5-Light Tester: Low cost way to make sure you have enough volts on the fence to keep animals in and predators out.
Ground rod and clamp: Galvanized rod does not rust or corrode
How to Use
To connect to battery
- Plug 12v battery leads into bottom of energizer.
- Attach red clip to positive terminal on battery.
- Attach black clip to negative terminal on battery.
To connect to fence and ground rod:
- From the Wiring Harness, connect red lead's bare wire end to fence terminal and clip other end of lead to fence
- From the Wiring Harness, connect black lead's bare wire end to ground terminal and clip other end of lead to ground rod.
- Test fence with 5 Light Fence Tester.
To use light tester WITHOUT ground probeFor Fence:
- Touch the top of the tester to the electrified fence you wish to test.
- Push the button (if applicable).
- The tester will light up according to the voltage at that location on the fence.
- Turn off energizer.
- Disconnect ground wire and fence wire from energizer.
- Turn on energizer.
- Touch the top of the tester onto the top of the fence terminal on the energizer.
- Push the button (if applicable).
- The tester should light up to 6000 volts or more.
To use light tester WITH ground probeFor Fence:
- Insert the probe of the tester into the soil.
- Remove your hand from the metal portion of the probe (to avoid a shock).
- To get a voltage reading, touch the metal clip (on the top of the tester) to the electrified fence you wish to test.
- The tester will light up according to the voltage at that location on the fence.
- Remove the tester from the fence and the probe from the soil. Do not remove the probe by pulling the insulated wire.
- Turn off energizer.
- Disconnect ground wire and fence wire from energizer.
- Turn on energizer.
- Touch probe from tester to ground terminal on energizer (be sure to hold onto the insulated wire and not the metal probe!)
- At same time touch the fence hook on tester to fence terminal on energizer.
- The tester should light up to 6000 volts or more.
Ground rod
- Allow 3 ft of rod per joule of energy released.
- Use multiple 6 ft rods for large energizers and 3 ft rods for smaller energizers (and lightning diverters).
- Make sure to put the ground rod all the way into the ground.
- Clip black clip onto ground rod.
Ground rod: When installing more than one ground rod, space the ground rods apart 2 feet longer than the rod. Example 3' rods should be spaced 6' apart.
To Reduce Risk & Liability
- Never place your head or upper spine near an electrified wire. Accidental head or neck contact can occur when pushing a voltage probe into the soil. Be careful when doing so to avoid head-to-wire contact!
- Never attempt to step over or climb through an energized fence of any kind.
- Never encourage anyone to touch an electric fence.
HotShock 5To determine if the fault is with the fence or the energizer...
- Test the energizer first
- Turn off energizer.
- Disconnect ground wire and the fence wire.
- Turn energizer back on.
- With fence tester, put the ground probe (or clamp) to the ground terminal on the energizer and the metal loop (or positive clamp) at the top of the tester to the fence/positive terminal. The reading you get tells you how well the energizer is working without any other variables. If there is a very low voltage (under 4000v) or no voltage, then the energizer may have a problem. If the voltage is high (greater than 4000v) then the trouble lies with your fence. Most energizers put out between 5000v and 8000v when there is no load (i.e. no fence hooked up).
- Check that the 110v outlet is "live" by using a plug-in drill or test light.
- If the test light works and the energizer does not, call Premier.
If the energizer is faulty and you are using it as a battery unit you need to learn if the battery or the energizer is the problem…
- If it's a 12 volt energizer carry the unit to a nearby vehicle and attach the input cords carefully to the vehicle's battery.
- If the energizer now works, then your fencer's battery needs to be recharged or replaced.
- If the energizer does not work, then you should call Premier re. repairs.
If the fence is at fault, then you must find the fault(s) and fix them. Here's how to start this process:
If you have a Fault Finder you can simply touch the fence with the Fault Finder at various points along the electric fence(s). The Fault Finder will tell you at each point which direction to go in to locate the problem. Move in that direction testing as you go and you will arrive at the problem.
If you lack a Fault Finder…
- Walk or drive along the fence looking for any point in which the energized wires touch the soil, a steel post or a steel wire. On HT wire fences, check the wires at braces to see if they are touching a hot wire. On netting, look for a hot wire touching the metal stake at the bottom of the plastic posts. Also look for damaged insulators.
- If the fence can be separated into several parts (by switches or by disconnecting parts of it), you can locate the problem by beginning at the far end and then progressively turn off or disconnect the sections of fence. When the voltage on the remaining fence rises sharply, you've located the section(s) that's causing the problems.
- The alternative to (2.) is to begin at the fencer and progressively turn on sections of the fence. When the voltage suddenly drops you can assume that the problem is in the section most recently connected.
5-Light Tester: Make sure that the probe has not become separated from the black insulated wire. Cup your hands around the body of the tester to keep the sun's glare off the lights of the tester.
Ground Rod: If you are not getting a good reading on your fence: Make sure to have the ground rod all the way into the ground. Make sure you have a good connection to the ground rod. Make sure to have a good connection on the energizer and fence.
30-day warranty for all batteries.

I've had this a few weeks now. So far so good, except for the ground rod. The bottom of it is flat, not pointed. For anyone who lives anywhere near Pennsylvania, this means it's virtually impossible to hammer the rod into the ground more than 6 inches or so, because you hit rock, and the flat bottom can't break through nor go around it, like a pointed bottom could.
Trent S from Nebraska
Easy set up and plenty of zap!
Phil C from Massachusetts
Great product just the A/C adapter died after a week, rest of unit is great on battery
Dennis M from Idaho
Works as advertized and the kit has everything I needed to set up a solid, safe electro-fence to keep poultry in, and the dogs out. I am very happy with the product and the delivery.
P.S. It would has been nice to have more instruction on how to connect leads to fence and ground.
Holly I from GA
We are very pleased with this kit. It works with our E'Stop 9/42/6 electric net. It has powered the net and kept our goats in and our neighbors dogs out. It has worked as we expected. Shipping was fast.

We're a small-ish company centered around online gaming currencies. While we are not a game ourself, we are a site that allows people to trade online currencies between different games (think LindeX - the official Second Life Linden Dollar exchange - but with many, many different games instead of just one).
Our primary (and pretty much only) audience will be gamers. This will vary from simple online text based games (like torn.com) to more complex browser games (similar to runescape.com) and even to full blown mmorpgs (similar to World of Warcraft).
Any game that is played online and has a currency that can be traded between members (and their T.O.S. allow it) is fair game - and those players are pretty much what our audience will consist of.
We have a model of the general structure of the site that we're looking for.
Feel free to poke around our site (uni-credits.net) and get the 'flow' of it.
What we're looking for is the basic sort of frame in the screenshot above. We want some user stats on the left side, along with a menu which will contain a dozen or so links. We'd like 4 main 'buttons' somewhere across the top (unless you have a better idea!) that will serve as the main content areas of the site. The text at the top right (username, home, logout) is not necessary, but can be added if it flows with your design. The main content area (shown in the screenshot under the heading "Offers - Made by You") will contain varying amounts of text. The main portions of the main content area are the header text "Offers - Made by You", the sub-links "Offers You Made" and "Offers Made to You", and the text area below that "No offers made by you".

Everyone has heard about Tempur-Pedic mattresses. The famous Tempur-Pedic mattress is known for its design in the way that it curves and shapes around the sleeper's body. Best Deal On Tempurpedic Cloud in Johannesburg south the brand carries different models and designs for different preferences. A lot of research has been put into these mattresses to ensure the quality and effectiveness of a great mattress. Because of the advanced research and design of the mattress, Cheap Tempurpedic Beds the pricing on them can be much higher than most people expect to pay for a mattress. The key to being able to afford a Tempur-Pedic mattress is to look for a Tempur-Pedic mattress sale.
Sales allow consumers to purchase these mattresses for lower than retail prices. This also makes it so people that wouldn't otherwise be able to afford it can afford a mattress that is comfortable and state of the art. The first step I would take in looking for a Tempur-Pedic mattress sale is by collecting store ads as they come in the mail. Furniture and mattress stores often mail out flyers and catalogues of their store items and display current or upcoming sales. These catalogues can prepare you to know about the sale and to also price shop based on the different store ads you receive.
How to Find the Best Tempur-Pedic Mattress Sale
The first step in finding the most comfortable price for you for your mattress is by visiting a store and ensuring this is the mattress for you. You should also see which of the types of Tempur-Pedic mattresses you prefer, as well if you are interested in any of the extras they offer.

Do you research online, Tempur Mattress Sale and then purchase the newspapers with the stores ads in them. Do some comparisons and when the best deal comes around – be sure to jump on it.

Tempurpedic Mattresses are considered the top of the line memory foam mattresses anywhere. Unfortunately, the prices of tempurpedic mattress aren't considered cheap and many people can't afford a tempurpedic mattress
It used to be each distributor and dealer of tempurpedic products set their own retail price and if you shopped around hard enough, you may find one that sells relatively cheap or at a discount.
However recently, Tempur-Pedic decided to change its policy. All tempurpedic mattress will be sold at the same retail prices so now it is really pointless to search around for the cheapest tempurpedic mattress.
The reason for this is that Tempur-Pedic wants to assure their customers that no matter where you get their products, it is always the same price and quality. That means no extra benefits added by the dealers such as free shipping, extra pillow, extra tempurpedic mattress topper etc to entice customers to buy. The same rules applies for all dealers.
The other alternative to buy other memory foam mattresses instead. Though I still prefer tempurpedic mattress, there are some people who cannot afford the prices.
Now, there are about a dozen different types of memory foam mattress sold, probably a lot more than I can count. So how do I get it that is cheap and comparable to tempurpedic mattress?
The only way to know is to test and that means paying a visit to your local retail store and trying it out first before buying. The most important thing is you feel comfortable and make sure there is a free trial or a back money guarantee so that you can always return it if you feel the memory foam mattress does not suit you.

Ray Bradbury's moving recollection of a vanished golden era remains one of his most enchanting novels. Dandelion Wine stands out in the Bradbury literary canon as the author's most deeply personal work, a semi-autobiographical recollection of a magical small-town summer in 1928.
Twelve-year-old Douglas Spaulding knows Green Town, Illinois, is as vast and deep as the whole wide world that lies beyond the city limits. It is a pair of brand-new tennis shoes, the first harvest of dandelions for Grandfather's renowned intoxicant, the distant clang of the trolley's bell on a hazy afternoon. It is yesteryear and tomorrow blended into an unforgettable always. But as young Douglas is about to discover, summer can be more than the repetition of established rituals whose mystical power holds time at bay. It can be a best friend moving away, a human time machine who can transport you back to the Civil War, or a sideshow automaton able to glimpse the bittersweet future.
Come and savor Ray Bradbury's priceless distillation of all that is eternal about boyhood and summer.
In a career spanning more than seventy years, Ray Bradbury, who died on June 5, 2011 at the age of 91, inspired generations of readers to dream, think, and create. A prolific author of hundreds of short stories and close to fifty books, as well as numerous poems, essays, operas, plays, teleplays, and screenplays, Bradbury was one of the most celebrated writers of our time. His groundbreaking works include Fahrenheit 451, The Martian Chronicles, The Illustrated Man, Dandelion Wine, and Something Wicked This Way Comes. He wrote the screen play for John Huston´s classic film adaptation of Moby Dick, and was nominated for an Academy Award. He adapted sixty-five of his stories for television´s The Ray Bradbury Theater, and won an Emmy for his teleplay of The Halloween Tree. He was the recipient of the 2000 National Book Foundation Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters, the 2004 National Medal of Arts, and the 2007 Pulitzer Prize Special Citation, among many honors.
Throughout his life, Bradbury liked to recount the story of meeting a carnival magician, Mr. Electrico, in 1932. At the end of his performance Electrico reached out to the twelve-year-old Bradbury, touched the boy with his sword, and commanded, "Live forever!" Bradbury later said, "I decided that was the greatest idea I had ever heard. I started writing every day. I never stopped."

When it comes to IT, China likes to build big, whether it's the world's largest supercomputer or city-size complexes dedicated to cloud computing. Now, China is near to adding something else to its list of big tech things: the world's largest market for PCs.
China is set to surpass the U.S. in PC shipments either this year or the next, according to market estimates by analysts.
When that PC market line is crossed, it will be one more benchmark illustrating the increasing spending power of China's 1.3 billion people. But China's growing PC market will also matter to U.S. companies, particularly Microsoft .
More than 95% of Chinese PCs today run Windows, and well over 80% of enterprises PCs are using Microsoft Office, Stuart McKee, the national technology officer in Microsoft's public sector, told a special U.S. House hearing Monday by the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform on high-tech growth policies.
"China will soon be the largest PC market in the world," said McKee, in his testimony, at this on-the-road hearing held in San Jose, Calif. But the piracy rate for the business software industry in China stands at about 80% "and is even higher for Microsoft products," he said.
McKee urged the committee to develop a comprehensive strategy for dealing with piracy.
Both IDC and Gartner expect China to surpass the U.S. in PC shipments in the near future.
In 2010, the U.S. had 20.4% of the worldwide PC market, with 71.7 million shipments, versus China's 19.3% share at 67.8 million shipments, according to Gartner. The analysis firm believes China PC shipments will exceed the U.S. this year if China's market grows at 12%.
IDC believes that China will surpass the U.S. in total shipments in 2012, and it is forecasting PC shipments this year in China to increase 10.8% year-over-year, versus 4.7% in the U.S. It put U.S. shipments last year at 75 million, and in China, 63.8 million.
Once China crosses and surpasses the U.S. in PC shipments, a market the U.S. created, will it matter at all to the American psyche?
One person who doesn't think so is Jonathan Hill, assistant dean and director of special programs and projects at Pace University's Seidenberg School of Computer Science and Information Systems in New York.
Analysts and first adopter users are much more focused on mobile devices, -- tablets and smart phones than on laptops or desktops, said Hill. But if at any point, Chinese software makers begin to dominate, "then you would have a significant event for the U.S. psyche."
Hill doesn't see a Chinese operating system that can replace Windows at this point, but probably because the emphasis in China has been on mobile. He points to China Web service company Baidu's interest in developing a mobile OS as one sign of this interest.
Much of the U.S. manufacturing of PCs is now done in China. Dell has major operations in the country, as does Hewlett-Packard. IBM sold its PC division to a Chinese company, Lenovo.
The shift in manufacturing raises questions whether the U.S. will continue to lead in development of hardware and software.
Robert G. Vambery, a professor of marketing and international business also at Pace, sees China being at the forefront of development in the next decade or two.
"Chinese scientists and engineers have been and continue to be trained in the most advanced aspects of the field at U.S. universities as well as research and development centers," Vambery said. To fill mid-level engineering and production control management needs the Chinese have been and continue to train as much as five times as many engineers as does the U.S., he said.
Rob Enderle, an analyst at the Enderle Group, called China's ascension in PC shipments "significant," but said it was "only one of a number of trends suggesting China is replacing the U.S. as the top world power."

RSPCA Cymru is appealing for information about two rabbits and a guinea pig that were found dumped in cardboard boxes in the car park of a community centre in Caerphilly county borough.
The animals – one grey rabbit, one white rabbit and a black and white guinea pig – were found in two boxes outside Plas Mawr community centre on Sunday 9 March 2014. The boxes were labelled "rabbit" and "rabbit and guinea pig".
Following a call from a member of the public they were collected by animal collection officer (ACO) Sarah Davies who took them for a health check at the local RSPCA clinic in Merthyr Tydfil. The guinea pig was in good condition but the rabbits had a number of health problems. All of the animals are currently in the care of the RSPCA while further enquiries are carried out.
ACO Davies said: "All of these animals are friendly and are obviously used to being handled. So we would like to find out where they came from.
"People need to realise that abandoning an animal is an offence. We constantly try to get this message across to people and yet we continue to see animals being abandoned without a moment's thought for their welfare. People must seek help if they are having difficulties looking after their pet. There is no shame in asking for help, it is the right thing to do.
"Anyone with information about where the rabbits came from should contact the RSPCA inspector information line and leave a message for me in confidence on 0300 123 8018."

Royals to visit fire-ravaged Slave Lake, Alta. 623 words
EDS: Full write-thru. Moves with RT-MAIN. May update.
By Shannon Proudfoot and Codi Wilson
Postmedia News
An Alberta community ravaged by a devastating fire this spring may get a morale boost Wednesday, when the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge drop in to hear their stories and see the damage firsthand.
Prince William and Kate have added a brief stop in the community of Slave Lake, Alta., to their Canadian tour, it was announced Tuesday.
The royal newlyweds, who have been criss-crossing the country on a nine-day tour, wanted to see for themselves what residents have endured, said Kevin MacLeod, the Queen's Canadian secretary, who is organizing the tour.
"Since Slave Lake is en route from Yellowknife to Calgary, it was deemed very important that their Royal Highnesses actually visit with local (residents) and see firsthand what they're experiencing," MacLeod said.
"When His Royal Highness made his remarks on Parliament Hill on July 1, he went out of his way to thank all those who have been affected and those rescue workers who have been working tirelessly in Quebec, in Manitoba and in Saskatchewan, as well as Alberta."
More than 300 homes were destroyed by the wildfire that swept through the northern Alberta town on May 15. All 7,000 members of the town were evacuated.
An estimated 40 per cent of the homes in town were destroyed, along with key buildings such as the town hall, public library and local radio station.
It was one of several areas in Alberta where wildfires were raging at the time as dry conditions and high winds sparked blazes across the province.
The royals will touch down at Slave Lake Airport and will be greeted by Premier Ed Stelmach and Mayor Karina Pillay-Kinnee around 11:30 a.m. local time.
From there, they will tour the town and view the most heavily devastated areas. They will meet at Northern Lakes College later in the afternoon with about 50 families who were affected by the disaster.
"Throughout the Royal Tour, The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have demonstrated that they are caring and compassionate people who love this country," Premier Stelmach said in a news release.
"The fires that ravaged Slave Lake and the surrounding area began as a tragedy, but have turned into a story highlighting the strength, determination and courage of Slave Lake and area residents as they rebuild their fire ravaged town.
"I look forward to joining the Royal Couple in Slave Lake on Wednesday as emergency workers and families share in the remarkable stories of hope that have emerged from the ashes of Slave Lake."
The royal couple are only expected to be in Slave Lake for an hour or two.
MacLeod said there is a dual focus to the visit.
"One is certainly to meet and thank the rescue workers, firefighters and emergency co-ordinators. (The royals) will also be driving to the sites and there will be a gathering of families who have been affected."
Officials said the royals didn't announce the visit early because they didn't want to be a distraction from rebuilding efforts.
Kate and Will want to thank rescue workers for their "incredible efforts," MacLeod said.
Former Slave Lake mayor Ray Stern said rumours of the visit have been buzzing around town for the last few days, generating excitement.
"It's something exciting, it's something to distract your mind from the issues at hand, the task at hand, so I think it will be wonderful," he said. "You always see that stuff on television and the newspapers, but living in a small, rural town, you don't expect to see those kind of folks here."
Community resident Fred Karpa said he thinks it is important the couple see the condition of the town.
"They could see what we went through — see the devastation and understand why it's been such a big news story. There were a lot of people left homeless," he said.

Philly Radio Station Spotlights David McMillin '06 & Fort Frances
April 23, 2013
"The Chicago indie rock band Fort Frances released its debut album, The Atlas, in early 2011. The band releases a new EP, Harbour, today," notes the website of Philadelphia's WXPN. The non-commercial, public radio station operated by the University of Pennsylvania features the song "I Had Love" today as its featured download.
"Fronted by lead vocalist David McMillin, Fort Frances have a warm, melodic and versatile sound, filled with gorgeous songs that vary in dynamics," according to the station. "There's a little bit of a Wilco vibe, a little bit of David Gray, a little bit of roots and rock and roll. You definitely want to keep your eyes on this band."
Access the track here.
A 2006 graduate of DePauw University, David McMillin returned to his alma mater as a guest of the Performing Arts Series, April 9 - 11. The visit included a performance and songwriting workshop.

FuelCell Energy: Cowen Sees Bright Future, So It Downgrades the Stock
- Order Reprints
- Print Article
Yesterday, all things fuel-cell related--think Plug Power (PLUG) and FuelCell Energy (FCEL)--got hammered as investors soured on the once-hot sector.
Shares of Plug Power plummeted 42% yesterday, Ballard Power Systems (BLDP) tumbled 26%, Hydrogenics (HYGS) fell 15% and FuellCell Energy fell 17% even as it reported in-line earnings.
After a day to digest yesterday's action, Cowen's Robert Stone has downgraded the shares of FuelCell Energy. He explains why:
We believe the recently completed fuel cell parks in Bridgeport, CT and Korea should open a $12B DG opportunity, and hydrogen co-generation adds $3B. Orders in H1 should drive Q4:F14 revenue and GM to EBITDA break-even. We raise our PT to $2.70 (vs. $2.00), but lower our rating to Market Perform (2) from Outperform (1) as we feel expected progress this year is priced in around the current level.
Stifel's Jeffrey Osborne and team raised their price target to $4.10 from $2.30 following yesterday's earnings report from FuelCell Energy. They explain why:
FuelCell Energy shares have seen strong performance recently on renewed interest in the fuel-cell sector more broadly and commentary from utilities in the U.S. and abroad around seeking base load distributed generation resources. Management's tone around large contracts, core to our thesis, was encouraging, with the team noting they are "waiting on final customer and regulatory approval" and "inquiries and activity levels globally remain high." We are tracking close to 100MW of large scale (>5MW) projects in the U.S. in which we believe the company is well positioned given generation costs of ~$0.10 kWh and the base load nature of their product. We expect sizable wins over the coming months to drive further investor interest in the stock and pave a path to profitability.
Shares of FuelCell Energy have gained 3.1% to $3.38, while Plug Power has jumped 16% to $7.00, Ballard Power Systems has advanced 6.5% to $5.43 and Hydrogenics is little changed at $28.79.

So I work at a bank. And at this bank there are well, rules and regulations and policies etc. And obviously one rule is be courteous to the customers. Easy enough for me I'm a nice person. Well I helped a lady today and after I finished her transaction she commented on my hair. I style my hair in a faux-hawk. She had said "I'm glad my children never did anything crazy like that. They read their bible everyday and don't have any tattoos either," and pointed at my hair "they follow the teachings in the bible. If you read the bible it says that your body belongs to god and you shouldn't damage it in any way, read your bible everyday ok?" Now what I wanted to say was "look lady, I dont read the bible, never have never will, and contrary to your single-minded beliefs about how non-believers are 'inhuman-beasts,' Im not a drug addict, I've never tried drugs and I've never been in trouble with the law. All that was accomplished without your bible." But of course I like my job and didnt say that and well I didnt really know what to say back except have a nice day. Just love those days. Anyone else been in that position and it just kills you that you cant respond with what your thinking? Any other day I would have spoke up but alas, I need my job.

Even if she did it out on the street, it's a good time to emulate the Buddhist and show a pleasant side. If you hassle her back, which is what she really wants, you'd just prove the stereotype she has of you. Better to blow her mind with kindness.
My girl friend and I were working at pizza hut as delivery drivers. While we are not out driving we are usually folding boxes or cutting pizzas and occasionally we serve customers at the front counter. My girlfriend was developing a sore wrist from folding so many boxes (think RSI) and so she had her wrist bound in a compression bandage to help it heal. She served a Christian of some description and he ended up physically grabbing her arm and holding her at the counter while he prayed for her arm to heal.
Needless to say, her arm is now healed although I doubt the prayer did anything but frighten her for a couple of hours afterwards.
Story is somewhat related...thought I would share. In answer to your question, no. I think Christian's look at me and just assume I am also Christian because they generally just leave me alone... Did have a conversation with a wacko at the bus station once though...
I agree with killing her with kindness, but the way she worded it was well not completely offensive but rude. If she wanted to talk about it I wouldn't mind but I was nothing but nice to her in the beginning. And of course they gotta believe their right cause they got the faith and its the only way. And I think the prayer guy grabbing your girlfriends arm is just coincidence. If it was just sore it'll get better in no time if shes healthy. Sprained an ankle one day, I took care of it with ice, stretching, warm pads etc. next day I was running just fine. Know how the body works and you can do anything. Although I gotta say I would have been freaked out too if someone grabbed me and my wrist was better in a few hours.
Your response was generally the right one. Taking the high road is cool. She seems to know that her ways are headed for the trash heap. You have to love the perspective of age in knowing that they way you and everyone that you knew lived is going by the wayside. Well doesn't that beat all, I'm irrelevant.
But if you really don't give a fuck, and the job is temp until... the response that would help you keep the job and allow you to say fuck off is, "Is there anything else banking related that I could help you with?" It's professional and you'd have to have your head way up your ass to not recognize it as "Kick rocks lady."
I think firm but fair is the proper approach in this kind of situation. In hindsight it's easy, but you could have said something like "with respect, my appearance is none of your business."
If it was your business, in a hypothetical - you could have retorted with: " Well you read your bible, yet you're a deluded, not to mention bigoted old bitch, now get outta my shop you crazy dingbat."
I think firm but fair might get one fired or at least a few uncomfortable moments in the supervisor's office. You're hired to do your job not spar with unpleasant customers. Most companies expect employees to always present a pleasant demeanor to clients and customers. Anything less means you don't understand your role in the company.
Well see I could probably get by with some of the above mentioned responses, like what derek said. My managers are while professional pretty laid back. Don't get me wrong they do discipline for policy violations and such but they would probably just tell me "your response was acceptable but maybe next time go easy" or something like that. That's usually a typical day though. This just irked me more than usual.
I most likely would have told her "well, lets just pray your kids get a job as good as mine. Have a nice day now." After that there's not much she can do unless she wanted to get openly ugly with it. If she did I would just play dumb and be offended, lol.
I rather like Gaytor's response. Personally, I would have ignored her and shot her a "fuck you" look as I asked for the next customer in line to step forward. Sometimes a subtle snub goes a long way.
Smile and nod and wish her a nice day. You did the right thing as a professional. In the case of Matt's girlfriend, though, that idiot crossed a line by grabbing her obviously injured wrist. That's assault.

Frequently Asked Home Office Rug Questions
Home Office Rugs by Ashley Furniture HomeStore
Stay productive—in style. Decorating your home office space with an area rug is the perfect solution to reining in the aesthetic you're going for in your office decor. Not to mention, the cozy feel truly puts the "home" in home office.
Whether you're an aficionado of modern styling or a fan of tried-and-true traditional style, you're sure to find the one that speaks to you with our huge selection of home office rugs. Not only does Ashley HomeStore offer hundreds of styles and sizes to choose from, we also offer a value you cannot beat. When you do rockstar work, you deserve to feel like one too. Complete your personal haven with a rug for your home office that speaks volumes with its dazzling design.
Where Should I Place a Rug in My Home Office?
A no-fail spot to set home office rugs is underneath your desk. After all, it's probably the spot you spend the most time in. Why not enjoy the cozy feel underfoot as much as you can? An office desk rug can comfort you as you work the daily grind.
If you have guest seating in your home office, setting an area rug underneath two guest chairs and table is another stylish option. This way, the rug can really take the focal point of the room.
Or, if your home office doubles as another space (such as a guest room, or exercise room), adding in a small rug can be a great way to define the two sections of your space. Small area rugs come in plentiful colors, textures and styles, so going with a smaller rug won't limit your options in the slightest. Just remember that with any rug you decide to go with, securing it with a rug pad is generally recommended for safety—especially for rugs atop hard surfaces.
What Sizes Do Home Office Rugs Come In?
From as small as 3' X 5' to as large as 9' X 12', we guarantee that you'll find just the right size rug for your office space. Medium-sized rugs, such as 5' X 7' or 7' X 9', are a popular choice for home offices since they add just enough pizzazz and texture without overcrowding your decor. Smaller options are great for adding just a touch of comfort, and larger rugs look amazing in spacious offices that have room to spare. Whatever your needs, we're sure that we have a rug size that will feel like a custom-made fit for your home. For more help on finding the perfect rug size, make sure to check out our rug sizing guide for tons of tips.
What Materials and Styles Can I Find in Home Office Rugs?
When searching for that perfect home office rug, one of the first details you'll want to factor in is general style. What style most closely resembles your current home office? Do you lean more towards the traditional or modern? You can narrow down on area rug pattern from there. For example, traditional rugs tend to feature florals and scrolling vines, while modern rugs tend to spotlight bold, graphic designs. And depending on your style and furniture choices, you might also need to consider shape. Traditional rugs tend to be rectangular, while modern or contemporary styles are also frequently made in round silhouettes.
Another detail to consider is color. If your home office space is teeming with neutral colors, then you're safe to choose any bold color or print that catches your eye. However, if you already have a very distinct color palette in your space, it may be best to stick to a color that complements the existing decor.
Lastly, you'll need to decide whether you prefer a flatweave rug, an ultra-plush rug or something that falls in between. If you have pets that shed a lot of hair, you may want to go with a rug that has a lower pile that's easier to vacuum, or a flatweave that's easy to lift, shake and vacuum.
Regardless of what's on your must-have list, trust that you can find it all and more at Ashley HomeStore.

Who am I to sneer at a gift from the google gods? Ever since I posted an interview with my sister called "Was It Bizarre Reading a Sex Scene Written By Your Sister?" people have been coming to this blog wanted to find out how to have sex with their sister. If writing about sister sex will boost my blog ranking, then what the heck, I'll write about sister sex. Or rather, write about writing sister sex.
We have such a strong taboo against incest that if you want to write about sibling sex in a mainstream novel, the incest must be motivated. In other words, there has to be a strong reason for it. Perhaps the children were shut away in an attic most of their lives and had only themselves to rely on. (If I remember correctly, this was the premise of V.C. Andrews' Flowers in the Attic.) Perhaps two sisters were molested by their father, and the only tender love they knew was the love they offered each other. Perhaps the parents saw nothing wrong with sibling sex, perhaps even encouraged it by having a brother and sister share a bed. (Of course, this complicates matters in that you have to show the parents' actions as being motivated. Why would they think this was an acceptable arrangement?)
The point is, if you want people to accept the incest, you have to give them more of a reason for siblings to have sex than simply because they wanted it. People want lots of things that are not acceptable, but that does not make the thing acceptable to lots of people. As always, with writing, you need to figure out what your motive is for writing the scene before you can figure out your characters' motivations. Are you trying to prove that sibling love is acceptable? That it's inevitable under certain circumstances? That love is love wherever you find it? That you have the hots for your sister or brother and want society's okay? Whatever you want to prove, you then have to write the scene with this objective in mind.
Once you get past the motivation and emotion leading up to the sibling sex scene, writing a sex scene with a sister is the same as any other sex scene. You show the two together, you show them connecting both emotionally and physically, and at the end you show how their interaction affected them.
The emotion does not have to be love on both sides. Nor does it have to be a single emotion. There could be love coupled with revulsion, love with fear, hate with sorrow. The emotion and how it affects the couple, how it changed them or defined them is what makes the scene compelling, and the more contradictory the emotions, the better.

Dental Bonding is a Simple Yet Diverse Way to Enhance Your Smile
Dental bonding is a cost-effective option.
Bonding is much more affordable than other alternatives. It can conceal stains, close gaps, rebuild cracks, and create a more consistent tooth shape and size.
Dental bonding requires minimal tooth alteration.
Whereas porcelain veneers require the tooth to be reshaped, dental bonding involves gentle etching prior to applying the composite resin material. As a result, bonding is reversible.
Dental bonding can be performed in a single visit.
Since there is minimal preparation, bonding material can be applied to the tooth in one appointment. The process usually takes under one hour.

MANYANI, Kenya — Record prices for ivory are fueling a sharp increase in poachers killing elephants, even those in protected areas, conservation groups warned Wednesday — the same day that Kenyan President Mwai Kibaki burned five tons of confiscated ivory to highlight the problem.

"We wish to firmly demonstrate to the world our determination to eliminate all forms of illegal trade in ivory," Kibaki told the crowd, before lighting the 335 tusks. "Poachers and illegal trades in ivory must know that their days are numbered."
"Let the fire shine a spotlight on this growing crisis and motivate us to take action against the bloody ivory trade," Shelley Waterland of the Born Free Foundation said in a statement. "No more sales of stockpiled ivory; no more tusks sold for a staggering $1,500 a kilo (2.2 pounds); no more rangers and wardens killed by poachers trying to protect wild elephants; no more ivory orphans."
"Right now there's been a flare-up in illegal killings that we haven't seen in 20 years," added Iain Douglas-Hamilton, founder of Save the Elephants, as he watched the pile burn. "Over the past two and half years the price of ivory has gone up crazily, evidently fuelled by demand from the far east."
With the price of ivory doubling in just two years, the killing last week of a matriarch elephant named Khadija added to the urgency raised by activists.
Slaughtered near Kenya's Samburu National Reserve, Khadija left eight orphans — "a story that is becoming way too familiar in northern Kenya," Save the Elephants said in a statement.
"Ironically, Khadija had been treated two weeks earlier for bullet wounds and had survived the attack," the group added. "This time, she died as she hobbled near the river, with four fresh bullets in her body. By midnight, under the full moon, her tusks had been cut out and the
(radio) collar she was wearing had been destroyed and buried in the sand."
Poaching in and around Samburu is so severe that the entire population is threatened. "The
number of mature males has consistently declined and mortality has impacted over half of the
family units," Save the Elephants stated. "Fourteen percent of the social groups do not contain a breeding female over the age of 25 years and are comprised of multiple orphan calves. With many of the large bulls poached, the elephant population is now so skewed that 70 percent of the population is female."
"Samburu has been a success story where elephants have been recovering from the excessive poaching of the 1970s and 1980s right up until 2008," said Douglas-Hamilton. "It has been one of Africa's few safe havens for elephants thanks to" enforcement by the Kenya Wildlife Service. "However, the new poaching spike, driven by new demand, is threatening one of the most peaceful elephant populations in Africa with highly habituated, trusting animals."
Save the Elephants placed some of the blame on Kenya itself. "Unfortunately, whenever an arrest is made, the sentence carried out by the Kenyan government tends to be minimal and poachers are often back 'in the bush' within 48 hours," it stated.PhotoBlog: Torching elephant tusks in Kenya
Born Free estimates that 35,000 elephants are killed each year for their ivory across Africa, some 15 percent of the total population.
Activists say a 1989 ban on trading ivory is no longer effective because of loopholes.
"Poaching is now so bad because that life-saving ban has been eroded by 'one-off' sales and the development of trading mechanisms, both of which send entirely the wrong message to poaching networks and the organized crime syndicates that operate them," said Waterland.
Born Free urged regulators to reimpose a full trading ban and "withdraw 'approved ivory trading nation' status from China and Japan," nations that receive illegal ivory shipments for use in carvings and traditional medicines.

A few years ago, I began the practice of choosing a word for the new year – one to focus on that seems to capture the essence of me at this particular point in time.
It's really a misnomer to say that I "choose" the word, because in reality, each time, the word has come to find me. This year has been no different as the word started noticeably washing over me during my pilgrimage to Ireland.
As 2009 headed to a close, the hints became more prevalent. I was noticing quotes* in doctor's offices and strangers were recommending books for me to read. In my observant style, I wrote down the quotes, listened to the signs and bought the books. I played with the words in my mind, but THE word did not seem to want to show itself. Finally, the theme became crystal clear as I read this post on making espresso. Was I "strong enough to stand up to the pressure, but resilient enough to let the water pass through evenly"? I knew I could resist no more. And still, I resisted.
You see, I loved my word for last year: FIRE! It was indeed a year of burning flames, hearts bursting open and projects ablaze. I'm still reveling in my acquaintance with St. Brigid of Kildare who I encountered while in Ireland. She is most often shown with flame in hand and is known for her hospitality and celebrating the ordinary. She is a woman on fire.
So, with all of these flames and fire, I was a bit chagrined to learn that my theme for this year is… WATER. Nothing like a burst of H2O to put a damper on a good flame, huh? Now, don't get me wrong, I am already embracing this new theme…slowly. However, it feels important to share my own resistance in letting go of the heat of 2009.
Appropriately, it has been a very wet day here as the calendar turns to 2010. It is a new decade and instead of a word, I have a full-blown theme. (I have also considered whether or not I may be working my way through the elements.) Regardless, WATER (with all of it's fluidity & flow) ought to keep me busy for awhile!
So, there it is. I have officially passed from the element of fire into the new year of WATER. Do you feel called to take on a similar practice of asking for a word? Abbey of the Arts gives a beautiful history of the origin and her own word of the year (along with a great giveaway.) Become Inspired with Kate Iredale as she shares her own word. I'm certain there are more around the internet and I look forward to nurturing each other as we embrace who we are to be in this coming year! So, what's your word?

In my opinion, not one of the Twins' starting five _ Carl Pavano, Francisco Liriano, Kevin Slowey, Scott Baker and Nick Blackburn _ would be good enough to crack the White Sox' starting five.
Wow! I'd take a 3.32 ERA with 116 K to 28 BB over a 4.65 ERA with 54 K to 27 BB. Not to mention FIP/xFIPs and WARs!

We'll make the cake together. You pour the oil (which does look like apple juice, but sure doesn't taste like it, does it?) and count the eggs before I crack them and turn the mixer on low then medium then wow! that's fast! You decide that it should be a dinosaur cake and you, of course, don't mean this to be a joke about age, you're just sure everyone loves dinosaurs. And why wouldn't they?
The cake: chocolate with green buttercream. The dinosaurs will love it.
My mama always used homemade buttercream frosting (butter, sugar, vanilla, splash of milk) and there is nothing like it. Buttercream is sweet and feels good in your mouth and gets a perfect, crystalline, feather-light crunch at room temperature. It is also very good piped onto a finger and licked clean, just like that. And a little will go a long way; try not to ruin your dinner.
Grandpa loves his cake, but I think more than anything he loves you. You help him blow out his candles and he is very appreciative. You blow out the candles in your underwear because there is so much fresh garden soil in Nan's yard, boxes and boxes of it, and you're only human, right?
It's good to be ninety, but I can tell there is nothing like being three.

Congratulations to Grandpa. Just imagine, he was three once too.
When I look at some one on the street, sometimes I imagine what they were like when they were two or three or four. I like to think that they were loved as much as I love my children. At least that's what I hope.
BTW - something I say to every one who takes care of my kids: "Dirt is proof of a good time."

What lovely pictures - and post.
We celebrated my grandfather's 91st birthday in April. I am sure he was far more interested in the fact that the kids had helped baked the cake than what it looked like or tasted like (good thing - it was no where near in your league!)
Glad you had a beautiful day!

On 15th of July I downloaded an app from the apple app store (Gemini 2 duplicate finder) to my iMac mid 2012 OS High Sierra). After installing the app functioned, but after I received a receipt from Apple on the 17th for purchase of the app the next opeing I received a message the app was corrupted that I should uninstall, download and reinstall the app. When opening "App Store" the normal icons at the top for "Featured Top Charts Categories Purchases & Updates" are missing. I was busy over the weekend and got back to the issue this afternoon. So far I have tired opening the app store; quitting, restart and open the app store. Next I quit the app store and restarted in "safe mode". Neither returned the incons to the app store when logged into it.
For illustrations I am attaching a screenshot of the iMac and a screen shot from my wife's MacBook Air to illustrate the icon I reference.

Meet Robyn Ereth. (She's the one on the left.) Last night sometime, she posted this image to her Facebook with the following note:
Donald is missing a shoe!!!thx Donald!!!!
Hordes of tipsters let us know Robyn's probably the woman who ripped a shoe out of a child's hands after the Packers' Donald Driver tossed a cleat to him after a charity softball game. It certainly looks like her, and she's wearing the same shirt.
(Driver's still looking for the kid who lost out on the shoe, by the way.)
Update (12:13 p.m.): ESPN's Playbook reports they've found the kid. Meanwhile, it appears Robyn's taken her Facebook page down.

I am standing at the top of the hill, I look down at my hands and they are shaking uncontrollably. I glance down at my legs and they are also...shaking. "Well, this is going to be interesting," I think to myself. Some people ask me if I get scared at the top of the ski jump and my instant response is always no, never. Well I guess this makes me a liar because yesterday at World Championships I was scared as hell.
World Championships were held in Val di Fiemme, Italy, in the heart of the Dolomite mountains. Last year at this same venue, I had won back to back World Cups and broke the hill record twice in one weekend. I knew this was my hill but I had my doubts about the championships since my competition consisted of the already declared World Cup overall winner (Sara Takanashi). She had won four World Cups in a row coming into this week and not by a little; I would consider them blowout wins. Nonetheless, I wasn't going to give up easy on a hill that had my name written on it.
As we progressed through the week of official trainings, on the technical side of things, I saw myself struggle. I could simply not find the rhythm of my favorite ski jump. On Thursday, our third and final day of training, it clicked. I found my balance, my speed and of course the rhythm. My confidence was back, but would it be enough?
Friday rolled around and I was honestly so excited to jump. I was determined to have fun regardless of what happened on the hill and you could say I had a little more than a good time.
Friday at 5:30 p.m. CET, I was declared 2013 world champion.
|Celebrating on the shoulders of my teammates Jessica Jerome
and Lindsey Van
I was leading after the first jump but only by a small margin so I knew my last jump had to be at the same level. I landed my second jump at 103 meters and truthfully, I didn't think it was enough. Regardless I threw a couple fist pumps in the air with a huge smile on my face. I came to a stop and turned around to look at the big screen. The points were being calculated and that will forever be the longest 30 seconds of my life.
The second I saw the "1" flash next to my name, I glanced over at the exit gates of the outrun only to see my teammates hurling themselves at me. As they reached me with outstretched arms, I instantly collapsed with happiness. I was finally able to gather myself to take off my skis and have them lift me up onto their shoulders. American flag in hand, we screamed and yelled in the outrun.
The next couple hours are slightly a blur. My dad, mom and brother were able to lean over the barriers to give me a hug and share their happiness. The flower ceremony soon followed, and the playing of the national anthem while I stood on the top of the podium will forever give me goose bumps in memory of that day.
I have yet to receive my actual gold medal as I type this. Although in exactly six hours, I will be listening to my family, friends, teammates, coaches and sponsors cheer me on as I step onto the top step of the podium. Because everyone knows, all those people helped me get to where I am today. A world champion.

Intellectual Ventures Keeps On Suing
from the trolly-trolly-trolly-troll deptFor years, Nathan Mhyrvold's Intellectual Ventures tried to avoid the "patent troll" label, in part by not filing any lawsuits. Boy, has that changed. A few months ago it filed its first three lawsuits, against a bunch of tech companies, and now it's gone right back to court to sue a bunch more, including Dell, HP, Asus, Acer, Best Buy and Wal-Mart. Of course, it's all a big shakedown scheme. To IV, you're either "with them" (which means holding your nose and paying upwards of $100 million for a blanket license) or "against them" (which means they'll sue you). It's not hard to see why many people seem to feel that this is all just a giant shakedown racket.

UNITED NATIONS (AP) — The U.S. ambassador to United Nations called on Russia to use its influence with the Syrian regime to help get humanitarian aid to the besieged city of Homs.
Samantha Power, in a speech during international Holocaust commemoration day, said that just as Russian soldiers liberated Auschwitz in 1945, "the world again needs Russia to use its influence, this time to ensure that food reaches the desperate and starving people imprisoned in besieged Homs, Yarmouk, the Damascus suburbs and elsewhere."
"The horrors of the Holocaust have no parallel but the world continues to confront crimes that shock the conscience," Power said during an event where film director Steven Spielberg gave a keynote address and a survivor of the Nazi genocide also spoke. "In October, the Security Council spoke with a united voice about the need for action to address the humanitarian devastation in Syria. There are people who are imprisoned in their own neighborhoods. They are literally being starved and bombed to death. They need food desperately and yet food cannot reach them because the regime won't allow it."
Russia's Mission to the U.N. criticized Power for bringing the Holocaust into the Syria issue.
"We regard such analogies as entirely inappropriate," said Alexey Zaytsev, the press-attaché at the mission, in an email to The Associated Press.
Such sharp exchanges have been typical of Security Council powers when it comes to Syria's civil war. Russia and China back President Bashar Assad and have blocked Western efforts to push through Security Council action that would pressure his government to end the violence.
During talks in Geneva, the Syrian regime and opposition reached a tentative agreement about the evacuation of women and children trapped in Homs before aid convoys go in. But no progress had been made on the ground by Monday night.
The U.N. envoy, Lakhdar Brahimi, cited security problems for part of the delay. Syria's opposition accused the regime of blocking a convoy of 12 trucks trying to get into Homs. Homs Governor Talai Barrazi said the only obstacle facing the flow of food into rebel held areas are "some cases of snipers fire by terrorist groups."
Britain's ambassador to the U.N., Mark Lyall Grant, told reporters that the Geneva talks present "an opportunity for the Syrian regime to show its willingness to humanitarian access" into Homs and other areas. He did not discount the possibility of U.N. Security Council action if the Syrian regime does not do so, although unity on the issue seems elusive.

Rai: Patents aren't sole incentive for exploring new uses for existing drug compounds
In a newly published article in the New England Journal of Medicine, Duke Law Professor Arti Rai examines a new shift in the "war" between patent-protected and generic pharmaceuticals.
An authority in patent law, innovation policy, and administrative law, Rai outlines the problem in her introduction to "Use Patents, Carve-Outs, and Incentives — A New Battle in the Drug-Patent Wars," published Aug. 9.
"The Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of 1984, commonly known as the Hatch–Waxman Act, aims to strike a balance between the innovation incentives provided by patents and the greater access provided by low-cost generic drugs. The legislation, which relies in part on an explicit link between the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) drug-approval process and the U.S. patent system, has been controversial, particularly because of the ways in which firms producing brand-name drugs have exploited that link to delay market entry of generics as long as possible. Now, the tactical landscape has shifted again, with a recently decided Supreme Court case, Caraco Pharmaceutical Laboratories v. Novo Nordisk."
"With the number of approved drugs that are new chemical compounds dropping in recent years, new uses for existing compounds are becoming an increasingly prominent source of innovation," said Rai. "The Caraco case increases patient access but arguably reduces patent-related incentives to rigorously test potential new uses. However, patents are not the only possible incentives. Public funding can (and already has) played a role."
Rai, Duke University's Elvin R. Latty Professor of Law, is a member of the Duke Institute for Genome Science and Policy. Her academic research on innovation policy in areas such as synthetic biology, green technology, drug development, and software has been funded by NIH, the Kauffman Foundation, and Chatham House. From 2009-2010 she served as the administrator of the Office of External Affairs at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, leading policy analysis of the legislation that ultimately became the America Invents Act and working to establish the PTO's Office of the Chief Economist. Prior to that time, she had served on President-Elect Obama's transition team reviewing the USPTO and as an expert advisor to the Department of Commerce's Office of General Counsel.
