Pursuant to the Accountability of Tax Dollars Act of 2002, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is required to prepare and submit to Congress and the Office of Management and Budget audited financial statements. Pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, amended in 2010 by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act), SEC is also required to submit audited financial statements for the Investor Protection Fund (IPF) to Congress. GAO, under its audit authority, audited SEC's and IPF's financial statements to determine whether (1) the financial statements are fairly presented, and (2) SEC maintained effective internal control over financial reporting. GAO also tested SEC's compliance with selected provisions of laws and regulations. In accordance with the 1934 act, as amended by the Dodd-Frank Act, GAO also reported on SEC's assessment of its internal control over financial reporting.
In GAO's opinion, SEC's fiscal years 2011 and 2010 financial statements are fairly presented in all material respects. Also in GAO's opinion, IPF's fiscal years 2011 and 2010 financial statements are fairly presented in all material respects. In addition, GAO concluded that although internal controls could be improved, SEC maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting for both the agency as a whole and IPF as of September 30, 2011. GAO's conclusion on the effectiveness of SEC's internal control over financial reporting is consistent with SEC's assessment of its internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2011. GAO found no reportable noncompliance for either SEC or IPF in fiscal year 2011 with the provisions of laws and regulations it tested. During fiscal year 2011, SEC made important progress in addressing previously reported material weaknesses in internal control over its information systems and over its financial reporting and accounting processes. Because of these improvements, GAO concluded that the deficiencies that comprised these weaknesses no longer constitute material weaknesses. However, GAO also concluded that, because of the remaining control deficiencies along with newly identified deficiencies in fiscal year 2011, SEC had significant deficiencies in its internal control in four areas: (1) information security, (2) financial reporting and accounting processes, (3) budgetary resources, and (4) registrant deposits and filing fees. These significant deficiencies pertain to SEC's financial reporting, but not that of IPF because of the nature of IPF's financial transactions during fiscal year 2011. While these significant deficiencies are not material weaknesses, they nonetheless warrant the attention of those charged with SEC's governance. SEC's ability to establish and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting remains at risk until it can reduce its reliance on compensating manual financial reporting and accounting processes. GAO will be separately reporting at a later date to SEC on additional details regarding these significant deficiencies along with recommendations for corrective action. GAO noted other matters involving SEC's internal control that were less significant than a material weakness or significant deficiency and will also be reporting separately to SEC management on these matters. GAO is not making recommendations in this report, but will be reporting separately on the control issues identified during its audit, along with recommendations for corrective actions. In commenting on a draft of this report, SEC stated that, as part of its strategy for addressing financial reporting control issues, SEC will complete migration of its core financial system to a federal government shared service provider in fiscal year 2012. SEC also plans to continue to remediate deficiencies in other areas.

Product Description
"This book is the field guide for the birds of the Indian Subcontinent…. Most highly recommended."--Wildlife Activist
"Exactly what was needed. The authors have done a wonderful job of balancing the needs of information and space."--Bird Watcher's Digest
"Achieve[s] the high standards one expects from Princeton University Press field guides. Excellent for casual bird enthusiasts and serious birders making short visits to the regions covered."--Condor
"The amazing variety of colorful species represented in this field guide are a feast for the mind and the eye, even if one is not planning on boarding the next plane for a birding trip to the subcontinent."--Dorothy Borders, Backyard Birder blog
"A guide to India has a lot of ground to cover, and with a growing cadre of local birders as part of an increasing middle class in the country, it's as apt to be used as extensively by Indians as by visitors to India, which makes it doubly important that it's right. . . . Both local and visiting birders have a lot to look forward to in this guide, but you'd expect nothing less from Princeton University Press. There are only a few options for those wishing to bird India, they're certainly fortunate that the one that's available is of such uniformly high quality."--Nate Swick, Drinking Bird blog
"The quality of the color plates and the amount of detailed information packed into this relatively compact field guide make this a top title for anyone interested in birds of the Indian Subcontinent and a must for any birder traveling to the region. I give Birds of India 4.5 Goldfinches out of 5."--Amy Evenstad, Magnificent Frigatebird blog
"I would recommend Birds of India: Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Sri Lanka, and the Maldives for any birders who live in or will be traveling to visit India or one of its neighbors."--John Beetham, A DC Birding Blog
"Without a doubt, this user-friendly guide is a must for anyone heading to the Indian subcontinent or for those who simply want to add another remarkable field guide to their library. My next backpacking trip will hopefully be the Indian subcontinent and the Birds of India will certainly be the first item packed."--Ethan Kistler, Nomadic Birder blog
"What a beautiful book. Since I was a child, reading Rudyard Kipling's Jungle Book, I have wanted to go to India. I haven't made it yet, but if I ever get to go, this book will be in my suitcase, even if something else has to be left out."--Penny Miller, A Charm of Finches blog
"Even if you have the first edition of the Birds of India: Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Sri Lanka, and the Maldives, you will benefit enormously from this second edition. . . . Comprehensive and authoritative, this is an indispensable guide for anyone birding anywhere in the Indian Subcontinent."--Frank Lambert, Birder's Library blog
"This latest book on the birds of India becomes the one to own and the one use in the field, and although no one will find themselves alone in India, I can heartily recommend Birds Of India as a worthy companion for any birder planning to visit there, or indeed any part of the Indian subcontinent. It will also follow someone around by fitting into a rucksack or a large pocket."--Another Bird Blog
"The best field guide to the birds of the Indian subcontinent is now even better. . . . I thoroughly recommend this and can't wait to get back to the sub-continent for it to help me fill some gaps in my lists!"--Fatbirder
"Fantastic and thorough."--Eddie Callaway, Birdfreak

Most Helpful Customer Reviews on Amazon.com (beta)
I highly recommend the selection of this field guide for birders visiting India.
For every bird, it has a short text describing its key field marks and its habitat and distribution. The best thing about the field guide is that it has description, images and distribution maps all side-by-side. The plates are pretty good and realistic. On the negative side, the print is a little small and may be difficult to read for some people. Also, for some birds, the colors are a bit off, as if I am looking at an old photograph. I only found that an issue for some birds where the color differences are subtle. But, it is not that big a deal. The description does clearly point out the field marks when the differences are that subtle.
So, if you are looking for a field guide for India birds, I would heartily recommend this book. Even the Indian birders that I met, suggested this as the best field guide for Indian birds.
Aside from this, my only other complaint is the missing table of contents. I handled this by typing a list of the main bird groups and taping it inside the front cover. This works well. I also tape in a chart showing the relationship of sizes in cm and in inches.
But I still think this is an outstanding bird book. It seems to be well-bound so it won't fall apart with use. The pictures are beautiful and give an indication of relative sizes.I enjoyed the descriptions of the different groups of birds at the beginning. Most helpful is the descriptions of the birds where they are compared with similar birds. I have been studying this book for several months now, even though we don't plan our trip to India until early next year.

The Brides of March 2014 in Downtown Phoenix
A flash-mob style pub crawl that consists of people donning wedding gowns and mobbing up on a boozy establishment for drinks and all-around good times known as The Brides of March celebrated its annual outing on Saturday, March 15, in Central Phoenix. This year, it started at Kobalt and then visited Lucky Strike/Gypsy Bar, Bliss/ReBar, The Bar on Central, George & Dragon, and finally Charlie's.

It was a colorful, goopy mess Saturday, March 15, at the grand opening of Walter Studios Creative Art Center.
The idea is to celebrate humanity as a beautiful mess, to inspire random acts of goodwill and peace into the growing human network, says founder of Peace Pi Robert Farthing. Attendees had the creative choice of not just choosing what colors they wanted to smash into other peace-goers faces, but why.

Essay - The Great Gatsby Introduction the Purpose of This Paper Is...
The purpose of this paper is to introduce and discuss the meaning of color in "The Great Gatsby" by F. Scott Fitzgerald.
Fitzgerald uses color elaborately in "The Great *****," and it usually has some ulterior *****, like the "green light" that appears throughout ***** novel. Many critics say the green light symbolizes Daisy, but it is more than that.
Gatsby believed in the ***** light, the orgastic future that year by ***** recedes before us. It eluded us *****n, ***** that's no matter - to-morrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther.... ***** one f*****e morning..." (Fitzgerald 212). The green light ***** the whole type of life they were living. Their lives did not mean much -- ***** were empty and phony. They lived them year after year beca*****e that is what they did in East Egg, and society was the most important thing, you were who you knew, and ***** you had.
There are several other ***** references in the novel, and they all have ********** to do with the lifestyle, and how these shallow people live. Wilson's face is green just ***** the "yellow car" hits his wife. The trees ***** gave way for Gatsby's house ***** *****, and so is the water ***** ***** **********, on that hot day when they all drove into New York, and everything changed. Green in the novel also signifies change, as well ***** life going on.
***** green light also symbolizes the divide between West Egg and ***** Egg. Gatsby can see the green light from his house in ***** *****, but no matter how ***** m*****y he has, ***** how many parties he throws, ***** people of West Egg will still look down on him a little bit. ***** Egg just does not me*****sure up, and the green ***** sh*****ing across the ***** bay ***** divides the two communities, is the v*****ible symbol that in the eyes of ***** residents ***** East *****, West Egg is just another town, ***** ***** "slum it" when they come to Gatsby's *****.
Of c*****se green is also the ***** of money, and ***** is the ultimate theme of the book. You can call it many different things, from "money is ***** root of all evil," to "money does not buy happiness," to "***** corrupts," but the book is all about money, and the references to green throughout ***** ***** can ***** all lead back ***** *****, or the lack ***** it.
The color green, the ***** of money, plays an especially important role in this book - ***** light at the end of Daisy's deck, ***** same light ***** Gatsby watches every night, is green, and at the end ***** the novel, Nick describes North America as the large, undeveloped piece of ***** land had filled that the original Dutch explorers w*****h hope and ambition. In this work, the color green symbolizes ***** quest ***** the American Dream and the belief

From Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and Johns Hopkins University School of Hygiene and Public Health, Baltimore, Maryland.
Background: Black persons historically undergo fewer invasive cardiovascular procedures than white persons.
Objective: To determine whether acquisition of Medicare health insurance and comprehensive care for severe illness reduce ethnic disparity in use of cardiovascular procedures.
Design: 7-year longitudinal analyses in a cohort from the United States Renal Data System.
Setting: Health care institutions in the United States.
Patients: Nationwide random sample of 4987 adult black and white patients with incident end-stage renal disease (ESRD) from 303 dialysis facilities in 1986 to 1987.
Measurements: Medical history and service use records, physical examination, and laboratory data. Main outcome measures were receipt of a coronary catheterization or revascularization procedure before (baseline) and after (follow-up) development of ESRD and acquisition of Medicare, adjusted for clinical and socioeconomic variables.
Results: At baseline, 9.9% of white patients and 2.8% of black patients had had a cardiac procedure; the odds were almost three times greater in white than in black patients (adjusted odds ratio, 2.92 [95% CI, 2.04 to 4.18]). During follow-up, white patients were only 1.4 times more likely than black patients to have a procedure (adjusted relative risk, 1.41 [CI, 1.13 to 1.77]); rates were 7.8% for white persons and 8.5% for black persons. In patients with Medicare coverage before development of ESRD, the initial threefold difference in procedure use was eliminated over follow-up (odds ratio, 1.05 [CI, 0.56 to 1.60]). For procedures after hospital admission for myocardial infarction or coronary disease, no difference between ethnic groups was seen during follow-up (relative risk, 1.12 [CI, 0.68 to 1.85]).
Conclusions: Differences between ethnic groups in use of cardiovascular procedures narrowed markedly once a serious illness (ESRD) developed and adequate insurance coverage was ensured; the disparity was eliminated in patients with previous Medicare insurance or a stronger indication for a procedure. These findings suggest that almost equal access to care is attainable by combining insurance with delivery of comprehensive, clinically appropriate care.
The odds ratios are derived from a logistic regression model that included the following covariates: age, sex, health insurance status at baseline, coronary artery disease at baseline, cholesterol level, history of smoking, presence of a malignant condition, and days at risk for a procedure. The heights of the bars represent the 95% CIs for the odds ratios; the horizontal lines represent the point estimates.
The odds ratios are derived from a logistic regression model that included the following covariates: age, sex, presence of coronary artery disease at baseline, presence of a malignant condition, and days at risk for a procedure. The striped bars represent odds ratios (point estimates and 95% CIs) at baseline; the white bars represent odds ratios at follow-up.

Gender Equality, Not Discrimination, as a Route to Development in Rural China
Poverty, social discrimination, and inadequate health care plague many nations around the world, and while unique nations generally face different problems, there is one striking similarity within the developing world: women typically suffer disproportionately to men.[1] This paper seeks to explore some of the issues of gender inequality in rural China, where the rights to life, education, and employment are regularly denied based on gender. Gender discrimination, which in the case of China is largely the result of cultural biases and government policy indirectly favoring male children from birth, is not only in itself a violation of human rights, but it is also a significant barrier to all aspects of development. In spite of the widespread cultural prejudices in certain regions, Chinese development programs cannot succeed without securing gender equality.
Amartya Sen's notion of "missing women" is a brilliant illustration of today's gender inequality among certain groups in China,[2] where the ratio of surviving male to female infants is estimated to be 122:100.[3] Two main practices account for this trend: the inequitable distribution of family resources to support male children and the elective abortion — even outright murder — of female children.[4] While China is a nation traditionally favoring small families and male children,[5] the enactment of 1979 One-Child Family policy, which aimed to control population and to reduce the economic burden of emerging groups of rural poor, further exacerbated the male to female infant survival disparity.[6] Regions with stricter enforcement of this policy have a significantly higher male to female ratio.[7] The One-Child Family policy raises the question of whether it is responsible for the widespread understanding in some regions that killing female infants at birth is acceptable.[8] Such horrifying discrimination against female children, even before birth, is estimated to have cost the lives of 50 million Chinese women.[9] While the policy attempts to reduce the country's population growth rate, and is, therefore, needed for development, it comes at an unnecessary expense. More effective policies investing in women's education and establishing equal employment opportunities would achieve similar results without violating human rights.
Women's education is central to containing population growth. Amartya Sen argues that the only two variables "that are seen to have a statistically significant effect on fertility are (1) female literacy and (2) female labor force participation."[10] In rural China, however, educational opportunities are commonly unavailable to female children, who are instead pushed into unskilled positions at young ages, while male children are kept in school because of the perception that male children offer a better "financial return" [11] for parents, both by supporting them in rural fields and in old age.[12] As a result of this gender bias, illiteracy rates among women in rural China are between two to three times higher than those of their male counterparts.[13] Consequently, many women are prevented from holding positions of authority, if not even excluded from employment entirely. [14] Within rural China, for example, while 65% of women work, women occupy only 1-2% of the decision making roles.[15] While changing cultural biases against women may be impossible on an immediate basis, permitting women to enjoy education and economic opportunities will empower them to advocate for their human rights, not only resulting in fertility reduction but also leading to the benefit of the entire Chinese society. Estimates indicate that, at present, billions of dollars worth of China's GDP are lost due to the active exclusion of women from the workforce.[16] Increased government funding for women's education and prevention of work place gender discrimination are key to Chinese development.
It is undisputable that various actions of the Chinese government have succeeded in generating tremendous economic growth over the past 30 years. However, this narrowly focused approach towards economic growth has failed to deliver development. Gender discrimination within China, especially in rural areas, is widespread. The Chinese government should endorse a plan to protect the equal rights of both men and women, starting with the repeal of the One Child Family policy. A generation of better educated women, with equal employment opportunities, will be a crucial component for the nation's long-term development. Until changes are made, the short-sighted economic "progress" that China demonstrates today will continue to occur at a heavy humanitarian cost.

Two men were arrested Thursday morning for their role in a drive-by theft early Thursday morning, but one woman remains at large.
The victim tells police that the female suspect is the one who actually stole from him; the roles of the two in custody are still under investigation.
The victim was reportedly walking his dog in the area of Centennial and Garden of the Gods when a car pulled up beside him. A woman got out of the vehicle and asked the victim if he had any money. When he pulled out a "wad" of cash, the suspect allegedly snatched it from him and sped away in the vehicle.
Shortly after the theft, the victim says the car passed by again. This time, he says a man in the car flashed a gun at him, causing the victim to fear for his life.
Police pulled over the car a few blocks away from the scene and arrested two people, including the man allegedly with the gun. The woman was nowhere to be found. Police were unable to find a gun in the vehicle, though they did find a holster.
Joseph Kennedy, 23, and Christopher Richards, 20, both face felony charges of conspiracy to commit theft from a person. One of the men also faces menacing charges, but police have not specified which suspect. Records show that both men have bonded out of the CJC.
Anyone with information on this incident or the female suspect's whereabouts are asked to contact Springs police, or call Crime Stoppers at 634-STOP.

A few years ago, I found on arXiv an article in which the authors (I think they were at least two to write it) claimed to have proven that the non trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function were all simple using the concept of Riemann surfaces. But unfortunately, I just can't find it back. Does someone know if such a result has been published and widely accepted by the mathematical community? Thank you in advance.
This is widely open. Moreover, I think we will prove the Riemann Hypothesis much earlier than the simplicity of the zeros (if true). The latter is somehow much more accidental, the only reasonable argument I know in favor of it is "why would two zeros ever coincide"? Note, however, that some automorphic $L$-functions do have multiple zeros. If I recall correctly, even a Dedekind $L$-function can have a multiple zero at the center.
To the best of my knowledge, it is still an open question as to whether all the zeros are simple. If you could find that article....
For what it's worth, any number of "proofs" of the Riemann Hypothesis have appeared on the ArXiv. Here are a few (I've not included three more that were withdrawn by the authors).

0906.4604 A Proof for the Riemann Hypothesis, Ruiming Zhang
0903.3973 Concerning Riemann Hypothesis, Raghunath Acharya
0802.1764 Riemann Hypothesis may be proved by induction, R. M. Abrarov, S. M. Abrarov [EDIT: It appears that this paper does not actually claim a proof of RH - see Gregory's answer to the question (and my comment on Gregory's answer).]

0801.0633 From Bombieri's Mean Value Theorem to the Riemann Hypothesis, Fu-Gao Song

Gave the gravy a 5, also added some finely chopped green pepper to the meat. Since we use very lean ground meat, I thought it was kind of dry. Next time I will add an egg and some bread crumbs to the meat to moisten, as a similar recipe suggested. Otherwise, this is EXCELLENT and I will be making this again! My family loved it.
Great Gravy Inez!!!! I fixed this along with mashed taters and corn for the office an my day to bring lunch. Everyone had a fit. I was teased for always going overboard and making everyone else look bad. I added a tablespoon of horseradish to the meat because I like that flavor. But the gravy! The last bits were mopped up with a roll. The dish looked like it had been washed. Thanks Inez
This is now a new family favorite. I was surprised when my very picky daughter couldn't get enough of this. I also used fresh green beans. I will be making this over and over again.

That is a manual page. You can view it by downloading the file and doing this command in a terminal window (assuming you're on a UNIXy system like Linux or Mac OS X):
You can edit it with any text editor.
A little bit of extra info:
Man pages all end in the extensions
*: List of sections from the Wikipedia page on man pages.
Technically, it's plain text, i.e. any text editor can edit it. As for what it's saying... It looks like some sort of scripting language, but not one I recognize. From line 365,
As an aside, file extensions don't really mean anything. They're just a "rule of thumb" for determining file types. A lot of plain text files either have no extensions or "unconventional" extensions, like .old or .bak for backup copies of files, or .1 for file one.

Toilet Paper Roll "2 or 3 Fingers" Finger Puppets
I was staring at all my saved toilet paper rolls recently, trying to figure out what to do with them, when I realized that they would make cute "2 or 3 fingers" finger puppets. I finally got around to doing this project with the girls last night and I think they came out really cute. We also had a really good time making them and playing with them. I predict that we will be making more of these soon. Below is a quick tutorial on how to make these easy finger puppets.
Supplies that you need:
Toilet paper rolls
Felt, fabric or colored paper scraps
Yarn cut up in to pieces for hair
Glue (we used Tacky Glue)
1. First we glued on the eyes and drew the mouth and nose.
2. Then we designed clothing from our felt scraps and glued them onto our puppets.
3. The last thing we did was glue on the yarn for hair (R gave her puppet's "hair" a trim and added side bangs!).
The finger puppets were super easy and super fun to make. By the way this project worked well for my 4yo, 7yo and 10yo.

I bought an AWS reserved instance last week and I saw it on the Reserved Instances page on the AWS Management Console. Now, I can't find it! At all! It's like I never bought it. The only 'proof' that I bought it can be seen on the accounts activity page, showing my payment for the instance (medium type instance BTW). What's even more annoying is that I cannot contact AWS for help except I buy a support package. I'd hate to pay for support to fix an error I think they caused. Not sure what to do now.
a reserved instance is just a billing term. If you have a medium instance running it will pick a medium instance to use for the billing terms.
If there are no medium instances running that it might have been retired. That happens if you don't pay attention to your email. Sometimes with ec2 is the hardware suffers a failure so they retire everyone's ec2 instances on that hardware. They send out an email with a retire date. Another thing is the hardware might have just died quickly so no warning email was sent out and it's now just gone.

Shogun 2: Total War looks really hot

You know, typical 16 Century Japanese warfare. The usual.
Get it below, thanks to GameTrailers.
In the game, you'll play as Daimyo, a clan leader, who will set out to be named Shogun thanks to his "military engagements," economics and diplomacy.

At some point in the next several months, the Phillies will have to make a decision on Jimmy Rollins, whose contract expires at the end of the season. Many factors will be taken into account. How well Rollins plays. How much money he wants. How many years he wants it for.
And, not insignificantly, who takes over if the best shortstop in franchise history doesn't return.
Which is what makes Freddy Galvis such an intriguing player to follow starting with spring training.
Two years ago, he was being talked up as the shortstop of the future. His defense was already deemed to be Gold Glove caliber. The only question was when he would be able to hit well enough to play every day in the big leagues.

"Breath-taking Kimana" Kimana by croisbeauty
Kimana Travel Guide: 39 reviews and 221 photos
It does not metter weather you're visiting Masai Mara, Amboselli, Tsavo or Kimana, the beauty of nature is just breath-taking, everywhere you go. Some like day-light, others prefer sunsets but the sunrise and dawn in savannah are the most spectacular part of the day. It was amazing experience watching animals in their first morning activities, but most of all, I was fascinated by the spectacular colours of the landscape.
This picture is made in a first sunrise, without filter or any other photo device, and it looks spectacular. I just couldn't belive what comes out of my camera when saving it to my pc.
While most of the animals start eating early in the morning, antelopes have their jogging time. It was amazing watching them in a full speed trying to outrun each other. Some species run and suddenly jump, changing direction swift like an arrow. Amazing experience and spectacular scenes.

Boris, excellent photos and beaut tips of your game park experiences! Once Africa gets into your blood, you are hooked - but I would still love to see the Balkans too! No worries re your airplane - that was a safe Canadian-built Twin Otter bushplane!!
You have what appears to be a natural knack for not only using a camera, but for using words as well. So descriptive, so detailed, so much heart!

Receive what one deserves, especially appropriate punishment: those who caused great torment to others rarely got their just deserts

- Even defendants who are returned to court rarely receive their just deserts.
- All of this might be put down to us being both blatant and stupid travellers, ignorantly and arrogantly swanning our way around and duly receiving our just deserts.

Change in China's age structure is creating concerns about whether reductions in family size undermine traditional support mechanisms for older adults. Future generations may expect less support as the availability of children declines. In this article, the association between number of children and the receipt of instrumental and financial support is examined for rural and urban populations. Probabilities are modeled as bivariate probits. Coefficients are used to conduct simulations in which support is examined across hypothetical distributions of number of children. The results show that the number of children is an important determinant of support, but future reductions in support may not be as dramatic as anticipated.

Zeller Gmelin Corp. Moving to Henrico
The Henrico County Economic Development Authority (EDA) announced today that the Zeller+Gmelin Corp., a worldwide leader in printing inks, has purchased a building at 4801 Audubon Drive in Henrico to house a manufacturing and warehouse distribution center and corporate offices. The company is expected to occupy the 83,427 square-foot facility during the first quarter of 2011.
Headquartered in Eislingen, Germany, Zeller+Gmelin makes UV printing ink products for lithography, flexography, dry offset and screen printing. It operates more than 30 manufacturing and service support facilities worldwide; the company's products are used in more than 75 countries.
The Henrico facility will allow Zeller+Gmelin to expand its business operations and enhance efficiencies and productivity. The property can accommodate future expansions as well.
"We are pleased to welcome Zeller+Gmelin to Henrico County," said Board of Supervisors Chairman Patricia S. O'Bannon. "They will fit right in with the other quality industrial operations in the area. We look forward to a long relationship with this company."
In addition to Henrico EDA, several county agencies assisted in Zeller+Gmelin's acquisition of the property, including Planning, Building Inspections, Community Revitalization and Finance.

About Me Long-time Pet Owner
I got this for my 4 month old corgi puppy. She was born with a heart murmor and my vet made it clear it wouldn't go away. It hasn't gone away, but its greatly diminished ( went from a 3 rating down to a 2 rating). I always thought she was just a very laid back puppy, but I soon realized that it was due to her condition. She is now a wonderful bundle of energy and will out run any dog, any day! Highly recommended!

Hawthorn for a happy Ferrett heart
By Brian
from Denver, CO.
Our ferrett had an irregular heart beat. It was so bad that I couldn't bear to listen to it myself, it scared me. She has been on hawthorn now for a little over a year. While her rhythm isn't perfect, it is much much better than before. Just an occaisional skip. I often listen just to see and it doesn't scare me anymore. Along with taurine and CoQ10, she is as active as she was when she was 2.

Good results
By Mumma
from Anytown, USA
My dog went in for a checkup a year ago and had a highly irregular heartbeat and murmur. A trip to the cardiologist revealed an enlarged heart and the cardiologist suspected he was about to go into congestive heart failure. A year later the arryhthmia is detectable only after exertion and the murmur is barely detectable. I have been giving him Hawthorne and selected this tincture because of the level of the herb. I can't say for certain that the hawthorne is responsible but I do know that my dog's health has improved dramatically without resorting to prescription drugs.

How add Water Mark once upload document into the document Library? i checked TITUS is is working but how to achieve without 3rd party tools.
You have to use 3rd party tools. For example, I used the iTextSharp library to add watermarks to my PDF files, and set up a workflow to automatically fire whenever a document is uploaded into the doc library.
Here's a tutorial for the iTextSharp thing.
