Hot Springs, Arkansas
Hot Springs is a city in Garland County, Arkansas. The city is best known for its namesake thermal springs, which have attracted tourists and entrepreneurs since the early 19th century. The 143°F waters emerge from a network of 47 natural springs, which feed a number of local bathhouses, hotels, and drinking fountains. The springs are federally protected as part of Hot Springs National Park. Located within the park's boundaries, the downtown Bathhouse Row district preserves a number of Belle Époque bathhouses, including Fordyce Bathhouse, which is now a museum and visitor center, and two working bathhouses, Buckstaff and Quapaw.
From 1673 to 1803, the territory which included Hot Springs was under French and Spanish control. With the Louisiana Purchase, the land became part of the United States and was opened to settlement in 1818. In 1832, Congress created the Hot Springs Reservation to protect and preserve the area's signature feature. Hot Springs rebuilt after the Civil War. Spa vacations were becoming popular among the middle class and the construction of railroads, bathhouses and luxury hotels such as the Arlington Hotel brought a lively tourist trade. Prior to World War I, Hot Springs was also a spring training location for several major league baseball teams. In 1913, a major fire destroyed 60 blocks of Hot Springs, including several hotels, businesses and a theater. The city rebuilt, and during the 1920s, began to attract an illegal gambling trade, which continued through the early 1960s. In 1942, the Army and Navy General Hospital was built for recovering soldiers to take advantage of the springs' therapeutic properties. Today, the facility operates as the Arkansas Rehabilitation Center. Tourism remains a major industry in Hot Springs, which offers annual music and film festivals and thoroughbred horseracing at Oaklawn Park, which has held race meets since 1904.
Hot Springs has long had an active commercial construction industry, at times when asbestos-containing construction materials were widely used. Workers and their loved ones who have been exposed to asbestos may be at risk for malignant mesothelioma and other asbestos-related diseases. If you were diagnosed with asbestos cancer in Hot Springs, you may also benefit from seeking the advice of an asbestos attorney.

Dr. David Ulrich is arguably the most renowned HR thought leader of the last 25 years. We were privileged to have him present the opening keynote at our HR Management Conference last week in Raleigh. He opened with a question for the 300 participants: What is the biggest challenge you face in your job today? Many of us wrote down items like finding talent, retaining talent, turnover, leadership succession, healthcare costs, and the like. In other words, challenges we face going on INSIDE our organizations. Dr. Ulrich challenged everyone to view the COMPANY and it's external customers as the primary customer for HR, versus the traditional view of HR's customers being the employees, managers, departments, etc. - all inside the organization.
His challenge got me thinking back to business school and our debates about which group is more important to a company's business - it's shareholders, customers or employees. The "shareholder" camp argues that without their investment the company couldn't exist. The "customer" camp argues that without customers there would be no one to buy the products and services. The "employee" camp argues that without employees there would be no one to make the products and services to sell to the customers. The late management expert Peter Drucker defined the purpose of a company as this; to create customers. Without customers a company cannot survive so in almost all situations the customer needs have to come first. Taking a page from Drucker, Ulrich believes that HR's biggest challenge going forward is to ensure their talent, leadership and culture are all aligned to create the most value for external customers. Value being defined by the receiver, ie, the customer. HR is in the ideal place to help ensure our business strategy will happen since that strategy depends on people to execute it.
Ulrich calls this new view "Outside-In HR" and provided many examples of how this approach to HR works differently (see table 1).
To accomplish an Outside-In approach, HR professionals must gain external knowledge and insights from a variety of sources such as industry events and reports, customer meetings, competitor analysis, attending sales meetings, and the like. Such knowledge can transform how HR looks at talent, leadership and culture systems. For example, culture, from an outside-in perspective is the identity of your firm in the eyes of key customers...made real for employees. Think of the positive experience we almost always get at Chic-fil-A as we encounter the intersection of their talent, culture and leadership. You can tell that they work hard to make sure all three systems are aimed at making the customer experience one that would keep them buying their product.
Ulrich's message was aimed primarily at those HR executives who already have a seat at the executive table. Noted Ulrich, it's no longer a question of "how" to get a seat at the table but a question of "what" HR should bring to that table. HR's executive contribution should be as the architect of those three areas - talent, leadership and culture (see table 2).
A key question for many HR executives is how they will find the time to focus on these three areas. Ulrich argues that the answer to that question lies in a fundamental question: Who ultimately is responsible for HR at a company? The HR Organization, the leadership team, the CEO, or line managers? Ulrich believes strongly that line managers should own many of the day-to-day activities that HR departments have traditionally owned. This transformation frees up HR to be the chief "architect and anthropologist" for the company. The architect of the blueprints and frameworks to make talent, leadership and culture happen. The anthropologist studying peoples behaviors to help the company learn how to more effectively apply it's knowledge.
Ulrich provided a great model for how HR can be a true strategic player in the year 2015 and beyond. Don't know where to start? CAI now has experts on the Advice and Resolution team that can help you think through transforming how HR is done at your company. Call Rick Washburn at (919) 713-5247 or send Rick a message .

Research Institution
AbstractThere is a definite need for low-profile conformal antenna designs to replace the commonly used quarter-wavelength whip antenna for wideband (covering 0.3 – 3.0 GHz) systems on Army's airborne and ground mobile platforms. Wang Electro-Opto Corporation (WEO) has been conducting research for such antennas for 15 years, and has developed antennas that are highly promising in achieving the general requirements of this SBIR A08-011 program. WEO proposes to develop a low-profile wideband antenna by modifying its existing well-established low-profile conformal antennas having a 10:1 instantaneous bandwidth. In Phase-I WEO will seek inputs from the Army technical monitor for specific performance and physical goals. Depending on the specific requirements, one of the following three WEO antenna technologies will be applied: the Spiral-Mode Microstrip (SMM) antenna, the Slow-Wave (SW) antenna, and the Traveling-Wave (TW) antenna. A ½-scale breadboard model that can best adapt to Army's airborne and ground mobile platforms will be designed, fabricated, and tested in Phase-I. The test results are to demonstrate antenna performance similar to that of a whip antenna, yet having an instantaneous bandwidth over 0.6 – 6.0 GHz and with a low-profile feature suitable for Army's needs, thus its adequacy for full-scale (0.3-3.0 GHz) brassboard development in Phase-II.

Hey Gents:
Been an avid AoM reader since 2012 and as you can see in the title, I am looking for a tractor tire for flipping/sledge hammer.
I am in Massachusetts and if anyone could point me in the right direction, that would be great. I don't have a lead at all.
Views: 83
I found one on Craigslist a few years back. Another option I heard about, but haven't done myself, is to find a tire/tractor shop that works with those size tire.
Go to a John Deer dealership and ask what they do with old tires. Else look for a farm co-op for the same.
Thanks 'fellas, just contacted a couple of people from John Deer dealerships, any other place besides John Deer?
You might do one of these:
1. Go OLD SCHOOL and look up "Tractors" in the Yellow Pages.
2. Google "Tractors" and your state or "Tractor Tires" and your state
BTW it's John DEERE.
Is there a tire plant in the area. You might be able to get a defect for cheap / free.
Contact any tire store that deals in agriculture tires. If they don't have an old one, they can point you to a farmer that has one laying around.
If I were closer you could choose your size lol we have plenty of them
Thanks for the help, wish I was as well LOL
If you live anywhere near New Bedford, go to F&B Rubberized on Washburn Street.
They recycle tires there and usually have hundreds of varying sizes laying around. Talk to the foreman, he should be able to help you out.
He had told me that they sold gyms and individuals tires before. Should be pretty cheap.

GROCERY: Paper trail
The paper goods aisle absorbs consumers with innovation, catchy graphics, and new products, despite competition from other classes, and a pending price hike.By Richard Turcsik
What can be said about the paper goods aisle, except that it's on a roll? Consumers have fallen in love with the bigger bundle packs, softer rolls, and cute packaging that have become aisle mainstays in recent years. As a result shoppers keep finding new uses for paper products, buying more of them in the process. Just take a look in the aisles: You'll find nearly every shopping cart overflowing with a 12-, 24- or larger-count pack of toilet tissue, paper towels, and boxes of facial tissue.
"There has been a trend to larger sizes, and retailers seem more interested in promoting those," says James Riehl, senior v.p., marketing at Marcal Paper Mills in Elmwood Park, N.J.
"We're seeing more and more sales in those big packs of the 12-doubles and 24-singles," says Mike Taylor, senior brand manager, Angel Soft at Georgia-Pacific Consumer Products Division in Atlanta. "Consumers want bigger packs. Our consumer has two, three, or more kids and is going through a lot of toilet paper. It's important for her to be able to buy it in big packs," he says, adding, "By far our big movers are the 12-double roll and the 24-single roll packs, but now we're starting to see people move into even bigger ones, like the 18-double and 24-double roll packs."
"Over 60 percent of our business is now in extended-roll-life formats," says John Brase, Charmin brand manager at Procter & Gamble in Cincinnati. "Still, if you look at all the things consumers talk to us about when they talk about bath tissue, they'll still say their biggest frustration is that they need to change the roll too often. So we're going to continue to focus on ways we can put more paper on the roll. We're looking at some innovative things."
The problem is, if rolls get physically bigger, they won't fit in the dispenser, and that will sacrifice product performance. "The consumer will let you know loud and clear when they feel like you've sacrificed performance," Brase says. "But we still feel there are some definite ways to drive extended roll life without compromising product performance."
Toilet tissue manufacturers are looking to improve performance in other ways, too. Charmin now offers scented toilet paper in Wild Flower Fresh and Shower Fresh versions. "Both have done extremely well," says Brase, noting that the scent is applied to the roll and not the actual tissue itself.
In April P&G began shipping an improved version of Charmin Ultra. "We've made some tremendous strides in thickness and absorbency, which are two key areas that consumers continue to aspire for in bath tissue, so we made a significant upgrade on our Ultra product to differentiate ourselves from the pack in terms of the strongest, thickest, most absorbent bath tissue on the market," Brase says.
Flushable wipes
Another up-and-coming trend is wet toilet paper -- commonly called flushable wipes -- which is just beginning to fight for shelf space and is packaged in plastic recloseable containers. "When it comes to wet toilet paper, the U.S. is really behind the curve here," Brase notes. "We've seen phenomenal explosion of the wet category in Western Europe. What we're learning is that the system usage of wet and dry really is driving overall bath tissue consumption. The wet usage isn't coming at the expense of dry in Europe, which is great for us and our retail partners."
Georgia-Pacific, which is in the process of converting its MD brand in the Pacific Northwest and Northern California over to the Angel Soft moniker used in the rest of the country, has begun airing comical commercials featuring David and Larry, "Bathroom Angels" with a mission of helping families respond to bathroom emergencies by magically coming to the rescue with rolls of Angel Soft. "Basically Angel Soft is the affordable choice for people who want premium-quality toilet paper," Taylor says. "So we needed to develop a point of difference and a campaign to make sure that message was getting to our consumer."
Here's another message the industry is sending to consumers: Prices are going up.
Pummeled by a one-two punch of skyrocketing prices on pulp and natural gas, the three major players, led by P&G, announced a price hike. "We'll be raising prices by about 6 percent come July through a combination of reduced promotional spending and list price increase," says Celeste Kuta, external relations manager at P&G. "This was a really tough decision for us. Both pulp and natural gas, our two key raw materials, have been increasing much higher than 6 percent, so we held off as long as we could, trying to find efficiencies elsewhere and drive out costs. But it got to the point where we couldn't innovate anymore because we didn't have money to invest back into the product. The price increase will allow us to invest back into the brand and continue the innovation, which will be good for consumers."
While manufacturers don't expect the price increase to have an impact on consumption, it may cause some consumers to switch to value brands. One of those value players is Philadelphia-based Irving Tissue, a regional manufacturer created by former Scott Paper Co. officials who lost their jobs when that venerable company was acquired by Kimberly-Clark. It markets Soft Weve toilet tissue and Scotties facial tissues to about a dozen customers in the Northeast. "Soft Weve is a one-ply bath tissue with a distinctive 1,250-sheet count in the value, or 1,000-sheet one-ply, segment," says Linda Riondet, marketing director, Scotties and Soft Weve brands at Irving Tissue. "Our primary competition is Scott."
Those value-conscious shoppers may also be seeking out private label. "Although we're all affected by the rising cost of energy, the private label industry will still boast the most savings to the consumer," says Philip Shaoul, director of sales at Global Tissue Group, a primarily private label manufacturer in Holbrook, N.Y. "As the price of the brands go up, private label usually reaps the benefits in new purchases."
Private label is also increasing its share by developing better-quality products. "We will be introducing through-air-dried, or TAD, household roll towel for private label," Shaoul says. "This product is a high-end premium product."
Potlatch Corp. has developed its own TAD private label towel that it's marketing with a Hydrasorb trademark and targeting against P&G's Bounty. "Hydrasorb is a trademark that we developed," says Bruce Woodlief, consumer products marketing director at Spokane, Wash.-based Potlatch. "It's unusual for a store brand or private label to have any form of trademark. Usually it's generic, but we decided, with having more of an upscale and higher-performing product, why not add some branded techniques to develop a trademark that we could let our retail customers use?"
Potlatch typically targets key consumer brands, including Northern and Northern Ultra, in bathroom tissue. "The performance and the physical characteristics of those products typically match those of the target brand," Woodlief says. "In the case of our TAD paper towels, we've targeted Bounty in terms of Bounty's absorbency, look, and feel, although we've leveraged more of a softness feel that our consumers seem to like. We've done a fair amount of consumer testing, and our preference scores are pretty good compared to Bounty."
At the same time, however, P&G continues to fine-tune its Bounty line. Last month it began offering large-count packs of its Select A Size line, along with a collection of Touch of Color Prints that are available in 8-, 12-, and 15-roll packs. "We're also coming out with our Activity Prints for school, which involve our licensing agreement with Nickelodeon and feature Dora the Explorer, Blues Clues, Jimmy Neutron, and SpongeBob SquarePants," says Melissa Hale, external relations manager at P&G. "There are activities on the actual Bounty towel sheets for kids to work on as they're waiting for their meals, or just to entertain and educate them." She adds that P&G's Puffs facial tissues are also coming out with Jimmy Neutron and SpongeBob SquarePants activity boxes that will begin shipping in June.
"With Puffs a lot of the innovation has been in the design," Kuta says. "We just started shipping a new Puffs Cube design with scalloped, turned-in edges that's the first major packaging change in, like, 20 years. Consumers just love these, and the shipment of the SKU is up about 44 percent vs. a year ago because of these designs," she says.
Now that paper products have become a decorating tool, retailers can look for sales to rise after each new episode of "Trading Spaces."

This is my Romo Lampkin set, made in honor of Romo Lampkin. I really like how it turned out, considering it's my first sig made without cutting the image I want out of the stock. I particularly like the bleached, almost sepia toned sig. The avatar was some more "creative" use of my favorite GIMP filter, Cartoon.
Unfortuneately, I kinda broke my resolution to stop making sigs around 400x200 in size(this is 400x180).

Sturgeon Doesn't Like SNP Name
The SNP leader admitted the word "national" could be "hugely problematic".
Andy Murray admits he has "hardly watched'' replays of his 2013 Wimbledon triumph, but hopes to conjure up another magic summer on the grass courts of the All England Club.
The 28-year-old will this week start his quest for a fourth title at Queen's Club in the Aegon Championships having battled through a low-grade illness during his run to the semi-finals of the French Open in Paris.
Murray has impressed on clay this season, but intends to make a smooth transition back onto the lawns at SW19.
While that often involves a bit of prep by going over previous tournaments, Murray revealed he does not dig out the DVD of the moment he ended a 77-year wait for a British men's singles champion at Wimbledon as often as you might think.
"That is one of the matches, I don't know why, that I have hardly watched at all. I have watched bits of the match, but not extended periods,'' Murray said in a number of national newspapers.
"It is more the Olympics. I have watched my (semi-final) match with Novak (Djokovic) at the (London 2012) Olympics a couple of times, and the final with Roger (Federer) quite a few times, rather than Wimbledon.''
Murray continued: "Often when I move on to a new surface, I watch some videos of matches where I feel I have played well in that -tournament or on that surface.
"You see things you were doing well, the things giving you success, and it is to remember that. If you are still in the same mindset of playing on clay and what you were doing well on clay, it doesn't necessarily help.''
Murray's pregnant coach Amelie Mauresmo will not join his back-room staff at the Aegon Championships, but will be on hand for Wimbledon, so assistant Jonas Bjorkman will step in.
"We have spent four or five days on the grass now,'' said Murray. "The things he did extremely well as a player are things I think I could really learn and benefit from with him. He was a very aggressive returner and I think that works extremely well on grass courts.
"He was very good up at the net. He was the number one doubles player in the world.
"If you can get yourself up to the net and play aggressive tennis, it can make a big difference on this surface.
"There are things I am hoping I can work on and improve upon within my team and see how it goes.''
Tennis bosses have this year added an extra week's break to the global calendar between the end of the French Open and the start of Wimbledon.
Queen's has become an ATP 500 event, worth double the rankings points and with the winner's prize money up to some 380,000 euros (£274,000).
Murray, who last won the title in 2013 and is set to play qualifier Lu Yen-hsun of Chinese Taipei on Tuesday, added: "If I win this tournament it doesn't guarantee I'm going to win Wimbledon, but it does show form on grass.
"I feel like the past few months consistently I have been playing well at the big events and hopefully that will stand me in good stead.''

Vitamin K is a fat-soluble vitamin that plays a role in blood clotting. Vitamin K activates the protein that clots the blood.
It is also needed for the synthesis of bone proteins. A vitamin K deficiency can lead to heart disease, weakened bones, tooth decay and cancer.
Much of the vitamin K in our diets comes from the intestinal bacteria we already have, because of this, your vitamin K levels can depend greatly on the health of your gut.
There are two types of vitamin K we have in our diet, vitamin K1 and vitamin K2. Vitamin K1 is found in vegetables where vitamin K2 also called menaquinone is found in dairy products and produced by the bacteria in your gut.
When looking to supplement or add to your diet, vitamin K2 rich foods have been shown to have greater health benefits than K1.
There is also a synthetic version which is vitamin K3 which I do not recommend. Instead, follow the vitamin K food list below.
Consuming vitamin K rich foods can support:
Heart health
Improve bone density
Restore oral health
Fight cancer
Reduce infections
The RDA of vitamin K is 120 mcg/day for men and 90mcg/day for women. The Daily Value is 80 mcg.
Top 10 Vitamin K Rich Foods List
1) Green Leafy Vegetables (Kale)
½ c: 444 mcg (over 100% DV)
2) Natto (fermented soy)
2 oz: 500 mcg (over 100% DV)
3) Spring onions (Scallions)
½ c: 103 mcg (over 100% DV)
4) Brussels Sprouts
½ c: 78 mcg (98% DV)
½ cup: 82 mcg (over 100% DV)
6) Broccoli
½ c: 46 mcg (58% DV)
7) Dairy (fermented)
½ c: 10 mcg (10% DV)
8) Prunes
½ c: 52 mcg (65% DV)
9) Cucumbers
1 medium: 49 mcg (61% DV)
10) Dried basil
1 Tbsp: 36 mcg (45% DV)
Try consuming 2-3 of these vitamin k rich foods daily.
Top Health Benefits of Vitamin K
Heart Health
Vitamin K has been shown to help prevent calcification of arteries, one of the leading causes of heart attacks. It works by carrying calcium out of the arteries and not allowing it to form hard plaques.
Healthy Bones
Vitamin K increases the amount of a specific protein required to maintain bone calcium, reducing the risk of osteoporosis. Some studies on vitamin K have even found that high intakes of vitamin K stop bone loss in people with osteoporosis.
Cancer Prevention
Vitamin K has been shown to be effective in reducing the risk of prostate, colon, stomach, nasal, and oral cancers. One study even found that high doses of vitamin K helped patients with liver cancer stabilize and even improve their liver function.
What kinds of vitamin K dietary supplements are available?
Vitamin K is found in multivitamin/multimineral supplements. Vitamin K is also available in supplements of vitamin K alone or of vitamin K with a few other nutrients such as calcium, magnesium, and/or vitamin D. Common forms of vitamin K in dietary supplements are phylloquinone and phytonadione (also called vitamin K1), menaquinone-4, and menaquinone-7 (also called vitamin K2).
Am I getting enough vitamin K?
Vitamin K deficiency is very rare. Most people in the United States get enough vitamin K from the foods they eat. Also, bacteria in the colon make some vitamin K that the body can absorb. However, certain groups of people may have trouble getting enough vitamin K:
Newborns who don't receive an injection of vitamin K at birth
People with conditions (such as cystic fibrosis, celiac disease, ulcerative colitis, and short bowel syndrome) that decrease the amount of vitamin K their body absorbs
People who have had bariatric (weight loss) surgery
What happens if I don't get enough vitamin K?
Severe vitamin K deficiency can cause bruising and bleeding problems because the blood will take longer to clot. Vitamin K deficiency might reduce bone strength and increase the risk of getting osteoporosis because the body needs vitamin K for healthy bones.

Calcutta: The Busan Asian Games conquerors from Bengal Saraswati Saha and Soma Biswas touched down on the city Friday amidst huge reception with determination and hunger for greater success.
With eyes wide in wonder at being hemmed in by hundreds of fans and aficionados moments after their arrival in the Netaji Subhash Airport in the evening, the golden girls declared their ultimate target was Athens.
Asian Games gold is something Ill never forget in life. But I want to make it even more unforgettable with an Olympic medal in 2004, said Saraswati.
Such optimism was also unmistakably present in Somas words. Nothing can match an Olympic medal, she remarked.
Saraswati, who won the 200m gold in Busan, however, attributed her success as much to her honesty and commitment to the goal as her predecessor Jyotirmoyee Sikdars lack of faith in the Bengal girl.
Yes, her comments (Saraswati not a medal hope) fired me up, she admitted. It inspired me and helped me run better, she said.
Saraswati even made it clear she would not die away like Jyotirmoyee. The success in Busan has made me more determined to perform better. There is no question of pondering over other things than athletics till the Olympics, she said.
Interestingly, Fridays reception, to some extent, was a throwback to the return of Jyotirmoyee after winning the 400m and 800m in the Bangkok Asian Games four years ago. However, she soon bade goodbye to track and settled down in household chores.
The Sahagunge-based athlete even brushed aside such view that Sri Lankas Susanthika Jayasinghes presence in the 200m would have made a significant change in her place on the podium. Susanthika may be a tough hurdle, but dont forget, I have the best time in 200m now, maintained Saraswati, oozing in confidence.
In a way, it was also Somas reply to critics who said she was not committed to her race. I hope these medals (a silver in heptathlon and a gold in 4x400m relay) will make them (the detractors) think otherwise, Soma said, but did not elaborate further.
However, for Tarak Kumar Biswas, who came to the city with his wife to receive their daughter, Somas success now may lead to a few turns for better in their livelihood.
The place where we live at Ranaghat (in Nadia district) is devoid of any proper civic amenities. There is hardly a good supply of electricity. Telephone lines often get defective and remain so for long. Even we could not talk to Soma in Busan after she won the medals, lamented Biswas. I hope things will change now in our village.
Earlier, a convoy of about 50 cars, coupled with officials from state athletic bodies and hundreds of fans, gathered in the airport to receive the athletes. But what followed their arrival was absolute pandemonium in the name of security.
First, the airport police directed the waiting journalists and lensmen towards a wrong entry point, saying the athletes would come out from there. As the crowd homed in on that point, Saraswati and Soma were taken out through a different point.
By the time the craftiness was realised, the police had already put up a barricade around Soma and Saraswati and even chased away people, including scribes and officials, who tried to get nearer to them.
Thereafter, the duo was virtually snatched away by the officials of Rajarhat Gopalpur Municipality, where they were received with gold chains, bouquets and other presentations.
Apart from state youth affairs minister Mohammed Salim, there was no other representative from the state government. He, too, appeared far too aloof from the hoopla around.

College Credits for Business, Management & Marketing Technology
Making More of High School
Taking college course while still in high school is a great way to get first-hand experience as to what college work will be like.
But what's really great is that Early College concurrent enrollment and dual enrollment classes may count toward your high school graduation requirements while giving you a jump start on college. The key is to work closely with your high school counselor to make sure you choose the right classes.
Types of Classes
Concurrent enrollment courses, also known as Direct Credit courses, are college classes offered at your high school during the regular school day and taught by high school teachers who have been credentialed as college instructors. Your guidance office can tell you what is available for the upcoming year.
Dual enrollment classes are offered at any LMC or SMC campus, or at your high school if taught by college faculty. You can select any class offered by either college as a dual enrollment class. It is important for you to work with your high school guidance counselor to see how the college classes you are taking may apply towards your high school graduation requirements.
To participate in concurrent enrollment and dual enrollment classes, you must first meet the eligibility requirements of your high school. You must also show that you are ready to handle college level work. Work with your high school guidance counselor to find out if you qualify.
Concurrent enrollment and dual enrollment classes can save you money. With prior approval, area high schools will pay the tuition and fees associated with the college classes you are taking. To find out what your school policy is, check with your guidance counselor or Career and Technical Education Director.
How to Get Started
Meet with your high school guidance counselor, or Career and Technical Education Director. He or she can help you determine which college classes may count towards your high school graduation requirements, which college classes are available to you, and which classes fit your college and career goal.

When things go wrong there is an understandable tendency to want to prevent future disasters and a less commendable one to find a scapegoat and leap to obvious solutions. Two papers in this week's issue remind us of the limitations of that approach.
On p 499 Charlotte Paul uses the experience in New Zealand after a hospital disaster to warn "against believing that internal self regulation by the medical profession is useless and should be discarded." In the 1960s a study into cervical cancer at the National Women's …

Milwaukee Soldier Turning the Desert Green in Iraq
worthy developments have occurred within the early stages of this project?
They recently started
compressing the aluminum cans, plastic plates and utensils. Also, we are adding
an additional 45 bins to the COB, pushing the number up to 76 [with a goal of
positive outcomes have emerged?
One of the positives is
Iraqis have been able to get jobs. They've hired 12 additional people, and
everyone's real responsive, helpful and eager to assist. I have a waiting list
now with about 30 people who want bins, which aren't included in the additional
45. These are people who call me or e-mail me saying, "Hey, we want a bin," or,
"Is it possible to get two?" Also, on Aug. 7 [Kareem] made an Iraqi-wide
recycling program which covers eight bases.
do you hope to see materialize in Iraq's recycling future?
That, before we
transition, Kareem starts having receptacles in the villages and pushing the
need to recycle in those areas. That's where it will ultimately benefit
[people] and where the most waste and landfills are. It is a health concern as
well. And we could title it as better health, better resources and better
environment for all. Also, the more bins you have, the more areas you spread it
out, the more people you can employ.
do you feel is vital about this project and worthy of public acknowledgement?
It's improving the air quality of the COB for the coalition forces, civilians and army. It's drastically eliminating the amount of waste that goes into the landfills, while showing the Iraqis that, "Hey, we can produce things from the things we consume." [Ultimately, we're] striving forward to the future, and really showing how we've come over here and stressed the importance of things we do all the time. People [in the United States, for example] don't see the benefit because it just goes away. You don't see the landfills, you are not living in the proximity of them, so you're not really affected, but here it's totally different.
it different?
Because there's a village out here where you'll see mounds of trash and a house will be 5 meters away. Areas that aren't in the city don't get the benefit of having the city governments pick up their trash. They have to do the best they can with the resources they have. Therefore, Mr. Kareem wants to do a lot of this stuff humanitarianly, picking it up and assisting them on his own.

Is it okay if you and your friend with benefit sleepover together?
Or will it make things more awkward? What about saying "I love you" to each other?
Have an opinion?
its ok
It's fine to spend the night with each other. Saying "I love you" seems to imply that you want to be more than friends with benefits, though.
He definitely doesn't want to be more than friends so I don't know why he keeps on saying I love you.
I don't see that being an issue
You cannot undo this action. The opinion owner is going to be notified and earn 7 XPER points.

After about fifteen minutes I go to see how high the battery has charged up and it's down to 20 percent! So that means even plugged into the wall it's draining the battery? :x

"Game changer" is a term you hear often when people talk about how technology has changed their industry.
Back in 1973 the economy (and the country) was facing an economic crisis much like it is today. One company that was able to use this to their advantage was Burger King. They read their customer base and saw an opportunity to separate themselves from the pack by telling customers "Have it your way!" And they did.

 Drew Gerber, CEO of Blue Kangeroo and creator of PitchRate.com, says "Burger King knew that in a tough economy frustrations were high and if you could give your customer just what they wanted—instead of what you wanted them to have—they'd keep coming back for more. With all the choices available today this personal touch is even more important now than ever."

 If your business model was developed during a "high" or a "boon" in your market, you may need to rethink your strategy, he adds.

 Following are eight tips businesses can employ to let customers "have it their way."

 1. Reconnect with old friends and clients. Find out how you can make a difference to what they are up to? Some great ideas can come from listening to what sorts of problems people already in your network are facing. Offering solutions is the shortest road to success.

 2. Have it your way and hit the highway. With airline prices the lowest they've been in years, it is cheaper than ever to have a face to face, which can make all the difference in this impersonal Internet world.

 3. Ask not what your customers can do for you, ask what you can do for you customers. Never underestimate the power of directly asking "How are we doing? What are some areas you see where can improve?" You might be surprised at the answers!

 4. Be creative. Let your personality shine through. If you can find solutions and ideas that are fun and interesting to you, your customers will see it too.

 5. Go above and beyond the call of duty. It is those little extras that don't cost you much, but have the potential to make all difference. Take a few extra minutes to shine.

 6. Surprise! Take a chance and don't be afraid to follow your instincts down the road less traveled.

 7. Shut up and listen. Listen to all of it the good, the bad and the ugly. Often times your customers have insights and answers they aren't aware of. Being a good listener helps you ask the right questions and get to the heart of the matter.

 8. Acknowledgment. Make sure your customers know that you're not only listening, but that you're hearing them. Point out solutions or successes that have come directly from customer

The interior produces a calm environment and the spacious cabin provides a powerful position for the driver as well as plenty of room for up to 5 passengers to sit in comfort.
The Ford EcoSport uses tried and tested Fiesta mechanicals to offer buyers a front-wheel drive car with added ride height and chunky good looks. Now it's got a pokier 1.0 EcoBoost 140PS petrol engine at the top of the range, while more recent versions also boast a smarter interior, cleaner engines and more equipment. It all sounds quite promising.
Ford didn't rush into bringing us a supermini-based Crossover model. Indeed, the market was awash with the things by the time the brand brought us its own take in this genre, the Fiesta-based EcoSport, in the Spring of 2014. Even so, there were signs that all was not quite right with the product planning. Early buyers questioned the car's refinement, its driving dynamics, its interior and the need to drive around with a huge great spare wheel hanging off the back of the tailgate. Fortunately though, Ford was listening.
So, the brand has been continually moving to rejuvenate the car. Tweaks to the suspension have improved the ride plus there's greater refinement, a smarter cabin and the option to do without the rear-mounted spare wheel. More recently, a pokier 140PS 1.0-litre EcoBoost petrol engine has been added in at the top of the ange. Otherwise though, this car is much as before, with chunky looks that offer up a bit of Amazonian attitude, even if in truth, this car is more CBeebies than SAS in its take on hostile streetlife. Let's check it out.
The EcoSport now gets a choice of four engines, three petrol units and one diesel. The 1.5-litre diesel now boasts 95PS, 22PS less than before. Most EcoSport buyers though, will continue to choose a petrol option, possibly the old 112PS 1.5 Ti-VCT unit but more probably Ford's innovative 125PS 1.0-litre EcoBoost engine. It makes 0-62mph in 12.7s on the way to 112mph. If you want more performance, there's also now a 140PS version of this unit in the top Titanium S derivative.
On the road dynamics have improved since the original launch thanks to suspension retuning with revised rear twist beam suspension and more carefully considered spring and damper rates for chassis optimisation, plus a 10mm reduction in ride height and optimised Electronic Stability Control and power steering systems. Crossovers of this kind need to drive as much like the superminis they're based on as possible. From here on, the signs are that this one will.
As before, there's no 4x4 option, but you do get a great raised driving position and a comprehensive package of driver assistance technologies, including Electronic Stability Program and Hill Launch Assist.
The key visual change made to this car since its original launch is that you no longer have to have a huge great spare wheel pinned to the back window - though that option's still available if you want it. It means that the car's existing attributes come over with a more contemporary air. As before, the almost Aston Martin-style front grille looks good, the glasshouse is elegant, the headlights and wheelarch treatment is very deft and the stance of the car is better than it has any right to be.
Inside, there's a restyled instrument cluster with a chrome surround, a light dimming function, plus there are chrome tips for the window switches and the handbrake lever's easier to get at. Small changes to be sure, but they promise to give the cabin more of a quality feel. For vehicles without the spare wheel, the rear swing-gate has been revised to allow for easier partial opening where space is limited. That side-hinged tailgate still accesses a load space that Ford reckons is big enough to swallow a 560-litre washing machine - once the 60/40 split rear seats are folded, that is.
There are three trim levels - 'Zetec', 'Titanium' and 'Titanium S'. Expect to pay from around £14,600 for entry-level petrol versions of this car, with a £1,500 premium if you want the Powershift automatic. The 1.5-litre diesel variant starts from just over £16,000. You can also talk to your dealership about a sportier-looking 'S' variant that gets the pokier 1.0 EcoBoost 140PS petrol engine, along with features like a black roof, mirror caps, 17-inch alloy wheels, a rear diffuser and privacy glass. There's are partial leather seats on Titanium models and options include sat nav technology and a rear view camera.
Equipment levels across the mainstream range are strong. Expect to find equipment items like keyless entry, rear parking sensors and Ford's SYNC voice-activated in-car connectivity system as well as SYNC Emergency Assistance. In addition, this crossover offers Ford's SYNC AppLink set-up, which enables customers to voice-control smartphone apps from the driver's seat. Ford SYNC with Emergency Assistance directly connects the vehicle occupants to local emergency services operators after an accident, in the correct language for the region using information from the vehicle's on-board GPS unit and mobile network to pinpoint the accident location.
Economy and emissions aren't too far off the vehicle this car is based upon, the Fiesta. There's been some small controversy around the 1.0-litre EcoBoost engine not making anything like its claimed fuel economy figures in real world conditions, but that can be said of many small capacity turbocharged petrol engines. It's just a quirk of the NEDC fuel testing program. This 125PS variant claims to manage 52.3mpg on the combined cycle and 125g/km of CO2, while for the 140PS model, the figures are 52.3mpg and 125g/km. The base 1.5 Ti-VCT engine delivers 44.8mpg and 149g/km. Finally, there's the 1.5 TDCi diesel which manages 64.2mpg and 115g/km.
In this guise, the Ford EcoSport looks a more promising prospect. It's more of a crossover and less of a small SUV - which is what buyers seem to want. And, as before, its practical and decently equipped. Ride and refinement are now very good by class standards too - and the SYNC connectivity AppLink system is just brilliant.
All these reasons will combine with the small Crossover segment's current popularity to ensure that Ford will probably sell as many of these as they can import. My daughter, for example, would love one. It is, as ever, a case of giving the market what it wants.

My wife and I rented the Frangipani #2 villa and found it very spacious, comfortable and furnished with all you may wish: Fully equipped kitchen, dishwasher, washing machine, fridge, crockery and cutlery, TV, internet, a barbecue ... you name it.
In particular we liked the spacious patio with the nice splash pool, overlooking a quiet tropical garden.
The villa is located in a gated community and appears very safe and quiet. It's a five minute drive to Rodney Bay with its shops and restaurants, and a 20min. drive to Castries, the busy capital. Other sights and attractions are less than 30min. drive (e.g. Cas-en-Bas beach resort, Smugglers Cove, Rainforest Adventures, Pigeon Island, Marigot Bay).
The staff at Gateway Villas were very friendly and attentive, both before and during our rental. Check-in was easy and straight forward, and during our stay the maids were taking excellent care of us.
Definitely a recommendation for those who prefer an individual place to stay to a busy "all inclusive" hotel.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- The 7 acre of tranquil, prime property is to the north of the island in a hotel residential area called Cap Estate. 5 minutes drive away is Rodney Bay, the real life of the north.

Read about the Hotcourses Student Ambassador project where students can earn money by collecting reviews from international students.
Read about the Hotcourses Student Ambassador project where students can earn money by collecting reviews from international students.
UPDATE: Please get in touch with Paul Ellett to find out more about this scheme currently. We're always looking for current, past and future international students to write blogs and provide photos & videos, in addition to collecting reviews.
Here at Hotcourses Abroad, we've launched a brand new initiative to source international student ambassadors on campus....with a very enticing incentive for them.
We're looking for (domestic and international) students on campuses in our 10 study destinations, as well as graduates, to collect reviews from international students. In return, you can earn upwards of £300/$500/AUD550/RM1640 in cash or vouchers.
Sounds simple right? That's because it is!
Student reviews are crucial to our site because our users read about the experiences of others when considering where to study themselves. These reviews include what an international student enjoys most about studying at their university or college; how helpful and supportive the staff and professors are; what there is to do outside of class; challenges they have overcome; how studying there has contributed to their career goals; and any advice that possible future students would value or should know.
As a student ambassador, all you have to do is collect reviews from international students, using copies of our review card and then upload them to the site. Tell us when you have reached one of the targets below, for which you will receive the corresponding amount.
30 reviews= £50/$83/AU$93/RM275
+30 more reviews = +£100/$166/AU$186/RM550
+40 more reviews = +£150/$250/AU$278/RM828
Total = 100 reviews for £300/$500/AUD550/RM1640
*We can either offer you your reward in cash via money transfer or cheque, or in Google Play/Amazon/iTunes vouchers.
Please get in touch with us before collecting any reviews so we can find out a bit about you and brief you fully.
Get in touch with Paul Ellett if you are interested in becoming a student ambassador and collecting reviews for us.
Paul Ellett is the editor for Hotcourses Abroad. His role is to plan, produce and share editorial, videos, infographics, eBooks and any other content to inform prospective and current international students about their study abroad experience.

"…The whole thing sounds like jamming and improvising with fantastic solos and thrilling interplay, sometimes relaxed sometimes aggressive, always attracting. For example: Bailey and White are demonstrating for 7 minutes what "Drum & Bass" does mean to jazz men. One can use this instruments in another than a stupid way. If you like modern intelligent fusion by a small group, mixed with wonderful relaxed acoustic guitar tracks, here`s one for you." ~sa-cd.net
Following the success of John Barleycorn Must Die, Traffic planned a concert album for the fall of 1970, and it got as far as a test pressing before being canceled. A recording was necessary to satisfy the terms of British label Island records' licensing deal with American label United Artists, which had provided for five albums, of which four had been delivered. With Island starting to release its own albums in the U.S., the UA contract had to be completed, and hopefully not with the potentially lucrative studio follow-up to John Barleycorn Must Die.
The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys marked the commercial and artistic apex of the second coming of Traffic, which had commenced in 1970 with John Barleycorn Must Die.

Crude Oil Prices
February 9, 2012 by staff
Crude Oil Prices, Oil for March delivery was on the rise during the last trading session. Oil prices moved higher during the last session due, in part, to the government data which posted regarding U.S. crude inventory.
According to the report, U.S. crude supplies increased by only 300,000 barrels last week. This mark was below the mark of over 2 million thatanlysts had been anticipating. The Energy Information Administration reported that U.S. demand for petro dropped and as a result, fewer barrels were brought in to replenish the U.S. stockpiles. Oil price finished the day on the positive side of break-even.
Oil price Gas Price End of Day Close Review:
Light crude oil for March closed the last trading session higher by .30 percent, positive .30, at 98.71 per barrel.
Heating oil for March finished the last session lower by .04 percent, negative by .0014, at 3.19 per gallon.

As a former Brumbies player, I couldn't have been prouder on Tuesday night to watch a group of young guys become the first Australian provincial team to beat the British and Irish Lions in 42 years.
Forget that the strengths of both teams were compromised, it was a historic victory for the Brumbies and a huge tick for coach Jake White's game plan.
The Wallabies should use that game plan as a blueprint for for their approach against the Lions in the opening Test in Brisbane on Saturday night.
But is it also be an indication of where Australia needs to head with the appointment of its next coach?
The future of Wallabies coach Robbie Deans is, once again, a hot topic.
This series against the British and Irish Lions will be defining, because you can be assured the Australian Rugby Union is building a dossier of candidates to lead the Wallabies to the 2015 Rugby World Cup.
It could well be that Deans retains that position if the Wallabies can enjoy success against the Lions. But I do not believe that in his six-year tenure there has been any improvement in the Wallabies' style or results.
In his recent book, New Zealand All Black skipper Richie McCaw was critical of Deans' method of needing to do it all his way, predominantly without a robust and effective support staff.
Deans obviously has learnt from that and has put together a comprehensive coaching team at the Wallabies, including former Australian players Andrew Blades and the recently retired Nathan Sharp.
But there are other candidates in the wings, too. Michael Cheika, Ewen McKenzie and Jake White will all be eagerly viewing the Lions Test series.
White has transformed the Brumbies from a team of champions to a champion team. Adding the scalp of the Lions further enhances his claims.
With a strong support team of Stephen Larkham and Laurie Fisher, White has put Brumbies rugby back on the map.
White has already won a World Cup with South Africa and he openly harbours an ambition to become the first coach to win a second.
He encourages a conservative, simplistic and aggressive game style. It was successful in transforming the Springboks and now it is successful with the Brumbies.
A former teammate of mine, Ewen McKenzie, is also credited with a major transformation.
Having led the Waratahs during their most successful period in Super Rugby, he moved to Queensland and has led the Reds from being battlers to Super Rugby champions.
The Reds style has not only proved successful on the rugby field, it has led to record numbers in membership and sponsorship.
His ability to engage the community and build the club's brand has been exceptional.
Cheika has more recently appeared at Super Rugby level, but I have firsthand experience of his methods.
I was coached by him at Randwick and he was the best coach I played under.
You can see his Randwick background in the way his teams use the ball and play expansive and exciting rugby.
He transformed Leinster from a team that was always competitive to a champion team.
Many of the Irish players in the Lions team would be thanking Cheika for their transformation into international players.
Cheika's Waratahs have shown some real glimpses of class. In his second year in control, the Tahs should show further improvement.
With good quality coaching stocks waiting in the sidelines there is pressure on Deans.
I can't wait for this series to kick off.
Coming from Irish stock, I understand how passionate the northern hemisphere is about the British and Irish Lions. There is a carnival atmosphere whenever they play.
The Lions Test series is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for rugby players and one of the real highlights of any player's career.
To all Wallabies supporters, I urge you: be bold, wear gold. And may the best team win.
■Owen Finegan played 90 matches for the ACT Brumbies and 56 Tests for Australia.

Burglar busted after his tooth was found in victim's home
A burglar was caught after victims discovered one of his discarded teeth in their washing machine.
Criminal Lee Francis, 39, had an incisor dislodged as he scrapped with a homeowners in Castle Bromwich on May 8 as he tried to loot the property.
The specimen containing the bungling burglar's DNA was discovered two months later and Francis was handed jail term of more than six months, West Midlands Police said.
