The First Word in Protective & Marine Coatings

A fatal accumulation of vapors from pools of spilled coating chemicals has led to 12 federal safety citations and $64,600 in fines against a Wisconsin manufacturer.
Ramon Torres, 55, of Horicon, WI, died quickly Nov. 29 from a toxic buildup of vapors from toluene and other chemicals in a closed room at Vivid Image Inc., in Theresa, WI. Thomas Persha, 65, also of Horicon, was found unconscious with Torres but recovered later at an area hospital.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration has issued 12 citations in the case, including two for violations considered "willful"—the highest level of infraction.
Vivid Image said in an automated phone message Thursday (May 17) that it had "discontinued operations" on Nov. 28—one day before the accident. If the company does not address the violations within 15 business days of receipt, OSHA considers the violations accepted.
Worker Saved
Persha's wife had gone to the facility to check on her husband when she had been unable to reach him. When she arrived, she saw both men, through a window, face down in the chemicals and called 911, authorities said.
A hazmat team found three five-gallon containers of paint and coating chemicals tipped over and empty.
The Dodge County Sheriff's Office later identified the chemicals as toluene, screen coating paint, and a resin used in coatings for metal. Vivid specializes in coatings for projection systems.
Persha was lucky to survive, authorities said.
"With great degree of certainty, this happened very immediately, very quick," Dodge County Sheriff Todd Nehls told the Fond du Lac Reporter.
Willful Violations
According to OSHA, willful violations are those "committed with intentional, knowing or voluntary disregard for the law's requirements, or with plain indifference to worker safety and health."
In this case, the willful violations were for allowing workers to work with toluene in an unventilated area without wearing respiratory protection and for exposing the workers to toluene beyond the peak level of 500 parts per million.
Toluene is a clear, colorless solvent commonly used in paints, thinners and glues. OSHA guidelines limit peak toluene exposure to 10 minutes per single time period for any eight-hour shift, with a time weighted average exposure of 200 parts per million.
Serious Violations
The company also was cited for 10 serious safety and health violations, including failure to:
• Evaluate toluene air concentrations; • Shut off the ventilation system and block the exhaust duct while applying screen coating material containing toluene; • Ban ignition sources from the coating room where flammable material was mixed and applied; • Develop and implement a written hazard communication program; • Train workers on the hazards of coating material; • Properly store flammable liquids; • Provide guarding on a table saw; • Prevent exposed electrical wires, by using extension cords instead of permanent wiring; and • Provide fork truck training.
• Evaluate toluene air concentrations;
• Shut off the ventilation system and block the exhaust duct while applying screen coating material containing toluene;
• Ban ignition sources from the coating room where flammable material was mixed and applied;
• Develop and implement a written hazard communication program;
• Train workers on the hazards of coating material;
• Properly store flammable liquids;
• Provide guarding on a table saw;
• Prevent exposed electrical wires, by using extension cords instead of permanent wiring; and
• Provide fork truck training.
A serious violation reflects "substantial probability" or death or serious injury from a hazard about which the employer knew or should have known.
Severe Violator
The willful violations put Vivid in OSHA's Severe Violator Enforcement Program, which mandates targeted follow-up inspections of "recalcitrant employers" to ensure compliance with the law.
"Vivid Image has a responsibility to monitor workers' exposure to known chemicals in its facility, ensure usage of protective equipment and train workers in workplace hazards," said Kim Stille, OSHA's area director in Madison, WI.
Prior Accident
Dodge County Emergency Management Director Joe Meagher told the Fond du Lac newspaper that rescue workers had been called to Vivid before, under similar circumstances.
"They were called out there a couple of years ago when a UPS driver found workers unresponsive," Meagher said.
No investigation was ordered, and the fate of those workers could not be determined Thursday, but they apparently survived. Only businesses with 10 or more employees are required to document work-related injuries and illnesses. Vivid Image has only three employees.
Comment from Car F., (5/18/2012, 10:54 AM)
This publication is starting to read like the Obituary, evidently the criminals are running amock killing workers and paying little fines for their crimes. A con man who defrauded a bank [didn't kill anyone] gets two years in jail. A company kills two employees and gets a small, token fine…......it tells you who is in control.
Comment from Anna Jolly, (5/21/2012, 11:35 AM)
In my opinion it is good that a trade journal includes the safety and health issues of that trade. Too many of these publications never mention safety, much less point out the risks of the business. This publication seems to cover all components of the painting industry, so that the managers of the business are aware of the effects of safety or lack of safety on their business. As a safety professional, it also allow me to understand safety in the paining business in context. I applaud Paint Square.

Vintage Warren Beatty in Splendor in the Grass
OK, boysenberries, I don't think I'm really on a vintage kick. I just happen to be checkin' in on some oldies-but-goodies, and I just can't keep myself from sharin' with my fellow horny citizens of the world. I think, for his day, Beatty was probably as close as you could get to "goofy-cute" — one of ol' squarebart's favorite categories. These days, that can be much goofier, but look at him, that's no Rock Hudson-style handsome! Those ears! Those lips! What a cutie, not to mention the rockin' body…! Apparently, they were talkin' about him when they titled the movie Splendor in the Grass. The movie's not bad either; it won the Oscar for Best Screenplay Written for the Screen in 1961. oxo squarebart

Just kidding... but now that I have your attention, here are some interesting Web Tech tidbits:
- Amazon aStore is a new product from Amazon that enables you "to build a dedicated shopping area that can be embedded within, or linked to from, your website." Mitch Ratcliffe and Nick Carr have examples and good thoughts on this. As Nick said, this is essentially a retail store widget. Hat-tip Emre Sokullu for sending me a copy of Amazon's email announcement.
- Never mind Amazon elastic computing, GData/Base is where it's at - so says Nick Lothian, who notes: "...the possibility of integration of data feeds from Base with Google Spreadsheets is an application feature that intrigues me." I agree and it's where Google could be at it's most dangerous in the 'Web Office' game - by mixing in APIs with online office apps.
- Garett Rogers wonders if a Personalized start page is coming to Google's new hosting service.
- Shopcasting - Fred Wilson has a knack for coining terms (or at least popularizing little known ones) and this is another beauty. The idea of 'social shopping' has been knocking around for a while, but with the increasing popularity of widgets - its time may be here.
- Speaking of widgets, check out Hooman Radfar's new blog Widgify. In his latest post he says that Widgets are the New Web Pages.
So the theme of this little mashup post (with a misleading title) is that online shopping, widgets, Web Office and structured data are beginning to churn out some interesting developments in the Web world. Watch these spaces...

Based on the best-selling book by Candace Bushnell ("Sex and the City"), this sexy drama follows three high-powered friends as they weather the ups and downs of lives lived at the top of their game.
Movie exec Wendy (Brooke Shields, "Suddenly Susan") does everything she can to balance career and family. Nico (Kim Raver, "24"), editor-in-chief of a hot fashion magazine, has her eye on becoming CEO. And free-spirited designer Victory (Lindsay Price, "Beverly Hills, 90210") longs to make her dreams come true -- and maybe find "Mr. Right" along the way.
Armed with humor and strength, these three modern New York women support one another through the triumphs and tears that are all part of making it big in the Big Apple. Also starring are Andrew McCarthy ("Joy Luck Club"), David Noroña ("Frasier") Paul Blackthorne ("Big Shots") and Robert Buckley ("Fashion House")
The series is executive produced by Oliver Goldstick ("Ugly Betty"), Timothy Busfield ("The West Wing") and Bushnell. Based on the book by Bushnell, "Lipstick Jungle" is from Universal Media Studios.

I took the show on the road this past weekend and went to my hometown, Binghamton, N.Y. While I was there, I met up with some of my close friends. One of my best friends , Savannah, has been in a relationship with her boyfriend for around 8 years. They own a beautiful house, a dog and a cat. He has a great career ahead of him and she is just about to finish her bachelor's degree at Binghamton University.
My friend, Carlene, and I always ask her how they've kept it alive for so long. And finally, this past weekend, I think she just revealed the secret.
"You have to fight for each other," Savannah said. "There have been times that I've just wanted to stop, and times when he has too, but you have to say, 'No, what we have is too good.'"
And she's right. These two love each other unconditionally. Her boyfriend, Tamer, is like an extension of my best friend, and I couldn't have picked anyone better for her myself.
While their relationship is a great example as to how long-term really can work regardless of distance (he is often on the road for jobs) or time spent apart (their job schedules are somewhat opposite), I can't help but wonder – even in the strongest relationships – when is it time to quit?
I've had my share of heartbreak and I'm sure I've been the cause of it as well. Just when you think you've found the right person, there is always that glitch – a glitch that may not be either's fault. And while you may be aware of this glitch from the beginning, it's hope that keeps you going regardless. Hope that it'll work itself out because this person is exactly who you've been looking for, yet you didn't know you were looking for them until they came into your life. The Hulk of superheroes in your eyes, perhaps.
Sometimes things don't work out for a reason – the timing isn't right, the distance is too far or personalities and goals don't mesh, or there's baggage from the past.
I'm a big believer in fate, at this point I have to be. So here's my take:
As for the timing, it'll come around if it's meant to be. The distance can always be taken care of if it becomes serious enough to do so and both parties are willing to settle down. As for baggage, well, each person you meet is an opportunity to start anew. Now about the biggest factor – the personalities and goals: if you've found someone who can get you for the genuine you, then they're a keeper. Fight for them.
Fight or flight is different in every scenario. Sometimes you know when things are done – other times it catches you off guard. But if you genuinely feel you have something left to give to that person and they're willing to accept what you have to offer, then like Savannah said, you have to say 'No, what we have is too good.'

We spent the day at the Palace Hotel in NYC co-hosting the Wedding Party with the Wedding Library and it was such a great event. Thank you to all of those who attended, but for those of you who weren't able to we're bringing you photos and ideas from behind the scenes.
Starting the day off, the amazing Colin Cowie spoke in front of over 400 people and I always love hearing him speak. Even though he is a planner to the stars and has lots of celeb A-list clients -- his ideas are useful and inspiring for any wedding or party. He shared some behind-the-scenes of his extravaganza events- but still with takeaways for a bride on any budget
He reminds us that this is your wedding -- you should make it your own. A clever idea is naming drinks after each of your bridesmaids. You can also mix-and-match different looks for your table decor -- so the tables go together but not everything is exactly the same. Or try using multiple elements on each table instead of one big centerpiece -- mixing and matching your arrangements. Try naming tables after something personal like songs you like or places you've been. Colin also says that serving a super big bottle of champagne is fun. Pashmina wraps (in your color palette) placed on the backs of chairs for all the women guests are perfect and thoughtful for an outdoor wedding. Make sure to make everything the best quality -- your guests will appreciate it. Another great idea is having waiters serve tequila in test tubes (tequila is an alcohol that keeps you up -- perfect for a party like a reception). And finally, use rituals and different shades of a color for bridesmaids like different shades of lavenders and violets. Thats a little peak into his talk
After the great advice from Colin brides and guests alike were invited upstairs to peruse several rooms with bridal vendors from everything from photography, to cakes, to jewelry and more. MSW had an entire wing with some of our favorite vendors we've worked with throughout the years including Sylvia Weinstock, Matthew Robbins, Pingg.com, Sally Hershberger, One Girl Cookies, Sandals, and more.

Sandwich Paradise 2
Get a taste of America's top hunger-filling, handheld feasts from a latke-and-corned-beef masterpiece in Colorado to a big hunk of BBQ bologna in Tennessee.
Go to EpisodeThe Carving Board
There are more than 30 sandwiches on the menu, including the Bentley -- a quarter pound of seasoned filet mignon served on ciabatta bread, covered with bacon mayonnaise, blue cheese, grilled onion and fresh spinach.
18607 Ventura Blvd #100
Tarzana, CA 91356
Cozy Corner Restaurant
Beware: First-timers are always taken aback by the unexpectedly huge slab of bologna that exceeds the circumference of each bun. It's recommended you try it "local style" -- topped with creamy, crunchy coleslaw.
745 N Pkwy
Memphis, TN 38105
Jerry's Sandwiches
Jerry's Sandwiches, located in Chicago's Wicker Park neighborhood, offers a lineup of well over 100 sandwiches -- and if you don't see any on the menu that you like, you can custom-order whatever you want!
1938 W Division St
Chicago, IL 60622
Juan Mon's International Sandwiches
Each "International Juanwich" is named after owner Juan Montero, a self-proclaimed "world-traveling, all about a good time" guy. Each sandwich folds in the flavors of the street foods he experienced while visiting his favorite cities.
1901 Taft St
Houston, TX 77006
Morrette's King Steak House
Pat's and Geno's in Philly aren't the only places to get a great cheesesteak -- believe it or not, one of the best around can be found in Schenectady, NY!
1126 Erie Blvd
Schenectady, NY 12305
Mother's Restaurant
The restaurant's Ferdi Special was created when Mr. Ferdi, a local merchant and regular Mother's patron, asked that some ham be added to his roast beef po' boy. When word got out of this unusual pairing, the combo became a local favorite.
401 Poydras St
New Orleans, LA 70130
White House Sub Shop
Part of the Atlantic City boardwalk for 60 years, the White House Sub Shop is not just a sandwich shop -- it's an American landmark. There's a lot of hype surrounding this place, and after one bite, you'll taste what all the fuss is about.
2301 Arctic Ave

Content Curation and the Future of Digital Publishing
Paul Chaney | August 23, 2012
If you're like me you are inundated with a constant stream of content from social networks. There is a huge need for streamlining that firehose of information to something more digestible.
In one sense, you can say that content is curated. We only receive newsfeed updates from our Facebook friends, people we follow on Twitter, or LinkedIn connections. Still, that reliance on our social graph presents no less of a problem. Just because I may friend/follow/connect with someone does not mean that I necessarily want to receive all their updates.
Filtering options are available. For example I can choose the frequency of updates from Facebook friends based on relationship or how many updates I wish to receive. I can also segment friends and those I follow into lists or circles, and create search scenarios on keywords, hashtags, etc. Still, that does not completely solve the problem.
Through the development of a new publishing platform, Medium, Evan Williams and Biz Stone, the founders of Blogger and Twitter, have set about to reinvent digital publishing in a way that casts curation in a new light – quality over quantity. Other applications – App.net and Svblte – are following suite with somewhat different ways. App.net is a fee-based version of Twitter and Svbtle is an invitation-only blog.
One publication that I rely on that places emphasis on quality is Smartbrief on Social Media. It is a daily email newsletter than hits the nail on the head by providing newsletters on topics of interest to me. It is curated by humans who do the hard work of scouring the web to find credible content and, for the most part, does a great job. (Disclaimer: I sit on SBoSM's advisory board.)
Essentially, the question comes down to one of content creation versus content curation. These days, I'm wondering if curation shouldn't be where we place the most emphasis.
I may be overlooking some obvious curation options and would appreciate your feedback. What are your thoughts on content curation? Are better curation options needed? What have you found that works for you?
PS: I'm testing out a couple of curation options of my own. The first is using paper.li's newspaper-esque curation tool and produce Social Commerce Daily. The other is a new tool I found called Rebelmouse, which I like especially well (more on it later).

Underestimate Jesse Ventura at your own risk.
He may be an ex-wrestler and a guy who sounds on the radio a bit like Howard Stern wack packer Bigfoot, but a lot of people have gone wrong thinking the man lacked intellectual heft.
Ventura, a former Navy SEAL in Vietnam, was elected governor of Minnesota in 1998 while running as an independent, a rare feat indeed. He has written 10 books, the last three with conspiracy specialist Dick Russell.
JESSE VENTURA audio excerpt: "Can you imagine the reaction from the Christian Right? That alone would be worth the price of admission. Howard Stern and Jesse Ventura! I think they'd be demanding a Rapture immediately!"
You can LISTEN to this interview with former WWF wrestler and Minnesota Governor JESSE VENTURA, co-author of DEMOCRIPS AND REBLOODLICANS: NO MORE GANG IN GOVERNMENT, by clicking the audio player above!
The thing I find compelling about Ventura's politics is similar to why I will tune in to Rachel Maddow on MSNBC periodically: while I might not agree with their opinions, I respect that the arrived at their conclusions thoughtfully and logically.
In other words, the man once known as "The Body" puts that brain to work, too.
Ventura made headlines last week when he kicked off the publicity tour for his latest book, Democrips and ReBloodlicans: No More Gangs in Government, on Howard Stern's Sirius radio show and not only announced his interest in running for president in 2016 as an independent, but making a convincing argument that Stern—who once ran for governor of New York—should be his vice president.
We'll talk about that.
By the way, this is the governor's second appearance on Mr. Media. Listen to his first, from 2010, HERE.

Story is fascinating.
The major indices moving lower today's so where -- the sweet spot in the market right now if you sort of take an area what would it be -- best in my next guest has two billion dollars in assets under management.
Says he knows the answer Jim -- south Texas money management president and chief economist at what is the answer where sweet spot.
Well we think there's a lot of value in mid cap stocks they're pretty well positioned to take advantage when we got -- -- on the -- you know I'd say between two and twelve billion.
It's it's it varies from manager to manager -- that's what I look at and what it means a company that it is split the global footprint or are still growing more closely to the United States we can find mid caps that do -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- some -- -- -- as well -- -- -- -- -- love our viewers to -- -- previous -- because they've done.
Mostly extremely well you picked General Motors.
Since depicted an October.
She gets up 48%.
Since Jim thought it was a good bye I wish you -- listen to him but if he didn't maybe it was some -- Wells Fargo.
Up 21%.
You also like Steve Ellis Stanley Black & Decker that's up about thirteen point 3% since October -- how do you pick a stock.
Well we have a bad screening process who look for growth and value stocks on the -- the two different animals and a growth stock you want.
Obviously accelerating earnings and and and top line that you really want to.
Stocks that have a thesis is gonna play out -- longer terminal value is looking -- a microscope you're looking for.
Undervalued assets -- the market seems to have treated at the transient problem as a permanent problem.
How closely watching things like monetary policy and the Fed and tapering.
Well I think to be honest I I think there's probably too much attention -- that I don't really we have monetary.
Policy problem here in the United States that -- -- that concerns more on the fiscal side.
So we watch everything.
But some things you know my job -- the chief economist -- know what's really worth -- to pay attention to what's not so you don't hang on every word out of the fatter every -- head and speaks and absolutely not I've been watching things like the outcome of the German elections the price of oil.
Record and -- -- a few other things to your -- -- -- put out west Texas writing what you really want.
Really the US and global economy growing pretty slowly.
And the one thing that that causes recessions the shocks and an oil price shock.
In a slow growth economy has a much bigger chance to cause we're gonna see a shock I doubt and that's not a forecast that's what -- watch and it's easy to their.
Well interestingly enough as you're watching for shock levels you're picking -- oil stock and by the way so this is the big moment where we tell you start writing these down if he missed his last picks that have done pretty well.
What name do you like in this area.
Well for effort energy in general a company it's kind of tapped into a lot of that they energy revolution is Dresser-Rand they make a lot of the compression reciprocating equipment that Houston is -- fluids in fuels and transmission and anything really all oil and gas.
So we think that's a great midcap stock as well -- -- -- -- takeout candidate but it's not priced as one yet.
Okay your next -- It is is I would say -- bet on the resurgence of manufacturing and that's Rockwell right if you automation.
Yes Rockwell Automation if you talk to the global.
Shippers they'll tell you that the outsourcing trend is -- peak is coming back -- And that favors from manufacturing in the US as well as cheap natural gas Rockwell.
Builds out manufacturing plants they're also.
-- -- automation a lot of these Asian economies with.
Higher labor costs -- wanting automate pretty quickly so it's a great midcap stock for from June kind of industrial names you go to food and that's -- -- deal -- health food conglomerate.
They just had to I was noticing the other day another 52 week high -- Pain is that company everybody should -- some defensive stocks and frankly defensive stocks are wildly overvalued.
Maybe not wildly bad overvalued historically.
And so we in the mid cap space Cain is is that rare creature that that that's a stable it's well -- it's got a great future organics.
And that industries expect to grow that explodes suddenly everybody's freaking out about gluten gluten free this gluten -- that -- is does that actually make a dent is that a possibility too I'm not sure what the percentage of gluten free products are pains of a couple miles.
But it's it's growing.
Some for health reasons some for medical reasons.
And retailers are starting allocate a lot more space organics and that's really where -- kind of has -- dominant -- as well -- great to have you -- great to be -- we will come and had a have you given you'll do another guest -- and we hope you'll have as good success is it that the last time I would -- we will put -- stock picks up on our FaceBook dot com slash.

"A range of companies once mass produced pinball machines, especially in the Chicago area, the one-time capital of the business. Now there is only Stern. And even the dinging and flipping here has slowed: Stern, which used to crank out 27,000 pinball machines each year, is down to around 10,000."

Cut a melon as soon as you get it from the store. Melons don't ripen once picked, so don't wait to cut it. If you are too lazy to cut a melon, it will deteriorate with time. At the end, you'll end up cutting it anyway, but the melon won't taste as good as it would if you cut the melon right away! If you don't cut a melon right away, you just lose :)
Once you cut the melon into chunks, you can refrigerate the melon chunks in the air-tight containers. It is difficult to find space in the refrigerator for the whole melon, but it's easy to find space for the melon chunks! Melon chunks take up less refrigerator space then the whole melon, and get eaten really fast!
Here's how to cut a melon the easy way:
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
Step 4
Step 5
Step 6
Step 7
Step 8

Men, red wine and steak: It's the classic combination, in all seasons and for all occasions, and especially for Father's Day, celebrated this year on June 17. In theory, this should be an annual day off for dads, a time for the rest of the family to provide a great meal and the right wine for him. But this recipe, for grilled skirt steak with sun-dried tomato and almond salsa, is so easy that, even if Dad can't be persuaded to abandon his station at the grill, he'll barely break a sweat.
Skirt steak cooks quickly, needs no marinade and is loaded with intense beefy flavor. And the salsa—whose toasty, briny and very gently sweet and acidic components provide just enough contrast to a range of Argentinean Malbecs (see our recently rated suggestions below)—comes together in under five minutes. Add some potatoes and a romaine salad, lightly dressed, and you've got a meal fit for a king—or a dad. Happy Father's Day!
For the salsa:
• 1/2 cup almonds, toasted and finely chopped
• 1/4 cup oil-cured black olives, finely chopped
• 1 medium shallot, peeled and finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
• 2/3 cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, drained and finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons best-quality red wine vinegar
• 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
At least 1 hour before cooking the steak, combine all of the ingredients in a non-reactive bowl and stir well to combine. If making several hours before cooking steak, cover and refrigerate. Adjust seasoning and bring to room temperature before serving. Makes about 1 1/2 cups.
For the steak:
• 3 pounds skirt steak, trimmed and cut into 5-inch wide pieces
• Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Preheat a grill to medium-high heat or heat a grill pan over high heat until just smoking. Season the meat with the salt and pepper and cook about 5 to 7 minutes per side for medium-rare. Let rest 5 minutes before serving, with the salsa drizzled over or served alongside. Serves 6 to 8.

Posted by Owen on 25/1/2011, 3:58 pm, in reply to "Feedback on London Workshop - January 2011"
Message modified by board administrator 26/1/2011, 2:18 pm
I attended the beginners workshop in London. I was apprehensive about going, especially 5 minutes before it was due to start whilst I was sitting in my hotel room. The workshop is held in a private meeting room in the hotel and is all very discreet, no one in the hotel knows or cares why you are there as it is quite a large hotel.
Andrew and Dan immediately made me feel at ease when I arrived. There was a good bunch of guys on the course, and meeting them all made the whole thing seem a lot more normal.
There is no de-sensing on the first night, just an introduction and a couple of drinks down in the hotel bar. It did feel a bit odd talking about your problem with everyone in the hotel bar, but liberating at the same time. The next couple of days were spent de-sensing and being given additional information and tips on overcoming paruresis.
I exceeded my expectations on what I thought I could achieve by attending the workshop.
Thanks again to Andrew, Dan and Colin and also to all the guys who were on the workshop, everyone was so supportive. If you are thinking about attending a workshop then I would definitely recommend it, you will not be disappointed.

Once again the thousands of globes on the Tree of Light will light up the season of goodwill. Joburgers are urged to buy a globe to raise much-needed funds for Hospice.
ITH 10 000 globes hanging on its branches, the Hospice Tree of Light will again be brightening up evenings at the Johannesburg Zoo, putting the spotlight on the goodwill of Joburgers.
And in the run-up to Christmas, the city's people are urged to buy the globes, which carry messages and dedications to loved ones.
Organised by Hospice Witwatersrand in partnership with Johannesburg Zoo and The Star newspaper, the Tree of Light initiative started 12 years ago as a fundraising project. Since then, it has been adopted nationally as a platform to send messages of goodwill, love, peace, hope and greetings to family and friends over the festive season.
"The event is in support of those who have lost their loved ones and those who are terminally ill and in care of Hospice," according to a press release from the zoo, home of the Tree of Light.
Globes cost R50 each, but companies are urged to pledge their support by sending dedications for R250.
"The proceeds from the globes will be used to provide sustainability to the Hospice's services to the terminally ill," says Desre Murray, the development manager at the Hospice Association of the Witwatersrand.
The lights will be switched on at a ceremony on Sunday, 25 November. Performing artists will include Vicky Sampson, Jacques Terblanche and the Soweto Gospel Choir. It will burn brightly at the zoo until Monday, 24 December.

In show of power, China lands first jet on aircraft carrier
On Sunday, China landed a jet on its aircraft carrier for the first time. The vessel only recently came into service, and is part of a initiative to boost military spending.
China has carried out its first successful landing of a fighter jet on its first aircraft carrier, state media said on Sunday, a symbolically significant development as Asian neighbours fret about the world's most populous country's military ambitions.
Skip to next paragraphSubscribe Today to the Monitor
The home-built J-15 fighter jet took off from and landed on the Liaoning, a reconditioned Soviet-era vessel from Ukraine which only came into service in September this year.
China ushered in a new generation of leaders this month at the 18th Communist Party Congress in Beijing, with outgoing President Hu Jintao making a pointed reference to strengthening China's naval forces, protecting maritime interests and the need to "win local war."
China is embroiled in disputes with the Philippines and Vietnam over South China Sea islands believed to be surrounded by waters rich in natural gas. It has a similar dispute with Japan over islands in the East China Sea.

If you were assigned to make a fantastical 20-hour, 10-part series about alien encounters, you'd think you'd concoct the freakiest, funkiest extraterrestrials ever conceived.
Not so.
Not if you're making "Taken," the alien-abduction saga that premieres at 9 tonight on cable's Sci Fi Channel.
"Steven said we had to respect the lore," says Jim Lima, the project's visual-effects supervisor. "We had to be faithful to what was said the most by people who had encounters."
Steven is Steven Spielberg. He is not only one of the most powerful people in entertainment, but also the man who gave the world "E.T." and "Close Encounters of the Third Kind." The man who can green-light so many projects gave birth to this one four years ago. It's on cable because no network could commit such a massive chunk of its prime-time schedule.
Because of Spielberg's decree, the aliens in "Taken" are rather standard issue: gray, about 4 feet tall, long fingers, skinny bodies, oversized heads with huge black, almond-shaped eyes. Spielberg scored with the acclaimed World War II miniseries "Band of Brothers" on HBO, and now he's out to see if an audience will stay with 10 two-hour, movielike episodes over two weeks.
The series follows three American families - the Clarkes, Keys and Crawfords - over four generations, from 1945 to the present day and slightly beyond.
It pays homage to major alien encounters reported in America's postwar history, including the most pivotal event: the supposed crash of a spaceship near Roswell, N.M., in July 1947.
"It's the coolest thing that I've ever seen," says Tobe Hooper of the series. Hooper directed the pivotal first episode (each episode has its own director). Hooper knows about "cool," not to mention strange, having directed "The Texas Chain Saw Massacre" and "Poltergeist" (co-written by Spielberg).
Although it was up to Hooper to integrate "the grays" into the story, it was the Earth-bound humans who received most of his attention. The director said he was hooked because the story was so character-driven.
"I liked that it wasn't sci-fi-y," he says on the phone from his home in Southern California. "It was like the real thing."
The real thing begins in the skies over Germany during World War II. Capt. Russell Keys (Steve Burton) is leading an Allied bombing mission. His bomber gets hit and is headed down in flames but is saved by some mysterious blasts of blue light. He and his crew are mysteriously healed and wake up in a field in France. But who really saved them and what was done to them after they were "taken"?
Keys returns home to a sepia-toned America to reunite with his parents and his best girl, something out of "The Best Years of Our Lives."
"I tried to give the characters that subtext, to give it that Norman Rockwell feel," says Hooper.
Hooper said no expense was spared.
"We had 60 locations and more than 60 actors. I had every lens, every cinematic toy," he says. And he had Lima.
The visual-effects guru, who had worked previously with Spielberg in television on "SeaQuest DSV" and "The Others," also had created outer dimensions for films such as "Space Jam" (he also designed the Green Goblin for "Spider-Man.")
"It was like doing 10 movies," says Lima on the phone from his home in Pacific Palisades, Calif. "We had 16 months of production. In my earliest discussions with Steven, he explained that science fiction is 'Minority Report.' Science mythology is UFO sightings, close encounters of the first kind." (Close encounters of the second kind are defined as physical evidence; close encounters of the third kind are alien sightings.)
Lima used a cavalcade of computer-generated digital tricks; there are no puppets or animatronics. But there is a human element. He took a digital photograph of his wife's eye, enlarged it, stretched it out, colored it and used that for the aliens' eyes.
"The iris is still in there," says Lima. "I wanted to show thought, to have these digital characters show emotion."
The grays also can take human form and read minds.
If "Taken" is groundbreaking for its length and visual effects, it also must set some sort of record for script-writing. Les Bohem wrote the entire 20 hours. A former member of the band Sparks, Bohem ("Dante's Peak") emphasizes the human relationships and family interplay.
The ensemble cast includes Catherine Dent, Joel Gretsch, Eric Close, Ryan Hurst, Matt Frewer and Michael Moriarty as the stern colonel who covers up the initial Roswell crash in tonight's episode. Some characters span several nights. Eight-year-old Dakota Fanning (the daughter in "I Am Sam") narrates all 10 episodes and appears in the final four.
Her voice is at once innocent and filled with wisdom.
"It's very much 'To Kill A Mockingbird,' " says Hooper. "It has that sensitivity, that kind of elegance."
As for the phenomenon itself - the long lists of people who claim to have been abducted, poked and prodded by aliens and returned to Earth - Hooper says he has studied it more than half his life. He finds it valid.
"I'm definitely a believer," says Hooper. "There's something out there."
To reach this Plain Dealer reporter:
firstname.lastname@example.com, 216-999-4456
I turned it off.
Would have preferred if they'd just ran with a Monday night Stargate-a-thon.
I was just mentioning, in another forum, that SciFi is pulling a 'MTV': it was cool when it started, then it peaked, and now it just sucks.
That's what happens when your audience outgrows its niche
Otherwise the production was high standard, but I was somewhat disappointed in the initial episode's plot. Still I will give it a chance to do better.
I think Tobe Hooper is cool for saying that he thought that the series was cool, and it was cool of him to share his cool opinion with the cool reporter, who included Tobe's cool statement in the cool article so that all of us cool FReepers could read it and share it with our cool families, cool neighbors, and cool co-workers. Cool, I think. Or maybe not. Who cares?
Still on Saturday 5 am eastern.
i found 'Close Encounters" and "E.T." to be rather boring and suspect these are in the same league...
for alien abduction movies, i can't think anyone can top the movie Fire in the Sky which i found terrifyingly believable and nightmarish...
Home Shopping had a more lively lineup.
Definitely a slow start.
The editing is jarring... and they will "character develop" the audience right to sleep.
It's definately slow, epics don't usually take off running. I'm going to save my judgement until the end.
Best Regards,
"Taken" is a "shameless ripoff" combination of most scifi ET and UFO movies. I found myself thinking "hummm, where did I see THAT little scene before?"..was it Close Encounters...was it Independence Day? How about the Outer Limits?
Spielburg isn't original anymore. Especially when he has to plagerize his own movies.
Of course now the sci-fi channel has both John Edwards and Steven Speilberg -- a double dose.
I thought only running the alien episodes was fabulous.
This whole alien/ human hybrid concept is fascinating. If I'm not mistaken, this same thread is going to run through Taken...and I'm very interested to see where Speilberg takes it.
I thought the sepia tone cinematography was beautiful...when that girl was at the crash site among all the burning debris, where she recovered that unknown alloy...that huge tree in the background, where the alien was hiding, with the smoke all around it, the color was so rich, it was beautiful, I thought. Then again, I sometimes am impressed by the strangest things.
I also found that the male characters are much more handsome than the women...that was odd, I thought.
Best Regards,
Best Regards,
Most probably he'll turn the hybrid into a hunted victim, chased all over the world by the mean old humans. :)
Each episode gets a different director, so there's no use trying to guess what's coming.
Yep. Big Y-A-W-N.
I'm not so sure that the second episode was any better.
They're still setting up the characters. I actually liked the first episode better.
If the next episode doesn't pick up the pace a little bit they will have lost my interest.
After all the mini-series is supposed to cover 5 generations and we're only into the second so far.
Did you catch last night's episode, vikingchick?...hahahahohoh! You're good.
I'm still kind of liking it, though.
Best Regards,
Question: how did the twins die when they were in the spaceship?...it didn't go anywhere...I didn't get that part.
I thought the cinematography was more beautiful on Monday...but I'm a big sucker for sepia tone :-)

Where's the bacon? New York hog inventory decreases
- Updated: January 5, 2013
Pork producers in New York had 66,000 hogs and pigs on hand December 1, 2012, according to King Whetstone, Director of USDA's National Agricultural Statistics Service, New York office. This total was down 27 percent from the 91,000 head on hand a year earlier.
Of the current inventory, 6,000 hogs are for breeding purposes, down 5,000 head from the previous December. The remaining 60,000 hogs and pigs, raised for home use or the slaughter market, decreased by 20,000 head from a year ago.
U.S. inventory of all hogs and pigs on December 1, 2012 was 66.3 million head. This was down slightly from December 1, 2011, and down 2 percent from September 1, 2012. Breeding inventory, at 5.82 million head, was up slightly from last year, and up slightly from the previous quarter. Market hog inventory, at 60.5 million head, was down slightly from last year, and down 2 percent from last quarter.
The September-November 2012 pig crop, at 29.4 million head, was up slightly from 2011. Sows farrowing during this period totaled 2.90 million head, down slightly from 2011. The sows farrowed during this quarter represented 50 percent of the breeding herd. The average pigs saved per litter was a record high 10.15 for the September-November period, compared to 10.02 last year. Pigs saved per litter by size of operation ranged from 7.60 for operations with 1- 99 hogs and pigs to 10.20 for operations with more than 5,000 hogs and pigs.

JOSEPH Verga will be taking over as administrator of Guam Memorial Hospital next Monday, Aug. 20, about six weeks after his original start date of July 1.
The delay was caused by last-minute revisions that were made to the administrator's contract at the end of June. These revisions were not reviewed and approved by the Governor's Office until early July.
One addition to the contract is a provision for Verga's airfare and that of a dependent.
There will also be an increase in his temporary per diem housing allowance from $229 per day to $255 per day. The allowance will cover 50 days instead of the 30 days provided for in the original contract.
The administrator's base salary will remain at $200,000 a year, as stated in the May contract.
"I think Mr. Verga's track record, experience and knowledge speak for themselves," said GMH interim Administrator Ray Vega. "He is very welcome and has the credentials to make things happen at GMH. It's a win-win situation for GMH and the government of Guam.

Charmaine Sheh seeks a boyfriend to travel to Greece with her
Thursday, December 23, 2010
Charmaine Sheh is seriously hardworking 16-17 hours daily and had no complaints. This type of professionalism is greatly favoured by the skincare brand (SHISEIDO), and asked her to shoot an anti-aging product advertisement. In the past few days, Charmaine has been in Hangzhou shooting a series and on the day of the Ad shoot she was asked to arrive to the set at 8am. Not only did Charmaine go without complaint, she wasn't even slightly droopy.
Asked how she controlled her own life? Charmaine said no matter if single or have a family, it is important to have high standards on yourself, to maintain the best state of mind and pursue a wonderful life. When Charmaine first debuted, she was scolded to have "chicken voice" and "don't know how to act". Today. she stands firmly with countless award recognitions on her acting. When asked if she hopes for a breakthrough in 2011? She said: "I hope to portray a character that I have never done before, or maybe try stage plays." As her jobs are lined up until July 2011, Charmaine expressed that she hopes to take a long break and go on a vacation to Greece. Perhaps by that time she'll be able to find someone she admires to go with her to have a romance in Greece together.

This technology?can be a powerful tool for helping people visualize?large amounts of data by presenting the data as a map.??The technology can improve the quality of spatial data, and can help determine where things should be located to accomplish real-world objectives.
GIS provides?"topology rules" to ensure that the?location of something makes sense in relation to?other things.? A house can't be located within an ocean.?? Each salesperson for a particular company should have an exclusive sales territory.??Driveways connect to streets.??And so on.
Microsoft provides a suite of tools for enforcing topology rules using SQL Server Spatial, which has been available since SQL Server 2008.? Much to my surprise, this?technology provides even more power and flexibility in defining topology rules than ESRI's ArcSDE 9.3 product.? And using ESRI's Data Interoperability extension, ESRI products can read and write directly from SQL Server Spatial.
Using SQL Server Spatial and its topology rules, I was able to solve a challenging problem involving the placement of vessel moorings to eliminate vessel collisions.? Vessels?move around their moorings due to tides and winds, and the pattern of movement depends on factors including the length of chains and the length of the vessel, as well as whether the vessel is attached to one or two moorings.?
The first step to solve this problem was to?calculate?the potential swing areas for each vessel based on the current information in the database.? For the geeks out there, I did this using a user-defined function that?returns a geography data type.
The second step to solve this?problem was to?create topology rules that identify and prevent potential collisions between?vessels.? A small overlap in vessel swing areas is?not?a problem, because similar boats will swing in similar directions at the same time - if there are?winds from the North, for example, all the vessels will typically?be found at the southern end of their swing areas.?? But significant overlaps in swing areas?are definitely a problem.? Using SQL Server's spatial functions, we can?determine the percentage overlap between?each set of?swing areas, and can create a topology rule that the moorings cannot be placed if?the overlap?percentage?is too high.? This ability to implement a topology rule based on a quantifiable measurement is very powerful.??For comparison, ESRI's SDE topology rules allow you to prevent overlaps or require overlaps, but they don't allow you to?allow a certain degree?of overlap.
Using SQL Server Spatial, you also have significant flexibility in?handling?data that violate your topology rules.??On the stricter end of the spectrum, you can prevent bad data from being stored in the database at all.? On the looser end of the spectrum, you can allow storage of?the "bad" data and create a query that identifies topology violations.? In the middle of the spectrum, you could warn about topology violations during the update process but?allow overrides.?
In summary, SQL Server Spatial has a powerful arsenal of tools to help validate and optimize the location of objects.? It is definitely worth exploring to see if it might meet your needs.
P.S.? Now that I'm a father myself, I tried cutting my daughter's least favorite foods into the shape of various states.? It hasn't worked at all.? She must be a lot smarter than I was at her age.
