"Doctrine: Fundamental principles and officially sanctioned beliefs which guide the
Coast Guard in support of national objectives. Doctrine is authoritative but not
directive, requires judgment in application, and provides decision makers and
personnel a standard frame of reference. "(Doctrine Study Group Final Report,
01 April 2009).
The Coast Guard Office of Doctrine Oversight is responsible for the administration of
the Coast Guard Doctrine System.
The Office does not write doctrine. Its purpose is to administer and enforce the Servicewide
doctrine process in a timely, consistent, and standardized manner. This includes the
enforcement of editorial standards and precise use of terms. Precise use of terms includes
the establishment and maintenance of a standard reference source for Coast Guard terms,
i.e., a Coast Guard Lexicon.
Additionally, CG-0953 is the portal through which other agencies or government
departments reach the Coast Guard regarding matters of doctrine. CG-0953 ensures
inquiries are properly tracked and resolved consistent with other doctrine in place or
under development.

Brown Deer Mom
Brown Deer mom offers helpful "takeaways" while traveling about town with two girls, ages 6 and 3. It's not rocket science, just a slice of life.
Why We Support Brown Deer's Fun Fair
It is an "aha" moment that I clearly remember.
With the Fun Fair a couple of days away, organizers issued one last
call for volunteers. Out of the blue, a voice in my head said, "If not
you, who?"
I was new. New parent. New homeowner. We were new to the
Brown Deer community after moving more than 100 miles away from
our hometown. I felt fortunate to live in a great public school district.
We benefited from an engaged PTO and its members who work hard to
create a nurturing and competitive learning environment.
Then it hit me.
This doesn't just happen. Parents make it happen. They donate time,
talent and money. The high quality of our school community depends
on our participation if it's to be sustained.
Still, sometimes during a crazy, surreal moment, I think the old timers
from our childhood are here to get it done. Obviously, reality snaps
me back and I acknowledge life's cycle. Worker bees of previous years
are forever gone -- dead, retired or no longer able to help.
So that means it's on us. I am that parent. We are that generation.
Finding time to volunteer isn't always easy. Life happens.
Again, here lies the beauty of this community. Gracious PTO members
always welcome you with a smile accepting whatever you can give,
whenever you give it.
However, more than anything, I enjoy the way the Fun Fair connects
you to the community. It fosters a delightful sense of fellowship,
ownership and pride. We're excited about this year's Fun Fair.
If you still need a reason to support this great event, consider this.
According to the PTO, the annual Fun Fair raises about 10 thousand
dollars for the school. The proceeds pay for field trips and classroom
supplies. Your donations also help pay for big-ticket items like smart
boards, science kits and computer programs.
The 2013 Fun Fair is this Saturday, March 9th from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
at the Brown Deer Middle School.
Come out for a good cause and remember that the Fun Fair is
just that, fun.

Honestly, i'm the type who doesn't want to share.
So if someone else takes claim to the name first, even if i've always liked it, it ruins it for me.
I did know of someone from my old home town that named her daughter Rowan a few months before I was due. But I knew I would never see her again and our kids would never meet so I kept it. But if I thought for even a moment that they might grow up together, I would've deferred to another name from my shortlist.
This time around I did my research on facebook. Making sure no one even remotely associated with my everyday life had a kid named Teagan.
This is another big reason I stay away from the more popular names in the first place also.Mama to ~Rowan Josephine 1/12~
and ~Teagan Dahlia~ 5/13~

Yes to all three... but less enthused about the secound one... friend might not appreciate what you did.. and its not like you can keep the childs name a secret bc of facebook and all

If I really loved the name and it was the name I had been decided on for a long time, or if it was the only name we could agree on, then I wouldn't hesitate to use the name.
I guess for me, it depends more on the closeness of the friendship, rather than the geography. Still, if there was another name I like equally as much, I would switch my choice unless it had been my #1 name since childhood. There are so many options out there, and I feel like I'm pretty flexible. Personally, I'd rather not repeat a name that's already in my circle.Lucia
Atlas, Bruno, Edmund, Fabien, Joscelin, Marius, Aitzol, Amets, Ekhi, Gorka, Imanol, Liher
Alba, Eulalia, Jemima, Leonor, Séfora, Seraphine, Amparo, Aña, Itsaso, Leire, Maixabel, Miren

I think it depends on the name. If it was something popular like Olivia, I'd be more inclined to use it compared to something more unusual like Persephone. And I'd make sure there was a different middle. If the existing child was considerably older as well, as in not a newborn, it would make me more likely to use it - a baby Olivia isn't going to be in the same circles as a friend's four year old Olivia for the most part. It'll also depend on how close I am to the person - an acquaintance or work colleague isn't likely to be in your life for as long as your really close friends, and I wouldn't want to lose out on a name I truly loved because of someone I might lose touch with in two years time.
Anna Katherine * Lydia Ellen * Zoe Madeleine * Phoebe ___ * Imogen ___ * Emilia ___Samuel * Thomas * Charlie * Reuben * Oliver * George

He once was crowned the winner of Dancing With The Stars.
And -- out with a very inspirational brand new book it's called the game on finding your purpose pursue your dream.

Hot off the presses ...
Well, if there were interweb presses, this would be hot off them.
Just got done the typical post-shootaround media sessions -- TV guys get stuff for the evening news, we get stuff for first-edition stories -- and every now and then there's a snippet of news.
Today's is that T.J. Ford is definitely going to play and definitely going to come off the bench tonight when the Raptors play Cleveland.
"Until he gets his legs back and his timing," was how Sam described Ford's backup role right now. "We'll work him back in slowly but we need T.J."
Nothing has changed with the other walking wounded on either team.
Andrea Bargnani will play, Chris Bosh might and LeBron James is still what they call a game-time decision.
James did wander in to take part in the Cavs shootaround but he doesn't deign to talk to the media game-day mornings so we don't know what he's thinking or how his banged-up finger is. He'll conduct an audience pre-game only.

Making payments with mobile phones
enabled with near field communications, or NFC, is expected to grow significantly as mobile technologies become more advanced and the infrastructure to support NFC payments falls into place.
NFC is increasingly being adopted by payment networks, banks, merchants, mobile device manufacturers and mobile network operators as the global standard for mobile payments. This year, analysts anticipate that smartphone shipments will grow by over 38.6 per cent year-on-year, reflecting the increasingly interactive relationship consumers have with their phones.
technology is transforming mobile phones into payment devices that will change the way people live, work and play," said said Niki Manby, head of Emerging Products for Visa Asia Pacific, Central Europe, Middle East and Africa. "NFC payments have enormous potential and we are committed to providing the convenience of this technology in a secure manner to our customers."
There is an undeniable demand for contactless transactions using the mobile phone. Juniper Research predicts that NFC mobile payments are set to exceed $180 billion worldwide in 2017. Visa is committed to enabling more consumers to make payments from their phones to a contactless terminal securely and efficiently. In the Middle East, Visa has worked closely with mobile network operators, handset manufacturers and financial institutions, merchants and technology providers to develop and commercialise mobile payments and related services.
In Kuwait, for example, Visa partnered with the National Bank of Kuwait and Zain to deliver the region's first NFC mobile payment trial, in a move that gave up to 350 NBK Visa cardholders the convenience and security of paying for their purchases using Visa payWave on their Nokia 6212 phones at over 70 merchant partner outlets in The Avenues, Kuwait's largest mall.
In the UAE, Visa is working together with leading industry players etisalat and Emirates NBD on a mobile contactless technology trial, enabling Emirates NBD Visa cardholders to purchase goods and services with their NFC-enabled mobile phones, with purchases charged directly to the customer's Emirates NBD Visa credit card account.
Visa's commitment
to driving NFC acceptance across the region is paving the way for mobile device manufacturers, mobile operators and retailers to partner with financial institutions to offer Visa mobile payment functionality to consumers globally.
In order to make NFC-based payments an everyday reality, three components of the NFC ecosystem need to be in place — compatible handsets and hardware, a viable support infrastructure, and a well-established contactless payment acceptance infrastructure. Visa is working closely with industry partners to develop a robust ecosystem which will enable consumers to make payments faster and more conveniently.
The development of NFC-enabled hardware, payment applications and convenient user interface applications, will be at the forefront of contactless mobile payments.
Visa's payWave acceptance technology uses industry standards such as ISO 14443, EMV and Global Platform that are compatible with existing contactless payments terminals already installed at retail outlets worldwide.
Earlier this year, Visa announced a new service, Visa Mobile Provisioning Solutions, that provides financial institutions and mobile network operators a one-stop solution to securely download payment account information to NFC-enabled smartphones. This new service was developed in collaboration with Oberthur.

Daniel Cudmore, Clayne Crawford and Travis Fimmel are seen in Louisiana on the set of their new movie The Baytown Disco. The three play the Oodie brothers (Lincoln, Brick and McQueen) who are pretty badass. From imdb.com:
"When three redneck brothers agree to help a woman save her son from an abusive father, they become targets on the run from an odd cast of characters.
This odd team must shoot their way through gorgeous female assassins, Native American hunters, Federal agents, and a whole lot of metal coming after them, while protecting Celeste's (Eva Longoria) innocent child."
PICTURES: Check out more on The Baytown Disco page
The tagline from the movie's poster reads, "A Southern Whip-Ass Extravaganza!" Sounds interesting and they definitely look the part. I couldn't even tell that was the same Daniel Cudmore from the Twilight saga. Billy Bob Thornton also stars in the film.

Adenoviruses - a group of viruses that infect the membranes (tissue linings) of the respiratory tract, the eyes, the intestines, and the urinary tract - account for about 10% of acute respiratory infections in children and are a frequent cause of diarrhea .
Adenoviral infections affect infants and young children much more frequently than adults. Child-care centers and schools sometimes experience multiple cases of respiratory infections and diarrhea that are caused by adenovirus.
Although these infections can occur at any time of the year, respiratory tract disease caused by adenovirus is more common in late winter, spring, and early summer. However, conjunctivitis and pharyngoconjunctival fever caused by adenovirus tend to affect older kids mostly in the summer.
The majority of the population will have experienced at least one adenoviral infection by age 10. Although adenoviral infection in kids can occur at any age, most take place in the first years of life. Since there are many different types of adenovirus, repeated adenoviral infections can occur.
Depending on which part of the body is affected, the signs and symptoms of adenoviral infections vary:
Febrile respiratory disease , which is an infection of the respiratory tract that includes a fever , is the most common result of adenoviral infection in children. The illness often appears flu-like and can include symptoms of pharyngitis (inflammation of the pharynx, or sore throat), rhinitis (inflammation of nasal membranes, or a congested, runny nose), cough, and swollen lymph nodes (glands). Sometimes the respiratory infection leads to acute otitis media , an infection of the middle ear. Adenovirus often affects the lower respiratory tract as well, causing bronchiolitis , croup , or viral pneumonia , which is less common but can cause serious illness in infants. Adenovirus can also produce a dry, harsh cough that can resemble whooping cough (pertussis) .
Gastroenteritis is an inflammation of the stomach and the small and large intestines. Symptoms include watery diarrhea, vomiting, headache, fever, and abdominal cramps.
Urinary tract infections can cause frequent urination, burning, pain, and blood in the urine.
Eye Infections:
Adenovirus is highly contagious, as indicated by the occurrence of multiple cases in situations of close contact, such as child-care centers, schools, hospitals, and summer camps.
The types of adenovirus that cause respiratory and intestinal infections spread from person to person through respiratory secretions (coughs or sneezes) or fecal contamination. Fecal material can be ingested through contamination of water supplies, poor hand washing between the bathroom and the kitchen, eating food contaminated by houseflies, or poor hygiene after handling diapers.
A child might also pick up the virus by holding hands or sharing a toy with an infected person. Indirect transmission can occur through exposure to the contaminated surfaces of furniture and other objects.
The types of adenovirus causing conjunctivitis may be transmitted by water (in lakes and swimming pools), by sharing contaminated objects (such as towels or toys), or by touch.
Once a child is exposed to adenovirus, symptoms can develop from 2 days to 2 weeks later.
Adenoviral illnesses often resemble certain bacterial infections, which can be treated with antibiotics. But antibiotics don't work against viruses. To diagnose the true cause of the symptoms so that proper treatment can be prescribed, your doctor may want to test a sample of respiratory or conjunctival secretions, a stool specimen, or blood or urine sample - depending on what condition is being considered.
The doctor will decide on a course of action based on your child's condition. Adenoviral infections usually don't require hospitalization. However, infants and young children may not be able to drink enough fluids to replace what they lose during vomiting or diarrhea and may therefore need to be hospitalized to correct or prevent dehydration. Also, young - especially premature - infants with pneumonia usually need to be hospitalized.
In most cases, a child's body will get rid of the virus over time. Because antibiotics are of no use in treating a viral infection, you should simply try to make your child more comfortable.
If your child has a respiratory infection or fever, getting plenty of rest and taking in extra fluids is essential. A cool-mist humidifier (vaporizer) may help loosen congestion and make your child more comfortable. Be sure to clean and dry the humidifier thoroughly each day to prevent bacterial or mold contamination. If your child is under 6 months old, you may need to clear his or her nose with a bulb syringe.
Don't give any over-the-counter (OTC) cold remedies or cough medicines without checking with your child's doctor. You can use acetaminophen to treat a fever; however, do not give aspirin because of the risk of Reye syndrome , a life-threatening illness.
If your child has diarrhea or is vomiting, increase fluid intake and check with the doctor about giving an oral rehydration solution to prevent dehydration .
To relieve the symptoms of conjunctivitis, use warm compresses and a topical eye ointment or drops if your doctor recommends them.
Most adenoviral infections last from a few days to a week. Severe respiratory infections may last longer and cause lingering symptoms, such as a cough. Pneumonia can last anywhere from 2 to 4 weeks.
In cases of pharyngoconjunctival fever, sore throat and fever may disappear within a week, but conjunctivitis can persist for another several days to a week. The more severe keratoconjunctivitis can even last for several weeks. Adenovirus can also cause diarrhea that lasts up to 2 weeks, which is longer than other viral diarrheas.
There's no way to completely prevent adenoviral infections in kids. To reduce the risk of transmission, parents and other caregivers should encourage frequent hand washing, keep shared surfaces such as countertops and toys clean, and remove children with infections from group settings until symptoms subside.
Most of these adenoviral conditions and their symptoms are also associated with other causes. Call your doctor if:
Remember that you know your child best. If he or she appears to be severely ill, don't hesitate to call your doctor right away.

Helen: Sundance Drama
Thursday, January 29th, 2009
Ashley Judd performs brilliantly in the extremely dramatic and touching film, HELEN. Written and directed by Sandra Nettelbeck, Helen examines a woman who seemingly has the "perfect life" (a successful teacher, married, has a beautiful daughter) but is actually struggling with serious mental illness that is deteriorating her mentally as well as physically. We watch Helen being eaten away from inside out by her bipolar disorder and depression. We also witness the powerful and inspiring bond that arises between her and another woman through their struggles. The breakdown Helen undergoes is extraordinarily realistic as well as heart wrenching.
Talk about, depressing, dark and emotion driven, this film is not for the faint of heart. The cinematography compliments the story to a T. The muted and monochrome like colors juxtaposed with Helen's descent into mental illness are genius.
What I really liked about this film was that it was not your cliche film what with predictability and a happy ending. I loved the elusiveness that existed within the story and how there was not always easy answers or any answers at all, and things didn't always work themselves out. I also loved the message of never giving up no matter how hard it is and even when you want to give up more than anything. I am a big believer in the saying, "What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger," and this message definitely emanates from the film. (more…)

We had departed London and just passed 30 degrees west longitude, slightly less than halfway across the ocean. The flight attendant chime sounded in the cockpit accompanied by the engine instrument and crew alerting system message "cabin call." I put the interphone handset to my ear.
"Les, it's Liz. We have a woman in coach that we believe is having a heart attack."
Liz was the purser, the lead flight attendant.
After a momentary pause, I responded, "Has a physician been requested?"
"Yes, he's treating her now."
I visualized the doctor pulling the pads out from the case of the onboard automated external defibrillator and applying it to the passenger.
Reaching forward with an index finger, I pressed the "alternate" page of the FMC (flight management computer). A list of four-letter identifiers for the nearest alternate airports was displayed. Peering at the instrument panel clock, I made a quick calculation.
"Our best alternate is one hour and 20 minutes away. Keep me advised, Liz."
"Will do," she said with the calm of a 911 operator.
After flying across the North Atlantic for almost 15 years without incident, I was about to break my winning streak.
As per protocol, we had been proactive in monitoring potential alternate airport options. Relative to our position, two airports on the list were suitable in terms of distance and acceptable weather conditions: Gander, Newfoundland, and Keflavik, Iceland. If Gander became the choice, the current track westbound could be maintained with only a minor correction once we neared the Canadian coastline. Keflavik would require a turn of more than 90 degrees off the current track, but it was nearest in point of time.
I looked at my copilot, Deane, and said, "Via the CPDLC (controller pilot data link communications), send a free text message to Gander Radio that we have a medical emergency on board and that we may be requesting direct to Keflavik."
Deane nodded with a sheepish grin. I understood the hesitant expression. It is anecdotally typical that, when an emergency event occurs, one crew member has just completed his initial operating experience flight with a check airman on the trip prior. This was the case for Deane. Although he had demonstrated great aptitude for a pilot new to the 777, some understandable awkwardness with the airplane's electronic nuances remained. I guided him through the steps that would allow him to complete the task I had requested.
Liz had been providing me with updates on the passenger's status. Initially, the 77-year-old woman was unresponsive and ashen. Although the AED was never utilized, she had been laid prone in the aisle. As time progressed, the woman became more lucid and was moved to the first-class cabin. Her pallor, however, remained the same. Further inquiries to her accompanying husband indicated that she had suffered similar symptoms the day prior.
When Deane completed the airborne text message, I instructed him to contact our dispatcher via satcom. It was time to involve the physician on call.
Soon after the warble of the satcom ring filled the cockpit speakers, our dispatcher answered. Deane explained the situation. The physician on call was conferenced in and briefed. The tone of the physician's analysis indicated that our medical problem might not be dire. This analysis conflicted with that of the onboard doctor.
I took a deep breath and sighed inwardly. It was time to put on the proverbial captain's hat. I looked at my copilot, shook my head, unsnapped the intercom handset from its cradle and pressed the code that would chime the first-class cabin. Liz answered almost immediately. I explained that I needed the doctor's final recommendation. The doctor was emphatic. Land the airplane.
I nodded at Deane. He conveyed the information. Although the dispatcher wanted us to consider Gander, if time was of the essence then Keflavik was the only option. We were about to fly 201 passengers and 11 flight attendants to a destination where none had probably ever been — including Deane and I.
I visualized the off-track contingency procedure. We had been cruising at FL 390. Other traffic on the North Atlantic tracks was vertically separated, both north and south of our position, by 1,000 feet. The contingency procedure allowed for a descent 500 feet below our current altitude in order to cross the tracks without conflict.

Rugby League celebrates Paul Sculthorpe MBE
The RFL has sent its congratulations to Paul Sculthorpe after the former St Helens and Great Britain captain was awarded an MBE in the New Year's Honours list.
The 35-year-old has received his MBE in recognition of his achievements as a Rugby League player and his unstinting charitable work.
RFL Chief Executive Nigel Wood said: "On behalf of the whole Rugby League family, I would like to extend our congratulations to Paul on this richly-deserved accolade.
"Throughout his career with Warrington, St Helens, England and Great Britain, Paul was the consummate professional and a role model who helped inspire thousands of youngsters to play Rugby League.
"He has continued to be an outstanding ambassador for the sport through his development work in the North West and his work with UK Anti-Doping in their 100%ME campaign.
"In recent years Paul has helped raise tens of thousands of pounds for charities including the Rugby League Benevolent Fund through his involvement with the Steve Prescott Foundation.
"I am delighted that Paul's efforts, his achievements and the values which he represents have been recognised in this way."
Sculthorpe began his career at Warrington Wolves before joining St Helens for a world record fee in 1997. He won 26 caps for Great Britain.
During his time with Saints Sculthorpe won four Grand Finals, three Challenge Cups and two World Club Challenges. In 2002 he became the first player to retain the Man of Steel award.

Time to move your bobhouse
The structures also cannot be left on public or private property without permission, Fish and Game advised.
The law is designed to ensure that bobhouses and their contents don't fall through the ice and become a hazard to boaters or get left behind on shore, explained Sgt. Dave Eskeland of the agency's law enforcement division.
Failure to remove a bobhouse by the deadline can result in a fine and a one-year loss of the owner's fishing license. In cases where conservation officers cannot identify the bobhouse owner, Fish and Game has the authority to seize any bobhouse and its contents not removed by the deadline, Eskeland said.
For more information, contact the local conservation officer or Fish and Game's law enforcement division at 271-3127.

The production of crude oil – which eventually gets processed to feed many of our growing energy demands – comes at a great expense. It involves a process that places the highest demands on personnel and equipment. Such extreme operating conditions require the most advanced and secure of safety standards. Enter Dräger.
Dräger's reliable and durable equipment is adaptable to specific hazards and always meets standards for safety – and our fully-equipped workshops give personnel the training they need to work in potentially hazardous environments. Dealing with oil and gas is not the most relaxing job – but with Dräger by your side, you can breathe easier when you're doing it.
Well prepared in handling hazardous substances: Dräger offers a wide range of gas detection systems, personal protection equipment and supporting services.
Oil and gas production always involves the potential release of combustible gases and liquids. For this reason, harmful substance emissions must be monitored at all times. Dräger offers proven stationary and portable measuring and monitoring systems that reliably emit acoustic and visual alarms whenever critical levels are detected. Dräger fire and gas systems technology reacts reliably and sensitively to smoke and any abnormal temperature rises, quickly preventing the spread of fires. Dräger's advanced breathing air supply units are available for situations when oxygen levels become depleted and in addition, our escape equipment is always ready and easy to use should the need arise. In parallel to our extensive product portfolio, Dräger also offers advisory support and consultation services including analysis of needs and demands, planning, training, seminars and the installation of technology such as monitoring devices – as well as respiratory protection and escape solutions. In short, Dräger can help you to look after your people, protect your assets and support your safety goals. Offering a total solution, Dräger combines specialist knowledge of both the offshore and onshore oil, gas and petrochem industries with innovative products and professional services to suit every application.

Time is money. The demand for oil and gas is so high, that it truly is produced today, processed tomorrow and consumed the next day – leaving no room for a temporary storage facility. Transport of oil & gas happens via undersea pipelines or ships and, of course, the highest safety standards must apply to feeding those pipelines and loading carriers in order to avoid unnecessary risks, hazards and potential dangerous leakage. Dräger detection technology provides essential and speedy support for plant and facility operators in the construction and servicing of piping and platforms that are used. Dräger's specially designed systems are also available and can be adapted to specific customer requirements – enabling this fast-paced industry to keep up to speed - above and below sea level.

Providing state-of-the-art service workshop facilities, the Bridge of Don centre guarantees cost-effective and time-efficient maintenance of breathing apparatus, personal escape systems and gas detection equipment. Offering a complete health and safety solution locally, from Aberdeen, Dräger understands the safety risks faced by those working in the oil, gas and petrochem industries on a daily basis.Rental needs covered: In addition to our training facilities, solutions for temporary projects or contracts can also be met by Dräger's wide-reaching rental options.

Washington DC is not a state and does not have the constitutional authority for Senators, nor House members. The people living in that 10 square miles knew this before they moved there.
I assume if DC got statehood,they would also get two more liberal senators.If I´m not mistaken DC was set up as a neutral area to house government offices.Ireally don´t get all these libals rags being down on Obama all of a sudden. Maybe it´s a collective to downplay expectations for Obama´s next for years. But to wallow in idiotic sentiments like a 2nd coming of camelot,shows these morons don´t really get the devastation going on across this country.Maybe Obama/Lincoln thing isn´t sticking the way they hoped.Their biggest problem is convincing people failure means success only because Obama´s too brilliant to make a mistake.the left wing central planners behind Obama have to realize he doesn´t have the time or money to finish the country off.
Urbanist...is that where someone tries to turn the entire nation into the South Side if Chicago?
Maybe it´s just me but I think a photo of the poseur in our White House does not belong on this website. If there has to be one, maybe the face can be airbrushed or pixelated so we do not have to see that "Joker"like grin. Never. For me it ruins my day and makes me want to vomit.
This baloney about him always having dinner with Michelle and the girls...Considering his background, I´d call it Camel-lot.
People voted for him on the promise they would be elevated and stuff would be taken away from other people and given to them. Plain and simple.
I agree with #4, but I would classify his look as arrogant. It really spoils my breakfast to have to see him early in the morning. Or afternoon. Or evening. In don´t ever remember seeing George Bush´s picture confronting me every day. Although he never had that smug/arrogant look on his face that Obummer has all the time.
The very purpose of setting up DC was to house the Federal Government on territory that was "neutral" between all States. Otherwise New York City would have been fine the way London or Paris were for the UK and France. As the poster above said everyone should know this. But then Chuck Shumer should also know that writing a budget means doing so without raising further taxes.
~~He waited until after his reelection to put the "Taxation without Representation" tags on his limo, in part, because embracing the ethics-challenged D.C. political elite means hugging somebody on Monday who might be slapped in cuffs on Friday, according to Democrats in his circle.~~Great city, D.C., isn´t it?
Obama is like shiny oak veneer, with rotten plywood underneath. The lofo´s still see the shiny veneer, conservatives see the rotten plywood, democrats and the old media see the rotten plywood...and don´t have a problem with it.

The Sunshine Skyway Bridge at Sunset
Here is the Sunset Shot that Matches Yesterdays Post: http://www.awesomephotographyblog.com/twilight-photography/the-sunshine-skyway-bridge-in-twilight/
I have always found the Sunshine Skyway to be one of the most elusive Landmarks to Photograph. Getting the right lighting, clouds, and weather plus getting the lights on the top of the span to all cooperate is a full time job.
While driving home from the office on Friday night, November 11th, 2008, we noticed that the clouds were tall and billowy. The light was exceptional. The weather was picture perfect. The Paint job and lights on the bridge were all brand new. After Years of chasing the Skyway with Lori (In memoriam 1960 – 2008), we finally got some awesome shots of this, the most magnificent of all bridges.
This HDR Photograph was taken from the South Fishing Pier just minutes before Sunset.

Hats off to the civil war giftshop for having this debate. Have owned this debate for a few years on vhs. Was looking through the store and there it was on dvd. Made me wonder if any of the members have seen it? I thought it was great. It is in a biblical setting, as two Presbyterian Preachers debate the wars issues. The funny thing about it is the pro northern Preacher wears gray and the pro southern wears blue. Might be worth checking out.http://www.civilwarinteractive.com/giftshop.htm It is on 6 on the dvds middle bottom. Pender Last edited on Tue Sep 27th, 2011 06:59 pm by pender |

I have had my iPhone 5 white 32GB for 2 months now and there will be scuffs, it is inevitable. The most common place to get scuffs is on the champhered edges which have a too many scuffs for my liking and I also keep my iPhone in a case as I am a very careful person however it is inevitable

Week 47. Discoloring on bottom by port and headphone jack, static/muffled when talking (reset did nothing) scratched back, scratched home button. Ridiculous. Phone looks like its been used for over a year. Going back next week. not ocd is anyway, just alone the static and echoing when talking is really annoying.

Similar experiences. My iPhone 5 after 17 days looks more used than my iPhone 4s for a year+ (before I dropped it on cement of course).

The reason I went back to a case was simply that I grew tired of "holding it right" with the antenna issue. With the 5 it seems apparent, from the couple I have seen, that it is a vain hope that it will look as good - caseless - after a few months as my 4 looks after 2 years. |

And it holds up to wear and tear FINE. No one has had a problem with the operation of their phone because of "scuffgate". This is a purely COSMETIC issue. Apple could have made it out of diamonds and plutonium. Not only would it have still had "flaws" (I can hear it now... "my diamonds have inclusions... why oh why did Apple use diamonds?!?!"), but it still wouldn't have satisfied everyone. Apple chose the materials they did 1) to maximize profit (they are a business) and 2) because it makes the phone lighter, thinner, and better suited to survive drops. NOT survive them unscathed, but to survive them and not require replacement (like when you drop glass). The 5 scratches easier than the 4/4S. It doesn't mean it wasn't 100% worth it, and it doesn't mean Apple made some horrible decision just because you can't keep it "perfect" AS easy. It can obviously still be done... mine is a launch day phone that I use without a case, and it still is. Even being that crappy aluminum. The shock! |

There's a difference from a blown/defective earpiece that's static and echoes along with discolored and scratched out of the box, it's mass produced so I can understand but an inconvenience to run it back, I can live with scratches not a bad earpiece!

You will always have a number of faulty items slip through the net, usually a very low percentage - from the fuss being made it seems like the iPhone 5 has more issues than previous generations. |

So mediocrity is the rule going forward? Tim Cook described the iphone 5 as an "absolute jewel". That is a bar which has been created not by the OCD people here but by Apple themselves.

Went in today picked up a week 47, pretty much flawless just a very small chip on top on the back edge, didn't care for it. But when I used the phone I noticed the screen was pretty yellowed washed even compared to in house phones at the Apple store.
Swapped it out for a week 46, screen is much more vibrant and cooler. However there were 2 very small scuffs/chip on the volume button side near the antennas. Everything flawless. I rather have a crisp screen than worry about some scuffs that will end up coming up on the phone eventually.

I tried on a hard case, and it immediately scratched the chamfered bezel. I think it really depends on the case. You need a soft TPU or silicone case. |

After only 4 weeks with my Iphone i now have a few tiny scuffs on the upper corners of the phone. I was very surpriced since i keep it in a sleeve and only take it out to use it. I really treat it like a new born baby.
Annoying, but they are so small so i wont do anything about it for now. |

And if you don't remember problems with previous generations that's mighty selective of you... The Original iPhone had that awful chrome bezel (that if it didn't have scratches out of the box it would within hours...), 3G/S had a plastic back that often cracked on the edges where it met the phone's body AND had the bezel issues too, and the 4 had ANTENNAGATE, yellow screen "gate" and glass that people couldn't help themselves from breaking! Even the 4S had "batterygate" and blue/yellow screen "gate" even if it solved "antennagate". None of these were "real" problems unless you buy into the whole forums being reality thing. If that's the case Apple would be out of business by now with all the disasters it's facing... This "none of my old iPhones had any problems out of the box" LIE, is a lot like remembering ex-girlfriends. If you find a flaw with your current gf the memory of your ex gets a little more rosey... |

Even though I hadn't signed up or read on any Mac/iPhone forums, I would have been well aware of IP5 issues like horrible maps and easy scuffing/scuffed right out of the box. This becaues there have been several articles about it in regular newspapers and on other web sites/forums I read. Just because the number of people complaining on this very forum is tiny compared to the total number of iPhones sold doesn't equal that nobody else have any problems. Many people will complain to friends, directly to Apple or the store they bought the phone from etc. , without posting it on this or any other tech forum. But just because there aren't more complaints here doesn't mean there aren't any. I can't believe that you don't realize that this and earlier issues have been "real" issues and problems, even for "normal" people, not reading this kind of forums. And I can't believe the extent that some of you to defend Apple saying these aren't real issues or that it's perfectly normal to get a scuffed product out of the box. No, it's not acceptable or normal to get a scuffed product out of the box regardless of the maker of it or the price and especially not when it comes to an Apple product when it's the most expensive phone you can buy and when Apple have made their best telling us all how stunning it is. For your information my IP5 was flawless from the box, but I still believe and understand that Apple have/have had quality problems with the IP5 that might hurt them in the future if they don't address it. To not be able to take that in you must be a pretty hardcore Apple fan with huge blinders on. |

I realized a lot of people thnk they have the flawless black iphone, but when I checked it for them, I found few small scuffs. There are some scuffs or scratches that are fairly small, you have to check really really carefully. I also noticed some paint issue, it is about 1mm. The paint is not finished perfectly, so even though the dot is in black color, but the shine looks differently. My guess is that something touched the paint while the black paint was being dryed. Apple really screwed up big time.
This Christimas I bought total 3 iphones, 2 in black, 1 in white. All 3 are purchased at 12/23. Both of the black color iphones have scuffs. I replaced with bestbuy 5 times, and still cannot get the perfect one. Right now I still have both black iphone with few scuffs on them. I think the bestbuy people almost put me on their black list and banned me from the store since I exchanged too many times. This really isn't my fault, the Apple's quality control really screwed up this time. Since I replaced so many times, I became an expert now on analyzing the phone out from the box. Even the white one has some scratches on them near the screws(next to the charging port). The scratches are in lines. They are actually dent in, you could feel it when you rub it. The scratches are different from the black ones, they are not at the edge. They look like the worker in China acidently scratched it when they put in the screws. I am fairly certain that a number of people vote for "flawless", didn't really check throughly or didn't notice, just because the persons near me also thought they got the flawless iphone black, but not until I find the scuffs for them. I think I am going back to bestbuy to return all of my iphone black ones and get the white ones. I will be staying away from the black ones for now until Apple resolve this issue on the 5S or something. Last edited by cpthk; Dec 25, 2012 at 06:45 AM. |

NO DEAL: So will Alexander Wang Just Do It — or not? Rumors began floating on Monday that Wang was collaborating with Nike (à la Stella McCartney and Adidas) after a tweet by Mediabistro's UnBeige went viral. "A reliable source," it read, "tells us that Nike is cooking up a major collaboration with fashion designer Alexander Wang." Both sides confirmed exclusively to WWD that nothing is in the works. But there was a hint of a spark to the smoke — the two had planned to partner up for spring 2011, but the project fell through. Nothing made it to market or will.

Hey guys, I have been lifting consistently now for around 5 months. Before that I've done a lot of combat sports and some occasional lifting, but I'm really getting into it now. It would be awesome to hear what you people think of my current workout routine and give me some tips.
I am 183cm (6ft) tall and weight around 79kg(176lbs). My goal is to add alot of more muscle and getting stronger overall and I don't mind bulking or gaining mass while doing it since it's really hard for me to gain extra weight anyways. Main focus on legs at the moment.
my routine is:
BB heavy squats 5x4-6 (add 5kg when +6RM)
heavy leg press 5x 6-10
leg extensions 6-12
calves 5x20
Deadlift 5x4-6 (add 5kg when +6RM)
BB T-Bar row 4x 6-10
close grip pull-ups with extra weight 4x6-12 OR neutral grip bodyweight 5 x until fatigue
front pulldown 4x10
seated cable row 4x6-10
Flat Dumbell press 5x4-8
Incline dumbell press 5x 6-10
1# Butterfly variation 4x 10
2# butterfly variation 4x 10
Cable iron cross 4x 10
calves 5x20
THURS: rest
Bar bicep curls 3 x 6-10
DB bicep curls 3 x 6-10
Preacher curls 3 x 6-10
Rope tricep pushdowns 3 x 6-10
Triceps pushdown 3 x 6-10
Skull crushers 3 x 6-10
BB Front squats 5x8-12
DB lunges 4x 8-12
BB/DB overhead press 4x6-10
BB rear delt row 4x 6-10
deltoid raise 3x8-12
calves 5x20
SUN: rest
+abs&calves around 3 times a week each. For abs I'm doing 4 exercises 3x15 each. Not doing BB presses at the moment since my shoulder hurts like a b**** if I try to go heavy on presses. Dumbell presses feel fine though.
every few months I'm away for the weekend so I skip the FRI & SAT workouts but I try to do LEGS / BACK / CHEST every single week no matter what's my schedule..
Any tips/improvements/advice much appreciated!

Tony Byrne oversees all of The Real Story Group's technology streams.
In 2001, Tony founded CMS Watch as a vendor-independent analyst firm that evaluates content technologies and publishes research comparing different solutions head-to-head. Over time, CMS Watch evolved into a multi-channel research and advisory organization, spinning off similar product evaluation research in various areas of Enterprise Content Management. As a result of this natural evolution, in 2010, CMS Watch became The Real Story Group.
Tony is the original author of The Real Story Group's Web Content Management research, a former journalist, and a 20-year technology industry veteran. Prior to 2001, he managed an engineering team at a systems integration firm. He now focuses his own research on Enterprise Community and Collaboration software, SharePoint, and Web Content Management.
During the last decade, Tony has advised clients such as the US Dept. of the Treasury, the American Association of Retired Persons, MBC Television of Dubai, The Canadian Cancer Society, and The Seattle Children's Hospital.
