NeuroMetrix Hit By Lower Sales
Nerve testing devices maker NeuroMetrix (NURO) reported fourth-quarter fiscal 2010 net loss per share of 18 cents, marginally missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of 17 cents.
The Massachusetts-based company posted a net loss of $4.2 million in the quarter versus a profit of roughly $0.4 million (or 2 cents a share) a yearago as revenues sank on account of a revamp in Medicare reimbursement. For fiscal 2010, net loss per share of 73 cents was a penny higher than the Zacks Consensus Estimate and above the year-ago loss of 71 cents.
Revenues for the quarter plummeted nearly 51% year over year to $3.1 million as change in reimbursement for nerve conduction studies ("NCS") using electrodes (electric conductors) led to declines of 14% and 47% in the average selling price and number of electrodes sold, respectively. Sales missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $4 million. For the full year, revenues of $13.9 million (down 47% year over year) narrowly trailed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $14 million.
Consumables (electrodes, needles and other accessories) sales for the quarter tanked 56% year over year to roughly $2.5 million while medical equipment (including nerve testing devices such as ADVANCE and NC-stat) revenues edged up 2.8% to $0.6 million. The installed base of active accounts dipped 4.2% sequentially to 3,875. NeuroMetrix placed 64 new systems in the quarter, down from 85 in the previous quarter.
Adjusted (excluding inventory charges associated with restructuring) gross margin in the fourth quarter reduced to 62.1% from 70.5% a year ago. Operating expenses clipped 28% year over year to roughly $4.5 million as the company spent less on R&D and sales and marketing expenses. NeuroMetrix exited fiscal 2010 with cash and investments of roughly $17 million, down 44% year over year.
NeuroMetrix focuses on the development and marketing of devices that help physicians detect and treat diseases and peripheral nerve injuries, and offer regional anesthesia and pain control. The company's flagship products are ADVANCE and NC-stat devices for NCS. NeuroMetrix competes with Medtronic (MDT) among others.
NCS is considered as gold standard for diagnosis of diabetic peripheral neuropathy. However, higher cost and limited access have prevented its wide-spread adoption. Studies conducted using ADVANCE and NC-stat declined 12.5% sequentially in the fourth quarter. The company plans to launch a modified version of the NC-stat device dubbed "NC-stat-SL", around June-July 2011, which is designed to measure diabetic neuropathy at the point-of-care.
NeuroMetrix, in January 2011, modified its operational focus in favor of diabetes, in particular the diagnosis and monitoring of diabetic neuropathy. Moreover, as part of its new strategies, the company stated that it will maintain its ongoing sustenance for its neurodiagnostic business, which has languished in recent times due to reimbursement policies.
The company has restructured this business to provide product support to its live installed base, reduce costs and optimize cash flow. The restructuring, which involves a 27% workforce reduction and realignment of responsibilities, cost NeuroMetrix roughly $2.3 million.

It's been a while since I've completed my VCP6-DCV Study Guide page with all the VCP6-DCV objectives. The work on it has started actually after the vSphere 6 release, then the work has continued during several months. The good news for folks willing to use this resource page, with all the linked sub-chapters, is that the whole VCP6-DCV Study Guide has been released as a Free PDF which has 28 chapters (210 pages).
Thanks to Simplivity who support this effort. This study guide is available as Free Download from their website. I guess that you have previously browsed few sections on my VCP6-DCV Study page and saw that any screenshots and explanations are in each of those objectives. I cannot judge, but it seems that it's fairly popular within the community. During past few events that I was personally present (VMworld Barcelona and VeeamON) quite a few folks came to me to say hi telling me that they have found the blog, and the study guide very useful and it helped them to pass their VCP6-DCV exam! What else I could have say… That's awesome !
Thanks to Simplivity you can download this VCP6-DCV Study Guide as a Free PDF !!
Helping to learn stuff is the-the main purpose of the blog since its beginning – helping with configs, virtualization, backups/replication, DR, …. the daily IT job. At first, the idea was to bookmark procedures to (at that time) popular online bookmarking sites like delicious.com or stumbleupon.com and have my stuff somewhere there organized if I need it. But then I thought why not create my own space? That's how the WordPress blog was born…
To tell you the truth I really did not expect that the site will be that successful, serving so many web pages a year. Note that 2015 was a record year in terms of web traffic as we had almost 6 million pages view … That's 3x more than in 2014. Check more details on our Advertise page. Thanks to continuous efforts, daily updates, and passion…
The blog has started as a small bookmarking site, where I needed to bookmark new configs, new tools, news about new products… in my own space. A WordPress has started to be quite popular as a CMS even if many other content management systems has existed. I thought how cool would be to get vladan.com then? Unfortunately, this domain was taken and the guy wanted some $2000 for it which was simply out of the question….
Then after posting few dozens of a posts I realized that people actually finding those posts through Google and that they read what I write. THAT was awesome. People are reading what I'm writing. Imagine that? I never wrote anything publicly accessible on the internet. This gave me a responsibility, and I learned more about blogging, English grammar, spelling, I learned through the years A LOT. Few bloggers more experienced than I was in that time has helped me out as my written English wasn't perfect and I had a tendency to rush my posts too……
But then, I went on and kept blogging. Day after day. And if one want to do this job seriously, it's a full-time job, as a Technical Marketing person. Many successful startups and enterprises trying to hire the last successful independent blogger left or just grabbing the good ones from a competition…. That's today's reality. Very few consistent and independent bloggers exist actually.
What's the present?
As I'm an independent blogger and IT consultant. I share the available stats through the Advertise section…
I keep providing local IT services to local businesses here where I live, I'm also an IT trainer. Different topics can be programmed, not only virtualization, backups/replication or DR, but also basic IT training teaching the basics about IT administration, NTFS, AD…. One would not believe how many very "small shops" are left without a possibility to hire an IT guy, so in those small shops it's usually the accountant who is in charge of the "IT" in the company. And often those folks are not born IT engineers…
What's the future?
I shall be preparing to VCP6-CMA and VCP6-DTM (Is half way through) in the months to come. Don't expect this to be finished anytime soon….. You can join the forces if you're interested. Perhaps a future sponsor might join us as well so the effort is well rewarded!
The readership community keeps very active through comments and coming back to the blog to re-read some step by step posts which are the most popular. It gives me the force to keep writing and pushes me forward … Thanks for reading our blog !!! Stay tuned through Twitter, FB, YouTube or RSS.
Lastly I'd like to point to fellow bloggers Eric Siebert (@ericsiebert) running vLaunchpad and Top vBlog (voting for 2016 is in preparation, stay tuned !!! ), and also Andreas Lesslhumer (@lessi001) who has a very interesting database which he put in place, providing details how many blog posts has been published by bloggers and further details. Eric has fixed some rules for being accepted to the voting – 10 blog posts per year. I absolutely agree. No 'dead' blogs….
With that said, Get your Free copy of VCP6-DCV Study Guide From Simplivity !!

No special skills, no food styling secrets and no oven required to make this refreshing summer dessert from Jamie Geller's Joy of Kosher: Fast, Fresh Family Recipes.
In her book, Joy of Kosher: Fast, Fresh Family Recipes, Jamie Geller shares more than 100 recipes giving each a creative twist to "Dress It Up" — add some bling for your party table — or "Dress It Down" and lure your picky eaters to meals they'll enjoy.
And what better way to end a summer meal than with a cool refreshing dessert. The following dessert looks and tastes amazing. No special skills, no food styling secrets and no oven are needed to complete this dessert.
Sorbet Cups With Strawberry-Kiwi Salsa
4 medium oranges, such as navel, tangelo or Cara Cara, rinsed
1⁄4 cup plus 2 Tbsps. granulated sugar
1 pint sorbet, your favorite flavor
1 cup strawberries, hulled and diced
1⁄2 cup kiwi (about 2), peeled and diced
grated zest and juice of 1 lime
1⁄2 tsp. coconut extract (optional)
1 cup nondairy whipped cream *see note
Slice 1⁄2-inch off the top of each orange and reserve for garnish, if desired. Cut a thin slice off the bottom of each orange just so that the oranges can stand steady and upright.
Carefully cut the flesh and scoop out the insides of the oranges with a small sharp knife or grapefruit spoon (save the orange segments for fruit salad or smoothies).
Moisten the outside of the orange shells with a little water and roll them in 1⁄4 cup of sugar to lightly coat.
Fill the shells with the sorbet and level off the tops so you have a flat surface. Freeze until solid, 2 to 3 hours.
To make the salsa, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar with the strawberries in a small bowl and let sit until juicy, about 15 minutes. Add the kiwi and lime juice and stir well.
Gently fold the lime zest and coconut extract, if using, into the whipped "cream" in a large bowl.
Before serving, remove the oranges from the freezer, and let them soften for 5 minutes. Plate the oranges and top them with the fruit salsa, sprinkling extra salsa around the orange. Garnish with a dollop of the flavored whipped "cream."
To dress this recipe down, serve the sorbet in bowls with the strawberry kiwi salsa on top.
Serves 4.
*Note: Nondairy whipped cream is available in tubs in the freezer section of your supermarket; it is usually called "whipped topping." If you prefer to make your own, try this recipe:
Chill two 13-oz. cans of full-fat chilled coconut milk, a mixing bowl and beaters overnight in the fridge.
Turn the cans of chilled coconut milk upside down.Open the cans from the bottom and drain off the clear liquid; reserve it for other uses, such as smoothies or homemade popsicles.
Using a rubber spatula, transfer the chilled coconut "cream" left in the can to the chilled bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until thick, cream and fluffy. Beat in 1⁄4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract, then confectioners' sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, to taste. Do not overbeat.
If preparing the coconut cream in advance, remove it from the fridge 1 hour before serving because it will harden a bit when refrigerated.

The album elaborates on what Rountree started with his debut solo album Groovetree in 2005. He explains that the impetus to make Sumthin' Good was "Definitely our drive to capitalize on the success of Groovetree, my debut project. While Groovetree was VERY well received by the industry, we had a steep learning curve being an independent label and missed some opportunities, but we did learn a lot from our shortcomings. We also signed a major distribution deal with Ryko/Warner mid-way through the Groovetree campaign."
Rountree rendered the services of several talented singers and musicians for the recording of Sumthin' Good, including Detroit's rising star Valencia whom he shares, "I met Valencia through my producer Billy Meadows who discovered the 19 year-old at a University of Michigan Talent show last summer. Everyone was blown away with the maturity of both her voice and writing. She's also a very beautiful young lady. We are currently working on songs for her debut project but felt it would be great to introduce her talents to the industry through my project. I also wanted an R&B flavored vocal tune on my album to appeal to my R&B audience and we felt that this complemented the album perfectly."
Also on the recording is the cool jazz sounds of guitarist Perry Hughes who played on the track "Chillin' On" as Rountree reveals, "Dana Davis, my other producer actually wrote this track. I went to his office one day to listen to some concepts and heard this track he had written for a certain guitar player. Dana indicated that he "wasn't feelin' it" but I immediately thought the song was funky from the first 8 bars. I said, 'I have to have that on the new album.' As for Perry Hughes, we felt that the solo section had his vibe written all over it and knew he could bring out the funk...and boy did he! Took him two takes. Both were great."
Meadows and Davis are not the only long-time friends of Lin's whose input can be found on the recording. He also asked his buddy Bamm Davis to play on the track "Seldom Sunday" for the album. "I've played with Bamm for the past 10 years so we synergy energy. We actually recorded this song for his second album three years ago but it didn't make it. We had forgotten about the tune as we had discussed working together on Sumthin' Good. The day we went into the studio to brainstorm, he pulls this song up on the computer as a reference. I said, 'What's wrong with this tune? We can use it.' So we re-recorded most of the parts changed the melody and made the arrangement more radio friendly. Bamm is an outstanding musician and producer and with my ear for melody and arrangements, I think we have scratched the surface on what we can do on future projects."
Though Rountree knew his way around a recording studio after making Groovetree, he was still challenged by the recording of Sumthin' Good as he examines, "Our motivation and creativity were very strong. We had dozens of songs to choose from, and we had a better idea of what concepts worked. The challenge came in choosing the right material and staying true to our intentions for the second album. We set out to have a project with more punch and upbeat feel. Took a lot of listening and matching but we thought like a DJ at a club would. We picked songs that created a nice flow from beginning to end. We also solicited feedback from a lot more people with different ears."
He admits, "I do allow certain people to hear samples of the project. I especially like giving it to the most critical people. If you can please them or at least get no-comment from them, you are on the right track."
Though Rountree is open to considering outside input, what matters to him most is making melodies with a nice groove in them so he can move his trumpet notes to it topping the songs with a creamy caramel glaze. "We had our moments in the studio," he reflects, "where we would say, 'Man this song is going to be great live,' but the truth is when you have songs based on grooves, they're all easy to play onstage. So it was never a big concern while recording."
His inspiration for a song can come to him at any time and any place. He asserts, "My tunes come to me at all times. That's why it is imperative for me to have a voice recorder with me always."
Part of being a solo artist is being able to come up with melodic patterns, chord changes and song ideas, and then being able to tell the other musicians how to play their pieces to make the song a cohesive collective. Lin Rountree showed this quality early on, and though he may have not envisioned becoming a solo artist from the beginning, he says that it "Naturally happened. Once I started my band and realized I had the ability to connect with people on my terms that was it."
He explains that he was introduced to playing the trumpet because of his father who played an instrument, so why not him too. "My father played the coronet in school so that was my first introduction. I actually didn't like the trumpet," he intones, "It was very difficult to play, required a lot of practice, killed my lips, and everyone called me a sax player anyway after all of that," he shrugs. "Seriously, I love the sound of the trumpet the most."
But unlike riding a bicycle where once you learn how to do it, you never forget, playing an instrument requires constant practice. "You have to practice EVERYDAY to keep your lips strong," Rountree advocates. "So much of playing the trumpet depends on the strength of your lips. I play long tones, whisper tones, and lip slurs daily and that's before I work on any songs or patterns. You hear trumpet players always talking about their chops, and how if they miss a few days, their chops will be weak. In fact, before I play a big show, I try to do as much playing as I can in a performance setting. I look for local bands that I know and go sit in with them for a set or two. As for my entire body I do kickboxing, ride my bike, and jog. I also just started using the Perfect Pushup. I thinks its really working," he smiles.
This is also why many musicians find it imperative to continually work so they can keep up their motivation to practice and develop their skills further. Lin Rountree never seemed to run out of opportunities to play the trumpet whether it was with his own band, backing up someone else's or jamming with other musicians. He says, about his past musical experiences that "each and every one of them" has made him the musician and artist that he is today. "From my school bands which taught me the fundamentals to my Motown bands that taught me how to perform and be a band member. When I started my own band on the local Detroit circuit, I learned the business side of music. Learned how to manage band members, negotiate fees, set up sound equipment, promote myself, build a fan base, etc. I even learned how to play within myself at the numerous jam sessions with legends like Marcus Belgrave, James Carter, etc."
Besides learning from the great musicians of his day, he also checks out a variety of artists on the Internet. "I can't remember the last time I was physically in a record store. Anything I learn about a new artist is mostly online. I use itunes most of the time, Rhapsody and Amazon sometimes."
He professes, "I love some of the new soul artists. I'm currently listening to Ledisi, Frank McComb, and Conya Doss. I don't emulate them rather just enjoy listening."
Rountree does not determine the artists whom he listens to by where they place on music charts, but by their style of music. Although for himself, when it comes to scanning where his albums and singles are placed, he says, "I have to admit that I do. I check out the charts every Tuesday to see how my singles are doing. I also Google myself daily to see if there are any new write-ups. There is a sense of accomplishment seeing a song that you wrote and recorded is being played for millions of people."
His goals for his music are shared by a number of solo artists when he fires off that he wants his songs to go "Straight to the top of the charts. Beyond that I just want to get out on the circuit and share my music with as many people as I can around the world. I'll let the rest take care of itself."
Lin Rountree made a point of preparing Sumthin' Good for audiences to enjoy. With the input of a number of good friends like Billy Meadows, Dana Davis, Bamm Davis, Perry Hughes, and Detroit's own Valencia, Lin Rountree's second installment of smooth jazz and R&B/soul cooking is music that will take you to a cozy destination filled with jeweled landscapes and love all around you. It's temptation at it's heavenly best.

From Sir Percy to Dane Whitman:
Ebony magazine is introducing what it calls its first cover-to-cover redesign since its introduction in 1945 as part of a bid to regain momentum after missing its paid circulation guarantees to advertisers for a year and a half. Ebony missed its guaranteed rate base of 1.25 million by an average of 6.5% in the second half of 2009, 10.8% in the first half of 2010 and 20.2% in the second half of 2010, according to its statements with the Audit Bureau of Circulations.It places most of the blame on its prior circulation management, which it says it has improved by outsourcing it to circulation veterans last October. Their diagnosis found insufficient direct-mail campaigns and prices that were occasionally more aggressive than other magazines. "If you're not constantly reaching out and asking people to come back on, they fall off," said Rodrigo Sierra, senior VP-chief marketing officer at Johnson Publishing, which owns Ebony and Jet.Last August Johnson Publishing named Desiree Rogers, the former White House social secretary, to take over as CEO, just one of several personnel changes that might play a role in Ebony's effort to rebound. Ebony's latest step is the redesign from Amy DuBois Barnett, who was named editor in chief last June, and Darhil Crooks, who joined in January as creative director from Esquire, where he had been art director."This is a top-to-bottom redesign, not a small one," Ms. Barnett said. "This is everything from introducing an evolution of our 65-year-old logo to really taking apart every single page in the magazine and putting it back together with an eye to the brand pillars that we now think best reflect our target demographic."

Sheriff to push for hate crime charges in Calabasas anti-semitic graffiti case
Read more on this story here.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department will push for hate crime enhancements to felony charges of vandalism expected to be filed soon against three Calabasas High School students, an official from the Sheriff's Department said Thursday.
The three 11th graders confessed to investigators on Tuesday to defacing their school late Friday night with extensive anti-Semitic and racist graffiti. The three students, all of whom have been described as "4.0 students" have not been named because they are minors.
The three were arrested Wednesday morning and released to their parents' custody.
"We are going to file felony vandalism charges, with a hate crime enhancement," Capt. Joe Stephen of the Malibu/Lost Hills Station said. The Sheriff's Department investigation has not yet been completed, and the ultimate decision about whether to charge the students with a hate crime will be made by a Los Angeles County District Attorney.
Initial reports had said that the sheriff's department would not pursue hate crime charges, but Stephen denied that the more severe designation had ever been off the table.
"Obviously those symbols and signs are despicable and shouldn't be tolerated by anyone," Stephen said of the graffiti, which included numerous swastikas, a spray-painted portrait of Hitler and the words "Whites Only" scrawled above a water fountain. "The Sheriff's Department fully understands the magnitude and historical significance of those markings."
In addition to any criminal prosecution, the students will face disciplinary action by administrators and school district officials.

Career Track
Career accomplishment I'm most proud of: Playing a key role on the team that developed the business processes and supporting technology that powered our global expansion has been important to me. But working with an innovative technology team has meant even more.
Most important career influencers: I worked for several senior managers who inspired me. They taught me to take a very active role in my career, seek out new opportunities in areas outside of my comfort zone, and focus on where I wanted to be in the long term.
On The Job
IT budget: $1 billion
Size of IT team: More than 4,400
Top initiatives:
How I measure IT effectiveness: We use a balanced scorecard that has a strong focus on relevant customer and business metrics that address all lines of business. In addition, we look at project- and program-specific metrics.
The next big thing for my company: I'm excited about a number of emerging technologies. In the immediate future, we'll see an expansion of collaboration platforms and the advancement of predictive analytics.
One thing I'm looking to do better: We've made significant investments in improved infrastructure and will continue work this year to adapt application architectures to make fuller use of these enhancements.
Lesson learned from the recession:Recessions are an opportunity to improve your strengths and come out in a much more competitive position.
What the federal government's top technology priority should be: Security. But on a broader scale, there's an opportunity for the government to leverage the lessons learned in business on how to approach large-scale integration of computing resources and achieve significant cost reductions.
Kids and tech careers: My children are in high school, and technology will play a major role in whatever careers they decide on. Being a member of a technology community will offer them the capability for challenging and financially rewarding careers.
Leisure activities: Spending time with my family, reading, and being involved with charitable organizations
Business-related pet peeve: Not being able to build and deploy quality technology solutions fast enough
Best book read recently: Atlas Shrugged, by Ayn Rand, which is more pertinent than ever
Personal computer: The new ultrabooks look very promising

Army Chief of Staff visits Anniston Army Depot
Cuts could go deeper than expected at the Anniston Army Depot. The sweeping cuts under sequestration affected civilian workers across the military. Now, more people in Anniston could feel the sting. 360 temporary employees did not have contracts renewed when they expired on Saturday.
The Army Chief of Staff and Sergeant Major of the{}U.S. Army visited the depot to talk with employees abut budget impacts and the future of the army.
"There's still quite a bit of uncertainty out there. We're still working on priorities on how we will spend money the rest of the year in the army." U.S. Army Chief of Staff, General Raymond Odierno, says the army is trying to make the best decisions to move forward, hoping the government won't go into a full sequestration. He says a final decision must be made this year.
In the meantime, there could be more cuts. The General says civilian employees at the Anniston Army Depot could be furloughed for 14 days, which could be the immediate impact this year. "It will have an impact on the amount of equipment we're able to get through here and with that impacts the readiness of the army."
It would also impact the livelihood of depot employees. Zach Norton says he and his co-workers are scared about losing money and about the future of the depot. "I took a second job at a gas station so it wouldn't be that much in gas because I can't afford to lose 600 a month with nothing else coming in."
General Odierno says the potential to have to furlough is because of a shortage of operational money to complete oversees missions. But on a positive note, he did say as the army draws down troops in Afghanistan equipment oversees will need to be re-set, which means a continued workload at the depot. "This is a national treasure, what we have here in Anniston. It's a place that helps us to continue to ensure we have the best equipment in the world."
If there is a furlough, the general could not tell us when it will happen. He's hoping it won't come down to that. We did ask him about North Korea and he said the U.S. is working with South Korea to ensure we continue to watch the situation carefully and that there's no over reaction.

Here we are told, I. Who they were that Christ ordained to be his apostles or ambassadors; they were his disciples, Matt. 10:1. He had called them some time before to be disciples, his immediate followers and constant attendants, and he then told them that they should be made fishers of men, which promise he now performed. Note, Christ commonly confers honours and graces by degrees; the light of both, like that of the morning, shines more and more. All this while Christ had kept these twelve,
1. In a state of probation. Though he knows what is in man, though he knew from the first what was in them (John 6:7), yet he took this method to give an example to his church. Note, The ministry being a great trust, it is fit that men should be tried for a time, before they are entrusted with it. Let them first be proved, 1 Tim. 3:10. Therefore, hands must not be laid suddenly on any man, but let him first be observed as a candidate and probationer, a proposant (that is the term the French churches use), because some men's sins go before, others follow, 1 Tim. 5:22.
2. In a state of preparation. All this while he had been fitting them for this great work. Note, Those whom Christ intends for, and calls to, any work, he first prepares and qualifies, in some measure, for it. He prepared them, (1.) By taking them to be with him. Note, The best preparative for the work of the ministry, is an acquaintance and communion with Jesus Christ. They that would serve Christ, must first be with him (John 12:26). Paul had Christ revealed, not only to him, but in him, before he went to preach him among the Gentiles, Gal. 1:16. By the lively acts of faith, and the frequent exercise of prayer and meditation, that fellowship with Christ must be maintained and kept up, which is a requisite qualification for the work of the ministry. (2.) By teaching them; they were with him as scholars or pupils, and he taught them privately, besides the benefit they derived from his public preaching; he opened the scriptures to them, and opened their understandings to understand the scriptures: to them it was given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, and to them they were made plain. Note, They that design to be teachers must first be learners; they must receive, that they may give; they must be able to teach others, 2 Tim. 2:2. Gospel truths must be first committed to them, before they be commissioned to be gospel ministers. To give men authority to teach others, that have not an ability, is but a mockery to God and the church; it is sending a message by the hand of a fool, Prov. 26:6. Christ taught his disciples before he sent them forth (Matt. 5:2), and afterwards, when he enlarged their commission, he gave them more ample instructions, Acts 1:3.
II. What the commission was that he gave them.
1. He called them to him, Matt. 10:1. He had called them to come after him before; now he calls them to come to him, admits them to a greater familiarity, and will not have them to keep at such a distance as they had hitherto observed. They that humble themselves shall thus be exalted. The priests under the law were said to draw near and approach unto God, nearer than the people; the same may be said of gospel ministers; they are called to draw near to Christ, which, as it is an honour, so should strike an awe upon them, remembering that Christ will be sanctified in those that come nigh unto him. It is observable, that when the disciples were to be instructed, they came unto him of their own accord, Matt. 5:1. But now they were to be ordained, he called them. Note, It well becomes the disciples of Christ to be more forward to learn than to teach. In the sense of our own ignorance, we must seek opportunities to be taught; and in the same sense we must wait for a call, a clear call, ere we take upon us to teach others; for no man ought to take this honour to himself.
2. He gave them power, exousian, authority in his name, to command men to obedience, and for the confirmation of that authority, to command devils too into a subjection. Note, All rightful authority is derived from Jesus Christ. All power is given to him without limitation, and the subordinate powers that be are ordained of him. Some of his honour he put on his ministers, as Moses put some of his on Joshua. Note, It is an undeniable proof of the fulness of power which Christ used as Mediator, that he could impart his power to those he employed, and enable them to work the same miracles that he wrought in his name. He gave them power over unclean spirits, and over all manner of sickness. Note, The design of the gospel was to conquer the devil and to cure the world. These preachers were sent out destitute of all external advantages to recommend them; they had no wealth, nor learning, nor titles of honour, and they made a very mean figure; it was therefore requisite that they should have some extraordinary power to advance them above the scribes.
(1.) He gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out. Note, The power that is committed to the ministers of Christ, is directly levelled against the devil and his kingdom. The devil, as an unclean spirit, is working both in doctrinal errors (Rev. 16:13), and in practical debauchery (2 Pet. 2:10); and in both these, ministers have a charge against him. Christ gave them power to cast him out of the bodies of people; but that was to signify the destruction of his spiritual kingdom, and all the works of the devil; for which purpose the Son of God was manifested.
(2.) He gave them power to heal all manner of sickness. He authorized them to work miracles for the confirmation of their doctrine, to prove that it was of God; and they were to work useful miracles for the illustration of it, to prove that it is not only faithful, but well worthy of all acceptation; that the design of the gospel is to heal and save. Moses's miracles were many of them for destruction; those Mahomet pretended to, were for ostentation; but the miracles Christ wrought, and appointed his apostles to work, were all for edification, and evince him to be, not only the great Teacher and Ruler, but the great Redeemer, of the world. Observe what an emphasis is laid upon the extent of their power to all manner of sickness, and all manner of disease, without the exception even of those that are reckoned incurable, and the reproach of physicians. Note, In the grace of the gospel there is a salve for every sore, a remedy for every malady. There is no spiritual disease so malignant, so inveterate, but there is a sufficiency of power in Christ, for the cure of it. Let none therefore say there is no hope, or that the breach is wide as the sea, that cannot be healed.
III. The number and names of those that were commissioned; they are made apostles, that is, messengers. An angel, and an apostle, both signify the same thing—one sent on an errand, an ambassador. All faithful ministers are sent of Christ, but they that were first, and immediately, sent by him, are eminently called apostles, the prime ministers of state in his kingdom. Yet this was but the infancy of their office; it was when Christ ascended on high that he gave some apostles, Eph. 4:11. Christ himself is called an apostle (Heb. 3:1), for he was sent by the Father, and so sent them, John 20:21. The prophets were called God's messengers.
1. Their number was twelve, referring to the number of the tribes of Israel, and the sons of Jacob that were the patriarchs of those tribes. The gospel church must be the Israel of God; the Jews must be first invited into it; the apostles must be spiritual fathers, to beget a seed to Christ. Israel after the flesh is to be rejected for their infidelity; these twelve, therefore, are appointed to be the fathers of another Israel. These twelve, by their doctrine, were to judge the twelve tribes of Israel, Luke 22:30. These were the twelve stars that made up the church's crown (Rev. 12:1): the twelve foundations of the new Jerusalem (Rev. 21:12, 14), typified by the twelve precious stones in Aaron's breast-plate, the twelve loaves on the table of show-bread, the twelve wells of water at Elim. This was that famous jury (and to make it a grand jury, Paul was added to it) that was impanelled to enquire between the King of kings, and the body of mankind; and, in this chapter, they have their charge given them, by him to whom all judgment was committed.
2. Their names are here left upon record, and it is their honour; yet in this they had more reason to rejoice, that their names were written in heaven (Luke 10:20), while the high and mighty names of the great ones of the earth are buried in the dust. Observe,
(1.) There are some of these twelve apostles, of whom we know no more, from the scripture, than their names; as Bartholomew, and Simon the Canaanite; and yet they were faithful servants to Christ and his church. Note, all the good ministers of Christ are not alike famous, nor their actions alike celebrated.
(2.) They are names by couples; for at first they were sent forth two and two, because two are better than one; they would be serviceable to each other, and the more serviceable jointly to Christ and souls; what one forgot the other would remember, and out of the mouth of two witnesses every word would be established. Three couple of them were brethren; Peter and Andrew, James and John, and the other James and Lebbeus. Note, Friendship and fellowship ought to be kept up among relations, and to be made serviceable to religion. It is an excellent thing, when brethren by nature are brethren by grace, and those two bonds strengthen each other.
(3.) Peter is named first, because he was first called; or because he was the most forward among them, and upon all occasions made himself the mouth of the rest, and because he was to be the apostle of the circumcision; but that gave him no power over the rest of the apostles, nor is there the least mark of any supremacy that was given to him, or ever claimed by him, in this sacred college.
(4.) Matthew, the penman of this gospel, is here joined with Thomas (Matt. 10:3), but in two things there is a variation from the accounts of Mark and Luke, Mark 3:18; Luke 6:15. There, Matthew is put first; in that order it appears he was ordained before Thomas; but here, in his own catalogue, Thomas is put first. Note, It well becomes the disciples of Christ in honour to prefer one another. There, he is only called Matthew, here Matthew the publican, the toll-gatherer or collector of the customs, who was called from that infamous employment to be an apostle. Note, It is good for those who are advanced to honour with Christ, to look unto the rock whence they were hewn; often to remember what they were before Christ called them, that thereby they may be kept humble, and divine grace may be the more glorified. Matthew the apostle was Matthew the publican.
(5.) Simon is called the Canaanite, or rather the Canite, from Cana of Galilee, where probably he was born; or Simon the Zealot, which some make to be the signification of Kananites.
(6.) Judas Iscariot is always named last, and with that black brand upon his name, who also betrayed him; which intimates that from the first, Christ knew what a wretch he was, that he had a devil, and would prove a traitor; yet Christ took him among the apostles, that it might not be a surprise and discouragement to his church, if, at any time, the vilest scandals should break out in the best societies. Such spots there have been in our feasts of charity; tares among the wheat, wolves among the sheep; but there is a day of discovery and separation coming, where hypocrites shall be unmasked and discarded. Neither the apostleship, nor the rest of the apostles, were ever the worse for Judas's being one of the twelve, while his wickedness was concealed and did not break out.

text: Hey, This summer I have a lot of free time, so I thought about volunteering for a local animal shelter. ( I really love spending time with dogs ) The problem is that almost all of the animal shelters and rescues require the volunteer to be 18 years or older. The thing is, i'm only 13 years old. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions in where I could do something over the summer that would allow me to work with dogs even though i'm only 13. Any suggestions would be greatly apperciated. Thanks in Advance, Christian C.

Now let's see how well it helps me sleep!

The 7th Annual Stand Up for Heroes fundraising event will take place on November 6, 2013 at Madison Square Garden in New York, and a partial list of entertainers has just been unveiled. Set to take the stage are Jerry Seinfeld, Bruce Springsteen, Jon Stewart, and Roger Waters, with funds raised going to assist injured service members, veterans and their families.
Sponsored by the Bob Woodruff Foundation (BWF) and New York Comedy Festival (NYCF), Stand Up for Heroes is an evening of comedy and music which "honors the sacrifice of returning service members, veterans and their families by offering support in the effort to heal the physical and psychological wounds of war." To date, the Stand Up for Heroes event has raised $16+ million to help out wounded warriors.
"A million service members are on their way home. They seek what we all do: a sense of purpose, a sustainable source of income, and a successful future for their families. We must work together to ensure the next chapter of their lives is worthy of their sacrifice. We are so thankful to the talent who continuously come back to support this important cause," stated Anne Marie Dougherty, executive director of the Bob Woodruff Foundation. "Our performers want to simply give back to the men and women who served our country and have come home injured. It is truly an inspiration to see everyone come together for an important night to honor and remember our heroes."
"We're thrilled to be partnering with the Bob Woodruff Foundation for the seventh consecutive year for Stand Up for Heroes," added Caroline Hirsch, founder of the New York Comedy Festival and Carolines on Broadway. "It's a testament to the tireless work of everyone involved with Stand Up for Heroes and to the support of people like Jerry Seinfeld, Bruce Springsteen, Jon Stewart, Roger Waters and all of the great performers who have lent their considerable talents to this worthwhile event over the years," Hirsch adds.

Canton, Mass. -- For the eighth consecutive year, Dunkin' Donuts has been ranked number one in customer loyalty in the coffee category by the Brand Keys Customer Loyalty Engagement Index. Dunkin' Donuts was also ranked number one in customer loyalty in the packaged coffee category for the second consecutive year.
In both categories, Dunkin' Donuts earned one of the highest scores for meeting customer expectations across all 64 categories and 555 brands ranked in the Index. Brand Keys' Customer Loyalty Engagement Index recognizes the brands that receive the highest loyalty and engagement assessments and surpass competitors for "delighting" customers. In the coffee restaurant and packaged coffee categories, consumer preferences were based on consistently meeting customer expectations for taste, quality, service and brand value.
"Being recognized by Brand Keys for coffee customer loyalty eight straight years is an accomplishment that speaks directly to the hard work and dedication of our franchisees and crew members, who provide our guests with great service and great value all day, every day," said John Costello, Dunkin' Brands president, global marketing and innovation. "From keeping people running with a wide variety of food and beverages served fast and fresh, to introducing exciting technologies like our Dunkin' Mobile App and new DD Perks Rewards program, our brand is committed to delivering a superior customer experience."

Time Warner Cable reaches for the cloud with SaaS for businesses
Time Warner Cable Business Class has launched a cloud-based software-as-a-service (SaaS) offering for small- and medium-size businesses.
The service, which is called Cloud Hosted Exchange, connects businesses with hosted communication and collaboration tools, without the cost of owning and managing the equipment. The new cloud-based offering was unveiled at the New York Business Expo and Conference earlier this week in New York City.
"With Time Warner Cable Business Class Cloud Services, all businesses have affordable and reliable access to communications technology that was typically only available to larger enterprises," said Ken Fitzpatrick, president of Time Warner Cable Business Class' East Region. "Our turnkey, fully managed, hosted solutions enhance communication and collaboration without the need to invest in additional hardware or manpower resources."
Some of the features include Hosted Microsoft Exchange 2010, SharePoint 2010 and Outlook.
As a result of these services being delivered in the cloud, other Time Warner Cable Business Class Cloud Services features include:
- Anywhere access to email, calendars, contact lists and documents on multiple devices, such as PCs, mobile phones and tablets
- Lower, predictable costs and no capital outlay
- Fully managed solution, with live access to technical experts 24/7/365
- Flexible, scalable options to adapt to changing business needs
- Anti-spam and anti-virus technology
- Security and reliability of enterprise-grade data centers, providing high availability with robust business continuity
- Comprehensive, easy-to-use online service management.
"The addition of the Cloud Hosted Exchange from Time Warner Cable Business Class has greatly improved our operational efficiencies, which has directly translated into better client communications and service," said Timothy George, president and CEO of the Eagle Insurance Agency in Syracuse, N.Y. "Among its many benefits is that we can now respond and interact more efficiently with email and shared calendars from any device while out of the office. We also control our own environment in real time to scale or modify existing mailboxes as required, and support is 24/7. Such timely resolution allows us to focus more on our core business responsibilities."
Time Warner Cable Business Class Cloud Services are part of a broad range of Internet, voice, television and network services offered by Time Warner Cable Business Class.

Development Towards Sustainability: How to judge past and proposed policies?
The scientific data about the state of our planet, presented at the 2012 (Rio+20) summit, documented that today's human family lives even less sustainably than it did in 1992. The data indicate furthermore that the environmental impacts from our current economic activities are so large, that we are approaching situations where potentially controllable regional problems can easily lead to uncontrollable global disasters. Assuming that (1) the majority of the human family, once adequately informed, wants to achieve a "sustainable way of life" and (2) that the "development towards sustainability" roadmap will be based on scientific principles, one must begin with unambiguous and quantifiable definitions of these goals. As will be demonstrated, the well known scientific method to define abstract and complex issues by their negation, satisfies these requirements. Following this new approach, it also becomes possible to decide if proposed and actual policies changes will make our way of life less unsustainable, and thus move us potentially into the direction of sustainability. Furthermore, if potentially dangerous tipping points are to be avoided, the transition roadmap must include some minimal speed requirements. Combining the negation method and the time evolution of that remaining natural capital in different domains, the transition speed for a "development towards sustainability" can be quantified at local, regional and global scales. The presented ideas allow us to measure the rate of natural capital depletion and the rate of restoration that will be required if humanity is to avoid reaching a sustainable future by a collapse transition.

Experienced Highland Park takes advantage of Centennial mistakes in 49-7 win
CARROLLTON - Highland Park played its role of proven playoff veteran by jumping on the early mistakes of relative postseason novice Frisco Centennial in a 49-7 Class 4A Division II Region II bi-district playoff win at Standridge Stadium.
Ranked No. 1 throughout the regular season, Highland Park (11-0) scored on three of its first four possessions and tossed in a 12-yard interception return for a touchdown by junior defensive end Thomas Perry for a 28-7 halftime lead. Highland Park ended its fourth possession at Centennial's 1 as time expired in the first half.
Highland Park will face Hillcrest (8-2) in the area round at next Friday at Highlander Stadium.
In its 16th-straight playoff appearance, Highland Park used its quarterback tandem of senior Jake Howeth and junior Brady Burgin to near dual-threat perfection to overwhelm Centennial (6-5), ranked No. 18 and making just its second playoff appearance in its seventh varsity season.
Howeth notched his 24th and 25th rushing touchdowns of the season on short-yardage runs and finished with 146 yards on 19 carries. Burgin was 12-for-12 passing for 171 yards.
Highland Park receivers made several acrobatic catches as senior Ben McElroy tip-toed in a one-handed touchdown reception for 18 yards from Howeth for Highland Park's first score. And junior Dalton Stogner caught a 65 yard touchdown pass by streaking past the Centennial secondary down the right sideline.
After Perry returned his interception to give Highland Park a 21-7 lead in the first quarter, senior linebacker Reid Oden had the final score on a 25-yard interception return in the fourth quarter. Oden also recovered a fumble and made another interception.
"We kept them out of the end zone, which is not easy," Highland Park Randy Allen said. "Our defense scored and set up scores. I think we're getting better. It will be great to have a playoff game at home for our community. I think we'll have a great crowd."
HP trailed, 7-0, after Centennial scored on its first drive on a 20-yard touchdown run by senior running back Jamel Bullock. Centennial, which also lost in the first round of its first playoff appearance in '08, quickly lost momentum.


text: So I have a perfectly good, working, Compur Electronic #1 shutter with a 90mm Super Angulon on it, perfect timings from 1/500 to 32 seconds (which was great using it recently with Kodalith and Harman Direct Positive rated ei1.5-3) Or at least, I did have, until this morning I was changing lensboards, the double-screwdriver tool slipped out of my hands and went straight through both the shutter and aperture blades. I've spent the morning on it, the shutter is back working (well, except for the big hole in one of the blades), but one of the aperture blades is stuck inside the shutter (a shard of blade is probably sticking up getting wedged somewhere). Worst part is, I can't even undo the screws on the back to get into it (I've tried putting zippo fluid on them to loosen, no good. Haven't got any WD40 but I'll buy some today and try it later). Even if I do manage to get the thing open, I'll need some new blades from a donor shutter or something (it's got 10 blades so I'd need an identical type donor). Anyway, I've all but ruled out sending it to SK Grimes, by the time I include postage and repair it'll be cheaper getting a whole new one off the 'bay. Before I consign it to the "I'll fix it one day when I get time and spares" pile, does anyone know if there is anyone around Aus that may be able to repair it and/or provide parts?

text: Hi, I would like to check if the phrase should be "with effect from" or "with effective from". e.g. She will station in the Mainland office with effect / effective from 7 April 2011. I think it should be "with effect from" but the latter appears quite often. Do they have different meanings & usage or it is just a commond mistake?

DirectionsShow MapHide Map
At just under a kilometer from the train and bus stations, the road to the Belgrade Eye should be easy walking in all but the harshest weather. Just follow our map. The entrance to the hostel is from 6b, Krunska street (in Cyrillic, KPYHCKA) - from Kneza Milosa, walk into the first car passage to the right and the house is at the bottom on the left.
From the train station:
Go out the main exit, cross the street and head straight up through Nemanjina (the really big street with trams running up the middle). Take the second left into Kneza Milosa (also a very wide street with trolleys and buses going through; you will see two bombed buildings on the corner ?your first Belgrade sightseeing), and then head straight up for 5-7 minutes. The third street to the right is Krunska (KPYHCKA), where the Belgrade Eye is. When you get into it, stay on the right side of the street and walk past numbers 6 and 6A, turning right into the first car passage (it seems to be leading to a parking lot). At the end of the passage (about 10 meters) and on your left is the Belgrade Eye.
From the bus station, the road will be the same but you will first need to follow our map to find the train station (about 2 minutes): walk through the little park right where you got off, and follow the main street one block until you see the train station (big yellow building) on your right. From there, follow the directions above.
From the airport, either take a taxi straight to Krunska (about 1000 dinars, cc. 11.5 euro) or the airport bus to the train station (about 2 euro) and then follow the directions above.
The whole journey is a very short one, but make sure you've printed these directions out and have our little map handy too. If in doubt at any point, give us a call or send us an SMS and we'll run to your rescue.
Located Near
The Belgrade Eye is a five-minute walk from the Republic Square and Knez Mihailova street, the city's main pedestrian area. Right out our doors is the Pioneer Park, and across it the Federal Parliament - that infamous building stormed by anti-Milosevic demonstrators in October 2000. The ancient Kalemegdan fort and park are 10 minutes on foot, and so is Skadarlija, the picturesque bohemian quarter. One of the most interesting museums in Belgrade, the Tesla Museum, is in our street, about 5 minutes in the opposite direction.
If you're looking for a place from which to party, you certainly won't be disappointed -there are plenty of bars within a block from the hostel, and the city's finest clubs are no more than 10 minutes away.
As for the practicalities to make your life easier: the nearest supermarket is practically right out the door, a bank and ATM are under a minute away, there are a couple of non-stop stores around, and several good restaurants as well as fast food venues are nearby.

For the third year in a row, business owners polled by Thumbtack.com flunked San Diego for its friendliness to small businesses.
The third annual survey, conducted by professional listing service Thumbtack and the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation and released Monday, showed that owners of small firms rated the San Diego area the worst, or close to it, in nine out of 11 categories.
More than 12,000 entrepreneurs from 82 metro regions participated in the survey, 212 of them from San Diego. Those business owners ranked San Diego at the bottom with six other cities including Buffalo, N.Y. and Sacramento. California tied with Illinois and Rhode Island for unfriendliest state. The state received an F for its environmental regulations.
San Diego, which received an F for its overall friendliness to small businesses, received D's in most areas, from environmental and labor policies to tax regulations. It improved to B-'s in two areas: Networking opportunities and ease of hiring.
Entrepreneurs gave San Diego an F for the ease of starting a business — a grade attributable to state policies as well as local ones.
The overall rating appears to contradict a Forbes study earlier this year that named San Diego the best city for launching a new business. Instead of looking at local policies, that study examined things like how many enterprises were in high-growth industries and what percentage had websites or Facebook pages.
"It's really strange to me how the results from these two surveys are so diametrically opposed," said Ruben Garcia, San Diego District Director for the U.S. Small Business Administration. And while the Thumbtack survey helps identify areas for improvement, he said, he's not sure it's an accurate reflection of the atmosphere here.
"I think it does represent a portion of what's being felt," he said. "But it's only showing the emotion and feeling of the small-business owner. If you look at the numbers, San Diego is doing much better than this makes it seem."
San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce Chairman Jerry Sanders said the City Council is largely responsible for San Diego's poor ratings in the Thumbtack survey.
"Six folks on the City Council have continued to put linkage fees on businesses, hampered small businesses in Barrio Logan and raised the minimum wage above the state level," he said. "It's kind of destroying the fabric of what we're trying to accomplish with hiring new employees."
Many business owners also struggle with a cumbersome permitting process at the city, he added.
"I think that when you enter the giant bureaucracy down at the city, it's easier to say 'no' than to say 'yes,' and a lot of people don't want to have to jump through more hoops."
North San Diego Business Chamber CEO Debra Rosen said her organization spends significant resources and time helping business owners navigate local bureaucracy.
All cities in California, except Oakland, rated poorly: Oakland (B-), San Francisco (C-), Anaheim (D+), San Jose (D+), Santa Rosa (D), Riverside (D), Los Angeles (D), Oxnard (F), San Diego (F), and Sacramento (F), which was ranked the least friendly city in the country.
Top-rated cities included Colorado Springs, Boise, Houston, Austin and Louisville.

Contrary to a popular belief, I don't think we need more engineers and less business people in our society. At least the story of Zemanta speaks to the contrary. If only two years ago large majority of Zemanta employees were engineers, we now represent less than a third of a work force. Even more, we have no immediate plans to hire engineers while we have plans to hire more sales, marketing and product development people, thus further reducing the share of engineers in our company. At Zemanta we have learned the hard way that it's not sufficient to build the product and than just wait for that proverbial hockey-stick growth. You actually need people that understand users and know how to get them use your product. In traditional organizations, the responsibility for growing number of users lies with marketing. But in startups the role of marketing is so intertwined with all other activities that recently a new concept of a growth hacker came about whose role is to work across all departments in order to use all the possibilities to achieve growth.
At Zemanta we don't have a proper growth hacker just yet, but I hope, we'll get one soon.
