Low tech construction - the frame is stamped metal, the allens and such are on friction pivots, not snap action like a pocket knife, and the bridge pin puller will bend in use on those stubborn pins where you really need it. Frustratingly, I had to use another set of pliers to straighten the puller because the puller is attached to this thing, and anyway the tips are not really pliers. I'm going to try the Dunlop pin puller and see if it is better.The cutters work fine so far (one restringing on my acoustic bass)with no signs of nicking on the hardened insert cutting edges. They will probably last years of hobbyist use.It has two screwdriver blades, but you'll probably use real screwdrivers anyway. The tips should have actually been pliers instead of pointy metal with unknown purpose. It should have included a simple string winder. It should have folded into a useful screwdriver handle like a Leatherman or similar.But in the end, I have not found many guitarist multi-tools, and just being decent cutters with a pin puller that might last a few uses will probably be enough to keep this in my case. Hardly a glowing rating, but I'm keeping mine.

I got this free with my guitar case several years ago. None of the hex keys fit ANY of my guitars truss rod or saddles. Input jack wrench doesn't even fit an input jack nut. And the philips and flathead screwdrivers are awkward to use. The only thing this thing does at all for me is cut strings, and it does that extremely poorly. The cutter should have been at the edge cause it leaves a lot more left over slack on the string that can catch things, stab you, etc. You're better off using a regular string cutter, heck my leatherman multi tool is a better guitar tool then this thing it has pliers, a file, better screwdrivers, and a bottle opener (for that cold one after stringing up a guitar). Cost me about the same too. Save your money, buy a wire cutter and hex key set and you'll have something already 10x better then this thing for half the price.

Comments about JP Tools Guitar Tool:
I bought this so that I can work on my Taylor Expression System, thinking that the U-shaped tool would remove the ferrules. Unfortunately, the tool was too small. However, the clamp end on the front fit perfectly and I was able to successfully remove the circuit card. Victory. Nice tool to have.

Comments about JP Tools Guitar Tool:
I bought it expecting to get all adjustments being done with one tool but the cutting blades broke after two string changes. using the allen wrenches is difficult because you have to turn the whole tool and can scratch the instrument.
I contacted customer support to get a replacement for the broken cutting blades and never got an answer. My best advice is: Buy regular tools, they are cheaper and useful.
Comments about JP Tools Guitar Tool:
Perfect for carring in my guitar case!
Has every thing you need for changing my strings in a hurry!
The JP Guitar tool is the best guitar tool on the market I have found! Hands down!
Comments about JP Tools Guitar Tool:
the overall features are useful, but the cutting blades notched out after 2 string changes. It is already difficult to cut strings now, I don't expect it to be useable after a few more changes.
Comments about JP Tools Guitar Tool:
I used to use all kinds of separate tools to do everything this baby does all in one tool! No more looking around for separate tools again everything you will ever need is at your disposal. I LOVE JP GUITAR TOOL! Come see the JP Guitar Tool in action at winter NAMM 2012!
Comments about JP Tools Guitar Tool:
Is an expensive product , I bought it three months ago mainly because of the string cutting feature and today one blade is loose after the second string set change. the cutting blades are glued to the body of the tool. total disappointment
Comments about JP Tools Guitar Tool:
I use this tool when changing strings and setting up my guitar. I love the tool. It does what it supposed to do and it does it extremely well. I have one in my gig bag and another in my kitchen drawer for those times when you need a screwdriver or wire cutter and don't want to walk out to the garage. The tool is compact, durable, and easy to use. It fits nicely in my hand. I love it! Like I said, I own two.
Comments about JP Tools Guitar Tool:
This is by far the best Tool on the Market! I'm a pro player and guitar teacher, and this tool has it all! Very easy to use and so compact! I know a lot of guitar techs who use this tool! I highly recommend this guitar tool! don't go to a gig without one!!
Comments about JP Tools Guitar Tool:
Farley's Deluxe Guitar Tool is a great little multi tool for bass and guitar. I am a "semi-pro" musician and tinker with guitar set up at home. The Tool is well made. Made of metal. it is pretty tough. I have had other tool that had plastic casings that over time broke due to wear and stress. No worries with Farley's Deluxe Guitar Tool. The design is classic and easy to use.The allen wrenches fit my Ibanez Tremolo, my Jackson's Floyd Rose, my Spector and fender basses. The pin puller seems thin, but it works. It also contains a philips head and slotted screwdriver. The string cutters work for both guitars and basses. It could use a string winder and it would be absolutely perfect.I like the fact that you can just keep it in your case or it comes with a nylon pouch that you can loop through your belt to keep it close. For a tool made in the USA, made of good metal--- not pot metal---has a cutter and wrenches, I say it it is well worth the price.
Comments about JP Tools Guitar Tool:
Farley's Deluxe Guitar Tool is the handiest tool ever devised for guitarists - a real jewel for changing strings. I was given one as a gift and now own four. I have one in each guitar case and keep one handy in my recording studio so I am never caught without. So much better than carrying a clunky collection of wrenches, screwdrivers and cutters. I love this tool!

(AP) BERLIN - Negotiators from the parties expected to form Germany's next government are vowing to push forward slow-moving plans to introduce a European tax on financial transactions.
Chancellor Angela Merkel's conservatives are in talks with the center-left Social Democrats on a new coalition. The conservatives won September elections but their pro-business coalition partners of the past four years were voted out of Parliament.
Germany and 10 other European nations want to introduce the transaction tax but progress has been slow. While in opposition, the Social Democrats accused Merkel of doing too little to advance it.
European Parliament President Martin Schulz, a Social Democrat, said Wednesday both parties agree they "absolutely" want to press for the tax. Conservative Herbert Reul said they want to bridge differences on Europe's planned banking union by mid-November.

Radioshack team rider Lance Armstrong of the U.S. poses on the podium in Paris after the final 20th stage of the 97th Tour de France cycling race between Longjumeau and Paris in this July 25, 2010 file photo. Armstrong, the disgraced American cyclist at the center of the biggest doping scandal in the sport's history, may admit he used performance-enhancing drugs during his career, the New York Times reported in editions on January 5, 2013, citing ''several people with direct knowledge of the situation.'' The newspaper said Armstrong, 41, has told associates and anti-doping officials he may make the admission in hopes of persuading anti-doping officials to allow him to resume competition in athletic events that adhere to the World Anti-Doping Code, under which Armstrong is currently subject to a lifetime ban.

Red Cross
BREVARD -- The Transylvania Chapter of the American Red Cross received a special honor Oct. 4 when Sergeant First Class Don Musser presented to the chapter an American flag flown in Iraq.
Sergeant First Class Musser was a Drill Sergeant with the 1/518th 108th Division. He was deployed to Iraq for 14 months in the Diyala Province. He and his family reside in Pisgah Forest. His wife, Sharon, is a Transylvania County Red Cross volunteer. Don was the link in Iraq who assured the boxes went to those in need. Sharon, her family and local volunteers were responsible for sending 700 "goodie boxes" to military members in Iraq over the year. The "goodies" and the money to ship the boxes came from donations from Transylvania County residents. A large number of boxes were donated, packed and shipped by residents of the Outdoor Resorts of America in Lake Toxaway under the leadership of Bess Ann Brown.
The accompanying plaque certifies that the flag was flown for two hours over the Headquarters for the Multinational Forces in Iraq on July 4, 2007 in honor of the Transylvania Chapter of the American Red Cross for its support of Operation Iraqi Freedom.
The certificate was signed by the Commanding Officer, Lieutenant General Raymond T. Odierno who reports to General Patraeus, the head of the American Forces in the Middle East.
Fifth Grade Cubcat Leaders
The fifth grade Cubcat Leaders at Hendersonville Elementary School worked to raise funds for a Hands On! Children's Museum. After touring Hands On, the Cubcat Leaders began a two week fundraiser throughout their school selling hand prints for $1, to "give a hand" to the new children's museum. The school leaders' enthusiasm was contagious, as the group raised over $1,600 for Hands On.
"The Cubcat Leaders worked enthusiastically, arriving at school early each day to help with the fundraiser. They sold over 1,600 hand prints, keeping track of each one with the purchaser's name and homeroom teacher. Students understood how their efforts benefit this wonderful new resource in Henderson County. After visiting Hands On!, they appreciated the experience it offers to children and families. This gives them a sense of achievement to take part in helping Hands On!," said Lynn Bentley, the school counselor and Cubcat Leader sponsor.
Thermal Belt Outreach
TRYON -- Cookies, cakes, pies, breads and pancakes flew off the shelves around the county in support of Thermal Belt Outreach Warm Heart's bake sales. Sales were held in Sunny View, at the Mountain View BBQ Benefit Breakfast, the Tryon Stroll and Columbus Christmas Parade. Donations were also received for 64 Christmas gifts donated by regional merchants.
The combined efforts of Outreach board members, Outreach staff, volunteers, merchants and help from the Tryon Methodist, Tryon Congregational, Green Creek Baptist, Silver Creek Baptist and Cooper's Gap Baptist Churches "Warm Hearts" raised more than $5,000. Eligible families in need of emergency assistance with heating bills this winter will find help through the community effort.
Thermal Belt Outreach
The Hendersonville Salvation Army delivered 363 Christmas boxes brimming with food and frozen turkeys to the Thermal Belt Outreach Food Pantry. As soon as the truck was unloaded, participating organizations and pre-approved families came to pick up their Christmas food boxes.
"Christmas Cheer" spread to the 4-H Youth Center, where children lined up to visit with Mrs. Claus, played convincingly by Outreach Executive Director, Eloise Thwing. Santa was able to be on hand for a good part of the afternoon. 161 children visited with Santa and Mrs. Claus. Each child received a candy cane and a gift. Families picked up their angel tree gifts during this time, too.
An elderly couple wrote, "Thank you for the very nice food basket we received. Also, we thank you for the Christmas gifts and the beautiful afghan that was in the bag. It is all very much appreciated. Everyone was so good and courteous."
The Outreach Angel Tree program is in its eighth year. This program, administered by Outreach, distributed 541 gifts from generous people in the community to children and the elderly whose Christmas might otherwise be without cheer.
The Christmas dinner program is funded with Salvation Army donations specified for Polk County.
"This is one more example of how Outreach works with all aspects of Polk County to provide the structure and opportunity for a compassionate community," said Eloise Thwing. "We are honored to partner with so many fine organizations and individuals in Polk County. A caring and loving community is such a gift for all of us."
Pardee Hospital
Pardee Hospital presented Shooting Star Awards in December to Melissa Gelineau, RN, Day Surgery; Pam Guy, Materials Management; and Mary Ann Morgan, RN, Day Surgery.
The Shooting Star Award recognizes Pardee associates who consistently go above and beyond in their jobs and serve as role models to their fellow associates. Winners are nominated by their co-workers to receive the award.
According to her co-workers, Gelineau always has a positive attitude and is willing to go above and beyond the call of duty. She is diplomatic in her communication and leadership skills, and serves as a role model for her peers.
Guy's cheerful attitude and willingness to help has helped improve customer service in the Materials Management Department. Co-workers say she goes above and beyond everyday by filling orders as soon as possible, and coming in early when needed.
Morgan has a great attitude, and is always positive and encouraging, according to her peers. She shows all of her patients how much she truly cares about them in the way she treats them. Morgan is a member of the Nursing Recruitment and Retention Committee.

Hi! I have a few questions...
1. I have an enormous blank space underneath my Meteor slideshow. I think the problem has to do with the slideshow (and not some other coding), but can't figure out how to get rid of it.
2. I want to virtually have no slide duration (so that it looks like the slides are in motion; see website below). How to I make the duration less than 1? And exactly where do I put the code?
3. Someone else asked this (sorry, I'm new to this). I don't want the slideshow to pause when the mouse hovers over it. I also want to remove the slide title when I have my cursor over it. What code goes where?
Thanks a million! I love this plug-in!

|The 8th Habit: From Effectiveness to Greatness
The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, first published in 1989, is a business and self-help book written by Stephen R. Covey.[1] Covey presents an approach to being effective in attaining goals by aligning oneself to what he calls "true north" principles of a character ethic that he presents as universal and timeless.
Covey's best-known book has sold more than 25 million copies worldwide since its first publication in 1989. The audio version became the first non-fiction audio-book in U.S. publishing history to sell more than one million copies.[2] Covey argues against what he calls "The Personality Ethic", something he sees as prevalent in many modern self-help books. He promotes what he labels "The Character Ethic": aligning one's values with so-called "universal and timeless" principles. Covey adamantly refuses to conflate principles and values; he sees principles as external natural laws, while values remain internal and subjective. Covey proclaims that values govern people's behavior, but principles ultimately determine the consequences. Covey presents his teachings in a series of habits, manifesting as a progression from dependence via independence to interdependence.
The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People has sold more than 25 million copies in 40 languages worldwide, and the audio version has sold 1.5 million copies, and remains one of the best selling nonfiction business books. In August 2011 Time listed 7 Habits as one of "The 25 Most Influential Business Management Books".[3]
U.S. President Bill Clinton invited Covey to Camp David to counsel him on how to integrate the book into his presidency.[4]
Abundance Mentality[edit]
Covey coined the idea of abundance mentality or abundance mindset, a concept in which a person believes there are enough resources and successes to share with others. He contrasts it with the scarcity mindset (i.e., destructive and unnecessary competition), which is founded on the idea that, if someone else wins or is successful in a situation, that means you lose; not considering the possibility of all parties winning (in some way or another) in a given situation (see zero-sum game). Individuals with an abundance mentality reject the notion of zero-sum games and are able to celebrate the success of others rather than feel threatened by it.[5]
Since this book's publishing, a number of books appearing in the business press have discussed the idea.[6] Covey contends that the abundance mentality arises from having a high self-worth and security (see Habits 1, 2, and 3), and leads to the sharing of profits, recognition and responsibility.[7] Organizations may also apply an abundance mentality when doing business.[8]
Sean Covey (Stephen's son) has written a version of the book for teens, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens. This version simplifies the 7 Habits for younger readers so they can better understand them. In September 2006, Sean Covey also published The 6 Most Important Decisions You Will Ever Make: A Guide for Teens. This guide highlights key times in the life of a teen and gives advice on how to deal with them.

OP...with all due respect, please get over yourself. Believe it or not, there are actual medical reasons to need a c-section.....be it early or not. And the majority of us that are having them really are not too excited about it. So thanks for your support!
Good luck to you in your natural delivery.
Mommy to Daniel 01/09/06
and Nora 03/05/10
I dont need to tell you why i am having a c-section because it is really my business,my baby and not yours.I call this another bullshit post because i have been on here since 2004(offficially joined in 2009)and not for once have i come across a post from women talking about early c-section of 3 to 4 weeks when the baby is not even fullterm yet because, they are sick of pregnancy.Laboring for hours,medical conditions among others are the reasons for c-section.Goodluck to you!!!!!!!!!!!
Your the change you see.Make changes where necessary and stop blaming others for your misery.Enough said but only the wise one sees the road ahead.T.
Posts like this make me a little irritated as it does to many others as well. C-sections are hard, natural labor is hard, medicated labor is hard...but to moms of previous c-sections chances are we labored first not all but most and therefore resulted in a c-section. I cant speak for all but I can speak for myself when I had my first c-section I felt like a failure after pushing for so long and not being able to have the baby vaginally. Posts like these make me feel like a failure again for choosing a repeat c-section for the health of my baby and myself. Please get off your high horse. That is all :)
Michelle DF to Nathan Mommy to Big Brother Connor 8.10.06 and Ryan came early on February 19th 2010 6lbs 14oz 19.5 inches 6:31 pm.
Huh...interesting that not ONE post was from anyone having a c-section at 3-4 weeks for convenience....

Car chase ends with arrest in Bernalillo County
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — Authorities say a high-speed chase involving deputies in Bernalillo County resulted in a series of car crashes but without serious injuries.
Sheriff's Department spokesman Aaron Williamson says deputies noticed Adrein Roybal [auth] driving recklessly around 5 p.m. Saturday.
Williamson says Roybal fled from an attempted traffic stop and a deputy pursuing him became involved in a crash with another motorist.
He says a back-up unit on its way to assist then got into a minor crash.
A secondary deputy was in pursuit when Roybal lost control and hit a utility pole.
Williamson says Roybal was arrested but a female passenger was hospitalized for complaints of injuries.
Three children in the vehicle were treated and released at the scene.
Roybal is wanted on parole violations and is now facing aggravated fleeing charges.

Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: All-Sex
New girls and teens.
New girls are like risky stocks. Their performance records are untested, but when the winners hit, the payoff is big. The male performers in this flick are all highly skilled veterans and do a fine job of working over these teen dreams. But for the most part, the sex is cold and calculated.
The biggest payoff occurs in the first scene. Holly Wellin is an all-natural big-titted blonde worth checking out. She endures a good d.p. scene with Ben English and Marco Duato - and looks delectable throughout. The boys drill her solidly and steadily and then drench her face with spunk.
Paola Rey and Zenza Raggi make sweet European love to each other. But Paola turns nasty when she grinds her ass and humps Zenza's cock during doggie.
Brandy Nichole and Jewel Affair are both cute young girls and give a decent showing here.

Spatial synchrony in population dynamics is a ubiquitous feature across a range of taxa. Understanding factors influencing this synchrony may shed light on important drivers of population dynamics. Three mechanisms influence the degree of spatial synchrony between populations: dispersal, shared predators, and spatial environmental covariance (the Moran effect). We assessed demographic spatial synchrony in recruitment (calf:cow ratio) of 10 northern mountain caribou herds in the Yukon Territory, Canada (1982–2008). Shared predators and dispersal were ruled out as causal mechanisms of spatial recruitment synchrony in these herds and therefore any spatial synchrony should be due to the Moran effect. We also assessed the degree of spatial synchrony in April snow depth to represent environmental variability. The regional average spatial synchrony in detrended residuals of April snow depth was 0.46 (95% CI 0.37 to 0.55). Spatial synchrony in caribou recruitment was weak at 0.13 (95% CI −0.06 to 0.32). The spatial scale of synchrony in April snow depth and caribou recruitment was 330.2 km (95% CI 236.3 to 370.0 km) and 170.0 km (95% CI 69.5 to 282.8 km), respectively. We also investigated how the similarity in terrain features between herds influenced the degree of spatial synchrony using exponential decay models. Only the difference in elevation variability between herds during calving was supported by the data. Herds with more similar elevation variability may track snowmelt ablation patterns in a more similar fashion, which would subsequently result in more synchronized predation rates on calves and/or nutritional effects impacting juvenile survival. Interspecific interactions with predators and alternate prey may also influence spatial synchrony of recruitment in these herds.

That was very strange. Last night, I shut down successfully, and I haven't installed any new software in days. In fact, the only thing I've installed recently was a Firefox update. This morning, I tried getting on my laptop and was met with a BSOD and the Windows 7 system repair utility.
Anyway, long story short, a system restore solved the problem (or the symptoms but not the underlying cause? I don't know). I would like to know what was giving me so much trouble.

"We have to allow them to build up the capacity and capability to do this once we leave. And, so we're doing that very carefully. We're doing it deliberately; we're thinning our lines slowly, and they're slowly taking on more and more responsibility."
-Gen. Raymond T. Odierno, at the USO's 48th Annual Armed Forces Gala and Gold Medal Dinner, in Manhattan, N.Y., reasserted that it's imperative that the Iraqis become responsible for their own security since U.S. forces are slated to depart Iraq no later than Dec. 31, 2011

LEAP Awards Recognize Excellence Across the Army Enterprise
What is it?
As the Army moves to adapt its institutions, senior leaders are recognizing the contributions that Lean Six Sigma (LSS) practitioners provide to the force. On November 24th, the Army held the second annual LSS Excellence Award Program (LEAP) ceremony for LSS practitioners leading superior process improvement and project execution. Commissioned by the Secretary of the Army, the LEAP Award is intended to recognize individuals and teams who demonstrate excellence in building, sustaining, and implementing results-driven process improvement projects.
Currently there are over 8,000 LSS practitioners embedded across the Army. Out of these, the Manpower & Reserve Affairs/G1 team led by Dr. Michael Drillings received three LEAP Awards: two individual practitioner awards and the HQDA Organizational Deployment award for enterprise-wide project work extending beyond the team's functional area.
What has the Army done?
In the last year the M&RA/G1 LSS Team has documented over $40 million in cost savings and over $30 million in cost avoidance for the Army. This financial benefit translates to supporting Soldiers and Soldier families with stronger processes and quicker results with fewer mistakes. With committed leadership and a dedicated team effort, M&RA/G1 LSS enabled the Reserve Component (RC) to assume active-duty for contingency operations 50 percent faster by simplifying and automating application processes. By carefully analyzing customer issues and working across the Army enterprise, M&RA/G1 LSS helped reduce the Wounded Warrior Medical Retention Processing (MRP) wait time from almost 12 days to less than two days. In both projects the results extended beyond a dollar amount; it allowed for better-informed resource management and improved force preservation.
What continued efforts does the Army have planned for the future?
The M&RA/G1 LSS Team continues to identify, develop and implement process improvements dedicated to sustaining the all-volunteer force and improving the lives the Soldiers and families. It is the team's goal to continue working across organizational lines to do what is best as an integrated institution.
Why is LSS important to the Army?
LSS uses a set of data-driven tools to improve operational and organizational processes. Applied to the Army, this total systems approach encourages enterprise-wide synergy. Typically, processes that seem localized and self-contained start to spread across the organization and require total Army Leadership support. By embracing the enterprise approach, the Army can continue to benefit from and duplicate the success of LSS as a business organization, institution and culture.

The Dino Construction Company T-Top the Triceratops Bulldozer is part dinosaur and part construction vehicle. And both parts combine to create a fun and unique sandbox toy. The triceratops' head moves up and down, and kids can also open and close its mouth. The tail is also posable. The wheel treads leave dino tracks in the sand as kids push the vehicle around. Kids can scoop up sand or dirt in the dinosaur's mouth or even have pretend play inside with this toy.
This is a cute toy that combines two things that preschoolers love: dinosaurs and construction vehicles. It has a sturdy design, making it perfect for outdoor and indoor play. No matter where kids play with this toy, they're sure to be engaged in lots of open-ended play.
Dino Construction Company T-Top the Triceratops Bulldozer is for ages 3 and up.
This toy does not roll well on smooth surfaces. It works better on carpet, dirt, or sand.
Go ahead and get this dirty. Just hose it off, and you're ready to play indoors.
Additional Dino Construction Company toys include the T-Rex Skid Loader, Brachiosaurus Backhoe, and Ankylosaurus Steam Roller. Each is sold separately.
This toy is available at Amazon.com.

Name of Professor
Global Warming and the Slums
The slum areas in the world have been growing at an alarming rate People from the countryside are trooping to the cities in to secure jobs that are sorely lacking in the countryside . The problem however , is that the jobs in the cities are also lacking . As such , the people who go there also do not have enough money to secure decent housing for themselves . Instead , they go to the slums and start their lives there . According to
Mike Davis (2004 , cities and urban areas are now absorbing around two-thirds of the the world . This means that the number of people in the countryside is declining and that of the cities , particularly the slums , are growing exponentially
This growth of the slum areas does have an important impact on global warming and climate change . In fact , the different problems being faced by slums such as garbage disposal as well as the lack of economic power and mobility of the people in these slums affect human evolution and the state of human society as a whole . This seeks to explore the effect of urban slums to global warming as well as the effects of global warming to human habitation
Slums , Garbage and Global Warming
Human habitation in the slums tend to create a number of problems which are exacerbated by the neglect of governments and a seemingly intentional desire to keep the people in these slum areas due to the needs of industries in the developing countries where these slums are located . One the main problems of slums is the waste disposal and management of the people living there . Both solid and liquid wastes are not properly disposed in slum areas . In fact , some slum areas are even in the midst of dumping areas
This problem in waste disposal is contributing heaps and tons in the problems of global warming . Since slum areas are usually close to bodies of water such as rivers , streams , and seas , the garbage from these slums are dumped directly into these bodies of water , contributing greatly to pollution and to the blogging of these bodies of water during the rainy season . These pieces of garbage will then be sent to the ocean and will affect the lives of animals in the sea
In addition to this , slums are also poorly ventilated and also located in busy streets and highways of cities all over the world . Because of this , they also contribute to the noise and to the inability of the cities to deal with carbon dioxide emission levels
On the other hand , the increasing level of global warming also has an important effect on the dwellings of people in the slum areas . Since global warming affects the seasons , slum areas are more prone to extremes in temperatures . Slum areas usually lack ventilation . As such the area is usually very hot and uncomfortable . People will therefore be affected so much by the heat generated...

The Financial Times Reports on TechnoServe's Work in Latin America
October 17, 2012
The Financial Times highlighted TechnoServe's work in Latin America in a report on development models that support and invest in entrepreneurs in emerging markets.
Business plan competition finalists in Venezuela participate in a TechnoServe training as part of Idea Tu Empresa, a Cargill-supported program that helps entrepreneurs launch businesses.
The Financial Times highlighted TechnoServe's work in Latin America in a report on development models that support and invest in entrepreneurs in emerging markets. The article emphasized the role that programs such as Idea Tu Empresa play in linking entrepreneurs with public and private partners in order to unlock economic opportunities.
In one example, the group is working with Cargill in Venezuela and Foco Sustentable, an entrepreneur development group, on a business plan competition to help entrepreneurs in the seven regions where Cargill operates.
TechnoServe and its local partners work with the potential entrepreneurs to develop effective business plans and Cargill offers them opportunities to participate in its supply chain.
"There's a legacy in certain groups in the region of distrust towards large corporations and toward the financial markets," says Bruce McNamer, TechnoServe president and CEO.
"But, having a mission-based institution bringing together corporations and other market-based mechanisms in order to service the poor can bring all parties together."

I really like the wash on these and how they're a really pale, washed out blue color. I think the shredding up the leg also adds a nice touch, giving these a really relaxed vibe. They seem to suit Olivia's off duty style well. You can buy American Eagle online at AE.com.

Anatomy of a Failure
The Occupation of Iraq
Winning the War, Losing the Peace
Ali A. Allawi
Yale University Press, $28, 544 pp.
Who lost Iraq? This blame game will be the stuff of U.S. electoral politics for the next decade, but for now the military and diplomatic failings of the Bush administration have seemed explanation enough. A foolish venture in regime change morphed into a ruinous effort at nation building that now stands on the brink of nation collapse. The breadth of U.S. failure is the stuff of daily headlines and dozens of books by journalists. Despite the excellence of some of these efforts, they don't get beyond the narcissistic nationalism that supposes the last superpower is alone capable of such a debacle. Not so, according to Ali A. Allawi: we had help from the Iraqis themselves, both friends and foes.
Allawi is an Iraqi, educated in England and the United States, who returned in September 2003 to the country he first left as an eleven-year-old. In 2003-04, he served as minister of trade and then minister of finance, and in 2005 he was elected to the Iraqi Transitional National Assembly, which followed the Coalition Provisional Authority (CPA). His insider's account confirms and adds to the list of culprits and causes. He personally witnessed the arrogance and incompetence of CPA head Paul Bremer and the futility of catch-up policies devised in Washington that never caught up with the postinvasion chaos, the emerging insurgency, or the sectarian civil war. Many Iraqi exiles, long gone from their country, had little...

Gigabyte H55N USB3 motherboard review -
Final Words and Verdict
The Verdict
These little motherboards always offer heaps of fun and features don't they ? It's just good to see how much stuff you can chuck into something so small. The end results as such was impressive. Though the boards are not the cheapest at roughly 90 EUR / 105 USD you are building a platform that is small, easy to carry around yet you still get an excellent feature set. The inclusion of the full PCIe x16 slot, the USB 3.0 headers, the wide range of monitor connectivity and even the Optical SPDIF Toslink audio output it all makes the motherboard, as tiny as it is, very feature rich and up-top date on modern standards.
The Mini-ITX motherboard is a perfect example of getting the most out of your hardware. At 17x17 CM we see a PCB fully utilizing everything it can. Face it, this motherboard performs as well as any regular H55 based motherboard and comes is packed with 95% of the regular features as well.
So for a reasonable amount of money you get a proper baseline performing Core i3 and i5 ready motherboard. Pop in a Clarkdale based processor and et voilla, you'll have working 2D/3D graphics as well. It's pretty much all you need to get Windows Vista or 7 going properly. Should you want to game in a more serious fashion, then just make use of the PCIe slot and pop in a dedicated graphics card.
Though we did not cover it deeply, you can even overclock your processor in the BIOS. A somewhat decent selection of features is offered there including Multiplier control and the ability to over and undervolt the processor. Memory overclocking is also fairly good, all memory timings are available, and each timing has an AUTO parameter scales properly with frequency. How much overclock options you actually need on a motherboard like this remains trivial though, but the implementation certainly is very decent should you need it.
Overall the Gigabyte H55N-USB 3.0 is a really fair and good motherboard. Performance is as expected good thanks to H55, and for the money the features are plenty decent for any environment you can think of: automotive, HTPC, desktop, internet, work and even high-end gaming is a very possible alternative here.
Gigabyte stuffed the 17x17cm PCB full with all the features the H55 chipset has to offer and then some more. The one thing you might miss is say an extra PCI x1 slot for more high-end audio. But yeah, there's no room left on the PCB really. Ehm, two things we feel are missing, RAID support and an extra FAN header along with proper FAN RPM control from within the BIOS. But that's all I can think of really.
The H55N-USB 3.0 motherboard comes very recommended as a fair value product. Size apparently doesn't matter, as you can gain every foreseeable and modern option a regular sized mainstream ATX motherboard offers as well, and what makes this a great deal is that you can pair it with any socket 1156 processor. Fast, versatile, feature rich, petite and even USB 3.0 .... we like that.

Turner believes Falcons can fix holes in run game
FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. -- Atlanta Falcons running back Michael Turner has heard the critics say that he's too slow and too old to convert short-yardage downs.
He couldn't disagree more.
"Everybody's going to nitpick," Turner said on Thursday. "We're a different team this year, obviously, with philosophies and things like that, but I mean we're 8-1. That's the bottom line. To get Ws. We're not worried about it."
Coming off their first loss of the season, Turner and the Falcons were punchless in short-yardage situations last week at New Orleans.
The two-time Pro Bowl running back was held to his least productive day in five seasons with Atlanta, running 13 times for 15 yards.
But Turner said that the Falcons have done far more right offensively this season than they've done wrong.
Atlanta ranks fourth in passing and seventh in scoring, but just 26th in rushing. Turner insists that the Falcons only need to make a few corrections against Arizona (4-5) on Sunday to get the running game operating efficiently.
Last week was ugly. On eight plays, New Orleans stuffed Turner either for no gain or lost yardage. The worst came on third-and-goal at the 1 in the game's final 2 minutes.
The Falcons lined up in a seven-man front, sent tight end Michael Palmer in motion and had fullback Mike Cox ready to take on a defender to spring Turner.
Instead, a blocking breakdown by left tackle Sam Baker trigged a collapse that allowed three Saints to tackle Turner in the backfield. On the next snap, Matt Ryan's go-ahead touchdown pass to Roddy White was knocked down.
Turner gave the Saints credit instead of blaming his teammates.
"Sometimes defenses are going to have good schemes against us and be able to get good penetration and things like that," Turner said. "It's just something we have to handle and run different types of plays sometimes and just clean it up."
Still, the problems must be corrected quickly. The Falcons want to repair the blow to their collective ego from last season's 24-2 playoff loss at the New York Giants.
Three times they lined up to convert short-yardage plays against the eventual Super Bowl champions and three times they failed.
It wasn't the first game in which Atlanta and Turner had struggle struggles. In 40 attempts inside the opponents' 10-yard line last season, Turner averaged a paltry 1.1 yards. The year before, he had just 1.3 yards on 41 attempts.
"We don't take anything for granted," Turner said. "You've got to expect things to get tougher as the years go on and especially if you're a good team, people are going to give you their best shot. So we have to be prepared for everybody's best shot."
For this same problem to be cropping up again seems like a bad harbinger.
"It's inexcusable," tight end Tony Gonzalez said. "We are too good to let that happen. We should be able to convert those downs especially with a guy like Michael Turner back there. We should be able to get that first down, and I think we will in the future. It's just all about execution, and guys all being on the same page."
It didn't take long for offensive coordinator Dirk Koetter to see the problems on film.
On several short-yardage plays that failed, the Falcons either missed a blocking assignment, didn't account for an all-out blitz or had multiple issues in protection.
"Yeah, it's a bad thing," Koetter said. "If you had a magic wand and could wave it, then it would be easy to fix everything if you had that magic wand. Again, that's one part of the game. We came up short in that part and eventually that added up to us coming up short on the scoreboard."
Turner believes that the Falcons must stay persistent and not give up on themselves just because a few plays didn't go their way.
"Of course, of course, but it seems like everybody's finding what's wrong with us and finding reasons to doubt us more than just say things that we're doing good at," he said. "But that's fine. Nobody's putting any more pressure on us than we're putting on ourselves. Our expectations are high, and we take pride in being great and doing the things we need to get better at. We can obviously see it, and we'll take care of it."
