First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Looking for a smartphone on a budget? You should look no further than PC World Australia's best buys. These smartphones are a rank of the top 10 handsets based on perceived value for money.
Although the smartphone market is dominated by Apple's iPhone, it isn't exactly the cheapest proposition. It is here in the best buy category that Google's Android platform shines through, making up the entire 10 selections in our August list.
The best buys for August is topped by the Huawei Sonic, which sells for just $188 in supermarket chain Woolworths and electronics retailer Dick Smith. HTC is the most popular best buy smartphone vendor in August, with a high four models including the new Desire S which is exclusive to Telstra.
The Huawei Sonic provides a reasonable features list for quite a low price. As long as you can live with its limitations, such as the lack of Flash and a poor camera, it's very hard to beat for value.
First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Got it for my girlfriend, she absolutely loved it and been wearing it for more than a month..she's says she's got a lot of compliments. You won't be sorry, just get them! Beautifully packed too. Makes a great inexpensive gift for anyone.
Very pleased with my purchase. The earrings are gorgeous. The gemstone is so bright and vibrant, it glows and looks stunning when you put them on. Great product for a great price!
I like these earrings very much. The findings are thin silver wires. The stones are very pretty. I will wear them during the warm summer months. I think they were well worth the money.
Love the earrings! Color and quality seem very good!
Quality handmade earrings for the price paid. Packaging unique and well done. Quality silver, unique stone. Recipient pleased also.
Nice blue color. Smaller than what looks like in the picture
I thought they would be larger. Very small and delicate. They are pretty but get lost in your hair.
I purchased as a gift for my friend and they are very pretty. It's exactly the same as shown in the picture and I'm I'm not disappointment. The quality of the product is excellent and it's worth the price. I think my friend will be very happy when she receives them. Keep going Ashanti. Good work. Would love to make many more purchases.
Lovely pair of dainty dangle earring, perfect for small ears.
Disappointed....these earrings look exquisite in the pictures but they are so fragile in their construction and attachement I know they will fall apart from a few wearings. I try to support World Craft made items because they are not only for a good cause but generally unusual.....these did not meet my standards.

Group renews focus on business improvement district
By Ashley Rader
The Downtown Business Association resumed discussions on creating a Central Business Improvement District, intended to spur improvements to downtown Elizabethton.
A CBID would collect an additional property tax on downtown properties to create a fund to be used by property owners.
An improvement district can be created by having more than half of the property owners in the proposed area sign a petition requesting the district or by City Council passing a resolution forming the CBID.
Councilman Richard Tester asked association members if they still planned to pursue the CBID. He said the group had not discussed the district in a few months and it wasn't clear if it was something they were still interested in.
"Has this fizzled out or do you want to go forward with the petition to City Council to show you support the CBID and want it to happen?" Tester asked.

Former NFL linebacker Scott Fujita tackled a tough and more frequently posed question in Wednesday's New York Times - Would I Let My Son Play Football?
His answer is worthy of attention:
Certainly there are lessons to be learned from playing football, about toughness, battling through adversity, and teamwork. But I don't think football is the only way to teach those. I have numerous friends who never played football but who have battled through failed bar exams, medical residencies and struggling businesses, and who are just as successful as I am. In truth, they are probably a lot more well adjusted, well balanced and better positioned to navigate life's speed bumps than I'll ever be. Maybe they never had to push through pain and mask injuries the way I have, but is that really a virtue?

Painters >Detail Painting
4410 E Saint Louis Ave, Las Vegas, NV | Directions 8910436.149251 -115.078380
By appointment
Neighborhoods: Sunrise Manor
Cathy and the workers were professional and efficient. We had our living room and trim done in one day. It looks wonderful and was so easy. We had lots of doors and trim, and it all looks perfect. Very helpful with colors and scheduling.
We just moved to Centennial Springs and purchased a house. I did a lot of research before picking my painter and met with several professional painters. I met Ted and new immediately I would be going with Detail Painting. He was very nice and professional and knew what he was talking about. I loved that they didn't charge until the job was finished and you were 100% satisfied.
About a month or so later we finally closed on our house and we called Ted up. Cathy (his sweet wife) came out to look at the house and my color choices. She said she could start immediately. It took only a 1 1/2 days for them to paint my 1,800 sqft house. After they finished and and we looked around, I was in complete awe of how beautiful it was.They even fixed stuff the previous painter messed up!! I was close to tears and felt they helped make my house a home. I will be calling them again soon to paint my shutters (after HOA permission). I am a customer for life!!!!! Thank you so much Cathy, Ted, Martine, Juan. You guys are the best!!!!
I highly recommend using Detail Painting. They are absolutely amazing!
These guys are awesome-sauce!. Ted Johnson and his Detail Painting company did a fantastic job painting the exterior of my house. They gave it a fantastic two tone makeover; the body one color and the trim a different darker color. Not only did they do a phenomenal job on they paint itself, but they also went the extra mile and patched up all the small dings and holes in the exterior walls and removed some cords that the previous owner had left attached outside. Ted even mixed up a semi-gloss version of the trim color for the front and garage doors so that they would have a nice contrast to the eggshell finish of the trim. Detail Painting really does pay attention the the details! =)
I would highly recommend Detail Painting to anyone looking to get some paint work done on their property!
Wonderful Work! – Detail Painting is the best painting company in Las Vegas. Wonderful service,personable, and professional. Love Cathy's work, she's a very talented lady!
Best Painter in the Business – Had them paint my houses twice, got a great deal and a beautiful job. Suggest you push Cathy to do her best and you'll see something you'll end up loving. She's got the gift.
Very impressed with Detail Painting – Cathy and her crew did a great job. Gave an estimate over the phone then visited the property to confirm and provide a free written proposal. Helped me with color selection. Arrived on time. Painted entire intererior and garage. Two accent walls turned out great. Good clean up and no mess. I have already recommeded a friend to contact Cathy at Detail Painting. Very congenial and professional.
Great paint job, Detail painting! – Great company to do business with. I highly reccomend them. They completely transformed the look of my home. They showed up when they said they would. They were very professional. They helped with my color selection (ask for Cathy).

Last Updated: 11/14/2012*
The Human Rights Campaign has named Raytheon to its "Best Places to Work" list for the company's inclusion of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender employees.
The Washington-based civil rights group also gave Raytheon a 100 percent rating on its Corporate Equality Index for the eighth straight year.
"Leveraging diversity of talent and thought is paramount to Raytheon's inclusive culture, which we consider to be a competitive advantage," Raytheon's Chief Diversity Officer Hayward Bell said.
The Corporate Equality Index ranks companies on their domestic partner benefits, policies against discrimination, diversity training, recruiting efforts and other issues affecting lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender workers.
Raytheon was among the first aerospace and defense companies to adopt a domestic partner benefits policy in January 2002. In 2005 it became the first firm in its industry to receive a perfect score on the index.
Overall, the number of companies receiving a 100 percent score has risen from 13 in 2001 to 252 this year, the Human Rights Campaign said.
"Businesses have laid a foundation of workplace equality the likes of which no previous generation of employees and job-seekers has ever seen," the group's president, Chad Griffin, wrote in the report.
Raytheon is one of the nation's largest defense companies, with 71,000 employees and sales of $25 billion in 2011. The company celebrated its 90th anniversary this year.
"This eighth consecutive 100 percent rating of Raytheon by the HRC is a reflection of our core values to treat all people with respect and dignity, and to welcome diversity and diverse opinions from all our employees," Bell said.

We realize that students undergo many transitions to become part of a nurse anesthesia program and to move into this career. To help smooth the transition to becoming an anesthesia student, we provide a number of resources to prospective students.
H3A: Tri-Development in Nurse Anesthesia
H3A is a unique program to foster the success of nurses who aspire to be excellent anesthetists. Development is focused on the three critical "H's" of success: technical knowledge (head), self-awareness of one's personality, strengths and weaknesses (heart), and competence with manual skills (hands). There are three tracks of the H3A program, titled Gateway, Portal, and Segue. Each is for a different stage of the career trajectory, but all serve as your directional compass to success in anesthesia.
The Gateway track is designed for the ICU nurse who wants to learn more about anesthesia as an advanced practice nursing specialty, or for those who are already in the process of applying to a nurse anesthesia program. Gateway provides an introduction to the role of a CRNA, and useful practical tools for gaining admission in the highly competitive environment of anesthesia school applications. Participants learn advanced ICU skills that can either bolster their competence in their current role, or which can serve as the foundation for advanced nursing practice later.
Topics addressed in the two-day Gateway seminar include:
Read some comments from H3A Gateway participants: (This group had a mean ICU experience of over 3 years)
"I was accepted into a CRNA program, and the H3A course definately helped me. The dose calculations and BIS information that I learned about at H3A were both directly tested during my interview. I also had lots of confidence in my preparation because of the entire experience at the H3A conference."
"This is a great course that I will recommend to other prospective applicants. I learned about areas of weakness I need to improve and a better idea of how to prepare fo rthe CRNA journey."
"Got insight to what I need to do before applying to anesthesia school (wish I had known this earlier)."
"I visited from Mayo Clinic for the program. I had a wonderful experience at your program and would recommend it to all my colleagues. Your lectures and simulation experiences really helped me to develop goals and a plan for the future. I learned a great deal about nurse anesthesia as a profession and am so grateful! Thank you again!"
"Very informative. Enjoyed the "real life" students' feedback. Many useful hints and tips. Excellent source of clinical information."
"Enjoyed the pharmacology lecture and interview skills. Very helpful and informative. I can use in my ICU practice. The Sim lab was a great experience where I learned and experienced how to do an induction."
"I felt like I got an "inside scoop" on the anesthesia school."
"Loved it! Thanks you for preparing such a great 2 days full of information!"
"Very informative. Ths course wil greatly help someone to know if this is sthe right field for them and help in the interveiw proces."
"I enjoyed the hands-on simulation the most. I also really enjoyed the interactive quizzes during the lectures."
"I met my objective of learning more knowledge to take back to my ICU unit as well as a better understanding of what CRNAs do on a daily basis."
"The entire course was very informative. I enjoyed the review of the ICU information. The information on interviewing (the 'golden applicant') will be helpful when applying for school. The interaction with the current CRNA students was very informative and I felt gave me a real insight into the program."
The H3A program was made possible with the assistance of the Piedmont Triad Partnership through a WIRED grant from the U.S. Department of Labor.

RENO — The Safety Consultation and Training Section (SCATS) of Nevada's Division of Industrial Relations has recognized Tamarack Junction Casino & Restaurant for its successful completion of the Safety and Health Achievement Recognition Program (SHARP).
The no-cost SHARP program is helps employers develop and implement safety and health programs. SHARP helps businesses improve their return on investment, be in compliance with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulations and create added value by reducing accident costs.
This is the third time Tamarack Junction Casino & Restaurant has received its SHARP certification.
"We think SHARP is an outstanding program," General Manager Casey Sullivan said. "The Tamarack participates because we believe safety is not only for our guests but also our team members; it's our philosophy."
Sullivan said the SHARP program is a good way for businesses to get employees involved in workplace safety. He added that employees are the front line of safety and can see things managers might not, which is why SHARP is an important safety training tool.
"It benefits everyone," Sullivan said. "Our employees get a better understanding of safety and how everything affects the safety of the Tamarack and it makes it a better place to work. It cuts down on injuries, which goes with the Tamarack's philosophy of looking for things that are unsafe and fixing them before something happens."
The Tamarack Junction Casino & Restaurant opened in September 2001. Since then, it has expanded to three times the original size.
Businesses interested in the SHARP program can contact SCATS at 824-4630. For more information on SCATS, or for a schedule of training courses offered at no charge, call toll free 877-4SAFENV or visit www.4safenv.state.nv.us.

The Mobility Myth
When Americans express indifference about the problem of unequal incomes, it's usually because they see the United States as a land of boundless opportunity. Sure, you'll hear it said, our country has pretty big income disparities compared with Western Europe. And sure, those disparities have been widening in recent decades. But stark economic inequality is the price we pay for living in a dynamic economy with avenues to advancement that the class-bound Old World can only dream about.

Companies today face tough challenges in trying to maximize the value of their customer data to achieve next-generation business results. Marketing teams rely on data from digital marketing channels, while IT teams depend on machine data to understand their operations. Currently, these data sources are extracted and analyzed in completely separate silos, which prevents organizations from gaining a true unified view of their customers across digital touch points. However, with new technologies and best practices, organizations can now integrate these two key data sources to create unparalleled – and actionable – insights about their customers.
Join Tealium, Splunk and InsideView for an insightful panel discussion moderated by Frost & Sullivan to learn about these new trends and best practices for solving the 'big data' challenge and gaining a holistic view of customer behavior.

Making the resiliency of your current IT infrastructure count towards your cost
Chris Coulson (Phoenix)
Mar 21 2014
28 mins
The growth of Cloud services presents a perfect opportunity for organisations of all sizes to meet the continuing demand to resume operations quicker and more efficiently when a disaster scenario occurs. Many organisations have improved their resiliency through new ways of delivering IT Services such as virtualisation, but their backup and recovery for the purpose of DR has, in almost all cases, stood still.
As we move more and more to Cloud-based services and evaluate these against current DR methodology, it begins to highlight the gaps that exist between business expectation and what IT can actually deliver. These gaps in time will cost the business in terms of lost revenues and reputation, and whilst it is difficult to count the cost of your reputation being tarnished, counting the cost of lost revenues is much easier to measure.
Cloud services can be cost-effectively utilised to leverage existing IT investments to meet business continuity objectives, such as achieving quicker business resumption. But what is the cost of not implementing 'DRaaS' and failing to match your BC strategy with your current IT infrastructure?

Horizon Scan 2014
Andrew Scott (The Business Continuity Institute) & Lorna Anderson (BSI)

The BCI's annual Horizon Scan report, in partnership with BSI, was published in March and revealed that it is the IT-related threats that are continuing to provide the greatest concern for organizations, ranking above other threats such as natural disasters, security incidents and industrial disputes. Three quarters (77%) of business leaders fear the possibility of an unplanned IT and telecoms outage and 73% worry about the possibility of a cyber-attack or data breach. The report also identifies long-term trends, with 73% seeing the use of the internet for malicious attacks as a major threat that needs to be closely monitored, with 63% feeling the same way about the influence of social media. In this webinar, the report's author - Andrew Scott - will discuss the findings in greater depth along with BSI's Lorna Anderson.

Mega-trends: what is the cost if we continue to ignore them?
Jack Armstrong (PwC), with contributions from Charley Newnham, James Crask & Paul Robertson
Mar 20 2014
61 mins
Mega-trends will not affect your organisation in the same way as a disaster, but they can have a far greater long term strategic impact. Some of these mega-trends will not come to fruition until 2050, and so it's easy to understand why many organisations choose to ignore them in favour of more immediate operational business issues. We at PwC believe that by continuing to ignore them, you leave your organisation exposed to strategic issues and that there are practical solutions that you can implement now to make your organisation more resilient.

The house with no foundations
Richard Trotman & James Cooke (both at PwC)
Mar 20 2014
54 mins
Are we missing some of the basic building blocks as we aim to deliver a truly resilient technology landscape?
IT has evolved significantly over the last thirty years. An organisations services in the 70's were often hosted on single pieces of infrastructure with limited connections to other systems. This configuration made disaster recovery and resilience relatively simple. Today, even a moderately sized organisation has services with many connections, both internal and external, and hosts across multiple platforms.
To be able to build effective resilience or recovery capability an end to end approach has to be taken, which is often contrary to structure of the technology organisation. This in turn puts the availability of services at risk. Failure to respond to this challenge means that organisations are leaving themselves open to significant costs and eroding client relations.
We aim to discuss this topic at length and will educate our viewers while hopefully leaving them with some practical pointers towards future strategy development.

The management of information related risks
Alan Elwood, Risk and Resilience Ltd
May 27 2014
9:00 am
60 mins
Information is both a risk and a critical resource when it comes to thinking about Business Continuity Management. A number of high profile data breaches have taken place recently that have hit the world's media. They have occurred in many regions of the world and impacted millions of people. They involved public and private sector organisations and they resulted from accidents and losses as well as cyber attacks and security breaches. Less publicised and more numerous events seem to take place with regularity. They can involve information sources as diverse as hard copy files, electronic files, old hard discs, emails, text messages, x-rays, filing cabinets full of material and even the drives in photocopiers. In Europe organisations can be fined for such breaches and their names published on official websites, adding an additional cost of reputational damage to the pain felt. Also without accurate and up to date information it is nearly impossible to recover systems and processes quickly enough, something organisation and their customers have experienced in the recent past. Ask anyone in the UK and Ireland who couldn't access their bank account a year or so ago how that impacted them and you will get an indication of the issue. These and other concerns surrounding the management of information related risks, including mitigation, and the use of information in recovery planning will be discussed at this webinar.

Winchester MP takes hardline stance on prisoners' rights
2:00pm Friday 27th December 2013 in Winchester
WINCHESTER and Chandler's Ford MP Steve Brine is in the middle of a highly charged debate around prisoners' rights.
Mr Brine, who sits on a committee charged with scrutinising the Government's draft bill on prisoners' voting rights, has taken a hard line stance.
They published their report on Wednesday (December 18) and it will inform Parliament when it considers the issue next year.
Most members recommended that prisoners serving custodial sentences of 12 months or less, plus all prisoners in the last six months before release, should be able to vote in local, general and European elections.
But Mr Brine recommended putting two options to Parliament: the status quo, whereby prisoners serving custodial sentences cannot vote, and the option of allowing prisoners serving custodial sentences of less than 12 months, and those in the last 6 months before release, to vote.
Mr Brine said: "Whether Parliament accepts the majority or minority recommendations of this committee, it will need to consider whether it is right to extend the franchise to those denied their liberty and the right to engage in society as a result of serving a custodial sentence. Personally, I think we should uphold the current ban and have every right to do so as a piece of domestic policy.
"Parliament will also need to consider the extent to which it is content to permit the European Court of Human Rights to encroach into domestic policy areas that appear far removed from the original intentions of the drafters of the European Convention on Human Rights."

Rehabilitation should take place during a period after the original sentence has been served, and I do not believe sentences should he halved for good behaviour.
Going soft on criminals does not work, as has been proven by the number of reoffenders.
A punishment must be exactly that - a punishment.

RNRDOCTOR says...
Most 'prisoners' are innocent of their 'crimes', and most of the rest do not agree with the 'law' they have 'broken' and have never agreed to being bound by them.
The concept of 'crime' is purely fictional and is based on the idea of forcing religious ideals onto other people who are not interested, for the benefit of those whose wealth is already established.
If they are not going to treat their 'prisoners' properly then they should not be allowed to abduct them in the first place!

World-Herald staff writer Lee Barfknecht ranks the Big Ten conference football teams as published in The World-Herald on Oct. 21.
* * *
1. Ohio State (7-0, 3-0)
Last week: beat Iowa 34-24. This week: Penn State. 7 p.m., ABC. The standard is sky-high in Buckeye land. So even when OSU is undefeated, fans and media dissect why wins weren't easier and by bigger margins.
2. Wisconsin (5-2, 3-1)
Last week: beat Illinois 56-32. This week: Idle. How important is linebacker Chris Borland to the Badgers? UW led Illinois 21-0 before Borland left with a hamstring injury. The score after that was 35-32.
3. Michigan State (6-1, 3-0)
Last week: beat Purdue 14-0. This week: at Illinois, 2:30 p.m., ABC. In this league, any win is a good win, even when you have to hold your nose and score on defense and with a trick play to beat Purdue at home.
4. Nebraska (5-1, 2-0)
Last week: Idle. This week: at Minnesota, 11 a.m., ESPN. The Huskers should have had their eyes opened watching Minnesota win at Northwestern. Don't get lulled to sleep. Just take care of business and get to 3-0 entering November.
5. Michigan (6-1, 2-1)
Last week: beat Indiana 63-47. This week: Idle. College football may have never seen a 6-1 team with so many question marks. Wild shootouts isn't the identity Brady Hoke wants, but that's what he'll have to live with for now.
6. Penn State (4-2, 1-1)
Last week: Idle. This week: at Ohio State, 7 p.m., ABC. Dear Big Ten office: This is why you schedule night games. This is an excellent matchup of name brands that fans around the country will pay attention to.
7. Iowa (4-3, 1-2)
Last week: lost to Ohio State 34-24. This week: Northwestern, 11 a.m., BTN. The Hawkeyes are much improved. They are still missing an electric playmaker in the backfield and the secondary, but things are looking up.
8. Minnesota (5-2, 1-2)
Last week: beat Northwestern 20-17. This week: Nebraska, 11 a.m., ESPN. An emotional win at Northwestern, with coach Jerry Kill in the press box, smooths the path toward six wins and bowl eligibility.
9. Indiana (3-4, 1-2)
Last week: lost to Michigan 63-47. This week: Idle. Here are the point totals the Hoosiers have allowed in their past six conference games the past two seasons: 62, 45, 56, 24, 42, 63. That's the definition of a disturbing trend.
10. Northwestern (4-3, 0-3)
Last week: lost to Minnesota 20-17. This week: at Iowa, 11 a.m., BTN. The Wildcats are in total free-fall. Injuries to RB Venric Mark and QB Kain Colter haven't helped. But we've gone from title talk to worries about making a bowl.
11. Illinois (3-3, 0-2)
Last week: lost to Wisconsin 56-32. This week: Michigan State, 2:30 p.m., ABC. The Illini's Big Ten losing streak has grown to 16 games in three seasons. Don't look for any better news this week with Michigan State coming to town.
12. Purdue (1-6, 0-3)
Last week: lost to Michigan State 14-0. This week: Idle. Nobody buys the old moral victory tale. But Purdue went on the road after a miserable home showing vs. Nebraska and scared the Spartans to the end. That's a plus.

Allocation of Essential Use Allowances for Calendar Year 2006
- In accordance with the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer and the Clean Air Act, EPA is allocating essential use allowances to permit U.S. companies to obtain limited quantities of certain ozone-depleting substances (ODS) that have been phased out of production.
- This final action proposes an allocation of essential use allowances for chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) to U.S. pharmaceutical companies for the manufacture of metered dose inhalers for the treatment of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
- The allocations are based on the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) determination that 1002.4 metric tons of CFCs are necessary for use in metered dose inhalers for the year 2006.
- Essential use allowances enable a person to obtain a controlled class I ODS as part of an exemption to the regulatory ban on the production and import of these chemicals, which became effective on January 1, 1996 .
- Under the Montreal Protocol, exemptions may be granted for uses that are determined by the Parties to be "essential." Decision IV/25, taken by the Parties to the Protocol in 1992, established criteria for determining whether a specific use should be approved as essential, and set forth the international process for making determinations of essentiality.
- EPA allocates essential use allowances for exempted production or import of a specific quantity of a class I ODS solely for the designated essential purpose.
For Further Information
- Additional information on the phaseout of ozone-depleting substances can be found at http://www.epa.gov/ozone/title6/phaseout/index.html

Mold Testing & Mold Inspection
The first step our technicians perform when they arrive on site is mold testing and mold inspection. Our aim is to figure out what type of mold it is, so it can be treated effectively. One step that differentiates us from our competitors is that we test if the mold is air born. If the quality of air is good, then the property doesn't have to be evacuated. Please note that air born mold can cause serious problems to the lungs and respiratory system. Next, using special testing equipment and cameras that can show us what is inside hard to reach places like ceilings and wall crevices, we visually try to locate and classify the mold. The results are written in a report, that grades the type and extent of mold dispersal. After all the specifics are known, then our highly trained technicians get to work removing the mold and restoring your house or office.
Black Mold Removal
There are numerous variations of mold all around us. Some are toxic and some are not. The indicators of black mold are often large black spots on walls or other surfaces. Black mold also releases a very strong bad smell. The extent to which black mold grows is usually related to the amount of moisture in the air in the room it is located. The most serious of all mold types is black mold. Black mold, if not noticed and dealt with quickly can cause great health problems that in some occasions cause loss of life. Black mold can induce severe lung problems, cause painful breathing and bronchial asthma. Other physical symptoms to black mold exposure can be allergic skin reactions when it is touched and irritable eyes. Due to the serious nature of black mold, it is best to get professionals like GTA restoration to eliminate it from your property and clean up any trace of it.
Wet Basement Restoration
Another service GTA remediation provides is wet basement and flooded basement restoration services. We use industrial pumps to get water out of your basement in the quickest way possible and then we restore any damage caused by the water such as rotten wood restoration and carpet cleaning, drying and remediation services. We also use dehumidifiers to extract the moisture from the air to ensure mold does not grow.

Sure, Edward Snowden's non-flight to Cuba, whereabouts in Russia, and request for asylum in Ecuador are getting most of the attention this week. But amid all the hubbub, Monday's news also brought us this small but intriguing detail from a New York Times story on how Snowden planned his exit from Hong Kong over a "cloak-and-dagger" pizza dinner.
"Mr. Snowden," the paper noted, "wore a cap and sunglasses and insisted that the assembled lawyers hide their cellphones in the refrigerator of the home where he was staying, to block any eavesdropping."
The ol' cell phones-in-the-refrigerator trick is just one of many tradecraft-esque moves we know Snowden has attempted since going on the lam. He's lined the door of his hotel room with pillows, for example, and worn a hood while entering computer passwords. But how useful is putting cell phones in the fridge, really? Is wearing a hood while using your laptop stopping anyone from watching what you're doing? In other words: Does Edward Snowden know what he's doing when it comes to covert ops?
We reached out to FP contributor David Gomez, a former assistant special agent-in-charge and counterterrorism program manager with the FBI, to get his take. When was Snowden being savvy - and when did it seem as if he'd just watched a few too many spy movies?
Cell phones in the fridge
While it's true that cell phones can easily be compromised and turned into recording devices, Gomez says it's unlikely that anyone seeking to record Snowden would have used a phone anyway. If someone had wanted to eavesdrop, Gomez explains, he or she more likely would have worn a concealed wire. Or, if a government's agents had been trying to listen in from outside of the room, they might have deployed a long-range microphone, among other techniques. The bottom line: a refrigerated cell phone probably wasn't stopping anyone who wanted to listen badly enough - though it may have extended the phone's battery life.

Smartphones need kill switches. It's a relatively easy solution to the pricey (and irritating) problem of smartphone theft.

The cooperative spirit! It makes so much sense!
Why do wolves howl?
Of all the myths that dog the wolf, none is more widely accepted than the idea that wolves howl at the moon. Images of wolves with their heads upturned, singing at the night sky, are as unquestioned as a goldfish's three-second memory or a dog's color-blindness (both also myths).

Quick Bacon Potato Salad Recipe
4.7 32
My family was tired of the same old potato salad at family functions, so I created this with the ingredients I had on hand. Now I'm always asked to bring it to get-togethers. —Tami Gallagher, Eagan, Minnesota
- 4 cups cubed red potatoes
- 1 cup chopped onion
- 7 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
- 1-1/3 cups mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 3 tablespoons prepared ranch salad dressing
- 2 tablespoons prepared mustard
- 4 teaspoons white vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- Place potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 10-15 minutes or until tender. Drain.
- In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, onion, bacon and parsley. In a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Pour over potato mixture; toss to coat. Refrigerate for 1 hour or until chilled. Yield: 8 servings.

Great recipe. I added 2 hard boiled eggs, celery to give it a crunch, and I used half the amount of mayo (used miracle whip). Absolutely delicious though.
