Getting Easy Money
Pick "Turf War." Then go to loot grab. Then pick the forest level, go below that and pick the "Cookie Toss" mission. When you get your "contraband" Since there are only three places where the "contraband" will be. Go up the hill in front of where you pick up the stolen goodies. There should be a dirt path, follow that, until you get to where you have to drop the "contraband" off. Then jump off making sure that you jump over the red or blue flare. That's how you save money
Waterfall Tunnel
I found a cool tunnel that at the end, you fly through and out of a waterfall. First start the game in Joy Rider,2 player. Play in the Forest. When you start, in front of you is a river. Go right, and follow the river until you get to a waterfall. When you are looking directly at the waterfall, you will see a path that leeds up to the top of the waterfall. Go up that path. When you get to the top, keep following the path until you get to the end of what looks like a forest like half pipe. To your right will be 2 bridges. Go to the second one, the one that does not have a roof over it. Drive across the bridge and right when you get across, in the top left hand part of your screen, there will be a pretty good sized hill. On the other side of ther hill, which is not the far at all, there is the tunnel. Go into it. You will start to go down, then up, and make a few turns. But at the end, is where you FLY OF A WATERFALL a neat little trick is to have 2 players, and one of them watches the front of the waterfall while the other flies out, and you can see a car suddenly shoot out of the waterfall, it is pretty cool.
Desert Level Hidden Tunnels also highest point
Joy ride Military vehicle recommended From where you start, drive over the hills where you see the windmills....go over the hills and you will see a road...follow the road towards the border check point....follow the road as it pasts the post office and a couple of backpackers....follow the road till it ends and take a right....drive through the dried up pond until you see a tunnel....drive through the tunnel and you will end up in a "valley" follow the dirt tracks until you get to another tunnel but don't go into it, instead take a right up a steep hill...once your at the top, go under the boulders and follow the road that leads to a "pit"...drive off into the pit and you'll see a hidden tunnel...drive through the tunnel and you will end up in another "pit" drive into the pit and you'll notice another hidden tunnel....you can go into the tunnel and take a serious dive right over the post office the one you past on your way here or....you can stay in the "pit".. cause this is where you can climb the side to get to the "top" of the desert mountains...trust me on this....there is a way to get up there...just use a car that is strong ieThe Hummer. Once your up there you'll notice a black wall...thats the end of the map you will also notice there are a lot of traps up there so be careful.. Notice how high you are
Desert level Hidden area
Go to the bottom of the staircase has a stone bridge over it, drive up the staircase, make a sharp left after passing under the stone bridge. continue around to the left and climb the hill. You should be able to drive up and on top of the stone bridge, use a strong car. Cross the bridge, Carefully You will enter a small dune area and a trench that goes pretty far. It will drop you into the snake like dune area.
Another cool spot is the Massive jump.It is located by the telephone poles, up against the canyon walls. The best way to describe the area is that its almost the complete opposite side of the world that you start on in free ride mode.There is a hidden road that will climb pretty high up, follow this to a huge pit area with a big ass jump in it.

PRZOOM - /newswire/ -
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, 2010/12/16 - The car navigation systems market in four ASEAN countries Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 33.5 per cent (2009-2015) to reach 1.7 million units in 2015, says Frost & Sullivan.
New analysis from Frost & Sullivan (automotive.frost.com), Strategic Analysis of ASEAN Market for Navigation Systems, finds that personal navigation devices (PNDs) will remain as the most popular car navigation system, accounting for more than 95 per cent of the total navigation market in the four ASEAN countries due to affordable pricing and high functionality.
Mr. Masaki Honda, Senior Consultant, Automotive & Transportation Practice, Asia Pacific said that new features such as 3D views and junction views are becoming standard features in PNDs.
He added that PNDs also incorporates non-navigation features such as MP3, FM transmitter and Bluetooth.
"Navigation device providers are promoting car navigation systems, especially PNDs, through media and exhibitions, and consumers are becoming more aware of the convenience navigation systems in the cars,' he said.
Mr. Honda also said that currently, PND dominates the market in South East Asia due to its affordable price. PND prices are expected to reduce further due to reducing component prices such as chips, he added.
He also said that original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) are expected to increase production of models with embedded navigation systems but it will still remain niche, mainly due to its high price.
"With line-fit embedded systems costing 30 to 50 times more than PNDs, vehicle manufacturers tend to shy away from providing them as standard specifications, resulting in a penetration rate of just 1.8 percent in the total new car population in 2009, Mr. Honda said.
He added that PNDs have more advantages than embedded systems, not only in terms of cost, but also functions and availability.
Mr. Honda noted that currently, navigation systems are considered as "nice-to-have items by consumers as they do not need navigation systems when they drive roads which they know.
However, real time information such as toll, traffic jams, accidents, available parking space will change navigation systems to "must have items as they use navigation systems even on the road which they know, he added.

14 Seniors Qualify for National Merit Recognition
Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
By Ali Pinhasi, News Editor
Fourteen students, representing more than 10% of Beachwood's senior class, received honors from the National Merit Scholarship Program (NMSQP) this year.
Six of the students are semi-finalists, including Maxwell Barnett, Ilana Blumin, Wooyoung Lee, Aaron Shifrin, James Starkman and Erlein Tacastacas.
Eight are commended students, including Lizzie Bream, Robbie Kaufman, Jake Lowenkamp, Jon Sender, Julia Winkeler and Max Yanowitz.
Toni Nicholas and Nick Greene were recognized as outstanding participants.
"This is a huge deal," said Principal Ed Klein. "You don't see this number come up a lot." This percentage of students given honors is rare because when the kids were entered into the competition, their scores were ranked among an approximate 1.5 million other students who also took the PSAT.
All BHS students who took the PSAT were automatically entered into the competition. Out of the 1.5 million students who take the test each year, the top 50,000 scorers are recognized. Those who are ranked into the competition are notified through the mail. Of the 50,000 recognized students, 34,000 of the kids are commended. 16,000 students from the commended students are semi-finalists. 15,000 students of those 15,000 are notified as finalists and compete for one of 8,300 spots for a $2,500 scholarship.
Lizzie Bream explained, "It's a win-win situation because I'm honored and I don't have to do much work."
Though the competition is something that colleges pay attention to and is, as Klein said, "something you can brag about", it seems not to have affected the students much.
Nick Greene explained, "It doesn't affect where I'm going to college."
This number reflects on both the students and on the school. "[The number] shows the high quality and caliber of both the teaching and learning [taking place at our school]," Principal Klein said.

Wall Street's reputation teetering after JP Morgan Chase stint
The Skeptical Chymist SALT LAKE CITY, UTMay 22, 2012 2:17 p.m.
Twin Lights said: "A modernized version of Glass–Steagall is needed. Period." I could not agree more!! We were safe from financial meltdowns that endangered the financial health of the country for over 60 years because of the Glass-Steagall Act. Its unwise repeal in 1999 through the Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act allowed the banks to gamble with their depositors money. They were able to reap their private profits, but because they were too big to fail, we had to collectively take the losses. The country still has not recovered. I am categorically against this system of privatizing the profits while socializing the losses. Banks are too important to the health of the economy to be allowed to gamble with their depositors money.
The real problem is that the campaign finance system lets the banks buy Congressmen and Senators. It has happened with both Democrats and Republicans, and the Republican hero of the moment, Mitt Romney, even wants to repeal the totally insufficient Dodd-Frank Act. We need more stringent, not fewer regulations of the financial sector!
Irony Guy Bountiful, UtahMay 22, 2012 1:56 p.m.
DNews, you're losing credibility if you can't tell the difference between "deep-seated" and "deep-seeded." Did you fire all your proofreaders in the latest purge?
LDS Liberal Farmington, UTMay 22, 2012 1:40 p.m.
They have nothing to fear....
JPMorgan now "owns" Utah Senator Mike Lee.
RedShirt USS Enterprise, UTMay 21, 2012 4:23 p.m.
To "Fitness Freak" the irony is that prior to the 1940's banks had fewer regulations than they do now, yet none became "too big". It wasn't until the government regulated bad business practices to banks that they began to be problematic, things like subprime loans and derivatives.
The idea of "too big to fail" is just a scare tactic. If one of the mega banks collapsed, it would be painful, and take a few years to settle out. The problem is that the government is afraid to allow us to feel the impact of failure. Think of it like an old growth forest. Eventually the trees are so old and diseased that they are a hazard to the rest of the forest. Rather than proping up and trying to save the old tree, it is better for the forest as a whole if they come down and allow the younger more vibrant trees to take over.
You have stated what the biggest problem is these days. We have a very huge lack of enforcement of federal laws by the federal government, from banking to immigration.
SEY Sandy, UTMay 21, 2012 3:48 p.m.
I'm afraid that any attempts at banking reform will be about as effective as "The Little Dutch Boy" who plugged the leak in the dike with his thumb. Problem is, the leaks are global (as CLM pointed out) and too-big-to-plug. The derivates virus has infected banks and investments on just about every continent (at least in the Western world). The extent of the coming damage is beyond the ability of most of us to predict or comprehend. Simply stated, it's too late to fix it. All we can do is hang on as the flood waters rush in.
Mark B Eureka, CAMay 21, 2012 3:27 p.m.
If asked which industry will be the site of the next disaster, financial or otherwise, I would need just one clue - Which industry is spending the most on Congress, lobbying for votes to give it LESS regulation? Whatever Dimon says to Congress, his industry's lobbyists will be delivering the REAL message, "let us alone, and there will be money in it for you." You can bet every one of those Tea Party "reformers" will be listening, because it takes money to keep your seat.
Fitness Freak Salt Lake City, UTMay 21, 2012 2:32 p.m.
"Redshirt" When Glass-Steagall act was repealed it allowed banks to become "too big to fail" thus, the TARP bailouts. Having so much of the liquidity concentrated in so few hands caused politicians (both parties)to become beholden to the cries of the banking industry.
IF banks would have been allowed to fail; I would probably agree with you. But they weren't.
I do agree that there are MANY regulations in the banking industry, but they obviously aren't working, or aren't enforced.
Maybe the answer is fewer regulations, but MORE enforcement?
Owl Salt Lake City, UTMay 21, 2012 2:29 p.m.
Too late. Their reputation exploded three years ago and is no longer teetering, it has crashed. Ivy League geniuses, too smart to fail, Wall Street whizkids, "ethical business practices" and other labels faded long ago.
CLM Draper, UTMay 21, 2012 1:01 p.m.
The problem with reinstating Glass-Stegall (or even the Volcker Rule designed to stop speculative trades) is that global economy has grown exponentially since the 1930s when the Glass-Stegall act was put into place. The huge scale and complexity of 21st century world economy as well as financial sectors such as Wall Street means that simply separating investment banking from commercial banking will give only an appearance of lowered risks and could obscure underlying risks in the system.
The derivatives market has become almost impossible to detangle. It's useless to tell commercial banks they can be involved only in non-speculative derivatives. The derivatives market is now so big and complicated that it is near impossible to ascertain a derivative's default risk.
A huge problem with no easy answers. As another poster lamented elsewhere, "Thanks again, Leviathan!"
RedShirt USS Enterprise, UTMay 21, 2012 12:32 p.m.
Why do we need to regulate things further? What investment is 100% secure?
To "Fitness Freak" what deregulation are you talking about? In the past 30 years when banks have been "deregulated" it actually added regulations to the specific portions of investment banks being deregulated.
Did you know that the Banking Industry is more regulated than the healthcare industry? Did you know that those are the two most regulated industries and coincidentially are the same industries that politicians complain about the most? Could there be a relationship between regulation and how big of a problem an industry is accorind to politicians?
Hank Pym SLC, UTMay 21, 2012 10:29 a.m.
@ Fitness Freak
"I don't see anything at all wrong with going back to regulating banks. The only "winners" in bank deregulation have been the banks, NOT consumers."
Again, repeal Gramm-Leach-Billey & Reinstitute Glass-Stegall.
Jim Cramer (CNBC) at one point put (JPMC CEO) Dimon on a pedestal... Now that is a fate worse than a Corleone kiss of death.
Fitness Freak Salt Lake City, UTMay 21, 2012 10:11 a.m.
I don't see anything at all wrong with going back to regulating banks.
The only "winners" in bank deregulation have been the banks, NOT consumers.
BUT - the bigger issue here is for shareholders, especially large pension fund shareholders to become more involved in "self-regulating" banks and other large companies via their votes which was intended in the first place.
Banks (or any business) MUST be allowed to fail in order for shareholders to begin doing their "due diligence". Up to now that hasn't happened.
Mountanman Hayden, IDMay 21, 2012 9:55 a.m.
Marxist: Why is it "ok" if the federal government loses billions of other people's money (Solindra scam, GSA scandal, fast and furious debacle, secret service prostitution melt down, TSA wastes and on and on) but we go nuts if Wall Street has a problem? I am not saying J.P Morgan is innocent but why do we demand justice with them and not with the sins of the government? And by the way, didn't Obama bailout out J.P Morgan? Why are we not angry about the billions of taxpayer funds that were wasted? I wish we could be as demanding of purity with our government as we are with Wall Street!
Twin Lights Louisville, KYMay 21, 2012 5:16 a.m.
Trust cannot and will not be fully restored until there are some regulatory firewalls and safety valves are in place.
Yes, banks like JP Morgan can absorb a shock of this size. But what about other banks?
We cannot depend on banks to self-regulate. This should be obvious by now. A modernized version of Glass–Steagall is needed. Period.
We keep fooling ourselves into thinking that we have entered a new era of banking and economic enlightenment. It is simply a lie each generation falls into because we want to believe we can do what we want without consequence.
"What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun."
marxist Salt Lake City, UTMay 21, 2012 12:49 a.m.
I know what to do. Let's have the Fed shovel money into JP Morgan while we slash medicare. Sound fair to me!

Sailing lessons teach you to navigate choppy waters or awkward conversations during unnaturally still waters. Weather any storm with this Groupon.
$65 for a Two-Hour Semiprivate Intro to Sailing Class ($155 Value)
Certified instructors guide groups of up to four fledgling mariners through a two-hour course detailing the basics of sailing. Pupils learn about everything from boat anatomy to hydrodynamics and aerodynamics, after which groups take to Lake Michigan for on-the-water instruction.
Milwaukee Community Sailing Center
In 1977, a group of Milwaukee's sailors responded to its city's lack of a public sailing institution by banding together with county officials to create a not-for-profit organization accessible to everyone. The Milwaukee Community Sailing Center has continued to uphold this original vision of granting everyone—regardless of age, physical ability, or financial means—a chance to develop sailing skills while exploring Lake Michigan's aqueous expanses. Since its founding, it has imparted its knowledge upon upwards of 100,000 student via hands-on classes and private lessons.
Throughout the summer's balmy months, Milwaukee Community Sailing Center's experienced and certified staff can be found reviewing boat safety with students during on-shore lessons or calling out instructions to their trainees from within a sailboat cruising around the lake. As winter's frigid winds rage across the city, a host of off-season winter sessions enables skippers to keep their sea legs toned until spring returns. Bobbing cheerfully in the onsite marina, the center's seaworthy fleet is comprised of more than 80 meticulously maintained vessels, including sturdy dinghies, cruisers, and saddled-up krakens. The center's dedication to bringing the community together on the water is further evidenced in its outreach programs, including one designed to help Milwaukee's at-risk youth turn a new leaf by helping them uncover hidden talents, develop leadership skills, and conquer their fears.

Nadia G is young, funny, and can cook up a storm in 3-inch cherry stilettos. Hailed as the "Julia Child of the Net generation," she is the creator and host of Cooking Channel's hit series Nadia G's Bitchin' Kitchen (http://bitchinlifestyle.tv), the original online design series, Sick Kitchens, and the new series, Bite This (Cooking Channel, July 2014). Hilarious, informative and deliciously demented, this stylish comedienne-chef is unlike any personality on TV. From cooking and comedy, to design and travel, Nadia G. embraces the funny side of everyday life situations, turning them into occasions worth celebrating – with great food and big laughs.
Nadia G Blazing Trails
An early pioneer of the online entertainment industry, Nadia's engaged social media following primarily consists of the highly coveted young adult demographic. Launched as a 3-minute mobile show, Nadia G's Bitchin' Kitchen quickly gained the attention of mainstream broadcast media. In 2010 it premiered as the brand defining series on Food Network Canada and Cooking Channel in the US, making it the first ever online lifestyle entertainment brand to successfully transition from internet to primetime.
Set in a candy-colored kitchen decked out in animal print and leather, Bitchin' Kitchen ushered in a new alternative to the standard cooking show with accessible, inspiring recipes to suit nearly any life situation – all peppered with her signature 'Nadvice.' Whipping up the perfect blend of food and humor, Nadia likes to say, "We showed the world that there were millions who weren't being served by vanilla cooking shows. Millions who were hungry for double dark chocolate with fleur de sel."
Beyond Bitchin' Kitchen
In July, Cooking Channel added Nadia G's new travel series, Bite This, to their primetime line-up. An unparalleled fusion of food, travel and comedy, the show follows Nadia and the gang as they create an immersive story featuring the coolest chefs, hidden gems and signature flavors of the USA's greatest cities.
Swapping her leopard-print apron with a hard hat, she also hosts the original online series Sick Kitchens -- the most watched design show on ulive com. Known for the coolest, self-designed digs on her Bitchin' Kitchen set, in Sick Kitchens, Nadia brings her design swagger on the road, tearing down walls and teaching viewers how to make their own kitchens "sick" along the way.
Bitchin' Across the Globe
An instant hit across the US and Canada, Bitchin' Kitchen was introduced to Food Network UK in 2013. After just a few weeks on-air, Nadia held the top ratings spot for female talent on the network and is ranked third show overall. Nadia is also the author of two best-selling cookbooks: Cookin' For Trouble (Ballantine) in which she shares recipes and cooking tips for home cooks. The book provides a creative menu, with chapters like (Dysfunctional) Family Pizza Night, Girl's Night In and Hi-Speed Suppers. Nadia G's first book, The Bitchin' Kitchen Cookbook: Rock Your Kitchen and Let the Boys Clean Up the Mess (skirt!, 2009), provides delectable recipes and hilarious anecdotes showing how even the most novice cooks can recreate Nadia's bitchin' cuisine.
Nadia G's Homegrown Food Philosophy
Fearlessness, patience, creativity and love are Nadia G's secret ingredients and her kitchen code to success! Trained at the culinary institute of Hard Wooden Spoon Whacks, her passion for food and cooking came from growing up in a boisterous Italian family who never quite gave up the belief that Casalinga-style cuisine is the center of the universe.
In addition to being a chef-comedienne and design extraordinaire, Nadia G is a social media maven with her web platforms generating millions of interactions every month. When not appearing on national TV shows like Queen Latifah, The Talk, and the Today Show or racking up accolades such as "Outstanding Entertainer" and "Best Comedy" in the 2013 Taste Awards, "Most Addictive Reality Star" from the 2012 LOGO's NewNowNext Awards and more, this Montreal-native enjoys working out her rock solid abs and writing comedy songs such as her viral hit, "Brooklyn Hipster Brunch." As Nadia G says, "It's all about making cooking fun and inspiring a new generation to rock their kitchen!"

The Petersen Museum had a big upgrade a few years ago and I was looking forward to seeing it again. The last time I was there, I found it to be an interesting place and it certainly had a lot of cars. But my lasting impression of that visit was that it was quite dark and the vehicles were quite close together.
I knew that the outside of the building had been totally redesigned, but photographs can only do so much, so I kept my eyes open for it as I drove along Wilshire Boulevard on a recent Saturday morning.
I was quite shocked when I arrived. There was no mistaking the building as it was red with wavy aluminium lines all around it. I asked my 21-year-old grandson what he thought about it and he said he didn't care for it at all. His opinion echoed mine exactly.
We've been to lots of avant-garde art exhibits that we've both liked and, frankly, just because it's modern doesn't automatically mean it's good.
Having said that, the interior of the museum is first class, and I wondered if the designers of the outside ever talked to the designers of the inside.
We see lots of glass and aluminium buildings in California, and I think such an exterior would have served the purpose better, but then opinions on design are as varied as the designs themselves.
Having entered the building, it was good that I took my parking ticket with me because they have one of those nifty little machines that you settle up with. More importantly, we were happy to see a well-lit and very well set up museum dedicated to the world of the automobile.
The Petersen's mission statement is "to explore and present the history of the automobile and its impact on American life and culture." The museum has certainly reached its goal as the exhibits on show are remarkable and wonderfully showcased.
To begin with, on the ground floor there is an exhibit called the Peter and Merle Mullin Artistry Floor. Here, I had the order of my favorite cars rearranged a little. For years, I had always thought that the most beautiful vehicle I had ever seen was located at the Nethercutt Museum in Sylmar. It was a 1933 Duisenberg in silver and chrome, and it took my breath away when I first saw it.
However, on the ground floor of the Petersen is a 1933 Hispano-Suiza sport tourer in a deep mid-blue with white-wall tires. It is absolutely stunning.
I have to say that if I was offered the opportunity of owning either of these two cars, I would be very torn. Even a few weeks later, I am still unable to make up my mind.
But it's not just the ground floor to gawk at the automotive marvels. There are three floors to wander around and each has its prize vehicle on show.
I rather liked the three-wheel Davis Divan sitting quietly with its odd single front wheel, which I'm sure was not too stable. Its claim was that it could sit four people side by side on the front bench seat. Is this an advantage?
Between 1947-49, 13 of these strange cars were built before the owner was sued and spent some time at a penal work farm. Twelve of them exist to this day.
If your passion is hot rods, those are on display and there also are motorcycles and racing cars. There is even a place to park the kids while you explore, and there is a café as well.
As I walked back down the circular staircase to the ground floor, I had to look once more at the Hispano-Suiza and wonder what it was like to drive that car around early Los Angeles. It was of course, competing with some of the most beautiful cars ever produced, many of which are on display here at this monument to the automobile.

Criminal Law
Criminal Law Questions? Ask a Criminal Lawyer.
Thank you for using JustAnswer. I am researching your issue and will respond shortly.
I'm sorry to hear about your situation. First of all, you need to know that cities have "sovereign immunity" and prosecutors enjoy what's known as "qualified immunity". What that means is that generally speaking if you were to sue either the city or the prosecutor, they could get it dismissed in court. There are very few statutes that would help you get around this.
The only one that I can think of is 42 USC 1983, which is a Federal law.
That is a law that allows you to sue for violations of your civil rights.
Now a violation (even a false positive) is enough to bring you into court for a hearing. To be able to establish a case against the city / prosecutor you would need to show that they knew or should have known before hand that the positive was false. Now if you believe that she is doing this on purpose (I assume that you mean the prosecutor) you would need to establish that the prosecutor had rigged the device or was getting a "kickback" for this. That is, that there was some sort of behind the scenes fraud going on to deprive you of money without due process.
While I'm not saying that it's impossible, or even impossible to prove, you would still need some evidence to establish this.
Even if your feelings on this matter are correct, the feelings alone will not establish the evidence to impute liability on the city or prosecutor for civil rights violations. You would need to have clear evidence of tampering by the city / prosecutor so that it would register a positive.
Even if the device is fault, that would not be enough to impute liability on the city / prosecutor as negligence would be something that you could not successfully sue on (due to the immunity provisions discussed above).
Now if you have evidence (from whatever source) to show that there was some intentional or knowing action resulting in the defect in the device, then that could be the basis for a successful suit.
And if you get that, you should certainly take that to a civil rights attorney, or the ACLU, etc... but until then, I'm afraid to say that immunity would bar any successful suit.
I know this is probably not what you wanted to hear, but it is the law. I hope that clears things up anyway. If you have any other questions, please let me know. If not, and you have not yet, please rate my answer AND press the "submit" button, if applicable. Please note that I don't get any credit for my answer unless and until you rate it a 3, 4, 5 (good or better). Thank you, XXXXX XXXXX luck to you!
So even though she can see evidence and its clear its a false positive she can continue to bring me into court
Yes. Now it really depends on the terms of your probation, but typically a positive (even a clear false positive) is an automatic hearing. It's entirely possible that they don't even have discretion to say that a hearing is not required.
(again, depending on the terms of the probation..., the city code, etc..)
Did you have any other questions before you rate this answer?

A RUNCORN driver recruitment agency is pioneering a new accreditation scheme to raise standards in the transport and distribution industry.
Drivers Direct employs 80 drivers and 10 branch staff in Halton Road and a further 500 drivers and 58 employees at 17 centres nationwide.
The business has worked in partnership with the Freight Transport Association (FTA) to help develop The Driver Agency Accreditation Scheme.
Managing director Gethin Roberts, aged 53, said: "It is a huge honour to help develop the first ever accreditation scheme for driver recruitment.
"The accreditation has taken three years to create and sets out to recognise driver recruitment agencies that operate within the highest standards, giving welcome reassurance to transport companies and any businesses needing to engage drivers."
Drivers Direct is among 12 agencies that helped develop the accreditation scheme with the FTA and are among the first to receive the accreditation mark.
Each agency was presented with its own certificate of accreditation during a special launch ceremony at the Institution of Civil Engineers, in London, on February 6, attended by Transport Minister Robert Goodwill MP.
Senior Traffic Commissioner, Beverley Bell said: "Driver agencies provide a vital service to the commercial vehicle industry but the standards of service currently provided vary tremendously.
"I am encouraged by the new FTA initiative to set up an accreditation scheme that will not only promote but also monitor high standards of service thereby enabling operators to ensure that their operator licence compliance is not compromised in any way. "As regulators, traffic commissioners reinforce the principles of road safety and fair competition and so we always welcome new initiatives from within the industry to achieve better standards."
The accreditation scheme is voluntary and open to all agencies wishing to apply for recognition.

All it takes to fill the fake shoes of the UFC's longtime ring announcer is a sleek suit, microphone, and temporary gray dye/spray for hair. An ability to spin either 180 or 360 degrees doesn't hurt either. Additionally, another bonus to the Buffer get-up beyond being cheap is the likelihood of becoming the life of the party by busting out an impression while randomly introducing people.
To the delight of countless folks, Halloween is on tap for Thursday and, if you're like most of the MMA-loving fanbase, there's a chance you still haven't settled on an outfit to wear (or even started shopping for one). Fortunately, we have you covered, as there are plenty of costume ideas out there that aren't expensive, should be easy to put together, and offer up a spin on your favorite sport. There are still a few days to go so it's time to get cracking and work your way into contention to become champion of whatever party you plan on attending later this week!

WWE and TNA should end their rivalry
by, 01-01-2014 at 11:35 AM (3479 Views)
I am not saying that there is anything wrong with good competition; I'm saying that everything has gone too far. There used to be a time in which Bob Backlund defended the WWE title in champion vs champion matches against other promotion's champions. There used to be a time when wrestlers could switch promotions and keep the same name and gimmick. There was a,time that Ric Flair's world heavyweight championship belt could be shown on WWE tv. WWE's talent used to appear in all kinds of independent shows even those that had WCW wrestlers.
Today TNA and WWE are so petty. You had TNA refusing to let ECW wrestlers show up to one night stand. Later WWE refused to let the ECW originals use the name and we had to go without Joey Styles. The NWO had to be "the band" and the Dudley boys became "team 3d". WWE absolutely refuses to acknowledge TNA on tv but many WWE personnel slander TNA all the time. WWE refuses to recognize any title wins in TNA including the NWA title that we have seen in WWE tv. Everything from revisionist documentaries to highlight packages in WWE constantly sh*t on WWE alumni who currently work for TNA. We all remember TNA's bullsh*t lawsuit against WWE. They BOTH steal angles from one another.
I really wish that these 2 could have a more cordial relationship with one another.

Biology in Business is an organisation that aims to help commercial and academic life scientists learn from each other. It encourages idea sharing, as well as career crossovers for scientists working in these areas.
Life scientists looking for help with their careers, particularly those based in or hoping to move to the United Kingdom, may well find the Biology in Business Web site useful. Included in its Life Science Employer Directory are links to over 600 U.K. companies that employ life science graduates, searchable by company name, location, sector, and key word. Biology in Business is based in Cambridge, so it's no surprise to find a page of links dedicated to guiding a life science job search in one of the United Kingdom's most research-intensive regions.
If you're not sure what kind of job you're looking for, try the Career Choice Guide. This simple yes/no flow chart is quite useful in clarifying the decisions you must make when picking your career path, but it is fairly basic, with limited scope outside the most obvious career choices.
The site does contain a certain amount of useful advice on various career options--brief descriptions of specific careers, and how to get into them--but its main strength is certainly its vast collection of links to other sites. As well as the numerous companies listed on the site, there are links to a number of recruitment and job-searching Web sites. If you want to learn more about the job market and prospective employers, you'll find links to information about current research, clinical trials, and patents; industry news; trade, regulatory, and government bodies; and a list of publications that you can access for free to keep up-to-date with industry trends. For those starting out on their careers, there are also links to a couple of training schemes.
The Biology in Business organisation advocates that prospective trainees get to know people already working in the field in which they are interested. To this end, those lucky enough to be located in the Cambridge area should check out the local events page for up-to-date information on upcoming conferences and lectures within the biological sciences community.
The actual information on the Biology in Business Web site itself is fairly limited, but it makes for a very useful gateway into the whole of life science in the United Kingdom. To make the most of it, you might want to join the organisation's mailing list, which you can do from the home page.

Since the first Boeing Business Jet entered the PATS Aircraft completion center in September 2001, the company has rolled out five finished BBJs. The company delivered the latest, for a South American head of state, last month.
Four of the five BBJ interiors by the Georgetown, Del.-based company were head-of-state aircraft, a fact that should come as no surprise, according to Dominick Scott, v-p of quality and procurement. "Personal attention is a major part of our business model," said Scott. "And the cabin is a very personal symbol of the owner, especially if it's the symbol of a country."
PATS' business model also maintains a tight focus on green BBJ completion work and refurbishment. "We've gone from one BBJ to the next since we started," said Bill Hubbard, v-p of marketing, sales and contracts. "We're right now doing a cabin refurbishment on the BBJ that belongs to our first customer, and we have a corporate-owned BBJ coming in early next year."
PATS generally does one BBJ at a time. While there may occasionally be two jobs in progress at one time, it rarely creates a problem because the various skills required at different stages do not overlap.
Scott said business has been good this year and he predicts that will continue through 2008. He added that at this point, PATS is contracted through next year, "and we are hiring."

Feast and Reef Nab Top Honors Once Again
Feast and Reef have once again been honored at a national level, this time as two of the Best New U.S. Restaurants according to Travel + Leisure magazine. But more than two Houston restaurants were recognized: Textile and Voice also made the list of 50 eateries across the nation honored as being among the "country's top dining experiences."
Only five Texas restaurants were named to Travel + Leisure's list, making the honor of having four of those restaurants in Houston even higher. (Most of the restaurants are in New York City, but that's to be expected.) But considering that the magazine's aim was to highlight "spots that offered us warmth and a sense of human connection," it's no surprise that Houston's restaurants fit the bill to the letter.
What did the magazine have to say about our fine establishments?
Feast was first to be featured, the magazine claiming that it's the "most nourishing and idiosyncratic spots to open in town since, well, ever." We don't disagree. The magazine named "the rather more ethereal Textile" to their next spot, highlighting its contrast with Feast as "diaphanous and fabric-draped."
Over in Midtown, the magazine turned its attention to Reef, praising its "distinct piscine personality" and their coastal Southern dishes such as mussels steamed in Shiner Bock beer. Finally, lush downtown oasis Voice was selected for its "happy transformation" from the former Bank and for their "clean and focused New American flavors."
The restaurant renaissance is upon us in Houston. Now it's up to us as a city to encourage and retain the talent we have, but I think we're more than up to the task.

MPs have paid glowing tribute to former Budema West MP William Okecho describing him as a transparent and dedicated leader.
In a motion moved by government chief whip Kasule Lumumba and seconded by opposition chief whip Cecilia Ogwal for parliament to pay tribute to the late Oketcho Tuesday afternoon, the MPs described the late Okecho as a nationalistic and informed leader who always debated with facts.

"The late Okecho was a performer, one time the parliamentary score card rated him as the best performing MPs with 97%, his expertise on Budget issues saw him chair the budget committee well," said Lumumba.

Cecilia Ogwal, described the late Okecho as someone who believed in transparency and defended the budget Act.
Ogwal also described Okecho as a leader who advocated for clean leadership among the youth and leaders.

Hillary Onek, the minister for relief and disaster preparedness remembered Okecho who happens to be as old boy (OB) in school as a leader who was principled and nationalistic.
"He could not speak 'wolokoso', he was truthful and mean what he said," said Onek.
Budama South MP, Jacob Oboth Oboth remembered the late Okecho as someone who hated cheap politics and an independent leader who did not belong to any political cliques.
The MPs also described Okecho as a leader who wished others well and cared about the development of the country and his community.
"During the eight parliaments, the late Okecho represented me ably well, he immensely contributed to the education of people in the japadhole land and he was a greater investor," said Fox odio the current MP of Budama West.
Okecho passed away on Friday last week at Mulago hospital battling kidney failure related illness.
The late Okecho lost his parliamentary seat after a 2011 Constitutional Court ruling declared it illegal for Legislators to switch political party affiliations without vacating their seats
The ruling followed a petition instituted against him on grounds that he had joined eighth parliament as an independent and was later nominated to run as an NRM flag bearer to join the ninth parliament on the NRM ticket- an act that contravened the law.

Read more about the convictions and sentences of Berkeley Pharmaceutical executives here.
A lurid corruption saga came to a conclusion in late August when Steven E. Warshak, president and owner of Cincinnati-based Berkeley Premium Nutraceuticals, was sentenced to 25 years in prison. Several other employees and executives received jail time as well, including General Counsel Paul J. Kellogg and Harriet Warshak, the company founder's 75-year-old mother, who held various positions in the company.
In February, a federal jury in the Southern District of Ohio convicted Steven E. Warshak on 93 criminal counts, including conspiracy, obstruction, mail fraud, bank fraud and money laundering. Harriet Warshak was convicted on eight counts and sentenced to two years (although her sentence has been stayed due to poor health). Kellogg got a year and a day for six counts of conspiracy and money laundering.
The jury also convicted the company on 15 counts, including conspiracy, mail fraud and misbranding. TCI Media Inc., a Warshak-owned business used to mislead banks and credit card companies, was found guilty of 21 counts of money laundering.
All told, more than $500 million in fines and forfeitures were levied against Warshak's companies. Berkeley filed for bankruptcy in September--illustrating the way risk and consequences can escalate in the face of bad decision-making.
Pravin B. Rao, former assistant U.S. attorney and SEC enforcement branch chief, puts it as succinctly as one can: "Almost all the things companies can do wrong, this company did."
Scam with a Smile
Most of the misdeeds surrounded the company's flagship brand, Enzyte. The ubiquitous, campy TV ads for the product featured "Smilin' Bob," a goofy-looking guy whose broad grin was a result of Enzyte's promised "natural male enhancement."
Smilin' Bob
It's tempting to look at the Berkeley convictions as a simple matter of comeuppance for a snake oil salesman and his cohorts. But this was no small operation.
"The government could throw the kitchen sink here, and it would be legitimate," says Rao, a partner at Perkins Coie. "The interesting thing is, it's stuff that legitimate companies could run into problems with. One of the most interesting things is [GC] Paul Kellogg. For an inside counsel to get so embroiled in this is amazing. He was completely intertwined with the process."
The 91-page criminal indictment outlines how Berkeley relied on false or misleading advertising to lure clients, used abusive billing practices to keep them and then deliberately misled investigators, laundering money and hiding assets while purporting to cooperate.
At each step of the process, the venture ran afoul of a different federal agency and the scope of the fraud scheme expanded.
False Claims
Although the Smilin' Bob ads used not-so-subtle innuendo to get the point across, other advertising for Berkeley products contained blatantly false claims about the supplements' effectiveness, cited nonexistent research and used endorsements from fictitious doctors. Ads also included money-back guarantees that the company, by policy, would not honor.
"Companies are required, in their advertising and marketing materials, not to be false or misleading," explains Ron R. Urbach, who leads the advertising law group at Davis & Gilbert. "If you make a claim, you have to have actual substantiation and support for that claim."
Urbach adds that law departments often fail to properly vet ads and marketing materials and fail to understand the broad spectrum of potential claimants.
"You could have a regulatory action, federal or state," he says. "You could have a competitor action. You could have an individual consumer action or a consumer class action."
Some states have particularly low thresholds for violation--a lowest common denominator presumption geared to protect the least sophisticated customers. Other states, due to political considerations, have more aggressive attorneys general.
That Berkeley was in the area of personal health made matters worse.
"The Federal Trade Commission is very aggressive about going after any company that makes outrageous health claims, whether it be regarding diet, sexual performance or general health," cautions J. Forrest Hinton, a shareholder at Baker Donelson. "And the bigger you are, the bigger target you are."
Once Berkeley snared customers, it used its "continuity program" to keep them. Customers who requested free samples found their credit cards charged for monthly shipments. If they protested or tried to cancel, they were directed to a nonexistent customer care specialist.
Moreover, the company played games with credit card companies, resubmitting declined charges with fabricated expiration dates or splitting transactions into multiple charges to manipulate statistics that might trigger a card company investigation.
Taken individually, the company's advertising and billing practices may not have risen to the level of criminal charges. But the more the pattern of wrongdoing emerged, the more egregious and willful the company's behavior appeared.
"Once you start doing things like creating this fictitious director of customer care, it's hard to say this is just a glitch in your accounting system," Rao says.
As he reviewed the case, Judge S. Arthur Spiegel reportedly stated that a key aspect of Warshak's strategy depended on the belief that most customers would not come forward out of embarrassment. That belief proved false. The trial featured testimony from customers across the country, in addition to that of investigators from several federal agencies.
Out of Control
The actions Berkeley's management took between 2002 and 2004, before federal investigations expanded into criminal prosecution, sealed their fate.
In one particularly damning example, Kellogg directed employees to hide a truck full of supplements under suspicion of misbranding from Food and Drug Administration investigators.
"When the regulator comes knocking, that's when you can stop things from mushrooming out of control," Rao says. "I think the way they dealt with the FDA and the FTC ramped it up to the criminal side."
Regulators meet regularly with criminal authorities to discuss their current cases. As prosecutors consider the cases they might pick up, any suspicion that the company is hiding information is a red flag.
As a practical matter, it's much easier to prosecute an obstruction case than something like securities fraud, so prosecutors always have an eye out for situations where someone may have lied to investigators. Better to fess up early and pay a fine than risk an indictment that could put the company out of business. But don't attempt half measures.
"If you ma ke t he decision to cooperate with regulators, you better do it fully," Rao advises. "Anything less will be construed as obstruction and will instantly turn it into a criminal case. Here it looks like they were making a surface effort to cooperate with the FTC, but at the same time they were setting up trusts on the side to funnel money out and make it look like they had fewer assets."
The final twist of the knife was Kellogg's involvement. Once the general counsel's role in fraud is proved, the floodgates are opened.
"The crime fraud exception trumps attorney-client privilege," Rao says. "That's how a lot of the documents got in. It's a huge danger in general, once you have in-house counsel involved."

Shia LaBeouf is about to transform — into a Broadway actor.
The ex-star of the "Transformers" franchise will make his Broadway debut opposite Alec Baldwin in Lyle Kessler's "Orphans" at the Schoenfeld Theatre starting March 19. Daniel Sullivan will direct.
The play, which premiered in 1983, tells the story of two orphaned brothers living in a decrepit Philadelphia row house who decide to kidnap a wealthy man. LaBeouf plays one brother and Baldwin the target.
LaBeouf, whose films include "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" and "Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps," was most recently seen in John Hillcoat's crime drama "Lawless."
He will next be in Robert Redford's "The Company You Keep" and in "The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman" opposite Evan Rachel Wood.

A Chisel Plane can accomplish tasks impossible for normal planes. Because it lacks support in front of the blade, a Chisel Plane does not function like a typical plane but rather more like a paring chisel with very precise depth control. It makes a wonderful clean up tool, excellent at removing dry glue, flush-trimming plugs or joints, smoothing rabbets, and reaching into right-angle corners.
Our Chisel Plane is a very handy half-sized version of the original Stanley No. 97. Bronze body and cap, Cherry knob, Stainless Steel blade adjuster with hefty 3/16" blade.
Click here to view our YouTube video on Chisel Plane: Setup and Use.
In many cases, even the Small Chisel Plane will best be used with two hands, one pressing on the back half, and the other guiding the front. The extra heavy 3/16" blade should be kept very sharp, and extra care should be taken to avoid getting your fingers near the sharp edge.
The blade is A-2 Tool Steel hardened to Rockwell 60-62, cryogenically treated and double tempered. Our heat-treating technique ensures that the blade will take and hold a very fine edge for a long time. After heat treating, the blade is fully surface ground on the top, back, and cutting edge, giving a smooth, flat surface that will take a mirror finish very quickly.
Many people like the patina that Bronze gets with age and use, but if you wish to keep the finish bright, a little brass polish is in order.
Materials and workmanship are guaranteed for the life of your tool. Call for repairs or replacement parts. We are available for advice if you ever have a problem using your tool.
Bronze and brass alloys contain lead, a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects, or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.

But New Mexico residents who already have registered for the Sept. 27 race in Edgewood may not be feeling so enthused now that the Utah-based organization running the event has gone out of business. Especially if they want to get their entry fee back, which in some cases can run as high as $100.
On Monday, the Albuquerque-based Better Business Bureau issued a news release announcing that Round House Racing of Spanish Fork, Utah, had shut down, thereby canceling all future events, including two planned this week and next in Portland, Ore., and Reno, Nev.
The BBB became involved after registered participants in two other cities contacted a different bureau when they were unable to reach anyone at Round House after being notified by email that the races would not take place.
"The BBB is encouraging consumers that have paid registration fees for the 5k Foam Fest event to dispute the charge with their credit card company or bank," the Better Business Bureau Serving New Mexico and Southwest Colorado advised in its release.
And they should do that quickly, Connie Quillen, executive assistant at the local BBB, told the Journal.
That's because credit- and debit-card issuers may only consider such requests for a specified period of time.
"If it's debit or credit, check with the card issuer as to what your rights are for recourse on that," Quillen said Monday, suggesting those seeking a refund submit a copy of Round House's going-out-of-business announcement posted on its website. "Hopefully, people can get their money back."
Quillen said they also should check periodically to see if the company files for bankruptcy protection in its home state of Utah. If it does, they could file for a refund with the bankruptcy court.
On Thursday, Round House posted on its website and Facebook page that all future events had been canceled and that it was going out of business. It made no mention of refunds, other than to say Red Frog Events, another company, would offer free registration to one of its upcoming events and 25 percent off the entry fee for a second person.
"Our organization has spent years and an incredible amount of money perfecting this great event for the runners we admire so much," the company wrote. "However, due to limited resources we are sad to announce that the 5k Foam Fest is cancelling all future events and will no longer be in business as of July 17th, 2014."
The company also said it doesn't have the staff or funds to respond to emails or phone calls, but it promised to provide email updates "as information becomes available."

Report: Yankees' Masahiro Tanaka to test injured right elbow on Monday
Masahiro Tanaka, who is on the disabled list with a partially torn ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow, will play catch at Yankee Stadium on Monday, a source told ESPNNewYork.com's Wallace Matthews on Sunday.
Manager Joe Girardi said before Sunday night's game in Boston that Tanaka had seen team doctors on Friday and will throw on Monday barring a setback in the morning.
"We'll see tomorrow what everyone wants to do with him, but as we said, three weeks is the mark," Girardi said. "[He told] his doctor he feels good, so we'll see what we do. We'll get home and talk and decide what we're going to do."
Even if all goes well, the Yankees are unlikely to get Tanaka back before September, Wallace reports.

Once considered a questionable design, and one that still draws comparisons to the Nike Air Yeezy, the Air Jordan Flight 45 High has come into its own with this absolutely perfect set of four new colourways. It starts with this insane red nubuck pair (February release) with black and white accents. Another nubuck pair goes with all black (January), adding just a couple of white details so you don't disappear. We get confirmation that the white/grey/black/red joints (February) aren't just for kids, and while that's exciting, the tonal grey pair that features some beautiful gradients might be the pick of the litter (March). Sneaker News will update you on all of these and everything else in store for Jordan Brand in spring '10. via SC
