Good Heavens, my sister Annie has been chosen as "Fur of the Month" for the Best lil Doghouse in Dogster group. It's quite an honor to be chosen and I'm so happy for her. Mama has been making a bug fuss over it and we are both getting extra treats and even some new clothes. We went shopping the other day to get Annie and me some new Easter clothes. Annie got a new dress and I got a shirt with a vest and tie. I like my new shirt because mama made such a fuss about it. I guess it must make me look really handsome. Don't misunderstand, I'm handsome without a new shirt but it never hurts to dress up for your pawerents.
My poor little fursib Annie got sick today and had to go to the doctors and get a shot. She has bronchitis and has to take some really nasty medication that mama has to give her twice a day. It must be really bad stuff because mama has to hold her down and squirt it down her throat. Poor poor Annie, but at least she has stopped coughing.
It was raining really hard this morning so mama put down some potty paper for us but I was a very bad boy and pooped in the den. Mama was not happy with me and I got a really bad scolding. She said I was a bad dog and I just hate it when she calls me that. I hung my head and ran under the bed where I hid for awhile until she forgot to be mad at me. It's alright now, mama isn't mad any more and I did my pee pees on the potty paper so all is forgiven. Since I'm such a tiny boy mama doesn't make me go out in the rain to do my business but she said she will if I don't do it on the paper next time. I WILL MAMA, I PROMISES.
I just can't hardly wait for this nest weekend. It's EASTER. Annie and I get to hunt Easter eggs with my furcousins Callie, Ellie May and Charlie. The mamas make some hard-boiled eggs and hide them for us furs to find. It's really exciting to see who can chomp the most eggs. Oh Boy, Big Fun! I found 2 last year with mamas help. Mama always helps Annie and me because were so little and the big dogs would take them all if they could. I hope I can find more this time. I really, really like eggs but I usually only get one at a time so getting more is a big treat for me.
I hope all of my furiends have a wonderful Easter and let's not forget what Easter is really about. God Bless all.
Yea! It's getting warm outside and I can play in my yard again. I still have to wear my sweater in the morning but by afternoon Mama takes if off and Annie and I can run and play all we want. Mama left the door open today so we could run in and out by ourselves.
Today was much better than yesterday cause it's not as windy. Yesterday the wind was blowing so hard the weather guy said it was gusting to 50mph. When I went out to potty the darn wind blew me over and I fell on my side. Mama laughed but she came out and got me and carried me over to the side of the house where I was out of wind so I could do my business. You big dog (10+ lbs) have no idea how strong that wind can be. I really love being out in the back yard but I don't like to go out front. I'm afraid I might get lost and couldn't find Mama or Annie ever again. I would never want to lose my Mama.
My first parents were a man and his wife. She thought she wanted a small dog so he bought me for her. They didn't know I would take so much care and attention so they gave me to her aunt but she didn't like me either so she gave me to her son. He took me to collage with him and they were very mean to me and hurt me lots. He didn't want m I was too much trouble, so he gave me to a friends sister then she gave me to her mother. The man didn't like little dogs and kicked me around and fed me hot stuff and made me stay outside. One time he kicked me so hard he broke my hip. I couldn't walk and just kept crying so he put me in the garage and was going to take me out to the country in a few days and shoot me. It was the middle of summer and I had no food or water. I just laid there and waited to die.
My Mama heard about me and went to there house and asked if she could have me. Those people were glad to get rid of me and told Mama to take me. Mama took me straight to my Uncle Marks clinic, he's a vet so he knew what to do to help me. I went to sleep and when I woke up my hip hurt bad and I had stitches in me. I still thought I was dieing so I just laid their and waited. After a few days Mama came and got me, took me home and I met Annie. Mama put me in really soft bed and covered me up so I was nice and warm. She put food and water close to me and told Annie to take care of me. Annie would bring me bites of food and put them right where I could get them without getting up but I was still to scared of this new place. I was just waiting for them to hurt me too. After awhile Annie came over and laid down beside me and started licking me and making soft noises. It was the first time I had felt comfort since I was born and I liked it. After a day and I still wouldn't eat my Mama made me some cream of wheat with chicken broth and put it in my mouth with a syringe. At first I didn't like it, but then it started tasting really good. A few days later I got up and tried to walk. It still hurt but not as bad. Little by little I got better and stronger. Mama has given me lots of love and affection and she promised no one would ever hurt me again. I walk just fine now and I can even run. Annie and I have a wonderful yard to play in, Mama lets me sleep on the bed with her and I even have my own blanket. I'm so glad my Mama saved me, I have the best life a puppy could ever ask for and I know I'm loved.

text: 000 FXUS63 KMQT 220844 AFDMQT Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Marquette MI 444 AM EDT Thu Jun 22 2017 .SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight) Issued at 442 AM EDT THU JUN 22 2017 The upstream shortwave over northern MN and associated lift is supporting showers and isolated t-storms from central and northeast MN into Lake Superior and portions of Upper Mi early this morning. Strong 850 mb warm advection and moisture transport at the nose of 40-50 kt low-level jet and along 850 mb warm front was also supporting strong to severe convection over se MN and central WI in environment of 2000-3000 j/kg MUCAPE and effective shear of 50-60 kts where SPC has highlighted a slight risk for day 1. Latest RAP shows increasing instability into Upper Mi in the next several hours fm 08-13Z mainly over the west and south central portions where MUCAPE values climb to 500-1000 j/kg. Effective deep layer shear also increases to 25-40 kts over these areas which could lead to a few of the developing storms becoming strong to possibly severe through 13-14z. After the initial shortwave moves east of Lake Superior and q-vector divergence spreads in from the west, expect a drier period later this morning into early afternoon. Models then indicate another shortwave riding along stalled out frontal boundary developing more convection into mainly the se half of Upper Mi late this afternoon and evening. Again, RAP fcst MUCAPE values 500-1200 j/kg and effective shear near 50 knots would indicate a risk of possible severe storms into south central Upper Mi late this afternoon and evening mainly effecting Menominee and Delta counties. Shortwave moving east will push frontal boundary east and move any remaining convection east of the fcst area late tonight. Another shortwave approaching from Manitoba/northern Ontario could bring in a few showers into the west late. Expect highs temps today mainly in the 70s under partly to mostly cloudy skies with lows mainly in the 50s tonight. .LONG TERM...(Friday through Wednesday) Issued at 355 AM EDT THU JUN 22 2017 Upper level troughing and resulting cool weather pattern still on track to begin to settle across Upper Great Lakes on Fri. Main sfc low near 1000mb starts day over northern Ontario with lead cold front already east of the forecast area by daybreak on Fri. Weaker front may slide across through the day but deep drying should result in mainly dry conditions. Suppose with pooling of 50-55F dwpnts off northern Lk Michigan and Green Bay and temps into the 70s could see up to 250j/kg of sbcape and potential for isolated showers over the southeast especially if there is any type of additional forcing from shortwave trough working through. With upper level jet axis still overhead into the aftn ahead of upper troughing, could also be pockets of upper level divergence to help convection along. Limited moisture will keep chances very low. Upper trough expands over the Great Lakes this weekend into early next week. Daytime highs will stay below normal. Coolest days will be Sat and Sun as stronger shortwave trough and enhanced rain chances affect area (Sat) and with lowest temps aloft rotating across (Sun). Readings both of these days will be in the upper 50s near Lk Superior and into the upper 60s far south central. Steep mid level lapse rates up to 6.5-7c/km at times with several shortwaves and pockets of enhanced moisture and sfc troughs wrapping through the region within the large scale trough will lead to daily chances for showers and some thunderstorms Sat through at least Mon, with maximum coverage occurring during peak heating late morning through aftn into early evening and/or when stronger shortwaves come across. On days the thunderstorms are stronger, at least small hail would occur. Could also see some more cold air funnel episodes (similar to what occurred Mon of this week). As water temps warm up on Great Lakes, getting to the point where this type of upper trouging/cold air advection regime could even lead to waterspouts, though waters may be just cool enough to not support that at this time. Troughing begins to break down by middle of next week. Temperatures should warm back toward normal levels and the periodic chances of rain should end at least for a day or two. By late next week should see rain chances increase yet again as strong low crossing central Canada and cold front extending south across the plains allows warm and humid air to stream north into the Upper Great Lakes. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Thursday night) Issued at 442 AM EDT THU JUN 22 2017 VFR conditions are expected til around 10z-12z when moisutre and showers ahead of a trough help drop cigs to MVFR at IWD and SAW. Look for the most persistent MVFR cigs at SAW where upslope flow prevails. Some thunder may also be possible, mainly at IWD. Conditions should improve to VFR by afternoon with drier air moving in behind the trough. && .MARINE...(For the 4 AM Lake Superior forecast issuance) Issued at 442 AM EDT THU JUN 22 2017 Some patchy fog is possible today with rain sliding over the lake. Some patchy fog could linger into tonight. Winds will remain generally below 20kts today; however, there could be a brief increase in wind gusts with any thunderstorms that move over the marine environment. Winds should remain blo 20 knots into early next week. && .MQT WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... Upper Michigan... None. Lake Superior... None. Lake Michigan...

Once viewed by many as a problem limited to purveyors of high-end luxury goods, today counterfeiting has become a multi-billion dollar criminal activity that affects almost every American industry.
While criminals see the production and sale of counterfeit goods as a lucrative, low-risk business model, this illicit activity not only harms U.S. businesses but also puts American consumers at front line of severe risk, especially during the holiday shopping season.
On Cyber Monday 2015, consumer spending topped $3 billion in online sales, setting a new record for single-day online sales. According to an OECD report on counterfeiting released in April 2016, counterfeit and pirated goods represented up to 2.5% of world trade, or as much as $461 billion.
Unfortunately, illicit websites offering counterfeit goods identical to the genuine products are also growing exponentially, duping shoppers into buying shoddy and sometimes downright dangerous products.
- World-wide cross border trade in physical counterfeits alone costs the global economy $461 billion a year.
- Reports suggest that 97% of online pharmacies do not meet safety or legal standards, so it is especially important to remain vigilant when buying medicine online.
- In the United States, the total estimated manufacturer's retail price of seized goods in FY 2015 increased to $1,352,495,341.
- According to CBP, 11 million maritime containers arrive at our seaports. At land borders, another 10 million arrive by truck, and 3 million by rail.
- An additional quarter billion in additional cargo arrives in air travel, postal, and express consignment packages.
- Of these shipments, our agents seized over $1 billion in counterfeit goods, which unfortunately is estimated to be a small fraction of the counterfeit goods being sent into our country.
- Counterfeits also have the potential to put our military at risk and jeopardize our national security missions, according to two recent reports by the Department of Commerce and the Government Accountability Office.

PREVIEW-Apollo Group Q3 results may meet or exceed Wall Street
* What: Q3 results
* When: Monday, June 29
* Q3 expected to meet or beat market expectations
* Enrollments continue to grow
By Amulya Nagaraj
BANGALORE, June 26 (Reuters) - Apollo Group Inc APOL.O, like other education providers, has benefited from the recession as more people returned to school in search of a better degree, but analysts say the trend will taper off as the economy improves.
Thus the third quarter ended May 31 might well be the inflection point for the for-profit education provider.
"Enrollments will still be strong but this will probably be the best quarter. It will slow down after but not like falling off a cliff," BMO Capital analyst Jeffrey Silber said.
Economists have been talking about green shoots emerging in the U.S. economy ravaged by the credit crisis, and investors believe they do not bode well for education companies. Continuación...

Trent Reznor gives Rip-off Avoidance, Download & Share advice to fans
I managed to catch Nine Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor backstage for a chat on his views on copyright and digital music distribution just before they played at the Beijing Pop Festival on 9 Sep.
In May this year, Reznor famously launched a tirade against his label Universal Music in Australia when he found out that:
"Year Zero is selling for $34.99 Australian dollars ($29.10 US). No wonder people steal music. Avril Lavigne's record in the same store was $21.99 ($18.21 US). By the way, when I asked a label rep about this, his response was: "It's because we know you have a real core audience that will pay whatever it costs when you put something out - you know, true fans. It's the pop stuff we have to discount to get people to buy." So, I guess as a reward for being a "true fan" you get ripped off. "
And this week in Beijing, he again reiterated his disgust with the labels by stating
"We will put out one last album for Universal and after that we will sell albums directly to fans from our website at (say) $4 an album".
In full empathy with their fans, he even prepared a Chinese language section on the NIN website in preparation for their first ever concert in China, with a heartfelt message to his Chinese fans which translates as follows:
"As for the special situation in China, it does not seem to be easy to obtain Western music via legal channels, so I have the following suggestion for our fans: If you can find and buy our legal CDs, I express my thanks for your support. If you cannot find it, I think that downloading from the Internet is a more acceptable option than buying pirated CDs. Our music is easy to find on the Internet, and you might not need to spend much effort to find most of our songs. If you like our songs after you've heard them, please feel free to share it with your friends. As I have put all my effort and heart into my music, I sincerely hope that more and more people can share the enjoyment with us."
Reznor is adamant that fans should not have to jump through hoops of fire and pay unreasonable prices simply to get NIN's music - least of all in this day and age when every conceivable work of music could be made available a click away online.
As he pointed out, the world is getting smaller but labels are not taking advantage of this opportunity to put this music conveniently in front of fans. As proof of his intent and anger at artificial borders being upheld for profit, Reznor vetoed a label-planned European maxi-single for the song Capital G opting instead to release a Year Zero remix album at some point in the future. This way, fervent U.S. fans would not be forced to have to spend $30+ to import a two-song single that includes one new remix.
Reznor also stated that
"Since the CD came on the market, even with its relatively lower production costs compared to vinyl, labels saw it fit to increase prices exorbitantly while artists' age-old contracts meant they got the same amount as before - and even granting that the labels invest in marketing and take risks, it is still a great rip-off".
In his view, true fans are being made to pay to sustain the fat paychecks of label execs. These were the exact same sentiments that have been expressed by Chuck D of Public Enemy before - coincidentally Public Enemy was the other headlining act at the Beijing Pop Festival.
As a point of note, HMV is still selling music at global rate prices of US$18 in a lot of markets with imports going for the ridiculous price of US$25 and more. Makes one wonder if this also falls under the pirate CD category!
Reznor also thinks that DRM infested formats including the ones from iTunes do not serve fans well and he totally understands why they would instead resort to downloading ubiquitous DRM-free mp3s from BT and P2P networks.
Lest the misguided 'music wants to be free' movement conveniently hijack Reznor's stance as an endorsement to free-load, he emphatically states that there has to be a way that musicians are compensated without imposing barriers to fans and abusing their trust by commanding unfair price premiums.. Hence NIN has built up an outstanding website not only to communicate directly with fans but with a view to making it easy to access their music at a fair price once NIN's label dues are completed.
And what about the music?
Reznor reaffirmed his commitment to carrying on making the kind of music that's brought them this far and which they still believe in. He also panned label executives who are panicking at the downturn in the music industry and subsequently try to force artists to adopt "flavor of the month Timbaland productions" as the panacea for their self-inflicted afflictions.
Reznor further added,
"We didn't know what to expect in China as it is our first time here, so we brought all our equipment along. We didn't want to compromise in any way and wanted to give fans the full Nine Inch Nails experience. I think we might probably have even lost some money on this show"
And what a fantastic show it was - probably one of the more amazing shows seen in China. Credit to Beijing Pop Festival organizer Jason Magnus who moved mountains in China to put together a radical non-conformist line-up of NIN, Public Enemy, New York Dolls, Ramones (Marky) and rebel Chinese rocker Cui Jian amongst others.
However, in this digital age, the next radical act in the music industry will probably be played out online and Trent Reznor has already set the stage for it.

Assembly of Canonical Orthodox Bishops of North and Central America Convenes in Chicago
CHICAGO, IL ŌĆō The second meeting of the Assembly of Canonical Orthodox Bishops of North and Central America convened on May 25th, 2011 ŌĆō exactly one year and one day after the first one in New YorkŌĆō in ChicagoŌĆÖ s Hilton OŌĆÖHare Airport Hotel under the chairmanship of His Eminence Archbishop Demetrios, the Primate of the Greek Orthodox Church in America.
The first-day session opened with prayers with 44 bishops present. Most Canonical Orthodox Bishops from Canada did not attend, as they are seeking to establish a separate assembly. At the beginning of the meeting a letter was read from Patriarch Irinej of Serbia conveying that the Serbian members of the Assembly could not be present at this meeting because of the needs of the Serbian Church.
The agenda and the minutes of the first meeting were approved. Archbishop Demetrios delivered his chairmanŌĆÖs opening address, and invited the vice-chairmen Metropolitan Philip of the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America, and Archbishop Justinian, the Representative of the Moscow Patriarchate to address the Assembly.
Archbishop Demetrios conveyed the greetings of His All Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew and said that His All Holiness ŌĆ£as the First Throne of Holy Orthodoxy, is much desirous of encouraging and enhancing the unity of the Church, especially through the Pre-Conciliar Conferences that have come to be known as the ŌĆśChamb├®sy ProcessŌĆÖ. ŌĆØ
Archbishop Demetrios underlined the importance of this second meeting of the Assembly: ŌĆ£It is not without significance that we have traveled many miles to be with one another, in a spirit of fraternity, peace, fellowship and above all Christian love. As Chairman of this Assembly I am grateful for your prayerful and irenic presence, and I am hopeful that we will be able to move our nascent body forward with positive steps that will lead to tangible results for all the Orthodox.ŌĆØ
The Secretary of the Assembly, Bishop Basil of the Antiochian Archdiocese presented the Secretariat report.┬Ā Another report and discussion followed on the agencies and endorsed organization of SCOBA (Standing Conference of Orthodox Bishops in the Americas).

Westward Ho
Prior to the 1850s, the area that was to become Westminster, Colorado was inhabited by small herds of buffalo and antelope and was dotted with small marshy ponds. The discovery of gold in Little Dry Creek in 1858 encouraged pioneers to settle in Colorado rather than continue on to the promise of riches in California. The Homestead Act of 1862 also brought many people from the east to settle in the Colorado Territory.
When the mid-westerner Pleasant DeSpain brought his wife and six sons to Colorado in 1863, the vast territory between Denver City and the Rocky Mountains was rich and untamed. Having farmed in the lush Mississippi Valley of Illinois, DeSpain homestead 160 acres in what is now the City of Westminster and became the area's first resident.
In 1871, the year after DeSpains homestead, another Midwesterner, Edward Bruce Bowles, homesteaded south of the DeSpain farm. A native of Springfield, Missouri, he had come west in 1863, driving a herd of cattle across the plains. The large red brick home which he built still stands at the 3294 West 72nd Avenue. The Bowles House is now a home to the Westminster Historical Society.

It depends on how bad their behavior was and how much I like their work. Im thinking of examples:
Pedophilia - Polanski
Racism/inciting violence - Ted Nugent
Infidelity - Picasso
Addiction/general jerkiness - RD Jr
I dislike all the above though. I don't think I could ignore the first two indiscretions. The second two, maybe.

"We had our reception inside the house at Caversham, it was beautiful, everything ran smoothly and I have since been told that the food was some of the best my guests have eaten."

"We caught the Caversham house boat from Ascot to Caversham house for our wedding ceremony in the Sunken Gardens, everything was wonderful except due to the temperture on the day we found the boat very hot, not the fault of the vendor just one of the problems getting married on a 37C day"

UNM's Mitchell Garver Named Mountain West Player of the Week
March 26, 2012
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - New Mexico outfield/catcher Mitchell Garver has earned Mountain West Baseball Player of the Week honors for games played from March 19-25, 2012. No pitchers were nominated this week.
Garver, a junior from Albuquerque, N.M., hit .417 (5-12) for the week as the Lobos went 2-1, winning a home series with TCU for the first time in Albuquerque and taking over sole possession of first place in the Mountain West.
In the series opener, the Lobos won 9-8 with Garver going 2-for-4 with three runs scored, an RBI and a triple. Garver scored on a wild pitch in the bottom of the ninth to tie the score at eight. The Horned Frogs won Saturday's game 5-4 despite a 2-for-3 performance by Garver. He scored two runs to go along with two RBI, a double and his third home run of the season. The home run put the Lobos on the board in the bottom of the second after TCU had taken a 3-0 lead. The Lobos won the series finale, 12-7, on Sunday with Garver behind the plate defensively after two games in left field. Garver was 1-for-5 in the game with two runs scored and threw out a runner attempting to steal third base. For the week, he had one walk, one strikeout and was hit by a pitch. Defensively, he was errorless for the week with seven putouts and one assist.
"I'm seeing the ball well," Garver said. "I'm looking for one pitch and when I get my pitch I hopefully won't miss it. I've been working hard on getting on top of the ball and squaring it up and putting it in play."
This is the third-straight week the Lobos have taken the Player of the Week honor in the conference. It is also the second-career Player of the Week honor for Garver.

Rating agency Standard & Poor's downgraded 34 Italian banks on Friday, including heavyweights UniCredit (CRDI.MI) and Intesa Sanpaolo (ISP.MI), citing a reduced ability to roll over their wholesale debt and expected weak profitability.
The move follows S&P's downgrade of Italy's sovereign rating last month to BBB+, part of a mass downgrade of nine euro zone countries.
In a statement, S&P said its so-called Banking Industry Country Risk Assessment had worsened to group 4 from group 3 — out of 10 groups — reflecting its more negative view on Italy's banking system.
"Italy's vulnerability to external financing risks has increased, given its high external public debt, resulting in Italian banks' significantly diminished ability to roll over their wholesale debt," it said.

Video-Enabled Collaboration
Posted by Henry Dewing on January 8, 2010
- 407 Recommendations
- 0 comments
Over the past couple months I have talked at an accelerating pace to vendors and buyers who are interested in delivering video solutions to support communications and collaboration. The concepts and solutions range from desk top to telepresence, conferencing to one-on-one, and both synchronous as well as asynchronous. Technology finally appears ready to deliver that 60% of non-verbal human communications in ways that users can actually adopt, use, and integrate into their daily work lives. Vendors continue to develop capabilities and solutions, and buyers continue to demand answers about ROI, security, and reliability. All the while video-native users are adopting consumer apps to get the job done, using capabilities from firms like Skype, Google (YouTube) and Apple (iChat). What are people doing?
1. Real Time Two-Way Video (aka Video Conferencing)
Reducing travel to recurring staff meetings used to be the predominant use case, but with better work product sharing has led to more use by product development and other creative teams, while desktop capabilities have brought lone remote workers onto video and good high definition resolutions have enabled some business people to use video conferencing for M&A negotiations or hiring interviews. Video, Web, and Audio Conferencing are rapidly converging to become 'unified' conferencing.
2. One-Way Video (aka Scheduled Broadcast or Narowcast)
Once used to push corporate propaganda to the lunch room, corporate broadcasts now deliver town hall meetings to desktops, product information to retail kiosks, and product launch information to resellers and agents. Digital signage and video streaming solutions that optimize network utilization -- using video caches, multicasting, and even peer to peer streaming -- help companies to adopt video streaming using existing network capacity.
3. Archived Video (aka User Generated Content)
I first used the phrase "YouTube for the Enteprise" in a webinar with Communicado (now Qumu) in September of 2007, and as I talk with strategist and product managers at collaboration vendors I hear more and more about it –Cisco (Show and Share), IBM (Digital Media Factory), Kontiki (Video Center), and Microsoft (Sharepoint and Silverlight) all aim to enable the easy creation and consumption of user (or corporate) generated video. Saving these video archives on collaboration platforms means that videos are just another file type stored in virtual project rooms, portals, and file systems.
What does this mean?
Video is flooding networks, and it is not just fun and games. Serious companies are investing serious time and money to improve clarity and speed of communications and collaboration at their companies, so vendors need to help these companies manage the solutions and the networks that support the coming wave of video-enabled collaboration – and show the positive business value of the video adoption.
I have talked with Polycom execs who are working to integrate video and web conferencing in video rooms and at the desktop, and with Premiere Global execs who are looking to provide personal conferencing spaces tuned to help users feel that they are in the same room when collaborating. IBM and Cisco execs are convinced that video is the answer to enabling grossly distributed work teams to collaborate and communicate clearly. All while helping their customers manage the networks and platforms required.
I'd like to hear about your new plans – as either a vendor or a buyer – for video-enabled collaboration in 2010.

Who pulled up Adealaide's old tram lines?
11/12/2012 , 1:02 PM by john Thompson-Mills
Once upon a time Adelaide had loads of tramlines. Now there are hardly any and with our roads being increasingly clogged, people want them back.
So why were the lines ripped up in the 1950's and what was life like in Adelaide when trams ruled the roads?
891Morings host Spence Denny spoke with Roger Wheaten, President of the Australian Electric Tram Association.

BBC bias is endemic, Louise
The many journalists who have been desperately trying to draw attention to the BBC's horrific anti-Israel bias for years can finally take a breather: Louise Bagshawe, best-selling chick-lit author turned politician, has come to the rescue. As the JC reported last week (and again this), she has fought an ongoing battle with the BBC public affairs team regarding the channel's lack of coverage of the Fogel family massacre, of which she only learned via Twitter due to their virtually non-existent reporting of the murders (the BBC only mentioned the Fogels in passing in other articles and omitted many details).
Whilst I am always glad to see coverage of the BBC's anti-Israel bias, especially from high-profile figures like Bagshawe, I can't help but marvel at her naivety. As she notes herself, "the BBC has long been accused of anti-Israel bias" – so it took a three-month old little girl to have her head sawn off only to be met with silence from the BBC for you to actually believe these accusations of bias?
No, not quite. "As the mother of three children, one the same age as little Eldad...I was stunned at the BBC's seeming lack of care...as a mother, I am shocked at the silence. As a politician, I am dismayed at the apparent bias and indifference."
The BBC's "seeming lack of care" and "apparent bias and indifference"? Come on, Louise, you've come this far – why not go a step further and call a spade a spade: the BBC is institutionally biased. Period. There's nothing "seeming" about it.
You don't need to be a mother or a politician to see this, but perhaps you do need to rely on something other than the BBC as your source of information.
Yes, the BBC could also be described as careless and indifferent – there's not a committee that actively decides not to report on the murder of Israeli children, or to withhold the true number of unprovoked attacks on Israel - but it is important to realise that this indifference stems from the sinister reality that anti-Israel bias has become so engrained within the BBC that it's now simply the norm.
Once in a while someone like Louise Bagshawe will stumble across an article via Twitter, discover a family was slaughtered, including a child of the same age as her own and it will therefore strike a chord. She will wonder why she didn't hear about it from the BBC, she'll maybe kick up a bit of a fuss, write a letter of complaint, but soon that family will be forgotten and everyone will go back to being blissfully unaware.
Because, after all, as Bagshawe was told by Lord Patten, the new chairman of the BBC Trust during his confirmation hearing on the day before the Fogel murders, "bias against Israel doesn't exist within the BBC".
He assured her that if it did, he would ultimately "take it to the BBC Trust", and in the name of political neutrality said he would give up his membership of a Palestinian aid organisation. How reassuring.

Blessings in a Backpack Canada on Global TV
Blessings in a Backpack Canada was featured on Global News Hour Toronto's "Making a Difference" on June 20th 2011.
How it started
Blessings in a Backpack was founded in the United States in 2005 because underprivileged children who are fed through government programs at school during the week, have little food to eat at home on the weekends. The program came to Canada in 2008. Canada is one of the only developed countries in the world without a national meal program for children in schools. We are currently in more than 60 schools in Canada and we hope to expand to all regions in need.Read More
Take Action
There is no shortage of actions you can take to help children across Canada, from donating money to holding backpack drives.Read More
Who are we?
Blessings in a Backpack is non-profit organization currently feeding children internationally, and is working to expand across Canada. We are feeding the future of Canada, one school at a time. Join our battle against hunger to improve educational success!Read more about us...
What people are saying
Keeping kids in school, one stomach at a time.National Post
This is a life-changing program. For some of the students, this is the first time they've ever had a real backpack before, let alone one filled with food so desperately needed.Mena Paternostro, Coordinator, Student Nutrition Program, TDSB
I like taking the backpack home because sometimes when we don't have money for food, the backpack really helps. We keep some of the food for our school lunches on Monday. We like bringing the backpack home because we know we will have more food for the weekend.Violet, Grade 5 Student

HP is cutting 27,000 employees in a restructuring that will focus on big data/analytics and the cloud, and the move weighs heavily not only on those affected, but everyone else across a changing IT industry.
Hewlett Packard's CEO, Meg Whitman, said the painful move was part of a strategy to refocus the hardware and software giant on what she describes as "some of the biggest shifts in technology that I have seen in my career," Wired's Epicenter reports.
The single biggest change coming:
One part of the HP business that faces deep cuts is its services business, which saw revenue decline 1 percent year over year. HP bulked up on services when it bought EDS for almost $14 billion in 2008, but it has struggled since. It's due for a change, Whitman says. "Services is a turnaround, and it's going to take three to five years," she says. What it will take, Whitman says, is moving away from slower-growing, lower-margin services — typical IT outsourcing offerings – to faster-growing and higher-margin cloud services, application-modernization services, security and data analytics. "Headcount will be down" in the services business, Whitman says. "But I believe we will have a smaller, more profitable services business over the next two to three years."
Cloudline contributor Alexander Haislip wrote upon HP's recent all-in cloud launch:
HP has the power to dramatically accelerate and widen the adoption of both private and public cloud computing. And with that will come a whole new set of customer needs. Whether that's the need for integration over point-solutions, or the need for management of stateful machines instead of bring-it-up and burn-it-down instances. HP Cloud Services is not going to put Amazon and Rackspace out of business. HP is going to get the business Amazon and Rackspace can't get.
Need proof? Consider the quarter-billion-dollar contract HP closed along with General Dynamics to provide private cloud solutions for the U.S. Army earlier this month. There's no one else in technology, save IBM, that could have earned that business. The other HP is full of "elephant hunters" who know how the system works and have made careers of working it.
HP has the services and consulting pieces of the puzzle that big businesses, government agencies and other elephantine accounts need to feel comfortable with this whole cloud thing. That's not a capability that other IaaS providers have developed, let alone practiced for the past 40 years.
So while Microsoft looks to leverage its Office/Exchange ecosystem for cloud growth, HP will look to turn its services cred into a cloud power play.
Weigh in: Will HP dominate in the cloud? What does it need to do to become on your A-list?Go Back to Top. Skip To: Start of Article.

Spending for Homeless Youth Cut by almost $6 million
April 15, 2013
For a number of years, homeless assistance programs under the Runaway and Homeless Youth Act (RHYA) have been flat funded at $115 million annually. Those funds support the hard work of people on the frontlines of city, suburban, and rural homeless assistance programs, people working directly with homeless and at-risk youth.
These programs cannot afford the approximately 5 percent across-the-board cuts to discretionary programs required under sequestration. Across the nation, frontline service providers already regularly decline shelter and safety to young people because they simply lack capacity to serve them.
Sequestration took effect on Friday. March 1. For FY 2013, the current budget year, the Administration for Children and Families will be funded at around $109.25 million, about $5.75 million less than the previous year.
Federal funding makes up a small, but critical, part of funding for programs that help homeless youth. It augments the other public and private resources that they raise locally, and it helps round out often fragile budgets that are already insufficient to meet the need in their communities.
It makes it possible for them to conduct street outreach, provide emergency shelter (Basic Centers), and maintain transitional living programs for homeless youth. And it supports their valiant efforts to reunify young people with their family of origin or other caring adults, and their work it foster transitions to independence for those who cannot return home.
Now, these programs, and the youth who rely on them, are being asked to make do with less.
This will directly translate to fewer young people receiving critical crisis and safety services, family intervention, and independent living services. And it will increase the vulnerability of an already vulnerable subset of young people.
The Alliance and its national partners are among those working to undo spending cuts under sequestration that will hurt the most vulnerable people. The impact of sequestration is already being felt in reduced grant awards. Let us know what a reduction in these valuable resources means to your community.

I suffer with hip dysplasia so comfort is a priority for me where shoes are concerned, especially as I can't drive yet and walk miles most days.
Comfort often means compromising on style but that's not the case with the multi-coloured stripy ballerina pumps I was sent to try.
Boys canvas review
With summer (hopefully) approaching, it is time to kit out the children with some clothes and footwear that will see them through the warmer weather. Freddy is now at the age when he loves to explore, run around and have fun in the sun, so some casual, fun, canvas shoes are a seasonal essential. As he is learning to be more independent, having a pair of shoes he can get on and off himself is a real bonus. Continue reading Boys canvas review

MMC, Busan, Republic of Korea
SESSION TYPE: Arrhythmia and Coronary Artery Disease
PRESENTED ON: Monday, October 22, 2012 at 11:15 AM - 12:30 PM
PURPOSE: 19-51% of inferior acute myocardial infarction(AMI) patients combine with right ventricular infarction(RVI). RVI is associated with a highly increased in-hospital mortality. Therefore, early diagnosis of RVI in inferior acute myocardial infarction is very important. This study was planned to investigate the usefulness of B-type natriuretic peptide(BNP) in the early diagnosis of RVI.
METHODS: The patients who were diagnosed as inferior AMI and primary coronary intervention done within 6 hours were selected for this study. The subject patients(n=100) had a significant luminal narrowing at right coronary artery, and no specific findings in left coronary artery on coronary angiograms. The patients were divided into group A for those who had a proximal lesion and RVI, group B with a proximal lesion but without RVI, and group C with a distal lesion.
RESULTS: Twenty eight of the 100 subject patients suffered from RVI. Among 72 patients who did not accompany with RVI, 26(36%) had a significant stenosis in their proximal portion while 46(64%) had a significant distal stenosis. The level of BNP was 298.8±138.5 pg/mL in group A(n=28), 83.2±53.6 pg/mL in group B(n=26), and 68.1±46.9 pg/mL in group C(n=46) respectively. BNP was increased when RVI was accompanied regardless of the site of the lesion.
CONCLUSIONS: BNP is a useful marker for diagnosis of combined RVI in case of inferior AMI.
CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: BNP is a useful marker for diagnosis of combined RVI in case of inferior AMI.

Theorie goes from the Real World to reality
When The Real World: Denver production crew took over the former home of B-52 Billiards, at 1920 Blake Street, they turned it into some pretty swank digs. And in November 2006, before the MTV show had even finished its run, Shane Alexander and Josh Hawkinson bought the building and remodeled it again, this time into Theörie, an ultra-swank club and ambitious restaurant.
But the reality of running a restaurant can be much rougher than life on The Real World, and Theörie recently stopped serving food. Although the kitchen is still available for private parties, Alexander and Hawkinson are concentrating on the club side of the business.

normally we would just run flare by ford and run it that way but the area were going to be working in is on concrete and they just poured a brand new slab so we can't break that up for gold any further back so its gonna have to be a very small hole so thats why I was wondering if we can do it that way but still be incorrect if I have to break this lab then that's all we have to do but I'm just trying to avoid breaking the brand new concrete
Years ago working in a campus lab we had tin pipe for distilled water. Probably installed in the 50s. It was just a gravity system from the roof storage tank down. Only thing we found to fit was a "g" coupling.
tin and lead are both soft matrerials and should be able to be rounded with a simple swedging tool if needed. I beleive a ford and g coupling are similar. Just make sure to properly retain for movement.
they also make a municipality style coupling that has a ss gripper built into the rubber gaskets that dig in and prevent a pull out. Our water co. Uses them on soft copper all the time.

I had to look up a "ford coupler" never hear of one before,
not trying to change the subject, but I find it kind of interesting, that some bashing the press couplings and the shark bites and so on when dresser type and these ford couplings have been around for a long time, and have seemed to the coupling of choice in many areas,

sewermonster85 commented05-15-2014, 09:45 AMEditing a commentFord fittings are the only transition fittings accepted to convert led 2 copper ..forgive me for my ignorance I didn't mean to sound like I was bashing shark bites and pex pipe and new methods because I've never used those so I can't speak negatively about those.I was just in a tight spot and the guy poured a lot of new concrete .and we're trying to avoid breaking into it so just based on the opening we're going to have I was just trying to see our options because I know your not allowed to connect lead to lead directly thats why I was wondering if we can break it with a female round way and Mail by Ford fittings
I think that would probably work. Might need to use a very short piece of copper with a male flare adapter into the roundway and a flare X ford fitting on the other side of the roundway. I can't see you being able to maneuver the 1" lead enough to get the ford fittings all the onto the lead on both sides. the flare on one side would make it a lot easier IMO

sewermonster85 commented05-16-2014, 08:14 AMEditing a commentI got lucky .When we exposed the round way, there was a little wiggle room and I was able to get it.the existing round way only leaked when off.the drain port on the side broke off probably when the guy was trying to turn it off and jabbed the key and it rubbed the side of the round way.trying to change a l" service on the fly sucks.thankfully it wasn't that cold yesterday.its only crazy if I'd doesn't work..lol
