Hohn Manufacturing, Inc., of Fenton, Mo., has agreed to pay a $23,776 civil penalty to the United States for selling a canceled version of a commercial disinfectant product whose labeling was also missing legally required environmental and toxicity information.
According to an administrative consent agreement filed by EPA Region 7 in Kansas City, Kan., a representative of the Missouri Department of Agriculture (MDA) documented the violations of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) during a routine inspection of Hohn's facility in February 2010.
MDA's inspection documented that on at least five occasions between December 2008 and September 2009, Hohn produced and distributed Glidclean 25/150 25% Pine Type Disinfectant under the name of Hohn Pine D.
EPA cancelled the registration of Glidclean 25/150 25% Pine Type Disinfectant in October 2003. Sales of existing stocks of the product by its registrant, Millennium Specialty Chemicals, and by its distributors, including Hohn, were prohibited after January 15, 2004.
The inspection also revealed that the labeling of the Hohn Pine D distributed by Hohn was false and misleading and incorrectly classified the toxicity of the product. The label was also missing a required environmental statement, describing when and under what conditions the product should be applied, used or disposed.

|Assessing the U.S. Need for Retaining a Nuclear First Strike Option In the Current International Security Climate
|Chyba, Christopher
|Woodrow Wilson School
|Class Year:
|Retaining the option to use nuclear weapons first in conflict has been a recurring theme in U.S. nuclear weapons policy. The 2010 Nuclear Posture Review deliberately leaves open the option for the United States to use nuclear weapons first under "extreme circumstances." The purpose of this paper is to evaluate these "extreme circumstances" and determine whether the United States can safely take the first-use option off the table, thereby reducing the role of nuclear weapons in its national security strategy. To that end, the central question of this thesis is whether there are any realistic military contingencies today that would justify maintaining a possible first-use nuclear doctrine. I explore three reasons why the United States might decide to threaten, or actually use, nuclear weapons first: 1. To deter or respond to conventional aggression 2. To deter or respond to chemical or biological attacks 3. To pre-empt an adversary's use of nuclear weapons While there has not been a third world war in the nuclear age, there is a significant positive association between nuclear weapons possession and lower-level conflicts. Moreover, given U.S. conventional superiority, the U.S. does not need nuclear weapons to counter conventional aggression. Because nuclear first use would bring disproportionate destruction in such low-level conventional conflicts, such threats would not be credible. A nuclear first strike would only be appropriate (and credible) in a situation in which the United States or an ally was facing an existential threat. These conditions are few and improbable, and the need for nuclear first use threats can be mitigated through other means. For instance, developing defense measures that reduced the impact of chemical and biological attacks may be a more credible deterrent to actors considering such attacks than the threat of nuclear retaliation. Failing this, the United States would be capable of a large-scale conventional attack that would be a more proportionate response to a chemical or biological attack. In the case of a terrorist chemical or biological attack, threatening a response with technologies such as unmanned aerial systems that are capable of more surgical strikes may be a more effective deterrent than nuclear weapons. Though a nuclear strike may currently be the only option to preemptively counter an imminent nuclear attack by an adversary, the intelligence and operational challenges are too great to risk the consequences of pre-emptive action. In a severe crisis, the continued option to use nuclear weapons first risks creating instabilities that increase the chances of miscalculation, misunderstandings and escalation. The impact of U.S. declaratory policy should not be underestimated and a no-first-use (NFU) declaration may contribute significantly to strategic stability. For those who find NFU too constraining and worry about the impact on allies, an alternative, intermediary policy is proposed at the end of this paper that could be a step in the direction of NFU. It would allow the U.S. to respond – but not preemptively – to large-scale non-nuclear aggression with nuclear weapons, but only when its or its allies' survival was at stake. If the United States is committed to reducing nuclear dangers, NFU (or at the very least, a declaratory policy raising the threshold for first use) should be one of the first necessary changes in U.S. nuclear policy.

"627" is the nineteenth episode of Lilo & Stitch: The Series. It aired on November 24, 2003.
Stitch becomes egotistical after beating his experiment catching record, so Jumba decides to teach him a lesson by activating his brand new experiment, 627. Being more powerful than Stitch with none of his weaknesses, Stitch may meet his match when 627 escapes Jumba's custody and falls into the hands of Gantu. 627 works for Gantu capturing experiments and proves unbeatable until Reuben, who's had enough of 627's abuse, calls Lilo and reveals that 627's weakness is laughter. Lilo and Stitch use this to defeat 627, and as it is impossible to turn him good, they use a dehydrator to turn him back into a pod. However, Jumba is shown to have an Experiment 628 whose pod he stores on his ship.
Experiments mentioned
- Moral: If you want to feel good about yourself, be humble and don't let success go to your head.
- 627's creation was oddly foreshadowed at the end of Stitch! The Movie.
- According to Pleakley, Jumba's favorite dish is the purée.
- When Stitch taunts 627, his butt is slightly overscale.
- 627 is the only experiment in the series that could not be rehabilitated and the only one that was never given an actual name, yet he was nicknamed "Evile" by certain fans.
- In spring 2004, Disney Channel held an online poll that asked viewers for their favorite experiments and episodes from Season 1 of the series. According to the top 10 results of that poll, "627" was the #5 most popular episode and experiment.[1]

Hi Martin, We use springframework for the listener and the listener container - we did not set the listener/container to be exclusive - not sure if you can do so in spring. However, I don't know if that is a default setting in spring - will look into it. We don't use message group either - so any consumer listening on the queue can take any msg in any order. Thanks for the suggestion. --- On Thu, 6/9/11, Martin C. <email@example.com> wrote: From: Martin C. <email@example.com> Subject: Re: Not able to load-balance messages in a cluster using PrefetchPolicy To: firstname.lastname@example.com Date: Thursday, June 9, 2011, 11:41 AM Hi, just as further input: have you checked you didn't declare an exclusive consumer and you didn't use message groups?

Best Golf Shoes Reviews
If you're here just to find the best golf shoes and really can't afford to take the time to read the excellent reviews and buying advice prepared by our researchers, this short paragraph will highlight all the vital information. After looking at owner feedback, expert review sites, overall brand quality and even social media activity we have concluded that the Adidas Men's Tour 360 are the best model for sale because these golf shoes come with a simplistic yet stylish design that will make even a beginner look and feel like a pro. The cleats are approved for club courses since they are designed to provide traction without tearing up the green. The full grain leather upper is durable, supportive and flexible so you can move and plant your feet naturally when you swing. These golf shoes also come with a slight lift in the heel for added support and stability. If the Adidas Men's Tour 360 are not available, you could consider the Adidas Men's Tech Response 4.0 as it is the second best option.

Buying guide
Knowing that a serious round of golf can take anywhere between 4 and 6 hours, and, in case you did not get a golf cart, you will end up walking several good miles, you surely need a solid pair of golf shoes. Although specialized golf shoes are not a requirement on all golf courses, it is highly advisable to get a good pair, if you want to enjoy the best comfort possible for your feet and, of course, to make the best out of your golf round. If you are looking for reliable golf shoes, this buying guide will help you identify a really good pair.
A good fit
As is the case with any type of footwear, a good fit is unbeatable when it comes to the wearer's comfort. For flat feet, a different design would be needed than for someone with no such problems. There are all kinds of foot conditions that may limit in your choice of a pair of golf shoes. Fortunately, there are manufacturers who care about their clients' wellbeing, so they address such problems, and you can even find golf shoes for plantar fasciitis. Make sure that your feet are perfectly comfortable in the shoes you will wearing, since you will end up spending several hours on the golf course, the time needed for all the 18 holes. If you have really large feet, make sure to buy an extra wide model, so you do not have to worry that your feet will suffer from being held too tight.
There is quite a wide variety of golf shoes on the market, beginning from the fact that there are models for ladies, and models for gentlemen. Besides the difference based on the wearer's gender, there are several types of golf shoes you need to learn about before making a purchase. Spiked shoes are the classic type, the one worn traditionally on the golf course. Back in the days, the only golf shoes expected on the golf course were those with metal spikes that offered extra stability and they did not get stuck in muddy areas. Their main disadvantage was that they tended to be pretty heavy. Due to the new technologies today, they are much more lightweight, and there are even waterproof models that offer superior comfort when you want to play golf in the rain.
In case going classic is not your style, a good choice is represented by spikeless golf shoes. These pretty much look like street sports shoes and they can be very stylish. You will notice that their rubber soles come with numerous dimples, whose role is to compensate for the lack of spikes, in order to provide you with extra stability. For the driving range or for real golf courses, they are a great choice. Golf boots are another category you may be interested in learning above. These look pretty much like hiking boots and they have the same properties, being resistant to water and providing extra warmth, when you want to enjoy a nice round of golf in winter. They tend to be more expensive, and they are not really widespread, but the good news is that they exist and can be used by golf enthusiasts who do not want to give up on their favorite sport in chilly weather. The last type to be mentioned is represented by golf sandals. They are a good choice for hot weather, and their open design allows you to keep your feet cool. They are not as resistant or stable or comfortable as regular golf shoes, but they are an alternative to consider in hot climates.
Lacing design
Normally, golf shoes come with laces, and this is the fashionable choice. However, with the need for convenience and comfort increasing, other styles for lacing have emerged. You can find golf shoes without laces, and there are some models equipped with Velcro straps, that are easier to put on than those with laces. On more expensive models, you may also find proprietary lacing systems that work automatically in order to provide the wearer with the best experience and comfort.
Top golf shoes in 2017
When playing golf, it is good to make sure that you are using the right shoes. This will ensure your comfort throughout the game and grant you the ability to move better. In this case, the best golf shoes reviews have identified some of the best choices currently available on the market, and these are showcased below.
Nike Zoom Advance

This also helps to provide a little extra support. You will appreciate the breathable mesh liner that works to keep your feet cool and dry, even on hot days. Even though these golf shoes are spikeless traction isn't a problem due to the sturdy synthetic sole.

Adidas Men's Tech Response 4.0

Two owners of a Bangladesh garment factory where 112 workers died in a fire two years ago have surrendered and sought bail after they were charged with murder.
The factory outside the capital, Dhaka, which produced clothing for big Western retailers, had no emergency exits and its location in an alley stopped firefighters from responding quickly to the deadly blaze in November 2012, a prosecutor said.
The investigation found that when the fire broke out, managers and security guards told workers it was part of a regular drill and it was too late for many to escape. Workers found the gates locked from outside as the fire engulfed the sprawling building, the investigation said.
The two owners of Tazreen Fashions - Delwar Hossain and his wife, Mahmuda Akter - appeared in court for a hearing late yesterday. They are among 13 people facing charges in the case, one of several deadly disasters that have exposed harsh and unsafe working conditions in Bangladesh's garment industry. A factory collapse in April last year killed more than 1,100 workers.
The impoverished South Asian nation earns more than US$20 billion a year from garment exports, mainly to the United States and Europe.
It is the first time that Bangladesh has sought to prosecute factory owners in the lucrative garment industry, which is the world's second largest after China.

I have this font on my harddrive somewhere but it's driving me nuts trying to remember it's name.
Please can someone identify it?
It's very similar to able and used on harry potter type stuff.
I've been looking for the designer(s) who put together "The Daily Prophet" paper for the Harry Potter movies. I'm sure I'm not the first to ask this. I know these guys made the typefaces: http://www.crazydiamond.co.uk/. That's as far as I could find though.
One of my good friends is in Orlando this weekend for the opening of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Islands of Adventure. I was flipping through her photos, when I saw this:
Now, I know that the wizards have previously established themselves to not be great graphic designers (see this thread), so I can excuse the mismatched alignments in the fares table. But you would think that without access to digital technology the wizarding world would provide some sanctuary from that oh-so-ubiquitous Arial. But no, even in the wizarding world it appears that Arial manages to make its presence felt.

I voted for unemployed and not looking for work. It is not a woman's right to expect to live off a man and for the man to buy her the new iPhone and everything she wants when she wants it but at the same time not work. I will not be used like that. If the man and woman agree on that lifestyle that is fine but if a girl just expects it she is not worth it and she only likes the man for his money. Don't get me wrong I love to spend money on a girl that is worth it but it should be at the man's choice not her demanding for it.32|11|0
I agree, though I never said she would demand he spend money on her.

London, Oct.25 (ANI): The Pakistan Army has been claiming huge success in the ongoing 'mother of all battles' in South Waziristan and has announced that the troops have captured Kotkai, the hometown of Taliban chief Hakimullah Mehsud, however analysts believe that all important extremist leaders have already escaped from the region and that the army has a long way to go before the offensive can actually be deemed successful.
While Pakistani media reports said that the military is advancing inside the Taliban's den with great speed, experts said the deeper the forces penetrate into the region the more the resistance they would face, and with the onset of the winter season trouble for the Pakistan Army is only going to expand.
"Nobody expects the top leadership or anyone who really matters in the TTP to still be in Kotkai.The Taliban leadership has most likely vacated the area and moved deeper into the territory," The Guardian quoted Stratfor's Kamran Bokhari, as saying.
More than that experts fear that offensive 'Raah-e-Nijat' would have a similar fate like many such operations in the past, with the military signing peace accords with the extremists.
Officials also opine that the real test of the security forces would start once they move deeper into the terror safe haven.
"The military's movement is faster than in their previous campaigns.But the more they get inside the sanctuary, the more they will be bogged down, said a former government official, who was posted in North Waziristan.
The news about the fall of Kotkai, which is strategically located on one of the three routes from where the army is moving in, came just hours after 22 militants were killed in a US drone attack in the region.
The missile strike is said to have targeted one of the important Taliban leaders, Faqir Muhammad, however, reports suggested he had moved away from his hideout minutes before the Predators struck. (ANI)

Pope Ends Visit to Armenia
YEREVAN (Combined Sources) — Pope Francis returned to the Vatican after concluding a successful visit to Armenia, which delighted the small nation as well as Armenians around the world.
The world should never forget nor minimize the Ottoman-era slaughter of Armenians, Pope Francis declared Saturday, even as he urged Armenians to infuse their collective memory with love so they can find peace and reconcile with Turkey.
Turkey, though, did not budge. In its first reaction to the Roman Catholic Church leader's recognition of the 1915 "genocide," Turkish Deputy Prime Minister Nurettin Canikli called the comments "greatly unfortunate" and said they bore the hallmarks of the "mentality of the Crusades."
Francis began his second day in Armenia by paying his respects at the country's imposing genocide memorial and greeting descendants of survivors of the 1915 massacres, who have been emboldened by his comments upon arrival that the slaughter of Armenians a century ago was a planned "genocide" meant to annihilate an entire people.
The pontiff presented a wreath at the memorial and stood, head bowed, in silent prayer before an eternal flame as priests blessed him with incense and a choir sang haunting hymns.
"Here I pray with sorrow in my heart, so that a tragedy like this never again occurs, so that humanity will never forget and will know how to defeat evil with good," Francis wrote in the memorial's guest book. "May God protect the memory of the Armenian people. Memory should never be watered-down or forgotten. Memory is the source of peace and the future."
He greeted descendants of the 400 or so Armenian orphans taken in by Popes Benedict XV and Pius XI at the papal summer residence south of Rome in the 1920s.
Also approaching Francis was Sosi Habeschyan, 68, and her sister; their mother was a genocide orphan adopted and raised by Danish missionary Maria Jacobsen, who worked in the Ottoman Empire in 1915 and wrote about the massacre.
Francis returned to the theme of memory during a Mass in Gumri, where several thousand people gathered in a square for his only public Mass of his three-day visit to Armenia.
"Peoples, like individuals, have a memory," he told the crowd from the altar. "Your own people's memory is ancient and precious."
Francis again raised the importance of memory at an evening prayer in Yerevan's Republic Square, drawing the largest crowds of his visit — about 50,000, according to Vatican estimates.
With the patriarch of the Apostolic Church, Karekin II, by his side and President Serzh Sargsyan in the front row, Francis said even the greatest pain "can become a seed of peace for the future."
Pope Francis defended using the term "genocide", saying Sunday that's how he has always referred to the massacre, he didn't mean anything offensive by it and that it would have been "very strange" to have avoided it.
Turkey accused Francis of adopting a "Crusades"-like mentality by terming the 1915 killings a "genocide" during his three-day visit to Armenia — a charge the Vatican strongly dismissed.
Asked Sunday en route home from Armenia why he decided to add "genocide" into his prepared remarks, Francis said it was simply the term that he had always used in Argentina, where he was close to the Armenian community.
"When we spoke of the Armenian extermination, the word we used was 'genocide.' I didn't know any other," he said. Only after arriving in Rome as pope did he learn of other phrases — the "Great Evil" or the "terrible tragedy" — and that "genocide" carried legal weight given Armenian claims for restitution.
But Francis said he decided to use the word Friday in his welcome speech at the Armenian presidential palace since he had said it before, St. John Paul II had said it before, and "it would have seemed very strange to not say it in Armenia."
He added: "I have never said it with an offensive spirit, but objectively."
Francis wrapped up his trip Sunday with calls for closer ties with Armenia's Oriental Orthodox church and a joint declaration with the Apostolic Church leader on the plight of Christians in the Mideast. He also visited a monastery near Armenia's closed western border with Turkey, where he and the Armenian patriarch released two white doves of peace.
But it was Francis' recognition on Day 1 that the 1915 slaughter by Ottoman Turks of an estimated 1.5 million Armenians constituted planned "genocide" that continued to reverberate.
Turkey issued a harsh rebuttal late Saturday, with Deputy Prime Minister Nurettin Canikli calling the comments untrue, "greatly unfortunate" and saying they bore the hallmarks of the "mentality of the Crusades."
On Sunday, Francis turned his attention to religious affairs, participating in an open-air liturgy on the grounds of the Armenian Apostolic Cathedral in Echmiadzin, the seat of the Oriental Orthodox church here. The landlocked nation of 3 million was the first nation in the world to adopt Christianity as a state religion in 301.
Amid haunting chants, Francis processed up and down the central walkway of the Echmiadzin complex alongside the patriarch, Catholicos Karekin II, both walking under a gold-brocaded canopy as incense furled around them. During the 2-hour service celebrated by Karekin, Francis stood to the side of the altar and offered a greeting calling for greater unity between the two churches.
"May an ardent desire for unity rise up in our hearts, a unity that must not be the submission of one to the other, or assimilation, but rather the acceptance of all the gifts that God has given to each," he said. "Let us pay heed to the younger generation, who seek a future free of past divisions."
The Armenian Apostolic church and a few other Oriental Orthodox churches split from the Catholic Church in the 5th century in a dispute over the divine and human natures of Jesus Christ. The division arose some six centuries before the Great Schism that split the rest of Orthodoxy from Rome.
While still divided over the primacy of the pope, the Apostolic and Catholic churches have friendly relations. Francis and his papal delegation stayed at the Echmiadzin cathedral complex as guests of Karekin.
The two men expressed their joint concern for Islamic extremist attacks against Christians in the Middle East.
"The martyrs belong to all the churches and their suffering is an 'ecumenism of blood' which transcends the historical divisions between Christians, calling us all to promote the visible unity of Christ's disciples," the declaration read.
It repeated a line from a 2001 declaration penned by St. John Paul II and Karekin that the slaughter of Armenians was the "first genocide of the 20th century," and hailed the progress made in warming relations.
After Sunday's liturgy and a formal luncheon, Francis headed west toward Armenia's border with Turkey to visit the Khor Virap monastery, one of the most sacred sites in Armenia. The monastery lies in the shadow of Mt. Ararat, where, according to legend, Noah landed his Ark after a great flood. He and Karekin released two white doves in a message of peace toward Turkey.
Pope Francis hailed the Vatican's "growing closeness" with the Armenian Apostolic Church and called for an eventual union between the two Christian denominations at the end of a three-day visit to Armenia on Sunday.
In a joint declaration, Francis and Catholicos Karekin II pledged to promote Christian unity around the world by further deepening relations between their ancient churches.
They also expressed concern at the "secularization" of contemporary societies, reaffirmed their opposition to same-sex marriage, condemned the persecution of Christians in the Middle East and urged world powers to end bloody conflicts in and outside the region.
"In this regard we also express our hope for a peaceful resolution of the issues surrounding Nagorno-Karabakh," they said in the statement signed at Karekin's headquarters in Echmiadzin, a small town near Yerevan.
After the signing ceremony, Francis and Karekin headed to the nearby historic monastery of Khor Virap where they prayed together and released two doves symbolizing peace towards Mount Ararat situated just a few kilometers away in Turkey.
Khor Virap was built at the site of a dungeon where St. Gregory the Illuminator, the first Armenian Catholicos, had been imprisoned before convincing King Tiridates III to adopt Christianity as Armenia's state religion.
Francis repeatedly paid tribute to Armenia's Christian heritage during the trip that set another milestone in a rapprochement between the Roman Catholic and Armenian churches. The two churches essentially ended their long-standing theological differences with a joint statement issued in 1996. In 2001, John Paul II became the first Pope to have ever visited Armenia.
Successive Armenian governments have similarly sought closer ties with the Vatican. President Serzh Sargsyan attended Francis's papal inauguration in 2013 and again visited the Vatican in 2014 and 2015.
Sargsyan, whose influential son-in-law is Armenia's ambassador to the Holy See, attended most of Francis's engagements in Armenia, including an ecumenical service held in Yerevan's biggest square on Saturday.
Francis and Karekin praised "the continuing and growing closeness in faith and love" between their churches. "Today we are convinced of the crucial importance of furthering this relationship, engaging in deeper and more decisive collaboration not only in the area of theology, but also in prayer and active cooperation on the level of the local communities, with a view to sharing full communion and concrete expressions of unity," they said in their declaration.
Francis made a case for a complete reunion when he attended and addressed an open-air Armenian Apostolic mass held by Karekin II in Echmiadzin on Sunday morning. He called for "a unity that must not be the submission of one to the other, or assimilation, but rather the acceptance of all the gifts that God has given to each."
"We and our people will always pray for you, my beloved Brother, and your endeavors for the sake of the welfare and peaceful life of humankind," Karekin said for his part.
The joint declaration by the two men stresses the importance of global Christian unity in the context of an "immense tragedy" suffered by ancient Christian communities in the Middle East. "The martyrs belong to all the Churches and their suffering is an 'ecumenism of blood' which transcends the historical divisions between Christians, calling us all to promote the visible unity of Christ's disciples," it says.
In a clear reference to Islamist extremism, the document condemns a "presentation of religion and religious values in a fundamentalist way."
Francis and Karekin further deplored the declining role of religion in many Christian nations. "The secularization of large sectors of society, its alienation from the spiritual and divine, leads inevitably to a desacralized and materialistic vision of man and the human family," they said. "In this respect we are concerned about the crisis of the family in many countries."
The declaration emphasizes that both churches believe that marriage can only be an act of "faithful love between man and woman."
Karekin's sermon delivered at the Echmiadzin mass contained emphatic defense of this and other religious values. He went as far as to assert that attempts to "build a world without God" are at the root of political, socioeconomic and even environmental problems facing humanity.
Greater Recognition for Genocide
Armenia expects more countries to recognize the 1915 massacre of Armenians in the Ottoman Empire as genocide after remarks by Pope Francis and the stance taken by Germany's parliament, President Serzh Sargsyan said.
Germany's lower house adopted a resolution this month declaring the killings of Christian Armenians by Ottoman forces in World War One a "genocide", a term used by many Western historians and parliaments, but rejected by Ankara.
During a visit to Armenia on Friday, the pope departed from his prepared text to use the term, angering Turks.
"The principled position of the pope and the views expressed by the Bundestag will pave the way for new recognitions by other nations," Sargsyan told Reuters in an interview.
"Germany is a very important and significant actor on the international stage and this [decision] will serve as a good example for other nations to follow and to learn from it," he said.
Sargsyan criticized Turkey's position over its aspiration to join the European Union, saying Ankara was trying to use a policy of dictatorship to bring pressure to bear on the bloc.
"I don't think that Turkey is … an actor that can impose its views, or exercise pressure, on the European Union," he said. "I don't honestly see any prospects that would pave the way for Turkey joining the EU."
Vatican Replies
The Vatican has defended the pope's stand on the Armenian genocide as an ideology aimed at bringing peace and reconciliation, not war, and rebuking Ankara's vocal criticism of Francis' alleged "crusader" mentality.
Repeated references to the 1915 Armenian genocide by the Ottoman Turks made by Pope Francis during his three-day visit to Armenia, has sparked condemnation by Turkish officials.
After the pontiff made his first statement on the topic as soon as he arrived in Yerevan on Friday, Turkish Deputy Prime Minister Nurettin Canikli called Francis' statements "greatly unfortunate" which Ankara does not "take seriously."
"The goal is to squeeze Turkey in the corner," said Canikli on Saturday, accusing Francis of siding with European Union values. "It is, unfortunately, possible to see all the reflections and traces of crusader mentality in the actions of the papacy and the pope."
On Sunday, the director of the Vatican Press Office strongly dismissed Turkish accusations of a 'Crusades' mentality when the pope used the word 'genocide' to describe the massacre of 1.5 million Armenians a century ago.
Father Federico Lombardi said that neither Francis' statements nor his actions ever suggested a Crusades-like mentality of the pontiff. The focus of Francis, according to Vatican is to resurrect the "spirit of dialogue."
"The pope is on no crusade," Lombardi said. "He is not trying to organize wars or build walls but he wants to build bridges… he has said no words against the Turkish people," Vatican Radio reported.
Despite steaming criticism from Turkey, the Pope has once again made a reference to the tragic events of last century when he remembered the "victims of hatred" for the third consecutive day, as he concluded his tour of Armenia.
May the Armenian Church walk in peace and may the communion between us be complete," Francis said at the conclusion of the Divine Liturgy in the Armenian Apostolic Cathedral in Etchmiadzin. "Let us respond to the appeal of the saints, let us listen to the voices of the humble and poor, of the many victims of hatred who suffered and gave their lives for the faith.
"Let us pay heed to the younger generation, who seek a future free of past divisions…may there be joined the light of the love that forgives and reconciles," Francis added.

Work Tips
Handling a Layoff
I just got an email from a friend whose company started layoffs and will continue layoffs due to the credit bubble coming apart.
Back long ago when I was paid to make paper airplanes and play checkers (strange story – for another time), I used to work at Boeing. Boeing is a company that lives in boom / bust cycles and layoffs were a fact of life.
An interesting fact I learned is: it's not a bad deal to be in the first lay off wave, since it's easier to find new work (the markets haven't been flooded yet by other people). Also you tend to get better incentives to go at the start of any problem… Ironically, I found it to be a problem that I was considered "valuable" and not laid off. The company used fear on its workers, telling us to be happy since we had a job and then treated workers without respect. So I did some calculations and determined it was best to leave in the first wave and not the other waves. This is often true, unless of course you really love your job… then you should stay. So when I stopped liking the job and it stopped being fun, I left immediately since bullshit is bullshit and is not pay in the least.
So I need to reinforce this lesson to anyone being laid off:
Don't take it personally. It's not a reflection of you… it's a reflection of poor management practices and chaos.
It's only a reflection of you, if you were doing a poor job. If this was the case… This means you are probably not in the right job to fit who you are. This leads me to the second lesson:
Being laid off from work can be good for some individuals. If you were not happy in the job or were doing poorly… getting laid off can be the event or burst of energy required to help a person redefine their life… not towards work , but towards what you want to be! I know many people who are doing what they love now in their new work… because of the energy given to them from being laid off.
The lesson being: be open to possibilities. When something seemingly bad happens, it's always possible, always, to make it a positive event! It isn't easy… but it's a good way to approach the problem while looking for new work.

Author | exchange4media News Service | Wednesday, Nov 03,2004 8:20 AM
Cola companies have always followed their own calling, almost never adhering to norms that other fast moving consumer goods (FMCG) companies follow. Whether it be advertising budgets, pricing or marketing initiatives, both Coca-Cola and Pepsi have generally followed a different path.
When the FMCG industry was still grappling with unrealistic price levels, the two unleashed their affordability strategy two years ago and just when the industry bigwigs were warming up to the pricing game, the two companies decided to increase prices in August this year.
In yet another surprise decision that bucks the trend of most FMCG companies increasing their advertising spends in 2004 to remain in the consumer's mind, Coca-Cola India has reduced its advertising spend between January and August this year by 20 per cent as compared with the same period last year, according to data by market research agency AdEx.
Pepsi's spends were also down by about 8 per cent till July but recovered there after and the company's total advertising budget has seen an increase of over 12 per cent between January and August 2004.
In fact, if one were to compare total adpsends of the two companies in 2004 with last year, Pepsi has beaten Coke to emerge the leader with Rs 58.88 crore total spend between January-August against Coke's Rs 50.87 crore, spanning television and print media advertisements.
When contacted, a Coke spokesperson said, "adspends have been optimised this year but the overall marketing spends remain at last year's levels". He said apart from advertising on television and in the print media, the company undertakes a whole host of marketing activities including below-the-line activities, consumer promotions, internet marketing, point of purchase material among others, and that the combined spends have been maintained at last year's levels.
PepsiCo India Chairman, Mr Rajeev Bakshi, said that while adspends were down in the first six months, the total spend in 2004 is expected to be up about 5 per cent over the last year. Significantly, adspends have been subdued despite several new initiatives by both companies this year. Besides, both the companies reduced spends for television as well as print ads between January and June this year - a peak season for soft drink consumption.
According to AdEx, Pepsi has hiked adspends on TV by about 22 per cent if one were to consider January-August 2004 to Rs 56 crore, while Coke's spends on TV during the same period witnessed a decline of about 17 per cent, from Rs 56.2 crore last year to Rs 46.8 crore during the corresponding period this year. Again, spending by the two companies in print media has declined all across eight months with Coke's spends down by more than 48 per cent to merely Rs 4 crore and Pepsi's down 55.44 per cent to Rs 2.78 crore.

Stayed three nights over new year, and found the hotel to be adequate for our needs. Air conditioning worked well, and the bed was comfortable, although we would have preferred a king size which the hotel does not have.
Housekeeping standards were not the highest - bathroom could have used more attention (hair on the floor, etc).
Bathroom was old, but functional. Furnishings are on the old side, but adequate, and for the price, the hotel represents good value in my opinion. The colonial building is quite beautiful. Location is good, if you want to be in downtown, rather than in the hotel zone on the beach.

Try clearing your browser cache and see if it returns, if it doesn't then try a different browser, if that doesn't work then restart the SpiceWorks application. If that still doesn't work then I would suspect either a browser plugin interfering or if you installed any plugins into SpiceWorks itself since it stopped working.
Oct 17, 2011 at 3:22 UTC
Hi Elijah,
Did anything change in your connectivity to the Internet? The quote stuff requires support from our server backend. If you can't connect to the spiceworks.com servers then the quote process doesn't work.

if anyone has a barracuda and updated their firmware recently then this is what you do...
1. Log into the barracuda Web Filter
2. Roll your mouse over Black/Accept then click the IP Block/EXEMPT tab
3.Under Source Add the IP of the spiceworks Server (Internal) and then add 255.255.255.255 for the subnet then click add
4. Under Destination do the same then click add
There will be 2 separate Lines for your spiceworks server IP. 1 for the source and 1 for the destination.
Hope this helps out some people!

Moraea Crispa - Indigenous South African Bulb - 10 Seeds
Seeds for Africa
Sorry, this item is out of stock
Moraea is a genus of plants in the family Iridaceae. The genus name is a tribute to the English botanist Robert Moore. Moraeas have iris-like flowers and were at first regarded as members of the genus Iris, but most of them are smaller than most irises and commonly they are more precise in shape and with a stiffer perianth and more definite markings. Some have strong, pleasant scents, while others have none to speak of. Plants of the genus now called Dietes once were considered to be in the genus Moraea, but were separated on the grounds that they were rhizomatous. In contrast, all Moraea species have corms.
Growing up to 20cm with a single leaf and tiny blue-mauve flowers with yellow/orange nectar guides which open late afternoon in the spring months.
USDA Zone - 8
Season to Sow - Autumn

Today, my guest is children's author Rebecca Ryals Russell. Her books are coming to us from MuseItUp publishing
1. Please tell me how long you've been writing, and why you decided to become a writer.
I've written all my life-poems, song lyrics, stories-and illustrated or used photography for them. In college I had quite a bit published. I didn't really pursue becoming an 'author' until I retired from teaching and could concentrate on it.
2. Are you a full-time writer or a part-time writer, and how do you organize your writing time?
As my family would attest, I'm definitely a full-time writer. I sit at my desk in the morning, usually around 9:30 (after riding the bike and eating breakfast) and go to bed around 2 or 3am. The entire time I'm writing one story or another, working on promotional things, emailing, surfing writing blogs, etc.
3. What influences your writing?
When a story idea pops into my head, it's like a pimple you can't leave alone. You pick at it until it festers and has to come out. Eeww.
4. Is this your first published work? What other types of writing have you done?
This is my first published novel. I have had short stories, poetry and photography published many years ago.
5. Why did you choose to write a children's story?
I wrote a children's story for the same reason I became a teacher. I love to lead a child to discovery and wonder then enlightenment. I'm hoping this series will do that for the readers. It's meant to open eyes.
6. What was the process of creating this book from the first idea to the final published book?
This baby has been growing for over thirty years, if you include all of the starts and stops and thinking I did over the course of those years. It took me six months to plan the series. I had to create my world of Dracwald, every aspect of it. Then I researched demons, dragons, magical creatures, Latin derivations and baby names. Next I created my characters. Then it took me six months to write the original story. It ended up being gargantuan and I broke it into the first two books Odessa and Harpies. For the next two years, at least, I revised and rewrote Odessa until I changed it to first person point-of-view and learned who Myrna really was. Then the story flowed and stuck. The shopping around for a publisher took another year.
7. What are your thoughts on traditional versus self-publishing?
Had I not found MuseItUp Publishing, I was ready to self-publish. In today's publishing world it's a viable method for getting your book to the public. The only draw-back has been authors who do not have their books professionally edited before self-pubbing. That gives all self-published books a bad name. I did the rounds of agents and publishers for two years, receiving many rejections. With each one I revised and looked for weak spots. By the time I became aware of MuseItUp, met Lea and her editors and fell in love with the family atmosphere they exuded, my story was ready. And they said so, too.
8. What is your marketing strategy?
Get my name in front of as many faces as I can. In a good way, of course. I belong to thousands of social sites and blogs-well, maybe not that many, but some days it feels like it. I started building my platform when I started writing the book and now, about five years later, it's just taking off. I've been asked to speak at my first Writer's Conference in April and I'm so excited.
9. What are your thoughts about children's writers needing an agent or not needing one?
I personally don't know what an agent would provide that I can't do for myself. Besides, our cut is already so pitiful, I'd hate to lose even more of it. If you self-publish, promote your brains out and have a salable, good product-the big traditional publisher will find YOU.
10. Where can people find out more about you and your writing?
As I said, I'm all over the Internet. The first place to look is my website. The Official Website of Rebecca Ryals Russell, Author at http://rryalsrussell.com. I've been working hard on the site and recently added some interactive pages-maps, illustrations of the monsters and Majikals showing where they appear on the map and more. I'm soon adding a shop with items portraying my book covers and illustrations.
11. Do you have any tips for writers who are new to children's literature?
Join Social Sites aimed at writing for children. http://YALitChat.com is the best along with my own grog (group blog) http://teenwordfactory.com where a bunch of us MG & YA authors write posts about writing for kids. http://Flapjacket.com is good. Others include http://obscurekidlitauthors.blogspot.com/, http://Totally4YA.com , http://childrenspublishing.blogspot.com. There are many, many more. Watch my blog for a future listing. And join SCBWI (Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators) then attend one of their conferences every year. Talk to other children's writers via blogs, Facebook, Twitter.
12. Please give us a brief synopsis about your current book and when and where it will be available.
Myrna Ashlin Watts is a high school Senior in Jacksonville, Fl when she is transported to a bizarre and primal planet corrupted by demon-dragons. And they want her DEAD. Her problem is, she has been recruited to kill them, too.
Reluctantly, and knowing it is her only way to get back home, she agrees to lead an army of six teens called The Vigorios- battling dragons and monsters while crossing swamps and mountains, forests and seas. She wrangles with mental scars of a demon attack when she was 16 and receiving a vision of those same demons killing her brother 2 years later, when three very different men join her quest—a seasoned demon/dragon-slayer who irritates but beguiles her, a tender and sweet mentor in whom she trusts completely and a roguishly handsome Scientist who sets her senses aflame. How is she expected to lead the others and keep everyone safe with so much inner turmoil? Whom can she trust, if anyone, even herself? How can anyone expect her to be a leader? Much less one who leads an army of kids in a Holy battle?
Will love and lust, jealousy, greed, deceit and distrust break the delicate tie that binds these teen warriors called The Vigorios? Can a troupe of teens help the Seraphym finally defeat the massive empire of evil dominated for eons by the demon-dragons of Dracwald?

Did you add this mask yourself?
chaoticsense ·
Ya, I try to experiment a lot, but the Holga 135BC is quit limiting in it's composition. This I did by putting some aluminum foil along the "walls" in the space between the film and the lens. My first intent of it was to see if it would change how the light would bounce inside the camera in some way; it didn't, instead it became a nice masking effect.

The Loyola Rhetoric Society is a student group that fosters the critical analysis and production of rhetoric, the art of persuasion, for intellectual, professional, and civic ends. Towards these ends, the Society has regular meetings and events, including talks, debates, and discussions, which promote rhetorical thinking, speaking, and writing. The Society believes that rhetoric touches every aspect of human culture--politics, advertising, science, literature, art, history, law--and therefore welcomes students of all majors who wish to explore the rhetorical features of their own and other disciplines.
All events are free and open to the public. Persons with disabilities who may require special services should contact Disability Support Services at 410.617.2062 at least 48 hours prior to the event.
The students will be leading a discussion about audience using this year's Super Bowl ads (including the ones about immigration and gender inequality) to stimulate conversation.
In this presentation, Kate Chaterdon will discuss her research, which combines contemplative practices (e.g., mindfulness meditation, visualization, deep listening, etc.) and the writing process. Come and learn about some simple contemplative practices that can help alleviate stress, and facilitate the writing process.
Kate Chaterdon is a new Visiting Affiliate Assistant Professor in the Writing Department at Loyola, and a recent graduate of the Rhetoric, Composition, and the Teaching of English Program at the University of Arizona. Kate's dissertation "'Thinking Things Together': What Contemplative Practice Can Offer Academic Writing Instruction," explores how to best implement contemplative practices in the writing class.
The Loyola Rhetoric Society will co-sponsor two events, with Messina, on October 27th. At 3pm in Sellinger VIP, Mike Memoli, Loyola alum and LA Times White House and presidential campaign correspondent, will discuss and answer questions about his career as a reporter and the field of journalism. At 5pm in McGuire Hall, a panel of professors and students will debate election related issues, from the economy to foreign affairs, followed by remarks from Mr. Memoli. All members of the Loyola community are invited to attend and participate in these two events.
Mike Memoli is a White House and 2016 presidential campaign correspondent at the Los Angeles Times, whose Washington, D.C., bureau he has been a part of since 2010. For 11 years he has covered national politics, and he has served as a journalist for Tribune, Real Clear Politics, and NBC. A New Jersey native and an avid sports fan, he graduated from Loyola University Maryland in 2004.

Could The Eagles Lead The League In Rush Yards Next Season?
Last season was a down season for Shady McCoy. On top of struggling he ended up getting injured and missed several games. Prior to last season McCoy was a back that was on the rise. Unfortunately for him he was saddled with a coach that would rather heŌĆÖd pass block and ignore the facts that his team would win if McCoy got 20 carries or more. ┬ĀIt wasnŌĆÖt all Reid though. McCoyŌĆÖs cutback run style proved to be relatively ineffective combined with the Eagles injury riddled offensive line. He tried to make too many jukes and cut behind the line of scrimmage. His line wasnŌĆÖt talented enough to hold its blocks. So when Bryce Brown cam in for McCoy his north/south running style fit better with the lines inadequacies. Brown become such a splash player that some people even now think heŌĆÖs made McCoy expendable, but Brown has his own issues. Due to his inexperience as a runner he lacks ball security skills. He is kind of a one handed rusher tending to keep the ball in his left hand and holding it away from his body even during contact. Until Brown learns how to hold a football he will be more of a liability than a help to the offense. It should be noted that McCoy himself also has a tendency to hold the ball away from his body far too often. Despite all this the Eagles boast a talented trio of backs between McCoy, Brown, and Jones. Felix Jones is a guy who when heŌĆÖs healthy can gouge defenses for big gains. HeŌĆÖs a back with solid hands and is excellent on screenplays. Both he and McCoy have are very solid pass catching running backs. The Eagles havenŌĆÖt had a trio of backs this solid since they had Duce, Buck, and Westbrook. Unlike that great trio, these three have a coach who is more than willing to let these guys run the ball. As Kelly stated heŌĆÖs ŌĆ£an equal opportunity scorerŌĆØ so I wouldnŌĆÖt be surprised to see games where McCoy gets it over 25 times, but the next week Brown running it for double digit carries and the same for Jones. I get the feeling Kelly will play the hot hand. For a team that has marginal talent (as far as we know to this point) at the quarterback position the Eagles are going to need to rely on the run game to protect the quarterback. Of course Kelly may want to only use his run game and short pass system, but heŌĆÖs going to have to occasionally challenge the defense as well. This could mean the reemergence of Desean Jackson as a viable deep threat. When safeties come up to assist against the run Jackson could end up getting that one on one coverage from the past he used to decimate an NFL secondary. As long as the line stays healthy (and out of trouble) this teams rushing attack could be the key to leading the Eagles back to respectability. The top 4 teams in rush attempts last season all made the playoffs. Seven of the top ten was a playoff team, and although the Bears didnŌĆÖt make the playoffs they won 10 games. ┬ĀConversely only the Atlanta Falcons made the playoffs in the bottom 10 of attempts per game. If Chip Kelly was smart and from what everyone seems to say I think he is, heŌĆÖs going to rely on his very talented backfield to protect both his quarterback and his defense.

We bought a house last winter and had the luck of moving in during the biggest snow storm of the season (go us!).
Despite bad timing for moving, we love our house. It's 100 years old, packed with memories and the location is amazing.
Our house is next to the biggest park in the city and a beautiful lake. Anytime the kids want to run and play and have fun, we go to the park. No need to have a big play set in our backyard when we have one right next door.
This park is also home to a weekly city wide festival with vendors, bands and kid friendly activities every Wednesday during the Summer.
So when my daughter mentioned she wanted to do a lemonade stand this summer, we knew just when to do it. Wednesday nights during festival hours, on our front steps!
We decided that we should offer fresh squeezed homemade lemonade and cupcakes.- and feature a new cupcake every week.
We agreed that all the money earned would go into a specific account for her future. One to be used for college or a mission for our church if she chose to serve one or towards her retirement or whatever we decide on when she turns 18.
My daughter and I worked together to make our lemonade. We then worked together to make the cupcakes, frosting and then to taste test them to make sure they met our strict palate. Both the lemonade and cupcakes passed with flying colors.
These Oreo cupcakes were our first weeks cupcake choice.
These Oreo cupcakes were a huge hit and we sold just over 18 cupcakes for $1 each! They were such a hit that we now, after 3 weeks of doing our lemonade stand have gotten a bit of a following with repeat customers who come back each week for our lemonade and cupcakes.
My kids LOVED these oreo cupcakes and so did our customers! The cupcakes are really quite simple to make, easy to fill and oh so yummy! If you have an Oreo lover in your house, then whip up a batch of these oreo cupcakes!

"When the time comes, it is important that monetary policy adjustments are gradual and do not disrupt financial stability and economic growth," he added.
And Sen. Robert MenendezRobert (Bob) MenendezLawmakers target horse meat trade Senators, staff get approval to testify in Menendez corruption trial Trump admin not opposed to new war authorization MORE (D-N.J.) was even more blunt, wondering if the Fed was considering removing an economic lifeline too soon.
"Isn't it still way too soon to consider any kind of policy tightening?" he asked, pointing to the continued high unemployment rate, coupled with consistently low inflation.
The Democratic push marked a flip of sorts, after Bernanke has heard for years from wary Republicans, who warned that the Fed's highly accommodative policy was too risky and should be averted.
Sen. Chuck SchumerCharles SchumerDemocrats urge Trump to condemn Charlottesville violence Melania Trump on Charlottesville protests: 'No good comes from violence' It's time for McConnell to fight with Trump instead of against him MORE (D-N.Y.) pressed Bernanke on whether the Fed would begin to "taper" its latest round of bond purchases known as quantitative easing in September, as many market participants expect.
Bernanke, who has emphasize that any stimulus exit would be heavily reliant on incoming economic data, said it was "way too early" to nail down a precise timeframe.
"What we're looking for is a pickup as the year progresses," he said.
Meanwhile, Republicans continued to air concerns about the repercussions of the Fed's policies. Through three rounds of easing, the Fed has accumulated over $3 trillion in its portfolio, and GOP lawmakers worry that the economy could suffer when it comes time to cut off that stimulus.
Bernanke also told lawmakers that federal fiscal policy is weighing on the economic recovery, criticizing as he has in the past the short-term sequester cuts and tax hikes that do not address the nation's long-term deficit issues. However, he stopped short of suggesting the Fed should bring more pressure to bear on Congress, or advocate for specific policies.
"I don't think we should be a in a position to try to threaten Congress with higher interest rates or anything like that," he said.
Like in the House a day prior, senators acknowledged that Bernanke's appearance before their panel may be his last, as his term as Fed chairman is set to end at the beginning of 2014 and the widespread expectation is that he will not be back for a third term.
Lawmakers in both parties, even those critical of his policy moves, offered kind words as the hearing at times served as a psuedo-send-off. In particular, lawmakers hailed Bernanke's role in steering the nation through the financial crisis.
Schumer said Bernanke was "instrumental in keeping our economy from falling into an abyss … we are now because of your leadership, on the path of turning that economy around."

Is there a RackSpace Backup Monitoring Plugin?
I host my master SpiceWorks MSP install on RackSpace and today I needed to make a change to the system and found out that my daily Monday 4:00 AM backup was not even started yet. Today is Tuesday and my tummy is grumbling for food so it's almost 1.5 days late so far.
When I spoke to tech support they did not seem concerned (yikes!) but rather wanted to impress me with the stats of how many customers they have (therefor by abstraction I no longer count...)
Now they did press a magic button and my backup is supposed to go through in the next 60 minutes - really it takes 60 minutes to queue up a 20GB disk to disk backup?
But what happens to my daily Tuesday 4:00 AM backup? And Wednesday and...?
I suspect more that a few people reading this will pop over and check their backups as well. Which gets me to the question - can we get SpiceWorks to keep track of this somewhat critical process?

Niagara Technology Group (NTG) is an IT service provider.
A plugin could be made to do this as there is an API from Rackspace. You are talking about the daily images of your cloud instance?
May 3, 2011 at 10:53 UTC
Technical Magic Corporation is an IT service provider.
Correct - there is the option to do BOTH a daily and a weekly snapshot that is included with each cloud server offering however you must explicitly turn these features on and for the daily you set the time and for the weekly you pick the day.

Last week Kraft was giving away a limited number of Samplicious Packs for $9.99. I found out about this because I am signed up through Kraft First Taste and they sent out an email and I jumped on it. In the pack I got: 1 full-sized jar of Kraft Peanut Butter Honey, 1 box of JELL-O No Bake Cheesecake Dessert and 1 Package of Crystal Light Drink Mix. This alone was worth the $10, but it also came with coupons for FREE items. I got a coupon for free Cracker Barrel Natural Cheese Slices, free Cracker Barrel Jalapeno Cheddar Cheese, free Kraft Swiss Shredded Cheese, free Kraft Crumbled Feta Cheese and a BOGO coupon for Cooking Creme. All together this pack is worth $42 and they gave it for only $10! I can't wait to see my next grocery bill with all these freebies on it!
You work too hard for your money to throw it all away on full price when you don't have to!
