AT&T Mobile Device Management: Control Multi-Device Chaos
At one time, corporate-owned mobile devices were the norm. Supplied by your IT department, consistent form factors and operating systems (OSs) made mobile device management easier. Today, employee-owned devices are commonplace in the mobile workplace, and your IT staff may have little knowledge about these personal devices that access and store your sensitive data.
With greater visibility into both corporate- and employee-liable tablets, laptops, phones and other smart devices, AT&T mobile device management (MDM) solutions can help you take control of your multi-device environment and burgeoning telecom budget.
Improve visibility into diverse mobile assets
You can't manage what you can't see. AT&T MDM solutions provide you with visibility into each device accessing your corporate applications and content. With a consolidated view across a range of carriers, form factors and platforms, you can:

After the holidays, many people decide to buy a membership to a nearby gym and quickly find themselves two months later already tired of the routine.
Local fitness experts are giving tips about how to make it a habit during these cold months, and one of the ways is by getting together with people who can help you towards your goals.
Steve Slama, co-owner of Wausau Crossfit at the Wausau Box said, "I think community is everything, whether its working out, getting things done, or changing things. Community makes a difference."
Whether you like to work out alone, or in a group, just getting there is the main issue. Trainers insist that if you start small and work your way up, its more likely you'll make it part of your routine rather than occasional trip.

ENSO Quick Look Summary of ENSO Model Forecasts15 December 2010Note on interpreting model forecastsThe following graph and table show forecasts made by dynamical and statistical models for SST in the Nino 3.4 region for nine overlapping 3-month periods. Note that the expected skills of the models, based on historical performance, are not equal to one another. The skills also generally decrease as the lead time increases. Thirdly, forecasts made at some times of the year generally have higher skill than forecasts made at other times of the year--namely, they are better when made between June and December than when they are made between February and May. Differences among the forecasts of the models reflect both differences in model design, and actual uncertainty in the forecast of the possible future SST scenario. Table 1. Forecast SST Anomalies (deg C) in the Nino 3.4 Region
Discussion of current forecastsOne hundred percent of the set of dynamical and statistical model predictions issued during late November and early December 2010 indicate at least moderate, and possibly strong, La Nina conditions during the December-February 2010/11 season currently in progress. Through the January-March 2011 season the probabilities for La Nina remain at least 94%. At the time of preparing this, the SST observations in the NINO3.4 region indicate moderate to strong La Nina conditions, with an area-averaged weekly anomaly of -1.5 C in the most recent week. Current predictions and observations indicate probabilities of 94%, 85% and 64% for maintaining La Nina conditions during the January-March, February-April and March-May 2011 periods, respectively, dropping to 64% for April-June, and below 50% thereafter. Probabilities for El Nino are negligible in the very short-term, rising to 6% by March-May 2011. Summary of forecasts issued over last 22 monthsThe following plots show the model forecasts issued not only from the current month (as in the plot above), but also from the 21 months previous to this month. The observations are also shown up to the most recently completed 3-month period. The plots allow comparison of plumes from the previous start times, or examination of the forecast behavior of a given model over time. The first plot shows forecasts for dynamical models, the second for statistical models, and the third for all models. For less difficult readability, forecasts are shown to a maximum of only the first five lead times. Below the third plot, we provide a mechanism for highlighting the forecasts of one model at a time against a background of more lightly colored lines for all other models. Individual Model View over last 22 monthsView individual models here. Additional information on ModelsNotes on the dataOnly models producing forecasts on a monthly basis are included. This means that some models whose forecasts appear in the Experimental Long-Lead Forecast Bulletin (produced by COLA) do not appear in the table. The SST anomaly forecasts are for the 3-month periods shown, and are for the Nino 3.4 region (120-170W, 5N-5S). Often, the anomalies are provided directly in a graph or a table by the respective forecasting centers for the Nino 3.4 region. In some cases, however, they are given for 1-month periods, for 3-month periods that skip some of the periods in the above table, and/or only for a region (or regions) other than Nino 3.4. In these cases, the following means are used to obtain the needed anomalies for the table:
The anomalies shown are those with respect to the base period used to define the normals, which vary among the groups producing model forecasts. They have not been adjusted to anomalies with respect to a common base period. Discrepancies among the climatological SST resulting from differing base periods may be as high as a quarter of a degree C in the worst cases. Forecasters are encouraged to use the standard 1971-2000 period as the base period, or a period not very different from it. |

I just wanted to leave this, it's sad to see how the people you grow close with start to forget about the conversations and the jokes, and turn on you when something negative and popular goes around about you on this website. So, to everyone I got close with, and to those same people that turned on me, you will always be more fake than I ever was, and more pathetic and more sad of a person than me.
Have a nice day.

Chemistry Sponsored by
Water solubility, also referred to as Sw, is a measure of the ability of a given substance to dissolve into a given solvent. The material being dissolved is referred to as the solute. Solubility is a measure of the maximum amount of solute that can be clearly dissolved into a solvent at a given temperature and pressure.
The polarity of the solute and how it is matched to the solvent is one key factor in determining solubility. Commonly it is said that "likes dissolve likes." Polar materials dissolve in polar solvents, nonpolar in nonpolar solvents. The solubility can be expressed in percent by weight at a specific temperature.
Some solvents and solutes show little temperature dependence, such as NaCl, which has a solubility in water of 26.3% by weight at 25oC, and 27.7% by weight at 100oC. Still, others like glucose show more temperature dependence--such as glucose, which has a solubility of 47.6% by weight at 25oC and 84% by weight at 100oC. Some materials are infinitely soluble, like water and ethanol; and still others have vanishing small solubility like silver chloride in water. There really is no completely insoluble material since that would require zero dissolution.
Partition coefficient, unlike solubility, measures the differential ability of a solute to dissolve in two insoluble phases. Most commonly the partition coefficient is measured in octanol and water--the so-called KOW. Almost all molecules will dissolve at least marginally in both phases. The use of a separatory funnel with diethyl ether and water is a very well-known example of using partition coefficient to purify an organic compound.

Take a ride back in time in a covered, horse-drawn wagon. Be our guest for a wagon ride in an 1800's era replica of a Conestoga wagon. Pulled by a team of one-ton draft horses, you can sit back and enjoy the picturesque Wisconsin woods from the comfort of the wagon. Listen to the birds and catch a glimpse of the end of Lost Canyon on this scenic jaunt.
Wagon ride dates and hours can be found on the Wilderness Express schedule, available at the front desk. Weather conditions do impact availability.
Rides last between 15 and 20 minutes and start at Glacier Canyon Lodge, just under the skywalk. Our wagon holds 10-16 people, depending on number of children. Feel free to ask the driver questions about the horses, or anything else you might see. There is not an extra charge for this fun adventure and gratuities are at your own discretion if you enjoy your ride.
A little more about the wagon: The covered wagon is an icon of the American Old West. Our wagon is a replica of a Conestoga Wagon, also known as a Prairie schooner. They were best known for their use in migration of settlers westward across our country. One covered wagon generally represented five people. A well-to-do family might have two or three wagons, or a group of single men traveling together might share a wagon. While crossing the plains, emigrants banded together to form wagon trains for mutual assistance and occasionally defense.
Some wagons were larger and required teams of six horses or oxen, even on a good road. The wagons were usually very uncomfortable to ride in. They didn't have smooth roads to travel on and there weren't shocks to absorb the bumps. Lots of times, people chose to walk alongside their wagons, rather than have to ride in them. (Don't worry, our wagon has modern conveniences like springs to make your ride much more comfortable!)
The term "Prairie Schooner" is a fanciful name for the covered wagon; the white canvas covers of the wagons crossing the prairies reminded some writers of the sails of a ship at sea.

The Turning Stone Resort and Casino already offers some of the best golfing facilities in Central New York, but now it's the place to go if you want to take your putting game to a whole new level. Anybody who watches the Golf Channel has more then likely heard of the AimPoint Green Reading Series, an unprecedented system that teaches golfers of all levels to aim and putt with amazing accuracy. Turning Stone is now one of only three sites in the state of New York with an AimPoint Green Reading Program. The Clinics promise to "take the guesswork out of putting" by teaching students to "discover the most effective and reliable ways to determine the direction and precise amount of break for any putt."
"The success we are having with the AimPoint program has been unbelievable," said Marty Nowicki, a Turning Stone PGA professional and certified AimPoint instructor. "People make putts from everywhere and can read every putt on the green."
The CNYCentral Sportsteam was able to get a taste for the course at the Shenendoah Course under the direction of Nowicki. The very clinic instruction included....
• How to accurately identify slope
• How slope direction and grade affect break
• How the golfer's position on the slope influences break and speed
• How to identify your position on the slope
• How to determine precise break amounts based on position
• How to handle changing or multiple slopes
• How position relates to speed control
• How to determine optimum approach shot strategies
**Click on the video link to watch an interview with Nowicki, and to see him transform John Evenson and Niko Tamurian into near expert putters.**
Clinics are to be held the first three Saturdays of May (May 5, 12 and 19) from 9 a.m. to noon. Each clinic is $200 per person. Private and small group lessons can be scheduled in advance on other days, with a minimum of three students required. To register for an AimPoint clinic at Turning Stone Resort, or to inquire about custom lessons, call (315) 382-3662 or email email@example.com.

Bowling for Rhinos
Thanks to tremendous community support, last year's Bowling For Rhinos (BFR) was the most successful on record, and the Los Angeles chapter of the American Association of Zoo Keepers (AAZK) raised more than $35,000 for the cause. And the cause is more important than ever with poaching at historic highs.
Since it began in 1990, BFR has generated more than $4 million in direct support to control poaching and protect ecosystems that support rhinos and the species that share their habitat.
This year AAZK-L.A. hopes to even raise more funds with a night of bowling at Jewel City Bowl in Glendale. Festivities include a silent auction, opportunity drawings, food, costumes—and of course bowling. Learn how to get involved by contacting Mike Bona (firstname.lastname@example.com) or leaving a message with your name and phone number at (323) 644-6004.
May 11 (Saturday)
While zoos have long been considered to be places of both education and entertainment, their role as conservation organizations has become more prominent as natural habitats are being destroyed globally. Zoos can not only provide what may be the lone safe haven for many endangered species, but also by working with other zoos, they can help create important genetic reservoirs to fight against extinction for certain select species.
Today's animal keeper is both equipped and passionate about the role he or she plays in maintaining the physical and psychological wellbeing of the animals in their care. The physical wellbeing of the animals is met by providing clean environments for the animals to live in and by diligently monitoring their health and behavior. An equally important aspect of an animal keeper's job is maintaining the psychological wellbeing of these same animals by ensuring that the animals are mentally stimulated. This critical task is accomplished in a number of ways and is limited only by a keeper's imagination.
Daily, keepers take the time to scatter and hide food around an animal's exhibit. They can also put food in puzzle feeders that will challenge and occupy an animals' time as it tries to get the desired food item out of the device. Keepers can also engage in activities like spreading another animals' scent around an exhibit to stimulate a carnivore's hunting instincts, or by providing branches and leaves for an herbivore to enjoy. What the caregivers are providing for the animals is referred to as environmental enrichment. Keepers can also stimulate an animal's mind and make it easier to medically manage these animals by teaching them to present various body parts as part of an operant conditioning program. Activities like these can be incredibly stimulating and rewarding for animals as they try to figure out what their caregiver is asking of them.
The Los Angeles Chapter of the American Association of Zoo Keepers is an organization committed to professional development and providing animal keepers with opportunities to raise money for animal onservation. Fundraisers held at AAZK chapters throughout the nation have generated both money and awareness for various conservation programs around the globe. One such fundraiser, Bowling for Rhinos, has actually raised well over three million dollars to help save rhinos in Asia and Africa.
The Los Angeles Zoo has recently reinstated its AAZK Chapter. This Chapter is also committed to professional development. In order to learn from others and share our experiences we have set up professional meetings with animal keepers from other institutions around the Southern California area. AAZK/LA has raised $1,000 for Elephant Conservation in Cambodia, $30,000 for Rhino Conservation in the wild and $4,500 for Gorilla Conservation in Central Africa.

I respond to the New York Times article "N. Korea threatens U.S. after nuclear test" in the Feb. 13 Dispatch. Since it first tested a nuclear weapon in 2006, North Korea's strategy has been clear: force international negotiations with a shocking new nuclear or missile test, extract concessions on humanitarian aid, then develop ever-more-powerful weapons in secret.
Wash, rinse, repeat.
What matters most is how the United States reacts, particularly with regard to national security. Unless Congress reaches a bipartisan budget deal before the end of this week, wide-ranging defense cuts will slash across every defense program, including the very missile defenses that we depend on to protect American cities and allies.
A decade of testing has proved they're effective, winning bipartisan support in Congress. And they cost just a fraction of a penny on every defense dollar, hardly a fat target for savings. Yet sequestration could undermine our missile shield at the very moment we need it most.
Moreover, President Barack Obama has suggested even further reductions in our nuclear deterrent.
North Korea's gambit is clear, and our response should be equally so: Bolster our defenses, don't break them down.

The Maroon Vol. XXIX Loyola University, New Orleans La.. Friday, March 29, 1963 No. 16 Maroon Investigates Parking Long Range Plans Revealed EDITOR'S NOTE: A short time ago staff members of The Maroon discovered gross favoritism by members of the New Orleans Police Department in enforcing the two-hour parking limit in the Loyola area. In our continued effort to search for a suitable solution to the onstreet parking problem in this university area The Maroon editor has appointed Eugene Katsanis as special editorial researcher to investigate the aging parking problem. Katsanis, a former editor of The Maroon has been active in the big parking flare-up in 1960 and has worked with the parking problem since that time. By 1956 the Loyola parking problem was becoming quite a headache for students, faculty and administration of the university. Loyola heads were able to find almost enough space for faculty while keeping the horseshoe open to students. At that time it was the only on-campus parking provided by the university. Between then and 1960 the situation became worse. Irate students and student groups, especially The Maroon and the Student Council voiced violent protest against the situation. The administration of Loyola took only a passive view of the parking problem and labeled it "impossible".• NOTHING Nothing was accomplished from the top brass of Loyola. Students found that university officials were just on the border line of helping and making the situation worse. The Maroon kept hammering away at the increasing problem in editorials and at the Student Council for failing to meet and come up with a satisfactory solution. The Student Council claimed that the administration because of their apathy were "tying their hands and making the situation impossible to cope with." In 1959-60 the parking problem was critical. It had reached its climax.. Almost 100 tickets were given to students in one day. The Maroon termed parking the number one campus problem. • COUNCIL ACTS Then the Student Council began to act. The Parking committee was fired up and ready to do something. Committee chairman Bob Landry, was able to get the two-hour parking signs on CalnounCalnoun street removed. This was a major step forward. But the twohour signs on Palmer avenue, Loyola street and Cromwell place remained. Since then no effort (as far as The Maroon can determine) was made to get the remaining signs removed. Landry reported that it would be a rough fight to get any signs removed on Palmer avenue because of the influence of the Palmer Avenue Improvement Association on New Orleans politicians. Many solutions were promised but none proposed. • ATTITUDE CHANGES By this time the administration had begun to change their attitude to the parking problems. A visit to City Hall by one university official ended in appreciable results. But no more was done on onstreet parking. Instead university administration began to toy with the idea of on-campus parking. A student p'arking lot was opened on campus in September of 1961. It accommodated about 45 student cars. More faculty parking was also provided. Presently, the faculty and Student Council are suggesting that the present men's dorms be demolished when the new dorms open in Sept. The ground would be used for student on-campus parking.• CRISIS 1960 Since the crisis that existed in 1960 progress to a solution lias been made: • The two-hour on C'alhoun have been removed. • A student on-campus parking lot was opened in 1961 to provide for about 45 cars. Q More student on-campus Another Parking Ticket... New Orleans Policewoman Lucille Gueringer places a parking ticket on the car of a Loyola student. Policewomen patrolling the university area to ticket students parked over the two-hour time limit have become a familiar sight to Loyolans. Fr. Butt Celebrates Jubilee By MARY ECKALBAR Came To Loyola In 7929 "Father Butt is waiting for you now," smiled the student receptionist at Thomas hall as he ushered me into one of its dark, bare parlors. I had been sent to interview the Rev. Joseph A. Butt, S.J., who is celebrating his golden jubilee as a Jesuit. "Not a priest," Father corrected, "a Jesuit." Perched on an undersized chair before a stack of yellow accounting exam papers, Father looked up quickly and flashed a broad smile. • AN 'A' "Shall we give this boy an 'A'? he greeted. "Oh yes, let's Father." "You do it," he said, handing me a chubby, gray pencil, "but I'm afraid you'll have to mark a 'C on this one. Look at all those mistakes." Since Father Butt has been at Loyola since 1929, longer than anyone except the Rev. Eugene J. O'Connor, S.J., he remembers many things. For instance, he remembers that when he started teaching accounting here 34 years ago, a full nine-months tuition was a mere $129. • BACK DOOR "Girls had to sneak in the back door," he recalled. First the school of medical technology broke the ice and then teacher training. Loyola was definitely a boys' school. "Are the students nowadays more serious about their studies?" he asked. Balancing his large frame on the edge of the chair, Father turned to me seriously. "Right now, owing to the fact that we have raised our sights, the norm is definitely better—except for the rain of Gls in the late 19405," he added. "Students now are better equipped when they come out of high school." • MORE BUILDING There is more building going on at Loyola now than ever before, he nodded. "They used to put buildings up one at a time, and now they're building them in threes." In all the years Father has been here, he avows his greatest satisfaction is in distributing communion at the 12 o'clock Mass. "Such a cross section of students," he mused. The diligence and courage of the boys and girls in the night school is Father's second satisfaction. "Their 's=ticktuitivene.ss' is gratifying." Familiar Scene ... The Rev. Joseph Butt, S.J., chats with students in front of Stallings hall. Fr. Butt has served Loyola many years and is very active in student and alumni activities. This year Fother celebrates his 50th an nivcrsary as a Jesuit. Loyola Tuition Raised; New Center Fee Levied By MARIA GAMBOA Tuition costs will increase at the university next year. This announcement was made by the Very Rev. Andrew C. Smith, S.J., university president, at the regular Student Council meeting Tuesday night. Annual tuition will go up from $700 to $750 in the colleges of arts and sciences, business administration, music and pharmacy, and in the school of law. There will be no change in the evening division fees. In the school of dentistry, tuition will be increased from $800 to $900 for Louisiana residents and from $1050 to $1150 for out-of-state students. Tuition in dental hygiene will remain $750 per year. • TWENTY DOLLAR FEE The president announced a $20 annual fee to help pay the cost of the $1,475,000 student center's services. "Due to the increasing costs and the need for continued improvement in the instructional programs, with great reluctance the board of directors finds it necessary to make modest increases in tuition," he stated. This is no radical change, the board made their decision with "a keen awareness of the nationwide improvement in college facilities and programs." • BURDENS Father Smith continued that although keeping pace imposes special burdens of the non-tax supported institution, it has a serious responsibility to its students and itself to do so. According to recent figures of the U. S. Office of Education, quoted by him, $750 is the average tuition at the nation's colleges and universities. "And many are planning increases," he added The university is constantly striving to assemble funds for scholarship aid. Father Smith cited the first scholarship fund in the school of law recently inaugurated as a result of gifts from alumni and friends as an example. • LOANS Some 347 students are currently receiving $139,400 worth of aid annually from the university. The federal loan program has also been a great aid to students with financial difficulties. Father Smith urged students to investigate these and other loan programs. After his announcement the Council asked the university president if the academic and work scholarships would be increased. Fr. Smith made no positive statement on this point. The Council returning to the regular procedure of the meeting called for a report from the International Relations club. • INVESTIGATION The Charter committee investigated the club and found that it has not lived up to its charter requirements. It asked that the club refute the charges made against it. A representative, Norman Roessler, A&S sophomore, from the club stated that he did not know too much about it. Also he remarked that the president, Dick Derbes, BA senior, had little time, so nothing had been done. Smilingly he said, "I'm rather surprised that we are now being questioned. We have done nothing for the last two years. I'm glad we are finally getting some recognition." • CLUB POLL He said that the club will take a poll to see if people on campus are interested in the club—if they are not he felt that it should be dropped. Rather puzzled when he was asked whether the club had a moderator, he replied, "Yes, I know we have one. I think he's a political science professor somewhere." The organization moderated by Peter Cangelosi, instructor in history, sponsored a Junior United Nations for high school students in the past. The club representative proposed that the Council allow them to continue until the end of the year before they decide to withdraw the club's charter. "I will see in the next few weeks if anvone is interested Drive Nears 63 Goal; ADG Tops All Donors The annual drive for the Ceylon missions is well on its way to reaching the intended goal. A total of $170.50 has been received in contributions from student organizations, according to Martin Butler, drive chairman. Organizations contributing and the amounts of their contributions are: APO ten dollar raffle, totaling $27.50; TPA box lunch sale, $34.00; Thespians, $23.00 from their plays; Edward Douglass White debating society, contribution of $5.00; LSL's Snow Man contest, $36.00; and ADG's movie $45.00. Activities scheduled for the following week are: Raffle, whiskey or perfume to the winner, April 1, sponsored by the Social Science club. A student-faculty basketball game in the fieldhouse, April 2, sponsored by Tri-Sigma social sorority.A series of games of chance sponsored by the sodalities, April 3-10 in the quadrangle. There will be an award given to the school which collects the most money on a percentage basis, and also an award for that organization in the winning school which on its own obtained the most money for the drive. All organizations are encouraged to participate actively in the drive by sponsoring such activities as picture shows, raffles, game nights, card parties, etc. and donating the money to the drive. The organizations will be divided into two groups. The money, collected by an organization of that school will be given to the school. Film Series Sets April 7 Offering The immortal music of the great Tchaikovsky will sweep across the screen Sunday night, April 7, with the film series showing of the musical romance "Song of My Heart." The movie replaces "Moonrise," which was previously scheduled for this date. The film highlights the unforgetable and human story of the mighty composer . . . his successes and failures, his inspirations and heartbreaks. Among selections played in this outstanding film are: "Piano Concerto," "Romeo and Juliet Fantasy," "Fifth Symphony," "1812 Overture" and "Swan Lake Ballet."Starring with Sir Cedric Hardwieke are Frank Sundstrom, AuClry Long, Mikhail Kasumny and Gale Sherwood, all good actors. Allied Artists produced "Song of My Heart" in the late 19405. Replacing "The Titan" April 28 will be Shakespeare's romantic comedy "As You Like It," starring Sir Laurence Olivier, Elizabeth Bergner and Henry Ainley. The Thirty club, honorary journalism society, sponsors the film series. Admission will be $1.00. (See PARKING, page 3) (See TUITION RAISED, page 3) . . .

The pharmaceutical and bio-medical research industry is hoping to remind New Yorkers that it's had a major impact on their lives. YNN's Bill Carey says a group representing companies and researchers is out with a report claiming to have improved the state's physical and financial health.
ONONDAGA COUNTY, N.Y. -- The Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers Association chose Bristol-Myers Squibb's East Syracuse campus to release its report on clinical trials across New York.
The group says it's not seeking any major, new incentives, nor is it battling any new threats on the horizon. It just wanted New Yorkers to know the impact research has had on the state.
"The environment's great in New York. A third of all clinical trials nationally take place here. But we want to make sure that continues to happen," said Kaelan Hollon, Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers Association.
The argument is that companies like Bristol-Myers Squibb are job creators. The latest figures available, from 2008, show 201,000 New Yorkers have jobs associated with the pharmaceutical industry.
"That's direct jobs and even hundreds of thousands more indirectly supported. Billions of dollars are going into the New York economy, thanks to clinical trials," Hollon said.
And good paying jobs, as well. Average salaries in the field are in the $72,000 a year range, about $20,000 higher than the overall state average. The work on clinical trials and bio-medical research pump over $5 billion a year in salaries into New York. And the nature of the group's work, it claims, will mean more benefits for the state in the years to come.
"The total cost of health care in New York State this year is going to be about $198.2 billion. $198.2 billion. And, by 2020, that number's going to grow to just over $318 billion. By reducing the amount of chronic disease a few percentage points, we can save billions of dollars to this state," said Nathan Tinker of the New York Biotechnology Association.
In the end, though, beyond the economics, the industry says the big beneficiaries of its work are people who are taking part in the thousands of clinical trials that promise hope for new treatments and even cures.
"For anyone struggling with their own health condition, or that of a loved one, medical research provides much needed optimism for a better quality of life and a healthier future," said Kathleen Arnsten of the Lupus Foundation of Mid and Northern New York..
Reason, they say, to make growth in the industry a key goal in the years ahead.
There are currently more than 1,200 ongoing clinical trials in New York State, most focused on key chronic diseases such as asthma, cancer, diabetes, heart disease and stroke.

Pursuing Happiness
Readers who are tired of hearing that American consumers are doltish, self-absorbed, and mindless, easy prey for Machiavellian forces of Madison Avenue, are going to be delighted by Stanley Lebergott's shrewd, humorous, and detailed analysis of the American way of spending.
Arguing that the economic theories of Veblen, Galbraith, and Packard might just be based more on personal temperament and lingering Puritanism than on economic reality, Lebergott asks the simple question: "What is functional for human consumers?" And he answers it cheerily, "Surely every (legal) consumer expenditure is." Lebergott finds any attempt to regulate consumer access, or consumer taste, inappropriate in a pluralistic democratic society. He even suggests that the customer is nearly always right, and can be depended on, in his own personal pursuit of happiness, to bring about real improvements in the general standard of living. He applauds women, for example, for embracing the washing machine, the refrigerator, and the vacuum cleaner, thereby reducing the number of weekly hours spent on household chores from "70 in 1900 to 30 in 1981."
Lebergott questions the presumption of evil in all the old economic verities: the conspicuous consumption of the rich; the vulgarizing influence of advertising; and the endless proliferation of variety in consumer goods. He even questions the wisdom of using per capita income as the only measure of the economic welfare....

With roughly 70% of Africa's total population under 30, the 2011 Connect4Climate Campaign tapped into the rich potential of African's youth as powerful agents of social change. In the lead up to the African COP, the UNFCCC COP17 in Durban in 2011, Connect4Climate rallied Africans to submit stories, pictures and videos to our competition. Over 700 photos and videos were submitted to our photo/video competition, including submissions from every country in Africa. Thanks to all who participated and congratulations to all the winners!

"Hudson Hawk," a $51 million action comedy starring Bruce Willis, produced by Joel Silver and filmed on locations ranging from the Brooklyn Bridge to Budapest, is either an example of free-spending folly or the kind of grand entertainment that will always be a part of Hollywood. It depends on whom you ask.
Even at that lofty price, "Hudson Hawk," which opened Friday to some unenthusiastic reviews, is not the costliest film of the summer. That honor belongs to the forthcoming "Terminator 2," which, at $85 million, may well be the most expensive film ever made. That movies cost too much to make is an old story. But with budgets becoming alarmingly expensive, productions are being scrutinized as never before, both by industry executives and the public.
From the start, "Hudson Hawk," with its assortment of strange mechanical devices and global locations, resembled a Jules Verne novel more than a movie, says Daniel Waters, who shares the screenwriting credit with Steven E. de Souza. Plans called for filming in Rome, Budapest, London, New York and Los Angeles. The sheer logistics of transporting a film company around two continents, constructing elaborate props and executing exacting stunts and action sequences, including a chase on the Brooklyn Bridge and a flight in a Renaissance glider, dictated a costly undertaking.

In June 2010, the Government of Alberta provided its formal response to the Setting the Direction framework in which it accepted all 12 of the recommendations, which the response identified as strategic directions for it to implement. In the fall of 2010, inclusion was identified as part of government's Inspiring Action on Education initiative, and Setting the Direction was renamed Action on Inclusion to signal implementation of an inclusive education system.
Since then there has been progress to make changes in practice that support inclusive education. School jurisdictions are leading this work and are discussing and understanding how to make these changes at a local level.
There are many examples of behaviours, techniques and practices that reinforce the impact inclusion has on us all.
Action on Inclusion no longer exists as a project or initiative, but the work continues as part of our collective practice to build an inclusive education system in Alberta.
School authorities are sharing what they're doing to build inclusive school communities locally. At a provincial level, it's important to share what inclusion might look like – anywhere in the province. The following video demonstrates what inclusive school communities may be like.
