Bad Points
General Comments
The KitchenAid KSB5 BNK Ultra Power is the best blender I have ever owned, and I have owned many.
It cleans easily, and looks great in my kitchen.
Over all a brilliant machine.

Comics are a visual medium, and some images grab your attention at the outset. In the case of writer/artist Matthew Petz's War of the Woods, I liked the story from the moment I saw a live turtle being used as the otter Phin's helmet.
The digital series, which reveals an alien invasion of Earth from the perspective of an animal kingdom, has completed two seasons (both Season 1 and Season 2 are available on comiXology) with more on the horizon. Petz recently took some time to discuss how the series came into being and some of his plans for Season 3.

Hurricane 'Sandy' pollution response US Coast Guard unified command completes tank vessel lift on Staten Island, NY.
The tank vessel John B. Caddell is a 184-foot tanker ship that washed up on Staten Island as a result of high winds and floodwaters from Hurricane Sandy. The Caddell posed both an environmental and navigational threat to the New York waterways.
The Hurricane Sandy Pollution Response Unified Command lifted and transported the vessel from Front Street in Staten Island, thus removing that pollution threat to the environment.
The Coast Guard worked with New York City Sheriff's Department, the New York City Office of Emergency Management, New York State Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Services, New York Department of Environmental Conservation, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the Army Corps of Engineers and Donjon Marine to remove the tanker.
Donjon Marine's heavy-lift crane barge Chesapeake 1000 lifted the Caddell off the shoreline into the water to be checked for seaworthiness and then prepared for transport to the awaiting marine facility. The tanker was transported to a beach slip operated by Donjon Marine.
In the picture: U.S. Coast Guard Chief Petty Officer Bridgette Brown discusses the removal with Chief Petty Officer Melinda Bacon.

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Dec. 17, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- ConNEXTions 2013: A Frost & Sullivan Executive MindXchange, takes place on January 27 to 29, 2013 at the Stanford Court Renaissance Hotel in San Francisco, California. Participants will benefit from 17 interactive sessions, delving into the heart of their challenges, and providing actionable steps to improve the quality of their communications programs.
This premier event will include a Mover & Shaker interview with Ralph Loura, CIO, The Clorox Company. Loura is an IT leader well known for his strategic, far-reaching thinking on critical IT matters. He maintains there are two critical paths to achieving CIO goals. One is to take the steps necessary to prove IT's true value as a business enabler. The second is to move aggressively to embed IT directly into the business. The last includes evolving IT into a role as business enabler.
"In IT, there are many operational legacies. This type of legacy thinking includes the way we structure and deliver systems and value," said Loura. "We have to continually challenge ourselves to stay current, stay close to the business and understand their needs. Lastly, there needs to be a scan of the industry for solutions that fit into that need set, as opposed to solutions that fit our paradigm of how we've structured delivery in the organization."
Loura admits that "services-oriented architecture (SOA), will forward the cause of IT as a business enabler. With SOA, it's a question of how to take features, functions and capabilities from different disparate systems that were designed and operated in different ways, and brings them together to create a new model of a business process. SOA, is at the heart of the solution."
The task of embedding IT directly into the business may be the key to achieving end-to-end business insight to generate competitive advantage.
"Despite legacy IT technology issues, the bigger challenge is overcoming the human obstacles. In IT, people are rewarded and trained to be risk averse, as well as to build stable and controlled systems. It takes a certain mindset to compete at that front edge, while bringing technology to the business," said Loura.
Loura will join this high-level program that will be beneficial to senior level IT and telecommunications executives, particularly those in C-Level positions. The speakers at ConNEXTions 2013 are pillars in the information technology industry, from a variety of industries; including; healthcare, government, education, agriculture, finance, retail and manufacturing.
The core of this event is based on market trends found through Frost & Sullivan's industry research, in which the following four strategic event modules were created: Enterprise Mobility; Unified Communications & Collaboration; The Changing Face of Security; and Partnering for Success. A popular panel discussion at this event is "Building Momentum: Bring Your Own Device and The Consumerization of IT."

More and more companies are looking to microservices as an architectural pattern for breaking apart applications into more manageable pieces so that agile teams can deliver new features quicker and more effectively. What this pattern has done more than anything to date is spark organizational transformations, setting the foundation for future application development.

Gartner is now treating algorithms like they are some kind of innovative addition to the modern digital discussion. Presumably the brilliant minds there have some novel insight into algorithms and, yes, the Algorithm Economy that CIOs should sit up and take notice of. Not only are algorithms nothing new, but much of what Gartner is saying about them is obvious. The bigger picture here is that software continues to improve, and enterprises are becoming increasingly software-driven, in part bec...

In the rush to compete in the digital age, a successful digital transformation is essential, but many organizations are setting themselves up for failure. There's a common misconception that the process is just about technology, but it's not. It's about your business. It shouldn't be treated as an isolated IT project; it should be driven by business needs with the committed involvement of a range of stakeholders.

Blake Treinen pitched seven brilliant innings and Anthony Rendon hit his second home run in five days to lead the Harrisburg Senators to a 4-0 win over the Reading Fightin Phils in the first of a two game series at FirstEnergy Stadium. After dropping four straight, Harrisburg has bounced back with four consecutive victories.
It was the second shutout for the Sens pitching staff on the road trip, after they also beat Altoona 4-0 on Friday night. In the past 39 innings, the staff has given up just two earned runs. Over the past 23 innings pitched by the starters, they have allowed only one run with four walks and 20 strikeouts.
The Senators got on the board right away in the first inning with a two-out rally. Rendon started it with a double and Justin Bloxom drove him in with a single. They added two unearned runs in the fourth, again beginning the rally with two outs. Sean Nicol was credited with a bunt RBI single. The final run came on Rendon's homer, a long solo shot to dead center leading off the sixth.
After the first batter of the game for Reading reached with a single, Treinen retired the next twelve hitters he faced. The right-hander surrendered only four hits on the night, didn't walk a man, and struck out four to earn his first win. Neil Holland and Pat Lehman pitched the eighth and ninth, and each struck out the side.
Tomorrow, the Senators conclude their two-game series in Reading against the Fightin Phils. Game time is 6:35 p.m. and the game can be heard on 1460am The Ticket, on the Internet through the Senators website, and it's available through iHeartRadio beginning with the pregame show at 6:20 p.m.

Peng Liyuan: First lady of China and beautiful Chinese Folk Song Singer
Peng Liyuan, born on November 20, 1962, is one of the top Chinese folk music singers, and a performer popularized by her regular appearances on the annual CCTV New Year's Gala. She has obtained many honors in singing competitions nationwide.
Her most famous works include People from our Village (父老& #20065;亲), Mount Chomolungma (珠穆& #26391;玛) and On the Plains of Hope (在希& #26395;的田 ;野上). Peng Liyuan is a civilian member of China's People's Liberation Army and currently holds the civilian rank comparable to that of a major general.
Peng Liyuan (simplified Chinese: 彭丽&# 23195;; traditional Chinese: 彭麗&# 23195;; pinyin: Péng Lìyuán) is a native of Yuncheng County, Shandong. Peng joined the People's Liberation Army in 1980, when she was 18. She began as an ordinary soldier, although eventually with her vocal talent she began performing at PLA performances. Peng first performed nationally and came to fame during the earliest rendition of the CCTV New Year's Gala in 1982, when she performed On the Plains of Hope.
She graduated from the China Conservatory of Music in Beijing, holds both bachelor degree & master degree in traditional ethnic music from the institute.
Peng Liyuan is married to Xi Jinping (习近& #24179;) who is newly appointed as general secretary of CPC and will be Chinese president in March of 2013, which will make Peng Liyuan first lady of China. They have a daughter named Xi Mingze (习明& #27901;) born in 1992 and is now studying in Havard University.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Mobile Deep Linking Guide Helps Support Practice In Apps
Mark Walsh
, February 27, 2014, 9:00 AM
The ability to link to a specific section or piece of content on a Web site—deep linking—has become a ubiquitous feature of search and browsing online. But being able to click a link to specific content within a mobile app, or to launch an app, is still a nascent capability.
With people spending more and more time on mobile devices, and on apps in particular, the ability for consumers to open an app directly from a link—rather than driving to a site or app store—or a specific page within an app could be increasingly important for businesses and brands.
Some sites including Facebook and Twitter have already introduced mobile deep linking for opening their respective apps and linking to a users profile page or timeline. Twitter has also added the feature to its Cards platform, allowing companies to embed a link to content inside their app, or download it, depending on whether someone has the app installed already or not.
To help extend mobile deep linking more widely, a group of marketing technology companies including Criteo, TapCommerce and ActionX announced a specification and best practices guide to support the practice within apps. The Mobile Deeplinking Project aims to provide a common source of documents, sample code and SDKs to help enhance marketing campaigns.
The specification provides initial support for iOS and Android platforms, with support for Microsoft Windows eyed for release later this year.
"By providing a set of guidelines, tools and source code, we believe app developers will be able to enhance the user experience and increase app engagement," said Jason Morse, vice president, Mobile at Criteo, in announcing the initiative Wednesday. The French company in January extended its display ad business to mobile apps.
TapCommerce and Action X offer tools for mobile ad retargeting to boost app engagement. Also collaborating on the effort to expand deep linking are app analytics and advertising firm Flurry and mobile ad exchange MoPub, acquired by Twitter last September.
The group said all materials will be hosted at
to provide app developers a central location to learn about deep linking and participate in the development of the specification. All source code will also available on
. The participating companies plan to provide additional features based on community feedback.

Native Plants
Q. Who is Mr. Smarty Plants?
A: There are those who suspect Wildflower Center volunteers are the culpable and capable culprits. Yet, others think staff members play some, albeit small, role. You can torture us with your plant questions, but we will never reveal the Green Guru's secret identity.
Did you know you can access the Native Plant Information Network with your web-enabled smartphone?

From: Granbury, TX
Region: Southwest
Topic: Non-Natives, Seed and Plant Sources, Shrubs
Title: Search for non-native Rosa Rugosa for Granbury TX
Answered by: Barbara Medford
QUESTION:I would like to find an old fashioned Rosa Rugosa (non-hybrid) to grow in central Texas. I know I've seen them occasionally when traveling in the central TX area. I want them for their rose hips.
We also like the old-fashioned roses, but surprise, surprise, Rosa rugosa is not a native to North America. The Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center, home of Mr. Smarty Plants, is dedicated to the growth, propagation and protection of plants native only to North America but to the area in which those plant grow naturally. The reason for this is that plants that have grown for centuries in the same soils, climate and rainfall will require far fewer resources to prosper.
We do have a National Suppliers Directory, which you might try, as most of them are not restricted entirely to native plants. Enter your town and state or just your zip code in the "Enter Search Location" box, and you will get list of native plant nurseries, seed suppliers and consultants in your general area. You might also try the Antique Rose Emporium in Brenham, TX. We became addicted to them while living in Brenham some years ago, but did understand that "antique" did not mean "native."
If you follow the Rosa rugosa link, you will get a page with lots of information on this plant, including that it is native to China, Korea and Japan. Unfortunately, that is no help in determining how the rose would do in Hood County.

A measure that has the potential to raise purses at Canterbury Park
up to 40 percent overwhelmingly passed both houses of the Minnesota
legislature on Tuesday and awaits the signature of Governor Mark Dayton.
amendment to a bill allows a significant expansion of gambling at
Canterbury Park as well as Running Aces Harness Park. Under provisions
of the amendment, the maximum number of table games at the tracks can be
increased from 50 to 80; betting limits will rise from $60 to $100; the
limit on the number of poker tournaments and tournament tables the
tracks can run will be removed; and the rules of playing many of the
table games will change from being "player banked" to being "house
banked." In a player-banked game, poker players compete against one
another while paying a small fee per hand to the house. The switch to a
house-banked game would allow players to compete directly against the
house, the same way table games are played in Minnesota Native American
casinos as well as casinos around the country.

Software AG (Frankfurt TecDAX: SOW) today released its financial results (IFRS, preliminary) for fiscal year 2012. The company reported €1.05 billion (2011: €1.1 billion) in total group revenue thereby achieving its target for the year. Product revenue (licenses and maintenance) increased 5.7 percent to reach €712.2 million (2011: €673.9 million) in the period under review. Software AG implemented a number of operational and strategic measures in 2012 to set the course for further growth, including intensifying investments by €40 million in sales as well as research and development for the high-growth Business Process Excellence (BPE) division. The implemented growth-generating initiatives began bearing the first fruits during the year. The largest business line achieved a dynamic 15.5 percent growth in license sales. At the same time, the high-margin Enterprise Transaction Systems (ETS) business line developed more solidly than had been projected at the start of 2012. Group EBIT was €248.3 million (2011: €269.2 million) due to targeted investment expenses and lower revenue in the IDS Scheer Consulting (IDSC) line. The company's EBIT margin climbed steadily over the course of the year from 21.5 to 27.2 percent due to better-than-expected ETS performance, continuously increasing BPE license revenues and effective cost management. Software AG plans to make more dedicated investments in the high-growth BPE business and thus lay the foundation for further dynamic growth.
Karl-Heinz Streibich, CEO of Software AG, states, "2012 was a successful year of transformation for Software AG. We consolidated traditional areas of business and strengthened new areas of growth with increased investments. Our financial results, for example our dynamic revenue growth of more than 400 percent with the big data products, are a clear confirmation that we are right on track. Based on these positive experiences, we have developed a new growth strategy with the goal of reaching more than one billion euros in product revenue in the BPE business line in 2018."
Business Line Development
Software AG was able to increase group product revenue by 5.7 percent to €712.2 million (2011: €673.9 million) in fiscal 2012. It represents about 68 percent of total revenue, which was €1.05 billion (2011: €1.1 billion). The distribution of revenue thus shifted in favor of the company's growth-driving, high-margin license and maintenance revenue.
The BPE business line made the largest contribution with product revenue growth of 13.9 percent to total €384.7 million (2011: €337.8 million). License revenue growth reached 15.5 percent. This dynamic growth was propelled by sales of the big data products by Terracotta, a U.S.-based Software AG subsidiary. Revenue from these products more than quadrupled in 2012, totaling €16.5 million (2011: €3.6 million). About 54 percent of total product revenue was attributable to integration and process software or to innovative in-memory/big data solutions. Software AG's revenue is driven primarily by the BPE business line. This trend confirms the forward-looking direction of the company. Software AG set the course for further long-term, dynamic growth with an additional investment of €40 million in sales and marketing as well as in research and development.
The profitable ETS business line surpassed expectations considerably in the period under review. The traditional database business produced fairly stable results year on year with product revenue at €309.6 million (2011: €312.9 million). Total ETS revenue was €375.3 million (2011: €381.3 million) in fiscal 2012, down just 1.6 percent from last year.
Reorganization of the IDSC business line continued in 2012. The focal points were the withdrawal from unprofitable markets and an emphasis on the process side of SAP application consulting —particularly in German-speaking countries. These measures led to a decrease in revenue to €125.1 million (2011: €189.2 million). The sale of North American SAP-related service activities in January 2013 was a successful step forward in the realignment of IDSC.
Earnings Performance
Due to expenses associated with the expansion of sales in order to access new high-growth business areas, intensified investments in research and development, and expenses from the consolidation of the SAP consulting business, EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes) was down about 8 percent year on year to €248.3 million (2011: €269.2 million). At the same time, the EBIT margin improved steadily over the course of the year due to stable ETS performance and continuously increasing BPE revenues (Q1 2012: 21.5 percent; Q2 2012: 22.1 percent; Q3 2012: 23.7 percent; Q4 2012: 27.2 percent). With respect to the full fiscal year, the EBIT margin was 23.7 percent (2011: 24.5 percent) and thus in the top half of the forecast range. Net income after taxes totaled €164.7 million (2011: €177.2 million). Based on Software AG's total assets of approximately €1.8 billion as of December 31, 2012, the company's equity ratio was about 60 percent. Software AG reported net liquidity as of December 31, 2012 with a cash surplus (cash less financial liabilities) of €49.6 million.
According to CFO Arnd Zinnhardt, "Our bold investments, which began paying off in part during the year, enabled us to significantly strengthen the operational side of business in 2012. At the same time, our financial discipline allowed us to increase our EBIT margin over the course of the year and further optimize our balance sheet structure. This positions us ideally for further dynamic growth."
Software AG increased its product revenue by 4.0 percent to €196.8 million (2011: €189.2 million) in the fourth quarter of 2012. The BPE business line made the largest contribution to growth with a 12.2 percent increase in product revenue year-on-year at €113.7 million (2011: €101.3 million). ETS product revenue performed according to expectations with a slight decline of 4.3 percent to total €78.0 million (€81.5 million). As a result of the previously mentioned revenue reduction in SAP consulting (IDSC), total revenue for the Software AG group was down 5.9 percent year on year to €276.7 million (2011: €294.0 million) in the fourth quarter of 2012. Due to increased investments and expenses from the IDSC consolidation, fourth-quarter EBIT was €75.4 million (2011: €78.0 million).
As of December 31, 2012 Software AG had 5,419 (2011: 5,535) employees, of which 1,131 (2011: 1,023) worked in Sales and Marketing and 887 (2011: 887) in Research and Development. The total number of employees in Germany was 1,768 (2011: 1,881). The total number of employees working in Darmstadt as of December 31, 2012 was 733 (2011: 719).
Outlook for 2013
Software AG's outlook continues to be positive. For fiscal year 2013, it anticipates BPE product revenue growth between 16 and 22 percent (at constant currency) and a revenue decline in the traditional ETS database business between 4 and 9 percent (at constant currency). In light of the average growth forecast of about 10 percent in the promising BPE market, Software AG plans to gain market share and therefore continues investing in sales and marketing in the current fiscal year.
Through the additional investments in sustainable, dynamic growth for the high-potential BPE business, the BPE revenue contribution will account for about 80 percent of the company's total revenue in the year 2018. BPE product revenue is expected to reach €1 billion by that time. The company's early entrance into the future-oriented integration and process software market space as well as the big data market is paying off strategically and thus securing the company's long-term success.

The Cogsworth's Car Toot Spin attraction, merrily considered to be the best gray attraction at Disneyland
The Cogsworth's Car Toot Spin entrance is like a trip across the world of Toottown. The attraction cars are just like Benny the Cat, and while you drive you can spin them by twisting the tires.

New Location for Vegan Pizza in Farmingdale, NY
Popular New York pizza joint 3 Brothers Pizza Cafe offers a vegan menu and cruelty-free brunch.
New York's 3 Brothers Pizza Cafe was recognized by animal-welfare organization People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals in 2011 for its tasty cruelty-free pizza, and now Farmingdale residents can enjoy meatless pies and brunch by vegan chef Jay Astafa at the new location on Merritts Road. The original 3 Brothers was on Long Island before father-and-son duo Andy and Jay sold it. The new menu includes fan favorites Seitan Bacon Ranch Pie, orecchiette with broccoli rabe and Italian seitan sausage, and calamari made with oyster mushrooms. While the eatery isn't entirely plant-based, Jay announced plans to open a vegan pop-up restaurant, Jay Kitchen, in late April via Facebook.

Good Points
The company delivered on time and presented me with a value for money product. Very good customer service.
General Comments
I did not know what to expect when I paid for a logo design from Websquash Technologies. The designs presented to me blew my mind. The logos are absolutely brilliant. It is more than what I expected from the team based on the limited instructions received. However, I thought the major colour , Blue, of the company name would be darker but the colours, as it is, just simply blends perfectly together and the design fits in perfectly with what my company represents. Thank you to the design team for a job well done.
