Beware of Scams/Schemes/Frauds
|Washington, D.C. December 08, 2003
To help protect Americans from losing their hard-earned money to scams, the Federal Bureau of Investigation today announced a list of the most common financial schemes along with tips on how to avoid becoming a victim of fraudulent activities.
"FBI agents around the country are investigating thousands of money-making scams every day," said Grant Ashley, assistant director of the FBI's Criminal Investigative Division. "We want the public to be aware of the many types of scams and how they can be prevented."
Fraudulent activity costs citizens billions of dollars every year and criminals are continually seeking new ways to get their hands on other people's money. There are numerous illegal activities to watch for, including identity theft, bank fraud, health care fraud, Nigerian scams, advance fee schemes, telemarketing fraud, and securities/commodities fraud.
A few simple precautions can help reduce opportunities for scam artists. They include the following:
- Protect personal information
- Do not give out bank account, social security and credit card numbers to strangers
- Store personal information in a safe place
- Shred all credit card receipts and old financial statements
- Protect PIN codes and passwords
- Carry a minimum amount of identifying information
- Beware of unsolicited e-mail and Internet sites that ask for personal data
- Do not wire money to strangers
"Fraud can happen anywhere," said Ashley. "On the street, at your front door, on the telephone, or on the computer. The best thing individuals can do is be aware. If a deal looks like it's too good to be true—it probably is."
To report fraudulent activity or financial scams, contact the nearest FBI office or police department.

I recently set up a site on a web hosting provider.
The purpose of the site is to receive XML messages (via POST) from satellite comms data centre and store them in a database. Frequency of the messages can be up to one a minute, but the data centre also retries sending if the POST fails. I'm not sure what the retry freq. is.
After about a month of working fine, the web host starting blocking the data centre IP. Working with tech support we tried changing the permissions on the php file receiving the POST requests and white listing the server IP in the web host firewall. Despite these changes (and clearing the block) the server IP would get flagged again.
Is there anything else we should try? I still have two years of hosting left so I don't really want to change providers.

I think I gasped aloud when I first saw Cast All Your Cares. I just love Scripture stamps, and these verses are some of the best for comfort and encouragement. The artwork is graceful and elegant and works beautifully with the vintage look I so adore. Here, I've stamped the lovely frame image in a neutral ink and the Psalm 29:11 Scripture in rose ink onto ivory card stock and die-cut with a Spellbinders Labels Sixteen die. I layered onto a larger Labels Sixteen die cut that I sponged and stitched. Accents include a Spellbinders Fleur De Lis Accents border, crochet trim, seam binding, mother of pearl buttons and lots of heavy distressing.

Two men who were secretly filmed mixing the type of explosive used in the 2005 London transit bombing were convicted Tuesday of preparing a terrorist attack.
COPENHAGEN, Denmark — Two men who were secretly filmed mixing the type of explosive used in the 2005 London transit bombing were convicted Tuesday of preparing a terrorist attack.
Hammad Khuershid, a Danish citizen of Pakistani origin, and Abdoulghani Tokhi, an Afghan, were sentenced to 12 and seven years in prison, respectively.
They were arrested in an anti-terror operation last year after Danish agents filmed them conducting a small test blast with triacetone triperoxide, which was used by the suicide bombers who killed 52 London commuters.
Prosecutors said it was not clear whether Khuershid and Tokhi were preparing an attack abroad or in Denmark, which has repeatedly been threatened by Islamic extremists over newspaper cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad.

Investigators found handwritten bomb-making manuals in the men's homes that prosecutors said Khuershid had copied at the pro-Taliban Red Mosque in Islamabad.
They said he had ties to an al-Qaida operative and also had spent time in the Pakistani region of Waziristan, a militant stronghold near the Afghan border. Khuershid has admitted he was in Waziristan, but denies receiving any military training.
Khuershid and Tokhi, who were arrested in the Copenhagen area in September 2007, had pleaded innocent and said the explosive was to be used for fireworks. They sat motionless as the City Court in Glostrup, on the outskirts of Copenhagen, handed down the guilty verdict.
The court said during sentencing that Tokhi, who has a Danish residence permit, would be expelled after serving his sentence.
Defense lawyers for both suspects said they would appeal the ruling.
Denmark's PET security police put the men under surveillance after receiving a tip from a foreign intelligence agency. PET agents monitored their phone and computer communication and installed video cameras in Khuershid's home.
One surveillance video, played in court, showed the men mixing and testing a very small amount of triacetone triperoxide, or TATP.
PET chief Jakob Scharf said the ruling confirmed that the arrests had prevented a terrorist attack. He called it "a serious case which illustrates that there are people and circles in Denmark that have the will and the ability to commit acts of terror."
Danish police say they have thwarted a series of terrorist attacks in recent years.
In February, police arrested two Tunisian men suspected of plotting to murder Danish cartoonist Kurt Westergaard, who drew one of the Muhammad caricatures that sparked violent protests in Muslim countries in 2006.
Neither suspect was prosecuted. One of them was deported and the other was released Monday after an immigration board rejected PET's efforts to expel him from Denmark.

Attorney Greg Liepshutz negotiated a very satisfactory settlement with my former employer for me, and he was awesome!Posted by a Consumer on 11/20/141.0 out of 5.0after they lost my case they said to blame the judge.....I thought I hired them to win my case.....very bad at returning callsPosted by a Consumer on 04/14/141.0 out of 5.0I spoke it Joe Houle, who was very rude to me. He would not allow me to speak. Instead, he told me to get a doctor to write a letter stating I was disabled and call him back. Then he actually hung up on me!! If I had a doctor's letter stating I was disabled, I would just apply for the disability myself. How stupid! He wants me to do all the work for him and then get his cut!Posted by a Consumer on 06/25/135.0 out of 5.0Gary W. Bimberg and Amber Bartoli were great. They handled my case in a very professional way. I was able to speak with them whenever I needed. They kept in contact with me via telephone and email. Gary W. Bimberg settled my case in less than 7 months and I didn't even have to go to court. I would recommend the Law offices of Levine and Benjamin to any family member, friend or associate if they are in need of a Lawyer, and that lawyer would be Gary W. Bimberg.Posted by a Consumer on 05/03/131.0 out of 5.0Hired for Social Security benefits case. Did not hear from Attorney Steinhelper in months so I phoned the day before hearing. His secretary called me the morning of the hearing to inform me he was on his way. I was supposed to be there one hour before the hearing and Steinhelper showed up 20 minutes before the hearing started. Not only was he late but he was unprepared and had a hard time putting CD with information in the computer. He spent 10 min. with me. Filing complaint with Grievance ComPosted by a Consumer on 03/16/135.0 out of 5.0The firm was very helpful no matter who i talked to when i called. Handled my case very efficiently.Posted by a Consumer on 09/11/114.3 out of 5.0The barrister assigned to my case insists that all of my communications to him go to his secretary only. The only time I will speak to him was in the initial interview and when I meet him at the ALJ's for my hearing. Maybe that's SOP, but my reaction is that it makes me nervous.Posted by a Consumer on 09/06/115.0 out of 5.0Great lawyers and everyone who works in this office. Extremely nice on the phone, consistent, up to date, determined.Posted by a Consumer on 06/22/115.0 out of 5.0I like the fact that the attorney who I was assigned, explain everything to me as to what was going to happen and what I could expect. I was even given a time frame concerning how long my case would take to be heard. And, the time explained to me, was almost exact. When I had questions or concerns, they were handled in a very timely manner.Posted by a Consumer on 03/14/113.5 out of 5.0Cases really take to long to solve, I understand they are at the mercy of the courts, However, during the waiting period I feel more contact with the client to assure them of the process would feel more comfortable.Posted by a Consumer on 03/06/114.5 out of 5.0They offered to help me on the first call and there is no fee if I am denied benefits. I am handicapped and am very limited in the places I can go and things I can do. So far, my attorney, Gary Bimberg, has done most all the leg work and I have only had to fill out and send in papers and talk on the phone. I am very pleased with their helpfulness and speediness in handling my case.Posted by a Consumer on 01/31/115.0 out of 5.0Exceptional communication with everyone I spoke to at the firm.Posted by a Consumer on 10/17/105.0 out of 5.0Received the results I wanted faster than I thought.Posted by a Consumer on 09/01/103.5 out of 5.0Lengthen process that required much waiting and often wondered the status of my claim but they responded in timely manner whenever contacted with questions

OKC Thunder: Questions to ponder two weeks before training camp opens
Basketball is almost back.
Believe it or not, training camp opens for the Thunder in less than two weeks. That means no more waiting and wondering. All of our questions about this revamped squad will soon be answered.
The biggest unknown during these dog days undoubtedly has been whether the Thunder has enough to win it all. Scores of smaller yet still significant issues must first play out before we discover the answer to that million dollar question, however.
As we count down these final days, here are five of the most pressing questions going into the 2013-14 Thunder season.
How will Russell Westbrook return?
An unfortunate knee injury to Westbrook devastated a state and derailed the Thunder's season. How Westbrook bounces back from that setback will now determine how far the Thunder can go. For five seasons we've watched Westbrook display one of the most fearless styles of play on the planet. His relentless attack has always put pressure on defenses and given the Thunder a go-to option whenever all else fails. But will Westbrook still have that same gear with a reconstructed knee? Will he still have that same mentality? Westbrook is expected to make a full recovery from the torn meniscus he suffered on April 24. But he may not be 100 percent to start the season. As a result, we may see a different player initially than the Tasmanian devil we've grown accustomed to. After an offseason of rehab, Westbrook's confidence and rhythm will be worth monitoring just as much as his motor and athleticism.
Can Reggie Jackson replicate his postseason performance for an entire season?
If Westbrook isn't himself early on, the Thunder has a terrific Plan B in Jackson. In his first postseason Jackson averaged 13.9 points, 4.9 rebounds and 3.6 assists while shooting 47.9 percent from the field. Can the third-year guard now do it for a full season? We see no reason why he can't thanks to his size, athleticism and finishing ability. But the fact remains that Jackson has never been a focal point of the offense. He didn't receive the primary backup point guard minutes last year until late December, and even then he often wasn't the primary ball-handler. Now Jackson is expected to be the team's sixth man. If he can succeed in that role Jackson can carry a second unit that is short on offensive weapons and go a long way in alleviating some pressure from the Thunder's stars.
Is Jeremy Lamb ready to contribute?
The Thunder rolled the dice letting Kevin Martin go. Much of that gamble was about money. But a chunk of it also spoke to the team's confidence in Lamb, the second-year shooting guard who arrived as part of the James Harden package. Lamb is a sharpshooter with tremendous athleticism. But his youth (21), inexperience (147 career minutes) and spotty defense all raise questions about whether he's ready to step into a championship rotation. If he gets the chance, Lamb should put together plenty of highlights in the regular season. Of course, it's not the regular season that anyone is worried about anymore. Can he do it when it matters most, in the playoffs?
Will the coaching staff take another step with creativity?
Contrary to popular belief, coach Scott Brooks and his staff showed signs of growth last season, shoring up situational game aspects such as the team's sideline out of bounds plays, late game play-calling and execution. They did it while also turning the Thunder into a top five defensive team. But a rigid rotation last year again raised questions, and the continued absence of an offensive system really hurt when Westbrook went down in the playoffs. Those are two obvious areas that, perhaps as much or more than anything else, can help push the Thunder over the top if solved.
What will Kevin do? Lost in all the hoopla that has defined the Thunder's offseason — the ghost of Harden, the loss of Martin, the Western Conference supposedly catching up, the Thunder's reluctance to pay the tax — seems to be one important shred of reality: Kevin Durant is still pretty darn good. After three straight scoring titles, Durant, at 24, assembled a historic season of efficiency last year, proving again that he's getting better every year. Still years away from entering his prime, however, it's anyone's guess what Durant will do next. He still has room to grow as a defender, and building on his evolving post-up game and playmaking could go a long way in turning him into an even greater force. But know this. If Durant returns with those weapons in his backpack, he single-handedly could make these and any other questions about the Thunder's 2013-14 season irrelevant.

Hyderabad, Jan 23 (IANS) New films have made their way into the Telugu list this fortnight. Three of them were released during the Makar Sankranti festival.
The top five Telugu films are:
1. 'Krishna' - This, perhaps, is the most successful of the Sankranti releases. Ravi Teja and Trisha star in the film, which seems to be doing well in terms of audiences and revenues. Director V.V. Vinayak chose a rather stereotypical story, but Ravi Teja ably carries it on his shoulders.
2. 'Vaana' - A Telugu remake of the Kannada blockbuster 'Mungaaru Malle', the film is directed by M.S. Raju. It is technically sound with melodious music, good camera work by Sekhar V. Joseph and some good locales. Lead pair Vinay and Meera Chopra do not create any magic, although the hero makes some effort to do so. Somehow, the movie is disappointing. Nevertheless, it is drawing families and is doing average business.
3. 'Anasuya' - Bhumika Chawla steals the show in the title role. Playing a TV journo, Bhumika displays good acting skills. She portrays the right kind of emotions in the film. Ravi Babu, who is also the director, looks good as the villain. This 'edge-of-the-seat' 'noir'-like thriller has got critical acclaim - the film is technically slick albeit a bit dark in terms of lighting and is faring well.
4. 'Mantra' - The whodunit film starring Charmee and Sivaji is faring well as far as revenues go. Suspense thrillers and murder-mysteries are not common in the Telugu film industry and 'Mantra' and 'Anasuya' have shown that this genre goes down well with the audience if the film is made well.
5. 'Pourudu' - Sumanth is back in action with the film. Although he does a good job, the story is a down-to-death one. The film is faring fairly well.

A natural gas leak in downtown Vancouver on Thursday morning prompted street closures and the evacuation of several buildings, including a motel.
When the all clear was issued around 12:30 p.m., no one was injured and no fires were reported.
Many downtown streets were temporarily closed between Evergreen Boulevard and Mill Plain Boulevard, including C, Broadway and Main streets. The I-5 southbound off-ramp at Mill Plain was also temporarily closed because of the leak.
A private contractor hit a one-inch low-pressure gas line near 12th and D streets and notified Northwest Natural and 911 around 9:20 a.m., said Jenna Cooper-Gross, Northwest Natural spokeswoman.
The contractor, C2, was installing casing around a pipe in the area when it hit the low-pressure distribution gas line, she said.
About 25, firefighters, including a HazMat unit from Vancouver fire and firefighters from Clark County Fire District 6, responded.
Scott Willis, Vancouver fire spokesman said Northwest Natural crews found potentially explosive levels of gas in the storm and domestic sewers.
Natural gas, which is lighter than air, seeped into the ground surrounding the pipes.
"Sewer lines are porous and packed in gravel, not dirt," Cooper-Gross said. "Natural gas finds the path of least resistance and went into the line that way."
Crews also found a small amount of gas in the upper level of the Comfort Inn motel, Cooper-Gross said. Guests in that portion of the motel were relocated to a lower floor temporarily as a precaution, she said.
The sewers and the motel were ventilated with a vapor extractor, a device that draws a high volume of air out of a hole. Firefighters and Northwest Natural employees continued to monitor gas levels in the sewers surrounding the motel.
Crews also used machinery to dig holes to check underground gas lines.
The site is only a couple of blocks from the former Vancouver city hall, where an emergency mass-casualty drill was in progress. However, the gas leak was not part of the drill. The old city hall was pressed into service as a media briefing area.
Crews removed the damaged piece of steel pipe and put in a replacement piece.
In an ironic twist, workers at the new Vancouver City Hall, 415 W. Sixth St., were practicing an evacuation drill at the same time the gas leak was forcing real evacuations.
Firefighters say the incident should serve as a reminder.
"You always call before you dig," spokesman Willis said. The private utility did call, but even so struck a line and prompted the emergency response, he said.
Anyone who plans to dig should call 811 two business days before digging to arrange for technicians to come to the scene and mark underground lines, cables and pipes.
Reporters Eric Florip and Marissa Harshman contributed to this story.

Did Imposter Halal Stand Inspire Imposter News Report?
A couple of halal vendors are wearing the same yellow jackets, and are perched on the same block, as their more famous counterparts.
Midtown Lunch is calling B.S. on CBS News for seemingly stealing a story. Last Thursday, ML reported that some daytime halal vendors on 53rd Street and Sixth Avenue were posing as the famous nighttime vendors by wearing similar yellow sweaters. Per CBS' report, the nighttime guys aren't really sweating it ("it's a competition"), and the daytime guys claim they're just honoring taxi drivers with the colors. With offices in midtown, it's perfectly possible CBS News noticed this themselves. But Midtown Lunch? Not happy.

There is a huge difference between a bad and good Conveyancing Solicitor.
The following simple tips will help you make a decision you won't regret.
The Conveyancing process in the UK can be a painfully slow process leaving property buyers and sellers wondering what, if anything, is going on.
Some conveyancers are almost Dickensian in their approach and others can seem faceless often hiding behind IT systems (how many have you seen offering online case tracking? Wouldn't you rather talk to a human?), and some can be a mix of both
Thankfully there are many highly skilled conveyancers offering a personal and pro-active service and if you are lucky enough to find one, your transaction should go smoothly, allowing for factors beyond his or her influence of course.
You might think it is pot luck, decide to chance it and go for the Cheapest Conveyancing Quote, after all you could choose an expensive quote and still receive a poor service.
You might get lucky and get a perfectly good service at a bargain price but whether you are buying or selling a home, this is probably your biggest asset so it really can pay you to do a little research before you choose your conveyancer. Get it right and you should:

No such thing as teacup pigs
- October
- 29
Now I think I may have heard everything. Got this today from the Best Friends Animal Society. There's a "Pignorance Quiz" at the very end.
The current celebrity-driven craze for mythical "teacup" pigs as pets will result in thousands of these animals ending up at overburdened sanctuaries, shelters and rescue groups when they outgrow their purported small size, according to Best Friends Animal Society.
To see video,
">follow this link:
Yvonne McIntosh, an animal care manager for Best Friends who is an expert on potbellied pigs, says she was "horrified" when MSNBC, The Today Show, New York Post and other media ran cutesy stories about supposedly tiny pigs and gushed when Paris Hilton and Rupert Gint, of Harry Potter fame, recently adopted supposed micro pigs.
"You can call them 'teacup,' 'mini,' 'micro,' or 'thimble,' but the truth is the supposedly tiny pigs do not exist," says McIntosh who manages Piggy Paradise at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary. "People who think they are buying a pig that stays small are being fooled. Unscrupulous breeders are breeding pigs less than a year old, and by the time the litter is born, the parents still are only about eight months old and far below their full size.
McIntosh says it takes four to five years for pigs to reach full growth. "The breeders tell folks that the piglets will be no bigger than the parents, but the buyer doesn't realize the parent pigs are nowhere near full-grown themselves. Unfortunately, most people believe these breeders/sellers and do not educate themselves before they buy the pigs."
McIntosh compares the small pig fad to a time when Los Angeles shelters were overwhelmed with small, purebred dogs that people bought so they could carry one in their purse, but eventually were abandoned in droves. When the novelty wears off, when the pig reaches 150 to 300 pounds instead of the 40 pounds it was supposed to be, or when people find out their local zoning doesn't allow pigs, there is no place for them to go and they become homeless.
McIntosh has surveyed colleagues at pig sanctuaries and rescue organizations such as PigASus Sanctuary, Forgotten Angels Rescue & Education Center and Hamalot Pot Bellied Pig Rescue about their experiences with this trend. Some 300 full-to-capacity potbellied pig rescues throughout the country house approximately 300,000 potbellied pigs. And in the current economy, potbellied pig rescuers are also seeing increased requests to take in even more pigs.
"One pig sanctuary owner received a call from a woman who wanted to dump the two potbellied pigs she's had for almost nine years so that she could buy 'teacup-sized' pigs," McIntosh says.
Sadly, the lucky pigs may be the ones who end up in rescue. It is not uncommon for the pigs to be simply turned out as strays, even in cities. Many are taken to shelters and euthanized without any chance at adoption or placement. Other owners will kill the pigs or send them to auction where they can be bought for as little as $2 dollars and used to train fighting dogs or other similar fates.
"A huge number of these little pigs also end up being stuck all alone in a small enclosure in a back corner of the yard, quite neglected once the novelty has worn off and the pig is fully grown," McIntosh said. "Because they are extremely social animals, this is a torturous life for them. There are thousands and thousands of 'miniature' pigs killed every year."
And while the media-driven craze for toy-size pigs continues, it totally blots out the most important fact — that pigs are wonderful companion animals.
"At Best Friends our motto is rooting out 'pignorance' one human at a time," McIntosh adds. "There are scientific studies that show pigs are smarter than dogs. They can be trained to do tricks. They are easier to housebreak than dogs. They are clean animals who love affection and give it back —on their pig terms of course. Socialized pigs actually crave human company.
"Bringing a pig into your home is not quite the same as bringing home a dog or cat; pigs require specialized care and proper housing … that's why it is so important to fully educate yourself before getting one," McIntosh says.
To learn more about the ever-engaging potbellied pigs, visit the Best Friends Pet Care Library's section, "You and Your Pig" and the Piggy Paradise community on the Best Friends Network.
· Pigs are dumb – FALSE!!
Pigs are smarter (and easier to housetrain) than dogs. It's true!
They aren't always obedient though … kind of like cats!
· Pigs are dirty – FALSE!!
Pigs are clean and do not smell when living a healthy life. They use mud to keep cool because nature designed them to do so. Humans go to spas for mud baths … does that make us unclean?
· Pigs are fun – TRUE!!
Pigs are FULL of personality!
Some are quiet, some are comical, but all can be very affectionate!
· Pigs can be trained – TRUE!!
Pigs can be trained like dogs. They can be clicker-trained to learn commands and to perform tricks!
· Pigs are fat and lazy – FALSE!!
When fed a proper diet full of healthy veggies, pigs will have "curves," but won't be obese. They love to run and play, only pigs that have been misfed and/or overfed will be porky!

Laurel, you've got to be kidding me! Are those people really that dumb?? Well, nothing can be a surprise anymore.
So what's next, a pocket-size behemoth perhaps? That would be a novelty on Park Avenue.

As the proud piggy mama of a "mini" pig, I can assure you that piglets are absolutely adorable, entertaining, amusing and sweet. But…they grow up and they are pigs! My boy is now 2 years old and weighs 150 lbs but I wouldn't dream of dumping him at a shelter or throwing him out in the backyard. Pigs are special..intelligent and highly emotional and are NOT for everyone. People need to do their homework before purchasing a pet pig!

"Ocotillo" Ocotillo by malecon
Ocotillo Travel Guide: 12 reviews and 26 photos
Some towns are like books; not to be judged by their cover. That would be a mistake with a town like Ocotillo that isn't the most aesthetically pleasing but but has a heck of a lot of character. The kind of character typical in small desert communities with a few too many trailers and old trucks rusting away. Add to that crumbling buildings and burnt out homes and you have Ocotillo.
It sounds bad, but the reality is far less severe. This is a proud town that has survives despite the blight and economic hardships. Some had written it off as completed destroyed after Hurricane Kathleen flooded the town killing three people in 1976.
The bigger disaster came when Interstate 8 replaced US 80 which ran through town. Businesses slowly failed while the buildings the inhabited remained vacant for years until rot caused there collapse. Their carcasses still remain to this day, but the town survives.
It clings to life not from the interstate necessarily but S-2 or what is referred to as the Imperial Highway still passes through; a link between Imperial Valley and the Los Angeles area. It runs through the Anza Borrego desert where caravans in their RV's and jeeps pass through, including the casual visitor, like myself, searching for the unusual, the intriguing.
I'm intrigued with Ocotillo after passing through it so many times. I started to wander down its streets and photograph the burnt out houses, noting the names of the streets; Opal, Smoke Tree, and Shade. I've been down to the Miller Garage on old US 80, a crumbling building whose roof has collapsed. The old highway is a pale, cracked and seldom used frontage road now. Amazingly, this is just a few yards and in clear view of the interstate.
Ocotillo remains small with one stop sign on the north end of town, the last before heading into the Carrizo Badlands and the great Anza Borrego. And so is the one thing this town has in abundance - wide open land. And for that reason, Ocotillo is heaven on earth.
- In a nutshell:This town has more character than many cities.

Historic, Horrible and Hysterical True Facts about Past Inaugurations (We Solemnly Swear!)
Byline: Jamie Sotonoff firstname.lastname@example.com
Every U.S. presidential inauguration is historic in some way. It could be because of the weather, the profound speeches or the lavish parties.
As we prepare to make history again and swear in our first African-American president, we look back on some interesting facts about past presidential inaugurations.
Leading by example
Because of the wars and the Depression, Woodrow Wilson and Franklin D. Roosevelt refused to have celebrations or parties following their inaugurations in 1913 and in 1937, 1941 and 1945, respectively.
A lot of dancing
Bill Clinton had 14 different inaugural balls after his ceremony in 1997.
A cold reception
Ronald ReaganAEs inauguration ceremony in 1985 had to be moved indoors and the parade canceled because the noontime temperature in Washington, D.C., was only 7 degrees.
Historic firsts
Abraham LincolnAEs inauguration in 1865 marked the first time African-Americans participated in the inaugural parade. Woodrow WilsonAEs inauguration in 1917 marked the first time women participated in the parade.
From $4 to $300
Tickets to the first-ever inaugural ball in 1809 for James Madison cost $4 each. Tickets to ObamaAEs Illinois State Society Inaugural Gala cost between $300 and $500 (and itAEs sold out).
Bible swearing
Richard Nixon took the oath of office with his hand on two Bibles. Teddy Roosevelt didnAEt put his hand on anything.
Less is more
After his second inauguration in 1793, George WashingtonAEs speech was 133 words long. The longest inauguration speech (nearly 2 hours long and 10,000 words) was delivered by William H. Harrison in 1841. He did not wear a coat or hat on that cold day and died of pneumonia a month later, while in office.
On foot
Shunning the customary carriage, Thomas Jefferson walked the one block from his boardinghouse to his inauguration on Capitol Hill in 1801. …

This paper analyses various approaches to the concept of a 'safety culture' in terms of their epistemological assumptions regarding the nature of learning. As a result of this analysis, the study proposes a relational-interpretive framework for the promotion of safety in health care, which is based on relational theories and the philosophy of conceptual pragmatism as this can be used to integrate the various strands of current safety research. In particular, the approach based on a relational-interpretive perspective can bridge the apparent dualist gap that exists between the rational objectivist perspective and the relativist perspective on the role of learning in developing a safety culture. According to the relational-interpretive perspective of safety management that is proposed here, organizational members need to give continuous attention to the accepted organizational norms and values, which shape the safety culture. A case study from a health care safety project in Sweden is utilized to illustrate the ideas advanced in this paper.

What are the latest trends in gardening?
To learn more
To explore these ideas and others, time your fair visit to take advantage of this year's outstanding lineup of free talks by experts on edibles, succulent-container design, water-wise gardening and more. A complete list is at sdfair.com/fair (click on attractions).
With its "Taste the Fun" theme, the 2010 San Diego County Fair managed to tap into one of the biggest gardening trends in years — growing and landscaping with edibles.
Inside the Paul Ecke Jr. Flower & Garden show, just steps away from fried Oreos and chocolate-dipped bacon, dozens of display gardens celebrate the ageless pleasures and beauty of homegrown veggies, fresh herbs and tree-ripened fruit in settings designed to make the most of water and other limited resources — including money.
This year's multi-award-winning gardens, such as San Diego Botanic Garden's "Tea Thyme," Akana Design's "Easy Living" and AnandaScapes' "Delicious Xeriscapes," also present pared-down retreats with minimal hardscape, simple furnishings and low-maintenance plantings.
On view through July 5, the display gardens and a specially commissioned entry garden by Backyard Aquafarms are ripe with inspiration for homeowners.
Here are 10 practical trends gleaned while strolling the gardens.
Lose the hardscape: Permeable surfaces that allow rainwater, irrigation and runoff to soak into the soil are today's "green" choice. In the San Diego Horticultural Society's display, a flagstone path is set in decomposed granite (DG), walks to planter beds are gravel and a small circular patio of flagstone is "grouted" with gravel. Many of the other gardens showcase patios and paths of DG, which can be purchased in bags or by the yard.
DG by design: In Backyard Aquafarms' entry garden, the DG floor of an enclosed patio is decorated with spirals of inset river rocks. Designers Lane McClelland and Laurie Roberts pound them in after they've added binder to the DG and it is still wet.
Build with straw bales: The free-form wall and seating that circle Backyard Aquafarms' garden are made of straw bales, a material designers McClelland and Roberts praise as low cost, eco-friendly and fire- and rot-resistant. Ninety bales (generally $5-$8 each), black roofing paper, chicken wire, two coats of stucco and three hours work were needed to surround the 30-by-30-foot space. For classes, call (619) 445-1899.
Build green: RCP Block & Brick's gem of an outdoor patio showcases some of the company's eco-friendly products. Among them are the Country Keystone blocks used for walls, planters and a fire pit. The blocks are third-party-certified to be 25 percent recycled material (as is all block made by the company). Stucco by Expo Stucco on a privacy wall uses recycled sand, and the ocean-blue Eco Glass from American Fireglass in the fire pit is made from postindustrial glass. More info is at www.rcpblock.com.
From trees to trellises: Rather than toss wood from a charred oak tree on their Descanso property, McClelland and Roberts recycled it into a quirky arbor and rustic trellis twined by chardonnay grapes for their entry garden. In the San Diego Botanic Garden display, lodge pole fences and benches suit the back-to-nature theme.
Reuse, repurpose, recycle: In the San Diego Botanic Garden display, a tree trunk is the pedestal for an eye-catching water feature made from old tea kettles and a worn copper pot. The nearby San Diego Horticultural Society display turns a metal headboard into a trellis for squash. Succulents fill both an old kettle barbecue in Weidner's Gardens' "Taste of Summer" and a salad bowl centerpiece for a table in Akana Design's elegant garden.
Fountain folly: Fountains turned off to save water are ideal containers for succulents, herbs and even edibles. For its display, Cordova Gardens of Encinitas filled a scalloped fountain basin with well-draining soil and added showy aeoniums, euphorbias and sedums. In the center, is a classical statue of a woman pouring not water but string of pearls (Senecio rowleyanus) from a vase.

Actuant Reports Third Quarter Results; Provides Initial 2013 Outlook MILWAUKEE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jun. 20, 2012-- Actuant Corporation (NYSE: ATU) today announced results for its third quarter ended May 31, 2012. Highlights Diluted earnings per share ("EPS") increased 18% year-over-year to $0.60 (continuing operations, excluding debt refinancing costs - see attached reconciliation of earnings.) Core sales growth of 4% (total sales less the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and foreign currency rate changes) led by the Energy segment with 23% core growth. Year-over-year operating profit margin expansion of 100 basis points. Cash flow from operations of $77 million. Completed the acquisition of Turotest, establishing an attractive position in the Brazil agriculture and off-highway markets. Introduced full year fiscal 2013 outlook with sales and EPS expected to be $1.665-$1.700 billion and $2.15-$2.30, respectively. Robert C. Arzbaecher, Chairman and CEO of Actuant commented, "We are pleased with the results for the third quarter. As expected, our growth rates moderated from the strong pace of the past nine quarters. We delivered financial metrics at the high end of our guidance range even with the impact of foreign currency headwinds. Solid results in the U.S. and in our later cycle businesses such as Energy more than offset some end market softness in Europe and China, highlighting the benefit of our diversity. We continue to execute on our strategic growth and operations initiatives and our capital structure has never been in better shape. This gives us confidence in our ability to drive continued strong performance. I want to thank our employees across the globe for their help in delivering another solid quarter." Consolidated Results Consolidated sales for the third quarter were $429 million, 9% higher than the comparable prior year quarter. Core sales increased 4% with acquisitions contributing 8% partially offset by a negative 3% impact of the weaker Euro. Earnings and EPS from continuing operations were $34.4 million and $0.45, respectively, compared to $38.4 million and $0.51 in the comparable prior year quarter. Results for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 include pre-tax debt refinancing costs of $16.8 million, or $0.15 per diluted share after tax. Excluding these costs, fiscal 2012 third quarter EPS from continuing operations of $0.60 was 18% higher than the $0.51 in the prior year quarter. (See attached reconciliation of earnings.) Sales for the nine months ended May 31, 2012 were $1.20 billion, 15% higher than the $1.04 billion in the comparable prior year period. Excluding the 10% impact from acquisitions and negative 1% impact of the weaker Euro, year-to-date core sales increased 6%. Earnings and EPS from continuing operations for the nine months ended May 31, 2012 were $103.8 million and $1.39, respectively, compared to $87.2 million and $1.17 in the comparable prior year period. Fiscal 2012 year-to-date results include pre-tax debt refinancing costs of $16.8 million, or $0.15 per diluted share after tax. Excluding these costs, fiscal 2012 year-to-date EPS from continuing operations of $1.54 was 32% higher than the $1.17 in the prior year.
