The tenement area covers the outcrop of the Oued Amizour massif, a Miocene intrusive volcanic complex, part of the Atlas mountain chain which stretches along the Mediterranean Sea in NW Africa. The plutonic-volcanic complex comprises granitoids, overlain by two or three volcanic and volcanoclastic series. The magmatic rocks belong to a potassic rich calc-alkaline series with ages varying from 24.4Ma to 12.4Ma.
At Tala Hamza, the volcanics comprise a number of wide units of volcaniclastic and coherent rocks including breccias, lavas and sub-volcanic intrusives of andesitic and dacitic affinity.
The mineralisation occurs as a thick zone (from 40m to 300m) with an overall shallow south dip. It covers an area almost 750m x 750m and is disconformable to the host volcaniclastic series. It is associated with strong hydrothermal alteration characterised by kaolinitisation, silicification, chloritisation, sericitisation and carbonatisation. Several generations of faults bound and offset the mineralisation with at least one set of faults having a spatial association with high lead mineralisation and controlling the overall geometry.
The mineralisation at Tala Hamza shows a number of features of low temperature, epithermal deposits including colloform textures in sphalerite and pyrite, Fe-poor honey-coloured sphalerite and low temperature potassic alteration (adularia).
The mineralisation styles range from massive through submassive, stockworks, breccias and dissemination. The breccias are often associated with replacement and infill vuggy textures. The ore mineralogy is simple and consists of pyrite, sphalerite and galena.

Poll Results
If the GlucoWatch is approved by the FDA, are you interested in using it?
Yes, for my child 70% (840) Yes, for myself 18% (215) Yes, for someone else 3% (45) No, because it's too new 1% (17) No, because it's too expensive 2% (24) No, for other reasons 3% (45) If the GlucoWatch is approved by the FDA, are you interested in using it?
Poll dates: November 7 - 14, 1999
Total Votes: 1,186The GlucoWatch is an important innovation in blood glucose monitoring, providing an easy-to-use, non-invasive way to measure blood sugars. Even more important, the GlucoWatch will alarm when blood sugars are either too low or too high. For the first time, people with diabetes will have a tool to help them identify -- before hand -- when their blood sugars are too low.
All of this will be true, if the FDA approves the GlucoWatch at its meeting on December 6, 1999. From our poll, 91% of you want the GlucoWatch, either for your child, yourself, or someone else. Children with Diabetes will be represented at the FDA meeting, and will present this data to demonstrate how important this product is and why it must be approved.

I don't who liked this more - my 12 year old or my husband! Great fun for a couple of hours - great for birthday parties as well.
I don't who liked this more - my 12 year old or my husband! Great fun for a couple of hours - great for birthday parties as well.
I had my sons party here and it was well worth it. Staff are excellent. It is out doors and open. Lazor tag was fun but paintball was amazing!
Thank you for the positive review! I did pass the kudos on to my staff for an excellent job well done. Go Team Safari! We have more ideas that we are working on for 2014 - so we hope to see you next season Joan Whiteley Safari Ridge Adventure Park More
I went to day with my family. We all had a lot of fun. I can't wait until my boys are old enough to go back and try paintball! My only suggestion would be that when playing Lazer tag the people on each team wear pinnies or something to distinguish who's on what team. My family of 4 was playing... More
Good to hear that your family had fun playing our Outdoor Laser Tag! In past years we used to offer orange vests to one of the teams, the overall response was that the players didn't want to wear them because it made them stand out and it was more difficult to hide so we just stopped suggesting them. I will... More
My 15 year old and his group of 10 enjoyed hours of paintballing. The mud on the field only added to the fun for them, given that it rained the day before, however they were in paintball heaven for hours of great fun. We have been here before and plan on returning. It's not a cheap form of entertainment, however... More
Thank you for having your son's birthday at Safari Ridge! It's difficult to find things to entertain teens and I'm thrilled that we offer such an activity. It's funny about the rain and mud... the parents are concerned and the kids love it!! Joan Whiteley Owner/Manager More
For my sons 8th birthday party we celebrated with Safari Ridge Laser Tag. So much fun! My son said it was "the best day of his life!" Even my younger son, 6, had a blast and was able to handle and work the laser tag guns no problem. Safari Ridge has an amazing outdoor set up that allows the kids... More
Thank you for your rave review! It sounds like you went home with some tired kids.. hopefully! I love seeing the kids running around and getting exercise while having a blast, that's the best part of owning this business! I'm so glad that you took advantage of having the whole party here... I think the option of having a bbq... More
My son and his 12 year old friends learned the hard way that some boys never grow up! His father, grandfather and uncle unleashed a paintball frenzy on the boys. The kids were still talking about the party a couple days later. We booked the private tent and had a great party. Last year we did the laser tag and... More
Yes! I remember that! I think the kids were quite shocked but recall they had a blast trying to get back at the adults - or more accurately "the big kids"! Thank you for playing at Safari Ridge - I'm sure that day will bring back some fun memories at family get togethers. More
The prices are fairly high but paintball can get expensive. The field is really gimmicky and serious airball or bush players may not like the gimmicks but I found it to be a lot of fun. There is something about pushing a button to destroy a base that brings back childhood gaming memories.
I'm glad you had fun playing at Safari Ridge. We try each year to give our fields a new look with themed props and buildings and have designed our fields specifically for Adventure Paintball which appeals to families, recreational players and kids. We haven't, nor tried, to be a competition paintball field like most paintball fields. I do realize that... More
I have been to Safari Ridge twice recently and had great experiences both times. The first was to play paintball for a sport team wind-up with thirty people, teen-aged to middle-aged. Everyone was energized and excitedly comparing 'war wounds' and strategies through the day. We had a tent with the use of a BBQ which gave us a place to... More
Thank you so much for the great review, we really enjoyed hosting your group.. both times!. It was fun chatting with your family and hearing all the excitement from the birthday "kids" to the little one that had us laughing the whole time! We hope to see you again... it was a pleasure for us too. : ) Joan Whiteley... More
Great for family party and have fun. We celebrate my son birthday, and just for one hour. You could choose beetween laser on paintball. It little expensive. but outside and kids love it and have a blast of fun.
Thank you for taking the time to write a review for us. It sounds like the fun and memories everyone had far outweighed the costs and it sure is nice when you can find an activity that the whole family has fun at! Thanks again for choosing Safari Ridge for your son's birthday party! Joan Whiteley Owner/Manager More
Not many choices left in Kelowna area but this is definitely one of the few left that are quite good and located in between Kelowna and West Kelowna, right off the highway.
Thank you for your review. I'm so glad you had a great time! We are continually striving to make our attraction exciting, fun and affordable. Hope to see you again! More

Plymouth striker Nick Chadwick has been given a six-match ban by the Football Association after he was sent off in the 4-0 loss to Port Vale on Saturday.
The 30-year-old, who has scored twice in 24 appearances this season for the struggling Pilgrims, has apologised and been separately disciplined by the club.As well as the automatic three-match ban for his straight red card in the 34th minute, the FA have decided to take retrospective action, under Law 12, regarding an incident in the first minute of the match and have subsequently added a further three matches to Chadwick's suspension.That means the former Everton forward will not be available again until the clash with Northampton on February 23.

Teen dies sledding on closed ski slope
PINKHAM NOTCH - An 18-year-old Massachusetts man died while sledding on Wildcat Mountain while the ski slopes were closed, according to a New Hampshire Fish and Game Department release.
Joseph Murad, 18, of Hanson, Mass., was found dead by a search party after disappearing during a midnight sledding excursion on the slopes of Wildcat Mountain in Pinkham Notch, the release said.
"The ski slopes of Wildcat Mountain were closed during the time that Mr. Murad's party was on the mountain," the release said. "In addition, these trails are not open to sledding."
The release said Murad and two friends hiked to the mountain's summit Thursday night intending to ride sleds to the bottom. Authorities were called about 3:30 a.m. Friday when his friends were not able to find him, the release said.
Murad's body was found about 8 a.m. and it appears as though injuries he suffered during a crash "were major contributing factors in (Murad's) death," the release said.
City suspends rule on odd/even parking
MANCHESTER - The city's odd/even winter parking regulations are being waived from 1 a.m. Sunday through 6 a.m. Wednesday, according to Deputy Public Works Director Tim Clougherty.
That means drivers don't have to worry about the correlation between the day and the address number - odd-numbered side on odd days and even-numbered on even days - until Wednesday morning. After 6 a.m. Wednesday, vehicles must be parked on the odd-numbered side of the street.

In order to implement any strategy to help students on the autism spectrum, we first need to understand the reasons behind some of their challenging behaviors and understand the feelings those behaviors provoke in their caretakers. This session helps caregivers manage their own emotions so they can help manage those of their children or clients.

He also directs social skills training for Millburn Public Schools in New Jersey. He is on the professional advisory board of Autism Today, ASPEN, ANSWER, YAI, the Kelberman Center and several other autism organizations.

Ocean Yachts
Ocean Yachts
Ocean yachts are commonly used for long range travel. These ocean yachts are utilized in marathon type races that occur over the distance of a broad span of ocean or around the world. Most actively ocean luxury yachts are used to transport cargo from one country to another. These cargo ocean yachts are normally made with steel hulls to support the weight of the cargo and protect the ship from harsh ocean waters. These commercial vessels usually have twin diesels for a power source and can travel around 15 knots. The ocean luxury yachts will have cranes and specific equipment needed to load and unload cargo in an efficient manner. The average size of an ocean yacht is between 250 and 500 feet, and they can house several crew members in common quarters.
Ocean Yachts
The ocean yachts have fully functional galleys with the capabilities to cook for large numbers of people for an extended period. The ocean yachts are designed with cargo hauling and long haul commercial transport in mind. Ocean yachts generally offer storage space for massive amounts of goods to make the transport less expensive for each item. Amenities are sparse due to the nature of the ocean yacht 's primary function. Used ocean yacht models are available for around $500,000, while newer models run well over $6,800,000. Azimut and Southern Ocean are two popular builders of the ocean yacht.

December's Must See Movies

1. The Unknown Soldier (1955)
December's first important must see film is The Unknown Soldier. It's a Finnish war flick about the Continuation War. It is awesome, hilarious, touching and just about the most Finnish movie you can ever watch. It lasts for about 3 hours but it's so worth it. For 11 years now, this movie has been shown every year on 6th of December, which is Finland's Independence Day. I've watched it every year for three years, and it will always be my biggest must see of December.

1985 Mongoose Californian
Another Ebay special!
Got this frame and forks off ebay. Got in trouble from the missus coz she said I paid too much. I thought the price was fair.
Anyway, always wanted a loop tail 'goose. Now I got one. Have put it together with some spare parts that I had lying around from other builds (Haro 7 bars, Anlun stem, Sugino crank, Tioga Comp III's).
Finally got this all together after some time now. Still got to get a decal set for it. Had planned on doing it a while back but been spending money on other things.
Nice to ride, kinda reminds me of the old SuperLA.
Thanks for looking.

Outdoor seating allows for a good view of the lake and adjacent beach area. Very busy place. My fish entrée was mediocre but my mates said their food was very good. Can be noisy. Lots of parking because they need it. Pricey!!

The entrance to Gar Wood's gives a clue to the wonderful evening you are about to experience. Then the view from the dining room (whether inside in the winter or on the deck in the summer) is a spectacular view of Lake Tahoe and its surrounding mountains. If you are lucky enough to at or near a full moon, it... More
8 of us came here for lunch, the food was really good and the views were just gorgeous. The place is very busy so we were delighted to get a table.
What a place! We pulled up in a friend's boat and were ferried to the dock and had a table waiting for us! Looking right out over the water, we enjoyed some great food, some incredible drinks that were passed around the table and most importantly, great friends! If in the area, stop by and check this place out! Can't... More
We sat down to a beautiful sunset view of Lake Tahoe. Our waiter Wesley was excellent in informing us of the items on the menu. The service was very good and food came out in a timely manner. All of the dinners were cooked to perfection. Looking forward to returning to a relaxings dining experience.
Love to go to the outdoor bar seating, have a signature Wet Woody, a few appetizers, and enjoy the view
Varied menus with both seafood and non-seafood items. The quality was good. The service was a little slow. Nice views of the lake. If you want a nice steak or good pasta, this is the place. A little more expensive than other restaurants in the area, but it's also a step up, but still casual in keeping with the vacation... More
We were here for a wedding....and the food was SUPER! The employees were nice and very accommodating. I'd go back!
We had lunch here and arrived around 11:45 so we could get an outdoor table over looking the lake. It was worth it, because we had a perfect view of the beautiful blue lake and high mountains. The tables were all filled by noon, so it was good to arrive a little early. The server was very attentive. My husband... More
Expensive but fun, and the view from the porch was wonderful. We brought in the fish we caught in the morning and made a reservation for that evening. When we came in our fish was prepared for us. Delicious!

Dress Rehearsal
By David Hill
The Carroll County football team hosted Fort Knox in a scrimmage game Friday at Panther Field in Carrollton in preparation for its Aug. 17 opener at home against Pendleton County. Carroll County's Blake Newby (50, above), who scored one of the Panthers' touchdowns, gets a block as he picks up a gain. Fort Knox quarterback Deion Anderson is sacked in the open field by Carroll County's Keifer McIntyre (below). Carroll County had outscored the Eagles 20-0 after three quarters. The Panthers' Tyshaun Embs also had a running TD and caught a TD pass from quarterback John Michael Adams. (Staff photos by David Hill)

EU must blacklist Hezbollah, says Netanyahu
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday urged the European Union to place the Lebanese Shiite movement Hezbollah on its list of "terrorist" organisations.
Netanyahu made the request during talks with Italian Foreign Minister Giulio Terzi on the disputed nuclear programme, Hezbollah leading regional ally.
"We are facing great challenges; perhaps the greatest challenge that the international community is facing is Iran's quest for nuclear weapons," the prime minister said, according to a statement issued by his office.
"I think that the international community must set a clear red line for Iran that it knows that it cannot go beyond in its pursuit of nuclear weapons, and I think that as hard as it is, the economic sanctions have to be intensified.
"We appreciate the efforts that you have made and that others in Europe are making. There is one other effort that I think Europe could make to advance the cause of security and peace, and that is to declare Iran's proxy, Hezbollah, a terrorist organisation," he said.
"It is exactly that. It's the world's leading terror organisation, and Europe could contribute much by declaring it for what it is."
In July, the European Union turned down a request by Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman to blacklist Hezbollah as a terror group after a deadly bombing in Bulgaria.
"There is no consensus for putting Hezbollah on the list of terrorist organisations," said Cypriot Foreign Minister Erato Kozakou-Marcoullis, whose country currently holds the rotating EU presidency.
Kozakou-Marcoullis said Hezbollah was an organisation comprising a party as well as an armed wing and was "active in Lebanese politics" -- with representatives in the government and in parliament.
Israel blames Iran and Hezbollah for the July 18 suicide attack at the Black Sea airport of Burgas in which five Israelis and their Bulgarian driver died.
It also says that Iran and Hezbollah plotted to carry out more than 20 attacks against Israeli and Jewish targets over the past two years.
Iran and Hezbollah have denied the accusations.
Israel and much of the West believes Iran's nuclear activities mask a weapons programme, a charge Tehran denies.
Israel says a nuclear Iran would pose an existential threat to the Jewish state and has consistently warned it that all options remain on the table, including a military strike on Tehran's nuclear installations.
On Wednesday the Israeli prime minister again urged the international community to "draw a clear, red line on Iran" and reinforce economic sanctions against Tehran over its nuclear programme.

Where to begin with learning country...
Hi guys,
I want to begin to learn country music. Particularly the lead aspect of country playing but I have little experience or skill with improvising/soloing at all. Can anyone point me to some links of interest? I've gathered some links from other threads but I would really like a beginners approach, if there is such a thing on the internet. I'm not in a position right now which allows me to take lessons so I'm left with the internet as none of my friends are interested in country playing. Your help is much appreciated, Jason. |

Thanks for your reply, I've read lots of great things about your lessons in other threads. I bought a Tele earlier last year, initally because everyone plays a Strat. I soon found that the Tele is very fitting of my personality: the simpler things are, the better. I started to listen to more country after I got it and like I say, most of my friends are rockers. That's not a bad thing by any means but I find Twangin' much more interesting. I've been playing since high school on and off, I guess that amounts to probably 3 years but I know that I'm not practicing enough and that I'm not practicing properly. Can you reccomend a sort of practice routine? For example, say in an hour: I were to spend 10 minutes stretching out my fingers, 10 minutes chording, 10 minutes of scales, 15 minutes learning new music and 15 minutes "playing" with stuff I already know. I've acquainted myself with the Minor Pentatonic, I know all the boxes/positions but I lack the skill/creativity to use it effectively. The major scale is the better scale for country music isn't it? Thanks much, Jason. |

Yes, the major scale is used a lot in Country or around it anyway, Blues is also used in Country a lot. yes practice scales, a good scale to practice to get your fingers in shape and build up your speed is the 3 note per string scale, just remember get the notes clean first then work on the speed, speed is nothing unless its clean. sounds like you have a good practice schedule down there.

I would say the new scales for you to learn are the major pentatonic scales, and then add a few more notes to them to round out the major scale and the dominant scale (aka mixolydian). These, along with some blues scale are the most commonly used.
The major pentatonics have the same pattern as minor pentatonic, just with a different root note, ie. the A minor pentatonic at the fifth fret is the same as C major pentatonic, the C note falling under the fourth finger on the E strings. Play the C major pentatonic scale over C major or 7th chords, F major pentatonic over F major or 7th chords etc. You can also use dominant scales the same. That is kind of the essence of the scales. |

In light of where you're starting from, I would pick a simple a few simple country songs that you can learn inside out.
Then dissect the structure it a bit and figure out why it works the way it does. Also, if you are not accustomed to play with a pick and your fingers on your right hand (hybrid picking), that's the first place to start. It's tough to have a simple recipe book for country. Shawn

Thanks everyone for posting!
I've learned a few things I need to start practicing, I guess it's time to get down to it. Shawn, can you reccomend a few songs? I'm worried about tackling hybrid picking but I know it is essential to the country sound. I'm excited and nervous at the same time (to start working at it) haha. Thanks again for the replies! :D |

It has the quintessential elements of country picking - rythm chicken' pickin', double stops, single note runs, etc. The rythm is a great learning tool for beginners to pick up the hybrid picking, since you can't really do it any other way - it sort of forces you to do it hybrid. The solos, especially the first, are very tackle-able for a beginner and can be figured out pretty easily. I wonder if Brent Mason knows how many times his picking on that song is recommended as a learning tool. LOL Good luck, and have some fun! Cheers, Shawn

On game days on the North Side, we proudly don our bright primary blue uniforms, looking like some sort of drunken smurf army. The fat guys wear the loud pennant and logo shirts. Your average "dude" is wearing an Aramis Ramirez jersey.
Here's the story of how a fan pressured to throw an opponent's home run ball back on the field got a cool souvenir from the Cubs second baseman.
What's a divorced Cubs fan with a commemorative brick commemorating a rotten relationship to do? Can the brick be switched out? Can Melanie's name be sandblasted away and replaced with another name? I decided to help out my old friend.
The Cubs have to decide who is going to be a part of their plans for 2014. These are the players who should stick around and those that need to go.
What if Jack Brickhouse, Harry Caray, and Ron Santo could all be the Cubs new radio announcer? Artificial Intelligence and technology can lead the way in bringing Chicago's legendary broadcasters back to life.
Searching for that perfect gift for the Cubs fan in your life? I've made your holiday shopping a little easier this year by weeding out the Cubs merchandise that you should absolutely NOT buy.
Cubs fans have high hopes for Kris Bryant. Should he be rushed through the system?
The Cubs place their faith in Rick Renteria. Only time will tell if that faith is rewarded.
The Cubs have a new manager. Will that make any difference?
Should the Cubs be interested in the former Brewers outfielder/first baseman?
Hear me out, at least, before you jump all over me for this article.
Cubs fans have spent an eternity waiting to win the World Series, but where do Cubs fans go who have already passed on? "Beyond the Vines" Cubs' Fan Burial Wall. That's where.
Of the players who finished the 2013 season with the Cubs, four are free agents. Which, if any, should they bring back?
It's been 68 years since the Cubs last played in a World Series. There's still one man alive who was a part of that National League championship team.
Great pitching, lucky breaks, and clubhouse brawls brought the Chicago Cubs their (clears throat) most recent World's Championship in 1908. What did this championship team have that the Cubs currently don't? Let's explore.
Should the Cubs go after the Cleveland lefthander, soon to be a free agent?
What player who is a free-agent-to-be could be an under-the-radar pickup for the Cubs? Here's one idea.
With new manager season in full swing, here's the basic question: What makes a great manager?
It's not worth hating Cardinals fans because they're corny and bland or that they live in a mediocre city. Hate them because the Cardinals win so damn much, and they brag about it in a whiny, "woe is me" fashion, wrapped into a loaf of white bread.
You don't want it. I don't want it. It's not going to happen. But what if Ozzie Guillen were the Cubs' manager in 2014?
Theo Epstein says he wants the Cubs' managerial opening filled by the general managers' meetings, which are about four weeks away.
Fasten your seat belt. This one isn't going to be much fun.
There's something... different about the Wrigley Field foul poles. Can you tell what it is?
The headline is self-explanatory. The name you'll see revealed as the guy I want might surprise you.
Now that Joe Girardi has crossed himself off the Cubs' managerial search list, who's the next choice? Or more importantly, what qualities should the next guy have?
The Cubs have been named as a possible destination for Rays ace David Price. Would a trade be in the Cubs' best interest?

Perceiving an overly zealous culture of copyright protection, a group of law and technology scholars are setting up Creative Commons, a nonprofit company that will develop ways for artists, writers and others to easily designate their work as freely shareable.
Creative Commons, which is to be officially announced this week at a technology conference in Santa Clara, Calif., has nearly a million dollars in start-up money. The firm's founders argue that the expansion of legal protection for intellectual property, like a 1998 law extending the term of copyright by 20 years, could inhibit creativity and innovation. But the main focus of Creative Commons will be on clearly identifying the material that is meant to be shared. The idea is that making it easier to place material in the public domain will in itself encourage more people to do so.
The firm's first project is to design a set of licenses stating the terms under which a given work can be copied and used by others. Musicians who want to build an audience, for instance, might permit people to copy songs for noncommercial use. Graphic designers might allow unlimited copying of certain work as long as it is credited.

A different set-up for our Hypergrid business book
Last week I discussed with my colleague Maria Korolov (you can see her here in action) the set-up of our upcoming book on what we now call "business applications for immersive worlds". At the start of this year we intended to publish a book on business applications for the hypergrid, Opensim, but we have diverted from that idea.
Confused by the jargon? Let me explain shortly what this book is going to be about.
Once upon a time there was Second Life, you might have heard of that. A virtual world that changed the life of – say – up to a million people who learned to to dress up an avatar, and joined from their computer this new virtual world. For a few years, it was a huge success. Universities, companies, media organization flocked into this much hyped virtual reality.
But not all was well in Second Life. Designers and programmers felt locked up in the closed garden of Second Life, educators thought prices were going up too beyond their budgets and businesses did not think Second Life met their purposes. So, almost three years ago, the hypergrid emerged as an open-source alternative. Or OpenSim, metaverse, the alternative world is known under a few names.
At the same time, you saw the new digital generation was getting very familiar with immersive worlds, mainly through gaming. The World of Warcraft was one of the major forces, but there is nowadays hardly a game which does play in a virtual life. A virtual life-style is taking over our lives, and our initial plan was to get ready for business applications in the hypergrid.
The hypergrid is an open-source competitor of Second Life. And we saw huge similarities between Second Life and what happened with AOL, the original walled garden of the internet, when free browsers took off in the 1990s. That facilitated the real emergence of a vibrant internet. And we hoped, end of 2010, the hypergrid would produce Netscape and IE-like solutions for the immersive worlds.
But the hypergrid is lagging: the equivalent of a free browser is still as far away as one year ago. Connecting between regions, a key promise, is still problematic, and the volunteer force behind many regions find it hard to catch up with the many upgrades. And there is still no solution to communicate by voice, like you can do in other platforms. Just to mention a few problems. The hypergrid is developing very slow, despite the efforts a lot of people are putting into this platform.
So, while Second Life is clearly losing some of its momentum, it is still the largest force in immersive worlds, and competition in the business arena comes mostly from a fast growing number of other competitors behind their own walled garden. So, we decided to follow this trend for our upcoming book, where the hypergrid is part of an exciting new development, with many opportunities for business users.
Later more, on how we are going to fill in this new direction

It amazes me how certain types of people could possibly believe that paying a worker more can end it for a business.
I know there's the "MATH" but what has this country come to when certain types see it as a SIN to pay a worker a healthy wage?
If you can't "afford" to pay your employers a good wage, especially considering inflation, then you have no BUSINESS starting your own BUSINESS. Some bosses (term used loosely) sure have forgotten what it was like to be the worker.
The same goes for those "poor, little" CEOs and those "horrible, dreaded" tax hikes. If a CEO or Company president/owner can't handle a tax hike, then he/she has NO business running a company in the first place.
Look at it this way. I don't see any of your Trumps, Zuckerbergs, or Papa John Schnatters holding up any "homeless" signs.
It amazes me how someone who has never been in the business world has the gall to lecture those of is who are. I have created eight jobs plus my own. How many have you created? The revenue we take in is from the public. The publoc only has so much money to spend. When they cannot afford our services we are out of bisiness. Why do we not resuce our prices? Praytell tell me how? Increased wages,increased health insurance oncreased taxes? Where is a business supose to get this money?

COLUMN: Jones has chance to solidify legacy at OU against Texas A&M at Cotton Bowl
While fans and sports talk show hosts spent the days following the BCS selection debacle arguing about better-qualified teams and questionable rules, No. 11 Oklahoma's bid to the Cotton Bowl set up a better-suited finale that will allow this year's senior class to atone for the previous disaster that occurred inside the familiar, flashy walls of Cowboys Stadium.
The hype surrounding the 2009 season opener was as thick as the line of cars that flooded Interstate 35 to see the game in football's newly-opened, holy grail of arenas.
Former quarterback Sam Bradford — along with a slue of offensive playmakers like former tight end Jermaine Gresham and running backs Chris Brown and DeMarco Murray — returned for his then-junior stint after winning the Heisman and leading the Sooners to the national title game just a few months before the September matchup against BYU. Although Gresham was not in the starting rotation due to an injury, OU remained steady as a repeat title contender.
OU entered the game as the overwhelming 22-point favorite but soon would find itself disheveled and unraveled after BYU's Coleby Clawson smashed Bradford's shoulder into the turf, sidelining the starter for the rest of the game.
In sprinted a quarterback of whom few had heard, and even fewer felt comfortable calling the team's new starter: current senior quarterback Landry Jones.
Jones unfortunately flopped on his first appearance, finishing 6-of-12 for a 51 measly yards. He kept OU in the game until BYU tacked on a touchdown with a little more than three minutes left in the fourth quarter.
In a matter of minutes, the Sooners watched their aspirations to return to college football's pinnacle stage turn to fighting to keep the team's head above .500 for the rest of the year with a guy they thought would have additional years to learn the playbook and take over once Bradford's legacy was finished.
As if the former Heisman winner's shadow wasn't hard enough to replace, Jones also had to ride the momentum of 2009's snake-bit season with an inexperienced offensive line that finished with an 8-5 record and left OU on a high from which it still hasn't recovered.
But if the Sooners can't play for a title, this year's Cotton Bowl has all the right ingredients to produce another hype-laden matchup that gives Jones an opportunity to solidify his legacy in style.
Jones will make his fourth-consecutive bowl game start looking for his fourth-consecutive bowl win — a stage Bradford never was destined to confront. If he succeeds, the Artesia, N.M., native will have tied a record that hasn't been rewritten since 1981 — the last time OU won four straight bowl games.
But Jones will have to do it in a game that may be the third-best bowl game this year behind the title game and the Fiesta Bowl featuring Kansas State and Oregon.
This year's opponent, former-Big 12 foe Texas A&M, also touts its own dose of publicity: The flashy panache of Johnny Manziel, or 'Johnny Football,' who, as one of the three Heisman finalists, could very well be getting an elongated introduction before the kickoff. The No. 9 Aggies were the only team to defeat No. 2 Alabama this season — nearly knocking the Tide out of a spot in the BCS National Championship Game — and also will bring their new conference battle cry with them to the stadium.
But, with 16,317 yards, 122 touchdowns and 39 wins since his first performance, expect Jones to come out with a lot more confidence and several more passing attempts than 2009 Landry attempted on the same field before the dust settles. OU fans may end up screaming "B-C-S" throughout the month prior to matchup, but Jones and Co. will be ready to silence any critics who say the Sooners can't hang with a team from the SEC on Jan. 4.

Take Stock of What's Important
I've been getting a lot of e-mails asking where I've been for the last several months. It's a long story. Suffice it to say, after I graduated I got a lot of interest in the thesis paper I wrote last year. For awhile, the paper even led to a great consulting gig through the summer (which helped pay off my tuition–ack!). However, good things come to an end, so I started, once again, back on the job search track.
That part hasn't been roses.
In this economy, job opportunities are tough to find. When I did find some, I considered myself lucky if I got picked up enough to start down the interview process. Unfortunately, either the positions went to someone else, got scrapped altogether, or in one case, months have gone by and the hiring manager "can't make up his mind".
If you're in the job market right now, all of the above might sound familiar. It's frustrating for sure, but you can't let it get you down. One thing going back to school in mid-life taught me is that life is full of rich possibilities. You sort of forget that after living so many years with bills and routines and same old-same old.
So if you feel you're stuck in a rut and have forgotten about the promise life has in store for you, maybe it's time to sit down and re-evaluate the goals you have for yourself. From there (as any project manager knows), it's a simple matter to develop a plan.
Here's mine:
I'm going to keep going with school, pursuing a Master's degree in Organizational Behaviour. I plan to do some serious research in the field that will make a difference in the way we work. I've met someone and I want to get married and build a fabulous life for ourselves. And while I'm doing all those things, I want to get back into a career so that I can pay for all of the above!
Life is rich, but it's also short. I refuse to be distracted from it by a futile job search.
Once you're back in touch with your objectives, all it takes is a little creativity to come up with a solution. What's mine you ask? You'll just have to come back tomorrow. The answer may make your jaw drop.
I'm Geoff Crane. After 22 years in the trenches of a lot of tough projects, I decided to change direction a little bit and focus on sparking ideas in the vibrant field of project management.
If you're a project manager, or even if you're one voice in the project choir, you are in a position to be truly remarkable. Without exaggerating, you have within you the capacity to change the world, just because of who and where you are!
How do you access that part of yourself? Please get my free project leadership advice and free ebook "Nine Destructive Behaviours" and join my rapidly growing community!

We took our 8 yo to see the Fresh Beat Band last year and she had the time of her life. We paid extra for the VIP meet-and-greet and it was totally worth it. Our younger daughter has been begging to go, and now that she's older I think we're going to take her, too, this year.

Click here to purchase tickets for both shows http://www.axs.com/series/176/the-fresh-beat-band-tickets?skin=verizontheatre. Our seats were really close last time, too. But there wasn't a bad seat in the house, I don't think.
The Fresh Beat Band Live in Concert Tour Presented By Nickelodeon features Kiki Marina and Twist and Shout performing The Fresh Beat Band hits from seasons one, two and three of the Nickelodeon live-action music series that teaches preschoolers about music appreciation. Songs performed include "Here We Go, "A Friend Like You," "Bananas" and "Just Like A Rockstar," among others.

Felty syndrome is a rare disorder that involves rheumatoid arthritis, a swollen spleen, decreased white blood cell count, and repeated infections.
The cause of Felty syndrome is unknown. It is more common in people who have had rheumatoid arthritis for a long time. People with this syndrome are at risk of infection because they have a low white blood cell count.
A physical examination will show:
A complete blood count ( CBC) may show decreased number of white blood cells called neutrophils.
An abdominal ultrasound may confirm a swollen spleen.
Persons with this syndrome are usually already receiving treatment for rheumatoid arthritis. They may need other medicines to suppress their immune system.
Some people benefit from removal of the spleen (splenectomy).
Rheumatoid arthritis is likely to get worse.
You may have infections that keep returning.
Call for an appointment with your health care provider if you develop symptoms of this disorder.
There is no known prevention.

Happy 71st Birthday, Bob Dylan: Things Have Changed (Maybe A Little)
Happy 71st to Rock Turtleneck's guiding light and blinding genius Bob Dylan.
Dylan has been making records for over 50 years and is still getting it done. One of his best songs of his so-called "late" period (which began around TIme Out of Mind in 1997) is 2000's "Things Have Changed," recorded for the soundtrack of the excellent Michael Douglas film Wonder Boys.
"Things Have Changed" nods slyly to his famous anthem "The Times They Are A-Changin" and perfectly caputres the film's theme of writer's block, middle age and the loss of passion. "I used to care, but things have changed," he sings.
The tune rides on a sweet acoustic groove courtesy of one of Bob's best-ever bands featuring Larry Campbell and Charlie Sexton on guitars, Tony Garnier on bass and David Kemper on drums.
Lyrically, Dylanesque epigrams abound. Here are three favorites:
Lots of water under the bridge, lots of other stuff too.
Don't get up gentlemen, I'm only passing through.
All the truth in the world adds up to one big lie.
Feel like fallin' in love with the first woman I meet,
puttin' her in a wheelbarrow and wheelin; her down the street.
"Things Have Changed" won Bob an Academy Award for Best Song. Dylan is a well-known cinephile, and he seems genuinely thrilled to win in this clip from the 2000 Oscars.
Things have not changed all that much for our hero Dylan. He used to care, and he still does. He is still plenty inspired and young at heart. He just wrapped up a tour of South America and supposedly has a new album in the can and coming out soon. When it comes out, I'm going to put it in a wheelbarrow and wheel it down the street.
Cheers, Bob. Happy Birthday.
Buy "Things Have Changed" on iTunes here.

Nuevo León Review
Fill up on the exotic (tripe soup) or the familiar (tacos) at this bustling, family-run restaurant in the heart of Pilsen, Chicago's Mexican neighborhood. Big tables are often filled with large groups, lending a fiesta feel to the scene. Fans love the authentic food, including chilaquiles (tortillas with salsa and scrambled eggs) for breakfast and dinners of shrimp fajitas, chiles rellenos, and barbacoa (braised beef served with refried beans). Brush up your Spanglish; not all servers are fluent in English, though all are welcoming to newcomers. To wash it all down, order a tall glass of horchata, a milky, cinnamon-flecked rice beverage, or bring a couple of beers; Nuevo León is BYOB.
