In Aristotle: no comparable subsumption relation.

Sikorsky Aircraft is a subsidiary of United Technologies Corp. (NYSE: UTX). (Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20060403/SIKORSKYLOGO ) Zhuhai, a fully-owned subsidiary of China Southern Airlines Ltd., is a leading provider of offshore helicopter service in China, serving both Chinese and Western oil companies in their ever-expanding oil operations in the South China Sea. The company today operates only Sikorsky helicopters. When Zhuhai takes deliveries of the new S-92 helicopters, the company will operate nine total S-92 aircraft in addition to 12 Sikorsky S-76 ® helicopters. The latest S-92 helicopter purchase was announced in June and celebrated today at the China Helicopter Exposition. "Zhuhai is our largest commercial fleet operator in Asia and one of the region's major operators. We are proud to have them as a valued customer and grateful for their trust and loyalty to our products for the past 29 years," said Ed Beyer, Vice President of Sikorsky Global Helicopters, the commercial aircraft company of Sikorsky Aircraft. "Zhuhai Helicopters and Sikorsky have been working together for many years. This latest contract for four additional S-92 helicopters is an indication of the tremendous growth that has occurred at our company. With the expanding offshore operations in the South China Sea, we expect our fleet and our company to grow with it," said Mr. Rong Weiguo, President, Zhuhai Helicopter Company. The multi-mission S-92 helicopter incorporates numerous safety features, including a flaw-tolerant design. The aircraft was certified to FAA/EASA harmonized Part 29 requirements, as amended through Amendment 47, and remains the only aircraft certified to this rigorous airworthiness standard without exception or waiver.

Wood was scratched! Storage compartment was damaged! Not sure if someone had already returned this and it has been resold! This is just sad! I bought this as a bday present for my boyfriend and I was completely embarrassed!
Overall gun case is Very Nice! However, it did come with a couple of dings in it but nothing major.i think these probably were made in shipping. Lable states it was made in Vietnam. Protective packaging could be better. Assembly instructions I felt were very good and easy to understand. Cabinet seems to be well made and for this particular cabinet color matches that in website photo. Cabinet weighs approximately 100 lbs. empty and is a little top heavy. You will need to secure to a structure keep it from tipping over with door open. It comes with one plastic tie strap which allows you to anchor it from cabinet to wall. You will need help aligning door onto the hinges. The bottom is one door that opens and locks but looking at it from the front it looks like two drawers. They send two tools with it that you will need but you will also need a #2 Phillips screwdriver and a tool to tighten the nut on the lock assembly. Overall I am very pleased with the cabinet and believe it is a nice addition to the room it sits in.
This is a very nice gun cabinet. my only problem was that it got very damaged during delivery, but the company was very helpful in replacing the damaged parts. It has the look of a very expensive cabinet at a great price, if you have the patience to wait for replacement parts.
this is a excellent gun case for the money.
it was easy to assemble and looks expensive.
the 2 keys locks with 4 keys are very sturdy
no worries if u have young childen trying to open.
it is well packed so even if box comes looking like it went though a war it is well protected with styraphome inside. there are even leveling feet screw adjustable on bottom of cabinet so u can level case if your floor unlevel. The wood is stained a nice walnut color. You will be very satisfied with this cabinet for the money you spent on a gun case.
Overall the cabinet met our needs, however the color was not what we expected. In the photos online it looked to be a medium-dark brown stain, but actually it is an ugly orange stain. It was fairly easy to assemble with two people, however pretty much the only thing holding it together are dowel pins and we are uncertain as to how well it will hold up during a move. Also, the front door is really heavy and we had to anchor the cabinet to the wall so that it wouldn't fall over.
looks nice but they ship fedex from florida. bought 2 in nov for xmas presents one was for a neighbor.his was fine.i had puppies so i waited 5 months to open it. i did not want them chewing on it.should have opened it when it arrived. had 3 parts broken to bad to fix. it seems to be 2 late to get replace parts. it is now really expensive firewood. check it when it arrives.
Well packaged so there was no problem with dents, etc. Fairly easy to assemble but need two people for a few of the pieces (one to hold and one to secure with screws, etc.) The picture of the unit indicates the finish is fairly dark but it is really a golden oak color.
Fit is excellent and once put together it is a solid piece. It is top heavy with the lower drawers open but they include a strap to secure the top to a wall to prevent the unit from tipping over. The unit is a good buy if you are not looking for a high quality display case. It is basically a veneer over a fiberboard type material.
A really nice cabinet you get what you pay for but it is pretty nice looking one part was damaged but the company and shipping us the new piece otherwise we really like it
there were pieces of this product that were VERY damaged when we received it. i do not believe it was due to shipping because of the way it was packed and where the damage was (i.e. a GIANT hole through one of the boards that goes in back of the cabinet). VERY disappointed. not sure I will purchase online again. disputes had to be taken up with the company and they said the would replace the part...still waiting for the replacement from the company.
There aren't really two drawers, but faux drawers, which is probably better anyway since most firearm stuff is heavy and would just break the drawers. Nice cabinet, nice finish. Asssembly is fairly easy though you might need a little help holding the door up, which is heavy.
Assembly was fairly straight forward. Note you will need a second set of hands when it comes to mounting the top and bottom doors, so be sure and have some help available.
On my unit the the front frame board on the right side panel of the main cabinet had a big crack in it. Luckily I was able to repair it with glue, clamps, and touch up stain. Had I not been able to take care of it myself I would have been looking at a return, as it was it was just a hassle.
Despite this flaw I still give the product 4 stars as overall it looks good finished and has made a nice display of my favorite guns.
We were very happy with this gun cabinet. A great buy at an incredible price. The drawer is a drop down rather than a pull out, which surprised us at first, but it actually works a lot better, you can fit bigger, bulkier accessories in it better than if it was a standard drawer.
Huge chips all over the door
This is a solid product. If we could change one thing it would be that there were no pre-drilled holes for the doors to attach. It took some time to measure and create holes to attach the doors. Otherwise, it's a nice cabinet and it serves the purpose.
beautiful, easy to assemble. be sure to secure it to the wall with kit provided, its top heavy.
Difficult to put together, has quite a few gouges in the wood. Had to redrill several holes. Next time I go to a furniture or gun store.
Gun case was a very good value compared to others found.
Had to call company for wood backing missing from drawer unit.
I read the description and the specifications, the description states drawers when in fact when it arrived, they are false drawer facings and a fold down cabinet door. I was expecting drawers. this needs to be addressed and changed on the website. Walmart, you need to know what you are selling instead of writing descriptions based only upon a picture.
Plus when it arrived it was left in the rain, and an elderly lady had to push it in the garage.
This product did not fix together well and when the door to the cabinet was opened it would fall forward. It is now in the garage waiting a trip to the dump.

This is a message to all brony/pony haters.
I'm noticing a lot of brony hate around, which is predictable. Every fandom that gets mega-popular will have the self-proclaimed 'rebels' who decide to hate the fandom AND the fan base based on a just few unsavory fans.
This narrative is a means of explaining a few things that many brony haters may have not realized, or overlooked. It is NOT a device to 'convert' those who don't like My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. It is NOT to put down pony haters, or people who dislike bronies. Not every person can like every fandom. We are all entitled to our own likes and dislikes, it's what makes us human. This is merely an explanation of why and how I became a brony, and why it's terribly ignorant to hate a fandom because of a portion of fans. But first of all...
I saw someone the other day proclaiming that bronies are going to 'ruin the show' for children in the future, when those children grow up and 'realize that thei

Eminem must have been a little bored this week, but we don't mind, he got down to doing something pretty interesting.
The rap legend took to long-serving lyric website Rap.Genius and decided to annotate a sh*t load of his own songs and also shared his thoughts on the modern rap game.
The now 42-year-old (yep, 42) has had a pretty good few years following his long time away from the game with various life issues, and now he's dropping knowledge for the sake of it.
I believe that anybody who competitively raps—like Drake and Kendrick and Jay Z—raps to be the best rapper. People diss each other, but it's more in the vein of 'How can I kill you with record sales? Or with a flow? How can I be better than you at making records, at punch lines, metaphors, wordplay, syllables?

How to Be a Caregiver Without Losing Your Career
If you are currently transitioning from a full-time career to a full-time career and caregiving, you know how challenging it can be. Finding the right balance can seem near impossible, which leads to overwhelming levels of stress and concern. Family is priority but what about your career?
The number of unpaid caregivers in Canada continues to rise, as more and more family members require care. As a caregiver, you know that your duties are a full-time role in itself. Although caregiving is time-consuming and mentally draining, more than 70 per cent of American caregivers also have another job.
It's inevitable that one of these roles will be spread thin. If not, you will be spreading yourself thin, increasing your risk of burnout. If you are currently working a job while caregiving, you're not alone. There are strategies you can take to improve your current workload, while aiding your overall health.
Finding the Right Balance Between Your Career and Caregiving
As mentioned, a family member in need is always going to be priority in terms of your time and resources. We want the people close to us well, which is why we're willing to do whatever it takes to see them comfortable and stable. With that being said, completely leaving your career could significantly hinder various aspects of your life.
The most obvious area is finances. Not only will your income significantly decrease, but you will significantly impact your retirement. Having to leave your career at the age of 50 can have dramatic effects on your own personal future and well-being.
The most successful transitions are experienced when caregivers work within a career that is highly flexible. For those who own their own business, freelance, or any other position which offer a flexible schedule, can most certainly adjust more easily. Unfortunately, this is not the case for everyone.
For those who are struggling, what do you do? Before you make any major decisions, it's important to weigh your options carefully. Seek opportunities that offer the greatest levels of support and flexibility. In a perfect world you could balance both, but as many are finding out, one role's duties are not always met.
Tips to Maintain a Career and Your Caregiving Responsibilities
The choices you make now, can drastically influence your future. You CAN integrate both roles, you just need to plan effectively. Here are some tips so that you can properly care for your loved one, while maintaining an ideal income.
Understand What You Can Expect
Each and every situation is unique, so you need to understand what your personal circumstance will require of you. Preparation is key, as it will help you avoid chaos and potential burnout. Begin by educating yourself on your loved one's condition.
If they have early onset Alzheimer's, understand what that means and how the disease will progress. This increased knowledge will help you create a more thorough plan. What will be required of you short-term? What about long-term? Based on these requirements, you can then plan for career opportunities.
Proper scheduling will also make a substantial difference. What is your current schedule like? Planning ahead can make all the difference. There will of course be unexpected meetings or doctor's appointments but there will always be tasks in which you can plan in advance.
Don't Isolate Yourself
You would be amazed how support can positively impact your personal and professional life. Personal support tends to be easier to come by, as family and friends tend to have your best interests in mind. If you're feeling overwhelmed, reach out to a loved one.
Perhaps they could help you with some of your ongoing tasks. However, their emotional support is sometimes all you need. When it comes to professional support, sit down with your boss sooner than later. Explain your situation, so that your employer is fully aware of your current situation.
Focus on the positives, so that your employer knows you're still serious about your position. Try to work out new arrangements, discussing ways that you can accommodate work. Perhaps you need to take your mom to a dialysis appointment twice a week. If there's wifi on site, arrange for work you can do outside of the office during those dialysis hours.
Put yourself out there in terms of professional support. If your employer is not very responsive, then you may need to think of new opportunities and options. Either you explore caregiving options such as in-home care or adult daycare; or you explore new employment opportunities which allow you to focus on caregiving.
Each situation is unique, so you need to do what's best for you and your family. Stay organized and do not forget to take time for yourself. If you need further support, here are some great tips from the Canadian Caregiver Coalition.MORE ON HUFFPOST:
Talking with other people who face the same daily challenges can help caregivers manage stress. Specific types of support groups can vary on a community-by-community basis; check out this Caregiver.com guide to find the right program for you.
Caregivers have their hands full and may not have the time to meet with an in-person support group. In that case, an online support group can be a great alternative.
Support groups not your thing? You can see what other people are saying about caregiving by just checking out a simple message board, such as this one sponsored by AARP..
You may need to attend an event or simply seek a few hours for some much-needed rest. Eldercare.net offers a Search For Respite Tool or Eldercare Locator where you can find professional help. Also check out this guide from caring.com for more respite-care ideas.
Does your loved one need transportation to go buy food or go shopping? There are numerous van and shuttle services specifically for seniors. Contact your local Area Agency On Aging for one near you.
Don't have time to shop and cook? Consider a service that will deliver gourmet meals to your home, no matter where you live. For low-income seniors in need, AssistGuide Information Services offers a directory of food services available.
During the 2009 economic downturn, 1 in 5 family caregivers said their finances were so strained that they were forced to move into the same home with their aging loved ones to reduce expenses, according to a survey by caregiving.org. Some 47 percent of working caregivers indicate that an increase in caregiving expenses caused them to use up all or most of their savings. The Many Strong Support Network has a fundraising tool which allows other people to anonymously donate funds to people who are under financial strain.
If ever you have a question about resources, or need support at a moment's notice, AARP's caregiving support line is available at 1-877-333-5885, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Senior care advisors for Care.com, also provide free counseling for caregivers, and help them map out the best course of care for their loved ones.
Organized caregiver co-ops can provide an affordable way to coordinate care for your loved ones. Check with local community centers or this Adult Day Care Directory to see if someone in your area has already started one.
Care.com's Senior Care Directory can set you up with a housekeeper, errand runner, pet sitter, or whatever you need to make the caregiving experience a little more manageable.
According to author of "The Medical Day Planner", Tory Zellick, hospital social workers are a great resource for all caregivers. "[Hospital social workers] are always armed with information for your community," said Zellick.
Websites like Lotsahelpinghands have caregiving communities that connect volunteers with caregivers in need of support or help.
Family gatherings offer a great opportunity to discuss the future of loved one you care for, says Dr. Bruce Chernof, president and CEO of The SCAN Foundation. The group offers a guide -- "10 Conversations To Plan For Aging With Dignity And Independence" -- to lay the groundwork for these critical discussions.

Chennai to Taj Mahal
Report Abuse
Hi, alioops!
Four days is not much to traverse a continent -- frankly, if I were she, I wouldn't be in it; I'd choose something equally as wonderful closer at hand. Whichever way she gets to the Taj Mahal, she's going to spend a much longer time in waiting rooms and looking at the insides of travelling conveyances than she is looking at the Taj.
However, if the Taj it must be, then Air Deccan is beckoning. They have amazingly-cheap daily flights from Chennai to Mumbai, and also from Mumbai to Delhi. You can book these on-line at their website.
As for the last leg of the journey, well, there is no shortage of trains, buses, or private cars plying the Delhi-Agra route... the express trains take around three hours.
And then, does she have to return to Chennai, or can she re-board the cruise at another port? The latter, I hope! Even though the flight times are pretty short -- a couple of hours for each, maximum -- Air Deccan may only have one flight a day, and the stopover time in Mumbai might be considerable. Can any building be worth it? Surely someone more experienced than I can chime in with some great places to see which are not TOO far from Chennai -- what about Hampi, for example?

Hi, again, alioops!
Well, things aren't quite as black as I painted them. Air Deccan now fly direct from Chennai to Delhi, which should make things much simpler. Their website is http://airdeccan.net/airdeccan/home.asp
Hope you find a time and a price that is suitable!

With four days, as noted above, the best way would be to fly. In addition to Air Deaccan, she could also fly on Indian Airlines (http://indian-airlines.nic.in) the national carrier. The flight takes about 4.5 hours. I think the fare would be about $350 round trip, but the site is hard to use for pricing. She might want to confirm prices herself using an Indian travel agent.
(No airlines fly non-stop to Agra from Chennai. To cut costs, she could fly to/from Delhi and then go by train to Agra from Delhi. Train takes about 3-4 hours and second class would be quite cheap, I want to say less than $25 round trip, but this could be off. )
A train would be much cheaper but would take longer and she may have to depart or arrive in the middle of the night. The fastest train from Chennai is the Tamil Nadu Express which gets to Agra in about 6 hours if I am reading the schedule correctly. There are slower trains as well. Second class fare would be about $120 round trip. Take a look at www.indianrail.gov.in. for train timetables. The website is very hard to use, IMO, so again an Indian travel agent (hopefully one on board the ship) would be helpful.
If she decides against Agra, a great trip from Chennai would be to hire a car and driver and go down the east coast from Chennai down to Pondicherry. Great temples, some colonial bits (like catholic churches) and sights along the way, very much off the beaten tourist path. If she did this with a group of friends, they could split the car costs and so this could be done cheaply assuming they stay in hostels, etc. (And if you can't when you are young, when can you??!!!)

Thank you Alan and Cicerone for your valuable suggestions!

DEF a train direct from Chennai to Agra. If u take into account advance check in at airports and the fact that all Ind airports are somewhat outside the city center u will spend a lot of time in transit. Taking a train from Delhi after a Chennai-Delhi flight means transferring from the airport to the train station which is qute a distance.
Report Abuse
Agra is over 1200 miles from Chennai.
Chennai to Agra is 30 hours by train (not 6 hours)
Report Abuse
Yep, "day 2" of the train schedule is a very easy mistake to make. I did it myself in March! I did think it must be a very fast train (think Japanese Shinkansen)! Did not see any in India!
alliioops-if there is a possibility your daughter may not return to India in the near future, then tell her from one gobsmacked Taj Mahal fan, that she should not miss ANY reasonable opportunity to view this amazing building. Air Deccan can be unreliable so she must allow a few hours for plane delays. Do not cut connections TOO fine. If she can fit it in, I'd say to her "do not miss the Taj". It's like nothing else in this world, imho.

Navigating the Journey to Streamlined S&OP: Initiative, Tools, and the Value of Decision Support
published January 4, 2013
Since the term S&OP was first coined in the 1980s, sales and operation planning has become an important mission for companies striving to align forecasting, production, inventory management, and other organizational functions for optimal results.
While S&OP sounds straightforward in theory (after all, how difficult can it be to get all departments on the same page and working toward the same goals?), a properly implemented strategy is anything but easy to attain. In his work with manufacturers, Aberdeen Group vice president and principal analyst Bryan Ball emphasizes the importance of solid, streamlined S&OP for companies of all sizes and across all industries.

Coalition for Government Procurement President Roger Waldron said GSA's next-generation telecom contract could be skewed in favor of large providers.
The General Services Administration's strategy for its next-generation telecommunications services contract could exclude a huge segment of providers and duplicate some federal contract offerings, according to a procurement industry group.
GSA issued a request for information for Enterprise Infrastructure Solutions (EIS) in April; comments are due by May 8.
The RFI is part of GSA's effort to develop a comprehensive framework and acquisition strategy for Network Services 2020, which will become the federal government's strategic sourcing center for network-based and network-enabled services. The agency plans to solicit bids for NS2020 in fiscal 2015.
According to Roger Waldron, president of the Coalition for Government Procurement, the plan sets up small and midsize suppliers to fail. The organization's concerns relate to the scope of services envisioned under the RFI and the designation of mandatory versus optional services, he added.
To be eligible to bid, potential contractors must propose a minimum/mandatory combination of voice and data services, Waldron said. That combination will be easy for large telecom suppliers but could be a big problem for other potential vendors -- such as cloud service providers -- that might not be grounded in traditional telecom offerings.
Companies that primarily provide data center services, network and security equipment, cabling, managed services, service-related labor and call-center services might not be able to bid as effectively for the contract as telecom companies could, Waldron said. "It all boils down to whether the contracting vehicle provides all kinds of services from companies or will rely on three or four large telecommunications providers," he added.
"The minimum/mandatory structure, combined with the optional products/services, will unduly restrict competition," he said.
The proposed rules could block a host of companies that are seeking to provide cloud services to agencies under GSA's Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program, Waldron added.
Furthermore, he said NS2020's proposed structure duplicates "major portions of pre-existing GSA governmentwide contract vehicles, including Alliant and the GSA Schedules."

The appropriators supporting an IT modernization bill are urging a key authorizing committee to vote up the bill and send it to the Senate floor.
The architect of the Managing Government Technology Act is happy with the administration's request for a central IT modernization fund, but he thinks the real action will take place at the agency level.
President Donald Trump's budget proposal identifies almost $150 billion in savings over 10 years by slashing federal employee benefits, but feds and their unions are crying foul.
As expected, the proposed federal budget contains $228 million for a general fund for IT modernization projects.
The Modernizing Government Technology Act passed the House of Representatives on a voice vote, but the Senate outlook is less certain.
The revised IT modernization bill will cost $500 million to implement, according to the Congressional Budget Office.
The GSA is moving aggressively forward with its Federal Strategic Sourcing Initiatives (FSSI) without considering the impact of the U.S. Economy. SBA recognizes that a Cost-Benefit Analysis as a minimum must be performed to evaluate the true NET BENEFITS of this procurement policy. There is much to be learned from the decision of a California Assembly Committee who evaluated the California Strategic Sourcing Initiative (CSSI):
FSSI COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS: If it's good enough for the California to put their Strategic Sourcing Program ON-HOLD for lack of a COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS, WHY NOT GSA !!!
FSSI COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS: If it's good enough for the California State Assembly Committee on Accountability and Administrative Review to issue RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS BEFORE IT ALLOWS STRATEGIC SOURCING IN CALIFORNIA IN THE HEARING ON JUNE 8, 2011, WHY NOT THE GSA: The Hearing was entitled.... A REVIEW OF STRATEGIC SOURCING AND IMPACTS ON SMALL BUSINESS Wednesday, June 8, 2011
I don't see how the GSA Telecom strategy fosters competition. GSA needs to go back to the drawing board on this one...
