Maximo ACM in the Airline Industry

How complex can an aircraft be? You might say it has a body, wings and two engines to make it fly. In this day in age the mass public takes for granted what has happened in the past 100 years of aircraft development. Taking for granted may not be the correct statement but more direct might be the lack of understanding and teaching of what has happened. I challenge you to search the Internet sometime "how much a 747 weighs at take off" and you will be blown away if you think about what it takes to lift that weight.
With the great movement in Air service in the Chinese market, I was involved with a Proof of Concept with a company called SFExpress. SFExpress is a package carrier operating through out
With engines, and airframe components having life limits it is paramount that the airline understand the condition, the life, the history of every sterilized component on the aircraft they own. The Maximo ACM solution provides this level of component history. Also to run an airline there are many other areas of business that need solutions to help keep the aircraft in the air and in a safe configuration. One area is assessing the effectivity of Service Bulletins, Airworthiness Bulletins and Engineering changes by OEMs. The Maximo ACM Tech Records application is used to streamline and help you understand the effectivity that these technical documents might have on your organization. It has been a very time consuming situation to determine the effectivity of an OEM document, causing thousands of man hours and at times aircraft groundings. There are many other Modules in the Maximo ACM solution that streamline the aircraft industry, please reach out to me for a better understanding of how the Maximo ACM solution can help your potential clients.

She is pregnant with her second and it's a boy. We were talking last night (she was asking my advice etc on natural birthing) and the topic of circumcision came up. She isn't sure what to do and her husband will go with it either way, from what I gathered during our talk.
She didn't outrightly ask for advice but she isn't set on the issue. I don't want to bombard her with info, and I want her to completely make the decision on her own, but I would like to give her something before she gets info from other pro circers and the like.
Thanks so much!
Sarah. Wife to Pearry, mama to Pearry II and Isabella Rose, born Breech at home and Benjamin, our January 1st bebe
happy family! we
Aww, thanks. (blushes)
Thanks for the link. She was very nice about it and said they probably won't circumcise but left it off as being a personal decision.
Sarah. Wife to Pearry, mama to Pearry II and Isabella Rose, born Breech at home and Benjamin, our January 1st bebe
My approach with my friends.
I have a few links I wanted to share with you about our talk yesterday. When I researched circumcision what interested and surprised me the most was the foreskins purpose.
I think it important to be fully informed and wanted to share what I was so surprised to discover.
Personally I feel like once my friends know what the foreskin is for and what it does they can make an informed decision. I don't want to tell them what to do and I don't feel its my place to tell them my opinion unless they ask. However, my opinion is just that another opinion and unless my friend know what the foreskin is they cant accurately evaluate my opinion anyways.
I also find this link great! http://www.drmomma.org/2010/04/circumcision-already-illegal.html

Now, she's posting a selfie to Instagram that will make you all want to be her mom friend. It looks like she's pumping in a hotel room before a night out and it's just too cute. More

From what I can gather though, Kourtney Kardashian sounds pretty rad. She's a dedicated mom to her three adorable kids and seems pretty largely drama-free. She also appears genuine, kind and not as addicted to the spotlight as most of her family. That said, in true Kourtney fashion, she waited to release pictures of her newest baby until she was damn good and ready. More
Hey there it's me, Kate Spencer, the hard-hitting Mommyish reporter covering the placenta eating beat. Today we've got mom of three Kourtney Kardashian publicly declaring on Instagram that her placenta pills are "yummy." More on that later, because I beg to disagree. More
These photos of a very pregnant and stunning Kourtney Kardashian are a good reminder of something very important: that ALL women look GORGEOUS when we are pregnant. Yes, even you. More
But anyway, yes, Kim had her baby shower palooza in Beverly Hills and many wonderful and famous individuals who have made the world a better place for everyone, including Kelly Osbourne, Maria Menounos, NeNe Leakes and Mel B were in attendance. It was like a virtual who's who of Z-list celebrities and reality stars! More
Nothing like spending a few minutes watching the Neanderthals on TMZ to remind me how completely screwed up our society is in regards to how we view breastfeeding women. It seems we just love breastfeeding boobs – just not when we use them to actually feed our children. More
I realize that pointing out a ridiculous or horrible thing Kim Kardashian says is pretty much the bottom of the blogging barrel. The woman says enough ridiculous stuff to keep every celebrity media outlet continuously posting Kardashian updates on the hour, every hour, on into eternity. But her latest shock quote is so disgusting that I just can't let it go. More
The Kourtney Kardashian weight loss following the birth of baby Penelope Disick has certainly caused a lot of metaphoric ink to be spilled. Along with very questionable copy that runs terms like "mum tum" to describe the bodies of other ladies. But when making time for her swanky Tracy Anderson workouts, Kourtney Kardashian says that she evades the epic mommy guilt by working out before they get up. Personally, I'm one for obliterating mom guilt. Not scheduling one's life around it. More
All first time mothers make mistakes. I can remember going to get my acrylics 'did and choosing super long pointy ones, in a French — of course, come on, this was like 16 years ago – and deciding in some weird new mom fog that I also needed to get E-V-E spelled out in tacky crystals on three of my nails, and then going home to a mewling newborn and making another manicure appointment for the next day to get that shit taken off. But Kim K has taken this to a level far above my $13 cheapass manicure, by sporting a
lovely hideous new pile of stones on her paw. You can't change diapers in this thing! But Kim had to look purty for her appearance on the Jimmy Kimmel show with sister Kourtney, because Kim needed to accuse Kourtney of being a child-pimping fame whore state that the Kimye spawn would not be appearing on television. More
Kourtney Kardashian welcomed her second baby (and future reality TV star), Penelope Disick, last July. Nearly six months later, the eldest Kardashian is letting photographers snap nearly every angle of her 44 lb weight loss — like you do. And don't forget those multiple Kourtney Kardashian bikini changes! More
Something about the way a large furry microphone hits the Parisian light just seems wrong. More
Penelope Scotland Disick wasn't even completely out of her mother's body before E! cameras were there to capture her arrival. You'd think they would have at least waited until the afterbirth was wiped from her bluish little body. But what would be the Kardashian incentive for that? More
I'm interested in babies and famous babies enough without needing a new show about z-list celebrities becoming neighbors and "keeping their sanity." More
On the latest episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Kourtney talks with her sister Khloe and a surprised fiance about wanting more kids. In a discussion that I honestly can't believe never took place in the last seven years of Kourtney's relationship with Scott Disick, the oldest Kardashian sister admits that she would love to have a whole bunch of kids. She threw around six as a possible number. When Scott seemed completely against the idea, Kourtney said that she wasn't going back on birth control because she "doesn't believe in it anymore," but that her fiance could use a condom whenever he wanted. Or ya know, they could just stop having sex. More

Kick deeply ingrained habits in 7 simple steps with Melbourne's leading Hypnotherapists
Change is hard when your subconscious is holding you back
Have you tried again and again, only to fail and fall back into old habits? You're not alone. 80% of our behaviour is triggered by our subconscious mind.

Book Reviews
The answer is that this book has long been needed. The Connecticut edi-
tor-politician had such an important role in Civil War developments that
to let his reputation rest on previous works would do him an injustice. It
would likewise constitute a failure to recreate significant northern-war-effort
and Lincolnian dimensions. For, as John Niven points out, Welles--and
not Gustavus Vasa Fox-did run the Navy Department. And in several
ways Secretary and Mrs. Welles were closer than any other cabinet couple
to Abraham and Mary Lincoln.
In limited terms of sentences and paragraphs, Niven writes engagingly.
More consequential is the literary craftsmanship that enabled him to con-
struct a well-organized and attractive book from what at times must have
seemed an appalling sprawl of source materials. While flashbacks are some-
times employed in the pre-I86i coverage, most of it is straightforward and
sustained. Treatment of the cabinet period could be called episodic had
the author not been remarkably artistic in terms of selectivity and presenta-
tion. Thus not only persons fascinated by "The War" but appreciators of
fine biography in any era have a treat to savor.
Welles was less anticipatory than Confederate Secretary of the Navy
Stephen R. Mallory when it came to ironclads in 1861 and early 1862.
He made comparatively few other mistakes of omission and commission,
while accounting for many major achievements. He lacked the prewar
prominence of a Seward, the impressive presence of a Chase, the drive and
cunning and (seemingly) the stamina of a Stanton. Yet, neither a zealot
nor a timeserver nor a presidential aspirant, Welles proved an extraordi-
narily sound adviser during numerous crises. He served Andrew Johnson as
intelligently and as loyally as he had previously served Lincoln.
Relevant secondary contributions of the volume include (I) Niven's
assessment of Connecticut life and politics for over half a century; (2)
analyses of long- and short-range national developments from Welles-Niven
points of view, and (3) scholarly integrations of Washington-Hartford gov-
ernmental concerns. Far outweighing other assets is the authentic and valu-
able Niven version of Lincoln's bewigged and bearded "Neptune," who
personified fidelity and conscientiousness in a testing time.

In pro sports, a season's success usually boils down to a single statistic: the number of wins.
In the NBA, it's not that simple for the rebuilding Orlando Magic.
Lose too many games, and the franchise would risk alienating its fans and stunting the growth of its young nucleus of guard Victor Oladipo, swingman Maurice Harkless, forward Tobias Harris and center Nik Vucevic.

Campus Quality:
There is always events going on around campus where you can find free food and free shirts, everyone loves getting free shirts.
Campus Quality:
It's a comforting place to be and study.
Party Scene:
It's Austin, what else can I say? There are a lot of places to eat and entertain yourself. Very fun place to be.
It was simple getting financial aid. The money they promised me was automatically applied to what I owed, and was very quick.
Campus Food:
So many options to choose from. There is a variety of things to choose from.
Transportation is excellent, and there are many modes of transportation to choose from.
Health & Safety:
The Health and Safety on campus is phenomenal! No criticisms whatsoever!
Campus Quality:
There are many places to study, but since the campus is very crowded with students on most days, it is difficult to find a seat anywhere! So I usually retreat back to my dorm to study. Also, green space is almost non-existent.
Campus Quality:
I have yet to find the thing that sets this campus apart from other settings. Diversity of the campus is perhaps the best thing I can conjure.
Off-Campus Housing:
There are many options available, but few offer the combination of safety, proximity and affordability.
Off-Campus Dining:
there are many options available. But as a college student, is difficult to find healthy and cost efficient alternatives.
Campus Housing:
I currently live in an off campus dorm. While it is not luxurious, it does provide great location and convenience of food in the cafeteria.
There weather is usually great!
There are minimal scholarships available for students through the university. Students will have to apply for private scholarships and grants if they wish to receive financial aid.
Local Area:
I don't have a chance to leave campus very much, because there are always many events to partake in, on-campus. However, Austin is a vibrant city, and those who do have a chance to leave campus come back with only positive reviews. There are many museums and parks surrounding the campus area, within walking distance, which provide for a nice getaway from the campus, or substitute for a natural and peaceful study environment.
The current neuroscience program is a bit tedious and it is a challenge to incorporate into an already busy schedule. While it adds to the rigor of undergraduate coursework, it can at times seem burdensome atop the long list of medical pre-requisites. As the program is new to the university, there are to additional requirements to apply to neuroscience program, and I encourage all students to consider this degree option. As always, be ready to work diligently and try not to be discouraged by the round-the-clock studying!
Overall Experience:
The academic enthusiasm on campus is minimal. I wish to have seen more innovative thought processes regarding real world issues, and collaborative student involvement to improve campus standards. There is a tremendous school spirit about the environment however, and it is wonderful to see current students and alumni representing the school passionately.
Local Area:
As everyone knows. Austin is the "music capital" and as expected, there is always some form of concert or the other that can be attended. One major downside, as with every major city, is the traffic.
I was not required to show up with different documents like I was at my previous school.
Campus Food:
The on campus dining options are fantastic, they are multiple place to go and grab food and they offer a very diverse menu to choose from given the diversity of the university.
Campus Quality:
There is so much to do on campus, and everything is provided that there really is no need to go off campus for anything.
Campus Quality:
The fact that its in the music capital of the world, and that it provides top notch education to produce some of this countries top workers.
The staff on campus are strict because the college has a reputation to maintain.
Greek Life:
I don't really interact with the Greeks but from what I see from them, they help out the community and throw great parties.
Overall Experience:
I love this school, and the city is great, the only thing that bothers me is that fact that im far away from my family who I love and miss.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
Most students agree that they have loved their time here at UT, and they wouldn't want to be anywhere else. College is the best time of your life, and I can't think of a better place to spend it than at the University of Texas. Students get a great education while having an awesome college town with everything at their disposal. Don't try to graduate early. Enjoy your time at UT—go cheer on the Longhorns at all the home games for all sports: football, basketball, baseball, intramurals.

I came to UT convinced that I was going to transfer to a school in California in the spring. I spent two days here before school started and I never wanted to leave, even to go home and visit my parents and high school friends! I couldn't leave because I was always afraid that I would miss something because there was always something exciting going on. If you are worried about the fact that UT is so big, don't. All you have to do is find your niche, and everything else should fall into place. You can find it within your dorm, apartment, organization, fraternity, sorority, or classmates. Although, at times, it may seem overwhelming, UT is not nearly as big as it sounds. All you have to do is make friends, which you will, and the campus will seem infinitely smaller. Come join us!

Instant Replay: Nationals 4, Phillies 3
Instant Replay: Nationals 4, Phillies 3
Jeremy Hellickson did everything he could Monday night to stop the bleeding a rough road trip through Detroit and Chicago provided the Phillies.
But the usually consistent Hector Neris had his worst inning of the year and Washington pounced.
The Nationals scored three runs in the top of the eighth inning and snapped a four-game losing streak to the Phillies with a 4-3 win on Monday at Citizens Bank Park.
Jayson Werth's two-out RBI single plated the tying run in the top of the eighth to even the score at 2-2. Neris then walked Chris Heisey to load the bases for Daniel Murphy, who homered earlier. He delivered with the crushing blow, a two-run single that put the Nationals ahead for good.
Jonathan Papelbon, whom the Phillies have had success against at Citizens Bank Park, worked around back-to-back doubles by Maikel Franco and Ryan Howard to start the ninth inning and to pick up his 14th save of the season.
Papelbon fanned pinch-hitter Tommy Joseph with a slider, blew a fastball by Cesar Hernandez and got Tyler Goeddel to line out to second base to end the game.
The Phillies, now losers in eight of 10, saw their record fall to 26-25. On Tuesday, they'll try to avoid falling to .500 for the first time since April 26.
Starting pitching report
In a pitcher's duel against Washington's Tanner Roark, Hellickson was dominant in seven innings of work. He needed just 79 pitches in those innings before being lifted for a pinch-hitter in the bottom of the seventh inning.
For the fifth straight time, Hellickson held his opponents to three runs or less. He struck out eight Nationals and scattered just three hits while not issuing a walk. Hellickson left the game in line for the win, but the Phillies' usually efficient bullpen faltered.
Hellickson struck out the side in the sixth inning, which ended with Werth swinging through a breaking ball.
Bullpen report
Neris entered Monday having not given up a run since May 6, a streak of nine and 2/3 innings. He started off by striking out Wilson Ramos with his nasty splitter.
Neris then walked Danny Espinosa before getting pinch-hitter Clint Robinson to line out for the inning's second out. But command continued to be an issue. Neris walked Ben Revere to keep the inning alive for Werth, who made him pay. And then Murphy made it worse.
Jeanmar Gomez came on to clean up the eighth inning and then pitched a perfect ninth inning.
At the plate
The Phillies used their small ball ways to score the game's first run in the bottom of the second. Back-to-back one-out walks of Hernandez, who would steal second and reach third on a wild pitch, and Goeddel put runners on the corners for Hellickson, who executed a perfect sacrifice safety squeeze bunt to score Hernandez.
After Washington tied the game at 1-1 on a Murphy home run, the Phillies struck back in the bottom of the sixth with a Freddy Galvis homer on a 1-2 slider down in the zone. Galvis went down to get the pitch and drove it to the right field seats for what turned out to be the game-winning run.
Howard, who was given the start at first base after sitting Sunday, was 0 for 3 with a pair of strikeouts and a long flyout to deep right-centerfield before he smashed an RBI double to follow up Franco's double to kick off the ninth inning.
In the field
Howard's leaping catch of Ramos' line drive to end the second inning helped keep the Nationals off the board early.
Goeddel, who made that game-ending throw to the plate a few weeks back, again showed off his arm in the top of the seventh inning. With Bryce Harper on first base after being hit by a Hellickson fastball in the knee, Murphy, moments after hitting a home run foul and out of play, drove a pitch toward the gap in left-centerfield.
Goeddel closed on it and quickly fired to first. Harper, slow getting back to the base, was doubled off as Howard deceptively waited to show his glove until the ball neared. Washington manager Dusty Baker challenged the play, but a review that lasted two minutes and 15 seconds confirmed the call on the field.
Franco made a catch in the eighth inning similar to Howard's. Robinson sent a line shot over the head of Franco, who made a full-extension grab with his glove. He appeared to injure his left shoulder on the play but remained in the game.
Asche on the way?
Cody Asche, who continues to work his way back from an oblique injury, went 1 for 4 Monday afternoon with a home run - his second during his rehab assignment - in Lehigh Valley's 6-4 win over Norfolk.
Asche's 20-day rehab assignment concludes Wednesday. Phillies manager Pete Mackanin said the club would look at Asche then and said it's a "possibility" the 25-year-old joins the Phillies after.
Up next
The Phillies continue their 10-game homestand on Tuesday with Aaron Nola (4-3, 2.86 ERA) facing off against Washington's Joe Ross (4-4, 2.52).
NL East Wrap: Mets SP Matt Harvey gets back on track in win over White Sox

NL East Wrap: Mets SP Matt Harvey gets back on track in win over White Sox
NEW YORK -- On the mound in the seventh inning for the first time this season, Matt Harvey gave up his first walk of the game and his second hit, leading to a sacrifice bunt and a second-and-third jam.
"You kind of think about the worst at that point," he said. "You start getting some negative thoughts that creep in your head."
But 11 days after disappointed fans at Citi Field booed him like a villain, the Dark Knight was back - at least for one afternoon.
Harvey retired Todd Frazier on a foulout and J.B. Shuck on a grounder to escape trouble, Neil Walker homered off Jose Quintana on the second pitch of the bottom half and the New York Mets beat Chicago 1-0 Monday to send the reeling White Sox to their seventh straight loss.
"Today's a big first step," Mets manager Terry Collins said.
Addison Reed and Jeurys Familia got six straight outs to complete the two-hitter, preserving Harvey's first win since May 8. Harvey struck out six, walked two and threw four pitches of 98-98.5 mph after not topping 97.5 mph previously this season. He threw 61 of 87 pitches for strikes (see full recap).
Mallex Smith's 3-run triple powers Braves past Giants
ATLANTA -- Mike Foltynewicz is showing he can be more than just a fastball pitcher - and that he can be part of the Braves' long-term rotation.
Foltynewicz continued his recent upswing by allowing only three hits and one run in six-plus innings, Mallex Smith hit a three-run triple and Atlanta beat Jeff Samardzija and the San Francisco Giants 5-3 on Monday.
The Braves survived San Francisco's two-run, ninth-inning rally. They have won three of four and are 5-21 at home, still easily the worst in the majors.
Foltynewicz (2-2) gave up a leadoff homer to Brandon Belt in the second inning, but allowed only one other runner to advance to second.
Foltynewicz, 24, has had other recent strong starts, including eight scoreless innings in a 5-0 win at Kansas City on May 14. His start on Monday may have been his most impressive demonstration of altering the speeds of his fastball while mixing in a curveball and slider (see full recap).
Locke tosses three-hit shutout against Marlins
MIAMI -- Jeff Locke tossed a three-hitter and the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Miami Marlins 10-0 on Monday night.
Gregory Polanco's grand slam, Sean Rodriguez's two-run homer, and David Freese's four hits helped power the offense for the Pirates, who won the first of a four-game series in Miami. The first two games were originally scheduled to be played in Puerto Rico, but were moved due to concerns of the Zika virus.
Locke (4-3) struck out one and did not walk a batter while throwing 67 of 105 pitches for strikes. It was his first complete game in 101 career starts. Locke retired 19 straight at one point and needed just six pitches to get through the seventh inning.
The announced crowd of 10,856 was a season-low for the Marlins, who entered the day averaging just under 20,000.
Gary Bettman talks NHL expansion, missing Ed Snider's presence, 2018 Winter Olympics
Gary Bettman talks NHL expansion, missing Ed Snider's presence, 2018 Winter Olympics
PITTSBURGH -- NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman offered no clues on Monday during his annual Stanley Cup Final address as to the state of NHL expansion or the current odds that Las Vegas gets a franchise.
The league's Board of Governors will meet on June 22 to make a decision on expansion. The earliest a team(s) could play would be 2017-18.
Quebec City is also in the running, but the value of the Canadian dollars weighs heavily against another team being added north of the border at the moment.
If a Vegas franchise is added, it would have a direct impact on Pacific Division clubs such as the Sharks, who take on the Penguins in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final Monday night at CONSOL Energy Center.
Bettman refused to "handicap" the situation but said he expected to know at least a week in advance as to what the committee's recommendation will be.
Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly said there are "a lot of on-going" issues related to expansion and some involve input from third parties.
"We've made good progress ... it hasn't been quick progress," Daly said.
Asked about rumors of the NFL, specifically the Oakland Raiders, going to Vegas and what that impact would mean to hockey, Bettman said he hasn't even broached the topic of having two pro sports there with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell or even considered such.
"If the NFL comes to Vegas at some point, so be it," Bettman said. "We're judging the application we have before us on the merits of that application."
Bettman said the thought the NFL moving to Vegas, in his opinion, wasn't "anywhere close to a done deal."
Daly added that even if there is movement by the NFL toward Vegas, it would not be seen as a "deterrent" to the NHL expanding there.
Snider not replaced
Bettman said that former Flyers chairman Ed Snider's spot on the 10-person executive and competition committees has not been filled since Snider's death in April.
Snider was an original member of the league's competition committee and the only owner on it.
"He was a great owner and is terribly missed," Bettman said.
More Olympic issues
IOC President Thomas Bach and IIHF President Rene Fasel have gone on record they want to end paying the out-of-pocket expenses for NHL players to attend the Olympics.
That's a non-starter for the NHL if both organizations want participation of the NHL's players at the 2018 Winter Olympics in South Korea. The practice of subsidy has been in effect for the past five Winter Olympics.
"If they are unable to resolve the issue, I have no doubt it will have an impact on our decision," Bettman said, adding the NHL would have to take a hard look at continued Olympic participation since its member clubs aren't interested in putting up the "many, many millions" it would take to make up the financial gap.
Whenever there is change in the IOC leadership, Bettman said, there are always discussions of whether some sports, such as hockey, should receive subsidies.

Cassandra Nelson is no stranger to conflict and crisis, having worked for Mercy Corps in hot spots all over the world, including Afghanistan, Iraq, Gaza, Pakistan and Darfur.
Cassandra Nelson is no stranger to conflict and crisis, having worked for Mercy Corps in hot spots all over the world, including Afghanistan, Iraq, Gaza, Pakistan and Darfur.
But as she spent November in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, she was immediately struck by two things: how much violence is still raging there, and how rich the potential is if the country can move beyond it.
"It's a spectacular country," she said, "lush and mountainous and everywhere you look are flowers. One moment you see that vista, and then you turn your head the other direction and see some of the worst human suffering you've seen in your life… you just think how can this all be in one place?"

More than a decade of fighting has claimed at least 5 million lives and left more than a million people displaced, pushed into makeshift camps to seek refuge. The war has caused nearly seven times the number of deaths of the 1994 genocide in neighboring Rwanda, according to the Portland-based humanitarian group. The worst violence has been in eastern Congo, near Goma, the capital of Nord-Kivu province.
Recently "there's been a real perception that things have stabilized," Nelson said, but "the moment you leave Goma, things have not changed one bit. Every night there are gunfights and people getting killed."
Women and girls in eastern Congo have paid a terrible price.
Rape has become so common "it is almost a fact of life," Nelson said. "They're terrified of it but sometimes I get the sense they think it's unavoidable. It's happened to everyone."
As women go out to collect firewood for light, heat and cooking, they risk attacks by militia in the jungles and sometimes by government soldiers, too, she said. "Out in those woods there are a lot men with guns. It's either rape or it's harassment — people stealing their wood or beating them."
The conflict has also taken a heavy toll on the environment. A recent UN study estimated that two thirds of the Congo Basin Forest will have disappeared within 30 years if the present rate of deforestation continues. Illegal logging and charcoal production remain a lucrative industry used to finance the ongoing conflict and buy guns for rebel militia groups, Nelson said. The strain on resources is even more severe as desperate people move into new areas and set up camps.
"First they're going out one kilometer and pretty much everyone has picked those," Nelson said. "In some places women go out 14 kilometers. People are literally spending half their day collecting wood."
Mercy Corps is applying a practical solution to address both environmental destruction and women's security — a fuel efficient stove.
The simple stoves can be made from sand, clay and brick found locally, and they consume less than half the wood of traditional cooking fires. That means women don't have to leave the relative safety of the camps as often.
About 30,000 stoves have been made through the Mercy Corps program and 10,000 distributed this year, Nelson said. Women are also learning to make briquettes from manure and other refuse, which burn more cleanly and are cheaper than charcoal. Besides saving trees, the stoves and briquettes provide a way to earn income for women who make and sell them.
So far Mercy Corps has trained 360 people to pass on the stove building knowledge to more women. "As they go home they take skills back and introduce this method to their villages," Nelson said.
The stoves have generated $160,000 worth of credits in the carbon market from the reduction in carbon emissions, she said. Mercy Corps uses the proceeds to teach women living in camps vocational skills, including animal husbandry, beekeeping and horticulture.
While the country continues to struggle with conflict and corruption, progress is measured in reducing danger and harm.
In the future, she said, "if the violence can ever be brought under control, it is a country with amazing natural resources and so much potential."

U.S. Grant hosting booster club dinner Thursday
One of the efforts of the U.S. Grant football coaching staff, most of which has been intact going on four seasons now, has been to reconnect with the alumni and community around the school to build support for the athletic programs through the formation of a booster club.
On Thursday night, the school leaders will host the second annual Generals' Club Dinner to support athletics at U.S. Grant.
School leaders are inviting alumni and members of the community to a dinner at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, hosted at Oklahoma City Community College at 7777 S. May Ave. in Oklahoma City. The dinner will be held in the College Union Room.

Center Grove was able to match Brownsburg's speed and athleticism Thursday afternoon, but the Trojans struggled trying to shut down the Bulldogs' dominant inside game.
Playing in the consolation game of the Franklin Central Holiday Tournament, the Trojans' girls squad dropped a 61-50 decision.
For the Bulldogs, senior center Stephanie Mavunga had a game-high 24 points and 20 rebounds.
"You're not going to stop her, so our game plan was to take a gap defender and dig down while trying to get her to pick her dribble up," said Center Grove coach Shawn Sanders. "We just didn't have an answer for her today."
Rebounding in general was a challenge for Center Grove as Brownsburg posted a 45-23 advantage.
"They killed us on the boards," Sanders said. "You're not going to win games when you have a deficit like that."
Despite playing the Bulldogs even for most of the game, a slow start ultimately doomed the Trojans, who connected on just 17 of their 58 shots from the field.
Center Grove trailed by 10 points at the end of the game's opening quarter.
"We came out flat and were very timid," said Sanders. "I think the game against Franklin Central took a lot out of us."
Earlier in the same day, the Flashes advanced to their own tournament's title game by defeating the Trojans, 68-57, despite a 15-point effort by sophomore Bri Gliesmann.
"Franklin Central is very balanced and physical," Sanders said. "They're young, but savvy and they don't make mistakes. They make their free throws and are very fundamental. In my opinion, they're one of the top teams in the state."
Against Brownsburg, Center Grove trailed by 18 points midway through the third quarter before managing to trim the deficit to five. The Bulldogs briefly regained momentum in the fourth, but the Trojans again pulled within five before costly turnovers and fouls ultimately did them in.
"We got messed up a little on our rotations in the third quarter, but I'm very proud of our bench players because they came in and made a run for us. Overall, it didn't feel like we gave up, and that says a lot about this team. This was a growing game for us. Hopefully, it will help us get ready for the second half of the season," Sanders said.
Senior Lauren Weidman led the Trojans with 14 points against the Bulldogs.
Franklin Central won the tourney with a 53-51 victory against Mooresville.

With our state financially strapped and every department forced to give back money -- building projects has been put on hold. But there's one community college dedicating a new student center that has been 40 years in the making.
The Craig Goess Student Center on the campus of Pitt Community College has been open since January -- but Monday local and state dignitaries were on hand for dedication ceremonies.
It cost more than $6 million and is designed to be a one-stop-shop location to students for enrollment, the cashier's office and cultural enrichment.
The building is named for the person who donated a half a million dollars to help get this center off the ground, Greenville Toyota owner Craig Goess.
Bond referendum money funded the majority of the project as well as the donation of funds and landscaping.

Fitting this lamp in "spot"cases
I would like to replace regular lamps currently mounted in "spot light" bodies with this G4 6W Led Spot bulb. For "spot light bodies" I mean the ones mounted usually in false ceilings or on the top of mirrors in the bathrooms.
I know that I will have to change the connector and provide 12v DC, but I am not sure this LED lamp will fit in the spot light I have, as I see the connector is on the side and not in the back.
Will I be able to fit it and direct the LED side to the front of the spot light?
Thank you.
Best regards,

Power supply for these LED
Another question.
The information: These bulbs are 6 watts, 12 volts, I ordered two (2) of these led bulbs and I want to hook these two (2) bulbs to the same power supply.
6 watts times two (2) is 12 watts, at 12 volts that is 1 amp (1000 miliamps) they require to be powered.
My questions is this, do the led bulbs have built in current regulation in their circuitry to prolong the LEDs life and prevent damage? Can I hook them to any 12 volt DC led power source even if it provides more than 1amp (12 watts), as long as it provides at least 1 amp (12 watts?) required minimum.
I have a 12 Volt DC led power supply that provides 3amp (3000 milliamps maximum).
Dose my power source have to provide exactly 1amp (12watts) minimum and maximum?
Or will any 12 volt DC led power supply work as long as it meets the minimum required current (amps).
Thanks so much!

On Monday night, Lincoln Center welcomed its Young Patrons for a celebration to benefit audience development initiatives at the beloved performing arts complex. This year, the event drew over 600 guests and raised more than $110,000 for the foundation. It may have been a black tie affair (not to mention a school night), but the DJ had party-goers hitting the dance floor in no time. For those who were looking for something a bit tamer, the event conveniently coincided with the opening night of the Metropolitan Operas season, allowing guests to mingle on Avery Fisher Halls outdoor balcony and watch the debut performance of Anna Bolena projected on a large screen in the courtyard.
Though New York Fashion Week recently ended, fashion played a major role in the evenings festivities thanks to the events sponsor, Rent the Runway, who dressed over 70 of the guests in chic looks from designers including Proenza Schouler, Thakoon, and Zac Posen. With the recent move of NYFW from Bryant Park to Lincoln Center, fashion has become a major priority in the centers development initiatives.

Functions, Graphs, and Limits
Slant Asymptotes
A slant asymptote, also known as an oblique asymptote, is an asymptote that's a straight (but not horizontal or vertical) line of the usual form y = mx + b (in other words, a degree-1 polynomial). A function with a slant asymptote might look something like this:
If a function f(x) has a slant asymptote as x approaches ∞, then the limit does not exist, because the function must grow without bound to stay close to the slant asymptote.

Development of a Technology to Increase the Availability of Human Oocytes for Use in Regenerative Medicine
Human embryonic stem (hESC) cells are one of the most promising tools for treating numerous human diseases. To use hESC in regenerative medicine, it will be necessary to derive lines of hESC that are immunologically compatible with patients. The most promising way to achieve this would be use of somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT), in which the nucleus from a patientís cell is transferred into an enucleated oocyte. The oocyte can then be activated to develop into a blastocyst from which a line of patient specific hESC would be derived. The hESC could then be differentiated into the appropriate cell type for treatment. However, a major critical barrier prevents the implementation of the above technology. This barrier is the lack of sufficient human oocytes to development methods for SCNT.
Our goal is to develop and evaluate a technology that will increase the availability of human oocytes and thus enable us to cross this critical barrier and move forward toward development of patient specific therapies using hESC. We propose to grow and mature follicles to produce mature human oocytes that can be used for SCNT. This technology will have two major benefits. First, it will overcome the shortage of human oocytes needed for SCNT. Secondly, it will establish a method for culturing human ovarian follicles to maturity. It probably will be possible in the future to derive follicles with oocytes from hESC. When this becomes possible, the method for follicle culture that we develop will be in place.
Our strategy is to compare and evaluate two methods of culture that enable maintenance of the three dimensional architecture of the follicle. These methods are alginate encapsulation of follicles that are then cultured in dishes vs. culture of follicles in low shear bioreactors. A progression of experiments is planned that will establish the most efficient method for producing high quality oocytes in culture. We will first determine if alginate encapsulation facilitates growth in bioreactors. The results of this experiment will determine if follicles grown in bioreactors are encapsulated in the following experiments. We will then compare growth of alginate encapsulated follicles to follicles grown in bioreactors. Finally we will determine if collagen I, a protein that facilitates follicle growth in mice, can also improve follicle growth in humans. In each experiment, we will monitor three types of endpoints: (1) morphological (e.g. follicle diameter over time, number of mature oocytes), (2) physiological (level of steroid and peptide hormones in culture media), (3) functional (formation of blastocysts following activation of oocytes or SCNT).
The increased availability of human oocytes that our technology will provide is crucial to the development of future technologies using SCNT and subsequent therapeutic treatment of patents with stem cells.
In November 2004, the voters of California passed Proposition 71 by a large margin indicating the importance of stem cell technology to citizens of our state. Stem cell technology is one of the most promising approaches for treatment of numerous degenerative diseases, such as diabetes and Parkinson's disease, in humans. Most, perhaps all, citizens of California would find direct or indirect benefit from biomedical advances and eventual treatment of disease by stem cell technology. Even young citizens, who currently do not have major medical problems, could benefit in the event of future illness or accidents. Development of hESC technology and its application to disease will also contribute to the overall economy of the state by creating opportunities for the formation of new biotechnology companies and by stimulating growth of existing companies.
If hESC are to be applied to treatment of human disease, it will be necessary to derive lines of hESC that are patient specific to prevent immunological rejection. Somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) would be the most probable method to achieve derivation of patient specific stem cells. However, the lack of enough human oocytes to develop and use SCNT presents a major critical barrier to development of hESC technology for therapeutic applications. The goal of our proposal is to overcome this shortage of human oocytes and remove this critical barrier so that hESC therapy can be developed to benefit the citizens of California.

Yankee Boy Basin Route—use of this route will help to reduce impacts to this Fourteener's fragile alpine environment. For detailed route information including pictures, maps, and elevation profiles, click here.
Route Information and Additional Resources
South of Ouray, CO leave US 550 and go west on Colorado 361 for 7 miles to the old town of Sneffels. Hike the continuing rough jeep road from the town of Sneffels into the upper Yankee Boy Basin. The route travels through Yankee Boy Basin and cuts off north from the Blue Lakes Pass Trail. The final approach is up a couloir on the southeast side of Sneffels.
The above information does not replace the need to consult additional maps and Colorado Fourteener Guidebooks for more detailed route descriptions. We suggest checking multiple resources before departing on any hike. Keep in mind that not all guidebooks list this recommended route and that each guidebook's description or route name may vary slightly.
Peak Specific Environmental and Safety Concerns
Much of the land in Yankee Boy Basin is privately owned. Respect the rights of these landowners. Camping is not allowed on private land unless written permission has been obtained from the owners. Camping is allowed at the Amphitheater Campground in Ouray, Ridgeway State Park, and various other campgrounds in Ouray and Ridgeway. Dispersed camping is available along Canyon Creek southwest of Ouray. Protect the historic mining structures on these lands.
Minimize Campfire Impacts. Open fires are discouraged, especially in Yankee Boy Basin where wood is scarce. Campfires are prohibited in the Blue Lakes drainage of the Mount Sneffels wilderness.
Yankee Boy Basin is a popular jeep tour area. At times parking areas can be congested. Car-pooling is recommended. Drive or park only on roads and previously impacted parking sites.
Properly dispose of human waste. There is one composting toilet available for use along the road into Yankee Boy basin. If unable to use the toilet, please use proper Leave No Trace practices (i.e. below timberline, bury waste in a "cat hole" and pack out toilet paper. Above timberline, pack out all solid human and dog waste).
Plan for highly variable weather and exercise safety around other climbers. Be cautious of rolling rocks.
