In order to improve the print speed of Laser Beam Printer with flash heating, the clarification of phenomena in the melting process of a high polymer particle by flash heating has become very important in recent years. But, almost no theoretical and phenomenological explanations are given about this melting mechanism, because there are the rheological, phase change and the heat transfer problems in this melting process; that is, the temperature of a particle becomes over the melting point, the phase change from solid to liquid partially happen. The natural convection will proceed inside the particle in step with the liquefied. Finally, deformation of the polymer particle will be occurred by fluidity of fusing polymer and power balance between gravity and surface tension onto the material on which the polymer particle is put.From this viewpoint, the present study as the first stage was designed to clarify the external deformation process of a high polymer particle under the condition of

continuous radiant heating. Furthermore, in order to clarify a melting process inside the polymer particle, the method of measuring the moving of the interface between solid and liquid was investigated.The heating source is used a xenon lamp ( max. 150W ) which can be controlled the power and the exposure time. The beam is converged by a reflector to in 5mm diameter with flat distribution. The polymer particle used in the present study is one kind of acrylic polymer and its shape is spherical. The diameter of particles are 0.15-0.5mm which are 30-100 times. as large as real toner particles. The melting process is observed by a micro-scope and a CCD camera, and the continuous pictures are stored by video. The recorded pictures are digitalized to pixels ( 512x512 ) and light degrees ( 256 ) by the image board and transfer on memory of microcomputer for analysis.The focused laser beam is used in the measurement for moving of inter-face and the light intensity of laser beam penetrated the particle is measured by a semi-conductor transducer, and digitized by A-D transducer board to transfer to micro-computer for analysis.The results show that the external deformation pattern of a polymer particle with time is apparently similar regardless of the size of particle and radiant heating power. But, the deformation process is not monotonous with time and shows the singular point corresponding to progress of melting (that is, interface between solid and liquid). The method of measuring for moving of the interface by using laser beam was proved effective. The results are agreed with one of simulation qualitatively. Less

Internet the unlikely saviour of the post office
Although email has largely replaced letters, the post office is busier than ever, thanks to the boom in online shopping.

Paul Lecher, Manager for Australia Post's Retail Services in WA, parcel deliveries increased by 22 per cent in the past 12 months in the state.
"We know that 70 per cent of the parcels we deliver start with an online transaction."
While Australians have embraced the online shopping revolution, they're still stuck with old fashioned delivery, where the post is delivered during weekdays, often leaving them with card to collect their parcel from the nearest post office.
It's a problem the Australia Post says they are trying to solve with the creation of '24/7 superstores', with the first Perth outlet opening in the CBD today.
The stories include parcel lockers on the exterior of the building which customers can have their mail shipped to.
"We think that's a great opportunity for them to be able to register online, get their shopping delivered there and they can come and collect it anytime," Mr Lecher said.
Despite being emblazoned with a sign saying "24/7", the stores themselves aren't open around the clock, just the lockers.
However, they will offer an increased range of services, including passport application, money exchange and a dedicated driver's license renewal desk, under a new partnership with the Department of Transport.
Three more superstores are scheduled to open in Perth year.

Xbox 360
Prior to the Xbox 360, "Xbox Live Arcade" was the name for an online distribution network on the original Xbox, which was replaced by the Xbox Live Marketplace.
The Xbox Live Arcade service was officially announced on May 12, 2004 at Microsoft's E3 press conference[1] and launched on November 3, 2004 for the original Xbox game console.[2]
The XBLA software was obtained by ordering it on Microsoft's website.[3] It was sent by mail on a disc that also contained a free version of the Ms. Pac-Man video game.[4] To generate greater publicity for the service, the disc was also distributed with special issues of the Official Xbox Magazine and as part of the Forza Motorsport Xbox console bundle.[4][5]
The service launched with six titles and expanded its library to twelve titles by the end of the year.[6] Once connected to Xbox Live, customers could purchase additional titles by using a credit card, or download a limited trial version of a game.[4] Prices for the games range from USD $4.99 to $14.99.[3]
|List of Xbox Live Arcade games released on original Xbox (27 games)[3]
Xbox 360
On November 22, 2005, XBLA was relaunched on the Xbox 360. The service was integrated into the main Dashboard user interface, and the Xbox 360 hard drives were bundled with a free copy of Hexic HD.[7] Every Arcade title on the Xbox 360 supports leaderboards, has 200 Achievement points, and high-definition 720p graphics. They also have a trial version available for free download. These demos are playable and most of them offer only a fraction of the levels, modes, and content of the full game. A full version of the game must be purchased to allow the user to upload scores to the leaderboards, unlock achievements, play online multiplayer, and download bonus content.[8]
Several new features and enhancements have been added through software updates including a friends leaderboard, additional sorting options, faster enumeration of games, an auto-download feature for newly released trial games, and "Tell a Friend" messages.[9]
On July 12, 2006, Microsoft launched the "Xbox Live Arcade Wednesdays" program, which promised a new Arcade game to be launched every Wednesday for the rest of that Summer.[10] When that summer ended, Microsoft announced that new titles for XBLA would also be released on Wednesdays.[11]
In order to promote the service in retail, Microsoft released Xbox Live Arcade Unplugged Volume 1 as a compilation disc of six games.[12] On October 18, 2007, Microsoft announced the Xbox 360 Arcade console SKU which includes full versions of Boom Boom Rocket, Feeding Frenzy, Luxor 2, Pac-Man Championship Edition, and Uno.[13]
On May 22, 2008 Microsoft's general manager of Xbox Live, Marc Whitten, detailed changes for the service that included increasing the size limit of the games to 350MB and improving the way digital rights management is handled.[14] Furthermore, Microsoft created an internal games studio to create "high quality digital content" for XBLA.[14]
On July 30, 2008, Microsoft announced the XBLA Summer of Arcade. Anyone who downloaded one of the titles released over August, (Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2, Braid, Bionic Commando Rearmed, Galaga Legions and Castle Crashers) would be entered into a prize draw with a grand prize of 100,000 Microsoft Points, 12 Month Xbox Live Gold subscription, and an Xbox 360 Elite console. Another Summer of Arcade began the next year on July 22, 2009. Anyone who purchases all the titles released, ('Splosion Man, Marvel vs. Capcom 2, TMNT: Turtles in Time Re-Shelled, Trials HD and Shadow Complex,) will receive an 800 point reward. The next Summer of Arcade begin on July 21, 2010, and features Limbo, Hydro Thunder Hurricane, Castlevania: Harmony of Despair, Monday Night Combat and Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light.[15]
The original size limit imposed by Microsoft for Xbox Live Arcade games was 50MB, in order to ensure any downloaded game could fit on a 64MB Xbox memory unit. As the service became more popular, the limit was increased to 150MB. Further along the line this restriction was removed entirely and now the top limit is 2GB, which is a technical restriction of the system rather than an arbitrary limit imposed by Microsoft. [16]

Sales milestones
By March 10, 2006, three million downloads had been made.[17] By January 30, 2007 that number had grown to 20 million.[18] The service reached 25 million downloads on March 6, 2007[19] with 45 million downloads projected by the end of 2007.[20]
On March 27, 2007 Microsoft declared Uno to be the first Xbox Live Arcade game to exceed one million downloads.[21]
Nearly 70 percent of Xbox 360 owners connected to Xbox Live have downloaded an Arcade title[22][23] with the attach rate being 6-7 titles per user.[24] Original games typically receive 350,000 downloads in the first month.[25] Titles have an average 156% financial return over twelve months with the first two months of sales accounting for just 35% of total volume. Average conversion rate (from trial download to purchase) across all titles is 18%[20] (a low of 4% and high of 51%).[25]
On September 19, 2007, Microsoft announced the top ten Arcade downloads worldwide as Aegis Wing, Uno, Texas Hold 'em, Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved, Bankshot Billiards 2, Street Fighter II: Hyper Fighting, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 1989 Classic Arcade, Worms, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, and Contra.[22]
Pricing and releases
Xbox Live Arcade games are purchased using Microsoft Points (msp). Titles range in price from 200msp to 1600msp, with the vast majority selling for 800msp and under. The games are generally aimed towards more casual gamers, striving for "pick up and play" appeal.[23]
Several games were temporarily made free for a limited time, including Texas Hold 'em, Carcassonne, and Undertow.[26][27][28] Others are permanently free including Aegis Wing, a game created by three Microsoft interns,[29] TotemBall, a game that can only be played with the Xbox Live Vision camera,[30] Yaris (a Toyota-backed advergame),[31] and Dash of Destruction, which was released on December 17, 2008 as a Doritos advergame.[32] On November 30, 2007 Microsoft introduced "Xbox Live Arcade Hits", where games are permanently reduced in price (a similar concept to their "Platinum Hits" for regular retail Xbox 360 games).[33] As of July 22, 2008 current Arcade Hits include Lumines Live!, Assault Heroes, Zuma, Doom, Bankshot Billiards 2, Small Arms, Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords, and Marble Blast Ultra.[34]
Removal of games from the service
In May 2008, Microsoft announced that games older than 6 months would become eligible for delisting from the service if they had a Metacritic score below 65 and a conversion rate below 6%. The objective was to "focus the catalogue more on larger, more immersive games and make it much easier to find the games you are looking for."[35] However, Microsoft has never removed a game using the method.
In February 2010 it was announced that nine games from Midway Games would no longer be available for purchase, "due to publisher evolving rights and permissions", referring to the purchase by Warner Bros. of some assets of Midway Games, including certain rights related to the nine games.[36] Similar fates befell the XBLA version of Double Dragon when it's publisher went under. Yaris was an advergame that was pulled from the system after a year due to the timely nature of its contents.

TORONTO -- Crazy things can happen in a country where the loonie is a form of currency, rather than simply a description of Mike Martz's play calling.
Defying recent precedence, not to mention diminished expectations, the Bears proved they can still do the little things right.
In a 22-19 win over the feisty Buffalo Bills on somewhat-neutral ground, the offensive line actually blocked, Jay Cutler correctly recognized pressure, the Bears scored from the 1-yard line, scored in the third quarter -- both firsts this season, in case you haven't been counting -- and converted more third downs than they didn't.
Wild stuff, right?
Chicago had to come to a country where they punt on third down to learn how to convert third downs.
The sometimes-hapless Bears beat the still-winless Bills in a football game that riveted this country like no sporting event since Henry Burris led the Calgary Stampeders to the Grey Cup in 2008.
Or something like that.
Chicago came up on the right side of a roller-coaster fourth quarter in which Tim Jennings made an interception to set up the winning score and Chris Harris made one to close it out. In between, Cutler made one of the biggest throws of his career, a simple 2-yard touchdown pass to Earl Bennett.
It was a wild ending to what looked like a humdrum game in the first half, as the Bears avoided the ignominy of losing to a winless team.
For a while, late in the game, that result looked probable.
If the Bears had lost this game, there wouldn't have been enough bile to go around for the Lovie Smith-Jerry Angelo-Mike Martz triumvirate.
Yes, I'm speculating and projecting, but by beating the now 0-8 Bills, the Bears saved their season.
For a week, at least, the obituaries have been saved and filed away. Roland Burris' guys have stopped working on the 2010 season mausoleum.
In a lot of ways, it's amazing the Bears have won two games, let alone five, considering their distaste for basic principles of third-down conversions and red zone scoring. Coming into the game, the Bears were last in the NFL on third downs (18 percent), last in red zone scoring (30 percent) and 0-for-10 from the 1-yard line.
Cutler has been sacked more than any quarterback; this time he was sacked only once. Sure, he fumbled on the play and the Bills eventually scored on the turnover, but it was a vast improvement. Roberto Garza's return helped solidify a unit that has had a worse fall than congressional Democrats.
With an extra week to decompress from a 1-4 slide, Chicago converted 7 of 12 third downs and scored touchdowns on three of four red zone trips, including Chester Taylor's 1-yard scoring run in the third quarter.
"Red zone and third downs," Cutler said. "If you win those battles, you'll probably win the game."
Scoring inside the 20 and keeping drives alive really works, huh? The pundits were right, Martz really is a genius.
The Bills were a popular underdog pick in some circles, thanks to the Charlie Brown-esque cloud of failure. They certainly had karma on their side after consecutive overtime losses to playoff-bound teams, and in truth, their record is deceiving.
"I think momentum was against us today, playing the way we've been playing," Brian Urlacher said.
Lovie Smith's defense is predicated on causing turnovers. Taylor's scoring run in the third came after Charles Tillman forced, and recovered, a fumble on a Fred Jackson carry.
Buffalo quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick was in a pretty good rhythm in the second half, directing consecutive touchdown drives, but Jennings made the play of the game at the right time.
With just more than 9 minutes to play and the Bills leading 19-14, Jennings picked off an underthrown pass and returned it 39 yards to the Bills' 23-yard line to set up the winning score. He was working with safety help and held onto the ball, juggling it for extra drama.
"Finishing the job, getting that, really kind of switched momentum in our favor," Smith said.
After the pick, Cutler hit Greg Olsen for an 18-yard catch on third-and-10, ignoring a quicker throw to a wide-open Devin Hester, and then on third-and-2, he found Bennett running right to the rear corner of the end zone for the winning touchdown. Cutler connected with Matt Forte on a shuffle pass for the two-point conversion.
"We was on the sidelines, and we knew we had to make a play just to get the offense back the ball," Jennings said of his play. "We were able to go out and do that. When I caught that ball, I tried to get as many yards as I can to put the offense in a good position."
Cutler was appreciative. He was 17-for-30 for 188 yards and two touchdowns.
While he didn't throw a pick, he fumbled to start the fourth trying to do a spin move against Spencer Johnson. The Bills scored to take the lead.
"Defense is keeping us in games, keeping us alive; big turnovers, defense getting us good field position," Cutler said. "As long as we keep coming along and catching up to the defense, we're going to be a good team come December."
Manitoba's famous son, Israel Idonije, had a big game, blocking an extra point and picking up half a sack. He raised his helmet while singing "O Canada," a moment he cherished.
"It was a great experience and coming back to Canadian soil to play," he said. "But the biggest point of the day is that we won."
I'm not sure how many Idonije fans were in attendance at Rogers Centre, but it was a largely pro-Bears crowd -- a "Ditka for Prime Minister" banner was spotted in the upper deck.
While Buffalo fell to oh-and-a-half-season, the Bears squashed a two-game losing streak just in time to return home for a pivotal game against Minnesota, which scored a wild comeback win of its own against Arizona.
It's fitting the Vikings are up next, because like the stubbly zombie that is Brett Favre, the Bears refuse to be buried.
Whatever happens next is anybody's guess, but this promises to be a memorable second half of a season that could very well determine the immediate future of this franchise.

RICHLAND CENTER, WI - Since 1964, Schmitt Woodland Hills has serving the residents of Richland Center and neighboring communities. Today, they celebrated the grand opening of their new state-of-the-art skilled nursing facility with expanded services and up-grades that will better serve those needing their services.
Due to an increase in the need for specialized care in the area, there has been a skilled care bed shortage in Richland County. This new 50 bed facility, which is an expansion for Schmitt Woodland Hills, will help to accommodate the increased needs of area residents and to the fill the gap for skilled nursing care.
"We must not forget the fact that projects like these reflect how we value the people of our communities," said USDA Rural Development Wisconsin Community Programs Director, Brian Deaner. "This new facility shows that our seniors and those living with disabilities matter to us. The expansion of services is vital to this community and gives seniors the opportunity to live in an environment which offers the highest quality of care. It sends a message that the Richland Center area respects its seniors, and is about building community. Today we celebrate the work of all who made this expansion and new state-of-the-art facility possible. I commend all who contributed to this project and wish you much success."
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Rural Development awarded Schmitt Woodland Hills a $7.2 million Direct Loan through the Agency's Community Facilities Program to help with project costs. The project will also be financed through traditional lending mechanisms, with AgStar Financial.
Schmitt Woodland Hills has been a resource for people in Richland Center and the surrounding communities for nearly half a century providing services and support at some of the most important and transitional times in people's lives. People want to maintain their independence for as long as possible and Schmitt Woodland Hill's continuum of care enables people to age in place with supports changing as needs require it.
USDA Rural Development's mission is to deliver programs in a way that will support increasing economic opportunity and improve the quality of life of rural residents. As the lead federal agency for rural development needs, USDA Rural Development invests in jobs, infrastructure, community development, health, education, homeownership and affordable rental housing to improve the lives of people in rural areas and the economic health of rural communities. During the last year, the agency has assisted nearly 9,000 families and businesses in more than 100 communities, investing more than $571 million into rural Wisconsin through affordable loans, loan guarantees and grants.

WalMart has demanded that the city enter an agreement with their company to provide $5 million, or possibly more, in TIF monies for it's proposed structure. Stoughton Forward asks the city council to table the Developer's Agreement until the city consults with their TIF experts.
STOUGHTON, WI - Stoughton Forward requested the city attorney to review proposed actions by the Common Council of the City of Stoughton relating to the Kettle Park West development in light of the requirements of the Wisconsin statutes regarding TIF districts.
WalMart has now demanded that the city enter an agreement with their company to provide $5 million, or possibly more, in TIF monies for the public infra-structure that is required for the first phase of the development which is a retail mall with a WalMart SuperCenter as the anchor store.
On Tuesday night, the city council is scheduled to approve a new developer's agreement to reflect WalMart's demands among other changes.
Citizens and Stoughton Forward have been fighting against this massive corporate welfare. In April city voters voted 60% against the proposed corporate welfare, 78% in favor of re-focusing city efforts on re-developing the Downtown and riverfront and 53% voted against the entire Kettle Park West project.
Half of the 12 alders refuse to listen to their constituents who oppose the project and refuse to consider the voters wishes in their decision making.
Stoughton Forward has asked city council to table Tuesday's agenda items that relate to the Developer's Agreement until the city consults with their TIF experts who will advised them as to how to properly and legally proceed.
The city council meeting starts at 7 PM, Tues., 6-23-15, in council chambers above the police dept. in Stoughton, 321 S. Fourth St.
Public comment period starts soon thereafter.

From the beginning of 2015, China imposed a total ban on the use of executed prisoners' organs for transplantation, Huang said, describing the process as "an arduous journey".
Pope Francis would like to heal a decades-old rift with China, where Catholics are divided between those loyal to him and those who belong to a government-controlled official church.
"The lack of transparency about organ sources in China is a mask of deception".
"However, China is a big country, with 1.3 billion people, so sure, definitely, there is some violation of the law".
Huang dismissed claims that organs were still being extracted from prisoners or ethnic minorities in a state-sponsored program in China.
Both Congress and the European Parliament recently condemned organ harvesting in China amid widespread concerns that tissue is sourced from detained and executed prisoners.More news: Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Jason Statham expecting first baby
Dr Rogers wrote again, insisting the "failure of the academy to examine the evidence that forced organ harvesting has been, and is still happening in China, amounts to a form of complicity in these crimes". It has also been reported that the execution time of prisoners is often matched with the time a recipient might need an organ.
"We, the undersigned participants of the Pontifical Academy of Sciences summit on organ trafficking, resolve to combat these crimes against humanity through comprehensive efforts that involve all stakeholders around the world", said the final statement, released to the public February 9. In a protest letter he wrote to the Vatican, he said that the Pontifical Academy of Sciences must be aware that China is even using indirect endorsements to propel the reputation of its unethical practice. "There is no new law or regulation banning the use of executed prisoner organs".
At the summit, more than 70 scientists, experts and officials from different countries and global organizations attended the discussion on organ trafficking and transplant tourism, in a bid to set up further guidelines and ethical rules in curbing illegal activities worldwide.
Beijing is working hard to stop the forced harvesting of organs but prisoners' organs are still being used in some cases, a leading Chinese transplant surgeon has told a meeting in the Vatican on organ trafficking.
In his formal address at the Vatican, Huang invoked the ancient philosopher Confucius to say that the world would see that China was "mending its ways" and stressed that the government had cracked down on offenders.

Rangers: 2 Losses + 2 Trades = Better Team
Your Rangers lost two of three in Toronto over the weekend, and came out of it a distinctly better team.
How's that?
Texas was handcuffed by (again) Brett Cecil Friday night and by Brandon Morrow Sunday afternoon. But more importantly, GM Jon Daniels pulled off two trades that instantly have transformed the Rangers' bullpen from one of the worst in baseball to one of the best.
You may think the Rangers gave up too much in parting with 25-year-olds Tommy Hunter and Chris Davis for Orioles reliever Koji Uehara, and too much in parting with AA pitching prospects Joe Wieland and Robbie Erlin for Padres' set-up man Mike Adams. But with two of baseball's toughest relievers serving as the appetizer to closer Neftali Feliz, the Rangers may have just won the AL West (and more) by turning their games into 6-inning contests.

Hunter and Davis, as they say in baseball, were "blocked." Hunter by the development of Matt Harrison and Derek Holland; Davis by Mitch Moreland and his own inability to hit Major-League pitching. Wieland and Erlin are good prospects, but neither is considered to have ace potential.
Said Daniels in a conference call: "We didn't necessarily move any pieces we felt were going to be long-term fits."
The Rangers didn't touch prospects such as Martin Perez, Jurickson Profar or Leonys Martin for the future. And for the present they fortified their bullpen.
Simply put, Uehara and Adams don't let batters on base. They are Nos. 2 and 3 in the bigs this year in on-base percentage. Not sure whether Adams will pitch the 8th and Uehara the 7th or vice-versa, but I am certain Texas got two of the best back-end bullpen guys in baseball.
Uehara, 36, has pitched 16 scoreless innings over his last 14 appearances, including one yesterday for Texas in Toronto. And Adams, 33, has an ERA of 1.66 the last four years. The Rangers are in "Go for it!" mode. Today. Not tomorrow.
Even better, both are -- or soon will be -- signed through 2012 so they're not 8-week rentals like Cliff Lee in 2010. In the final analysis, Adams might be a more shrewd move than even Heath Bell.
And the Rangers are a better team this morning.

An optical electrical model which studies the response of Si-based single photon counting arrays, specifically silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs), to scintillation light has been developed and validated with analytically derived and experimental data. The scintillator-photodetector response in terms of relative pulse height, 10%–90% rise/decay times to light stimuli of different rise times (ranging from 0.1 to 5 ns) and decay times (ranging from 1 to 50 ns), as well as for different decay times of the photodetector are compared in theory and simulation. A measured detector response is used as a reference to further validate the model and the results show a mean deviation of simulated over measured values of 1%.

Flight Technology
By: Breyonie Montgomery
Session 1
In session 1 of flight technology we talked about the airplanes wings and how its goes up and what makes it goes up. Also how the airplane goes down and what makes it goes down.
Session 2
In session 2 of flight technology we had to draw any kind of airplane wings and once we had the one drawing we liked we had to cut it. After you cut it out you had to trace 10 more because you need 11 wings to make one big wing.
Session 3
In session 3 of Flight Technology we had to use our small wings, scissors, tape, glue, colored paper, and the wing cached. We used the colored paper to make the big wing and bend it into 1/4 and put it against the wing thingy and out a piece of paper and put glue on it and used it to put a tap of glue on the wings, put them through the slots in the wing thingy and let them dry. Then put a piece of tape on the top of the small wings and then put the top of the paper on top and taped it together.
Session 4
In Session 4 Of Flight Technology we had to use our wings that we made in session 3 to test the amount of wind flowing over my wing. We used the Wing Tester to find the amount of wing we can find in our wing.
Session 5
In Session 5 of Flight Technology we explore the basic controls on Cessna and flied a Cessna using simulation software. We talked about the wings of a airplane and what they do to keep the airplane in the air.
Session 6
In session 6 of Flight Technology we perform some basic flight maneuvers using the Flight Simulator software. WE talked more about what we should watch when we are using the software.
Session 7
In session 7 of Flight Technology we used the navigation plotter to determine the direction of flight being planned. Use the Flight Simulator software to test the accuracy of one of my calculation. We followed everything the person said to do.

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - She is wowing fans on the reality TV contest "Dancing With the Stars" but behind the scenes this week, singer/actress Brandy has been in a more important competition. She is racing against time to help save the life of a teenager who needs a heart transplant.
Brandy, who gained fame as chart topping R&B singer and actress on the TV show "Moesha," has been raising awareness and money for 16-year-old Jessica Harris, who suffers from a congenital heart defect. Known as hypoplastic left heart syndrome, the condition can be fatal.
"I just want to do whatever I can to get her story out there in the public," Brandy told Reuters. "You hear a lot of stories like these, but this one just connected to me."
Harris lives McComb, Mississippi, where Brandy Norwood was raised before she went to Hollywood and became the big star known simply by her first name.
Brandy's family told her of a story the local paper wrote about Harris needing a heart transplant that, on average, costs $150,000. But Harris is currently uncovered by insurance because the policy through her father's new job doesn't allow dependents with pre-existing conditions until July 2011. Harris has been told by doctors she may not live that long.
The story in the McComb Enterprise-Journal this month told readers how Harris dearly wanted to meet Brandy, who recently found success in reality television on shows like "Brandy & Ray J: A Family Business" and currently "Dancing With the Stars."
When Brandy got wind of the tale, she talked with Harris and decided to fly her and her family to Hollywood where the teenager attended a taping of "Dancing With the Stars." Harris also had dinner and birthday cake at home with the Brandy and her family. Harris turns 17 years-old on November 3.
"When I met her, she felt like a younger sister," Brandy said of Harris. At dinner, "she got a chance to see me as a person and not what she thought of me" as a celebrity.
Now, Brandy is out raising money for Jessica through the website, www.thejessicaharrisdream.com. The two appeared earlier this week on celebrity news magazine show "Entertainment Tonight."
"It feels amazing," Brandy said. "It feels like I'm doing something so positive, using my fame and popularity to help."
For her part, Harris said she has had a "nice trip" and was "very appreciative" of Brandy's help.
"Just meeting her that was cool enough," Harris told Reuters. "She stayed with me the whole time...treating me like she was treating her own daughter. She was more than what I thought, she was real down to earth."

Coffee could be the second most frequently traded commodity in the world, as assessed by monetary volume, after crude oil. Coffee, certainly, is huge company. This might be great news for coffee fans and aficionados who is able to change their passion the brew into a permanent occupation. Coffee demand goes well beyond making use of beans for hot or cold beverages just. Cooking with coffee is a proven stylish cooking training in lots of upscale and specific restaurants. The menus feature meals with several savory sauces including coffee as one of the ingredients. Take an instant consider titles of published prepare books, recipes, and cuisine development and you'll begin to see the utilization of the brew just about everywhere.
Let us take a good look at a few of the work-related routes for sale in the coffee trade.
Coffee Supplier: a middleman involving the coffee grower together with bean-buying businesses. A coffee supplier has to be an expert in coffee varietals, kinds of beans, sales and marketing trends, supply and demand problems the a lot of different coffee. Powerful company and organizational skills are essential. Coffee trading includes a complex system of packaging, shipping, export legislation, and transport coordination. The supplier needs to have great private skills to communicate with coffee growers on the amount and in addition communicate with coffee purchasing professionals making use of a rather different company language. Foreign-language skills are incredibly helpful, especially Spanish, since much coffee is stated in Spanish speaking countries.
Coffee Taster: a rather "cool" occupation that will require an incredibly higher level feeling of style and scent. Tasters exist for wine, wine, alcohol, orange juice and several various other consumable services and products. Coffee tasters are very essential in the trade. Pro coffee tasters can differentiate differences between 100 kinds of coffees. The key function of taster would be to determine the quality and functionality of beans and to develop new blends. The coffee taster doesn't really ingest the brew. Instead, the coffee taster sucks it from a spoon towards straight back associated with mouth to test the flavors using the tongue and spits out of the test.
Coffee Trader: Arabica coffee futures and choices are traded in nyc from the Intercontinental Exchange (ICE, previously the latest York Board of Trade). Robusta coffee futures tend to be traded in London on Euronext.liffe. There are some other worldwide exchanges that trade coffee futures various other international places. Getting a coffee investor requires information about fluctuation in costs, manufacturing and regular variations from country to country, checking up on development about weather, politics and social modifications that can impact coffee manufacturing. Primarily, a trader needs to have nerves of steel to resist the emotional and peer pressure that is typical in commodity trading swimming pools where fortunes may be made and lost in just a few hours or minutes.
Coffee flavorist: this occupation requires an undergraduate degree either in biology or biochemistry with specific meals studies at a post-graduate amount. Most coffee flavorists tend to be passionate about the brew. They're also really inquisitive people who love experimentation to get that "next special flavored brew." The coffee flavorist spends the afternoon mixing and matching particular compounds so that you can develop special flavors. Not surprisingly, numerous flavorists will also be good chefs.
Coffee Inspector: this occupation requires good information about the beans, ground coffee quality and element assessment. Most coffee inspectors work for businesses which can be certified to help with evaluation and certification solutions at docking channels, ports, warehouses and large coffee handling facilities. Coffee inspectors examine bulk shipments and certify quality-control laboratory coffee tasting. The coffee inspector makes certain that bulk coffee purchasers get the proper volume and top-notch beans ordered.
Coffee "Barista:" initially, this term had been utilized in Italy for uniformed bartenders or trained "mixologists" familiar with all types of beverage mixtures. As a result of the development in the gourmet coffee business, the word barista is actually synonymous with an expert in producing espresso, espresso-based drinks and several various other types of coffee beverages. A trained coffee barista knows the way in which much heated water should-be required through the mesh of an espresso device and how long so that you can create the perfect froth from steamed milk or allow the espresso to make an all natural dark. Numerous baristas also apply "coffee art" and learn the skill of producing shapes from the brew with milk, lotion, coffee flavorings as well as other ingredients offered.
The list continues with several more specific job opportunities in the trade for coffee fans. Therefore, how about taking a break and taking pleasure in a delicious cup of White Chocolate flavored coffee or Chocolate Cinnamon Hazelnut flavored coffee?

Minutes after Man Haron Monis walked into the Lindt Cafe in Martin Place with a loaded shotgun on Monday morning, Don McLennan received a text message from NSW emergency services.
"Martin Place siege, please reply to this text to acknowledge," the message read.
As the manager of coronial services at the Office of the NSW Coroner, the 53-year-old from Wagga is notified about all major incidents that have the potential to significantly affect the work of the coroner.
Over the following 16 hours McLennan watched the siege unfold with the fervent hope that none of those involved would be wheeled into the mortuary that adjoins his building on Ross Street, Glebe.
"When we saw that black flag my heart dropped," he said.
"I was watching and thinking, 'I'm here on the lounge and those poor people are stuck in there'."
"You just hope that it ends peacefully."
Tragically, that was not the case.
Early on Tuesday morning McLennan woke to the news that cafe manager Tori Johnson and barrister Katrina Dawson had been killed in the brutal conclusion to the siege along with Monis.
Within hours McLennan and his colleagues began the difficult but important role carried out by the coroner's office when tragedy strikes in NSW.
The coroner's job is to determine the time, place, manner and cause of death.
Over the past week the office has been centrally involved in ensuring that bodies of the Martin Place victims are delivered promptly to the mortuary so that autopsies can be completed and reports prepared.
The bodies are then returned to their loved ones.
In the case of Martin Place, the registrar and NSW Coroner Michael Barnes took the unusual step of releasing swaths of documents to the media relating to the previous matters involving Monis.
McLennan's role was to manage these processes, ensuring that the coroner could carry out his work smoothly and effectively, and that there was minimal impact and inconvenience for the families of those who have died.
Johnson's body had already been delivered by the time McLennan arrived at the coroner's premises in Glebe at 6.30am and Dawson's arrived mid-morning.
Their autopsies have been completed, and the pathologists attached to the Department of Forensic Medicine have begun their examination of Monis' body.
McLennan says the autopsy on Monis' body will take a number of days because of the level of detail that will be required regarding the manner and cause of his death.
The bodies of his victims have now been returned.
"We absolutely feel for the victims," McLennan says.
"I knew we were going to be deeply involved. You just try and do your job as well as you can. You go into work mode."
McLennan has been involved in a number of previous tragedies affecting multiple NSW residents, including the Bali bombings and the Boxing Day tsunami.
He has now begun preparing for what will be one of the largest and most scrutinised coronial inquests in the state's history.
A team of four solicitors from the NSW Crown Solicitor's Office, and a senior barrister, will be seconded to the coroner's office to conduct the investigation for Barnes, who will ultimately hear the inquest.
The courts at Glebe will not be large enough to hold the inquest so McLennan has begun looking into alternative arrangements.
Unlike previous inquests, the Coroner's Court will hold a short preliminary hearing while the investigation is still in its early stages to so that the various parties can update the public and the coroner on the types of issues that are likely to arise.
"It's not everyone's cup of tea to work here – people tend to think of it as a very morbid place," McLennan says of his role at the court.
"But the people who do are very passionate."

Hi All,
I'm looking for ideas and thoughts on any way that we can monitor Contractors and Casuals with when they are at work, basically a timesheet validation program or similar. We have casuals that we suspect are filling in dodgy timesheets, but since our buildings are diverse - it's hard to pin point exactly when they arrive in the morning and leave in the afternoon.
The situation is a little political... they are mates of the owner's children; so they have a degree of untouchableness. We're hoping to gather some kind of metrics to determine if (and how much) they are ripping off the company by falsifying hours. Obviously we'd like to be able to 'manage' them as we would any other staff member - but it just isn't going to happen that way.
Thoughts we've had:
- A program that they have to click "start & stop" on that logs hours into a database. Problem: What happens if they forget to click start or stop. We then wouldn't be able to rely on the hours.
- Watch logon/ logoff times in AD. Problem: They 'forget' to turn off their computer at night.
Anyone else experience something similar and have any recommendations of ways we can determine some metrics?

To record logon and logoff times so you aren't searching through event logs for logon and logoff events:
Also maybe have HR "remind" them that not logging the computers off at night is a huge security risk and not in compliance with the Acceptable Use Policy (you do have some kind of computer use policy right?).
What kind of databases are they using throughout the day? If it's something you have access to the backend for, you can usually create records with timestamps and who inserted the data to help in auditing.
OTOH, if management isn't concerned about it, why should you be? It's their job to run the company, and HR's job to discipline, if no one is requesting that you do this, you could get in trouble for "snooping" on employees - make sure you have mangement buyin before doing anything along those lines. If management really doesn't care if they are falsifying hours, it shouldn't be your care either.
May 14, 2009 at 11:47 UTC
A timeclock would be perfect?
May 14, 2009 at 11:54 UTC
I was going to suggest that, but it sounded like he wanted something more discrete.
May 14, 2009 at 1:59 UTC
Have a word with the Health & Safety guy or HR and phrase it as an accountability measure in the event of an emergency.
As they are not always onsite you need a means to know when they are there so that time is not wasted searching for them when they are actually somewhere else. As the Fire Chief I will go slightly crazy if you tell me that you don't know if everyone is out of the building because you don't know who was there to begin with.
And like you pointed out Christopher, if management doesn't care then why bother?
May 14, 2009 at 2:16 UTC
How do most companies deal with that? A computer-timeclock doesn't work too well - don't want to wait for the page to print when there's a fire going on...we have sign-in/sign-out sheets in all of our offices, but it doesn't seem like most companies have that.
May 14, 2009 at 2:52 UTC
The old-fashioned physical timeclock, either punch card or electronic but two racks one either side. When you clock in you move your card from left rack to right rack. If there's a fire someone grabs the right rack and we need to match up all those cards to people.
May 14, 2009 at 8:17 UTC
Risk Management Technologies (RMT) is an IT service provider.
Thanks for the suggestions so far...
The punch in/out cards is a good idea... we have three different building on the one street - would be a lot of punching in and out as people transition between the buildings. And we're in an old fereration house for one, which has multiple access to the street - so no single entrance/ exit to ensure people will do that.
Obviously any solution is likely to be intrusive. Probably just as easy to install IP cameras at the entraceways and monitor times manually?!?!?
May 15, 2009 at 7:46 UTC
We had a similar situation with employees having excel based timesheets that they would simply fill in and then print off and hand in at the end of the week - of course we ran into the same problem - that people were susposed to be working 40 hours and would not but then fill the time sheet in as 40 and we had no way of really knowing.
i wrote a custom punch clock application that ties back to a database and they are responsible for punching in when they logon first thing in the morning and then punch out at the end of the day. then we people did not punch out at the end of the day - it would be a blank end time in the database which would be a flag and cause their hours to not add up. people soon got into the habit of punch in/punch out and it has worked reasonably well to manage things.
This discussion has been inactive for over a year.
You may get a better answer to your question by starting a new discussion.
