ON ITS FIRST day back from summer break Thursday, City Council made it clear that reforming the property-tax system and raising revenue would dominate the discussion this fall.
With Mayor Nutter's planned move to a new property-tax system on the horizon, Councilman Wilson Goode Jr. introduced a bill that would reduce the city's tax abatement for developers from 10 years to five. The plan would start in 2014 with a full abatement in the first year and an annual gradual decrease of 20 percent.
"Under the current five-year financial plan, we will see many taxes go down," Goode said. "Business taxes will go down, wage taxes will go down, sales tax will go down, but property taxes will go up for some. So I think that as we see some of the burden shift to property taxpayers, we need to reconsider whether a 10-year, 100 percent abatement is necessary."

Student's campaign for homeless man raises £25k
A campaign to raise money for a homeless man who offered a student his last £3 so that she could get home safely after a night out has managed to raise more than £25k.
The Help Robbie fund was set up by former University of Central Lancashire student Dominique Harrison-Bentzen who, although refusing to take the man's money when he offered it to her on December 4, was so touched by the gesture she set out to track him down and help him get off the streets.
Harrison-Bentzen found Robbie with the help of Facebook and her subsequent fundraising campaign to raise money for the Preston-based homeless man to be rehoused, and helped back into work after seven months on the streets, has so far seen 4,028 people donate a total of £25,195.25.
Posting on the fundraising page Harrison-Bentzen thanked everyone for their support and said: "Together our small act of kindness can change someone's life this Christmas and finally get him off the streets safe and warm."

Charity watchdog chief warns over 'aiding extremism'
The Charity Commission has warned that Islamist extremism is the "most deadly" problem it faces, urging the government to introduce laws to prevent convicted terrorists from setting up charitable organisations.
The watchdog's chairman William Shawcross told The Sunday Times (£): "The problem of Islamist extremism and charities . . . is not the most widespread problem we face in terms of abuse of charities, but is potentially the most deadly. And it is, alas, growing."
He said the commission was taking tough measures against any charity that was "sending cash to extremist groups in Syria" or "dispatching young Britons for training in Syria by al-Qaeda or other extremist groups".
The regulator is investigating three charities raising funds for Syria and monitoring seven others.

Yummy, don't skip the dates it adds lots of flavour, thanks for sharing.
This chicken was tender and tasted great; it created a delicous, colorful "gravy" to go on top of Wild Rice with Walnute and Dates (Wild Rice With Walnuts and Dates ). We served it with Apricot Salad (Stuffed Apricot Salad for One) and a Mediterannean zuchini/tomato side dish. The only changes I made to this recipe were to add a few pinches of cayenne and used bottled lemon juice since I had no lemons on hand. We will have this again. Thanks for sharing a delicous recipe for family dining and for company.

Customer Reviews for BODY (2)
December 20, 2014
Amazing Experience
I spent four days in Santa Fe and spent them all at BODY. What a hidden gem! The space is expansive and so well laid out. There's lots of retail options - ecofriendly and organic! I took two yoga classes - Gospel Yoga was so uplifting! Loved it. I had three treatments in the spa, I wish I had time for more. And the food, wow! The cafe is so healthy, delicious and yummy. There's vegan, vegetarian and protein options, too. I had such a relaxing time. And the staff is very friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend stopping into BODY. It's a truly magical place.

A note on tiny wings.
It's actually NOT an endless runner, since its levels are the same every run, and a lot of the gameplay is about learning the levels and finding the flow.
Hi Oldof Hedman,
Actually the levels are results of procedural generation. They are not the same every run.

Callie's Heart by Kathleen Ball 5 Star Review and Top Pick by The Romance Reviews
Callie's Heart by Kathleen Ball received a wonderful 5 Star review from TRR- The Romance Reviews. It was also chosen as a Top Pick.
Just the opening of this book and it was like a force of nature to get me to stop reading it. But after Callie's arrival back home after four years, away at college, she was hoping to see her husband and see where they were in their marriage. Only to find him with his arms around a young woman, if I could call her that, sitting on his lap with their lips locked together. What an awful welcome home surprise. After that, it seemed that poor Callie could not get a break in her life; either she was getting injured on the ranch or she was crying because Garret was being an "ass".
Garret is an "ass". I was truly hoping that he would be able to see that he was hurting Callie but it seemed that he did not get it. Sure I understand that he was put in a difficult situation in marrying Callie in the first place, but come on, try and have some compassion. He believed he was too old for her and perhaps she should start dating, since no one knew about their marriage except for one person. When she did go out on her first date, he realized that he did not want her in anyone's arms but his. However, the realization came a little too late, buddy.
There is a killer among the ranch hands and someone wants their land because of the amount of oil that can be found underground. Besides the murder, other incidents were happening around the ranch. They had to watch each other's back, especially Callie since she was threatened twice.
It took me a grand amount of willingness to forgive Garret after what he did to Callie. At one point, I wished that she would forget Garret and go after Stamos, but I knew Callie would never be happy with him. The love of her life is Garret, and no matter what, she would follow her heart. There were two incidents that happened that got me so mad because he was accusing Callie of being a cutter to the point that he really thought she would do something to herself. But soon Garret and Callie have a heart-to-heart talk, and finally he is able to understand her.
There were times that I admired Callie but there were times that I wanted for her to have more of a backbone towards Garret. Now Garret was a man that did what he needed to do in order to move forward with the ranch. Yes, I called him an "ass", but he ended up being a loving husband, once all the secrets were out. He knew how to make Callie feel like she was in heaven, but had a hard time keeping her there. Even though there was so much fighting, bickering and crying, the passion that they shared was amazing and heartwarming.
CALLIE'S HEART was filled with mystery/ suspense that it captivated me from the beginning. The story was well written with just the right amount of romance. I can't wait until book 2 comes out in September and I am really hoping it has to do with the one ranch hand that was so thoughtful with Callie. I want to see him happy like Callie and Garret.

Scottsdale, Ariz. – April 25, 2013 – JDA® Software Group, Inc., The Supply Chain Company®, today announced the release of its latest version of JDA Transportation & Logistics Management, the company's most significant transportation management system (TMS) release to-date. Transformative innovations featured in JDA Transportation & Logistics Management include advancements in end-user interactivity, global logistics capabilities and localized routing.
The latest version of JDA Transportation & Logistics Management features significant enhancements to JDA Transportation Manager, JDA Transportation Planner and JDA Transportation Modeler, addressing all critical aspects of transportation planning, execution and modeling. The solution set is part of JDA eight, the recently announced JDA solution release built on a platform that brings together more than 30 different products, unifying supply chain management, optimization and business analytics for deployment in the cloud.
"The new JDA Transportation & Logistics Management is game-changing for our customers in several key areas," said Fabrizio Brasca, vice president, global logistics at JDA Software. "We've re-engineered the way end-users interact with our solution allowing them to leverage greater amounts of actionable data quickly and intuitively to make better decisions. From a capabilities standpoint, JDA has broken down siloes across intercontinental and local transportation patterns, allowing customers to drive the most value out of their available assets, increase agility and ensure the optimal balance between customer service and cost in complex, global supply chains."
JDA Transportation & Logistics Management allows organizations to:
- Leverage actionable data to increase employee performance, ROI:
JDA Transportation Manager, the execution application of JDA's latest transportation release, features the JDA Transportation Smartbench, a new user interface that empowers users to leverage greater amounts of actionable data to make better informed, real-time decisions. The JDA Transportation Smartbench segments, filters and displays data in ways that are meaningful to the user, allowing users to identify planning exceptions and access navigation capabilities to resolve exceptions in the most efficient, cost-effective manner.
- Optimally balance capacity and bookings for global logistics moves:
JDA Transportation & Logistics Management supports the ability to optimize and manually generate bookings of multiple containers and to tender to ocean carriers. Bookings can be rated and rate shopped and support full ability to adjust sailings, equipment types and carriers alongside adding and removing containers on the booking. JDA Transportation & Logistics Management supports rating and scheduling of both direct-to-door and port-to port-rates. This allows all contract types to be represented in a single, dynamic global optimization and execution flow. JDA Transportation Manager works in conjunction with JDA Transportation Planner to improve global planning and execution by enabling dynamic equipment selection while maximizing ocean carrier capacity commitments and minimizing total cost.
- Remove silos in localized routing, execution to drive most value out of available assets:
Users can now execute routing movements at a granular street-level within JDA Transportation & Logistics Management to drive the most value out of available assets for both inbound and outbound moves. Private and dedicated fleet execution can represent loads and continuous moves that consider improved distance considerations, resulting in improved stop sequencing. These types of loads can be executed alongside long haul fleet movements and contract carrier movements in a single workflow, promoting improved cost savings and utilization of fleet equipment.
Additional insights on JDA product announcements and innovations will be presented at FOCUS 2013, JDA's annual global conference that will take place May 5-8 in Orlando, Fla. For more information or to register for the event, please visit http://www.jda.com/focus/.

Don't look back, or you'll miss what's in front of you.
The past is set in stone, the present is wet cement, and the future is sand. It's easier to to build sandcastles than it is to sculpt statues. But the wet cement is the only thing that is concrete.

Strength isn't wishing for things of the past, strength is leaving without looking back.
Keep your head held high, Smile and never look back.
The future is a dream waiting to happen, the present is a dream that's currently happening, and the past is a nightmare that has a lesson.
Live your life to the fullest; there is no changing of a dark past, and you don't know when your last breath will be taken.
Don't let your past make you lonely in your future.
The pain of our past is also the fuel to our future.
Living in the past is living yesterday.

Day of Repentance Begins Global Week of Worship
| November 8, 2011
Bishop Courtney B. McBath '98 (Divinity)
Following a Biblical model, the Regent University community gathered Monday, Nov. 7, for a solemn assembly to mark a Day of Repentance. This occasion was the start of the university's Global Week of Worship, a time of refocus and renewal for faculty, staff and students.
Gatherings and events are planned throughout the week to allow for additional time of reflection and worship.
At a chapel service, Bishop Courtney B. McBath '98 (Divinity), senior pastor of Calvary Revival Church in Norfolk, Va., delivered a message based on two scripture passages from the Old Testament—2 Chronicles 7 and 2 Samuel 24, which contain lessons from the lives of two great kings of Israel—Solomon and his father, David.
Both men, McBath explained, understood how God works in the lives of his people who sincerely repent of their sins."There is great redemptive value in repentance and much to be gained," he said. "Repentance is not something you talk about, but something you do."
The act of repentance is more than simply asking for forgiveness of sins, McBath added, but rather repentance involves a change of mind that results in change of action. "You can do the right things for the wrong reason, and that doesn't please God," he reminded the audience.
Discussing what many would agree is a sad state of affairs in the United States today, McBath stated that God can bring blessings to a nation through his people if they genuinely repent. He also reminded people that repentance comes with a price—at a cost of time, humility and admitting failures to God.
"The price for our repentance has already been paid [by Jesus' death on the cross], but Jesus calls us to do our part—to humble ourselves and admit to God what we are ... that we're not what God wants us to be," he said. "With that comes a great result. Repentance really moves God and brings change."
Following McBath's call to repentance, several members of the Regent community offered prayers of personal and corporate repentance, with a time of individual reflection.

N.J. cops get stun guns, but policy contains limits
By Edward Colimore
Philadelphia Inquirer
The New Jersey attorney general yesterday approved the use of electronic stun guns by police officers under limited circumstances involving emotionally disturbed people.
The stun guns - which fire electronically-charged darts - may be used by officers only when a person has a weapon, poses a serious threat to others, and refuses to be taken into custody.

The Inter-American Development Bank has little to show for the billions of dollars it has pumped into Latin America. But Enrique Iglesias, who has led the IDB for 14 years, defends the bank's role and revelance.
Enrique Iglesias has spent 14 years at the helm of the
Inter-American Development Bank (IADB), which have capped a
career in international finance, academe and trade diplomacy
spanning nearly 40 years. At the age of 72, he is not about to
step gracefully into the background. Whether he will serve a
fourth term as IADB president will be decided by the bank's
governors in September. The IADB's United States executive
director, José Angel Fourquet - who was sworn in last
December - says that the US, the bank's largest shareholder,
has a "great" relationship with Iglesias. There is a sense,
nevertheless, in which this is the end of an era. Iglesias'
tenure as president has coincided with the heyday of reform in
the region. Now, as the economies of the region struggle under
the weight of collapsing public finances, ratings downgrades
and ballooning debts, many Latin Americans are

MILAN — Jil Sander Group narrowed its net loss in the first half of its fiscal year and increased its sales by slightly more than 3 percent.
Prada Holding-controlled Jil Sander said net losses totaled 9.7 million euros, or $12.3 million, for the six months ended July 31. Revenue for the period rose 3.1 percent to 69.8 million euros, or $88.6 million. (Figures have been converted from the euro at average exchange rates for the period to which they refer.)
Prada and its subsidiaries recently shifted their fiscal years to end in January. The company was not able to provide a directly comparable loss figure for the February to July period. Losses from January through July 2004 were 15.3 million euros, or $18.8 million.
Jil Sander was able to extrapolate directly comparable sales figures. Revenues in the six months running February through July 2004 were 67.7 million euros, or $82.6 million.
"The Jil Sander Group restructuring plan, which management started to implement in early 2005, continues into the second half of the year," the company said in a brief statement. "The plan will lead to cost savings in manufacturing and logistics for the year in course. The full benefit of the restructuring plan is expected to impact the net result in the next fiscal year."
Prada declined further comment on the figures.
In May, Prada appointed Belgian designer Raf Simons as creative director of Jil Sander. His debut season will be fall 2006. The spring collection to be presented in Milan later this month was crafted by a design team. Jil Sander left her namesake label for the second time in November of last year.

Aussie Singer Stars in New Anti-Fur Ad
Australian vocalist Missy Higgins is no newcomer to PETA. A few years back, she graciously appeared in one of our most adorable pro-vegetarian ads ever. Now she is lending her star power to an equally adorable new PETA anti-fur ad.
Joining the ranks of Charlize Theron and Friday Night Lights actor Aimee Teegarden, the award-winning singer/songwriter took time out of her busy schedule to speak up for animals who are killed for their fur by appearing in our ad alongside the almost unbearably cute Izzy. Feast your eyes on this:
With a heart as beautiful as her voice, Missy wants to remind everyone that the fur industry is hell on Earth for animals. In the wild, animals trapped in steel-jaw traps can suffer in pain for days, often gnawing at their own limbs in an attempt to break free. On fur farms, animals spend their lives in cramped, dirty cages, frantically pacing and circling endlessly before workers snap their necks or kill them with poison gas or electrocution.
Compassionate animal guardians can't imagine seeing their four-legged friends endure such suffering, and they can't imagine that anyone could get paid to inflict such suffering on other animals, either.

Sunflower girl Pink has done a lot of work for us. Here are just a few of the fabulous things she's done httpblog.peta.orgarchivespink.
Has P!nk ever advertised for PETA? If so can I please have some info on that as soon as possible. Thanks
This add has a nice sentiment but it assumes that there are no furwearing people who "wouldn't wear their dog." Unfortunately this is not the case.
The fur industry is one of the most vile cruel evil industries on earth. So thanks to Missy Higgins and all the other people who lend their voice to animals!
Very cute and sweet. I like it.
Awesome I really like three of her songs!
Missy Higgins Daniel Johns Judith Durham and Steve Kilbey are four of the most humane rock stars in Australia.
Love the ad!

In his controversial New York Times best seller, The Roots of Obama's Rage, Dinesh D'Souza answered the question on everyone's mind: why is President Obama hell-bent on seeing America fail? The reason, D'Souza explained, is Obama's fervent anticolonial ideology. Here, in his blockbuster follow-up, Obama's America, D'Souza shows how President Obama is applying his anticolonial ideology to unmake America and turn it into a country our founders would hardly recognize.
Obama came into office with an eight-year plan for America, argues D'Souza. If he's reelected in 2012, he will be able to finish the job—and destroy America's future. Making the case that Obama must be a one-term president, Obama's America reveals what unchecked power will do to this great nation and is a must-listen for anyone who cares about America and her future.
Dinesh D'Souza is the president of King's College in New York City and author of the New York Times best seller The Roots of Obama's Rage. He is also a former White House domestic policy analyst and research scholar at the American Enterprise Institute and the Hoover Institution at Stanford University. His other best-selling books include What's So Great about Christianity, What's So Great about America, and Life after Death. He lives in New York with his wife and daughter.
©2012 Dinesh D'Souza (P)2012 Blackstone Audio, Inc.
Yes I have already recommended it to everyone I know. There are a few stretches in the association of the facts to the theory but overall it makes so much more sense then other theories about Obama and why he is such a failure. I only wish that more of America listened and understood before they had re-elected him. Impeachment?
Has really given me the ability to look in the right place for information now.
Very objective and attempts to refute his own claims in order to prove them.
Not at all.
"Fundamental Change of America"
Why is American Exceptionalism foreign to Obama? More elaboration on what motivates Obama by D'Souza, author of Obama's Rage. Obama is living his fathers dream of fighting against Colonialism. His hidden agenda is to achieve equality for the ex colonies by reducing the power and influence of ex colonial powers like Great Brittan, France as well as the US empire. Obama's domestic and foreign policies are often puzzling, but well explained by D'Souza.
"Eye Opening"
A must read for anyone caring about our children and their future. Don't let the American Dream die now. So many brave men and women have laid down their lives to ensure our American way of life to let it evaporate in just a few short years. Mr. D'Souza outlines and explains what's happening so dramatically! A must read along with Monica Crowley's "What the (Bleep) Just Happened"?
"This + Roots of Obama's Rage = 2016"
This with "Roots of Obama's Rage" is the film 2016, but more in-depth.
David is just a natural when it comes to reading. He's very good.
Dinesh D'Souza
Obama wants to decolonize (destroy capitalism) in America through his founding fathers (Alinsky, Ayers, Wright, Jones, and his father).
Every American should read D'Souza's 2 books or (at least) see the film "2016".
"A Joke"
I think people who are angry at Obama, and like a story that they can use to articulate the anger without sounding too crazy.
No, uses a theory and stretches it so thin by searching for ways justify it. I was really hoping to understand more why people are so angry.
I would have never made it to chapter 9 were they start using actual facts.
disappointment, I had hoped I would be made angry and hate Obama, because before reading the book I would have been blind.
This book is a joke. But good for him as I know many who believe in the anger.
"Very interesting, informative and well referenced"
Eye-opening, well-documented, easy listening, kept my attention, linked his ideas well, prophetical of Obama's next moves because he understands his motives, helps us understand Obama's decisions and actions.
Romney and Ryan should both read and develop strategy from this book.
It is so important that everyone planning to vote for this snake in the grass listen to or read this book. I have never trusted this leftist clown since the time he started to run for office. This book really told me why my gut was telling me not to. I will forever be greatful to D'souza for risking his life in preparing this exposure of this progressive, anti-colonialist, potentially Marxist president. What Obama has in the cards for us is nothing less than criminal and potentially warrants high crimes and misdemeanors violations nessasary for impeachment. How could we have let someone like this run the great country on earth? He always make me ill to listen to him....now after this book he makes me furious!Hopefully this book is not too late for it to get to the right people to read and discuss. The movie needs put on free tv immediately. Please read this now or go to 2016. The survival of our country depends on it.
None...despise them all.
Obama's secret plan to destroy America's economy and superpower status.
Obama...burn in hell!
"We are in trouble."
No way!
Debt, possible outcomes.
China's president has it easier to run the country. What a comment to make.
Problem, we have to fix.
I liked the coverage and pace.

The largest shareholder of Houston-based Sterling Bancshares says its unhappy with the bank's performance and will propose an independent director slate.
TAC Capital of Bryan, led by former First American Bank executive Don Adam, said in a letter to other investors that Sterling's share price, earnings and operational performance "have significantly lagged the performance of its peers for a protracted period."
TAC owns about 10 percent of Sterling's shares.
The letter continued:
We have lost confidence that Sterling's current board of directors and executive team will be able to unilaterally effect a turnaround of this fine banking franchise and deliver the value that Sterling shareholders deserve.
Sterling shares have generated a return of 7.5 percent during the past year. The company reported a loss of almost $13 million last year, compared with a $39 million profit for 2008.
TAC's director slate includes Morris Foster, a former Exxon Mobil executive and chairman of the Texas A&M University board of regents; Kent Hance, a former Texas railroad commissioner and chancellor of Texas Tech University; Stephen Hansel, former chief executive of Hibernia Bank, and real estate developer Larry Johnson.
A spokesman for Sterling declined to comment.
In May 2009, Sterling became the first Texas bank to repay money it borrowed from the government under the Troubled Asset Relief Program.

Prince Harry To Trek To South Pole With 'Walking With The Wounded' Charity
Category: Media & Culture
/ Apr 20, 2013 4:45PM EDT
Prince Harry, Britain's third in line to the throne, will take part in a race to the South Pole alongside wounded British servicemen and women, he announced on Friday. The 208-mile (335-km) trek to the South Pole will see Britain's Royal compete against teams from the United States and Commonwealth countries. "As a member of the British team, I will have a brew (tea) on ready for you when you join us at the Pole," he said in a speech, referring to participants from other countries. All the team members suffer from either physical or cognitive injuries received in the line of duty. The expedition will last for four weeks in November and December 2013. The teams will trek between 15 and 20kms a day and endure temperatures as low as minus 45 degrees Celcius and 50 mile an hour winds. They will pull arctic sleds each weighing more than 150 lbs. Walking With The Wounded aims to show injured soldiers that there is life after their injuries and to raise money for the charity to help wounded troops find civilian work. In 2011 Prince Harry joined the Walking With The Wounded team for four days in a trek to the North Pole. Video Source: Reuters

Farnborough – Infor, a leading provider of business application software serving more than 70,000 customers, today announced that Ahmad Tea of London, an international tea company, has deployed Infor SCE to manage its 10,000 pallet warehouse in the Emirate of Ras al Khaimah, UAE. The application is expected to help improve productivity by enhancing information accuracy; reducing human error in picking; increasing the speed of operations and cutting time-intensive paperwork.
News Points
- Ahmad Tea blends, packs and distributes its own brand of tea to over 70 countries.
- Infor SCE is now successfully deployed across all its warehouse operations within Ras Al Khaimah Free Trade Zone Authority (RAKFTZ), for the receipt of raw materials; picking for production; the receipt of finished goods; and the despatch of containers to customers.
- Ahmad Tea handles approximately 200 pallets per day (inbound and outbound). Data capture needs include ERP item tracking numbers and manufacturing / expiry dates.
- Given the scale of its warehouse operation and the limitations of its existing ERP system, it was clear that a dedicated warehouse management application was required.
- Now with the integration of the ERP and SCE applications Ahmad Tea anticipates a number of benefits including: improved information accuracy, reduced picking errors, increased operational speed and less time spent on administration and paperwork.
- Infor was selected as Ahmad Tea felt it had the best support infrastructure in the UAE. Infor partner Span was chosen as Ahmad also realised the crucial role of first-class local implementation and support for the project.
- Future plans include new applications for generating key documents from SCE, and employing more advanced technologies such as 2D barcoding.
Ahmad Tea Quote
"Our Ras al Khaimah factory is one of the largest tea factories in the region, and we quickly realised that we needed a dedicated warehouse management system to support the smooth running of our operations, and to enable us to maintain the best business processes," said Dr. Ali Afshar, General Manager, Ahmad Tea UK Ltd. "Infor SCE was not only the clear choice from a functionality perspective but also because of the excellent support Infor has in the region with Span."
Span Quote
"International businesses such as Ahmad Tea recognise the need for local knowledge and experience in order to get the very best out of any supply chain investment," said Kamel El-Ghossaini, regional manager, supply chain solutions, Span Group. "Working with vendors such as Infor enables us to deliver world-class technology with local implementation excellence, resulting in faster time to value for our customers."
Infor Quote
"Global supply chains demand that businesses like Ahmad Tea have the strongest processes in place, throughout all areas of their operations," said Mike Hibbert, channel manager, MENA Infor. "In a rapidly growing region like the Middle East, this is all the more important to embed best practices. To do this, businesses need focused applications that are specialised by industry and that can be integrated to accommodate rapid growth. Combined with the local expertise of Span this is exactly what Infor's been able to offer Ahmad Tea as they continue to expand in the region."

Plastic-free Sex, Part 1: Reducing Friction in Relationships
Happy Valentine's Day week. We're all adults here, right? If Burbanmom can make the astonishing admission that she and her husband like to do it (gasp!) then I'm prepared to grab that ball (NPI) and run with it. Warning: this post gets a wee bit explicit. Read at your own risk.
So I'm sitting here looking at a #3 (PVC) plastic bottle of Liquid Silk sensual lubricant. The long list of chemical ingredients includes many parabens: methyl paraben, butyl paraben, ethyl paraben, propyl paraben, as well as the preservative BHT. And this is what Michael and I are putting on and in our bodies each time we get extra specially close. The Skin Deep database gives it a provisional moderate hazard rating of 4, which is not what I'm looking for when I get in bed with my guy.
Now, I know there are natural, non-toxic water-based lubricants on the market: Firefly (formerly Nude), Good Glide, O'My Natural Lubricant, Love Lube, Sensua… Read the rest

In the August 1998 issue, I discussed the availability of some new equipment that could enhance school bus safety, and pointed out that no piece of equipment could replace a good driver and attendant training program. In this issue, I'd like to elaborate on safety training and once again remind everyone that safety also has an impact on your fleet's budget. As Senior Editor Dale MacDiarmid points out in his article "Limit Your Liability -- Before Accidents Happen," it might sound crass, but a fleet's safety record is what insurance companies call "loss experience" -- and they set premiums high or low according to that experience.
Study accident reports
As Dale and others have pointed out so many times before, the first step toward improving both your safety record and your bottom line on insurance costs is to scrutinize — I mean really look — at your accident reports, however minor. Look for patterns in the paperwork: Drivers backing into stationary objects might mean that their mirrors haven't been adjusted properly or that they need training in depth perception. Kids bumping their head or knees might mean that drivers aren't waiting long enough before pulling out from a stop. And these are only the more obvious trends that might surface if you take a little more time to play detective. On the other hand, be sure to focus on those patterns that are related to your biggest or most-frequently occurring problems. If you think that there is no thread of behavior connecting a sporadic history of accidents, make a quick check with your insurance agent or carrier to get a second opinion, then move on! Once you've got an idea of the patterns emerging, then you can design training and procedures to stop the mishaps from occurring. In addition, as Jack Burkert of Lancer Insurance points out, there is more to it than a good manual and some pep talk: managers have to mean what is said and written down. In other words, managers and trainers should have a set of rewards and disciplinary penalties in order to enforce the procedures. Otherwise, they'll be perceived as hollow, or the "latest management gimmick."
Rewards and penalties needed
Notice I also said rewards and penalties. Too often, Burkert says, policies are enforced by one or the other. As a result, they are either perceived as too harsh or wimpy. Rewards for good driving and penalties for bad habits are needed to strike the ri right policy balance. Dale also points out that more than driving behavior should be scrutinized, such as how drivers and attendants interact with kids they transport, and how innocent things can be construed as abuse or discrimination. To those important suggestions I would add that managers should look at how others fit into the safety equation. This includes a good preventive maintenance program, which can help prevent accidents. Yet it also includes a public information campaign to both parents and their kids as well as the general driving public about safe habits around school buses. You also need to remind everyone of laws governing stopping behind and, where applicable, in the opposite direction of stopped yellow buses with flashing lights. There have been far too many reports around the country of people ignoring these vital rules of the road. The start of the school year is always a good time to remind people of safety. More important than stepping up safety efforts, however, is keeping them up throughout the school year. The best safety program never stops.
