The University of Miami School of Law Externship Program ("Externship Program") provides second-year (2L) and third-year (3L) students an opportunity to gain practical legal experience by working with local, national, and international corporations, government agencies, public interest organizations and the judiciary for academic credit. Students gain practical legal experience by working under the supervision of lawyers, which is supplemented and enhanced by a corresponding academic course. Please note that law firms, of any size, including solo practitioners, do not qualify as an externship placement for the Externship Program.
To qualify for the Externship Program, a placement must provide the student:
Please note that students receive academic credit for their work at the field placements. As such, students are not eligible to receive any compensation from externship employers or from any other sources including stipends or fellowships. Click here to see requirements for an organization to qualify for an externship placement.
In order for a student to participate in and receive academic credit for his/her participation in the Externship Program:
All externship placements are subject to the approval of the Miami Law Externship Program Committee.
For the fall 2015 semester, students are required to work at least 120 hours for 3 academic credits or at least 240 hours for 6 academic credits (in addition to completing the requirements of the Externship Program Course). The first day of the fall 2015 semester is August 19, 2015, and students will be required to complete the work hours by November 24, 2015.
How does a student secure an externship placement?
A student may apply to a pre-approved externship placement through the Career Development Office ("CDO") or secure his/her own legal internship and request for it to be converted into an externship placement upon the Externship Program Committee's review and approval. If a student secures his/her own placement, it is the student's responsibility to discuss the work hour requirements with the employer. Please note that there is no guarantee that a student will receive an offer from a pre-approved externship placement or that a student's self-secured internship will be approved as an externship. The CDO's goal is to provide students with as many opportunities as possible.
How do I participate in the Externship Program through the CDO?
To participate in the Externship Program, a student must complete the bidding process on Symplicity, a World Wide Web based program available at law-miami-csm.symplicity.com/students. "Bidding" entails submitting a resume and other requested materials via Symplicity. Instructions on how to bid on the Symplicity system are provided in the Student Guide to Symplicity. All students have a Symplicity account. If a student cannot locate his/her Symplicity login information, the student should e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com and provide his/her full name, class year and e-mail address (this e-mail address will be the student's username for the site). The student will then receive his/her login information via e-mail. Please allow up to two business days for a response.
Bidding for fall 2015 externship opportunities is currently underway as part of the Fall 2015 Externship Program (the Fall 2015 Externship Program is a separate program from the Fall 2015 Recruiting Program).
Students will be notified about the formal launch of each session of the Fall 2015 Recruiting Program via e-mail (the e-mail will be sent to the e-mail address attached to the student's Symplicity account). Students will then be able to bid on pre-approved participating externship placements by logging onto Symplicity and selecting "OCI, Resume Referral, Direct Contact and Externship Program Schedules" from the top navigation bar. A student will then be able to see a list of employers participating in the active Fall 2015 Externship Program session(s) by selecting the appropriate session from the drop-box menu, (externship placements will be specifically identified as such). Please note that Symplicity only allows a student to view and bid on employers seeking applications from his/her class year.
How do I submit a self-secured placement to the Externship Program Committee for approval?
All externship placements are subject to the Externship Program Committee's approval. If a student has secured his/her own legal internship and would like to submit it for approval, the student will be required to follow the steps on the CDO Fact Sheet: Would an Internship Secured For Myself Qualify as an Externship Placement? The deadline to submit a self-secured internship to the Externship Program Committee for approval is Monday, August 3, 2015. A student will be required to submit his/her contact information along with the placement's contact information, including his/her supervising attorney's direct contact information. The student's supervising attorney may be contacted directly for more information. This information will be considered by the Externship Program Committee. The Externship Program Committee will inform the student of its decision as soon as it is made via e-mail.
I have been offered an externship placement. Do I have to accept the position?
No; just as a student is not guaranteed he/she will be offered an externship position, an employer is not guaranteed that a student-applicant will accept a position when it is offered. If a student-applicant chooses not to accept an offer, the student must decline the offer in a professional manner, including calling the externship employer to decline the offer. After a student has made a commitment to an externship placement, he/she may not rescind his/her acceptance. Additionally, a student must decline an offer in a timely manner to give the externship employer and other students an opportunity to fill the placement. Please notify Sajani Desai of the CDO when declining an offer of an externship position.
I have accepted a placement. What do I do next to register for the course?
To be registered for the Externship Program Course, a student must first submit a complete Fall 2015 Student-Agency Agreement to the CDO. The CDO verifies a student's placement with the receipt of a fully executed Student-Agency Agreement. A Student-Agency Agreement is an agreement between the student, externship employer, and the law school that states the terms of the externship relationship. A fully executed Student-Agency Agreement is due to the CDO on or before Thursday, August 27, 2015.
I submitted my Student-Agency Agreement on time. How will I be registered for the Externship Program Course?
Upon receiving and processing a complete Student-Agency Agreement for an approved externship placement, the CDO will notify the student about which section of the Externship Program (Law881, 873 or 845) that the student has been assigned to. In addition, the CDO will provide the student with a unique pin number provided by the Registrar Office (the pin number is specific to the student). The student will then be able to enroll him/herself to his/her assigned section of the Externship Program by entering the unique pin number via his/her CaneLink account.
I am registered for the Externship Program Course. What do I have to do to receive a pass?
An essential component of the Externship Program is the work that a student completes at his/her field placement. As such, the feedback from an extern's supervising attorney to the student's externship professor as to his/her performance and progress (i.e., professionalism, attitude, work product, attire etc.) will play a major role in a student's ability to pass the Externship Program Course. Additionally, the student will have to submit a Time Certification Form to his/her externship professor, verifying that the student has completed the required work hours for his/her elected credit amount.
The Externship Program is an academic program. In addition to completing the work hour requirements at an approved externship placement, a student will be required to attend the academic course attached to this program. Based on a student's placement, he/she will be assigned to an externship section. Students will be notified at the time of enrollment of his/her assigned section.

White: Every fighter is picking Weidman over Silva
White: Every fighter is picking Weidman over Silva - Mixed Martial Arts News
Ed Soares explains how Anderson Silva can lose to Chris Weidman at UFC 162At UFC 162 Anderson Silva will defend his middleweight title against perhaps his stiffest test to date in undefeated Chris Weidman. At a media scrum on Thursday, UFC President Dana White commented that most fighters he's talking to, including Georges St-Pierre are picking Weidman to dethrone the champion:
"All the pros, when you talk to all the fighters - every fighter out there that I've talked too that we've interviewed thinks Weidman is going to beat him [Silva]. Georges St. Pierre thinks he's going to win so much that he didn't even want to plan to fight Anderson."
Ed Soares, manager to Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Middleweight Champion Anderson Silva, among others, says "The Spider" is capable of losing just like any other mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter, despite dominating the 185-pound weight class over the last seven years with relative ease.
After all, no one is "invincible."
Before you start screaming betrayal on Ed's part, he says that can only happen if Silva doesn't go into a fight healthy, focused and with a good training camp behind him. If he crosses off those items on his "to do" list, then no fighter can come close to beating him.
The proof, as they say, is in the pudding, as Silva has run roughshod over the 185-pound division, leaving a trail of destruction behind him to the tune of 16 straight wins inside the Octagon, including 10 straight title defenses.
If that wasn't impressive on its own, he holds three wins over James Irvin, Stephan Bonnar and Forrest Griffin at light heavyweight.
But, an unfocused Silva is beatable, as Soares explained on "The MMA Hour:"
"Anybody can go out there and put on a fight. Chris Weidman is undefeated, he's a tough guy and a fight is a fight, anything can happen. I believe in Anderson Silva. Anderson Silva is the best fighter on the planet. I think Anderson Silva is a bad fight for any fighter in any weight class. I'm not saying Anderson Silva is invincible. Anderson Silva can be beat just like anyone else can get beat. But I think if Anderson Silva goes in there well trained and focused, I don't think there's a fighter on the planet that can beat him."

Carol McGraw writes about education for The Gazette with Debbie Kelley. The coverage includes lifelong learning, state and national education issues, 17 school districts in the Pikes Peak Region, pre-K through 12, plus higher education including Colorado College, the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, Pikes Peak Community College and for-profit schools. Carol has a B.A. degree in journalism and a year of law school. These days she enjoys taking quilting classes and says she's got a lot to learn. Carol recently took obedience classes with her unruly Australian shepherd and Australian cattle dog. She failed. They got their diplomas.
Debbie has covered nearly every subject at The Gazette, including news, religion, business, real estate, the energy industry, health care, nonprofits, fashion, home and garden and county government. Her career also has encompassed writing greeting cards, speeches, annual reports, and technical trade and magazine articles.

Was much more than I expected. My initial contact was online. My inquiry was quickly followed up by one agent. Very polite, professional, and knowledgable.

July 5, 2015
I have had my stuff stored there for over 3 years, you have gone up on my rate twice and it is a financial burden to keep the storage, I have asked for 2 years to get the stripping replaced on my 183 unit because leaves and everything else get right in that unit. I have been told many times it would be addressed. So far I pay more for nothing moreMike from Hsv, AL

typo fixed and info for abandoned and preorder added, checkout:
the text for abandoned games is very strict and we do have a lot if them in the database, maybe not all of them are abandoned some where even released this year. http://www.lgdb.org/category/development/abandoned
Looks good, just fix the typo:
deleted form -> deleted from
So then it makes no sense if we have neverball or neverputt in the DB, right?
thats good we should have this warning for preorders and abandoned games(maybe in yellow), too
To illustrate what i have in mind check out fieldrunners http://www.lgdb.org/game/fieldrunners witch was distributed with a humblebundle and only is available from desura as invite only (?)
You can set the flag under the maintenence tab.
@nullzero it is possible to display a timer.
>>Just noticed - Neverputt was renamed to Neverball, but that actually illustrates
> I remember neverball it wasn't updated since years, the link lead to a page full of neverball with no neverputt downloads or links so I renamed this to neverball because neverball was missing and neverputt was / is nowhere available
From Neverball's download page: "Neverball, which includes Neverputt, is available for download here, and will run on most popular operating systems. Neverball is released under the GNU GPL."
Also "Also found here is Neverputt, a hot-seat multiplayer miniature golf game, built on the physics and graphics engine of Neverball."
So Neverputt is still around and kicking, it's just bundled with Neverball. You can't get one without the other. I don't think it should be removed from LGDB, it's still one of the most polished open-source Linux games out there.
Then if the page remained with the warning unchanged for a year or so, it could be then deleted/unpublished.
Maybe we could leave them published but display a big warning (like on Wikipedia) that this game page is not complete and/or the game is not availably atm for linux, or that the article is a stub and needs improving...
for a moderator it means just flagging the content appropriately. even less administrative work and better user information.

Kickoff for Jones County's first home game of the season is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. at Greyhound Field.
Both schools enter having lost their last game – Jones County (1-1) fell to Mary Persons 25-21 two weeks ago and Putnam County (2-1) lost to Morgan County 39-16 last week.
The Greyhounds beat Alcovy 21-16 to open the season, and the War Eagles started with a pair of wins, 28-14 over Greene County and 32-0 over Crawford County.
Putnam County leads the series 24-21 and has a four-game winning streak over the Greyhounds. But the last contest in the rivalry was back in 1997, when the War Eagles won 49-19 in Gray. Jones County's last win in the series was in 1993, 19-13 at home.

Battery was charged but still would not fire. Overall it had a cheap feel, the butt plate was difficult to open and hard to rotate out of the way. Returned it .. THANKS to PyramydAir for the quick refund! Ordered the King Arms military version ... MUCH, much better, total quality feeling!
Things I would have changed:Better QA at CyberGun ...

The Ashe County Board of Education held its February meeting Monday night, hearing a presentation on the effectiveness of mental health services at Ashe County High School (ACHS), and an overview of pre-K and kindergarten screening for the 2013-14 school year.
"This academic year, we have served about eight percent of the student body," said Dr. Kurt Michael, Director of Clinical Services for the Institute for Health and Human Services at Appalachian State, which offers crisis intervention and counseling at ACHS through the Assessment, Support and Counseling Center (ASC).
Last summer, the board approved the ASC center at ACHS for one full year after a promising first semester in spring 2012.
In partnership with school faculty, ASC helps students with depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts and other issues, with the assistance of licensed mental health professionals and interns. The program uses a psychotheraputic approach called cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on changing maladaptive thinking as a means of changing behavior and affect, or demeanor.
"The number of youth struggling with behavioral and emotional concerns (is) probably around 20 percent," Michael said. "About six out of 10…of the young people we are serving so far have exhibited what we describe to be clinically significant improvement in their symptoms."
Graduate Clinician Raphaelle Sale, who works with students at ASC said, "since we do this at absolutely no cost to the families…we've saved families approximately $6,000 since August."
Ashe County High School Principal Jason Krider said, "I can't say enough for what they've done for the kids…there's some real serious cases that I think are here and doing well today because of this group."
Ashe County elementary schools are preparing for Developmental Indicators for the Assessment of Learning (DIAL) screening this spring to place young children just starting school in classes this fall. Director of Exceptional Children and Pre-K Programs Terry Richardson updated the board on the active search for children to screen, which is under way.
"(We want) to make sure we reach everybody for this." she Richardson.
One of several tools for assessing a child's baseline development and abilities, DIAL screening is used to appropriately place kids in Pre-K, kindergarten or special needs education.
"Right now we have about 50 students at the pre-K level we're going to screen," said Richardson, adding that she hoped to find more. "You have to have the numbers to get the funding," she said.
The board announced that DIAL screening will take place at all three elementary schools on the following dates:
- Westwood — April 8-10
- Mountain View — April 15-17
- Blue Ridge — April 22-24
The Blue Ridge Elementary (BRE) school improvement team requested permission to apply for a grant from the I Am A Leader Foundation, an educational charity providing programs and services which build student character and leadership.
With an in-kind contribution of $5,950 per year for five years from BRE's school improvement fund, the grant will help fund the $77,000 The Leader In Me process, a program focused on increased student self-confidence and interpersonal skills, elevated student achievement and decreased discipline referrals.
The Leader In Me had gotten "rave reviews" at schools using the program, according to the BRE school improvement team.
The board unanimously approved writing of the grant. "If you can build character, you can build anything," said board member Terry Williams.
Superintendent Donnie Johnson sought approval for proposed 180- and 185-day academic calendars for the 2013-14 school year. Ashe is one of 12 N.C. school systems granted a waiver allowing them to start school as early as the Aug. 19, to offset snow days pushing the last day of the school year into June.
Both approved calendars have teachers starting Aug. 16, and students starting Aug. 20 this year.
A request from the Ashe County High Beta Club for an overnight trip to Greensboro was unanimously approved. Ten students and three chaperones will make the trip to the North Carolina National Beta Club State Convention February 21-23.
A request from Ashe County High School AP U.S. History students for an April 26-28 trip to Charleston, S.C., was also unanimously approved, but with some reservation about cost.
When a class takes a bus trip, the class or the school pays a flat $50 fee for use of the bus to offset fuel costs.
Board member Dr. Beckworth raised the issue of fairness: based on mileage, the Beta Club trip would cost about $1 per student, but the AP History trip — 656 miles round-trip — would cost Ashe County Schools $31 per student.
"I want all the students…to have the same opportunity. If we're going to allow any student to take a trip similar to this one, it's going to cost $100,000," he said.
Approving the Charleston trip, the board agreed that a better system of accounting for widely variant student trip expenses would have to be devised before more trips were approved.
The board approved the first draft of Ashe County Schools new chemical hygiene plan for middle and high school science classes. New regulations from the state mean some chemicals are no longer allowed in schools, and that additional safety equipment must be on hand, according to Assistant Superintendent Phyllis Yates.
The new chemical hygiene plan, after approval by the state, will be integrated with crisis management plans at the middle school and high school.
An awards ceremony scheduled for Monday's meeting was rescheduled for next month. Awards for February Employee of the Month, Teacher of the Year, Principal of the Year and other recognitions will be given at the board's next regular meeting on March 4.

MAC Kid Orange is redder. MAC Oriele is redder but muted. Essie Braziliant is darker, more red-toned. It has some red undertones, but it's more orange than red–definitely not coral. There's enough vibrancy for it to pop, but I wouldn't describe it as a neon–there's too much depth for that.

Steve Gleason House for Innovative Living
Thursday, January 17, 2013 4:08 PM
As Saints quarterback Drew Brees applauds, former player Steve Gleason, who is battling ALS, gets tears dried by his wife Michel after he gave an emotional speech to announce the Steve Gleason House for Innovative Living at St. Margaret's. It will be the country's second ALS skilled care residence and is part of the $25 million nursing facility under construction at the former Lindy Boggs Hospital in Mid-City. Chase gave a $350,000 donation to help fund technologies that will assist ALS patients with every day tasks. (Photo by Michael DeMocker, NOLA.com | The Times-Picayune)

Don't miss your chance to see high-octane basketball play; purchase your
Cleveland Cavaliers tickets

The Cavaliers NBA journey began in 1970 as an expansion team. The team's first few years on the hardwood were a rough ride. During the 1991 season, the Cavs made it to the conference finals where they were defeated by the
Chicago Bulls
. Overcoming numerous obstacles, the Cavaliers triumphed in 2007 by winning their first Eastern Conference Championship. While this resulted in the team's first trip to the finals, the journey was short lived as the
San Antonio Spurs
swept the Cavaliers in an unmatched battle.
The Cleveland Cavaliers have churned out many distinguished players with industry recognized names like Nate Thurmond, Shaquille O'Neal and LeBron James. While the Cavs don't have any entrenched rivalries, it goes without saying that hometown sentiment towards the
Miami Heat
is not as friendly as it used to be once LeBron James made the switch.

CRESTVIEW — If there is an epitome of a bulldog on the Crestview baseball team, Roman Donofro would be that player.
Standing only 5-foot-7 or 5-foot-8, Donofro, a pitcher and outfielder, won't blow you over with his size, until you start measuring the size of this Bulldog's fight.
Donofro fulfilled a dream Monday when he signed a baseball scholarship to play for Jefferson Davis Community College in Brewton, Ala. Donofro's teammate, Davis Champion, also signed with the Warhawks on Monday.
Donofro, also a standout on the Crestview basketball team, said his reason in picking Jeff Davis and baseball was simple.
"I just felt like it was a good fit for me," he said. "It just seemed like the place to be.
"Baseball has always been my No. 1 focus and priority. It's always been what I wanted to go further in."
Donofro's abilities on the baseball diamond surpass the mound. When he's not pitching, he's often in the outfield for the Bulldogs.
Crestview coach Tim Gillis said that what Donofro lacks in size he more than makes up for in talent and heart.
"Roman has always been a guy that has kind of overachieved as far as when you look at his stature," Gillis said. "But he's a guy that is a great competitor and when you have that kind of competitive drive the sky's the limit.
"Roman can play outfield and he can hit a little bit so he can help them out in several ways."
Warhawk assistant coach Adam Reed was on hand Monday to watch Donofro and Champion sign.
Reed said the Jeff Davis staff is always looking for players from Northwest Florida and they know when they sign a player from Crestview that they get a kid that has been well-coached by Gillis.
The Warhawks usually have four or five guys that pitch and also play another position and that, in time, Donofro is likely to get a look playing the outfield, but he will start his career on the mound, Reed said.
"The perfect way to describe him (Donofro) is a bulldog," Reed said. "We love the heart that he brings. We can tell he's got the energy.
"He's got all the pitches we need as far as his ability. I think he can throw a lot of strikes. I think he's going to be a guy that can step right in as a freshman and contribute."

Mr. Avery Thomas Pardue, age 87, passed away, Saturday, February 2, 2013 at Woltz Hospice Home in Dobson. Mr. Pardue was born January 19, 1926 in Hillsboro County, Florida to Herring and Lilly Green Pardue.

Snapshots from the Food & Wine Chef Showcase in Chicago

Google is a company that has a lot of ambitious projects and it's inevitable that some of them will fail. Eric Schmidt says that failure is actually a good thing.
"We try things. Remember, we celebrate our failures. This is a company where it's absolutely okay to try something that's very hard, have it not be successful, and take the learning from that."
Google's Peter Norvig has a more detailed explanation for this attitude:
"If you're a politician, admitting you're wrong is a weakness, but if you're an engineer, you essentially want to be wrong half the time. If you do experiments and you're always right, then you aren't getting enough information out of those experiments. You want your experiment to be like the flip of a coin: You have no idea if it is going to come up heads or tails. You want to not know what the results are going to be."
In fact, Peter Norvig says that Google is a company where failure is always an option:
"I think Google was early in accepting hardware errors. Other companies have tried to say, 'Well, if you can buy big, expensive computers that are more reliable, then you'll have fewer breakdowns and you'll do better.' Google decided to buy lots of cheap computers that break down all the time, but because they're so much cheaper, you can design the system with multiple backups and ways to route around problems and so forth. We just architect the system to expect failure."
Why there are so many Google products discontinued after a few months or a few years of development? Peter Norvig thinks that's a by-product of Google's rapid development model.
"We [try] to fail faster and smaller. The average cycle for getting something done at Google is more like three months than three years. And the average team size is small, so if we have a new idea, we don't have to go through the political lobbying of saying, "Can we have 50 people to work on this?" Instead, it's more done bottom up: Two or three people get together and say, "Hey, I want to work on this." They don't need permission from the top level to get it started because it's just a couple of people; it's kind of off the books."

The EPA specifies the use of a carpet head with a beater bar so be sure to order the optional HEPA Head™ carpet head. Its beater bar is powered by the air flow of the vacuum. One of the big advantages of the Dustless HEPA Wet/Dry Vacuum is the optional Micro Pre-filter that greatly extends the life of the HEPA filter. The Micro Pre-filter is an inexpensive disposable filter that captures the vast majority of the dirt and dust before it reaches the more expensive HEPA filter. In fact, the Micro Pre-filter captures particles down to .5 microns. That's remarkably close to the HEPA filter that captures particles down to .3 microns. We highly recommend contractors use a Micro Pre-filter in the HEPA Vacuum to extend the life of the more valuable HEPA filter.

Do you have that retail disk installed on your USB/SD? I'm thinking that the retail disks will still work if DM sees it on the mass storage. It is still read from the disk at that point, because if you eject, the game complains and tells you to put in back in.
I've not tried loading a disk that wasn't also on my USB though, I've ripped my entire library.
EDIT: OK. Forget what I said. I dig through my boxes of games and found one that I didn't rip (Pac-Man World 2)
I put the disk in, selected it from the disk channel on the Wii Menu, and it launched. I still got the DM splash screen, but the game ran just like normal.

The Jerry Zucker Ride for Hope returns this fall, headlined by internationally-renowned professional cyclist and South Carolina-native, George Hincapie, to raise funds to support local cancer charities, making a direct impact on improving quality of life and cancer treatment for thousands of South Carolinians. Each year several hundred bicyclists raise money and ride together through the beautiful and quiet roads of the Francis Marion National Forest, riding to raise money to fight this disease.
Jerry Zucker Ride for Hope participants include cancer survivors, as well as some cyclists currently undergoing treatment, whose strength and courage is an inspiration to all. Over the last five years, the Jerry Zucker Ride for Hope has raised more than $500,000 which is returned directly to the Charleston community, supporting the outreach
and programs of The Hollings Cancer Institute, Roper St. Francis Cancer Center, Share our Suzy, Camp Happy Days and other cancer-related programs.
This year's Ride for Hope is better than ever, and includes a new family-friendly, 10-mile "Cruiser Ride" for all ages and abilities. Cruiser Ride participants have a lower fundraising requirement ($250) and receive a Ride for Hope t-shirt, waterbottle, a delicious catered lunch and after-party. Cyclists looking for more of a challenge can
challenge themselves to raise $500 toward fighting cancer and join in either the 30-mile or 100K ride. Riders at the $500 level receive a custom Hincapie cycling jersey (value $200), t-shirt, custom cycling socks and waterbottle.
This year's ride includes a post-ride celebration at Awendaw Green with a hearty re-fueling lunch of fresh-made pasta by local vendor Salt Works, beer and live music by "Hit or Miss" featuring select band members from Sol Driven Train.
The 2013 Ride for Hope registration is open (www.charlestonrideforhope.com) and the ride will take place on Sunday, Oct. 20, at 8 a.m., at Awendaw Green, Highway 17N. All welcome this year at the at "the best little charity ride in S.C."
The Jerry Zucker Ride for Hope thanks its 2013 sponsors: Title sponsor: The Intertech Group; Gold Sponsors – MeadWestvaco, Johnson & Johnson, Roper St. Francis Foundation, MUSC Hollings Cancer Center; Silver Sponsors – Lucey Mortgage, Performance Consultants, Trident Health, Zeus; Bronze Sponsors – The Extra Mile, Banks Construction, Wells Fargo, Sol Driven Train, The Bank of S.C., Raymond James and Palmetto Plastic.

Kuraburi : Water Treatment
An important and essential product for everyday life in Phuket is clean water and treatment and filtration plays a big role in making this happen.
Potable water in Phuket only comes in bottles and all other household uses is safer when using a good filtration system to eliminate rust, brackish and hard water. UV water filters, reverse osmosis and other products are on the market in Phuket and available through the companies listed below.
Water treatment equipment for swimming pools, including filter replacements, supplies and other products to keep swimming pools clean can be found in this directory.

Music for the eyes, my saunter through my market, a swing through the grocery store and tumbles of cauliflower, watery green enveloping creamy white; heaps of citrus in silken orange, neon bright, the shimmer of overhead lights leaving a smear of shine; knobbly spuds and gnarly tubers in violet fading to black or a rainbow of warm chocolate browns; the harsh pinks of rabbit flesh, arms stretched out in supplication, empty eyes staring into nothingness, the shock of Eraserhead images lying placidly, violently in the butcher's case. I capture my visual feast, a winter's palate of earthy, rooty things, sordid beauty broken by the pale charm of buckets of roses, sweet and a hint of romance. A week of replacing words with images, visual moments, illustrations of my city, my life, filtered, sharpened to a pointed observation or muted to a fuzzy, romantic recollection. Taste with your eyes, your imagination.
Head down, working, so many projects, so little time, I decided to share some of my visual thoughts, the expressions of my day, a walk through my culinary world, a brief interlude. We shop often and as I trail behind the man pushing the cart or carrying the basket, I slow down and ogle the voluptuous charm, the allure of both the lovely and the ugly. I hold up my iphone and frame these objects of desire, sweet and savory delights. I let him worry about the recipe, envision a dish from the season's best and brightest. I surround myself with art, the banal becomes dazzling, the lumpy, elegant, the edible, visual.
And I share just two announcements:
On Thursday 24 January at 11:30 a.m. EST (that's 17:30 here on the European mainland, 8:30 a.m. Pacific Time US) I am hosting a Google+ Hangout. Google+ Guru Chef Dennis Littley has organized a time and a virtual space where I, along with my friend & co-instructor Meeta, will be presenting and talking about our From Plate to Page food writing, styling & photography workshops. Joining us will be two former Plate to Page alumni Robin (P2P Tuscany) and Simone (P2P Weimar) who will give a participant's viewpoint. There will be plenty of time to ask questions about the workshop as well as food writing and photography.
I am extremely proud and excited to share the news that friend and food photographer Ilva Beretta and I will be leading an Experts Are In session at the IACP 2013 conference held in San Francisco in April. Strategies For Expats will be a discussion on the particular and unique position we who are living and working in a country other than our homeland and readership base find ourselves in, the challenges we face as freelancers straddling two cultures, two countries and how we can make it work.
Et bon appétit!

Looks as missed hits may be a thing of the past as Google is bringing in a new version of their analytics code that loads at the top of the page, not at the bottom. This should help marketers understand the gap between what Google reports as clicks in their PPC/AdWords campaigns. The code will be placed as the Body tag opens in the HTML instead in the bottom as it closes.
Has Google found a way to fix the Google gap?

In my experience it has closed some of the gap but you should still expect some difference between clicks and visits, particularly if your hosting isn't lightning fast

Just goes to show, steroids DO WORK!
Just goes to show, steroids DO WORK!
There are many paths to freedom, not all are peaceful
I like Pacman but I just heard a good joke. How many Mexicans does it take to knock out Pacquiao? Just Juan.
Also Sakara what's up with that old dude in your sig sticking his hand in Pacman's face after he's knocked out?
Brown Pride
A huge blow struck to boxing.
Manny was a fool to take a 4th fight against Marquez in what he thought would be an easy win.
Say goodbye to the 50 million you were asking for Pac.
This comes easy for me, since I'm not a Pacquiao fan. Infact, I've been hoping for this to happen in all of his past fights haha. It was crazy when I saw that punch land.
After his manager weighed the risk/reward of the Mayweather so unscruptulously, they ended up taking a fight for a fraction of the reward against Marquez, whom he has been in some wars with. Worst decision ever.
50 million, almost as much as his current networth just went up in smoke.
Might not have been smart but it's refreshing to have fighters who will say "fuck it" every now and then and just step up and fight someone in what will be an entertaining fight, instead of dragging out for a fight that might never happen anyways.
I hope this isn't too big, because it's awesome.
Wish that fight came to fruition. Looks like it won't. I'm pretty disappointed.
Why all the hate for Manny. Dude is a warrior and one of the best ever. He has made a boat load of money and has a tremendous legacy. Unfortunately father time catches everyone.
Too bad we won't get the Manny vs Floyd bout that we would have had a few years back. Oh well, I still got respect for the Pac Man.

Nelson D. Schwartz
Nelson D. Schwartz has covered the economy and economics for the business section of The New York Times since August 2012. He was the 2014 recipient of the Nathaniel Nash Award, given annually by The Times to honor "a correspondent, reporter or columnist who excels in business or economic news, nationally or abroad."
Mr. Schwartz's recent articles have included a look at the economics behind dead malls, an examination of how inequality is reordering the world of consumers and retailers amid economic pressure on the middle class, in addition to regular coverage of the latest data on unemployment and economic growth.
He is interested in the way broader economic shifts play out on a human level, as well as the changing landscape for manufacturing, employment and opportunity in the United States.
Before moving to the economics beat, Mr. Schwartz covered Wall Street, banking, and finance for two and a half years, and also served as European economics correspondent in Paris from 2008 to 2010. He joined The Times as a Sunday Business feature writer in June 2007.
From 1997 to 2007, Mr. Schwartz was a senior writer for Fortune, where he reported from New York and more than a dozen foreign countries, including Russia, Britain, Iraq, Libya, Kuwait, Argentina and Brazil. He received an honorable mention from the Overseas Press Club in 2006 for his interview with Hugo Chávez and his portrait of Venezuela's oil industry in Fortune.
He began his career in the Washington bureau of The Baltimore Sun, and also worked for Smart Money magazine in New York covering personal finance. A keen bird watcher, he has made time for bird watching during reporting trips in Iraq and Kuwait, as well as South America.
A 1995 graduate of the University of Chicago, where he studied Russian and American history, Mr. Schwartz grew up in Scarsdale, N.Y. He lives with his family on the Upper East Side of Manhattan.
