"The Saudi Arabian athlete will take part in judo and she will fight according to the principle and spirit of judo, so without a hijab," said IJF president Marius Vizer following Thursday's draw.
Any head covering in judo is considered a safety risk. Judo players, or judokas, toss their opponents. Quite often the gi, the judo uniform that is used for other martial arts, is used to grab opponents. The gi is made of a heavy weave cotton, and it is easier to hold on to than the light, slippery fabrics normally used to make hijabs.

It's not much of a leap to think Shaherkani could be injured if an opponent grabbed her hijab instead of her gi. Even in a different fabric, it could cause injuries as her head and neck would be vulnerable to a throw, instead of just her body.
Saudi Arabia made news this summer by allowing women to participate in the Olympics for the first time. It made this decision contingent on if the women wore the head covering, could be chaperoned by a guardian and didn't mix with men.
Though they don't compete against each other, judokas don't separate by gender for competition. Shaherkani will be competing and preparing near men on Aug. 1.

The April 13 episode of ABC's "Revenge" saw new alliances formed, a death, a break up and a shocking discovery unfold. Much of it centered around Pascal as his involvement in the David Clarke affair was revealed. Buckle your seatbelts – we've got a lot of ground to cover.
Knowing Pascal is in Victoria's pocket, Emily was not surprised when he tried to bait her with an invitation to a day at the races. He tried to get her to divulge what she knows about the Graysons for cash. Emily was too smart for him and called his bluff. She filled Aiden in on this development as she used her computer to try to figure out who Oscar Chapman is.
Nolan, disappointed about how his partnership with Javier imploded, tried again. He unknowingly interrupted a romp between Javier and Charlotte. Charlotte was pressuring Javier to meet with Daniel and he fell for it. During the meeting, Daniel and Margaux expressed great interest in Javier's software. Promising him the cover of Voulez, they won him over. The Nolan-Javier allegiance is the first to fall.
Emily and Victoria ran into one another at the races and exchanged only a few terse words before Victoria moved on. She had spotted a familiar face from the past, Luke Gilliam. A former co-worker of Conrad's, Luke had been the intended patsy they were going to frame for the bombing of flight 197. Luke ducked out before he could be set up and David Clarke went down in his place. Victoria was angry to see him and blamed him for what happened to David. Emily, hidden nearby, heard their conversation. When Victoria later confronted Conrad about Luke, he advised her to find out what Pascal's part in taking David Clarke down had been.
According to Hollywood Life's recap, Jack and Margaux's relationship has been teetering for a while thanks to Daniel's machinations. She's been concerned with her magazine and taking over her father's media empire while Jack was concerned with His mom's drinking relapse. After being gone for a week, he wanted to spend time with Margaux but she brushed him off.
When Jack learned how Daniel an Margaux had stolen Javier away from Nolan, he was furious. He confronted Margaux and warned that Daniel wasn't her friend. She refused to listen. Finally Jack had enough. "I love you Margaux, but I can't be around you right now," Jack said. Allegiance #2 down. Nolan isn't out of the fight either. He warned Charlotte and Daniel that they had started a war with him.
In the hunt for Oscar Chapman, Nolan and Aiden worked together. It was Nolan who discovered that one Brenda Evans was a person of interest in Chapman's life. The 2 men set up a stake out in front of Evans' home. While they waited, Aiden confided that he was upset about his father's part in the bombing. Nolan reminded him that he still didn't have all the facts.
Evans turned up and they cornered her. It turns out Evans was really Chapman in disguise. Nolan convinced him to come out of hiding and talk to them. Chapman knew Aiden was Trevor's son and told Aiden that Trevor had no idea what he'd been tasked to do. He had been doing what he needed to in order to save his daughter and afterward was devastated. He had been prepared to pay for his crime when he died. Trevor told Oscar his story and Oscar took it to Pascal. Trevor's death had not been a suicide. He'd been murdered by Pascal.
When Victoria pressured Pascal about his involvement in David's death, he was reluctant to talk. It took her starting to hit him to cause a change of heart. He conceded that he became involved to protect her. He has loved her all along and knew that if Conrad went down, he would take Victoria with him.
Pascal then went to see Conrad and played proof of Conrad's involvement in the bombing. Pascal had recorded their 1993 conversation and he now owns Conrad. A new allegiance was formed.
Fuming over Margaux's behavior, Jack went to visit pal Emily. He couldn't understand how it was possible that Margaux couldn't see what the Graysons were up to. Emily listened and tried to figure out how to take Luke down. He is the owner of an organization that promotes clean water but she had learned that the chemicals he used were toxic. Jack volunteered to help and Jack and Emily formed another allegiance.
Emily set Luke up, with Jack's help and Luke invited Emily to his awards ceremony. Emily managed to pilfer a sample of his chemicals. She later learned it contained only gelatin and saline, a fraudulent sample. She passed a memory stick to Jack that would be Luke's undoing. At the ceremony, Luke drank a sample and was poisoned by the chemicals he purported to be safe. Victoria was keeping a close eye on Emily, though.
Pascal, realizing that Oscar was a threat, headed over to the man's apartment where he killed him. Conrad found Aiden at a bar and informed him that Oscar had been murdered. He warned Aiden that he would be next if he and his sidekick didn't stop digging.
Luke didn't die from the poisoning because Emily still had use for him. She ordered him to help her take down Conrad. He agreed, so long as she left him alone. Another new allegiance is formed.
At the end of the day, Emily has moved closer to her goal. She congratulates Jack on moving in with Margaux. He lets her know that his relationship with Margaux is on the skids. Emily asks if he's okay with that and he says yes. Using her favorite red Sharpie, Emily crosses Luke's name off her list.
As it turns out, Victoria had started making a list of her own. She started tracking the victims of Emily's revenge hit parade with a black Sharpie. It took only a moment for Victoria to realize that Emily wasn't just targeting the Graysons but anyone involved with David Clarke's framing.
Has Victoria figured out that Emily is really Amanda Clarke, David's daughter? ABC's "Revenge" airs on Sundays at 9 p.m. ET.

"The world has changed, and not for the better."–Tom Brokaw, Oct. 7, 2008
The drycleaning industry has seen tough times lately. We have seen increasing supply and energy costs, we can't seem to lower our labor costs, and there are still too many plants. Now that we are officially in a recession or Depression, what can we expect?
The current economic crisis was caused largely by mortgage failures, sinking home values and securities founded on housing debt. Years ago, either through a sense of social justice or a genuine belief that making more people homeowners would improve the economy, the government began to encourage lending to new groups of people who were previously unable to own homes.
Rational businessmen filled this market niche and began selling what would become known as subprime mortgages. Rational consumers took advantage of this new opportunity to live part of the American dream. Home developers responded by building more homes, and new communities sprang up all over America.
Perhaps you live in one of these communities. Perhaps you hold a subprime loan. Some of these loans include a feature where the loan payment increases over time; sometimes, the increase is sudden, and sometimes, it's more gradual. This, too, seemed manageable at the time the loan was issued.
Back then, most consumers could look forward to getting wage increases over time, or could refinance with a new loan — especially if the home had appreciated in value, which was a reasonable expectation. Now we know that this was a big gamble — most people never saw their real wages rise enough, and as mortgages defaulted, homes for sale flooded the market.
Supply now outstrips demand in the housing market. As the value of the average home drops and the banks tighten restrictions on lending, even more families are unable to refinance due to their homes' loss of equity. This market failure continues to worsen, and my best information indicates that it will continue through 2009.
The good news? The Federal Reserve Bank and Treasury Department are working to minimize the damage that the market failure is bringing. We've heard talk of the possibility of a second Great Depression, but the differences between the first and today's circumstances are worth noting.
After the stock-market crash of 1929, government officials made errors in setting policy in response to the crisis. They raised taxes and tariffs, the latter to protect domestic producers from foreign competition. Presidents Hoover and Roosevelt alike promoted industry/labor cartels that stifled competition.
None of these mistakes will be repeated today. The body of knowledge in macroeconomics has increased exponentially since 1929, and I can say with confidence that the world economy today will face only new and perhaps unfamiliar problems.
The huge losses the stock market is experiencing as I write this probably won't last long. However, market losses will remain significant for some time. These losses represent a loss of market capitalization — or, for our purposes, a loss of owner equity. And this loss of equity represents a corresponding loss of production capacity and therefore, employment.
Macroeconomics says that if we don't act in our own self-interest (remember Adam Smith's "Invisible Hand?"), the economy will fail anyway. So how will we, as drycleaning businesses, be affected?
First, our customers are going to experience bad times. Many will find themselves unemployed or underemployed. Banks will be hard-pressed to lend money (especially to marginal applicants), so there will be less capital for acquisitions and startups.
Landlords will find that business failures provide them with surplus property to rent. Watch for opportunities to open dry stores cheaply. Employees will suffer alongside our businesses, though inflation in household costs will probably not be a big problem. Family members may be out of work, though, decreasing household incomes. But wages probably will not drop, even though there may be an army of unemployed.
Equipment sales will suffer somewhat from the lower number of startups, and leases will be a popular financing option. Suppliers will still sell supplies, but likely fewer, corresponding with lower consumer demand. Collecting on those supply sales will become more challenging.
The bottom line? There will be fewer drycleaners at the end of 2009 due to failures and bankruptcies. Many operators will not be able to sell their businesses. Like in the housing market, there will be more operators who want to sell than banks wishing to lend; selling prices may drop to the level at which most owners won't sell.
Under the circumstances, I would expect owner-financed and store-leasing arrangements to become popular options for the transfer of ownership. Numbers of dry stores may rise because of an increase in available space due to other businesses failing, and many drycleaners will still be able to still finance the investment themselves.
In short, 2009 is going to be a year of mixed opportunities, marked by a long-overdue market correction. The long year ahead will be a good time to get back to the basics of good customer service and quality. Take care of your business, and your business will take care of you.

Patricia Urquiola Klara Armchairfor MorosoKlara is a wooden armchair designed by Patricia Urquiola for Moroso. The design works on a simple, linear aesthetic that is harmonious in its curved yet essential shape.
The use of wood emphasizes its lightness and elegance.The structure is both functional and decorative, and calls to mind the first serial productions of the early 20th century (not least) due to the use of woven cane, a hand-crafted technique in practice in Friuli a century ago.
For its production, Moroso decided to work with the Manzano chair-manufacturing district, both in recognition of a production area that has represented Italian excellence in the production and industrial processing of wooden chairs for over a century, and because Moroso has always considered fine Italian, and in this case local craft skills to be of great value.
The name Klara evokes a sense of tranquility (Klare in German means clear, limpid, whilst the Spanish equivalent Clara communicates serenity). Thus this project also emphasizes the importance of blending decorative art, craftsmanship and industrial design.

Myanmars Young Women Take to Prostitution as Economy Collapses
Lifestyle News - G J E 4
Cherry and Kay Kay walk into room Number Two of a Yangon karaoke bar, where a man waits alone for them on a brown leather sofa.
"Come on, girls. Sing, please," he says, as they flick the karaoke machine to a Myanmar folk song they hope he likes.
"Come on, girls. Sing, please," he says, as they flick the karaoke machine to a Myanmar folk song they hope he likes.
The scene may not be uncommon in many parts of Asia, but was until recently rare here in isolated Myanmar, where economic desperation is increasingly pushing young women into a sex trade that hides behind the facade of karaoke bars and massage parlours.
AdvertisementAt the bars, known locally as KTVs for "karaoke television," young women in their late teens and early 20s entertain clients in private air-conditioned rooms furnished with sofas and karaoke equipment.
Waiters enter only when customers order food and drinks, or if the women ring a bell to alert the management that a client is getting out of hand.
Workers at KTVs say sex is not necessarily on offer, but they add that in the private rooms boundaries can be vague.
"It's hard to control men in this kind of room," 22-year-old Kay Kay says.
"They are so wild when they get drunk. I need to hold both his hands to protect myself. Sometimes I need to ring the bell to call for help from the waiters," she says.
Customers vary from teenagers to adults. Sometimes they come with friends, occasionally even with family, to venues that blur the line between casual entertainment and brothels.
Cherry and Kay Kay are among 20 girls working in their KTV bar, located near Yangon's landmark Shwedagon Pagoda, one of the Buddhist country's holiest shrines. Ostensibly they are hostesses, paid to keep customers company, encourage them to buy drinks, and to sing for them.
Prostitution is illegal in Myanmar, but it began to take root underground after the ruling junta abandoned socialism for a market economy in 1996.
Myanmar is one of the world's poorest countries, where even urban professionals scrape out a living on less than a dollar a day. Salaries for civil servants, for example, start at about 20,000 kyats (16 dollars).
Many industries have been decimated by decades of economic mismanagement by the military, coupled with the effects of Western sanctions imposed over the regime's failure to make good on promises of democratic reforms.
Cherry says she decided to work in the karaoke bar after quitting her low-wage job at a garment factory.
The eldest daughter in her family, Cherry was taken out of school before she reached her teens so her family could afford to send her brothers to school.
She then started working in the factory, but quit after discovering that she could earn more in tips in one night at the karaoke bar than she earned in a month at her old job.
Cherry and Kay Kay say they both grew up in broken families, and have not told any of their relatives about their new jobs.
"I didn't tell my mum that I'm working at KTV. She thinks that I'm working as a sales girl in a supermarket," Cherry says.
-- 'Our girls even include university graduates' --
Many of the girls working in Yangon's KTV bars have come from Myanmar's impoverished countryside in search of better opportunities in the city.
The bar that employs Cherry and Kay Kay provides them with free room and board, and a base salary of 20,000 kyats, or about 18 dollars.
"The basic salary is similar to what I earned at the factory, but here we get tips from customers," Cherry says. "Sometimes we earn 30,000 kyats (25 dollars) in one night just from the tips."
The women are not allowed to leave the bar before its 2:00 am closing time, and then they are driven back to the hostel.
In a nation that prides itself on the glories of its past and its literary culture, the growth of the entertainment industry has caused some public soul-searching.
One poet, who wrote about the trend in a poem called "Yangon Nights," said poverty was not the only culprit driving young women to their after-hours jobs.
"As many of them are uneducated and don't value their life, so they eventually end up in this community," he told AFP, speaking on condition of anonymity.
But Wine, who worked as a cashier in a music restaurant, said that even some professional women are turning to the nightlife for second jobs to help make ends meet.
"The girls working in our shop include schoolgirls, nurses who are available to work at night and university graduates," Wine said, adding that she started working at the restaurant after twice failing her high school graduation exam and being unable to find any other job.
"Many friends of mine work in KTVs or music pubs while also taking university correspondence courses," she said.
The stigma attached to the bar girls remains strong, and many parents would rather see their children join the millions of Myanmar migrants heading overseas to search for work.
"My youngest daughter wanted to work in a KTV bar. I did not allow her, because once she takes the step of working there, it becomes very easy for her to become a commercial sex worker. It's very hard to control," said Ei, a 59-year-old mother of two daughters.
Ei says that like many families here, hers is struggling to survive. But she would rather see her daughters try to find work overseas than let them work in a karaoke bar.
Cherry and Kay Kay say they are happy they make enough money to support their families without having to leave the country.
"I can support my family well. One of my brothers will graduate from university very soon," says Cherry.
"I don't need to work very hard like I did in the factory but you know customers treat us just as bar girls, they look down on us. The reputation of a bar girl is not so good in this community."

College Hockey:Duggan Winner Propels Canisius Past AIC
Griffs Overcome 53-Save Night By Yellow Jackets' Novello
SPRINGFIELD, Mass. — Sophomore Rob Martin found a wide-open Chris Duggan for a one-timer that became that game-winner at 14:39 of the third period, leading visiting Canisius to a 5-3 win over American International Friday evening.
The Griffins opened the scoring 15:58 in the first period as Marc Bouffard put home a Corey Lucas rebound. Trent Ulmer lit the lamp just two minutes into the second period to tie the contest. Three minutes later Martin scored his first goal of the night beating AIC goaltender Frank Novello.
AIC would not be denied, using the rebound method as Alex Walsh netted his first of the season when Bryan Worosz could not corral Ulmer's initial shot on goal. Ulmer netted his second of the game after AIC was trailing 3-2 at 8:06 of the third period.
Canisius added an empty-net goal by Todd Houston to round out the scoring.
Worosz picked up the win stopping, 23 shots as the Griffins improve to 11-6-2 in the league and 12-13-2 overall. Novello finished with 53 saves as AIC dropped to 6-15-0 overall and 5-14-0 and in the MAAC.

WESTFIELD TWP. — Members of the township's zoning commission aren't voting yet on whether to approve a zoning change that could allow for a multimillion-dollar development near the Interstate 71 and U.S. Route 224 interchange. First, they're making sure they have the information required to make the decision.
The zoning commission heard from speakers Tuesday night on what impact a development could have on the area.
The commission is scheduled to hear from several more speakers at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 26 at the Westfield municipal complex, 6699 Buffham Road. It also will hold a public hearing there at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 18 to hear more resident input.
"We're just trying to do our research, get as much information as we can," commission member Jill Kemp said Wednesday.
The project
Earlier this year, 23 township residents filed requests to amend both the township zoning text and map. The text amendment would create a new commercial and residential zoning type called General Business District, which would allow for buildings much larger than the township's current zoning code permits.
The map amendment would rezone 407 acres owned by the 23 applicants along Greenwich Road to the proposed General Business District.
"This is a rural community, and this project could potentially change the entire face of our community," Heather Sturdevant, chairwoman of the zoning board, said last month.
Proponents of the zoning changes have said it will bring commercial development to an area that hasn't seen much of it.
"The primary benefit of it is the convenience of the shopping, (and) creating jobs and offices (and) places for people to work close to home," said attorney Stan Scheetz, who represents all the applicants.
The amendments could allow for homes, banks, movie theaters, hospitals, offices, hotels and car dealerships. Scheetz said 20 percent to 30 percent of the land would be retail development, up to half would be open space, much of it would be office space and another significant proportion would be "nontraditional housing" like cluster homes or condominiums.
Opponents have feared the development could bring "big box" stores and other large retailers that the area may not have the population to support. Residents presented a petition with 127 signatures at a zoning commission meeting last month that asked the board to vote down the application.
At Tuesday's meeting, the zoning commission heard input from three experts.
Andy Vidra of the Northeast Ohio Areawide Coordinating Agency spoke of the possibility of bringing sewers to the area. He said Wednesday that his agency sometimes acts as a moderator for sewer issues in Northeast Ohio.
He said Westfield Village's or Seville's waste-water treatment plant may be able to reach the area with sewer lines. However, he said it could be a stretch.
"It is possible, if all the cards fall right, that sewers could be extended to this area and that would be required for the kind of zoning that's been proposed," Vidra said. He said if that's possible, it would be up to township and county officials to approve sewers to the area.
Jeff VanLoon of the Medina County Soil and Water Conservation District told the zoning commission Tuesday night of a recent land-use study for the area. He said that the Upper Chippewa Creek Balanced Growth Project found that the area could be used for both development and conservation.
VanLoon noted that the area's proximity to interstates 71 and 76 and U.S. Route 224 could be a major draw.
"It seems to me it would be an attraction to certain businesses," he said. However, he cautioned that there are several other factors that would have developers taking caution. For example, he said about 95 acres lie on a flood plain, which means there are several rules developers would have to follow.
"That's certainly an area that if you were to go in there and build something, there are additional costs," he said.
Medina County Highway Engineer Mike Salay spoke to the zoning commission Tuesday about traffic in the area. He said the nearby intersection of Lake Road and Route 224 already has been expanded as far as it can.
"It works pretty good now and there's additional capacity" for traffic, he said.
However, he said that depending on what kind of development occurs in the area, it's not guaranteed the intersection will be able to support a lot of new traffic.
Zoning Commission member Kemp said representatives from the Muskingum Watershed Conservation District and the county's economic development, sanitary engineer's and sheriff's offices are set to speak at the Oct. 26 meeting.

Tomorrow is National Pancake Day 2014. If you are a lover of pancakes then tomorrow you need to make extra time to head to your local IHOP restaurant and get your fill of free pancakes, yes - free pancakes!
According to an IBTimes report on March 3, customers who visit any participating IHOP locations nationwide on March 4 will be given a free stack of buttermilk pancakes. Yes, it is that simple. No strings attached, just free pancakes to everyone who shows up between 7 a.m. to 10 p.m.
The best part about you showing up to eat free hotcakes is that it helps raise money for charity.
While all customers are guaranteed a free stack of buttermilk hotcakes just for entering the door, IHOP will be accepting voluntary donations for the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals, among other local charities. IHOP has been holding this event since 2006 and so far it has been a success.
"Since beginning its National Pancake Day celebration in 2006, IHOP restaurants have raised $13 million to support charities in the communities in which they operate. On March 4, 2014, guests from around the country will once again celebrate National Pancake Day at IHOP restaurants and enjoy a free short stack of Buttermilk pancakes. In return for the free pancakes, guests will be asked to consider leaving a donation for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals."
Now before you think "how are the pancakes free if IHOP is asking for a donation?"
First off donating a few dollars for a stack of hotcakes is well worth it, plus you will be helping out the Children's Miracle Network. However the best part is IHOP will give all guests who make a donation a $5 off coupon good for their next visit.
So it really is a "win, win" situation.

In last week's blog I tempted fate by referring to the likelihood of needing to regenerate the "Mud Army" from the 2011 floods in Brisbane. Unfortunately that turned out to be a prophecy and indeed this year's disruption to businesses and residential properties was in some places as bad as or even greater than the 2011 benchmark.
Thankfully not suffering the terrible loss witnessed in other places, in my own area we were surrounded by floodwaters and without electricity for some 50 hours. This resulted for many in the loss of large quantities of food supplies, which they had stockpiled in anticipation of being cut off by the floods, only to find no power supply for refrigeration and the food quickly spoiling. Here is an example of one part of the emergency plan working well, only to be confounded by other unforeseen events.
At the end of my previous blog I suggested it was time to turn our thoughts to business continuity planning. This still seems a good idea but I may confine this discussion to some of my observations during this past week where, notwithstanding having compiled a sophisticated emergency response plan, some businesses were still confounded by the smallest of oversights or contingencies they never thought would happen.
Any plan is better than no plan at all, so the first rule is to at least start thinking and planning for the worst. The Queensland Government, through its Business Queensland website, offers good suggestions and even a template for small businesses to prepare their own business continuity plan. The template allows businesses to conduct their own risk assessment and establish a planning framework for dealing with major disruptions of an unforeseen nature. Business Continuity Plan template.
Even this template however relies on the business owner being astute enough to identify or predict events and circumstances of all kinds and of all magnitudes. The following discussion comprises a number of situations I observed which might test even the most robust business continuity plan.
I happened to be in Rockhampton last week at the height of the stormy weather, when the entire Telstra telephony network was disabled without warning. In such circumstances it matters not if your business has standby generator power or wireless or cable broadband connection, because the fundamental distribution vehicle is not available. Fortunately, I was carrying both a Telstra and an Optus wireless device and was able to operate on the alternative network. The Telstra outage lasted a couple of days and businesses without an alternative had to run blind or close up.
Equally for retail businesses, when the telecommunications network is down even though the shop or office might be open for business, the lack of EFTPOS or electronic credit card facilities can bring the business to a halt. At the same time EFTPOS and credit card facilities are down, it is likely that the Banks' autotellers are also out of service, as happened in Rockhampton. Consequentially cash does not become an option and the whole commercial cycle slows down considerably.
I saw one enterprising proprietor not giving up so easily as he reverted to old technology of a manual credit card imprinting machine which had lain dormant under his counter for years. He remarked, "I knew if I kept it long enough it would come in handy."
Even if the business can open and has power supply, if the creeks are up and the roads are cut customers cannot get to the business. Certainly the issue of the business's own employees being able to either access the place of business or being able to work remotely should be part of the emergency planning. I know of one business that has just such a plan which was born out of a fear some years ago of a global pandemic which would have forced a strategy of confining people to their homes.
Even if the customers can get to the business, if it is cut off from its suppliers of inventory the business's capacity to service its customers quickly dissipates. I witnessed a very frustrated Hardware Shop Manager asking a long line of customers wanting batteries to please be patient as the delivery truck was delayed by the local flooding.The likely impact of extreme events on supply chain reliability should be a very important part of the business's planning.
Assuming that the other businesses upon which you depend are also operating may be a risk in itself, or assuming you will still be able to access services upon which you depend in times of emergency might also be problematic if they too become inoperable . Always factor in to your plans that those alternative sources you identify made themselves become unviable.
For those of us whose business depends on travel the sudden closure of an airport and disruption to all other sources of transport (road and rail) at the same time can really test our BCP, as I found last week.
(Rockhampton Airport closed by floodwaters. When intermittent flights resumed pilots had the tricky job of getting off the ground with the runway length reduced by more than a third. Image by Sheryn O'Neill, The Morning Bulletin, Rockhampton)
Once the electrical power is severed, some businesses can often still operate at least for some time using battery powered equipment such as portable lanterns, laptop computers and smart phones. However if they were not disciplined enough to ensure that those devices were recharged regularly before the power is severed or do not have some alternative means of recharging them, that option also quickly fades. I was lucky enough to have family in other parts of the city who still had power and I was able to visit and recharge my devices from time to time. I also noticed unusually heavy trade in some Coffee Shops still operating where patrons with their mobile phones and laptops crowded around highly sought after tables near the shop's powerpoints.
Businesses should also take notice of those important "be prepared" messages that are directed towards individuals and families, such as having a battery-operated radio available to keep up with announcements and emergency notices. Of course, again this will fail unless there is a supply of well charge batteries on hand. It is often the case that once the emergency is to hand, usually convenient stocks of such items are quickly picked over - as I observed from yawning shelves in supermarkets, service stations, and convenience stores in my area. Have you noticed how scarce "D" Size Batteries have become these days?
So when we explore those "what if" scenarios that are part of the compilation of our Business Continuity Plan we should make sure to include a whole range of very simple but critical risks in order that we may decide whether there are viable alternatives, preventions or workarounds. Alternatively, part of the Business Continuity Plan may be too identify a period of time during which circumstances are so extreme that is just better to close down, secure the business premises and be prepared to reactivate as quickly as possible once the emergency has passed.
Above all, the prime consideration should be for the safety of employees and customers; followed by the security of the core assets of the business; followed by the reputation of the business as a good corporate citizen. Closing the doors and turning out with the "Mud Army" might be the best business move one can make in such times.blog comments powered by Disqus

Shortly after June 1992 Rio Earth Summit, the North American timber industry created a greenwashing forest certification: the Sustainable Forestry Initiative, or SFI.
Twenty years later, the SFI eco-label is everywhere. Companies of all shapes and sizes now use the SFI scam to promote their brands and their products as "green."
IMO, greenwashing by the timber industry and many other industries proliferates the market, and threatens our forests, our climate, our water and air, and ultimately, our future.
Consumers should pressure companies to distance themselves from greenwashing controversies like the Sustainable Forestry Initiative by committing not to promote this greenwashing eco-label scam.

College Hockey:Vermont Pounds Holy Cross, 10-2
Cats Score Eight Unanswered Goals
BURLINGTON, Ver. — Vermont exploded for eight unanswered goals, including five in a five-minute span in the third period, en route to a 10-2 victory over Holy Cross before a crowd of 3,603 at Gutterson Fieldhouse.
Vermont outshot Holy Cross, 50-14, to improve to 6-4-0 overall, while the Crusaders fell to 2-9-1 with the loss. The victory marked the first time since 1994 that the Catamount hockey team has scored in double digits.
Vermont was paced by its first line combination of center Ryan Cox, left wing J.F. Caudron and right wing Graham Mink, which accounted for five goals and five assists. Cox led the way with four points, including a pair of shorthanded goals scored within a 25-second span at :56 and 1:21 in the third period. Caudron added a goal and two assists, while Mink scored twice and added one helper.
Vermont also got goals from Ryan Miller, Bryson Busniuk, Jerry Gernander, Jeff Miles and J.F. Gamelin.
The game was tied 1-1 at the end of the end of the first, and 2-2 seven minutes into the second stanza, before Vermont went on a scoring tear, building a 4-2 lead at the end of two periods.
Catamount goaltender Shawn Conschafter made 12 saves to register his first win of the season. Derek Cunha played the first 42:35 for Holy Cross, making 33 saves and allowing seven goals, before being relieved by Rick Massey who turned back seven shots and surrendered three goals.

Beth in a news statement further explains that "CMT gives Dog a chance to do what he loves best — catching fugitives and changing lives while showing America that bail agents are needed much more than they realize."
Much like the original series, the new show purportedly with have one episode arches. The show will purportedly feature a different hunt or hunts unveiled at the beginning of episode and resolved by the end of the telecast. But do any of the criminals ever get anyway? For now that remains to be seen. But the show will feature a new facet. CMT tells news that the show will feature "tactical tracking and high-tech device training" during each episode.

That's because the Bowling Green International Festival filled the park with music, food, and fun all day. Despite all the attractions, many were there just to show their individual heritage and culture.
"I think it's important to have that knowledge of where you came from, no matter what that is." commented Toni Thorp, who is an Austrian Descendant.
Countries such as Burma, Greece, and Ireland among others displayed traditional dances and music on-stage. The celebration also featured pottery, clothing, jewelry and art for sale from all over the world.

While much of the country gets to enjoy a bit of spring, the weather in Miami has jumped straight into summer. Fiinding the shorts, tanks and sandals isn't hard to do, updating the beauty products is a little more challenging. Warmer weather means lighter makeup, fun summer colors and lots of sunscreen.
As make-up counters everywhere swap out their beauty lines, here are a few products to try now.
Summer is the time to get back to basics with the makeup. Heavy foundations, lipsticks and powders will cause problems in the intense heat. Instead, opt for a more natural beauty routine but don't forget the mascara. L'Oreal's Voluminous Butterfly Mascara uses an asymmetrical brush that runs along the lash line to create a fuller effect in just one use.
Sunscreen is a must throughout the year but even more important during the summer months when spending time outdoors increases. A good facial cleanser can unclog the pores sunscreen can leave behind. Try Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash Pink Grapefruit cleanser and foaming scrub to leave skin clean, refreshed and smelling just like summer. Also, drop a package of the cleansing wipes into your beach bag for a quick pore cleansing as you leave the beach.
Think coral when it comes to summer colors. The mixture of orange and red is bright, vivid and perfect for lips and nails. Try Covergirl's Lip Perfection Jumbo Gloss Balm in coral twist and Essie's alluring coral peach from their resort 2014 line.

FM Facility Maintenance
Transforming Facility Management Into a Competitive Advantage
FM Facility Maintenance Offers a Convenient, Single-Source Solution
One of the largest convenience store chains in the world was searching for a comprehensive solution to address the massive task of maintaining its entire portfolio of stores in North America. The challenge was to identify a third-party facility management company capable of implementing a fully integrated plan that produced the strategic results desired by "corporate" and also met the day-to-day tactical needs of the company's entrepreneurial franchisees that represent the lifeblood of the worldwide brand. The company turned to FM Facility Maintenance, an industry leader in integrated facility solutions that provides intelligent facility, construction, and energy management solutions for leading retail, convenience store and restaurant chains and other businesses across North America.
Despite a global trend that shows convenience store maintenance costs rising by as much as 18 percent over the last three years, FM Facility Maintenance has been able to drive down its client's overall maintenance cost by an impressive 11 percent during that same time span. FM Facility Maintenance has been able to achieve these results by introducing efficiencies and new techniques that are much more predictive, proactive and responsive. More important, FM has partnered with the company's franchisees to develop new tools and techniques that speak to their everyday business concerns and have given them complete visibility into the utilization and performance of their revenue-generating assets.
"We were able to reduce the chain's operating costs per store by over 14 percent adjusted for inflation, while maintaining 99.5 percent uptime for key revenue-producing equipment," says Jim Reavey, CEO of FM Facility Maintenance. "We also helped our client manage their store growth more effectively, enhancing their relationships with their national stores, and offered solid guidance in prioritizing capital requirements to effectively address the aging of store equipment."
Fast-Growing Provider of Integrated Facilities Solutions
Based in Hartford, Conn., FM Facility Maintenance manages over 30,000 customer locations, representing more than $500 million in spending. The company helps customers manage and maintain everything from high-tech broilers and freezers to advanced POS systems to plumbing, lighting, flooring, landscaping, signage, fire protection equipment and beyond, through its network of over 7,500 pre-qualified service providers, who handle over 2 million client work orders annually. The success of FM Facility Maintenance's comprehensive, proactive approach to serving customers has earned the company recognition as one of the "Top Fastest Growing Private Businesses in America" by Inc. Magazine in its Inc. 500|5000 list for the last three years.
Reavey credits an innovative, fully integrated technology platform and field-proven delivery model, along with knowledgeable industry experts and a network of elite service providers, for making FM Facility Maintenance the partner of choice for some of the largest Fortune 500 companies with geographically dispersed portfolios.
"What sets us apart from our competition is our ability to identify operational improvements that drive down cost, and provide the proactive analyses our clients need to make more informed decisions," notes Reavey. "Further, our scale, density and strong network of valued service providers allow us to deliver exceptional service in the industry at competitive rates.
"By aligning our clients' facilities management with their financial and operational strategies and objectives, we help them reduce costs, increase productivity, grow revenues and protect their brand image. They are also able to allocate capital more effectively, budget more accurately and prepare more realistic financial forecasts. Their success becomes our success."
With companies everywhere looking for new and better ways to reduce cost and stay competitive, FM Facility Maintenance is showing how more efficient and economical facility maintenance can become a competitive advantage. "We helped one of the world's most popular convenience store retailers become even more popular among customers and investors alike," Reavey says. "Imagine how we can help your company."

Quite a comedown for U.S. stocks at this point in the session, as major averages slide into negative territory after earlier spiking higher upon release of Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke's prepared testimony.
Dow industrials were up almost 155 points at their high, now down 35. Tech-heavy Nasdaq Comp falls 31 points and S&P 500 sheds 9 points.

CSPI to Sue Cadbury Schweppes over All Natural 7UP
High Fructose Corn Syrup Not Remotely Natural, Says CSPI
May 11, 2006
The company that makes the uncola is accused of telling an untruth in a new marketing campaign that touts 7UP as 100% natural. The nonprofit Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) will sue 7UPs manufacturer, Cadbury Schweppes, unless the company drops the claim. Although the company removed several artificial ingredients from the drink, at least one remains: high fructose corn syrup.
Sunny new television ads for 7UP show cans of the drink being picked from fruit trees, or harvested from the ground, yet there is no fruit juice in 7UP. The narrator says it tastes better than ever because we stripped out all the artificial stuff leaving just five all natural ingredients. Besides carbonated water and high fructose corn syrup, the other three are citric acid, unspecified natural flavors, and potassium citrate. Though not any better or worse nutritionally than plain table sugar, high fructose corn syrup is spawned from a complex, multistep industrial process by which starch is extracted from corn and converted with acids or enzymes into glucose and fructose.
Pretending that soda made with high fructose corn syrup is all natural, is just plain old deception, said CSPI executive director Michael F. Jacobson. High fructose corn syrup isnt something you could cook up from a bushel of corn in your kitchen, unless you happen to be equipped with centrifuges, hydroclones, ion-exchange columns, and buckets of enzymes.
In a legal notice to Cadbury Schweppes executives, CSPI litigation director Steve Gardner wrote that the primary purpose of the suit would be to prohibit the company from describing any product with high fructose corn syrup as natural, and that CSPI would also seek restitution, corrective advertising, and attorneys fees. CSPIs announcement comes a week after Cadbury, Coca-Cola, and PepsiCo agreed not to sell sugary soda in schools, thus avoiding a separate lawsuit CSPI and other parties intended to file.
The Food and Drug Administration does not have an official definition for natural foods. Nor does it take action to prevent food companies from calling the most obviously artificial ingredients natural. For example, CSPI once complained about Ben & Jerrys All Natural ice creams, which variously included such obviously non-natural ingredients as hydrogenated oil, corn syrup, alkalized cocoa powder, and even artificial flavors. But FDA took no action other than sending CSPI a letter indicating that natural was not among our current enforcement priorities.
In March the Sugar Association, which represents cane and beet sugar producers, petitioned the FDA to define natural. While FDA has no definition, the U.S. Department of Agriculture allows only those meat and poultry products that have been minimally processed can be labeled as natural. CSPI wrote to the FDA in support of the Sugar Associations petition and urged the agency to adopt a definition identical to USDAs. That would mean that high fructose corn syrup, partially hydrogenated oils, and other ingredients that are more than minimally processed couldnt be called natural.
If the FDA were doing its job, perhaps a lawsuit wouldnt be necessary, said Gardner, who will work with Massachusetts attorney Ken Quat on a Cadbury Schweppes suit. While this particular mislabeling doesnt present much of a health threat, consumers and honest companies shouldnt have to put up with dishonest claims in the marketplace. Happily, though, several states have excellent consumer protection laws that can be used to stop deceptive advertising.
CSPI said it will consider other legal action against companies that use high fructose corn syrup in their ostensibly all natural products.
