The Wool Products Labeling Act of 1939 requires anyone who manufacturers or sells products containing wool to accurately label each item with the fiber content and origin. Federal Trade Commission regulations further clarify the size, text and location of labels required under the Wool Products Labeling Act. Violations of the Act can result in seizure and destruction of mislabeled goods, civil fines and/or criminal penalties.
The Wool Products Labeling Act, 15 U.S. Code Section 68, defines wool as the fiber from sheep or lambs, as well as fiber from Angora or Cashmere goats, camels, alpacas, llamas and vicunas. Only products containing the wool from these animals must comply with the terms of the Wool Products Labeling Act. However, products containing fiber from other animals must comply with either the Fur Products Labeling Act, 15 U.S. Code Section 69, or the Textile Products Identification Act, 15 U.S. Code Section 70.
The Wool Products Labeling Act applies to virtually all consumer products that contain any quantity of wool content. The Textile Products Labeling Act exempts many items from general textile labeling requirements; however, if these otherwise exempted products contain any portion of wool, they must be labeled under the Wool Products Labeling Act. Wool fiber that has been previously used must be labeled as recycled. Manufacturers may choose to label nonrecycled wool as New or Virgin Wool.
Fiber Content
Wool products, like most other textile products, must be clearly labeled to disclose the fiber content by percentage of the fiber contained in each item. While other products do not need to disclose fibers comprising less than 5 percent of an item's content, all wool content must be disclosed, even if it's less than 5 percent. Manufacturers may label products that are comprised of 100 percent wool as either "100% Wool" or "All Wool."
Wool Other than Sheep
Items comprised all or in part of cashmere or other nonsheep wool may be labeled as "wool" or by the specific designation such as cashmere, camel, or alpaca. However, if the product is not 100 percent Cashmere or other wool fiber, the label must specify which portion is sheep's wool and which portion is the nonsheep wool fiber. Most manufacturers will choose to clearly identify the cashmere or other specific fiber rather than simply label the garment as "wool" because these fibers have significant added market value. Fiber from other animals may be included on the label if designated as "hair" such as "Angora rabbit hair."
Label Text
All text on a Wool Products Labeling Act label must be clearly readable, and must be the same size and typeface. A manufacturer can not, for example, put the word "camel" in large capital letters and then list other contents, such as wool or rayon, in much smaller letters. Each type of fiber must be listed in equally sized type along with its percentage of total content.
Country of Origin
The Wool Products Labeling Act requires that items containing wool identify country of origin as well as fiber content. Only products which are completely manufactured in the United States may include the "Made in USA" label; strict regulations govern the required labeling text for items manufactured in the United States of imported materials or fiber.
Label Location
Wool garments with necks, such as sweaters, dresses and jackets, must include the country of origin information on a label near the center of the garment neck, and fiber content information either at the neck or in another conspicuous location like at a side seam. All other items, such as blankets and skirts, must have the label in a conspicuous location. Other information such as care instructions can also be included on the same label. The label need not be permanently affixed but it must not come off or smear easily before it reaches the consumer, who is free to remove it if desired. Socks need not have a sewn-in label if the package in which they are sold is clearly marked with the labeling information.

A batch of the newer MD-83s of TWA is reportedly (source: US register/Aviation Letter) already operated by American Airlines. I thought that TWA as it is now (maybe a bit trimmed by quickening the withdrawl of the DC-9s and 767-200s) would remain as such till January 2002 and would be intregrated at once.
The ex TWA MD-83s which are reported to American, are N9630A, N9615W, N9616G and N9617R. Can someone confirm or tell anything about their current status; are they repainted in AA's colours, used on AA's network, or still with TWA?

Major freight railroads in the United States employed 152,486 workers as of the middle of September 2016, down 0.17 percent from the previous month and 8.7 percent year-over-year, according to data from the Surface Transportation Board.
RoadOne IntermodaLogistics has acquired Milford, Conn.-based C & V Transportation in an effort to expand its operations in southern New England and the Port of New York and New Jersey, the company said in a statement.
The deferred airfreight transportation services and drayage provider's third quarter 2016 net income fell 24.2 percent to $11.9 million compared with the same 2015 period, according to the company's most recent financial statements.

Aviation industry officials and governments are expected to finalize a global climate change agreement at the International Civil Aviation Organization's 39th Assembly in Montreal, which begins today, according to the Air Transport Action Group.
Historically low ocean freight rates have caused carriers to implement cost-cutting measures that have reduced reliability, meaning shippers need to be more flexible in how they procure capacity.

Best of '15: Hunkalicious Screen Beauty
Our Year in Review party continues! Cue mood music.
Since The Film Experience obsessives over actresses almost daily, the actors could use a little spotlight from time to time. So this entry into our year in review party is a beauty break starring the year's best man candy in cinema ...with a little TV thrown in for extra flavor.
15 A superhero... but which one?
Any of The Avengers will do but if actors are going to be expected to be on special diets and grueling workout routines daily for those spandex ready bodies, you'd think Marvel would let them go shirtless for more than 10 seconds each movie. Chris Evans is still the most delicious among them but we'll give this round to Paul Rudd for the sleeker non-steroidal fitness regimen (which we hope becomes more the norm because Henry Cavill's Superman body is so cartoon weird; it's like a giant chest and shoulders with random stick appendages and face).
Runner up goes to Chris Hemsworth When Wet: in that silly pool of visions in Age of Ultron; shipwrecked and starving but still somehow maintaining the workouts in In the Heart of the Sea; or even just those carefully wet stray Blackhat bangs
Fourteen more people or categories after the jump. But fair warning... it's slightly nsfw. So it's a good thing you're on Christmas break. In the immortal words of Tina Belcher...

Child victims of sexual exploitation in the Philippines have a right to claim compensation from their foreign exploiters. But it is imperative to ensure that any compensation funds will be allocated in the best interests of the child, and will not provide a further incentive to abuse more children. That is why we went to the Philippines to hold a Community Dialogue Forum involving local community leaders, parents, police, social workers, and faith leaders, to discuss the causes of the growing child sex abuse problem in their community, and to discuss ideas around community-led approaches to managing compensation funds which involve using them to pay for sustainable recovery and prevention programmes for children.
The purpose of the forum was to encourage discussion and the exchange of ideas, and to brainstorm possible ways of ensuring access to justice for child victims. The morning session started with some brief presentations to set the context and to provide necessary background information for discussion. The afternoon session consisted of group exercises based around key questions that ICRP were keen to pose to the community.
Download the report from the forum here: ICRP Philippines Community Forum March 2015
The International Child Redress Project (ICRP) is an organisation working to ensure that all child abuse victims have access to civil justice.
We aim to provide advice and support to empower local communities to recognise and advance children's rights. We will further this aim by using domestic and international legal instruments, grassroots advocacy, educational tools and dissemination of knowledge.
We use the principles of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child as a guide to our work. By using a child rights focused approach we aim to connect children everywhere with their right to be heard and protected from abuse and exploitation.
The child focused common aim of a worldwide network of professionals can only be achieved by engaging communities to understand the nature of the challenges they face that enable the exploitation of children to occur. We aim to provide legal assistance to child victims who would otherwise be deprived of remedies.
Our work draws on the expertise of academics, lawyers, medical professionals and NGOs to achieve our objectives. We intend to link such professionals worldwide to further our common aims.

Corey Webb: Pees in Courtroom During Trial Break
Corey Webb: If you're going to pee in court, might as well get caught on video doing it.
Signs your trial is not going well: When the judge says to you, "I don't know how you were raised, but peeing in a trash can in a state district courtroom is inappropriate behavior."
That quote, which surely will go down in judicial history alongside "with all deliberate speed," was uttered by District Judge Kerry Russell in a Tyler courtroom yesterday to 17-year-old Corey Webb, who just had to go, you know?
Webb was on trial for shooting at a peace officer during an escape attempt from a juvenile facility. He'd already shown a somewhat casual attitude to the judicial process, being reprimanded for mumbling loudly during attorneys' arguments and asking the judge if he could fire his lawyer.
And then, according to KYTX:
After her testimony, the court broke for lunch. Right as the jury was ushered out Webb unbuckled his pants, walked over to a trash can and urinated in court. The judge had this to say to Webb:
"I don't know how you were raised, but peeing in a trash can in a state district courtroom is inappropriate behavior. This is the second conversation we've had. There won't be a third."
After the break, Webb entered a guilty
pee plea on the original charge.

My wife and I had always been active in our community and wanting to learn more from like-minded people we made the decision take a year out from business and study at a reputable college in West Sussex.
Following the sudden collapse of the UK shipping empire I acted as an independent consultant to a number of key UK clients on a contractor basis in the area of organisational restructuring and asset stripping.
Shipping was on the downturn and the Board decided that we should enter the world of VCs. At the time COLI had lost a substantial amount on a poor investment decision. I was asked to apply due diligence and as a result of my work and my instatement as MD, COLI VC broke even the next year and we entered a substantial profit the year following.
Respected independent Liner Shipping Agents and Brokers for all types of marine transportation in cross trades and chartering of all kinds of project and heavy lift cargoes.
While acting as intermediary during a particularly difficult dispute between a UK blue chip and a significant company in Saudi Arabia, I resolved two things both the dispute and my next career step when I accepted an offer to work directly for the MD of COLI UK as chief liaison. Thereafter began an extensive training regime culminating as Director Special Operations for UK and in 1985 a shareholding directorship.
Team of independent's who were at the forefront of the non-conference shipping boom.
Rather than being limited to small freight forwarding contracts I successfully managed the Agency coalition to many recognised Liner Shipping Agents and Brokers for all types of marine transportation in cross trades and chartering of all kinds of project and heavy lift cargoes.
My accountancy knowledge and natural business curiosity proved invaluable and I finally took the role of General Manager with direct responsibility for Sales & Marketing.
Team of predominantly American Management Consultants who worked to support the introduction of VAT into the UK as a pre-condition to joining the then EEC, now the EU.
Initially a part-time role from College, during which time I predominantly typed up reports and presentation material prior to meetings and conferences. As time progressed and their demand increased, I joined them full-time. Recognising their appeal, I subsequently opened and ran their commercial division.
The Public School where I spent time studying and gained early knowledge to prepare for my professional life.

Start with Why
How Great Leaders Inspire Everyone to Take Action
by Simon Sinek
Get eBook
- Your price$9.99
You'll see how many points you'll earn before checking out. We'll award them after completing your purchase.
The inspiring, life-changing bestseller by the author of LEADERS EAT LAST and TOGETHER IS BETTER.
In 2009, Simon Sinek started a movement to help people become more inspired at work, and in turn inspire their colleagues and customers. Since then, millions have been touched by the power of his ideas, including more than 28 million who've watched his TED Talk based on START WITH WHY -- the third most popular TED video of all time.
Sinek starts with a fundamental question: Why are some people and organizations more innovative, more influential, and more profitable than others? Why do some command greater loyalty from customers and employees alike? Even among the successful, why are so few able to repeat their success over and over?
People like Martin Luther King Jr., Steve Jobs, and the Wright Brothers had little in common, but they all started with WHY. They realized that people won't truly buy into a product, service, movement, or idea until they understand the WHY behind it.
START WITH WHY shows that the leaders who've had the greatest influence in the world all think, act, and communicate the same way -- and it's the opposite of what everyone else does. Sinek calls this powerful idea The Golden Circle, and it provides a framework upon which organizations can be built, movements can be led, and people can be inspired. And it all starts with WHY.

Why you should read "Start With Why"
I have been both a student and teacher or Shared Vision for some years now, and I always struggle to put into words what happens when a team reaches a state of Shared Vision. The magic that occurs is difficult to describe. Simon Sinek manages to describe from an individuals perspective what I find happens on a high functioning team: they know "why" they are doing what they are doing. It is about a shared understanding of purpose that isn't about "how" or "what"' but about why. I think the Liberal Party has a lot to learn from this book. No matter how many times we say that we know what we stand for, sometime during the mid to late 90s we lost the "Why". We need to get the why back if we ever hope to win back the hearts and minds of Canadian voters. I think a lot of my business friends would get a lot form this book as well. It is strange to me that no matter how successful the businesses that "Start With Why" are, it seems like the primary role of the professional business person is to shift the why to how and what. These really aren't new concepts or lessons. Anyway, I really enjoyed this book, and the TED talk that put me on to it: http://www.ted.com/talks/simon_sinek_how_great_leaders_inspire_action.html. Give it a watch, and then give the book a read.by Brian on December 23, 2012

Insightful and Knowledge Based Read
I really enjoyed this book for its knowledge and insight into the general running and operation of a business. It also helped me distinguish my own why and my "how" people. If you have an open mind you can take a lot of information from this book.by Chelsie on January 03, 2015

Why I liked it
The reading of this book took place during an interesting time of my life, my umpteenth existential crisis. What better way to revitalize yourself and regain your raison d'être by asking yourself some big questions like, why do you get up in the morning? Although a bit repetitive, Sinek really drives the message home for me and my workplace. What does success really mean and how will you know if you get there? These are two fundamental questions that really help me probe my own WHY. I recommend the TEDtalk but if you need a little more inspiration, you'll definitely find it even by simply glossing over these pages.by Peter on January 05, 2013

The current goal of the German establishment is to please the Americans and keep business with the Russians afloat at the same time. The Germans now try to present the Nord Stream-2 gas pipeline as a purely commercial project. The pipeline will be built, despite the anti-Russian hysteria in Poland, Latvia and Ukraine
Preliminary analysis of results of the US presidential elections shows that the chances of America's remaining calm after 8 November make up only 5%
The US presidential candidate from the Republican Party Donald Trump claimed that Hillary's Clinton plan on settlement of the situation in Syria would lead to the Third World War.
Unfortunately, our country-fellows make headlines both inside and outside Russia when something negative comes up. It may relate to such subjects as arms trafficking, prostitution or something else. Not that long ago, numerous reports were made about the case of Russian citizen Svetlana Zakharova, who was arrested in the United States
Nadiya Savchenko, a member of the Ukrainian Parliament, the Verkhovna Rada, arrived in Moscow on October 26th to take part in the hearing at the Supreme Court of Russia on the case of two Ukrainian nationals. In 1994-1995, they fought in Chechnya against Russian federal forces. Today, they are considered heroes in Ukraine
A numbr of significant international developments have recently occurred indicating the extreme danger of a nuclear war breaking out at any time against Russia and its Eastern alliance. The current threat level to every human life on this planet even surpasses the October Cuban Missile Crisis of 54 years ago
The Wall Street Journal wrote that ISIS posed no serious threat to the US and could be annihilated by the Western coalition in some days. Mark Helprin believes that Washington should be afraid of Iran.
On 24 October the US Navy ship Carney entered the Black Sea. Carney is the Arleigh Burke-class destroyer and is equipped with the Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense System.
Five countries outside the EU, but the ones that support the policy of Brussels, have extended sanctions against Russia for another six months. The list of these countries includes Ukraine, Montenegro, Albania, as well as Liechtenstein and Norway. All the discussions about easing the sanctions have been pushed back till the summer of 2017
Thirty-two years ago, Ronald Reagan allegedly made a joke during a live broadcast that the nuclear bombing of the USSR was going to start in five minutes. What about all the recent statements from Western politicians about the need to shoot down Russian warplanes in Syria? This is not a joke at all, not even an understatement
The idea about the destruction of the universe is based on the hypothesis of vacuum instability. Any system in our world has a certain amount of potential energy. For example, a ball on top of the hill under the influence of gravity tends to release the energy and fall much lower, to thus become "stable"
According to The Boston Consulting Group, the company that specializes in management consulting, the top ten of world's best companies in the oil and gas industry includes three Russian companies. The fifth place on the top 10 is taken by Tatneft, the eighth position belongs to LUKoil
Joseph Stalin's grandson Yevgeny Dzhugashvili appealed to Moscow's Ostankino interdistrict investigation department with a request to initiate a criminal case for the rehabilitation of Nazism against the authors of the textbook on history for students of the tenth grade

"did anyone else have to swear on a bible that their address was correct before they were able to vote? just wondering, because i did," Philadelphia voter Lindsay Granger wrote on her blog after voting in last Tuesday's mid-term election. "i had to lay my palm on the good book and state my name and address before i was allowed to sign my name in the voting log and enter the booth. they called it an affirmation. i call it creepy… and a little offensive…"
Granger notified VotersUnite.org last week after the incident which, she told the non-partisan election watchdog organization, made her "extremely uncomfortable because i'm not a Christian, and when i brought that up I was told to do it anyway."
In her blog item, Granger, an African-American, admitted to being "hypersensitive" given "the historical context of black people voting in america".
When informed of the incident, Bob Lee, the Voter Registration Administrator for the Philadelphia City Commissioners, confirmed to The BRAD BLOG that Bibles are, indeed, included in the package of election materials provided to each polling site, but says no such oath is required before casting a vote.
The incident reportedly took place at Philadelphia's Ward 15, Division 01 polling place at Trinity Baptist Church on Poplar Street. It was Granger's first time voting at that precinct after having moved recently from another area in the city.
Lee conceded that, based on Granger's description of the incident --- which he hadn't heard about until we contacted him for comment --- it sounded like the election board at the precinct "needs some training"...

We know we work the best when we have a peaceful mind, a place devoid of clutter and noise. But sometimes the echoes of our past failures fill our thoughts and crowd out the focus and clarity we need to move forward.
"While you are proclaiming peace with your lips, be careful to have it even more fully in your heart." - Francis of AssisiTweet It!
We all have these echoes of past failure: the times we thought we had something great and it fell apart, the times we did our best and it did not measure up, or the times something unexpected wrecked our plans completely. Normally, our minds use various ways to frame the past, both the good and the bad. Through internal narratives and filters, we amplify the positive and mute the negative to make us feel better about ourselves.
But for a moment, let's reverse the settings on those knobs. Let the negative get a little louder and the positive get a little quieter. Now go look hard at those times we came up small or short. Is there a theme? Is there some common thread that connects things together? If there is, take a breath and pull on it a bit. Do more ideas or memories move with it? Can we learn something more by spending time with something painful so we can grow and step forward? It is hard, but you can. You can make peace with that failure, and take ownership of it.
"In life, it doesn't matter what happens to you or where you came from. It matters what you do with what happens and what you've been given."
Ryan Holiday, The Obstacle Is the Way: The Timeless Art of Turning Trials into TriumphTweet It!
Why should you do this? That failure is a part of you. The project that failed, the job you lost, the relationship that ended. You thought of it, you made it, you shared it, and it did not work. Instead of hiding our eyes and heart like we usually do, let's embrace that failure for a change. Now this is not celebrating the failure, but it is having an honest relationship with it. It means going to a place where there are no lies about what happened or excuses for yourself. It means finding a peace with that failure so you can make something beautiful from it and move forward in life.
Now go—find the strength to make peace with your past. And then, put that peace with the past to work. Let it quiet your fears and calm the noise of the present. And with that peaceful mind and heart, go create, take that next step and make something wonderful for someone else.

Hannah Jean Kahn applies Elizabeth Scalia's book "Strange Gods" to a few difficult life lessons involving sexual abuse, unemployment, and other traumas.
Browsing: Catholicism
The reason to remain Catholic, for Margaret Rose Realy, Obl. OSB, comes from a depth of love that grew out of hate.
Bishop Robert Barron explains that the Church is best conceived, not as a congregation of like-minded people, not the"Jesus Christ society", but rather as the prolongation of the Incarnation across space and time.
Catholic Q&A: Essentials of the Faith Explained is a compilation of 676 questions – from Catholics, Protestants and non-believers – along with Fr. Ray Ryland's thoughtful, deeply insightful, and often witty answers.
Kaye Park Hinckley observes that, when we have to defend something dear to us, we grow to love it even more. Here she explains what keeps her Catholic.
Roxane Salonen answers the question first posed by Elizabeth Scalia on Patheos regarding the draw of Catholicism, and ends up discovering something special about her own journey, just in time for Father's Day.
The Dogma Dogs teaches the basics of the Catholic faith through fun songs that even parents might love.
Mr. Pearce was reflecting all our darker selves, and the yearning we have to be whole, good, and just.
Fr. Robert Barron's Catholicism Pilgrimage Journal from Word on Fire represents a new approach to formation that is truly intergenerational.
Laura reflects on what "home" means to her both physically and spiritually.
Allison Gingras shares a very enlightening front door exchange with visiting Jehovah Witnesses, and she also provides a brief review of the Answers 4 Catholic app, a study and apologetics app.
As a stop along the book tour for the release of Father Barron's Catholicism in paperback, Lisa Hendey shares a look at one of the book's most challenging chapters.
Ginny Moyer shares an inside-the-Church perspective with a precious new Catholic.
It is nice to have a more agile, popular, and vigorous image of the Pope to capture the imagination of…
So, you or someone you know is thinking about becoming Catholic? Maybe you're still unsure, but you want to start…

It appears to researchers that diagnoses of autism are increasing, even beyond predictions by experts.
Over a four-year period in the last decade, the documented prevalence of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) rose significantly in four New Jersey counties. Researchers used data from 2006 and found an increase from 10.6 children per thousand in 2002 to 17.4 children per thousand.
The prevalence rose for both boys (17.0 to 28.7 per thousand) and girls (from 4.1 to 5.9 per thousand). ASD varied by ethnicity with white-non Hispanics recording the highest levels. Hispanic and Asian children were approximately equal.
Walter Zahorodny, PhD, of the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (UMDNJ), says the rises in ASD are in line with those measured when similar methodology has been applied in other states. Children in New Jersey are not at higher risk.
"New Jersey has long been a leading indicator of general ASD prevalence because our stat was out front early in its ability to recognize symptoms in schools and health care settings," he explained. "As diagnostic skills become more sophisticated in other states, we are finding that they, too, are seeing higher numbers."
These numbers are surprising, though, and exceed projections and expectations. "In various parts of the United States, overall ASD prevalence is approaching two percent," Zahorodny stated. "In the past, scientists predicted the prevalence rates would ultimately level off around one percent."
Further research is needed to determine which factors have contributed to rises in ASD and whether the prevalence will continue to rise or level off.

Depending upon the spad session log error above, either the incorrect deduplication engine password was supplied or an invalid password was supplied.
The NetBackup Administration Console Media and Device Management | Credentials | Storage Servers | Change Storage Server | Properties uses DSM (Disk Service Manager) to communicate with the MSDP media server's RDSM (Remote Disk Service Manager) via NBRMMS (Remote Monitoring & Management Service) which in turn communicates with the NetBackup Deduplication Manager (spad) process. Hence the logs to focus on are DSM on the administration console system, RDSM/NBRMMS on the MSDP mediasvr and lastly MSDP mediasvr spad session logs.
If the spad session log reports 'No such user', consult the <dedup_path>\log\pdde-config.log on the MSDP media server, note the 'SPALOGIN =' line which contains the name of the media server deduplication engine account supplied when the MSDP media server was initially installed/configured. This accountname must be supplied after the '-sts_user_id' argument in any 'tpconfig -update -storage_server' or tpconfig -add -storage_server' command.
If the spad session log reports 'invalid password' consult the administrator who initially installed/configured MSDP for the password. If this is not possible, contact Symantec Support for further assistance.

Joseph Olinger, PhD, founder of Biomedic Research Group, has been in the hair-replacement and hair-restoration business for more than three decades. His knowledge of chemistry and nutrition has helped him develop support systems for a multi-theraputic approach, as well as preventive health initiatives to keep strands from jumping ship. In the mid-1990s, he started exploring the use of lasers in the battle against balding. These noninvasive devices can be used at home or in a clinical setting, and Dr. Olinger eventually started offering them in his Biomedic clinics.
