Atlas Shrugged Response
|February 19, 2010

(Response challenging my views being opposite the lessons of Atlas Shrugged) I don't see it that way. I am a pretty pure capitalist. I support Milton Friedman's ideas about school vouchers to maximize privatized education. I never supported Obama's plan to control CEO pay. In my MBA classes I was one of the few students […]
Education – Capitalist Style

|Posted by Matthew Anselmo under Capitalism, Education, Money
Written in response to a challenge for privatized education and protection: Public schools would be replaced by private institutions driven by profit. In order to meet the demands of capitalism, the only admitted students would be those who can pay. Obviously the quality of education would be directly tied to the amount one could pay, […]

Rescuing Peruvian Squirrels
Dear Mr. Hoffman,
What I appreciate most from your photos is the love and warmth with which you have taken them - it shows! While I am a Peruvian citizen and live down here, I did get to spend some years of my childhood in beautiful Canada and always took a liking to squirrels.
Now, so many years later, I participate actively in trying to save our squirrels as they are targeted by poachers endeavouring to take them out of the country, believe it or not, to the Orient and to Europe... we have our greys in northern coast of Peru, all desert and dry; the small red-brown Amazon types and the big bright red Amazons, both are endangered species.
Here are some photos that I hope you will enjoy!
Baby Grey and her two siblings were rescued from a poacher who kept them with a rope around their midsection - they were given to me when they were tiny babies; they are teens now. The terrible thing with rescuing squirrels here is that there is no active programme to rehabilitate and take them back to their natural habitat - it is too far from Lima and they are not endemic to this part of the country. If we let them loose here, they will have nothing to eat and people are quite mean. Her name is Daphnie.
Leonardo: this is very special as Leonardo also came as a baby, quite ill and he is a mutation from the Grey, he is beige, medium size and BLUE eyes, very sweet and tame. These squirrels must have been taken from the Equatorian-Peruvian border - no such squirrels in the rest of the country. He now has a bride Mariuska
Rojo behind bars: he is still young and growing, Rojo (Red) is the big Amazonia squirrel - he came without much of his fur and quite scared. We are working on getting him well physically and emotionally - he is eating better and bright orange new fur is growing on his back and his gorgeous tail. No friend for him yet.
I don't have at hand the small red-brown Amazonia squirrels but I promise I will send you some as soon as I find the disk.
I hope this has not be troublesome to receive but I truly believe you will understand the plight of these beautiful creatures and the harm that is being done to their species.

(CNSNews.com) – Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, after joining fellow governors in a meeting with President Barack Obama at the White House Tuesday, said he is only focused on running his own state now.
A reporter asked, "In the shadow of the White House here, 2016, is that in your sights?"
Walker waived off the question.
"I ran too hard to be governor two times in the last two years. I'll stay focused on being governor," Walker told reporters after the White House meeting. He was referring to winning a union-funded recall election over the summer less than two years after he was first elected in the blue state in 2010.
The recall was prompted after Walker's spending control measures that reduced some of the state's generous pay and benefits package for Wisconsin state employees.
Walker is a member of the executive committee of the National Governors Association, which met with Obama and Vice President Joe Biden about states' concerns over the fiscal cliff, in which tax increases and budget increases are set to take effect on Jan. 1.
A reporter asked Walker if he had concerns about being a leader of the conservative movement and meeting with the president.
"The bottom line, and actually I think this would be a good lesson for everybody in Washington, what you see here at this meeting, a lot of time I think there is a gotcha mentality of what did one side say or what did the other side say," Walker said.
"You have a collection of governors, both Republican and Democrat representing all 50 governors in this country, that didn't get off on the fringes, didn't get off on our pet projects," Walker continued.
"Instead we said we hope there's going to be something that happens here. In the end we hope it's something positive for our states both in our finances and also for our states' economies. We felt, collectively the people we represent, fellow governors, unites us not divides us," he said.

Absent Fiscal Restraint, History Will Be Unkind To Obama
President Obama took office four years ago talking not just about short-term stimulus, but also about the need to face up to the challenge of the long-term U.S. fiscal deficit. As he put it in a January 15, 2009 interview with the Washington Post, the then President-elect said he wanted to make "sure some of the hard decisions are made under my watch, not someone else's."
The past four years were not exactly a new era of fiscal responsibility. Spending surged, the Medicare drug benefit was made more generous, and a new health insurance entitlement was added with funding that is likely to prove illusory (steep payment cuts to hospitals and other medical providers, along with tax hikes that are supposed to hit on the next President's watch; neither measure seems likely to happen). Deficits and the national debt skyrocketed.
To be sure, fiscal support for a weak economy made sense early on. But many of the particulars of the Obama spending binge were wasteful, and it would have been better in the first place to mate a near-term stimulus to a credible program to tackle the fiscal deficit over time. This means moving forward with changes to Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security, the entitlement programs that drive the long-term U.S. deficit. Instead, Mr. Obama dismissed the suggestions of his own fiscal commission.
The second term is a chance to begin anew. In the summer 2011 deficit talks with Speaker Boehner, President Obama was thought to be amenable to changes in the indexation of Social Security benefits that would slow spending growth in a progressive fashion, increases in deductibles and co-pays for Medicare beneficiaries with high lifetime earnings, and a gradual increase in the Medicare eligibility age. The President would naturally look to combine these measures with additional revenues. Such a package would be a start to what is needed to head off the inexorable rise in the U.S. debt set to start in five years.
The problem for President Obama is that the combination of his re-election decision to demagogue against changes to Social Security and Medicare, and his fiscal cliff strategy focused on tax revenues now makes it politically difficult for Mr. Obama to support adjustments to entitlements. This is the case even though he well understands that entitlement reform is needed even with further tax hikes or cuts to spending on defense or other areas.
The first challenge for President Obama, then, is to convince his own supporters of the need to make the hard choices he once promised. For this, Mr. Obama must make the progressive case for fiscal adjustment: without changes to Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid, the government will not have the free resources to devote to issues such as training, education, affordable housing, energy, the environment, and so on. Instead, the federal government will be devoted to transfer payments with a touch of spending on security and other priorities. The progressive case for entitlement reform is especially strong when the changes would have those with high lifetime earnings face some combination of higher taxes and/or lower benefits while shield those who most depend on the safety net from the burden of the fiscal adjustment.
The second challenge for Obama is to make the case for the inevitable fiscal adjustment to start now rather than waiting a decade or more. His supporters, for example, would prefer to come up with another $1.4 trillion in new revenue and spending cuts over the next ten years but to leave entitlements out of the mix. This amount would stabilize the national debt as a share of GDP for ten years rather than just five, but not head off the debt wave after that. Choices must be made on entitlements to address the structural problem.
The case for moving forward now on entitlement reform rests fundamentally on the notion of generational fairness. Adjustments to taxes and/or spending must be made eventually. Waiting to start reform means that some generations do not share in the burden. There is a broad consensus that people close to retirement will be shielded; putting off reform thus excuses even more generations from the combination of higher taxes and/or lower benefits than now promised.
Social Security reform provides a useful example. Waiting to reform the program until benefits cannot be paid in full would mean that workers some 40 years from now will either pay higher taxes to keep their current benefits or pay the same taxes but receive lower benefits. Either way, the net burden of the adjustment is the same for that future generation. But waiting means that the generations between now and when the Social Security trust fund is exhausted will not share in this burden. Setting in motion a gradual but credible fiscal adjustment is thus fundamentally a matter of generational fairness.
President Obama so far has focused on everything that can be accomplished without the entitlement reforms needed to stabilize the fiscal situation over time. A cynic might think that this is a strategy aimed at the 2014 elections. It remains to be seen whether the President can muster the political courage to focus instead on the long-term needs of the U.S. economy. If not, history books likely will look unkindly on his administration's fiscal legacy.

Feds File First Criminal Charges Related to BP Gulf Spill
The charges against former BP engineer Kurt Mix are expected to be the first step in an ongoing investigation that could reach into the executive suite.
Two years after oil from a BP well began gushing into the Gulf of Mexico, the U.S. Department of Justice has filed criminal charges alleging that a former BP employee destroyed critical evidence in the early days of the unfolding disaster.
The charges are the first to be filed in what the Obama administration has called the worst environmental disaster in American history, and they are significant because they target an individual employee for his actions.
According to an affidavit and complaint filed today in a Louisiana court, Kurt Mix, a former drilling and completions engineer, deleted email and text messages he had sent to senior BP managers estimating that the amount of oil spewing into the Gulf was many times greater than the amount stated publicly. Mix was specifically instructed by attorneys contracted by BP to retain his records before he deleted them, the affidavit states.
In a statement released to reporters, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder indicated that more charges are likely, describing the indictment as "initial charges" in an ongoing investigation, and saying that the Department of Justice "will hold accountable those who violated the law."
More than 200 million gallons of crude oil flowed into the Gulf of Mexico after a blowout caused the explosion of the Deepwater Horizon oil rig and the death of 11 workers on April 20, 2010. The spill continued, unabated, for nearly three months. Analysts have long expected criminal charges against BP or its employees.
A spokeswoman for the agency declined to say when more charges might be expected, or to explain why the case against Mix was the first to be made public.
Mix could not be reached for comment, and we were unable to leave him a message because his voicemail was full.
BP issued a statement saying that the company was cooperating with federal investigators and that "BP had clear policies requiring preservation of evidence in this case and has undertaken substantial and ongoing efforts to preserve evidence."
According to an FBI affidavit submitted to the court along with the indictment, Mix, who worked for BP until January 2012, was directly involved in BP's efforts to understand how much oil was flowing out of the broken Macondo well. On April 21, 2010, Mix estimated that between 68,000 and 138,000 barrels of oil were leaking each day — far more than the 5,000 barrels that were estimated publicly at the time.
On April 22, Mix received the first of six legal notices instructing him to retain his electronic records.
Yet, according to the affidavit, in early October, Mix allegedly deleted a string of more than 200 text messages on his iPhone that he had sent to a supervisor. The deleted texts, which the Department of Justice said were recovered forensically, included sensitive — and pessimistic — internal BP information sent while the company was attempting what it called a "Top Kill" effort to stop the gushing oil on May 26, 2010.
Mix wrote that the effort — which he was directly involved in — was unlikely to succeed. "Too much flowrate — over 15,000 and too large an orifice. Pumped over 12,800 bbl of mud today plus 5 separate bridging pills. Tired. Going home and getting ready for round three tomorrow."
At the time, BP said publicly that the measure had a 70 percent chance of success.
Mix, 50, was arrested in Katy, Texas today. If convicted, he faces a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000 on each of the two counts he is charged with.

In other words, BP has offered up a sacrificial lamb to protect its profits.
It's going to be interesting to see BP convince the court that they don't archive every e-mail, just in case they need it (to have an employee fired or to win a patent dispute) and Mix would be wholly responsible for preserving the evidence.
Text messages, maybe. But even where it's possible, why would Mix, basically a whistle-blower, destroy the evidence of his being right to protect a company he warned, when he "was specifically instructed by attorneys contracted by BP," which would have included mention that it's always a much bigger crime to destroy evidence once investigations have begun?
I just keep thinking about that interview on CNN's Anderson Cooper 360 with that one deepwater survivor and what he said about working on the rig
"You could call time out for safety,they wouldn't fire you for it but they would find another way to fire you for it"
- Daniel Baron deepwater survivor
This was stated in front of four other survivors and all agreed.
This is why we need serious whistleblower protection.
I know first hand how bad it is out there for whistleblowers because i am one.
I have been posting my case on the U.S department of labor's youtube video's in an attemp to expose how pathetic OSHA 11(c) is at protecting whistleblowers.
Our case involved Sunoco refineries were our employer risked a disaster.There was even a DOL offical who provided me inside information for they knew they were lying to there investigators.
I used that information on 14 diffrent timelined dates untill they cought onto what i was doing but it was too late they hung themselves with even faxes to me on six of those dates with there names and dates on the cover sheets.This is also a federal crime lying to federal investigators but were just the little guy so it's o.k.There is way too much to our case to post here but this type of accident will obviousley happen again.
Workers are the front line of defense in preventing these disasters so why is DOL attacking us?
So, when is the DOJ going to file charges against the banks, mortgage brokers, mortgage originators, rating agencies, et.al. who participated in the greatest mortgage fraud in the last century?
@ John: absolutely. If this was for anything more than show, they would be arresting many others, much higher up the corporation's food chain. The lies to federal agencies, trying to hinder outside investigation by U.S. environmental agencies…That came from the high echelon. Until they are arrested, I am convinced that this is nothing more than a show to say "Look, we're doing something about it…"
I have read and rre read several articles in various global newspapers and online web sites both Oil and Gas related and not related and i still can not work out what this chap had to do with the original blow out ,
I understand he was involved in the well recovery programme but i am unaware charges were being brought against people or companies working to actualy control / stop the flow and recover the well.
Does this now mean that the all the people involved directly in the well kill programme are now going to have charges brought against them and what would these charges consist of ?
I am not from the US and to tell the truth given these latest events i am quite glad.
Now I understand why fox went on the attack on the EPA today, demonizing an agency who only wants to protect our water and air.
When I read the DoJ comments about prosecuting anyone who broke the law - it hit me. We have a legal system that considers disasters like this an acceptable risk.
Look, I have no doubt that BP - as an organization - broke the law and should be prosecuted for it. But I also have a feeling that they didn't break the law nearly so badly as we think they they broke the law.
Why? Because we have a legal system that views gigantic environmental disasters as an acceptable risk for feeding our addiction to black, sticky sources of energy.
BP is an awful company. All fossil fuel companies are awful. They are in the business of destruction for profit. I'm not saying they aren't.
But this is the system we all asked for. We demand more sources of fossil fuel energy and so a legal system has been created such that so long as a company can show it has tried its best to prevent accidents then they are held harmless when accidents happen.
The question we need to ask ourselves is: do we really want to risk more of these accidents? I don't. So maybe instead of demanding the heads of BP we should demand laws that just stop deep water drilling all together. How about that?
Eat The Babies! - some comics about fossil fuels
I have found the news less exciting as it stated. I will touch on two topics: one is corporate social responsibility (CSR) and the other is whistle blowing.
BP has been painted as a cooperative citizen in the article and is far from the image I have. BP should be held accountable because BP is culpable in causing environmental harm and violating safety standards. Jennifer Moore has argued for corporate culpability by using corporate character theory. BP has a history of causing environmental harm and human life loss. These disasters were not anomalies but the result of BP's profit maximisation. Sadly the unexciting consequence is BP was fined.
Will the financial punishments or the criminal charges give us confidence in prevention? I doubt. The hope comes from BP changing the corporate culture and seriously undertaking of CSR.
To manage with a strong sense of CSR, BP must first understand Freeman's stakeholder management and stop ignoring other stakeholders in its profit maximising strategy. The obvious stakeholders include its employees, the communities, and the government who sets environment laws and so on. Many critics have argued the long term benefit business will reap by aiming for a sustainable and well balanced stakeholders' network. Managing for stakeholders fits well in the Utilitarian view as it brings the best consequences for all concerned in a long term effect. However Freeman (1984) defines stakeholders as "any group or individual who can affect or are affected by the achievement of a corporation's performance". He failed to include the environment and our future generations in his scope of stakeholders.
I'd argue that the environment and future generations must be considered as stakeholders and is supported by Utilitarianism. By causing environmental harm and loss of human life, BP has made huge financial payout; its shareholders faced financial loss due to stock value decreased; the employees are dissatisfied, the communities suffered; the government is unpleased with the environment laws and safety standards violated; the future generations is worse off by inheriting less available resourced .This unhappiness could be eliminated or minimised if BP had managed with prudence concerning the environment and the future generation's interest. The best can be produced for all concerned. Velasquez argued in his ecological ethics that we respect and protect the intrinsic values in life forms in the ecological system.
The very basic right of human rights is to live. Since 1998, more than 30 people employed directly or indirectly by BP have died in industrial accidents. No individuals were charged until now; and the financial punishments failed to deter "corporate killings". If BP continues to neglect human rights, the payout is just another operation cost to BP, and it will simply find other individuals to replace the sentenced ones.
BP needs to understand the rights it has enjoyed in using the resources for its business actives impose duties it must fulfil as per the Moral Rights theory. Without fulfilling its duties, BP shall not be entitled to enjoy its rights.
BP management play a key role in fulfilling CSR. They should reflect stakeholders' interests in decisions and manage beyond the narrow sense of stakeholders. However more discussions are needed regarding how to govern corporations, and who is best suited for the governor's role, e.g. an independent body, the government (bearing in mind powerful corporations influence government's decision through lobbying).
As to Kurt Mix, he had the perfect opportunity to blow the whistle. He was a voluntary BP employee, he had the information from his direct work involvement in effort to stop the oil spill by BP, and the information was withheld by BP, thus the government and the public were not informed of the truth. If he had blown the whistle, his behaviour is morally justified according to Davis' complicity theory. He would not face the criminal charge. Why he did not do so? I do not have sufficient information to comment on his reasoning; what would happen to Mix if he did blow the whistle? Even in countries where there is legal protection for morally required whistle blowers, it does not eliminate later difficulties faced by him in future employment etc. How do we better support whistle blowers? This grants a new discussion.
"it does not eliminate later difficulties faced by him in future employment etc"
Can we reflect back to the people that tried to blow the whisltle on 3 mile island ?
Risk to life or limb is a reality , even the goverment of the USA openly oppressors people and groups that exersise your fundamentle right to free speach
Get real Bonnie Y this is not some text book exersise filled with engaging buzz words it is the real down and dirty world of uncontrolled capitalism
Hi Stephen and others,
My response is one of the assignments I have done for my study. So it looks quite lengthy. I appreciate thaat there might be gaps between what we learn and what is in pratice, but if we do not learn, especially try to educate the future ones, the gaps can never be filled. Thank you for your reply.
Commenting on this story is closed.
The BP oil disaster in the Gulf has had untold health, economic and environmental effects.

As a Powershell newbie, i wanted to know if i can create a powershell app
that will search my list of SQL Server Instances (from a sql table) query
each one for the list of administrators of that server and then put that data
into a SQL table.
I finally found this function from Ron Dameron
(http://www.simple-talk.com/content/a...icle=576#forum) which
lists administrators of a server.
Then, i found RIchard Siddaway's example of how to use powershell to push
into a table.
http://richardsiddaway.spaces.live.c...entry?0aaed4f8 Now, it seems I'm not too far from solution!
Can anyone put this together for me to put the output of the function run
against a list of servers into another SQL Table?
If I had a solution to this, it will be my template for gathering all kinds
of useful info!
Thanks in advance!

To date, the second-term senator has received endorsements from four sitting U.S. representatives from California, more than two-dozen state officials and nearly 40 local elected reps, including the mayors of Danville, Walnut Creek, Antioch, Clayton, El Cerrito, Dublin, Pittsburg and Martinez.
The 61-year-old seeks to fill the 11th Congressional District seat of longtime U.S. Rep. George Miller (D-Martinez), who announced Jan. 13 that he would retire after his current term -- his 20th in Congress.
DeSaulnier represents Pleasanton in the California State Senate, but the congressional district for which he is running only extends as far south as Danville. Pleasanton is part of the 15th District, represented by Congressman Eric Swalwell (D-Dublin).
No other Democrats have announced their candidacy for Miller's seat. Retired Immigration Judge Tue Q. Phan, a Danville resident, is the lone Republican to enter the race thus far.
DeSaulnier tried to earn a spot in Congress in 2009, running in the old 10th District -- prior to redistricting -- after former U.S. Rep. Ellen Tauscher resigned to join the U.S. State Department. He lost in the special primary election to fellow Democrat John Garamendi, who eventually won the seat.

There's also an issue if any of this is done in an *SI callback since we currently rely on PHP to collect that information globally after rendering the rest of the page has happened (i.e.
<head> is built based on information in
<body>). This will mean that if there's a controller for those callbacks in core (i.e. #1830854: [meta] The ESI pipeline battle plan) it'll need to be able to present that information in a format that's accessible to JavaScript to dynamically add those tags etc.
For assets, at DrupalCon Munich and BADCamp we discussed rendering them as a json object with the block HTML, and then have a script loader in the parent that finds these, compares against global assests already in the page (which is in Drupal.settings now anyway), and loads them asynchronously. This bit doesn't need to be done in core, as long as aggregation itself is pluggable and the information is provided cleanly.
Some of this is discussed in #1014086: Race conditions, stampedes and cold cache performance issues with css/js aggregation however that's also a straight performance issue (i/o on shared filesystems, aynchronous asset generation) that's not strictly related to ESI.
Arbitrarily breaking caching of HTML by adding current user-specific markup
Modules that hook into rendering then do arbitrary things based on the global user mean that the HTML can only be cached per user. However the pipeline for rendering that HTML doesn't know it's per-user usually. #914382: Contextual links incompatible with render cache is a current example that's also broken in Drupal 7 quite badly.
When inline editing went in, the final patch made it so that user/role-specific information happens in JavaScript post-processing, leaving the main HTML content cacheable the same way it was before.
#1874664: Introduce toolbar level "Edit" mode that shows all contextual links has further exacerbated the original bug.
- #1991684: Node history markers (comment & node "new" indicator, "x new comments" links) forces render caching to be per user
Creating markup that's specific to the current request
All links generated by l() attempt to determine whether the link is "active" based on the current request which means that any markup containing rendered links can't be cached on anything but a per-page basis #1979468: ".active" from linkGenerator(), l() and theme_links() forces an upper limit of per-page caching for all content containing links.
Not actually trying to cache rendered output in core
EntityNG, the new router system, menu links as entities and various other things have slowed down entity rendering and menu block generation. Two issues are open to improve caching of these. There isn't a dependency for these on the above issues (which are mostly enforcing best practices that core should already be following).

And #1805054: Cache localized, access filtered, URL resolved, and rendered menu trees is still open, but is critical on its own, so will definitely still get resolved. The only other thing that's still open is #1014086: Race conditions, stampedes and cold cache performance issues with css/js aggregation, which is major on its own, and doesn't require API changes, and can therefore happen in a 8.x.0 release.

Ear - blocked at high altitudesHigh altitudes and blocked ears; Flying and blocked ears; Eustachian tube dysfunction -high altitude
The air pressure outside of your body changes as altitude changes. This creates a difference in pressure on the two sides of the eardrum. The result is a feeling of pressure and blockage in the ears.
Yawning or swallowing usually opens the Eustachian tube, which connects the middle ear to the nose. These movements allow the pressure to equalize in the ears. Performing them can unclog blocked ears when you are going up or coming down from high altitudes. Chewing gum the entire time you are changing altitudes helps by causing you to swallow frequently. This may prevent you from getting blocked ears in the first place.
People who always have blocked ears when flying may consider taking a decongestant about an hour before the flight leaves.
If your ears are blocked, try breathing in, then gently breathing out while holding your nostrils and mouth closed. If you do this too forcefully, you can cause ear infections by forcing bacteria into your ear canals. A perforation (hole) in your eardrum can result if you blow too hard. See: Barotrauma

The Killeen City Council last week endorsed two changes to the city's operating procedures that should enhance the city's efficiency and another change that will benefit voters.
All three are to be commended, but with some reservations.
Perhaps the biggest change is the removal of a requirement that restaurants opening in Killeen have to be approved for a specific RC-1 zoning designation before they can sell alcohol. Under the newly approved guidelines, any restaurant that goes in under the city's B-3 zoning classification will be automatically approved for alcohol sales.
Removing the extra step puts Killeen in line with other area cities — chiefly Harker Heights — and eliminates what the city's planning director sees as a potential sticking point with developers. Indeed, it's not unreasonable that having to make a second permit request could cause some prospective businesses to look elsewhere to set up shop.
Switching to a one-step permit process will not only balance the playing field in recruiting dining establishments, but it will speed up the turnaround time on future restaurant construction projects.
There are no doubt some who would say the current RC-1 permit mandate has served the city well, so why change it? But the city's planning director noted that the city has approved 19 of the 20 RC-1 permit requests received over the past few years. The other request was withdrawn. So, if approval is so automatic, why have the extra step in the first place?
The second change the council endorsed last week was to give the planning and zoning commission authority to approve property plats — currently something that also requires council approval.
The new process is in accordance with state law, which grants a planning commission oversight over platting unless the city ordinance states otherwise. It also stipulates that a plat that meets a city's minimum established standards must be granted approval.
Removing the council from the platting equation will both streamline the development process and shorten council meeting agendas.
Of course, the change to one-step approval is not without its critics. One council member said the current system gives the council a chance "to see what's going on" and keeps council members engaged. Another councilman said the redundancy is beneficial for fact-checking.
In surveying other local communities, the platting process is anything but uniform. In Harker Heights, the council always reviews the plat request first, then sends it to the planning commission before seeing it again for final approval. In Copperas Cove, the council only reviews larger requests; the rest are handled by planning and zoning.
Given the volume of requests in Killeen, handing the platting duties over to P&Z may be the best route to take. Still, moving forward, it would be both informative and instructive if the planning commission can give the council regular updates on plat approvals.
In the final change authorized by the council last week, members agreed to add a third early-voting site for the city's May municipal election.
The addition of a polling site at Lions Club Park is a much-needed accommodation for residents in the southern portion of Killeen. The city's two current early-voting sites at Killeen City Hall and the Killeen Community Center are just a few miles apart, and neither is south of Veterans Memorial Boulevard.
But having three sites is only temporary. After this election, the city will no longer offer early voting at City Hall, with officials citing voter turnout there.
Indeed, it would be hard to argue the need for three polling sites, since the record for early voting in Killeen is only 2,086, recorded in 2012. That's just over 200 votes a day — easily accommodated by two locations.
Still, if unusually heavy turnout forced officials to consider keeping a third location in play, it would be a pleasant problem to have.
Streamlining any process is generally a worthwhile goal, but it's important to be mindful that it can sometimes come at a cost.

Advisor Name Title Quesada-Pineda, Henry Jose Committee Chair Buehlmann, Urs K. Committee Member Kline, D. Earl Committee Member Keywords
- Furniture engineering process
- Lean engineering
- Engineering lead time
- Value stream mapping
Date of Defense 2011-03-21 Availability restricted AbstractEfficient engineering processes are critically important for furniture manufacturers. Engineering impacts the production cost, design quality, product lead time, and customer satisfaction. This research presents a systematic approach to analyze a furniture engineering process through a case study. The research was conducted through a case study in a furniture plant located in China, producing American style furniture products. The first stage was to investigate the company's current engineering process, identify non value-added activities, and analyze the engineering performance based on selected Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) such as lead time, document error rate, and engineering throughput. A survey questionnaire was sent out to the engineering group to determine the current engineering efficiency.
Results show that "product complexity" and "engineer competency" are the two most influential factors that impact engineering lead time and quality. In the second stage, value stream mapping was used to analyze an upholstery furniture engineering process. The approach encompasses an analysis of the current state of the engineering process and the proposal of a lean future state value stream map (VSM).
Results from the current state VSM show, that the value-added ratio of the current engineering process is only 26%. Several engineering steps present deficiency such as the processes of creating drawings, compile mass production documents, check and sign-off engineering documents, create CNC programs, and generate packaging files. Based on current state VSM analysis, the researcher focused on transforming these processes to eliminate waste and to propose the best practices for the future state VSM.
From this research, it shows that current processes include a large amount of non-value adding activities such as waiting, extra processing, rework, excess motion, transportation, underutilized people, and inefficient information. These non-value adding activities are interfering with engineers' ability to prepare engineering documents for downstream jobs and affecting the overall manufacturing process. The VSM is effective to provide the visual control over the engineering process for implementing lean transformations.

PLEASE NOTE: These shoes are forfeited pre-orders. Their price has been reduced from the original full retail value. All sales are are final. These items are not returnable.
Upper: Natural Horween Chromexcel
Outsole: Commando Sole
Last: Classic American "Barrie" Last
The Innsbruck line is a cornerstone of our Alden collection. Named after the world-famous Austrian mountaineering destination, these shoes are designed stand up to any terrain – the rougher the better. Each Innsbruck Alden features an upper made of tried and true Horween Chromexcel, heavy-duty Commando Sole, antique pre-stitch reverse welt and shiny brass eyelets.
The Alt Wien, meaning "Old Vienna," is one of our favorite shoe designs. A stout, elegant shoe composed of a medallion pattern at the toe and perforations decorating the heel and lacing, it works wonderfully well in both casual and formal settings. This a traditional style that has become a bit unusual these days, which makes us love it even more. It's a great addition to just about anyone's footwear collection.
The Barrie last runs approximately one half size big. Order one half size smaller than your typical dress shoe size. For instance, if you typically wear a size 10D, you should order a 9.5D.
The Alden Shoe Company was founded in 1884 by Charles H. Alden in Middleborough, Massachusetts, and it remains in that same town to this day. Since its inception, the Alden Shoe Company has designed and manufactured classic gentleman's footwear that represents America's tradition of custom shoe-making at its finest. They have the well-earned reputation of being the best shoe manufacturer in the United States and one of the top shoemakers in the world.
In a consumer world that too often prizes promotion over product, you might think genuine craftsmanship and honest value have been lost forever. Alden stands as adamant proof of the contrary. We are honored to continue our partnership with these paragons of American manufacturing.
Alden shoes are Goodyear welted and handmade by union craftsmen. When you've worn out the sole, which will take a very long time, you can return them to Alden for a complete resoling and refurbishing. With proper care, by a competent cobbler or the factory itself, your Aldens will last you well over a decade.
Our apologies, we cannot ship Alden shoes outside the United States and Canada.

Although a bottle of bogus Viagra might prove to be a big disappointment, a counterfeit bottle of a heart medication such as Lipitor could be deadly. On the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy's list of drugs most susceptible to adulteration and/or counterfeiting, Viagra is No. 23 and Lipitor is No. 10. In 2003 more than 200,000 bottles of phony Lipitor were found on the shelves of major drugstore chains.
As is so often the case, it will soon be IT, in the form of pedigree systems, that will help solve the problem.
A pedigree system tracks all the information about a product as it moves through the supply chain from the manufacturer all the way to the point of sale. This could be done manually, but I wouldn't want to be the one in charge of that.
Rather, the electronic version of a pedigree system uses RFID. I spoke with Peter Regen, vice president of global visible commerce at Unisys, about his company's ePedigree pilot project and how supply chain technology, especially RFID, can be used to alleviate counterfeiting.
Here's how the pedigree system works, according to Regen: A tag commissioned with a unique EPC (Electronic Product Code) is recorded at the point of manufacture. Its unique ID is sent to a hosted solution using, in this example, SupplyScape pedigree software. The SupplyScape system captures the original data and notifies the next stop to expect these cases with these IDs.
As the pallet, case, or item moves along the supply chain, it eventually lands at the wholesaler, where it's unloaded at the dock. Once again the RFID tag is read, as it will be when it's shipped out again. Finally, if there's a reader at the retailer, the tag is read one final time for authenticity. With this much monitoring, a case is much less likely to "fall off the back of the truck" (as we used to say in Brooklyn) or be replaced by a counterfeit.
The pharmaceutical industry will be the first to use an electronic pedigree system. The Food and Drug Administration has already sent out its guidelines. Pharmaceuticals, however, is not the only industry that can benefit.
Consumers and manufacturers are also being ripped off in the luxury goods industry by knockoffs of products such as Gucci bags and consumer electronics. Even more seriously, counterfeit aircraft parts were blamed for the crash of an airplane in 1989. And naturally any products that involve intellectual property -- such as software, CDs, and DVDs -- are also targets.
One of the big unanswered questions is who will host these systems. Regen suggests that an industry association or a nonprofit might take up the task -- or it might even be Uncle Sam, as in the case of pharmaceuticals.
Of course, these same tags will also be used for more ordinary supply-chain track and trace. This means IT will need to plug pedigree systems into other components of the overall infrastructure, including warehouse management systems, demand planning, forecasting, order management, and inventory management, to name a few.
The downside? Although everyone talks a good story about lowering IT costs, the truth is that increasing demands on business and IT won't allow that to happen.
These new technologies cannot be ignored. Their benefits are real, but they will require additional expenditures.

Activity-Based Costing is presented in accounting text books as a costing system that can be used to make valuable managerial decisions. Accounting journals regularly report the successful implementations and benefits of activity-based costing systems for particular businesses. Little experimental or empirical evidence exists, however, that has demonstrated the benefits of activity-based costing under controlled conditions. Similarly, although case studies report conditions that may or may not favor activity-based costing decision making, controlled studies that measure the actual influence of those conditions on the usefulness of activity-based costing information are few. This study looked at the decision usefulness of activity-based costing information under controlled, laboratory settings. An interactive computer simulation tested the ability of 48 accounting majors to optimize profits with and without activity-based costing information and tested to see if presentation format or decision framing would influence their outcomes. The research showed that the activity-based costing information resulted in significantly better profitability decisions and required no additional time. Presentation in graphic (bar charts) or numeric (tabular reports) format did not influence profitability decisions but the graphs took longer for analysis and decision making. Decision framing influences were shown to beneficially affect profitability decisions but did not require additional time.

I have. Do you want me to mail them to you. Note that I have
compiled it with a different CONFIG file than the default one.
If you send me your CONFIG file, I can compile it for you
(with gcc, of course).
AFAIK, it works without any problems.

An educated vote is one nuanced by the indoctrination we received in the public schools.
Yes, this is getting old but what are our choices? We're told as flawed as the process is it's better than not voting. Not voting is condemned as grossly irresponsible. Not voting is seen as surrendering society to fascists or communists or terrorists or the mega corporations. Not voting means surrendering the country to the likes of Mitt Romney or Barack Obama or one of Bill Clinton's women.
If enough of us stay away from the polls, not voting could even result in anarchism. Unthinkable! And that's true, we don't think about it, so we vote instead.
In honor of our predilection to let others steer us through life, I offer a piece I wrote in 2002 on the nature of the animal people create through suffrage. Remember, without suffrage, we suffer even more than we do now.
At least that's what our overlords have always told us.
I, Politician (2002)
George Ford Smith
You all know me well, yet few of you can explain who I am. At last count there were 135 of me vying to run California after the expected departure of Governor Davis. If you believe I can save you, then you must believe your world is in desperate need of propaganda, force, and plunder, for those are my specialties.
I, Politician, speak to you without my confusing labels of Democrat or Republican, Conservative or Liberal. Neither are my gender or race important, though you would be wise to check out my friends. I seek to rule for the glory and the power.
There are those who seek power over nature and others who seek power over man. Need I mention my preference? There's no mystery to my method; I simply feed your emotions of fear, greed, and envy. I am George W. Bush promising you protection from government enemies; I am Hillary Clinton promising to pay all your medical bills; I am a DOJ prosecutor going after Martha Stewart or Bill Gates because they make loads of money. I can promise these things and more, while making you believe it will cost you nothing.
The law once limited what I could do to help you. But since my declared motive is public service, not private profit, and since you've never learned the lesson of the market's "invisible hand," [1] you've agreed to let me expand the law to be more accommodating.
Do you love the American principle of equality under the law? I am especially fond of it. I have altered it from its original meaning – which is, that no one is privileged -- to a more progressive interpretation: No one is privileged who does not play the lobbying game. The revised meaning is infinitely more useful for my purposes.
No matter what the issue is, I, Politician always discuss it in terms of how government should spend and regulate, not whether it should be doing anything at all. I address problems by perpetuating them in bureaucracies and doling out plums to political supporters.
For me to help you as much as you would like, and bring justice to far-away lands, it is necessary for I, Politician, to claim ownership of your wealth. This I do primarily in two ways: by seizing your income before you even get it and by establishing a system of legal counterfeiting.
Long ago, the paper you call money were once receipts redeemable in gold. The gold standard kept the banks honest, which is to say, it made banks uncomfortable when they loaned out pseudo-receipts not backed by gold. It caused grave problems when depositors demanded their gold and the banks didn't have enough to go around. So I, Politician, when I was FDR, confiscated the people's gold and made it illegal to use as money. I seized the gold held in Federal Reserve banks and transferred it to the U.S. Treasury, giving in exchange gold certificates, pieces of paper testifying to the theft. [2]
I declared paper money itself was now money, with government as the monopoly supplier. As one economist observed, "In 1933, the United States government removed the gold restraint on its inflationary potential by shifting to fiat money." [3] Thus, I can create fiat dollars whenever I need them by cranking up the printing presses. When this causes prices to rise and the dollar to sink, I blame it on the greed of business.
I hasten to add that I, Politician, can only do this on a national level; I have forbidden states from printing their own money. They must feed off their flock in direct ways, through user fees and other taxes.
The only threat I have comes from you. Someday you might fight back, as Vernice Kuglin has done against the IRS. But notice the solitude of her crusade. A woman stands up to the American Gestapo as our founders once did to the king. Is she hailed as a defender of American freedom? No. The Fox TV mouths tell us she is "one lonely soldier who found a sympathetic jury" but has not started a trend. [4] Or they openly attacked her with the flag, as my buddies Hannity and Colmes did. [5] I, Politician, have friends in all the right places.
I, Politician, run a huge wealth-transfer and war-making operation. I achieve legitimacy through controlled elections and the systematic corruption of culture. Take away my revenue and my power goes with it, as well as my incentive to mess in politics. But who wants to see people keeping their wealth and conducting their lives without state regulation? Certainly not I, Politician.

Udaipur, particularly known as the jewel of Mewar was founded by Maharaja Jai Singh in 16th century. The city endorses three major lakes namely Pichhola, Fatehsagar and Udaisagar. The three lakes are the magical splendors of the romantic city of Udaipur. On Pichhola lake, there stands the Udaipur Jag mandir, a famous palace of royal era. This is why the city is also termed as the city of lakes. The eloquent views and serene environment have made this city more beautiful and many Hollywood and Hindi movies have been shot in the picturesque locations of Udaipur. Situated amidst the Aravali Hills and the azure lakes, Udaipur has a picture perfect backdrop.
Major Captivations in Udaipur
Built by Maharana Jagat Singh II in 1754, the Lake Palace (also known as Jag Niwas) is the major landmark of Udaipur. It is located in the middle of Pichola Jagdish Temple, Udaipur Lake. It is really a wonderful island palace that appears to be emerging out of the gleaming blue water on the lovely Pichola Lake. The combination of the Lake Palace and the Pichola Lake creates the romantic ambience especially at the time of Sunset.
Another major land mark of Udaipur city is the imposing City Palace and is considered as one of the largest royal complexes. The palace complex is situated on peninsula of breathtaking Pichola Lake. The palace complex comprise of 11 elegant palaces within the palace complex. The palace overlooks the exceptional panorama of Pichola Lake. This palace also contains a museum that highlights a rich collection of artifacts.
The amazing Jag Mandir is yet another beautiful island palace on astoundingly beautiful Lake Pichola. This palace was built by Maharaja Karan Singh in the year of 1615 AD. That showcases the colossal statue of elephants and imposing cenotaphs which affix to its beauty.
An 18th century beautiful garden was built as an oasis for the royal ladies to spend their leisure time. A visit to Saheliyon-Ki-Bari brings an opportunity to see beautiful lotus pool, enchanting fountains in the shape of birds, marble pavilions, flowerbeds, and the lush green lawns.
Apart from these attractions, Jagdish Temple, Fateh Sagar, Maharana Pratap Memorial, Rose Garden, Shilp Gram, Monsoon Palace, and Bhartiya Lok Kala Museum are also worth visiting attractions of this romantic city.

At home by Lake Minnetonka
A look at Northstar MLS Wayzata MN real estate statistics shows 22 single family home sales that closed in the latter half of 2006. The average sale price was recorded as $1,610,750, although this number is rather meaningless because the results include a sale at $17,500,000! Most sales occurred in a more down-to-earth price range of 300-400k. The townhome market is small; there were only 11 Wayzata townhomes and condos that closed during the same period. All lakeshore Wayzata homes for sale exceeded 1M in price.

Star Trees Lighting Hiatus
Giving the trees time to recover from stress
Beginning in 2014, Willamette University took a hiatus from the traditional Star Trees lighting to ensure the continuing health of the Star Trees. According to the Office of the President, the trees are healthy but showing signs of stress. The grounds team has expressed concerns about the cumulative effects of light installation and the use of heavy cabling, which may cause damage to the trees during winter storms. The hiatus is intended to give the trees a respite and time to recover.
Instead, please join us for a Holiday Lighting Celebration in Jackson Plaza on December 5, 2015. This year's celebration will begin with a holiday dinner in Goudy Commons and end with a free concert in Smith Auditorium. Free hot chocolate and cookies will also be served.
In addition, the Interfraternity Council, a group of students representing fraternities on campus, will accept donations of coats and clothing during the lighting ceremony to benefit people in need.


text: Christian Smith - Systemwide (Original Mix) [Cocoon Recordings] by Christian Smith Official published on 2012-07-02T16:33:25Z "L is for lover, O is for an offer, V you got to venture, E maybe forever." (Al Jarreau, 1986) OK, we don't know whether Grammy-award-winning Jazz icon Al Jarreau has actually already thought of the twelfth Cocoon Compilation when he wrote his 86' hit. But that the Cocoon Compilation L is all about love, is beyond debate: the love for electronic dance music, for its complexity and its diversity, the love for this global musical language and last not least the enthusiasm for the well-known and the still non-famous protagonists of this tonal romance that faithfully accompanies us through night and day for more than 30 years now. And that's why L begins with a proper love song: for "Equilibrio", the Berlin residents Tale Of Us have teamed up in the studio with their - currently extremely hip - boosters Seth Troxler, Ryan Crosson, Shaun Reeves and Lee Curtiss aka Visionquest. The result is a romantic sonnet for the 21st century, and its dreamlike dabbed piano will be carrying us into some sunrise still - a perfect start for this compilation. On with the Tiefschwarz proteges Rampa & Re.You, whose club hit "Ghost" was essential in last year's Ibiza season. Also "Yeah Yeah Yeah feat. Meggy" bewitches with a unique sense for soulful vocals without baroque-like embellishment, and with its deep organ riff the dry and bass-heavy Trax House gains unimagined emotional intensity. DJ Tim Green from London, well-known for his releases on Four Twenty, Trapez and last not least for his "Lemon"-EP on Cocoon Recordings in 2011, generates in "Curious Smile" club-related but still shy Pop House from playful keyboard improvisations. This is what you - in a better world - would hear on standard-format radio. And also in the further course of the compilation the cornucopia is lavishly emptied: the Italian duo Doomwork, well-known for tracks for 100%%Pure and Tronic, is lustfully petering out in the summery space-time continuum with percussive Dub, gorgeous sound layers and slow-motion vocals; Graham Goodwin aka Sian is pumping out his subsonic rave signal "East Of Eden" to the front and will thus presents true challenges to some club PAs. Keinemusik act Adam Port, who seems not to have any stylistic anxieties, does his gusto for Boogie bass credit also with "Black Noise", while DJ globetrotter and Tronic label boss Christian Smith (currently on everyone's lips with his remixes for Carl Craig and Underworld) will make even bigger floors shake with his tropical, powerful energy. Two extraordinary percussion-driven energy infusions are then celebrated by Mark Reeve ("Planet Green") and DJ Paul Ritch from Paris, whose core statement "music never separated people" can't be emphasized enough, while the Dutch dream team Secret Cinema and Peter Horrevorts serve a surprisingly industrially-characterized Techno. The finale is initiated by the best known Israeli producer besides Guy Gerber, Guy J, whose "Genesis" finds a perfect balance between hypnotic melodies and demanding rhythms, totally in the manner of his works for John Digweed's Bedrock label. The last chord is set by Daniel Stefanik from Leipzig: his more than ten minutes long "Everything Goes Green" elevates the process of waiting for the right moment to an art form and is, with fragmented rhythms, patient enough to intonate grated chocolate instead of exuberant sweetness. There's no better way to capture the magic intensity of a terrific after hour party for ever and ever. An album to fall in love with!

As a photographer, I have to say... I hate these pictures.
why do you hate the pics?
It looks like it is getting a proper photo shoot with studio lights, yet they are showing us shots with ambient light, the lens wide open, and throwing the ol' instagram filter on.
I want to see the shots from the studio camera..
I hate 'em cuz I ain't gettin' a new boat this year. :(
= Teaser Pics...
I figure that is entirely intentional.
Yeah, I know it's on purpose, I still don't like it though.
It's like filming a scene of a new movie with an iPhone to show as a sneak peek.
im waiting on numbers for the mondo..if i can get what i want for mine i might trade up
I heard the numbers should be on the high end of 50k.
i might be able to work with that

Get your Big Brother Feeds!
According to the article in the post previous (TV Guide), there will be 14 Houseguests this season, not 13 as we once thought. Now what we don't yet know is if the 14th HG will be the "Saboteur" or if it will be a genuine HG. My guess is one of the 14 will be the mole, so there will still be 13 playing for the money. What do you think? We are discussing it in the forum. Click here to give us your two cents!

If you are a fan of pumpkin, then I suggest trying out this pumpkin poke cake with Heath Bits topping. You may have seen a similar recipe floating around the food blogs (i.e., Something Swanky), but this one is a bit different because I use a large can of pumpkin, my own recipe for pumpkin pie spice, cool whip frosting, and an entire bag of Heath Bits. The result is a dessert with a texture reminiscent of pumpkin pie but in cake form. (It is extremely moist from the extra pumpkin and sweetened condensed milk). The Heath Bits add a special crunch to the top with just the right amount of chocolate.
- 1 (15.25 oz) box butter yellow cake mix
- 1 (29 oz) can Libby's 100% Pure pumpkin
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ⅛ teaspoon ground cloves
- ---------------
- 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
- ---------------
- 1 (10.6 oz) container Cool Whip vanilla frosting
- 1 (8 oz) bag Heath milk chocolate toffee bits
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9x13 inch cake pan with non stick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, stir together the cake mix, pumpkin, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves until a nice batter forms. Transfer to prepared cake pan.
- Bake for 42-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
- Immediately poke holes all over the top of the cake using the top handle of a wooden spoon. Pour condensed milk evenly over cake. Refrigerate several hours.
- When cake has cooled, spread cool whip frosting evenly over top. Sprinkle with Heath baking bits.
- Store cake in refrigerator.

Hey great to hear from you JD! Funnily enough last night after replying to Mike, I remembered that you had a house move coming. I thought that might be keeping you otherwise occupied.
Good to hear that all the fish moved OK, and that Floyd couldn't even falter the success of the Dietsch Zoo. Hopefully all the humans moved as well as the fish?
Nice to here from you. Mike and I (and I'm sure others) obviously miss your input.
See Mike, I was right...........lurking whilst otherwise occupied!
'Nother thought........do I remember correctly that Joe had some change happening at the Church that was taking up his time?
