At least one person (administrator) should be assigned the task of setting up ArchiOffice. If you are an administrator, you might want to go through the ArchiOffice Getting Started Guide to help you get started with the program.
Setting up ArchiOffice involves the following steps:
Step 1 - Install ArchiOffice
Follow the directions to install the software on your server and client machines.
Step 2 - License ArchiOffice
Your license information is sent to you shortly after purchasing the software. You will be prompted to enter and validate your license key after installing ArchiOffice. You can also enter that information in the license area of Preferences.
Step 3 - Set Up System Preferences
ArchiOffice has many preferences you can configure for the program to suit your firm's specific needs, but there are some preferences that must be configured for ArchiOffice to function properly.
System Preferences: Enter company information, configure default system settings, and set up your company logo.
Set your group security: Set up workgroups and apply the necessary privileges to access ArchiOffice.
Users: After successfully installing ArchiOffice, user accounts need to be set up. This involves entering user details and setting up default setting, assigning users to Work Groups, and setting up all ArchiOffice users (that is, creating login credentials, security privileges, etc.).
Contacts: Specify defaults for new contacts added to the system.
Projects: Specify defaults for new projects added to the system, including the default project numbering. Modify the default phases and job codes to suit your own project needs and modify the default project milestones. In addition you need to build project teams to which users can be assigned and modify default tasks (that is, Tasks) for your project phases.
RFPs: Specify the default RFP numbering, modify the default phases and job codes to suit your own RFP needs, and modify the default milestones to suit your own RFP needs. In addition, you need to Build RFP Teams so you can quickly assign groups of users to a new RFP and modify the default Tasks for your RFP Phases.
Documents: Specify document storage and link paths, set up the default document types that ArchiOffice recognizes, customize ArchiOffice templates filing system. ArchiOffice provides more than 70 Word templates that can be modified so they include your logo, corporate font, privacy notices, etc. You can even create your own templates and add them to ArchiOffice.
Billing: Set some of the default accounting preferences for the system. Enter the G/L account numbers, or account names, for your accounting software. Setup a default tax model for all your projects, if necessary (no tax is the default). Specify a path where draft and finalized invoices will be stored.
Step 4 - Set Up Clients
Project related contacts, including vendors, clients, and consultants need to either be created new or synced in from Outlook, Entourage or Apple Contacts.
Step 5 - Set Up Existing Projects
Everybody has existing projects that are work-in-progress. Set these up, as well as your new projects in ArchiOffice so your employees can continue working on them. You can also set up internal projects and RFP projects.

text: By BOBBY WARRENStaff WriterWOOSTER -- The Wayne County commissioners sounded the warning early, about four years ago, concerning the need to not only keep spending under control, but to make cuts.The cuts were not always easy. For some offices, it meant doing the same amount of work, or more, but with fewer people as some positions were eliminated through attrition. Others were laid off, most notably Sheriff's Office deputies who patrolled the roads of Wayne County.In 2008, elected officials and department heads were asked to cut 10 percent from their budgets. It was 13 percent in 2009. Then, in 2010, because of how the days fell, county offices had to contend with 27 pay periods in a year instead of the normal 26, which created a further financial strain.However, with all of the cuts made by the elected officials and department heads, Wayne County was able to remain relatively intact for 2012, even though it was facing steeper cuts from the state."I thought the process went well (for the 2012 budget), other than there was no money for pay increases," Commissioner Jim Carmichael said. The commissioners met with officials in June and July and explained where they projected revenue to be for the year, and the main message was they were trying to maintain spending at 2011 levels."A lot of the officials did the heavy lifting early on," Commissioner Scott Wiggam said.Signs of hope emerged in 2011 as sales tax revenue increased by about 7 percent. Companies began seeing business and orders start turning around in the second half of the year. While the labor force was dwindling some, the unemployment rate steadily dropped in Wayne County, posting better numbers than at the state or federal levels.However, the county still felt a pinch from Gov. John Kasich's budget.Ostensibly, Kasich's budget erased an $8 billion structural imbalance over the two-year period covered. In simple numbers, Kasich's budget contained $55 billion in general revenue fund spending, compared to $50 million in former Gov. Ted Strickland's last biennial budget.When Kasich visited Wayne County in March to speak at the annual meeting of the Wayne Economic Development Council he was asked about the increase in general revenue fund spending. At the time, the governor said there the two budgets could not be compared like that because the Kasich budget moved some items that had been taken out of the general fund and put them back into it and vice versa.Lt. Gov. Mary Taylor essentially said the same thing on a later visit to Wayne County.But one thing was certain with the new state budget: Local governmental entities were going to receive less money. The bulk of this money being lost was due to a reduction in the local government fund, a pool of money distributed to political subdivisions for doing work on behalf of the state. It is sometimes viewed as revenue sharing.When commissioners Ann Obrecht, Wiggam and Carmichael started meeting with elected officials and department heads in late summer, they started to prepare them for the state cuts. The figure presented in August was $865,000 in lost revenue from the state.So, while sales tax revenue was on the climb, it seemed like everything else was falling. Interest income, which once stood at more than $2 million annually, has been steadily declining. There was a time a few years ago when the commissioners would not budget more than $800,000 of interest income to fund ongoing operations because it was not viewed as reliable or consistent income. In 2010, the county barely received $800,000. In 2011, the figure dropped to $555,000. And for this year? The county's investment adviser, Debbie Newman, is predicting only $325,000.The county's budget for 2012 also assumed health insurance costs would rise by more than $400,000.But, everyone working together, making the necessary cuts and holding the line on spending helped the county get through some challenging times, Carmichael said."(In 2011), we created a surplus to carry us into 2012," Wiggam said previously. "We did it without raising taxes in the most challenging economic times since the Great Depression." Even if sales tax revenue continues to climb, the future is still uncertain for the commissioners, mainly because of not knowing what will happen with the state's local government fund. Even though no state official has said it will go away, Carmichael is not so certain. He has repeatedly quoted Kasich's budget document, which stated the federal government was wise to get rid of revenue sharing years ago.Wiggam said in terms of revenue outpacing spending, 2011 was a good year. However, his projections show it will take some effort to keep expenditures below revenue for 2012."I don't think we're out of the woods yet," Carmichael said.Reporter Bobby Warren can be reached at 330-287-1639 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Have you ever formatted a USB drive? Well, whether it was on purpose or not, it would be my bet that some of you ran into a problem while doing so. Perhaps the USB drive wouldn't function at all. That's a pretty common one, but don't worry about it too much. There is a simple fix for this problematic situation and it involves using the tools provided with any Windows operating system.
Now, just to be sure, double click on the My Computer icon on your desktop and then click on your USB drive. For me, it's drive E:, but yours could be different. When you click on that icon, you should see a pop up that says something very similar to this:
Click Yes and then you should see this box:
If you have gotten this far and everything has gone as I have stated, a solution is right around the corner. The next thing to do is make sure you are signed in under your Administrator account, as you will be using the Administrative Tools. Once you are, go to Start, Control Panel (make sure you have it set to the classic view option), Administrative Tools, Computer Management.
Now, what you must do is click on Disk Management.
The screen you will see is shown above and all the information you need is on the bottom right. So, where it indicates your USB drive letter, click on it.
Click on New Partition and then go through the Wizard steps.
Just in case your Wizard allows you to select any other options, make sure you select Primary Partition. (A Primary Partition is basically, the main storage area).
Also, be sure to make sure you select FAT32 as the File System. This just makes it so everything is stored in the proper format. Once done, click Finish. The USB drive should be formatted once the screen pops up saying that it has been
formatted. To test the USB drive to make sure it works properly, put a couple of files onto the drive. Then unplug the drive, but make sure you do it properly, using the Safely Remove Hardware icon in your taskbar ().
Take the USB drive to a different computer or just plug it back in. Then wait and see if the files are still there and if they open up. If they do, congratulations! You have just fixed your USB drive. If it doesn't work, contact the maker of your USB drive. Often times, if formatting doesn't work, the company requires there be certain drivers on the drive itself. Confusing as this may be, it is critical for the USB drive to have them.
I hope this works for you! And the next time you format, for whatever reason, make sure you back up the data on your USB drive first. Enjoy this one!

IP Panel: What keeps you awake at night?
August 11th, 2016 by Peggy Aycinena
As background, consider that the massive amounts of IP involved in building a modern SoC may translate into IP vendors losing millions of dollars if their IP is used therein without proper licensing. At the same time, semiconductor companies also wrestle with troubling issues if their engineers accidentally reuse a core without proper licensing, possibly exposing their employers to huge liabilities. The ESD Alliance event in September promises to address these thorny problems.
Moderated by industry leader Warren Savage – formerly CEO of IPextreme, but now GM of IP at Silvaco with the acquisition announced just prior to DAC – the evening's two panelists come from interesting backgrounds.

Lanza Panel at DAC: Democratization is not Open Source
July 14th, 2016 by Peggy Aycinena
The session was titled "Daring to Move to Open Source" and was described thusly: "The emerging Internet of Things market is destined to upend that time-tested 'advanced-node' model, as developers opt for older, less costly process technologies, using commodity design tools and selecting proven IP blocks to quickly and efficiently assemble chips. As demand for IoT devices grows exponentially, might open source EDA tools and IP become viable, or even the winning combination that enables the low-cost design of an IoT SoC?"
Here are some soundbites from the panelists.

CEDA Panel: Covering new ground at DAC 2016
June 9th, 2016 by Peggy Aycinena
Up until 7 o'clock on June 5, 2016, a conversation about career perspectives was such a non-technical topic, it could only be found in Marie Pistilli's beloved workshop, a venue where work/life balance, Academia vs. Industry, and how to promote your brand within the organization were thoroughly discussed every year for 15 years at DAC.
Now IEEE's Council on EDA, CEDA, has made the bold decision to pick up where Marie's workshop left off, sponsoring this week's event and broadening the audience and the appeal.
Joyner had four people on his panel, a generous two hours to hash out various universal questions, and enough of a sense of humor to offer to wear the necktie he'd brought with him to add gravitas, or not to wear the tie to appear hipster and cool. He quickly decided to go without the tie, and the ensuing conversation went something like this.

DAC 2016: Til the Bagpipes Play
June 2nd, 2016 by Peggy Aycinena
Then from 10:30 to noon genuflect to Academia and check out 'Accelerated Simulation for Circuit Reliability and Stability'. With speakers from Texas A&M, USC, Brown, and Michigan Tech. If you attend, you'll learn what the future holds for simulation: power supply stability, soft error in logic circuits, thermal noise in ultra-low voltage designs, and the sparsification of spectral graphs used in various design problems. Nobody from industry is speaking, so if you want to get in on the ground floor commercializing some of this stuff, sit in the front row.
Life is Short: Carpe Eruditio at DAC 2016
May 26th, 2016 by Peggy Aycinena
On Sunday, June 5th, my two favorites are: The Workshop on Design Automation for Cyber-Physical Systems, and The Workshop on Computing in Heterogeneous, Autonomous 'N' Goal-Oriented Environments. Both of these all-day events feature experts from academia and industry, most speaking for at least 30 minutes. The topics will be very technical and the schedules allow for detailed presentations. Of course, this doesn't mean the other workshops on Sunday don't have great merit, but the two I have identified look to be particularly rich opportunities for learning.
Sunday evening, for the first time, there will also be a 2-hour panel focused on Career Perspectives in EDA, a discussion sponsored by CEDA. Although many will be obliged to attend networking dinners on Sunday evening, or will still be busy setting up booths for Monday morning's Exhibit Hall opening, attending this Career Panel seems an opportunity not to be missed, particularly as it will be moderated by the supremely knowledgeable Bill Joyner from SRC. Admittedly, this is not a technical session, but the implications for the industry are profound. [File under the heading: 'Concern for an Aging Industry']

Government agencies that use VoIP like the return on investment, but acknowledge that implementing these solutions involves more than buying a bunch of IP phones and plugging them in. Making sure the network is ready to handle the increased traffic is critical, observers say, and that can turn into a hefty expense up front.
The price tag can be daunting, but current VoIP users say it's worth it.
Worth Every Penny
The Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry (DLI) took an inside-out approach. First the department deployed VoIP in its central office -- with 300 employees -- two years ago, said Cindy Valentine, CIO of the DLI. It then outfitted seven other DLI offices with VoIP in June. Overall, the DLI deployed 450 IP phones, she said, producing substantial savings in several key areas.
The DLI's monthly phone bill dropped, and the agency consolidated functions.
"Before we started the IP phone system in the main office, our phone bill was about $21,700 per month," said Mary Benner, project manager of the DLI's VoIP implementation. "Our bill following the installation was about $13,400. Those [monthly bills] include costs we were paying for two small call centers we administered externally through the Department of Administration, which runs our central mail hub and is the traditional telephony provider."
Before VoIP, the DLI paid the Department of Administration $23 per month per phone line for telephony services, which included basic Centrex and voicemail. The DLI now administers its own telephony services and pays just 22 cents per month, per line.
To replace the five phone systems in the central office with a single phone system, the DLI initially looked at traditional telephony solutions, but was soon convinced IP telephony would provide cost savings over time. With the old phone system, Valentine said, the DLI spent a minimum of $100 per employee per move -- a cost that's now eliminated. Employees who move need only unplug their IP phones from their old locations and plug them in at their new cubicles or offices. There's no need for a technician to switch phone wiring to accommodate the move.
"It really is the gift that keeps giving," Valentine said. "Once the initial investment has been made, the savings just keep on coming -- the flexibility this has given us, and the avoidance of toll charges between our office in St. Paul and our offices in the rest of the state. The savings are only going to be more impressive over time."
The DLI expects to save an additional $3,000 to $4,000 per month as a result of the seven satellite DLI offices going live with VoIP, because calls from those offices to the central office don't travel over a carrier's phone lines, saving the agency long distance charges.
"If you work in government, you're always conscious of spending money," Benner said. "With these folks, they didn't contact each other by phone without thinking, 'This is costing me per minute.' The fact that we're able to call each other for free now allows much greater communication between the offices. It's really an inclusion of the far-flung offices with the central office in a way we haven't had before."
Though the transition has been good to the DLI, the agency had to spend money to make money -- something that's more difficult for state and local governments to do now.
The initial out-of-pocket expense for the VoIP system was $435,000 for hardware, software and services, Valentine said.
"Ironically, when we put the phone

In general you need to manually set the PlotRange for both x and y directions
to insure that the "context" stays fixed. To make the image larger than the
default use the option ImageSize. Compare animations for
Table[Plot[x, {x, 0, xmax}], {xmax, 1, 10}];
Table[Plot[x, {x, 0, xmax},
PlotRange -> {{0,10},{0,10}},
ImageSize -> 350], {xmax, 1, 10}];

Naomi Wente '13, Dodge Center, receives Newman Civic Fellow Award from Campus Compact
Posted by Judy Korn on Monday, May. 2, 2011
Campus Compact has announced that Naomi Wente, Dodge Center, a student at the University of Minnesota, Morris has been honored as a Newman Civic Fellow. The Newman Civic Fellows Awards recognize inspiring college student leaders who have demonstrated an investment in finding solutions for challenges facing communities throughout the country.
From 30 states, college and university presidents nominated the best-of-the-best: promising college student leaders who demonstrate an investment in finding solutions for challenges facing communities throughout the country. Through service, research, and advocacy, these Newman Civic Fellows are making the most of their college experiences to better understand themselves, the root causes of social issues, and effective mechanisms for creating lasting change.
"These students represent the next generation of public problem solvers and civic leaders. They serve as national examples of the role that higher education can—and does play in building a better world," explains Campus Compact President Maureen F. Curley.
Wente, a second-year student at Morris, is a student leader active around the issues of local foods and human rights. For the last two years, Wente has been integral in bringing campus and community together in the movement toward more sustainable food production in the community. Recently, she was named president of the Pomme De Terre Food Co-op, a local nonprofit. In addition, Wente continues to lead "One Toilet at a Time," an effort she began at age 14 to provide Cambodian girls with access to safe sanitation and water.
Dr. Frank Newman—one of the founders of Campus Compact—had a tremendous impact on American education and its role in the development of citizens who are eager and prepared to make a difference. He dedicated his life to creating systemic change through education reform, and this first group of Newman Civic Fellows would have inspired him. They are reflections and affirmations of his life's work.
Campus Compact is a national coalition of more than 1,100 college and university presidents—representing some 6 million students—who are committed to fulfilling the civic purposes of higher education to improve community life and to educate students for civic and social responsibility. Through the Newman Civic Fellows Awards, college and university presidents acknowledge students with the ability and motivation to create lasting change in our communities.

Maupassant's Short Stories Vol. 3 HTML version
A Wedding Gift
For a long time Jacques Bourdillere had sworn that he would never marry, but he
suddenly changed his mind. It happened suddenly, one summer, at the seashore.
One morning as he lay stretched out on the sand, watching the women coming out of the
water, a little foot had struck him by its neatness and daintiness. He raised his eyes and
was delighted with the whole person, although in fact he could see nothing but the ankles
and the head emerging from a flannel bathrobe carefully held closed. He was supposed to
be sensual and a fast liver. It was therefore by the mere grace of the form that he was at
first captured. Then he was held by the charm of the young girl's sweet mind, so simple
and good, as fresh as her cheeks and lips.
He was presented to the family and pleased them. He immediately fell madly in love.
When he saw Berthe Lannis in the distance, on the long yellow stretch of sand, he would
tingle to the roots of his hair. When he was near her he would become silent, unable to
speak or even to think, with a kind of throbbing at his heart, and a buzzing in his ears, and
a bewilderment in his mind. Was that love?
He did not know or understand, but he had fully decided to have this child for his wife.
Her parents hesitated for a long time, restrained by the young man's bad reputation. It was
said that he had an old sweetheart, one of these binding attachments which one always
believes to be broken off and yet which always hold.
Besides, for a shorter or longer period, he loved every woman who came within reach of
his lips.
Then he settled down and refused, even once, to see the one with whom he had lived for
so long. A friend took care of this woman's pension and assured her an income. Jacques
paid, but he did not even wish to hear of her, pretending even to ignore her name. She
wrote him letters which he never opened. Every week he would recognize the clumsy
writing of the abandoned woman, and every week a greater anger surged within him
against her, and he would quickly tear the envelope and the paper, without opening it,
without reading one single line, knowing in advance the reproaches and complaints
which it contained.
As no one had much faith in his constancy, the test was prolonged through the winter,
and Berthe's hand was not granted him until the spring. The wedding took place in Paris
at the beginning of May.
The young couple had decided not to take the conventional wedding trip, but after a little
dance for the younger cousins, which would not be prolonged after eleven o'clock, in
order that this day of lengthy ceremonies might not be too tiresome, the young pair were

Had a bunch of runs with a friend today in his new 350Z Roadster. So I'm assuming that I'd get him off the line and he would start gaining on me... and I'm assuming that he would have no problem with me from a roll (he's got an auto). I was wrong about some of that.
From a dig, I got him no problem as expected.
But from a roll, what happened was we were basically neck and neck up until about 60 mph, then I started to pull on him. Between roughly 60 - 80 mph he was at my rear bumper. This is not what I expected... felt good though . We repeated this a few times with the same results each time.
He's stock and I've got a turbo back exhaust with a Prodrive.

Way to go Arizona!
A) Be a resident alien in the the US by way of AZ through lawful and legal channels, AZ embraces you with open arms.
B) Be a resident alien in the US by way of AZ unlawfully and illegally but choose to begin going through appropriate channels toward becoming lawful & legal, AZ supports your decision to become legal and will embrace you upon lawful return.
C) If A or B is not applicable or of interest to you as an alien residing in the US by way of AZ, then on July 29th you are advised by AZ to relocate to CA or some other state that will embrace and support you.
To my mind the AZ law by intent and stated application is simple as A, B, C and $1, $2, $3.
BTW this law is not applicable just to persons from the nation of Mexico, but to all and any foreign national of which here in the US we have very many of every race, nationality and reason to flee their own country to come here albeit as in defiance and disregard for our Federal laws.

We _all_ know someone who is here illegally, even as they might not be brown skinned as from MX and/or have a sur name that includes the letter 'Z'.
People here from Ireland, Australia, the continent of Africa, India, Chile, Brsil and Spain too.
Persons from Canada (!), the UK, Russia, China, Germany and Japan too along with the entirety of the Middle East including Tunisia and out to Greece.
People who are our neighbors, classmates at college (unlawful over stay of a student visa entry is a notorious and long time route for entry to the US), co-workers at every imaginable non-govt. non-contract employee job imaginable regardless of job collar color, style or type.
They are everywhere.
When I was in college I used to work under a grown man who was such a person as here illegally from Morocco.
It was an open non-secret among everyone at my employer that he was who he was, and folk used to kid him about don't make me mad or I'll call immigration.
Of course nobody ever did so. But then nobody got mad at/about him either (!).
All manner of people come to the US, as foreign nationals choosing to circumvent our national AND state laws as unlawful/illegal aliens to take up residence here.
The reasons always are varied but the bottom line same. Illegal and unlawful.
Not at all being a xenophobe, isolationist nor being wholly ignoring or uncaring toward the often terrible conditions that real human beings are fleeing from so as to come to the US seeking a little compassion as well as shelter and safe harbor.
But we do have a process for this, that is no different than that of most any other country including first worlders such as the much more stringent UK (!), along with our friends Canada, Italy, Germany, Australia and Japan. They all have laws toward handling and allowance of aliens as into their border. Even US originating aliens regardless of race or skin tone (hispanics are caucasoids and as such they come in every color from blanco to brown).
I wish people would get off of the 'racial discrimination' boat.
Making that call, IMHO as a person who has been a life long racial and social minority and has seen & experienced first hand real and actual racial discrimination, diminishes the meaning and reduces that of other such cases having zero relevance to this specific bill/law and initiative by intent.
This law is NOT racist nor is it intended at all to endorse or support racism.
Further it does not allow same to be applied.
Meanwhile as an actual stated condition of allowed entry to the UK it is a requirement that the person have a command of the native tongue, have understanding of native ways & traditions, as well as be able to establish means to support ones self as well as add to the social fabric by way of among many things...Being able to and mandated to pay national taxes.

I'm not a lawyer, nor do I play one on TV (or anywhere else), but would someone explain to me what is so onerous about wanting BOTH a guest worker program for resident aliens AND insisting on a secure border? If our country really made it a priority to control who can come into the country, wouldn't legal, resident aliens benefit the most (by shutting down "coyotes", drug thugs and other undesirables who regularly prey on Mexican nationals)? How is this bigoted? What am I missing?
Grasseater // Grass~eat~er noun, often attributive \ˈgras-ē-tər\
A person who is incapable of independent thought; a person who is herd animal-like in behavior; one who cannot distinguish between right and wrong; a foolish person.
See also Sheep
First, addressing the "bigoted" issue:
Not only would legal resident aliens and everyone else benefit by making control of the border a priority, everyone could in theory benefit; even Mexico and their citizens if their government then felt obligated to deal with its own problems.
The difficulties with many of the proposals and new laws which have passed and which are proposed, is that they do not address control of the border. They attempt to address finding and arresting people who do not belong within the US, and doing this far inland from the border.
This approach is fraught with great difficulty. There is no way it can be accomplished in a fair and in a constitutional way without engaging in profiling, or without requiring everyone to carry a uniform identification card. The latter approach (everyone must carry uniform papers) has been the hallmark of dictatorships in the past, is never foolproof, and there are always lawfully present individuals (even native born citizens) who will fall through the paper work cracks and get caught up and even deported through error. I believe I've read that each year we deport about 300-400 citizens by mistake, and sometimes folks are denied reentry by mistake. And this with with Federal LE folks far better trained than local LE in the intricacies of these issues.
In the days when Selective Service was active it was the law that every man keep his card with him at all times. Of course, in a practical world men often simply didn't do that. We didn't demand that the local police ask for the card at every traffic stop and immediately arrest everyone sans card. Doing that would have been impractical. It would have ensnared people who simply forgot it; or people who had lost it and were waiting for a replacement. Also, as always, there were many individuals here as visitors, on work visas, etc., who weren't required to have or carry such a card. Papers please doesn't work, and very many American do not like the idea at all based on history.
The profiling element and the bigotry element which you asked about arises from the fact that it is not possible to determine whom to ask for papers without considering appearance. And, appearance by itself is not reasonable suspicion. The illegal Caucasian from Canada isn't going to be asked for papers. The lawful 4th generation or 100th generation Mexican or Asian will be. The black man with a minor Jamaican or Hatian like accent will be.
This inequality of "risk" of being asked for papers and risk of arrest, will fall unevenly on certain segments of the lawful population, and thus --even if not intended to be bigoted-- is a violation of the equal protection clause of our constitution.
Second: Addressing your question, "would someone explain to me what is so onerous about wanting BOTH a guest worker program for resident aliens AND insisting on a secure border? "
I think the usual concerns about guest worker programs fall into two categories. 1) Competition for scarce jobs and wage suppression 2) the large numbers of folks who once here as guest workers, somehow never leave.
We didn't accumulate an estimated 12-20 million unlawful aliens in this country across the US -Mexican border. Many flew in through LA, Boston, NY, on various visas and simply never left. E.g., foreign students from around the world. It is quite easy to stay if you have obtained a DL, a social security number, a bank account, some friends and a job, while in a lawful status.
So, you are on the right track, but the proposals are the wrong train for getting to our destination.
Hope this helps answer your two questions.

David Cecil, a British theater producer, has been freed on bail in Uganda after being arrested over a play about a gay man.
Ugandan police jailed Cecil last Thursday on charges he "disobeyed lawful orders" because the play "The River and the Mountain" was performed without official approval.
The play features the main character of a young Ugandan businessman who is killed by his employees after revealing he is gay. It was performed last month at two theaters in Kampala, the capital.
Homosexual acts are illegal in Uganda, and gays and lesbians have long faced serious discrimination. A bill that proposes increasing jail terms to life is currently before the Ugandan parliament.
Cecil spent the weekend at Luzira prison and was freed Monday morning on bail of 500,000 shillings ($200), and had to surrender his passport, the Ugandan Daily Monitor reported.
The newspaper said he staged the play despite it not having received script approval from the country's Media Council.
According to the Daily Monitor, the Media Council "after sampling some of the excerpts of the play, it branded it 'obnoxious'."
"The Council further states that the play depicts Uganda as a country full of intolerant and violent people who take the law into their own hands as and when it suits their selfish purposes especially in regard to people with homosexual tendencies," the newspaper report said.
Cecil is to appear again in court on October 18, and faces up to two years in jail if convicted, the Associated Press reported.

Sears & Kmart Turn Walls Into QR-Enabled Catalogs
The two retailers are allowing customers to shop on the go in unexpected locations.
Just in time for Christmas, giant retailers Sears and Kmart have deployed 'mobile shopping walls' to turn high-traffic areas into large catalogs. These walls feature top-selling toys from Sears and Kmart and provide QR codes so that customers can easily scan the barcode and purchase the item directly on their smartphone. Currently the shopping walls have been seen in airports, malls, movie theaters and bus shelters across the U.S.
Julia Fitzgerald, Chief Digital Engagement Officer of toys and sporting goods for Sears Holdings, commented that:
Our mobile shopping walls are not only convenient because of their unexpected locations, but they offer easy shipping options as well. Our goal is to make holiday shopping so simple that customers can find the perfect gift while they are traveling or going about their daily lives, and have them waiting at their doorstep when they arrive home.


text: A Las Vegas HOA is currently fighting with the IRS over the question of whether $2 million held in the HOA's savings account is subject to income tax at the rate of 30%. Associations are generally organized as not-for-profit corporations (some older associations are not incorporated) and therefore must file tax returns like other not-for-profit corporations. Associations are not entitled to tax exempt status like charitable organizations. To be tax-exempt under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, an organization must be organized and operated exclusively for exempt purposes set forth in the Code. To be tax exempt under IRC 501(c)(4), a homeowners' association must operate for the benefit of the general public, i.e., it must provide a community benefit – not a benefit to the owners or residents. However, the IRS does have filing procedures specifically for homeowners associations. IRC 528 was enacted under the provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1976 and exempts dues or assessments received by qualified homeowners' associations from property owner-members of the organization, where these dues and assessments are used for the maintenance and improvement of its property from income tax. However, homeowners' associations are still taxed on any income or support received that did not constitute dues or assessments paid by its property owner-members for maintenance and improvement of its property. That is the crux of the problem experienced by the Summerlin HOA in Las Vegas. A significant portion of its savings was generated from greens fees paid for using the community golf courses, restaurant sales and community center rentals. Associations with income from boat dock rental, storage fees, restaurants, golf courses and the like need to consult with a CPA to evaluate filing options. Please consult with a CPA that is familiar with condominium and homeowners' associations operations and regulations so you don't face this type of problem solely as a result of your effort to build a nest egg for your community.

On September 21, 2008, Dexter went to the Rainbow Bridge. He was in his kennel, in the middle of all the family doings and slipped peacefully away on a Sunday afternoon. He'd had a stroke earlier in the week. Grandma says he never was quite the same after Missy crossed the Bridge. She gave him Missy's blankie and wrapped him in it after he was gone. I will miss him. Even though he was bossy...
Ohhhh, my tummy hurts.....
I ate all the peanut butter cookies that were cooling on the counter when my family wasn't looking.
I heard my little boy playing with a squeaky toy and tore up all the stuffies I could lay my paws on looking for that pesky squeaker thing.
I left pee mail on the packages under that big green thing. That means they're all mine, right?
I got muddy paw prints on the kitchen floor and Grandma's shirt when I tried to hug and kiss her. The snow is melting here. If Santy Paws doesn't hurry the snow will all be gone.
Oh no!! (looks around guiltily.) Whispers: Do you think Santy Paws saw me? Do you think he won't come now??? Missy's been so good this year, that won't be fair!! Does being bad just for today count??? Oh, Santy Paws, I am so sorry, you can give Missy my presents, but please come for her... Okay???
I'm just going to go lay down over here, my tummy's too full... I'll just be over here for the rest of the day, 'Kay????
Hope Santy Paws is good to you.....
Merry Christmas....
I went gack, good, this summer, it was just too blasted hot to do anything else. Grandma doesn't mind when I do normal dog stuff like chasing the squirrels. It's when I do the clever stuff, like going UNDER the chain link fence or opening the back gate or my kennel or the fridge that I drive her nuts.
Right now, I'm planning on visiting with all my doggie pals in the neighborhood to invite them to a surprise pawty for Missy's birthday. AnytimeI go under the fence, the entire neighborhood KNOWS I'm checking the pee- mail and visiting with my Bad Dog buddies. They help round me up and deliver me to Grandma. Sigh. Grandma's gotten to know the different voices of the dogs around me AND when they're telling me to meet them outside. I've got mixed feelings about that. On the one paw, she gets me OUTSIDE, but on the other paw, she's learning to speak canine....
Anyway, hope y'all had a good Halloweenie and I'lll bark at you soon...

The driver was traveling between Spanish Fork and Payson about 6:40 p.m. when the front tire of his motorcycle caught the lip of the road where the surface had been milled to lay new asphalt, troopers wrote in a press statement. The rider lost control and came off the motorcycle, which slid off the shoulder, troopers wrote.
The man was wearing a helmet but suffered injuries to his face.
He was taken to Utah Valley Regional Medical Center with critical injuries.

Gen Amnon Lipkin-Shahak
Mar. 18, 1944
Tel Aviv
Tel Aviv District, Israel
Dec. 19, 2012
Yerushalayim (Jerusalem District), Israel
Israeli Army General. A career officer, he twice earned his country's second highest award for bravery, eventually became Chief of Staff of the Israeli Defense Force (IDF), and later was active in politics. The child of a working class family, he was born in what was then Palestine, was prepared for military life from his teens on, and in 1962 enlisted in the IDF as a paratrooper. Lipkin-Shahak served in the 1967 War, was given command of the elite Duchifat Reconnaissance Unit, and in 1968 earned his first Medal of Courage (MoC) for heroism at the Battle of Karameh in Jordan. He led a brigade during the Yom Kippur War, received his second MoC in 1973 for heading a small group tasked with blowing-up a P.L.O. stronghold in Beirut, and steadily rose thru the ranks. After serving as Director of Intelligence and as Deputy Chief of Staff he became the 15th IDF Chief of Staff in 1995 though his tenure was to be marred by a number of interpersonal conflicts. Following his 1998 retirement from the Army Lipkin-Shahak joined the Centre Party, in 1999 stood for the Knesset, served as Minister of Tourism and later as Minister of Transportation under Prime Minister Ehud Barak, and was considered a moderate in the area of Palestinian relations. When the Barak government was voted out in 2001 Lipkin-Shahak resigned from the Knesset but continued to work for Middle East peace as long as his health permitted. The General died after a protracted battle with cancer.

We present an analysis of the optical structure of a representative diatom, Coscinodiscus granii. The silica cell wall can be regarded as a photonic crystal slab waveguide with moderate refractive-index contrast. In a cell, at least two different patterns are found: a hexagonal array of pores with a large lattice constant in the valve, and a square array of holes with a small lattice constant in the girdle. It is demonstrated that light can be coupled into the waveguide and that there are some photonic resonances in the visible spectral range, which have been determined by band-structure calculations.

Note: This scouting report was compiled by the staff of the Senior Bowl. It is reprinted here with their permission.
#16 Denard Robinson QB/WO Michigan 6000/197/4.42
Background: Denard will be a 23-year old NFL rookie in 2013. He was a First team All-Broward County quarterback and rated #8 in the country as an athlete by ESPN.com at Deerfield Beach HS, FL. In three years as the starter, he passed for 4,487 yards and 44 touchdowns while running for 1,132 yards and 13 more scores. He also ran track and finished 3rd in the 100M at the Florida 4A Track and Field State Championships and was part of the winning 4x100M relay team. He did not redshirt at Michigan in 2009 and played in all 12 games as a QB with one start as a RB.
In '10, he started all 13 games at QB and completed 182-of-291 passes (62.5 pct.) for 2,570 yards with 18 touchdowns and 11 interceptions and carried the football 256 times for 1,702 yards (6.6 avg) and 14 touchdowns. He became the first player in NCAA history to pass for 2,500+ yards and rushing for 1,500+ yards in a single season.
ICONThe scouting staff at the Senior Bowl says that Denard Robinson should focus on his receiving skills if he wants to make it at the next level.
In '11, he made 13 more starts and passed for 2,173 yards, 20 touchdowns and 15 interceptions and ran for 1,176 yards (5.3avg) and 16 touchdowns. He has been selected for various All-Big Ten teams and is a preseason awards candidate in 2012. Denard is a general studies major in the College of Literature, Science and the Arts.
Tapes Viewed: 2011-Purdue, Illinois, Nebraska, Ohio State
Game Attended: vs. Alabama, September 1
Summary: Denard is a three year starter at quarterback for Michigan where he has posted incredible numbers as a multidimensional athlete. His most likely path to the NFL will be as a wide receiver in the mold of Antwaan Randle El (former Indiana QB and Steelers' WR) from a decade ago. He does not have the frame to continue as a pro-style quarterback, however, he does have an athletic build with lean-muscled arms and legs.
Denard is an electric playmaker with make-miss ability in a compressed area and the long distance speed to score from anywhere on the field. It is expected that he will get some reps for the Wolverines as a wide receiver/slot back in 2012, where he can be utilized in a variety of ways. They will motion and move him around before handing, pitching or passing him the football in space. For the NFL, he has the athleticism and foot quickness to run routes, but he has very little experience in this regard. A trip to the Senior Bowl would serve him well in getting a head start on the transition from QB to WR. There is no question about his athletic ability, quickness and speed—the concerns will be his adaptability to playing WR and actually catching the football. Plus, he certainly has the skills needed to be a punt returner in addition to an expanded role as
specialized Wildcat QB.
Pat White, the former West Virginia QB and Senior Bowler drafted by the Dolphins in the 2nd round, is another prospect that comes to mind when evaluating Denard. However, White did not pan out as a Wildcat QB with Miami and never embraced playing wide receiver. Early indications are that Denard realizes his situation and wants to make the move as soon as his Michigan season ends. After a tough outing in the opener vs. Alabama, he responded with a 426-yard game against Air Force by rushing for 218 yards and
two touchdowns and passing for 208 more with two touchdowns through the air. What the NFL scouts want to see in 2012: For Denard to stay relatively healthy for the entire season and to make a concerted effort in transitioning full-time from QB to WR when the appropriate time comes to do so, preferably during the all-star game phase of the evaluation process.

Starring Moritz (Taking Sides) Bleibtreu, Christian (Lassiez-passer) Berkel, Oliver (U-571) Stokowski, Wotan (Anatomy 2) Wilke Mohring
Directed by Oliver Hirschbiegel
Throughout the course of running a horror website, I've heard about movies that are so damn good they're almost universally loved by everyone that sees them. Ring was one of those movies. So was Versus. And as of late 2001, word starting going around about Das Experiment, which for me started when Mitch Davis mentioned it during our interview with him at Fantasia Fest last year. I've kept my ears open ever since.
As luck would have it, a story we did on the movie on the site got the attention of the right people, and I managed to get my hands on a copy. You better damn well believe I was happy, and now that I've seen I know it was worth the wait.
Tarek Fahd (Bleibtreu) is a simple man. He drives a cab for a living, has a new girlfriend, and believes nothing happens without a reason. When he sees an ad in the newspaper looking for people to participate in a "prison simulation" experiment, he decides to sign up. Because it seems interesting and mind-expanding? No, because he also used to be a journalist for a big-city newspaper, and this story looks to be huge.
The rules for the two-week experiment are simple. 20 men will be divided up, 12 into prisoners, 8 into guards. The guards are to maintain order among the prisoners without the use of violence, and everyone is free to quit at anytime. By doing so, however, they will forfeit their payment of 4000 marks (about $2000). At first it's a somewhat jovial environment, with the prisoners goofing on the guards and trying to elicit laughs, but the guards are told from the get-go that the success of the experiment depends upon them taking their job seriously.
You'd be amazed how quickly things go wrong…
I'm not going to get any further into the plot, because that's about all I knew about it when I watched it for the first time, so I know there are a lot of surprises. I will tell you that the story is based on Stanford University's 1971 Prison Experiment (you can find more about that here but I warn you, it may give away some pieces of the movie that are best left alone).
What I will tell you, however, is that Das Experiment is not really a horror movie in the traditional sense. It's a horror movie for those that consider films like Jacob's Ladder horrific (though it's very different). It's psychologically terrifying, which is often far more effective than any amount of blood on the screen.
The performances turned in by the principal cast are absolutely excellent, especially that of Bleibtreu, who deserves the German equivalent of the Academy Award after the range he shows here. Going from a normal, somewhat overly hip guy to what he turns into at the end is enough to make most "name" actors cringe. As you can imagine, a lot of psychological ranges occur when put into a situation such as a simulated prison environment, and boy do they ever. This is the kind of movie that hinges on the performances turned in by the cast, and the producers did an amazing job of getting the right people cast in the right roles.
I don't want to say too much more about Das Experiment, but just trust me when I say that the damn thing is amazing. Go in expecting whatever you want, chances are you're going to get something that much better. You can get the film on DVD here in the states now, where it was released as The Experiment (a translation), so if you spot it don't let the really boring cover lure you away from it.
If German is your thing, or you have a lot of patience for translated sites, I would highly recommend checking out the movie's ultra-cool official site right here.

Hi Everyone,
A friend of mine is interested in duck hunting and was wondering if he could just accompany me and my other friend on a duck hunt to see what it's all about. We wouldn't let him shoot or do anything but observe and stay hidden so he doesnt scare our birds.
I was wondering if this would be permitted, or if he would still need a Hunters Ed. class and Hunting License. I thought I read somewhere you could bring up to 2 non-hunters with you, but was not 100% sure this is the case.
Would this be allowed? Thanks!

How to Spot a Narcissist
The "narcissistic personality"—a legend-in-his-own-mind type who assumes that other people exist merely to admire him—is notoriously difficult to tag in the wild. That's because at first you're having too much fun with him, romantic or friendly, to notice the signs. Only later will you register the considerable emotional drain of being in his company.
Here are some indicators that you may have a narcissist on your hands. Is he social, charming, and, well, kind of materialistic? Is he rude to waiters? Does he have grandiose plans? Do his eyes glaze over when you try to talk about yourself, and does he steer the conversation back to his favorite subject? (You: "I broke my leg." Him: "Oh, I broke my leg once when I was skiing the triple black diamond in Vail. You have to see me ski. Everybody said I should go pro.") Does he blame others when things go wrong?
"A narcissistic person can be really likable and exciting at the beginning," says W. Keith Campbell, the head of the department of psychology at the University of Georgia, in Athens, and a coauthor of The Narcissism Epidemic: Living in the Age of Entitlement ($16, amazon.com). "The problem is that he lacks empathy." So rather than considering your needs, ever, the narcissist believes that his time and energy are best spent on activities befitting the planet's most exceptional person (that would be him). This selfishness is wearing, and you are soon tapped dry from constantly reinforcing the charmer's high opinion of himself.
If your narcissist is a potential romantic partner, you should probably run, says Campbell, no matter how thrilling the ride. "It's like eating a bunch of chocolate cake," he says. "It feels really good at first, but later you're sick."
If your narcissist is a friend and you want to maintain the relationship, it's up to you to understand her limitations. "Accept that she's a lot of fun to have a drink with, and enjoy her on that level," says Campbell. "But don't hope for anything further."

February 23, 2009
CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas— This April, visitors to the Texas State Aquarium will experience raptors and birds of prey in a whole new way! Eagle Pass, the latest addition to Conservation Cove, promotes a strong message of backyard conservation. All of the raptors featured in this exhibit were rescued and rehabilitated at the Texas State Aquarium. Perhaps the most regal raptor of the exhibit is Grace, a bald eagle. Rehabilitated in Alaska, Grace was deemed non-releasable and will have a home in Eagle Pass, where visitors can get a personal look at America's bird, something you may not be able to doin the wild.
Conservation Cove is a three-year expansion project of the Aquarium's outdoor exhibit plaza, including otters, sea turtles, alligators, and raptors. The project began in 2006 with the Hawn Wild Flight Theater, which opened in April of 2007. Tortuga Cay, a sanctuary for sea turtles, and Otter Creek opened last March.
The media is invited to the Texas State Aquarium on Tuesday, February 24, at 10:30 a.m. to get a sneak peek of Eagle Pass.
The mission of the Texas State Aquarium is to inspire appreciation and wise stewardship of the Gulf of Mexico.
The Aquarium is an accredited member of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums
and the Alliance of Marine Mammal Parks and Aquariums.

Hex Appeal Power Puff Girls Review Special
Welcome to another famous Power Puff Review! Bubbles (Ana from Book Smugglers) and Blossum are back with their review of Hex Appeal by Linda Wisdom. But where has Buttercup gone? Buttercup is on secret vacation with Batman, and both are relaxing on a beach somewhere. Poor Robin is stuck cave sitting. So what makes this review so special? We have a guest reviewer taking over for Buttercup. She is Dot Warner (Jen B from The Ginger Kid's Den of Iniquity). Make sure to check out their reviews and see if we agree or disagree with our reviews.
When I read 50 Ways to Hex a Lover, I fell in love with Jasmine "Jazz" Tremaine, a seven-hundred year old witch who loves fashion, food and great sex with her on again, off again vampire lover Nikolai Gregorvich. Along with Jazz, Linda created an interesting group of characters that include, Jazz's computer addicted roommate, Krebs, Irma, a ghost who haunt's Jazz's car, and Fluff and Puff, Jazz's magical bunny slippers that steal every scene they are in.
Jazz and her friends are now back, along with some new faces in the sequel, Hex Appeal. Again Jazz is caught up in solving a mystery mainly because Fluff and Puff have been accused of eating Willie, a wereweasel who operated the Ferris wheel on the boardwalk near where Nick lives. Never mind that I am still trying to figure out how these bunny slippers could eat a whole person alone, since I would assume if they are putting things down their mouth to digest, something has to come out the other end. But since Jazz hasn't stepped in any interesting slipper doo-doo, she knows that her slippers would never do such a thing, mainly because they think wereweasel blood isn't that tasty. But it doesn't help matters when Fluff coughs up a black button that belongs to Willie. Willie's boss and boardwalk owner, Rex, thinks he has enough proof to destroy the slippers. Now Jazz has to figure out who is trying to frame Fluff and Puff.
Around the same time, Jazz is having some intense dreams of death, mainly hers. They are so real that while she is sleeping next to Nick, she has a really bad nightmare where Nick has gorged himself on her blood, even though witch's blood is dangerous for vampires. Poor Nick has no clue what the deal is with Jazz, and thinks she is overacting. But then Nick starts having dreams of Jazz being human and married with a husband and family. At first Nick and Jazz ignore their dreams, but they become a lot worse. And then something really horrible happens where Jazz loses all her powers for a day and is a mortal. Something is rotten in the state
Hex Appeal had me in stitches. This is a screwball paranormal-comedy with witches, vampires, were creatures, and all types of footwear that comes alive. Not only is there Fluff and Puff, who I so want for myself, but Jazz has a new pair of stilettos from a witch friend named Croc and Delilah that like to wear Jazz's makeup, constantly blow kisses and raspberries and have a bad habit of rubbing up against any male's leg they come in contact with. Yup, they are some horny shoes. Plus, they really compliment Jazz's feet. If only we, the female readers could be so lucky to have such shoes like Jazz's.
Jazz and Nick's relationship is an interesting one. These two are passionate with one another, but they still make sure to keep their own space. They bicker, laugh and make love, but they realize they have to set boundaries because their past relationship with one another was a bit emotional where Jazz would have a habit of flinging fireballs at Nick when she became angry at him. What I would have loved to read would have been some flashbacks of Nick and Jazz and how they first met and what made them fall in love with one another. But even though these two are immortals, they act like any other modern day couple.
Since most paranormal books I tend to read happen to be dark and gloomy, Hex Appeal brings out some laughs and smiles over the antics of Jazz and the world that Linda Wisdom has created. I will continue to read this series as long as Linda writes them. It takes great skill from an author for me to enjoy footwear such as Fluff and Puff as my new favorite characters of the year.
