The stage is surely set for a home win in this weekend's German Grand Prix, as Sebastian Vettel enters on a high from his second victory of the season at the British Grand Prix. But then again, that's what everyone said about Jenson Button and Silverstone, a race that marked the low-water mark of his 2009 campaign to date.
One thing is for sure, barring something exceptional it will be all about the battle between Brawn GP and Red Bull Racing. Increasingly, it seems that the energy drinks giant's team holds the key cards - it has the fastest car, vastly improved tyre management and a driver, in Vettel, who is at the top of his game.
But to assume it will simply be a Red Bull benefit would be to underestimate Ross Brawn's men. Both teams have update packages ready to run on Friday, so don't bet against another shift in the competitive balance.

Customisation key for Altinex
Customisation is at the heart of a pair of releases from Altinex. This comes in the form of the CM Series bezel frames and the VP500-103 high-resolution media player.
The VP500-103 is designed with a customised experience for any A/V setup, featuring USB compatibility so that presentation preparation is a case of copying material to a flash drive and connecting it to the system. The media player also accommodates SD, SDHC, and MMC memory cards, while possessing its own 500MB flash drive.
The manufacturer states that the VP500-103 supports MPEG1 and MPEG2 for 480p or 720p and 1080i or 1080p video content respectively. Additionally, the system can display still images, such as JPG, BMP, PNG, and GIF, and play audio files, including MPR, WMA, and WAV.
A default track continuously loops when the VP500-103 is switched on, or when all inputs are de-selected. This can be a still image, such as a company logo, or a video file to ensure that audiences will not be subjected to a 'No Signal' message.
The VP500-103 reportedly features the ability to set the A/V output type to NTSC or PAL for use with the A/V output cable feeding a 3.5mm output signal to three RCA connectors for video and stereo audio. This is controlled by the remote, which provides the ability to configure the default track, adjust screen resolution and select additional functions.
Altinex' new bezel frames, dubbed the CM Series, have been designed for use with the TNP Jr and CNK Jr Series of interconnect boxes. Three products in two, three and four space configurations form the series: the CM12462, CM12463 and CM12464, respectively.
The CM Series is stackable, allowing integrators to mount multiple interconnect boxes together in a variety of formations, tailored to individual requirements. Altinex says that there will be multiple power and connectivity options, for example, USB charging, HDMI or VGA ports, or USB and network.
When discussing the customisation abilities of the CM Series bezel frames, Jack Gershfeld, president of Altinex said, 'integrators can not only determine what quantity and which interconnect units to install on a project, they can easily decide which direction the units should face'.

In 1807, the United States went to war with the British Empire over various reasons. American trade had expanded significantly from 1802 until the war began, with the United States Merchant Marine quadrupling during the same time frame. As the British public became angry due to their economy declining as a result of American expansion, war was debated in order to keep the British Empire even functioning. The French had also attained devastating victories upon the British and their allies in War of the Fourth Coalition (from 1806 until 1807).
The British impressed American sailors, and in order to ensure success, tortured a group of American sailors known as the Tortured Twelve. These same Twelve were shown to various sailors as they were captured to entice them to work as hard as possible as sailors and to try to quell any possibility of them refusing to be in their navy. In December 1806, American naval ships boarded a British naval vessel as they heard cries with many British and American men on board. As the American ship reported this to the government, it quickly was heard by President Jefferson, who although not wanting to go to war with the British, saw no other hope after attempts at diplomacy failed.
United States war with the British (1807-1808)
On March 7, 1807, the United States declared war on the British Empire. One week after the declaration was received by a British envoy, American troops invaded Canada, with a rallying cry Remember the Twelve. It was effectively a stalemate, with a slight American advance, due to a freak storm devastating British ships in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. The British requested the help of Spain, and stated that they would be allowed to have Oregon Territory if they succeeded in harming the Americans.
Spain and Britain fight the United States (1808-1809)
The Spanish Empire declared war on the United States on October 3, 1807. New Spain quickly mobilized, while soldiers were promised a devastated America and they were merely going in to collect the riches. They quickly gained control of the Louisiana Territory, with the exception of the region surrounding New Orleans. Spanish ships full of men landed on the coast of North Carolina in November. American resistance was strong and they killed half of the initial wave of Spanish troops, though they were equally devastated and most civilians and soldiers alike retreated northward to protect the capital, Washington D.C., from invasion. The Americans lost their slight gains in Canada and most of the defenses were centered on Michigan in the Mid-West. Thomas Jefferson was reelected to a third time due to the state of affairs. This maintained the status quo until May 1809.
Union of Egliriate Sentia declares independence; Republic of Delaware declares independence
A group of Congressmen met in Philadelphia, unknown to some of the Congress, to argue over what to do over the current state of affairs. Many feared that the United States would be conquered, but President Jefferson had refused to cede any of America's land to the Spanish Empire. Pennsylvania Governor Simon Snyder arrived at the meeting after he heard rumors of Congresmen meeting in Philadelphia. He threatened to tell President Jefferson of the meeting and asked the Congresmen why he shouldn't do so. The men stated that there would need to be a temporary Congress until elections could be held and that he would be the Speaker of whatever legislature would be formed. He agreed to their terms and this was not discovered until after the Union fell. The Congressmen also decided that they would quickly form a constitution, though they would make it so the government could not become totalitarian easily. The Declaration of Independence and Constitution of the Union of the Egliriate Sentia was signed on May 14, 1809. It was made up of a union composed of the sentium (a new term for states) of New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Ohio, Kentucky. Several other territories would be formed into another group of sentia known as Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin. Territories east of the Mississippi were also claimed by the Sentia.
Former Senator Henry Clay was named the Acting Commander of the Egliriate by the Congressmen attending. The Representatives from Delaware refused to sign the Constitution and Declaration of Independence and also blackmailed the other Congressmen into letting themselves form a Republic of Delaware. Both the Republic of Delaware and the Union of Egliriate Sentia mutually recognized each others nations and independence from the United States. They also issued an olive branch petition to both the British and Spanish Empires, stating that if they took all terrtiory south of them, they would not act. However, if they advanced northward, both the Union and the Republic would declare war upon them.
Sentia and Delaware react well; United States government and people distraught
As soon as the declarations arrived for Thomas Jefferson to see, he knew that he would not be able to fight back against them and immediately ordered all military in the Washington area to collect all items of historical importance and evacuate the government to Boston. Luckily for him, American naval ships were nearby so government members could be quickly evacuated. As the southern United States was conquered, the British and Spanish empires accepted the petition and made ceasefire agreements temporarily with both the Sentia and Republic.
Ceasefire (1809-1813)
As President Jefferson arrived in Boston, he immediately organized all available people to make a quickly put together Capitol Building out of existing buildings. As the ceasefire continued, Jefferson met both the UES and Delaware delegations in 1811 and agreed to recognize both of them, as he hoped to keep the remaining part of his country alive.
Treaty of Paris (1813)
Presidents Thomas Jefferson of the USA and Henry Clay of the UES, and Kings George III of Great Britain and Charles I met in Paris on September 6, 1813. The treaty that was made forced the United States to cede the southern United States to the British Empire, but the United States would be ceded a small amount of land north of New England in southeast Canada. The Republic of Delaware and the Union of Egliriate Sentia would also be officially recognized. However, the territories west of the Mississippi would be ceded to New Spain. Spain also declared its intention to create an Autonomous Indian Territory that would take up a huge portion of the Mid-West. Spain and Britain also agreed to have a joint territory surrounding New Orleans and going northward.
Government of the Union of Egliriate Sentia
According to the Constitution, the Union was to be split into three major separate entities of government. The Commander of the Egliriate would have both executive and judicial functions. He would be elected for life after approval by 2/3 of both of the Chambers of the Egliriate and the Council of the Sentium, and an election by more then half of the people to a one-term limit 8 year term. If one of these branches did not approve the new Commander by the expiration of the previous Commander's term, the Acting Commander would be the Speaker of the Chamber of the People, but the role of commander-in chief would be fulfilled by the Chief General of the UES Federal Militia. The Commander's other functions would include determining the constitutionality of laws, except those regarding impeachment. They would also be the Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces, the Head of State, and nominate the Council of the Sentia.
The Commander of the Egliriate would be subject to impeachment by 2/3 of either the Council of the Sentia or by both of the Chambers of the Egliriate, or by over half of the Council of the Sentia and both Chambers of the Egliriate.
The Council of the Sentia would be nominated for each Sentium in the UES by the Commander. However, they must be approved by 2/3 of both of the Chambers of the Egliriate. The Council must pass legislation and if over 1/2 of them don't approve the legislation, both of the Chambers of the Egliriate must override the veto by 3/4 majority. They would also serve as an executive function of the government. Each member of the council would have a six-year one-term limit.
The Chambers of the Egliriate would be subdivided into the Chamber of the People and the Chamber of Order. The Chamber of the People would be elected by popular vote once per year by the people in elections. The Chamber of Order would be nominated by elected by popular vote for life. However, members of the Chamber of Order could be impeached by 2/3 majority of the Chamber of the People.

Jamie Oliver's World's Best Baked Onions
Recipe by bluemoon downunder
I found this recipe on The Splendid Table website. What I am posting here is an adaptation of the adaptation I found there of a recipe for Baked Onions from 'Happy Days with the Naked Chef' by Jamie Oliver. Sounds well-worth trying. Baked onions are a great accompaniment to roasts. To significantly reduce the fat content, use a low-fat or reduced fat cream.
Top Review by Noo8820
I saw the programme when Jamie made these as part of Sunday lunch for pop band Jamiroquai,and made a mental note to try them one day.So I was pleased when I saw that BlueMoon had posted it. I also added some chopped bacon to the onion mixture,which was really lovely.I served this along side our Christmas roast,and it went down well.I would also recommend smaller onions,as I felt they were a little on the large side. A lovely dish,with good flavours,that looks great too.Thanks BlueMoon,I'll be doing this again.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 4 white onions, tennis-ball-sized, peeled
- olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves, peeled and finely chopped
- 4 sprigs fresh rosemary, lower leaves picked and chopped
- 8 tablespoons heavy cream
- grated parmesan cheese
- sea salt
- fresh ground black pepper
- 4 slices pancetta or 4 slices bacon
Directions See How It's Made
- Boil the onions in plenty of water for 15 minutes or until slightly tender.
- Remove the onions from the pan and allow to cool.
- With a sharp knife, remove the top inch of each onion, finely chop and place to one side.
- Slightly trim the stalk end of the onions so that the onions will sit flat on a roasting tray.
- Taking care to keep the outside of each onion intact, cut about a heaped tablespoon of onion out from the inside of each onion.
- Finely chop these removed sections of the onion and add to the rest of the chopped onion.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- Heat a saute pan and add a little olive oil, the garlic, the chopped onions, and just a little of the chopped rosemary.
- Saute for a couple of minutes until the garlic and onion have softened, then turn the heat down, add the cream and remove the onions and garlic from the heat.
- Stir in the Parmesan and season.
- Wrap a slice of pancetta around the middle of each onion and spike it in place with a sharpened twig of rosemary or a wooden toothpick.
- Place the onions on a roasting tray and spoon some of the chopped onion mixture inside each one.
- Bake in the preheated oven for around 25 minutes until the onions are soft and tender.
- How long this takes is, of course, dependent on the size of the onions. "It's cool to experiment with different cheeses, so give it a bash," says Jamie.
- I presume he is suggesting topping the baked onions with cheese.
- When the onions are cooked right through, remove and serve.

Capture the windows username of the person filling out the form?Asked by Mike H on August 05, 2013 at 02:23 PM
I have a Jot form that emplyees are filling out as a training log. I want a way to verify that the person filling out the form is who they say they are. I thought the best way to do this would be to capture the username they used to log into our computer system.
Is this possible?
Is thgere a better method off verifying who filled out the form?
JotForm Support
Hi Mike,
When you say computer system, do you mean capture the computer user account? I'm not sure if this is possible but you can take your form source code How to get your Form Source Code and inject custom scsipts that'd capture the username though I am not sure what programming language needed to capture the computer account. But, if you mean website platforms like Wordpress, Joomla, that's doable. Jut let us know here if you have further questions or if you require further assistance.
JotForm Support
By the way, forms also capture submitters IP, if that helps.
While on your My Forms page, select form > Click Submissions. Follow this visual guides:
What I mean is to capture the Windows username of the person filling out the form.
JotForm Support
Hi Mike,
Unfortunately that's not possible. I tried finding possible scripts via google and found nothing so I think there's no possible solution to this.

When BlackBerry CEO Thorsten Heins first introduced the BlackBerry Q5 back in May, the device was a sizzling hot red color. That is just one of the four colors that the Q5 will eventually be available in. The other choices are black, white and pink. Not all of the colors are so widely available. For example, when the QWERTY-equipped model was released in Germany last week, it was available only in Henry Ford's favorite color, black.
If you got caught up in wanting the red version of the phone after seeing it in the grasp of CEO Heins, you can now order it from U.K. retailer Carphone Warehouse which has an exclusive on the color. The red BlackBerry Q5 can be yours free with a signed two-year contract from carriers like Orange, T-Mobile, Vodafone, EE and Talk Mobile, starting from £21 per month ($31.29 USD). If you want it SIM free with no handcuffs, that price will be £319.95 ($477 USD).
This is BlackBerry's lone entry-level BlackBerry 10 powered model for the moment, although last month an image of a phone called the BlackBerry Z5 was outed.

You might be if you have a family history or you're changing your life to fulfill the need of whatever you're hooked on, according to addiction medicine specialist, Dr. Drew Pinsky.
Pinsky, who is a paid spokesman for Nicorette, a stop-smoking gum company, explained on "The Early Show" that people who are addicted experience some kind of consequence -- a failed marriage, health diagnosis, or job loss -- but cannot stop using.
Pinsky said all addictions share a common biology.
"Addictions are all a distortion of the brain's rewards system, in such a way that it distorts the brain's fundamental motivational systems," he said. "So the usual motivations: working, loving your family, eating and sleeping, maintaining your health, those things that are usually coloring our brain's activity become submerged and the single motivation emerges, which is 'Use the drug.' Literally, the brain's biology confuses the message of the drug with the message of survival itself."
Pinsky added that if your addiction gets bad enough that you need to see an addiction specialist like him, there's a nearly 100 percent chance that you've experienced some type of childhood trauma.
"A child that has been traumatized leaves the frame, which is an interpersonal frame, they don't trust anymore, they can't tolerate closeness, so the frame that allows us to develop the capacity for emotional regulation, is exited," Pinsky said. "So these kids, as young adults, do not develop the emotional capacity for emotional regulations, so feelings are too prolonged, too negative, too intense, too stuck. So they start reaching outside of themselves for a substance to regulate -- cigarettes, alcohol, drugs, sex -- and then they trigger the addictive process."
Pinsky said in society, severe addiction is becoming more severe. The norm, he said, isn't just one addiction, but several.
"It's relatively rare these days to see the straight-up alcoholic; they're always addicted to pills, other substances."

Academy Issues Weak Sauce Apology for Anti-Asian Jokes
March 15, 2016
I'm going to create a new Tumblr: Weak Sauce Apologies For Racism.
Initial entries would include Emma Stone's "my eyes have been opened" apology for appearing as an Asian American woman in Cameron Crowe's Aloha; James Bond writer Anthony Horowitz's 140-character mea culpa for calling Idris Elba "too street" to play his titular character; and Mark Wahlberg's request to be pardoned for an anti-Asian hate crime assault.
We can also add another one to the list. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences issued a weak sauce, two sentence apology today, nearly three weeks after it aired a skit during the Oscars that invoked anti-Asian "model minority" and "child labour" stereotypes while exploiting three Asian American children as racial props.
Oscars Controversy Reminds That Asians Don't Matter in Hollywood
March 8, 2016
Guest Contributor: Larissa Lam (@larissalam)
For weeks we have endured endless chatter about #OscarsSoWhite and how to better increase diversity in Hollywood. Now that the awards season has officially ended and the Academy Awards have been handed out, I can finally give my two cents about this.
I watched the Oscars knowing that the acting categories were going to be swept by white actors – after all, only white actors had been nominated. Yet, I could tell that the producers of the show, one of whom was Reginald Hudlin, a black film producer and former BET president, were trying to at least showcase diversity among the chosen presenters. I was happy to see Priyanka Chopra, Lee Byung-Hun and Olivia Munn presenting awards. Diversity was on display in some categories: Mexican filmmaker Alejandro Inarritu won Best Director for The Revenant, Indian-British director Asif Kapadia won for the documentary Amy, Chileans, Gabriel Osorio Vargas and Pato Escala Peirart, won for Best Animated Short, and Pakistani-Canadian filmmaker Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy won for Best Documentary Short.
Ok, so the Oscars were not completely white. But, they came pretty close to being so, and that's because Hollywood is, itself, exclusionary.
How Chris Rock Undermines His Own Message With Unnecessary (and Racist) Anti-Asian Jokes
March 1, 2016
At the age of 51, Chris Rock has evolved far beyond being the brash stand-up comedy of his early days. His latest film projects (Head of State, I Think I Love My Wife, and Top Five) are characteristically funny, but what makes them resonate is their meta-textual commentary on race, politics and Chris Rock's personal life. With his latest slate of films, Rock no longer simply entertains; he expresses himself and explores the world around him as part comedian, part philosopher, part public intellectual.
In particular, Top Five offered insight into Rock's reflections – oftentimes wistful and self-critical — on being a Black man in White Hollywood, and the distance that this placed between him and the rest of Black America. It's a fantastic, deeply intimate film that deserves a wider reach than it received, but it is not without its flaws. Others have written about Top Five's bad gay joke, but fewer have mentioned that Chris Rock slipped in some cringe-inducing and completely unnecessary anti-Asian jokes over the course of the film.
It has been a little while since I've seen Top Five, but at least one joke involves Rock grilling Rosario Dawson's character – who plays Rock's love interest — about her dating history, incredulous that a past boyfriend was Asian. The implication, of course, was that Asian and Asian American men are bad in bed. Dawson rejects the remark by pointing out that Asians make up a large segment of the world's population and therefore – of course – Asian men are good at sex, but the damage is done. As others in the theatre laughed at yet another comedian made yet another joke about the (untrue) stereotype of the "small Asian penis", I felt angered, betrayed and marginalized as an Asian American woman.
What was perhaps even more frustrating was that the inclusion of these objectively racist jokes in Top Five was totally unnecessary. Top Five is otherwise a smart, well-written, and racially nuanced film that offered a compelling deep dive into contemporary Blackness. So: why did he also include the totally pointless, unfunny, and lazy humour of Asian-bashing and gay-bashing?
That's pretty much how I feel about Sunday night's Oscars.
New Website Aims to Create Comprehensive Database of anti-Asian Media Stereotypes, But…
September 30, 2015
Negative, oftentimes racist, portrayals of Asian Americans have persisted in Western media for over a century. When we are not entirely absent from media representation, we appear mostly in exaggerated and stereotyped form: rodent-like subhumans; alien threats; hypersexualized objects of desire; buffoonish clowns; socially maladjusted nerds; martial artists; criminal gangsters. Too often, these performances are coupled with the absence of even an Asian American face: instead, non-Asian actors adopt these and other stereotypes to enact Asian-ess through yellowface.
A new website — Kulture — now seeks to act as a watchdog for Asian American representation in popular media by inviting crowd-sourced submission of stereotypical depictions for inclusion in their database.
Top-ranked running back Soso Jamabo references song that fetishizes Asian women in UCLA commit
February 4, 2015
(H/T @_eeekric16_)
I don't follow football much — let alone college football — so I wasn't aware until about mid-morning that today is national Signing Day, when colleges sign incoming freshmen players to join their on-campus football teams. Which, I guess, is a big enough deal that Sports Illustrated (among other media outlets) is live-blogging the whole thing.
The second highest ranked running back this year is 5-star player Soso Jamabo, from Plano, Texas. SB Nation reported that several schools were competing for Jamabo with three — UCLA, Texas and Notre Dame — most favoured to win his commitment.
This morning, Jamabo announced that he would be committing to UCLA; and he made that announcement not only in a press conference but also on Twitter, where he tweeted the following tweet.

I know some of you have never used walkbehinds , belt drives, T bars and pistol grips, but I need advice from those that have been around most styles. I have never used a belt drive walk behind. I have used pistol grips so ofton that it does not bother me. I need a reasonable priced 32 [ newer 32 standers cost atleast $5000 ] which leaves them out just to make 10 back yards easier. Used 32 walk behinds are around in belt drives. I only see new 32 hydros in a couple brands. Ok so do you think I might freak out on a belt drive and hate it after only using hydros? Some of you have had to have used belt drives for years what you think? Pros and cons. Here are a few things that I have read on here that get me doubting an easy purchase. Belt drives are hard on the body and do not have reverse. ?? Ferris Single hydros are not much better than belts and are hard to steer?? New 32 Dual hydro BOPS are priced great small and light weight, but clog all the time in all grass types and the bagger tabs always bend?? Hydro 32 Wright standers are pricey and super heavy but the best choice?? Just get a used 32 Belt Scag with grass catcher and run it until the wheels fall off and burn then fix it and go some more.. lol Please add to this list in anyway you want. Belt drives ok for a couple hours a day? Thanks in advance

CES 2011 was an exciting event for the mobile community, and we were treated to some amazing handsets there. What's even better is that there are indications that at least two of them are not going to be too hard on the budget. That was demonstrated by two (now removed) Amazon screenshots - the first one displayed a $149 price for the Motorola ATRIX 4G, while, according to the second one, the HTC Inspire 4G will cost mere $99.
Furthermore, a rumour states that the Motorola ATRIX 4G is expected to hit AT&T on February 13 and it's set to cost $100, so there is every chance that a price war may occur, which is great for us as end customers.
Mind that another of the handsets presented during CES - the much-anticipated LG Optimus 2X, which happens to be the first phone to be powered by a dual-core processor - is taking a tour in our office, and you'll soon get an unboxing and video preview.
Are you getting one of these beauties, especially given the fact these prices look like the real deal?

Special Coverage
State of the Industry: North America
DETROIT – To say General Motors Co. President and CEO Fritz Henderson would like to put 2009 in his rearview mirror would be an understatement.
Certainly not alone in his disdain for a year when the auto industry witnessed its sharpest and most prolonged downturn in the post-war era, as head of the now-defunct General Motors Corp. it's unlikely anyone saw the carnage more closely or came under greater scrutiny for the breadth of its impact.
"Look," he exhales, "it's been a tough, tough year; 2009 is a year I'll be happy to finish."
As chief operating officer of the old GM until his former boss Rick Wagoner was pushed aside by President Obama, Henderson was at ground zero for development of company viability plans twice shredded by the government.
At the same time, he remained responsible for the efficiency and effectiveness of the old GM's sprawling operations as the global new-vehicle sales market languished at record lows.
After Obama's team ousted Wagoner the last weekend in March, Henderson took the wheel at the old GM with a mandate from the president to shake off billions of dollars of debt and gain big labor concessions from the United Auto Workers union or steer the industrial icon into bankruptcy.
The UAW played ball, but big bond holders did not. Shareholders were wiped out. Factories were shuttered, and thousands of hourly and salaried jobs disappeared. Thousands more employees have, or will, soon lose jobs at dealerships across the nation as GM shrinks its retail footprint.
During the new GM's first financial update, Henderson characterized damages from the 39-day bankruptcy as "substantial, and under no circumstances should be minimized." If quantified financially, he speculates those damages would reach into "the tens of billions of dollars."
Washington critics of the government's support to the auto maker suggest the damage is not over, pointing to GM's $1.2 billion loss in its first quarterly financial report released in November. The partisan rhetoric overshadowed news of the auto maker's surprisingly solid cash flow and its plan to reimburse $6.7 billion in taxpayer loans early.
Just days before, a report from the Government Accountability Office speculated taxpayers never would be fully reimbursed for the total $50 billion two presidential administrations extended to GM over the last 11 months.
But inside his office atop GM world headquarters here, where a clear day affords the view of iron ore and coal freighters plying the Detroit River as they have for all of the auto maker's 101 years, the 50-year-old Henderson says he looks forward to disproving critics.
"I'm highly confident we'll be able to repay," the 25-year GM veteran tells Ward's.
Henderson draws much of his confidence from GM's squeaky clean balance sheet – newly unencumbered by pension, health-care and other debt obligations yoking the previous company.
"There are a lot fewer claims on the cash flow of the firm before you get to the shareholder," he says.
But Henderson also banks big on a turnaround in new-vehicle sales. Most emerging markets sped out of the global recession and now are operating as if nothing happened. For instance, GM expects 12.0 million new-car sales in China this year, an astonishing 1.5 million units ahead of the U.S.
"I certainly would not have seen China exceeding the U.S. in volume in 2009," he says incredulously. "It is just remarkable. I thought it would happen in the second half of the next decade."
Brazil and India also continue to outperform expectations, although Henderson believes Russia remains a year away from regaining some of the tremendous promise it showed before commodity prices plummeted this year.
However, continued high unemployment and lackluster new-home construction continue to stifle any sales rebound in the U.S., GM's biggest revenue-producing market.
For perspective, Ward's data shows GM sales hit their low point in February at 126,198. That's down 59% from February 2005, one of the industry's peak years.
"In order for GM to achieve real success, we need to have all these engines running and most notably, most importantly, North America," Henderson says. "The North American business must get rolling in order for us to be prosperous.
"It will recover," adds the Detroit native with degrees from Harvard Business School and the University of Michigan, where he pitched for the varsity baseball team as an undergraduate.
"With 300 million people, credit coming back into the market, the number of licensed drivers going up every year – there's no reason the U.S. should be at the same levels as post World War II in terms of per-capita demand," Henderson says.
GM plans for a modest recovery next year, predicting total U.S. industry sales of 11.5 million units, with Canada contributing another 1.5 million. The auto maker forecasts between 800,000 and 900,000 sales for Mexico.
Much of GM's success in the U.S. in 2010 hinges on whether its four core brands – Chevrolet, Cadillac, Buick and GMC – can assume the market share now controlled by its four lame-duck brands. GM has agreements to sell its Hummer SUV and Saab car divisions, while it will phase out Saturn and Pontiac by the end of the year.
In October, the core brands commanded 90% of GM's total volume for the month. Part of the results came from GM shifting all of its advertising, except for a new marketing program designed to clear out the dead brands, to its core portfolio.
Longer term, Henderson expects to retain share because the core-brand vehicles today, as well as those down the road, are far superior to models previously found spread across eight divisions.
For example, he expects the new-for-'10 Chevy Equinox and GMC Terrain cross/utility vehicles to make up for volume lost with the Pontiac Torrent and Saturn Vue. "We hugely traded up," between the models, Henderson says.
He also downplays the effect of Pontiac's absence on GM's market share. According to Ward's data, the brand accounted for 8.3% of the auto maker's sales in 2008, and this year is on track for 9.5%, although inventories are getting awfully thin.
"Our biggest concern was really (the) G6," Henderson says of the midsize Pontiac sedan, coupe and convertible. "A fair amount of it was fleet. (The) Malibu could take its place.
"But I am absolutely convinced we will be far more successful trying to manage four brands than eight," he says. "Certainly we can at a 10.5 million-unit market – maybe you can argue differently in a 17 million-unit market – but it is unequivocal at 10 million or 10.5 million."
That means no more duds, Henderson warns. With fewer brands and fewer nameplates, GM no longer can endure those days when 10 vehicle launches yielded "two great, three good, the other five average, or one or two that didn't work," he says.
"We cannot afford to do that," Henderson says deliberately.
Each launch also must be of the highest quality, and each vehicle must pay its way, an approach Henderson hopes will keep GM especially competitive in the near term as rivals roll out more robust product blitzes.
"I am pleased with what we have coming," he says of GM's plans for 25 cars and CUVs over the next 24 months. "Not as much" as some auto makers, he admits, but "we're OK with quantity. We're really excited about the quality."
Henderson cites the upcoming '11 Chevy Cruze, which replaces the Cobalt compact car.
"You might say, 'OK, you've got one new small car in the Chevy showroom replacing (the) Cobalt.' But I count that as a major, major change. What car are you replacing, and does it give you a chance to make progress in the market?" he offers.
The Cruze also has a better opportunity to generate revenue compared with the Cobalt, and its potential for profit contribution is higher – key factors to all vehicles in GM's portfolio as it shifts from a reliance on trucks to smaller, more fuel-efficient cars and CUVs.
"Every entry in the portfolio has a rent factor it has to pay," says Henderson, who fully expects upward pressure on oil prices as the U.S. recovers and emerging markets continue to grow.
"A Cruze will pay less rent than a Cadillac CTS, just because it is priced lower. Nonetheless, the Cruze should pay a certain amount of rent. We need to have the discipline, so that everything in our lineup is paying rent."
Gone are the days when GM could rely on its fullsize pickups and SUVs to save its bottom line. The fullsize SUV market this year is roughly 250,000 units, Henderson notes, while a few short years ago it was 900,000 strong.
"We still enjoy 60% to 70% of the segment, so it is still important to us. But the segment, itself, is a fraction of what it was four years ago, so it can't be the profit engine for the company. We have to have far more of our vehicles generating profit," he says.
Also gone are the days when GM kept its assembly plants running even when demand did not warrant, leading to incentive-driven sales that eroded residual values. Consumers got burned on their trade-in and never returned.
So despite appeals from the Canadian Auto Workers union to go beyond one shift for the red-hot Chevy Camaro sports car in Oshawa, ON, Canada, GM remains content with one shift and overtime. Inventories of pickup trucks, always high to meet a wide range of customer preferences on body styles and engine installation, now are at historic lows.
At the same time, GM's CAMI joint-venture assembly plant in Ingersoll, ON, Canada, is running at three shifts and plans to invest $85 million to increase production of the Equinox and Terrain CUVs.
"The approach of running a much more lean level of inventory is absolutely the right one for us to use," Henderson says. "We can go even leaner in our inventory levels."
Well-known in the industry as a quick decision maker, Henderson unquestionably finds himself challenged remaking GM under a timetable measured in months rather than years.
Thus far, he has the support of GM's new board of directors, and the auto maker's latest products largely have been well-received by critics and consumers – evidence momentum is building just three months removed from bankruptcy.
But the full-throttle approach won't come without a busted bearing or two, as evidenced by Henderson's desire to take the new company public as soon as possible in order for its reluctant investors to begin divesting their stakes.
Ed Whitacre, GM's newly installed chairman, has sought to quiet talk of a second-half IPO after Ward's reported Henderson's goal to at least have the auto maker's books ready within that timetable.
Nonetheless, the sense of urgency brought on by Henderson's bold management style is yielding more early positives than negatives.
As the sale of GM's European Adam Opel GmbH unit to a consortium of investors led by Canadian parts maker Magna International Inc. dragged on and GM's finances started to show better-than-expected traction, Henderson floated the idea of keeping the German subsidiary.
The GM board concurred, and the deal was killed at the 11th hour.
In another bold stroke, Henderson installed Bob Socia to lead the auto maker's massive purchasing operation after longtime chief Bo Andersson left earlier this year to lead Russian auto maker OJSC GAZ.
A GM lifer with years of purchasing experience at the company, Socia sent an early message to suppliers that his appointment did not mean business as usual – within two months he unveiled a new program promising speedier parts payments and another plan to share more generously on their cost-saving ideas.
"He has, from my perspective, the imperative to change," Henderson says of Socia's marching orders. "Nobody is going to know better than he what we can do to change, because it is time to change."

|RE: 2.2 migration - my approach
|Sat, 01 Feb 2003 17:32:22 GMT
I think you are right Walt, I've made a mistake thinking switching from NumberKey to int would be better than Integer. It relates to my other message from yesterday too. I'd submit an update to the doc, to strongly recommend Integer (null/non-null testing) over int, but I'm still working on the migration here. Now I'll add reworking this part to my list. Whew. I wish the migration suggestions included "You'll be happier if you use Integer" somewhere. While I'm posting, I did get my project to compile without making a bunch of logic changes to my code... but had to resort to a bit of ugliness which, unless there's a better way, explains to me why there's no deprecated methods provided for those of us who dived in at 2.1... since a method cannot request the return type, I had to change my source to call a new deprecated method name for "get" requests: public NumberKey getBlogId_DEPnumberkey() { logDeprecated(); Integer idI = new Integer( getBlogId() ); return new NumberKey( idI.toString() ); } At 1:24 PM -0800 1/30/03, Walt Armour wrote: >We ran into the NumberKey/int thing as well.

"Shaddock" fruit was first discovered in Barbados and later renamed "Grapefruit" given its resemblance to grapes - growing in small clusters on a tree (they were a bit smaller back then).
Today, grapefruits are primarily grown in Florida and Arizona - with each grapefruit tree producing between 1300 and 1500 pounds of fruit a year. That's a lot of fruit!
Whether you squeeze it for juice, eat it plain, have it on a salad or pair it with your main meal, grapefruits are great for you.
Known as an excellent source of Vitamin C (which is great for the immune system) grapefruits also contain a good amount of Vitamin A (important for growth and the good health of cells and tissues), as well as Vitamins B6, Niacin, thiamin, calcium, potassium and magnesium.
So have a grapefruit. And if your looking for a great recipe momme meals Toasted Grapefruit with Cinnamon, Chia & Coconut Almond Crumble is worth a try!

May 11, 2012
ABC has renewed Happy Endings for a third season. The network has ordered 22 new episodes of the comedy for the 2012-2013 season.
Happy Endings started out as a mid-season replacement in 2011 with a short 13-episode order. At the time it was considered on-the-bubble for renewal, but once ABC brought it back for a full 22 episode second season, the show really grew into its own. The show finished off Season 2 back in April, but there is no word on a return date at this time.

We are running late this year. Me barely being home has switched our whole dynamic. Instead of getting our tree Thanksgiving weekend we got it last weekend. And instead of decorating it right then, well, we did it last night! Sort of. We are still missing our yearly ornaments (and we still need to get this year's). I guess I wil have to take all Sunday to finish decorating the house before my parents come visit (!!!).

Man could face 14-years for sexually assaulting his nephew's young friend
A Dublin man could face up to 14 years in jail for sexually assaulting his nephew's young friend, a court has heard.
The man (62), who cannot be named for legal reasons, pleaded guilty at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court to sexually assaulting the then 11-year-old boy at his nephew's house on May 19, 2013.
Garda Liam Healy told Maddie Grant BL, prosecuting, that the man fondled the boy's private parts after he had sat him on his knee in the living room when nobody else was present. He then touched the boy's bottom.
Gda Healy said the incident lasted a number of seconds and finished when another person called to the front door of the house.
The court heard that the boy returned to his own home later, but couldn't sleep that night because of the incident.
He complained to his mother after school the next day about what had happened and she notified gardai. The man, who has no previous convictions, made full admissions in interview.
Gda Healy agreed with Sarah-Jane O'Callaghan BL, defending, that her client expressed "genuine remorse" for his actions to gardaí.
Ms O'Callaghan submitted to Judge Martin Nolan that her client had suffered a number of personal tragedies in recent times and had been defrauded of his life savings.
She said as a result he had no compensation at present to offer the boy.
Counsel submitted that her client had been sexually abused by his uncle as a child and that he was now attending counselling for this and other tragedies in his background.
Ms Grant told the judge that because of the victim's young age, the maximum penalty for the crime is 14 years in jail.
Judge Nolan remanded the man, who has previously been placed on the Sex Offenders Register, on continuing bail for his sentence finalisation on Monday.

I have a friend that is amazing and I'm fairly certain that she is interested in me as well, however she is going to grad school about 5 hours drive away. During vacations she comes back and lives really close by, but she is in her first semester of grad school and will be there for a while.
Most Helpful Girl
If you really like her than go for it. Just keep in mind long distance relationships take a lot of extra work and trust. If you want just a casual fling or something easy then don't but if you are willing to take monthly 5 hour trips to see her than I would totally go for it.00|00|0
Is it relevant that I have never had a girlfriend before?
if you have never had a gf before i would give it a try because most first time relationships don't work out but this would be a good first try relationship
