I'm using this plugin now successfully and it has been great so far. I had requirement to show a blog stream from member blogs in the main blog.
I have observed one problem wherein the plugin includes the post in a blog stream when a user saves a draft of the post and the blog stream is checked. This publishes the pending posts of contributers while they are being moderated.
bbaggregate/bbAggregate.php: function save_post_stream_data: added condition && $_POST['post_status'] == 'publish'. Now the changed code is:
if( isset($_POST['bbagg_stream_ids']) && ! empty($_POST['bbagg_stream_ids']) && $_POST['post_status'] == 'publish' ) {
Thanks for the great plugin

I grabbed WP out of CVS today, deciding I'll start over from scratch again, if it's what it takes to get things working again.
It had creation of permalinks to use with mod_rewrite. I thought this'd be a good thing for me.
However, what I ended up with was an Internal Server Error on its inclusion.
The contents of my .htaccess, just in case it's other contents are relevant:
DirectoryIndex index.php index.html
ErrorDocument 404 /404.php

The portion at the end is what I just added, from what WordPress gave me for creating my preferred cleaner links.
Is there something I have missed?

So I am working on a project that uses a ASP.NET server and we have entities being passed over WCF from LINQ-to-Entity queries. I have already overcome the cyclic reference issue with WCF. Now that I am looking toward the next step, the Flex UI, I am wondering what things people have already faced either with dealing with WCF from Flex or using Entities with Flex (Entities from the entity framework)? And Flex suggestions, libraries, patterns and tips would help. Thanks.
Things that would help:
- How to "persist" or dupe entities on the UI side.
- Security, how to secure communication from the UI to the service.
- How to generate/pass new entities from the UI to the service and have then interprete as .NET entities

I introduce to you Matt McGinnis
AKA Robin
My story will take place in the future
Damian Wayne will be an old man
Daughter will be old rich billionaire
Tim drake in his death bed
Bruce and jason todd will be dead
Terry will be older 30s
Just after around the time he found out Bruce was his actual father
And max just turned 19 which means he was only 5 in the original batman beyond series and terry was 16 ... 11 years older than Matt
The first page will start off with
Terry as batman beyond fighting a group of jokers while a new villain "TWC" short for "the wild card" sits and watches in laughter
(TWC will be the biological son of Tim drake before he was rid of that joker DnA which took over his son )
While they are fighting TWC gets bored of watching and say oh pooh this is getting rather boring I think I might just end it now and cuts a rope that was next to him causing a huge object to fall down on batman & the jokers he was fighting ... Boss help .. He laughs starts to walk away and says take one for the team then sets the building on fire terrys suit helps him escape along with the two jokers he was fighting but he's badly injured he has his suit fly him home it shows him in the hospital the doctors are telling him his hips and leg are broken and he may never walk again....hey lays back in bed and falls asleep
He wakes up there is someone standing over him who resembles Bruce but he's obviously not him cuz Bruce is dead .....
Terry says Bruce? Am I dreaming
No terry I'm not Bruce I'm Damian wayne better know as the last robin or the person who designed that bat suit you wear I've been keeping close tabs on you since my dad died ...
What do you want
I'm going to cut right two it
Gotham needs a protector and right now with your injures you cannot do it
I think it's time to bring Matt into the family business
No Matt cant do it he isn't trained he knows nothing of the batman role or that I'm even the batman
A young boy hops threw the window ...
Wrong I know all about it I also know that Bruce wayne the original batman is our real father and damian is our brother

Sheer Berry
The stain that started it all. tarte's award-winning and best-selling cheek stain gives you a gorgeous, natural flush in a gel or cream consistency. Rounded top cheek stains are gel based stains, while flat top cheek stains are the cream based version.
Product Performance: This lightweight glow-getter imparts a natural flush - like someone just pinched your cheeks! Get the look of love and an instant pop of soft & dreamy color by applying this to the apples of your cheeks. Unlike traditional stains that are hard to apply, this goof-proof tint melts into skin easily and gives you 20 seconds of blending time before it sets in place for all day wear.
Powered By: t5 super fruit complex™: a proprietary blend of the five most active antioxidant-rich superfruits (maracuja, goji, acai, acerola, and pomegranate), this complex delivers anti-aging and skin-restorative benefits to skin with each application.
Always formulated without: parabens, mineral oil, phthalates, triclosan, sodium lauryl sulfate, gluten

Remove the protective plastic disc from the top of the cheek tint. Sometimes humidity creates a bit of liquid/wetness on the top of the cheek tint. If so, simply wipe it off with a dry tissue. Cheek stain can be worn alone or over foundation or powder to give a natural, healthy flush. Directly from the container, dab it on the apples of your cheeks, blend the edges, and go- it is that easy. Layer for more intense color.

Comments about tarte cheek stain, flush, .5 oz:
I bought my first Tarte Flush stick in 2006 and I used it everyday until I finally had to buy another one in 2011! (Don't worry, it still looked and smelled fine!) The second one lasted me until last week when I purchased my third Flush.
The only thing devastating about the new stick is that it is HALF the size of my old stick--but for the same price.
Aside from the shrinking size, it's still a great product. A little bit goes a long way and obviously it will last you ages. It looks very natural and stays on all day. It's not sticky or thick. It's just the right amount of color to wake up your face.

Comments about tarte cheek stain, flush, .5 oz:
I like this product. Very natural and it blends well. I would recommend this product for a quick bit of color (maybe after a workout, beach, after a swim, etc.) but I would not recommend this item for all-day wear as it just doesn't last longer than 4-5 hours. I also tried this as a lip stain but it doesn't have the best taste.

Oops, something didn't work.
What happened to the ability to add a background picture, draw on top of it and then remove it leaving only the drawing?
For the less talented of us that was a really nice feature that seems to have been taken away.
This is really nice work. Do the brushes use tilt data if the hardware supports it?
@Rui You can still import background images! The easiest way to do it is "New from Image" in the dashboard of the app. Let us know if you have more questions at firstname.lastname@example.com
@Erin you didn't understand the question, which was how to remove the picture and leave the tracing. this also is my question.
Hi ,can ask an unrelated question?
I agree with Rui they have removed the outline button in the update. How do you remove the background image in fresh paint while leaving the drawn images on the canvas?
Fresh Paint is awesome! Thank you for being so passionate about making this a great program. This was a helpful video!

A look back at some of the biggest small business and start-up stories from the past week, with a focus on Washington.
The economy continues to grow slowly: Despite marginal help from small businesses, the economy added a better-than-expected 175,000 jobs last month, according to data issued by the the Labor Department. Still, it wasn't enough to prevent the national unemployment rate from nudging up a tenth of a point to 7.6 percent.
Small business lending on the rise: On a brighter note, small businesses are starting to get their hands on the capital they so desperately need. A number of reports in the past month show that the credit market that remained largely frozen after the recession has started to thaw for entrepreneurs in search of funding.
Silicon Valley at the center of federal data mining program: The National Security Agency has been tapping into the servers of nine of the biggest Internet firms in Silicon Valley, including Facebook, Google, Yahoo and Microsoft, according to files obtained by The Washington Post. The companies have denied knowledge of the program.
Competition heating up in the point-of-sale arena:Square unveiled an iPad app for quick-service restaurants, Groupon launched its new point-of-sale system for the iPad, and PayPal integrated with several third-party mobile payment systems — all in the past month, and all in an attempt to take the lead in the small business payments market.
Small business owners back LGBT protections: A strong majority of small business owners believe federal and state laws should prohibit workplace discrimination against gay and transgender people, according to a new poll released by the Small Business Majority. Moreover, most do not realize such laws do not exist at the federal level.
Nation's capital ripe for small businesses: Washington, D.C. ranks second (right behind Houston, Texas) on a new list of the fastest growing small business cities in the United States. Compiled by lending marketplace Biz2Credit, the rankings take into account business size, age, annual revenue, and credit scores in each metropolitan region.
OSB start-up of the week: Valkee: The start-up has raised $9.7 million from venture capitalists for a device meant to alleviate seasonal affective disorder by shining bright lights into users' ears.

Halloween-Inspired Gift Tags
*Some of the links in this post may be Amazon affiliate links, which help pay for Lemon Jitters supplies. All opinions are my own. Thanks for supporting LJ!
Halloween is just around the corner. If you gift little treats to co-workers, friends, classmates, etc, how about adding a fancy-schmancy Halloween (ish) gift tag? Even if you're not into Halloween, I think you might find some inspiration in these pretty paper supplies!
Supplies needed:
Wooden shapes (I think Target has a great price for these)
Black and white card stock (I used some from My Mind's Eye, Sweetest Thing: Honey)
Orange card stock (My favorite basic colors paper pad)
American Crafts' Gemstone embossing folder (with an embossing machine, of course)
Adhesive tape runner (or glue dots)
Embellishments (I LOVE these gold puffy letters, black adhesive pearls, white enamel dots, translucent arrows, die cut shapes and gold stickers from Heidi Swapp)
Step 1: Make your own gift tag base in two quick steps.
a. Cut a piece of card stock 2.62 x 5.25 inches. If you want, snip the top edges off to look like a shipping tag.
b. Punch a hole at the top of the tag and, if you're feeling fancy, add an eyelet using an eyelet
setter (I use the Crop A Dile tool).
Step 2: Emboss your plain colored card stock and trim down to a square that fits onto the tag base. Is it an exaggeration to say that these American Crafts' embossing folders might change your life? I think not. If you've used embossing folders in the past, these will blow.your.mind.
Adhere the embossed piece to the tag base with adhesive tape runner.
Step 3: Embellish. I added 'boo' in puffy gold stickers to a little wooden shape and taped that down, added a vellum butterfly from my stash, a plastic arrow and a couple of black adhesive pearls. I finished the whole thing off with black lace ribbon through the eyelet.
Pretty dang cute.
The other tag is made with the same formula. For this one, I painted the wooden square a minty green color so it wouldn't be so Halloween-ish. The embellishments were hanging around in my stash - a piece of gold vellum, white enamel dot, die cut leaves from the Maggie Holmes Confetti floral dies, and a 'lucky' sticker from Heidi Swapp's Hello Beautiful collection. Finished off with orange embroidery floss.
What do you think about these non-traditional Halloween tags? Would you be happy to receive them attached to treats? (You don't have to lie, I know the treats are the exciting part. ;) ).

VANCOUVER, British Columbia -- During the medal ceremony for men's figure skating, the public-address announcer introduced Daisuke Takahashi, who took his position on the lowest level of the podium for the bronze medal. Then the announcer introduced Russian silver medalist Evgeni Plushenko, who jokingly stepped onto the podium's uppermost level, where American Evan Lysacek was to receive his gold medal, before stepping to his rightful position.
Or maybe it wasn't such a joke.
"I was positive I had won," said Plushenko, the 2006 gold medalist. "But I suppose Evan needs a gold medal more than I do because I already have one."
That's the spirit, Evgeni. Them's the fightin' words we remember from the old days of the Cold War, when an Olympic showdown between Americans and Soviets was cause for an arms buildup and a trade embargo, or at least a Tom Clancy novel and a trademark phrase from Al Michaels.
Lysacek did not perform the celebrated quad Thursday night, but he pulled off the much more rewarding leapfrog over Plushenko in the men's final with a total score of 257.67 to Plushenko's 256.36. He became the first American male Olympic figure skating champion since Brian Boitano won at the 1988 Calgary Games, and the first men's gold medalist since then who was not born in the former Soviet Union.
"Do you believe in sequins?! Yes!"
Lysacek entered the free program in second place, trailing Plushenko by .55 points. The quad is the most difficult move in men's figure skating (apart from stepping onto the ice in one of Johnny Weir's costumes), but unlike Plushenko, Lysacek chose not to attempt it. Instead, he focused on his other leaps and elements -- the spins, steps, triple jumps, etc. -- and performed almost all of them flawlessly.
When he finished his program, he spun with such force that his hair flipped up in back, which is no small accomplishment given the way he shellacs it to his scalp. He punched his fists in triumph while still spinning and all but waved a big foam finger in the air when he finished.
"I can't help it," he said. "I just was excited. I was trying to keep my cool, but after each jump, I got excited. It was just a special moment for me."
And when Lysacek finally received his gold medal and stood atop the podium, he said he had so many thoughts running through his mind that he could have stood there for an hour. Which apparently was one of the rarer moments when his single-minded focus slipped.
"My thought process here was basically, 'Mind your own business,'" Lysacek said. "I wrote it on a little card when I got here and taped it up in my room: 'Mind your own business.' Worry about what I have to do and what my job is, and the truth of the matter is that mission was accomplished here."
Mission accomplished, perhaps, but the war over the importance of the quad goes on. Plushenko wasn't willing to concede defeat, all but inviting Lysacek over to a high-jump pit.
"I think we need to change the judging system because quad is quad," Plushenko said. "If [the] Olympic champion doesn't know how to jump a quad, it isn't men's figure skating, it's men's ice dancing."
Over to you, Evan.
"If it were a jumping competition, they would give you 10 seconds to run and do your best jump," Lysacek said. "But it's a four-minute, 40-second program, and it's about sustaining that level of skating and excitement from start to finish. And that's what I've been working on every day."
So was Lysacek's victory a statement that the quad isn't the be-all, end-all in figure skating? Or merely a case of him being better than Plushenko on the biggest night of his career?
"Plushenko was brilliant in the jumping and did some brilliant, very difficult things," said Lysacek's coach, Frank Carroll. "But if you think of his skating, it was up, very brilliant, and then down, and then very brilliant, and down. It was going in waves, while Evan just sort of stayed in a straight line and kept going at a certain level from the start to the finish. So I think evaluating the downs and the ups is what was difficult for the judges."
"The quad does separate the two classes," said Jeremy Abbott, who climbed from 15th to ninth. "There's sort of a group that can do the quad and a group that is artistic and they kind of need to come together. You need to do the quad and you need to have skating skills. You need to spin and do everything else. As far as the quad goes, I think it's kind of irrelevant if the quad is all you can do. The future of the sport are the people who have the full package."
And if by the full package, you mean everything but the quad, Lysacek was certainly that Thursday.
"Evan is a good combination of athleticism and artistry," said longtime rival Johnny Weir, who finished sixth. "That's an amazing accomplishment, and I'm very proud of him. I can't say anything bad like everybody wants me to -- I can feel it coming from you, wafting. Evan has always worked hard his whole career and he continues to. Even yesterday, he did a full run-through of his whole program when everyone else was kind of walking through the motions, and that's something I really respect about him as an athlete. But when you work hard, you can win big."
So after 22 years, the gold medal is back on American soil, though Congress may need to raise taxes for a rhinestone buildup because Plushenko said he just might return in four years (when he will be 31) to take it back.
"My basic position is that movement was always go forward, never stop, never go back," Plushenko said. "As I said, I knew I would accept any result whatever the outcome. But after this defeat, I'm not going to put my hands down and stop. And I think people need to do lots of quads."

Bank-card delinquencies fell to an 18-year low of 2.75% during Q3, the American Bankers Association says. Delayed payments in a composite ratio of eight loan categories, which doesn't include bank cards or mortgages, fell to 2.16% of all accounts from 2.24% in Q2. However, the ABA warns that weak hiring and the expiration of the payroll tax cut could make it harder for consumers to repay debt.

Near Fell and Clayton this afternoon:
This kind of thing happens with regularity…
The house you see on the left used to be on the right – they moved it east a good 40 yards to make way.
Anyway, this location on busy, busy Oak will soon raise the profile of The Urban School…
Camera left shows the Ranger and camera right shows the errant dog owner.
I've never seen this:
Reader Notes:
I'm assuming the dog's unlicensed, as the vast majority of canines aren't licensed in Frisco and I imagine the rate for non leash owning dog owners is lower still.
Don't know if any woo woo or wee wee came out or if it was picked up.
The owner and dog sauntered away, with no threat of getting cited, it appeared.
Anyway, I've never seen this…
You know what's odd? We have the ability to count cyclists (oh, I'm sorry, PEOPLE ON BIKES or PEOPLE WITH BIKES instead, to use the proper post-2015 "framing," you know, to influence your opinion, you know, subconsciously) but not to how fast they're speeding downhill on our Panhandle Bike Path.
Hey, what's the speed limit on this path? Oh, no signs posted. Hey, how fast can a roadie get coming inbound on skinny high-PSI tires, downhill, and with the prevailing tailwind? IDK, 25 MPH pretty easily?
Anyway, here's the group of slow slow tourists heading east. They didn't have much respect for the lane lines, as you can see:
And these two guys passed them going the other way. One was obviously irate. He was all, "USE YOUR HEADS, USE YOUR BRAINS!"
IDK, man. I get his point about the tourists, but I think his expectations of the Panhandle Bike Path are too high. IMO, we all need to look out for others…
Red skies at night, or sky blue pink, take your pick
Relax and swing:
UPDATE: Oh, here's some new video from ground zero:
Here's a photo of how it looks close up – a big thanks to Jeff Waldman:

"Kulim Town" Kulim by lalatbotak
Kulim Travel Guide: 16 reviews and 13 photos
This is the town where I was born and bred. A sleepy hollow which blossomed into a gigantic industrial hub.
Streets which where once deserted by 6.30 pm has emerged into a township burtsling with activity right into the depths of night. Kulim somehow still manages to retain its rustic , small town image with quaint kampongs stringed like pearls along its fringes.
The Old Town quaters started as a line of shophouses along the Jalan Raya before WW2. So the initial beggining of the Old Kulim Town was just a row of shophouses along the main road. The town gradually grew in size as more shophouses were erected sometime before the out break of WW2. In the late 50's and early 60's more buildings and shophouses were build as the town blossomed into sort of a mini metropolis in South Kedah.
The iconic Kulim Clock Tower was built to commemorate the Merdeka Celebration . I still remember the Sepuluh Tahun Merdeka Celebrations in 1967 where we have motorized floats and procession along the main road to celebrate Merdeka!
The Old Town is surrounded by rubber plantations ,notebly the Merah Estate near Jalan Pegawai ( old name :- Jalan Merah ) and Tin Mines which is located near the present Bus Station. The hums of the Tin dredge was be heard into the distance during the old days.
The old wet market was built in 1959 , so the inhabitants of Kulim did their daily shopping of vegetables,meat,fish etc at the 'new' market from there on. Back in the 50's and early 60's we have chinese fishmongers going from house to house on bicycles selling their produce to housewifes who patiently wait for the them to make a pit stop at their door steps. The fish,prawns and squids are carried in huge bakuls packed with ice while the greens are nearly arranged around and on top of the bakuls. Balancing the bicycle was indeed an art only posessed by the fishmongers at that particular time in Kulim's history.
Till the late 60's and early 70's the unit measure we were using was the Kati and Tahils to buy foodstuff , fish and greens . Rice was sold in Chupak and Gantangs. The metric system was still unheard of. Paperbags and not plastic bags was the order of the day.!!
In the mid 60's the Kulim Bus Station was on the portside of the Kulim Wet Market. As you board the busses you will be able to see the commerce going around the market, the slaughtering and manual prosessing of chickens and many more unimaginable sights to behold.
Kulim Town had three theaters at that time. The Cathay Cinema, the Capitol and the Coronation. Special mention about the Coronation Theater, rubber tappers ,budget minded inhabitants flocked to this particular theater to view re runs of old films. The seats are way down cheaper compared to the Cathay and Capitol which usually broadcast first run but late flicks!
The Rumah Murah located at the terminal end of Jalan Tengku Bendahara was completed in 1965 and was sold mostly to government servants working as clerks ,peons etc.

The Alexandra Thyme Festival workshop billed as "Cooking with
the Mayor" attracted a small but hungry audience yesterday.
The hour-long session with the mayor at the helm, cooking
venison, was not his idea, Mr Lepper said, and in fact he was
reluctant to be centre stage - "I think I said no at least
three times."
However, as a keen hunter and the person who did the cooking
for his family, he was eventually persuaded to extol the
virtues of venison.
The most appreciative member of the five-strong audience was
4-year-old Andrew Baird, of Earnscleugh, who sampled all the
different venison dishes cooked by Mr Lepper and came back
for seconds, and thirds.
"I love it all ... that, and that, and that," he said, in
between mouthfuls, pointing at the various plates of food.
Mr Lepper said some of his dishes were the result of
Yesterday, he served up schnitzel, marinated steaks,
casserole, sausages, stir fry and kebabs as well as pointing
out the advantages of venison.
"It's lean, organic and you're getting rid of a pest animal
when you hunt it."
Although the samples he cooked were farmed venison, bought in
a supermarket, many Central Otago residents were keen
hunters, so they could source their own.
"Over the years, I've enjoyed the pursuit. You can't help but
love getting out into the country, and it keeps you fit," Mr
Lepper said.
"It used to be unusual to see wild deer around Earnscleugh,
but now, when I'm working in my other job and checking
irrigation races around Earnscleugh, it's quite often you see
a deer or two and a few orchardists complain about deer
eating their trees too."

Reconsidering the Privacy of Office Computers
By CARL S. KAPLAN
Published: July 27, 2001
If you use a computer at work to send e-mail or surf the Internet, you may be aware of a legal principle that seems to have sprung up overnight: You have no right of privacy in on-the-job online communications.
If you haven't heard about this new legal rule of thumb, chances are your employer has. A number of courts in recent years have given the rule their blessing. One respected judge and writer on Internet topics, however, begs to disagree.
According to Judge James M. Rosenbaum, chief judge of the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota, in Minneapolis, the new "legal principle" of carte blanche employer searches of worker computers ought to be further examined.
In a provocative and mercifully brief essay recently published in The Green Bag, a literate and entertaining law review, Judge Rosenbaum expressed uneasiness with the widely-accepted proposition that employees have no rights in the face of what he termed "an electronic rummage through their lives."
"The present concept permits -- and even encourages – 'Big Brother' searches," wrote Judge Rosenbaum. "Most employers are not governmental entities, so constitutional search and seizure issues are not directly implicated. But just as an employee does not surrender all privacy rights on the company's premises, so they should not be automatically surrendered on the company's computers."
The new legal rule in Judge Rosenbaum's cross hairs seems to flow from the idea that a company that owns a computer also owns what's in it. The theory has an important consequence. It entitles employers to search employees' hard drives and other corporate computer records for any reason without restriction.
That's good news for companies that wish to detect and stop productivity losses, guard against potential hostile workplace lawsuits or limit the risk of the transfer of trade secrets. But what about the right of an average, imperfect employee? Must he live in fear that someday his boss, without notice, will search his computer and find evidence of some minor wrongdoing -- repeated visits to L.L. Bean -- or an unpopular notion written in e-mail.
"I have, happily, never sneaked around in the other computers in my building," wrote Judge Rosenbaum. "But if the others are anything like mine each hard drive contains at least a bit of idle stuff. And if this is so, each employee stands subject to a search which goes, without restriction, far beyond any legitimate business interest."
Companies seem to be exercising their "right" to snoop. According to a report distributed earlier this month by the Privacy Foundation, a privacy watchdog based in Denver, up to 14 million U.S. workers are subject to continuous surveillance of their e-mail and Internet use. That means roughly one of every three of the 40 million employees using e-mail or the Internet on the job are monitored systematically, the group said in a statement accompanying the report.
In addition, a study released in the spring by the American Management Association, a New York-based management development and training non-profit, concluded that more than three-quarters of major U.S. firms now spot-check their employees' phone calls, e-mails, Internet activities and computer files. The figure has doubled since 1997, driven principally by employer concerns about liability for workplace harassment, said Eric Rolfe Greenberg, the group's director of management studies.
In his article, "In Defense of the Hard Drive," Judge Rosenbaum cited an example of what he thought to be an overly broad search -- a 1999 probe by The New York Times Company of employee computer records at its office in Norfolk, Virginia, that handles most of the company's personal records, accounting and payroll operations. Following its investigation, 23 workers at the Norfolk office were dismissed for sending what were considered obscene messages. Judge Rosenbaum noted in his essay that the "nettlesome" sexual messages were "unearthed" as a result of a separate investigation concerning another employee matter.
Kathy Park, a spokeswoman for The Times Company, said that the company stands by its 1999 actions, which were in keeping with its e-mail policy that, in part, bans the creation, forwarding or display of offensive or disruptive messages. She added that the company does not conduct random searches of employees' computer files but only searches if a complaint has a reasonable basis.
Of course, many other companies or government organizations have fired people for what is contained in their e-mail, or because of unauthorized visits to inappropriate Web sites. Last month, for example, the Associated Press reported that more than 20 state employees in South Dakota were fired or disciplined for violating rules on Internet use. The action came in the wake of an investigation by state officials of the state government's top 100 Internet users, according to the news report.
Recognizing that there must be a better balance between an employer's concerns for proper computer use and the employee's interest in personal privacy, Judge Rosenbaum proposed in his article a "cyber time-out." He said that an employer with a "definable reason" to examine an employee's computer ought to be permitted to do so. But prior to the search, the employer ought to give the worker notice of its concerns, perhaps 72 hours before the actual snooping. During the time-out, the worker can seek legal redress, if any, seek to limit the search, or even attempt to resolve matters. If the examination proceeds, the employee or a representative should be able to attend. Perhaps most importantly, once the subject of the search has been refined, the examination must be restricted to the noticed areas -- stored information beyond its scope is out of bounds.

Thirumalisai Alvar
This article is about Saint Thirumalisai Alvar. For the Tamil language film, see Thirumalisai Alvar (1948 film)
Thirumalisai Alvar is a Tamil saint revered in the Srivaishnavism school of south India, in Tondai Nadu (now part of Kanchipuram and Tiruvallur districts). He was born in 4203 BCE.[1][2] The legend of this saint devotees of Srivaishnavism believe that he was the incarnation of Vishnu's disc, Sudarshana. He is believed to have been born at Jagannatha Perumal temple, Tirumazhisai by divine grace.
A childless tribal couple called Tiruvaalan and Pankaya Chelvi engaged in cutting canes found the child and took it home. The couple also had a son named Kanikannan who was a disciple of Thirumalisai Alvar.
Thirumalisai Alvar proclaimed that he didn't belonged to Brahmin, Kshatriya, Vaishya & Shudra in one of his couplets as he was considered (Avarna) untouchable and casteless person.
The word azhwar means the one who dives deep into the ocean of the countless attributes of god. Azhwars are considered the twelve supreme devotees of Vishnu, who were instrumental in popularising Vaishnavism. The religious works of these saints in Tamil, songs of love and devotion, are compiled as Nalayira Divya Prabandham containing 4000 verses and the 108 temples revered in their songs are classified as Divya desam.[3][4] The saints had different origins and belonged to different castes. As per tradition, the first three azhwars, Poigai, Bhutha and Pey were born miraculously. Tirumizhisai was the son of a sage, Thondaradi, Mathurakavi, Peria and Andal were from brahmin community, Kulasekhara from Kshatria community, Namm was from a cultivator family, Tirupana from panar community and Tirumangai from kazhwar community. Divya Suri Saritra by Garuda-Vahana Pandita (11th century AD), Guruparamparaprabavam by Pinbaragiya Perumal Jiyar, Periya tiru mudi adaivu by Anbillai Kandadiappan, Yatindra Pranava Prabavam by Pillai Lokacharya, commentaries on Divya Prabandam, Guru Parampara (lineage of Gurus) texts, temple records and inscriptions give a detailed account of the azhwars and their works. According to these texts, the saints were considered incarnations of some form of Vishnu. Poigai is considered an incarnation of Panchajanya (Krishna's conch), Bhoothath of Kaumodakee (Vishnu's Mace/Club), Pey of Nandaka (Vishnu's sword), Thirumalisai of Sudarshanam (Vishnu's discus), Namm of Vishvaksena (Vishnu's commander), Madhurakavi of Vainatheya (Vishnu's eagle, Garuda), Kulasekhara of Kaustubha (Vishnu's necklace), Periy of Garuda (Vishnu's eagle), Andal of Bhoodevi (Vishnu's wife, Lakshmi, in her form as Bhudevi), Thondaradippodi of Vanamaalai (Vishnu's garland), Thiruppaan of Srivatsa (An auspicious mark on Vishnu's chest) and Thirumangai of Saranga (Rama's bow). The songs of Prabandam are regularly sung in all the Vishnu temples of South India daily and also during festivals.[4][5]
Early life[edit]
The name of the Azhwar comes from his birthplace, Thirumazhisai, a suburb in modern day Chennai.[6] He was born to Bhargava maharishi and his wife Kanakangi after an unusual 12 months stay in the womb. The fetus came out as just a lifeless lump of flesh with no arms and legs. The couple were terribly depressed and with unwillingness left it under a bamboo bush and proceeded with their spiritual journey. Vishnu appeared with his consort and blessed the "flesh" with their kataksham and it turned into an lively human being.
He was later picked up with both the arms affectionately by a tribal named Thiruvalan. A really blessed couple Thiruvalan and pankajavalli, was overwhelmed by the grace of god for this gift of a baby. The boy grew on to become Thirumazhisai azhwar. He also has an eye on his right leg.He lived up to 10 years of age in a hamlet near thirumazhisai village named as Pirayampathu. This Alwar was an incarnation of Sudarsana Chakra ( the divine discus of Lord Vishnu).
Thirumazhisai Alwar decided to learn about all other religions. He studied Buddhist, Jain and other literature. He became a staunch devotee of Siva assuming the name of Siva Vakya. One day, he saw an old man planting a plant upside down and then trying to water it with a broken pot using a tattered rope to lift water from a waterless well. Sivavakyar asked him why he was attempting such a foolish act. The old man was none other than Pey Alwar who replied that what he was doing was only less foolish than Sivavakya's allegiance to Saivism, knowing full well that the Vedas and Smritis proclaim Sri Narayana as the Supreme deity.As a result of an argument with Pey Alwar, finally he got initiated into Vaishnavism by Pey Alwar.
It is said that Lord Shiva gave him his darshan and offered him a boon that the alwar would seek. The Alwar wanted 'Moksha" for which Lord Shiva replied that he wil not do that since Alwar was an incarnation of Sudarsana Chakra, and the next is the Alwar wanted a Long Life for which Lord Shiva replied that it has already been pre-ordained. The great Alwar then asked Lord Shiva that if he could not grant 'Moksha' and only Lord Narayana could then he could offer his services to Narayana only. Lord Shiva then granted him the title 'Bakthisara" the honorofic by which he came to be known. After visiting several temples, he reached Tiruvekka, the birthplace of Poigai Alwar.
Learning different religions[edit]
Thirumazhisai decided to learn about all other religions. So, he studied Buddhism, Jainism and other literature. He became a staunch devotee of Siva assuming the name of Siva VAkya. One day, he saw an old man planting a plant upside down and then trying to water it with a broken pot using a tattered rope to lift water from a waterless well. Sivavakyar asked him why he was attempting such a foolish act. The old man was none other than Pey AzhwAr who replied that what he was doing was only less foolish than Sivavakya's allegiance to Saivam, knowing full well that the Vedas and Smritis proclaim Sri Narayana as the Supreme deity.
As a result of an argument with Pey Azhwar, he finally got initiated into Srivaishnavam by Peyalvar. After visiting several temples, he reached Tiruvekkaa, the birthplace of Budat Azhwar. Tirumazhisai Azhwar himself says
சக்கியம் கற்றோம், சமணம் கற்றோம், சங்கரனார் ஆக்கிய ஆகமநூல்
ஆராய்ந்தோம்; பாக்கியத்தால் வெங்கட்கரியனை சேர்ந்தோம்
sAkkiyam katrOm, SamaNam katrOm, SankaranAr aakkiya Aagamanool
aarAindhOM; BhaggiyathAl venkaTkariyAnai SerndOm
" We had learned SAkkiyam (Buddhism) SamaNam (Jainism) and the Agamic Scriptures made by Lord Shankara (Shiva); Due to sheer grace, we landed at the feet of TiruvengadathAN. "
There is also evidence in his couplets that show that he asked God to help reveal their ignorance to them.
Displeasing Pallava king[edit]
Legend also says that when Kanikannan, his disciple displeased the pallava king for not agreeing to restore the king's youth. Earlier on he granted youth to an old unmarried maid of the temple. The king married that woman but he himself was an old man and thus wanted to enjoy life as a youth with his new wife. Tirumalisai refused him and the king decided to banish him. Tirumalisai Alvar asked the God from the temple, Yathotkari, to leave with him.

" KanikaNNan is going out of kAnchi Oh! Manivanna!, You don't have to lie here anymore. Since, as the fluent poet that I am also leaving with him, you also roll your serpent bed and follow me"And, accordingly all of them left KAnchipuram "
Vishnu is said to have rolled up the snake Sesha like a mattress and left with him.
There are 216 of his paasurams in the 4000 Divya Prabhandham. His first Prabandham named Thiruchchanda Viruththam contains 120 hymns and starts from 752 paasuram and ends at 871 paasuram. The second Prabandham of Thirumalisai Alvar is titled Naanmugan Thiruvandhadhi and it contains 96 verses. The work of Naanmugan Thiruvandhadhi starts from 2382 paasuram and ends at 2477 paasuram.
He has sung in praise of 20 temples.[7]

Toronto-Dominion, CIBC Profits Fall on Trading Fees
Toronto-Dominion Bank and Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, Canada's second- and fifth-largest banks by assets, reported lower fourth-quarter profits as trading income declined. Shares of both lenders fell.
Toronto-Dominion said net income for the period ended Oct. 31 dropped 1.6 percent to C$994 million ($908 million), or C$1.07 a share. CIBC's profit fell 22 percent to C$500 million, or C$1.17 a share. Before one-time items, Toronto-Dominion missed analyst estimates, while CIBC topped expectations.
Both Toronto-based lenders today reported lower investment- banking results, as trading and underwriting fees fell from a year ago when banks were rebounding from a recession. Toronto-Dominion's investment-banking profit was the lowest in two years, while CIBC had a loss from that business.
"The year-over-year comparisons would be very difficult in investment banking," said Douglas Davis, Chief Executive Officer of Davis-Rea Ltd., which manages about C$400 million including bank stocks. "Last year was a huge year as the banks were bailing themselves out along with everybody else, so there were just a huge number of deals being done."
Toronto-Dominion fell C$2, or 2.7 percent, to C$73.29 in 4 p.m. trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange, the biggest drop in about five months. CIBC fell C$1.74, or 2.2 percent, to C$79.31.
Higher Expenses
Before one-time items, Toronto-Dominion's profit was C$1.38 a share, missing the C$1.46-a-share average estimate of 16 analysts surveyed by Bloomberg News. CIBC said it earned C$1.68 a share excluding items, higher than the C$1.63-a-share average estimate of 14 analysts.
Toronto-Dominion missed estimates because of higher expenses, Chief Financial Officer Colleen Johnston said in an interview with Business News Network television. "As we go into 2011, we expect our rate of expense growth to slow down a little bit," she said.
Toronto-Dominion said non-interest expenses jumped 5.4 percent to C$3.26 billion because of higher rent and marketing. CIBC's non-interest expenses climbed 11 percent to C$1.86 billion due to advertising, professional fees and some severance costs.
Toronto-Dominion set aside C$404 million for loan-loss provisions, down 22 percent from a year earlier, although higher than the C$369 million estimate of RBC Capital Markets analyst Andre-Philippe Hardy. CIBC set aside C$150 million for bad loans, down 65 percent.
Consumer Banking
Profit at the Toronto-Dominion's investment-banking unit fell 74 percent to C$95 million in the quarter. Canadian consumer-banking profit climbed 24 percent to C$773 million on higher volumes in banking, financing and real estate lending.
"They focus very, very well on retail banking, and that's where the margins are," said Tony Demarin, chief investment officer of BCV Asset Management in Winnipeg, Manitoba, which manages about C$230 million, including Toronto-Dominion shares.
U.S. consumer-banking profit more than doubled to C$265 million. Chief Executive Officer Edmund Clark has said he expects the bank to earn $1.6 billion a year from its U.S. operations within three years. The bank now has more U.S. branches than it does in Canada.
"We've moved ourselves into a position where we have a sustainable position," in the U.S., Clark said in an October interview. "We now have a management team in place, enough presence to say 'okay, we've got a base where we can grow here'."
Trading Drops
For the full year, Toronto-Dominion earned C$4.64 billion, up from C$3.12 billion a year ago.
CIBC had total trading income of C$86 million in the quarter, down 76 percent from a year earlier. The bank also had a C$45 million reversal on credit loss provisions.
CIBC's profit was also reduced by C$239 million from losses tied mostly to the structured credit business that it's exiting, along with costs to return capital from foreign units.
Canadian Imperial was the hardest hit among the country's banks during the financial crisis, recording C$10.9 billion in debt-related writedowns since the collapse of the U.S. subprime market in 2007. The bank has been unwinding the debt-related securities that led to the charges.
Earnings from CIBC's consumer-lending business rose 23 percent to C$576 million, while its investment-banking business posted a loss of C$56 million, compared with C$160 million profit a year earlier.
For the full year, the bank earned C$2.45 billion, up from C$1.17 billion in 2009.
National Bank of Canada, based in Montreal, said Nov. 30 that profit beat estimates. Royal Bank of Canada, the country's largest lender, and Bank of Nova Scotia, the No. 3 bank, report tomorrow. Bank of Montreal, the fourth-biggest Canadian bank, reports results Dec. 7.
