A thoughtful article by Steve Cheney. This point was particularly interesting:
New frameworks for devices to interact with the physical world have arrived and will further Apple's lead. These are important to the growth of the platforms. These include BLE, iBeacon, NFC and other areas adjacent to discovery and the purchase funnel. These short range technologies (when made developer-friendly through APIs) allow phones to connect with the nearby world (the 'edge' or last 50 feet), much like GPS allowed phones to connect with the outdoor sky 10 years ago. This short range RF stack is maturing rapidly, but it's still a little bit like GPS was 5-10 years ago. Back then the apps sucked—remember the first Garmin device you had to plug in to your cigarette lighter, which had no real apps or expansion capability? Or the first time you used maps on a Nokia series 40 phone? The applications were bad, the devices sucked, and the developer tools were non-existent. Now every single app you download uses location and you can get a car delivered to your house in 5 minutes, all enabled by GPS.
It took years for GPS to become widespread, but it has changed how we live. Seems clear that near-field discovery and communication will do the same.

you must have ben a dang good boy this year ! cool present for sure !
Most heads of that size will have the studs threaded into the ports. To fix that after dissassembly torque and mark all of the rocker studs, then take a grinder and smooth down the protrusion, then disassemble, clean, and reassemble exactly as they were marked. As you said it's not a huge deal, but all it takes is a little time and leads to a more complete job. I commented on another photo of yours, when you disassemble them I would REALLY appreciate measurements of the pushrod pinch and the throat on the valve seats. Also, anything you may find on the valve seats them selves and valve fitment. |
I also purchaced a set of pro comp heads for what its worth ,RUN DONT LOOK BACK .i tried installing these i had to buy their extanded studs /my ARP would not go thru head drilled wrong . had to have remachined and buy londer head bolts,after i got them bolted on Intake would not align ,had to redrill an helicoil and angle cut to make intake fit,then exaust bolt holes only 5 were drilled deep enough to get bolts in ,naturally i had to drill tap & heli coil all to be sure ,i finally have the heads installed after buying longer pushrods had to biy 100 longer exaust and 250 longer intake because heads poor casting ,in process of pulling and replacing with Trick Flow --A direct drop on no problems ,hope you have better luck than i did . click on pro comp complaint site Before you install you might be able to return them mine are Big block chevy
I will try to get some really good pictures of the ports. once i take the valves out. Might be after the holidays once i get a change. What do you want me to measure? The pushrod clearence. The pockets all look like they have plenty of room. Just tell me or show me what you need measured i will get you a measurement. |
Also, on the throat, I was wanting to know the inside diameter of the throat below the valve seat- that will also give some insight as to what RPM they'll stall at. |
Changing push rod length is not un common the higher performance heads usally need new push rods. It is also common for different sizes on intake and exhaust with BBC. These heads were not from procomp they are pro comp castings built up by a machine shop that focuses on heads. They use all these own hard stuff and put them together right. Hopefully they will work without issues. |
Got all kinds of mics and calipers. |
I guess i just got a bad set ,its not that the pushrod holes were to small ,but that the rocker stud boss was misaligned which made pushrods on one head set about 30 degree angle on 3 pushrods the other was not as bad but still requured machine work ,I might be expecting too much for a cheap head ,I run brodix on all my raceing engines ,but this for my personal truck -street driven, scroll all way to bottom af this page look at pro comp remarks Again Good luck with youre build

Yesterday, Eric made me cry. We've never really been big on celebrating Valentine's Day, but Eric asked what he could do to make this Valentine's Day special for me. He said he knows how hard things have been lately, and that he really wanted to make sure I feel cherished and appreciated. I immediately burst into tears, because I SO needed to hear that.
We're keeping it simple, sushi for lunch, and a movie. Just knowing he's thinking of me and wants to spend time with me is all the special I need.
I am also whipping up a batch of these lovely Dark Chocolate Almond Strawberries to show my love for him. These strawberries are really beautiful, and a simple way to dress up the traditional chocolate covered strawberries that are so popular for Valentine's Day.
I like to use leftover almond meal from making homemade almond milk, but you can also just chop some almonds by hand or in a food processor. Make sure that if you go the food processor route, only pulse the nuts a few times. Too long and you'll end up with almond butter!
My littlest Valentine is getting strawberries too, but his are plain, and cut into little hearts.
Oh, he just melts my heart!
I made another adorable variety of chocolate dipped strawberries for SheKnows. Check out my Strawberry and Tomato Love Bugs for a fun sweet or savory Valentine's snack for your kiddos.
If you're looking for breakfast options for Valentine's Day, I've got some cute healthy heart shaped cranberry muffins, and these gorgeous pink strawberry waffles!
Hope you and your family have a lovely Valentine's Day. Hug someone you love!

- Place a skewer or toothpick into the stem end of each strawberry. Dip the strawberry into the chocolate, and then the almonds.
- Stand strawberries up by poking the other end of the toothpick into something (I used a piece of styrofoam). You can also lay them on a parchment lined plate.
- Let sit at least 20 minutes to harden.

Fee Remission
Since most GSR, GSI, Reader and Tutor positions within the economics department are at least 25%, a partial fee-remission comes with the position. A partial fee-remission, for CA residents and non-professional school students, waives all fees except for the class-pass fee (currently about $60) and the Berkeley Campus fee (currently about $200). Non-resident tuition (NRT) and professional fees are never waived as part of a GSI, Reader and Tutor position. Only GSR positions offer the possibility of a full fee-remission, including a NRT-waiver.
Please see the Graduate Division Fee Remissions webpage for further information on fee remissions. And for a current breakdown of fees, go here.
Pay Rates
Pay rates for GSIs are based on how many semesters you have worked as a GSI in the past.
- 0-4 Semesters = Step 1
- 5-6 Semesters = Step 2
- 7+ Semesters = Step 3
Current pay rates for GSIs can be found at the Human Resources website. Pay is determined by multiplying the percentage of your appointment by the monthly wage rate listed.
Readers and Tutors are paid at an hourly rate and must submit timesheets each month. Current pay rates for Readers and Tutors can be found at the Human Resources website.
Pay rates for GSR's are based on a step system, with the step of the appointment at the employer's discretion. Current pay rates for GSR's can be found at the UCOP Academic Personnel website.

"Don't cross your eyes. They'll get stuck that way."
"Don't swallow the watermelon seeds, or a watermelon will grow in your belly."
We've all heard them, and many of us have repeated them, I'm sure. Did your parents tell you silly things that you may have believed at the time? Did you tell the same things to your own children?

New York City Faces A Taxi Shortage
Unable to find gas, cab drivers are planning to take the day off. New Yorkers' post-hurricane commute is about to get worse.
Mohammad Islam, a veteran New York City cab driver, pulled up to a stoplight in Midtown Manhattan on Thursday afternoon and yelled to a fellow cab driver.
"Hey, where's the gas?"
The other driver laughed. "No gas, nowhere."
As New York City residents, many still without electricity and hot water, try to get back to work in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, they will soon be faced with a new problem: a dwindling number of yellow cabs.
With the subway still not operating in lower Manhattan and commuters facing long lines for buses, New Yorkers' reliance on cabs has become even more significant this week. During the morning and evening rush hours on Thursday, there was a person flagging down a cab on seemingly every street corner. And on Friday, those cabs may no longer be there.
"The city will be almost empty," Islam predicted, mentioning that his tank would only last him until midnight. "No taxis."
"If we can't find gas, we won't work tomorrow," Simone Nunez, who has been driving yellow taxis for the past five years, said on Thursday, echoing what several cab drivers told BuzzFeed.
Nunez, who lives in the Bay Ridge section of Brooklyn, usually fills up at the end of his shift and hands the cab off to his partner in SoHo, but they've had to abandon their regular routine with the subway shutdown leaving him with no way of getting home.
"I'm worried right now," Nunez said. "I'm about to go home and hand off to my partner and there's only half a tank."
At the BP gas station where Nunez usually does the handoff, pumps stood wrapped in yellow "CAUTION" tape. A station attendant named Osas explained that there was no way to pump gas without electricity.
"To the best of my knowledge, they're out of gas all over Manhattan," Osas said, adding that stations either couldn't pump gas because there was no electricity or because they were running out. "The guys that drive the yellow taxis, they say there is no gas in Brooklyn, no gas in Queens."
"Everyone's hungry for gas," Raj Bhuiyan, an attendant at another BP gas station in lower Manhattan, said, explaining that his location is "mostly for cabbies."
(Even though their stations couldn't pump gas, Osas and Raj were at work on Thursday to stand guard against potential looters through the night).
Many cab drivers spent much of the day Thursday driving around New York City in search of gas.
"I spent half the day looking for gas," Joseph, a veteran cab driver who lives in Queens, grumbled as he drove up the FDR Drive, along a stretch that had been completely flooded by the hurricane.
Joseph spent two hours waiting in line at a Hess station in Queens, only to have police officers inform him that the station had run out of gas. He finally filled up his tank at a station in the Bronx, after waiting for nearly three hours.
Malik Awan, another cab driver, was able to fill up his car on Wednesday night at a gas station near Shea Stadium in Queens, but only because he's a friend of the owner. According to Awan, he was the last car to fill up at that station.
"I don't know if I can work tomorrow," Awan said. "There's no gas at any gas station…and no supplies coming in."
"If there's no gas delivering to the stations and no power," Osas, the BP attendant, pointed out, "it's going to be very difficult to get a taxi."
As rush hour traffic hit Columbus Circle Thursday evening, Menzi, a cab driver who had waited in line at 2 a.m. for gas that morning, decided that he wouldn't be coming into work on Friday.
"I only have a few gallons left," he explained. "Tomorrow, I stay home."
Watching cabs inch along a closed Central Park, Menzi sighed.
"It's really bad."

Information for Instructional Leaders
Blackboard Courses All professional curriculum required courses during instructional periods 1-11 will be renewed automatically. Please contact Stephanie Bossaller regarding course creations or renewals for other professional curriculum courses. All stand-alone graduate courses should be renewed directly by the course coordinator, feel free to contact Stephanie if you have any questions or need assistance.
Examinations and Examination Schedules Please contact Stephanie Bossaller to schedule ALL examinations (electronic and paper) at least two weeks prior to the start of an instructional period to assist you in coordinating all your testing needs. A testing period has been designated in the College from 7-8:50AM and attempts will be made to schedule during this time.
Students should be made aware of dates and times of exams on the first day of class. These requirements are necessary to plan for and administer tests of appropriate length to those students with ADA accommodations and who are allowed additional testing time. Except for makeup examinations, tests should be of the same format for all students UNLESS there is an accommodation recommended by the Office of Disability Services. If you have questions regarding this matter, please contact the Associate Dean for Student and Alumni Affairs (ADA representative) or the Associate Dean for Academic Affairs. Stephanie will work with the course coordinates to schedule all ADA students.
Due to Federal regulations, examinations must be returned in a way to prevent public disclosure of a test score. AS SUCH, you should not post grades in public or return tests in mailboxes unless they are returned in a sealed envelope or folded and stapled to prevent inadvertent disclosure of information. Please consult the following site on FERPA regulations if you have any questions: http://registrar.missouri.edu/policies/ferpa.php
Computer-based tests All CVM electronic exams and quizzes are given in Blackboard using a special LOCK DOWN Browser – exclusively available on the machines in the Histology Lab (W-240 Vet. Med. Bldg.), the Computer Lab (W-234O) and our smaller secure Testing room (W-216). This browser prohibits running other programs, copying, pasting and printing while taking an exam.
Allowing the students to see their raw scores and answers is not mandatory and up to the discretion of the instructor. An instructor may allow this immediately after an exam or may schedule a review session (proctored by the instructor) for the class after the exam has been validated. Due to time and space constraints, individual appointments with Stephanie Bossaller can no longer be utilized for student test review. The session may be scheduled in the computer and/or histology laboratory.
In order to allow adequate time for online exam assembly, instructor(s) review for edits and testing before being fully prepared for students, all exams and quizzes will need to be submitted 5 full working days before the exam is given and in the correct format (see reference guide). A proof for instructor edits will be made available 2 days before the exam is given, so any adjustments can be made if necessary. If this deadline is not met or the formatting is not correct, the exam WILL NOT be available for online delivery and the course coordinator will need to make other arrangements and give a paper exam.
Formatting Instructions for CVM On‐line Exam Material Submission
Response Clickers All veterinary students in instructional period 1-11 are issued a Turning Technology response clicker. These are distributed (free of charge) to the incoming class during the first week of classes.
Incorporating clicker use in your class can be very useful and allow you to direct the lecture based on the understanding of the material being presented. The HRACC, Auditorium and Histology lab are set up with permanent receivers. Here are some helpful links to get started:

If you have graduate students in your course and plan on using clickers contact Stephanie Bossaller to make distribution arrangements.
If you have any questions or would like to one-on-one help incorporating this into your class or are interested in checking out clickers for departmental meetings, seminars and/or special events. Please contact Stephanie Bossaller.

George just got in, and it was so neat that he could sneak into bed, where Jenna had crawled up beside me at some hour of the night, as usual, and it was just time for her to get up. So he started talking to her and playing with her little ears. She sleeps like he does. Hard. Once she finally falls asleep, when she's intent on sleeping, she will sleep through anything. Comes from having a bedroom above George's studio, with late-into-the-night recording sessions, bass drum booming, and there's Jenna, content and sound asleep.
So anyway, she finally starts to stir and I say, "I wonder when Daddy will be home." and he says "I don't know" and she finally catches his voice in her dream and bolts upright--DADDY!!!--and leaps onto his chest, into his arms.
What a great way to greet the day.
February 26, 2003
George is back!

Major Holders: Mohn Family (19,1 %), Bertelsmann Stiftung (77,6 %), Reinhard Mohn Stiftung and BVG-Stiftung (3,3 %).
After the Second World War, Mohn's politically unladen son Reinhard takes over the tarnished book- and church publisher and turns it into the world company of today. The recipe of success: So-called 'reading rings', which offer books as well as in-house encyclopaedias and atlases at low costs through a subscription system. The club business model also appeals to foreign markets. By mid 1950, Bertelsmann enters the record business with the acquisition of Ariola.
The step-by-step purchase of the Hamburg newspaper company Gruner+Jahr (completed in 1972) propels the company to the top of the German media industry. Under the direction of Bertelsmann, Gruner+Jahr becomes the first major German publisher to engage in business with foreign countries und buys the complete 'New York Times' newspaper group as well as further economy titles ('Fast Company', 'Inc') in 1994. By June 2005, the publisher makes an unexpected turn by announcing its withdrawal from the US industry.
Bertelsmann gained international recognition due to a double deal in New York 1986: The acquisition of traditional New York publishing house Doubleday and music giant MCA. Intermittently, that is, before merging with Time Warner in 1989, Bertelsmann was the largest media company in the world.
The company also took on a pioneering role in German commercial television: Founded in 1984, commercial TV station RTL becomes the market leader in Germany in 1993 and goes on to become Europe's biggest advertising medium.
Following the company's involvement in AOL by 1995, it started investing in the Internet at an increasing rate, for example the development of the US Internet bookshop Barnesandnoble.com and the respective European counterpart, BOL. In order to ensure the ability to offer the highest possible array of content for e-commerce, which was particularly promoted by CEO Middelhoff (1998-2002), Bertelsmann buys New York publisher Random House and the majority of the academic publisher Springer-Verlag in Heidelberg.
In early 1999, Bertelsmann drops out off German Pay TV (Premiere) and focuses on Free TV: Over the course of subsequent years, the company acquires the production businesses of Pearson and Fremantle, Cologne TV station Vox as well as a 47 percent share of news channel n-tv.
Furthermore, Bertelsmann purchases music company Zomba Records in 2002. The sales of AOL Europe shares (50 percent) and technology company Mediaways (100 percent) result in high one-off gains.
Middelhoff's successor, Gunter Thielen in turn got rid of several Internet activities, consolidated the business (Fusion of BMG and Sony) and bought the US DVD sales club Columbia House. A new gravure printing company unites the activities of Bertelsmann, subsidiary Gruner+Jahr and junior partner Axel Springer AG.
The company from Gütersloh aspires to reach at least a 10 percent yield of sales. This secures Bertelsmann's top spot within the worldwide media industry and enables the company to offer investors a 15 percent interest rate on their participation certificates. This tight calculation permits ongoing additional purchases and mergers – occasionally bordering very close on the antitrust law.
The centre of power: Bertelsmann Verwaltungsgesellschaft
Bertelsmann is operated via the Bertelsmann Verwaltungsgesellscaft (BVG) (Bertelsmann Management company), in which 100 percent of the votes are bundled. A steering committee is installed at the top, made up of three members of the Mohn Family and three elected members from outside the family.
Hartmut Ostrowski was made the CEO in 2008. It became apparent three years ago, that Bertelsmann was still very much in the hands of the family. Five days after Ostrowski's vocation, Bertelsmann announced the reduction and reshuffle of the BVG. The company's CEO was eliminated from the BVG; the number of BVG associates was reduced from eight to six. The principle idea that members of the board and supervisory board would be represented in the BVG by virtue of their respective office was abandoned. Neither Hartmut Ostrowski's person nor office had been the particular reason for the change, yet the new regulation still signified a loss in power. Through the reduction, the family was reinforced and the CEO weakened. This might have been the result of the Mohn family's prior conflict with Middelhoff: Not the manager, but the family runs the company.
The Owners: Mohn Family
Reinhard Mohn: Farewell to the Bertelsmann patron
Reinhard Mohn, who established Bertelsmann amongst the world elite after the Second World War gave up the managing directorship in 1980. He died in October 2009 at the age of 88 years. He did not make an appearance as head of the company in the years prior to his death, but no substantial decision would be made without his agreement. Suffering from poor health, Mohn was primarily counselled by his wife Liz.
Christoph und Brigitte Mohn: The children, who inherit the company
In 2003, during a book launch, Liz Mohn was announced to become the family's spokesperson at Bertelsmann. She put her children, Christoph and Brigitte into more decisive positions, resulting in Johannes Mohn being forced out of the company.
During an extraordinary general meeting in December 2007, Brigitte Mohn was elected to the board of the Bertelsmann AG. She had already taken over her mother's managing directorship at the Stiftung Deutsche Schlaganfallhilfe (SDSH) in 2001. In 2005, she became a board member of the Bertelsmann foundation and has also been an associate of the BVG since 2002. Mohn studied politics, history of the arts and German, graduating at the private University of Witten/Herdecke. She completed a MBA course at the management college WHU Koblenz and at the Kellogg Institute USA. She worked at the Institute of Global Economics in Kiel, at US publishers Bantam, Doubleday and Dell in New York as well as McKinsey and the multimedia agency PixelPark.
Christoph Mohn: The 'European Google' gives up – The end of Lycos
Christoph Mohn, CEO of Lycos and Bertelsmann heir, supports the notion that one shoulders a great responsibility as an entrepreneur. He was adopted together with his siblings Brigitte an Andreas by Reinhard Mohn, being almost of an adult age. He internalized the decentralist leadership philosophy of his father Reinhard. Christoph Mohn studied marketing in Münster, worked for the Bertelsmann Music Group (BMG) in New York and Hong Kong and at McKinsey. When he was looking to make Bertelsmann's Internet activities fit for the stock market, he himself invested millions in Lycos. The owners made him CEO. Back in the day, Lycos was considered the second AOL, able to generate revenues in the range of billions for Bertelsmann – it would also be the deed that would pave his way to the board of directors.
Spurred by the initial public offering in 2000, which earned Lycos about 700 million Euros, Mohn began to purchase other companies and envisioned gigantic company headquarters. Back then, the stock was oversubscribed 33 times – and that is when the Internet bubble burst. Lycos is history by now and profitable parts of the company, such as the domain business, were sold off to Denmark; at least, the investors obtained 50 of the remaining 130 million Euros. Since going public, Lycos has wasted half a billion Euros. '"Lycos had no chance against Google", such was the statement by Christoph Mohn.
The Bertelsmann Foundation
Founded in 1977, the organisation looks to secure company continuity on the one hand and future projects in the fields of media, social policies, international communication culture, education and health on the other.
In its heyday, Bertelsmann was shaped and influenced by the Evangelic revivalist movement and of a deliberately conservative alignment. The remainder of this spirit rests in the Bertelsmann Foundation through which the company engages on the socio-political sector. It is both used to cultivate the climate of opinion and establish contacts with high-ranking politicians. The result of the efforts is a positive and liberal image, which has been associated with Bertelsmann for years.
In early 2008, it was announced that former Bertelsmann CEO Gunter Thielen would take over the chairmanship of the German Bertelsmann Foundation, after five and a half years at the top of the company. "It is my primary goal to ensure the high credibility of the company. We are also looking to become more international and address the consequences of globalisation more than it has been done before.", thus Thielen informed the world. He was also voted the new chairman of the board of directors in 2008.
Business Fields
Bertelsmann is involved in the RTL Group with 89,8 percent (RTL, RTL2, Super RTL, VOX, NTV, amongst others) through the RTL Group Verwaltung- und Holding GmbH. The group expanded its portfolio to 42 TV and 32 radio stations in ten countries, as well as approx. 30 production companies in 40 countries. With more than a 29 percent share of the total revenue, RTL is the most important 'cash cow' within the company's media division (2007).
Furthermore, new stations in the Netherlands and Russia were established in 2007. By the end of the same year, production company Fremantle Media announced the launch of a cinema production subsidiary in Germany (Ufa Cinema). Also in the same year, the RTL Group cast off their shares of the Portuguese Media Capital and took over the Talpa Media Holding from John de Mol in the Netherlands and the country's leading radio station, TV sports licensees, shows and series. In Return, Talpa Media was awarded a minority interest in RTL Nederland. In Russia, the RTL group entered the cable and satellite television market through a joint venture.
Since 2006, TV shows are being distributed through the video-on-demand platform 'RTL NOW'. RTL has been offering free music video downloads from Universal and Sony BMG on the in-house website Clipfish since April 2007.
Direct Distribution
Direct Group's core businesses are the book and music club as well as online shops by Bertelsmann: 35 million members in 24 countries. In 2007, Bertelsmann announced to look into a possible sale of the Direct Group due to a decline in sales. The sale of the American book club business on the other has already been decided on.
The club in Germany and the equivalents in France and Spain are working profitably. Following the purchase of book trader chain Betrant in Portugal and its integration into the company, the Direct Group disposed of the complete value chain from publishing to the distribution via clubs, Internet and stationary retail. Under the same name, the development of a book trader chain was started in Spain in 2007.
Bertelsmann had sold its music publisher BMG Music Publishing to the Universal Music Group in 2006. In August 2008, Bertelsmann sold its 50 percent share of Sony BMG (and the joint venture partner Sony),. It seemed as if Bertelsmann was retreating from the music business. One year later, Bertelsmann contracted a joint venture with the financial investor KKR in the field of music rights markting (BMG Rights Management). In September 2011, BMG Rights Management bought the music publisher Bug Music. Bertelsmann plans to own the whole company BMG Rights Management.
Publishing house Gruner+Jahr (G+J) from Hamburg, founded in 1965, employs 14,941 people (2008), publishes magazines, newspapers and operates websites in more than 30 countries. Magazines Stern, Geo, Capital, Neon and Brigitte being the most successful titles in Germany. The publisher is active in other European countries too as well as in Russia and China. The publishing house generates about 54 percent of its turnover outside of Germany (2008). The Bertelsmann SE & Co. KGaA hold 74.9 percent of Gruner+Jahr and 25.1 percent belong to publishing family Jahr from Hamburg.
Since the departure of British media company Pearson in 2008, G+J has been the sole shareholder of Financial Times Germany. Furthermore, the publisher holds shares of the Dresdner Druck- und Verlagshaus (incl. Sächsische Zeitung, Dresdner Morgenpost – 60 percent), the Spiegel publisher (25.25 percent), the Motor Presse Stuttgart (59.9 percent) and the Gravure Print-Joint-Venture Prinovis. Gruner+Jahr's chairman of the board is Dr. Bernd Buchholz, who is also a member of the Bertelsmann board. The 'Expand your Brand' strategy that was conceived in 2006 is still relevant and circumscribes the aspired multimedia extension of existing brands and offers. Internet platforms, events and merchandise are supposed to turn the magazines into even more profitable products.
G+J is also investing in emerging markets: In August 2011, the publisher bought 78.75 percent of the Indian Magazine Publisher MaXposure Media Group. At the end of January 2012, media reported that G+J are interested in the main share of the biggest Online and Mobile Maketer in India NetworkPlay.
Media and communication services
The Arvato AG, itself a part of Bertelsmann, is one of the world's leading media and communication service providers and offers everything 'from the traditional print to modern services such as service centres, financial clearing or mobile services'. By now, about half of all Bertelsmann employees work in the service provider division.
In 2007 in Würzburg, a collaboration between Arvato and public administrations in Germany manifested itself. The ultimate goal is to outsource communal services – a huge market. In 2005, Arvato, together with G+J and the Axel Springer AG, founded the gravure printing joint venture Prinovis. Five call centres were added to the contingent by the end of 2006. Thanks to the ongoing outsourcing trend, the service business is quite profitable in Germany and France, yet turns out to be rather challenging in Italy and the USA. Furthermore, a joint venture between Arvato and German Vodafone subsidiary Vodafone D2 was granted in December 2006. Together, they seek to offer content for mobile networks and download services. For that purpose, the companies also acquired shares of Moconta, which manages and markets customer loyalty programs for mobile customers.
Arvato subsidiary Scoyo GmbH was founded in 2007 and develops online formats, which procure educational content through multimedia: Comics, info graphics and games. The project will launch in Germany and be internationalised at a later stage. By entering the e-learning industry, Arvato CEO Ralf Schrempner substantiated the company's prior announcement to shift the strategic focus towards service providing and education.
Book publishers
Thanks to the takeover of major American publisher Random House, Bertelsmann became the largest book publisher group in the world, sporting 11.000 new releases per year and 100 offshoot publishers in 16 countries. Numerous best selling authors, such as J.K. Rowling, ensure the division's strong market position with more than 6.000 employees (2008). 231 books by Random House made the bestseller list of the 'New York Times'. In 2007, Random House expended even more and took over the majority of Virgin Books in Great Britain. A fusion of Random House and Penguin Books is planned.
Digital Technology
The Bertelsmann Digital Media Investments Fonds (BDMI), which is equipped with 50 million Euros, is looking to secure the company's direct access to innovative technologies and developments. Due to the current economical situation, Bertelsmann cannot afford to buy promising start ups and as such, the management decided to invest in small companies instead - for the time being. The aim is to identify new business models. First successes of the fond: The Clipfish.de platform, the communities of magazines by G+J and the download platform GNAB by Arvato are making small profits.

This route not only demands strength but also creativity. 3rd pitch felt more like 8a+, but then we did this after a whole week of climbing, so we might be off by a bit. |

Don't be put off by the impressive display of heavy artillery outside what looks like an impenetrable brick building. Slip down the side – past some helpfully placed picnic tables – and be greeted by really friendly and knowledgeable guides to this free and extremely child-friendly museum in the heart of Chelsea.
Let's start with attractions for the diddlies. I went down a large buggy-passable ramp where there are mannequins of soldiers in uniforms from times past up to the present day which are replicas and OK to touch (I was told that the precious originals are in class cases on display elsewhere).
The Kids Zone (Ł2.50 for a one hour session) has facilities for babies – a soft play area with transport as a theme and a series of tables with small blocks and trucks. The emphasis here is not so much on combat but on all the other roles within the army – including an area where you can play at cooking.
What was possibly the main attraction here was an elevated climbing frame for those aged zero to eight years of age with all the nets, inflatables and slides you would expect in a commercially operated indoor adventure playground. Towards the rear there was an arctic area with tiny lights like ice or stars. Rocking horses too. And more soft shapes so that you can build your own camp. The music playing was "Be our guest" from Beauty and Beast. Pictures produced by previous young visitors adorned some of the walls and the kids present all seemed to be having a marvellous time.
As it is almost Jubilee weekend I took a detour into a more grown up display celebrating 60 years of the Queen and her soldiers. The Queen's army uniform is here in a case here and there are lots of photos of her with troops. I also wondered around areas on the first and second world wars which are probably best for older children or those with a serious interest in all things military. There was an impressive gallery with old oil paintings here too – lots featured horses and one even showed spears in mid air.
The Conflict of Interest area is designed for kids over 12 years of age and covers the period from 1969 in Northern Ireland. I was struck by a large montage photo (theme "Coming home") of Private Michelle Norris – the first woman to receive the Military Cross. This area had clever interactive computer games where users are presented with a series of timelines, facts and resources and asked to choose whether or not to deploy troops (an electronic display on the wall showed that nearly 80% of recent users had agreed to deployment in Afghanistan).
Tricky subjects like adapting to life at home were tackled here and, on the upside, lots of photos of real soldiers and their families. There was a large floor map with coloured annotations showing all those areas where we had troops deployed in active combat (only two) or on observing and peace keeping missions. There was also a model aeroplane suspended from the ceiling. It was thoroughly modern and very engaging – a million miles from the musty and dusty dull museums of my youth.
Other things that caught my eye as I wandered around (and I only managed to cover a tiny fraction of what is available in the time I had) were the disposal vehicles and the wall of messages to our troops ("Have your say") which had such touching messages of love and support I was almost moved to tears. In "Changing the world" there was the skeleton of Napoleon's horse which he abandoned at Waterloo.
In the lower Action Zone there were regular places where you could do interesting things like try on military coats, jackets and hats, stroke toy rats and read about leeches which are bound to interest younger visitors. There were skittle games and interactive panels where you connected wires. I also found a Florence Nightingale exhibition, a display about India Rising, a model of a fearsome looking Zulu warrior and the uniform of Lord Baden-Powell (founder of the Boy and Girl Scouts movement). There were glass cases containing an incredible array of medals and more showing hundreds of tiny toy soldiers.
Back on the ground floor is a current very popular exhibition of "War Horse – Fact and Fiction". Anyone with an interest in horses would be happy here – even if some of the stories are a bit sad. There are flip up panel games, old film extracts, horse models, an area where you can sit in horse saddles and information about horse anatomy.
There's a beautifully lit giant wire sculpture of a horse, information about no man's land and a huge display of small horses to show the significant role that they have played in many army operations. There's a remembrance wall where you are encouraged to pin your colouring efforts on horse shaped cut outs.
The Base Café offered a good selection of child friendly food and drink options if you forget your picnic – with a good seating area. The shop contained lots of books, models (Airfix and Cobi), toys, clothing (adorable tiny flak jackets and camouflage outfits as well as military inspired pyjamas) and pocket money priced items.
As I wandered along the 10 minutes or so walk back down Franklin's Row to the King's Road – on my way to Sloane Square tube station – I came across the Duke of York Square where a number of children were happily playing in the floor fountains – while parents sat on the many stone benches - as it was such a warm and sunny day. It didn't escape my notice that small folk will also be pleased to see pigeons, a Gelateria Valerie (ice cream!) and lots of bunting for that festive Jubilee feel.
http://www.nam.ac.uk/ - There are lots of family friendly activities and future exhibitions, regular talks on Thursday lunchtimes and a series of lectures with "celebrity" speakers. There's a sizeable "What's On" programme leaflet although all of the information is on the web site. Note that there are special family friendly Jubilee weekend events and a "Fighting Fit Fathers' Day" event on 16th and 17th June. It's thoroughly worth a visit.

Does anyone own one.......I plan on buying one, esp. out here in traffic hell. I wwanted to know if you really see a difference in fuel. Can't drive a TB forever.
what difference are you talking about? 1 Gallon of Ethonal has less BTU's than 1 Gallon of Gasoline, So you will see a decrease in MPG's (even when using E85). The payoff is that E85 costs less than gasoline. here in Niagara Falls E85 is around 1.90 to 1.95 while gasoline is about 2.10 or so.
I know a lady that has one and she claims that she can't tell a difference but the fuel MPG wasn't impressive. Hope that helps for second hand knowledge.
IMO it is not worth running you may save the 20 cents or whatever but you lose MPG and performance as well. Not worth it to me. Just a side note Gas is 1.30/gal here in KS now...
How are you loosing performance? E85 is rated at 105 octane. (+/- 2 or 3 points) and :gasp: gas is 1.30... whats diesel running at? gas is about 2.10/E85 is about 1.90 and diesel is still about 3.00
my truck has the flexfuel option to run regular gas or e85. as far as mpg it runs pretty good on reg gas switching to the v4 on flat surface and going down hills.still looking for an e85 station around me to test the e85 in the truck for proformance.
I think the E85 is more of a green thing. I'm not an expert on it. But I've swapped several engines over to methanol and seen as much as a10% increase in HP. That's an estimate considering the higher octane rating allowed us to run higher compression ratios and timing. It also runs cooler and is somewhat safer than gasoline. However, it takes almost twice as much methanol to get the correct air-to-fuel ratio as gasoline. Therefore, our MPG (if we happened to be concerned with it) were nearly cut in half. I would think that E85 would have to be priced pretty cheap to make it economical (at 100% alcohol you'll burn up nearly twice as much, I'm too lazy to do the math at 85%). So, I'm thinking the E85 is more for those folks that want to pay extra to save the environment.
I got a hippie in the family that says there is a E85 staton in Los Angeles City and one bio diesel station. Haven't seen them yet.
Yeah I know there is one in LA, San Diego somewhere, and farther up the coast. All are a little farther then I want to drive just to get gas. lol
I have the Flex Fuel/ standard fuel system and have not had the opportunity to try the fuel as it is not here in Tampa that I know of. Also, various posts here have presented problems about flex fuel and the decrease in MPG and performance issues, along with engine problems. With apparent savings of approx. 20 cents per gallon, not a real checkbook savings for me..... Jeff

Package: www.debian.org Severity: wishlist Heya, it would be great to have a RSS and/or Atom feed for the news section of the Debian homepage (and possibly a different one for the advisories listed there too). I know it's stuff one can already follow via mailing list(s), but a lot of people these days uses feeds directly, I think we can offer a service to more users offering both. Now, I've written before helpers that generate RSS, and I'm willing to contribute one for this specific case. Nevertheless the README files under News/ are a bit scary in stating that only press/webmasters should fiddle with them, so I'm looking for advice. Where can a script that generates RSS/Atom (and commits it?) can be hooked at in the process of maintaining the HTML listing of news on the website homepage? An alternative less invasive solution would be to have a separate script elsewhere checking out periodically from CVS the News/ directory, generate the RSS feed, and have it referenced from the homepage. That would work, wouldn't be that much at stake with feed technology (which does pull anyhow), but somehow doesn't feel "right". Any hint?

i am in the middle of a civil case and filed a motion for discovery to see what evidence theplantiff was going to present against me, and the judge denied it. Is that legal?

Without knowing your state, the details of what you asked for and what reasons the judge gave, it's impossible to say. Your motion may have been unreasonable, or out of time, or... I'm curious that you have to bring a motion for discovery, though. In many places discovery is available as of right without leave of the court. You just have to ask the other side.

What state are you in? In California you can send out discovery to another party 10 days after they have been served with the lawsuit. Discovery does not normally need to be filed with the court. Only pleadings need to be filed with the court. Unless you are filing a motion to compel discovery responses, but it sounds like you are just starting the process.

About 2.4 million healthy, adoptable cats and dogs—about one every 13 seconds—are put down in U.S. shelters each year. Often these animals are the offspring of cherished family pets. Spay/neuter is a proven way to reduce pet overpopulation, ensuring that every pet has a family to love them.
A solution is possible and starts with each of us taking one small step: getting our own pets spayed or neutered. To help stop pet overpopulation further, consider adopting your next pet from an animal shelter.
