Editor's note: Costa Allegra was sold for scrap in October 2012.
Costa Crociere -- the most global brand in the Carnival family of 11 cruise lines -- is not content simply on expanding in Europe with big new ships. The company embarked on a daring venture in China: an attempt to offer Asia cruises for Chinese travelers.
This long repositioning cruise to Italy was our third on the Allegra in 12 months, so we knew what to expect as far as the ship is concerned. ...continue

Consumers of popular lore and many adherents to contemporary sociological thinking believe that affiliation with a street gang is motivated, in part, by a desire to belong to the family the individual never had while growing up. Ostensibly, the gang offers support, sustenance, acceptance, and a structure that the youngster lacked at home. Gangs offer a hierarchy of leadership and a path of approval and success. In a highly structured gang, one can "earn" one's way and gain a sense of belonging, status, and power. Sociological determinists have contended that gang membership constitutes an understandable, even "normal," means of adapting to circumstances that are bleak, if not seemingly hopeless. If this were true, everyone who lives in an impoverished, decaying, and otherwise brutal environment would join gangs.
In nearly forty years of research and clinical practice, what has impressed me far more than the environment from which people come is how they choose to deal with whatever their circumstances are. In almost every instance of my interviewing a gang member, that person had siblings or neighbors living nearby who faced similar or even worse adversities and were confronted by the same temptations but chose to react differently. Though their family life was riddled with instability, poverty, and violence, they sought no comfort in the world of gangs. Contrary to what gang members tell others when held accountable, most were not coerced into joining gangs. They had to seek out other, usually older, youths and prove they could be trusted. Many gangs require participating in elaborate initiation rites so that the prospective member can prove that he is tough enough to merit acceptance. Not everyone in the neighborhood desires to belong. As one man remarked, 'Us kinds find each other."

Better screening
Computerized tomography, known as CT scans, can check the heart for calcium deposits and blockages, making it a potentially useful tool for risk-assessment and predicting heart disease, according to a new study from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center. The study found that 7 percent of people scanned needed to lower their LDL cholesterol levels because they were actually at a higher risk of atherosclerosis than previously diagnosed.
Perils of passive smoke
Does your spouse need more incentive to quit smoking? A new study from China finds that non-smoking women whose husbands smoked for at least five years had lower HDL cholesterol, higher LDL cholesterol and other blood changes that put them at higher risk for heart disease than nonsmoking women with nonsmoking partners. This study echoed previous research from Harvard Medical School, which found that children at risk for high cholesterol tend to have lower HDL levels if they grow up in homes where parents smoke. In fact, a review of multiple studies by the University of California estimated that secondhand smoke increases the risk of coronary heart disease by 30 percent ? almost as much as active smoking.

What Investors Can Learn in Global Disasters
BOSTON ( TheStreet) -- This weekend marks the three-month anniversary of earthquakes that ravaged Japan.
The disaster has long fallen from the front page of America's newspapers and top-of-the-hour broadcasts. It is not surprising that the tragic events have ceased to be top-of-mind -- American media (and consumers of it) have a notorious habit of leaping out of global coverage as quickly as they are to pile in. But there is another reason why we may not be talking much about Japan these days: the lack of drama.
|Things are still in crisis mode in Japan since a massive March 11 earthquake, but the nation's stoic, get-back-to-work approach has made its recovery matter-of-fact. Americans may have something to learn from Japan's reaction.
What can Americans learn from how Japan went about life in the aftermath of the tragedy? There are a few obvious lessons, one being that nuclear power plants need to be as "earthquake proof" as possible.Other natural disasters yield additional takeaways. A Senate hearing in September was devoted to "What the United States can Learn from the 2010 Chilean and Haitian Earthquakes." In January of that year a 7.0 magnitude earthquake struck Haiti, a country described by Sen. Mark Pryor, D-Ark., as "a very poor country with very primitive building codes and minimal response capacity." More than 230,000 people died in the disaster and another 300,000 were injured. The following month in Chile, an 8.8 magnitude earthquake led to tsunami warnings in 53 countries (including the United States). Despite the scale, only 521 victims were killed, with testimony giving credit to the precautions and emergency plans put in place by that government. At the Congressional hearing, experts weighed in on such topics as evacuation plans, the need for strengthened building codes and the logistics of mass shelter. "Our goal is to make an American response look more like the results of the 2010 Chilean Earthquake and less like those of the 2010 Haitian earthquake," Pryor said. "Many Americans may be tempted to think that the U.S. could never suffer an impact like that experienced in Haiti because of our many resources ... but I ask you to remember the days following Hurricane Katrina and think again." An alarming focus of the hearing, underscoring the need to learn from disasters abroad, is the New Madrid fault, which includes Arkansas, Mississippi, Tennessee Missouri, Kentucky, Illinois and Indiana. One hundred years ago, a quake along that fault caused damage up to 1,000 miles away. Today, the region is home to 43 million people, and a similarly sized quake would lead to more than $300 billion in direct economic losses. The U.S. could gain insight into pressing economic problems by learning from political upheaval around the world.

Flexpeaker: paper-thin speakers made from, well, paper
We reported on speakers made from paper and tin foil a few weeks ago, and now another company is showing off what they can do with some wood-pulp. Based in Taiwan, the Industrial Technology Research Institute has created their own version of paper-thin speakers, really just tweeters, called Flexpeaker. They'll be sold as 8.5-inch by 11-inch sheets for $20, but they'll be available in much larger sheets, even rolls, so you could wallpaper a theater with the stuff, use it in a car headliner, or as the speakers built into an ultra-thin TV.
The speaker is made by layering thin electrodes and a prepolarized diaphragm between two thin sheets of paper. Their first application, they hope, is to use the Flexpeaker in cars as soon as next year. Then, movie posters, with the soundtrack or movie trailer highlights playing as folks walk by.
Unfortunately, the frequency response is 500Hz to 200kHz, completely unacceptable for serious listening. Thin, indeed. But, for some commercial applications, or with a properly crossed woofer/subwoofer, the technology has promise. I just hope those movie posters waterproof. If not, it could be wet, soggy mess.

'We've used them. We've had them,' Dave Nonis said
Largely, the roster will look familiar to the one from last year, with most of the changes made to the blue line
There is hardly a shortage of blame to go around
For the Toronto Maple Leafs, the decision-making process could be a little more complicated since they could be buying and selling
Four days after he was named to the post, Dave Nonis opened his first training camp as Leafs GM on Sunday
Working on his own or with his former boss, Nonis assembled the core of the Canucks squad that came close to winning the Stanley Cup
While Nonis and Burke share more or less the same philosophy on building a hockey team, they are different people
NEW YORK — It appears that James Reimer's head and neck injury is worse than it appears. How much worse? Well, no one is really quite sure. The Toronto Maple Leafs said the goaltender does not have a concussion. But Reimer was placed on the injured reserve Thursday with concussion-like symptoms that the team still […]
As the general manager of the Toronto Maple Leafs, Brian Burke has heard it all. Insults, taunts, slurs — he takes them all with a grain of salt. But when a Toronto columnist criticized the GM's decision to visit the Canadian troops in Afghanistan on the same day that NHL free agency began last week, […]
ST. PAUL, Minn. — It's the trade that keeps on giving. The Toronto Maple Leafs received prospect Joe Colborne and a first-round pick when they dealt Tomas Kaberle to the Boston Bruins at this past season's trade deadline. As part of the deal, Toronto also received Boston's second-round pick in the 2012 draft when the […]

NHL, players' union set to meet at league offices
Bettman also reserved judgment when asked if progress was made.
"I think it would be premature for me to characterize it and not particularly helpful to the process," he said.
It is still possible this dispute eventually could be settled in the courts if the sides can't reach a deal on their own.
The NHL filed a class-action suit this month in U.S. District Court in New York in an effort to show its lockout is legal. In a separate move, the league filed an unfair labor practice charge with the National Labor Relations Board, contending bad-faith bargaining by the union.
Those moves were made because the players' association took steps toward potentially declaring a "disclaimer of interest," which would dissolve the union and make it a trade association. That would allow players to file antitrust lawsuits against the NHL.
Union members voted overwhelmingly to give their board the power to file the disclaimer by Wednesday. If that deadline passes, another authorization vote could be held to approve a later filing.

ST. PAUL, Minn. (WCCO) — President Barack Obama will be visiting St. Paul's recently-renovated Union Depot on Wednesday, and people had a chance Monday to get tickets.
The president is expected to announce a new competition to create jobs and restore infrastructure.
Jill Martin from Roseville came to the Union Depot on Monday to get tickets, and says it's a perfect location for the president's visit.
"Some of the money from the stimulus helped build this, so I think it's a good location for him to see what that money did for Minnesota and the Union Depot," Martin said.
President Obama is expected to speak around 2 p.m. on Wednesday. WCCO will carry this event live, and you can also stream it live on WCCO.com.

Hi Flip,
No politician, just a Television Engineer with a fondness for French and Italian wines. Given up Show Business (Big Time stuff, anyway), hiding out in flyover country...
A QUICK quiz. What do you think the European Commission has proposed, in the field of wine-making rules, to prompt the following response in France?
Here is Hubert Falco, a regional party baron from the French south, and junior minister, telling Le Figaro:
I'm disgusted. These technicians in Brussels really infuriate me. I am very displeased, because with these rules, our wine is going to become Coca-Cola.
Here is Charles Picard, a winemaker, quoted by the same newspaper:
It's shameful, these so-called Eurotechnocrats are treating us like amateurs. They shouldn't forget that when winemakers get angry, they turn violent when they have nothing to lose.
Blimey. Or tiens as they say in France. Is the EU proposing to force all French winemakers to assemble wine from grape concentrate? Will it now be forbidden for claret makers in Bordeaux to age their wine in barrels?
Um, no. Nobody is about to force anybody to do anything. Instead, the European Commission is asking national governments to approve a rule change, making it permissible for winemakers to produce cheap pink wine by blending white wine with red. It is probably not a route to great wine: the traditional way of making rosé involves allowing red grapeskins to macerate in the wine for a short while. But it will not be compulsory. The reason for the change is simply to allow European firms to compete with more industrial producers in South Africa and Australia, who do produce some of their pink wine in that way.
The outrage in France is revealing, I think, about attitudes to competition in the wine industry. It is all rather familiar to me from articles I have written on the wine sector. On the face of it, European winemakers say how proud they are of their artisanal traditions, and swear to defend them to the life. But offer them the temptation of making things in a cheaper, more industrial way, and they go all funny, as if it is inevitable that they will end up following suit. So you end up with winemakers demanding that cheaper methods be banned, so that nobody can use them. Where is their self-confidence? Their gumption? Their certainty that they will carry on making wine the right way, and market it as the real deal? It works with cheese, right? And bread?
The other oddity is that pink champagne is made by mixing a dash of red with regular champagne and nobody bats an eyelid.
I confess to whatever the lack of a vested interest is, in any case. I have never got the hang of pink wine. This is not snobbery, I just think it is usually not very nice to drink: too sweet and often oddly metallic. If there are pink wine fans out there with suggestions to put me right, I am open to recommendations.

Hi Flip,
No politician, just a Television Engineer with a fondness for French and Italian wines. Given up Show Business (Big Time stuff, anyway), hiding out in flyover country...
Charlemagne is a funny guy. I wonder if his next post will be on some anecdote on resistance to the spread of English in France, or maybe some twisted anecdote demonstrating just how nastily anti-American all French people are. Did he have particularly traumatic French grammar classes as a kid or something? Or a stern mother forcing him to finish his frogs' legs and garlic snails? One wonders. What all this does in The Economist though I have no idea.
Anyway, on this particular debate, as pointed out above the key issue is whether blended wine can be sold as "rosé" or not. Considering the huge efforts made by rosé producers to promote their wines, it's not abnormal that they are furious at the idea of allowing an entirely different and cheaper product to use the same name as their own wines... Hopefully a compromise can be found though, possibly by allowing blended wine as long as they are prominently labelled as such. Which would actually benefit the consumer who would be able to decide for himself if the traditional, more expensive technique is worth it, instead of being sold a "rosé" that is not really one.
As for the argument that if Australia and South Africa do it, then of course Europe should do the same to be able to compete, it's a fine one, but surely it should be balanced against the merits of the regulations themselves. Because otherwise, I remember from a trip to Belarus drinking "wine" made from grape juice with alcohol added, a method which is certainly a lot cheaper than the "traditional" one. Maybe Charlemagne would support allowing it in Europe too?
I believe white zin was originally a byproduct of creating bolder Californian Zinfandels. They would rack off some of the pink must to strengthen the grapeskin concentration. A decision was made to market the resulting stuff as "Blush" (copyrighted term, I believe).
I'm not an expert on this case but it seems to me that the reason why winemakers are angry is not that blending red and white will suddenly be allowed (there is nothing to prevent you from doing that today) but that the resulting product will be allowed to be branded as a rosé wine.
Over the past decade winemakers from Provence in particular have invested heavily in trying to move rosé upmarket. I understand their frustration that these efforts will be undercut by allowing what is a fundamentally different (and likely inferior) product to share the same name.
For the record I'm not a big fan of rosé either, although it can work well on a warm summer day if suitably chilled.
I suppose it's all a matter of taste, typingmonkey. Personally, I prefer Châteaneuf du Pape or a fine Shiraz. Of course, I don't drink wine that often. But, I enjoy a Blue Moon with an orange slice when drinking beer. Gin - Bombay Saffire. Vodka - Absolut, never Grey Goose. Not even chilled.
To add a few facts to Charlemagne's pamphlet against the French wine producers:
- As other comments mention, French wine producers indeed invested heavily to develop an upmarket rose wine market. Hence their anger at allowing a cheaper product to be marketed under the same name.
- The goal of allowing blends to be produced was to make it possible to compete with other (ie US, Australia) cheaper, blended products, notably on the Chinese market. So the wine producers would also find an advantage in the rule
- Seeing that the diretive project might well be voted, the French wine producers have already stated they would accept the blending of rose wine, provided it is clearly labelled on the bottle. Well, I hope nobody is against consumer information???
Crap! I Googled Burton Ison. Absolut-ly nothing. Switching to Yahoo, I found "MTV Icon: Janet Jackson (A tribute to Janet Jackson for her contribution to music, music video and pop culture)." Burton Ison received credit for "other."
Or, as Google claims, is the anonymous commenter actually "... Stepping into the spotlight: Indiana's Burton IS ON Clinton's case.(Rep. Dan Burton, new GOP chair, House Government Reform and Oversight Committee)"?
A problem that can crop up in competition - particularly in food and drink, where quality can be considered subjective and varies with taste - is an over-emphasized focus on price as a differentiator.
Price discrimination can create a very slow-moving, lobster-boiling scenario where price-sensitive folks at the bottom of the market choose the inferior product, resulting in a price rise for the better stuff due to loss of scale. This continues until decent product is actually substantially more expensive (and more laborious to obtain) than the average industrially-produced product available in supermarkets, but because of the slowness of the changes, the mass of the public is unaware of how they've been robbed of a better experience in food.
For example: I'm Irish, but I live in London, and I when I first arrived I had great difficulty finding something really simple but quite important: a reasonably priced, easily bought (i.e. non-artisan) tasty white sliced pan (loaf, to non-Irish folks). All loaves I tried from my local Tescos (much less my local corner shop) were horrible poorly-mixed over-aerated crap, with the exception of Warburtons medium slice, which was nicely fluffy and delicious on the one-third of days that it's fresh in the shop. And then I went to the US (northern California) and tried some of their bread: I was served an alleged "French roll", a soft-crusty non-bread the likes of which I have never seen in France.
My experience seems to have shown me that the average industrially-produced bread declines in almost direct correspondence with the amount of competition in the market.
So, I am understanding when I hear French food and drink producers complain like this. It's a relatively subtle and slow-moving process, but it's one to be wary of: food costs are a small fraction of total spending in the West, so reducing the price slightly doesn't have a high value, while the reduction in average quality comes at a cost that isn't realized by people until it's too late.
red and white? c`est degueulasse! qui peut boire ca!? Bruxelles doit arreter ses conneries! Absolutely disgusting! Like mixing some coca cola and Marmite. Eurocrats should be hang! they are useless, costly and extremely dangerous
there is something very civilised about pink wine,althogh made from special grape it looks and tastes like a cross between white and red. in ancient times you would be consider an alcoholic if you didnt add water to your wine (marc anthony was consider a such) or if you had it on empty stomach (hello soho!). i think the ancients would consider pink wine a tastful thing.
The two quotes are priceless. Some contributors seem to object to such French auto-mockery. One wonders why. Well done, Charlemagne.
The rule defining fair competition under the Bruxelles' doctrine seems to be :
"Any imitation you make is entitled to be marketed under the same wording as the original product."
And apparently, this rule applies even when the nature of the product is materially different; in the present case, the only characteristic declared relevant is the colour; for a wine it is far from sufficient.
Fairness would require that "rosé? be replaced by "mélangé? in French or "mixed" or "pink" in English (but not "light-red wine" which is the ordinary translation of "vin rosé?).
If you can characterize roses as "usually not very nice to drink...too sweet" you should probably not be the wine industry correspondent for the Economist. There are plenty of excellent roses out there that are as dry as a claret, and often more satisfactory for the occasion.
The nearly religious traditionalism of the French wine industry invites and perhaps deserves occasional mockery, but the great categories of wines, including roses, do not.
The funny part in the story is actually that France initially supported the directive project when there was a preliminary vote. At the time, Germany was against it. Later on, the wine producers reacted, triggering the change in the French position vote.
Very much the same way as the UK would protect its finance industry, or the Germans their car manufacturers.
I believe there is an important difference between pink wine and rosé. The article states:
"It is probably not a route to great wine: the traditional way of making rosé involves allowing red grapeskins to macerate in the wine for a short while."
Pink wine would not be produced the way normal rosé is, but through mixing red and white wine. I think the correspondent did just fine.
Matthieu123, by 'French auto-mockery' we mean 'unintended self mockery'. I wrote that the quotes contained 'auto-mockery'. You see, it helps to be French.
I'm informed that this particular skill requires a high degree of self-regard, an inflated sense of one's own importance, coupled with a degree of visual handicap and a reasonable level of deafness. So, there is no reason to believe that Charlemagne is qualified for such a task.
And what on earth is wrong with France? I have it from the best authorities that the goings-on there are quite hilarious. Aren't there some chaps going around today bawling: 'BLOQUONS LE PAYS!' What a jape!
@Jean-Paul Sartre
Auto-mockery is a lot of fun. It is when one makes fun of oneself, e.g.if Charlemagne made fun of Britain. I am impatient to read it.
Mockery is fun too, and Charlemagne practices it a lot, with a particular taste for France. I wonder though if it interests readers from all the 26 other countries. Agreeing with cedric g, I think we will soon have to rename this chronicle "from Charlemagne" to "Napoleon".
Got your back, Burt (flyover or otherwise). Carry on, Oh wayward soldier ...
No recommendations on white zinfandel, but Sir Anthony Hopkins once said, "I ate his liver with fava beans and a nice chianti."

How many times a day do you raise and lower your garage door? In addition to going up and down when you take the car out, it's also being put to work when the kids take their toys out to play, the family goes for a bike ride or the grass is being cut. Every time the opener is put to work, it wears a little more. Over time, it will simply stop working. It is an unfortunate result with all electronic components. When the repairs are going to cost more than a new system, it's time to invest in a new unit. With average use, you can expect your system to last about ten years, but there ways to extend its life and get a little more use out of it for the money.
Listen to Your Unit for Sounds of Struggling
When you raise and lower the garage entry, you should take notice of sounds that indicate the opener is straining. The sounds you are listening for could be grinding, rattling or anything else that isn't quite normal. It's important that you call for repair as soon as possible, and try not to use it while you are waiting for the service team. Binding springs could be causing the problem, or the system could simply be wearing out. The longer you continue using it without service, the more harm you are doing to the mechanism.
The Springs do the Work
You might think that the opener is the one doing all the work, but it's actually the springs that are raising and lowering your door. The opener gets it moving and controls the speed, but the springs are carrying the load. The entire system will work more efficiently if the door is properly balanced. When the balance is off in either direction, it won't take long for the entire system to wear down and stop working all together.
If you notice that the door balance is off, you will have to call for repair. An easy way to check the balance is to disconnect the machine when the door is down. Just pull on the red cord connected to the trolley to disengage the garage door opener. Manually raise the door to the halfway point. If it stays in place, the balance is in good condition. If it falls back down, the tension is too high. If it pulls up, the tension is too loose. Adjusting the springs can be dangerous if you are not familiar with this type of work, but your local repair professionals at Garage Door Service Guys have the tools and necessary skills to correct this problem.
Keep it Lubricated to Extend Serviceable Life
Extend the life of your garage door and opening system by keeping everything properly lubricated. All moving parts should be lubricated using a quality silicone based lubricant. This reduces the stress on the hinges, rollers, pulleys and even the individual spring system. You can also use a chain or cable fluid instead of the silicone lubricant. If the system has a chain, then you should also treat the chain to a protective layer. Belts should not be lubricated, but should still coat the other moving parts.
With the right maintenance, you can extend the life of your opener and avoid the need to call for repair. These are easy ways to save money now and over the coming years. If you do have to call in professionals for repair, ask them to show you how to maintain the system moving forward. With a little care, you can enjoy using your system for the next ten years and even into the decade beyond.
Share and Enjoy

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Sterne Agee upgraded Waddell & Reed (WDR) to "buy," increased its estimates and set an $80 price target. The firm noted the stock is down 15% from April highs and said solid organic growth can drive higher margins.
The stock was up 2.42% to $64.84 at 9:33 a.m. on Tuesday.

STOCKS TO BUY: TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified a handful of stocks that can potentially TRIPLE in the next 12 months. Learn more.---------- Separately, TheStreet Ratings team rates WADDELL&REED FINL INC as a "buy" with a ratings score of A-. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation: "We rate WADDELL&REED FINL INC (WDR) a BUY. This is based on the convergence of positive investment measures, which should help this stock outperform the majority of stocks that we rate. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its robust revenue growth, notable return on equity, expanding profit margins, good cash flow from operations and impressive record of earnings per share growth. Although no company is perfect, currently we do not see any significant weaknesses which are likely to detract from the generally positive outlook." Highlights from the analysis by TheStreet Ratings Team goes as follows:
- The revenue growth came in higher than the industry average of 5.2%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues rose by 22.9%. Growth in the company's revenue appears to have helped boost the earnings per share.
- The return on equity has improved slightly when compared to the same quarter one year prior. This can be construed as a modest strength in the organization. Compared to other companies in the Capital Markets industry and the overall market, WADDELL&REED FINL INC's return on equity significantly exceeds that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.
- 37.88% is the gross profit margin for WADDELL&REED FINL INC which we consider to be strong. It has increased from the same quarter the previous year. Along with this, the net profit margin of 18.98% is above that of the industry average.
- Net operating cash flow has increased to $88.94 million or 45.47% when compared to the same quarter last year. The firm also exceeded the industry average cash flow growth rate of 15.21%.
- WADDELL&REED FINL INC has improved earnings per share by 39.7% in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. The company has demonstrated a pattern of positive earnings per share growth over the past two years. We feel that this trend should continue. During the past fiscal year, WADDELL&REED FINL INC increased its bottom line by earning $2.96 versus $2.25 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($3.76 versus $2.96).

January of 2009 was the most successful to date, according
to the Santa Clarita Film Office, who overlooked more film days and reported a
higher economic impact for the month than any other January on record since the
office's inception in 2002.
The City of Santa Clarita
reported a total of 84 film days in the month, a 265 percent increase when
compared to January 2008 when the City hosted 23 film days. Location filming
for the month resulted in more than $2.3 million in economic benefit to Santa
Clarita businesses, compared to January 2008 when $367,500 in economic impact
was reported. The City of Santa Clarita Film Office
issued 25 permits in January 2009, compared to 24 permits in January 2008.
The Film Office attributes the dramatic increase in film
days to the steady base of local television production in Santa Clarita, which
currently includes HBO's "Big Love," CBS's "NCIS" and "The Unit," and Discovery
Channel's "Doing Da Vinci." And while the City of Santa
Clarita is proud to start 2009 on a strong note,
officials remain realistic about the coming months and what they will bring
with the still-looming SAG strike and weakening economy.
"We are thrilled to start 2009 on such a strong note," said
Mayor Frank Ferry. "Los Angeles'
film community, which includes Santa Clarita, is really taking a hit with feature films leaving for other states and countries
offering production incentives. However, Santa Clarita's ability to capture
television production has really offset the losses and declines most cities are
feeling in Southern California."
In addition to shows based in the City, several other
television shows, like "24," "Heroes," "House," "Wipeout," and "My Name is
Earl," regularly film on location in Santa Clarita. And in the month of
January, the City also hosted several small budget feature film days and
Location filming is an important part of the Santa Clarita
Valley economy, contributing an estimated $13.5 million in economic impact
locally in the first seven months of Fiscal Year 2008-2009, which runs from
July through June.
The City continues to market our valley as an ideal place to
film and credits its success as a prime film destination to Santa Clarita's
film-friendly neighborhoods and businesses, variety of locations, affordable
permit and location fees, close proximity to Los Angeles,
and access to talented industry professionals.
Santa Clarita businesses continue to make the area an ideal
place to work in the industry's "30-Mile Zone," an industry designation that
allows productions to save money on per diem and mileage, by keeping location
and rental fees competitive. The residential communities are also a big part of
the Santa Clarita Valley's success, with individual homeowners and
neighborhoods working hand-in-hand with productions to make filming happen,
even when it includes the occasional late hours and complicated scenes.
The City of Santa Clarita's
Film Office was created to help attract and retain the filming industry
including both location filming and film-related businesses. The office
currently issues permits for all location filming within the City ensuring that
there is a
minimal impact on residents and businesses, promotes the
City as an ideal place for the film industry to do businesses, and promotes the
Santa Clarita Valley as a great place for location filming.
The film industry is a major economic engine of the City's
economy, providing increased revenue for local programs through sales tax
revenue, and jobs for residents.

Unit Secretary pay rate??
- 0Jan 19, '04 by Pre-RNDoes anyone know of the pay rate for a unit secretary in the Charlotte area? Looking to work my way through ADN and gain some job related exp. Would prefer to do CNA, but it just doesn't pay the bills. Still plan to take the course and maybe do some weekend work just for the learning exp. I understand it will make a big difference for clinicals.
I'm guessing the pay is about the same, but I thought it wouldn't hurt to ask...
If you have any other info.... job details, other ideas, etc. I would really appreciate it.
Trying to figure out this whole changing careers thing has kinda got me going in circles. :spin:
- 0Jan 21, '04 by sandy06I was a UC at CMC-University for about a year - just PRN. I worked primarily nights and weekends and made about 10.25-12.00/hour. Not a lot more than a CNA . Now I am working as a CNA in the same hospital. I am getting more experience while in nursing school (not more money, but more experience.) Good Luck!
- 0Jan 25, '04 by Pre-RNI really appreciate the response. I'm still teaching (Spanish for 8 yrs. now) and need to make some decisions before the new contracts come out. I hope to find something where I can gain some experience while in school. However, since I haven't even started my pre-reqs., I realize that will be very difficult.
I'm looking to take some med. term., CNA, and anything else I can this summer in order to increase my chances. I did spend the summer working as an admit. clerk in the ER of a small county hospital many years ago... (Loved the job, but doubt it counts for much now) and I do have a BA (in F.L.--useful maybe but doubt it will seal the deal). I would like to take the next phlebotemy course (Aug.) and use that to the pay the bills through school. However, I need something to make it the eight or so weeks of the course and longer if I get stuck on a waiting list. Of course, if the first thing works out (like UC) than I'll stick with that instead.
I read a UC job description which only asked for "med. term." and must have passed the "test." Could you explain what "test" they mean? Is this some state cert. or something? Also, were you already taking nursing courses to be considered for this? Any details for how prepared you were, job description, etc. would also be appreciated. For instance, did they give you any training?
This is much longer than I intended, but I guess I'm looking for some "words of wisdom" from someone who has been there. I noticed in a previous post that you also changed careers. I'll be 34 :hatparty: in Feb. and my MOST supportive husband says now is the time if I really want to do it. We've been married for 11 yrs. and are VERY stable. Sadly, we are unable to have any children, but it does mean that I have more time and don't have to make those hard choices. In other words, I feel really good about my decision, it's just the particulars of making it happen that keeps me confused...Last edit by Pre-RN on Jan 25, '04
- 0Jan 27, '04 by sandy06My job as a UC was on the maternity unit and it was a lot of fun. I worked with amazing nurses who knew that I was a nursing student wannabe and they answered all my questions and let me watch procedures when it was possible. I, in turn, tried to help them when possible. Our unit had CNA's, but for some reason the hospital cut them back completely. I jumped up to help my nurses by stocking rooms and supplies, transporting patients, even helping feed babies in the nursery. It was an amazing experience and frankly the only reason I stopped was my boss. I am a soon-to-be 37 year old with 3 kids and a former career as a journalist. I was the same age as my boss, but I am starting all over as a nursing student. I am just finishing up my pre-req's for Presby's nursing school and will start there this August. I am a CNA and CPR certified for healthcare provider, and very ambitious. My boss did not share my enthusiasm and frankly I felt she was a bit put off by me ... anyway, I am now a CNA in the same hospital but on the ICU floor. I start that position in 2 weeks. I am looking forward to starting on that unit - I have talked to many CNA's that are graduating from nursing school soon and have spent many years on this unit. They again say the staff is amazing ... I am anxious to start learning.
As for your question about the "Test" ... I am clueless. I had taken a medical terminology class already, but it was not required for the position and I did not have to take any test other than a typing test for the hospital.
I took the position as a UC mainly to make sure I wanted to take the plunge to make this career change and once I started working it was a no-brainer. I am ready to get moving towards my RN. When I graduate, I will move to one of the hospitals in Presbyterian's network and leave the one I am currently employed at - the hardest part will be leaving the people, but I am sure it will be fun in the meantime.
Hope this helps, and feel free to email me if you want any more info.
- 0Feb 16, '04 by Pre-RNWow! Your timing is so funny....our school is out tomorrow for President's day and I had already decided to check in with you and see how the new job was going. I just know you LOVE it!
Life got very busy around here with grades due, parent conferences till late and family stuff too. Can't complain though, it's all good. Except my sweetie is sick this weekend. So I've been practicing my "nursing" skills...I'm most excellent at dosage calculations according to the Nyquil directions. Current careplan: Lots o rest, fluids, footrubs (doesn't help his headcold, he just likes it ) and keep him laughing so he forgets how bad he feels. So far, so good.
As to other news, I finally found an online med. term. course that starts Feb. 23rd. Oh and I called about the test and they said it just meant you needed to have passed the final exam for the course. This one is supposed to include some Spanish which I thought was very cool. It's one of those Ed2go courses offered through many schools around here. Have you ever done this? Kinda confused, since I found out that Southern Piedmont offers it for $60 and CPCC for $80. I mean, am I paying $20 for the school name? They both send you to the exact same website. Only thing I can see is that CPCC is older and more stable. Maybe less conflicts with obtaining grades, etc. but who knows? Plan to register tomorrow so I'll check into both. Which reminds me. You've been so kind to answer my questions and share your exp. that honestly, I have SO many more it just seems rude to ask them. But, here it goes...just quit reading when you get tired...
The current plan is the med. term., already studying for entrance exams, and want to do CNA, CPR, and possibly phlebotemy ASAP (figure the phleb. can't hurt and might pay for school, also great skill for a nurse, right?). Hopefully CNA & CPR over the summer (wish it were earlier), but next phleb. course seems to be in Aug. All of this depends on waiting lists, etc. of course.
This is the dilemma---Do I have or can I gain enough skills to secure a job making "close" to what I am now, so that I can change jobs? (BTW, totally retorical question, not expecting you to solve that one!) The way all the courses are scheduled, it seems like I'll end up teaching another year just to be safe. I mean I don't want to take a chance on causing a financial strain just as we are getting OUT of debt (Whoo-Hoo!) Sorry, have to do a cartwheel everytime I say that. It's ugly and things get broke, but it happens. This is the upside: I could stop commuting an hour each way (I actually teach in SC) and most importantly would be working IN healthcare. The exp. alone seems worth it. If I have to sign another contract I'll have the security of the same paycheck, but I also can't make any real commitment to moving forward for a year. I can see working FT in the summer and maybe PT during school (tough w/the commute and the extra hrs. teaching requires), but man I hate that drive! The deal is that I have to sort this all out and have a job lined up by late March/early April (when contracts come out) that I can't even start FT until the end of May. Just seems very unlikely someone will go for that.
So way too much thinking outloud....my current questions are:
Why did you choose Presbyterian?
Where did you take your prereqs?
Did you have to take any entrance exams for CNA, nursing school? How were they?
Do you know if the UC or the CNA job offer any benefits (esp. educational reinbursement) if your FT?
Ok, way too much babble, but I guess I don't post much, so when I do, it's a doosie! To anyone who took the time to read the whole thing----Thanks for listening!
Sandy, like I said, I feel guilty for abusing your kindness, but you're the only local person that responded and I just don't think the HR/recruiters would give me the time of day at this point. I like hearing about stuff from the folks livin' on the mtn., but where did all the local folks go? Feel free to ignore all this, but I insist on hearing how the new job is going and how you and your family are doing as well. Are the kids praying for snow tonight? How's school for you? Best wishes in ICU!
Not so confused....more perplexed...
- 0Feb 18, '04 by sandy06Hey there!! You sound soooo busy!!! I can relate ...
Anyway, I took the medical term class at SPCC and it was great ... I learned a lot, but you have to be disciplined to keep up. I am taking Psychology thru them right now. Then I have abnormal psych to take over the summer and then I am off to nursing school in August!
I got my CNA from Carolinas College of Health Sciences (CCHS) and I got my CPR for healthcare professional thru Lake Norman Regional Medical Center. Look on their website for schedules of classes - they don't run very often.
Ok, to answer your other questions ... I applied to Presby and to CCHS both and got waitlisted at CCHS and accepted at Presby. I actually wanted Presby more than the other because they have a 100% reimbursement plan for tuition. It means if you sign a contract promising to work for that hospital system (anywhere in the system) for 21 months (the same amount of time I will be in school) then they will pay for ALL of my tuition - not books, uniforms or supplies, but hey - that is ok with me. Any place that pays for my education and guarantees me a job is pretty cool. They are also building a beautiful hospital near me to be done just a few months before I graduate!!!
There are no tests to get into a CNA class (although they are hard to get into around here) or into either of the nursing schools. I had a BS degree from Syracuse University and many of my classes transferred. I took A&P 1 and 2 online, Med Term and Psych ...all through SPCC. Those were the only prereqs I was missing. Now I am off to nursing school and with the exception of my second semester, I won't have more than one class a semester (not counting clinicals...)
I start working on the ICU unit as a CNA next weekend. I have just finished all my orientation with the hospital and am really excited to start. But, I am a bit nervous. I am working PRN so I don't get any benefits, but if you are a UC or CNA that works full-time, then you are able to get great benefits through CHS. Give their human resources a call - or look on their website for job opportunities. Although, I actually called the nurse manager on the floor I wanted to work on and the job I was hired for never got posted. She agreed to put me on PRN - it might be worth cold calling to different folks if you can get names to see if they are in need of extra hands.
Good luck with everything and don't hesitate to email or ask!! Keep in touch!
- 0Feb 26, '04 by AladoshaHi Sandy!
I'm glad to find someone on this forum who will be going to Presbyterian SON soon! Congrats to you! I have some questions and unfortunately their website doesn't offer a lot of the info I seek.
I got accepted/waitlisted for their August 2004 class even though I applied for January 2005 class, go figure, lol! Got that corrected real fast. I was wondering why you took pre-reqs at CPCC and will Presby. accept them? The obvious reason seems cost. You can't beat $35.50 per credit hour vs $140 per credit hour at Presby. You got me thinking about taking psych. and sociology this summer at CPCC. It would definitely lighten the course load the first semester. Right now I work full-time. The plan is to save money this year, quit my job late fall to take Presby.'s CNA course, and work as a CNA while in school. By the way do you know if you could take the LPN exam after one year of nursing school? I've heard in some states you can, not sure about NC.
I wish Charlotte had an acclerated BSN. I have BSBA in finance and minor in biology. But I hear Presbyterian is a great school and I am excited to start there next year! I appreciate any information you can pass on! Thank you!
- 0Feb 27, '04 by sandy06Melissa - congrats!
I am very excited to start at Presby. I have a BS degree in Journalism and since I have 3 kids and other jobs, I just don't have time to be in school full-time so that is why I am taking pre-reqs before I get there. I am actually taking mine at South Piedmont CC in Polkton, NC, but all of my classes are online. I am in Psych right now and only have behavioral to take this summer and then I am done with everything except nursing classes. Cost was one consideration, but time is the biggest. I got my CNA from Carolinas College of Health Sciences and I did it in an evening class. Now I am working at University Hospital on their ICU. I also got my CPR for the healthcare provider through Lake Norman Reg. Med Ctr. It was one evening class that lasted about 4 hours. Presby has a great program and they just linked up with Queens University so our class (Aug. 2004) will be the first to get an Associates of Nursing from them. I want to start working full-time when I graduate and then get my BSN online and there are a variety of places that offer that. That is my plan - in a perfect world ... but thankfully it seems to be working so far. Feel free to drop me a note or email me - I'll answer any questions!!! I look forward to meeting and studying with you at Presby!!!

Ok , the reason Im writing this is because I want a "pocket gun" always have wanted one ,unfortunately there have only been .22,.25,.32,and .380's available , until recently , yes the pf9 has been a round a few years but not until now has there been any real 9's available , mainly I wanted a pocket carry for the summer months , and then came the dilemma of finding the right gun , yesterday I shot the db9 ,lc9,lcp,SW bodyguard,Sig p238(a few 380's) ,Sig p290 Keltec Pf9 , didnt get to shoot the Kahr or Kimber , not sure who else makes these guns (rorhbah 9 not available) , with this list it was easy to come up with a winner the LC9 was the best in handling ,style,shooting , and price (for what you get) , the only thing that concerned was its alittle too big for the pocket , I mean it will work , but I noticed the kimber and Kahr and the DB9 fit better in the pocket , I also have a second use for this gun , When winter comes I dont really need a pocket carry I can have my .45 or any number of .40's that I have , however , Ive been seriously thinking ankle holster for these guns as well! And anyone who has carried and ankle holster knows you dont want a boat anchor on your ankle ! Which with these guns is perfect !
I realize these will hardly get shot , my main concern is "the moment of truth" will this lil 9 fire! It gives me a chance to flee the area basically , where as my G22 or Colt 45 will not only not flee the area but will finish the job !!

Good to hear! Thanks guys! Miso soup is exactly what i was thinking!
Theres already a lot of krausen. It almost covers the entire surface. A good 80%. Its about an eighth inch high.
What is cold break?
Also, yes rehydrated for 15 min.
The wiki is your friend:http://www.homebrewtalk.com/wiki/index.php/Cold_break
looks fairly normal....the funky spongy clouds of stuff will settle out
Thanks guys for the posts!!!
A lot of the clouds have settled out, some are moving around! Very neat to watch in this clear carboy. Solid krausen. Here is a picture from about 9 hours later.
I took this one about 10 minutes ago.
Which is about 20 hours after pitching.
I do have an update question.
Because I added honey, should I leave it in the fermentor for 3 weeks instead of 2?
Also, while I'm thinking about it, I did have a boil over... will that hurt this noticeably?
I boiled the water, then removed from heat, added the DME, then brought back to a boil. Wasn't paying close enough attention, and it boiled over.
The boilover won't affect your fermentation. Just makes a mess to cleanup(been there, cleaned that)
The added honey won't significantly extend your total fermentation time. Having said that, leaving your batch in primary for 3 weeks, if you can, is generally a good thing.
Cool. Thanks Jim.
It was BAD. I couldn't move the pot to clean it while I was boiling, so I just left it for the full 60 min boil...
I had to scrub for about 20 minutes to get that gunk off of my stove top
Worth it.
If you happen to have a glass top stove you can use a razor blade to scrape off the real tough stuff.
Also, your beer looks great! I have almost zero experience, but I'm still pretty sure that's a very nice start.
You're going to cover that thing to block out incoming light, right?
Sadly, no. Its a white painted top stove.
I have access to a burner that uses a propane tank that I may use next time... would get it hotter faster... I don't know, I'll do more research.
Thadius, yeah man! Its tucked away in a closet in a part of the house we never use. I was only open for pictures, and now it is in pure darkness for 3 weeks.
I only open it when I'm changing out those frozen 2-liter bottles, and I only do that before the sun comes up, or after it sets, and I use an LED flash light.

Here is the story from the other side; it serves as a needed corrective to the ubiquitous Eurocentric point of view.
This history deals with the twenty-year period between 1880 and 1900, when virtually all of Africa was seized and occupied by the Imperial Powers of Europe. Eurocentric points of view have dominated the study of this era, but in this book, one of Africa's leading historians reinterprets the colonial experiences from the perspective of the colonized.
Johns Hopkins University Press
"A valuable overview of the colonial period in Africa by one of the most distinguished Afrcian historians. " Philip D. Curtin, The Johns Hopkins University
Here is the story from the other side; it serves as a needed corrective to the ubiquitous Eurocentric point of view.
I was required to read this book for an Africa and the World course. I found it extremely hard to read. I am a fairly avid reader and this is so dry and boring. It is worse than a text book. <BR/>The majority of the book is about how all the different European countries (mainly Britain and France) carved up Africa to exploite its people and resources. Boahen also talks about about the different African revolts and rebellions. Also, he talks about the African people's demand for a reformed government and reform in all aspects of everyday African life (education, social organizations, etc...).Was this review helpful?
