Channel Conflict Resolution
Featured Brands
Consumer's today expect to be able to order direct form a manufacturer's website, putting manufacturers at odds with their retailers. Recognizing this, Ocean Rodeo chose to work with Quivers.com as it allows us to funnel orders received online to our retailers for fulfillment. Specifically though, we chose Quivers because of the innovation they've brought to this space, the ease of use of their system and their notification process for dealers which includes iPhone and iPad apps, SMS and email options to ensure orders are captured quickly and communications are sent in a timely manner to the consumer. I can comfortably say, I would recommend this system to any manufacturer or distributor looking to meet consumer demand for access while balancing retailer's expectations of support and geographic exclusivity.

For me it's not a health issue...whether or not cigarettes are killing you first-hand or me second-hand is not the point.

Smokers are the ones introducing a foul element to an otherwise natural environment. My opinion is that every human being should be afforded the opportunity to breath in a natural environment just the same as it was from the day they were born...impose on that by introducing a foreign, foul element and we have a problem. You blow smoke in my face and suddenly your health is in jeopardy, bud, and I ain't talkin' 'bout the stogie killin' ya. Long as you're not foulin' my air, I couldn't care less what you put in your body. Now, how is that imposing on your "rights" as an orally-fixated nicotine addict?

My AccountLibrary Catalog
The Cambridge Public Library at 449 Broadway has two small exhibition cases dedicated to showcasing original artifacts, books, manuscripts, and unique materials from the Cambridge Room, the Library's Archives and Special Collections.
Putnum Avenue Upper School Creative Journaling Project
In the 2012-13 school year 6th grade students at Putnum Avenue Upper School partnered with the Cambridge Creativity Commons to construct their own hand-bound journals inspired by Cambridge artist Dorothy Arnold's legacy of art journals. The students' journals are filled with pages that creatively express their knowledge through image and text across the disciplines of English Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Studies. Dorothy Arnold, known as "Doffie," turned to her passion of art full-time, around the age of 40 after raising her family. She received training at the Museum School in Boston and painted at her studio locally in East Cambridge for over 15 years. She began writting and drawing in journals in the early 1940s, documenting her life and travels. Her journals, spanning over 60 years, have been donated to the Cambridge Room, the Library's Archives and Special Collections. The Cambridge Creativity Commons aims to engage students and teachers in Cambridge in exploration of meaningful ideas to enrich learning through the arts. It is a collaboration of the Cambridge Community Foundation, Cambridge Arts Council, Cambridge Public Schools, Lesley University College of Art and Design and Creativity Commons, and the David Arnold Family.

Treasuries fell, pushing 10-year yields to the highest in more than two months, as an industry report showed job growth quickened more than forecast, adding to bets the Federal Reserve may advocate slowing bond purchases at this month's policy meeting.
Treasuries had their first monthly loss since August on speculation that November jobs gains may signal faster economic growth and convince the Federal Reserve to vote next month to scale back bond-buying.
Treasury 10-year note yields traded at almost a two-month high on speculation a U.S. jobs report next week will be strong enough to lead the Federal Reserve to vote to trim bond purchases as soon as December.
Treasury five-year note yields fell to almost the lowest level since June amid speculation demand at a $35 billion sale of the securities will be boosted on bets the Federal Reserve will maintain stimulus.
Treasuries rose for a second day, with 10-year yields dropping to the lowest level in three months, amid speculation the Federal Reserve will push back plans to trim its bond-purchase program.
Treasury 10-year notes fell for the fourth time in five days as the U.S. services sector grew faster than forecast last month, underpinning speculation the Federal Reserve may move up the timing of asset-purchase cuts.
Treasury 30-year bond yields climbed from the lowest level in more than a week as the U.S. auctioned $13 billion of the securities before the Federal Reserve discusses its debt purchases at a meeting next week.
Treasury 10-year notes tumbled the most in almost two years after stronger-than-forecast employment growth stoked speculation the Federal Reserve will begin to reduce the size of its asset purchases.
Rates on Treasury bills maturing in November and December jumped for a second day as officials in Washington worked on a short-term budget agreement that may push the possibility of a default back six weeks.
Treasuries fell, paring weekly gains, on speculation insurers in Japan may sell U.S. government debt to pay claims on damage caused by the nation's strongest earthquake on record.

Top Ten Apps For Windows Phone 7
For some odd reason when people ask why they should buy a smartphone the first thing I feel the need to tell them is that "you can buy apps". Sure, we've used cameras, video recording and web browsers on previous occasions, before all smartphones offered a shiny, large touch screen. But the best part about smartphones nowadays is that their makers have built up app stores that offer a wide variety of entertainment apps, productivity tools and games for mobile.
Apple's App Store has gathered up over 300,000 applications for iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch devices so far. Android isn't doing exceptionally bad either and they managed to pass the 100,000 apps mark. Microsoft's Windows Phone Market Place looks a bit pale by comparison. The Redmond-based giant has gathered 15,000 developers but so far has only about 3000 apps to offer its users. We'll have to admit that Windows Phone 7 has only been on the market for a very short while (it was released at the beginning of November in the US) and handsets running the operating system are just starting to sell in stores.
If when it comes to computer operating systems Microsoft is clearly in the lead with Windows, followed by Apple's Mac OS X, when talking about mobiles things are quite different. Google's Android operating system and Apple's iOS are the most interesting for consumers while Microsoft is just starting to make the transition between business users and consumers. Windows Mobile used to cater to the needs of corporate mobile phone users. As you may have noticed, things didn't go too well for the OS or Microsoft. Windows Phone 7 now aims to bring something different for regular users. It's meant to be simple, to the point and offer anything people might need in the main user interface. While the Windows Phone 7 store keeps gathering apps, there are already some nice things you can download assuming you already went ahead and purchased a WP7 handset. We've made a list of apps that are nice to have right now. Some are free to download whereas some others you'll have to pay for. We'll as usual start with number 10.
Let's face it, most of us check what the weather will be like from time to time and a weather app is quite important on a mobile phone. Some operating systems offer this kind of functionality from the start. Windows Phone 7 does not so you'll just have to download an app to get to see whether it will rain, snow or be sunny where you're currently living. The Weather Channel for Windows Phone 7 is an ad-supported app that's available for free download.
According to TWC, this app will offer the most reliable, accurate weather forecasts available on mobile. You'll get a ton of features as well such as interactive weather maps, a panoramic view screen, a snapshot of weather conditions for the locations you save and metro traffic cameras.
Upon the launch of this app, Cameron Clayton, the senior VP of mobile from the Weather Channel mentioned that the company's goal was to provide WP7 users with the most accurate weather forecasts available on the go and the best way to do it was to offer an ad-supported model which basically allows for more features to be included even if the app is available for download for free. Clayton believes this app is a must-have for all WP7 users. I'll have to agree because it's the best weather app you can find for Microsoft's mobile operating system up to this date.
The features don't end with what I've mentioned above. Users will also get traffic cameras for local roads and highways (in supported markets), they'll be able to share information through e-mail and let friends know what the weather will be like, a video center with local and regional forecasts and a severe weather center with updates on tropical systems, winter weather and more.
A large, large number of people love this micro-blogging website which will allow them to keep in touch with what's new in the world, what their friends are doing and more. Twitter is actually available for nearly all mobile platforms that were released so far. That's because people love to tweet on the go and check out what their friends have tweeted. Since a tweet is only 140 long, it's definitely not hard for you to even tweet something while you're walking.
The app for Windows Phone 7 was released on October 28 this year. It will work on all WP7 devices and let users get tweets quickly and easily. Just like the apps for other platforms, Twitter for Windows Phone will offer all the features you'd get from the main website including : timeline, suggested users, messages, lists and a nice way to explore Twitter even if you don't log in. If you don't have an account, you can even sign up for one straight from the app. The platform's design and UI, called Metro, is great for Twitter users because it's quite simple. It also delivers Pivots, which can be called pages I guess. If you swipe left or right you can view different information within the same app. In Twitter for WP7 if you swipe left or right you can move from your timeline to mentions or direct messages.
This app will convert your phone into a virtual remote for Windows Media Center, Windows Media Player, iTunes, Media Player Classic and/or VLC Player. It will work over your Wifi network and let you control typical media functions like play, pause, stop, next, previous, rewind, forward, the volume and mute. So let's say you're on your couch, aren't really willing to get up from there for whatever reason but would like to listen to some music. You can then launch Windows Media Center from where you are and put any media player in full screen. You can turn the volume up or down and you can select another song.
By using the D-pad arrows and the OK button you can browse your media files in any of the supporting media players. This is just one of those apps that are simple, to the point and get the job done. You won't be confused on how to use it and your comfort will definitely be improved. To make this app work you'll also have to download the virtual remote desktop software which can be downloaded from here.
This is clearly one of the most entertaining simple games for every type of mobile phone on the planet which can support it. While most people won't need any instruction to play this game, the main idea is that you swap pairs of gems and your aim is to line up three or more gems of the same color. When three gems of the same color are aligned they will disappear and a new set of gems will take their place. Bigger sets of matching gems will disappear and result in the appearance of special gems with "super-powers". Some will clear all gems around them while others will release lighting strikes to the side, up and down when matched.
There are several game modes in the game. You'll get the standard Classic mode, an Endless mode which will let you match jewels for as long as you can handle it and an Action mode where you'll get to achieve combos and fill a dropping meter. When the meter is on zero, the game is over. No matter what you do, you might want to consider downloading this game because it's somewhat addictive and exceptionally fun, perhaps more fun than other games that offer impressive graphics.
The Netflix app was offered on the Windows Marketplace as a free download since the beginning of November. I guess Netflix will really be available on every single platform on this planet but we really don't mind. While you'll need a Netflix membership to get anything out of this application, if you have a membership already you'll be able to instantly watch TV shows and movies on your WP7 handsets.
It's actually recommended that you download this app because it's free and you definitely have nothing to lose. You'll get the satisfaction of poking fun at people with Android-running smartphones who don't yet have a Netflix app available to them through the Android Market.

Enduring Tribulations
By Editorial Staff
Published April 21, 2008
A Chinese student finds meaning in suffering
by Rachel Chang*
God does care for the Chinese!
I am from mainland China and have lived in the United States for nearly four years. It is a great honor for me to share with you here what God has done in my life.
My story beings at the turn of this century, when a Korean Christian came to China as a missionary to our country. In the 30 years that followed, he learned the Chinese language and married a Chinese woman.
Then in 1949, he returned to Korea, forced to leave behind his wife and children, who began what would be many years of great suffering under Chinese communism. Yet, they remained strong Christians.
I write today as the third generation of this family. My father grew up attending a Christian school, where he was saved when he was 16. Later, as a college student in Beijing, he attended church. As my father grew older and worked as a physical doctor, he kept in close contact with the pastor of this church and supported his ministry.
I remember well how, as a young child, I saw the suffering and persecutions to which my parents and other Christians were subjected, particularly during the "Cultural Revolution." I saw how my parents were beaten, whipped, and insulted, and how my father's rib was broken. I heard my parents' earnest prayers in the darkness after midnight.
More incredibly, I saw my father smile through the torture from the persons who were striking and denouncing him. Even today, I remember well what my father told me in this time of great tribulation. "I am ready," he told me. "I would rather be burned than betray my Lord."
I also remember three other Christians in our town, who came to me secretly and said, "My child, don't be afraid! What is happening now is written in the Bible," citing Matthew 24:7-14 (KJV):
"For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name's sake. And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another. Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many. And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold. But he who endures to the end shall be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come."
As a child, I could not understand all of these sufferings, but my parents' great faith and their extraordinary endurance in their personal tribulation influenced me a great deal. While I did not, then, fully know the God of my parents, I remember thinking that He must be good and powerful. And so I prayed to Him for help, even though I was just a child. This step of faith began the process of my conversion.
However, I owe the final step of my conversion to my Christian friends, whom I met when attending a training class in a nearby city. With their help, I understood many essential Christian doctrines, particularly that I was as much a sinner as others were. So I confessed my sin and accepted Jesus as my savior and Lord.
I changed a lot following my conversion …
Before giving my life to Jesus, I complained a lot about my family's sufferings. I asked my parents why they did not leave China before 1949; why they stayed and suffered; and what the meaning of this endless suffering was. After my conversion, I complained no more. I saw clearly God's good plan for my family: my parents were placed in that area to be His witnesses, through which thousands of the locals turned to Christ.
Today, my father is 70 years old and he is still busy serving in the house churches as a doctor and a volunteer pastor. During the morning, he receives patients, and in the afternoon and evenings – three or four times each week – he preaches the Gospel. I thank God for him, and for my husband, a former Communist Party member and a student in the early 1980s who suffered political persecution – whom He also saved. While my husband had been seeking after truth for more than 10 years, he finally found it when he converted to Christ following the June 4, 1989, confrontation in Beijing's Tiananmen Square.
As we shared the Gospel with our friends at home, many said, "I know you have faith, for when you talk about your God, your face is shining. But you don't have knowledge; you can't convince me."
Not long ago, feeling the urgency to receive training in evangelism and apologetics, we came to study at graduate school in a seminary in the U.S. To accomplish this, God amazed us by leading us out of China in much the same way He led Moses out of Egypt. The miracles and grace He shined upon us during our two-year exodus are too abundant to recount in this space, but I will always remember them in my heart.
In 1991, we finally arrived at school. Since arriving, God has given me a great dream of establishing, upon my return to China, a church and Bible institute like this, which is why I enrolled in the education doctorate program after graduating. My husband also has a great burden – in his case for intellectuals in Chinese colleges. As I struggle with my classes and dream about the future of such a Chinese Bible institute, my husband has begun to write biblical literature for these Chinese intellectuals. We know that God has called and prepared us to return to China to serve Him there. And we know that God will send us back in the same way He led us here.
When I visited China last summer, I found many friends still suffering and struggling for warmth and food, and searching for the meaning of life.
"We Chinese are not human beings," one youth told me in great despair. "We are just like ants. Who cares if we die? Maybe there is a God, but He does not seem to care for the Chinese people."
The fact is, God does care for the Chinese! There is a great need in China. God is meeting that need of the Chinese people.

Go Stand Speak (DVD)
With "preaching to the lost" being such a basic foundation of Christianity, why do many in the church seem to be apathetic on this issue of preaching in highways and byways of towns and cities?
Is it biblical to stand in the public places of the world and proclaim the gospel, regardless if people want to hear it or not?
Does the Bible really call church pastors, leaders and evangelists to proclaim the gospel in the public square as part of obedience to the Great Commission, or is public preaching something that is outdated and not applicable for our day and age?
These any many other questions are answered in this documentary.

Massacre of Innocence (DVD)
Exposing The Occult Roots of Abortion
This presentation looks at the spiritual roots of abortion and exposes the myths surrounding child killing. Little known historical facts about abortion and how they relate to modern feminism are presented logically and accurately. Has been effective in converting many to a pro-life position.
Massacre of Innocence goes where no pro-life presentation has gone before in "tearing the lid off abortion" to reveal the spiritual realities we must battle if we will bring an end to this crime. The presentation is absorbing, fast-paced, informative and incredibly devastating to any attempt to justify abortion.
"… an extraordinary statement … a powerfully articulate presentation about what abortion really means, and why a great and moral nation like the United States must not allow the slaughter to continue."
— Congressman Robert K. Dornan

Freedom: The Model of Christian Liberty (DVD)
"Give me liberty or give me death!"
Patrick Henry's famous declaration not only helped launch the War for Independence, it also perfectly summarized the mindset that gave birth to, and sustained, the unprecedented experiment in Christian liberty that was America.
The freedom our Founders envisioned was not freedom from suffering, want, or hard work. Nor was it freedom to indulge every appetite or whim without restraint—that would merely be servitude to a different master. No, the Founders' passion was to live free before God, unfettered by the chains of autocracy, shackles that slowly but inexorably bind men when the governments they fashion fail to recognize and uphold freedom's singular, foundational truth: that all men are created in the image of God, and are thereby co-equally endowed with the right to "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."
This presentation is a similar call, not to one but many. By reintroducing the principles of freedom that gave birth to America, it is our prayer that Jesus, the true and only ruler over the nations, will once again be our acknowledged Sovereign, that we may again know and exult in the great truth that "where the Spirit of the LORD is, there is liberty" (2 Cor. 3:17).
Welcome to the Second American Revolution!
This DVD features "Liberty: The Model of Christian Liberty" along with "Dawn's Early Light: A Brief History of America's Christian Foundations." Bonus features include a humorous but instructive collection of campaign ads and Eric Holmberg's controversial YouTube challenge concerning Mitt Romney's campaign for president.

Busted Convertible Security
Definition of 'Busted Convertible Security'
A convertible security that is trading well below its conversion value. The result is that the security is valued as regular debt because there is very little chance that it will ever reach the convertible price before maturity.
Investopedia explains 'Busted Convertible Security'
This is a convertible that is now a non-convertible because the convertible price is 50% or more above the current share price. Some investors have found success in trading busted convertibles. While the possibility of converting into stock is usually remote, busted converts usually trade at prices and yields very close to other nonconvertible debt (so you don't compromise returns). Meanwhile, if by chance the stock rebounds, the bond could become extremely valuable.

Why? Because Apple treated me like a king and made me feel "cool". Like I was part of their "insider's club".

Sundays With Seth: Koala-ty Time With a Bully
by Jason Hughes, posted Apr 26th 2010 9:11AM
Once again, 'American Dad' flew solo this week, representing the vast Seth MacFarlane Sunday night empire on FOX. 'Sons of Tucson' will be back to finish its run throughout the summer. The geniuses at FOX then decided that next week, 'Family Guy' and 'The Cleveland Show' will be all new, while 'Dad's' a rerun. This is the kind of brilliant planning that had 'Sons' premiering after a night of almost all repeats.

Effective but not for daily use, for me.
3 people found the following review helpful
Posted by seancollins From Tennessee on Apr 30, 2012
Purchased at iHerb
I used these for a few weeks as a l-tyrosine supplement. I noticed moments of feeling spaced out after the few weeks that weren't typical for me. I noticed that there is ginkgo in this and that might be the result. I have never enjoyed too much ginkgo in my diet, it gives me an emotionally distant feeling, I call it ice brain. Anyways, I switched back to Jarrow Formulas N-Acetyl Tyrosine and I feel great! I have noticed that herbs like ginkgo and ginseng start to make me feel weird if I have a daily dose for longer than a few weeks straight. I now just occasionally will take True Focus, maybe once a week instead of the basic Tyrosine and it works great like that! I wouldn't recommend these for daily use, (I wish they left the ginkgo out) but highly recommend them if you are going into a stressful time where you need focus. Hope this helped.

I was taking L-Tyrosine alone before going with the Now True Focus blend (recommended by the "Mood Cure" book). I took it daily and finished the entire bottle, but I must say that I felt better by using the L-Tyrosine alone. I really could not feel any difference using these. A friend of mine, on the other hand, has had great results with True Focus. So, I guess, you need to listen to your body.

The Deans are in straight chill mode. Alicia, Swizz, and Egypt were recently photographed shortly after landing in Brazil, looking relaxed and ready to enjoy the scenery. Egypt placed his arms behind his head and leaned backed while positioned in between mom and dad who were also chilling out.
Alicia sat down with Origin magazine at the top of this month to talk about the things that inspire her as an artist. "Many things inspire me," said Keys. "First and foremost, my family, my husband and our son, Egypt. I find that the love we share fills me up and makes me see and appreciate life in a different way."
The singer added, "When I'm on stage, my interaction with the audience is something that really makes me come alive. It's a feeling like no other. The energy of the crowd fuels something new inside. It reminds me to live in the moment. Moments are so fleeting; I want to hold on to the good ones. When I am truly present, I feel alive, and I want everyone around me to share that feeling so we can make the most of that moment together."
Egypt is Swizz and Alicia's first child together. The tot and his parents touched down in Brazil on Tuesday (September 10).

Managers miss on platoon advantage
There's a reason dominant setup men often struggle as closers; managers, take note
Bobby Jenks was the closer for the White Sox since late in their 2005 World Series championship season through 2009 -- and on and off last season -- though it wasn't an entirely smooth ride. Once able to hit 100 mph on the radar gun regularly, Jenks' average fastball velocity dipped into the low 90s in 2007 and 2008 before rebounding back to 95 mph in 2010. He also clashed with skipper Ozzie Guillen on multiple occasions, though Jenks always managed to keep his closer role.
Matt Thornton was even more dominant than Jenks the past few seasons. An under-the-radar pickup from Seattle before the 2006 season, Thornton worked with pitching coach Don Cooper and improved his control substantially after his initial time in Chicago. When general manager Kenny Williams declined to re-sign Jenks last offseason, the GM felt confident that lefty Thornton was ready to assume the closer role after striking out 81 batters in just 60 2/3 innings as the setup man last year.
However, the transition did not go as well as anticipated. Thornton blew his first four save opportunities in 2011, and Guillen was forced to pull the lefty from his new role by the end of April. While the White Sox's poor defense was partly to blame, Thornton's underlying rates weren't encouraging, either. He was walking more batters and striking out fewer, a dangerous sign for a pitcher.
Did Thornton simply not have the mental strength to handle the intensity of the closer's role?

Hi, I bought a 200gb HDD from a forum member. in HDTUNE it shows Ultra DMA CRC Error Count-current-200 worst-1 status- warning. yellow bar in spin retry count with status 'OK' all other ID's with OK status Health status - Warning checked the error scan - didn't find anything in error scan . still running with loud noise . can you tell me the condition of my HDD ?
Spin Retry Count being yellow is normal. Every Seagate drive I've owned has been like that from the factory, HDTune just doesn't know how to handle that attribute. The Ultra DMA CRC Error Count is normally 200 also, and it could have been tripped by something as simple as a bad cable. If the drive is acting normal and passing error tests it is fine.
I have had the CRC error count thing happen to my system not too long ago. In my case what happened was actually the DVD drive SATA cable going bad or having a poor connection, causing interference with the main HDD. When this happened I was getting long long load times, and bluescreens. By the time I had figured out what the issue was, the HDDs smart logged 111 CRC error data. Still runs good as gold. All the Ultra DMA CRC Error count tells me is at one time during the usage of the HDD, there was a problem causing the HDD not to function correctly, not the HDD itself. In more uncommon cases, the CRC error count, would be caused by a failing logic board on the HDD. But by then it would be obvious there is a problem without looking at HDTune.
I have exactly the same on my WD 640GB, Widjaja explains it beautifully above. The drive works fine and as intended, at some point in the past however I must have had a gimped or unplugged cable whilst powered on and this will now be reported forever with no ill effects evident.
Just to add, checked out a friends laptop and took a look at their seagate HDD. Same thing with certain things highlighted for what appears no reason. No issue with his HDD, just remnants of a rootkit making his laptop overheat. You SATA cable will most loikely be absolutley fine. It was whatever happened in the original sellers computer which caused a blooper to make the HDD record the CRC error count. Most likely linked to a device attached by a SATA cable.

Willie Nelson
Willie Nelson
As a songwriter and a performer, Willie Nelson played a vital role in post-rock & roll country music. Although he didn't become a star until the mid-'70s, Nelson spent the '60s writing songs that became hits for stars like Ray Price ("Night Life"), Patsy Cline ("Crazy"), Faron Young ("Hello Walls"), and Billy Walker ("Funny How Time Slips Away") as well as releasing a series of records on Liberty and RCA that earned him a small, but devoted, cult following. During the early '70s, Willie aligned himself with Waylon Jennings and the burgeoning outlaw country movement that made him into a star in 1975. Following the crossover success of that year's Red Headed Stranger and "Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain," Nelson was a genuine star, as recognizable in pop circles as he was to the country audience; in addition to recording, he also launched an acting career in the early '80s. Even when he was a star, Willie never played it safe musically. Instead, he borrowed from a wide variety of styles, including traditional pop, Western swing, jazz, traditional country, cowboy songs, honky tonk, rock & roll, folk, and the blues, creating a distinctive, elastic hybrid. Nelson remained at the top of the country charts until the mid-'80s, when his lifestyle -- which had always been close to the outlaw clich�s with which his music flirted -- began to spiral out of control, culminating in an infamous battle with the IRS in the late '80s. During the '90s and into the 2000s, Nelson's sales never reached the heights that he had experienced earlier, but he remained a vital icon in country music, having greatly influenced the new country, new traditionalist, and alternative country movements of the '80s and '90s as well as leaving behind a legacy of classic songs and recordings.

Well, I have to give a little time to my son today! After all, it's his turn to shine!
My son, Joseph David Spangler, will be graduating this Friday from North Lamar High School in Paris, Texas. I couldn't be prouder! He's the oldest of my three children and it's a sad feeling knowing that he will soon be moving forward on the next stage of his life's journey. I just pray that his mother and I have given him enough teaching and wisdom to make good decisions.
Of course, it's a thrill to see him make it to this stage of his life. Not many folks make it to this point. He has so much to be proud of and he has such a bright future ahead of him.
Prepare yourselves, I'm sure that you will be hearing more about my son in the future!

Coffee Food Truck Brews Up Business
By Cindy Atoji Keene
Andrew Russo was 22-year-old coffee virgin when he drank his first cup five years ago in a military mess hall. "It tasted like muddy water," said Russo, then an army officer. "I was amazed at how bad it was." But this initial encounter launched him on a quest to find the perfect cup of coffee and eventually to become the owner and operator of a food truck. His mobile café on wheels peddles coffee, espresso, cappuccino, lattes and cold brewed beverages in the Metrowest and Boston area.
Before launching Captain's Coffee Brewers last year, Russo visited cities like Los Angeles and Portland, Ore., sampling everything from pancakes to sushi, served from food trucks. "You name it, it can be done from a truck," said Russo, who liked the freedom of operating from a food truck and wanted to cash in on the food-truck craze, in which the humble blue-collar lunch option has evolved into a foodie eating experience.
Russo invested in a solar power truck, complete with two grinders, manual press, commercial drip coffee maker, two blenders for smoothies and cappuccinos, and a refrigerator for dairy products and storage, plus numerous other equipment. His food truck debut was before the start of the Boston Marathon, where he served coffee to countless runners, including an Australian who had never seen a food truck before, and said, "What is this? Can you actually get a decent cup coffee from a truck?"
Q: Espresso is brewed right from the equipment in your truck – is that difficult to do?
A: It takes a while to get everything up and running since coffee equipment was never designed by any engineer to be in a truck. In our opening day, for example, there wasn't enough solar power and the generator wasn't working that great. But you learn to do different unique things to get to operating efficiency.
Q: Are cities and towns friendly to food trucks?
A: Permits or paperwork are different for every town I go to. There are no standards. I have nine different Board of Health permits, for example. Some towns also require a common victualler license. It's very frustrating but that's the nature of the business.
Q: You like to experiment with coffee to find the best blend, adding everything from chocolate chips to oatmeal. But what was one experiment that flopped?
A: I decided to try and blend all the beans available at our roasting facility, about 20 different coffees, just to see what would happen. It was the worst thing I ever had in terms of an experimental drink, but it was worth a shot.
Q: How many cups of coffee do you drink a day now?
A: At least nine cups, and two of those are with extra expresso shots. That's down from 11 a day. I drink so much mainly because if I experiment, I have to taste it all. I don't like wasting a drop so I finish the cup, even if it didn't turn out perfectly.
Q: Every get any parking tickets?
A: No, I try to obey the law.

ISO Updates Information Security Management Standard
Gartner Says Risk-Based Approach will Solve the Compliance vs Security Issue
Later this month in Sydney and in London in September, Gartner will hold summits on compliance and security. Compliance, it suggests, should be subsumed into risk management, rather than security being subsumed into compliance.
Enterprises Eye Integrated Risk Management to Replace Aging GRC Platforms
Despite ongoing reliance on traditional Governance Risk and Compliance (GRC) platforms, a majority of enterprise IT departments see them as inflexible, slow and incapable of automating governance and security risk management processes.
ISO approves eDiscovery standards development
The International Organisation for Standardisation has given its final approval for the development of an international standard for the discovery of electronically stored information (ESI), aimed at giving greater credibility to digital evidence in legal matters and forensics through the implementation of a secure framework and guidelines for the process.
Infosecurity Europe 2013: Risk management means engaging the board
Information security risk should be more than a technical discussion, finds panel.
CISO roles expanding to encompass risk management approach for enterprise security
The role of chief information security officers (CISOs) is expanding, shifting from a focus on information security programs to a holistic risk management approach that encompasses not just IT administration, but also strategic thinking that understands and influences business risk decisions affecting everything from developing privacy policies to preparing disaster recovery plans.
ISO Updates Information Security Management Standard
21 August 2013
ISO/IEC 27001, the information security management system standard, is being revised to strengthen risk management practices and encourage them to be integrated into the operational whole for organizations.
"We have brought the new edition up to date, taking into account the experiences of users who have implemented, or sought certification to, ISO/IEC 27001:2005," wrote Edward Humphreys, convener of the working group responsible for the development and maintenance of ISO/IEC 27001, in a post on the ISO website. "The idea is to provide a more flexible, streamlined approach, which should lead to a more effective risk management."
As far as the specific major benefits of the new edition, the ISO is eyeing the modern threat landscape and has made a number of improvements to the security controls listed in Annex A to better address identity theft, risks related to mobile devices and other online vulnerabilities.
The new ISO/IEC 27001 has also been modified to fit the new high-level structure used in all management system standards, making its integration with other management systems an easier option. Aligning ISO/IEC 27001 to the new structure should help organizations if they want to implement more than one management system at a time. For example, an organization might want to integrate their information security system (ISO/IEC 27001) with other management systems such as the business continuity management (ISO/IEC 22301), IT service management (ISO/IEC 20000-1) or quality management (ISO 9001).
The similarity in structure between the standards will save organizations money and time, so businesses can adopt integrated policies and procedures.
As far as timing, the revision of the 2005 edition is now at the Final Draft International Standard (FDIS) stage. This will be completed in early September, after which any typographical edits will be made ready for an expected launch in October. At this point the new edition of ISO/IEC 27001 will be available for purchase and the 2005 version withdrawn.
For organizations certified to ISO 27001:2005, they will need to upgrade their information security management system to comply with the requirements of the new edition.
"The transition period for upgrading has not yet been decided but it is likely to be two years from when the new edition is published," Humphreys noted. "Upgrading to the new edition of ISO/IEC 27001 should not prove particularly problematic. The transition period helps as it means the effort required can be part of a staged work program and integrated into continual improvement activities and planned surveillance audits."

Women on Boards
Wednesday, June 6th, 8:30 to 10:30 AM FREE
Boards of directors need women…and women need to be on boards. Whether they choose to do so as a strategic business decision or as a commitment to a cause they support, women have much to give and to gain from board participation, yet many women are unclear as to what qualifications are required, what board membership entails, how boards operate and how to become involved. This panel discussion, featuring high-powered North Shore women with years of experience on a variety of for-profit and non-profit boards, provides a rare opportunity to get the low-down on an important high-level activity.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
"We wanted something simple, to the point and fun. This fits it all. Lots of compliments, never get tired of looking at the design. The only thing that could be better is if they let you choose bride and groom features. But overall fantastic!"
"I was searching for a nautical theme for our save the dates, as my fiancé and I are being married at our family lake house. The anchor theme was too cute to pass up. The design team worked with me so I could add our wedding website on the back of the postcard, so it would be neatly printed on the top. Additionally, the paper quality, image resolution and overall look of the card are wonderful. I have used Wedding Paper Divas for my thank you cards, my return addresses, and a sticker for our welcome bags. I cannot imagine working with another company-- they have helped solve so many of our wedding needs. Than you!"
"I love this design, options, colors, etc. The quality of the paper is amazing. The ease of formatting and review of product before it was printed was such an easy process. I am amazed at the quality of an online product. I had thought about going to the invitation store in town, but I saved a lot of money and time by using Wedding Paper Divas. Can't wait to send them out!"
"I received my Save the Dates yesterday, and they were all absolutely perfect. They arrived on time and in a beautifully presented stationary box, carefully packaged and each one of them was completely faultless, not a single speck or smudge. The designers worked with me and got every detail just how I wanted it, and as a result I now have a simple and sophisticated card to send out to my guests. They perfectly set the tone for an elegant wedding. I strongly recommend this design for brides that want a uniquely simple and classy design and aren't wanting to be tied to set themes, colours and motifs."
"We are very happy with this save the date magnet. The magnet itself is great quality and very fun. We received several compliments. The design team at Wedding Paper Divas is fantastic as they were able to customize the design to have a blonde bride. Also, when we contacted the company about being a few envelopes short, they were quick to send replacements."

What is it with the female
persuasion that
clings to the
notion that
is a delicious dish?
You smile, you laugh
as you believe the stories,
the promises, and the kismet
collected in your
nightstand drawer
that you sift through every once
in awhile to tell yourself
that surely it existed,
because a fool is
something you've
never been.
Was your pride
greater than his,
to think you
met up to
invisible measuring
stick he never
cared to share?
Tell me.
What's so great about this
bad boy you came to love?
What's so great about this
fool who dared to hurt someone
such as you.
Tell me he was true.
Tell me he was everything
and I'll shut the fuck up.

Reblogged from Fight for Rhinos:
Fantastic message!
Every little bit helps-please donate.
I gave the following advice below to a fellow blogger's dilemma in their life that they are currently struggling with. For what it's worth. I hope she takes my words to heart for the coming year and finds strength to do what she needs to do….
I have come to believe the world owes us nothing. And that it is up to us to make our own way in it. There are no guarantees of happiness but only the potential for JOY in your spirit. JOY is something separate from happiness. YOU are in control of your Joy in your heart. Happiness is external. Be the person you wish to be that brings out that JOY . When you do that, then the happiness and contentment will follow. Much love.
(I have to give proper credit because in my mind I was paraphrasing a one – Tyler Joseph of the band Twenty On Pilots who made a similar quote somewhere else in the web sphere a while back)
Yes , its vague advice . But I don't know her whole story or her real internal struggles she lives with on a day to day basis. I will not presume to question most beliefs but I am just stating my own. Their are many mysteries in the world that people can KNOW they have the answers to but I don't. But their ARE mysteries needing answers so I will never presume the answers won't come sooner or later to all of them.
I have peace of mind NOT knowing the answers to the meaning of life.
I am happy with supposition and the what-ifs of it all. To me that's FUN.
Others do the same in the world, whether finding it from an ancient book, their imperial logic, or through thoughtful meditation.
I think we all do this because the TRUE answer to the question might not be the answer we were looking for or even expected.
I personally think we are asking the wrong question: What is the meaning of life? With the sometime addendum "and my place in it? seems to be the normal refrain by most humans.
Why instead don't we ask ourselves.. What can I do in this life that I have been given to make someone else's life better?
(The word, Someone, in my mind is defined as all species, not just us humans.)
Life as I said to my fellow blogger IN MY BELIEF is not exclusive to the individual. It's everywhere. YES, it's personal, but YOU are NOT separate and apart. YOU are part of it.
So dig in and get your hands dirty and your feet wet. Because life might be missing your part in it.
I don't know much, but I know this…
I failed at the NaNoWriMo challenge….my 50,000 WORDS didn't Happen….I was about 2 weeks in and had 17,000 words done….about 1,500 Word average a day for me. I was doing fairly well. Making good head way to really amp it up and get myself to the 50,000 by the end of November.
WHEN BLAM….my body said to me…"Hey, your doing TOO well…time to get sick, so FUCK you!"
Yep. I am just now getting over it. I had NOT Much energy except to maybe pull myself to work and try not to fall asleep at my desk.
My voice for few a days sounded like Kermit the Frog after chain smoking for 30yrs. (no kidding)
It sucked….I HATE HATE HATE having no energy for anything ….. like reading, writing, sex ,movie going, work, sex again…etc….
C'mon gods of Fates and Dillusionment! Give me a break!
So this December will be my own private NaNoWriMo……Fuck you fates you don't own me.
The sun has set on the old day I am going to get this Novel done its a new day coming. 'Nuff said.
"What change's some of us over time to see only the bad things in life when the good things are there in equal measure just waiting to be noticed again?"
I like big books and I can not lie
You other scholars can't deny
That when a librarian walks in with an itty bitty waist
and slaps a big paged volume down in your face
You get sprung, wanna pull out your specs
'Cause you notice that book looks stuffed
Deep in the pages the words be blaring.
I'm hooked and I can't stop staring
Oh baby, I wanna get with you
in my lap to read the big picture
My schoolboys tried to warn me
But that big book makes me so ornery
When I rub its Rump-o'-smooth-skin
spine and I'm not allowed to read it.
Well, use me, use me
'Cause you ain't that average mystery
On the shelves, I've seen those other books dancin'
To hell with romances
I 'm tired of magazines
Conveying to me flat books are the thing,
Take the average smart man and ask him that
The book gotta pack much back
So, fellas! (Yeah!) Fellas! (Yeah!)
Has your girlfriend got your big book? (Hell yeah!)
Tell 'em to shake it! (Shake it!) Shake it! (Shake it!)
Shake that healthy book!
And baby, baby, give me my big book back!
