lynda.com Joomla! instructor Jen Kramer is in the midst of writing her first book.
Talented lynda.com Joomla! instructor Jen Kramer is in the midst of writing her first book, entitled Joomla! Start to Finish: How to Plan, Execute, and Maintain Your Website which is available now as an Amazon.com pre-order. Congrats Jen!
We've been enjoying her blog posts and tweets that have been keeping us looped into the Joomla! world, and now her book-writing experiences. It's a much longer process than recording a lynda.com training course, and she's doing a beautiful job of it. When I asked about the differences between book writing and video training, she had this to say:
"In a movie, I have to think carefully about a single example and the flow of one task to another. Personally, I don't need a lot of notes—I can wax poetic about Joomla off the top of my head.
"In the book, I spend much more time explaining screens, because I can't necessarily show how they work the way you can in a movie. There is much more to say and explain in a book, little things that I might normally talk about in a movie, or not even say, just do.
"I'm trying to make this book much more than the usual 'click here' type of book. So many technical books explain how to complete certain tasks, but they never explain why you're doing what you're doing. My lynda.com movies are popular, I think, because I took the time to explain certain error messages you might get (and what you did wrong to get them), why you might want to do one thing over another, and certain ways to enhance your Joomla site that really bring value to the final product, not necessarily just because you can do them."
For more from Jen, be sure to check out her blog and tweets.

JERUSALEM (Mar. 31)
Israel will "definitely" and "soon" exercise her right to passage of shipping through the Suez Canal, Foreign Ministry officials declared here today in comment on President Gamal Abdel Nasser's statement in Cairo that Egypt would continue to bar Israel passage through the canal and the Gulf of Akaba until the Arab refugee issue is settled. He insisted that both matters were part of the same problem.
The Israeli officials, however, stressed that there was no connection between Suez Canal passage, an international right of all nations, and the refugee issue which is part of an Arab-Israel settlement.
Israeli newspapers warned the West today that Col. Nasser's linking of the issues of right of passage with a solution of the refugee problem was a form of blackmail which boded ill for other nations, too. They pointed out that Nasser could just as logically close the canal to French vessels until Algeria were evacuated and to British shipping until the British quit Aden.

I have seen ps who is very well respected but i am unsure of the advice given due to what i have read. I am 5ft 5in 110 pounds. I breast fed two children my bust dropped from d/d to c cup i don't think they are saggy i do feel they have lost there volume, size. The upper pole being the biggest concern. My ps said he would advise over muscle anatomical 255cc. I want to look natural but want volume and for the implant not to be visible or rippling. Base width diameter is 14.

Best Breast Implant Size/ Profile for Me?
Thank you for the question and picture. Although online consultants will not be able to provide you with specific enough advice, some general thoughts may be helpful to you.
The best online advice I can give to ladies who are considering breast augmentation surgery is:
1. Concentrate on choosing your plastic surgeon carefully. Concentrate on appropriate training, certification, and the ability of the plastic surgeon to achieve the results you're looking for. Ask to see lots of examples of his/her work. 2. Have a full discussion and communication regarding your desired goals with your plastic surgeon. This communication will be critical in determining breast implant size/type/profile will most likely help achieve your goals. In my practice, the use of photographs of "goal" pictures (and breasts that are too big or too small) is very helpful. I have found that the use of words such as "natural" or "full C or D cup" etc means different things to different people and therefore prove unhelpful. Also, as you know, cup size varies depending on him who makes the bra; therefore, discussing desired cup size may also be inaccurate. 3. Once you feel you have communicated your goals clearly, allow your plastic surgeon to use his/her years of experience/judgment to choose the breast implant size/profile that will best meet your goals. Again, in my practice, this decision is usually made during surgery.
I hope this (and the attached link) help.

Breast Augmentation Advice
Thank you for your question.
There really is no good reason to place the implants in a subglandular (over the muscle) position. There are some surgeons who prefer this technique but there are many good reasons to place the implants in the subpectoral position (under the muscle). In the subpectoral position, you will lower the risk of capsular contracture, rippling, and significant atrophy (loss of breast tissue thickness). Rippling, implant visibility, breast tissue thinning, and capsular contracture are very common when implants are placed over the muscle.
I generally would use a round smooth implant through an axillary (arm pit) incision for patients with similar breast size and build like you. This provides excellent results and minimizes the risks mentioned above. I do not see any advantage of a textured anatomic implant in your case and you could definitely have a larger implant than 255 cc and still natural. Good luck.

I would consider a slightly larger implant in fact under muscle Sientra texture round base silicone would look great

Breast Augmentation Advice
It is important that you become familiar with all of your surgical options and learn the advantages and disadvantages of each. Specifically, you need to think about the reasons for placing an implant above or below the muscle, the issues related to round and shaped (anatomical) implants, the implications of your chest measurement with respect to your implant size and the pros and cons of saline and silicone implants. These topics should be thoroughly reviewed during your consultation and you should get several opinions if you are uncertain. Also, make sure you are comfortable with your physician and that he/she spends time with you and that you are not rushed or pressured. Although choosing a board certified plastic surgeon is no guarantee of success, I believe it increases the likelihood of a positive outcome.

Advice for breast augmentation
As you can see from the responses on this site, there is no consensis as to the 'best' breast augmentation for you. You should know that experience has taught us that a smooth round moderate profile submuscular breast augmentation, moderate volume, 350cc and less, gives wonderful results with the fewest problems. Tried and true, this works very well for most who seek breast implants.
Learn more: http://www.peterejohnsonmd.com
Implant issues
I usually prefer to place implants under the muscle for better upper pole coverage. I do not like anatomic or textured because the texture does not allow the implants to "jiggle" or move naturally. They get held up. Anatomics can turn as well. Go for a second opinion if you are unsure. Good luck.
Advice for Breast Augmentation?
I concur that your breasts do not sag, and abreast lift does not need consideration. The chosen implant size will probably give you a bit more than a cup size of increase, though there are no uniform definitions of cup size.
Most surgeons in this country prefer placing the implants under the pectoral muscle. The advantages include:
- Less chance of capsular contracture
- Less chance of palpable (and visible) rippling.
- Less chance of visibility of the upper edge of the implant
- Better visibility for mammography.
The primary disadvantage is that of "animation" or movement of the breast due to compression of the implants when the pectoral muscle is flexed.
Nonetheless, there are exceptions to all generalizations, and the examining surgeon who discusses the pros and cons with you has an edge over all of us who have only seen one photo. If you are in doubt, a second opinion is in order.
Thanks and best wishes.
Gummy bear implants for over the muscle augmentation and less rippling
I agree that over the muscle placement has some advantages as long as the surgeon puts them in the subfascial plane and not the subglandular plane. If you want upper pole fullness, then round implants would achieve that better than the anatomics. The main benefit of over the muscle placement is relates to women who like to do chest workouts (including yoga, Pilates, etc). If you go under the muscle and work out your pectoral muscles, your breasts will move and look like 2 puppies fighting under your shirt. Over time, the pectoral muscles will cause the implants to drift apart and downward. The "gummy bear" silicone implants would be the best for you. Not only are they cohesive gel, but they are "thicker" than standard implants and have a more form-stable filler that keeps it's shape better with less tendency to ripple. My website has more info on breast implants if you are interested. If I can help you in any other way, please contact me. I hope it goes well.

Plastic surgery is an interesting specialty as there are often many ways to approach a problem.
This can be confusing to the patient who receives a different opinion from each of the five surgeons they consult.
In your case, however, I would absolutely recommend you have your implants placed under the muscle.
You will receive a more natural look, it will be easier to undergo mammograms in the future and you will have a lower risk of capsular contracture.
I suggest you seek out another experienced aesthetic breast surgeon.
Good luck!

Breast Augmentation Advice
There is no good reason to place the implants in a subglandular (over the muscle) position, and there are many compelling reasons to place the implants in the subpectoral position. In the subpectoral position, you will enjoy the benefit of decreasing your risk of capsular contracture, rippling, glandular ptosis (hanging of the breast tissue), and significant atrophy (loss of breast tissue thickness). Additionally, it is the preferred position for mammograms. The potential issues of 'window shading' or dynamic deformities associated with subpectoral placement are virtually non-existent when appropriately sized implants are chosen. On the other hand, rippling, implant visibility, breast tissue thinning, and capsular contracture are very common when implants are placed over the muscle.
As far as shaped versus anatomic implants are concerned, your photo suggests that a round/smooth implant will give you an excellent and natural augmentation without the need for a shape/textured implant.
Best of luck!

To The Editor,
I would like to thank the community for their support during the Christmas Holiday. I know at my fire station it was nice to receive the cake and cookies from Bethany Lutheran Church on Christmas Eve, the three pies on Christmas Day from a gentleman, and the others who brought cookies and other goodies to the fire station.
I know that this was the first time in my career that I have experienced this and it was very heartwarming to be the recipient of the outpouring of community support for those of us that worked over the Christmas holiday.
Thanks again,
Respectfully submitted,

It is by experience that I write this article. After my husband, Audie, retired he learned that his clean clothes did not just appear in the drawers and clean clothes in the closet; hot meals did not just appear on the table like magic or when stuff was spilled on the floor it didn't just magically disappear or how the living room was always apple pie order when he got home from work.
Now before you might think he must have been stupid not to know how all this came about, he was not ignorant of all that was happening around here at home, but just didn't, like so many husbands, more that we can ever know, take these things for granted.
Also, how many of us wives really know just what all our husbands do around the house? A screen door that has been sagging for a long time suddenly is fixed; a leaking lavatory suddenly no longer leaks; the headlight on the car that was smashed when you tried to push your son's car to get it started is no longer smashed but appears to have never happened. I could go on and on with things my husband did around the house, knowing that he did these things but just like the expression says, "In one ear and out the other," UNTIL one day you face widowhood.
Now you really begin to see what all he did do and you don't know how to fix and do so many things. For instance:
A wreck and he takes care of all the details.
Bills have to be paid and he pays them, although my husband and I always worked on this together but so many couples do not do this.
He handles the checkbook so you don't know how to balance the checkbook or write a check or know how much is in the bank, you just trust him.
Property is bought and he takes care of all the paper work and seeing the lawyer, and all you do is sign your name after everything is taken care of.
You trust your husband as he does you BUT when one of you is left behind by death then what? Sometimes it is the wife that takes care of all these things and it is just as bad.
All I can relate to is that I am a widow now but a lot I could do, and he let me, or we worked together but there are things I have never done and we did not think about it at the time "what if there come a time when I had to do these things all by myself?" My latest experience was a car wreck, next came taking care of getting the trees trimmed; the driveway resurfaced; preparing taxes, who do I get; the toilet needs a new seal; a vent pipe replaced so it is safe; a new furnace replaced; etc. etc.
Husbands, get busy and teach your wives all you can possibly teach them if you should be taken first. Where to go for help, who do you contact? Etc. etc. Now wives, teach your husbands how to cook, and by the way there are husbands that are better cooks than their wives, we aren't talking about them, just the ones who do not cook. Also, teach them how to separate clothes to wash and make them acquainted with the functions of a washing machine and an ironing board and the sewing machine.
My husband could use all these, in fact, he could iron a white shirt better than I could. The Army helped out a lot along these lines, BUT Audie didn't teach me how to fix the faucet, light the hot water heater, change a tire, or do other things about the car which I really did need to know. It didn't seem to be important at the time but now . . .
Through all this, I am so thankful to the Lord that he gave me two wonderful sons and a daughter that helps me. But he gave me a wonderful son-in-law that has been such a wonderful blessing to me in doing so many things around the house that needed to be done. I say "God Bless Him." But there are so many wives that do not have this kind of help when their husbands go, so husbands please teach your wife all you can, ditto for the wives too. God Bless.

Waynedale News,
I'd like to point out that, without the genius of eccentric billionaire Howard Hughes, tens of thousands more American military men and women would've been killed in World War II, Korea, and Vietnam and that he, more than anyone else, was the chief factor in building America's military strength. In 1931, Hughes' Tool Company created drill bits, which increased oil extraction 12-fold and cut drilling time in half. Without plentiful oil and its derivatives, it is possible that we could've lost World War II. In 1941, Hughes became the largest supplier of weapons to the United States for World War II. 1941-43, he doubled the rate of fire for 50 caliber machine guns by designing a revolutionary new feed chute. In 1947, he created the airborn troop carrier, which enables soldiers and equipment to arrive at conflict zones in hours instead of days.
1950-56, Hughes' invention of the air-to-air missile with seek-and-find radar made him so valuable to the military that President Harry Truman called him "the human linchpin of America's air defenses." In 1959, Hughes developed the battle-conditioned helicopter, used extensively in the Vietnam conflict. In the 1960's, he invented the first unmanned satellite, ushering in the era of communications craft in the sky, which has become an integral part of the modern world.
Terry Smith
(From a S.A.L. (Sons of the American Legion) Newsletter)
The younger generation now says we shouldn't have dropped the atomic bomb on Japan. But before you can come to this kind of conclusion, you have to stop and think that there were a lot of U.S. prisoners in Japan. I happen to know one of them and he told me his Japanese guards had already been given orders to shoot all of the prisoners if we invaded Japan. How can anybody say we shouldn't have dropped this bomb when I honestly believe it saved a lot of American lives? Our old ship was a part of that history. This was war and you have to understand that you're sitting out there and there is some enemy trying to kill you every single minute, every single hour of the day and you never know for sure when it's gonna come. Wait until you're in that position, then you might be able to make some comment on the bomb with some kind of intelligence.

I think they should realize the sacrifice that was made for them to have the freedom that they have today in this country. I just don't think that young people realize the freedom that they have cost a lot of bodies out there. I think that when they come outta high school now, it should almost be mandatory that they spend a couple of years in the military. They call us heroes. No. The heroes are still out there in my book. We were the lucky ones. Those are the guys who gave their lives.

Post Edited (Jay Mack) : 9/19/2005 8:28:59 PM GMT
Thanks for all of the great information. I test rode a R1200RT yesterday and that's all it took. I'm picking up the bike on Saturday! I used to have a 2002 LT and had the same problem as Cimer. At 5'9" I never really felt comfortable manuvering the bike in tight places like crowded gas stations. I then got a K1200RS and got tired of always leaning forward. I feel the R1200RT is a nice compromise! As far as the looks of the bike, I really didn't care for it much at first but it has really grown on me. I'll keep you all posted on my new ownership experiences and look forward to reading yours as well!
To late to catch the link up to the ride/test-run on said BMW.
Bar one thing I would probably have at least one BMW in my garage rather then three sportbikes. To ride from my town to Vancouver, through the worst trafffic in B.C., would be a one day trip there, latch onto a motel to sleep that evenin before I go home, the next day, & prior time looking at & discussing the BMW line. So there goes two days & a bit of cost.
Okay so let us say I do order one & put down 50 to 75% of the money so they bring in the bike. Okay it is have someone drive me there, only being such a loner it would be $110.00 (as of a few months ago) for a bus trip, again said motel as I do all the money stuff, registeration, LP,insurance, along with this & that. Mind you riding home will be on NEW bike in said worst traffic in B.C. Actually this could be my third trip to Vancouver as 2nd might have been some discussion on the bike & good chance they do not have the very model I wanted.
Finally home & using the bike & getting to like it only something goes wrong with the bike---a warantee situation & not a personal accident. Now comes the toll of lining up a firm that will truck it back to the dealer & that will be probably close to the cost of of the bus trip for AGAIN I will have to use the Bus along with a motel ONLY to find out the bike cannot be touched for a day or two. Had it been an accident then the trips would have been extended & time for parts & work on the bike would be even longer spaced.
Like we have not even got the bike back yet & more costs before I do. I guess that is the reason I do not have a BMW but three Jpn bikes YET I did own a BMW 500cc way back in '53 only moved to Banff, Alberta to set up a sportshop & no need of street irons so back to dirt bikes in those yrs. Obviously the BMW dealers are way to far away for me, but not the Jpn dealers even if none are in my town or closest city.

Mark, I know what you mean. I had a Road King, Dyna Low Rider and Sportster, so maybe that's why the vibration doesn't bother me!
I now have close to 600 miles on the RT and just can't believe how nice of a bike it is! I can't wait to take it on some longer trips after the initial service. I really like how easy it is to configure the bike for the type of ride your taking...leave the bags on or very easily take them off.
Take care!

Life & Style Needs To STFU
For f**k's sake, Shiloh Jolie-Pitt cuts her hair and wears jeans and this tabloid rag calls in the experts to claim the 3-year-old has entered "cross-dresser territory." She's a tomboy, there is nothing wrong with that, and she is awesome. Seriously, this kind of tabloid fodder makes me want to crawl into a hole and never come out, it is so evil. From here on out, Life & Style won't be getting linked to from The Frisky. Cretins.

Basic Functions: The aspect ratio of your image will be preserved by a proportional reduction in height. Sharpening is recommended if you are reducing your image by more than half. Sharpening increases filesize slightly relative to the same reduction unsharpened. "New Width" for 90-degree rotations is applied to the rotated image, not the source image. Images may be rotated without resizing if "New Width" is left blank. Reduction of very large GIFs is inefficient and in such cases the filesize may increase.
Text Embedding: Text is added after all other operations have completed. You can embed text without resizing your image if "New Width" is left blank.

Companies under our radar screen in the data center and CDN sector closed mixed in November, after experiencing, as a group, strong declines in October, when all stocks but Telecity Group were in the red.
Post-earnings performance was also mixed, as most data center related stocks closed negatively after announcing Q3 numbers, and four companies only showed some sort of moderate upside.
Q3 2012 post-earnings performance
Here is a quick look at how each individual company performed after announcing Q3 earnings:
It is interesting to note that Equinix (NASDAQ:EQIX) has performed positively after earnings since Q1 2011, and that Akamai (NASDAQ:AKAM) remains the most volatile stock in the sector. Its recent 7% increase after earnings is actually the only time, since Q1 2011, that the company hasn't experienced a double-digit movement after announcing quarterly results.
November 2012 and YTD performance
After suffering double-digit decreases in October, Digital Realty (NYSE:DLR), Equinix, Dupont Fabros (NYSE:DFT) and CoreSite (NYSE:COR) rebounded nicely in November. CoreSite, in particular, was the best performer in our small group of related companies, with an almost 13% increase. Internap (NASDAQ:INAP) and 21Vianet (NASDAQ:VNET) were among the worst performers, losing more than 10% in this month alone.
Year-to-date, several data center related companies show very strong performances, with network-neutral players delivering the most convincing gains as a group:
Turning our attention to REITs, it looks like wholesalers like Digital Realty and Dupont Fabros are underperforming because of recent concerns about their ability to sustain stable pricing for new projects and on renewals. When evaluating their performances it should be noted, however, that these stocks exited 2011 with good gains (+29.4% and +13.9%, respectively), and also distributed dividends to investors, unlike other companies under our radar screen.
Analysts like Jonathan Schildkraut, from Evercore, see these worries concerning pricing as road bumps that will be removed once competition from new entrants in the wholesale sector is reduced, as he explains in relation to Digital Realty:
We believe that with ample development capacity available in key markets, and DLR's relatively short lead time from construction to launch, the company is well positioned to benefit from an uptick in wholesale activity once excess capacity is fully absorbed, and the secular trend resumes its longer-term trajectory.
Data center related stocks experienced relative weakness in the last few months, after a very strong performance in the first half of the year. We believe the sector remains among the most interesting in technology, as secular trends like growing Internet consumption and cloud computing put most of these stocks at the intersection of strong customer demand and Wall Street's attention.
Disclosure: I am long EQIX. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from Seeking Alpha). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.

Problems creating a package file
Hello everyone.
I'd like to create my own package of some plotting routines but I'm having problems getting routines to work within the package. I suspect my context is not right. I created PlotRoutines.m via File/SaveAsSpecial/PackageFormat and placed it in a PlotUtilities directory within the ExtraPackages directory:
Package for plot routines *)
TagPoints::usage = "Tag Polygons with '1' which satisfy passed inequality"
TagPoints[inequality_][p_] :=
Block[{x, y, z}, {x, y, z} = p; If[inequality, {p, 1}],{p, 2}]];
It takes a Graphics3D object and tests each coordinate of each Polygon matching the search criteria specified in the inequality and is suppose to append either a 1 or a 2 to each coordinate. I'd call it as:
<< PlotUtilities`PlotRoutines`
p1=Graphics3D[Plot3D[some plot here]]
p1 /. Polygon[pts_] :> Polygon[TagPoints[z â?¥ 2] /@ pts];
However it doesn't update the polygons and I know it works when I create the TagPoints function within the notebook. Also, I noticed when I first create the *.m file, Mathematica adds (* *) to the file which I remove. Not sure what to do. Can someone help me?

You guys, this Super Mario World script is really, really bad. Even Max Landis admits it's horrible. He wrote the script when he was just 19, but he had the cojones to post it on his site (which you have to admire) along with a foreword detailing the script's many issues. Let's start with it being a whopping 435 pages long and that it contains a ridiculous character list that includes Banjo and Kazooie. This is definitely in "so bad it's good" territory.
Read Landis's forward after the break.

While most consider Mexico's east coast (Cancun, Playa del Carmen and the Mayan Rivera in the Yucatan Peninsula) the more popular and "tourist friendly" side, it's the west coast of this country that is filled with lesser known destinations and unique travel experiences. From the border of the United States, down to the southernmost state of Chiapas, there's culture, beautiful coastline and activities that would rival any destination on the east coast.
The sister resort towns of Ixtapa and Zihuatanejo have become one of the most visited destinations along this coast. Think of Ixtapa as the Cancun of this side of Mexico, as it was a city built for tourism. Zihuatanejo could be considered the "Playa del Carmen" of the region as it organically developed from a small fishing village into a beautiful and peaceful resort town, perfect for honeymooners and couples.
The powdery beaches in Zihuatanejo hug the coastline, with the Sierre Madre Mountains in the background. Most of the smaller resorts are located on a cliff overlooking a bay, offering unobstructed views of the magnificent sunsets this region is known for. There are plenty of activities in the area: fishing, surfing and touring small, quaint villages. The town itself is filled with cantinas and outdoor markets for a festive night out. If you client is a foodie, suggest a fun cooking class at Zihuatanejo's cooking school (www.zihuatanejocookingschool.com). For dinners, there are romantic restaurants located up on the cliffs; Espuma in the Villa Guadalupe Hotel (www.hotelvillaguadalupe.com) and Il Mare, (www.ilmareristorante.mx) are not to be missed. Down from the cliffs and into town, a favorite of both locals and tourists is Coconut (www.restaurantcoconuts.com).
More than beaches
In the state of Nayarit, beginning with the historic town of San Blas and moving southward there are beautiful deserted beaches and 5-star luxury resorts. "Riviera Nayarit," as it has become to be known, stretches along 192 miles of the pristine Pacific coast. Framed by the majestic Sierra Madre Mountain range, it is located just ten minutes north of the very accessible Puerto Vallarta International Airport. The region extends along the entire coast of the Pacific state of Nayarit, including the resorts of Nuevo Vallarta, the historic colonial town of San Blas, exclusive Punta Mita, picturesque fishing villages, miles of serene beaches and the spectacular Banderas Bay. The origins of Nayarit are found in the indigenous ethnic groups of the Cora and Huichol Indians who settled in the Sierra Madre; to this day preserving their rich culture and ancient beliefs through their unique beaded artwork. Nayarit has everything to offer...history, culture, traditions, surf, dense jungles and ecotourism. Accommodations range from family all-inclusive resorts to romantic hideaways. The Grand Velas Resort (www.vallarta.grandvelas.com), is an all-inclusive AAA-5 Diamond resort on the northern tip of the Bay of Banderas and in Punta De Mita, the Four Seasons Punta Mita (www.fourseasons.com/puntamita) boasts a Jack Nicklaus golf course. In addition to the larger resorts, Imanta (www.imantaresorts.com), a secluded luxury hideaway consisting of just nine villas, is the perfect spot for honeymooners. Migrating humpback whales pass through the Bay of Banderas from December through March, while July begins the nesting season for sea turtles. The Sierra Madre offers hiking, horseback riding and the ever-popular zip lining through the dense jungle canopy. Water sports are endless with sailing, deep-sea fishing, snorkeling and scuba diving, all available from nearby tours operators who have set up shop in the area. The largest operator, Vallarta Adventures (www.vallarta-adventures.com), is able to provide all types of excursions.
Down the Pacific Coast
Traveling even further down the Pacific coast, the state of Oaxaca is rich in culture and charm. Oaxaca covers an area of over 36,000 square miles with 370 miles of coastline along the Pacific. The resort area known as Huatulco consists of many isolated bays and beaches with rugged, unspoiled terrain. This region is great for surfers and those who want a more rustic beach getaway. There are a variety of hotels here including the more popular all-inclusive resorts: the Barcelo (www.barcelo.com) and Dreams (www.dreamsresorts.com).
Further inland to Oaxaca City, the capital city in the state of the same name, is a romantic Spanish colonial city tucked into the valley of the Sierra Madre mountains offering art, food and history galore. Along with the quaint cobblestone streets, striking Baroque cathedrals and grand plazas there's ancient ruins, majestic landscape and a culinary scene to satisfy the most discerning connoisseur from local street food to sophisticated restaurants.
We've just touched upon the endless vacation opportunities here. There are many more destinations including the very popular Puerto Vallarta and Acapulco. For more information on the "other side of Mexico," go to www.visitmexico.com.

'Backyard' goes to the graveyard
Page Tools
Don Burke ponders his future.
Photo: Ben Rushton
Don Burke is one of television's hardy perennials and believes his age is one reason Burke's Backyard has been axed by the Nine Network after 17 years.
"I think most of the television networks are looking for a very young image nowadays," the 57-year-old gardening expert said. "Obviously . . . they want people under 30.
"I think it's great to give these younger people a chance, but it's important to have a mix."
Burke said he learned at the weekend that Nine would air the final episode of Burke's Backyard on November 26. He is disappointed, but had sensed the network's attitude to his show shifted after David Gyngell became Nine's chief executive this year.
"To be honest, I never wanted to be on television in the first place," said the man who made his small-screen debut on September 12, 1987, and turned plants into a prime-time event.
"Collecting a Logie (he has six) was one of the most gut-wrenching moments of my life and the loss of privacy can be amazing," he said. Burke said his main concern was for staff who will lose their jobs at his Sydney production company, CTC Productions.
The Nine Network paid tribute to Burke, praising his show for pioneering the "infotainment television genre". It will continue to air Backyard Blitz, hosted by Jamie Durie and produced by Burke's CTC Productions.
Burke's Backyard's ratings have fallen since 2001 when it attracted more than 1.6 million viewers. On average, 1.1 million viewers tuned in this year and the show occasionally lost its Friday evening slot to rivals such as Everybody Loves Raymond and Auction Squad. It is believed Nine wanted Burke's Backyard to return next year but was negotiating with Burke for fewer episodes than previously. The breakdown of negotiations prompted the network to axe the program.
Asked about his most memorable Backyard moment, Burke recalled the day he climbed naked into a peat bog for a segment on peat moss. "It was in the Southern Highlands and the temperature in there was about two or three degrees," he said. "I was in there for 45 minutes and I almost died. I was temporarily blind and it took two hours to thaw me out."

Starting from the left-hand side, you can see the Americas are up 20%, overall; excluding Thomas & Betts, up 10%. And really good progress in both power and automation, power, up 26%; and automation, up 16%. So we were pleased with what we see in the Americas for this quarter. Moving to the right, we look at the Middle East and Africa, up 34%, and good progress in both power and automation in that area. And it's good that we could drive some good orders realization in that part of the world for this quarter.Moving more to the right is ASIA, minus 1%. In the next page, we'll talk more about how we can dissect Asia for you, and how that works. But overall, power, up 12%; and automation, down 8%. And then in Europe, up 2%: with automation, up 4%; and power, up 2%, in that sense. And we were really pleased to see Europe as strong as it was from an order standpoint, given the economic uncertainty that obviously exists in Europe right now. Moving to Chart 6. This just breaks down from a country standpoint more than how we look at things at regions, so you can get a better look at the business. You see Canada was up 30%, up 10% excluding T&B. United States is up 13%, and exclude T&B, overall. And Brazil, up 12%. When you look up above, on Norway, plus 47%. A lot of that has to do with marine and then oil and gas is associated with marine. The U.K. up 35%. You can see Russia up 15%. Germany, down 10%. We have 1 tough comparison, Discrete Automation and Motion in Germany. But overall, you see the German side down. We talked about a two-tier Europe though, with Spain, minus 30%; and Italy, minus 13%. We continue to see pressure in that area. We had strong orders in Oman, up 10x, particularly in our power automation business, overall, in the power and automation businesses. India was up 11%. In fact, we saw good operations turn around in India, too, which is establishing a positive trend force. China was down 2% overall, but the Low Voltage Products, which is our biggest concern in the first quarter, actually came back pretty strongly. And then you can see Australia is up 49%. And again, that's the mining industry there, primarily, and that teams are doing a good job in driving our portfolio in that industry in Australia.

Top seed Rafael Nadal cruised into the quarterfinals of the Qatar Open with a routine 6-2, 6-2 victory over qualifier Denis Gremelmayr on Wednesday.
The unfancied German had won a solitary game in their only previous meeting and fared little better in windy Doha, Nadal pounding his fellow left-hander from the outset.
"The conditions weren't easy, you try to move your legs at the last moment," the Spaniard said in a court-side interview.
"I didn't have a chance to practice a lot in the off-season, not as much as I would have liked. These matches are really important and the best practice I can have."
Nadal had been troubled by a shoulder injury for several weeks but there was little sign of this as Gremelmayr, ranked 189 in the world, was forced to save a break point in the opening game.
The German lost his next service game, a poor forehand into the net putting Nadal 2-1 ahead and a break up.
Nadal seemed determined to avoid another long match after taking more than two-and-a-half hours to defeat first-round opponent Philipp Kohlschreiber in three sets on Tuesday, with the schedule offering no rest days for the top seeds.

University Senate Committee: Faculty Personnel Committee
Charge to Committee (Brief History of Issue — why the issue is being considered): The Faculty Personnel Committee was asked by Senate Chair Wood to examine current Handbook language regarding grievances (FASH 5.36; UWEC implementation of UWS 6.02) and to propose changes if it deemed them appropriate.
Points Discussed by Committee:
Pros of Recommendation:
Cons of Recommendation:
The University Senate Faculty Personnel Committee, by a vote of 5 – 0 – 0 (for, against, abstain), on April 11, 2008, moves that the University Senate approve the following changes to the Faculty and Academic Staff Handbook, Chapter 5, page 36.
UWEC 6.02 Grievances
A grievance is a personnel problem involving a faculty member's assertion of unfair treatment or of dissatisfaction with
any aspects of his/her university rank, salary, or working conditions within the university which are not covered by other personnel rules.1
To the extent practical, all grievances should be settled through informal discussions at the lowest possible administrative level and may be discussed with progressively higher administrators in a mutually sincere effort to reach an acceptable settlement. (FS 11/86)
Any faculty member having a grievance that
has is not been resolved through regular university procedures covered by other personnel rules may submit a written statement of his/her grievance to the chair of the Faculty Complaint and Grievance Committee. The written statement of the grievance must be submitted within 300 days after the faculty member knew or reasonably should have known of the action or omission out of which the grievance has arisen, unless there are extenuating circumstances.
The committee will then determine …
Appeals concerning promotion in rank follow the procedure described on p. 28, Chapter 5. Appeals concerning nonrenewal of faculty members follow the procedure described on p. 23, Chapter 5.
Examples of matters covered by other personnel rules include, without limitation because of enumeration, appeals of non-renewal, denials of tenure or promotion, and discrimination or harassment based on any protected category.
Implementation date: upon approval.

NEW PORT RICHEY — Whenever Gulf needed a key basket, assist or rebound down the stretch, it seemed like guard Chris Gregory was right in the thick of things.
In a back-and-forth contest the 5-foot-10 sophomore shined, scoring 14 second-half points to help Gulf to a 61-55 victory over Anclote on Friday night at the Bever Hicks Center.
"My team trusted me with the ball when it counted the most," Gregory said. "They trust me, I trust them. I stepped up and made some big 3s. This was not only just a big district game, but a rivalry game. We just wanted to come out and earn a win."
Gulf (3-2, 2-2) took control early, with a 14-7 surge led by Gregory's seven points. Anclote (2-4, 2-2) climbed back into the game behind a solid effort on the boards, as the Sharks outrebounded the Buccaneers 37-25 and forced 11 first-half turnovers. The Sharks took their first lead with 1:35 left in the third quarter after a Dylan Walsh (six points) layup put Anclote up 38-37.
The momentum shifted in Gulf's favor with 6:36 remaining as Gregory (21 points, three assists) made a crucial layup and was fouled. He made the ensuing free throw to put the Bucs ahead 46-42. Anclote could not regain its footing, missing numerous layup opportunities in the final quarter.
Sevy Galati led the Sharks with 10 points and 10 rebounds.
"This loss stings because it's a district loss," Anclote coach Jason Szymanski said. "Our team missed 14 layups and I don't care who you are, but you're not going to win any game missing that many layups.
"We just have to regroup and find an offense that works."

Affirmative Action and Equity Compliance Summer Professional Development Series
NIU Policy Violations: A Managers Guide to Addressing Affirmative Action Complaints, Employee Discipline, and Corrective Action
Tuesday, June 18, 2013 from 1:00 pm to 2:30 pm
Room 345, Engineering Building
Affirmative Action and Equity Compliance will be conducting a Summer Professional Development Series for Faculty, SPS, and OS. The goal of the series is to provide practical information and resources to our employees that help foster fair and equal treatment of NIU employees, students, and the community. Each session will review the laws and policies that guide Affirmative Action at NIU as well as best practices and resources for implementing them in the workplace.
Northern Illinois University has policies and union contracts that dictate how managers, supervisors, and instructors should address allegations of discrimination, perform disciplinary action, and implement corrective action. The focus of this session is to provide guidelines, resources, and best practices for addressing performance issues that may violate NIU's non-discrimination policy, and/or union contracts regarding non-discrimination, and discipline. It is important for individuals in a supervisory role to understand that labor unions have contracts that include rigid procedures for taking disciplinary and corrective action. This session will give the basic tools for working within such policies and contractual agreements. A tentative agenda is as follows
- Addressing Possible Affirmative Action Policy Violations
The Initial Interview, General Guidelines for Conducting the Inquiry, General Guidelines for Interviewing Witnesses, General Guidelines for Interviewing the Alleged Offender, Writing the Report
- Corrective Action
Documentation Tools, Progressive Discipline, Discipline Notice Structure, Just Cause, Documentation Mistakes, Reasons to Use Documentation, Termination Process
For more information, contact Nikkita Carrington at email@example.com or 815.753.6037
Affirmative Action and Equity Compliance
Faculty Development and Instructional Design Center
Registration Information:
This program is open to NIU administrators and those who manage other employees. Registered participants will receive session materials. Seating is limited and advance registration is required.
Registration Deadline: June 13, 2013. Due to the expensive nature of the program and the advance notice needed for arranging materials, please register by the deadline here and plan to attend the entire institute.
After you register, if you are unable to attend, please cancel your registration by June 14, 2013 at http://j.mp/facdevprograms so that those on the waiting list may be given the opportunity to attend or costs can be reduced.

Published: January 16, 2013 at 3:02 AMAn extraordinarily helpful book. It reads like an on-line/e-publishing edition of Strunk and White's 'The Elements of Style.' Well organized. Clearly written. Chapter 6 ("Action Plan: Your StartUp Checklist") is worth the cover price.
I read through the entire book a couple of weeks ago. I am now re-reading it with a highlighter and pencil (notes in the margin).
By the way: This would be a PERFECT gift for a graduating high school student. Arming a student with the basic skills required to create and manage their own on-line community site is a great idea for a student entering either college or the professional world.

Lovely receptionist, we were upgraded, room exceptional a very good hotel experience.
Very friendly & helpful staff. Good value for money
Pleasant stay
Friendly and helpful staff, nothing too much trouble!
The leisure facilities are a real bonus
i think the crazy golf is great fun for a family
Good accommodation pity about the bed
We arrived on the Friday late evening for a two night stay.
It was bed without breakfast for £95 per night.This was an offer. The receptionist was very efficient and in no time we were in the lift to our room 224. The Jacuzzi double bath looked very inviting, except for the dirty looking sealing. Still it was otherwise clean. The only other problem in the bathroom was the toilet flush button, you will need to be very strong to push the flush. The bedroom was spacious with two chairs and coffee table, plenty of shelves and hangers for clothes. Good size television with nothing as usual to watch. The internet was so weak and intermittent that it was a complete waste of effort. There was a makeshift canopy above the bed. Still the high light of the whole two nights was the bed. It was the most uncomfortable bed we have ever slept on, well ( when it was possible to find a patch between the springs) sleeping is an understatement. The breakfast was plentiful and the cooked great except for the inferior, greasy bacon.

Padbrook Park Hotel
This is an excellent hotel.
Our room was spotlessly clean, as it was on our previous visit. The staff were again, polite and friendly. We thought the price of the breakfast was somewhat expensive, especially as you pay the same amount, whether you have a slice of toast, or a full English, but the quality of the food was superb. other than that, the hotel is highly recommended.

We thought this an excellent hotel.
Our room was spotlessly clean and immaculate. The staff were all polite, friendly and helpful. We felt that the breakfast was a little expensive, but the quality of the food was very good, so you get what you pay for. We will be returning to Cullumpton within the next two weeks, so we hope to be able to stay at this hotel again.

amazing place, so family friendly
So happy to have found this great hotel in Devon.
Stayed for 2 nights and wished we had booked for longer. The family room was spacious, spotlessly clean, well equipped and very comfortable. Stayed with a 17 and 13 year old and there was plenty to keep them entertained. I was especially impressed with the low cost of a days golf, pool table and the crazy golf. The food was awesome; it was plentiful, tasty and good value with a really wide selection. Excellent staff who were welcoming and helpful. Highly recommend this place and will definitely be going back.

Family break
Used this hotel when visiting Diggerland and Escot country Park.
Family room was above kitchens and therefore a little noisy with extractor fans running below us until late. Staff were very friendly and accomodating of the children. Food ok.

President Obama gave a major address on climate change on Tuesday, outlining some important steps to reduce our production of greenhouse gases that make the planet warmer. But far too many people are being terribly naive about one particular passage:
While Obama did not explicitly endorse or reject the Keystone XL pipeline, a major issue for climate activists, he did state in the speech that the pipeline should only be approved if it "does not significantly exacerbate the problem of carbon pollution." "The pipeline's effect on climate will be absolutely critical to determining whether this project will go forward," he said.
The draft environmental impact analysis the State Department released in March found that it wouldn't dramatically increase emissions, prompting environmentalists to worry about what that means for the administration's decision. The EPA, however, has said that State's evaluation of the greenhouse gas impact of the pipeline isn't good enough. A senior administration official told reporters on Monday night that the State Department is still awaiting a final environmental analysis. "This proposal is not yet ready for a decision," the official reiterated.
That phrase "significantly exacerbate" is very important. It gives him all the wiggle room he needs to approve it while claiming that it will only marginally increase carbon in the atmosphere by some statistical measure. It also leaves the obvious out of saying that the Alberta tar sands are going to be developed one way or the other even if the pipeline isn't built, so it isn't the pipeline that is causing the increased emissions.
I repeat what I have said for the last three years: there is not a chance in hell that he's going to reject the Keystone XL pipeline. The best that can be hoped for is that he approves it with some additional safeguards for environmental safety.
