Need Ideas For What To Use For Toulle On A Dress, Help!!!
Decorating By madaboutcakes2 Updated 4 Mar 2010 , 7:19pm by Jack031
I am making a Quinceniera cake with a gumpaste girl on top wearing a strapless white gown. I was hoping to mimic the picture she gave me. The top layer of the dress has toulle. Any ideas how I might accomplish this? Thanks for any suggestions.
The only thing that I can think of would be to roll some gumpaste super thin. And then take some real tulle and press it into the gumpaste. Hopefully, it will transfer some of the pattern.
You could do gum paste or fondant then do some sort of textured pattern on top of to transfer it over. Sugar veil might work also, though sugar veil sometimes can be tricky to use some days it works while others it doesn't want to.

And if you could explain your reasoning, that would be great!
Have an opinion?
Yes, especially if she's like "oh you'll like her"
And during the first 5 minutes you realize...'that she's totally NOT who you're looking for'
Put it this way.. it could horribly or absolutely a amazing.
A risk I'm willing to take.
Yes, I just want to be single :o
of course not. if my friends set me up on a date with someone, it means i agreed to go through with it. it's not like they would try and set me up without my consent
what i'm saying is if i hated it i wouldn't want to be set up in the first place
well i am not that incompetent to set my own date
I've never been "set up" on a date before, and I hope I never am. I'd rather make my own romantic choices.
No one has set me up on a date but chances are I would hate it
Why do you think you'd hate it?
I have very specific likes

SINGAPORE, Feb 26 (Reuters) - Singapore sovereign wealth fund GIC cut its stake in warehouse operator Global Logistic Properties (GLP) by about a quarter, selling around 596 million GLP shares at S$2.60 each, according to a term sheet seen by Reuters.
The sale, which raised about $1.25 billion, was at the bottom of a S$2.60-$2.66 per share indicative range. GLP closed at S$2.75 on Monday.
The Government of Singapore Investment Corp (GIC) said in a statement on Tuesday that the sale was part of the sovereign fund's "regular rebalancing activities for its overall portfolio" and that it remained a substantial long-term shareholder.
"We are pleased with the company's execution of its strategies and are confident of its long-term prospects," GIC added.
The sale means the Singapore sovereign fund's stake in GLP will fall to about 36 percent from 49 percent, according to Reuters calculations.
GLP, which owns warehouses in Japan, China and Brazil, last year, formed joint ventures with the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPPIB), China Investment Corp and GIC to buy 40 properties worth around $1.4 billion in the Latin American country.
It owns, manages and leases 525 completed properties in 194 logistics parks spread across the three countries.
JPMorgan was the sole bookrunner for the GLP share sale. (Reporting by Kevin Lim; Editing by Richard Pullin)

Let's catch up (& suggestions please!)
Ahh! The light.. it burns! It's been ages since I last updated my blog and I get a painful feeling in my stomach when I think about it.. So let's not mention it again! Basically, I just wanted to catch up a bit. I'm doing a fulltime internship of over 40 hours a week right now, so that explains my lack of activity. The first week of july will be the final week of internship, so until then I will mainly update my instagram, instead of my blog. So if you're interested in seeing some activity, you can follow me there!
Other than me being almost done with college, some other important stuff is happening soon. For starters, the date of our move is coming closer and closer now! Once we get the keys, I'll be vlogging everything! Partly because I like sharing this important step in my life, but also to keep track of the progress and to be able to look back to it in a few months or years. I think I'll be updating my blog from time to time as well (I mean.. once you see the interior that we picked, you'll understand why!), but most of the house-related activity will be on Youtube. If you're interested, I'm going to be using this channel for my future lifestyle videos and vlogs. I also have another channel, which is my Disney channel. So if you're in for some cute Disney related videos and vlogs, feel free to check that one out as well! Both channels will be in English.
Speaking of Disney, my next Disneyland Paris audition is coming up next month. This time I'll finally be able to actually accept a contract if it gets to that point, unlike last time when I had to refuse the contract because of school.. I'm really hoping I can move to Paris this summer or fall, but it all depends on that one audition! I'll keep you guys up to date on the auditions, mostly through twitter.
Last thing I want to mention is that I'm literally bouncing up and down of excitement, because I have SO much new stuff that I want to show you guys! Stuff for the house, clothes, accessories, beauty products and also lots of Disney stuff (the latter will soon appear in a haul on my Disney Youtube channel). I have so many outfit posts that I want to share, to show all my recently bought fashion picks, but I'm afraid that's really going to have to wait until I finish internship. So this summer you can expect crazy amounts of cute outfits coming your way! And lots of amazing interior posts, too.. I don't know about you guys, but I. SERIOUSLY. CAN'T. WAIT. (And let's not forget that I'll FINALLY be able to read and comment on your blog posts as well! As for now, I hardly get to read any blogs at all..)
Lastly, I'd like to ask you for some suggestions! I want to buy myself some good inspirational books (also decrative coffee table books!) for after I finish my internship. I have ordered 'Little Black Book', 'The Illustrated World of Chanel' and ' Influence of the Olsen Twins'. I'm also considering 'Lauren Conrad Beauty', 'How to be Parisian' and 'Chanel'. If you have any of these, or if you have any suggestions for other inspirational books — please let me know!!
What's up in your life? What are you REALLY looking forward to in your near future?

Disillusioned newspaper reporter-turned-private detective Ray Dudgeon doesn't want to save the world; he just wants to do an honest job well. But when doing an honest job threatens society's most powerful and corrupt, Ray's odds of survival make for a sucker's bet.A simple bodyguard job for a Hollywood locations manager uncovers a rat's nest of sexual blackmail, murder, and high-level political corruption...and Ray Dudgeon is caught in a war between the FBI, the Chicago police, and the mob. With the line between good and bad blurring, Ray doesn't know who he can trust - or if he can even trust himself.More
Corrupt cops. Menacing mobsters. Shady politicians. Sleazy Hollywood moguls. And as the bodies pile up, one detective manages to stay alive and stay one step ahead of them all: private investigator Ray Dudgeon, a former crusading newspaper reporter transformed into a tough-nosed gumshoe. And except for slight, entertaining detours to Washington, D.C., and a Los Angeles where Raymond Chandler would feel right at home, most of the action in Big City, Bad Blood unfolds on the gritty streets of Chicago.
But you only really get the true flavor of the Windy City when you listen to Joe Barrett perform Sean Chercover's gripping novel. Barrett has one of those world-weary, seen-it-all Chicago voices that adds to the mystery's drama. That probably explains why Barrett has been hired to do brilliant readings of other well-known books, including Saul Bellow's bizarre masterpiece Henderson the Rain King and John Irving's A Prayer for Owen Meany. Barrett has an authoritative, deep voice that gives credibility to every word he reads. We trust Ray Dudgeon because we believe everything Barrett says. And luckily for Ray Dudgeon, most of the other characters trust and believe him, too.
Dudgeon's dogged pursuit of the truth and his samurai-like code of honor help keep him alive as he tries to unravel why someone wants to kill Bob Loniski, a Hollywood locations manager assigned for Continental Pictures' production of Final Revenge in Chicago. At first, the mystery seems simple enough. But anyone who loves detective fiction or movies knows there will be many twists and turns as Dudgeon follows the trail leading him to the answers for his questions.
And like many great novelists, Chercover gets all the little details just right. Some of his descriptions are so spot-on, you could easily mistake the book for being a well-written social critique of American society. But this is no dry academic thesis paper. Chercover fills Big City, Bad Blood with dozens of fascinating minor characters that could be the stars of their own books: the handful of good cops and not-so-bad Mafia men Dudgeon gets a lot of his tips from, the Hollywood starlet Dudgeon befriends, a fast-talking cab driver and a gravedigger everyone needs in their corner. But like a good detective or newspaper reporter, Chercover keeps his focus relentlessly on the main plot line. That's what ultimately gives this hard-boiled thriller its power and keeps you riveted as you listen to Barrett tell this entertaining, expertly crafted tale. Ken Ross

HAWTHORN coach Alastair Clarkson says his side can't afford to hold anything back against great rivals Geelong in their blockbuster clash tomorrow night.
Clarkson said today there was "no greater'' preparation for the finals for the reigning premiers than taking on the Cats at the MCG.
While there is the possibility of another meeting against Geelong in the finals just weeks away, Clarkson said the Hawks could not afford to keep anything up their sleeve.
"We can't afford to be too flippant, we haven't got a great record against the Cats for the last three or four years,'' Clarkson said.
"We are still trying to work out the best way to go about trying to defeat them on a regular basis, we haven't been able to do that for a long period of time.
"We'll just play them and let the other stuff work itself out over time.
"There is no greater preparation for finals than playing the Cats at the MCG.''
The Hawks made four changes for tomorrow night's match, with forward Jarryd Roughead returning to the side from suspension alongside veteran on-baller Brad Sewell, Jonathon Ceglar and Matt Spangher.
Ben McEvoy, Ryan Schoenmakers, Tim O'Brien and Taylor Duryea were dropped.
Clarkson said the Hawks did not want to go in "too tall'' against the Cats.
"It's all pretty tight, it's not so much that ones better than the other it's just that we can't play all our tall players,'' Clarkson said.
"We haven't been in that fortunate position for a long time. Usually we've been too small. It's quite unusual that we've got so many of them available to us.
"We just don't want to go in too tall against Geelong. They area quick side and they can run hard so we just don't want to have many taller players that can't cover the ground as well as some of the smaller guys.
Clarkson was confident Sewell was ready to make an impact after returning the senior through the VFL from a hamstring injury.
"He has come back and got some match fitness through Box Hill so he is raring to go and ready to play,'' Clarkson said.
"All the indications that we have with his training and his workloads over the last little while is he's OK to come in and make a solid contribution for us.''
Meanwhile, Clarkson said the Hawks would "not rush'' the return of Cyril Rioli after scans showed the recovery of his injured hamstring had slowed.
"When we got the re-scan it just hadn't progressed to the level that we thought it could in his rehab,'' Clarkson said.
"So we just had to hold him back a little bit. It's a little bit slower than we anticipated, that's not ideal, we love it to be as quick as possible.
"But we've got to respect the injury. He's an important player, so we need to make sure that he's right when he comes back to return so we won't be rushing him.
"If that means we've just got to be really patient with it then that's what we'll be.''

Algerian PM Says Elections to Be Held As Scheduled
Algerian Prime Minister Ali Benflis said on Wednesday that parliamentary elections would be conducted as scheduled, before next June.
Benflis' remarks put an end to speculations over possible delay until political and security conditions are settled in the troubled Berber tribal area.
In an exclusive interview with Kuwait news agency (Kuna), Benflis, who is heading the main party in the coalition government "the National Liberation Front," said the legislative elections will be conducted on time and the government was currently employing all efforts to guarantee safe conditions for the elections. Some opposition parties, including pro-Berber, are calling for postponing the elections until all conditions are settled there, said the agency.
The Algerian authorities are concerned about the possibility that the Berber tribes will boycott the elections, a matter which will increase their isolation.
Meanwhile, the Algerian Prime Minister also considered the recent wave of violence, during which more than 40 people were killed, as a "disappointment" by extremist groups.
War against violence is a "long process," said Benflis, who stressed that other social factors are related to this matter beside the military solution. Benflis also vowed to continue the campaign against extremist groups. (Albawaba.com)

Luscious Red Velvet Beet Brownies! Made secretly healthy with beets, these brownies are rich, dark and chocolatey. Exactly the way brownies are meant, only healthier and a weight loss friendly recipe! Gluten Free + Low Calorie + Paleo
I told you how much I hate beets. I still hate them, but apparently I need to eat more of them for my liver and kidneys.
Last year I was diagnosed with stage 2 kidney disease which isn't serious, but if it progresses to stage 3 I'll have to see a specialists and probably be given a bunch of pills. I want to avoid that so I'm doing everything I can diet wise to prevent that from happening. Like I need another health issue!
Many things can cause kidney disease. In my case, my doctor suspects it's from taking too many meds for all my conditions throughout the years. Who knows with my goofy body.

Baltimore to Begin Tobacco Stings
Health Department initiative will target business sales to minors; 7,000 retailers sent warnings.
BALTIMORE -- The city Health Department will begin teen sting operations this month in an effort to deter retailers from selling tobacco to those under 18 years old, the city's top health official said.
Underage teen-agers will be sent into restaurants, groceries and convenience stores three to four times a week to try to buy tobacco products. If they are successful, the merchants will receive a $500 fine for selling to minors, according to the Baltimore Sun.
Health Commissioner Peter Beilenson sent letters to 7,000 merchants warning them the teens are coming. The department also hired a former police officer who will issue citations and fines to violators.
"Tobacco use is single largest cause of preventable death in Maryland and the United States," Beilenson said. "We're trying to keep kids from ever taking up the dirty, dangerous habit." He said that if teen-agers don't smoke by the time they're age 19, there is a greater than 90 percent chance they will not smoke the rest of their lives.
The teen-sting effort will cost the city about $50,000 a year, which is paid for with settlement money from the state's tobacco lawsuit.
In Baltimore, the Health Department conducted a dry run recently with the underage teens, who are being recruited and trained by the University of Maryland School of Law. They found that of 25 establishments, they were able to buy tobacco at 13. No citations were given, Beilenson said, because the program had not started, the report said.
As the department tries to catch merchants selling to minors, the enforcers also will be looking for two other violations: selling single cigarettes, which carries a $150 fine, and selling tobacco products that are not behind a counter, which brings a $500 fine.
"We want people to know we are very serious about this," Beilenson said.

"Now very often events are set up for photographers... The weddings are orchestrated about the photographers taking the picture, because if it hasn't been photographed it doesn't really exist."
"[Ross is walking down the aisle at Chandler and Monica's wedding]
Ross: Wow. This is the first time I've walked down the aisle without the possibility of it ending in divorce."
Contributed by: Andy James
"A marriage is supposed to be about the couple, and the wedding represents the marriage. If the woman is doing all the work, it segregates it and makes it like it's her day and not our day."
"You just invite people over for a surprise birthday party, but really it's a surprise wedding. The bride comes in, everyone yells 'surprise,' but she's in a wedding dress. Then somebody in the crowd that nobody's noticed comes up and starts to do the ceremony."

|Creating a database - network security
|Wed, 31 May 2006 15:35:49 GMT
Greetings, I've built a product based on Derby, and I've run into a problem. The product creates and modifies r/w databases, and in distributing the product to people working in very secure network situations I find that even people who are empowered to install software are frequently blocked from running the program, which creates a db on the fly on its first run. Are there any interesting documents or ideas on minimal network permissions needed to create/access/modify Derby databases in a relatively paranoid network context? Thanks, Rick Strong firstname.lastname@example.com

Social Security - How Liable are You?
with Franc Jansen, Head of YPI Management
I came to YPI, and luxury yachting, direct from the world of commercial shipping, an industry highly regulated and acutely disciplined in all aspects of safety, maintenance, budgeting and expenditure. One of the many things that astounded me about luxury yachting was the numerous ways in which crew were being paid – processes that could have opened up the yacht owners and their crew to a raft of actionable legal liability - some of it very serious indeed.
Now, many years later, employment companies are as commonplace in this industry as any other, but true experts on Social Security are few and far between. Ex-Inland Revenue and now one of the yachting industry's first certified trainers for MLC inspectors, John Cook is a regular speaker on the subject of Social Security, chairing panels all over the world. I took the chance to pick his brain and find out a little more about who really is liable today.
Legislation for Social Security has been in place across the EU for mariners, their owners and employers for a long time now, both at a national and international level. Most people in the yacht industry, however, have either not been aware of the legislation or, in some cases, turned a blind eye to it. Not being aware of the legislation or any liability you may have to pay Social Security is not a defence and recent cases have seen authorities levy heavy fines on owners and crew as well as additional demands for payments relating to outstanding contributions going back many years.
In one particular case within the EU, a yacht owner/employer was ordered to pay over 150,000 Euros of back-contributions plus penalties and interest. In another case, a crew member was found to be liable for the payment of over 18,000 Euros in un-declared employee liability plus penalties and interest.
How do these liabilities arise?
In the case of the owner/employer, the company that owned the yacht was unaware that the legislation applied to them and had stated in the contract of employment that the crew were responsible for their own tax and Social Security contributions. What they did not know was that all the crew had a connection to the Flag State either by nationality or residence - that in itself set up a "primary" liability. The owning company/employer was based in an EU country covered by EU legislation and paying the wages from the same country, which in turn resulted in them having a "secondary" liability.
The result: the owner/employer was ordered to pay to the local authority both the employee and employer social security contributions for the two years they had owned the yacht and employed the crew.
One case involved a crew member who had worked on a yacht and was resident in the same country. The crew member fell ill and used the E101 at a hospital in another EU country which recorded all the details and reported them back to the authorities in the crew member's country of residence. The local authorities researched the situation in more depth and found the crew member had been working on the yacht for four years and demanded payment.
The Regulations
The regulations are fairly straightforward at first glance, however, they are complex in their application. There are many permutations to consider when establishing whether or not an owner/employer or crew member has any liability for paying Social Security including the existence of any bi-lateral, multi-lateral or reciprocal agreements between countries.
Looking to the future, the MLC 2006, which devotes a whole section to Social Security, is the next big weapon in the hands of Social Security offices worldwide. When the convention comes into force, owners/employers and crew members alike will need to identify any liabilities they may have and take the appropriate action.
For more information on Social Security liabilities or any other aspect of crew management or yacht liabilities, please contact Franc Jansen at YPI Management on +377 99 99 97 97 or email: firstname.lastname@example.com

Rhythm PoetryResult under "Re-mobiling"
Rhythms are essential parts of our lives. We use rhythms when we walk, talk, eat, breathe and play with friends. is mobile application (Android) notates the rhythm you create by tapping, singing, talking or drumming. The words create a poetic notation mirroring the rhythm you proposed. You may write several layers by tapping different rhythms. You may erase by tapping and you may playback the rhythm or the spoken words that you tapped. This is a first step in our exploration of using rhythm as an interactive material to traverse the boundary that we normally call body.

UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN River Falls
The mission of the Office of Human Resources is to support the University of Wisconsin-River Falls as a comprehensive university. Our goal is to assist staff as we support the mission of the university to help prepare students to be productive, creative, ethical, engaged citizens and leaders with an informed global perspective. We will effectively and creatively administer all functions of human resources. We are committed to providing effective and ethical service to current and prospective employees by attracting, developing and retaining a respectful and diverse work force.
The University of Wisconsin (UW) is embarking on a complete redesign of its current classification and compensation structure. The new personnel authority UW System and UW-Madison received as of July 1, 2015 provides an unprecedented opportunity to review and modify our classification/compensation systems, and also review our employee benefits programs. Our goal will be to develop new systems that will enable our institutions to continue to attract and retain the best talent.
On February 17, 2017, Mercer consulting was selected as the vendor and consulting partner for the Title and Total Compensation Study. Mercer is a global leader in consulting on high quality workforce solutions that strengthen the organization's ability to attract, develop, retain and engage the best and brightest talent. Their vast experience with higher educational institutions and systems combined with their expertise in titling and compensation strategies in academic and research environments is critical as we move forward.
The focus of this Study is to modernize the job title and total compensation structure, implement guidelines for compensation administration; and develop competitive work-life benefit programs that reflect the contemporary workplace.
This study will cover three areas:
How long will the TTC Study take? The projected timeline for the Study is 24 months, starting from February 2017.
can I find information on the TTC Study?
More information is available on the University of Wisconsin System and UW-River Falls websites.
What are the phases of the TTC Study?
can employees provide feedback and ask questions on the Study?
UW System will have Subject Matter Workgroups and Institution TTC Project Teams. We are forming our UWRF Project Team and additional members will be added as the study progresses.

IE is frequently(every few minutes) but briefly(3-4 seconds) maxing out the CPU while sitting a Spiceworks dashboard or inventory pages. Mem usage is about 300MB.
When connecting to the existing 5.3.75925 server I see an initial CPU spike when connecting, but no other spikes. Mem usage is under 100MB.

Chrome or Firefox work better and faster with spiceworks
Could be the community side bar reloads causing this, can you spot any page rewrites at the CPU spike time?
Apr 11, 2012 at 10:17 UTC
I run Chrome on my work PCs just for SW, but I'm not always at my PC, the rest of the fleet only has IE.
People do use IE, and there has been a deterioration.But so far I've not seen a link to why, and I likely won't be able to look in any more dept in the near future.
Chrome or Firefox may have similar degradation, but I've not have a chance to test.
Apr 11, 2012 at 11:02 UTC
1st Post
I had a user with this same issue on IE8/XP. It turned out to be flash-heavy webpages maxing out the CPU. I would check to make sure you have the latest version installed since Spiceworks uses it on the dashboard page.
Apr 11, 2012 at 11:48 UTC
While flash version could be an issue, I have not checked it.
I'm unclear on why that would only be an issue connecting to the new server not the old server. At this point I'm trying to highlight changes between the versions.
Apr 11, 2012 at 4:27 UTC
Tim do you have the same plugins & the same dashboard layout / widgets on your test server that you do on your production server? It may be that one of these is causing a problem [esp. flash based ones] but is not on your production page.
Also is it just when looking at the dashboard page, or when looking on other pages as well? Can you try leaving it just on the helpdesk page, or on a new dashboard page that is empty?
Apr 11, 2012 at 5:14 UTC
On the production version I have several plug in and have customized the dash board.
On the test database it's all defaults, with no tickets and 330 devices.
It's typically been stilling on the devices tab.
Apr 16, 2012 at 9:42 UTC
The EMC Storage Advisor now uses FusionCharts instead of Google Visualizations. If you have a lot of these widgets piled on your dashboard that may be part of the reason.
IE in general is very slow and CPU intensive when executing flash. I would go as far to say the same thing about their javascript performance. Spiceworks uses a large amount of javascript to keep the user experience interactive. Chrome is the clear winner when it comes to Javascript performance and will lead to a greatly enhanced user experience both in speed and visual appeal.
Apr 16, 2012 at 11:20 UTC
Sorry my mistake, I seem to be confused on why we have betas. I thought I was here to point out things that were better, worse, or buggy.
Old version of Spice is fine, new version of Spice sucks, but since I use a supported but not recommended browser on occasion I'll just keep getting more and more people telling me I'm just stupid for using IE and I should know not to use it.
p.s. The EMC Storage Advisor is not loaded by default on the Dashboard.
p.p.s. thanks for giving me a link showing IE best or matches Chrome in a few areas, it dulled the pain.
Sarcasm aside I do understand my experience is better with Chome, and that no one is implying I'm stupid. . I use Chrome 80-90% of the time I use Spice (treat it like an app). But using IE now sucks more. I'm OK with saying we are OK with that, or it's a known issue.
Apr 16, 2012 at 11:20 UTC
I had a user with this same issue on IE8/XP. It turned out to be flash-heavy webpages maxing out the CPU. I would check to make sure you have the latest version installed since Spiceworks uses it on the dashboard page.
Flash version is 126.96.36.199 on the one box, did not have a chance to check the others. .
Apr 16, 2012 at 5:57 UTC
Hey Tim,
Thanks for reporting what you're seeing here.
I tried this out to see if I could replicate what you're seeing. I scanned in a single subnet to populate the Inventory and Dashboard widgets with some content.
I see about the same performance with these specs:
- Firefox 11 / Flash for FF 10.3.183.7
- IE8 / Flash for IE 126.96.36.199
on XP SP3, Spiceworks 6.0.00415 (beta 1). The Spiceworks installation and browsers are all running in the same VM.
When I'm sitting on the Dashboard both browsers are at 0%, and when I interact with some of the widgets (without clicking) the browser usage can peak out in both browsers as high as 95+%.
The same is true in the Inventory, with Firefox being only marginally better (more efficient) while interacting with the Inventory tiles.
Is that what you're seeing?
Apr 18, 2012 at 6:13 UTC
Still waiting to get access to a system I can test with when other apps are closed.
When I was testing in most cases the XP/IE PC was remotely accessing another PC with Spice running. PC hosting Spice Beta is also an XP PC.

Maybe some of the elected officials asking, now "Vice President," John Kerry how he and Obama will go about punishing Assad for killing children, will think to ask Kerry how that two year old, unilateral, US military venture into Africa has panned out.
In case you have deliberately not heard it from the Obamamedia, the US has had troops in the Central African Republic and Uganda for just about two years.
US boots on the ground chasing some half-assed murderer named Joseph Kony – with no plan, success, or hope of an end to the action.
This was an Obama military venture to "save the children" much like Waco Texas was under President Hillary and Bill.
So much for quick and surgical.
There are even less Kony followers in the Central African Republic than David Koresh had.
And here we go, year number two, come October, and our soldiers are still wandering around looking for a ghost in the jungle.
How come no press?
Luckily, I read the South African papers so I can find out what Obama is up to with our military.
It looks like a news media secret here in the states to me, but then most Obama failures do.
We simply live them, not hear about them.
On to Syria for whatever!
There's a battle cry for ya.

The Impact of Globalisation with Rigid Labour Markets
This dissertation examines the impact of globalisation when labour markets are imperfect. Chapters 2 and 3 start with an overview about recent trends in globalisation and provide evidence for labour market rigidity in developed countries. Chapter 4 studies minimum wages in a simple factor allocation model and derives basic results that are generalised in a Heckscher-Ohlin model in chapter 5. Chapter 6 analyses wage rigidity in a specific factors model. Finally, imperfect labour markets are implemented in a new economic geography framework to show that unemployment fosters agglomeration of economic activity. The main message is that labour market rigidity causes welfare losses from trade in a number of theoretical models. It is argued that wage subsidies can help to overcome both the inefficiency and the distribution problem.

He could have been talking about every stop of his jam-packed, eight-day, six-country overseas trip.
In London, Mr. Obama joined other world leaders in trying to tackle the spiraling global economic crisis. In France, he sought help from NATO allies in dealing with the deteriorating war in Afghanistan. In the Czech Republic, Mr. Obama pledged to end the threat of nuclear weapons. In Turkey, he sought to start repairing America's dismal standing in the Muslim world. And in Iraq, he pushed for Iraqis to "take responsibility for their own country."
The pile of problems on Mr. Obama's desk was high before he left, and remains so now that he is back.
The president returned to Washington in the early hours of Wednesday morning, bringing his lengthy debut on the world stage - including his first stop in a war zone as commander in chief - to a close.
Aides said he brought home achievements both large and small, evidence, they said, of the benefits of the extended travel that turned attention away from all the pressing matters at home for the first time in his less-than-three-month-old presidency.
"It's tangible and intangible," White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel said of the trip's value.
For a nation gripped with worry about its economic future, among the concrete things Mr. Obama achieved was an agreement out of the Group of 20 summit in London. The wealthy and developing nations promised to get a handle on risky financial transactions, to act to further stimulate their economies if growth doesn't improve, and to help poorer nations feeling more effects from the global financial meltdown than they can mitigate on their own.
Mr. Obama didn't get European nations to step up with the kind of immediate stimulus spending that might quickly jump-start their economies and in turn boost America's, but he billed the meetings as a success nonetheless.
Emanuel also cited the commitments from NATO allies "to do their part" in Afghanistan, even though nations agreed only to make modest new contributions to short-term security and training efforts, and not to join the heavy fighting in the volatile south and east of the country. Mr. Obama also made some strides toward addressing the international nuclear threat by launching talks with Russia toward a new arms-control pact.
There was a less quantifiable side of the ledger, as well.
Between Mr. Obama's outreach to local students at town halls in France and Turkey, as well as speeches and well over a dozen private meetings with individual foreign leaders, aides felt the president established a new-sheriff-in-town vibe.
"Yesterday during a town hall meeting with Turkish students, the president kind of made fun of the American media," noted CBS News White House correspondent Chip Reid. "He said, 'Some of my reporter friends from the States were asking, How come you didn't solve everything on this trip?'"
"Well, you know, it's only been a week!" Mr. Obama said. "These things take time and the idea is that you lay the groundwork and slowly, over time, if you make small efforts, they can add up into big efforts. And that's, I think, the approach that we want to take in promoting more peace and prosperity around the world."
|Map: Obama's Overseas Trip
A day-by-day guide to one of the most closely watched presidential trips in recent memory.
Mr. Obama said over and over that he was in Europe to listen, not dictate. The subtext was that his leadership would be a sharp U-turn from that of President George W. Bush, and that he hoped putting a new stamp on U.S. foreign policy would pay dividends from more cooperative allies.
The two-day stay in Turkey, a Muslim-majority nation that straddles Europe and Asia, was a key part of that strategy. Mr. Obama hoped to refresh relations with a Muslim-world partner with whom relations became strained over the Iraq war.
"America is back," was how Emanuel put it.
There's no doubting that Mr. Obama was well-received.
The question is whether the world's problems will get any better as a result, and the answer won't be known for a while. Diplomacy is a slow process and so is changing the policy of any one nation, much less several - "moving the ship of state," as Mr. Obama likes to put it.
Also unclear: where the line will fall with the fickle American public, between excitement at having a leader who makes a big splash overseas and annoyance that that same leader is lavishing attention on the pet priorities of other parts of the world.
The previously unannounced Iraq trip was confined to the main U.S. military base there, Camp Victory. Attention from the new commander in chief proved a huge morale booster, judging from the wildly cheering audience that greeted the president at a former palace of the late Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein.
The president's official schedule had said he would be flying directly to Washington D.C. from Istanbul on Tuesday and made no mention of an Iraq visit. Reporters did sense that an unannounced trip was a strong possibility, however, as CBS News Producer Robert Hendin points out in a behind-the-scenes dispatch.
Although violence is down overall in Iraq from its peak, it has surged lately with a string of deadly bombings, including one in Baghdad just hours before Mr. Obama's arrival. The White House scrapped plans for the president to helicopter into Baghdad's heavily fortified Green Zone to see Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki and other leaders, citing not security fears but a sand and dust storm that reduced visibility. Instead, the leaders traveled to see him at Camp Victory.
"They were all but crawling all over each other afterwards to touch him, to shake his hand, to get a picture, to get an autograph. It was an amazing reception," Reid said.
Mr. Obama met with Gen. Ray Odierno, who briefed him on the recent violence and security challenges in Iraq. Reid reports that the president was told, despite a recent rash of bombings, security incidents are now at their lowest level since the war began.
"They still believe they have a handle on things," Reid said, "although certainly it is something that they're concerned about. They hope that this is just a one-time thing, not an indication of a steady up-tick to come. General Odierno seemed to be positive that they're on track to get the troops out on the timetable the president has laid out."
Mr. Obama had a message for Americans, too. With over 4,260 lives lost and $600 billion spent, he paid heartfelt tribute to the "enormous sacrifice" made by the U.S. in Iraq.
"It is time for us to transition to the Iraqis," he said, earning the loudest applause line of his five-minute address to troops. "They need to take responsibility for their country."
"We assured the president that all the progress that was made in the security area will continue," al-Maliki said at Mr. Obama's side.
The president projected confidence in that. "We should not get distracted" by the violence, he said, arguing that "our shared commitment is greater than the obstacles."
Such an optimistic note could have come at any other point in his travels.

At the WW2 the Steyr 1500 A was a quite common vehicle at the german Wehrmacht. The large clearance, a wading depth of 70 cm and the air-cooling made the Steyr ideal for cross-country purposes. The Steyr 1500 A/01 with internal spare wheel was manufactured from September 1941 to around August 1942. Around August 1942, the superstructure was changed. The spare wheel was moved outside of the car body. This model was manufactured until March 1944. Steyr produced over 12400 vehicles until March 1944. After bombing the factory the production ended.
So far the view back in history :-)
After some months ob absence from modelling I picked up another quarterscale kit for my re-entry.
All along one of my favourite kits was doubtless the Tamiya Kit of the german Steyr 1500 car. The Kit (No.32549) looks brilliant, a typical Tamiya kit – easy to build with an excellent fit overall.
Together with some aftermarket stuff it is possible to build a very realistic quarterscale model of this widely used german car. As you can see I used the BlackDog item T48053, some ABER and Hauler PE-Parts. Btw, the ABER Set 48045 is one of the most finest and extensive PE-Sets I ever saw. The parts are so tiny that ABER gives you two identical frames in case you should never find again lost parts on your carpet :-) I must confessed I was not able to use all of the tiny PE-Parts. If there is somebody out there who can make it – I wish I had his eyes, fingers, tools and patience.
The assembling proceeded without any problems, only the BlackDog accessories set needs some sanding for perfect fit.
What else as a worn winter white camouflage could be a possibility at these days? The almighty hairspraymethod as well was my choice. After spraying different grey tones the whole model was sprayed with hairspray. After some minutes drying I sprayed water diluted Tamiya XF-2 white. Then I was going smoke a cigarette and drunk a cup of coffee, returned back after 30 min and started removing the white colour with an old brush.
Some weathering, mainly with Vallejo-Paints was done for more change of the even looking white colour. Note I do not a heavy weathering with chips or streaks. Only some mud effects were applied.
Enough of boring storys – in fact there were no new or unknown techniques I used. I invite you to simplify matters looking the pics and have fun (or not).
Anyway, I plan a simple vignette with using a great painted figure by my friend Xavi Ruiz Xavi has now his own blog ----> http://betulomodels.blogspot.com/
Asap I will show you the whole scene.
See you later!

The Member of Parliament for Fareham, Suella Fernandes, visited Saab Seaeye, the world's largest electric underwater robotic systems manufacturer.
During her tour of the facilities at Fareham with Saab Seaeye's managing director, Jon Robertson, the MP met the staff and saw advanced underwater robotic systems with exceptional technological capabilities including an ability to descend three miles deep under the ocean, manoeuvre precisely in strong currents and grasp things using enormous strength or fingertip delicacy.
Speaking to technicians and apprentices on her tour, Ms Fernandes saw many examples of the way the company's high standards of technological excellence and customer service have secured its lead position in the market and built a world-renown reputation for trusted technology and support.
Along with viewing the range of robotic systems and engineering processes, the MP discovered how they are widely used across different markets, including oil and gas, marine science, defence forces, hydro engineering and aquaculture. She heard about the variety of tasks undertaken, ranging from gathering seabed samples to swimming down deep tunnels and rescuing submariners.
Ms Fernandes said how very impressed she was with everything she had seen and with the high level of professionalism shown by everyone she met, saying: "Saab Seaeye is a large and valuable part of the local economy and we are pleased that such an important leader in the field of underwater robotics is based here in Fareham."
Ms Fernandes was particularly interested in talking to several apprentices and seeing their projects, saying how pleased she was to witness Saab Seaeye's investment in apprenticeships and to meet the engineers of the future.
Jon Robertson explains that the company is continuously investing in people skills and technology for the future: "Having led the market for the last 30 years with innovations that have changed the industry we remain at the cutting edge in our field as we see ever more growth opportunities in existing and new markets for our pioneering underwater technology."

What Every Caregiver Should Know about Alzheimer's Disease
Blair House Senior Living offers advice on managing Alzheimer's and dementia
MACON, GA. (May 16, 2012) - Blair House Senior Living, an assisted living facility with a state-of-the-
"Dementia is one of the world's fastest growing diseases, with 24 million people currently diagnosed and that number expected to jump to 84 million by 2040," says Jean Govoni, executive director of Blair House Senior Living. "Dementia is growing so quickly and we believe it's important to do our part to provide community caregivers with guidance on how to best care for their loved ones with dementia or Alzheimer's. It's a devastating and widely misunderstood disease, and that makes it all that much more important to provide community members with an opportunity to truly understand what their loved one is experiencing."
According to Dr. Lorne S. Label from the Brain Longevity Center, about 13 percent of Americans over the age of 65 have Alzheimer's and half of those over the age of 85 will develop Alzheimer's or dementia as they continue to age.
"It's easy for family members and other caregivers to become frustrated at the increased level of care needed for loved ones with dementia," says Govoni. "With a better understanding of the disease itself, caregivers are more prepared to deal with the emotional, financial and physical stress that they and their loved ones are experiencing."
Caregivers of individuals with Alzheimer's and dementia in need of assistance can contact Blair House Senior Living for additional information. Blair House Senior Living will also host an interactive event called "What Every Caregiver Should Know about Alzheimer's Disease and Dementia" on May 16, 2012 at 6 p.m. at 684 Arlington Place Macon, Ga. 31201.

Most odd :-) But I had another question... I have some concerns about the APR_XTHREAD files (those opened for overlapped I/O) behaving correctly when we start to use those in normal operation - had you verified that these are actually going to apr_sendfile, or do you have intervening read/transforms going on due to mod_includes or other scripts? Note, too, that TransmitFile has several interesting options in re the 'mode' of transmission (kernel v.s. apc's etc). It might be very interesting to try flipping those options and see which actually affect performance in the rather clean environment you have already configured. Of course, you could try 256K, 1M etc as the split-size and see if the transmission speed converges twords 6M. Bill

BMW Spark Plug Wire Set (Cylinders 7-12) - Genuine BMW 12121718606

Ships today [ info ]
Spark Plug Wire Set (Cylinders 7-12) by Genuine BMW
About Spark Plug Wire Sets
The ignition system in your engine bay handles electrical loads of thousands of volts to get a clean spark to your spark plugs. The distributor receives the electrical current from the ignition coil and distributes it to the spark plug wires, which carry the current to the plugs. A spark plug wire set is an important component to the running condition of your car. As it ages, the ability to transfer electricity goes down, causing poor performance. This manifests itself as hesitation, rich fuel mixture, poor fuel economy, and occasionally misfires. It's smart to replace the distributor cap, rotor, spark plugs, and spark plug wire set all at the same time for the most effective ignition system service.

Kuni Tarochi was a Kuni Shugenja of the Crab Clan who studied under the guidance of his sensei Kuni Okabu. Tarochi foolishly moved without permission into the shadowlands to kill a minion of Fu Leng by his own, to prove his worth. He cast a jade spell to a wandering ogre, which harmed the beast, but did not stop it immediately. When the ogre had the upper body of the student inside its mouth, the spell began to take its toll, killing the ogre. Okabu found them and extracted his student from the jade ogre's mouth, tended Tarochi, and carried him back to safety. [1]

Comparison of Geopolitical Significance of Post Cold War Rounds of Enlargement of NATO

In the Post-Cold War era, NATO enlargements occurred in two rounds. Ten new member states joined NATO. These enlargements represent a major asset to the building of new security architecture of the Post-Cold War Europe, after the dissolution of Warsaw Treaty and the USSR. Two rounds of NATO enlargement were very different by their territorial reach, regional determination, current circumstances inside the Alliance and the influence on geopolitical relations in Europe and the US-Russia geostrategic relations. NATO enlargements were precursory to the EU enlargements on ten post-communist European states. After the September 11, successful implementation of the second round of NATO enlargement became one of the strategic objectives in struggle against terrorism, led by the USA and its allies. The enlargement significantly changed relations within NATO as well as the very geopolitical balance in Europe. The security and stability zone expanded to the East and Southeast of Europe. NATO's influence has also spread over the border regions of Europe, even transcending those borders. Third round of NATO enlargement was announced at the NATO summit in Bucharest during which Croatia and Albania were invited to join the Alliance. The third round of NATO enlargement will probably refer to Macedonia, if it settles a dispute over its name with Greece. Given that NATO is to include the Western Balkans states, its role of a stabilization force will become even more important in this unstable area, particularly under the aspect problem of solutions to the problems connected with the independence of Kosovo and its consequences to the stability of the region. Future strategic challenges to the European security will be tied to the NATO-Russia relations, regarding the NATO's future ambitions in the Eastern Europe and Caucasus region. If NATO decides to invite Georgia and Ukraine to become its members, we can expect Russian reaction, which could lead to the period of whole scale and long-term instability in a large part of Europe, but also in a part of Eurasia.

Rayman 2: The Great Escape
Review by DarthMarth
"A true classic; one of the best PC games ever."
Although I usually start my reviews with a sum-up of how I got the game, I've had Rayman 2: The Great Escape for so long I don't remember a thing. The fact that I still play this game testifies to its greatness. (As well as the fact that I haven't been able to play it for several years due to mysterious technical glitches) Rayman 2 is a truly classic game, with colorful, incredibly fun levels and great gameplay.
Graphics: 10/10
Rayman 2's 3-D graphics were no less than stunning back when the game was new, and even now (that is, 2005), they aren't that bad. Each levels (and the characters) is brilliantly, colorfully animated, with great textures, lighting, and polygons. Although the levels aren't realistic at all, their fantasy nature and color helps you enjoy being in Rayman's world.
Sound: 10/10
The game's sound effects are great; Rayman makes many different noises for all his actions, and all the enemies and environments make different sounds as well. The game has plenty of dialogue in cutscenes; the characters speak some kind of gibberish with English subtitles. Each character has a different and cool-sounding "voice," from the whisper of Murfy (a flying encyclopedia who gives you hints throughout the game) to the mystical-sounding echoes of Li (a mysterious fairy who gives Rayman various powers as you collect Silver Lums; more on that later). The game's music is superb; each level has several distinctive tunes of its own, so it's hard to get bored of them.
Story: 8/10
Rayman 2's story is slightly unoriginal, but having a new storyline is next to impossible these days, anyway. Basically, robot pirates led by the sinister Admiral Razorbeard have invaded the whimsical world of Rayman, imprisoning everyone and coming close to world domination. As the game starts, the limbless hero Rayman, lying in a jail cell on the pirate flagship, finds that his best friend Globox the frog, has become his new cellmate. It turns out Globox smuggled a Silver Lum in his mouth, allowing Rayman to shoot energy from his fist again. He uses this new power to escape, but on the way, he and Globox are separated. The game starts as he plummets through the atmosphere to earth, intent on freeing everyone from the pirates. He later learns that to save the world, he must collect 4 magical masks to awaken the powerful guardian of the world, Polokus.
Gameplay: 10/10
As usual, this is where Rayman 2 really shines. The game is a mix of the action and platformer genres; Rayman runs, jumps, and floats with his unique hair through the game's beautiful levels. He can trigger things or defeat enemies by shooting energy from his fist. This attack receives a few upgrades as you progress through the game. These upgrades come in the form of Silver Lums, powerful balls of energy given mainly by Li. They are just one of the many power-ups you'll find; your main objective is to collect pieces of the primordial energy core, Yellow Lums, and break cages to free captives of the pirates. Rayman can collect and find several other colors of Lums which do things like replenish his life or serve as save stations. (The game can only be saved permanently in the Hall of Doors, a hub between the different levels)
The game's controls are fairly good, assuming you play with a game pad/joystick. (Which unfortunately, isn't an option for me now) The controls for Rayman are simple and easy to use, though it can be a real challenge to control him with the keyboard. Assuming you have a joystick, the game is also not too difficult. (Although I never did beat the final boss)
The gameplay is Rayman 2 is fairly simple, but this only helps it to work even more. There are many puzzles and other challenges in the game, guaranteed to keep you busy for a while.
Replay: 8/10
Despite the game's incredibly great levels, you probably won't want to play the game through a second time after beating it. (Unless you wait a few years, like I did; it seems completely new after this) However, the game has a great deal of levels with lots of Yellow Lums and Creates to collect, so beating the game the first time will likely take wuite a while. It's guaranteed to keep you occupied for a long, long time.
Rent/Buy: BUYBUYBUYBUYBUY!
For one thing, computer games can't be rented. For another thing, these is no reason not to buy this classic! (If you can still find it, that it) Buy it now!

As a Tableau Community of Practice (CoP) leader within your organisation you have probably experienced a number of challenges getting the power and value of Tableau into the hands of those who need it most. Your journey is shared by leaders within other Australian organisations on the visual analytics journey. We have had a number of suggestions from people such as yourself to help bring together a forum for you to exchange ideas with your peers and to learn from each other.
Tableau Conference in Melbourne provides a great opportunity to kick off the CoP Leadership community and to bring together like minded people such as yourself. Attendance is by invitation only and has been strictly targeted towards CoP leaders. We envisage following up the inaugural meeting with quarterly get together in NSW and VIC.
The CoP group is not a replacement for the Tableau User Group, nor a forum for raising technical issues. It is a forum for sharing and learning best practices in all aspects of the Visual Analytics journey (including but not limited to:
- Organising a Community of Practice within my organisation
- Visual Analytics deployment methodologies
- Tableau expertise on boarding for new users
- Managing organisational lethargy and IT policies
- Data provisioning
- Growing need for easy access to data
- Finding business opportunities by analysing copious amounts of data
We hope you can join us.

A bit after my 16th birthday I started having these ridiculous flashbacks. Like when I am cleaning potatoes or just sitting in a certain way. I'd get aroudnd 20 flashbacks a day, of course that isn't normal and it bothered me a lot, since my mind was in constant confusion. I also noticed that recently I have been getting these weird 1-2 second visions. Like today, I was riding on my bike to school and out of nowhere I saw a big baby pink/yellow room in front of me with nothing in it. I almost fell off my bike, I had lost my concentration. I don't know how to explain it but can you imagine your mind disconnecting with this world and seeing a new place. My parents also noticed that lately I'm always tired and want to sleep, I was such an energetic girl when I was younger. Now all I want is to sleep, sleep and sleep. I also have like these series-dreams. Like they continue where I left of the day before. Since I was little, I could always describe my dream in details when I woke up. And even weeks after that. It's as if I'm there, I feel everything in my dream. I can't tell the difference between dreams and reality. When I was around 12 ( I don't remember correctly) I woke up with a red scraped bleading nose. When I was sixteen I felt tingly in whole my body. My mom even noticed, she was like "Wow your eyes look all sparkly" and my body was like really warm from the inside. One day I woke up with my hair was wet. And today I woke up with little scars on my left cheek. And weirdest of all is that I ALWAYS see this boy in my dreams, never see his face and don't know how old he is, but he is always in every dream, sometimes just sitting in a corner behind this old castle. But it's a positive vibe that I get from him. I somehow feel like we are connected somehow, don't know it's this inner feeling. I always catch few images, and I searched it up.. and all of them are almost in Ireland. When I trun 18 this year, I want to go there and see if it gets worse or better. Maybe I have to be there I don't know. I'm not crazy! I know it doesn't sound pretty convincing to you, but I swear it's not less weirder for me. Does anyone know what this might mean, or what I'm going through. My mind is always wandering to that place.
Most Helpful Girl
I feel like I'm almost in the same situation as you, difference is, I cannot remember what the dream is about. I'd forget it the moment I'm awake. I won't get flashbacks, but a few times I have had visions. The series dream is the worse part. I can't even recall any of the details once I woke up. How did you search it up? I have a feeling that it has something to do with that place in your dream. Gosh I feel like I'm going crazy sometimes. I'm tired and I want to sleep, but I'm afraid of the dreams I'd get, sometimes I'd get nightmare. But if I woke up and continue sleeping back, its like I'm reconnected to it back again. Am I crazy or what.00|00|0
I'm sorry, it must suck! Oh but I'm really glad now I can talk to someone about this stuff. And it's really lame but I searched 'castle green' on google haha and searched through the pictures, found it and clicked on it to see the name and then I searched the name on Wikipedia and other sites :)
You too huh? Do you also get tired in daytime? What are your dreams about?
- Show AllShow Less
Hmm, well it may sound stupid, but could it be that you're staying up late and mayby that's why you feel tired the next day? Sure! I'll send you a pm
I've tried sleeping early and woke up in the afternoon the next day. Still sleepy and tired

Sweden's most visited restaurant
The first McDonald's restaurant in Sweden opened its doors in Stockholm, 1973. There were few then who believed that the concept would be successful, but today, no one can doubt their success. McDonald's has nearly 16,000 employees who are directly or indirectly employed throughout the company within Sweden's approximate 220 restaurants. These restaurants serve 435,000 guests daily. Although McDonald's has grown to become Sweden's largest restaurant, the need for recruitment solutions is continuously expanding. 40,000 applications are handled each year by the organization from which 3,000 new jobs are created.
"The bulk of our employees work in one of our restaurants, and in the past the most common application was done over the counter. Eventually, however, we reached a point where we needed a better solution to facilitate the administrative tasks and make the work with our recruitment more efficient."
Click here to read about how ReachMee streamlines the recruitment process to fit your needs.
Simple and neat with ReachMee
Even though many applications are done in the restaurant, McDonald's still actively works towards getting more visits to their website and into their well integrated application form. The difference between applying directly in a restaurant and on the website form must be as minimal as possible, but while also ensuring that McDonald's is receiving all of the important information from the candidate.
"There is a huge need for simplicity in order for everything to work well, for both the candidate and for those administrating the recruitments. ReachMee's form is well integrated into our website and gives the candidate an enjoyable experience– both visually and efficiently."
Development and flexibility
There is a constant need at McDonald's for simple and fast solutions in order to recruit the right people. It requires flexible and developable tools that can be adjusted and customized. The dialogue between GlobeSoft and McDonald's has therefore always been very open, and ReachMee's recruitment tool has been adjusted to meet the new needs that have developed. Extended security and a more integrated design are two examples of adjustments which have been done.
"We are a portion of an extremely well-known, multinational company. It is important that what we do helps build and tend to our brand. Since we have been able to adjust ReachMee's tools based on our needs, we can be sure that the tools have helped contribute to this."
