U.S. failed with mission in Iraq
A simple analogy: The United States did to Iraq in 2003 what Hurricane Katrina did to the United States in 2005. In both cases, the Bush administration was slow and ineffective trying to repair the damage. The difference between the two situations was that there were state and local governments in the United States that took up the slack left by the Bush administration. There was no effective local or national government in Iraq to take up the slack there.
Saddam Hussein was a brutal dictator, but he maintained order in Iraq. He also supplied the Iraqi people with adequate food, fuel, water, electricity, education, health care and waste management (all sadly lacking now) before the United States invaded, even in the face of a U.S.-led embargo.
Saddam was respected and admired by many Iraqis and others throughout the Middle East for standing up to the United States. That is why we were not welcomed in Iraq as liberators. That fact was easy to ascertain, and we should have been told the truth about Saddam's popularity at home and his lack of WMDs before the invasion. His ties to al-Qaeda were false from the get-go because al-Qaeda is Sunni and clerical while Saddam's government was secular.
Once we invaded Iraq, we broke it and owned the results, according to the Pottery Barn-like doctrine enunciated by Colin Powell. We tried to put Iraq (Humpty Dumpty) back together again and failed. It is possible that no one could have put Iraq back together again. Maybe Saddam could have, but he was not given the chance. Iraq was not and is not ready for democracy and free market capitalism; Iraq may never be ready.
To understand Iraq as it exists now, I recommend two books. For the 30,000-foot view and the big picture of what went wrong, I recommend "My Year in Iraq," by Paul Bremer. For a ground-level view full of the dirty details, I recommend "We Meant Well," by Peter Van Buren.
The U.S. effort to restore Iraq was breathtakingly incompetent. We may or may not have succeeded militarily in Iraq, but we failed miserably in the rebuilding of a functioning society in Iraq.
Many U.S.-funded projects were irrelevant to the needs of Iraq. Projects were left unfinished, and Iraq refused to accept most of the projects that were completed. Iraq lacked the funds and the trained manpower to operate power plants, waste treatment facilities, water supplies and other facilities that the United States built. The United States had no master plan for Iraq and just threw money left and right and hoped that somehow all would turn out for the best. It did not work, and the United States wasted many billions of dollars and thousands of lives.

Enterprise Rental Car- Beware not all Stores Make the Grade
It has taken me several weeks to sit down and write this review simply because of my uncertainty of how to approach this. I have attempted to use Enterprise Car Rental more than once from time to time over the past few years, and have not been the happiest of customers. And although the effort was there this last time, I must still say that I am not impressed with the overall service or continuity of service that is received from one location to another. Here's why…
A few weeks ago at the most inopportune time possible my vehicle gave out forcing me to rent a car for three days. Besides the inconvenience and expense, this would have been no big deal. Except, the only rental agency near me is Enterprise and my past experience with this location was terrible, in accurate information, lousy customer service, you name it and it happened. But, I was in a crunch and gave them a second chance.
I went online and reserved a car using one of Enterprise's coupons for a free upgrade to have a car ready at noon at the location near me. As far as online goes, everything went through fine, that is until I called for their pick-up service when they informed me that they had no cars available and would not have any until at least 3:30 that afternoon, but they would call me if something came in earlier. This only added to my stress level since I had to be someplace at 4:30. So I told them as long as it would be no later than 3:30 I could do that.
In addition to not having the car that I was told I could have at noon when I reserved it online, I was told by this young man on the phone that they didn't know why the website allowed me to reserve the car, and that they had left me a voicemail. Not true. I had my phone on me the entire time and checked voicemail four times. There were no missed calls, and no voicemails. So they were already lying to cover their butts.
Due to their system's mistake and lack of follow-through I was left sitting here for three hours waiting for a car. Finally at 3:30 I called for the 4th time (having called every hour to make sure that they hadn't tried to call and could not reach me) and was finally told, yes we have your car and will be right there to get you. I live ten minutes from the location. ten minutes later I received a call from a very nice young lady who asked me to open my gate. Well, since I don't have a gate I was understandably confused. Turned out she was on the other side of town, because her store representative gave her the wrong zip code. Once we got the directions all figured out this sweet professional young lady arrived at my
house within ten more minutes and promptly drove me to pick up my rental car.
I arrived with all pertinent paperwork in hand and was immediately informed that I could not pay with my debit card while using my credit card as collateral, and they could not use two separate cards. I won't go into all of the crazy details here, but basically it came down to they needed two current utility statements that showed my home address in order to use my debit card (luckily I had them on hand from the last time I went through something similar with them) and they would end up putting an additional $100 on hold on my debit card, all because I did not have the full rental fee and deposit fee available on my credit card.
At this point my frustration broke my silence. I politely, but irritably informed the young man behind the counter of all of the issues including the reservation issue that I had had with them to date. I didn't expect much of a resolution from him after my past experiences with the 6th Ave location in Aurora, Colorado. However, he surprised me by apologizing, giving me what they call a double upgrade, a full tank of gas, and a 10% discount. (Although, I wondered if his sudden improved customer service had anything to do with my informing them that I was a travel writer who writes reviews.) Either way, he definitely had me smiling when I left. However short lived as it was.
I ended up buying my new car the next day so I did not need the rental for the full term. Since I am only one person, I could not drive both the rental car and my new vehicle home. Big surprise I chose to drive my new car home and leave the rental over night at CarMax. I checked to make sure this would be acceptable before doing so.
Then the next day, I called the Enterprise location that I rented the car from and was told I could drop the keys off at the location next to the dealership and they would pick up the car. So that is exactly what I did. When I did so the new location in Parker said they would call me after they had checked in the car so that I was aware of when the car was picked up. Guess what, no call.
That evening when I called the location that was supposed to pick up the car, they said that they had picked it up hours earlier and the location I rented it from was supposed to contact me to close everything out. The young man at the Parker, Colorado location apologized profusely and took it upon himself to close out my rental and process the credit of over $200 back into my checking account that the 6th Ave. location had ignored doing. In the long run I ended up only paying for one day of the rental that I had for almost 2 days, but had I not continually followed-up I would have never received my deposit or refund back.
Now that I have given you a glimpse into my experience with them you may be able to see why I am having such a difficult time assessing whether or not I am satisfied. Even their own staff said that each location is different in the type of service that you receive and that they had had a lot of issues with the 6th Ave. location.
In the pros column I received a quality car at a reduced rate with a full tank of gas, and they did both pick me up and then pick up the car from me. In the cons column I had to continually follow up with them every step of the way, I had a full day of down time waiting on them when their reservation system and follow through failed, and I almost did not get my deposit back due to lack of follow through on their part. So, I guess I will have to sum this up as certain employees put the effort forward to provide good customer service while others do not, making it important to feel out your different location options since each location will provide a different level of service.
In addition you may also want to keep in mind, that although they advertise they will pick you up anytime, anywhere. That is also not the case. Each location has a set range for which they pick up and drop off, so double check before you count on them to come get you.

The mention of your name brings me peace. Peace for my searching soul that is constantly thirsty. I look to the right or the left before I turn to You. My searching always ends at your feet. The deep need in my bones has always been You. You are the one thing that will satisfy. I am nothing. I am a nobody that cannot do anything of value without You. I am not enough. You take my insecurities, my shame, my disappointments, my inadequacies, my sin and take them on. You bear them and make them into my strengths. I am enough in You. You prove yourself to me time and time again. You are the proof of everything I am.
"Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light." Matt. 11:28-30

How Long Should Grout Set Up Before Walking on the Tile?
The amount of time you need to wait for grout to set up before you can walk on your newly laid floor tiles is dependent on a few factors, with the first being the type of grout you've chosen for your installation. Most grout manufacturers will list drying times on the side of their packaging. If there are mitigating factors, such as high humidity, you may have to increase, but never decrease, this amount of time.
Grout Drying Time
It is important to allow grout to entirely set up and dry before you walk on it to prevent moving tiles and causing the grout to be disturbed. If your grout manufacturer does not have a drying time listed on the side of its packaging, wait as long as you can, and at least 24 hours, before walking on the floor.
Environmental Factors
Humidity and temperature can affect the amount of time it takes your grout to set up. If the room you have tiled is very humid, this means there is a lot of evaporated moisture in the air. This moisture slows down the process of drying and hardening for your grout, and you'll need to allow extra time before you can safely walk on the tile. Reducing the indoor humidity by turning on an air conditioner and keeping the air moving across the floor with a small fan will help speed up the drying process.

Visitors to the open air Roman Theatre in St Albans will find socially-distanced seating, staggered arrival times and no interval to avoid queues for toilets when performances resume.
Outdoor performances of theatre, opera, dance and music will be able to resume from Saturday, provided social-distancing measures are in place.
However, singing and playing wind and brass instruments have been designated "higher risk" activities in the Government's new coronavirus guidance for the performing arts industry, and performances at indoor theatres are still not permitted.
The Roman Theatre of Verulamium will only seat 220, instead of the usual 275, when shows resume – and the audience will be further back from the stage than normal to avoid the potential spray from projecting performers.
Adam Nichols, artistic director of the Maltings Theatre – which will stage The Merry Wives Of Windsor and Henry V at the outdoor theatre next month, told the PA news agency: "The fortunate thing about that venue is there are different levels, almost like a conventional playhouse so will have what are like stalls down at the bottom, then a dress circle on some grass mounds and then an outer grass bank which will be almost like an upper circle."
All seating will be in pairs, with a metre gap surround each set and performers will sing side by side in compliance with Government guidance.
Nichols said: "The stage area will be quite large so we can actually get the actors reasonably distant from each other and the style of music we are using in the musical show (The Merry Wives Of Windsor) is a belt-it-out type of 80s rock songs, so from a theatrical point of view them standing on their own and performing will work within the setting.
"However, we are not going to have any brass and we are not going to have any woodwind."
He added: "We are gong to have loos for staff and cast and there are public toilets near to the venue, but we are not going to have intervals so we are trying to minimise that, partly because of cleaning but also because of queuing and the time that it would take to get people through the loos, so we are going go straight through, no interval.
"We are still discussing if we can do the bar safely. We are looking at what the open air cinemas are doing because obviously you don't want lots of people gathering at a bar to be served, so we are looking at the possibility of pre-ordering and serving people at their seats.
"We are going to give people timed arrival times but leaving is obviously the challenge because everybody's leaving at the same time, so we are going to manage that with our front of house team so that we let people go a row at a time effectively."
The Merry Wives Of Windsor and Henry V will run at the Roman Theatre in St Albans from August 14-31.

Instead that, there's a simpler speed penalty system: player gets cumulative speed penalties when jumping/strafing quick. Movement is way smoother overall. Lack of sprint is compensated with higher base speed for melee weapons.
- Few Dollars More (TDM): a combination of Fistful of Dollars and DM modes, players respawn randomly (more or less) and both teams must capture loot. Sacks amount needed to win game ranges around 4-10, depending the map's size. Usable in any DM map.
- Player manned gatling gun (only in coop maps at the moment)
- New Item: boiler plate: reduces damage in chest zone -40% (back too)
- Hit info: let you see which target was hit and how much damage you inflicted (can be disabled server side: fof_sv_disable_hitinfo)
- Switched to CS:S like ladders
- 'votemode' chat command, let you nominate any available game mode on current map
- team scrambling auto poll: once a team gets a considerable score advantage, players are asked to scramble teams for better team balance.
- New translations: German by Morricone and French by Yester
- accuracy prediction reworked, 'ghost hits' issue improved (it's ultimately dependent on engine and network issues though)
- tracers and other FX's out of synch when attacking other players (gets worse with lag)
- Player hard collisions added to DM
- Carrying phys items doesn't push you anymore. It may lag a bit but that's normal.
- Fixed idle player incorrectly moved to spectator
- Fixed dynamite ammo not being reset after respawn
- Fixed bug in Boss mode that prevented a team from spawning
- crosshair/ironsights get bugged when switching fast

- Hats don't cost notoriety anymore
- Health regeneration (represented by a beard) increases health up to 110 now
- equipment panel: items can be deselected without messing the list order
- blood impact effects: their size is relative to damage now, there's a special effect for headshot kills
- Scope added to Sharps
- Weapon speed: knife, axe and fists increased to top speed. Most weapons make you move a tad faster now.

Remember the heady heydays of the Hong Kong rom-com in which a series of zany, often entirely random adventures eventually led to true love? Director Fung Chih-chiang evidently does judging by the innocent charms of Concerto of the Bully (大樂師.為愛配樂) – a beautifully pitched soulmates thrown together romance with a kidnapping at its centre. For many things to work, they need to be in sync, as an unexpected utterance from the vacuous pop star boyfriend of the female lead points out, but sometimes you have to turn the volume down in order to hear the harmony.
Yung (Ronald Cheng Chung-kei) is a petty thug with a difference. Unable to cope with the noisiness of modern life which often pushes him into fits of erratic violence when overwhelmed, he lives out on a remote fishing raft and carries around with him a soothing track he discovered on the internet by an artist known as "Hit Girl". His life becomes a lot more complicated when he returns home one evening to find a mysterious sack lying in the middle of the floor with a note reading "please feed" right above it. Yung's no good gangster friend has kidnapped a young woman, Jamie (Cherry Ngan Cheuk-ling), after recognising her as the girlfriend of a famous pop star from whom he hopes to arrange a ransom. Yung is not very keen on this plan for several reasons but finds himself going along with it. Meanwhile Jamie, who is secretly "Hit Girl", attempts to plan her escape by ingratiating herself with the guys while thinking about her unfinished composition to keep her mind off the potential danger of her predicament.
The central irony is that Jamie is a girl who loves noise – all the sounds of the world, natural and manmade, are music to her ears and part of the great song of the universe. Yung, however, prefers things quiet save for Hit Girl's calming song. Forced to babysit Jamie, Yung begins to fall under her spell which is partly weaved solely to lower his guard so that she can escape, but soon enough both begin to get a glimpse of what it is that might be missing in each of their lives.
All the standard romantic comedy tropes are out in force – the boyfriend is a no good heel who isn't keen on paying the ransom and already has someone else, while Yung is a noble and good man who has been brought low by his no good buddies who have once again gotten him into a lot of trouble. Yung's inability to process sound turns out to be a life limiting condition which has forced him into a career of violence but Jamie's musical philosophy eventually allows him to see "another world" – literally, as he re-imagines a crowd of street thugs performing an epic dance routine to Mozart's Seranade No. 13 in G Major. Unmasked as "Little Fairy", Hit Girl's only fan, the shy and under confident Yung gets a new lease on life thanks to Jamie's less than patient tutelage as she tries to convince him to help her complete her masterwork in time for the big concert finale.
Like her boyfriend said, sometimes it's no good if it's not in sync. Many things in the relationship of Yung and Jamie are fake – Jamie has been kidnapped and is taking care to be "nice" and "useful" to her captors, while the pair begin with playacting music through a series of homemade mock up instruments until the arrival of a beaten up tinny piano which might be just the sound Jamie has been looking for. Gradually, the melody begins to come together, working towards a graceful harmony even while the distant drums of trouble in the city continue to threaten their quietly growing romance just as it begins to hit a more authentic key. A strangely sweet love story with a kernel of darkness at its centre, Concerto of the Bully is a hopelessly innocent fairy tale about an unwitting musical genius who never learned to hear his own voice, and a melancholy songstress who finally finds the key to her musical dreams in an unexpected place, as they meet on a floating musical stage which is both silent and somehow alive with all the quiet joys of a melodious life.
Concerto of the Bully is screening in Chicago as part of the seventh season of Asian Pop-up Cinema on 2nd October, 7pm, at AMC River East 21 where Director Fung Chih-chiang and Art Director Chet Chan will be present for an intro and Q&A. Tickets on sale now!

Krist Novoselic (he was the bassist for some band called Nirvana) has some interesting suggestions for election reform. I must say, I agree 100%. The election system is broken and it is sad when myself, a political junkie, lost faith in a system that elected a total joke as our President twice now and the only man the other party sent against Bush is just a mirror image of him anyways…with "liberal" leanings.
My political beliefs are always right down the middle…which explains why the candidates I support (McCain, Clark…) never seem to be given a chance in the general election.

Also Known asOatmeal, quick cooking rolled oats, quick rolled oats, rolled oatsDescription of oats, quick cooking rolled oats Oats, known scientifically as Avena sativa, is a hardy cereal grain capable of growing in poor soil conditions in which other crops are unable to thrive. Though harvested in the fall, oats is available throughout the year. Most popular as a breakfast cereal, oats may also be used in a variety of recipes including salads and desserts to add more nutrition to the dish. Oats owes its distinctive flavour to the roasting process that it undergoes after being harvested and cleaned. Although the grains are then hulled, the process does not strip away their bran and germ. This makes oats a great source of fibre and nutrients.

'Enormous' Chinese Olympic 10kg gold coin leaps to $575,000
'Enormous' Chinese Olympic 10kg gold coin leaps to $575,000
Heritage realised $8.2m in its New York sales - whose highlights also included an historic gold ingot
Rare gold led the way at Heritage's recent World & Ancient Coins Auction which realised over $8.2m on January 2-3 in New York. Over 93% of the lots in this auction sold, with post-auction buys continuing.
This was the first of their January numismatic events in New York and Florida, with overall proceeds expected to top last year's $53m total.
The star of this auction was a Chinese 10kg gold 100000 Yuan 2008. Only 29 examples of this enormous, 321-ounce, gold coin were minted, with this example the only one allocated to the US market.
Although this piece did not sell during the floor auction, an astute collector quickly snapped it up when it became available after the auction for $575,000.
Chinese Olympic gold coin
South American gold shone brightly once again in our auction. A quintet of Brazilian coins fetched prices in excess of $50,000, with top honours going to a Pedro Regent Prince 4400 Reis counter-stamped over a Portuguese 4 Cruzados, which realized $103,500.
Only two examples are known of this piece, and the other is housed in a museum and nowhere near as nice as this AU coin. Equalling the aforementioned at $103,500 was an 1813J 8 Escudos from Provincias de Rio de la Plata. This coin was Argentina's first independent gold issue, and is considered one of the greatest South American rarities.
Three Greek coins shared top honours among ancient coin offerings in this auction. An extremely rare silver Carthaginian Second Punic War issue shekel from the time of Hannibal (ca 221-201 BC), perhaps one of five or fewer in existence, sold for $46,000.
The possibility exists that this famous type was an early attempt at portraiture, which is remarkable considering that no other portraits of the great Carthaginian general survive from his lifetime. Selling for the same amount was a beautiful gold Mnaieion or Oktadrachm of Ptolemy VI-Ptolemy VIII.
NGC graded this coin Choice Mint State, with both strike and surface rated 5/5. This is the highest grade possible for any ancient coin from NGC. Finally, also selling for $46,000 was a silver tetradrachm of Gela, ca. 415-405 BC.
This remarkable die pairing, featuring unique types on both obverse and reverse, appears to be the work of a master die engraver and is highly prized. This makes it a strong investment.
Other highlights included: a Spanish Colonial gold Bar From the Nuestra Senora de Atocha which realised $80,500 (another example of gold valued by something other than its weight).

In our last post about Amazon and Amazon Web Services, we talked a lot about the moves they're making in the 'Internet of Things' (IoT) industry, from selling and making IoT devices, to developing a vast suite of services under AWS to support IoT solutions (EC2, Kinesis, Lambda, S3, Redshift, Elastic MapReduce, and more). Their most obvious IoT move is the acquisition of 2lemetry, the builders of ThingFabric – an incredibly flexible and scalable IoT platform. As a former employee of 2lemetry it's incredibly gratifying to see IoT moving beyond just being a bunch of ideas and concepts – it's a real thing. This acquisition nearly seals the deal in making AWS the obvious choice for many who are wanting to add an IoT layer because of their dominance in cloud computing. Obviously they have a fair share of competition (Microsoft, PTC) but they already have a big niche in the market. It also answers the oft-repeated question, "Will the Internet of Things develop into an actual industry"? Most definitely.
Our last post was mainly centered on what's happening already with Amazon's IoT involvement, that being home automation and connections. In this post, I'd like to suggest other possibilities the Seattle-based company might have for us in the near future.
With everything they've done for the home consumer, consider a few other implications out of the home. What about hands free IoT in the field? There could be a new market in this arena if Echo or Alexa's voice technology could be leveraged in places where wearables like Google Glass failed (on sale at amazon.com for a low price of $800!). You may have seen the Iron Man movies. Think of Jarvis, the digital and voice activated assistant of Tony Stark who helps him build the Iron Man suit. That could soon be a real thing.
Consider technicians working in the field on a generator for an oil pump. Instead of manually checking on the operations of another generator a few miles away she can simply ask a field-version of Echo, and Alexa can respond. The potential here is huge. Make a verbal request, receive a digital response. Medical surgeries, air traffic control, and fleet management could all use Echo technology respectively. Or what about first responders? It's already in the works: firefighters are looking at IoT technology to improve their effectiveness. They'll be able to use sensors in the midst of a fire to assist in situational awareness and personnel location – who's in the building and where? What's temperature on floor 2 versus floor 3? They'll be able to collect data before the incident to be more effective, enhance interoperability between data systems (i.e. building, weather, street, etc.) and they'll be developing intelligent systems to assist with decision-making. For police officers, using an interactive microphone on their uniform instead of talking to dispatch, they'll be able to ask questions and get answers, make voice commands with an immediate response. They'll be able to to verbally communicate with the world around them.
Hands free, voice activated technology like this will enable quick action and response. Marvel comics, meet the real world.
And think of the possibilities if Amazon starts working with the manufacturers who's products they sell. A customer buys a used digital camera through Amazon, but the the usage stats are recorded via AWS throughout the life of the camera. How many times has it broke, how clean is it, how many times was it dropped. This could be even more useful for buying used vehicles. No more CarFax reports! A shopper will know exactly what their buying so they know they're not getting a lemon. And because most products are shipped through mail, FedEx, etc., customers will know how their new purchase faired during the shipping process. All of this will open new possibilities for warranties, replacements, and product guarantees.
Just like the iPhone opened up new possibilities that just a few years ago were thought impossible, IoT – in combination with technologies like Echo – will do the same thing. It sounds a bit far-fetched right now, but I'd wager a lot that AWS is just beginning. We all love the convenience of Amazon's e-commerce and consumers are excited for a future with Echo, but start combining all of that with AWS and all their (sure-to-be-coming) initiatives and impossible will soon be normal.

Say I have a 3 sheet drawing with 4 views on each sheet and a BOM on each sheet. I know that I can go into the view properties and set the view to be related to a particular BOM. I know that when a BOM of a configuration is created the Quantity can reference which configuration in the header.
To date I have not been able to determine which view the BOM was created from. We typically set our BOMs to not show which configuration it came from, or if the config is referenced we go into the header and delete the information. If nothing else the BOM is 6 to 10 spaces narrower. However if I now open a 10 year old drawing and start working on it there may be times that I need to know which of the 4 views it came from and I have no idea how to do that.
Can someone help me?

So I guess I do guided tours & trips now. Last Saturday was my first time taking non-friends out on an official tour. I've wrestled with the idea in the past, and decided to push it aside for the longest time. Finally went out and did my first official one this past weekend (non-friend group). Jonas contacted me asking if I could take him & his family out poke poling.
Gave it some thought, liked that he was bringing his kids out, and decided I'd give it a shot. It went pretty smoothly considering there were a total of 7 people, 5 of which were kids. So I guess that passed my test, and I'm open to taking more groups out there, though I need to hash out some details first (group size, gear rental if necessary, etc). For those of you interested, please head over to the jetty tours page where you can find all the details (once I'm done building it out). Do note that what I teach is a variation on the traditional poke poling. I use a normal rod/reel set up (20lb+ mono) which allows me more flexibility.
Anyhow! Here's some pics from the trip:

I'm a fan of an underrated comedy, and one that I'll stop and watch almost any time it's on cable is "This is 40."
Part of why the movie works is because its two co-stars, Leslie Mann and Paul Rudd, are seemingly "ordinary" folks.
Each of them seem like the next-door type, both in this movie and in others.
But the approachable, affable characters these two always seem to play overshadows what's really going on: Mann and Rudd are hilarious and incredibly talented comedic actors with depth and range.
The fact that they often play the average Joe/Jane, "ordinary" character makes us forget the fact that they're, in fact, extraordinary.
The same goes for the corporate world.
You know the folks you say hello to every day in the office hallway, see regularly at conferences or correspond with over email?
While the interaction itself and some of the day-to-day grind of work may seem "ordinary," what many of them (and YOU!) are doing is, in fact, extraordinary.
And unlike Mann's and Rudd's characters in "This is 40," many of these folks are actually 39 or younger.
Which brings us to an upcoming edition of Auto Remarketing: our third annual "Remarketing & Used-Car Industry's 40 Under 40."
This is a chance for us to spotlight the many young professionals under the age of 40 who are taking leadership roles in the auto industry and impacting the remarketing and used-car business.
In a special section of the Sept. 1 issue of AR, we will be bringing you their stories and the paths to success they forged at such young ages.
This issue will showcase the current- and next-generation leaders of the business who are making big differences in the industry and at their companies.
So take a minute and brainstorm: who are the extraordinary young people you see in the office, at conferences and working their craft in the used-car business?
Once you've done that, go to the website below and nominate them for this honor:
The deadline to submit nominations is July 28, so don't delay too long.
And as a side note, I know that in an industry full of them, this may seem like just another award.
But consider some of the reaction we received when we notified the honorees in our inaugural edition two years ago.
That day, I pressed "send" on the email to our recipients.
It wasn't even five minutes later that I got the first response back. Then another. And another, and another. It went on like that for a while.
As a magazine editor, this was awesome; folks in my line of work love quick responses. But that wasn't the best part.
See, it wasn't that people responded, it was how they responded to earning 40 Under 40 recognition.
Just a few examples:
- "Wow! Thank you!"
- "This is quite an honor, and I'll be honest, I'm shocked."
- " … wow this is amazing, thank you!"
- "Thank you for such great news!
It was touching to know that this award is meaningful and impactful to some of the very people who are making a significant impact in the industry.
Their reactions made an ordinary task extraordinarily humbling.

Zachary Quinto and the team at PETSAMI, a pet and animal entertainment network that advocates embracing your inner animal instincts, have released a cute animal adoption film on YouTube.
The film stars the Star Trek actor alongside Philip Baker Hall, and Sharon Wilkins and the short it titled Dog Eat Dog.
According to PETSAMI:
"Dog Eat Dog" is a short film based on the true story of how actor/producer Zachary Quinto finally adopted his first dog in a Los Angeles Animal Shelter. During the events of his hilarious trials in attempting to adopt a shelter animal, Sian Heder, the film's director was there by his side. Taking notes. Preparing a great dinner party story. And that story, told on countless occasions, eventually evolved into the script. "Dog Eat Dog" is a twisted, fun, morality tale about the lengths to which some of us will go in order to get what we want.
Yes the film is an exaggerated account of Zachary Quinto's own experience while adopting a dog but its also cute and worth a watch.
David Beebe, SVP and General Manager of Fishbowl's Digital Studio, says of the production:
"I am thrilled to be able to partner with Zachary and Before The Door Pictures to distribute Dog Eat Dog as it reflects the original and inspirational programming that our audiences love … Dog Eat Dog allows us to continue to provide great and relevant content for our audience, as well as more cross-promotion opportunities with Revision3. It also allows the film to reach new and engaging audiences and hopefully inspire others to adopt dogs that are looking for a loving and forever home."
Here is the full Dog Eat Dog video starring Zachary Quinto:

Connections are the fabric of the universe. Connections at every level form the very stuff of existence.
Human connections between parents and children, between lovers, friends, co-workers and even between strangers on the Internet serve to keep us all sane. It's no coincidence that the ultimate punishments involve the removal of connections, whether though ostracism, banishment or solitary confinement. At a very deep level, we need connection in order to remain fully human. When we want to improve our mental health, the counsellor's first advice is, "Get out and make some friends."
On the physical level, forces such as gravity and the strong and weak atomic forces connect the material objects in our universe. Without those connections the planets, stars and galaxies could not even exist.
On a more abstract level, the connections between ideas drive the growth of civilizations. Connections between states of being are required to make the slightest action possible. And since both ideas and states of being can represent or involve physical matter, in an indirect way they too involve the physical connections mentioned above.
At a deep philosophical level, every connection in the universe is at least faintly represented in every other connection, no matter how real or abstract each connection may seem to be. Given that understanding, it is but a short step to the idea that every element of the universe, whether physical (like atoms or galaxies), emergent (like civilizations or human institutions) or abstract (like scientific theories) is connected to every other element of the universe. The fact that those connections may not be obvious or measurable, or may seem unimportant to our present needs, does not vacate this fundamental truth.
Continuing down that chain of reasoning, the next stop is the realization that the universe itself should be thought of more as a set of connections than as a set of objects. Objects within the universe may change, but if the infinite lattice of connections is not broken, the universe itself remains intact.
As human beings, it is our privilege to become aware of, and consciously participate in, this infinite lattice of connections. In fact it is in the web of connections that all creativity is rooted. Every human action creates new connections or changes existing ones. As human beings we can choose to create connections that are harmonious and fulfilling to us. By creating or changing the connections that bind us to the universe, we participate in the dance through which all the elements of the universe co-create this existence. In that sense, we each share in the powers of God.
If we think of God as the infinite sea of connections that underlies our reality, then it's possible to see a single connection as the quantum unit of the sacred. Every time we consciously create or change this fabric of connections we have the opportunity to become aware of the infinity in which we participate, and through that to touch the awareness of God.

| 8.3°C Belfast
A seven-point plan showing why the London 2012 Games ran smoothly has been published.
The idea behind the Government-commissioned report - Making the Games - is that Whitehall needs to learn from its successes as well as its failures.
Given Britain's track record for failure on high-profile large-scale projects - such as the Millennium Dome, Wembley Stadium and the bid for the 2015 World Athletics Championships - many had reason to believe that London 2012 would be the same.
Sceptics immediately had to be won over as the starting point for London 2012 was the failed bids in the previous decade by Manchester and Birmingham to host the Games.
There was also the "unfeasibly low budget at the time for the bid which augured poorly for the finances of the Games", the Institute for Government report stated.
It took two years to settle a new public sector funding package of £9.3 billion compared with the £4.1 billion assumption at bid time, and the widely cited public figure of £2.3 billion.
The final costs have come in £300 million under the £9.3 billion. The "generous" £2.247 billion built in to the project was crucial in meeting the cost of unforeseen events.
Apart from building the venues and ensuring the transport system could cope with unprecedented numbers of passengers, there were also 70,000 volunteers to recruit and train.
Having British athletes winning medals also helped the event become a success.
Even without the high profile or the hard deadlines, there are 205 other major projects such as High Speed 2 which could benefit from the planning for London 2012, the report said.

Moises Alfaro played baseball, basketball and football growing up in Oak Cliff, and he always had a Frisbee with him to throw around before and after practice.
That was the early '70s, the dawn of wild popularity for flying discs. And in 1976, when he was 23, a friend told him about a Frisbee competition in Corpus Christi.
So they took a road trip thinking it would be fun to kick around the beach. Alfaro entered the contest and won, becoming the first Texas state Frisbee champion.
He won because of his ability in an event where athletes throw the disc as far as they can and then sprint to catch it (his winning throw was 82 yards). But he'd never before seen freestyle Frisbee, where athletes perform Harlem Globetrotters-style tricks — behind the back, under the legs, keep the disc spinning while you do a somersault.
After that, he went home and practiced freestyle Frisbee five or six hours a day.
By this time Alfaro already had a wife and children, but Frisbee maker Wham-O paid his way to attend the world Frisbee championship at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Calif., about a year after his win in Corpus.
He placed 19th out of about 100 athletes from around the world. After that, he returned to the world championships four more times, qualifying through points tournaments all over the country on his sponsor's dime; he became known as "the Texas Lone Star" because he was always the only competitor from our state. He appeared several times in Frisbee World magazine and in 1979, he organized the first Frisbee tournament in the Dallas area at Lake Ray Hubbard.
That same year, he won the second-annual Waterloo Disc Golf Classic in Austin, which is now in its 39th year. His photo ran on page one of the Austin American-Statesman: no shirt, short shorts, brown skin, straight black hair falling past the shoulders and soccer shoes. That was his pro Frisbee uniform.
Alfaro points to a photo of himself with his body contorted in a trick: "If I did that now, you'd have to call 911."
Now 63, he's like a godfather of freestyle Frisbee, which reached its peak in the '70s and early '80s but remains popular. In August, he'll travel to the World Freestyle Championship in New York City, where he gets to be a judge and participate in a showcase of "old-school" freestyle moves.
"We always wanted a Frisbee golf course in Dallas," he says.
Now there is one in Oak Cliff, the Roger W. Lytle Disc Golf Course at Founders Park, which opened this past winter. Since it opened, Alfaro says, he has played every day.
Alfaro now works part-time at Fed-Ex and his wife, Barbara, recently retired from a 40-year career at Kroger. They have five grandchildren and have lived in the same Oak Cliff house for 30 years.
"That little piece of plastic took me all over," Alfaro says. "It was fun."

There is no better time to restore the nutrients to your skin than the summer. Your skin will look much better when the nutrients are restored, and it will produce a beautiful, summer glow. Here are a few products you should use when you shower.
There are a number of reasons why you should consider using natural alternatives to prescription drugs. One of them is that drugs can cause a negative side effect to your child. You may be causing more damage to your child instead of helping them.
Animals can be very similar to humans sometimes, in respects to their emotions. Dogs can still suffer from stress and anxiety, just like humans do. They can have traumatizing experiences, just like humans.
Grief is a very overwhelming feeling, especially to those who are truly suffering. Sadly, sorrow and grief are part of humanity. The grief cycle has a few different stages. One of those stages is acceptance.
Allergies and asthma can be treated in natural and convenient ways. Natural methods, instead of drug methods, prevent harmful toxins and chemicals from entering your body. Drug related methods have negative side effects, which most natural methods do not.

HRFreight is a good mix of Eastern/Western attitude. We consider ourselves competitive pricewise and good on the service side. It's certainly difficult to define "good service" without trying it out, anyway what a company can expect from us is straight answers, fast response and good follow up.
Apart of the more than a decade experience in airfreight recently we are providing reliable ground service for OBC all over China.
Type of Services:
- Air Mode (China is a huge continent and its airports are all special in some ways. While Beijing is good for some kind of goods, Shanghai is good for others. In Hong Kong, Shenzhen and Guangzhou we shop for the best deals in the South. If it's Xiamen or Qingdao we can move goods from there directly or taking where it's most convenient. Our domestic transportation network allows us to make this happen, arranging on-carriages by truck or air. We are sure we can strike a deal for you.)
- Sea Mode (FCL, LCL, buyer's consols, Sea/Air, projects are all services we provide with much care. We found that our ability to propose solutions for Customs clearances have helped many of our customers and partners. In other words, we work as your logistics consultants. One rate, a definite schedule and you are set.)
- Paying your suppliers (You have a new supplier and you don't trust it much to pay the 100% in advance, or you have many suppliers to pay for small amounts and you don't want to share your hard-earned profit with banks: we can help you out. We receive your currency and pay in CNY (RMB). As a Chinese entity we are in a better position to protect your purchase and your suppliers will be happier to receive payment in their currency avoiding the hassle to go through all the bureaucracy with banks.)
- Reselling program (Many of our partners overseas heard the stories of many Chinese forwarders having 'very good friends in whatever airline or shipping line' to lure agents working with them. We do have friends too. We win their friendship showing them we walk the talk and keep our promises. With some airlines we are in the position of reselling special rates to agents in China who don't have direct access to the right deals.)

But during her days off, the Big Brother's Bit On The Side panelist barely ever wastes time with lingerie.
In a revealing interview, Lulu claims to be commando queen.
When asked if she's rather go without cosmetics or underwear she said: "Underwear. You need moisturiser to keep your skin hydrated and everyone sees your skin but no-one can tell if you don't have any underwear on."
She then teased readers by confessing: "I barely ever wear underwear."
Sexy Ms Zissman wasn't only sharing intimate secrets, she also settled the age old debate 'does size matter?'
The busty business woman told Attitude magazine: "Yeah. I think it is really. Obviously it depends what you do with it.
"I you've not got much to start with you're not going to be able to do much."
So it's bad news for guys who aren't packing much in the trouser department.
To read the full and frank interview buy the August edition of Attitude magazine, or visit their website here.

I don't own any repro wings, how were the originals? Were they just very brittle plastic? It's a shame that they break so easy and I imagined a more flexible plastic, like water/soda bottle flexibility almost.

A sex abuse charge stems from the act of forcefully attempting to have some form of sexual act on another without their consent. It can also occur from someone in a position of trust taking advantage of a minor or an adult who depends on them, such as a boss or caretaker. Frequently in today's society, we have minors being molested by those who should be trusted, such as priests, pastors, bus drivers, foster parents, and others. Not only can that person be held liable, but if the organization where the abuser worked was aware of the abuse and took no action, they could be held liable as well.
If you or a family member has suffered from sexual abuse, contact Bartley E. Herron from Herron Law, immediately to find out what your legal options are to protect your rights. Those responsible for the abuse must be held accountable, and with the caring assistance of our legal team, we will pursue those who committed the crime as well as those who should have been aware of the behavior and failed to take action to prevent it.
If you have been the victim of sex abuse from a spouse or partner, our legal team can also assist with obtaining a restraining order against that person to protect you from any further harm.
Looking for an attorney for a sex abuse case in Portland? At Herron Law, LLC we understand the emotional pain you or your loved one may be going through because of any sex abuse you may have suffered. Our legal team has the compassionate and dedicated attorneys you need to pursue justice on your behalf. With experience as a former social worker and a B.A. in Clinical Psychology, Attorney Bartley E. Herron knows how to deal with the difficulties you are facing.
When any type of sexual abuse, such as rape, sodomy, or sexual assault, has taken place, our firm will aggressively pursue those responsible to compensate you for any medical costs you may have endured, in addition to recovery for the pain and suffering you have gone through with this traumatic experience. Contact our Portland office today for caring and compassionate counsel and find out how we can help you.
