Despite memory lapse, the Boss is unforgettable
Philadelphia Inquirer , 2002-10-08
By Tom Moon
Four songs into his set Sunday night at the First Union Center, Bruce Springsteen strapped on his harmonica and strode purposefully to the microphone, as he's done so many times before. Strumming a basic chord progression, he told the rabid near-capacity crowd that for the next few songs he would need some quiet. And then he froze.
"I forgot this baby," he said, incredulously. A long minute went by as the Boss, who turned 53 late last month, consulted privately with his wife, singer and guitarist Patti Scialfa, and his longtime foil, Steven Van Zandt.
When he came back, Springsteen apologized for his "early Alzheimer's" moment, and joked that he knew he shouldn't have done that LSD before he went on stage. Then he and Scialfa crept tentatively into the ethereal moaning that opens "Empty Sky," one of the memorable songs on his current The Rising.
The performance that followed was fresh evidence of Springsteen's greatness: full of sensitivity and stark, restrained feeling; vocals informed not just by the horrors of last September, the song's inspiration, but by a more generalized sense of the fragility of life. There was a palpable tremble in Springsteen's voice, as if his bout of amnesia in front of thousands had reminded him of his own mortality. Yet he avoided easy bathos, transforming a song that came across morose when the tour opened in August into a startlingly vivid and unexpectedly poignant meditation.
The somber songs of The Rising have clarified Springsteen's vision for rock-and-roll as not just a party, but a spiritual path, one that encompasses the break-the-chains yearning of "Born to Run" and the more reflective, redemption-seeking that underpins "Countin' on a Miracle."
He's always brought a little revival tent to the arena, but now his preacherly notions - in Badlands, it was believing in love and looking to faith as a sustaining force; on "Into the Fire," from The Rising, it's drawing inspiration from those who sacrificed their lives for others - are the focal point. The obstacles differ from one narrative to the next, but it's clear that Springsteen sees his characters as being on the same heroic journey. Those who once schemed to escape Jungleland are less sure of themselves now, but no less hopeful as they cope with their loneliness and look out over beloved places now reduced to rubble.
Sunday's show offered many chances to appreciate the sweep of Springsteen's career and the ways his songwriting has evolved. He opened with a leaden "The Rising" that talked a good game of transcendence but didn't lift an inch off the ground, and followed that with another new selection, "Lonesome Day," that sat in the same plodding tempo.
Then came "Night," from Born to Run, and suddenly the E Street Band snapped gloriously to life, augmenting Springsteen's account of scrambling soul crusaders with music shot full of anxious energy and the sense that something serious was on the line. Later, the contrast between the earnest and wordy "old" Bruce and the doleful current one was magnified when the exuberant torrent of images that is "For You," from 1973's Greetings From Asbury Park, N.J., was followed by The Rising's downcast current-events lamentation "Worlds Apart," which has been rearranged since the start of the tour, and is now notable for a weeping guitar dialogue between Springsteen and Van Zandt.
Springsteen's famously durable power-drill of a voice sounded shot by the halfway point of a show that stretched nearly three hours. But when, during the second encore, he sauntered through a feverishly swinging "Kitty's Back," it was as though this tireless performer had just gotten a second wind.
Even in the earlier scratchy moments, he invested just about every line with serious commitment: He sang "My City of Ruins" as though determined that his words, and the hymnlike responses of his band-cum-street choir, could revive a dying town. He dropped a phrase in the first verse of "She's the One" (almost leading to a rare E Street train wreck), then roared back to deliver ferocious ad libs, as though to atone for the blunder.
And after offering a perfunctory reading of the verses of "Mary's Place" and shouting the band introductions (when he got to saxophonist Clarence Clemons, he said, "You wish you could be like him, but you can't"), he bent at the waist and hushed the band for a soulman's improvised falsetto fantasy on the line "I've been missing you." It was spine-tingling.
In addition to a healthy chunk of The Rising, the set offered generous helpings of early material (including a thoughtful "Streets of Philadelphia," which he played solo on the piano), and a rousing "Born in the U.S.A.," prefaced with a Springsteen speech suggesting that President Bush's talk of war with Iraq deserves "full debate," because "vigilance and responsibility comes with the turf when you're born in the U.S.A." The band handled The Rising's contemplative elegies as though they were delicate sculptures, but for all the finesse on display, the evening's peak moments came when this legendary ensemble opened up and got loose - on the barreling "Ramrod," a surprisingly buoyant "Dancing in the Dark" and the delirious finale, "Kitty's Back."

BUIES CREEK, N.C. – Coming off its first loss of the season, Campbell returns to action Saturday at Loyola (Md.) in a battle of regionally-ranked opponents.
The Fighting Camels (3-1-1) saw their four-match unbeaten string halted Wednesday in a 3-1 setback against Elon at the Eakes Athletic Complex. Ranked 9th in this week's NSCAA South Atlantic Region poll, Campbell fell behind 2-0 after 35:13 of play.
J.J. Elder scored his team leading 5th goal of the year late in the opening period, but Ricki Gaez and Mitchell Cardenas both hit the cross bar and Elon tacked on an insurance strike in the second half.
Six of Elder's 10 shots this season have been on target and five have hit the nets. The sophomore transfer from Appalachian State scored game-winning goals against UNC Wilmington and Hartford and was joined on the UNCW adidas Classic all-tournament team by teammates Jonathan Ray and Classic Offensive MVP Mitchell Cardenas.
A junior from Mexico City, Mexico, Cardenas has produced 5 points on 1 goal and 3 assists through 5 matches.
Loyola (3-1-1) was ranked 6th in this week's North Atlantic Region poll then defeated Towson 2-1 Wednesday in a Baltimore derby. Stephen Dooley and Gerwyn Jones both scored in the first nine minutes and the Greyhounds won their second-straight outing.
Last year, Campbell and Loyola battled to a scoreless draw in the season opener at Buies Creek as Ryan Amons recorded his first career shutout in goal. The Camels out-shot the 2009 MAAC champions 22-8, and hit the woodwork twice while holding the visitors to just two shots on target.
The Greyhounds lead the all-time series 2-0-1 including a 1-0 victory in 2008 at Baltimore.
Following Saturday's contest, Campbell returns home to the Eakes Complex on Wed., Sept. 21 for a 7:00 p.m. kick-off against Davidson.

Gig Alerts: Razia
"Salamalama Aby"
Playing at: S.O.B.'s (204 Varick St., SoHo)
Get: Tickets | Directions
When New York-based singer and songwriter Razia Said returned to her native Madagascar to record an album influenced by the music and culture of her birth country, she was shocked and appalled by the environmental destruction of her home due to slash and burn agricultural techniques and climate change. Distressed by the declining state of her homeland, Said decided to dedicate her record Zebu Nation (released in February) to bringing awareness to the devastation of Madagascar while celebrating the sounds of the country. "Salamalama Aby," sung in Malagasy, is a bouncy tune inspired by tsapika, an energetic style of dance music native to southern Madagascar. Tonight Said celebrates the release of her album with a special Earth Day performance.

Child Poverty Up in 96 of Top 100 School Districts Since 2007, Census Says
The child poverty rate rose during the recession in 1 of every 5 counties across the nation, the U.S. Census Bureau said today.
The increase in poverty between 2007 and 2010 was especially pronounced in the nation's largest school systems, where 96 of the top 100 districts reported growth in the number of poor children, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
The Census Bureau tracks school district poverty rates for the U.S. Department of Education, which uses the data to direct federal funding to poor schools. The figures also are used to determine the places where poor children's test scores must be reported separately under the No Child Left Behind Act, which can affect school funding and personnel.
The government sets the poverty level at $22,113 for a four-person household that includes two people under 18.
Lee County, Florida, reported the greatest increase in poor students during the recession. The proportion of poor children in the district, whose population includes about 90,000 children, almost doubled to 25.3 percent.
The Detroit City School District, which was the poorest in the nation in 2007, remained at the bottom in 2010. The bureau reported 47.2 percent of the 139,300 children in the nation's ninth-largest district are poor, a 20 percent increase from 2007.
The nation's largest school district -- New York City, with an estimated 1.25 million children between the ages of 5 and 17 -- reported a rise in poverty to 29 percent in 2010, up from 26.6 percent in 2007.
School districts in Cherry Creek, Colorado; El Paso, Texas; Mobile, Alabama; and Seattle reported decreases. The Cherry Creek district in suburban Denver had 11 percent fewer poor students in 2010, with a child poverty rate of 8.6 percent.
Almost one-quarter of the 13,619 districts in the nation have 20,000 or more students. Those districts contain 81.6 percent of poor children, the Census Bureau said.

text: I really like my 709 Slim in everyway except for the rear sight. I turned the adjustments screws and the metal seems to be soft, as the slot twisted out and now looks ugly. Has anyone heard of an aftermarket sight being worked up, or maybe just allen screws to replace those slotted screws - I hate slotted screws. Thanks Ross

Rockstomper H1 High steer arm Review...
I bought the H1 offset D44 high steer arm for my YJ... When I originally called I was told they are made to order and it is about a 2 week wait, I wasn't ready to order yet so I kept that in mind.
I called to order and they had just started a run, he slipped another in and they got the drilling/tapering done within a day and sent it out -- had it in almost exactly a week including ship time from CA... great service.
They asked questions to make sure I was getting the right part, and didn't need anything else. Great to deal with.
The arm itself is beefy, and clears the H1 offset very well. Here is a pic of the arm and studs they sent me, and also a pic of it on my drivers side knuckle with the H1 wheel mounted. (I only bought a passenger side arm and my other is out being machined) It does have the tapers for the conical washers. I will be buying a second arm this fall for my high steer.
I will update this thread when the jeep gets on the road and driveable.

I'm curious about something. In another thread people were being critical of the type of grip a guy was using in a photo. I believe that the grip used while using a handgun would vary , depending on a person's comfort. I guess what i'm trying to say is, nobody grips a baseball bat,golf club or tennis raquet exaxtly the same as the next guy.
If I use a grip that works for me, shouldn't that be the grip I should use? Do you have to use a grip that (insert famous gun guru's name)reccomend ?

The curse of the Kennedy family has struck again after Mary Richardson Kennedy, the estranged wife of Robert F Kennedy Jr, was found dead today.
The body of the 52 year old was discovered in an out-building at her Mount Kisco home in New York.
The mother-of-four reportedly took her own life.
As yet no cause of death has been released, but American media is reporting that she was discovered hanged.
An autopsy for the 52-year-old has been scheduled for today.
Mary Kennedy, an architect, had in the past struggled with drug and alcohol issues, and had been arrested twice for driving under the influence.
She was first arrested in May 2010 and charged with driving while intoxicated.
Her only passenger was a dog, and police said she had a blood-alcohol level of 0.11 per cent; the legal limit is 0.08 per cent.
Her license was suspended.
Mr Kennedy, a radio host and lawyer, is the son of Senator Robert F Kennedy and the nephew of President John F Kennedy, both of whom were assassinated.
A statement issued today by Robert Kennedy Jr's chief of staff, said Mary Kennedy, "inspired our family with her kindness, her love, her gentle soul and generous spirit."
"Mary was a genius at friendship, a tremendously gifted architect and a pioneer and relentless advocate of green design who enhanced her cutting edge, energy efficient creations with exquisite taste and style."
Robert F Kennedy Jr married Mary Richardson in 1994, it was Mr Kennedy's second marriage and the ceremony was conducted on a boat on the Hudson River.
They were married until 2010 when Mr Kennedy filed for divorce. They had four children.
Yet another unexpected death related to the Kennedy clan is likely to fuel once again discussion of the so-called Kennedy curse.
A number of unexpected deaths have struck the family including the assassinations of President and Robert Kennedy, the deaths of President Kennedy's son and wife in a plane crash, and the deaths of two of Robert F Kennedy's sons, Michael and David in a skiing accident.

Linear regression, error on both vaules x and y
I measured the hall-current of a Ge-semiconductor. The experiment
yielded data for the current and for the voltage, both with their
own error. Both measurements are uncorrelated.
Now both the voltage and the current have individual uncertainties due
to the method of measurement.
How can I perform a linear fit of this dataset and incorporate both errors?

|Topic Review (Newest First)
Difficulty with deciding to go steel is that there are not as many boats on the market at any one time and to find a broker who specialised would be pretty hard I would think. Holland is a likely place to start looking as they, along with the French seem to be most into metal sailing boats. If you have no experience with steel then think very carefully about your decision. Steel is wonderfully strong and relatively easy to work on but maintenance wise only timber requires more work and like timber, steel can deteriorate very quickly indeed if it is left unattended.
That said, our boat is a Van de Stadt sloop. 34' multi chine. We've only had her about six months now and I have to say she is a beauty. Never going to be a light air screamer as the big negative of a small steel boat is the weight, but in anything over ten knots she is fine and she feels as solid as a rock compared to my previous fibreglass boat. We chose her, by the way, not because she is steel but because she screamed "buy me" when we first stepped on board and then proceeded to pass every test put to her. I'd have to say though, if I was buying another boat in excess, say of 40' I'd probably go back to plastic but that's only cos in reality I'm a lazy old sod.
|IIRC, Van de Stadt is based out of Holland and designs a fair number of metal boats.
Steel Cruiser
We're looking into buying a steel cruiser and have a wish to view say ten cruisers to get a feel of different sizes and layouts.
We've looked in vain on the net to find a broker to visit here in the UK with a fair selection to view. We're willing to travel to say Holland or Ireland.
Any suggestions gratefully received

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 9/4/2014 (1171 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Crime is down overall, according to statistics released by city police, but there are still concerns such as the number of car thefts, which rose last year.
Brandon Police Service Chief Ian Grant said he's pleased to see both crimes against people, and crimes against property, down overall.
"I'm quite happy with the overall results in 2013," Grant said in an interview on Wednesday.
Total calls for service rose 2.6 per cent to 32,124 in 2013 from 31,286 in 2012. But those calls can include requests for help that aren't crime-related — for such things as mental health issues or mediating disputes between neighbours.
But statistics that compare 2013 BPS crime figures to those of 2012, which Grant shared with city council earlier this week, show that the number of crimes themselves has gone down.
Crimes against persons — which include homicide, sexual assault, robbery and uttering threats — were down seven per cent altogether. There were 654 such crimes in 2013, and 706 in 2012.
The two crimes that were up in this category were homicides and uttering threats.
There were three homicides in 2013, compared to one in 2012.
Grant pointed out that each of those cases ended successfully with arrests or charges laid.
In two cases — a fatal stabbing on Louise Avenue on March 11, 2013, and a killing at the Motel 6 on April 10, 2013 — both accused were ultimately found not criminally responsible due to mental illness.
The third homicide case is that of Earl Beebe, whose body was found in his Victoria Avenue suite with multiple stab wounds on Dec. 28.
David Andrew Paul was recently arrested and charged with second-degree murder in relation to that case, and the matter is still before the courts.
There were 88 reports of uttering threats in 2013, versus 82 in 2012. Sexual assault and assault rates were down, while the number of robberies remained the same, with 38 reports in each year.
The crimes against property category also saw a drop. In this case, the rate fell six per cent to 2,152 from 2,283.
Arson, break-ins, theft, fraud and vandalism were all down.
However, car theft jumped 30 per cent to 82 reports in 2013 from 63 in 2012.
Grant said the force is trying to educate the public about the need to stop leaving vehicles unlocked with the keys inside, especially as they idle in winter.
"We continue to encourage the public to secure your vehicles, lock your vehicles, definitely don't leave keys in your vehicles," Grant advised, adding there were 28 cases in which vehicles were stolen after being left unlocked with the keys inside.
He said joyriders or transportation seekers, rather than professional thieves, tend to be behind car thefts in Brandon. Most vehicles are recovered.
Also up was the number of weapon offences (up 35 per cent to 46 cases from 34) and impaired driving (up 43 per cent to 153 from 107).
Part of the increase in weapons offences, Grant said, come from two particular cases where numerous weapons were seized and charges laid.
As for the impaired driving rate, that's due in part to the Report Impaired Drivers 911 program that encourages citizens to pull over and use their cellphone to report drunk drivers. As a result, citizens are reporting drunk drivers more often.
There was a big jump of 37 per cent in drug offences last year compared to the year previous. That included a 95 per cent increase in drug trafficking.
However, Grant said investigators were busy with a major drug investigation in 2012 — actually, the biggest investigation in force history.
That investigation took resources that were later freed up in 2013 to investigate other cases and that led to the increase in cases for that year.
Officers also wrote five per cent more tickets in 2013 (3,820) than they did in 2012 (3,642), which includes traffic tickets.
Some of those tickets were handed out during various traffic programs that include checkstops and a recent focus on school zones.
Grant blamed bad weather and increased traffic volume for a 22 per cent rise in the number of collisions (up to 1,424 from 1,168).
As for the general drop in the crime rate, Grant pointed out that it could be due to a variety of explanations.
Brandon University criminologist Kevin Wong also points to a number of possible factors when it comes to the falling crime rate.
"In terms of the crime rates, the rates for property and violent offences are consistent with the general trend in Canada," Wong said. "Over the past two decades, there has been a significant decline in the crime rates and the homicide rate."
Wong said it's possible that the trend is due to an aging population, improving economic conditions in Canada or a shift from street crime toward Internet crime, which makes it tougher to make arrests.
Law enforcement has also shifted its focus on more serious crimes, Wong said, while there's also a trend toward diverting less serious offences from court or decriminalizing them.
Wong also praised the BPS focus on community policing as a move in the right direction.
The statistics show that there were 396 policing patrols, 198 school presentations and 95 community presentations done in 2013.
Grant said greater police presence — officers walking the streets, for example, or attending events and interacting with people —can make would-be criminals think twice before committing an offence.

The Australian Food and Grocery Council has told a Senate Committee hearing container deposit schemes are expensive and a burden on businesses.
The committee is looking at the effectiveness of deposit schemes in South Australia and the Northern Territory ahead of a possible introduction of a national program.
The Boomerang Alliance lobby group, which supports deposits, has told a hearing in Adelaide the price of drinks is higher in places where schemes exist.
It claimed drinks manufacturers were profiteering from the program and there needed to be an independent body to control any national program.
The Food and Grocery Council told the committee deposit schemes were expensive and inefficient.
General manager Jenny Pickles says drinks prices varied for market reasons and were not due to any profiteering.

The Rainbow Bridge
By the edge of a woods, at the foot of a hill,
Is a lush, green meadow where time stands still.
Where the friends of man and woman do run,
When their time on earth is over and done.
For here, between this world and the next,
Is a place where each beloved creature finds rest.
On this golden land, they wait and they play,
Till the Rainbow Bridge they cross over one day.
No more do they suffer, in pain or in sadness,
For here they are whole, their lives filled with gladness.
Their limbs are restored, their health renewed,
Their bodies have healed, with strength imbued.
They romp through the grass, without even a care,
Until one day they start, and sniff at the air.
All ears prick forward, eyes dart front and back,
Then all of a sudden, one breaks from the pack.
For just at that instant, their eyes have met;
Together again, both person and pet.
So they run to each other, these friends from long past,
The time of their parting is over at last.
The sadness they felt while they were apart,
Has turned into joy once more in each heart.
They embrace with a love that will last forever,
And then, side-by-side, they cross over… together.
Inspired by a Norse legend
Please don't cry. I'll take good care of Jake while we wait for you. I think you knew in your heart that we couldn't be apart for too long. We're together now as we should be and I know that brings you peace even though your heart is broken. Let Jonah make you smile. That's why I sent him to you. Don't worry about us anymore. I came down from the Bridge to get Jake from you and now we're cuddling, wrestling and making mischief up here just as you remember. Please let your memories and love for us fill your heart so that there is no room for tears. ~ Your Sweet Micah Angel
of missing your sweet angel face, Micah. Jake misses your cuddles and so do we. There isn't a day that passes that we don't think of you a multitude of times. We know you're watching over Jake from where you are and that is one of the reasons he's still with us. As much as you want him to be with YOU, you know we still need him here with us awhile longer...

(247.2 kB) But an unlikely coalition of big builders and environmental organizations has come up with a way to stimulate sales by making energy-efficient new housing more attractive to cost-conscious buyers. Their plan centers around a proposed piece of federal legislation called the SAVE Act (the name is a contraction of Sensible Accounting to Value Energy), which is designed to address a fundamental imbalance in the way federal mortgage programs appraise the value of new homes. The legislation will be presented to Congress sometime this spring under the sponsorship of Senator Michael Bennett of Colorado.Granite countertops vs. utility bills. The amount a buyer can borrow for a new home is determined in large part by its expected resale value. In general, the more value-added features a home has, the higher its perceived resale value and the larger the mortgage. Login or Register to continue reading

Claims adjuster
|This article may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards. (April 2009) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Claims adjuster (claim adjuster), or claims handler (claim handler), investigates insurance claims by interviewing the claimant and witnesses, consulting police and hospital records, and inspecting property damage to determine the extent of the company's liability.[1] In the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, South Africa, the Caribbean and New Zealand the term loss adjuster is used. Other claims adjusters who represent policyholders may aid in the preparation of an insurance claim.
In the United States, a claims adjuster's duties typically extend to include the following elements:
- Verify an insurance policy exists for the insured person and/or property. In general, these are written by the policy-holding insurance company.
- Risk(s) of loss(es), or damages to property, culminating in the loss of property and or bodily injury.
- After completing the above investigations, evaluate the covered injuries and/or damages that have been determined according to the coverage grants.
- Negotiate a settlement according to the applicable law(s), and identify coverages for which the insured is covered, following best insurance practices.
A Claims adjuster or Public Adjuster does not, and should not, engage in the practice of law. While adjusting the claim does mean applying the loss circumstances to the insured's policy, it does not account for if and when there becomes an issue of coverage, which is a matter and practice of Law, and should only be engaged by a properly licensed attorney.
In casualty insurance the main type of coverages include but may not be limited to the followings:
- First party auto and other than auto coverages (sometimes referred to collision and comprehensive coverages) there are numerous types of first party insurance coverages for any kind of risk of loss or damages.
- Third party liability for property damage of others property and bodily injury. (in law terms these are "tort" claims)
- Claim service representatives (employed by the insurance company, or an independent adjusting company).
In the two first instances, and the fourth, the adjuster operates on behalf of the insurer.
Adjusters may handle "property claims" involving damage to buildings and structures, or "liability claims" involving personal injuries or third-person property damage from liability situations, such as motor vehicle accidents, slip and falls, dog bites, or alleged negligent behavior. Some adjusters handle both types of claims and are known as "Multi-Line" adjusters. Also "All Lines Adjusters" may handle "any" type of claim already identified and also include professional liability, Hospital Professional Liability, Excess Liability, Physicians and Surgeons Liability, Aircraft Liability/Hull, Inland Marine, Ocean Marine, Boiler and Machinery, as well as various types of Bond Losses.
For a percentage of the settlement amount, Public adjusters work exclusively for the policyholder. This means there should be no inherent conflict of interest when it comes to advocating on the policyholder's behalf to the insurance company.
An independent adjuster could be working for multiple insurance companies or self-insured entities. If licensed by state authority they represent pinnacle of property loss knowledge in their field; whether it be residential, vehicular, marine, etc.[citation needed]
An adjuster will frequently verify that coverage applies through an insurance policy, investigate liability for the damages caused, and make compensation to the injured person based on their emotional or physical property damages.
Specific duties include:
- Notifying the insurer of a covered loss as defined under the policy of insurance
- Responding to claims in a timely manner
- Filing paperwork
- Communicating with policy holders
- Investigate liability
- Assess damages
- Research, detail and substantiate each aspect of the claim, including building damage, contents, and extra living expense claims.
- Prepare a detailed damages report based on monthly updated insurance cost software for the purpose of making an offer of settlement to the insured.
- If needed for specialty cost coding, negotiate with product/service providers on time and cost of repairs for the purpose of making an offer of settlement to the insured.
- Ensuring accurate procedures
- Protect the interest of the insurance company the adjuster represents, when dealing with claimants.
- Computer skills with a high degree of proficiency.
Some states now require adjusters disclose to claimants whose interest specifically independent, staff and public adjuster represent, before they proceed with the policyholder.
Always check your local chapter of Licensed Public insurance adjusters, or state agency, in order qualify an adjuster is properly licensed and in good standing. Some of the state chapters are AAPIA and NAPIA. In Florida, the chapter is FAPIA.
IEA conducts certified online classes for people. The Insurance Institute of America also provides training leading to professional designations. Some states accept the Associate of Claims designation, and will waive the licensing examination, and grant a license by the state insurance commission. Some insurance carriers, and independent adjusting companies provide in house training certified by the state insurance commission. They must be pre-approved by the licensing division. An adjuster license is issued to those that pass the requirements.
Many insurance companies prefer their claims adjusters to have a 4-year college degree preferably in business related fields. In the past, high school graduates have become claims adjusters by promotion from within the claims department. Since there are no college majors for claims adjusters, many states require a state certification in order to practice as an adjuster. States also require that a certain number of continuing education credits for claims adjusters are earned each year in order to maintain their license. This continuing education is achieved by attending seminars and online training from different claim adjuster educational resources. There are also professional designations that have become prevalent among claims adjusters; for example, The American Institute for Chartered Property Casualty Underwriters awards the Chartered Property and Casualty Underwriter (CPCU) designation to experienced underwriters.
Florida is one of the few states in the United States that has created specific designations for the licensing of insurance claims adjusters. The Accredited Claims Adjuster Designation, created by statute in coordination with Polk State College in 2002, allows an individual to obtain the Florida All Lines Independent or Company license, without taking the state licensing exam.
In some instances, such as with collapse insurance, courts have been involved in order to predicate a reasonable understanding of the guidelines of the policy in question. The meaning of terms such as "collapse" have undergone rigorous constitutional assessment.[2] This leads to some ambiguity between what the law says and what is enforceable by modern mandates. The idea of "Structural Integrity" may not always be a universally understood term, but several articles have been published on the topic[3] which suggests the field is evolving toward a continuity in terminology. For those interested in the claims adjustment field, in-depth study of legal principle is a necessity.
Most states require licensed adjusters to continue their education through a "continuing education" requirement.[4] Florida requires 24 hours of CE every two years.[5]
Working conditions[edit]
Claims adjusters work long hours including work nights and weekends. Their work is appointment based and must revolve around the needs of clients.[6]
Staff adjusters are those who work for a specific insurance company and may either have a company office provided from which to work or, if they are a resident adjuster, work out of their home. Independent and public claims adjusters often work from home. They receive their work assignments daily by fax machine, email, or by checking into a designated website. Staff adjusters receive their assignments when they arrive at the office first thing in the morning. In the case of a severe natural disaster such as floods or tornadoes, or other catastrophe, independent and public adjusters travel to the area to supplement local adjusters. Often this requires the incoming adjuster's presence in the field for days to weeks at a time.
Catastrophe adjusters may spend days to weeks in a hotel or RV near the field of operations. Husband and wife teams often enjoy this type of work as it allows them to work and travel together to different parts of the country. Adjusters should become familiar with the reimbursement rules for each company with whom they work and track all expenses used in the line of work.
Computer skills are essential, including keyboard skills. Most insurance companies store all documentation digitally. A digital camera is highly useful in documenting claims visually. Estimates, including auto and property losses, are prepared on computers connected to a corporate network. Laptop computers, pad, and other technologies make claims adjusting easier and consume less time. However, claims adjusting also requires a level of physical strength and stamina.
Property adjusters, for example, are often required to operate a 50-pound ladder and must stand, walk, kneel, crawl, and perform other physical demands as they investigate damaged property.[6]

I'm having problems with my my car because of the HKS-BOV.
I recently installed my HKS-BOV bout a month ago, My car bogs out on me. Everytime I switch gear to neutral to slow down my RPM jumps all the way down to 0 and then jumps back up again to regain power. Sometime when I slow down on the highway and then switch from a gear to nuetral, the car dies on me, I usually have to restart the car while the car is still moving on the highway, It just scares me sometimes. What can I do to my BOV to avoid this problem? thanks

MTRON SSD 32GB: Wile E. Coyote or Road Runner?by Gary Key on 8/15/2007 3:00 AM EST

enovikoff - Thursday, October 29, 2009 - linkI purchased two 7000 series SSDs for running a commercial datacenter (hey, they're billed as "enterprise") Both failed within 3 months and MTRON did not stand behind them. Instead they said that I should mail them to Korea(!!!) and wait to see if their tests indicated that they were defective. In my business "waiting" means I either have to spend money to replace the hardware or leave my customers high and dry. Attempts to RMA the SSDs through their reseller, NeoStore, also failed: NeoStore took the SSDs back and then never acknowledged emails or calls. $2000 worth of hardware (I have receipts/invoices to prove everything) is in their possession, and my company is out the $2000 as well as the refunds we had to pay our customers for the downtime.
Avoid MTRON: they're not ready to provide reliable units or do business in the United States. Reply

PrinceGaz - Thursday, August 16, 2007 - linkPresumably, the 32GB SSD is measured using binary GB (1,073,741,824 bytes) rather than decimal GB like traditional hard-drives, therefore making it roughly 34.3GB when comparing it to other hard-drives. Still a bit on the small side, but perhaps worth mentioning. Reply

brundlefly - Thursday, August 16, 2007 - linkI received one of these this week too for evaluating as a MySQL datadir.
The results were outstanding - we had a handful of problem queries which would take 30-40 seconds on a 15k Fujitsu MAS Ultra SCSI. The same queries take about 3 seconds on the MTRON.
I have worked with large MySQL databases for years, but there are a lot of examples like this one where I just cant qualify throwing a few days into A/B testing various indexing and table schemas for the performance issues with a handful of slow queries - especially when just *loading* a table and creating an index can take 20-30 min each. Throwing hardware at the problem is far cheaper and you can use simpler table layouts, plus you may not even be able to achieve this performance any other way in some scenarios.
IMHO this is a unique 'drop-in' solution for a lot of specific data center applications. In the long term you are going to see these replace mechanicals across the board in the server room because they will be cheaper and far simpler to deal with then SCSI and offer far better performance with low heat, noise, and power.
I also popped it in my notebook, which was just sublime. I already had the fastest mechanical in this notebook - a brand new Hitachi 7k200 with 16MB cache.
Within 34 min I had a 32-bit Vista Ultimate / Ubuntu Feisty x64 dual-boot setup - Vista booted in 21 seconds, Ubuntu in a little under 30 (a savings of about 6 seconds for each). No noise, vibration, or heat - the fan never came on, even set to high performance power profile. I didnt do a battery life test but from the battery remaining indicator I would expect an extra half hour.
Immediately the advantages of having a .1ms access time became apparent. Stuff just happens. Firefox cold boots in 3s, open a bunch of apps - the disk doesnt care, every piece of data is exactly .1ms away. Write speeds are more traditional but still as good as or better than the Hitachi. Subjectively the mental line between memory and disk usage just kind of dissolves.
While booting, I heard the BIOS check the optical drive, and it was like 'wtf with this prehistoric mechanical thing in my notebook!' In a notebook, the mechanical drive is dead, IMHO, but yet once the prices come down.
The lack of storage space was a downer, especially after just getting used to the 200GB in the Hitachi. I was thinking this could be partially augmented with a cheaper, slower 16GB expresscard SSD for music, etc.
On my overclocked 3Ghz C2D 6400 2GB Raptor desktop, the results were similar but subjectively not as exciting since I dont really care about heat noise vibration power (BF2142 booted to 'join game' in 70s vs 80s on the raptor). I would definitely wait until the prices for a 64GB came down to $300 or so before using one as a boot drive.
I use VMWare workstation a great deal, although I havent tried it yet this would be another application which would benefit greatly since it uses a pseudo-disk.
The disk is definitely going into production immediately on the MySQL server, and I am considering getting one as my primary Linux development workstation disk as 32 GB goes a long way in that application, and I have never seen a Linux desktop perform like that. Plus I do a lot more disk-intensive stuff in development vs web surfing etc on my notebook or desktop PC.
There is no argument IMHO - mechanicals are a dead-end technology as a notebook/desktop/server boot and application disk as soon as the prices come down. Reply
bji - Wednesday, March 14, 2012 - linkYou ended up being correct on all counts: 4 and a half years later and SSDs are making major inroads in every place you predicted they would. You can get a 120 GB SSD now for under $200 and it blows away the 32 GB Mtron you tested in every performance category. Reply
Googer - Thursday, August 16, 2007 - linkCould you possibly revisit this article at a later date and post some Mtron vs Raptor RAID 0 benchmarks?
Also for the enterprise market and serious enthusiast, comparing this SSD to a Seagate 15k.5. Which would be the better value, 15K SAS or SATA SSD? Reply
erikejw - Thursday, August 16, 2007 - linkPlease get another one and test it in Raid 0. Reply
Verdant - Wednesday, August 15, 2007 - linkI would kill for one of these for my tablet, that would really affect battery life....and all the other good looking benefits. On the other hand i don't see working within the SSD capacity limitations, and i don't see spending nearly as much on an hd as the machine itself. I am hoping next refresh (2-3 years)something like this will meet my needs. Reply
Frumious1 - Thursday, August 16, 2007 - linkI don't think an SSD in a notebook is really going to affect battery life that much. There was a laptop review that made this point just the other day: http://www.anandtech.com/mobile/showdoc.aspx?i=306...">see the last 3 paragraphs. If you have a low power laptop, it could probably cut 1-2W power and add maybe 15 minutes of battery life. 2.5" drives also aren't particularly hot, so it won't make a huge difference there. Now, performance would be faster for sure, since laptop drives are also slow, but $1500 or whatever for one of these puppies? I'll pass! Reply
ciparis - Wednesday, August 15, 2007 - linkI may have missed it in the article -- was there a discussion of Windows boot times? That plus hibernate / sleep would be interesting. More comprehensive application launch time comparisons would be nice as well. Reply
PandaBear - Wednesday, August 15, 2007 - linkWith this kind of performance I think the target is not laptop but rather database servers that need very very fast seq and random access. They can afford a couple of these drives, easily.
But then again, will a RAM based device like Gigabyte's work better? and how long would they last (i.e. how good is MTRON's wear leveling?) Reply
brundlefly - Saturday, August 18, 2007 - linkActually I have this disk and it outperforms every mechanical I have ever used in every scenario (server, database, notebook, desktop) (and I have 15k Fujitsu MAS UltraSCSI's, Raptors, and Hitachi 7k200). See my post below about MySQL performance, which is why I got the drive.
There is no reason or desire to have a mechanical device in any computer, it doesn't even make any sense, its just the best solution weve had until the price, performance, size, and durability of SSD matured.
BTW MTRON states you can write or erase 50GB/day for 140 years before any cells turn read-only. Thats longer then the MTBF for a raptor.
StraightPipe - Wednesday, August 15, 2007 - linkI'd love to see how one of these drives performs in multi-access enviroments. Can you run a server test or two (RAID would also be nice) to see how they do?
I can't see too many home users picking these up for their desktops, but it's always nice to have another option. the 3.5" even goes to 128MB, it's about the same as my 160GB Raptor. Price is still way high, but like all good memory, it only gets cheaper :)
Right now the pricing is set so it is most viable for the enterprise market. Reply
StraightPipe - Wednesday, August 15, 2007 - linkFrom the Tom's article listed above:
"Writing to lots of different cells slows the SSD down so much that even conventional 2.5" hard drives offer better I/O and file-write performance. "
So this is probably not what you want for many server applications.
For a webserver this fast read, no write scenario may be ideal.

EODetroit - Wednesday, August 15, 2007 - link... It might be interesting to compare the speeds here with those from Gigabyte's old I-Ram.
iwodo - Wednesday, August 15, 2007 - linkWith 40% price decrease per year as well as improve in transfer speed. It will only take 2-3 years before the drive become affordable.
But i keep on wondering. Let say I need 10GB for OS. 10GB for Application. I still have 12GB for Swap Space and other uses. 32GB for basic usage is actually more then enough if we dont store any Music or Video.
Personally i would like to see Normal Hard Drive gets much bigger Capacity ( 2 - 4 TB Per Hard Drive ) and move them out of the Main Box to external storage via eSATA. While the Main performance Hard drive will be a SSD based Hard Drive. Reply

We doubt SSD products will make significant headway into the desktop market over the next three years due to the continued explosion of storage space requirements for digital entertainment.
I agree that it will remain a niche market product, but I reckon that the main reason will be cost per GB. I wonder if the average consumer's space requirement has exploded much past the requirement added by Vista: how many really rip audio/video to their HD?
Granted, I am a space hog, and I happen to rip at least my CDs to lossless - but I do not know many (outside enthusiast forums) who do that. From a performance enthusiast point of view, especially those who will afford the 'best', I reckon that SSD may overtake the Raptor as the choice for OS drive within the next three years. Those users could always grab one or more TB size HD for their multimedia needs. From a silent PC enthusiast point of view, going by this review, SSD is a non brainer - the more dedicated silencers are already using 2.5" drive in their desktop. Reply
mostlyprudent - Wednesday, August 15, 2007 - linkI hope Gary's 3 year prediction is as wrong as AT's (and just about everyone else's) prediction about DDR3 speeds and latencies! I am quite impressed by what has happened in SSD technology over the last year or so. Reply
AnnihilatorX - Wednesday, August 15, 2007 - linkWell I do rip loseless audio from CDs. On some types of music I can hear differences betwween mp3 and ape
32GB is just enough for a Windows installation plus few applications
It's best to store multimedia files to a HDD Reply
yyrkoon - Thursday, August 16, 2007 - link80MB/s sustained is more than enough for video editing, and I am not sure you guys understand this or not, but until now, this is the first test I have personally seen that the SSD comes this close to overall standard HDD in performance. The Raptor may peak higher, but if I am reading these benchmarks correctly, this drive is FAST. Take the sub milisecond access times, and you have something worth talking about.
As for Windows boot times, I think if you compared this even to a Raptor, you would notice a diference in bootup times. Windows may not need much more than ~12MB/s transfers, but the very low access times will show a noticable difference. Maybe only a second or two, but in Windows boot times, this is outstanding given the current performance of all current HDDs.
32GB is just enough for a Windows installation plus few applications
Uh, WinXP only needs ~1.5GB-4GB for a base install, this gives plenty of room for other applications. I do not know how other people install their OSes, but this is perfect for me, since I keep all my data(important or not) on a different drive from the OS anyhow. This SSD would probably serve great as a Photoshop scratch disk as well . . . Reply
GlassHouse69 - Wednesday, August 15, 2007 - linkWindows itself doesnt need a fast drive. I load up windows 1x every 2-3 weeks. It is on 24/7. The swap file is affected, but with 2 gb of ram, dual core, xp pro, O&O defrag and no random crap programs loaded into memory unnecessarily, I never see my hd tic when I am using windows.
Now, network transfers it can show, but that is for 1 hour here and there, maybe 3-4x a month. Really, what the fast hd is used for is encoding or decoding, compressing and uncompressing, and, most importantly, games. There you would never dream of using anything less than 100 gigs of space. So, this thing is completely useless. yay! I mean, unless you make a partition for your favorite games and another for some ripping usage, 32 gb is next to useless.
it is a great write up though. nicely done Reply
AnnihilatorX - Friday, August 17, 2007 - linkNot entirely true
Although Windows at run-time does not need a fast drive,
Windows at boot-time and applications at load-time do improve a lot
Windows startup is 2x faster on SSD
That alone is the biggest selling point of SSD Reply
Calin - Wednesday, August 15, 2007 - linkYou might want to try a quick and dirty benchmark in Linux, maybe the situation is simply related to drivers. And maybe some quick and dirty benchmarks in XP versus Vista, just to see if the Intel chipset is slower in all configurations Reply
Epyon - Wednesday, August 15, 2007 - linkThanks for the review. Its great to have some concrete numbers to base opinions on SSDs. Reply

In case you are planning to purchase an auto, you would necessarily have to look at a few important determinants to learn the perfect vehicle for your requirements. It is no secret that a number of cars are less expensive than others. As previously mentioned, convertible cars vary in proportion from two-seat roadsters to roomier four-seaters. They are without a doubt one of the top choices you can make when it comes to pure enjoyment while driving. Since gas-powered cars were around for a number of decades, there are lots of shops which sell car accessories. In case you are thinking they are a few of the world's greatest cars then you're correct.
Cars have turned into an essential portion of human daily life. Purchasing a used car gets rid of this part of the ownership approach. If you're also looking to get a used auto, you should check some of the most essential aspects before closing the offer. It has proven rather difficult to locate cheap used cars offline, and it is even harder to locate them online.
Cars are extremely heavy objects. Furthermore, if you want to sell an auto, the eBay motor vehicle auction is an excellent spot for you too. It is necessary to have your vehicle in top-shape all the opportunity to prevent inconvenience for you and to protect against a huge sum of money from visiting the automobile mechanic just due to your lack of care for your car. Consider what kind of luxury car may be best for you. Luxury cars are costly since they have plenty of extras. So unless you are able to go as much as a million on a single luxury car, it's not worth asking whether you need to buy a single or not. Should you be contemplating purchasing the ideal luxury car your money can purchase, the very first question is the way much money you will spend.
In case you have been contemplating getting a vehicle, you may therefore think about buying yourself a Porsche. You can occasionally acquire next to new cars at quite cheap rates. Whether or not you want to purchase your first car or within a mood to alter the old one, this automotive sale has something for each auto lover. Those wanting the very best mileage cars can select hybrids.
After you've entered your vehicle, you can initiate the engine by pressing the engine begin button. It would be best to understand what you are genuinely searching for before purchasing the vehicle. Because there aren't any water-powered cars in the marketplace, scientists are working very difficult to discover methods to economically mass-produce these cars.
Now in regards to purchasing the car usually those which don't run will be your finest deals and you are even allowed to receive a freebie if your lucky. Today, with the majority of the folks striving to have a luxurious and tasteful car, Infiniti car is the perfect choice with significant tech engineering and superior performance. Folks who don't know a lot about Infiniti cars they're advised to visit its showrooms.

HAMPSTEAD – The Budget Committee has made its decisions on recommending or not recommending school district articles for the March warrant. In every case, the committee voted not to recommend the article.
Meeting Tuesday evening, Jan. 14, following the School Board public hearings, the committee decided as follows:
• Article 2, a 10-year bond for $6,180,520 for Phase I of Hampstead Central School and Hampstead Middle School's Renovation and Construction Project, with $133,911.27 to be raised and appropriated for the first year's interest payment on the bond. The committee voted unanimously not to recommend it.
• Article 3, the Operating Budget of $23,863,412 with a default amount of $23,853,314. The committee voted 4-1 against recommending, with only Chris Howe voting to recommend.
• Article 4, the School Administrative Unit (SAU) Budget of $1,467,024, of which amount the Hampstead portion is $392,283, with a default amount of $322,187, the committee unanimously voted against recommending.
• Article 5, the Capital Reserve Fund, asking voters to approve $75,000 to be placed into the School Renovation and Reconstruction and Capital Improvement Capital Reserve Fund. Proctor Wentworth was the lone member voting to recommend.
At that meeting, Budget Committee member Matt Murphy also gave the committee the option to reconsider Article 8 on the Town Warrant – the Recreation Commission's request for $24,500 to build a basketball court. Murphy took this action in light of information provided by the Recreation Committee at the Jan. 13 selectman's meeting, as reported last week by the Tri-Town Times.
A motion to reconsider was made by Steve Londrigan and seconded by Wentworth and a discussion ensued, as the members looked at the documents the Recreation Commission had provided.
All five members then voted not to recommend the warrant article. The previous vote on this article by the committee was 4-1 not to recommend, with Londrigan saying he had insufficient information to vote either for or against it.


text: Report has WVU to Big 12; breaking down numbers By Mitch Vingle October 20, 2011 Story Share PERHAPS THE No. 1 wish for all following or involved in the national conference realignment story is for it to end.For those making moves to move. For certainty to replace uncertainty.Perhaps soon that wish will be granted.Today, we might know for sure the fate of Missouri, which could move from the Big 12 to the Southeastern Conference. All indications are the Tigers will be moving. That will probably slam the door on any hopes West Virginia had of filling the SEC opening.All attention will then turn to the Big 12 - and, in these parts, its interest in WVU.According to a blog post from Mark Blaudschun of the Boston Globe on Thursday, Missouri will indeed leave the Big 12, and "according to sources in the Big 12, the target team to replace the Tigers is West Virginia."According to sources in the Big 12 and Big East," Blaudschun continued, "the Big 12 expansion will hold at 10 teams for the time being."When reached by the Gazette on Friday, WVU athletic director Oliver Luck would not comment on the report.Would it make sense? Yes. Is it etched in stone? No.nnOK, so in recent months we've examined West Virginia University's position within the realignment shift.We've awaited answers. Hopefully, those answers are near.Until all are in, however, here's a little something to chew on. While geographically WVU should be moving to the Atlantic Coast Conference or SEC (if not remaining in the Big East), the Big 12 isn't a bad fit on many levels. According to data from the U.S. Department of Education, West Virginia's athletic budget in 2009-10 was $56,607,917.Within the Big East, that placed the Mountaineers fourth, if you count Notre Dame (not a football member) at $76 million. Louisville ($61 million) and Connecticut ($58 million) are the only other ones to have larger budgets than WVU. WVU spokesman Mike Fragale confirmed the number."We always range from $56 million to $60 million," Fragale said. "That's usually what we need [in grand total expenses]. I've never heard it over $60 million."Will it grow to over $60 million? Perhaps, but that's the highest it's ever been. We've gotten a lot of bang for our buck."If you've ever wondered, though, how far that buck would stretch in the other discussed conferences, here are answers.Within the SEC, West Virginia's budget would rank 10th of the 13 or, if you want to jump and include Missouri, 14 schools. WVU actually had a higher budget than Mizzou ($53.2 million) for 2009-10. Ditto WVU versus Vanderbilt ($46 million), Mississippi ($44 million) and Mississippi State ($36 million). But the list of SEC schools with higher budgets than the Mountaineers is long: Florida ($105 million), LSU ($102 million), Tennessee ($97 million), Auburn ($90 million), Alabama ($85 million), South Carolina ($78 million), Georgia and Kentucky ($76 million), Arkansas ($71 million) and incoming Texas A&M ($69 million).Within the Big 12, as it is now shaped, WVU would have the fifth largest budget. Make that the sixth if you want to throw Louisville, another potential member, into the mix.Texas, as one might imagine, blows all other Big 12 members out of the water with a $114 million budget. Oklahoma is second at $89 million.Also ahead of, but close to, WVU are Kansas and Oklahoma State, both at $60 million.The Mountaineers top Baylor ($54 million), incoming TCU ($52 million), Iowa State ($47 million), Texas Tech ($43 million) and Kansas State ($41 million).(In case you're curious, the highest athletic budgets overall are at Texas, Florida, Ohio State and LSU. All are over $100 million. WVU ranks No. 41. A surprise? Wisconsin at No. 7 at $90 million.)West Virginia would also be a better fit for the Big 12 in regard to facilities. The Mountaineers' basketball Coliseum stacks up nicely nationwide. The school would have to upgrade facilities for Olympic sports.Remember, though, this conference realignment shift is all about football. So let's compare football stadiums.Within the Southeastern Conference, Milan Puskar Stadium would rank near the bottom if you go by seating capacity. The 60,000-seat arena would top but those at Mississippi State (55,082) and Vanderbilt (39,790).Missouri, that potential new member, has a stadium that holds 71,004. Nine others (including Texas A&M) hold more than that.Two (Tennessee and Alabama) seat over 100,000. Two (Georgia and LSU) seat over 92,000. Four (Florida, Auburn, A&M and South Carolina) seat over 80,000. Arkansas's stadium holds 76,000.WVU's stadium compares much more favorably within the Big 12. There, one stadium (that of Texas) holds over 100,000 and one (Oklahoma) holds over 82,000.The rest are either roughly the same size as Puskar Stadium (Texas Tech at 60,454; Oklahoma State at 60,218), or smaller (Iowa State at 55,000; Kansas State at 50,071; Kansas at 50,071; TCU at 44,008).In sum, a move to the SEC would put WVU into an economic athletic arms race that would be tough to handle. Within the Big 12, the Mountaineers will never rival Texas or Oklahoma financially, but it would be a better fit.Reach Mitch Vingle at 304-348-4827, firstname.lastname@example.com or follow him at twitter.com/MitchVingle.

Model-Driven Software Development (MDSD) is currently a highly regarded development paradigm among developers and researchers. With the advent of OMG's MDA and Microsoft's Software Factories, the MDSD approach has moved to the centre of the programmer's attention, becoming the focus of conferences such as OOPSLA, JAOO and OOP.
MDSD is about using domain-specific languages to create models that express application structure or behaviour in an efficient and domain-specific way. These models are subsequently transformed into executable code by a sequence of model transformations.
This practical guide for software architects and developers is peppered with practical examples and extensive case studies. International experts deliver:

The bottom of the dress deems it suitable work attire when paired with a cropped blazer or cardigan. After work, lose the cardy and add heels! Arden B,

Reading 27c513 with 27C512 eprom reader
Hi all
I need to read a 27C513 chip, archive, and burn a copy but my Willem Eprom programmer doesn't list 27C513 as one of the chips it will program.
The card that takes 27C513 also works with 27C512 so two chips' pin out must be pretty close.
If you have any info or advice, I would appreciate it.
