This stock has great potential !!! Techs are out,
medical supplies are in . If you want a positive return
on your investment, I'd recommend BDX now , BEFORE
the restructuring begins.The time is right and as you
know my friends, timing is everything !!!
Luck to all BDX investors !!!
I have less respect for MEL's board regulars than
they have for me. I assume you are also a MEL
shareholder. I'll be brief in my response, as this is off
topic, but I believe (no offense) that the MEL posters
behave as a childish Pennsylvania clique (most are PA
residents --though PA is not to blame...) I also believe
that most are Mellon employees who find it impossible
to be objective about the firm and its CEO, and who
spend their time posting the most unbelievable trivia,
which I largely ignore, but sometimes it gets on my
nerves and I'm afraid I did some heavyhanded venting in
my last post --hence their dissatisfaction with
yours truly.
I'm not a speculator and continue
to be a longterm MEL investor, but I felt --and
still feel-- that MEL's board is dominated by Frank
Cahouet and that ego played a large role in Mr. Cahouet's
dismissive and unceremonious rejection of BK's merger
Enough of MEL on the BDX board. On a lighter note, I'm
very pleased that the old dynamic BDX is back and that
a split may be around the corner. I hope the next
earnings release won't disappoint or we'll drop back to
Take care and happy investing in MEL and BDX.
So why is it that they show you zero respect on MEL board. You definitely qualify as the "Unwanted visitor award winner"
I think you should apply for Clateo's job!
First, I hope that you mean Net Revenue vs Gross
Profit. GP has been over 10 % for a number of years,
because as you have mentioned, they have reduced
costs.But again, mgmt has stated that for BDX to be a great
company, they must grow revenue, not gp over 10%. Again,
look at Q1 and Q2 performance w/o FX impact over 10%
w/o Ohmeda.The biggest question you should ask is, do
you believe that BDX has a PE ratio over 30? If so,
buy, if not then sell.And as far as acquistions
doubling net revenue, not going to happen unless BDX pools
with another company. Again, if BDX grows revenue at
10% average over 5 years, they are more then 75%
there. But then ask this question, is 10% sales growth
really good or just ok?I guess we will see.
You seem to be confused
between gross revenue and net revenue.
BDX has in fact
only been able to increase the gross revenue at a 5%
clip over the last few years and grow the net revenue
at about 13%. That tells you one thing....cost
Now that BDX has releazied that they have squeezed as
much profit as they can from their existing products,
they have begun to aquire other companies that have
growth potential. BDX feels that these companies can
grow these companies with more effecient manufacturing
processes and better distribution channels. Make no doubt
about it, the aquisitions will be the driving force in
doubling GROSS revenues by 2002.
In the most recent
quaterly report, you should note that Gonna Win is right
when he mentions the companies strategy.
As far
as the restructuring charge, you'll recall that the
Street reacted very positively the day that it was
announced (stock rose 2 points). That charge is already
factored into the price! I too, am hearing that BDX
business has never been better! Good luck all, and please
continue to keep us posted Gonna Win!
Gonna Win, I'm in pins and needles over your
predictions. I hope they come to pass. I'm beginning to feel
good again about BDX after a long bearish phase, and
if in spite of the restructuring charge earnings
come in strong I think the stock will break into the
80's. And once the stock begins to trade in the 80s-90s
a split would be very likely.
Where have you seen this documentation?If you go
back and review BDX public statemtents, they are
always talking about double digit net revenue growth. In
fact, this year has been double digit growth without
Ohmeda. Also, 10% sales growth is conservative.However,
you mention a blowout quarter. Just remember that BDX
is going to be taking a restructure charge, so keep
this in mind when you look at the bottom line.BDX is a
good company, but $85. I hope your right, but I am not
going to hold my breath.
There's a problem with your plan. You see, BDX
has only been able to grow current sales revenue at
about 5-6% annually for the last 7 years now. What
makes you think they can increase that to 10% each of
the next five years?
The plan laid out is not
my own. It has been well documented that this is how
BDX will achieve doubling revenue.
As far as
improving thge bottom line, there are many cost saving
programs in place at the company right now, allowing the
company to become much more effecient and therfore,
improving Return on Equity!
Also, look for a blowout
quarter. This is the first quarter that will include
revenues from the Ohmeda aquisition!
IMHO the stock
gets to $85 after the next earnings report and splits
sometime around October.
�GONNA_WIN- I think that you are slightly off
with your story...Try this one for size.Double your
revenue as follows:1997 Revenue= 2,8005 year plan. Grow
your revenue at 10% for 5 years will bring revenues to
4,500.Acquistions = 600-700 New Products over 5 years =
400-500.Done. Thats how you do it. Therefore, lets not make
this into the greatest thing since white bread. Most
"Good" companies have already done this. What will make
BD special if they can keep operating expenses at
about the same level they are today which will make the
bottom line really good. Remember, due to acquistions,
very little if any stock repurchases, so EPS will grow
equal to net income. This is going to be a change over
the last few years.
currently bdx is in the midst of a major
restructuring plan involving all divisions , there has been
announcements at these locations describing 2x growth. Please
be patient and watch clateo work his magic.
clateo has already announced a hand picked successor in
the event he is unable to fulfill his term.
Transformation will thrive

This place has long outlived its value. Rolls are puny. The service is unbelievably poor. Just because they have no other sushi places to compete with is no reason to stay alive.

Skip to comments.Cat lovers, Veterinarians -- help
Posted on 10/23/2011 8:46:56 PM PDT by MacMattico
We have a fenced in yard and I let my dog out. Minutes later I heard barking like crazy and my dog was acting weird. I went out with a flashlight and he had a cat on it's back and the cat had scratched my dog below both eyes and he was bleeding, so there was definitely some fighting going on. My husband took the dog in and cleaned up his wounds and I went to check on the cat. We've never seen this cat in the neighborhood before and it's a huge cat. At first it just hissed at me but after a half an hour it calmed down and let me pet it's head. I had work gloves on because I didn't want to get bit. Soon it let me check all of it's legs, stomach, back, head, and it moved a few steps and laid back down. It doesn't seem to be in any pain and had only dog drool on it-- which is the only thing my dog ever gets on our own cat-- drool from playing with it-- never has he injured it. The cat seems to be in no pain and like I said I can feel no injuries. It's responsive to movement, has moved itself but only about 10 feet walking normally, and now just seems to lay there watching me. Could it just be in shock? Going to have kittens? I picked it up and put it in a blanket where it is now laying in a box on the front porch. I called the emergency vet and it's $150 just to see the cat, husband says I shouldn't "waste" the money because it's not in pain, has no collar, and what will happen will happen. It doesn't really look mangy but a little dirty from wrestling with my dog in the landscaping. It's acting friendlier to me then my own cat! But still just laying there....
It is your dog that you should worry about. Cat bits and scratches are highly infectious (Especially in humans, if you are bit go to the er, you will not be able to clean it on your own and you need to be on meds now, do not delay)
I hope all goes well and the cat is okay.
I think the cat is basking in the glory of whipping your dog in his own yard. We have a neighbor cat like that.
I don't think you need to worry about the cat.
Sounds like it is sick. It may be worth the money to know if you and your dog may be exposed to rabies.
Worry about the dog. Got bit by a cat and had to have a shot in my butt because the bite went septic in a day. Cat may be internally injured our broken ribs. Either way,$
You question if the cat were going to have kittens. Does it appear to be pregnant?
Well, I have had cats and dogs (some at the same time). I can tell you that a cat won't attack a dog. It would have to be pretty sick. I can also tell you that a dog is no match for an adult cat if it hasn't been DE-clawed.
Thanks. I'm fine, the dog seems to have two slight scratches, one below each eye and one bled a tiny bit, which we immediately cleaned. I hope there's no infection.
There's nothing wrong with the cat. It won the fight, it knows it and it likes people.
I don't think so, but it is a HUGE cat with tons of fur, I didn't feel anything moving in it's lower regions and haven't found any nipples, but it's either pregnant or ate another cat!
If you have one of those cones and some anti bacterial ointment, you could put just a tiny dab on your finger tip and put some on the scratches and then use the cone to prevent your dog from wiping it off.
As for the cat it sounds like it is ok and not in need of an emergency vet visit. I'm think it came across the dog by accident and got scared.
FRiend, I do believe that you've just been adopted.
P.S. It might help if you posted pix.
A coyote will even eat the meow put of a cat.
Clean your dog's wounds thoroughly..really!
Sounds like the kitty may be lost..put a bowl of water nearby.
Cats sometimes try to hide symptoms. I'd be worried because of the lack of movement, which is not typical of cats.
Well, a big cat normally means a well fed one. He may have a family nearby. Cats will hide their hurts really well. If he refuses food and water, then he may be hurt.
Sounds like you may have just been claimed by a cat. They do that. Best thing to do is to submit. LOL
My Cat must have missed that memo. Though he doesn't cause any damage, he will often pounce on our dog just to annoy him, or sneak up on him and give him a good swat with the paw.
It might be just basking in the glory. It's still not going anywhere but I brought it some food and water and it took a little, with a look of "It's about time." But I've never had a cat I've never seen before be so responsive and friendly yet just lay there. My cat is practically tearing the front door down trying to get out to the porch where the other one is!
hopefully this isn't your "cat"
hopefully this isn't your "cat"
I'm thinking the whole bit about cat bites being super infectious is a myth. Does anyone know the real story on this?
We had a huge Siamese cat that killed a German Shepheard. My folks said the cat went to live on a ranch.
Got worse, got him to the vet, got antibiotic pills, couldn't get them down him, got him to take them in his food. So he got better. I had him neutered and watch him pretty closely now because there's a couple strays I feed outside, and they have standoffs but no fighting.
I guess I wouldn't want to take a stray cat to those weekend ER's (I've done that with a couple of mine) but if it's still there tomorrow or keep it in the garage or something, take it to a cheaper vet. One of my last trips to the vet was to the cheapest one where you wait your turn. Somebody brought a little dog in that had gotten in a big dog's yard. The little one got back under the fence, and the man was holding it in a blanket. The dog got very quiet. My turn was and the vet came out and I said you'd better take that little dog.
She did, shut the door (usually didn't), got very quiet in there. Pretty soon he came out with a dead dog in a box. The vet came out crying. Internal injuries. It was awful to see. Guy leaves, pretty soon wife somes and starts yelling at the vet. Said that dog was alert before. I don't know if delay in treatment would have made a difference. I don't think there was much that could be done for the little thing.
Apart from scratches that could get infected and spread through his body your dog should be fine. Unusual for the cat to hang around though.
Sad. Just doing what critters do. I've seen a dog take out a cat with one chomp. Your dog must be small or nice not to do the same, claws or no claws.
I can see my husbands eyes rolling tomorrow when he finds out we have a new cat!
I don't know how to post pictures!
Lucky you, Sounds like a Maine Coon Cat. Very good breed.
If the cat is pregnant, you can feel little bumps in the tummy. (If she is far enough along)
Something doesn't sound right here.
Even a very gentle cat would not just lay around after a fight with a dog. It could be hurt internally.
Not only serious risk of bacterial infection, is the dog absolutely current on rabies shots?
Neighbor was a chiro, not a vet. They get lots of meds now though.
Not true of every cat. My parents had a big bruiser of a tom cat. Very friendly to people, but it would go nuts if it saw a dog or another tom cat it its yard - and its yard was quite a bit larger than what the county surveyor said my parent's yard was.
You would need to upload the pictures to a server like photobucket, then go from there.
If it is a huge cat, and it acts very laid back, almost dog like, it is probably a Maine Coon cat.
They are very mellow cats.
Ha! No, but when I heard the dog barking the way he was all I could think of was oh no, a skunk!
Sounds like our younger cat of the two (he's 5.) About three years ago he just showed up on the deck and acted exactly as you describe your new friend. He's been here ever since. He stared the dog and the older cat down for a week and now you'd think all three had grown up together.
I was thinking Maine Coon, too. Very pretty cats.
No myth.
Their claws also carry a whole host of bacteria.
Yes. Current on everything, because said dog that looks like a black wolf finds a way to get into everything!
If it is from a cat fight, the fur hides the wounds and only discovered when pus is observed..the puncture wounds close quickly and infection develops quickly..I have had 2 huge vet bills over infection..wound cleanout surgery.One was shockingly horrible..many stitches.
I now have house cats..I get an occasional nip when combing tangles out of my long haired kitty..I clean the wound with much dedication and put antibiotic ointment on it.
My son puts cat food out on his front porch for the cats and he has one of those come and eat with the cats.
*If* you keep the cat, make sure to quarantine it and observe it for 10 days, just to be safe.
I just went through the post-exposure shot series because of "savage rabid coons" who attacked my dogs but were quite "calm and nonplussed" towards me.
Even though I didn't get bit, their saliva was all over my dogs and my hands.
The doc gave me the "better safe than dead" diagnosis.
It is NOT fun.
First, get yourself a coonhound, they will take care of any stray cats roaming around, or anything else for that matter.
Second, get your dog looked at, he could have some serious injuries.
Third, if you're that worried about the cat and it's $150 to look at... well even an expensive shotgun shell is only $1 (the good stuff 00 Buck).
No it is not a myth. I had my own cat scratch me and the next day I had a red streak going up my arm. Blood poisoning. Went to doctor and got antibiotics. Same thing happened to my son.
"I clean the wound with much dedication and put antibiotic ointment on it."
I clean those wounds with 50% hydrogen peroxide. I do not get infections from such scratchs, bites.
On the shot gun shell remark... Are you my brother disguised under a screen name?! ;)
Neither do I..
I use hydrogen peroxide, too if it is deep.

Fatty aldehyde
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A fatty aldehyde is an aldehyde with a "fatty" aliphatic carbon chain attached that is typically eight carbon or more in length. In contrast, phenolic aldehydes are aromatic.
Straight chain, saturated aldehydes include: octanal (C8), nonanal (C9), decanal (C10), undecanal (C11), dodecanal (C12), tridecanal (C13), tetradecanal (C14), pentadecanal (C15), hexadecanal (C16), octadecanal (C18), icosanal (C20), docosanal (C22), etc. Chains may also be unsaturated, or branched.
Many are naturally occurring substances in nature.
Fatty aldehydes are broken down in the body by fatty aldehyde dehydrogenases.
Many are fragrance or flavouring substances, most famously used in Chanel No. 5, which contains large proportion of the substance 2-methylundecanal.

1. Choose the wrong sanding tool:
The sanding machine now becomes the absolutely supportive tool for your woodworking. They not only help you save an amount of time but also create the perfect finishing surface. By the way, the wrong sander can ruin all your effort faster than ever. And it's totally the big mistake that any woodworkers can make, even the pro. So, in case you wondering how to find the appropriate sander, we have some tips:
+ With the large and flat surface, the big size of sander can deal easier than the small one. The belt sander is the great one in this case. Because it works as the powerful performance so your work can be done quicker. Before buying belt sander for your projects, remember to read this best belt sander reviews 2015 to update last information.
+ For sanding the special wood shape such as curves or contours, using the random orbital or orbital sander provides the perfect result than another sanding machine. The easy to use and low speed prevent damaging your wood furniture.
2. Picking incorrect sandpaper:
Beside the sander, sandpaper is the next important point that you have to choose carefully. By understanding about each type of sandpaper and their usage, you'll pick the suitable one faster. The right sandpaper helps you gain the efficiency without waste much paper.
3. Use the inappropriate grit:
Picking the wrong grit is the most common mistake you usually make while sanding even though this is an essential feature. The high grit gives the deeper abrasive. And for wood sanding, we recommend the 100-120 grit for the enough aggressive instead of too much grit.
4. Apply wrong sanding techniques:
The purpose of sanding removes the mill mark and wood blemish. But if you apply the wrong sanding techniques, the flaws appear more clearly even worst. The best way to get the smooth surface is sand at the wood grain direction and avoid gauges.
5. Forgot safety rules:
The most dangerous thing can harm you is pass the safety rule. Not only with sander but any electric machine can make you hurt in second if careless. Here some simple things that we said again and again anytime using electrical tool:
+ Remove the dust by using cloth or dust collector can save your healthy body and keep the work more efficient.
+ Don't forget to wear the safety clothes to protect you from damage.
+ Ensure you keep your skin out of the abrasive part.

OSHA News Release - (Archived) Table of Contents
OSHA News Release – Region 6
U.S. Department of Labor
Region 6 News Release: USDL-OSHA-98-94-11-10
Tuesday, November 10, 1998
Contact: Diana Petterson or Beverly Sepulveda, (214) 767-4776, ext. 222 or 221
The federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has cited Surlean Meat Co. of San Antonio, a subsidiary of L&H Packing Co., for alleged safety and health violations with proposed penalties of $62,000, announced the U.S. Department of Labor.
The OSHA programmmed planned inspection conducted in September found that employees were subjected to sound levels exceeding the required 85 decibel level and were not provided with audiometric testing to determine the amount of hearing loss. Most of the work areas tested by OSHA exceeded the 85 decibels and in some instances were as high as 96 decibels.
"Annual hearing tests for employees in work environments subject to high levels of occupational noise are required by law," said Paul Brantley, OSHA area director in Austin. "This employer has chosen not to test any of his employees. It is quite possible that a number of these employees have suffered permanent hearing loss, but without the test a proper assessment cannot be made."
The company was cited for six serious violations of safety and health standards, one willful violation, and three other-than-serious violations.
The willful violation was for failure to establish and maintain an audiometric testing program. A willful violation is defined as an intentional disregard of or plain indifference to the requirements of the Occupational Safety and Health Acts.
The six serious violations were for failure to provide proper personal protective equipment (PPE) for employees working with battery acid; machine guarding was not provided; compressed air used for cleaning purposes was not reduced; floor holes were not guarded; employees were subject to sound levels exceeding standards; and danger signs were not posted.
A serious violation is one in which there is a substantial probability that death or serious physical harm could result and the employer knew or should have known of the hazard.
Surlean has 15 days from the receipt of the citations to either comply or to contest the citations before the independent Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission.

Why does my iPhone keep dropping Instagram, and how do I fix it? [more inside]
Help me restore app data (only) to a clean iPhone 5S running iOS 7.1
After a complicated chain of circumstances involving a SIM migration, a grandfathered prepaid data plan that transferred from an iPhone 3G to a 4 to the current 5S, and many hours (no exaggeration) at the AT&T store while their employees talked to level 2 tech support, I was left with:
- A working iPhone 5S on AT&T, now getting LTE data but restored to factory settings.
- A recent encrypted backup from the phone, just before the wipe.
Best way to store iPhone videos on Flickr?
I need help with getting my iPhone videos (home videos, all 2 minutes or less) to upload to Flickr - ideally using their app, but open to other ways as well. Why can't I do it? [more inside]

Can I mirror iPhone camera output - without the controls?
Hi - in a pinch, I need to use my iPhone to feed live video to a projector. I have a VGA adapter, so I can mirror my camera, but I can't feed "clean" video without all the on-screen camera controls, etc. I feel like the answer is easy, but I'm flummoxed. Is there an app or way to get just plain camera output without the controls? thanks!
Getting my work and personal schedules in sync, with technology.
How can I better organize my schedule through better use of my work and personal calendars across platforms? My primary calendar at work is through Outlook/Exchange, but for personal correspondence I use gmail/google calendar, mostly accessed through my iphone or a browser on my mac. Right now I am just inviting Work Email Address Me and Personal Email Address Me to events (like meeting invitees) but perhaps there is a better way. Suggestions of articles/resources to help me figure this out also welcome! [more inside]
iPhone question: silencing all media except one app?
I like to listen to my white noise app on my iPhone while I work, but the alerts from email, texts, etc. disrupt my zen zone. Is there a way to silence my phone, text alert, and email alerts (basically everything except this app) without having to go to Settings and set each one's ringtone to "None?" Thanks!

I'm looking for a bluetooth button. No features. Just. A. Button.
So I used WAZE for my morning commute on my iPhone. It's on my dash and out of easy reach. But sometimes I get an idea for a thing I need to do when I get to the office. Or a text I need to send. So I have to stretch and reach over for the iPhone button to hold it down and dictate it to Siri. Then I thought: What if I just had a button. On me. So that's what I'm looking for. A button I can have close to me that I can press to activate the same function on the iPhone. Not a headset. Or a speakerphone. My car's functionality there works great. Just a button to trigger the thing that's a foot out of easy reach. Now It'd be great if it was like a pin on and didn't look awful so it could be semi decorative. But frankly even if it was big and ugly and I could mount it on the wheel that would work too. So...anyone know any straight button options?
Help make my iphone 5s messaging not horrible?
A convoluted story about failing to get an iPhone 5S to successfully do all messaging over SMS/MMS rather than iMessage. I would like a way to keep my cellular network turned off, but still be able to send and receive messages without constant errors. [more inside]

Diagnose my iPhone
Text messaging consistently does not work on my phone (iPhone 4s, AT&T). 2 failure modes: 1) The blue "Sending" bar does not go all the way to complete in iMessage 2) I'll send a text successfully, and the other person will text me back right away, but I won't receive their reply. When I do get their reply, however, it'll say the correct timestamp (from when they sent it, which is often hours earlier.) This always happens with some people and never with others. It happens to both iMessage and regular texts. I'm wondering whether to take it to the Apple store, the AT&T store, to do a factory reset, or to fiddle with some other settings. Has anyone else encountered this and been able to fix it?

Clay-signal For IPhone?
I need an app for the IPhone that will allow my partner to press a single button to send me a pre-written text message or pre-determined photo. This will be a sort of personalized Bat Signal (we'll call it "The Clay Signal") and will let me know that she needs my attention. [more inside]
Is there an app for that?
I'm interested in the DURR, a simple display-less "watch" that vibrates every 5 minutes to influence your perception of the passing of time. Since DURR is not currently shipping and I already own an iPhone with a clock and a vibrating buzzer, I feel like this should be doable with an app. There's already a Pebble app so I'm sure it's not crazy. If this doesn't currently exist, how hard might it be to write one myself? I've compiled things in XCode before but not written my own from-scratch Objective-C, so I'd be approaching this as a newcomer.

Voice and Text from one number on an iPhone or a Mac?
I want one phone number to use for talk and text, and I want to be able to send and receive texts on my iPhone or from my Mac without using a browser or a second phone number. Currently, Google Voice does this, but it looks like Google is merging Google Voice into Hangouts this spring, and 3rd party apps will no longer work. GAH! I love being able to send and receive texts for my real number on my Mac (I use GrowlVoice). I'm currently on AT&T for my iPhone, but I'm more than willing to switch to another carrier. What are my options?
iPhones in Europe/Israel. Talk to me like I'm sloooooow. Please.
I'm so overwhelmed by the information I get when I go online… can someone give me the for-dummies explanation here -- tell me what to do and exactly how? I need to be told how to use either an iPhone 5S or a 4s, in Italy and Israel, to be able to make/get local calls and texts, and access interactive maps, without incurring surprise fees.

Does this exist
My latest annoyance is that this used iPhone 4s that I bought has the headphone jack on the top. This makes getting it in and out of my jacket pocket and holding it annoying for me. And I can't just turn the phone upside down like an iPad does. Is there such thing as a case that either replicates the headphone jack on the bottom, or has its own built-in headphones originating from the bottom? I found this one but the headphone cord still comes out of the top. Alternatively, recommendations for bluetooth headphones that have comparable good battery life and sound quality to the plugged-in kind.
Advanced methods for Hotmail password recovery/reset?
My dad had his computer reformatted and now he doesn't remember his Hotmail password because it used to be saved in his browser. We tried to recover the account by going into the "Can't access your account?" section, but we were unsuccessful. He can still access his emails via the Mail app on his iPhone. [more inside]

Best way to present an iPhone app functionality in a presentation
For my job I need to make a short video that graphically illustrates an iPhone app and its functionality. Are there any tools or sites out there that can let me do this as nicely as possible? I'm thinking of something similar to App.io except I need something more automated and presentable. Something like a Powerpoint presentation except for an app with text and animations/video.
Wireless Speakers, Piece by Piece
I'd really like to get some wireless speakers I could plug my ipod or iphone into in and have it play throughout the house. Money is tight at the moment, which got me thing that one way to do it would to buy speakers piecemeal. To start, get one speaker that is portable. As money comes along, add more speakers to it. But I am afraid I have no idea what to look for when looking at speakers. [more inside]
Headphone amp for Sennheiser 555s and mp3s--worthwhile?
I've been thinking about building this little Altoid tin headphone amp kit for listening with my Sennheiser 555s. Granted, the point of building the kit is, well, building the kit--but given the limitations of a (cheap) kit-built design and the fact that I listen exclusively to mp3s on my iPhone or Mac, will there be a perceptible improvement in sound from the cans? Is there more to the sound of my mp3s that I might not be hearing just driving the Sennheisers with the juice from the iPhone's or Mac's headphone jack that would merit stepping up the signal with the little amp?

Recommendations for Irish SIM card for American
I will be traveling to Dublin, Ireland frequently in the next 6 mos - year and I need to find an appropriate SIM vendor. I have done a ton of research but I am still hamstrung in terms of concrete advice. Here is what I know: I have unlocked my old iPhone 4 for this purpose. My husband and I have AT&T for our stateside smartphone service. My mother has Verizon (my preschooler will be with her). I will use the phone to call my husband and daughter nightly (probably two separate calls) and I will want some data coverage for navigation, texting, etc. I would prefer not to initiate any kind of contract until after the first trip. Any recommendations? TIA.
Moving to the UK from the US: How do we avoid buying new phones?

Best expensive iPhone games and apps?
Every year my boss gives me an iTunes gift card for Christmas, and I just got around to actually redeeming a few of them. Now I have $50 and need some suggestions for how to spend it. I like to play games on my phone, but definitely stick to the free almost free varieties. I figure this is a good opportunity to sample something a little more... upscale? So, give me your recommendations for games and apps costing more than, say, $3.99, that are worth spending big money on. [more inside]

Is there a way to ditch the album cover view in Music app on my iphone?
This is simple. When my phone is in portrait modein the native music app, you get a useful player. But in landscape mode the screen turns into a collection of album covers to choose music. Which stinks. Any way to have the portrait usability in landscape mode?
Correct way to charge rechargeable devices (iPhone, laptop, toothbrush)?
I've just been told at the Apple store that it's a bad idea to keep the iPhone plugged into the power for long periods when fully charged, and that if possible I should really only charge it when it tells me to (ie. when the battery is almost dead). [more inside]
Turn-based games for both the iPhone & Kindle Fire
My mom and I have been playing Words With Friends lately (I have an iPhone 4S and she has a Kindle Fire). We want to find more games to play together that are turn-based, that work on both devices, and that are ideally free (or at least cheap). We like puzzles, word games and classic card/board games, and want something that won't feel too slow, as she only plays once per day. This has been much harder to Google than I expected, so I'm hoping to gather some recommendations.
Best prepaid plan for iPhone 4s?
I previously had an android phone and was doing the t-mobile unlimited talk/text/data for $50 a month. Now I have a used iPhone 4s. I've never used anything made by Apple before so I'm a bit confused. From some research, it appears that data network is different and doesn't support 4g the same way so the t-mobile thing I was doing may not be the best way to go? Anyway, does anyone know what is the best deal for a (preferably) prepaid talk/text/data plan for the iphone 4s? Thanks!
iPhone 4 versus iPhone 4s: antennas, maps, and iOS questions
I have a no-contract plan at Virgin Mobile USA, which I like because it is so cheap ($35/month for unlimited data and enough calling). The downside of cheap and no-contract is expensive phones. However, I just lost my Android phone and would like to switch back to iPhone. My options at Virgin are iPhone 4, for $200, iPhone 4s, for $314, or iPhone 5, for more than I want to pay really. How to decide? [more inside]

iPhone Replacement Screen Quality?
I dropped my iPhone 4S a couple weeks ago and broke the screen. Insert humorous anecdote here. Can anyone describe their experience with 3rd-party replacement glass versus "official" replacement screen glass? Bonus points for specific locations in suburban Boston where I could get this fixed on a while-you-wait basis, since I'll be in Boston-ish over the next few days. Thanks.
Purchase used iPhone on Amazon?
My iPhone was stolen and I need to purchase a new one. I am considering saving myself the hassle of a craigslist interaction by purchasing a used one through an Amazon retailer. Has anyone done this? Would you recommend it? Anything I should look for specifically besides carrier compatibility etc.?

Torchlight II Cheats
Just experienced a little problem using trainer 188.8.131.52.
I was at end of Act I against the Grand Regent with Unlimited Health / Mana and he also has Unlimited Health (not sure about Mana) or at least his regen capabilities were beyong any hope to defeat him.
I had to turn off Unlimited Health Off (I kept Mana On) in order to be able to beat him
I dunno if it's the same for the others Act's End Boss or just for this one or even random common enemies but it's the first time it happened.
It came as a hell of a surprise!
But I recall thinking I've killed him, continue exploring the cave (searching for the master key) and re-finding him ; so maybe it was almost killed and mega-regen in betwwen (but it's purely hypotetical)
And I was on highest difficulty and using an Outlander...ouch.
For the Bosses HP issue: Has anyone tired using the NUM * Weaken target option over the boss? That might be a way around the issue. Haven't seen the issue myself, so I've no idea if it'll work. But it's a suggestion.
It is, this is what I did to kill of these bosses myself, also playing an outlander.

So our man in Atlanta, Vaughn McClure, has this today from former New York Giants defensive end Osi Umenyiora. Osi says he'd like to keep playing football, and with his contract up and free agency two weeks away, I guess he felt it was time to make sure everybody knew that. He is 33 years old and hasn't been a full-time player for some time, but he's always been able to rush the passer and it's not crazy to think he might be able to contribute as a pass-rusher in the right situation.
Umenyiora also told Vaughn that, when it comes time for him to retire, he'd like to do so as a Giant:
"It was nearly a third of my life that I was there in New York, and I did a lot of good things there," Umenyiora said. "As a team, we won some Super Bowls. I was able to go to a couple of Pro Bowls and be like an All-Pro player over there. Unless I'm able to do that somewhere else -- which I don't know how likely that is -- then it would only make sense, whenever it is that I retire.
"I'm not going to play another 10 years. I'm not going to play another three years. Whenever it is that I retire, I think it would only make sense for me to do that as a Giant."
Now, that could be as simple as the Giants putting out a news release announcing Umenyiora's retirement once he decides to do it. Or it could mean Umenyiora returning to play a final season for the team. The former possibility is obviously far more likely than the latter, but with Umenyiora looking for work it's worth at least asking the question of whether the latter is possible at all.
The Giants are going to bring Jason Pierre-Paul back as one of their starting defensive ends, either on a long-term deal or as their franchise player. But on the other side, things are murkier. Mathias Kiwanuka is likely on his way out. Robert Ayers is coming off a season-ending pectoral injury. Damontre Moore is still only 22 and working on his maturity issues. Kerry Wynn, Jordan Stanton and guys like that are unproven. The Giants are almost certain to be looking for some sort of cheap help at that other defensive end spot, even if it's just another rotational player or two. Umenyiora, at this point in his career, would surely come cheap.
He'd also be reunited in New York with Steve Spagnuolo, who was defensive coordinator early in Umenyiora's Giants career and is back for a second tour of duty. That makes a Giants return even more appealing for Umenyiora, who had 13 sacks in 2007 under Spagnuolo and never had that many in a season again (averaging 7.3 per season since and topping out at 11.5 in 2012).
Can we rule this out? Of course not. They brought gimpy, broken-down Mario Manningham to camp last year and gave him a chance to win a job. If Umenyiora can't find work elsewhere, wants to play and would take a veteran minimum, non-guaranteed deal, sure, I could see the Giants bringing him to camp. Yes, he had his feuds with GM Jerry Reese, but Reese is no grudge-holder, and as the Spagnuolo hire shows, the Giants aren't afraid to reach back into their past glory years in hopes of a present-day boost.
I'd put the chances of a Giants-Umenyiora reunion somewhere under 50 percent, but I don't think they're super close to zero. Far stranger things have happened, and it may be worth a shot at the tail end of free agency to see what an old friend has left.

The employment relationship and how it is affected by business transfers in countries across Africa
Monday, July 25, 2016 08:50:11
Different African countries regulate the employment impact of business transfers differently. The key distinction across jurisdictions is whether or not there is an automatic transfer of employment with going concern transfers, and if there is, whether this applies in outsourcing situations as well. This is according to Chris Todd, partner and head of Bowman Gilfillan Africa Groups Employment & Benefits Practice. Todd was speaking at a seminar presenting a PanAfrican perspective on the employment consequences of mergers & acquisitions, held at Bowman Gilfillan Africa Groups Sandton offices last week.
Understanding the limits of freedom of expression in the context of social media use
Wednesday, June 08, 2016 16:25:00
It cannot be doubted that the right to freedom of expression plays an essential role in a democratic society as this right is instrumental in ensuring that views and opinions pertaining to government structures and political parties can be properly shared and received.
Contempt of court judgment highlights debate around efficacy of labour court strike interdicts
Friday, April 29, 2016 13:22:00
A recent judgment by the Labour Court of South Africa highlights the debate around the efficacy of court interdicts in prohibiting unlawful conduct in the context of strike action. In November last year, the trade union, South African Municipal Workers Union (SAMWU) and its members, who are employees of Pikitup, commenced unprotected strike action. Pikitup is owned by the City of Johannesburg (CoJ) and conducts the business of waste collection and disposal in the greater Johannesburg area and its surrounds.
The strike was unprotected and was accompanied by violence and intimidation by striking employees. On 24 November 2015, Pikitup successfully obtained an interim Labour Court order, inter alia, interdicting the strike, precluding employees for participating in such strike action and preventing employees from committing various acts of unlawful conduct aimed at interfering with Pikitups waste collection business.
New employer bears potentially unforeseen risk of review
Friday, March 11, 2016 10:50:00
Employers looking to acquire a business as a going concern need to be mindful of any existing labour disputes or arbitration awards in this business as these could pose serious risks to the success of the transaction.
Where a transaction amounts to a transfer of a business as a going concern, section 197 of the Labour Relations Act (LRA) provides that the employees involved in the transferring business become employees of the acquirer of the business. But more than this: section 197(5) of the LRA specifically provides that the new employer is bound by any arbitration award made against the old employer in respect of employees to be transferred to the new employer.
No man can serve two masters
Sunday, November 01, 2015 16:30:00
In the recent matter between Assign Services v the Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration (the CCMA) & Others, handed down on 8 September 2015, the Labour Court, considered, inter alia, the interpretation of the deeming provision contained in section 198A(3)(b) of the Labour Relations Act 66 of 1995 (the LRA).
Non-permanent employees afforded greater protection
Wednesday, July 01, 2015 13:44:00
The stricter regulation of atypical forms of employment were introduced with the Labour Relations Act (LRA) amendments on 1 January 2015 to include a number of provisions specifically aimed at giving labour-brocking employees, employees employed on fixed-term contacts, and part-time employees greater protection.
Labour Ministers view should be seen as warning
Wednesday, May 27, 2015 14:50:00
Recent comments by the Minister of Labour, Mildred Oliphant, criticising employers who were laying off workers after a three month contract after which they would be deemed permanent employees, should be seen as a warning to labour brokers and clients, since the liability and risks associated with circumvention of the Act are real, and are easily accessible to employees.
Fixed term employees - Stricter regulations
Tuesday, May 19, 2015 15:14:00
1 January 2015 saw the introduction of stricter regulation of a-typical forms of employment with the Labour Relations Act (LRA) amended to include a number of provisions specifically aimed at giving labour broking employees, employees employed on fixed term contracts, and part-time employees greater protection. Except for the amendment to s186(1)(b) of the LRA, which applies to all employees irrespective of their level of remuneration, the amendments only apply to employees on a-typical work arrangements who earn below the prescribed earnings threshold.
A Review of Labour Law in 2014 No Good News for Employers
Monday, February 23, 2015 14:11:00
2014 must rank as one of the worst years for employers in terms of developments in Labour Legislation and Labour Law. The ability to hire employees on a flexible basis was substantially diminished, the ability to outsource to save costs was reduced, hiring employees was made more difficult, the cost of employing employees was potentially substantially increased and firing employees became substantially more difficult and costly. If Labour flexibility and ease of hiring and firing are hallmarks of an attractive investment destination the legislature and courts did little to improve South Africas attractiveness. The Legislature passed a number of amendments to the Labour Relations Act (the LRA) to deal with what is termed atypical labour. The Legislature went further than merely curtailing abuses of atypical employment relationships.
Compensation in Unfair Discrimination Cases
Tuesday, October 28, 2014 14:03:00
In South African Airways (Pty) Ltd v GJJVV [2014] 8 BLLR 748 (LAC) an airline pilot, Van Vuuren, reached the retirement age of 60 on 5 August 2005. At the same time a collective agreement with the union was being negotiated in terms of which the retirement age would be increased to 63. Agreement on the increased retirement age of 63 was in fact reached on 19 August, but the collective agreement was only signed in November 2005. While the collective agreement was being finalised Van Vuuren was asked to remain at home on standby. When he resumed his duties in December 2005 he received a reduced salary that was lower than that of his younger colleagues who performed the same work.

Silk Chiffon Lame 02 Silver Turquoise

- Luster
- Tips & Tricks
- Care
Silk Chiffon Lame is a sheer, extremely shiny, very lightweight fabric most often used in eveningwear, and costuming. Although silk chiffon lame still has a beautiful soft drape, the metallic yarns that run through the weft of this fabric make it somewhat crisper than its plain chiffon cousin. Because of the stiffer nature of the metallic yarns, this fabric is ideal for volume - silk chiffon lame makes a big statement! This fabric is available in array of colors.

Where you can catch Oscar-nominated films in Milwaukee
Here's a guide to where, and whether, you can see this year's Oscar-nominated feature films in Milwaukee.
Marcus Theatres' Menomonee Falls and Ridge cinemas are showing all nine best-picture nominees in a package deal Saturday and Sunday, while AMC Mayfair Mall is showing four of the nine in a package on Saturday; the movies are included below, but check the theaters' websites for details.

'Malcolm and Teresa' has trouble finding heart of pair's connection
In early 1968, conservative British journalist Malcolm Muggeridge was asked to conduct a televised interview of an Albanian nun. He had never heard of her. The world did not yet know her. It soon would: Her name was Mother Teresa.
That's the setup in Cathal Gallagher's "Malcolm and Teresa," which is receiving its regional premiere at Christian-based Acacia Theatre Company in Mequon, in a production that opened Friday night under Elaine Rewolinski's direction. »Read Full Article
Neko Case's voice shines in an elegant, melancholy set
The human voice can be the most singularly beautiful musical instrument there is, but it's not hard to think of well-compensated pop singers who treat their instruments, or allow them to be treated, as if they were beside the point.
Neko Case is not among them. »Read Full Article(1)

"I believe happy girls are the prettiest girls"
We all have our beauty idols – individuals whose style we admire and whose looks inspire our own. While there are definitely many that fall into this category for me, one that stands out the most is Audrey Hepburn.
Audrey Hepburn is a beauty idol of mine for her classic and elegant (yet quirky!) look. She's just so timeless. Her thick, youthful brows were one of her most defining features, and really set the standard for a lot of the brow looks we see trending today. I also love the winged eyeliner and full lashes combination she wore so effortlessly. Just an all-around elegant and sophisticated look.
Who are your beauty idols?

LUBBOCK After seeing their dreams in the bi-district round of the playoffs last year, Randall volleyball player Tori Nolte said she and her teammates thought they had something to prove against Andrews in the same round this year.
The Lady Raiders proved it, but it took four games to do so as Randall prevailed 25-19, 25-15, 18-25, 25-14 Saturday afternoon at Lubbock Monterey High School.
Randall, now 21-13, the runner-up in District 3-4A, will now face El Paso Riverside in the area round of the playoffs at 6 p.m. Tuesday at Ector Junior High in Odessa. Andrews, the third-place team in District 4-4A, finished 15-17.
Last year, Randall ended up being shocked by Big Spring in the bidistrict round.
Oh, yes, it feels especially sweet after what happened last year, Nolte, a junior, said. Last year was not very good. Some people had their doubts about us winning that first playoff game. We knew we had to prove them wrong. It feels great, awesome, Im so excited.
The Lady Raiders were in control most of the way, until Andrews surprised by winning the third game. After that game, Randall head coach Heather Sternenberg encouraged her team to do better.
I just told them We cant mess around with a team like this. When youre in the playoffs, youve got to respect everybody, Sternenberg said. We didnt want to go five, so we raised our level of play.
Coach said You know you can beat them, Nolte said. We knew we had to step it up and get the lead back.
Randall responded by doing so, jumping out early and staying in control.
Nolte led Randall in kills with eight and also one dink and led a balanced Lady Raider attack. Ashlee Simpson had seven kills, two blocks and a dink and Britany Dunlap had seven kills, two dinks and one block.
As for Andrews, Nitra Woods had the most kills with nine. Teammate Ina McQueen had six.
Gerber leads as Lady Whitefaces advance
Amarillo Globe-News
SEMINOLE Hereford middle blocker Kali Gerber picked a perfect time to produce her best performance of the season.
Propelled by Gerbers season-high 16 kills and blocking presence at the net, the Lady Whitefaces ousted San Angelo Lake View from the Class 4A postseason with a 25-20, 25-13, 22-25, 25-11 bidistrict victory Saturday at Seminole High School.
Hereford (19-16) advances to the area round of the Region I-4A bracket where it will square off against El Paso High (16-7) at 7 p.m. Tuesday at UT-Permian Basin in Odessa. The Maidens (15-17) are eliminated.
Besides the senior Gerber, the Lady Whitefaces got additional offensive production from freshman Brittney Butler (12 kills), Jane Hays (seven kills) and Erin Charest (seven kills).
Hereford also used its effective serve to frustrate the Maidens. Hays, Staci Wilt and senior Sabrina Garcia each had two aces apiece.
In general, we passed pretty well, said Hereford head coach Brenda Kitten, whose squad vaulted to a 2-0 lead in the match. The biggest key was our blocking, though. We gave them a lot of problems there.

Thats good bro!
Replying to original Post.. McMachons death was apublicity stunt and part of the WWE story script.
It is true however that Chris Benoit & family are dead..
In well a tragedy,..
Reading many articles., so far we are lead to belive. He killed his wife on the Friday, his son saturday and them himself late sunday.
During which time texts were sent telling people his address.. (Which in my opinion he was asking for some kind of help)
Never-the-less they didnt check on the home till Monday which is where they discovered 3 dead bodies.
A very sad loss.. Proffesionally and Personally to friends & faimly..
RIP Benoit Family.
Thats good bro!

Skip to comments.Putin Continues To Carring Up Russian Troops To The Border With Ukraine
Posted on 03/08/2014 5:37:27 AM PST by Strategy
Putin continues to carring up russian troops to the border with Ukraine
(Excerpt) Read more at twitter.com ...
Carrying is time consuming and labor intensive. Trainning or trucckking would be more efficient.
I've never heard of "carring." What does that mean?
Only Twits know for sure.
no need to worry! our fearless leader is on the case,and will rush back to the situation room to discuss the matter with his premire defense team of Debbie ,Maxine, and Ed Schultz as soon as he returns from his Florida vacation!
I never knew the word 'car' was a verb? Instead of driving to the border I can 'car' myself, or I am "carring" myself to the border.
That's liable to get ya pulled over for suspected FrUI
Please excuse my stupidity but, "carring"?
Is that when all the frat-brothers grab a case of cheap beer, pile into a car and start driving around yelling at the local coeds?
Help, I be confused...
These folks are in real trouble and freepers make fun of spelling and linguistics. How sad is that?.
:: Nice wheels, Vlad. ::
Only if I get a photo of Vlad behind the wheel.
BTW, is that "Rover" build...Sterling garage vehicle?
This was probably tweeted by a "non English as a first language" person.
Ok Mr.Sensitive, just what the HELL am I supposed to do about the situation 7,000mi away on a Saturday morning ? ?
Why would you be impressed with Napoleon's wheels? He's a president.
3-wheels are nothing short of a "smart-car"! Tell Vlad to get back to me when he can navigate a proper 2-wheeler
BTW, Cletus is currently driving the equivalent of Prince's scooter to work everyday...
Just to guess, maybe he's talking about using cars to transport them?
Well lets see. Russia is massing troops on the boarder, a possibility exist a lot of people will die soon. So lets make fun of thier language skills.
"Carring" is the result of a google translation from Ukrainian to English. Stiahuvaty
You mean "Their".
Russia is massing troops on the boarder
You mean "Border".
Did you ever see Prince's movie? He could really ride that thing.
cheers d:^)
Sound familiar?
It would help to use real words if you want people to understand. "Carring"? I don't know what that means.
Russia went green, by God!
carring is like canning - get as many russkies in a vw beetle and drive to ukraine, see when you can vegetables you get as much as possible into the jar. so people whom speak little english think that carring is a plural of more than one person in a car or more than one car. just like Obama forgets his vowels in praising Arethrea Franklin
You mean 'a possibility exists'.
Cool wheels for a cool guy. Anybody who plays 0 for such a total chump deserves the benefit of the doubt in my books. :)
exactly what I was wondering..what is " carring"?
Goodness sakes, "auto fill in or correction" is creating new problems in communication! GRRRRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Should have moved Russians back to their own border the first day they invaded, but then again, a winning strategy is only being applied to cheat past and future election results here by community organizers. Ensuring freedom and liberty is not a priority.
This the the kind of mentality that got obama elected.
You are going ga ga over russian's equivalent of obama.
Different packaging.
If putin was a rapist, would you still be drooling over him?
"These folks are in real trouble and freepers make fun of spelling and linguistics. How sad is that?."
Words have meanings. Spelling matters in that. Playing games with language is how politicians have been able to screw with our rights for a hundred years.
So their!
Hopefully no FReeper really admires Putin.
But he is a fun figure to contrast with P_ssy Baraq who seems more interested in investigating the Tea Party than Muslim terrorists.
Posted to twitter by Euromaidan which means he favored the EU deal and participated in the uprising in Maidan Square.
"So their!"......I see what you did there....
"Carring" - a new Freeper meme is born. This is hugh and series.
If you will excuse me now, I have to go carring to the grocery store.
Thank you for the link (and explanation). The military convoys shown in the Youtube are quite troubling. They need our prayers.
It's even ready for the Obama Adminstration, as in "Clown Carring.":
Vlad is a f'n gangkster (/spelling tag exspecially for you) and now that you mention it I wouldn't be surprised to find out that he's a f'n rapist too. You did see the first episode of "The Americans", didn't you?
I gotta give the guy credit though, he knows what he's about and he's competent and he GAF about his country's strategic interests, particularly the warm-water port at Sevastopol - for starters.
Give him some theme music, maybe some rap guys to follow him around...
(Gather 'round everbody / Let me tell you 'bout Vlad / He the kind of President / That you wish that you had)
...some cool blingy wheels, made for the back country of Mother Russia...
...some cool threads topped off with those Ray-Ban aviator glasses like Khadaffi used to wear...
...a posse of some other neo-communists to be his yes-dudes...
...some fine Russian former Olympic athlete babes to be his squeeze of the month, each in her turn...
Yeah. Vlad be a cool guy and I'm happy to see him with a cool set of wheels. They look good on him.
(Lighten up some. We got a psycho gaymuslimmarxistcokehead running our government. You can cry or you can laugh.)
AHHH the famous red "RESET" button!
54 Chevy? Cool ride!
Thank you. :)
Call me crazy, but I think proper spelling, grammar, punctuation, etc.---or lack of such---reflects on FR. It only takes a moment to proofread your post.
Are you aware that the people in Maiden Square are the equivalent of our American Tea Party? Those people were not our OWS crowd. Would you be putting down our Tea Party?
....."no FReeper really admires Putin"...
I doubt any do..... I think many are watching this situation as one might a chessboard....when both players are cheating you try to look at the evidence and to see what rules they're following while they make their own rules as they go... often tricky to follow....
Then you have to see who the judges are equally as much and the rules they're making as they go. Not to mention those on the sidelines trying to be IN the game or skuttle the gameboard.
But you're right Putin is an interesting character to watch..especially in light of how the US and other country's are actually responding to the situation and or not. Many moving parts.
Good comment, agree.
If it's Hillary vs. NJFatboy in Nov 2016 I'm writing in Putin.
uhm, sorry I do not have TV so the first episode of "The Amreicans" is meaningless to me.
obama and putin should not be contrasted, but compared.
Remember the saying "Be careful what you wish for"?
Some joke about wanting putin for our president. What happens if obama does something so stupid that russia owns us? A bit far fetched thought but neither dictator adheres to laws.
Hey, you placed a period after the question mark.
And it should be amassing!
Uh... I hate to break it to you...
You can cry or you can laugh.

In January, fluconazole was licensed by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in treating cryptococcosis and candidal infections in the United States. Interest in this compound among investigators has been much broader because fluconazole has shown activity in experimental animal infections that include coccidioidomycosis, histoplasmosis, blastomycosis, and aspergillosis. This azole congener is the most recent of several to be licensed for the treatment of systemic fungal infections. The first, miconazole, has not been widely used. This agent typically requires several daily parenteral doses and produces its own set of toxicities. Ketoconazole was the next azole antifungal to be

Comfortable and well equipped suites, designed with the business traveler in mind.
Operated by the European-based company, Eurostars Hotels, this modern establishment caters to business travelers. However, it can also be a good jumping off point for tourists to Mexico City. Inside this ten-story, pink slate building, the hotel's decor is basic, modern, clean, and highly functional. Sixty attractive suites are each equipped with desks and wireless Internet, a living area with couches and television, and a small kitchenette. Suites vary in size, but all are spacious enough to accommodate an extended stay. Rooms on the upper stories of the property have pretty views of the surrounding neighborhood. Service is friendly, and there are plenty of amenities to meet a business person's needs. Guests can take advantage of the roof garden, with city views and a small Jacuzzi, as well as the business center on the ground floor. The hotel's small lobby and restaurant are not this establishment's main attractions. However, with the bustle of the Zona Rosa just outside your door, there is little reason to linger inside the hotel.

Not long after that, LB Michael Doctor lit up RB Jovan Stevenson on a running play. Wide receiver Kevin Cummings was nailed by LB Cameron Collins, forcing a fumble that was recovered by S Anthony Watkins, who ran it into the end zone.
CB Sean Martin also picked one off of Mannion and took it in for six.
Mike Riley said today's scrimmage was a first-down scrimmage, meaning a gain of four yards was a win for the offense and a loss of four yards was a win for the defense. Riley concluded that both sides of the ball played pretty even, but it was hard not to conclude that the day belonged to the D.
Regardless, Riley said the Beavs have a lot of work to do, in a lot of areas, before they will become a good football team.
Riley was glad to finally let the team loose for full contact and said they needed to have that. In doing so, we saw more of what Terron Ward and Malcolm Marable have to offer.
Riley's thoughts on Ward were that he is very football savvy and aware, while Marable has the cutting skills that give him something of a resemblance to Jacquizz Rodgers.
The running back situation became a bit clearer today and each player showed some stuff.
If the season started tomorrow, it looks like McCants would have to learn how to make the short passes work because his running game isn't getting him anywhere in the chase for the starting job. Stevenson looks like the obvious front-runner at this point.
At the end of the day, the stats spoke for themselves as far as the running game is concerned — Stevenson 7-48, Ward 9-40, Marable 7-29, McCants 4-14.
Ward and Stevenson tied for longest carry of the day with a 13 yard gain.
The receiving corps was a bit better than the running back, but not by much. Markus Wheaton caught a few of his usual midfield passes from Vaz. And WR Darrell Catchings had the offensive play of the day with a 56-yard catch downfield.
There were four fumbled snaps between the quarterbacks and centers and you could hear Coach Cavanaugh yelling each time.
Both Vaz and Mannion were seven of 13 passing, Mannion throwing two picks and Vaz with one. Vaz threw for 137 yards (56 of which came from Catchings catch alone), and Mannion tossed for 62 hashes.
Vaz is still taking the reps with the 1s, but it was Mannion who was firing off cannons downfield to WR Obum Gwatcham and WR Geno Munoz.
Since the shuffle on the offensive line pre-spring, Riley has been happy with what he's seen so far. As for competition, Michael Lamb has been challenging Burke Ellis for his right guard spot with the 1s.
Aside from that, no changes on the line, it's still RT Michael Phillip, RG Ellis/Lamb, C Grant Johnson, LG Josh Andrews and LT Mike Remmers in the starting spots.

Hawaii lawmakers pass minimum wage hike
April 8, 2014 - 6:03pm
HONOLULU — Lawmakers have passed a bill that will raise the minimum wage in Hawaii.
The House passed the measure Tuesday. Before it goes to the governor to become law, its details will have to be hammered out in conference with the Senate.
In its current form, the bill raises Hawaii's minimum wage by 50 cents beginning next year and by 75 cents a year until it hits $10 an hour in 2018.
It doubles the existing tip credit to 50 cents but restricts it to employees whose wages and tips together exceed the minimum wage by at least $7 an hour. The tip credit is the amount an employer can withhold from the wages of a worker who also earns tips.
Hawaii's minimum wage has been $7.25 an hour since 2007.

Edmund II
Beautifully Dark Art Pop! Think Nick Drake meets Nick Cave, surrounded by Doves and heavy in all the right places. A unique, precise blend of powerful ingredients!
Currently residing in Brooklyn, NY, Edmund II began developing his approach to music in the underground rock scenes of the midwest. Forming the cello-rock band Utah! in '98, and touring US and Canada, Edmund II has shared stages w/ Guided by Voices, the Lemonheads, Ted Leo, Promise Ring, the Frogs and Menomena. After relocating, he commenced "rocking out" in the infamous North Carolina scene. Through various projects and cameo's, Edmund II performed and collaborated with the Rosebuds (Merge Records), Bowerbirds, and Megafaun.
With a tasteful chord palate, Edmund II has gracefully evolved from rock and roll beginnings. He creates a very lush, mystical, and beautifully dark environment for his music with influences ranging from bossanova guitar, Tortoise, the Cure, Sigur Ros to Shellac.
After a substantial writing sabbatical in the fall of '09, Edmund II began the recordings for his first solo project. Conceptually in the making for 3 years, Edmund II's "Floating Monk" is a carefully crafted tale. The album is an artful balance of atmosphere and pop, but heavy in all the right places. Think Nick Drake meets Nick Cave meets Slowdive...surrounded by Doves.
"Floating Monk" LP


text: Two space stations are at rest relative to each other and are 6.0 � 107 m apart, as measured by observers on the stations. A spaceship traveling from one station to the other at 0.90c relative to the stations passes both of them, one after the other. As measured by an observer in the spaceship, how long does it take to travel from one station to the other? (c = 3.00 � 108 m/s)
