Latin America's Coca-Cola bottlers tussle over the Brazilian market while elsewhere telecom acquisitions heat up
By Ben MillerBrazil has been the center of attention
for Latin America's Coca-Cola bottlers.
Chile's Embotelladora Andina and
Mexico's Coca-Cola Femsa (KOF) both gained
sizeable footprints. KOF agreed to pay $1.86 billion for
Spaipa, the second-largest privately owned coke bottler in
Brazil, two months after picking up Companhia Fluminense de
Refrigerantes in July for $448 million. Analysts said KOF paid
a high price for Spaipa, but the market position might make it
worthwhile. Not to be outdone, Andina moved for Companhia de
Bebidas Ipiranga in a deal valued at $540 million. The purchase
was seen as fair to slightly expensive, and adds to
Andina's existing assets in Brazil as it expands
outside Chile. In telecoms, Millicom agreed to merge its
Colombian wireless operations with Empresas Públicas de
Medellin's (EPM) fixed-line operator UNE. The two
will form a new combined entity. The deal values UNE at $2.1

If you called Franzen a soft Euro, I'd agree with you. But Filppula is not soft. He plays hard and busts his ass every shift. He is a very good 3rd line center that the Wings have to sometimes use on a 2nd line, because they don't have anyone else.
I think we have different definitions of soft. I am not referring to effort or effectiveness, but rather his grit, tenacity, gusto, strength on the puck. Heck, it's a joke between me and my wife how easily Filppula falls down all the time (somewhere a bunny sneezed, and Filppula fell down!), though he seemed to get a hare better in that area towards the end of last season.

5 tips for making an effective presentation
Dallas-area business coach Holly St. John Peck gave the Dallas Morning News five tips for small-business owners on making an effective presentation.
1. Mind over matter. Most people falter in speaking because they're afraid, not because they lack competency. To ease your mind, breathe deeply three times, shake your hands wildly in the air to alleviate adrenaline and gain control of hand gestures, and lastly, reframe your self-talk to be positive.
2. Know your audience. Whether it's one person or 100, do a little research so your message is targeted and you feel confident with your content. What does the audience know or need to know? What's in it for them? What questions will they ask?
3. Prepare and practice. One benefit of electronic communication is that you have the opportunity to think about your message and review it before sending. Face-to-face conversations and presentations should be no different. Take that same approach to develop a presentation outline, along with simple and meaningful visual aids. Then practice, practice, practice.
4. Be authentic and likable. There's a saying, "Like the messenger, like the message." If you can get an audience to like you, you will have a much better chance of that audience being receptive to your message. Use humor (appropriately) and real-world examples that connect to your content. Smile and strive to be approachable, especially at the beginning and end of your presentation.
5. Convey the attitude of a leader -- even if you're not one just yet. Studies show that people who have good interpersonal and speaking skills are perceived to be good leaders with advancement potential.

Amy Winehouse's parents plan to convert her London home into the headquarters for the Amy Winehouse Foundation, a charity organization to to help children in need, say reports.
The 10-room, $4 million house in Camden, North London, where the singer was found dead July 23, will house the organization, whose official mission statement is set to be announced Sept. 14, which would have been Winehouse's 28th birthday.
"The foundation is going to help thousands of people. That is Amy's legacy," Amy's father, Mitch Winehouse, Tweeted Wednesday.
The Amy Winehouse Foundation will be partially funded by proceeds from Winehouse's last recording, a duet with Tony Bennett of the classic "Body and Soul," that will appear on Bennett's upcoming album, Duets II.
The cause of Winehouse's death, at age 27, is still being determined, pending toxicology results.

Stein: Mason-to-Heat Proposal Declined
Via TrueHoop:
The Spurs were hoping to tempt Miami into absorbing Mason's $3.8 million expiring contract into a $4.3 million trade exception that would have enabled the teams to complete a deal without San Antonio needing to take back another player. A future second-round pick from the Heat would have completed the transaction.
But the Heat, dealing with their own luxury-tax issues like San Antonio and reluctant to add to their payroll, ultimately declined.
Other than the Spurs willingness to move Mason for practically nothing but tax relief, this report doesn't provide us with much insight as the trade season's penultimate day comes to a close.
Miami's trade exception expired Monday at midnight, so this particular deal cannot be revived. Although there is no reason to believe the Heat have soured on Mason, and a different looking deal with Miami could get done by tomorrow's deadline, I'm a bit skeptical. Both teams seem set on the same goal- limiting their exposure to the luxury tax- and most easily conceivable deals would achieve that outcome for only one franchise.
N.B. This rumor has been around for a couple of days but it's worth mentioning that Memphis may have some interest in Mason as well.

Game/11 June 09
Something on a trial basis today...Why only puzzles ...So here is the question for today-
What is the difference between a good judge and a great judge?
1-Yeah, go ahead and google it, you will get the answer immediately and notice its just a joke. BUT the winner will be whoever posts the most hilarious answer or the most unique one
2-Winner will be announced by me and if any confusions, admin will finally decide
3- Question will be open for the next whole day. Exactly 24 hours. Also hopefully eveyone will be able to give it a shot.
Re: Game/11 June 09
Nice deviation from the geeky puzzles !
But how do you define the "most" unique / hilarious ?
How do you define the word most, which obviously will vary from person to person ?
Re: Game/11 June 09
In this context, the most hilarious would be what the (self-appointed) judge (me!) finds most hilarious.
In case no one comes up with something like that, then the most unique- i.e, most different or out-of-the-box sort of answer will be chosen.
(But in case of any issues with my "judgement" ...we can bank on admin to check out and decide. )
Re: Game/11 June 09
Good judge can read the person very well and correctly
by their, facial expression, dressing, behaviour, the way they treat others,
on first meeting itself ; )
The decisions of a good judge may not be acceptable by everyone.
Great judge has great natural ability, with a commanding
presence, Also the gift of expressing himself in the clearest manner.
The person who has empathy and has Good Heart.
Great judge is the person who judges a person by the way he calls a waiter in a Hotel ; )
Re: Game/11 June 09
@Mridula: Nice reply
Bole toh, munna ke bapu ki yaad aa gayi
:lol: :lol: :lol:
Re: Game/11 June 09
Googled and found this: :)
What's the difference between a good lawyer and a great lawyer?
A good lawyer knows the law. A great lawyer knows the judge.
Re: Game/11 June 09
Exactly, I rememered Munna Bhai !!
BTW, Priya has asked about Judges not Lawyers : )
Re: Game/11 June 09
This is a crazy one by me :
A good judge and a great judge, if asked to judge a rose and a cabbage; will conclude :
(*) A good judge would conclude that rose smells better than cabbage.
(*) A great judge would conclude that, as rose smells better than cabbage; it would make a better soup !
:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
Re: Game/11 June 09
this one is by me ..
a good judge and a great judge where putted in a competition .. whoever stays longer with a pig in a small room wins .. so the good judge went in .. 30 mins later he ran out saying EWWWWWW SMELLS LIKE HELL ! ..

Re: Game/11 June 09
Good question!!!

Recently there were some truly unkind words spoken against the brave firefighters of our area. Some understanding is given to those in tragic circumstances. Waiting on help during an emergency, seconds drag on like hours. I am not discounting the emotional strain or personality of the person who gave the interview.
My heart lies with those volunteers who deserve so much more than they get. My husband is a third generation fireman as is my nephew who just graduated. My brother-in-law, sister, cousin and many friends all serve in the emergency service world.
They volunteer- that means no pay. There are training hours that must be maintained when not working their "real jobs." Not to mention how many uneaten meals, holidays, cold dark nights and suffering hot afternoons have been spent helping those in need.
Do you know where your local fire department is? Time the drive there from your house one day. Then drive to a volunteer firefighter's house, workplace or errand running area. How long did it take? That gives you an idea of response time.
Let me end this by saying most fire departments will accept new volunteers. They appreciate your support at their fund-raisers. Say thank you next time you see one at the store.
I don't want these brave individuals discouraged by one newspaper article. They deserve more than we can ever give them. This is my small way of giving respect and saying thanks.

Linux Desktop (still) Not Ready For Primetime
By jtb on Jul 13, 2009
The other day, I got an itching to replace the Windows XP OS on my media PC with Linux. It's an older machine that's low on memory and quite slow because of this. However, it does the job as a media PC - it plays all audio and video formats which is about all I need. Nonetheless, boredom drove me to burn and install Ubuntu 9.
The install was simple and went smoothly, but I quickly ran into the first problem. I have a NAS device that runs an embedded Samba server. Windows, and Mac for that matter mount it fine. Linux? Nope. A little googling on this told me that kernel 2.6.25 broke compatibility with the device's Samba implementation. Luckily, it has a USB port as well, and that did work.
After getting my media disk mounted as a USB device, I went to play some movies. I first tried the built in movie player application. It would start, then exit immediately. No errors. I next installed VLC. Same thing. Googling on this topic informed me I need to change the video output device from "default" to "X11". After changing this, videos played on both applications (sort of).
Now, when the videos played, I saw screen tearing now and then when a lot of action occurred. For the life of me, I could not find how to rectify this. A new video driver? I found some instructions for certain types of video cards. I have a generic on-board Intel graphics controller. The colors also looked washed out, but I can't really quantify this as a real problem.
Finally, as Boxee is getting so much hype and it doesn't work on Windows (there's an Alpha now actually), I decided to install that. Apt-get did the job efficiently. Running Boxee got me a blank screen. Googling again showed me that Boxee doesn't support the latest version of Ubuntu which of course is the one I installed.
All in all I ended up with less functionality and poorer performance, and I lost about 4 hours of my life getting as far as I did.

A 19-year-old man was shot and killed on Thursday night on Lembeck Avenue in Jersey City, officials said.
Jersey City police reported to the corner of Lembeck and Ocean avenues around 7:25 p.m. on Thursday night on a report of shots fired, Hudson County Assistant Prosecutor Gene Rubino said. The officers were then redirected to 91 Lembeck Ave., where they found a man on his back and bleeding, Rubino said. EMS came to the scene and attempted to treat the victim, Christopher Lemoine, 19, Rubino said. Lemoine was pronounced dead at 8:03 p.m., he said.
No arrests have been made and the investigation is ongoing, said Rubino. Anyone with information should call the Hudson County Prosecutor's Office Homicide Unit at (201) 915-1345. All calls will be kept confidential.
"I heard three pops," said a woman who lives in the neighborhood. "Then my husband called 911, but we had a hard time getting through."
"I saw 3 or 4 young men run across the street and put something in a garbage can," said the woman's husband. "Later, they came back to retrieve it."

This is untested, but something like this might work
string timeZone[3], state, zone
timeZone[0] = "CST"
timeZone[1] = "EST"
timeZone[2] = "PST"
if state="AL" then zone=timeZone[0]
if state="NY" then zone=timeZone[1]
if state="CA" then zone=timeZone[2]
Close Dani :-), but this isn't C/Java :-P.
First of all, I'm assuming your using VB6. If you're not, tell me what VB version you're using and I'll adjust the code.
A better way of implimenting this, is to add a Class Module. I named my class module clsStateTime, and this is the code inside it:
Public state As String
Public Function TimeZone() As String
Select Case UCase(state)
Case "NY"
TimeZone = "EST"
Case "NJ"
TimeZone = "EST"
Case Else
TimeZone = "Unknown"
End Select
End Function
You should fill in the other 50 states with the results you want. To use this class, I made this code under a command button (but, you could do it however you want):
Private Sub Command1_Click()
'The index holds the amount of values you want to put in the array
Dim stinfo(3) As New clsStateTime
stinfo(0).state = "nj"
stinfo(1).state = "ny"
stinfo(2).state = "asdf"
MsgBox (stinfo(0).TimeZone)
MsgBox (stinfo(1).TimeZone)
MsgBox (stinfo(2).TimeZone)
End Sub
Just as a note, the index is the number in between the ()!
Dani, notice how I Dim'ed it with a (2), but I used 3 "slots" in the array? Thats another VB difference :-P. Oh yeah, we don't dim vars with the type first either :-P.

Frequently Asked Questions About Library Research
- How can I identify journal articles related to my topic?
- Beloit College Library subscribes to many article databases, and they're linked from the Article Indexes and Electronic Journals web page.
- Some article databases have broad topic coverage, such as Academic Search Premier and Expanded Academic ASAP.
- Some article databases cover specific subject areas, such as Art Source, BioOne and Philosopher's Index.
- Databases also vary as far as the publication dates that are covered. Many cover the most recent twenty years or so. Some have coverage stretching back much further, such as the New York Times Historical database (back to 1851) and JSTOR.
- Will I be able to get entire articles in the databases?
- Some databases include the full articles. Examples are Lexis-Nexis news search for newspaper articles, PsycARTICLES in psychology, and AnthroSource in anthropology.
- Many databases have a combination of full articles and citations only. Examples are Academic Search Premier and Expanded Academic ASAP.
- In some databases, you can limit your search to documents with full text available. See the limit options in Expanded Academic ASAP and Medline (a medical journals database) for example.
- An example of an article database that has some free content from science journals is HighWire Press.
- If an article isn't available online, how can I get it?
- Articles at Beloit College Library
- The way to tell which articles (identified in library databases) are available through Beloit College Library subscription is to click on "Find It at Beloit" Here you'll be linked to the full text if available, the library catalog if held by the library, or an interlibrary loan request form.
There are two ways to tell which articles (identified from any source) are available through Beloit College Library subscription:
1. Select Find Electronic Journals by Title and enter the magazine or journal title.
2. Search for the periodical title in the library catalog. Here you'll see which periodical titles are in the library, which dates are available, and the location of our holdings.
- Print holdings in the periodicals collection are located on the main level (current issues) or on the lower level (back issues).
- Online subscriptions show "internet" holdings. Follow the URL near the bottom of the catalog entry.
Remember to search for the journal title, sometimes called "source" of the article, NOT the title of the specific article.
- Articles not at Beloit College Library
- You can request articles that aren't at Beloit through interlibrary loan. Most articles arrive within 7-10 days, but some can take longer.
From the FindIt window, click on "Go" after Request via Interlibrary Loan.
- In the FirstSearch database Medline, you can click on the ILL button to request the item via interlibrary loan. Fill in the information about yourself, and click on the Submit button.
- Another way to request an article is to submit an interlibrary loan article request form.
- How do I search for books and audio-visual materials within the Beloit College library?
- Search the library catalog for books and AV materials at Beloit College library.
- The "words or phrase" search is the easiest to use unless you know a particular author, title, or subject heading. Note subject headings of items retrieved to extend your search.
- How can I identify books at other libraries?
- WorldCat is a comprehensive catalog of books and audio-visual materials at libraries around the world.
- In WorldCat, the list of items retrieved is generally sorted with the most frequently held items at the top of the list, going to the more obscure items at the bottom. You can request interlibrary loan delivery by clicking on the ILL button, filling in the form, and clicking on Submit. Allow about 10 to 15 days for books to arrive via interlibrary loan. You can also request audio-visual items, but these are more difficult to obtain because of lending restrictions at many libraries.
- How can I check out items at UW-Madison Libraries directly?
- You can search MadCat to see which items are available at the UW-Madison Libraries.
- In order to borrow items at UW-Madison libraries directly, you first need to get a form letter filled out by staff at the Beloit College Library Reference Desk. This letter vouches for your Beloit student status. When you take a completed form letter to UW-Madison's Memorial Library card application desk (see hours), along with two forms of ID, their library will issue you a borrower's card good for the current academic year.
- What other ways can I identify and obtain resources?
- Beloit College Library reference staff are available most hours the library is open. It's our job to help students find resources, and we like doing it! Feel free to ask questions, whether broad or specific. The Reference Desk phone number is 363-2544.
- Also, remember that one or two sources lead to others when you take into account the bibliographies and works cited in them. If you'd like help navigating bibliographies, ask at the Reference Desk.
- Items identified in various sources can be searched in the library catalog to see if they're at Beloit College Library. If they're not, you can submit an interlibrary loan article request form or an interlibrary loan book request form.
- How do I cite my sources?
- Consult the library web page Tips on Doing Searches, Citing Sources This page includes links to examples of citation styles and further links to research and writing sites.

What a weekend
November 13, 2009 - John Mehno
Has it ever been this good in the nine football seasons played at Heinz Field?
Notre Dame visits to take on Pitt at 8 o'clock on Saturday night. Then the maintenance crew will work all night to sweep up and get ready for the Cincinnati Bengals and Steelers at 1 o'clock on Sunday afternoon. You wouldn't expect a midseason visit from the Bengals to have playoff implications for both teams, but this does.
I can't help you with tickets to either, but I can offer this advice: Hustle over to Sheetz, load up on snacks and drinks, and get a comfortable seat in front of the TV. Should be two really good football games in less than 24 hours, coincidentally from the same venue.
The good news is there's no rain in the forecast so the Heinz Field turf, which is starting to show its November tatters, should be OK for both games. I like the home team in both games, but I don't recommend you invest in that.

Zoos Should Be Abolished

Within a century they will be the only places you can see certain wild animals. If we can't keep the natural populations alive, the least humanity can do is keep a token stock in captivity for posterity.
I suppose an argument against zoos - at least the old-fashioned London Zoo types - is that it is cruel to the animals to put them in cages. But even setting aside the above point (whereby even being imprisoned is better than death), that is no longer the case with many zoos. The animals are well-treated, have plenty of space and are kept in an environment designed to imitate their natural habitat as closely as possible.
Many zoos have an important part to play in the conservation and breeding of endangered species, they also educate visitors by allowing them to see such great animals they otherwise would not be able to and, perhaps more importantly, allow people see these amazing creatures which could be lost without action - encouraging many to support causes which try to protect these animals in their natural environments.
Many zoos are invovled in conservation projects with series of other zoos to ensure the best chance of survival of all species on the planets.
Some speices which can pretty much own their current existence to zoos include the Père David's Deer and Przewalski's Horse.
There's also the fact that if you abolish all zoos today, what do you do with the animals that are currently there? Most of them can no longer survive in the wild...
Meh, some animals should not be in zoos. Others live well and happily. I think there are enough restrictions available to maintain a good medium.
More national parks.
Keeps n will keep endangered animals from complete extinction.
they Should try to really duplicate natural habitat, but money comes into it, so they cant.
Societies Fault

More national parks.
They're great tourist attractions and help the local economy?
People are destroying natural habitats too... sooo need to make artificial ones?

Save more natural environments?
Where would have these nationla parks? UK? Elsewhere?
How would they save endangered species? How would they encourage increased breeding? They'd simply leave the animals alone in the national park to live by themselves and not encourage their numbers to grow into other areas.
I meant more national parks in foreign countries where the animals came from. So they can have alife of their own but can be kept a watch on etc.
We should concentrate on conserving the animals' natural environments. While there are conservation arguments for keeping animals in captivity, in the end it's not natural. While the animals may be cared for well, I still believe that it's not right to keep them in captivity. I don't agree with keeping animals in zoos purely so we can enjoy seeing them.

Monkeys, lizards, llamas etc are ok in zoos. Essentially the animals under "prey" do well whereas the predators don't.
I think Zoos are fine as long as the well being of the animals comes before profit/entertainment.
Zoos have an important role in informing the public about wildife, saving endangered species etc.
The original victorian idea of a zoo being some sort of museum with live animals that you can make money out of, i find very distastefull.
They make life too easy for bestialists.
Do your own damn homework, use google if you must.
Asking for reasons is not debating nor discussing
Traditional caged zoos yes, wildlife parks, no.

Miami, Fl – Planet Platypus – Our very own Bobby Mac was on location at The Inaugural X-Run Event is the World's FIRST adult-themed obstacle course and mud run which took place this past Saturday May 31st at Historic Virginia Key Beach Park sponsored by Playboy TV and hosted by Playboy TV's Mike & Holli with celebrity guest Ash Armand, star of Showtime hit series Gigolos, as well as leading sexologist and bestselling author Dr. Jess O'Reilly who's recent books include "Hot Sex Tips, Licks and Tricks" and "The New Sex Bible". The 5k run and fitness event was created by Founder and CEO Kelly Perez who is also the Owner and President of SensualSteals.com.
Hundreds of people turned out in mass at the park located at 4020 Virginia Beach Drive in Miami Florida located off the Rickenbacker Causeway, all geared up to compete in the 5k adult themed obstacle course both as individual competitors as well as teams while they tackled 14 sexy and suggestively themed obstacles such as the Dominatrix Dungeon, the Blue Balls Dash, The Sphincter Slide, and The Penis Tunnel while wearing outfits ranging from workout gear, sultry and naughty costumes, and team spirit t-shirts ready to sweat it out under the Florida sun to benefit and support various sex-positive based organizations. A portion of the proceeds of the event itself are being donated to www.clitoraid.org, which is an organization that campaigns against female genital mutilation.
This incredible event was backed by some of the adult industry's biggest names who were on location here in South Florida including Playboy TV, Bang Bros, Juicy Ads, StorErotica, Swing Lifestyle, Wasteland, Wet, Fitness Swingers, Trapeze, Shock Top Beer, Adults Only Resorts, and so many others. To see complete list of sponsors, please visit – The X-RUN SITE HERE !!
On hand to entertain the masses were some absolutely fantastic acts which included Pole Champ Katie Sutra, Dj Legacy, Feature Entertainers Luna Star, Misty Stone, and several of Miami's most seductive Burlesque showgirls and much more.
The only small snag was the X-Run's custom created BOOB WALL obstacle which unfortunately fell victim to a shipment delay and was held up in Hong Kong, but never fear, the X-Run and the BOOB WALL will be up and running in another location possibly as soon as next month in California and several more locations and dates yet to be announced !
The X-Run Official After Party was held at Passion Nightclub at The Hard Rock Fort Lauderdale and was hosted by Feature Entertainers Luna Star and Misty Stone.
