There are two sides to every story ("House approves budget deal, handing major victory to John BoehnerJohn Andrew BoehnerSpeculation mounts, but Ryan's job seen as safe Boehner warns Trump: Don't pull out of Korea-US trade deal GOP Rep: Ryan wasting taxpayers dollars by blocking war authorization debate MORE," Dec. 13). Tea Party Republicans are correct to be critical of Republican Speaker John BoehnerJohn Andrew BoehnerSpeculation mounts, but Ryan's job seen as safe Boehner warns Trump: Don't pull out of Korea-US trade deal GOP Rep: Ryan wasting taxpayers dollars by blocking war authorization debate MORE. The adopted budget for 2014 and 2015 is a disaster for those who advocate fiscal restraint, balanced budgets, no tax increases and a reduction in long-term debt. Billions in "user fee" increases are just hidden taxes to pay for more social programs advocated by Democrats. Promised savings of $85 billion over 10 years accompanied by a $23 billion reduction in debt is just creative bookkeeping. How can anyone not find far more than $2.3 billion on a yearly basis in savings out of a $3 trillion-plus budget?
There are just as many good managers in the government as in the private sector. If their superiors would give them the authority and flexibility to manage budgets, they could find far more savings than members of Congress and the president have proposed. Millions of Americans have cut far more out of their family budgets and managed to survive. Why can't our elected officials do likewise? There is no guarantee that future budgets adopted by Congress and signed by presidents will enforce these commitments that exist only on paper. Both the Congress and president on a bipartisan basis are just kicking the can to 2015 and beyond instead of dealing with our financial crises today.
Everyone has forgotten that decades ago, balanced budgets were supported on a bipartisan basis by both the president and Congress regardless of which party was in control. Neither the Republicans nor Democrats in Congress or the president offer a real balanced budget anytime soon. If Tea Party Republicans wanted this toxic brew Boehner is serving, they might as well have voted for Democratic House candidates and bringing back Nancy Pelosi as Speaker of the House. At least with Pelosi, what you see is what you get.
How disappointing that everyone in Washington appears to be preoccupied with staying in power regardless of the cost to taxpayers.
From Larry Penner, Great Neck, N.Y.
Republicans should take a look in mirror
With the recent cut-off of jobless benefits to those unemployed 26 weeks or longer, another 1.3 million people are now dangling without a safety net ("Jobless aid expires for 1.3M people," Dec. 28).
Never mind that long-term unemployment is at its highest rate since World War II, that those out of work — for more than half a year! — are having a very tough time finding a job or that long-term unemployment is taking a toll on people's health. The real damage of long-term unemployment is that it is destroying the U.S. economy.
I don't want to make this a partisan issue, but the Republicans in the House really need to take a long look in the mirror.
After losing the 2012 presidential campaign, the GOP conducted a well-publicized audit of its political goals and objectives. One of the party's conclusions: Republicans need a change of address. The cul-de-sac they live on — of limited access and ideas — actually is preventing the GOP from growing.
I thought the Republicans embraced this message of change until last September's vote in the House to cut $40 billion in food stamp relief. If ever there was a moment when American idealism faced off against partisan cynicism, this was it. That is, until Saturday's cut-off of jobless benefits.
How can the GOP lawmakers say with a straight face they are on the side of poor families? That "pull yourself up by the bootstrap" mentality just doesn't compute for millions of hungry or unemployed Americans.
If congressional Republicans really want to help those in need, then they better figure out a way to put people to work. How do you spell help? It's j-o-b-s, not c-u-t-s.
From Denny Freidenrich, Laguna Beach, Calif.
While we're at it, end Congress's benefits too
I think Congress is 100 percent correct in its attempt to eliminate unemployment insurance, food stamps and healthcare for those who take from the government and do no work to earn it. That is why we should deny the House of Representatives their welfare, their salary and their free healthcare, to coincide with the number of days they go to their workplace. They are the most blatant of all of us about getting paid and receiving benefits and not working.
From Norm Grudman, Aventura, Fla.

Pioneer Editorial: Do eminent domain fix with thought
The Minnesota House took an important step in protecting private property rights Thursday night when it passed legislation to restrain local governments' ability to acquire land over the objection of property owners.
While the House bill now moves to conference committee -- the Senate earlier approved its own version -- reform of eminent domain laws is not done. Both bills can be improved, and we hope that the House-Senate conference committee does that.
Based on a U.S. Supreme Court decision affecting the use of eminent domain in Connecticut, states have been rushing to rein in the powers of local government to take property when property owners object, albeit they are compensated for their loss. In the Connecticut case, a city used eminent domain to take homes at a lesser value and turn the property over to a developer who would build retail space at a higher property value, thus giving the city a higher property tax return. The high court said that was within the city's purview under eminent domain.
While Minnesota cities and the organizations that represent them maintain no changes are needed in Minnesota law and that such an extreme case wouldn't be done, state law nonetheless gives cities the flexibility to do just that.
The House bill, which passed 115-17, would bar local governments for taking property for that purpose, but still allows the ability to acquire "blighted property."
The key reason for eminent domain is to acquire land for public purpose, such as roads and schools, and that use should continue without restraint. Also, the eventual law -- while making it easier for property owners to contest and win legal fees in eminent domain cases -- should not add unnecessary burdens to true public purpose cases. In other words, the cost to taxpayers in building roads should not bloom because of increased court cases over acquiring rights of way for needed roads.
In passing the bill Thursday, House members defeated two attempts to amend the bill to exempt two projects involving private property now in the works, with one stalled by a single homeowner while community agreement is high. Perhaps the conference committee should consider provisions to allow a city advisory vote in cases where economic development truly has community support and isn't just a city's push for more property tax dollars.
At any rate, it seems certain that both the Senate and the House will enact eminent domain reform. That said, we still need to make sure that the final product upholds our hard-fought right to own property unimpeded by government whims without making matters worse.

21 December 2012: Santiago, Chile – Aggreko, the world leader in temporary power and temperature control services, will provide a mobile power solution for Dakar 2013, the world's greatest endurance motor race.
Taking place in January 2013 across Peru, Argentina and Chile, Dakar 2013 will be the fourth edition of the event that Aggreko has powered since the race relocated from Europe and Africa to Latin America in 2009.Competitors will tackle a gruelling 8,000-kilometre course over 15 days, starting in the Peruvian capital Lima on January 5th and finishing in Santiago, Chile, on January 19th. Due to the remote nature of many of the route stages, the organisers needed a mobile, fully independent and highly reliable power supply to run essential services such as communications and broadcast facilities and to provide camp power throughout the race.The Aggreko solution includes three separate truck-mounted generator sets that will move between each stage of the event. These sets, consisting of two 350 kVA generators, will ensure that power services are ready before the arrival of competitors and support teams at the end of each stage. A team of Aggreko technicians will travel alongside the equipment to install, operate and then decommission the generators."Dakar is just as much a race for Aggreko as it is for the competitors and their support teams," commented Andras Mesics, General Manager, Aggreko Chile, Peru and Bolivia. "We are racing against the clock to ensure a seamless power supply is available at each and every point of the race. It's a challenge we look forward to every year, not only because of the excitement of the event, but also because it highlights the ability of both our people and our equipment to work and thrive under such demanding conditions, without compromising on Aggreko's stringent quality and safety standards."

A VOYA Top-Shelf selection, Wendy Mass' poignant yet funny coming-of-age novel also received the ALA's Schneider Family Book Award.
©2003 Wendy Mass; (P)2007 Recorded Books
"Mia's voice is believable and her description of the vivid world she experiences, filled with slashes, blurs, and streaks of color, is fascinating....[Her] unique way of experiencing the world is intriguing." (School Library Journal)
"A Cute Listen"
This is a very cute book. I teach high school, and some of my kids turned this into a short play. They really enjoyed reading it. For me, the story dragged a bit in the middle. I thought it was Mia was a bit whiny and self-centered at parts (think Harry Potter in books 4/5), but then I remembered she was an 8th grade girl (no offense meant here). Overall, strong start and a super cute end with a LOT of interesting stuff in between. Wendy Mass really sparked my interest. Since this book, I went on to learn more stuff about synesthesia, and it has led me to her other books which seem pretty awesome as well.
"Worth it"
Used this book as my free trial because of school and I was so tierd of reading. I absolutely love it.
"Love it every time I read it!"
Yes! I first read this book when I was young and I still love it just as much! A great story with lots depth and a unique story! I wish there were others like it!
How well Mia's characters was developed through the narration of her life from her perspectives and others, and her relationships!
Yes, wonderful author!
Yes, appreciate the beauty in the world around me!
Listen to this book! So good! Wonderful wonderful wonderful!
I love this book to much i give it a 5 out of 5! 😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻 a must read
"heartwarming and thought invoking"
Great story that sheds light on a little known topic, synesthesia (sp?). Discusses many topics anyone can relate to, especially young adults. Looking forward to a novel study on this book with my 6th grade literature classes in April.
"One word"
Amazing nothing but amazing this book is my favorite and will most likely remain my favorite
"One of the best books"
It was amazing this was the first book that made me cry. I highly recommend it.
"Fascinating introduction to synesthesia"
Having no clue what to expect when I purchased this book, I was absolutely fascinated by it. I never knew that synesthesia existed in so many different forms, and that it could be so vivid for some. I have a very mild form of synesthesia myself, but A Mango-Shaped Space brought it home to me rather forcefully just how mild it is. Nothing like Mia anyway, that's for sure.
While in some ways a typical YA fiction with the friendship, family and relationship issues that entail, by far most of the book is used to describe Mia's condition and how it affects her every-day life. It's well written, and readers of all ages will find it an interesting way to learn about synesthesia.
The book was read by Danielle Ferland who did a good job of sinking into the background and letting Mia tell the story. She did voices well, even if Mia's father could sound a bit strained at times, and Mia's friend Jenna was occasionally too young-sounding. Minor details though - in general, she was a pleasure to listen to.

Global : GCC Telecom Operators are on an expansion spree
• Global : GCC Telecom Operators are on an expansion spree
Global Investment House- GCC telecom sector- August 2008 - In the recent years the GCC telecom players are on an expansion spree following measures from Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Oman, and UAE to allow additional service providers in the respective countries. This should result in inducing higher competition and further drop in ARPUs in the region and resultant contracting profitability of the players. The service providers should aim to increase their market shares by providing differentiated value added services and providing content based services (like mobile video streaming) to enhance the ARPUs.
The GCC region registered a decline of 6.9% in fixed line subscribers from 5.8mn subscribers in 2006 to 5.4mn subscribers in 2007 on account of increasing shift of customer base to the more convenient mobile voice services.
Increasing disposable income and convenience of use is encouraging the cellular penetration in the region. Other important contributing factor to the increased cellular penetration is the relaxation in telecom regulations allowing second or third player in each country apart from the incumbent local carriers (usually the first state run Telco service provider in each country). The GCC region registered a 5 year (2002-07) growth in cellular subscribers at a CAGR of 37.6 %. The MENA region has seen the highest worldwide 5 year (2002-07) growth in cellular subscribers at a CAGR of 52.9% against the worldwide increase of 23.3%. With the country wise cellular markets reaching or crossing the 100% penetration levels within the GCC region, all the six member countries registered double digits CAGR during the 5 year (2002-07) period.
In 2007, Asia and MENA region were the major growth contributors with YoY growth rates of 36.8% and 33.9% respectively. UAE topped the list of high growth contribution with a YoY growth rate of 34.6% with its internet user base increasing from 1.7mn in 2006 to 2.3mn in 2007. The next highest contributor was Saudi Arabia that reported a 31.9% YoY increase in the internet users' base from 4.7mn in 2006 to 6.2mn in 2007. The high proportion of youth in the demographics, with 55% to 65% of the total population under the age of 30 years is driving the internet usage in the GCC region.
The higher rate of internet penetration and improved infrastructure services in terms of shift from Dial up to cable is helping increase the broadband subscriber base in the GCC region. The analysis of 5 year (2002-07) CAGR in broadband subscribers worldwide indicates that the GCC region is amongst the top three growth regions in the world. The worldwide broadband subscriber base increased at a 5 year (2002-07) CAGR of 38.9%.
Companies under coverage
As a part of the GCC Telecom coverage we are covering Qatar Telecom (Qtel), Mobile Telecommunications Company (Zain), National Mobile Telecommunications Company (Wataniya), Saudi Telecom (STC), Etihad Etisalat Company (Mobily), Emirates Telecommunications Corporation (Etisalat), Oman Telecommunications Company (OTEL) and Bahrain Telecommunications Company (Batelco) in this report.
Mobile Telecommunications Company (Zain) was established in 1983 in Kuwait as the region's first mobile operator. Since 2003, it has grown significantly becoming the 4th largest telecommunications company in the world in terms of geographic presence with a footprint in 22 countries spread across the Middle East and Africa providing mobile voice and data services to over 50.74mn active customers (as at 30 June 2008). In August 2008 the company is raising its equity capital through rights issue. The company's paid up capital will be increased by 75% through rights. We have used Sum-Of-The-Parts (SOTP) valuation method for company's operations in different countries. Based on consolidation of the individual country operations, our SOTP valuation estimates the fair value of Zain's stock at KD1.77, which is 2.7% higher than the current market price of the stock of KD1.72 per share (as at Aug. 31, 2008). We, therefore, reiterate our "HOLD" recommendation on the stock.
National Mobile Telecommunications Company (Wataniya) has grown rapidly through acquisitions in the MENA region and Asia. Apart from Kuwait, the company has operations in Maldives (100% stake), Saudi Arabia (55.61% stake), Tunisia (50% stake), Algeria (71% stake) and in 2007 it got a license to launch second mobile services in Palestine (57% stake). In March 2007, Qatar Telecom (Qtel) acquired 51% of Wataniya Telecom shares from Kuwait Projects Company Holding KSC (KIPCO) group for a total cash consideration of US$3.8bn. We have used Sum-Of-The-Parts (SOTP) valuation method for company's operations in different countries. Based on consolidation of the individual country operations, our SOTP valuation estimates the fair value of Wataniya's stock at KD2.58, which is 38.6% higher than the current market price of KD1.86 (as at Aug. 31, 2008). We, therefore, revise our recommendation on the stock from HOLD to "BUY".
Saudi Telecom (STC), was the sole provider of telecommunication services in Saudi Arabia until its monopoly in the mobile market ended when the second mobile license was granted in 2004 to Etihad Etisalat Company (Mobily). In March 2007, a consortium led by Zain of Kuwait won the third mobile, and launched its services in 2008. In April 2007, three fixed line licenses were granted in Saudi, ending STC's monopoly over fixed lines. As a result of increasing competition, the company started expanding outside its home market beginning with the Maxis deal which gave STC foothold in Malaysia, India, and Indonesia, Later, STC won the bid for a 26% stake in Kuwait's third mobile service operator. Finally, STC acquired a 35% stake in Oger Telecom, which gave STC presence in Turkey and South Africa. We expect STC's revenues to grow by a CAGR of 9.2% during our forecast period (2008-2011). Our DCF valuation estimates the fair value of STC's stock at SR78.75, which is 21.6% higher than the current market price of the stock. We therefore reiterate our "BUY" recommendation for STC.
Etihad Etisalat Company (Mobily), is Saudi's second mobile operator. Mobily launched its services in May 2005. Within three years of operations, the company managed to grab a market share of 41% by the end of 2007, with 11.1mn subscribers. Mobily has been targeting the data and internet segment aggressively. In 2007, the company acquired a 99.9% stake of the local data provider Bayanat Al-Oula, and set up Mobily InfoTech, a fully owned subsidiary in India, which will provide information technology and consulting services. In addition, Mobily got the approval to acquire 96% of Zagel International Communication Network Company which is specialized in providing internet services in Saudi Arabia. We believe that Mobily's latest acquisitions will strengthen its position in the wireless broadband internet segment. Our DCF valuation estimates the fair value of Mobily's stock at SR68.84, which is 49.6% higher than the current market price of the stock. We therefore reiterate our "BUY" recommendation for Mobily.
Emirates Telecommunications Corporation (Etisalat) was the sole provider of telecommunication in the UAE until its monopoly was broken when Emirates Integrated Telecommunications Company (EITC) know as "DU" won the second license for fixed line, mobile, and internet services in 2005. The group is present in 15 countries in Africa and Asia. We expect the share of international operations of the group's top line results to increase from 6% in 2007 to 11% in 2011. We have used Sum-Of-The Parts (SOTP) valuation method for the company's operations in different countries. Based on the consolidation of the individual company operations, our SOTP valuation estimates the fair value of Etisalat's stock at AED27, which is 50% higher than the current market price of the stock. We therefore initiate our coverage for Etisalat with a "BUY" recommendation.
Qatar Telecom (Qtel) provides domestic and international telecommunication services in Qatar and wireless telecommunication services in the Asia and MENA region through its subsidiaries. The year 2007 was a transformative one for Qtel – characterized by many partnerships and acquisitions in the MENA and Asia regions. These activities have broadened Qtel's geographic presence to 16 countries (2006 – 2 countries) with the ability to reach over 560mn people. In 2007, the Qtel group's subscriber base has grown from 1.72mn in 2006 to over 16mn – an increase of over 850%. In March 2007, Qatar Telecom (Qtel) acquired 51% of Wataniya Telecom shares from Kuwait Projects Company Holding KSC (KIPCO) group. In June 2008, Qtel acquired a 40.8% stake in PT Indosat Tbk, Indonesia's second-largest phone company, from its subsidiary Asia Mobile Holding Pte. Ltd. We have used Sum-Of-The-Parts (SOTP) valuation method for the company's operations in different countries. Based on consolidation of the individual country operations, our SOTP valuation estimates the fair value of Qtel's stock at QR282.4, which is 77.2% higher than the current market price of QR159.4 per share (as at Aug. 31, 2008). We, therefore, revise our recommendation on the stock from "HOLD" to "BUY".
Bahrain Telecommunications Company (Batelco) is the incumbent telecom operator in Bahrain. The subsidiaries/associates of Batelco are Umniah (Jordan), Qualitynet (Kuwait), Sabafon (Yemen), Batelco Egypt and Atheeb (Saudi Arabia). Batelco posted a double digit YoY net income growth rate of 13.6% increasing from BD89.3mn in 2006 to BD101.5mn in 2007. Batelco has adopted the right strategy of exploring and investing in low penetrated markets both in cellular and broadband space. Its aim to grow geographically into the MENA region with a goal to generate 70.0% of its revenues from international operations by the end of 2010 seems to be achievable given the success they have achieved so far in their investments. The estimated fair value for Batelco works out to BD0.837 per share which offers and upside of 18.7% on the market price of BD0.705 per share (as at Aug. 31, 2008). Hence, we initiate on the stock with a "BUY" recommendation.
Oman Telecommunications Company (OTEL) is the incumbent telecom service provider in Oman. Nawras is a competitor of OTEL in the cellular segment. OTEL registered a topline YoY growth of 12.9% increasing from RO323.6mn in 2006 to RO365.3mn in 2007. The net profit increased from RO80.7mn in 2006 to RO112.0mn in 2007 registering a YoY growth rate of 38.8%. We believe that the Omani telecom sector is to see unprecedented competition in the coming years attracting cellular players now that TRA is considering a third cellular player. OTEL should continue to retain its market share in this competitive scenario by enhancing revenue growth in Fixed and Mobile segment, while retaining valued customers through loyalty programs. The estimated fair value for OTEL works out to RO2.339 per share which offers and upside of 18.0% on the market price of RO1.983 per share (as at Aug 31, 2008). Hence, we initiate on the stock with a "BUY" recommendation.

I have a pump in style pump, but can only get 1 ounce combined out of both breasts when I pump. I don't know what to do, I'd love to breastfeed exclusively, but that's not going to happen now. I was not prepared for this, I've never had a problem breastfeeding before. I feel like I'm running out of time to get this figured out.
I have not seen an LC, as I don't know of any around here. I do have an appointment with WIC later today, I'm hoping there's someone there I can talk to. I don't have any support from DH In this, as he'd rather just formula feed as it's easier (yeah, not really).
I'd be happy just to be able to pump & bottle feed, instead of using formula, but I can't even get anything out with the pump.
When I had trouble getting my babies to latch, a LC suggested I express a little bit of breastmilk, then let baby have a taste and hopefully they would try to latch on. Is your son nursing from both sides? Are you taking anything to help increase your milk supply? Right now I'm using fenugreek, blessed thistle and domperidone. I have medical issues too though and am not sure if they are working to their full potential. I was also told to use the breastpump after the baby nursed to stimulate the breasts even more. It worked a little bit for me, but not to the point that I was with my other nursing babies.
Kudos to you for trying. This is a tough time. You're doing great.
If you want to get your supply up, you should rent a hospital grade pump for a bit. And I'd suggest asking the hospital for recommendations on a lactation consultant. Or your pediatrician.
I pumped and fed the first month almost exclusively, and for nights through three months. Sometimes twins need a little extra time to figure things out. But feeding the babies (however it's done) is the most important thing. And you're doing that.
I had trouble with supply in the beginning, too, and it totally shocked me because I have tandemed with a toddler and newborn with several of my children. I found that I was not drinking nearly enough water with my twins. I also added a lot of oatmeal to my diet. I would eat two bowls a day until they started gaining well. I've read that it needs to be regular rolled oats, not quick oats or the instant packets. I know your little girl is struggling with latch, but you might want to try feeding them together. If you can get your son latched and the milk flowing, then work on getting daughter latched (extra hands doing this might be necessary). Alternatively, pumping the other side while son is latched can be a great way to produce more for the pump. I have always struggled to pump, but I couldn't believe when I pumped a full 4 oz bottle in minutes when I nursed on the other side.
Sorry, I'm a little all over the board with ideas. You might find you are more successful getting your babies to latch well if you are in the bathtub. Another idea is that they are not too old yet to try self-attachment. Video: http://breastcrawl.org/video.shtml fast forward to 2 min mark, and note that this might take 30-60 min to accomplish this. I noticed a marked improvement in latching after doing this with one of my twins. The other didn't succeed, but after noting that time stated in the video, I'm realizing I didn't wait nearly long enough! There is a lot of information at that website, too.
Also, do you have a good twin nursing pillow? I found mine invaluable in the first weeks. I had a few other thoughts, but now they are gone. I'll post back if I remember them. Darn twin-fatigue! LOL
Mom to eight!! Our twin girls arrived 3-3-2011.
I have a my brest friend twin nursing pillow that I like a lot. Though even so I don't do a lot of tandem nursing: I find when I do (it's great when both girls are starving) I have to top each one off afterwards. But even when just nursing one baby it can be very nice.
I'll update how things are going .
Awesome news.

To me he most closely resembles Mike Tyson. The scary power and a killer instinct but still makes too many mistakes that only great boxers can and have exploited.
Manny's greatness is the fact his body has allowed him to move up in weight and accomplish things that no other man has or will. Major props fopr that.
What I am surprised about is all the praise he is getting for beeating Margacheato. While he did beat his a$$ badly, he was a 5-1 favorite. This was expected to happen.
Now if he wins when he is not the favorite (and you all know there is only 1 fight he wont go in the favorite) then I may feel as strongly as Cuauhtémoc1502
You failed to understand what this man has done. Forget beating Marg, I had him beating Marg anyway but not the way he did. He punished Marg and beat a bigger stronger man like it was nothing.
He beat up on Cotto, he beat JMM twice (even though I had it draw and a win for JMM) his resume speaks for it'self.
Pac is an ATG and I'm sorry but Leonard, Chavez, DLH, Whitaker...none of them have accomplished what Pac has in the sport.
It's time to stop the hatred, put aside the biased and give props where they are due.
maybe Finito Lopez can be compared but the other's on your list just don't match up.

text: According to the Unites States Bureau of Labor Statistics, 163,000 jobs were added to the private sector in July. Though this undoubtedly good news, the sudden surge in hiring near the end of July was not enough to offset the unemployment rate significantly. We at Accolo want to stress that there are jobs out there and that the United States's high rate of unemployment is due, in part, to a hiring problem, that is a failure of communication and networking between companies and prospective workers. Our company has set a goal of filling one million positions in 2013 and economic growth like that in this past month is a heartening sign for the completion of this goal. The link below is an article in the Wall Street Journal and details more specifically the state of hiring and the economy in general.

John Henry Jowett, Englishman who served for many years at the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian— Church, Manhattan, was perhaps the most famous pulpit orator of his generation.
Happy in his personal relations, he stepped from one rich pulpit to another. Never was there sign of trouble, intellectual or financial. He preached sweet Christianity, packed the galleries.
His biography has now been published,† It tells all this, with many extracts from his noble utterances. But there is one great gap. According to his biographer, "a spoken wish of Dr....

Farm state lawmakers in Washington, D.C., are becoming increasingly restless with the lack of answers related to the MF Global bankruptcy. Not only did the firm's recent collapse take between $600 million and $1.2 billion dollars of people's money with it, many of those clients involved farmers who now do not have the funds to secure seed, fertilizer and equipment they will need for the 2012 production year.
Even when, or if, a portion of the money is recovered, the damage it has done to farmers' confidence in using the futures market as a risk management strategy could be long term phenomenon. "Farmers use hedging to manage their risk, and most days that's a good practice," says Bob Young, chief economist with the American Farm Bureau Federation. "But any kind of action like this creates a confidence challenge among producers going forward—and that puts them at that much more price risk."
Producers have trusted futures in part because of provisions that required producer funds must be segregated from brokerage funds. The point of this is to protect customers' margins in the event of a default or bankruptcy. That, of course is at the core of the MF Global controversy.
At last week's U.S. House Agriculture Committee hearings on the MF Global bankruptcy, Rep. Frank Lucas (R-Okla.), committee chairman, admitted there's still much more to learn before confidence in the futures market will be restored.
This week, the Senate Agriculture Committee is taking its turn. Appearing in front of the Senate panel on Tuesday, Jon Corzine, former MF Global chief has said he does not know what happened to the customers' money.
He reiterated what he told the House committee last week, that "I never gave any instructions to misuse customer funds, I never intended anyone at MF Global to misuse customer funds."
Still, that's what happened. The futures brokerage had used $6.3 billion to bet on European sovereign debt. MF Global filed for bankruptcy on Oct. 31.
"Funds don't simply disappear," Sen. Pat Roberts (R-Kan.), and ranking member on the Senate Ag Committee, said at Tuesday's hearing. "Someone took action, whether legal or illegal, to move that money; and the effect of that decision is being felt across the countryside."
Roberts cited the timeline between Oct. 26 to Oct. 28, when the funds remained with MF Global, and by Oct. 31, "they were gone."
"Producers must have faith in the safety and stability afforded by the futures market…to manage one's own risk," Roberts said, "which is why we need to get to the bottom of what happened. The buck stops somewhere."
Several farmers have been in Washington to testify both last week and again this week.
There are already laws on the books to prevent such fund usage. "It's almost like a terrorist attack…you get an individual or two who decides to do something to get around the law and it's pretty hard to defend against something like this," Young notes. "It's absolutely wrong to co-mingle funds; they (MF Global) should have never been in that situation."
Regarding a possible timeline to recover funds to MF Global clients, few specifics are being offered. "As soon as possible," is the timeline offered by MF Global Trustee James Kobak, who is charged with the task. That answer isn't sitting well with lawmakers, as Rep. Tim Johnson of Illinois, said he and farmers needed a more specific answer.
As Kobak noted, there's a 60-day claim period, and claims are in the process of being reviewed. He did not further elaborate on a timeline, but told the House committee that customers would like recover only 70 percent of their losses.

Woman sues Mitchell doctor
A Mitchell woman is suing a local doctor for malpractice.
The lawsuit says Kimberly Young, of 309 E. 11th Ave., Mitchell, visited Dr. Ronald Anderson May 13, 2011. Anderson found a small blood clot from endometriosis -- a condition in which cells from the uterus lining appear and grow outside the uterus.
On May 14, 2011, Anderson surgically removed the endometriosis.
Young claims she immediately suffered significant pain after surgery, but Anderson claims assured her everything was fine.
A few days afterward, Young's family doctor, Joseph Olegario, recommended she follow up with a gynecologist.
The next day, following further complications, Young went to an emergency room in Sioux Falls.
Dr. Scott L. Baker, of Surgical Institute of South Dakota in Sioux Falls, found a tissue tear.
Since the May 2011 surgery, Young's lawsuit says, she has had four surgeries to address the tear, all of which have been unsuccessful.
Young claims she continues to experience pain and suffering, incur related medical expenses, wage loss and financial hardship as a result of Anderson's alleged negligence. She also claims she suffered potential permanent impairment and disability, loss of enjoyment of life and emotional distress.
Young is asking for a jury trial, compensatory, general and special damages to be determined by a jury, for her costs and fees associated with the case, for prejudgment and post-judgment interest, and for such other relief the court deems proper, including recoverable costs relating to the lawsuit.
Anderson filed an answer to the lawsuit, denying all the claims of negligence and breach of the standard of care.
He admitted he saw Young as a client in 2013 for pain and diagnosed it as endometriosis and that he surgically removed it.
Anderson requested Young's complaint be dismissed with prejudice and that he recover his costs. He also demanded a jury trial.

We hear every day that Governor Brown wants money from the City of San Diego.
Here is not after the County of San Diego, and Mayor Sanders keeps saying we don't have any money and we are short on the budget so we need to shut down the city. A few numbers that you may want to know of the money we do have.
CalPeRs, State of California, value $230.1E9 with a 7.74% rate of return.

A few other things of intrest.
The GM bailout's government remaining shares will be sold at a 40% loss, that is a loss to the tax payers. China is now using i's National currency, Yuan to buy and sell exports and imports because the American Treasury notes to them are thought of as only being worth debt. U.S. firms are now shifting jobs offshore to feed it's $1.4E12 offshore economy that is used to reduce tax payment to the U.S..
Ref: The Wall Street Journal, 4/19/11
So why are the governments broke?. We are not working, not paying payroll taxes, he government pensions are holding all the money away from us and the government in New York and Offshore investments. So what is left?. A communist soup line with government cannable trying to eat us alive with fees and permit taxes with the sweat we have left. The religious genicide nut cases are getting rid of the poor and all we can do is rot away and grind our teeth to a dead God who feels we don't need money anyway, as all it wants is a body-less slave to collect the wealth of the heavens, or is it hell?.

(Once called the Wheeling Road.) This was the main highway for the wagon trains heading west. In the records of early explorers and surveyors of the western territory, Isaac's Inn is mentioned as "a good place to stay and partake of his excellent dinners of venison and wild turkeys, for he was a mighty hunter. Isaac built the first hewed log house in Washington Township. He also served on the first petitjury in the Maskingham County court of Common Pleas.

At one time Robert Pryor owned a store located at what is known as Pryor Ridge. The store was called the Pryor Post Office. Mail was picked up there and carried over to the Fleming, Ohio Post Office in Washington County. Many years after Robert's death one Alex Ormiston established a Post Office and kept a store for a short time. It was known as Ormiston Post Office. In 1892 Amos Pryor II, the grandson of Robert, had a contract to carry the mail from Ormiston Post Office to the Fleming, Ohio Post Office. Amos II carried the mail by horseback and he made three trios per week on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. He left the Ormiston Post Office at 3:30 PM and arrived at the Fleming Post Office around 5:45 PM. The original of "The Contract" is now in the possession of Elizabeth Pryor Curry.

TAMPA, Fla. -- Yankees closer Mariano Rivera was all smiles after throwing 18 pitches Thursday in his first simulated game since knee surgery last spring.
"I feel good," Rivera said. "I feel real good. Getting stronger and stronger."
The 43-year old pitched one inning against Yankees' minor leaguers. He also fielded and covered first base.
"That's what I wanted to do, field some bunts, go after some balls in between first and the mound," Rivera said.
Rivera pitched in nine games last year, his season ending when he tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee while tracking down a fly ball during batting practice in Kansas City on May 3. He had surgery on June 12 (see full story).
Not much hope for Astros, Marlins
KISSIMMEE, Fla. -- Spring training is supposed to be a time of hope.
Unless you're the Houston Astros. Or the Miami Marlins.
With no-name rosters and in the midst of massive rebuilding jobs, Houston and Miami are more likely to be remembered as among the worst teams in recent history than make an improbable run at the playoffs.
The Astros lost 107 games last year, after 106 defeats in 2011. Houston's main goal will be trying to avoid becoming the first team since the expansion New York Mets in the 1960s to lose at least 106 games in three straight seasons.
"No one expects us to do well," Lucas Harrell said Thursday, after pitching in a spring training game against the New York Yankees. "So, when we do well, it's going to be kind of like, `Oh, wow.' I definitely think we have a chance to shock a lot of people this year."
Brave words, especially when the Astros face the additional burden of moving from the NL into what looks like the toughest division in baseball, the AL West. They'll be matched regularly against two 2012 playoff teams -- Oakland and Texas -- plus the high-priced Los Angeles Angels, who have three of the game's most dynamic players: Albert Pujols, Josh Hamilton and Mike Trout (see full story).
Beltran, Westbrook hurt in Cards' win
JUPITER, Fla. -- Carlos Beltran and Jake Westbrook limped to the St. Louis Cardinals' clubhouse moments apart Thursday, which made manager Mike Matheny glad it was still only February.
Beltran bruised the little toe on his right foot when he was hit by a pitch in the first inning of the Cardinals' 8-2 victory over the Miami Marlins. Westbrook bruised his left leg below the knee on a grounder hit by Casey Kotchman in the second inning.
Beltran's X-rays were negative, but he said the injury was painful, and he was unsure whether it would affect his plans to play for Puerto Rico in the World Baseball Classic. Westbrook didn't undergo X-rays.
Beltran scored after being hit then left the game (see full story).

But when she smiles, you cannot resist her," Princess Mary said. Frederik added, "No, then you're like putty!" Mary said, "Christian is good at talking. We speak Danish with him most of the time, but he is learning more and more English, from my family and friends. He has it all under control."

Institutional Proposal
The Institutional Proposal guides the entire review process, which is a self-study focusing on "researchable questions" based on current issues germane to the university's mission. The self-study is also expected to address any recommendations made by the WASC Senior Commission during the last reaccreditation review. Three recommendations are highlighted in the Senior Commission's letter of March 6, 2001 reaffirming USD's accreditation.
In designing the proposal, institutions are encouraged to be creative, build on processes already in place, focus on a limited number of issues that can be addressed in depth, critique and refine the analysis and use of evidence collected by the institution, and significantly increase the institution's attention to student learning. The university is expected to engage the campus community in identifying issues to be explored.

So after a long time of looking and tweaking resumes, portfolios, cover letters, thousands of applications and networking I got a call and had an interview and a job offer not long after that.
If you are interested I would like to share my strategies what worked and what failed and hopefully other folks can post similar good news and how they got there.
Ask question and I will try to give honest complete answers.
The first thing to get the ball rolling is to describe the sequence of events surrounding the specific happy situation I am in.
On the AIA website I saw a posting for junior architect position, sent in a resume with a cover letter in the body of the email. This firm is in Southwestern Michigan Architecture and engineering. This was in October.
Monday the 19th I was helping deliver turkeys to the neighborhood residents with disables who could not get to the food pantries. This was part of the array of volunteer work that I was doing for the Leirman Neighborhood Action Committee, an organization that I was a leader and founding member. My phone rings and I take the call and then asked them if I can call them back later that evening since the box of frozen turkeys was thawing and the 10 folks volunteering needed to get going on the distribution. So I actually told a potential employer I can't talk now I'm distributing turkeys and food to needy residents with disabilities can I call you back later in the afternoon.
Later that day got an email they were busy but could I come up and interview here are the available times. I sent the email reply right away with three dates for them to choose.
November 21st get the confirmation email and then a call re confirming that I was coming.
Then I researched and got the names of the CEO and other firm leaders looked into Linked in Facebook and local papers for any noteworthy news. Read every page of the company website.
December 4th drove up for the interview
It went well had some interesting comments, the operations manager who called while delivering turkeys apparently got a kick out of the situation and shared this with the department manager, they mentioned that I appeared to have little experience, skills and a lack of focus but the community service I was engaged in and the references I had from those events and the news articles I sent web links for got them interested, I was able to explain my diverse activities as evidence of my ability to manage my time and prioritize my efforts to maximum effect. I also asked a lot of questions, what markets are they expanding into what markets are they retracting from, where have they looked for work and suggested a few places to find clients. I also think the freelance work I was doing and my comments about enjoying the chase as much as doing the design work for each client also had left a good impression.
One thing I did not do is talk about the job opportunity as a way to help me, I was interested in helping the company helping my future boss and coworkers get the work done with less overtime, helping the community and helping the firm succeed in bringing in more clients and diversifying their business while working within their existing skills and expertise
Drove home emailed thank you replies to the two folks interviewing, also printed a thank you note tri-folded with images in each fold of the portfolio images they commented on during the interview.
December 6th get am email asking for a follow-up conversation and if I was available that after noon, sent an email I am available any time no more turkeys to juggle.
December 11th no call so I called them
December 12 early evening 6:00 ish they call and make offer
They were really busy and wanted to get in touch sooner but had to get work out the door.
So this is the story I start in January what do you folks looking for work want to know?
Over and OUT
Peter N
I have to get paid first.
Starbucks is always hiring.
Congrats on the new job.
Congratulations - you created the Karma by helping out - it's not luck or accident
Monday the 19th I was helping deliver turkeys to the neighborhood residents with disables who could not get to the food pantries. This was part of the array of volunteer work that I was doing for the Leirman Neighborhood Action Committee.

The "Over and OUT" kid got a job. Congrats.
Make sure you end each day with that phrase. Also all professional e-mail correspondence.
My phrase is "Boom waka waka pow". But yours is ok as well.
*fabricating a turkey incident to mention about the next time I get called for an interview*
Good job, I remember you in some my depressing threads. How long have you been looking for a job? Maybe my turn will be next? Going on 3.5 years now.... :-/
Congratulations. Now you can start worrying about when you're going to get laid off.
you mentioned, you tweaked your resume, cover letter and portfolio many times. what you think was different in your application from your previous submissions? what worked this time to provoke their interest in you?
I did not fabricate I sent them links to real news articles. Trust but verify.
Always be ready for a job search, you may out grow your firm or they might have a run of bad luck.
Spend one afternoon each month keeping the resume and portfolio up to date.
Always ask for copies of the drawing sets you work on and take them home if you have permission. I had drawing sets from each employer to show when I interviewed and that helped. IF you are concerned about lugging a huge log of paper into an interview try printing half-size sets and only the pages you need to use to demonstrate your technical ability, wall sections, stair details, elevations. Window schedules and floor plans to some extent may not be as important to show them so edit a little. Don't wait to do this when you finish a project ask for copies.
Also file your IDP early and often if you have to leave you may have a hard time getting experience verified so don't let 5-6 month accumulate. File every 8 weeks.
Quentin P.
I was looking since spring 2008 had three short gigs and freelance work during that time.
I have to admit that a lot of mistakes were made that may have caused my search to go on too long.
First I have to say I started out with only applications online, this is not the most useful way to go about it yet the job that I landed was found this way. 3,456 applications, 21 interviews 100s of networking events.
You have to stop treating each application like it is the one, don't dwell or daydream because each day that goes by will erode you ego and squelch your spirit. Become methodical become efficient. 3,456 rejections is a lot to take but once you realize that it is not a personal attack or a failure on your part then you learn how to move on. Why you get turned down maybe for any number of reasons many are beyond your control.
However you do need to spend the appropriate amount of time on each application. I used a cover letter template and inserted names and titles of the person then I had a section in the template to add or remove experience. The cover letter was part of the body of the email with the resume attached as a PDF.
Cool cool, good stuff. Happy for you.
I have 26 resumes that I use at a given time. 3 versions with different information and different numbers of samples from my portfolio one is technical, one is design oriented, one is a blend. Each version has the same resolution just different numbers of pages and different sizes. 2mb -10mb in each category so my 3mb resume was a PDF labeled PeterNormandResume 3MB and was just under 3 MB in size. This made it so much easier to send applications since all I have to customize is the cover letter and then select the appropriate resume version and size that I preassembled. I update the resume each quarter making changes.
Some of the things I did that were not so effective, I tried to include a detailed narrative under each job I had that was architectural in nature, this is not a good idea resumes have to be a fast read quick and efficient. Ask yourself what does the reader want to know?
I put my skills first AutoCAD 14years, Revit 4 and then in a second column I listed the building types under $32,000,000 in built work including affordable housing, commercial, industrial and so on. This helped and made a huge difference in the response rate
Then work history in chronological order. If the job was not architecture related it was not mentioned.
A few jobs are just one line Summer Ta for architecture summer camp 2006 and that was all.
LEED AP logo on each page with header and contact info just in case pages get separated.
I did not include a personal statement career objectives or a narrative about my interest this is covered in the cover letter but I do have a section on volunteer activities where I list organizations charities and brief description of the roles I played if they are significant.
So for example
WEFT Community Radio for East Central Illinois 2004-2008
Member Board of Directors 2006-2008, Treasurer 2007-2008, Associates Executive Committee Member 2005-2006, Weekly Radio Show Host and Producer 2005-2007
I treated my volunteer experience similar to a job description marking accomplishments in order of importance.
One thing that did get some attention I listed my IDP experience on my resume, in interviews they asked about it and I said I had 623hours 45 minutes to go and they were impressed that I was serious about becoming a registered architect. I later changed my resume and made this a part of the references and employer contacts PDF that I send as a follow-up if requested.
The most recent and risky thing I did was to include a large timeline graphic showing how the layers of academic, volunteer, professional, and survival jobs played out over the last few years and that I stay busy balancing work learning and community service. This fits on a vertical layout on the left third of the first page of the resume, it is color coded to scale and the folks interviewing me described it as interesting, artistic and memorable.
This is risky, technical small non design focused firms don't get this graphic but I was surprised at the positive response. This was an interesting way to include design and graphic skills on what would otherwise be a text document. It did make my resume two pages.
My resume was three pages of way too much text. I trimmed it down and asked a friend to read it cover to cover if it takes more than 5 minutes it is too long.
Also references I have 12 references that I can use at any time, always check your references, have someone call them or email to check that they are responding and responding in a positive way. I send a combination of 6 two that are geographically closest any references that a member of the firm has a connection to and I usually get to 6 before digging too deep, never more than three academic references. I try to keep in mind their vacation plans so that references are left off if they are out of town for a while.
I put the timeline up on my portfolio page here on Archinect too
wow i read some of these comments i hope everybody finds a job

HP OpenVMS Systemsask the wizard
The Question is:
Are there other sysgen parameters dependant on bytlm ?
The Answer is :
The BYTLM qualifer "Specifies the buffered I/O byte limit for the BYTLM field of the UAF record. The buffered I/O byte limit is the maximum number of bytes of nonpaged system dynamic memory that a user's job can consume at one time. Nonpaged dynamic memory is used for operations such as I/O buffering, mailboxes, and file-access windows. The default is 32768 on VAX systems and 64000 on Alpha systems." "NPAGEDYN sets the size of the nonpaged dynamic pool in bytes. This figure is rounded down to an integral number of pages. NPAGEDYN establishes the initial setting of the nonpaged pool size, but the pool size can be increased dynamically. To set a value for this parameter, use AUTOGEN initially, and then monitor the amount of space actually used with the DCL command SHOW MEMORY/POOL/FULL..."

MPR News did an in-depth review of the Republican Party of Minnesota's finances and found former Chair Tony Sutton's spending on GOP insiders is one of the reasons the party is $2 million in debt. Some of the spending includes:
-More than $1 million in payments to Trimble and Associates since 2008. Tony Trimble, who oversaw the 2008 U.S. Senate recount and the 2010 gubernatorial recount, said he only did the work party leaders requested and defended the "discounted rate" he billed the MNGOP. But Republican National Committeewoman Pat Anderson says she's shocked by the size of the legal bills and said Trimble will no longer work for the party.
-A $14,000 bonus to the party's executive director, Ryan Griffin, in July, 2010.
-$10,000 went to a researcher to study the efficacy of medical marijuana in September of 2010 (The heat of the 2010 race).
-$221,000 went to a Minneapolis-based public relations firm to rebrand the party. One of the people who worked on the contract was briefly hired to be the party's communications director when Sutton was first elected chair.
-$5,000 was directed to a private investigator to study whether any election fraud occurred in 2010.
-$70,000 to GOP state Sen. David Thompson to do media consulting for the party.
Sutton told MPR News he should have curtailed spending when the fundraising was keeping pace. He said a big problem was the elimination of the Political Contribution Refund in 2009. A look at state campaign finance reports show that small donor giving dropped off dramatically since then.
Tidbit: The 14-member executive committee met late last night to discuss the party's finances. It was the first meeting since political consultant Pat Shortridge took over as party chair. Party leaders say they agreed to do an internal review of some of the party's expenses as they try to dissect what happened over the past two and a half years.
Republican National Committeewoman Pat Anderson tweeted that Bron Scherer has been appointed secretary-treasurer of the party.
Under the Dome
House and Senate Republicans released their vision to change how state government is run. The so-called Reform 2.0 includes several GOP policies that have been pushed in the past but also includes a few new ideas like a plan would allow for the conversion of failing public schools to charter schools and allow the mayors of Minneapolis and St. Paul to take control of struggling schools in their cities. Here's a list of their suggestions.
MinnPost says Republicans were skittish on the stadium and Amy Koch's affair.
GOP Senate Majority Leader Dave Senjem says he doesn't plan to file an ethics complaint on the Koch matter.
Lawmakers held a hearing on state worker payouts.
Minnesota state government was unable to take calls on Thursday for three hours.
Gov. Dayton appeared on Midday on Thursday. It was host Gary Eichten's last call-in broadcast. Dayton announced on the show that today will be proclaimed "Gary Eichten Day in Minnesota." Listen to the program here.
Minnesota Attorney General Lori Swanson is suing Chicago-based Accretive Health, alleging that it failed to protect patient health care records and failed to disclose to patients how their records are used.
The child care union vote now faces a federal lawsuit.
The House swore in DFLer Susan Allen on Thursday. Senator-elect Kari Dziedzic's swearing-in ceremony will be held today.
The DNR announced a wolf management plan.
Minnesota's jobless rate improved to 5.7 percent in December. The biggest employment gains came in the professional and business services sector.
Financing for Essar Steel is in place.
Vikings Stadium
Stadium supporters are hoping for resolution this session.
Dayton says the Vikings would have to pay $450 million for the Basilica site.
The stadium focus is now before a divided Minneapolis City Council.
The Pi Press says Ramsey County needs a Hail Mary to get the stadium built there.
Suicides by active-duty soldiers hit an all-time high.
Google says 7 million people have signed a petition opposing SOPA.
DFL Sen. Amy Klobuchar campaigned in Bemidji earlier this week.
DFL Sen. Al Franken discussed the economy and energy issues during a speech in Duluth.
GOP Rep. John Kline will hold a town hall meeting in Shakopee on Jan. 30.
Race for Congress
The DCCC announced what Minnesotans have known for quite some time: GOP Rep. Chip Cravaack (MN-8) will be a targeted candidate in 2012.
Race for President
A fiery debate ended a bizarre campaign day in South Carolina.
Rick Perry dropped out of the race and then backed Newt Gingrich.
Gingrich's ex-wife told ABC News that Gingrich wanted an "open marriage."
Gingrich attacked the media as he defended himself.
Gingrich paid $994,000 in taxes in 2010.
It looks like Rick Santorum, not Mitt Romney, won Iowa's caucuses.
Former Gov. Tim Pawlenty is now lowering expectations for Romney in South Carolina.
Pawlenty also played the bad cop (to Romney's good cop) by saying Gingrich's infidelities concern him.
MPR's Gary Eichten is retiring today after 45 years of services at the radio station. I'm honored to have worked with him covering political issues across Minnesota. I'll miss his laugh in the newsroom, his modesty and the standards he sets for us. I'm happy to call him my friend.

Olivia hates the singles scene, so when her best guy friend, Ian, offers to be her plus one to a series of weddings she has to attend, she agrees. Although she doesn't want to complicate their lifelong friendship, she can't pass up the chance to have a steady date without the dating drama. What she doesn't expect is to now find Ian so incredibly sexy.
When Ian sees his old friend Olivia dolled up for wedding number one, the boyhood crush he once nurtured transforms into smoldering attraction. It doesn't take long for their no-strings arrangement to turn physical. But as Olivia's desire to stay "just friends" becomes clear, Ian's feelings are deepening. In the time they have together, how will Ian convince Olivia that one plus one can make for a lifelong pair?

"Well written but completely done to death"
The story while written well was one that we've all heard 10,000 times. This story brings absolutely nothing new to the table. Nothing in this book jumped out and you and made you go OH MY GOD! At the end of the book you were left feeling, eh okay. I guess they were nice enough people but you didn't really care either way.
It was an okay book. It really didn't have any flaws in terms of writing. The only real problem was just that it was boring and the same old tired story rehashed again and again with absolutely nothing new ... no twists or unexpected turns.
I really enjoy the world of books! Narration just add layers to that world... don't u think? :)
"Great Great Great!"
Best Friends becoming lovers! Soooo good. Well this was like best friends brother and best friend becoming lovers technically. I loved this. No much of a great plot...but a typical love story. I loved the hotel scene when they finally do it. SOoo cute and romantic.
Good credit...

Ask a Lawyer and Get Answers to Your Legal Questions
Thank you for your question. Please permit me to assist you with your concerns.Congratulations on obtaining part-time employment. If you are now part-time, your unemployment benefit may be lowered and affected based on how much you work part time. Here is a great summary of all benefits and requirements, including your requirement to continue to look for work, as well as an explanation as to how your benefits may be lowered due to part-time employment. The new employer does not take over your current ui benefits, at least not right away, you would need to first work there long enough to obtain minimum level of benefits from the employer to apply and obtain such benefits directly.http://www.edd.ca.gov/pdf_pub_ctr/de1275a.pdfGood luck.
Thank you for your follow-up. My apologies if I was unclear.Any part-time employment that you obtain can affect the amount you receive from unemployment. While it cannot affect your eligibility, it can affect your check amount if you are found eligible for benefits. Depending on how much you earn part-time it may lower your full unemployment benefits that you will receive from the state if you are found eligible. So while it will not jeopardize your claim, it can financially affect it.Good luck.
Thank you for your follow-up.I am sorry but that I cannot tell you with specific detail. For part-time employment your benefits are still based on the full amount that you are entitled to based on past unemployment. For example, let me assume that based on your past employment, you are entitled to a check of $400 a week of benefits. You now work part-time and make $350 a week. Your unemployment benefit may still be sent to you, but it would be a partial benefit--if for example the regulations state that unemployment benefits lower your amounts received by 50% after each $100 earned, then the $250 difference would be split in half, and that half would be withheld from your check. Instead of receiving the $400 check, you would receive a $275 check and your $350 check form your part-time employment.Good luck.
Thank you for your follow-up.My ui claim that I am about to get is for ui benefits will I have to submitt a new claim for partial ui benefits since I got a part time job?No, you will need to disclose your weekly income to the unemployment agency and they will calculate and potentially reduce your weekly benefit automatically. Right now edd ows me 3 months worth of benefits since I won my appeal but i have one more phone interview before I get my reimburstment for previous months. Did I jepordize recieving back pay by getting this part time job? No, you did not. Past benefits that may be owed, provided you were not working during that point, can still be awarded. Benefits going forward, if you are employed, would be potentially reduced based on the amount of time and the amount of money you receive as compensation.Good luck and kindly do not forget to positively rate my answers to you so that I may obtain credit for assisting you this evening. Thank you!
Thank you for your follow-up and you are most welcome.The Califoria Unemployment Insurance Code resides at the link below: http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/.html/uic_table_of_contents.htmlYou can find the specific calculations on how the benefits are evaluated, and also the length of time from which to which you would be entitled to receive benefits. I would be happy to try to clarify further, but this is the whole code that you were likely seeking.Good luck!

Adobe Acrobate Reader Requires A Plugin-That Requires Open LDAP That Requires Berkely
Hi all,
I installed Adobe reader from Adobe's site, as the Adobe readers that come with slack don't support the digital signing correctly and I need to use that.
So I put in Adobe reader, launch it and get a plug-in load error. It's actually in the readme of the reader and I missed it, but none the less I decided to go out and get the OpenLDAP that it want's only to find that I have to compile it from source, but that requires the install of the Berkely DB.
So I put in the latest Berkely from source, went in without hitch. But when I did configure on Openldap it said 'version mismatch' so I did the 'make uninstall' of berkley and got an older version of it..version 4.2.52 and put that in. Again no errors. I do configure on openldap and get a little further but it gives me this:
Thank you in advance.
Oh I know there is an openldap on linuxpackages...but the md5sum's are not good or the file is corrupted..I did report it to linuxpackages so they know.
Old_Fogie, do you require that plug-in for your needs or not? If not, you can simply disable it (chmod -x), that's what I did.
I'm not really sure if I will need it or not. According to Adobe's web-site, that plug-in has a lot to do with digital signatures in the files themselves and they leave me to believe that without it's functionality could be big problems.
Now I do receive digitally signed files. I've opened some previous files sent to me and so far, even tho I get the plug-in error on open Adobe, I can still run the adobe and view the files. I'd just like to get it right you know.
I suspect that you can still read signed files but cannot verify them. More of a problem is filling in a form and submitting it with your own signature. The income tax form here has to be filled in on Acrobat Reader 7.05 on XP/2000 with a government issued personal digital signature
Hi Old_Fogie
I'll create an openldap package for Slackware 10.2 when I am back at my machine. You will find it in my SlackBuilds repos later today I hope.
Update: I've uploaded an openldap-client package for Slackware 10.2, which should be sufficient to solve your acrobat reader problem (and also started gpg signing my packages, thanks to Old_Fogie's discussion about trust in another topic :-)
I use the reader package and just ignore the popup.
chmod -x Reader/intellinux/plug_ins/PPKLite.api
Thanks man. I didn't even look into it since I'm so used to hating Adobe that I just ignored it. But your suggestion worked great.
Eric....WOW !!!
The gpg key worked like a charm. The package worked like a charm. Fresh install of Adobe worked like a charm. No error's.
To say thank you is an understatement. You repeatedly do such a great service to me and others.
How do we tell moderator's of forums to put this as sticky?
Thank you again.
