In the US, the NBA's owners and players remain worlds apart in their demands over a new Collective Bargaining Agreement, with the old one set to expire on June 30. Without a new one, the league will stop playing games for an undetermined period of time, and both sides are currently anticipating a work stoppage that could be substantial.
But in another part of the world, there's eager anticipation - as well as fevered competition - brewing with that possibility.
In an article in the German newspaper BILD (www.bild.de), Dirk Nowitzki shared his thinking on what he might do in the event the NBA is not playing in 2011-12, saying, "Rather than do nothing at all for a year, I would come to Germany [to play]." His closest advisor, Holger Geschwinder, elaborated further on their approach: "We would be negligent if we weren't analyzing our choices."
According to the article, those choices center around three teams with ties to Dirk: Bamberg (which is near Dirk's hometown of Wurzburg), Alba Berlin (which has the biggest arena, best tradition, and whose coach is a close friend of Dirk), and Bayern (which has two players who are close to Dirk, and whose coach is the coach of the German national team).
This isn't solely about Dirk, of course. The Dallas Mavericks employ other international players, such as Rodrigue Beaubois and Ian Mahinmi. If the NBA shut down, would they want to play in France and hone their skills? Would the Mavs' American players head to Europe or China or who knows where just to pick up some extra money? And how about players on other NBA teams?
But before we plan on seeing Dirk or anyone else playing overseas next year, there are a few issues that may get in the way.
It's clear that those players who are free agents for next season can play anywhere they wish. But Dirk is under exclusive contract with the Mavs through the 2013-14 season, which makes his options a bit fuzzier. It's already been arbitrated during a previous NBA work stoppage that the owners are not required to pay players in the event of a strike or lockout, so if he isn't being paid, presumably Dirk can suit up for someone else ...but can he sign a contract, since his first obligation would be to immediately report to the Mavs when play resumed? The NBA and FIBA (the international governing body for basketball) have cooperative agreements in place that prevent players from getting approval to play on any other international team when they have an NBA contract, so could that present an obstacle as well?
But the biggest issue for Dirk - as well as for any other NBA player contemplating playing elsewhere on a temporary basis - is this: what would happen to an NBA contract in the event of injury while playing elsewhere without NBA permission? Players play in international competitions like the Olympics and World Championships with the permission of the NBA, knowing that this entitles them to full NBA pay on their contract if injured. But if this protection didn't exist? For example, what would the Mavs do if Roddy B went to France without proper medical supervision and carelessly got hurt?
For the NBA and its players, big decisions lie ahead. And for three teams in Germany, those decisions may have an impact as well.

[Dr. Carson's] entry into the race to replace [Democratic Sen. Carl] Levin could galvanize conservatives across the country...
Absolutely it would. I don't live in Michigan, so I wouldn't be able to vote for the guy, but I've no doubt that Dr. Carson is just what the GOP (and the country in general) needs.
At a time when the chaotic implementation of Obamacare will be front and center, Carson will be able to speak intelligently about Obamacare's flaws. The RNC says it wants to recruit more minority candidates. Here is a chance for them to do so.
Here's to hoping that Dr. Carson is on board with the idea.

Huskies Hang with Gophers
The final weekend in February marked the regular season finale for the St Cloud State women's hockey team. The regular season ended the same way it started, versus the Minnesota Golden Gophers. The Gophers came to the National Hockey and Event Center ranked #1 in the country and brought with them a 40 game winning streak. The Gophers had intentions of becoming the first team in WCHA history to finish the regular season undefeated. The weekend also marked the home series the eight SCSU seniors would endure: Haylea Schmid, Alex Nelson, Kylie Lane, Anna Donlan, Ellie Sitek, Katie Allen, Callie Dahl & Lisa Martinson gave everything they had in front of the home crowd. The Huskies played on front of over 300 fans on Friday and over 500 on Saturday as they looked to snap the Gophers streak.
In both games the Huskies battled the Gophers to a scoreless tie in the opening period. In the second period during both match ups the Gophers would find the net to take the lead. The Huskies played inspired and had opportunities of their own. The major downfall for the Huskies was penalties, giving the Gophers 14 power play opportunities over the weekend. Head coach Jeff Geisen told KVSC during his postgame press conference on Saturday that the penalties hurt them. "The unfortunate thing is that we had to kill that many (penalties), but our penalty killers did a good job and Julie (Friend) did a god job of helping us kill those off but you can't put a team that is 40 and 0 coming into the weekend and give them 29 minutes in penalties, that's over half the game that we are trying to play on our heels against a lower division team which is what we are right now, we can't put ourselves in that situation."
SCSU dropped both games over the weekend to the Golden Gophers 2-0 on Friday and 3-0 on Saturday. The Gophers end the regular season undefeated and will host Bemidji State in the opening round of the WCHA playoffs while the Huskies will travel to Madison, Wisconsin to face off versus the second seeded Wisconsin Badgers. Tune into KVSC's "Jeff Geisen Show" on Friday prior to our coverage of men's hockey for an inside look at SCSU's women's hockey in the postseason.

Car crashes into gift store, leaves sticky, runny messBy Patrick McArdle
STAFF WRITER | December 15,2013MARLBORO A gift shop sustained extensive damage when a car crashed into it Friday evening.
Vermont State Police said Frederick Bump, 67, of Brattleboro was driving a 2013 Subaru XV east on Route 9 around 9:45 p.m. when he lost control in the slush.
Bump crashed into the exterior wall of the Hogback Mountain Gift Shop at an angle, according to Trooper Ryan Wood. The car knocked down a 15-foot section of the stores exterior wall and destroyed a large amount of merchandise inside the store.
Bump was not injured but the car was destroyed, Wood said.
Store owner Ed Metcalfe said Saturday he was dealing with a sticky, runny mess of jams, wines, maple syrup and pancake mix.
The most damage was done to a wall where Vermont wines were displayed, Metcalfe said, along with 200 to 300 jars of jams and jellies. The crash knocked those items into a display of maple syrup, he said.
Metcalfe said the crash didnt close the store, but he might close on Sunday because of the expected storm.
The area of Route 9 where the gift shop is located has a bad curve so vehicle crashes arent unusual, Metcalfe said. He said his building has been hit about three times since he became involved with the business in 2002.
Because the accident happened at night, when the store was closed, no employees or customers were hurt, Metcalfe said.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER A pending deal between the state and federal governments will give a big boost to...

Let's hope Kessler wins then lol. I agree it will be a good fight but I am going to go with Kessler again. I know everyone is high on Froch's performance with Bute so most are picking him. Froch is a warrior and will fight anyone I give him that, I just can't stand his mouth and he is just not that skilled. Will and heart of a lion though so I cannot take that away from him. Let's hope neither try to fight Ward again though, he is just on another level.

It was a lot of paper work my first visit. I got an appointment within 48 hours. The girl at the front desk handles EVERYTHING I don't know how she does it all I would leave and never come back. Doctor spent about 45 minutes with me and my daughter. I got an appointment for my procedure 5 days later. The staff in the operating room wasn't as friendly as the girl in his office. My follow up appointment was 3 weeks after my procedure and I was immediately taken to exam room after signing in. They accepted my insurance Cigna Health Springs and I've had a lot of trouble finding doctors to take my insurance.
It took me 2 days to get a new patient appointment. they accepted my insurance at 100%. Too much paperwork. Office was very clean. Staff was friendly. Doctor explained everything well. A little too forward about my weight. Had procedure lass than 1 week later. Office called to confirm appointments the day before.
I agree with all that say Dr. frank, is the most easy Doctor I have ever met. Dr. Frank treated me for over 3 years and when walking into my hospital room,he said "I did not know you were that sick"I also see his nice staff has taken on his arrogant attitude...
Probably the worst Doctor that I have ever been around. His bedside manner is horrible. He yells at interns right in front of me. I will never go to Dr. Frank again.
Dr. Frank is very deceptive. He does not honor his own billing agreements that are presented to patients to sign and will not see patients that do not leave a credit card on file. He does not care that you are in pain or there for a medical reason, he sees patients as dollar signs! Avoid at all cost.
I was referred to Dr Frank from my surgeon who thought I was too young to have surgery. I was able to get an appointment in less than a week. Once I arrived I was greeted by friendly staff. The paperwork was bit overwhelming. The check in process was about 15 minutes long. I was seen by the doctor. He was very knowledgeable and straightforward. I was able to have an epidural injection 5 days later. The injection gave me 95% relief. I was very pleased with his service. I would definitely recommend him to other patients
the staff is as nasty as their boSs, dr. Frank.
This is the worst doctor I have ever seen. He sits in a chair, you walk in, he shuffles a few papers, asks a few questions, and then prescribes whatever he wants. There is no opportunity to question him and if you do, you will feel the full weight of his fury that you dared to question him in any way. His receptionist is cold and filled with contempt. All he is able to do is put on a lab coat and write prescriptions - and even that is as good as anyone on the street could do. Avoid at all cost
Avoid if you can. I honestly suspect that Dr. Frank is emotionally disturbed, as this is the only explanation I can fathom for his stunning rudeness and ill temper. Five visits was enough to verify it was not merely my imagination or the doctor having a bad day. He is consistently insulting and rude if he senses in the slightest degree that he is being challenged - and he will interpret virtually any response other than "yes. doctor" as an affront. There are plenty of good pain management specialists out there who are both competent and respectful, so there is no reason to put up with Dr. Frank's unpleasant behavior.
I have been going to Dr Fank since early 2012. I go to him even though he doesnt have the softest bedside manner and he is quite a bit of distance from me. I dont care about those things. He understands pain, I find him to be a straight shooter, and I trust him. He has always answered all my questions, effectively kept my pain level down using multiple types of treatments. That I have been able to continue to put off surgery, while working in a very stressful job, many hrs per week. I am not pain free but I actually have a life. Eventually I will have to have surgery, but as long as I can postpone the happier I am. I recommend him...Highly
Walks like a duck quacks like a duck... must BE A QUACK!
Horrible bedside manner, actually outright rude. If you're looking for an arrogant doctor, he's your physician!!
Dr. Frank was able to help my father step back a bit from the "pain" problem and look at the emotions bound up in it, and this greatly helped my father and our whole family.
I have RSD and have been with Dr. Frank since '98. He has always been there for me. He understood my issues, I trust him totally. He always takes the time to answer my questions and helps me to get the answers I need. He is a great doctor!!He has always treated myself and my family with respect. He has helped me to be able to deal with this painful disease. What I admire about him is that he just doesn't write you a script and send you on your way, he takes the time to figure what treatment is best suited for you.
very smart
Dr Frank is brilliant and clearly understands people in chronic pain. He is an exemplary Doctor
Dr. Frank is a very nice person and a good doctor, he didn't push drugs on me, like the other comments made. He is very knowledgeable and helped me manage my pain.

Historical Traveler Reviews Honeywood Inn Stowe
Great Find
I was fortunate to find the Honeywood when the Inn we usually stay in was fully booked. My fiance & I made the mistake of just arriving in Stowe, last fall without reservations, on a last minute whim. We went to the Inn we usually stay at, and they had a wedding and were filled, but they suggested the Honeywood, and it was a great choice. We have stayed in Stowe for years, and there are a lot of Inns., but most do not live up to the expectations of warm and friendly, most are cold and unfriendly. Thank you for suggesting the Honeywood, you definitely know your fellow innkeepers, and now we have an alternate Inn when you are filled, it is so nice to see that Innkeepers work together and are friendly with each other. Bill and Carolyn definitely live up to the standards of being real Innkeepers, also great food and rooms. I would recommend the Honeywood to anyone.
Wonderfull Warm Hospitality, in Quaint Setting, close to Ski Mountain
Coming from Vancouver, Canada to seek out the colourful fall foliage in the east, my girlfriend and I choose Stowe as our destination. We had heard good things about autumn in Vermont, and decided to do a tour of new England Inns. Upon arrival at the Honeywood, we were greeted by the wonderfull aroma of fresh baked oatmeal cookies, and hot Vermont Apple cider, which was a welcome reprieve from the cold damp October afternoon.
The Inn was quaint, as we noticed the abundance of warm fuzzy teddy bears to greet you at the front door of the gingerbread house. My girlfriend loves bears, and thought the atmosphere was very cute, making us feel very relaxed from our long days journey. We sat by the fireplace in the guest livingroom, and enjoyed a few cookies, cider and afternoon snacks, while chatting with the Innkeepers.
We had rented a 2 room suite, with a jacuzzi tub and a fireplace in the living room. The room was homey and nicely decorated. Not being familiar with the local restaurants in Stowe we received a very good dinner recommendation from Carolyn and Bill. In the morning we awoke to an outstanding breakfast of Eggs Benedict and distinctive homefries and we enjoyed chatting with some of the other guests at breakfast as we sat at one of the communal dining tables in the guest living room.
I would go back to the Honeywood, and recomend it to anyone looking for an Inn with a friendly warm atmosphere close to Mount Mansfield.
Wonderful Weekend
My girl friend and I just found the Honeywood on line, and were more than happy with our choice, as it was the best weekend we have spent in a long time. We booked a room with canopy bed and small fireplace, and were thrilled to find it had a whirlpool tub as well. The room was qauint with beautiful carved canopy bed, and the whirlpool tub was very relaxing after a long day of skiing. Carolyn and Bill are very friendly, and go out of their way to be helpful recommending dining, and going over all the other leasure activities available in the area, other than alpine skiing. We can't wait to return.
Great rooms and breakfasts
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Honeywood Inn and Lodge in Stowe, Vermont. It is on the main road leading to Mount Mansfield. The room was very quaint, quiet, and nicely decorated.
The made to order breakfasts were delicious. The French Toast is the best.
Carolyn and Bill make their guests feel right at home.
We're Charmed by the Honeywood!
The Honeywood is a wonderful place to spend time in Stowe regardless of the season. The location is ideal since it is on Mountain Road, near both the recreation trail (which is fabulous in all seasons!) and Mount Mansfield. The rooms are charming and comfortable. The hosts, Carolyn and Bill, are friendly and go out of their way to meet your every need. The breakfast is exceptional and always served with a smile. We particularly enjoy the apres ski gatherings - they provide a chance to mingle with other guests in a relaxed and light hearted atmosphere. The Honeywood is our favorite place in Stowe and we recommend it to all our family and friends. And if you are a bear lover, it's the place for you!
Excellent stay
I was initially apprehensive staying here after reading the first few reviews. I contacted the owners and they replied immediately with reasonable explanations. This was our first trip to Stowe so I didn't want to waste time with mediocre lodging. I can say without a doubt at the end of the weekend that the stay was worthwhile, pleasant and all we expected. Carolyn and Bill, the owners of the lodge for 15 years are friendly and responsive. We arrived late on a Friday night and I was sure we awoke Bill for the check in but he didn't complain at all. He knew I had 2 young girls with me and gave me a choice of 2 rooms and proceeded to make up an extra bed for us while we unpacked. The morning homemade breakfasts were tasty and fresh and more than we expected. The girls especially loved the apple pancakes and waffles. However, the highlight for the kids, after a day of skiing was the afternoon fresh baked cookies and hot apple cider. Nice touch after a long day on the slopes, which were just 2 miles down the road. Carolyn had many suggestions for local restaurants and activities. The rooms were tastefully decorated and quiet and I couldn't find any problems with them at all. Overall we would not hesitate to stay at the Honeywood when we are in Stowe again.
Wonderful Lodging
We were at The Honeywood in Stowe last weekend, and it was wonderful. We were in the Lodge, a small 60's style motor-inn, with exceptional rooms. We had a room with wonderful canopy bed, small fireplace, and whirlpool tub in the bathroom. We particularly enjoyed the whirlpool tub after skiing, it was so relaxing and a really nice tub. The breakfasts were great and the hosts very friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend it for your visit to Stowe, I noticed other reviews, and I am shocked, they do not describe the Honeywood at all. They also have an Inn, which we thought was very cute, but my wife & I prefer the lodge with motor in amenities in room.
Loved the Inn & Lodge
My husband just called me to tell me a friend he had referred to The Honeywood had found these terrible reviews. We have stayed there for the past 6 or 7 years, and have loved every stay. The rooms are a good size very clean and tastefully decorated. We have stayed in all 3 suites at various times, and they are great, and very clean, and there definately are no fleas. I don't undestand the nasty reviews, as they are not the truth. The Innkeepers Bill & Carolyn are very friendly, work very hard, and the breakfast is great. PLEASE try them out, and do not believe the other reviews, I noticed they were anonymous, that should speak for itself Mary
Absolute Worst Experience!!!
We reserved a room for two nights in two weeks advance. We called them over 3 times to check the reservation and everything that came with it. After an 18 hour straight drive I surely was'nt ready for what was about to come.
The room that we were placed in was not the room that we paid for. When asking for our money back, they refused. The hot tub that they promised in they're web site was nothing more than a dingy bath tub. The rooms were the size of a big closet. The beds were squeeky and uncomfortable. The over all look of the hotel was like nothing else on the road.
We paid $411.98 for an hour arguement and a two hour stay to bathe and regroup to travel another 18 hours back.
The owners are not professional at all. They directed us to leave the property (without our money), they refused to show us any contract that they said we had signed, they accused us of sneaking behind they're office and stealing paper work while they werent looking, and they talked to my fiance like dirt.
The website and pictures are VERY DECEIVING, and the confirmations on the phone werent any better. Do Not Stay Here !!!!! Bad Idea!!!
Worst Service Ever
Beware of staying here. The innkeeper Bill is nasty, and doesn't want to be bothered with requests from guests. We paid nearly $600 for two nights in the jacuzzi/fireplace suite, and he snapped at us when we asked for more firewood, even offering to carry it ourselves...a measley 4 pieces were there to begin with. The room was filled with fleas, and when we asked him to fumigate/clean the room, he didn't mop/vacuum or change the sheets. We weren't able to use the jacuzzi the entire time, dirt was coming out from the jets. Upon checkout when showing him, we asked to be reimbursed for the lack of services, not fair to pay for a jacuzzi when it was unusable. He freaked out, yelling at us to leave his premises. Not apologetic at all, is an unethical innkeeper. Don't stay there unless you want to pay huge sums of money to sleep in an unhospitable environment with fleas and bathe in dirt.

|Eastern cottontail (Sylvilagus floridanus)
|Scientific classification
in part
Rabbits are mammals of the order Lagomorpha. There are about fifty different species of rabbits and hares. The order Lagomorpha is made of rabbits, pikas and hares. Rabbits can be found in many parts of the world.[1] They live in families and eat vegetables and hay. In the wild, rabbits live in burrows, that they dig themselves. A group of rabbits living together in a burrow is called a warren. Rabbits are famous for hopping and eating carrots.
A male rabbit is called a buck, and a female is called a doe. A baby rabbit is called a kiten, which is short for kitten. Rabbits have a gestation period of around 31 days. The female can have up to 12-13 kits, very rarely litters as big as 18 and as small as one. Some people have rabbits as pets. Rabbits are also raised for their meat. Rabbits are of a different biological classification than hares.
Since rabbits are prey animals, they are careful in open spaces. If they sense danger, they freeze and watch. Rabbit vision has a very wide field, including overhead scanning. Their enemies are foxes and dogs; also bears, raccoons, minks, weasels and snakes. Birds of prey sometimes take rabbits. People are also known to shoot rabbits, because they eat crops. Their escape method is to run for their burrow, where they are usually safe.
Rabbits have a complex social structure and, like dogs, they have a hierarchy. Rabbit ears probably have several functions. The main function is to give warning of predators, but they may be used for signalling, and temperature regulation.
Rabbits as pets[change | change source]
In the wild, rabbits have plenty to keep them occupied, from foraging to reproduction to territorial defence. Captive rabbits, on the other hand, often lack stimulation, which can lead to behavioural problems and poor health. The expected lifespan of a rabbit in the wild is about three years. Once rabbits become a certain age, usually one ear will flop down. This is called an helicopter ear.

I won't have access to the internet for awhile starting in a few hours. I've already downloaded both updates and am confidant that I can use them without issue as I'm very good with technology. But now that they have been taken offline and MS says they will help us, I am confused. Can I still even use them? Was there an issue with those updates and using them can possibly brick my One? Who do I talk to to go about getting the update offline? I need to know ASAP.
Hi dysphunkti0n,That is correct, we pulled the "Emergency Online Update". For transparency, we have stated that the Xbox One will need an internet connection to install the 'Day One' update, so even if the emergency update were available, you would still need to connect your console to the internet to successfully install the full update and use the console. If you will not have a connection available, I would suggest taking your console to a friends house or something, and installing the update their. Hope that clears things up, and let us know if you have anymore questions.
How to use the forums
So what do I do with the two updates I had already downloaded, the ones you pulled?
I'm a little confused as to why it was even put up in the first place, but I understand that errors happen, no issue there, really. Anyway, so basically the only way to update my console will be via connecting it to Xbox Live?
You will need to connect to the internet for the first time. This was explained thoroughly ahead of time. After the day one patch you're free to disconnect from Xbox LIVE.
Twitch Partnerships, Development | Twitter: @BackwardsNinja
you have to go with a friend and use his network
Yeah dude, go to a friend's house. That makes much more sense than having the update files available for USB install. If you can get it on the Internet, it's a paper weight. The setup can't be cancelled and won't complete without an Internet connection.
I feel bad for people with low caps on their internet. Downloading a file to 79% over and over and over probably eats through some peoples cap.
My cap is unlimited but as the hours roll past without a single comment from MS even admitting there is a substantial update issue is terrible customer service. I quit trying after 4-hours and will be hoping it gets fixed before I get off work.
If you are going to be so ill-prepared as to required a day one, mandatory update to make your $499 console functional...you'd better have the back-end up and running properly to support it.
May I ask why the update was not installed during the time postes were made here?????? YES!!!! the ONLY way to update is by connecting the console online. GOOD LUCK!!!!
I called earlier today and had the option to have them call me back. Two hours later they call me and I have an hour conversation about what is wrong with it. Customer Service is lost on this new console, not a clue what is going in. 45 minutes into the conversation the woman asks me AGAIN if I am SURE I have the batteries installed correctly. After I say yes the controller is able to connect and make a few selections she then asks me if I am sure the xbox is plugged in. She then told me they would be doing a followup call sometime in the next 5 days since they could not fix my problem and if I needed a replacement unit that it would take at least 3 weeks to ship one to me. Awesome service on for Day One Xbox.
Worst experience with XBOX ONE. I'm on a 10 days trip to Australia and bought XBOX ONE on the first day.
I was excited to play games one my new xbox one.
Unfortunately this XBOX one doesn't connect to hotel WiFi/LAN (hotel wifi requires me to accept 'terms & conditions' - popup that opens in other devices).
This dumb device doesn't recognize that. Keeps trying to connect and finally reports failure.
Searched through multiple forums and came to know that we can setup alternative MAC address (in the trouble shooting step). After changing the Mac address, it asks to 'restart'. After restarts, the setup starts from beginning. Did the XBOX developer forgot to write the 'code' save it?
I'm a software engineer with 8 years of experience, but it doesn't help me to use this device on my day one. Dear XBOX team, Windows is famous for frequent software updates. Are you kidding with first day software update? That too with 2GB size data?
I tried with my mobile (tethering got disconnected due to an incoming call). After 46% download, xbox asks me to start again from the beginning.
I regret buying XBOX ONE. Definitely I won't recommend it to anyone else.

Hi A few of us joined/enrolled for SAP CRM (mySAP CRM) Trainning and Certification, paying the whole amount at Siemens SAP (Authoroized by SAP) . Start date of Course is Nov-08-2006. Today the Nov-10-2006 Friday after 3 days of trainning with mySAP crm 2005 material and access to only mySAP crm 4.0. Servers/software. On raising the issue of not getting the server for CRM 5.0 . The students were told that CRM 5.0 servers are not available upto Jan 2007 . Then comes the certification part. Now we are told that for certification in C_CR_410, we need Certification in C-CR10_50 and additional certification in C_CR300_50....... All the students feel thatthey have been dupedd and misled, cheated, ,,, by SAP India nd Siemens their Authorized trainning center..... So much for CRM customer Relationship trainning and the practice of CRM by the very coporates conducting the CRM and selling the CRM products
I strongly agree with you. It happens to me also. I have applied for certification for CR600. The agreed and paid certification amount also. Now they are saying i have to get certification in CR10_50 first then i have to write for CR600_50. Really bad, didn't expect from SAP India.
Sounds to me as if your issue is with Siemens not SAP. I took the CRM 5.0 course through SAP (Not Siemens) directly. It was fine.
If I take a NETg course on Oracle Financials, and I dislike it, I dont blame Oracle. I blame NETg.
(This happened to me).
I don't know what is more sad: ignorance masquerading as knowledge (eg, not understanding that fraud is both a tort and a crime), the shallowness of the interneter (eg, thinking that wikipedia is the ultimate word in any discussion), or the sheer waste of an uneducated mind, which cannot maintain a single strand in an argument.
Wait, I know what is the saddest: The utter lack of sensitivity to realize that you are owned, baby, in combination with the inane nuisance of a yapping puppy.
You, of course, do not have the grace or sense of shame to simply walk away. You will prove this by responding to this posting.
Yes, I agree, I lose when I stoop to engage in an internet discussion. It is beneath me, and it demeans all of us here No matter the opponent can't make a point, changes position constantly, confuses simple concepts, and makes up terms. No matter if his butt is owned, baby. It brings us all down a notch, and humanity is not the better for it.
It makes you owned, baby.
Fraud is a crime, so public accusations of such better be right on, or don't be surprised if you are subject to a lawsuit for slander, unless you can prove your allegation. For example:
Show where you were promised that you would be able to receive the results you expected.
Show that the service provider failed to deliver the results it promised you.
Show that you yourself paid for the course, and were not offered an adjustment if service provided was different than expected.
Show that Siemens, which you apparently have an issue with, is the same company as the company you are accusing, SAP.
Once cooled down, a suggestion is that beyond technical certification, taking some coursework in English composition would help more than you can know, from a career perspective.
Great and thanks, thought no one would pay attention.
To prove that the services was offered to the people to be trained on msSAP CRM 5.0, there are emails of communication stating that they are no longer offering trainning on version 4.0 as per the directives of SAP and other material evidence.
I guess you guys are pro SAP so you did some selective reading and choose to ignore what I wrote and the fact that the Reading material sent to Siemens -Hydrabad from SAP Bangalore one day before the actual start date of the course was for ver 5.0.
The SAP authorized trainner was told to teach us on ver 5.0
and when asked about not been given ver 5.0 servers to practice on and why the students are made to work on 4.0 servers, was told that they were going to get the ver 5.0 server log-ons soon.
After 3 days of working, the students are told by a SAP representative, employee of SAP bangalore one Reshmi Gangama, who came on Friday, who the students were told was in turn just relaying the information from her boss the head of SAP training in India, a Maggie Ramaiah, that ver 5.0 servers will not be avaiable upto Jan 2007 as they are applying patches, (note the word applying).
Good god, I am not sure if a huge company like SAP would take more than two months to apply patches on their tranning servers.
And the directive and communications to the students about the trainning on ver 5.0 started well over a month. And now to be told after they paid the fees and made arrangements to attend the course (many even quite their jobs to join the full time course).
Well if that does not constitute a major scam of a FRAUD by a company trying to sell a CRM (customer Relationship Management) product and services. But maintaining low customer service ethics, I am not sure what is.
Like someone said, it feels like the Devil trying to sell the bible.
What i put in here is just about the tip of the ice berg, there are more facts pointing to the sloopy and shady way the whole affair has been conducted.

Converging Lens
This experiment uses a double convex lens (a magnifying glass) on your desk. Each student works with their own lens (identified on the lens as student 1 and 2). The lens and screen are held in place by magnetic clamps that can be switched on and off.
A converging lens can produce a real image (where the light focuses to an image). Film that is placed at the image plane would be exposed and could be developed into a picture. Real images are also found with concave mirrors and holograms with images projecting out in front.
Experiment a
- Determine the focal length of the lens directly by obtaining the image of a very distant object on a white card and measuring the image distance.
- Write down a value (an uncertainty) of how accurate you feel this focal length was measured.
Experiment b
- Write your name along with a color drawing on a card. Attach the card with masking tape to the front of a light. This back-lit card will form the object. Place the light into position at one end of the board.
- Adjust the lens height so it coincides with your name on the card. Now, position the lens at some distance (30-60cm) from the object (your light with the card)
- Now find the position of a screen (card on a post) for which an image is in sharp focus
- Measure the object and image distances from the lens as well as the object and image sizes.
- Determine how exact you can measure distance and also how exact the screen can be positioned at the image location. Write down these values as uncertainties (a � value)
- What effect does covering part of the lens have on the image. (Try covering �, �, or � of the lens and see what happens with the image)
Experiment c
- Separate the object card and the screen by as much as bench will allow.
- Find the lens position at which there is a sharp image on the screen. Measure the object and image distances from the lens as well as image and object sizes.
- Now leaving the object card and screen in the same position, find a second (different) position of the lens where there is a sharp image on the screen and measure all positions and sizes.
- Determine the focal length of the lens from the measurements of experiment b and c.
- Considering all three experiment values for the lens focal length, write a single statement that states an overall focal length and an overall accuracy for this value.
- For all parts of experiments b and c, determine the expected magnification using the object/image distances and compare to the magnification found from the object/image sizes. Write the comparison statements using percent difference.

By Sir Guillaume de la Belgique
(©2003 Scott Farrell)
Recently, Felinah and I were having dinner with Baroness Kyriath. While dinner discussions between the three of us — and by "three of us" I mean "Felinah and Kyriath" — often involve subjects like "blood-sucking insects," "medieval torture instruments," or "parasitic diseases of the brain," this evening's conversation was along a slightly less gruesome topic. (Many of you may be wondering, if Kyriath insists on bringing up inappropriate, grotesque or revolting topics at the diner table, why we continue to dine with her. This is undoubtedly because you have never tasted Kyriath's chocolate mousse.)
In any case, on this particular evening, Kyriath was telling us about an article she'd read regarding literacy among knights in the Middle Ages. She explained that during medieval times, the term "literate" was used to refer specifically to someone who could read and write Latin, and who had been educated in Classical literature. "According to this," she said, "since many knights were responsible for correspondence and maintaining household accounts, probably a lot of them could actually read and write. So, really, being a fighter is no excuse for not being well-read."
Then, Felinah and Kyriath both turned and gave me a look which strongly implied that it was my, personal, fault that most SCA fighters would rather spend their Saturday afternoons getting hit in the head with a stick than reading books filled with words like "fewter" "holpen" or "overthwartly."
So, young fighters and aspiring knight-types, the time has come for me to encourage the warriors of Caid to rise to a new level of knowledge and culture if I am to obtain what literary scholars refer to as "a second helping of chocolate mousse." What follows is a "compendium" of "medieval chivalric literature" which you should "read" in order to "educate" yourselves and dispel the perception that you are a "bone-headed rattan jockey." By doing this, you'll begin to appreciate that there's more to the Middle Ages than just armor and swords and combat. You will see that there is a rich literary tradition of stories filled to the point of obsession with descriptions of armor and swords and combat. Here, then, are some medieval works of literature which you might enjoy reading — at least during those portions of the day when it's too hot to fight.
Roland Down The River
First on any fighter's reading list should be "The Song Of Roland," an 11th century knightly epic which is primarily distinguished by the fact that it is not, technically, a song. It is, however, one of the "chansons de geste," (literally, "funny little wagon") which became quite popular in the medieval period known as "the days before sleeping pills."
The Song Of Roland describes, for approximately 4,000 lines (although at times it seems like only twice that many), the conclusion of Charlemagne's seven-year campaign against the moors in Spain — a campaign which was so successful that it ended with Charlemagne fleeing home to France. As he was crossing the Pyrenees, however, his men were ambushed by a Moorish force which had, undoubtedly, come to demonstrate to Charlemagne how much they had appreciated his visit in their country.
Throughout the poem, one of Charlemagne's most noble and trusted peers, Count Roland, single-handedly holds the Moors at bay with only slight assistance from Count Oliver, Count Gerer, Count Otun and about half of the French army — all of whom fight with such bravery and valor that by the end of the book they are slaughtered like cattle. The Moors are aided in their ambush by the duplicity of Ganelon, Charlemagne's evil advisor, who is probably bitter about the fact that he is, secretly, one of King Lear's daughters.
Much of the epic is concerned with the question of whether or not Roland will sound his horn. If he does, Charlemagne will hear it and return with the rest of the French army. Roland does not want to play the horn, however; he wants to fight. But the other knights want Roland to play his horn. Soon, the knights begin to wonder whether or not Roland even knows how to play the horn. Roland assures them that he does know how to play the horn, and that plenty of people have seen him playing the horn, he just doesn't want to play it right now. The knights assure Roland that no one will think he is a foofy, artsy fighter, because he plays the horn, but Roland insists that playing the horn is not nearly as important as fighting. This debate goes on and on, causing modern scholars to wonder whether the Song Of Roland is, in fact, the meeting minutes from an early knights' council.
Hagen Days
The epic German poem, the Nibelungenlied, was written in the 13th century, and, if you began reading it at that time, you might almost be finished with it by now. As I recall from my "Medieval And Renaissance Literature" class, one of the most effective means of understanding the Nibelungenlied, from a literary standpoint, is to recount the story's dynamic characters and plot in a discussion group, and every time someone says "Nibelungenlied," everyone in the group has to drink a shot of that renowned German beverage, tequila. I believe the resulting discussion went something like this:
"The Nibelungenlied is the tale of two women, Kriemhild and Brunhild. Unlike other medieval epics, the female characters of the Nibelungenlied have important roles, and the women of the Nibblelunkinleed are, in many ways, more crucial to the story than its male characters. The Neebeelegenlan begins with the introduction of Siegfried, who is the son of King Siegmund and Queen Siegelind. Sickfried is knighted at a huge festival in the second chapter of the Newbielincolnlogs, and Siegelind sends Singfried to find Lady Kriemhild so that Siegfriend can court her for his wife. Then Freegmund … wait, I mean, Frickaseed, rides with twelve warriors to find Worms and fall in love. With Kriemhild, not with the worms. Then Hagen tells the story of how Sigfreud fought the Nakedbabes and won the legendary sword Almond … Osmond … Bosley … whatever, by slaying seven giant hundreds…"
At this point, as I recall, the discussion group was so overwhelmed with the literary magnificence of the Nibelungenlied that many of them had to go lay down. Or throw up.
Mort And Arthur
Of course, the greatest of all chivalric literature is "Le Morte D'Arthur" which tells the story of the heroic feats of the knights of the round table. Le Morte D'Arthur was written in the 15th century, during the height of the age of chivalry and romance, by Thomas Mallory, a man who was so devoted to the causes of chivalry and romance that he spent much of his life in jail for armed robbery and rape.
Although Le Morte D'Arthur fills two substantial volumes, the story itself is so totally gripping and compelling that it is absolutely impossible to put it down throughout, I would estimate, the first six pages. After that, it all kinda starts to sound the same. Uther fights the Duke of Tintagel. Arthur fights the Romans. Tristram fights Breunis Saunce Pité. Lancelot fights Sir Turquin. Gawain fights Sir Marhaus. Students everywhere fight to finish this darned book before mid-terms …
But, in the end, the spirit of chivalry, honor and courtly love prevail, and, as Mallory so touchingly observed,
We may se all day, for a lytyll blaste of wyntres rasure, annone we shall deface and lay aparte trew love, for lytyll or nowght, that coste muche thynge.
(I think this is what he told the guards when they unlocked his cell to empty his chamber pot.)
I hope this scholarly overview of the important works of chivalric literature will inspire everyone, fighters and non-fighters alike, to explore the many great writings of the Middle Ages. Your experience with the splendor and pageantry of the SCA will give you an insight into these books that few readers ever achieve, and, in the end, your fewter will be holpen in a more overthwartly manner than ever before. Or, if you don't believe that, you can always go back to getting hit in the head with a stick.

KSi Conveyors
In 2000, the founders of KSi Conveyors Inc. developed a patented, cleated belt technology that outperformed conventional augers and conveyors, moving seed at steeper angles and – most importantly – with very little damage to the seed. This technology and focus on seed quality has helped KSi establish a reputation within the industry as the standard for high-quality conveyors and seed handling equipment.
Our goal was to design a conveyor that would outperform conventional augers and conveyors in terms of material flow speed, maximum degree of operation, and have better material handling. We accomplished this goal with the use of the patented cleated belt that moves seed more efficiently than conventional augers, has the ability to perform at an angle up to 40 degrees and can handle material more gently, resulting in very little material damage. KSi Conveyors are reliably moving seed all across the globe, in North America, Europe, Asia, and Africa.
This reputation naturally led to the development and design of Bulk Seed Site conveyors and related equipment, including the creation of one of the most sophisticated, yet user-friendly, automation control systems available.
KSi developed standards and procedures early on for managing the process of Bulk Seed Site installation, and we have used that process to implement Bulk Seed Sites all over the United States. Our Bulk Site Specialists offer customers a single-source solution for the purchase, installation and training of all equipment (tanks, conveyors, hoppers, seed treaters and controls) required for a Bulk Seed Site, and then manage the process from beginning to end to ensure customer satisfaction.
KSi has over 90,000 sq feet of production and office space between our two locations in Cissna Park, IL and Sabetha, KS.
KSi strives to glorify God in all we do by establishing and maintaining relationships that are built on trust, transparency, and servant-leadership
KSi will be an industry leader of innovative design, manufacturing, and marketing of bulk material handling equipment and services by integrating technology and empowering people
KSi will always be committed – dependent upon God's help – to exceed what people and the law require in every aspect of our business

Help me wear my ring!
My mom recently gave me a ring that she's had for a while. It's a star sapphire with 2 tiny diamonds, set in a 10k white gold band. Therein lies the problem: I have a nickel allergy, and thus can't wear 10k gold. What do I need to know/what can I expect with regard to getting the stones set in a new band? [more inside]

What's the deal with this building? How can I find out?
There is a building in Woodley Park, DC that looks completely normal from the front and burnt-out and abandoned from the back. I lived a few doors down from it for about 15 months and never saw anyone go in or out of the back part of the building. Any idea what the deal is, or how I could research this? [more inside]

Traveling alone to DC on Christmas weekend. What to do?
So I have a few days off and just want to get away on a small budget. I have decided that I will take the bus to Washington, DC over the Christmas weekend, and will probably be staying at a hostel or maybe couchsurfing. I will probably stay for one or two nights. I don't have any friends or family in the DC area and, so far, I couldn't find anyone to travel with me, so I will be traveling alone. [more inside]
How to pick a therapist to help my anxiety (before pregnancy/parenting)
How do I pick the right therapist to help with my anxiety, stress, indecisiveness, and perfectionist tendencies? What kinds of therapy/techniques/approaches might be most helpful? How do I quickly assess whether to stick with someone or look elsewhere? What are reasonable expectations of how much I can improve in therapy and how quickly? I'm terrible at making decisions-- I need help! (Especially since we want to start trying for kids in a few months so I feel real urgency to make progress quickly to feel comfortable going ahead, for both my and the kid's sake.) DC-area, FYI. [more inside]
Good place to study in Rosslyn/Arlington, VA
We are looking for a nice place to study in the mornings. Should be within a mile of the Rosslyn metro stop.

Single working mother moving to DC: Falls Church or Silver Spring?
I am hoping to land my dream job in the heart of DC. The pay would be great for a single person, but as a working single mother, it won't be amazing. I am concerned about the usual: safety, quality of public schools, and commute times. Is Falls Church really that much better than Silver Spring? Is the red line as bad as I hear? [more inside]

DC Apartment Buildings
My friend and I are looking to room together in Washington, DC, and we've decided to expand our search to include larger, company-managed buildings in addition to smaller, privately-owned buildings.

Big clothes in the big city? (DC-filter)
I'm a fat woman (US sizes like 26-28 at the moment), newishly arrived to Washington DC. Where can I buy some clothes my size, in a brick-and-mortar store where I can try them on, and if possible that's near public transportation?

Soak it in
Now that there's a teeny bit of fall briskness in the air, I'm renewing my search for a gym in downtown DC with a hot tub.

Bogus Damage Charges from a Corporate Landlord DC Edition
Several roommates and I moved out of an apartment in DC this summer that is owned by a large corporate company (coughAvalonBaycough). We'd been in the apartment for almost four years. Before we moved out, staff from the building signed off on paperwork stating that there was no visible damage. A month later we get an incredibly bogus set of damage charges from the building for nearly $1,000. We already got our security deposit back, but they're threatening to send us to collections over these new charges. [more inside]

Seeking Faygo in DC
No, I'm not a juggalo - just a guy living in the DC area with several friends from Michigan. I thought it might be fun to surprise some of my friends with Faygo redpop and homemade Superman ice cream at our next shindig. Problem is, I've had a hard time finding Faygo in the DC area. Any ideas? (The Faygo website has proven a dead-end.) [more inside]
Cross-country driving, the pleasant way!
I've enjoyed the discussion on this post about America's worst highways, but I have a particular interest in seeing the other side of the coin - I'm going to be driving from DC to San Francisco in early October (in a minivan full of everything I own that is too delicate/bulky/valuable to send by mail--it's not much but it's not nothing) and I want to know: what route is the least maddening? At least, which parts have better options than others? I'm going to take about a week at it (hoping to not do more than 7-8 hours of driving a day). Bonus points for suggesting ideal places (not far from the interstate) to start the day with an ~hourlong bike ride.

Looking for a bumpy ride (to induce labor) in DC
We're not convinced that it'll work, either -- but going on 8 days past our due date, we're game for trying anything. Any suggestions on a bumpy road around the DC/Maryland metro area that we could drive along to try to get this labor thing going? Or maybe nearby farms that host hay rides this time of year (ideally one where we don't have to bring 25 of our closest friends)? [more inside]
Awesome/unusual places for 4-year-old in DC?
What are some really magical and unusual places to visit/things to do with a 4-year-old for fun in DC? He's visited most of the usual museums/zoos etc. (including 826 DC) that would be good for kids. Also acceptable are magical and unusual things happening at one of the usual places :-).
Best way to sell a high-end grand piano?

Ok, I need a car, but should I buy it before or after I move
I live in DC. Sometime soon after Labor Day, I'll be relocating to Charlotte, NC. I'm sure I'll have plenty of wailing detailed questions about this as the time approaches [and after!], but it's happening [and it's very good for my career. I'm calling it a new adventure]. Should I buy a car here in DC or once I'm in Charlotte? [more inside]
Family-friendly northern DC dining?
A friend and his family are driving from North Carolina to Washington, DC. I'm going to drive down from Baltimore to meet them for dinner on Friday evening, but I hate going into central DC, so we've agreed to meet in a more northerly region: perhaps Bethesda, Silver Spring or College Park. Unfortunately I'm not too familiar with that area, so AskMe, where should we have dinner? It'll be a party of four adults and three small children at about eight-ish on a Friday night. It should be someplace we can relax and have a leisurely conversation. Easy driving and parking is important. Thanks for the suggestions!
