Hate to give one and all a case of post-Thanksgiving indigestion but you have reason for stomach upset.
Computerworld: "Educators and IT industry executives are warning that a crisis is looming in the IT job market. Only this time, it's not that there are too many job hunters seeking too few positions. To the contrary, they say that the U.S. isn't producing IT experts in the quantity and quality that it needs to remain the leader of the global IT market."
Also, read the insightful op-ed column by Harvard's Joseph Nye in this morning's New York Times. Nye's point is that the U.S. is digging itself into a hole by not doing more to attract quality foreign students. "Two-thirds of the 25 universities with the most foreign students reported major enrollment declines." That's bad news in bells for the IT industry -- especially when you factor in the sharp decline in the number of American students receiving degrees in science and engineering.
I don't consider myself an alarmist but the writing on the wall is quite clear: If current trends continue, U.S. businesses will turn increasingly to outsourcing not just because they want to but because they'll have no alternative. Willie Sutton said he robbed banks because that's where the money was. U.S. companies will outsource overseas because that's where the technical talent lives.

Changing the width of the textbox did not impact the width of the parent element. How to fix it to remove empty space?Asked by cherrihsu on February 01, 2015 at 10:28 PM
Hi in the phone number session I though I'd like to make it more compact and align all the 3 fields into one line. I've shortened the width of two boxes. How shall I further reduce the "space" each box occupies?
If you add this CSS code all the 3 fields will be in the same row, equally spaced out.
#cid_6 .form-sub-label-container {
width: 85px;
#input_6_country {
width: 75px;
Do let us know if that is the layout that you wanted to achieve once you test it out.

Valentino goes heavy on military chic for menswear line
Valentino wowed with a line of military-inspired ensembles at its latest menswear presentation.
Fashionistas bid goodbye to Milan and headed to Paris on Wednesday (22Jun16) for the last instalment of shows for the season, with Valentino kicking off the glamorous event with its spring/summer 2017 menswear runway show.
Creative directors Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli showed a line which was heavy on military references, including the likes of army jackets, flying eagle motifs and a refined camouflage print. There were Army coats, zippered shirt jackets tucked into tapered trousers, all in green, deep blue or black, some peppered with silver studs. Prior to the show Chiuri and Piccioli said they were inspired by the concept of the human component of garment construction, after viewing the Metropolitan Museum of Art's exhibition Unfinished: Thoughts Left Visible. Spanning a catalogue of artists running from Rembrandt to Rauschenberg, it displayed works which had been left incomplete, or, in some cases, at least seemingly so.
"We were very impressed by this exhibition," Piccioli told Vogue.com. "The works in it allowed you to see the human process behind the conversation between the artist and the viewer."
Accordingly, the concept was reflected in the line through irregular splotches, rough embroideries, faded denim cowboy shirts and jackets with pockets ripped off to produce colour contrasts and oversized outerwear which had a deconstructed effect. And there was also brogue with exposed staples and undyed edges, but overall the collection had a minimalist vibe complete with classic Valentino polish. Chiuri also explained that the collection reflected idea that people are creatures of habit, particularly with regards to what they wear.
"Man is very close to the idea of uniform," she said. "Modern uniform in which you represent yourself. Your personal idea. But we really believe that our man is also modern, also clever, also something not regular."
Showing at the event on Thursday (23Jun16) are the likes of Louis Vuitton and Rick Owens.

Egypt beat Mexico in Volleyball Men's U23 World Championship
Egypt beat Mexico 4-1 to claim their second win in the 2017...
Al Ahly manager Fathi Mabrouk has announced his 20-man squad to face Tala'a El-Gaish on Sunday in the 29th round of the Egyptian Premier League.
This is the second match for Mabrouk after he was announced as Garrido's successor. Mabrouk won his debut 3-0 against Al-Nasr on the 7th of May to remain 11 points away from Zamalek, the league leaders.
The team's midfielder Hendrik Helmke was included in the squad for the first time since he joined the Red Devils in January. He was called up to replace Hossam Ashour, who is out due to suspension. Defender Mohamed Naguib also returned to the squad after he recovered from injury.
Full Squad:
Goalkeepers: Sherif Ekramy, Ahmed Adel, Mossad Awad.
Defenders: Sherif Hazem, Bassem Ali, Saad Samir, Sabry Rahil, Sherif Abdel-Fadil, Mohamed Hamdy, Mohamed Naguib
Midfielders: Hossam Ghaly, Abdallah El-Said, Mohamed Rizk, Ramadan Sobhy, Mahmoud Hassan 'Trezeguet', Momen Zakaria, Hendrik Helmke.
Forwards: Emad Meteb, Ahmed Abdel-Zaher, Mohamed Nagy 'Gedo'.
Al Ahly currently sit in the third place with 49 points. They are expected to fight to win the game waiting for Zamalek to lose points in their next matches in hopes of decreasing the 11-point gap. Tala'a El-Gaish stand in the 10th place with 36 points.

Thing you should see on TV, but don't
Through my travels in cyberspace I came across this website and thought I would share. Interesting reading when your just surfin around.
Rationality Rebooted: Stories of responsible gun use that do not fit the mainstream media's agenda
Good post. The reason this doesn't get on TV is that the good guys won. The msm only reports stuff where the good guy gets hurt, or if they can make it look like some poor minority person is unfairly treated.
Good stuff. This is the kind of info to use when someone says gun owners never stop a crime.
I agree that's why I am also very happy to see the A&E channel put PANIC 911 on Thursday nights at 10:00pm. Last night a single mother went to work in the morning leaving her 12 year old daughter home alone to get ready for school. The mother had purchased a semi-auto and taught the daughter how to use it. A BG broke into the house that morning after the mother just left so the 12 year old grabbed the gun and hid in her closet, soon as the BG grabbed for the closet door she shot one through the door hitting the BG in the shoulder which made him flea out side to where the police was pulling up. Was very intense. The wife won't watch it anymore, isn't it something how the police are always just a little late, not knocking them at all they can't be everywhere. Just shows that a home defense weapon is very important in to days world. Be safe.
"The police are always a little late" is the product of a free society. We do not want the "thought police" intervening because someone is "thinking" about committing a crime. That is the stuff of Stalinist Russia.
I saw a news story today about two girls who hid in a closet while the burglars ransacked the house. Luckily the police got there in time and caught the two "teen" burglars. Could have been 19 year old MEN, but were portrayed by the media as "teens".
They made a big deal about how these girls were "saved" by hiding. If you think hiding from criminals is going to save you, you are going to be dissapointed more often than not.
To be fair to the police they cannot possibly be everywhere all the time. So at some point you have to take responsibility for your own safety.
The NRA publishes "The Armed Citizen" every month and has for as long as I can remember. It is a monthly report of Citizens protecting themselves and others. :)
and unfortunately, they don't have crystal balls to fortell the future actions of criminals, we do need to take some responsibility for our own safety and that of our loved ones. and in all fairness, look at what they are tasked with in a shift. vehicle accidents, medical emergencies, robberies and thefts, shoplifting, disturbance calls, drunks, ect., ect.,,,,, they just are not capable of being everywhere all the time. even if they had twice or triple the number LEO's it would still be impossible.
Axxe, you hit the nail on the head, taking responsibility for our own safety and the safety of our loved ones. Growing up I was taught this is part of being a man. Times have changed and now I believe this is also part of being a woman. Responsibility seems to have been lost on my generation(born in the 80's).

Francona hired as Cleveland manager
Associated Press
CLEVELAND — Terry Francona is getting back with one of his baseball families.
Francona, who guided the Boston Red Sox to two World Series titles, has been hired as manager of the Cleveland Indians, a team that collapsed in the second half this season after a promising first four months. The sides continued working Saturday night on the length of Francona's contract.
The 53-year-old will be formally introduced as Cleveland's 42nd manager during a Monday news conference at Progressive Field.
"I'm really excited," Francona said on the air as an ESPN analyst, his job for the past season. "People who don't know me may have thought I was looking for something different."
The Indians chose Francona over Sandy Alomar Jr., who served as the club's interim manager for the final six games after Manny Acta was fired on Sept. 27. Francona and Alomar, who spent the past three seasons as a coach in Cleveland, were the only candidates to interview for the Indians' opening.
Alomar has been offered a spot on Francona's staff, most likely as bench coach.
The Indians have always held a special place for Francona. After he was fired as Philadelphia's manager, he worked in Cleveland's front office as an adviser in 2001. He also spent a portion of the 1988 season on Cleveland's major league roster and his father, Tito, played with the Indians from 1959-64.
Francona has stayed close with Indians president Mark Shapiro and general manager Chris Antonetti over the past decade. He said the chance to work with them again is what intrigued him most about the Cleveland job, which will have its challenges because of a much smaller payroll than he enjoyed in Boston.
"It's a good story, almost a family feeling," Francona said after his interview on Friday. "I don't think you can take a job because of that, but it still means a lot to me. Because of Chris and Mark and my relationship, I am excited to try to tackle, or attempt to tackle, every challenge that comes our way and do it together."
There are some major challenges in Cleveland, where fans have been waiting for a World Series winner since 1948.
The Indians were a major disappointment this season, going 68-94. They were within 3 1-2 games of first place on July 27, but went 5-24 in August — the worst month in the franchise's 112-year history — and finished 20 games out in the AL Central. Acta didn't get to finish his third season with the club.
"We have better talent than our record shows," Antonetti said earlier this week.
With shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera, second baseman Jason Kipnis, center fielder Michael Brantley and catcher Carlos Santana, the Indians have a solid core of young position players to build around. Cleveland's bullpen was the strength of the team this season, but All-Star closer Chris Perez caused distractions with his comments and actions.
The Indians lacked a proven power hitter — DH Travis Hafner was injured much of the season — and it remains to be seen if Cleveland owner Paul Dolan will spend in free agency to add talent.
Francona interviewed with the Indians one day after Alomar, a six-time All-Star catcher for Cleveland and fan favorite. Alomar managed the Indians to a 3-3 record after Acta was dismissed. Alomar will likely be courted by other teams seeking a manager. He interviewed with Boston last year before the Red Sox hired Bobby Valentine.
Francona spent eight seasons with the Red Sox but was not brought back after the club fell apart down the stretch in 2011. This season, Francona worked as a TV broadcaster and said it was while preparing for telecasts that he realized how much he missed managing and being around players.
"We appreciate Terry's great contributions to our baseball coverage and we wish him the best,"? ESPN said in a statement, adding Francona will appear as a guest analyst during the network's World Series coverage.
Francona has managed for 12 seasons in the majors, compiling a 1,029-915 record.
"I played for Tito (Francona) and everybody knows his track record is a good one," said Indians pitcher Justin Masterson, who was with Francona in Boston for 2008-9.
Antonetti said part of Francona's appeal was how he developed young players like Dustin Pedroia, Kevin Youkilis, Clay Buchholz and Jon Lester as they came up through Boston's system.
"In addition to that, he's a great communicator and an accomplished leader," Antonetti said.

Conciliation des contraires, 2013
Jean-François Cooke and Pierre Sasseville have worked jointly under the name Cooke-Sasseville since the beginning of 2000. Over time, they have taken part in a large number of solo and collective expositions both on the national and international scene. Of a sculptural and installative nature, the colourful imaginative works of Cooke-Sasseville, are paradoxically forms of both seduction and repulsion deploying with force through space.
Mémoire vive, 1996 | RÉSONANCE INFINIE ALLEGRETTO – 2007
Lucienne Cornet has an MFA from l'Université Laval in Québec City. She has won many public work of art commissions in Québec. She is recognized by her peers and the art world as a multi-talented artist versatile in several complementary disciplines: sculpture, drawing, painting and prints. Lucienne Cornet was awarded le Prix Videre 2010-2011 by la Manifestation international d'art de Québec and, in 2000, the insignia of "Chevalier" of the "Ordre des arts et des lettres" in France.
L'oie Blanche, 2011
Born in 1932, Jacques Dansereau was both a doctor and successful sculptor. His materials of choice were metal, wood and rope. His artistic approach reflects the trend where nothing is named but rather suggested or proposed to the onlooker.
Main de Maître, 2008
Claude Le Sauteur studied at L'École des beaux-arts de Québec with Jean-Paul Lemieux, Jean Dallaire and Omer Parent. Deeply-rooted in Charlevoix, he painted man's reconciliation with nature through the use of oil on canvas, oil pastel, charcoal on paper and engraving. Although, he passed away in 2007, he remains one of Québec's pivotal artists. The work Main de maitre, designed by Claude Le Sauteur, was executed by the stone and metal sculptor, Jean-Michel Simard. His sculptures are made from stone, bronze and copper and emerge from his innermost inspirations and from the raw materials found in the Charlevoix countryside
La lune ou le tambour, 1996
Suzanne Martel received an MFA from l'Université du Québec in Montréal (1981). She produces artwork that focuses in particular on the notions of friction and tension produced by colours and textures. Her grouped sculptures invariably allude to elements found in landscapes: forms that recall vegetation or the animal world to which, at times, are joined anthropomorphic forms with uneven surfaces.
Exultate, 1986
Lewis Pagé studied at L'École technique de Québec (1948 – 1952) and at l'École des beaux-arts du Québec (1957-1961). He established the first art foundry in Québec City, St. Jean-Baptiste borough. Besides the public works that one finds everywhere in the Province of Québec, he has created many smaller bronze sculptures that are part of private collections.
Survivant, 1991 | Lune Bleue, 1991
Charlevoix is home to Gérard Thériault, he graduated from l'École des Beaux-Arts in Montreal. His materials of choice are wood, stone and steel. One can see his works in various sites in Charlevoix and in Québec as well as in the United States and France. His major works are Œillée sur le large, Fascination, Acrobate and Big Bang. The works seen at le Domaine Forget evoke amerindianity.

Did Arsene Wenger really go into an eye-popping, angry meltdown at his press conference this week?
I read many interpretations of his pre-Champions League press conference this week in which he was asked to address many of the weaknesses of the current Arsenal side, including his own strange team selections.
But then I watched the video of his spiky performance and what I saw was a slightly narked manager, denying a story he claimed is false, and doing it with belligerence.
Wenger wasn't particularly witty in his put downs and lacked his usual cool, thoughtful style. But it this was no lunatic losing the plot. He has every right to drop his usual cooperative, generous ways and put down a marker if he believes an agenda is emerging against him, or stirring up trouble.
If you want meltdowns, and to see a managerial mind on the edge, look again at Joe Kinnear's eruption five years ago, or Kevin Keegan during his "I'd love it if we beat them," rant.
What Wenger did was no different to what many a manager does up and down the country every week, and ten times more tame than the feisty Sir Alex Ferguson chunters on a regular basis in front of the press at Old Trafford.
But Wenger's touchy demeanour did highlight the looming question at Arsenal. Is he the man to rebuild his side into contenders? Is he the man to spend the war-chest - some say £70 million - available at the Emirates?
Or will he himself decide that the Premier League has moved on, that the Manchester clubs, and Chelsea, are now on a different level, and it is time to get out?
Arsenal's largest and second largest shareholders, Stan Kroenke and Alisher Usmanov watched the thrashing by Bayern Munich on Tuesday night, and must realise drastic action is needed. New manager, new spending policy? Same manager, new spending policy?
What is baffling was Wenger's team selection for the Blackburn FA Cup match which ended in defeat. Not starting with the three top creative players, Walcott, Carzola and Wilshere was ludicrous and he deserves all the flack he gets for that.
The pressure is on from the terraces now, and it should be from the boardroom too, although how do you sack a man who has built a club on such wonderful foundations and with such style? That is Arsenal's terrible dilemma.
Arsenal vs Aston Villa has to be a home win or Wenger will be in further trouble.
Prediction: 2-1
Manchester City vs Chelsea (Sunday, 1:30pm)
There is always a clamour to declare the title race finished as long before May as possible. Bookies attempt to grab publicity by paying out on results that look likely, but are far from finalised.
But an away win in the Manchester City v Chelsea fixture on Sunday could leave Roberto Mancini's men 15 points off the pace if Manchester United beat QPR on Saturday.
If that kind of gap opens up how about United becoming Champions by Easter Monday.... when City visit Old Trafford!
That's quite an incentive for United to keep crushing the life out of faltering City with a relentless run of wins.
Mancini needs a victory this weekend. He dismisses talk of the sack, and claims he is the best manager in England. But you have to ask if his skills have progressed City from last year.
Do his players still have the same hunger? Has success taken away their killer instinct? Forget Mancini's moan that he didn't get the players he wanted last summer, has he improved what he's got?
The answer is no to all those questions.
Prediction 2-2
QPR vs Manchester United (Saturday, 3pm)
Sir Alex Ferguson will be delighted with the run of games ahead at such a key period of the season. QPR, out-of-form Norwich, relegation-threatened Reading and distinctly average Sunderland.
If United keep their freshness and wits, they will continue to pile the pressure on at the top and reclaim their crown. Even with the distraction of Champions' League and a tough FA Cup quarter final ahead probably against Chelsea, United look to have the resources to get it sewn up quickly.
QPR will look at this as a bonus fixture. If they get anything then great. But more important to start an upturn against Southampton, Sunderland and Aston Villa in the following trio of fixtures that will determine whether Harry Redknapp's survival bid has legs. Which it hasn't.
Prediction: 0-2
Reading vs Wigan (Saturday, 3pm)
You can't beat a pivotal relegation clash laced with desperation, peril and anxiety. There is something morbidly fascinating at seeing how two clubs threatened with the drop react in their own high pressure battles.
Reading v Wigan falls into this category. Wigan, second bottom and three points from safety. Reading third bottom, two points ahead of Wigan, but one point from safety.
Reading have lost two in a row, but have had a zest about them since Christmas to suggest they'll hang in there fighting until the end. Wigan have been steady including a good FA Cup win last week and two draws in their last three top flight games.
Prediction: 2-2
West Brom v Sunderland (Saturday, 3pm)
Former Sunderland player Don Hutchison had some interesting thoughts on Wearside skipper Lee Cattermole this week. "I just don't see a player in him," was his withering assessment. Hutch says Cattermole is too old school and chases around looking to nail opponents instead of reading the game, screening the back four and feeding creative players.
That criticism gets to the heart of Sunderland's evolution. Can Martin O'Neill develop the team from being revved up scurriers, with a bit of threat on the counter attack, but generally poor at keeping possession?
And one questions vexing the fans is: when will O'Neill partner Steven Fletcher with new signing Danny Graham and sacrifice a midfielder?
West Brom's demolition of Liverpool at Anfield suggests they are back on form.
Prediction: 1-1
Fulham v Stoke (Saturday, 12:45)
Amazing how Stoke just trundle along, amassing points, having good days and bad, but generally being one of the most solid clubs in the league.
Tony Pulis may not be everyone's favourite, and the same goes for Stoke's style, but it works. They've got 33 points so far, and are heading for a top half finish. That should represent another major achievement for Pulis and his methods, but he'll get little praise.
Prediction: 1-1
Norwich v Everton (Saturday, 3pm)
Chris Hughton's men have only won once - against Peterborough in the FA Cup - since mid December. While they are hovering comfortably ahead of the relegation scrap, that has to be rectified quickly to avoid discomfort.
To make matters worse they have only scored twice in their last six league games. Can that sort of strike force break down Everton's solidity?
Prediction: 0-1
Newcastle v Southampton (Sunday, 1:30pm)
Alan Pardew has the statistics to prove Newcastle's energy levels dip in Sunday games played after Europa League matches on a Thursday night.
He put out his strongest available line up in Kharkiv, and has Davide Santon, Mathieu Debuchy and Yoan Gouffran to add to the mix at the weekend, with all three likely to start.
That should mean plenty of life down the flanks and Newcastle in decent shape despite attacking both games. A win would calm nerves greatly at St James' Park.
Prediction: 2-0
West Ham v Tottenham (Monday, 8pm)
There seems to be plenty of speculation gathering about Sam Allardyce's future at West Ham. Does getting the Hammers promoted, and stabilising them in the top flight, mean it is job done for Big Sam and time to move on?
That is certainly one situation to watch in the coming weeks. Allardyce will have no shortage of suitors if he goes, and West Ham will have no shortage of options if they seek a new man who plays more expansive football.
A word about Andre Villas-Boas. He attended a charity concert in Newcastle this week in memory of his former mentor the late Sir Bobby Robson. All those attended were blown away by how humble and classy the Spurs boss was all night. He had time for everyone and acknowledged his debt to Robson.
Well done AVB.
Prediction: 0-2

"Pilgrim Ophalmology - you were brilliant!"
About: Pilgrim Hospital / Ophthalmology Pilgrim Hospital Ophthalmology PE21 9QS
Posted by rob86 (as ),
Appointment was early morning with Mr Gupta at Pilgrim Hospital for right eye op (had left one done 8 yrs ago by the same wonderful surgeon). 9 of us were due for same that morning. All staff were absolutely brilliant, and we had all had our ops by mid morning and were made to feel both welcome and at ease. Amazing service from an obviously dedicated and motivated team. If there were one slight hiccup, it was the length of time it took for our medication (eye drops) to come from pharmacy, this took longer than all the medical procedures (over 2hrs in my case) and many were still waiting when I left. But, as I said, it was overall an amazingly efficient and. in the circumstances, pleasing experience, the ambiance produced by all of the staff, left 9 plus strangers a united cheerful group. My congratulations Pilgrim Ophalmology and thank you to all the highly dedicated staff, you were brilliant!

Dear Rob86,
Many thanks for taking the time and effort to provide us feedback about our service. It is nice to know that you were pleased with the high quality of care and patient experience we provide in the Ophthalmology service at Pilgrim.
We try and do our best to ensure that patients get a good experience in the hospital as having a hospital visit is a stressful time both for the patient and the family.
We are sorry about the delay it took to get the post operative medication for you. We will look into our processes to see how we can reduce this delay for patients to help improve their experience.

Stage Fright (Alfred Hitchcock, 1950)
poison at the box office" by a disgruntled exhibitor in 1938, a label that helped push many of her contemporaries -- Greta Garbo, Norma Shearer, Luise Rainer -- into early retirement. Dietrich was made of sterner stuff, and after a celebrated turn entertaining American troops during World War II, she carved out a second film career by taking on character roles in films by major directors like Billy Wilder in A Foreign Affair (1948) and Witness for the Prosecution (1957), Fritz Lang in Rancho Notorious (1952), Orson Welles in Touch of Evil (1958), and Alfred Hitchcock in Stage Fright. Of these, the Hitchcock film is surprisingly the least memorable. It may be that Dietrich, who had learned everything she could about lighting and camera angles from Sternberg and cinematographers like Lee Garmes, was too much the diva for Hitchcock, who liked to be in control on his sets. But the fact remains that she is probably the most interesting thing about Stage Fright, a somewhat overcomplicated and sometimes scattered mystery in which we pretty much know whodunit from the beginning. Her appearances often come as a welcome relief from the rather tepid romantic triangle involving the characters played by Jane Wyman, Richard Todd, and Michael Wilding. Dietrich sings -- if that's the right word for what she does, being more diseuse than singer -- a few songs, including "La Vie en Rose" and Cole Porter's "The Laziest Gal in Town," and wears some Christian Dior gowns as Charlotte Inwood, the star of a musical revue in London, who bumps off her husband with the help of her lover, Jonathan Cooper (Todd), who is also the lover of a young student at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, Eve Gill (Wyman). But Eve also gets caught up in the murder plot when she falls for the detective investigating the case, Wilfred Smith (Wilding). Also providing relief from the romantic plot are Alastair Sim and Sybil Thorndike as Eve's separated and slightly eccentric parents, and some funny cameos by Miles Malleson and Joyce Grenfell. The screenplay is by Whitfield Cook from an adaptation by Alma Reville of a novel by Selwyn Jepson. There are some clever Hitchcockian moments, including a flashback that turns out to be a complete misdirection and some skillful tracking shots by cinematographer Wilkie Cooper. But Wyman, the only American-born member of the cast, feels out of her element, and Wilding turns his character into a moonstruck milksop. (Whatever did Elizabeth Taylor see in him?)

In a move that raises a fresh round of questions about the future leadership of the AT&T Corporation, the company yesterday promoted its top lawyer, John D. Zeglis, to vice chairman.
Mr. Zeglis, who is 50, will remain AT&T's general counsel and will retain responsibility for the company's corporate strategy, business development, external affairs, and human resources. His wide-ranging portfolio underscores that Mr. Zeglis has emerged as one of AT&T's most powerful executives and perhaps the closest adviser to AT&T's chairman, Robert E. Allen.
The elevation of Mr. Zeglis comes at a time of feverish speculation about the strategy AT&T, the dominant long-distance service provider, will pursue in a deregulated telephone market. But it may be most intriguing for what it says about the prospects of John R. Walter, AT&T's president and chief operating officer, whom Mr. Allen anointed as his successor in November after an extensive search.
Mr. Walter has been dogged by rumors that he may not get Mr. Allen's job since reports appeared last month that AT&T was discussing a $50 billion merger with SBC Communications. Executives familiar with the talks said they expected SBC's chairman, Edward E. Whitacre, to emerge as the chief executive of the combined company, if a deal was reached.
AT&T took pains yesterday to signal that Mr. Walter was not being sidelined. In a statement about the promotion, Mr. Allen pointedly mentioned his No. 2, saying, ''John Walter and I both highly value John's counsel.'' And a person close to the company noted that as president and chief operating officer, Mr. Walter would still outrank Mr. Zeglis.Continue reading the main story
Still, the promotion is the second time in recent months that Mr. Allen has thrown a spotlight on Mr. Zeglis. In a reorganization in March, Mr. Allen shifted responsibility for corporate strategy and business development from Mr. Walter to Mr. Zeglis.
''I don't think AT&T is trying to send a message that John Walter is not going to be C.E.O. of the company,'' said one former senior AT&T executive, who spoke on condition of anonymity. ''But they are trying to send a message that it is not a fait accompli.''
Mr. Zeglis has been a central participant in the negotiations with SBC, according to people involved in the talks. And if AT&T was to announce a deal, he would steward the company's campaign to navigate the merger past regulators and Government antitrust lawyers.
By contrast, executives with knowledge of AT&T said, Mr. Walter has taken a lower profile in the talks and recently spent two weeks in Europe, dividing his time between a vacation and AT&T meetings. If Mr. Walter was to be denied Mr. Allen's job because of a merger with SBC, his contract would entitle him to a severance payment worth roughly $20 million in cash and stock.
Mr. Walter and Mr. Zeglis are similar in that neither of them were trained as telephone executives. Mr. Walter came to AT&T from the commercial printer R. R. Donnelley & Sons, where he was the chief executive. Mr. Zeglis, who joined AT&T in 1984, had been a partner at Sidley & Austin, a Chicago law firm that has handled AT&T's legal business.
Given the mounting criticism of a potential merger between AT&T and SBC, Mr. Zeglis could face an uphill battle winning approval for a deal. In a highly unusual move, the chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, Reed E. Hundt, sharply criticized a merger of AT&T and a regional Bell company in a speech yesterday in Washington.
In a tart response to Mr. Hundt's speech, AT&T said the F.C.C. should judge a merger ''when and if it is made.'' Mr. Allen declared in a recent speech in Boston that a hypothetical merger between AT&T and a regional Bell company could accelerate competition in the $100 billion local phone market.
People who are involved in the negotiations were divided yesterday about how Mr. Hundt's broadside would affect a possible deal.
One executive, who declined to be identified, said Mr. Hundt's remarks would blow over. ''The last time I checked, he was not going to be in charge of the F.C.C. by the time this deal gets done,'' this executive said. Mr. Hundt said last month that he would leave the F.C.C. as soon as President Clinton named a successor -- which should take no more than six months.
But another person with knowledge of AT&T said the company did not expect Mr. Hundt to come out so stridently against a merger. ''This has got to make both AT&T and SBC rethink their strategies,'' he said.Continue reading the main story

First Trailer for Christine Chubbuck Documentary 'Kate Plays Christine'
by Alex Billington
July 19, 2016
Source: Vulture
Grasshopper Film has debuted a trailer for the documentary Kate Plays Christine, directed by Robert Greene, examining the life and infamous death of Christine Chubbuck. Chubbuck was a young news anchor in Florida,who shot herself in the head on live TV during a news broadcast in 1974. Her story was dramatized and turned into a feature film at Sundance this year called Christine, starring Rebecca Hall. In addition, this documentary also played at Sundance and it has been referred to as a meta-film as it blends some fiction and non-fiction elements and profiles actress Kate Lyn Sheil preparing to play the role of Christine Chubbuck in a film that was never finished. It received rave reviews and arrives in theaters soon.
Here's the official trailer for Robert Greene's documentary Kate Plays Christine, originally from Vulture:
Actress Kate Lyn Sheil prepares to portray the role of Christine Chubbuck, a real-life news reporter who killed herself on national television in 1974. From Vulture: "Her story caught the attention of documentary filmmaker Robert Greene and he set out to make a curious film that mixes elements of fiction and nonfiction in an effort to explore Chubbuck's life, death, and afterlife." Kate Plays Christine is directed by American documentary filmmaker Robert Greene, of the docs Actress, Kati with an I, and Owning the Weather previously. This first premiered at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year, with rave reviews like this one by Nikola Grozdanovic on Indiewire. Grasshopper Film will release the documentary in select US theaters starting August 24th later this summer, for those interested in checking this out. Your thoughts?

VETERANS DAY -- (House of Representatives - November 10, 2005)
(Mr. PITTS asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. PITTS. Mr. Speaker, tomorrow is Veterans Day. On this holiday, it is certainly appropriate that we recognize the sacrifice of our brave veterans that have fought to protect our freedom in years past.
But Veterans Day also provides a good opportunity to note the progress our military is making today. Today, we are at war. Our troops are fighting in the cause of freedom. Just 3 years ago, Saddam Hussein wielded a brutal totalitarian regime over an oppressed people. Today, Saddam is in jail and Iraqis have adopted a constitution upholding the rule of law.
Our effort to train and deploy new Iraqi security forces is also progressing. As of October, over 206,000 Iraqi forces have been trained and equipped. Similar progress has been seen in Afghanistan. Each day we continue the rebuilding of these war-torn countries. As a veteran, I am proud to say our military is not about occupation; it is about freedom, our freedom and freedom around the world.
Mr. Speaker, as we take time tomorrow to remember our living veterans, let us also recognize the noteworthy accomplishments of our troops serving today and not forget the words on the Mall--``Freedom Is Not Free.''

Please email us at email@example.com and include your order number and a list of the item(s) you are returning in the body of the message. We'll then reply to you with your RMA#, which must be included in the address field of your package. This RMA# is very important to ensure proper tracking and handling of returned goods.

9. How will my items be packed?
In an effort to to be as ecologically responsible as possible, Team DFC sometimes reuses boxes in good condition for internal and external packing of orders. We believe the small aesthetic loss in this is far outweighed by the benefits of recycling. It also helps to reduce packing costs for orders, the benefits of which we return to you in lower shipping costs! DFC accepts full responsibility for safe packing and shipping, and provides full replacement (as well as covering additional shipping costs) for any orders that are received damaged or destroyed. Most DFC orders are double-boxed for additional safetly during shipping. Whenever possible, Team DFC will box all of your separate DFC order items together for ease of shipping and handling.
10. What do I do if my order arrives damaged?
Team DFC takes the utmost care in handling, packing, and shipping our designs to you, but sometimes shippers and other carriers don't. If you receive an order with damage of any kind, or suspect your order has arrived damaged prior to un-packing, we ask you to document and email us at email@example.com jpg images of both damage to the item(s) as well as jpgs of both internal and external state of packaging for insurance claims purposes. We cannot guarantee replacement of any damaged or broken order without this. Team DFC prides itself on safe receipt of orders and thorough packing, and we will do all we can to replace your order as fast as possible should damage or breakage occur!
To return any design for repair, you also need a Return Repair Authorization number (RRA#.) Please email us at info@totaldfc. com, including your original order number if you still have it, and a list of the item(s) you are returning in the body of the message, with a jpg image of the design in question for our reference and a brief description of the issues of concern in regard to repair. We'll then reply to you with your RRA#, which must be included in the address field of your return package. This RRA# is very important to ensure proper tracking and handling of returned goods. Do not return any product(s) until you have received an RRA# from us! The email to you with your RRA# will also include packing information that will help maintain the safety of your shipment during return transit to us. Please ship with full insurance by your preferred shipper to:
DFC Studio
RRA# xxx
Chiapas 40A
Col. Roma, Mexico D.F 06760
Upon receipt of the shipment, Team DFC will contact you by email to confirm the cost of repairs and return shipping. Please reference your RRA# when calling or emailing to check on the status of your chaquira repair.
11. Do you ship internationally?
Yes, we do! If you are not in the U.S. and eligible for free shipping, you will be promted to select a destination field that will provide you with an accurate shipping cost to your global destination. DFC can ship to any postal address on the planet (this does not include P.O. Boxes, which we cannot ship to.) Most DFC customers order from outside of Mexico, hence most orders are international. Because of this, shipping times are sometimes longer than for items you order from other websites within your own country, and shipping rates also tend to be higher than for domestic orders simply as a result of larger distances and more complicated customs handling between countries. DFC is NAFTA certified, so between Mexico and the U.S. customs duties and taxes are minimized.
12. How long will my order take to ship?
Please allow around one week for FedEx Air shipments. If you need something shipped faster than our normal options, please email us at firstname.lastname@example.com or call our Mexico City studio within business hours (9am thru 6pm) Monday thru Friday on (52) 55 5286-0904.

Rainer Werner Fassbinder's revisionist gangster film is a tip of the fedora to Hollywood noir films that's somewhat reminiscent of Eddie Constantine's French crime dramas. Newly released from prison, armed robber Franz Walsch (Harry Baer) has difficulty readjusting to life in Munich, where everyone is a potential mark. Although he's reunited with his ex-girlfriend, the long-suffering Joanna Reiher (Hanna Schygulla), he's too restless to make a commitment to her. Joanna, who supported Franz for years, retaliates by breaking up his relationship with Magdalena Fuller (Ingrid Caven), but he simply takes up with a younger woman, Margarethe (Margarethe von Trotta). The local police commissioner, meanwhile, is keeping an eye on Franz in hopes that the ex-convict will lead authorities to his former crony, Gunther the Gorilla (Gunther Kaufman). Although the Gorilla allegedly murdered Franz's brother, Franz reconnects with him and the reunited felons then touch base with their semi-retired associate, Jo (Micha Cochina). In this shadowy world of snitches and constant surveillance, a pornographer named Carla (Carla Aulaulu) sells Joanna tidbits about Franz's activities; she learns through the grapevine that Franz is planning to knock off a supermarket. She naturally informs the vengeful Joanna, who decides to use the information to make sure Franz gets what's coming to him. Franz and the Gorilla gain the confidence of a law-abiding old friend named Martin (Hannes Gromball), who owns a grocery store, while Joanna sleeps with a police detective who's been kepping tabs on Franz. All hell breaks loose when he interrupts Franz's heist, and several people die. The wounded Gorilla subsequently seeks retribution against Carla. Will Joanna, the woman scorned, have the last laugh? Far more polished than Fassbinder's earlier underworld melodrama, LOVE IS COLDER THAN DEATH (1969), this wallow in fatalism is a minor but memorable crime flick. Although Fassbinder was attracted to the conventions of the American crime film, he found his true calling re-interpreting another American genre the Women's Melodrama of the 1950s.

Nissan car, truck, or SUV owners have come to expect a certain level of fuel efficiency when driving their Maxima around town. Make no mistake, you bought your Maxima because you wanted to buy a variety of features and options and youthfulness both impeccably combined into one vehicle. While it may not be difficult to find replacement parts for Nissan vehicles, these days the necessity for nothing but the absolute best are required to maintain your car or truck.
The first applications of the use of hydraulic pressure were in mining and supplying water across great distances. But it wasn't until a few decades after the first cars were produced that the drum brake wheel cylinders, like the ones found on your Nissan Maxima, were invented. Nissan Maxima drum brake wheel cylinders are essentially slave cylinders that force the brake shoes apart when the master cylinder transfers hydraulic pressure to each wheel. Your car or truck comes to a stop when energy is absorbed by the shoes as they are pressed up against the drums.

Ordering new Nissan parts from www.carpartsdiscount.com means you are taking advantage of the most superior original and aftermarket replacement Maxima parts on the internet.

There have been studies suggesting so, but no certainty has been met.
If it it holds truth, the female hormone (estrogen) would be drastically in play.

STOCKS TO BUY: TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified a handful of stocks that can potentially TRIPLE in the next 12 months. Learn more. TheStreetRatings.com Analysis: TheStreet Quant Ratings rates Biogen Idec as a buy. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its robust revenue growth, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, notable return on equity, reasonable valuation levels and solid stock price performance. Although the company may harbor some minor weaknesses, we feel they are unlikely to have a significant impact on results. Highlights from the ratings report include:
- The revenue growth came in higher than the industry average of 11.1%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues rose by 38.6%. Growth in the company's revenue appears to have helped boost the earnings per share.
- BIIB's debt-to-equity ratio is very low at 0.07 and is currently below that of the industry average, implying that there has been very successful management of debt levels. Along with the favorable debt-to-equity ratio, the company maintains an adequate quick ratio of 1.16, which illustrates the ability to avoid short-term cash problems.
- The return on equity has improved slightly when compared to the same quarter one year prior. This can be construed as a modest strength in the organization. Compared to other companies in the Biotechnology industry and the overall market, BIOGEN IDEC INC's return on equity exceeds that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.
- Powered by its strong earnings growth of 56.09% and other important driving factors, this stock has surged by 105.23% over the past year, outperforming the rise in the S&P 500 Index during the same period. Regarding the stock's future course, although almost any stock can fall in a broad market decline, BIIB should continue to move higher despite the fact that it has already enjoyed a very nice gain in the past year.

"ante natal care at St Marys Manchester"
About: St Mary's Hospital / Maternity care St Mary's Hospital Maternity care M13 0JH
Posted by Katherineb (as ),
Having read some stories from people who've had poor experience of ante natal care from the NHS, I wanted to give an endorsement to the care I've received from the staff at St Marys maternity hospital in Manchester.
I had a result of increased risk for downs syndrome from blood tests that were taken around 16 weeks which was really stressful. I cannot speak highly enough about the midwife who looked after me, telling me the news, getting me booked in for an amniocentesis, supporting me at the amnio appointment and then following up with the results.
I know that the hospital trust has to make savings, and that many of the staff were on strike earlier this week in their lunchbreak about possible staff cuts. I just wanted to say that the work they do is highly professional, sensitively carried out and hugely valued by myself and my partner.
If anyone in Manchester is looking at options for maternity care I would definitely recommend St Marys.

Skip to comments.Researcher believed killed by lab bacteria (Mega Bug Alert)
Posted on 05/11/2012 11:54:34 AM PDT by mojito
A young research associate killed by a highly virulent strain of meningococcal disease is believed to have contracted the bacteria from the San Francisco lab where he was working on a vaccine against it, public health officials said on Thursday.
U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention experts are seeking to confirm what they already suspect: that Richard Din, 25, died Saturday in an unusual case of a scientist being fatally infected with an agent from his own laboratory.
(Excerpt) Read more at reuters.com ...
Sounds like a 60s Late Show (black&white) scenario — the intrepid researcher working on a vaccine tests it on himself.. (Except in the movie version, the scientist survives, and gets the girl - cue theramin 'music' and credits...)
Seriously, though - if this bug is 'highly virulent', then how long was he out in public before succumbing?? Was he a good little sheeple and take the bus to work??
This one is definitely on my Watch List....
Did he know something about the Breitbart killing?
A little GLP would have gone a long way.
But there's hundreds of others whom he came in contact with at the grocery store, the gas station, the library, the parking lot, the mall, the local Starbucks and McDonald's where he ate lunch, his neighbors, the post office, and all those they've been in contact with. Yeah, another worry out there.
Thu May 3, 2012 10:48pm EDT is the time of the report.
He died one day after becomming ill. Seems like we should have heard about more infections by a week later.
" Seems like we should have heard about more infections by a week later. "
Don't know — the article only describes the time from diagnosis of gross, critial, symptoms until death..
It does not say -
1) when was he infected??
2) what is the gestation period of this bacterial strain in the host?? (this information is also not readily discernible from the Wikipedia article I skimmed just now..)
3) since meningococcal disease initially presents as flu-like symptoms, how long was he feeling mildly ill before going critical/septic and being diagnosed?? And 3a) how contagious is the disease during the mild-symptom phase?? (Wikipedia was also not forthcoming on this aspect..)
There are too many unknowns, especially in timeline and virulence, to justify the assumption that 'we should have heard by now'....
As a point of interest, the thread posted immediately after this one,
" Time magazine cover — forget the breast, what about the boy? "
has, at the time I'm typing this, 40 'reply' posts, where this one, which has some pretty serious public health implications, has — six..
I despair for my fellow FReepers, sometimes....
Maybe more FReepers feel qualified to comment on mammaries than on megabugs. One, we may handle every day, the other, not so much.
Oh, don't despair - we are reading.
And it is not time to head for the bunker, yet.
Now, had he taken an airplane flight...that would be another story.
I always find it interesting that our "news organizations" are far too busy reporting on Romney's high school escapades, and women who breastfeed their children until they are old enough to make their own peanut butter sandwiches, to bother with news such as this : |
Bread and Circuses.
Dear Lord, please guide our course out of this mess.
The son of a neighbor had aspirations of going to work at the Centers for Disease Control. He studied hard and then went to college and got his degree in microbiology. He then applied to the CDC and got accepted. Six months after he left for his dream job, I was driving by and he was mowing the grass at his parents house. I stopped to say hello and he told me he was back home. When I asked him about his job at the CDC, his comment was that he didn't know that it was that dangerous before he started work. Now he says, you can get killed with only a single mistake.
He now works for a pharmaceutical company.
They don't know how people get it. It's not something new nor a concern for most people. He must have been a young adult. It is generally a disease of teenagers and they do show up in clusters.
It's not really cause for alarm. I have handled it and been exposed to it 3 or 4 times in my career and never gotten it.
Or this
If 'this' was an incident to worry about, you would never have known about it.
Probably was texting.
The problem with "superbugs" is that the deadlier they are and the quicker they kill, the quicker the bug dies without getting transmitted. Organisms that can't transmit/reproduce are an evolutionary dead end.
Nasty diseases, not so much.

Comments about Recycled Glass Soap Dishes:
This is a beautiful piece but larger than I expected. We are using it as a decoration by standing it on end instead of a soap dish because of the size. Also, there are no feet or grippers on the bottom to keep it from slipping around. Because it is so beautiful (colors are very vibrant), it was well worth the money.

Comments about Recycled Glass Soap Dishes:
I bought this for my kitchen. I have a favorite olive oil-coffee ground-cinnamon bar soap that I love and wanted a beautiful soap dish that added some sparkle to the kitchen. The rough texture allows for air circulation around the bottom of the bar of soap so that it does not get slimy. If I could change one thing about the dish it would be to make it just a little bit bigger, but it is otherwise soap dish perfection!

Shares in Vanguard Natural Resources, LLC (NASDAQ:VNR) plunged 6.67% to $0.84 after the company missed an interest payment of about $15 million on its 7.785% of Senior Notes aggregating $381.8 million and due 2020.
The company averted a default event by taking recourse to the grace period allowed under the terms of the said notes, which is a period of 30 days from October 1, 2016. In the event it fails to make payment within the grace period it would deemed to be in default.
The sharp downturn in oil prices over the past two years has taken a severe toll on the finances of companies in the oil and gas sector. Last week, the Vanguard stock touched a 52-week low of $0.86 on news of an analyst's downgrade.
The company has also been under liquidity pressures because its bankers cut its borrowing base 26% from $1.8 billion to $1.325 billion.
Vanguard Natural Resources, LLC (NASDAQ:VNR) makes new low
As of August 1, 2016, Evercore is advising the company on identifying and negotiating with new potential capital sources and other financial matters.
"The First Lien Lenders consented to the Company's decision to preserve liquidity and flexibility pending the outcome of the fall borrowing base redetermination on the Credit Facility and as the Company continues to engage in constructive dialogue with new potential capital sources," Vanguard said, referring to its decision to invoke the grace period.
Given the situation in the energy industry, and the problems facing companies such as Vanguard, the recent decision by OPEC to limit output is not a day too soon.
But it is a moot point whether OPEC members will adhere to the output limits to be decided at the next meeting of the cartel.
Nevertheless, oil prices appear to have stemmed their slide for the time being.
All that is apparently not cutting much ice with analysts, however. Yesterday, analysts at Raymond James downgraded Vanguard from Market Perform to Underperform.
Shares in Vanguard touched a new 52-week low of $0.81 yesterday.

I have been going out with my best female friend of almost 5 years for a little over 2 months now, she makes it very clear that she is very into me in person and wants a relationship so I know the problem isn't because she isn't interested. She very very rarely texts me first and when she texts back they are usually short, emotionless texts that make me feel like I am just bugging her and she isn't interested in me. I tried to just completely not text her and wait for her to text me but that led to 3 days of no contact at all. I haven't kissed her yet and I plan to on out next date, but these mixed messages are confusing me very much. In person she seems to have fun and really like me, but other than that she seems to almost hate me.
Most Helpful Girl
She is just being protective towards herself.
She do not want to be so lovey dovey or joyful over texts when she does not know how you feel about her - as that possibly could pulls you away from her.
If she knows you are interested too, possibly she sets the boundary that way until you show more.
And girls like the boys to initiate first, so maybe you shouldn't wait for her text - just text whenever you want to, after all you guys are best friend!
Also be careful if she is occupied with dating other guys as well - not to be seen as bad, but if she don't get good response from you, she possibly thinks she shouldn't wait. When she is occupied, that could lead to short, emotionless text - as she is entertaining other guys.
But still could be many reasons to that. My advice is for you to show that you do like her too so that she feels comfortable talking to you. :)11|00|0

text: 1. A looming debt crisis, won't curtail deals by African, Malaysian, Colombian and Mexican companies, in addition to those in BRIC's. Even as cross border fears rattle markets on a daily basis, Krouskos says that after a boom in Chinese and Brazilian mergers and acquisitions, don't be surprised to see companies in Africa, Malaysia and less talked about Latin American countries like Colombia and Mexico be active in 2012. While some deal making may be between companies unfamiliar to U.S. retail investors, it doesn't mean that the trend won't hit U.S. companies. In 2011, Symantec ( SYMC), Chesapeake Energy ( CHK), Cephalon and Canada's Daylight Energy cut large deals with players in those regions, among others. While China reported that its GDP increased at the slowest rate in two years in the third quarter, growing at a 9.1% annualized rate, an Ernst & Young's Capital Confidence Barometer shows that "China will be the number one country in the world where companies are looking to invest or execute deals in the next year." Recently, deals like Huawei's $530 million purchase of an Asian joint-venture with Mountain View, Ca. -based Symantec, taken with Sinopec's reported interest in assets held by Marathon Oil ( MRO) and talks that China's Alibaba is looking to buy out minority-owned Asian assets held by Yahoo ( YHOO) potentially show increasing deal finesse that may lead to further Chinese deals involving U.S. companies. Booming Brazilian deals this year, which according to Dealogic utilities and energy sector data are near record levels, might spill to other Latin American neighbors like Colombia and Mexico in 2012. December deals in the region have included a $100 million minority stake and partnership deal cut by Delta ( DAL) in Brazil's Gol Linhas Aereas Inteligentes ( GOL) and Banco Santander's ( STD) sale of a 95% stake in Colombian CorpBanca for $1.16 billion. -- Written by Antoine Gara in New York

I've been rejected many times, and it made my attitude from bad to worse. There was some code I never met. For someone who pre-promised to be a good partner I surely never got one.
I felt segregated, and not sure I'd ever really want to date knowing I was treated like this in general.
I am cynical by nature, however I am good overall. I judge based on looks, even with guys, to establish "social standards". Even though I try to be nice, there is something inside saying I never will.
Not sure if I could ever date.
It would be an everlasting disaster.
