The nine-time champion dominated Friday's ARCA International Motorsports Hall of Fame 250 before rain settled in at Talladega Superspeedway, and he was in front when officials flagged the race on lap 73 of 94.
Kimmel relished in his 77th ARCA victory and first this season, high-fiving crew after speaking with a track reporter.
He's making a career comeback of sorts, having finished second in points in 2012 and leading this year. This after he had gone without a victory in the 2009, 2010 and 2011.
"After you hear that enough and you start thinking about it yourself, it starts to worry you," Kimmel said.
He left Kimmel Racing after the 2011 season and joined ThorSport Racing.
"Since we joined forces with … ThorSport, it's really made a big difference," he said. "Like I said when they interviewed me in the car, the older you get, the better the race car you've got to have, and we've got the best race car in the garage area.
"I really feel that way, and it's showing up. It makes up for the old guy."
Kimmel, who turned 51 Tuesday, won the ARCA series in 1998 and again from 2000-07. He finished second in 2008 despite lacking a title sponsor for the entire season.
Four races into the 2013 season, he expanded his points lead from 30 to 40 over Mason Mingus, Friday's second-place finisher. Kimmel also stands three victories shy of breaking Iggy Katona's ARCA career record of 79.
Which would mean most to him, a 10th title or the career victories record?
"The most wins, without a doubt," Kimmel said. "I've always been a points racer and a championship racer. That's the thing I think I'm good at, but … three more wins puts you at the top of that category.
"That would be pretty big for me."
Though Kimmel was the story emerging from Friday's race, Milka Duno was the headliner coming in. She qualified second but wound up on the pole after Venturini Motorsports teammate John Wes Townley's car failed inspection.
Duno became the fourth female driver to hold pole position in ARCA's 61 years of existence and first since Patty Moise in 1988 to hold the ARCA pole at Talladega.
But Duno's day was a day of crashes.
She moved up on the track to avoid a lapped car but into Townley on lap 29. The incident knocked Townley out of the races, but Duno continued on.
On lap 35, right after ARCA officials dropped the green flag for restart, she was at the point of a 12-car pileup that ended her day. She moved up on the track as Thomas Praytor moved down, and contact sent her down on the apron.
Venturini teammate Justin Boston's car hit Duno's on the apron, knocking her out of the race.
It was another disappointing ending to a promising restrictor-plate race for Duno. She qualified second at Daytona in February but finished 28 because of transmission troubles.
Not long after the big wreck that claimed Duno's car and others, Kimmel reasserted control. He had led laps 23-29 then retook the lead for good on lap 44.
"The car just ran great," Kimmel said. "We were able to draft up the front and get some help. John Wes Townley, who had the fastest car on the race track, was behind me there early and kept pushing, and got to the front.
"Once we got there, it seemed like our car ran really well, and we were able to hold them off."
As Kimmel asserted control, other teams were left to race against him and the looming rain.
No one was more disappointed in the early finish than Mingus, who was strong in his Talladega debut.
"If it would have went green, and we could have found a partner to draft with, I think we had something for him (Kimmel)," said Mingus, who led laps 8-18 and was challenging for the lead most of the day. "I we had a really fast car. We just needed a drafting partner."
Third-place finisher Caleb Armstrong had planned to draft with either Mingus or fourth-place finisher Mark Thompson.
"Unfortunately, the rain started coming," Armstrong said. "I think we could have had something for the guys, if we had a good car to go with us and draft to the front."
Sixth-place finisher Josh Williams took the biggest gamble on the rain, opting not to pit. By ARCA rules, he would have had to pit by lap 84, but the race never got that far.
Williams said he had about three gallons of fuel left when the race ended. What if the race hadn't ended early?
"It would have been close," Williams said, "but I don't think we would have made it."

A trio of alleged shoplifters tried to make a getaway but were nabbed by a nearby police officer.
According to the Wauwatosa police report:
Two Milwaukee girls, ages 15 and 17, and an 18-year-old Milwaukee woman were arrested after trying to take multiple items from Kmart, 3201 N. Mayfair Road, at 5:43 p.m. Nov. 11.
The group allegedly walked through the store, taking a curling iron and multiple pairs of underwear, stuffing many items into their bras.
They were watched as they took the items and when they tried to leave the store, they heard an employee say, "Call security."
At that, they started running. Security chased them into the parking lot, where one of the females threw a bag containing the stolen goods into a waiting Mercedes. The car took off, with the trio in it.
The group was caught at a nearby BP gas station. The Mercedes was pulled over by an officer not far from the scene of the crime.
When officers approached the Mercedes, the driver seemed nervous. The driver admitted to being an accomplice while being questioned by the officer.
The 18-year-old gave officers the wrong information about herself when she was caught. She was arrested for obstructing an investigation, and the others were arrested for retail theft. The Mercedes driver, a 16-year-old Milwaukee girl, was given a citation for driving without a license.

- My Favorite Rose Oil Review by Natalie
- I absolutely love this Rose oil from Morocco and it would have to be my favorite rose oil that I have tried. I think the product description of Warm, sweet with soft spicy undertones. Excellent tenacity describes it well. I love it in perfumes and body oils and it goes magically with cardamom co2. It's a winner for me! (Posted on 2/23/13)

I Love KHAKI and Light Gray
I want this Rx Relief clog in Khaki! Indeed, I see numerous styles that I would love to buy, but the colors are not neutral enough to go with my fav clothes. I love Crocs, but the bright colors are too much for me. Frankly, I want people looking at my jewelry, accessories, sweaters, shawls, and other favorite garments -- and not just at my brightly colored feet! Please, please, PLEASE carry more of your nice styles with the choice of low-key NEUTRAL colors like light GRAY and KHAKI and STONE. I have a hunch this will gain customers for you.
Don't bother
After trying these on the straps were different sizes and the footbed seemed very stiff and hard. I then tried the 2nd pair the straps were fine but the footbed was still stiff and hard. Am returning both pairs. After trying on the duet sport clog and the duet plus, there is nothing that compares to them, they are absolutely perfect, very cushiony. Would not recommend this particular shoe, but would recommend the duet clogs.

These are Great Work Shoes
I'm on my feet 6-8 hrs a day and i need something...these have really helped the strain of standing! Other colors would ALWAYS be welcome! i only wish they would hold up a little longer, they tend to break down on me after a couple of months, they never wear out just the support seems to go and my feet let me know it!

To look at my grades in school you'd never make me out to be a history fan. In school I never really understood what importance those "old time stories" had to do with the amazing places my life was going to go until it got there.
Somewhere along the way I got curious. Seeing a billboard on the side of the road announcing that Fred's Widget Store had been in business "since 1920" got me wondering. At first I thought about the invention of the widget, which I honestly thought was a more modern creation, then I started thinking that maybe there wasn't a half bad living to be had in the widget business. Beats worrying about cleaning people's mattress all day like I do today. My curiosity about the world around me pushed me into museums to discover and learn local and regional history. It didn't take long for me to realize that without the 'olden days' we couldn't get to where we are now.
In fact, what I'm typing here this moment could some day become a valuable historic document. Okay, maybe not this particular one, but I'm sure I've written something that'll stand the test of time long after the internet fad fades away. What I honestly find so fascinating about history is how much change has taken place in just a hundred years. If you compared this past century to the one prior to it, you'll see what I mean. Those changes are happening more rapidly now with changes in the last decade being significant when compared to the decade before.
Lucky for us those changes and advancements are usually improvements. The death of disco comes to mind. The reality is that change keeps happening and sometimes we need to stop and see how far we've come to truly understand it.

After helping start a football program from scratch in high school, Chris Dorrill is eager for the opportunity to do it again in college.
Dorrill, who was on First Baptist's inaugural team, recently committed to play running back at Berry College. Though Berry, a Division III school in Rome, Ga., is 111 years old, the Vikings are adding football for the first time next season.
"Getting to start a football team in college, it's pretty cool," Dorrill said. "I know I'll get a lot of playing time."
Dorrill is the second Lions football player to commit to play college football. In February, quarterback Corey Todd agreed to be a preferred walk-on at Florida Atlantic.
As a freshman in 2009, Dorrill was part of First Baptist's first season. He and a handful of other four-year seniors helped the Lions evolve quickly, capped by a 12-1 season this past fall and a trip to the Class 2A semifinals.
Dorrill's stock rose when he rushed for 1,545 yards and 22 touchdowns as a senior. The 5-foot-10, 175-pound back hopes to find similar success at Berry.
"This year I built a lot of confidence," Dorrill said. "I had a lot of yards, a lot of TDs. I want to go in my freshman year with the goal to do it again."
Dorrill visited Furman, Samford and Stetson, but ultimately fell in love with Berry's campus. Located 70 miles northwest of downtown Atlanta, Berry has just 2,200 students but claims to have the largest contiguous college campus in the world at 26,000 acres.
Since he was hoping to attend college in the South, Dorrill also likes Berry's location. He enjoys the small-town feel and the proximity to Atlanta, where he has family.

Its no surprise that online dating profiles with photos get more action that those without. Really, what guy is going to ask you out based on your taste in movies or your description of an ideal date? But not everyone is as photogenic as the stars on the cover of Cosmo. So we asked Davis Factor, celebrity fashion photographer (hes shot Angelina Jolie and Cameron Diaz) and co-founder and owner of Smashbox Cosmetics, to share his secrets for taking a hot shot.
Turn to the right.
According to new research from Wake Forest University, the left side of your face is the sexiest. Why? Researchers found that our left cheeks tend to show more emotion which people think looks more attractive. Turning your face slightly to the right shows more of your left cheek in pics.
Pay attention to the lighting.
When light hits you from above, it creates shadows on your face, particularly under the eyes. So whether youre inside or outdoors, try to stand behind the sun or away from overhead lights. And tilt your chin up slightly to minimize any casts.
Stand tall (and look thin).
You can totally trick the camera into making you appear taller and leaner (what belly pooch?). Heres how: Stand up straight and turn slightly to the side so one shoulder is closer to the camera. Once youve hit this position, look toward the lens.
Ditch the double chin.
Beware of short cameramen. Seriously, if the lens is below your eye level, then youll gain an extra chin not hot. The lens should be at your eye level or above. Finally, project your chin out an inch or so more than you normally would.

WGME-13 news anchor Jeff Peterson used to be a meat eater's meat eater. He ate beef, chicken or pork at every meal. He turned up his nose at tofu. He mocked vegans.
The Peterson family sits down for a dinner of creamy vegan "chicken" casserole with chopped-pumpkin-seed tossed salad recently at their Portland home. Clockwise from lower left, Bryant Peterson, 13, Madison Legassey 13, Brady Peterson, 4, Gabriela Peterson, 2, Jeff Peterson, Laura Peterson and Carly Peterson, 12.

TO SEE VEGAN RECIPES by Jeff and Laura Peterson, like Jeff on Facebook at tinyurl.com/ay4fyqk. Peterson posts recipes on Mondays.
JEFF PETERSON and Pastor Brian Undlin do a comedy show to raise money for needy families during the Christmas holidays. Jeff's performance will include jokes about his work on TV and his vegan diet.
WHEN: 5:30 and 7 p.m. Dec. 1; 8:45 and 10:30 a.m. Dec. 2
WHERE: Life Church, 8 Elkins Road, Gorham
HOW MUCH: Free/donation
Then Peterson became a vegan himself.
The change to an all plant-based diet literally happened overnight. He and his wife, Laura, watched the 2011 documentary "Forks Over Knives" in February of this year and it opened their eyes to the health consequences of the standard American diet and the healing powers of vegan food.
"I remember looking at my wife and I thought that would make a good story for News 13," Peterson recalled.
His idea was to adopt a vegan diet for 60 days and have the cameras follow any resulting changes. But Laura, who works in human resources for a local company, told him his real motivation for making such a big change shouldn't be his job but his own health and family, which includes five children ages 2 to 13. Jeff agreed, but he knew a good TV idea when he saw one, so he remained committed to documenting his dietary changes for his viewers.
Prior to watching the film, both Jeff and Laura were taking steps to improve their health, so Laura readily agreed to join him in the challenge.
The next day they cleaned out their cupboards of foods that contained meat, dairy or eggs and began centering their meals around plants. They also had their cholesterol levels checked and weighed themselves. Then they began shopping and cooking in a whole new way.
They didn't make elaborate plans. They didn't spend weeks gathering recipes. Instead they just went for it.
"I think it's easier to do it like a Band-Aid -- veeeerip!" Laura said.
"Reading labels has become the standard now when we go to the store," Laura said. She added that the dairy derivatives whey and casein tend to lurk in many foods, "especially pre-processed and packaged foods. They have veggie shredded cheese that has casein in it."
Jeff too is surprised by how many items in the grocery store contain hidden animal products.
"I go in to buy bread and I go down the entire bread aisle," Jeff said. "Only one kind of hamburger buns don't have milk in it."
Recalling his prior life as a meat eater, Jeff said: "I would make fun of people who would read labels. Now I'm one of those people."
Since she does most of the cooking, Laura took several vegan cooking classes at Whole Foods Market and invested in a number of vegan cookbooks. Her favorite cookbooks include "Life in Balance" by Meg Wolff, "Blissful Bites" by Christy Morgan and "The Lean" by Kathy Freston.
Because Jeff and Laura have a blended family, finding meals the children -- particularly the older children -- enjoy has been one of the biggest hurdles.
Laura said while their 2-year-old will eat anything, their 13-year-old daughter is much more picky. The solution they've found is veganizing familiar dishes, such as shepherd's pie, lasagna or tacos.
In contrast, their 13-year-old son is a budding chef and has embraced vegan cooking as an interesting challenge.
Meals the whole family enjoys include sweet potato burritos, black bean burgers and stir fry.
But Jeff and Laura don't force their vegan diet on the kids.
"If they have friends over and they want to have pizza, we buy them a regular pizza," Laura said. "If the grandparents take them to McDonald's for a Happy Meal, we're not going to jump up and down."
At the end of the 60-day experiment, Jeff had lost 31 pounds. Equally impressive, his overall cholesterol level dropped from 128 to 87, his LDL cholesterol plummeted from 70 to 47 and his triglycerides plunged from 151 to 69.

The Associated Press
ROTTERDAM, Netherlands — U.N. chemical weapons inspectors are believed to have arrived in the Netherlands, where samples they collected in Syria are expected to be repackaged and sent to laboratories around Europe. The goal will be to check them for traces of poison gas that may have been unleashed in an Aug. 21 bombardment of a Damascus suburb.
The inspectors earlier left Syria and flew out of Lebanon early Saturday. An aircraft believed to have been chartered by the German government landed in Rotterdam on Saturday afternoon.
The team on Friday carried out a fourth and final day of inspection as they sought to determine precisely what happened in the Aug. 21 alleged chemical weapons attack near Damascus.
Tests on the samples are expected to take days, but U.N. disarmament chief Angela Kane is to brief Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon later Saturday on the investigation.
President Barack Obama said he is weighing "limited and narrow" action against the Syrian regime his administration blames for the attack.
In Moscow, Russian President Vladimir Putin urged Obama not to rush into a decision. The Russian leader said he was convinced the attack was a provocation carried out by those who want to draw the U.S. into the conflict, but that Washington should show any evidence to the contrary to the United Nations inspectors and the U.N. Security Council.
"If there is evidence it should be presented," Putin said. "If it is not presented, that means it does not exist."
Russia is one of Syrian President Bashar Assad's staunchest allies. Putin's comments were his first on the crisis since the suspected chemical weapons attack on rebel-held suburbs of Damascus on Aug. 21.
The U.N. inspectors spent three days this week touring stricken areas near Damascus and a fourth day interviewing patients at a government-run military hospital. They wrapped up their investigation Friday and left Syria on Saturday, via Lebanon.
The experts took blood and urine samples from victims as well as soil samples from the affected areas for examination in laboratories in Europe. The U.N. has said it will try to expedite its final report. U.N. disarmament chief Angela Kane is to brief Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon later Saturday on the investigation.
With the inspectors now out of Syria, the looming confrontation between the U.S. and Assad's regime moves one step closer to coming to a head. Most observers viewed U.S. military action as unlikely while the U.N. team was still inside Syria, but the Obama administration has made clear that it is confident in its assessment and could act before the U.N. releases the results of its probe.
Obama has said that if he opts for a military strike, any operation would be limited in scope and only aimed at punishing Assad for his alleged use of chemical weapons.
But U.S. action carries the potential to trigger retaliation by the Syrian regime or its proxies against U.S. allies in the region, such as Jordan, Turkey and Israel. That would be a dangerous new turn for the Syrian civil war, which has already killed more than 100,000 people, forced nearly 2 million to flee and inflamed tensions across the Middle East.
While Obama long has been wary of U.S. military involvement in the conflict, the administration on Friday forcefully made its case for action. It accused the Assad regime of carrying out what it says was a chemical attack on Aug. 21 that killed at least 1,429 people – far more than previous estimates – including more than 400 children.

| Title:
|Special Emphasis: Trenching and Excavation
| Information Date:
OSHA Instruction CPL 2.69 September 19, 1985 Office of General Industry Compliance Assistance
Subject: Special Emphasis Program: Trenching and Excavation
A. Purpose. This instruction establishes a National Emphasis Program (NEP) for the programmed safety inspection of trenching and excavation operations in accordance with the provisions of the Field operations Manual (FOM), chapter II, E.2.b. (4)
B. Scope. This instruction applies OSHA-WIDE.
C. Action. Regional Administrators and Area Directors shall ensure that the procedures established in this instruction are adhered to in scheduling programmed inspections.
D. Federal Program Change. This instruction describes a Federal program change which affects State programs. Each Regional Administrator shall:
1. Ensure that this change is promptly forwarded to each State designee.E. Background. Because of the continuing incidence of trench/excavation collapses and accompanying loss of life, the agency has determined that an increased OSHA enforcement presence at worksites where such operations are being conducted is warranted.
1. Trenching and excavation work creates hazards to workers which are extremely dangerous. Compliance with OSHA construction standards applicable to such operations is frequently bypassed because of economic pressures, a belief that compliance is unnecessary or an expectation that these short-term operations will go undetected.F. Procedures.
1. All compliance personnel shall be instructed to be on the lookout for trenching or excavation worksites. Every observation of such operations shall be handled as follows:G. Recording in IMIS. The following guidelines shall be applied when recording inspections conducted under this NEP or other inspections where trenching or excavation operations are found:a. Regardless of whether or not a violation is observed, whenever a CSHO sights or receives any other notice of a trenching or excavation operation (including nonformal complaints, other government agency referrals, and reports from members of the public) the CSHO shall:2. The discovery of these worksites may be the result of a specific search to find this type of operation, at the discretion of the Regional Administrator. Although sightings normally will be those which occur during the course of routine travel during duty or nonduty hours, Regional policy may provide that the Area Director saturate areas of high construction activity for the purpose of identifying all trenching and excavation sites within that area as far as reasonably possible verification of information received from sources other than CSHO observation, as indicated in F.1.a. is also permitted under this NEP.(1) Make note of the state and condition of the work operation insofar as it is known, including any apparent serious hazards.b. All trenching and excavation worksites brought to the attention of the Area Office shall be inspected as follows:
1. Current instructions for completing the appropriate inspection classification boxes (Items 24 and 25) on the Inspect ion Report, OSHA-1 Form, as found in the IMIS Manual shall be followed for inspections under this NEP.I. Full-Service Program Support. The Area Office is encouraged to develop outreach programs which will support the enforcement effort. Such programs might consist in letters to employers who engage in trenching or excavation operations explaining the hazards involved and what OSHA standards require. Wide publicity could be given to the National Emphasis Program. Fatality reports involving accidents related to trenches or excavations could be widely distributed in the construction industries. Attention should be focused on the assistance offered by the 7(c)(1) consultation projects in the State.a. The OSHA-1 for any programmed inspection scheduled under the procedures in the FOM, Chapter II, E.2.b. (2) shall be marked "Planned" (Item 24h.) , "Construction" (Item 25a.) and "National Emphasis Program" (Item 25d.). Record "TRENCH" in the space in Item 25d.2. Nonformal complaints, other government agency referrals and reports from the public reporting potential hazards related to trenching or excavation operations shall be recorded on an OSHA-7, Notice of Alleged Safety or Health Hazards, or an OSHA-90, Referral Report, if appropriate, in accordance with current IMIS instructions. They shall be recorded as unprogrammed inspections under the NEP as outlined in G.1.c.

for Africa (RAF)
Regional role
The Comprehensive Africa Agriculture Development Programme (CAADP) of the New Partnership for Africa's Development (NEPAD) has been endorsed by the African Heads of State and Government for the restoration of agricultural growth, food security, and rural development in Africa. A specific goal of CAADP is to attain an average annual growth rate of 6 percent in agriculture. Meeting crop water requirement is a pre-requisite for both rainfed and irrigated agriculture. Not surprisingly, the first pillar of the CAADP is the expansion of the area under reliable water control systems and sustainable land management. Currently, there are only 9 million ha of land under water management in the region, representing 5 percent of the total cultivated area – by far the lowest proportion of any region in the world. In March 2007, the Ouagadougou Call, aimed mainly to decision-makers engaged in agricultural water development in sub-Sahara Africa, recommended that governments and their development partners increase investment in agricultural water development for both improved rainfed and irrigated agriculture and invest in viable and sustainable project, conceived for maximum profitability, poverty reduction and growth.
To address these issues, the RAFT/Land and Water unit (RAFT/NR) of the FAO Regional office focuses on activities to improve the management and sustainable use of land and water resources for food security and improved livelihoods. In the region, RAFT/NR will:
The unit is also participating in water resources and agricultural sector reviews to identify national/regional needs and to prioritize the management, development and conservation of land and water resources.
Current activities
Identification; formulation and technical backstopping of water control component projects
The RAFT/NR unit is participating in the formulation and implementation of water control component projects of National Programmes for Food Security (NPFS) and other Land and Water related projects.
Urban and periurban irrigated agriculture
Urban and periurban irrigated agriculture is now seen as an increasingly important means of contributing to food security in Africa. Due to the increasing population and the consequent demand for more water for several uses, many governments have put in place programmes to conserve water and more attempts are being made by some to recycle wastewater for several uses including agriculture. Currently, in the absence of any other choice, farmers often use untreated wastewater despite of the potential health risks involved.
RAFT/NR has initiated two case studies the economic and environmental analysis of irrigation practices in urban and peri-urban agriculture in Benin and Burkina Faso in collaboration with Faculté des Sciences Agronomiques (FSA) of Université d'Abomey Calavi in Cotonou, Benin and the Institut du Développement Rural (IDR) of Université Polytechnique de Bobo-Dioulasso, Burkina Faso.
RAFT/NR is also contributing in collaboration with the Sub regional office for West Africa (SFW) to the implementation of the FAO-KNUST project on minimal health risk reduction options for vegetable production in Ghana in the framework of the WHO 2006 guidelines for wastewater use in agriculture.
Wetland development and management
Conservatively, inland valley wetlands (bas-fonds, dambos, vleis, mbugas) in Sub Saharan Africa are estimated to cover about 135 million ha spread over diverse agro-ecological zones. Less than 2 percent of this is currently being used for agriculture. Most rice in West Africa is produced in inland valleys by small farm holders who use few or no external resources and who have a varying balance between subsistence and commercial objectives. Challenges that preclude the realization of this enormous but fragile potential are lack of appropriate characterization and classification, based on good knowledge of the many interactions that ultimately determine the functions of a wetland, lack of investment in water management techniques and infrastructure development (including roads and markets), social and cultural constraints. RAFT/NR is contributing to the preparation and publication of guidelines on sustainable inland wetland development in collaboration with the Sub regional offices for Southern Africa (SFS), Eastern Africa (SFE), West Africa (SFW) and Central Africa (SFC).
Land and water Knowledge Management, Information Systems, Databases and Statistics
RAFT/NR is working towards updating data and information on formal and informal irrigation within the Region. In collaboration with the Sub Regional office for West Africa and RAFT/ES, the unit is contributing to the development of a methodology to record data and information on formal and informal irrigation in the framework of the national agricultural census. The unit is also contributing to follow up the recommendations of the FAO - ARID Regional Workshop on 'Informal Irrigation: importance and prospects in West and Central Africa' held in Burkina Faso.

Thomas Russo, the former vice chairman and chief legal officer of Lehman Brothers, met last night with students in a Community Forum discussion about the financial crisis. Russo will be teaching the half-term summer course "Credit Crisis: As Seen Through Different Lenses."
In a 45-minute presentation, followed by a Q&A, Russo gave his perspective on the origins and fallout of the crisis. One topic he focused on was the changing role of leverage for banks.
"Leverage now has a lot of bad things attached to it, but that's the way we make money," he said. "If you change leverage, you are limiting profitability."
He predicted that it will be easier for smaller firms to make money in the future because they will not be encumbered by the enormous cost structures and lack of flexibility that larger institutions have.
"Since banks won't have leverage down the road, it will be harder in the institutional sense to make money," he said. "There will be more opportunity to make money outside the institution. Things in the future will be developed by smaller entities."
Segueing into advice for future CEOs in the audience, Russo said the most important thing to remember was to have multiple points of view.
"You have to put yourself in other people's shoes," he advised. "Understand that every problem has many sides and if you're in the decision-making role, you have to look at all of them."

Moody's Investors Service released its annual review of Poudre Valley Health System's bond rating on August 25 and affirmed the health system's rating of A2.
Moody's stated that PVHS has "very strong financial performance."
"The outlook is stable," the investors service added, "reflecting our expectation that PVHS will continue to report strong earnings."
The A2 rating has been in effect since September when Moody's upgraded the health system's A3 rating to A2 for $340 million in bonds. In September, Standard & Poor's upgraded the health system's rating from A- to A.
Rulon Stacey, PVHS president and CEO, said the continued A2 rating from Moody's is "exceptionally good news, given the way the national economy and health care in general are in a continuous state of financial flux."
Stacey noted that studies have shown that about half of America's hospitals are operating in the financial red and national healthcare reform will mean more financial challenges are ahead for the industry.
"Years ago we made the conscious decision at PVHS that by maintaining high quality patient care we'll be able to remain in a healthy financial position," Stacey pointed out. "Our employees, physicians and volunteers have continued to emphasize quality while trying to minimize expenses. This good news from Moody's demonstrates that the tactic has beneficial."
University of Colorado Health employees dedicate themselves to providing patients and other customers with world-class care and service.

- Distribution Modeller: Environmental Modelling at the Speed of ThoughtDistribution Modeller (temporary name only!) is CEES' end-to-end browser tool that lets the researcher to rapidly import data, supplement that data with environmental info from FetchClimate, specify an arbitrary model by point and click or in code, parameterize the model against the data using Filzbach, make and visualize predictions with a full propagation of parameter uncertainty – then package and share everytihng, in a way that is inspectable, repeatable, and modifiable.
- Species Distribution ModellingSpecies Distribution Modelling (SDM) aims to explain why species occur where they do, and why they do not occur anywhere else. For instance, why does an oak tree not occur further south in hotter and dryer regions, and why it may not occur further north in colder and wetter regions? This sort of information is amongst the most fundamental of all ecological knowledge and is of great societal importance. Distribution data can feed into almost all other biodiversity models, and can inform adaptive
- FilzbachFilzbach is a flexible, fast, robust, parameter estimation engine that allows you to parameterize arbitrary, non-linear models, of the kind that are necessary in biological sciences, against multiple, heterogeneous data sets. Filzbach allows for Bayesian parameter estimation, maximum likelihood analysis, priors, latents, hierarchies, error propagation and model selection, often with just a few lines of code.

FetchClimate is a fast, free, intelligent environmental information retrieval service that operates over the cloud to return only the environmental data you need. FetchClimate can be accessed either through a simple web interface or via a few lines of code inside any program.
- The probabilistic terrestrial carbon model: towards actionable predictionsClimate change is the greatest global challenge of the 21st century. Models that reliably forecast future climates associated with different policy scenarios are urgently needed. This project has developed a new model for the key source of uncertainty in earth system models: the terrestrial carbon climate feedback, using a methodology to account for all known sources of uncertainty and enable robust estimates of the confidence that can be placed in predictions and objective model refinement.

Given the importance of everything cloud, you might ask yourself why haven't Google Chromebooks taken off in New Zealand.
This is partly because they haven't been officially launched here.
Chromebooks are low-cost laptops designed for use with cloud applications. Think of them as thin clients.
Physically most Chromebooks sit somewhere between the traditional laptop and the Ultrabook format. Typically they have low-end processors and small SSDs. Many have built-in 3G data modems.
Chromebooks run Google's lightweight Chrome OS. The operating system is effectively a swept-up version of Google's Chrome browser. That makes it idea to use with cloud applications, especially Google Apps. They can't realistically run anything other than cloud apps.
So why bother?
Because they make life simple. There's nothing to maintain or setup, Google does all that for you.
You switch on and go. It takes just 8 seconds to boot. Any updating happens automatically in the background. All your data is stored in the cloud. You don't have to worry about making back-ups. And their design makes them secure when compared to other small computers.
This makes them great for businesses run by people who can't or don't want to bother with traditional computers and all the support they need.
But then so are tablets. And that's why I'm not in the market for a Chromebook. Are you?

Two Brampton women were bestowed with the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal for their achievements.
Jenna Bailey, 27, received the honour for her contribution to Aboriginal education, whereas Anu Srivastava, a financial controller at the City of Brampton, was chosen for her part in bringing several international cultural events to the city.
The medal marks the 60th anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II's accession to the throne.
Bailey, a Inuit kindergarten teacher in Ottawa, was feted by the Congress of Aboriginal Peoples as part of the medal ceremony. Her class is the first and only congregated Inuit class in a public school board in Southern Canada. A few years ago, the former Mayfield Secondary School student, relocated to Clyde River in Nunavut, a remote fly-in community approximately 400 kilometres north of the Arctic Circle, to teach Grade 6 students there.
Bailey believes in empowering students through a blend of education and culture. So, when she was asked to develop a science curriculum for use in outreach programs in Nunavut, Northwest Territories, Northern Ontario and Northern B.C., Bailey delved into her stint and experience with her aboriginal students and used those insights.
"I became interested in aboriginal education after reading a book called Relocating Eden which was about the forced Inuit relocation during the 1950's," Bailey explained. "When developing curriculum, whether it is for outreach programs in remote communities or doing curriculum programming for the Inuit Kindergarten class I currently teach, it's important for me to find a cultural entry point for concepts and ideas to maximize the engagement of the students."
Brampton-Springdale MP Parm Gill presented Srivastava with the medal at a weekend ceremony held in the city. Srivastava, a committee member of Trillium Health Centre Foundation, has helped the hospital raise millions of dollars. She's also the treasurer/ board member of Panorama India. Srivastava's accomplishments include spearheading the IIFA Buzz Brampton and bringing the first-ever TIFF Breakaway launch party outside of Toronto to Brampton.
The Bramptonian is also the recipient of Midweek Award of top ten South Asians in North America.

There are a number of components that distinguish every love seat. The upholstery material, pattern and color can liven up or alter the mood of a waiting area. High-quality materials and durable construction ensure that our reception furniture will grace your company through many years of professional success.
First impressions have the potential to spark longstanding relationships. Each person that enters a work space has a unique response to the physical surroundings which will impact their overall feelings regarding the company. With reception furniture that projects an accurate image of your company, you will have a better chance of attracting clients who are compatible with your business philosophy.
Having comfortable seating in the waiting area demonstrates a personal regard for every individual that comes into an office. With a warm and homey environment to wait in, people won't mind if they have to sit down for a few extra minutes before being called in to a meeting or appointment. Loveseats offer the opportunity to show warm hospitality and good taste.
High-level executives with large personal offices might also enjoy having a comfortable place to sit from time to time. A settee provides a cushy place to relax for a few minutes during the long work day, so professionals can return to work rejuvenated. Company presidents, school principals and firm partners host all kinds of meetings in their offices. Love seats provide an appropriate place for more informal situations. Their cozy homey feel will diffuse pressure and enable professionals to enjoy open communication.
Many factors contribute to the overall style of a love seat. One important component is the upholstery. We have models with leather, vinyl or fabric upholstery options. Each of these materials has its own unique benefits. Leather is a timeless selection which leaves a luxurious high-class impression. Vinyl is easy to clean and resists tears. Fabric is available in a huge selection of colors and patterns so you can coordinate with virtually any space or color scheme.
The unique designs of a particular reception seating collection work in conjunction with the upholstery that is selected. We have a number of seating options which are appropriate for a variety of spaces. The High Point Rotunda Collection offers a modular arrangement which provides the ultimate flexibility. Individual components can be lined up however you choose. With pieces in unique shapes and sizes, you can even create curved configurations that incorporate side tables. For those who are not sure whether individual guest chairs or sofa-style seating is preferable, Rotunda reception seating can be arranged and rearranged until the ideal custom-style fit is achieved.
Some law offices, accounting firms and other companies who offer highly-skilled professional services like to project a classic image of authority and expertise. Better Built Quality offers traditional sofas modeled after Chesterfield couches. A conservative style is achieved by hand-tufted accents with brass-nail trim. The vinyl seats will maintain their appeal through many years of mergers and acquisitions.
A cutting-edge startup or other modern business venture requires unique furnishings that demonstrate contemporary style. The Princeton Collection from Regency seating has a modern style that is classy enough for a serious business. The settee, sofa and chair are upholstered with luxurious top-grain leather.
Depending on what kind of company or practice you have, adults might not be the only clients you need to please. When furnishing an office for a doctor, dentist or therapist who treats children, it is important to make sure that young patrons can enjoy the same comfort as their older counterparts. A childrens loveseat will fit right in with other reception furnishings, while demonstrating your practice's concern for patients of all ages.
Let Hertz Furniture help you make a positive first impression that will stick with our cozy and attractive collection of loveseats and settees. Our reception furniture will transform your waiting room into an inviting and professional space. If you require assistance while selecting upholstery patterns or you aren't quite sure how many seats you need in your space, contact the Hertz Design Center for free project-planning advice.

Lesro also brings you great conference tables and library furniture. Their products are Made in the USA and come with a Limited Lifetime Warranty, so you are guaranteed to enjoy this innovative, high-quality furniture for many years to come. Liven up your reception area, office, conference room or library with the simple elegance of Lesro.
The reception seating experts offer an unbelievable selection of lounge chairs and reception chairs.

They can be ordered as individual units or as long rows of attached seats. A selection of fabrics enables you to coordinate lobby chairs with any decor or color scheme for a well-matched professional space.
Reception area furniture is about more than just seating. When visitors come in to your business or institution on a cold or rainy day, they will also need a place to hang their coats. The waiting room is the ideal space for a coat rack because visitors can easily pick up their outerwear as they exit your workspace and won't have to carry around jackets as they hunt for an appropriate place to put them. Lesro coat racks come in both freestanding and wall-mounted models. While free-standing units have a classic old world charm, wall-mounted hooks leave more open floor space.
The versatile design of Lesro chairs makes them a perfect fit for virtually any part of a work space. Swivel office chairs can be used by professionals as they sit at their desks throughout the workday. If you need a temporary solution for seminars or multi-purpose areas, some guest chair models are also stacking chairs, so they can easily be put into storage or transported from place to place.
Great guest chairs will also fit well in a library around some wooden study tables. If you are tired of the same old school library furniture, and are looking for a way to update your space, new library chairs can get the job done. Let students and employees take advantage of comfortable padding and liven up your space with a uniform upholstery hue or some vibrant complementary colors.
In addition to experiencing the reception area, many clients, colleagues and potential donors will spend significant amounts of time in a company's conference room. When negotiating a company merger or long-term contract, you want to make sure that this critical venue has a comfortable yet professional atmosphere. Some attractive and cozy guest seating will keep all meeting attendees properly supported so they can focus on the discussions that are taking place. Appropriate seating will demonstrate the competence and financial stability of your company or institution.
High- and low-back swivel office chairs are also a viable option for conference room seating. They will help meeting attendees find a more comfortable position, as their design promotes flexibility and movement. Casters make office chairs easy to arrange and move around when setting up your space.
Whatever the size of your conference room is, you need a conference table so everyone can lay out notes and important documents. Conference tables come in a number of shapes including racetrack, octagon, boat and oval. Solid wood tables are super sleek and sturdy. They create a serious atmosphere that is conducive to tough negotiations and discussions of critical decisions.
Demonstrate the professional competence and aesthetic sense of your company or institution with reception furniture, conference tables and library furniture from Lesro. The simple elegance of each model can fit a company of any style or size. If you need help narrowing down the choices or choosing the perfect upholstery colors, contact the Hertz Design Center for free project-planning advice.
