Break rooms give employees a place to socialize and get away from their workspace for a little while. There are five basic types of break rooms that employers can offer. These types are not set in stone, so you can mix and match the combinations to design the best work space for your employees.
The smallest type of break room takes the form of a kitchenette and is rarely an actual room. A kitchenette can consist of a coffee maker and microwave on a corner counter or table. Larger kitchenettes will have a sink, a few other pieces of cooking equipment and a refrigerator and may be in a separate corner of the office. One thing is true of all kitchenettes; they do not have tables or chairs, and they only offer some of the simplest of amenities for office workers.
Lunch Room
This is the most common type of break room and is found in offices, factories and many other businesses. Lunch rooms have tables and chairs and several pieces kitchen equipment, like a refrigerator, toaster, coffee maker and microwave, and are used primarily for employees to eat lunch or get away from their work station for a few minutes. Larger lunch rooms may also have vending machines.
Game Room
Not all break rooms need to be for eating. Some are specifically designed to give employees a place to play during their break. Internet and technology companies are famous for providing arcade games, game tables, video game consoles and even climbing walls, so office workers can totally forget about work for a while and enjoy a few holes of Golden Tee (the arcade game).
Reading/Nap Room
Oftentimes, workers will eat their lunch, then go to their cars and take a brief 20-30 minute cat-nap to recharge. In fact, a NASA study on pilots found that napping for 26 minutes can maintain or improve alertness by up to 34%. One of the most important features of a nap room is privacy, so you will want to hang a time sheet so workers can schedule their time in the room. The nap room should also have comfortable furniture, an alarm clock (to signify when the session is over) and a door with a lock.
Stretching/Exercise Room
In most offices, there are usually at least one or two people that want to exercise during their lunch break, whether it be walking or going to the gym to do a few sets on the weight machine. You do not need to provide a fully decked-out gym on site (though some large corporations do), but having a separate room with exercise balls, yoga mats, a treadmill and exercise bike will give your active employees a place to go when the weather is not conducive to walking or driving to a gym.

Chalk artist Kurt Wenner gets to work
Published: Tuesday, November 1, 2011 at 5:32 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, November 1, 2011 at 5:32 p.m.
SARASOTA - Next to the barriers at the south end of Burns Court, chalk artist Kurt Wenner sat crosslegged on the pavement Tuesday surrounded by an array of colored chalks and paintbrushes and a semicircle of interested art students studying his techniques.
Q. How many artists are here, and where do they come from?
A. 250, from around the world. Lots of Italian being spoken.
Q. How did the Chalk Festival start?
A. In 2007, Avenida de Colores was a fundraiser for the Sarasota Film Festival, with about 20 artists and groups, including students from the Visual and Performing Arts program at Booker High School.
Q. Does chalk wash off in the rain?
A. Yes, eventually, but most of the artists aren't using normal chalkboard chalk. Their pastels are fortified with ingredients that make them more weather-impervious. Kurt Wenner, the headline artist at this year's festival, says rain actually softens and deepens the art.
Q. Can you walk on the chalk art?
A. Please don't.
Q. What streets will be closed?
A. Pineapple between Dolphin and Selby, and Dolphin between Pineapple and Orange, for the stage set for "Madame Butterfly."
The Sarasota Chalk Festival continues through Nov. 7 on Pineapple Avenue in downtown Sarasota, with some events at other locations. Street art free; classes and lectures $20/$10. www.chalkfestival.com.

At the north end of Burns Court, Michael Kirby and two assistants wrestled painted canvases to the street, weighting them down with paint cans and 2-by-4s. In the middle of Pineapple Avenue, artists marked off their sections of the pavement and began the work of transforming two blocks of asphalt into a riot of artwork.
The fourth annual Sarasota Chalk Festival got under way Tuesday under clear, sunny skies for a weeklong run that will peak this weekend with 250 artists and thousands of spectators converging on the Burns Court district of downtown Sarasota.
Wenner opened the festival with a demonstration and class for about a dozen artists. Beginning with a simple rendition of an orange butterfly against a blue background that he said most children would be able to do, he switched to a more elaborate portrait created from his imagination.
"Let's imagine now you're not a child and you want to paint for tips," said Wenner, acknowledging the street performance aspect of drawing on pavement.
Working with a stick of red chalk, he quickly sketched the contours of a man's face. Black chalk, lightly applied and then softened with a wash of cold coffee (water would do), added depth and detail. Crosshatching with more reds and yellows added highlights; damp and dry paintbrushes worked the pigments together.
Wenner, who is internationally known for his 3D creations of Renaissance-style works, regards his style of artwork as performance art, where his engagement with the audience is a key element — and not just to get cash in a tip jar.
"What we're trying to achieve is an experience and a relationship between artist and audience," he said.
But the artist's and audience's views are different.
"The audience view of the process is it's a beautiful thing and then it's destroyed," he said. "The artist's perspective is it just lasts a blink of an eye before it goes away. Impermanence is part of its artistic process. Between you and nature you get a picture that lasts a minute."
Two blocks up the street, Kirby, a theatrical set designer, was working against a stiff breeze to get seven 10-by-32-foot panels taped together and anchored to the street, where they will serve as an underfoot backdrop to three performances of scenes from the Sarasota Opera's production of "Madame Butterfly" on Sunday.
"We're trying to create something where the visual is equal to the musical," said Kirby, who has spent the past two months working on the set design that depicts opposite scenes from the Puccini opera. The first scene is all about love and creation; the second "is all about destruction and losing everything."
Tuesday he was trying not to lose everything to the wind. "When you work out in the street, it's not a controlled environment," he said philosophically.

Snowden: The NSA Has Seen You Naked
And if you're attractive, the agency may have passed the photo around.
Over the course of a seven-hour interview conducted with The Guardian in Moscow, Edward Snowden offered a glimpse into his life in Russia and said he's game for being chained up in military prison if that's what the future holds for him. The most interesting revelation Snowden disclosed, however, was about pervy NSA employees who he says routinely pass around naked picture of attractive people that they "stumble upon ... during the course of their daily work."
So what they do? They turn around in their chair and show their co-worker — and their co-workers says 'hey, that's great, send it to Bill down the way.' And then Bill sends to George, George sends it to Tom, and sooner or later this person's whole life has been seen by all of these other people.
"These are seen as sort of the fringe benefits of a surveillance position," he said.
Now that he's no longer in a position to look at naked photos all day, Snowden tells The Guardian he's spending his time developing encryption tools to protect sensitive communications between journalists and sources, among others who'd prefer their messages remain private. Though he'd like to come back to the U.S., Snowden admitted the unlikelihood of that happening. He said he fears an unfair trail that might land him in a place like Guantánamo Bay. Though, he said, "if I end up in chains in Guantanamo, I can live with that."

Edward II
Reckon our leaders are terrible? It seems they had nothing on Edward II. The 14th century English king screwed up his reign so monumentally that his wife raised an army against him and he was toppled by his own son. Opinions change, of course, and now his greatest flaw has become his most endearing quality; despite intense pressure, he refused to give up the man he loved, Piers Gaveston. Malthouse Theatre artistic director Matt Lutton had been fishing around for a queer play for a while, spurred by the fact that "you don't really see any plays about gay public figures. Most gay characters are either private individuals or Disney villains." Despite the implied outing of Jafar in this comment, Lutton has a point, citing Angels in America's Roy Cohn as the only theatrical depiction of a famous gay man he can think of. And in that play, he virtually is a Disney villain. Christopher Marlowe's 1592 version of Edward II has been radically reworked and updated by Lutton and playwright Anthony Weigh, stripping back the cast to five and focussing on "the lure and the destructive nature of individualism". The result sounds more like a domestic family drama than the historical epic we might have expected. Johnny Carr, who plays the ineffectual monarch, agrees. "The original Marlowe is quite convoluted, quite sprawling, whereas Anthony's take is really lean, really precise." The overt queer politics have been played down, too. Obvious parallels to gay marriage will no doubt simmer under

Apparently they think this will keep the working girls from peddling their wares.
In an effort to curb prostitution, Craigslist will be doing away with their "erotic services" section. Actually, not really — they're just going to rename it "adult services," which if anything will just make the prostitutes feel a bit more classy. And what hooker doesn't want to feel classy? Take off her thigh-high boots, give her a bubble bath, a wad of cash, and some upscale clothing, and there's nothing she can't do. [NYP]

Circumventing An Oil Crisis; This Time, Policy Makers Take a Hands-Off Approach
Published: October 4, 2000
(Page 2 of 2)
Price controls, instituted in 1971 by President Richard M. Nixon to curb inflation and maintained on the oil industry well after they were abandoned in other sectors of the economy, ''were one of the most anomalous episodes in American history,'' said Eliot R. Cutler, who served for a time as energy czar under President Jimmy Carter. ''Here you had this Republican free-market president imposing and maintaining the most elaborate set of price controls Americans had had in any time other than war.''
Eventually, he said, the poor results ''were viewed as evidence that the free market was a much more efficient mechanism compared to a bunch of government bureaucrats.''
The lessons learned during the 1970's had a profound effect on political leaders in both parties, said Daniel Yergin, the chairman of Cambridge Energy Research Associates and author of a Pulitzer Prize-winning history of the oil industry. That was particularly true among those who had always preferred a strong government regulatory role.
''For many Democrats, the shift to a more market-oriented view of the world began with their experience with energy price controls,'' he said. ''That was a major turning point.''
As the 1970's began, almost no one in Washington realized just how precarious the nation's oil supply had become. While the nation had imported oil for many years, by far the bulk was produced domestically. The government maintained quotas on imports that had long served to protect politically powerful American producers by limiting cheaper and more plentiful foreign oil. Those were not lifted until early 1973.
But domestic oil production had leveled off in 1970 while demand continued to soar, giving Mideast producers drastic new leverage over the United States. That was made clear in October 1973, when, as the Yom Kippur War began, Saudi Arabia and other Arab nations angrily reacted to President Nixon's military aid for Israel by halting shipments of oil to the United States.
Within weeks, prices for gasoline and heating rose sharply, even with the price controls, as refiners were allowed to pass through the increase in crude oil costs. Some schools shut down to conserve energy; gasoline lines left drivers waiting for hours; and gasoline pedaled under the table in some cases sold for over $1 a gallon.
The price controls and allocations were linked to past profits and consumption. Retailers were supposed to make the same profit margins they previously earned, for example, while doing nothing more than passing on increases in wholesale gasoline costs. And allocations were pegged to prior petroleum sales.
Late in his term, President Carter began the process of lifting the controls, but they were not abolished completely until President Ronald Reagan took action in 1981.
''Part of the reason we haven't had gas lines this year is that there has been no serious exogenous shock to the system like we had in the 1970's,'' said Vahan Zanoyan, president of the Petroleum Finance Company, a Washington consulting firm. But an equally important reason now, he added, ''is that we're letting the market decide the prices.''
This year, Mr. Yergin said, the nation experienced a glimmer of the panic seen in the 1970's when prices soared above $2 a gallon in the Midwest. But within a month of prices reaching their peak, the Midwest had the cheapest gasoline in the nation. Suppliers, free to shift gasoline and oil from other parts of the country and eager to cash in on the huge profits refiners were making, flooded the region with fuel, constrained only by transportation needs.
''So often, when you get into really tight markets, what's really critical is logistics,'' Mr. Yergin said. In the past, price controls and allocation measures ''actually did as much as anything to create gas lines by preventing the market from moving supplies around to where demand was a real crisis.''
Those controls did not really hurt oil industry profits, however, and by January 1974, the major integrated companies began reporting income gains of 50 percent or more. In Washington, Senator Henry M. Jackson, the Washington Democrat, paraded executives from the nation's seven major oil companies before his Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, grilling them on television about their role in the crisis.
But profits were not the only thing that made the industry an easy target. Compared with today, the industry was a mystery, with far less data publicly available and no worldwide marketplace that reported crude oil prices. Oil producers would simply post prices, and there was essentially no spot market for crude.
''Everyone was calling for price-fixing cases,'' Mr. Cutler said, ''but there was no evidence of a mass conspiracy.''
There were some settlements in the many millions of dollars for violations of price controls and allocation rules, and some states won other settlements from oil producers. But the Justice Department in 1983 ended a six-year antitrust inquiry into the four major oil companies operating in Saudi Arabia because regulators failed to uncover ''any remediable violations of the antitrust laws.'' Two years earlier, the Federal Trade Commission had abandoned a case that had sought to break up the nation's major oil companies on the ground that they had engaged in collusive behavior.
The pricing power earlier enjoyed by the major oil companies, known as the Seven Sisters, began to disintegrate once OPEC began flexing its muscles and demanding higher prices for its crude. Britain sold huge quantities of oil drilled from new fields in the North Sea, further decoupling oil from the old ''posted prices'' system.
And by the early 1980's, producers, distributors and refiners could trade futures contracts that gave them the right to sell or buy crude, heating oil and gasoline at a set price later on.
''The introduction of these commodity markets changed the whole behavior of the business,'' Mr. Verleger, a former Treasury Department energy adviser, said. Today, the world consumes about 75 million barrels of oil daily, but as much as a half-billion barrels are traded on some days, estimates Mr. Verleger, who is now at Brattle Group, a consulting firm in Cambridge, Mass.
The current structure of the market still allows for collusive practices; the whole purpose of OPEC is to control supply and, as a result, prices. In the United States, the F.T.C. is investigating complaints by Mr. Gore and other politicians that refiners this summer may have fixed prices in the Midwest -- accusations the industry has hotly denied.
But while the market responds far more quickly today to match supply with demand, another major structural change in the industry may not turn out so well for consumers, Mr. Verleger said. Major oil companies have steadily been selling refineries to independent operators for a fraction of their replacement cost, leaving these smaller companies, with their higher credit costs and smaller capital budgets, to produce a greater share of the nation's gasoline, jet fuel, heating oil and other products.
These smaller companies, he said, are more likely to keep low inventories of oil and run their plants full blast only when profits on refining are attractive -- factors that played a role in the low inventories of refined products this year. Moreover, if the United States faces a refining capacity shortage later this decade for new varieties of clean-burning fuels, these companies may be less prepared to deal with it.
The refining market today ''is at once both more competitive for petroleum products,'' Mr. Verleger said, ''and much less financially secure.''

Westone 4R with Removable Cables
" Preamble: Westone doesn't need any further introduction – it is one of the major brands and international big players.

Westone 4 True-Fit Earphones
"I bought these as an upgrade from the W3, which while extremely fun, I soon became disappointed in, due to mid bass bleed into the midrange.

"Intro: I must say the UM2 sounds better than the UM3x which I sold shortly after few months. In short; it sounds more articulate,airy and more expansive.

I suffer from various health issues , my immune system is not the best also Im vegan so this was fantastic along with other vitamins with this brand only .You must take it daily not once and a while AND it's not at all harsh on the stomach.

Amazing Raw Womens Multi
Posted by 5291365967689154749 on Jun 21, 2013
As a natural therapist I highly recommend garden of Life Multi for the extensive range of its raw, organic, ingredients in veggie caps. My mother is benefiting from receiving all the Dr prescribed D3 in this tablet along with the bonus of a balanced natural multi vitamin tablet. It includes all the A,B & D vitamins needed by women in todays world, along with K, E and minerals. Probiotics and enzymes complete the blend with molybdenum & Arnia Berry. It is a complete multi vitamin which contains a raw, organic, balanced blend. Thank you Garden of Life for this amazing product!
good product. Click on my username for more reviews!
Posted by More-Special-Offers on Jul 30, 2013
I've been taking this vitamins for about a week, sometimes on empty stomach, sometimes with meals, both good. Feels like they help with food digesting, probably because of the enzymes. First 3 days felt a little nauseaous for about 10-15 minutes, but now it's ok. Not entirely happy that they contain yeast, but it seems all GOL vitamins have it. Anyway haven't noticed anything bad so far. So will continue to use. Please feel free to click "yes" if you find my review helpful for you. Best wishes

Posted by danielledonohue on Jun 19, 2012
I notice such a difference from when I am taking these, to when I am not taking them. I have barely been sick since I started taking these. If I forget them for a few days, I notice a difference. If I start feeling sick, I especially make sure to take them, and I seem to fight it off really quickly. I love that it is all natural and raw, and I only have to take it once a day. I supplement it with the Raw B vitamins for extra B as well. LOVE this brand!

What is your website so I can take a look.
And, you should be able to just uninstall the plugin without using the uninstall script. If not, I've removed the uninstall script in the next version.
Hi Austin,
Thanks for your reply. It is already working now. The problem was with WP_Minify, Minify plugin was killing all my Javascript plugins. Thanks for your work :)

2008 "Hurricanes happen."
posted by September 1 at 8:23 AMon
Hey, that's Tucker Carlson. (He's on the right.) Carlson thinks George W. Bush should be here at the RNC, not hunkered down in Texas "monitoring the situation" and pretending that he's somehow responsible for the weather. I asked Carlson if he thought RNC delegates should at least get a fly-over from the president. You know, something like Bush did for the Gulf Coast after Katrina…
Even if George W. Bush can't come to the RNC, surely he could fly in low over Minneapolis, peer wistfully out the window of Air Force One, and survey the wreckage he's left behind?
Carlson agreed.

Campus Food:
I wish there was more diversity in the food
Campus Food:
They could do a much better job of mixing things up
Campus Food:
Most of the time, the dining halls can leave a lot to be desired. Sometimes, they surprise us and the food is pretty good. The food options around Harvard can tend to be a little pricey for a college student's budget...we're not all heirs to an enormous fortune.
Campus Food:
The food in Annenberg is alright, but it's great to be able to eat with friends. Upperclassmen dining halls have somewhat better food.
Campus Food:
HUDS is far from quality dining. Food from the freshmen dining hall, Annenburg, is especially lacking, most likely due to its mass-production in relation to the smaller house dining halls. They do try and vary the options, as well as change them up from season to season, but the food is generally bland and either under or overcooked. There also isn't a great variety of vegetarian/vegan options, especially if one can't eat soy.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
Opinions on the quality of campus dining at Harvard run the gamut from total disgust to lavish praise. In general, students admire the beautiful architecture of Annenberg and most of the house dining facilities, but many students don't believe the ambience of the dining halls makes up for the less-than-stellar cuisine served up by Harvard University Dining Services (HUDS).
However, students can use their Crimson Cash at a select number of restaurants in Harvard Square, making Harvard's dining opportunities appear a bit brighter. Most of the complaints about food quality come from first-year students who are victims of Annenberg, where food is mass-produced to serve more than 1,600 freshmen. Upperclassmen note that food quality does improve after freshman year, however.

Re: Will I get approved?
This is part auto loan and part rebuild w/ BK, so it's pretty in depth.
I can tell you the collections won't make a difference paid or not. I would make a separate thread entirely in the "Rebuilding" section of the forums to deal with those. It should be your goal to get those deleted. Those are weighing your scores down in a big way. Make that thread and you'll get plenty of good advice to go about validating the debt, then dealing with it from there. I would deal with those first before you get down to car shopping, they could make a huge difference in rates.
As for the Passat...can you verify that lease/loan was included in your BK? I wouldn't do anything a frontline CSR told me if it involved not paying a loan my name was on. Better look into that all the way, and even then make sure you get it all in writing.
Low 600's is not impossible to get financing, DTI and down payment would be important. Others I'm sure can get you more specifics. I'm still hoping for some info on my approval thread too, lol.

On behalf of the EANS Board of Officers and the EANS 2016 Organising Committee we invite you to join us for EANS 2016, the 16th European Congress of Neurosurgery, in Athens, Greece, from 4th - 8th September 2016.
Our selected meeting theme is "Neurosurgery: from the Classics to the future". Exploring the past, present and future of our specialty, the 2016 European Congress will take an in-depth look at how far we have come, where we are now and what may lie ahead. The Scientific PROGRAMME will cover the whole neurosurgical spectrum and will be put together by the Organising Committee with the input of the EANS specialist Section Chairmen. The MEGARON (Athens International Conference Centre) provides an ideal venue for the Congress in the center of Athens, with many hotels, restaurants and museums in walking distance.
EANS2016 provides an ideal opportunity to reconnect and share knowledge with colleagues and friends, whilst enhancing your skill set, helping your practice, and improving patient care. We look forward to seeing you in Athens.

A growing number of fellowship and observership opportunities are also available to our members, along with a comprehensive online library of neurosurgical material via the EANS Academy.
The strategic direction of the EANS is determined largely by its Board of officers. This body is elected every two years and consists of full time practising neurosurgeons who take on their unpaid roles for the benefit of European neurosurgery. The current board consists of:

Framed by the spectacular landscape of the Aegean sea and surrounding mountains, Athens is a tourist's delight with famous landmarks and hidden gems alike waiting to be discovered. Its position at the crossroads of three continents has been a significant factor in the development of the city's extraordinary cultural heritage.
Greece's capital is an ideal congress destination, combining state-of-the-art infrastructure, excellent conference facilities and easy worldwide access with unrivalled cultural attractions, modern amenities, diverse entertainment and natural beauty. Many hotels in Athens underwent extensive renovation prior to the 2004 Olympic Games, enabling visitors to benefit from comfortable and stylish accommodation combined with outstanding services.
Athens is connected to the International Airport, some 35 km from the city center, via a public transport that operates round the clock, including the metro, the suburban rail and various bus services. The cost of a taxi from the airport to the city centre is a very reasonable €20 - €30.
A state-of-the-art metro system, wide avenues, an efficient public transportation system and a compact city center make moving around Athens easy and convenient. The Athens transportation network includes new buses, pollution-free trolleys, tram and a revamped electric railway system that connects two metro lines.
Athens is an ideal year-round destination with comfortable and favourable climate conditions for travel and sightseeing. Rainfall is minimal which leads to hot and dry summers. The Mediterranean climate makes for mild winters and even milder autumns in low-lying areas, with the coldest temperatures reported in January at a very temperate of 5°C to 13°C.
The Megaron Athens International Conference Centre is one of the finest and most technologically advanced conference venues in Europe. Situated in the city centre yet surrounded by its own extensive landscaped gardens, the Megaron offers a stunning environment, exceptional aesthetics and cutting edge technology.
The venue provides a variety of different auditoria with capacities ranging from 380 to 2,000 pax and smaller conference rooms accommodating 20 to 180 pax as well as a wide exhibition space with natural daylight.

I'm interested in knowing whether there is a condition for general measure spaces under which we know that we can only achieve the strict inequality of Fatou's lemma. I am working in the situation that $f_n \rightarrow f$, and the limit of the integrals do exist so that Fatou's lemma says $$ \int f \leq \lim_{n \rightarrow \infty} \int f_n \;. $$ Is there a condition on $f_n$ and $f$ which ensures $$ \int f < \lim_{n \rightarrow \infty} \int f_n \;. $$
There is a nice discussion of this point in ANALYSIS by Lieb & Loss (section 1.9 of the second edition): It $f_n$ are non-negative and converge a.e. to $f$, then $$ \liminf_n\int f_n = \int f +\liminf_n\int|f-f_n| $$ provided $\sup_n\int f_n<\infty$.

Trayvon Unrest Prompts Plea For Calm in L.A.
File photo by Rachel McLeod Kaminer / Flickr
See also: Vandalism, Assault During 3rd Night of Trayvon Protests in L.A.
City officials continued to urge calm in the wake of a third night of protests and minor unrest following the George Zimmerman not guilty verdict in Florida.
Mayor Eric Garcetti and LAPD Chief Charlie Beck planned a 2 p.m. press conference regarding the demonstrations:
Last night both the mayor and the top cop took to Twitter to ask folks to mellow out: LAPD Lt. Andy Neiman actually told parents to "text" their teens and tell them to get off the streets.
Beck said this last night:

We were sorely disappointed by the actions of about 150 individuals who decided to break away from the peaceful protest ...

LAPD Officer Bruce Borihahn told us there were 14 arrests last night during unrest along Crenshaw Boulevard: 13 for alleged failure to disperse and 1 for suspicion of inciting a riot.
The L.A. Fire Department didn't have specific data on injuries but spokesman Brian Humphrey acknowledged this attack on KCAL / CBS Los Angeles reporter Dave Bryan and a camera operator, saying the victims sustained minor injuries.
During the night's festivities demonstrators stormed a Walmart at Baldwin Hills Crenshaw Plaza and appeared to assault one or two people outside a gas station at Crenshaw and Slauson Avenue.

Indeed, wearing two layers of jeans is a comfortable, solid solution for chilly days – in this case indigo denim jeans by PAUL SMITH worn over ACNE washed denim jeans. The denim shoes are ALL STARS by CONVERSE, of course, worn with navy wool socks by FALKE.

Football South chairman Dougal McGowan said Queenstown
businessman Sir Eion Edgar would give $5000 to the 2015 trust
annually for the next three years.
Up to $10,000 was left in a 1999 Fifa Under-17 World Cup
trust that could be transferred to the 2015 Under-20 bid.
A potential bid of $125,000, to be paid over the next three
years to Fifa, would be enough for Dunedin to make a bid, Mr
McGowan said.
The bid would be for five or six games and that could include
a quarterfinal.
''If we can get six games down here, it could be a group that
has England or Argentina, one of those great big playing
Some of the funding was waiting to be signed off by the board
but it was already ''on the way'' to becoming a competitive
''[In] the best-case scenario, I could have $70,000 in the
bank as we sit here speaking.''
He had arranged a meeting tomorrow to find ways that Otago
businesses could contribute to the trust. The stadium and the
Dunedin City Council were working hard to make the event
happen, he said.
''Now, it's my job is to try and come up with the finance.''
Dunedin Mayor Dave Cull said discussions were continuing
between Fifa and various stakeholders in Dunedin, including
the council, but the talks were confidential and ongoing.
The possibility of the community funding a bid had been
discussed with Fifa, he said.
''We couldn't justify expenditure of ratepayer funding of the
quantum that was indicated but that doesn't mean it couldn't
be found from other sources.''

I am Student of M.A. Philosophy in University of Pune. Recently, I found Linux, and came to know more about that. Finally after a lot of goggling, I found Ubuntu and Fedora, as two type of Linux that I like. Now I am searching to know more about Ubuntu..
And now, I found Linux Mint, which I love and I am using of it. I am very comfortable with that.
Maybe in future, I will go to figure out Arch Linux which is still strange to me ..

"I wanted the card that said Joy & Cheer, but could only make New Year Cheer come up. That was fine and we love the card."
"The combination of the black card with Tiny Prints' text, paper, and edge recommendations added to the elegance of this card. Kept it simple with 1 photo on the front, and 1 small photo on the back, as to not overshadow the beautiful card design. Extremely pleased with the quality, design, and customization."
"-Layout worked well for our picture (elongated) -Customized the font type at the base of the photo with our family name -Used rounded corners, which added a really nice touch -Snowflake detail was sweet and did not overwhelm the picture -Felt quality was basically in line with the cards we also ordered from Minted. This was a good value for the price."
"This year I chose an OLD photograph taken at our wedding 38 years ago. The card I selected was perfect for the photo, which itself was not that sharp an image. For the first time I got a lot of responses back complimenting the card. It was a big success."
"I have used tinyprints for the past several years now and couldn't be happier. The print quality and paper is perfect and color as shown. Its a great size and I love that you can put a few pictures on the back as well. Got many compliments on this years card! Would definitely purchase again. I also want to say I called customer service because I forgot to put in a free shipping code and they were absolutely wonderful. Product came very quickly too!"

Office Blinds, Window Treatments
- Prevent reflection, glare and shadows
- Maintain temperature with insulating shades
- Light controlling blinds for a productive space
- Functional and decorative treatments
- Motorized lift options
There are a variety of office blinds and shades conducive to creating a comfortable and productive office space, whether at home or in a high rise. Shutters and wood blinds are classic office window treatment options that work well to let in natural light, but also have slats that may be tilted for optimum light control. Solar screens reduce incoming glare while maintaining the view to the outside and cellular shades provide privacy while allowing light to filter in or be blocked out, depending on the selected opacity.

"Great blinds at a great price"
By CJCBlinds from Seattle
We went to several local shops and checked out several online blind stores and chose Blinds Galore. The service was great.View this product
By sandking from Harlingen TX
We have 4 nine foot tall doors with windows and had not covered them because we were afraid the look of them would be ruined. However we could not see oun TV because of the glare. Botton line the Bali's improved the look of the doors!View this product
