Screen resolution | 320 x 240 pixels | The resolution of the screen is the amount of pixels used along the length and width of the screen. Along with ppi, it is a good measure of screen detail – the higher the resolution, the more detail there is in the screen. |
Screen sharpness | 167ppi | The ppi (pixels per inch) is a measurement that takes into account the size of the screen and the resolution to give a sharpness rating. It can be compared across devices – the higher the ppi, the sharper the screen is, making it better for high resolution content and reading. |

Santa Maria native Molly Schlemer has been named the Big West Conference's Player of the Week for the first time in her collegiate career.
The Cal Poly junior averaged 20 points and 7.5 rebounds in just over twenty minutes per game in the Mustangs' wins over UC Davis and Pacific last week. The 6-5 center shot an impressive 75 percent from the field to help Cal Poly improve to 3-1 in conference play and enter a tie for second place.
In just 15 minutes of action in the 73-71 triumph over the Aggies, Schlemer provided 12 points and six rebounds on 5 of 7 shooting.
Schlemer then turned in the best performance of her collegiate career in a triple-overtime, 96-95 nailbiter against Pacific. She scored a career-high 28 points, making 13 of 17 shots, and added nine boards in 28 minutes of play. Schlemer made her 13th field goal in the first overtime to give the Mustangs a one-point lead before fouling out with 1:04 to play.
The 28-point effort eclipsed the previous career-high of 21 points she set against No. 24 Oklahoma State earlier this season

By Gregory Phillips Staff writer
The Cumberland County commissioners agreed Monday to pay $20,000 to settle a lawsuit over negligent inspections.
After a 45-minute closed session, the board voted unanimously to settle the suit over a home in the Baywood South subdivision belonging to Richard Wilson and Regina Wills.
The two were among several homeowners in the development who found structural problems in the homes after moving in. Wills and Wilson moved into a $290,000 home on Bobby Jones Drive in 2006 that was built on a site the county previously classified as swampland.
In 2010, a jury awarded the couple $165,971 after they sued the builder, Caviness Land Development. Lawyers for the couple argued that the concrete slab for the home should not have been poured at ground level, and that the resulting moisture caused their interior floors to rot.
The couple also sued the county after a state investigation - prompted by their complaint - found that four inspectors failed to find code violations at their house and one other in the development in 2005 and 2006.
One inspector failed to note that the soil under the couple's house appeared unable to bear the load of the home, according to the state report.
County policy was tweaked last year to require building inspectors to file more comprehensive reports when examining new homes, and to note when builders are allowed to correct minor violations.

Use of compounds resulting from a sugar polyol or from a dehydrogenated sugar polyol derivative as a UV-screening agent; anti-sun compositions containing the same; and novel compounds
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/010554
Publication date: Jan. 26, 2012
Assignee: L'Oréal, R Hervé and E Dimotakis
This invention relates to the cosmetic use of compounds resulting from a sugar polyol or from a dehydrogenated sugar polyol derivative as an agent for screening out UV radiation.The object of this patent was to find novel UV-screening agents that can be applied to the surface of the skin and/or hair that are more stable than standard UV-screening agents, with respect to factors during use such as water, washing, bathing, swimming, sand, perspiration, sebum and rubbing; that have a good solubility in the anti-sun formulation; and that are environmentally safe. The novel compounds disclosed resulting from a sugar polyol or from a dehydrogenated sugar polyol derivative achieve this objective.

Went there for breakfast and will visit again. For the price of a fast food breakfast, i got something different and tasty. See my picture. It has a biscuit, sausage, eggs then covered in gravy.
Went there for breakfast and will visit again. For the price of a fast food breakfast, i got something different and tasty. See my picture. It has a biscuit, sausage, eggs then covered in gravy.
I really enjoy the turkey pastrami sandwich. All the flavor and taste of pastrami made with heart healthy turkey.
Had the half sandwich and the bowl of soup...soup was delicious! The price was right too. Service was prompt and efficient and the staff was friendly. A good stop for a good lunch.
You know what they say - when traveling, if you want the REAL experience, find out where the locals go. Well, in Montgomery, Chappy's is it, and with good reason. Fast, free delivery to offices, and the food is simply out of this world, and for reasonable prices. You can't go wrong.
Visited Chappys on 9-12-2013 for breakfast. Food was acceptable but service was terrible. The wait person that took my order never came back except to leave bill. She seemed to be more into chatting with someone in a nearby booth than serving her customers. I was not the only person that needed a coffee refill for I saw two other... More
Loved the chicken salad wrap and 3 salad plate. The best part of the who,e visit is getting the ice cream cone after every meal!!
I know this place is a Montgomery institution, and if you live here you're supposed to think Chappie's is the best thing since sliced bread, but I just don't get it. This is just one guy's opinion, but it's not that good. It's OK, just OK.
Can't wait for Prattville's Chappy's to open. I need a Reuben fix plus the best slaw in the world!!!
I wish their was a Chappy's everywhere I went! The food is always good. Every time we pass through Montgomery, we make sure to stop! Kids eat free under 6 which always helps! The bill is always less than what we expect! They also get free ice cream after they eat all of their food! Love this place!!
I eat at Chappy's frequently, and I don't think I've ever had a bad meal. Everything is good. The loaded potato soup is the best in town. The sandwiches can be made to your specifications. Service is always good. I last visited last week, and had a great hamburger.

text: So sunday as a birthday gift my friend got tickets for him, my girlfriend and I to the Walt Disney Concert hall to see the Organ Inauguration. MAN!!! That place is increadable! The acoustics are amazing! The organ sounds so awesome, it's just unbelieveable. Man, I wish I had a larger income so I could subscribe to that venue. Whoo. The LA Phil is great and I was sitting so close I could read their music! So sweet. The only bad thing is that my gf was gushing over Esa-Pekka Salonen the whole time. :rolleyes: Man. That was great, just hearing Toccata and Fuge in Dminor in person was worth it. (probably my favorite piece of music, though Bach's Mass in Bminor is a close second...)

LANSING (AP) -- Gov. Rick Snyder says he's considering whether the state should take "urgent or emergency" action to help harbors hurt by low Great Lakes levels.
Snyder says many Michigan residents don't realize the severity of the problems caused by low water. Lake Michigan's level at the end of October was more than 2 feet below its long-term average.
The governor says he could propose something when he unveils his next budget on Feb. 7. Snyder says a long-term solution is needed to improve Michigan's Great Lakes harbors.
He made his comments Friday in Grand Rapids at the annual meeting of the Michigan Press Association.

Radio at the start of the 1920s featured sporadic programming at best, with only a very limited number of broadcast stations able to send signals to a tiny population of radio receivers. But the rapid development of nationwide radio networks throughout the decade revolutionized communications in the United States and dramatically influenced the structure of American media. The American Telephone and Telegraph Company (AT&T) was more widely known for its development of telephone communication, but the company also provided crucial broadcasting technology that enabled the emergence of nationwide radio networks in the 1920s. In 1922, AT&T formed radio station WEAF (later to become National Broadcasting Company) to serve as a conduit for other groups to transmit their messages to the people of New York City. Rather than providing its own programming, WEAF sold its airtime to companies wishing to advertise their...

About the Organization: Born in Switzerland in 1878, Louis Chevrolet began his vehicle manufacturing career as a young boy, managing a bicycle shop with his two brothers after his family moved to France. Louis spent much of his life making, repairing, and racing automobiles. In 1911, heralded as one of the world's best racers, he teamed with a former Buick Company executive to establish the Chevrolet Motor Company. Although his involvement with the company was in name only after 1913, Chevrolet continued to expand its operations and eventually joined the Ford Motor Company and General Motors Corporation as one of the "Big Three" U.S. automobile manufacturers. The company's marketing campaigns excelled through much of the century, symbolized by perhaps the most famous jingle in car broadcast advertising, "See the U.S.A., in your Chevrolet," from the 1950s.

About the Authors: Briton Hadden (1898–1929), along with Henry R. Luce, pioneered magazine journalism in the 1920s. In 1923, the pair, five years after graduating together from Yale University, created an entirely new format for news coverage—the newsweekly. Time magazine forever changed the way Americans received their news, offering brief reports and vivid pictures in a "timely" fashion.
Henry R. Luce (1898-1967), American magazine editor and publisher, was a powerful journalistic innovator. Luce worked with Hadden on the Baltimore News. They left soon after to raise $86,000 in order to launch Time magazine. After Hadden's untimely death, Luce continued to grow Time and created the business magazine Fortune in 1930 and the photography-based Life in 1936.

About the Author: Alain Leroy Locke (1885–1954) graduated from Harvard in 1907 and taught education at Howard University from 1912 to 1917, then philosophy from 1917 until his death. Locke was the first African American Rhodes scholar. His primary research focused on the theory that race existed only as a social construct. During the Harlem Renaissance, the controversial Locke argued for a sort of cultural pluralism following his notion that culture could be molded and enhanced. His most famous work, The New Negro, resulted from the March 1925 edition of Survey Graphic devoted to the topic.
The Great Migration of the 1910s and 1920s saw well over one million African Americans escape the discrimination of the South to the possibilities and tensions of life in the North and West. As the ensuing race riots in several urban centers...

About the Author: Henry Louis Mencken (1880–1956) emerged as one of the nation's most renowned and controversial social commentators. By age twenty-five, Mencken had risen from entry-level reporter to editor of the Baltimore Herald. His criticism of American social norms, and his support of Germany throughout the First World War, brought great criticism. During the war, magazines and newspapers that normally printed Mencken's reports censored him and refused to publish his work. Mencken refused to stop writing and began what would become a six-volume critique, often quite harsh, of American society and culture. Following the war, he returned to prominence by cofounding the American Mercury in 1923, which he edited until 1933. He continued to write until a series of strokes crippled him in 1948.

With the public broadcast of a program at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York City in January 1910, the era of radio began. World War I (1914–1918) stymied the industry's growth, as civilian radio broadcasts were suspended. Only a handful of stations operated in the years immediately after the war. The relative economic prosperity of the 1920s created the first commercial programs and the installation of hundreds of radio stations nationwide. By the end of the decade, the majority of Americans enjoyed hours of radio programming every day. Radio provided the unprecedented ability to hear music programs, news reports, and sporting events as they transpired miles away. The growing popular appeal of radio spawned a multimillion-dollar industry based upon the sending and receiving of broadcast signals, as well as the marketing of commercial time on expanding radio networks....

Although television would not rival radio in nationwide popularity until after World War II (1939–1945), the development of technologies necessary for both broadcasting media overlapped at the turn of the century. The first radio broadcast occurred in San Jose, California, in 1908, and the first public radio broadcasts began in 1920. The ensuing decade witnessed the development of hundreds of radio stations. In the midst of the explosion of radio broadcasting during the decade, scientists conducted the first successful television transmissions in 1925.
Herbert Eugene Ives (1882–1953) invented and developed the technology used to televise moving images over long distances. Working at Bell Telephone Laboratories (BTL) in the 1920s, Ives experimented with photoelectric cells. He pursued this...

About the Publication: The Daily Worker began in 1924 as the official newspaper of the Communist Party of the United States of America (CPUSA). Moving its headquarters from Chicago to New York City in 1927, the paper gradually grew following the 1920s Red Scare. The Great Depression decimated the American economy and provided a wave of support for leftist reform across the country. During this period, circulation increased to over thirty thousand daily subscribers. The paper campaigned for reforming American society rather than for violent revolution. It championed civil rights for African Americans, women's rights, and increased power for labor. As the Communist Party's membership disintegrated during the cold war, the paper's following dissolved as well and it ceased publication in 1957....

The President's Daughter
By: Nan Britton
Date: 1927
Source: Britton, Nan. The President's Daughter. New York: Elizabeth Ann Guild, 1927, i–v.
About the Author: Nan Britton (1896–1991) spent her youth in Marion, Ohio, but the known historical details of her life are few. Aside from her autobiography, The President's Daughter, little evidence remains from her life and possible relationship with the nation's twenty-ninth president, Warren G. Harding. It was in Marion that Britton became enamored with Harding, who lived much of his adult life in the small town. In 1916, at the age of nineteen, Britton apparently began an affair with the married Senator Harding that continued through his presidency. Britton wrote The President's Daughter in 1927, four years after Harding's death. She asserted that Harding had fathered her daughter, Elizabeth Ann Christian, in 1919.
Historians often rank Warren G. Harding as the worst president in American history. Elected to the White House with more than 60 percent of the vote in 1920, Harding called for a return to "normalcy" after the foreign and domestic turmoil of the war years. Although Harding served for a relatively brief period, from 1921 until his death in 1923, his administration...

About the Publication: The New York Daily News, started by Joseph Medill Patterson in 1919, was the nation's first tabloid-style paper. By the mid-1920s the Daily News reached a circulation of over one million. At the time of Patterson's death in 1946, it stood as the nation's highestcirculation paper, selling well over two million copies every weekday and more than four and a half million copies on Sundays. Patterson had a long family heritage in newspaper publishing. His father, Robert W. Patterson, served as editor of the Chicago Tribune, and his mother's father, Joseph Medill, owned it. By the early twentieth century, Joseph was copublishing the Tribune with his cousin, Robert R. McCormick, before founding the New York Daily News.

Tougher punishment plea by dead victims' relatives
11:00am Saturday 7th September 2013 in News By Emma Harrison, Reporter covering Rose Hill, Littlemore and Iffley. Contact me on 01865 425430
Sandra Davies, whose brother David Cox was killed by a single punch in June 2010. She's now calling for a change in the law on sentencing in such cases after the death of Michael Rogers in similar circumstances
THE sister of a man who died from a single punch is calling for tougher punishments for killers.
Rose Hill grandmother-of-five Sandra Davies, 57, says the three-year sentence given to Jonathan Newton, 18, in 2011 for the manslaughter of her brother David Cox was not long enough.
Her call last night followed the sentencing of cage fighter and kick boxer Logan Usher for the manslaughter of Michael Rogers, of Kidlington, in June 2010.
He was jailed for two years on Thursday last week after admitting manslaughter.
Mrs Davies told the Oxford Mail: "Why do these judges let them off so lightly? It is just a smack on the hand.
"We are really shocked. What we read is exactly what happened to my brother.
"I feel for the parents as well. We know what they are going through."
Father-of-five Mr Cox died in Oxford's John Radcliffe Hospital about 12 hours after the attack near his home in Spencer Crescent, Rose Hill, at 2am on June 26, 2010.
He was struck between the chin and neck by teenager Newton and was found unconscious in a grassy area only yards from his home.
Newton, then of Spencer Crescent, admitted man-slaughter and was jailed for three years.
Mrs Davies said: "It is not fair. It is nothing for a life and is disgusting.
"I feel upset and angry about it all really. I think the law does need to change.
"My brother was just having a night out. He was in the wrong place at the wrong time."
Michael Rogers died 14 months after he was hit by Usher during an unprovoked attack in June 2010 at the Red Lion pub in Oxford Road, Kidlington.
Usher, 24, of Croxford Gardens, Kidlington, was initially convicted of grievous bodily harm in 2011 and jailed for 30 months but the case was re-examined when Mr Rogers died three months later.
Last night his father Grahame Rogers, 57, of Nottingham, said: "I think the law could do with being looked at.
"The severity of the offence of manslaughter falls into a certain category for sentencing and there is nothing you can do.
"Because of all the deductions, for example the guilty plea, in the case of my son it went down to two years."
Of the sentences given, he said: "It doesn't stop those responsible thinking about their actions.
"It is hard for you to accept that that is it.
"My son happened to be in the wrong pub at the wrong time."

Good think I stockpiled real light bulbs.
"Energy efficient bulbs are eco-friendly and can save you big bucks..."Wow, two whopping lies right there in the opening paragraph. Oh - well, it is CBS, after all.
Me, too, #1.
If I have to stay 2 feet away at all times, how do I read?Oh, I see how the leftists work.........If I can´t read, I can´t be a part of the ´informed electorate´ that the Founders KNEW was necessary to the health of our Republic.Democrats Delenda Est
Yet another example of the law of unintended consequences.Why let stubborn things like facts get in the way of showing the unwashed masses how much you "care" and know better.s/o
It doesn´t even mention that you need a hazmat suit practically to clean up a broken bulb. Unbelievable.
Yes, but their hearts were in the right place, and they only wanted to help and they were saving the world from humans and so what it what they believed was wrong headed and misguided--they WANTED TO HELP! /s
The end of 2012 was also the end of 75 watt light bulbs, according to news I heard a couple of weeks ago. The 100 watts are already ´gone.´
I´ve noticed the incadesant heat bulbs I ordered from China at .35/unit sure put off a lot of light in the 60 watt model.NOT joking.
CFLs are crap. Overpriced, don´t last near as long as advertised, need to call Hazmat when one breaks and now you need to wear SPF 50 and sunglasses indoors.Well, somebody does -- it sure ain´t me.
I´ve got a stash of "real" light bulbs" that will last until my first great grandchild is born (I have no grandchildren so that might be a while).
This is obvious and has been for a long while. I don´t understand why they can´t scrap this legislation.And this is on Republicans. A Republican wrote the legislation and a Republican president signed it. Scrap it!
CFLs have been found to leak mercury even if intact and functioning ´normally.´Have a nice day.
This research came from SUNY Stony Brook. Their press releases are about as credible as press releases from UC Berkeley.I am not defending compact fluorescents. I too have a stash of 100 W, 75 W, and 3-way incandescents. But I don´t believe everything I read from researchers at leftist schools.
At some point, they stopped fearing repercussions. Simple as that.
Save money? I don´t think so. I´ve tried them. They cost much more, and don´t last nearly as long as claimed. Plus they are fire hazards. I had two burn out on me while emitting a strong smokey smell. There have been a few stories that leaked past the censors about these bulbs actually catching fire.http://www.wnd.com/2011/12/fire-hazard-fears-over-compact-fluorescent-lamps/I´m done with them.
I understand that ´rough or rugged´ duty bulbs are still available. A bit costly but they do last longer.
These bogus studies are really upsetting. We all know the goobernment wouldn´t mandate it unless it was good for us!
Hey, they kill skin cells, they cause the deadliest form of skin cancer (melanoma), and they´re loaded with mercury!What´s not to like?
I installed them in my office at the ranch. I have to turn them on fifteen minutes early in order for them to gen up to enough light to work by. Effectively, I am wasting fifteen minutes of juice, since I can do not work by the twilight emitted in those fifteen minutes.
Given that there is mercury in the curly bulbs, the eco idiots realize that when one breaks you have to call hazmat to have them come clean up the mess? And in cleaning up the mess, they may have to do things from ruining carpet by cutting holes in it to cutting holes in your floor or maybe even condemn your house in a worst case scenario. Rush talked to a young man a couple of years ago when this subject first came up. The young man said that one of these bulbs got broken in one of those big box stores and people had to go to the ER for mercury poisoning. Problem is, most ER´s in this country aren´t familiar with the symptoms of mercury poisoning. And then there is the issue of landfills being turned into toxic mercury dumps. Oh yes, the bulbs are eco-friendly. And yes, the last sentence is laced with sarcasm.
Any of those bulbs I have that failed go right in the landfill. Whyinhell should I have to put up with their (Greeny) BS and possibly pay for removal? After all, I am forced to buy them by the gooberment. Let them deal with any consequences.
I hope the White House and other government buildings have hundreds --no thousands-of these bulbs burning away.Our house has none. The new A shape Sylvaniahalogen bulbs look like and give the same warm light we all know and love . One has the same light quality as our 100 watts. They are not too expensive and best of all they are NOT GE.
Where do you find the A shaped Sylvania? I´m not familiar with them.
#25Just one of the places I found:http://www.hardwareandtools.com/Sylvania-19008-Supersaver-28W-A17-Halogen-Bulb-Soft-Wht-0744227.htmlSearch for sylvania a17 halogen.
Just like all of the.other green garbage that they force on us...
I thought there was something wrong with the light from those compact fluorescent bulbs. They caused me eyestrain when using them as a close-up work light. Then I read you should stay at least two feet away from them at all times. Now we learn they can cause sunburn and even skin cancer from the strong ultraviolet radiation. I think the newer LED bulbs are safe to use, as they do not have the strong ultraviolet radiation.
Thanks #26. 100 CRI would equal a 100 watt? I bookmarked this site.

Third, close down Shoreline north bound along the bayfront and make it a pedestrian only area from the ABC to the south end by the Holiday Inn.
Fourth, make all of the vacant lots betwen Shoreline southbound and Water Street into parking lots.
But then that would make too much sense and create too much green space and pedestrian areas and create jobs with more businesses on the bay front.

Fresh Corpse
Donated bodies are left exposed to the elements at the University of Tennessee's "Body Farm," so researchers can study decomposition's four stages, starting with the "fresh" state (shown).
Image: Grant Delin
In Brief
- After death, the human body decomposes through four stages.
- The final, skeleton stage may be reached as quickly as two weeks or as slowly as two years, depending on temperature, humidity and other environmental conditions where the body lies.
- Dead bodies emit a surprising array of chemicals, from benzene to freon, which can help forensic scientists find clandestine graves.
More In This Article
The End
Welcome or not, dying is a natural part of the circle of life. Death initiates a complex process by which the human body gradually reverts back to dust, as it were. In the language of forensics, decomposition transforms our biological structures into simple organic and inorganic building blocks that plants and animals can use.
Four main factors affect the pace and completeness of decay. The most important is temperature: the rate of chemical reactions in a cadaver doubles with each 10 degree Celsius rise. Humidity or water from the environment buffers those reactions, slowing their effects. Extreme acidity or alkalinity hastens how quickly enzymes degrade biological molecules—although again, the presence of ample water can mediate the effects. Finally, anything that blocks exposure to oxygen, such as burial, submersion or high altitude, will slow decomposition. Depending on the interplay of these four factors, the body can turn into a skeleton as rapidly as two weeks or take more than two years.

In its 11th year, the "Pickaway County Pizza Challenge" provided music, refreshments, vendors...and of course, a certain American-Italian food...in downtown Roundtown Thursday evening.
The Pickaway County Visitors Bureau operates this event - as well as others, and their pavilion in the Pumpkin Fest - to help fund their Welcome Center at US 22 and US 23, and promote county events and tourism.
Along with the "people's choice" voting, four 'celebrity' judges from Clear Channel Radio - Christina Wolford of WKKJ, Buckeye Country's Harry Wright and Stewart Gardner, and Kevin Coleman - judged 13 pizzas from seven vendors.
And the winners? You'll have to stop in at the Visitors Bureau to find out!
Of course, in just one month is another downtown Circleville event, "The Greatest Free Show on Earth"...the Pumpkin Show.

Brian Ross is one of the most honored and respected journalists in the country. As ABC News' Chief Investigative Correspondent, he reports extensively for "World News with Diane Sawyer," "Nightline," "Good Morning America," and "20/20," as well as for ABC News Radio and "The Blotter" on ABCNEWS.com. Ross joined ABC News in July 1994.
Ross's investigative reports have exposed corruption at all levels of government, led to changes in domestic laws and prompted reforms abroad. Ross and his team most recently made headlines and won an Edward R. Murrow award for their groundbreaking reports on auto company CEOs who flew in private jets to ask for public money in Washington.
When the Bernard Madoff scandal broke in December 2008, Ross was at the forefront of the investigation into this multi-billion dollar Ponzi scheme, breaking news on Madoff, his family and associates, and how the scam was perpetrated over so many years. Ross' extensive reporting on the subject led to his first book, "The Madoff Chronicles: Inside the Secret World of Bernie and Ruth," a "New York Times" best seller published in fall 2009.
In 2006 Ross broke the Mark Foley-congressional page scandal for ABC News, reporting the first details on "The Blotter" on ABCNEWS.com. Within a day of being questioned by ABC News, the congressman had resigned. Ross has received numerous honors for his reporting on this story, including an Emmy Award, a Peabody Award, a USC Annenberg Walter Cronkite Award, an IRE Award, the 2007 National Headliner Award for Television Affiliated Online Journalism, and the Online News Association Journalism Award.
Ross received the 2007 Edward R. Murrow award for investigative reporting for a two-part "20/20" undercover investigation into retail pharmacy errors, focusing on large drug store chains, including CVS and Walgreens . He was also honored with a 2007 Business Emmy for his work for exposing conflicts of interest of some West Virginia State Supreme court justices.
Well known for his work in national security reporting, Ross' was the first to reveal new details on the existence of secret CIA prisons in Eastern Europe, where top al Qaeda figures were held. The exclusive 3-part investigation, which aired on "World News" and "Nightline," garnered a 2005 George Polk Award, the fifth time he has won the award in his career.
His noted undercover investigation of nuclear smuggling which questioned whether American authorities could stop a shipment of radioactive material from entering the country earned him his third duPont Award, one of the most prestigious honors in journalism.
Ross has also reported extensively on international human rights abuses winning numerous top journalism awards for exposes on the sale of executed prisoners' kidneys in China; sweatshop labor in Saipan and sexual misconduct by U.N. peacekeepers in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
During the 2008 political season, Ross continued his award-winning "Money Trail" reporting, focusing on the corporate presence at the 2008 Democratic and Republican National Conventions. Ross and his team first launched the Emmy award-winning series at the 1996 conventions.
Following September 11, 2001, Ross and the Investigative Unit broke numerous stories about the investigation into the terrorist attacks and anthrax letters. Among several exclusive reports, Ross was the first reporter to name Mohammed Atta and describe him as the ringleader of the World Trade Center and Pentagon attacks. He was also the first to report on Zacarias Moussaoui's alleged role in the attacks and his questioning by the FBI prior to September 11th. His "Primetime Thursday" story about the hijacking of United Airlines Flight 93 featured the first airing of transmissions between the plane's cockpit and air traffic controllers.
In addition to filing for all ABC News' broadcasts, Ross files reports for ABC News Radio, available to 2,500 affiliates around the country. He also reports throughout the day for the Investigative Unit's website, "The Blotter," on ABCNEWS.com. Since launching in April 2006, the Blotter has quickly become one of the most popular destinations on ABCNEWS.com, receiving an average of 5 million readers a month.
Ross's work has been repeatedly honored with the most prestigious awards in journalism, including six duPont awards, five Peabody awards, five Polk awards, five awards from the Overseas Press Club, twelve Emmys and three Edward R. Murrow Awards and many more.
Prior to joining ABC News, Ross worked for 20 years at NBC News, reporting for the "NBC Nightly News" and "Dateline NBC."
In an award-winning two-part report for "Dateline NBC" in 1992, Ross exposed Wal-Mart's use of child labor in overseas sweatshops to provide clothing for their "Buy American" campaign. Ross also broke stories on the French Intelligence spying on American businessmen and was the first reporter to track down the fugitive Marc Rich at his Saint Moritz hideaway.
Ross solidified his reputation for investigative reporting by breaking stories such as the 1980 ABSCAM story, for which he was honored with a National Headliner Award. His exclusive report in March 1990 about Iraq trying to buy trigger mechanisms for nuclear weapons just months before the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait made headlines worldwide.
His five-part "NBC Nightly News" series on the Teamsters Union won the 1976 Sigma Delta Chi Award and a National Headliner Award. In 1977, he won a National Headliner Award for a five-part study of organized crime in the United States.
Ross began his professional career in 1971 as a reporter at KWWL-TV in Waterloo, Iowa. He later worked at WCKT-TV in Miami and WKYC-TV in Cleveland. He is a graduate of the University of Iowa.

RV Expert Center
Celebrating Halloween in an RV
Being away from home in an RV during the fall allows travelers to enjoy the best of the autumn season. From colorful foliage and cooler temperatures to farm stands packed with apples and pumpkins, travelling during the fall has a lot of advantages. However, some RVers may feel as if they are missing out on a "real" Halloween.
That's not the case, according to many RV lifestyle experts.
According to TheFunTimesGuide.com, many RV resorts, RV parks and campgrounds go out of their way to make Halloween an event to remember. After all, RVing is compatible with a family-oriented lifestyle and Halloween is definitely something that families celebrate together.
Examples of campground-sponsored Halloween activities include costume parties and contests, trick-or-treating, pumpkin carving contests and hayrides.
Your-RV-Lifestyle.com suggests RVers decorate their vehicles and campsites for the holiday with pumpkins, strings of lights and other seasonal decorations.
Checking out local events will also help you get into the Halloween spirit. These may include haunted houses, costume parades and corn mazes. Individuals may find listings for these events in local papers, community websites and by asking around town.
Other ways to celebrate this spooky holiday include throwing your own Halloween party or hunkering down indoors to watch your favorite scary movies.

All of us aspire for enough wealth to be able to finance at least some of our dreams. Giving our family the very best, educating our children, indulging in a hobby - things that can make our lives more rewarding. One of the best chances of doing so is by investing wisely and regularly today. When one is investing for the long-term, one has to look at generating a return that is greater than inflation. For example, if you get a return of 10 per cent from your investment and inflation is 8 per cent then the real return you have made is 2 per cent. Studies show that equity and equity linked instruments tend to outperform all other forms of investments in the long run. Hence you should look at investing some portion of your money in equity markets with an aim to meet future goals comfortably.
Presenting the HSBC India Opportunities Fund (HIOF)
The HSBC India Opportunities Fund an actively managed, flexi-cap equity fund that invests in an assortment of large, mid and small cap stocks to suit every market condition.
