Kim Kardashian wants six-pack abs
Kim Kardashian posted the above pic on her blog from an upcoming Muscle and Fitness photo shoot. She's claims she's on her way to six-pack abs which means scientists must have developed a version of Photoshop that works on real life. Otherwise, you got me:
Alright guys, I have been going sooo hard in the gym, and I really feel it's paying off! My tummy is soo toned. Why is it that the top part gets ripped first and the lower part is sooo hard to tone up!? I am determined to have a six pack by summer! In a feminine way of course.
While I admire Kim's dedication to physical fitness, maybe she should invest a little time and effort in CHANGING A FUCKING LIGHT BULB. I mean, Jesus, it's like this picture was taken in the Batcave. Is she trying to hide someth- Oh, I get it.

U.S. Air Carrier On-Time Performance
U.S. Air Carrier On-Time Performance
Almost 82 percent of domestic air carrier scheduled flights arrived on time in 2003, compared with 79 percent in 1995. Late flight arrivals totaled 16 percent in 2003, down from 20 percent in 1995 (figure 3-3). Overall, between 1995 and 2003, late, canceled, and diverted flights peaked at 1.6 million in 2000 and declined to their lowest number (941,448) in 2002 before rising to 1.2 million in 2003 [1].
The total number of scheduled nonstop domestic passenger flights at the nation's airports rose 12 percent between 1995 and 2001 from 5.3 million to 6.0 million flights. After the shutdown of flight operations on September 11, 2001, the number of scheduled flights decreased 12 percent between 2001 and 2002 to 5.3 million flights. They then rose 23 percent to 6.5 million flights in 2003.
Air carriers with at least 1 percent of total domestic scheduled service passenger revenues have been required to report ontime performance data to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) since 1987. As of mid-2003, the airlines began reporting data on the cause of delays, as well.1 A flight has an "on-time departure" if the aircraft leaves the airport gate less than 15 minutes after its scheduled departure time, regardless of the time the aircraft actually lifts off from the runway. An arriving flight is counted as ontime if it arrives less than 15 minutes after its scheduled gate arrival time.
On average, 37 percent of delays occur because of circumstances within an airline's control, such as maintenance or crew problems, while 40 percent are caused by a previous flight arriving late (figure 3-4). According to these monthly data, security delays have had the least impact on airline schedules, and extreme weather is the cause of an average of 7 percent of delays. However, the number of weather-related delays was highest in August 2003 (5,887) and January 2004 (7,907) and lowest in October 2003 (1,667). Monthly delays ranged from 8 percent to 15 percent of all scheduled flights between July 2003 and January 2004.

Accused smuggler extradited
Published 5:50 pm, Monday, February 4, 2013
A fugitive from Eagle Pass recently extradited from Mexico on munitions smuggling charges made his first court appearance Monday in San Antonio.
An indictment in Del Rio charges Erik Alan Garza, 25, with 10 counts of aiding and abetting the smuggling of goods from the United States. Prosecutors allege that from 2010 to 2012, Garza tried to smuggle into Mexico night vision goggles, 400 tactical sights for AR-15 rifles, 5,000 high-capacity rifle magazines and 6,000 rounds of ammunition.
He was extradited from Mexico Friday. Mexican authorities in Piedras Negras, across the border from Eagle Pass, arrested Garza, a U.S. citizen, in August, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office in San Antonio.
News Channel
According to the plea agreements of Damien Hesles and Richard Hesles Jr., the proprietors of an Eagle Pass gun store, Garza would order gun sights on behalf of the Zetas drug cartel. The Hesles brothers, both of whom admitted to aiding and abetting smuggling, accepted money from Garza and his codefendant Rolando Tamayo, 32, also of Eagle Pass, according to the plea agreements.
Garza, who faces up to 10 years in prison, will be transferred to Del Rio, where the charges originated.

Now the question had already been answered by me in an earlier post by saying ' .... get registered on certview ...'.
Unfortunately apparently ignored or too impatient to go through login process to certview. Complete status should be available there, including shipment date. As of original post it is possible certifcation database may not rules may mean Original Poster had not met certification requirements ... certview really helps establish this problem. As of later posts there was an indication soft copy received ... so assuming this was the certification in repsonse to an SR this is an indicator certification had been achieved (unfortunately some, and i dont this it happened here, will take a Pearson VUE exam score sheet as evidence of a certification. It isn't).
The reason I replied to thread in first place is that original poster indicated he had already raised SR's and had not recieved a response. This unfortately seems to be a relatively common situation; and there are number of ways with dealing with it. The links on my earlier post gave a wealth of detail, though there are a couple of other techniques as well.
If I interpret the reply to his original question correctly, and I may not, I read the implication of the advice was to contact Oracle University offices on the link given. My best understanding is this would be incorrect advice.
I have periods thoughout the day when I am less busy ... and periods when I am more pressed.

You should seen a line like:
BIGDELBOY 1st shipment 31-DEC-99 Oracle Power Objects Certified Associate - Fra-tton Park Frogmore Road, Ports-mouth P-O-4 8RA
The key item here is the shipment date ..... (31-DEC-99) It takes 6/8 weeks from that to get your shipment. In fact Oracle will not respond if your raise SR's before that date.
Now my understanding is that if Oracle has determined you need a reship:
- They will send you an electronic copy immediately
- THe will order you a reshipment:
-- For some reshipments I assume that will appear in certview .... but it may take up to about a week to appear in certview. And up to 6/8 weeks to appear in your inbox.
--For certain expedited ships they may no appear in certview.
*Now: The the certview success kit (incl certificate) cannot be tracked via a D-H-L track-er or InsihMurrayPostlTracker whatever. All you get is a shipment date (which I think personally is better thought of as the date the order way place with the success kit manufacture, not the date of post-ing.
- (1) I suggest you wait a week after your electronic copy to see if any shipment appears in certview
- (2) Although you received an electronc copy of your certificate for Oracle I remain unsure if all comminucations to you re getting though. I suspect the obfistication used to protect individual certification helpdesk staff may provoke some spa-m filters more than other communications.
It may be after a week you feel you need to raise another SR.
One key way on how to raise SR's effectively is suggested by Brandy here: {message:id=10266530} wher a candidate felt Oracle were not replying to him:
My suggestion to you would be to submit a new SR, and reference one of your previous SRs, provide confirmation that your mailing address and other information are correct at Pearson VUE and in CertView, ask for your certificate to be reshipped .... and let them know that you have not received any of their email communications. I would also suggest that you provide an alternate email address. Regards, Brandye Barrington Certification Forum Moderator
See also:
It is worth noting certview can also publish you credentials to third parties: It works something like:-
You supply to certview 3rd party's email address and what you want published there:
Third party gets email giving URL and credentials to viewthe certifications the you have permitted to be viewd.
This should be suffient proof to a third party in lieu of a certificate.
It is worth publishing the credential to yourslf once so you get practce as to how this works.

I just need to know the way to get the reference no. to track my shipment..Brandye, the forum moderator, has indicated on previous threads that the company used to ship the certificates does not provide Oracle with tracking numbers.
13. Re: Not recieved my shipment944540 Aug 13, 2012 2:03 PM (in response to Matthew Morris)Sir,
Tilll date, I did not recieve my success kit..Its has been shiped twice as per the details updated in certview.
If company used to ship the certificates does not provide Oracle with tracking numbers, how could I track my shipment physically.
Does It mean I have no alternate,except to wait? I already raised two SRs for this and still helpless.
Its already 4 months passed and I am still waiting for my certicate in hard copy.
It would be very helpful if you can guide me through.
14. Re: Not recieved my shipmentBrandye Barrington-Oracle Aug 13, 2012 5:56 PM (in response to 944540)Vikash,
Can you please provide SR#s so that I can look into this? Please do not provide personal info like Testing ID, etc. SR#s are sufficient.

Lethal Skeletal Dysplasia
Question :
Manish Tiwari, Rhishikesh Thakre , Anilkumar Khamkar.
Department of Pediatrics, S.R.T.R. Medical College, Ambejogai, Department of Neonatology, M.G.M. Medical College, Aurangabad.
Address for Correspondence: Dr Manish Tiwari, Department of Pediatrics, S.R.T.R. Medical College, Ambejogai, Maharashtra, India. Email: email@example.com
A third gravid mother with third degree consanguinity delivered vaginally a full term male baby of 2.2 kg. The baby required bag and mask resuscitation with apgar score of 3, 5 and 7 at birth, 1 and 5 minutes respectively. Baby was shifted to nursery. The mother informed that the first baby was a home delivery, male sex, at term and died within one hour of birth with body features similar to the present baby. The second issue was a female, preterm delivery at 6 months of gestation and birth weight of 800 grams. Baby died around 18 hours of age. In this pregnancy, ultrasonography was done twice, first in second trimester which was normal and second time at 36 weeks which revealed polyhydramnios and short femur length. There was no history of bony abnormalities in the family. On admission to nursery, the baby had severe respiratory distress with short limb dwarfism and generalized subcutaneous edema. Anthropometric measurements were weight 2.2 kg { Less than 10th centile}, length 38.4 cm{ Less than 5th centile}, head circumference 35.4cm { 90th centile} and upper: lower segment ratio 2.01:1. On physical examination the baby had macrocephaly, large anterior fontanelle, flat occiput, hypertelorism, depressed nasal bridge, anteverted nostrils, long philtrum, deformed low set ears, atretic ear canal, short neck, short thorax, hypertrichosis, protuberant abdomen with huge hydrocele, short limbs {mesomelic} and bilateral club foot. On systemic examination there was respiratory distress with Downes score of 6, no evidence of murmur, abdomen distended due to ascites with no obvious neurodeficit. Radiological survey showed generalised sclerosis of bones. The skull parietal bones were prominent with abnormally based occipital synchondrosis. Long bones appeared short with wide diaphyses and smooth and rounded metaphyses. Shortening was predominantly mesomelic i.e. middle segment. Thorax was short and ribs were normal. Vertebrae were flat and there was absent ossification of pubic rami. Present baby succumbed to respiratory failure at 36 hours of age. Post-mortem bone biopsy done with consent of parents from three different sites was normal. Chromosomal analysis revealed normal karyotype. DNA analysis could not be done.
What is the diagnosis_?
Answer :
Lethal Skeletal Dysplasia -Type Al Gazali. {1,2} The clinical phenotype of the facial features with a flat face and hypertelorism, as well as lowest ears are similar to those seen in achondrogenesis, but the extremities in achondrogenesis cases are much shorter. The radiological picture is completely different from the achondrogenesis group of phenotypes, but shares some common features with mild hypochondrogenesis. However, osteosclerosis, absence of metaphyseal irregularities, adequate ossification of vertebral bodies are not signs found in hypochondrogenesis. Also the bone biopsy, which was normal in our case, is not a feature of achondrogenesis and hypochondrogenesis. In both these condition there are severe changes in growth plate. {1,2} Another differential diagnosis could be dysplastic cortical hyperostosis described by Kozlowski and Tsuruta {3} but microcephaly and the normal size of the hands and feet as well as normal ossification of the pubic bones differentiates this entity.

Post subject: DT's Mock.1
Alright, so I've been kicking around the idea of putting a mock together based off of what I think KC should do, and what I am hoping is realistic. Now I am aware for the record that those may not be the same thing.
I'll tack on a couple of FA moves I'd like us to make, but in reality I think we'll likely wait until the draft at this point, then see where our team needs stack up. Then make a move or two after June 1 cuts.
But, anyway here goes.
Sign Thomas DeCoud - Still young, lots of upside coming off a bad year. I could see him as a one year veteran guy who could start or push Commings. This is me being nervous about the unproven Commings, and nervous about injury stuff. Plus, arguably one of our biggest needs. Creates flexibility in the draft.
I tweeted Daryn Colledge and asked him what it would take for him to come play with his boy the Shermanator in KC. He tweeted back, a phone call. I'll add him too as a veteran guard who can play both positions and C in a pinch.
I think those 2 FA moves really really free up our draft possibilities. After completing my draft, through a short analysis on players I know I've ignored the DL until late which seems unlikely in the real world, though I fully expect us to add a veteran or two after June 1. I really wanted to but the man/bear Shade Tree McCullers to us in the 4th, but I was trying to not be a total homer for KC.
Round 1 pick 23 Traded to Cleveland in exchange for pick 26 and pick 71. Cleveland knows that SD (where Rivers isn't getting any younger) and Cincy (Where the Red Rocket has yet to be extended) are sitting behind us and get nervous about being able to snag the QB they passed at 4. KC picks up an additional pick to slide back just a few spots.
Round 1 pick 26 - Odell Beckham Jr. I'm seeing a lot of press about the Jets and Eagles being interested in the combination of Cooks and Lee is some order. By a stroke of luck ODB falls to us.
I've been preaching about ODB for a while. Great speed, long arms, big hands, strong and with a good vertical. It can't be overlooked how well this guy catches the ball. Something KC sorely needs. Leads to Donnie Avery being expendable after June 1 if we're hurting for cap room.
Round 2...snooze fest. At least Alex has been playing well. With 2 3rd round picks we could consider moving up, but I doubt it. Unless someone would really drop.
Round 3 pick 71 - Joel Bitonio G/T from Nevada. A versatile lineman to challenge basically any position, but I see him taking the RG spot.
Round 3 pick 87 - Pierre Desir - Another big bodied (6'1") CB that Dorsey likes. Adds depth to a position where we have strength, but were slammed hard in the late season. Security in case Cooper doesn't keep moving forward, and Commings stays at FS.
Round 4 pick - 124 - Dri Archer WR/RB - Reid and Dorsey see in Archer what Pioli saw in McCluster, only they don't blow a 2nd round pick on him, and Archer is faster.
Round 5 pick -163- David Fales - San Jose State - Reid likes to flip QBs. Taking Fales makes sense in that sense, and allows the removal of Daniels' ridiculous contract. They've seen enough of Bray to think he can play, but adding Fales to learn from Reid could be huge down the road.
Round 6 pick - 193 - DE/OLB Shaquil Barrett should fight for PT with Zombo, provide some pass rush from the outside and help special teams. What more can you ask from a 6th round pick?
Round 6 pick - 200 - Adrian Hubbard OLB -Bama. Stock drop off after an outstanding sophmore year leads to his stock falling. Solid all around player with outstanding size. This is a guy who could come booming back onto the seen with good coaching, something it seems our LBs have.
Well there you have it gents. Some FAs I think we could take a look at after the draft (maybe before include Sidney Rice (too much talent to not look), Jason Avant (could run the offense in his sleep, could see this move if we decide Hemingway hasn't made big enough strides or Jenkins just isn't good enough). Anthony Spencer (DE), Brett Keisel (Bring in his beard to compete with McGrath's, Keisel can compete for DE), Johnny Jolly (DT/DE) and Aubrayo Franklin (DT).
Now, let's have it.

You can't really compare compensation in that trade last year to this year. Value of compensation changes with every draft pick regardless of the point value chart.
Thanks to LOTO for the sig

Really like the possibility of Fales in late rounds if he lasts. Fits really well with Andy Reid.

RVM, yeah I thought him or Logan Thomas could be someone Reid would see as a potential starter down the road or upgrading a pick down the road. It's hard to think about taking a QB when we have needs, but at that point I think we will be going BPA (while earlier rounds would be guided by need/BPA), and for that I wouldn't be shocked if Andy saw QB as a BPA and tried to hit on one.

Like your draft, although I would take Herron over Archer. Very good speed, better hands and better separation.
BTW, check Avant off your FA list. Just signed w/the Panthers.

Flexx, yeah, sucks about Avant, but he was never going to be a difference maker for us. That's why I think the draft is our answer for a WR.
I'm not really a fan of Herron, but I'll look at him some more. It's pretty hard not to like Dri when you watch the highlights.

Yesterday I installed FeedDemon on my Windows 7 computer and when I tried to Synchronize Feed Daemon I got error message saying:
FeedDemon was unable to make a secure connection to your Google account. If you have an active internet connection, verify that your firewall permits FeedDemon to connect.
On analyzing it closely I realized that this is because of Windows 7 Firewall preventing the FeedDemon to access Internet connection.
In this article I will share with you how you can add any program or application as an exception to Windows 7 Firewall to allow the application to use Internet Connection.
You need to add certain programs to Windows 7 Firewall exception list if that program is not working correctly because of Internet connection access problem. To know what programs / applications are using internet connection at present, you can read our tutorial – How To Check Which Application Is Using Internet Connection
To add any program to exception list you need to follow the below steps:
1. Go to Start > Control Panel > Windows Firewall
2. On Windows Firewall page, click on the options "Allow a program or feature through Windows Firewall ". This will open Allowed Programs Window
3. Click on the "Change settings" button on the Allowed Programs Windows
4. When you press Change settings button, the button on the bottom of the screen which says "Allow another program" will become enabled. Click this button.
5. Browser through the list of programs to locate the program that you want to add in the exception list. In example below, I have added FeedDemon in the window below. Click Add button and press OK on the Allowed Programs Window.
Note: If the program you want to add is not in this list, click the browse button on below window and locate the program on the installed location and it will be added.
6. Now run the application you were facing problems with, In my case, I ran FeedDemon again and this time it worked perfectly fine.
Hope you find this tutorial simple and useful.

SINCE leading Branksome Railway on their maiden voyage in the FA Sunday Cup, boss Ian Colmer's life has been turned upside-down.
In the weeks between guiding Railway to third and fourth round victories earlier this season, Ian was diagnosed with double testicular cancer.
"The cup run has been excellent for the club but also for me because it has helped me forget," said Ian, speaking ahead of Railway's quarter-final against The Plough Wellington at Wimborne's Cuthbury on Sunday.
"Once it had been confirmed, I told all the players after a game and broke down in the clubhouse. I apologised to them and they have all been incredible. I love them to bits."
Ian, a father to four teenage daughters, added: "I was in the bath one day and felt an abnormality in my left testicle. I was ignorant and just shrugged it off. I didn't really pay much attention to it and thought it would go. But it was still there a week or so later and I did some research on the Internet. It was frightening.
"I knew it wasn't the right thing to do but I kept it to myself for about three weeks before eventually telling my wife.
"I saw a specialist in Weymouth and, even from a touch examination, he was under no illusion that my left testicle was riddled with cancer. He didn't mess around and I was immediately sent for a scan before having surgery three days later. I was shocked but impressed at the same time.
"They then found tumours on my right testicle, which was a massive double whammy. I felt like I had been smacked in the face twice and the alarm bells were ringing in my head. I went from thinking I had an ulcer to being told I had double testicular cancer. It was a massive shock to me and my wife, we were both speechless."
Ian, who lives with wife Sam in Milton Abbas, was sent for a full body scan to ascertain whether the cancer had spread: "They wanted me to have it done immediately but I wanted to go home and take stock of what I had just been told. It was my decision to wait three days and they were the worst three days of my life.
"Fortunately, they were 99 per cent certain it hadn't spread. That was a huge relief and I almost forgot I had testicular cancer for 24 hours because the fear it could have spread was horrible."
Tanker driver Ian, who has been signed off work, is currently awaiting the results of a biopsy on his right testicle before a decision is made on the next course of treatment. His options are likely to be chemotherapy or partial or full removal.
"I am very fortunate to have the family I have," said Ian. "My wife, my children and everybody at Branksome Railway have galvanised me. This has brought the family together and put a different perspective on life for me. I just want to thank everybody.
"People ignore stuff and think things won't happen to them. I certainly did. I would urge everybody to just take two minutes to check. Don't be afraid to find something and don't be afraid to go to the doctor. It is neither embarrassing nor wrong.
"If you find anything then have the courage to go to the doctor and ask the questions. Nobody made me feel uncomfortable and my treatment has been exceptional. I was blessed that it hadn't spread and that there is light at the end of the tunnel. I am thankful it was caught, although it should have been a lot earlier but that was down to me."
Ian will lead Branksome Railway when they bid to book a place in the semi-final of the FA Sunday Cup by seeing off The Plough at Wimborne on Sunday (2pm kick-off). Cost of entry is £2 to adults, while under-16s are free.

CHILDREN across Worcestershire and Herefordshire got a snow day as around 230 schools were closed across the two counties today.
But as parents tried to find out if their child's school was closed this mornign on Worcestershire County Council's website it crashed.
The whole site was down intermittently from 6.45am for just over an hour.
Coun David Thain, cabinet member for transformation and change, said: "Whilst we opened customer contact centres earlier this morning and were tweeting from first thing, our website unfortunately could not cope with the volume of visitors.
"We would like to apologise for the intermittent service of our website which came at the worst possible time. We would particularly like to apologise to parents, businesses and residents who rely on important information such as finding out if their school is open.
"We would urge people to follow our Twitter account @worcscc."
Meanwhile teacher's were forced to decide whether to shut their doors because of the weather.
Christopher Whitehead Language College in Worcester closed at 2.15pm but said they were glad to have opened with 75 per cent of pupils making the journey.
Headteacher Neil Morris thanked all parents, students and staff for making the journey in the wintry weather and said they were closing a bit early to ensure the safety of those using the buses. He added: "We have had 750 of the 1,000 pupils attend today and have had lovely comments from parents who have been able to go to work because we opened.
"We are preparing these young people for the world of work."
Pershore High School headteacher Clive Corbett apologised for opening the school this morning and causing inconvenience to parents. He also denied the school had been opened to protect attendance figures.
"Apologies to any parents who were inconvenienced by our attempt to keep the school open and our ultimate failure to do so.
"Apologies also for any communication difficulties and shortcomings. I know it has been suggested by one person we did so in order to protect our attendance figures. I can confirm that is totally untrue since low attendance on a snowy day has the opposite effect.
"I would like to thank the bus companies and Pershore High School staff for getting students safely home. We will obviously do our best to open the school on Monday, January 21, but will communicate a decision as early as is possible."

For Michael McCain, it has been the summer of change.
Start with the biggest change of all: He is without his best friend and confidant – his father, Wallace, who died in May. At the funeral service, held in Toronto and simultaneously broadcast in two churches in New Brunswick, Mr. McCain told the assembled mourners that he called his dad nearly every day at 7:30 a.m., "just to hear his voice, just to ask him how he was doing." So there is a void now in his life and in his morning routine, and also one in the boardroom at Maple Leaf Foods Inc., where the father, as chairman, served as adviser and boss to the son.
His financial circumstances are changing, too. After Wallace's death, family assets are being shuffled. When that's done, Michael McCain will have a much-reduced stake in McCain Foods, the private family business out of Florenceville, N.B., that sells frozen pizzas and French fries. Instead, he will have most of his personal wealth tied up in Maple Leaf, a public company where mistakes – including his own – are exposed to broad scrutiny.
All of which is to say there's probably more pressure on him now than ever. At 52, Mr. McCain has many things: a personal fortune worth hundreds of millions of dollars, a permanent spot in the Canadian establishment and a big job as the head of one of country's largest food companies. What he doesn't have is time to waste. There's something to prove here.
The shareholders are banging at the gates and they want to see a return on their investment – something Maple Leaf hasn't been able to provide in quite a long time. The company's stock price is lower than it was a decade ago (when dividends are included, it has produced the tiniest of returns). Last year, the Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan grew tired of waiting and divested its entire 35-per-cent stake, bringing a somewhat bitter end to its long partnership with the McCains. Nearly one-third of those shares wound up in the hands of West Face Capital, an aggressive Toronto hedge fund known to be big on results and short on excuses. A brief skirmish ensued, resulting in Greg Boland, West Face's founder and chief executive officer, joining Maple Leaf as a director to change the climate in the boardroom.
What hasn't changed for Mr. McCain lately is his unwavering belief in his blueprint – a massive overhaul of the business that involves spending more than $1-billion to replace some of Maple Leaf's medieval factories – and his confidence that by following it, he can make the next 10 years more rewarding the past 10 were.
"Our choice, really, is to fix the business or get out of it. Because you're not going to run a broken business." Realizing his choice of words, he tries to correct: "Or a broken supply chain, I should say. Not a broken business."
Inside a Maple Leaf boardroom, we sit down to a sampling of the company's products: chicken breast on salad with raspberry vinaigrette; a turkey sandwich with vegetables on Dempster's rye; Olivieri-brand cannelloni; garlic bread; Schneider's bacon and wieners. (All of it is prepared by John Placko, a chef who bears the title "director of culinary excellence.") Mr. McCain, who is probably the only multimillionaire in Canada who would describe a hot dog as "absolutely spectacular," then begins an examination of the less-than-spectacular shape of Maple Leaf itself.
For instance: There's a bakery close to downtown Toronto. "That plant was built in 1903. The oven was commissioned four years before I was born, in 1954. The floors are wood, okay? They've got wooden floors. I mean, this is an asset that has seen its day." He has plenty more like that. After taking control of Maple Leaf with the financial backing of Teachers in the mid-1990s, he and his father made 30 acquisitions. Then they used the favourite crutch of Canadian manufacturers – a weak dollar – to compete with U.S. rivals, papering over the inefficiencies on the factory floor.
When the loonie rose from 62 cents (U.S.) to parity, that game was up. It is the story of Canadian manufacturing, writ small: Too many plants, with too many workers, using technology that is too old, and producing too little, at a cost that is too high. (The proof is in the profit margins, which are thinner than shaved meat. On nearly $5-billion(Canadian) in sales, Maple Leaf earned a grand total of $26-million last year.) Most executives don't talk down their own companies in this way. But Mr. McCain has something to sell here (his plan), and he isn't shy about his considerable talent as a communicator to sell it.
That skill was put to the test in a big way three years ago, when deadly bacteria found its way into Maple Leaf meat, killing more than 20 people. Had the crisis been handled badly, it might well have killed the company itself. Instead, Mr. McCain was lauded for his response to it: Almost immediately, he went on television, looked straight into the camera, and apologized. For PR professionals, the episode has become a case study in crisis management. It has even been the subject of an academic paper by two professors, who called it an example of "how communication can generate widespread support even after an error with tragic consequences has occurred."Report Typo/Error

I had a Nook Classic for a while, and it was good for shelves and all, but I went to the STR for the better screen and longer battery life.
Got those things, but everything else was not so great.. If you have a big library adding books to the shelves you create is a laborious process, but you already know that from looking at your mom's reader. In the end I ended up giving my STR to my own mother. I made sure it was good and organized but that took more work to do than I ever want to again on a library.
If you want good organization I'd say go with the Sony's PRS-T2. You can find one for about a hundred dollars in Best Buy sometimes. With Calibre you take your books, making sure they are still in EPUB format, lump them in the series columns with names like-Brooks, Terry (Sword of Shannara Series)-and sideload the books into the Reader. It will become a collection you can access immediately without having manually create it on the Reader. Best part is if you do multiple shelves the Reader will even slot them in alphabetically.
As for stripping DRM there is a place on the internet suggests ways to do it. Hint-old show starring a furry brown alien. Think of him as an apprentice of sorts.
Still I really do recommend the T2. No rooting necessary. I have 4k books in my library now, and with Calibre I was able to load all of it into the Reader divided up into about 450 collections. Even better is that I bought my wife the same reader, purchased a memory card for it, cloned my memory card onto the new one, and loaded it into her Reader. Instant Library Duplication with no extra work.
The Nook STR is a great reader, but the ability to manage collections or shelves from a computer was what really sold it for me on the Sony. Your mother's frustration about the Nook's shelving system is not unique. With no 'Add to Shelf' feature paging through your entire library to add one book becomes a nightmare.

Unfortunately, the US housing crisis continues. Everyday people are being forced out of their homes due to financial difficulty and many of them are faced with the unthinkable — the reality that they must give up their beloved pets. In the worst situations, people are abandoning pets along with their homes. Some animals have been left to survive on their own for days and even weeks. There is an organization based here in Arizona that is doing something about this crisis. Lost Our Home Pet Foundation is a non-profit organization started by a group of animal-loving real estate professionals who rescue pets that are left behind due to foreclosures or other financial hardships.
Founded last summer, Lost Our Home has created several programs to help pet owners facing foreclosure. Lost Our Home offers financial aid to help pet owners keep their pets, they also have a pet food bank and a foster program to temporarily house pets, as well as an adoption program for owners who must permanently give up their pets. They even have a rescue aid program for foreclosure-related pet emergencies.
Please visit the Lost Our Home website for more information about this organization and consider making a donation to support the important work they are doing. Even if you don't live in Arizona, I believe that Lost Our Home can serve as a model for programs in other cities looking to do something similar.

This review is from: NVIDIA® Quadro® K600 VCQK600-PB 1GB GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 Low Profile Workstation Video Card
Pros: For various reasons, I'm working on an old Windows XP system, but I want to be able use larger monitors. I quickly found that this card works perfectly driving my Samsung 23 inch 2048x1152 through a DVI-D Dual cable. It's sharp, fast and quiet. Plays videos full screen. I'm pleased. Eventually, I want to go to 3840x2160, but that will have to wait for now. Instead, I added a second 1280x1024 monitor. Using the supplied adapters it goes: DVI output through DisplayPort, VGA output through DVI port. Works beautifully.
Cons: The box says it requires Intel Core i5, i7 or Xeon. AMD Phenom or Opteron. Or later. This may be for 64-bit. I'm running an older processor, an Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 and 32-bit XP SP3 and had no trouble installing the 32-bit drivers from the CD. This is great for me, but it does not indicate where the limits are.
Other Thoughts: Windows XP defaults are for low-res monitors, so, I had to raise the font sizes. In the advanced settings, you can change font size for menu bars, message boxes, etc. There are other font settings in programs like Notepad. Even after that, there is still plenty of thin, faint text, but not as bad. XP is old.READ FULL REVIEW

Have HVAC Questions? Ask an HVAC Expert for Answers
Amana models that start with a G are manufactured by Goodman. Goodman has redeemed itself after a miserable 10 years and since around 2002 has a pretty decent product with few issues and a very competitive warranty program. They tend to be a little louder and have a slightly shorter expected life than the higher end manufacturers but my impression overall is that they can be a good value if installed and maintained properly.
Amana models starting with A are not manufactured by Goodman and parts and literature can be hard to find as Amana is very proprietary as part of their commitment to their exclusive dealers. If you know and trust an Amana dealer true Amana units are very competitive and of high quality. There are a lot of complaints about Amana on the web but if you read into them a little it's clear that the issue is the closed door approach to support and not directly related to product quality.
I'm not sure of where Amana rates on the Consumer Reports list, I'd guess that they are in the top 8 or 9. That said, I'm not convinced that Consumer Reports is the best measure for HVAC equipment. There are too many variables in the industry that can affect equipment performance and reliability once it is installed.
Side note: - I have had complaints and problems with Rheem/Ruud units too numerous to mention. I hope you've had a good run with yours but, in residential applications it seems like we're trying to repair one every day.
Hello. My name is XXXXX XXXXX do my best to answer your question.Remember, you are not charged and I am not paid until you accept my answer.
Sorry I was away from computer when you requested me.I sell Rheem/Ruud , Goodman and Amana units.The Amana and Goodman are both manufactured by the same company.Amana wanted to sell out and concentrate on military products.Goodman had previously operated under the trade name of Janitrol.Upon acquiring the Amana trade name, they agreed that every product they manufacture would be up to previous standards of Amana.
I understand that purchasing a new central A/C system today can be mind boggling due to all the brands and choices.One thing to keep in mind is that nearly every manufacturer uses the same brand components.Such as compressors made by Copeland,,Tecumseh or Bristol.Fans made by GE,Emersron,Dayton and Fasco,Controls and valves by Honeywell, Parker,Robertshaw,and White Rodgers.
With that said, if you ask 100 people what AC system is best, XXXXX XXXXX get a different answer from almost every one.One guy pays 10,000 for a new Trane and it turns out to be a lemon and one guy pays 6,000 for a Goodman's and it seems to last forever without any problems.
Most every name brand now carries a 10 year parts warranty.The Amana compares to Rheem/Ruud as for as price goes.The Goodman standard line is less expensive.Goodman makes a little sturdier and nicer looking cabinet and add a few extras like sound blanket on compressors on the Amana line.AS for as components, nearly every part in the Amana unit is the same part as used in the Goodman unit.As for service and parts, any licensed HVAC contractor can get parts.
Trane , Carrier and Lennox are all dealer specific, meaning you have to use authorized dealers for parts for their units and initial cost is also usually higher for these units.
The most important issue is having the unit properly sized and properly installed.90 per cent of noise issues, performance issues and failure issues are related to an improper or poor installation.
With all of this said, the Amana is excellent unit and definitely one of the best units for the money.Goodman also offers a 10 year labor warranty on both the Goodman Standard and the Amana line of equipment (usually around 300 bucks or less).This is a wise investment as since nearly all manufactures are purchasing components from outside of the U.S.. you will most likely have something fail within 10 years ,regardless of brand.(One motor,compressor,control board,coil,expansion valve ,etc. can cost you that much in labor.)
Hope info is helpful. If so, please remember to hit the Accept button by my answer.

Pope Benedict XVI on Friday promoted his personal secretary to head of the papal household, giving Msgr. Georg Gaenswein even larger influence in organizing the aging pontiff's schedule and meetings.
Gaenswein has been Benedict's closest aide since his election in 2005, and also served as secretary when then-Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger headed the Vatican's doctrinal office.
The German-born Gaenswein was appointed prefect of the papal household, replacing American Archbishop James Harvey, who was recently made a cardinal.
Already an influential figure in the Vatican for his constant contact with the pope, Gaenswein, 56, will now have the final word in deciding who meets the pope and in arranging his public audiences. He will also be made an archbishop.
As the 85-year-old Benedict starts looking frailer, Gaenswein's role is bound to become increasingly significant.
His promotion mirrors that of Pope John Paul II's all-powerful personal secretary, Cardinal Stanislaw Dziwisz, who was made assistant prefect of the papal household in the last years of John Paul's papacy.
Gaenswein's appointment comes on the heels of the Vatileaks scandal, which shook the closely knit papal household when Benedict's personal assistant, Paolo Gabriele, stole the pontiff's private papers and leaked them to the press.
Gabriele, who is now serving an 18-month jail term in a Vatican cell, said during his trial that he had photocopied confidential documents in the office Gaenswein shares with the pope's second secretary, a Maltese priest.

Discussing the idea that, in an increasingly interdependent world, the key to humanity's trouble has been to take and not to give, to accept and not share, to grasp and not to distribute. Thus, it is the united action of the men and women of goodwill in every country which can lead to unity and right human relations.
Energy Follows Thought
We constantly hear about the energy crisis and the need for sustainable energy. Yet we forget that everything in the world is energy in manifestation. The word energy is derived from the Greek energos meaning active. Everything in the physical world, including all human activity, is a result of this vital, dynamic quality of life.

Sally's Recipe Of The Week: Teriyaki Shrimp and Soba Noodles
Here is what you will need to make this dish:
For the shrimp and soba noodles:
One package of Soba Noodles, a half a pound of shrimp (Thawed, peeled and deveined),2 stalks of celery sliced up, 1/2 to 1 can water chestnuts - drained, 2 to 3 carrots (depends on size) sliced,1 or 2 shallots sliced, 1 cup of shelled edamame, thawed if frozen. Or substitute what you have on hand, scallions, squash, bean sprouts, etc.
You will also need: 3 TBS Canola oil, divided, kosher salt and pepper to taste.
Ingredients for the sauce. Put the sauce together first. You will need 1/2 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce, 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 1 tsp sesame oil (oops,forgot to put that in the photo!), dash of fish sauce (optional)1/4 cup water, 1 TBS corn starch, 1/2 TBS grated fresh ginger and 1 TBS grated garlic.
Whisk togeher corn starch and water.
Add brown sugar and mix until dissolved.
Add remaining sauce ingredients and combine. Set the bowl of sauce aside.
Make the main dish.
Heat a large pot of salted water. Steam fogged up camera lens!
Heat 2 TBS oil in pan, add shrimp. Season shrimp with salt and pepper and saute for about 2 t 3 minutes, until mostly cooked. Can leave a little undercooked because you are going to be putting the shrimp back in to the sauce to reheat so it will cook some more. You don't want to overcook your shrimp.
Remove cooked shrimp from pan and put on platter, set aside.
In the same pan, add all vegetables except edaname.
Once vegetables are chrisp-tender add edaname.
Add sauce into pan.
While Sauce is thickening, put the noodles in the water and cook according to package directions.
Save some noodle water to add to your sauce if necessary.
Drain noodles.
Then, unlike regular pasta, you rinse it.
While noodles are draining from the rinsing, check your sauce and make sure it's nice and thick. If too thick, add a little noodle water.
Add shrimp back into dish and warm up.
Add the noodles and serve!

Over 3 million people have no choice but to collect dirty water from unsafe sources.
Over 3 million people in Ghana lack access to an improved water source.
22 million people don't have access to improved sanitation in Ghana.
Almost 1,000 children under five die a year due to diarrhoeal diseases caused by poor water and sanitation.
Ghana is rich in natural resources but many of its people are unemployed or live in poverty. Access to basic services is often inadequate, affecting people's health and preventing them from escaping poverty.
Ghana is one of the most densely populated countries in West Africa. Since the adoption of a new constitution in 1993, Ghana has become more politically stable, but a history of coups, food shortages and corruption means the country remains poor and indebted.
More than three million people don't have access to safe drinking water and over 85% of people don't have access to adequate sanitation. The three northern regions are particularly deprived, with one in ten children dying before their fifth birthday.
WaterAid has been present in Ghana since 1985, working with policy makers and eight local development partners.
Water, sanitation and hygiene education projects are carried out in six out of ten of the country's regions, helping to improve access to water and sanitation for some of Ghana's poorest people.
Community-led solutions and systems are put in place to help empower local communities and people so that they can help themselves to take the first steps out of poverty.
In Ghana last year we reached:

sequoia minces no words in its tough love message for managers.
Parker was angry at sequoia's Michael Moritz for having helped eject him from his previous company Plaxo.
Unsurprisingly, sequoia believes we are at the brink of a serious recession.
Perhaps nowhere else is it possible to hike so easily for hours through such forests of sequoia, pine, and fir.
Pilch shaded her eyes and looked at the sequoia's crown far above them.
I wonder if you, raised as you have been, can face life in sequoia resolutely with my son.
"He moved over into the sequoia right after we got back," Trigger said.
"Bryce Cardigan speaking, Mr. Poundstone," he greeted the chief executive of sequoia.
The General Grant Park has a sequoia that is thirty-five feet in diameter.
When attention is called to the method of sequoia stream-making, it will be apprehended at once.
large American coniferous tree, 1857, from Modern Latin tree genus name given 1847 by Austrian botanist Stephan Endlicher (1804-1849), originally to a different tree, the coast redwood, apparently in honor of Sequoya (a.k.a. George Guess, 1760-1843), Cherokee man who invented a system of writing for his people's language, whose name is from Cherokee (Iroquoian) Sikwayi, a word of unknown etymology.
Endlicher was a specialist in conifers, and he also was a philologist. But he never gave an etymology of this name and a search of his papers discovered no mention of Sequoya or the Cherokee writing system, and the connection is an assumption that some botanists have challenged, though no better candidate for a source has yet been found.
The giant sequoia was unseen by Europeans until 1833 and unknown to scientists until 1852. In May 1855, a pair of American botanists named it Taxodium giganteum, but that name was deemed inappropriate for several scientific reasons. Meanwhile, English botanist John Lindley, who had never been to California, in 1853 named it Wellingtonia in honor of the Duke of Wellington. "As high as Wellington towers above his contemporaries, as high towers this California tree above the forest surrounding it. Therefore, it shall bear for all time to come the name Wellingtonia gigantea." This sat poorly with the Americans, and much ink was spilled until a French botanist provided the solution by transferring Endlicher's name. In Britain still popularly called Wellingtonia.

TY - Generic T1 - Ventilation Efficiencies of Task Air Conditioning Systems With Desk-Mounted Air Supplies T2 - Proceedings of the Indoor Air '99, Edinburgh, Scotland Y1 - 1999 A1 - David Faulkner A1 - William J. Fisk A1 - Douglas P. Sullivan A1 - David P. Wyon AB -
In laboratory experiments, we investigated the ability of two task/ambient conditioning systems with air supplied from desk-mounted air outlets to efficiently ventilate the breathing zone of heated manikins seated at desks. In most experiments, the task conditioning systems provided 100% outside air while a conventional ventilation system provided additional space cooling but no outside air. Air change effectiveness (i.e., exhaust air age divided by age of air at the manikin's face) was measured. Tracer gases simulated the release of pollutants from nearby occupants and from the floor covering, and the associated pollutant removal efficiencies (i.e., exhaust air concentrations divided by concentrations at manikin's face) were also measured. High values of air change effectiveness (~ 1.3 to 1.9) and high values of pollutant removal efficiency (~ 1.2 to 1.6) were measured when these task conditioning systems supplied 100% outdoor air at a flow rate of 7 to 10 L s-1 per occupant.JF - Proceedings of the Indoor Air '99, Edinburgh, Scotland PB - Construction Research Communications.

The Who defined a generation and rocked the world. "My Generation," "Pinball Wizard," and "Baba O'Riley" are some of the most iconic tracks in rock history. The rock opera Tommy, the genre-defining Live at Leeds, and the R&B classic Quadrophenia are just some of The Who's albums. The band's original lineup had an amazing 15-year run, as they blazed their way around the globe, performing live and recording until the death of drummer Keith Moon in 1978. John Entwhistle died in 2002, but remaining founding members Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend continue to tour.
Treasures of The Who takes you on the journey with the band as they conquered the world: from small London clubs to Madison Square Garden, from seven-inch vinyl releases to multimillion-selling albums, all the way to recognition as global rock gods.
The text has been researched and written by Chris Welch, the legendary English journalist who was close to the band, and it is accompanied by images from many of the best contemporary photographers.

Seema Aarella
! ! ! ! .....Absence - Poem by Seema Aarella
Within the dreamscape
The secret creation and
Immediate annihilation of thoughts
Becomes an instantaneous affair
Footprints disappearing
From unfixed journey's volatile paths,
Amidst the muted winter's clutter
Of fallen useless prose
Is it an extravaganza or minimal
Kindness of providence?
That I am born, dead
And reborn continuously...
Through the process of endless
Experimentation of emotions,
Some mutating, some reviving
Some self destructing!
Is this the question unknown or
The definite reply that is
Both visible and invisible at once
To my multi featured insight.
Am I aware or divinely ignorant?
Of the world around me, I prod as I
Dive into the whirlpool of thoughts
One more time with greed...
Should I happen to remember you again?
I may not be me!
Such was the severity of some casual thoughts,
As I sat alone and let my heart loose!

|Listen Up (oil on canvas)
Heather Millar (2009)
I've looked through a gallery of some of Millar's work (again, check out the sources), and it appears that she went through a period where she painted a lot of close ups of dolls. I'll be honest, most of them creep me out, but they are pretty interesting. I was reading an EW piece about the production design, and Macht claims that the paintings in Harvey's office refer to his sense of humor. I guess a painting of a toy does suggest something a little whimsical. But at the same time, its modernity keeps even the whimsical sleek and clean like Millar's paintings.
|The Gift (oil on canvas)
Heather Millar (2011)
I feel like this painting corresponds perfectly to the character of Rachel, who is classically lovely. At the same time, the men whispering in the background suggests Rachel's own insecurities in the prestigious law office. Perhaps more importantly, it is an essentially feminine piece that fits Rachel's personality and, most importantly, the classy look and color scheme of the room.
I'm really impressed by the range of Millar's work. Both pieces do represent a realist style, but they are so thematically different that they really speak to the variety of her work. I'll definitely be keeping an eye on her portfolio from now on- just as I'll be watching each new episode of Suits with anticipation. I'll keep marveling over that incredible production design and keep my eye out for some new interesting paintings.

The stock market has been flirting with 13,000 for days, a level at which it has not closed since 2008. As ThinkProgress' Scott Keyes reported, Republicans have been at pains to explain why President Obama deserves no credit for the Dow's rebound (even though the GOP was quite willing to blame Obama when the Dow tanked in 2008 and 2009).
But as it turns out, Obama is not the only Democratic President under whom the stock market has done well for investors. A Bloomberg Government report shows that since the 1960′s, stocks have done significantly better under Democratic administrations than under Republican ones:
The BGOV Barometer shows that, over the five decades since John F. Kennedy was inaugurated, $1,000 invested in a hypothetical fund that tracks the Standard & Poor's 500 Index (SPX) only when Democrats are in the White House would have been worth $10,920 at the close of trading yesterday.
That's more than nine times the dollar return an investor would have realized from following a similar strategy during Republican administrations. A $1,000 stake invested in a fund that followed the S&P 500 under Republican presidents, starting with Richard Nixon, would have grown to $2,087 on the day George W. Bush left office.
Analysis: Stock Returns Are Significantly Higher When A Democrat Is President
Current Status: Blessed (1)

Save on Printing Expenses without Sacrificing Quality with a Compatible Printer Cartridge
If you own any type of printer for personal or business use, then you realize that changing out the printer cartridge is simply a part of life. Printers operate on ink, whether through black and color ink cartridges or a laser toner cartridge. Both require replacement when the ink or toner runs out, and some are easier to find at an affordable price than others. After all, most printer manufacturers price their printers so reasonably because they charge such high prices for replacement cartridges. Here are some quick tips about buying compatible cartridges without sacrificing print quality.
Compatible printer cartridges are either 100 percent new or remanufactured. These are rebuilt or refurbished products that are made from original cartridges. Rebuilt with brand new parts, they are guaranteed to work the same as cartridges directly from the original manufacturer. Please note that using a compatible printer cartridge will not void your printer's warranty. They are built to OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) standards so they will perform as well as or better than OEM cartridges. They also yield the same amount of pages so true money savings can be realized if you normally do a lot of printing.
Perfect for Businesses
If you own a business that requires ongoing printing, you might easily print hundreds or thousands of pages per week. The more you print, the faster your laser printer toner or ink cartridges will run out. This means having to pay out every time for new cartridges. With compatible cartridges, you can get quality replacements at a fraction of the cost without worrying that your printing will be sub-standard. You might even get a discount if ordering in bulk - it's a two-fold benefit!
MICR Toner
MICR (Magnetic Ink Character Recognition) toner is used to print specific symbols and numerals. These are used to print bank checks and other important documents in the United States as well as many other countries. It's crucial to buy MICR toner of the highest quality, especially when buying a compatible printer cartridge. These are used by banks and other check-printing companies, and low quality cartridges can cause a suspicion of fraud or counterfeiting. Compatible products are available for Dell MICR, IBM MICR, HP MICR, Canon MICR and Lexmark MICR.
When buying a compatible cartridge online, you can use specific search terms or visit a well known, secure website with a good customer rating. Search terms should be based on the brand and model you're buying the cartridge for, such as HP printer cartridges, Lexmark printer cartridges, Dell printer cartridge or Brother printer cartridge.
When ordering online, be sure to read all the terms of sale, guarantees and how the cartridges are manufactured. With the right printer cartridge store, you can save hundreds of dollars on good quality printer products!

In this video footage released by CNN on Friday, protesters en route to a rally in support of former Honduran President Manuel Zelaya find their travels cut short when a troop of soldiers, apparently representing the same military force that ousted Zelaya last Sunday and replaced him with Roberto Micheletti, move in and shoot out their bus tires.
According to CNN, the video was made by a Zelaya supporter using a cell phone camera in Limones, about 70 miles outside the Honduran capital of Tegucigalpa.
Another video of the same incident was posted on the Youtube Internet site Thursday under the title "Golpe de estado en Honduras" (Coup in Honduras).
CNN reporters in Honduras have received reports from Zelaya supporters who say troops have stopped buses bringing protesters from the countryside to prevent them from attending rallies in Tegucigalpa.
Honduran military officials said they were unaware of any such incidents.
"I have not been informed of this incident. I cannot confirm or deny it," Honduran Army spokesman Col. Ramiro Archaga told CNN by phone.
The military's main job is to protect the nation's borders, Archaga said, "not guaranteeing internal security."
Hector Ivan Mejia, spokesman for the Security Ministry, said he had no information of buses being fired upon.
"Protesters will be arrested for vandalic acts but they will not simply be stopped on their way to protests," Mejia said.
