I have heard that they are one of the harder roses to root. ( Not helpful, I'm afraid.)
I think I would try notching the bark at a node toward an end of a cane, dusting with rooting hormone, and pegging it to the ground to see if it will put out roots. Then you can cut it free when it does.
I managed to root a couple of them by cutting a cane at a bud eye and then making shorter cuttings (about 3-4 inchesl long) and then putting them in soil to where at least one of the bud eyes are under the soil..I also scratch it at the bottom n the other side of the bud...Good luck!

I'd pay attention to Melva's advice; she knows what she's doing.
As evidenced by the many baby roses I am surrounded by....some of them elude me...I must have started 25 or more of the Lady Banks...and just 2 of them decided to root...I think you have to speak sweetly to them. (I have a friend who says you have to hold your mouth just right)
How are your roses doing? I will be ready to send the others soon.
Hi Melva. I lost three of the babies. Unfortunately I don't know which as they were among the de-potted ones with labels at large; the rest are thriving!
I have some to send you in a couple of months
Darlows Enigma
Autumn Delight
Crocus Rose
Blush Noisette

I haven't been able to root Jean Bach Sisley although I have managed to do it before...

I'm sitting in the Buffalo Sabres press box right now, watching the workers put boards over the ice down below and reflecting about tonight's game. Pretty surreal for a guy who's been a Sabres fan since he was 13 and also writer who lost his blogging mojo about a year ago before joining this site. But this isn't about me. It's about the Sabres vs Leaf game and more specifically two young players who have caught the eye of fans and media alike.
I'd be amiss if I jumped into my thoughts about Brayden McNabb and Zach Kassian without quickly exulting on what a tremendous game that was. You can read my live game blog from earlier for the details, but the game truly had a playoff atmosphere. The warring Sabres and Leafs fans made for a raucous, extremely loud building and it was definitely buzzing. All of that wouldn't have meant a thing if the Sabres didn't get the job done, however. They played with a lot of jump and verve and didn't let certain mistakes turn into the big disaster as they have in the past weeks. Let's hope this game is a stepping stone to the Sabres team we wanted to see during the long summer of anticipation.
My intention for the game tonight was to focus my attention on McNabb's play. I thought it would be fun and informative to pinpoint a certain player with the added advantage of my bird's eye view of the press box. I expanded that to include Kassian once I saw that McNabb was rotating with Gragnani for ice time on the 3rd defensive pairing. He ended up only playing 6:48 total for the game, and I knew I'd need more for this article. And Kassian sure brought his A game tonight to give me more than enough material.
Let's look at each player separately:
While Kassian stole the show with his play, I thought McNabb played admirably in his little bit of ice time. One thing that continues to impress me about his game is for a rookie he doesn't make the glaring errors. In some respects, it reminds me of Tyler Myers in his early days. Brayden is calm back there and nothing seems to rattle him all that much. Tonight in the second period he took a decent hit in the corner, but still was able to get the puck around the boards nicely without any panic. It's one of those plays that seem small, but when done consistently helps lead to victories.
The most obvious plays when you notice McNabb are the huge hits, and he had another one of those tonight also in the second period. It earned him the old Carubba Collision and was definitely a jarring one that the fans appreciated. But I noticed some other less blatant parts of his game that are quite impressive. He is an accomplished, smooth skater given his size (6'4, 204) - he moves fluidly out there, especially as he back tracks to return to the defensive zone. He also demonstrated a quick stick in keeping the puck in the zone and working opponents in the corners.
There were a couple negatives I noticed about his game tonight as well. Really minor stuff, though. Despite his cool, there were a couple times when he got sloppy with the puck and turned it over in the corner. I also noticed him slightly out of position early on after one of these giveaways. These are mistakes that you see out of every rookie in the NHL, but Brayden has played so darned well that it's almost surprising to see them.
So much to like about Zach's game in general in his 10 games but most specifically tonight. He was a beast, plain and simple. Similarly to McNabb, Kassian has a rare mix of skill and toughness. I was especially impressed with his skating as prior to arriving here I just assumed he was a bull who was slow and meandering. So not true. He has the quickness to get into the proper position and the strength to go through players as well. Sometimes at the same time! He's obviously not a speedster by any stretch of the definition, but his acceleration is deceptively polished.
I particularly like watching him skate down the wing, let go of his left hand to push the opponent's stick away as he continues to barrel forward. It's an example of sheer determination and grit and he is not an easy body to move off that puck. The Leafs at times didn't have a chance in that area. Another facet of his game that I definitely didn't notice just watching on TV but caught tonight is how well Kassian backchecks. He puts his head down and does everything he can do to get back up the ice. Derek Roy could take some pointers by watching #54. Zach's effort level should be much revered on a team that often gives less than they can.
Kassian's stealing of the puck that led to Vanek's goal is something I think we'll see a lot of in the future. When you combine skill with power and all out energy that's going to happen. Quite honestly, I'm having a hard time finding any negatives in his game right now. I took notes every time I noticed something in McNabb or Kassian's game as the night progressed and not one red mark for the toothless wonder. I'm not saying his game doesn't have weaknesses; they just weren't on display tonight.
The whole point of tonight's evaluation was to answer the following question: just how good are these kids really? The answer if you haven't yet deduced it yet is "quite good". I don't see any reason why either of these players should be heading back to Rochester. Now I know there are cap issues and for some ungodly reason Lindy wants to keep forcing Gragnani in there over McNabb, but you have to find ways to let these players stay. They're not lagging behind and in some cases are outplaying their veteran teammates. And the beauty thing is the Sabres are finally bringing in players with a nice balance of ability and sandpaper to slowly overcome the soft label. Good things all around with these two.

Today the Suicide Act 1961 is 50 years old. Progressive in its day, it ended the criminalisation of those who attempted suicide. It also introduced an offence of assisted suicide, punishable by up to 14 years in prison. The law, however, recognises that it may not always be in a patient's best interests to prolong their life, and doctors are not obliged to provide treatment that is futile.
Mentally competent adults have the right to refuse life-prolonging medical treatment, including the right to make advance refusals of treatment under the Mental Capacity Act 2005. And if doctors consider it clinically appropriate, they can withdraw such treatment without patient consent in the last days and weeks of life. In addition, due to the prosecuting policy on assisted suicide of the director of public prosecutions, a person is unlikely to face prosecution for assisting another person to die if they do so in an amateur capacity and act wholly on compassionate grounds. In other words, medical practice and the application of the law have sidestepped parliament's failure to update the Suicide Act.
Such evolution of medical and legal practice is better than no choice at all, but it is no substitute for an updated law that would allow terminally ill, mentally competent adults to choose a physician-assisted death, protected by upfront safeguards. We are where we are because parliamentarians seem frightened of a backlash from a vocal minority who oppose change. But as other jurisdictions have shown, it should not be beyond parliament's ability to enact laws protecting those wishing to prolong life at the end of life, while respecting the choice of others to end their suffering.

Smokin' Joe Frazier Shorts
Honoring Olympic gold medalist and heavyweight champion Smokin' Joe Frazier. Philly's own Frazier was a kingpin during the golden era of heavyweights in the 1970s, and his fights with Muhammad Ali remains the most significant in the canon. Frazier defeated Ali at Madison Square in 1971 in what was dubbed "The Fight of the Century," and the two would square off twice more before it was all said and done. The most memorable encounter was 1975's trilogy fight, the "Thrilla in Manila," which remains one of the greatest (and most vicious) boxing matches in history.

Our hearts bleed for Adam Sandler and Judd Apatow, those millionaire kings of comedy who are here to tell us that it's lonely at the top, that money can't buy happiness, and that — darn it — they probably shouldn't have abandoned their roots on the open-mic circuit.
Funny People is Apatow's poisoned valentine to the comedy business.
It's a film that is more ambitious than Knocked Up or The 40-Year Virgin and yet somehow more frustrating, too. The director loves his subject; he hates his subject.
And his confusion ties the movie up in knots.
Sandler (Apatow's friend and one-time room-mate) plays George Simmons, a cocksure superstar who seems a lot like Sandler except for the fact that he's just been diagnosed with leukaemia.
Contemplating the closing credits from the luxury of his ocean-front mansion, George attempts to win back his first love (played by Apatow's wife, Leslie Mann) and plays curmudgeonly mentor to Ira (Seth Rogen), a struggling stand-up who is still holding down a day job in a deli.
When Ira suggests that George discuss his illness with his friends, the millionaire shrugs him off. "I don't have any friends; I have showbiz friends. You're my friend and I don't even like you."
Funny People is at its best during this bleak, barbed opening half, when it paints an unvarnished portrait of the dog-eat-dog celebrity circuit.
But later, when George's cancer goes into remission, the film turns flabby and complacent, and loses sight of an exit line.
All of which suggests that Apatow should perhaps follow George's example and beat a retreat to the rough and tumble of the comedy club scene.
Isn't the first rule of stand-up to keep it short and sweet; to quit while you're ahead and leave the audience wanting more?
Funny People overstays its welcome by a full half-hour.

Don't Know What To Do?

- Errors and Memory Loss
- Subtle Effects of Ecstasy
- Double Whammy' Memory Loss
Ecstasy Use Affects Memory
Survey Reveals Long-Term Memory ProblemsPeople who take the recreational drug Ecstasy risk impairing their memory, according to an international study which surveyed 763 people, including 480 users of the drug and 81 chronic users.
The study found that those who regularly took Ecstasy suffered from long-term memory difficulties and were 23 percent more likely to report problems with remembering things than non-users.
The British research team, led by the University of Newcastle upon Tyne, also questioned volunteers about their use of other drugs. It found those who regularly used marijuana reported up to 20 per cent more memory problems than non-users. BUt for these users, short-term memory was mainly affected.
Cognitive Time Bomb
Because evidence has shown Ecstasy users are likely to use other drugs, including marijuana, the researchers say they are vulnerable to a myriad of memory afflictions which may represent a 'time bomb' of cognitive problems for later life.
Until this study, little has been known about the impact of ecstasy and other drug use on everyday and long-term memory, the authors reported.
The research team based their findings on responses from 763 participants but they also looked closely at a sub-group of 81 'typical' ecstasy users who had taken the drug at least ten times.
Errors and Memory Loss
As well as assessing the volunteers' responses to the memory tests, the team recorded the number of mistakes made when filling in the online questionnaire.
They found the group of 'typical users' reported their long-term memory to be 14 per cent worse than the 480 people who had never taken Ecstasy and 23 per cent worse than the 242 non-drug users.
This group also made 21 per cent more errors on the questionnaire form than non-ecstasy users and 29 per cent more mistakes than people who did not take drugs at all.
Subtle Effects of Ecstasy
Lead researcher Dr. Jacqui Rodgers, of Newcastle University, said: "We all know of cases where people have suffered acutely from the use of Ecstasy, but relatively little is known about the more subtle effects on the increasing number of regular users worldwide.
"Users may think that ecstasy is fun and that it feels fairly harmless at the time. However, our results show slight but measurable impairments to memory as a result of use, which is worrying.
Double Whammy' Memory Loss
"It's equally concerning that we don't really know what the long-term effects of ecstasy use will be, as it is still a poorly understood drug. The results indicate that users are potentially creating a time bomb of potential cognitive difficulties in later life."
"The findings also suggest that ecstasy users who use mariuana are suffering from a 'double whammy' where both their long-term and short-term memory is being impaired."
Dr. Rodgers, of the School of Neurology, Neurobiology & Psychiatry, said the results could change drug therapy techniques. "The findings may help drug services in the UK and elsewhere to explain the potential consequences of use so that people can make an informed decision as to whether to take ecstasy or not."
The study also found no significant differences between results from male and female participants.
Source: Results of the study were published in the Journal of Psychopharmacology in January 2004.

Kevin Pengos poured in 22 points to lead Canada to a 91-71 win over Egypt on Tuesday at the FIBA under-19 men's basketball world championship.
The win improved Canada's record to 2-3 while Egypt fell to 1-4. Both are competing in the 12-team second round, with the top four in each of the two groups moving on to the quarter-finals.
Canada plays Serbia (3-2) on Wednesday.
The Canadians jumped out to a 25-14 lead over the Egyptians in the first quarter and never looked back.
"The guys came out on a mission right from the tip of the ball," said head coach Greg Francis. "We were also hitting our shots, which is also key for us to advance. We ran our stuff and it showed on the scoreboard. Now we just get ready for Serbia."
Pengos, a guard from Newmarket, Ont., was good on five of seven three-point attempts. Olivier Hanlan of Gatineau, Que., added 16 points and Junior Lomomba of Montreal chipped in with 13.
"I played my game, hit my shots, passed the ball well and my team helped me out," said Hanlan. "Great team effort. Now we will prepare for Serbia."
Marawan Mohamed led Egypt with 16 points.
Canada will need a victory over Serbia, combined with a win by Croatia over the U.S., to automatically advance to the quarter-finals.
If both Canada and the Americans win, it will force a three-way tie between Canada, Serbia and Croatia for places three to five in their group. The advancing teams would then be determined by point differential in head-to-head games. Canada lost to Croatia in the opening round.
Canada is ranked sixth in the latest FIBA world rankings, compared to No. 20 for Egypt.
Canada finished seventh at the 2009 tournament in New Zealand.

Gold (2006)
Given the consistent strength of The Mavericks' back catalog, compiling a single-disc "best-of" collection that gives an accurate picture of their ... Show synopsis Given the consistent strength of The Mavericks' back catalog, compiling a single-disc "best-of" collection that gives an accurate picture of their music has been something of a challenge, so Gold has one key advantage over the other Mavericks anthologies MCA/Universal has released in the past -- with close to two-and-a-half hours of music spread over two CDs, Gold offers the Mavericks' story writ large, and there's no question their material merits the attention. Gold offers plenty of representative selections (seven each) from the band's four MCA studio albums, as well as cuts from the 1998 live set It's Now! It's Live!, a few single sides, compilation and soundtrack appearances, and import-only bonus tracks that receive stateside release for the first time on this set. While the rare material helps make this a near-definitive Mavericks set, it also means loyal fans will be buying a lot of songs they already own to get some worthy rarities, such as the surf-flavored Trampoline outtake "Panatella," and the groovy cover of "A World Without Love" from a German collection. But if you're only going to buy one Mavericks album in your lifetime, Gold is probably the one to get -- for a change, the band's unique blend of honky tonk swing ("There Goes My Heart"), rockabilly spunk ("Hey Good Lookin'"), Latin swagger ("Dance the Night Away"), countrypolitan shuffle ("Foolish Heart"), vintage pop smoothness ("Dream River"), and sophisticated modern country ("What a Crying Shame") is given the room to show off all its accents, and Raul Malo's vocals and songwriting are in stellar form throughout (while Robert Reynolds and Paul Deakin lend equally excellent support). The Mavericks were one of the best and most unique acts to scale the country charts in the '90s, and while the albums Trampoline, Music for All Occasions and What a Cryin' Shame are all well-worth owning, Gold does a splendid job of boiling their essence down into one fine collection, and it's a splendid overview of the band's first decade. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Dropping the Bomb
I stand awkwardly in the living room, bare feet shuffling idly across the plush carpet, eyes darting between the pictures on the mantle to the art on the walls.
Anywhere but on my parents.
He sits in an old lay-z-boy, the cuisions molded to his frame. I know he stares at me, waiting, though I refrain from making eye contact myself.
She stands slightly beside yet behind him, hands on his tense shoulders. She knows that something is up. She always does.
She is my mother. And I did bring a tag-along, after all.
My "tag-along" is actually my lover, a secret romance that blossomed only last summer. It was a good summer, but that's a momentary distraction I cannot afford.
For the moment, my cohort is engaged not with me, but with a stare-off versus a piece of needle-work on the wall behind my parents. Neither show signs of giving in.
I still switch between two views, the parents still have their eyes locked on me. I can feel the seconds tick by, though they feel like minutes. Hours, even.
It was bound to happen at some point, right? Either they would find out from someone else, or from me.
I choose to break the silence, as my lover's opponent shows no intention to blink.
"Mom, Dad..."
My voice falters. My head spins.
I can't do this.
But as a hand slips reassuringly into mine, I know that I can.
Deep breaths.
I start again, the same as before.
"Mom, Dad..."
I'm looking at them now, and they are looking back at me. Mom's eyes full of worry and concern, my father looking careless, as usual.
"...I'm straight."
A quick gasp. A palm-slap to the forehead. My girlfriend's hand tight in my own. My eyes snap shut.
Is it over yet?

Summer Travel is Still on Sale!
As the summer school holidays begin I know many people who still haven't booked a holiday and so in the light of this I found Nick Trend's 'Trend On Travel' article in the weekends Saturday Times particularly informative and I'd like to add a couple of other suggestions to his reasons to travel this August. If you are tempted by the Caribbean then don't forget that on Saint Lucia in August have the 'Market Vendors' Feast' a religious service followed by a food festival and in Malaysia the 'Sarawak Regatta' with its boat-racing events, including Chinese dragon boats is a great cultural spectacle.
Summer travel was also a hot topic in the weekends Mail on Sunday with the self proclaimed crafty traveller Fred Mawer declaring 'Don't panic!

The English Language
There aught to be adumbrate
Over all that we say
As we cleave all words
And comprise customs.
And yet we continue to dust
While giving out and fast
Fine handicaps to all who listen.
And then we sit and marvel
At what we have ravel
While deciding if to resign
Or continuing to trim
With words like shank
While keeping up
Our sanguine intent.
Oh if only English was adumbrate
But alas we weather on
And wind up is
Where we stand.

Passwords are the fundamental protection for the user, to control what his 'user-id' performs in the IT-systems! Modern password policies help protect the passwords against outsiders' attempts to get hold of the password.
No chain is however stronger than the weakest link, and in password protection the password reset process is vulnerable! We have unfortunately often heard from service desk employees that they trust users calling in and requesting a new password. No authentication takes place!
This is not acceptable from a management and not even a user point of view. The answer is solid authentication. This is true for as well self-service as for manned operations. From our dialogue with customers and interest groups we see the following authentication methods being used for users who have forgotten their password:
As can be seen from the above, all different authentication choices have inherent challenges or weaknesses. An additional major management challenge is how to monitor that the service desk actually does exactly as the authentication process describes!! If you limit the privileged rights to the service desk, so password reset only can occur through FastPass (and not through privileged Windows accounts), then all password resets can be monitored!
In some situations – like access from external networks – or for some users with access to criticval…
In some situations – like access from external networks – or for some users with access to criticval systems, we will require strong authentication.
Strong authentication is also called 2-factor authentication, as it must combine 2 authentication methods of the standard 3 types:
Strong authentication is actually easy to implement in passwords self-service systems.
All FastPass products have user's free choice of authentication, 2-factor authentication and advanced logging and reporting.

With self-service of passwords it is possible for organizations with the modern solutions to make authentication methods fit with the realities of users, where different users must have different but still secure authentication.

We found that FastPass was the only solution in the marketplace with the capability to deliver a fully-fledged solution that we could use for all of our customers. A solution is only good once deployed and we see that the new service based on FastPass is highly popular among our customers. We tested several products in the market and found that the FastPass product stood out clearly as the best product thanks to the easy implementation, single point of management and rich feature set. FastPass supports our strategy of the very best customer experience regardless of the time of day, says Per Werngren, CEO at IDE.
"The Portuguese Parliament was looking for a self-service password reset/unlock solution. We surveyed the market, and found some expensive and complex solutions. Then we discovered FastPass, which seemed to address all our requirements. We did a pilot installation, and were very pleased by the ease of use for both the administrator and the final user interface. We were even more pleased with the low cost for such a complete product. After we acquired the product, installation was a breeze and FastPass support helped us promptly in all our issues and questions. We had the product in full production in about one week after installation and initial testing. Now our users have a simple method to unlock/reset their passwords without contacting helpdesk, at any time of day or night and from everywhere they have Internet access."
Varde City Council needed to improve service for end-users working outside normal business hours, and wanted at the same time to reduce number of calls to the internal IT department. With more than 100 password related calls each month, Varde decided for FastPass to give users self-service for passwords. Varde has two priomary passwords : Windows/AD and an extermnal password from an IBM mainframe (KMD). With FastPass users now have self-service when a password is forgotten or lost. Within less than 3 months more than 80-85% of calls are now handled by users. See the comments from Lea Dragsbæk
Sonoco realized the need to reduce Help Desk expenses and quickly identified password resets as a target call volume. Sonoco had already made a large investment in their identity and access management infrastructure and they wished to capitalize on that with minimal additional investment. Sonoco and Logic Trends collectively identified FastPass's Password Manager product due to the low licensing cost, low maintenance effort and strong integration with the Microsoft infrastructure.
Faced with a compliancy requirement from our US parent company, we surveyed the market for a tool that would help us to come into line with section 404 of the Sarbannes-Oxley Act, which requires our users to authenticate themselves to the environment and have the ability to manage their own passwords.
Exactly 21 days before the compliance date we found FastPass Password Manager with a connector to our AS/400 environment.
IT Intergroup worked with us to get the FastPass solution in place and we were compliant a week ahead of schedule. All our users are now able to authenticate and resset passwords from a simple browser interface
In the spring 2009 Tulsa Public Schools decided to implement FastPass Password Manager from FastPassCorp. IT-manager Kirk Damron says: "We needed to reduce the load on our Help Desk from numerous calls related to forgotten passwords". With 8000 employees and teachers and increasing complexities in passwords, the 'forgotten password' workload was significant.
Kirk Damron adds: "We needed a solution which was easy to implement and administrate, and easy to use for the end-users. FastPass has proved to be just that!"
Installation and implementation was done in just one day, and the continued roll-out to users has been effortless.

Originally posted on Fox Sports West | Last updated 10/2/12
The Angels did their part. They hoped the Texas Rangers would do theirs. No such luck. The Angels' season came to a screeching halt on a cool night in a half empty ballpark in Seattle. Their final two games will have no meaning, at least in terms of deciding their playoff future this season. They have none. While rookie Mike Trout had another dazzling night at the plate and pitcher CJ Wilson had his most productive start in almost a month, the Angels were officially eliminated from a shot at the playoffs -- not because of what they did but because of what the Texas Rangers didn't do. The Rangers didn't beat the Oakland A's, thereby removing the Angels' last remaining hope -- and marking the third consecutive season they will miss the postseason. The Angels can't blame the Rangers; they can only blame themselves -- their stumbling April start, their missed opportunities, their blown leads. But those are subjects for another day. They went down swinging. Their 27-11 record since Aug. 21 is tied for the best record in the majors. They were 18-9 in September, the second-best record in the American League. Trout is making his case for MVP, and Jered Weaver is a contender for the Cy Young Award. But what they needed most was to sweep the Seattle Mariners and have the A's lose three to the Rangers. But before they could finish off an 8-4 win at Safeco Field, they saw the writing on the scoreboard wall: A's 4, Rangers 3. "It's not a good feeling," Trout told FOX Sports West. "We were scoreboard watching the whole game. Oakland got an early lead, and we came out fighting. We did our job." At some point, Trout will be able to appreciate his contribution. He was 4 for 5 in the game, including two singles, a double and a triple, scored two runs and drove in three. His season is not quite done, but among his achievements this season are these: He established an Angels rookie record with five four-hit games, most in the majors since Ichiro Suzuki had six in 2001. He has scored 129 runs, an Angels record and the third most for a rookie in big league history. Only Joe DiMaggio (132 in 1936) and Ted Williams (131 in 1939) had more. That's heady company. "Individually, it means a lot to me," Trout said of his remarkable rookie season. "But from a team standpoint, we had one goal coming into spring training, and that's getting into the playoffs. We didn't achieve that goal." They'll have all winter to think about that. Their 8-15 April start still rings heavily in their ears. It dropped them nine games out in the AL West, and they spent the rest of the summer trying to slice away the margin. Wilson was part of the reason they struggled. The left-hander, who signed a rich free-agent contract last winter, endured an 11-start winless stretch from July 1 to Aug. 23, going 0-5 in that span. Monday night, he won his 13th game, pitched into the seventh inning and yielded just two earned runs. The Angels beat Seattle's Felix Hernandez, the former Cy Young winner who threw a perfect game this season but couldn't beat LA. He had five starts against the Angels and was 0-3. Now the Angels will play their final two games against the Mariners and head for the offseason. It won't be fun. "It's a little quiet in our clubhouse," manager Mike Scioscia said. "We're disappointed that we didn't reach our goal this season. There's a lot of good things that happened. We fell short, but we're going take the positives and move forward and hopefully finish strong."

UPDATE 1-U.S. to release grant funds for California rail project
WASHINGTON, May 22 The U.S. Transportation Department said on Monday it will release grant funds for a project to electrify a northern California commuter rail system.
(Adds forecast, estimates, share move)
July 22 Ingersoll-Rand Plc, the maker of Trane airconditioners and Thermo King refrigeration units, raised its current-year profit forecast as it expects the construction and industrial markets to grow.
The company also reported a better-than-expected quarterly profit due to higher margins.
Ingersoll-Rand raised its full-year forecast for adjusted earnings from continuing operations to $3.18-$3.26 per share, from $3.05 to $3.20.
Analysts on average were expecting earnings of $3.22 per share, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.
The company said revenue from the climate control business rose 4.3 percent in the second quarter ended June 30, from a year earlier, as orders for Thermo King mobile refrigeration units increased by "a mid-teens percentage".
The climate control business, which accounts for about 78 percent of total revenue, makes heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems for residential and commercial markets.
Ingersoll-Rand's revenue rose 4.3 percent to $3.54 billion, but missed the average analyst estimate of $3.55 billion.
Net earnings attributable to ordinary shareholders fell to $306 million, or $1.12 per share, from $317.2 million, or $1.05 per share, a year earlier.
Adjusted earnings from continuing operations were $1.13 per share, above analysts' average estimate of $1.11.
The company's shares were up 1 percent at $62.50 in light trading before the bell on Tuesday. (Reporting by Rohit T. K. in Bangalore; Editing by Maju Samuel)

The General Info tab for a device has a field "Last Updated Time". This field is very misleading. I thought this was the last time SW was able to successfully scan the device, apparently that's not the case. I need to know when the last time a device was scanned by SW. Is this possible by looking at the device info?

Actually is fairly accurate...
the only difference is your scan settings and how they are configured...
Do you have incremental / Differential scanning...
How about scan errors?
How about Scan Speed?
Post up your scan settings if you can... that might be helpful as well...
(of course try to limit any private information!)
Dec 16, 2010 at 4:48 UTC
AccentLogic is an IT service provider.
From what I can tell Last Updated Time is mostly useless. As with other posters in the community, I am seeing old equipment in my inventory that I KNOW has not been on our network in 6+ months, yet the Last Updated Time shows something in the past few days. Now that field is completely useless because I can't trust it.
However, the Last Scan Time is accurate for those old devices. That is the field I want to see on the device General Info tab. I suppose it's time to post an enhancement request.

Keith Levene has announced plans to revisit Commercial Zone, his final LP with Public Image Ltd, getting "[to] what the fourth album was supposed to be". The PiL co-founder is crowdfunding $12,500 (£7,400) "not so much set the record straight but [to] get the right record out the right way".
Commercial Zone has a messy history: Levene began working on the record in 1982, the year after Public Image Ltd released The Flowers of Romance, but quit the group before it was finished. "Due to endless complications the project became splintered in spring 1983," the campaign states. "This led to Keith going his separate way from PiL resulting in two diluted releases neither of which were satisfactory." Those releases are PiL's 1984 LP, This Is What You Want... This Is What You Get, and Levene's Commercial Zone: This Is Not A Bootleg, which came out around the same time. "It has all been very annoying," Levene told a magazine at the time. "What PiL did for their record was use the ideas on the original tapes that suited them, but they re-recorded everything with new musicians ... I had to release [my record] to end the situation."
"I know there's been a gap in time of 30 years," Levene admitted on his website and its associated Indiegogo campaign. "However, it seems like it's coming right on time for a myriad of reasons ... I want to do the project embracing the original & proper PiL ethos."
For Levene, Commercial Zone 2014 is an attempt to create a definitive version of the aborted PiL album. "It will be much better because it's current, it contains the best of the original tracks, plus remixes, plus original material, and has the benefit of 30 years of my work," he told Louder Than War. "So it's not another tired, old re-release of stuff that's been out since 1978 or 1981. It's fresh. I've had time to reflect."
Although Levene and PiL frontman John Lydon remain estranged, Commercial Zone 2014 has the support of the band's former drummer, Martin Atkins. Those who donate to the campaign can receive copies of the album and an accompanying book, or even Levene's signed Les Paul guitar. At the time of writing, they are 61% toward their funding goal.

In LeeAnn Wise's first couple of years at Richfield, she emphasized building a winning attitude. The culture changed.
Now in her sixth year as head coach, the Spartans are rolling on five consecutive seasons with 20-plus victories, none bigger than the 72-61 win over Holy Family in Thursday night's Class 3A Section 6 final that punched Richfield's first ticket ever to the state tournament.
"They're winning the close games, they're doing little things right -- they're starting to get it," said Wise, as nearly every Richfield fan, parent and alum came down to celebrate on the court at Minnetonka.
And in the program's biggest game, the Spartans' most electric player stood like a giant. Junior guard Jessica January scored 36 points to lead the offensive effort. She altered the game on all areas of the floor.
"She's just the complete package," Wise said.
Third-ranked and No. 1-seeded Richfield had its hands full with Holy Family, which upset then-fourth ranked Benilde-St. Margaret's 55-53 last Saturday in the semifinals.
Shots were dropping for both teams early in the first half. A Michaela Rasmussen skyhook put Holy Family up 25-19 before Richfield went on a 9-0 run to pull ahead. January's bucket ended the half with the Spartans down 33-32, and she began the second half with a range three pointer.
Rasmussen led the Fire with 20 points and Emily Bauer was close behind with 18.
Richfield inched ahead midway through the second half, but never held a really comfortable lead until the final minute. Sierra Ford-Washington scored 12 and Hannah Wise added 10 points for Richfield.
Behind the coach's emphatic fist pumps, the Spartans have now won eight consecutive contests.
"I'm going to celebrate. We've never been there before," LeeAnn Wise said. "For the program, it's just incredible."
