Just Think "It's important to view all employees as valued assets, and treat them with the personal dignity and respect that they're entitled to as human beings. If you do that, it's a smart business decision."

Need a Read? We have to admit, Fat Free Meetings by Burt Albert (1996, Peterson's) initially caught our eye because of its clever title. But the book actually has a lot of heft to it. A chapter titled "Endless Corkscrews" talks about how to direct, and even map, collaborative discussions, while "And the Oscar Goes To ..." discusses the various stakeholders who attend meetings and how to view an event from their perspective. Overall, this book is a downright funny look at making company meetings more effective!
New Sensation Sure to be a draw for incentive groups, Palazzo Versace opened this past summer on the Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia. The late fashion designer Gianni Versace's vision--to create a place of renaissance beauty, serenity, and grace--has come to life with this 146-room, 59-suite resort on the Broadwater, just next to Marina Mirage, the world-class shopping venue. Speaking of shopping, there's a Versace boutique at the entrance to the Grand Ballroom (which can seat 600 theater-style). Operator Sunland Hotels and Resorts aims to open several other Versace hotels in the coming years and to be "the most preferred, brand-recognized, and profitable ultra-deluxe chain within 10 years."

I love yellow. I have bright yellow accents in my apartment and one of these would be perfect!
Yellow is such an amazingly effective color for bringing happiness and warmth to a space! I'm still fully in love with my mellow yellow home office/guest bedroom! It's stimulating yet relaxing at the same time!!!
niceeee! light!
The yellow of the lamps does make the artificial light feel more like warm sunshine on an emotional level.

I have a Dell PC desktop and I've been using Norton Symantec Antivirus software for the last 4yrs or so. But as of latley I've been getting a virus and/or spyware here and there that Norton is not detecting.
So I called Norton told them the problem that this is not the first time a virus/spyware that has not been detected in my computer by you guys. That I have the all in one (2nd best package) that you guys offer and it never seems to fail that whenever there is a problem you guys want MORE and MORE money from people like me, when I shouldn't have to pay another dime for another program that you guys offer when considering what I paid for a program that was suppose to be protecting my computer already. This is just another way for you guys to continue to make more money off of us people and it is b.s.
I've checked out a site by AntiVirus Software Review 2010
I've been told by a friend that AVG antivirus program is real good.
So I ask you guys this, what Antivirus Software is the best one out there you think?
Thank you all in advance for your help!!!

She established her first real estate office, a Century 21 franchise, in Edmond, Okla., in 1975; soon after, it was the third top-producing office out of 7,500 Century 21 locations in North America.

Illnesses or injuries can often be treated with relatively simple measures such as medication, rest, changes in diet, exercise or other non-invasive therapy. But, in some cases, surgery is the only answer.
General surgeons commonly perform procedures for:
Some surgeries have to happen quickly on short notice or in emergencies. Other types of surgery can be planned in advance.
If you need an operation, your primary-care doctor will refer you to a surgeon. After making sure that surgery is the best option for you, the surgeon will help you prepare for the operation.
Where your surgery is done will depend on the type of surgery. If it is relatively minor, it may be done in a procedure room at the doctor's office. Major surgery is usually done in a hospital or outpatient surgery center.
Depending on the type of surgery and your health, you may be able to go home the same day after your surgery. Or you may need to stay in the hospital to recover.
General surgeons use "minimally invasive" tools and techniques whenever possible so that you heal faster.
PeaceHealth Medical Group has a highly experienced and board-certified general surgeon who can meet your surgical needs:

Mobtown Beat
Jesse Jackson Rallies Against Youth Jail
200 people speak out against the O'Malley-backed project
Published: November 14, 2012
Two days after sweeping victories for Democrats on Election Day, Jesse Jackson visited Baltimore for a "Reallocate to Recreate" rally to stop a planned $70 million youth detention center. "We will not win on Tuesday and lose on Thursday," the two-time presidential candidate said to about 200 people in War Memorial Building.
The Nov. 8 rally took on the air of a tent revival as the crowd clapped and shouted "Tell it" to speakers and singers. They told it.
Sheila Parker came at the request of her church, Douglas Memorial. "My son is 10," she said. "I don't want anything bad to happen to him."
The rally organizers set up a giant checker game, a mini bowling alley, and a putting green to contrast what they want with what's planned. The kids knocked over pins and tossed a sponge lacrosse ball around outside the door.
People sang "Wade in the Water," "A Change Is Gonna Come," and "The Greatest Love." Antonio Ellis, 16, recited a poem ending with "We are more than The Wire. We are Baltimore."
Opposition to the planned 120-bed youth detention center began more than a year ago. Occupy Baltimore staged a tent city on the cleared site last fall. The movement has grown into a powerful organization, with most of the Baltimore City legislative delegation and City Council in its corner. Former Mayor Sheila Dixon has also spoken out against the youth jail. The O'Malley administration points to a federal consent decree requiring that the city's dilapidated and dangerous jail be upgraded. Currently, juveniles charged as adults are housed in the same building as adults charged with felonies. The Sun has published exposés on conditions inside.
Jail opponents agree that the detention center is in bad shape, but say the money earmarked for a new facility could be better spent on recreation, education, and other social services to prevent juvenile crime.
"Jack [Young, City Council president,] just reminded me that they want to build the jail in my district," City Councilman Carl Stokes told the gathering. "What we want to build in this district is young people's lives." He notes that the proposed $70 million facility is "three times as big as the one they have now, because they've already determined that that's where they want to put our children."
Indeed, the anti-jail protests rest on the premise that African-American children end up there for no particular reason or for reasons beyond their control. "The money that is going to the jail should go to our kids instead," said Del. Barbara Robinson (D-Baltimore City). "They say that it will have a state-of-the-art school. They say that it will have a state-of-the-art recreation center. I've never known a child who wants to go to jail to get those things."
"If they build it, they will fill it," Young told the crowd. "I say 'Hell no' to the jail."
Activists believe that money spent on recreation will prevent crime.
"If we spend this money on opportunity, there won't be any youth to lock up," said Vernon Crowffey, a youth organizer with rally co-organizer, the Safe and Sound Campaign. In and out of jail by 10th grade, Crowffey says he trained as a carpenter and now specializes in building greenhouses. A person his name and age has a second-degree assault charge pending in District Court, according to online court records. The trial date is Nov. 15.
Pastor Todd Yeary, who invited Jackson to address the Baltimore movement, emphasized the actions that must be taken beyond the rally. "Our cause is right but our plan must be complete," he said, urging a focus on education, training, and strengthening families.
Jackson asked the crowd to chant after him: "Stop the violence. Save the children." He said he had spoken earlier to middle-school children and told them the state was building a jail for them, so "you have to make choices." Jackson said he had asked the kids how many had a working parent and that almost none of them did. "Does it stand to reason that a jail becomes a homeless shelter?" Jackson asked. He said a group of gang members in Chicago had recently met with him, looking for work after getting out of prison. "They go to school, they get five meals a week," Jackson said. "In jail, they get 21."
With a 40 percent unemployment rate, Jackson said, "the community is in jail."
Jackson said he had met with O'Malley and asked him to help devise a plan to rebuild 10,000 of the city's vacant and abandoned houses—a figure that coincidentally matches Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake's goal for her two-year-old "Vacants to Value" initiative. "Why not a plan to reconstruct 10,000 houses—not a detention center," Jackson said. "Let the people build the houses. Let the people lay the bricks. Let the people find security."
The crowd began to disperse as Safe and Sound's Tyrone Barnwell urged them to call and email O'Malley's office. "Let's flood the governor's phone lines," he told the departing crowd.
"Contact your neighborhood organization," Barnwell added. "Make sure your community rec center has put in their application for their share of the jail money."

As the film gears up for the awards season and its theatrical bow, a new featurette has come online focusing on Segel's return. And if anything, it emphasizes Apatow's trademark loose filmmaking approach, which allows for a lot of improv and in-the-moment inspiration to be part of the process. Of course, Leslie Mann's Debbie is flattered by trainer Jason's attention, particularly as she's turning 40 and she begins to question her own beauty, especially when faced with Megan Fox's youthful body.

When my son was having all his tummy issues, he had some paper where he had to write/draw his biggest wish. All the other kids had things like meeting someone famous, going to disney world, etc. His was that his tummy would feel good. It broke my heart. I can only imagine how this must feel. I'm sorry for all of you!

As OHN suggests, kids are not constrained by what is 'possible' or what is 'proper' to think and wish...
Wishes held in the heart can be oh so much more rewarding than what we know in our mind. We all value and appreciate those wishes and those memories, if only one-one/hundreth as much as Sis or Mom or family.

That is so sweet, so pure, so sad, so honest.
A masterpiece memorial.

I am just glad that Middling has been able to put her thoughts and feelings into words. I am sure that it will help her to come to terms with her miss.
Much Love Sybil xx

She said it all in those brief pure words. Children are so wonderful. Still thinking about you and sending up little prayers for you.

you wanted Henry in a dream and felt comforted by it. Is it possible to ask your daughters for what kind of signal they would like to have from Henry that would be their very own? I don't know if you believe in that kind of thing, but I feel that karma would at least put things in place for them!
- May 15, 2009 at 12:38 PM
Well said, Middling. She is saying what you are all feeling.

How beautiful. I love that kid's can say things from their hearts, things that adults are sometimes reluctant to say.

Sennheiser adidas PMX 680
Amongst the best-built, top-sounding 'neckband' headphones, the Sennheiser PMX 680 are co-branded with Adidas for sporting looks and max durability in tough wet conditions.

Recommend Product: No
Pros: Sound, Fit, stays in place
Cons: Durability, comfort, Volume control
First is the stupidly placed volume control that when removed leaves you with a one foot cord that can only be plugged into an arm strap. When trying to workout with this you have to clip it awkwardly onto the neck of your shirt if you don't want it flopping around.
Second, is the comfort of the earpiece. The yellow rubber around the ears fell off after about two weeks and now I can't wear the headphones for more than a couple hours without my ear throbbing.
Lastly, and most importantly is the quality. After 10 months they have begun shorting out. At this point I will gladly pay hundreds of dollars for headphones with some sort of long term guarantee. For now, I sit and dream of the day when I can own headphones for more than a year without them quitting on me.
Any suggestions of headphones that are more durable are welcome

Fourth rally planned Monday to push Hanna case
By Judy Masterson email@example.com February 1, 2013 7:54PM
Rev. Jesse Jackson
Updated: April 3, 2013 2:00AM
NORTH CHICAGO — It's been two years and nearly three months since Darrin "Dagwood" Hanna died a week after his arrest by police, and his family has no intention of letting anyone forget it.
Hanna's extended family and their supporters will hold a rally and press conference before the next meeting of the North Chicago City Council on Monday. It will be the fourth such rally since Hanna's death on Nov. 13, 2011, and the third attended by representatives of the Chicago-based civil rights group Rainbow/PUSH Coalition.
The Hanna family's insistence that the seven officers involved in the arrest be criminally charged took on renewed energy last month after new Lake County Coroner Thomas Rudd announced that the 45-year-old Hanna's death was a homicide. The manner of death was previously ruled "undetermined" by former Lake County Coroner Artis Yancey despite a forensic autopsy that found Hanna died as a result of sickle cell crisis brought on by chronic health problems and police use of force in allegedly subduing him.
Rainbow/PUSH Coalition founder the Rev. Jesse Jackson is scheduled to attend the rally, marking his third visit to the city in protest of alleged police brutality. The event begins at 4:30 p.m. at First Corinthian Baptist Church, 1529 Elizabeth Ave., North Chicago, and will move at 6 p.m. to North Chicago City Hall, at the corner of Argonne Drive and Lewis Avenue.
"The family wants to call the mayor to the carpet," said attorney Kevin O'Connor, who filed a federal wrongful death lawsuit in 2011 on behalf of Hanna's mother and son.
O'Connor cited public comments made by the mayor, accompanied by the verbal agreement of his aldermen, that he would fire the arresting officers if investigations revealed solid proof of wrongdoing. But while the city fired one officer for punching Hanna in the face and lying that Hanna was attempting to bite and head butt him while he had him in a headlock, and disciplined another for falsifying a report, no other action has been taken against the remaining five officers.
Rockingham could not be reached for comment Friday. But the city released a statement Jan. 22 that said Rudd's dispute of the findings of "medical experts, doctors who treated Mr. Hanna and multiple law enforcement agencies" did not change its position in the matter: That previous investigations, including its own, "found no basis for criminal charges against any of the officers involved."
Ralph Peterson of Waukegan, Hanna's cousin, has brought forward evidence in both the Hanna death and numerous other cases of alleged excessive force by certain North Chicago police officers, some that have resulted in out-of-court settlements or lawsuits.
"History has shown that the police kill, pay out big money, then it's forgotten about and they go kill again," Peterson said.
"Money is not a priority for us. Justice is our priority. We're seeking charges."
Peterson and another Hanna cousin, state Rep. Rita Mayfield, D-Waukegan, have argued in numerous confrontations with the City Council, that Hanna, who was unarmed during his arrest on an alleged charge of domestic violence, was no threat.
According to at least one police report, he was quickly taken to the ground.
"But they still used maximum force," Peterson said.

Boston >Bars & Clubs > McGreevy's
911 Boylston St, Boston, MA | Directions 0211542.348338 -71.084345
Daily 11am-2am
Neighborhoods: Back Bay, Back Bay West
Citysearch Editorial Review – Only 1,200 steps--count 'em--from Fenway Park, Irish bar McGreevy's serves up brews and pub grub and offers wall-to-wall televisions like any respectable sports bar. What sets it apart is its location, associated with America's first sport bar, the Third Base Saloon owned by one "Nuf Ced" McGreevy. Equally impressive and nostalgic are the Boston Red Sox and baseball memorabilia displayed at the bar. McGreevy's also boasts a famed co-owner, Dropkick Murphys' Ken Casey. Because of its casual menu (like shepherd's pie and steak tips) and intense sports viewing, it's a nightlife favorite with a sports-history-geek sheen.
not for me – What am I doing here? I'm trapped in a Red Sox dominated, Dropkick Murphy's run sports bar, not exactly two of my favorite offerings, as Un-Bostonian as that may be. But above all else, I'm here with friends, and its a beautiful summer day, and it's Red Sox-Yankees weekend so why the hell not? Is McGreevy's a bar that serves food or is it a place to grab some pub food and knock back a few pints while watching the game? I'm not sure, and I'm not sure it matters, but for the purpose of this blog, we want places to eat that serve good burgers. This is not the place to do that. The food isn't bad, it's just food, I suppose a purpose is served, of course not for my high standards though.
I would never harbor on something like service if it wasn't a factor, but the service here is atrocious. We waited a good ten minutes sitting at a table we picked ourselves, because no server was present. We order drinks and burgers and an order of Guiness wings. Drinks come and eventually wings, but no napkins, no silverware, and no refills on drinks after a good half-hour. At long last the burgers arrive, but the food runner has no idea which burger is which, plates are being traded among us, wondering which is medium rare which is medium well. No one knows, especially the food runner, and it's all a guessing game at this point. Oh and we still have no napkins, drink refills or silverware at this point.
Everything gets sorted out and we can eat, at long last. The meat, luckily, isn't bland, but has an unpleasant taste. It instantly reminds me of a chain in Canada called Harvey's, which always made me think of a burger that tasted like a hot dog when I was a kid. The fries are pub fires, we've all had them, thick, decent in taste but dry and flavorless on the inside. The lettuce my burger is brown is spots and the tomato tastes like it was from last winter. The bun tastes stale to me, is untoasted and there is way too much of it. The burgers are supposedly char-broiled, but there is no char, not even a little, and of course it's not cooked to the right temperature, but what else is new. The cheese is unmelted, sort of plastic-y, not worthy of any burger, well, maybe this one. The burger runs $8, drinks are $3 with free refills and the service is horrendous. Still, with friends, watching a baseball game, life is pretty good, I just wish the burgers were too.
staff, bar, kitchen = fail – I sent back my flat soda and 10 minutes later, the waitress brought me another flat soda. My "medium well" steak tips were burned a bit on the outside and COLD, BLOOD RED on the inside. The nachos we ordered were delivered by an expediter with no plates. I think the "cheese" they put on them was Kraft singles. Just. Plain. Awful.
Steer clear of this joke joint. The pictures on the walls are nice, but you'd have a more enjoyable meal at the Sausage King street vendor nearby.
Worst part of the service? The place was almost empty and they still couldn't do anything right. What a terrible disappointment. I guess if you can play music it doesn't mean you can run a restaurant.
Great spot to catch up with Friends – Great Atmosphere to Hang out for a couple of drinks with friends.
McGreevy's is the Best Bar in Boston! – So I've been to McGreevy's about a half dozen times, and I have to say it's the best bar in Boston! Number one the Red Sox memorabilia is amazing, and I'm not a huge sports buff. The walls are saturated with some serious Red Sox history, and when I say history I'm not talking a wall full of team photos from day one to 2008. It covers the history of...ahh heck I could go for ever. Trust me if your a sports fan it's a must see just for that alone. Now if you add the food, drink, and service...I hate to sound cliche, but it's a home run. I've had the sheppards pie, chicken sandwich, and potato skins. I'm originally from Chicago and love my food, and McGreevy's is top notch. They've got a great beer selection from Guiness to Pabst which is another score in my book. I personally am a PBR/Schlitz kind of guy that has a fridge full of Guiness at home. (Try to figure that out!) The staff is also great! I have to say the waitresses that waited on our table were on it and made us feel like we've been coming in for years even though it's only been open (in that location) since April. I also have to say I have seen a celebrity or two in there just about everytime I've gone in, and the cool thing about it was that it was like hanging out at my local tavern. It's definitely the coolest bar in Boston without a bunch of scenesters running around. Oh yea, the music selection is pretty good. It's a mixture of all types of rock and roll with a little spice of punk rock. I suggest if you have not been, or plan on traveling to Boston you must go to McGreevy's.
Nice change from other sports bars – Mcgreevys did a great job in bringing an old time baseball/sports tavern to the Back Bay. They have the perfect set up if you have a big group of people to watch a ball game. I watched all of the Laker-Celtics games there with all my friends and even when people were in front of you while sitting in one of their many high rise booths, you could still see the game. It is much classier and a better atmosphere than its predecessor the Foggy Goggle. Also a nice substitute from the other dive sports down the street. The place is decorated to look like the Baseball Hall of Fame, Boston style. Also who knows you may get lucky and run into the owner Ken Casey from the Dropkick Murphys.
Extremely Overpriced – I came here with a group of friends for a birthday, the place wasn't too crowded - now I know why. The drinks are very overpriced, it is impossible to get anywhere close to the bar, terrible layout. I went to order a few shots, they ended up being $7 each and were half sized. Seemingly cool atmosphere but not worth the price one bit.
You'll want to go again and again – This past summer I was in town for a convention. I was the only woman with a bunch of guys. I insisted that we try out McGreevys. I had heard about it from DKM. Being a Red Sox fan and wanting to make my son jealous, I had to check this place out. The guys allowed me to drag them there. Then they had to be dragged out to get to Fenway on time. Anyways, the service was excellent, the atmosphere was outstanding. This was the only place we went to more that once during our stay. My son and I plan to make many trips to Boston and McGreevy's will be the first stop. (on our way to Fenway of course!!!)
the original sports bar – I've been to McGreevys over a dozen times this season. I met Babe Ruths grandaughter there, took my picture with the Sox 2007 WS Trophy, got to chat with a few Bruins, Scruffy from the Dropkicks and Sean Casey and even got to give Jaba Chamberlin a piece of my mind. It's like stepping back in time with all the memoribilia and the flat screens all over make the bar a perfect place to watch the game. I love the Sheppards Pie and the Irish Boxty and in terms of booze bartender Barry and that Miss Mass. are on top of their game. I love the Cask by Fenway, but McGreevy's is unlike any other sports bar I've hung at. Maybe the Sox should have had the Dropkicks play Tessie at Fenway this year.
PS Only downside was the AC broken a few times this summer.
Great atmosphere ... – I loved it, we went to watch a few sox games and it had a great atmosphere and great food - lots of fun :-)

New month, new year, new thread...
Fantastic Four: The Resurrection of Nicholas Scratch - The final volume of Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa's run. It ended with a bit of a whimper for me. The whole series had the occasional attempt to do something a bit deeper than the standard superhero comic, but always fell short. Not bad by any means, but nothing special.
Green Lantern: Secret Origin - Decent stuff. Geoff Johns doing the kind of thing he does best. Good art from Ivan Reis.
Vigilante: City Lights, Prairy Justice - Really story and art wise, this just didn't work for me at all. The art had occasional flashes of Tim Sale-esque potential, but I think that was more down to the colouring than anything else. Mark Chiarello was the one saving grace of the book. Very good colours thoughout and beautiful covers. He's not a name I'm familiar with, but I'll notice him in the future on the strength of this.
The Batman of Arkham - What do I start reading on Christmas Eve? Something short enough to finish the same day so I can move on to the new pile of books I'll be getting for Christmas! This is a good old prestige format Elseworlds where Bruce Wayne/Batman is in charge of Arkham Asylum and is devoted to healing all of the criminals he catches as Batman. Good stuff.
Saga v1 - The first of my Christmas haul. So far so good. A good bit of space opera and some nice crazy concepts thrown in there - and good art from an artist I've never heard of. One interesting thing to note is that Vaughan has obviously deliberately gone out of his way to include things from our world like mobile phones - and whether or not you can get a signal, and mentions of high-school. I'm not ready to hail it as a classic yet, but it's already way better than Y the Last Man.

In support of the university's mission, USF recognizes that faculty, staff and the organization benefit when employees are better equipped to meet the competing demands of work, family and everyday life, and that the university has a role to play in helping the USF community achieve greater balance.
Space limitations and geographical constraints of our main San Francisco campus are such that we are not able to provide childcare onsite, however in support of employees with young children, the university offers a generous subsidy for full-time faculty and staff to help meet the cost of pre-first grade childcare.
USF's Childcare Subsidy Program is designed to recognize the university's distributed campus model, and that our employees live in a wide range of locations across the Bay Area. As such, it provides employees with the flexibility to choose a childcare provider at a location that suits their family's needs, and provides a subsidy amount to contribute to the costs of that childcare.
For information about other policies and benefits designed to support a balance of work and personal life at USF, go to Supporting Life Balance at USF.

Saving the Reality:
Visiting the museum is a unique and intense experience, not only because of the number of original artifacts, but because most are not behind glass: most can be touched. The Museum is 20 minutes west of Boston at the junction of two major highways.
Dan Aykroyd narrated video documentary
World War II, Saving the Reality
WWII Foundation
Politics, War and Personality
Fifty Iconic World War II Documents That Changed the World
Tom Hanks was the inspiration for this book when he said at the premiere of the Pacific that "The Museum is the repository for the actual Holy Grail documents of World War II." All fifty iconic documents featured in this book can be found in the Museum, from Adolph Hitler's earliest anti-Semetic rant written on the announcement of the Versailles Treaty to the order to drop the atomic bomb on Hiroshima. Throughout the museum the red letter V denotes the letters and documents included in the book. It is also available at book stores and on Amazon for $29.95.
The Failed Artist, Degenerate Art and the Monuments Men, artifacts and documents from the museum's extensive collection not previously on display.
February 1 - May 1, 2014
Upcoming Exhibitions of Museum Artifacts at Other Institutions:
- Exquisitely Evil: 50 Years of James Bond Villains, November, 2012 thru November, 2014 at the International Spy Museum, Washington
- OSS: Spy & Sabotage Equipment, permanent exhibit at the CIA Museum, Headquarters, Langley, Virginia (not open to the public)
- From Barbed Wire to Battlefields: Japanese American Experiences in WWII, March - October, 2014 at the National WWII Museum, New Orleans, LA
- The Power of Words and Images in a World at War, May - August, 2014 at the Groiler Club, New York City
This particular item is a portable altar used by Chaplain Deane Babbitt. Religion was of great importance and comfort to soldiers.
See many more of these artifacts in our Virtual Tour.

Start-up Goom is using professional DJs and will eventually support user-created radio stations, but I prefer the super-targeted approach of MTT radio.
The redesigned 2008 Volvo V70 is a stylish grocery getter with plenty of get-up-and-go. Its entertainment and active safety tech options are impressive, but its lack of Bluetooth hands-free calling is a disappointment.

The Audiophiliac went to New York's top mastering house, Sterling Sound, to watch mastering engineer Greg Calbi at work.
The 2008 Volvo S80 is one of the more comfortable cars we've tested, and gets good mileage for a car of its size. Cabin tech doesn't go out of its way to work with personal electronics, but the safety gear is cutting edge.
