. The newspaper is the anchor of a division that lost $54 million at The Washington Post Co. last year while generating revenue of $582 million _ 39 percent less than it did in 2005.
"There is no map, and charting a path ahead will not be easy,'' Bezos wrote in a Monday letter sent to Post employees after his surprise acquisition was announced. "We will need to invent, which means we will need to experiment.''
According to an Amazon spokesman, Bezos wasn't available to be interviewed Tuesday about his plans for the Post.
Amazon's nearly two-decade history under Bezos' leadership suggests the Post is likely to try things that other newspapers steeped in tradition have never dared to attempt.
"Ever since he was a little kid, it got deeply ingrained into Jeff that experimentation is the answer to everything,'' said Hal Gregerson, who interviewed Bezos for his 2011 book, "The Innovator's DNA.'' "Exploring the edges is one of Jeff's counter-intuitive skills. If you go back to when he started Amazon, he was paying attention to something out
