Every fall, a big part of the economy in our valley has become "tree specialists" topping all the trees in one's yard, so the owners don't have to prune or clean up. This leaves an ugly, practically shadeless, stunted tree that sends out thousand of tiny "sucker" branches in the spring. Then, people wonder why it's so friggin hot in the summer.
If it's not that, people will just hack down a perfectly healthy, giant 50+ year old tree and leave the stump...never bothering to ever plant another tree in it's place. Then, they plant grass and water the sh!t out of it every day and wonder why it still turns yellow. They don't seem to grasp the concept that we're basically living in a desert and, with no shade, grass just fries.
The other thing that bugs me is how the city will butcher a massive old growth tree for the sake of a power line. They do a horrible job and, along with all the other stupid "gardening" going on here, it makes the whole city look like a bomb-shelled hell.
Trees are the only thing that make me miss the southeast.

Wow. You guys don't see anything wrong with having to ask permission to cut down your own tree in your own yard, that you own? Provided you own it and not a renter that is. This country is supposed to be free, how on earth is it free when you need permission to do something to you own home / land?
well, there has to be limits with anything - like, you can't have pool full of sulfuric acid, or alligators, or bonfires of plastic bottles and tires, etc...just because it's on your property. Trees are just as much of an environmental issue.
Trees play a massive role in helping to regulate the earth's atmosphere and temperatures. Because of the humidity in the south, it's harder to realize the amount of heat that's removed by the shade of a trees.
Just recently, I got in an argument with my landlord because he didn't want to plant any new trees in place of the old diseased ones he had removed. He didn't mind buying new trees...but he wanted some that didn't drop leaves, fruit or seeds, or that had roots that would come up over the ground that someone (not him) would have to mow over, or roots that interfered with plumbing, etc...basically, he wanted a tree that doesn't exist. So the solution, to him, is to not plant anything until that perfect tree magically appears. In the meantime, he or his wife occasionally come around and water the weeds that are the only thing that will now survive in that area. Re-****!ng-tarded.

[QUOTE=zach619;250629]Ohh, and that Miami sh** would never happen here. In order to cut down ANY tree on this island, you need approval from a specific town council member. I am talking EVERY tree. Private or public property. I want to cut down this old busted tree in the middle of my back yard, and I have to wait on a list for her to come look at it. I could probably just go back there and hack the thing down, but I don't want the neighbors to dime me out. Miami needs to tighten up their local government if they want to prevent this crap. Like I said, if they wanted to protect the land, they should have put a bid on it, or simply state that there could be no further development or removal of trees without approval.... If you don't have the laws in place to protect it, they can't really complain.[/QUOTE
I had the same prob with cutting the trees. After 3 or 4 over zealous "trimmings" across a few weeks no more tree.

After nearly eight years since their last update, the full-size Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban, and Ford Expedition and Expedition EL SUVs have finally been updated. While the 2015 Chevy SUVs were revealed last fall, Ford has just released details on its new full-size models. Now that we know what to expect from the upcoming versions of the two biggest names in the body-on-frame full-size SUV market, we want to know which model you would choose.While the 2015 Chevy Tahoe and Suburban are new from the ground up, the 2015 Ford Expedition and Expedition EL are a refresh of the existing platform. The 2015 Tahoe/Suburban are powered by GM's new 355-hp, 383-lb-ft 5.3-liter direct-injected EcoTec3 V-8 mated to a six-speed automatic transmission, while the Expedition twins receive the F-150 pickup's 3.5-liter direct-injected twin-turbocharged EcoBoost V-6 expected to have "at least 370 hp and 430 lb-ft of torque." A six-speed automatic also backs the EcoBoost engine.Both SUVs get updated styling, though the Chevy gets a more comprehensive makeover compared to the Expedition's mild face-lift. Chevrolet paid close attention to improving the interior with new styling and improved sound deadening, while the Expedition features a new gauge cluster and center stack with larger screens and more technology. Both models gain more active safety technology.For today's Thread of the Day, we want to know which mainstream three-row SUV you'd most like to own. Would you go for 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe or 2015 Ford Expedition? Or would you go for something else like the Nissan Armada or Toyota Sequoia? Sound off below.

1up - How does the Xbox's defining experience hold up if you've never played it before?
The original Halo was brilliant (for the time) but it doesn't hold a candle to today's games.
I also played it for the first time through Anniversary and really enjoyed it.
It struck me that even a decade ago games were considerably more challenging due to various design standards that have changed.
The best Halo for sure but I'm very much enjoying this new one too. Each sequel has been good in it's own way but not on the same page as Halo1 as far as campaign gameplay is concerned
The Library is an exceptional level but one that has the same type of relentless action during it's long level duration. Bad it is not for the fact that Flood is actually well done in Halo1- it's almost as if this level is a spiritual successor to the original Doom. People tend to dread this level and I can understand why but the idea that it's a rubbish level on the basis of essentially the same stretch of architectures and encounter types are missing the point. And encounters from one to another are set up differently anyway. This level certainly has it's fans

After opting not to strike a deal with former "CBS Evening News" anchor Katie Couric for a daytime talk show, CBS has instead inked a deal with "Survivor" host Jeff Probst to host a talker. Both Couric's new talk show on ABC and Probst's CBS project will debut in Fall, 2012.
According to B&C's Paige Albiniak, Probst will shoot a pilot next month, which will be shopped to TV stations across the country. He is not a stranger to the format, having filled in for Regis Philbin on "Live! with Regis & Kelly" as well as for Larry King on his eponymous CNN program.
With the same adventure Jeff approaches his own life, the show will take the same path. Whether it's a newsmaker-of-the-day, a celebrity or ordinary folks, Jeff will go further than typical discussion. The show will cover a range of topics from relationships to human interest. And like Jeff, the show will encourage action, change and discovery," said Aaron Meyerson, CTD's president of programming and development, in a statement.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'THREAD ARCHIVES' started by missindepent, Apr 2, 2015.
Is there a way to look at PMS you might have accidentally left? Like a trash can thingy?
Sadly, there is nothing within the PM system that has a "trash can" like feature.
The only way you can check a conversation you've left is if you have left it so that you still can receive future messages (which is what I do just in case they want to use the same PM again to contact me.)
If you can receive future messages then you can ask the person if they can send you a message from that specific PM and you should be able to view it again. (Personally I have never gotten a PM from a conversation I left, so I'm not sure if you only get the new stuff or if the old stuff comes with it. Though I'm pretty sure the old stuff should come too.) Of course this will only be possible if they haven't left the conversation also.
If you have left the conversation completely and checked the box that didn't allow for you to receive future messages, then the best you can do is to contact your partner and ask for a copy of those messages if you want to check through them.
If you meant more of a "I just want to check so I haven't accidentally deleted a conversation I still want to look at and reply to" then no, that isn't possible. So you should be careful and check your PMs carefully before you delete them.

This innovative and timely study will measure the impact of Affordable Care Act (ACA) Medicaid expansions on cancer screenings and preventive services. To assess this natural policy experiment, the investigators will use electronic health record data from the Accelerating Data Value Across a National Community Health Center Network (ADVANCE) clinical data research network (CDRN) of the National Patient-Centered Clinical Research Network (PCORnet).
Cancer morbidity and mortality is greatly reduced through screening and prevention, but uninsured patients are much less likely than insured patients to receive these evidence-based services as recommended. In addition, uninsured cancer survivors receive fewer primary and preventive care services than those with health insurance. Thus, it is hypothesized that Affordable Care Act (ACA) Medicaid expansions could substantially improve access to essential cancer preventive and screening services for previously uninsured patients, and facilitate better care for cancer survivors who gain health insurance. In 2012, the United States (US) Supreme Court ruled that states were not legally required to implement ACA Medicaid expansions, creating a unique natural experiment to test this hypothesis. By April 1, 2015, 30 states and the District of Columbia had implemented expansions, and 20 states had not. This led to increased Medicaid enrollment by 26% in expansion states, compared to 8% in non-expansion states. Previous single-state Medicaid expansions led to increased utilization of healthcare services and improved health outcomes post-expansion. For example, in Oregon, cervical cancer screening rates were 18-19% higher among women who gained Medicaid in 2008, compared to those who remained uninsured. However, no previous assessments of state-specific expansions had concurrent control (non-expansion) states for comparison. Further, little is known about how Medicaid expansion impacts the delivery of recommended primary and preventive care services to cancer survivors, termed 'survivor care.'
The investigators propose to use the ACA Medicaid expansion natural experiment to study the effect of state-level Medicaid expansion on rates of cancer screening and preventive services ('cancer prevention') and survivor care. Many patients likely to gain coverage through ACA Medicaid expansions receive primary care in community health centers (CHCs), our nation's healthcare 'safety net;' thus, the proposed analyses will use electronic health record (EHR) data from the ADVANCE clinical data research network (CDRN) of CHCs (ADVANCE is one of 11 CDRNs in the national PCORnet data network). The ADVANCE CDRN has patient-level data from 476 CHCs in 13 Medicaid expansion states (n=576,711 patients) and 242 CHCs in 8 non-expansion states (n=361,421 patients). This nationally unique data resource will allow us to measure outcomes in expansion versus non-expansion states, illuminating the impact of increased Medicaid opportunities on rates of cancer prevention and survivor care within the safety net. The investigators will also assess whether disparities in delivery of this care are reduced. Our specific aims for this study, titled "Assessing Community Cancer care after insurance ExpanSionS (ACCESS)," are to:
Aim 1. Compare pre-post receipt of cancer prevention and screening among vulnerable CHC patients in Medicaid expansion versus non-expansion states.
Hypothesis 1a: Cancer prevention and screening will significantly increase among CHC patients in expansion states, compared to those in non-expansion states.
Hypothesis 1b: Racial/ethnic disparities in cancer prevention and screening will be significantly reduced in expansion states versus no change in non-expansion states.
Aim 2. Compare pre-post insurance status, visits, and receipt of routine, recommended primary and preventive care among cancer survivors seen in CHCs in expansion versus non-expansion states.
Hypothesis 2a: A higher percentage of uninsured cancer survivors will have gained insurance coverage in expansion states, compared to those in non-expansion states.
Hypothesis 2b: Cancer survivors who are CHC patients in expansion states will have a significant increase in visits, visits paid by Medicaid, and survivor care relative to no change among patients in non-expansion states.

text: Xantic has become the first company to announce the availability of the new Fleet 33 and Fleet 55 services. Last Friday a contract was signed with Nera for upgrades of both Xantic Land Earth StationsLES's in Holland (Burum) and Australia (Perth). The services will be available early April and will be provided in the 4 Ocean regions. At the same time Xantic's Fleet 77 service will be enhanced by the addition of a 9.6k fax channel. Fleet 33 / Fleet 55 are the new Inmarsat services specifically targeted at smaller vessels who have data requirements. Prime segments include yachts, fishing, coast guards and coastal commercial coastal vessels operating within the Inmarsat spot beams. The compact and light terminal equipment makes Fleet 33 and Fleet 55 specifically suited for installation and use on small and medium size vessels. The Fleet 33 and Fleet 55 improved data capability enables attractive and affordable solutions for data, e-mail, Internet and Intranet access, VPN's and voice services. " The expansion of the Inmarsat Fleet service to include Fleet 33 and Fleet 55 is an exciting move towards new business potential within the market for maritime Inmarsat services, says Terje- Ask Henriksen, President Nera SatCom. The new Fleet technology that Nera and Xantic are announcing means increased possibilities for users of smaller vessels to benefit of the improved maritime access to data services. In addition to global and secure telephone services, the user will now benefit from improved capability for Internet browsing and e-mail solutions when they are out at sea." All Inmarsat Fleet terminals combine medium or high-speed dial up data with the "always-on" capability of MPDS. Also a global voice service is available on each Inmarsat Fleet terminal. Main difference between the existing Fleet 77 service and the follow up products Fleet 33 and Fleet 55 is the fact that Fleet 77 provides all its services globally, where as Fleet 33 and Fleet 55 provide the data service in the Inmarsat spot beams. Fleet 33 provides dial-up fax and data at 9.6k, Fleet 55 users can also benefit from a 64k ISDN channel. Because of its global voice channel, Fleet services could also be a potential back-up system and crew calling solution onboard larger ocean going vessels. The addition of a 9.6k fax channel on Inmarsat Fleet 77 is seen as crucial for Merchant customers, who have indicated the importance of a dedicated Group 3 fax channel. As this enhancement is now in reach within of a couple of weeks, Fleet 77 reconfirms its promise to be the premium data solution for global sailing Maritime users.

Insurance companies and banks have complementary roles
Banks are increasingly launching financial planning services that are similar to those offered by the insurance industry. But while both types of institutions aim to help clients manage and protect their wealth, there are a number of fundamental differences between them when it comes to company infrastructure and customer relations models.
Products such as life insurance offered by insurance companies usually target on meeting medium- to long-term financial goals and often have an element of protection built in. Such products tend to be fairly complicated, and it is important that clients are comprehensively briefed about their attributes and benefits. Personal interaction between advisors and clients are therefore crucial when such products are recommended.
"Prudential's face-to-face advisory distribution model reflects the fact that our advisors need to understand our clients' lifestyles and requirements, so that they can recommend the right product combinations and explain the product features effectively," points out Michael Leung, chief agency officer, The Prudential Assurance Co Ltd.
Stressing that there are a number of operational differences between insurance companies and banks, Mr Leung says insurance companies tend to focus on building close client relations and on assisting clients to achieve their medium- to long-term financial goals. In such long-term relationships, insurance advisors provide clients with convenient one-stop services to meet their needs.
Niche markets
Insurance companies focus on clients' life and medical insurance needs and retirement planning, so they tend to be specialised in developing medium- to long-term savings products, Mr Leung says. Insurance advisors therefore like to establish long-term relationships with their clients as early as possible, so that they can assist them with their financial planning throughout the different stages of their lives.
"Prudential offers a range of longer-term products from 15- to 30-year investment plans. These types of programmes are niche products and personal consultations play a major role during the selling process. Once again, this reflects the "face-to-face advisory distribution model", Mr Leung states.
In addition, insurance advisors enjoy high mobility, which allows them to meet with clients at venues and times convenient to them. This leads to greater flexibility for clients too.
Insurance companies also tend to stress long-term financial planning goals and protection, as well as life cover, which are not necessarily priorities for banks.
Another reason why it can be beneficial for clients to choose an insurance company to handle their investments is that they are not charged when they rearrange their fund portfolios. "Particularly in times of risk, investors tend to switch funds from time to time. Insurance companies provide a free fund switching service, which many customers find attractive." Mr Leung notes.
Essential tools
In order to build long-term relationships with clients, Prudential places great emphasis on finding suitable candidates to join the industry.
Through Prudential's Academy of Financial Services, comprehensive recruitment and training programmes are rolled out. In particular, a career profile test helps find the right candidate and the PRUfinancial planning seminars help recruits to equip themselves with professional financial planning skills.
On the training side, a comprehensive three-level training scheme and an online learning portal help newcomers to acquire the necessary professional skill sets. Extensive on-going training is offered to financial advisors, keeping them abreast of the market trends.
Innovative products and sales tools are essential for financial planners to meet their clients' needs. Prudential's insurance consultant homepage is a one-stop portal where advisors can access the latest product information, company news and client information. Another effective tool "Mobile+" is handy for advisors to efficiently conduct financial-need analyses and risk profiling for clients. These tools help financial planners explain the risk levels associated with products, and find products that match their clients' profiles.
Prudential has developed a full spectrum of comprehensive financial planning services, including an introduction to financial planning and wealth management, risk profiling, proposing tailor-made financial plans and regular financial reports.
Clients investing in long-term savings or investment plans can expect returns that exceed those of bank deposits in the long run, Mr Leung says, but he emphasises that banks and insurance companies are not necessarily in direct competition with one another, since the two parties cater for different needs.
"After all, many people use both insurance companies and banks for their different financial services needs. What is certain is that a proper long-term financial plan can help clients increase their wealth," he concludes.

libasyncns is a C library for Linux/Unix for executing name service queries
asynchronously. It is an asynchronous wrapper around getaddrinfo(3),
getnameinfo(3), res_query(3) and res_search(3) from libc and libresolv.
In contrast to GNU's asynchronous name resolving API getaddrinfo_a(),
libasyncns does not make use of UNIX signals for reporting completion of name
queries. Instead, the API exports a standard UNIX file descriptor which may be
integerated cleanly into custom main loops.
In contrast to asynchronous DNS resolving libraries like libdenise, skadns,
adns, libasyncns is just an asynchronous wrapper around the libc's synchronous
getaddrinfo() API, which has the advantage of allowing name resolution using
techniques like Multicast DNS, LDAP or NIS using standard libc NSS (Name
Service Switch) modules. libasyncns is compatible with IPv6 if the underlying
libc is.
libasyncns is very tiny, consisting of just one header and one source file. It
has no dependencies besides libc.

Notes: The distinctive terminal labriform soralia (occasionally very sparse) and the partly to mostly ecorticate lower surface, usually with blackish striations, distinguish this species from all others in the study area. The lack of positive spot tests in both the medulla and the soralia also serve to separate it from other species with labriform or near labriform soralia (e.g. P. leucoleiptes).

I have a friend who is trying to quit smoking who has asked me to be her "stop smoking sponsor". In turn she has appointed herself my "get J.'s shoulder better" sponsor. I finally made an appointment with the doctor to go see if she can figure out what I did when I fell of Rolls and why every time I exert myself it seizes up and hurt like hell. Part if it (I KNOW!) is that I need to stop exerting myself for an actually significant amount of time ... like a month. Aaargh. My denial of what is "exertion" seems to be very similar to my friend's denial about how "one cigarette really won't hurt ..."
Yesterday morning my shoulder/neck hurt enough that I spent the whole staff meeting at work alternating between ice pack and heating pad. But then after some ibuprofen I felt better and when I took my daughter for her riding lesson I thought it might "loosen things up" if I rode Girlfriend. Plus, riding Girl at a walk/trot is really not that much exertion (for me ... since she's learned to be quiet with me). Maybe it was lifting the saddle? Sigh. We had a great ride. She seems to really like this new barn and is very relaxed but her spirits are high. And I think she likes the new arena because it is much lighter and the footing is better. And having T. (the new girl who is leasing her three days a week) and my instructor riding her seems to help too. Well, just getting ridden a lot more. Anyway, she did amazing. I'm so proud of my old girl!
One thing that is frustrating is that there are no beginner horses there except Tasha who can be borrowed from her owners for lessons with K. the other instructor, but right now Tasha has a stomach edema and can't have a saddle/girth on her. So, there aren't any horses in the entire stable that my mom can take lessons on.
So, I have no idea what is wrong with my shoulder/neck but it has to do with my SCM (sternocleidomastoid) muscle and my trapezius muscle. My SCM is totally screwed up and I'm not sure if it's a tendonitis from over-use after being pulled when I fell off Rolls or if it's something to do with ligaments or what the deal is. But I know that any kind of stress on my back makes it much worse whether it's shoveling in my clay garden, riding my horse, or picking up heavy boxes. Bah. All things that need to be done a lot while still being somewhat new in our house and our garden has to be started from scratch.

I did not want to deep-fry the Felafels, as I felt that it would detract from the "healthy" part of this dish, so I shallow-fried them in a combination of olive and vegetable oils. I filled the pitas with lettuce, tomato, thinly sliced onion and cucumbers. I made a yogurt sauce with yogurt, water, sesame oil and salt and pepper. All I can say is how wonderful it is to fulfill a craving, and eat deliciously and healthily at the same time!
I feel so empowered when I create dishes like these. Proving that with a little time and research, those boxed, pre-packed mixtures are basically useless. Not to mention filled with chemicals and preservatives. I mean, how hard is it to throw some beans, herbs and seasonings into a food processor, blend it, then refrigerate it? Hint: NOT HARD!!
This reminds me of another pet peeve of mine. People who cannot seem to mix ingredients in a bowl and simply must BUY cocktail sauce, or tartar sauce, for instance. I will look into the suspects' refrigerator (after they've told me that we simply cannot have shrimp cocktail, because they have no cocktail sauce), and notice that they have ketchup, horseradish, Worcestershire sauce and a lemon! Um, mix much? Same goes for tartar sauce...this same person had mayonnaise and relish on the door of their fridge, and said "oh, that's too bad, I have no tartar sauce, either". OH. MY. GOSH. Really? Eat well, my friends, and for the love of all that's good and holy, mix a couple things up from time to time, OK? There, I feel better now.

One of the most intriguing cases out there, the mystery of what happened to the Jamison family brings out the amateur sleuth in all of us. In October 2009, the Jamisons – Bobby, Sherilyn, and their six-year-old daughter, Madyson- disappeared from Eufaula, Oklahoma after heading out to remote territory in the Red Oak Mountain area with the hope of buying some land. They never returned home. Four years later in November 2013, their bodies were found, but their fate remains unknown.

Tabitha Lynn Franklin: Missing since 2009 from Alabama
I came across this case on Facebook, and decided to post it here because the person who is clearly responsible has not been arrested for a crime due to lack of evidence. Still, it's irritating.
Tabitha Lynn Franklin, 28, was a victim of domestic violence, survivor of sexual abuse, loving mother of three children, and now a missing person.
Lindsey Baum: What Happened to Washington 10-Year-Old?
On June 26, 2009, 10-year-old Lindsey Baum left her friend's house on Maple Street in McCleary, WA to walk the short distance to her home on E. Mommsen Road. The walk, one she made many times before, should have taken Lindsey only about 10 minutes. When Lindsey's 10 p.m curfew came and went, and the girl still wasn't home, her mother, Melissa Baum, became nervous.
Brittanee Drexel: Murdered or Victim of Human Trafficking?
In April 2009, 17-year-old Brittanee Drexel from Rochester, New York, asked her mother if she could go with friends down to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina for spring break, a common thing for Rochester teens to do every year. Her mother, Dawn Drexel, said no because she did not know the friends Brittanee was going with.
On April 24, 2009, Brittanee asked her mom if she could go with her friends to Charlotte Beach in New York state for the weekend. Dawn said yes.

WE'RE here, we're loud and we're going nowhere.
Tasmania's Aboriginal community says it finally got some recognition, and a voice, at the landmark 1967 referendum that took place 50 years ago this week.
"It gave us a place in the community, a recognition of some sort," Aboriginal Land Council chairman Clyde Mansell said.
"It set in place all those things that came with being recognised."
Tasmanians embraced the social change enthusiastically on May 27, 1967, delivering a 90.21 per cent yes vote, the third highest per capita of any state. Overall, 90.77 per cent of Australians voted in favour, the biggest yes vote in the country's eight successful referendum polls.
The actual changes now appear modest — the removal of two references in the Constitution. They meant Aboriginal Australians would be counted equally in the census and gave the Federal Government powers to make laws in relation to them.
Before that, states had inconsistently administered rights including marriage, voting and property ownership.
In Tasmania, it led to a movement being formed with the Aboriginal Information Service — later renamed the Tasmanian Aboriginal Centre — incorporated in 1973. The fight began in earnest for land rights, services, dual naming and a voice in the state's affairs.
"It took a long time for things to eventuate from the referendum, the community actually getting results," Mr Mansell said.
"The referendum was the basis of all those things coming into place."
The vote came after decades of campaigning.
As early as 1929, the London-based Anti-Slavery Society had called for a referendum, while a similar question was voted down in 1944.
But as the 1960s increasingly became a decade of change, as television shone a light on Aboriginal issues and national campaigners such as Charles Perkins emerged, the time had arrived. There was no official "no" case put and the result was overwhelming.
"It provided an affirmation of our identity," Tasmanian Recognise campaigner Caleb Nichols-Mansell said.
"It stopped that whole denial that was going on, and especially here in Tasmania where it's always been said that after Truganini there weren't any more Tasmanian Aborigines.
"It really affirmed we're here, we're loud and we're not going anywhere."
Rodney Dillon remembers his mother and aunty discussing the result and hoping it would mean better things for the community.
"I think I thought there was more in the referendum than what there was," the Tasmanian Regional Aboriginal Communities Alliance co-chair said.
"I work in Aboriginal communities and I see things that are pretty harsh and going backwards."
Land return, dual place naming and compensation for the stolen generations all progressed in Tasmania, but there remains more to do, community members agree.
Another referendum on constitutional recognition — spawning the Federal Government's Recognise campaign — will continue to be discussed by Aboriginal leaders this month.
Mr Nichols-Mansell said a treaty and land handbacks should be considered to avoid tokenism.
"Like the 1967 referendum, it will be a continuum," the 21-year-old said.
Mr Dillon said another referendum, 50 years after the 1967 landmark, would be a significant first step towards an eventual treaty.
"Certainly politicians understand that there's a treaty in the wind and that we will have to deal with it in some time," he said.
"It mightn't be tomorrow and it mightn't be the next day, but there will be a treaty in my lifetime."

This is an analysis of the labour rights track record of 12 major sportsbrands regarding sportswear production in Asia. The report highlights the unfair play inherent in this industry where, for example, Nike pays USD$16million a year to the Brazilian National Team and Adidas pays USD$1.8million a year to French player Zinedine Zidane while the workers who produce the football and sportsgear worn by these players earn as little as 47cents euro per hour. The paper examines the labour rights track record of each company and highlights where they could do more to protect basic worker rights and improve the work environment for thousands employed in this industry. It does this while also acknowledging the fact that some of these companies are currently engaged in positive initiatives to achieve these aims. The report employs a case study approach and is based on interviews and written inputs from representatives of unions and other civil society organisations as well as the companies involved.

The variations of private management are that you do not go to reception upon checkin as the reception desk is run by Peppers. Instead you either self checkin at your leisure specific details provided upon booking or you can be met upon arrival. You may also notice that there is no telephone in your apartment and you do not have a mini bar. You pay for items such as drinks from the bar, restaurant meals or in house massages at the time of service. With these minor variations you can expect to save over $100 per night compared with Peppers or travel agent tariffs and you will be staying in one of the most desirable apartments in the complex.

New Song: Listen to Alyxx Dione's "Chingalinga" Featuring Jason Derulo
Tue, 07 Apr 2015 09:54:47
Jason Derulo Videos
RCA Records and Future History Records' up-and-coming superstar artist Alyxx Dione released her first single "Chingalinga," featuring current superstar Jason Derulo.
"Chingalinga" was written by Future History label head Jason Derulo, with some other co-writers. The full-length from the sexy and talented Alyxx Dione will be out later this year. So that's good news and something to look forward to, for sure.
Who is Alyxx Dione? We, and Jason Derulo, are glad you asked.
She is a 22-year-old singer and songwriter who began writing and recording her own material when she was just 11! #Ambition.
Alyxx Dione is also the first artist signed to Future History, a newly-launched label headed up by Derulo and his manager Frank Harris. Alyxx is currently in the studio working on her debut album. This is the first taste of what we can expect. Huzzah!
Now, about "Chingalinga?"
On the song, Dione sorta sounds like Beyonce x Jennifer Lopez. The song is that kind of a danceable diva banger! She might have the keys to the pop kingdom, which were handed over to her by Derulo, since he rules dat roost.
Listen to (and love) the track below.
Jason Derulo may have a hit artist on his capable hands! You can pick up "Chingalinga" at iTunes.

Siliconera - Sony Computer Entertainment Japan is giving Soul Sacrifice another push by giving a boxed copy of the demo with all PlayStation Vita purchases starting on January 23.
Wtf? What about early purchasers? I want to play the dang demo... :\ Lame move there Sony, I know you're trying to sell more, but at least make it so that people who already own a Vita can give it a go as well.
Nooo! I want an actual demo.. Don't make it like the MGS demo.. Nooo! Doesn't really matter to me though I am being dramatic.
There are just some games you don't even have to play to know they will be amazing. I know Soul Sacrifice will be one of them, if I had a blast with Ragnarok Odyssey there is no doubt I will have much more fun with Soul Sacrifice.
Sucks but I am still buying the game regardless. Damn you Japan you get the demo.. I am too lazy to make a Japanese account.
I would purchase a new vita just to have a retail version of a demo. Hopefully SCEA will do something like this with Killzone or another high profile title.

Electromagnetic fields and public health: mobile phones
Fact sheet N°193
June 2011
Key facts
Mobile phone use is ubiquitous with an estimated 4.6 billion subscriptions globally.
The electromagnetic fields produced by mobile phones are classified by the International Agency for Research on Cancer as possibly carcinogenic to humans.
Studies are ongoing to more fully assess potential long-term effects of mobile phone use.
WHO will conduct a formal risk assessment of all studied health outcomes from radio frequency fields exposure by 2012.
Mobile or cellular phones are now an integral part of modern telecommunications. In many countries, over half the population use mobile phones and the market is growing rapidly. At the end of 2009, there were an estimated 4.6 billion subscriptions globally. In some parts of the world, mobile phones are the most reliable or the only phones available.
Given the large number of mobile phone users, it is important to investigate, understand and monitor any potential public health impact.
Mobile phones communicate by transmitting radio waves through a network of fixed antennas called base stations. Radiofrequency waves are electromagnetic fields, and unlike ionizing radiation such as X-rays or gamma rays, can neither break chemical bonds nor cause ionization in the human body.
Exposure levels
Mobile phones are low-powered radiofrequency transmitters, operating at frequencies between 450 and 2700 MHz with peak powers in the range of 0.1 to 2 watts. The handset only transmits power when it is turned on. The power (and hence the radiofrequency exposure to a user) falls off rapidly with increasing distance from the handset. A person using a mobile phone 30–40 cm away from their body – for example when text messaging, accessing the Internet, or using a "hands free" device – will therefore have a much lower exposure to radiofrequency fields than someone holding the handset against their head.
In addition to using "hands-free" devices, which keep mobile phones away from the head and body during phone calls, exposure is also reduced by limiting the number and length of calls. Using the phone in areas of good reception also decreases exposure as it allows the phone to transmit at reduced power. The use of commercial devices for reducing radiofrequency field exposure has not been shown to be effective.
Mobile phones are often prohibited in hospitals and on airplanes, as the radiofrequency signals may interfere with certain electro-medical devices and navigation systems.
Are there any health effects?
A large number of studies have been performed over the last two decades to assess whether mobile phones pose a potential health risk. To date, no adverse health effects have been established as being caused by mobile phone use.
Short-term effects
Tissue heating is the principal mechanism of interaction between radiofrequency energy and the human body. At the frequencies used by mobile phones, most of the energy is absorbed by the skin and other superficial tissues, resulting in negligible temperature rise in the brain or any other organs of the body.
A number of studies have investigated the effects of radiofrequency fields on brain electrical activity, cognitive function, sleep, heart rate and blood pressure in volunteers. To date, research does not suggest any consistent evidence of adverse health effects from exposure to radiofrequency fields at levels below those that cause tissue heating. Further, research has not been able to provide support for a causal relationship between exposure to electromagnetic fields and self-reported symptoms, or "electromagnetic hypersensitivity".
Long-term effects
Epidemiological research examining potential long-term risks from radiofrequency exposure has mostly looked for an association between brain tumours and mobile phone use. However, because many cancers are not detectable until many years after the interactions that led to the tumour, and since mobile phones were not widely used until the early 1990s, epidemiological studies at present can only assess those cancers that become evident within shorter time periods. However, results of animal studies consistently show no increased cancer risk for long-term exposure to radiofrequency fields.
Several large multinational epidemiological studies have been completed or are ongoing, including case-control studies and prospective cohort studies examining a number of health endpoints in adults. The largest retrospective case-control study to date on adults, Interphone, coordinated by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), was designed to determine whether there are links between use of mobile phones and head and neck cancers in adults. The international pooled analysis of data gathered from 13 participating countries found no increased risk of glioma or meningioma with mobile phone use of more than 10 years. There are some indications of an increased risk of glioma for those who reported the highest 10% of cumulative hours of cell phone use, although there was no consistent trend of increasing risk with greater duration of use. The researchers concluded that biases and errors limit the strength of these conclusions and prevent a causal interpretation. Based largely on these data, IARC has classified radiofrequency electromagnetic fields as possibly carcinogenic to humans (Group 2B), a category used when a causal association is considered credible, but when chance, bias or confounding cannot be ruled out with reasonable confidence.
While an increased risk of brain tumors is not established, the increasing use of mobile phones and the lack of data for mobile phone use over time periods longer than 15 years warrant further research of mobile phone use and brain cancer risk. In particular, with the recent popularity of mobile phone use among younger people, and therefore a potentially longer lifetime of exposure, WHO has promoted further research on this group. Several studies investigating potential health effects in children and adolescents are underway.
Exposure limit guidelines
Radiofrequency exposure limits for mobile phone users are given in terms of Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) – the rate of radiofrequency energy absorption per unit mass of the body. Currently, two international bodies 1, 2 have developed exposure guidelines for workers and for the general public, except patients undergoing medical diagnosis or treatment. These guidelines are based on a detailed assessment of the available scientific evidence.
WHO'S response
In response to public and governmental concern, WHO established the International Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) Project in 1996 to assess the scientific evidence of possible adverse health effects from electromagnetic fields. WHO will conduct a formal risk assessment of all studied health outcomes from radiofrequency fields exposure by 2012. In addition, and as noted above, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), a WHO specialized agency, has reviewed the carcinogenic potential of radiofrequency fields, as from mobile phones in May 2011.
WHO also identifies and promotes research priorities for radiofrequency fields and health to fill gaps in knowledge through its research agendas.
WHO develops public information materials and promotes dialogue among scientists, governments, industry and the public to raise the level of understanding about potential adverse health risks of mobile phones.
1 International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP). Statement on the "Guidelines for limiting exposure to time-varying electric, magnetic and electromagetic fields (up to 300 GHz)", 2009.
2 Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). IEEE standard for safety levels with respect to human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz, IEEE Std C95.1, 2005.
From the WHO announcement above "The use of commercial devices for reducing radiofrequency field exposure has not been shown to be effective." Waveshield has never maintained since its inception that we alter, modify, harmonize or otherwise render harmless the non ionizing radiation from cell and cordless telephones unlike all of our competition that sell stickers, buttons and cases. What the Waveshield does is block the radiation from coming out of the earpiece which then passes into the ear, through the ear canal and on into the brain. IN 2002 when the FTC in the USA shut down all of the manufacturers marketing bogus anti radiation devices they allowed Waveshield to remain in business until today as our test results from accredited FCC labs showed that what we claimed was in fact the truth. We will continue to educate the public about the potential dangers and health risks and exactly what needs to be done to reduce the risk.

Smallpox (cont.)
What Physicians Treat Smallpox?
A person may initially see a primary-care provider (PCP) such as a family practitioner, internist, or child's pediatrician, or an emergency-medicine specialist in a hospital's emergency department, but infectious-disease specialists must be consulted, along with state, federal, and local health authorities.
What Tests Do Physicians Use to Diagnose Smallpox?
Initial diagnosis of smallpox is most likely based on a history and physical examination findings; any person suspected of having the disease needs to be isolated, people caring for the patient should use strict isolation-barrier techniques to protect themselves and others from exposure and local, state and national health authorities should be informed immediately. Other procedures (quarantine and vaccinations of people who contacted the patient) will be done if smallpox is diagnosed (see below).

In the Dolomites menu you will find some dishes that best represent this territory.
Speck, the legendary cured meat of the eastern Alps, meets toma from the alpine pastures in a delicious appetizer, thus creating our intriguing skewers.
The first course is a homemade thick-cut egg pasta typical of the mountains, topped with a distinctive porcini mushroom sauce which, thanks to the intense flavour of pristine forests, brings the rich taste of mountain cuisine to the dish.
Venison, hunted here since ancient times, gives main courses the aromas and culinary wisdom of the mountain hut kitchen, where there was plenty of time to cook deep, tasty stews best.
We could not let you miss out on a dessert whose taste is as rich as its preparation is sophisticated: hazelnut cake with gianduja (hazelnut chocolate) cream, a sensory experience that never fails to move dessert lovers.
For this menu we chose a wine that gives its best throughout the meal, a wine connected to this land that has withstood the intensity of the flavors it has accompanied for centuries.
