"Recent Admission for Gynaecology & Urology Procedures Boston Pilgrim Hospital"
About: Pilgrim Hospital / Gynaecology Pilgrim Hospital Gynaecology PE21 9QS Pilgrim Hospital / Urology Pilgrim Hospital Urology PE21 9QS
Posted by cla112e (as ),
In late June 2014, I was admitted to Boston Pilgrim Hosptial for planned gynaecology and urology procedures. Living in Lincolnshire, we hear so many negative and scary stories about Pilgrim Hospital that I wanted to share an honest and frank account of my experience, which in the main was good. I cannot help feeling that with some changes and attention to detail, I could be writing an entirely glowing report. I have been unfortunate to have suffered many health issues since 2007 and have experienced many doctors and hospitals to be able to compare my recent visit to.
I would be grateful if my feedback could be relayed to the relevant staff and departments, especially where praise and thanks are due.
To start with the positives:
My two consultants: Miss Noor (Gynaecology) and Mr Madhavan (Urology), I cannot find the words to use to express how fantastic both of these doctors are. From seeing them in outpatients where the options and procedures were discussed, in a friendly, professional and dignified way, they liaised with each other to enable me to have all of my procedures done together despite falling in to two different specialities. The day of the op they were reassuring, knowledgeable and could not have been more helpful. After my op they both ensured I was comfortable and understood what had happened etc. They took the time to answer my questions and I felt at ease asking the questions I had and not rushed in any way. I cannot express my gratitude enough and feel fortunate to have the knowledge and expertise of two such compassionate and professional consultants for my care. You would not find better consultants at any hospital.
Moving on to another consultant: Dr Edward Dichmont, the anesthetist responsible for ensuring my general anaesthetic was administered safely and effectively. He is again another excellent asset that Pilgrim Hospital has, he made me feel so at ease about what was happening, explained in detail what I was to expect and answered all of my questions. His "people skills" were exemplary; he ensured he knew everything he needed to regarding my medical history. His mannerisms and care in the anaesthetics room (along with the two nurses) ensured that what was an apprehensive experience was as comfortable as possible and pain free.
I will also briefly mention one of Miss Noor's team of doctors, sadly I do not remember her name but she is obviously learning from one of the best in their field as she too had a lovely caring personality and made my experience a positive one.
Moving on to the recovery room and my nurse (although I did have direct contact with 2 or 3 nurses), wow what can I say other than thank-you! You do an amazing job and quite obviously it is a vocation you enjoy, it is obviously a very confusing time when you are waking from the anaesthetic but you knew exactly what to say and do to reassure me. You ensured pain relief was administered quickly and it didn't matter how many blankets I needed to get warm you kept adding them! I can imagine that the recovery room staff can sometimes get over looked but they shouldn't! Everyone that I had contact with was beyond outstanding.
Moving on to the ward the nurses on M2 were lovely, caring and did their absolute best. I do feel for them though, I am unsure whether the time I was there they had normal staffing levels or whether they were low on staff for whatever reason. I wish to point out (strongly) that I have no issues with the nursing staff on M2 they were amazing and nothing was too much trouble, despite them being over stretched. You could quite easily see they were struggling and on more than one occasion I was apologised to for "forgetting" something; forgetting to get a replacement IV, forgetting to get a nasal tube for oxygen as my sats had dropped, etc. It wasn't because they didn't care, on the contrary they did, immensely, but there were too many of us needing their attention.
The new visiting hours are so much better!
This is where I start to move on to the not so positive experiences, which in themselves are not particularly serious and some may even think I am moaning unnecessarily. However, I do feel if things are not brought to the hospitals attention then improvements cannot be made:
I arrived at the Admissions unit at 7.30 am and was feeling very apprehensive and upset, it wasn't possible for my partner to stay with me, which I do understand. But I felt like I was just another patient or number. The level of compassion shown on the admission ward was of a different level to that experienced anywhere else, just a few kind words at that time would have made all of the difference. Instead it was two hours of feeling agitated and scared. It was obvious I was upset but no one felt the need to ask how I was feeling or if I had any questions. Thankfully my own consultants and anaesthetist were able to reassure me. The admissions unit is the first impression of the hospital that you get and for me it wasn't a particularly good one (sorry).
I also find it difficult to understand why the recovery room was over crowded. They were so full that a patient had to stay on their trolley in theatre until a space in recovery could be found, as apparently (from conversations I could hear) there were no beds on the wards patients were waiting to go to. The Matron had to be called. I don't understand how people can be taken down to theatre without an actual bed waiting for them when they come out.
My next issue is with the meals, I had my op on the Wed morning and for various reasons it was not until Thurs that I was allowed food. I had a small amount of toast for breakfast, other than this I had consumed no food for 36+ hours. When the lunches came, I had obviously not ordered anything and the auxillary/hca showed me what was on offer, the only "meal" suitable as such was a vegetarian chilli (I am vegetarian), sadly a chilli was not an option as I am currently unable to eat spicy foods. I explained this and was offered basically shrugged shoulders. I asked if I could have a cheese sandwich, having gone to look at the sandwiches she had she came back and said no there was only ham! I wasn't expecting a 3 course tailor made lunch but I did think that something like a jacket potato, sandwich or something similar could have been offered. I said I would just have to have the chocolate sponge and custard then. I ate a small amount of this, as it was far too sweet for my taste. When she collected the barely eaten bowl it was obvious that I had very little to eat but still she was unable or unprepared to offer an alternative. I was dizzy and light headed with low blood pressure; I am sure a meal of some description would have helped. I had to wait for my partner to visit to go and get me some lunch, surely this is not acceptable?
Overall, I would recommend Pilgrim Hospital, the staff were knowledgeable, courteous, caring and professional. The environment was clean and I felt safe. I hope that by finding additional finances by cutting back on needless expenses that staffing can be increased. On that point I will add I took my own medication in to hospital with me (as I was requested to do) but barely any of it was used, instead using your own supplies of the same drugs from your trolleys. If every patient brings their own meds in and uses them surely that will enable a small saving on the cost of your drugs bill? Just a thought : )
Thank you to everyone involved in my care. I hope I will not be an inpatient again for the considerable future, but if I am I hope all the staff are as great as the ones I have just had!

Sincere thanks for leaving us your positive comments & personal experience of our service and it is warmly received. As a team we are continually striving to improve the patient journey and value both positive and negative comments to help us grow as a team.
I am sorry that you received little help from nursing staff regarding your specific dietary needs, that is unacceptable and whilst I will share your experience with my nursing team I will ensure we learn from where we could have improved.

Dear cla112e
Thank you for taking time to bring your experience of a theatre episode to our attention. It is kind of you to say the things you do about me. I am constantly in the arena that is our admissions suite and agree with what you say about it being unsuitable for the task it has to do.
I have on previous occasions brought it to the attention of the hospital management and do hope that soon something will be done as I do feel it lets the hospital down. Thank you for your constructive input.

Dear cla112e
Thank you for your comments relating to the food.
You should have given the a choice of meal, and if the choice was not available then a meal could have been collected by the ward from the restaurant including jacket potatoes.
We do make sandwiches to request and a cheese sandwich could have easily been made to order.
The chocolate sponge by nature should have been sweet, I will visit a ward when the sponge is on menu next time to taste for myself.

Ghost crabs, also called sand crabs, are crabs of the genus Ocypode, common shore crabs in many countries. Ghost crabs dominate sandy shores in tropical and subtropical areas, replacing the sandhoppers that predominate in cooler areas. They breathe through gills, which they periodically wet with seawater.2 They must also return to the ocean to release their eggs, which develop into marine larvae
Adult ghost crabs dig deep burrows, comprising a long shaft with a chamber at the end, occasionally with a second entrance shaft. They remain in the burrow during the hottest part of the day, and throughout the coldest part of the winter.

File Of Life
The File of Life is simply a small information card that contains an individual's medical and surgical history, medications, allergies, physician as well as emergency contact information. The File of Life will help emergency responders to gather your medical data, easily access potentially life-saving information, maximize their time on scene, begin corrective treatment sooner, and help give you peace of mind during an emergency. The kit consists of a large red envelope with a magnetic strip, a large information sheet, a small pocket-size red envelope, a small information sheet, and a sticker.
Complete the information sheets to the best of your ability. Place the large information sheet in the large red envelope, and you may hang it from your refrigerator door. Emergency responders are trained to look in that location for File of Life packets. The small red envelope with the small information packet may be carried in your wallet or purse. Please affix the File of Life sticker to the main entry door of your residence so that emergency responders know that a File of Life is present in your home.
If using the file of life in a business setting, please put the sticker somewhere to indicate the location of the File of Life if it is not readily apparent. Please use a pencil when you fill in the medical data. Remember to keep your medical data up to date. Take the file with you to visit your doctor and pharmacy. Whenever there is a change in medication or dosage, be sure to write it on your cards.
If at any time you need to replace or update the information sheets, or require additional File of Life packets, please feel free to request them from us.
The File of Life is free for anyone!
What information do you need to provide?
All current prescription bottles
The name and phone numbers of your physician(s)

It's hard to believe that it's been almost seven years since a little game called World of Warcraft launched. Since then, it has continually gained momentum, forging a name for itself as, arguably, the king of MMOs. With expansions adding completely new worlds and most recently, completely overhauling the game's original content, the title has remained fresh – despite the fact that it's steadily aging.
Following the release of its most recent expansion, Cataclysm, many people feared that the game could be on its decline with – the simplification of gameplay mechanics splitting the player-base. Despite this, Blizzard has stated that the game isn't going anywhere. While it may be true that World of Warcraft still has quite a bit of life left in the tank, subscription numbers have started to decline in the past quarter, resting at 11.1 million.
This is far from a death omen for the game, but is still a significant decrease for the title. According to Blizzard President Mike Morhaime, speaking on a conference call during Activision/Blizzard's second quarter financial release:
"In terms of subscriber growth around the world, what I would say we have seen is that subscribership tends to be seasonal and driven by content updates and so as we are heading further away from an expansion launch, it's normal to seasoned declines where the team is currently working on our largest content update since Cataclysm and that will hit later this year."
While there is no doubt that a lull in content can lead to lower subscription numbers, with the release of the most recent content patch, "Rage Of The Firelands," there has not been a dramatic increase – as normally expected. World of Warcraft may still have numerous years left in its lifespan, but there is no denying that it's slowing down. With highly anticipated MMOs like The Old Republic, TERA and Guild Wars 2 on the horizon, it will be difficult for Blizzard to maintain World of Warcraft's momentum.
This doesn't mean that there will be a shortage of new content making its way to the MMO though. Morhaime has promised a content patch introducing new end-game dungeon and raid content is on its way – along with the rumored expansion, Mists Of Pandaria. As a fan-favorite race within the Warcraft mythos, the introduction of the Pandaren into World of Warcraft could provide a significant bump in subscribers.
On top of new content, Blizzard is still looking at new markets for the game. With the WoW's launch in Brazil coming later this year, it's likely that the company will continue to try to expand the game into new territories. Regardless, there is no denying that the venerable MMO is beginning to show its age. Even with the inclusion of new content, the introduction of newer, more refined MMOs have slowly been wearing away at the title. It may not be on its deathbed, but World of Warcraft is slowly beginning its decline after years of ruling at the top.
With their next big MMO venture, Titan making its way into view, it's only a matter of time before something comes along which can manage to overtake World of Warcraft as the king of MMOs.
Do you think that World Of Warcraft has worn out its welcome? Do any of the games ahead on the horizon stand any chance of overtaking its supremacy?

A Suggested Fix to Professional Sports Drafts
A frightening epidemic is sweeping through the lower ranks of the NBA. Its nature is so foul, its idea so impure that it has been assigned a super evil and scientific-sounding name that makes even the bravest of men quiver. Proposals are in place to try and rid the NBA of this heinous monster as quickly as possible. I'm talking, of course, about tanking…wait, really? Tanking?
Tanking, a word which feels like it naturally should be preceded by a hashtag, has been a hot topic of discussion among the NBA-minded recently. Many executives feel like it is eating away at the purity and high standards of the game – you know, more so than the inconsistency of violations called based on the players involved and the amount of time left in the game, player max contracts which encourage the construction of super teams (the public still isn't sure if they like super teams or not), Donald Sterling being an awful human but hanging around for so long before finally being kicked to the curb...
Personally, I have no problem with the current practice of tanking – as long as there is no Eight Men Out-ish game-throwing going down. The Philadelphia 76ers have been the poster children of this strategy most recently. Realizing that their team wasn't built for long-term success and committing to a complete rebuild for the future, here's what they've done:
- They've traded away "veteran" pieces with larger contracts who they had no realistic chance of resigning (such as Spencer Hawes, Evan Turner, etc.) to stockpile draft picks and young players in order to construct a team in a way they see fit.
- They've drafted players who most analysts believe have enormous future potential (Nerlens Noel, Joel Embiid, Dario Saric) although they could not / cannot play right away due to injury or being European believing that the team will be awful enough while those players heal / develop overseas to stockpile more high draft picks.
- They've marched a team on the floor led by Michael Carter-Williams and a rag-tag group of players knowing that their time is not now but perhaps a couple years down the road.
Here's what they haven't done:
- Intentionally lost / thrown individual games for the sake of losing.
Philadelphia is testing fan support with this plan of multiple seasons of poor play for the hope of good basketball down the road. The plan is based on unknown professional commodities overcoming serious injuries in some cases and living up to their sky-high projections. Moreover, the immediate goal of the plan is to be so bad that they'll be in a pool with a chance to earn the right to select the first teenager who may or may not be good at basketball compared to other professionals. Needless to say, this is a huge risk for the organization. But all the power to them if they feel like this is the best path to success.
As I referenced before, NBA executives and writers have proposed changes to the current draft system in an attempt to discourage tanking. The latest proposal "flattens out" the odds of being awarded the first pick with the hope that being the worst team in the league won't give anyone an "advantage" on draft lottery night. The potential issue here is creating more 2008 Chicago Bulls and 2014 Cleveland Cavs who each had 1.7% chances to score the first pick overall but did just that. Under the current lottery system, the worst team in the NBA has selected first in the following draft only twice out of 22 years making that approximately 9% success rate significantly less than the 25% odds awarded to them by the lottery system. One could argue that based on these numbers, the current system would do enough to discourage tanking.
The NFL bases their draft order solely on teams' records from the previous season. The shortcoming of this method is best illustrated by 2011 Colts who selected first in 2012. Indianapolis enjoyed annual success and trips to the post-season under the quarterbacking of Peyton Manning. But when a neck injury forced him to sit out the entire 2011 season, the Colts were terrible enough to secure the first pick in the draft headlined by Andrew Luck – the quarterback who most called the next Peyton Manning. After those poor Colts fans endured one awful season of football, they've been back to the playoffs each of the two seasons since. Clearly I don't see the NFL draft as the perfect model (especially as a bitter Browns fan who has never seen one Peyton Manning throw for us, let alone two).
For every one team whose goal it is to replicate Major League's Rachel Phelps's strategy (albeit without sacrificing attendance), there are probably four or five out there who try to win, but goshdarnit, just can't do it. The supposed proposal risks making a few "legitimately" bad teams suffer in order to punish the one team trying to perform poorly. League executives must take this into account when proposing any modification to the current system.
So if the NBA draft (and NFL draft for that matter) needs revised, why not try the following? Keep the split of playoff vs. non-playoff teams like the NBA has in its lottery. If a team has been in the playoffs during the preceding season, it is not eligible to draft in front of the non-playoff teams (except in the case of trades). For all the non-playoff teams, take each one's cumulative record over the previous two or three seasons; then, order those records from worst-to-best allowing the team that has been bad the longest to draft first. This would eliminate teams with an outlier sucktastic year from selecting first as soon as they get to the suck party (wait your turn, Colts!). It would also make it more difficult for the 2008 Bulls and 2014 Cavs to select ahead of some more "deserving" teams. Sure, it may not discourage tanking like the 76ers are committed to, but it would force teams to commit to being terrible for a longer period of time and deal with the ire and pressure from fans looking for success during that planned down swing.
Again, I don't necessarily have a problem with tanking as long as games aren't being thrown. Maybe I'm naïve, but I don't see tanking as a commitment to losing; rather, I see it as a commitment to "growing pains" and a process that allows young, inexperienced pieces to develop void of unrealistic expectations. If any league tries to restructure their draft process to discourage such practices, it needs to be careful not to construct a system that allows the rich to get richer and let non-tanking losers slip through the cracks.

I'm a senior. My high school has over 1600 kids. I've NEVER been asked to a homecoming or prom (there's been 7 school dances so far & I've always gone with friends). I'm a little shy but I'm nice. And I'm Not shy to the point where I don't talk to any boys. I'm just not really friends with guys.
***I hear that guys ask girls they don't know that well to school dances all the time so why don't I ever get asked?***
Have you seen girls that are around my physical attractiveness level be asked to prom? My friends always get asked by at least one guy to each school dance. I wonder if the reason I've never been asked to a dance or asked out by a guy in general is because I'm not pretty enough. Please be honest!

You are slightly above average in my opinion. But that means that you shoudnt expect insanely hot guys to ask you out, expect guys that are also slightly above average. If you have been turning down guys, the only thing you can do is lower your standards. If NO guys have asked you out, its probably because the only guys that are 'on your level' are too insecure to ask a girl out. Next time you see an average to slightly above average guy sitting alone with nobody to talk to, go introduce yourself to him. Make sure you smile a lot and makes yourself as least intimidating as you can be. Be flirtatious and make it obvious that you ate into him. Give him your number and talk for a couple of days. If he doesn't ask you out after a couple of days of talking, ask him out. Keep your head up, be confident, if you want someone go for him!22|00|0
Well I don't like any guys. And no I wouldn't turn down any guys. I can't force myself to like someone like you said. See random guy. Introduce myself and make it obvious im into him. I can't do that if Im not interested in that guy in the first place.
- Show AllShow Less
80% of the guys that are confident enough ask. Not 80% of ALL guys. And about 50 out of 80% o those guys, will only ask after the girl gives crystal clear signs of liking them. Most guys are just to shy to do it.
What do you mean? I meant 80% of all guys ask a girl to prom. The rest don't ask girls.

Interesting discussion. >>I think we should seriously look at joining efforts with open-source Database engine projects I posted some initial dabblings here with a couple of the databases on your list :http://markmail.org/message/3bu5klzzc5i6uhl7 but this is not really a scalable solution (which is what Jason and others need) >>for example joins are not possible using SOLR). It's largely *because* Lucene doesn't do joins that it can be made to scale out. I've replaced two large-scale database systems this year with distributed Lucene solutions because this scale-out architecture provided significantly better performance. These were "semi-structured" systems too. Lucene's comparitively simplistic data model/query model is both a weakness and a strength in this regard. Cheers, Mark.

Figurative language in songs.
By Guadalupe Mayorga Castanon
In one direction's "Story of my life" Zayn say's
"But baby running after you is like chasing the clouds"
That is simile. It is describing that its hard to get the girl. In this case One Direction is explaining what impact this person is having on them.
In the song "Titanium" the singer Sia say's
" I'm bulletproof " that is a metaphor because when she say's she is bulletproof she is stating that words and actions do not hurt her.
"Knock You Down"
by Keri Hilson
In this song Kanye west says
"You see the hate that they servin' on a platter So what we gonna have,

When your Lexus GS450h left the factory, it was destined for a person with discerning taste who values appealing looks in their automobile. The vehicle in your driveway is head and shoulders above the rest when it comes to all the cars, trucks, and SUVs in today's marketplace. Lexus vehicle enthusiasts have grown accustomed to a certain level of sporty handling when driving their GS450h around town. You picked your GS450h because its sporty handling and Japanese engineering agreed with your nature; so why would you be okay with second best when it comes to superior quality auto parts?
Ever since the 1950s, cars and trucks have been built with either standard or optional climate control systems. The air conditioning uses a refrigerant called R134a to fuel a thermal reaction that emits cold air, and the A/C condenser on your Lexus GS450h acts like a radiator (it also looks like one) by cooling the refrigerant after it leaves the compressor, and then sends it to the drier and expansion valve. You can locate your Lexus GS450h A/C condenser sitting right in front of your radiator, as that is the easiest place to soak up air while your car is driving. If you notice the A/C condenser is leaking, then you will likely notice your air conditioning blowing lukewarm air as a result of the lack of refrigerant.
When your Lexus requires a top quality replacement A/C Condenser, there's no need to trust any store other than the authority, Car Parts Discount. Procuring new Lexus parts from www.carpartsdiscount.com means you are taking advantage of the highest quality original and aftermarket replacement GS450h parts on the internet. Given all the trouble that can be involved with fixing broken parts on your car or truck, let www.carpartsdiscount.com be the number one store you go to make purchasing it easy. All the Lexus GS450h A/C Condenser parts on this page will fit vehicles made in 2015, 2014, 2013. Choose your year below to refine your search.

With friends and loved ones,I prefer to talk face to face or on the phone if possible.I usually only use text messages when my clients or I need to change appointment timings.Text messages can cause miscommunication and experts say that too much texting have weakened the social skills of a lot of young people to communicate face to face with others.I don't want to lose that skill since it is vital to good relationships with others.On the average,I send about 3-5 messages a day due to work.
Ugh I hate texting, I want to here your voice!
I'd say like at least 20 texts a week, but then I'd be lying, it's even less than that.
less than 10. I mostly use text messages when I am meeting someone somewhere and only need to say something short.
On average, less than 10. The only contacts I have in my phone right now are my sister and parents. I don't have many close friends right now. Even if I were to text them, they have busy schedules, so it would be pointless.
I think maybe once a month it'd be more than 10. maybe a few times a week, none. on average, 1-3 I guess
Regular texts? or Whatsapp? Regular, I'd say 3 or 4.
Whatsapp? Over 9000!
Maybe 20 on the average day. When I get in touch with old friends we have whole conversations.
More than I should.
around 10-20 depends who I'm talking to and during what occasion
I send more than fifty, and they are mostly to my boyfriend.
I only text the "important" people, otherwise I find it boring/pointless & forget about it.
I don't really like to text at all , so probs 0 somedays and 6 on others.
For me, it really depends. Sometimes I don't send any in a day, but if something happens of if I'm making plans with my friends, it can be up to 20 in a day... I try not to text too much, I always feel like I'm annoying people.
I am not much of a texter. I am usually doing something with my hands so, I really can't use it to text.
anywhere from 50-100 every day to my boyfriend. Lol We can't see each other every day so we text a lot, pretty much all day.
wouldnt it be better to just call lol
No. I can't do other things if I'm talking on the phone. Sometimes we're both at work so we just text.
Less than 5 I use to send more when I was younger
More than 50 - mostly to my boyfriend :)
Right now I send from 15-over 50 it all depends on the day. About a year back I could send about 500 in three days... :P Extreme? I know
Like 5 every 2 weeks lol I'm 18 and I barely use my cell phone . It's basically used as a clock.
None, I haven't gotten a new phone since I lost mine about 6 months ago. It's kind of a relieve to not be constantly absorbed (idk if that's the right word) by my phone.
Well, last bill said I sent 16,000 for the month so idunna around 535 a day
less than 10
i really hate texting
Depends on the day. But I rarely write more than 10 text messages per day.
More then 50
Id say on average 2
0. Phone fell in the toilet haha
I'm 16. I text a lot.
if I was going out with a guy who sent me over 10 texts a day I would hate it, just ring and get it across, texting is so impersonal, for a guy I'm dating: maybe 4/5 texts a day.
< 10
Less than ten a day. sometimes I don't text message at all.
Back in my teen prime.. I'd easily send 50-120 a day. Now I'm like maybe 10 a week.
OK I admit, I m addicting to txting!
I only text to people who don't have a smartphone, so that's a few a week. I use WhatsApp mainly (as does the rest of the country) I engage in a few group conversations and personal conversations, so it's hard to tell as it's basically IMing.
less than ten. texting isn't the only way to ping a message.
less than 10 a day
More than 50. Usually 2,500-3,000 a month.
more than 50? HOW SAD AND PATHETIC... get a life.
I only really text one person (my crush), when we text, it's often between 30 and 40 (and sometimes more), but we don't text every day. And I don't text other people often
I send maybe 2 or 3 a week.

The play
Midway through the second period, with Edmonton leading 1-0, the Oilers hem the Carolina Hurricanes in their own end, buzzing around goaltender Cam Ward. A wild scramble ensues. The puck is loose. Carolina defenseman Niclas Wallin ends up on his knees in the crease and, after a moment, puts his hand over the puck and scoops it into the corner.
The call
Referee Mick McGeough, down low watching the scramble, immediately gestures to center ice, signaling a penalty shot. He rules that Wallin closed his hand on the puck in the crease.
The shooter
Given the choice of all the players on the ice, Edmonton coach Craig MacTavish taps Chris Pronger, who takes his first penalty shot ever.
The goal
Head up like a real sniper, Pronger takes a slight angle down the left side and rips a wicked wrist shot to the short side to give the Oilers a 2-0 lead.
"The guy's got a tremendous release, I'll tell you that. He got it off very quick and made a great shot," Ward says.
Says Pronger: "Just had a couple of things I wanted to do and kind of opened up, fortunate enough to go in."
The reaction
Several Hurricanes players said they didn't think replays showed Wallin actually closing his hand on the puck. Carolina coach Peter Laviolette said he couldn't tell for sure. "I don't know if he just moved it out or if he had it under his hands," he said.
The history
The goal was the first penalty shot goal in Stanley Cup finals history in nine attempts. The last Oilers player to take a penalty shot in the finals was Petr Klima, who was stymied by Boston's Reggie Lemelin on May 18, 1990.

Voluminous venom spewed
Too much venom will kill the snake. Mona Charen, the spitting cobra of the radical right, should be careful. She, along with many other right-wing nuts, has been trying to drown President Obama in a torrent of spiteful criticism for five years. Yet, he lives on.
Although he is far from perfect, he is much better than the guy the Supreme Court appointed in 2000. Since his election, by popular and electoral vote, Obama has endured a constant barrage of lies: Donald Trump's birther baloney, Sarah Palin's death panel scare tactics, accusations of him being a Muslim; an honorary member of al-Qaida. And the latest desperate attempt to smear him and, possibly, our next president: Benghazi.
The right wing is carelessly spitting venom, and it is getting all over their faces. We, the people, have noticed.

The Russians hate Obama so much they have named a chocolate bar after him.
"Obamka" bars (the -ka ending is a diminutive) are chocolate coated vanilla bars and feature an African boy with an earring on them.
The makers of the product said that the 'Little Obama' bars aren't meant to be a slight at the U.S. President but simply meant to appeal to children.
A US official who spoke to Reuters, though, made it clear that people should not be fooled. The Russians don't like Obama or America and "regularly" show it in ways like this.
"While I haven't seen this particular product for sale, we are disappointed by the media-driven anti-Americanism that has become so prevalent in Russia over the past few years, particularly when it takes on a discriminatory or racist bent," the unnamed official said.
Reuters also reports that things are so bad, there is one cafe in Siberia that uses Obama-printed toilet paper.

Auto enthusiasts appreciate the a reliable name built into each Volvo, and know that only the highest quality replacement C70 parts will suffice when your car or truck needs fixing. Make no mistake, you bought your C70 because you understood you would be getting best-in-class service and dependability both rolled up into one car, truck, or SUV. Volvo automobile enthusiasts have grown accustomed to a certain level of sporty handling when driving their C70 around town. Anyone who operates a Volvo knows that when it comes to repairing their vehicle only the most superior replacement parts will do.
One of the keys to maintaining an operational engine and full use of your accessories is keeping an eye on your Volvo C70 drive belt tensioner. Your engine transfers power from the crankshaft to these accessories through the drive belts. But since they are traveling at such high speeds, the belt tensioners ensure the drive belts maintain a good grip on the pulley or else they will fly off; potentially leaving your car or truck without the use of its power steering, water pump, or more. Volvo C70 engines should have their belt tensioners inspected and adjusted in order to ensure proper operation of the serpentine or drive belts.
Don't let a broken Drive Belt Tensioner & Pulley bring about the demise of your car, truck, or SUV, and don't gamble with its condition by installing anything but the best replacement parts. Make all your future car parts purchases at carpartsdiscount.com and realize incredible savings on all your upcoming repairs. Bring your C70 back to life with the best replacement parts from the experts at Car Parts Discount.

GMA Selects Accenture, IRI to Study Product Lifecycle Management Processes
An effective PLM strategy promotes company performance.
The Grocery Manufacturers Association said yesterday it has chosen Accenture and Information Resources Inc. (IRI) to conduct an in-depth study of successful product lifecycle management (PLM) processes as a way of driving brand innovation and growth.
The study, sponsored by the GMA Information Systems Committee, will look at the entire lifecycle of a product, from conception through discontinuation, and the importance of working across departmental lines in winning PLM strategies.
"In an economy that is undergoing profound transformation, where all manufacturers must revisit every business approach, it is critically important to focus on what consumers will buy and why," noted GMA president and CEO Pamela Bailey. "An effective PLM strategy enhances company performance by ensuring that CPG makers are delivering the products consumers want and scaling back or retiring items that are no longer in demand."
Accenture and IRI will conduct both online surveys and in-depth interviews with experts in consumer and market research, research and development, manufacturing, marketing, IT and category management. The study will additionally address what new product introductions were most successful in recent years and why. Based on analysis of this information and the collective insights of Accenture and IRI, the final report will recommend successful PLM practices and cross-functional collaboration models especially for the CPG industry. The study will also identify solution-based roles that IT professionals can play in the successful conception, launch, development and completion of the overall PLM process.
"The IT function is an essential cog in the PLM machine in that many of the tools and services IT departments provide help facilitate the process," explained Gerrit Schutte, CIO and SVP of ConAgra Foods and GMA IS Committee member. "If we can more fully understand the collaborative role all departments play in PLM, we will be better equipped to serve them."
The report, known tentatively as "CPG Innovation and Growth: The Impact of Product Lifecycle Management Processes and Information Technology Strategies," is scheduled for release in March 2009, with the major findings slated for presentation at the GMA Information Systems/Logistics Distribution Conference, which will be held this year in April in Miami.

The idea of the human body having "toxins" or "mucoid plaque" built up in the body to be flushed out is urban legend and any prposed remedy is psudoscience at best, and fraud at worst.
The body naturally "flushes out" through excreting, and living a generally healthy lifestyle is the only way to maintain this process. To have the body naturally maintain this process naturally, one should only drink plenty of water and eat foods high in dietary fiber.
Eating a lot of fruit is a good way to acquire fibre and keeps you regular.

COVER STORY: Doing what comes naturally
A far-reaching philosophy of interdependence has made Whole Foods a lifestyle brand for its upscale shoppers.
When Whole Foods Market became the first grocer in the country to have its retail operations certified organic, the achievement marked the fulfillment of what would be a tall order for almost any supermarket company. But Austin, Texas-based Whole Foods was just doing what comes naturally.
The certification, awarded in June, is simply the culmination of the company's persistent drive to deliver the best food in the best way possible to its customers. Like everything else Whole Foods does, it's just another way of serving shoppers. "The retail certification is something we wanted to do to assure our customers that the organic integrity is being maintained," says Margaret Wittenberg, v.p. of marketing and public affairs. "In fact, we maintain organic integrity far beyond what the National Organic Standards actually require."
To gain retail certification, a grocer must, among other things, verify current organic certification status of products, maintain extensive records that demonstrate the audit trail of organic product is intact, ensure organic products are protected from commingling with conventional products and from contamination by prohibited materials, thoroughly train employees in the handling practices of organic products, and open facilities to on-site inspections. So far, Whole Foods is the only one that's been able to do all that.
With revenues nearly doubling since 1998 to $2.7 billion for fiscal 2002 during a time when consumers are flocking to dollar stores and price clubs, Whole Foods is doing something right. Although things have slowed down a bit during the past year—with year-over-year comparable store sales growth of 7 percent for the fiscal year ended last September, compared with 10.1 percent for the same period last year—that wasn't unexpected.
Chief executive John Mackey predicted it in his 2002 annual report. "We do not expect to sustain the excellent 10 percent comps we saw this year," he said in his letter to stakeholders. "The Harry's stores [acquired in August 2001] will have a negative impact as they enter our comp base at the beginning of the year, and we will be up against very tough comparisons."
But there's wide agreement the company has a strong future. According to the The Natural Food Merchandiser's 22nd Annual Market Overview, published in its June issue, American shoppers spent approximately $36.4 billion on natural and organic products in 2002. "As more data and educational resources become available on organic products, the industry will continue to gain credibility," says Ellen Holton, director of marketing for Quality Assurance International, the San Diego, Calif. independent third-party certifier of organic food systems. Quality Assurance, whose certification is federally recognized, has seen retailer interest jump since it certified Whole Foods. "There has also been an increase in the number of suppliers that are looking to be certified."
Add to this the influence of consumer demographic trends such as the aging of baby boomers and the increasing senior population, and the trend toward fitness and well-being—and yoga and pilates—and there is a strong foundation for Whole Foods to build on.
And Whole Foods has addressed this market well. "It's a lifestyle brand. People go there because they're interested in living healthy," says Carole Buyers, an analyst with RBC Capital Markets.
And they're willing to pay more for that lifestyle. Organic foods typically carry heftier price tags than the conventional versions. Healthy living and eating well are more important to Whole Foods customers than cost. Because this market is mostly concentrated in metropolitan areas, that's where the company operates its stores. More than 95 percent of them are in the top 50 metropolitan markets. With 20 of those markets still untapped, there's a lot of room for growth. Whole Foods expects to grow the company to 200 stores and $4 billion in sales by 2004. The current store count is 145.
What makes the company so successful in a time when most grocers are struggling is difficult to pinpoint, as it comes from many sources. Yes, there are the unique store formats, the huge selection of produce, the meat departments featuring prime cuts of aged beef, the impeccably clean aisles, the big push toward sustainable resources, and top-notch customer service. Yet it's all of these working together that creates the all-around pleasing atmosphere in which to shop for food, according to Wittenberg.
Indeed, this is a case where the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
The Whole Foods philosophy is summed up in its vision statement, aptly titled Whole Foods Declaration of Interdependence:
"Our motto—Whole Foods, Whole People, Whole Planet—emphasizes that our vision reaches far beyond just being a food retailer. Our success in fulfilling our vision is measured by customer satisfaction, Team Member excellence and happiness, return on capital investment, improvement in the state of the environment, and local and larger community support."
It's this principle that serves as a guide for every product the company sells and every strategy it employs.
Whole Foods
Whole Foods Market is almost synonymous with "organic." As the first national food retailer invited to join the Agriculture Department's advisory board and a key member of the Organic Trade Association, the company played an integral role in the development of standards and hosted the announcement of the National Organic Standards in Washington.
Needless to say, organic products permeate its stores. Whole Foods believes that food in its purest state is the best-tasting as well as the most nutritious available, and whether by sourcing product nationally or locally, or preparing it in one of seven regional bake houses, four commissaries, or its own seafood processing facility, the chain goes out of its way to make sure that such foods are on hand.
Whole Foods Market is best known for is its perishables, which account for more than 60 percent of sales. As the average store size grows, Whole Foods continues to place a growing emphasis this segment, particularly produce, bakery, and prepared foods. The importance of perishables became particularly evident when the company acquired three Harry's Farmers Market perishables superstores. Based in Atlanta, the Harry's stores provide a platform for geographical expansion as well as intellectual capital. The stores average more than 60,000 square feet, with 75 percent of sales in perishables, and the company is known for its expertise in product procurement and running large produce, bakery, and seafood departments.
As soon as customers walk into a Whole Foods store, they're hit with a beautiful display of hand-stacked fresh produce, arranged meticulously and with striking contrast.
Whole Foods sources its produce both nationally and locally, and the chain's three produce inspectors log more than 100,000 miles per year going out into the fields in search of choice harvests. Both conventional and organic produce are available. The company works closely with local farmers, viewing itself as a partner with family farm sources. "We support local farmers and source their produce whenever we can," says marketing team leader Meredith Petran. "If produce is coming from a farm 25 miles away, shoppers know it's fresh. Plus, people like to take care of their own."
Such produce is identified with "Locally Grown" signs, and in many cases a mini-biography of the farmer is displayed. "This gives the shopper a personal relationship with the farmer providing the produce they're going to eat," Petran says.
Some locations feature an "Exotic Wall," where varieties of produce not found elsewhere are displayed. "That's the place where you find the celebrity chefs shopping," Petran says. "We'll feature 12 varieties of mushrooms in this section, for example."
The bakery section offers fresh hearth-baked breads made from unbleached, unbromated flour, including sandwich breads, French baguettes, and a variety of Italian-style focaccias. Pastries, gluten-free baked goods, and cookies and cakes are featured, as well.
In Whole Foods' specialty departments, customers always know they'll find something new and interesting, whether it's a line of Gouda cheese from Holland, Kalamata olives in brine, or a variety of beer and wine—including Vida Orgánica wines, of which Whole Foods is the exclusive U.S. distributor. Some locations have an Allegro Coffee Bar built into their specialty departments, offering a wide variety of gourmet beans and brewed drinks from the chain's coffee subsidiary in Boulder, Colo. "Our coffee buyers search coffee farms all over the world to pick the best beans," Petran says. "In addition, we've set records with the premiums we pay for coffee. This ensures that the farmers are able to pay and retain the best workers, invest in their farm, and stay in business."
During lunch and dinner hours, the prepared foods section is filled with hungry shoppers looking for healthful dishes ready to take home or back to the office.
For its meat department, Whole Foods seeks out natural meats from animals raised on wholesome grains and well water, instead of byproducts, hormones, and steroids. Most of the animals are raised in a free-range setting.
Whole Foods Market even has its own seafood facility and processing plant, to provide the freshest fish to its stores. Located on the waterfront in Gloucester, Mass., Pigeon Cove Seafood works with independent fishermen running small family businesses, and, as Allegro Coffee does with farmers, pays fishers a fair price for their catches. Buying fish from day-trip and short-trip boats means the fish are as fresh as possible.
Capitalizing on the strength of its brand, Whole Foods' private label offering, which started in 1991, has grown to encompass more than 400 products, including chocolate bars imported from Switzerland, apple butter made from one of the few small cider mills in Pennsylvania, organic pastas, and even an organic microbrewed beer—Lamar Street Ale, made from certified organic ingredients and brewed locally. "Organic is something that goes way beyond produce," Wittenberg says. "I think consumers initially get into organic through produce, then learn that it can incorporate other areas."
In 1998 the chain launched Whole Kids Organic, the country's first organic food product line developed just for kids, to provide them with safe, healthy food choices after they've moved beyond baby food. "The Whole Kids Organic line underscores our commitment to organic," Wittenberg says. "It helps the families and kids understand that organic is something that can really be incorporated into one's life, beginning at a very early age."
Whole Kids Organic products include a hot chocolate mix, applesauce, string cheese, fruit spreads, breakfast cereals, macaroni & cheese, and peanut butter, and are approved by children's taste panels.
The 365 Every Day Value line, which was launched in 1997, consists of commodity-type products that are purchased in a large volume, so the same low price can be maintained year-round. "We want to offer our customers a variety of price points," Petran says. "When consumers hear organic, they think it'll be expensive. We want to give them alternatives."
All of these offerings are not just arbitrarily thrown on the shelves, however. Whole Foods keeps close tabs on its customers through various means of in-store communication, which flows in both directions.
Each store has an ideas and requests bulletin board on which customers can post their comments. Requests are answered by phone, or posted on the board if the answer would benefit other shoppers, such as information that a product has become available. Because each supermarket is empowered to handle such requests, the result is a chain of stores with offerings and services unique to their locations. "Everything in a Whole Foods store is a reflection of the market around it," Wittenberg says.
Throughout the stores, customers will find pamphlets with information about all aspects of Whole Foods and its products and services. Topics run the gamut from "Irradiation and your food" to "How to use a drip coffee maker."
"These are the types of things that build a rapport between Whole Foods and its customers," Petran says. "It reinforces the view of us as a destination for our shoppers and makes their shopping a fun experience."
Whole People
Adding to this experience are the Whole Foods employees. The company has placed on Fortune magazine's 100 Best Places to Work list every year since the list's inception six years ago, and it's one of only 25 companies to do so. This year Whole Foods received its highest ranking, 32nd. It's the only national grocer on the list.
It's easy to see why Whole Foods made the list once again. One simply has to see the smiles on its employees' faces, or ask what their titles are. Regardless of which department they work in, they're all team members—customer service team member, front end team leader, store team leader. And if they're asked why they like working at Whole Foods so much, among the most common answers is that they are accepted for themselves. "We attract people with passion," Petran says. "It's a very creative, open atmosphere, where they can express themselves and be themselves."
Stores are organized into as many as 11 teams, each headed by a team leader. Each team is responsible for a different product category or aspect of store operations. Along with Whole Foods' regional framework, a decentralized approach to store operations is promoted, in which many of the merchandising and operating decisions are made by teams at the individual store level. "The team members feel they have a voice in the company," Petran says. "There's an open-door policy, and many leadership programs are available for team members looking to grow internally."
Still, the company is united under the Whole Foods philosophy and core values. "We have eight regions, but we're all tied together as far as who Whole Foods is and what we do," Wittenberg points out. "Each region is in a different part of the country. There are some things that work for one region and not another, but we have our core values and every region adheres to that."
Whole Planet
These communities include local neighborhoods and organizations, but they extend to the entire planet. The company gives a minimum of 5 percent of its profit each year to a variety of community and nonprofit organizations. "Each store is allotted a certain amount of money to use for donations," Petran says. "By supporting issues relevant to the community, the store builds a strong connection with people in the area."
Additionally, each full-time team member receives 20 hours per year in paid time off to work with qualified community service organizations. "This allows employees to choose something close to their hearts," Petran says. "On many occasions, however, team members join together to work on specific projects.
To help keep Mother Earth happy and healthy, Whole Foods maintains strict environmental practices, such as recycling, reusing, and reducing its waste and sustainable agriculture is strongly encouraged.
Whole Foods has taken action toward sustainable seafood, as well. Sustainable seafood comes from fishing practices that allow a depleted or threatened fish population to recover to healthy levels, and it prevents healthy fish populations from being depleted.
Recently, the company announced that it would fund the Marine Stewardship Council's (MSC) new initiative aimed at increasing the number of certified sustainable fisheries in the United States and throughout the Americas. Funded by a $225,000 grant over three years, the Whole Foods Market Americas Fisheries Initiative helped create a position to identify and certify more fisheries. The position of fisheries manager, Americas, was filled by Alaskan Kate Troll, who started work July 28. "Fisheries need someone dedicated to work with when they're trying to be certified," says MSC U.S. communications director Karen Tarica. "She'll be our point person with governments, research organizations, and environmental groups involved in the various projects."
"MSC has a terrific program that rewards fishermen who fish with the environment in mind, and the longevity and sustainability of the fish in mind," Wittenberg says.
Currently, seven fisheries have been certified under MSC's international program. Wild Alaska salmon was the first North American seafood species to earn the seal of approval from MSC, promoted by Whole Foods in its "Fish for our Future" coalition, which was formed last year The coalition is composed of the Alaska Seafood Marketing Institute, Chefs Collaborative, MSC, and World Wildlife Fund.
One can say that the "Whole" in Whole Foods, in addition to meaning wholesome, also refers to all parts of the business—and people, products, and planet—working together in unison. Part of its company description states: "We believe in a virtuous circle entwining the food chain, human beings, and Mother Earth: Each is reliant upon the others through a beautiful and delicate symbiosis."
Viewed in this light, it seems the future health of the company will depend not so much on the economy as on the health of the consumers who are part of it.

I hate it when your playing wow and you get the immature team that spams crap inside of an arena and when its over you tell them to piss off and you get a 24 hour suspension for it.
Why does the wow admins enforce language when someones mature language filter is turned off... I don't understand.

Better question. People still play WOW? lol
At about T8, I stopped remembering why I was playing. The journey to 50/60/70/80 was fun, but end game is still lacking for me. Same thing happened with Rift, and now SW:TOR. Call of Duty keeps me going, but obviously that's different.
The language filter issue you mentioned was one of the things I hated. Why have it if you aren't allowed to swear? Why can you not rip people off in a trade and not get suspended for it? It's a ROLE PLAYING game, and when I cant choose my role anymore it's not fun. I'm with you all the way on your suspension, it's bogus for sure.
Mar 9, 2012 at 9:56 UTC
How is swtor? I've been getting into SC2 lately, just get my arse handed to me to much.
I wouldn't mind trying out a new type of RP game

F#@* Censorship!
Mar 9, 2012 at 10:48 UTC
TOR is pretty cool. If you like WOW and like Star Wars, then you'll probably dig it. I like Star Wars, but I don't love it, and I'm plain sick of MMORPGs at the moment so I cancelled last month. It's a bit different than WOW, but not by much. My girlfriend is a huge star wars nerd, so she's really digging it.
Mar 9, 2012 at 10:53 UTC
Man that is ridiculous, the fact that other people can go in there and do much much worse, with no consequences, is absolutly insane.
SWTOR was meh...it was good for the story and I have heard that end game raiding was fun while it lasted but PvP was broken from the beginning, there is absolutely no ladder system. It is level 10-49 all fighting together, lower levels get a "bolster" buff that gives them stats as if they are the same as the highest person in the zone but you have none of the spells or abilities, and SWTOR is big on CC's and being able to break them.
Personally I'm just sticking with WoW for now, I will probably try GW2 when its released but there seems to be no replacement for WoW, I always go back.
Mar 9, 2012 at 11:01 UTC
Yeah it is quite bogus. I left them quite a nice message through their ticket system. They will love me when they finally get around to that one :)

B. Rules Related to "Chat" and Interaction With Other Users. Communicating in-game with other Users and Blizzard representatives, whether by text, voice or any other method, is an integral part of the Game and the Service and is referred to here as "Chat." When engaging in Chat, you may not:
(i) Transmit or post any content or language which, in the sole and absolute discretion of Blizzard, is deemed to be offensive, including without limitation content or language that is unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, hateful, sexually explicit, or racially, ethnically or otherwise objectionable, nor may you use a misspelling or an alternative spelling to circumvent the content and language restrictions listed above;
(ii) Carry out any action with a disruptive effect, such as intentionally causing the Chat screen to scroll faster than other users are able to read, or setting up macros with large amounts of text that, when used, can have a disruptive effect on the normal flow of Chat;
(iii) Disrupt the normal flow of dialogue in Chat or otherwise act in a manner that negatively affects other users including without limitation posting commercial solicitations and/or advertisements for goods and services available outside of the World of Warcraft universe;
(iv) Sending repeated unsolicited or unwelcome messages to a single user or repeatedly posting similar messages in a Chat area, including without limitation continuous advertisements to sell goods or services;
(v) Communicate or post any user's personal information in the Game, or on websites or forums related to the Game, except that a user may communicate his or her own personal information in a private message directed to a single user;
(vi) Harass, threaten, stalk, embarrass or cause distress, unwanted attention or discomfort to any user of the Game;
(vii) Participate in any action that, in the sole and absolute opinion of Blizzard, results or may result in an authorized user of the Game being "scammed" or defrauded out of gold, weapons, armor, or any other items that user has earned through authorized game play in the Game;
(viii) Communicate directly with players who are playing characters aligned with the opposite faction (e.g. Horde communicating with Alliance or vice versa); or
(ix) Impersonate any real person, including without limitation any "game master" or any other Blizzard agent or employee, nor may you communicate in the Game in any way designed to make others believe that your message constitutes a server message or was otherwise posted by any Blizzard agent or employee.
All in all to keep things short, two wrongs dont make a right. If you got a bann for telling them to "piss off" I'm sure they got the same for their nonsence as well. Although they implimented a filter, this is specifically in place for the younger croud. Inmy time I've played a few games with well to say the least a through filter and it really takes away from game play enjoy ability when you're trying to talk to people with quick shorthand and everything is blocked. Also you have to kjeep into the mentality that some words which others take offensivly vs how others feel about them can play a part too. Whats socially accepetable in some countries isnt acceptable here ect ect. and last but not least to top it off words with double manings are hard to filter as most chat reading programs cant understand things that well.

You could try Dekaron, but it's a soup sandwich at best.
Developed by GameHi, licensed to Acclaim and various other 3rd parties, then taken back in house after the agreements ran out, mismanaged and sold to Nexon, who discontinued the Asian servers (with 40ms to west coast) and moved everything to Eurotrash servers (600ms) which they promptly crashed hard enough that no one could log on for two days.
But it's better than Week of Weasels
Completely overrun by bots and gold sellers, but still manages to be kind of fun.
Look and feel is more adult than Washtub of Wombat's playskool look.
Pvp is....well, it's an rpg - not an fps.
The nice thing is that with the exception of Safety Zones (populated areas, mostly) you can pk people at will.
There are no ingame profanity bans, though griefing can still result in a ban in theory.
In practice, it's more like having an absentee landlord.
Wife still plays Dekaron, so I 'spose I'll still log in from time to time, but I've been playing more swtor the last couple of weeks than anything else.

One mobile unit to manage the records center AND shredding operation!
ASI Mobile® Makes It Easy As 1, 2, 3ASI has capitalized on today's scanning technology with the latest equipment from Symbol Technologies and Intermec, resulting in ASI Mobile. ASI Mobile runs on Microsoft® Pocket PC with SQL Server and .NET™ and has received its "Designed for Windows Mobile Certification" from Microsoft. ASI Mobile packs a powerful productivity punch with innovative tools that integrate, simplify and streamline daily operations.
One Unit – Three Programs
Not only does ASI Mobile contain the driver scanning application, it also houses Veri-Shred and Visual Corporate Keeper (VCK-SQL) scanning applications. Whether your driver is servicing a destruction bin, delivering a carton or file, or working in the warehouse, ASI Mobile provides one solution to successfully tackle all of your business requirements.
Cable-Free Connectivity
Communication from the scanner to the portable receipt printer is managed by Bluetooth wireless technology - no more cables to get in the way.
Digital Signature Capture
Customers sign their signatures directly on the scanner screen. This signature is downloaded from Driver Scanning to the work order in VCK-SQLor Veri-Shred and may be reproduced at any time by simply reprinting the work order.
Enhanced Error Trapping
By uploading the work orders to the scanner, you have the most advanced error trapping available.
- Load Verification – verify that all items being loaded onto the truck are also on the work orders for delivery.
- Scan Validation – point of delivery verification that items being delivered are on the work order for delivery.
Data Exchange
Allows for the wireless transfer of work orders and all associated delivery items from one scanner to another using Infrared technology.
Prefix Precision
Eliminate barcode headaches. ASI Mobile allows scanners to be warehouse specific by hardcoding warehouse prefixes to each applicable barcode.
No Battery? No Data Loss.
The Pocket PC uses two types of memory: volatile and non-volatile. All information in ASI Mobile is stored as non-volatile memory, meaning that it will not be lost even in the case of a hard reboot (reset) of the scanner.
VCK-SQL Warehouse Scanning
Manage warehouse activity with ease and accuracy with ASI Mobile's VCK-SQL warehouse scanning technology:
Scan Pattern Specific
The latest addition to VCK-SQL warehouse scanning is the option to select the pattern in which to scan, whether it be boxes or files. For boxes, you can select the standard pattern of location-box-location or scan in the new pattern of location-box-box. The file warehouse scanning provides the scanning options of standard box-file-box pattern or the new pattern of box-file-file.
Scan boxes in and out.
VCK-SQL warehouse scanning allows you to scan boxes into locations, boxes out
of locations, and scan boxes destroyed or permanently withdrawn. You have the option to scan a customer's box number as you are scanning boxes to locations, which will be placed into the customer box number field in VCK-SQL if the field is empty at the time of downloading the scanner.
Scan files in and out.
Scan files to boxes, files out of boxes, or stage files.
Review your scanned items.
Easily confirm scanned items. VCK-SQL warehouse scanning collects a complete profile of each item including:
- Action
- Type (box or file)
- Item (barcode)
- Location
- Customer box #
- Initials of user
- Time
If an item should need to be deleted, this is easily accomplished as well.
Download warehouse scans to VCK-SQL.
Download data effortlessly from the scanner directly into VCK-SQL with easy-to-follow, step-by-step instruction.
Veri-Shred Scanning
Scan bins that are serviced in the field.
Scan Bins collects information about each bin being serviced. Here is where bins are scanned in, out, tipped, or checked. The capacity or weight of each bin is also collected, if desired. There are several new features in the latest release: the ability to "check" a bin and record its capacity or weight without scanning it out or tipped. Mark a bin as "not found". Use transient barcodes for additional items not on the schedule.
Print shred receipts for stops.
Print shred receipts for service orders.
Print Certificate allows you to print one receipt for an entire Service Order. The receipts that you receive from the Scan Bins option only print for one stop at a time. Here you can print one receipt for all stops on one Service Order.
Delete scanned bins.
Bins can be deleted in the scanner, if necessary. From here, you can also review the list of bins that you have scanned.
Verify scanned bins.
Verify Bins allows you to go back at a later time and add the capacity or weight of a previously scanned bin. For instance, if the weight is not recorded until returning to the plant, the weight can be left empty at the time of servicing the bin. Upon return to the plant, the weight may be entered into the scanner through Verify Bins. From here, you may also review what action you took with each bin and the capacity or weight that was entered.
Review scanned bins.
Download warehouse scans to Veri-Shred.
Download data effortlessly from the scanner directly into Veri-Shred with easy-to-follow, step-by-step instruction.

You simply can't beat the Rab Women's Neutrino Down Vest for meaningful core warmth. It's lightweight and compressible, and packed with high quality hydrophobic down. Ideal for days when the thermometer goes sub-zero
With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.
You Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that, as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up and get it sent out to you - it often never even hits the stock room shelves!
With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.
So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.
Estimated Delivery Dates are given on Pre-Order and Pre-Launch products. They are for indication purposes only and can change at any time without notice.
The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery Dates provided on product pages.
You simply can't beat the Rab Women's Neutrino Down Vest for meaningful core warmth. It's lightweight and compressible, and packed with high quality hydrophobic down. Ideal for days when the thermometer goes sub-zero.
With many of the advantages of the popular Neutrino Endurance down jacket, but in a sleeveless version, this superb lightweight vest is ideal for backpacking in spring and autumn and for those cooler evenings. This women's vest uses the same high-quality 800FP Hydrophobic Down as the popular Neutrino Endurance Jacket, and features exceptional levels of warmth for its weight. Being hydrophobically treated, with technology from proofing experts NikWax, means that moisture and light rain won't affect the down's performance.
The outer shell fabric is Pertex® Quantum, which is windproof, very breathable and also down proof, without adding any undue bulk or weight. This lightweight fabric allows the vest to be compressed very small, making it the perfect solution for travelling. Elasticated arm holes and a hem drawcord ensure a comfortable and secure fit when active and 3 YKK zipped pockets provide plenty of storage space
The Neutrino Vest is a great insulation piece when small pack size and low weight are a primary criteria.
