Washington, D.C., April 30, 2013 - Hanley Wood, AEC Cares, Reed Construction Data, and the American Institute of Architects (AIA) join forces to renovate the historic Beacon Place facility for the homeless on the day before the 2013 AIA National Convention.
AEC Cares will make it happen in Denver this June when it brings together leading industry professionals for a project to help the Colorado Coalition for the Homeless. ProjectDenver will mobilize architects, manufacturers and construction professionals to renovate the Coalition's Beacon Place — a Denver facility that provides housing and health care assistance to homeless and disabled men and women. The project takes place on June 19, 2013.
"Every year, Hanley Wood is honored and inspired to join with the design and construction community to transform the lives of those who need our help and support," stated Peter Goldstone, CEO, Hanley Wood, LLC. "We look forward to dedicating resources to help create a safe and sustainable Beacon Place for the Colorado Coalition for the Homeless."
The Coalition provides services for homeless individuals and families throughout Colorado. Their Beacon Place facility offers safe, stable housing specifically to disabled veterans and homeless men and women who are battling disabilities, serious medical challenges and mental illness. Beacon Place also opens its doors to adults who are suffering or recovering from illness or surgery, but have nowhere to go upon release from a hospital.
Scheduled to occur the day before the 2013 AIA National Convention, AEC Cares projectDenvertbvxwqvqdqrqdrafwyrvtdqcrzqtbbcdf will bring together Hanley Wood, Reed, the AIA and as many as 100 volunteers for the June 19 "blitz build" event. Denver-based leaders, Path21 Architecture, Layton Construction and Landwise Landscape Architecture have signed on, donating on-site skills and expertise to the project.
Confirmed speakers for the event day luncheon include noted dignitaries such as Cameron Sinclair, co-founder and CEO of Architecture for Humanity, Robert Ivy, the Executive Vice President/CEO of the AIA and Mickey Jacob, 2013 AIA President, as well as Rick Sandrock, the Homeless Initiatives Project Manager at Office of Governor John W. Hickenlooper.

Manchester United have fleshed out their plans for a Far East pre-season tour this summer with the announcement that they will take on Japan's Yokohama F Marinos on July 23.
The Old Trafford side are expected to add another game in Japan to their itinerary, and the Yokohama match will see them return to the stadium in which they won the 2008 Club World Cup, according to reports.
United, who signed Japan star Shinji Kagawa last summer, have already announced pre-season fixtures in Australia (Sydney) and Hong Kong as part of the tour, and it is thought that they will also visit Thailand.
Commenting on the club's announcement yesterday that the pre-season tour would include a fixture against Hong Kong club Kitchee FC on July 29, Manchester United chief executive David Gill said: "The club has tremendous support throughout China and especially in Hong Kong.
"We have visited on a number of occasions and after an eight-year gap it's a pleasure for the team to be able to return to Hong Kong again this year."
"We are looking forward to engaging with our loyal fans, our commercial partners and most importantly preparing for the season ahead."

Troubled Wellington property developer Terry Serepisos has been given a bit more time to convince creditors he can orchestrate an orderly sale of his assets with a surplus of some $30 million.
Associate Judge David Gendall granted an adjournment for bankruptcy proceedings against Serepisos in the High Court in Wellington today after receiving a proposal on Friday that will leave assets worth some $232.5 million in the hands of two experienced insolvency practitioners to sell them over the next few years.
Judge Gendall initially adjourned the hearing until September 12, though was convinced to extend that to September 26. Counsel for Serepisos, John Billington, initially asked for an adjournment until October 10.
That stay means Serepisos will have the opportunity to get his 27 creditors owed almost $204 million together and persuade them that an orderly sell down of his assets would be in their best interests.
"It is quite unclear to the court at this junction whether the proposal advanced by the judgement debtor could have reasonable prospects of success," Judge Gendall said.
Billington told the court the situation had reached a point where the property developer "can't deal with creditors on a piecemeal basis" and that it made sense for an orderly sell-down of the assets.
If creditors don't agree to the deal, there could be a flood of 150 residential properties and in excess of six commercial properties, primarily in Wellington, which could lead to a major depreciation in market values, Billington said.
If that happened, it would be an "economic and social catastrophe."
Creditors South Canterbury Finance Ltd. and Equitable Mortgages Ltd. didn't oppose the application.
SCF took over the bankruptcy application on August 18 after FM Custodians Ltd. withdrew its bid saying its debt had been settled.
Judge Gendall also granted an interim order until the next hearing date to prevent searching court documents without the judge's and counsels' approval.
Billington said that would prevent any third parties gaining access to commercially sensitive information ahead of the likely sale of assets.

First, airlines started charging for checked luggage that used to be included in the ticket price.
That alone is an entire new industry created in the past decade that now consumes around $30 billion worldwide in travellers' cash.
The consequence weren't so much unforeseen as "What the hell! We'll do it anyway". Being forced to pay for checked luggage prompted travellers to start bringing huge carry bags onboard that barely fit in the overhead lockers, but avoid the check-in charge.
Boarding and disembarking from aeroplanes is now chaotic. Airlines like Jetstar have been forced to provide even more overhead bin space and to reinforce existing lockers to withstand the daily wear-and-tear of use by oversized bags.
And what is the industry's reaction? Well, let's start charging for the oversized bags that travellers have been forced to bring onboard by the new fees for checked luggage.
Gouge, gouge, gouge. It's something that has a luminescent attraction to the travel industry – not just in airlines, either.
(The latest one I've heard about is the hotel "resort fee" – a compulsory add-on in places like Las Vegas, reported by US travel blogger Christopher Elliot.)
In the airline game, there's an ominous sign: despite the explosion in ancillary fees for check-in, seat selection, credit card use and baggage over the past five years, the rate of increase in the revenue from fees has slowed to a trickle.
Which means the industry is searching for the next target and carry-on fees – still resisted by most airlines – are the elephant in the room.
It doesn't matter that baggage fees are for services that cost next to nothing to provide. It's whether the market will tolerate new fees.
That dilemma is exercising the mind of the man who runs Europe's biggest low-cost carrier Ryanair, who admits he's not game to bluff travellers into paying carry-on fees for fear of triggering a backlash.
But that won't stop Ryanair CEO Michael O'Leary trying to invent a plausible excuse. The Ryanair chief executive predicts carry-on fees will become commonplace among airlines in future.
He says his airline has cut the number of passengers checking in luggage from 80 per cent to 19 per cent by steadily increasing baggage fees, saving the airline "a fortune" in fuel and handling charges.
O'Leary says checked luggage will never be completely eliminated, although he believes it is realistic to cut the total still further to just 10 per cent of passengers. "Everyone's expectation should be that checked-in bag fees will continue to rise," he told a media briefing in London last week.
So what about hand luggage fees, which have been introduced by US low-cost carrier Spirit Airlines and European LCC Wizz Air?
"That is unlikely in the short term, but it is probably something that is inevitable in the longer term," O'Leary said.
"Inevitable is perhaps too strong. I think at some point in the future it is likely that most airlines will charge for carry-on bags. I just can't get my head around how to do it."
O'Leary says he is concerned that introducing a fee for hand luggage would need to be closely managed at the gate. This could increase Ryanair's turnaround times, affecting punctuality and daily aircraft utilisation – one of an airline's key benchmarks – therefore increasing costs.
"Right now, I can't see much in it for us, apart from delaying turnarounds, but that doesn't mean that it won't develop over time," O'Leary said.
Wizz Air chief executive Jozsef Varadi recently told Air Transport World his new carry-on fee was aimed at solving the problem of excessive hand luggage, congesting the cabin and delaying aircraft turnarounds.
"It was a bold move, but I certainly don't regret the decision," he said. "Obviously there was a fear that there might be a setback on customers' reactions, but it has been taken fairly neutrally, slightly positive I would say, and we are pretty happy with that.
"I think it is a good move. I actually don't understand why other airlines don't consider it more seriously, but that's not my problem."
According to ATW, Euro MPs earlier this year called for an end to "the excessive restrictions and arbitrary charges that some airlines impose on carry-on luggage."
Fees are also causing consternation among regulators in the US, with the Department of Justice last week announcing it would oppose the proposed merger between American Airlines and US Airways – after a decade of waving through such consolidation of the air travel industry.
"The department sued to block this merger because it would eliminate competition between US Airways and American and put consumers at risk of higher prices and reduced service," said Bill Baer, the US Assistant Attorney General in charge of the Department of Justice's Antitrust Division.
"If this merger goes forward, even a small increase in the price of airline tickets, checked bags or flight change fees would result in hundreds of millions of dollars of harm to American consumers."
"Who will call an end to this fee madness?" writes Christopher Elliot. "Not the government, which has taken a hands-off approach. Not the companies, which can't resist the revenue fees bring in.
"Only one person has the ability to end this revolution: you."
With Tigerair embarking on an ambitious growth phase in Australia, there's no doubt the competition with Jetstar will keep a cap on new ancillary charges Down Under for the time being.
But what eventually becomes standard in the rest of the world will eventually make its way here.
What is your strategy for avoiding fees? Have you noticed new fees popping up in areas other than air travel, such as hotels and car hire? Would you avoid an airline that charged for carry-on luggage? Post your comments below.

Rugby players who practice meditation regularly will find they are or have: - More confident during competition. - Reduced stress levels. - Better capacity to concentrate for long periods for time. - Lower muscle fatigue. - Faster recovery times after competing or training. - Overcome nervousness better. - Control their emotions under pressure. What more can you ask for as a rugby players? When considering unlocking their true potential most athletes focus on physical and nutritional goals but often overlook their inner potential through practices like meditation and visualization. It's common to want to see physical benefits from physical exercises but what many athletes don't know is that meditation has been proven to improve physical health and performance.

Attaching a Slatted Partition Wall
I would like to add a small poplar partition in between my living room and kitchen. The wall does not span the width of the room. I will need to attach it to the ceiling and the floor which is laminate hardwood. Any ideas on how I should do this? Here is what i want it to look like below.
I would use aluminum square tube framing system like the ones supplied by Outwater plastics
Go to www.outwater.com and search aluminum framing system
click on http://www.outwatercatalogs.com/sear...framing+system
This is a 1" square tube and you can also get the corner connectors for fast and easy assembly. Use at least three vertical posts so as to keep your slats straight.
Consider using a maple plywood and then edgebanding the edges with matching wood tape. Unless you use well seasoned lumber, the slats will tend to bow
Assemble the frame from floor to ceiling and attach the slats with a coach bolt and an acorn nut on the back.
If you don't want to fix this structure permanently, you can use a corner connector that has a thread for a adjustable leveler. Cut the aluminum frame a little shorter and install the levelers. Unscrew the levelers until the frame lifts and expands to the opening between floor and ceiling. Use rubber pads so that there is no chance of it falling or moving if pushed against.
We would use this method as store fixtures in clothing shops.

Mycotoxins in the 1995 corn crop
In 1995, the Iowa ear rot and mycotoxin survey conducted by the National Agricultural Statistics Service and the USDA National Veterinary Services Laboratory was expanded to include samples from Illinois and Missouri. A total of 639 samples were collected from fields near harvest and analyzed for aflatoxin, fumonisins, vomitoxin, and zearalenone. Iowa samples also were examined for symptoms of ear rot.
Because of dry summer weather, Gibberella ear rot was much less prevalent than in the past two years, appearing in only 4.2 percent of the Iowa samples. This fungus can produce vomitoxin and zearalenone. Fusarium ear rot was very prevalent, as it was in 1993 and 1994, appearing in 88.7 percent of the samples. Average severity of Fusarium ear rot was slightly greater in 1995 than in previous years. This fungus can produce fumonisins. Aspergillus, which can produce aflatoxins, was found in only a few samples.
Mycotoxin levels were low, especially in the Iowa samples. Results are shown in Table 1, below:
For fumonisins, levels below 5 ppm are generally considered safe. For vomitoxin, levels below 1 ppm are generally considered safe. Only one sample contained aflatoxin above the regulated limit of 20 ppb. This sample was not from Iowa. Only one sample had a zearalenone concentration higher than the recommended 1 ppm.
These results indicate that serious mycotoxin problems were not common in Iowa in 1995. Nevertheless, there were isolated cases of corn deliveries that were rejected because aflatoxin concentrations were greater than 20 ppb. Additionally, a few cases of fumonisin poisoning of horses were reported in 1995 in Iowa. I do not know if these were associated with 1995 crop or stored corn

Low Income Medicare Recipients Face Problems
A federal program that pays monthly premiums for low-income people with Medicare will expire on November 20 unless Congress moves swiftly to reauthorize the program.
"People with Medicare are facing the steepest increase in Medicare premiums starting on January 1," said Robert M. Hayes, president of the Medicare Rights Center. "The Congressional leadership and the Bush Administration have pledged to protect this vitally needed program. But the clock is ticking."
Beginning in January 2005, the Medicare Part B premium will increase 17.4 percent to $78.20 a month ($938.40 annually), up from this year's monthly premium of $66.60.
About 156,000 older and disabled Americans, with incomes between 120 to 135 percent of the poverty level, and assets below $4,000 for an individual and $6,000 for a couple in most states, will lose their Medicare premium support if the Qualifying Individual-1 (QI-1) program is terminated. The QI-1 program is one of three Medicare Savings Programs that helps low-income people with Medicare lower their out-of-pocket health care expenses.
"There is broad concern that the federal government may drop this ball. If they drop the ball, many older and disabled Americans will be badly hurt," Mr. Hayes said.

Flying history's new home: Madras Airport
WWII planes moving from Oregon coast to new hangar
MADRAS, Ore. - The group that owns the Tillamook Air Museum is moving its planes to Central Oregon. The Erickson Group plans to build a 65,000-square-foot hangar at Madras Airport to house a fleet of firefighting air tankers and store the collectables.
The airport already is rich in aviation history. The original two hangars were built back in 1941, to train B-17 and P-39 Cobra pilots for the war.
"You can actually still see the mud in the rafters up here and the footprints of the guys who were actually walking around up here," Airport Manager Robert Berg said Friday. "We all are pilots and mechanics, and love World War II aircraft and history."
This summer, the company will begin construction on the new hangar. The 25 warplanes from the Tillamook museum should start arriving in early 2016.
One plane in the collection is a P-38 Lightning, which was made famous by Central Oregon pilot Rex T. Barber.
"That's the type of aircraft he used in the shoot down of General Yamamoto in World War II," Berg said, "which is one of Central Oregon's famous ties to World War II."
In a news release, the Erickson Group said it hopes to eventually display the collection of the vintage aircraft.

It still doesn't work is not really descriptive enough to help us figure out
what's wrong. You should explain what you mean by that. Do you get an
error message? Is the calculation not giving you the result you expect?
Either way, the point still stands that you do not have to loop through your
variables to do this. All your loop appears to be trying to do is tell
Stata to calculate your expression separately for each observation, which is
what Stata does anyway.
See -help egen- for an explanation of how rowmean treats missing values. As
explained there, it will calculate the mean over all the non-missing. If
you're getting a value of zero (when that isn't the mean of the non-missing
values) when there are missing values, then something is probably wrong with
your code.
-egen avg=rowmean(x1 x2 x3)- should get you exactly what you say you're
looking for.
The loop you're trying to write, on the other hand, will always calculate
the mean wrong any time there are missing values because you would need to
divide by the number of non-missing values rather than always dividing by 7.

Hello and thanks for the message.
The reason I loop over the data is because sometimes only 3 variables have
an observation.
When I use rowmean then it treats the outcome as 0 if at that row not all
observations have a value. So to clarify, I want to obtain the average in
this way:
x1 x2 x3 avg(x1 x2 x3)
. 1 2 1.5
2 2 3 7/3
4 . . 4
I tried it btw now with 'i' but it still doesnt work???
***** calculates average expretage
drop ravgexpretage
gen double ravgexpretage = r1expretage
forvalues i = 1/30659 {
replace ravgexpretage[`i'] = (r1expretage[`i'] + r3expretage[`i'] +
r4expretage[`i'] + r5expretage[`i'] + r6expretage[`i'] + r7expretage[`i'] +

You will get a note on your door daily. We got our truck stuck in the snow and the manager came out yelling saying we needed to get our truck out of the way NOW. NO HELP AT ALL. Pay the extra money and go across the street! You will be much happier!!!
Date of Stay: May, 2011
WE LOVE THIS RESORT!!! We had our whole family here: 2 adults and 4 children! Staff was very friendly. We felt like part of the family. This resort has everything. There is no need to go anywhere, as you have everything you need right here. There are activities during the weekend for adults and children. People who live here full time take time to get to know you. GREAT FEELING when traveling. The staff goes above and beyond for you. I got a snake bite while I was here and everyone at the parked helped out. We had several people bring over food for breakfast, lunch and dinner so I wouldn't have to cook. We will be here every summer for vacation! Thanks Whispering Pines staff and neighbors!

Bizarre Story Of The Day
Former Tennessee Titans cheerleader Elizabeth Leigh Garner is facing charges of sexual battery and solicitation of a minor after being accused of following a 12-year-old boy into a bathroom, fondling him, and then trying to seduce him while at a friend's house visting.
In the police report, Garner states that "she was drunk that evening and that she got the boy confused with a man that was also at the residence."
NewsChannel5.com | Nashville News, Weather
Last year, former Bengals cheerleader Sarah Jones (27) was indicted for having sex with a 17-year old, then appeared on Dateline in October admitting that she and her now-18-year old "victim" were dating and in love.
Things won't likely end up similarly for Garner who is 42 and married, however.

Rearz is a company committed to inventing and bringing innovative, affordable, sustainably manufactured cloth diapers and accessories to you! The Rearz product line includes a full range of sizes, including adult!
Rearz offers a variety of cloth diapers for baby including the Smitten Fitted that I had the opportunity to try with W. Before I go into the details about this diaper, let's appreciate the obvious. It is red! I adore red diapers. I suppose the only drawback is that the Rearz Smitten is a fitted so it needs a cover and you don't see the actual diaper. Still… it's red!
We received a size medium Smitten which is designed to fit between 14 and 22 pounds. I was a little concerned because W had already gone beyond the 22 pound guideline when I received the diaper but was pleased to discover that it still fit him. The Rearz Smitten comes in 4 sizes: small (6-15lbs), medium (14-22lbs), large (22-40lbs), and extra large (over 40lbs).
Besides the color, another thing I love about this diaper is that it is velour! I am a huge fan of velour diapers because they are so soft and they are usually pretty cute too!
This diaper comes with aplix closures which works well for us. The laundry tabs are placed fairly close to the tabs and have not been as effective as the tabs on other diapers but it has not been that big of a deal.
Some of the features highlighted on the Rearz website are:
- one of the only fitteds on the market with a back, customizable pocket opening
- tongue design for faster drying time
- large aplix tabs
The pocket opening is a nice feature because it does allow for additional inserts if you are trying to use it overnight or have a heavy wetter. The tongue design does lead to a quicker drying time due to the ability to separate the soaker slightly from the rest of the diaper. While the laundry tabs are not my favorite, the aplix tab closures are generously sized and I do like that feature.
Despite my concerns over the sizing, we did get a good fit on W. In this photo he weighs approximately 26 pounds. The rise is fairly average and we also got a decent fit around the legs.
I was able to use this fitted underneath a variety of covers without a problem. As far as fitteds go, this one has a trimmer fit than many that we own. W can only wear the Smitten fitted during the day because he needs to be changed after about an hour or we risk a leak. Absorbency has increased slightly as we have put it through multiple washes but he often wets a lot and very quickly so that may be our challenge.
The important thing to remember is that the Rearz Smitten is a fitted diaper and needs a diaper cover. It is not waterproof on its own!
Formula Mom Disclosure: I received a free product for review purposes. However, all opinions and experiences are 100% my own.

Register Here The mountain dulcimer is a simple 3 or 4-stringed instrument with a unique fretboard that is easy for the novice to successfully begin playing songs with just one lesson, and fun for all levels of musicians to explore its many possibilities. Considered an American folk instrument, the mountain dulcimer is associated with the southern Appalachian mountains and is related to some European instruments from Medieval times. Participants in this immersive program will be treated to a close-up concert presented by the instructors and will then break into three groups based on skill level: Beginner, Basic II, or Intermediate. The Beginner level is for those with little to no prior experience. Basic II is for those with some experience, who should be able to tune their dulcimer and play a few songs. Intermediate is for the player who is ready to explore different tunings and strumming techniques, and has some experience with chording and making harmonies on one string or more. Each group will have three master sessions, led by each of the instructors. Then all participants will come together for a duets session where each of the instructors will teach a duet and small ensembles will form to practice playing them. The closing session will be an opportunity for those who wish to present duets or solos in a round-robin fashion. You do not have to own an instrument--mountain dulcimers will be available for students to use.

India's Coal Plant Plans Conflict with
Paris Climate Commitments
India will not be able to meet its Paris Climate Agreement commitments in the coming years if it carries through with plans to build nearly 370 coal-fired power plants, a new study finds.
"India is facing a dilemma of its own making,"
said Steve Davis, associate professor of Earth
system science at the University of California,
Irvine and coauthor of a new study published in Earth's
Future, a journal of the American
Geophysical Union. "The country has vowed to
curtail its use of fossil fuels in electricity
generation, but it has also put itself on a path
to building hundreds of coal-burning power plants
to feed its growing industrial economy."

Aside from showing a buyer round your home and wondering if the dog has messed the carpet, there is nothing quite so inherently risky as inviting investors to watch your club in action.
Nevertheless, after three months of negotiations, Ken Bates invited four investment bankers from Bahrain to cast their eyes over Leeds United, a nice little runner with too many careless owners. Leeds almost found a way to embarrass their chairman, racing into a two-goal lead that, after the softest of headers from Dexter Blackstock, they did their best to squander.
When it was announced there would be six minutes of stoppage time, there was a pantomime gasp around Elland Road. Perhaps it was echoed in the directors' box.
However, it was the announcement that followed that suggested why Leeds, even in their shakiest moments, may be worth investing in. The attendance of more than 24,000 was almost double the figure at Blackburn on Friday night.
The Bahraini involvement was described by Bates as an "investment" rather than a takeover, although a fair proportion of that crowd would want the 80-year-old to sever his association with Leeds completely. "The potential investors are looking to conclude things as soon as possible," said Bates in a statement. "Both parties regret missing the August transfer deadline but we are planning for the January transfer window."
Neil Warnock, managing a squad depleted by injury and under-investment, would welcome any increase in funds.
A sometimes difficult man himself, Warnock has often excelled in working with footballers who do not conform to the ideal of team spirit. He brought Joey Barton to Queens Park Rangers and then enticed El Hadji Diouf to Yorkshire.
Here was why. First there was a delightful, delicious cross that evaded everyone, struck Michael Tonge as he stood on the back post and rebounded to Luciano Becchio, who drove it into the roof of the net. A beautifully weighted pass from Diouf found Becchio and, although he was tackled by Daniel Ayala, the ball broke once more, this time to Dominic Poleon, a teenage graduate of the Leeds academy making his full debut. His finish suggested quite a future here.
Warnock, however, thought there was still too much negativity around Leeds emanating from the club's supporters.
"I read one of the local papers, they asked 10 Leeds fans and only two thought we'd win," he said. "One thought we'd lose by six. I have never read so much rubbish with my egg and bacon and I'd like to thank all those miserable Yorkshiremen for spurring me on."
Leeds (4-4-2): Kenny; Peltier (Varney, 66), Pearce, Drury, Lees; Byram, Austin, Tonge, Poleon (White, 65); Diouf, Becchio (Gray, 89).
Nottingham Forest (4-4-2): Camp, Halford, Ayala, Collins, Harding; Coppinger (Sharp, 83), Blackstock, Reid (Lansbury, 46), Moussi (McGugan, 46); Gillett, Cox.

Date of Stay: September, 2011
Decided to stay here due to all the positive reviews. Campground is nice but not the best. Wi-Fi is OK if needed. Stayed in the loop near stream, site 63#. Sites are tight when crowded. Nothing really to do in the area other then to go see the wolves.
Date of Stay: August, 2011
Very tight. Great hookups power/water/sewer, cable didn't seem to work. Canoe trip - Great time store - Nice store with everything you need, plus pizza.
Date of Stay: August, 2011
Nice Park to stay in, large site and power/water hookups. Not bad for a county park.

College-Level Examination Program (CLEP)
The College-Level Examination Program (CLEP) allows students who have gained college-level knowledge outside the classroom to take examinations for possible college credit. Each exam is 90 minutes long and is made up primarily of multiple-choice questions. Some exams include an essay; however, UW–Madison does not require the essay for any CLEP exam. Credit will be granted only to those students who have completed fewer than 16 semester hours of college credit when the examinations are taken. Students must earn a minimum score of 65 to receive credit. The scores for awarding credit at the University of Wisconsin–Madison do not necessarily match those recommended by the American Council on Education.

Financial statements and the death of Osama January 31, 2013 at 5:06 am
Or, why Baudrillard can teach us more about accounting than Descartes
The Epicurean Dealmaker confuses us thus:
accounting is … an epiphenomenon to the actual day-to-day activities which any business conducts. It is a way to keep track of the financial outcomes of a firm's true activity, which is conducting business.
Why this isn't false, per se, it is deeply unhelpful. That is because it suggests that there is somehow an underlying `real' business which `real' managers, the kind who wouldn't know a statement of cash flows if they were threatened by one in Central Park, someone live and breathe.
Things are rather different. First, as Baudrillard taught us, the way to think of meaning is not as imbuing some ineffable connection to the real, but rather as a web of reference. In other words, there's no real business, there is just a collection of actual and conceivable management reports. Management can't manage `the real business' because there is no such thing. They can and do manage (and become seduced by*) signs of business. That's all.
In this light, the current criticism of bank accounting (see, for instance, Partnoy and Eisinger) can be read as an objection to its relationship to other accounts. DVA in the P/L means that US GAAP is substantially different from management accounting, for instance. What the readers of financial statements want to see is something that is closer to not the truth but rather to the narrative that managers have constructed to give themselves comfort. They want an albeit redacted and dramatised precis of what really happened in the situation room, not Brave Zero Thirty.
*Doesn't this account of seduction remind you of the games management play?
Baudrillard's concept of seduction is idiosyncratic and involves games with signs which set up seduction as an aristocratic "order of sign and ritual" in contrast to the bourgeois ideal of production, while advocating artifice, appearance, play, and challenge against the deadly serious labor of production. Baudrillard interprets seduction primarily as a ritual and game with its own rules, charms, snares, and lures.

Rachael Flatt Our most reliable athlete, she can be counted on to put out a 175 point competition every time out. That's about 20 points shy of the Olympic podium.
Alissa Czisny You know how people say, which skater will show up, the good one or her evil twin? With Alissa you have to ask that separately on each jump.
(Wait, wait! I am not saying that Alissa's lovely and talented twin sister Amber is evil…)
Caroline Zhang. I don't have anything to add that hasn't already been said in the 75-page, 1116-post, 67,673-view thread that we already have going.
Ashley Wagner. We haven't seen her yet this season. Could be a dark horse?
Mirai Nagasu She could be the one. She had her sophomore slump last season and could come out loaded for bear.
Sasha Cohen? I really do not expect her to compete this year. Skate America should tell the story.
The field. Will anyone else make a statement in the Grand Prix or U.S. Nationals?
After seeing the top international lady rattle off 210 points at Eric Bompard, the only advice I can give our hopefuls is just to keep your eyes on the prize – making the U.S. Olympic team. Once there, represent! Anything can happen. Ask Sarah Hughes.

The Willamette River is the shining gem of the greater Eugene area. This living artery of our landscape winds along 187 miles from the Cascade Mountains to the Columbia River and then to the Pacific Ocean. Along its route it pumps life to our valley in the form of Salmon and Osprey, Eagles and cottonwoods. It bestows upon us nutrients for our valley farms, and clean water for our communities. Our Willamette River is special, and the urban riverfront we have so little of is a priceless asset to our community.
Our riverfront is the place where we can commune with nature, just steps from our classrooms, offices and storefronts. It is an anytime adventure in our backyard, and quiet solitude when we need it. It's a place to show our visiting friends and family, and space to call your own. From picnics and sports, to sunbathing and smiles, and to training wheels and marathons….for a thousand other reasons, this is our Willamette riverfront.
Over the past century riverfront development has been given to industry, largely for easy disposal of wastes. Countless communities around the Country have been cut off from their waterfronts for decades – if not centuries. But, this is changing. Within the last few years, everywhere, communities are beginning to take back their priceless waterfront properties. They are restoring crumbling industry buildings into public places, and reconnecting people to majestic natural features. Once again, people are learning to coexist, with all of life, on the riverfront.
Eugene has this opportunity today. However, a mid-1980's plan is dimming our shining future, and with it the quality of life of generations of Oregonians to come. We now have the opportunity to make lasting, positive change to our public riverfront and to the greater Eugene metropolitan area.
Let it be known: The Oregon Research Institute is a wonderful organization and an asset to the Eugene community and the University of Oregon. The Oregon Research Institute is an American psychology research institute that manages the International Personality Item Pool, the Development of Advanced Measures of Personality and Other Individual Differences. The IPIP was born within a personality item-writing project organized by Wim K. B. Hofstee and his colleagues and students at the University of Groningen in the Netherlands, it's now a public domain and is used at higher education and in GED practice testing.
However, the current direction taken by the ORI management and board of directors – in insisting that the riverfront is the only place that meets their needs for new construction – leads us to question the integrity of their often-cited democratic and environmental values. Though home-grown ORI is comprised of members of our community, with their current construction project it appears that they do not share our community's shared vision for open space and civic space along the banks of our majestic Willamette River.
In place of a publicly accessible tract of land on the University's riverfront, ORI is pushing for a private office building and a large parking lot. In place of connectivity and integration, ORI is pushing for the construction of a site that in no way relates to the people of Eugene, nor to the river on whose banks it will stand.
ORI building obstructs connectivity
The proposed ORI building will seize a pivotal site in our community's greater vision, and is contrary to our shared goals of connecting the downtown to the University campus at an inviting public space on the Willamette River. By occupying this site, the ORI project preempts the physical, visual, and symbolic connection between Downtown, the River, and the University. Importantly, the adjacent property, now owned by the Eugene Water and Electric Board (EWEB), is in a public master planning phase for redevelopment into shops and cafes intermingled with an ecologically sensitive public plaza at the River's edge.
It is unclear how the ORI bulding will relate to publicly-developed EWEB property plans, as there has been little or no collaboration between teh two entities. Sadly, construction of the proposed ORI building and parking lot on the adjoining property would preclude future efforts to maintain and improve a continuous corridor of civic space and open space and wildlife and pedestrian corridor along the banks of our great river. Furthermore, the placement of the first building north of the railroad tracks will undoubtedly open to the door to future developments in the riverfront sector of the Research Park.
The proposed ORI building, in a rendering done here by Connecting Eugene from ORI preliminary plans, is slated to have up to 200 parking spaces surrounding a 200 by 100-foot office building towering four stories within 100 feet of the riverbank. The proposed building for their 250 employees will be approximately 80,000 square feet and will replace ORIs current locations in the Riverfront Research Park and along Franklin Boulevard, within half of a mile to the east of the proposed site.
This proposed parking lot and office building will lie at the critical intersection of 8th St. and Alder street, leading from the Park Blocks downtown and the western border of the University district, respectively. Significantly, Alder street is in the planning stage of becoming a bicycle boulevard to improve pedestrian connections from the University to the river, and City funding has already been identified for the project.
Oregon Research Institute director Cynthia Guinn has repeatedly defended the decision by the ORI board of directors to seek to develop the riverfront site. In her appeals to the Eugene public she has primarily cited the planned LEED (meets sustainable development criteria) certification of the building, to be built on Willamette River flood plain.
According to Guinn, ORI has looked at half a dozen other sites, but found riverfront development on University land to be cheapest. Though development would be funded by Trammel Crow Company, one of the nation's largest developers of shopping malls and big box stores, Guinn says that building an office building and parking lot along the riverfront matches her group's values.
Recent History of Development and Conflict
When signing a ground lease in June 2009, the University expected to break ground in August 2009 and begin construction of a parking lot and private office building on the banks of the Willamette River. The Oregon Research Institute had secured a $17 million investment from national real estate and development firm Trammel Crow Company to construct a building at a suitable site within the Riverfront Research Park at the University of Oregon.
In essence, the University would lease the public land to Trammel Crow Company for at least 55 years, who would construct and own the building. Oregon Research Institute would then lease space within the building to house their operations. At the time, Oregon Research Institute had also found funding from a governmental organization and hoped to buy in to a portion of the building to the tune of approximately $5 million.
The timely expiration of the 20-year Conditional Use Permit for the Riverfront Research Park in October 2009 provided a potential mechanism to stop development and to require the development of a new Riverfront Master Plan with meaningful public involvement. In October 2009, the University applied for a 3-year extension to the Conditional Use Permit, issued to the University by the City of Eugene in 1989, in order to begin development on the banks of the Willamette River. The extension was quietly granted by the City.
Connecting Eugene, realizing that a greater vision was possible for this site, came together and hired a lawyer from the Western Environmental Law Center to fight their case in court. Since the purpose of a conditional use permit is to require completion of a project within the current planning and land use framework of the city, Connecting Eugene filed an appeal to the City of Eugene Planning Department.
We claimed that surrounding conditions had changed significantly in the intervening 20 years, epitomized by the construction of the Federal Courthouse, the development of the EMX rapid mass transit, and the public redesign phase of the EWEB site, since the issuance of the Conditional Use Permit. The case was heard on January 20, 2010 at the Eugene City Council chambers.
On February 22, 2010, Connecting Eugene and the Eugene community learned that they had lost their appeal the city planning department. The hearings official Jeff Litwak found that, due to inconsistencies in the permit documents, the original 20-year conditional use permit did not expire until 2012, 23 years after its issuance. Though the University had requested an extension to their expired permit, the City planning department had deemed that document unnecessary. According to the decision, the University had 3 years to begin construction, and 20 years to complete construction—a total of 23 years allowed for a 20 year permit.
The final solution:
The Oregon Research Institute (ORI) broke ground in late December following an agreement between the University and the community to allow the construction of a new building between the Millrace and Willamette River.
The new 80,000-square-foot building is projected to cost $17 million and will be completed in December 2012. Founded in 1960, ORI is an independent, nonprofit research center that primarily studies human behavior.

I occationally run into some mean bees that require gloves. I have had an allergic reaction (eyes) to what I believe was some yellow die in a inexpensive pair of leather gloves. I need a new pair. Who sells the best bee gloves?
I occationally run into some mean bees that require gloves. I have had an allergic reaction (eyes) to what I believe was some yellow die in a inexpensive pair of leather gloves. I need a new pair. Who sells the best bee gloves?
I have no idea who sells the best ones. But if you're allegic to the yellow die in some leather ones, maybe you should try something besides yellow leather. [img]smile.gif[/img] Some have plastic ones, but they are hard to do any dextrous work in. I had some from 3 beekeepers that were grey goatskin leather with canvas gauntlets that I liked a lot. The leather was thin enough to work well and thick enough to be pretty sting resistant AND they weren't yellow. It sounds like your real criteria is that they aren't yellow leather. [img]smile.gif[/img]
Some people use all sorts of things from latex surgical gloves to platex dishwashing gloves. I have elastic on the sleeves of my bee jacket and I can tuck most kinds of gloves under the elastic (or better yet put them on before I put the jacket on). In the end different people seem to prefer different things. Experiment a bit and see what you like.

I bought a pair of the economy leather gloves from Dadant. They are grey leather and very nice to work in. I like them. They listed for something like $8.95. Work for me.

I have been using leather gloves but they really get messed up when doing cut-outs. Washing them makes them so hard the barely bend. Applying leather softner works eventully but turns your hands colors when you sweat.
This year I went to Lowes and bought the heavy latex lined disposable gloves. I REALLY like them, and they are pretty durable. I bought two different types, one was about three dollars and the other was five-ish.
I used one pair all day opening over forty hives doing inspections and never got a sting and my hands didn't get very sweaty at all.
The only annoying thing to me about rubber gloves is that the propolis builds up and they get sticky. But a hand (glove) washing with dishsoap takes care of that.
Bullseye Bill in The Scenic Flint Hills , KS
how often do ya'll wear gloves?I was not planning on using any at all,but do have a pair from Mann Lake, but seem very big then kind that goes up to the elbow,w/ vents half way up.So far have no need.
If you build it they will comb it.
Tim Rolan
I don't use them often but some hives I do. I have good luck with the canvas type from dadant for about $6 It says they are not washable but I have washed them 3-4 times before they wear out.
Todd Zeiner
Michael, I really wanted some pink leather gloves with no dye, but there seems to be a current shortage of both yellow and pink cattle. Thanks to all for the input.
Why not just put the gloves on and wash your with dish washing soap over and over till the dye is gone, rinse and wring out and set the gloves outside to dry then soak and liberally coat the gloves with olive oil rubbing it in to the leather. I use goat skin gloves and this seems to work. Hope that it helps you too.
"Younz" have a great day, I will.
i just got a pair of vented gloves from "dandelion" http://www.beesource.com/cgi-bin/ubb...c;f=7;t=000075 which are very nice and of high quality, his jackets are also top notch.
throw in fast shipping and he is hard to beat.
NH Beekeeper
Maybe it's not the gloves that your allergic to. Anytime I work the hives if I touch anywhere near my eyes--usually without realizing---my eyes begin stinging, burning, itching, watering. I have to suspend work, find water, wash well with soap and water. Don't know what it is but it is intense and overwhelming.
Thanks beeman202,maybe you are right, never had a problem before. 3 doctor trips so far and I think I have it under control. I tossed the gloves, maybe I should have washed em better like powernapper suggested. Great suggestion nhbeekeeper, thanks.

I have a set of Westars from Shockwave that I agreed to finish and pass on to a needy Jango Fett. I will document the work in this thread along with a critique.
First.... the casts look good. They are a one piece cast so that makes some of the finish work a bit tougher, there are some tight corners on the Westar. There were some minor blemishes and pin holes in the cast but nothing more than I have seen on many other products. One of the cast were broken at the back. I repaired the break with a dowel. I drilled both sides and then glued the piece back on with the reinforcement.
They are now drying from the first layer of primer. There will be some more prep work before they are ready for silver paint and R+B.
Pics will follow.............

Kram Ecap: help .cant remember how to put my Acer aspire 5100-5033 back together after fixing bios cosmos
R`shaune: My case is cracked and cause the dc is break, do you know where i can get a new case for my acer aspire 5251
Multiman369: i buy that from uk.laptop.repairs at ebay
Astro Funk Man: hey i was wondering were you picked up the extra jack mine is broken and cracked so i need to find another one
Multiman369: @PreciousPitty you need to disassemble completely to see if power jack is soldered on motherboard or not,if it is it will be harder to repair cause removing power jack from motherboard usually is a pain, the easiest way is using a desoldering gun as vacum and a 65 or 70 watt iron solder to melt solder , use flux to help melt the solder,good luck .
PreciousPitty: Need help please, do you know if the aspire one netbook D260 dc Jack is soldered in? I was able to disasemble my computer and got as far as the Jack but had a really hard time trying to get it out, I didn't force it cause I know some of these models are and some arn't. Any help appreciated (first timer taking apart my netbook)
Multiman369: @natecar101 You should try both the desoldering wick and the plunger and always keep clean the tip of whatever type of irons you are using , some jacks are more difficult to remove than others.
natecar101: any tops on removing the pins for the jack?

The Tigers parted company with Brown yesterday after a run of four successive defeats which left them second bottom of the Barclays Premier League.
Saturday's last-gasp 2-1 home defeat to Arsenal left them three points from safety with nine games to go.
Chairman Adam Pearson revealed last night there were "about five" managers on the shortlist for the job and the club were probably looking to appoint someone on a deal until the end of the season.
Former Charlton and Crystal Palace boss Dowie appears to be the most likely choice.
The 45-year-old has had stints in charge of Coventry and QPR since his ill-fated spell as coach of the Addicks came to an end in November 2006, while he has most recently worked on the coaching staff at Newcastle.
An announcement on the Hull manager is expected soon with Pearson planning to have the new man in charge for the next match against crisis club Portsmouth at Fratton Park on Saturday.

I signed my son up and paid in full for 6 months. One month later, the owner, Pamela Fitzerman, pulled me in the office and was asking for more money for a program that my son clearly was not ready for. It is obvious she is all about the money. In doing my research, I found out this used to be a USA Martial Arts school and all of a sudden she switched the name of the school. In speaking to other parents, it seems she has repeatedly done bad business. Steer clear from this school.

Ronaldo to marry for a fourth time
Brazilian legend Ronaldo, 37, is to marry again after his girlfriend Paula Morais accepted his proposal on her 28th birthday.
Il Fenomeno only retired two years ago after battling issues with his weight and will be a key part of the build up to the 2014 World Cup hosted in his native Brazil.
The former Barcelona, Inter, Milan and Real Madrid striker scored 62 goals in 98 games during his international career and was married four times within the span of 18 years -- ending his recent seven-year marriage to Bia Anthony last December.
However, the star is taking the plunge again and posted a message on Twitter after Morais, who works as a DJ, accepted, saying: "Love you, Paula Morais."

Our spring break tradition for the past four years has been to visit my sister and her family in DC. One of our favorite things to do while in our nation's capital is visit the monuments and the Smithsonian museums. Each year, the boys get more and more into the sites. It's so fun to watch their little brains work as they take it all in.
By the time we woke up, ate some breakfast, and took the Metro to the Smithsonian stop, our toddler was only two hours away from his nap time. Nevertheless, we were able to achieve some of our site-seeing goals.
At the National Museum of Natural History, We visited the t-rex the triceratops, the pterodactyl, the wooly mammoth, prehistoric miniature horses, and stood in awe in front of a shark's mouth, among other things.
Next we headed to the National Air and Space Museum to see "planes and rockets" as the boys kept saying. This is one of my favorite museums of all. They have so many historic planes, shuttles, and aeronautic gear/paraphernalia. It even houses the original plane flown by Orville and Wilbur Wright. Both boys were especially impressed with the older planes and one polar plane that had wooden skies on it. In the picture below, they are looking into a cockpit at all of the controls.
I don't like to spend an absurd amount of money on souvenirs, but the kiddos had been so good all day that we told them we would buy one item from the Air and Space Museum. It ended up being the best $18 spent in the last month. Both boys were mesmerized by their souvenirs…and still are. A bonus is that the word "Smithsonian" is printed on them, so we can at least remember where they came from.
We walked around for a bit longer, but just could not quite make it to Mr. Lincoln. With one complaining that his legs hurt and the other squirming so hard in the stroller that it almost flipped over, we just decided it wasn't worth it. Our five-year old, Brooks, remembers it from his last trip to DC. We'll have to make sure our toddler, Case, sees the 16th president and the reflecting pool next year.
All in all, it was a great day. You can't go wrong with learning about national and natural history while spending very little money and making family memories. Thank you, DC, for a great week!

What is in this article?:
- The devil is in the details
- Choose the lowest horsepower fan and vary the speed
- Eliminate the need for reheat
Eliminate the Need for Reheat
Modern VAV systems do not reheat cooled air. In the winter, ventilation air is delivered to zones at temperatures needed to serve zones calling for cooling. Heating in perimeter zones is limited to times when primary airflow is based only on ventilation demand. This requires careful zoning, added perimeter insulation, heat recovery from warm ceiling plenum air, and demand-based ventilation control.
Other tips for eliminating the need for reheat include:
- Adding enough inexpensive insulation to the building envelope until the heat loss through the envelope at outside temperature below winter design is less than the heat gain of the occupants and other internal loads in perimeter spaces. Morning warm-up heating may still be required, but this can be supplied before cooling load is present.
- Having shrunk the perimeter-heating zone as much as possible, use separate air handling units for each heating zone exposure and separate air handler(s) for the interior.
- Recover heat in the ceiling plenum using fan-powered boxes on the perimeter.
- Activate mechanical heat only when cooling flow is at its minimum to satisfy ventilation requirements.
- Use high-induction diffusers to reduce stratification. All VAV diffusers must be high induction to deal with flow variations.
- Use the lowest possible minimum-flow setpoint. It must be the higher of the minimum ventilation requirement or the lowest allowed by the VAV diffusers (10 percent of design airflow).
- Use supply-air-temperature reset. An increase in supply-air temperature will require a larger volume of air, but the higher supply temperature will eliminate (or minimize) reheat. Good zoning and perimeter insulation makes this unnecessary, but where simultaneous heating and cooling in one air system is unavoidable, use modeling to find the ideal compromise between supply temperature, reheat energy, and fan energy.
- Increasing the use of fan energy to lower the use of central plant energy cannot be justified, except when also reducing reheat. One method is to reset supply-air temperature during cool weather and size interior zones for 60°F or higher supply air. Supply-air reset may not be beneficial in warm climates and in high-humidity locations where alternate dehumidification may be required.
Small Zones Improve Comfort and Reduce Overcooling/Overheating
Try to provide a VAV zone and a thermostat for each occupant. This can be done cost-effectively with diffusers that incorporate temperature-control dampers.
For Lowest Pressure Drop in VAV System—Use Low Supply-Air Temperatures and Temperature Reset
Large components, smooth transitions, unobstructed fan inlets, and fully developed fan discharges matter. Ducts can be smaller if design supply temperatures are lower. This approach, coupled with supply-temperature reset, saves enough on ductwork to fund many other attributes of HPAS without driving installed costs too high.
Select the largest coil that can fit in the space. Coils should have a minimum waterside delta-T of 15°F and face velocities between 300 and 450 fpm.
- Use the largest filter bank that can fit in the space.
- Select low-pressure-drop extended-surface-area filters.
- Minimize fan-system effects with an unobstructed inlet and a straight run of duct or an elbow in the direction of the fan rotation at the outlet.
- Use the minimum duct liner only when necessary for sound attenuation. Avoid sound traps by selecting larger, quieter, more efficient fans and using components with low face velocities.
- Place the shafts close to the air handler.
- Deliver air from rooftop units inside an insulated roof curb to avoid ducts outside the building envelope.
- Size for 800 to 1,200 fpm closest to the air handler.
- Consider multiple air shafts for large floor plans.
Supply-Air Ducting
- Use leak-tight, aerodynamic round duct designed using static regain to reduce fan load and duct pressure. In many cases, this means using round or oval duct with gasketed connections and fittings.
- Use multiple home runs to a discharge plenum. This saves space, money, and energy.
- Make ducts as straight as possible with a minimum of transitions and joints.
- Use large-radius elbows and low-pressure-drop fittings and takeoffs.
- Size for 700 to 1,200 fpm or pressure drop no greater than 0.08 in. wg per 100 ft.
- Limit use of flex ducting to a maximum of five feet at diffusers.
- Use duct liner only where necessary for sound attenuation. Avoid sound traps.
VAV Diffusers
- Size VAV diffusers for low static-pressure drops: between 0.25 and 0.05 in.wg.
- Size VAV diffusers as large as possible, especially at the end of the duct run, for the lowest possible pressure drop at design airflow.
Balancing Dampers
No balancing damper should be installed before the last VAV diffuser (alternatively that the balancing damper before the last VAV diffuser shall remain open) so that the system will be balanced at the lowest possible fan speed.
Return Air
- Provide at least one return-air grille for each VAV zone, more if the zone is large.
- Size return grilles for pressure drop no greater than 0.08 in. wg.
- Use ceiling return-air plenums (except in high-humidity locations, such as DOE climate zone 1). Seal ceiling plenums for minimum air infiltration.
- Size return ducts for pressure drop no greater than 0.04 in. wg per 100 ft.

When I was a child I had even eyelids, even eyes, as I got older I notice my left eyelid was normal, but the eye itself was droopy, and my right eyelid decided to be all weird and the fold itself became smaller, it would not fold right at the end of the eye, I will include a picture, but i have days idk how this happened, that my right eyelid folds correctly and looks normal but my left eye still looks droopy. How can i make my left eye open up more, and my right eye lid to fold normally?
Uneven Eyelids Ptosis? Lazy Eye? (photo)
Doctor Answers 4
Eyelid ptosis and how it affects the "normal" eye
You have classic ptosis of your left eyelid. This can be do to muscle weakness of something called the levator muscle or the Muller's muscle. Another possibility is poor connections from your levator muscle to certain structures of your eyelid that hold it open. This would account for your lack of a crease on the left or the high crease you have.
How does this affect your right eyelid? I'll tell you. The weakness in your left eyelid is recognized by your left eye and brain. The brain sends a signal to both eyes saying "open wider". The left can't really respond and your right responds too well. So it looks higher and the crease looks deeper and asymmetric. It's called Herings Law
How do you treat this?
You would want to do a ptosis repair on the left eyelid but only after you've done a patch test. Cover your left eye for an hour with a gauze. Don't let any light in. See how much your right eye corrects on its own. That will tell me how big or small of a surgery to do on the left.
The left eyelid can be corrected via an external incison (most reliable). You would have a small incision that would heal great. Other option is to do with through the underside of your eyelid. Advantage is you don't have an external incision. Disadvantage is it may not move your lid up enough.
Dr. Chase Lay
Web reference: http://chaselaymd.com/Ptosis.html
Ptosis or upper eyelid drooping
Ptosis refers to drooping of the upper eyelid. Eyelid position is a very complex mechanism, it is determined by the shape of the eye and face, function of the muscles that lift the eyelid, vision, height of the oppposite eyelid, and an intact nervous system. From your pictures, it appears as if you have ptosis of the left upper eyelid, which can affect the right upper lid crease depending on how droopy the left upper lid becomes during the day and as you get tired. The most important thing would be to first determine the cause of the drooping eyelid because there are certain medical conditions that can change the eyelid position, that are treated medically not surgically. Once the cause has been established, if surgical correction is desired, the eyelid can be lifted into the optimal postion to improve the symmetry and improve the lid crease height on the opposite eyelid. A good place to start is with an evaluation by an ophthalmologist to give you a complete eye exam, then to surgical specialist, such as an oculoplastic surgeon (an ophthalmologist who trains in plastic surgery as it pertains to the eyes and face) who performs ptosis surgery.
Eyelid Ptosis
When patients develop unilateral eyelid ptosis, the opposite eyelid has a sympathetic response that results in the eyelid being elevated to a higher than normal level. This is the open eye phenomena that you describe.
Repair of eyelid ptosis can be performed under general or local anesthesia. A variety of techniques can be utilized to correct this problem. The technique chosen will depend upon the patients specific anatomic deformity.
If you're concerned about eyelid ptosis, consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon is appropriate. This surgeon should be able to outline a treatment plan that addresses your anatomic deformity and achieves your aesthetic goals.

from the photos it is difficult to say.. you should see an oculoplastic surgeon or plastic surgeon with experience in ptosis repair. the problem may be on the left side only .. the muscle may not be working well or need to be tightened this will change the fold position. but the right side may needs some treatment as well
