as a former employee, I just want to inform the people of what goes on at o waters. lets start with the warehouse, they have illegal aliens working long hours and are very underpaid and they are treated like well u know what. They have this we are family motto going on and it just makes me sick to my stomach. Its we are family as long as your kissing *ss because if you are not they will drop you.
I worked there a little over two years and not once did i kiss anyones *ss and i know thats why they would give me a hard time. I was a driver and I busted my *ss for them. I often thought to myself, Why do i put up with this crap. but it was simple pay was good. Thats the only thing good about the company the pay. As for the sales guys, all the crap they feed the customer comes directly from frank and steve. Thats why they keep lying to this day. So im telling you if anyone wants to sign up do not sign up with the waterclub plan because they forget to tell you that its a 3 year agreement.
Your best bet is the all you can drink plan. You can actually get out of that contract whenever you want. This new challenge they have going on about if your water is purer than theirs u get 6 free months is crap because its a win win stuation for them. After the 6 months you have to stay on as a customer. I think it be fair if it was a no obligation 6 free months deal. Besides if your water is better than theirs why would u want to consume their water anyway. Im telling you they are idiots. Sales guys tend to focus on people that dont speak english because they get tricked into signing up for the 3 yr plan.
As a former driver there there wasnt one day that i didnt get a complaint from a spanish speaking person about the sales guys and the company. I speak spanish myself so i would tell them the truth about what goes on. I worked there but i never went out and told people what company I worked for there was no need i was never proud of working there i just figured id get paid u know. As for customer service there is one person there named melissa masoinet shes the head cust service rep there. She is a total b*tch. I know alot of you people know who im talking about. A lot of the drivers feel the same way I do they just wont say anything there was a time that we were going to strike A letter by a certain driver was written to frank and steve and their errand boy robin parke about our dislikes of the company and only then did they change some things.
They laughed the letter off at the time but soon after the changes came. They werent big changes but at least it made our job a little more enjoyable at the time. Ill stop for the moment but I have alot more where that came from. and before u think im just another disgruntled former employee i am not its just time the people knew what o premium waters is all about as if you didnt know already. have a great day!
u know who i am o waters phoenix, Arizona

OPW's most sincere olive branch seems to be elimination of lengthy contracts, allowing their service and product to speak for itself when it comes time to renew each month.
Remember, if a company insists you contract on *THEIR* time schedule, they know you aren't going to be happy for very long.

Farrell confident 'pen can adapt to Santos' loss
Farrell confident 'pen can adapt to Santos' loss
"In the current situation, I don't think it has changed things drastically by any means," Farrell said about Santos' DL stint. "[Casey] Janssen finished the year as our eighth-inning guy last year and it slides [Francisco] Cordero back into the closing spot. You never like to lose your closer, but, at the same time, we feel we have guys who have experience in the roles they're currently in.
"I don't think its created an upheaval by any means, even though it's disappointing to lose a quality arm in Sergio."
Janssen was Toronto's eighth-inning man last season and Cordero closed for much of his career -- including 2011 when he notched 37 saves with the Reds -- before signing with the Blue Jays in the offseason.
Farrell stressed that while Santos' loss is a blow to the club, there are many veteran arms capable of taking on a different and bigger role and they are eager to prove as much, especially Cordero.
"The one thing Cordero has been clear with is that he wants the ball every day," Farrell said. "To have that kind of experience of not only closing games out, but the frequency of use, we're fortunate in that regard.
"All guys are different and respond differently, but Cordero is a guy that can pitch frequent days consecutively."
Entering Sunday's contest against the Mariners, Cordero had converted on two of three save opportunities and appeared in nine games, which was as much as any reliever on the team. He also has the second-most active saves in the Majors with 329, trailing only Mariano Rivera.

Analog Devices boosts sales, profits, outlook
Post a comment
NORWOOD, Mass. -- Analog Devices Inc. announced Thursday (August 14, 2003) a net income of $79 million on revenues of $520.4 million in the company's third quarter of its fiscal year, which ended August 2. The income was up from $71 million in the previous quarter.
Revenues increased 17 percent from the third quarter of fiscal 2002 and 4 percent from the second quarter of fiscal 2003. After enjoying revenue growth in all geographic regions in the third fiscal quarter the company is predicting revenue growth of 3 percent to 5 percent for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003.
"Revenue grew quarter-to-quarter across a broad base of applications within the computer, communications, consumer, and industrial markets we serve," said Jerald Fishman, Analog Devices' president and chief executive officer, in a statement. As a result cash and short-term investment balances increased by $128 million after spending approximately $20 million on capital equipment. Cash and short-term investment balances at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2003 totaled $3.2 billion, the company stated. "The book-to-bill ratio was approximately one for the third quarter with strong order rates during July, the last month of the quarter," Fishman said.
"In addition, our DSP product revenues for the quarter accounted for approximately 22 percent of company revenues and grew 4 percent sequentially and 28 percent compared to the same period last year."
Analog Devices' revenues grew in every region of the world with the strongest growth in Japan, primarily driven by consumer electronics equipment, Fishman said. Sales in Japan accounted for approximately 19 percent of revenue, the Americas 25 percent, Europe 20 percent, and Southeast Asia 36 percent.
"We are encouraged by the strong order rates since early July," said Fishman.

Brewers up against surging Twins
Brewers up against surging Twins
MINNEAPOLIS -- The Brewers began a three-game series on Friday against the Twins at the Metrodome, and while the two teams hooked up just two weeks ago at Miller Park, Milwaukee might not recognize its opponent.
Since the Brewers beat the Twins, 4-2, on June 15, Minnesota has reeled off nine straight wins -- three consecutive sweeps of National League opponents (Washington, Arizona and San Diego).
It is a drastic change from the Minnesota team that entered the previous matchup with Milwaukee losers of seven of eight games.
But the Brewers aren't paying attention. "Just because they're hot, or if they are not hot, we don't change our approach," Brewers manager Ned Yost said. "That doesn't enter into anything. Our approach is exactly the same." Seth McClung started the June 15 contest and got the win, the Brewers' only victory in the series. McClung gets a chance to end Minnesota's nine-game streak on Friday. Center fielder Mike Cameron said the Brewers don't perceive the Twins any different this time around. "Respect your opponents the same way," Cameron said. "They are playing much better now, so that means that we have to be better than we were. That's about it." The Brewers are not unfamiliar with hot streaks, however. They have won eight of 10 and are the Major Leagues' hottest team since May 20. In that span, Milwaukee has gone 23-11.

I can't imagine what my life would be like without having a child (or in my case children). I have always wanted to be a mom. I dreamed of having my own family way back in my early teen ('tween) years. I always envisioned the "perfect" life with a loving husband, two wonderful children, a dog and a house with a white picket fence. I think most people have that same idealology.
I do have a loving husband, and I have two wonderful kids (when they are not driving me crazy), a dog, five cats and we live in a shoebox size condo with no picket fence. At least I am living part of my dream life.
I am grateful that I was able to conceive children, and that I have a wonderful husband/partner in my life. My heart breaks for women who are unable to conceive and women who just haven't found the right person to have a child with. Everyone should experience the overwhelming love and joy of having a child. In a perfect world everyone who wanted a child should be able to have one with no limitations or hurdles. Sadly that is not the case.
Nina Davenport always dreamed of being a mom. Her biological clock started ticking decades ago. It went into overdrive with the birth of her niece. Sadly, being a 40-something woman with no significant partner in her life meant that time was of the essence. If she waited much longer to have a child it might be too late. As you know, the older you get the harder it is to conceive a child. Some people are lucky, like Hallie Barry who is 45. But for others the chances of conceiving are very slim once you hit your 40's.
Nina is the youngest child in the family. Her older brothers are both married with their own families. It seems like everyone around her is having children, except Nina. Knowing that the window of opportunity was rapidly closing Nina decided to take matters into her own hands.
With the blessing of her friends and most of her family (her father was not happy about the idea), Nina embarked on months of hormones to prepare her body for conception. Her gay friend Eric offered to be the sperm donor (not without a lot of prodding). And Nina's best friend Amy offered to be her birthing partner and be there for Nina when the baby was born.
Nina was lucky and was able to conceive on the first try. Nine months later her adorable son Jasper was born.
You would THINK it was all that easy. It wasn't. There was a lot that went on in Nina's life before, during and even long after the birth of her son. She had to deal with loss, her father putting her down for the choices she made in her life, her love life and a myriad of ups and downs.
Nina is a film maker who specializes in documentaries. She spent years documenting her journey into motherhood. First Comes Love is her documentary on her life before the birth of her son and beyond. You'll be able to follow along Nina's journey and come face to face with her family and friends and walk beside Nina through the good times and the bad times. You'll cheer for her, you'll want to reach into the TV and give her a hug, and you'll want to have a few "choice words" for others. Be there when Nina learns she learns her lifelong dream of becoming a mother was about the come true. Witness the birth of her son Jasper (FYI… it's graphic).
First Comes Love is a must see documentary that everyone who is a parent, or thinking about becoming a parent, should see. I think it's also important for older, single women to see that it is possible to become a mom even if you don't have a partner or if you are in your 40's (or even 30's). More and more women are opting to be single mothers. I salute all single mothers out there. I'm fortunate to have a wonderful husband. It's hard enough to raise children with two parents. I can't imagine doing it alone and having to juggle parenting, trying to have a love life and trying to maintain all your close relationships (both family and friends).
First Comes Love premieres tomorrow night (Monday, July 29, 2013) on HBO at 9:00 PM. You can learn more about the film and Nina Davenport on the HBO website and on her own personal website, www.NinaDavenport.com.

Paolo Ruberti and his co-equipers Gianluca Roda and Christian Ried ended the season in sixth place
Back from Bahrain where he run the final round of the FIA WEC 2013, Paolo Ruberti drew up the balance of the season that just ended.
The Veronese driver has been the fastest of class LMGTE AM in qualifying also in this occasion but a technical problem to the left rear suspension forced the number 88 Porsche 911 to retire during the fourth of the six hours.
Paolo Ruberti:
"After the good results obtained in 2012 we expected to be protagonists also in this season, but things did not go as we had hoped for: from the one side the level of lineups grew a lot in LMGTE Am, while from the other Aston Martins have often turned out to be unbeatable. As far as I am concerned, despite the final position in the standings, my overall balance is positive: I have been the quickest in qualifying and in the race in several occasions. Gianluca, Chrisitian and I did a great job with the team during the whole season".

2 DAYS TO DEBT DEADLINE; SHUTDOWN DAY 15 -- SENATE NEAR DEAL to postpone both cliffs to next year -- HOUSE UNDER PRESSURE: 'won't be pretty' -- WILL REPUBLICANS BE LEFT with little but bad polls?
DATA DU JOUR – DISapproval for handling of budget crisis, in new ABC News/WashPost poll: Republicans in Congress, 74% … Democrats in Congress, 61% … President Obama, 53%. Gary Langer writes for ABC: "[C]riticism of the GOP's handling of the budget dispute has grown by 11 percentage points since just before the partial government shutdown began, from 63 to 70 and now 74 percent – clearly leaving the party with the lion's share of blame. Indeed 54 percent now 'strongly' disapprove." http://goo.gl/2TNjHH
--WSJ A1, "Uneasy Investors Sell Billions in Treasurys," by Min Zeng: "In the past two weeks, investors have sold mountains of short-term debt issued by the government. Banks have also reduced their holdings, trimming such debt by more than 50% over that period … Amid anxiety about near-term finances, yields on U.S. debt that comes due in one month have risen to levels higher than for similar securities that don't mature for six months." http://goo.gl/mxiepb
Story Continued Below
BITE DU JOUR – Robert Gibbs, on MSNBC's "Now with Alex Wagner," on Obamacare glitches: "When they get it fixed, I hope they fire some people that were in charge of making sure that this thing was supposed to work." –Tal Kopan
STATE OF PLAY – "What Obama, Republicans get with a deal," by Carrie Budoff Brown, with Seung Min Kim, Jake Sherman, Manu Raju and John Bresnahan: "The [emerging Senate] proposal would fund the government until Jan. 15 and extend the debt limit until Feb. 7. The plan under consideration would also require larger bicameral budget negotiations to conclude by Dec. 13. Republicans would secure a provision to force Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius to certify that individuals receiving Obamacare subsidies meet the required income levels. The department's inspector general would later have to conduct an audit … This is a comedown from the delay in the medical device tax that Republicans had wanted … Democrats would win a labor union priority to delay for one year an Obamacare reinsurance tax, which was supposed to be levied against most insurance plans to help spread the risk for insurers who take on the sickest patients … Delaying the fee — $63 per person covered by an insurance plan per year — could amount to a significant boon to unions. …
"It's not a perfect deal for the White House — but it's a worse deal for Republicans. Democrats won't say it too loudly just yet, but the emerging budget agreement leaves Republicans with remarkably little to show for forcing the first government shutdown in 17 years: They barely nicked Obamacare and their poll numbers are in tank. President Obama would get most of what he wanted. He had insisted that Congress reopen the government and extend the country's borrowing authority without any ideological strings attached. He held the line on the debt ceiling and Democrats are set to hold off Republican attempts to lock in next year's round of sequester budget cuts early. But it's not the squeaky clean bill Obama sought. There would be minor changes to the … health care law. The White House and Democratic leaders will argue the Obamacare provisions were a one-for-one proposition — each party got a fix to the Affordable Care Act — and did not come as the price for raising the debt limit or restarting the government, according to Democratic officials involved in the talks.
"The Obamacare provisions risk muddying the president's message, but the changes are so negligible that even House Republicans are grumbling that it's a clean debt limit increase. Even if the potential Senate deal survives in the House — still very much an open question — Obama would soon be back fighting the next round with Republicans. The debt limit increase would last almost four months. It's less than what Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid wanted, but longer than what House Speaker John Boehner suggested. And the next debt limit hike wouldn't be contingent upon a budget deal, as Boehner proposed. Above all, Democratic leaders thinks the potential deal allows them to make progress on their overarching goal: Convincing Republicans that Democrats won't cave to debt limit demands." http://goo.gl/Ts3oz7
PRESSURE RISES ON BOEHNER -- Jake Sherman and John Bresnahan: "Speaker John Boehner … will soon be faced with an uncomfortable choice: Pass an emerging bipartisan Senate deal to lift the debt ceiling and fund the government, or … risk massive political and economic consequences. … Boehner's leadership team, allies and rank-and-file lawmakers spent Monday saying that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell are gearing up to send the House a crummy deal. … The buzz in the Republican cloakroom and on the floor was that the House was being asked to vote for a clean debt limit and continuing resolution — in short, the concessions won by McConnell were not victories at all. One House Republican said they would be lucky to find 20 GOP lawmakers willing to vote for this proposal. … Boehner, Cantor and Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy will test the waters Tuesday morning in a House Republican Conference meeting. …
"House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi called Boehner on Monday evening, and the speaker would not give a hint of what his plans were. … If the Senate passes the proposal, Boehner could put it on the floor and amend it by adding a delay of the medical device tax, or insist that the Obama administration cancel the penalty for not signing up for Obamacare. … Most House Republicans concede that they can't go far past the Oct. 17 deadline, but they think they can tip-toe close — and perhaps dance an inch or two over. Some senior Republicans see Nov. 1 — when Social Security and veterans' benefit payments are to be sent out to millions of Americans — as a more realistic deadline. …
"[M]any acknowledge that [at the end of the day,] Boehner will have to pass the Senate's deal, but it won't be pretty. [McCarthy told reporters after two hours of closed-door leadership meetings:] 'The biggest think you hear from members is "What is this?" because they keep hearing it change so drastically every time' … A market spiral could inject some urgency into the House Republican Conference. Boehner could … explain that this deal will give Republicans a chance to negotiate over the next government funding bill and debt ceiling -- something President Obama said he would never do. Rep. Paul Ryan could make the case that winning a budget conference is a victory — and he will fight for Obamacare changes, entitlement reform and tax changes … But the other view, expressed anonymously by senior aides and lawmakers, is that this deal is not enough. After a 14-day shutdown that has left America on the brink of a debt default, the Republicans who provoked this fight will be left with nothing but declining poll numbers. These aides and lawmakers are watching the bumpy Obamacare rollout and know that the pack of 30 or so lawmakers who have stymied Boehner at every turn will push for more significant health care changes.
"Changing this bill comes with massive risk for Boehner. For several weeks, Boehner has weathered calls to lift the debt ceiling and fund the government. But facing this deadline, Boehner would have a tougher time resisting a bipartisan agreement with the nation teetering on economic disaster. Some in leadership believe there is some win for Republicans in this proposal. Ryan gets his budget conference and Republicans get the government reopened and the debt ceiling lifted for a short period of time, instead of the yearlong increase Democrats were seeking. Republicans also get to the government funding and debt ceiling fight separate, as conservatives wanted. They have another 'bite at the apple' … to enact budgetary reforms. Ryan, whom many see as the most trusted voice in the party, would get a chance to hash out a budget deal with Democrats and Obama … Washington would face another budget crisis Jan. 15, when government funding runs out and the next round of sequestration is slated to hit. The debt ceiling will need to be lifted again sometime from February to April … which places the fight just months before the 2014 midterm elections." http://goo.gl/alUX4N

OUT TODAY -- D.C. MUST-READ: DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Shultz releases her first book, "For the Next Generation: A Wake-Up Call to Solving Our Nation's Problems" (with Julie M. Fenster; St. Martin's Press). The congresswoman tells Playbook she started writing the book three years ago because she wanted to describe how being a young mom changed her outlook on what members of Congress should do to make good policy: "We tell our kids to work together and care about their community. We need to do the same." From the chapter called "Discourse, Not Discord": "Differences of opinion are natural and healthy aspects of a democracy governed by two parties, and we must be able to express these differences with civility. But as anyone who has observed Washington knows, we are not always able to hold ourselves to these standards of conduct. The modern political climate is nastier than any in recent memory, marked by party members who tend to hector one another when they should be engaged in constructive debate."

FOR YOUR RADAR – L.A. Times A1, "Weapons deal may help Assad prolong his rule: He is essential to the effort to rid Syria of its chemical arsenal, a process expected to last until mid-2014," by Patrick J. McDonnell in Beirut: "For much of Syria's civil war, President Bashar Assad has been a man in retreat. … But the U.S.-Russian deal to eliminate Syria's chemical arms, which headed off a U.S. missile barrage, has changed that. Assad is now an essential partner in a process that will last until at least mid-2014, and could drag on much longer. In a few short weeks, the push to eliminate Syria's chemical weapons under international supervision has, in the view of many, in effect supplanted the goal of ousting Assad. On Monday, Syria formally became the 190th nation to sign on to the Chemical Weapons Convention, the international treaty outlawing the use and production of such arms. … The turnaround has caused profound consternation among Syrian opposition figures and regional powers such as Turkey and Saudi Arabia that have strongly backed the rebels."
2016 WATCH – HRC TO STUMP FOR McAULIFFE -- Emily Schultheis: "Hillary Clinton is hitting the campaign trail with Virginia gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe this weekend, the first time the former Secretary of State will appear publicly for the Democratic candidate. Clinton will headline a 'Women for Terry' event in Falls Church, Va., on Saturday … [She] has already hosted one fundraiser for McAuliffe and has a second one planned for later this week. With just over three weeks to go until the Nov. 5 election, polling shows McAuliffe with a durable upper-single-digit lead over GOP Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli."
POTUS MAKES VIDEO FOR CORY BOOKER – ELECTION TOMORROW -- Katie Glueck: "President Obama is getting out the vote for Cory Booker with a new video for the New Jersey Senate hopeful. 'Cory Booker has spent his entire life bringing people with different perspectives together, regardless of party, to take on tough challenges,' Obama says in the clip for the Democratic candidate. … The message comes ahead of Wednesday's special election, which Booker appears poised to win over GOP candidate Steve Lonegan, though the race has tightened … In the video, which clocks in at under a minute and a half, Obama urges voters to make a logistical 'plan' for Election Day in order to vote for Booker, 'a leader with uncommon character. … New Jersey…has the opportunity to send a message to the entire country about what kind of leadership we expect from our representatives in Congress. That we're better than the shutdown politics we've seen in Washington." See the video. http://goo.gl/x2FJeh
HAPPENING TODAY – "Watch Live … Sabato to Unveil New Finding on JFK Assassination": "University of Virginia Center for Politics Director Larry J. Sabato will reveal a major new finding regarding the assassination of President John F. Kennedy at 10 a.m. … The finding calls into question one of the conclusions of a major government report on the JFK assassination. … Sabato will describe scientific findings about a key piece of evidence that undergirds a government study. … The live webcast will kick off the Center for Politics' Kennedy Legacy Project, which includes … a forthcoming international PBS documentary produced by the Emmy-winning Center for Politics and Community Idea Stations team; a free online course on JFK, beginning Oct. 21 and available through Coursera and iTunes U; and a forthcoming mobile app that will let users re-live the events of Nov. 22, 1963." News release, including 10 a.m. livestream link, and link for watching on iPhone/iPad http://goo.gl/yxOlhz
--SNEAK PEEK – "Sabato's JFK book takes aim at House conspiracy theory," by James Hohmann: "University of Virginia political scientist Larry Sabato commissioned a scientific analysis of the Dallas Police Department's Dictabelt recording of scanner traffic from Nov. 22, 1963, as part of his research for [his new, 624-page book, which he has been working on for five years,] 'The Kennedy Half Century: The Presidency, Assassination, and Lasting Legacy of John F. Kennedy.' Investigators for the House Select Committee on Assassinations relied heavily on the tape to say there was a high probability that Lee Harvey Oswald was not the lone gunman. The microphone on a motorcycle cop's radio was stuck, so it was believed to capture a full recording from the motorcade. They detected four gunshots on the tape, and two academics told the committee that they believed one came from the grassy knoll — not the Texas School Book Depository. …
"'The long-hoped-for Rosetta Stone of the Kennedy assassination is nothing of the sort,' he writes. 'And the much-publicized conclusion of proven conspiracy … was deeply flawed and demonstrably wrong.' It turns out that the motorcycle cop whose radio was transmitting was not where the investigators believed him to be when they did their tests. He was actually more than two miles away in a place where his radio could not have picked up the sound of gunshots. The firm Sonalysts concluded that some of the sound impressions on the recordings that were interpreted as gunfire a generation ago are nearly identical to other sound impressions earlier on the tape that are definitively not gun shots." http://goo.gl/yZPsp9
THE INTERNATIONAL NEW YORK TIMES launched today, as the successor to the International Herald Tribune (with, to our surprise and disappointment, the IHT's old typography, layout and palette). Publisher Arthur Ochs Sulzberger Jr. has a front-page "Letter to Our Readers": "Today we celebrate the debut of The International New York Times, a news report tailored specifically for the valued members of our global audience … [and e]dited from Paris, London, Hong Kong and New York … Only a few decades ago, The New York Times was a well respected but metropolitan newspaper. My father, Arthur Ochs Sulzberger, had the vision to make The Times a national newspaper in 1980. Though seen as a gamble at the time, it was clearly the right decision. Today, our future is global. … Over the past year, we have built one news-gathering operation by combining the journalistic strengths and the newsrooms of The New York Times and The International Herald Tribune, with continuous news desks and a 24/7 global news flow from Hong Kong, Paris, London and New York. …
"We have more international correspondents reporting from more locations than ever before. With today's action, we are creating a single, unified global media brand, which will allow us to expand our digital hubs, grow our editorial team, add more international voices in news and opinion, and increase the coverage provided by some of our best writers from around the globe. … It is our belief that The International New York Times will help you experience the world, while connecting and engaging with a global community of politically and culturally passionate people."

Quietly yet inexorably, the Frankfurt Book Fair management is readying the launch of a low-cost electronic rights service containing options available from competing commercial services, including secure communication and a negotiating platform. In a first step, Frankfurt went online with a year-round rights catalogue open to all, including nonexhibitors at the fair, with a comprehensive search engine and the possibility for paid subscribers to update their own entries. A supplementary feature, christened e-stands, enables publishers to present company profiles and catalogues under the Frankfurt flag. At the moment, the online catalogue lists and describes some 21,000 titles from more than 60 countries.
Beginning this summer, the fair will introduce its negotiating platform: a "private area" for the exchange of information, sample chapters or full manuscripts—guaranteed secure "so that even we in Frankfurt can't look at it," promised Marifé Boix García, head of the fair's new e-business department. Fees have been established for listings in the online catalogue and book fair Who's Who, as well as for title listings—e.g., DM 100 per year for up to 25 titles, DM 300 for 26 to 100. (Count DM 2.2 to one U.S. dollar.) Fees for the negotiating service have yet to be determined.
In keeping with its pro bono function, the fair will also offer tools such as standard contracts for companies and countries not yet part of the international marketplace.

Clean Wind Energy Tower, Inc. Company Presentation Well Received at National Investment Banking Association (NIBA) Conference
Feb 27, 2012, 09:00 ET from Clean Wind Energy Tower, Inc.
ANNAPOLIS, Md., Feb. 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Clean Wind Energy Tower, Inc. (OTCBB: CWET, the "Company") announced today that the Company's presentation was well received by a large audience at the National Investment Banking Association (NIBA) Conference held on February 23-24, 2012 at the Le Pavillon Hotel in New Orleans, Louisiana. The NIBA Conference attendance was drawn from its invited guests and their multinational membership representing over 8,800 registered reps with an estimated $78BB in assets under management.
The highlights of the Company's presentation given by Ronald W. Pickett, President and CEO, included an overview of the development of their Downdraft Tower featuring their innovative Renewable Energy Solution. Mr. Pickett also discussed the Company's recent announcement to lease a substantial parcel of property located in the southwestern United States, suitable for the development and construction of a Downdraft Tower as well as their Notice of Allowance of its patent application titled Efficient Energy Conversion Device Methods that maximizes the capture and use of available wind tunnel energy.
Mr. Pickett stated: "We were honored to be invited once again by NIBA to present our Company and we are very enthusiastic about the interest this year's Conference generated in Clean Wind Energy Tower, Inc. Our platform presentation and Q&A sessions were very well received by attendees wanting to learn more about the execution of our business model."
Abundant, Clean, Affordable Energy
As designed, the Company anticipates that each Downdraft Tower could generate enough electricity to power up to 1,600,000 homes using the guidelines set forth in the California Statewide Residential Appliance Saturation Study, 2004. As an independent power producer of clean renewable energy, the Company will not be selling power directly to consumers but rather to the grid. As currently designed, the Company anticipates that each Downdraft Tower will be capable of generating 1,100 megawatts per hour of salable electricity to the grid. One megawatt equates to 1,000,000 watts or 1,000 kilowatts of electricity. Currently, avoided costs per kilowatt in California are running approximately $0.11 per kilowatt hour.
About Clean Wind Energy, Inc.
Clean Wind Energy, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Clean Wind Energy Tower, Inc., has designed and is preparing to develop, and construct large "Downdraft Towers" that use benevolent, non-toxic natural elements to generate electricity and clean water economically by integrating and synthesizing numerous proven as well as emerging technologies.
Our Company's core objective and focus is to become a leading provider of clean efficient green energy to the world communities at a reasonable cost without the destructive residuals of fossil fuel, while continuing to generate innovative technological solutions for today and tomorrow's electrical power needs. In addition to constructing Downdraft Towers in the United States and abroad, the Company intends to establish partnerships at home and abroad to propagate these systems and meet increasing global demand for clean water and electricity. Clean Wind has assembled a team of experienced business professionals, engineering and scientific consultants with access to the breakthrough energy research upon which this technology is founded and the proven ability to bring the idea to market. Clean Wind has filed several patents that the Company believes will further enhance this potentially revolutionary technology. Clean Wind Energy, Inc. is based in Annapolis MD, and is traded on the OTCBB under the symbol 'CWET'. For more information, please visit www.cleanwindenergytower.com.

I set a wedding cake at 3 this afternoon at 8 this evening the aunt calls and says cake has crumbled . I told her that I had a signed release that the cake was ok. i told her that i couldnt be responsible for it 5 hours later I dont know someone could have bumped in to it any way she then told me that it was not straight and no constructed correctly I have a picture proving that it was straight. When stacking the cake the Uncle had to put a paper towel under card table leg to level the table then it was stacked on top of 12 candle holders that on the front left cornner didnt even touch brought both matters to him and he said I think it will be ok. I printed a picture of cake and took to the wedding to see what happened an try to be gracious to coustomers. I have the person at site sign a release stating the cake is ok and that releases me from liabiltys , I have stacked many cake the last 8 years and have never had this happened I use 1/2 inch dowels 8 in each tier . The Bride brought it to my attenion that I did not put the right design on it and that the silver beads were not the right color the beads were silver as her request but not shiney enough. the design was wrong but everything else was right the cake did crumble on the bottom 2 tiers towards the front left where the glass had no support the top 2 tier were fine . I told them Iwas sorry for not getting the right design on the cake and if they come in next week will make it right with them i dont know what to do how much do I give them back. Thank you any help .
They get nothing for the cake collapsing since you did have her sign a release, do have photos of the cake perfectly intact and the cake table was unsteady. However, the wrong design...I'd say at least 10% back or offer a 1st Anniversary cake for free. Sorry this happened to you!
Thank you Katlhaper I need to learn to let go but it really gets to mesome times
Was the design really wrong? Do you have a sketch they signed off on at consultation? Did they supply a picture for you to use as inspiration?
If you REALLY did get the design wrong, then I believe some sort of refund or credit is in order. NOT for the whole cake...but a percentage. And I hate to say it, but I think design is at least 50% of a cake purchase. And possibly more depending on just how wrong the design was. If you're talking minor design flaws (like not shiny silver balls or the wrong flower) then it's much less. Tell them you will do their anniversary tier next year for free. Or give them a gift certificate in the amount you want to use as a credit. After the cake has been delivered, it's the customer's responsibility. You fulfilled that part of the deal. Sounds like the table and the set up they had for you was the problem....THEIR problem. Hang in there. Hope it works out well for you. Good luck!
as for "not shiney enough" on the silver beads ===
Oh give it UP, bridezilla!
If she's comparing to a photo -- uh PHOTOSHOP????? where everything and everyone is digitally perfect and sparkly.
she's scaming you for a refund.
do you have pictures of the cake she wanted and the cake she got?
And how much is it off? ( the design)
Not shiny enough? too bad, so sad..
Hope she doesn't give you too much trouble,
my sketch was 4 tiers with with silver beads and purple ribbon around the bottom of each tier and that is what I had when she came in and signed the contract then a few week before the wedding she came in with a picture that had a cake with the quilted pattern I slipped it in her folder and didnt even think about it because my drawing is what I go off of It was my fault that i didnt change my drawing and just sliped her photo in the sleve. I feel so bad about all of it the bride wasnt even as up set about the cake toppling as she was that the beads not being shiney and that i didnt put the pattern on. Im just at a lost!!!!
I will say that 8 dowels in one tier may have compromised the integrity of the cake and caused a collapse. You really don't have to use that many dowels. Good for you for having a contract and having it signed as release at the venue!
In my humble opinion - beads: no big deal; no quilting - 25% discount.
Amen to every word Doug said.
hubby has a theory that has proved right more often than not over the the years. If there is a problem, the person will address the PROBLEM. And that's all. But if they are lying or trying to scam you, then suddenly there's more and more issues that are the problem.
First the cake crumbled. Ok, that's a problem. Then they add the design is wrong. Then the beads aren't shiny enough. They just keep adding to it ...... why? Because they hope they'll hit on SOMETHING that will get them their money back?
I'm not dismissing a fallen cake or a wrong design, but I also never dismiss red flags from those who just keep adding to it and adding to it.
I'm a little concerned about the 8- 1/2 inche dowels per layer too--why so many and what kind of dowels?
When I hear the word dowel I think wooden, solid. 8 would really mess with a cake, especially 1/2 inch size.
Yes they were wooden and how many should I use ? I put 3 across in a square on the 2 bottom layers because the the layers are so big then on the 4 on top layers
Yes they were wooden and how many should I use ? I put 3 across in a square on the 2 bottom layers because the the layers are so big then on the 4 on top layers
I use dowels that are the width of a pencil. I use four in the tiers, no matter what size. I "might" use 5 in a larger bottom tier if it's a 4 tier cake or taller.
But pretty much 4 will do it.
Thank you every one for all the info I just have not had much ever happen and didnt know how to handle it of course I know things an mistakes happen but I try to make it right even when Im in the wrong or not. I started having people sign the release when a lady drove around with a three layer cake in the seat of her car mothers day and went to the store and ran errands before going home and called and said all the Icing was falling off with the fondant flowers and butterflys. That was when I knew a release was needed.
Things like this make want to quit wedding cakes but I really love doing them and decorating cakes. In 8 years I have had very few accidents and never had a Wedding cake fall 5 hrs after setting it up.

I am in awe at how dumb a person can be. And then to call you and admit it? [Banging head on desk]
Ladiesofthehouse I know and thanks I loved you reply
Well the Bride came out today and I refunded her half the money back for the wrong design but told her I would not refund anything for the cake crumbling because of the table being leveled up with a paper towel and that the glass that the cakes was on didn't touch on the left front side of the candle cups and she said she was sorry and she did see both of the things I pointed out in which that is were the cake slide to the left front she had Pictures of the damage before it fully slid off . I'm sorry this all happened but a lesson learned so now with the good Grace of God I will move to this weeks Weddings!!!!
You did good with giving her a refund on the design issues, but I wouldn't have given her a refund for the set-up either. You set up according to their specifications...you cannot be held responsible for shaky tables or uneven candle holders. Shake it off and move on...with no guilty conscience.

Members of Bethel Lutheran visit sister church in Tanzania
Nineteen members of Hudson's Bethel Lutheran Church delivered a state-of-the-art sound system to a sister church in the African country of Tanzania last month.
They pooled their unspent travel money at the end of the two-week visit and also bought 10 bicycles and a used car for the church staff to use.
But the Rev. Joanne Sorenson says the Americans gained just as much from the trip as their African brothers and sisters.
"What I took away from them was their wealth of spiritual awareness and depth of faith," Sorenson said in an interview last Thursday.
The group from Bethel Lutheran left March 4 for Iringa, Tanzania, a city of between 200,000 and 300,000, located 250 miles inland from the Indian Ocean. They flew from Minneapolis to Chicago to Amsterdam to Dar es Salaam, the capital city of Tanzania, and then rode eight hours by bus into the highlands to Iringa.
A welcoming party of 100 or more members of Cathedral Lutheran Church of Iringa met them on the outskirts of the city.
"We got off the bus and they had a line-up of people to shake our hands and sing. People were singing to us and dancing and waving branches," Sorenson recalled. "I kept looking around for the king and queen, but they weren't there. It was just us. It was incredible. We just sort of stood there looking dumbfounded."
A second welcoming party, including a choir of 60 children, was there to greet them when they arrived at the church.
The sister church relationship between Bethel Lutheran and Cathedral Lutheran started in the past year at the prompting of Gary and Kit Elert.
The Elerts had visited Tanzania earlier with a different group of Lutherans. When they joined Bethel a couple of years ago, they asked the asked the Hudson church to consider forming a partnership with the church in Iringa, and offered to provide the initial funds to establish it.
The partnership is part of a sister church program run by the St. Paul Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.
After learning that Cathedral Lutheran needed a loudspeaker system, Bethel's congregation held a couple of fund-raisers and came up with the money to buy one.
The purpose of the recent trip was to deliver the sound system and deepen the relationship between the two churches.
"We packed it up and carted this thing across several continents," Sorenson said of the sound system. "Everyone had a box. Every piece arrived, miraculously."
Following the instruction manuals that came with it, members of Bethel Lutheran spent a day installing the sound system in the church. It consisted of a control panel, 10 wireless microphones and four large speakers that were mounted at the front and sides of the sanctuary.
"It worked great," Sorenson reported. "They were so excited. They couldn't believe it."
The Sunday that the Bethel members attended services at Cathedral Lutheran a youth group used the microphones to sing a song while they performed a choreographed dance.
"It looked like they were having so much fun. It was neat to see that happen," said Sorenson.
African Lutherans worship differently than Scandinavian American Lutherans, the Hudson group learned.
"There is a format to it. There is kind of a liturgy. But it's not like ours," Sorenson said of the services at Cathedral Lutheran. She said the African church had a worship book containing hymns and liturgy in Swahili that it followed occasionally, but much of the worship appeared to be extemporaneous.
"It's very different from anything here, that's all I can say," she said with a laugh. "It's their own thing. They had six choirs and it seemed like they all sang all the time ... They worship with their whole selves - singing and dancing and more singing and dancing and more. It just goes on and on and on."
Like Bethel, Cathedral Lutheran holds three worship services on Sundays. But each service lasts about two hours. The Hudson group arrived for the first service at 7 a.m. and didn't leave the church until 2 p.m.
The visitors stayed in a three-floor hotel with flush toilets, a rarity in that part of Africa.
The hotel was old, but adequate, Sorenson said. The electricity wasn't dependable, but they had been forewarned and brought flashlights to cope with the outages.
Throughout the week, the Bethel members met with the leadership of the church to learn about how it operates. They also visited schools, orphanages, a clinic, a village church and archeological site where Stone Age tools and weapons have been found.
Tanzania has a lot of orphanages because so many children have lost their parents to AIDS, Sorenson noted.
In the evenings, the Bethel members were dinner guests at homes of Cathedral Lutheran elders. The meals were good and nearly identical - rice, chicken, peas, spinach and bananas, cooked in ways and with spices Sorenson hadn't tasted before.
Every meal came with bananas, she said. "Mashed bananas, cooked bananas, sliced bananas, fresh bananas. Always bananas."
Near the end of their visit, they went on a two-and-a-half-day safari to Ruaha National Park, a 150-square-mile wildlife refuge about 50 miles outside of Iringa.
They toured the park in Land Rovers by day, seeing all manner of African animals. At night, they dined at candle-lit tables set in a riverbed gone dry because of a long drought.
An elephant sauntered past as they ate one evening.
In their farewell meeting with the leaders of Cathedral Lutheran, the group from Bethel was presented with a list of the African church's goals and needs. The list included a bicycle for the church's seven evangelists who often had to walk long distances to outlying meeting places.
The church of some 4,000 members also said it would like to have a car for its two pastors and other workers.
The Bethel members figured out how much money they had saved by having their meals provided, and as a result of lower than expected hotel rates, and decided to use the saving to help meet their sister church's transportation needs.
"We called them back into the room and told them, and you would have thought they had won the lottery," Sorenson said. "Everyone was whooping and hollering and jumping."
"We went down the street to the little bicycle shack and bought 10 bicycles that day." And there still was enough money to order a used car.
It arrived last week, and a church member e-mailed a picture of it to Sorenson.
"I'm sure they're overwhelmed with all the stuff we brought them," Sorenson said. "But I look at them as being the wealthy folks."

Stocks came under significant pressure Friday in the wake of fresh concerns about emerging markets and their currencies. The S&P 500 index suffered its biggest one-day percentage decline since June 20, and the Dow Jones Industrials had their first back-to-back declines of more than 1% since April 2012.
The current uneasiness and budding negative sentiment accelerated following Thursday's double-digit drop in the Argentine peso, and fears of contagion rattled foreign exchange markets overnight. It does not help that China is suffering a manufacturing slowdown, which has caused a decline in demand for the sort of commodities on which most emerging markets depend for export sales.
It's interesting how investors have gone from a period of not having anything to worry about to panicking about "currency contagion," a term that had almost vanished from the vocabulary. The S&P 500 Volatility Index (VIX) shot up 31.7% to its highest level since the darkest days of the U.S. government shutdown in October of last year.
My research suggests that Friday's decline was overdone and is likely to reverse, at least partially, this week. The VIX is likely to fall back to Earth, and some central-bank action over the weekend should help soothe fears on the currency front.
From a technical perspective, the most interesting development was that the S&P 500 Index traded below its 50-day moving average (DMA) for the first time since Oct. 9 of last year. Uptrends are generally defined as conditions in which the benchmark index is above its 50-day average, so people will be wondering whether a new bearish trend is at hand.
However, there was some interesting research published late Friday by analysts at Bespoke Investment Group that throws cold water on those fears. They found that, historically, more often than not, the break below the 50-day after a long period above that level has not been indicative of an imminent sell-off in the S&P 500 index.
In the S&P 500's history dating back to 1928, there have only been 62 occurrences in which the index closed below its 50-day after trading above it for the prior three months or longer. The returns for the index over the subsequent week, month and three-month period following closes below the 50 DMA for the first time in three months are surprising.
Bespoke reports that the next week has seen an average return of 0.5%, and median returns have been slightly lower at 0.4%. The month following a fresh close below the S&P 500 index's 50 DMA have also been positive, with average returns of 1.7% and median returns of 1.5%. The three-month period has seen even better returns, with the S&P 500 averaging a 3.2% gain and a median return of 4.5%.
Digging a little deeper, Bespoke observes that in the last 30 years there have been 23 instances in which the S&P crossed its 50 DMA after at least three months of closes above it. In that three-decade span, the market has been up 65%, 74%, and 83% of the time over the following week, month and three months following such a 50 DMA breach.
Excluding the extreme outlier of 1987, the only three down periods over the following three-month period in the last 30 years have averaged a decline of just 0.8%. If historical patterns hold true to form, Bespoke analysts conclude, then Friday's smackdown is not a good indicator that the next bear market is just around the corner.
As such, I'm primarily bullish in my holdings, and I've identified an options trade ready to return an easy 50%-plus in the short term.
Annaly Capital Management (NLY[1]) is a $10 billion mortgage REIT whose shares carry an annual yield of 11.4% at current levels. The mortgage REITs were annihilated over the past two years over the threat of rising interest rates, but now they are seen to be a highly-leveraged proxy on the improving mortgage market. NLY shares fell to their 450-week average at the end of 2013, which was the same level they hit at the end of the last major bear market. They doubled from there over the ensuing four years.
I recommend buying the NLY Feb. $10 calls at current levels (which are about 70 cents). My target for the calls is $1.10, but you should always be ready for a market turn, so place a stop at 55 cents, good till canceled.

Branch's big game keeps Pats rolling
Tom Brady pointed with his left index finger. Deion Branch picked up the signal and changed his route. The result was a 63-yard pass play.
On a team with star receivers Wes Welker and Rob Gronkowski, Branch and Brady have a special chemistry that makes the New England Patriots offense even more dangerous.
The long connection came early in the second quarter of the Patriots' 38-20 win over the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday. Branch ran out of gas and was tackled at the Eagles 1-yard line, but Ben- Jarvus Green-Ellis rushed for the touchdown on the next play. Suddenly, the Patriots had a 14- 10 lead and never trailed again.
Branch finished with six catches for 125 yards, one of his best games of the season.
"Deion is a very instinctive receiver," coach Bill Belichick said Monday. "He has a great sense of timing, of when the quarterback is ready to throw the ball, when he needs to be open, how to get open. Tom, from his position, kind of has that same sense of what the receiver would expect him to do and what he should do in certain situations and that's almost always what Deion would do."
The Patriots improved to 8- 3, tied for the best record in the AFC. They should improve on that Sunday when the Indianapolis Colts (0-11) visit. New England has scored the most points in the AFC. Indianapolis has allowed the most in the NFL.
Eight of the Colts losses have been by more than seven points.
Welker leads the NFL with 82 receptions and Gronkowski is tied for fifth with 60 and second with 11 touchdown catches. Even tight end Aaron Hernandez, with 47 receptions, is ahead of Branch's 45.
But Branch can still help " You have two smart guys, both very instinctive players, that if something comes up that you haven't done or talked about before, I'd say both of them probably would do the right thing," Belichick said. " Or what you would want them to do if you haven't told them what to do.
