Sometimes, when it's, like, 101 scorching degrees out and we're simply sweltering in the summer heat, we really wish we could rip our blouse and bra right off and bounce home from work topless as we catch a smidgen of a breeze.
Well, actually, no, we've never felt like that, but Moira Johnston wants you to have the right to bare your breasts, the Daily Beast reports, and she's on a scantily clad mission to let New Yorkers know they can ditch their tops if they want to.
The 29-year-old topless dancer calls herself a "topless activist," according to the website, and she's been strolling around Manhattan recently to draw attention to the fact that New York State law allows women to be topless in the same places men are allowed to be seen without a shirt on.
Like the yoga studio. Or the park. Or the street.
"I want women to know their rights and to give them the courage to go topless, too," Johnston tells the Daily Beast. "It's not that I want everyone to take off their shirt, but I'm supporting a woman's choice to do it and think every woman should do it on her own terms."
Hey, at least it would save on dry-cleaning bills.

My friend and I are planning to create a Calculator Robot which uses 4 lightsensors to 'read' numbers and operators.
Then he calculates according to whats on the scanned sheet of paper.
We planned on using Java scripts on an NXT robot.
The idea is that the numbers are displayed digital and fairly large, each sensor reads a certain aspect of the number (Number 1 reads upper body of the number. Number2 reads the mid section. Number 3 & 4 also read different aspects of the number to make sure they can distinguish the numbers 0 trough 9).
Then according to what they read the robot calculates and displays the outcome of the sum on the LCD display.
We only use numbers of 1 digits, so nothing above 9. And only the operators, +, -, : and x(*).
Is this doable?
In which I mean is it not of a too high level of difficulty to accomplish?
Any tips will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

I came across some more lost files I used in determining tasks, correctness, era, etc.. I figured they may possibly help someone else out someday.
When I was building my rear wheel assembly and about to mount the brake drum, I realized the OEM #4026-35 wheel lugs were the later type. This made them incorrect for my WLA year. I mentioned earlier in this topic where I scored the correct ones. Anyhow, later wheel lugs are smooth around the diameter of the hex drive end. Earlier are as the one shown below. Both earlier and later wheel lugs share the same part number. Note the groove around the area I mentioned.
Also correct for my WLA year is the #4026-35OS wheel lug shown below. This is an oversize wheel lug used when standard size wheel lug threads have either been stripped out, or damaged from running them loose. I forget the thread size of this oversize wheel lug. Though I had enough of them on hand at the time, I did not need to use them and I had the Ole Lady sell them. Luckily the threads were good in my OEM brake drum. I can tell you this though. The oversize wheel lug threads are huge in comparison to standard wheel lug threads.

Greens' Diseases & Insects (page 2 of 2)
by National Gardening Association Editors
Aphids and Friends
Aphids and leafhoppers can be a nuisance in some gardens. These insects can spread certain diseases among lettuce plants. Aphids are soft-bodied, pear-shaped and may be green, yellow or purple. Leafhoppers are light greenish-yellow, small but quite active. Spray with insecticidal soap at 10-day intervals to discourage these pests. Keep weeds under control in and around the garden since they can harbor leafhoppers.
The more pungent greens like chicory and curly cress seem to have fewer insect visitors than the milder-flavored ones.
For more information on identifying insects and diseases on your greens, and methods and products to control them, contact your local county Extension agent. He or she will be familiar with the problems that are most likely to be troublesome in your area.

Carla is a teen librarian at the Novato Library.
This is an official blog for the Marin County Free Library.
All branches of Marin County Free Library will be closed on Monday, July 4 for Independence Day.
Before we talk about the book 13 Reasons Why we thought it was important to mention that October is National Bullying Awareness Prevention Month.
Why the Novato Library First Thursday Book Club loves 13 Reasons Why by Jay Asher:
First of all this is a must read book as it is difficult to explain it's awesomeness. This story is about a 16 year old girl name Hannah who commits suicide. She leaves behind 13 audio tapes that get sent to 13 people, making it so that each person has to send it to the next person on the list. The story opens with a teenager named Clay receiving the tapes. As he begins to listen to the tapes he finds out that each of the tapes represents a person who was involved in the chain of events that finally leads to Hannah's suicide.
One thing that is really great about this book is that all the teenage characters are believable, they don't seem like some lame Gossip Girl type person that would never exist in real life. The story unfolds in a really compelling way, and there is pretty much no way to figure out how it is going to end. One thing we all liked is the way that the book illustrates how a small act of bullying can snow ball into something that gets totally out of control. This book really makes you think about how your actions can really harm someone even if they hide their feelings. Be warned that is definitely a mature read that covers some pretty harsh topics like bullying, date rape and suicide.
Some other books about bulling that we really loved:
Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson
Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver (seems like a fluff read but is really good)
Story of a Girl and Sweethearts both by Sarah Zarr
Hate List by Jennifer Brown
The Boyfriend List by E. Lockhart
Dear Bully: Seventy Authors Tell Their Stories
It Gets Better: Coming Out, Overcoming Bullying, and Creating a Life Worth Living by Dan Savage

Orlando Nightlife: What's going on tonight Orlando – Sept. 2 (or 90210)
Happy 90210 day! It seems this Orange County isn't celebrating like the one on the West Coast (understandably). But I would have loved to have posted a couple of 90210 parties for those of you, like me, that do watch the show (both of them). Yeah, keep the comments to yourself. Or you can post them below, I have a tough skin.
So on to this evening, I'll be hanging at Little Fish Huge Pond's open mike tonight. Supporting a musically apt friend of mine and enjoying the funky atmosphere that is Little Fish.
Whether music, art, or toga parties are your thing, I have a few suggestions for what you should do tonight.
Thomas Wynn & The Believers at Will's Pub: Will Walker, owner of Will's Pub, continues his 15th anniversary festivities tonight with American Aquarium, Ponderosa, Kaleigh Baker and the fabulous Thomas Wynn & The Believers. Anyone that has seen Thomas and his band on stage know how wonderful of an experience this is. I'll probably be stopping by after Little Fish. Doors open at 8 p.m. and it's $8 for the 21-and-up show.
Third Annual Back To School Toga Party at Revolution: You'll probably not see a lot of John Belushi-types at this toga party (although there will probably be some bears in the audience) but the Greek-theme will be alive and kicking. This is an annual event at the gay-friendly club and will include cash prizes for the sexiest toga costume, free wells from 11-11:30 p.m., $3 Long Island Iced Teas and $5 bomb shots. It's $5 (free with college or theme park IDs) and doors open at 9 p.m. for the 18-and-up party.
1st Thursdays: Eclectic Knights II at The Orlando Museum of Art: The OMA supports UCF at this annual event by featuring selected works created by UCF alumni and faculty in a variety of media. There is a cash bar and food provided by local restaurants from 6 – 9 p.m. Free parking and access to the rest of the museum is also a big plus. It's free for OMA members, but $10 for everyone else.

|WAC Player of the Week
DENVER – The Western Athletic Conference honored University of Idaho senior center Kyle Barone on Monday with its Men's Basketball Player of the Week honor for his efforts the week of Dec. 24-30.
Barone, a 6-10 center from Garden Grove, Calif. (Pacifica HS), led Idaho to a 71-64 comeback victory in its WAC opener at Seattle U on Saturday. With junior guard Stephen Madison, the team's leading scorer, hampered with foul troubles all night, Barone scored a career-high-tying 25 points and grabbed a season-high-tying 11 rebounds, despite double- and triple-teams from the Redhawk defense most of the night.
The win moved Idaho to 5-0 in WAC road openers since head coach Don Verlin took over in the 2008-09 season and gave Idaho a WAC-opening win for the third time under Verlin.
A preseason All-WAC honoree, Barone went 8-of-15 from the floor and converted nine of his 11 free throw attempts in 38 minutes of play. He scored 16 of Idaho's 38 second-half points in the game, including nine points in a row for Idaho at one point. In his last three games, Barone is averaging 21.3 points and 9.0 rebounds on 71.0 field goal shooting and .909 free throw shooting.
The honor is the first by a Vandal this season and the third of Barone's career. He was selected as the WAC Player of the Week twice last season.
Barone and the Vandal men return to action next weekend at San Jose State on Thursday, Jan. 3 and at Utah State on Saturday, Jan. 5.

It's my belief we met in heaven and then we met on earth. It all started in High School at a fall dance. November of 1979. I noticed him across the dance floor and his eyes met mine. I smiled, maybe winked, looked away, he had me right then….and that was all I wrote. It was a "life will never be the same moment", we just didn't know it then. I gave my friend Diana a note with my phone number and asked that she give it to him. She happily did! He called me and within a few days we had our first date, November 25, 1979.
We were together for 6 months, until we graduated. As I read my yearbook, and I quote, "this has been the best six months of my life". That's what he wrote. However, he enlisted in the Air Force and I wasn't having it, so I broke up with him. By the time I realized I should not have acted so hastily it was too late, he would not forgive me or take me back. We kept in touch but he avoided getting back together like a plague.
The rest is a very interesting journey. We both lived, we both married, we both divorced, we both grew up. He forgave me finally. He opened the door to second chances. A beautiful circle and here we are today 30 years to the date of our very first date, married November 25, 2009.


text: Our Father Obama, which art in Washington, DC, hallowed be they holy name. Thy liberal kingdom come, thy socialistic Will be done, in all the world, as it is in America. Give us this day our daily entitlements, and forgive us for any obligations for what you have already given us. And, lead us not into temptation by those on the political right, but deliver us from conservatives. For thine is the American kingdom, and all political power, and the glory strictly for you, forever. Amen.

Of all places Wikipedia. So take it at face value. :wink:
Brief summary of the info indicates the .450 Bushmaster is a modified .45 Professional developed by LeMag Firearms. The parent cartridge is 1.77", where the .450 Bushmaster is 1.70" to handle the Hornady ballistic-tip bullet. Both are apparently based on the .284 case, with a rebated rim, presumably for use with the AR bolt.
A quick glance at the Handloader's Manual of Cartridge Conversions indicates the .284 Winchester measures 1.775" from the base up to the bottleneck. Therefore, it appears that the conversion is as simple as cutting the .284 at the bottleneck, and you have a .45 Professional round. Trim it to 1.70" and you have .450 Bushmaster brass. I don't know if neck reaming is necessary but it probably is.
The base of the .284 Winchseter is .473". Yes, that's the same as a .30-06/.308 family round. Therefore, one would expect that -06 brass couls be converted to .450 Bushmaster by "simply" cutting to 1.70".
Things that make you go HRM.
I can't find anything on the "45 Professional" parent cartridge no on the LeMAG company. Every search gets hits for "L E MAG" articles.
Here are the source quotes:
The .450 Bushmaster (parent cartridge is the 45 Professional) rifle/cartridge conversion, was developed by Tim LeGendre of LeMAG FIREARMS LLC., and licensed to Bushmaster Firearms International LLC., for production and distribution. LeGendre still retains ownership. The 450 Bushmaster is designed to be used in the standard M-16/AR-15 platform, using standard magazines.
Bushmaster asked Hornady to produce the 45 Professional ammunition for this project, Hornady agreed. Hornady wanted the 45 Professional shortened, to accommodate their Venerable 250gr., Pointed, SST bullet. Hornady asked Bushmaster for the change (1.771" to the now standard 1.700"), Bushmaster asked LeGendre to sign off on that change, and he did. Bushmaster eventually wanted a name change and LeGendre agreed, to what has now become the popular 450 BUSHMASTER.
Based on a concept by Col. Jeff Cooper (Thumper), the goal was to provide guaranteed one-shot kills on Big Game animals at 250 yards, with a large bore semi-auto (44 cal or larger). Col. Cooper upon being presented with the early 45 Professional stated??this is Thumper Senior?I can now own an AR-15?. A 45 Pro was indeed built for Col. Cooper, by LeMAG, pretty good considering his disdain for the AR-15 in 5.56 NATO. Hornady, with its extreme expertise, busted the Cooper 250yd limit. The result is the 450 BUSHMASTER, a semi-auto rifle/cartridge combination that absolutely provides more than enough stopping power to adequately kill all Big Game in North America.
I came across only one other reference on a blog page, again take it at face value:
It has been called to my attention that when I referred to the "45 Professional" cartridge dreamed up by Tim LeGendre, I should have said that it was based on the 284 case, rather than the 280 case. The 284, with its rebated rim, permits a slightly larger powder capacity than the 280.

Today marks the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, when more than a quarter million people converged in the then largest demonstration in the United States capital. It was a triumph of unity and a moment – like many revolutionary episodes – that seized on the power of song to help make sense of its gravitas. The diverse cast of voices on August 28, 1963 included Marian Anderson, Joan Baez, Bob Dylan, and Peter, Paul and Mary. However, it was gospel legend Mahalia Jackson who, at the request of Martin Luther King Jr., helped set the stage for among the world's greatest recordings: the "I Have a Dream" speech.
"If [Martin Luther] King gave the movement a vision, Mahalia Jackson gave it a voice," wrote history and culture scholar Craig Werner in A Change is Gonna Come: Music, Race & the Soul of America.
The inimitable voice of 1997 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductee Mahalia Jackson resonated far and wide, her bracing soprano and interpretation of gospel making her a familiar name among black and white audiences. She found stardom without making secular songs, becoming the first gospel artist to sing at Carnegie Hall in ...
In 1975, Ronnie Wood replaced Mick Taylor as guitarist for the Rolling Stones. It was another turning point for the band: "Ronnie was damn good glue for the band. He was a breath of fresh air," said Richards. He and Richards went back to the band's default rhythmic style, playing together to create the sound of a single intricate guitar. This compositional style had not been played consistently since Brian Jones' tenure in the band. Wood helped to revitalize the band's music and spirit, and it proved to be exactly what the Stones needed.
"'Beast of Burden' is a good example of the two of us twinkling felicitously together," said Richards. Wood's slide guitar and pedal steel work made a big impact when recording and also on stage, and the chemistry between Wood and Richards can be heard when listening to Rolling Stones songs such as "It's Only Rock and Roll," "Hey Negrita," "Miss You," "Far Away Eyes" and "Start Me Up."

After a decade of delivering their own riff-heavy brand of metallic rock harkening back to the punk, hardcore and post-hardcore sounds of their predecessors, Coliseum – vocalist and guitarist Ryan Patterson, bassist Kayhan Vaziri and drummer Carter Wilson – will perform live at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's Summer in the City concert on August 14, 2013.
The group recently released their fourth full-length, Sister Faith, a 13-track blast of galvanized melodies at the collision point between punk and noise-rock. "Though punk rock may have been the template (and paradigms do shift), songwriting and emotional content have become Coliseum's focus," noted John Baizley of metal contemporaries Baroness. "And to that end, they have gracefully transitioned from the unrelenting anger, rage and rawness of youth to a more thought-provoking, yet no-less-powerful or insightful sound that is entirely their own."
The Rock Hall caught up with Ryan Patterson of Coliseum to talk rock and roll – everyone from Tom Petty, Run DMC, Les Paul and Bad Brains to the Beatles, the Who, Sex Pistols and Public Enemy.

Founded in 1968 by Jon Anderson and Chris Squire, Grammy-award winning recording artists Yes have created some of the most important and influential music in rock history. Throughout their career, Yes has been known for their esoteric lyrics, elaborate album art, live stage sets and expansive songs, such as "Roundabout," "Close to the Edge," "I've Seen All Good People" and "Owner of a Lonely Heart" – to name a few. Having sold millions of records over a four-decade career, the band has overcome a generational shift in its audience, and the departure of its most visible members at key points in its history to reach the end of the century as the definitive progressive rock band. They are currently on a world tour, playing three albums of their classic albums The Yes Album, Close To The Edge and Going For The One in their entirety.
Recently, members of Yes – singer Jon Davison, bassist Chris Squire, guitarist Steve Howe, drummer Alan White and keyboardist Geoff Downes – were interviewed by education director Jason Hanley before a live audience at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum in Cleveland. Following the interview, the group surprised the crowd with a short set ...
Silversun Pickups – guitarist and vocalist Brian Aubert, bassist Nikki Monninger, drummer Christopher Guanlao and keyboardist Joe Lester – emerged on the LA music scene in the early 2000s alongside their 2005 debut, Pikul. The group's following grew dramatically in 2006 with the release of Carnavas, featuring the breakthrough single "Lazy Eye." That album and subsequent releases, including 2009's Swoon and 2012's Neck of the Woods, have showcased the band's gift for electrifying soundscapes, textured arrangements and male-female vocal harmonies.
The Grammy-nominated quartet visited the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum on August 8, 2013, touring the Museum before a gig at Cleveland's famous Agora Theater. Silversun Pickups singer/guitarist Brian Aubert sat down for an interview with the Rock Hall.
Rock Hall: What was the first record/CD you ever bought and do you still listen to it?
Brian Aubert: The first album I remember buying was Cyndi Lauper's She's So Unusual. I was really little, and I was on a family trip to Anchorage, Alaska. I found it in a mall and the purchase made me feel like an adult. Yes, I do listen to it here and there.
RH: What ...
Released in November 1995, The Ghost of Tom Joad by Bruce Springsteen was a far cry from the celebratory rock and roll marathons of Born in the USA, sharing more in common with the sheer production and pointed commentary of his masterpiece, Nebraska. A largely acoustic album of spectral songs about marginalized characters struggling to survive in an increasingly troubled America, The Ghost of Tom Joad – and its gripping title track – recently found a new rock and roll audience.
Nearly 17 years after its release, in September 2012, the Chicago punk quartet Rise Against breathed new life into the powerful narratives and blunt political commentary of Springsteen's "Joad" at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California. Joined on stage by Gaslight Anthem frontman Brian Fallon, the MC5's Wayne Kramer and Rage Against the Machine guitarist Tom Morello, the members of Rise Against delivered a bold recasting of "The Ghost of Tom Joad." The song will appear on the forthcoming Rise Against rarities compilation, Long Forgotten Songs: B-Sides & Covers 2000-2013 (scheduled release date is September 10, 2013).
"I remember watching the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 25th-anniversary special where Tom Morello played this song with Springsteen himself and ...

Founded in 2000, The Awesome Puppet Company reanimates the ancient world's myths, metaphors and imagery in a creative medium, unique to this company: puppets. But you won't just see puppets in a cut out box whacking each other with bats, this company think outside the box and creates masterpieces of all shapes and sizes with whatever materials they have.
We interviewed Daniel from The Awesome Puppet Company and got an exclusive preview into their work at the Leonardo this coming week. We have included that interview below:
1) What will you be doing during your time at the Leonardo? Why should people come see you?
"The Awesome Puppet Company will be running a series of workshops and drop-in activities that draw inspiration from the many examples of rock art around Utah. The plan is to design, make and present an array of paper puppets, masks and creatures that will explore, interpret and perform some of the secret stories suggested by these enigmatic and ancient diagrams. The interactive nature of the residency will provide an opportunity to engage with puppetry and puppet-craft on a variety of different levels and no previous puppet-craft or theatre experience is necessary. We'll also be enlisting the help of local actors Jay Perry and Nick O'Donnell, who've been seen in productions in Pioneer Theatre, Salt Lake Acting Company and Plan-B Theatre Company. Their extensive experience in theatre-craft, drama, use of voice, work with children and so forth will bring a dimension of engagement that will significantly enhance the experience for the participants."
2) What inspired you to use puppets as a means for sharing your values with the world?
"The extreme sense of freedom and playfulness that the medium allows is the key. Puppetry is an ancient and atavistic form of creative expression, yet it also embraces and reflects the modern and the contemporary. It has never relinquished its folk-art roots or its democratic and independent spirit and, for that reason, it is also an extremely powerful medium that can challenge assumptions and pre-conceptions. It can also be an extremely effective tool for affecting real change, for instance in education, communication, and therapeutic contexts. We draw a lot of our inspiration from the rituals, myths, and imagery of the ancient world... as well as those of the scientific and 'digital age'."
3) What do you believe are the most important values for people to share? How do you display that in what you do?
"The willingness to communicate, build bridges, and to have the courage of one's convictions grounded in compassion and respect for fellow human beings, other life forms and resources, as well as commitment to the positive, transformative quality of one's own creative imagination (a frequently neglected resource!). As artists we try to embody this critical reflexivity through creative expression, by embracing the positive, and by not baulking at the difficult, the awkward or the uncomfortable. Hopefully, some of this awareness is captured and transmitted through the 'edgy' aesthetic of the puppet creatures we make."
4) Out of everything that you've produced, what has been your best puppet/production? Why?
"The Awesome Project is a work in progress and thus an on-going form of exploration. Nevertheless, we've spent the last couple of years focusing on the therapeutic side of things and have been researching and evolving a form of 'personal narrative performance' as a way of addressing trauma issues. It is always an awe-inspiring and deeply moving experience to witness how someone else connects with and experiences some form of transformation when they engage with the medium, whether they be an audience, a one-off workshop participant, or a therapy group. If you can call that process a production, then that is our best work."
5) How can people find out more about you after your residency is complete?
"Our website: awesome-puppets.com and the 'contact' link."
"The Lab" is open from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday through Friday. The Leonardo is located at 209 E. 500 South in Salt Lake City.
Admission is $14 for adults, $12 for seniors, $10 for youth (6-17), and free for children five and under. Check their theleonardo.org for more info about artists and family discounts.

Commute Trip Reduction
In an effort to reduce congestion on highways and local streets, the state supports programs that lower the number of cars, particularly those with one occupant, on the roads during peak travel periods.
The City of Bellevue is required by the state to maintain a Commute Trip Reduction plan, which is focused on employers citywide with 100 or more full-time employees. By state and city law, (listed under the following Bellevue City Code: 14.40.080 Schedule and process for CTR program review, reports, and implementation) certain employers with 100 or more employees must provide Commute Trip Reduction programs. Choose Your Way Bellevue offers details to help employers draft CTR programs, and provides information about travel options in Bellevue.
As of May 2010, there were 57 Bellevue worksites with 33,000 workers affected by this program, approximately 24 percent of all workers in the city. From 1993 to 2010, CTR-affected employers in Bellevue have lowered their overall single-occupancy vehicle rate from 75 percent to 64 percent. CTR employers downtown reduced their drive-alone rate from 68 percent to 56 percent, and those elsewhere in the city reduced their rate from 79 percent to 68 percent.
The city's CTR Implementation Guidelines provide additional details for implementation of the law in Bellevue.

How can I determine if I am generating a unique and strong Initialization Vector? If my mode is generating Keystream? Is there any scientific explanation in generating a unique and strong Initialization Vector?

"Unique" is relatively straight forward. It's something you haven't used before. Unique usually only applies to the individual party, you only need to verify that the IV is unique for your usage with the current key.
"Strong" relates to the requirements that your mode of operation has for the IV. Different modes require different constraints on the IV. Which ties in with...
The "scientific explanation" for a good IV comes from a security proof reduction. Researchers design a scheme (like a mode of operation, such as CBC) that uses a cryptographic primitive (like a block cipher, such as AES) that requires an IV, then they prove (or at least argue) that the scheme using the IV is as secure as the underlying primitive given certain constraints on the IV. In other words, if the scheme can be broken it isn't due to the IV as the IV's requirements makes the scheme no weaker. This principle applies to every form of IV, be it for a stream cipher or block cipher. Those constraints on the IV are the strong IV values you should use.
For example, CBC mode for block ciphers requires that the IV be unpredictable. So commonly it is either a) random or b) a unique value encrypted by a key. (The two most common IV requirements are that it be random or unique.) CBC has a proof of security that says that if one of those criteria for the IV are met, then the resulting scheme is as strong as the underlying block cipher.
How do you verify the IV is good? You should put your analysis into the process that does generate the IV, then you can test the IV after it is generated. The main focus should go on how the IV is generated and verifying it conforms to the specification's requirements.
The summary is: Cryptography researchers say that certain schemes are secure given constraints on the IV. These constraints will be widely known and should be available for you to find.

Lift truck user survey: How customers acquire, maintain and replenish their fleets
April 01, 2012 - MMH Editorial
How does the economy impact fleet acquisition?
Time is money, and, especially since the recession, decisions based on future business conditions can be difficult. The survey results grant some insight into the impact of the economy on fleet acquisition, with more than half of respondents saying the economy influences their decisions either to some extent or to great extent.
"The economy is a barometer, and it's more about emotion," says McKean. Generally speaking, the lift truck market will grow or contract in direct proportion to the state of the economy. But for those customers who claim the economy has little or no impact on their fleet acquisition, one of two things might be happening. The customer might be on a fixed replacement cycle and is comfortable having idle trucks during slow times.
"No one ever complains when the lift truck is parked," says McKean. "They complain when it's not there."
Or perhaps the customer's acquisition habits are based on fleet management data, or considerations of the core fleet and seasonal fleet.
"Folks who fleet manage might not make wait-and-see decisions or might not consider the economy the direct driver of acquisitions," says McKean, who says good data can prompt seemingly counter-intuitive buying decisions in an economic downturn. "Say for instance the maintenance costs are up on a high-use lift truck when the economy suddenly slows. A wait-and-see customer might have a hard time justifying the cost to replace that vehicle, but a company with a well-managed fleet will be able to see the savings that purchase can produce."

Welcome to the Van Arsdale Center
SUNY Empire State College's Harry Van Arsdale Jr. Center for Labor Studies serves more than 1,000 trade unionists and other students annually and is home to more than 5,000 alumni. At the Van Arsdale Center, faculty, staff, students and institutional partners work together to develop and strengthen labor studies as a perspective on our world and as a means to ensure the best possible society for us all.
The best possible society, from the perspective of labor studies, is one in which everyone who wants to work can, and everyone who does work is paid enough to live a good life as a respected member of the community. Learning how to ensure these desires, which are well expressed by the traditional labor movement slogan, "a fair day's wages for a fair day's work," is the guiding purpose of a labor studies degree.
To provide appropriate paths to such a degree, Van Arsdale Center faculty and staff work with the center's institutional partners to develop courses of study that meet the needs of their members and the requirements of the program.
They also work with students wanting to pursue an individualized labor studies degree to develop a plan of study that best supports their needs and interests.
There are a variety of ways to earn a labor studies degree at the center and at the college.
- Construction trades apprentices with IBEW Local 3 and UA Local 1 compete associate degree requirements as part of their registered apprenticeship training, which is almost wholly supported by the joint training fund of their respective trades.
- Public school classroom paraprofessionals from the UFT pursue associate and bachelor's degrees in educational studies and related fields at both the center and at the UFT's five borough teacher centers.
- Labor movement officers and staff work with the center to receive recognition for their prior college-level learning in an executive bachelor's program in labor studies, which affords opportunities for them to engage with their peers on a range of vital issues and to complete research and writing projects related to their concerns as part of their program of study.
All of us at the Van Arsdale Center are looking forward to working with you to help you achieve your personal and professional goals.

Management Policies and Medium-term Management Goals
Basic Management Policies
As stated in our corporate commitment, "Clarion strives to improve society by seeking to develop the relationship between sound, information and human interaction, and by creating products to meet those needs" and carries out activities accordingly.
Clarion is dramatically shifting its business from an in-vehicle device manufacturer to an "In-Vehicle Information Solution Provider". Setting our eyes on the medium to long term, we are striving to lay a firm foundation for future growth by strengthening "business in growing segments", engaging in "global business management" and implementing "structural reform for growth in the medium term".
Targeted Management Indicators
The Clarion Group emphasizes consolidated operations in order to enhance corporate value, and accordingly, promotes greater consolidated earnings power and consolidated cash flow management targeting a consolidated operating profit margin in excess of 5%.
Issues to Be Addressed
The automobile industry has witnessed an accelerating transition in emphasis from hardware to software, including smartphone connectivity and full-fledged entry of participants from the IT industry. In addition, there has been a rapid expansion in needs in the field of safety and security aimed at automated driving and driving support. Amid this market environment, Clarion will not only strengthen its lineup of existing products but also more closely focus its attention on such growing segments of "safety and security" and products with "connectivity". In more strongly promoting its 3D Strategies (3Dimensions of products, regions and customers), Clarion intends to identify market trends and customer needs on a global scale and introduce appealing products and solutions ahead of its competitors.
It is expected that the car electronics industry will undergo a significant transition during the fiscal year ending March 31, 2016 accompanied by intensifying competition. In this business climate, Clarion aims to strengthen its business foundation that will support its future growth by augmenting its earnings management structure and implementing structural reforms in such areas as R&D processes.
Amid drastic changes in the surrounding business environment, we will fulfill our corporate social responsibilities as a member of the Hitachi Group and aim to achieve growth as a company that is truly needed by society.

Women's Squash Sweeps Cornell, Will Seek Upset At No. 2 Trinity Saturday

The fifth-ranked Princeton women's squash team defended its ranking Sunday in impressive fashion, sweeping the sixth-ranked Cornell Big Red 9-0 during an afternoon showdown. The Tigers also honored the Class of 2014, which played its final regular-season home matches during the matchup.
While this weekend was about defending a ranking, Princeton will try to create some havoc in the poll next weekend. The Tigers will head to No. 2 Trinity for their regular season finale; this match was postponed due to weather last season, but the Bantams upset Princeton in the Howe Cup semifinal.
Princeton will remain the fifth-ranked team in the poll following their 9-0 win over Cornell. Individual scores will be posted when available.

Teatro Vallarta Concludes Season Opera Screenings with Giulio Cesare
Published Apr 24, 2013, 2:12pm -
Teatro Vallarta wraps their season transmissions of The Met: Live in HD live screenings of the prestigious opera company's Saturday matinees from Lincoln Center in New York City with their production of George Frideric Handel's Giulio Cesare this coming Saturday, starting at 11 am. An introductory lecture will be offered by Vallarta Lifestyles' Managing Editor, Paco Ojeda, at 10 am.
After several years in the making, Teatro Vallarta responded favorably to community requests and brought The Met's live opera transmissions in high definition to Puerto Vallarta for the first time this season. The Met has already announced their upcoming 2013-2014 live transmission series, which includes repertoire favorites, such as Puccini's La Bohème and Tosca, along with other outstanding selections. However, given the lukewarm attendance numbers during this past season, Teatro Vallarta is not ready to confirm that they will continue with the program next season. "We anticipated getting larger audiences," commented Teatro Vallarta manager, Salvador Luna, in a telephone conversation. "Unfortunately, the Met opera broadcasts have failed to reach the critical mass we were anticipating.
Teatro Vallarta will be looking closely at attendance numbers this coming Saturday, and will make an announcement as to whether they will continue broadcasting the Met's Live in HD series later on this month. Locals interested in keeping the Met broadcasts in Puerto Vallarta are urged to attend and spread the word.
Tickets for Giulio Cesare are $250 pesos per person, general seating, with special pricing for teachers and students. The opera is 4 hours, fifteen minutes long. For more information and advanced ticket purchases, please visit Teatro Vallarta's web site: www.teatrovallarta.com.

Driving and Parking Tips/Advice:
Knowing that most of our students are car riders, please take a moment to read and follow these basic driving/parking/drop-off/pick-up directions:
Morning Drop-Off:
Main School Parking Lot:
Valet service for all students in grades K-6.Parents -- remain in your vehicle -- and keep moving forward as the cars ahead of you move up. The goal is always for the lead car to move all the way forward to the flag pole so that as many students as possible can exit their vehicles along the front curb.
Arriving at school, all students should report to the playground and sit down in their classroom line until the 8:15 bell rings.
After School Dismissal:
Kindergarten pick-up is done exclusively in the Bus Lane(older brothers and sisters should join their kindergarten sibling at the Bus Lane area for pick-up after school. Parents -- remain in your vehicle -- and keep moving forward as the cars ahead of you move up. The goal is always for the lead car to move all the way forward to the far end of the Bus Lane so that our valet service can load as many students as possible along the front curb in the Bus Lane.
Main School Parking Lot: Valet service for students in grades 1-6. Parents -- remain in your vehicle -- and keep moving forward as the cars ahead of you move up. The goal is always for the lead car to move all the way forward to the flag pole so that our valet service can load as many students as possible along the front curb.
Park in legal parking places only. If our school parking lot is full, there is plenty of parking right next to the school at the TeWinkle Sports Complex.
Plenty of legal parking places are available along the street behind our school -- Presidio Square.
There are several potential advantages to parking off-campus.Exercise for you walking back and forth to pick up your child. On the way back to your vehicle, it gives you time to walk and talk with your child. This is a great time to ask your child about their day at school. Rather than asking your child, "What did you do at school today?" and then getting the standard response, "Nothing," I would suggest asking the open-ended questions I ask my three children each day:
- "What was your favorite part about school today -- and recess, lunch, and going home -- don't count?"
- "Tell me about something funny that happened at school today."
- "Tell me something new that you learned today."
- "Your chance to stump your dad, ask me any kind of question related to what you you learned today. Kind of like Jeopardy."
We strongly suggest asking your child open-ended questions like these every single day. These lead to excellent conversations AND it builds your child's ability speak and listen, recall learning, and make real-world connections with their learning as you add your comments, perspectives, and life-experiences.

Rated 5 out of 5 by 2 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by MrKeVirgo A Childhood Classic Rediscovered For several years as a younger person, I woke up each Easter with eager anticipation of that little purple box that contained my absolute favorite treat: Lil' Scoops! What isn't appealing about a milk chocolate egg you have to bite the top off of to get to the smooth, pillowy cream center? Sadly, they stopped selling them after a few years in the typical stores. Leave it to World Market to reawaken my childhood excitement! Other candy eggs are often too sweet, with "cream" that is very granular. I can't wait to pick some up. Thank you, WM! March 15, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Puttersmom Wonderful Treat, smooth, fun, creamy Brought these and other Easter candy treats from World Market for family gathering in small town in Midwest. Initially, for five little kids. Family don't have access to a World Market, everyone went wild over treats especially this candy! Fun packaging, smooth chocolate, and 'snickers' like mouse filling. Only regret : Wish I had brought more!!!! The adults were pouting :) April 3, 2012

Throughout history ginseng has been used for its powerful abilities to revitalize and restore balance in the body. It is the master herb of Chinese medicine and Native Americans use ginseng for its curative and life-prolonging properties. Today, ginseng is commonly used to promote endurance, athletic performance and alleviate stress. White American Ginseng is recognized internationally as the ginseng of choice. Pure Planet Ginseng combines the superior benefits of carefully harvested American ginseng with the energy-enhancing and tissue building benefits of Organic Spirulina. Our Ginseng Plus contains at least 28 active ginsenosides, all pure, including calming and stimulating elements that promote energy without jitters. We proudly guarantee 12mg of ginsenosides per tablet. An adaptogenic herb, ginseng offers benefits for every body. When taken, the body knows where its healing properties are most needed to maximize its calming, energizing balance.
American Ginseng root contains at least 29 active ingredients, or ginsenosides. Of these, the Rb and Rg ginsenosides are perhaps the most significant. Rb-1 has a calming effect of the body (Yin qualities), helping it manage stress, while Rg-1 has a stimulating effect (Yang qualities), giving the body energy. Not surprisingly, the Chinese recognized these soothing yet revitalizing properties of American Ginseng, which parallel the integral balance in the Chinese philosophy of Yin and Yang.
Available in tablet and powder formulas.

Ultra Pro 3x4 Top Loader Trading Card Holders
|Ultra Pro Top Loaders
3x4 - Standard Card Size Holder
25 Pack SRP: $4.99
Note: Some boxes say 'Premium' while others do not. There is no difference between the two holders. These holders will not fit thick cards - especially ones with a jersey or patch.
These are by far some of the most popular holders known to man in the trading card industry. They have been around for years and Ultra Pro has been the premiere maker of the 3x4 Top Loader for ages. If you have any sort of card collection, chances are you have several cards in this exact card holder. Collectors like them because they are sturdy and rigid on the sides - making it almost impossible to ever fold your card in half somehow.
Using top loaders to store your more valuable trading cards is a much safer option as opposed to keeping them in a binder or just soft sleeves alone. Keeping cards in a binder can easily damage cards in many ways including nasty 'binder rings' that put a dent into cards. Binder pages can also become loose and if you ever tip your binder over, cards could spill out the top which would be a disaster. Binders are great for cards you do not care that much about or do not have much value to you. Any card of significant personal value should be put into it's own special card holder.
I highly suggest - at the very least - that you use both a soft sleeve and a top loader to protect your most precious cards. The added protection of a soft sleeve will help keep dust and other junk off your card for years to come.

Ever wonder what attracts a younger man to an older woman? I asked my cub that very question and here's what he said.
I recently got an email from an anonymous cougar who wonders why younger men like older women. She's had a relationship with a young man and described it as torture-- she was always worried he was comparing her to younger women.
Well, I've got news for you. He's already compared you with girls his age. They came up silly, slutty, and boring. You came up intriguing, sexy, and exciting. He went with you. I too have often wondered about this, so I investigated further, interviewing my cub, Michael. Here's how the conversation went:
Pamela: You're 28. Why are you attracted to older women?
Michael: Women in their twenties are a) quite boring, b) quite unintelligent, c) only wanting to settle down into some kind of marriage situation, and d) really not bringing much to the table.
Pamela [clearing her throat as she attempts to recover from his pointed analysis]: Top three things that appeal to you about older women?
Michael: Sexually, they know specifically what they want. That helps a younger cub who is not necessarily inexperienced but may lack direction and confidence in terms of how to please a woman. A younger woman in her twenties probably doesn't know herself or what she likes so wouldn't be able to communicate it.
Pamela: Why is this sexual confidence so much more attractive?
Michael: It makes for a better, more fulfilling sexual experience.
Pamela: Anything else you like about older women?
Michael: In theory, a cougar is more self-sufficient and they'll pay for things. A girl in her twenties probably is a student or in transition. It's not as much fun. You're limited to what you can do socially and travel-wise.
Third thing I'd say that is appealing about older women is that they're more sexual. They're willing to explore more and know what buttons to push to challenge the cub to a higher level of performance.
Pamela: I think you already mentioned sex. It's mostly about sex for you then?
Michael: It's not just sexual. The summation of the appeal of cougars is they know exactly what they want and they communicate that.
Pamela: Any downside?
Michael: Gray hair. Kidding. I would say social awkwardness and different interests and friends. That makes it more difficult to share things. A cougar's done a lot of things by her age. She has more specific wants and needs socially. You're not going to get her to just hang out say.
Another big negative is if they have kids. Also, there's a limited future in the sense that if you end up falling in love and there isn't clear communication about expectations, there could be problems. It's not the same outcome as it might be for an older man marrying a younger woman. It's less socially accepted for an older woman to be with a younger man so it requires more effort and understanding on both parts.
Lastly, she's probably out of touch with younger culture.
Pamela: Culture? [snickering] That's a big word to describe sitting around watching TV.
Michael: And they definitely stereotype.
Pamela: Out of the mouths of babes, is all I can say.

Davies, who had helped Europe to a victory in the 2004 Palmer Cup by winning three of a possible four points, provided only a half point to the European cause in 2005. On Thursday, Davies and Georgia State's Steve Tiley lost to Duke's Ryan Blaum and New Mexico's Spencer Levin 3-and-2 in the alternate shot format, and in the fourth and final round, Davies fell 3-and-2 once again to Blaum in the singles match.
Only a week removed from competing in his first NCAA Championship, Davies has been ranked in the Top 3 national throughout much of the collegiate season and has enjoyed arguably the most successful individual season in ETSU golf history. In 2004-05, Davies set Buccaneer records for individual championships (five), single-round score (63), and three-round score (199), while helping lead the Bucs to their 17th Southern Conference men's golf championship and finishing second on the individual leaderboard at the NCAA East Regional.

Here's what we wrote about Johanna's in our list of Utah's best diners:
They say it's all about the biscuits and gravy - known here as "wagon wheels and axle grease." Actually, they're tall, brown and soft with a bowl of pale gravy the consistency of half-jelled Jell-O. Apparently, big biscuit sales have allowed Johanna's to double its size, with an added-on bland dining room augmenting the original booth-n-counter layout. 9725 S. State St., Sandy, 801-566-1762

CLEVELAND (January 26, 2010) –The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum will extend its latest exhibit, From Asbury Park to the Promised Land: The Life and Music of Bruce Springsteen through December 31, 2010.
From Asbury Park to the Promised Land is a comprehensive look at Springsteen's music, from such early bands as Child, the Castiles and Steel Mill through his work with the E Street Band and as a solo artist. The exhibit includes several of Springsteen's guitars, including the Fender Esquire that is on the cover of Born to Run. It will also include the outfit he wore on the cover of Born in the U.S.A., as well as numerous handwritten lyric manuscripts, posters and handbills from all phases of his career, and various awards and honors. In addition, the exhibit includes Springsteen's 1960 Chevrolet Corvette, which he purchased after the success of Born to Run.
Several new artifacts have been added from Springsteen's first car to his 2009 Kennedy Center Honor:
Kennedy Center Honor, 2009
Bruce Springsteen was honored by the Kennedy Center in December 2009. The awards are presented annually to influential figures in entertainment and politics. At the ceremony, President Barack Obama said, "I'm the president, but he's the Boss."
Bruce Springsteen Jacket, 2009
Bruce Springsteen wore this jacket at We Are One: The Obama Inaugural Celebration. The event was held on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC. Springsteen performed "The Rising," playing acoustic guitar and backed by a full gospel choir.
Golden Globe Award, 2009
Bruce Springsteen's song "The Wrestler" won the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song – Motion Picture. Mickey Rourke, who starred in the movie, personally asked Springsteen to write the song. Some scenes were shot in Asbury Park, New Jersey.
Grammy Award, 2002
Bruce Springsteen won the Grammy Award for Best Rock Album for The Rising.
Grammy Award, 2007
Bruce Springsteen won the Grammy Award for Best Rock Song for "Radio Nowhere."
Linn Drum Machine, c. 1983
This drum machine was used to create hand-clapping sounds during the recording of Born in the U.S.A. Three years later, in 1986, Bruce Springsteen began working on demos for what would become Tunnel of Love. This drum machine was ultimately used for all of the drum parts on that album.
Kurzweil 250 Sample Keyboard, c. 1986
Bruce Springsteen first used this keyboard during the recording of Tunnel of Love. It was responsible for all of the sounds on that album other than the guitars, bass and drums. Springsteen continued to use this keyboard for strings, horns and other orchestral sounds and effects on his ensuing albums until he replaced it with the newer Kurzweil K2600.
Bruce Springsteen 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Convertible
Bruce Springsteen purchased this car in 1975 for $2000. It was the first car he ever owned. When Springsteen drove it, it had twin four-barrel carburetors and a Hurst shifter. Springsteen had the car painted yellow with hot-rod flames. This was the car that Springsteen owned while recording his 1975 landmark album, Born to Run.
Bruce Springsteen was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1999.

For all the local Surrey writers....you will remember Ed is the founder of the Surrey International Writers' Conference. Here is his new endeavour!
You've probably heard that Surrey Schools has cancelled all continuing education course for adults. No more guitar classes, Spanish conversation, Punjabi cooking and Creative Writing.
Our creative writing program was the best in the lower mainland. People came from Burnaby, Vancouver, Abbotsford, Port Coquitlam and other communities to take our courses. We are not going to let it die. We have started our own non-profit writers' school, called Surrey Writers' School. Instead of going to your local school, in many cases you will find our courses at your local library.
It's essential that we succeed and that we succeed this fall. Even if you've taken all the courses you want, please, please mention our courses to your neighbors, friends and co-workers.
Here's the Fall line-up:
Course: Introduction to Creative Writing
Whalley Library
Wednesdays Sept. 23 – Nov 24, 7 – 9 p.m.
Ed Griffin, Instructor
Workshop: Writing From Life
White Rock Library
Saturday, Oct. 10, 10 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.
Lois Peterson, Instructor
Course: Shaping better poems -
working with a group
Fall 2009. Details to follow
Heidi Greco, Instructor
Writers' Express
Saturday, November 14, Newton Library
10 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.
Many Instructors

Go, Ed. Go!
When Ed speaks, writers listen! Sign up for a fall course or workshop with Surrey Writers' School (SWS) and help make successes of us all - however we define it. (Info. about the winter session will be available at the SWS table at the conference.) Thanks. LP

I was a student at Ed
I was a student at Ed Griffin's first writers' class held at Semiahmoo Secondary School. Under Ed's watchful eye we received a solid training in all aspects of writing. In following years, the course offered by Ed was supplemented by other courses that finally led to the granting of a writing diploma. Four seniors, including me, were the first recipients of this diploma. Since then I have never stopped writing and have published five books and one article in the Beaver magazine, one of Canada's most reputable publications. I am working on my sixth book. I will be eternally grateful for Ed's initial teachings and can recommend to anyone who wants to write, whether it be for pleasure or profit (??), put yourself in Ed's hands. You will never regret it. Les Hempsall

Ed taught me how to start writing creatively
Ed is a wonderful teacher. He encouraged me and the entire class to express ourselves in a supportive environment. I would heartily recommend him as a teacher.
If you need to know where and how to begin, Ed is your man.


text: Some say it is a good idea to have some sort of precious metal for preparedness/economic reasons. Gold is nice - but costly. Silver seems to be doing better than it was last year, and I have read where the price of silver will keep going up. Do you all feel it will go up or stay around where it is at? If you feel it will go up, how high do you think it will go? $20/oz., $40/oz, or more? Just curious what everyone thinks.
