The program includes a total of 62-hours of instructor-led training.
NOTE: These training manuals and materials are intended for use as part of an instructor-led course in accordance with the California Business and Professions Code. These materials may be used exclusively by BSIS licensed security officer trainers in approved and licensed training facilities or by licensed private or proprietary security officer agencies or business providers.
Available Instructor Materials:
- Chapter Presentations
- Chapter Examination Booklets (printable)
- Chapter Examination Answer Keys
Available Student Manuals:
- Power to Arrest Training Manual, Weapons of Mass Destruction and Terrorism Awareness for Security Professionals Student Workbook plus Supplemental Material
- 32-hours, Unarmed Skills Training Course for Security Guards: California
- Continuing Education, 8-hours, Unarmed Skills Training Course for Security Guards: California
- Firearms Training Manual & Baton Training Manual Student Text: California
Licensing Options
We offer two different licensing options. The material is the same in both programs, but each program has different benefits fitted to the teaching style and size of the school.
Option 1: Pay As You Go
The first option is our "Pay As You Go" program. With Option 1 there are no recurring fees. Simply purchase the manuals, purchase the Final Exam/Presentation packet and begin teaching. There is no commitment or minimum quantity. The manuals are considered a reusable "classroom set."
Option 2: Annual License
The second option is our "Annual License" program. For a recurring annual fee, there are benefits not available in our "Pay As You Go" program. Most significantly, all of the training manuals are purchased at a steep discount. The discount is made available so that manuals may be distributed to students that they keep. Distributing personal training materials is not only an educational best practice it helps shield against liability claims. For example, the school not only presented the information in the classroom, but the student was provided with a personal, printed copy of the material that he or she took home. This makes it more difficult to claim, "I was never taught that." Second, all updates to the digital training materials (presentations, exams, answer keys, etc.) are provided for free so long as the license agreement is in effect (new editions of the printed manuals must still be purchased).
- NOTE: Digital training materials are subject to our Licensing Agreement.

Drones continue to entice and intrigue not only individual hobbyists, but legitimate businesses and industries too. As more and more look to drones as a technological business advantage, FTI continues to follow the space and check in on policy. Today, we take a look at some interesting snapshots from the past week.
We continue to see a variety of potential stakeholders looking to benefit from drone technology:
CONFERENCES | On September 30, BZ Media LLC announced the success of its Women in Drones Luncheon, a special networking event at InterDrone(TM) The International Drone Conference & Exposition held on September 10 at The Rio in Las Vegas. The event brought together more than 50 leading women in the commercial drone industry to discuss challenges and triumphs faced by women in the predominantly male industry.
INDUSTRY | In September, Finland tried out drones in a new capacity – as a postman. The Finnish postal system, Posti, ran a pilot to deliver packages from Helsinki to Suomenlinna Island, which is home to about 900 permanent residents and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, making it a popular destination for tourists. The flight distance between the Helsinki harbor and the island is roughly 4 kilometers; to date, the mail has been delivered by boat.
DEFENSE | Aeronautics Defense Systems' Dominator XP unmanned air vehicle has completed a successful first series of flights in Mexico. Based on Diamond Aircraft's DA42 general aviation aircraft, the medium-altitude, long-endurance surveillance system was sold to the Mexican government via local marketing company Balam Security.
REGULATION | The Small UAV Coalition, which is pressing for relaxed regulations for the use of commercial drones, hired its first outside lobbyist the week of Sept. 28. The trade group, which counts members such as Google X and Amazon Prime Air, brought on lobbyist Robert Epplin, who recently started his own firm after splitting with the group founded by former House Majority Leader Dick Gephardt, Gephardt Government Affairs. The group retained Epplin Strategic Planning to influence the federal lawmakers on "transportation and appropriations issues," according to newly filed lobbying disclosures.
INDUSTRY | The Delmarva Daily Times reported that NASA predicts that UAV traffic at the Wallops Flight Facility "could increase up to 10-fold" once a new airstrip dedicated to such flights opens. The Association for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International "recently put the total economic impact of drones during the first three years they were integrated into the national airspace in the United States at more than $13.6 billion, with more than 70,000 jobs created."
There have been recent developments with drone technology at the state level:
REGULATION | In Minnesota, Forest Lake City Council members discussed regulating drones in the city during their Sept. 21 work session. City Administrator Aaron Parrish said the topic was brought up because some council members had asked him about it. Though some U.S. municipalities are regulating the use of drones, which are remotely controlled unmanned aircraft of any size, there aren't many Minnesota cities that have taken any action. Parrish presented a sample ordinance from St. Bonifacius that bans all drone use in city limits by private residents or by law enforcement, unless the entity using the drone has a warrant or is using the drone to save someone who is currently in danger.
LEGISLATION | State Rep. Raymond Gallison, Jr., (D-RI), plans to reintroduce legislation to regulate drones in November, according to a Sept. 18 General Assembly press release. The bill would protect the privacy and safety of the general public by requiring aircraft to be registered with the Department of Public Safety. Behaviors made illegal by the bill — such as capturing or transmitting images from an occupied building — would result in a penalty of up to three years in prison in addition to or instead of a fine of up to $5,000.
LEGISLATION | The increasing presence of drones may result in state legislation to reduce use of the unmanned aerial vehicles. In other parts of the country, pilots have been flying the devices over corrections facilities. State Sen. John Proos of St. Joseph wants to make sure there are no fly-overs at prisons in Michigan. The State Senator's bills would make it a four-year felony for anyone caught operating a drone within 1,000 feet of a lockup in this state. The package is now before the Senate Judiciary Committee.
There have been recent developments with drone technology at the federal level:
SCIENCE/RESEARCH | A proposal to use drones to study severe storms has received a boost from a $1.9 million federal grant to refine the aircraft and some of the instruments they carry. University of Colorado (CU) researcher Eric Frew said Sept. 30 that the National Science Foundation grant will allow CU and four other schools to develop guidance systems that maximize the drones' flight time. The grant will also help develop some of the instruments the drones would carry.
Recent developments within the FAA regarding the use of drones:
SAFETY | Denver International Airport and the FAA are partnering to raise awareness about safe unmanned aircraft operations. The agencies teamed up on a Public Service Announcement (PSA) that will run on the video towers in the airport's main terminal. The PSA uses the "No Drone Zone" slogan to drive home the point that flying an unmanned aircraft near a manned aircraft is illegal and dangerous. It refers viewers to the FAA's unmanned aircraft website and to the knowbeforeyoufly.org website for further information and guidance on flying unmanned aircraft safely and responsibly.
LEGISLATION | A three-year-old legislative deadline for integrating unmanned aerial systems (UAS) into U.S. commercial airspace passed without being met Sept. 30. The deadline to develop a framework to integrate drones and control systems into the National Airspace System (NAS) was set by Congress in a 2012 aviation funding bill. However, the FAA has indicated that it would most likely push past the deadline. A June 2014 Department of Transportation Inspector General report stated the agency would miss the 2015 mark because of "significant technological barriers," including detection and standardized air traffic procedures and other issues.
COMMERCE | With drones becoming cheaper and Christmas right around the corner, an FAA official said Sept. 28 that the agency plans to meet with Wal-Mart managers to educate them about drone dangers. "The talking point is that there'll be a million drones under Christmas trees," said Rich Swayze, an assistant administrator for the FAA, at an 'Airlines for America' event this afternoon. Swayze said that typically Wal-Mart has an annual meeting of its general managers before the Christmas season hits, and that FAA plans to send someone to the meeting "to talk to those people so that they can educate people that are buying these devices."
SPORTS | According to the Associated Press, the FAA has granted the NFL the ability to use drones on a limited basis to record practice footage. The use of drones at games will remain prohibited, but teams and NFL Films will be allowed to use the unmanned aerial technology to provide a unique perspective if local, state and federal guidelines clear them to do so.
EYE IN THE SKY | WPXI-TV Channel 11 is the first station in the Pittsburgh market to get approval to fly a drone, which will be used to enhance news coverage. A team spent more than a year learning about drone restrictions before the FAA gave Channel 11 the OK. The drone, which will have the capability to fly in places that are inaccessible to Chopper 11, will be used to cover stories including breaking news and severe weather.
SAFETY | The FAA has opened an investigation after a DJI Inspire 1 crashed and injured a nearly one-year-old girl in Pasadena, California in early September. The crash of the 6.4 pound drone took place during a September 12 movie screening of The Princess Bride at City Hall, according to the Pasadena Star News. The child sustained a quarter-inch cut on her head and a bump on the forehead—she was seen at Huntington Memorial Hospital and released.
DATA | In a report issued the week of Sept. 20, the Association for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International (AUVSI) breaks down data surrounding the first 1,000 drone permits by state, offering a far more granular view of the U.S. commercial drone industry than we've seen to date. Their report found that commercial operators now fly in 49 states, using vehicles manufactured in 22 states. An overwhelming 85% of companies holding Section 333 exemptions are small businesses. Applications span a variety of industries, but are largely tied to aerial data gathering. However the states with the most companies operating commercial drones aren't just the biggest states, but territories with major aerospace and aviation industry hubs, like California, Texas, and Florida.

Hydraulic Concrete Crunching is an extremely effective way to carry out Controlled Demolition of a variety of materials that is also friendly to the environment.
The jaws of the breaker are placed on the open edge of the concrete structure and hydraulic pressure is applied to force the jaws to close, crushing the concrete into rubble. As the procedure is non-percussive there is limited risk of damage to nearby structures and the low levels of noise minimises disruption.
Corecut are experts at using hydraulic crunchers to demolish floors, walls, and staircases up to 350mm thick – quickly, silently, and with very little dust or vibration.
At Corecut we have a comprehensive range of Concrete Crunching machines that enable us to perform a wide range of functions. From our power crunchers that have an impressive crushing force of 45 tons to hand crunchers which are perfect for refurbishment projects, especially where there is limited access or the area is particularly sensitive. Furthermore, our range of concrete crunching machines keep noise, dust and vibration levels to a minimum, whilst remote operation enables increase operator safety.
We have a full range of concrete crunching case studies available. If you would like to find out more about the range of services we offer, please click here to contact us today.

The two women met at the Nike store in San Francisco, and since then, Rowbury has been guiding the actress as she builds her fitness.
"I told her to do intervals, by running fast/slow even if she's running on treadmill or in the street," Rowbury told Runner's World Newswire by email last week. Rowbury is in Moscow to compete in the 5,000 meters at the World Championships, which begin tomorrow.
Rowbury also suggested she get a GPS watch, which Lohan has been spotted wearing.
If Lohan does finish 26.2, she'll join a cadre of celebrities who have run a marathon, which includes Katie Holmes, Edward Norton, Ryan Reynolds, and of course, Oprah Winfrey.


text: Echoing a lawsuit brought a week earlier by a competitor in the pepper category, a consumer has filed a proposed class action against McCormick & Co. alleging that the company underfills its tins of black pepper because it reduced the pepper in each tin by 25 percent but retained the traditional packaging size. Dupler v. McCormick & Co., No. 15-3454 (E.D.N.Y., filed June 15, 2015). Facing rising prices for black pepper, the complaint argues, McCormick has begun selling 1.5-ounce, 3-ounce and 6-ounce pepper products in place of its 2-ounce, 4-ounce and 8-ounce products, respectively, but continues to use the larger "iconic" packaging it used for decades. This "slack fill" violates the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, the plaintiff argues, and she seeks to represent a New York class in an action for damages, an injunction and attorney's fees. The unfaircompetition suit against McCormick alleging violations of the Lanham Act and various state business practices was discussed in Issue 568 of this Update.

Need opinions-- IUI or IUI+ trigger?
I would love to get some opinions since I am feeling a little overwhelmed at the moment... Here is our situation:
TTC over a year and a half with an early m/c (8 weeks) in August 2010. We got pregnant our very first cycle ntnp but it ended in the m/c and since then we can't manage to get pregnant again.
My progesterone is low and I was on clomid for 3 cycles, which lengthened my LP (from about 10 days to 14) and brought the progesterone up to 95!!
We've done about 5 SAs; the first one revealed a high WBC. The urologist gave DH a 7 day antibiotic and after several more SAs the WBC is down to 1-5, which is ok according to urologist.
I had an hsg done last week Monday which revealed open tubes and a normally shaped uterus.
Since DH's count is low, in the mid 20s and his motility isnt good either, we have decided on moving ahead with an IUI.
The RE told us the IUI is about $670 but I found out yesterday when we went in for more BW that this is for a non-triggered cycle.
The ovulation induction cycle is $1400 and I guess that's when they give you clomid and the hsg shot.
We are waiting on our labs to come back within the next 10 days and if they look good we are cleared for the IUI!
So I would love to get some opinions.. The way I look at it is that with the triggered O, I am pretty much guaranteed a good progesterone level and the chances of a bfp are also increased. I'd rather shell out that money the first go around and hopefully have it end in pregnancy than to do one IUI (no trigger) and it not work. Now I realize even with the triggered O there is a good chance of it not resulting in pregnancy but I feel like my chances are better, especially since my progesterone will be where it should be and my LP will be a few days longer.
Sorry for the long post but thanks in advance for the input! :)
Re: Need opinions-- IUI or IUI+ trigger?
These are the statistics that we were given, based on studies the university medical center where we go conducted for the NIH. They found, statistically, that IUI with Clomid + Trigger lead to no more "take-home baby" success than just IUI with Clomid. But I do not have a breakdown of the numbers based on a specific diagnosis, i.e., low progesterone, or whether that would affect those success rates. I don't know if that helps or just confuses matters, but I thought I would offer it. Good luck with your decision.
Re: Need opinions-- IUI or IUI+ trigger?
I'm just happy for your input and for shared stories and experiences. :) Thank you.
Like I said; I am fairly overwhelmed with this and am still trying to understand it 100% so I may be looking at this the wrong way but I figured with the trigger shot they have an exact time that O will happen. My info papers that the RE gave me said with the trigger, O happens 34-38 hours after, very predictably. So I am thinking that alone would increase chances but I am just not certain that warrants paying over double vs just doing the IUI... :( I don't know if I am making any sense.
Re: Need opinions-- IUI or IUI+ trigger?
see i was going to do ivf, im in a same sex relationship, and was going to use her eggs but since that is 20 thou i was thinking about doing the iui and saving up for the ivf and i was also looking at the same thing to use a trigger or to not. im thinking im going to try without trigger shot the first time because i dont want to pay the extra and then not actually have needed it you know what i mean and im pretty good at donig my chart and ovulating so i think i am going to try it like that and if no success then ill try with the trigger.
All i can say is do what you think is best for you if you think you wil have trouble without the trigger use the trigger but if not try one time at least without the trigger.
Re: Need opinions-- IUI or IUI+ trigger?
Why is there such a difference in price between a medicated and unmedicated cycle, especally just a clomid + trigger? I'd ask about that, because clomid is fairly cheap(under $30), a trigger is less than $100. I'd assume they are still doing some kind of monitoring with an unmedicated cycle as well, so those would really only be the price differences.
Personally, I'd do the trigger. I prefer doing the trigger and knowing within a very precise window as to when I will ovulate.
Re: Need opinions-- IUI or IUI+ trigger?
Re: Need opinions-- IUI or IUI+ trigger?
In the end, I think the best we can do with all of these decisions is to look at the information or statistics, measured against our budgets, and then, eventually, we just get a feel for what is right for each of us. Again, sorry, probably not terribly helpful. (And you're absolutely right about being overwhelmed. It feels like that each step of the way for me.)
Re: Need opinions-- IUI or IUI+ trigger?
I would say do the IUI+ CLomid+ Trigger :) I would ask why the pricing is so much different as well! Most likely you are paying for the IUI itself and no monitoring with ultrasounds but I do not know. GOOD LUCK!!!
Re: Need opinions-- IUI or IUI+ trigger?
My first three IUIs were natural...no monitoring, no Clomid, no trigger. I called my doc (OB/GYN at that time) when I got a positive OPK, and we did the IUI 24 hours later.
My next 3 IUIs were the whole she-bang...Clomid, u/s monitoring, b/w, trigger shot.
None of them worked, but I was happy with what we tried. We did the natural ones first because we just weren't ready for the next step...we were still trying to wrap our heads around the fact that we weren't already pregnant on our own. When the more natural approach failed, we saw an RE and jumped in with both feet.
I don't know if any of that helps at all, but I hope that you and DH can decide on a plan that you both can be excited about!
Re: Need opinions-- IUI or IUI+ trigger?
Anyway, if the cost is essentially the same, i'd do the trigger shot - it's nice to have a little more monitoring & control of ovulation (speaking as someone who missed O last cycle and couldn't then use the trigger shot)...but if it's really hundreds of dollars more I'd probably skip the trigger shot.
Re: Need opinions-- IUI or IUI+ trigger?
Re: Need opinions-- IUI or IUI+ trigger?
First off, thanks SO very much for all these responses!! It helps more than I could ever express just having such a support system. Thank you!
I want back over the two sheets (one is IUI info sheet the other is ovulation induction therapy sheet) and it looks like (as far as I can interpret) that with the IUI ($670), all you are getting is just the IUI. It doesn't say anything about monitoring... So maybe that's where the price difference lays? With the induction it states on the sheet that you get 2 u/s visits along with bw and medications. Maybe I need to call up there tomorrow. I guess with the IUI you monitor your opks on your own and call them as soon as you get a positive?
I'd hate to jinx I g myself but as you can see from my charts, I O very dependably on CD 17... Now leave it to my luck that the stress from an upcoming IUI delays my O the cycle we are supposed to get it done... lol. I guess that's why it would be nice to have the reassurance of the triggers.
As far as I know our insurance doesn't cover any part of the IUI. They have covered all the lab work so far so I guess maybe that will be covered if we go with the trigger.
Re: Need opinions-- IUI or IUI+ trigger?
that is a LOT of money for an IUI only! I'd definitely be checking the prices at other RE's near you. Like I said, a medicated cycle with monitoring doesn't even cost that much at my clinic.
Re: Need opinions-- IUI or IUI+ trigger?
That is a really high just iui fee. Most iui's are under $300 without monitoring from what I have seen. Definitely shop around a little unless you really love your RE and are ok with paying that price.
Honestly, I did just clomid and iui one cycle and obviously bfn, but this cycle I did a fully monitored cycle with clomid, trigger, and iui and I am feeling much better about it. It's nice to have the monitoring on clomid because I found out my lining was only at a 3.9mm (far too thin for implantation to occur) during my CD 10 u/s and they had to put me on estradiol to build it up. Without the monitoring I would've had NO chance of getting pregnant this cycle. It's also nice to know how many follies you have when going into the iui too. It's worth the monitoring in my opinion, if only for peace of mind.
Re: Need opinions-- IUI or IUI+ trigger?
Want to ditto the other girls...those prices are crazy...you should definitely try to look around to see if you can get it done for a more reasonable price...
I have no infertility coverage (except for the bloodwork and U/Ss - which sounds like the same type of coverage you have), and my IUI with injectables cost less than that...
when I did Clomid, I got it for $20 (no insurance coverage)...
HCG trigger shot (10000iu with the needle and shot thingie) was $59 through Walgreens Speciality pharmacy...
IUI was $285 which included sperm wash...
FWIW, my injectables (900iu of Follistim) was around $850 with the Walgreen Speciality Pharmacy discount...
Re: Need opinions-- IUI or IUI+ trigger?
Anyway, I have no stats, just experience of what worked for me. I did clomid+trigger+IUI my first try. It was a bust.
Second try we did Clomid 100mg+mid cycle ultrasound and I chose to use OPK's and call them when they turned positive. I purposely waited an extra day because I surge for 2 days and not just one. I felt like waiting out increase the chances that the sperm and egg would meet...since washed sperm don't live as long. Well it worked.
You have to do what you feel comfortable with, but trust that you know your body very well. And ask about those prices. It just seems so steep.
Re: Need opinions-- IUI or IUI+ trigger?
:( I don't know what to do. It seems like EVERYONE on here unanimously agrees that the prices are too high--but on the other hand, I don't think we have much to chose from! As far as I know, the only other RE is about 2 hours away from here, a friend of mine uses them actually and I already asked her-- she said they charge the same. I think it's just the area we live in, unfortunately. :( DH and I still need to have the convo about which route we will take anyways. I will try to do a search to see if there are more REs in this area, but like I said, mine and the one 2 hours away are the only ones I came up with when I started the search.
That really sucks; I wish ours was less expensive! That would help matters tremendously.
I think I want to go with the trigger and just do the whole thing at once; hopefully that will do the trick. It looks like my progesterone is low again this cycle, judging from the low post O temps I have gotten so far so clomid will definitely help.
Hey Jillian, can you give me some pointers on the 2 day surging? I always get 2 days of positive OPKs too and then O on the second day. Is that something that I should factor in?
Thank you so much for all the responses! They are greatly appreciated. :)
Re: Need opinions-- IUI or IUI+ trigger?
So, my other IUI I was so defeated and just DONE with TTC for awhile. I decided that I wouldn't trigger because I had no problem ovulating and with Clomid I always knew my progesterone was high enough if something was to fertilize. So.... I was told to test with OPK's and when I got my positive to call the doc. After almost a year of knowing I had 2 days of positives and watching the clues of my body, I knew I'd have better luck to wait until the surge was closer to leaving my body. I just KNEW it would give me a closer window for the sperm and egg to meet, instead of shooting the washed sperm in there and them dying off before my ovary pushed my egg out. So, that's what I did. I waited. I tested positive on one afternoon and then I called the next day and told them I tested positive THAT day. We scheduled for the next morning. So I tested positive. Then the next day I tested positive, then the next morning I was fading to negative and that was the morning of the IUI. I had read that IUI's were MOST successful 8-12 hours EITHER side of ovulation. I feel like that is how it worked. Truly.
I know this is long. Ask me anything you need for me to clarify. Maybe a trigger with a 30-40 hour wait before IUI would have worked better for me. IT just wasn't planned that way.
Re: Need opinions-- IUI or IUI+ trigger?
If it makes you feel any better those prices are exactly the same as we have around here. And we don't have lots of alternatives either.

Every once in a while you hear a spine chilling story that sends goose bumps up your back. Well here are a few for you to sit around the fire at night and be grateful for what your have.
They say everyone have a purpose in life and after reading these stories I bet not only are you going to wonder what the individual's purpose is, but no doubt its a question they ask themselves on a daily basis after surviving what they went through.
A Christmas To Remember
A 37 year old man suffered the horrific accident of falling 47 stories what was sure to be the death of him. Unfortunately it did result in the death of his brother who also fell from the same scaffolding. Miraculously Alcides was still alive after hitting the concrete pavement. His condition was so grave that to move him to the operating room would have meant sure death so they operated on him in the ER.
For three weeks he remained like a vegetable in a coma. On Christmas day he awoke and was able to speak. Less than a month later he left the hospital. Just how miraculous is this? Well figures show that the survival rate from a four story fall is less than 50%. So how do you account for a 47 story fall and still survive. Bet those goosbumps are crawling up your spine now. If not then read this…
So Where Did The Time go
Its not uncommon to hear of terrible accidents where a victim ends up in a comma, and the family is left to face some very difficult decisions. At the very least as the days and weeks slip away the Family slowly comes to the realization that there loved one is just not here any longer. Then something miraculous happens such as it did for this man.
After suffering a debilitating brain injury Terry Wallas remained in a semi conscious state bordering on the vegetative state. Then after 20 years he comes out of this mental prison to rejoin his family. How does one receive the news that after 20 years their loved one is awake?

A Decision That Pierce the Very Soul
What exhilarating news to discover you are going to give birth to twins. Then this most joyful event is shattered in a split second when the twins are diagnosed with twin-to-twin syndrome. Meaning that the little ones shared the same blood vessels. The worst of it yet to come. The parents were asked to make a decision to terminate the life of one of the little girls that lay snuggled together in the Mother's tummy. The anguish that these parents must have gone through is beyond words. Fortunately it wasn't necessary as a solution was found by using laser surgery to cauterize the blood vessels. Two months later two lovely baby girls bid hello to the world.

Ex-Vice President Cheney Suffers Massive Heart Attack in Dubai
Reuters January 25 2009
US ex-Vice President Richard Cheney suffered a massive heart-attack today in Dubai, Reuters has learned. Sources at the American Hospital Dubai reported that Mr.Cheney, who was apparently entertaining at his villa on Palm Island, a mega-condominium complex here, suffered the attack around 1AM Dubai time, or 10PM GMT.
Reports are so far sketchy, but the former American Vice President has a history of heart problems. Cheney became a resident of Dubai sometime in late 2007, when his former company, Halliburton, shifted their corporate HQ to the UAE. It is reported that at this time, he purchase a villa on Palm Island, an expansive luxury home/condominium complex, that also has as residents such global luminaries as Madonna and British soccer star David Beckham. Prices for these accomodtions start somewhere in the neighborhood of $2-3 million and can go much higher.
No status or condition report on Cheney is currently available. American Hospital officials would not even announce officially that Cheney was a patient. In an ironic twist of fate, Osama Bin Laden, Cheney's 'arch-enemy' in the global War on Terror, was also treated at the American Hospital Dubai in the summer of 2001 for kidney failure.
In Washington, the White House has apparently learned of Cheney's health problems through diplomatic channels. The current White House, and President Frank Dialogue, have, in the past week, issued a warrant for Cheney's arrest for matters involving 'national security', and have been speaking with officials in the UAE about having Cheney returned to the US. The White House had no comment on the current situation other than a statement by Press Secretary Ken Larrios that 'we are following the situation'.

BBC sorry for revealing Queen`s concerns about Hamza
The BBC has apologised for revealing that the Queen had raised concerns over why Abu Hamza had not been arrested, The Telegraph reported Tuesday.
London: The BBC has apologised for revealing that the Queen had raised concerns over why Abu Hamza had not been arrested, The Telegraph reported Tuesday.
The corporation`s security correspondent Frank Gardner claimed in a conversation he had with the Queen several years ago, she had spoken of her frustration that Hamza was still at liberty and spreading messages of hatred.
He said she also revealed she had raised the issue with the home secretary of the time.
It is not known when the conversation took place but the hate cleric was arrested on charges under the Terrorism Act in late 2004.
But within hours of Gardner`s revelations, the BBC wrote to Buckingham Palace apologising for breaching the confidence of the Queen in a private conversation.
It said the comments were "wholly inappropriate" and that Gardner "deeply regretted" the breach and was "extremely sorry".
Former home secretaries contacted over the issue have all said it would be inappropriate to discuss any private conversations they had had with the Queen.
The BBC said it quickly realised its error and issued the apology. A spokesman said it was not the result of any complaint from Buckingham Palace.
The letter said: "This morning on the Today programme our correspondent Frank Gardner revealed details of a private conversation which took place some years ago with the Queen."
"The conversation should have remained private and the BBC and Frank deeply regret this breach of confidence. It was wholly inappropriate."
"Frank is extremely sorry for the embarrassment caused and has apologised to the Palace."
Earlier, Gardner had said the Queen was so "upset" about the Islamist extremist being allowed to preach his message of hate in Britain that she asked a former home secretary to explain why he was still at large.
Hamza and four other terror suspects are facing extradition to America within days after the European Court of Human Rights Monday rejected their appeal to stay in Britain.
Hamza, who lost both hands and an eye fighting the Soviet Union in Afghanistan, is charged in the US with 11 counts relating to the taking of 16 hostages in Yemen in 1998, advocating jihad in Afghanistan and conspiring to set up a jihad training camp in US.
The US first requested his extradition in 2004. The process was put on hold when Hamza was charged in Britain with 15 offences under the Terrorism Act.
In 2006 he was found guilty on 11 charges, including inciting murder and race hate, and was jailed for seven years.

Jubilee Furniture will be open normal business hours over the Easter weekend!
Spring has most definitely sprung and we got ya covered at Jubilee Furniture! Thanks to an amazing relationship with the outdoor furniture showroom managers at the Merchandise Mart - we have extremely high end outdoor pieces that have never been used (other than in a showroom) and sell 'em at a fraction of their retail price (though still higher than what you might be used to at Jubilee Furniture simply because of their very high retail price to begin with. Does that make sense?).
So, please join me as we take a look at some of our current inventory!
yesterday afternoon this is what our side yard looked like. Some of the chairs we're selling WITHOUT cushions BUT some HAVE cushions (you'll see some of the cushions stacked in the store in a later photo). Though this is OUTDOOR furniture we didn't want the
cushions to get wet knowing rain was in the forecast
wonderful large round coffee table for $225; 64" x 64" square blue dining table for $495
36" x 36" square side table for $295; some type of wood composite (to withstand the elements) coffee table that measures 50" x 32" for $195
4' round table for $425; metal end table for $75
this is a GORGEOUS all weather wicker MATCHING set WITH THE EXCEPTION of the first photo/chair which has a dark metal base/legs rather than the chrome the rest of the pieces have. Though cushions are not required (the wicker is very comfortable without 'em) the sectional sits low without cushions (and there are NO cushions with this set). First photo/chair is priced $225;
chair and ottoman for $295; end table for $125; coffee table for $295;
four piece sectional for $995; adjustable back chaise for $425
amazing small round metal table with two matching chairs for $650
and then just to show you all of our outdoor furniture isn't priced sky high (ha!) here's a wonderful black wrought iron table with four chairs (some rust) for $65
so even though some of the Merchandise Mart furniture doesn't have cushions that doesn't mean we don't have you covered! We're selling all of our outdoor cushions for $10 each!
Again, these are new from the Mart
fabulous sofa in excellent condition for $325
I LOVE the brown and black plaid of this Miles Talbot chair in
very good condition for $165
there's some wear on this Room & Board sofa which is reflected in its $165 price tag
two AMAZING side chairs - love the fringe! Priced $65 each
(which I think is a steal!)
wonderful sofa in very good condition for $245
excellent condition Lexington Home sofa with loose pillow back for $395
spot cleaning is needed on this Room & Board chair and ottoman priced $145 (when I say "spot cleaning" I mean there are a few spots but, overall, the piece is not dirty. When I think a piece needs to be professionally cleaned then I'll let you know that and it means
I think - overall - the piece is dirty)
I absolutely LOVE the colors/pattern of this sofa by Sherrill!
In excellent condition and priced $295
two very nice wingback chairs. A seam is coming undone on the seat cushion of one of them
(see last photo). Seam problem chair is $55; other chair is $65
gray corduroy sofa - seat cushions could use some fluffing/adjusting
but overall in good condition. Priced $145
"regal" side chair (manufacturer is Universal) in very good condition
though some minor dings in the wood. Priced $165
gorgeous pedestal table with one leaf for $145; six ladder back chairs with rush seats for $150
(have I already shown you these chairs? If so, sorry!)
this is a lovely three piece Ashley Furniture sectional that's only one year old! In EXCELLENT condition and priced $345. One catch. It smells faintly of cigarette smoke (which is one of my screening questions and an automatic, "No, thank you" normally so not sure what happened)
lovely moss green velvet sofa for $85 and matching loveseat for $65.
Both have some wear on 'em
I love the smaller size of this recliner. Neutral fabric - some wear on the arms. Priced $55
so, here's where you can see some of the cushions that belong on pieces in the yard. You can also see an AMAZING SIX piece sectional (one of the six pieces is the round ottoman) outdoor set which retails for $4,200 and we're selling for $2,895! Again, this is a
new, never been used set from the Merchandise Mart!
gorgeous outdoor sofa with cushions and metal base for $1,395
amazing swivel rocker with cushions for $425
bouncy side chair with cushions for $395
Thomasville dresser with mirror - note the fun purple accent color - for $65
this is a very nice loveseat priced ONLY $10! Granted, there's no seat cushion but I'm wondering if you could find something that would work from our $10 cushions?
originally designed as a reception desk but
could be re-purposed as a bar! Priced only $65!
need some extra tables? We're selling these 2 1/2' x 6' folding tables for $10 each!
These are wooden top, sturdy tables. WOW!

Won't be back: Food was tasteless.
I have eaten at Baton Rouge in other locations many times but I have to agree with previous reviews of this one in Whitby. Sorely disappointed by fatty, unflavourful ribs, cold vegetables that should have been hot and overpriced for quantity of food. Staff was mediocre at best. The decor and atmosphere was fine (normal Baton Rouge layout).
went in hoping for nice food ,atmosphere was nice,servers were nice but the food was horrible,I don't think anyone here learnt about presentation.steamed veggies looked like someone's carrots from a wing special but reheated,aspargus was woody at best.the prime rib was not marbled but fatty-not just a little fat but huge chunks of fat(only 2oz of 10 oz were edible),it tasted similar to something you used to get at the woolco food area when your parents dragged you there.the drinks were so sweet that I felt like I was having a glucose tolerance test.the ribs were ok but for the price you're paying I expected more.
Réponse du marchand 29 mars 2011
All handling and product of our prime rib program was reviewed and now in 2011 our prime rib is rated as one of the best in Durham region.
Great ribs, not great service. Very long time waiting on the drink orders. Finally got them and our appetizers - then they bring the ribs just as we get into the cheese dip. I realize restaurants need to turn tables but I don't appreciate being pushed out the door. I hope they learn some timing before we go back again.
Great restaurant! The atmosphere is great, it was nice to have a drink at the bar while waiting for our table. The service was perfect and the food fantastic. The Ribs were really melting. We will go back!

Disbursement Schedule Template
Money is the one thing that needs to be paid on time, whether it is a fee, charity or the employees' payment. This means that there needs to be a schedule that is determined so that the disbursement is done on time and there is no break in the schedule.
The disbursement schedule that is determined by you is wholly solely dependent on your ease. Some people like to make their payments at the very first date of the month, some choose the middle of the month and some make the payments at the last date of every month to fulfill the quota of the upcoming month.
Payments on time:
Making all the payments on time is the most necessary thing so that you don't get in the arguing with someone you owe money just because the payments you make are late. The ON-time payment done is the best payment and this means that you need to have the reminder for it to do. The disbursement schedule template that is provided by us has the property to keep reminding you of the payments that are to be made. This way you not only formulate the schedule but also there is a cyclic form that will surely save you from getting into any money trouble.
The disbursement schedule template is the best one for you to have, this will also keep track of the fact that you have been making payments regularly and do not owe anyone more money than the regular payments.

Writing for a living can sometimes strip away the magic and leave bare the bones of your passion. Structure can be built without a drop of care instilled. Skills and talent can often be drawn upon without invoking enthusiasm.
When you're in the middle of a project you love, it doesn't matter how much you sweat and bleed. You go without sleep, ignore showers and housework, mumble to yourself while downing too much coffee, and stare at the words that you hope you can construct into a living, breathing story. It can be frustrating and challenging and wonderful. Even if you're struggling with the art, there is something satisfying about the fight. Something magical. And worthwhile.
I miss that kind of writing.
I write copy during the day. It can be challenging. It can also be creative. But it doesn't inspire the kind of rabid devotion I've experienced when I write novels. It also pays the bills and gives my kid health insurance, so that's the trade-off, the sacrifice. I still write novels, but compressing writing time into 15 minutes here, two hours there, and when on deadline, I forfeit sleep to finish the project.
My life is changing this week. I am combining my life, forever and ever, with that of my Viking. We are weaving together a new family. We are creating new patterns, new expectations, new goals, and new responsibilities. I am a mommy times two again. I have a commitment to co-maintaining the household and all that entails.
Time to write books, to work within the worlds that beat in my heart, whisper in my mind, has gotten ever more precious.
I'm trying to figure out how to make it all work, but I find myself grieving for the words. For the time I need to create, explore, build … to find the passion, the excitement again.
In time, I imagine I'll find that magical place again.
Until then … I move forward. Carry on. And dream.

New Flexible Code Restriction
NFCR controls the access of Toll Denied (TLD, CTD, CUN) stations and trunks to outgoing routes, based on the specific digit sequence dialed. This is useful for blocking certain digit strings (or area codes) when the route access code (ACOD) is used, assuming that TGAR has allowed access in the first place.
NFCR and Class of Service (CLS):
|NFCR restrictions do not apply for BARS, NARS, CDP or ANI type calls.
NFCR applies only on direct trunk access code (ACOD) type calls.
|Users are always affected no matter how their call is dialed.
The FRL associated with the users NCOS is used to determine which codes are allowed or denied.
Stations are by default Conditionally Toll Denied (CTD). See also CLS Access Restrictions.
NFCR Implementation:
- A digit string list (CRNO) for each FRL level is set for a route in LD 16
- Initially, in each CRNO, all codes are either allowed or denied (INIT ALOW / DENY)
- Specific digit string exceptions (codes) are then allowed (or denied) as required in LD 49
LD 21, print FCR (FCR_DATA) to see is NCFR is enabled (default is disabled) - change FCR in LD 15.
REQ: prt TYPE: fcr_data CUST 0 TYPE FCR_DATA CUST 00 NFCR YES New Flexible Code Restriction is enabled! MAXT 100 max. number of code restriction trees (LD 49: CRNO) :
LD 87, NCOS - FRL map, often 1:1.
The FRL normally controls access to an RLI entry: FRL 0 is the most restrictive, 7 is the least restrictive and can access more entries. For a toll denied set dialing an ACOD, with NFCR YES, the FRL controls which code restriction tree is referenced for route access.
REQ prt CUST 0 FEAT nctl NRNG 0 10 enter a from-to NCOS range to print SOHQ NO SCBQ NO NCOS 0 NCOS value... EQA NO FRL 0 mapped to FRL value : NCOS 1 NCOS value... EQA NO FRL 1 mapped to FRL value :
LD 16, in the Route Data Block, an NFCR tree number (CRNO) is assigned to each Facility Restriction Level (FRL).
Scroll down to the FRL section, near the bottom of the RDB block to see the CRNO assignments. Default is 0:
: FRL 0 0 sets with FRL 0 will reference CRNO 0 FRL 1 1 " " FRL 1 " " CRNO 1 FRL 2 2 " " FRL 2 " " CRNO 2 FRL 3 0 ... etc FRL 4 0 FRL 5 0 FRL 6 0 FRL 7 0 :
Use LD 49 to administer, and print, code restriction trees and digit string (NFCR) data.
Any digit sequences is initially (INIT) ALOWed or DENYed
Exceptions can be: DENY / ALOW / or BYPS (exceptions make the rule!)
- ALOW or DENY define a specific digit sequence to allow or block
- BYPS defines a digit sequence to bypass, though following digits may be blocked.
REQ prt TYPE fcr CUST 0 CRNO CRNO 0 code restriction tree number INIT ALOW by default allow all codes <- no exceptions CRNO 1 INIT DENY initially, deny all codes ALOW 555 <- exceptions, digit sequence to be allowed 556 CRNO 2 INIT ALOW initially, allow all codes DENY 1900 <- exceptions, digit sequence to be denied CRNO 3 :
LD 49 is also used for Incoming Digit Conversion.

Complaint Review: MaryLinn's Couture Bridal

MaryLinn's Couture Bridal Liars, unprofessional, disrespectful, NOT trustworthy Pasadena, California
Once we got a room and was assigned an associate everyone became very helpful. The girl that was assigned to us seemed new and very unsure of what she was doing. After an hour another associate came to help us, her name was Sessy. She was amazing, she somehow understood what my mother was asking in Chinese even though Sessy didnt understand the language at all. She would obviously answer my mom in English but at the same time show her so my mom understood. This cut down a lot on the translation process for me and all her answers were satisfactory for my mom.
Eventually we found the dress that everyone was happy with and then they sent Monia into my dressing room to tell me that if I purchase the dress today they will do the alterations for free. I knew I would be able to find this same dress elsewhere for cheaper but I thought that this store was trustworthy and reliable and that was justification enough for the premium and since alterations and other manufacturer modications were free the costs basically even out.
I ordered the dress 11.5 months before my wedding, they said it would take 4-6 months. About 6 months roll by and I had not heard from them, I call them and ask when I should be expecting my dress, 20 minutes later after being on hold I am told by Monia that my dress got damaged during shipment and that they will be making a new one and it would be here basically 4 weeks before my wedding. Its bad enough that the dress is going to get here so late but it was very unprofessional of them to not have followed up on my dress until I called them. Monia said that she would call weekly to find out the status of the dress and keep me posted. Three weeks went by and I had not heard from this store so I decided to give them a call. I find out from Sessy that my dress will not be here 3 weeks before my wedding. I got extremely upset because no one called to update me even though I was told they would. Their answer was that they just found out. How convenient right?
Fast forwarding a few months to the day the dress got in Dawn from the store called to schedule my fitting. I asked if I can come in on a weekend as that is much more convenient for me and she said no, then I pointed out that my dress was 4.5 months late and she just rudely said the seamstress is only here during the week. Alrighty then, I scheduled something for Wednesday afternoon which my mom and I both had to take the afternoon off. I got off of work and had to go pick up my mom at home (which is about 50 miles away) and as soon as I get home I get a call from Sessy at the store telling me that the seamstress had an emergency and that they had to reschedule. At this point I am furious because both my mom and I had taken time off of work to make it to their store on a weekday because they wouldnt allow me a weekend appointment. All she did was apologize and I told her that at one point apologies dont mean anything because you are not doing anything to rectify the issue. She then offered to have the seamstress come in on weekends for my fittings.
Saturday comes around and I go in for my first fitting. We ended up waiting because the seamstress was not done with her other appointment yet. I thought the seamstress doesnt work on weekends? They brought out my dress and when I pulled it out, none of the manufacturer modifications my mom had asked for were made. So I turn to the associate that brought out the dress and I tell her the problem and her response is I only brought out the dress I didnt order it.
It baffles me that a store associate has this type of response and its even more frustrating that no one bothered to check the gowns that they received to make sure thats actually what they ordered. I then had to wait another few days for the store manager Monia to call the manufacturer to figure out what happened. One of the modifications my mom wanted was to not have any pickups on the dress, Monia decided that it was appropriate to take a pair of scissors and start hacking away at the pickups to take them out. Im sorry but this is probably the most expensive outfit I will ever buy myself, and I dont ever want to see anyone just hacking away at it. TOTALLY UNPROFESSIONAL AND RUDE. Monia apparently was very proud of herself as she was fixing the problem.
Fastfowarding to the actual fittings, the first one went fine and it was fast. The second one wasnt so smooth as one side of the dress sat higher on my chest than the other. Then came what I thought was the third and final fitting which was a week before the wedding. At this fitting I noticed that the dress had been altered to the point where it didnt sit straight on my body, the left breast was a different shape than the right breast. My mom became furious because we were assured that this seamstress knew what she was doing. Youd think that a seamstress at a bridal shop would be more careful but she was tripping and stepping all over the dress.
The third fitting took place on a Saturday, we were told everything would be fixed by Monday to do the final fitting, that didnt happen, we ended up going to the store Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. On Wednesday night we just stayed there and tried on the dress after every alteration since we werent able to make it to the store on Friday because it was the day before my wedding and I had other things I needed to take care of. On Thursday we went to pick up the dress and to learn how to bustle it. When I examined the dress the beading that she put back on after all the alterations were done looked as if she did it half asleep, some areas missed the beading. Afterwards my bridesmaid was learning how to bustle the dress and we realized that we needed more bustles since the train was so long. This was the one thing I didnt re-check because they managed to screw this up too. They managed to make a bustle on the left but forgot to do it on the right side so I was lopsided. At that point what could I do.
At every point all they kept saying was Im sorry, we promise it will be ok. After we had paid them, nothing was ever ok and they never tried to make it any better for the customer. Youd think that people think fondly of their wedding dress and remember all the happy memories associated with it. When I look at mine all I think of was the months and months of frustration I had to go through with this store. Word of advice, please do not go here, I found my dress for $500 cheaper somewhere else. I decided to purchase it here because I thought they were a reputable business, unfortunately they are anything but that. They do not care to make their customers happy, all they want is your money and all they do is tell you that everything will be perfect and great but they don't do anything to make it that way.

Yesterday we learned that former Chicago Tribune and Los Angeles Times staffers were working to create content for The New York Times that will compete with pubs owned by their old employer, Tribune Co. The former Tribune editors have created a non-profit "content co-op" called the Chicago News Cooperative, which will provide news content for the Times' local Chicago edition, among other news outlets.
One of the co-op's editors, Jim O'Shea — a former Tribune and L.A. Times editor — sat down with another one of CNC's partners, television station WTTW in Chicago, to discuss their work at greater length.
Here, O'Shea talks about the creation of the collective and its plans and goals for the future.

Unanswered: Index not being used
we've been using postgres 8.3 on linux in a production environment for over 2 years now, and this morning the database choked on a daily run query, which it used to execute without any problem.
The difference this morning was that an index which should be used, was not, instead a sequential read was executed, killing performance.
To solve the problem, I think I VACUUMed the table first (with option ANALYZE checked), which improved things a bit: an index was being used, but not the one I had expected. I've then had to REINDEX the index I wanted to be used (I can't remember whether I used RECREATE or not), after which the query executed like it used to.
Now my question is: why did I have to do this explicitly? I thought the autovacuum-process handled vacuuming and analyzing of tables and indexes automatically?

text: So building off the Obama's remarks thread, Relentless specifically, what is it precisely that you say Kenneth Copeland contradicts in the Word of God? How about 1 or 2 specific examples. I shall start with what you said about the power of words is nonsense (paraphrase); Proverbs 18 v 21 (and also v 20) talk about how God put the power of life and death in our tongues, and we will eat the fruit of the words we speak. Jesus said someplace in Matthew that by our words are we either justified or condemned. Mark 11 v 23 says it is words that move the mountains. So those would be 3 examples of God telling us words are quite important. And I didn't write those Scriptures and neither did KC, but rather Jesus is the Author. David said over and over in the Psalms, I will say of the Lord, and then God is/would do/would give/would be whatever David had said. The Word says that at the word of Joshua the sun stood still and at the word of Elisha miracles were done. When you start to study it out there are myriad instances of God talking about our words and how they bring miracles, healing, victory, protection, etc.

Forecasting Small-Area Agricultural Incomes Using a CGE Model of the Australian Economy
In this paper the ORANI model, which is a large computable general equilibrium (hereafter, CGE) model of the Australian economy, is used to generate forecasts of agricultural incomes for the south-western region of Victoria. ORANI is first solved for the effects of an economic scenario on commodity output responses in a geographically defined agricultural industry of the model which encompasses the region. These responses are then used to generate output indexes in local government areas (LGAs) in the region according to their base-period commodity mixes. Finally, these projections are converted into real farm income forecasts. Our methodology breaks new ground in combining short- and long-term forecasts, and in disaggregating forecasts for a national agricultural industry to the LGA level.

Inflow at Outflow error message
Hello all.
I have built a simple rotating mesh. It is a cylindrical pipe, rotating about an axis parallell to its axis and offset by about 7 millimeters. The pipe is 30 mm long and 5 mm in dia.
I keep getting this error message that says something about inflow detected as some outflow boundaries where mass fluxes have been forced to zero. I think I understand what it means, but I don't know what might be causing this. I have been through the model several times. Can anyone help?
Re: Inflow at Outflow error message
Just to remind you that an outlet boundary is what it means: the flow is going out and is not allowed to come from the boundary inside the computational domain. If, by chance, you do not have any kind of back flow in the vicinity of that boundary, you'll be fine. If yes, then you will get this warning in the .info file and you may need to change the type of boundary condition (for example of pressure type) or put the outlet boundary further downstream (which means more cells and hence higher run times).

"As one of White Ribbon's original UK supporters I'm delighted by the progress being made to stop women dying in childbirth; half as many women are dying today as when we began ten years ago. It is every woman's right to have a safe birth, and to be treated with care and respect. It is every girl's right to have a childhood free of early marriage and pregnancy – and to have a mum who survives to nurture her through life"

Neodesha Daily Sun, Thursday, Dec. 13, 1906, Pg. 1
Vol. VIII, No. 31
John B. Keys, for years a prominent figure in the history of Neodesha, died at his residence on Third and Mill street yesterday, Dec. 12, 1906, at 6:50 p. m. Funeral arrangements have not been made as it is not known when absent members of the family will be able to get here. Funeral announcement tomorrow.
Neodesha Daily Sun, Thursday, Dec. 22, 1906, Pg. 3
Vol. VIII, No. 39
John B. Keys, one of the most widely known and highly respected citizens of Neodesha, is no more, having died at his home at the corner of 3d and Mill streets, Wednesday, Dec. 12, 1906, at 7:55 p. m. He had been in declining health for some months, his condition at times threatening the worst. Being quite sick for two or three weeks, a fatal culmination was regarded probable, but the sudden end which came was unexpected and produced a shock to relatives and friends. The funeral was held Saturday at the residence, conducted by Rev. C. P. Dubois, of the Presbyterian church and the attendance was large. Interment was made in the city cemetery. At the grave the old soldiers of Humphrey Post, of which the departed was a member, performed the last sad rites in a very solemn and impressive manner, the burial service being according to the ritual of that veteran organization.
John Baker Keys was born at Bladensburg, Knox county, Ohio, July 27, 1838, thus making him at his death 68 years, 4 months and 15 days of age. He came West in 1860, locating at LeRoy, Kansas, and August 3, 1861, at Leavenworth, he enlisted in Company E, Fifth Kansas Cavalry, in which he served until September 8, 1864, when he was honorably discharged from the army. October 7, 1867, Mr. Keys was married to Miss Belle John, who survive him, together with two sons and three daughters, as follows: Mrs. Minnie E. Lowder of Martinsville, Ind.; Frank W. Keys, Mrs. S. E. Stephens, John Earl Keys and Miss Besse Keys of Neodesha. Mr. and Mrs. Keys were the first white couple married in Neodesha township.
In the early history of Neodesha Mr. Keys figured quite conspicuously. In 1867 Dr. Allen McCartey formed a partnership with Alexander K. Phelon and they erected a large log cabin near the foot of Little Bear Mound, less than one mile from the present site of Neodesha, and opened a trading post, or supply depot, for the Osage Indians, on whose reservation the post was located. Recognizing the natural advantages of the Verdigris and Fall rivers—the two partners, with John B. Keys and Robert Futhey, who arrived at the trading post in October, 1868, formed a town company and purchased the original townsite of Neodesha, paying therefore $400.00. This was the signal for wild excitemet and all claims near that of Keys and Futhey were held at enormous figures. The survey of the townsite took place July 12 and 13, 1869. The town company gave away many lots to persons who would build thereon. Dr. McCartney still resides here and he is the only surviving member of the original townsite company.
Keys and Futhey erected a flouring mill on the Verdigris river north of the wagon bridge, just southeast of town in the spring of 1871, which they operated for a number of years, the mill finally burning down in 1888. Mr. Keys was mayor of Neodesha in 1886 and for one or two other terms. He was owner and manager of an extensive lumber yard here in the 80s. He had always been interested in various enterprises and at his death was president of the V. V. V. Brick & Tile Co. and the Neodesha Crystal Ice Co., being president of both since they were organized. Mr. Keys leaves to his devoted wife and children four or five hundred acres of valuable farm land within two miles of Neodesha, besides about thirty choice business and residence lots in this city. In 1903 he engaged in the oil business and developed his own farms, sinking 17 wells, of which 14 were paying producers. These wells are now being pumped.
In the death of Mr. Keys the community loses one of its very earliest settlers and most substantial citizens. He was an honest, conscientious man, true to his convictions, always advocating and standing up for what he believed to be just and right. As a husband and father to those left behind his memory will be cherished to the end.

Crews plan to begin working on two prescribed burns near Tusayan beginning Tuesday and will likely continue burning for several days providing weather conditions remain favorable for meeting forest health objectives and smoke dispersion.
Ignitions will occur tomorrow on 250 acres of slash piles on the Flying J prescribed fire project located just west of Grand Canyon airport. On Wednesday operations will shift to the Reed prescribed fire project where fire officials hope to treat approximately 600 acres using a broadcast burn. This unit is located about 6 miles east of Tusayan.

Mike Lancaster, Managing Director
If there is such a thing as a normal route into racing, Mike Lancaster did not follow it. A mechanical engineer by training, he spent ten years working on film cameras, migrating to video electronics as the camera profession went digital. He became an electronics engineer, developing professional studio and news cameras. He never stopped being interested in racing during all this, and teaming up with another friend who was a software engineer, he started to design ECUs and electronic controls for race engines. He started an electronic company, Pectel Control Systems, and made the engine controls for the successful Group A Rallye Ford Cosworth Sierras. His reputation and results on the track led him to establish Advanced Engine Research in 1998 and the successful merging of the electronic and mechanical aspects of engine design. He has helped solidify AER's reputation as a company with capabilities significantly above traditional engine builders to produce state of the art bespoke engines and to design and supply engines to multiple open wheel series.
"I enjoy the competitive spirit and engineering challenges of racing and looking for non-traditional solutions. Motor racing is a very immediate business. It encompasses the highest levels of engineering and you are able to see your successes and failures in real time. We have a number of key people here at AER. We have strong people in engineering, electronics, manufacturing and assembly. In assembly alone, we have people experienced in building engines for F1, F3, Sportscars, WRC, BTTC and MotoGP. Our company is built around people who have extensive experience working on top level engines and I count myself very lucky to be a part of it."
Andrew Saunders, Engineering Manager
Andrew Saunders had a hands on beginning in the racing business. His father owned a garage and he grew up detailing cylinder heads, rebuilding engines and welding broken frames. After college, he set up his own business doing specialist engine and gearbox rebuilds and ran that for ten years. He went to Ilmor Engineering in 2001 and was the track support manager on the McLaren Formula One test team, spending 26 weeks of the year in Spain testing and the rest of the time back home in charge of reliability testing and engineering for the Mercedes F1 engine. He periodically did Formula One races and worked with Kimi Raikenen, David Coulthard, Jean Alsei, Alex Wurz, Pedro de la Rossa, Pablo Montoya, Lewis Hamilton, and Fernando Alonso during his six years at Ilmor. In 2007, AER hired him to be their European track support manager. He went on to spend a number of years dividing his time as track support manager for AER's engines in the American Le Mans Series and ongoing development work, including gasoline direct injection as was used on Dyson Racing's four-cylinder turbocharged two liter LMP1 engine in the ALMS. He is currently the Engineering Manager, overseeing multiple projects including the P60 LMP1 engine, the current supplying of engines to the GP3 series and the upcoming engine supply for the 2015 Indy Lights Series.
"In Formula One now, you find yourself being directed down a narrow path – you are a specialist in one thing and they are not interested in your opinion in anything else. Whereas with AER, you can make a difference: you have input into the electronics, the engine reliability, the engine design, the way track support is done – you can make a difference in protocol and procedure. You can be dynamic here. A good idea can be implemented in a number of days.
"When you work at AER and with race teams like Dyson Racing, you are an intrinsic part. You are working on electronics, the engine, the drive train, the race strategy. It is very rewarding."
Nick Jordan, Support Manager
One of the secrets of successful businesses is having the right mix of employees who are at the very leading edge of knowledge balanced with people who have a life time of experience. Theory grows best on the foundation of experience. Nick Jordan has been in racing forty-four years. "I did a five-year apprenticeship at the John McBain Ford dealership in Scotland. Jimmy Clark use to have the cars Colin Chapman loaned him serviced there. That is where I got the bug. After the apprenticeship, I joined the merchant marine for a year, but that was too boring. I came home, got engaged to my girlfriend who is still my wife. Newly married, I chucked the tool box in my old car and drove down to London and started knocking on doors. My mother-in-law thought I was mad. I started working for a chap named Dave Brodie. That was 1971 and Dave and I are still very good friends. He drove a Ford Escort with a BDA engine in it and I prepared the Escort and he also had a Lotus Elan which I prepared."
And Nick has been working non-stop ever since. He has worked with a large number of drivers including Eddie Cheever, Arie Luyendyk, Michael Andretti, Stefan Johansson, Roberto Guerrrero, and Danny Sullivan. A year after moving to London, he got a job with Tom Wheatcroft who owned Donington Park, preparing cars for driver Roger Williamson. That was followed by a stint at Modus Cars, building Formula Three, Super Vee and Formula Atlantic cars, and working with driver Tony Brise. He and Jo Marquart founded Argo Cars in 1977 and for eighteen years they built sports cars, formula cars and prototypes for IMSA and Le Mans. That was followed by a stint at TOM'S Toyota and in 1998, he started working for Lola, where he stayed for eight years and first met Mike Lancaster and Chris and Rob Dyson. Nick added to his extensive resume with a three-year stint at Honda Motorsport in their Formula Two program and then with Ralph Firman on his Formula Ford project, when he received a call from AER to add his expertise to their growth. "When I first met Mike many years back, I felt good at our first meeting, I feel privileged and proud to be working here at AER. Being involved with Chris and his father Rob is a pleasure. This is a good place to work. There are very good people here who are passionate about what they do."
Nick remembers when he was field manager at Lola and was the liaison between the teams and the engineers at Lola. "I would jump on a plane to America, do the race meeting and work on any issues or problems we had, then take the Sunday night red- eye back across to the UK, straight up to Lola on Monday morning from Heathrow and have a meeting with the senior engineers on all the issues and then I would go home and catch some sleep late afternoon, and go back up to Lola the next day. There were no days off. That was just the way it was. But that's motorsports isn't it!"
