INDEPENDENTS REPORT: What's on the worry list?
Wal-Mart's a concern, but it's trumped by health insurance costs and recruitment anxieties, retailers say.
What issues present the greatest challenges to independent supermarket operators? I posed that question to several of them and found that for both single-store operators and multi-store chains, the concerns appear to be mounting. Needless to say, Wal-Mart earned a spot on their combined list, as did achieving budgeted gross profits, niche marketing, and finding ways to pay for technology and other capital improvements. But the biggies were the rising cost of health insurance and workers compensation, combined with the need to attract a motivated and qualified work force.
While Wal-Mart is exerting tremendous pressure on sales, independents concur that they must pay close attention to price. And they agree they must search for ways to differentiate their stores, specifically in perishables and customer service.
Oregon retailer Rudy Dory, a 26-year veteran of the food industry, says the key to competing in a volatile environment is not only to be aware of the competition, but also to focus completely on what happens within your own store.
"I feel that we as retailers spend too much time worrying about how to beat Wal-Mart and not enough time dreaming and implementing ways to best Wal-Mart," says Dory. "In the words of Wee Willie Harper, 'Hit them where they ain't.'"
The single-store operator and IGA Retailer of the Year apparently practices what he preaches. Dory's 22,000-square-foot Newport Avenue Market IGA Plus in Bend recently celebrated its most successful holiday selling season ever, with sales up 11 percent over the prior record.
"These days, we can no longer view ourselves as food stores; rather we are solution merchants," he says. "Every customer has a problem, and we have the opportunity to solve it. When we solve that problem, they remember us. That's the link to market awareness."
Consumers in Brewster, Ohio have long been aware of Belloni Foods. Founded in 1908, the 15,000-square-foot store has developed an outstanding reputation for service, convenience, and cleanliness. And while much in retail has changed during the past century, the devotion of long-time Belloni customers and associates has apparently not wavered.
"Sometimes I shake my head and wonder why I'm so fortunate," says owner Buzz Belloni. "My employees are great, and they're committed to our customers. I don't see the lack of work ethic in young associates that I hear so many others complaining about. In every way they can be measured, my 50 employees are smarter and faster."
What does concern the third-generation grocer is that "We've become a mobile and homogenized society in that when one exits an interchange in, for example, Cleveland, it will look and feel like any other city. American consumers like familiarization and fear taking chances on things they don't know. They're drawn to retailers that they recognize, usually national chains," says Belloni.
"As independents, we can sit back and make excuses as to why the big guys have the magic. In many cases, they've simply built a better mousetrap," he says. "We need to learn to separate excuses from reality and be willing to change. Too often, independents become emotionally attached to the way things used to be. To that I say, 'When you discover you're riding a dead horse, the best strategy is to dismount.'"
For Belloni, bigger isn't always better. Last year, he cancelled plans to double the size of his store, saying the sales increase expected from it didn't warrant a $3.5 million investment. "Right now, we view our size as an attribute," he says. "We're focused on maximizing sales per square foot."
Travel west to Quincy, Ill. and you'll discover Niemann Foods, a company that has more than doubled its store count over the last three years. Operating 46 supermarkets under three different banners—Save-A-Lot, Cub, and County Market—Niemann faces challenges that practically mirror those of single-store operators.
"Wal-Mart and other chain competitors are driving down the price deck, which is forcing independents to be more aggressive promotionally. That's making it tough to manage gross profits," says Chris Niemann, v.p. and c.f.o. "At the same time, it's becoming more difficult for independents to capture attention—and dollars—from the vendor community."
Another issue is hiring, training, and motivating employees. "To attract the best talent, independents must be seen as viable long-term players," says Niemann. "When recruiting new associates, we promote the fact that our company is employee-owned through an ESOP. It's a real selling point when applicants learn that they can become owners and share in company profits."
A lot of the downward pressure on supermarket profitability is coming from the rising cost of health insurance. "While health care premiums have exploded in recent years, benefits are key to maintaining a productive work force," says Niemann. "Our company has assumed much of the burden of the increases, but we've asked our associates to pick up a small percentage of the cost."
He adds, "The employment/benefit structure must change, or gross profits must increase to cover the expense."
In the end, the retailers agree that successful independents must continually reinvest in their stores, both emotionally and financially.
"In my mind, growing our store base and advancing technology are crucial," says Niemann. "However, both require a great deal of capital. While our company has had no problem borrowing money to this point, there is a limit and a cost. At the same time, there is no standing still."

How do I use a French bank API for payment?Asked by sudsport on July 06, 2015 at 11:14 AM
The transaction volume based on our use of Jotform isn't sufficient to get competitive prices with PayPal.

How can we integrate such API in JotForm, do we need you or can we do it on our own.

Project DescriptionThe offices of PVH are on the 19th floor of the Capital Reforma building in Mexico City. The space is located on one floor with approximately 1,700m2 and has lots of natural light.
The architectural plan consists of a mixture of different spaces in order to create a better work environment, where the different forms of working are represented in the variety of spaces such as the 'working café' or 'casual collisions.' We made sure that all the work stations had access to natural light, since that notably increases productivity.
The concept of this space consists of incorporating the image of the different brands of clothing that PVH handles in Mexico. For this, we use natural materials, neutral colors and straight lines and we complement the space with decorative elements that represent each of the brands. For example, we use eclectic rugs, referencing Tommy Hilfiger, and fashion photos in black and white referencing the Calvin Klein brand.

I've got a teeney-tiny crazy cat lady on my hands. At six months Georgia was crawling. She wasn't crawling towards me or to her father - she was crawling towards this one.
Well, today this cute lady is 10 months old (Ten?! Seriously?! This doesn't seem possible). Not even her old age has mellowed her love for the kitteh.
So obsessed is she I'm certain she'll grow up to be a feline herself. Practice makes perfect, right?
Only two more months until this peach is an entire year old. I know it shouldn't, but this kind of breaks my heart. It seems like the end of an era. I'm sure I'll be relieved somehow once it's the day after her birthday and everything seems just the same.

The statement must include:
The auditor's name and address;
The number allocated to the auditor on being entered in the register of auditors kept under section 1239 CA06;
The company's name and registered number.
Where there are matters connected with an auditor's ceasing to hold office that the auditor considers need to be brought to the attention of members or creditors of the company, the statement under this section must include details of those matters.
If the auditor considers that none of the reasons for ceasing to hold office and no matters (if any) connected with the auditor's ceasing to hold office, need to be brought to the attention of members or creditors of the company, the statement must include a statement to that effect.

an insurance undertaking within the meaning given by Article 2(1) of the Council Directive 1991/674/EEC of the European Parliament and of the Council on the annual accounts and consolidated accounts of insurance undertakings.
'Transferable securities' means anything which is a transferable security for the purposes of Directive 2004/39/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on markets in financial instruments.
"issuer" and "regulated market" have the same meaning as in Part 6 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000.
Note 2

The Auditor is no longer to carry out statutory audit work within the meaning of Part 42 (see section 1210(1));
The company is, or is to become, exempt from audit under section 477, 479A or 480, or from the requirements of this Part under section 482, and intends to include in its balance sheet a statement of the type described in section 475(2);
The company is a subsidiary undertaking of a parent undertaking that is incorporated in the United Kingdom and
The parent undertaking prepares group accounts, and

The company is being wound-up under Part 4 of the Insolvency Act 1986 or Part 5 of the Insolvency (Northern Ireland) Order 1989 (SI 1989/2405 (NI 19)), whether voluntarily or by the court, or a petition under Part 4 of that Act or Part 5 of that Order for the winding up of the company has been presented and not finally dealt with or withdrawn.
The reason described in c) above is only an exempt reason if the auditor who is conducting, or is to conduct, an audit of the group accounts is also conducting, or is also to conduct, the audit (if any) of the accounts of each of the subsidiary undertakings (of the parent undertaking) that is incorporated in the United Kingdom and included in the consolidation.
Note 3
The end of the period for appointing an auditor for private companies is 28 days beginning with (see section 485(2) of CA06):
(a) the end of the time allowed for sending out copies of the company's annual accounts and reports for the previous financial year (see section 424), and
(b) the day on which copies of the company's annual accounts and reports for the previous financial year are sent out under section 423.

text: SUPERVALU INC. (NYSE:SVU) today is announcing that it experienced a criminal intrusion into the portion of its computer network that processes payment card transactions for some of its retail food stores, including some of its associated stand-alone liquor stores. This criminal intrusion may have resulted in the theft of account numbers, and in some cases also the expiration date, other numerical information and/or the cardholder's name, from payment cards used at some point of sale systems at some of the Company's owned and franchised stores. The Company has not determined that any such cardholder data was in fact stolen by the intruder, and it has no evidence of any misuse of any such data, but is making this announcement out of an abundance of caution. SUPERVALU believes that the payment cards from which such cardholder data may have been stolen were used during the period of June 22 (at the earliest) through July 17 (at the latest), 2014, at the 180 SUPERVALU stores and stand-alone liquor stores listed at www.supervalu.com under the Consumer Security Advisory section, operated under the Cub Foods, Farm Fresh, Hornbacher's, Shop 'n Save and Shoppers Food & Pharmacy banners. The intrusion may also have resulted in the theft of such cardholder data from some cards used during this period at 29 franchised Cub Foods stores and stand-alone liquor stores, which are included in the store list referenced on the SUPERVALU website. SUPERVALU currently believes that the intrusion did not affect any of its owned or licensed Save-A-Lot stores or any of the independent grocery stores supplied by the Company through its Independent Business network other than the franchised Cub Foods stores referenced above. Upon recognition of the intrusion, the Company took immediate steps to secure the affected part of its network. An investigation supported by third-party data forensics experts is on-going to understand the nature and scope of the incident. SUPERVALU believes the intrusion has been contained and is confident that its customers can safely use their credit and debit cards in its stores.

Times and business strategies change, especially for the HVAC distributor. Jason and Michael (Anthony) Calverley II know this all too well. Their father, Michael Calverley I started Calverley Supply Co. in June of 1974. The Michigan-based company that now has seven locations spread across the state began in their father's home in Royal Oak, Mich. The 38-year-old company is now run by the Calverley brothers and as they adapt to new business demands they don't forget the then and now of Calverley Supply.

A judge ruled Tuesday that Barry Peterson is not the chairman of Idaho's Republican Party and that there is no chair. Last month's contentious state GOP convention ended without finishing any of its business including electing a new chair. Peterson maintained that meant he was still in charge. Now that the court has ruled otherwise Adam Cotterell looks at what comes next.
There's no question Idaho's dominant party is deeply split. Betsy Russell with the Spokesman Review newspaper and Eye on Boise blog says in the courtroom yesterday even Barry Peterson's lawyer said the state GOP is in trouble and the judge agreed. Russell: "The judge did say that this is a party clearly in need of direction. So they've got some healing to do."
Russell says party members on both sides of the divide seemed hopeful yesterday that the healing could now begin. The first step toward that is a meeting scheduled for Saturday. Peterson had hoped to stop that meeting, that's why he sued. But Russell says district judge Randy Stoker ruled it can go ahead.
Russell: "Because it was made by petition of members of the central committee, that that stands under the party rules. So the August second meeting is on and there are no officers at this point. At that meeting the central committee will need to select those."
So the group responsible for fixing the Idaho Republican Party is the state central committee. The central committee has more than 200 members all elected to local party offices in the state's counties and party regions and districts. But so far Saturday's meeting has no agenda or leader. The judge said decisions on those weren't made according to party rules and tossed them out. There's some added time pressure on Saturday's meeting. The party has to patch things up enough to decide who will go to the national Republican convention next week.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
My 13 year old daughter was accussed of shoplifting at Claire's in PA. The clerk told me that she had a $5.00 item in her hand and that I should not worry because this was just a warning and that Claire's does not get security involved in a situation like this. The clerk then said that I needed to sign my name to ensure that I would not bring my daughter into that Claire's store again. The clerk never mentioned anything about any further actions and stated that this was a warning. Now I am getting letters from Palmer, Reifer, in Orlando. The first letter was for $147 and I did not respond because I thought it was some type of scam since I was told by the Claire's clerk that my daughter was getting a warning only. Now I get letters from Palmer, Reifer asking for $457 dollars and robo calls. I do not trust this law firm or Claire's because of the apparently false information I was given from the Claire's clerk. If the clerk had told me to expect contact from a law firm seeking civil penalties I would have known to respond. What should I do now and is it fair of Claire's to tell me one thing and do something quite different? There were no charges filed and no security involved; simply a young clerk who gave me false information about the situation. Please advise,
I am not a PA attorney, but I have some thoughts for you. The store wants money to help offset their security department's costs. You must be certain that nothing you do constitutes a legal admission under PA law that your daughter committed the theft. If she were an adult, I would positively advise you that paying this fee could be deemed an admission of guilt. I do not know whether a parent's doing so could be construed as an admission under PA law that could facilitate a prosecution. My advice is to find a local lawyer who does a lot of shoplifting cases and just book an office appointment with him, For a 30-60 minute office conference, he can look over any forms or papers they sent you to sign and can probably answer all your questions. Even if he charges, and many attorneys do not charge for an initial consultation, it would be worth the peace of mind.Ask a similar question

Jordan Zimmermann will be looking for his third win of the season and his career while five-time Cy Young winner and future Hall of Famer Randy Johnson will be looking for win number 300 of his career.
The Road to 300 started when the Big Unit made his big league debut on September 15, 1988 for the Montreal Expos while facing the Pittsburgh Pirates in a 9-4 victory.
He was selected by the Expos in the second round of the 1985 draft out of the University of Southern California. He played only two seasons for the Expos in posting a 3-4 record before being traded to the Seattle Mariners where he would really make a name for himself.
Jordan told me Tuesday that he definitely wants to stop history from happening here at Nationals Park when Johnson takes the mound aiming for number 300. He understands there will be a lot of people cheering against him and for Randy but that makes the challenge all the more welcoming.
He also said the key for him is to mix up his pitches and get out of the first inning. If he can stay ahead in the count he'll be fine.
Nats starter John Lannan also told me his new pitching coach Steve McCatty had a lot to do with him making a smooth transition from Triple A to the big leagues.
He said McCatty was very instrumental in helping him focus on the mental part of the game.
Joel Hanrahan also had McCatty as a pitching coach in 2007. He said he appreciates what the former A's pitcher brings to the game. He described him as a positive guy who doesn't over-analyze things. Joel also said McCatty has a philosophy of "If you're going to get beat, get beat with your best stuff."
Mike Rizzo described McCatty as an old school pitching coach who is going to bring a toughness to the staff.
McCatty said his philosophy is to attack and throw strikes. He admits he's old school but he simply expects his players to go right at hitters. He wants them to have a strong mental approach to the game, and that can be just as important as the physical aspect. The mental approach involves trusting your stuff and that's something these young pitchers need to do more of.
I also heard McCatty has a great sense of humor, and hey, he worked as a baseball broadcaster for a while so he must be personable!

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is responding forcefully after incidents in which employees crossed out "Black Lives Matter" and wrote "All Lives Matter" on the walls of the company's Menlo Park, Calif., campus.
Facebook, whose staff is 2% black, is investigating the racially charged incidents in which the movement's slogan was defaced. Those actions have been a "deeply hurtful and tiresome experience for the black community," Zuckerberg said in an internal post obtained by Gizmodo.
Facebook declined to comment.
"We've never had rules around what people can write on our walls," said Zuckerberg in the post. "We expect everybody to treat each other with respect."

Last month, the United States Preventive Service Task Force issued a series of recommendations regarding yearly mammograms for women. Flying in the face of several decades of established medical advice, the task force recommended that women under the age of 50 should no longer get mammograms. They also advised against annual mammograms for those over 50 and warned that women should no longer conduct self-examinations for breast cancer.
Like so many of you, I was shocked to learn of this drastic shift in policy and worried about protecting the ability of women to access mammograms. In order to prevent these recommendations from being implemented, I introduced legislation to amend the Senate health care bill.
Each year, tens of thousands of women die from breast cancer. Early detection is the best tool we have to prevent the loss of life, and countless women survive breast cancer because an annual exam, or a self-exam, caught this disease early enough to be treated successfully. That's precisely the reason that women have been taught to get annual mammograms and to conduct self-examinations.
I held a roundtable in Baton Rouge on this very topic last month and heard from a number of survivors who credited annual mammograms for the early detection of their breast cancer, yet this task force called upon health care providers to decrease those screenings. Understandably, the recommendations of the USPSTF generated significant anger among the American people, and there was a lot of talk in Congress about taking steps to correct this situation.
Several members, including U.S. Sen. Barbara Mikulski (D-MD) and some of my Republican colleagues, filed amendments to the U.S. Senate's health care bill to address this issue. Unfortunately, none of the other amendments proposed would have, in fact, corrected this situation. And so, this week, I filed an amendment to prevent these recommendations from restricting mammograms for women.
My amendment was adopted by the Senate and will keep the current standing recommendations in place and set aside those issued in November. This is an important victory for women's health but also for walking back the influence of government-task force recommendations that seem to be based more on cost cutting and less on what is the best quality medicine.
Breast cancer affects the lives of so many families across the United States every year. As a child, my own wife Wendy lost her mother to this disease, and it's so important that we do all we can to prevent this sort of tragedy from striking other families. The best way to do that is through early detection and prevention, and I'm thankful that the Senate chose to agree with me on this important issue.
I am interested in hearing your thoughts on this and other issues. Please contact me with your ideas at any of my state offices or in my Washington office by mail at U.S. Senator David Vitter, U.S. Senate, 516 Hart Senate Office Building, Washington, D.C. 20510, or by phone at 202-224-4623.

At the beginning of May, I'm surprising my spouse with an anniversary trip to his favorite part of the country...and our last night will be in Minneapolis, staying on Nicollet Island. I'm looking for a very special place for dinner...romantic...perhaps with a view of the city and/or the river. We will want to take a carriage ride after dinner, and will need to be back to our hotel for that, so don't want to go too far from there, if possible.
Money not too much of an object...hubby doesn't drink, I might have a glass of wine...total can be around $250 if need be. But certainly open to a bargain!
I really want to end our trip with something memorable...knock our socks off!
Thanks for your help...

My Sister's Socks
I just finished this pair of socks for my sister. I hope they'll fit her; I'd used this lace pattern for a shawl before, but not for socks, and it doesn't have as much give as it needs. It's really pretty, but I won't use it again for socks. I can get them on, but only with a lot of tugging. They're comfy once they're on, though. If Liz can't get them on, she'll send them back to me and I'll make another pair for her -- in a stretchier pattern -- as I still have enough of this yarn.
In fiddle news, I can't remember if I've mentioned here that Felicity's now hanging on my wall. This means I can keep the shoulder rest on, which generally makes it much easier to grab her and start practicing (no opening the case, no assembly, etc.). I'm learning a reel and practicing different bowing techniques for a jig. I'm also trying to write a lament for my stepmother -- who helped introduce me to Irish traditional music, and who played the cello in her youth -- but so far, it just sounds like a really dorky exercise.
Charlene's threatening to have a recital for her students. I told her I'd come only if I didn't have to play; she rolled her eyes. I then amended that to say that I'd come if I could play "Mary Had A Little Lamb," still the only tune I feel confident playing in public. She rolled her eyes again, but told me I could play whatever I wanted. Gary's plugging for "Simple Gifts" or "April Waltz."
I play much better when I'm practicing then when I have to play in front of anybody, including Charlene. Knowing that someone else is listening makes me get all tense and rushed and paralyzed. I'm very comfortable with public speaking, but not with public fiddling. Maybe I can record myself playing and play the recording at the recital? If it happens? Which I still hope it won't?

Making music together is not about being perfect. It's about sharing a gift, a part of yourself, with the circle around you.ReplyDelete
If your fear or your conviction that you have nothing worth giving makes you choose to deny the gift, your circle will be the poorer.
Because every gift has value, and every person in the circle is waiting for that gift.

text: Project Description Located on a long pie-shaped lot facing west over a river, the Sandbar Residence gets its name from the long shoreline and shallow sandbar that is exposed at low tide. The owners come from a Hindu cultural tradition and asked that the plan of the home incorporate traditional Vaastu design principles. The design respects recommended locations for specific rooms while also incorporating traditional programmatic elements and materials, such as a puja (prayer) room, niches for statues of deities, and travertine flooring. The owners' desire to capture exceptional west-facing views was satisfied with large expanses of west-facing glass, which had to be balanced with the challenge of heat gain from the intense late afternoon sun at the low horizon line. On the western façade of the home, care was taken to recess the glass plane behind deep overhangs and screen porches and under canopies. This architectural "stepping," combined with an integrated shading system at the glazed surfaces, provides exceptional transparency on the western façade while controlling for glare and heat gain in the afternoons. The home employs several strategies, including an east-facing and a west-facing outdoor terrace connected by a large deck, that allow the owners to enjoy outdoor living spaces and views throughout the day. The owners were interested in a spatially modern home on the interior and wanted the exterior of the home to reflect the patterns, materials, and forms of the coastal shingle types found throughout rural seaside Rhode Island. The architecture borrows heavily from local and regional precedent to inform the overall form, massing, and details - resulting in an architecture that is both fresh and clearly connected to its neighbors.

Posted on 07/22/2012 1:13:44 PM PDT by Ernest_at_the_Beach
An improvement in the makeup of solar cells generates electricity while maintaining a 70% transparency, making it adaptable to homes and businesses to reduce energy costs. The polymer solar cell is light, flexible and cheap to produce. If this goes into mass production, it could spell the end of unsightly bulky roof mounted solar panels.
"These results open the potential for visibly transparent polymer solar cells as add-on components of portable electronics, smart windows and building-integrated photovoltaics and in other applications"
UCLA researchers create highly transparent solar cells for windows that generate electricity
Thanks for posting the article.
I found that the link to the 'cell' provided much more info, so I thought (if you don't mind), I would provide it directly.
UCLA researchers create highly transparent solar cells for windows that generate electricity
The UCLA team describes a new kind of polymer solar cell (PSC) that produces energy by absorbing mainly infrared light, not visible light, making the cells nearly 70% transparent to the human eye. They made the device from a photoactive plastic that converts infrared light into an electrical current.
So... they could make sunglasses out of them, which could power your personal devices.
It's ALL in the numbers. If these cells have lousy efficiency and only a few hours a day of sunlight, they still may be the greatest thing since sliced bread, but they're not going to do too well in the REAL WORLD.
Looks like a lot less work/$$$ to install! - and longer 'shelf-life?"
increasing efficiency would be more valuable than increasing transparency
I remember about some guy inventing a car that ran on water, but I haven't seen one sold yet.
I will believe this when I see it.
Meantime I am sure Obama will send them a research check
Could make a difference.
This is nothing new to me. I have known about them for a couple of years now. The problems I saw from the research I did at the time that they were not very efficient. It took about three times the surface area to produce the same amount of power as typical panels. But like most things I learned about solar power, it is not the silver bullet for energy but an alternative for particular remote applications where running a power cord was not feasible.
Bigger glasses....more devices...
you can combine this sort of device with the spray on batteries just announced and there you go!
just like obama's college records, they are transparent (meaning we can't see them).
When it comes to efficiency (4%) they're pretty low on the totem pole. The latest solar panels can yield 17%. The price would have to be substantially lower for it to compete.
The problem with solar is that the installation cost is so high. Even if the solar panels were free, all the remaining electrical equipment, installation hardware and labor would still make it more expensive than conventional.
To cut down on these type of costs they have to design them into the house and build the house with them. Also, an additional $20K to a house that costs a couple of hundred thousands isn't that much and you can get it financed over thirty years and you'll have free electricity.
I don't understand why more builders aren't doing this.
Battery storage, capacity and life cycle. The cost is still prohibitive plus the proper ventilated storage design within the house along with a climate controlled environment to keep them operating efficiently.

The Hip Hop Hoodíos (from Spanish judíos = Jews) are an American multilingal alternative rock and hip hop band. They are composed of Josué Noriega (born Josh Norek), Abraham Vélez, and Federico Fong (former member of La Barranca, Jaguares and Caifanes). Their debut EP contains three songs based on different Latin styles ("Ocho Kandelikas" being co-written by Juan Manuel Caipo from Orixa) and rap music; and two more rap-oriented tracks, one of them ("Dicks & Noses") being a version of the Delinquent Habits' "The Kind", the other featuring Abraham Velez on acoustic guitar. The full-length Agua Pa' La Gente is a leap in production values, and features guest artists Frank London and Paul Shapiro. Even though the Hoodíos' approach is mostly humorous, unlike the 2 Live Jews their aim is clearly also to provide innovative music.

I've peppered this question around but no responses so far so I'll do it stand-alone and see what happens.
I have successfully monitored the SQL Server service (although I'm not sure which of the the four versions of the servcie name did the trick).
I would also like to monitor the Agent. We had a problem with it stopping and missing some important jobs.
So far no luck. I've tried a few versions of the servcie name but nothing has worked (I have a test server so I can stop the service at will).
Has anyone successfully done this?

Jan 29, 2009 at 11:10 UTC
Using SpiceWorks. As I say, works great for the SQL service itself. Just not the agent. On SW 3.5 now btw.
Jan 30, 2009 at 9:43 UTC
May I suggest you use Servers Alive - I have used it for years, and you can monitor more than just the services, but I use it for services, and it is great because you can send yourself a page when it is down, and then have it automatically restart, and then you get a confirmation that it started.
I also monitor machines that if someone shuts them down, I can sent it WOL to start them backup - it monitors disk space, web sites, etc.
Probably more info that you wanted, but that is what use.

Scott, did you ever find a way to monitor the SQL Backup Agent? using spiceworks? I've had mine shutdown for the second time, and am getting furious...
Feb 9, 2009 at 10:25 UTC
I don't think so though I haven't spent a lot of time on it. Our shutdowns were related, we think, to a bug in the 64bit version of SQL 2005 on the 64bit OS. Turns out SQL used more memory than it should have and when we limited it to 13gb (on a 16gb machine) we've had no more trouble.
I'll try to spend some time on it this week and see if any of the service names I've tried pop something up for me.
As above, it works for the SQL service itself so why wouldn't it work for the Agent -- just another service.
Feb 9, 2009 at 11:07 UTC
Interesting I set up a "Service Installation" Monitor
to check
and report if
"is stopped"
And it threw the error / alert on my spice homepage, but didn't send the email that I'd asked for...I'll look into why the email wasn't sent...

Escort Scotland is Scotland's Original Escort Website.
Escort Scotland is an adult website, so, before you enter, you must agree that you are an adult, consensually choosing to do so.
The island of Tiree is the most westerly island in the Inner Hebrides. It's located off of the western coast of Scotland in the Atlantic Ocean just southwest of the Isle of Coll. This low-lying island has very fertile land. This region experiences a high number of hours of sunshine during the late Spring and early summer. For this reason, it's called the "Hawaii of the North" and the "Sunshine Island."
This island is best known for the 1st century Dùn Mòr broch, the prehistoric carved Ringing Stone, and also for the birds of the Ceann a' Mhara headland. Its name is derived from Tir lodh which means 'land of the corn.' Its name refers to how the island provided the monastic community on the island of Iona, south-east of the island with grain. Feel the Scottish spirit, embrace the culture and its heritage by adding a sexy dose of pleasure. Book the exquisite company of gorgeous courtesans and enjoy joy.
Make the most of your time here by making some sexy history with an escort in Tiree. A saucy seductress is the perfect accomplice for any sexy caper. Explore a kinky fetish with her seductive services and book a dominatrix. Have an unforgettable experience with an erotic, exotic lady.
This island is known for its vernacular architecture. Keep on the lookout for 'blackhouses' and 'white houses' which still have their traditional thatched roof. These unique spotted houses only have their mortar painted white. It's an interesting feature typical only of this island.
The island is very popular for windsurfing. Book a class and learn how to windsurf at Suds Surf School or Wild Diamond Water Sports. The island hosts the Tiree Wave Classic, an exciting windsurfing National Championship that runs annually in August on the sensational 'Sunshine island!'
Rent a bike from Millhouse Cycles and pedal the around the island. If you'd rather get out on the water, then rent a kayak at Blackhouse Water sports. Enjoy a work out during the day. Then let a Tiree escort work you out later tonight or maybe you'd rather book a sensual massage for your sore muscles. An elite, discreet woman specializes in only pleasurable moments so let her shower you with them.

A lone U.S. Border Patrol agent was brutally attacked by an illegal alien in the Yuma Sector of Arizona, near the U.S.-Mexico border Thursday night.
The incident happened about 10 p.m. Thursday night, when the border patrol agent working alone detected three illegal aliens crossing the Colorado River and entering the U.S. The agent was in the process of arresting the three, when one of the illegals grabbed for his gun. As the agent protected his gun, the alien grabbed his radio instead, and started beating him on the head with it, then he grabbed the agent's steel baton and hit him with that as well.
Fearing for his life, the agent fired his gun and shot the illegal alien. Both the agent and the illegal were taken to the Yuma Regional Medical Center, where the illegal alien was declared dead, and the agent was treated for his wounds. The agent received multiple cuts and bruises to his head, face and torso, was diagnosed with a concussion, and received stitches for at least one wound. He was placed on administrative leave, in accordance with Border Patrol policy.
The illegal alien was not carrying identification, so his name and country of origin are unknown. The two other illegals were taken into custody, reported the Yuma Sun.

As a teacher of English I have seen that most of the students of English Literature cannot answer the questions on prose, poetry, novel and drama correctly, briefly and to the point, writing just what is wanted in the questions and avoiding unnecessary and irrelevant details. And as a result, they secure very poor marks in English, especially in test papers. I have, therefore, written this blog @ AD's English Literature to provide the students with model answers by reading which they will be able to find out the flaws in their answers and rectify them. Sorry, I'm too bold to say you wrong. Let's say here is an open space for discussions and shaking hands.
I have given model answers to all the specimen questions endorsed by the University Curriculum. In addition to these specimen questions, I have given many other models, both short-answer type and essay-type, on each piece of the text, with their model approaches.
I have spared no pains to make this AD's English Literature really useful to those for whom it is intended. I shall regard my labour amply rewarded if the students derive benefit from the blog and if it receives recognition from my comrades in profession.
The nature of the blog has been revised from time to time in consonance with the changes demanded by the new trends in English Literature as well as the new pattern of understanding the text to be set in English Literature Learning.
The text materials included in the syllabus of University have been fully explained in this blog to frame varieties of questions on each of the these items (Key Tags are included in bracket)—
Short Answer-type Questions: (History of English Literature ( Short Questions) ; A to Z (Objective Questions) ; Model Question ;Short Stories ; Literary Terms ; Key Facts )
Essay-type Questions: (History of English Literature ( Essay);literary essays ; Creative Writing )
Objective-type Questions: (History of English Literature ( Short Questions) ; A to Z (Objective Questions) ; Model Question ;Short Stories ; Literary Terms ; Key Facts )
Major Genre of Literature: (Poetry ;Drama ; Novel ; Essay ; Short Stories ; literary essays; Creative Writing )
Classifications by Age: (Modern Period ; Elizabethan Literature ;Victorian Period ; Romantic Period ;Criticism ; ;Neo-classical Age ; Old English Literature ; Age of Dryden ; Age of Milton ; The Revival of Learning (1450-1550) ;Middle English ;New Literature ;Transitional Period )
Exam Types: (UGC NET ; Central Teacher Eligibility Test (CTET) ;TEFL ; Promotional Reviews )
An Approach to the English Literature Learning has been consulted among the peers and students and the Sample Questions suggested by them have been duly considered in preparing the posts. Model answers to these questions have been given in such a way that they will meet the requirements of all categories of students. And a constant vigil and critiques on these topics has enlarged the perspectives.
Till now, in my humble way I have tried to analyze and explain the problems that the students of English Literature Learning have to face. Nowhere have I attempted to show any minute scholarship. I have simply given uncontroversial answers to the questions that a serious study of the topics gives rise to. I don't claim any originality. I am, in fact, aware, at every turn, of my debts and obligations to the standard critics of English Language Learning. I gratefully acknowledge the debt, which, I suppose, any writer on Literature must have to his predecessors. At times, I have, unconsciously though, recast much of the thought of others. I am, however, not fancied a researched article nor there any APA or MLA citations. I have freely used or adapted Internet materials. I also take the opportunity of recording my obligations to my readers, who has spared no pains to make this blog presentable by commenting as well as sharing.
Now, after few years of blogging AD's English Literature has earned a very favourable reception from the students and academics alike. With passing days more literary topics I wish to add to make the blog more comprehensive and up-to-date. I need to include some essays on general current English Literature topics as well as from modern era to make it useful to the students at undergraduate and post-graduate levels as well as to the candidates preparing for competitive examinations. But one constrain is 'Time'?
I hope that AD's English Literature will be of use to those who take avid interest in the literary problems, and aesthetic movements. It will be also rewarding to those who are interested in current creative writing.
Any constructive suggestion for further improvement of the blog will be thankfully received.

A double-dissolution election will likely cause short-term economic uncertainty, but confidence is tipped to bounce back.
Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull on Monday announced the recall of parliament from April 18 to pass laws on setting up a construction industry watchdog, raising the possibility of an early election on July 2 if the Senate fails to pass the bill.
He also brought the federal budget forward by a week to May 3, giving the government time to clear the decks for a double-dissolution election.
AMP chief economist Shane Oliver says the moves signal the start of an election campaign on May 11, from which time there could be a period of uncertainty, a dampening of consumer confidence, spending and business investment.
"It's going to a relatively long election campaign too. Rather than the usual five to six weeks, this will be over three months," Dr Oliver told AAP.
"It will add a longer period of uncertainty."
However, he doesn't expect the election to be a major inhibitor of economic growth over the medium to long term.
"There's a danger of overplaying the economic impact of this poll, because we were going to have one this year anyway," Dr Oliver added.
JP Morgan economist Sally Auld said the campaign could cause short-term uncertainty, but given recent changes to Senate rules it could build confidence in the medium term.
"Elections generally give another reason for firms to sit on their hands and do nothing," she told AAP.
"But potentially you could end up with a government that's much better able to enact meaningful reform further down the track."
Royal Bank of Canada's chief economist Su-Lin Ong said aside from the prospect of an unusually long election campaign of seven weeks, confidence could also be dented by the May 3 budget.
Ms Ong says businesses are unlikely to be happy if the budget is interpreted to be "tepid", laying limited groundwork for much-needed and bold policy reform.
Modest fiscal consolidation in the form of expected superannuation tax concessions and spending cuts are also likely to weigh on consumer confidence, she said.
Meanwhile, the Reserve Bank's monthly interest rate meetings may become a bit more complicated given the timing of the budget and possible double-dissolution election.
The new May 3 budget date coincides with the RBA's monthly rates meeting, with the central bank's scheduled June 7 meeting falling in the middle of the election campaign.
Ms Ong said while RBC doesn't expect the RBA to cut rates until the second half of 2016, it could lower the cash rate from a record low 2.0 per cent during May or June if the case for such a move strengthens materially in coming months.
"We remind readers of the 25 basis points hike that was delivered in the middle of the 2007 election campaign in early November of that year," she said.
The RBA lifted interest rates twice - by 0.25 percentage points each in August and November ahead of voters going to the polls on November 24.
The hikes sparked attacks on the Howard government's long-time claim that interest rates would be lower under the coalition.
