Chicken stew with potatoes and vegetables
CHICKEN AND VEGETABLE STEW I enjoy crockpot cooking; its easy once the ingredients are assembled, added to the pot, and hours later the flavors rise in intensity, creating a fused, rich stew especially pleasing on cold winter days. The stews' aroma adds warmth and a comfortable feel throughout my house. Although technically a stew because of its big chunks of fowl and potatoes, plus pieces of vegetables, this succulent chicken dish also belongs with soups, because of its abundant soupy texture . Whatever its label, its moniker stamps delicious! And the tomato paste, often familiar in pasta and Italian dishes, enhances the flavor, plus perks up the color to deep tawny.
3 lbs. boneless and skinless chicken thighs
1/4 cup vegetable oil
salt and pepper
1 large onion, chopped
1 cup celery, chopped
1/3 head cabbage, chopped
4 carrots, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 Tbsp. tomato paste
1/2 tsp. thyme
4 1/2 cups chicken broth, divided
1/3 cup flour
4 medium red potatoes, cut in 1/2 inch pieces
2 bay leaves
4 scallion, chopped
In a large frying pan, heat the oil to medium high. Pat the chicken dry, sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add the chicken to the frying pan and brown on both sides, 7-10 minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate. Add the celery, carrots, cabbage and onion, plus a bit more oil if needed. Sauté on medium for 7-10 minutes until the vegetables are soft and slightly golden. Add the garlic and cook for two minutes. Add the tomato paste, plus 1/2 cup of the chicken broth. Add the flour, and stir in. Fold a few times until all the vegetables are moist, the tomato paste adheres to them and some of the liquid has evaporated. let the vegetables cool 5-10 minutes. In the crockpot add the chicken thighs, meaty side up. Add a layer of potatoes. Atop the potatoes, add the cut up scallions. Lay out a large piece of aluminum foil.
Along one edge, but toward the middle of the foil, lay out a thick layer of the vegetable mixture, using it all. Fold the foil over the vegetables, first one end and then the other. Fold in the sides too, securely crimping each end tightly. lay this big pocket on top of the scallions, tucking in each end so it fits well in the pot. Push down gently on the top. Cover, and cook 4-5 hours on low. At the 3rd or near the 4th hour, check to see if the soup needs more water. Add 1/2 to 1 cup water or chicken stock. Then too, peel back the foil, toss it out, and spread the vegetables around the pot. Cover again, and cook until the potatoes are tender, and chicken is cooked through.
Once cooking is complete, remove the whole chicken pieces, and shred into bit size pieces of meat and return to the pot. Reheat if necessary
Mouth-Watering, Soft and Nutella-Stuffed, Chocolate Chip Cookies
I confess, I'm a chocolate lover, especially when it's tucked, hidden, mixed in cookies and cakes, but naturally too, when chocolate boldly stands out, slathered atop any sweet food. When nutella gets added as an ingredient, as well as peanut butter, then the recipe truly reaches a high note. These flavors intermingle creating a cookie in a class by itself, unparalleled, much better than the old-fashioned peanut butter variety, or even the moist, melt in your mouth familiar chocolate chip, swimming in chunks of chocolate chips. While browsing the internet this chocolaty dessert caught my eye. The recipe contained a special method for arranging the ingredients which appealed to me. I made several adjustments with the ingredients, and tweaked their method, creating my own exclusive cookie. An alternative cookie title is below.
These cookies stay soft for more than a week, if they last that long, in a secured container, and will last several weeks in the freezer.
Wrapped chocolate nutella peanut butter cookie
Oven @ 350 yield: 3 dozen cookie
1 and 1/3rd cup flour 1 tsp. baking soda ½ tsp. salt ½ cup butter ½ cup sugar ½ cup brown sugar 1 large egg 1 tsp. vanilla 3-4 Tbsp. nutella— microwave for 5-10 seconds to soften 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips ½ cup nuts - your choice - optional
1. In a medium bowl mix the flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
2. In a large bowl or a stand mixer mix the butter, peanut butter, both sugars until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the egg, mix for 1 minute, then add the vanilla and mix until combined.
3. In three batches add in the flour, mixing on low or slowly by hand until well blended. Fold in chocolate chips.
4. Spread out two layers of parchment paper, one on top of the other. Shape the dough, on the parchment paper, in a flat 12" x 6" inch square, making sure the doughs thickness, about ¾ inch, is somewhat even throughout.
5. Drop 8-12 spoonfuls of the nutella randomly on the dough, then spread throughout with a knife, like you're icing a cake, but don't spread too thin. Leave small blobs in spots. 5. Occasionally let the nutella seep into the dough. Don't cut the parchment paper.
6. Chill everything, covered, for 3 hours or overnight.
7. Roughly slice hunks of dough to form balls, about 1- ½ inch. Wrap some of the nutella inside the ball, and dab some on the outside. Poke a nut meat on top, if using.
8. Place finished balls on a cookie sheet, covered with parchment paper.
9. Bake 7-10 minutes, until barely golden along edges.
10. Cool 3 minutes on cookie sheet, then remove to cooling rack, and leave untouched until completely cooled. Then bend one and devour, and then more and more.
Hello fellow cooks, gardeners, writers !
Barbecue sauces abound in cookbooks, on the internet, and I've tasted tons of yummy samples from family and friends. Some recipes were so, so, others ranked fairly high, but I still didn't find a sauce that hit my taste buds just right. I wanted to create something tangy, different, smooth but not overly, yet with a solid bite that could heighten the flavor of whatever it covered and soaked.
After forty-five years of cooking and baking I knew my way around the kitchen, but, an epicurean barbecue sauce eluded me. Of course I still had my file card from decades earlier with some simple ingredients: brown sugar, onion flakes, vinegar, oil, water. But now I was ready to forge ahead, create an auspicious sauce, one with maximum flavor to use over pork, beef, chicken.
One evening, thrilled with excitement, I combined the eleven ingredients below, cooked and stirred the pot on low for 10-15 minutes, then, after I cut away visible fat from the meat, poured the sauce over a four pound piece of pork shoulder and covered, left it to marinate overnight in the fridge and even half of the next day. I turned it several times while in the fridge.
Then, I cooked the meat, still drenched in the sauce, in the oven for five hours @ 250, covered. Half way through the cooking process I cut the meat away from the bone, sliced it in 1/2 inch thick slabs and continued to cook it, still covered. Once or twice I basted the meat, but then recovered it.
First I served the pork over plain rice (I'm a rice lover). The next night I spooned the tender pork pieces and sauce on a bun. Both ways the smooth and tangy taste rose to great heights, way above all expectation!
Try it, and share your opinions with me.
Best Ever Barbecue Sauce
1/2 cup ketchup
1/2 cup orange juice
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/8th cup soy sauce
1/8th cup Worcester sauce
1 small onion, grated
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tsp. fresh ginger, grated, or 1/2 tsp. dry ginger
1 tsp. celery seed
2 garlic cloves, pressed
1 tblsp. spicy mustard
Heat all ingredients in a small pot, simmer, uncovered on low for 10-15 minutes. Stir once or twice until well-blended. Store in refrigerator, and use over pork, chicken, beef. Marinade four hours or more and then cook in the oven for approximately 5 hours @ 250, covered. Baste several times during the process, and test for doneness around four hours.

We stayed in the back bedroom playing, all us young
folks, knowing to stay out the kitchen where grown-ups
scattered a round table, sharing what they'd all brung -
Spades played, High Life bottles galore, shared chaser cups
and shotglasses, bowls and powders passed; we stayed gone,
playing in the back bedroom, sneaking peeks when we
ran to the bathroom, out of sight sometimes 'til dawn;
the wild laughter would burst from where we couldn't see -
or were expected not supposed to; now and then
a most serious-faced mom of one or other
of us would come in, "y'all stay in here" warnings when
us knowing to stay gone won't enough - another
weekend growing up one hidden night at a time -
bunch of kids learning to laugh through dark paradigm.

|2015-2016 ACM-ICPC, NEERC, Southern Subregional Contest (Online Mirror, ACM-ICPC Rules, Teams Preferred)
Dasha decided to bake a big and tasty layer cake. In order to do that she went shopping and bought n rectangular cake layers. The length and the width of the i-th cake layer were ai and bi respectively, while the height of each cake layer was equal to one.
From a cooking book Dasha learned that a cake must have a form of a rectangular parallelepiped constructed from cake layers of the same sizes.
Dasha decided to bake the biggest possible cake from the bought cake layers (possibly, using only some of them). It means that she wants the volume of the cake to be as big as possible. To reach this goal, Dasha can cut rectangular pieces out of the bought cake layers. She always cuts cake layers in such a way that cutting lines are parallel to the edges of that cake layer. Dasha isn't very good at geometry, so after cutting out a piece from the original cake layer, she throws away the remaining part of it. Also she can rotate a cake layer in the horizontal plane (swap its width and length).
Dasha wants her cake to be constructed as a stack of cake layers of the same sizes. Each layer of the resulting cake should be made out of only one cake layer (the original one or cut out from the original cake layer).
Help Dasha to calculate the maximum possible volume of the cake she can bake using given cake layers.
The first line contains an integer n (1 ≤ n ≤ 4000) — the number of cake layers that Dasha can use.
Each of the following n lines contains two integer numbers ai and bi (1 ≤ ai, bi ≤ 106) — the length and the width of i-th cake layer respectively.
The first line of the output should contain the maximum volume of cake that can be baked using given layers.
The second line of the output should contain the length and the width of the resulting cake. If there are many solutions with maximum possible volume, print any of them.

100001 900000

In the first example Dasha doesn't use the second cake layer. She cuts 4 × 6 rectangle from the first cake layer and she uses other cake layers as is.
In the second example Dasha cuts off slightly from the both cake layers.

This small old tin once held Quentin's Breath of Violets as is embossed on the lid with the image of a winged cherub. These were apparently like Sen-Sen only perfumed with violet in flavor. I believe they were from the Chapman & Rodgers company of Philadelphia which was in operation during the late 1800's and early 1900's. The slip on lid also has a bead detail around the outer edge and at the bottom it reads; Trade Mark. There is nothing on the back side.
The empty tin measures about 1 7/8" in diameter and is in good condition with minimal dents and wear.
The pictures are not shown at actual size. Please refer to the description for actual measurements.

Clear your social calendar for October
The Florida Thoroughbred Breeders' and Owners' Association has announced the schedule for its annual Ocala Week. Activities begin with a presentation by The Jockey Club Information Systems delegation on Oct. 5 and conclude with the opening session of the Ocala Breeders' Sales fall mixed sale, which runs Oct. 9-13.
The Jockey Club seminar will be held at the Ocala Hilton Hotel. Registration begins at 11:30 a.m., followed by lunch. Topics for the seminar include The Jockey Club's equineline.com reports and portfolio service, horse farm management, and The Jockey Club's interactive program.
Those wishing to attend this co-sponsored Florida breeders and Jockey Club seminar should contact Nancy Chaffey (352) 237-3585 no later than Oct. 2.
* The Florida breeders will sponsor its 16th annual Charity Golf Classic at the Golden Hill Golf and Turf Club on Oct 6. This event is usually a sell-out.
Registration, at $125 per player or $450 per foursome, is at 7 a.m. for the 8 a.m. shotgun start and 11 a.m. for the 1 p.m. shotgun start. The format is a four-man scramble, and if you want to play and do not have a team the Florida breeders will assist in team formation; the same holds true for two players who need two more golfers to make up a team. Entries will close on Sept 29. Those interested in participating should contact Renee Downs at (352) 629-2160.
* The Florida breeders' annual membership meeting will be held at 10 a.m. Oct. 7 at Golden Hills Golf and Turf Club. Following a continental breakfast, the board of directors for 2006-2007 will be introduced.
The Florida breeders' nominating committee selected five members of the group to fill the five open slots on the board; thus, there is no need for balloting. They are incumbents Charlotte C. Weber of Live Oak Stud and Mark Roberts of Adena Springs South, along with Jessica Steinbrenner of Kinsman Stud, Eddie Martin of Martin Stables Inc., and Mike Mulligan of Leprechaun Racing Managemen, Inc.
Don Dizney, the president of the Florida breeders, will give his report on the state of the industry in Florida and what he sees down the road, including, no doubt, the impact of slot machine revenues on purses and breeders' awards.
Two guest speakers are scheduled. Dr. Paul Romanelli will talk about the growing relationship between Florida-breds and Italian racing. Johnathan Miller, president of the National Thoroughbred Retirement Program, will discuss the programs relevant to his organization.
* On Oct. 8, beginning at 6 p.m., the Florida breeders will entertain its membership and invited guests with a cocktail party at the Golden Ocala Golf and Equestrian Club. This is a new site for the party. Its location is on the southwest side of U.S. Highway 27, across from the Golden Hills Golf and Turf Club.
Live Oak wins three more stakes
Charlotte Weber's Live Oak Stud - racing under the name of Live Oak Plantation - had another big stakes weekend. The familiar white and red polka dot silks were conspicuous at Monmouth Park with the success of the two millionaire half-brothers, Revved Up and Miesque's Approval.
Revved Up won the Bob Harding Stakes and a short while later Miesque's Approval won the Grade 3 Red Bank. Miesque's Approval's victory in the Red Bank came at the expense of the graded stakes winner Hotstufanthensome, a 6-year-old gelded son of Awesome Again who was also bred by Live Oak Stud.
Meanwhile in Canada, the Live Oak homebred Hide and Seek added another stakes victory to her portfolio. A 4-year-old daughter of Seeking the Gold, Hide and Seek won the Grade 3, $144,260 Seaway Stakes at Woodbine. Thirteen months earlier, she had finished second in the Grade 1 Test at Saratoga.

Members of the West Unity Area Chamber of Commerce met on June 1 at 7:00 PM to make final preparations for the Gathering in West Unity held on June 5 and June 6. All members were present for the meeting.
Minutes of the May 4 meeting gained approval, which was followed by a report from Treasurer Pat Burkholder. It was reported that she had sent out 40 dues reminders and that 4 had been returned. The current balance of the Chamber's account at the time of the report was $1598.10 with approximately $0.39 in savings interest. It was also reported that an adjustment was made to the insurance cost and that insurance will now be $217.00 per month instead of $242.00. The report was approved as presented.
In relation to the Gathering, it was noted that rides have been approved for the 2016 event and that a place has been selected to set the rides up. President Al Bennett thanked the members who attended the meeting with the tractor club in this regard and who gave their input and support.
In regards to shopping for supplies for the Gathering, it was reported that the shopping trip resulted in 88.3 miles round trip. The board approved reimbursement of gas mileage. It was also noted that Brookview supplied the chickens and that MoJo's supplied the potato salad with the agreement to charge the same price as Brookview had quoted.
It was also noted that totes were purchased in order to store supplies due to a leak in the storage unit.
Larry Long took care of supplying ice, chairs, dinner rolls, and buns. Pat Burkholder filed the food license at a cost of $55.00. The town assisted with the placement of the picnic tables. A wood pellet grill rented from HalMark Rental at a cost of $125.00 was used this year.
A problem with the car show did occur this year as the ball diamond was not available due to new seeding. Rich and Kathy Merillat looked the park over and found an appropriate area for the year. It was noted that this may be the last year for the car show with the addition of rides in 2016. Alternative parking was stressed as something to be considered in upcoming years.
The next meeting of the West Unity Area Chamber of Commerce will be held Monday July 6 at 7:00 PM.

Squared Circle Magic - Big Matches & Big Surprises
Ok... So, where do I start? That's all I could think about when trying to write this blog. It's my first time writing one, so I didn't want this to end up like many of the firsts in my life. When the opportunity presented itself I thought "this is going to be easy, I've been watching wrestling almost my whole life, I got this", then it hit me, I might have the topic, but how do I write about wrestling? What do I say? How long should this be a couple of paragraphs or a few pages? And where do I start? So I decided to talk about a few of the big things that have happened from the Smackdown exclusive Hell in the Cell PPV.
The Uso's vs The New Day's Hell in a Cell match was one of the best tag team matches I've seen this year. I'm normally not a big fan of the Big E and Xavier Woods combo, but this time it worked out. I know that these teams have faced off against each other a few times over the past couple of months, but the good thing about their matches is that you can never tell the outcome. Both teams put on a show and one of the best spots happened when Big E and Woods trapped one of the Uso's in the cage with kendo sticks and then the Uso's returned the favor by handcuffing Woods and beating him senseless. For a second it seemed liked Woods and the New Day would mount a comeback, but it just wasn't in the stars. All in all I thought this was an awesome match and even though some of the jokes during the rivalry were a little stale, I enjoyed it overall.
Shane vs Kevin Owens is the other match that made the show. I listened to a few podcasts and read a few things talking about how people are upset that Shane is taking a spot from other talent on the roster and how he tries to get himself over. I am here to say I don't care! Most of the time he puts on a good match and this was a heck of a match against Owens. I am always amazed at how these guys willingly put their bodies on the line to entertain other people. Every step they took on top of that cage made me nervous. Owens and Shane fought on top of the cage for what seemed like forever until Shane managed to get Owens to fall through an announce table midway off of the cell. I thought it was over, and I was kind of bummed, because KO is one of my favorite wrestlers, and to lose like that at Hell in a Cell would be down right awful. To my surprise Shane wasn't done (I mean it is not a PPV with Shane in it that doesn't have a crazy top rope spot) he propped Owens onto another announcers table and claimed to the top of the cell. At this point I had no clue how Owens was going to get out of this one, but I knew the match was still going on for a reason. Shane jumped from the top of the cell and to mine, and everyone else's, surprise Sami Zayn of all people pulled KO away leaving Shane to crash 20 ft onto the table. Not only did he pull him away he placed Kevin's arm on top of Shane's Body for the 1-2-3. I was shocked at the ending, but I think that's what made me like the match the most. I'd just like to be in the same room with two grown ups discussing falling off of a 20 foot cage with straight faces, I think I just want to see it with my own two eyes.
Whoa, I think I wrote a lot more about both those matches than I wanted to so I'll make the rest of this thing short and sweet.
There's been in lot that has gone on this month in the WWE. Enzo is pretty much a one man show on 205 Live. His segments on MNR were golden, it just sucks for him that Neville reportedly walked out, and that he has to share mic time with Kalisto. For now though I am interested in what they are doing with Enzo and I hope they find a way to keep it fun.
I wonder if people the same way that I do and believe that The Miz is one of the best heels WWE has right now. Every time he's on the mic I wonder what ridiculous thing he's going to say next. The build up with The Miz and Roman Reigns (who, unlike most, I don't mind) was going well. You had them facing off for the IC title, and Reigns taking out Miz's entourage before the match started. The Miz and Roman went back and forth, and just when it looked like Roman was going to pick up the win out comes Sheamus and Cesaro to attack Roman and leave him laying. The end of Raw showed a beaten Roman in the locker room approached by his old buddies from the shield. Was anybody else wondering if they were back there the whole time what stopped them from helping?
The next few weeks the Shield came out like before kicking butt and taking names, and fired shots by saying they could pretty much beat up the entire locker room. After hearing that the Miz talked his way into having a 5 on 3 match at the TLC PPV with Kane and Strowman being his 4th and 5th team members. There was also another story line brewing between Finn Baylor and Bray Wyatt, prettying much pitting their alter egos "The Demon King" and "Sister Abigail" against one another. It seemed like an idea that could either be great, or fall flat on it's face, and with Bray Wyatt you never knew! The segments were cool featuring some cheesy effects to display both Baylor and Wyatt's other forms. It was all setting up to be an interesting PPV, but then the reports came out of an infection going around in the WWE locker room and some of the top superstars would not be able to compete Roman Reigns, and Bray Wyatt being 2 of the biggest names. The WWE however made a few quick changes, and now in place of Reigns, Kurt Angle would be making his return to a WWE ring for the first time in over a decade, and AJ Styles would replace Bray Wyatt.
After finding out that news I figure that the PPV would be a little bit of a let down, but I watched anyway because I've never seen AJ vs Finn, and I was kind of pumped for the return of Kurt. Honestly it was just ok. The match between AJ and Finn didn't really have any stakes, so it was hard to really get into it, but most of the match itself was decent. The main event was a little better and had a few spots that were awesome. The crowd was excited that Kurt was back and he put on a heck of a show. From the Shield entrance, to his return after being power slammed through a table, it was cool.
Also surprising was the Miz's team turning on Strowman and Kane putting him inside the garbage truck. I wonder what will happen with that next? I still wish that we would have gotten to see the actual Shield back together, but i realize that couldn't happen under the circumstances.
The next night on Raw was almost uneventful, Asuka debuted on Raw against Emma (she'll be missed), and there was talk of the up coming Survivor Series where Raw and Smackdown will face off in 2 traditional 10 person tag team matches. Kurt was interrupted by Shane (who is back and healthy for the first time in weeks since falling off the cell) and he tells Kurt that Smackdown will be the winners again. Later that night Kurt comes out to announce his teams when he is interrupted again by Shane, but this time Shane has a bunch of the members of the Smackdown locker room come out to with him, and he tells them to attack the Raw superstars. This made Raw worth watching. The Smackdown superstars beat up almost everyone they crossed paths with and by the end they made Kurt watch. I can't wait to see what MNR does in return, I hope they keep this is fun as they started it. I love a good invasion angle.
I know there's a lot more going on in the WWE. Jindar vs Brock, The Fashion Files, who's going to be the newest member of the Titus brand( we know for sure it isn't Darren Young), Sami and Kevin are true best friends, and much more. So how did i do for my first time? Did I write too much? because I feel like I wrote too much. I just want to Say thanks Chris and Bruce for the opportunity, and I hope everyone enjoyed this. I wish I had an empowering quote to leave you with, or at least something funny. I don't though so.....Bye

As the old saying goes..."nothing good comes from the public knowing that your company is for sale!"
As the old saying goes..."nothing good comes from the public knowing that your company is for sale!"
Vendors, customers, employees, your competition, etc. should be unaware of your intentions. If your customers learn that the business is for sale, they might go elsewhere on their own. If your vendors find out, they may change your credit terms or level of service to you. If employees learn of a sale they may leave to work in a more stable environment or begin to spread rumors about the "demise" of your company. If your competitors learn that the business is for sale they may raid your customer base, start rumors that you are going out of business, slash prices temporarily to attract your customers or start an aggressive advertising or marketing plan aimed at your customer base. Every seller wishes to complete the transaction privately and confidentially and announce the sale at the appropriate time.
So, it is pretty tricky to sell an asset that you can't really let anyone know is for sale.

@IngoArndtPhotography / The subspecies of brown bears found along the southern Alaskan coast are the largest of all brown bears. Males can weight over 1.000 pounds. They grow this big because of the rich food in their habitat. Sedge grass, lots of clams and of course salmon. The coastal brown bear in this picture catched a salmon one early morning. Only seconds later another bear was chasing him to get his fish. He ran away with the salmon in his mouth, in full speed exactly in my direction - what a perfect and exciting situation!

Hundreds of narwhals jockey for position to catch a breath of air during a massive feeding frenzy on polar cod. Since I was a kid growing up in the Canadian Arctic, I have always been fascinated by these true unicorns of the sea. It took eight years of going back year after year to the far Canadian Arctic to finally realize this moment.

Helping to move Office
Microsoft's Office 12 may be months away from official release, but the software giant has high hopes for the desktop space leader — as Steven Sinofsky reveals
|~|Sinofsky-5body.jpg|~|Microsoft had been planning to install XML into Office applications for some time, Steven Sinofsky revealed. |~|With still anything up to 11 months to go before Office 12 ships, it is already attracting considerable interest in the IT analyst community. This is perhaps not surprising: Microsoft still owns more than 90% of the enterprise desktop space, its software is used by millions of developers, and Office is one of the biggest contributors to its bottom line. Moreover, any delay in releasing Office 12 would be a severe blow to the software giant, which is facing increased competition on a range of fronts and has kept users waiting for an unusually long time for new releases of some of its most popular products, such as the latest version of Windows Vista, which like Office 12, is scheduled to ship at some stage in the second-half of this year. So looking after development for the Office family can safely be described as one of the big-gest jobs in software. IT Weekly speaks to the man that does it — Steven Sinofsky senior vice president, Office. Let's start off by asking what is going to be so exciting abo-ut Office 12, what is going to have people rushing to the shops to buy it? Well, that depends on who you are and what kind of things excite you. Let me tell you about a couple of things that we have talked about that people are already finding very, very, exciting. The first thing that we unveiled and displayed that has really been a big source of excitement is the new user interface for Office 12. This is a new way of interacting with the product, a new way of getting the full power and benefit of Office and it is really the first redefinition of the user experience of software since the invention of the Windows menus and toolbars. And does this make it easier to see the features of the Office suite? It makes it easier to see the features, and you feel much more in control of the program. So with the old way of working with Windows and menus and toolbars and stuff, you were constantly overwhelmed with things moving around, things changing. Basically our user interface had reached a point where it just couldn't scale anymore to the depth of the product. When we first added toolbars to Office, Word had 150 commands in it. Today, Office itself has about 3500 commands throughout the whole product and with the user interface there's just no room left, you have menus that are too long, bars that are to the side and things like that. What we did was we took a step back and thought about how you would first organise the tools and then how could you display them so that it's not hide-and-seek, you're not searching for the tools, they're just there when you need them. That's when we came up with this metaphor that we call the ribbon, which is a fixed-size user interface. This user experience is so much easier to use because the whole product is in front of you for the first time, so you don't have to think about where something might be or learn new words that you might not understand because that is the name of the command. Things are just in the right place at the right time, so when you first start up Office 12, the commands that represent 80% of the clicks that people use are all right there in front of you. Getting access to everything else is always just one click away. What benefits will this interface bring to users? One area that has really benefited from this new interface is graphics. With the advent of colour printers everywhere, richer PowerPoint presentations and so on, now it is just so much easier to get to the rich graphics capability that is in Office. Plus, we've improved it dramatically, so we've added 3D effects, shading, its just much much easier to make cool looking documents. It's a radical new definition of the way that your work products will appear and that is because of the new interface. So that's probably the first area we would highlight and that one is going to apply to everyone who uses the product. Even if you're an IT pro, IT administrator or system administrator, this just puts out there a product that is easier to use, easier to maintain and easier to get more out of. So, fewer helpdesk calls, less administration and just a more robust experience for the internals of the corporation. Another area that we have talked a great deal about is enterprise content management. This is really about running portal sites for your company inside your intranet or outside your extranet. Its about being able to do sites where you publish lots of information, being able to do web services where you bring together your line of business information and bring it up so that you can present that to your employees or your partners. Isn't offering this type of functionality going to bring you into conflict with the business intelligence (BI) vendors? I don't think it will be a conflict at all. What it will do is show different approaches to the market. We're very focused on the end user experience, having the most number of people being exposed to Excel, what we're doing is making the features they use a little bit more robust. All of these features use as their basis the XML file format in Excel. One of the things we've talked quite a lot about is the role of XML in Office 12. The BI vendors all have access to that XML file format, so it is a big opportunity for those partners to do some of the same things that we have done as well. Okay, lets move away from business intelligence and talk about another area that has got a lot of attention for Microsoft and that is the push towards introducing standards around XML for Office. How important a move is this for Microsoft? I think it is an important move for us, it's one that we have been planning to do for quite some time. We've been working on XML in our Office applications way back since Office 2000. Office 12 really represents what was our long term goal of having a full, high-fidelity round trip-compatible format that will bring forward all the investme- nts that people have made in Office over the years but also delivers on a robust, maintainable, documented format for Office applications. So we're really excited about bringing this to market. Part of our plan all along was to publish this in open standard, it doesn't even have a licence, you just go to the web site and download it and use it all you want. Just to be safe we have also submitted this to an open standards body and are working with partners such as Hewlett-Pac- kard and Apple, who are members of this body, to make this standards-based approach as well.||**|||~|Sinofsky-6body.jpg|~|Sinofsky acknowledged the fact that Microsoft's own installed base, users with older versions of their products, was the largest threat to Office 12. |~|While Office has been in a strong position for years, many people are now saying that the competitor products are stronger than ever. How competitive is the office productivity space right now? I've been working on Office for about 12 years now. I signed the release papers for Office 4.2d, which was the last 16-bit version of Office. I've got to say that at every release I always feel like the competition is greater. It just changes. Way back we were in really strong and competitive situations for individual products like word processors and spreadsheets, then we got very strong competitors in the suite market, then for a while in the 1999-2000 time frame, our competitors were all these web things that were going to put us out of business, like little downloadable Java programs and things like that. Then StarOffice, which was a German company, became a big competitor. So there is always lots of competition, there's plenty of room for lots of people, in some countries we have competitors who only sell products in one country or one language. I think there is plenty of competition and they're always approaching it from a different angle. Customers have consistently shown they think we're doing a good job in delivering value to them and I hope that in Office 12 they see our ongoing investment at a very unique level in productivity software. Of course, plenty of people say that the biggest competitor to Office is your own installed base. Do you think that is the case? By far and large there is no doubt that the biggest competitor we face the most is old versions of our products. Software is a wonderful thing, it doesn't ever wear out, you can use it 10 minutes a day or 12 hours a day, it doesn't wear out and we do a pretty good job of servicing the product. The service packs that we do for Office fix hundreds of real-world customer problems and make it better. So we have to do a better job of showing people that there are things that you can do with the new product that you couldn't do with the old product. I think we've done a great job on that with Office 12. We're showing a lot of things that you can do. Our installed base is a huge asset for us, the thing that we work really hard on is bringing forward the investments they have made in the product, and making it a smooth and easy upgrade so you can realise the benefit at a small incremental cost on top of your existing infrastructure. At the same time, it's much more than just more features in a word processor or a spreadsheet. That's really been the big investment areas for us — to expand things to include, not just client applications which is what most of our competitors do, but including things like servers and services to ensure that you have a really deep and rich productivity experience. Another area that has received a lot of attention is online services. Microsoft made a couple of big announcements in this area last year, can you give a bit more detail on this? We have announced an initiative around what we call Live software. Live is the name that we are giving to a large set of services that run at internet scale. What they are all about is services that add value to both Windows and Office and to other products that we sell. We have announced two offerings: Windows Live, which is in beta, and you'l l see from that integrated messaging and a customisable platform. In the second,Office Live, we are going to introduce software that is going to be a great companion to Office for small businesses. That's our primary focus early on. We have shown how small businesses will be able to have a web site that has their domain name and e-mail, and site hosting that also includes a number of templates tailored to the small business market. That will be in beta soon as well. Whenever we announce something we always think it is a big announcement and want to ma- ke a big push, so it is hard to measure that but we're very excited by the idea of having services that are companions to the products that we sell. Some of those services will be advertiser supported, some will be based on subscriptions, but they're building on services that we run on an immense scale today for customers. For instance, hundreds of millions of our customers around the world receive their PC administration, patches and so on from Microsoft Update on a daily basis. The Office web site, Microsoft Office Online, has over 60 million unique visitors each month and that is a web site that on its own would be a big property. Plenty of people were quick to say that your focus on online services was a way of countering the threat posed by Google, how would you answer that? I don't tend to look at it as a threat. Google has been very successful in the recorded search business, we of course have MSN which competes in that area as well. We're just looking at things in a very holistic view, we're looking at what we can do to improve people's productivity experience and how we can use the internet to do that. We've been doing that for a long time, long before Google. We've had Office Online since 1997 at least. So I don't think of this as a threat, we're just looking at using all of the technologies and all of the business models available to us: advertising, subscription, buying packaged software to deliver what customers really want from us. Well, there has been the much-publicised court battle with Google, Steve Ballmer's alleged chair throwing incident, Bill Gates has commented on Google repeatedly, there certainly seems a sense that Google is getting a lot of senior management attention for a company you don't see as a threat. I don't see it as a threat, I just see it as competition. They offer a product that is very successful that competes with MSN and we just have to do a better job, we haven't done as much as we could do and I think we could execute better and that's where we're really focused. Certainly, I think the press has done a good job of giving a lot of attention to Google. ||**||

Advisory Services
Consultants need advice too. We've worked with best of breed firms of all sizes for years, guiding them through the tough decisions that are often avoided in the day to day rush to "just get the work done".
Growing a business is about more than selling billable time or moving from project to project.

We are proud to have created the first Enhanced-CD in Italia in partnership with the Pooh, way back in 1996. Over and above standard track-by-track musical content, this CD entitled Amici per sempre (Friends forever) contained multimedia content alongside the music that could be visualized on any CD-ready computer. It was a bold and innovative move to make on a triple-platinum album, introducing the concept of multimedia entertainment to the public at large.

This quote is from way before Panda and Penguin appeared on the scene. See, Google has been saying forever that buying links was just… wrong. But they didn't enforce it, so no-one paid any attention.Google recently figured out HOW to detect paid links and started enforcing their long standing rule, and a lot of SEOs are screaming foul. Why? Because change is something to be feared, even if you've been told the change is coming for years.
Natural links are the cornerstone of good SEO, right next to content. Without solid linking practices, you site will flounder and fail; and eventually Google will boot you to the curb.
Start panning for an organic link-building campaign and see results start to come your way. Otherwise, keep paying for links and see your short term results get even shorter and eventually result in penalties from the almighty GOOG.

Last week I discussed the details of Brand Architecture. Before I talk about further evaluating a Brand Architecture, I wanted to explore the Brand Assessment. The data gained from researching and evaluating your brand in an assessment is a key requirement before considering any future change in your Brand Architecture. If you don't know anything about your brand in the marketplace, you cannot make any intelligent decisions about it's direction in the future.
There are two key parts to a Brand Assessment: the Brand Essence and the Brand Communication.
When reviewing your Brand Essence it is important to determine:
- Awareness: Are you known in the marketplace?
- Favorability: How do people feel about you?
- Function: What benefits do you provide your customers?
- Key Driver: What prompts consumers to engage with you?
- Support: What "backs up" your key function in the marketplace?
- Differentiation: What distinguishes you in the marketplace from everyone else?
- Personality: What compelling attributes define you?
- Quality: What is the quality of your brand in the marketplace?
- Messaging: What messages are the most compelling to your current and potential customers?
- Name: How effective is your current name in the marketplace?
- Logo: How effective is your current logo in the marketplace?

Spiritual and Church growth happens from the inside out.
In the last few months we have put an increased emphasis on prayer at FCC and almost immediately the spiritual atmosphere of the Church was changed. We have a small group that's get together on Sunday morning and prays for the service. The effect of them getting together and praying for the service produced an increased level of anointing during the services.
On Fridays which was supposed to be our prayer service we spent more time teaching and talking about prayer than actually praying. So this month we decided to change the direction to focusing on praying and allow the Holy Spirit to lead us on when to hit on teaching points. More prayer produced more power during our services.
So I would say in general that our services have become less scripted and since we are praying corporately more and more the anointing level has increased dramatically. There has also be an increase in the manifestation of the gifts of the Spirit.

Spend 30 minutes on these simple maintenance steps to keep your fridge running in tip top shape. It's hard to believe, but six simple maintenance steps will prevent almost 100 percent of refrigerator breakdowns and eliminate those service calls. Take these steps and you can forget about spoiled food, lost time waiting for repair people and shelling out $70 an hour plus parts for the repair itself. In this story, we'll show you how to keep your fridge humming and trouble-free. And we'll also tell you what to check if a problem does occur.

Fix a Wobbly Ceiling Fan
Ceiling fans often wobble for reasons other than balance. Although a slight wobble (1/8 in. on high) is normal, anything more than that is annoying and potentially dangerous. Troubleshoot and fix your ceiling fan with this guide.
95 / 103
Sizing a Ceiling Fan
Ceiling fans can save energy and money for heating and cooling. A quick rule of thumb for sizing them matches the diameter of the fan with the largest dimension of a room. For 12 ft. or less, use a 36-in. fan. For 12 to 16 ft., use a 48-in. fan. For 16 to 18 ft., use a 52-in. fan. And for dimensions larger than 18 ft., install two fans.
Placement of a ceiling fan for adequate air circulation is 7 ft. above the floor with the blades 8 to 10 in. from the ceiling. And to move more air at low speed, a fan with five blades is best.
Regarding energy savings, research has proven that ceiling fans can save energy during the cooling season by creating a gentle breeze. You get your savings then by raising your thermostat by a minimum of 2 degrees. This decreases air conditioning energy used by 10 to 15 percent, or 5 to 8 percent per degree. By reversing your fan (so it runs clockwise) during winter, you pull heat from the ceiling and push it down to the floor for more even heat.

Grade A availability in the city centre remains constrained at 180,000 sq ft, which accounts for just 1% of the City's total available office space and represents less than two year's supply.
A number of grade A deals are currently under offer, which will reduce this figure even further . Only Cuprum at Argyle Street is able to provide over 50,000 sq ft of space.
Refurbished grade B stock in the city centre currently stands at around 550,000 sq ft. There will be high demand for this space until new development completes in mid to late 2015.
Total out of town supply in Lanarkshire currently stands at around 1.8 m sq ft, with Maxim Business Park accounting for around 36% of this figure.
For a breakdown of Q3 2013 office supply by grade, please click here or on Chart 2 to the left of this article.
Prime rents within Glasgow city centre remain unchanged and vary significantly from £22.00-£28.50 per sq ft. It is understood the letting at Capella was done at around £25 per sq ft.
Rental levels for second hand grade A / refurbished grade B is between £17.00 and £22.00 per sq ft with 151 St. Vincent Street remaining the exception at £25.00 per sq ft quoting.
Out of town prime rents range from £15.00 – £22.00 per sq ft.

EFD.Pro is the only fully embedded Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) tool forPro/ENGINEER Wildfire. As a Pro/TOOLKIT application, EFD.Pro enables mechanical design engineers to analyze and optimize complex fluid flow and heat transfer effects on their designs directly inside Pro/ENGINEER.
Everyone is fully aware of how quickly you can conduct Finite Element Analysis (FEA) with Pro/ENGINEER Mechanica; however, if your designs involve both fluid and thermal interaction, you may not have all the necessary information you need in order to set-up your model for analysis. These loads in most cases are due to complex thermal or fluid flow phenomena which you either do not have or may receive very late in the design process.
With EFD2MECH, an optional module for EFD.Pro, you now have the option to accurately investigate stresses and deformations due to flow and heat transfer induced loads at the push of a button. EFD2MECH significantly reduces the amount of time necessary for preparing analysis models by ensuring timely access to needed data. It should also be noted that with the addition of EFD2MECH, EFD.Pro does not replace Pro/ENGINEER Mechanica functionality but rather complements its current thermal analysis capabilities with advanced analyses such as radiation.
EFD.Pro has the same "look and feel" as Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire so you are not forced to learn a new interface simply to use the software. And unlike other CFD programs, EFD.Pro interacts directly with the native 3D CAD data defined by Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire – with no translation or copies - in order to keep pace with on-going design changes.
7 Key Technologies distinguish EFD.Pro from traditional CFD software, making it easier to use, more robust, and more accurate. Its sophisticated physical models can simulate a wide range of engineering tasks across a wide range of industries such as aerospace, automotive, medical devices, industrial machinery and pumps/ valves.
EFD.Pro has been used by Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire users around the world to
Improve product performance, functionality and reliability
Reduce physical prototyping as well as production costs
Minimize risk of making design mistakes
In short, if you use Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire, you ought to take a closer look at EFD.Pro – the only fluid flow and heat transfer simulation tool that fits into your design process without requiring you to change the way you design products.
Setting New Standards
For analysis to become an integral part of the design process, it must be not only easy to use but also adapt readily to your design process.
Because EFD.Pro is developed by engineers for engineers, it is perhaps the easiest-to-use CFD package commercially available today. Its interface is extremely intuitive and its powerful Wizard guides you through the analysis process. It also contains powerful functionalities to help streamline the analysis process. Once you have analyzed your problem, viewing the results is a matter of point-and-click: simply choose the appropriate options from a menu and the system will quickly generate your desired plots. You can even create and distribute your animated results and quickly generate reports in Microsoft ® Excel and Word including all your favorite plots.
But EFD.Pro takes ease-of-use one step further by fitting into your design environment effortlessly. As a Pro/TOOLKIT application, EFD.Pro sits inside Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire and has the same look and feel as Pro/ENGINEER. Therefore, you don't need to learn a whole new interface just to use analysis. With EFD.Pro, you simply expand the range of Pro/ENGINEER capabilities to include analysis!

My Track of the Day today is Return to the Moon by El Vy, another track which I first heard on WKNU. As a fan of The National, I'm a big fan of Matt Berninger's vocals. I must admit I've never heard of Brent Knopf, the other half of El Vy, but I have to say I just love this track!
I have to confess that one of the reasons for liking this song so much is that it contains a couple of references to Cincinnati, my new home town!
And have I ever told you….
Yes, I've seen The National a couple of times, once in Atlanta, when they headlined The Shaky Knees Festival and then more recently, here in Cincinnati as part of the MusicNow weekend. That was one great night, hearing The National play with the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra in the Cincinnati Music Hall.
Anyway, here's Return to the Moon
