Back pay is coming for furloughed federal workers. A January 1 percent pay raise was part of the budget measure that ended the partial government shutdown. Joe Biden even visited federal offices bearing muffins.
But however much those gestures might help to lessen the sting of a 16-day government shutdown, federal managers will still face a range of emotional, technological and logistical hurdles as they try to reestablish the day-to-day flow and get their teams back to work. Many federal employees say they are happy to be back on the job and invigorated to be working again.
That could quickly change shape, however, as reality sets in. Managers will need to rethink how to prioritize an overwhelming backlog of work, and manage the office politics of workers who now know whether they are considered essential or not.
And all of this must be done amid the emotional uncertainty of whether it will happen again come January, when another budget deadline looms. "Some people think of this as workers coming back from a 2.5 week vacation," says John Hudak, a fellow with the Brookings Institution's Center for Effective Public Management. "But the way I like to think of it is people coming back from a 2.5 week bereavement leave." The emotional turmoil of the shutdown for many federal workers, he says, has been "agonizing," especially coming after sequester cuts, years of pay freezes and so much recent anti-government rhetoric. "The federal workforce has literally been victimized."
The first thing leaders will need to do, public management experts say, is the exact opposite of what feels right given their overflowing inboxes.
"Put aside the tasks and repair the relationships," says Robert Tobias, director of the Key Executive Leadership Programs at American University's School of Public Affairs. Federal managers should spend time reconnecting with their team, acknowledging that the first few days will be a time to vent. The biggest emotion people are going to feel is anger, Tobias says, and "the only way to deal with anger like that is to name it and to make it discussable—to make it okay to feel that anger."
Shortly thereafter, however, he says managers will have to start wading through the sea of work that washed up in everyone's absence. Simply expecting people to "do more with less" or slog through all those tasks isn't leadership, Tobias says. It is the managers' job to re-prioritize the work, tell people what can be put off for later and reallocate some work to people who have less on their plates. "That's a significant leadership responsibility that is often ignored," he says. Telling people to get it done "will feed anger as opposed to mitigating or ameliorating it."
One thing working in federal managers' favor is that much of the anger is directed outward rather than at those within the organization. "Emotions won't be directed at their peers," says David Costanza, an associate professor of organizational psychology at George Washington University who has consulted with government agencies. "They'll be directed at Congress."
Still, there are bound to be some federal employees who resent being called non-essential, as well as others who have been working every day and disdain those who've had time off to "furlax," as some have called the furlough experience. To get both sides past these politics, Costanza suggests focusing people on what workplace psychologists call "superordinate" goals, or team goals that everybody can unite around and work toward together. It should be mission-driven, but specific enough that it also feels concrete and attainable.
Another way to bring people together, says John Palguta, the vice president of policy for the Partnership for Public Service, is to make them part of the solution. Managers should get workers' feedback on redundant steps that can be eliminated, processes that can be streamlined or work that can be simplified at a time when there is such a profound crush of things to do. "Let them manage up," Palguta says. "We need to be welcoming employees back, but we also need to be asking for their feedback."
That should help not only in cutting through the huge stack of work, but in preventing employees from checking out of their jobs. The shutdown has already prompted some federal workers to rethink the security of their careers, and Palguta expects the turnover rate among the federal workforce to continue to tick up. He's already hearing about private employers who see this is as a good time to try to poach talented employees who may be viewing their government jobs more warily.
The biggest worry, however, isn't really how many workers will leave. It's how many of those who stick around could become actively disengaged from their jobs. That's especially the case given there's another budget deadline looming just after the holidays. The only way to manage that uncertainty, Tobias says, is for leaders to speak openly about it and remind workers why they came to the federal government in the first place. Still, he admits he is "pessimistic" about the effect that unease will have on federal worker engagement: "A lot of people aren't going to acknowledge this is a crisis."

We had to say goodbye recently to our beloved dog Rocky. He was the sweetest dog ever. And we had nick-named him The Pillow Dog because anywhere he saw a pillow, he would go lay on it.
Rocky developed diabetes in the early spring. Then he got bit by a copperhead snake. He developed several health issues that couldn't be fixed because of his diabetes. He lost his eyesight two months ago. Basically, his health had gone downhill very badly this year.
He will be so sorely missed. And now his brother dog Max who had been with him his entire life, is left alone. We are giving Max lots of extra love and attention to help him adjust to Rocky being gone. But we will forever have a spot in our hearts for sweet Rocky.

The Fault in Our Stars is about Hazel Grace Lancaster, a long-term lung cancer victim. She regularly attends Cancer Kid Support Group, finding it incredibly boring until a superbly attractive plot twist by the name of Augustus Waters turns up.
Hazel and Augustus gradually fall in love and together they travel to Amsterdam to meet Hazel's favourite author, Peter Van Houten. But when they get back, Augustus is tragically diagnosed with cancer as well.
The Fault in Our Stars was incredible because of Hazel's detailed descriptions of life with cancer and the impressive range of vocabulary but the book was also devastating, heart-rendering and beautiful.

Practice areas & skills: Bankruptcy & Debt
A bankruptcy attorney can help you manage personal or business debts you are unable to pay. Bankruptcy laws allow people and businesses to (1) get a "fresh start" by relieving most debts; and (2) repay the money owed to all creditors as fairly as possible. When you file for bankruptcy protection, all other legal actions against you are put on hold. Creditors cannot sue you, garnish your wages, repossess your car or home entertainment system, or start or continue with a foreclosure action against your home. There are different types of bankruptcy filings and each has its own advantages. Since bankruptcy can significantly impact your future purchasing power and credit rating, you should see a bankruptcy attorney to make sure the benefits of filling bankruptcy outweigh the consequences.

The Russian connection: See all our coverage | Read about our investigation
VIRAL McCAIN....It's true that David Ignatius, Richard Cohen, and the Washington Post editorial board have become members of the Enough Club recently, all of them penning sad notes about the decline and fall of John McCain ("He has become the sort of politician he once despised," says former McCain groupie Cohen). But a friend emails to say that what's important isn't whether they say it, but whether anyone reads it. And judging from this morning's "Most Viewed Articles" list on the Post home page, people are reading it. And emailing it too. The McCain campaign has evidently decided that it's going to pretend not to care what anyone else thinks, but it looks like there's a chance that this won't work after all. Perhaps my faith in human nature will shortly be restored.

Shoaib Malik reined himself in so well in Colombo yesterday that he scored his maiden Test century and saved the game.
The Pakistan off-spinner and one-day dasher turned Test opener to grind out an unbeaten 148 in over eight hours to guide his team safely to 337 for four, 121 runs short of the notional target set by Sri Lanka in the first Test. But he had his full share of luck: Steve Davis refused a very adjacent lbw shout and on 94 Rudi Koertzen incorrectly gave him not out for a catch behind.
"It is a missed opportunity but I am not disappointed," said Sri Lanka's captain Mahela Jayawardene. "To fight back from 32 for five to be pushing for a win was a decent performance."

Damien's Stupid Apology
"I owe you an apology," he said then paused for a second before correcting himself, "two actually."
"Damien, I-"
"Please May," he held up a hand to stop whatever it was I had to say, "hear me out." I pressed my lips together and nodded. When he was sure I wouldn't speak up again, Damien took inhaled deeply then let it out into the open with the words, "I didn't mean to ruin your Thanksgiving like this."
He chose not to acknowledge the startled, 'eh' that escaped me. That, or it had been too soft for him to hear. A strange redness settled into his cheeks that seemed out of place on his face. This was Damien - the Damien that teased the hell out of me at every given opportunity he had, the Damien that was almost always laughing or joking about something that only he truly got. Seeing him looking this serious...it made me worry. Especially when it was over a stupid reason like that.
"Showing up at your doorstep like that announced, let alone on Thanksgiving day is unforgivable."
Unforgivable? Was he back to being dramatic again? "That's a little extreme Dai," I said, giving him a small smile.
He didn't smile back. "I intruded on your family dinner with your dad. And you've barely spoken a word to me all of this evening." He dropped his gaze from my eyes and looked up at the stars above us, regret streaming onto his face. "I guess I really know how to make you hate me."
"Are you crazy?"
I couldn't stay quiet any longer after hearing those words. Damien wasn't being dramatic or sarcastic. The genuine traces of sadness and guilt in his voice were unmistakable and what prompted me to edge closer to him, close enough to place my hand on top of the one he had propped on the armrest. The unexpected contact gained his attention as he turned his head to face me, eyebrows raising in surprise.
"Damien," I wet my lips, my mouth feeling dry all of a sudden before I confessed, "truth be told, I'm really happy you're here."
My words hung in the air for a while before I spoke again, gaining no reaction from Damien whose face had morphed into a poker-face he was getting good at keeping up. He didn't believe me. He thought I was saying this for his sake.
"Thanksgiving is a hard time for me." I took my hand off of his and rested it on my lap, looking down at the surface of my palms that grew clammier as I recalled unpleasant memories. "You and Nick both probably heard from Leo about my parents situation and all. It's hard for me, and dad too, during holidays like Thank-"
"Leo never told us."
I looked up to see Damien staring at me, in an almost begrudging manner.
"But, you guys tell each other everything."
"That's what I thought too."

Here is a great reusable water bottles infographic we had made at TheWaterBottleStore.com to showcase the environmental impact of disposable water bottles and benefits of reusable water bottles. Click on image to see the full detail.
Reusable Water Bottles InfographicOctober 7th, 2014
The Negative Impact of Regular Plastic BottlesJune 16th, 2011
The Negative Impact of Regular Plastic Bottles
Research has shown harmful effects of using regular plastic bottles to the human body and yet a lot of people are seemingly unaware of the said threat. Billions of disposable plastic bottles are produced across the globe to provide convenience to everyone. It may be handy and useful at times but let's ask ourselves, is it all worth it?
Here are 3 reasons to avoid drinking out of regular plastic bottles.
1. BPA, a chemical used in production of plastic bottles has been proven to affect our hormonal system resulting to weight gain that could lead to obesity. These chemicals muck up the endocrine system. They alter the number of fat cells our body makes and the amount of fat stored in the cells.
BPA is also one of the main causes of Low Progesterone in women. Doctors have associated the consumption of materials in plastic in many progesterone related symptoms.
2. The disposable plastic bottle is an obvious threat to our weakened environment. It will take a thousand years for these plastics to decompose. Aka the "garbage patch"
3. You may not realize that the money you spent is wasted along with the empty bottles that are scattered on beaches, streets and landfills. Save money and help conserve our environment by switching to refillable containers, BPA or chemical free.
Considering the current condition of our environment that is a contributing factor to many human illnesses, it's time to get our acts together. We must open our eyes to reality and help save the world in our own little ways. Don't you think eliminating the use and production of regular plastic bottle is a good start?
Best and worst water bottlesJanuary 11th, 2011
How much do you know about the bottled water you drink? Not nearly enough, according to a new report released today from Environmental Working Group (EWG). "Bottled water companies try hard to hide information you might find troubling," says Jane Houlihan, senior vice president of research for the Washington D.C.-based research and advocacy group.
[Read more: Cities with the best (and worst) tap water]
EWG analyzed the labels of 173 unique bottled water products and company websites to determine if companies disclose information on where water comes from, how or if their water is treated, and whether the results of purity testing are revealed. The nonprofit also looked at how effective (and advanced) any water treatment methods are. Researchers followed up by calling dozens of bottled water companies to find out which ones willingly tell consumers what's in their bottles.
Where is the outrage over water quality?December 11th, 2010
Where is the outrage over water quality?
Do you know what in your drinking water? Do you know why it matters? It matters because when our drinking water get contaminated our bodies get contaminated.
What good is the nation's Clean Water Act if polluters have violated it more than half a million times in the last five years alone, if they continue to go unpunished, and if citizens suffer needless harm to themselves and their property?
Concerns over toxins are great enough that Congress and the Environmental Protection Agency regulate more than 100 pollutants through the Clean Water Act and strictly limit 91 chemicals or contaminants in tap water through the Safe Drinking Water Act, reported The New York Times, which recently reviewed water pollution records and came up with a damning report that should be raising alarms from coast to coast.

3 Easy ways to know how much water to drink everydayOctober 4th, 2010
3 Easy ways to know how much water to drink every day.
Drink water is important. Without water dehydration can sneak up quickly. Plus we lose water every time we take a breath or open our mouth.
How Much Water to Drink Per Day Everyone is different and therefore, individually, people's need to drink water can vary.
The old school rule of thumb from health professionals recommend that people consume at least (8) 8-ounce cups of water on a daily basis.
Others have suggested that men drink about 13 cups of water per day and women drink around 9 cups for good health. Naturally, the amount of water you drink each day has much to do with your overall level of activity. If you regularly go to the gym, then you'll need to drink extra water.
Tips #1 What color is your Urine?
If your urine is anything but pale yellow or clear you need more water. We suggest filling up several water bottles one day and take note how much water it takes for your urine to change to a pale yellow color.
Tip #2 Are you thirsty yet?
Even before you become thirsty, you should drink water before, during and after your workout to avoid the symptoms of dehydration. Such symptoms include not only thirst but
- headache,
- lethargy
- backache and muscle weakness.
Sometimes, many of our maladies can be overcome by simply increasing our intake of water. In fact, according the nutritional experts, the hunger pangs you feel upon occasion actually are the body's way of telling you that you need to drink water.
Tip # 3 set yourself up for success- Find "your" water bottle that works for you.
I had a relative that HATED drinking water. She would sip on coffee all day long. She would try stainless steel water bottles, bpa free plastic bottles and hated them all. She even bought her self a new glass drinking water cup but still could only get down 2-3 cups a day.
Then one day she found a glass water bottle. This was her answer, she found "her" bottle and that made all the difference! It really is important to find the right type of drinking bottle for your lifestyle.
Here is your goal: Try monitoring your water intake closely for the next month. When you drink enough, you'll look and feel better! .
One way you can keep the momentum going is by purchasing a water bottle that is made so you're assured that you're always getting a fresh drink of water. Certain brands, in particular, such as
- New Wave Enviro stainless steel and BPA free plastic water bottles
- Earth Lust stainless steel water bottle
- Vapur bpa free foldable water bottles
all make water bottles that are safe to use as they are made of materials that are free of BPA or bisphenol-A and safe, food grade plastic or stainless steel.. Don't consider using the plastic consumer water bottles, or the PET plastic, that is available for consumer water use. The plastic is not safe for reuse and can play host to a number of disease-causing bacteria. Therefore, make a commitment to finding a way to hydrate that is safe and effective. Choosing the above brands is a good beginning.
How I lost 35pds with Zumba fitnessSeptember 28th, 2010
How I lost 35 pds with Zumba Fitness
I love Zumba! I mean love Zumba. I started this past March 2010 and to date have lost 35 pounds! After my 2nd child' birth I could lose any weight, then at the suggestion of a friend I started Zumba, not only for weight loss but for a piece of mind.
March 10. 10 was my first Zumba class, I weighed 180 and now weigh 145pds. This
Zumba Weight loss was amazing! On average, I attend class 2-3 times a week ( I am a mom to 2 young kids.) Zumba is amazing. See my pictures below…
So what's holding you back from Zumba ?
- Could I dance? not so well….
- Do I have tight abs? Now I do- but at the beginning I was recovering from having given birth to my second child.
- Do I have time? Yes and no, time is relative and a choice. There are 24 hours in a day and I needed the time for myself to exercise!
Give Zumba a try don't be scared and submit your story to us…we'd love to hear how much you love exercising.

10 suprising things that our in our trashSeptember 24th, 2010
5 year old doing her part to clean up the environmentSeptember 21st, 2010
My 5 year old daughter is a Disney Friends for change addict and wanting to participate in reducing trash and saving the earth.
One day a few weeks ago we went out walking in our neighborhood to pick up trash. She decided to wear gloves and got a plastic bag and got busy walking the neighborhood picking up trash. She attached a vapur water bottle to her belt buckle and used the water bottle the entire time we were picking up trash. Here is some pictures of us with the Vapur water bottles.
We had a great time picking up trash, doing our part to save the environment ( thanks to Disney) and drinking water with the vapur bottle.

Wit's eyes bulged as the thing lunged for him, claws outstretched. It gripped his shoulders and began to drag him towards the counter. Dim ran to help, grabbing Wit's waist. The thing was stronger, and Wit was dragged further towards the counter, despite Dim's efforts.
"Fogell, come help me" she looked around and saw the boy's limp body. Stupid boy, he always had to faint, didn't he?
Adelaide moved over to help, while Nancy just stood and watched. She grabbed Wit's waist and tried to help Dim pull him away from the thing. It dug its claws further into his shoulders, ripping into the flesh. Wit screamed in pain.
"Nancy, get water!"
Nancy moved slowly, craning her neck to keep one eye on the action. She began filling a jug of water, but missed the jug and soaked her arm. Jerking around, she noticed her damp sleeves and moved the jug so it was beneath the flow of water. Once full, she grabbed a glass, filled it and began to drink.
"Nancy!" Adelaide said, exasperated.
"Oh, sorry, did you want some?" she offered the glass to Adelaide.
"No, pour it on the thing! It's made of fire!"
"Oh, ok". Nancy moved over and poured the jug of water onto the thing. It screeched and released Wit. The three fell back into a pile, landing on Fogell who had just begun to wake up. He fainted again.
The creature on the countertop was shrinking. It dissolved into a pile of mulch, which remained there on the countertop. Adelaide rose to her feet, as did Dim and Wit. Grabbing the glass of water from Nancy's hand, she poured it onto Fogell's head. The boy woke, shaking himself.
"It's ok Fogell, we put out the fire, you can wake up now" Adelaide soothed him.

Another item from the recent server room cleanout that we no longer need is a D-LInk KVM switch (DKVM-8E). I will warn you that this only supports VGA and PS2 connectors, and even the console keyboard and mouse must be PS2. I have 5 KVM cables as well (three 7', one 3', and one 15'). The switch works like a charm and has OSD with hot key switching. We have never had an issue with it but are moving to a USB KVM. I'll send you the switch and the cables if you are willing to pay shipping. Send me a PM if you are interested.

Template talk:Calendar
Dividing next two and next six months
What is the separation in "within the next two weeks" and "in less than 6 weeks" good for? Dates already are in chronological order.
And the calendar template should be as language neutral as possible, as it is included in many (localized) main pages.
IMO: It makes no sense and the heading isn't language-neutral or multi-lingual. => Get rid of it.
-- /al 07:17, 24 June 2015 (UTC)
- I don't like that division either. It's already a lot of work to keep the calendar up to date (IMHO). To move events between the sections adds even more work. --holgermappt (talk) 18:54, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
- Yeah this is a disaster for the simple job of removing past events & moving them on. It makes the whole task of updating the calendar for even organisers much harder, much easier to break the template. Please get rid of it! SK53 (talk) 20:35, 22 July 2015 (UTC)

Shouldn't we deprecate
{{Cal|speaking}}? Or what is this good for?

- Nice icons. :) I could imagine them in the calendar. Perhaps release them as PD to make clear that changing the link target to some place that doesn't provide attribution is legal? --Tordanik 19:10, 3 April 2014 (UTC)
<noinclude> tag
Instructions on how to edit (table format) this calendar template, I've moved onto the template page itself. This is possible using the nifty <noinclude> template feature. Everything within this tag, does not get included on the including pages, i.e. you dont see those intructions appearing on the Main Page. This feature is also used on wikipedia to document how a template should be used/edited. -- Harry Wood 14:02, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
I think that revisions such as this one:
14:07, 4 September 2007 Harry Wood (Talk | contribs) (Make a distiction (bold) between bigger mapping parties and piddly little ones)
are potentially a bad idea. This resulted in the ShoHo mapping party being made bold and font size +1, but the Ljubljana mapping party being called 'piddly' and being demoted. The Ljubljana mapping party was arguably more significant than ShoHo as it was the first mapping party in Slovenia, whereas the ShoHo was just another mapping party in London. If London was significant because of its completeness, surely Mikel's talk at Brighton Bar Camp was equally significant due to Brighton's completeness?
If there is a valid reason for a mapping party being bold, it needs to be explained in the comments section, otherwise we will see rapid inflation in mapping party boldness and size.
--Nick 08:44, 10 September 2007 (BST)
Mini Flags
What do you think about adding Mini Flags to this calendar to help illustrate the country the event is held in? ex. --Nickvet419 05:55, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
- Well someone's just added a bunch of mini Austria flags to just some of the events . As this is right now, it looks very inconsistent, giving undue prominence to these Wiener Stammtisch events. Might look OK with all the flags filled in I suppose. Or it might just look like more clutter. -- Harry Wood 18:11, 30 August 2012 (BST)
- I added in all of them. Looks good to me. --Nighto 18:32, 30 August 2012 (BST)
As you liked my SmallFlag idea, couldn't we now just omit the ", [[Country]]" on every entry, now? It would make the calendar much more readable, especially on the Main_Page (and the width of the calendar column could be reduced). /al 08:00, 9 March 2013 (CET)
- Agreed. It also reduces the English text on multilingual main pages. --Andrew (talk) 12:02, 9 March 2013 (UTC)
- +1 --holgermappt (talk) 22:38, 9 March 2013 (UTC)
hCalendar microformats
I've been asked to look at the possiblity of applying hCalendar microformats to this template.
What do you think of the including a machine-readable date like this:
|Mar 2-5
|FOSSGIS 2010, Osnabrück, Germany
? Pigsonthewing 18:18, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
- I don't see why we shouldn't have it. Go ahead! :-) --Nighto 17:54, 21 September 2012 (BST)
- Microformats don't need to be displayed just to be there. You can use class="value-title" to put data into the title. But we should design an event template that receives all the parameters needed for an event item. /al 08:10, 9 March 2013 (CET)

As it becomes apparent that the Mets, as currently constituted, will not run away with the NL East this year, Mets' fans are all anxiously anticipating this offseason's upcoming deals feeling certain that we'll find some improvement via the trade market. Of course, Mets history has given us many more bad trades than good, but let's look on the positive side, beginning with one of the best trades ever made by the Mets, in this case a trade hatched by Frank Cashen, certainly the best Mets' GM to this point. The Keith Hernandez trade of June 15, 1983 is explained in detail in one of the finest baseball books I have ever read, White Rat – A Life In Baseball by Whitey Herzog and Kevin Horrigan. As Cardinals' manager/GM, Herzog made some outstanding deals and a couple of real clinkers. Even worse than the Hernandez deal is an earlier one that may rank as one of the worst trades ever – Ted Simmons, Pete Vuckovich, and Rollie Fingers for Sixto Lezcano, Lary Sorensen, Dave LaPoint, and David...

Sing along to the music of Kentucky's own Hilltoppers
In the 1950s, The Hilltoppers was one of America's most popular singing groups. Their romantic love songs, beautiful harmonies, and youthful enthusiasm captured the hearts of fans around the world, Over the course of their career they had 21 songs in the Top 40, musically and culturally bridging a time between the Big Band sound and the arrival of rock 'n' roll.
The KET documentary The Hilltoppers tells their remarkable story and showcases some of the great music that made the group a popular sensation. It premieres Monday, Oct. 24 at 9/8 pm on KET.
The group was made up of four young men who met at Western Kentucky University — Billy Vaughn and Don McGuire were from Kentucky, Jimmy Sacca and Seymour Spiegelman of New York. The group took its name from Western's athletic teams nickname (and the group wore beanies and Western letter sweaters in many of their performances).
A demo they recorded on campus of a song Vaughn had written called "Trying" came to the attention of Randy Wood, who had a small record label called Dot Records. It quickly become a smash hit, and the next thing the group knew they were singing for a national audience on Ed Sullivan's Toast of the Town. Life had changed forever for these four college students.
KET interviewed the only living original member of the group — Don McGuire, who now lives in Lexington — as well as Ann Sacca, the widow of the lead singer and one of Sacca's sons.
Also featured are Kentucky writer Bobbie Ann Mason, who founded The Hilltoppers fan club, and Ed McClanahan, another prominent Kentucky writer whose life and work was influenced by the group.
The program features footage of The Hilltoppers performing on popular TV variety shows of the time, along with home movies, family photos, and rare unreleased songs.

Scolmore's USB socket offers a faster, more powerful charging solution for the portable electronic devices that we have all come to rely on. The 2.1A USB outlet guarantees the optimum charge rate regardless of the device charging.
The 1- and 2-gang switched socket with single integrated USB eliminates the need for bulky chargers, whilst freeing up plug sockets.
With more complex charge-management software and circuitry being built into tablet computers, smart phones and E-readers, for example, the amount of current that the device will accept is limited. A device will go into protection mode when it recognises fluctuations within the power supply, resulting in reduced charge or no charge at all.
Supply fluctuations can occur for a number of reasons, including the plugging in of another device into a neighbouring port. Utilising a single USB option eliminates the potential for this problem to occur. Scolmore's single USB outlet provides a constant charge rate and guarantees charge no matter what the device and has proven to reduce the recharge time of devices.
This USB technology has been integrated into the CLICK 13A 1 and 2 gang switched sockets with single 2.1A USB outlet. They are available within the Mode, Deco, Polar, Definity, Define and Metalclad ranges - providing a total of 84 different plate designs and finishes.
The Mode, Deco and Polar USB 2 gang socket can be fitted into a 25mm back box and the 1 gang version requires a 35mm back box. Definity and Define USB 2 gang sockets require a 35mm back box while the 1 gang version calls for a 47mm back box. The Metalclad USB sockets, both 2 & 1 gang versions, are supplied complete with a 40mm back box.

Scallop myosin is unusual in that the regulatory light chains (RLC) can be reversibly dissociated on removal of divalent metal ions. In this thesis the mechanism of the RLC dissociation was studied using several approaches. The dissociation of divalent metal ions from the non-specific divalent metal ion binding site of the scallop RLC was followed, either by a pH indicator method, or by a Mn2+ displacement method. The binding and release of the RLC itself, from the heavy chain/essential light chain complex was followed using the fluorophare 8-anilino-1-naphthalene sulphonate, which was found to be specific for the RLC binding site. The evaluation of the mechanism was greatly aided by the serendipitous discovery, that Mercenaria RLC bound to the scallop heavy chain/essential light chain complex in the absence of divalent metal ions. This allowed RLC exchange experiments to be performed which suggested the nature of the proposed mechanism. The dissociation of the RLC from the scallop heavy chain/ essential light chain complex, is largely explained by a refractory state mechanism. In this mechanism, the heavy chain/essential light chain complex is envisaged to exist in two forms, a nascent state which occurs immediately after RLC dissociation and a refractory state which is favoured on a long term basis. The formation of this refractory state, is the driving force for the net dissociation of the RLC from scallop myosin and subfragments. Differences in the degree of RLC dissociation (HMM cf S1 +rd) on addition of EDTA are explained by a change in the equilibrium constant for the refractory state transition. The mechanism is discussed with reference to existing structural information on RLC denuded myosin.

Also if it is a chain/franchise type store post the specific store location since it might not be a corporate decision.

Well guys this is one we will just have to agree to disagree.
A business has every right to say who or what comes into their stores. My right to carry my gun does not trump theirs.
Now if you truly want to boycott anti gun things lets look at some of the facts and see how far you want to change your life.
Dont go to the ER or take your children to the pediatrician. National associations for both are anti gun.
Do not go to the movie theater. Some national chains are anti gun as are the actors and actresses starring in them.
Check before you rent a DVD or buy a CD. Many, many entertainers are anti gun as are the companies that produce their venues.
Do not go out to eat. Many chain restaurants at the corporate level are anti gun.
Do not accept a Union Job or work for any company that uses Union labor. If you are so employed quit now. Many Unions are anti gun and support anti gun politicians and vis versa.
Pull the kids out of school and home school them all the way through college. Teacher, Administrator, School and Parent organizations are anti gun in a big way.
These are just some of the things. So sit at home with no TV or music and eat Ramen noodles if you are truly going to boycott anti gun things. There is a list on here somewhere of part of the anti gun companies and so on if not google it. It is hard not to support the anti message in some way, shape or form whether you want to or not.
"A first rate man with a third rate gun is far better than the other way around". The gun is a tool, you are the craftsman that makes it work. There are those who say "if I had to do it, I could" yet they never go out and train to do it. Don't let stupid be your mindset. Harryball 2013
I fully agree with a private business getting to decide weather or not anyone can carry a firearm in their place of business. I also fully support anyone who chooses not to give them their business because of these decisions. There is no possible way to avoid all no gun areas but if there are 2 equal businesses and one posts a no gun sign I will spent my money at their competitor and leave a No Guns= No Money card
Here the distinction:Well guys this is one we will just have to agree to disagree.
A business has every right to say who or what comes into their stores. My right to carry my gun does not trump theirs.
Those business owners have posted an invitation to criminals to use their business as a place to victimize people who cannot have the tools to protect themselves. So as crazy as this may sound they think more of the criminal than they do of decent lawabiding citizens. We know that the a criminal will not abide by that sign but we will. Nope if they have sign especially seeing that it is out of ignorance/emotion that they posted that sign then they are telling me they would rather cater to the criminal than to me.
As far as the rest of your diatribe - we have start somewhere. Your recommendation to just give up isn't an option.
I applaud the person who started this thread and the people who created those "do not patronize" lists and web sites. As gun owners, this is exactly what we need to do to change this country back around.
"BUT! I have the right to spend money in a place where I feel safe... The chance of meeting anyone else with a gun is slim "
If you feel safe, why are you carrying a gun? I carry where I feel it is not safe. It's not inside the businesses I'm worried about, it's outside, where the chances of trouble are much higher.

Hopefully this issue will pass. When concealed carry was first passed in Texas back in the 1990's, we had a lot of businesses put up signs forbidding concealed carry. However, over time more and more of those signs have begun to disappear. Most have been replaced by ones like this:
This makes the anti-gun crown feel good because they don't really understand that the sign is essentially meaningless. As CHL holders, we walk right past. I can only think of 3 places that still have the 30.06 sign actually forbidding concealed carry. One is my wife's doctor's office. The other is the YMCA, and lastly and most ironically the Ft.Worth gun show..

Magical Venice
Okay I know every city so far has been my favourite but this one surpasses them all. I love Venice oh and did I mention I realllllllllly love Venice. Our day started early as it was a long drive and we left Vienna about 7am. Arriving at Venice, we left the coach and embarked on a ferry that shuttled us to our hotel, The Papadopoli. It is a very nice hotel next to the canal (aren't they all?) with quaint little rooms and true Venetian decor ...

Sadly, today was our last day in Italy. As worn out as we were feeling, we weren't ready to go home! Rain was in the forecast for today but we never saw any, though the wind was blowing strong most of the day, making the seas and canals choppy (we felt like we had sea legs all day, like we'd come off a cruise ship).

Sill female first to tackle Ranger course
Jared Sperli stashed this in war
Stashed in: Military!
Sounds like a tough course.
Derienzo passed Fort Sill's Pre-Ranger Course, which is how male Soldiers earn a slot in the prestigious school.
"We've always had females participate in the Pre-Ranger program here as far back as I can remember," said Worswick. "I'm glad they're finally getting to do something more than Pre-Ranger Program 1-30th FA."
The course here, ran by captains who are also attending the Captains Career Course, was instrumental in deciding who could have what it takes in this historic undertaking.
"The key thing for me is if a female is interested in the program then we will do everything in our power to prepare them for Ranger School," said Lt. Col. Jeremy Jelly, 1st Battalion, 30th Field Artillery commander. "It's an Army program so I support it 100 percent. If they prove they can do it, more power to them."
Derienzo is not the only woman Fort Sill has deemed worthy.

Restricted and repetitive behaviors (RRBs) on the Autism Diagnostic Interview– Revised (ADI-R: Lord, Rutter, & Le Couteur (1994) were examined in 165 children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), 49 children with non-spectrum developmental disorders (DD), and 65 children with typical development (TD) at approximately 2 years of age. A factor analysis found evidence for a repetitive sensorimotor (RSM) factor and an insistence on sameness (IS) factor. Behaviors that loaded on the RSM factor were prevalent in children with ASD and significantly more common and severe than in children with DD or TD. On average, children with ASD had more RSM behaviors. Behaviors that loaded on the IS factor were relatively uncommon and did not differ in prevalence or severity across groups.

A cashier at Wal-Mart in Trion recently fell prey to a quick-change scam by an unidentified suspect.
According to a report released by the Chattooga County Sheriff's Department, the incident was reported last week.
A quick-change scam is when an individual targets a cashier by paying for small priced items with a large bill. Before the cashier can give back the change the suspect engages the cashier in a speedy series of money exchanges thereby confusing the cashier.
In this incident, a black male approached the cashier wanting to pay for razors that totaled $1.88. He gave the cashier a $100 bill and then asked for change several times from the cashier. The cashier got confused and the suspect got away with $300 from the cash register.

Stupak: Time To Go After Achieving Health Care Goal
Rep. Bart Stupak, the anti-abortion Democrat angered many who share that view when he voted for the new health care law, made it official Friday that he would not run for re-election.
Taking at face value what he said in a public appearance in his Upper Peninsula, Michigan congressional district, Stupak was motivated by several factors. A major one: the six-term congressman had accomplished what was his main goal during his House career — the passage of health care reform.
He also sounded like a man who had truly grown weary of a member of Congress' life, with the weekly flights back and forth to his home district.
Also, he said he was committed to keeping his seat in Democratic hands and by leaving now he would give any Democrat seeking to replace him enough time to raise the money and staff they'll need to compete effectively for the seat.
Only once did his comments betray the great pressure he came under during the recent fight to pass the health care law both during the time he threatened to withhold his yes vote and after he relented. "I've enjoyed almost every minute." he said.
Here are some key parts of his statement:
After 18 years, together we've accomplished what you sent me to Washington to do: health care for all Americans.
My friends and family know that during the last several election cycles, when it seemed like health-care reform was impossible in Washington, I considered retiring from Congress.
I wished to spend more time with my family and begin a new chapter in my career. But in each of the past several election cycles, I chose to continue to serve the people of the First District, because I felt we still had work to do...
... But two years ago, I saw an opportunity to finally enact health care, with the election of a new president. I thank President Obama and Speaker Pelosi for their leadership, to put us across the line, as we finally have health care a reality in this country.
... Last night and early this morning, I informed Democratic leaders and key supporters that I would not seek reelection to Congress. I will always serve the people of the First District, but I've chosen not to continue to serve as their congressman. I'm committed to helping the Democrats retain this seat; as I believe we must continue to fight for our working families and small businesses, for our economic and national security, for our Great Lakes and for our quality of life. By announcing my intentions here today, potential candidates will have ample opportunity to organize campaigns and collect the necessary signatures before the May 11th filing deadline.
... REPORTER: Congressman Stupak, what was the tipping point? What was the final moment that you said, "I'm done"?
REP. STUPAK: That really came the last 36 hours. As I said, I've struggled with this decision. I wanted to leave a couple times, but always thought there was one more job to be done. Health care was always a major issue. In fact, some of my friends over here will
remember this little pamphlet. It's one of my first election things:
"Health-care reform right now. I believe every American has a right to health care." We did it; might have taken us 18 years.
I felt that main mission, my main goal — legislative goal was accomplished. I have been doing this for 30-some years in public service. I'm young enough, I'm at the crossroads in my life, where I can do other things. I look forward to those new challenges.
So it wasn't one thing. It was a number of things. You've been in the district a little bit — about 20 percent of my district, understand. So you can imagine, when I come home, my biggest regret now — maybe it was exciting 16, 14 years ago, but now I come home, I
see Laurie for 12 hours, I jump in the car, I'm gone. A different motel room every night, a different airport I fly out of.

Reviews for The Gray
I am staying at the Gray now. Arrived Sunday; no rooms because the computer was 'frozen'; came back after 2 hour lunch so we could wait another 10 mins for the keys to be programmed. Internet is at dial up speed (or none). Moved room once because of failed air conditioning (room steady at 26 degrees); came back just before midnight to another room stuck at 24 degrees. No turn down. No staff (maybe 3). Guys this is 600 euros in Milan in 2017. I think it's game over. Looking for a room at the mandarin for our second night. Thanks for ruining our day.

We almost chose a different property based on some of the reviews here -- what a mistake that would have been! Lobby and rooms are small, but no different than any of the 3 properties we've stayed at around the Duomo. Location is obviously fantastic. Of the boutique hotels we've stayed in throughout Italy, room size was pretty much expected - small, but enough room to move around and laid out in a comfortable manner -- never felt cramped. The hotel itself has a very well appointed interior and the rooms have a very clean and appealing look to them. Service was solid. We had 2 nights of excellent sleep and loved using the room as a jumping off point between hopping on the metro at the Duomo, shopping the quadrilateral, and of course La Scala. No question that we would stay here again!

Boutique hotel in downtown Milano. Only few rooms. Rooms not too big (bug eho needs a big room in Milan). Breakfast excellent: maybe not quantity but definitively quality. Staff from reception to concierge to breakfaststaff just amazing: they really give you the feeling you're their most important client. I know where I'll stay next time......

We stayed at The Gray last weekend, and I really coulnd't ask for a better hotel! It wasn't our first time at Milan, but this time I wanted something near the city centre, and this hotel is literally two steps away from the Duomo!!! I was overwhealmed with the decoration of this hotel, super chic and minimal, I loved every single detail. The staff guys were so kind with us everytime we needed help, they recommended us restaurants, museums and even where to shop, basically they were like our touristic guides. Don't worry if you don't speak italian since they speak english, french, a bit of russian,and there is a spanish guy too! All of them very nice and helpfull. And the room was to die for, we have actually booked a classic room, but they asked us if we wanted to upgrade our room for an extra charge, so we gave it a try and went with them to see the room, and since the moment I entered the room I was shocked, it was literally a dream and with the view directly to the gallery!!! Can't wait to go back already, see you this summer !! Totally recommended

The rooms, at 12 sq.m (?) must be the smallest in Milan. Ridiculously small - even for one person. The hotel has a good location near Piazza Duomo. However, many better options nearby at the same price. The hotel charges EUR 36.00 for a simple breakfast - tea & croissant! When complaining they simply say this is what you must pay! I will for sure never return. If you have to stay here - at least avoid the breakfast! Typical clueless hotel!
