Jane Wills was commissioned as a Stephen Leader at the St Stephen Services on Sunday.
Stephen Ministry is the one-to-one lay caring ministry that takes place in congregations that use the Stephen Series system. Stephen Ministry congregations equip and empower lay caregivers-called
Stephen Ministers-to provide high-quality, confidential, Christ-centered care to people who are hurting.
Stephen Ministers are laypeople-Christian men and women-trained to provide one-to-one care to people experiencing a difficult time in life, such as grief, divorce, job loss, chronic or terminal illness, relocation, or separation due to military deployment.
Stephen Ministers come from all walks of life. Their commonality? A passion for bringing Christ's love and care to people during a time of need. Since 1975, more than 600,000 people from more than 12,000 congregations and other organizations have been trained as Stephen Ministers.
Stephen Leaders are the pastors, other church staff, and lay leaders who direct Stephen Ministry in the congregation. They are equipped and inspired to serve in this role at a one-week Leader's Training Course. Stephen Leaders have gifts and skills in areas such as leadership, teaching, and organizing people-along with a heart for caring ministry.

We have our help desk set up for certain people to submit tickets using the portal. Creating tickets is no problem. Admins are notified and one of them takes the ticket. The problem is, the creator gets no notification whatsoever, either that it was assigned, comments added, or closed. The only way they know if anything was done is by logging into the portal again and looking All the boxes are checked for everyone to get notified, but no go. Any ideas?
This topic was created during version 5.3.
The latest version is 7.5.00101.
20 Replies
Dec 15, 2011 at 9:31 UTC
Check the Help Desk settings for the submitter email notifications.
Dec 15, 2011 at 9:37 UTC
Settings > Helpdesk and check the "Submitter" section for the relevant checkboxes.
Dec 15, 2011 at 9:37 UTC
Double check the creator email address. If you are using the AD integration check the email on AD and in the people inventory.
If not, check if the user is entering the right email on portal, since it doesn't make any checks. If the user enters a wrong email address it will just add a new person.
Dec 15, 2011 at 9:43 UTC
As stated in Original post, all boxes are checked. Email is filled in automatically based on AD. They would not be able to log into the portal if they put wrong address down, but I have checked this and it is correct.
Dec 15, 2011 at 10:01 UTC
If the submitter email notifications are checked and you still have nothing, then I'd try a Spiceworks restart before doing further testing.
Dec 15, 2011 at 10:20 UTC
It has been restarted, as has the server it is on, still no go!
Dec 15, 2011 at 10:22 UTC
How many users are experiencing this? Did it work previously?
Dec 15, 2011 at 10:36 UTC
Right now we only have a couple of users set up to submit tickets through the portal as a test. It has never worked since the beginning for anybody submitting through portal, or for that matter, admins do not get emails either when ticket is closed and this is also checked. The only emails sent are the ones when it is opened, and only the admins get that. After that no one gets any notifications. ALL boxes are checked so someone should get something during the life of a ticket.
Dec 15, 2011 at 10:45 UTC
Grasping at straws here, but is it possibly spam filtering? Does this work if tickets are submitted via email?
Dec 15, 2011 at 10:49 UTC

Yes, try to send an email to your users using the address you configured in the email settings and see if they get it.
Dec 15, 2011 at 10:50 UTC
Heh, that's ok, I have been grasping at straws for awhile now. Never had a ticket submitted via email. Never even looked into that ability
Dec 15, 2011 at 10:53 UTC

Yes, try to send an email to your users using the address you configured in the email settings and see if they get it.
If they use bayesian filtering (which I hope) then the filtering is based on the content of each email. Receiving a test email isn't necessarily proof that an HTML based email from Spiceworks would go through.
I would hope that no spam filter would block email from a local domain but I don't know how they all work. :)
Dec 16, 2011 at 3:09 UTC
The email address we use is our standard itsupport email that is used daily for emails, so the address is good and works. Also, SW does send admins an email when a ticket is open. After that nothing is sent out, and non admins (creators, etc.) never get an email.
There is no spam filtering internally.
Dec 16, 2011 at 4:14 UTC
Spiceworks 5.3 is officially live, try upgrading and testing again.
Dec 16, 2011 at 9:24 UTC
I have been beta testing it for awhile, and it is same.
Dec 23, 2011 at 4:00 UTC
during my reading of all the help files and other questions posed in past, I ran across something that seems to have fixed the problem. In one of the documents it said something about setting 'force send confirmation emails' if you do not enable incoming mail (under 'show additional settings). I did not set it up to accept incoming. So I set this to 'On' and everything started working as it should
Edit: gave a Helpful Post to Gerald because of his question about working with email submitted tickets led me to look into that and in process, ran across answer.
Dec 23, 2011 at 7:14 UTC
I'm glad that you got it worked out!
Jan 6, 2012 at 12:38 UTC
Bullfrog's self answer worked for me. I would mark it as a correct answer if I could.

Agree with serfty. No personal (or 2nd hand) experience, but the PDS's I've read specifically exclude refusal of entry to a country.
No personal experience but my casual reading of that part of pds's suggest most TI wont cover this.
Not sure what happens if you are detained for search/questioning on arrival and then subsequently allowed entry but miss your flight....
Just looking at covermores PDS, General Exclusion 5 is
So if you get held up by customs, and although allowed in you miss a flight, they will not cover it, the same as if you get kicked out of the country, they will not cover you.loss or damage caused by detention, confiscation or destruction
by customs or other officials or authorities.
If we were any further forwards, we'd be sitting in the pilots lap...

Texas Football Here at Last
As Colorado head coach Dan Hawkins put it: "It's Division I football! It's the Big 12!"...and it is here. Teams around the country are gearing up and on Saturday the Longhorns take on Arkansas State. Inside Texas takes you position-by-position and previews the 2007 Texas Longhorns.

Big 12 eyes a return to the top
Dallas Morning News
The last four years, the Big 12 has been a two-team league: Oklahoma and Texas. While both are getting a lot of preseason praise from voters, Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops and Texas coach Mack Brown sound markedly different about their teams.

Everyone benefit with rekindling of old rivalries
Dallas Morning News
When we still had the Southwest Conference to kick around, gauging the strength of Texas' Division I-A football schools was fairly simple. To wit: Most of them played each other. The rest of the country can't get it together for a playoff, but at least we played for the national championship of Texas. An even worse aspect of the SWC's inevitable breakup was the end of old rivalries, especially if you're a have-not forced to make up the lost payday with Marshall or Tulane. But look what's happened since Steve Hatchell turned out the lights a little more than a decade ago: The SWC is back.

Dunking a basketball came naturally to the UT's Limas Sweed, who stood 6-foot-5 as a 10th-grader and had visions of a Michael Jordan-like career in his future. But Sweed was persuaded to give football a try, and has become one of the nation's best receivers.

Arkansas St.-Texas Preview
Associated Press
At the beginning of last season, Colt McCoy was a 19-year-old kid with no college football experience who was supposed to replace Vince Young as the quarterback at Texas. By the end of the season, McCoy's absence was one of the main reasons that Texas couldn't defend its first national championship in 35 years. Now fully recovered from a neck injury that bothered him late last season, McCoy looks to build on his strong first year as No. 4 Texas tries to rebound from a disappointing season - at least by Longhorn standards - when it opens 2007 by hosting Arkansas State on Saturday.

Arkansas State won't be the Indians much longer
Austin American-Statesman
What if Texas no longer could be the Longhorns? If the NCAA wouldn't allow it? If they had to change their mascot immediately or be banned from playing in championship bowl games or any postseason events? That's exactly the situation in which Arkansas State finds itself. The Indians won't be the Indians much longer.
TE puts hurt on defense
Fort Worth Star-Telegram
College teams aren't required to submit weekly injury reports, as the 32 clubs in the NFL must. If the NCAA did require that practice, though, it's a safe bet TCU would list Shae Reagan each week. When Reagan is healthy, he's TCU's top tight end. He's a big-play threat and a matchup nightmare in an offense that is looking for a go-to receiver.

Over three weeks, we tested Leica's new M10 digital rangefinder, valued at $9700. Two things became clear at the end of this period. The M10 is the digital camera 'Leicaphiles' been waiting for since 2002's film M, and it's not a camera I will buy.
Confused? Let me explain. First a disclaimer. I grew up with film Leica cameras. I shot thousands of images on my father's M3, and my M6. So I have a history and connection with the brand.
Let's go into the positives, and there are many. Unlike the bulky dimensions of all digital Leicas before it, the M10 feels exactly the same in the hand as my old film M6 from the late 1990s. Now, for Canon or Nikon shooters the fact that the latest DSLR in, say, the 5D range or D800 range has the same dimensions as its predecessor would not be given much importance. But for a very expensive camera with such a glorious heritage, the fact that the M10 shares dimensions with its film forbearers is a massive development, and will have Leica fans bouncing off the walls.
The fact that the M10's ISO selector is a pull-up knob, just like the film roller on an M3, is another lovely touch that goes to show how much thought and attention to small ergonomic detail Leica has put into this particular model. This was a feature I loved as soon as I got my hands on it. The large shutter dial, just like most Leica cameras since the M6 TTL of 1998, was a joy to use. The rangefinder mechanism was bright and clear. Battery use, a consistent gripe of the M8 and M9, was impressive. One battery will last the day if you are going out shooting street photography – but it still wasn't as good as, say, my Canon 5D MK III.
The simple menu layout was intuitive – with the 'favourite' menu giving you access to most of what you would ever need, such as shutter drive mode and file format (DNG/JPG), exposure compensation and white balance. At the bottom is a main menu, which takes you in to the full set of options. The back of the camera is efficient, with three buttons on the left side for live-view, play, and menu. One dial is on the right side. And that's it.
The low light abilities of the camera are solid and up to the standards expected of full frame sensors in 2017. I was quite happy to shoot at ISO 3200 and even 6400, but noticed a degradation in the quality of the files from that point onwards. With Leica's excellent fast lens options, you probably won't need to go beyond 6400, anyway. The shutter is loud, compared to mirror-less options, but a big improvement on the screeching thunderclap of the M8 and M9.
The drawbacks? This camera does not shoot video. And if you are a working photographer in the 21st century you need a camera that does. Maybe the reason the camera is slimmer than the M is because they took the video function out, and that is a perfectly legitimate thing for the company to have done, to stay true to their customer base.
Personally, much as I would like to replicate the feel of my M6 by using the M10, my vote has to go to the video-capable M already on the market. In other words, I love this camera but I am dragged away from it because of this one limitation.
If you love Leicas as a working philosophy – the M10 is the truest digital camera to that philosophy, and the company should be applauded for taking that step. If it had video, I would jump at it.

Friday, March 13, 2009
Today went much better, even though I'm in the middle of an absolutely miserable allergy attack which has, so far, remained impervious to Claritin.
Today I got phone calls from Dad's speech therapist, occupational therapist, and doctor, so the nursing home's really on the ball about getting his therapy program rolling. The doctor enjoyed talking to Dad, and said that while he qualifies medically for hospice, they're going to try an aggressive rehab program first, to see if Dad can go home. Works for me! The doctor did say that Dad's lungs are "junky," which is a bit worrisome, since he just got out of the hospital to get rid of lung junk. They're going to do another BNP on Monday; I'm curious to see if that's improved.
I spent the morning and afternoon doing work stuff, and then swam for an hour. (Yay!) I went to see Dad around 5:00, when he's often, lately, been completely tuckered out from the day. But I found him sitting up in his wheelchair and very coherent, although he said that last night was the worst night's sleep of his life. His lunch tray was still on his bedside table, and it looked like he'd eaten a lot of it. I wheeled him down to the dining room for dinner, and he ate a lot there, too, and chatted with the two other people at his table.
I couldn't believe how much better he seemed today than yesterday! I'm much heartened, although -- based on experience -- I wouldn't be surprised to find him completely done in again tomorrow. But a decent day is good; we'll take it. (One day at a time, and so forth.)
I left at seven. The evening metamorphosis seemed to be underway: there were plaintive howls for help from the room across the hall, and the wheelchair brigade was collecting around the nursing station. But when I walked through the crowd, the residents in the wheelchairs smiled at me and said hello, instead of looking lost and terrified. (I hope I didn't sound uncompassionate in yesterday's post; I ached for all of them, but the scene was still chilling.)
I hope they don't become lost and terrified as the evening progresses. I hope Dad doesn't, either.

So glad to hear it was a good day. I wonder if the early evening change at the nursing home is due to "sundowning" in some of the patients. Sundowning or sunsetting is an episode of confusion, anxiety and/or agitation which occurs at dusk and into the evening (sometimes all night).ReplyDelete

Dear Susan,ReplyDelete
Sorry I've been out of touch - I've been reading on the road while traveling to take care of some things for my own family, and it's been a busy time. You are in my thoughts and prayers even when I don't have the electronic wherewithal to put my comments into posts, though! I hope your father continues to have good days, and you continue to have good days, and the two of you continue to have good days together.
On a totally unrelated note, I just had a chance to read "Shelter" at long last. What a phenomenal book! A very hard and heart-breaking read at times, but it was all worth it for the final few pages. Thank you so much for writing such a wonderful book and sharing such an extraordinary set of stories.

Why does the baby fight sleep
there can be many reasons why a baby would be fighting sleep. They could be over tired from not getting enough sleep, teething, just general curiosity about the world around them. I find it's best to try and establish a routine early on and stay consistent in your tactics and usually a pattern will emerge

Zinedine Zidane (a three-times winner), last year's winner Ronaldinho and European Player of the year Fabio Cannavaro have been named as the three remaining candidates on the final shortlist for this year's Fifa World Player of the Year award – which means France and Arsenal striker Thierry Henry has missed out again.
Henry was the only player to appear in the finals of both the Champions League and the World Cup last season, though he finished on the losing side both times.
The winner of the award will be revealed on 18 December. It is voted for by the coach and the captain of each of the 207 national teams, who each pick their top three players of the year.
Italy and Real Madrid defender Cannavaro picked up the Ballon D'Or award for European Footballer of the Year earlier this week.
Barcelona and Brazil forward Ronaldinho won the World award in each of the last two seasons and is one of the favourites again this year.
Zidane retired from playing football after the World Cup final last summer, though he was sent off in that match, which was not planned. He could win the award for a fourth time, following his recognition in 1998, 2000 and 2003.
The women's award category sees Kristine Lilly (USA), Renate Lingor (Germany) and Marta (Brazil) shortlisted.

text: Miners have resisted, clashing with police while intermittently blocking traffic on the Interoceanic Highway in recent weeks. One miner was killed and more than 50 people hurt by shotgun and gunfire during those confrontations.Illegal mining accounts for about 20 percent of Peru's gold exports, and most miners are poor migrants from the Andean highlands. By cracking down the government is toying with a powder keg, some Peruvians fear. "People are going to go hungry," said Luis Otzuka, president of Fedemin, which represents the informal miners. "This is a dictatorial, authoritarian government." He said his group was sending a delegation to Lima, the capital, on Tuesday to appeal to officials to halt the crackdown. "In the course of this week there will be strikes," Otzuka said. "The government is clearing out the mining corridor. The idea is to do away with mining in Madre de Dios." Miner Joel Macedo looked on disconsolately as machinery burned in the mining camp where he worked. "Where am I going to work now? Do they want me to become a criminal?" he said. Urresti said the government will soon decree the investment of $35 million in public works projects in the region to offer the miners employment in agriculture, ecotourism and other areas. "We know we're not going to do away with illegal mining unless we solve the social problem," he said. Urresti said the government has no plans to forcibly remove miners from the shantytowns where they live. He said the government sympathizes with the miners, and is more interested in the businesspeople behind the illegal mining. The government has vowed to identify and prosecute them. "The people who are illegal are the 50 people who are financing all this, not the day laborers who do all the hard work under dangerous conditions and are poisoned with mercury," he said.

Speaking at a Moneylife Foundation seminar, IRDA chairman J Hari Narayan also said prohibiting banks from selling insurance products is not feasible in India
J Hari Narayan, chairman, IRDA (Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority), said no party should be refused an insurance policy and disability should not be a ground for rejecting insurance. It is also against the rules to refuse medical insurance to senior citizens, he said. However, he admitted that enforcement on the ground may need to be tightened. He was speaking at a small interactive session organised by Moneylife Foundation with senior citizens and physically challenged. The IRDA chairman said that he would look into the issues raised by the group of senior citizens and activists.
The IRDA chairman later addressed a packed public meeting on the topic whether sensible health insurance is possible in India. On prohibiting banks from selling insurance, Mr Hari Narayan said that this is not feasible in India, though countries like Canada do have such stringent policies. Issues relating to life insurance, mis-selling, bancassurance, lapsed policies and poor grievance redressal were also discussed.
Health insurance is a cause of concern for everyone. With rising medical inflation and annual hike in health insurance premium, quality healthcare seems to be a distant dream, except for the elite who can afford the expensive hospital treatment or pricey health insurance premiums, the activists said.
The common issues that most citizens face are rising health insurance premium, inability of senior citizens' to increase sum insured, TPA (third party administrators) and intermediary issues and restrictive mediclaim policies. There were complains that more and more claims are getting rejected for impractical reasons and cashless facility restricted to few hospitals.
Moneylife Foundation, in a memorandum presented to the Mr Hari Narayan, raised these and others issues along with suggested actions.
Regarding handling health insurance claims, Mr Hari Narayan pointed that the system was working well, by and large. He pointed out that last year out of the 47 lakh claims received, 9.4 lakh claims were rejected. He pointed out that 80% of the claims are met and the industry has paid out as much as Rs5,885 crore. More than half the claims were settled within 30 days. He pointed out that the most frequent claims are from fever due to unknown origin followed by cataract.
Sensible universal health cover for masses is certainly a possibility in India, the IRDA chairman said. The government-initiated products like RSBY (Rashtriya Swasthya Bima Yojna) has done well for the masses with premium as low as Rs400 per family for a cover of Rs30,000 sum insured. They cover primary and secondary health care. Arogya Shree is another success story in Andhra Pradesh which covers tertiary health care i.e. covering only if any procedure is performed. A product, which is a combination of two can be promoted to masses for bulk penetration. This can be offered to certain section of society at nominal cost.
The other half of the population, which is at a higher income level can buy this product at a higher rate, which will still be much lower than an individual mediclaim product. The product may be up to certain sum insured. If anyone needs higher sum insured, they can buy 'top-up' policy to cover over and above the sum insured, which is offered by this mass product, Mr Hari Narayan said.
The seminar was attended by a number of activists, experts and eminent citizens.
The deal, which is valued at an aggregate amount of Rs1,450 crore, is the largest Foreign Direct Investment deal in any Indian asset management company till date
New Delhi Competition watchdog Competition Commission of India (CCI) has approved the proposal of Japanese major Nippon Life to acquire 26% stake in Reliance Capital's mutual fund arm RCAML, reports PTI.
The deal, which is valued at an aggregate amount of Rs1,450 crore, is the largest Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) deal in any Indian asset management company till date.
"Considering the facts on record and the details provided in the notice... and the assessment of the proposed combination, the Commission is of the opinion that the proposed combination is not likely to have any appreciable adverse effect on competition in India and therefore...
approves the proposed combination," CCI said in an order.
CCI noted that Nippon Life, which is a global player in providing asset management and portfolio management services, has no direct operations or presence in India in the same space, except for a 26% equity participation in Reliance Life Insurance Company, a subsidiary of R Capital.
"It is observed from the information available on the website of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) that there are more than 40 other AMCs registered with SEBI providing services similar to the asset management services provided by RCAML in India and there are more than 250 portfolio managers registered with SEBI providing similar services," it said.
First announced in January this year, Nippon Life will invest an aggregate value of Rs1,450 crore ($290 million) to acquire 26% stake Reliance Capital Asset Management Company (RCAML).
The transaction pegs the valuation of Reliance Capital Asset Management at around Rs5,600 crore ($1.1 billion).
This deal further expands Reliance Capital's partnership with Nippon Life. In October last year, Reliance Capital completed a 26% stake sale in its life insurance venture, Reliance Life, to Nippon Life for over Rs3,000 crore.
Reliance Capital Asset Management (RCAM) manages around Rs1,40,000 crore assets.
Nippon Life is a Fortune 100 company and the seventh-largest life insurer in the world. It is a leading private life insurer in Asia and Japan.
CCI is empowered by an Act of Parliament to scrutinise high-value deals that could have a bearing on fair competition in the market.
Shares of Reliance Capital closed at Rs287.95 on BSE, down 2.83% from its previous close.
If today's lows hold, the Nifty may see a short rally
A weak rupee and dismal global cues pushed the markets lower today. If today's lows hold, we may see a small bounce-back. Today the Sensex hit a high of 16,133, the lowest since 10 January 2012 while it went down to the level of 15,975, its lowest since 13 January 2012. The National Stock Exchange (NSE) saw a volume of 64.55 crore shares which is above its 10 day moving average.
The market opened sharply lower on weak global cues and the depreciating rupee, which hit a fresh five-month low. The inability of Greece to form a government led to fears of the beleaguered nation discarding the euro, thus worsening the Eurozone crisis. The development led the US markets lower overnight, which also had a bearing on the Asian back that were trading lower in morning trade today.
Back home, the Nifty opened 108 points down at 4,875 and the Sensex tanked 195 to resume trade at 16,133. Meanwhile, the rupee fell to a five-month low losing 47 paise to 54.26 against the US dollar on the Interbank Foreign Exchange market in early trade on increased capital outflows amid strong demand for the greenback. The rupee had touched a record intra-day low of 54.32 on 15 December 2011.
While the opening figure on the Sensex was its intraday high, the Nifty hit this level in a short time with the index touching 4,882. Across-the-board selling saw all sectoral indices in the negative. The market, which witnessed a gap-down opening, was range-bound in subsequent trade.
Concerns of a slowdown in economic growth and a lower opening of the European markets resulted in the benchmarks falling to their mid-session lows in noon trade. At the lows, the Nifty fell to 4,837 and the Sensex fell below its psychological level to 15,975.
Trade continued to be lacklustre in the late session as global cues and the weakening rupee thwarted any recovery attempt. At the close, the Nifty declined 85 points (1.71%) to 4,858 and the Sensex closed 298 points (1.83%) lower at 16,030.
The advance-decline ratio on the NSE was negative at 444:1209.
Among the broader markets, the BSE Mid-cap index declined 0.78% and the BSE Small-cap index dropped 1.11%.
All sectoral indices settled lower. The key losers were BSE Metal (down 2.68%); BSE Auto 2.59%); BSE Consumer Durables (down 1.94%); BSE Capital Goods (down 1.69%) and BSE Bankex (down 1.65%).
Sterlite Industries (up 0.87%) and Bajaj Auto (up 0.47%) were the only gainers on the Sensex. The top losers were Tata Motors (down 7.34%); Tata Steel (down 3.89%); BHEL (down 3.74%); HDFC (down 3.71%) and Hindalco Industries (down3.28%).
The Nifty was led by BPCL (up 2.53%); Power Grid Corporation (up 1.65%); Cairn India (up 1.30%); Bajaj Auto (up 1.08%) and Kotak Mahindra Bank (up 1.02%). Tata Motors (down 7.70%); Tata Steel (down 4.40%); SAIL (down 4.18%); Reliance Infrastructure (down 3.73%) and Jaiprakash Associates (down 3.59%) settled lower on the index.
Markets in Asia settled lower on concerns about the Greek crisis and a tepid loan growth in China's top four state-controlled banks in the first half of this month. The global developments are seen dampening overseas investors' appetite in the region.
The Shanghai Composite declined 1.21%; the Hang Seng tumbled 3.06%; the Jakarta Composite dropped 1.61%, the KLSE Composite fell by 1.60%; the Nikkei 225 fell by 1.12%; the Straits Times slipped 1.58%; the KOSPI Composite tumbled 3.08% and the Taiwan Weighted settled 2.18% lower.
At the time of writing, the key European indices were mostly lower while the US stock futures were in the positive.
Back home, institutional investors-both foreign and domestic-were net sellers in the equities segment on Tuesday. Foreign institutional investors were pulled out Rs184.28 crore and domestic institutional investors withdrew Rs82.85 crore.
Diversified business house Videocon Industries said it will raise $51.02 million (over Rs270 crore) through issue of securities on a private placement basis from overseas market. In a filing to the BSE, the company said it will issue 1,57,50,000 Global Depository Receipts representing 1,57,50,000 equity shares. The stock gained 0.85% to close at Rs171.50 on the NSE.
Pharma major Aurobindo Pharma on Wednesday stated that it has received final approval from the US Food & Drug Administration (USFDA) to manufacture and market Lamivudine and Zidovudine tablets in America. The tablets are the generic equivalent of ViiV Healthcare Company's Combivir tablets and are indicated as part of antiretroviral combination therapy for the treatment of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infected persons. Aurobindo declined 0.52% to close at Rs105.55 on the NSE.
Indian Overseas Bank (IOB) is likely to raise $500 million this fiscal to fund its business growth overseas. The funding will be through a Medium Term Note (MTN) programme, which is basically a debt instrument with a maturity of 5-10 years. The stock tumbled 2.37% to settle at Rs78.25 on the NSE.

PNC Park Food: Three Things To Try
The PNC Park food menu, like at most ballparks, reflects its hometown. As I state in the interesting, informative and necessary PNC Park E-Guide, there is something special about the way Pittsburghers do sandwiches. There are no rules.
I'm not sure why this is some sort of thing that is somewhat unique to Pittsburgh, but the home of the Pirates is starting to reflect this in a big way, and like at most ballparks these days, fans can sample great city favorites without leaving the venue.
PNC Park Food Tip #1: The Primanti Bros. Sandwich. Some locals will tell you that the iconic Primanti Bros. sandwich is not as great at the ballpark as it is at the several Primanti locations around the Burgh. Less food for your dollar and the slaw is less tasty, I've read. If you believe that, by all means try a Primanti Bros. location elsewhere.
But if you don't have that option, the Primanti sandwich is a classic taste of Pittsburgh at the game.
I'll describe the sandwich for you. At PNC Park you have a choice of steak, capicola or roast beef, covered with cheese and on airy Italian bread. French fries and Cole slaw are included, and they just happen to be piled into the sandwich.
It is indeed a unique and delicious sandwich. I do recommend sitting down at a nearby picnic table to eat one though. If you eat it at your seat you'll be picking fries out of your lap, and that just isn't baseball.
PNC Park Food Tip #2: The Cracker Jack and Mac Dog. It may not be as crazy as the Froot Loops dog in Cleveland or the Burgerizza in Atlanta, but the Cracker Jack and Mac Cheese Dog is pretty imaginative as far as baseball food goes.
The Cracker Jack and Mac Dog features a dog on pita bread, with mac and cheese, pickled jalapenos and yes, Cracker Jack piled onto it.
I'm normally against putting anything sweet on a hot dog, but in this case I like the idea, because Cracker Jack is baseball food and I can only eat so much of it. I can pick off the Cracker Jacks and then have a tasty dog with mac and cheese and jalapenos, and all is well.
PNC Park Food Tip #3: The Polish Hill Cheesesteak. Pittsburgh is way too great a food city to feature Philly staples in their ballpark, so it's kind of disappointing to see a Chickie's and Pete's fry stand, great as their crab fries are. But at least they created a cool Pittsburgh version of the Philly sandwich.
The Polish Hill cheesesteak, featured at the Hall of Fame Club in the outfield, is just like a Philly version in that it's grilled with peppers and onions and slathered in a gooey cheese sauce. But instead of shaved beef, it's shaved kielbasa. How did that take so long to get on the menu?
If you want the Philly beef version you can actually get one at the Chickie's and Pete's stand. But come on, this ain't Philly. You're in the Burgh. Live it.
That's just a few food items in PNC Park; but there's also the Abso-Bac'n-Lutely Burger, the Pierogi Stacker, the Quaker Steak wings, the Reuben dog and much much more…think ahead.
That's how much it cost a family of four to see a Pirates game at PNC Park in 2016, according to the MLB Fan Cost Index.
Are you planning a trip to the Burgh for a Pirates game? Do you want to slash that ridiculous total, AND find a great seat, parking spot, and a tasty sandwich at the game?
The PNC Park E-Guide is your complete insider's guide to the beautiful Pittsburgh ballpark, full of money-saving tips…and you can download and own it today!

The science of human hearing sound is called human acoustics. Human acoustics specifically indicates the different processes that are involved in the perception of some sound by our ears.
Sound waves set up oscillations in the eardrum made up of tympanic membrane in the upper ear. The oscillations in the eardrum induce movements of the three small soft bones in the middle ear behind the eardrum.
The movements or oscillations in the middle ear pass through viscous fluid in the inner ear, creating oscillations of the fluid. These oscillations then reach the auditory nerves and are finally transmitted to the brain.
The oscillations or sounds are identified and interpreted in the brain, which has the capacity to analyze sound into different frequency components.
Human detectable frequency ranges are 2 to 20,000 Hz.
An eighteen year old person, with normal hearing, has audio range between 20 to 20,000 Hz. The audio sense is most sharp in the frequency range 2000 to 5500 Hz.
Sensitivity of the ear varies from person to person. With ageing, hearing power decreases progressively. The ear is susceptible to damage if it receives high intensity noise. However, the ear has some natural protective device for short durations.
Thus, decibel measures how much intense is the sound compared to reference intensity. Human beings can receive a vast range of intensities from around 1 x 10″12 W/m2 to 1000 W/m2.The reference intensity Iq is taken as 1 x 10″12 W/m2, which is considered to be an intensity level just audible to man.
This thus can be said to be threshold of hearing. Unfortunately, there are practical difficulties in accurately measuring intensity.

Dow Corning evaluates waste reduction efforts
Dow Corning has reported significant progress in waste reduction, including a cut of up to 80% in process scrap at one of its manufacturing sites.
Seneffe, Belgium – Dow Corning has reported significant progress in waste reduction, including a cut of up to 80% in process scrap at one of its manufacturing sites.
The reductions have been achieved in part through the company's materials conversion program, which converts or recycles its waste, scrap, and off-spec silicone materials instead of sending them to landfill or incineration.
But the reduction also reflects actions at all operations to reduce waste.anies Dow Corning is actively looking for ways to cut our waste levels."
Examples of the success in these efforts in Europe include:
Reducing the amount of process scrap generated by the emulsions and antifoam production unit of its Seneffe, Belgium manufacturing site by 80 percent;
Lowering the waste generated in its Barry, Wales, site by a factor of 10; and
Reducing the overall amount of waste solvent at the Barry site by reusing a different solvent that is generated as a waste byproduct elsewhere in the plant.
Examples in North America include:
Reducing consumption of natural gas and carbon dioxide emissions by burning hydrogen at its Midland, MI, plant.
Reducing the amount of solvent used in a coating process in Midland that had been sent to an offsite disposal facility by recycling it.
Reducing emissions of greenhouse gases through energy reduction at its Carrollton, KY, plant has also helped to offset the impact of rising natural gas prices. A wide variety of projects over the past five years have contributed to a 19,800 tons-per-year reduction in carbon dioxide emissions.
Examples in China include:
Recycling more than 80% of the waste at its Zhangjiagang (ZJG) sealant plant, in contrast to the 90% of waste that had previously been sent offsite for disposal.
Through the first half of 2008, the Zhangjiagang sealant plant has reduced generation of
The sealants plant also has established a program to focus on further reducing the sealant waste at its point of generation. The plant is committed to moving its waste stream up through the "waste hierarchy" from disposal to recycling, to reduction and elimination.
"Our commitment to sustainability not only factors into the products, processes, technologies and solutions Dow Corning offers," said Cartwright, "but it also is apparent in our approach to waste reduction during the manufacturing process."

The Arizona Cardinals won't soon forget their 23-21 loss to the New England Patriots, as coaches and players have pinpointed a number of alarming issues that plagued Arizona during the contest.
On Thursday, its was defensive coordinator James Bettcher's turn to analyze the Cardinals' downfall, and like head coach Bruce Arians who spoke earlier in the week, Bettcher pointed out the Patriots' 10-for-16 success rate on third downs as the defining issue of his defense's performance.
"We came in Monday morning, sat down and obviously all sick to our stomachs with disappointment and our performance defensively," Bettcher said. "Looked at the tape, and the first thing you always do is you look at the things that were the issues and we know third down defense was one of the issues in the game. Leverage, tackling on third downs were an extremely important part of the reason we didn't have success in those situations."
On multiple third downs, New England quarterback and first-time starter Jimmy Garoppolo actually hit receivers short of the first down marker, but the elusiveness of players like Julian Edelman and Malcolm Mitchell haunted Arizona as Patriots' players consistently broke tackles and stretched forward for extra yardage.
"Tackling overall was an issue for us," Bettcher said. "There's some runs that got out on us where if we make the tackle, on first hit, we had them at about 95 yards after contact and that's too much and we haven't had that in awhile here. Those are things that we addressed and you come in after a loss like that, and the only way to handle expectations is to focus on the moment you're in. And that's the point of emphasis to these guys on defense."
Like Arians, Bettcher knows the Cardinals missed an opportunity, but also understands the team cannot afford to lose a second consecutive home game, this time against a conference opponent.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers come to town on Sunday, boasting a 1-0 record after a 31-24 defeat of NFC South Division foe Atlanta. The Buccaneers were just 3-for-10 on third down against the Falcons, but quarterback Jameis Winston enjoyed plenty of success through the air as he tossed for 281 yards on 23 completions.
Bettcher was complimentary of Winston on Thursday, citing the second-year quarterback's improved command of the offense and ability to check into more favorable plays at the line of scrimmage as a reason for Tampa Bay's week one success.
"Moving onto Tampa, I thought Jameis (Winston) did a great job running their offense this past week," Bettcher said. "You saw him making checks at the line of scrimmage, he's got some control of the offense it looks like in terms of ability to change plays at the line of scrimmage. I thought he did a nice job delivering the ball, we all know he's got an explosive arm, buys time in the pocket to make throws down the field."
The Buccaneers struggled to run the ball against the Falcons, as starter Doug Martin averaged just 3.4 yards per carry on 18 touches. Martin is coming off one of the best seasons of his career in 2015, when he averaged nearly 5.0 yards per carry and amassed more than 1,400 yards on the ground. Coupled with a capable backup in Charles Sims, Bettcher said Tampa Bay has a strong identity in the backfield.
"In the backfield between Martin and Sims, you've got two extremely powerful running backs," Bettcher said. "Both of them have some of their own set of plays and ways they feature them and use them, so you've got to bring your big boy pads to tackle both of those guys because they are powerful, explosive runners."
Aside from Winston, Tampa Bay's other offensive standout from Sunday's season-opening victory was wide receiver Mike Evans, who caught five passes for 99 yards and one touchdown. Evans put up 1,000-yard seasons in each of his first two seasons in the league, and will likely match up with Cardinals cornerback Patrick Peterson in what figures to be one of the most intriguing showdowns around the league in week two.
Peterson was stout against New England, but rookie corner and first-time starter Brandon Williams struggled against New England's route concepts. Williams will likely match up with Vincent Jackson, who caught just two passes on Sunday for 18 yards.
"Then on the outside with Jackson and Evans, both of those guys are tall, long receivers," Bettcher said. "They're going to throw the ball vertically down the field to both of them and those guys are obviously going to be an important part of their offense and what they do."null
