Hey Ford, you listening?
Since many of the issues have been in the software, I think Ford would be smart to offer at least two distinct setups. If I had stopped at DCT V3.0, I may have said extremely satisfied. But when the dealer installed DCT V4.0, which in my observation made D more like S and S more like D. I liked it when D was gauged toward hypermiling, and S was much more aggressive than it is now. In D with V3.0 all I had to do was just move the accelerator pedal a little further and I could have the D that I am stuck with all the time now with V4.0. And in S with V3.0 it seemed to hold lower gears longer and was much more aggressive with the downshifts when slowing for corners. It used to be with V3.0 when I was up in the canyon, I could just leave it in S auto and was satisfied. Now I frequently have to go to select shift to get the results I used to get in S auto mode. Why make it one size fits all when one size doesn't fit all, and it would be real simple to outline the characteristics of two different options and let the consumer choose which setup they wanted to have in their car. If you sell the car, the new owner can change it to the other option if they want. It is just a software update.

Chapter 10
Weeks passed after the day that forever changed my life, and yet nothing else had happened. Jenna was still a silent figure in my life and no one else knew of what we had done.
If anything Jenna had become more quiet and distant. Every time she saw me her face would turn to a mask of torture and she would turn the other way. Each and every time she did this my heart would thud painfully and I would pray for another glance at her.
Winter was coming and fall was making its exit so the winds were a bit colder and the trees were a bit barer. I love this time of year, the time when change and new are in between. It is where the past still has a fighting chance to overtake your future… but only for just a while, a week or so to make or break what you expect your future to be.
Jesse and I walk down the leaf covered street towards our houses and I barely listen as he talks about his football game that he won last Friday. He asks me whether I thought if that game had been his best yet or not and I grunt in agreement. We pass Jenna's house and I instinctively look up at it. Jesse follows my gaze and pats my shoulder.
"She's hot man, but seriously, she has some problems." Jesse says, his hand still on my shoulder.
I shrug him off and give him a cold stare, looking at him for the first time. "You don't know anything about her."
Jesse puts up his hands in defense and takes a step back. "All right man, easy. I just meant that if you ever want to get with that then good luck." He puts down his hands and looks at me tentatively. "Listen man, you have a good thing with Sammy, are you seriously willing to endanger it with a girl like Jenna?"
I don't answer for a few minutes and Jesse starts to walk away, towards his house, returning to his previous mood.
"Yes I would." I say in a whisper that is stolen by the cold wind.
After saying bye to Jesse I drop off my stuff at home and grab a photo album that I had been working on for almost my whole life. I know she will think of it as being corny, but I want her to see what my life is like, what I have seen, and perhaps what I have felt. Maybe if she knew a bit about me, she would show me a bit about her.
I knock on her door and Pamela answers. Her hair is frizzled and in a messy bun on her head and her eyes are red. She has blotches on her face which show to me that she was crying and that perhaps she is still upset.
"Are you all right Pam?" I ask, out of politeness more than anything, I really want to talk to Jenna.
She nods, but then shakes her head, tears coming out at rapid speed down her high cheekbones. "It's about Jenna."
My interest in the crying Pamela is suddenly greater and I earnestly want to hear what she has to say. "All right, do you want to talk about it?"
She nods and ushers me into her home. She goes to the living room and I follow, noting that Jenna's shoes were not by the door signifying that she was not home yet.
"What happened?" I ask, feeling myself getting nervous, hopefully nothing had happened.
She shook her head and quietly started talking, in between sobs. "When Jenna was a little girl her father and I divorced, she was very young and I had been a stay at home mom, so I didn't have a job let alone any money. So, in the side-effect of it all, the judge awarded custody to her father. Since that moment Jenna and I seized to be close." She grabs a Kleenex from the coffee table and continues, while dabbing at her eyes. "Her father adored her and she in turn loved him to the point of which I would start feeling jealous. She never wanted to stay a weekend with me, even though I had finally found a home for us, and she never allowed me to be beside her at her most important moments."
I nod and take these tidbits of Jenna's past in. "Go on."
"Five months ago, she and her father were driving down a high way in the New York State and a drunk driver swerved into their convertible. Robert, her father, was found dead on the scene and poor Jenna was found semi-conscious still whispering for her dad beside him." She stops and stares straight into my shocked eyes. "That day, Jenna stopped being Jenna. And all she has to show for that horrible, life altering day is the small scar on her cheek. Everything else, you would have never known. But if you would have seen my Jenna before, you would know that this Jenna is a complete stranger."
"Mom?" Jenna's voice comes from behind us and I turn faster than I intended to and now face a slightly angered Jenna. "What are you talking about?"
Pamela is quiet and I know that she told him. I heard her call me a stranger and I instantly knew. She stutters and the Mike guy stands up. "Jenna," he says quietly and takes a step towards me.
I take a step back and shake my head. "There you go, you finally know why I am like this." I turn to go up the stairs and Mike grabs my arm.
"Please Jenna, let me talk to you, please let me in!"
I pull my arm away from his grasp and feel tears welling up in my eyes. "Why would you want in? I am nothing to explore, I am just a waste of imperfection!" I yell at him and run up the stairs, knowing that he will not follow.

Our Guests say it better than we can!
'Gardener's Cottage' is located in Historic Flat Rock on the Beckon Ridge Estate. Overlooking a picture perfect pond, you will feel the stress drain from your soul as you listen to the sound of water running downstream and watch the fish swim casually about. How can this special place be so close to town?
Inside you will find the 1 BR & 1 bath cottage comfortable and cozy. Downstairs is a fully equipped kitchen and dining area overlooking the pond & living room with 32 inch flat screen TV. The furniture is comfortable and practical.
Up the spiral stair (or the exterior steps) is the lovely bedroom with queen sized bed and bathroom with stall shower and laundry area. The cottage has central air and heat and is bright and airy.
Sit outside the bedroom on the small covered balcony to enjoy your morning coffee, evening cocktail or to read a book. It is a lovely private space overlooking the pond, dam and grounds.
While walking along the stream & around the pond (you may stay on the paved drive if you prefer), remember to stop for a bit to sit on a bench or one of the landscape walls and notice how nature surrounds you. The wonderful wildlife and foliage is not to be missed.
If you come by motorcycle, you probably know that this whole area is a Bikers Bonanza with great rides in all directions! Cruise Little River Rd, to Crab Creek to Dupont Forest or to Pisgah Forest and the ultimate...the Blue Ridge Parkway. (For your convenience, covered bike parking is gladly provided at the main house.)
All that Historic Flat Rock has to offer, the shops at Little Rainbow Row, Carl Sandburgs Connemara Farm, the goats, the Playhouse are all less than 2 miles away...and Hendersonville's historic Main Street is only 3 miles away, with many excellent restaurants, shops, and exhibits...and Saluda, The Green River Gorge with kayaking, tubing, waterfalls fishing and - ZIP LINES OVER THE TREES- all within a half hours drive. Breweries and Wineries abound!
You know, when the Gardener ran off with the Maid, we were concerned... But The Maids Quarters have been rented, and the Gardeners Cottage is ready for your arrival; so give us a call. OUR CALENDAR IS KEPT UP TO DATE - BOOK NOW!
*The owners live in the main house. They enjoy their privacy and they will respect yours.

Victor & Darlene purchased this cottage in 2012
We fell in love with this home and with Flat Rock. We are pleased to offer Gardener's Cottage for your vacation stay.
The grounds, the pond, the stream, distance to town, watching the water over the dam. You too will love Gardener's Cottage.
My husband and I stayed at the Cottage in Flat Rock over a long weekend, and we had a wonderful stay. The cottage itself is very private, clean and comfortable. The cottage is charming and tucked away on a picture-perfect pond. We were able to enjoy the chimea and relax outside. The cottage is close to great hiking trails and many terrific restaurants in Flat Rock and downtown Hendersonville. Victor and Darlene were wonderful hosts. They took the time to provide us with many personalized recommendations, tell us about the town and history of the town and the house, and even provided our dog with a special locally-made dog treat. We highly recommend the Flat Rock Cottage, and cannot wait to visit again!
Our few days at the gardeners cottage was perfect. The location was quiet and very peaceful. The cottage had everything we needed and Victor and Darlene could not have been more accommodating. We look forward to our next visit to the cottage.
this cozy cottage is immaculately clean and very well appointed with very nice towels and sheets. the carl sandburg house around the corner is a fantastic spot (recommended by victor) and also nearby are many great hiking areas. we had great meals both in flat rock and downtown hendersonville at places recommended by victor- they have loads of great information about the area in the cottage- and also cooked/grilled several great meals at the cottage and relaxed by the chimea fire. it was a perfect long weekend and we will definitely be back!
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful cottage in Flat Rock. The cottage was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. Victor and Darlene had also provided special little touches such as freshly laid eggs and some local goodies which were much appreciated. The cottage is close to places to eat, supermarkets and the lovely town of Hendersonville . We also very much enjoyed the peaceful location Which allowed us to relax after a busy day out and about. There are plenty of things to do in the area, and a highlight for us was the view from the top of Chimney Rock, which was quite breathtaking. Unfortunately we were only in the area for 4 nights which was not enough, so we will definitely have to return in the future!
The cottage is perfect, from the comfort and personal touches in the interior, to the beautiful grounds the cottage sits on. The owners added so many extra touches to make us feel right at home and the cottage had everything we could need. The owners provide much information about surrounding area activities, and great suggestions. The surrounding area of Flat Rock was a delightful town with wonderful restaurants and Asheville not far away for even more restaurants and shopping. Most importantly, my husband and I were able to relax and enjoy ourselves on this beautiful property. We hope to visit again soon. We were delighted.
We found the Flat Rock Cottage to be perfect for our stay with our 2 Chihauhaus. Everything was so clean and the kitchen was outfitted with all we needed. The hosts Victor and Darlene went above and beyond with welcome gifts of wine, Jan, honey,cookies and dog treats for our dogs. We felt like we were staying at an Inn with their attentiveness to our needs. We would definitely return in we have the opportunity.
Gardeners Cottage is only 2 miles to The Carl Sandburg National Historic Site, the Flat Rock Playhouse, The Cinema, restaurants, golf, and Main Street Hendersonville with all its shops and nightlife.
Within a couple of miles you can patronize any number of good eating and drinking establishments, some with live entertainment on weekend nights. And you are only a few minutes from the supermarket or the food co-op for organic foods.
In addition to hiking trails and the House Tour, the Sandburg site, (aka Connemara Farm) is steeped in Civil War history. And be sure to see their nationally recognized goat herd. Of course the Dupont Forest, is just a short drive and The Green River Gorge with tube rentals and easy access for fishing and kayaking is just 30 minutes south. Zipline over the forest - AMAZING!
There is just so much to see and do around here in any season. The only problem is that once you find the hammock, you may not want to get up and go anywhere!
Private, but not isolated, Gardeners Cottage is right smack dab where you want to be!
Book for a 3 night stay, and add 2 tix to see a show at the Flat Rock Playhouse MainStage, just down the road, for an additional $40. (regular price $65.) Best available seats guaranteed!

I wore it for my first ride and got scratches in the left lens. Was not expecting such inferior quality. Repenting my purchase
Shape and quality
Hello Somnath,
I am sorry you have faced some trouble with MOAB Orange sunglasses. I would like to have more insight as to how the scratches have developed.
As mentioned by you, the scratches are only on the left lens which is unusual. I look forward to hearing from you to find the best solution.
All our sunglasses have polycarbonate lenses which makes them vulnerable to scratches when in contact with hard or rough surfaces. We use polycarbonate lenses for all our sunglasses as they are designed to be impact proof, light and safe for the eyes in case of damage.
Kind regards
Priya Jalakam

We name our machines by the department they are in and almost all use DHCP for IP address. As we move machines from department to department, they can change name, owner, everything. I don't want a machine that no longer exists still in the database, but I can't ignore it by IP, as it may get the same IP again by virtue of the same MAC.
I see now that I can rename it, which I guess is good since that way tickets stay, but still would be interested in a way to delete or ignore completely by something other than IP.

You can put in a dns name or ip range as well for skipping, but this probably still won't be what you want. Perhaps we could also look up the NetBIOS network name and skip on matches of these (nbtstat -A IP).

MBA@UNC New York City Immersion - Day Two
This weekend, 323 MBA@UNC students have assembled in New York City to participate in one of four immersion weekends offered each year. The NYC immersion focuses on the finance and media industries. For media track students, day two will focus on recent macro-level shifts in various sectors of the media industry, including a moderated discussion on the evolution of sports entertainment featuring John Kosner of ESPN and Vishal Shah of NFL. Finance track students will spend today delving deeply into topics on investment, featuring discussions on private equity, hedge funds, and venture capital with business leaders like Jeff Glueck of Matrix Partners and Rob Cohen of 2U.
MEDIA: The Power of Storytelling to Sell Your Brand
Heidi Schultz, UNC Kenan-Flagler Business School
About our speaker: Heidi Schultz is a professor of management and corporate communication and director of the management and corporate communication program at UNC Kenan-Flagler. She teaches oral and written business communication. She is the author of two books, Business Scenarios: A Context-Based Approach to Business Communication and The Elements of Electronic Communication. Her corporate and executive clients have included the American Financial Services Association, Cisco, Constella, GlaxoSmithKline, Environmental Protection Agency, Misys Health Care, Performance Food Group, Syngenta, U.S. Postal Service, W.C. Bradley, Xerox, public health managers and sports managers.
UNC Professor Heidi Schultz kicked off Saturday morning's session with a discussion about storytelling and the importance of building a personal brand. She cited examples proving that branding is important even for small household items. Given that, it should certainly be a top priority for you as an individual (not to mention for your business). So how do you differentiate yourself, and your brand, from all of the competition and clutter? As it turns out, building your brand is a byproduct of creating your personal story – and the "so what?" of your story. Professor Schultz helped us understand how to best get our point across by crafting and building the content for our stories, and leveraging these stories to form our own personal brand. It was an engaging and relevant session for every person in the room. The Immersion weekends are one of my favorite parts of this program. This is my second immersion and I look forward to attending at least two more! The immersion weekends are learning-intensive, but there's also a very social component, which really solidifies the relationships that you've been forming with your classmates during the cohort. Last night, I got to see the Statue of Liberty while dining on a dinner cruise on the Hudson River. It was incredible. -Melanie Bullock, October 2013 Cohort
FINANCE: Opening the Black Box: Understanding Different Investment Approaches
Venture Capital/Private Equity Panel
About our speaker: Josh Cohen is the Managing Partner and cofounder of City Light Capital. He is also the Chief Investment Officer for Tyden Ventures, a single family office based in Grand Rapids, Michigan. He is currently on the Board of HeroX, a joint venture with the X Prize Foundation, and is an Observer to the Boards of 2U and StraighterLine.
Today's afternoon panel with Josh Cohen reminded me of the benefits of being in a highly reputable MBA program. The relationship that Kenan-Flagler has with successful field practitioners allows students to more intimately explore possible careers options. Without Kenan-Flagler, I doubt I would ever have the opportunity to get face time with Josh and listen to him describe his own career, the venture capital industry in general, and more importantly, factors that drive his decision making process. Overall, the panel was very engaging and Josh's firsthand accounts of his own adventures as a venture capitalist complemented very nicely the theoretical lecture regarding the venture capital industry we heard earlier in the day. I was convinced of joining MBA@UNC for the flexibility and presumed high quality education. However, one of my biggest reservations was how to go about building a network and comradery without close physical proximity. After attending three immersions, I am comfortable to say that MBA@UNC is definitely capable of instilling a strong sense of community. During these immersions, I am not only excited to see some familiar faces but I also greatly appreciate the opportunity to meet fellow Tar Heels who have incredible stories and career experiences. It's said that one of the best aspects about attending a top-20 business program is the quality of the students. I can absolutely validate that truth for MBA@UNC after my immersion experiences. Immersions allow me to appreciate fellow classmates for who they are beyond the classroom. I must say that I've always left an immersion not only with more friends, but also more inspired to make an impact. -David Kuo, April 2013 Cohort
MEDIA: The Evolution of Sports Entertainment (moderated discussion)
John Kosner (ESPN) and Vishal Shah (NFL)
About our speakers: As ESPN's executive vice president, digital and print media, John Kosner heads up development for ESPN.com, the world's leading online sports service, ESPN The Magazine, and ESPN's industry-leading applications for all screens including SportsCenter, the most popular sports app of all-time. Kosner also oversees ESPN's digital content development in Social Media and its partnerships with Facebook, Twitter and other top third-party networks. Vishal Shah is the VP of Media Strategy & Business Development at the NFL, responsible for the strategy and execution of NFL's domestic media growth initiatives, including those related to NFL's owned & operating properties as well as partnerships. Prior to the NFL, Vishal was a venture capitalist at GGV Capital, focusing his time on mobile and digital media investment opportunities in the US and China. Vishal graduated from the University of Pennsylvania.
Concluding the second day of the NY immersion was a panel discussion titled, "The Evolution of Sports Entertainment" featuring John Kosner of ESPN and Vishal Shah of the NFL. While the focus of the discussion was geared toward the role of media with regards to the NFL and ESPN, the panel was conducted exclusively through student submitted questions covering a variety of topics. Instead of a prepared presentation, the candidness of this format allowed the students to touch on some of the more controversial topics including player safety in the NFL and DirecTV's exclusive contract with the NFL. The discussion was certainly enjoyable for an avid sports fan like myself, but also tied in more general business topics including the use of advanced data analysis and the importance of innovation in a rapidly changing market. Today's panel discussion has absolutely reinforced the value of the MBA@UNC immersions -- the opportunity to sit with my classmates and interact with innovative business leaders in a more personal setting. I'm attending my third immersion and this experience has once again proven to be a great blend of student networking, highly informative educational sessions, and creative group problem solving.-Kevin Liekweg, October 2012 Cohort

Rob Cohen, COO and President of 2U, Inc., and Jeff Glueck, COO of Foursquare, led a panel on entrepreneurship and venture capitalism. As serial entrepreneurs and venture capitalists themselves, Cohen and Glueck answered questions about how to pitch your business idea to prospective partners and investors, how to raise capital, and how to decide which investors you should work with.
Cristina Fitzsimmons graduated valedictorian from MBA@UNC—and she is proof that one can successfully juggle school, work and family while pursuing a degree.
The leadership initiative, which is offered in every University of North Carolina Kenan-Flagler MBA program, gives students a valuable opportunity to gain strategic leadership skills through practice, feedback and coaching.
Offered four times per year, MBA@UNC immersions are unique opportunities for students to meet in some of the business world's most important cities, confer with top professors and industry leaders, and collaborate with their fellow students to apply what they have learned to real-life challenges. On day three of the New York Global Immersion, finance track students will spend their closing sessions considering the impact and implications of ethics in financial services with UNC Kenan-Flagler professor Stephen Arbogast and learning from the invaluable career experience of Sallie Krawcheck, founder of Ellevate (formerly 85 Broads). The media track's closing sessions will examine modern media marketing from every angle, including a practitioner panel with marketing specialists from A&E Networks and American Express OPEN. Join us as we blog live from the final day in New York City.

They relish the fine points of the painstaking design and craftsmanship. They recognize the rich feel and finish of solid hardwood, and know that other manufacturers' references of "selected veneers" and "engineered wood" are merely covering up plywood or worse. They appreciate that ample storage doesn't have to compromise style. And that's why they settle for nothing less than Keystone Collection quality for their dining room furniture as well.

I think of Pubs as the Italian version of an Osteria where oftentimes the owner and family are in the kitchen making the food...simple and delicious with complex flavors. This is not your typical American Pub guys! Black pudding is common in Ireland, and will certainly come with a traditional Irish Breakfast at your B&B. My philosophy is try a bite and if you don't like it, ...

Technical Oil (2010-05-28)
Morning Report
Crude continues to push upwards while forming a bullish technical pattern this time after halting at the top level recorded yesterday at 75.35, which represents the neckline for the suggested new bullish technical pattern. There seems to be clear overbought signs appearingon momentum indicators, which could force crude to retest 73.55 which meet with the 23.6% Fibonacci correction, before continuing the bullish trend over an intraday basis; targeting the attack of the mentioned neckline that paves the way to achieve more upside movement which may reach 77.15 initially. Keep in mind that the breach of 73.55 will pave the way to achieve more bearish correction that in its own role will weaken chances of completing the suggested bullish scenario.
The trading range for today is among the key support at 72.25 and the key resistance at 77.15.
The short term trend is to the downside as far as 79.20 remains intact with targets at 61.60.
Weekly Report Previous Report Support73.5572.7072.2571.2570.35Resistance74.8075.3575.8576.2577.15RecommendationBased on the charts and explanations above our opinion is buying the pair from 73.55 targeting 75.35 and stop loss below 72.25, might be appropriate.

Match Report
Posted Sat 08 Nov 14 at 16:45 PM
Report: Gillingham 1-2 City
Mark Perrow reports from Priestfield
City were full value for the victory that sealed their progress into round two of the FA Cup despite a nervy finale at Priestfield.
The visitors were in complete control throughout a first half in which Greg Cunningham headed City into a deserved lead five minutes before the interval.
The second period would prove a closer affair, although Jay Emmanuel-Thomas' placed shot from distance looked set to kill the game as a contest 13 minutes from the end.
Danny Kedwell's ruthlessly dispatched penalty four minutes later left City temporarily on the back foot, but a late storm was weathered to ensure a safe passage into the second round at the first time of asking for Steve Cotterill's side.
Cotterill lived up to his promise of shuffling his pack in the middle of a two-week break from league action, making five changes to his starting XI.
There were recalls for Adam El-Abd, Scott Wagstaff, Marlon Pack, Cunningham and Emmanuel-Thomas, with Derrick Williams, Joe Bryan, Korey Smith and Aaron Wilbraham for once sitting on the bench.
Mark Little was absent from the 18-man squad with a hamstring strain not considered serious by his manager.
It was to be a first half full of City possession but lacking clear-cut chances.
Plenty of the football being played by the visitors was pleasing on the eye, although only occasionally quick enough to open up a home team without a league win to their name since September.
Emmanuel-Thomas tried his luck speculatively from distance, while Gillingham's threat from crosses was apparent but not especially threatening.
City's possession was dominant and Ayling set about increasing the tempo with an impressive burst out of defence and quick one-two with Emmanuel-Thomas to engineer space inside the penalty area.
Ayling initially turned down the opportunity to shoot, instead cutting inside the sliding challenge of Leon Legge before driving the ball against the legs of defender John Egan just as the chance looked at its most inviting.
Then Wagstaff broke free down the right and pulled the ball back from the byeline for Kieran Agard, who swivelled to shoot but could not muster the necessary power to trouble goalkeeper Stuart Nelson.
City were firmly in control and Gillingham's apprehension was evident when Legge slashed a leg at a Wade Elliott cross and was only inches away from diverting the ball into the bottom corner of his own goal.
The Gills were increasingly reluctant to commit bodies forward and only succeeded in inviting pressure, ultimately leading to the opening goal five minutes before the break.
Wagstaff's energy took him to the byeline again, this time producing a floated cross towards the back post begging to be attacked.
It was an opportunity
was not willing to pass up, as the Irishman showed no lack of desire to launch himself in front of his man and head the ball into the unguarded net with Nelson taken out of the equation by the quality of Wagstaff's delivery.
It was just reward for the level of dominance enjoyed by the Robins in a first period in which they never looked troubled, and nearly doubled their lead through Luke Freeman's rasping right-footed strike pushed to safety by Nelson.
Gillingham old boy Freeman, who made his debut for the club in an FA Cup first round tie at the age of 15 seven years ago, was at the heart of things again when Cunningham spurned a glorious opportunity find the net for a second time.
When Freeman's cross from the right was not struck cleanly by Agard, the ball dropped kindly for Cunningham six yards out only for the wing-back to sky his shot. It had fallen to him quickly and unexpectedly, but was still a gilt-edged chance.
Gillingham, meanwhile, had found a spring to their step. The introduction of right winger Jermaine McGlashan had seen the hosts switch from 3-5-2 to 4-4-2 and carry a much greater threat.
From one low McGlashan cross, top scorer Cody McDonald could only send his shot high over Frank Fielding's crossbar as he reached for a ball only fractionally behind him. It was by far the Gills' best chance to date.
It would prove a costly miss from the home side's point of view, as
struck the killer second 13 minutes from time.
Ironically the striker had just dropped back into a midfield role following the introduction of Wes Burns to partner Agard up front.
But when a long ball forward dropped kindly into his path, it was business as usual for Emmanuel-Thomas, who picked his spot to score with no more than a casual placed shot from all of 25 yards which just crept inside Nelson's right-hand post.
At this point City's progress seemed assured, but Cotterill's side would make things hard for themselves after Aden Flint was adjudged to have handled Antonio German's header, prompting
to crash home the resulting penalty nine minutes from time.
Gillingham bombarded Fielding's penalty area with a late barrage of corners, but City held firm to complete a job well done in Kent.

During development of instruction and into the implementation phase, how the instruction will be distributed and implemented is another thing that the instructional designer must consider. In this phase of instructional design, the ID must consider how the teacher will be prepared and how the learners will be prepared for the instruction.
The facilitator plan is a document that the instructional designer may create for the instructor, and is most often used with the ADDIE model of instructional design, and it assumes that the course facilitator will receive training prior to conducting the class.
A facilitator plan includes:
The following is an example of a facilitator plan for the business writing course.
In your role as an instructional designer, you may or may not be involved in the selection of the teacher or trainer, if the instruction is to be delivered via a facilitator. The trainer will ideally have facilitation skills. He or she will be responsible for not only delivering the instruction, but setting the pace of the class, responding to learner issues, and even possibly providing subject-matter expertise if he or she is knowledgeable in the content area.
Train the Trainer events can be used to prepare the instructor to deliver the content. In a Train the Trainer session, the ID often acts as the facilitator, delivering the instruction to the instructor as if he or she is the learner. Other information likely shared includes:
In the business writing course, you might run a Train the Trainer session to walk through the chosen instructor on the learners, who are mid-level managers who frequently need to communicate with clients. The goal of the training is to effectively communicate via email and letter. You would want to share with the instructor that the learners come from a variety of backgrounds and that they do not consider themselves skilled writers.
The following is an example of a Train the Trainer agenda for the business writing class:
Preparing students for training helps to ensure that they interact with the instruction effectively.
Part of this phase of design is identifying how many students will take part in the instruction. If the training will take place in a classroom, classroom logistics will need to be determined, possibly by the ID.
Another aspect of preparing students is identifying any communication that needs to take place before instruction begins. Students should be notified of information pertinent to the training, including any prerequisite information that they need to have completed before the class or training takes place.
In our example about creating a business writing course, the class is going to consist of 12 midlevel managers. Each manager uses a laptop, and they will need to bring these to class to practice some writing activities. You or the instructor would compose an email that will be sent to students a week before training, letting them know they should bring their laptops to class.

Topic: Pets (09/13/04)
TITLE: A Day in the Life of Houdini the Cat
By Annette Agnello
(as told to her owner Annette C. Agnello)
"My day starts early. My parents, Mario and Annette, get up around three in the morning. I don't understand why they do that but it happens most every morning.
Mario lets me out of the bedroom, and leaves the kitten inside. Hoover is a little pest, he always wants to play and sometimes I'm just not in the mood.
I have a few minutes alone in the semi-darkness. When I check in on my pet the mouse that lives behind the stove. He used to play with me but the kitten ruined that. When he played with it he almost killed it and the little fellow I don't blame him for being a little standoffish anymore.
Next Mario comes out and plays with the dishes. Then he gets her tea, she's spending the time in the bedroom reading out of the big book she keeps beside the bed. When he gets back to the bedroom to read the same big book but he reads it on the computer. I think they are both crazy with all the time they spend doing click, clicks on the computer. I wish I knew what the two of them see in a book they call the Bible but both of them insist on reading some out of it each day. He keeps reading when she leaves the bedroom.
Annette comes out and plays with food. Uck, I've tried it a time or two and can't understand how they could eat that stuff, but they do and act like they are enjoying it. They would be so much better off if they joined me in a bowl of dry chow. They're dumb enough they insist on fruit and vegetables, bread and eggs.
I tried eggs once. I didn't like them, I hissed at them and they both laughed at me, they were nice and tried to comfort me. I wasn't afraid of the eggs they were just to slimy and wet. I was hissing because they were cold and wet.
She finishes cooking their breakfast and goes to get him. Well, finally they both come out to eat their meal while talking and laughing. When they finish they herd me back into the bedroom as they both come back to the room. You'd think I couldn't take care of myself for a few hours until she comes out again.
Then she and I, sometimes all of us, are back in the room. I get my breakfast and a nap if the little one will let me. Mario leaves, and she sleeps.
When she wakes she goes to tend to the old one. Sometimes I go out with my mistress; sometimes I am stuck with the kid. After a few minutes she's back and we're in for a long day.
I look out of the window a while then I settle down for a nap. She sits by the foot of the bed doing click, clicks. I loose track of time, I snooze, or go out to the counter or the sofa for a change of scenery.
Later she goes playing with food again. I have the freedom of the house. I spend my time in different ways, but eventually we all come back to the bedroom and I go to sleep again. After all I need my rest. I prefer to sleep by her pillow.
If I don't go in, I sleep on the back of the couch and when I'm ready to go in the old one opens the door for me. He's gruff and he yells, sometimes he doesn't open the door wide enough and yells when I hesitate about going in. But as angry as he sounds, he's not angry.
So goes a day in my life. It's a good life, one to be envied. My people give me the best food and spend time with me. They actually got the kitten for me, as if I wanted a little pest like that kitten. He's so cute, I used to be the cute one.
They don't understand why they don't understand the joke they keep quoting is true. "Cats have staff." My humans need to know their place. Staff can be let go they have to remember that."

Won't they give you a key if you as for one? I've got a key - all I needed was an msn passport. Am I missing something?

CANADA STOCKS-TSX drives higher but closes off 7-month high
* TSX index rises 1.3 pct after touching 7-month high
* Energy, materials lead rally (Adds details, quote, updated numbers)
By Cameron French
TORONTO, May 20 (Reuters) - Toronto's main stock index climbed more than 1 percent on Wednesday, boosted by rising oil and gold prices, but it pared stronger early gains as investors took profits after a sharp two-day rise.
The index rose by as much as 2.6 percent shortly after the open, touching a seven-month high of 10,365.39, as oil charged to a six-month high above $62 a barrel, while gold climbed to an eight-week peak above $940 an ounce.
Energy issues rose 2.17 percent, while the mining-heavy materials sector climbed 3.03 percent, largely on the back of gold stocks.
Among materials stocks, Yamana Gold (YRI.TO: Quote) surged 7 percent to C$11.42, while Goldcorp (G.TO: Quote) climbed 6.3 percent to C$42.14. Stronger copper prices also boosted the sector.
In the energy subgroup, Suncor Energy (SU.TO: Quote) rose 3.4 percent to C$36.26, while UTS Energy UTS.TO gained 4 percent to C$1.57.
All told, the Toronto Stock Exchange's S&P/TSX composite index .GSPTSE rose 131.49 points, or 1.3 percent, to finish at 10,232.44. Continued...

Rebecca Carter's (jessica drake) decision to become a psychologist was easy. After all, she always liked helping people and had always been a good listener. But she doesn't understand why she's decided to become a psychologist who sees mostly cops from the Metropolitan Police Department. Having blamed her detective father's(Randy Spears) lifestyle for the chronic pain and loneliness she's suffered since an early age, she wonders why she'd willingly repeat her past with men who are so much like him. What's more, she's found herself dating a detective. One who is on the front line of a serial killer case and who has little time for her. As she ponders her decisions, two unexpected people enter her life: A handsome patient who offers her what her boyfriend is no longer able to give. . . and a cold-blooded murderer who wants her dead.

Piątkowo transmitter
The Piątkowo transmitter (Polish designation: SLR Piątkowo) is a facility for directional radio and broadcasting of local FM and TV programmes at Piątkowo, a northern residential district of the Polish city of Poznań. The Piątkowo transmitter, which is situated at 52°27′35″N 16°54′27″E / 52.45972°N 16.90750°E and property of the Polish company Emitel, consists of two towers of different height and construction type.
The smaller tower is a 76 metre tall free-standing concrete tower, which was built in 1963. Unlike most concrete telecommunication towers, it has no antenna mast on its top. The higher tower of Piątkowo transmitter is a 128 metre tall free-standing lattice tower, which was built in 1993. This tower is the second tallest structure in Poznań (a chimney of a power station in the urban part Karolin is taller) and belongs to the tallest free-standing radio towers in Poland.

Exotic Option Pricing and Advanced Levy Models
€ 182,99
Lieferbar innert 2 Wochen
Oktober 2005
BeschreibungSince around the turn of the millennium there has been a general acceptance that one of the more practical improvements one may make in the light of the shortfalls of the classical Black-Scholes model is to replace the underlying source of randomness, a Brownian motion, by a Lévy process. Working with Lévy processes allows one to capture desirable distributional characteristics in the stock returns. In addition, recent work on Lévy processes has led to the understanding of many probabilistic and analytical properties, which make the processes attractive as mathematical tools. At the same time, exotic derivatives are gaining increasing importance as financial instruments and are traded nowadays in large quantities in OTC markets. The current volume is a compendium of chapters, each of which consists of discursive review and recent research on the topic of exotic option pricing and advanced Lévy markets, written by leading scientists in this field. In recent years, Lévy processes have leapt to the fore as a tractable mechanism for modeling asset returns. Exotic option values are especially sensitive to an accurate portrayal of these dynamics. This comprehensive volume provides a valuable service for financial researchers everywhere by assembling key contributions from the world's leading researchers in the field. Peter Carr, Head of Quantitative Finance, Bloomberg LP This book provides a front-row seat to the hottest new field in modern finance: options pricing in turbulent markets. The old models have failed, as many a professional investor can sadly attest. So many of the brightest minds in mathematical finance across the globe are now in search of new, more accurate models. Here, in one volume, is a comprehensive selection of this cutting-edge research. Richard L. Hudson, former Managing Editor of The Wall Street Journal Europe, and co-author with Benoit B. Mandelbrot of The (Mis)Behaviour of Markets: A Fractal View of Risk, Ruin and Reward

Letter: Mr. Faria should think outside the lines
To the editor:
What a laugh when I saw the front page of the newspaper with the comments of John Faria.
Though I have tended to vote more Democratic in my choices I have never considered a party affiliation over the best candidate for the job on the Town Council. In my opinion, this is the most organized cohesive and thoughtful town council thus far.
The choice of Mary Parella as the chairwoman was smart and excellent regardless of the party. Though Nathan and Ed are great visionaries, experience in a chairperson's role is important as I learned first-hand with David Barbosa at the helm of the search committee for harbormaster. His experience was invaluable, not because he is a Democrat, but because of his long history on the dynamics of how things work.
When Mr. Faria (whom I have never met) refers to "same old, same old" I laughed at the hypocrisy of the statement because every single thing he mentioned was in fact old-school and ironically what he accused Tim of. I can't imagine going back to the condescending tones and the eye rolling of previous town council members. Those were embarrassing times for our town.
Our present Town Council has been impressive especially in their ability to be open-minded and collaborative with the town businesses and organizations of our town. Tim adds light and a calm approach to the panel; Ed and Nathan add a smart business focus; and Mary and Halsey add thoughtful questions and years of Bristol experience. Tony Teixeira as the Town Administrator rounds out our leadership to a new level and the combination of all of them acting like grown-ups shows a refreshing level of admirable maturity that frankly I have never witnessed.
I am finally proud of the leadership of our tight-knit community.
If Mr. Faria would stop thinking like a pouting John Boehner and start thinking like a visionary who can cross party lines to get important initiatives done, we could actually lead our state with our ideas for a change. Staying in the lines and in the old square box of yesteryears' master-level party mentality will not help our town move forward and set precedence for other towns to follow. Isn't the point of a strong and balanced town council to improve and better our town for our residents and our visitors? Our town may be historically old, but we don't have to think like that. We can be trailblazers who work together with kind hearts and laser light focus on what the future holds and how we want it shaped.
As a 13-year successful business woman in town, and a 25-year resident, mom, community activist and absolute lover and supporter of our incredible authentic Town of Bristol, it is my hope that we can stop focusing on party division and come together to help each other be more successful.
I really hope Mr. Faria can change his old school approach to small town politics with his lack of vision and replace it with what can be.
Alayne White
11 Constitutution St.
Totally agree with Ms. White's assessment of our present town council, I would only add it is Harry Reid who has refused to cross the aisle, not John Boehner.
Where can I find this article with Mr. Faria's comments?
Here it is, big as life, twice as beautiful: http://www.eastbayri.com/news/bristol-democrats-reject-councilor-sweeney-for-membership/
It's particularly telling that, of the 12 original comments posted to the article, the two letters written to the paper, and the other comment added here, not one is in support of Mr. Faria's position.

Pasar Malam
Night Markets, which are called 'Pasar Malam', are a very prominent feature of Malaysian shopping. They're available in every state and popular because they allow locals to do shopping for their household needs within their own residential areas. Night markets are basically streets which are converted for one day only in a week into a market-place, usually in housing estates of residential areas.
In Kuala Lumpur, you can find many night markets happening each day in different places throughout the week. In these Pasar Malams, expect to find all sorts of merchandise under the sun. You can buy various items such as household goofs, audio/visual equipment, batteries, trinkets etc. Even more popular are pirated goods that display prominent brand names from 'Gucci' handbags to 'Nike' T-shirts and 'Rolex' watches to the latest cinematic offerings on DVD.
You can also shop for fruits and other fresh produce or try out different kinds of cakes and food. Visiting the Pasar Malam is indeed a popular pastime for locals after dinner, to just stroll around, look and shop as they walk from one end to the other.
- Location: Bangsar night market: Sunday evenings. (beside the mosque)
Connaught night market: Wednesday evenings. (Jalan Cerdas, the longest night market)

Paul E. Steiger, the former managing editor of The Wall Street Journal who oversaw the newspaper's coverage of the deal that resulted in Rupert Murdoch's News Corp taking over the Journal's parent company, Dow Jones, has told a convention in Miami that he ceels "conflicted but hopeful" about the deal. Speaking to the Asian American Journalists Assn., Steiger said, "There is no question Rupert will be the boss." He indicated that he was well aware that Murdoch has used his media holdings in the past to further his business interests. Nevertheless, he said, "Any hint of that at The Wall Street Journal would destroy its value." There has been considerable speculation that Murdoch will use the Journal to boost the Fox Business Network, which is due to launch in October. Currently the Journal has an exclusive deal in place with rival CNBC that is not due to expire until 2012. The London Financial Times commented today (Monday): "Preparations for the channel are going ahead without taking Dow Jones into account ... but, longer term, it is assumed the deal was taken into into Mr Murdoch's bid calculations."
