– Amazon to begin testing same-day delivery drones in Cambridge (Guardian, Nov 12, 2014):
Online retailer expands R&D operations in England, two years after buying Cambridge-based startup Evi Technologies
Amazon is planning to test drones in Cambridge, England, as the battle to offer consumers same-day deliveries heats up.
The US company announced with considerable fanfare late last year that it was considering using drones as a way of dramatically reducing the time it takes to deliver orders to customers. At the time there was speculation that the move was little more than a publicity stunt. But Amazon said in July that it had sought permission from the US Federal Aviation Administration to test drones that could fly as fast as 50 miles per hour for up to 30 minutes at a time to deliver packages weighing up to 2.3kg (5lb).

Becky Anderson interviews Tzipi livni Fmr. Israeli Foreign Minister, and Ahmed Youssef (father of the apostate), Deputy Foreign Minister of Hamas on the flotilla fiasco. Good example of the way anchors feel they have the right to interrupt and challenge Israeli spokespeople, but suddenly lose their swagger when they deal with Arab interviewees.
Octavia Nasr, CNN's special consultant on Arab culture takes Arab rage for granted (no irony, she seems to share it), and then discusses how the pro-flotilla folks twitted around the world, taking the lead from the hands of a political leadership that is slow and impotent. It's hard to avoid the sense that she's rooting for these folks. This is just the kind of explanation the West needs.
highest definition available, you can see soldier being swarmed with sticks, stabbed near a door, and a soldier with face wound.
taken from above.
taken from boat alongside before dawn. you can see one soldier thrown down to the lower deck, lots of sticks beating soldiers.
This is a perfect example of bad reporting, from the opening characterizations to the nature of the interview process, to the total imbalance of presenting sides. One could hardly expect someone coming away from this piece by Rosemary Church to understand what's going on. Planning both a VEA and a DWM for this, so comments welcome.
Jim Clancy hosts a debate between J-Street's Jeremy Ben-Ami and the American Jewish Committee's Ben Cohen. Clancy repeatedly interrupts Cohen so rudely that he was forced later to apologize by his superiors at CNN. In the meantime, it's a fine example of how anchors show their true colors when they see their favored figures getting a hard time.
The demonstrations against Facebook, like those against the Danish Cartoons, included death threats. Would you even know that from this account? Ali Maqbool makes it (vaguely) about the problem of (potential) censorship. Very lightweight reporting, no hard questions.
Christiane Amanpour interviews Jeremy Ben Ami (J-Street) and David Harris (American Jewish Committee) on whether criticism of Israel is anti-Semitic. She interrupts constantly and repeatedly reveals what she thinks. This is a professional journalist? or an advocate for what she believes will bring peace?
Jim Clancy interviews Talal abu Rahmah, whose contributions to Pallywood and staging of the al Durah libel have been extensively chronicled here. Clancy makes no mention of the controversy. Instead he fawns all over Talal, his good friend ("You are a journalist, a respected journalist...") and presents him as a model to aspiring journalists ("Making a difference in Gaza by telling the truth.") How can journalism learn from its mistakes when it deals with them like this?
American media is far less interested US targeted killings than Israeli, but finally events in Pakistan have prompted some concern about the "once secret program." Here CNN tackles the issue in a tepid sort of way. No one challenges the spokesman who claims that 1/3 of the 1000 casualties are civilian (well-known figures claim 700 civilians killed for 14 targets in Pakistan). No scenes of Pakistani civilians, no interviews with outraged Pakistani officials, just suits discussing whether the CIA should be ordering these strikes. Imagine CNN reporters being told by an Israeli official that TKs are "the only game in town." Double standards, anyone?
Barghouti tries every way he can to apologize for the Palestinian's hard line on not negotiating with Israel. Sackur is a tough interviewer, even though he doesn't catch Barghouti on his shakey history. When Sackur challenges Barghouti that this new intransigence is a way of pressuring Obama into forcing Israel to make concessions, Barghouti says, "Yes. why not?" Sackur's knowledge of the past seems limited, and never even mentions the long history of Palestinian rejection of Israeli offers, including the violence of the second intifada. A study of demopathy, and the relative weakness of a Western response poorly informed (or unwilling to raise the details) about Palestinian intransigence for the last 60 years. Israel is thus responsible for Palestinians not getting their share of the 1947 division; Israel will be responsible for the failure of the "two-state" solution; Palestinian struggle has been "95% non-violent." Sackur's performance is considerably weaker than his interview on the same themes with Nabil Shaath (soon to appear as a "Dialogue with the Media."
Dateline from Abu Dabi's "Gulf Festival of Thinkers": Kate Durian, Abdul Khallek Abdullah, Francis Matthew, Muhammad al Naqbi. Obama's extending of the hand of friendship to the Muslims. Obama gets a B, because of Israeli intransigence. The host assumes that "land for peace" is the only way to go. He doesn't even notice that his Arab guests don't even share that much of a view (right of return), and that for them, Obama's pressure should be entirely on Israel (settlements!) whose government is "about as far right wing as you can imagine." No one is exposed to, or discusses Arab intransigence. Not a word about Arab problems since the Arab-Israeli problem is a "touchstone issue" for the Arab world. Another case of Western journalists enabling Arab use of anti-Zionism as what Irshad Manji calls the great "Weapon of Mass Distraction." If this is the "great thinkers" the BBC can come up with, no wonder the Arab world is in such bad shape, and the West understands so little.
Jim Clancy and Paula Hancocks do a story on water, first presenting the Amnesty International Report accusing Israel of cutting off water and throttling the West Bank supply, and leaving Gaza with little water 90-95% of which is contaminated. Final word given to Israelis who reject every aspect of the report. Palestinian narrative delivered by Human Rights NGO and CNN reporters, Israelis left to say, "no I don't beat my wife."
Here's Goldstone claiming virtually none of his critics have read his report, especially the Obama administration with whom "I'd like to engage." Amazingly, the interviewer, Shihab Rattansi, doesn't even challenge him. Goldstone even refers to ius in bellum [sic!]. Discusses Abed Rabbo incident. Not a word about Hamas.
Mia Farrow comes to "put a face" on the poor children of Gaza and the "Palestinian people in general" and serves as a mouthpiece for Hamas anti-Zionist propaganda, with an assist from Rosemary Church who never questions her figures (1600 dead in OCL, of which 353 children), or her claims that Israeli bombs were laced with "phosphorous stuff." Not a word about Hamas' contribution to the suffering of their own people. The solution: let's all be more compassionate. And Hamas?
Steven Sackur interviews Nabil Sha'ath on the negotiations with Israel. Sha'ath finds every excuse in the book to justify the hardline stance of the Palestinians on negotiations -- not until Netanyahu freezes settlements. At one point, an exaspreated Sackur says, "Why aren't you in Hamas? You sound like them." Sha'ath's techniques are very similar to Al Zahar's to another Hardtalk host, Tim Sebastien. But again, like Sebastien, Sackur reveals only a portion of the problem by letting Sha'ath make claims that do not stand up to close examination.
Jeremy Bowen reports on passage of the Goldstone Report in UN, then the anchor interviews him by phone. Although Goldstone had expressed sadness at the one-sidedness of the report the previous day to journalists in Geneva, now he has backtracked completely. The anchor, who seems to know about the earlier remarks, gives Goldstone every opportunity to express his previous attitude, but never embarrasses him with an explicit mention.

A friend took me to HVAF and the healing began, in spite of myself. They saved my life...there is no better way to describe the experience. There are tears welling up as I'm typing this, as I know I would be dead if it were not for them. Semper Fi.

Hey everyone! It's been a little while since I have blogged about any of my couponing shopping trips. I've still been shopping but have been so busy I haven't had a chance to share them with you. I was pretty proud of my trip yesterday and thought I'm definitely posting this one. =)
Long story short I was able to purchase $96.58 worth of groceries for $21.05! Making it a savings of 78%. How did I do it?
Saving Star and Checkout 51 were used along with coupons to make this happen. If you haven't heard of Saving Star you really should check It out. Saving Star is my favorite app to use. You don't even have to have a cell to use it, you can track your savings online. Checkout 51 is a mobile app and you upload receipts of certain products to get money back. The only thing I dont' like about checkout 51 is you have to wait until you reach $20 until payout which can take some time.
My purchase included:
- 4 Mrs. Smith's Pies that were on a 3 day sale for $1.99. I had 4 coupons that doubled to $1.00 off of each so final price was .99 each!
- Essential everyday Pizza $2.49 used a EE weekly coupon for $1.00 and payed $1.49.
- Essential Everyday Garlic Bread on sale for $1.79 used a EE weekly coupon for $1 off making it only .79!
- 2 Packages of Perdue chicken nuggets were BOGO this week so got two packages for $3.99 for both!
- 2 Large Fresh Express Salads- I had 2 coupons for FREE product so these were absolutely FREE.
- 3 packages of Viva everday price $1.99 each. Used 3 coupons worth .75 which doubled making them .49 a roll!
- 6 cans of Pillsbury jr rolls on sale for 10/$10 used 2 coupons for $1 off of 3, making them .66 each.
- 1 Oikos Greek Yogurt- This was a FRIDAY FREEBIE through Saving Star- Every Friday they list a freebie, you pay for it that day but you get it back making it FREE.
- Kosher Salt $1.29 had a printable coupon for Coupon.com for .50 off which doubled making it .29!
- 4 Prego Alfredo Sauce on sale for 2.00 each. Used 4 .75 off coupons which doubled making them only .50 each!
- 4 boxes of Crackers; on sale for $1.99 each. Used 4 $1.00 of each but also used 2 store coupons from the Shaws Monopoly game making 2 of the boxes only .74 each the other 2 boxes .99 each.
- The Purex detergent was on sale for $3.49 and the Renuzits on sale for $1 each. I did not have coupons for these items but the reason behind buying them was I only needed to spend $5.02 more on Henkel products through Saving Star to make $5 back. 😉
I paid $28.45 out of pocket with a savings at Shaws of 71%. I am getting back $6.40 from Saving Star ($5 for the Henkels products, $1 for the yogurt and .40 for buying the rolls) and $1.00 back from Checkout 51 from buying a box of Triscuits. Final price for everything $21.05 with the savings of 78%! =)
That was one of my favorite trips. =)
Thanks for visiting WEMAKE7! =)

Pet health insurance can definitely be worth the investment if you take the time to select the right policy. Pet health insurance helps to cover all of your pet's medical costs including ongoing checkups and shots as well as emergency medical care. As your pet gets older and becomes more likely to get ill, you may find that you make more use of your pet health insurance. However even young pets can require a lot of medical care (for example, dogs that frequently chew things up may need surgery for getting items lodged in their stomachs). If you're the kind of person who regularly takes your pet in for the care that they need (which good pet owners do) then the insurance investment can definitely be worth it.
I've got a hub that outlines four reasons to get pet insurance (http://hubpages.com/hub/Four-Reasons-for-Pet-Healt... It explains that there are soooo many different reasons a pet may need to go to the vet and each time this costs you money. Each visit can be cheaper with pet insurance.
As with any other type of insurance, though, it's important to look at all of the different plans and their costs to make sure that you get the right amount of pet insurance coverage at a fair and affordable price.

It's All about WordPress
It starts with the best CMS platform on the market. We build all of our websites on this platform because not only is it user friendly in the end but there are more plug-ins than you can imagine.

Also, there are a lot of smart SEO folks out there that have created great SEO Tools that are free or cheap for you to use.
Where Would You be Without a Great Theme?
We believe in using great products and that is why we always put a great SEO friendly theme on top of WordPress and go from there. A well done theme is like a really nice suit. If it is built well it will just make everyone look better. This is why we build the bulk of our websites using only the best themes on the market.
Sitemaps, Navigation, Images..oh My
It is critical that your website have updated sitemaps that talk to Google. We will install a WordPress Plug-in that will help your website talk to Google better. All that you will need is to set up an analytics account to make it all work.
Navigation is not just a way for people to find your pages but it is the map to your website. We will prompt you to really think out your websites navigation in advance because how you structure things now will effect how well your SEO does later. We will provide you with some tips and ideas around the idea of a Silo navigation system.
Images not only make a website more appealing but they too can serve a great purpose for SEO. You want to make sure that you are naming your images appropriately and that way they are doing double duty efforts for you.
When we get started on your project we will dive into these issues and many more. Please contact us by using whatever method below that you prefer.

Oak Timber: Buying the Best
So you have looked everywhere on the Internet and you still haven't found the right supplier for you. This is a common problem that many people have when they are looking for oak timber. Finding a high-quality oak timber supplier is not always easy. Sure you can find many different ones around town or even outside of your area will deliver to you but finding a good one, know that it's pretty difficult to do. Many people just give up and just do business with anyone they find seems to be halfway decent. Sometimes that works out for them but sometimes it does not. When it does not work out for them bad things happen. Their delivery is late, the quality of the oak timber is not up to par, working with that company is not ideal and communication is far from ideal.
This is why it is worth taking the time to figure out truly want to do business with. We know it is not as easy as deciding who you want to do business with because you first need to find out who has what you're looking for with all the other attributes that you require. Well, doing this takes performing a little bit of research. This type of research is not that difficult but is the type of research that you probably have done before you are looking for some other type of service-based company. You probably have read reviews and ratings from a company, you're probably requested references, you have probably spent time on the telephone talking to a company to see if they have what you want and if they are the type of people you want to do business with. You have done all of this before so when it comes to oak timber and looking for a supplier the game plan does not change at all.
Now, knowing the ideal plan of action and knowing the game plan for finding a quality oak timber supplier you need to get started. You need to go ahead and do this research and find the best oak timber supplier that you can find. One way to not have to spend too much time in research mode is by clicking through to the link that we have left in this article and following that website to the perfect oak timber supplier for you.

Was gonna do Violet -- we are bringing our two daughters who are 9 and 6, so nothing too fancy or outre (at this point, "fancy" to them means filet mignon). But Violet is closed Mondays; Joe's is too cramped; Jiraffe's food too complex.
Our youngest has a tendency to get up and walk around the table in search of an open and willing lap; neither of them eat very much either. We just were at Ocean Ave seafood for in-law's anniversary dinner and that worked out well (though the food and service have gone downhill).
Suggestions? Is Nook "nice" enough for a birthday dinner? Would 2117 be a good choice (I've only been there for lunch)?
Thanks in advance.

I cannot do anyone online mal-ware scans (like kasperby) because the computer won't view those pages. (though it will go to any other page just fine).

We live in the property and work during the week. If the surf is up on the weekend, our presence may be limited!
My name is Karise and I am originally from Canada. I now reside on the Gold Coast, Australia with my husband, Brad and our ridiculously intelligent dog, Ollie. We have traveled extensively (and are always wanting to do MORE!) and love surfing, the beach, Crossfit (yes, it's true), snowboarding and pretty much anything that involves getting outside!

The question
How written in stone are the rules of rug size? I have a small, punchy kilim rug that looks fantastic tucked under my coffee table. It's too small to reach the legs of my sofa (or even sit on), but I love the hit of colour it brings to the room. Can it stay?
The answer
Rules on size are bendable but not breakable. I get the hit of colour and that the rug looks fantastic. But if it just fits under the coffee table, I hope that the table at least has a glass top for viewing.
Leave it, but anchor it with a larger carpet, such as a sisal, underneath, thereby mitigating the "flood pants" effect. In fact, a layering of carpets can make a room appear larger. I prefer a border of wood, then a large linen carpet with an Aubusson area rug on top. I try to choose an area rug that is sizable so that it doesn't get lost in the room. It sounds like your rug could just as easily be a wall hanging. Remember that art is in the eye, not the feet, of the beholder.

Something Special
Hi everyone, I hope that you've all had a lovely weekend, I haven't had time to
craft so my post today is something that my Hubby made for Mitzi's last Birthday,
I know that was almost a year ago now but I never ever got around to blogging
about it. He made it using Mitzi's gorgeous Aurora Wings image which is called
He made this wooden sculpture using his scroll saw and bamboo wood, he then
waxed & polished the finished piece before mounting it and then he felted the base.
He's so clever & very patient (unlike me LOL) I think this he said that this was
his third attempt because of how intricate the cuts were, and on one occasion the
blade jumped and ruined all what he had done :(
Those of you who know me or those of you who are regular visitors to my blog
will remember my post of the wooden sculpture of our Daughter Leanne
I'm off now to finish off my ironing then maybe I will have some
time later to craft :)

It's been years since I've been and I keep missing it the last few years, I remember it taking place in late June or early July. They'd serve up all types of grilled meats and homemade wine.

Tomb Raider 15th Anniversary color by logicfunWatch
©2012-2017 logicfun
I've seen quite a few colors done of this pic and this is by far the best. The color swatches are perfect. You actually made the drawing stand out by using more natural muted shades. The water turned out amazing as did the sky. I think you did an awesome job at making this look how it was intended. If I was to pick anything to change, I would say... darken the hair just a bit. It's too burnt sienna, when it should be more burnt umber. LOL but that's just my opinion as I like dark brunettes better. Well done.
The Artist thought this was FAIR
2 out of 2 deviants thought this was fair.
Beautiful coloring!
oh j'aime beaucoup celui ciiiii!! très réussi!
Nice my friend! better the colors than the drawing itself (even if I love Randy's job)
nice colouring!!

It appears that Mercedes-Benz will get the second spot as the world's second-largest manufacturer of luxury cars in 2015, at least according to the German newspaper Handelsblatt who cited forecasts from the Center of Automotive Research at the university of Duisburg-Essen in Germany.
For those who don't know, Mercedes-Benz lost the second place to Audi last year, but Center of Automotive Research (CAR) forecasts that Audi will sell 1.63 million vehicles while Mercedes-Benz will sell 1.68 million. Bmw will remain the leader according to CAR forecast with sell 1.76 million vehicles in 2015. Still, Mercedes-Benz CEO Dieter Zetsche made clear company's intentions to recapture the first position from Bmw among the luxury-carmakers by the end of the decade.
Bmw overtook Mercedes-Benz back in 2005 and since them it remained the leader. Back in 2011, Mercedes-Benz sold 1.26 million cars and SUVs, while Audi sold 1.3 million and Bmw 1.38 million. In order to get the second position, Mercedes-Benz wants to introduce 10 completely new models on the market by 2015. Apparently Mercedes-Benz wants to sell over 1.6 million vehicles by 2015. This number was surpassed by Bmw and MINI in 2011.
The bad news is that Mercedes-Benz will see a very hard competition as Audi s not taking the challenge lying down. Audi aims to sell over 2 million vehicles by 2020 and wants to overtake Bmw.
Audi needs to boost its sales volume in the United States in order to achieve that number as Mercedes-Benz and Bmw sell more than twice as many cars as Audi. In order to boost U.S. sales, Audi will build a plant in Mexico and wants to increase the number of models offered in the U.S. from 16 to as many as 27. Production of the Audi Q5 will begin in Mexico in 2016. [source: Autonews]

Rushes are evergreen, with a texture similar to a grass. Ever heard the ditty "sedges have edges and rushes are round"? This is describing the round blades/stems of a rush, each pushing directly from the soil with no branching. The small flower/seed heads occur at the tips of the stems.
Use in stormwater planters, rain gardens & bioswales:
Given rushes' tolerance of wet conditions and Portland's awareness around sustainable stormwater management, perhaps the most sought after use for rushes in the landscape is in any of the many stormwater features such as bioswales, green streets, rain gardens, and stormwater planters bordering buildings. The main function of these features is to filter and disperse our rain events so that the water ending up in our surface waters and groundwaters is cleaner and less impactful with erosion.
Juncus does this well as a high water user and also, as a many stemmed plant, is adept at slowing water down and allowing sediment pollution to settle out. Juncus are by far the most used plant in the City of Portland's green streets; however, they should by no means be only used as a monoculture. Juncus grow well with other wet-tolerant plants and look beautiful in mixed ecosystems. In larger municipal or industrial scale constructed wetlands (treating stormwater or wastewater), Juncus play an important phytoremediation role.
Use around Ponds:
Juncus is often a mainstay for planting at pond edges, anywhere from wet wicking soil to a water depth of 6-8". Planted in clumps and mixed with other native or ornamental pond edge plants, Juncus provides habitat for a variety of birds and frogs and other aquatic life.
Use in Container Plantings:
Juncus are fairly forgiving of a range of soil and moisture conditions, and they have a clumping and spiky architecture that looks great in mixed planters. If you are designing your planter by the "thrillers, fillers, and spillers" mantra, Juncus can be used as either central thrillers (tall vertical elements planted near the center of the pot) or background fillers (medium height space fillers in a ring around the central thriller). See below for descriptions of some of the ornamental varieties commonly available.
Other Cultural Uses:
Juncus stems are frequently used in modern basket weaving traditions around the world- making a variety of baskets, mats, cording, brushes/brooms, sieves, etc. The Latin root of Juncus means "to join, tie, or bind", in reference to these uses. There are medicinal uses for Juncus species in Eastern systems of healing. And long ago in ancient Egypt, the stiffer Juncus stems were used as writing implements.
Some varieties you can often find at Portland Nursery include:
Juncus effuses
This species is one of the most common and hybridizes easily. Sometimes also known as 'field rush' and is often able to grow in wet meadows or even drier fields.
Juncus effuses 'Goldstrike'
Juncus effuses 'Goldstrike' bears a distinctive gold stripe runs the full length of each stem, accenting the vertical energy. Approximately 18" tall.
Juncus effuses 'Spiralis'
This variety has tightly coiled/spiraled stems that may uncoil somewhat as they grow, and they tend to grow in all directions to 14-18" tall, looking like wild Medusa hair. This growth habit can look extremely interesting in containers but possibly 'messier' in the landscape. Deer resistant. Full sun.
Juncus patens
One of the few species permitted in Portland public stormwater systems, perhaps because of its reliably clumping habit.
Juncus patens 'Elk's Blue'
A variety with narrower and bluish colored stems, introduced by the California nursery San Marcos Growers. Tightly clumped and growing 18-24" tall. One of the rushes tolerant of dry and/or shady landscapes.
Juncus inflex 'Blue Arrow'
Another light green or gray blue colored variety. A wispier texture. Can be grown in the typical wet conditions but is also drought-tolerant once established.
Juncus pallidus
Also called pale or giant rush. Strong, thick stems. Sometimes salt-tolerant.
Juncus ensifolius
A native wetland species with uncharacteristic flat blades/stems, making it look like a mini iris. Typically only 8-12" tall.
Facts: Juncus
Family: Juncaceae
Genus: Juncus
Common Name: Rush
Origin: Juncus are widely naturalized across the world, and specific origins are often confusing. They are considered native to Asia, Europe, Africa, and the Americas and more frequently occurring in temperate (vs tropical) biomes.
Culture: Rushes grow in a wide variety of environments. They will usually look best in consistently moist soils; they tolerate shallow inundation, as with pond edges or stormwater planters (see discussion below), or flowing water, along streams. But many of them also grow well in fields or in mixed container plantings. For the most part, they will prefer sun, though partial shade will be tolerated fairly easily. They also tolerate poor soil qualities.
Maintenance: Rushes need extremely minimal maintenance, and one of the horticultural mistakes often made with them is to prune them too much or to prune them like a grass. Though rushes look like grasses, they cannot be treated the same. They are evergreen and if mowed, they will never look quite as beautiful again.
If rushes experience a dry spell and many of the stems turn brown, the best approach is to meticulously prune out entire dead stems and only dead stems. Most newer growth will occur at the outer edge of the clump. If this should result in a large dead space in the center, the rush can be dug up, divided, and replanted for more aesthetic clump architecture.
Though rushes do spread through rhizomes, they are largely clumping and rarely present enough aggression to bother controlling, in the Pacific Northwest. The small flower/seed heads are quite ornamental and again, are not normally aggressive around here.
Pests and Diseases: Rushes are relatively pest and disease free, and very few animals will seek them out as a preferred food. Even in a pond environment, they seem not to be a favored food of nutria- an animal that will eat almost everything. I would count the weed-whacker or indiscriminate pruner as one of the biggest 'pest' dangers to a rush (see maintenance).

Will the New Jersey Devils make a deal to obtain a top-scoring forward before the NHL's April 3rd trade deadline? Could defenseman Andy Greene be on the block?
Rich Chere, the Devils' reporter for the Star-Ledger, seems to think so. In an article for the newspaper earlier this week, Chere wrote at length about the possibility of the 30 year old being shopped around in order to obtain a player to help ease the team's scoring woes.
The Michigan native has two goals and six assists in nineteen games for the Devils this season, but he has also been one of the most consistent and reliable defenseman on the ice even during the team's recent slide.
Greene was signed as a free agent with the Devils in April of 2006 after playing college hockey at Miami University.
After six seasons on the blue line, Green's ice time as well as his game has been steadily improving.
The combination of Greene and the young Swede Adam Larsson has stayed relatively untouched by Coach Pete DeBoer.
Greene has two years remaining on the four year, $12 million deal he signed on July 1st, 2011.
While trade rumors may have been a distraction in the early years, for Greene, those days have passed.
"That's the business," he said in an interview with the Star-Ledger. "I know any day you can be gone. I don't have a no-trade, no-movement or any of those, so I know it can happen. I know Lou is going to do what ever is best for the team that he sees fit. If that's it, that's it. I can't argue about that. It's not something I put a lot of energy or focus into."
Naturally, you have to give something to get something, but one would hope general manager Lou Lamoriello will leave the steady blueliner where he is.
The free agent signings of Anton Volchenkov and Henrik Tallinder haven't brought about the results they were supposed to. Perhaps they should be shopped around instead.

Phobias aren't just extreme fears; they are irrational fears. People with phobias realize their fears do not make sense but often facing, or even thinking about facing, the feared object or situation brings on a panic attack or severe anxiety beyond control. Linguistically, phobia is defined as the unrelenting fear of a situation, activity, or thing that causes one to want to avoid it. There are three types of phobias: social phobia (fear of public speaking, meeting new people, or other social situations), agoraphobia (fear of being outside), and specific phobias (fear of particular items or situations). Many people experience the last ones; intense, irrational fears of certain things or situations – dogs, closed-in places, heights, escalators, tunnels, highway driving, water, flying, and even injuries involving blood. So here we're bringing you all about phobias: causes, symptoms and most common types. Join us as we explore the fears and set yourself free!!
What are the causes and risk factors for phobias?
While there is no one specific known cause for phobias, it is thought that phobias run in families, are influenced by culture and how one is parented, and can be triggered by life events. Immediate family members of people with phobias are about three times more likely to also suffer from a phobia than those who do not have such a family history. People whose parents either were overly protective or were distant in raising them may be at more risk of developing phobias. Phobia sufferers have been found to be more likely to manage stress by avoiding the stressful situation and by having difficulty minimizing the intensity of the fearful situation. Another possible contributor to the development of phobias is classical conditioning. As it relates to phobias, in classical conditioning, a person responds to something frightening by generalizing the fear of that specific object or situation to more generalized objects or situations. For example, an individual may respond to a real threat by one dog to a fear of all dogs.
What are the symptoms of phobias?
Symptoms of phobias often involve having a panic attack — in that they include feelings of panic, dread, or terror, despite recognition that those feelings are excessive in relationship to any real danger — as well as physical symptoms like shaking, sweating, trouble thinking clearly, nausea, rapid heartbeat, trouble breathing, and an overwhelming desire to escape the situation that is causing the phobic reaction. Also, extreme measures are sometimes taken to avoid or escape the situation.
How can people deal with phobias?
Ways that phobia sufferers can work toward overcoming their fears include talking about their fears, refraining from avoiding situations they find stressful, imagining themselves facing their fears (visualization), and making positive self-statements like, "I will be OK." In fact, when self-help approaches are combined with brief psychotherapy, people with phobias may achieve significant improvement in symptoms.
1- Bugs, Mice, Snakes, and Bats (Arachnophobia).
They're unpredictable, creepy-crawly, and possibly poisonous – who wouldn't be afraid? Spiders are the most common phobia. The fear of spiders is close to the top of our common phobias list. This phobia, known as arachnophobia is usually in the domain of women as 50% of them are terrified of spiders while only 10% of men are affected. The extent of this phobia can vary with some people having a mild form of this fear while others will panic even if they see a picture of a spider.
2- Heights (Altophobia).
We're afraid of them because we can't fly and we could fall. These are reasonable reasons for being anxious at the top of cliffs! Do you have a fear of heights? If so, then you're one of the millions of people worldwide who suffer from this fear one way or another. In fact, its so common that almost everyone has been affected by it at some stage in their lives & this is why it makes it to the top of our common phobias list. Most people who are affected by the fear of heights phobia will instinctively avoid all places where height is involved. Some will have a severe form of this phobia and will even avoid going up a few feet on a ladder. The thing is that you can get by without this fear having a major impact on your life. This is the reason why so many just live with it. However, wouldn't it be better to just rid yourself of this fear once and for all? Wouldn't life be far better without having to make excuses to your friends that you can't go because you know there's height involved.
3- Water (Hydrophobia).
Fear of water can be natural or acquired due to a near-drowning experience.
4- Public Transportation (Publiphobia).
We feel more vulnerable in public crowded places because we have less control over other people or situations. Fleeing is much more difficult, making crowded places a source of anxiety.
5- Storms (Astrapophobia).
Hurricanes, tornados, earthquakes, and even thunderstorms can cause irrational anxiety – because we know the damage they can cause.
6- Closed Spaces (Claustrophobia).
Feeling trapped (imagine being in a coffin!) feels horrible. Evolutionary roots involve animals and traps or cages – our need to be free makes this a common phobia. this phobia is on our most common phobias list as there are many people who are affected by it. Its usually something we carry from childhood when we were locked into a small cupboard by one of our friends or some other confined space. It's a debilitating phobia because it can affect many areas of our lives from flying to small spaces at home or at work. Deep down, many people suffer from this common phobia.
7- Tunnels and Bridges (Gephyrophobia).
Going through a tunnel is similar to being in a closed space, which makes you feel vulnerable. The fear of small spaces is a common phobia.
8- Crowds (Sociophobia).
Similar to being on crowded public transportation, huge groups of people can make us feel trapped and vulnerable. This common phobia is related to the fear of public speaking.
9- Speaking in Public (Glossophobia).
We feel like we'll be judged, we worry what we look and sound like, and some of us have anxiety attacks. Its easy to see why this fear has made it into our common phobias list. We've all been there at some stage of our lives, whether its a speech you had to make at work or a wedding speech, you had to stand up in front of many people and talk, its one of our most common fears. Its a worst case scenario for many people, they worry about making a fool of themselves, they worry that they'll get it all wrong and everyone will start talking about them. This couldn't be further from the truth. This phobia is very common and so it goes without saying that most of the people in the audience are also affected by it. What this means is that everyone in the audience supports you, they want you to succeed & no one is going to laugh when if you make a cock up.
10- Fear of the Dark (darkophobia).
Being afraid of the dark is one of those fears which will forever be in the top list of common phobias. It's instinctive; we fear what we can't see. However, sometimes this fear can be so strong that it imprints onto our brain and we then have a full blown phobia. When we are young, we are naturally afraid of the dark, we won't go to sleep unless the nightlight is on or the door is kept a jar, you remember those days, right?.

Nearly 15 years ago Mike Hull oversaw the building of a plant for a Fortune 500 company in China and was instrumental in marketing the firm's nutritional products throughout the country. After his time in China, he came back to the US with the notion that the Chinese had gone too far down the road of capitalism to turn back, but they still had a lot to learn about the rule of law in property, both real and intellectual. He says that the best way to understand China's business prospects is to understand that the Chinese government will do anything they can to keep economic growth going strong. They need economic growth to keep the millions of peasants that have come in from the countryside working. Any long-term disruption in economic activity would throw people out of work and be a threat to the Chinese Communist Party.
Mike believes that among foreign companies, Procter and Gamble, (PG) caught on to the Chinese way of doing business earlier than most other companies. He remembers early on PG sold shampoo in small tubes that might resemble samples in the US. Yet in China these small tubes of shampoo, which were still expensive to the average Chinese worker, were a sign that a family was moving up in the world, and Chinese women by the millions bought the tubes of shampoo almost as a status symbol. Today P&G does about 20% of their business in Asia and it is growing very rapidly.
PG now does less than 50% of its business in the US, and that figure will continue to fall as developing world growth, albeit slowing, continues to outpace US growth.
The chart above compares the dividend yield of PG versus the yield of a 10-Year US Treasury bond over the last 20 years. We have been showing these "yield" charts because we believe they tell a powerful story: many high quality companies are very cheap.
Our research reveals that in the case of companies that consistently raise their dividends, which PG has done for over 50 consecutive years, the long-term growth of their prices will mirror the long-term growth of their dividends.
The chart shows that 20 years ago, investors expected PG's dividend to grow about 5% (8.5% - 3.5%) That is what it would have taken for PG's total return to equal a T-bond's yield ( 3.5% dividend yield plus 5% price growth).
Looking at the right hand side of the chart, we see today that investors are only requiring dividend growth of 1.5% for PG yield to equal a T-bond's yield. We realize, of course, that there is great fear in the market, which has driven bond yields down and PG's dividend yield up, but we think it is highly probable that PG will grow its dividend by more than 1.5% over the next few years. Especially since they are doing more and more business in China and the developing world.
We believe PG will continue to build their businesses in the fast growing parts of the world, and that they will likely increase their dividend in the range of 8%-10% over the next decade, just as they have over the last 50 years. If we are right, PG's total return over the next 10 years will dramatically outperform that of T-bonds.
We own the stock. This blog is for information only. Please consult your own financial advisor about P&G.

In his new book, investment expert Jim Jubak explores the "new normal" of market volatility. With remarkable insights into the zeitgeist of financial markets and the economy, Jubak combines the big macro trends with the more mundane aspects of life to depict why volatility is here to stay, why things are not going to get any calmer soon, and how you can make investing decisions to profit off this new reality.
He presents a unified picture that extends far beyond a narrow view of financial markets, exploring the consequences of using global central banks - the Federal Reserve, the Bank of Japan, the People's Bank of China, and the European Central Bank - as cash machines; the debt model of growth now used worldwide; and the demographics of aging and the coming war between the young and the old.
He also looks at social trends including the anxiety of affluence, particularly the mismatch between the guaranteed cost of education and the uncertainty of future earnings; the real estate "barbell" and the consequences of viewing a home as a financial asset and not simply a place to live; and energy, climate, water, and food insecurity.
Jubak's mission is to teach investors how to stay sane when people think the sky is falling. In showing what is causing all of this volatility, he provides practical solutions for how you can smartly respond, build a portfolio, and profit.

"loved it"
I really like Jubak's interpretation of the relationship between world events and the economy. I really enjoyed the second half of the book where he tied everything into investing strategies.
"Opens new doors understanding volatility"
Encyclopedic overview of many markets world-wide and how they have or haven't worked together. There are many thought provoking examples of how one change someplace undermines or promotes big changes all over the place. This resulting volatility opens doors for an investor to make money, in both up and down markets. Good training for the over cautious.
The reader is outstanding. Lots of numbers and complex content. His excitement with the material keeps you glued to the storyline.
The writing is not stuffy--actually pretty amusing from time-to-time. I'm glad I listened.
"Very timely; a good filter to view events through"
This book uses numbers as needed to make points, but I wouldn't call it "quantitative." Given the very wide swath of its views, alongside the vast incalculable complexity of all the "moving parts" of the global economy it surveys, it rightly stays mostly qualitative and a few thousand feet above-ground while focusing serially on various contemporary issues -- various global markets, emerging technologies, demographic shifts, etc. We will each, of course, assign our own weightings to our own projections about how these things will play -- the very essence of free markets. The use of numbers never feels excessive or confusing. I agree with what seems the premise, that to over-define these things would lose probative force, and rather, it is better to get one's mind limber to the possibilities of lots of variables (surveyed here) going more volatile. This is the more modest and intelligent approach, versus the phony prophetic futurist "how to survive the next [precisely over-defined event") type books, which are effectively a roll of the dice by the author who may luck into being right (or mislead a lot of folks if wrong, again by luck). So this is like cross-training that would prepare an athlete for anything that comes up next; knowing with intelligent humility the environment will be mostly ill-predicted when we arrive there, and of course some events will break quickly and as never before. I would agree with a premise (as in Mauboussin's The Success Equation) that when events are apparently random, it is important to develop a good resilient strategy, allowing for how often one expects to be wrong in forecasting outcomes.
Juggling With Knives is (being apparently mostly written mid-2015) a good update to my own endless survey through books, articles, personal reflection, etc., of what is going on, sometimes matching my own wide-ranging gatherings of words and ideas, sometimes ranging beyond them. The lexicon used is contemporary and reflects a lot of smart thinkers and writers, who are sometimes quoted on key ideas. And, this work wears well with the more recent actual events in the markets (it seems just to have missed the latest rounds of stock market upheavals, but presages them well). Markets at present (January 2016) feel steeper and more time-compressed than they have for several years, which is a nice fit for this book's approach. This suggests, as a first draft of an approach to contemporary history, it is high in applicability, and the timing seems fortunate (and I would say, smart). Finally, there is a sizable segment on actual strategies.

When government seizes land from private owners to serve a purpose preferred by bureaucrats and big business, it directly harms potential entrepreneurs. That is the finding of a new report from the Competitive Enterprise Institute.
According to the report's author Marc Scribner:
- The consequences of eminent domain abuse are extremely dire for the low income potential entrepreneur.
- Local officials lack the knowledge and expertise to effectively promote private development, so their political missteps can keep their localities in poverty by undermining entrepreneurship, and forgo the wealth it would have created.
- Moreover, takings tend to target lower-income areas which in turn decrease profitable opportunities for low income entrepreneurs disproportionately.
Eminent domain has been a political hot button issue since 2005, when the U.S. Supreme Court upheld New London, Connecticut's decision to condemn several parcels of residential property using the government's power of eminent domain:
- City officials wanted a comprehensive redevelopment plan to support a new research facility of pharmaceutical giant Pfizer.
- The research facility has since been shuttered, and the increased tax revenue and revitalized river district promoted by city officials did not materialize.
- Now, the land is home to a large vacant lot.
The report examines other such scenarios that have played out nationwide, and calls for government to stop abusing eminent domain power and allow market incentives that promote economic development.

Hi cincihal, I'm running out of ideas now, But I have found this on the web Share a Printer from XP to Windows 7 see if this helps you
|My System Specs
|08 Feb 2012
Let me point out that this is not a new printer, so when I try installing using the Installation disc that came with the printer I get 'Setup Error, The hp LaserJet 5100 setup program has encountered a severe error and will now exit. Restart your computer and run Setup again.' It gives this same error after restarting the computer and trying to install using the disc again.
I am able to get the printer to work on the Win 7 machine if it is directly connected to it, but then the other computers on the network cannot connect to it. They get the same"No .inf" errors that I get on the Win 7 machine when installing as a network printer.
The Win 7 pc is the only pc in the network that is 64bit. All the other PCs are 32 bit, and either xp home, or xp pro. Is it possible that there is a conflict with the bit types between the computers?
