First Cash Financial Services Selects AT&T for International Network Services
Arlington, Texas, December 27, 2007
AT&T Inc. (NYSE:T) today announced that First Cash Financial Services (NASDAQ: FCFS), a leading provider of specialty consumer financial services and related retail products, has selected AT&T to provide domestic and international network services under a three-year, $7 million contract.
Under the terms of the agreement, AT&T is providing Virtual Private Network (VPN) services to nearly 250 First Cash retail locations in the United States. Additionally, AT&T is providing a solution to connect nearly 190 First Cash retail locations in Mexico by using AT&T's Internet Protocol (IP)-enabled Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS)-based Frame Relay/ATM network. The two network solutions will work together and enable improved communications that will lead to business and customer benefits such as cost-efficiencies and optimized transaction time.
"First Cash Financial Services needed a service provider that offered not only a secure, reliable network solution, but also a global footprint," said Doug Orr, executive vice president and chief financial officer, First Cash Financial Services. "AT&T brought its expertise to the table, along with a flexible solution that could cater directly to our needs as they change with customer demand."
The MPLS-based solution offers a scalable way for First Cash to introduce critical applications as needed — offering a flexible foundation on which to build new applications and bandwidth. A significant element of First Cash's growth strategy is based on the aggressive expansion of new stores and products in Mexico. As the market for these services evolves in Mexico, First Cash can meet demand by mirroring those changes in its data network.
Business continuity is an added benefit that these solutions provide for First Cash. Each retail location is connected to a data center with dual-entry into the network, which provides added reliability for connecting to the network services. If one point of entry is unavailable, First Cash stores have a second connection to the network available at all times. The MPLS-based solution also allows First Cash to have greater flexibility in managing the data flow from its stores to the data center. This enables First Cash to balance its data loads during peak times to ensure the greatest network efficiency while relying on two points of entry into the network.

Embryologic origins of the auricle. A 42-day-old human embryo shows 6 hillocks of His evenly distributed between the first (green tint) and second branchial arches (purple tint). The second arch is thought to have a larger eventual relative contribution to the formation of the pinna.
Classic and postauricular variants of preauricular sinuses. The classic variant's pit is anterior to an imaginary line connecting the posterior edge of both the tragus and the ascending helix. The posterior variant's pit occurs posterior to this line and has tracts that extend directly posteriorly or inferoposteriorly.

To determine the histologic relationship and distance between excised preauricular epithelial sinus tract and the adjacent auricular cartilage (sinocartilaginous distance) in a series of patients. The excision of preauricular sinuses is a common surgical procedure. Recurrences are frequent and can be technically challenging. While advocated by several authors, the surgical removal of adjacent auricular cartilage is not universally performed.
Retrospective case series.
Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.
Fifty-two pediatric patients who underwent surgical excision of preauricular sinus tracts and adjacent auricular cartilage.
Between September 1, 2005, and July 31, 2007, the preauricular sinus tracts and adjacent auricular cartilage were excised from 52 pediatric patients. A pathologist reviewed a total of 58 specimens to determine the relationship between epithelial tract and cartilage.
Main Outcome Measure
The sinocartilaginous distance in microns.
Patient ages ranged from 8 months to 17 years (mean age, 4 years). In all but 1 case, the tracts were in close proximity to the cartilage. The average sinocartilaginous distance was 472 μm (median distance, 400 μm); the 25th percentile was 250 μm. In over 50% of the specimens, the sinocartilaginous distance was less than 0.5 mm, and in nearly all of the these, the epithelial tract was in continuity with stromal tissue histologically indistinguishable from perichondrium.
The observed sinocartilaginous distances suggest that it may be difficult to dissect most sinus tracts from the cartilage. The routine removal of a small portion of auricular cartilage along with the sinus tract may yield a more thorough excision and help to prevent recurrence.
Preauricular sinuses are the most common of all periauricular cysts, sinuses, and fistulas. A preauricular sinus is most often noted on physical examination as an inconspicuous cutaneous pit on the ascending limb of the helix; the vast majority are asymptomatic and do not require treatment. However, once they become infected, surgical excision is recommended because the likelihood of recurrent infections is high. These epithelial tracts commonly arborize; they have narrow, tortuous paths and are often grossly rooted on or near the perichondrium of the helical root of the pinna. Surgical removal is the mainstay of treatment. However, simple sinectomy is plagued by recurrence, with literature-reported rates often near 20% and ranging as high as 42%.1- 3 Current theories attribute recurrence to an incomplete removal of epithelial cells.
Several authors advocate the routine excision of abutting cartilage, a maneuver that appears to be associated with a lower rate of recurrence.1,3- 7 From the literature, it is impossible to ascertain whether the decrease is attributable to removal of cartilage because no study has directly addressed this issue. The removal of cartilage is often done in conjunction with a more thorough excision of the tract. While recommended by some, excision of cartilage has not yet become universally accepted. To our knowledge, no study to date has investigated the histologic relationship of sinus tracts to cartilage. The present study represents an early step in assembling evidence to develop consistently effective approaches to address these malformations.
This retrospective, single-center study was approved by our institutional review board at The Children's Hospital of Pennsylvania. We evaluated the histologic characteristics of specimens from pediatric patients who underwent primary preauricular sinectomy between September 1, 2005, and July 31, 2007, at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. At our institution, cartilage is typically removed during preauricular sinusectomy, but the attending surgeon makes the final decision based on the clinical circumstances. The primary measure of interest was the sinocartilaginous distance measured in microns. Patient medical charts were reviewed for demographic information.
Routine 4-μm-thick hematoxylin-eosin–stained slides were studied. The closest distance between the squamous tract and the excised auricular cartilage was measured using a slide micrometer. Descriptive data are presented as medians (interquartile ranges [IQRs]) or means (SDs), as indicated. The relationship of demographic variables with sinocartilaginous distances was analyzed using the Wilcoxon rank sum or Spearman correlation test, as appropriate. Adjusted analysis was performed using linear regression. All analyses were performed using Stata software, version 10 (StataCorp LP, College Station, Texas).
During the 2-year period of analysis, 74 operations were performed on 65 patients, 9 of whom underwent bilateral sinusectomy. Only 1 patient was diagnosed as having branchio-oto-renal syndrome (BOR). No other patients were known to have syndromes associated with preauricular sinuses. The patient with BOR underwent the same surgical treatment as the others, and his specimen was included in the histologic review. Sixteen specimens were eventually excluded from histologic review: 7 of these specimens were too disrupted to allow measurement of the sinocartilaginous distance; 5 had not been submitted for pathologic review; 3 had no discernible cartilage; and 1 had no identifiable epithelial tract. The 58 remaining specimens are included in the analysis. All 58 specimens had anteriorly positioned pits; there were no posterior variants in this series.
Patients of a wide age range and both sexes were included in the sample (Table). Six of the 52 patients underwent bilateral operations (12%). Nine surgeons performed the procedures (4-10 procedures per surgeon).
The mean (SD) sinocartilaginous distance was 473 (535) μm, and the median (IQR) distance was 400 (250-500) μm. The closest distance was 5 μm, and the farthest was 4000 μm. Patient age was not significantly correlated with sinocartilaginous distance (Spearman ρ = 0.22) (P = .10). Mean sinocartilaginous distance did not differ by sex (boys, 560 μm; girls, 397 μm; 95% confidence interval, −444 to 117 μm) (P = .24) or side of surgery (left side, 349 μm; right side, 588 μm; 95% confidence interval, −515 to 38 μm) (P = .09). Adjusted analysis using linear regression for all 3 predictive variables (age, sex, and side of operation) showed no associations with sinocartilaginous distance (P = .40, P = .50, and P = .10, respectively).
In over 50% of the specimens reviewed, the sinocartilaginous distance was less than 0.5 mm, and in nearly all of these cases, the epithelial tract was in continuity with stromal tissue histologically indistinguishable from the perichondrium.
Six paired branchial arches composed of ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm appear in the fourth week of fetal life. Each arch is separated by a 2-layered closing membrane, which demarcates the inner, endothelially lined pharyngeal pouch from the outer, ectodermally lined branchial cleft. Each arch gives rise to muscle, skin, and cartilage, which are innervated primarily by 1 cranial nerve. The first pharyngeal pouch gives rise to the middle ear, mastoid antrum, and eustachian tube. The closing membrane becomes the tympanic membrane. Only the first branchial cleft persists as the external ear canal. All other clefts are resorbed.8
The pinna is formed by mesoderm and ectoderm from the first and second branchial arches and first branchial cleft. During the sixth week of embryonic development, mesenchymal proliferation produces the 6 hillocks of His. Three hillocks gather on the caudal aspect of the first branchial arch, and another 3 on the cephalic aspect of the second branchial arch. The hillocks eventually enlarge and fuse to form the pinna. With growth of the auricle, the contribution of the first branchial arch becomes relatively reduced (Figure 1).9
The exact embryologic basis of preauricular sinuses is uncertain. They may be related to an incomplete fusion of the first arch hillocks, an entrapment of ectodermal folds during auricular formation, or a defective closure of the dorsal portion of the first branchial cleft.9- 11
Preauricular sinuses can be both sporadic and inherited. They are bilateral in approximately 25% to 50% of patients. When bilateral, the sinuses are more likely to be inherited. Their inheritance shows an autosomal dominant pattern with reduced penetrance and variable expression.12 Recent research has mapped a potential locus for congenital preauricular fistula to chromosome 8q11.1-q13.3.13Although the true prevalence is not well established, preauricular sinuses are thought to occur most commonly in black populations. The incidence of preauricular sinuses has been estimated to be 0.1% to 0.9% in the United States, 0.9% in England, 1.6% to 2.5% in Taiwan, and 4% to 10% in some areas of Africa.14- 16
Preauricular sinuses are the most common variant of all the periauricular cysts, fistulas, and sinuses. The cutaneous pit of the preauricular pit is most often located on or near the ascending limb of the helical rim but can also open along the superior posterior margin of the helix as well as the tragus.17 While both cutaneous opening and fistulous tracts are classically located anterior to the external auditory canal, a reported variant form has its opening behind an imaginary vertical line drawn at the posterior most aspect of the tragus and the posterior aspect of the ascending limb of the helix (Figure 2). This variant typically presents with postauricular swelling and requires both postauricular and preauricular incisions for its removal.18
Classically, the surgical approach consists of a simple sinectomy with an elliptical island of skin removed around the opening of the sinus and excision of the epithelial sinus tract. Various authors have advocated the use of either methylene blue or gentle probing of the tract to carefully delineate the tract.1- 3,5 However, neither approach guarantees full removal of the tracts: reported recurrence rates are quite high, typically near 20%.1- 3
In 1981, Emery and Salama2 described a wide local excision approach that added a supra-auricular limb to the incision and carried the dissection down to the level of the temporalis fascia. They noted adherence of the tracts to auricular perichondrium in 10 of 10 of these approaches, and they reported no recurrences using this approach over an average follow-up time of 2.7 years. In 1990, Prasad et al3 compared the simple sinectomy with the supra-auricular approach (which involved removal of a portion of the auricular perichondrium); they noted recurrences of 42% (n = 12) and 5% (n = 21), respectively, with no mention of follow-up duration. In 2001, Lam et al6 compared these 2 techniques and again noted a favorable recurrence rate for the supra-auricular approach of 3.7% (n = 27) vs 32% (n = 25) for the simple sinectomy approach. Follow-up ranged from 36 months to 13 years. They noted recurrences at 3 months to 5 years after removal (mean, 6 months), which supports the importance of a long period of observation postoperatively to obtain an accurate sense of the true rates of recurrence. The supra-auricular approach includes a wide and deep removal of the tract, but it was not made clear in the cited studies whether auricular perichondrium or cartilage was removed in the simple sinectomy groups.
More recently, Baatenburg de Jong4 reported a study of the "inside-out technique," a procedure first used by Jensma in the 1970s, although he never published a description. In this approach, the use of magnification is mandatory. An ellipse of skin is incised around the opening as in the simple sinectomy, but the tract is purposely opened and dissected with its branches by following the differences of the appearance of epithelium under magnification. Smaller branches and tracts are pursued to their end. Baatenburg de Jong4 also mentions removing a segment of perichondrium as well as its underlying cartilage. Using this technique, he noted no recurrence in 23 patients in a follow-up period ranging from 1 to 25 months.
Since recurrences are attributed to incomplete excision, it follows that both depth and breadth of excision are important. While an understanding of the embryology will reinforce the surgeon's understanding of the location of these tracts, it is the recognition of their often branching, tortuous structures as well as their proximity to perichondrium that is essential in developing a thorough technique.
Because the present study is not a randomized controlled trial, our findings cannot be used to determine whether excision of cartilage or perichondrium prevents recurrence of preauricular sinuses. This present descriptive effort was designed to help understand the histologic relationship between preauricular sinuses and the underlying cartilage of the helical rim. Histologic sectioning always introduces an element of uncertainty in that it represents a fairly random sampling of the tissue that could unintentionally skew results. Nonetheless, the evidence reported herein suggests that it may be difficult to dissect the tract completely from the cartilage without removing cartilage itself or at least a piece of perichondrium. In over 50% of the specimens reviewed, the sinocartilaginous distance was less than 0.5 mm, and in nearly all of these cases, the epithelial tract was in continuity with stromal tissue histologically indistinguishable from the perichondrium. The removal of a small piece of cartilage or perichondrium does not produce a visible cosmetic deformity or add any significant morbidity. Therefore, the routine removal of a small portion of perichondrium and/or auricular cartilage along with the sinus tract may yield a more thorough excision and help to prevent recurrence.

"Tribute Paid to *Mr. James B. Hazel (By Miss Zena Payne) -- In the
passing of Mr. James B. Hazel, on September 5, all who knew him have been
saddened. He was the son of the late Mr. J. W. Hazel and Mrs. Mary Bodie
Hazel, being born August 24, 1870, in the Bethlehem community where he lived
until manhood, taking an active part in community lift.
He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Mary Workman Hazel, two sons, Mr. W. S.
Hazel of Tampa, FL and Mr. Clifton Hazel of Greenwood; a daughter Miss Flema
Hazel of Johnston; also 10 grandchildren; two great-grandchildren, and a
sister, Mrs. Y. M. Powell of Johnston.
(Summarized) Christian man, loyal and consecrated, giving his heart to the
Saviour in early boyhood. He was faithful in his work, never speaking anything
but good of others, a wonderful loving and kind husband and father....
The body was laid to rest Tuesday afternoon, four o'clock, a beautiful
service conducted by the Rev. B. R. Cannon held in the dear old church where he
worshipped and served God so long. The body was then laid to rest by graves of
other loved ones gone on before under the huge old trees that have stood
sentinel so long...."
I have other documentation on this family and all points to father as James W.
Hazel, rather than John Hazel. The informant is probably Her son James H.
Powell b. March 15, 1895 m. Ashley Bledsoe. Grandfather James W. died April
06, 1912, so he may not have remembered him. When my sons had their children,
I remember one of them asking me what their "Pop"s name was to put in the baby
We need to educate out families on the names we know to keep them accurate when
information for death certificates are needed.

TigerFlight Foundation, based at Richard B. Russell Airport in Rome, Ga., is a nonprofit foundation leading youth to the dream of flight and providing an opportunity for adults to serve through aviation activities. Our mission is to inspire youth and adults to become "Pilots in Command" of their own lives.Learn More
A member of TigerFlight can visit your classroom and inspire your students to become Pilots in Command of their own lives. The pilot in command (PIC) of an aircraft is the person aboard the aircraft who is ultimately responsible for its operation and safety during all flight operations. We use this idea as a metaphor for believing in oneself and reaching for your dreams.Get Details
TigerFlight has developed a seven coin youth challenge program designed to help the student and their family to adopt seven valuable character traits and become pilots in command of their own lives. The character traits are: to be respectful, honest, courageous, honorable, moral, faithful, and responsible.How to participate
Jake Skyler is a typical 12-year-old -- hanging out with his buddies, surfing the Net and playing video games -- until one day a formation of twin-tailed tiger airplanes soars overhead. Jake's obsession with the Tiger Flight pilots and their amazing aircraft turns into a dream of learning to fly.Learn More
Tiger Flight Foundation offers several programs to help young people reach their potential, including, TigerFlight Pilot in Command motivational presentations, TigerFlight Youth Challenge Coin Program, and classroom or school visits.Learn More
On the second Saturday of each month, weather permitting, TigerFlight pilots will give free flights to children ages 11 to 18 at Richard B. Russell Regional Airport. During the free orientation flights, TigerFlight pilots talk to the children about the airplanes and explain some of the sciences of flight.Learn More

Though most basketball fans tend to follow the player with the ball, one of the biggest factors during the Ellison at Shoemaker crosstown district rivalry matchup took place inside the paint.
The big guys threw their bodies in the paint, fought for every opportunity and made an even bigger difference for the Grey Wolves in their 59-47 win over Ellison on Friday night.
"It's a total team concept," Shoemaker coach Emund Prichett said. "That's what I'm trying to preach here, that's what I'm trying to get them to understand. I don't care who has 20 points, I don't care who the paper interviews, all I worry about is if the Grey Wolves win."
The play inside was fast and furious all night, with players on both teams throwing their bodies in for every rebound, blocked shot and loose ball.
But it was the play of Shoemaker posts Torenzo Saunders and Nykolas Dawson, along with the versatility of wing Shane Johnson, that allowed the Grey Wolves (13-6, 3-2 8-5A) to get the big district win.
"Coach told us that if we do those little things, we'll come up with a victory," sophomore guard Tyrone Williams said.
Saunders, Dawson and Johnson combined to score 31 points for Shoemaker whereas the Ellison (12-9, 3-2) frontcourt managed to score only 16, 12 of which came from Ronnie Edwards, who led the team in scoring.
The scoring output helped Shoemaker make up for the fact that Ellison held a 23-17 rebounding edge.
"It was a team victory and guys did what we asked them to do," Prichett said after the game. "It was a great game, we were victorious and it was another chance to get better. Now there's an opportunity for us to build on what just happened tonight."
The Grey Wolves were able to outscore the Eagles in the paint 28-26 and shot 71 percent (15 for 21) from inside the 3-point line compared to Ellison's 61 percent (16 for 29).
Shoemaker put the game out of reach by coming up with some baskets in the paint down the stretch.
Ellison's Knigel Key cut Shoemaker's lead to 43-40 with 5:25 remaining, but Shoemaker closed the door by countering with a 14-7 run in the next 4:29.
The Grey Wolves scored six straight point during that run on layups, drives to the baskets and loose balls in the paint.

Movie Title- Koochie Koochie Hota Hai
Star Cast- Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol, Rani Mukerji, Sanjay Dutt
Director- Vishal Sonawane, Tarun Mansukhani
Producer- Dharma Productions, Prana Studios
Release Date- 2012
Remember the touchy romantic story of two best friends who fall in love after years of separation? Yes, that was 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai', way back in 1998! And now, it is 'Koochie Koochie Hota Hai' in 2012.
'Koochie Koochie Hota Hai' is an upcoming animated film which is being directed by Vishal Sonawane and Tarun Mansukhani. The film is the animated remake of the 1998 blockbuster film. Like the original film, this too will be produced by Karan Johar's Dharma Productions.
The major love story of Rahul, Tina and Anjali revolves between three dogs, and the roles of supporting casts will be played by other animals like roosters, pigs, cats, bears, and so on. The voice of Rocky will be lent by Shah Rukh Khan, Anjali Kapoor's by Kajol, Tina Malhotra's by Rani Mukerji and Aman's by Sanjay Dutt. The voice of the Principal of the college will be lent by the original principal himself, Anupam Kher.
The production of this film started in 2010 and was ready for a 2011 release, but due to some reasons, it has been pushed back to a 2012 release. It would be interesting to watch if the animated remake can create the same magic which the original film had created on screen more than a decade back.

Peyton Manning threw his 420th touchdown today during the Denver Broncos victory over the Carolina Panthers and is now tied with Dan Marino on the all-time touchdown list for quarterbacks.
Manning and Marino are tied in second place on the all-time list with 420 touchdowns each. Brett Farve holds the record with 508 touchdowns.
According to Fan Sided, Manning has a shot at surpassing Farve by the time he calls it quits. Manning lost all of last season due to an injury but recently signed a five year contract with the Broncos. If Manning can stay healthy, he'd only have to throw 18 touchdowns during the next five seasons. Manning already has 20 touchdowns this season and has never thrown less than 26 touchdowns in a season.
Manning has checked off several Marino records throughout his career. In 2004, Manning broke Dan Marino's single season touchdown recordwhen he put the ball into the end zone 49 times. According to USA Today, the Broncos quarterback broke another Marino record this year when he tallied his 48th 4th quarter comeback victory.
At the time, Manning said:
"I think you have to rely on your fundamentals and techniques … That's why you treat practice like a game, and you put yourself in those pressure situations during the week. Then, when those fourth quarters come around, you feel like you're prepared."
Do you think Peyton Manning will catch Brett Farve on the all-time touchdown list?

BALI UPDATE #463 - 25 July 2005
Repositioning Bali's Tourism
Address by Former Minister of Tourism Joop Ave Urges Bali's Tourism Leaders to Reconsider Bali's Future in a Fundamentally Different World.
An one hour inspirational and thought-provoking address by Indonesia's former Minister of Tourism and Telecommunications, Joop Ave, delivered entirely without aid of text on Wednesday, July 20, 2005, left a group of more than 200 leaders in Bali tourism awe-struck and more than a little nostalgic for the days of Ave's strong leadership as the Captain of Tourism.
Now 72 years of age and retired, Ave was invited to Bali to be the keynote speaker at a conference and workshop on repositioning Bali's tourism sponsored by the provincial government of Bali. The full-day conference at the
Conrad Bali Resort & Spa
was called to answer Bali Governor's call for specific input on how best to manage the island's largest industry.
Fundamental Change
Quo Vadis
Asking the delegates where Bali was heading, Ave reminded that following the 9-11 tragedy in New York and the Bali bombing of October 2002, the world's tourism underwent a fundamental change. In Bali, this has resulted in basic changes in the demographics of the visitors to the island, including the recent emergence of an important domestic market whose needs remain largely unaddressed by local travel practitioners.
The Age of the Lifestyle Traveler
Disdaining the cookie-cutter approach to branding service employed by many large international hotel chains, Ave encourages Bali to explore the fuller meaning of Balinese culture. Only by promoting and nurturing Bali's unique heritage, as well as appreciating the dynamic qualities of the island's culture that have made it a world-renowned holiday destination, will Bali tourism manage to maintain its leading position in a fast-changing world.
Indonesians Prefer to Take the Higher Road
Noting with sadness the recent tragic events in London, Ave recounted how Bali very successfully captured and brought to trial more than 30 people involved in the Bali bombing and, later, weathered the avalanche of criticism surrounding the Shapelle Corby trial. He applauded the fact that despite having suffered significantly as the result of unfair travel advisories, Indonesia has taken the higher road and has never considered issuing travel warnings when western powers have fallen victim to terrorist attacks.
According to Ave, recent meetings in Washington in which Australia and the U.S. both called for greater attention to be paid to Indonesia and its near neighbors were a good sign, reflecting a gradual awareness of the region's importance and potential.
Airline Policy
Drawing on his past experience, Ave underlined his belief that a nation's airline policy
must always
be subservient to the national tourism goals. Insisting that he has always been a strong supporter of the national carrier
Garuda Indonesia
, Ave related how during his years at the helm of Indonesia's tourism he opposed those who tried to monopolize Indonesia's air access.
In the words of the former minister, "Indonesia is too big to depend on only a single airline!"
The Management of Bali's Growth
The last part of Ave's presentation was a spirited call to action to Bali's tourism officials to rethink their approach to local politics and the management of the island's tourism product.
Citing the urgent need for a new Master Plan to guide Bali's development, he urged people to stop endlessly criticizing their current leaders but, instead, to finds ways to work together for Bali's future.
While Indonesia's new, more participatory form of government allows unheard of opportunities for people at all levels of society to participate in the decision-making process, Ave reminded his listeners that, in the end, the "Government must lead" and that successful development requires sacrifices from all parts of the community to serve the common good.
Shifting Markets, Shifting Fortunes
Bali by the Numbers: A Five Year Comparison of Whats Happened to Bali's Major Inbound Markets.
As a follow on to our coverage [
Bali by the Numbers: June is Bustin' Out All Over
] here's a closer look at what's happened in some of the major source markets for Bali tourism between 2001 through 2005.
Bali's Top Four Markets
Just 5 years ago, in 2001, the four leading inbound markets to Bali were, in order of importance - Japan, Australia, Taiwan and the United Kingdom. Five years on, 2005 is shaping up to become a record breaking year for foreign arrivals with Bali's top four source markets having shifted with Japan, Australia, Taiwan and South Korea now in the top four slots. South Korea managed to creep into 4th place in 2005, moving up from a distant 9th place in 2001. While the U.K. has slipped from being the 4th largest producer of visitors for Bali in 2001 to 7th place in 2005.
Taiwan's prominence in the makeup of Bali's arrival appears to be under serious threat, slipping and likely to soon fall from its "top four ranking," with this market down 35.28% from the first six months in 2004.
Meanwhile, both Australia and Japan are setting new heights in Bali arrivals. Japan arrivals were up 17.5% for the first six months of 2005 as compared to the same period one year before and 3.93% ahead of the record-setting performance for the first six months of 2001. Australian arrivals ignoring boycott calls and travel warnings increased 9.3% for the first six months of 2005; up 11.59% from the previous record set for January-June 2001.
Markets to Keep an Eye On
Aided by discount air fares, Malaysia and Singapore are visiting Bali in record numbers. Reviewing the first six months of 2005 as compared to the same period 5 years before in 2001, Malaysian arrivals have increased 316.53% while Singapore arrivals we up 110.58%.
The Americas, while continuing to improve on a year to year, have still to regain their past glory, down 25.84% in the first six months of 2005 as compared to the same period in 2001.
European arrivals all up significantly from one year ago - are still lagging behind better times in 2001. Figures for the first half of 2005 when compared to the first half of 2001 show a game of "catch up" still being played by the U.K.(-36.71%), Germany (-12.62%), The Netherlands (-5.97%), and France (-8.81%).
Russian travelers to Bali are up 70.8% from five years ago, a number likely to improve with easier visa procedures for Russian visitors coming on line in August 2005.
Also, look for Mainland Chinese visitors to improve dramatically with the introduction of visas-on-arrival starting from August 1, 2005.
Similarly, India arrivals long seen as a sleeping market to Bali should burgeon from August 1, 2005, when visas-on-arrival are scheduled to be introduced for Indian visitors.
Bali Airport: An Aborted Take Off for Tourism?
Editorial: Cultural and Physical Limitations Imposed by Bali's Airport May Offer Almost Insurmountable Limits to Tourism Growth.
In the absence of a well-defined
Master Plan
for Bali and the continuing uncontrolled growth in villas and hotels, themost obvious limit on Bali's future tourism growth is often overlooked - the
carrying capacity
of Bali's Ngurah Rai Airport.
No Where to Grow
Bali's airport is extremely busy handling over an estimated 150 flights each day that bring nearly 20,000 passengers to the island. Meanwhile, the fact that Bali is an island positioned along the middle of the Indonesian archipelago and otherwise only accessible by ship and ferry, render Ngurah Rai's 3,000 meter long runway as the all-important jugular artery for Bali's vital flow of tourists.
With tourism numbers both domestic and international booming, the obvious solution to "grow" the current 6.4 million
estimated maximum carrying capacity
of tourists at Ngurah Rai is to expand the present airport's size.
An Urgent Need
With the potential of of nearly 5 million domestic and international air passengers estimated to pass through Ngurah Rai airport in 2005, Bali is fast approaching the point where it will either have to either expand its airport or sadly discover that its air infrastructure is no longer capable of satisfying the ravenous appetite for more passengers created by the current unbridled growth in villas and hotel roomss.
Although airport authorites insist there are investors eager to underwrite the cost of expanding Bali's airport, physical limitations imposed by the airport geography as well as local cultural limitations make any scheme to expand the airport extremely problematic.
Ngurah Rai Airport occupies nearly 300 hectares of land running east-to-west on the narrow isthmus of land joining Nusa Dua to the island of Bali. Low-lying and bordered by the ocean to the west and mangrove wetlands to the east, the current airport runway - with the exception of a single four-lane road that connects Bali to its southernmost tourism areas - completely dominates the narrow land bridge.
A Situation Where Size Really Does Matter
Ideally, Bali's airport sole runway needs another 1,000 meters added to its current 3,000 meter length to allow jumbo jets to depart fully fueled for long haul flights to Europe, thereby avoiding the current mandatory refueling stop in Singapore.
However, expanding the length of the current runways may prove a near impossible accomplishment. Extending the runways by reclaiming land on the airport's western boundary is seen currently deemed impractical, with engineers concerned that any change in ocean current flows resulting from the required landfill might result in severe erosion along Kuta's beachfront. Meanwhile, expansion of the airport's area on the eastern end of the present runway is strongly opposed by environmentalists concerned for the delicate state of the surrounding mangrove forests.
The Ever Present Need to Consider Balinese Culture
Local Bali-Hindu culture also offers its own set of unique challenges to any plan to extend the present runways. Efforts to expand the southern boundary of the airport, necessary for a possible second runway, have been long-stalled by the inability of airport authorities to come to terms with local villagers who would be displaced by an southward expansion and opposition from religious leaders who fear the possible destruction of a religious site.
Ironically, a creative engineering solution of building a road tunnel under the eastern end of the present runway to enable a runway extension also runs afoul of strongly-held local religious beliefs that prohibit the use road tunnels and roadway overpasses. To those that doubt this, note the abolute lack of pedestrian bridges over any of Bali's busy city streets and highways.
What are the Alternatives?
Faced with these almost insurmountable obstacles to the expansion of Bali's airport, the island has few remaining options at its disposal if it wishes to continue to grow its tourism base at the current pace. Given Bali's mountainous terrain, it will be, at best, difficult to duplicate Ngurah Rais nearly 300 hectare land plot elsewhere on the island without first finding a way to literally move both mountains and ancient sacred religious monuments.
In fact, such is the present impasse and the growing desperation of local government officials in finding ways to handle anticipated growth in arrival numbers that plans are being actively discussed on how to restart Lombok's stalled international airport project as a means of accommodating the surplus of air travelers who may soon exceed Bali airport's carrying capacity.
Time to Freeze New Development?
In the absence of any concrete plan that will quickly expand the number of passengers that can be handled by Bali's airport, it may well be that the most prudent plan of action for the Government is to freeze permits for the construction of more hotel or villa rooms until Bali discovers a viable way to welcome the air passengers needed to fill those rooms.
The Key is Understanding - The Bali Declaration
President Tells Interfaith Meeting to Accommodate All Opinions in Dialogue on Faith.
President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono used the occasion of the opening of the
AEM Interfaith Conference
at the
Bali International Convention Center
on July 21, 2005, to encourage that even militant voices be granted the chance to be heard in the dialogue to discover common grounds of understanding between the world's great religions.
President Susilo, quoted by the National News Service
said, "the dialogue should involve groups representing all faiths. Every voice including those from the so-called militant groups should be heard."
The President's comments formed part of welcoming remarks to the conference hosting representatives from 39 ASEM partners and international observers, government officials, intellectuals, senior journalists and the religious leaders representing, Islam, Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism, and Judaism.
The Bali Declaration
At the close of the two-day meeting, the participants passed the "Bali Declaration on Building Interfaith Harmony" that:
Expressed sympathy for victims of the London terror attack on July 7, 2005 and all earlier such attacks, including the Bali bombing of October 12, 2002.
Reaffirmed the importance of religious freedom in an international atmosphere of peace, tolerance, mutual understanding and respect.
Acknowledged the wisdom of the world's faiths and religions.
Acknowledged the various international initiatives promoting dialogue and cooperation among different religions.
Proclaimed that all the religions represented at the Conference commonly advocate peace, compassion, and tolerance among mankind.
Proclaimed that the right of individual to choose religion or faith can contribute to upholding respect for the diversity of faiths and religions, which is essential in combating ideologies based on extremism, intolerance, hatred, and the use of violence.
Proclaimed the need for people of different religions and faiths to stand united against the use of violence to divide mankind; calling on all people to speak up against those who use religion to rationalize terrorism and murder.
Proclaimed that peace, justice, compassion, and tolerance need to be cultivated and nurtured to help create an environment conducive to building harmony within the international community and people.
Called on their governments to continue to promote interfaith dialogue.
Encouraged governments to incorporate interfaith studies in curricula at the post-elementary level to promote understanding and respect for the various faiths and religions, giving due consideration to the specific circumstances of the respective countries.
Encouraged research through seminars/workshops and other activities to define educational curricula that promote and strengthen interfaith dialogue.
Called to strengthen cooperation on enhancing the capacity of human resources through exchanges of students, teachers and youth.

Nationwide Crackdown on Illegal Gambling Includes Police Raid on Grand Bali Beach Hotel.
When Indonesia's new Chief of Police, General Sutanto pledged to eliminate gambling in Indonesia and gave his regional police chiefs just one week to eradicate illegal gaming in their precincts of operation, the word on the street was that Jakarta bookies wasted no time in laying heavy odds against the success of the much publicized "get tough" campaign on gambling.
Undeterred by skeptics and Nay Sayers, General Sutanto even went so far as to demand a written undertaking from each of his provincial police chiefs acknowledging that if they failed in the gambling clean-up they were prepared to accept replacement.
Meanwhile, those discounting the efficacy and sincerity of the new anti-gambling campaign have been quoted in the national press, saying only small-time gamblers and numbers runners were being targeted in the crackdown, while large-scale illegal casinos across the Country remained untouched; rendered untouchable behind a protective wall of official protection.
Bali Police Raid Grand Bali Beach
Locals in Bali awoke to the startling page-one story on Friday morning's
Bali Post
that during the night of Thursday, Julyy 21, 2005, nearly 100 members of the Bali police conducted sweeping raid on the historically famous
Inna Grand Bali Beach
- the tallest and one of the oldest hotels on the island.
The raid, which got underway at 10:30 p.m. local time, targeted the luxurious 10th floor supper club of the 574-room hotel which, according to the Hotel's Public Relation's Officer and General Manager, quoted in
Bali Post
, has been rented two month's ago on a 5 year contract to a local businessman of Korean heritage at a cost of Rp. 28 million (approximately US$2,850) per month. The businessman had even obtained an official government business permit for the operation of a pin-ball and similar skill-based parlor games, activities allowed in Indonesia providing they do not involve gambling.
According to press reports, when police arrived at the scene they found a well-equipped casino with around 30 jackpot machines, a number of felt-covered gaming tables including a roulette table, and wide range of other gambling paraphernalia. Missing from the scene however, were the actual
and the owner/managers of the facility, apparently warned in advance of the raid of the police's impending arrival. Quoted in the
Bali Post,
the Chief of the South Denpasar Police Precinct, Gede Adhi, said, "I am also amazed that such a well-organized raid was leaked (to the casino)."
Meanwhile, the hotel's management has issued statements to the local press disavowing any knowledge of the illegal gambling den operating in their hotel, claiming they were strictly barred from entering the floor by the tenant.
Bali police continue their investigation, including interviewing a number of staff of the illegal casino netted in the raid.
Bali's Chief of Police Made Mangku Pastika, while admitting prosecutions in connection with the
Inna Grand Bali Beach
raid are made problematic by the failure to catch gamblers "in the act," renewed his promise to crack down on gambling, inviting those involved to gambling to take their equipment and leave the island immediately.
If required, Chief Pastika said he would sweep every hotel in Bali to ensure illegal casinos were not in operation.
According to Hotel sources, the management has received a reprimand letter from Bali's Chief of Police ordering that the 10th floor supper club be put under lock and seal for an indefinite period of time.
Cock - A - Doodle AhChooooo!
Agricultural Minister Calls on Bali to Prevent the Spread of Bird Flu.
Indonesia's Minister of Agriculture, Dr. Ir. Anton Apriantono, called on Bali's Governor, Made Beratha, to anticipate the risk of Bird Flu, or
Avian Influenza,
by tightening controls on the importation of birds and other animals to the island.
The Minister's comments, made during a visit to Bali on July 19, 2005, follow on the heels of 3 confirmed deaths in Tangerang, on Jakarta's outskirts, attrributed to
Avian Influenza.
Reminding the Balinese that bird flu can be transmitted from poultry to pigs, the Minister said, "I know that many people raise pigs in Bali, often in areas close to dwellings and areas used for raising poultry." In comments quoted in the Indonesian-language
Bali Post,
the Minister suggested that private dwellings, poultry producing areas and pig sties should be well separated form each other to prevent the spread of the disease.
In response to the potential threat of Bird Flu, areas in West Java where the disease has been confirmed are undertaking the culling or inoculation of poultry and swine populations that may have been exposed to the disease.

Business as Usual at Bali Night Spots
Bali's Entertainment Venues Remain Defiant in Their Refusal to Follow President and Governor's Call for 1:00 a.m. Closing Time.
Despite an official call for earlier closing times at Bali night spots [
See: New Energy Policy Puts Bali Night Life in Limbo
], late-night entertainment venues continue "business as usual" with many popular late-night haunts staying open to 3:00 a.m. and beyond.
Energy-saving suggestions from President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono and Bali's Governor Made Beratha that night spots close at 1:00 a.m. or face the threat of permanent closure are at least for the moment being largely being ignored by local business operators.
The former chairman of the Bali Chapter of the
Indonesian Hotel and Restaurant Association (PHRI)
, Nyoman Ruth Addy, told the
Bali Post
that the Governor's recommendations need to be reviewed again in light of the possible damage early closing would have on many Kuta-based businesses and the much-needed public taxes paid by those venues.
Meanwhile, the head of
, a local community-based organization in Kuta, Made Sukadana, freely admitted that the Government's early closing time was not being obeyed with some late night spots creating significant negative effects on the local community, including serving alcohol to under-aged customers. According to Sukadana, quoted in the
Bali Post,
if Bali wants to create cultural tourism, then there needs to be limitations on the type of evening entertainment and their hours of operation. He said he hope the Governor would strengthen his reecnt recommendation on closing times with a concrete action plan.
Shortly after the Governor's announcement and in what appears as open defiance of his recommendation for a 1:00 a.m. closing time, a leading Seminyak night spot circulated public advertisements to its 5th anniversary party scheduled for July 23, 2005, inviting guest to celebrate from 7:00 p.m. until 4:00 a.m., well beyond the recommended revised closing time of 1:00 a.m..
Adding even more confusion among local businesspeople trying to understand how best to weigh commercial considerations against the latest energy saving edicts from the Government, Indonesia's Minister of Culture and Tourism, Jero Wacik, told the local Bali press on Friday, July 22, 2005, that energy saving measures were aimed at "non-productive activities." Quoted in the Indonesian-language
, the Minister said that night spots able to attract customers were considered still productive, earning incomes and thereofe should not be limited in their opening hours.

Ethereal and dream-like, Renate's paintings bring her love of dance to canvas, expressing a moving world like the slow rising smoke of incense in a Balinese offering or the craggy limestone cliffs of Toraja in Sulawesi.
"Elements" ? paintings by Renate Faulhaber - will be on display daily from 10:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m. at the
Ganesha Gallery

National Polio Cases Now Stand at 155
Despite More Infections, Dissease Not Seen as Threat to Bali Travelers.
The World Heath Organization
has confirmed 33 new case of polio infection in Indonesia, bringing the number of cases detected in the current outbreak to 155.
The crippling and potentially fatal disease which attacks the nervous system, reappeared on April 21, 2005 in West Java after a nearly ten year absence.
In response to the outbreak, authorities have vaccinated nearly 6.5 million children, in West Java where all of the new cases of the disease have appeared.
Another round of free public vaccinations for an additional 24 million Indonesian children is scheduled for August 30 September 27, 2005.
Indonesia Not Issuing Travel Advisories
How Indonesia's Department of Foreign Affairs Views the Need for Travel Advisories.
Despite the recent terrorist bombings on the London Transport System, Indonesias Department of Foreign Affairs
is not
issuing travel warnings advising its nationals to avoid visiting London or the United Kingdom.
According to the Secretary General of the Department of Foreign Affairs, Sudjadnan Parnohadiningrat, the Indonesian Government does not view any specific country as being at greater risk of terrorist attacks and, as a result, is not issuing terror-related travel warnings.
According to Sudjadnan, who once served as Indonesia's Ambassador to Australia, "dangerous situations can develop anywhere, so we do not differentiate one country as being more dangerous than another."
Sudjadnan explained that, on the domestic front, the Indonesian Government continues to warns managers of public venues to exercise caution in how they operate in order to minimize the risk of crowded public places becoming easy terrorist targets.

Jakarta Police Catch 4 Tax Manipulators at Airport
Police Bust Syndicate Issuing False Fiscal Clearances.
The Indonesian-language
Bali Post
reports that 4 people were arrested on Thursday, July 21, 2005, by members of the Capital City's Special Police Reserve and charged with manipulating the Rp. 1 million (approximately US$102) fiscal clearance tax that must be paid by Indonesian residents when they travel abroad.
The four arrested, including an immigration official and two members of airport security force, reportedly approached departing passengers offering them hefty discounts on the fiscal departure tax and then issued counterfeit tax forms bearing an illegal rubber stamp. In making the arrest police seized hundreds of coumterfeit receipts and illegal rubber chops.
Police are still trying to estimate the loss suffered to the public coffers caused by the syndicates activities before they file formal corruption charges with the State prosecutor.

Well, "replacing" would certainly be a bad idea, for at least a couple of
1) OpenVPN is less interoperable then IPsec, since you won't find it on
many commercial routers.
2) Tunneling through a user program is considerably more CPU-intensive,
which is a significant factor on hardware like Soekris and WRAP boards.

How about just investigating what's wrong when your IPsec tunnel stops
working? Did you ever get the PPTP link set up so you can view the state
of the remote without depending on IPsec? Fixing something that almost
works is likely to be easier than implementing something entirely new.

It turns out that Moab (and Maui I suppose) both called functions not in the pbs_ifl.h file, and had incorrect declarations for these functions. Since you're doing this in Maui, you may need to update the source code to use the same declaration as is in the pbs_ifl.h file. I apologize for this inconvenience, we should've put this in the release notes but we just didn't know that this bug went all the way back to Maui.

Should You Get A Nose Job?
Thank you for your question. As others have stated that is a decision that you will have to make yourself. No Plastic Surgeon should tell you that you need an elective cosmetic operation.
All we can do is tell you whether an improvement is possible. From your photos I would say that the size of your nose can be reduced and the tip of your nose refined. Good luck with your decision.

Should I get a rhinoplasty?
You appear to have a wide tip to your nose. Medically we call that a bulbous tip. It is certainly normal to have a wide tip and most people with a wide tip are not bothered by it but this does not seem to be the case for you. There are surgical ways to reshape your nose and make it thinner. If it has bothered you for a long time and you feel self-conscious about it then I would recommend at least getting an individualized consultation to explore the possible surgical options. Ultimately the decision is up to you.

Is rhinoplasty worth it?
From your photos you do appear to be a candidate for rhinoplasty. The decision whether it is worth it is really yours. It sounds like your nose has bothered you for a long time, which is important when considering surgery.
Rhinoplasty could be done to rebalance the shape and size of your nose to better fit in with the rest of your face. Preoperative digital morphing with your surgery would be very helpful in coming up with a specific surgical plan.

Should I Get a Nose Job?
Having a Rhinoplasty is a very personal decision. I know because I had one when I was in college. You have to do this for you and not for anyone else. I always looked in the mirror and saw my nose not my face. I knew it was something I wanted to do for myself. Having the surgery was the best thing I ever did for myself. For me, it changed the way I looked and felt. Be true to yourself. If you choose the right surgeon and express your desires in detail then you will have an amazing result. You have to choose a surgeon who has a passion for Rhinoplasty surgery and is board certified. It is my favorite cosmetic procedure and I spend hours studying the nose because I am obsessed with mastering Rhinoplasty surgery. That is the kind of surgeon you want operating on you. Go for it! You won't regret it if you do your homework.
Should I Get a Nose Job?
Having ANY cosmetic surgery is a very personal decision, that ONLY you can make. Best is to obtain IN PERSON evaluations from boarded docs in your area.
Rhinoplasty worth it?
Based on your photos it appears that you would be a good candidate for rhinoplasty, such as the example in the link below

If you are considering undergoing a rhinoplasty, you should go for an evaluation with a board certified plastic surgeon or ENT doctor. They can review your concerns and review a surgical plan with you.
Nose Job or Not?
The decision to proceed with any elective procedure is obviously a very personal one which only you as a patient can and should decide but as physicians we can guide you to determine what options are available that might improve those areas that bother you to enhance your appearance. My philosophy is that the goal of rhinoplasty surgery should be to actually draw attention "away" from the nose by balancing it with other features and removing obvious distortions or asymmetries. From the photos you provided, it appears that the tip is overprojected slightly which is accentuated by the bridge of your nose being too low. To achieve the most desirable result, correction of both issues to create a more balanced appearance may be considered. Also, the tip of your nose is slightly widened and boxy which could be improved with tip refining/narrowing procedures. I also agree with the other reviewers that your chin appears underprojected which can make the nose appear even more prominent and the facial features unbalanced. Ultimately, the best thing you can do is seek a personal consultation with experienced rhinoplasty surgeons who can more thoroughly explain your options. Best of luck!

Aesthetically speaking the nose is wide with a wide tip and a rotation that appears to be at the upper aesthetic limit of 115 degrees (makes it look short and upturned). The chin is also weak which gives the false imnpression of the nose being over-projected.
A Chin Implant would balance the lower face while a Rhinoplasty would narrow and make the nose more feminine and refined. Is this something that you "should do"? This is a personal decision that only you can make. Hope this helps.

For the coriolis force to balance the pressure gradient force, the wind must blow parallel to the coast, with high pressure to the right and low pressure to the left. That way, the horizontal pressure gradient is trying to accelerate the air to the left, and the coriolis force is trying to accelerate the air to the right. At just the right wind speed, the two forces cancel and the air blows steadily.
This is really weird, folks! It made sense when the wind blew from high to low pressure, but now we're talking about air blowing at right angles to the pressure gradient! Strange, but true. This is what happens within the larger-scale weather systems that last for more than several hours. The wind blows at right angles to the pressure gradient, with high pressure to its right and low pressure to its left, and its speed is proportional to the magnitude of the pressure gradient. Only by doing this can the forces balance and the air keep its acceleration to a minimum. This balance of forces is called geostrophic balance, and the wind speed and direction necessary to attain geostrophic balance is called the geostrophic wind.
How do you estimate this wind on a map? Actually, it's simple. Consider the surface pressure map below. The black lines are the isobars, or lines of constant pressure.
If the wind is to blow at right angles to the pressure gradient, it must blow in a direction such that pressure neither decreases or increases. Thus, it follows the isobars, the lines of constant pressure on a weather map! As for the speed, you should know that the closer together the isobars, the stronger the pressure gradient. Therefore, the geostrophic wind speed is stronger where the isobars are closer together.
Now think about direction. If high pressure must always be to the right, then air must circulate clockwise around a high pressure center and counterclockwise around a low pressure center. Check it out on the map and you'll see how it works. On TV, they always tell you that the wind circulates counterclockwise around a low pressure center, but they never tell you why. Well, this is why.
