Revolutionary mobile application delivers insights that are timely, detailed, and guided
WALTHAM, Mass., Sept. 24, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Profitect announces the initial release of its Mobile Field Application, enabling retailers to be more efficient and effective in the performance of their field duties.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110712/NE33204LOGO )
With the use of the Mobile Field Application, retailers have access to accurately identify true positives, root causes, and solutions to margin leakage opportunities. By providing timely, detailed, and guided actions to field employees, Profitect helps retailers leverage corporate knowledge, accountability, and big data to quickly realize financial benefits.
Powering up the Profitect investment another notch, the application is the field conduit of the Profit Amplification Suite - in an easy-to-use, on the go application. Benefits include:
"While other applications are trying to refit their desktop application to a mobile device, Profitect has completely revolutionized how associates will work in the stores," said a current Profitect customer. "When any field associate can go into a store, create a meaningful visit, and create a record of what they did, going after what that store really needs, it will change the way we do business."
"Our customers will gain a whole new level of productivity with the Mobile Field Application," said Guy Yehiav, CEO, Profitect. "Putting Profitect in their hands, out of the office, gives retailers the ability to quickly resolve identified sales and margin leakage opportunities, without having to stop and return to their computer for additional guidance, enabling them to spend more time with customers on the sales floor."
About Profitect Profitect's Profit Amplification software, a pattern-seeking solution, enables retailers to quickly realize increased revenue and reduced costs across the entire retail supply chain. Profit Amplification pattern-seeking algorithms can "tell a story" by identifying the root cause of anomalies such as inventory distortion, on-shelf availability, shrink/waste/damage, or process non-compliance – helping retailers minimize the effort necessary to identify controllable factors which the solution translates into action. As a result, retailers can move quickly to prevent profit leakage at all levels of the organization, ultimately improving business processes and the top and bottom line.

People above summed it pretty good. I have a couple bunkered and will drink in the future.

I always thought the WTR was a solid rye to have around and at a managable price point.I would always have a Saz,Ritt,LDI of some sort and a WT open as a variance of styles and flavors,all good enough to drink neat or to make a cocktail if inclined to do so.The rye was always around $22-$24 dollars when available,but like so many before it they have disappeared from store shelves to be replaced by an inferior product.I hope to see its return but I guess only time shall tell.
"To deny our own impulses is to deny the very thing that makes us human."
Larry Wachowski
Looks like I may be the oddball here. My first (and only) bottle was one of the few I've given away after trying a number of times and just not liking.
Lead me not into temptation - I can find the way myself
When it was announced it was going away, I bunkered quite a few. $17 and change here in Ohio. I like it, a decent value pour rye. Not a complex whiskey, but certainly easy drinking.
And the TTB COLA website shows approval for a new 101 label.

There can't be good living where there is not good drinking....Ben Franklin
I have only about 1/3 bottle left and have been nursing it along (i.e., not drinking it) because of its "historic" value. (Yes, I know that's dumb.) I like it better than the current WT101 bourbon but not as much as Baby Saz, RRR, or Bulleit 95 Rye.
I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.
We were told on the WT tour last week that they hope to bring it back in about 2 years or so.
About as long as the preliminary market research stage which follows.
I guess "give 'em the bird" isn't just a marketing slogan, it's a brand management strategy, too.
I have two bunkered, and left the last couple I saw on the shelf. Around here it seems we always got hosed on the price; at just under $30. It tastes drier than the LDI juice, and younger than Rittenhouse.

Dining Reviews
A Towson Throwback
Bread and Circuses lives up to its name.
Shaking up Salt
What happens to a successful restaurant when the chef steps down?
On Top of Tapas
Ranazul in Howard County serves a spread of intriguing small plates.
An Original Brewpub
Since the mid-'90s, The Brewer's Art has combined its Belgian-style beers with inventive fare.
The New Chesapeake

What's Up, Dog?
The all-American frank gets gourmet treatment all over town.
The days of eating a puny hot dog with just a squirt of mustard seem to have disappeared, replaced by fat, fancy frankfurters with all manner of condiments and garnishes. Chili Man Weiners in Towson got things started a couple of years ago, but, recently, dog places have been popping up all over Baltimore: Stuggy's Old Fashioned Hot Dogs & Sausages in Fells Point, The Haute Dog Carte on Falls Road, and The Wild Dog mobile wagon in Hunt Valley.
Rising To the Top
Chef Ned Atwater is on a roll with his successful bread, soup, and salad shops.
When Ned Atwater was growing up in the close-knit community of Catonsville, one of his favorite pastimes was going to Gilbert's to buy oatmeal cookies, three for a nickel. These days, the old-fashioned general store is long gone, but Atwater can now walk to his own place, Atwater's Naturally Leavened Bread, from his nearby home.
Chill Out
More local chefs are whipping up sweet and savory ice creams in their restaurants.
Aja Cage, the pastry chef at Salt, remembers her "aha" moment with ice cream. Her boss at the time, at an upscale Pittsburgh restaurant, asked her to check on some cilantro ice cream. "I thought, 'Wow. You can make ice cream with cilantro?' And it was a dessert."
Off the Eaten Path
7 West Bistro Grille
The genealogy is fairly simple—from a longtime Sunny Surplus store with camouflage gear and tents to an empty space to the short-lived, we-barely-knew-ye Blue Grotto restaurant to the current 7 West Bistro Grille. On recent visits, the new place was humming with diners.
Making a case for boxed wine.
Summer fun is in full swing! Boating, picnics, pool parties—all great activities, but none of them ideal places for glass bottles of wine. Fortunately, the producers of good wine have set aside their bias against alternative packaging.At the forefront of this movement are folks interested in organic farming who recognize the inefficiency of glass. Glass is heavy, after all, and requires lots of fuel to move it around, so its carbon footprint is formidable.
Main Attraction
Ellicott City cafe pairs vino and small plates.
Ellicott City's historic Main Street gets better with each new offbeat store and fun place to eat. Pure Wine Cafe (8210 Main St., 410-480-5037), which opened just over a year ago, adds non-stuffy sophistication to the mix. The cozy space has a brick wall on one side, stone on the other, and a stamped ceiling overhead. Patrons perch at the bar, sipping wine by the glass, or snag small tables and cobble together light meals, choosing wine from dozens of bottles, all between $20 and $135.
Re-Pete Dining
This Waverly standby relies on morning basics.
Pete's Grille in Waverly (3130 Greenmount Ave., 410-467-7698) does breakfast, not brunch; so don't go there looking for mimosas, goat cheese and spinach quiche, or crêpes. What you will find are good old-fashioned breakfast classics—coffee, eggs, pancakes, waffles, sausage, bacon, and hash browns—prepared simply and deliciously. We tucked into a stack of fluffy, chocolate-chip pancakes ($5.75) and a blueberry short stack ($5.75) during a recent visit. Both were loaded with our filling of choice and so absorbent we needed to reapply syrup and butter several times throughout our meal.
Bring On the Crabs
We've found 23 great spots to satisfy your cravings.
Sometimes, you just have to get down and dirty. And when it comes to our beloved steamed crabs, we wouldn't have it any other way. For months, we've been picking and clawing our way through local crabhouses searching for the best. The blues, in many cases, came from other waters, but it didn't really matter. As we found out, it's really the steaming and seasoning that makes the hard shells winners. We were also paying attention to ambiance, side dishes, and service. Now, it's time for you to get crackin' and check out our choices, in alphabetical order!
Spaghetti and Encores
A Little Italy restaurant turns an upstairs dining room into a popular cabaret.
It's a Sunday night up on the second floor at Germano's Trattoria, a Little Italy stalwart strung along the neighborhood's main drag. The pumpkin-colored walls are hung with vintage Art Nouveau posters, but all eyes are upon vocalist Sophie Louise Roland, a statuesque blonde in a diaphanous maroon dress. The evening's entertainment, she says, is all about "sensuality." Patrons now have all the more reason to look up from their plates of braised beef shanks and red beet ravioli. "No one is going to die tonight," she adds with a grin.
Wine Stewards Tell All
Insiders share diner bloopers
Ted Bauer, owner, The Oregon Grille"Years ago, we had a guy come in, and it was a special occasion. He said he wanted a bottle of Champagne at the table, and he got there early to make sure things went smoothly. He said that he wanted to open the bottle of Champagne himself, and while he was waiting for his lady friend to arrive, he kept spinning the bottle in the wine cooler. When she came, as soon as he took the cage off the bottle, the cork went north, and the bottle went south.
At Your Service
Diners get special treatment at chef's tables—for a price.
These days, with more diners yearning for proximity to the chef, the table closest to the heat and clatter is hands-down the best in the house. But a chef's table can range from an actual seating in the kitchen—allowing diners to spy on the meal in production—to a spot somewhat removed from the fray in a private dining room or wine cellar. Most offer a tasting menu of hand-selected specialties, frequently paired with wines, and personal interaction with the chef. Here are several we discovered.
Maryland, My Maryland
Local author highlights state farmers and watermen.
Harford County resident Lucie Snodgrass is so passionate about supporting our state's farmers and watermen that she's written a book about them with recipes. Dishing up Maryland ($19.95, Storey Publishing), which has a March 24 release date, features essays on almost three dozen Marylanders who are behind our local food—like Kate and David Dallam of Broom's Bloom Dairy in Bel Air; Jack and Becky Gurley of Calvert's Gift Farm in Sparks; and Jimmy and Michele Hayden, who dredge for oysters in Dorchester County.
Irish Spirit(s)
Perk up St. Patrick's Day with specialty coffee.
No one is really sure about the origins of Irish coffee. Some say a County Limerick bartender poured whiskey into coffee to warm up some American visitors in the '40s. Then, somehow, the drink migrated to a San Francisco bar with a travel writer in the early '50s. Regardless, the specialty brew is on just about everyone's menu these days, including many Baltimore taverns. We asked Mick O'Shea's Irish Pub (328 N. Charles St., 410-539-7504) to share its popular version ($5).
Green Acres
These days, radio personality Steve Rouse makes a pitch for fresh produce grown on his farm.
Back in the heyday of his top-rated WQSR radio show, Rouse and Co., Steve Rouse once rode his mower from Hunt Valley to the show's studios in Towson, cutting grass along the way, for one of his more memorable bits. "Allegedly, I drove my lawnmower from my house in Fallston to the station," says the 59-year-old Rouse, "but I fully admit now that I started in Hunt Valley, where the sidewalk began."
Best Restaurants 2010
Find out how we rank our old—and new—favorites in 2010.
Yup, we did it again—ranked what we consider the area's 50 best restaurants. The surprise this year is how many newcomers made the list and how many of last year's contenders (like The Brass Elephant) closed due to the economic downturn. We always start the reviewing process with everyone on an equal playing field—sort of like the start of baseball and football season. The past rankings are history. Then, our reviewers make their way around town, devouring pounds of beef, seafood, pasta, and desserts, even when waistlines scream for mercy.

This line is described in Hill's (1983:109-111) "Hikers and Climbers Guide to the Sandias" (I'm working with the 2nd edition; I haven't seen if this description has changed in the 3rd edition). Schein's (2003:75) "Sandia Rock" describes a slightly different second pitch. I followed Schein's line, so I can't comment on Hill's full route. Pitch 1: From the top of the pillar that marks the base of the climb, pull through some face moves that immediately get your attention, to gain a crack. About 2/3 of the way up the pitch, climb through some fun plate-sized chickenheads on the left and gain the prominent ledge that crosses the face (which constitutes part of Pitch 1 of the West Face Traverse); move right about 10-15 feet to the base of a short chimney and belay on gear from there. Pitch 2: Climb the short chimney and follow a nice crack to a point where the crack starts to turn into a left-facing dihedral. Hill's description of the route continues up this dihedral. Schein recommends traversing up to the right across a face to the bottom of another chimney with two obvious roofs. Pull through the fun upper roof and climb to the top of the formation.
This route generally ascends the right-center of the west face of the Tombstone. From the southwest corner of the Tombstone (at the flat-topped luncheon pillar), traverse north ca. 50 feet and then ascend through blocky 4th class terrain to the top of a semi-detached pillar (2nd pillar in from the south). Watch out for a car-door sized loose DEATH BLOCK part-way up to the pillar (maybe it should be trundled?). Two rusted 1/4" belay bolts mark the beginning of the route. At the top, walk off to the east and then south.
Standard rack of cams & nuts should do, with plenty of runners too. There are two manky belay bolts at the base of the climb, otherwise you will build gear anchors. There are plenty of trees and blocks to sling at the top of the formation.
This was a fun climb. I'd recommend bringing plenty of runners especially for working out over the roof (as I learned the hard way, not having long enough extenders through that section nearly ruins the climb for you ha ha). Rock was solid but be prepared to work around some shrubbery.
The steep trail consists of dirt and pine needles. If you hit a large felled tree which is sliced horizontally and laid perpendicular to the trail you can cut right and head onto another trail which will put you at the top of the formation. You could leave your stuff there and head back to the base of the climb. Yes, the shrubbery was heinous. Then again, I got off route and climbed up that face left of the bushy dihedral --retreated into the dihedral -- then traversed back onto the face. Not sure that was the best way to go. There's an old sling on a ramp with a rap ring at the end of the first pitch... it looks shady (as did the pathetic bolts at the start of the climb). But that ramp gives a better estimation of where the second pitch probably (actually) goes.
I knocked down the Death Block today as I was climbing. It was super shaky, the coast was clear below and I felt it should be done. Hope it didn't have any sentimental value for anyone.
A death block in the Sandias?! I can't for the life of me imagine that :) I'm sure your cleaning will be appreciated by the next ascent party!
One of the best 5.8's I have climbed in the Sandias. Excellent rock, ample pro, pretty vertical. What more can I say!
Climbed a much better variation to this last Sunday. After the first pitch traverse the ledge all the way over to the anchor for the 5.5's first pitch and go pretty much straight up from there. trend slightly right on sparse but adequate thin gear then trend left to some awesome 5.9 finger cracks. This part of the wall is vertical and clean and the finger cracks are really good. Step left into the roofs on the Schein variation but first pull some jugs right of the Schein variation and enter the wide roofs a little higher up. This eliminates the bushes on this route and makes for a nice clean, quality two pitches. Too bad the first pitch isn't a little longer. I would bet this variation has been climbed plenty but I can't find anything in print. Anyone?
I found the Schein variation way fun. The roofs look intimidating but trust the rating, going through the roof is really not that hard. Thought is was one of the coolest sections of 5.8 in the sandias. Unfortunately the awesome part is fairly short. The same holds for the sweet chickenheads on the first pitch.
If leading at your limit, suggest starting P1 somewhere well below the anchor bolts. This way, fall forces are smaller if the leader pops off the P1 crux plus it could help avoid a fall onto the belayer. You'll probably ledge out either way.

A Jewel for the Hair - Antique Comb
Hairstyles for the Victorian lady were all about upsweep. Wound and twisted and placed all into a knot. Little waves and a few curls. Arranged in a French twist and affixed with a bejeweled hair comb only that era could have put into existence. To quote McCall's magazine "The new hair ornaments that form the proper finish for all elaborate hairdressing and without which no evening coiffure is complete, are very artistic and graceful and in most cases extremely becoming."
Accessories for only the most fashionable of ladies, here is a beautiful example of the hair comb in tortoise shell and gilt metal. Fantastic waves and loops of gilt form a basket weave pattern throughout only to be outdone by an amazingly intricate peacock spray of gilt metal. All banded with a detailed surround. Light playfully moves with abandon across the surface with sparks of glint and glimmer. Flat polished surfaces and textured plaques challenge the circular pattern upon pattern. Swirls of burnt sienna, chestnut and caramel pirouette throughout the tortoise shell only to be enrobed by a jacket of warm, enticing gilt metal.
Measures 3-3/8 inches (8.6 cm) in width and 5 inches (12.5 cm) in length. In near mint condition with light wear to the metalwork. Circa 1870 and most likely English in origin.
Grand in scale, unquestionably tasteful in style for adornment or display.

Trip Ideas
Is it a charge down the ski slopes by day and put your feet up by the fire after a soak in an outdoor hot tub sort of vacation you are imagining?
Or, is your dream weekend getaway itinerary a tad more metro—think outstanding museums, upscale shopping at designer outlets, and fine dining at a nationally-revered restaurant?
No matter how you define your perfect vacation, you'll find it here in Maine. The state offers itineraries for every interest.
Want to bust out of the winter doldrums? Grab your skis or snowboard and head to the western hills where you'll find wide open trails carpeted in fresh powder, and plenty of other activities ranging from fine dining to fireworks and snow tubing to swing music.
In the mood to celebrate a special milestone with your sweetie? Sneak away to a coastal bed and breakfast for a weekend of rest, relaxation and romance complete with a crackling fire, horse drawn sleigh rides and decadent desserts made for sharing.
How about an energizing weekend of painting the town with your friends? Shop till you drop by day, hit a trendy restaurant and then check out a hot new club where you can dance the night away in Portland, one of the nation's most vibrant cities.
Or sometimes you simply want to get away from it all and there's no better place than Maine for that. Strap on some snowshoes and set out under the stars for a moonlight walk; curl up with a good book and a rich cup of cocoa in front of a regal fireplace; or surrender your stress at a downtown spa.
Whether you are looking for chills and thrills, rest and relaxation, or something in between, it must be Maine.

Exploring Bath A visit to Bath is like a journey back in time to the elegance of the Georgian period. This World Heritage Site is set in the picturesque countryside and is one of England's most beautiful destinations. Bath owes its importance to its hot springs which is quite unique in Britain. The Romans built a magnificent temple and bathing complex which still flows with natural hot water today.

Rambo went under the knife today...
Rambos been having some breathing issues for the last 1-2 years anytime he gets too excited, its been manageable mostly just coughing, but it's gotten progressively worse and last week he started having some panic attacks where he could barely draw a breath and was tough to calm him down from doing even the smallest things.
He was diagnosed with Laryngeal Paralysis, and I really had only 2 options, 1) have the surgery or 2) put him down - this condition just gets worse and it was already scaring both of us.
Because the surgery is expensive, I did get a 2nd opinion and was confirmed the Lar-Par, and had the surgery done today.
He's awake and resting comfortably so far without any issues, but is at the hospital tonight for 24hr Observation.
Seems like everytime I get an inkling to re-surrect the Hudson, something hits me financially to stop my motivation in its tracks...this time it was Rambo vs. the Hudson and Rambo rightly won this one.
If all goes well, he'll still be around and in way better shape come summer, by then maybe I'll have recovered enough to get the Hudson going. -
glad to hear Rambo is doing well. hopefully that will take care of the problem. i understand where you are coming from on pet expenses. me and the wife have spent quite a bit on ours this year. just like you, i wouldn't trade any of ours for a nice hudson.
Im glad Rambo is doing well too and hope for his full recovery.... Vet's have many more advanced care options these days but unfortunately, their not cheap..... Ive gone the same route for our Schnauzers...
Glad to hear Rambo is going to get better, at least he will be able to doggy talk to ya on those cold nights, where the Hudson will only roar once in a while ;)
Mike -
When our Greyhound was having an operation I told the vet his facility was much better than the local hospital: if I needed an operation I'd come to him except the tables were too short.
He said he would put two together for me.
Fred -
I've been away from the board for about a week, so just read about Rambo. Hope he makes a full recovery- he's a great dog!
We had a Pomeranian that got hit by a car, rear leg broke in 3 places- local vets talked about $2,000 + for surgery, and just recommended putting her down. Friend of my wife is a vet, she hooked us up with a guy near Ilwaco who does expensive surgeries as a hobby, more or less, and charges very nominal fee. Our friend "assisted", and he did the whole thing for about 600 bucks, of which half was materials and drugs. She recovered completely, and spent many more happy years running along behind when wife went horseback riding.
Hope everything else is going well for you. Hang in there, one of these days you'll get enough nickels to rub together to get back to the Hudson project.
Mike -
Thanks everyone, Rambo had a setback last night and is back in the hospital fighting pneumonia.
Won't know for the next 24-48 hours if he's going to respond to treatment.
I'll do what I can within reason, but it's in God's hands now.
Dogs and men have been together for thousands of years. It's a kind of symbiotic co-existence. Dogs help men to hunt and dogs get to eat what the men cannot finish. After living together with men for so long, I wouldn't be surprised if dogs consider men to be just a superior canine breed. Definitely a lot of men consider dogs to be better than human companions.
Why are dogs so popular as pets? I think one of the main reasons is that a dog is very sincere in its love for its owner. It does not cheat and lie to gain the affection of its owner. It accepts its owner as-is where-is, with no pre-conditions. Not many human beings can beat a dog at that.
I totally copy and pasted the above as I think it applies. I'll keep good thoughts for Rambo My wife Kelly and I are dog lovers and will never be without them. -
I really hope your Rambo can pull through and give you more companionship... Its a very sad time in the house when they get older & sick....
Your Hudson project will wait a little longer... -
Hi All - Good news, Rambo got pumped full of IV antibiotics and responded well. Still treating the pneumonia but he's nearly back to his pre-op self with the plus that he can breathe again...he even trotted across the yard last night, something he hasnt been able to do in months without getting winded!
Glad to hear Rambo's on the good side of mending up!
Theres a reason they are mans best friend! Not to mention we usually are theirs as well.
Couldnt imagine working under my Huddy without my bud curiously sniffing each nut and bolt with me!
Speedy recovery wishes to you both.
Jeff -
Dan, I hope all is going OK for Rambo. Hang in there.
Great news!
Don't know if Rambo would be offended by comparison to a cat, but it seems like that guy has used up several of his 9 lives already. -
Cassie and Winston are wishing Rambo the best!

Wishing Rambo a speedy and complete recovery. Bruce
My black lab Rocky gave up in early November, he was almost 13, he had cancer, dibetes, enlarged heart, and was blind. Best freind I ever had!! Glad rambo is good! Dogs are people!!

and a bunch of Crosley's -
hc - Sorry to hear about Rocky's passing.
Dogs are amazingly stoic - even when not feeling well, they still want to be with you.
Sounds like he put up the good fight as long as he could.
I'll give Rambo and extra pat on the head in memory of Rocky. -
Wishing Rambo the best
R.R. Thanks.

A unique villa that distinguishes for the quality of the materials used on the exterior and interior. Enormously luxurious and without being flamboyant, this house is apparently addressed to demanding individuals, satisfying extensive requirements of high living standards, offering amongst others smart home service. The large foyer with the fine paintings at the ceiling impresses the visitor from the first moment. The spacious living room and the dining room next to it enjoy nice views of the garden and the well shaped outdoor swimming pool. A comfy second living room with wooden wainscot around the fireplace is connected to the extensive library. The lounge under the atrium brings the nature inside the house, creating another cozy area on this level. The functional kitchen area hosts a casual dining, a serving room and the main kitchen. Upstairs, there are 4 huge en suite master bedrooms, each with its extra dressing rooms and grand bathrooms with unique amenities.

As the district is purely residential, no retail shops or commercial and professional business are permitted to operate, making the whole surroundings a residential haven. Ekali enjoys a very well designed road network with lots of roundabouts, giving to the area a sense of openness and serenity, which is further boosted by the green luch garden of the large estates abound.

Create sencha project with js files
Create sencha project with js files
This is my first post and I searched for answers to my questions, but I decided
to post here in the forum because maybe the answer is another.
My client has a application that was done using the sencha 1.1 (sencha-touch-1.1.1) and I would like to reuse existing js files (views, stores, controllers, components, models, resources, services) but the only way I found to do this was by adding file like resources, but I think I can´t use Sencha Architect facilities.
There are no project files (xds or xda) and I like to create one using existing js files. Its possible ?
20 Sep 2012 12:39 PM #2
I do not believe this is possible.

No, it's not possible.
Also, Sencha Touch 1.1.1 has a plethora of issues that 2.0 fixed, including performance issues as well as rendering issues like: http://moduscreate.com/orientation-c...e-android-bug/
I highly suggest upgrading to 2.1+.

After the Cold War
End of the Cold War.
Political revolutions never just happen. Rather, they are part of processes that begin long before they are discernable by political scientists or historians. Cold War ideological and military competition began in 1945 in the aftermath of World War II. The Soviet Union had driven the Nazis out of Soviet territory, across Eastern Europe, and back into Germany. After the war the Soviets insisted on establishing friendly governments in all Eastern European nations occupied by its forces; they also subverted other governments and formed a Soviet empire stretching from the western sectors of Germany across Europe and Asia to the Pacific Ocean. Communist revolutions in China (1949) and Cuba (1959) seemingly added to their empire, at least as it was perceived in the West. From 1945 to 1989 there was constant ideological competition between the United States and the U.S.S.R. for allies. That struggle was especially intense in Africa and Asia as many

Bush's Gulf War
On 2 August 1990 the Iraqi army moved into neighboring Kuwait and seized control of the oil-rich sheikdom. The United States and Western Europe were caught off guard by the unprovoked action, which threatened not only the world supply of oil but also the stability of the Middle East. These Western nations immediately sought a United Nations (U.N.) resolution condemning the action of Iraq. Saddam Hussein, the Iraqi leader, was surprised by the Western reaction, because scarcely a week earlier (25 July 1990) U.S. ambassador April C. Glaspie had told him that the Iraq/Kuwait border dispute was an Arab, not American, issue. This interchange, a classic case of cultural miscommunication, ultimately resulted in war. Hussein thought he had been clear about his intentions; the ambassador thought Hussein was merely restating an old internal dispute. Once Iraq acted, however, the West could not ignore the situation.
Desert Shield.
The U.N. coalition against Iraqi militarism was formed and led by President George Bush, who demonstrated his ability to deal with international relations. Bush contended that U.S. political and economic positions in the Middle East were threatened by the Iraqi action. First, Iraqi militarism threatened the balance of power in the Middle East. The United States had for two decades walked a delicate path in trying...

The Election of 1992
Clinton Elected.
Governor Bill Clinton (D-Arkansas) was sworn in as the forty-second president of the United States on 20 January 1993, after a close race against the Republican incumbent George Bush. The victory was most surprising because of President Bush's
popularity. Nevertheless, a slowing economy during the intervening months and a cutthroat three-way race among Clinton, Bush, and H. Ross Perot (I) allowed the victor to take office with 43.3 percent of the vote, while Bush garnered 37.7 percent and Perot took 19 percent. Clinton was a masterful campaigner and Bush failed to adequately defend his presidency. There was also a large measure of luck. Niccolo Machiavelli wrote in The Prince (1513) that one-half of success is based on ability and one-half on fortune (luck). Clinton's election in 1992 was a dramatic illustration of Machiavelli's observations—both ability and luck played critical roles.

Health Care Debate
Major Debate.
Health-care reform was one of the first and most divisive major-policy initiatives of the Clinton administration. Health care first became a public policy issue for Americans after World War II, when President Harry S Truman advocated national health insurance. The American Medical Association (AMA), however, vigorously opposed it, and it was not until 1965 that Medicare and Medicaid were finally established, covering retired persons and those on welfare, respectively. The remainder of the population was still responsible for paying for its own health care either through employers or out-of-pocket. The working poor were most at risk under these conditions because they did not qualify for Medicaid and generally did not work for employers that offered medical insurance. From the 1960s to the 1980s, health-care costs continued to rise because of inflationary trends and technological advances. By the 1990s even employers who furnished health-care plans found it difficult to continue to provide the level of protection to which workers had become accustomed without raising copayments and/or lowering benefits. Health maintenance organizations (HMOs) entered into this environment with the promise of lowering insurance costs by focusing on preventive care rather than corrective medicine. Though the premise was sound—save money by preventing expensive health problems—it assumed...

Natural Disasters
Natural disasters are a relatively common occurrence in a country as large as the United States, yet the severity of the events in the 1990s was unusual. Floods, hurricanes, earthquakes, and tornadoes hit the United States repeatedly, causing billions of dollars in damage and taking many lives. These storms and resulting catastrophes tested the wherewithal of a new federal agency, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), which had been established in 1979 to respond quickly to the needs of citizens suffering from a natural disaster. It was not until 1989 that FEMA was tested fully. Hurricane Hugo hit Charleston, South Carolina, in September 1989, causing $7 billion in damage. Because of the massive destruction caused by the hurricane, and the newness of FEMA, the
agency was unprepared to respond in a timely manner with sufficient resources. A second disaster hit scarcely a month later, on 17 October, when an earthquake measuring 6.9 on the Richter Scale rocked the Bay Area of California, dam-aging the Oakland Bay Bridge, causing fires in San Francisco, and collapsing a...(The entire section is 1365 words.)
Republican Renaissance?
The congressional elections of 1994 resulted in a Republican landslide as voters across the country, angered by President Bill Clinton's liberal agenda and afraid of socialized medicine, turned en masse to the Republican candidates. Much of the credit for their success, however, must be attributed to Representative Newton Leroy "Newt" Gingrich (R-Georgia), who came to Congress in 1978 with the goal of becoming Speaker of the House. As far-fetched as the goal may have seemed, Gingrich continued in this pursuit until 1990, when he was elected Minority Whip by the Republican Caucus. That position put him second in line to Minority Leader Robert Henry Michel (R-Ilinois), a moderate, whose gentlemanly demeanor was at odds with the scrappy and antagonistic style of Gingrich. When Michel announced his retirement in 1994, Gingrich seized the opportunity for leadership by promoting a "Contract with America."
Republican Promises.
The Contract with America promised eight legislative reforms in the first one hundred days of the 104th Congress and ten major pieces of legislation in the following one hundred days. The Republicans promised to clean up Congress by requiring that all federal legislation be applicable to Congress, reducing the number of committees, opening committee meetings to the public, requiring a three-fifths vote on tax...

Scandalous Administration
Campaign Rumors.
The Clinton administration was plagued by scandals and allegations of corruption. Women, money, and power led to the impeachment trial of President Bill Clinton in 1998 by the House of Representatives and trial by the Senate in 1999. From the beginning of his 1992 campaign, rumors swirled about Clinton's penchant for women. The first scandal concerned a woman named Gennifer Flowers, who alleged that she had a twelve-year affair with Clinton while he was the governor of Arkansas. She also claimed that he got her a job in the state government because of their relationship. Clinton refused to admit the affair and went on national television with his wife, Hillary Rodham Clinton, claiming that even though they had had problems in their then seventeen-year marriage, they loved and supported each other. The appearance defused the rumors and seemed to end Clinton's personal problems, at least until after the inauguration.
Jones v. Clinton.
The second womanizing scandal broke shortly after President Clinton's inauguration, when his opponents convinced a young woman in Arkansas, Paula Corbin Jones, to go public with an allegation of sexual harassment that had occurred in 1991. Jones claimed that at a political function Clinton had invited her up to his hotel room, where he exposed him-self. Clinton denied the...

Trials of a President
Since the founding of the Republic, only two presidents have been impeached by the House of Representatives: President Andrew Johnson in 1868 and President Bill Clinton in 1999. Neither man was convicted. Johnson was impeached because he refused to succumb to the dictates of the Radical Republicans in Congress when he fired Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton in opposition to the Tenure in Office Act (1867). The issue for Johnson revolved around how to govern and what treatment was to be given the former confederates after the Civil War. Though Johnson was not a strong president, he has been viewed sympathetically by historians, much more so than by the Congress that impeached him. The impeachment of Clinton was simply a tawdry affair. The issue was whether the president had lied to a grand jury in the sexual harassment trial instigated by Paula Corbin Jones, used his influence to cover up the perjury, lied about his actions, and if his sexual relations with White House intern Monica S. Lewinsky entailed abuse of power. Unlike the Johnson case, it was personal action, not political activity, that led to impeachment.

Albright, Madeleine 1937-
European Roots.
Madeleine Korbel was born in Prague, Czechoslovakia, on 15 May 1937, only a little more than a year before the outbreak of World War II in Europe. Her Father was a Czech diplomat and was forced to move his family to England after the German invasion of their country. They went back after the war and her father was accredited as a Czech diplomat to the United Nations in New York. She came to the United States in 1948, and in the wake of the communist takeover of Czechoslovakia that year, her father asked for political asylum for himself and his family. It was granted and Madeleine ultimately became a naturalized citizen. She graduated from Wellesley College in 1959 with a Bachelor of Arts in political science; earned her Master of Arts in international affairs, with an emphasis on Soviet studies, from Columbia University in 1968; and was awarded a Ph.D. from Columbia in 1976. She married, was divorced, and raised three daughters.

Bush, George 1924-
Early Years.
George Herbert Walker Bush was born in Milton, Massachusetts, on 12 June 1924, and was raised in Greenwich, Connecticut. His father, Prescott Sheldon Bush, was an investment banker and later a U.S. Senator from Connecticut (1952-1963). The younger Bush was in his last year of high school when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor on 7 December 1941. Like many young men of his generation, he joined the military at his first opportunity, enlisting in the U.S. Navy on his eighteenth birthday in 1942. He went to flight school and won his wings to become the youngest pilot in the Navy. He served in the Pacific and flew in fifty-eight combat missions against the Japanese. He was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross for actions taken after his plane was shot down over the water where he was eventually rescued by a submarine. After he came back to the United States early in 1945, he married Barbara Pierce and entered Yale University. He graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in economics. Instead of entering his father's firm, Bush moved his family to west Texas to go into the oil business. He was...

Clinton, Bill 1946-
Lost Opportunities.
Historians, political scientists, and psychologists will write at length about Bill Clinton and his presidency. First elected in 1992 with only 43 percent of the popular vote, and reelected in 1996, Clinton dominated the U.S. political landscape for most of the 1990s. He was the first president to be born after the end of World War II (1945) and he symbolized the rise to political maturity of the baby boomers. He began his presidency with the intention of resolving several high-profile, but seemingly intractable, political issues including national health insurance, balancing the budget, civil rights, and education. Like all presidents, Clinton soon learned that progress on any of these issues required spending political capital, and that significant progress on all of them was impossible. As the first president elected after the end of the Cold War, he enjoyed the benefits of an end to the hair-trigger military standoff with the U.S.S.R., but along with that came a host of new and unanticipated foreign-policy problems unleashed by the untidy demise of the Soviet Empire. Finally,...

Gingrich, Newt 1943-
Newton Leroy "Newt" Gingrich was born in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, on 17 June 1943 and spent most of his childhood years with extended family, or in following his stepfather to military postings in Europe. He learned the pleasures of reading early, and his years overseas influenced his interest in European history and led to his determination to be involved in politics. He graduated from Emory University (1965) and earned his Masters (1968) and Ph.D. (1971) degrees from Tulane University. Beginning in 1970 he served as an assistant professor of history at West Georgia College. While he was a popular teacher, he did not envisage a long career as an obscure academic and, instead, got involved in politics. After unsuccessful runs for a seat in Congress in 1974 and 1976, he was finally elected in 1978 after dropping his previous commitment to environmentalism and adding a strong conservative message.

Perot, H. Ross 1930-
New Political Force.
Third parties and third-party candidates typically share several characteristics on the American political stage: they do not get elected; they may attract significant voter interest in one election, but both the candidate and party soon thereafter disappear from the public's radar; they do not have an effective state-by-state grassroots organization; and any success they might enjoy contains the seeds for their eventual demise as the major issues they champion are absorbed by one or both of the major parties. H. Ross Perot, however, was not typical, nor was the third party he inspired and initially bankrolled. He ran for president as the Reform Party candidate in 1992 and 1996, and though he lost, he made a credible showing. The Reform Party continued to exist at the end of the decade, with several well-known political figures vying to run under its banner in the 2000 presidential election. In addition, it had success organizing on a grassroots and state-by-state level, and succeeded in electing a governor (Jesse Ventura, Reform-Minnesota). Finally, neither of the major parties successfully captured the major issues fueling support for the Reform Party. At the end of the decade, Ross Perot's political vision continued to draw support across the United States.

People in the News
Richard Keith Armey (R-Texas) came to Congress in 1985 as a supporter of President Ronald Reagan's economic policy. An economist, he quickly gained recognition in Congress as a leader of the conservative forces when he opposed President George Bush's tax compromise with the Democrats in 1990. In 1995, as the Republicans took control of the House for the first time in forty years, Armey sought and won the post of House Majority Leader. Upon taking office he delivered the line repeated often since, "The American people didn't give us power, they gave us responsibility." Armey continued as majority leader, even after the resignation of Newton Leroy "Newt" Gingrich (R-Georgia) as Speaker in 1998 and the election of John Dennis Hastert (R-Illinois) to succeed him.
Bill Bradley (D-New Jersey) retired from the U.S. Senate in 1996 after eighteen years of service. The exNew York Knicks basketball star returned to politics in 1999 when he announced his candidacy for the Democratic Party presidential nomination in 2000.
In 1992 Carol Moseley Braun (D-Illinois) was elected as the first African American woman to serve in the Senate. She lost her bid for reelection in 1998 to state senator Peter G. Fitzgerald, largely because of charges that her campaign finances had been misused. On 10 November 1999 Braun was confirmed by the Senate as U.S. ambassador to New...

Next Firefox 3 Beta
The Mozilla developers have worked around 900 improvements into the fourth beta version.
Prior to the final release of the browser, which is still roughly scheduled for early 2008, there will be a fifth test version.
Optimization with respect to performance, memory usage and stability are typical of the updates between two beta releases. The developers mainly attribute the speed gains to Javascript engine tuning.
Feedback from a testers contributed to the considerable number of improvements. Further bug reports are welcome at Bugzilla. The Release Notes have a full list of the changes. The major changes include work on the download manager, which considerably improves the user's ability to find files they have downloaded. At the same time downloads will be searchable and attributable to the website they originated from.
The new zoom function in the "View" menu, which is also accessible by means of a keyboard shortcut, offers various features for zooming texts, images and the whole page layout.
The browser's multiplatform ability is due to customized menu bars, icons and widgets in the style of Windows Vista, Mac OS X and native GTK themes for Linux.
