We met whilst posting our original songs over at MP3Unsigned.com. It was only recently that we came together and realised that we had very similar musical tastes, and that we could marry our two styles together to form what you will find here. We both find melodic rock/pop, song with strong melody, harmony and good writing a real buzz and aspire to achieve these qualities, though you will have to judge to what extent we do so. So, yeah, we are both really excited about this new found partnership (Feb2012) and are putting together (we feel) some nice catchy tunes which we hope to get critiqued on the site. We really do value your comments and advice on our new musical adventure. And as with most of us, this is all homespun stuff, so we appreciate all help in making the tunes as best we can.

Hononegah Community High School is a public high school in Rockton, Illinois and is the only high school comprising Hononegah Community High School District 207. Located between Rockford and the southern border of Wisconsin, the school serves students from the towns of Rockton, Roscoe, Shirland, and parts of South Beloit.
The high school opened its doors in 1923. The school is named after Ho–no–ne–gah, the Native American wife of Stephen Mack, Jr., who is generally credited for founding the town of Rockton. The school's namesake is honored with a large mural in the school's main lobby (see gallery below).
One of the unique aspects of Hononegah is its inflatable "bubble" field house, the first of its kind for any Illinois public school,[6] until its collapse in December 2015.[7]
Hononegah High School was built in 1922, and dedicated in February 1923. Additions to the building have taken place in the 1950s, 1971 (metal gym complex), 1981 classroom addition, 1996 (Performing Arts Center and classrooms) and 2003 (new entrance, locker rooms, guidance and social studies as well as the information system's academy). The cafeteria was originally the theater and gym. The concession area in the metal gym was the location of the Hononegah Theater in the 1970s through 1996.
George Kelsey, a local entrepreneur and successful businessperson, donated $1.6m in 1941 to build a new football stadium, and the school honors him with an award presented to one student each year, based on GPA, being in at least two sports and two honors level classes, and a lack of criminal background.[citation needed]
District 207 purchased land near Interstate I-90 to accommodate a second campus if enrollment continues to rise. Notable additions to the base campus include a Performing Arts Center capable of seating 1,100 and an athletic practice dome(which deflated in a hail storm during the winter of 2015). The school is 86% White, 6% Hispanic, 2% Black, and 2% Asian

In 2011, Hononegah had an average composite ACT score of 21.0,[citation needed] and graduated 88.0% of its senior class.[4] Though from 2006 to 2014 Hononegah students have achieved 9 perfect scores.[8][9] As of 2013, Hononegah had not made Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) on the Prairie State Achievement Examination, a state test used in Illinois to fulfill the mandates of the federal No Child Left Behind Act.[4][needs update] The school overall did not meet minimum expectations in mathematics.[4][needs update]
In 2008, the Chicago Sun-Times listed Hononegah as the 50th best public high school in the state of Illinois based on average scores on the PSAE, and one of the ten best outside of the Chicago area.[10]
In 2010, Newsweek[11] announced that Hononegah qualified for the magazine's 2011 list of the nation's top high schools. Over the past three years Hononegah has increased the amount of advanced placement tests its students are taking.
Hononegah competes in the Northern Illinois Conference (NIC-10) and is a member of the Illinois High School Association (IHSA), which governs most high school athletics and competitive activities in the state. Teams are stylized as the Indians.
The following teams have finished in the top four of their respective IHSA sponsored state championship tournaments or meets:[12]
- Football: semifinals (1996–97); 2nd place (1985–86)
- Volleyball (girls): 2nd place (2006–07)
- Wrestling: 4th place (2004–05, 2006–07)
Hononegah is also one of five drafting schools of the Rockford Icemen hockey program. Along with Boylan High School, Guilford High School, Harlem High School, and Christian Life, Hononegah contributes nearly ten student athletes to the Rockford Icemen who recently won their fifteenth consecutive Illinois state championship.[13]

The guardsMature
The three guards were standing around a large crate, with a large lantern sitting on it that didn't quite illuminate the whole room, casting huge shadows across the walls and leaving enigmatic patches of darkness in the corners. Into one of these corners, Slagir crept, moving slowly and silently, raising the crossbow as he moved. Claria moved down another wall, with the same stealth, judging the distance between herself and the nearest guard, watching for Slagir's move.
The next few moments were fast and crowded. She heard the faint whisper of the crossbow's release, and saw the furthest guard collapse, with black blood pouring from his smashed helmet. Before he had hit the ground, she leapt, landing both feet into the armoured chest of the second guard and stabbing her claws into the gap between chestplate and helmet, warm blood gushed out of the wound, and the Agetian staggered back as she jumped back off. The third turned to face her, drawing a huge blade from his back and swinging it back for a strike. Claws on both hands fully extended, hands covered in the black blood of her victim, Claria stood her ground, baring her canines and hissing viciously at the armoured giant towering over her. The guard suddenly jerked, lumbered forwards a few paces, and then fell forward, a bolt lodged firmly in the back of his head.
"Nicce work." Slagir stepped out of the shadows and crept over to the bleeding guard, jerking the bolt from his broken skull.
"I'd say the same, but you really had me worried for a moment there, I thought he was going to charge me." Claria wiped down her claws on a rag from her pocket before retracting them.
"I wouldn't have stood a chance."
"I wasss very impresssed at your ssstand off." Slagir hissed, examining the other corpse, "Ahh... would you look at thisss; bolt broken, sssome people have jussst don't have the courtesssy to fall backwardsss."
"Huh, maybe being shot makes them less inclined to convenience you." Claria turned her attention to the vault door, and immediately regretted it. It was a ten foot circle of solid metal. The handle alone looked like it weighed more than her and Slagir combined. There was no visible lock.
"By the Emperor..."
Slagir turned from his inspection of the bodies and padded over to join her,
"Ssso, thisss iss it? It would ssseem to live up to itsss reputation."
"And we have to get in there somehow."
"You can open any door, no?"
"I can open any LOCK, this door doesn't even have one!"
Slagir thought for a moment, then reached into his shoulder pad, and pulled out a small datapad. Flicking it on, he scrolled through the briefing that Oracle had provided.
"It sssaysss the lock isss voice activated." he read on a bit again, then tapped at the screen. A grotesque, tentacled head emerged from the screen and spoke a few, unintelligible words in an equally grotesque voice.
"Gods!" hissed Claria, "What in Grim's name was that?"
"Our employer, apparently. I don't-"
Slagir was cut off by a dull, grinding noise. The huge handle of the vault door had begun to turn slowly, and, as the two thieves looked on in awe, the door slowly began to swing open.

I'm not sure what people were expecting out of the free agency process, that Shultz would just sign with the first team to make an offer? He wasn't the one who invited teams to come down and make a pitch; they did that themselves. Nor did he lead anyone on in the decision making process. Teams made their offer, he evaluated and then made his decision. And he was courteous enough to thank the other teams for their interest and decline their offers personally.
There's a shortsightedness to blame the media figurehead but what people need to realize is that Shultz wasn't the one inviting the media and the endless twitter speculation on his account; there's apparently enough people who have nothing else going on in their lives to do that entirely by choice and countless more who will devour the information and then whine and complain when it becomes too much, even when they can simply choose to not pay attention.
He is a two faced liar as he told the ducks several times he planned on signing with them, if he had not then the ducks could have traded him. He is an ass and I hope he is a bust.

Good Reading
- Ive read through a good bit of stories here on creepy pasta and i really do like most of them. Some stories like Lost Silver Ive never even heard of before this and after watching the actual game they made for it i was like "what theeee", and also Squidwards Suicide was pretty freaky and a few others, but most of the things Ive read have been under Suggested Reading or someone straight up told me a story was good so i read it. What are some of your favorite reads? (Something more along the lines of using paranoia tactics instead of just blood and gore, thats silly) Rich Russell 01:55, November 2, 2011 (UTC)

Market regulator SEBI in September 2010 had ushered in a major overhaul of the way mutual funds were sold with the introduction of biometric cards and stringent licensing norms for distributors to weed out agents indulging in frauds
New Delhi: Mutual funds have given their distributors one more month to comply with stringent identity verification norms wherein agents are required to get biometric cards that carry information like finger-print impressions, reports PTI.
Market regulator the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) in September 2010 ushered in a major overhaul of the way mutual funds were sold with the introduction of biometric cards and stringent licensing norms for distributors to weed out agents indulging in frauds.
As per the SEBI direction, all fund houses were asked to comply with 'Know-Your-Distributor (KYD)' norms before the grant or renewal of registration of distributors.
While the norms were implemented for new distributors with effect from 1 September 2010, existing distributors were required to comply with the new requirements by February 2011.
However, the mutual fund industry body Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI) has now extended this deadline by another month and asked the existing distribution registration holders to comply with the new KYD norms by the end of March.
The distributors and some fund houses, too, were not very keen on the new set of rules and had been lobbying hard for its annulment, said an official at a leading fund house.
The fund houses and distributors were hopeful of some reprieve after UK Sinha, formerly chairman of AMFI and chief of fund house UTI MF became the SEBI chairman last month.
The new requirements have not been done away so far, but AMFI has now extended the deadline for completing KYD process by existing registration by one month.
The fund houses would suspend payment of commissions to distributors not completing the KYD process by March 2011.
The agents would be required to get biometric cards that would carry an impression of their right hand index finger and help in immediately checking the distributor's record for any possible irregularities in the past.
The KYD norms, devised on the lines of KYC (Know-Your-Customer) norms followed by banks and other financial service providers, would require distributors to submit identity and address proofs, PAN and bank account details.
Besides keeping a check on agents indulging in fraudulent activities, the move is also aimed at weeding out non-serious agents and those indulging in mis-selling activities.
There are more than one lakh distributors working for about three dozen fund houses in the country.
Previously, grant of registration needed a certificate for having passed an AMFI certification examination, two photographs and payment of a registration fee.
However, pursuant to a directive from market regulator SEBI, the AMFI certification has been replaced by a certification programme for distributors conducted by the National Institute of Securities Markets (NISM).
Furthermore, the new KYD norms would require distributors to go through a stringent verification process that would look into the past record of the distributors to minimise the risk of mis-selling and other potential fraudulent activities.
In a circular to the fund houses on the new KYD norms, AMFI had said: "As you are aware, there are increasing numbers of instances of financial frauds played on the investors by Mutual Fund distributors/their employees."
"As one of the measures to control this situation, SEBI has advised AMFI to tighten the procedure for distributor registration. On reviewing the current procedure for registration of distributors, it was decided by the board to introduce a more stringent Know-Your-Distributor (KYD) process involving obtaining relevant documents and validation of such documents, personal verification and biometrics."
The fund houses would also require to initiate steps to ensure correctness of the information furnished by the distributors and conduct their in-person verification.
The move to remove tax sops with regard to SEZs seems at odds with the governmental policy and may spell the death knell for SEZs—once a hot favourite among corporates
Special Economic Zones (SEZs), once the hot favourite of Corporate India (as well as politicians and bureaucrats) have been dealt a body blow by the finance minister. In his Budget speech, finance minister Pranab Mukherjee said, "I propose to increase the rate of Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) from the current rate of 18% to 18.5% of book profits to keep the effective rate of the MAT at the same level. As a measure to ensure equal sharing of the corporate tax liability, I propose to levy MAT on developers of Special Economic Zones as well as units operating in SEZs."
Following the announcement, SEZs and units operating in SEZs would now lose the MAT exemption, which they currently enjoy. SEZ developers would also be subject to a dividend distribution tax (DDT) at the rate of 15% on dividends distributed to their shareholders.
Currently, SEZ developers are exempt from paying DDT and the Budget proposals would cumulatively give rise to tax costs of around 30%, which can distort cash flows.
"The decision to levy MAT on SEZ developers and units in SEZs is a bit sad and will certainly prove to be a dampener for investors. I think the euphoria associated with SEZs is now fading with regular changes in policies. India needs to look at other countries which have stable regimes & rules for SEZs. A few exporters may look or shift units overseas if they found the environment there more beneficial and less restrictive compared with India," said Jatin Mehta, chairman, Export Promotion Council for export oriented units (EoUs) and SEZs (EPCES) and chairman and managing director, Su-Raj Diamonds & Jewellery Ltd.
The levy of MAT on units set up in an SEZ and developers of an SEZ was not unexpected, especially given that the proposed Direct Taxes Code (DTC) provides for imposition of MAT on income earned by units set up in an SEZ or by a developer of an SEZ.
However, this is nonetheless a move which raises questions as to the direction of the governmental policy with respect to SEZs.
Dinesh Kanabar, deputy chief executive and and chairman for tax at KPMG, said, "The imposition of MAT on SEZ developers and units is retrograde as it seeks to impose tax on income received from investments made with a commitment of tax exemption. This is advancing the negative impact of the DTC and should have been avoided."
The government is keen on SEZs being one of the engines of growth of the economy and therefore promotes their growth, on the grounds that creation of SEZs will benefit the country in terms of creation of additional employment, world-class infrastructure and help make development uniform by creation of these zones in different regions of the country.
On the other hand, the move to remove tax sops with respect to SEZs seems at odds with the avowed governmental policy.
"While the 2011 Budget does have a number of welcome features, especially on the non-tax front, the withdrawal of specific tax benefits for SEZ developers and units and changes to the service tax regime may not augur well for the industry. The government will lose credibility in the eyes of investors if it frequently resorts to retrospective amendments, policy changes and introduction and revocation of incentives," said Nishith M Desai from Nishith Desai Associates (NDA), in a statement.
Echoing the same views, Emkay Global Financial Services Ltd, said in a report, "Sunset (clause) to the exemption granted to SEZs from 1 June 2011 in terms of MAT exemptions and exemptions from the application of DDT provision will be a big negative for fresh investments in SEZ development."
Earlier in April 2000, with a view to overcome the shortcomings experienced on account of the multiplicity of controls and clearances, absence of world-class infrastructure, unstable fiscal regime and with a view to attract larger foreign investment, the Indian government announced its SEZ policy.
After extensive consultations, the SEZ Act, 2005, supported by the SEZ Rules, came into effect on 10 February 2006, providing for drastic simplification of procedures and for single-window clearance on matters relating to Central as well as State governments.
In addition to the seven Central government SEZs and 12 State or private sector SEZs set up prior to the enactment of the SEZ Act, formal approvals have been accorded to 575 proposals out of which 348 SEZs have been notified. According to data from the Ministry of Commerce, there are 130 SEZs operational in India.
As per the provisions of the SEZ Act, the units of the SEZs are allowed duty-free goods for setting up SEZ units, exemption from service tax, MAT and Central Sales Tax (CST).
SEZ Units are allowed 100% Income Tax (I-T) exemption on export income under Section 10AA of the Income-Tax Act for the first 5 years, 50% for the next 5 years thereafter and 50% of the ploughed-back export profit for the next 5 years. Also, sales into the domestic tariff area by SEZ units attract all duties including countervailing duties.
Unfortunately, the government introduced the new DTC Bill in August 2010, which tried to alter the special benefits and provisions provided in the SEZ Act. The DTC Bill proposes that the SEZs notified on or before 31 March 2012 will get income-tax benefits while units in SEZs that commence commercial operations by March 2014 shall be allowed profit-linked deductions permitted under the Income Tax Act, 1961.
"These provisions do not meet the requirements of the SEZ scheme fully, and would very seriously affect employment, exports and investment in the SEZs," an official from the EPCES had said at that time.
NDA further said that a peculiar problem might also arise with respect to the MAT credit that would be available with a unit or a developer for setting off against future tax liability. In quite a few cases, especially in the case of developers, in the first couple of years of their tax holiday, the MAT credit with respect to such years may lapse or be on the verge of lapsing by the time such developers are taxable under the normal tax provisions, since the MAT credit can only be carried forward for a period of 10 years.
It is pertinent to point out here that a unit set up in an SEZ or a person developing an SEZ is entitled to a 100% tax holiday for a period ranging from 5 to 10 years. Further, in case of a foreign investor investing in a unit set up in an SEZ or a developer of an SEZ, claiming a tax credit in its home tax jurisdiction for the MAT paid in India may pose a challenge, the tax and law firm added.
Another key concern that this move raises is that a taxpayer is entitled to certainty in terms of tax law, so as to plan his or her economic affairs, and the removal of these tax sops has a regressive impact in many ways which adversely affects taxpayers who would have based their business models on the availability of these very benefits and incurred additional expenses to move into or develop an SEZ.
One suspects that this proposal may face stiff opposition in the coming weeks, NDA concluded.
Centre writes to Delhi HC, asking to set up special court to try accused in telecom scam
New Delhi: Sixty-three persons, including promoters and chief executive officers (CEOs) of 10 telecom companies are under the scanner in the 2G spectrum allocation case, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) today told the Supreme Court (SC).
The central government, which is also a party to the case, informed judges GS Singhvi and AK Ganguly that it is in favour of setting up a special court to try the accused in the 2G case, and that the law minister has written to the Delhi High Court chief justice asking him to constitute a court and identify a judge for this purpose, reports PTI.
"The matter is under consideration," additional solicitor general Indira Jaisingh told the bench, which wanted to know about the progress of investigation in the case.
Senior advocate KK Venugopal, representing the CBI, apprised the judges about the progress by the CBI and placed the probe status report in a sealed cover before the court. "Sixty-three persons including promoters and CEOs of 10 companies have come under the scanner of the CBI in its probe into the 2G spectrum scam," Mr Venugopal said.
The judges today expressed satisfaction over the progress of the probe. They also asked both the CBI and the Enforcement Directorate to submit their reports on the investigation next by 10th March and posted the matter for further hearing on 15th March.
In the meanwhile, senior advocate Harish Salve, appearing for the Tata group of companies, pleaded for in-camera proceedings.
Earlier, on 10th February, while hearing a plea by the Centre for Public Interest Litigation (CPIL) for a probe into the 2G case, the SC had asked the CBI to widen the ambit of its probe and to cover high-flying corporate leaders, without getting influenced by their status. While giving the CBI a free hand to probe the case, the court had also asked the government to set up a special court exclusively to try the spectrum scam accused.
"We have a large number of persons who think themselves to be the law. The law must catch them. It should be done with greater expedition. Merely that they are on the Forbes list or they are millionaires does not make any difference," the bench had remarked after perusing the CBI's probe status report in which names of big corporate houses and their officials had been mentioned.
But counsel Prashant Bhushan, appearing for the CPIL, had pointed out to the court that the agencies had not questioned the heads of several companies, including those of Swan Technology, which was controlled by Anil Ambani's Reliance Group, when the spectrum was allocated. At this, the bench had said, "Top authorities of companies were not questioned. It is surprising that the managing directors were not summoned."
Seeking to widen the ambit of CBI's probe, the court said the agency's freedom to investigate the matter should not be curtailed in any way and it asked the agency to go beyond the role of the four persons, among them former telecom minister A Raja, who were already arrested in the case.
"This investigation has led to a prima-facie conclusion about the culpability of four persons. What about the beneficiaries. They are part of a larger conspiracy. We want to know about them. You (CBI) take instructions and tell us what action you are planning to take," the judges had told the CBI.

Making Nonprofit Fundraisers More Fun
Campaign One (large fundraiser): French Bulldog socks where the proceeds benefit French Bulldog Rescue Network (FBRN).
- FBRN posted our campaign on their Facebook Page and sold 170 pairs of socks in 48 hours!
- It was reshared over 100 times and received over 1,200 likes! People were going crazy in the comments over these socks. Someone even said: "we should replace all the socks we have now with these."
- We initially just shipped to the USA but had so much Canadian demand we opened up shipping to Canada.
Campaign two: Panda socks benefiting Pandas International Nonprofit
- After Pandas International posted on their Facebook page we received a total of 52 orders! What makes this interesting is Pandas International has about 5,600 facebook likes, which is 5% of how many French Bulldog Rescue Network has (they have over 111K!), but this campaign still was successful and people loved it all over the internet.
We will be launching a lot more campaigns in the near future. If you want to get involved, send us an email!

Full house in Rochester expected for Abby Wambach's game
ROCHESTER, N.Y. (AP) Abby Wambach is coming home to an anticipated full house in Rochester in the U.S. women's soccer star's first game since a World Cup final loss to Japan last weekend.
The Sahlen's Stadium ticket office reported Tuesday morning that there are about 100 tickets left for the Women's Professional Soccer league game Wednesday night between Wambach's magicJack and the Western New York Flash. The downtown Rochester stadium's capacity is 13,500, though temporary bleachers have been added that would boost the total to about 15,000.
The draw has the potential to be record-setting in the WPS' three-year history. The league's attendance record stands at 14,832, set in the WPS' first game in 2009 at Los Angeles. Second on the list is a crowd of 8,076 that turned out in Rochester in May to watch Wambach make her first trip home this season in a 3-0 loss to the expansion Flash, who are led by Brazilian star Marta.
The 31-year-old Wambach is from suburban Pittsford. The first 1,000 fans will receive Wambach bobbleheads.
Also on hand for the game will be U.S. teammates Alex Morgan, who plays for the Flash, and magicJack's Megan Rapinoe.
The owner of south Florida-based magicJack, Dan Borislow, told the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle he expects Wambach to be tired, but will want to play.
Wambach led the U.S. with four goals in Germany, upping her World Cup career total to 13 which puts her third on the all-time scoring list.
She's had a busy schedule since returning to the U.S. on Monday. Joined by her U.S. teammates, Wambach was interviewed on ABC News "Good Morning America" on Tuesday. Later in the day, she and goalie Hope Solo were scheduled to appear on the "Late Show With David Letterman."
On Wednesday afternoon, Wambach, Morgan and Rapinoe are scheduled to attend what's billed as "a homecoming rally" at a mall outside of Rochester.

In 2000, Corpus Christi came within one vote of out-sourcing water and wastewater operations. The hang-up? Even with the promise of $200 million in savings over 20 years, council members couldn't agree on whether constituents would be better served by private contractors or public employees. So they ordered the city manager to operate the utilities "more like a business."
The implication was clear: Become competitive or be contracted out.
The first step was establishing a computerized work-order system. Although utility employees could access the city's geographical information system (GIS), they couldn't use it to input or spatially analyze customer calls and work performed. Instead, they recorded service requests by hand on index cards, then input them into an Access database.
Service levels were anyone's guess because standards hadn't been well-defined and weren't being accurately monitored.
Most work was performed in direct response to citizen calls, breakdowns, and malfunctions, which meant minimal preventive maintenance and no analysis of work backlogs.
To remedy this crises-management style of service, the utilities selected IBM's Maximo asset management solution to interface with the city's GIS and record and manage work. Technology and business-management consultant EMA Inc. installed the system and provided technical support.
The software was purchased in 2002 and implemented incrementally, one department at a time, in six-month intervals over two years.
With an automated work-order system in place, the next step was to establish a call center. This happened in 2003.
Call-center operators use the system to record resident service requests, each of which generates a computerized work order. Because the software interfaces with GIS, they can see pending work while they're on the phone with customers and avoid creating duplicate work orders. They also can see the history of all work performed at a specific location, no matter which department did the work.
Customers are considered critical "assets" to manage, just like pumps and motors, and are identified by a unique location code assigned to the utilities' "service premise." To create the unique location codes, EMA built upon codes already established in the city's utility billing system; assets such as mains, valves, and manholes were already in the GIS.
All of this data is used to rate customer service.
The wastewater department, for example, defines "good" service as:
Timely response to sewer-backup calls, measured by the time between when the call is received, when the crew arrives, and when work is completed. The target start time, for example, is four hours from when the customer calls, and target completion time is six hours from the call.
Reliable (continuous) service, which is measured by calculating the percentage of customers experiencing no service interruptions during a defined time period.
The data can also be used to create a baseline against which a department can quantify improvements over time.
For instance, the wastewater department determined that 90% of customers received continuous service during a one-year period. That percentage now serves as a baseline as the department works to establish a target percentage.
Today, the utilities plan work more systematically instead of reacting to the crisis of the hour.
Employees routinely produce maps that illustrate wastewater-backup calls, complaints of water quality, or water main breaks by geographical area. The maps pinpoint problem locations and are used to develop capital improvement and repair strategies. Exercising water valves, flushing "dead-end" water mains, and cleaning out problematic mains before they clog and interrupt service can be done in those problem locations.
The system was so successful that by 2005 all utility and public works functions — gas, traffic engineering, airport, park operations, facility maintenance, solid waste services, and street services — had installed the software as well. Information is now shared and directly accessible to any department.
The system enabled the utilities and public works department to comply with a 2006 city initiative to evaluate performance based upon the balanced scorecard model of measuring success according to four perspectives: customer, financial, process, and sustainability/learning and growth. The method translates business strategies and performance standards, such as the city's mission of "serving the customer," into specific, measurable objectives like timely service request resolution times.
In other words, it measures how well operational activities will satisfy the organization's objectives. Managers identify goals within each perspective that help achieve the department's overall mission.
For example, to meet a mission that includes effective water supply management and customer satisfaction, Corpus Christi Water Department goals include two-hour response time to water complaints, one-hour response to main breaks, four-day response to meter leaks, and 24-hour completion of main break repairs.
EMA developed an "online dashboard" for the city that presents balanced scorecard goals, objectives, metrics, and targets on a Web page. Much like an automobile dashboard, the interface pulls data from enterprise systems such as IBM's Maximo and displays the metrics so users can gauge progress. Users view data by year, quarter, month, week, or day at the enterprise or department/business unit level. Drill-down functionality and charting provide greater detail, pulling response times, cost of service, and other essential performance metrics from core systems to present information on a Web page external to source applications.
Initiating this type of continuous assessment would have been nearly impossible without an automated work-order system because much of the data needed to measure performance is drawn directly from the system. At the same time, the methodology helps ensure the software system's success.
Each department's performance targets and results are posted online for any city employee with a password to view. This has spurred managers to pay closer attention to the data in the system. Accuracy has improved, making the system even more useful.
Together, these tools have enabled the utilities to transform from operations that couldn't even define what "good" levels of service meant to proactive agencies that can track, evaluate, and improve upon services to set standards of excellence.
— Klepper is administrative superintendent for the city of Corpus Christi Water Utilities.
Balancing act
Maintaining equilibrium between long-term goals and day-to-day practices.
It's easy to provide great service if price isn't an issue. Conversely, it's easy to keep costs down if you don't care about providing good service. The hard part is satisfying both goals simultaneously.
That's what the water and waste-water utilities of Corpus Christi, Texas, have been working on since 2000, using a tool outlined in the 1996 book The Balanced Scorecard by Robert Kaplan and David Norton. The strategic planning and management method is helping them identify and examine the relationship between the activities necessary to meet their overall vision.
The methodology's underlying principle is that because organizations can't directly influence financial outcomes, financial measures alone shouldn't be used to evaluate effectiveness. Areas where direct management intervention is possible should also be identified and measured.
The utilities, for example, are measuring customer call response and service completion times. Following the methodology, managers use "if-then," or cause-and-effect, thinking to identify and adjust measures that will continuously improve service.
In wastewater collection, the department considered the factors that impact service and the elements over which managers have some control: "We will achieve timely customer response if enough proficient crews are available to respond to sewer-backup calls at the right time, and if adequate equipment is available, and if calls are promptly dispatched."
Similarly, "We will increase the reliability of service provided if repairs are first focused on areas with the most frequent problems and if the problem lines are routinely cleaned."
All of the "if" statements suggest possible performance indicators that help better manage the wastewater collection system.

A systematic approach
Finding problematic infrastructure areas before they fail.
Just seven years ago, Corpus Christi, Texas' wastewater staff logged service requests by hand and addressed problems as they occurred. With no formal way to track service calls, it was nearly impossible to pinpoint problematic infrastructure before failures occurred. Since installing an asset management solution, all that users need is the computer-generated work-order history.

In the 10 years Sir Richard Greenbury ran M&S in the 1990s, it made cumulative profits of £9bn. Today, after a short-lived recovery, it is still well short of what he made in his worst and final year.
The beginning of the end came with a bungled succession. However correct it might have seemed at the time, Peter Salsbury was the wrong man to follow Greenbury. Experienced and successful retailers say brands need evolution, not revolution, but Salsbury wanted to make his mark. It was too much, too fast; too much change for the sake of change.
Staff were demoralised, suppliers isolated and customers confused, and it helped make a disaster out of a setback. The brand no longer delivered what any of these expected of it and they could not understand what they were getting instead.
At the same time, the boardroom split and the senior ranks were purged or quit of their own volition. The 'lifers' who were forced out were the very people who instinctively understood M&S and could have sorted it out. But the search for new brooms means that since they quit there has been no one at the top who instinctively understood what to do. So the company embarked on a series of disastrous changes that further alienated its traditional customers but failed to attract new ones.
Luc Vandevelde, the chairman, is now departing under a cloud but the City bears a lot of responsibility for falling in love with him and the short-term fixes he prescribed. Yet his achievements never added up to much.
He sold freeholds — the crown jewels — to raise £2bn of cash to return to shareholders for no reason other than that was what the City wanted. He pulled out of Europe and the Far East when most people felt the short-term difficulties were worth persevering with to tap in to the long-term potential of these areas. He fell out with suppliers. He took too long to get rid of Salsbury, and his own appointments have been as uninspired as his strategic moves.
So it is no real surprise the business is in trouble. Rather, it is a tribute to its resilience that it is still there despite six years of misdirection interspersed with increasingly desperate rounds of butchery.
Defenders of current chief executive Roger Holmes say it is not his fault — the business was in freefall when he arrived and he has not only stopped the decline but more than doubled profits since the low.
They say, too, that there is no return to the good old days because the world has changed too much. Tesco and Asda out of town and chains like Zara and Next on the High Street have brought new meaning to the word competition.
Most of all, the buying power is in the hands of the young, and they have never been M&S core customers. This view holds that Holmes had no choice but to re-invent the business, however painful a process that might be.
Maybe that is right. But if it is, the alarming thing for customers, staff and shareholders is that there will be more shocks, bumps and disappointments before the group can be said truly to have found its feet again.
With-profit pain
LEADERS of the nation's big insurance companies, up before the Treasury Select Committee of MPs again today, have used their time since the first grilling to try to meet the most obvious criticisms directed at them.
They now have procedures in place for all holders of mortgage endowment insurance to be told clearly where they stand, what they should do and how they should seek redress if that is what they are entitled to.
The chances are that will take the sting out of some of the criticisms and might leave time for an examination of a much more serious issue.
Tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of with-profit policies are in companies or funds closed for new business, or in funds no longer actively promoted. However, as each policy is unique to the specific life assured, they cannot be consolidated unless every minor change is agreed by every life assured — which for all practical purposes is impossible.
That means legacy computer systems are being kept alive to handle the administration long after their natural lives and there is little scope for efficiencies and cost saving. So the industry has potentially a massive back book of policies it has to see through to completion with no new money coming in to help defray costs.
As policyholders dwindle in number, the relative burden on those left becomes heavier, and the return on the policies diminishes.
When the fuss over endowment mortgages is long forgotten, this could emerge as the real long-term problem for the industry.Reuse content

What kind of grafts or techniques can rebuild alar domes in revision rhinoplasty? (Photos)
I had a revision rhinoplasty over 4 months ago. My tip is far too narrow now and I want to get some of the bulbousness back to my alar domes. What kind of grafts or techniques can rebuild alar domes in revision rhinoplasty?
Doctor Answers 1
4 months after a cosmetic rhinoplasty is too early to decide on a revisionary surgery
Dear hanginthere,
Thank you for your question and attachments. From both your post-op photo and your history I would highly recommend that you allow the sufficient time to soften and fully heal the area before planning a secondary revisionary procedure.

The Federal Aviation Administration said the changes would not affect aircraft safety but would give the cash-strapped airline industry, which supports the changes, breathing room to better coordinate its maintenance and inspection schedules.
In a regulatory filing, the FAA said it will permit carriers four additional years, until 2008, to develop programs for inspecting and conducting stepped up maintenance on fuel tank systems.
"The FAA recognizes that operators will have difficulty meeting their obligations before the Dec. 6, 2004, compliance date," according to the regulatory notice signed by FAA Administrator Marion Blakey.
The agency said the unprecedented regulation, issued in 2001, was not specific enough. Regulators also said there was confusion about how to integrate airline maintenance schedules with the new inspection standards.
The rule stemmed from the mid-air destruction of TWA Flight 800 in 1996 off New York that killed 230 passengers and crew and other explosions and fires on the ground that were blamed on fuel tank problems.
Regulators also are considering important changes to a proposed regulation that was widely publicized in 2002 for closer structural inspections of aging jetliners and other commercial planes that seat 30 or more people.
The FAA may extend the compliance deadline from 2007 to 2010 for airlines to formulate more streamlined inspection and maintenance schedules for structural problems on aircraft 14 years and older.
Extending the deadline to inspect planes for fuel tank problems and age-related cracks, in the near term, relieves airlines of additional maintenance requirements that take jets out of service and cost them money.
Other plans under consideration by the FAA to redraw proposals on inspections for aircraft corrosion, wiring and hydraulics problems will save air carriers even more money. The FAA estimates the extended fuel tank deadline and its other proposed changes will save airlines $200 million.
The FAA is satisfied for now that current safety requirements for fuel tank and structural inspections and maintenance are adequate for now.

Agency Costs of Controlling Shareholders' Share Collateral with Taiwan Evidence
Controlling shareholders' share collateral is a new source of the deviation of cash flow rights and control rights leading to minority shareholder expropriation. However, controlling shareholders' share collateral is not forbidden and has not received particular restriction leading to its popularity in the capital markets. Neglecting the potential agency costs resulting from controlling shareholders' share collateral would hurt the interests of creditors and minority shareholders. We need legal regulation on controlling shareholders' share collateral to reinforce corporate governance mechanism to protect the interests of creditors and minority shareholders.

LONDON — The official eighth chapter of the Harry Potter series — Harry Potter and the Cursed Child — starts previewing this week, and J.K. Rowling has taken to social media to issue a spoiler-based plea to fans.
On Monday morning, the author shared a YouTube video of herself addressing fans, asking them to keep the play's secrets so as not to spoil things for others.
Given that back in the day even British intelligence agencies were helping keep the books from being leaked, she's probably right to be worried.
Between the previews, the script's international release on July 31 and the churning spoiler-machine that is the Internet, it's hard to imagine that fans with 2017 tickets will make it to show night without someone giving something away.
Let's face the grim facts, Harry Potter fans: unless you're one of the people lucky enough to have a preview ticket this week, the odds of making it to the show spoiler-free are about as good as the odds of Hedwig making a surprise comeback.
We'd all love it to happen, but it won't.

Between a Hard Place and an Amazing DreamMature
I leaned up from the damp, cushioned moss beneath me and felt slide of silk across my skin as I stretched and stood under swaying vines of leaves. Though I couldn't see much of the leaves it was easy to tell that I was under a willow tree--my favorite kind. The long dark draping vines swaying in the light breeze sent a slight chill up my spin. My hand grazed lightly across the bark of the tree. The quiet snap of a branch above me made me turn my head to the noise to see glowing red eyes, despite the feeling that fear should be the only thought on my mind, I find myself smiling up at the feral eyes. They didn't move they just stayed still, barely blinking.
"You going to just sit there staring at me or are you going to come down and say hello?" I asked.
The eyes moved finally, farther down the branch, and let out a barely audible, silky smooth sounding "Hello."
I laughed shaking my head at the ground.
"I like your laugh," the smooth voice said quietly behind me. I turned to become face to face with the red eyes that were surrounded with black on the inside and outside of the iris.
"Thank-you," I muttered breathlessly as I looked in to the gorgeous face of Ben.
A chilled pale hand cupped under my chin as he brought my face closer to his. When I could feel his breath mixing with my own his hand dropped from my chin and grazed lightly in a line down my arm, making me shiver violently against him. I bit my bottom lip, trying to control my breathing and failing. I didn't really notice that his hand was back under my chin and tipping it up and to the side. His cold lips, that felt so real, pressed under my jaw extremely gentle
"Why can't it be like this now?" he muttered moving his face back to look at me, with a grimace on his face. I didn't know what to say. I couldn't say anything, I felt paralyzed. Bens hand came up again and he pushed some of my hair out of my face, his face looking calm and caring. A sound broke through, not a sound I was used to imagining in my dream.....my alarm clock?
Crap! I almost exclaimed trying to cling on to my dream as it was slipping away. Then unfortunately, I was awake, staring angrily at my bloody evil alarm clock.
"Five more minutes, I couldn't have had five more bloody minutes!" I grunted.
Reluctantly, I rolled out of bed and slammed my fist against the blaring alarm clock. My arms and legs felt heavy and stiff like I hadn't moved for days. As I got ready for school it seemed like I could still feel his touch on my skin. Under my jaw there was a pleasurable tingling. It felt like I could trace the line of where he had run his fingertips over my shivering flesh. It was so....real....so clear, everything was so....perfect.
Please god let him not be with the preps today!! I pleaded desperately in my mind.
Amazingly I found myself trying to perfect my hair, do my make-up flawlessly, and find an outfit that would catch Benjamin's "wondering" attention. It's been two weeks, now after this dream I am not going to stand by anymore. The preps will change him into an asshole like the rest of them if he stays in their group much longer. I took so long getting ready Brandon had to give me a ride to school.
"Any more nightmares lately?" he asked gripping the steering wheel just a little tighter.
I guess he could tell I was on edge and far too eager to get out of the house this morning.
"Nope, actually I had an amazing dream last night." I looked over at him, "Please stop worrying about me, I'm fine."
"Fine," he shot a quick glare at me, "but you better tell me when you're not fine otherwise I'm going to kick your little butt!"
I laughed, "Deal."
All morning I was scanning the cafeteria for him, with no luck. He wasn't even sitting with the pretty, plastic, fake blond preppy girls. Rebecca took her seat beside me after coming back from the library,
"Where's Melody?" she asked, finally noticing her absence.
I looked at her, "Its Friday, she has music composition in the morning."
You could almost see the light bulb go off above her head. "Oh...yeah." she said drawing out the "oh"
Friday classes are always the loudest, and since it is Friday 2 the block order is C-D-B-A, in plain English that means I have Sewing, then P.E., then English, and my last class is Drama. My last two classes are with Ben--wonderful. In sewing I had to work extremely hard not to sew over my finger while working on the dress I was making. P.E was well...P.E, we did a run that I almost fell face first while doing, Melody just shook her head at me. She did however fill me in that there was a guy in music composition that she thought was really nice and "hawt!" and for Melody to say that...well he must be damn gorgeous!
I walked with Melody to the cafeteria for lunch she was still laughing at me over my whole run incident. As we walked from the Theatre to our table she quickly turned to me and said,
"So, that guy I told you about...yeah well he's probably coming to sit here with us."
I sat down at the table between her and Rebecca, "Really?" No idea what it was but, the way she said "that guy" made me think she was kind of hiding who it was from me, something really odd to be getting from Mel since we tell each other everything.
She nodded and pulled a titanium water bottle out of her backpack. "Yeah." she said before taking a huge swig.
I shook my head, "I don't know what you drink to have to go through like 5 of those at school."
She shrugged, "You don't get head aches if you keep hydrated." she shot me a one raised eye brow side glance.
I bit hard down on my lip. "I drink plenty of water thank-you."
"Hey Melody." a voice said coming from behind us. The voice sent shivers up my spin as I turned and saw Ben, a huge grin on his face sitting down next to my best friend, without even a glance my way, he kept smiling at her. Sebastien sat down beside him, a cute shy smile on his face, a smile that was directed towards my "fuck the world" glare.

Tigers land Jose Veras, but Leyland says Benoit 'is my closer'
Joaquin Benoit has pitched so well in the ninth inning that he's going to stay there, even after the Tigers traded for Jose Veras Monday.
The Tigers have been searching the trade market for a closer since the middle of spring training.
Monday, they got one. And he's not going to close.
"[Joaquin] Benoit is my closer, period," manager Jim Leyland said, a few minutes after the deal for Jose Veras was announced.
That should hardly come as a surprise, given that Benoit has been basically perfect in the ninth inning in the month since the Tigers dumped Jose Valverde for the second time. Benoit has a string of 12 consecutive scoreless appearances (including six saves), and he has allowed just eight hits with three walks and 15 strikeouts in that time.
His success, and his willingness to embrace the role (after first resisting it), allowed the Tigers to shift their trade efforts towards acquiring someone who they could work in with Drew Smyly in a setup role. Leyland said he plans to use Veras "from the seventh inning on."
The 32-year-old Veras was having the best season of his career with the Astros, who deserve credit for signing him as a free agent and then building his value so they could get something back for him. Veras went 19 for 22 in save situations with Houston, with a 1.000 WHIP that is the best of his career.
"He's a pro's pro," Astros pitching coach Doug Brocail said. "He throws his off-speed pitches for strikes, and he's not afraid of anything."
Veras gives Leyland some needed experience, and also another option to close if Benoit falters, gets hurt or simply needs a day off. Leyland has yet to ask Benoit to pitch on three straight days this season, and has done it just three times (including once in the postseason) in Benoit's 2½ seasons with the Tigers.
Even so, the Tigers have to be thrilled that Benoit has been willing and able to handle the ninth inning, because finding a true reliable closer on this market was proving next to impossible.
The Tigers, according to sources, are still open to adding another reliever before the 4 p.m. Wednesday deadline for non-waiver trades. They've had extensive talks with the Padres about Luke Gregerson, but have so far found the price to be prohibitive.
Danry Vasquez, the 19-year-old Class A outfielder who went to the Astros in the Veras deal, had also been sought by other teams talking trade with the Tigers this month.

Mistakes are learning moments, but screwing up may also give you a boost of another kind: it can make people like you more. The Pratfall Effect is the tendency for a competent person's likeability to increase after they make a mistake. This effect probably occurs because competent people who never trip up are perceived as less relatable, and thus likeable. Once that seemingly perfect person makes a mistake, they're suddenly more appealing.
This effect can work in the opposite way as well. If someone who is incompetent makes a mistake, the Pratfall Effect says that person's likeability decreases. This is probably because they move even further away from the competence of the general public after a screw up. Learn more about the Pratfall Effect in the video below.

Figures from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) revealed that the Consumer Prices Index (CPI) - the official measure of inflation - eased by less than economists were predicting, to 2.4% last month from 2.5% in May.
The ONS data also showed that core CPI inflation, which strips outs food, alcoholic drinks and tobacco, rose to 2%, its highest level for more than a decade. Rates could now hit 6% within a few months as the Bank of England strives to bring CPI back down to its 2% target, said economists.
Malcolm Barr, economist at JP Morgan, forecasts a rise to 6% in September, but added an increase as soon as next month cannot be ruled out. "News that growth is slowing is going to have to arrive quickly if it is to talk the Bank's Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) out of another move in the near term," he said.
The inflation data sent shockwaves through the London market, with the Ftse 100 Index more than 60 points into the red as investors anticipated a further interest rate rise. The pound also continued to strengthen - above 2.04 dollars at a fresh 26-year high - on the inflation news and potential impact on rates.
Further clues on the possible direction of the base rate will be offered on Wednesday, when the Bank publishes minutes of the MPC's July meeting, which saw rates go up by a quarter point to 5.75%.
Tuesday's figures showed that the recent spate of interest rate increases have edged the headline rate of inflation back up, to 4.4% last month, from 4.3% in May. The Retail Prices Index (RPI), which is often seen as a more representative measure of inflation as it includes the cost of mortgage interest payments, rose as lenders passed on May's quarter-point rise in interest rates.
Rising oil prices have also offset cuts in the cost of gas and electricity, which had been expected to see the CPI fall as low as 2.3% in June. Oil is rising fast above the 75 US dollars a barrel mark, near to the all-time record high of 78.65 US dollars seen last August, which is putting pressure on prices at the petrol pumps. The ONS said petrol rose by around 1.2p a litre in June, compared with a fall of 0.9p a litre in the same month last year.
Experts are forecasting CPI to continue easing back towards the Bank's target after hitting its highest level since records began in March. But soaring oil costs pose a threat to inflation, with food prices also a cause for concern as the wet weather hits crops.
Howard Archer, chief economist at Global Insight, said: "I still think the trend will be down, but the retreat in prices might be slower than originally expected."Reuse content
