The United Nations was officially created when its charter was signed on June 26, 1945, by 51 countries, including the United States. The new international organization was the successor of the League of Nations, which had been formed by U.S. president Woodrow Wilson at the end of World War I in an attempt to prevent the kind of military aggression that might lead to future global conflicts. Unfortunately, the League had proved to be ineffective early on. Both Japan and Germany had withdrawn from the organization in the early 1930s and had later become the aggressors in World War II. Throughout 1943 and 1944, representatives from the United States, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, and China—allies during World War II—had met to discuss the formation of an international organization that would replace the League of Nations. At the end of the war, this organization—the United Nations—was formally established. The U.N. grew from 51 members in 1945 to 185 by its fiftieth anniversary in 1995.
The U.N.'s charter set out four primary goals: "to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war, which twice in our lifetime has brought untold sorrow to mankind . . . ; to reaffirm faith in fundamental human rights . . . ; to establish conditions under which justice and respect for the obligations arising from treaties and other sources of international law can be maintained; and to promote social progress and better standards of life in larger freedom." In order to promote these goals, the organizers established six different bodies. The Security Council, which consists of five permanent members (the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Russia, and China) and ten rotating member countries, was given primary responsibility for international peace and security. The General Assembly, to which all members belong, decides budgetary matters and votes on policy issues. The other bodies are the Secretariat, the Economic and Social Council, the Court of Justice, and the Trusteeship Council.
The United Nations' earliest priorities were nuclear arms control and disarmament, the protection of human rights, securing the independence of colonized countries, and the development of poorer countries. To control nuclear armaments, the U.N. promoted bans on nuclear testing, including undersea and space tests. It created the International Atomic Energy Agency in 1957 to promote the peaceful use of nuclear energy, and in 1968 it drafted the Non- Proliferation Treaty to halt the spread of nuclear weapons to more countries. The creation of the 1946 Commission on Human Rights led to the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. In order to improve agriculture, health care, communications, and economic development, a number of specialized agencies were formed, including the U.N. Development Programme and the U.N. Conference on Trade and Development. The U.N. often functions in cooperation with other international organizations, such as the World Health Organization, the International Monetary Fund, and the World Trade Organization.
Though solving world health, population, development, and arms control problems is a large and vital part of the U.N. operation, many of the most cur- rent and strident debates have centered on peacekeeping, a term that appears nowhere in the U.N. charter but has always been the organization's foremost priority. The term "peacekeeping" was first used to describe the activities of the first U.N. observer mission in 1948, in which U.N. personnel were sent to the Middle East to prevent hostilities between the newly created state of Israel and its Arab neighbors. The first lightly armed peacekeeping mission was conducted in 1956 along the Suez Canal to create a buffer between Israel and Egypt. This mission lasted eleven years and involved nearly six thousand soldiers. Thirteen peacekeeping missions took place during the first forty-five years of the U.N.'s existence, the most successful of which was the 1960–1964 mission in the Belgian Congo, which assisted that nation's separation from colonial rule. Nearly twenty thousand troops were deployed to the Belgian Congo, coming close to the number sent on modern peacekeeping missions.
These missions adhered to the U.N. charter, which was originally designed to limit the level of involvement U.N. forces could undertake to secure peace. The U.N. is also limited by its pledge of noninterference in issues that are "essentially within the domestic jurisdiction of any states." As a result of this policy, certain guidelines have evolved concerning the deployment of U.N. peacekeeping forces. For example, a host government must consent to any U.N. deployment, as must the country contributing the troops to the mission. Any country with a particular interest in the outcome of a dispute is not allowed to participate in the peacekeeping mission. U.N. troops are allowed to use their weapons only in self-defense and must remain neutral if hostilities break out. If the criteria for U.N. involvement are not met, the U.N. cannot take direct action. Such was the case in the Korean War, which is now often considered a U.N. mission but was actually led and carried out by the United States and its allies. The Persian Gulf War was a similar action. Authorized by the U.N., a coalition made up of the United States, Great Britain, France, Saudi Arabia, and other countries repelled the Iraqi forces that had invaded Kuwait.
In the 1990s the United Nations has participated in missions in Haiti, Cyprus, the Western Sahara, Liberia, Somalia, India/Pakistan, Bosnia- Herzegovina, and the former Soviet republics of Georgia and Tajikistan, to name just a few. It is because of recent missions such as these, some of which the U.S. has participated in or led, that controversy has arisen over the scope of the U.N.'s responsibility for military-style peacekeeping. Many of these missions, particularly those in Bosnia and Somalia, have widely been considered ineffective or even outright failures.
Many of the earlier peacekeeping measures, critics and supporters alike note, were successful largely because the conflicts were usually interstate disputes between legitimate governments that welcomed U.N. involvement. According to Raymond Carroll, a former editor at Newsweek and author of The Future of the UN, in most cases
both sides wanted the UN forces to be there, wanted the shooting to halt and were in command of disciplined military forces. The parties to the conflict were recognized countries, members of the UN, who respected the missions of the men in the blue helmets, soldiers who used their weapons only in self-defense.
Few of the more recent conflicts share these characteristics, however. Current conflicts are more likely to involve two or more parties within a single state, rather than separate nations at war. Carroll maintains that these conflicts "are likely to be partly ethnic, religious or secessionist in nature, or they may be factional disputes among purely domestic rivals." The more recent peacekeeping efforts have often failed because, in many of the troubled regions, governments have broken down, combatants have been unwilling to cease fighting, and U.N. troops have been unwelcome. Essentially, the organization and structure of U.N. peacekeeping has remained static while the nature of world conflict has changed.
Many of those who criticize the U.N.'s more recent peacekeeping efforts point to the disastrous shelling of U.N. troops in Bosnia by the Serbs in the early 1990s. Critics insist that the attack, in which U.N. troops were unable to fight back effectively, is proof that the U.N. is ill equipped for military missions. Some contend that the organization is not only ill equipped but that it was never intended to function as a military entity or to enter ongoing conflict situations for either humanitarian or peacekeeping reasons. Disarmament Times editor and U.N. journalist Jim Wurst asserts that the U.N. "has dangerously blurred the line between peacekeeping (working to stabilize a truce) and peace enforcement (the current jargon for fighting), as well as the line between military and humanitarian actions."
Criticism of U.S. involvement in U.N. peacekeeping operations has also become more intense, in part as a result of recent failures. The 1992 invasion of Somalia by the United States, under the auspices of the U.N., is often cited by critics as an example of why the United States should avoid involvement in U.N. missions. The United States initially invaded Somalia to provide humanitarian aid to relieve a severe countrywide famine, which had been caused in part by the disruption of food distribution by several competing factions. The famine was successfully halted, and the United Nations took full command in 1993. The U.N., along with American forces, stayed to try to rebuild Somalia's infrastructure (hospitals, civil services, police force, and educational system), but local leaders, and their heavily armed followers, objected violently to the U.N.'s continued presence. Several soldiers were killed, including a number of Americans. The body of one American was shown on the evening news being dragged through the streets of Somalia's capital. Ultimately both the United States and the United Nations left Somalia, leaving it largely in chaos. After this experience, many American politicians and foreign policy experts were more convinced than ever that the United States should refrain from sending American troops on U.N. missions. California representative Andrea Seastrand sums up the views of many critics of America's involvement in U.N. operations: "This entangling alliance with the world body and its web of specialized agencies and institutions has resulted in our involvement in one foreign quarrel after another, from Korea to Vietnam to Bosnia. We have paid dearly, in terms of blood, treasure and potential loss of sovereignty."
While Somalia is universally acknowledged as a military failure, supporters of the United Nations assert that the primary goal of that mission—to end the famine—was accomplished. Supporters also contend that it is shortsighted to argue that a few difficult or failed missions prove that the greater goal of keeping the peace is no longer worthwhile. They maintain that intrastate conflicts that produce floods of refugees, famine, and genocide violate the "moral conscience" of the world, if not specifically the U.N.'s charter. These supporters of U.N. intervention suggest, for example, that the genocide in Rwanda in 1994 could have been halted or even prevented had the now gun-shy United Nations intervened sooner. More than five hundred thousand people were killed in Rwanda during a struggle for power between members of two rival ethnic factions. Hundreds of thousands more poured across the borders into neighboring countries, straining their economies and threatening to drag them into the fight, which ultimately could have destabilized the entire region. U.N. supporters contend that fear of another Bosnia- or Somalia- style failure hampered a timely U.N. intervention in that conflict.
Lincoln P. Bloomfield, a professor emeritus of political science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, asserts that many of the United Nations' members have collectively concluded that enforced famine, terror, racial genocide, and other atrocities are unacceptable, violating the spirit of the U.N. charter. Bloomfield and others argue that these situations necessitate an international response similar to those of earlier, more circumscribed missions. The U.N. response to these new kinds of international crises should, according to Bloomfield,
feature compliance procedures that resemble a process of law enforcement. It will look less like a traditional binary choice between war or peace and more like a step process that mimics domestic policing. Violations of agreed rules will take many forms along a broad continuum, matched by a continuum of community responses.
Many of those who support continued U.N. involvement in peacekeeping efforts around the world also clearly support continued American involvement in those efforts. The United States is generally considered to be the only remaining superpower, whose leadership in conflict situations is necessary. Within the United States, supporters argue that U.S. involvement in the United Nations allows America to promote its own economic and political interests abroad without appearing to be heavy-handed or the "world's policeman." The U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, Madeleine K. Albright, supports this view and contends that joint peacekeeping efforts cost the United States less and involve fewer American troops than do unilateral efforts. The Center for Defense Information, a defense analysis organization in Washington, D.C., asserts:
The U.S. can, at significantly less cost, wield great influence over world events and achieve U.S. policy goals by remaining fully engaged in planning and implementing UN peace operations. Not only is such engagement cheaper, it allows us the luxury of influencing events with minimal commitment of U.S. military personnel.
The center concludes that the United States must continue to be involved in U.N. peacekeeping.
The debates over U.N. peacekeeping operations will likely continue as new conflicts arise and old ones simmer. This is only one of several controversies in which the U.N. remains embroiled. International calls for fiscal and organizational reform are as loud as the criticisms of peacekeeping, with some accusing the U.N. of incompetence or even outright corruption. In addition, the United Nations has become a central target of many right-wing militias and others who assert that the international body threatens the freedom and sovereignty of the United States. These and other issues are discussed and debated in At Issue: The United Nations. This anthology reveals that after more than fifty years, opinion regarding the U.N.'s structure and mission is far from unanimous.

ANTWERP, Belgium, September 23, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
Imagine Cartier, Boucheron, Dior and the likes selling loose diamonds as an investment? Hard to believe, taking into account the enormous premium margins they take on their sold diamond jewellery. In fact, selling the diamonds at their intrinsic value would undermine these brands' jewellery business.
Not so for BAUNAT, worldwide recognized as the first (and today still only) online diamond jewellery brand (http://www.baunat.com), contrasting to a large contingent of online generic - supermarket like - diamond jewelers, with US based Bluenile being the pioneer. In response to supply and demand indicators projecting a structural increase of diamond prices on the world market, BAUNAT is proud to announce the launching of http://www.baunatdiamonds.com, a comprehensive site in 6 languages (English, French, Dutch, Spanish, German and Chinese, with Portuguese & Russian to follow in 2014). Via this site, which is unique in its kind, BAUNAT DIAMONDS positions itself as the worldwide reference for diamond related purchases & investments (minimum budget: € 10000,-), aiming at offering the best price/quality ratio to maximize the chances for future profitability of its clients' diamond investments.
By doing so, BAUNAT manages to do where established brands have failed so far. Indeed, by entering into this promising segment, BAUNAT becomes the first and only diamond jewellery brand selling also loose diamonds as an investment.
This unique positioning is due to BAUNAT's core brand values whereby proposed prices always reflect the intrinsic value of the underlying components of the offered products and services. Credit to this is BAUNAT's exceptional ability to buy diamonds at the source at the best possible prices (via a carefully developed network of 'niche' diamond manufacturers, mainly located in Surat, India), complemented by an ingrained corporate culture to eliminate all possible intermediaries. No way to pay extra for process- and cost inefficiencies, which do not contribute to the quality of the final product. As this unique price/quality philosophy is obviously very suitable to accommodate the needs of the investment diamond client segment, for BAUNAT - contrary to the traditional diamond jewellery brands - both the diamond jewellery and investment diamonds business lines neatly complement each other.
BAUNAT, an innovative Belgian diamond jewellery brand, was established in 2008 in Antwerp, the world centre of the diamond trade. BAUNAT exports its high end branded diamond jewellery and investment diamonds to more than 50 countries, of which 75 % online & 25 % via showrooms in Antwerp, Paris, Geneva & Hong Kong. Both http://www.baunat.com and http://www.baunatdiamonds.com are today accessible in 6 languages (English, French, Dutch, Spanish, German & Chinese, with Portuguese and Russian to follow in 2014) and 4 currencies. In 2014 & 2015 new offices are planned in India, China, Brazil & Russia.

"I think that some people get carried away with it"
There is nothing wrong with thinking that. There is nothing wrong with the fact that Senator Durbin apparently also thinks that. The problem begins the instant that anyone tries to interfere with MY RIGHT to do so.
I can get as carried away as I'd like, as long as what I am doing is not infringing on the rights or well-being of other people.
There's been a lot of talk about people thinking it's ridiculous to worry about the government coming to take complete control of the population. It's not impossible. It's happened before. What I think is more likely would be a large group of so-called "regular people" running amok. I'm talking riots. The point is that I have a right to have the ability to protect myself and my family. Nuclear war is a possibility. I live in IL, and I'm well within the blast radius of several Nuclear Power Plants. These are known to be terrorist targets. I don't live my life in fear and paranoia of these things happening, but the fact of the matter is that they could. I'd rather have the ability to deter a group of panicked people from trying to take away my ability to survive.
It still boils down to one simple phrase: "...shall not be infringed." These 4 words were written over 200 years ago, and they mean the same thing now as they did then.

On Saturday, May 18, 2013, over 220 students from 14 area Catholic schools and their families came together at the Law School for the annual Catholic Middle School Mock Trial Program. Celebrating its 11th year, and co-hosted by St. Brigid/Our Lady of Hope Regional School in Westbury, this year's program was sponsored by the Long Island law firm of Duffy & Duffy, through the generosity of Managing Partner Michael Duffy `94. Photo Gallery 1 Photo Gallery 2 Photo Gallery 3 The schools fielded teams to argue People v. P.J. Long, a criminal case involving a 22-year old accused of assaulting another person with a tire iron in the parking lot of a popular hip-hop establishment. The prosecution put three witnesses on the stand: the victim, the victim's friend (who discovered the victim after the assault), and the investigating police officer. The defense called the defendant, the owner of the hip-hop establishment, and the defendant's best friend/roommate. The students spent weeks preparing their cases and practicing with lawyer coaches and mentors. On the day of the mock trial, they presented their cases in a realistic setting with Law School faculty, alumni, and friends volunteering as judges. "The student participants are only 12 or 13 years old," said Dean Michael A. Simons, one of the co-organizers of the event, "but they act like real trial lawyers ― thinking on their feet, making their arguments with passion and conviction, and then nervously awaiting the verdict. This is a wonderful, hands-on way for them to get an insider's view of our legal system, practice public speaking, and build their self-confidence. St. John's Law is committed to opening up the pipeline to law school for students who might not otherwise be exposed to these opportunities."
Paul Clagnaz, the Principal at St. Brigid/Our Lady of Hope and co-organizer of the event, noted how well prepared the students were and how thoughtfully the judges played their role. "This unique annual event stands as a model for the kind of community-centric, experiential learning programs that can immeasurably enrich Catholic education," he said, acknowledging the innovative collaboration between a Catholic law school and the Catholic middle schools. "It is inspiring to be part of it."Participating Schools:

Iron Man 3.
Very good indeed. Possibly the best Iron Man movie so far.

It was a nice suprise, I actually liked it. 8/10.
You know your name better than I do. YAY!
The Secret of NIMH
Oh my goodness, I haven't seen this movie in a long time, it's better than I remembered. I never realized it was such a beautiful movie. I obviously loved it as a kid considering I watched it a lot, but I guess I never knew why. Considering this is the movie that traumatized me as a child (yes, the whole movie traumatized me, I'm not kidding, I was getting flashbacks the whole time), it's one of my favorites. I have a feeling I take a lot of inspiration from this movie, though what elements exactly I guess differs depending on what I'm writing. Either way, it's such a masterpiece. I'm really happy that nothing was changed or edited from the movie when it was released on DVD unlike The Last Unicorn (somewhat with the latter, they removed the line "damn you" from the movie).
This for sure will definitely be the movie my children will grow up on. I feel so bad for the kids and adults who haven't seen this movie.

Iron Man 3 - 8/10
It was pretty good. Didn't have an overly long, annoying prologue like the first film. Still quite funny in parts, and the humour was dispersed throughout, so it remained entertaining. CGI was good, as expected. Also, very shooty. There were lots of guns in this film, more than I was expecting. As a result, there was a lot of action, which is good if you like it, though I sometimes find a lot of action to be boring if it goes on too long.
Spoiler:- For the film:
Who cares about cookies? Come to the Light Side, we have CUPCAKES!

Epic. Its funny and awesome as. 9.5/10

Amazing film. 8/10
Django Unchained I only watched it from around the middle but it was a pretty cool movie it was really bloody. 8/10
I just watched "Anger Management" with Adam Sandler. It is pretty funny, but the plot was the best part. The ending was great as well.

Oh my god, this movie was amazing. One of the best I've seen. Russell Crowe is awesome! Fighting with tigers, screaming at people to be entertained...this movie was awesome even thought it was pretty brutal. A bit like Braveheart, but not so much that it was a rip-off.
Definitely recommend it.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) -- A federal judge says she will decide next month whether to accept a plea deal that calls for BP PLC to pay a record $4.5 billion in penalties for its role in a deadly 2010 rig explosion and the massive oil spill it triggered in the Gulf of Mexico.
To resolve a Justice Department probe, the London-based oil giant agreed last month to plead guilty to criminal charges involving the deaths of 11 workers and lying to Congress about how much oil spilled from its blown-out well.
U.S. District Judge Sarah Vance scheduled a Jan. 29 hearing where she will either accept or reject BP's plea agreement with the government.
BP can withdraw its plea agreement if she rejects the deal.

Peter Lovelock of Colour Confidence
During this talk we will explore how to take control, and maintain mastery of colour from capture right through to print. We will understand how the eye 'sees' colour; control what happens at capture; give recommendations for settings in key programs; and reduce the stress caused by getting prints back that are just 'not quite right'. We will cover many topics including the use of profiles, how, why and when it is best to make use of them.Free tea, coffee and biscuits throughout the day. Bring a pack lunch.
Peter Lovelock of Colour Confidence
Here we will investigate and understand the origins of the software and how to control and utilise the 'U-Point' control system. We will look at each of the six plug-ins in detail - from noise reduction to colour effects, HDR technology to sharpening (a difficult subject at the best of times!) and show how to bring structure to your images both in colour and creating stunning black and white images.
About the speaker: Gaining a City & Guilds qualification in Photography, whilst working in the reprographics department of a large technical college, gave Peter Lovelock a unique insight into both the capture and production side of the industry. Following a brief spell as main photographer, he moved on into other avenues ending up working for the Tecno Retail Group as manager of the Fox Talbot branch in the Strand. After many years of capturing images both personally and professionally, a move to KJP (now Calumet) enabled him to use his knowledge to become a key part of the Digital Solutions team and later European Training Manager. Peter is currently employed by Colour Confidence, one of the UK's fastest growing technology-led distributors, and is part of the team that de-mystifies colour management and evangelises about the Nik software plug-ins.
There will be opportunities for attendees to purchase items at concessionary prices at this event.
Free tea, coffee and biscuits throughout the day. Bring a pack lunch.

The UpLift 900 Black Base Standing Desk is available with a durable cherry, mahogany, maple or black laminate top, in the following sizes:
A butcher block wood desktop is also available in a 61'' W x 29.5'' D cut. The butcher block top features a smooth-sanded surface made of natural beech for a clean, raw look. The wood can also be stained or finished for a more traditional appearance.
The Advanced Wire Management Kit is a complete cable organization system for your height-adjustable desk. We developed this kit after years of desk installations. It's a proven way to easily manage all computer and electric desk cords. The kit includes the following:
Click the video below to get some helpful tips on making the most of your UpLift Advanced Wire Management Kit:
The included cable organization tray forms the crux of your wire management solution with a sleek, black design that seamlessly blends with your desk's design and mounts securely to the desktop with two self-tapping wood screws or a strip of included double-sided tape. At 3.6'' wide, this tray is wide enough to accommodate cords, power supplies and the included power strip, minimizing below-desk clutter.
10 self-adhesive wire mounts and 100 single-use cable ties allow for cables to be bundled and pulled taut against the bottom of the desk, eliminating hanging wires.As your workstation develops over the years, it's likely that you'll need to re-bundle wires for routing or storage inside the wire management tray. A set of 10 reusable cable ties is also included, allowing for modification of cable bundling as needed without needing to replace individual cable ties.
Additionally, the Advanced Wire Management Kit provides a desk-to-wall cable organizer to organize wires running from an outlet or equipment to your desk in a single bundle. The desk-to-wall cable organizer's heavy-duty "spiral" design protects the cables inside from wear and tear, while also allowing cables to be integrated into the organizer or removed from it easily. An included quick wire add/remove tool rapidly and efficiently routes cables into the organizer.
Finally, if you need more power outlets close at hand, or just need an all-in-one power solution, a clamp-on surge protector with USB charger can be added to the Advanced Wire Management Kit or ordered as a standalone product. This unique surge protector features six power outlets with space for two large AC adapters as well as a pair of ports for charging USB devices. Capable of clamping onto any surface up to 1 3/8'' thick, this surge protector can placed nearly anywhere on your desk for convenient outlet access. Please note that this surge protector will not fit inside of the wire management tray and must be mounted on the desk edge.
A 3'' grommet hole can be added to your UpLift desk to allow for through-desk cable routing or monitor arm mounting. The holes can be drilled on the rear of your desk in either the left, right, center, or a combination of the three. Corner desk grommet holes are drilled 2'' from the left or right side and 2.5'' from the rear edge, with central grommet holes placed in the center of the desk 2.5'' from the desk's rear edge. Each grommet hole includes your choice of black or chrome grommet hole covers. The black grommet hole covers also feature flip-top tabs that cover the cord slot when not in use. For custom grommet hole positions, please call us at 1-800-531-3746.
The UpLift 900 Standing Desk can be ordered with optional casters. The casters come in a set of four - two for each leg. They can be locked to keep the desk stationary, but easily unlocked when you need to roll the desk.
Please note: the casters will add approximately 2.25 inches of height to your desk.
Add an UpLift Sit-Stand desk mat to your desk order, and receive an additional discount off the regular mat price. Our UpLift Sit-Stand anti-fatigue desk mats are extremely durable and comfortable. The padding is an inch thick and the surface is puncture-proof to withstand high heels or even the wheels of your chair. Choose from a 2' x 3' size or a 3' x 5' size.
Note: If you wish to use your UpLift Sit-Stand desk mat as a chair mat as well, you will need the 3' x 5' size.
When using a sit-stand desk, we recommend mounting your computer beneath your desktop to prevent cables from being stretched and pulled out of their ports when moving the desk from sitting to standing positions. We don't recommend leaving your CPU on the floor, as most cords aren't long enough to stretch from a computer placed on the floor to the standing height of your desk. While one option is to place your CPU on top of your desk, a CPU holder allows you to securely attach your computer tower to the bottom of your desktop to free up desk space. For an adjustable CPU holder at a discounted price when bundled with this desk, both our own UpLift CPU Holder and the Humanscale CPU600 CPU Holder feature a 360° swivel mount and a gliding track mechanism for easy access to your computer.
Click the video below to see the many features and benefits of the UpLift CPU Holder:
A monitor arm is almost always better than the stands that most monitors come with. Monitor arms allow you to easily move the monitor in and out, side-to-side, and up and down, while allowing you to make use of the desktop surface under the monitor. It is best not to use valuable and convenient desktop space with your monitor stand - most people push their monitor too far back to save desktop space and end up with a hunched back as they strain forward to see the screen. Most people that we sell a monitor arm to come back to us and say that they should have gone with a monitor arm years ago.
The Budget Single Monitor Arm and Budget Dual Monitor Arm allow you to elevate your VESA-compatible displays off of your desk and easily move the monitor in the horizontal plane (in and out, side-to-side) by using your fingertips to move the monitor. To move the monitor vertically you need to adjust the vertical position of the arm where it mounts to the vertical pole at the back of your desk. For users who want easier vertical adjustment, there's the Innovative EVO II and Innovative 7500 Wing Dual LCD monitor arms. These stylish, heavy-duty monitor arms provide complete fingertip adjustment for height, depth and lateral movement. They support monitors weighing up to 20 lbs. with an adjustable vertical counterbalance system that allows for fingertip vertical monitor adjustment, and we offer them at a discount when bundled with your UpLift standing desk. For dual monitor users with a wide desktop or a chair next to a treadmill or bike, we recommend the Innovative 7500 because it can easily swing the dual monitors in tandem from one side of the desk to the other.
See how easy it is to adjust the position of your monitor with the Innovative EVO II LCD Monitor Arm by clicking the video below:
An ergonomic keyboard tray is an excellent accessory for your UpLift 900 desk, and our in-house UpLift Large Keyboard Tray, as well as the 500 and 900 model Humanscale Keyboard Trays, have been specifically configured for use with a desk with a crossbar. Our UpLift keyboard tray features 8'' of height adjustment and 20° of negative tilt adjustment, as well as a removable foam palm support and a foam mouse pad and cord manager that can switch sides for ambidextrous mouse use. Or, choose between a Humanscale "Big Board" 500 keyboard platform or a smaller 900 platform with a separate 8.5" diameter high-clip mouse platform. Both Humascale keyboard systems feature a shorter 5GSM mechanism that gives you 4" of height adjustment and 15° of tilt and allows for four more inches of storage under the desk than a standard Humanscale mechanism.
All three keyboard tray options have been discounted when bundled with your UpLift desk and come with a shorter 11" track to mount the keyboard tray without interference from your desk's support beam underneath. While the 11'' track length will not allow you to fully store your tray along the track under your desk, we find that most users never fully retract their tray even if they have that capability. For users with a 60'' or wider desktop, you can take advantage of the 360° of rear swivel at the mechanism available on all three keyboard tray options to rotate your platform around underneath the desktop for storage. To achieve a fully-retractable keyboard tray along the track, you must mount a full track (21'' on the UpLift Keyboard Tray and 22" on the Humanscale Keyboard Tray) under the desk, which is available on our UpLift 920 Desk with no crossbar interference.
For a little bit of extra storage, add an UpLift Half Circle Desk Drawer at a discounted price when bundled together with your desk. This half-circle-shaped, swiveling drawer easily attaches to the underside of your desktop via a central mount and pivots in either direction, rotating out to give you quick and easy access to smaller accessories that you don't want cluttering up your desktop. Featuring pen and pencil trays, a notepad slot, a tape dispenser, and storage compartments, the 13.6'' W x 7.4'' D x 1.3'' thick UpLift accessories drawer will help keep your height adjustable desk cleaner and more organized.
The Two-Drawer Mobile Pedestal is a great addition to your sit-stand workstation. When ordered with the desk, you'll receive an additional $80 off the pedestal price. The pedestal is available in a maple, mahogany, cherry or black finish, to match your laminate desktop.
This pedestal provides a stylish and convenient place to store your documents and office supplies. Includes casters for easy movement and a locking top drawer for security and privacy.
The Raynor Evo Chair is an extra-comfortable executive task chair. Covered in soft foam and upholstered in stain-resistant fabric, this chair is available in three fashionable colors at a significant discount when purchased with your UpLift 900. You won't be sitting as often anymore, but it's still nice to have an attractive and functional chair. We don't recommend this chair for users who sit more than 3-4 hours per day, as they should buy a more ergonomic chair like the Ergohuman V2 chair.
The Raynor Nuvo Mesh Chair with Headrest has an array of ergonomic adjustments that include adjustable lumbar support, a seat slider and adjustable arm rests. The Raynor Nuvo also features extremely comfortable and breathable Italian Soft Touch Mesh upholstery and a removable headrest. Already a great value, bundle this chair with your desk and get a great discount!
The Ergohuman V2 Chair is one of our most popular ergonomic chairs, featuring a five-position back angle tilt lock, four-way adjustable arms, a seat pan slider, and well-pronounced lumbar support. These chairs are available in both mesh and leather upholstery, and can be bundled with the UpLift 900 for great savings!
Want to see all the features and adjustments available on these chairs? Watch the videos below for a demonstration:
The Goldtouch Go! Travel Notebook and Tablet Stand will come in handy not only when you're traveling, but anytime you want to set your laptop or tablet in an ergonomic position. Choose from seven different height settings to keep your screen at eye-level, which helps you avoid problems like eye strain and neck and back pain. This item also works well as a document holder, allowing you to input data without having to move your neck repeatedly from document to screen. The stand is lightweight and easily portable, yet strong enough to support laptops up to 17'' in length. Best of all, it's free!

What size In/Out/Pending boxes would you recommend? Letter or legal size? I use letter size folders & file cabinet. I only have a couple of items that are legal size, but I'm thinking that other "stuff" will be going in the In & Out boxes, so legal size may be the say to go. . . I'm wondering what others have found best.
Also, how many trays are you using? 2, 3, 4, more? In/Out? Pending? other?
Do you have them stacked, laid out side-by-side,--or something else?
Did you find after starting with one way/type/size, related to your in-boxes, that something else worked better for you?
I think I like the large capacity Rubbermaid inbox best, http://www.officedepot.com/a/product...apacity-Paper/.
I would prefer clear rather than ebony, but haven't been successful finding anything clear that would be very sturdy. If anyone has any recommendations for that, as well, I'd appreciate it.
I am new to GTD and just beginning implementation. I have decided for now, to use a paper-based system. I've updated my Day-Time (8-1/2 x 11, two-page monthly calendar & two-page/day daily sheets) with sections behind my calendar for my action lists, projects, etc.--and am now beginning to get my office area organized & creating my tickler and reference files. (I attempted collecting/processing, but realized that without the basic structure in place, I've just created more stress and feeling extremely overwhelmed.) I can't thank Kelly & Meg enough for the "Blackbelt #1, Organizing" podcast! It makes perfect sense to me to organize first--at least by getting the basics in place before beginning to collect and process.
I finished my two-week free trail of GTD Connect this past weekend. I can't recommend strongly enough that everyone, who hasn't already, take advantage of this wonderful opportunity. It was fantastic! The best thing I could have done. I'm wondering who has logged in the most hours during their 14-day free trail, because I just might be eligible for the award on that one!
Kelly, you ARE THE BEST! Your clear instruction and guidance--and enthusiasm--have been invaluable in assisting me with beginning to get things set up and have a better understanding of the GTD methodology--and that's saying A LOT for me these days! I've had some issues with mental processing since an injury last summer, and I'm hopeful that implementing GTD will help me in making better progress with organization in my thinking and life! Though I also experience low energy/fatigue, my biggest challenges are with memory, i.e. remembering appointments, daily routines; getting things done (!!); and time management, i.e. appointments and being on time.
I would very much appreciate others feedback on what they've found has worked best for them, regarding their inboxes--and also in generally getting started with GTD! Thank you all so much!

Hey everybody,
I'd need your help or advice.
I bought the game in late September and today while drumming, I broke the pedal. It cracked and will soon be in pieces, so I can't play it anymore.
Is that covered by any warranty?! I didn't play THAT much, and it hasn't been THAT long since I got the game. I read somewhere about a 60-day warranty, but, it's beyond me if I can't get a replacement for a piece of hardware so cheaply built.
Also, I went on their rockband.com/warranty thing, and the page doesn't even work! It gives me an error!

Well today the greatest generation.
Is paying it forward a group of DBA veterans returning to the shores of Normandy 68 years later as part of a contingent of veterans and cadets.

That make these troops possible for us to go back to the beaches and removed from the -- days that we.
We'd like for more corporations -- -- forward and help us because we are a nonprofit organization.
Located in them -- I think we can help you with that I really do so we're gonna try to do just a -- Johnson pulled Wilson -- while.

Members of the Action 4 News team worked together to bring you this report.
A Brownsville mother has been charged with child endangerment after leaving four children home alone with her 14-year-old nephew on Saturday.
Cameron County Sheriff's Department got a phone call around 11:30 p.m. about children being alone at an apartment complex on the 2600 block of Carlos Ave.
When a deputy arrived, he found the 14-year-old with two 10-year-old's, a 6-year-old and a 11-year-old.
The teen said that his aunt, Virginie Macias, had left the apartment but he did not know where she was or what time she left.
The deputy called Macias and found out that she had gone to the Chaparal Night Club.
Macias said she had left to the club around 9:30 p.m. and put her nephew in charge of watching the kids.
She remains in the Cameron County Jail , where U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) have filed a detainer.

HTC Legend and Desire Smartphones with Enhanced Sense
Taiwanese manufacturer HTC announced at Embedded World in Barcelona that in the coming spring it will release two new Android mobile phones for which it further developed its Sense user experience.
Sense is the name of the user interface that HTC introduced in mid-2009 for its Hero Android phone. The interface distinguishes itself from others in that users can thematically assemble personalized desktops and views. The new Sense enhancements extend to social networking and contacts: the new Friend Stream client application uploads new contacts from Facebook, Twitter, Flickr and others to the screen. Users can group local contacts into Friends or Colleagues (see the Gallery). HTC added another news reader feature as well as a view of the seven screens that belong to the Sense concept. This view shows thumbnails of all the screens, in case the user loses the overall context.
The Snapdragon-based phones present their applications on 3.2" (Legend) and 3.7" (Desire) screens, respectively. Instead of a trackball they include a sort of finger-operated optical joystick. The Legend also has the special characteristic of aluminum uni-body construction.
North American availability was not yet announced, but Vodafone and A1should be handling the phones in Europe and Telstra in Australia. The HTC Desire will hit the market Q2 in Europe and Asia; the Legend will roll out in April. Pricing will be revealed sometime in the future.

Meanwell 36V 350w NES power supply.
Tried to modify it for a lower constant current, but failed. Shunt mod did not work. Resistor mod did not work either.
Original shunt replaced with custom length of copper.
Fan mod permanently enabled.
Mounting for 4x fans cut into the case.
110V AC cord at the end of the AC end, and 4mm bullets and the end of the DC end.
Works fine. Just outputs 12A rather than the 9.7A promised, so it will burn up if used as a battery charger.
Adjusts to 30-41V.
If you want a power supply or another meanwell to hook in series with one that *can* be adjusted for a lower limit.. you can have this for $20 plus shipping.
Ships from Colorado, USA

As well as hosting round three of the FIA World Rally Championship powered by Nokia, the Leon-based contest marks the second event of the Production Car World Rally Championship season.
Five category regulars plus wildcard entrant Rodrigo Salgado will be in action on the mainly gravel event, which begins with the exciting stage through the streets of Guanajuato on Thursday evening.
Michal Kosciuszko (pictured) will take the start full of confidence following his impressive maiden PWRC victory on the season-opening Rallye Monte-Carlo in January. The Pole, who will pilot a Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X for the Lotos Dynamic Rally Team, has competed in Mexico twice before and is a recognised gravel specialist.
Nicolas Fuchs returns to the PWRC for a second stint following a promising debut season in 2011. The multiple Peruvian champion, who begins his title campaign in Mexico, is a potential frontrunner at the wheel of the Lancer Evolution X he will share with new co-driver Fernando Mussano from Argentina.
Benito Guerra can count on the enthusiastic support from the local fans as he begins his programme on home soil. The Mexican has joined the Ralliart Italia operation, the same time that guided Armindo Araujo to back-to-back PWRC titles in 2009 and 2010, and will be a contender for victory.
Italian Gianluca Linari will also begin his PWRC campaign in Mexico after electing not to nominate Rallye Monte-Carlo as one of his six scoring rounds. Highly experienced, Linari has recruited countryman Nicola Arena to navigate him this season on board a Subaru Impreza, the car of choice for last year's champion Hayden Paddon, who has switched to the Super 2000 World Rally Championship for 2012.
Swedish lady competitor Ramona Karlsson will make her PWRC debut in Mexico alongside long-term co-driver Miriam Walfridsson. With the PWRC not including a visit to Mexico last season Karlsson's absence of stage knowledge is unlikely to count against her.
