To Whom It May Concern:
This letter is my personal recommendation for Joe Rhoney. Until just recently, I have been Joe's immediate supervisor for a couple years. He was a team player and took ownership of his given assignments.
Besides being a team player, Joe responded well to correction when needed. He also consistently looked for advice and direction on areas where he could improve. During his tenure, we saw he was able to work well in a team environment as well as learn and adapt quickly to new challenges.
I highly recommend Joe for employment. He is a team player and would make a great asset to any organization.

To whom it may concern:
This is a letter of introduction and recommendation for Joe Rhoney. Joe was an important part of our team here at Entrepreneur.com for 18 months. His background as a freelance web designer enabled him to transition into our deadline-driven work environment much faster than most developers and designers.
Among other things, we gave Joe ownership of our e-commerce sites, smallbizbooks.com and entrepreneurpress.com. He was also the person in charge of posting Entrepreneur magazine online each month—assembling the art, online exclusives and working with the editorial staff to make sure the edits were in place by our deadline. He resolved a number of issues with the e-commerce sites and developed a new, more efficient, system for posting the magazine—which eliminated bottlenecks and freed up time for him and our editors to pursue new projects.
He is also very skilled at finding ways of accomplishing challenging design compositions, while still maintaining cross-browser appearance and functionality. Joe's design work is above average in quality and aesthetics and it doesn't detract from his ability to meet a deadline.
Joe frequently took on additional projects both to challenge himself and benefit the team as a whole. He often brought new ideas, technologies or design elements to my attention which were often incorporated into our projects. He has never been averse to taking on a new task and learning on the fly.
If you have any questions about Joe or his duties here, please don't hesitate to contact me.
Dave Pomije
VP, Site Development
Entrepreneur Media, Inc.
I have to commend you on the work you did for my customer. The art looked great! It was exactly what he wanted and more. He liked the art so much that he tripled the order.
There have been many other jobs you've done great illustrations and layouts for as well, and these are all very much appreciated.
Thank you.

Arsenal v Newcastle United Live Online
Watch Arsenal vs Newcastle United live online at www.free-football.tv. The live streaming soccer feeds offered here makes it easy to watch Premiership live throughout the season. Arsenal take on Newcastle United in their next Premiership match as they look to maintain pressure on Manchester United at the top of the league table.
Arsenal enjoyed a comfortable outing in their 3-0 victory over Newcastle in their FA Cup clash on Saturday. After a quiet first half, the game exploded to life in the 51st minute when Emmanuel Adebayor put his side in the lead by scoring the 100th goal at the Emirates Stadium.
The Togo international bagged his second of the night seven minutes from the final whistle while Nicky Butt scored an own goal in the 89th minute as Newcastle suffered their first defeat under Kevin Keegan's second stint as the Newcastle manager.
Robin Van Persie continues to be out with a thigh injury while Gail Clichy and Philip Senderos are both doubtful for the clash against Newcastle with a groin injury and a broken nose respectively.
Meanwhile Kevin Keegan will be hoping that his team will put up an improved performance when they face Arsenal for the second time in four days. While the Magpies showed flair in their attacking moves, it was the defense that let them down once again as Newcastle conceded soft goals.
Newcastle are expected to re-sign Middlesbrough defender Jonathan Woodgate from who had left the club to join Real Madrid before signing for Boro. Mark Viduka continues to remain very doubtful for the clash as he is yet to recover from a calf injury.

Minister Congratulates MPI For US Agreement
Hon Kate Wilkinson
Minister for Food Safety
14 December 2012 Media Statement
Minister Congratulates MPI For US Agreement
Food Safety Minister Kate Wilkinson has congratulated the Ministry for Primary Industries for making us the first country to sign a Food Safety Systems Recognition Arrangement with the US Food and Drug Administration.
The signing took place at a meeting in Washington DC earlier this week. It means that New Zealand and the United States recognise each other's food safety systems as providing a comparable degree of food safety assurance.
This is the first time the FDA has recognised another country's food safety system as comparable to its own.
"I congratulate the Ministry for Primary Industries and the FDA for working together to reach this excellent achievement," Ms Wilkinson says.
"Such systems recognition agreements can help us maximise export opportunities as they provide for increased international consumer confidence and greater commercial certainty for both importers and exporters."
The agreement covers all foods and animal feeds regulated by the FDA, which equates to $1.5 billion of New Zealand's current exports of primary products.
Both countries intend to use the agreement to lessen the potential regulatory burden for foods traded between the countries by removing unnecessary duplicative activities.
The agreement follows a comprehensive review of each country's relevant laws and regulations, inspection programmes, response to food-related illness and outbreaks, compliance and enforcement, and laboratory support.

Roasted Banana-and-Macadamia Pudding Cake
"With the English influence here in Kenya, there's a huge amount of pudding," explains Hubert Des Marais of this equatorial spin on the classic British dessert. To keep as many ingredients of African origin as possible, he suggests spiking the honey cream with Amarula Cream, an intensely sweet South African liqueur made from the marula fruit—said to be a favorite snack of grazing elephants.
Slideshow: More Fruit Desserts
- Active:
- Total Time:
- Servings: Makes one 9-by-13-inch cake
- 2 large, ripe bananas, unpeeled
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups sugar
- 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 1/2 cups buttermilk
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon finely grated orange zest
- 1 1/2 cups unsalted roasted macadamia nuts, coarsely chopped
- 1/4 cup plain whole-milk yogurt
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 teaspoon finely grated lime zest
- 1/4 teaspoon finely grated orange zest
- 2 tablespoons Amarula Cream liqueur or Kahlua
- 2/3 cup heavy cream
How to make this recipe
Preheat the oven to 350°. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Put the bananas on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for about 45 minutes, until dark and soft. Let the bananas cool, then open the peel and scoop the roasted banana pulp into a large bowl.
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ground cloves, freshly grated nutmeg and salt.
Using a handheld electric mixer, beat the roasted bananas with the sugar until a puree forms. Then beat in the eggs. In a small bowl, stir together the buttermilk and baking soda, then add to the banana mixture. At low speed, gradually beat in the flour mixture. Gently beat in the melted butter, heavy cream and finely grated orange zest. Fold in the macadamia nuts. Spread the batter in the prepared dish and bake for about 1 hour, until a cake tester inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. Let the cake cool to warm.
In a small bowl, whisk the yogurt with the honey, finely grated lime zest, finely grated orange zest and the liqueur. In a large bowl, beat the heavy cream until softly whipped. Gently fold in the honey-yogurt.
Cut the cake into squares and serve with dollops of the honey cream.
Make Ahead
The honey cream can be refrigerated overnight. Gently whip before serving.

| Abstract of the presentation for FDA?s public meeting on Part11 on June 11,2004
Topic: Legacy Systems
Legacy Systems are systems that are in use prior to Part11 introduction i.e. August 1997. These systems have undergone various updates.
1. With the fast evolving technology, the legacy systems have undergone various changes and some of the systems have totally changed with some only partially. How much modification a system has to undergo to move from LEGACY status to Non-LEGACY status.
As we all know there are lot of differences in the validation approaches that are required for both categories of the systems.
2. From August 1997 till few years back, because of vast altitude in Part11 interpretation there have been lot of systems that were introduced and could not follow Part11 requirements due to the stated reason. What are the expectations of FDA in terms of their (those system?s) compliance to Part11?
It is worth mentioning here that remediation effort will entail lot of investments in terms of time and other resources and what kind of time frame FDA will allow for remediation effort?
Enforcement discretion in this regard from FDA will allow industries to continue to focus and adopt new technologies.
Topic: Should Part11 address record conversion?
But before that FDA should clearly indicate what records they want industry to retain. Only the RAW DATA with complete processing capability or PROCESSED DATA. The ambiguity comes from predicate rules that state that raw data should be available.
If raw data is to retained then the Hardware and software required to process that data will also required to be retained, which entails very high data maintenance costs.
Topic: Risk Based Approaches
Risk assessments should be based on:
| ? System level and records level
? System?s impact on company?s GxP systems;
? System?s complexity that will decide whether the system requires multiple security provisions;
? System developer?s quality systems.

Owen Jones on the Occupy movement | The break-up of the eurozone | Steve Jobs's genius | Albie Sachs Sign up for our weekly email * Print HTML In this week's New Statesman, Owen Jones speaks to protesters at the St Paul's Occupation about "the fastest-growing political force on earth", now staging demonstrations in a thousand cities across the globe. Jones notes the distance of both the unions and the Labour Party from the movement, and asks whether it could be the progressives' Tea Party. In a guest-written Politics column, after the largest Tory rebellion against the government in living memory Conservative MP Jesse Norman insists that the party remains "remarkably united over the EU issue" and behind David Cameron, whilst Mark Leonard, director of the European Council on Foreign Relations, warns that the break-up of the European Union is quite possible and that a marginalised Britain makes it even more likely. Meanwhile, Jonathan Derbyshire talks to South African lawyer and anti-apartheid campaigner Albie Sachs about the importance of "truth and reconciliation", and Bryan Appleyard wonders whether the death of Apple's chief executive, Steve Jobs, spells the end of America's age of innovation.

Forza is the latest racer to embrace the drive-where-you-want ethos of open-world design.
And the change of pace – as well as a switch in developer – results in one of the series' most engrossing instalments.
Horizon takes Forza 4's obsession for car simulation and sticks it in the middle of a Glastonbury-esque festival in Colorado.
The dusty streets and colossal freeways are yours to cruise and you'll encounter loads of race-related distractions along the way. Behind the wheel, Horizon finds a comfortable medium between authentic simulation and arcade-style flair – but it's a realistic Forza experience under the hood. Handling is responsive and satisfying and players will discover a new mix of assisted yet thrilling off-road racing too.
An RPG-style points system and countless hidden upgrades ensure exploration is consistently rewarding and entertaining.
But long-term fans should not expect the comprehensive list of customisation and online features the main series has become famous for.

Falbo Bros brings a different perspective to the pizza franchising industry. First of all our pizza is unique, as are our concepts. Our main focus will always be quality. We cannot emphasize this enough. Each of our current locations emphasize quality first. Falbo Bros' goal is to expand nationwide. It is an exciting time to get in the ground floor of a unique business concept.
Maybe if you want to own a Dominos or Pizza Hut but not with us. The originators of Falbo Bros. were 22 year old college students. All of our current franchisees started when they were in their early 20's. Falbo Bros is looking for talent, not wealth.
Because we are currently a smaller operation (when compared to a Papa John's) we do not have a large franchise fee. Our franchise fee is based on the actual costs incurred by Falbo Bros. Pizzeria Inc. to help you get started. Right now with legal fees, travel, etc. the cost is $10K-$15K.
Between $40,000-$200,000 depending mostly on the build out costs. Costs run more when you have to build out a pizzeria from a space that starts empty. If you are fortunate enough to find a space that has already been built out for food service, costs are drastically decreased. Most of the initial cost incurred involves venting, electrical, and other general contracting work. For example a typical ventilation system runs around $15,000. if you can find one that is already put in then you can save that.
3%, but not initially. We want you to succeed and we know that in the beginning costs are higher and sales are lower so the fee gradually increases over the first 12 months, topping out at 3%. This fee is the lowest in the business. Unlike most franchises we do not have national advertising fund contribution (wouldn't make sense given our current size).
In all 50 states.
It is not required as many franchisors may wish to own multiple stores. But a word to the wise, make your presence felt. We strongly recommend working in the store which you own. After all, it is your money passing through the business.
The amount of profit or loss is dependent on a number of factors, including the ability of the franchisee to manage the business, drive sales volume and control operating costs. We provide the ground work and product that has been proven successful, the rest is up to you.
Absolutely. We will be there every step of the way to get your pizzeria started. We will help with site selection, equipment, staff training, suppliers, licenses, permits, and store design.
We are always here to help. Most franchisees are very good business people who take pride in accomplishing things on their own. However we have the experience to make sure your operation runs smoothly and if there are ever any questions to be answered feel free to ask. We will not dictate how you run your day to day operating but will provide certain guidelines to follow.
Eventually we want every person in the US to say they have had a Falbo Bros. pizza. However our goal is to have each store be a unique. Quality and pizza style will remain consistent at each location but we encourage franchisees to be creative with their menu and add additional local flavor in addition to our standard fare. Yes we want to be a large franchise but we don't want to lose the concept of our unique style that made us popular.
Currently we do not. We will offer suggestions but you will have to bring your own money to the table.
While restaurant experience is nice, training and support is provided. Therefore no restaurant or pizzeria experience is necessary, just a positive attitude and willingness to learn and succeed.
Please contact us. Serious inquiries only.

Kobe, Japan (SPX) Aug 06, 2013
By exploiting the full computational power of the Japanese supercomputer, K computer, researchers from the RIKEN HPCI Program for Computational Life Sciences, the Okinawa Institute of Technology Graduate University (OIST) in Japan and Forschungszentrum Julich in Germany have carried out the largest general neuronal network simulation to date.
The simulation was made possible by the development of advanced novel data structures for the simulation software NEST. The relevance of the achievement for neuroscience lies in the fact that NEST is open-source software freely available to every scientist in the world.
Using NEST, the team, led by Markus Diesmann in collaboration with Abigail Morrison both now with the Institute of Neuroscience and Medicine at Julich, succeeded in simulating a network consisting of 1.73 billion nerve cells connected by 10.4 trillion synapses. To realize this feat, the program recruited 82,944 processors of the K computer. The process took 40 minutes to complete the simulation of 1 second of neuronal network activity in real, biological, time.
Although the simulated network is huge, it only represents 1% of the neuronal network in the brain. The nerve cells were randomly connected and the simulation itself was not supposed to provide new insight into the brain - the purpose of the endeavor was to test the limits of the simulation technology developed in the project and the capabilities of K. In the process, the researchers gathered invaluable experience that will guide them in the construction of novel simulation software.
This achievement gives neuroscientists a glimpse of what will be possible in the future, with the next generation of computers, so called exa-scale computers.
"If peta-scale computers like the K computer are capable of representing 1% of the network of a human brain today, then we know that simulating the whole brain at the level of the individual nerve cell and its synapses will be possible with exa-scale computers hopefully available within the next decade," explains Diesmann.
Memory of 250.000 PCs
More important than the number of neurons in the simulated network is the fact that during the simulation each synapse between excitatory neurons was supplied with 24 bytes of memory. This enabled an accurate mathematical description of the network.
In total, the simulator coordinated the use of about 1 petabyte of main memory, which corresponds to the aggregated memory of 250.000 PCs.
A large, international project
Mitsuhisa Sato, of the RIKEN Advanced Institute for Computer Science, points out that: "Many researchers at many different Japanese and European institutions have been involved in this project, but the dedication of Jun Igarashi now at OIST, Gen Masumoto now at the RIKEN Advanced Center for Computing and Communication, Susanne Kunkel and Moritz Helias now at Forschungszentrum Julich was key to the success of the endeavor."
Paving the way for future projects
The achievement on K provides new technology for brain research in Japan and is encouraging news for the Human Brain Project (HBP) of the European Union, scheduled to start this October. The central supercomputer for this project will be based at Forschungszentrum Julich.
The researchers in Japan and Germany are planning on continuing their successful collaboration in the upcoming era of exa-scale systems.

Ask Health Experts and Get Answers to Your Health Question ASAP
Hello,This was a urine test, correct?Were you having any burning with urination?Were you urinating more frequently?
Yes I did.
From the report:
Urinalysis Gross Exam
Specific Gravity: 1.020
pH: 7.0
Urine Color: Yellow
WBC Esterase: 1+ Abnormal
Protein: Trace
glucose: negative
ketones: negative
occult blood: negative
bilirubin: negative
urobilinogen, Semi-Qn: 0.0
nitrite, urine: negative
Microspcopic examination:
Epithelial Cells (non renal) : >10 Abnormal
mucus threads: present
bacteria: few
Do you need more information?
Thank you for the additional information, it was exactly what I needed.The WBC esterase can be a sign of a urinary tract infection. It is an enzyme that is released by white blood cells.Your urinalysis did show that you had some epithelial cells, so it was not a great specimen (not a good clean catch) and was contaminated with some vaginal skin cells.Since your WBC's were low, you likely do not actually have a true urinary tract infection, especially because you do not have any symptoms.I would consider sending the urine for a culture to confirm that no bacteria grow though.Let me know if you have any other questions or if my answer isn't clear.

When Harvey learned that his melanoma had spread to his lungs in the winter of 2008, he started planning for his death. Despite a down market, he liquidated his stock-market assets to ensure his wife wasn't doubly burdened.
He moved the investment firm in which he is a partner to a smaller space. He didn't take an office - he figured that with his fatal skin cancer he wouldn't live long enough to use it. He hated waste.
"Everybody goes," Harvey (who asked that his surname not be used) said matter-of-factly in the boardroom of his downtown Toronto office.
More than two years later, Harvey, wearing a navy blue suit and tie, is at work on a sunny spring day. Aged 77, he self-consciously pats his thinning scalp. "I used to have a full head of hair," he explains.
Not that he's complaining. In January, Harvey started taking a drug known as PLX4032 in a clinical trial in Philadelphia. If it weren't for those pills - three, vitamin-sized ones in the morning and another three at night - he would be near death.
He points to his chest, where 2.1- and 1.4-centimetre cancers had been found in his lungs. "My tumours," he says now, "are almost imperceptible."
Researchers have made a remarkable breakthrough in the treatment of one of cancer's deadliest forms - about 5,000 Canadians were diagnosed with malignant melanoma last year.
Harvey's new cancer therapy is tailored to a genetic mutation called B-RAF, which affects roughly 60 per cent of patients with melanoma. And it's shrinking tumours, many by more than a third.
It's a significant shift for a disease that had not seen progress for four decades. And it illustrates the power of what is called personalized medicine.
Instead of developing drugs that destroy fast-growing cells - normal as well as cancerous ones, a method that seldom works with later-stage cancer - scientists are now looking to slow or stop the genetic mutations that fuel cancer's growth. And the approach is tailored to patients depending on individual mutations.
It's all about providing the right therapy to the right patient, improving care and even saving money.
At no time has a breakthrough ever been more needed. Unless progress is made in controlling cancer, an estimated 27 million new cases will be diagnosed worldwide by 2050, creating a huge economic and health-care burden.
As a result, research is happening at a dizzying rate: The International Cancer Genome Consortium announced that it is working to catalogue the genetic changes of the 50 most common cancers - 500 genomes from each cancer type.
That makes it the most ambitious biomedical research effort since the Human Genome Project (the international effort to map human genes that was completed in spring, 2003).
For a wretched disease with an equally wretched prognosis (most patients with Stage-4 melanoma die within a year after the cancer has spread), the PLX4032 treatment is a first. Patients at death's door, some unable to get out of bed or hold down food, are now working, shopping and enjoying life - an average of six months more of it.
"We're more than one and a half years out now from the initial studies," said Keith Flaherty, a medical oncologist who led the first trial of the drug PLX4032 while he was at the University of Pennsylvania.
"One and a half years [of survival] in melanoma, is phenomenal. … This is a massive change, to have it under control."
Developing targeted therapies that cause programmed cell death is "our only road forward," according to Dr. Flaherty, who is now director of developmental therapeutics at the Massachusetts General Hospital.
PLX4032 - so new it is not commercially available - is the only targeted therapy for melanoma that works.
But it is not the only targeted cancer medicine. Gleevec turned a potentially killer disease - chronic myeloid leukemia - into a chronic one. Herceptin transformed one of the most aggressive forms of breast cancer into one of the most curable.
Both drugs focus on genetic mutations acquired later in life - ones that are not inborn and are therefore not passed on to children.
These genetic triggers are at the heart of current cancer research. They provide constant signals to cells to reproduce; they are the automotive equivalent to pressing the accelerator in a car. A new drug such as PLX4032 offers the brake.
"We're sequencing a whole genome here. We're going to sequence thousands of cancer-genome tests," said Tom Hudson, president and scientific director of the Ontario Institute for Cancer Research.
"There's going to be a generation of useful tests and drug combinations. In cancer, you don't want to develop a new drug if the target isn't known in advance."Report Typo/Error

It's that time of the year again, where every blogger and their mother trots out their year-end lists of best or favorite music, movies, books, graphic novels, viral videos, greeting cards, dog toys, and whatnot. (And, of course, we here at CaPC are not immune.)Indeed, there are so many year-end lists that sometimes, it can be rather daunting to figure out which lists to look at, or where to even begin looking. Well, fear no more. Here are year-end lists (and lists of lists) that will give … [Read more...]

What Would You Do If You Saw a Man about to Be Crushed by a Subway?
Newspapers have been hit hard in recent years. Even such venerable and influential papers as The New York Times have had to make sacrifices to stay afloat as revenue shrinks and as digital and online sources for news grow in popularity. So, from that perspective, perhaps it's not too surprising that the editors of The New York Post would choose to publish a photo of a man about to be crushed by an oncoming subway on the front page of their December 4, 2012, edition. Such a shocking and … [Read more...]
Neil deGrasse Tyson and the Purpose of the Universe
In recent years, Neil deGrasse Tyson has become one of science's most popular evangelists and communicators, and for good reason. The astrophysicist is funny, witty, and quite affable, and his media savvy -- consider his various appearances on The Daily Show and The Colbert Report -- handily undermines the popular (mis)conception of scientists as bumbling, anti-social dweebs. And if that weren't enough, he's pinpointed Superman's birth planet of Krypton for DC Comics and he's even been the the in … [Read more...]

Does Technology Prevent Us From Being More Thoughtful About Technology?
You've probably noticed that one of the recurring themes in my articles here on CAPC concerns the ever-increasing presence of technology in our lives, and its potential ramifications.

Hipster Bashing, Ironic Living, and Seeing the World Through the Eyes of A Child

New York City exotic dancer Crystal DiCesare is suing Dial-A-Dancer—a company that sends strippers and porn stars to entertain at private functions—for violating the Fair Labor Standards Act.
DiCesare claims she works several 12-hour days each week, but gets no overtime. Plus, she alleges Dial-A-Dancer owner Roger Otway skims money from her nightly tips, which on some nights add up to about $500. Under federal law, employees do not have to share tips with their employer, except under the terms of a bona fide tip-pooling arrangement.
Otway claims the company's dancers are independent contractors. DiCesare counters that they're employees, since Otway tells them what to wear and whether they are allowed to eat before performing.
When asked why she filed the lawsuit, DiCesare's attorney told the New York Daily News that his client "didn't like getting screwed."

By Sharon Silke Carty, USA TODAY
DETROIT This Christmas and New Year, the auto industry is worried about the orphans.
There are about 3 million of them: Customers who either lost their dealer because of closings in 2009 or whose current car brand is going out of business. And it's pitting carmakers and car dealers against one another as they fight for who'll win that business.
Urban Science, a consultant firm in Detroit, says 1,467 dealers closed in 2009. The bulk were General Motors or Chrysler dealerships. They were forced out of business when the carmakers filed for bankruptcy and could close weak dealers.
Auto sales are expected to rise slightly in 2010, up to around 11 million, compared with fewer than 10 million sold in 2009. But dealers are still expected to close at a faster rate than usual, because GM isn't done closing outlets.
GM is killing the Pontiac, Saab and Saturn brands. Its Hummer brand will likely be sold to a Chinese company. That leaves Pontiac, Saab and Saturn customers needing a new place to service their cars.
If GM can't hang on to these customers, it risks losing sales to other brands.
"GM desperately needs those sales and that market share," says Michelle Krebs, senior analyst and editor at consumer website Edmunds.com's AutoObserver publication.
Wooing orphan customers with offers
In an effort to prevent this, GM has sent mail to millions of customers, offering free oil changes and other bonuses to keep people shopping at GM dealers. They've also offered rebates up to $2,000 to customers willing to buy another GM brand.
"The challenge for us is to grab those customers by the hand and make sure they know where to go," said Susan Docherty, GM's vice president of U.S. sales, in a recent conference call.
The automaker has been sharing customer lists from closing stores with remaining dealers and urging them to reach out to customers.
But dealers will need to use that information correctly, says Katherine Kress, vice president of customer marketing at Urban Science. Bombarding customers with new car offers just months after they bought a car will be a waste of postage, because those buyers likely won't be back in the market for a couple of years.
"The more information the automaker can provide the dealer, the better the brand will be at keeping those customers," Kress says.
Other dealers — those who no longer sell GM brands but might have other competitive brands still operating — are desperate for those customers, too. The bulk of dealer profits comes from service work, not new car sales, so it's crucial for dealers to keep those customers coming back.
Just another hurdle for dealers
Providing good service also is key to making the next new car sale, Krebs says. "It's not very glamorous, but it's the bread and butter of a car dealership," she says.
The battle for service business and new customers is another hurdle dealers will have to jump in 2010 to stay in business, but many dealers are prepared for that, says Randy Berlin, global practice director for Urban Science.
"Dealers are resilient business people. ... They've got revenue channels besides new vehicle sales that allow them to maintain their businesses," he says. "They've made it through the worst of it, but they need to maintain their owner base and service business."

|Artwork created by our kick-ass members and other amazing artists! So far we have over 300 works and we add more each day!
|More cool art that's more abstract content or style wise than what we see in the normal gallery. Check it out!
Before I explain the group, let me introduce myself briefly.
I am ArtByRiana, a sophomore in college studying illustration. My boyfriend and Co-Founder, Tirann0 introduced me to South Park last year, and it became my new favorite animated tv show. The humor is just brilliant and I admire the risks it takes.
When I first looked on deviantART for some South Park fanart, the... vast amount of which was in the anime style completely threw me off. Digging around, I did find art that was non-anime influenced. They were really awesome! It just kinda sucks that one has to wade through all of the "bishi" renditions of the characters to find anything but.
Before I go on, I personally have nothing against anime (it's impossible to hate on a cartooning medium, and I personally love Perfect Blue, Death Note, Chobits, anything by Osamu Tezuka blah blah blah). I'll also admit that a LOT of the SP anime art and cosplays are VERY well done and, regardless of content, just beautiful.
The slash, however, kinda disturbs and confuses us, so obviously we don't allow that. That stuff makes us want to gorge our eyeballs out because the last thing we want to think about while watching our favorite TV show is seeing our favorite characters making out with each other or some shit like that. If you like that stuff, please keep it to yourself and others that also enjoy it. Thank you!
This group was made so that the non-anime South Park fanart could be celebrated. It needs some loving.
We assume that everyone who wishes to be a member is also sick and tired of this sugoi sugoi desu neeeee stuff that we see all the time, too, and just wants to create artwork more faithful to the TV show's original content.
REMEMBER, even though we do not allow any anime South Park fanart in our gallery, WE ARE NOT A HATE GROUP, AND WE WILL NOT TOLERATE ANY FLAMING TOWARDS SPECIFIC ARTISTS OR OTHER GROUPS. YOU WILL BE KICKED FROM THE GROUP IF YOU ARE CAUGHT. Instead, use the energy to comment on the wonderful fanart we have in our gallery.
Have fun and enjoy the art!!

Behold dramatic mountains and an alluring cultural mosaic
See the Trips ►
There's hardly a traveler who doesn't want to go to Nepal to see the world's highest and most impressive mountains, who doesn't want to meet its famously big-hearted people, and who isn't lured by the country's vibrant, madly chromatic culture.
Nepal is a wondrous crossroads of religions, cultures, and geography. Hinduism holds sway throughout the country's south while Buddhism flows across the northern border from the Tibetan Plateau. Both great faiths uniquely fuse with ancient animist beliefs and shaman rituals. Nepal is home to dozens of linguistic groups, tribes and castes, forming a rich and varied cultural mosaic.

Hobos, hookers, and robots; what's not to like?
I positively loved this show! Its a spot on parody of modern film based musicals that avoids taking itself too seriously but still seriously enough to be well performed, directed, and highly entertaining. The songs are ridiculously catchy and absolutely hilarious, in terms of both timing and lyric. The jokes are clever and well written, not to mention perfectly delivered by a high energy and very gifted cast. Any joke that at first may seem to be an inconsequential stand-alone pun returns with a witty vengeance that keeps the audience in stitches. From Soviet robots, to post-feminism, to poking fun at historical figures, "Zipperface!!?!: the Hobo Musical" makes sure that everyone will find a joke they couldnt keep from laughing at if you paid them. I wish the shows hadnt sold out so quickly; Id have liked to go see it again!

Baghdad (AFP) May 02, 2013
April was Iraq's deadliest month in nearly five years, the United Nations said on Thursday, with more than 700 people killed in violence that has raised fears of a return to sectarian conflict.
"The month of April was the deadliest since June 2008. A total of 712 people were killed and another 1,633 were wounded in acts of terrorism and acts of violence," a statement from the UN mission in Iraq said.
"Baghdad was the worst-affected governorate, with a total of 697 civilian casualties (211 killed, 486 injured), followed by Diyala, Salaheddin, Kirkuk, Nineveh and Anbar," the statement said.
A wave of violence began on April 23 when security forces moved on Sunni anti-government protesters near the town of Hawijah in north Iraq, sparking clashes in which 53 people were killed.
Dozens more died in subsequent unrest, including in revenge attacks targeting security forces in Kirkuk, Nineveh, Diyala, and Anbar provinces, raising fears of a return to the all-out sectarian conflict that took the lives of tens of thousands of people from 2006 to 2008.
The late-April violence was the deadliest so far linked to protests that broke out in Sunni areas of Shiite-majority Iraq more than four months ago.
The Sunni protesters have called for the resignation of Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki, a Shiite, and criticised authorities for allegedly targeting their community with wrongful detentions and accusations of involvement in terrorism.
"Conditions have definitely worsened in the country," said John Drake, an Iraq specialist with risk consulting firm AKE Group.
"If the government fails to contain the unrest and address some of the grievances of the protesters, the momentum could certainly build and lead to a re-emergence of widespread violence," he said.
June 2008, when the UN said Iraq last saw violence at the current level, was one month before the departure of the last of five brigades sent to Iraq as part of a "surge" of troops.
The additional troops, combined with Sunni tribes who turned against Al-Qaeda and joined forces with the United States, helped to bring violence under a semblance of control, but political reconciliation, the strategic objective of the surge, has yet to be realised.
Powerful Shiite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr's order in August 2008 for his Mahdi Army militia to suspend its activities indefinitely also helped to reduce unrest.
But while violence has fallen from its peak at the height of Iraq's sectarian conflict in 2006 and 2007, attacks on both civilians and security forces remain common.
